Together or Nothing

Pairing: Vettel-Reader x Carlos Sainz Jr. Genre: Angst/Comfort Summary: Growing up with Carlos, you knew he’d be a special driver. If he asked you to follow him to the end of the world, you’d do it. But when his life in Formula 1 is in jeopardy, how far are you willing to go?

uhhhhhhh - I was inspired and I made an imagine after the complete clown show that was last tuesday. This is an apology imagine because this week is stacked and there might not be a TDITD update in the near future. So I'm feeding you all now. Never thought that my first imagine would be fore Carlos but here we are.

You had heard the rumors. But that’s what they were supposed to be. Just rumors.

Your dad had warned you that something big was going to be announced, but you never thought it would be this.

Well, some rumors can turn out to be true. Your mind was swirling with thoughts as you looked at your screen. Photoshopped pictures of Lewis in red was all that you saw. Conformations, hot-takes, and edits began to follow. People praised the prancing horse for securing the 7-time world champion. Podcast hosts immediately took to talking about how Lewis would be the best teammate for Charles. Everyone seemed honed in on the two drivers.

Yet, all you could think about was Carlos.

Carlos who had given his all to the Rosso Corsa team.

Carlos who was the only non-Red Bull winner in 2023.

Carlos who bled the Ferrari red, even sometimes more than their Il Predestinato.

Carlos who was slowly becoming forgotten in a matter of minutes.

Your heart ached for your friend as you read his short and blunt statement on his Instagram story. You could almost feel the sadness through the minimal words.

Your fingers flew to your messages as you messaged Charles. The Monegasque had known for a while, but had tried to get the Spaniard another contract. He knew that Carlos was one of the better drivers on the grid and disagreed with Ferrari’s decision.

You knew that Charles had so much respect for Lewis. Hell, everyone did. You don’t just equal Michael Schumacher’s championships every day. No one has even come close to it. Yes, Max was well on his way, but nothing was ever certain in the world of Formula 1.

Charles even complained about how he might not be number 2 driver in a team that didn’t believe in “driver priority.” Years of experience and 7 World Champions would definitely give someone the upper hand.

Swiping out of the messages with Chares, you brought up Carlos’s contact.

Your finger hovered over the message icon and then switched to call, then back to messages before you swiped out of his contact completely.

You fingers went to a different contact. You knew it was a hard decision, and it would take a lot of convincing, but you were determined.

Strict words were flown between you and your father. Having ties with a specific car manufacturer got you places, but this was in the wind. No one had asked for something this big – except you.

After the begging and borderline crying, you ended the call. Exhaustion was creeping up on you, but you had more things to do.

Once again, you clicked on Charles’s profile and pressed the call button.

“Hello y/n,” Charles’s voice echoed through the speaker.

You sighed. “How is he?”

Charles mirrored your initial sound. “He won’t pick up. I’ve tried texting, but he’s leaving me on read.”

You nibbled on your lips. “Have you called Lando?”

“He’s on his way here. He was in Woking for the suit fitting and debut.”

You let out a sigh of relief.

“Can you send me his flight info if you have it? When he gets in, I’ll pick you up, then him. We can all three go see…”

“I don’t think that’s a good idea.”

An annoyed sound left your lips as you raised your voice. “Charles, be for real. If we’re honest, he bleeds red more than you do. He needs us. Needs his friends.”

There was silence for a bit, until Charles spoke up.

“You’re right. I’m sorry. Sending you the information now.”

With a couple more thank-you’s and apologies, you hung up.

Lando was supposed to land later that evening and everything was in place.

A couple of hours later, Lando was in the back seat of your car with Charles in the passenger. The three of you sat in silence as you drove to Carlos’s place in Monaco. Lando was the first to speak up.

“So what’s the plan. I know you Y/n and if you haven’t made a call yet somewhere then you’re have no plan and this is just pointless.”

You rolled your eyes as Charles stared at you, waiting for some good news.

“I made a call to dad. He says he’ll get the ball rolling. We’ll know by tomorrow if they go ahead with it.”

Charles leaned in and adjusted himself in the seat. “And who is they?”

You hushed him. “A girl never spoils her secrets.”

Not long after, your car finally made it to his place. The lights were on, which was a good sign.

Carlos was home.

You swallowed thickly as you made your way up the stairs. Your hand lifted and knocked on the door. Charles and Lando were right behind you.

It took a couple of minutes for Carlos to open the door, but he eventually did. The sight was almost unbearable.

His normally kept hair was sticking up in different places. His cheeks were red, along with his nose.

He had been crying no doubt.

He looked tired as he slouched at the door, but straightened up when his eyes landed on you. They held a certain softness as he gazed at your face. But the softness hardened at the sight of the other two drivers. He opened his mouth to talk, but you raised a hand.

“They’re here for you Carlos. Please listen,” you pleaded, hand now resting on his chest. He looked down and then nodded, moving to let them in.

The three of you followed him in. You were half expecting things to be thrown everywhere and broken. Yet, the house seemed to be in perfect shape. He led you to the living room and sat on a chair.

You, Lando, and Charles all squeezed onto the couch in front.

A comment about school children and their principal wanted to leave your lips, but you held it back.

The Spaniard sat in silence as he waited for someone to talk first.

Charles inhaled sharply. His voice cracked the first time he tried to say something, but he persisted.

“I didn’t want it to be like this.”

When Charles finally looked up, Carlos could see the tears in the Monegasque’s eyes.

“I tried,” he swallowed, “I tried to get them to keep you on. Even tried to have them do an open ended contract like mine.”

Carlos spoke up. “Yet, you have said that you’d want Lewis as a teammate.”

Charles looked down again, almost ashamed.

“I half-handedly said that, and you know it. If you were asked you probably wouldn’t have said my name either.”

Carlos looked down at his hands. Charles was right.

He got up from the couch and crouched in front of Carlos, so they could be on eye level. Charles put his hand on Carlos’s shoulder.

“Together or nothing, right?”

Carlos nodded silently as he brought the brunet into a hug. The two men shed some tears as they hugged.

You knew how hard it was going to be on the Spaniard.

He often said that his one downfall was to love and love too quickly.

Lando was truly his first favorite teammate with Charles coming at a close second. He got too attached in a sport that was famous for their driver swaps.

Moving from McLaren to Ferrari had almost crushed his and Lando’s friendship. It took them months to be able to hang out without sadness hovering over their heads.

Now, Carlos was determined to not let that happen to him and Charles. Lando also wouldn’t let it happen, and neither were you.

The three of you stayed for a little longer, with you being invited to stay the night. Your hand was pushing against Lando’s face as he made kissy noises as he walked out the door. Your keys had been given to Charles with the promise that he’d keep your car safe.

That night, you held Carlos as he cried and cried. And when you thought he was done, he’d cry some more. You ended up not telling him about your plan, simply because you didn’t want to get his hopes up.

Yes, in the morning, you were being shaken awake by the Spaniard. His phone was shoved right in your face.

“Is this real?” he questioned, voice cracking with emotion.

There on his phone was the official announcement.

“PORSCHE OUTBIDS AUDI FOR THE 2026 SPOT IN FORMULA 1”

“EX-DRIVER SEBASTIAN VETTEL TO BE PORSCHE’S TEAM PRINCIPAL IN 2026”

“Y/N VETTEL TO BE RACE ENGINEER FOR NUMBER ONE DRIVER IN 2026”

“PORSCHE SECURED NUMBER ONE SEAT AND CONTRACT FOR SAINZ JR 2026”

The large headlines were giving you a headache, so you simply smiled and closed your eyes.

“Surprise,” you said, sing-singly and sleepy.

Carlos just looked at you and you could feel his eyes on your figure. You peaked out at him before sighing, tugging the comforter down as you sat up.

“If you don’t want it…”

“I want it.”

You shivered at the bluntness in his voice.

He looked from you, down to his phone, then back to you. “You did this?”

You nodded shyly as you leaned in closer.

“I know you and Charles have your own ‘together or nothing,’ but I’d follow you to the ends of the earth if it were possible Carlos.”

You waited for him to say something. Yet, he never did. He did something better though.

He kissed you.

“Together or nothing, mi Corazón.”

Queen [E. M]

Eddie Munson x fem!reader

word count: 1.7k

summary: Eddie hates the sudden crush you're having for a celebrity and when you find out why it turns out to be the cutest thing in the world

A/N: okay I have to confess that this one shot it's pure self-indulgence because I have been so obsessed with Queen lately

I liked them a lot when I was a teenager and I think this love had only been dormant in me, lmao

Anyways this is short but I hope you like it!

Eddie walked around the cafeteria, looking around at you. When he found you, you were holding a magazine in your hands and as he walked towards you, he swore he heard a sigh of love.

"Hey, girl," he exclaimed as he plopped down next to you, watching you jump startled.

“Hi,” you said excitedly, as you closed the magazine and put it aside. Eddie took the opportunity to glance sideways and he couldn't contain an annoyed groan when he saw the cover. It had Queen, the group you've been obsessed with lately.

"Seeing that band again?"

"Yes!" you replied, not noticing the annoyed tone your friend had used "I found this magazine at Mitch's stand near my house, can you believe it?" you exclaimed, as you opened it to a certain page. Eddie rolled his eyes when he saw the photograph on it.

"That blond again?"

Roger Taylor.

Eddie vaguely knew the group, he had seen them on television and he didn't dislike them, he could even say that he liked some songs. But now it was different, because your fascination was directly proportional to the hatred he had for them. He didn't even have a valid reason, he just felt extremely angry that you liked them so much. It was difficult to understand and much more difficult to explain. But of all, the one he hated the most was Roger.

“He's not just a blonde, he's the most handsome man on earth. Just look at it!” you screeched, showing him the photo. "I'm in something like a fan club and they just sent me these pictures of them in Brazil, look at them," you continued, handing him three small polaroids. There were two groups and one with just the bassist and drummer “He looks so handsome in white. And he just looks at her hair and her smile and her eyes…”

"Isn't this guy like 40 years old?"

“36!” you corrected him, completely offended.

"Which means he could be your father."

"And what does that matter?" you insisted “If he were here right now, I would let him do with me what he wanted”

“Y/N!” Eddie exclaimed, suddenly modest, but you giggled.

“I could literally melt from how hot he is, have you seen him as a young man? With that long hair that looks so soft. I swear I could…”

"Hello!" Dustin greeted, arriving just in time to prevent you from saying another obscenity out loud. Eddie felt completely ashamed of your thoughts. Sure he knew what sex was and he had a couple of dirty magazines in his bedroom, but it felt so weird to hear you saying those things.

The matter faded as lunch progressed, but he still felt strange looking at the magazine and photos lying next to you, a feeling he tried to ignore.

The days passed, then the weeks, and Eddie felt calmer when you hardly even talked about the rock band. Only an occasional mention or when you took off your headphones and because of the volume so high he managed to hear a little of one of their songs.

Until one day he was waiting for you outside your house to go for a walk and you approached with the biggest smile you've ever had. Eddie thought you were excited to see him until he saw a cassette in your hand and he was oddly disappointed.

"Check out what I just bought!" you exclaimed euphorically, without even greeting him, while you showed him the little plastic box that had The Works written on it accompanied by an image of four men "I'm going to put it on your stereo"

“Hello to you too, how are you? I'm fine, thanks for asking,” he said wryly, but you just laughed softly. The first song started playing when Eddie was already driving down the street; It was something disco.

"Oh, this song was written by Roger," you told him excitedly. It was catchy and good, but Eddie wasn't going to admit it and decided to say something impolite instead.

"Didn't he also write a super weird fuck-a-car song?"

"What? Nope!" you laughed "It's called I'm in love with my car and it's like, huh, a metaphor"

"I repeat, it's weird and that guy is weird too," he snorted, but you didn't register his angry tone because you were too busy nodding your head to the beat of the music.

You had decided that you would go for ice cream and so you did. For most of the afternoon you were talking and talking, while Eddie just ate his ice cream and answered in monosyllables. You thought it was just a passing thing but he kept silent even on the way to your house, which if he was out of the ordinary.

"Why are you so quiet, Ed?" you asked, genuinely interested.

“It's nothing” he lied, even though you knew it wasn't. He reached for you and you thought he would hug you, but instead he opened the glove compartment and pulled out a cassette which he reluctantly tossed into your lap. “I recorded that song for you. I hope you still want to hear that kind of stuff now that you're a Queen fan,” he muttered without much encouragement. But you smiled when you realized what was happening.

“Is this why you are mad? Is it because I like Queen now?”

"I'm not mad," he defended himself, but his crossed arms and the pout on his lips said something else.

When you looked more closely at the cassette you realized that it was covered in purple foil and had both your name and his written in that boy's ragged handwriting.

So in a second everything seemed to click and you understood why Eddie was upset every time you listened to the band or talked about your crush. He wasn't angry, he was jealous.

"God, it can't be, are you worried that I'll stop listening to your music because I like Queen?" you said, trying not to sound mocking, but with a smile you couldn't hide.

"Again I don't know what you're talking about, please go now, it's late and your parents are going to be angry"

"Ed, you can't be serious," you insisted. The whole thing was so silly "Or is it that you're mad because I like Roger?"

“I already told you it's nothing! OK?" he muttered. He really looked upset and you felt bad for a moment, until you heard him speak again “I don't even understand what you see in that guy. He just plays drums and he's white, it's not a big deal” he said grumbling “And lately you just talk and talk about him and how handsome he is and all that shit and he's like 20 years older than you!”

If it had been someone else, you probably would have laughed and told him to go to hell. But it turns out that the one who was sick with jealousy at your crush on a rockstar was your best friend, the same guy who was trying to be a rockstar himself and didn't want to share the job with anyone else. That's why you found the whole thing totally cute.

“Eddie, what the hell are you talking about? I like him, yes, but it's not like he's my next-door neighbor to run away with. He's thousands of miles away from here because he's a fucking Brit who has a huge bunch of fans just like me. And besides, he's married and has kids,” you laughed, punctuating this last part.

And suddenly Eddie felt so dumb. He was being an idiot being jealous of someone you didn't even know and wouldn't know anytime soon and all because he had a bit of a crush on you and hated it when someone else stole your attention. He wanted you at band rehearsals, hearing and complimenting their songs, but that need for attention had gone too far. So he continued to fold his arms and fled from your gaze, but this time out of sheer embarrassment.

"Eddie, could you at least look at me?" said. You were very persistent and he knew it, so he had no choice but to turn to see you. You weren't the least bit upset, on the contrary, you looked the most amused "Does that calm your jealousy a bit?"

"I'm not jealous" he spat, as if you had just done him the worst offense in the world, but you kept talking with that smile on your face.

“Well, in case you were jealous, I have to tell you that you have nothing to worry about. I prefer guitarists, before drummers”

"Really?" he asked, oddly hopeful, but still feeling like an idiot.

"Of course! There is one in particular with very nice curls and brown eyes” you exclaimed. Eddie let go of that angry frown and smiled at this, almost blushing, “His name is Brian May, do you know him? He is part of the band Queen”

"Okay, now get out of the car and go home," he said suddenly, returning to that frown that made you laugh out loud.

"I'm kidding! Obviously I mean you” you exclaimed, approaching him and putting one of your hands on his arm to ease the tension “Corroded coffin will always be my favorite band and I'll be at every concert. And you will always be my favorite musician, I promise you,” you said sweetly, as you closed the distance further and hugged him. That's when he relented and wrapped both hands around you as he breathed in the scent of your hair. Even though it was already clear that it was nonsense, he felt calmer now “What do you say we listen to that song together, huh? I want to know what my pretty boy wrote,” you continued. Eddie wanted to die because you had called him yours and pretty in the same sentence.

