DP x MCU crossover
Sometime after Howard and Maria Stark’s death, Hydra decides to try and make a clone of Tony Stark, that’s infused with Super Soldier serum. They were hoping to get a super smart super soldier that they could control.
And thus Danny was born.
At some point when he’s like 2 or 3 one of the Hydra agents whose been his handler since he was born grows a conscious after witnessing the most recent experiment the other scientists in the lab put Danny through. They take Danny and run away from the lab. They don’t get away clean tho, they had to fight their way out of the lab and they were injured in the process. They wind up in Amity Park with baby Danny and come across the Fenton Parents. They hand Danny over to them and tell them to protect and look after the kid. And then they die.
The Fenton parents adopt Danny and raise him as their own. Danny grows up not knowing he’s adopted or that he’s a clone and a super soldier. The ghost portal accident happens when he’s 14 like cannon. The reason he survived and only half died is because of the super soldier serum in his blood.
Eventually, after the whole events of the Danny Phantom series has passed (minus Phantom Planet because fuck that horrible ending to the series). Danny, after defeating Pariah Dark, is now the king of the ghost zone. He still doesn’t realize he’s a clone of Tony Stark. Despite the fact that he looks exactly like a 17 year old version of the man!!!
And then New York happens. A portal opens up in the skies above New York, and aliens come pouring out of it! You bet your ass Danny hightailed it over to New York to help out the group of heroes that were trying to stop the aliens. He’s super hyped to fight aliens!!! He’s just having a blast zooming through the skies of New York, around skyscrapers, throwing punches and ecto-blasts at aliens, helping out the other heroes.
Meanwhile every time he helps one of the Avengers they all double take when they finally get a look at his face. Cause like yes this floating glowing child has glowing green eyes and Snow White hair, but the rest of his face looks like a very young Tony Stark. After each encounter with the boy the different Avengers call Tony over the coms to ask his status and to reassure themselves that Tony hadn’t been de-aged and given super powers mid battle.
Tony is the last one of them that meets Danny. He’s super annoyed at the fact everyone keeps calling him over the coms to ask his status. Like yeah he’s not a super soldier and doesn’t have powers, but neither does Romanoff or Barton!!! And unlike them he has his own super suit to protect him. So why is everyone calling in to check on him?!!!
And then finally Danny comes zooming around a building chasing after Loki’s chariot, shouting sarcastic quips at the god, while firing green blasts from his fists. And Tony just kind of blue screens for a minute. Jarvis has to take over piloting the suit for a minute while Tony reboots. He’s def got the surprised Pikachu face going on. Finally he reboots but Danny’s already flown off to deal with something else.
The battle comes to an end, the portal closes, the world is safe, and all the Avengers all head towards Stark tower. Danny sees them and where they’re headed and decides to meet them there. He’s been the only super hero around for a while and he wants to actually properly interact with these new hero’s!
Imagine his shock when he actually finally comes face to face with Tony Stark and finally realizes how much he looks like the man. He starts panicking thinking his mom had an affair with the man 17 years ago and just passed him off as Jack Fenton’s son.
Absolute chaos ensues as assumptions are made. DNA tests happen. They realize that no he is not Tony’s kid, he’s Tony’s clone. More assumptions are made. No body is having a good time.

