when a kid who experienced physical and emotional abuse, and grew up around substance abuse and untreated mental illnesses, tells you that someone is dangerous and a threat, especially to someone who is vulnerable and unstable themselves, idk maybe trust his instincts?

A König x reader where the reader gives off scary dog privilege.
Like at a McDonald’s, König will stand behind them, even if he’s like a MOUNTAIN compared to the reader and the reader will be like “HE asked for no pickles >:(“
Idk think it would be cute if the reader would help König out in social situations where he would be uncomfortable.
If König doesn’t feel like talking the reader redirects the conversation to themselves so König can just listen.
Pairing: König x reader
Summary: König feels better after meeting you.
"We"
He didn’t date. Dating was exhausting, humiliating, and daunting for König. A series of awkward silences followed by stupid questions, that seemed to be in constant loop.
“What do you do?”
“Where are you from?
“Why are you so quiet?
He was always too quiet, too shy, for women. Too soft, too detached with men. It’s like he couldn’t be perfect for either.
It was worse when he thought they were having a good time and König, already filled with nerves and anxiety, had ordered his meal wrong.
“Why didn’t you ask to have it without mushrooms?”
“Why don’t you ask them if that's not what you ordered?”
As if it were easy. They looked at him with stupidity like he couldn’t just do it.
Second + third dates were then followed by 
“I’m not asking them to switch it, that's your meal.”
“You’re a big boy, use your voice.”
Small jabs towards him because of his height and build, that he wished he could just push himself to do it but he didn’t want to add an extra burden to the waiter or crew in the back.
“It’s fine, I'll eat it.”
Later coming to realize at the end of the date that he wasn’t for “them.”
“It’s not me, it’s you, I just don’t see it working out.”
Until he met you.
You weren’t looking for anything, as a matter of fact you just wanted to decompress from the day, have a small get together with new and old friends, but lots of things changed that day. 
As you went around introducing yourselves, König said hi, but didn’t really put much input into the group. He seemed to be making himself smaller, fading away behind the group of people. He seemed uncomfortable.
You approached him— A small shiver from his side, mentally preparing himself knowing the lines of—
“WHY aren’t you talking?”
“How tall are you?”
“Why aren’t you drinking?”
“Why are you so quiet?”
However it wasn’t like that at all. You did most of the talking. Just asked for small input from him. He was so taken back by how comfortable you made him. You made talking to new people easy and by the end of the night it was you asking him on a second date. 
He nodded, dumbfounded. “A second date?”
A small shiver again, maybe this time it was different?
*
The second date, at some small diner nearby, you take the lead on talking again. You think it was perhaps due to your nerves, you had become a chatterbox.
“So why the military?”
“Uh— personal choice.”
Small silence as you chewed on the appetizer in front of you. You wide eyed, trying to not say 
“Well that explains the haircut.” so instead you said,
“Must be lots of traveling huh?” You continued, listing places you wanted to visit and asking if he had ever been there.
Relief pooled inside him. What was your motive behind this?
When it was time to place the order, König’s nerves had bundled inside of him again that he forgot to mention “no black olives.”
His dish was placed in front of him.
He looked concerned, like he was in for a long night of picking them off his meal, then bombarding him with questions of “why didn’t you just ask?”
You saw the concern on his face.
“Is everything alright?”
“Yeah.”
“Why aren’t you digging in?”
“Ah… I said no olives but it’s no big deal.”
It was a big deal and you called the waitress over.
“I’m sorry we said no olives”
“Oh! I’m sorry!” The waitress flushed and ran away with the plate.
“Here” you said, so calm, “you can have some of mine while we wait.”
How effortless you did it. How were you so good at this?
“I hate when I do that. I can’t have cilantro because it tastes like soap.” You laughed and continued to pick at french fries in front of him.
God you were adorable.
He was sure he wasn’t going to see you again, thinking that maybe you thought he couldn’t speak up for himself, or the conversation ran too dry.
You however kept pushing yourself in, being his voice when he couldn’t speak.
“We said—
‘No olives’ 
‘No pickles’
‘This isn’t what we ordered’
Relief washing over him that you took it upon yourself when he had made the mistake ordering.
How you used “we” as opposed to “he” and he really liked that you didn’t single him out. He could melt. Was there finally someone who could lessen the burden of his anxiety?
Dinner dates went from bi-weekly to weekly. Then it was just easy. It was a no-brainer being with you. 
You never once thought he was too shy, or too quiet, too soft, or too detached. You didn’t question things between you two, you just took the lead in conversations with people, often checking in with König for a small part in it. You knew the right amount to get out of him.
You took the burden of first time conversations. You had started ordering for the two of you, knowing what he liked and didn’t like. König felt lighter, felt better that someone was here for him and opposed to him.

mdni. not proof read.
FREAK p.t 2
switch! oliver quick x dom! M! reader
warnings: degradation, name calling, smut, hair pulling, biting, mean reader , making out, over the clothes touching
Tumblr media
Oliver had been eyeing me all night since I arrived at the pub. Who does he think he is? He’s only around because Felix decided to befriend the little freak. Farleigh and I were supposed to meet up with Felix at the pub after class. But there he was again, like a leech attached to Felix. Oliver.
“Felix!..Oliver.” Farleigh said as we approached the table. Farleigh sat next to Felix, leaving me to sit next to Oliver. Fantastic. “hello..” I glanced at Oliver. He glanced at me muttering out a small hello, god can’t he just speak up? I rolled my eyes, trying my best to ignore his stupid glances towards me.
As we started to part our separate ways after the pub, I began to walk back to my dorm the long way. But I had this nervous feeling someone was watching me. My steps slowing down before I came to a halt, turning around only to see a figure horribly hiding behind a large tree. I know that figure from anywhere. Oliver. What now? He’s moved on from Felix to me? what a freak! “I can see you. I know it’s you Ollie” I yelled out, seeing him visibly flinch at my voice made me feel something. He stayed still and silent before revealing himself. “why are you following me?” I asked as I walked up to him, he looked startled as if I were in the wrong to ask that. “I..um..you forgot your cigarettes at the pub” Oliver finally muttered out. “Cigarettes? you’re following me like some creep over cigarettes?” My tone was harsh and he knew it, there was no way he could escape the truth now. Oliver dug through his pocket fetching out a packet of cigarettes, they were crumpled up, but they were my cigarettes.
