A Piece of Mine
A/N: After watching S10: Epi 21 and then rewatching S10: Epi 4. A thought came to me, how would Dante's girlfriend react to seeing his unbounded rage?
The car ride home was quiet. I gazed at the images out of the passenger side window that was blurred by the rain. Was I overreacting? I’ve never seen him enraged like this before and it unleashed a hurricane in my head that he doesn’t know about, whose name I haven’t thought about until this moment. Dante’s stoicism, his gentle voice, his shyness, his vulnerability, his pensive stares, it all endeared me to him. But was all of that a facade to counter the rage that lived beneath the surface of his being? Was my judgment clouded because of it? I should've seen it, why didn't I see it? I’ve been here before, but this was not then, Dante is the complete opposite of him, or is he? 
"Babe, let me explain." His voice pulled me from my melancholy reverie. He reached out and rested his hand on my knee. 
I instinctively pushed his hand away, “don’t touch me.”
The acid in my voice caught us both off guard, I felt him stiffen next to me and my anger rushed forth like a tsunami wave because how dare he flinch when I just saw him bring a man twice his size down to his knees, hands in prayer as if Dante was his God begging for mercy. How dare he!
“Everything was a lie.”
“I never lied to you.”
“How did I miss this? How could I have been so stupid?”
“Babe, please.”
“You never get angry, you don’t raise your voice, not once when most people react, you just…I shrugged and trailed off. “How can someone as shy as you have this level of rage inside of them?”
He pointed at himself, “I never said I was shy, you assumed that because of my quiet nature. I’m a guy, all guys have different levels of aggression, it all comes down to how you choose to deal with that pent up anger. The gym, boxing is the way I release most of that energy and you are never around to see it, so I understand why you’re reacting like this.”
I scoffed, “you can’t possibly understand how I feel. Have you ever killed anyone with your bare hands?”
His fingers tightened on the steering wheel, “anyone can kill another with their bare hands.”
“I’m not talking about anyone, Dante, I’m talking about you? Have you killed a man with your bare hands?”
He looked at his hands for a beat, his eyes flashed over to me piercing my own before they turned back to the road. His expressive eyes spoke sentences, but his lips replied with one word. “No.”
“But you could?”
“Any cop can, anyone in law enforcement can, man or woman.”
“Again with the deflecting.”
I gazed out the window watching his reflection as the car stopped and he turned off the engine. He closed his eyes and rolled his neck to the right,  the way he does when he becomes exasperated, then to his left; he opened his eyes and exhaled. He turned to me and unhooked my seatbelt. I opened the car door, stepping out before he had the chance to open his door and get to my door. He hated when I opened my own door and I slammed it shut knowing it would add to his exasperation that was building. 
I didn’t have the key, so I waited as he opened the door to our apartment. I stepped in front of him, kicked off my shoes and continued down the hall, feeling his presence behind me as he followed me into the bedroom. 
“You want the truth?”
“Yes.”
I had my back to him, he spun me around and took a step forward into my personal space and before my brain could relay the action to my body, he spoke, coolly “don’t move.” With his dark eyes fixed on my face, I felt the energy in the air shift as the heat from his body coalesced with the cold chill that escaped my core and scraped across my spine. 
I could taste the peppermint scent emitting from his lips, I felt myself sway hypnotically, one kiss would end this argument. 
“Are you afraid of me?” My breath hitched, my internal goddess hissed, yesssss. I shook my head. His lips brushed against my ear and I shivered, “I need to hear you say it. Remember, use your words.”
Those three words transported me to another time, our first time where he held me under a similar trance that I was unprepared for, where my body no longer belonged to me, but to him. 
I found my words hidden behind my ribcage. “No.”
“No, what?”
The air became thick.
My body hummed. 
“No, I’m not afraid of you.”
“Good.” He wrapped his hand around my neck and his thumb pressed lightly against my jugular, feeling my pulse hammer jacking against the pad of his thumb. “Yes, I can kill a man with my bare hands. When I was younger, I had this rage within me, an anger that made me lash out at any and everyone who looked at me the wrong way. Growing up the way I did, you never knew who would do you harm, so I had my guard up all the time and then I went to juvie.” He nudged my chin with his hand, “look at me.” I gazed at him, the green edges of his hazel eyes softened, “the rage you say you see is not the same rage that had a hold on me then. What you saw was rage controlled, I control it, it doesn’t control me. My psych eval says I’m nonreactive, which is true for the most part. There are situations like the one you saw tonight where I come close to the edge, but I will never step over. Now if someone did something to you or my mama,” he shrugs, “then who knows.” He dropped his hand to his side, “but, these are not the hands of a killer, these are the hands of your Danty, I’m the same man you met when you clumsily fell into my arms.” 
I laughed and he laughed as we both remembered that moment, the mood in the air shifted, the energy was still charged but it swung to the opposite direction.
This time I reached for him first, lifting his shirt and pulling the buckle to his belt. “I’m sorry for overreacting.”
His fingers trailed upwards under my dress, pulling my panties down to my ankle, he knelt down on his knees and lifted my leg over his shoulder, tossing my underwear across the room. He kissed my thigh, the warmth filled my apex. “Am I forgiven?”
I nodded. My eyes closed giving in to the sensation of his stubble against my inner thigh, his kisses stopped and my eyes flew open to find him staring up at me, “use your words.” 
“Yes, you are forgiven.” I said aloud.
He didn't have to speak his hazel eyes with the green edges became liquid gold, his fingers pushed against my opening and my warmth trickled onto his fingers. I moaned, grabbing his head. He lifted me up onto the edge of our bed, while he remained kneeled on the floor, his hands firmly pinned my wrists to my side, while his head was bowed at my altar.
“Dante, I screamed.
I could feel him smiling and I heard his voice in my head before he spoke.
“Use your words, baby.”  
Post note: Dante's character is a fun one to explore. Not guaranteed that I'll write more fics, but this was fun to write....

