#this took 3 hours ahhhhhhh

This week I have acquired a dark and terrible new skill
I took this week off to recover from the agonies of slaving for the corporate machine without respite. Since it's me, I couldn't do something normal like "go to the beach" or "travel to Dollywood". Oh no, friends, this week I have dedicated myself to learning a new skill, one that will open up new depths of glorious cosplay depravity: I've learned how to make latex wound prosthetics from scratch.
Tumblr media
Step 1: Clay sculpting. Haven't used modeling clay since I was in grade school. Pretty sure my art teacher didn't have this in mind when she taught me how to make Sculpey beads.
Tumblr media
Step 2: Plaster of paris poured over the clay, then set for 24 agonizing hours of waiting to find out that the plaster set too quickly and ruined the whole thing, followed by another 24 agonizing hours with a new brand of plaster and a little bit more water in the mix. I still ended up with some bubbles in the mold even with my best attempt, so there's room for improvement for sure, but I eventually got a half-way decent mold.
Tumblr media
Step 3: Latex goes in the mold. I did this twice as well, experimenting with two different brands of liquid latex. To no great surprise, I liked the expensive Ben Nye product better than the cheaper Monster liquid latex off Amazon. The Monster latex had a TERRIBLE ammonia odor - Ben Nye was a bit less nasty and poured better.
Tumblr media
Step 4 (the best step): Paint that nasty scrap of skin. I didn't do any research into the best products for this application, just dug in to what I already had in stock - a combination of SFX body paints and regular makeup products.
Tumblr media
And a little dab of Kryolan SFX blood for that extra ooze.
Ahhhhhhh, friends... there's truly no stopping me now.

professor!eddie I’m screaming and crying!!!
It’s was too good! why is him being a professional ruining me? it’s all I want to read now.
you got everything in it too, Steve being a dad, eddie and the band playing together, the dynamics between eddie and the ‘older kids’ plus max ahhhhhhh
you also write at such a rapid rate! I think I saw that you were were going to do this fic only days ago and here you are murdering us all with it!
if there are anymore parts I can’t wait to read them and anything else you create you wonderful human!
Love M
anyone who knows me well enough can tell you that i churn out smut fics at a ridiculous rate, it’s a problem. it’s just that if an idea sticks with me, i can write is so easily—hence why it took me less that 48 hours to get part one done lol.
i really wanted it to have a tangible plot and backstory to it while also making some type of sense, i didn’t want to just throw reader in there like a total horndog, because god knows i would.
so i wanted to make sure it all connects and doesn’t seem totally pointless and out of place and i have lots more to write out for those two, i really hope everyone enjoys it! & thank you for the sweet words. <3

"please...someone help me"
"hold on!"
that was the day I met him. Sanemi Shinazugawa, the wind pillar, had saved me from what he called a 'demon'. I was sixteen at the time and no longer had anywhere to go. so.. I followed him home.
"will you stop following me!" he yelled as I fell from a tree.
"how'd you know I was there?" I got up and dusted myself off as he remained quiet and continued to walk. "hmm? hey wait! I got some questions for you"
I ran up to him as he remained silent and slightly sped up. "how'd you do that cool swooshy thing?" I said as i waved my hands around.
"it's not just some swooshy thing! its called wind breathing now fuck off!" 'jeez what a temper'
"c'mon, don't be like that" I said clearly making him more pissed off than he already was.
"will you just fuck off! I dont want your praises or whatever so get lost!" ... is he for real
"psh, I’m not here to praise you. I want you to teach. me" 'god, this guy honestly though I was gonna praise him'
"hah! yeah right! o bother somebody else"
I didn't. I actually continued to follow him and watch him train, he made the rude obnoxious comment every now and then but he never made a move to et rid of me.
after about a year, he actually started to teach me about demons and slayers, breathing techniques and total concentration breathing and final selection. I could never properly master wind breathing that's when I met this beautiful lady called Mitsuri Kanroji.
"so you saying that I could potentially develop my own breathing technique"
"yeah! you can! once you learn one breathing technique, you can make your own based off that one!" she said as she stuffed her moth full of food.
finally, after another year I went to final selection and absolutely aced it! soon enough I made my way up to one of the top tiers in the demon slayer corpse!
all I had to do was defeat an uppermoon or a lowermoon and I could finally become a hashira.
But I never wanted to become a hashira like this.
“RENGOKU!” We had defeated a lowermoon yet standing in our way was uppermoon 3.
it all happened so fast one minute he was there with his hand straight through Rengoku the next tanjiro was slicing his arm off.
“YOU COWARD! YOU THINK YOUVE WON! BUT DEMON SLAYERS ARE ALWAYS FIGHTING IN THE NIGHT WHERE YOU HAVE THE UPPER HAND! YOU COWARD! YOU HAVENT WON! RENGOKU WON THIS BATTLE! AHHHHHHH” Tanjiro shouted insults to him as he ran away like the coward he was.
“y/n” I walked over to him. “I really do hope you become a hashira. You have clearly proven yourself today that you are worthy”
‘I’m really not though’
“everyone, I’d like you to meat the Shadow Hashira” Oyakata-sama always spoke in such a soothing way. But it didn’t stop me from thinking that I didn’t belong here
“What a poor soul” a man said as he rubbed his hands together. “I’ll pray for you”
“Thank you” and with that the annual hashira meeting began
“y/n. Gyomei I’d like you to stay for a moment” Oyakata-sama said as everyone else left.
“There is reason to believe that the lowermoons have been dismantled and that only the upper moons remain” he began and a kusagai crow flew into the room.
“but thanks to my messenger there is reason to believe that a lower moon has been hiding out near (your old village)”
“what! Sorry.” I quickly sat back down as thoughts raced through my mind.
there maybe no one left for me at my home, but still the towns folk were very nice to me.
