Six men marriage favorite [anything, just go off 🧨]
Thank you for your ask 🌻 The topic of 'six men marriage' seems to be moving a lot of people on here currently , and that's the way it should be 😌 I have to say, I immediately thought of something that is a bit more abstract, maybe not really what you had in mind.... What I love and admire about this six men marriage, what sometimes moves me to tears and simply fills me with gratitude at the end of the day, is this: their unity.
Their will to work on themselves and on the band to resolve conflicts, to give everyone their right to vote, to build an unwavering democracy that may not leave much room for the individual, but makes the band all the stronger. It is certainly not always easy to keep something like this going and demands a lot from the individual (as some band members repeatedly mention in interviews), and yet they have kept it up - for 30 years. You get the impression that they really are driven by the desire to optimize this band time and again, which was founded 30 years ago in an old cellar and became an unbelievable worldwide success, and (after inner conflicts and struggles) are willing to put up with having to step back as individuals. Their cohesion is remarkable, there is so much emotionality in this band.
I'll let the band members speak for themselves to show that the subject of their relationship with each other as a unit and as a working team really does have an impact on everyone:
"I realized that I could do something with Rammstein that I wouldn't be able to do in any other world, I would never quit. It's not even important to me that I'm in the band. I could just drive around with the band, that would be enough for me. That's the best thing in the world for me, especially that gang feeling. I was lucky that it's a band and not a gangster gang. But I would have liked it just as much from the heart." Flake [source]
"We have a nice chemistry going on right now, really. We love each other more than ever and it feels really good to make music together." Paul [source]
"We didn't earn every euro for the great songs, but because we stuck together. The fears and hardships, the ups and downs, arguments, jealousies and envy. Not being able to sleep for nights on end because you wonder whether you'll get your way or give in. The conflicts of conscience, the psychodramas. I've often asked myself why I do something to myself that wears my soul out so much and don't just do something else. Rammstein is like an old marriage, you can't let go. The kids are out of the house, but the wife is still there, she's not really sexy anymore, but I love her." Till [source]
"Everyone represents the band, not just the singer. Till has never had a problem with that. We know that we are only Rammstein together. If someone steps out of line, there's a group force that pulls them back in: "Go back into your line." Of course, that restricts our individuality a little. But we love it. We feel safe and comfortable in it because we know that's where our strength lies." Schneider [source]
"We realised that in order to get the best out of our music we had to become very critical of the stuff that we were doing. Because of that, we had to overcome many difficult obstacles together and that’s what we finally did." Oliver [source]
"There were times I felt like I don’t want to do it anymore, but there was always something, a bigger picture I’ve seen that made it worth while. I always figured we can over-step our egos. There’s something more beautiful than fighting for your egos." Richard [source]
It really seems to be like one big marriage... 'For better, for worse, for richer, for poorer, in sickness and in health, to love and to cherish...' 🤍

Tumblr media
video: 
Guy in the photo talking to his friend
Guy in photo: “Ey, ey, ella que no es la novia de jude?” (Hey, hey, isn’t that jude’s girlfriend?) He points out starstruck, pointing at Y/N who was nearby. 
Friend: “¿Parece que sí es?”  (It seems like she is?) His friend replied recognizing her. 
Guy in photo: “Oye le pediré foto?” (Hey, should I ask her for a photo?) He nervously asks. “¡Tal vez me menciona a Jude!” (Maybe she’ll mention me to Jude!)
Friend: “¿estás bien hermano? ¡Tú crees que van a platicar de ti! Ay wey en realidad estas mal” (Are you good bro? You think they’re going to talk about you? Oh dude, you’re so wrong!) 
Guy: “callate! ¡No me arruines mis esperanzas! si hay hasta una pequeña posibilidad de que Jude simplemente escuche de mí por parte de t/n, ¡moriré feliz!” (Shut up! Don’t ruin my hopes! If there’s even a slight chance of Jude hearing of me from Y/N, I’ll die happy!) The boy smiled, determined to go up to Y/N. 
Friend: está bien, vamos (fine, let’s go)
The two boys appeared to walk, on video, towards Y/N. 
They tapped her on her shoulder once they had reached her. She turns around, appearing on camera. 
Y/N smiles kindly at them. 
Guy: Hola perdón por molestarte. Es que soy un gran fan de Jude. ¿Está bien si nos tomemos una foto? (Hey, sorry to bother you. It’s just that I’m a huge fan of Jude. Is it okay if we take a photo?)
Y/N smiled widely at the question. 
Y/N: “¡Claro!” (Of course!)
They both pose for the infamous photo and the friend retrieves it from the video. 
Guy: “Gracias t/n!” Te lo agradezco.” (Thank you Y/N! I appreciate it) The boy expresses. Y/N smiles and nods at the fan. 
Y/N: “¡Por nada! Tengan una bonita noche, que la disfruten!” (You’re welcome! Have a great night guys, enjoy it!) Y/N wishes, ready to part ways. 
Guy: “¡Me saludas a Jude, porfa!” (Say hello to Jude for me, please!) The guy pleads, causing Y/N to giggle at the interaction. 
Y/N: “Cuéntalo hecho!” (Count it as done!) Y/N smiles before walking away. Keeping her promise, later that night mentioning the encounter to Jude. 
Y/N leaves and the friend starts to scold his friend. 
Friend: “No manches! Salistes bien amargado en la foto wey!” (Seriously? You came out so bitter in the photo, dumbass!)
Guy: Es que estaba bien nervioso hermano. O sea es la novia de Jude Bellingham!” (It’s because I was so nervous, bro! I mean it’s Jude Bellingham’s girlfriend!) The boy exclaims to his friend. “¡Cómo crees que me sentia! Estoy por las nubes!”  (How do you think I felt? I’m over the moon!)

com7 her outfit and boots are so cute 🤩
Y/N’s POV: 
I spread my limbs throughout the comfy bed but not as comfortable as the one awaiting me back home. My eyes flutter open, as I bask in my last morning in Mexico. 
The morning sun shining through the window, brightening up the room. I take one last look through the window, the tree tall and green, dogs laying out on the ground, the pretty plants and the great range of mountains surrounding the rancho. 
I let out a deep sigh as I sat up in bed, a mixed emotion about leaving this place. Leaving the peaceful and warm lifestyle that is Mexico was always heart wrenching but my skin tingles at the thought of going back home. Not a home, like a house or a place but Jude. Jude is my home. 
I smiled at the thought of him and a warmth at my core enlights. 
A home cooked meal was already awaiting me in the kitchen and family slowly started filling my grandparents' home to say their goodbyes. 
I frown at the thought of leaving them but I know life would never be the same if I stayed. 
The time is approaching to my last minutes with everyone. An emotional goodbye to the animals, the beautiful home that holds many wonderful memories, and of course to all of my family especially my grandparents. 
“Te amamos mija. Ya sabes que aqui siempre esta tu casa, (we love you darling. You know that you’ll always have your home here” My grandma tells and we pull each other into a tight hug. 
I wipe the tears that we are threatening to spill. 
“Hasta luego muñeca que dios la bendiga! (Until next time doll god bless you!)” My grandpa expressed as he kissed my cheek, pulling me into his arms. 
After all the goodbyes, my uncle started the truck and loaded my luggages. 
On our way to the airport I watched the landscapes contentedly and whispered my goodbyes to the familiar roads.