You turn and twirl, humming a tune in your bedroom, your gorgeous dress pressed against your body to observe it in the mirror. Tonight there is a ball at the Mitth’s hotel particulier.  
A masked ball. 
You're quite excited. 
You lay your red and golden dress down on your bed and open your drawer to pass your collection of lipstick in review.  
You have a ton.  
All presents from the same person. The same one who selected your dress. 
You pick a tube, review the color and choose another one. 
More bold, more flashy, more… insolent! 
A delectable shade of deep, eye-catching red that compliments your skin tone deliciously. You almost only have reds. 
It is the Mitth color with gold and he wouldn’t want you to wear anything else. You apply the pigment and you smack your lips in a sounding ‘pop’. This shade is so gorgeous. Especially on you. 
Will he compliment you for it tonight? 
Knowing him he would probably decide to ignore you completely, to not reveal your secret. 
You take your most costly perfume and put it on your neck and behind your ears. You love those hints of tangerine and spices. It is way too expensive for your small paycheck, but not for him. He bought you this one and numerous others. 
He loves to cover his babies with presents. You are no exception, even if he favors less ostentatious presents for you. He may have the liberty to collect Chiss lovers but you… 
You are only a human. 
An alien. 
His standing would take such a stab if your scandalous affair was uncovered to the public's eyes. And you would lie if you said you were unbothered by it. You understand his reasons to remain hidden on a factual level and for some time you even loved it, finding it exciting and enthralling! All this secrecy, the scandal and debauchery! 
But lately you just feel tired by all that. 
Your smile dies down in your mirror. 
Sometimes you would like for him to put his foot down and admit seeing you. You’re not asking him to renounce all his other lovers… Just to accept seeing you openly. 
You’re not in your teen years anymore, dating around is not as fun as it used to be. You would just like to settle, with or without someone.  
Sometimes you would like to stop everything, coming to him and putting an end to all of it. 
He would probably let you go without a fuss, and you would be left with the memories and the presents. 
He doesn’t really have a choice in the matter but you know he would never be cruel to the point of throwing you out of the manor and firing you out of your job as an assistant. You are and remain a Mitth responsibility, whether it pleases him or not, it is his duty to manage you and keep you under surveillance. 
Your hand holding your lipstick falls down on your vanity. Suddenly, tonight’s soiree isn’t as appealing anymore. 
But you had hopes for a time… the last time you spent time together he promised to take care of you if you ended up pregnant. You thought you would be closer after that, but he proceeded to ignore you for weeks on end after that. 
You sigh. You make the lipstick turn between your fingers. 
What is it even for? 
Marking you as his, and he doesn’t have to take any of the responsibilities towards you at all. 
Just reveling in the fun you represent. 
You sigh again. 
You pretty much signed up for it! 
But tonight… You don’t want to play the game. You don’t want to play the docile pet. 
You take a towel and wipe the red off your lips, you stand up and tidy the golden and red dress back in your closet. You take out a blue and green dress, less lavish and decadent, more cheap. But it’s a dress you paid for yourself, with your own money. 
Yes… 
You deserve to appear as yourself and on your own terms. 
You pick up a peach shade of lipstick and as you go to apply it, its scent reaches your nose and the mix with your perfume makes you gag. You press your hand against your mouth as you feel the sickness rising. You run and have just the time to open your toilet to vomit. Spasms contract your entire body violently. 
Ugh… 
That was weird… 
You wipe your mouth clean, seating down the toilet as sweat rolls on your temples. You spread toothpaste on your toothbrush and start brushing your teeth, getting rid of that rancid taste. Your eyes wander around until ending up on your calendar pinned to the wall. 
The date for your period's beginning has passed by more than two weeks… 
They have always been irregular, but… 
Are you… pregnant? 
----------------------- 
You enter the ballroom with a Wow. With dim lights the room is dark but not in a threatening way, but as a way to keep the secrets of the identities hidden behind the masks. Long and heavy deep green curtains drape the windows and draw a crown of velvet fabric around a large chandelier on the ceiling. The tall windows give way to balconies and let the light of the false moon and stars shine. You watch your steps on this waxed parquet floor, especially on your heels. The golden moldings reflect the feeble lights as the adorned mirrors mounted on the walls. 
All around you Chiss have attired themself with expensive fabrics and jewelry, with masks with encrusted gemstones and delicate painting details. Some wore a traditional robe while others chose designer clothes, clashing with your simple dress. 
For a second you regret not choosing the decadent red and golden dress, afraid of appearing out of place and… unworthy. But you immediately relax when you see a group of young adults with cheaper clothes discussing together. 
That's right, the Mitth may be a rich ruling family but which Merit Adoptive can access the luxury of a blood? Every social standing is represented under this roof, tied by their family name. 
Except for you. 
You are not Mitth. 
Not even Merit Adoptive. 
When the Ascendancy decided to give you to the Mitth after Senior Captain Thrawn found you, he refused to give you a place, even a temporary one. 
So you are still (Y/n)(F/n)... 
Or rather (Y/n)’(F/n), as they pronounce it. 
The human. 
The alien. 
The stray cat. 
You breathe deeply and check that your domino mask is secured. Not that it hides your identity at all, your skin color reveals immediately who you are. You do not share their beautiful deep blue shade and can be identified with a single glance. 
It's okay. 
You step in the ballroom, moving aimlessly among the groups, trying to guess who is who, letting the voices guide you.  
The music is pleasant, if not subtle, barely covering the whispers in your trails. 
You don't miss how the groups suddenly close off when you walk past them, how they lower their voices and their carmine gaze follow you, burning the back of your neck. 
It's okay… 
Just keep the mask of the detached overconfident woman and everything will be alright… You breath and straighten your back, raising your head high and conducting yourself haughtily. 
You forcefully enter a circle where you identified some colleagues, laughing loudly and speaking assuredly, faking assurance like you've done until now. You swing your hips, hand on your waist you speak with confidence.  
Even if it's fake. 
But you're good at it! 
They humor you in a conversation but you know, in their eyes you're the stray cat they can come to for a little bit of exoticism and a good lay.  
The alien with depraved mores. 
They look at you with a mix of disgust, curiosity and hunger. How you are almost Chiss-like, almost… So close to their standards but not enough at the same time. 
It makes you shiver internally. But you fuck with them by always displaying the love bites you gain at night, proving that all honorable and superior they can be they still succomb to the poor little human as much as you do for them.  
It tends to shut their mouth crap quickly. 
You speak brashly, putting on airs and graces. They respond with honey in their voices, chuckling at the audacity of the alien. 
How dare you be so confident for a lowly human? 
You just sniff at those attitudes. 
After a moment you have enough of the backhanded compliments and sly remarks hidden behind a polite smile, you step away to the buffet searching for a drink or a canape to nibble on.  
That's when he decides to make his entrance. You would recognize him anywhere and under any mask. You observed him from far away so many times, you know his gait and his way of carrying himself so well. 
Thurfian. 
Obviously, Patriarch obliges, he appears in a long traditional robe with several layers of fabrics and tissue. Red and golden, of course. You do not need to get close to guess the intricate embroideries stitched in the pricey clothes, the expensive gems sewn in the fabric, the buttons and chains of rare metals…  
They care so much about their crafts after all. 
His mask is elegant, less tacky than some, more tasteful. But you can guess the price he paid to have it done. Adorned with iridescent feathers and simple drops of gold, the mask compliments his regal features wonderfully. 
He looks so handsome, even from far away… 
Untouchable. 
Cold. 
Unreachable… 
You sigh and turn back to the buffet. You notice a cheese canapé that looks absolutely delicious and go to take it but your hand hits another quite large hand that was heading for the same delicacy. 
“I’m sorry.” You present your excuses, raising your head to the owner of the hand and gasping. 
“(Y/n)’(F/n)?” Mitth’raw’nuruodo asks, sounding almost surprised. 
His domino mask covers the higher half of his face but this voice and stature is unmistakable. Only Thrawn is this tall and buff. 
Not to your distaste, not at all. 
The Senior Captain Thrawn is usually always on the roads of the Chaos, flushing out threats against the Ascendancy before they get too big. You rarely see him at the manor as he usually prefers his city apartment to the political traps that are Chiss houses. 
“When did you come back, Senior Captain?” You inquire joyfully. 
 You are not quite friends but Thrawn was by far the most welcoming of all the Chiss you came to meet, his curiosity and thirst for knowledge pushing him to keep your relationship cordial and pleasant for you to continue to teach him about your region. You once spent an entire evening explaining to him the significance of the clothes you carried in your luggage when he found you half dead on your destroyed, drifting ship. He listened intently, taking close looks to your dresses and robes, the embroideries and laces, the ribbons and colors choices. He took interest in the family heirlooms you brought with you, your jewelry and your silly watercolors doodles and sketches. 
What did he see in all of that? Beat you. 
But he was really interested and thanked you for all the information you gave him during those evenings and you jokingly responded that you would draw his portrait for him to keep studying you under every angle and very, very closely. 
He clearly didn’t catch your innuendo. He seems to have a thick skull for those things. 
Which amuses you tremendously, so you started flirting with him each time you met him and he kept not understanding, making you laugh a lot in response. 
In some aspects this is truly adorable. 
���We arrived a week ago.” He informs you, “I was at my apartment, planning some strategies.” 
You also suspect he appreciates your company specifically because as a nobody alien under Mitth surveillance you have no political leverage against him. You picked upon how bad at politics he is and your lack of power in this field must be… reassuring to him. 
He doesn’t give you any details about his missions for all that, and you don’t try to know more. 
Frankly you are not interested in military matters and Thrawn appears competent enough to protect the Ascendancy so you decided to blindly trust him in this domain. 
“What type of art did you use this time?” You smile broadly, ready for the sea of information he will release upon you once he starts speaking about art. 
This is his special interest and being curious about it proved to be a good way to gain points in his book.  
“I used wood statuettes carved during the eight period of the…” And here he goes. 
You sip on a drink while he explains in lavish details his study of the statuettes, explaining any minute clues in long sentences, getting lost in his enthusiasm even if it only reaches his sparkling eyes and not the rest of his face. 
“You are so cultivated, Senior Captain Thrawn, when do you find time to study so much during your missions?” You manage to slip between two phrases.  
“I sleep very little.” He explains, “And it is an integral part of my strategy, the safest way for me to build my tactics.” 
“Could you teach me one day?” You take a step further to get closer to his large, tall body. 
Maker, he is so tall… That does something to you. 
You smirk in your mind, the misfit of the Mitth and the stray cat…That does sound nice to you. 
“I am afraid this is outside of my field of competence.” He shakes his head with a subtle sorry tone, “I cannot properly put into words how I understand other species' ways with art, I just… know it when I observe their arts.” 
“Too bad.” You falsely sigh, “Could you at least try? I am a very, very good student and I need to be able to detect traps in my line of work.” You roll your ‘r’ like a purring that they do so well. 
You take another step, almost pressing yourself against him. He remains still, his hands clasped behind his back. 
“I am afraid it is not possible.” He assures, “But I can propose to you to teach you art history of the different Chaos’ regions?” 
You just want an excuse to spend time with him, art history is as good as anything else. 
“I would be delighted, Senior Captain Thrawn.” You exclaim joyfully but with a sultry, alluring tone. 
You really appreciate Thrawn. He is a refined gentleman, polite and cultivated, never a bad word soiling his mouth, with a deep, melodious and… exciting voice. 
And he is not ugly to look at, far from that! His features are elegant and royal, his carmine gaze highly intelligent and inquisitive.  
Making your legs like jello. 
He is quite different from Thurfian in so many ways. More friendly once you get to know him, more open minded and ready to extend his hand to aliens, proved that they have no ill intents towards the Ascendancy of course. 
You chuckle as you remember yourself threatening Thurfian to go see Thrawn if he didn’t spend time with you. It was far from an empty threat. Thrawn was always to your taste. 
You imagine yourself well in the arms of such an elegant man. 
And if he refuses…Then you will just spend the rest of your day in a little room with a crowd of native Csilla cats, that sounds nice too. 
“But tell me rather, Senior Captain. I would have never imagined you playing along in a masked ball! Did you receive orders of some kind?” You smirk playfully at him. 
You have a hard time imagining Thurfian ordering Thrawn to come home. 
“I am accompanying someone from my crew, she was really interested in this soiree and insisted it would be good for me.”  
Crap, he has a partner. 
“Oh really?” You swing your hips, “Where is your lady right now?” You ask innocently. 
“She left me to salute some people.” He explains. 
You gauge him intently and smirk. 
“Your partner abandoned you and you rushed to the buffet to avoid people, am I right?”  
“I… Yes.” He admits, “I do not navigate political situations well. She was supposed to be my mediator with Syndics tonight and helps with my current image with politicians. But-” 
“But she left you and you panicked.” You nod understandingly. 
“I tactically retreated.” He corrects politely. “But you have the scene right. I, regretfully, cannot do any good on my own in this field.” 
You pass your arms around his, pressing yourself against him. He is really warm, really pleasant to the touch. 
“Well, I have no political leverage myself but I met some high syndics for my job as assistant. I can present you to some big guys, be polite and charming as you do so well and everything will be alright!” 
And without waiting for his response you drag him into the crowd of masked Chiss, researching some politicians with whom you could smooth out Thrawn’s image. 
You spend an hour and a half pulling him from person to person, engaging the conversation with top hats of the family insolently, not hesitating to impose yourself in the groups. Thrawn remained set back, but polite. 
If you didn’t know him you would say he was intimidated. But you know better, he just takes care to not slip off. 
You, you have your fun. You laugh and clink your drink with other glasses, presenting yourself and the Senior Captain with an impudent confidence. You try to get Thrawn to start on art or military strategies, a field where he is comfortable, trying to offer a nicer portrait of him to politicians. 
And a nicer one of yours. 
To you it is quite amusing. 
Even if you feel a flaming gaze burning the back of your head during all this time. 
Thrawn’s partner joined you rapidly after you started your political campaign, a certain Mitth’ali’astov. She was terribly sorry to have left Thrawn alone in this nest of nighthunters and presented you with her excuses, and thanks for taking care of him while she stepped away. 
She didn’t seem to mind your humanness that much, all things considered. 
You raise your head when you hear the music pick up. You grab Thrawn’s arm and head towards the dance floor. 
“You owe me a dance, Senior Captain!” 
He follows you without a fuss but with a light chuckle. 
“Really?”  
“I spent my whole soiree polishing your portrait to all of those stuck up Syndics while I could have danced and drank until I fell on the ground!” 
“You seemed to amuse yourself quite a lot on the contrary.” He counters, vaguely entertained. 
“Just dance with me!”  
He takes you in his arms and starts valsing with you. 
He is… not a good dancer, you realize. He has difficulties following the music and offering you a good pace. But you don’t care, it makes you laugh. To be surrounded by such false masks of politeness and flattery and meet such genuine mistakes is refreshing and relaxing. 
It makes the atmosphere less oppressive that a man like Thrawn can have difficulties doing something. 
“You seem terribly amused once again.” He notes. 
“You’re such a terrible dancer, Senior Captain.” You snark. 
“I am sorry. Music and dance are not my forte.” 
“It is quite good!” You reassure him, “It’s reassuring to know you encounter difficulties too!” You joke. 
“You are welcome?” He responds puzzled. 
You dance together, threatening to bump into other couples but Thrawn evades everyone with more or less grace. You let yourself be carried by his lead, even if he isn’t good at it, smiling and laughing to your heart's content. 
A new sensation of sickness rises and you shiver inadvertently. 
“Are you alright? Do you wish to stop?” Thrawn immediately proposes. 
“No… No, it’s nothing.” You smile, trembling a bit. 
“Do you want some fresh air?” 
He is quite attentionate and observant of your well being. 
You feel safe and at peace with him. You envision yourself well with him. You would make a cute couple, the misfit and the alien. 
“No, everything is fine.”  
You pass your hand behind his neck and pull him down and you audaciously kiss his cheek. The burning sensation at the back of your neck gets worse. 
“But I thank you for the worry.” You murmur in Thrawn’s ear. 
You have no idea how he will react. He has been so blind to any and all of your advances, you are about to discover it for yourself. 
He seems to freeze under your lips, but he remains silent, simply straightening his back again. He looks at you intently, his rubies gauging your very soul. 
You do not flinch or back down, looking straight in his shining red eyes without any fear or shame and offer him a bright smile in return. His shoulders seem to relax slightly. 
“A problem?” You innocently ask. 
“No.” He responds and makes you twirl on the dance floor. 
He reacted better than expected! You almost thought he would push away for trespassing his boundaries but he seems almost… pleased? 
You’re probably imagining things. 
As you swirl with him, you catch a glance of Thurfian in the ballroom. 
He is fixated on you, not minding the syndics talking to you. His lips thin as a line are a testament of his sentiments right now. 
You turn your head away and focus on Thrawn, smiling blissfully to the handsome man. He offers you a light loopsided smile in return, making your twirl and making your head turn in more ways than one.  
You giggle and press yourself against the Senior Captain under the pretense to help him lead the dance, if he finds it uncomfortable or too forward you trust he will push you back. 
He doesn’t stop you and assures a tighter grip on your back. 
The dance regrettably comes to an end but Thrawn doesn’t release you, on the contrary he seems to press you tighter against his muscular body. 
“Maybe… You could teach me how to dance properly.” He starts, “Maybe we-” 
“It is good etiquette to switch partners at the end of a dance.” A regal voice resonates behind your back. 
You spin to meet Thurfian, observing the both of you with a seemingly pissed off expression. But his face is pretty well hidden under his intricate mask. 
“You are right, my apologies.” Thrawn admits. 
You look at him. Did he recognize his Venerante? He lets you go but takes your hand to gently kiss your knuckles. 
“I wish you a delightful soiree, (Y/n)’(F/n).” 
You respectfully bow your head to him. 
“I wish you the same, Senior Captain.”  
And he leaves you. 
You do not dare to turn to Thurfian, feeling the flames of his eyes on your neck, absolutely burning your skin. 
“Will you turn to me?” He demands. 
You bite your lower lips and spin slowly. 
He is not pleased, at all… 
You bow to him, deeper this time. 
“Your Venerante.” You say with the most assured voice you can muster. 
He grabs your hands and presses you against him hard, starting the next dance. 
He is a well finer dancer than Thrawn would possibly ever be, leading you with grace and elegance, meeting your steps with ease and installing a better pace. 
“Are you having fun?” He asks harshly. 
He is smaller than Thrawn, but still taller than the average Chiss man and, mostly, human man. He towers over you, gauging you up and down with his scorching gaze. This close his beauty is simply undeniable, making your stomach twist in knots like he can do so well. 
“Yes, your Venerante. It is truly a very enthralling ball.” You try to mediate the situation. 
His grips tighten almost painfully on your hand and back, making you wince. 
“Stop playing with me. What were you doing with him among everyone else?” He bites, making you twirl and turn expertly. “Where is your dress? I chose a red and golden dress specifically for you to honor the Mitth.” 
You suddenly feel pissed off to be ordered around like a dog in work and in your private life. 
“Well it is part of my elaborate plan to protect your reputation, of course!” You sarcastically bite back, “Everyone but him knows you cannot bear his presence, what better cover but him to hide our little affair?”  
You hear him growl under the music. 
“What!? Why are you not pleased? You are never pleased with whatever I do!” You press. “Who could imagine the Oh so Great Mitth Patriarch seeing the filfthy human behind everyone’s back if she flirts with the weirdo of the family!?” You bare your teeth to him. 
“You play a very dangerous game, (Y/n).’’ He warns with an icy cold voice. 
“I’m fed up with your own game!” Your tone is acidic even if your voice is low to not get caught, “I’m always supposed to be at your disposal but you’re never here for me! You offer me presents to buy my silence when you know very well I want your presence more than anything else! You ignore me when we cross paths, not even a polite greeting because you’re just… scared to acknowledge me!” 
“Mind your tone, human.” 
“You’re just terrified to get caught! You want your cake and eat it too! You parade yourself with all those Chiss women but come back running to me when the flashes of the journalists stopped!” You know you should shut up but you cannot stop anymore. 
“Silence!” He warns again. 
“That would be terrible for you, right?! If the mighty Mitth Patriarch would be revealed seeing the alien under house arrest! Did you stop once and wondered how I felt to be enjoyed and then tossed aside like a disgrace until you get hungry for me again?! You take advantage of me and then stifle me into silence to not damage your reputation! You buy me clothes for the Mitth’s glory without wondering if it fits my taste or comfort! You come and take and leave me alone, knowing I have no support here.” 
“You have the entire Mitth family as support.” He counters with a sharp tone. 
“Everyone avoids me! Everyone ignore me! Hell, everyone hates me! This is precisely why I came to you in the first place, I needed guidance and help and you served yourself! The only one I had a remotely good relationship with is a Senior Captain you are way too happy to send away from the Manor! Are you doing it on purpose to isolate me or what?!” 
“You give yourself too much importance. You do not enter my plans like that.” He snarls with disdain. 
“Fine!” And you pull yourself off his arms.“Then leave me in peace!” 
You turn your back to him and walk away. 
You kept your tone low all the time and nobody heard anything, only wondering why one of the couples on the dancefloor stopped dancing. You walk away when suddenly all the lights flickers and a black out occurs. A complain from the guests rises as you’re suddenly in a horror holo, surrounded by disembodied red eyes all around you. 
You suddenly feel a strong hand gripping your arm and you yelp as you get dragged outside the ballroom by a secret door hidden behind one of the heavy green curtains. 
You groan and growl, trying to escape Thurfian’s grips but he has so much strength. The more you struggle the more his grip tightens, digging his nails in the soft flesh of your arm. You wince and snarl, pulling to get away but he drags you across the corridor until you reach a new door you’re being pushed inside a barely lighted bedroom. 
You almost trip up on your feet as he pushes you and closes the door. You swiftly turn towards him, absolutely out of yourself, but before you can say anything Thurfian is on you, kissing you harshly, gripping your chin in his fist. 
“I never had the responsibilities of such an unruly and ungrateful woman.” He growls, “You are driving me mad, human.” 
He keeps kissing you in a demanding embrace but you slap him across the face, sending his expensive mask flying across the room. 
He looks at you stunted with a gasp, his hand raising to touch his cheek, not believing you dared raise your hand against his person. 
On your hand you are so distressed you start trembling, a sob rising in your throat until you break under his gaze. 
“Why?” You start crying, “Why do you never listen to me?” You hide your face in your hands with ugly sobs, “Why can’t we just talk for once? Just once… I am not asking for much…” 
He remains silent, stupefied by your action. You see a trail of blood flourishing on his blue cheek where your nails scratched his skin and drops of blood start rolling on his delicate flesh. 
“I just want a simple date, anything where we don’t need to hide… Something simple. I just don’t want you to see me as a dishonor…” You gasp, trying to breathe, “Am I such a shame to you? Do you hate me so much?” You sniff with big tears rolling on your own cheeks. 
He observes his blood rolling on his fingers, mouth slightly agape. His blood must have rarely been drawn during his life, he is not used to seeing it. He turns his gaze to you, eyes wide open in shock.   
Your stomach contracts as a new wave of sickness washes over you and you press your hand against your mouth, taking support on the wall. You feel a cold sweat rising up your spine. 
Thurfian seems to calculate his errors and extends his hand tentatively to you but you slap it away. 
“Don’t touch me!” You shout. “Don’t…” 
Your hand comes caressing your stomach. 
What if you are pregnant then?  
What now? 
What will become of you? 
What will he say? 
He would surely ask you to abort immediately. He surely could never bear his precious Mitth blood to mix up with alien genes.  
But that could be your only chance to have a baby of your own.  
No Chiss wants to enter a serious relationship with you, why would they? You’re just good enough for one night and a little taste of exoticism. The only one who would is Thrawn, but even he is untouchable, never taking a hint. 
Thurfian kept you as a pet for his private collection, nothing more… You will never be more than the stray cat of the family. 
You broke down even more, kneeling down in your pain, holding your stomach to protect your baby.  
Blinded by your tears you hear the door shut and steps walking away. 
Thurfian left you. 
He must finally be fed up with you and your antics 
And now you are alone. 
Definitively alone… 
You raise your head, surprised, as you hear steps coming back. 
He didn't leave, he entered the adjacent bathroom and came back with a wet towel that he presses on your neck gently. You look up to him, not understanding anything. 
He wrinkles his nose. 
“Did you expect me to leave when a woman is in clear distress?” He asks like his honor was at risk. 
You gasp and try to get back control over your erratic breath between your tears. He pulls on the strings of your mask and lets it fall on your lap, revealing your face fully to his eyes. 
“Can you stand?” He asks a little harshly, but… less than all your previous interaction. 
You nod, sniffing. He places his hand under your armpit and helps you to the bed for you to sit. You sit down, still shuddering and hugging yourself, he sits next to you and pat your face with the fresh, wet towel delicately. 
“You are impossible.” He sneers. 
You shudder again, too thin skinned right now to take the beating. 
His action contradicts his mean words, leaving you lost and disoriented. You release your breath as he gently wipes your forehead. 
“Now, let’s talk.” He says, a tad nicer but cold, “You had grievances I came to understand.” 
You roll your hands into fists, pinching the skin of your arm. Why must everything be so cold and sterile with him? Why is everything deadly serious? Why can’t he smile your way? 
You lower your head. 
“I just want… You to be more present. To be here for me…” 
“Aren’t I present enough? I have little time for hobbies and a lot of other people to meet.” He retorts. 
You take the hit, burying yourself deeper in your pain. He prefers seeing his other babies than giving you more time. 
“I just want you… To be proud to have me at your arm…” You continue with a shaken voice. 
“You know we can’t appear publicly together. I am not ashamed of you but I have an image to maintain.” He keeps rebuffing. 
You nod, destroyed. 
“I know… I am not good enough for the Chiss, even less a Patriarch.” You murmur. 
“Such simplification. You know the political repercussions if the head of a family chooses an alien instead of a Chiss as a partner. The ramifications between families would be so shaken it could lead to a diplomatic disaster.” 
That’s all it is about with them, yeah? 
Politics, diplomacy… Fruitful relationships between families. 
No place for little you here. 
And it stabs your heart. You fantasized about your life with Thurfian so many times, waking up with him in the same bed, enjoying breakfast together, preparing his clothes and helping him braid his long hair for the day… A simple domestic life. 
But it’s no use now, heh? 
“I understand…” You give in. 
“If this isn’t to your taste, then… “ He remains mute for a second, “Maybe we should stop here.” 
The blade pierces your heart, slashing it open and letting it gush blood. You dare not meet his piercing gaze but feel it on your profile. 
You gulp, nails deep into your tender flesh. 
You open your mouth to say something but a new wave of sickness comes and seizes you and you shudder again. 
“Do you want to go to the bathroom?” He asks. 
You shake your head. 
It will pass. 
Everything does. 
“Did you eat something bad?” He investigates with his authoritative tone. 
If only he knew… 
“No…” You manage to say between your sickness, “No I…. I…” 
He looks at you impatiently but remains silent, letting you speak at your own pace. 
You gulp and breathe through your nose to gather strength. 
“I think… I am pregnant.” You manage to push the words past your lips. 
You curl up over yourself, ready to get blasted by a storm. 
“My, my. My congratulations, who did you manage to entrap?” 
Your eyes open wide. 
What? 
You turn to him, at loss for words. He’s looking at you with his signature haughty look, lasciviously resting his head on his hand, his elbow on the bed table. 
“Etiquette wants the Patriarch to send a bouquet to the couple, as a thanks to make the family grow.” He keeps going, “Did you warn him yet?” 
You open your mouth agape. You don't know how to respond to that. 
“No I… Thurfian, I think they are yours…” 
He looks you up and down, ostensibly gauging you before he cracks up a carefully crafted smile. 
“Of course they’re mine, with all the men you must see behind my back they are obviously mine.” 
You feel ire spreading in your veins. You never trapt anyone! This isn’t your style, you do not even see as many men as you used to, especially after starting to see Thurfian. You understood rapidly he was quite jealous and even if he never explicitly forbade you from seeing someone else you could feel his disapprobation in his tone and burning gaze. You open your mouth to clap back and another sickness wave silences you immediately. You moan with dizziness. 
“Is a child even compatible with your lifestyle?” He thinks out loud, holding his chin between his fingers, “I can find you an abortion clinic if you want.”  
You feel struck by lightning and the wound of your heart grows larger. You cannot even have this baby? Will he take everything from you? 
“Thurfian…” You plead, “I-I beg of you… do not make me do that…” you manage to say weakly. 
He tilts his head in response. 
“I am not forcing you to do anything. This baby is not my problem. If you wish to keep it, do it.” 
How does he know a clinic name by head so quickly? How many abortion did he ordered already? 
“The father may have a different opinion.” He finishes. 
“Please listen to me.” You continue, “I am not trying to set a trap for you… This is your baby. The dates correspond, you’re the only man I saw... in a very long time. I beg of you to trust me.”  
He sideglances you with a snarl. 
“When did your periods stop?” He groans at the end of his patience. 
“More than 4 weeks ago.” 
His nostrils flare but you see in his gaze the shadow of a doubt flashing. He remembers the steamy evening you spent together 4 weeks ago. And he distinctly remembers the lack of protection. You see him calculating all the possibilities at light speed before turning his head to you, looking at you intently. 
“You are lying to me.” He decides. 
You groan, pissed off among the dizzy feelings. 
“When was the last time I lied to you?” You demand, “Did I ever lie to you once?” 
You see him wince for a split second. You pride yourself in your honesty, no matter the problems it might bring you and he knows that. 
“Never.” He admits reluctantly, “This is one of your qualities.”  
You grab his sleeve, looking into his carmine eyes. 
“Thurfian.” You say incredibly seriously, “I am not lying. This is your baby. Everything checks out.”  
You see him wanting to say something back, shutting you down definitely and coming on top. 
But he finds nothing, and slowly, the realization of his error grows in his mind. He turns away, surely regretting his actions now, regretting seeing you ever. 
He is in a dead end. 
‘How the mighty fall’ you silently think. 
He suddenly turns to you furiously. 
“I saw you drink!” He bites, “Did you have the audacity to drink alcohol with my legacy in your womb?”  
 You're so taken aback by his reaction you can only offer a toneless response. 
“No… It was simple juice…” You defend yourself. 
He stands up and paces back and forth the bedroom, his hands clasped behind his back and eyebrows frowned, deeply thinking. 
How to get out of this with his honor intact? 
The alien is potentially pregnant with a Mitth. Worse! With him. 
You look at him walking aimlessly in the room, your dizziness subsiding gradually and letting you breathe more easily. 
He suddenly stops and flips to you. 
“Do you feel better?” 
You nod. 
He seizes your hand and forces you on your feet and drags you outside in the corridor. You follow, not understanding a thing. He pulls you around many corridors where nobody crosses your path. 
He chooses his way with application. 
You finally reach a backdoor letting on the backside garden of the hotel, he keep going trough the verdurous nature carefully crafted by the gardeners until you arrive at the parking and he  pushes you inside a limousine. His limousine you figure. With a sharp sentence he orders the driver to start and find a pharmacy, pronto! 
You cower on your seat, feeling Thurfian boiling in silence on the seat next to you. He remains silent, eyes fixed straight ahead, his mind racing. You only give him discrete side glances, like he would explode to your face if he realized you were looking at him. 
Rapidly the lights of Csaplar wrap around the expensive car and you speed in the streets of the Capital City of the Chiss. You lay your forehead against the window, observing all of those Chiss, each with their joys and misfortunes. 
Would they sympathize with you despite your alieness? Would they see the distraught future mother in you or just the ‘other’. 
“Stop here.” Thurfian orders suddenly. “(Y/n) you remain inside!”  
You nod obediently to not get even more on his bad side. 
As he enters the pharmacy in his regalia and bloody face you caress your stomach. Trying to find signs of life in your womb. Your hand remains over the place your baby would grow and you feel new tears rising behind your eyes. You hold them back, refusing to let your weak side win once again. 
You will need all your strength to fight Thurfian. 
Now that he seems to accept the possibility that the baby is his, the threat of the abortion seems to have grown closer, looming over you. 
He said he would take care of you and the child but that was only theorical, now that it is here in front of him nothing is less credible than this declaration. 
You may need to flee the manor and Csilla entirely if you want to keep your little one! 
You need your mind clear and peaceful. 
You turn to the door opening once again and Thurfian sits back down… His face is still bloody. 
He didn’t enter to get dressed? 
“To the Manor.” He orders once again, deadly cold. 
He has a little plastic bag on his laps, the thing he bought in the pharmacy surely. You fight the yen to ask what it is, instead focusing in gathering all your points for the future argument. 
Because you won’t escape it, that’s for sure. 
You reach the familiar Mitth Manor as you go through your bullet points list in your mind and Thurfian grabs your hand once again to guide you to his personal suite. He pushes the plastic bag in your hands and then pushes you inside the bathroom without any words. 
You’re left mouth agape and with unanswered questions. You open the back to discover pills against dizziness and vomiting and… A pregnancy test. 
The message is clear… 
-------------------- 
You reopen the bathroom door in complete silence and shoulders low. Thurfian is seating in one of his luxurious armchair, sipping a glass of alcohol, surely to calm down his nerves. 
You approach with little steps, the will to appear confident and insolent disappeared after all this emotions. 
Now you’re just tired and wish of the day to finally end. 
He gives you a side glance as you reach his side, silently asking the question.  
You gulp, refraining sobs and show the test. 
“Negative.” You let him know. 
You are not pregant. 
No baby, no little one… 
His gaze travels from the test to your saddened face. He finally extends his hand to observe it for himself. 
“You must be relieved.” You say full of venom but with an exhausted voice. 
He looks intently at the single line on the small screen, making the test roll between his fingers. 
“It is… relieving indeed.” He finally lets out. 
But this is not his relieved tone. 
Not at all… 
Instead he seems… Displeased? Saddened? 
You look at him in silence, trying to decipher his mood. He finishes his glass in one single large gulp and puts it down the table with a resonating clank. 
“This is an excellent news.” He repeats louder, but once again without his heart. 
You fidget your fingers, not daring to even try to understand this man. You just look at him. 
He stands up on his feet, handing you the test. 
“You must be relieved too.” He argues. 
“No…” You admit, “Not really….” 
“Because you cannot trap me with you now?” He asks sarcastically. 
You raise your eyes to his carmine gaze to find that the sarcasm didn’t reach his eyes. 
Instead he appears… tired, almost disappointed. 
“I thought you would be happier?” You ask. 
“You forgot the mask we wear, human. I need not an explicit demonstration to let my joy be heard.” 
“For now you rather seem disappointed.” You try. 
You see a flash of anger in his eyes but it softens, almost against his will, in front of your clear gaze. 
“You imagine things, (Y/n)’(F/n).” 
“Am I?” 
He growls, turning away from you, but you seize his shoulder gently, forcing him to face you again. 
“Thurfian…You can speak to me.” You call gently, “I have no power against any of you, remember?” You laugh a little, trying to relax the atmosphere. 
He looks into your human eyes, his shoulder tense but they seem to relax subtly under your touch. He sighs and sits back in the armchair. 
“I need to father an heir.” He lets out. “As a Patriarch it is one of my most sacred duties to offer the Mitth family a new offspring for the next generation. I must set an example.”  
You sit down on the table next to him, higher than him but he doesn’t seem to care. 
“You have numerous lovers.” You murmur, “You will have heirs easily.” 
Why do you even try to comfort him? He is the one who suggested you go to an abortion clinic because you saw ‘too many’ men! 
But when you see his tense expression your heart cannot help but melt. 
You cannot help but love this Chiss. 
“‘Lovers’ you say.” He scoffs, “Those are paid women. No one would take the risk to end up pregnant, not when their whole livelihood is at risk. The others are women blinded by power and fortune. I need a woman with her head on her shoulders, not one to give in to temptation.” 
“You don’t have a single genuine relationship?” you investigate, surprised. 
You knew Thurfian didn’t deprived himself of the services of some professional women, but you always thought he also had true meaningful relationships next to it. He sees so much different women you were persuaded at least some were genuinely into him. He is a handsome, rich and powerful man, he still has all his charms and chances despite his older age… He managed to completely enchant you, why not Chiss women? 
“No, I have no time for them.” He responds like it was obvious, “I dedicated all of my life to my work and my greatest reward was the Patriarch rank. I need no other thing in my life.” 
‘Except a woman willing to bear your children.’ You think but take care to not voice. He would surely slap you for the affront. 
“How did Thooraki manage?” You ask. 
“He was married young and way before acceding the Patriarch rank.” He answers almost tiredly, his slender fingers combing his luscious hair back. 
He sighs deeply, his head laying back on the back of the armchair, exposing his delicate neck to your view. You gulp slightly at that beautiful view. He opens his eyes to fix the ceiling, lost in his thoughts. 
You look at him, crossing and uncrossing your legs. 
Wait. 
Does that mean…? 
“So, outside of me you have no true relationship?” You ask. 
He growls again, flashing his long, pearly white incisors. 
“Do not mock me. I remain your Patriarch.” He warns. 
“Technically I am not even a Mitth.” You counter, “You are not my Patriarch but my jailer.”  
He shoots you a black side glance, but caves in. 
“What a pitiful Patriarch I make…” 
You put your hand on his shoulder tenderly, comfortingly… 
“No, you are not Thurfian.” You say gently, “You are admirable. You lead your family expertly and watch over every single of its members. This is worthy of admiration.” 
He sneers lightly. 
“Your Cheuhn vocabulary is still limited even after all this time, human.”  
You slap his shoulder to stop his mocking smile from growing wider. 
“But you are right. You are the only one I have at this moment.” He says almost to himself. 
And his hand comes to lay on your thighs, gently caressing them with his thumbs. You lay your own on his and he grasps it, squeezing it lightly. 
“You will find a proper Chiss woman, one that would be happy to be the mother of your children.” You encourage. 
“I lack time. I am getting older each passing day and my agenda is always cramped, how am I supposed to meet ‘the one’ like that?” He asks rhetorically. 
“Well, if you start by stopping seeing all those professionals you’ll find your agenda surprisingly lighter suddenly.” You gently mock. 
He chuckles slightly with you, appearing tired of everything. 
“You are wiser than you first appear, (Y/n)’(F/n)” He retorts. 
You sigh exaggeratedly, still holding his blue hand. He doesn’t let go either. His eyes remain fixed on the ceiling. 
“But when you told me you were pregnant with me, I… had hope for a fleeting moment.” He reveals. 
Your heart skips a beat. 
What did he just say? 
“You mean you would have wanted this child?” You investigate, restless. 
“Of course. They remain my blood.” He just says, “I already told you I would take my responsibilities if you ended up pregnant. I would not have abandoned you nor the child. I am not heartless.” 
“You have a reputation to defend and protect.” You argue. 
“A Patriarch who aborts their own children is a disgrace, we are not held to the same standards as the rest of the Chiss. We cannot renounce them either, and I would not have.” 
“Even if they are only half Chiss?” 
The question is asked, no backing down now. 
 He sighs deeply and lays his head on your thighs, to your surprise! You are so taken aback you don’t know what to do, so you tentatively start caressing his gorgeous mane. 
He doesn’t stop you, so you keep going. You lightly graze the cut on his cheek. At least the blood stopped flowing. 
“The laws are nebulous on this point.” He murmurs, “I have the sentiment no half blood is supposed to see the light of day, that the Chiss are to avoid it at all cost.” 
“But… But you came inside me last time.” You say lost, “You told me yourself you would support us.”  
“Maybe… I was hoping for a happy accident…” He delicately caresses your round thighs, “I lack time and maybe I hoped you would end up pregnant and give me a baby, despite everything… If I cannot give the Mitth an heir I still desire a child for myself.” 
The air is sucked off your lungs by the shock, you feel your hands starting to tremble as you caress his hair.  
In that instant you realize you and Thurfian are more alike than you first thought. You both just want someone that will not hate you. You for being an alien and him for the misfortune to be Thooraki’s heir to the Patriarch rank. Thooraki was well respected but above all loved by the Mitths and Thurfian seems to stand on a shaky ground. Mitths have elected him as Patriarch but very clearly appear wary of him... To the point that his first aid Thivik seems to regret their late Patriarch to the new one. 
He must feel alone on his throne.  
“Thurfian?” You whisper incredulous, “Are you telling me that… You wanted me to bear your child?” 
He keeps caressing your thigh, almost like he didn’t hear you, but you know he has. 
“Why not?” He finally says, “I appreciate you and your company. You have terrible manners but you save it with other qualities…” 
“But I’m human…” You insist 
He turns his head to meet your gaze. 
“Is your view of my personhood that unfavorable?” 
You gulp under such burning eyes. He looks straight at you without shame or reserve, seeing through your vulnerable human soul with his shiny glare. Squirmish, you press your thighs together and wiggle on your wooden table. 
But there are some details you cannot look over! 
“How could I know? You always refused to adopt me in the family! Right now I am not even a Merit Adoptive!” 
“I know…” He admits, “I was afraid they would suspect something if I let you enter. I wanted to cover my tracks.”  
“Do you have a single idea how that hurts?!” You greet your teeth. “How rejected I felt?!” 
He straightens his back but keeps looking at you. 
“I am sorry.” He confesses  
His hand caresses your cheek as you tremble, gently tilting your head forward until he can capture your lips in an infinitely soft kiss. Your lips barely graze, like butterflies flapping their wings in the wind, you can feel his warm breath on your parted lips. 
“You taste like peaches.” He says lowly and kisses you again. 
You cannot help a little smile against his soft mouth. 
“How would you treat them once they are born?” You ask, still suspicious. 
“They will be blood Mitth, as I am. They will receive the best education the family can offer, they will get a generous pension and lands to manage. I will treat them with all regards due to their rank.” He reassures you. 
“And what would I become? Will I remain the stray of the Mitth?” You press. 
“(Y/n), if you give me a healthy baby I promise to give you a rank among the family.” He offers you seriously. “You will become a Mitth as everyone else around you, others will give you the respect you deserve for your service to grow the family.” He captures your lips again, more demanding and desperate you ever saw him, “Please say yes. (Y/n)... Give me a child.” 
‘Will you marry me?’ The question burns your lips, but you bury it deep. 
You never revealed your love for him and know nothing of his true feelings towards you, now is not the time to scare him away and your best chance to get stability in the Ascendancy. 
So you kiss him back, with vigor and fervor, circling his neck with your arms as he clasps his arms around your waist. 
“Will you?” He parts with you with feverish red burning eyes. 
“Yes.” You nod, “I will give you a baby, Thurfian.”   
He sighs satisfied and kisses you again, losing himself in you. 
“Did you take the medicine?” He stops again. 
You pause. 
Your stomach stopped hurting and you don’t feel any sickness anymore. 
“Yes. It’s surprisingly potent!” You admit. 
“Good.” And he lifts you up in his arms with ease. 
He’s not a warrior or a soldier but he takes great care of himself! Patriarch duties are incredibly demanding after all, good physical health and stamina are essential to survive a single day here. You yelp at the sensation to be lifted all of the sudden and hold on to him as he carries you to his large bed. He lays you down softly, kissing your neck. He claps his hand and all the lights dim down, accentuating the shimmer of his carmine gaze. 
“I need you to be healthy and focused tonight.” He whispers, biting your ear as one of his hands comes to seize the zipper at the back of your dress.  
You raise on your elbows to give him better access and start licking and sucking the skin of his neck, letting purple love bites on his flesh. He growls in approval and pulls the zipper down, passing his hands behind the fabric to caress the nude skin of your back. You circle his neck again and pull him down to force him to lay on you. 
You want to feel the weight of his entire body on yours. 
He is so warm, you can feel it radiate through the layers of fabric of his traditional robe but you want to feel his warm blue skin on yours now! You feverishly seize his collar to find the buttons or chain helding it close but his hand stops you easily. 
“Shhhhhhhhh. Let’s take our time…” He calms your ardors down, “Let us savor the experience.” He sighs lasciviously, licking your neck. 
Thurfian never wants to take his time. Never! 
He wants a good lay and he wants it quick! 
You look at him with round eyes, heavy with suspicion. 
“Do not look at me like that.” He chastises you. 
“You always have your way and throw me out of the room immediately after.” You counter. 
He kisses your knuckles. 
“It will not happen anymore.” He says tenderly, kissing each of your fingertips and your palms.  
You sniff, incredulous. 
“You have my word.” He assures. 
And he resumes kissing you deeply, languorously… His tongue meets and dances with yours softly as he holds your cheek in his warm palm. You moan in the kiss, demanding for more. 
So he gently pulls on the shoulder of your dress to undress your top to reveal your black laced bra to his burning gaze. 
“Beautiful.” He approves, “But the Mitth colors suit you way better.” 
You chuckle. He really stands by it! 
He sucks and bites your sensitive neck, leaving love bites on your own skin, marking you as his. He slowly goes down, kissing his way to your collarbone and further. He kisses and licks the plump of your breast before grazing the thin skin with his long incisors, threatening to pierce the skin. You let your head fall on the bed, leaving your body  at his entire mercy, leaving him to do as he pleases with you. 
But the bite never came. He kisses your bosom reverently instead.  
He pulls the dress til your waist down before slipping the braces of your bra out of his way to reveal your breast fully to him. 
“Gorgeous, so round and soft, just as I love them. Your body is a real treasure (Y/n).” 
You gasp under his caress and kiss. He never took the time to compliment you or appreciate your body, not beyond the pleasure it could give him, before tossing it to the side without another glance. 
But tonight he takes all of his time to explore each and every nook and crannies. He makes your nipple swirl under his thumbs, exciting the nervous buds gently before leaning forward and taking one in his mouth. He sucks your nipples and laps it with his tongue and circling it across. You shudder and moan, combing your fingers in his mane, pressing him down against your craving body. You feel yourself growing hotter and more fébrile under his touch, your pussy awakening from its torpor to demand immediate attention. He growls his own pleasure to you too, not refraining from bestial groans to excite you further. You wave your body and arch your back into his greedy mouth and he purrs in response. 
That single sound sends vibrations through his flexible tongue to your bud and you bite your lower lips, taking a fistfull of his shiny hair, messing his coif. He takes a big sloppy lap at your nipple, leaving drool rolling on the plump of your tit. He kisses it a final time and switches to the other, pinching and swirling the left out. You squirm under his weight, desperate for him to go further, to touch you where you're warm and humid. 
Because you are definitively wet now! 
This change of mood for a gentler lover is appreciated and it excites you tremendously. 
“Thurfian… Thurfian…” You whine, trying to get things moving but he growls a warning, sucking conscientiously on your nipple. 
He kneads and massages the other with his large palm like the soft and delicate matter that it is. He offers so much care and attention to your tits, kissing them like holy relics. A tremble shakes your entire body, making you squeeze his head against your breast, choking him for a split second. 
“Sorry.” You present your excuses. 
“There is no need. Suffocating on your tits is far greater than good. I bet suffocating between your thighs is even better…”  
You choke for a split second. 
Did he just propose to go down on you? 
He never did that! He is above that! 
But he is kissing his way down right now, licking all across your stomach, soiling you with his drool. He stops just ahead of the folds of your dress, giving it a last lick with the tip of his tongue. 
“Place yourself correctly on the bed.” He orders, rising back on his feet. 
You crawl on your back, aligning you correctly with the large bed and coming to rest on the fluffy pillows. You observe Thurfian getting rid of layers and layers of his robes. When he notices you looking at him like a delicious meal he smirks smugly and puts on a little show undressing for your viewing pleasure. Slowing down his gestures and caressing his own body as he finally reveals his chest to you. There is a layer of fat on his chest and stomach but the hard muscles are indisputably here, carving his body out of pure marble.  
He is really well made… You gulp, almost intimidated. 
It feels like discovering his body for the very first time. 
And he is scorching hot! His older age doesn’t spoil a single thing either, Chiss growing older much more gracefully than human and enhancing their haughty air and elegant regal features... 
Your mouth opens slightly, drooling in hunger especially subjected to such alluring spectacle, and you press your thighs together while one of your hands scoops your sex and massages it through the fabric of your panties. He finishes his little show in his boxers and by liberating his mane of all their hair ties and ornaments, letting all his long hair flow in his back freely. He slicks the front strands back with his hand as he crawls towards you like a hungry predator, a growl resonating inside his chest and in the large suite. 
You gulp, his flaming gaze devouring your form like a costly dish he is about to feast on. 
He seizes your knees and opens your legs wide open and his slender hands snake their way up your inner thighs, caressing your flesh lovingly, pushing the dress out of his way up to your hips, revealing your little laced panties. 
Green and blue too. 
He snarls. 
“You have some nerve to come dressed in Stybla's colors to my ball, woman.” 
“It’s the only dress I paid for myself that could make the cut for such an event.” You try to explain. 
“When you get pregnant I only want you to wear burgundy and gold.” He orders, “No strutting around with my child in a rival family’s color, understood?” 
You swallow before his inquisitive gaze. 
“Could I at least choose the clothes for myself this time?” You negotiate. 
His expression relaxes and he leans forward to tenderly kiss your thighs. 
“Yes, Vutucni.” He purrs, and your pussy clench at how sweet his tone sounds, “But you still deserve a punishment. I will make you come so hard you will beg me to stop.” He warns, licking his lips with a predatory look. 
You shiver, but not of fear or anxiousness, but of desire and anticipation. You’re dying to feel his touch on you, you feel a single caress would make you implode on the spot.  
“That doesn’t seem to trouble you.” He notes, slightly amused, “Quite the contrary.”  
You nod your head enthusiastically and open your legs wider for him. You cannot help but bite your lips with expectation. His large hands hook your panties and pull them, not neglecting to leave love bites all along your legs, sucking on the sensitive flesh. 
But never where you crave it the most. 
You whine pushing your hips closer, begging for him to start, shaking all over with desire. He darkly chuckles. 
“I always appreciated your enthusiasm.” He lets you know, “Sex between Chiss is more… restrictive in some ways. You, you abandon yourself completely to me… I love that.” He praises. 
Your heart clenches, Chiss view on sex is more practical than pleasure oriented. They love not letting the mask of ‘perfection’ slip off their face and a sweaty activity demanding you to be vulnerable and open to the other might be a bit of a threat to their honor. 
Not to say they don’t have pleasure! There is always exceptions to the rule and you know somewhere in Chiss space a lot of couples are fucking like snowrabbits in rut but you also remember how closed off and terribly sterile and formal Thurfian was during your first times, until he started to relax and show his true deviances and kinks to you. 
Cause if you ever started to claim the Patriarch of the family was as perverted and touch starved as everyone else who would give credits to your words? You remained an untrustworthy alien. 
You grab his cheeks and pull him closer to capture his soft lips. You kiss him deep and languorously, robbing you both of your breath. You just felt this pressing desire to kiss him at his words, to make one together. You moan and mewls for his pleasure and he bites your lower lips with guttural groans. His hand sneakily reaches your gaping pussy and trails your fold up and down with his long fingers, coating them well and flicking your little clit with his thumbs, making you react instantly. You gasp in the kiss and he pushes his tongue inside your mouth instead, pressing them together to dance and hug. His second hand comes behind your head to press you tighter, gripping your hair in his fist and pulling on them. Your head is yanked back, exposing your neck to his greedy mouth that he licks thoroughly. He peppers kisses on the bruised spot where the love bites are already appearing. 
“Do not hide your marks tomorrow.” He orders. 
“Will you hide yours?” You tease. 
But you also want to make sure he doesn’t want to show you off while hiding the proof of his sin. 
“Depends.” He sneers darkly, “Will you be good for me tonight?” 
You scoff offended. 
“Am I not always good for you, your Venerante?!” You demand. 
He nudges the tip of his nose with a hickey, a satisfied grin flourishing on his face. 
“I am playing with you, Vutucni.”  
You purse your lips, pouting. He circles your clit harder to make you jolt and gasp, his other flexible fingers toying with your little cunt with practiced ease. 
“You make me lose track of all my objectives, you unruly woman.” He bites the crook of your neck, “Don’t move.” 
He reverently kisses your two tits and places himself correctly and comfortably between your legs, grabbing your thighs with his large hands, keeping them wide apart. 
“You are already wet, but I want you absolutely dripping like a fountain.” He blows on your exposed pussy, making all your inner muscles contract in response, blocking the air in your throat. He takes a tentative lick at your nervous bud, making you jolt immediately. You’re so thin skinned and sensitive at this moment… 
His purr deepens. 
“Very nice reaction, human.” He praises, “But how loud can I really make you scream?” 
And without leaving your time to respond he dives in to take a big sloppy lick of your pussy and starts working. Obscene moans escape you as he works diligently on your folds, trailing the slit up and down with his flexible warm and wet muscle. You feel your legs starting to shake and willing to close to deny him access but he holds them firmly open without difficulties. He kisses and licks your pussylips gluttonously before focusing on your pearl. 
He darts his tongue and titillates it sadistically with light touches, making you crave and beg for more as he just pokes and gives little licks to the heart of your desires. You squirm and whine, inadvertently trying to get away from those torturous touches, but he assures his grips on your plump thighs and starts sucking on your clit like a candy, making it roll between his swollen lips, circling it with his tongue, crossing it and lapping at it. Your hands get a grip on the soft covers, digging your nails in the fabric as you feel yourself getting wetter and wetter, your essence leaking down your puffy flesh but he is here to drink from you, licking you clean, delighting himself in your taste. He doesn’t refrain from voicing his satisfaction to your ears, purring and growling like an actual beast. 
One of his hands leaves your thighs to open your pussylips with two long fingers to expose your hidden flesh to his assaults. You feel your abdominals and inner muscles contracting in waves as he laves at you enthusiastically. He suddenly bites down your clit and you start in pain and pleasure, owning an amused purr in response. Once again, the vibrations of his purr travel through his warm tongue to tease your pearl even more, absolutely forcing you on your knees. 
“Thurfian…” You gasp. 
He hums in response, very pleased by your various reactions of obvious pleasure, encouraging him to continue further. 
He will push your limits until you are screaming between his hands. 
He enters your most secret place with a finger and starts caressing your G spot expertly while sucking on your clitoris. You feel his long finger caressing every inner curves with flexibility. He was always so good at fingering you and loved to flex his talents by having you cum with his fingers alone. He prided himself in making you come undone with a single finger! 
But doubled up with his mouth…? 
This is so much more intense and pleasurable!  
By sheer despair your hands come entangle themself in his luscious blue-black mane, combing your fingers in his locks and holding him against the heart of all your desires. Your legs shake so much you’re affraid to hit him with your trembling heels. He throw your legs over his shoulders and you cross them, keeping him prisoner between your luscious tighs. He sucks and licks like a machine, unstoppable and tireless while you spend more and more energy trying to keep it quiet, a scream of pleasure rising and growing in your throat, threatening to pass your lips at any second if your not careful. 
Thats when he pushes a second finger inside your gaping pussy, curling them against your gummy spot. 
You cannot hold it back and scream. You immediately bite hard into one your finger to silence yourself. 
And he doesn’t tolerate it, he bites hard in your inner tighs with a pissed growl. The pain forces your mouth open, releasing your finger. 
“Scream, Human. I do not give you the right to remain silent.” He orders curtly. 
“But we will be heard, we-” 
“They are all at the ball at the Hotel Particulier. We are alone, there is only us.” 
You gasp, trying to catch your breath from the drowning pleasure you are feeling. 
“What about the domestics?”  
“They are contractually mute and deaf. Do not bother yourself with them and focus on our pleasure!” 
‘Our pleasure’... 
It makes your heart pumps harder. Makes you feel light... 
To prove his point he scisors you, hooking your little pussy with his long fingers efficiently as he torture your puffy clit, forcing all of those obscene pleas like an obsessive littany. Your fluffy inner fleshes puff up, gorging themself with warm blood to prepare for the upcoming, roaring orgasm you feel just over the curb, right there, you could almost touch it... 
And then 
It snaps. 
Fire flow through your veins and your pussy clench hard around Thurfian’s fingers, retaining  them deep inside, contracting as waves of pleasure travel your entire body, immobilizing you in a deliciosuly torturing embrace... 
Your little pussy tightens so much so suddenly you squirt into Thurfian’s mouth and your toes curl, your eyes roll inside your head as you scream again the Patriarch’s core name for all to hear. Your entire body tenses up like you were electrocuted and suddenly relaxes with a ‘oof’ on the large comfortable bed. 
You can only hear your own heartbeat resonating in your ears and Thrufian’s satisfied purr as he lick the remnant of your essence off your sweet cunt, drinking your pleasure raw and pure like ambrosia. 
You pant, feeling your sweat rolling on your naked skin as Thurfian stands up, licking his fingers ostensibly, sucking them clean obscenenly as a power move as your slick still beads off his perfect jaw. 
“You taste sweet.” He compliments, “Quite savory. You make for a very tasty dinner, Vutucni.” 
His eyes shine so much you cannot see any pupils anymore, lighting up the bedroom of a dangerous red shade. 
But you feel at ease. 
You like to bath in all this red, surrounded by darkness and warmth. It feels so right. 
He leans forward to capture your lips, letting you taste yourself on his tongue. He invades your mouth, caressing your tongue as he holds the back of your head to keep you in place without any chance of escaping. 
He purrs so loudly, so unashamedly you want to purr with him. 
“It was a really good performance, Vutucni. I want you to do it again with my cock this time.” He licks your jaw and bites your ear. 
“Then give it to me.” You lick his blood off his cut cheek. 
He raises on his knees to lower his boxers, freeing his erection. It stands proudly erect, girthy and long with delicious ridges, you take it in your hand and start pumping him, playing with the crown of his cock, pulling on the skin to reveal the head that leaks pre-cum. 
You’re about to take it in your mouth when Thurfian seizes your throat to gently push you down the matress with his eyes silently ordering you to remain still.  
You pout, making him chuckle in return. 
He places himself correctly between your open legs and starts brushing his long member against your soaked folds, he coats it well and good with a back and forth movements and spreading his pre-cum all along his lenght with one hand. He pokes and nudges your tight entrance with his tip to tease you, amusing himself at how pissed off you get as he doesn’t enter you right away. 
His expression loose its light to become grave and serious all of the sudden, burying his gaze in yours. 
“(Y/n), there is something you must be aware of beforehand.” He starts gravely. 
You slowly nods, unsure of what he is about to unleash on you and slightly affraid by the sudden change of tone. 
“This child... Could not get accepted by the rest of the Chiss. It is very clear to me that they would never accept them as my heir.” 
“Can’t you... force them? You are Patriarch after all...” 
“They will receive the privileges of the blood Mitth, but I am affraid their life will be... lonely and mostly without ties.” 
“Are you affraid they will look too human?” 
“They won’t. Chiss genes prevail.” He immediately hardens his tone. 
You open your eyes slightly at that aggression and he relaxes seeing your expression, his hand coming to caress your cheek delicately. 
“They will look Chiss, they will just... feel it on them, that they are not pure Chiss. And I worry it will weigh on them.” 
You are alone since day one in this Society and you managed but Thurfian could give them what you never could. 
“As long as they have the power of the blood, I can teach them to live in this unforgivable environment.” 
“How?” He asks softly. 
You scoff. 
“I do it daily! I know how you operate and I’ll prepare them to take down any challenge!” You greet your teeth. 
‘And take down any of you!’ you add in your mind. 
His thumb gently caress your cheek, like he is lost in his thoughts. 
“You speak so harshly of us.” 
“You are not exactly welcoming with outsiders.” 
“You have me now.”  
You tuts. 
“Will you be here for them as well?” 
“Everyday.” He gently assures, “They are my child as much as yours.” He leans forward to kiss you again and lets his forehead resting against yours, “I worry the same for you. They will give you respect but close their hearts to you.” 
“As long as they bow to me I will be magnanimous.” You half jokingly lets out. 
“I will also probably need to father another child.” He keeps going, “A pure Chiss, for my lineage.” 
He lets the information sink, and with it your heart.  
He will not remain with you? 
“A half-blood could never be an heir of one of the nine...” 
“Yes I understood the first time!” You spit, annoyed. 
“I cannot be exclusive with you.” He insists. 
“I know.” You sulk in your pain, “I figured as much...” 
He brushes your foreheads together. 
“I am sorry, (Y/n). You may have been the only one who were ready to stay with me no matter what.” 
You bury your heart. 
You would have followed Thurfian to the other side of the universe if he just asked, you would have done unforgivable things to remain with him... 
But such are the Chiss. 
Heartless and practical. 
“I just hope you’ll find the right woman quickly.” You hide your pain behind and encouraging smile you shine to him. 
He inhales, still caressing your cheek. 
“Do you still want this?” He offers you an escape door. 
But you circle his neck with your arms and his waist with your legs. 
“Give me your baby.” You bury your nose in the crook of his neck. 
You cannot have his undivided attention and love, but you can still give him a family... His own little family. 
He embraces your shoulders tight and you feel him slowly invading your pussy. Your mouth open in a perfect ‘o’ at the sensation to finally be full. He pushes his cock inside easily to not hurt you. 
But he hurted you deeper he ever could already. 
You hiss at his size. He is well endowed and always a little tricky to fit, but your first, fantastic orgasm helps a lot and he finally sit fully inside. He remains still for your comfort, letting your pussy time to adjust, patiently. When he feels your muscles relaxing all around him like a fluffy pillow he gives you one shallow thrust, testing your reactions. It slips easily and without hurting. Without you asking him to stop he takes it as a ‘go’ and starts a back and forth movement, leaving just the tip inside and pushing it back his whole lenght inside. 
He makes gentle love to you, with deep and languid thrusts, kissing the crook of your neck and nibbling your ear. Your pussy welcomes him fully, eagerly inviting him inside, his numerous ridges grazing and teasing all your deep hidden spots so easily... 
You gasp and mewl, a comforting pool of heat getting born in your bundle of nerves and small shockwaves of pleasures spreads through your veins. Thurfian hiss and grunts as your cunt squeezes his cock, absolutely torturing him, tearing him apart. 
You feel his eagerness to speed up the pace but he keeps it slow and languorous as he licks your shoulder to your jaw before kissing to corner of your parted lips. 
“You are strangling me, (Y/n).” He groans, “You’re forcing me on my knees...” 
Serves him right! 
He pushes it back in terribly slowly, a creamy ‘o’ starting to form at his base. You gasp as his dick brushes your spots without breaking a sweat. His purr resumes, resonating in the large bedroom and with your heart as he hugs you close against his own. He suddenly grazes a spot that makes you shudder in bliss and clench your pussy around his cock. 
“Ch'etecerci!” He curses, “Stop doing that!” He rasps, sweaty and trembling. 
You gorge yourself with pride, he is not insensible to the pleasure you give him! You can reach him too and touch him. 
He isn’t closed to you. 
To toy with him you contract your inner muscles several times and he throws his head backward in pure bliss. 
“(Y/n), (Y/n), (Y/n)...” He chants breathily, pecking your face all over, “You are torturing me so deliciously, you temptress.” 
You whine as he slowy starts to increase the pace of his hips. The entire room reeks of sweat and sex and your only source of light is his carmine eyes, burning everything it remotly touch such as your shuddering body. His hips meets yours sloppily but lovingly, tenderly, gently... 
You gasp as he sough sweet nothing in your ear, kissing it foundly as he presses his cheek to yours, his entire perfect body weighting on yours, wrapping you in a sweet warmth that you never felt in any other lover’s embrace. The rythm is slow but fill with love and passion, just expressed differently than what he is used too. 
He always liked it rough and harsh, far away from tenderness and gentleness. He kept this side of him locked and hidden. 
He could never show another side but conquering and dominant to the alien as the Patriarch and more importantly as a Chiss. Their fierceness must be displayed at any moment, especially to outsiders, never showing any weakness or soft sides. 
So, 
For him to allow you to see that part of him... That vulnerable part... 
It is probably a one time thing and you should enjoy it for the little time you have, he would probably close himself back to you after, even if he promised to take more care of you. 
His attention is earned but never his affection. 
You embrace him tighter to emprison him, letting your pussy adjusting to his size to let him pass, your inner secret place all puffy with blood and fluffy like a pillow for his cock, like a velvety sheath made for him.  
He rolls his hips rythmically with your breathes, letting you guide him for the pace and making sweet love to you like he never did before. You turn your head to kiss his cheek with a mimic of their deep purring sounds. A poor imitation from your human vocal cords but you hear a very faint chuckle and his own purr gains in intensity. It’s like music to your ears with his groans and pants. 
His hands leave your shoulders to grip your hips and ass to position you in a better angle, allowing him to go even deeper wich seems almost impossible. 
But he does, brushing your cervix with his leaking tip. 
This new sensations sends fire to your nerve endings and you tremble dramatically in his arms, a tsunami of pleasure ready to crash upon you. 
“Oh Maker...” You breathe, the warm waves rising in your veins almost comfortingly, “Keep going, please!”  
He lay his forehead on yours, looking into your human eyes and you suddenly feel incredibly shy to be seen and perceived in such intimate moment you close your eyes to protect your sanity.  
“Look at me please.” He calls majestically, “Look into my eyes when you cum.” 
You squirm and shake your head, your eyes shut close. He takes your chin between two fingers and tilt your head towards his face. 
“(Y/n), look into my gaze.” He orders, “As a Mitth you must always obey your Patriarch.” 
His other hand leaves your hip to take yours and entertwine your fingers together. You whine but open your eyes tentatively, looking up to the Chiss looming over your naked, exposed form. 
You immediately drown in an ocean of red, hypnotized, witnessing the Universe expending in his carmine jewels burning so bright with excitement and lust you are almost blinded by such light. 
And you immediately cum. 
Your pussy clenches and squeezes around his girthy shaft, trying desesperatly to retain him deep inside. You close back your eyes in shock, hyperspaces draw in white light behind your eyelids. Thurfian cock is compressed and massaged by your inner muscles, getting pulled deeper in voluptuous sensations, dragging him further in red-hot pleasure and he comes inside you, painting your little pussy in white as he spurts his semen deep inside your womb. 
You feel his shaft twitches and didders almost painfully, forcing a deep guttural growl off his throat, and your pussy milks him dry, pumping everything greedily inside your warmth. 
He didn’t let go of your hand. 
You remain silent, gasping for air, Thurfian laying on your body, both sweaty and burning hot. You dive your head in the crook of his solid neck to inhale his natural musk enhanced by your efforts. 
It is manly, with strong notes of pine and sex and... comforting, like a scent you smelled in your childhood. 
You can also feel your two beating hearts pumping quickly from the physical efforts through your respective chests, you slide a hand between your two bodies to place it on his large peck to feel the vibrations through your palm. You cannot help a little chuckle when you feel his heart jumping at the soft contact of your hand. 
He gently kisses your shoulder with the ghost of his lips, leaving pecks as light as butterflies wings. As you go down from your daze he gently slips off of you to straigthens his back, well grounded on his knees on the matress. He rises his head high and dramatically slick his hair back, looking down at you regally. 
“Turn around and raise your hips.” He orders. 
His shaft is still well erected, standing tall and proud, making you slightly anxious of what is to come... 
You groan, tired and sore but you roll on your stomach with a sigh and raise your hips in the air, to soothe yourself you take one of the pillow and put it under your head to hug it and dig your nails in the fabric. 
Thurfian large palms caress the plump or your ass before gripping your hips and harshly bring them closer to him. 
You feel two of his fingers trailing your slit up and down, coated with his sperm and your essence that you feel rolling along your thighs.  
And he noticed too. 
He flicks your pussy making you start at the sharp pain disolving in numbing pleasure. 
“You are already wasting my semen, woman. How am I supposed to get things done around here?” 
 “I am sorry your Venerante.” You swing your hips to taunt him, “I am a bad girl!” 
And you both burst out in a light chuckle. 
You could never say such things seriously! 
Thurfian clears his throat to stop while yours finish in a deep, long sigh, pleased to have relaxed the atmosphere a bit. 
“Keep steady, Vutucni.” 
And that’s your only warning before he pushes back his cock inside your gaping pussy. All air is chased or your lungs at the sudden fullness, feeling stuffed to the brim by his glorious member. He takes two shallow thrusts, testing your wetness and flexibilty and starts to fuck you like he loves to. 
You’re forced to open your legs wide to stabilize yourself on the soft, fluffy matress to not get pushed over, and you dig your nails in your pillow, menacing to tear apart its fabric. You focus on your breathing as he rams his lenght inside without an once of mercy for your exhausted, more fragile human body. 
You have no Chiss stamina nor resistance. You are far more limited as a human, wich was tricky at first when they gave you a standardized agenda for Chiss. Numerous time you tought you would pass out of exhaustion for Thurfian to keep fucking you while you’re unconscious. 
He would not stop for so little. 
You hiss as he bullies himself deep inside, hitting your cervix with ease. 
 It is more painful than pleasant and each hit gets more painful than the former. 
He seems to take it into account as he slightly tilts his pelvis to change the angle, making it more comfortable for you, easing your pain to a more voluptuous and warm sensation. He slightly slow down his rut to test this new angle before resuming his merciless pace, hitting all your spots even better and making you see stars. You feel yourself drooling on your jaw as the pool of heat in your stomach grows more and more at each of his profound thrusts, like ebullient lava ready to spill and burns anything it touches. 
Thurfian lets out a deep sighs as he keeps fucking you hard and good, holding your hips firmly for you not too fall or escape.  
“(Y/n)... (Y/n)...” He chants in his melodious accent, “You let me discover my true desires.” He accentuates each words with a good hips movement, making you whimper each times as you threaten to fall off the bed, “You let me breed you, my little human. To do as I please, to fuck as I want...” 
In this frenetic frenzy you feel his hand snaking it’s way under you to play with your puffy clit. 
You jolt with a breathy moan, making your pussy clenches around him. 
“Ravri'ihah!” He curses with a deep voice, “What did I told you about that?” 
But he keeps playing with your pulsating pearls expertly, making you whimper louder and louder and your legs tremble so much you feel they are going to give way under you. 
You bite into the pillow to silence yourself, earning an instantaneous slap on your butt. 
“I ordered you to not silence yourself, I recall!” His regal voice rising imperiously over you, “I am going to make you scream for your transgression.” He sentences. 
And he increases his movement, installing a brutal pace, fucking you like an animal. This time he truly is bestial, bullying himself meanly into your poor pussy. 
Your poor body isn’t meant to bare such intensity. This time you feel like you’re really going to pass out! Air is pushed out of your lungs with hard shockwaves each time you try to open your mouth. 
“Wait... Thu-Thurfian, please... Slow down, I-” 
“Oh you want me to slow down now? You want my mercy? I generously warned you but you kept disobeying your Patriarch. You thought I would not stick to my words and leave you unpunished?” He taunts, a sadistic notes in his pleased tone. 
He sure is enjoying himself. 
“I will have you learn who I truly am, (Y/n)’(F/n). You will learn to obey your Patriarch by the end of this night.” 
He slaps your ass again and resume his torture on your clit, making you clench harder and harder. 
He knows all your sweet spots, he learned them by heart by know. If he wants you screaming in debilitating pleasure, he will have you screaming! 
“Now learn your lesson, woman.” 
He twists your clit between his fingers as he hungrily fucks you like he never did before. 
Soon enough you cannot refrain any of the inadvertent cries that escape you under such terrible assaults, they get louder and louder as you dig your nails in the matress, trying really hard to not silence yourself again to not aggravate the situation, but also trying to keep them in check to not outright scream for everyone to hear again. 
Thurfian laughs contented at your pitiful efforts.  
“I was being nice to you until now.” He flicks your clit to have you trying to squirm away, only to impale you back on his cock, “And I will breed you. You will give me a child, several even. You will remain with me, not to see any other lovers. You will be mine, and mine only!” 
To prove his point he fucks like a jackhammer, forcing your sore pussy to take him whole, strecthing it at it’s maximum, ruthlessly torturing your nervous and thin skinned body. 
It should be painful with how violent and heavy it is, but each push just makes you cream more and more around his girthy shaft. 
This time your legs do give out, but Thurfian holds you firmly with his strong arms. 
“Tired already?” He mocks “You human are such fragile creatures it is comical. How do you intend to carry a Chiss baby, I wonder?” 
You greet your teeth. 
“Fucking try me!” You manage to spit between two gasped moans. 
“Still snappy I see. If you have the energy to talk back you have the energy to scream. So please, Vutucni, humor me!” 
And he leans forward, his bust agaisnt you back, deepening his thrusts, and bites down your shoulder with his long incisors. 
You shout, the pain melting in a numbing bliss rapidly as he licks the blood rolling off your shoulder. His purr gets deeper and seems to roll on both of your skin as ocean’s tides. 
He forces your body to lay down, following you down and ruts inside you, toying with your little pearl, worsening the clasp of your cunt on his member wich he actually seems to enjoy a lot! 
Having his cock strangled by your little creaming sex his such a delight! Such a high! 
He growls satisfied as you babble incoherently under his languorous offensive, your hips meeting with wet obsessive sounds, flesh hitting flesh obscenely, perversely. 
“Oh Maker please slow down!” You breath, “You-Your Venerante! I am sorry!” 
“Keep begging, cheo Vutucni. It suits your cute voice so well...” He teases.  
He doesn’t slow down for even a second, his throbbing cock invading your intimacy, forcing it’s way in as your poor cunny cannot do another thing but to take it.  
‘’You are so tight, Vutucni. Tighter than any Chiss cunt. You were made for me to fuck you. You were created to serve your Patriarch and bear his children.’’ 
You whimper at his words, melting on the spot as your toes curl. 
‘’You want this ? You want my babies ? Do you, human ?’’ 
‘’I-ah !... Yes your Venerante.’’ You gasp, trying desperatly to focus but his ministrations on your clit and his rut just scramble your mind. 
You are drooling all over yourself and the pillow is soaked. 
‘’What a good little human, eager to please and be breed.’’ He kisses your cheek almost tenderly, ‘’Give it to me Cheo  Vutucni. Give me all of your pleasure.’’ 
And he punctuates his words with his finals hard thrusts making you scream and squirt on his cock. A long high pitched scream of his name that surely made the manor tremble. 
Your body tenses up, blood transformed in pure fire, your sweet cunny convulsing desperatly. Your eyes close shut with bright fireworks as your inner muscles undulate around Thurfian’s cock finishing to unload deep inside of you again. You feel him twitch as the last ribbon of creamy seed paints your vagina white. 
He keeps circling your clit fondly as you go down your high, prolonging your orgasm and rolling your pleasure.  
He starts kissing your shoulder gently, licking your sweat off your body.  
You huff, in desperate need of a glass of water but Thurfian doesn’t seems disposed to move off you, laying on your body like a lascivious king.  
His purr resonates loudly between the four walls of his bedroom. 
You weakly try to raise your head off the pillow and he takes the opportunity to kiss your cheek once again. 
‘’Are you alright Vutucni ?’’ 
You weakly nod, feeling shadows circling you. 
He nuzzles his nose against your cheek with a loopsided grin.  
‘’It was fantastic.’’ He praises, ‘’Did you like it ?’’ 
‘’Yes …’’ You sob, laying your head back on the pillow. 
‘’Vutucni ?’’ 
And the darkness takes you… 
You yawn and open your eyes… To discover you are not in your room but Thurfian’s ? 
You start back at that realization, only to hit a body behind your back. You turn your head to discover Thurfian sleeping soundly, hugging your naked body, embracing it tight with his long arms around your tummy. 
You look around to see both of your clothing tidied up and a glass of water waiting for you on your bedside table. 
You turn in his arms, observing his relaxed features. He looks so different from his usual self, more moving and at ease. 
He didn’t throw you out. He kept you in his bed with him for the first time… Letting you see that secret aprt of him. 
You simply cannot help yourself but tracing his features with your fingers delicately, the softness of his forehead ridges, the point and curve of his nose, the delicateness of his  eyelashes and the sharpness of his cheekbone, the hollow of his cheek, the perfection of his jaw and the plump of his lips. 
‘’Are you having fun ?’’ He sighs. 
You squeele in surprise as he slowly opens his eyes to meet yours. 
‘’Good morning your Venerante.’’ You greet, disapointed to have been busted. 
He grips your hand before you can take it away to kiss your palm and leans in to take your cheek to kiss your lips. Sweet kisses for a sweet morning. 
Thats when you realize the sun pouring in the bedroom. 
‘’Fuck! What time is it!?’’ You shout, jumping on a seating position, parting from his kiss,‘’ I have a shift this morning!’’ 
You go to leave the bed but Thurfian grasps your arm and pulls you back in his embrace. 
‘’Thurfian ! We both have work, you more than me!’’ You try to reason him. 
‘’And we will get to it.’’ He holds you down, ‘’But for now let’s enjoy. It’s been so long since I had a day off…’’ 
You try to wriggle your way out but he snarls and rolls on top of you, capturing your lips in a ravaging kiss, holding your wrists above your head in one hand. 
‘’Do I need to fuck you into unconsciousness again ?’’ He taunts, his long hair framing his gorgeous face. 
You just shake your head silently with pursed lips. 
‘’Good. Remain.’’ 
‘’I have work to do.’’ You insist. 
‘’Your workday is adjourned. Today your Patriarch demands your undivided attention.’’And he leans to kiss you again, brushing his hot loins agaisnt yours.