“yes it is sad indeed, so I have decided to send you two. Hopefully this will help you get aquatinted with your fellow hashira y/n”
and with that we set off on our journey. “We’re catching a train?” I asked
“yes, if you want we can find another form of transport” I will admit I’d hoped that I never had to go on a train again, but I guess I was wrong. “no it’s ok. I’ll manage” almost no words were exchanged on our voyage. The trip took at least 4 hours and it was already getting late. I tried so hard to not fall asleep, in fear of being trapped in a dream once again.
“it’s ok” I flinched at the sudden noise. “You can sleep, I will make sure nothing hurts you, or these passengers”
I’ve only known this guy for a few hours yet I trust him with my life.
“thank you” and soon enough I fell into a peaceful slumber with his large happi draped over my shoulders

I JUST WATCHED EP 3 AND YOU WERE SOO RIGHT!! ITS SO TENDER AND ADGKLADFJKL,,, I LOVE THE INSIGHT INTO GARMADONS INNER STATE WE GET AND HOW HE IS TRYING TO UNDERSTAND THINGS IMPORTANT TO HIS SON DESPITE LIVING MOST OF HIS LIFE BY OPPOSITE PRINCIPLES ITS SO GOOD I CANNOT THANK YOU ENOUGH FOR CONVINCING ME TO WATCH IT
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Y E A H
literally i just. The Fall™️ Ruined me. like. ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh. i remember i was a senior in high school. it was february first 2019. we had a two hour delay that day. i was running down the halls, grabbing my headphones, going on tumblr, searching searching searching for the link to the episode being live streamed on youtube... found it. made it to the band lobby. started pacing. played the episode. nine minutes and thirty seconds in, and cole fell... most of the students had gotten on the buses or left at that point... i screamed...
aNYWAYS that episode ruined me <3
um. in case you couldn't tell. cole is my favorite character lol. but also no like that scene was just done SO WELL and if you read kai and zane's lips, zane literally says "cole is dead" and kai yells "NO HE'S NOT" like. f r i c k. and when they tell lloyd and pixal and garmadon... oh that scene gives me literal chills. the "THERE'S MORE TO LIFE THAN SURVIVING, GAH!" is one of my favorite lines EVER and sam vincent's delivery is just. incredible.
ahem yes anyways i am normal about this. YEAH THE SCENE BETWEEN GARMADON AND VINNY IS SO GOOD !!!
I AM SO GLAD YOU STARTED WATCHING IT NINJAGO IS SO GOOD AHHHHHHH
i will warn you that s11 is not... the best season ever? like. okay. it's pretty long and split into two chapters: fire and ice. unfortunately, the fire chapter is mostly filler:/ the ice chapter is a lot better, tho! it's not like my favorite season ever and is prolly my least favorite of the post s10 seasons so far, but it does have some genuinely good moments!
s12 and s13 are actually in my top three favorite seasons i think! i know some people are iffy on s12 but i quite literally do not care and love it, but s13 is regarded as one of the best seasons of the show, from what i've seen at least! it gives us different ninja interactions and it's FINALLY a cole season!!! you know, only took tHIRTEEN SEASONS for a cole-centric season but WHATEVER lol anyways

Prologue: Hide & Don’t Seek
The day of October 23rd, 2077 had begun like any other Saturday for Zyn on a day he was going to play with his friends. His mother woke him up from his slumber with promises of a warm breakfast, he slipped into his khaki shorts and summer short sleeve button up shirt, and they were off in the car to this weekend’s meeting spot. His mom, and his friend’s moms brought them to a local park or recreation area every weekend. She said it was to get all of their energy out for a quiet Sunday.
This weekend they were all heading up to the hill where they had built the big shiny Vault he had learned about in school, and ever since had begged his mother to take him.
“It’s nothing but a heavy metal door in the cliffside honey…” She used to say trying to convince him otherwise. But that wasn’t going to stop Zyn from dreaming about what they had locked on the other side! Zyn stared out the window, dreaming of what may lie behind the great metal door…
They arrived quicker than he imagined and unbuckled himself from the car seat almost as soon as the car had stopped. “Hey mister!” His mom glared and started at him. “What’s the rules on adventures?” She quizzed.
He stopped before he could open the door. “1.) Stick together, safety in numbers, 2.) don’t stray too far from homebase, and 3.) smart thinking!” He repeated knowing the three-step mantra his mother had set out for them. He hopped out of the car before she could even acknowledge he was right and made a B-line for his friends already waiting for him. He didn’t know it, but his mother gave him a lot of freedom for a six year old but she knew he had a good head on his shoulders.
_____________________________________________________
They played for hours; Marie, Damien, and Zyn exploring the hillside where people came from miles and miles around to see the gleam of the Vault 76 door towards the top of the hill. They were having so much fun playing hide and seek, tag, and other games Zyn almost forgot about the Vault door he was so excited to see.
They sat on a picnic table down the hill from the Vault catching their breath and watched as it seemed to get busier around the area. Military vehicles began to pull up to the parking lot below the Vault and as soldiers loaded out they all saw the most amazing thing. “POWER ARMOR!!” They all gasped in excitement. “WOAH…” Zyn said under his breath. More cars, fancy cars rolled in after them with logos from the Vault-Tec University up north in the city. Zyn recognized it and spoke up.
“I know those! Those are from the university up in Morgan’s Town!” He said proud of his knowledge.
“You idiot, it’s MORGANTOWN, not Morgan’s Town.” Marie corrected him. Zyn was smart but Marie was way smarter. She’d go to the university for sure Zyn thought.
Almost as suddenly as it all started, more and more cars piled in, but the soldiers didn’t let them all through. People were getting mad, really mad, when they wouldn’t let them through. “What’s going on?” Marie asked. 
“I don’t know…” Zyn replied as confused as she was.
“Let’s go check it out!” Damien said, hopping off the table. He was always the most adventurous and brave of the bunch.