Without waiting for an answer you took the cassette and placed it delicately in the player, still with your body leaning against his to assure him that you were serious.

TAG LIST: @sweetdayme4427 @smol-book-nerd @ilikewomendealwithit @harringt8ns @katsukis1wife @ilovereadingfanfics @tvserie-s-world

It wasn't metal, it was just Eddie playing the acoustic guitar from his room as he sang in a soft, husky voice. The song spoke of friendship, love, and joy. From a person who was lucky to have another and didn't want to lose them. As the words echoed through the car, your head rested on the boy's chest, and your arm wrapped around his body, a tender smile spread across your face. And so you stayed for a long time, just enjoying the warmth and affection that Eddie emanated.

Tinder

Yandere Taehyung x Reader

Part 1 Part 2

Summary: When your best friend creates an account on Tinder account for you....

Warnings: yandere Taehyung, stalking, obsessive behaviour, horror themes, major character death, minor character death, tae is kinda creepy here

A/N: Again originally from my Wattpad account. I hope you like it and if you did please leave a like.

Masterlist

____________________________________________

"You did what?"

"Chill Y/N, just calm down."

"How can you tell me to calm down when you made a profile on tinder for me without asking my permission."

Your best friend Rose sighed.

"This was the only way left. I set you up on numerous dates but you refused and even so many boys proposed to you and you rejected."

She exclaimed.

"Y/N you are 24 already and now you need to spice up your love life. I am your best friend and I care about you."

You let her words sink in your mind. She is right. When was the last time you were in a relationship? If you remember correctly it was almost six years ago. What was the boy's name? You couldn't even remember that because the relationship only lasted for a week. After that you had never been in a relationship. Though you went out on a few days but it didn't work out. All you want is a long term relationship but all the boys you went out on a date just wanted hookups.

"I get it"

You exclaimed, a smile appeared on her face.

"Y/N at least give it a try. I'm sure you may get a perfect match for you here."

"Ok I am re.."

You got interrupted by the sound of beeping of your phone. Rose quickly picked it up and checked the notification. A huge smile made its way on her face.

"Y/N you won't believe what happened?"

She started to jump in happiness. You were very curious to know what happened that made your bestie go crazy.

"Rose stop, now tell me what happened?"

She sat down on the couch beside me.

"Y/N they found a perfect match for you."

"Really?"

"Yes, wait let me check his profile."

You don't why she is so over excited for finding a boyfriend for you when she, herself has never been in a relationship.

"Ahhh...ohhh Y/N look"

She yelled your eardrum was almost about to blast. She then showed you a picture of a man, who was supposedly your match.

You don't want to say but he is so damn handsome.

"Y/N isn't he handsome?"

Rose said busy admiring his picture.

"He is but..not that much."

"Y/N are you blind? How can you say he is not that handsome? When he is the most good looking person I've ever seen in my life."

She again shouted. You are sure that one day she will make you deaf.

"You can't trust people online what if the picture is edited. Moreover my baby brother Jungkookie is more handsome."

"That rabbit.."

"Dare you say something about my brother."

You threatened her that got you both laughing. Then you heard the popping of notification on your phone. Rose checked it and her eyes widened seeing whatever she saw.

"Y/N look Mr. Handsome text you."

She handed you the phone and got up the couch.

"Bye Y/N I need to go my girlfriend must be waiting for me."

With that she hurriedly left your apartment and closed the door behind.

Wait girlfriend, that means she is-

Once again the sound of beeping of your phone grabbed your attention. You checked it and found another message from Mr. Handsome.

____________________________________________

VANTAE: Hello!

VANTAE: I'm Taehyung, Kim Taehyung.

You: I'm Y/N, Jeon Y/N.

VANTAE: I already know that.

You: But how?

VANTAE: From your profile, silly.

You: Oh yeah.

You: I'm so stupid.

VANTAE: No problem.

VANTAE: I was wondering if we could be friends and get to know each other?

You: Yeah offcourse, why not?

VANTAE: So we are friends from now on.

You: Yep

____________________________________________

Unknowingly a smile appeared on your face. You don't even know him and text him a few minutes ago but you don't know why are you feeling so comfortable with him. You got so happy when he asked you to be his friend instead of asking something weird.

There are few men like him in this world today but you are glad there are. If he is good to you throughout you are planning to meet him for real. And if he is not faking anything and is interested in you. You are ready to give this relationship a chance.

____________________________________________

Time Skip:

A month passed and you and Taehyung have been really good friends by now. You both shared all your interest with each other through text. You also got to know that he is a photographer and is currently twenty-six years old.

Only two years older than me.

He texts you early in the morning wishing you good morning. In the evening asking how your day went and in the night wishing you good night.

This small gestures made him really sweet in your eyes. You just hope he is not faking his personality because if you get to know he is you will be heartbroken. Your trust in good men still exists in the world would go away.

You told about everything to Rose and she is really happy for you. You even thanked her because due to her you met Taehyung.

Another important thing that happened in my life in this one month was Namjoon. Almost three weeks ago he joined our company and he is my colleague now. At first when you saw him he seemed cold and serious but as you got to know him you really liked him.

He was so good to be true. He was the second good thing that happened to you in this month. He was so kind and helping. He even would casually drop you your home. In this few weeks you two got really close. You are glad that both he and Taehyung came into your life.

____________________________________________

"Hi Y/N!"

You heard the beaming voice of Namjoon. You looked up and found Namjoon standing right in front of your with a huge smile on his face.

"Hi Namjoon"

You said returning a smile to him. You heard the pop sound of the phone. You checked it and it was a message from Taehyung. You got busy replying him and completely forgot about Namjoon standing there.

"Whom are you texting?"

"Just a friend of mine."

You replied without looking at Namjoon being busy in your phone.

"Rose right?"

"No he is a friend I met online."

"Can I know his name?"

You don't know why Namjoon is inquiring so much about it.

"If you don't mind.... obviously."

"Why would I mind? His name is Taehyung, Kim Taehyung."

As Taehyung's name left your mouth a sad expression took over Namjoon's face. This is the first time seeing him like this.

"What happened Joonie?"

"Actually I had a younger brother, his name was Taehyung too but he passed away almost two years ago in a road accident."

"I'm sorry to hear that."

"It's okay I'm over it now. Anyway I should start my work otherwise our boss will fire me."

With that he left from there. You had no idea that Namjoon had a younger brother who passed away. He only mentioned about having a elder brother named Seokjin before.

____________________________________________

Time Skip:

Today Namjoon asked you out on a date and you agreed to it. Almost two months passed and now you have developed a small crush on Namjoon because he has been always good to you.

You told about this to Rose and she was happy for you. She told to do what your heart says and right now you want to give your and Namjoon's relationship a chance. You are so lucky to have such a supportive best friend.

About Taehyung it's the same, you both are very good friends. You always text each other but it seems like he is not interested in you and wants you to remain just friends. You have no problem with that because of have Namjoon now.

After you came back from work you got a message from Taehyung. You ignored it as you need to get ready for your date. You don't think he will mind. After getting ready you decided to reply Taehyung because Namjoon is still not here to pick you up.

____________________________________________

VANTAE: How was your day Y/N?

You: Mine was good. Wbu?

VANTAE: Mine was good too.

VANTAE:Can we chat now?

You: Tae I'm sorry but I can't chat with you today because I have to go out with a friend of mine. I hope you don't mind.

VANTAE: No worries. We can chat later.

You: Thanks for understanding.

____________________________________________

You didn't say him about the date because he doesn't need to know your personal life as you don't know about his personal life. Moreover he is still a friend you met online and it doesn't matter how good friends you both are you can't trust him totally.

It was almost half an hour but still there was no sign of Namjoon. Did he ditch you after asking you to go on a date with him? No, no, you should not think negative he must be here any moment. Your train of thought got interrupted by the pop sound on your phone. It was a message from Taehyung.

____________________________________________

VANTAE: Btw you look good in that black dress.

____________________________________________

You dropped your phone from your hand. How did he know that you are wearing a black dress. Is he a stalker or something? No maybe it's just a coincidence. You picked up your phone and text him back.

___________________________________________

You: How did you know that I'm wearing a black dress?

VANTAE: Babe you don't know how much I know about you?

____________________________________________

He was joking right? It got to be a joke. But why did he call you babe? He never called you that. This is the first time he is making you feel uncomfortable.

___________________________________________

VANTAE: What do you think you will go on a date and I'll have no idea?

You: How do you know?

VANTAE: Y/N I thought you love me.

VANTAE: How could you do that to me?

VANTAE: The girl I like is going on a date with my own elder brother. Dressing so sexily for him.You can only dress like that for me and no one else.

VANTAE: If anyone dares to lay their eyes on you I'll take their eyeballs out.

____________________________________________

What happened to Taehyung? From the past three months he never behaved this way. You thought him as a friend and he was stalking you. If he wasn't stalking you how did he know about your date and what are you wearing?

Date with his own brother- he is Namjoon's brother. But Namjoon told his brother passed away in an accident two years ago. Nothing was going into your head and you were terrified. The person you thought to be your friend turned out to be your stalker.

And if he knows what you are wearing that means he is watching you or maybe is somewhere very near to you. This made you more terrified than you already were. You quickly dialled Rose's number but to your bad luck there was no network.

"Trying to call that little friend of yours is useless, babe."

You heard a deep masculine voice from your appartment. You swear you are alone here so whose voice is it? You searched your surroundings and then your eyes landed on the balcony. You found a tall, masculine figure, dressed in all black standing there near the door.

Your phone fell from your hand and unknowingly you let out a scream

Hello, just wanted to say I love your blog and your opinions are really valuable to me! Now, asked this to another blog which opinions also I value about Jikook, because, like you, they work with the truth, and not delusions. Saying this just in case you see the same ask on another blog, it's only because I really like both of your opinions.

That being said, what do you think about the time when pictures of Jungkook hugging and going out with his female tattooist god leaked? Now, don't get me wrong, I know that time was very hard for Jungkook because of the unjustified hate he got for it, and I know just because a boy and a girl hug/interact doesn't equal to them dating (esp. with annoying ppl in this fandom where jk can't even BREATHE without ppl creating rumors that he's been dating 50 girls. I mean, did you see the crazy rumor about a rich blonde girl from Qatar? Lmao its CRAZY)

But, I really want to know about your opinion on this. Do you think they were just friends? Someone said that they weren't drinking alone in that restaurant. Or do you think Jikook were broken up at the time and they had a thing?

I think, that you are trying to pass yourself off as a Jikooker and anon,

Do you think they were just friends? Someone said that they were drinking alone in that restaurant. Or do you think Jikook were broken up at the time and they had a thing?

I would much rather talk about what happened after that. Here are some of my favourite moments from Bon Voyage season 4.

JK saying ILY then looking at Jimin immediately after

This one no one ever talks about. But someone said Jimin had arrived and the way JK immediately looks and perks up! Omg!! 😭😭😭

And he doesn't stop staring at Jimin either. He'd really missed his baby. Also the way he perked up reminds me of this popular moment when Jimin calls JK Kookosan and we get the happiest smile from JK that turns us all to mush.

I could have sworn JK was younger than Jimin. So idk why Jimin treats JK like he's the hyung

IYKYK 😌😌

JK saying Jimin's name as J.M and writing the same down.

I don't need to remind y'all his ink was still new so you're the delulu one if you think JK doesn't know what the letters on his hand look like.

We always talk about JK bringing the snow. But we don't talk enough about JK sitting by the snow waiting for Jimin to come out. We don't talk about how eager he was to show Jimin what he got him. How quickly he stood up all excited.

And the smile on his face as he watches Jimin's reaction is everything 🥺🥺🥺

And yes, I do think this may have been to make up for the scandal even though it wasn't JK's fault. Also if u notice JK is very subdued this season and Jimin was looking after him alot. It's why satellite Jimin was on an all time high in BV sn 4. Haters really put JK through the wringer but I'm glad his man was able to be there for him.

Hand holding to take a picture and JK removing his glove so it can be skin on skin. Feels 😩😩

Jimin drooling over how bad ass JK was for jumping upside down. You bet your ass he loves this side of JK.

This right here is a favourite of mine. (I have more but damn u tumblr and your image limit) They're in New Zealand. Beautiful, gorgeous country. They get directed to a place with a beautiful, beautiful, insane view. All other members are watching this view and admiring it. Meanwhile JK's view:

And he stared for a long time. The camera kept panning out and JK was still staring. If you truly believe JK is not in love with Jimin, then idk what to tell ya.

Anon, Jungkook is in love with Jimin, is committed to Jimin and Jimin only. Has only ever had eyes for Jimin, has never strayed and most probably never will. He's in this Jimin shit for life.

Period.

#anyway thanks for stopping by #jikook #kookmin #insecure jikookers #minkook #jimin and jungkook #bts #park jimin #jeon jungkook #bts ask #ask shaz #bon voyage jikook #jikook analysis #jikook is real #jimin #jungkook #whipped jk #whipped jungkook

Hello!!

I am so sorry 😭😭 I have a few things that I want to ask.

Let’s start with gender. I’ve been here a lot talking about my gender experience and how I feel somewhat connected to my agab being afab.

Personally, I hate when I am referred to as a girl/women. When my friends plan a ‘girls trip’ I get annoyed… when people assume I am a ‘young lady’ I get frustrated. I don’t get why I am like that specifically because it’s been as of recent (only about a year). Before that it never really annoyed it or maybe I just never thought much about the terms I was being referred to as.

Sometimes I feel as if I am faking my gender. Like I should just stop thinking about it and let myself be perceived as how I was born. But that feels wrong. But also doesn’t?

It feels wrong in the sense that I’ve spent a year thinking about gender and how I am not cis, that now I believe that I am not cis, but when I think about it again it’s like maybe I am just cis and I just want to show people that gender isn’t important and that people can dress how they want to without being perceived a specific binary gender etc.

In the past year I have felt comfortable thinking I was agender, but I still sometimes feel like I am just cis (minus the desire to want to chop off my tits 24/7).

That’s another thing. I only started feeling chest Dysphoria in the last 2 years. Before that I liked them… 😭😭 I hate saying that bc now they make me so angry and just the thought of them makes me feel sick.

This is me basically asking is if it is normal to doubt my gender or does it seem like I’m faking it.

Bc sometimes when I think about myself it’s as a girl and then when I think about it properly it’s like ‘ew why did I make my future self look like that’ bc I want to look visibly queer but my unconscious brain just perceives me as a girl.

Ok secondly, (I’m so sorry this might get really long) I’m questioning my sexuality?

I think it’s sexuality?

So I am bi. That’s a known fact. I’ve known that since 2021. But when I think about being in a relationship with someone it’s always so different to how other people perceive relationships. (I’ve never been in a relationship)

The thing is, I can’t imagine being intimate with anyone. Like it’s just weird. But I want it someday.

I read… a lot!! And I love reading all kinds of fluff that gets my stomach erupting with butterflies, I also love reading smut, it doesn’t make me feel grossed out or anything and I quite enjoy it.

It’s just when I picture myself with someone else it’s just like ‘nope, not for me’. BUT I DO WANT IT!!

Could this just be lack of relationship and experience or could I be on the ace spectrum.

I’ve looked at some of the terms and demisexual is kind of what I’m feeling but also not bc I do want to one day build a strong connection to someone and have a trusting relationship where I can express my love (ok yes that’s cringy to say but idk how else to word it).