ok we watched the tng pilot. let's get into it
data is my best friend on this show and i love him
i liked riker but jonathan frakes looks like a baby without facial hair. he's gotta grow that in. also, at one point he asked someone a question and i got really excited. he should ask more people more questions i think thats what jonathan frakes was born to do. that and sit in chairs with style
also liked geordi even though we only saw him for 3 seconds and worf even though same.
the sections with q draaaaaaagged. ik people like q and whatever he has going on with picard but i'm just not there yet. this "humans are NOT savages anymore" plotline has been played out in tos many times to better effect
actually shocked picard was such a dick. idk why i was expecting him to be more kind maybe i was projecting professor x onto him?? but he kinda sucked lol like what was EVEN going on w his little pissing contest with riker
love and light, there should not be children on a starship. space is fucking dangerous. they're literally boldly going where no one has gone before. these kids could get hurt
the ship??? splits?????????? IS THAT LEGAL????
ok, furthermore, sorry, speaking of kids, not to be a misogynist but out of the 3 ladies (troi, crusher, and yar) i dislike 2 of them. love and light to deanna troi but i really hope she gets something to do besides emote and go OH THE PAIN...her look was slay. i understand completely how she turned women gay. give her something to do. give her a chance. i know she could be good.
i didn't mind dr crusher until she let her kid on the bridge even though you're not supposed to do that and they told him to touch nothing and he proceeded to touch everything and then she got mad when picard got mad. picard spent 70% of this episode being a dick and the one time he was justified she was like :/ wow you're such a dick. lmao. girl come on he literally said don't touch anything he was already being nicer than he had to be. the child was in the wrong children shouldn't even be on this ship
also they talk about wesley like he's their affair baby. idw if its true but nobody tell me. let me believe it. wesley crusher destined to suffer through male pattern baldness
also, i can see now why you're not supposed to date your ship mates. dating them is fine but being exes with them is excruciating and we had TWO PAIRS this pilot
anyway. tasha yar was rad i DID love her.
it's weird though how many of them use first names...in tos sometimes they didn't even use last names, only titles. spock called bones "doctor" almost exclusively. so riker calling geordi geordi after like 5 minutes of knowing him was a little weird
i cried when bones showed up. sue me. his prosthetics were terrible and i already miss him so much.
SPACE JELLYFISH. that part was good
overall both the adventure and the interpersonal stuff was a little ????? which is like. you can flop on one or the other. i DO have faith it will get better but i feel kind of lukewarm on it so far
there's a lot of direct counterpoints to tos, but it's shuffled JUUUST enough so it feels like it isn't copying tos's homework word for word but rewording it to trick the teacher. for example, data is like spock in that he doesn't understand emotions or whatever, but it's actually the inverse because spock understands and pretends not to, while data truly doesn't understand but wants to. then you have deanna troi who's sort of filling in for the other thing spock used to do, which is give us general impressions about unknown alien life, but she SPECIFICALLY does it through emotions so she doesn't resemble spock too much. the captain and first officer have a lot of scenes together but they're tense so it doesn't look too tempting to the slash fans. the doctor is still a bit grumpy but she's a woman this time. they don't use tricorders but geordi's special prosthetic helps them see all that shit anyway. it's tos but shuffled. lmao that it took 2 people to replace spock <3
anyway my favorite part, aside from the part bones was in, was when riker and data talked in the holodeck. and riker was like actually yeah the fact that you're a machine DOES make me uncomfortable. and data is like well i am superior but i'd like to be human actually! and you could see the little gears in riker's head turning and later he called data friend. i liked that and i love data. i love data he's very important even though the pilot wasn't good i think i would keep watching no matter what for data. and i knew it would be like that.