We stood there in awkward silence as I snatched the packet from his hand. “Why couldn’t you return it like a normal person?” Asking as I rolled my eyes, seeing him shrug. “I was but you clearly don’t like me..” Oliver said looking at me. I laughed in his face, “clearly. you know why i don’t like you?” stepping closer to him I was now backing him up against the tree he was hiding behind. “No?” Oliver said as his back pressed up against the tree. “Because you’re a little freak! a no good for nothing oxfam scholarship boy” the words seethed out of me like hot lava, I was ripping into him and he took it. Seeing him stand there and not react to anything I was saying made me angry. How dare he? My hand shot up, gripping the side of his hair tightly, pulling it roughly to the side. His face contorted into pain, god did he look gorgeous like that…
“You’re a nothing. A lowlife. I don’t know what Felix sees in you” My words cut deep into him like a knife, his face now stone cold. I smirked loving the feeling of him completely helpless under me. “What? Can’t talk now?” I said with another harsh tug at his hair. He hissed in pain, “For someone who hates me so much…you do love calling out my name at night” Oliver said with a stupid smirk growing on his face, I was fuming. I let his hair go, pinning him against the tree, my breath heavy as he just let me do this. “you know nothing about me” Oliver laughed as he looked at me, “of course I do..i know everything..how you jerk off, calling out my name when no one’s in your dorm..how you look at me like you want to eat me alive” He was right. He did know me. I didn’t know what else to do, he had the upper hand here. “But knowing you, you’d never act on those feelings, no, you’re just as pathetic as i am” Oliver said with a laugh.
He’s wrong. I wasn’t a pathetic low life like him. “You’re wrong.” I said, his face turning to confusion at my words. I pressed my lips against his roughly. Oliver kissed me back, our lips dancing with each other. Hands roaming all over each others bodies forgetting we’re still outside. I pulled back a little, biting at his lip. “Still think I wouldn’t act on it Ollie?” Oliver laughed, “I guess I was wrong” “very wrong.” My hand grasped his hair again, pulling his head back as my lips ravaged his neck. Soft moans came out of his mouth. God he sounded wonderful. Biting and sucking on his neck. felt like ecstasy, feeling him squirm as I bite harder than the last bite. My hands roam down to his clothes cock, palming at it, feeling him buck his hips upwards, his moans growing with every touch. “Fuck..” Oliver moans out, as he clings to my shirt. Pulling away from his neck, i glance down at the ranging boner he has, smirking, “someone’s excited” I tease as he rolls his eyes. “Shut up, just touch me” Oliver begs looking up at me. Letting go of him, I step back away from him. “sorry I’ve got an exam tomorrow, later Ollie” I say walking away, giving him a wave. He glares at me as I walk away walking back to my dorm. Oh how fun this will be.

Safest in your arms pt 5
previous chapter || next chapter || series page
Pairing: Georgia miller x fem!oc
Summary: sophomore sleepover isn’t as lame as Georgia and Samantha thought.
Warnings: (18+) MDNI cursing, drug use, underage drinking, age gap relationships (18 and 30) grooming, sexual themes.
Tumblr media
THE THREE GIRLS walked into school whilst Maxine ranted about how she could maybe go to the dance if she did a couple of chores, all thanks to Georgia. hurray. Georgia is just fucking amazing. hint the sarcasm.
she understood the sentiment of the blonde being an amazing and cool mom but she was still feeling the freshness of their kiss, the aftermath which really wasn't anything other than them avoiding one another but even then, she couldn't hear that name without feeling her chest tighten.
as soon as they were past the doors Samantha broke away from the two teens and walked to the 'blue' hallway where her friends would be. before she could reach them a muscular arm was thrown over her shoulder whilst a more feminine hand was wrapped around her right arm. she didn't have to look to see who they were, Nias strong perfume filling her space mixed with Matthews cologne was answer enough.
"so can we talk about how we're gonna get alcohol" Matthew said leaning his body forward so he can talk lowly without anyone hearing.
"i can get it," Samantha said. she and the rest of them had fake IDs but they always tried to take turns when buying so that they wouldn't get suspicious, although at a certain point the guy who works at the gas station they always went to just stopped carding them at one point. regardless they still made sure to be careful just in case.
"sweet" Matthew said with a huge grin, he pulled his arm off of his best friend and walked up to the bean bags where the other three friends were sitting.
"what are we talking about?" Natalie asked once Samantha and Nia were also there. she was sitting on Oliver's lap on one of the beanbags whilst Jade was sitting on the other, the raven haired girl shot Samantha a smile to which she recuperated happily.
"sophomore sleepover" Nia said.
Matthew looked at them with furrowed eyebrows, "you guys are going to that?"
Samantha nodded, "it's extra credit"
Natalie laughed loudly, "why would they ask you, didn't you guys hotbox Mr Johnson's classroom?"
Nia scoffed, "actually that was your boyfriend and it's probably why they didn't offer either of you it" she said looking between the couple.
Oliver's hand rested on his chin as he looked at the them deep in thought. finally he spoke "that's.. true. huh, i forgot about that"
Samantha nodded, "perks of being quarterback, your pretty much untouchable" she said making Nia chuckle.
Oliver smiled widely, "god you're so right. kind of getting the whole white rich man in america vibes"
"oh my god, don't even" Nia grimaced along with Samantha and Jade. Oliver shrugged with a grin making his girlfriend roll her eyes and lean in to kiss his cheek softly. it was cute how the boy immediately started blushing pink.
"so what are you guys gonna do now?" Matthew asked. the boy was sitting next to - or more like squishing Jade who kept throwing glares at him whilst trying to push him away from the beanbag. clearly there wasn't enough room for two but that didn't seem to effect him.
Natalie smiled brightly, "Jade and i are going shopping" she said glancing at the girl who was paying her no mind, still too focused on the boy practically squishing her.
"and i'm going too.." Matthew said making both Samantha and Nia turn to look at him with furrowed brows. they both knew he hated shopping, even for himself which usually means Nia would pick out his clothes. in all honesty it was the reason the boy didn't dress like all the other basic jocks at the school. "yay" he said smiling forcefully with his hands up in the air as he shakes them dramatically.
the four girls laughed loudly, including Matthew. "fuck dude, who willingly goes shopping with these two?" he said pointing at Natalie and Jade who both turned to glare at him. even Samantha and Nia agreed with him, Natalie never had enough and Jade always had to try on every piece of clothes she bought.
"because if i don't Nat is gonna withhold-"
before he could even finish his last thought Nia immediately held her hand up "don't even finish that sentence"
Oliver raised a brow at her "what?" he said, "i was gonna say movie nights" he shrugged as if her thinking had nothing to do with what he was gonna say.
Nia sighed in relief "oh. okay"
"yeah," Oliver nodded, "that usually always leads to sex so"
the other four teens laughed loudly whilst Nia grimaced "you are disgusting, im disgusted. goodbye" she said not letting him get a word out as she began to walk away. Samantha looked back at her before looking back at her friends.
"looks like i gotta go" she said pointing at her, she short Jade one final smile before turning around and rushing after her friend. she knew for a fact Matthew was following behind without her having to look back to confirm that. pretty soon they fell into a matching step, Samantha in between Matthew and Nia as they all walked to their next class.
Samantha couldn't help but think about the conversation she had earlier. she really wanted her time with her friends to be chill, maybe they could get a bit drunk and bother all the horny teens that would most likely be trying to hook up. instead of that she'd have to be trying to spend most of her night trying to avoid the blonde woman, making sure they wouldn't end up on the same shift or in the same room.
"so i have news," she said not able to contain herself from talking about it anymore, she needed to tell someone desperately.