Zyn and his friends snuck around to the fence where hoards of people were piling up and arguing with the soldiers. It seemed like they wanted to get to the Vault. The soldiers in Power Armor had to step in. The crowd swelled, pushed, and pulled like a tide was washing against the military barricade and soon Zyn, Marie, and Damien were pulled in by its undertow.
“Ahhhhhhh! Help me!!” Marie yelled as the adults around her enveloped her in their masses.
Before either friend could do anything, the same happened to them. Zyn began to panic as countless sweaty and violet appendages beat on him from all angles. He couldn’t get free from the mass of people and they were hurting him. He took an elbow to the eye, making him fall to the ground. Feet began to kick into him and step on him from everywhere as he curled into a ball to protect himself the best he could. “AHHHHHHH! STOOOOPPP!!!” He cried helplessly on the ground.
As he continued to take a beating of stomps, kicks, and other abuses he felt a hand grab his and begin to pull. Once the hand pulled him a few feet, it yanked him to his knees and offered a quick command. 
“Come on, let’s go!” Said an unfamiliar young woman's voice. 
Zyn was too beaten and bruised to not follow, and before he knew it he was following behind a young lady and her mother who took him past the tide of people, past the security, and trailed a group of armed Vault-Tec employees. His head hurt, the light bothered his eyes, and he wanted his Mom but he didn’t know what to do about any of them besides continue to cry. As they began to walk up stairs, leading to who knows where, Zyn heard a loud siren begin and an awfully loud creaking noise. He also heard the crowd he was pulled from swell in angry noises as well. He continued on being pulled by the unknown girl.
As they climbed more stairs Zyn had hoped, even prayed in a sense, that the young lady and her mother would be delivering him to his own mother. He realized next that wasn’t the case. They continued on and as Zyn squinted his eyes to protect himself from the harsh sunlight and peered through the waterfall of tears running out of his eyes, he realized they were at and soon passed the Vault 76 door.
He panicked, unsure of what to do, and the results were more tears and quiet sobs. He now realized how much the crying was causing him pain in his chest area. Everything was happening so fast! He didn’t know what to do. What happened to Marie & Damien, where was his Mom, why did a new alarm sound start, and why did the awful screeching sound begin again.
The door to Vault 76 rolled along its toothy track and settled into place. It fit snugly into its place as designed, let out a steamy hiss, and sealed for the next twenty-five years.

AHHHHHHH TRUST ME I LOVE THE RAIN TOO!!!!!😔😔 but not when it goes on for this long......<///3 sometimes the rain here is too aggresive and it's annoying cause i have to walk a lot:( i wear glasses and a lot of times i end up not seeing anything because of all the droplets that get on them ajdbdjsb and the grey sky has been sucking all the energy and motivation out of me:( whenever it has been slightly sunny this week it was all gone after like...2 hours.....i need a FULL sunny day PLEASE!!!!!😞
86f sounds insane to me rn omg i don't think it's ever been this warm here since september??😳 also that's such a sudden difference??????? :0 make sure you dress warmly, cause those changes can easily make you catch a cold >:( for me it's also been around 50f, sometimes lower in the morning!! and it feels even colder because of the wind😖😖

-------------------------------------------
Online Friends, Real Life Rescues
Sapnap was sitting at his desk, playing a game and laughing as his friend made a joke. Sapnap was a borrower, a tiny human living in the walls of a giant's house. However, it wasn't any giant's house. The giant he was living with was a friend of his...Well, more of an online friend than in person.
There's a code all borrowers followed, and Sapnap was one of the mere hundreds of borrowers who knew this code: Never, ever talk to or be seen by a giant. He didn't know what was so wrong with being seen by a human, but eventually, he learned hands-on what happens to borrowers when they interact with humans.
About a month ago, Sapnap was hanging out with some borrowers about two houses next to him. The borrowers he hung out with were always playing dangerous and being risky any chance they could. As much as Sapnap loved to be a bit reckless too, he would also be concerned about the number of times his friends were almost seen by the giants. And one day, what he feared finally happened.
3 weeks ago, Sapnap was invited over to his friend's his for a game of sorts. Sapnap didn't know what the game was gonna be about, but he was more than happy to join his friends. When he got to the house, he searched for his friend, but to his surprise, he couldn't find them. Maybe the game was hide and seek? Sapnap highly doubted it, and there was no way he could search the entire house in one night.
As Sapnap walked past one of the holes that overlooked the kitchen, he frooze. He went back to the hole and saw one of the humans sitting at the table, and in their hands were his friends. He at first was curious. Maybe the human wasn't gonna harm them? But he was instantly proven wrong as the giant shoved his friends into their mouth, swallowing them quickly without remorse. Sapnap choked out a horrified gasp and stumbled backward. He couldn't believe what he just saw!
Sapnap wasted no time and ran home, being quick to tell his parents of what he just witnessed. He finally understood why giants were dangerous...They could easily kill borrowers whenever they pleased. He couldn't control it, or prevent it, he was absolutely helpless.
The next few weeks, Sapnap spent most of his time building up a computer for himself using an old phone he found, as well as some wires hidden in the walls. He also studied the giant he was living with. From what he could tell, they very much disliked showing their face. They also seemed to be a big gamer, and this sparked curiosity inside the borrower.
Sapnap slowly began to trust the human, seeing as they one, hadn't noticed him yet. And two, were nice to the people beyond the screen.
Sapnap had finally built up his computer and began to discover the online world, the more he searched, the more he was fascinated. Soon, he had found the channel. The channel owned by the human he was living with. They went by the name Dream...Sapnap liked that name. It made a smile come to his face whenever he said the giant's name, and he didn't know why. He reached out to the human online and asked to Minecraft challenge with him, and to his surprise, the giant happily excepted his offer.