i hope you all understand that the bond between house and chase gives me near-lethal, irreversible, incomprehensible mental illness. i just rewatched 8x12 "chase" and it actually left me shaking
the only other time house has made this many excuses (fewer actually) to check up on a duckling has been with thirteen. and we all know they're like this 🤞
literally this whole episode is just house going "i give a shit i give so many shits are you ok are you mad at me" *3487 phone calls*
also chase being absolutely fatherless accuses house of wanting everyone to be like him but my god it's house with the steel chair, the BIGGEST dad move possible, what was essentially "please don't turn into me." a vulnerable, honest plea. no deflection, rationalization, or making this about himself... uno reverse card of all time. sobbing throwing up etc
"you reassess your life when you've made mistakes. you didn't. you just got stabbed." the way house's voice got so soft during the last sentence... cue that cameron line from season 3 "he almost looks like he's... caring." hugh laurie makes me want to eat glass

man. it is really funny when people say "ohhhh taylor swift can't fly commercial there will be too much chaos and attention :( it's just not possible" Yes She Fucking Can.
one of my parents has been working as a security screening officer at an international airport for the past 20+ years and you know what they do when celebrities (with a fanbase 2x or 3x the size of her own) show up for commercial flights? they go about business as usual.
yes there are a handful of people that ooh and ahh and yes some want autographs, but most of the time people are just trying to keep things moving and are too preoccupied with catching their own flight and simply aren't interested in getting arrested for harassing a celebrity. and, let's be honest, i'm sure taylor is old enough to take care of herself and know when someone is bothering her too much.
she has literally no excuse. she does not need a private jet that coughs up pollution that's worth a small country. get a grip.

♡ Underrated bands! ♡
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
🎀 Snow White's Poison Bite Favourite songs: Serial Killer Girl, Will You Meet Me In The Graveyard, Valentine's Doom
This band is so good that I actually couldn't believe that they only had 30,000 monthly listeners when I first found them. They're a horror punk band with all of the aesthetics of an emo band but combined with some horror aspects too. It's really sad that they're disbanded because they were a really good and unique band. I think they're a great band to check out if you like Get Scared, Ice Nine Kills, Misfits, or Motionless In White.
🎀 Make Me Famous Favourite songs: Blind Date 101, Inception, It's Now Or Never, Make It Precious
Make Me Famous was a Ukrainian metalcore band that was formed by Denis Stoff, who was also Asking Alexandria's lead singer in 2016. I know a lot of people didn't like them because they thought the band was copying Asking Alexandria, but I really love their music and I hate that Denis's greed made them break up. If you like metalcore, specifically Asking Alexandria, then they're a great band to check out.
🎀 The Birthday Massacre Favourite songs: Looking Glass, Alibis, Happy Birthday, Lovers End, Remember Me
I know they're probably the best known band here, but they're just so good that I had to include them here. I was first drawn to them by their aesthetic and the fact that they're a female fronted band, but then I ended up really liking their music too. They're a great band for if you love the mall goth aesthetic but don't want to listen to something very heavy. I also just really love Chibi as you can probably tell. If you like Evanescence, New Years Day, or The Pretty Reckless, then I'd definitely recommend checking them out. I also just realised that they're the only band in this post that's still together.
🎀 The Black Box Recorder Favourite songs: Child Psychology, Ideal Home, Kidnapping an Heiress
Their song Child Psychology is pretty popular, but I don't think their other songs get as much attention as they should, which really sucks because they're a really good band I love how bleak and depressing their lyrics are and how Sarah's accent bleeds into her singing. If you like Ethel Cain, Fiona Apple, or Lana Del Rey, I'd highly recommend them.
🎀 The Young Veins
Favourite songs: Dangerous Blues, Cape Town, Nothing Matters But You
I know a lot of people know about TYV because of Panic! at the Disco, but I feel like they don't get enough recognition aside from being 'Ryan Ross's band.' They're lyrics and music and everything are just incredible, as is expected for a band with Ryan Ross, and I wish they were still together because Jon and Ryan are both so talented.