''There's nothing wrong with her stutter!''
Tumblr media
PAIRING | SEBASTIAN STAN x FEMALE!READER
WORD COUNT | 2.4K
SUMMARY | You get a job offering as a make-up artist for Marvel Studios, and quickly become great friends with Sebastian. He never cared about your stutter, and was always patient when you were talking to him. You grow really close, but when the paparazzi tries to hurt you, he is quick to shut them down in your defense.
WARNING(S) | Light swearing, a little angst in some spots.
A/N | Hi all! I decided to write this one-shot to show everyone who has a stutter and is struggling with it that it is completely normal, and you're absolutely perfect! A really good friend of mine struggles with it everyday, so I decided to share what it is like to live with someone who has it with their permission. I hope you will enjoy it!
Likes and reblogs will be very much appreciated 💜
Main Masterlist | Sebastian Stan Masterlist
Tumblr media
Y/N still remembers the day she got the job offering to be a make-up artist with Marvel, it was such a big career move she even moved to New York City to be able to take it. Once she arrived on the set, she found out she would be the main make-up artist for both Chris Evans and Sebastian Stan, who she had both seen in a few movies before. The only thing that did really worry her, was the fact that she had a stutter, usually people didn't react to that all too well. Despite this, she decided to give this a chance because this could be the change she needed so bad in her life.
The first time you met both Sebastian and Chris was an absolute delight, they were incredibly nice. ''Hi g-g-guys, my n-name is Y/N, and I w-w-will be your makeup a-artist for now.'' you said, and your cheeks immediately turned a deep crimson color, and you really wished you could just run out of the make-up trailer and hide forever. ''Hey, I'm Sebastian!'' he said, and he decided not to comment on your stutter, he actually found it pretty cute. ''Hi, I'm Chris, it's really nice to meet you. I'm sorry and I don't mean to overstep, but do you have a stutter? It's completely fine if you do ofcourse!'' he asked, and you nodded, not wanting to embarrass yourself even more.
You did the boys' makeup and they were incredibly grateful, they asked all kinds of questions like where you are from, if you have siblings, stuff like that. ''W-w-well, I'm from a small t-t-town in Florida, w-where I lived with my ex b-b-boyfriend for a few years, and now I l-live here in New Y-York City, by myself. I s-s-sadly don't have siblings, but I h-h-have a three year old son n-named J-J-James.'' you said with a big smile on your face, thinking about your little boy. You don't see his dad anymore because he left after he found out you're pregnant, and he didn't want any of the responsibility.
''Want to know a little secret?'' Sebastian asked you, and you nodded. ''My character in these movies is also called James. I have a feeling this is completely meant to be!'' he said with a smirk and he let out a chuckle, you laughed as well. You have a feeling you would get really get along well with Sebastian, as well as Chris, because they both make you laugh and feel good, so you don't have to worry about your stutter. ''A-A-Allright guys, you're both ready. Have a good d-d-day on set today!'' you said and you started cleaning up your makeup kit for now, so you would have a clean space to work off of if they needed to be touched up.
The next few weeks were great, and you got to know both Chris and Sebastian pretty well, but there was this undeniable friendship between you and Sebastian. He never said anything about your stutter, but always carefully listened to what you had to say. He never interrupted or finished your sentences, which is something you absolutely hated, and it felt like a relief that he didn't do it. ''S-Seb? I want to say thank y-y-you for being so patient w-with me and my s-s-stutter. It is a r-r-relief that you don't interrupt me or fill in w-what I want to s-say.'' you say with a little flush on your cheeks. ''Ofcourse doll, I know how much it bothers you that people do that, but it doesn't take much effort to just be patient. Besides, I love hearing what you have to say!''
You were so grateful to hear him say that, it felt great to have someone in your life who didn't fill everything in for you, you can think and talk for yourself thank you very much. By the time the end of filming rolled around, you really got close with Sebastian, and you often ended up talking in his trailer for a little while before going home, where you talked about everything and nothing, the good and the bad. James was usually at daycare, but when he got very sick during the day, you had to go there in a hurry. By the time you got to your car you found it had a flat tire, and you didn't know what to do. ''Want me to drive you? I'm done shooting for today anyway!'' Sebastian offered and you happily agreed.
''Oh b-b-baby, what's going on? Are y-you okay?'' you asked James when you saw him. He was very pale and warm, definitely spiking a fever. ''He ate his lunch, but sadly he didn't keep it down and he got sick. He has been spiking a fever for a little bit, but it doesn't seem to go down. We're so sorry we had to call you out of your work!'' the lady at the daycare said, but you said it's fine. ''Hey buddy, are you feeling sick?'' Sebastian asked, looking worried at your son. He nodded slightly and he started crying, so you really had to go to the pharmacy and pick something up in order to bring down his fever. ''I'm s-s-sorry, but we really need t-t-to go now. H-Have a good day!'' you said. ''Yeah, you too and again, I'm so sorry!'' the lady said.
Both you and Sebastian hurried back to his car, you sat in the backseat this time, with James on your lap trying to comfort him a little bit. ''It's o-okay buddy, we'll get you s-something for your fever, and you'll f-f-feel better in no time!'' you said to him, softly stroking his cheek while giving soft kisses on his head. ''Sebastian w-w-will drive to the pharmacy and get you s-something to feel better, okay?'' you said, with tears welling up in your own eyes, because you hated to see him in this much distress, you absolutely despised seeing how bad he was feeling. Most of all, you hated the fact that you had to go through this alone, since your ex left you during the pregnancy.
Sebastian arrived at the pharmacy and went in after you told him what to get for James, so you could stay with him in the car. ''Here you go, James!'' he said when he came back, and he brought some of your favorite snacks as well, to make you feel a little better. He drove all three of you to your apartment, and you invited Sebastian in. ''Oh no, it's okay, really! I should really go, if I come with you I'll only be in the way of you taking care of this little guy.'' he said when he softly stroked James on his back with his big hand. ''It's okay S-Seb, really. I could use t-t-the company!'' and he agreed.
After a few hours you finally managed to get his fever down, and Sebastian was making dinner for the both of you so he was able to help. James didn't feel like eating yet, so you could always make him something simple later. ''Allright doll, dinners ready.'' he said, and he put down a delicious looking pasta salad, and your mouth started watering at the sight of it. ''Wow, i-it looks delicious!'' you say and you immediately put some on your plate. You realized you hadn't ate anything since breakfast, because it was hectic at work and when you got the call from the daycare, you completely forgot about lunch.
A few days later, you suddenly notice a lot of notifications on Twitter and Instagram, but you don't understand what it is all about. When you open Twitter, the first thing you see is '' Does Sebastian Stan have a new girlfriend? '' and you click on it. There are a couple of paparazzi photos of you, Sebastian and James from when he was sick, and Sebastian was there to help you both out. You get really nervous because of this, and decide to call Sebastian. ''Y/N? Is everything okay doll?'' he asked when he picked up after the second ring. ''S-S-Seb, have you seen the p-p-photos yet?'' you say and tears start to prick in your eyes. You were afraid that if he saw all the things they said, he didn't want to be friends anymore, you knew he didn't want a relationship for a while. Even though you were definitely not together, those thoughts still crossed your mind.
''Ah, you mean the ones where they say you're my girlfriend?'' he says with a sigh, he was hoping you wouldn't find out what the paparazzi said, since he knew how you felt about those people. ''It's okay doll, I have already put out a statement that I'm not in a relationship, but that we're just really great friends, that's all.'' he said, and you felt a bit relieved when he said that. You thank him and he asks how James is doing, since you had a few days off to take care of him. ''He's really d-d-doing great, and he has b-been asking about you! H-H-He wants to know where m-mommy's friend is, and asked i-i-if you wanted to come and p-play with him.'' you said with a smile, thinking about when James asked for Sebastian. ''Oh, I would absolutely love to come by later today. Is that okay? Maybe we can all go out to dinner together if he's feeling better!'' Sebastian suggested and you accepted his offer.
The three of you were on your way to dinner, and Sebastian got recognized by some fans who wanted to take a photo with him. He looked at you apologetically and asked if it was okay with you. ''Yeah, o-o-ofcourse!'' you said to him and stepped to the side with James, so you could give them space for a few photos. When the fans walked away you could hear them saying something about you stuttering, and you started to feel very self conscious again. ''Seb, m-m-maybe we should just reschedule. I'm s-sorry.'' you said, and James noticed the tears falling down your face. ''No mommy, no cyring! Mommy can't be sad!'' he said while wiping the tears away, which made you smile through the tears. ''Doll, it's okay. There's nothing to worry about, they don't know anything about you. If you want to go home that is okay and I will come with you, but if you still want to go to dinner I would love to go with the both of you.'' he said, holding your face in his hands. He gave you a kiss on the cheek to make you feel better, and you decided to go to dinner.
When it was time for the premier for Captain America: The First Avenger, Sebastian invited you to come along as his plus one. You gladly accepted, you could really use a night out for a change. The babysitter was more than happy to take care of your little bundle of joy, and you got to spend some quality time with Sebastian and the rest of the cast, who you've grown to love during the shooting of the movie. ''Hey Chris! H-how are you?'' you ask when you see Chris, you haven't seen him since the last day of shooting. ''I'm doing really great. I'm kind of nervous ofcourse, but I'll be fine! How are you and James doing?'' and you tell them about how we was sick a little while ago, but he is back to his old happy self now, and really growing up way too fast.
When it was time for the red carpet, Sebastian gently guided you there, and you both posed for some photos. ''Sebastian, how does it feel to have a girlfriend now?'' some people ask, and you are finally done with it. ''He's n-n-not my boyfriend! We're j-j-just really good friends!'' you say and you get angry, but instead of them stopping, they just started laughing and making fun of your stutter. ''Oh please, why would anyone listen to you? You can't even talk like a normal person!'' someone said, and this is what drove Sebastian over the edge this time. ''Dude, what the fuck is wrong with you? There's nothing wrong with her stutter! She can't do anything about it, and it makes her special! It's too bad assholes like you can't seem to get that into that small brain of yours!'' he yells at the guy, and he storms off the red carpet with you closely behind.
''S-S-SEB, WAIT!'' you say, only earning more laughs behind you. You start walking slower and tears are streaming down your face, Sebastian then stops when he hears you sobbing. ''Oh god doll, I'm so sorry for what just happened. I know how you feel right now, and I am so sorry that happened to you.'' he said, and he wrapped his big arms around you to comfort you. ''I-I-It's okay, I'm used to it.'' you say in between your sobs, but it still hurts that they make fun of your stutter. ''No doll, it's not okay, and someone had to set the record straight. I think you're absolutely perfect, and you didn't deserve that. No one deserves to be treated like that.'' he said in your hair whilst he kept holding and soothing you.
''I-I-I'm sorry. I should just go h-home...'' you say and you let go of Sebastian, but he doesn't want to hear any of it. ''Doll, how about we get you cleaned up in the bathroom real quick, and we will just enjoy the rest of the evening with our friends? You really deserve a night out, and those assholes can just fuck right off to where they came from!'' he said, earning a light chuckle from you. ''Okay, b-b-but you can't c-come into the bathroom w-with me!'' you say and the two of you make your way over there. Whilst you walk into the bathroom Sebastian goes to get you a glass of champagne and hands it to you when you walk out of the bathroom. ''T-t-thank you again, Seb. This m-means the world to m-m-me.'' you say and you give him another hug, and this time you give him a light kiss on his cheek, making him blush a little where your kiss just touched him. ''I love you, doll.'' he said. ''I l-l-love you too, S-Seb.''

note:this is a massive story im so sorry
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
the day started like any other...at least at first, wally does his daily painting routine at his favorite painting spot, underneath a tree with a easel in front of him. the painting he was making resembled a apple cut open with many colors inside in a lemony yellow backgound. he figured his beloved would enjoy it. no matter what personality, they always loved his work and almost immediately hangs it on their wall.
he then paused, mid motion of dipping his paint brush into red paint...now thinking about it, he hasnt seen you all day or hardly anyone for that matter. normally you would show up to say hello or he finds you during his journey to his painting spots, but he was so caught up in his own little world to notice that...time passed and you still haven`t shown up.
a chill goes up his spine at the thought of something wrong might`ve happened, getting a breif flashback of the time his beloved developed a daredevil like personality and they almost got themselves killed.
he looks at his painting as he set the tools down, "it can wait" he thought, as he ventures off to find you.
walking to your home he noticed the design has changed again, it was covered in colorful music notes and fake plastic vinyl records here and there and music is playing from inside. a pleasant musical theme. however over the music thats playing inside was the sounds of construction behind the house and friends talking. wally thought you where back there building something. so he walked behind the house to not see you, but sally, julie, and howdy. the three are apparently working on building a stage, it looked to be almost done as its firmly standing tall and decorated with star covered curtains and fairy lights.
the neighbors have been busy most of the day making a mini concert for you, a treat you 'the famous pop star' wanted to give to the community as a thank you for being great friends. of course you didnt ask them to make the stage, they offered to make it for you. the three of them was having fun putting the last finishing touches on the setup while frank gets chairs, barnaby gets snacks, and eddie finishing his final mail run for the day, poppy was nowhere to be found. wally wonders where both you and poppy could be...but he figures the both of you are busy with something else important for this setup. so instead he went to say hello to sally,julie, and howdy.
"hello friends!" wally greets the trio while he waves "wally! where have you been? you was about to miss the show" sally asks with a smile, a bottle of glue and a jar of glitter in her hands, she was making glitter covered shapes on the stages platform to give it extra flare "im sorry, i was caught up with my painting and did not notice the time" wally sighs as he confessed where he has been most of the day, embarrassment and a hint of remorse in his tone "thats ok silly! you`re here now!" julie speaks up, understanding that anyone can lose track of time when they are doing something they enjoy, "am i still able to help?" wally offers, even if its kind to late, howdy holds out a paintbrush to him thats coated with green paint "can you help me paint the rest of the stage?" howdy smiles, even if he had it covered already with his four arms, he would love to have some help.
with a grin wally accepts the brush and helps howdy paint the wooden stage. everyone else returned from their tasks and soon the set up was finished, poppy showed up after a while to sneak someone behind the curtains of the stage and took a seat with everyone else in the small crowd.
and then the show begins.
the curtains open to reveal you on the center of the stage, the fairy lights illuminating the stage and makes you shine brighter then anything in the world in wallys eyes. you was smiling, dressed in pop star getup, and face framed perfectly with the new hairstyle you have for the day. you looked like a angel standing on that stage.
"hello neighbors!" you said cheerfully into the mic thats on a stand in front of you "i wanted to give you something in return for the never ending kindness you've always given me since ive moved here" you continued, a spark of confidence in your voice "i`ve written this one for someone special, i hope you all enjoy it" you say as a song starts to play from the speakers.
as you began to sing the world practically stood still, your voice was so beautiful it practically made wally swoon. his heart sped up and his face grew warm as he rests his head on the palm of his hand, never taking his lovestruck gaze off of you. a song you have made for him you`ve sang with all the confidence in your very soul, each lyric and note he will forever know by heart. he has never fallen as hard as he did at this moment...
and even when the song finished he never took his eyes off of you or even stopped listening when you started the next song, he hung on to every word. just enjoying every second of your beautiful performance...