ZB1 as types of simmers
🍀 ☘ 🍀 ☘ 🍀 ☘ 🍀 ☘ 🍀 ☘ 🍀
Pairing(s): none
Genre: crack
Word Count: 1.5k
Trigger warnings: in-game violence, death, a Murphy bed-related incident, Gyuvin's is a little unhinged but then aren't we all?
Tagged: @taerrrrrae @i05wook
🍀 ☘ 🍀 ☘ 🍀 ☘ 🍀 ☘ 🍀 ☘ 🍀
🤯 Jiwoong
too many saves
He tries to commit to just one household
Spends hours perfecting their personalities and outfits and tells himself he's going to play with then until the end :D
He's got some cute ideas for when his sims are elders and have grandkids
Tries to level up their skills and careers and gives them the perfect house he got from the gallery
And then he's on week 4, his sims got married, they've had a baby and he's… bored?
So he creates a new save for a new family who are totally different and he tells himself this is the save to end all saves
Before he knows it, he's 40 save files down and he hasn't a clue what was going on in a single one of them
But he'll definitely go back and play them all, he swears!
📖 Zhang Hao
the storyteller
Hoho you thought this would be Matthew? No, this man LIVES for the drama I'm telling you
He creates an elaborate storyline for each and every sim he creates
Sometimes he surprises even himself with the plots he creates sometimes
His sims were happily married and living life and then one day he was like "guess what? This one is gonna have an affair with a married sim"
Love affair child incoming?? When he realises he's like "Wait this is perfect this is like a drama"
The type to do challenges like rich to poor or poor to rich because there's so much character development possibilities there
Is he going to make his sims suffer? Yes. Could their lives be a kdrama spanning 12 seasons? Also yes
At this point he could be a streamer, and he'd be pretty successful too because his streams would take the wildest turns
🔨 Hanbin
building whiz
He probably has all the packs (or most of them, minus maybe a couple kits he doesn't care for) and maybe some cc but not much
Probably has a YouTube and/or insta account where he posts screenshots and videos of his builds and they're always out of this world
How does he come up with all of these designs like.. who thought of using platforms like that??
Watches a lot of build hacks by other simmers and always makes sure to mention them if he uses their ideas
Bless Hanbin and his never-ending patience. No offence but nobody else wants to sit there for 3 hours placing debug pebbles to make them look pretty
The premade houses make him shake his head because the exterior deserves so much better!! So he renovates the inside to make it prettier
Will collaborate with Gunwook where Hanbin builds the shell and landscapes and Gunwook does the decorating
There's no type of build he won't try, he wants to always try new styles and techniques, and sometimes goes back to improve his own builds?? Even though they're already stunning
🕵️‍♂️ Matthew
lore obsessive
Doesn't care about his own sims, he's just trying to solve mysteries out here
His sims only read all the books that reference sims lore of past and present wishes he could read it too and goes feral if there's a popup with a piece of lore
What really happened to Bella Goth? Did she die? Was she kidnapped by aliens? Did she run off with a secret lover? Is she trapped in an alternate dimension?? Is.. is he Bella Goth?
How exactly did the mother plant come alive? He just has to know.. surely it was created by someone and he's gonna plant bugs on everyone to try and get the inside info me-core
What about Lady Mimsy and Bernard? Was the fire an accident or on purpose? He has at least 73 theories on what happened that night
The type to annoy all his friends by debating sims lore as if it's a real-life unsolved mystery
You better believe he also eats up the werewolf lore, he will collect books and treasures just so he can find out what's up with Greg
How does he even sleep at night? (Spoiler: he doesn't)
🙋‍♂️ Taerae
the self-insert
Makes himself in nearly every save (sometimes he makes himself buff or have a bigger butt or something but it’s always Tae)
Sometimes he makes his skills match his, and other times he’s like “might make myself a rocket scientist 🤷”
If he has a crush, then he’ll make them as well, taking his time to make their sim perfect
Literally cries if the game says they have anything less than ‘amazing’ compatibility because.. They’re literally made for each other, how could this happen to him??
Makes them ultimate relationship goals because he’s living vicariously through this sims game right now
Will quit and reload his game if something goes wrong, like if they reject his hug or they flirt with someone else. Yes, he’s just that petty
And if things don’t go well with his crush irl then uhhhh breakup?? Or maybe he’d delete the sim and make himself a new crush lmao me-core p.2
Makes his sim adopt about 5 puppies and it will make his day more than any relationship could ever (will talk to them as if they’re real, too)
🃏Ricky
the wildcard
He's not trying to make his sims' lives a living hell, he really isn't
They have the perfect lives and things are going great, nothing could go wrong.. right?
Next thing he knows, his sim is proposing and they get hit by a meteor or something - time to reload!
His sim goes out on a bachelor party, dancing away and having drinks, all the usual jazz
When his sim hears a joke and dies laughing :D ... what
Or they randomly get bitten by a vampire and burn to a crisp because there's suddenly a heatwave in winter????
Buys a Murphy bed to save some space. His sim is about to go to bed after an exciting day and WHAM! It crushes him to death. On the first night
Honestly the best thing for him right now is to switch his pc off and lay down in bed
🗡 Gyuvin
the CallMeKevin (iykyk)
He's all up in EVERYONE'S business. Everyone.
Probably blackmails all the other sims for fun (or simoleons) let's face it, it's both though
Is enemies with most of the townies because he just decided to smack a bitch for no reason
He finds a sim with ugly fashion sense? He sets their house on fire. Get better sense next time smh
Someone flirts with his lover/spouse/crush? Cue a cute ladderless swimming party 🥳
Flirts with married sims and breaks up their relationships because he was bored 💅
Oh? A sim didn't like his joke about llamas? He's gonna build them a lovely little maze for them to run around until they meet grim <3
If he likes them a little, though, he might put them to work in the basement crafting for money. Might.
🛍 Gunwook
CC collector
I’m honestly surprised at how his pc hasn’t set itself on fire by now with all of the cc he’s downloaded
Has to constantly delete his pictures and sometimes other games to make space for his cc obsession
He’s got everything, from hair and eye colour swatches to cushions for his sims’ sofas
If he’s decorating a house or making a sim and it’s not perfect then he’s hunting down the perfect cc to add to his collection
But let’s face it… his games are always perfect. He has the kind of houses and sims that make players like me cry because we could never
Somehow he remembers the names of every piece of cc he uses??? Like someone asks him where he got something from and he’s like “oh yeah it’s (set name) by (creator), I’ll send you the link right now”
The thing that breaks his heart the most is when there’s an update and it breaks his cc because now he has to get rid of it, but most of the time he can just redownload so that mends his little heart
Wants to learn how to make his own cc so he can make new swatches because that shade of yellow is slightly too bright for his sims’ house
👑 Yujin
Mod fanatic
He used to play the game just as it was, but then he was watching others play and saw them using fun mods
First downloaded a simple mod, like one that adds a few new hobbies for his sims
This honestly changes his life, his games will never be the same ever again
And that's how his mod collection begins, with just one small mod, and then whenever he's feeling spicy, he adds another
He gets bored with stuff like the jobs quite quick because he's tried it all, so he finds mods to give his sims more careers
And then when he's tried all of them, he'll add more (sometimes he's not that keen on a mod and deletes it, but not very often)
His favourite by far, though, is the royalty mod because he can make himself king (as he should) and rule over his peasants
Hanbin catches Yujin making him as a peasant whenever he's upset with him, like he refused to buy him ice cream or something… yeah he just closes the door and leaves him be

Thinking about adding a few paragraphs near the end of Two-Way Mirror Mountain (remember, this is in the context of Star Trek):
Sometimes, the next god-like being you meet is different from the first.
The trauma responses that you learned from that first encounter maybe don’t apply. But how do you know?
Honestly, the same is true of other people.
Occasionally, you meet a person who’s had a lot of trouble. They maybe haven’t learned to see other beings as fellow people, or perhaps they haven’t developed the skills to manage their own trauma or neurological idiosyncrasies. There are a myriad of explanations, but the result is that they may unpredictably lash out at you. Hurt you.
And if that’s your first experience with people, because, say, it’s your mother, it’s going to make it pretty hard to trust other people yourself.
But that doesn’t mean other people aren’t trustworthy.
And I don’t think we can even say for certain the stakes are any different in that comparison. A violent parent, whether they are malicious about it or not, is just as capriciously deadly to a child as a god-like being can be to us.
Our first encounter with such a being was Charlie Evens, a human imbued with such power, raised by a group of Thassians who had been so divorced from mortal affairs for so long, they didn’t know how to teach him to respect people who don’t have his powers.
And now we’ve met Phage. A being that acknowledges its power, but allows itself to be restricted and psychologically injured by its minors for the sake of maybe keeping them safe a d letting them learn. A being that says it can destroy life at the whim of a thought, but also says it’s a person and genuinely wants to know how your day went.
Maybe to beings like Charlie and Phage, we are like curious hornets flying around in our star ships with photon torpedoes. We can sting the things they care about. We seem dangerous, but can’t really hurt them, and they can crush us with a single panicked blow.
Only, the difference is that we can talk to them and they talk back. We might not always understand each other, but sometimes it’s enough.
Maybe we’re more like toddlers than infants.
Or, is our spoken language to it like body language is to us when we interact with a baby? Not the entire range of possible communication.
But, what strikes me is that they sometimes do act like parents to us. Or, at the very least, enthusiastic life-loving scientists examining an insect and not actually being dispassionate about it, but instead urging us on to solve the puzzle we've encountered. To reach across the gap in, say, a picnic table. If they're truly our ancestors, though, this makes sense. They have motive to look after us.
What we have to remember is that Phage, specifically, is not humanity's ancestor. Or the ancestor to any life in this particular galaxy.
If we can encounter it and walk away not only unscathed but enlightened, that seems significant. The bridging of a gap that is truly alien.
What does that say about us? What does that say about the nature of life in general?