And here he was, playing with an online friend that was a giant and who was extremely nice to him. Maybe he was wrong about all giants being monsters. Maybe there were some gentle giants in the bunch.
"Hey, Sapnap, you there?" Dream's voice echoed in Sapnap's ears, snapping his focus back to the game and call he was currently in. He must've been spacing out again...
"Y-yeah! Sorry man, I was just thinking about something and I guessed I spaced out." Sapnap chuckled, causing Dream to wheeze like a tea kettle over a burner.
For the next few hours, the two played their game. Shouting, laughing, and cheering as they played. Eventually, nighttime fell upon the boys and Sapnap had grown tired.
"Hey man, I'm extremely tired. Should we can it a night?" Sapnap asked, soon hearing Dream chuckle.
"Yeah, I'm tired too, let's call it a night."
The two said their goodnights and closed out of the call for the night. The borrower leaned into his chair, a smile planted on his face as he stretched his arms out and yawned.
Sapnap pulled himself out of his chair and made his way to his room, which he had set up right near his friend's bedroom. He looked through the small hole he made that overlooked the Blonde's room and noticed Dream chuckling as he sat on his bed.
Sapnap shared his own chuckles as Dream began to wheeze like a tea kettle again. He turned and climbed into bed, still smiling as he laid his head down and closed his eyes.
The next morning came, and Sapnap awoke to the sound of Dream talking and tapping from a keyboard.
He lifted himself up from his bed and yawned before turning his focus to the hole. He stumbled out of bed and saw his good friend, Dream, was up and already active on his games.
Sapnap walked away from the hole, slipped on his backpack, and decided to go grab some food from the kitchen. He was starving after all, and with Dream busy, he wouldn't be seen.
Upon passing through the hole that lead into the kitchen, he took a moment to look around the huge, intimidating room that stood before him. He had only done this twice, yet each time he was nervous and shaking right down to the bone.
As the borrower began to look for some food, his body froze when he heard a low, loud growl from behind him.
To terrified to turn around, he instead sprinted back to the hole in which he entered from, but his pathway of escape was cut off with a large paw slamming down right in front of him. Sapnap skidded to a halt and slipped backwards, his back hitting the hard, tile counter.
He opened his eyes to be met with a large cat staring down at him, almost as if it was sizing him up to be eaten. Sapnap screamed for his life, quickly getting up to his feet and running behind some glass cups. The cat was quick to chase him, and in the process, it knocked one of the glasses off the counter while trying to grab the borrower.
Dream lifted his head hearing a glass shatter in the kitchen. He was confused, what knocked it over? Dream took his headphones off and left his bedroom.
Upon entering the kitchen, he was met with a shattered glass on the floor and his cat, Patches, trying to grab something.
"Patches! No! Bad cat! What are you doing?!" Dream snapped, causing the cat to quickly bail from its little hunt and book it out of the kitchen. Dream groaned, clearly annoyed at the mess the cat made. Before he could start picking up the shards, he heard sobbing...Quiet sobbing from behind the glasses his cat was just in front of...
Dream grew curious and slowly approached the glasses. As he slowly moved them away, his eyes widen at the sight he was seeing.
There, huddled close to the wall, sobbing uncontrollably...Was a borrower. Dream gasped seeing them. He had heard about borrowers, or tiny humans that live in the homes of people, but never had he imagined he'd actually see on before!
Sapnap had been scratched by the cat, and it was badddd. A large cut trailed up his leg starting near his foot. He began to cry, because boy did it fucking hurt. He didn't want to move, he was too afraid to as the cat tried to grab him. Suddenly, a loud voice echoed in the kitchen, and the cat scrambled away in a hurry. He kept his eyes shut however, for he was to afraid as to what was going on.
Soon, the sound of glass being moved away made Sapnap huddle close to the wall, his eyes glued shut, not daring to open them.
Dream reached his hand toward the borrower before pausing. They were hurt. Dammit, Patches had gotten them already.
"Hey." Dream said softly, the borrower flinched a little at the sudden voice.
"Hey, it's ok, I'm here to help." Dream spoke, his words soft as silk.
The borrower slowly opened their eyes and look toward Dream before gasping and backing up. They didn't get very far, as they instantly yelped in pain and fell.
"Woah! E-Easy there, I just want to help." Dream explain, trying to hold back asking questions.
Sapnap had fliched at the sudden loud voice above him, and he couldn't help but slowly open his eyes. He instantly regret it as he looked up, only to be met with a giant staring down at him. He yelped out of fear and panic while trying to pull himself away, but it was proven futile as he cried out in pain and fell down, his leg throbbing in pain.
"Please don't kill me!" Sapnap begged, keeping his hands in front of his face. When nothing happened, he pulled his hands away and looked to the giant, who had a look of worry and concern all over them.
"K-Kill you? I would never!" Dream spat out before composing himself.
"I just want to help you is all."
Sapnap didn't know if he wanted to trust this giant. A part of him was screaming to run away, just run and stay safe...But the other half of him was telling him something different. This was his friend, someone who had been so nice and caring to him in the online world...Now was his friend's chance to prove he was that same way in the real world.
"You promise you won't hurt me?" Sapnap asked, receiving a nod from the giant as an answer.
Dream gently scooped the borrower up into his hands and made his way back to his room. Though...He found it funny. This borrower almost sounded like his online friend.
End of Part 1

TBZ reactions to their s/o being shy and having an rbf in public but really talkative around ppl they know
requested by: @dalivanmagritte 
i’m reallly sorry this took me so long to post! T__T I thought I’d be able to finish it in one day,,, but that unfortunately was not true. I hope you enjoy! <3
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sangyeon:
would be so used to you being super talkative and fun that whenever you were both in public he was surprised by how scary you could look when not smiling. like he’d look over and see you zoning out bc you felt really uncomfortable around strangers and he’d be like “shoot i need to go talk to her before someone thinks she’s plotting murder” so he’d rush over and be like “whatta thinking about that makes you look so grim?” and you’d be like “oh i was just wondering if I should wash my clothes when I get home or wait until tomorrow” and he’d like blink--- and then shake his head wondering how you can be so different around strangers than you were when you were around ppl you were comfortable with. he likes to stay near you most as much as possible in public bc he knows it makes you more comfortable.