Then, Winter Break, Christmas Eve, IND ➡️ SFO ➡️ MRY ➡️ Carmel-by-the-Sea, CA
You were going to kill Steve.
You’d arrived to the airport with absolutely no time to spare and had to book it through security (thank you, TSA Pre-Check) and then sprint to your gate. A special shout-out to your TSA agent who barked out a laugh after reading your ‘Dead Inside But Still Horny’ t-shirt when they made you take off your hoodie and place it in a bin to be screened. Never in your life had you related more to Eminem’s description of “palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy” than you did right now.
If you didn’t have some water soon, you’d be joining him in the vomit on the sweater portion of the song. Luckily, Steve threw you a water bottle before the mouth sweats could really set in. You gulped it down heartily and then chucked the plastic bottle at his head.
“Uncalled for,” he accused indignantly, ignoring your scowl and narrowed eyes. “We made it, didn’t we?”
“You had to carry me on the plane,” you point out, knowing it’s not one of your finer moments. 
He had to shift his backpack around to carry it on his chest and gave you a piggyback ride to your seats, much to your embarrassment. But in your defense, your legs were about to give out and it seemed to cheer up the holiday travelers on the plane as Steve apologized with nods and shrugs, as if to say ‘what can you do?’ accompanied by a charming smile.
As he slipped you into your row, you heard a woman in front of you say, “Well, if that isn’t the sweetest thing.” A nudge to her husband seated next to her to ask, “Richard, why didn’t you do that for me?” His responding chuckle was warm and bright.
You ducked down to situate yourself in the seat, buckling the seatbelt and settling in. Steve slid in next to you, taking the middle seat because he’s a heathen with no concept of personal space, and opened his backpack. You wondered what you’d do to pass the time for the nearly five-hour flight and were interrupted by Steve when he handed you a pair of Sony headphones.
“If this is part of your Christmas escapades, I will be terribly upset.”
He shrugged, nonchalant, “Santa said to give ‘em to you now, I’m just following orders here.”
You mumbled obscenities to yourself, mindful of the tiny ears on the plane while Steve laughed at you. After a few futile minutes attempting to pair your phone to the headphones, he took over. You glanced out of the window, watching as the ground crew loaded the cargo hold before take-off.
Steve, damn him, could never really warrant your prolonged anger– this trip was, by far, the nicest thing anyone had ever done for you. And you found it difficult to be mad at him for breaking the gift-giving rules, but, rest assured, he’d be getting a talking to later.
He passed your phone back to you and opted to test your headphones for you. Opening Spotify, you tapped on your Liked Songs playlist and scrolled until finding something acceptable. Steve’s bright smile at the opening notes of “Last Christmas” was worth it.
“Think that’ll do it,” he says with a wink, placing the headphones securely around your ears. 
You pause the song and reveal an ear, “What’ll you do?”
He digs through his bag again and pulls out his copy of Midnight in Chernobyl. You shudder at the thought of reading about such gruesome things as he opens the cover and thumbs at the pages. 
“Okay, enjoy that, comrade,” you joke, pulling the headphones to rest against your neck as you prepare to watch and listen to the flight attendant’s safety presentation. “What,” you ask to his raised brow and smirk, “One of us should be prepared.”
He huffs a laugh and winds his fingers between yours on the armrest, giving you a reassuring squeeze. Setting the book down to mark his page, open against his thigh, he scrolls through his phone, tapping out a missive or two.
“Oh shit,” you said, remembering the holiday plans with the group, “Shouldn’t we let Nance and them know we’re bailing?”
Steve smiles and hands you his phone. You quickly read through the loft groupchat.