hello love! Can I please request a somewhat spicy sub!chat noir x reader? Maybe where the reader is kinda feeling him up and leaving him hickeys and he’s a purring and moaning mess? Maybe he’s begging her to keep going and who is she to say no to such a sweet baby kitty? If that’s not too much of course😌 tysm
Hello bb ! I hope that this satisfied your sub! Chat needs hehe (i know it satisfied mine so) I really love how this came out and maybe i’m willing on continuing another part from here) Thank you so much for this request ! <3
Pairing: Chat Noir X Reader
Warnings: NSFW, characters are aged up in college here :), swearing.
Tags: Sub!chat, Dry humping, begging.
This is how it all went down. He saved you from an akumatized villain. He flirted. You flirted back. Then you guys started hooking up.
You didn’t understand why Chat Noir would do this with a civilian but like every other person on this planet, he has his needs. He would knock in a pattern on your window so you knew it was him and you would let him in, you’d talk for a bit, ask each other about your day until one of you breaks and pushes the other on the bed or against the wall. He was good in bed. Very good. You knew you’d never grow tired of this affair. To top it all off after you both finished you’d sit in bed and talk about all sorts of things. Aliens, Conspiracy theories about the media, gossip about people and sometimes he’d even play Mario Kart with you.
There were no strings attached. You both made it clear from day one. There couldn’t be. You both didn’t have the time for a relationship, you both didn’t have the energy for one so you simply stuck to the title ‘fuck buddies’ until one of you decides to back out. This night was different though. A smile didn’t appear on your face when you hear the familiar knock on your window because you were stuck cussing at your computer screen and rubbing your head in frustration. You had an essay to explain Shakespeare and his works but for some reason you kept deleting all that you’ve typed because you couldn’t put your thoughts into words.
He knocked again, quickly this time. “I know you’re there, beautiful.” His voice was muffled through the glass.
You huffed and put your laptop on the bed before stomping to the window. You opened it and were met by the hero grinning at you. You, on the other hand, didn’t have a pleased look on your face.
“I’m not in the mood Chat.” You state and were about to close the window again but he held it to stop you from closing it.
“Ma Belle, did I do something wrong?” He asks, a frown on his face.
You shake your head. “No, I just have this stupid essay that I’ve been trying to type out for the past four hours.” You sigh and make your way back to your bed, rubbing your temples.
He follows you inside and closes the window behind him.
“Maybe I can ease your stress for a little bit.” He says, a smirk on his face.
You simply shoot him a glare and he chuckles nervously, putting his hands up in defense.
“Okay. No sex. Got it.” He sits beside you and looks at what you’re typing.
“You know you can leave right? If you’re horny you can go to your other side bitches.” You say as you type away, your eyes glued onto your screen.
Chat purses his lips, like he held himself back from saying something and shook his head.
“Maybe I came here for some company.” He says.
You snort and chuckle. “Yeah right.” You say sarcastically and look at him, but he wasn’t smiling. You gulp and your smile fades away. Did he seriously come over because he feels lonely?
His face was leaning closer to your and you were leaning closer too. No. You had to finish this stupid essay.
“Stop distracting me kitty.” You whisper and kiss his nose quickly before looking back at the screen.
He groans and falls back on the bed, playing with the pillow.
“I can help you if you’re writing about Shakespear, I wro-“ He stops himself from talking and you turn around, quirking your eyebrow at him.
“You wrote an essay like this?” you questioned.
He visibly gulps and shakes his head.
“Do you go to college?” You question further.
He chuckles nervously. “You know I can’t tell you that mon ange.”
You stare at him for a moment before looking back at your screen. You decided not to pry further, he seemed uncomfortable talking about his personal life and you decided to respect his wishes.
Your phone started to ring and you see that it’s your friend from college Marinette. You pick it up.
“Hey Mari.” You say as you type.
“The deadline has been changed to next week!” She exclaims happily.
You were filled with rage.
“what?” You deadpanned.
“Yeah apparently some students asked to change it because they were having difficulties so he changed it to next week instead of tomorrow morning.”
“I literally asked him to extend the deadline three days ago and he refused. I swear to god I want to kill this son of a bitch” You groan and clutch your fist in anger.
She sighs, “I know girl, but hey at least you’ve got more time on your hands!”
Marinette always tried to be positive when she could and you appreciated that but honestly you needed to vent. “Yeah, thanks for letting me know Mari.”
“No problem! Bonne nuit.”
“Bonne nuit.” You sigh out before you end the call.
You groan out in frustration and shut your laptop.
“What happened?” Chat asks.
You get out of your bed and start to pace around.
“I have been working on this essay for the past four days, knowing very well how stupid it was that the deadline was only five days for a two thousand word essay on fucking Shakespeare and when I ask to extend the deadline, the son of a bitch replies with an angry email saying theres enough time and that im just lazy.” You finally breathe and chat was about to say something but you cut him off.
“But when his privileged French pupil ask him to extend the deadline of course he agrees and you know what, I think it was Adrien fucking Agreste who asked him because hes the fucking pretty model boy who has everybody on their knees for him just because of his high status.” You sit down and without realising you start talking about a different subject.
“Yeah, I get it, everybody wants to fuck the pretty blond guy with money, I would too but at least I don’t look like a thirsty bitch every time he talks to me, some girls in my damn college have literally no chill and I swear to god one day I want to make him my bitch, make him weak for me to show those bitches what i’m capable of.” You were breathing heavily at this point and your face was flushed red.
You always thought Adrien was attractive, everyone did but whenever he talked to you, you responded normally to him unlike other people who constantly laughed at everything he said to try and get in his pants. He was a good guy but he was too well known for his own good and it made you uninterested in him. You thought he was out of your league, that’s what those french bitches told you at least. They belittled you just because you’re foreign - you knew they were just jealous that Adrien was always the one to come up to talk to you unlike them.
That was enough ranting for now. You look at Chat who was staring at you wide eyed, his cheeks glowing red.
“You don’t need to say anything, it’s just-“ You look down at his body and notice something. “Chat..why are you hard?”
He crosses his legs over the other awkwardly to try and hide it. “W-What are you talking about?”
You stand up and walk over to him and he walks back until he’s pressed against the wall.
“What? You get hard thinking about me making someone weak?” You whisper to him and he looks away from you. “You want me to do the same to you kitty?” You kiss his ear and he shudders, nodding slowly. Your hand moves down from his chest to his belly and your lips move from his ear to his jaw. Chat tilts his head back and a frenzy of purrs emerge from his parted lips. He was aroused, in a state of euphoria even with your small, light touches. Your hand moved lower until it reached down to the tent he had in his suit. It was painfully tight for him. Your fingertips lightly brushed over the bulge and he cussed under his breath.
“Fuck.” He whispered while you continued to touch his clothed erection and lick up his neck. He kept purring and moaning at the same time. You loved seeing him worked up like this. Your lips latched on to a certain spot on his neck and you sucked on it harshly, nibbling at it when you got the chance and putting more pressure with your hand against him.
He was a mess, grinding against your hand and breathing heavily.
“Ma Belle – merde,” he couldn’t even speak without stuttering. “I want more, please.” He begs and you look up at him, noticing the red mark on his neck and feeling very pleased with yourself.
“More what, kitty?” You whisper and remove your hand from where it was.
He groans in frustration.
“More – I-I want you to touch me more.” He pleads. “Please.”
You smirk at him and pull him to your bed, pushing him back on the bed and getting on his lap. Before he could react you put your lips on his and start to grind on top of him.
He moans against your lips and throws his head back, holding onto your hips for support. You could tell that he wanted to take his clothes off but you wanted him to come right then and there.
Your hips move against his, the friction pleasing you the same, causing you to moan but grin at the worked up blond beneath you.
“Shit, shit I’m close.” He whimpers and closes his eyes, moving his own hips with yours to get more pleasure.
It felt so good but you knew you couldn’t finish with him, maybe you could continue after but your hopes disappeared when you heard the beeping coming from his ring.
“Mon Ange I-“
“Shut up and come for me kitty.” You groan out and quicken your movements causing him to part his lips and hold onto you.
His body shakes and he spews out cuss words in French while he comes undone, thrusting his hips up and whimpering.
You’re both breathing heavily, looking at each other both dazed and tired. You were about to lean in for another kiss but his ring starts beeping furiously.
You hop off of his lap and watch as he groans while he gets up, uncomfortably moving because of the mess he made between his legs.
“I’m sorry I cant finish you off.” He says, pouting at you.
“It’s okay Chat, I think you’ve done enough today.” You wink at him and he chuckles bashfully.
“Until next time Mon ange!” He says and opens the window.
“Bye Kitty.” You blow him a kiss and with that he’s off.
Maybe you could actually finish yourself off to the thought of him being a mess for you but before you could even do anything, your phone beeps and you see a notification from Adrien Agreste.
 “Did you hear that they moved the deadline for the Shakespeare essay? Pissed me off tbh.”
It was like he knew you accused him of something and to top it all off this was the first time he’s ever really texted you. It was weird but maybe you shouldn’t think much of it. Right?

The Brothers and Side Characters Play the Sims
I don’t know what possessed me to make this but WHATEVER. I’ve been playing the Sims since I was a wee little girl, and I’ve seen my fair share of weird Sims stuff that I feel would fit these bozos perfectly.
My Sims have a Functional Family Life Because I Don’t (Lucifer)
God dammit Levi’s obsessed with another game... ugh.
Spends 5 minutes in Create-a-Sim and hops into a starter home.
Lucifer’s the type to start with all the average stuff and then build their stuff up as his sim gets promotions.
It’s just... so peaceful...
...he’s adopting a dog.
Look at his new little virtual family... his sim-kids are self sufficient and getting A’s in school, his Sim spouse MC or Diavolo take your pick loves his Sim-self, his sim-dog-
WAIT NO- THE DOG’S AN ELDER?!
AAAAAAAAAAAAA-
...
He’s fine. It was just a virtual dog. *sniffle*
He’s now spending his free time drinking Demonus and playing the Sims.
What’s a mod? Levi why does your sim have gun?
Behold, My Gorgeous Home... It’s a Box (Mammon)
Mammon, like the rest of the HOL, is mooching off of Levi’s Origin account.
“AW SHIT! This house looks awesome! I’m gonna build it for Sim-me to live in!”
Mammon proceeds to build a box with rooms. Yay...
He just picks the funnest sounding job if he picks any job at all for his Sim. That’s how he ended up making 9 dollars an hour in the criminal career.
Didn’t stop Mammon from buying that solid gold bathroom set from Get Famous... a box with solid gold bathrooms.
His Sim is broke send help-
“Leviiiiiii my sim needs money... the people my sim kidnapped and is forcing to paint aren’t making enough money...” “Ugh... press control shift C and type ‘motherlode’.”
...Levi made a mistake.
“FUCK YEAH! MOTHERLODE!”
His sim’s life is so chaotic, he has a piranha pool that his sim has almost died in twice, the sim is carrying on several torrid love affairs, his sim got struck by lightning, his sim has nearly died in a grilled cheese making accident twice... in the same day.
At least once Sim-Mammon and Sim-MC get married things calm down a little.
Mammon finds out what custom content is and proceeds to download EVERYTHING HE CAN FIND.
And now he’s asking Levi why his computer is running so slow.
Expansion Pack King (Leviathan)
He got into it back when the Sims 2 was new, he’s a veteran fan.
“Bro remember when Agnes Crumplebottom would show up and whack the shit out of your sims if they were flirting?”
“Remember when that witch would show up randomly on the lot you were on if you had Makin’ Magic?”
“Remember when Bella Goth was abducted by aliens and we just... didn’t question it?”
He whines about the Sims4 and how crappy it is but still buys every expansion pack, game pack, and stuff pack.
This boy watches like 40 hours of built tutorials and ends up sobbing over his weird roofs.
“WHY DOESN’T IT LOOK AS NICE AS THE ONE I’M LOOKING AT?! THIS ISN’T FAIR!”
The mod folder is so full istg-
Levi gets custom content for the sole purpose of making his favourite fictional characters.
This is why Henry and the Lord of Shadows are married and Ruri-chan and Sim-Levi are roommates.
Oh my god they were roommates-
Levi also added his brothers to the world and uh... Sim-Mammon died in a tragic pool accident F.
Levi then proceeded to befriend the Grim Reaper.
He’s anxiously awaiting the release of Paralives.
Wait Gameplay? In This Build Simulator? (Satan)
Satan’s here to build and leave. Gameplay who?
Our favourite bundle of rage is a master architect and the amount of followers on the Gallery he has shows it.
He takes up those build shell challenges and always ends up making them look positively perfect.
Asmo’s always using his houses, and Satan often takes requests when he gets bored.
No Mammon, he reserves the right to refuse to build a golden castle for you- YOUR SIM HAS 40 SIMOLEONS-
No mods, no CC, he’s building with what EA gave him.
...and EA gave him debug objects, and he’s not going to explain how to get them.
The one time he did actually play with a family... it was one sim and seven cats.
He tries to play without cheats... and ends up getting frustrated and turns on cheats.
All hail the Pets Expansion Pack.
Custom Content Soap Opera (Asmodeus)
Asmo spends 5 hours in Create a Sim then just... clicks out of the game.
That’s how it goes most of the time, buuuuuut when he gets super invested in a family he’s made, boy howdy is he INVESTED.
Sim A is carrying on an affair with Sim C who’s in love with Sim B who’s married to Sim A but Sim D wants to kill Sim A and C even though they’re the illegitimate child of Sim C-
When Asmo realizes that in the Sims 4 he needs to manufacture all the drama himself and he can’t just sit back with a glass of wine and watch the fireworks, he switches to the Sims 2 and 3.
“...why is this old lady beating up my Sim..?”
He immediately recoils in horror upon seeing how ugly the Sims are pre Sims4.
HE NEEDS TO FIX THIS-
Ah, there we go, perfect. Custom Content to the rescue!
He ends up remaking the entire world just so he doesn’t have to look at weird looking Sims.
Asmo is the only one to have finished a proper Legacy Challenge, but it gets crazy chaotic after gen 3.
“My sim just got abducted by aliens and now he’s pregnant- WHAT?!”
He has about 40 saves and only two he actually plays.
Just a Big Ol’ Happy Family (Beelzebub)
Beel found the game, proceeded to make everyone in create-a-sim to the best of his abilities, and made everyone get along.
That’s why Sim-Lucifer and Sim-Belphie are on a swing set together, they’re friends :D
“Hey Luke do you think you can make this?” “I-is that a cake shaped like a hamburger?” “Yes. Please make.”
He took one look at the cooking options and decided to max out his Sim’s cooking skill to unlock all the options.
Beel proceeded to drool all over his keyboard. Gross...
Boy howdy did he have some crazy dinner suggestions!
Overall, very wholesome Sim-life, except for the time Sim-Levi died because the toilet caught fire, don’t worry, Sim-Beel knows how to make ambrosia.
All is good in the Sim save...
...until Sim-Beel ate pufferfish nigiri and fuckin died-
Wait Did I Not Pause- (Belphie)
Huh, this game looks fine... I’ll play for a little- *SNORE*
Belphie makes some sims, plops them into a starter home, plays for an hour, then falls asleep.
He wakes up five hours later to absolute carnage.
Three sims have died because someone decided to make Mac and Cheese and the oven caught fire, the kids were taken away by social services, and the dog ran away.
“...heheh, holy shit everyone look.”
He doesn’t play often, but when he does, death occurs. He has found out every death method for every game from Sims 2 to 4.
And that INCLUDES the Sims Medieval! You guys remember that game?
Sometimes it’s not intentional, but Belphie got bored with the totally normal life his sims were living and decided to spice it up.
“Why are the ghosts breaking my showers..?”
Help There’s a Bug- (Diavolo)
The Crown Prince started playing when he noticed Lucifer was playing it.
He was immediately obsessed.
Dia mostly plays the Sims Medieval because he likes the feeling of achievement after completing a quest!
“Barbatos... why isn’t my Sim completing their task? The icon won’t show up.” “My lord it appears the game is bugged.” “:(“
No one thought to tell Diavolo that EA doesn’t plan on offering bug support to a game made in like... 2009
This doesn’t matter! Look at how great his kingdom is doing- oh no his hero has the plague-
He plays through the Pirates and Nobles expansion and manages to get the peaceful ending, he’s so proud of himself.
“MC! Look! My Monarch’s sword is permanently on fire and I’m fighting an evil wizard!”
When he does play the other Sims games he’s pretty basic, though, he does a great job at furnishing!
Dia gets crazy sad when his Sims die... he turns off aging.
Builder no. 2 (Barbatos)
Barbie doesn’t have time for this... but when he does, he builds.
No create a sim.
No playing the game as intended.
Just builds.
It’s relaxing, okay? A nice little suburban house he’s never going to play in, maybe a treehouse, maybe a big Hollywood Mansion...
The only time he actually plays the game outside of build mode is when someone needs his help to fix something in-game.
He does download custom content build items if he feels bored by the current selection.
Oh Crap What Am I Doing?! (Simeon)
Help him. Please.
He’s so confused.
“Luke, why is my sim upset?” “He’s hungry, Simeon.” “Oh, how do I fix that?” “...Simeon-”
There’s a toilet in the middle of the living room.
The fridge is facing the wall.
There’s no bathtub or shower.
The house is on fire- there is no god- AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA-
Okay, once he gets the hang of it he’s sitting pretty. His sims have good jobs, the kids are getting good grades, everything’s fine.
...
But Simeon won’t forget the nightmares.
What Even is This Save? (Solomon)
Solomon’s save is the definition of chaos.
One sim’s a vampire, the other is a spellcaster that really wants to fight the Callientes for some reason, there’s one normal sim that’s always sick for some reason,
It gets weird, confusing, and horrible.
Just how Solomon likes it.
His house makes no sense, like, what even is architecture?
Money cheats are needed because Solomon‘a goal of chaos and confusion is proving to be kind of expensive.
Square up Mortimer Goth, Solomon’s sims are here to steal your weird knight statue that’s worth a shit ton of simoleons for NO REASON.
He joined the scientist career for the sole purpose of getting to the alien planet and kidnapping adding an alien to the household via cheats.
The vampire ended up dying on their wedding day because Solomon forgot that he gave them the sun weakness.
Oh well, the ghost got added to the household! VAMPIRE GHOST!
The Child (Luke)
Before you say Luke’s too young to play the Sims, you should know that I was nine when I first started playing, and I turned out fiiiiiiiiiine.
He’s just happy to be playing.
Look, his sims are gardening :D
Look, two of them are getting married :D
Look, they had a baby :D
Look, his sims are building a rocket ship :D
Look, his sims’s rocket just crashed-
The concept of death hit the little angel right in the face that day.
“*sniffle*... my sims...”
Don’t worry, with tears in his eyes, Luke quit without saving and everything was fine!
Speaking of My Sims, Luke played MySims Sky Heroes and that was when Luke had his first bout of gamer rage.
MC came over to hang out with Solomon and Simeon, and in the distance they could just hear:
“WHAT DO YOU MEAN MY TIME WASN’T FAST ENOUGH TO CONTINUE THE STORY!? I’LL SHOW YOU FAST ENOUGH TIME!”
Okay, maybe Simeon should take the game away... just for a bit... he should take heed not to be bitten by the incredibly angry chihuahua.
Bonus:
MC: Why are our Sims married?
*Insert Boy Here*: Uh... that’s weird... I have no clue why they’re doing that...

Kylan angst 8 please?
Thank you for the prompt!
This ended up being a little all over the place, so if this wasn’t what you were looking for I apologize.
It’s also my personal HC that no matter who birthed/fathered the Gaang babies, Katara was a mom to everyone. She collected kids like she collected ancient water bending scrolls 🥰
TW: Character death.
———————————————————————-
A lot can happen in a lifetime. You watch, learn to love and how to survive, how to evolve when the world around you also evolves. You watch people you love grow and move on, sometimes with you and sometimes without you. You can only watch as they grow older and older, and then the inevitable happens and they slip away from this life.
If you’re like Lin, you know that what once kept them on this earth physically is gone, their connection, their heartbeat isn’t detectable. You can’t feel their steps on the earth or the familiar energy they tend to exude. It feels like a hole has been carved out of you, something that will never truly be filled.
But if you’re like Kya, you know that there is another plane beyond this existence, that this is not in fact the last time you’ll see your loved one. The Spirit World isn’t necessarily filled with individuals that have passed away, but their energy, it’s a mild comfort knowing that they are still there in some capacity.
When Aang passed away, it ripped their family apart. Katara lost the love of her life. She was always so poised and confident and rational. When her husband closed his eyes for the last time, she was still all of those things, they just happened to take a backseat to grief. She still smiled, but it was watery and weighted down with sadness.
Bumi was concerned with his mother, making sure she slept and continued on her basic functioning during the day, although he knew that was the last thing on her mind. She was trying to be so strong for everyone, her children and family first and foremost, he wanted her to know it was ok to cry. His feelings would be put on the back burner until weeks later.
Tenzin was lost. He didn’t know how he was expected to carry on the Air Nomad legacy, not by himself, he knew that, but still. He was the last airbender…and no reassurances or hollow platitudes could help him reconcile the feeling of being so utterly alone.
Kya took charge. She announced her father’s death to the rest of the family, to the council, to the White Lotus, and to the press. She organized not only the state funeral held in Republic City, but the quiet affair on Air Temple Island, just the family. She agreed to accompany her mother to the South Pole a few months later and then years later to train the new Avatar, a spunky little girl, Southern Water Tribe through and through, eyes similar to those of her and Katara. It would be years before she could fully process her own grief.
Toph drifted away after that, retiring as Chief and leaving Lin to sink or swim. The others drifted farther still, Uncle Sokka, and then Izumi and Uncle Zuko. Bumi threw himself into his next few postings, traveling the world. Tenzin, not for lack of trying, was never the same. He became overly concerned with the propagation of the Air Nation and fulfilling his father’s wishes; eventually their separate schedules drove them apart and Pema slipped in, unnoticed by Lin.
Yes, their little family was never the same. Grief tended to do that to people, made them change their perspectives and priorities; to alienate themselves as a way of protecting what little, precious emotions they had left.
Which is why Lin is sitting in the small cove on the Eastern side of the Island. Her first instinct when things go wrong, for her personally at least, is to run. It has been two days. They returned from the Earth Kingdom…all that much worse for wear, even Lin who came out of the fight with the Red Lotus Relatively unscathed.
Kya and Bumi were still in critical condition; the last forty-eight hours had been touch and go. Tenzin was fairing better, at least he was sitting up, talking albeit slowly, feeding himself.
When the airship connected with the Island, Lin and the rest of them were met with the worried eyes of Katara. She had the healing hut already set up as a triage and trauma area, anxiously awaiting her family that she would piece back together…including the Avatar.
There was plenty of help, healers from the clinic within the city and a few that made the journey from the Southern Compound with Katara. Everyone was being taken care of, Lin could finally breathe a sigh of relief. She dodged her sister and the rest of the Krew before they would corner her, she needed time to herself, to gather herself. Her head was filled with all kinds of emotions swirling, spiraling as she tried to contain herself. She needed a cry, which meant she needed something to cover her sobs.
She hangs around Air Temple Island, doing whatever anyone needs, sometimes not even when she is asked, she just reacts. Mostly things that the air acolytes needed, she helped in the kitchen and the laundry room, sometimes even the bakery, anything to keep her busy.
She avoided Su like the plague…too raw and running on adrenaline to handle another emotional encounter with her estranged sister. She was avoiding everyone honestly, even the direct request from Aunt Katara to come see her via an acolyte.
After checking on Kya, making sure no one else was around, she picked her way down the rocky side of the cliff. She knew, even after all this time, where the opening was for the old hideout.
The rocks were smooth from the tide and waves, cool and wet to the touch. Lin ignored the sensation and sat on the rocky shelf jutting in to the water. She sat there long enough for the feeling to leave her legs and her back to protest the lack of movement. The salt spray from the ocean left a sticky film on her face, calming all the same.
She was so lost in her own thoughts that she didn’t hear the gentle swoosh of water as it connected with the sand farther behind her. Lin only realized that she was no longer alone when she picked up the faint rhythm of another heartbeat. She looked over her shoulder, the muscles in her neck pulling slightly at the strain.
Aunt Katara stared at her silently, her head cocked to the side, contemplating Lin.
‘Lin,’ she began, her voiced soft with exhaustion, ‘where have you been?’
The metalbender glanced back out at the water and shrugged her shoulders delicately. She had been on the receiving end of Aunt Katara’s love enough to know that she would continue.
‘Nobody has seen you in days.’
Lin flinched at the sadness in the older woman’s voice.
‘I’ve been on the Island the entire time, Aunt Katara.’
She heard a soft snort behind her, ‘You’ve been avoiding everyone…Suyin is worried about you.’
At that Lin scoffed.
‘I’ve been worried about you, talk to me Lin.’
She flinched again, this time at the worrisome tone her Aunt’s voice took on.
She slowly rose form her door in the rocks and walked back towards the older woman. With a wave of her hand, she created something almost resembling a couch from sand. She was grateful to have something softer to sit on and although the Master Healer wouldn’t admit, so was she.
Lin rubbed her hands on her legs, the fabric of her pants catching on the caluses of her hands. It was a nervous tick she’d had since she was younger, anxiety also made her bite the inside of her cheeks.
Katara placed her hand on Lin’s, stilling the motion and willing her to calm down. The warmth of her Aunt’s palm gave Lin the ability to take a deep breath and exhale, something she hadn’t realized she was unable to do until now.
‘Better?’ Katara asked, a small smile lifting her lips.
Lin, in an uncharacteristic display of affection, leant her head against her aunt’s shoulder, Katara’s hand coming up to caress the opposite cheek. She trialed her fingers softly over Lin’s scars, making the younger woman shiver slightly.
They sat like that for the next few minutes, Lin’s heart rate calming, syncing up with that of Katara’s. She knew her aunt’s ability to be patient and wait was legendary so she exhaled softly, and then began talking.
‘I was so scared Aunt Katara,’ she began brokenly.
The women shifted so they were once again facing none another, this time Lin took Katara’s hands in her own, her thumbs brushing over the slightly swollen knuckles. These hands had healed so many wounds and hearts, her own included.
‘I was so scared that I was bringing home more people for us…’ she hesitated, ‘for us to bury.’
The older woman inhaled sharply, the bags under her eyes seeming that much darker when they grew wet. It was then that Lin knew she had feared that too…she could only imagine what Katara had gone through, receiving the message and then waiting for the airships to dock.
The master healer smiled again, this one a little more tenuous, and pulled Lin down so she could kiss her forehead.
‘But you didn’t,’ she declared confidently.
She stared at Lin, eyes locked until she could see some of the guilt and worry disperse. Until she could see the jade irises become a little less cloudy. When she was satisfied, Katara rose from her seat slowly, encouraging Lin to do the same.
‘Now,’ she singsonged mischievously, ‘there is someone who has been awake for several hours, and has asked for you multiple times…’
———————————————————————————
She parted ways with Katara just outside the familiar door. As Lin walked through the threshold, she was immediately transported in time, back to her teenage years. Nothing in the room had changed much.
There were still an obnoxious amount of tapestries decorating the walls, some overlapping, along with the world map. In the map we’re pins that were color coordinated, for what Lin didn’t know, depicting Kya’s travels.
The vines of several plants were interlaced along the points where the ceiling and wall met, help up with mall wooden stakes. On one wall was a bay window and seat/storage compartment that Lin knew housed several different trinkets from the waterbender’s adventures. The opposite wall was taken over by Kya’s bed, it wasn’t hard stone like those found in the acolyte dorms, but luxurious down and silk.
In the center was Kya, looking much better than the last time Lin had seen her, but still tired all the same.
‘Lin!’ She gasped.
She tried to sit up and winced when she moved too quickly. This caused Lin to come closer to the bed and help her sit upright, gently placing pillows behind her back to give her some support.
“You scared me,’ Lin admitted brokenly, her voice cracking on the last syllable.
She sniffed and looked down at her lap. She could feel Kya’s eyes on her but couldn’t bring herself to look up. She felt strong yet careful fingers trail up her arm, gripping just below her elbow
"Lin," Kya said breathlessly.
Her head swiftly rose when the tone of her voice registered in Lin’s mind. Kya carefully pulled her forward, until their foreheads were pressed together. Their breath escaped theirs lips in hot puffs.
Lins eyes darted back and forth, taking in the love and devotion so openly displayed on waterbender’s features. Her vision began to cloud, the tears threatening to spill over her lashes. Kya’e eyes shifted from the iridescent green orbs that had kept her captivated all these years to the pale pink lips she'd missed just as much. She leant forward and hoped that Lin would meet her half way…pleasantly surprised when she rose to the challenge.
Her lips were as soft and pliant as she imagined. This was a declaration…an acceptance of what was to come and a promise to endure the hardships. It was an end to the previous story as well as the beginning to their next chapter, the life they should have had.
Kya closed her eyes as she felt Lin’s velvety lips cover her own, possessing but not overbearing. She groaned quietly as she felt careful hands slip in to her hair, cradling her head.
Just a quick as it began, she felt Lin begin to ease her grip and pull back slightly. She placed sweet kisses to the corner of her mouth, both eyelids, and then the tip of her nose. She leant back, gripping her cheeks softly in her hands, a timid smile graced her lips.
Unable to stand it any longer, Kya let a watery smile bloom across her face, sucking in a deep breath to compose her self. Then she let three little words slip from her tongue.
"I love you," she whispered.
The smile on Lin’s face shifted to a grin; this was right…being here with her was right…it felt natural.
Yes, it seemed a lot could happen in a lifetime.