"what happened?" Nia asked turning her head to look at Samantha. the raven haired girl had her eyes trained in front of her, watching as some teens huddled in groups whilst other couples were walking to class hand in hand.
Samantha didn't seem to be talking fast enough in Matthews opinion causing him to start talking for her. "did you text her? did you guys fuck? are you guys gonna run away together and live your cottage core lesbian life?" he rushed out earning a questioning look from Samantha and a 'what the fuck' look from Nia. he shrugged at the twin.
"uh.. no." Samantha said hesitantly and very confused on why the boy would assume all of that by a simple sentence that didn't even involve the blonde in it. "she's going to be chaperoning at the sleepover"
"damn," Matthew sighed out, "the universe really wants you together"
Samantha rolled her eyes, "she's the one who offered which is so fucking stupid. why would she want to spend her saturday night with horny teens?" she asked annoyed.
"probably cause she's looking for her horny teen" Matthew smirked throwing her a wink.
she rolled her eyes, "oh my god shut up." she groaned. "i'm serious"
"maybe he's right"
"see?" he said pointing at her.
"about the wanting to talk to you, not the horny teen thing. that makes her sound like a perv" Nia clarified.
Matthew made a small noise to show his disagreement. "i mean.. she did technically kiss you the night you turned eighteen"
"really?" Samantha looked at him with a serious expression.
"i'm not saying that's horrible, i'm just pointing out the evidence." he shrugged.
"youre so weird"
"maybe you should talk to her" Nia said.
"i don't think so." Samantha shook her head. "anyway i won't be able to hang today cause Joe wants me to train a newbie"
"really, who?" Matthew asked.
"why can't he do it?"
"i don't know and i offered. he said he'd pay me double if i did" Samantha shrugged glancing at both of her friends.
"damn, he must really hate interacting with his employees" Matthew said.
"he's just not really good with new people. i've been working for him for the past four years and he's still kind of awkward" Samantha said earning a nod from Nia.
"he's cute though" she commented.
"honestly? i'm gay and all but if i weren't, he'd be my turning point" Samantha agreed.
Matthew shook his head immediately. "yeah, i'm out." he said and parted ways from the two giggling girls.
Bad bunny's voice was filling the room from Samanthas television, she was laying stomach down on her bed with her feet in the air behind her. her phone was in her hand as she texted Jade. she was dressed in pajamas, her hair wet from the shower she had just taken. after school she had gone to work where she trained the new girl who resulted to be Ginny. it was awkward to say the least. Samantha was used to making conversation easily with people, almost everyone she met always went from feeling awkward to comfortable in a matter of seconds. that didn't seem to be the case with Ginny.
technically she knew she was slightly at fault, she still had the whole Georgia thing lingering in the back of her head making it extremely difficult for her to talk to Ginny without her wanting to ask about her mom. it was horrible. even then Ginny didn't help much either, she was extremely awkward and Samantha wasn't sure if that's how she was with everyone or just around her. regardless she tried to make it work, she showed Ginny the basic things and anything else Joe had instructed her to do. although things took a weird turn when Marcus came in, Ginny was hostile and cold and even though Marcus was his usual self - trying to get a reaction out of the girl Samantha still saw something weird between them. she wasn't entirely sure what it meant but she did know that she did not want to be informed or a part of it.
after work Samantha had gone to the gym with the twins and Matthew, they spent almost three hours - they did more laughing and talking then actually getting anything done but it was a good distraction.
when she got home she saw Maxine doing laundry, a sight she never thought she'd see to which Ellen explained that it was her way of trying to earn the right to go to sophomore sleepover. smart.
a loud ding got Samanthas attention, she exited out of tiktok and went to the message chain between Nia, Matthew and her.

the girl felt her phone vibrate three more times but she didn't go back into the text chain anymore and instead stood from her bed and walked out of the room. she took her time walking to her sisters room, when she was met with her closed door she knocked twice. a second later she heard a 'what' causing her to open the door to reveal her sister laying on her bed whilst holding her phone up in the air.
"mom said i'm taking you and your friends to school tomorrow" she said and walked inside the room, she closed the door behind her and then threw her body onto the bed and beside her sister.
"it's mang" Maxine said making Samantha snort out a laugh.
"no. it's not"
Max rolled her eyes, "yeah, i guess. your friends won't fit tough"
"Matthew is taking his car" she explained to her sister who nodded and went back to her phone. Samantha moved her body closer to the brunette to see what she was doing, Max didn't seem to care as she kept her phone on the screen with the group chat between her and the other three girls.
"oh wait," Max said turning her head again to look at Samantha. "can you get us alcohol?" she asked bluntly making Samantha laugh.
"seriously?"
"what? you know we're just gonna get it either way" Max shrugged.
Samantha looked at her sister, thinking over her options. she had a point, if she didn't get the alcohol then Brody or Press would. she rolled her eyes, "fine. i expect the cash on my nightstand tomorrow morning though" she said and Max smiled brightly.
"yay, okay" she said happily and went back to her phone.
Samantha chuckled silently and shook her head.
Taylor swift played on through the speakers of the car as the four girls practically screamed along to the lyrics. it was Saturday evening, meaning they were on their way to sophomore sleepover. Samantha spent most of her morning helping her mom set up some things for it before she went to go pick up the things her sister and Nia wanted from the gas station. the girl sighed softly and continued to drive, she now remembered why she stopped driving 'man' around during the summer. they were so loud and don't even get her started on their need to gossip about every single person they knew.
she had never let Max take over the radio - the two didn't exactly have the same taste in music but four girls against one wasnt exactly ideal and they ended up annoying her into saying yes. by the second song she was beyond annoyed. when they finally pulled inside the school parking lot a breath of relief left the girls lips and she reached to the radio to turn it down. all girls groaned in annoyance but didn't say anything knowing the screaming and loud music wasn't helping the older girl park correctly.
the door slammed behind her followed by the other three and the four girls walked into the school happily. Samantha sighed looking at the sky, fucking hell now she was regretting having accepted to chaperone in the first place. dealing with four teens gave her a headache now having to deal with over a hundred more? yeah, she'd need some alcohol for the night.
the girl had her tote bag hanging from her right shoulder as she followed the girls into the school, she didn't stop to chat with her mom like the others did and instead walked straight inside the school in search for her friends. they had texted her as soon as they got there, saying Ellen put them on gym duty meaning it wasn't hard for her to find them. brown eyes searched the room then they landed on Matthew and Nia who were standing at the popcorn station whilst talking to each other with smiles on their faces.
Samantha's lips quirked up at the sight. she'd never tell either of them so but she always thought theyd be a cute couple. she had seen first hand how Matthew always seemed to have a soft spot for Nia, whether that meant he'd pitch in for gas when no one else did, the way he'd walk her to class whenever Samantha wouldn't, how he'd make sure to take his time when rolling her blunt or the way he'd make sure to always buy her favorite candy when they'd go to the gas station. she just knew that Nia would never see that, not that she blamed her, it didn't matter how sweet Matthew was with them, he'd always just the the typical jock who slept around and then ditched them as soon as he'd find someone hotter or more attention grabbing.