As it so happened, your trip was about seven hours, all told. After landing in San Francisco, you had to make a connecting flight and had a brief layover. Just long enough for Steve to run to a Peet’s Coffee and grab something for a snack before you boarded the next flight.
He returned with a cappuccino for you and some snacks from a news vendor. You took the cup gratefully and warmed your hands against the cardboard cup. Steve sipped from his own cup, taking the seat next to you in the terminal. 
“What’d you get?”
He shrugs, swallowing the coffee down, “The usual, an americano.”
“Ugh,” you scoff, “Boring.”
“Well, one of us needs to be awake.” 
You eye him suspiciously.
“This flight is about an hour and then we have to drive.” He rolls his neck, with a sigh, “Only like, twenty minutes, give or take with traffic.”
“Are you planning to murder me and dump my body into the Pacific?”
“What!?” he squawks, turning a few heads your way. “No, never. When did you get so paranoid?”
You sip daintily from the cup once more, “Born this way, take it up with my mother.”
He rolls his eyes and gets up to toss his empty cup into the recycling bin. “I will do no such thing, your mother is a gem.”
You elbow him in the side as he sits back down. “Whatever you say, big guy.”
They call for boarding not long after and you shuffle back onto another plane. The flight to Monterey is under an hour, not enough time to do much of anything but nap, really. Upon landing, Steve shoulders his backpack once more, hand extended behind him for you to hold as you disembark onto the tarmac and walk inside to collect your bags. 
You assure him that you know which bags to grab from the carousel before he leaves you to pickup the rental car. Grabbing your phone you let Nance know you’ve landed but still have no idea what Steve’s planning; she’s less than helpful in her response.
natty light 💯: nope, i’m not enabling you’re snooping
trouble 👁️👄👁️: whatever could you possibly mean? me, a snoop?
natty light 💯: yes, and the worst of them too.
trouble 👁️👄👁️: you’re no fun.
natty light 💯: babe, i love you. but for once in your life, could you let someone do something nice for you and just enjoy it?
Well, that wasn’t what you were expecting.
Steve returns to your side as you spot the first of your luggage and then goes to get it himself. Less work for you, you suppose. 
The sun makes its final descent beneath the horizon as you walk to the parking lot. Steve’s looking for the numbered parking spot the concierge gave him, mumbling to himself.
“Oh, there it is!”
He jogs toward a white two-seater convertible, a Mazda MX-5, whatever the fuck that is, and seems pleased with himself. He loads your bags into the trunk and walks you over to the passenger side door, opening it for you. 
“Very gentlemanly of you,” you tease, sliding into the leather seat.
“Oh, be sure to tell my mom,” he smiles back at you, “She’ll be thrilled those etiquette classes were good for something.”
He shuts the door and crosses in front of the car before settling into the driver’s seat. Steve adjusts the rearview mirror and seat before pairing with the bluetooth and passing his phone off to you. 
“Did you already type in the directions?”
“Yeah, just pick something for the drive.”
You nod and settle on something from one of his numerous playlists. Preoccupied with the music selection, you don’t notice you’ve pulled out of the airport parking lot until Steve merges onto CA-1. Your attention drifts to the center console and gear shift, Steve’s hand resting there and shifting occasionally while his feet work the pedals.
“Throw back, huh? Feeling nostalgic?” he asks, changing lanes, commenting on the song rattling through the speakers. 
“I guess,” you say, distracted by his hand on the gearshift and concentration on the road. “Is this a manual?”
His brow raises in surprise, “Yeah, stick shift. Cars like this usually are.”
“Oh,” you lean back into the seat, turning to catch some scenery. “I didn’t know you could drive stick.”
He sighs, “Yeah, my dad insisted I learn how. But Hopper’s the one that taught me.”
“Really?”
His eyes flit to you briefly, before looking to the road again. “Yep,” he pops the percussive ‘p’ and smiles. “He was overseeing the driving program at the time, some zero hour bullshit that I hated since I had to get up at ass o’clock.”
“Huh,” you reply, lost in thought. “I guess that’s when Eddie started picking me up for school.” 
The song changes over to another old favorite, “Two Weeks” by Grizzly Bear as you take in the scenery. To your right, the Pacific Ocean laps against the California shoreline. It’s growing dark, but enough light remains for you to spy the crests of white foam as the waves crash against the shore. 
Steve handles the curves of the of PCH adeptly, and you’re only momentarily distracted by his hands moving over the wheel and gearshift. It stirs something uncomfortable in your abdomen, as if your stomach flipped or something. If you could cross your legs more, you would, you’re all too aware of the tightening in your thighs— thank god for opaque Lululemon leggings.
The rest of the drive passes, gorgeous scenery giving way to the parks and downtown of Carmel-by-the-Sea. Tiredness settles over you like a warm blanket, the exhaustion from the previous night’s insomnia on top of a travel day. You hope to sleep well tonight.
He turns onto a residential road and drives up hill, passing beautiful homes and gardens along the way. Must be making your way to the AirBnB. 
“Pretty sure my aunt and uncle have a place here,” you muse, “It’s a rental property of theirs, I think.”
Steve hums in agreement, so it must be something you mentioned before. He pulls into a driveway with a black S.U.V. and parks the car. 
“This is us,” he says turning toward you, fingers drumming anxiously against the steering wheel.
It’s a big house, too big for just the two of you, surely. Something from a storybook with a gate to the front garden and a Juliet balcony above the French doors at the entrance. You’re about to say how it’s too much, that there’s no reason the two of you need an entire house to yourselves when the one of the front doors opens and a head peeks out
“Merry Christmas you two!”
A gasp escapes the cavern of your chest, because that’s a voice you’d know anywhere. You barely make it out of the car to careen into your mother’s warm embrace, stifling tears as you go. She squeezes you tight, one arm wrapped around your back while the other cradles your head to her chest.
“Hi sweetie,” she sniffles, fingers tangling in your hair and bringing your forehead to rest against her own, “How’s my favorite daughter?”
You manage a laugh, pulling away to wipe the tears from your cheeks. At a loss for words, all you can get out is, “How?”
She responds with a slow smile, eyes landing on Steve with a subtle nod. “He planned the whole thing, swore us all to secrecy.”
And Steve, for his part, dutifully unloads the trunk like it’s just another day. Like he hasn’t planned the world’s greatest Christmas present for you. You listen as your mother chats about colluding with your best friend for the better part of a month as the two of them worked out dates and bookings.
He waves at the pair of you and lugs the bags up the cobblestone drive to the door.
Your mother tuts and tucks wayward strands of hair behind your ears. “Now honey,” she says, “You know we adore Steve…”
Blinking, you face her once more, knowing all too well what she’s getting at, “Yes, you’ve made that very clear mom.”
She smirks, “And you’re sure there’s nothing you’d like to share, just between us girls?”
Her laugh is infectious and drowns out your scoff as Steve stops at the entryway. “Already up to no good, I can tell.” He readjusts the strap of his backpack and gives your mom a hug with his free arm, “Hey mom, long time no see.”
She playfully smacks his chest, “You troublemaker, I saw you just last week.” She pulls him in for a hug and lays a kiss on his temple, “So, how did the surprise go?”
Steve looks to you with a raised brow, biting his bottom lip. “Uh, looks like she’s still in shock,” he says, “We should probably get her inside.”
Allowing yourself to be led inside, you walk in a daze behind your mother, Steve just a step behind you with the luggage. 
Your mother shouts that you’ve arrived, alerting your father and brother in the kitchen as they work on dinner. Your dad responds with his exuberant, “All right!” while your brother takes the steps down from the kitchen to give you a hug.
“Hey sis,” he says releasing you, “Pretty wild that Steve-o was able to pull this off, huh?”
“Oh yeah,” you parrot back, “Pretty wild.”
Your mother looks on in interest, curious eyes and pursed lips. Steve greets your brother with a handshake, turns to you with a mock-salute, and seemingly abandons you to your family.
Rude.
Tumblr media
Steve takes your mom’s directions to locate the remaining bedroom for the pair of you. There’s only one bed, which seems to be par for the course at this point. He tosses the backpack on a nearby chair and leaves the luggage by the closet. 
Falling against the bed, he checks his phone for any missed messages. There’s the usual bullshit in the groupchat, Eddie rightfully fearing for his life after your threat. Followed by a text from Robin asking how he’s doing and a missed Facetime call from his mother.
With a sigh, he sits back up and calls her back. She picks up on the second ring, camera decidedly not on her face. “Ma,” he says, “You gotta hold the phone in front of your face, it’s not a phone call.”
“Oh.”
She maneuvers the camera to show her face, impeccably made up (as usual), as she sits in the hotel room waiting on his father for some event or another.
“So you made it to California?”
“Yeah, we just got to the house.” He scrubs a hand down his face, feeling more tired than he lets on. “I think she likes it?”
“Well, I would hope so,” she tuts, “You put an awful lot of work and money into this.”
“Ma–”
“No, no,” she sighs, “I know it’s yours to do with as you want, I’m just saying.”
“Well, don’t,” he glowers.
“Now Steven,” she admonishes, “We like her, she’s a lovely girl and you both had a similar upbringing…”
He rolls his eyes as she begins the litany of why-aren’t-you-together-yet and cards a hand through his hair. 
It’s really none of her business, either way. And it’s pretty obvious that if Steve had his way, you’d have already been an item. But no, some asshole had to propose and then break your heart. He flexes his hand, mindful of his sore joints from the punch.
“And I know her mother has shown you the heirloom jewelry already and we have some exquisite pieces from your grandmothers as well—”
“Wait, what?”
His mother stops her prattling, brows raised. “Is this not a proposal trip?”
His eyes nearly pop out of his skull, “Fu–,” he clears his throat, “No, absolutely not. Mom, where did you even get that idea?”
She has enough sense to seem chastened, “Well, you were working on that ring for her, weren’t you?”
He swallows audibly. “Yes, that’s technically true…”
“And it’s not an engagement ring?”
“Uh, no.”
She scoffs and balks, “Well whatever could it be for if you’re not proposing?”
At this point, Steve’s father overhears and comes into frame. “Steven’s proposing?”
His mother turns to her husband, ignoring Steve, “To the neighbor girl, you remember her.”
“Oh, right,” his father adjusts his tie. “Are you sure about this, son?”
“I’m not–” Steve pinches the bridge of his nose, “That’s not happening you guys.”
“Apologies,” his mother says, “Apparently he’s not proposing but has some ring for a Christmas present.”
“Could be mistaken for an engagement,” his father replies, “You’re giving her ring on Christmas, nearly twenty percent of engagements happen between Christmas and New Year’s.”
How the fuck would he even know that?
“Your father and I were engaged on New Year’s.”
“That’s right, dear, and it worked out perfectly fine for us.”
Steve sighs in frustration, falling back against the pillows, “D’you two want to continue this conversation by yourselves or…?”
“There’s no need to be touchy Steven,” his mother cautions, “We just wonder if this is the best time to gift her a ring if you’re not to be engaged.”
“If you’d let me explain,” he says in a measured tone, “I could clear up your misconceptions.”
“Fine, go on then.”
He takes a breath in and explains how the ring isn’t an engagement ring but a replica of your grandmother’s ring that you’d lost at sleep-away camp when you were thirteen. Apparently, your grandmother in her infinite wisdom had deemed thirteen a mature enough age to keep and wear fine jewelry. Despite keeping it in your duffle bag and not wearing it all during camp, it had been lost, and you were utterly devastated.
“Her grandmother passed late that summer,” Steve reminds his parents, “We went to the funeral that September.”
“Oh,” his mother breathes out, hand to her heart, “I had no idea…” she trails off, looking to Steve’s father to carry the conversation.
He clears his throat, “That’s a thoughtful gift, son. Just make sure she takes your meaning when opening it.”
Steve allows him a brief smile, “I don’t think that will be an issue, but thanks.”
They say their goodbyes not long after that and you call out that dinner is ready.
Tumblr media
Dinner is a casual affair, curried salmon with an arugula salad courtesy of your mom and dad, Syrah and after dinner weed provided by your brother.
“Can always count on your brother for a decent joint,” Steve says passing it to you.
You take a pull, holding the joint just so between your fingers. Steve used to joke that you hold pretty much anything like a French woman holds a cigarette and you (unfortunately) have to agree.
As it turned out, there was one bed in your room but, it was a California king so there’ll be tons of space between you; not like the trip in November at all.
Your parents had graciously given the pair of you the primary suite with the Juliet balcony and views to the Pacific. Incidentally, this meant you had the luxury bathroom of the house with a jetted tub and ridiculously large shower.
Must be nice to have money.
“Steve,” you say after a while, relaxing just enough to lower your inhibitions, “This is the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me.”
He’s facing you, but only partially illuminated from the bedroom lights. An inkling of a smile graces his lips, “You deserve it y’know.” But what he wants to say is you deserve the world.
A soft laugh, “I don’t know about that,” you take another hit and pass it back to Steve, fingers brushing. “I would reign in your expectations for Christmas morning, pal.”
He takes a final drag before snuffing out the roach, eyes landing on you once again. “Really? I shouldn’t expect some gift that’s equal parts incredibly thoughtful and altogether ridiculous?”
“Okay,” you laugh. “If that’s what you’re anticipating, then you might be in the right ballpark.”
He pours another glass of the Syrah for you, the deep red hue swirling in the glass. He passes the wine glass to you, depositing it in your hand. You take a sip, savoring the notes of blackberry and tobacco. 
Steve pours himself a glass too, effectively killing the bottle and setting it down on a nearby table. “Damn,” he says, “Your brother dating that sommelier really paid off.”
You crack a smile, watching as he leans his forearms against the railing, glass in his hand. Rumpled and tired from a day’s travel, but still cutting a quite the figure in the soft glow of the moon. Unless that’s the wine… or weed talking.
Shit.
“Yeah,” you allow, “Though she wasn’t the biggest fan of my super-taster pallet.” 
“Did I know you were a super-taster?”
You shrug, “It’s my party trick. Good for those fancy dinner parties you drag me to.”
“Yeah,” he snorts, downing a swig of wine. “How so?”
“Well,” you begin, “When I met Vivian over the summer, she prepped a white wine tasting for us, which was super nice.” You lean against the railing, trying to recollect the moment. “So, we begin with the usual suspects, your Sauvignon Blancs, Viogniers, a Chenin Blanc, you know.”
“Oh yes, my extensive knowledge of summer wines,” he teases, “Please continue.” 
“Riiight, so no problems there– was on my best behavior and everything.” You pause to sip your wine, “But then, we get to the Pinot Grigio.”
“Gross.”
“I know!” you agree. “So, we sample that and she asks how it is, the usual stuff. And everyone goes around commenting on a few of the notes they’re able to discern, all well and good. That is, until she gets around to me.”
“Uh oh,” Steve says into his glass, seeing where your story is headed.
“Uh oh is right. Because when I take another sip and ponder the taste of the vintage, I correctly, mind you, identify a note of ... plastic pool toy.”
Steve spits out the remainder of his wine over the balcony and onto the flowers beneath him. “What?” he nearly shouts turning back to you, “P-plastic pool toy?”
“Yeah,” you confirm, “Like those cheap-o inflatable plastic balls in a net at Target.”
He fails to close his mouth, jaw agape. “How could you possibly know what those taste like?”
You shrug, “Pool volleyball,” and finish your drink. “Robs bought some earlier that summer and we had that stupid tournament at your parent’s place. Nance spiked the damn blue marbled ball into my face, so that’s how I know that Pinot Grigio tasted like plastic pool toy - with just a whisper of chlorine to round it out.”
Steve, gathering his senses, laughs softly, “And how did she take that?”
“Oh, Viv?” you say over your shoulder, making your way back inside for the night. “She agreed with me, after doing her own taste test, of course. My brother warned her of my tendencies before the trip, so she was well-prepared.”
“You’re something else.” He says, gathering the empty bottle and glasses from the balcony and shuts the door after him. 
You curtsy and turn to locate your luggage. 
Steve leans back against the door, setting the glasses and bottle on a side table, and observes as you dawdle throughout the room. Suitcase set down on a chair and unzipped hastily to reveal various packing cubes labelled by occasion in Nancy’s deft hand. You rise slowly, lips screwed to the side in perturbation and eyes narrowed.
You fix him with a look, “You and me, we’re fighting later.”
“Oh, sure,” is all he says, struggling to mask his smile.
You turn back to the task at hand, finding pajamas, because you are not repeating the last sleeping arrangement you had with Steve. Which amounted to stealing one of his shirts, sleeping in that and your underwear because you, frazzled as usual, failed to pack pajamas but had somehow stuffed three coats into your duffle bag.
And you know that Nancy, the perennial Girl Scout, won’t let you down. 
Digging until you find the ‘sleepwear’ cube, unhelpfully next to the one labelled ‘pjs’ in something that is definitely not Nance’s handiwork.
Curiosity getting the better of you, you open the mystery package and nearly drop the damn thing on the ground at the shock of its contents. Heat rising from your chest to neck, you make a garbled sound and Steve thinks it best to excuse himself for the moment. He tells you he’ll be back soon and goes to return the glasses to the kitchen. You nod dumbly, packing cube crushed to your chest until he closes the door.
In a panic, you pull the silk and lace from the zippered bag. And it’s not much better when you have all the items laid out in front of you, a risqué and skimpy picture of what someone called ‘pajamas.’ You inspect the handwriting on the cube once more to no avail. A scrap of paper falls out of as you throw it across the room.
‘Merry Christmas big boy! xxxx, Eds’
Finding your phone, you furiously type out a message.
trouble 👁️👄👁️: 🤜 this is my fist coming for your ass
bandcamp 👿: thanks for the heads up, plenty of time to prep!
trouble 👁️👄👁️: trouble sent an image [burgundy lingerie set and sheer robe]
you think you’re funny?
bandcamp 👿: hilarious, actually. surprised you’re breaking it out this soon though
trouble 👁️👄👁️: lsadhflksajd
bandcamp 👿 ‘liked’ this message
MIND YOUR OWN FUCKING BUSINESS
Hearing Steve in the hall, you drop your phone and stuff everything back into its packing cube before he can see anything, cursing Eddie the entire time.
You shove the incriminating the cube back into your suitcase just as Steve opens the door. He pauses and tilts his head to the left.
“Everything okay there?”
Because your elbow deep in the suitcase like you’re hiding something and have gone about ten different shades of red at this point. Your eyes grow wide when you realize Eddie’s note is still at large and currently residing somewhere in this room.
“Yeah, of course,” you grab the correct packing cube and toiletry bag before escaping to the bathroom and slamming the door shut.
“...okay.”
Steve’s phone pings as you start the shower, banging things down on the countertop aggressively. He’ll ask you about it later. He opens his phone to reply to Robin’s earlier message only to see something from Eddie.
Which is weird, because Eddie only texts Steve if he has to.
He opens the thread and reads.
dumbass 🤘: don’t say i never did anything for ya