I also have had crushes in the past but when I think about if I’d want to get to know them better it’s just a straight up ‘nope’ (that’s probably just my social anxiety tho)

and I’ve spoken to my sister about this relationship stuff and she is the same, like we both wouldn’t kiss someone after the first few dates and wouldn’t be thinking about anything further until there is a real bond.

Is this just lack of relationship? Am I just overthinking it too much?

Lastly, thank you so much Cas!! You are the most kind hearted person ever for always responding to my asks (yes I’ve asked a lot bc I crisis a lot) and honestly you’ve saved my life in so many different ways! I hope you have an amazing day/night!

🌼🌹🪻🌻🌸

Hi! <3 I'm gonna answer this bit-by-bit

Hello!!

Hi!

I am so sorry 😭😭 I have a few things that I want to ask.

No sorries!

Let’s start with gender. I’ve been here a lot talking about my gender experience and how I feel somewhat connected to my agab being afab.

Sometimes I feel as if I am faking my gender. Like I should just stop thinking about it and let myself be perceived as how I was born. But that feels wrong. But also doesn’t?

You're not faking anything! These feelings are valid, and being your authentic self is important!

In the past year I have felt comfortable thinking I was agender, but I still sometimes feel like I am just cis (minus the desire to want to chop off my tits 24/7).

Have youuuuuu heard of genderfluid? Where your gender can kind of change depending on the day? What you're saying feels very genderfluid.

This is me basically asking is if it is normal to doubt my gender or does it seem like I’m faking it.

Absolutely it's normal! You are anonymously writing to me on the internet- you're not faking it. Truly, please look into genderfluid. I don't usually push someone towards one identity but yeah. What you're describing is very similar to how I feel, so I think it might be helpful.

I think this is something that a lot of people don't realize: when/if you transition in any way, it sometimes even takes YOU time to adjust. You've been conditioned your whole life to picture and refer to yourself a certain way. Old habits die hard. To me, it's not what's the first thing you think of, it's what feels the best?

Ok secondly, (I’m so sorry this might get really long) I’m questioning my sexuality?

I think it’s sexuality?

The thing is, I can’t imagine being intimate with anyone. Like it’s just weird. But I want it someday.

Hm. Why? Do you...want it because other people do? Because you want the closeness of being intimate with someone? Because you...(how do I ask this in a proper way)...feel you would enjoy it?

It’s just when I picture myself with someone else it’s just like ‘nope, not for me’. BUT I DO WANT IT!!

Could this just be lack of relationship and experience or could I be on the ace spectrum.

I think I a lot of people don't realize that being ace doesn't necessarily mean you're sex-repulsed. Many ace people have sex and still identify as ace. I think here, I'd encourage you to think more about WHAT exactly you feel when you read those things (I don't want to go into detail much incase you're underage).

Well...Only you can decide if you're demi. But I identify as demi, and I have those things!

I also have had crushes in the past but when I think about if I’d want to get to know them better it’s just a straight up ‘nope’ (that’s probably just my social anxiety tho)

Is this just lack of relationship? Am I just overthinking it too much?

Okay so I think this website could be helpful to you. I don't think you're overthinking at all, but I think it might be good to do some research on the ace spectrum. Like I said, being ace doesn't necessarily mean a person is sex-repulsed, so it could be that you do end up identifying as ace!

🌼🌹🪻🌻🌸

(some flowers for you) xx

Of course!!! Feel free to message me if you want more help! Thanks for the flowers!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Acelynn was on the phone with her best friends Rudy,JD, and Madi when JD told her to check her phone as she walked away from it.

"JD just tell me im doing my hair." you groaned at the phone with product over your hands. "Ace. look at the phone right now." it was Rudy this time, a smile prominent in his voice, and when you heard Madison scream you rushed over to your phone to see a following list that you were on. "why are we looking at who follows-" and that's when you saw the name at the top. JD stopped screen sharing as soon you saw and caught your reaction telling Rudy and Madison to pose.

you couldn't believe it. "Am I fucking dreaming?" her Caribbean accent thick with excitement . They all laughed at her and continued catching up until they met up around 7 for press.

acesbeautifulones

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Rudy! Rudy, Rudy, Rudy," you punched his shoulder repeatedly as he was sat next to you during one of your breaks. You showed him your phone and stole it passing it to JD and Madison. They both surrounded you as you got your phone back. "Well are you gonna answer it?"

Harry had dm'ed you.

"Well of course I am, I just- my fingers are shaking." you all laughed and you walked away wanting to give the conversation privacy. You didn't know what he was going to say and if he wanted it to be private.

hello! I just wanted to say thank you for all your support with coming to my shows. It truly means a lot. xx

hey and holy shit! if I could go to every show I certainly would, and don't thank me, you deserve it.

im in LA for another day and id like to thank. you properly. could I have your number so we can talk details. If your up for it of course.

WHAT THE FUCK

yes here you go 123-456-7890

======

Hey this is Harry, are you free to call?

instead of answering you pressed the call button and waited for him to pick up.

" 'Lo."

"hey Harry its acelynn." you saw all three of their faces turn shocked and excited when you spoke.

"Hey Acelynn, how are you?"

"Im great thank you, how are you?"

"im doing pretty good, uhm- are you free today? Sorry that was very direct I-"

"I'm free around noon Harry, don't worry." you softly laughed at his shyness.

"Oh-alright great. Did you want me to pick you up, or-or do we wanna meet somewhere, we can get food or just walk around somewhere- maybe both?"

You loved hearing him talk and you knew this was no good. "Im at a press location right now, so I don't want you to have to go out of your way, and both sounds perfect." you had ridden with Rudy to the press site for today so your car was still at home.

"its not a problem, it was my idea. send me your address and I will be there at noon."

"harry are you-"

"I'm sure. Ill see you in an hour, okay?"

"Okay, okay. Ill see you soon Harry."

"See you soon, Acelynn."

Sparring prompts!

Sasuke/anyone (MC or another warlord)

Prompt#7 and/or dialogue#9

---

You don't have to fill this one but you're pretty amazing and I'm looking forward to seeing what the other prompts yield.

Hello and thank you so much for this request! I apologize that it took me so long to get to it, but I was honestly so excited when I got this one. When I read this one, it instantly came to my mind to show the early days of Sasuke's relationships with Kenshin and Yukimura (the dynamics between the suitors is honestly one of the things I love the most about ikesen besides the romance and adventure, so I had fun exploring this). So, I hope you like this one @drewadoodle-dandy!

Sparring Prompts- Dialogue 9: "I won't go easy on you." "I don't want you to."

Ikesen: Sasuke and Kenshin and Yukimura

Training Day

Sasuke stood across the training hall of Kasugayama, sword in hand. The first time he had ever held a weapon. He had expected to be given a practice sword, but no, that was not to be how his training was handled. The sword felt heavy and awkward in his hands, but he would need to learn to wield this weapon and others. It was the only way he would be able to survive. The only way he would be able to protect the strange woman who had saved him when the lightning struck and they were thrown back in time.

“You’ll get used to it.” The harsh voice of the man across from him said. “If not, you’ll certainly die.”

“A fact I am very aware of, Lord Kenshin.” Sasuke replied with a nod. It had only been three days ago that Sasuke had saved the life of Kenshin Uesugui. Only three days ago that this man who insisted on a rather rigorous training program had almost died. Yet now he stood in front of Sasuke, the picture of health and stamina.

“Are you certain you are ready for this training, Sasuke?” Kenshin asked.

Sasuke nodded. “Yes, I need to learn how to survive. I need to protect myself and those important to me.”

“I won’t go easy on you.” Kenshin informed him.

Sasuke gave Kenshin a determined look. It was clear Kenshin believed in the sink or swim philosophy when it came to training. But perhaps that is what Sasuke needed. He came from a time of peace and never needed to even know how to throw a punch. Most fighting was done over the internet and video games. “I don’t want you to.”

The next thing Sasuke knew, Kenshin was charging at him. With effort Sasuke lifted his own sword to block Kenshin’s. Sasuke had been watching others train before he and Kenshin began, so he thankfully picked up on a few defensive moves. For what felt like hours, Sasuke spent the day training with Kenshin, blocking his attacks, but never making a move to strike at Kenshin back.

“Why do you not fight back?” Kenshin asked, clearly irritated.

“I believe it would be bad form to attack my new boss.” Sasuke replied.

Kenshin’s heterochromatic eyes narrowed at him. “You are always so strange.” He murmured before lifting his sword once more.

After spending the entire day training with Kenshin, Sasuke dragged his weary body to the room he had been given. He’d always kept in shape by doing parkour, but this…this was entirely new and different. Kenshin’s level of strength and power was staggering. You’d never know how close he came to death just mere days ago.

Sasuke spent the next several weeks training closely with Kenshin. The training began taking on a new intensity every day. It would start first thing in the morning, Kenshin coming to wake Sasuke up with “surprise” attacks. The attacks increased and Sasuke was pretty much fending Kenshin off from sunup to sundown and sometimes even getting woken up in the middle of the night.

Kenshin’s surprise attacks were strengthening his skills for sure, but he was also getting worn out. Sasuke finally decided to take to hiding. Sasuke learned how to shake Kenshin when he was tailing him and could sneak in bits of respite in hiding.

“Get back here, Sasuke and face me like a man! Quit running!” Kenshin yelled after him as Sasuke used a smoke bomb to escape his most recent attack.

Sasuke soundlessly bounded down the hall and disappeared into a room, taking a breath as Kenshin ran past, angrily swatting through the smoke. “I will find you Sasuke and you’ll have to fight me like you mean it!”

“Man, you are crazy for putting up with that.”

Sasuke looked up, realizing that he had entered Yukimura’s room rather than an empty one. “I apologize for barging into your room. I’ll leave once it’s safe.”

Yukimura waved it off. “It’s alright. You can feel free to hide out any time. I try to avoid Kenshin as much as possible, too.”

“Thanks.” Sasuke replied.

“No problem.” Yukimura replied, giving Sasuke a smile. He was then offering Sasuke to take a seat. “Take a rest. I know training is important but so is rest…and I know Lord Kenshin hasn’t been giving you much of that.

“That’s true.” Sasuke replied, sitting on the offered cushion, but he was still on alert, listening for any sound of Kenshin. “But…the training has been paying off.”

“It definitely seems like it, but you’ve been pulling off some pretty cool moves when you’re dodging his attacks.” Yukimura replied. “I’ve never seen anything like that.”

“Oh, it’s parkour.” Sasuke replied, something he had done back in modern day.

“Par-what now?” Yukimura replied.

“Oh, it’s a sport from…my hometown.” Sasuke replied.

“Well, whatever it is, it comes in handy.” Yukimura replied. “And it’s really great.”

“Yeah, something I never realized would come in handy here.” Sasuke replied. “I never knew I’d be using parkour for my life…or that it would be so frequent.”

“So, what is your hometown like anyways?” Yukimura asked. “You….don’t seem like much of a fighter, plus I know you helped Lord Kenshin and us without knowing who we all were.”

“Yeah…it’s a rather peaceful place. Fighting isn’t something I’m used to.” Sasuke explained. “Being in the middle of a battlefield and…all of this…it wasn’t exactly what I had expected to happen. I had my theories…but well…”

“Sounds like a nice place.” Yukimura replied. “Though I find it hard to believe that there’s anywhere quite like that.”

“It’s…rather far away.” Sasuke replied. There was something about Yukimura that he liked. Something that seemed…almost like a kindred spirit in a way. Though the two men couldn’t be any more different. Before more could be said, the door was crashing down and Kenshin was barreling in the room.

“Sasuke! I knew I’d find you!” Kenshin roared, his sword overhead. “Why are you hiding?”

Sasuke quickly grabbed a kunai and was using it to block Kenshin’s blade. “A ninja’s job is to stay in the shadows and stay hidden.” He pointed out, matter-of-factly.

Kenshin glared at him, though he did offer a word of praise. “Your reflexes are improving.” He was then bringing his sword back before going for another attack.

Sasuke managed to dodge the attack. He looked to Yukimura briefly in what the other man interpreted as an apologetic manner before he was pulling out yet another smoke bomb.

Yukimura held up his hand before picking up his own weapon and interceding in the fight with Kenshin. “Alright, come on, I think you’ve given Sasuke enough. Why don’t you take on me?” He suggested.

“I couldn’t ask you to do that.” Sasuke told Yukimura.

“It’s alright. I’ve got it.” Yukimura said.

“I’ll take on the both of you!” Kenshin declared, lifting his sword once again, moving to attack both of them.

Yukimura pushed Sasuke back with one arm, while he held his sword to block Kenshin’s attack with the other. He looked over at Sasuke. “Don’t worry, I’ve got this.” He said with a confident smile.

Sasuke nodded and gave Yukimura a quick and polite bow of his head. “Thanks! You’re totally my BFF!” He declared before running out of the room and quickly making himself disappear in the castle.

Yukimura had only a moment to ponder Sasuke’s strange words as Kenshin was changing his attack. He made a mental note to ask the strange ninja later. He hoped it was something good.

Songs that are so Thomas Andrews x Rose Andrews DeWitt Bukater coded in my head:

“king of the world, pt 2” - Ben Platt

Reason: it mentions Titanic…so yk.

“And he tells you you're the king of the world

That's just love on the Titanic

When you think you found forever

'Cause it seems like you can never get enough”

“In Your Love” - Tyler Childers

Reason: it’s a “star crossed lovers” anthem even though these two lived a long happy life together in my head

“We were never made to run forever

We were just meant to go long enough

To find what we were chasin' after

I believe I found it here

In your love”

“Top of the World” - Hunchback of Notre Dame the Musical

Reason: listenlistenlisten…just imagine the “Jack! I’m flying” scene but with Thomas and Rose, and these are Rose’s thoughts

“Seeing life from the top of the world

Nothing needs fighting

And no one needs pity

Thanks for giving this moment to me

When just for a moment things stop

Here at the top of the world”

“So Will I” - Ben Platt

Reason: HELLO? this song is so gentle, and Thomas is a gentle man, and the calm to Rose’s storm. And this song is just…so soothing for my anxiety.

“You say, "What if I don't catch the dreams

That I've been out there chasing?"

"What if when my fears show up, I'm too afraid to face them?"

Well, I can't fight your battles

But I sure can hold your hand and promise you

That the sky will still be up there

And the sun will always shine

The stars will keep on fallin'

For the ones who wish at night

The mountains won't start moving

And the rivers won't run dry

The world will always be there

And so will I”

“A Safe Place to Land” - Sarah Bareilles, John Legend

Reason: they are both each other’s safe place to land. that’s it.

“The ocean is wild and over your head

And the boat beneath you is sinking

Don't need room for your bags, hope is all that you have

So say the Lord's Prayer twice, hold your babies tight

Surely someone will reach out a hand

And show you a safe place to land”

“Remedy” - Adele

reason: the first part is Rose’s pov for sure, but the rest of the song can be either.

“I remember all of the things that I thought I wanted to be

So desperate to find a way out of my world and finally breathe

Right before my eyes, I saw that my heart, it came to life

This ain't easy, it's not meant to be

Every story has its scars

But when the pain cuts you deep

When the night keeps you from sleeping

Just look and you will see

That I will be your remedy”

“Make You Feel My Love” Adele

reason: okay so sorta takes place during that scene where Rose is like “Jack leave me alone” in the workout room but it’s Thomas Andrews and he is…yea.

“When the evening shadows and the stars appear

And there is no one there to dry your tears

I could hold you for a million years

To make you feel my love

I know you haven't made your mind up yet

But I will never do you wrong

I've known it from the moment that we met

No doubt in my mind where you belong”

“Run Away” - Ben Platt

Reason: yes. another Ben Platt song…I have a weak spot for any song that I can picture Mr. Andrews reassuring Rose that she can let her guard down.