As The World Caves In
Pairing: Steve Rogers x Stark!Fem!Reader
Summary: Steve deals with the loss of his wife after the Snap.
Rating: R?
Word Count: 3.3k
Warnings: Grief, depression, feelings of loneliness, death, graphic depiction of a death
A/N: hi yes I wanted to get this out before TFATWS got out. I have never liked the ending Steve got in Endgame, so I wanted to write a new one for him!
Tumblr media
Steve would like to say that he lost his wife like everyone else did that day.
He would love to say that she turned into ash like the rest of his teammates. He would love to say that they had some tear-filled goodbye before she turned into nothing. He would love to have that hope that might be able to come back.
But he can't.
Because she actually died that day in Wakanda. Right before his eyes.
It had happened after Thanos had tossed Steve aside. Y/N had charged at the Titan, angry at the purple being for hurting her husband. He caught her in mid-air, his golden gauntlet shimmering in the sunlight as it wrapped tightly around her throat. Steve had scrambled to stand up, his eyes on her.
Y/N coughed and sputtered, her face turning colors as she kicked, her fingers trying to pry the large gold covered fingers off of her throat. And while it felt like hours for Steve, it had only been seconds. Seconds. Seconds he had held her in their air, seconds she had suffered as the Titan cut off her oxygen. Thanos had smirked before tightening his grip, a sickening crack filling the air. Steve couldn't breathe as her body was tossed towards him. It seemed to move in slow motion, bouncing when it hit the ground.
When her body finally came to a stop in front of him, her head lolling to the side as the cloud of dust settled. Steve still had hope somehow. He prayed to the Lord above as he looked at her, hoping that she was somehow still alive. Blood vessels had burst in her eyes and blood trickled out of her mouth. There was a darkening bruise on her throat, her neck was bent at an unnatural angle. Steve had been unable to move, unable to breathe. Within an instant, she was gone. His wife, the love of his life, ripped away from him in mere seconds.
And then his friends and teammates turned into ash all around him.
The worst moment of his life was when he watched his wife die right in front of him. The second worst is having to tell her brother that she was dead.
After Tony had come down the ramp of the ship, Steve had ran over to help him down that last view steps and over to Pepper. Stark told Steve that Peter was gone and in that moment of silence that followed, Tony's eyes scanned the small group of survivors for his adopted sister. Tears sprung up in the man's eyes as he looked back at Steve. The Captain's throat constricts with emotion, tears brimming in his eyes as he just nods, unable to get the words out. Pepper ran up in that moment, wrapping her arms around Tony just as tears rolled down his face.
Y/N is the only one they actually bury. Her funeral is a quiet affair, with only the remaining members of their team and Pepper in attendance. The couple had never talked about what might happen or what they would want if either of them died. Tony tells him that she would want to be buried next to their parents, so she is. He makes sure his baby sister has the best coffin money can buy, the best headstone-everything. Her funeral is the last time Steve and Tony talk to each other.
Steve gets an apartment she would have loved. It's right around the corner from the restaurant where they had their first date and a few streets away from the cemetery. There was those big windows that Y/N had always expressed fondness over. The apartment also had built in shelves that lined one wall of the living room area, which had been another selling point for him. One day Steve hoped that he would be able to fill them with her many books and tchotchkes, but now they stood empty, the shelves gathering dust. Her collection of novelty mugs weren't in the cabinets, no they were still wrapped up in newspapers within one of the many boxes. He had planned on unpacking all of the things that had once filled their shared room at the compound, but the boxes stay in the second bedroom, all piled up in the middle of the room. He couldn't find it in himself to go through all of her old things, didn't want to be bombarded with emotions and memories.
That first year is the hardest. Learning to live without her tears him to shreds. Steve hardly sleeps, hardly eats. He spends a lot of his time alone, dwelling over what he could've done differently. Natasha tries to reach out to him, but Steve distances himself. He tells himself that he needs to do this alone, needs to try to get through it by himself. Y/N always feels like she's just out of his grasp and he prays and begs to have her back with him. His prayers go unanswered.
Natasha appears outside his door on the one year anniversary of Thanos's snap and Y/N's death, holding a bottle of vodka in one hand and Asgardian mead in the other. They sit together in the kitchen and drink as vigils and memorials take place around the world. For the first time, Steve talks about how much he misses his wife. The two heroes talk all night about each person they missed, both of them wondering aloud how were they supposed to live without them.
By the end of the second year, Steve is getting used to living without her. He hates it. He hates how much that ache in his chest has lessened. He hates that he can see a picture of her without a lump forming in his throat. Steve is able to talk about her more and starts a grief support group. Sure he sometimes wakes up and hopes she's there, but that's getting less and less frequent. Steve's afraid that his memories of her are going to slip away from him, terrified of forgetting her.
So he starts to draw her. He's desperate to hold onto every memory of her, so he fills up page after page, sketchbook after sketchbook of nothing but Y/N. The drawings aren't perfect, but he is able to cement those memories in his mind. Steve wants to make sure that he can remember her face without having to study a picture. So when he remembers something about her, he puts it onto a piece of paper. Y/N on their wedding day. Y/N when they were on the run and she fell asleep in the Quinn Jet. Y/N brushing her teeth early in the morning, her silhouette lit up by the almost golden bathroom light. Y/N the first day they met.
Natasha sees them once when she stops by to see him. One of the sketchbooks is left open on the table and she sneaks a peek when Steve goes to the other room to get a sweater. There on the page in incredible detail is a sketch of her best friend with tears in her eyes, her mouth open in shock. She doesn't know that this is the face she made when she learned that Bucky had killed her parents and Steve knew. Natasha looks away, her cheeks burning. She feels like she saw something too personal, too raw, and she shuts the journal before Steve returns.
When the third, fourth, and then fifth year rolls around- well Y/N has been gone longer than they were together as a couple. Steve has gotten used to her being gone. He's able to walk past the room holding all of the boxes without stalling. It gets easier to talk about her, easier to share stories about her to his group. He still misses her, it's just easier for him to live now. His wedding band never leaves his ring finger, needing to have a part of her with him always. Steve still loves her and he doesn't think he can ever love someone as much as he loves his wife.
And then Scott Lang reappears.
Steve wants to reverse what Thanos did, wants to bring back his friends even if that means he cannot bring back his wife. That ache in is chest returns as they put together their heist plan. Steve feels like there's a ghost following him around while he's back at the compound. His shoulders feel heavy again and he tries to put on a brave face as the people around him get hopeful. He tries to be happy, knowing that he will be getting his friends back and fixing what had happened, but he can't help but be upset.
-
Steve gets to see her when they go back.
It's after he knocks out the younger version of himself. Steve is standing over himself, breathing hard, and holding Loki's scepter tightly in his hands.
"That is America's Ass." He comments, looking behind him before back down to the unconscious man. He needs to meet back up with the others so that they can-
"It definitely is." A familiar voice calls out from in front of him. Steve stills, his breath catching in his throat before he slowly lifts his head. There she is, standing before him with a smirk on her face. Y/N is dressed in her navy blue suit, her hair messy from the battle she just went through. Her face is dirty, her lip split and there is a long cut across her cheekbone. His mouth goes dry and he's suddenly tongue tied, like he was when they first met.
Steve remembers how nervous and awkward he was when they were first introduced to each other. Y/N gave him a million dollar smile and just like that, he knew he was a goner. Steve had stumbled over saying his name, which had then made her laugh-God, that laugh. That laugh had made him warm all over, made butterflies swarm around in his stomach. And in the past five years, those butterflies had been dormant and now, now they're wide awake.
"You're not my Steve." Y/N announces as she walks towards him, studying him. Steve's heart is beating fast and he wants to reach out and hold her close, wanting to tell her how much he loves her. My Steve. God, he misses her. He misses everything about her.
"How can you tell?" He asks, a tiny smile appearing on his face. Y/N chuckles, taking seeing two Steve's surprisingly well. But then again, she had just got done fighting aliens and a literal god so he supposes that things have been weirder.
"My Steve won't even look me in the eye. He blushes when I look at him. When I look at you...you just look so sad. That's how I know you're not Loki." She answers, stopping in front of him. Steve studies her face, taking in every little detail because he knows that this is the last time he'll see her.
"I-I'm that easy to read, huh?" Steve retorts and she laughs again, nodding. God, he misses that sound. He misses her so fucking much that it makes his chest ache. Y/N's smile falters as she looks at him, watching as his smile drops.
"I'm not going to pretend what is exactly going on here, okay? Obviously you are going through something and it's pretty clear you are on a some type of mission." She tells him, motioning to the scepter in his hands. Steve looks down to his hand before looking at her. He knows that she should be calling for back up because by the way people keep speaking through her comm Y/N must know that things are going south.
"I'll bring it back, I promise." Steve replies and the smile returns to her face. Y/N glances down to the unconscious man on the floor before looking at him.
"I know you will. I never saw you, new Steve. And don't worry, I'll make sure you don't choke on your tongue." She teases, gesturing to the passed out version of himself. Steve's smile returns to his face as she continues, "But I do expect some sort of explanation when you come back."
"Of course. I'll be back before you even know I was gone." Steve says, wanting to say so many other things that he knows that he just can't tell her. He opens his mouth again when her comm once again crackles to life. Y/N's eyes widen and she gestures for him to leave. Steve's mouth snaps shut and he nods, quickly walking away.
Tony would later tell Steve when they're in 1970 that he started crying when he saw his little sister.
-
When his teammates return on the battlefield, she isn't among them. He knows she won't be coming through a portal, but some part of him still holds out hope for some reason. Yet, there is no sadness inside of him on that battlefield. No, rage has pushed all of that sadness aside, filling him up completely.
When he fought against Thanos and his army, he did so with every ounce of strength in his body. Steve wanted to avenge the death of Y/N, wanted to kill Thanos for what he did to her. Steve has never felt so angry in his entire life. He wanted to be the one who ended the Titan's life. He ignored the large gash in his arm and tore through aliens.
And in the end, it's Tony who takes out Thanos. He is the one who avenges his baby sister's death, but the price he pays his high. And Steve has to watch another Stark die.
He feels so guilty that he is alive and both of the Stark siblings are gone, both of them buried side by side, right next to their parents.
There is just so much death in his life, so much damn loss. And he's tired. Steve is exhausted. He hoped that bringing back his friends and the half of the universe that had disappeared because of the Snap would make him feel better, but it hadn't. No, instead that hurt has returned with full force. His chest feels like its about to cave in on itself, like his ribs piercing his lungs and heart-God, everything seems unbearable. All he wants is for the earth to open up and swallow him whole.
And then, he is reminded that he has to return the stones.
And while every single part of the journey is noteworthy, he saves returning the scepter for last.
Y/N is sitting beside the unconscious version of himself when he returns. She turns his head to look at him, a smile on her face. For a moment, he considers staying here with her, reliving every single moment of their life and their relationship as it happens.
But he knows that he can't.
It wouldn't be right for him to stay here with her, knowing everything that he knows. Steve has had his time with her, time that he will treasure for the rest of is life. He knows that if he returns back to his timeline, there will be a lot of hurting that he will have to go through. Steve knows that it would be so much easier to stay here with Y/N, but he won't let himself do it.
So Steve explains to Y/N why he needed the scepter, leaving out her death and the death of her brother. After he finishes, she stays quiet for a moment, processing all of this new information. He just waits and sits there.
"Don't tell me what happens, please. I want the cards to fall where they may. I-I want to be surprised." Y/N tells him suddenly, glancing at the unconscious man before looking at Steve. The Captain understands exactly what she means. She must know somehow that she ends up with him, something on his face his showing his hand. Y/N had always told him that he had a shitty poker face. A smile stretches across his face, nodding. His wedding ring-hidden under his gloves-feels so much heavier, like its weighing his arm down.
A pit of dread opens up in Steve's stomach as his time draws to an end. He thanks and apologizes to Y/N as he hands over the scepter. She just smiles, telling him not to worry about it as she puts it back into its case. He must look as upset as he feels because before he leaves, Y/N wraps her arms around him. It surprises Steve, but he quickly wraps his arms back around her. Steve holds her tightly, letting his eyes shut. He knows that this will be the last time he'll ever hold her and he just savors it, wishing that it could last forever. Wishing that he could stay here forever.
But everything has to come to an end.
When he says goodbye, he knows that Y/N doesn't understand that this is him saying goodbye to her for the last time. Steve finally gets to tell her goodbye and even though he isn't able to tell Y/N how much he loves her, it's okay. It's okay because he will be able to tell her how much he loves her one day, even if that day isn't today. They'll be reunited again. He just needs to wait.
She tells him goodbye and he takes one final look at her before he returns back to his timeline, back into a world where she's gone.
That night, he returns to his empty apartment, the silence almost deafening. That hole in his chest has reopened and he is in so much pain that everything just feels numb.
He goes through the motions of getting ready for bed, washing the day's events off of him hoping that this would also wash away the numbness, trying to pretend like nothing of importance had happened hours earlier. When he crawls into the same bed he has been sleeping in for the past five years-a bed she has never touched-he realizes how empty it is without her. He can't feel her here like he can at the Compund-No, here she doesn't follow behind him. No, this is a place she has never been so she can't be here. The apartment is suddenly too big for him-everything is too big for him. It's too big and too empty and too fucking quiet-
It's like the string that was holding him together the past five years has finally snapped and he just starts crying. The Captain's body shakes with sobs as he lays in that empty room. Steve had thought he had processed her death and grieved already, but he hadn't. Until this very moment, it had never fully set in that Y/N was dead. It was never fully real that she was gone. He knew that she was, but some part of him was still holding out hope that somehow she was going to come back. If Bucky could come back, surely she could have as well. But Y/N isn't Bucky and so she never came back.
It took until today for him to fully realize that she was gone. Y/N was gone and there was nothing he can do about it. There was no stones to gather, no traveling through dimensions for him to do. Steve had to live the rest of his life without the love of his life, in a time where he'll never belong in. That small flicker of hope that had been silently living inside of him had been snuffed out, leaving an empty dark space inside of him, leaving him cold and empty.
The only hope that remained is that they would be reunited one day in death, but until then Steve would be forced to carry around his pain where ever he went.