Steve, taken aback, drops his phone in response.
Tumblr media
Needless to say, the rest of the night went about as well as it could. Upon exiting the shower, you discover that the sleepwear in the packing cube is not, in fact, your own. Instead, it’s brand new with the tags still on for chrissake. Holding the offending garments in your hand, you secure your towel on your chest with your opposite hand and exit the steamy bathroom.
“Harrington” you say, jolting him from whatever he was doing on his phone. You wait for him to glance your way, and clear your throat when he does. “The fuck is this?”
“Uh,” he swallows audibly, “Pajamas?”
“No shit Sherlock,” you grouse, tossing them on his face, “But they’re not mine so the mystery continues.” 
Removing the shorts and shirt from his face, he runs his fingers against the material. “Nance tried to go to yours and grab some stuff,” he says by way of explanation, “But your ex was cagey and shitty with date and times for her to do so,” he sighs and rubs the back of his neck. “And I just figured new stuff would be easier?”
“Oh,” you say, feeling mildly foolish. “That’s— I’m sorry about that, about him.”
“Hey, no,” he says getting up from the bed and walking toward you, “You don’t ever need to apologize for his asshole behavior.” 
He hands you the blue pajama set with white moons and stars with a soft smile, “They’re cute, right?”
You screw your mouth the side and narrow your eyes, “Yes, but that’s not the point, Daddy Morebucks.” You take the shirt and shorts from him with a huff, “I guess these will do, if you insist.”
“Oh, I do,” he replies with a smirk, crossing his arms over his chest. When you turn back to the bathroom, he eyes a scrap of paper under your side of the bed and picks it up.
He reads it with a sigh, fucking Eddie. And taps out a reply.
steeb 🖕: too soon, but well played. much appreciated
dumbass 🤘 ‘liked’ this message
dumbass 🤘: don’t fuck it up and wait too long
Tumblr media
By the time Steve returns from his shower, he finds you snuggled down in bed singing to “Yule Shot Your Eye Out.”
“Guess we figured out the bluetooth then,” he says pulling back the covers and slipping in beside you. 
“Don't come home for Christmas / you're the last thing I want to see,” you croon and hand him the remote.
He joins in with a “Merry Christmas, I could care less,” and cues up the movie for the night. 
You turn off the music. “Steve,” you say, turning on your side to face him, “Are those… leopards on your pajama pants?”
“Obviously.”
“Huh, okay. Just checking.”
The movie in question, which, awkwardly, is the Ryan Reynolds favorite Just Friends. But it was a tradition at this point, and who were you to buck off a time-honored classic such as this? A coward, that’s who.
Because you’re out like a light, and the irony is not lost on Steve when Chris Brander knocks on Jaimie’s door, in an attempt to explain this shitty behavior: “I’d rather have you in my life as a friend than nothing at all.”
He pauses the movie with a sigh, feeling incredibly called out, and hazards a glance at you before he kills the lights. And, sure enough, you’ve wrangled that dumbass pillow over your eyes like some hostage that’s had a bag thrown over their head.
You look adorable but insane; you insist on sleeping with it because it’s like a “hug for your brain,” whatever that means.
So, despite knowing he’ll be momentarily terrified waking up next to that particular sight tomorrow morning, Steve can’t wait to celebrate Christmas with you and your family. He’s only a little worried about the rest of your gifts, and a mildly curious about the lingerie set from Eddie.
Tumblr media
You jolt from a stupor with a gasp. The room has darkened, barely lit by the soft glow of the moon and stars. The blanket from your shoulders has slipped off some time ago, gathering to pool at your feet. Blinking sluggishly, you realize you’re no longer grasping for dear life at the edge of the bed.
Cypress and vetiver. Faint cool aftershave and the vital heartbeat of warm boy. Something heavy and warm draped over your previously cold shoulders.
Another dream.
Yet, it feels more corporeal than ever before and the drumming in your chest strikes a thrilled beat. Your hands wildly pat him up and down, drawing forth a dazed rousing at your antics. You don’t stop, though, running up his bare torso, the fingers tangling in the soft curls on his chest, skating to his strong jaw and chin. Then hair, those long chestnut strands lightly curled at the edges, grown a little longer and wild.
“Steve?”
“Yeah, honey.”
You bristle in disbelief, distracted by the realization with some embarrassment that you’ve been sleeping on top of him for who knows how long.  Stupid syllables stuck like gooey taffy in your mouth, welding your teeth together in a solid disappointment. 
“Y'alright?”
You nod, untangling yourself from him slowly and retreating back to your side of the bed. With a twist of his torso, Steve slips his palm beneath yours, touches each pad of his fingers to your own, bending each fingertip to graze you. 
His eyes search you intently, a little confused, a little relieved.
“I just–” you breathe out, words stuck in your throat. Unable to look him in the eye. “Thank you.”
It’s a whisper in the night, soft and delicate falling from your lips.
“For this, for everything,” you continue breathlessly. 
‘Course, he thinks. I’d do anything to see you smile. Inside of him, an all too familiar weight, heavy with promise.
His selfish heart. His stupid, cowardly, guilty heart. His broken, broken heart. He doesn’t even care to gather it up this time. Or the next.
But it’s Steve’s mouth that opens, sides of his tongue already bent over his molars as he whispers a reply. “Anytime, doll.”
He runs his fingers in his hair, sweeping it away from his forehead, stifling a yawn, eyes your pretty, pretty mouth in a smile. Still dark out, some mysterious hour both too late and too early to be awake, and he couldn’t see you at all—blurred at the edges and wrapped in shadow— but he knew you well enough to know when you were smiling.
He imagines the plush curve of your mouth, how it pressed hot and heavy against his own. You slip away, back to the far side of the bed, hand falling from his. 
His misses your warmth, but turns over anyway. Knowing he’ll struggle to sleep with the chilled distance between your bodies. 
But, his heart is selfish and it always has been. Even now, when it thumps so noisily he’s certain you can hear it. Even now, when you’re tucked in, wonderful and warm, close enough to touch, to hold.
And Steve knows, just like he knew last night with the crush of your lips against him, he’d always–always want you, in whatever way you’d have him.

Congrats on 100 followers! This is such a sweet thing to do to celebrate and I hope you have as much fun writing them as I'm sure we will reading them 💜
I don't want to take up a slot if you get too many requests, but the prompt of photograph made me think about Hange's excitement over Marleyan technology. Would you consider doing a canonverse drabble about Hange getting their photo taken for the first time (or something similar)? Whatever level of platonic or romantic so long as its sweet and fluffy because it's what Hange deserves ☺️
thank you so much! so far i’m really enjoying writing these and i don’t have many at all, so no worries, but i appreciate your consideration<3
i absolutely adore this idea, i hope i did it justice! i got carried away so this is about 900+ words whoops. also i did a lot of research on cameras from the 1910s lol i hope it’s accurate
PHOTOGRAPH
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
hange x gn!photographer!reader, anti-marleyan volunteer!reader, reader is a lame and insecure little photography nerd (affectionate), canonverse
this request is a part of my 100+ follower event; if you’re interested, check out this post!
Tumblr media
people have asked to hold your camera before, but never to examine it — which is exactly what commander hange did after discovering what you do for a living. along with that, they also insisted on a demonstration of what your ‘fascinating marleyan tech’ does — and that’s how you’ve ended up here, with hange turning over and inspecting a heavy, nickel-plated invention called the ‘camera’.
“oi, be careful with that thing,” levi says to hange, but they completely ignore him and continue to handle the instrument with frenzied interest, studying every component up-close and fiddling with its mechanics.
it’s not every day — at least not before you arrived in paradis with yelena and the others — that you see someone so in awe of the technology you’ve grown accustomed to and use regularly. it makes you nostalgic, in a way, seeing hange so amazed by the camera and all its intricate features, as it reminds you of when you first saw one.
“wow,” hange breathes, probably the only thing they’ve said that isn’t mumbled, unintelligible word vomit. “wow, this is just– wow!”
you giggle at their reaction as they take one last look over the camera before handing it back to you, a greater level of care and respect in their hold than before.
“so...” they point their thumb at the chair and backdrop set up behind them with a grin. “we just stand here and you make the ‘photograph’?”
the way they phrase it makes you smile, not bothering to correct them since it’s so endearing and instead just nodding. hange is already by the chair, gesturing to it for levi to sit in. he glares and slaps their hands away, telling them to sit in it. hange teases him about having a complex but complies anyway. you laugh at the scene inwardly while you set the camera on its tripod and readjust its mechanisms. in your peripheral vision, you see hange in the chair, rambling to levi — who’s standing awkwardly behind them — about how they should sit and what expression they should make. you smile and continue to make adjustments; turning the dial, tweaking the aperture, checking the eyepiece. once you’re sure that everything is calibrated, you straighten up.
“okay. please be as still as possible for at least eight seconds,” you announce.
hange sits up. “wait, wait! eight seconds? why is that?”
you’re a little caught off guard by their questions. usually people just nod and do as they’re told because ‘you’re the expert here’ but you admire their curiosity. “um, the camera has a slow shutter speed,” you answer, lightly tapping the lens, “so the photograph will be blurry if you move.”
hange frowns in thought. “what happens if i move on accident? what if i need to sneeze? what if– hey! maybe if you could make a quicker ‘shutter speed’–” they gasp. “or maybe if there was a way to allow it to capture movement–”
“focus, four-eyes,” levi snaps at them, “and quit fidgeting or else the photograph will be shitty.”
“ah, i can’t help it!” hange exclaims. the entire time, they haven’t stopped squirming, too giddy and ecstatic. they keep thinking back to the photo they found in eren’s basement and how soon they’ll have one of their own; a physical, permanent reflection of a moment in time. “this is just so exciting!”
they finally settle down and smile, all teeth. levi has been ready the entire time, posed with his arms folded across his chest; not even looking at the camera, but you suppose that’s likely the best you’ll get and press the button under the lens. the camera clicks and you wait a few seconds before taking it off the stand and opening up the shutter compartment.
hange is by your side in a flash and levi has to catch their chair as it’s almost knocked back from how suddenly they leap out of it. “is it done? can i see?” hange pesters eagerly, hovering over your shoulder and trying to catch a glimpse of the photo. levi follows after them, but stands to the side, waiting.
you laugh. “ah, no, it’s not ready yet,” you tell them. “it needs to be exposed to light for a minute or so before i remove it, and then it’ll take some time to develop, and after that, some more time to print... it’s, uh– it’s quite the tedious process, really.” instead of the typical confused or dumbfounded expression you’re used to, you see admiration and wonder and bewilderment, like hange wants to hear you keep talking, to tell them more about photo production — and that’s when you get an idea.
“actually,” you say, meeting their keen eyes, “i can show you, if you’d like?” they just stare at you, expressionless. “um, it’s– it’s time-consuming so i understand if you don’t want to stay for the whole process–”
“i can?! really?!” they cling to your arm like a puppy, almost delirious in their excitement. their face lurches forward, eyes wide and eager behind their glasses. “can i try making a photograph? please say yes!”
you chuckle. “i’ll have to think about it,” you say and take out the film, then lift it up and show it to hange. “for now, let’s go get this developed.”
hange’s glasses glint as they snicker almost maniacally before grabbing levi by the arm. “leviii!” they shout, and the short man winces at their volume, grumbling a ‘stop yelling’ to which hange responds, “wanna tag along?”
“uh, i’ll... pass,” he says, shrugging off hange’s hands. he glances at you, then back at hange. “i’m leaving. i’ll see you at tomorrow’s morning meeting, hange. don’t be late.”
as he’s leaving, hange calls out, “your loss!” and waits for him to disappear down the corridor before turning back to you. “anyway! ‘developed’, you said?”
you look up from where you’re collapsing the billow back inside the camera. “oh, uh, yes.”
hange grins. “lead the way!”