"what's up losers" she said once she was near them causing them both to look away from each other and at her instead.
"thank god your here, i was getting tired of him" Nia said practically squealing as she brought her friend into a tight hug. Samantha laughed throwing her head back as she hugged her friend back.
"youre so dramatic" she shook her head, "and im pretty sure you made Matthew cry" she said pulling away from the girl so she could see the boy who was looking at them with a dramatic frown.
"i always feel like im the third wheel between you two" he commented with an eye roll.
Samantha chuckled and walked up to him to pat his back in support, "that's because you are. Nia and i are married, im not sure why you're here"
Matthew rolled is eyes, "yeah yeah, whatever. did you get the stuff?" he asked looking at her bag. she nodded.
"yeah, i had to buy shit for Maxine too so remind me to give it to her" she sighed out in annoyance.
Matthew chuckled, "why?"
"because i know that if i didn't she would just be bugging me all night about how i get you guys stuff but never her" she said.
"you coddle her too much" Nia said.
"i coddle everyone too much so i don't wanna hear it" she said holding her pointer finger up to point at each of them. Matthew held his hands up in surrender whilst Nia simply rolled her eyes with a chuckle. she had a point and arguing would just be a waste breath.
the three soon stood behind the popcorn stand, occasionally having to give some to students. Samantha watched as her sister and friends danced from afar. she swallowed dryly as the red head began to dance against her sister playfully - she knew by now that both Nora and her liked to kiss or dance on one another for 'fun' which in her opinion was stupid and insensitive in a way. especially when she heard about how they'd sometimes kiss at parties to get guys attention.
a low whistle made the girl look away from her sister and at the source of it, "what?" she asked confused.
Matthew smirked his eyes trained on someone in the room, "bootylicious is looking oh so delicious" he said in a slight sing song voice causing Samanthas nose to scrunch and her hand to fly down on his shoulder harshly.
"watch your mouth" she warned. Matthew groaned loudly and held the freshly hit spot.
"ouch" he said loudly, "you have jealousy problems" he followed up in a slight murmur as he shook his head.
Nia laughed, "don't hit me but he's kind of right, she's looking as milf as ever" she said looking at the blonde in a slightly dreamily manner.
Samantha rolled her eyes at both of them. "i hate both of you"
"oh, come on. just admit she looks hot" Matthew said bumping her shoulder softly. she didn't respond, just looked at the blonde in question. she did look hot, of course she did, when did she not? every time she saw her she'd be wearing a different outfit and looking like the prettiest girl Samantha had ever seen. god she was getting far too sappy for her liking.
"yeah, she looks hot or whatever" Samantha rushed out and pried her eyes away from the blonde, afraid if she looked any longer the blonde would catch her in the act.
"told you so" Matthew responded.
the raven haired girl didn't say anything in response, simply went back to watching her sister and her friends but the group had seemingly left.
"go talk to her" Nia said grabbing onto her best friends arm. Samantha let out a sarcastic chuckle and shook her head.
"absolutely not"
"why not?" Matthew asked.
"what would i even say?"
"that you want to kiss her again" he said raising his eyebrows suggestively. she rolled her eyes once more, trying her damn hardest to not punch him again.
"i don't" she snapped.
Matthew and Nia glanced at each other, an uncontrollable smile overtaking their features before they bursted out laughing at the same time. Samantha looked at them both confused then it sunk in.
she groaned, "you guys are so fucking annoying. i should've never told you anything" she said with an eye roll.
the two quickly settled down knowing if they dragged it out any longer they would get the attention of the topic of their conversation.
"okay, okay." Nia said putting her arm around her friends waist, "why don't you just talk to her? just to clear the air. Ginny and Max are like besties now and don't even get me started on your mom so it's not like you can just avoid her like the rest of your one night stands" she said.
she had a point, yes, but that didn't change the fact that being rejected sounded a lot worse than simply having to endure a couple awkward encounters a couple days a week.
she shrugged, "i don't know. maybe" she said laying her head on the girls shoulder. Nia smiled at her friend and pulled her in closer.
the three ended up serving popcorn for another hour before Ellen told them they could take a break and look in the classrooms to make sure no one was doing any drugs. Samantha knew Ellen had assigned that to them and not another actual adult because shed rather turn a blind eyes than have to deal with what came after. Ellen knew for a fact her daughter would look for a couple of minutes before giving up and just hanging out in an empty classroom instead.
and that was exactly what happened. Matthew was sitting on a yoga ball that one of their math teachers had in the room, Nia was sitting on one of the desks and Samantha was sitting on the teachers chair. by now she had given Brody the alcohol, not entirely sure where 'mang' was and not interested enough to go look for them.
"i need to get high" Nia sighed out dramatically.
"same" Matthew nodded.
Samantha smirked, "it's a good thing i brought some weed then" she said and held up the small baggy that held three blunts already rolled and ready for them to smoke. as soon as their eyes landed on it, the two teens eyes lit up.
"oh my god, i love you" Nia practically moaned as she reached over the desk and grabbed the bag from Samantha's hand. the raven haired girl smiled in amusement and watched as Matthew and Nia opened the bag and took the three blunts out.
"want one?" Nia asked holding the third one up with her free hand. Samantha shook her head.
"nah, im just gonna drink for now" she said earning a nod from the curly haired girl.
"liquid courage?" Matthew asked with a slight smirk.
Samantha rolled her eyes at him, "im gonna have to update my mother in an hour or so and id rather her not see me high off my ass"
"doesn't that work if your drunk too?" Nia questioned.
"yeah but she's drinking too so i can just say the smell is just her. plus last time i got high at school i had a panic attack and thought i was going to die" she said earning laughs from both teens.
"oh my god, i remember that. you know Mrs Jones almost called an ambulance" Nia said still laughing.
Samantha rolled her eyes with a slight laugh, "whatever. it's not my fault your brother made me smoke two whole blunts"
"why would you say yes in the first place?" Matthew asked with furrowed brows.
"i don't know!" Samantha exclaimed with a laugh.
Nia chuckled at her friend before bringing the blunt up to her lips, once it was securely held she looked at Samantha with her hand in front of her. when Samantha looked at her confused she sighed and took the blunt away from her lips so she could talk.
"lighter?" she said and motioned her hand so that she'd hurry. the raven haired girl groaned loudly and threw her head back against the chair.
"fuck"
"what?" Matthew asked.
"i forgot the fucking lighter" she groaned loudly pinching the bridge of her nose in frustration.
Matthew laughed, "how the fuck do you forget a lighter dude?"
"i don't know" Samantha shrugged exasperated. "Maxine and her stupid friends were being obnoxious the whole ride here and i just wanted to get out of there. i must've left it in the cup holder" she sighed.
"can you get it?" Nia asked earning a head shake from her friend.