Tumblr media
It wasn't as if she was blind or dumb. She saw the way he treated everyone around him; whenever a single person got too close he'd push them away, consciously or not. The man loved pushing everybody's buttons as if he was playing Galaga for a living; rapidly, mercilessly, with intent. Tony Stark was not a man to whom a person would give their heart willingly.
It was her own fault she went and gave hers away, to him, of all people. And sometimes, it did feel like he loved her, in his own way. Tony would shower her with gifts and affection, cling to her whenever he wasn't away on SI business, and God, the sex was out of this world. Sometimes, she felt as if she would suddenly burst into a blinding flash of light, scalding and deafening, that would sprout from the invisible wounds his fingers left on her skin. Like fine china, she cracked little by little under his steady, tender hands.
The first time he'd ended their short, by average standards, but long - by his, relationship, it didn't come as a surprise. She had never held illusions on ensnaring the world's most notorious playboy. Younger and less jaded, she amicably agreed to get her things that very same day, blocked his number and left for an overdue vacation in the tropics. Being able to browse the gossip sites speculating on their lack of public appearances whilst sipping a Strawberry Daiquiri was a much better alternative to spending her nights holed up in rainy Manhattan, having to answer numerous "I told you so" calls from friends and relatives.
Maybe, three daiquiris should've been enough. But she'd quit smoking because he said the smell bothered him and she- well, she could do anything she wanted now. Being alone and not dating a very public figure definitely had way more perks than she previously had taken for granted in her much less exposed life. That's how the heartache began to recede: it was hard to mope when fun was calling for you by your name.
Some of Tony's character traits had migrated onto her. Which wasn't bad per se, she had been told she could use to loosen up. Her friends rejoiced in the newfound adventurousness, never missing an opportunity to go out, throw a party, go on a clubbing spree. She was game and she was enjoying it. Dolled up and eyes sparkling, the newfound confidence radiated off her like a beacon, attracting just about every single like-minded person in a five mile radius.
Tony's champagne he had sent to their table meant nothing. Her friends laughed and giggled and asked her all about the juicy details about the billionaire; as much as she searched the rowdy crowd for a familiar pair of baby doe browns, they weren't anywhere within sight. So she went back to talking and smiled as bright as the strobe lights, throwing down a whiskey shot to water the burning ache in her chest.
She found him on the dancefloor. Seconds after she stepped her foot into the mass of grinding bodies Tony was there, an equally happy and intoxicated smile on his face and arms wide open, as if they hadn't parted ways at all. She wanted to be angry with him, she really did, she wanted to snide his frivolity and the possessive way that he had the audacity to treat her.
His eyes, they were her untold weakness. She hadn't seen him so happy in months. Just once, she agreed, she'd let it slide. And so they danced, bodies accustomed to each other in the way that seemed to be impossible for her to achieve with anyone since the day that she left Tony Stark.
A splitting headache and a cold, empty bed greeted her the next morning. Thankfully, her clothes were laying haphazardly on the floor of the bedroom - the bed that was not his own but, rather, as she assumed, one of the many guest rooms in his tower.
Not the one to usually harbour shame of her very human needs, she felt like a cheap whore when she got dressed and grabbed her purse, making a beeline for the door to the elevator. As soon as the doors opened, she was greeted with a woman in a professional suit - tall, strawberry blonde and as cold as the Arctic, beautiful in the Vogue-magazine, unattainable way.
"Good morning," The woman spoke in a pleasant tone.
She wanted to retch from the false cheerfulness. "Good morning, ma'am. I was just leaving," Refusing to bow to her own shame, she flashed an equally cheerful grin towards the blonde.
"I'm Mr. Stark's personal assistant, my name is Pepper Potts," They briefly shook hands, neither of them wanting to touch the other longer than it was necessary. "There is a car waiting for you downstairs. Be sure to take the left exit."
Internally fuming, she smiled slightly wider, seeing no need to introduce herself or prolong the awkward interaction longer than necessary. "Thank you, Ms. Potts, that will not be necessary. I have arranged my own ride. Have a nice day, ma'am," With that, she pressed the button once again, entering the elevator with the expression of polite contentment glued to her face like a persistent piece of dog shit she couldn't shake off the bottom of her shoe.
Ms. Potts' façade slipped slightly - she must've been new - as the blonde ran a sharply observant look over the woman in the elevator, pulling out her phone as soon as the elevator door was halfway closed. That was quickly forgotten, her head growing clearer with each second it was pressed against the cold window of the cab she'd called on the way downstairs.
It was a mistake, a perfectly human accident that happened to the best of them. Only it left a bitter residue somewhere south of her ribcage, something acrid and viscous that even alcohol couldn't melt. The more she drank, the thicker that ball of rolled up frustration became, bleeding into her work, her relationships with her friends. It was tiresome to keep craving something so far out of her reach.
The exhaustion grew day by day, until her chest felt constricted for most part of the day and all the oxygen in the whole wide world wasn't enough. Her heartache was saved, strangely enough, by aliens - they rained down on New York city like frogs during the Plague in the book of Exodus; as if God himself was angry at the state of affairs of his favourite pet earthlings. For a time, she couldn't afford to worry about her broken heart and focused on the dilapidated city, landing her resources and skills whenever, whenever she could.
Late at night, exhausted and drained, she allowed herself to flick through the news, eagerly soaking up the new details that seemed to pop up every other day. Aliens were real, Thor was one, Captain America was alive and her ex-boyfriend was now a member of the merry band of misfit superheroes.
She had never taken his hero sidegig too seriously. Tony had some good in him, he wasn't the attention-demanding supervillain-waiting-to-happen, but neither he was hero material. The Tony she knew was akin to a hyperintelligent kid left without supervision. Consequences were a slight setback, not a surefire deterrent for this man.
Her building remained mostly intact - some cosmetic damages that were repaired quickly and did not concern her apartment at all - so she stayed in the same place, much to everyone's dismay. A good chunk of her friends had moved away from NYC as soon as they could - not that she blamed them - but the calls of her family, consisting of begging and nagging her to move states, were beginning to climb over the annoying line very quickly. More often than not, she ignored all calls that weren't from her friends or work.
It shouldn't have surprised her that Tony showed up on her balcony one night - but the shriek that left her was utterly involuntary. His armored suit was noisy and clunky, just like was expected from a huge chunk of metal. Tony's face was a ghost of the man she used to know: he was pale, the bags under his eyes were fit to carry groceries in and he'd lost more than a few pounds around his middle.
Not that she had a glow-up. Work hours were long, volunteer work was by far more exhausting and emotionally draining. With her support system scattered across the country and free hours few and in-between, she'd acquired a shrink. Nightmares went away and the sluggishness, too, thanks to a couple of convenient prescriptions. It seemed like the professionals were as clueless as any in dealing with the aftermath of an alien invasion.
"You weren't returning my calls," Tony stated in the way of hello. It was so like him, to be skipping the pleasantries and glossing over the details.
"I have your number blocked," She replied unkindly, raising an eyebrow as the suit retracted and the man, wearing worn jeans and an oil-stained tee, stepped into the twilight of her home without an invitation.
"I wanted to make sure you are alive and your home is being rebuilt in case it was demolished. Stark foundation is shouldering most of the expenses," He offered in the way of explanation, beelining for the nice whiskey she kept in a tumbler in the living room.
The snort escaped her lips before she could help it; brain chronically overtired but medicated; Adderall and weariness. He was never a good liar, only a good faker. "Why are you here, Tony?" All of it: the damages, the casualties, all of it was public record, accessible 24/7. All he had to do was open Google.
He turned around, scanning her head-to-toe, in that not-quite-convinced way. "Just wanted to see if you're okay," He tried for nonchalant but his eyes were haunted. The whiskey glass he was holding empty in seconds.
She walked up to him, staying at an arm's distance from the man, before doing a slow, sarcastic twirl. "I'm fine. Not a scratch. Was in Staten Island that day."
He nodded, not at all convinced. "Good," Before slamming the glass down with such force, she was afraid the countertop now sported a rounded indent. Fingers twitching, he pulled the woman into himself before she could utter a peep, smashing their lips together without any grace, paying no attention to the way she froze as still as a statue. "God, I missed you. Couldn't bear the thought of you dying..." He mumbled in between harshly biting the plump of her bottom lip and steering the kiss towards his wishes, hand tangled in the hair on the back of her head.
He tasted like whiskey and desperation.
She couldn't not give in. She'd felt the same way when she watched his red and gold armor fly into that wormhole, missile in tow. She'd felt the same despair clawing at her ribcage when his lifeless body flew back from it before being caught by the rabid green monstrosity.
It wasn't graceful and it wasn't pretty; feeling like a monster herself, she responded the same way he did. She shredded his clothes, she clawed his back, leaving wet crimson streaks in the wake of her nails and whispered the ugliest, nastiest truths she had denied herself for so long. He left with the promise to stay in contact and for once, he did.
Nothing was the same. Tony was far from the careless, extravagant billionaire he used to be. These days he was a cynical, analytical asshole that one-upped people even before he had a real need to do so. Both of them had changed, really. She was not the tender uptown girl either.
The nights with him were rare and long; the nights alone with her work were recurrent and longer. The tower stood out on the NYC skyline like a sore thumb, beckoning with the unattainable snipe hunt of having something stable with the world's #1 superhero, Tony Stark. Each time they met, she felt almost as dirty as the time she stood in the elevator under the scrutiny of Pepper Potts.
Even if he didn't outright hide her. She'd ran into Black Widow and Clint Barton once or twice, each of them casting a glance at her Special Visitor badge before muttering niceties and moving on with their day. It was only slightly better with the Captain: he got in the elevator two floors below Tony's penthouse at 8 AM in the morning, just as she was leaving for work - dressed in a sharp pantsuit that was not-quite on Pepper's level. The soldier must've assumed she was a high-rank employee or a friend, the tips of his cheeks blushing as he spoke a quiet: "Good morning, ma'am," In that semi-formal tone of his.
Seeing a grown man get so flustered was quite adorable. "Good morning, Captain Rogers, sir," She replied in a matching tone, humoring him.
The elevator stopped suddenly and a few employees got in, staring openly at the national icon, who had his eyebrows slanted in confusion. The woman shared his sentiment: it was Tony's private elevator. She guessed all the other ones were too full in the mornings so the tower's AI put the underused one to work.
Or, at least, that's what she tried to convince herself of anyway. It wouldn't be past Tony to get jealous over something as trivial as sharing an elevator car with Captain America.
The plateau of normalcy didn't last long. Just as she was opening her third bottle of wine for the night, laptop open on the kitchen counter and proudly displaying "Tony Stark and Pepper Potts - America's newest power couple?" article, she realised he was a coward, too. Slowly but surely, he had ghosted her, not even bothering with an explanation of his sudden unavailability, the several dates missed and even more postponed indefinitely.
They were never going to be a normal couple. She had made her peace with that, ugly and depressing - but it was real. She thought what they had was real. She finally had admitted to herself that she loved him, loved an impossible man, loved to the bottom of Hell and pitfire. The fireworks under her skin had never fully gone away, she realised as more and more ugly sobs broke from her chapped lips.
She blocked his number again and bought herself a new one, deleting the "Tony Stark" contact for good. There was more than enough work to do and the time to feel sorry for herself was sparse. And if she picked up a habit to make sure the time working was spent with proper efficiency, without soaking documents in saltwater that her eyes seemed to overproduce those days? It wasn't a big deal. She needed to get back on her feet somehow, without being dragged by a man who wasn't even present to actively be ruining her life anymore.
If anything, she thought she should feel grateful. The blinding light, the stars that exploded and shone inside her only for Tony, became something poisonous and vile. It wasn't the bitter taste of regret; rather, she felt a flash of ravenous, burning anger every time his name or his face popped up in a press article within her eyesight. Love and hate weren't that different when it came to the intensity: she basked in those newfound feelings, taking care to pick apart and neatly sort each of his perceived flaws on a cute little shelf in her overtaxed brain and fatigued heart.
It wasn't healthy. A convenient escape for the summer; a cabin far, far away from the busy New York city - she took up the offer and relocated there, being content with working remotely, drinking strawberry mimosas by the lakeside. Day by day, the clarity of her mind returned, lulled into a false sense of security by the tranquil trees slowly swaying in the breeze and wide ripples in the water.
Tony seemed to be enjoying bringing chaos into her life and making her miserable. The quinjet landed right on the neatly manicured lawn in front of the cabin, several obviously exhausted and wounded superheroes dismounting the vehicle, Tony looking sheepish but determined in the lead.
She wasn't completely unaware of the rest of the world and knew of the fiasco the Avengers recently had. Was it the half-dead, limping Widow or the baby blues of the Captain, she couldn't tell, but the woman ushered them into her house, gathering the tools needed for first aid with haste. Fate wasn't looking to give her a break.
As soon as she stepped foot in the kitchen, alone, Tony was there, looking much like that time on the balcony, baby doe browns turned up to eleven and a groveling speech prepared on demand. He'd noticed her weight loss and the ashen tone of her skin, the prominent veins and the bags under her eyes. She was as obvious as a brick to the face with her vices.
She slapped him. He winced, but stayed quiet, preparing himself for the storm - and storm him she did, keeping quiet enough for most of the team to be able to tactfully ignore the scolding Tony was getting. "I despise, you, Stark. You're a coward. Do not dare to set foot in my house ever again."
Needless to say, the superheroes departed shortly after Natasha's injuries were stabilised and frowning, disappointed Thor and Steve (they'd asked her to address them by their first names) bashfully apologized for their sudden intrusion and any discomfort they might have caused. She smiled at Steve, wide and big; refusing to admit it was done just to spite Tony, she joked and blushed in response to the Captain.
Tony did not attempt to contact her again. For some time, she lived in fear - irrational one at that - he'd appear and wreck her life one more, final time, before admiring the destruction and leaving her a steaming pile of ashes on the floor. But seasons passed and all of it faded, like a vivid, terrible nightmare.
Piece by piece, her life was getting put back together. His name stopped invoking a swarm of feelings she needed to drown just to stay afloat; there were news regarding him, another violent altercation, and she simply flicked the TV back to adult swim. New friends and new hobbies were being made; the fine cracks made by his agile fingers were being filled with the gold of newer, better discoveries.
There was always something going on in the superhero world and finally one of the topics reached her line of work: mutant rights. She'd never stopped being a volunteer after that NYC invasion, making new connections in a domain previously unexplored, it paid off in spades regarding her career growth. The connections were vital to be able to climb the corporate ladder successfully.
Stark showed up at her door three days after half of his merry band of misfits were pronounced fugitives. This time, she expected it. She knew better than to expect him to assume responsibility by himself - a quick Google search and his relationship status was listed as once again single - the Virginia Potts she knew would not have let anything like that happen. Stark was on his own.
"They betrayed me," He'd said, from behind the door she had cracked open a few inches, to make him know he wasn't welcome in her home.
"I think you know now, how I felt then," She didn't falter, ignoring the way his still freshly-bruised face darkened. "As far as I am concerned, you deserve it. Goodbye, Tony." She shut the door without waiting for his response, hearing his footsteps slowly back away as she made herself another coffee.

Viewer discretion advised.
(lol what did you except?)
Ex-Captain
Stede "Longbow" Bonnet
Personality: Kind, gentle, hot-tempered
Gender: Male
Age: 54 years old
Species: ???
Ethnicity: European
Looks: ???
Backstory: Before turning to a life of crime, Bonnet was a wealthy man that unfortunately went bankrupt after a storm ruined all crops and house. Seeing the successfulness of the pirating, he decided to become one too. Commissioning for a ship to be made. He then got himself a crew at a local tavern.
Bonnet was a terrifying looking man. No one knew what alien species he was. Yet, some would describe him looking like a horrific dinosaur with his sharp teeth on the outside. Nearly many pirates didn't want to interfer with him. Yet, he was a gentle giant. He never killed anyone during his piracy and instead chose to set the free after he raided all their Treasure. This earned him the nickname "the gentleman pirate". He swore to never kill anyone. That was until Baozhai joined his crew, where at times he wanted to strangle the woman to death. Bonnet would often butt heads with Baozhai because of her decision in murdering victims instead of letting them go. She didn't care for their lives and it was obvious that she enjoyed the brutality. Baozhai didn't like Bonnet because he was an ex-noble and thought he was only trying to get his precious comfortable life back. Bonnet wanted to get rid of Baozhai at times but couldn't because the crew loved her. She was charismatic, fierce, and determined when it came to pirating. Baozhai was everything that Bonnet wasn't. Unfortunately, his life came to an end when Baozhai killed him in a duel for the role of captain. He fought hard yet only managed to leave her with a mutilated face. Bonnet never wanted her to become Captain because he knew she would do horrible things.. and he was very, very right.
- Another nickname he earned was "long bow" because of how good of an archer he was.
- Bonnet may or may not be the same species of the future Captain Flint

Ethnicity: ???
Backstory: ???

- Ironbeard was made to be apart of navy. They made him smart, calculated, tough, and have a bold attitude.
- The robot would be often mistreated at the navy as he was never really taken seriously and the others only saw him as a piece of equipment than a person. This made him have grudge against the navy for a very long time..
- Ironbeard joined her crew around the time Baozhai took over the role of captain. He saw an opportunity to leave behind his old life and to stick it to the navy for mistreating him.
- Ironbeard quickly rose up in the ranks from cabin boy to second mate because he proved to be much more qualified for the job than any of the other crewmates on board.
- A sort of friendship sparked between Ironbeard and Baozhai. She trusted him a lot. So much so that she even shared pieces of her life with him. Ironbeard is the only person that knows of Baozhai's past.

Personality: weird, quiet, secretly judging
Gender: Female. - Male
Age: 17 years old. - 17 years old
Species: Terran. Terran
Ethnicity: Swedish
Looks:
Tumblr media
Backstory: At birth they were conjoined twins. A sister attached to her brothers side. It was a phenomena that twins of different genders could be conjoined. Scientists wanted to test and observe the children. So, her and brother were taken away from their parents in order to be experimented on. They were one of many conjoined twins that were experimented on. Yet, the only ones that survived. After years of studying the two, the doctors were finally able to tear them apart without killing one or both. It was a major success that they were able to split. Newspapers were printed out, congratulating the doctors on the success. After they were given back to their parents at the age of eleven years old. Although the twins acted abnormally strange... For days, they wouldn't speak to anyone else. Only to themselves. The twins refused to speak to their own parents. They'd have these cold, dead expressions on their faces as they whispered to each other. Their whispers were so quiet, no matter how close you got, you still wouldn't be able to hear them. Their parents grew worried and told the doctors about their behavior. Once again, they were taken back to be watched over. The twins strange behavior were observed. For a majority of the days, the twins would sit and watch the passing stars through the window they had. Lenny would point out a star as Lilliana whispered something to him. This was on repeat for several days until the doctors had enough and separate the two for a while. Even then when they were separated, the didn't answer any of the questions the doctors would ask.
"are you hungry?"
"tired?"
"are you okay?"
Nothing came out of their dry lips. That was until the final day came when they finally saw each other and the two began to speak in rhymes. It seems that the two being kept apart made a change their behavior. Perhaps keeping the two away from each other was the best thing to do... The doctors thought so. The twins, not so much. Hearing that the were to be kept apart, this time not for a short period, the made a decision then and there. The twins ran away and hopped onto the nearest ship. The ship happened to be Bonnet's ship. When finding the two children, huddled up in the corner of their supplies. After they explained their story through rhymes, Bonnet made them his cabin boys. If they didn't want to work, he'd "unfortunately" have to return them to their home planet. The two agreed to this even if they didn't really like it. For a year, they proved themselves to be capable of being pirates. They fought off enemies, stole tons of treasure, and freaked people out just by doing nothing. The twins weren't really liked or disliked amongst the crew because they were very weird and oddly quiet. Their strategy in working together by copying the act of the other like a reflection of a mirror, made them be respected amongst the crew members. Yet, the thing they were most impressive at were being gunners. After observing other pirates use the machines, they themselves began to practice using them when everyone else was asleep. The twins impressed some of the crewmates by taking out a rival pirate ship all on their own. The twins believed they were capable of handling the gunners. Bonnet didn't think so and still kept them as cabin boys. That was until Baozhai took over the role of captain and promoted the youngesters to gunners.
- Supposedly, the two can predict the future because the night before Bonnet died, the twins told him to swear an iron plate near his chest. Bonnet was obviously confused by this and ignored them... Baozhai ended up stabbing Bonnet in the heart, killing him.
First mate
Islay Lee
Personality: Aggressive, fierce, talks her own mind, and avoidant
Gender: Female
Age: 32 years old
Species: Heloderma
Ethnicity: Australian
Looks:
Tumblr media
Backstory: Islay always lived aboard ships. From the day she was born to her very last breath. Her father was a boatswain and taught Islay all the things she'd know about the duties on a ship. Her mother was unknown and left Islay when she was a baby. Islay was very smart but never put that intelligence into school or an academy. She often got into a scuffle with other students because of her feisty behavior. Islay ended up dropping out of school at the age of ten years old. Her didn't seem to mind. As long as he had his daughter by his side, he'd be happy. When Islay turned seventeen years old, her father died from tuberculosis. She mourned his death heavily as he was her the only family. Her father's death never really left her mind. The thought of losing someone again, scared her. So, she tried to never open herself up to people. This made her very aggressive towards others, especially with those who tried flirting with her. She'd end up fighting anyone who tried to comfort her or sympathize with her. Islay didn't want to be sympathized with. She only wanted to be left alone.
Her old crew ended up kicking her out for always fighting with others. So, Islay looked around to find a new crew ship to join. This is when she came across Bonnet. He hired her on the spot for as he needed more people to join his crew. Islay never cared for Bonnet, she thought he was always too slow with his plans against merchant ships and when they were underattack, he had no idea what to do. She thought about taking over the role but never went through with it because she didn't think she was strong enough to lead. When a new member joined, Baozhai, Islay didn't like her either. Then after seeing Baozhai in action against merchant ships, Islay's dislike for her changed to tolerance. She saw the potential in her but thought she was too much of a lunatic that shouldn't even be near any in position of power...
Oh, would you look at that, Baozhai killed Bonnet and became captain. Islay continued to tolerate her but would sometimes argue with Baozhai over her decisions on planning.
- It's rumored she was in a relationship with Billy Bones and she ended the relationship after her father passed away.
Mechanic
Leonid Gorbachev
Personality: stoic, mysterious, unfriendly
Gender: Male
Age: 42
Species: Ursid
Ethnicity: Russian
Looks:
Tumblr media
Backstory: ???
- Has an unknown backstory and wants to keep it that way.
- is a skilled mechanic that previously worked for a secret organization that ended up falling apart.
- Was the first crewmate Bonnet hired.
- Never really liked Bonnet because Leonid thought he was a weak man who didn't know what he was doing most of the time. Leonid wanted to take over the ship himself but feared the captain too much to do so.
- When Baozhai joined, he grew to like her because of her hatred for the Nobility. Leonid would often encourage her to take over the role of captain because she'd make a much better one than Bonnet. Truth be told, he wanted her to become Captain so that he could then kill her and have the role himself. He didn't go through with the plan after realizing how much treasure they were getting from Baozhai's strategic plans against the nobility.
- Fluently speaks Russian.
- Has a thick accent.
Crewmate
Fleance Bal
Personality: sarcastic, witty, ambitious, clever, and weak
Gender: Male
Age: 28
Species: Robot
Ethnicity: ???
Looks:
Tumblr media
Backstory: Fleance was made for the single purpose to satisfy customers. As in satisfy, I mean sexually pleasure patrons that would come into brothels in exchange for payment. Fleance was one of many pleasure bots that would go on and be sold to the highest bidder. He was sold for about three-hundred gold coins. His purchaser owned a brothel. They wanted a new attraction to bring in more patrons to their brothel so they bought Fleance for that sole purpose. Pleasure bots were fairly new at the time. So, this would be a great way to bring in more money. Fleance never questioned it. As long as he made his owner happy, he never would. He was the main attraction at the brothel. Many patrons, woman or man wanted to go "for a test run" on Fleance. Fleance heavily enjoyed this attention. He liked being able to make others happy. Even if his sole purpose was to satisfy them. And only them. After years of working at the brothel, Fleance became very depressed. He grew tired of being used as a s*x toy. The thrills of pleasure made him bored. Alcohol and drug use only made him dependent on the substances for a very long time. Fleance was treated awfully at the brothel. It took him a while to notice when the other workers began to ridicule and mock him. Even his owner would treat him as such. Fleance only wanted to be treated like everyone else. Yet, he never got it in the end. That was until Bonnet walked into the brothel. The kind captain noticed Fleance crying in his private room. Never had Bonnet seen a man cry before. Yet, he felt incredibly touched by the robot after telling him his woes. Bonnet feeling sympathetic towards Fleance, gave him a way to leave his cruel life behind by joining his crew. Fleance eagerly agreed to the idea. There was one problem though... The owner of the brothel didn't want him to leave. They demanded a heavy payment if Fleance was to leave. Bonnet, threatened the owner of destroying his entire brothel if they didn't let Fleance go. The owner, terrified at this threat, finally let Fleance go.
Happy at his new freedom, Fleance dedicated to making Bonnet happy. Whether if that was through stealing treasure or rounding up more crewmates. Fleance went from crewmate to first mate in only a matter of months. Bonnet enjoyed the company of Fleance. As most of his crew members questioned his leadership, Fleance stood by his side. He always tried convincing the other crewmates that Bonnet was a great captain but they'd always dismiss him. When Baozhai aboarded the ship, Fleance could already tell she was going to be trouble. Yet, he never thought she'd kill Bonnet. Unfortunately, that was the case when she became captain. Fleance, extremely furious that she killed Bonnet, began to plan on killing Baozhai. He tried several methods like poisoning her or flat out killing her in her sleep. Unfortunately, his methods were often foiled by the quartermaster, Ironbeard. Ironbeard was not about to let Fleance murder the captain. Ironbeard would threaten him and beat him up if he even thought about it. Fleance huffed and said, "fine." It was amazing how he managed to stay apart of the crew despite him trying to kill Baozhai. Well, he still does on a few occasions try to kill her but they're always foiled by Ironbeard.
- Baozhai knows that Fleance tries to kill her but never threw him overboard because she thought his attempts were hilarious.
- Leonid gave him some upgrades with the addition of arm canons and being able to fly
Doctor
Octavia Oshima
Personality: regretful, intelligent, revengeful, compassionate, and hard-working
Gender: Female
Age: 35
Species: Cephalopid
Type: Archithan
Ethnicity: Japanese
Looks:
Tumblr media
Backstory: Octavia is a sophisticated young woman who entered the field of medicine. She was inspired to become a doctor after her five-year-old brother died from measles. Octavia was determined to find a cure for the disease so that others wouldn't meet the same fate. She went to one of the best academies to study about medicine. Octavia struggled though as many of her peers would put her down for wanting to become a doctor. She was one of the only women in the classroom. The teachers never gave her any respect because of her species and gender. She'd be harassed while trying to get to class. No matter how hard they put her down, she was incredibly determined to become a doctor.
After years of jumping through hoops at the academy, Octavia finally graduated amongst her fellow classmates. She felt like the hard work finally paid off. She could finally work with others like herself in order to help others. Unfortunately, that's not what happened. Octavia had a hard time finding a job in her field. She was shoved aside for other doctors who they already had some connections with or those who weren't an Archithan. Having enough with this discrimination all her life, Octavia decided to work by herself if she wasn't going to be allowed to work with others. In her own spare time, Octavia tested, observed, and published her own findings. In one case she was able to find the reason why measles was caused. She worked hard to find a cure for the disease, the very same one that took her brothers life. It involved her getting it herself in order to test various cures, to see which one would work best. After months of dealing with the painful disease, she was finally able to find the cure. Octavia had her work published to the press for her amazing discovery. After the news spread like wildfire, those who had turned her away, began to finally take notice of her work. They allowed her to work alongside them... for a while. What they wanted was her work which they successful stole when she was away from home. They later went to the public, announcing they were the ones that had actually found the cure. They presented their evidence with the research Octavia worked so hard on. Octavia was framed as a fraud and a thief in the eyes of the public. When the news finally reached her, she tried hard to clear her name but the damage was already done. Octavia's reputation was ruined....
In retaliation, Octavia wanted to destroy the lives of those who had lied about her. That's when she came across a pirate named Baozhai in a tavern. Octavia had overheard Baozhai's conversation about wanting to burn down an opera house. An opera house many nobels liked to visit. After observing her for a while, Octavia came up with a plan for her revenge. She'd join Baozhai, convince her the ones that ruined her reputation were nobels, and watch them get what they deserve. And that's exactly what she did. Yet, Octavia hadn't realized the damage she would cause. Not knowing of Baozhai's brutality, she murdered the liars in the worst ways possible. Their mangled corpses were ingrained Octavia's mind as she realized what she had done. Yet, there was no turning back now. Octavia became a wanted pirate amongst the other crewmates and Baozhai. This was her life now, a life she despised.
- Octavia would often drink to forget her mistakes. This later made her become an alcoholic.