there's a point to me saying that i am not a good person. that i am damaged and unlikeable and insane and toxic. that i did absolutely terrible shit to a lot of people.
and every time people deny it, i wonder why, because it's true.
but also every time people deny it, it hurts like hell.
i want someone to finally see me. i want someone to stop trying to make me feel better about it by denying it. because that's the absolute truth. and you denying it makes me feel like shit.
i want someone to finally see me for me and love me even if i am broken or evil or whatever.
because i am so done with people in denial. because the person who keeps telling me all these things, that i am smart, that i am sane, that i am kind, that i am beautiful, that i am strong, that i am good, no, more than good, actually "perfect"... that person fucking makes me vomit in my mouth. how can he claim to know me and love me "despite everything" if he won't even accept who i actually am? if he doesn't know a thing about me?

WHAT IF SOME VAMPIRE BITES CONTAINED VENOM??? Like what if those large ass fangs store poisonous magic that could literally kill someone depending on how much they use.
-THE VENOM IS USED AS A TORTURE METHOD- and it can physically show it spreading throughout the veins in a persons neck (or wherever they were bit)- the veins turning a dark purple or even black depending on how much venom was used.
Now imagine Quinn using a little bit of this venom on Darlin just to watch them collapse and writhe in pain below him, smiling and teasing them on how ridiculous they looked. OR -Alexis biting Sweetheart (I hc that cannon Alexis works with Quinn) keeping them on the verge of death from the amount of venom used, and leaving their shivering whimpering form for the pack to find- preferably Milo <3.

TAKE A PEEK: SIN DANYI AT FANSIGNS !! | [ENHYPEN 8TH MEMBER]
✧ SEATING POSITION:
Somehow she always ends up between Heeseung and Jay or Jungwon and Sunoo. Is usually in the first few seats in the lineup that Engenes would greet.
___
✦ HER MOST ASKED QUESTIONS:
"Are there any genres or styles of music you'd like to explore in the future?"
"Any upcoming projects or collaborations that you're excited about?"
"Do you have a favorite track from your discography?"
"What inspired you to write [SONG NAME]?"
"Who's your bias in Enhypen/[GROUP NAME]?"
"What's a good song recommendation?"
"Is there a specific artist you would love to collaborate with in the future?"
___
✧ MOST PROMINENT GIFTS:
Glasses!
Heartfelt Letters ♡♡
Foreign Foods/Drinks!! [Her favorite gifts to get if she had to choose]
Funny little headbands; usually it's animal-related.
Photocards of groups she's said she likes.
She will refuse to take them but Engenes are insistent.
She's gotten a lot more face chains and jewelry in the last few comebacks.
A few Engenes have given her games for her Nintendo Switch or other gaming consoles
Another item she will refuse or jokingly pout at but will accept and she promises to post whenever she plays them!
___
✦ HER DEDICATED FAN CAMERA:
Best believe she will spot them in any crowd no matter the size. Always points to herself first to make sure they're filming or taking pictures of her. Might try and pull whoever is next to her into a photo or two. Likes playing jokes or jokingly refuses to do some poses but will do them anyway.
___
✧ INTERACTIONS WITH ENGENES:
⚬ THOSE GREETING HER: It's like reuniting with a childhood friend! Absolutely lives for fans who tell her about their lives and any gossip or tea that is happening. The vibe is increased tenfold about that when she's next to Sunoo; they are known as a gossip duo. Is fully willing to do fan service but does draw the line with some actions that would make her uncomfortable. When given gifts she jokingly hoards them so the staff won't take them. If she's been given food or any drinks she will offer some to the Engenes who greet her throughout the day. On occasion, it will be something she doesn't like or has things she is allergic to but she doesn't want them to go to waste so she gives them to those who would enjoy them! Makes sure to spot the Engenes who give her accessories to wear so they can take their pictures of her wearing them!
⚬ THOSE IN QUEUE WAITING: When she has gaps between Engenes she'll write on pieces of paper and show them. Usually, it will be the typical questions of if they've had anything to eat or drink, or if they were hot where they were waiting. Other times it will be fun little 'ice-breaker' questions. If she looks in the crowd and sees signs or fans holding their phones toward her after confirming they're filming her so she doesn't feel stupid she'll do a few little poses or write back answers on blank paper if it's nearby. Does lil games of rock, paper, scissors or cham cham cham!

apparently samantha shannon tweeted once that there's no sexual assault in priory and I'm like 😐 uhhhh do we need to have a significant conversation here orrrr
like look I'm not throwing in with some of these people who are like "if roots of chaos is so queernorm and progressive why are the queens of inys still walking wombs, that's Problematic" bc like ... yeah babe that's the point!! the crown gives you power but it's all a poisoned shackle that will drain you of everything and your descendants too!! and all related media literacy issues. but what happened to galian was very much sexual assault and a massive violation of his body and his autonomy and his consent. I'm not like a galian berethnet stan but dammit I can have empathy for other survivors