"my mom won't let me out without asking a shit load of questions that i don't have the answer to"
"great" Nia said lowly.
the raven haired girl thought about what she could do. if she did go out to her car then she'd have to deal with a bunch of questions from her mom but if she didn't she'd have her friends grumbling about it for the rest of the night. she was the only one from the three that preferred to get drunk rather than get high but that had to do with her anxiety more than anything else. she couldn't think of anything else, maybe Marcus had one but that wasn't likely considering he didn't even want to go to the thing in the first place and him carrying weed with him sounded like something he'd do but also not something she'd ever want him to know that she also did.
nothing else came to mind except maybe, "i got it" she said suddenly jumping up from the seat. "the principles office" she said.
both Matthew and Nia looked at her as confused as ever, "what?"
"come on, there has to be a confiscated lighter somewhere in there" she elaborated and a look of realization flashed through both their eyes.
"damn you're kind of a genius" Matthew said.
"genius - desperate, same thing, right?" she shrugged. the girl quickly fixed herself up and went to the door. "i'll be right back" she said.
"want us to go with you?" Nia asked.
"and lose our spot? no thanks" Samantha shook her head and left the classroom without another word.
Samantha walked down the mostly empty hallways occasionally lecturing a teen or two about being too close. she was a chaperone and had to make her doing the job at least a little bit believable. the girl had on a pink crop top that exposed most of her chest and stomach, she was going to wear pajama pants like Nia but decided not to when she realized 'mang' had the same idea. instead the two best friends wore black cargo pants and matching pink jordan 1's. even Matthew was matching with his shoes.
a low hum rumbled from the girls throat as she approached the principles office. it was dark and as she opened the door she expected the office be empty but instead she was met with the one person she had been trying to avoid the whole. what was Georgia doing there? she couldn't think of any reason.. oh shit.
the blonde turned around quickly but not quick enough because Samantha had seen her pocketing a couple twenties from the cash box. Samantha's eyebrows furrowed as she approached the woman. was she seeing correctly or was she just imagining this?
a thousand different thoughts were running through her head as the sight. Georgia Miller was stealing? why? didn't she have a job at the mayors office and aside from that lived in a huge ass house? she had even heard from her mom at one point that she had been married to a rich man but he had died and Samantha wasn't dumb, she knew that meant she'd most likely received most of his inheritance.
"sorry," Samantha finally mumbled snapping her eyes away from the box and to the blonde. "im gonna go" she said and began to turn around but that damn voice stopped her before she could get far.
"shouldn't i be the one avoiding you?" the woman said with a light chuckle. she was nervous. Samantha could tell by the way her voice broke slightly at the end of her sentence. that also means her making conversation now was just so she made sure Samantha hadn't seen anything which essentially she had. she knew that means Georgia would try to come up with some excuse - one that she didn't need.
"i won't tell anyone" Samantha said, completely ignoring the woman's statement. Georgias smile faltered for a second before it went be to normal, she chuckled softly.
"what do you mean?" she asked still trying to convey confusion and amusement at the same time.
Samantha sighed, "i didn't see anything" she said motioning the blondes hand that was still in her back pocket. "Nia is in charge of the funding, i'll just make it seem like less people came then what we had counted, i don't know" she shrugged hoping that would make the blonde stop worrying as much as she was in that moment.
Georgias amusement fell from her face and was replaced by confusion, "why?" she asked her country accent bleeding through strongly.
Samantha shrugged, "i don't know, why you need that is none of my business but it must be pretty big for you to be doing this" she said.
the blonde shook her head, "but-"
"it's cool" Samantha cut her off. "seriously, Georgia. do you know how much funding we get from the state every year? we seriously don't need any more money at this school, have you seen the budget our drama class has? it's more than most people's monthly salaries" she said making the blonde chuckle softly.
a thick silence fell over them and Samantha could tell Georgia was processing everything. she didn't need to know why, she was curious, sure, like any other person would be but she didn't need to know why she felt compelled to take the money. it wasn't any of her business.
"but why?" she blonde repeated with furrowed brows, still not able to understand why the teen would do this just to protect her.
Samantha chuckled softly, "i don't know" she shrugged, "but what i do know is that im privileged and i've never had to grow up worrying about money which is not something a lot of other people can say. this money won't be missed, not here so just take it" she said firmly.
a dozen different emotions flashed through Georgias eyes, confusion.. amusement.. amongst other things until finally realization. the raven haired girl was trying her best to reassure the blonde, even smiling softly to show how genuine she was being about keeping it a secret. she expected a lot of different reactions, maybe a thank you, not to tell anyone what they just talked about or maybe even anger but what she didn't expect - not in a million fucking years was for the blonde to push herself off from the desk and pull her into a kiss.
if she had paid attention closely enough she would've seen the way Georgias eyes would glance down at her lips as she talked or the way she'd looked at her with pure and utter need when she finished talking. if she had paid enough attention she would've have been surprised when she felt a pair of soft lips on hers.
Samantha gasped softly in surprise, she felt one of Georgias hands circle her waist whilst the other gripped onto her jaw softly. her shock passed as soon as it came, not wanting to miss this when she had been craving it since the last kiss they had shared. instead she brought her own hands up to the woman's arms where she gripped for support.
wet lips clashed against against on another, teeth hitting from the neediness of the kiss and their tongues gliding against another roughly. Samantha was beginning to feel light headed, her hands only gripped the woman's arms tighter. in a swift motion the blonde had turned them around so that Samantha was being pressed onto the principles desk. she whimpered softly at the rough contact against her buttocks but continued to move her lips roughly against the blondes.
the raven haired girl trailed her right hand up until she was met with the back of the blondes neck where she gripped it softly. Georgia smiled into the kiss causing their teeth to clash and the kiss to stop. she was breathing a bit unevenly, a lot better than Samantha was though. the shorter girls chest was heaving and she was trying her best to breathe in and out lowly so that the blonde couldn't hear how much the kiss had affected her.
"why'd you come here in the first place?" she asked lowly, her face still extremely close to the hispanic girl. Samantha glanced down at Georgias lips wanting nothing more than to feel them on her own once more.
"wanted a lighter" she responded making the blonde chuckle softly.
"you thought you'd find that here?" she asked with a raised brow. Samantha shrugged.
"hoped so"
the blonde hummed then leaned back in for another kiss erasing any thoughts that had formed in Samanthas head. she kissed back just as hurriedly and she felt the blonde push her hips up so that she would sit on the desk. the raven haired girl complied, even opened her legs to feel the blonde closer to her. Georgia took a step closer and grabbed one of the girls legs to wrap it around her waist, her mouth still moving hotly against the girls. Samantha could only think about how she'd probably have a bruise after from now hard she was being kissed. not that she was complaining.
that thought exited her brain almost a second later as the door opening earned girls attention. Samantha quickly shoved Georgia off and ducked down under the desk before anyone could see her. the blonde looked at the person who walked in and then glanced at Samantha slyly who was shaking her head rapidly.
Georgia took a step back, "Max?" she asked confused, the sight of the twin with teary eyes grabbing her attention.
Samantha's eyes widened and she cursed silently, of course wit had to be Max. it couldn't have been a completely random person. the girl looked up at Georgia who was trying her hardest not to bring the brunettes attention to her sister who was currently ducked down and hidden in the principals office because they had just made out.