Hello Liv, hope you are well ❤️ Thank you for the amazing work you do, I am so glad I started following you.
I am struggling a bit at the moment, and was wondering if you had some cozy drarry to recommend? Could be hurt/comfort or anything else, but preferably not to explicit. If you know of some where either of them is dealing with figuring out they are asexual that would be great, but I haven't really found many fics with this before, so no worries if you don't.
Again thank you so much for all that you do, I really appreciate it ❣️
Hello darling, I’m sorry to hear it’s been a rough time for you 🫂 here are some of my favourite comfort fics that I’m always revisiting to lift my spirits. All of them are T-rated, except for Nice Things (M). I hope they help! Take care 💜
Ace Drarry:
Glowing by @cavendishbutterfly (10k)
Harry's lived alone and vampiric in his cottage for ages, until a long-lived Draco Malfoy suddenly shows up to answer an advertisement Harry had practically forgotten he'd put in the Prophet.
Passion Cake by @icmezzo (19k)
It’s all about desire. (Harry orders a magically enhanced cake from a chic London bakery, and from there it all goes to hell in a cake tin. Also, will someone please tell Harry what Passion Cake is?)
Little Deaths and How to Avoid Them (or Draco Malfoy's Guide to Stop Dying and Start Living Instead) by nerakrose and dustmouth (96k)
Malfoy is way too interested in coroner reports for somebody who's definitely not looking for ways to die, Harry wants to be friends with him, and Ginny wants to break up with Harry.
Misc:
Waiting for that Feeling by @sorrybutblog (4k)
Draco Malfoy has a car and Harry Potter is on the case! Featuring Muggle car repair, a road trip to Cornwall, and falling in love in a Ford Fiesta.
Thermodynamic Equilibrium by @dorthyanndrarry (5k)
Harry's far too hot. Draco's always cold. And somehow against all odds, together they create a perfect equilibrium.
Life goes not backward by @shealwaysreads (9k)
Harry still isn’t used to gifts, but this one is different. A story of coming home, finding safe ground, and the wild courage of putting down roots.
warmest part of the winter (orphaned, 11k)
It’s not even a balcony, it’s just a window with a bit of a ledge, and Draco’s read Shakespeare anyway, he knows how this one ends.
How We Throw Our Shadows Down by thistle_verse (14k)
Draco has finally found the perfect, rare piece to complete his collection. The only problem is that the item belongs to Harry Potter, the last wizard on earth Draco wants to ask another favour from.
The Snitch-Maker by Omi_Ohmy (21k)
Draco is content with his Snitches, with the tap tap tap of his hammer, and the tiny gears and sharp scent of metal in his workshop - until one day Harry Potter appears, asking for help to solve a rash of Snitch-tampering in the Quidditch world.
With Great Yawns and Stretchings by sugar_screw (22k)
The coffee is very good. Really. And the cats are so cute. That's why Harry goes so often.
Nice Things by aideomai (M, 22k)
The first thing that happened was Theodore Nott came back from France.
Doing the Lambeth Walk by @blamebrampton (26k)
There are only three traditional choices for the cashed-up hero after victory. Harry Potter is too young to settle down and provide the wizarding world with a happy ending, and has too acute a sense of humour to spiral downwards into a spectacular flame-out. That leaves a life of good works.
Follow the Water by @xanthippe74 (38k)
Harry Potter’s life is fine. Maybe a little dull and predictable, but he shouldn’t complain about that, right? When he unexpectedly finds himself at Luna’s house one afternoon, Harry gets invited to join the secret wonderland that she’s creating with a surprising group of friends.
Like Lightning at Your Fingertips by potterwatch (43k)
The problem with living with another insomniac is, eventually, they find out you’re one, too. When Harry and Draco return for their eighth year, they think they’ll see very little of each other. Then McGonagall assigns them to room together. And the castle starts breaking. And there’s that thing with Potter’s magic.
A Room Up There (And You In It) by @the-starryknight (59k)
When Preservationist Draco Malfoy was assigned to work on Number Twelve, Grimmauld Place, he was excited to delve into the gorgeous Black family antiques. His excitement quickly ended when something in the House decided it did not like his presence one bit.
Art:
Going Postal by dustmouth
So Draco and Harry sort of maybe have a bit of a thing going. Which is all fine and good, but would probably be more effective if they managed to be on the same continent for more than five minutes at a time.

Something in the Night ~ Chapter Six
A/N: I once more apologize for the radio silence here, but I'm finishing up my Master's and only just this week finished the rough draft of my thesis. So, since I've a bit of a break, and since I promised updates would be coming... :)
Thanks so much for sticking it out with me. I do appreciate your patience! 💜
Summary: Following the Battle of the Five Armies, a seriously wounded Thorin Oakenshield returns to Erebor to recuperate and eventually ascend the throne as king. With the deaths of Azog the Defiler and his son, Bolg, Thorin no longer has to worry about the bounty the Defiler placed on his head and can instead concentrate on restoring Erebor to its former glory. 
Nina Carren of Esgaroth has one goal—to make Thorin Oakenshield pay for unleashing Smaug the dragon unto her home—where he destroyed the town and killed her family. The Defiler might be gone, but his bounty remains very much in place, and she fully intends to collect on it. 
Finally, the opportunity shows itself for her to do just that, only to have it go horribly awry. Wounded and now at his mercy, neither Nina nor Thorin stopped to think what might happen, should things not go quite according to plan…
Pairings: Thorin Oakenshield x ofc Nina Carren