Jacob:
the first time you met he was like “oh she’s scary!!” and then his friend introduced you to each other and you became friends and then he completely forgot about ever thinking you were scary bc you were so talkative and silly around your friends. but then after you started dating you went out together and he left for a moment and you started to feel really uncomfortable around all the ppl there and so you stopped smiling and looking around with interested and just sat there with a serious face avoiding all eye contact and when he came back he had a flashback of first meeting you and was like “ummm hey” and you looked up and smiled and looked like your usual self that he was use to and he was like “you look mad scary when you’re not smiling” and you laugh and you’re like “I know. It keeps the weirdos away” you don’t spend that much time around ppl you don’t know after you started dating him though, so it’s all good
Younghoon:
I mean, he sort of has an rbf too so you’ll would connect over that, like the first time you met you were at the library studying and you both looked so scary everyone avoided y’all so you started sitting at the same table so others could sit together away from y’all and then one day something funny happened and you both laughed and you both looked so pretty smiling that everyone in the library was like *mouth drops open* anyways, you and younghoon kinda start liking each other bc you’re always together at the library so you start dating and you’re so happy together you forget how scary you both look until you go out into public alone and look like murder is on your mind. You have a picture of each other smiling as your lock screens so you remember to smile and not scare ppl in public. 
Hyunjae:
he’d tease you a lot lol. he knew you for a long time so he kinda got used to your rbf when you were around unfamiliar ppl so he teases you so you smile and look cute again. and he knows you could talk for hours once you're around ppl you like, and he loves that more than anything. he actually realized he was in love with you while watching you zone out across the room. like he always thought “where would this girl be without me” and then suddenly he was like “wait--- i need her more than she needs me” but he just loves seeing you looking all scary in public and ppl lowkey being afraid of you and so you approaches you all coolly and is like “YAH!!” right in front of your face and everyone is like “this dude is gonna get socked in the nose for that” and then you just smile and he’s like “yes. mission accomplished” and everyone’s like “hold on she looks really friendly when she’s smiling!” but they never get a chance to talk with you once hyunjae is around bc he keeps you all to himself knowing you feel more  comfortable and happy that way and he loves listening to you talk.
Juyeon:
legit thought you hated him at first and was like “shoot i made this girl hate me and idek what i did” and then one of your friends walks up and you start smiling and he’s like “oh. that girl is beautiful! and she looks really friendly once she smiles” so he tries to get to know you and you instantly like him so you begin talking freely with him and he’s like so whipped for you whenever you smile which is often when you’re talking. so he just listens and listens while you go on and on. and he just loves that he won your trust. he wonders how he could ever think you were scary until you’re left in the corner of the room by yourself and you feel afraid around a lot of strangers so you stop smiling and talking and avoid ppl and he’s like “sjkfjskdksjdkjksjdk I need to go talk be with her rn so she’s happy again” and basically that’s how you start dating. while you guys are dating it’s pretty much the same thing-- he loves listening to you talk and he loves more than anything that you’re comfortable around him.
Kevin:
you were at the library and you zoned out and you were staring all scarily in the same direction kevin was sitting in and he *that meme of the kid holding the cup and who keeps looking sideways at the camera* like he really thinks you’re gonna approach him about something he never did. so he goes over to you and he’s like “are you ok?” and you jerk out of your daydream to see this really cute guy looking at you worriedly and slightly scared and you’re like “ohhh ummm yeahhh why do you aks tho???” and you smile a little bc gosh he’s cute and he’s like “gosh she’s cute” and he’s like “oh nothin” and uses a cheesy pickup line to get your number and you start dating/ become bffs and he lowkey loves that you look so scary when you’re around other ppl but then open up like a flower in the sunshine with him and you and him laugh and talk like there’s no tomorrow whenever you’re together bc you’re both pretty talkative. y’all are inseparable! but like he picks up the habit of looking scary and avoiding eye contact with ppl bc of you and his friends are like “?????” but he doesn't even realize how much he’s been influenced by you. 
Chanhee:
he meets you through mutual friends and they warn him like “yeahhh she looks really scary around ppl she doesn’t know but be warned, she’s SUPER talkative once you get to know her” and chanhee’s like “scary around ppl you don’t know? a girl after my own heart” and so you immediately click like---yeahh bffs! you both look scary in public tbh, but when you’re alone you just talk and talk and he just listens with heart eyes bc he loves listening. and you always look so happy when you’re with him or your friends and he’s just like “ahhhhhhh she’s so cute!!!” even when you look like you want to murder someone out in public. you’ll both just glare at ppl together when out in public sometimes even though you’re happy together, just to annoy your friends lol. chanhee never judges you or forces you to talk with ppl when you’re feeling uncomfortable. he 100% understands and instead of saying things like “you should just tryyyy to talk to someone new!!!” he’d be like “what? you’re feeling uncomfortable? mmkay, let’s go...rn!” and y’all would leave-- doesn’t even matter where you were at.
Changmin:
would be like “??????” the first time you felt comfortable enough around him to open up. he thought your gloomy face and quiet personality was who you always were and he was starting to fall in love with that part of you when you burst open like the sunshine and just talked and laughed freely. and then you’re like “oh,,, i’m sorry. did i startle you?” and he’d be like *shocked pikachu face* “oh my goodness no! your laugh is ADORABLE!!!!” and then he’d constantly do things to make you smile and laugh and bring up topics he knew you could talk about for days bc he’s just so in love with you. every part of your personality is endearing to him. he’d tease you after you’d been dating for a while and he knew the limit to which he could tease you without going too far. he’d pretend not to know you and look all scared if he ”happened” to end up standing next to you and like jokingly make a “help me” face to his friends and then someone would notice and start to walk up to him to rescue him from the scary quiet girl and then he’d start laughing and hold your hand while you rolled your eyes.