Backstory: Cletus grew up on Terra to a loving southern family. He never cared to going to school, so he decided to work on his family's farm to make a living. In his late teens, he met Georgia Maine. A beautiful young woman who easily wooed the young lad. It didn't take long for the two to end up in a relationship. Georgia never truly loved Cletus as she was only after his family's land. She'd have a multitude of affairs behind his back for their entire relationship. In their early twenties, the two finally got married. Cletus decided to sell his family's land at the persistence of his wife. He went off to work at a factory who is something he deeply hated. Yet, did it for his wife. Cletus was unaware of her having affairs behind his back. One day when Cletus came home earlier than usual, he came into his and his wife's room only to see his wife and her affair partner in their beds. After catching them in his bed, he proceeded to murder them both with an axe nearby. He turned himself in after committing the crime. Cletus didn't feel any guilt for what he did. So, his reasoning for turning himself in is still unknown. For a short while he was put inside an asylum before he'd sentenced to execution for his misdeeds. Although a certain asylum uprising happened, causing the patients to revolt against the doctors and the nurses. All of this was led by Baozhai who started the uprising in order to escape. She wasn't the only one to escape as Cletus and a few other patients did as well. He didn't really know what to do after he escaped. Cletus knew he'd be wanted on Terra. He left the planet before the police found out that he escaped as well. Cletus was able to leave be joining up with Bonnet's crew. Bonnet needed a cook so hired Cletus after Cletus proved he was qualified for the position. He proved it by making a rather tasty soup with very few ingredients. After traveling around a bit, Cletus immediately recognized Baozhai when she first aboarded the ship as the same person who started the asylum uprising. He quickly became close to her because he liked her ambition and psychopathic personality. Cletus saw her as a natural born leader and advised her to become the new captain.
- Cletus has a southern accent.
- It's unknown whether or not he has a mental illness.
Boatswain
Noëmie Von Marietta
Personality: Timid, polite, easily scared, talented, and organized
Gender: Female
Age: 23
Species: Canid
Ethnicity: French
Looks:
Tumblr media
Backstory: Noëmie was one of thirteen children to Jean and Charlotte Von Marietta. The family lived a comfortable life with her father Jean being apart of the Senate on their home planet. Jean was a respectable and likeable man. He'd often put others before himself and would seek to improve the life of the people. At his time in the Senate, he wanted to put an end to the monarchy of the eitherium in order for an established government to be made. A majority of people agreed with him, even young Noëmie and a few of her family members. While her husband was away dealing with political matters, Charlotte ran an Inn with her children helping alongside her. Noëmie and her five older siblings would be waiters/waitresses and cooks. At the same time, Noëmie would go to a girls only private school along with her sisters. At school a passion for music grew in Noëmie. She'd often practice playing several instruments like piano, harp, and flute. Noëmie would even practice singing as well. She became a very skilled singer that she'd be apart of several theater shows just for others to hear her sing. Her siblings never had to pay to go to the shows though. Because they could just press their heads against her bedroom door to hear her sing. She became just as likeable as her father because of her musical talents and kindness. Jean tried convincing Noëmie to get a career in law because he wanted her to join him in the Senate. Noëmie decided against it. as much as she agreed with her father's views, she never actually wanted to be in the senate. Instead, she already made her choice in becoming apart of the musical arts. Her father was saddened but respected her choices. Later on, his two older sons would join him. At the age of eighteen years old, Noëmie became very beautiful. Many men would often ask for her hand in marriage. She'd always say no because she became overwhelmed at the many proposals. Her life truly changed when a young nobleman by the name of Jacque Levi, constantly persued her. No matter how many times Noëmie said no, Jacque continued to ask her. Noëmie didn't like Jacque because he'd often make fun of her father, his beliefs, and he'd never leave Noëmie alone. Jean having enough of Jacque's bullshit, wrote him a letter to knock it off or he'd challenge him to a gun duel. The two men never really liked each other as Jacque supported the continuation of the monarchy while Jean didn't. It didn't help that Jacque would make unflattering remarks of Jean whenever he was around. When Jacque received the letter, he decided he did want to duel Jean..
At the break of dawn near a channel, the two men prepared for the gun duel. Most people believed Jean would win because he was an experienced soldier. When they turned their backs and stepped ten steps forward. They turned and a shoot was fired... Shockingly, Jean was the one bleeding to death. He was quickly taken to the hospital but it had already been too late. He passed away before the doctors could help him. His family mourned his death. Yet, the one who mourned the most was Noëmie. She felt guilty because she felt as though it was her fault for his death. Noëmie would spend days locked away in her room, crying. Her two older brothers, angered that Jacque killed their father, challenged Jacque on separate occasions. Sadly, the first older brother met the same fate as his father. The second brother had to have his eye replaced with that of a cyborg one. Jacque became heavily disliked on their home planet. Yet, the people could do nothing as Jacque had connections with the royals. Seeing this as a win, Jacque tried asking Noëmie again for her hand I. Marriage. When no one was home, Noëmie let him inside in order to "discuss" the proposal. Instead of having a civil discussion, what happened was Noëmie bashing Jacque's head in with a piece of fine china. After the adrenaline of anger washed over her, Noëmie was shocked she killed someone. Her mother and her two older sisters walked into house, seeing Noëmie in a frozen state with a dead body nearby. Not wanting her daughter to go to jail or be sentenced to death, Charlotte and her other older sons threw the dead body over a cliff. They managed to hide the evidence and made it seem like an accident. It seemed like all was well but Noëmie's paranoia caused her to spill the beans. Now everyone knew what truly happened to Jacque. The royals, angered at this, wanted Noëmie to be hung. Once again, not wanting her daughter to be killed, Charlotte paid a man called Cletus Callaway to have Noëmie board the ship he was on and take her far, far away. Cletus, happily bribed, agreed and snuck Noëmie on board. It didn't take long before Baozhai found out that there was an unwanted person on her ship. Just as Baozhai was to brutally murdered Noëmie, Noëmie fell to her knees and recounted her sorrow tale to the brutal captain. Instead of feeling sympathy, Baozhai was impressed at what she had done. Baozhai decided to allow Noëmie to be on board the ship as long as she worked and participated in their pirating.
- Noëmie would write letters to her family about her well-being and the adventures she had.
- Noëmie tries to be a good pirate but would often be frightened at killing someone. Baozhai encouraged her to do so by reminding her of their deal.
Cabin boy
Archie Mulligan
Personality: cocky, mischievous, greedy, trickster, unhonest
Gender: Male
Age: 15
Species: Ailurus
Ethnicity: ???
Looks:
[POV: He sees your wallet]
Tumblr media
Backstory: Archie was put in an orphanage on Terra when his home planet was invaded and taken over by another alien race. He was only three years old when he lost his family to the invaders. Ships were able to take people off the planet while the invasion was going on. Yet, space was very limited on board. His family couldn't board because there was barely any room left. That they could only got one more person. So, his mother put him on board in order to give him a life that she never could. Archie was one of few people to have been extremely lucky to escape the planet when they could. The rest that were left behind were either slaughtered or kept as slaves. At the orphanage, Archie was adopted by Susan Mulligan, the woman who ran the orphanage. She adored his cuteness and decided to make the boy her son. Susan loved him so much that she spoiled Archie rotten.
She gave him whatever he wanted. New clothing, sweets, and toys. ANYTHING. Because of her spoiling him, Archie became a "bit" of a brat. He'd throw a tantrum if he didn't get what he wanted. Archie would steal other children's things. Especially at the orphanage. He'd often be protected by his mother by pleading innocence. His mother would often believe him and punish the other children who tattled on him. This made the orphans hate Archie and refuse to interact with him. Archie never really had any friends growing up. At the age of thirteen years old, Archie began to steal more than just toys and treats but money as well from unsuspecting adults. The lad had sneaky fingers and would steal jewelry and precious items from anyone and everyone. After becoming skilled at stealing from others, he began to do it so often, he never really had a use for any of the items he stole. He only stole just for the sake of stealing. Unfortunately karma would hit him in the face, when Susan went to clean Archie's room, she noticed all the things he had stolen. From jewelry to bags of gold coins and even her own belongings, Susan became enraged. So enraged, she kicked out the thirteen year old.
Now that he was homeless, Archie relied on his thievery. He wasn't as successful like the last times as people would chase him off for trying to steal from them. Yet, he continued to try because he didn't know how to get a job. Although when he managed to steal something, it was quickly stolen by someone bigger than him. Archie's consequences finally dawned on him when he had to sleep outside in the cold. It led to him crying because of how miserable and tired he was. Although, Archie was able to get scraps of food by people who pitied the boy. After a year of being homeless, Archie tried to steal once again from someone at a tavern. Except, he was stealing from the wrong person. That person being Baozhai. Baozhai noticed her bag of money being pulled out from her pocket by the little red panda. She immediately grabbed Archie by the back of his neck and held him up. Baozhai mocked the boy for trying to steal from her. She took out her dagger and threatened to cut off his hands for being a petty thief. Archie begged her not to do it. Begging he would do anything to stop her from hurting him. Intrigued by this offer, Baozhai agreed to this. She ended up taking aka kidnapped Archie aboard her ship. Baozhai made him a cabin boy and he wasn't allowed to leave unless her say so. Archie hated Baozhai for having him work. He never worked a day in his life! How was he supposed to figure out what he was doing? Baozhai simply told him to figure it out. It took him a while to learn what he had to do but finally got the hang of it. For a while Archie hated being on the ship but realized all the good things about being on a pirate ship. He got to witness action, he actually had a place to sleep, and got a meal once in a while. Archie began to enjoy to live on the pirate ship even if it came with lots of work. He learned to not be a spoiled brat from his experience of being homeless. At fifteen years old, Baozhai began to let him take part of the pirating. Which allowed him to get a share of the riches. Baozhai decided to use Archie for other things as well... Because he was small, fast, and sneaky, she used him to pull pranks against her enemies and steal plans. Archie, went from hating Baozhai to viewing her as a mother figure.
- Octavia would often take Archie somewhere else on the part of the ship when Baozhai was torturing someone to death. Archie knew what was happening by simply hearing the screams. He gladly never actually full on witnessed Baozhai doing these horrible acts.
(Also I would love to thank @aalbliii for letting me use her creation of the Cephalopid and ideas for Octavia!!❤️❤️❤️❤️ Thanks bud! I REALLY, REALLY appreciate it🥺🥺🥺😍😍😍 (つ ◜‿◝ )つ❤️)

Edward the Blue Engine, Keeper of Sudrian Secrets
... ft. FC2 and head canons on several other topics from the early books
Edward has always loved hearing stories. Over the years has only become more and more avid a gossip hound, and people (meaning both people and engines) seem to find him a good listener.
Put this altogether, and after over a century on Sodor he knows where alllllllll the bodies are buried, you know? 
Okay, not alllllll of them. But a lot!   
And, of course, we're talking figurative bodies ... mostly. He only knows about one clandestinely buried body. Well, maybe two. Tops.   
Now, this is true to some degree of all the Sodor engines. But there are a laundry list of reasons why Edward's a rather extreme example of this trope. Frequent idleness in his early years kind of forced him to hone a genuine interest in others. He happens to have above-average human facial recognition, too (which engines are generally not gifted with—hence frequently nicknaming their most important people based on the most obvious thing about their appearance, because for the most part All Humans Look Alike to them). 
And, of course, it helps that Edward's been on the N.W.R. for damn near the whole show. He might have only arrived seven or eight years before Henry and Gordon, but those years were huge as far as context for the sea change that the big engines represented. 
(Thomas was there even a few months earlier, of course. But I headcanon Thomas as having terrible long-term memory—in part to explain why upon meeting Trevor he's all 'wtf - a ‘traction engine’? That's some kinda alien baloney that I definitely never saw a couple hundred of while literally helping to build a railway in the 1910s!’  Besides, Thomas was a baby, and the railway's ethos was long to protect (and sometimes to overprotect) him. Whereas, this exact period of “early N.W.R.” was Edward's coming-of-age, where to his adolescent surprise he soon found himself one of the oldest engines on his new main line, and trusted accordingly with all the sensitive stuff.) 
So, altogether, if you have a question about your family history, or about some niche local happening over the past hundred years, and it went down anywhere near the N.W.R. (especially but not limited to the Brendam line), well, there's a significant chance Edward can tell you something about it that no living human remembers. Or, at least, he can point you in the direction of the coach who would have overheard the really juicy bits, because the old drama went down in her. 
Edward's long ago honed a pretty good sense of judgment in when to hold his tongue and when to dish, and he's made quite a lot of human friends this way. He's also cited in several history theses and umpteen Sudrian genealogical write-ups. 
That doesn't mean that he hasn't sometimes kicked off a huge kerfuffle. Okay, that's a lie, he has. It's almost the only sort of trouble he doesn't know how to avoid. Most memorably, there was embarrassing epic incident in 2005 when he unwittingly outed an illustrious Suddery mayor and patron from the early ‘30s and his hush-hush long-standing affair with a cross-dresser (who turned out to bear a hilarious resemblance to the mayor's aristocratic wife, actually). Said former mayor's dynasty still lives on, meaning that by the end of Edward's sneaky reporter-friend's research, at least one promising political career was besmirched (mostly by her own ridiculous behavior when she reacted to the news about her honorable ancestor, but still), and the upcoming mayoral race became an everyone's-lost-their-damn-minds-and-also-a-few-thugs-were-hired-on-both-sides circus for the ages, and there were figures (made mostly of cauliflower) burned in effigy in Lower Suddery, and the national wire decided this was all too wonderful an example of Sodor insanity to not pick up.
It also definitely meant that for a couple of years the entire North Western fleet was harassed with copycat writers hoping that lightning would strike twice.
FC3 staged an intervention where Edward could be brought up to speed on the human concepts of “the world wide web” and “homophobia” and, not least of all, “scum-sucking, bottom-feeding, curse-of-the-earth tabloid quote-unquote journalists.” 
But FC3 wasn't even the one who had the most headaches related to Edward's memory. That honor belongs to FC2 ... who, before taking on the job, thought that he was all-too-aware of what an unscrupulous, mendacious bastard his father was, but who found over the years that he didn't know the tenth of it.   
As steam began its exit on the mainland, and as enthusiasts got more and more interested in N.W.R. history, FC2 had to grapple with how much of the latter was clouded in obscurity ... or, apparently, falsified.   
One example of what we mean: When needing to send him to the Works post-‘Stationmaster’s House for Breakfast adventure,’ FC2 discovers that they don't seem to be able to produce a deed for Thomas. 
He conducts an audit of all the relevant files. A whole year later, and the files are in rather less confusion, but the only information about where the hell Thomas came from is scanty and conflicting. There is something that purports to be a deed? But it raises more questions than it answers.   
Thomas himself remembers nothing besides Sodor, and earnestly relates a story that FC2 finds most improbable, that FC1 steamed him to life on the Tidmouth construction site. 
From Thomas, Edward learns that FC2 is trying to get to the bottom of the matter, and so asks to speak to his controller privately. He confirms Thomas's story, but has far more context, about how FC1 finessed the hell out of the L.B. & S.C.R. and the Admiralty alike. He mentions at once that if FC2 finds a deed it's a forgery—they forged three different ones over the years, in fact. Edward can even distinctly remember the Inspectorate poking around looking for the “missing” engine in 1919, but Thomas was hidden away for the whole summer on the Norramby branch line, with all employees and engines instructed to lie to the inspectors and say that the L.B. & S.C. tank was transferred elsewhere years ago, or at least that, no, they don't have an engine by name of E2107 (after all, they didn’t! He was already Thomas by then!) ...   
FC2: ... 
FC2: ... 
FC2: ... Do you mean to tell me that my railway has a decades-old PR campaign featuring what is now the most famous tank engine in the world ... 
FC2: … and we stole him?!?!?! 
Edward: *cheerfully* Well, yes, sir. 
FC2: ... 
Edward: *still sunny* But I doubt at this point that anyone could prove it!
Just the tip of the iceberg. Frankly, the N.W.R. was too poor, until their post-war expansion, to have had any right to survive, and the only reason they did was because FC1 lied and cheated in this way all the time in order to keep his trains running.   
FC2 soon develops dread any time people like the Thin Clergyman or other enthusiasts bring to his attention some “interesting little mystery” they've stumbled upon concerning the early history of his railway, because every. fucking. time. he discovers that he can find out the answer from Edward, and pretty much invariably it comes down to “yet another Really Useful Deception.” And he has to be, like, well, blast it all ... don't tell this to anyone else. And every time Edward's just like, no, of course not, sir.   
That Edward is so earnest about the thing, and has apparently suffered not one whit of angst in carrying any of these secrets and is perfectly prepared to continue to speak, lie, or keep mum about them in the future—whatever FC2 wishes!—is just an extra layer of existential exhaustion for FC2 ... a truly above-board dude who wants to leave behind a legacy of integrity. 
Preferably without blackening his father's name in infamy, and incidentally probably crippling his own controllership, in the process. 
Occasionally he wants to just blow it all up, tell the world the truth about what a cold lying rat bastard his father was, and have done with it. But sometimes these old scandals show him a lovely side of his father that he himself, to be frank, seldom personally experienced. 
Like when FC2 asks why Edward was idle for the year of 1922-23, during a period of “locomotive crisis,” and for the first time Edward gets a little sad, but explains with his usual pride in FC1 that there was no locomotive crisis. Not by 1922! The board of directors, wanting to pursue a “big engine policy,” had already bought or leased quite a lot of engines—more than could be afforded, really, and putting the N.W.R. solidly in the red for ages. But FC1 lied (per usual) to the board about the difficulty in keeping up with the traffic during that period… as cover to prevent them re-selling his “green elephant,” Henry, who had proven so flawed that he would have certainly only been purchased by a scrap merchant.   
FC2 goes home and spends a lot of time that night staring into the fire with his brandy, trying to figure out how FC1 can be both the biggest bastard and the greatest man to ever set foot on Sodor. 
BONUS: 
By 1965, shortly after the “Exploit,” FC2 finds himself contacted by various preservation groups and heritage railways trying to get dibs on hosting Old Iron himself for a 70th birthday visit. 
FC2: *has records checked, sighs, goes to Edward* 
FC2: See, it's strange, how this historian has published information sourced from old Inspectorate documents about you being built in 1901 and purchased from the G.E.R., when we have a deed of sale saying that you were built in 1896 and purchased from the F.R. 
Edward: *who, incidentally, does not want any birthday celebrations and who definitely doesn't want to be sent away on any stupid tours* Mysterious. 
FC2: Don't be cheeky. Which record is correct?
Edward: Neither.  
FC2: *inaudible swear* Am I going to want a brandy for this one? 
Edward: Sir, I'm a steam engine. I really don't understand what drives humans to drink. 
Edward: But yes.

And I don’t hate you for all the questions, I answered every single one, under the read more because they got lengthy. lol 
First Question: 
I definitely don’t see Gen as perfect. I’ve kind of put a lot of myself in her, which I’ve never done with any other MC I’ve played. I kind of see Gen as as a perfectionist, to the point where she gets in her own way. She also, like Ethan, tends to put everyone’s problems on her shoulders and feels responsible for thing that are way out of her control. And though Gen is patient, sometimes too patient, she can hold a grudge. It’s unhealthy and she knows that, but she has a hard time over coming it. Like with Landry, deep down Gen wants to let it go and move on. But there’s a small part of her that will always feel angry and betrayed. Gen’s also not one to put her own needs ahead of others, it’s rare that she’ll ask for what she needs, unless she 100% trusts the person she’s confiding in. (I have a headcanon where her dad cheated on her mom when she was in high school, they didn’t get a divorce, but Gen was the one who discovered the affair and it left a sort of trust/abandonment issue.) She can be rather clingy in a relationship, at first, something Ethan was annoyed with, he’s rather independent I think, but once he understood where that was coming from it didn’t bother him as much. It was just Gen’s way of reassuring herself that Ethan was hers, that he wasn’t going anywhere. Plus her love language is physical touch/affection and spending time together. 
As for Ethan, I think he’s a very closed off person, has a hard time trusting people. He absolutely will push someone away, not because he necessarily wants to, but in order to protect himself. For me, I think one of the main reasons why he didn’t dive 100% into a relationship with MC was his fear that he’d lose them. That they would walk out the same way his mother did. I also think he’s way too stubborn and has a hard time admitting when he’s wrong. He won’t be the first to back down in a fight, even if that means it makes him unhappy. 
Second Question: 
I absolutely see Ethan and Genevieve married with kids. Gen has always wanted to get married, always wanted to be a mother. She’s had a pinterest board since high school thats dedicated to her dream wedding lol. When she found out Ethan wasn’t 100% on board with marriage, she was bummed. But at the same time, she was/is willing to let that go if it meant she could be with him. As long as she has Ethan, she doesn’t need a ring. Gen’s also always believed in soulmates and fate, she knew after their kiss in Miami that Ethan was her soulmate. 
As for Ethan, I think deep down he’s always wanted kids but never saw them as an option because he never thought he’d find the right person to settle down with. I think that also ties into his past with his mom. Same with marriage, when he wasn’t in love, it didn’t make sense to him. But once he was, realized he never wanted to lose Gen, he understood it. Once he recognized how much he loves Gen, he wanted everything with her. Marriage, kids, all of it. With MC/Gen he realized he could be the parent he wanted to be. 
I have a scene in chapter 3 or 4, I can’t remember which, in Love You Home where Ethan and Gen have the marriage/kids talk. 
Third Question:
I think Ethan has an extended family. We don’t know much about his parents, if they are only children or not, but I think either his mom or dad has a sibling or two. They’re definitely not close at all, he probably doesn’t see them. But they exist. Gen’s influence definitely persuades him to reach out, in the same way she influenced him to give his mom a second chance. 
As for a best friend? I don’t think he has one, I think Naveen is his closest friend at the moment. But I would love for him to get back in touch with maybe a childhood friend or friends from collage. Maybe even become friends with some fellow attendings at Edenbrook. Again, I think have Gen/MC around has really opened his eyes to different things and realizing how important friendships and relationships really are. 
And at some point I may write something for that. 
Fourth Question: 
I love that you see Gen as a piano person because I also see Gen as a piano person. She doesn’t play much now, lack of access to a piano and too busy with work but she does know how to play. She also speaks a baby bit of french, not enough to be fluent but enough to understand her maternal grandparents (they’re first language is french, so they speak it interchangeably with english). I also think she’s a pretty decent singer, she did choir in middle/high school.
As for hobbies, Gen is super into photography. She’s not the greatest, but she loves it. It ties into her being a super sentimental person, she likes to have tangible memories. She also loves journaling, she definitely has a bullet journal that she does herself. It’s relaxing for her, after a stressful day. And I don’t know if you’d count make up as a hobby, but Gen is super into it. On the daily, she really only wears eyeliner, mascara and a light lipstick, but on her days off she experiments and does more intricate looks. I have a headcanon where Ethan comes home and sees Gen in like a super dark lip with a kickass winged liner, very femme fatale, and he’s shookith. 
Fifth Question: 
I go back and fourth on what med school Gen went too, I googled top 100 med schools when I started open heart so I could pick a good one for her lmao Its a toss up between University of California or University of Pennsylvania. Gen is from New England, she grew up on the coast of Maine - not too far from Providence actually. So I sometimes think UPenn because Gen would want to be close to her family. But then sometimes I say Cali because she wanted the adventure of going off on her own. At some point I’m going to have to choose obviously but where not there yet lol Still a toss up. 
Sixth Question: 
Genevieve is absolutely a fresh air girl. She loves the beach and being outdoors. Boston is a bit of a change for her, being a city but it doesn’t take long to find some country air here in New England so she gets both. lol 
Seventh Question: 
LMAO I love this question. I never thought of this but you know what Gen absolutely believes in aliens. Not in a weird conspiracy kind of way, more in a scientific kind of way. There’s no way Earth is the only planet in the galaxy to have life. The galaxy is freakin huge, scientifically there is no way we’re the only planet with life. 
Eighth Question: 
Pineapple on pizza is a crime. End of story. No one should ever have pineapple on pizza. No just...no.
Ninth/ Last Question: 
I’m going to answer this for each of the things you listed in your question. 
Anxious: It’s very easy to see when Gen is feeling this way, at least to Ethan and her friends. She retreats inward and does this like twisting motion with her fingers. Like cracking your knuckles but not actually cracking your knuckles. She’ll also bite the corner of her lip. 
Scared: Gen doesn’t scare easy, but when she does she kind of hugs herself, makes herself smaller. Will hide behind things or run away. She’s a flight not a fight when scared. Especially if its like a spider, bug or snake - she’s terrified of those. That’s a freeze or run and scream situation. 
Happy: Super easy to tell when Gen is happy. She gets really smiley, a little bouncy. One of those people that does that little happy dance of swaying back and forth. 
Excited: Same as happy, big smiles. Jumps around. a little dancing. Lots of giggling. 
I’m gonna add one more here, for shipping purposes lol 
In Love: Gen is affectionate af, very touchy. She’ll show you how much she loves her way before she ever says it. Ethan realized she was in love with him months before she said it. Just by how much more open she was with physical affection. Always gently touching his arm, or kissing his cheek, always willing to hug him or snuggle in close. 
Thank you so so so much for the questions, these were so fun to answer! Feel free to drop in any time. I love Gen and Ethan so much, I will always answer any questions you want to ask me about them.