“I love you more and more each day

To love is not to leave

So, hear me when I say

"I may not be wise

And I won't save the day

But look in my eyes

And know I'll always stay

And I won't run away"”

#thomas andrews #titanic #rose dewitt bukater #rose andrews #thomas andrews x rose dewitt bukater #thomas andrews x rose #Thomas x rose #will be adding to this #rose dawson #Mr Andrews

The younger him

1st year toge x reader x 2nd year Toge

Note: I've seen many art about such things like somehow a time travel happen or something like 1st year toge comes to the future and stuff?

it was a casual day sleeping next to Toge, yet something unexpected happened. Who would have thought that something like this would actually happen to you both.

That morning, You hugged toge ruffling his hair “cutie!” he just smiled to tell you how much he appreciated that. “good morning” you kissed him quickly as suddenly you heard footsteps near the door.

It's probably his mother you thought to yourself as he kept wanting to kiss you more. You just loved him, you knew how much his mother values his privacy so probably she won't open the door unless she knocks!

Yet the door was wide open and there stood a young looking guy who seemed to be toge's brother. “Ah! I'm sorry!” you immediately sat down still hugging toge. The little guy looked traumatised!

“mhm!? Mentaiko!?” he immediately pulled down his collar. He really was like toge.. “since when do you have a brother?” you mumbled as you looked at the man between your arms who was as confused as you were.

“takana...” Toge got up slowly from the bed analysing the similar guy who was shocked by his bedroom's door. “Hmph!” Toge frowned recognising that it's him from the past year.

What even happened... Toge can't just do anything about it except communicating with that familiar guy. “hello um what bought you here?” Toge asked the guy assuming that he could understand him because of his marks.

“no.. That's my room! What are you doing here?!” The guy replied it was just confusing for both of them. “look! It literally got my pictures on the wall!” The guy pointed, as toge immediately realised that it was him. Its his younger self.

“so.. Who's that dear? Did you figure it out?” you mumbled blushing looking at them. “shake!” Toge replied followed by the explanation. And honestly after toge explained to you, your jaw dropped.

“um I guess you don't recognise me.. Im Y/N.. Your future girlfriend.” you introduced yourself getting up as toge immediately started laughing, “huh okaka.. ” he replied in shock as if he didn't believe it. “Takana?!” he asked as you just noded.

Funny how Toge felt offended by his younger self. Toge didn't really like how your attention was shifted to him too...

“Toge dear, can you please get me that book of our memories?” Toge nodded going to the closet. You wanted to show the past toge your memories with him, Toge just liked the idea so he agreed to search for the book.

Meanwhile Toge wasn't looking at you both you hugged the younger Toge and started playing with his hair. Honestly he was embarrassed of how cute it was of you.. Especially that he liked you at that time.

Clearly when The present toge got the book he noticed the blush on his face and he was a bit upset. It was just cute of both of you though. “so will my confession get accepted?” Toge asked on a paper wondering as you just held his hand kissing it gently.. “yes my dear, it will” you smiled.

“um and you will look as handsome as toge is right now in the future! Everyday you get prettier if I think about it” you blushed laughing a bit. “shake!” he replied. It was honestly great that you bonded well with toge's younger self, yet.. Something about it made Toge jealous.

He tried to get your attention and went to another room hoping you might search for him yet time passed and you seemed not to be noticing. Toge felt really replaced by himself, He was jealous of himself.

In another room Toge sat there crying. He thought that you'd notice from the first minute. When he came back he found you and the other toge laughing at the memories. “look at this!” you laughed..

Yeah it felt upsetting to toge, the way you were hugging his younger self and the way your arm was all around his waist while he sat between your legs... Everything made him jealous. That was just simply some hugging nothing more, right?

Not until suddenly toge held your face kissing you. For you, it felt amazing, especially that toge's lips nowadays weren't as smooth as always because of the winter. Toge just was standing across the room crying. He was aware of how his lips got since you were "avoiding" to kiss him earlier and just doing it quickly.

He looked at you in disbelief as he slapped you suddenly. “Ikura! Mentaiko!” it was the first time you ever saw toge being that angry. He was crying angry tears while trying to stop himself from doing anything that will make you upset.

“what exactly do you think you're doing?... Seriously you slapped me?! ” you replied pushing him on the floor. You were mad, you loved him, yet he slapped you for the first time.

The young Toge completely understood himself and started yelling at you “okaka!” he cried. At this time you realised how much he loved you. Yet you just slept on facing the wall with quite tears running down your cheeks.

Toge felt like he didn't have any other choice but to talk with his younger self while you were "asleep".

“Toge, listen... You know how much jealous I am..” Toge said sitting next to you. “yeah.. I know but yet.. I wouldn't allow her to hit me like that.” he just replied watching how “weak„ he was in the future. “i don't allow her.. Its the first time we get into a fight.. Our relationship is considered to be understanding always..”

Toge just started to understand his younger self more, it was just a misunderstanding if Toge might say. “yeah I was jealous.. Of you..” he hugged himself as you rolled to the other side where they sat.

The younger Toge smiled and hugged you from behind as toge hugged you from the front. Honestly, it was such a crazy time.

After you woke up you saw them both hugging you, like it was really sweet.

“I'm sorry Toge...im really sorry!” you hugged him tightly apologising for pushing him like that. It wasn't so long till you turned around to find the younger Toge awake. “kelp..” he smiled proud of himself.

“Toge, if you want try going out of the door and entering again.. Maybe you can go back to your time..” you assumed holding his hand. “shake!” he got up stretching.

“first.. Take this”, you gave him your hair tie and placed it on his hand. Finally you hugged him tightly before letting him go. Toge just felt attached to you, he couldn't just leave without kissing you for one last time.

The fact that he started crying although he wasn't sure that it would take him back to the past made you smile. Suddenly he held your hands placing a kiss on your lips. It felt awesome yet it broke your heart. “mhm take care of yourself” you closed the door as you opened it to find him disappeared.

You would miss him. He was really adorable.. Yet, you have the future him. You really was hoping that it would be a dream though.. Just to find toge waking up from his nap with the same hair tie you gave him.

Maybe it wasn't a dream.. But you were happy to find out that toge kept your hair tie on his hand.

Part 3 - Made for You

Unexpected Visitor

Veronica

The first three weeks of school were absolutely crazy, finding my way around campus, getting used to the new workload trying to come up with a new routine and trying not to go crazy without Eddie and my friends and family. Luckily my neighbors were wonderful, two of them were actually in some of the same classes so we decided to band together and help each other study. Melissa was my upstairs neighbor, and Brian was my downstairs neighbor, we also all played strings so once we were settled we were going to start a practice group.

" How are classes going baby?" I looked forward to hearing his voice every night.

" It's going. A little overwhelming still, but getting better. Got a study group together so that is good."

" That's great! " he paused." I got your letter. "

I smiled to myself." Did you like it?"

" I loved it. The perfume was a nice touch.I put it right next to my sexy pictures of you."

" Glad you like it. "

" I miss you so much sweetheart. Wayne will be back next week, then your all mine."

" I can't wait to kiss you."

" I know baby its been brutal but we've almost made it. " he paused," So what are you wearing?"

I laughed." I'm super sexy right now, glasses, ginormous sweatshirt, leggings and socks. Are you drooling yet?"

" Hair in a messy bun? "

"Yes."

" Bra or no bra?"

" No bra, I'm in for the night."

" Your painting a pretty picture for me dollface." He sighed. " What were you doing when I called ?"

" Want a hint?"

" Sure."

" I have something big and hard between my legs-"

" What the fuck? "

" Get your mind out of the gutter Perv, think about it."

There was a pause. " Your playing your cello!"

" Ding ding ding!"

" Play me something."

I set down the phone and started playing Stairway to heaven by Led Zeppelin. About half way through there was a knock on the door." What the fuck? Baby, there is a knock on the door?"

" Is your door locked?"

" Of course it is! It's not like someone is going to knock then try to break in? Maybe it is one of my neighbors."

" Go look through the peephole, don't open the door! Stay on the phone with me!"

" It's a good thing I have a long cord!" I put my cello back in the stand and there was another knock. I snuck up to the door and peeked out the peephole. " Holy shit!"

" Are you ok? It's not some weirdo is it?"

" Kind of, it's Harrington?"

" What?" Eddie sounded confused.

" Yeah, I am going to call you back Ed's. I can't leave him out there."

" If he puts the moves on you fucking deck him."

I laughed." I'll be fine. Call ya back ,love ya!"

" Love you."

I unlocked all my locks and opened up my door. " Hello Harrington, what the hell are you doing here?" I smiled.

He looked at me with sad eyes. " I just really needed to talk to you."

I put my arm around his shoulder and walked him into my apartment and closed the door. " Must be something important if you drove three hours instead of calling."

"Nancy dumped me, she's fucking around with that asshole Jonathan." He ran his hands through his hair." She failed to mention that he was also accepted and attending Emerson."

" I knew she was acting shady!" I lead him to the couch." Here, sit down." I went to the fridge and got him a soda, quickly made him a PB and J sandwich and brought it in." Here eat."

He took a big bite like he was starving. " I just can't believe it, I mean I can. I think Robin knew, I think she goddamn knew and didn't say anything because she didn't want to rat out Nancy. I'm so fucking pissed."

" That really sucks Steve, I'm so sorry."

" You told me if I ever needed to talk you would listen. I needed to get out of Hawkins, clear my head. Oh nice place by the way."

" I like it, it's got character." I watched him wolf down the rest of his sandwich," Want another? I could make you a salad but it isn't exactly comfort food."

He chugged his soda." Another sandwich would be awesome. I'm sorry for just showing up. "

" Don't apologize. You just surprised me is all. I wasn't expecting any company." I got up and made him another sandwich, grabbed him an apple and brought it back."Sorry I don't have any junk food, I don't want it around for me to stress eat. I don't have any booze either. Some friend I am. I would have got ice cream if I had known you were coming."

" This is awesome, thank you. I think I just needed someone to vent to, someone that would show some compassion. Eddie would have told me to man the fuck up and move on."

" No, he is a big ol softy."

" Ok maybe old Eddie would have told me that."

" What are the kids going to do without you!"

" I'm trying to cut the apron strings a little, they need to become a little more independent, they are Sophomores now."

" Your right." I smiled.

He smiled back." I really did miss you Montgomery."

" Missed you too Harrington. When you're finished eating I will show you around the apartment . How long are you staying?"

" A couple days, is that ok?"

" Fine. I have class but you can hang out. I can show you around when I am done. Might as well make the most out of this trip."

" Have my stuff in the car, I wanted to make sure it was ok for me to stay. And as for me, I do have alcohol."

" Don't puke in my apartment Steve."

" I won't."

" I will drink with you tomorrow, it's Friday."

" Have you gone to any big college parties?"

I laughed." Have you forgotten who you are talking to? If you count study group a party then yeah."

" All work and no play."

" I'm trying to stay focused, keep my anxiety at bay."

" You are the smartest, most grounded person I know."

" It takes work to be that way, I was a hot fucking mess 2 weeks ago, but I am better now."

He put his hand on my back," Why didn't you call?"

" Because I want to be independent. Prove to myself I could do it on my own. I certainly didn't want to tell Eddie, he's already worried enough. I worked through it and I'm ok. Go get your stuff, then you can sit back and relax ."

" Ok, then grand tour?"

" You got it."

Steve went to go get his stuff and I went and got him a blanket and pillow and put it on the couch. When he came in I gave him the tour." Mi casa es su casa. Make yourself at home Harrington."

He wrapped me up in a hug." Thank Veronica."

" Your welcome Steven." I squeezed him tight then backed away." It's getting late, I'm sorry I have to bail on you. I promise we will have a proper vent session tomorrow."

" Sounds like a plan." He hugged me again." This is just what I needed."

" Get a good nights sleep, let me know if you need anything. Good night!"

*************************************

I could smell the aroma of food cooking as I walked up to the building and was pleasantly surprised when I realized it was coming from my apartment. I opened my door to see Steve standing in my little kitchen cooking something that smelled amazing, wearing my Pink apron.

" That looks fabulous on you." I smiled. " What are you cooking? It smells delicious!"

" Chicken Parmigiana and a salad, a little thank you for letting me crash. I went to that little market down the road picked up some stuff."

" So did I." I set down the bag I carried in and unpacked two cartons of ice cream." Rocky Road for you, mint chip for me. This right here is how girls handle break ups."

Steve smiled and picked up a bottle of whiskey," This is how guys handle break ups."

" How much longer till we eat?"

" Maybe 20?"

" I am going to call Eds." I picked up the phone and dialed Eddies number, he picked up on the second ring.

" Hello?"

" Hey baby! How's my hairy little hobbit doing today?" I watched Steve's face turn up in a smile.

" Jesus," he laughed." I'm good Princess, how was your day ?"

" It was busy but good. I signed up to give violin lessons to kiddo's to make extra cash. Start that next week."

" You are going to be so good at that sweetheart, are you sure it's not too much?How's Harrington? "

" He's cooking dinner, then we are going to sit and eat ice cream and talk shit about Nancy since she cheated on him with Jonathan."

" Oh shit, really? She's so quick to judge but then she goes and fucks around? I felt like she was off when we went to the cabin."

" Same. Say Hi to Steven," I walked into the kitchen carrying the phone along with me, I put it up to his ear.

" Hey Munson."

I heard," Hey Harrington, sorry about Nance. That sucks. She really screwed you over, you don't deserve to be cheated on."

" It fucking sucks! She was my life! "

" I know man." Eddie said, " When you get back come over and we will hang out, have some beers."

" For sure, tonight I'm drinking with your Princess." Steve smirked.

" You'd be better off drinking with me, you have seen her in action, she is a mess."

" Yeah but she's got a nice rack and you don't." He laughed.

" You better keep your hands to yourself Harrington."

" Don't get your panties in a bunch, I was just joking. It is abundantly clear that she is your girl. Don't worry."

" Just wanted to make that clear."

" Crystal. Now I've got to let you go so my pasta doesn't over cook. Mother fuckin pastas got to be Al Dente."

We all laughed and he handed the phone back to me. " I will be on my best behavior, I promise."

" It's not you I am worried about baby."

" I love you baby, I can't wait till you are here, I'm counting down the days."

" Shooting for next weekend. Then it's just you and me making up for lost time."

" I'm looking forward to that." I smiled to myself . " I am going to let you go for now, I love you so much snuggle bunny."

He laughed." I love you too my queen."

" Oh , I like that! Good night, Eddie."

" Good night love."

I waited for him to hang up first then put the phone back down on the stand.

" Hairy Hobbit and Snuggle bunny?" Steve smirked.

" Yeah, he hates it. You call him Hairy Hobbit, guarantee you will get punched. But he loves me so I can get away with it." I smiled.

" Love isn't the way to describe what that guy feels for you. Obsessed, maybe. He completely lost his shit that night you walked out of the party after 'the Chrissy incident.' Dude cried his eyes out, was convinced that he would lose you forever."

" I was drunk and overreacted, I should have seen it for what it really was, but I'm also a rational human being when I'm sober."

" I'm am so jealous of what you guys have. "

" You'll have that some day Steve, your problem is that you go for popularity and looks, us nerds and band geeks, we don't fuck around, we know a good thing when we see it and we hold on for the long haul. Probably because we don't play the field much. You need to find yourself a faithful band geek. I should introduce you to my neighbor Melissa ,very cute, very smart."

" I'm still licking my wounds right now but definitely in the future."

" But if we should happen to run into her outside... I am going to introduce you."

"Sure." He fixed our plates and handed one to me. " Enjoy."