"oh.." Samantha heard Max say lowly. "im sorry, i didn't mean to-" at her tone Samanthas brows furrowed in worry. she sounded like she had been crying. why the hell was she crying? god, if she and Georgia hadn't been in such a compromising position she would've already jumped up and out of her spot to demand answers.
"oh, honey" Georgia said softly and walked up to Max to pull her into a hug. "what happened?" she asked genuinely worried.
"i kissed a girl and .. she didn't like it" Max answered her voice breaking at the end of her sentence.
"oh" Georgia said lowly. she pulled away quickly after, "come on. come on." she said and helped the girl walk to the door. before the blonde could fully leave she glanced back at Samantha who was peaking through door way, she shot her a thumbs up before leaving her alone.
a breath of relief tumbled out of the girl as she leaned back against the desk. fuck. she'd deal with Maxine later but at the moment she had to find a lighter and go to her friends before they killed her.
when morning came and everyone was leaving the school Samantha was walking along with her friends. after her little run in with Georgia she went back to the classroom to her two friends that were a little buzzed. they smoke the three blunts between the two whilst Samantha paced herself feeling the need to be sober in case the two did something stupid. thankfully she did since her mom asked her to help make sure no one was fucking up the classrooms during the middle of the night.
Nia and Matthew both groaned at the light, the two were mixed between still drunk and hung over. they were both wearing sunglasses to shield themselves from the light whilst complaining every once in a while which would earn a lot of confused eyes. Samantha just laughed with a head shake as she led them to where Joe and Georgia were handing out burritos.
she had yet to tell them about the kiss, first they were both too drunk and then too high and now they were far too annoyed and would probably just end up over reacting and getting more attention than they already had. "hey" Joe smiled at the girl who smiled back. she knew Joe would never admit it but she always thought she was his favorite, not only had she been working with him since freshman year but she was also the kind of employee that he could joke around with and yet still wouldn't act as if they were friends outside of work or ask personal question during work hours
"hey, can i get two extra for the celebrities in the back?" she asked pointing at Matthew and Nia who were shielding themselves from the noise and the sun. he chuckled.
"sure" he said giving her two extras. she had tried her best to avoid Georgias eye but she could feel the blonde staring and it was impossible for her to not acknowledge her. Samantha turned to the blonde and shot her a small smile.
she didn't get the chance to see the way the blondes smile widened as she walked away to her friends and handed them each a burrito to which they immediately started praising her.

I have mean request ( ≖‿ ≖ )
could you write something about ubers + reader taking Barou to the beach? this man DEFINITELY hates beaches. the sand that constantly sticks to his body and spills onto his things will absolutely scratch his perfectionist soul
Tumblr media
barou + ubers beach trip
that fucking photo man im cryingggg😭😭 also thank you for feeding into my current barou brainrot
tags: gender neutral reader, written with a platonic friendship with barou in mind, typical ubers shenanigans
Tumblr media
when snuffy announced that the team will be taking a beach trip as a treat for their hard work and victories during NEL, barou was IMMEDIATELY against it and just wanted to stay behind in the blue lock facility
from the wet sand sticking onto him everywhere to god knows what’s in the ocean (fish piss in there ya know), he was completely out.
he eventually relents when snuffy convinces him to go as it would be a good team bonding experience. and i mean who would say no to the team dad coach
barou also gets instantly annoyed that he can’t gel up his hair since the salty air and humidity will just ruin it so he’s gotta wear it down the whole trip. yet another reason for him to hate the beach
you sit next to him for the entire bus ride to his dismay and laugh at how much he overpacked for a simple day trip. he tells you to shut up to no avail as you keep cracking up at some of the things he brought.
when everyone gets there, barou sits under one of the umbrellas, far away from the tides and the wet sand, right next to aryu who’s trying to preserve his oh-so-fair skin away from the sun.
soon you ask to borrow his sunscreen since you somehow forgot your own. he does end up lending some to you while grumbling about how stupid you must be to not bring yours. then eventually you keep coming back to ask him for more things out of his heavy beach bag despite teasing him earlier because of it.
this does lead to the rest of the team asking for his stuff. oliver borrowing his extra pair of sandals. niko needing some burn gel since he accidentally fell asleep in the sun for five minutes and now the lower half of his face is sunburnt. sendou straight up taking some of his lip balm before he could even say no. lorenzo somehow eating half the snacks barou brought without him noticing.
later the team has a beach volleyball match and you invite him to join. he, of course, says no mainly because he’s disgusted by the feeling of the sand in his toes (and he’s also still pissy at everyone for taking his stuff).
so you gotta drag him out to play. and by that i mean physically drag him out by his arm while he doesn’t budge from his beach towel at all and looks at you crazy for even trying.
eventually snuffy tells you to stop and makes barou join the game to have fun with the others.
since no one in blue lock is normal, you guys play the game like your damn lives depend on it. with how egotistic the match goes, barou actually ends up enjoying it a lot. especially since he now has an excuse to finally destroy his own teammates.
(this also confuses and lowkey scares other clueless beachgoers who had the misfortune of witnessing you maniacs play)
after the game, you notice barou’s attitude and mood have greatly improved. most people wouldn’t even have noticed the change but you know him well enough to catch it.
you once got pinched by a tiny crab and placed it in barou’s hand, telling him it’s pretty crabby… like him…
he just stares at you before walking away with it, planning to release the teeny crustacean back into the water
later during the trip, he immediately jolts away when he sees your fingers covered in wet sand after making sand castles with niko with just your bare hands alone (they honestly ended up turning into sand mounds more than anything).
when you flick some of the sand onto his cheek as a joke just to see how he would react, you would think he saw the literal devil. the literal mortification on his face. thankfully he was petrified for a good few seconds which gave you plenty of time to run, living to see another day.
when everyone gets back, barou will never admit how much he actually enjoyed the trip and hanging out with the team. instead, he will grumble about how much sand got into his swim trunks and hair when he gets ready to shower.
but everyone knows he actually had a blast hanging out with the team for a day.

John Oliver taught me new things on student loans debt.
1-last summer, biden did try a small bail out for student debt. The supreme court OVER TURNED IT. I hate our supreme court. Entirely. Hope they all retire, by choice or force. They work 100% EXCLUSIVELY for the rich.
2-Old people are going into debt. So...when I was a kid going into college, I was furious my parents refused to cosign on my college loans. At 38, I AM SO GLAD they didn't. They were rigged! It would have FUCKED THEM out of retirement, and THEY DESERVED TO RETIRE; they're so happy. In the show, he shows a guy who paid his kid's loans from 2004....and they wouldn't be paid off till 2040!!!!
3-I guess there's low income payments. See, I knew of the 10 year program: make regular, consistent, semi large payments for 10 years, NEVER MISSING A ONE, and whatever your debt was is forgiven (however, if you missed ONE PAYMENT, I am not exaggerating, you're fucked forever). But I guess there's another one, same premise, but for 20+ years (show hinted 25 years!), where you get a TINY payment and, after 2 decades, all is forgiven. Here's the problem: of the 2 MILLION people who qualified recently, only 32 (literally 32) actually got it forgiven. What the ever loving fuck!?