Nina bit back a wince as she shifted in her saddle once more. For one used to walking and unused to riding, she had no idea how stiff her legs could actually be until she’d spent two hours astride the pony that was now hers, thanks to the generosity of the elves and their king. 
But, she kept her discomfort to herself as she kept her mind focused on her task and her eyes focused on the dwarf leading the way along the narrow road out of Rivendell. The Misty Mountains rose in the distance, their peaks swirled in a grayish-white mist that occasionally seemed to gleam pink or violet from the sun. 
“Tell me,” Dwalin’s pony fell into step alongside hers, “why are ye here, lass?”
“How many times need I explain it?” She held his gaze even has her fingers tightened about the smooth leather reins she held. “I’ve no love lost for the orcs and if I can help you, I will.”
“No love for orcs, eh?” His eyes narrowed slightly. “Why?”
It was a foolish question, really. Who didn’t despise orcs? They were abominations, interested only in killing. If it wasn't for her personal stake in the matter, she would despise them just the same. But, as much as it galled her to admit it, she needed them to a certain extent. Well, needed their gold anyway. The bounty on Thorin’s head would keep her comfortable for some time to come. And while she knew she couldn't trust the orcs, nor could she fool herself into believing Tarog would pay the bounty without a bit of persuasion on her part, her options were limited and she did need the money. 
And since she knew at some point, someone would ask her a variation of this question, and since she’d had time to prepare herself, she merely shrugged and said, “It’s quite simple, really. They destroyed my village. And if I have a chance to kill one, I take it and do so with a smile.”
“And where is this village?”
“Just west of Bree. I’ve been on my own ever since that night and if you don't mind, I’d rather not speak of it.”
“Why?”
“Dwalin!” Thorin broke in sharply, glaring at him over his shoulder. “Leave her be.”
Nina held Dwalin’s stare easily. “If you absolutely must know, I lost my family that night. All of them. Slaughtered like sheep for no reason. So, you’ll forgive me if I’d rather not relive that night.”
With that, she pressed her knees gently against her pony’s side and nudged it ahead of Dwalin. Let him think—let them both think—recalling her story upset her so much she needed some time to herself. 
Thorin, however, slowed his pony so he eased back into step alongside her. “Pay him no mind.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“Dwalin.” He nodded toward the glowering dwarf behind them. 
“I thought I already was doing that.”
He just stared at her for a long moment, almost as if surprised by her flippancy and she wondered if he suspected something was amiss as he continued to just stare. This was the closest she’d been to him and in the warm sunlight of the clear afternoon, and it then that she realized his eyes were no quite the same steel blue they’d been in Rivendell. Instead, today they were paler. Paler and almost shimmering, like aquamarine in the sunlight. And for one breathless moment, she forgot she hated him, forgot why she was there with him and what she planned to do.
No, for that one breathless moment, she was once more standing in the snowy darkness, just beyond the steps of the Lake Master’s ramshackle house, wishing with everything she had that Thorin would notice her. That he would see her and in the instant he did, he’d be smitten with her just as she’d been smitten with him.
Then a cloud floated before the sun and as the light softened, Thorin’s eyes no longer shimmered. The snow, the darkness, the ramshackle house all fell away. 
But she wondered if he’d felt the same breathlessness she did, as for a moment, the air grew thick with tension and he looked as if he had something heavy weighing upon him. He met her gaze and then offered up a hint of an almost sheepish smile. “I beg your pardon,” he said, his voice low and rather growly, “but for a moment, I thought I might know you from somewhere.”
“Yes, from the other evening, when I—”
“No,” he broke in gently with a shake of his shaggy head, “that isn’t what I meant. I mean, I feel as if I’ve seen you somewhere before the other night.”
It was her turn to shake her head. “I can’t image where. Do you spend much time west of Bree?”
“No, I can’t say I do. The Shire is the farthest west I’ve been in a long time and even that was some time ago.”
“So, then, how would you have seen me before?”
His eyes narrowed slightly, and she found herself holding her breath, a dull thump in time with her heartbeat coursing through her temples. He seemed to be studying her, as if about to nail down exactly where and when he’d seen her.
But what if he did? Did it matter much? She was but a face in that crowd and considering the amount of devastation left in Smaug’s wake, she would be surprised if anyone lived in Esgaroth at all. The last she saw? The half of the town that hadn’t been incinerated was slowly toppling into the lake’s frigid waters. Hardly inhabitable, to say the least. So, it should come as no surprise, should he learn the former denizens of Esgaroth had struck out for other parts of Middle Earth.
Even west of Bree.
But then, Thorin shook his head once more. “No, I suppose I wouldn’t have. Still,” he mused, stroking one forefinger along the side of his jaw, “you do seem familiar.”
“I have one of those faces that everyone thinks they know.” She shrugged as if people swearing they knew her from somewhere happened to her all the time. “No worries.”
“Perhaps, but still…” He turned away from her to look ahead. “Either way, you needn’t mind Dwalin. His bark is usually worse that his bite.”
“I’ll keep that in mind.” She glanced over her left shoulder to see the barker in question still glaring at her. Then, without thinking, she muttered, “He does more than bark and I’ll neuter him for his trouble.”
“I beg your pardon?”
She forced a smile as she looked back at Thorin. “Nothing. Just a bit of thinking out loud.”
“So, tell me,” he replied, “how did you come to be in that clearing anyway? From what I could see, there was no one else about, until that orc pack descended upon us.”
Her heart skipped a beat although she had not been traveling with the orc pack and he had no true reason to believe otherwise. Certain ones within Tarog’s inner circle knew of her existence, but overall? Orcs would have no idea who she was, and she didn't doubt one would run her through as easily as they would the dwarves. 
Still, the last thing she wished was to arouse any suspicions and so replied, “I wasn’t on the road, but traveled instead along one of the pathways that run parallel to it.” She shook her head. “I was alone and I’d rather not happen upon an orc pack on one of the main roads if I can possibly avoid it, you know.”
Perhaps it was but her imagination, but he appeared to blush, a hint of color blooming along his cheekbones, above the line of his silver-threaded beard. “It would be foolish to travel otherwise, yes. But you can hardly fault me for being curious, can you?”
“No, I don't suppose I can.” She tightened her fingers about the worn leather reins as she turned her gaze back to the road ahead as well. “It would seem someone kept you in their good graces.”
“Mahal does smile upon me from time to time.”
“Mahal?” The name was unfamiliar to her.
“The Maker. The Creator of all things.” He smiled then. “Well, to dwarves, anyway. Sometimes He toys with me, but other times, He watches over me with the greatest of care.”
To her surprise, his eyes softened then as he added, “As he did the other night.”
“Yes, well… I did only what any decent person would have.”
“You leaped between me and an arrow. I am not at all certain I’d share your sentiment.”
She shrugged. “Then I’m afraid I don't know what to tell you. You needed help and I could help, so I did.”
With that, she turned her attention ahead of them once more. The Southeast Passage looked like a road that time forgot. Narrow and grassed over, with the underbrush slowly creeping out from the woods along either side of what had once probably been a lovely, narrow little road. But time and neglect and lack of use rendered it as little more than a track at that point. 
But in the distance, the Misty Mountains looked far more real now, black and purple as they rose toward the sky and the sunlight touched their peaks. That would be the worst part of their trek, through those mountains. Once they crossed through them, and came down toward the Anduin River, they would then pick up the Old Forest Road and that would bring them to Mirkwood. 
But, of course she couldn't let them know she knew how they’d get to where they were going. They thought she was from a village west of Bree and she was fine with them also thinking she was a simpleton who had never really been anywhere else until now and was but fumbling her way along. They needn’t know anything else about her. 
“So,” she glanced over at Thorin, “where will we pass the night?”
“We will stop when we are nearer the mountains,” he told her. “I hope you are not adverse to sleeping on the ground.”
“I’m not, no. As I told you, I live nowhere and everywhere.”
“Yes, I do believe you said something of that nature.”
“It’s the only good thing to come of what happened,” she replied softly, shrugging as she spoke. “I’ve been able to travel a bit, even if my lodgings are usually quite humble. Although,” she smiled, “I once came across a cozy cabin nestled in the woods that had been abandoned.”
“Where?”
“Does it matter?” 
“No,” he shook his head, “I don't suppose it does. I’m merely curious.”
“Why is that such a difficult question for ye?” This came from Dwalin who had caught up to them by now.
“I never said it was difficult,” she told him, twisting in her saddle to meet his glower. “And stop looking at me as if you expect me to leap from my horse and drag His Highness into the brush to slit his throat.”
“I just find it odd, that ye came upon a cabin and yet dinna know where it was, where ye were.”
“I asked why it mattered, not that I dinna know,” she growled, her fingers itching to wrap about the leather grips of the sword at her hip. She need only slip it free and turn and in one fell swoop, she could take the tiresome dwarf’s head clean off his shoulders. 
He glared at her, his eyes narrow slivers of silver-blue ice. “Do ye mock me, girlie?”
“Girlie? You are almost amusing, Mr. Fundinson.” Her fingers stretched of their own toward her hip. It was only through sheer will that she managed to keep them wrapped about the worn leather. “Almost.”
“Ye wound me, lass.”
She sniffed and turned forward once more, the tension in her fingers easing as Thorin said, “Take care, Dwalin. The girl has done nothing to deserve your ire.”
“If ye expect me to apologize,” Dwalin growled, “yer going to be disappointed.”
“I expect you to be civil,” Thorin countered evenly. “And you as well, Miss Nina.”
A hint of chagrin swept through her. Dwalin was suspicious of her, and rightfully so, of course, although he couldn't possibly know just how right he was. Still, it wouldn’t do to pick a fight with him and give him even more reason to suspect she wasn’t quite as she seemed. 
They weren’t quite far enough away from Rivendell yet and she wouldn’t have been surprised if Elrond had sent scouts to follow along, keeping out of sight, until they reached the Misty Mountains. Although the alliance between dwarves and elves was a relatively young one, the respect and alliance of one king to another was far stronger. She saw for herself the respect and esteem with which Elrond held the dwarf king, and she had the feeling they were not alone on that passage, and that it was for that reason Elrond suggested traversing it to begin with. Either way, she couldn't risk it.
So, she’d have to wait until they were on the far side of the mountains. Then, between the Carrock and Mirkwood, there would be no one else to get in her way.

Hello, i saw your recent posting. I hope you're doing okay. Thank you so much for your hard work. So, I've just finished rereading A Full Cycle. I was wondering if you have any SS fanfic that have almost the same storyline. Like, Sasuke went staying other place and end with Sakura decided to live together with him.
You can just ignore this, I don't really mind. Thank youuuu. Keep up with good work. God bless! 💞
Hi nonny,
Thank you for stopping by! Your kind words are very much appreciated. 💕🥰
A Full Circle is such a gem, and I wish we had more fics like that. The only other fic I remember where in the end, Sakura actually moved to another village to stay with Sasuke, is this one:
Of Broken Hallelujahs and Healing Hearts By: UnicornPaige Tsunade interrupted, “Just tell me what you want, Uchiha, before I throw you out of the damn village.” Without so much as one hint of emotion, Sasuke said, “Haruno Sakura.” [Rated T, complete]
In this story, Sasuke goes to Tsunade and asks for Sakura's help. She's to go to Otokagure and help them train their medic staff. During the missing, Sakura stays at Sasuke's place and they cohabitate for months. Nothing like forced proximity to create more tension! 😍 This fic is definitely a hidden gem ;)
I hope you enjoy the read as much as I did, have a great week! 💜
Stay Safe,
xoxo