" This looks fantastic!" I sat on the couch and he sat beside me." I haven't eaten real food in weeks! I just eat pj and j or cereal because I don't feel like eating leftovers for days. You are quite the cook."

" When you spend 80% of your life home alone you learn how to cook when you get sick of eating crap."

I took a bite ." Oh my god, it's sooo good! Nice job Steven!"

He smiled." Thanks!"

" Like I am seriously impressed. Thank you so much!"

" Thanks for being an amazing friend."

" Besties for life." We clinked our drinks.

We finished our dinner and put it away than grabbed the bottle of whiskey.

" Ok Harrington, let's get shitty. Just not too shitty, remember no puking."

He opened up the bottle and took a big swig than handed it over, I tipped it up and took a mouthful. It was absolutely disgusting.

" Jesus Christ, it's awful!"

" I brought it to get drunk Veronica, not to casually sip." He took another swig than handed it back.

" I'm going to pace myself."

" Where is the fun in that?"

" Ok one more," I tipped the bottle up and swallowed." Goddamn." I got up and went to my room and got my little radio and turned it on than set it on the side table."There- music, whiskey , let the shit talking commence." I sat back down Indian style on the couch.

" What the fuck does Jonathan have that I don't?"

" I honestly don't know, I never met him."

" Oh, that's right. Maybe it's because he's a quiet, mysterious, college boy."

" Boring! Listen Steve, you're a total catch, your funny, sweet, brave, you're a great dancer, you have great hair, you can take a punch-"

" Those things are important right?" He took another drink.

" Absolutely! Your protective of your friends, you're a great cook, and your handsome-"

He smiled a charming smile at me."You think I'm handsome?"

I gave him a look." You know I do. " I could feel the alcohol kicking in." And so did all the girls you had sex with in high school, I don't know how many for sure because I wasn't there but I heard you were kind of a slut."

Steve laughed. " Maybe just a little, when I wasn't going out with Nancy. I was just trying to fill the void."

I laughed, " You were filling a lot of voids ."

He cracked up. " That was fucking funny."

" That is why I was nervous about going out on a date with you. " I pointed to myself."I'm me, and Your you. You have a reputation AND your hot, I had basically zero experience, I had only kissed one boy in my life. That's pretty intimidating. I was like, is he going to make a move, what am I going to do if he does? "

" I don't understand why you always talk about yourself like that. You are beautiful.I don't know what's wrong with the guys out in California."

" I didn't fit the California esthetic, Steve, blonde , blue eyed, size zero Barbie dolls with perfect hair, perfect makeup. I was more worried about school than makeup. It screws with your self esteem. Guys in my classes would come to me for answers on homework, not dates."

" They were fucking idiots."

" You say that but how many Barbie girls did you fuck vs girls like me?" I took another drink.

He sat back and thought about it. " I was a superficial asshole."

I raised my eyebrows. " You and every other high school boy."

" But just so you know, if Munson hadn't threatened me before our date-"

" What?" I interrupted.

" Munson came to me before our date and told me I had better treat you right because you were a good girl."

" Really? Oh my god!."

" You looked so pretty that night, your personality was so refreshing, if I hadn't gotten the lecture I would have tried a little more than a kiss goodnight. And despite my reputation, I have never been creepy or pushy."

" I wouldn't think you would be Steve. "

" So hypothetically, if I had gone for a make out session?"

" I would have been a little awkward but accepting."

" I should have went for it." He slowly shook his head, the alcohol kicking in. "Man, who knows what would have happened. When did Munson make his move?"

" The next day."'

" He didn't waste time. I didn't even get a second chance to prove myself because of him, I could have rocked your world." He smirked.

I smiled, whiskey fully kicking in now."Probably, but anyone lasting longer than 2 minutes would have rocked my world."

" What a Rookie, yikes ." Steve shook his head again, took another drink

" To be fair it was both of our first times." I laughed the whiskey fully kicking in. " I couldn't understand what all the fuss was about. "

" Oh boy." He leaned a little closer. " I would have shown you what the fuss was all about."

" I bet."

" I still can't believe you two were dating for months before we knew, so you guys waited a couple of months to have sex? That blows my mind. You guys are so intimate with each other all the time."

" We didn't want to rush into it. God it was a long couple months, but the build up made it worth it. That's when I knew what it was all about." I closed my eyes and smiled to myself. I could feel my head getting fuzzy.

" I remember when Nancy couldn't keep her hands off me. We used to do it all the time. Those were the good old days. Now I'm celibate Steve." He took another drink and I took the bottle from him.

" I'm sorry buddy." I took one last sip than stumbled over to the counter to put the whiskey bottle away.I came back and flopped down next to him. "I'm sorry your going through such a hard time. I wish there was something I could do."

He smirked. " You could dump Munson and give me another chance, I know I could make you happy."

I put my head on his shoulder." Sorry Steven, but I'm head over heels."

He sighed. " I know." He ran his hand over my head." Can I tell you a secret?"

" Sure."

" I think I'm drunk."

I laughed. " It's not a secret, and guess what? So am I. We should have gone the ice cream route."

Steve laughed a goofy laugh. "I have another secret for you."

" Welcome to Drunk Confessions with Steve Harrington."

" Sometimes you need a little liquid courage to get things off your chest" he sighed."I have had the biggest crush on you ever since I saw you playing the drums with Corroded Coffin the night of the Battle of the Bands.I mean you absolutely killed it up there, you were spinning your drumstick's , flipping your hair, you looked like a total rockstar."

" I look like a total troll when I play the drums, the faces I make, not attractive. And I'm not that cool, it was my on stage persona.Apparently every musician needs one."

" No, the faces guys make when they play are absolutely horrible, like they always look like they just smelled something disgusting, but you, you looked super sexy. In fact, I had a dream about you that night."

" Really?"

" Yeah, it was a really good dream."

" That's, uh, sweet." I laughed.

" Can I tell you another secret?"

" Sure Steve."

" That night we played truth or dare, I prayed that you or I would pick a dare that had involved us kissing. I just, I just really wanted a reason to kiss you again.Nancy was so cold, so distant- your so warm , so full of emotion ,so passionate. I see it when you kiss Eddie, how you are so affectionate. I just wanted a piece of that. Every dare I wrote was a kissing dare, well except the banana one. I just wanted to feel fucking heat again, and I did when I kissed you."

I lifted my head up off his shoulder and saw tears forming in the corners of his eyes."Aww Steven," I pulled him close and put my arm around him. He laid his head in my lap and cried. It broke my heart. I rubbed his back with one hand and ran my fingers through his hair with the other. " You are my best friend Steve, I will give you all the love and affection I can as a friend." I leaned down and kissed his cheek. "You are so special to me, and Robin and Eddie and the shrimps. I know you are hurting right now but remember that you are super important to every one of us. We are all here for you." I gently turned his face up to mine. I wiped his tears."You deserve to find someone that isn't going to treat you like shit. You deserve love and affection, you shouldn't settle for anything less ok? Just take your time, don't rush into a meaningless relationship just for the sake of being in a relationship. Set you standards high Harrington." I felt like once I saw the tears fall it sobered me up a little. " Your not just a hot piece of ass with great hair, you're a human being with feelings that deserves love." I smiled down at him and ran my hand through his hair again." Your hair is so fucking soft."

He smiled at me." I have special shampoo and hair products I use."

" I could play with your hair all day."

" I would let you, it feels so fucking good."

He closed his eyes." This is what I want. Moments like this. This isn't too much to ask for right?"

" No, not at all." I twirled his hair around my finger.

Steve opened his eyes and stared up at me. I smiled down at him. He reached up and played with my curls, wrapping them around his finger. " Your hair is like silk."

" I don't use any special products, just regular shampoo. I'm not fancy like you."

He smiled." You don't need to, your hair is gorgeous, your skin is perfect too." He ran a finger down my cheek.

" I think you are still drunk.It's time for you to get some sleep."

" Maybe your right." He sat up so I could slide out from under him.

I took his pillow and laid it down on the couch, he rested his head on it. I stood up and got the comforter and unfolded it, draped over him. I knelt down beside him."Goodnight Harrington, sleep tight." I leaned down to kiss his cheek and was surprised when his soft lips met mine. It took me a moment to realize what was happening and to react. I pulled away, looked at him, eyes wide." Steve-"

" Veronica, I'm sorry. I don't know what got into me."

" It's ok-"

Steve sat up." Ronnie, I'm sorry. Please don't hate me."

" I don't hate you, I'm just processing." I put my hand on his shoulder. " It's fine, just get some rest. I'll see you in the morning."

" Veronica, are you sure you want me to stay? I crossed the line."

I sat next to him. " Steve, it's ok, really. We'll talk about in the morning. Don't worry ok? Just get some sleep."

" Alright. Goodnight." He searched my eyes for a minute then laid back down.

I got up off the couch and walked to my room and closed the door. I laid on my bed and stared at the ceiling for a while before finally dozing off to sleep.

*************************************

The next morning I awoke to a quiet knock on my bedroom door. I slow blinked, thank god I didn't have a hangover. " Come on in."

The door opened and Steve peeked his head inside. He looked rough, he definitely had a hangover. I motioned for him to come over and sit on my bed." How ya feeling big guy?"

" I feel like shit. I don't know what's worse my head or my heart." He sat down and ran his hand over his hand over his face. " I fucked up and I'm sorry. I shouldn't have kissed you. God, I hope I didn't ruin everything between us. I can't lose you Ronnie."

I sat up and put my hand on his. "Steve you didn't ruin anything. It was just a little kiss. We are still friends and will always be friends."

He let out a deep sigh." Thank fucking god." He dramatically flopped back on my bed and ran his fingers through his hair. " I don't know what got into me. "

" About a half a bottle of whiskey?" I laughed.

" Ugh,"

" I told you we would have been better off eating ice cream. " I whacked him with my pillow, he made an Oof, sound." Look Harrington, we were drunk, conversations got deep, there were lots of emotions. You were vulnerable and got wrapped up in the moment."

He sat up." You were so sweet to me last night. So comforting.I just hadn't felt genuine affection like that in a long time. Thank you."

" That's what friends do Steve. I am here for you with hugs for days if you need them. It's just the kiss-"

" I promise it won't happen again. I know it is you and Eddie forever. I would never, ever do anything to mess that up. Are you going to tell Eddie about what happened?"

" Of course I am going to tell him, we have no secrets."

Steve raised his eyebrows." He's going to beat my fucking ass! Especially since he specifically told me to keep my hands off!"

" He's not going to beat your ass. He's a lover not a fighter."

" I am fully anticipating at least a black eye when I get home."

I shook my head. " I'm going to have a conversation with him, it's going to be fine."

I swung my legs out from under the covers and got up." Why don't you go take a shower, I'll go get us some coffees at the shop-"

" Wait and I'll go with you. Fresh air will do me good."

" Ok. Now go make yourself presentable, you look like shit." I smiled.

He stood up and gave he a hug." Thank you." He rubbed my back and pulled away."Your not wearing a bra." He smirked.

" And you are being a pervert and maybe I should have my boyfriend beat your ass."

" No! No, I promise I will stop being a perv."

I smiled." Go make yourself pretty, I don't want you looking like a zombie if we happen to run into Melissa."

" You got it boss." He took off to get his duffel bag then went into the bathroom.

I quickly dressed then went out and grabbed the phone. I punched in Eddies number. Might as well get this over.

" Hello?" He answered his voice thick and husky from sleep.

" Good morning sexy. Did I wake you?"

" Good morning Princess, no you didn't wake me, Ive been laying here looking at pictures of you.I am surprised you up and functioning this early. How was last night?"

" It was interesting. Steve is recovering from a hangover this morning, I'm doing alright. Don't think I will ever drink whiskey again."

He laughed." That's harsh, he should have At least brought you top shelf tequila or something."

" Yuck. " I paused." So turns out drunk break up Steve is a little bit emotional, needed some comforting-"

" What are you getting at sweetheart? What happened?Did Harrington put the moves on you?" I could hear concern in his voice.

" So I held him and gave him a little pep talk-"

" I'm sure he ate that right up-"

" He was pretty upset Eddie."

" So what happened?"

" He kissed me."

" I'm going to fucking kill him."

" Your not. He was drunk, and emotional and vulnerable, give the guy a break."

" I will, I'll break his face."

" Jesus Christ Eddie. It was a peck, I pulled away and he apologized."

" He kissed you!"

" And we had a calm, rational conversation about it this morning, like adults. I called you and told you because I love you and we have no secrets, I will always be 100% honest with you.I didn't call you so you would freak out and get upset. I handled the situation, it is a non issue." There was a moment of silence." Eddie?"

" I'm sorry baby. I didn't mean to pop off like that. It's just natural instinct."

" I know your just being protective, and I love that about you. I feel the same way when you are performing and girls look at you all google eyed, I want to slap them. Please just let this go baby. It is not worth ruining friendships over."

Eddie sighed." Ok baby, if you consider the situation handled then I am ok with that, and I know you can take care of yourself Ronnie, I just want you to know that I have your back."

" I know Eds."

" I also want you to know that I absolutely trust you, and I am glad that you called me and we talked about it, even if I was a bit of a dick."

" You were just a little fired up. Just promise me you won't go after Steve when he gets back. "

" I promise. Now you need to promise me that if he tries that shit again you'll kick him right in the dick."

I laughed." I promise, karate kid style crane kick right to the penis."

Eddie laughed." God I miss you. I can't wait to touch you again."

" I know baby. One more week?"

" One more week, then I'm going to kiss every inch of-"

" Ronnie? Where are your towels?" Steve hollered from the bathroom.

" Hold on baby-" I put my hand over the receiver "in the closet!"

" He's such a man child."

" He was probably afraid he would find feminine products in there so he didn't want to look." I laughed.

He snorted." What a dork. I'm packing up some of my stuff. I can bring my guitar and amp right?"

" Absolutely. I have my dad's acoustic , maybe you could finally teach me how to play it?"

" I would fucking love that!"

" Me too. I can't wait. It's been a long 3 weeks baby."

" Tell me about it. I can't wait to pick you up and carry you to our bedroom throw you down on the bed and –"

The bathroom door opened and Steve walked out."Oh god is that Eddie?"

" Jesus Christ Steve! I'm trying to be sexy here and I can't finish a god damn sentence.!" Eddie hollered into the phone.

" Eddie said you get a free pass on the ass kicking this time but if you ever try to kiss me again he wants me to kick you in the dick."

" That sounds fair and reasonable to me Eddie! I'm sorry!" Steve hollered back.

" Well I feel like I am in the middle of a hollering match, so I am going to let you go baby. I love you so much !"

" I love you too darling. I will talk to you later."

" Talk to you later! Bye Pookie!" I hung up and flopped on the couch.

" So he isn't going to kill me?"

" He was but I talked him down from that ledge. I don't think he could actually beat you up-"

" He's pretty quick and wiry. You saw him punch Jason."

"Yeah."

" He had every intention of pounding that guy at the Hideout."

" I'm sure he could be pretty scrappy." I looked over at Steve," Your looking a little better now, feeling a little better?"

" Coffee will do the trick I think. Ready to go?"

" Absolutely! I'm going to get the biggest coffee they have."

As luck would have it we ran into Melissa at the coffee shop and I was able to introduce her to Steve. I thought there was a little spark but maybe it was just me being hopeful. She was so cute and so sweet and he seemed to think so too, I think she is just what he needs. I will have to chat with her at study group and see what she thought.

He was on his very best behavior the rest of the day and I enjoyed showing him around my new home town. We had a great time. When it came time for him to leave I knew I would miss his company, but then Eddie would be coming soon and my world would be complete again.