Haknyeon:
confused. how could you be so different around strangers than when you were with him? even with your friends your social battery would run out soon. but when you were with him?? you had no limit to your energy and excitement and you showed your happiness so easily to him whereas with others you looked scared and skeptical even if you were happy. he worried about you a lot at the beginning of your relationship,,, like you’d be standing there zoning out, not talking to anyone, and he’d be like “gosh, is she ok???? did someone say something upsetting to her????? did she receive bad news????” and he’d rush over to you as soon as he could whenever he saw you starting to look abandoned and sad out in public. after dating for a while you learned to just constantly hang on to his arm bc he protected you from strangers trying to converse with you. when you two were alone you both talked a lot but you laughed even more, like you would have deep meaningful conversations and then just switch to telling the lamest jokes and rolling on the floor dying with laughter and then he’d just look at you while you were smiling and wiping away tears from laughing and he’d smile thinking he was the luckiest guy in the world to have you--- all to himself!
Sunwoo:
wouldn’t even be surprised the first time you hung out together and you really opened up. like he could tell there was a lot more to you than your quietness and rbf. when you first started dating some ppl that knew you both would be like “she looks scary af. what if she’s really boring and like,,, mean??” and he’d *cue the tongue in the cheek thing* “shut up”. once you two were dating for a while he would get so used to your talkative bright personality that when ppl are like “ohhh! you’re dating y/n! the really quiet girl?” he’d be like “who tf are you talking about! I’m dating y/n” and they’d be like *confusion*. he knows your quiet personality in public is a part of who you are and he respects that, but like he doesn’t really even remember that part of you, bc most of your time together is spent alone and he knows that’s when you’re most comfortable and your true self. absolutely HATES when ppl misunderstand you and then hold that against you. you don’t really care but he gets really protective over you.
Eric:
would think it was SO cute! he would coo and tease you gently when you were in public together making you crack a smile. when you started dating and he saw that you matched his energy he would be ecstatic! like he could not wait until you were home and in your comfort zone so you could be crazy together and laugh and talk for hours. sometimes in public old ladies would be like “deary,, you must remember to smile sometimes for your pretty bf here” and Eric would be like “????” “she does, but only when we’re alone” and then he would like flirtatiously smile at you causing you to blush and causing the old lady to feel kinda uncomfortable (as she should) literally does not phase him at all that you’re so different around strangers. like he doesn’t understand it, but he doesn’t think it’s weird either. if you’re standing there like “ughhh i hate ppl” written all over your face you’ll just smile to himself bc yeahh he just thinks it’s cute that you’re that way (idek) and then when someone tries to talk with you and he’s around he’ll swoop over and be like “hi. I’m her bf and spokesperson, how can I help”

Worthwhile (Crosshair X F!Reader)
My first one shot for The Bad Batch; It's Crosshair! Enjoy~
Summary: Spending the early morning with Crosshair in bed. You want to go back to sleep, but Crosshair has other plans.
Word Count: 1108
Warning: Suggestive themes, It's gonna get HOT!
Tumblr media
The sound of pounding rain against the skylight awoken (Y/N) from her peaceful sleep as she slowly opened her eyes. The room darkened both from the blackout curtains and the stormy weather outside the bedroom windows. It only became bright for a couple of seconds when the lightning illuminated the two secret lovers laying on the bed.
(Y/N) felt her lover's lean arm hold onto her tighter, as he too was reluctantly awoken by the storm. He buried his face into her neck as she smiled wide and reached up with her hand to run her fingers through his grey hair.
“Crosshair” (Y/N) whispered as he started to leave lingering kisses along her neck.
He mumbled a couple of incoherent words before she heard him ask, “What time is it cyar’ika?”
(Y/N) glanced over at the alarm clock on her dresser reading 0655. “It’s almost 0700,” She whispered back as his other arm wrapped around her waist and placed his hand on her heart. “Your brothers will be here in 3 hours. I’ll have to get up soon to make breakfast for everyone”
Crosshair hummed in reply and nipped at (Y/N)’s ear. “I think we’ve got time for some more rounds.” He drawled and kissed her cheek, then her forehead as his hands started to wonder.
“Sweetheart,” (Y/N) grinned as she felt another kiss on her forehead while lifting his wandering hand from below her into her grasp, kissing his hand. “You just got back from the Anaxes, you need sleep!”
(Y/N) turned her full body to look at him and was about to counter protest when he swooped in and pulled her even closer to his chest, her breath leaving her body as he captured her lips in a hot searing kiss. She moaned softly and wrapped her arms around his neck as his hands squeezed her hips. They both fought each other in giving the most desperate open kisses they could give to the other. Crosshair bit her lip, and (Y/N) gasped in shock as the slightly pleasurable pain made her body shudder. His tongue snuck in and they fought for dominance, but only for a short period of time. She rolled her eyes as he won the fight and cupped her face. They both broke apart for air.
“I’m still sore from last night.” (Y/N) finally confessed as her face flushed from embarrassment.
Crosshair gave a cocky smirk as he rested his head on his hand looking at her. Relishing in the way she was flustered and becoming shy. “Who’s fault was it last night when you wore that favorite bodysuit I like?”
(Y/N)’s face bloomed darker. “I was missing you!” She smacked his chest playfully as he chuckled at her reddening face. “How was I supposed to know you were coming home last night?”
Crosshair smiled as he placed a kiss on top of (Y/N)’s head as she hid her face in his chest.
“I suppose I can give you a break.”