4-We all knew these federal loan programs were garbage, but, intentional or not, debt services 'forgot' or were late on mailing out bills, and over 800,000 people were late on payments due to it. THAT IS MALICIOUS!
5-So the last summer biden dismissal of student loan forgiveness had ads against it. It was ironic. Cuz first it said don't forgive rich people's loans, when, logically, historically, rich people don't HAVE loans for college cuz their parents pay for it. DUH. Secondly, it was mocking theater degrees....with actors paid to play 'regular' people hating on theater degrees. Like, irony squared.
5-He pointed out how we can have tax payers pay for stadiums not everyone uses, but we can't forgive student loans?
6-Oliver, like normal, jerked off the government anyways at the end. He does this EVERY FUCKING SHOW. 'The government/the rich/the media are to blame for everything, but I promise they will get it right THIS time if we just give them patience and power.' I fucking hate his sell out ass in that regard. He never demands immediate action from us; trust those who originally cause the problems to fix them. Dumbass. I watch cuz he is informative, but he is a sell out too.
7-As I said on other posts, forgiving ALL major debt (public/personal) would ONLY fuck the banks who WE BAILED OUT, so they owe us anyways. PERIOD.
8-I know this is me watching too much of this show, but I could tell, by his tone alone, he was going to say they were off next week. Serious.

Practice (Blue Lock)
Tumblr media
YAY!! FINALLY WROTE FOR THESE TWO!!! I love Sae so much 😭 I also feel bad for him that he has to deal with Shidou lmao.
Warnings: Cursing, this is a tickle fic so if that’s not your thing just keep scrolling
Summery: Saes had enough of Shidous antics. Unfortunately there isn’t much he can do about it.
Sae Itoshi was going to kill Ryusei Shidou.
He decided he wanted to give him a very painful death and swore he’d follow through with it when he could. Why, may you ask? Well it all started from an incident that lead him into a downright humiliating situation.
“Sae-Sae pleeeeeaseee???” Shidou whined playfully.
“No.” Sae replied for the millionth time. The grumpy tone telling how fed up he was.
“But Sae-Sae I wanna practice with you!!!” Shidou cried, still following the pink haired prodigy around the field.
The U-20 team had another practice session for the upcoming match against the Blue Lock team, and Sae Itoshi finally agreed to join a practice. But only because he was on the team now for a while, and felt he needed to know who he had to work with. Certainly not because of Shidou. Definitely not. Not in a million years. Maybe…
“Stop with that nickname already! And would you give it a rest?! I’m not practicing with you right now. I’d rather just practice on my own. Juts fuck off.”
Shidou pouted at that.
“Well you’re no fun…” he said with disappointment, reaching to poke him in the ribs.
“Hnhg!”
….
Wait…
“Itoshi Sae what the fuck was that?” Shidou asked with a sly grin, taking notice how he had brought his hand to his side, possibly as a lame form of protection.
“N-nothing. Go away. Leave me alone!” Sae demanded, trying to regain the last bit of composure and pride he had left.
Shidou just smirked.
Sae looked back at him into his eyes almost as if to say, you better fucking not.
Suddenly the two had broke off into a full on chase. Saes legs were working over time today and he hated it.
The team soon took notice as they watched Shidou chasing Sae around the field.
“Wonder what’s got them so riled up?” Oliver Aiku commented as he finally noticed them, watching the two play chase.
Shidou seemed to be gaining on him, but Sae prided himself on being extremely quick and agile.
That is unless he forgot to tighten his shoe lace… which had in fact come complete undone during their little chase scene.
Just like that his agility went out the window, and Sae had fallen flat on his face.
He turned around to stand up. Before he could get up however, a massive weight had fallen on top of him, making him fall on his back, therefore keeping him straddled at the waist by Shidou on the damp and grassy ground of the field.
Unfortunately Shidou was a lot bigger and stronger than Sae could dream of becoming, so simply pushing him off was pretty much off the table. Regardless that didn’t stop his pride from trying to do just that. But it was futile no matter how much strength he put into his shoves.
“Where ya goin Sae-Sae?” Shidou teased, clearly not effected by the defense.
“Sh-Shidou get the fuck off!!” Sae protested, when he had nothing left. Getting angry was his last line of defense to try keeping his pride.
Shidou unfortunately had a counteract for that too.
“So, Sae… are you ticklish? Shidou asked with an evil grin.
“N-No!”
Crap, he said that way too fast.
“Then why’d ya run? Hmm~?”
“Because you’re annoying!”
“Then why are you so nervous?”
Well shit he got him there…
Without further ado, Shidou began wiggling his fingers up and down the pink haired boys sides.
Sae could do nothing but suppress his reactions, keeping his mouth sealed shut as he still continued to push at Shidou. If he was going down he wasn’t going down without a fight.
“Awe Cmon Sae-Sae don’t resist~ I already know you’re ticklish now so what’s the point? Well you could hide it for now… but it’s all fun in games till I find a partICKLulary bad spot~”
That damn bastard. He knew he was just trying to rule him up. Sae would rather kill himself than admit that stupid little pun almost made him break.
Suddenly however, Shidou next found a spot on his ribs. He just had to go for the ribs. The giggles finally overflowed.
“Sh-shihihihit!!!!” Sae cried, squirming around more vigorously as he pointlessly tried pulling his hands off him.
“Awwww there it is!” Shidou said with a wide grin of pure, gleeful satisfaction. Encouraged now, he dug into his ribs, pressing in between each groove as Saes laughter filled the air.
A bunch of other team mates had taken notice and stared in awe as they watched the usually stoic and clam prodigy squealing and laughing right there on the ground as he squirmed and writhed helplessly under Shidou.
“Should… we go help them?” One of them asked, sounding conflicted between concern and amusement.
“Nah~” Oliver Aiku said with a playfully lazy tone. “Little sir genius other there is probably just getting what he deserves.“
On their end however, Sae was having a not so easy time.
“SH-SHIHIHIDOHOHOU WAHAHAHAHAIT!!!!”
Sae had convulsed and threw his head back into loud cackles, as Shidous hands went around and found a spot on the back of his topmost rib.
“Uh-oh~ is this spot sensitive for you~?” Shidou teased with a smirk.
“FUHUHUCK YOHOHOHOHUU- NAHAHAHAHAHA!!!”
As soon as he said that, Shidou decided screw it and went right for his armpits.
Sae wildly kicked out his legs from behind Shidou, arching his back and clamping his arms tightly, despite that not doing anything to help.
“FIHIHIHINE!!! FIHIHIHINE IHIHIHILL PRAHAHAHACTIHIHCE WIHIHIHITH YOHOHOHOU!!!!”
Shidous expression brightened. “Awe you mean that Sae-Sae?”
Sae would’ve replied. That is, if not for the fact that his laughter had gone hysterically silent.