Part 2 of my long Analyis of the Hello Puppets midnight show trailer!

First and foremost, please check the prior parts for congruency and seeing other interesting details and stupid jokes I added to this:

Part 1

Here's a quick important note that you need to read first before diving into this long messy post:

If you see this TW this will signify a trigger warning. I'll try to give some space to avoid individuals who do not which to see it time to skip it. SAFE means that you can read this part ^^

SPOILERS!!! is a new addition to those who do not want to be spoiled over certain puzzles presented in the BETA. END!!! means they are done

Majority of pictures are from the trailer, others will be credited to the sources along with a link)

Heavily suggest that you watch the trailer first because we're gonna get spoilers

Without further ado let's continue!

Recap: I analyzed and gave silly commentary up to the trailer's start to Riley's ending introduction. To compensate here's a silly joke:

*Rileys threatens the player*

Game: hahahah CUT IT!

Well, ignore the red haired puppet who was clearly not trying to kill you. She just woke up and chose violence, let's meet the mom friend of the group!

*Cuts to Daisy*

Can we take a moment to appreciate how adorable Daisy's puppet is? She certainly looks like the sweetest and I really love her animation during this portion of the trailer. Also...how's that pie giving out smoke

Vending machine out of service. It's pointless, but it was distracting me :P

We also got MAPS!!!!!

And yes, each character level has their own map with their respective character. I also noticed the notes!

@sarilolla did point out during a quick sneak and peak videos that the official Hello Puppets account released, there were notes. They pointed out that we may have an ally

Here's one of the notes

The other one is hard to read but I figured out the message but I also noticed something as well.

I managed to see what it reads and it says "Just play along" I believe this is actually one of the puppets trying to trick ya into confusing the notes because the notes of our ally are in black not red. So the Handeemen are playing dirty in this!

This is the best picture I can get but it looks we are gonna get an exclusive game for each of the puppets

That is the best assumption of why we got Daisy's icon specifically, but this is also one of her levels

Also

That birthday cake was so distracting >:[

I love that Daisy's main puzzle is an oven and we get to see her pie :D

It's so cute!

She got a counter and pot. Nice detail and she certainly looks like a housewife (shoutout to the working housewives, you guys deserve some appriciation too)

At this point, Daisy now reveals her true colors but...

Can we take a moment to appreciate Daisy's traps?

The fact that she's using a cupcake as a way to-

*cupcake explodes*

H-how did that even-

Ok, that was actually creative

BUT

WHAT

THIS?!

Also

Angry B R E A D

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

"GIVE ME A HUG!"

Daisy aggressively being a mom is the most random thing I ever heard and I love it!

We then now move to Nick Nack.

Trailer: ah yeah, he's the artist one and he likes theater.

Jeez, Mort, no need to show that you got favorites!

#NickNackdeserveslove2022

I know I shared this before but

JJDJDJD the fact that Nick has statues of himself but buff it's just the most hilarous fact about him

Reminds me of squidward for some reason-

Back to the important stuff

It does look like we are going to get an exclusive mini game for each of the puppets

Irrelevant but

NICK'S CANADIAN?! (A South Park bad joke)

Oh no...

NOT THE MATCHING GAME! I NEVER GOT THAT STAR IN THE MARIO BROS MINI GAME! /j

Also, this game can predict the F U T U R E as Riley has her mask/j

Not a nitpick, actually. I'm not really bothered by it and I appreciate how the devs used as many resources as they could.

Ok, now let's get to another important detail for the game

I remember this type of puzzle for one of Sewingsilly's gameplay of the BETA version but I can't remember which part it was. It was similar but it was a Riley level, this is a Nick Nack level.

SPOILERS for the puzzle!!!

So the whole gimmick of this puzzle, the puppet you see in the middle of the box, is representing the puppet of the puzzle you are doing. (In Sewingsilly's vid, the hand puppet was holding a beaker to represent Riley, a character did not look like her at all. It appears that maybe we're goin to get a hand puppet similar to them.It took me a while to realize it looked like Nick) So this little bastard is asking that you become their best friend

Sounds easy enough, but apparently their friendship has a prize. Nice

So this character will be asking you to bring them three things. It;s all related to them and it's scattered around the level I believe.

I am not going to say what Riley's things were:

Because i don't want to give more spoilers

It might change for the game

After you give each of the character what they want they will give you off a price. It will depend on the number, but sadly I don't know what the final prize is because in the BETA there was a glitch. My best assumption

The puppet does glitch from time to time.

END!

Now, some random stuff

For those who know that I love Niley (Nick x Riley), y'all probably expect me to be squealing over the fact that for some reason you have to bring Nick a Riley picture in a heart.

I actually squealed over @dolly-royal and @justmystufff who are also other fellow shippers before this post. I decided to address it to let you guys know that I saw it to. I'm trying to keep this post neutral (but if you ship them too, feel free to squeal in the dms lol)

Anyways

P E A R

Also

Nick Nack wears eyeshadow better than any of us. How dare he!/j

"FATHER LOOK AT ME! LOOK AT ME!"

Poor Nick, he doesn't receive enough attention

"FATHER DON'T FLEE, LOVE ME!"

Nick is the embodiment of:

Daddy Issues~

We all knew it since the Demo's release last year, anyways let's get to some other stuff done!

So, this part is done because tumblr's limitations. I will dive into more on the next part lol

Nick....why you look as if you ate at Taco Bell?!/j

I actually told this joke to @official-crucified-mortimer (I'm just tagging my friends because I love them)

Also.

A very creeping painting of your puppet staring at you?

Put a spiderweb on it :D

Here are the parts

Part 1

Part 3

hi and also hello. may i please hear everything about seia i would like the seia breakdown please and thank you <3

seia breakdown!!!! seia my beloved <3

the short version is that seia is 95% of keldan's impulse control. long version under the cut

okay in my head i picture seia as being from like a mountain village whose primary economy is mining-based. this is almost completely irrelevant to the actual story but i planned out everyone's backstories like three years ago so you're getting it. seia's naturally smaller than most people from these mining villages tend to be but he was also more sick than the average kid (which did not help) so growing up he was sort of on the frail side. that being said there was absolutely zero like "gender role" expectation that he would ever have to work in the quarries, because his culture doesn't really have Gender the way others do, and thus don't have gender roles either; everyone just contributes what they can to make sure the household runs smoothly, which means seia grew up helping out with stuff like finances, gardening/animal tending if he had the energy for it, sewing/mending clothes/weaving, other stuff around the house that's less physical labor. (btw this cultural view of gender is also why seia's nonbinary; he literally just cannot be bothered with translating his experience for others, and the first person who spoke to him in another language assigned him he/him pronouns and seia was like "whatever".)

anyway. there's some imperial/war-related stuff that happens next. crown soldiers show up, "this land belongs to this nation now", and they ship off basically everyone who's still school-aged to boarding schools in the empire proper. (two notes: first, i haven't named like most of the places that are relevant to backstory. yes i've had this wip for years. move on. second, i am assuming you've heard of cultural genocide. that's what's happening here.)

seia ends up rising through the ranks so to speak and gets a lot of attention for his knack for languages. he ends up in service of the crown that kidnapped him (this is probably around age 16 or so), as a translator/interpreter, and after a couple years ends up sold/traded to the highest bidder (melati's father, the king of. yet another name i haven't thought up yet.) they use nicer words than "sold/bought", because "slavery is illegal", but i'm not going to pretend seia had any choice in what's happening.

he does use his essentially-free access to royal libraries to do a LOT of reading, both before and after the trade. he teaches himself a lot of stuff, including More languages and some "applicable" life skills. (read: forgery. he gets terrifyingly good at forging official documents. he doesn't use this until after he joins up with keldan, because he's afraid of what will happen if he gets caught, but with keldan he's a bit of a loose cannon lmao)

also. MOSTLY irrelevant to the story but seia has like one friend, who was the youngest son of the first king seia worked for. they made it work alarmingly well despite the power imbalance thing, and the prince teaches seia how to swordfight. seia later trades that in for a dagger, saying it's more his style, but in a pinch.... absolutely deadly. they keep in touch after seia gets traded off, they write letters to each other in varying languages and use code names. the prince's real name is kazik tho.

also also. working for melati's father and spending like 90% of his free time in the library, seia's seen her before and she's seen him. they've talked more than once and melati would even loosely call him a friend at this point in their lives. being a princess she doesn't really question the exact terms of his employment. it's not really malicious, it's just that in her mind, the palace is kind of the best gig anyone could hope for, and she has a daughter's trust in her father (for now) and believes he'd never hold anyone against their will. and while technically he's not holding seia prisoner, seia has nothing and no one on the outside, and nowhere to go, and a contract a mile long that he doesn't know the exact terms of but surely there's a clause in there about abandoning your post before your term is served (there is. seia ends up breaking it anyway).

anyway. seia meets keldan on a diplomatic trip to okskiy, where keldan lounges around the throne room despite his king's best efforts to get rid of him before the party starts. (this is like almost immediately post-aderyn-breakup btw). seia doesn't get much time off during the actual meeting/negotiations/dinner, but once everyone's drunk and happy seia gets to slip away from his interpreter role, and he and keldan make small talk for a while and seia commits his face to memory because it feels like he's the first (second?) person to ever actually look at seia. it's complicated.

they end up meeting again on seia's "home turf"; keldan's delivering something on behalf of his king, and seia's the only one who speaks a language keldan understands, so they get plenty of more-or-less one-on-one conversation time. call it bonding or whatever. later, keldan's wandering around the castle (read: snooping) and happens upon the king propositioning seia (this is compete chance here. keldan's the only person i know who's obnoxious enough to have even the opportunity to stumble in on this conversation), which seia does not want but can't exactly say no to without risking. yknow. his life.

the king fucks off w/ keldan's arrival (not that keldan understood what was being said exactly but the postures... expressions... yeah) to avoid suspicion (does not work) and keldan's like. "fuck that guy." seia replies "he's my king." keldan says "what if he wasn't though" and then gets to play white knight for seia for about thirty minutes (the time it takes them to get back onto keldan's ship) before keldan really starts to get to know seia and realizes he is WAY out of his depth here.

they're more or less business partners after that. it's weird because seia definitely is not considered part of keldan's "crew", but keldan's operation is able to expand thanks to the breadth of languages seia can speak, seia travels everywhere with keldan + has his own cabins on the ship that he never uses bc he's always in keldan's, they read each other's minds and gaze longingly when the other isn't looking, but if a crewmate asks whether they've slept together keldan is like "why would we do that". they're a hot mess. seia forges like 90% of keldan's documents, whatever he needs (the other 10% are, technically, legal), and literally asks for nothing in return. keldan's always putting gold coins in with the rest of seia's stuff or trying to slip him payment some other way. seia stashes his collection of inks and fancy pens and parchments under keldan's bed.

the really sticky part is that neither of them really talk about their pasts. granted keldan can't talk about his childhood without getting into stuff that would make him sound crazy ("turns out there is stuff below the continents" crazy), but neither of them know where the other is from, they don't communicate w/each other in either person's native language, seia doesn't even know keldan had a partner before him.

keldan's also a bit insane. so he gets all these random ideas for all kinds of things (business, ship repairs/additions, fanciful vacations, you name it) and then seia's the one who filters it down into something doable. half the time seia is then also the one who implements it, whatever it is. keldan will be like "lets do a vacation on one of those waterfall islands" and seia will be like "what if instead we just spend a couple weeks off in okskiy" and then also schedule that time off into their calendar. this is more or less because seia is wayyyy more organized but also a little bit because even tho keldan has the big ideas, he wouldn't actually be into them. he would hate the wet humid nature of the waterfall islands and seia knows that and talks him out of it, and keldan wants seia happy so he agrees readily when seia suggests okskiy instead. they make it work somehow and everyone's like "how have you not broken up yet" and they're like "broken what up?"

so. that's where they're at at the beginning of the story, and then aderyn and melati walk onto their ship as a unit and everyone collectively is like. "what the fuck" for a whole host of different reasons. the plot of sky sea is like 50% character-driven conflict in the sense that while aderyn and keldan are trying to reconcile their old history, aderyn's guilt, and keldan's anger, seia's also insanely jealous but doesn't understand why and almost flat out refuses to talk to keldan about it. aderyn and melati have the whole "we're only in this together because both our lives are in danger" on top of the whole "you said no one would know who you were" "how was i supposed to know that the one person who could possibly still be alive to recognize me would be on this boat" thing. seia and melati have a little bit of a guilt/anger thing happening too; it's sort of "logically i know it wasn't her fault but emotionally i need someone to blame and she should have known something was wrong". keldan and melati are pretty much the only pair NOT fighting, but they do bond over being generally obnoxious and high-maintenance. when aderyn and seia aren't trying to kill each other over extremely minor arguments that are actually metaphors for much bigger issues, they're complaining about "royals. ugh". keldan's crew wants to quit sooooo bad except that they also find the drama highly amusing. one guy on the crew is like 'man i always wanted to be part of a high-speed chase' and boy does he get his wish.

#.txt #ttotss #truly i have no explanation for what's happening here but i love you #seia is like. my darling my beloved. like i try not to play favorites but god.#also didn't mention this in the main post but i do want there to be some part of the story to involve seia having the chance to go home #and taking it only to realize he's been gone for so long and he's changed so much that he doesn't fit there anymore #like they would make space for him to fit if he wanted them to #but despite the drama and the danger he has something that makes him happy now that isn't a faded memory #home is an actual place (read: person) and not a concept he can never go back to #also untouched in the main post but im getting into it in the tags now: huge huge themes of sky sea are belonging and family #because it's me so of course they are #it's all about these misfits who have never fit in anywhere discovering that they fit with each other #despite their rough edges and tangled histories #or perhaps because of them!!#anyway. thank you for asking i'm kissing u on the mouth rn

Worthless - Chapter 20 - Part 1

*Warning Adult Content*

Asher

I woke up lighter than I've ever been.

I felt wonderful, a peaceful tranquility surrounding me like a blanket.

It took me a moment to come to my senses.

Images flashed in my minds, images of naked bodies intertwined in a embrace of passion.

My cheeks flamed when I realized it was my body doing those things, with Kade.

I gasped, sitting up as I searched for him, my body aching in protest.

I quickly calmed when I realized he wasn't there.

I put a hand to the place I knew he had fallen asleep, the sheets cold.

He hadn't been there for some time.

For some reason, my chest pained with that realization.

I quickly brushed it off, my mind becoming giddy as I remembered last night.

I've never been held in such away.

Yes, I've had previous sexual experiences, all of which make me shudder to remember but never one that felt, so right.

The feeling of Kade inside me, of his emotions reaching into the very depths of my being, was something unimaginable.

I'd never believed that that type of experience existed or at least, not for me.

Words spat at me from long ago worked their way into my mind but I ignored them, instead thinking of the murmurs of sweet nothings Kade whispered in my ear as we held each other tight.

I couldn't remember anything he had said, I was barely conscious but it still made me feel warm and safe as I drifted off.

I couldn't help but grin, pulling the sheets to my face and breathing in the scent.

It was Kade's but also mine.

I loved the mixture of the two, it was almost intoxicating.

I wanted to see him.

My heart racing with the thought of seeing Kade, I swung my legs over the bed.

Careful not to hurt myself, I hesitantly got up and fell on the floor, barely concealing a yelp.

I froze, the small wave of pain disappearing, leaving a faint, manageable ache.

It's been awhile since I've done anything sexual like this so I thought I would be in a lot of pain but it was nothing compared to before.

The grin found its way back on my face.

Everything with Kade was different.