“Thank you dear.” (Y/N) whispered as they both closed their eyes, enjoying the moment they had together. She savored the feeling of Crosshair’s hands wrapped around her hips, while she brought her hands up and started massaging the back of Crosshair's head.
(Y/N) was in absolute bliss. The pounding of the rain on the skylight, the warmth from Crosshairs soft hands, and the movement of Crosshair's chest moving from his soft breathing. Her eyes started to get heavy as sleep was about to consume her once more, wanting to just let go and let the darkness and Crosshairs embrace take her away. From the war, the army, the politics, everything.
(Y/N) felt one of Crosshair's hands leave her hip, maybe to roll over and hook his hands behind his head to look up at the skylight. He usually did that, and she would-
*SMACK!*
(Y/N)’s eyes snapped wide open in horror, shocked from the possible red handprint she would have on her butt. Crosshair chuckled darkly as he smoothed his hand over the cheek he just slapped. Her eyes narrowed as she gave him the most menacing glare she could muster. “Really Crosshair, really?”
“Oops.” Crosshair never opened his eyes as he was still grinning like the smooth man he was. He opened his eyes and (Y/N) could feel the atmosphere strain with desire as his eyes burned with lust. “C’mon, you know you love it when I smack your ass.”
(Y/N) avoided the subject and rolled over while giving a snort as she scooted to the edge of the bed. “I thought we just agreed to go back to sleep?” She chided.
Crosshair moved over onto her side pursuing his little prey. Leaning over and whispering, “I never agreed to anything cyar’ika,” He sat up against the headboard and scooped her up to lay her against his chest, having her sit in between his legs. “C’mon ik’aad, give me 5 minutes. I’ll make it worthwhile.”
(Y/N) raised her eyebrow in bewilderment. “You-you really think you can,” She had to take a pause to remind herself to breathe as he started to kiss behind her ear, his hands making purchase on her hips once more. “You really think you can make me come undone in 5 minutes?”
He quickly let go of her hips, one hand grasping her chin and the other hand clenched in her hair. “Is that a challenge?” He asked as his eyes bored into hers, leading her into his trap.
She stared owlishly at him as she pondered aloud and took pleasure in the tight grip he had in her hair. “No, more like debate really because I don’t think that’s even humanly possible.”
Crosshair’s grasp loosened as he threw on his signature smirk and leaned down to her eye. “Let me prove it to you.” He whispered as his eyes landed on her soft lips, wanting nothing more than to bruise them.
He leaned down and hovered just slightly above her lips. “I suppose I could.” (Y/N) sheepishly agreed as she too couldn’t deny wanting to kiss him again. His lips brushed hers, softly, delicately, like carrier butterfly wings, just long enough that she could inhale his breath, feel the warmth of his skin, and the taste of him. She sighed dreamily as she pulled away from the breathtaking kiss. “I really did miss you, Crosshair.”
Crosshair grinned as he rested his forehead against hers, and dragged out the words he knew would capture her always. “How touching.”
Nope.
(Y/N) was officially ruined.
AHHHHHHH!!! I can't believe I WROTE THAT!!!! I'm like hardcore trying not to squeal so loud!!! Let me know what you guys think! Remember Bad Batch request are open!

past lives | 10
a/n: final part!! AHHHHHHH stay tuned for the epilogue!!! And thank you guys so much for coming on this journey with me. I really appreciate it and YOU! <3
You awoke to the smell of cement and dry wall. It smelled so bad you could feel it in your throat. Your eyes cleared up to the spectacle in front of you. It was Ra's and Nyssa with their arms crossed.
“Is this some sick parent teacher conference?” you joked.
“No games. You failed to deliver the package.” he said.
“You mean your grandson? The one who left of his own volition?”
“Nonsense he is the heir to everything I have. He can’t leave.”
You looked over more to your former friend, “Nice to see you too Nyssa.”
“Why didn’t you stick to the plan?” she asked.
You look at Ra’s and he’s already staring you down. You don’t think he’s told her. It would have been best not to. Withholding information is his favorite skill anyways.
You’re about to say something when Ra’s comes over and backhands you. It makes you curl in the chair they’ve put you in. You weren’t surprised, that didn’t make it any less worse however. 
He really doesn’t want her to know.
“All you had to do was seek him out. You couldn’t even do it.” 
His smack- you hate to say it- brought up a thought to the front of your mind. 
“When did you know about my father?” you asked.
It’s in words that Nyssa isn’t able to pick up on. You know. He knows. It’s clear he doesn’t want her to know. Another hint at telling her might earn you worse than a slap.
“After you came out of the pit. I looked into your identity some more and did some research.” he said.
“Tell me,” you move your arms bound to the back of the chair, “Did you spawn Damian afterwards because of me?”
“No, you’re not the reason. I had already been watching him for some time. You were just a happy coincidence.” he answered.
Ra's folds his hands behind his back and moves around Nyssa, and then around you. In a circle. The predator and the prey. What was Nyssa this time around?
“You never reached out.” you said directly to her.
“You left.” she shot back.
“He wanted me gone.” you nodded to her father.
“It was a test you imbecile!” she shouted.
It made you flinch. You realized that maybe Nyssa wasn’t going to let bygones be bygones. And from her stand point she didn’t have to. You hurt her. 
Ra’s circles around you once more. His eyes never left Nyssa though. It gave you a sickening feeling. How everyone was his pawns. Specifically Talia and Nyssa. The women in that family needed serious counseling after being brought up by a man like that.
“If it was a test then why did he let me live? The moment I stepped out the door I should have been dead!” you shouted back.
She stayed silent. So you continued.
“He’s lying to you Nyssa.” you said.
“She’s right I lied to you. It wasn’t part of some test.”
Nyssa turned to her father in shock. You were sat wondering why he would give himself up so easily. What did he have to play here?
Whatever it was could wait. He was far enough now to not strike you again. You needed to let her know.