Please tell us more about Donny and Angel I love these two as a couple they so cute! She’s so perfect for him and vise versa. I like to pretend when the series ended they became official they got married. Mikey is the flower girl because that’s hilarious to me and he’s genderqueer so he’s like yes I get to wear a dress. LH is best man because he’s Donny’s best friend. I am not sure what Raph and Leo are lol. I know there’s brides maid but not sure what you call the version for the groom so Raph and Leo are up there with LH.
Aaahdhhs thank you!! 💜💜🥹 I am always at any time so ready to talk about Donny and Angel.
I love your ideas about their wedding! I think since Splinter would be officiating, Raph can give Donny away (is giving grooms away a thing? if it isn't then, oh well it is now), and Leo can be the ring-bearer. Angel's friends Ashley and Jessica who I made up for the Meeting Gramma fic (it's in pinned post) are bridesmaids.
Okay so below the cut, here's some things I've been thinking about, and how I imagine his proposal!
I don't imagine them fighting often, but one thing that would definitely cause friction is his driving. In the show his bros always let him drive, but have you ever noticed how he's crazy? Usually I think it ends up that way because there's a big chase or it's just comedic, but I like the idea that he's actually quite reckless. Tbh, a lot of people I know irl who are really good at working on cars are really bad at driving safely. They know exactly how far they can push that machine and they like showing it, sometimes forgetting to factor in that there are other people on the road and such things as safety laws.
Anyway Angel lost her mom in a car crash where the other driver was at fault. She was six. Neither her nor Ryan have licenses, partially because driving is scary to them but also because they live in New York City.
I don't think Donny would take it well when Angel calls him out about his driving. This is something he taught himself how to do in order to take better care of his family. He didn't have access to the resources she did to learn (experienced drivers, opportunity to legally obtain a license), and she hasn't shown any interest in using them (he doesn't know about how her mom died at the time), so why should he take criticism from her? He gets defensive when she makes a comment, something she is not used to from him, and they both end up pushing and holding onto little things. Angel says she'd just rather not get in the car with him and if he wants to go places with her they can walk. This seems pretty inconsiderate to Don who cannot simply walk through the city, and he doubts she wants to learn how to slink around and jump across rooftops since she doesn't even want to learn to drive.
Once they've both had time to cool down, he apologizes--he hates that he made her feel unsafe, he'd be happy to walk places with her if that's more comfortable, and he'd like her to know he has asked Raph to backseat for him for a while (call him out if he takes corners too fast, breaks laws etc). With him being vulnerable and apologizing, it's much easier for her to realize and admit why it actually scared her so much, that it wasn't all to do with him, in fact she never feels safe in cars. As they've been getting closer she's been worrying a lot that she would lose him somehow. She apologizes for losing her temper and calling him out in front of everyone (everyone probably consists of April, Casey, and his bros). She tells him how much she appreciates that he's trying to do better and that of course she doesn't mind driving places with him, in fact she feels better knowing that if something does happen, she'd know about it right away.
Also kinda thinking maybe Donny teaches her how to drive, later when she asks. I think she'd still feel safer with him at the wheel, especially once he starts being more careful, but it could still be empowering for her to know.
Their proposal~~
He takes her to Central Park--they wouldn't go somewhere like that very often, but they risk it early one November morning for what he will only vaguely call a 'special occasion.'
Anyway it's not hard to stay disguised because he's freezing and wearing so many layers you can't even tell he's round. (We don't really see the turtles in winter clothes much in the show, but after all the chaos had stopped I think they'd be more comfortable doing little things for themselves such as keeping warm). They buy hot chocolates. She makes a snow angel, which he cannot stop laughing about. She keeps close by to keep him warm, which makes him nervous because the ring is in his pocket and she's going to find it before he's ready--he panics and starts a snowball fight. She's in her element. He's getting more flustered by the minute. He's still a ninja though, and holding his own--until in a moment of distraction she nails him right in the face. She's wheezing, crying, cackling and fussing all at once--and when she comes over to help him up he panics again and takes the opportunity to pull out the ring.
It's a puzzle ring. They've talked about it before, and she's never liked the idea of a fancy gem. She wears lots of jewelry, and an engagement ring of all things should be practical to wear daily, not like her studded nose rings or chain necklaces with all kids of loud charms.
He pulls it out and lets them dangle from each other; four rings, all attached to each other. "It takes some work to fit them together," he explains as he assembles it for her, "But it's impossible to take them apart." Allowing herself to get close to people has been a big deal for her since her dad left. He's still haunted by the possibility of just disappearing one day, apparently without a trace.
He's getting teary and having a hard time getting through the speech he planned so carefully. "I want that for us."
She slips the ring on and pulls him into a hug. "I want that, too." Then, as if she's only just thought of it, "Let's get married." Because she's always loved making him laugh 💜

Before you follow or message me (updated Mar ‘24)
💙 Tummy kink blog (no minors) run by a gaining 40-something, bi, demisexual, transmasc feedee belly model who’s played a stomach fetish character called Gurgle Goddess for the past ten years 🍟🍔
💜 👉 Looking for feeders! 👈 Gaining is my serious focus right now!  SW: 6 stone (84lb/38kg) ✨ CW: 17 stone (238lb/107.9kg) ✨ GW: 300lb (21.4 stone/136kg)
🩷 My health limits the amount I can work. Updating Patreon is my priority but I share samples, preview pics and bonus clips on social media as much as I’m able!
🤍 SORRY, I DON’T DM! Especially not if you just send ‘hi’ or ‘hey’. Anything else, I’ll maybe check once in a blue moon and ask you to send me an ask or an email instead!
🩵 My posts are often filtered by tumblr so feel free to check my blog occasionally for the things you may have missed!
Before you message me:
Gurgle Goddess is just a character I play - I’m a real person (hi! 🤗) go here if you want to send asks for me to answer in character: @ggmorereal and here where I’m just being myself: @imthemiddleman
‼️ NO TRIBUTES ‼️ Enjoy my content however you like! I just don’t wanna see or hear about it!
🔸Please Don’t:🔸 Flirt, use familiar, cute or feminine nicknames or terms, or talk about touching/doing things to any part of my body, that makes me really uncomfortable
✨💛 Happily taken 💛✨ very devoted to my lovely partner Luce! 🥰 💍 been together over 10 years 🥰
Please don’t send pics/vids - I really appreciate the thought! It just makes me uncomfortable, I’m sorry! the only tummy I’m into is my lovely partner’s 🥵 and a possible exception of maybe two fictional characters (yeah, you know who one of those is 😑😑😑)
I’d rather be complimented than teased/degraded - I’m proud of my body, belly & gains 🩵 I only like the other stuff from Luce 😈
Sorry, I don’t IM, but I love asks!!! especially anons I can post 🤗
Sorry, I can’t do small talk! I’m autistic, exhausted and extremely socially awkward, I’m always happy to answer questions in asks but that’s about my limit 🤯
🩷 My favourite parts of the kink (in current approx order!):
Weight gain (not into unrealistic or excessive/immobility)
Burping
Stuffing/Bloating/Overeating
Strongfat
Belly noises
Digestion
Upset tummy
Internal Gas
Object vore (marbles etc)
💜 Lesser parts of my kink (often only of interest in specific circumstances):
Hiccups
Hunger noises (I HATE being hungry so growls are way less exciting to me but are more interesting now I’m fatter and they give my greed away so much more than they used to 🤫!)
Stretch marks
Full bladder/desperation
Pregnancy/mpreg
🖤 On Hold: Farting
Please leave farts WELL alone right now. in addition to the severe health issues that make this impossible rn the way some members of the community have bombarded me about this over the years have at this point destroyed the tiny part of it I found enjoyable. If I‘m ever to enjoy this in *any* way again or have any inclination to make fart content in future it’s really important that I find my *own* way into enjoying this again to even a small degree. Time and space are the best way for that to happen - thank you for understanding 💕
🩶 Personally not into:
Being hungry/starving
Inflation
Vore
Farts (right now)
💔 Turn-Offs:
Vomiting (actually phobic, can only tolerate in written form)
Scat
More extreme farting stuff (face sitting etc, big turn off)
Unrealistic weight gain/eating
💚 And if anyone’s interested, here are some of my Non Belly kinks:
Mind control
Intox
False memory
Embarrassment/humiliation
Drag (obviously :P)
Body transformation? I mean, weight gain comes under that umbrella too obvs but things like (not extreme) muscle building, body mods, other body changes
I also have a lot of non-con/survival kinks that serve as trauma processing.
Romance/yearning/jealousy/tragic love (I have issues ok??? :P T has done a number on my emotions!!!) (and yes it is a kink, as i’ve come to resentfully admit, much to my chagrin and Lucy’s amusement!!! 😫😅)
Captain Jack fucking Harkness 😑😑😑 I think he counts 😫
Aside from belly stuff I’m total fandom trash, talk to me about Torchwood and I’m putty in your hands :P

So if you're reading this and you have access to TotK, I have a favour to ask! I've yet to see anyone post any height comparisons between the models of the main characters - even adding "reddit" to the end of my query didn't help google yield the answers I wanted. :')
If you're able, I'd really love some screenshots that compare the heights of Link and Ganondorf, and Ganondorf in his Demon King form specifically. If you can get me a nice side by side comparison where they've both got nice, straight posture I'd really appreciate it!
The easiest way to do this might be to snap a picture of him and use it to make a sculpture for Kilton's monster gallery? Assuming that the sculpture is 1:1 scale, of course, which some of the larger ones are obviously not. I've seen a few screencaps of his sculpture but no one has thought to pose right next to him on the same footing as of yet so their usefulness is limited!
Anyway if anyone manages to take/find these screenshots for me I'd be ever so grateful, this is for 100% unwholesome purposes and I do fully intend to make use of the information you provide to make art that violates Tumblr's community guidelines. ( b ._.)b
Thanks! 💜
NB: What would be really ideal is a direct comparison of the models in their neutral T-pose position as in the well-known height chart for the characters' TP models, so if someone's able to rip them or spawn them in via an emulator and mods, that'd be the holy grail. Please.

Pick a card (Pick a T-shirt) Tarot reading
Tumblr media
What do your spirit guides want you to know? 💜✨️
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Please REBLOG so this message can reach more people and my effort not to have been for nothing. Thank you! 💕
Group 1 ♍️: Your spirit guides want you to know that there is an opportunity for you to create something in the physical world. Something that will help you get luxury in your life, things that you can indulge in through your physical senses. For most of you, there are finances coming your way. You might get these finances, this physical opportunity with the help of writing. It might be writing an email for a job opportunity, writing something online, writing a letter, an essay, sending in your CV, something like that. Now is the right time for you to take action towards a physical opportunity, if you're looking for a job, etc. Remember that just like a seed, this too needs its own time to grow, so be patient, you will get to your luxury. You are getting this opportunity, because you've done your healing, and have changed the way you react to a lot of situations. Some of you have more healing to do. But you need to communicate with someone, to communicate your truth, in order to get your luxury. Also, stop having the mindset of things being so difficult, allow yourself to see them as simple, and set a clear direction for yourself. For some of you music is what's gonna get you this opportunity. Another thing that your spirit guides want you to know is to connect with your inner child, have fun, dance, be happy, see life from a more simple pov. Heal your inner child, your past traumas to be able to take advantage of this opportunity.
Get your t-shirt here 💜
Group 2 ♒️: Your spirit guides want you to know that you are overworking yourself. You may feel overwhelmed by all that you need to do, but you keep pushing, thinking that that's the best thing to do, or that you even enjoy doing so many things. You might be multitasking, you need to stop and take a break, group number 2. You really, REALLY need a break. That's the most important thing you need to do right now, trust me. It's a karmic lesson from past lives, that you need to remember right now. Sit down with yourself and ask yourself how you're feeling. Is doing all of this really good for you? Does it actually make you happy? Are you burnt-out? An introspection is needed.
Get your t-shirt here 💜
Group 3 ♋️: Group 3, you have been overindulging in something. You might feel like you can't be happy without it, like you have nothing if you don't have it. Some of you have already gotten over this addiction, though, and things are already looking up because of that. Success is on its way to you, have trust in that. If/because you let go of these unhealthy attachments. It might be that you're focusing on what you lack, and aren't seeing tangible progress, fear not, you are progressing. Have faith, and keep going. Also, you need to let go of attachment to the results, and have patience. You may have lost something recently, felt disappointed, sad, but now things will start to look up, and succes is on its way to you. You might be dissatisfied, because you want more, or something else. Appreciate what you have in this moment. Be grateful. Even if you're going through difficulties, trust that everything is happening for your highest good. You might feel unworthy of receiving good stuff, like you haven't put in enough effort to get them. But you are worthy, enjoy them and be grateful, don't deny them.
Get your t-shirt here 💜
If you'd like to help me out and encourage me to make more pick-a-cards like this, you can tip me here. ❤️
I have no explanation for the difference in size of the groups... 😅