Making sure I didn't have another fall, I stood, the sheet falling to the floor.

It occurred to me that Kade would probably not like me parading around butt naked, given his hounding during the first few days in this form.

I walked over to the dresser to pull out a pair of shorts and a shirt, stopping when I caught sight my body in a single mirror.

Red markings stood out on my normally pale skin.

My neck and shoulders were littered kiss marks, some of which were slightly purpled.

I could faintly see marks around my nipples as well.

The area at my hips were less prominent but I could see the print of Kade's hands clearly.

Filled with a light, happy feeling, I decided to ditch the shirt and go for just a pair low hanging shorts.

I practically skipped out of the room, the pain all but disappearing as I pictured Kade in my mind.

I'd find him and as he caught sight of me, his face would break out in a smile, warmth flooding into his eyes as he looked at me in the way that only he does.

He'd approach me, scanning me up and down as he looked at his handwork and take me into his arms, his head resting on top of mine as he ran his fingers up and down my back and I'd melt into him, falling deeper and deeper into whatever this was.

I rounded the corner, almost falling down as I ran into someone.

Dreading myself, I looked into the amused eyes of Thalia.

"Well, hello there Asher, fancy meeting you here."

She glanced at my markings, her face brightening before resuming eye contact.

"I'm happy for you two. Now you better go find your mate, he's been grumpy and I think seeing you will do him some good."

She sent me on my way with a smack on my butt, her laughter disappearing as I headed downstairs.

My smile was still present as I went looking for Kade, not bothering to track his scent or call him through the link.

I passed many pack members, proudly showing off my marks.

None of them commented on them but they all knew exactly what the marks were from, giving me a warm smile, sometimes with reddened cheeks or patting me on the back in congratulations.

I stepped outside, the sun warm on my half naked body even though it was winter.

It was rare we had such a nice day during this time.

It felt good, the warmth flowing over me.

I wanted to get down and lay in the grass, doze under the sky like I would in wolf form.

For the first time since I switched forms, I felt the desire to shift rise up.

It was odd.

I'd always resented both forms, the wolf for igniting my supposed father's rage and the human for adding fuel to the fire but now... now I felt at peace with myself.

Learning the truth, that that man wasn't my father and what he did was beyond wrong, changed my perspective drastically.

It was all because of the pack because of Kade.

I rounded the outside of the house, the back patio coming in sight and my eyes instantly zeroed in on him.

There he stood, the simple white shirt and a pair of jeans he wore hugging his body.

I felt it then, the need but not anywhere near the intensity of last night.

He must have felt it too because he glanced up suddenly, eyes locking with mine.

His gaze torn from mine to the marks and then back.

He hid his emotions almost instantly but I saw it.

For a moment I saw it and my heart seized.

It was sadness, guilt but more importantly, it was regret.

I mentally shook my head and made my way towards him.

No... Kade wouldn't be like that.

It's just my mind trying to sabotage itself.

Just nerves, that's all but I couldn't quell the nervousness I felt the closer I got.

There were a few of the pack around him.

They all gave me heartwarming smiles, only becoming brighter as they took in the evidence left behind of last night.

'Kade.'

He didn't look up.

'Kade.'

Still nothing.

My breathing became shallow.

'Um, Kade?'

He turned to talk to someone, I think his name was Wyatt.

The others were looking between us, confused.

'Please say something, Kade.'

"Put on a shirt."

I stopped, a few feet away, stunned for a moment.

'W-what?'

"Put. On. A. God. Damn. Shirt."

'Why? I always go shirtless.'

He glanced down at the marks before looking back at me.

"I don't want to see your body, looking like that."

I couldn't read his expression.

Everything was black.

I couldn't think, couldn't process.

I didn't realize I had ran until my feet were slapping against the hardwood floors inside the house.

The sound drew stares but I ignored them.

I didn't know where I was headed, just that I needed to be somewhere else.

I didn't care that I was probably running in circles.

I didn't want to speak to anyone.

I slipped into a small storage room, needing to use a little force to get the door open.

No one used it, there was dust on the few stacks of boxes and cobwebs in the corners of the ceiling.

I locked the door, pressing my back against it as I tried to control my breathing.

I overreacted.

I must have.

Kade wouldn't ever do anything bad to me.

He wasn't like 'him' but I also never thought that man could ever be so cruel either.

Similar words spoken long ago repeated themselves like a loop track from hell.

That man had not wanted to see me either.

My body slid down.

I brought my knees up, wrapping my arms around them and resting my head.

I wouldn't cry.

No matter what, I wouldn't show weakness.

I wouldn't show anything.

The last time I shifted and never shifted back.

I couldn't do that now.

Kade had seemed so happy when I'd gotten used to my human form again.

He might not like it anymore but I can't risk him hating me more than he might now.

The pain in my chest wouldn't go away though.

I hated it, the feeling.

Everything has been fine, more than fine.

How can things change so much?

I lifted my head, struggling not to whimper.

I'm interested in the Lila exposed au about your akumasona. What's that?

For those who don’t know my OC (self insert) akumasona Zoe Rapporte (The Enchanted Florist), but her family owns a flower shop that is pretty successful - think “This florist does the arrangements at the Grand Paris and for High Profile Events” - so she’s mildly acquainted with Adrien from some of those events. Maybe not friends, but like when you frequent a coffee shop so much that you learn all the staff’s name and they all remember you.

So Lila is not above dropping lots of money to sell her lies (hello Gabriel Collection Fox Necklace) and one of her lies to her mother is that Adrien is her boyfriend. And what boyfriend doesn’t send his lovely girlfriend flowers, especially one as well off as Adrien Agreste? And really, as long as his name is on the card when her mother accepts them at the door, that’s all that matters, right?

So Zoe takes note that once a week this prissy girl with a bizarre hairstyle comes in to place a rather pricey bouquet order under Adrien’s name and has it delivered to the same address that’s on the credit card bill - doesn’t take a genius to figure out this delusional weirdo is pretending a celebrity is sending her flowers weekly. It’s a little strange because Zoe could’ve sworn she saw on TV that this chick had done photo shoots with Adrien before and based on his Instagram she was his classmate, so it’s kinda concerning that she’s going this far to burrow her way into his life. Still, she’s dropping quite a bit of coin and it’s really none of Zoe’s business, yeah?

But then imagine there’s a class event - maybe a dance, maybe a teacher’s appreciation week, maybe an alumni reunion - that needs our favorite class representative and her deputy to order a large amount of flowers. And Adrien, ever desperate to do his part, takes it upon himself to help with the budget. And maybe Nino decides to come for no particular reason lol.

So the four walk into the Rapporte Flower Shop and Adrien is so excited to introduce his friends to one of the familiar faces from his VIP world. And he’s just so exuberant as he brags about his friends and is so wholesome and different from the put together boy Zoe would briefly meet at those stuffy events that this surge of sisterly affection makes her completely forget her usual “none of my business” attitude. She’s got to let him know what it going on behind his back, especially if there’s a chance that he has no idea what kind of girl “Mlle. Rossi at the fifth story walk up” was.

And who knows? Maybe this was a misunderstanding, a weird arrangement Adrien had with his secret girlfriend to make sure she gets exactly the type of bouquet she wants? Zoe recons she’s had stranger requests. Welp, no better way to clear the air than to just ask.

“Hey Adrien, you know there’s this weird girl that comes in once a week and has flowers delivered to herself under your name?”

Adrien paused in his rant about Nino’s music mixing skills (having already left Alya puffing her chest in pride and Marinette a red puddle of embarrassed goo) to stare blankly at Zoe. “I beg your pardon?”

“Oh yeah.” Zoe leaned into her palm, looking way too relaxed considering what she’d just dropped on him. “For, like, the two months at least. Always has us address her card ‘Distance Makes the Heart Grow Fonder, Ma Belle, from Your Loving Boyfriend Adrien Agreste’.”

“What the heck?!” Alya exclaimed from beside Nino who’s jaw was dropped in disbelief. “That’s crazy messed up. Adrien doesn’t even have a girlfriend, what does this psycho think she’s doing?!”

“Right? I don’t know who she thinks she fooling. What kind of boyfriend needs to sign his full name?”

“It is pretty weird.” Adrien said, rubbing his neck in discomfort. “But it’s not the strangest thing a fan has done. It’s not that big a deal, right?”

“Dude.” Nino started, staring at his best friend in mild horror. “Just because you don’t know this girl doesn’t make it ‘no big deal’.”

“Oh no.” Zoe pipes up again. “He knows her.”

“What?!” All of Adrien’s friend’s exclaimed. Even Adrien looked a bit shook by her admission.

Alya zipped over to the counter, leaning dangerously close to Zoe’s remarkably unfazed face. “What do you mean ‘he knows her’?! How do you know that?! This sounds like a creepy fangirl but you’re telling me she’s actually in Adrien’s life?!”

“I should say so. I mean, it was even on TV that she was modeling with Adrien and she’s made a few appearances on his instagram.” Zoe brought out her phone, casually thumbing open Instagram. “I would’ve just ignored it, but if she’s going around pretending she’s dating Adrien then he has the right to know.”

“Modeling with....and you said on his instagram...?”

“Are...” Marinette piped up, voice dripping with trepidation. “Are you talking about Lila?”

“Marinette,” Alya gave her friend a withering look. “Just because you don’t like her doesn’t mean you can just accuse her of-”

Zoe cut her off, flashing her phone screen at the group to present a photo, having found the image she was looking for: a brunette with a straight fringe and her forelocks in twin tails leaning possessively over an uncomfortably smiling Adrien.

“Yes, Mlle. Rossi! I’d recognize that crazy hairstyle anywhere.” She turned the phone back to look at it herself. “Pft, Adrien, what’s with this caption? ‘Lila insisted I take post this picture?’ Yikes, man, learn to say no.”

Alya waved her hands in front of her, eyes scrunched closed in disbelief. “Hold up, hold up, hold up. You have GOT to be getting this twisted. Lila wouldn’t do something that like this, that’s just...wrong!”

“I mean, this is definitely the girl I was talking about.” Zoe said slowly, raising one eyebrow at Alya’s response. “And Rossi is the name on the bill. What exactly am I ‘getting twisted?’“

“Because!..Because Lila just wouldn’t!”

“Yeah!” Nino shouted from behind her, shaking himself out of the stupor this whole situation left him in. “She said she wasn’t into Adrien like that!”

Zoe snorted. “And you believed her?”

“W-well yeah, why would she lie about that...?”

“You guys are so cute. And definitely need to watch more True Crime shows.”

“What-?”

“Sorry Adrien.” Zoe lofted over Alya’s shoulder, cutting off another defensive quip. “I know she was your friend. I just wanted to make sure you knew.”

“Ah, no, she’s not really- I mean, I’m not that surprised to be honest.” Adrien offered weakly.

“It sounds right up her alley.” Marinette growled, fingers digging into her crossed arms.

“What...” Nino and Alya turned to their friends, confused and anxious. “What are you talking about? This..this is Lila we’re talking about!”

“The same Lila who got Marinette expelled?” Adrien stated, face grim and tired.

“That was rescinded, it wasn’t her fault-”

“The same Lila who sent everyone in Adrien’s contact list picture of her kissing Adrien?” Marinette ground out, aggravated.

“I mean, that was weird, but I’m sure she didn’t mean-”

“The same Lila who got my bodyguard and Natalie in trouble with my dad?”

“Or maybe the same Lila who stole Adrien’s dad’s book and threw it in the trash?”

“She did WHAT-?!”

“I-I fished it out for you!”

“Wait is that how you knew about Lila-”

“Wow.” Zoe whistled, again cutting the group off. “What a class act. Sounds like a great friend you got there, Adrien.”

“Oh trust me.” Adrien growled, eyes never leaving Marinette who steadfastedly refused to look at him. “After this we’re NOT friends.”

Alya held her head with one hand, staring at the ground. “Wait, wait, this...this can’t be right, Lila isn’t...she wouldn’t do this, she wouldn’t, she’s...cool! And nice! And-! She just can’t!”

Zoe cocked her head toward’s Alya, leveling her with a patient stare. “Well, then what is she doing?” Alya looked up blankly at her, prompting her further. “The truth of the matter is that Lila Rossi comes in once a week, and has been for at least two months, buying flowers to be delivered to her own address (which I know because it matches up to the address on the card with her last name on it), but dictates that the card say it was sent by Adrien. If she’s not faking that Adrien is sending her flowers, what is she doing?”

“I...I don’t...” Alya floundered. They were just supposed to order some flowers, how did the day turn like this?!

“You’re an investigative reporter, right? What’s that old Sherlock Holmes saying? ‘Once you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, no matter how improbable, must be the truth’?”

Alya leaned into Nino, staring out at the shop, searching for something to make some sense. She thought Lila was nice, was her friend, was everyone’s friend! But this stunt with Adrien...what does it even mean...?

Everyone looked towards the employee door as footsteps could be heard approaching. A moment later Tama, Zoe’s younger sister, stepped into the shop, pausing at the door when she realized five pairs of eyes were staring at her. She looked over the customers, taking in Marinette’s slight glower, Adrien’s tight jaw, and Nino and Alya’s devastated posture.

“Soooo, are you here to buy some bouquets?”

Read your Jegulus oneshot and am IN LOOOVEE! Do you have any Jegulus fic recs, by any chance?

Oh my word, that's so sweet! And um hello yes of course I do! Here are some of favorites.

by Thealmostrhetoricalquestion (~6k, rated M)

James picks the losing side of the war, and falls on the battlefield. The fae sweep him up and take him home, intent on keeping him captive, but one among them has doubts. And hopes. And a little bit of love to give.

by justprompts (~2k, rated T)

James Potter is seventeen when he realises that he's in love with Regulus Black.

you don't have to save me (but would you run away with me)

by im_still_tryin_to_find_it (~13k, rated T)

There are four perspectives when Regulus Black ran away from his home. Euphemia Potter, who healed the boy the best she could while dealing with memories of the last time a boy showed up on her doorway bloody and bruised. Sirius Black who hasn't talked to his brother in years. James Potter who last saw the boy happy and healthy, and the boy who loves Regulus more than anything on this earth. And finally, Regulus Black himself who's dealing with his entire world shifting.

don't blame me, love made me crazy

by coupe_de_foudre (~15k, rated T)

“Whatever, gorgeous. Just don’t forget about us lowlifes when you end up on the cover of Seeker Weekly.”

It’s only when Regulus’ eyes widen, spluttering in response to James, that James even realises what he said.

Oh…no.

What’s worse is he doesn’t even regret it. Not when Regulus is blushing furiously like he is right now, because all James can feel is an odd sense of pride that he was the cause of that adorable pink flush now high on Regulus’ cheeks.

For Now You Love Me

by orphan_account (~14k, rated G)

It just sort of happens. The way it spills out at dinner. "I'm dating James Potter." Sirius, of course, refuses to believe James and Regulus could ever be a thing. And he's determined to find out the truth.

words upon my skin

by rxgulus (~13k, rated T)

James Potter often lamented his soulmate mark. His best friends had the perfect marks, resulting in a picture perfect romance. It wasn't as if he intended to insult his soulmate, but the words inked upon his collarbone did not inspire confidence that their first meeting would go well.

But, in all honesty, it's not James' fault that his soulmate is so tetchy about being called short.