“He wanted me as a back up for Damian. My half-brother.” you said.
Nyssa turned back to you and when she did Ra's smacked her too. You winced for her, his hand print would probably be on your face in a few minutes. Just like old times.
He turned to you.
“You ruined my plan to bring my grandson back. Now he knows I’m here.” he said.
“He ran away for good reason. I’m glad he did. I would've never handed him over to you anyways.” you spoke.
“You didn’t have to hand him to me, you were just going to serve him to me on a platter.”
“No. Because I know you were tracking me through my phone, both of them. You think I didn’t notice how heavy that flash drive is? I know a cloning device when I hold one. And the burner phone? That was cheap work.” 
He began to laugh. It made you sit further back in your seat. Him laughing was never a good sign. And it never sounded right. All those years in the pit must’ve done something to his laugh, along with the rest of his mind.
Ra's al Ghul came face to face with you. He wasn’t a pleasant man to look at. His breath even more telling on how close to death he is. But you looked him in the eye anyways.
“And that’s why you’re here. The bargaining chip. He’ll come for you, because just as you care for him he cares for you.”
He lets up and in the background you saw Nyssa shift her arm really quickly. You don’t know what it was for. 
-
The family had gotten a hit on your location. It had been four hours since you were taken. Everyone decided to suit up and hit the streets for the first two hours. Redhood and Red Robin took downtown, Nightwing enlisted the help of GCPD to search Midtown and Batman and Robin took Uptown. With the league they couldn’t be too careful.
In the middle of searching is when they got a comms message from Alfred. Your phone had pinged off a tower in Crime Alley. As Bruce and Damian were closest they began to head over to that neighborhood. The rest of the boys and some footmen from the GCPD were on their way over.
Batman and Robin got there and Alfred was able to narrow down the closest tower that your phone pinged off of. 
In the bat mobile Damian remained quiet. He had kept mum about the real reason you were there with him when Gotham Academy had caught on fire. Bruce could tell it was something he wanted to speak about alone.
“So what's the real reason?” 
Damian let out a sigh, “This isn’t our first meeting. We’ve had a relationship since I was born. Back on the island.”
“With the league?”
“Yes. It was sad when we could no longer see each other, grandfather had offered an out. I never thought we would see each other again.”
Bruce stayed quiet for a moment. All that could be heard was the engine of the batmobile. 
“Did you know you were related?”
“I found that out the same day as Gotham Academy. We had a conversation later that night.”
“You snuck out?” 
“I had to father. It was for good reason. We were able to put the pieces together. I said I would handle grandfather.” 
“Damian.”
“This has gone on for too long. It’s my fault. If something happens-”
“We’ll make it.”
Then he steps more on the gas.
Your head lulled forward after the sixth blow he dealt you. It wasn’t like you earned it. He wanted to prove a point to Nyssa. That you were expendable to him. That in the grand scheme of things you didn’t matter.
“All that training, wasted! You can’t even get out of the restraints.” 
You swallowed the blood that was in your mouth, “What makes you think he’ll come for me?”
“We’re going to send a public ransom across all of Gotham. I figure a hundred thousand as the bounty will circulate enough to get to him. And then he’ll come and find you.”
“He’s just a child.”
“No he’s more than a child. He’s my grandson, the son of Bruce Wayne and Talia al Ghul.”
“And what does she think about all this?” 
“Enough!” he shouted.
You were punched again. 
“I’ll get someone to send the ransom around.” Nyssa’s voice said.
You lifted your head up to look at her but her back was already turned to you. This however did earn you another punch, to the gut this time, by Ra’s. You let out a disgusting sound at the impact.
“Instead of a coincidence you’ve become an inconvenience. This time I won’t put you in the pit.” 
“Why would you ever put me in there in the first place, huh? I was a no one! You  didn’t know me or my mother. You just snatched my body and made me one of your foot soldiers.” you screamed through the incoming headache.
He did that mechanical laugh again and you wanted to spit at him. You never thought he was a good man. All the things he did. The things he told you to do. You can’t absolve all of the blame but he was an undeniable reason why you did those things.
Drop offs turned into stake outs. Stake outs into undercover. Undercover into sedation. With him the lines were blurred, because there was supposed to be nothing you wouldn’t do for him. But you chose Damian. Or, you chose Damian’s new life over his old one. And he didn't like that one bit.
The door bused open and in came Batman. You didn't think you'd live to see him up close. It’s true that while in Gotham you would probably see him once or twice. But this?
You watched as Ra's attacked him on sight. It was like the two were in sync. Batman hit, Ra’s dodged. A kick here, a swerve there. They seemed to be equals. You know you could never pull that off. Ra’s would have you flat out in under a minute.
When Batman should have swerved he didn’t. And Ra’s got the best of him with a punch. This gave way to a kick to the side and a head pull into the ground. You struggled to get out of your restraints. It wasn’t looking good for either of you.
Ra’s picked him up, and you watched in horror as he hurled him toward you. Batman collided with you so hard that he broke the chair you were in. It sent you back into one of the many crates in the room.
Batman groaned as you lifted him off of you. You slid over to the side on the floor. He was definitely not light. He knocked the only wind out of you that remained after Ra’s punishment.
No more chair meant your hands were free.
You pulled your arms around to the front. You could try to take him like this. Even though you could hear him laughing in the foreground. 
“Here.” 
You looked over at Batman. He was holding out one of his knives, shaped like a bat. You took it without passing a comment on it. You passed the blade over the restraints and made quick work of them.
On your feet, the laughter stops. You inched closer and closer to him.
“I didn’t snatch your body, your mother handed you over when she found out you were murdered. She asked me for this!” he said.
You stopped. 
“What are you talking about?” 
“When you died she went to a very dark place. With how dark she got it didn’t take long for her to find one of my associates and get in contact with me. She begged for you to be brought back. Her child!”