Ok so this is the third time that I'm sending you an ask tonight. (or is it night time in your country?) I'm being annoying right now but whatever. So I've been cackling about those salt fics you wrote because they are just amazing. I have a request, though it is up to you to write it or not. So, can you write a salt fic where someone got an interview with Ladybug (probably Aurore) and then they ask her why they replaced the old heroes like Rena Rouge, Carapace and etc. and LB is just like I don't work with dumb shits or somethin'. Then there is also a new Black Cat (Probably Luka, Felix, or Damian) because Adrien here is an asshole and this fic is saltier than salt water. Then LB also insults Alya's blog and their school. Those foolish mortals get some lawsuits and the rest is up to you. (This request is probably messed up since it's already midnight here and I can't sleep.)

You're never annoying, I just apologize that it took me so long to get to you. I do hope you don't hold it against me, darling.

A one on one interview with Ladybug was basically unheard of if you weren't the Ladyblog or Nadja Chadwick. Ladybug had made it firm that she wasn't a celebrity, she was a hero. She wasn't there for clout, for attention, for fame or fortune. She just wanted to keep Paris safe.

That's was Aurore admired about her. And why she felt queasy as she sat across from the heroine, who had given her of all people an interview. But she got ahold of herself, taking deep breaths as the cameraman began counting down. And when he hit 'one', she put on her best smile and straightened in her seat.

"Hello Paris! Welcome back to 'Latest Buzz'! I am your lovable host, Aurore Beauréal. Today I am here with a very, very special guest, our very own heroine of Paris; Ladybug!"

Ladybug beamed right at the camera, but gave a shy little wave, giving away the nerves she obviously had.

"Now, Ladybug, I'm so glad you requested to be on the show. You know, I initially thought I had misheard when Estelle told me. Usually you're not big on personal interviews." Aurore gave her full attention to Ladybug, but keeping the bright, friendly smile and perfect posture.

"Well, I tried a few times actually. But when I did, none of them were really great experiences." Ladybug admitted and both girls immediately thought of that disastrous Face-to-Face interview. It left a bitter taste in their mouths. "My issue is that misinformation has been spread around a lot recently. It's made me realize that I need to find more trustworthy sources."

"Ladybug. I vow on my integrity as a host and Estelle's reputation as a journalist that we are people who research facts. We don't ambush our guests, we respect them." She said, placing a hand on her heart. Ladybug saw an honesty in her eyes that she hadn't seen in such a long time. It honestly made her feel.. Respected. "Now, Ladybug.. We both know you have a lot of fans. A lot of admirers. False information can be spread so easily these days, which sources specifically are you telling people to avoid?"

"Well.. With Face-to-Face, I found that I was entirely ambushed in that interview. I wanted to speak about my hero work, but instead Nadja kept trying to needle her way into my personal life. That picture she had shown in largely out of context; when Dark Cupid attacked and Chat Noir was under his spell, it was the only way to get him free."

"Yes, I remember watching that. I'll be honest Ladybug, I felt bad for you." Aurore bit her lip, but smiled a bit when Ladybug nodded. "I mean, Chat Noir wasn't helping either. He seemed to be trying to push this narrative forward that you two are a couple."

"And we're not!" Ladybug burst out before she could stop herself. Everyone in that studio could hear the utter stress and frustration in her voice. "I've begged and begged Chat Noir to stop with the flirting, the 'telling people we're dating', everything! I just wanted him to focus and he couldn't seem to do that!"

"Is that why you replaced him? Because of his slacking off and refusing to take anything seriously?" Aurora sat up an bit straighter, her eyes going wide.

".. Not exactly, no. It was a bunch of issues that eventually piled up and boiled over." Ladybug made some gestures with her hands, trying her hardest to find the words but just letting out a long and pained sigh in the end. "I do enjoy my new partner now. He is more serious, more stable. I know he won't go off and pout if I deny something he wanted. I needed an entirely new team, as a matter of fact."

"Well I am going to say, on behalf of everyone here, that we're glad. We swear on our integrity as journalists that if such rumours were to ever surface again, we will do our proper research." Aurore beamed and many of the staff and crew behind the cameras nodded and gave Ladybug their thumbs up. Honestly, it warmed Ladybug's heart to see such support.

When had been the last time someone had supported her like this? Sure, her parents supported her, but her friends..? Her peers? No, none of them had supported her in a long time.

"Speaking of research, I'd say to stay away from the Ladyblog." It burned to say it but it had to be said. Alya had crossed so many lines it wasn't even forgivable at this point. She had gone too far, had betrayed too many.

"Wait, what?" Aurore nearly jumped out of her seat but quickly composed herself, taking a deep breath. "Pardon me Ladybug, but the Ladyblog has been a vital source of information since the very beginning."

"And I'm not denying that!" Ladybug quickly held up her hands, her eyes desperate now. "But please let me explain. The Ladyblog was amazing in the beginning, but like all things, it started to go astray. It was things like trying so hard to find out my identity. Trying to push that narrative of that whole superhero couple thing.. Ladyblogger Alya Césaire has proven time and time again that she is not trustworthy. I mean, I thought she was my biggest fan. Why does she keep pushing my words aside?"

Many people who watched the interview would agree. If you idolized someone, respected someone, truly looked up to them.. Why would you push aside their words, their wishes to try and push the narrative you're so convinced is true, but isn't there?

"And don't get me started on the whole Lila Rossi craze she seemed to be on now." At Ladybug's mention of Lila Rossi, both Estelle and Aurore had to keep from rolling their eyes. They knew all about the girl.

"You speak as if you are quite frustrated, Ladybug. What an odd reaction to your best friend." Aurore leaned forward a bit in her seat. Everyone else got to the edge of theirs. Ladybug only shook her head, looking utterly defeated.

"That's the thing, she isn't my best friend." It took everything to keep from satin that she hated her, that she had taken away her friends and her life. "The only times she's met Ladybug is when she's been akumatized, which has been around six or seven times at this point. And the other things she's claiming are so outlandish! Saving Jagged Stone's kitten from a airport runway? Clara Nightengale stealing her dance moves? And the Ladyblog just posts it out there, claiming every single story is true. I'm just scared that people are taking this one hundred percent seriously. That's why I had to drop Rena Rouge and Carapace from the team as they believed Lila Rossi over me. They didn't even try to confirm these rumours! And it hurts to think that one day, someone will take Lila's words seriously and get hurt. What if she says it's safe to dip strawberries in bleach? Or tells someone that she found a way to tame some kind of wild animal? Someone would get hurt because they believe her story and try it out for themselves!"

"My goodness, I can definitely see how that is a problem. Misinformation is very easy to spread thanks to the internet, so you being worried is a very relatable thing." Aurore nodded, then tilted her head ever so slightly. "Ladybug, do you know anyone who has taken her word seriously? This is besides the Ladyblog of course."

Ladybug closed her eyes briefly, mentally debating with herself before finally giving in. These things needed to be said.

"Collège François DuPont. Now I wasn't there personally, but I heard about this situation and looked into it. The entire situation was appalling. Apparently a student was found to have cheated, assaulted another student, and commited thievery. But the thing that stuck out is only one person saw her do all of these things; Lila Rossi. No investigation was done, no questioning other students. This student was then expelled immediately. Her teacher and her principal didn't even give her a chance. And from what people have been saying, Miss Rossi's behaviour is actively encouraged in that school. She misses countless days, no, months of school, claiming she's traveling. But when she was supposedly in Achu, doing whatever it was she was claiming with Prince Ali, I was fighting her akuma here in Paris on Heroes Day!"

"I was at school the day that happened. I knew the student that happened to. They're the nicest person in that school! Never a bad thing to say about anyone, always willing to help! I agree with you on how things were handled, it's a level of incompetence that is baffling." Aurore's hands slowly curled into fists as she remembered it all. She slowly shook her head. "The principal, their teacher, their class who backed up Rossi. It must have hurt them so much, made them feel so alone."

"That's why I want people to be more careful with what information they take as fact. It's so important, because stuff like that can lead people to a desperate place. They feel alone, like the entire world is against them. I wouldn't have let the principal and the teacher get away with that gross negligence in their jobs." Ladybug leveled her gaze directly to the camera. "People of Paris, please listen to what I am saying. I am here to be a hero, to protect you from the terror of Hawkmoth and to defeat him. But please, do not be like Principal Damocles, do not be like that teacher and her class at DuPont. Do your research, look up your facts. Do not let a liar lead you to do something dangerous and hurt yourself as well as others. Respect each other, talk and be honest. I swear on my life that I shall do the same. You are the people I swore to protect and I love. I am saying this all to protect you. And I'll hope you'll all forgive me for not protecting you sooner."

...

The interview rocked Paris. Ladybug speaking so openly about her frustrations, about the discrepancies in the Ladyblog and Lila Rossi had many people double checking the sources of everything they learned from that blog.

Alya could barely show her face as she made her way though the school hallways. Her reputation as a journalist had gone down the drain. People had basically started boycotting her blog, harrassing her, or trash talking her on other forums and sites. Even a lot of news outlets picked this up.

What hurt the most from that interview last night was Ladybug's words towards her, both as Rena Rouge and as Alya. Surely the heroine had to be mistaken, she had never beytrayed Ladybug! And that Oblivio incident, it was just to show Chat Noir and Ladybug that they were meant to be together!

Her family was upset with her. No, upset was too tame of a word. They were pissed.

"I can't believe she lied to us.."

"Well what do you expect from someone who keeps harrassing Ladybug?"

Alya flinched when she heard the whispers and rushed into Miss Buster's class. The entire class was there, all seated, all looking utterly miserable. Many of them looked as if they had been crying all night. A lot like she had.

"W-where's Miss Bustier?" Alya asked when she eyed the empty desk. Many of her classmates shot her glares, but didn't say anything about the interview last night. After all, they had no room to talk.

"She and Principal Damocles are with the school board now. We're getting a new teacher." Adrien was the one that spoke up. He looked utterly miserable. So unlike his usual self.

"Lila isn't coming back. She was pulled from school when her mother found out what happened." Alix muttered from her seat, arms crossed and shoulders hunched.

The class went quiet as they all internally contemplated how things had gotten like this. Their eyes focused on the door when it abruptly opened and Marinette came strolling in, carrying a box.

"Good morning everyone!" She said brightly, pretending not to notice the downcast expressions on their faces. She set the box on the teacher's desk before she turned towards them. "Oh? What's wrong everyone?"

".. Did you not watch the interview with Ladybug on 'Latest Buzz'?" Alya stared at Marinette, a bit dumbfounded by her friend's lack of awareness of the situation. She had been expecting Marinette to rush in with support and a fiery vengeance against those who had humiliated her best friend, maybe even a fresh pastry. But instead she was greeted with empty hands and a cheerful hello?

"Oh, well I haven't really had the time to watch much television. I mean, with my transfer papers, needing to plan out my new schedule with all of those new classes. Busy as a bee, that's me!" Marinette just beamed, giving Adrien a playful wink that had his stomach churning.

"Wait, transfering?" It was Rose that spoke up, her large eyes seeming impossibly large now. "Transfer what?"

"To my new school, of course." Marinette giggled and clasped her hands together. "I start on Monday."

"New school?!" Alya was on her feet and rushing towards Marinette. The others quickly followed, crowding around her. "What do you mean new school?! When did you ever say you were going to a new school?"

Marinette blinked, as if stunned, then tilted her head ever so slightly.

"I told you all last week, don't you remember?" Marinette tapped her lower lip, seeming to be wracking her brain before she abruptly snapped her fingers. "Oh! I forgot, you all were deep in conversation with Lila about her upcoming event with Jagged Stone and Clara Nightengale. You know, the one she said she'd be attending with Ladybug, since they're such good friends. Did she ever say how it went?"

All of the students shifted uneasily, suddenly seeming to refuse to meet her face.

Alix murmured something so barely audible, Marinette held a hand to her ear and leaned closer.

"I'm sorry, what was that?"

"Lila was lying to us!" Alix snapped as her cheeks went a flaming red.

"About everything! She never knew Jagged Stone!" Juleka spat out in fury.

"Or Prince Ali!" Rose sniffled.

"And she wasn't friends with Ladybug? They were barely acquaintances!" Alya wailed out as tears welled up in her eyes.

But Marinette hardly reacted the way they were expecting. She just gave them a small smile and nodded.

"Oh, yeah. I know."

Alya sucked in a breath sharply.

"You knew..? But why did you never..?"

"Oh Alya, you silly forgetful thing. I told you the day she returned from her long 'trip', remember? I told you she was lying." Marinette gave Alya a smile that said 'oh you silly thing'. "But you told me that I should really check my sources. And I got tired of trying to bring up any lies, since that was always your response. So I decided to just stop. I mean, since you're such an inspiring, honest journalist you must double and triple check every source you come across and found every story to be true!"

Alya flinched and looked away, feeling the churning feeling in her gut again. No, the Ladyblog had been the only source for the stories. The. Only. One.

"And I'm sure all of you knew what you were doing! I mean, it makes sense; trusting the words of a complete stranger over someone you've known for a while now. Some of you since we were in diapers!" She focused her gaze on Nino and Kim, who had the grace to at least look ashamed.

"Marinette, you really should-" Adrien began, reaching out for the girl, but was cut off by her clapping her hands together.

"But it's alright! I decided that fighting with you all wasn't worth it, so I took Adrien's advice and took the high road! Don't bother exposing Lila, she isn't hurting anyone!" Marinette announced brightly, giving her hands a little wave.

The temperature in the classroom dropped by several degrees.

".. Adrien, she's kidding, right?" Nino glanced over at his friend, his eyes pleading for him to deny it all. But the sight of the blood draining from the model's face and the sweat starting to bead at his forehead told him everything he needed to know. "Dude.."

"How could you?! You knew this entire time and didn't even try to tell me?!" Alya rounded on Adrien, fury in her eyes.

"Now, now, don't get mad at Adrien. I'm sure he knew you all were going to do you research. Besides, it's not like this did anything bad for anyone." Marinette pressed a hand to her cheek, still grinning. "I mean, it's not like you all took her advice without doing any research. You didn't try the things she suggested without actually checking them out to be true, right? No one lost any scholarships or job opportunities. No one's relationships were ruined. No one was hurt."

The nauseous feeling spread to all of the class as the reality of everything caught up with them.

"I'm sure everything will go back to normal, right? I mean, I'm sure that that woman from the education bureau isn't here to fire Damocles and Bustier for their severe neglect in their duties. Expelling me with the most mediocre and shaky proof. Surely that's a school I should feel safe in! That I should be proud to be a part of. But alas, my preparations for my new school are already done, so oh well."

Marinette shrugged and adjusted her purse strap.

"Anyhow, I wish you all luck with the amazing things Lila has helped you to do! I know it must have been worth ignoring me and convincing me I was crazy. With all of the free time I've had, with you guys practically replacing me with Lila in the group, I've had tons of time to spend with my boyfriend."

"Boyfriend?!" Alya's eyes went owlishly wide as she gaped at Marinette. "But what about Adrien?!"

"Oh Alya, I fell out of love with Adrien forever ago." Marinette shook her head in an almost patronizing way that had Alya's cheeks burning with embarrassment. They didn't even pay attention to Adrien's noises of surprise. "I mean, you claimed I was jealous of Lila getting close to Adrien, that I should let the jealousy go. And you know what? You were right! So I decided Adrien wasn't worth the stress, the embarrassment.. I mean, I couldn't even talk to him straight. I thought he was the most perfect guy in the world! Goodness, did I learn my lesson!"

She giggled as if she found the entire thing amusing. She then beamed at the class.

"Well, ta-ta! I need to get back home and make sure everything is ready to go. I wish you all the best, I really do!"

They all watched, shellshocked as Marinette breezed out of the classroom like it was nothing. Like she wasn't leaving her friends, her school, her life behind. And they all would wonder exactly how badly they screwed up, if she could walk away do easily, without a care.