Shidou realized this, because he had stopped his hands, pulling them out.
Sae Itoshi, usually the most cool, calm, and collected out of most, was a mess. His face was red from being flustered and laughing so hard, his usually tamed hair was all messy now, and residue giggles were still leaking out of his mouth.
“Fuhuhuuck I hahate yohou…” Sae groaned, rubbing away at his overexcited nerves.
“Yeah sure you do Sae-Sae…” Shidou grinned, grinning as he poked at the pink heads cheek.
Shidou then held out a hand. “Well? Are we gonna practice or not.” He asked with a knowing grin.
Sae, finally gaining his composure back, accepted the hand.
“Yeah sure. But only on the condition that you don’t get too overexcited. It’s exhausting.”
He got up to see the whole team staring at the two.
Right. First he was going to have to think of a really good excuse to spare himself the embarrassment of teases from the entire team. Ryusei Shidou was so fucking dead.

things to say in between kisses when u catch ur breath:
1. your entire recipe for home made meatballs
Ingredients:
- 1 Cup Panko Breadcrumbs
- 1 Cup Milk
- 2lb Minced Beef or 1lb Beef 1 lb Pork
- Couple slices of smoked bacon
- Garlic Powder/Granules
- Oregano
- Basil (dry or fresh)
- Cumin
- Salt (Cooking salt/kosher salt)
- Black Pepper
- 1 White/Yellow Onion OR a couple shallots
- 1 Bulb garlic/some of the easy garlic stuff
- 2 Eggs
- MSG/Worcester Sauce/Soy Sauce/2 Anchovies
- 2 Carrots
- Concentrated tomato paste (optional)
- 3x 500g tins of tomatoes (try to get san marzano tomatoes
Recipe:
- Soak bredcrumbs in the milk for 10 minutes after stirring to combine
- Preheat Oven to 420ish F (200C)
- Mix the beef, optional pork, eggs, 3tsp of basil (or more, the baking cooks most of the flavour out and its just there to make it look green), some salt & pepper, and 3-4 cloves of minced/pasted garlic (can substitute for equal tsp of garlic granules or powder, pref. granules) in the panade bowl
- lay them out on a lined baking tray by scooping big marble sized bits and lightly rolling between 2 hands, you dont need to roll them much since the panade and the eggs are gonna bake and hold them together. I forgot to mention thay you should cut little strips of bacon into the mixture
- Put those in for about 10-12 minutes, they dont need to be fully cooked through just mostly brown. Leave them out to cool while u make the ragu
- Ragu time!! Dice the onions and the carrots small, the carrots need to be extra small to soften during the slow cook. You can also dice up a stick or two of celery in there but I hate how they taste sorry!!!
- Fry those in enough olive oil to coat the bottom of the pan kinda thick (i usually just count to 2 out loud while pouring the olive oil, its roughly 3 tbsp). Fry until onions are transluscent and starting to brown, about 10 minutes, make sure u scrape any burny bits at the bottom with a plastic or wood spoon/spatula to emulsify the fats in the oil.
- Add in your garlic (like 3-5 cloves, to taste) and let fry until fragrant (60ish seconds)
- Add 3-4tbsp of the tomato paste, 4tsp basil, 1.5tsp oregano, 2tsp cumin, a bunch of salt, 2.5tsp MSG, 2tsp garlic powder and fry for another 5-10 mins stirring often, scrapping burning fats off the bottom to emulsify, and adding small amounts of cold water if things are burning, keep stirring etc.
- Add in your tomatoes and the cooled down meatballs.
- Set to either pressure cook on a lowish pressure (Soup/Stew presets are usually good) for about 40 mins OR preferably put on the slow cook setting for 3-4 hours.

an olive branch
[steve rogers x reader]

summary: you’ve reached your breaking point at work and steve wants to help you find a solution. but first… pizza.
words: 2.1k
warnings: none. established relationship, no use of y/n.
a/n: thanks to @mumbles411 for this idea! Here’s the original ask: ‘There's always the old 'comforting someone after a bad day' thing. Especially if they already hate their job. I've been there and would have loved Steve or Bucky to be there for picking me up.’ enjoy! ����
You’re almost an hour late getting home, and Steve paces the living room with his phone in hand, talking himself out of calling you again. You answered the first time–hi baby, I’m so sorry, I missed my train–and then your call dropped. Likely, you were on the platform and reception was never good down there, but that isn’t much comfort to him considering you sounded so frantic.
When your key slots into the lock, Steve beats you to the punch and rips open the door. You practically fall into his arms. 
“Mmm,” you groan, burying yourself in his chest. “Never been so happy to see you.”
“Bad day?” He draws circles on your lower back.
“Awful. I feel like a broken record, and nobody is listening.” Your sniffle is unmistakable. “How do I keep doing this every day? It’s going to break me.”
“Hmm. Take your shoes off, dove. You hungry?”
“Oh god,” you sigh. Steve steadies you as you toe off your shoes. 
“You forgot to eat, huh.”
“Didn’t have time! Three people called out sick, even Pietro was taking orders. I think I could eat a whole pizza by myself.”
“Your wish is my command.” He eases your bag from your shoulder, takes your coat, and then pats your butt in the direction of the bedroom. “Get cozy, okay?” Steve chuckles as you shuffle away to do as he says, disappearing into the comfy space to find the pajamas he had laid out on the bed after doing laundry.
“How was your day, baby?” you call.
“Boring,” he replies, typing your favorite pizza order into the delivery app. “Missed you. Did laundry. Not much going on (as far as potential fieldwork) so I caught up on some paperwork.” He’s been home for longer stretches, lately, which he has enjoyed immensely, especially because he can do the frankly outrageous amount of paperwork SHIELD sends over from the comfort of your sofa, while letting daytime tv drown the street sounds outside.
“You do a lot of paperwork for being America’s Ass.”
Steve laughs. “Excuse me, this ass belongs to you.”
“Lucky me.” You lean against the doorway. When Steve glances at you, your eyes are shining with unspent tears. He confirms the food order and tosses his phone onto the sofa. He takes his time meeting you at the threshold, but he can’t help brushing his thumbs over your cheeks.
“What’s got you so sad?”
“Steve–will you be brutally honest with me?” your voice breaks, and you curl your fingers into the front of his t-shirt.
“I don’t know about ‘brutal,’ dove, but I’ll give it my best shot.”
“Am I being unreasonable? I feel like the girl who cried wolf. All my coworkers seem to agree with me, but I’m the only person willing to say something–it makes me feel like I’m overreacting, but I can’t get strung along anymore.”
“You’re in the right,” he soothes. “Do you wanna sit on the sofa? You’ve been upright all day.”
“I don’t know if my knees bend.”
“I can help.” Steve loops an arm behind your knees and lifts you. You pretend to be aghast that he would do such a thing, but you kiss his cheek. He sits down, keeping both arms wrapped around your waist. “Let me ask you a question. Yeah?”
You snuggle against his chest and nod. “Shoot.”
“What’s the worst that can happen if you quit?”
“Well… Can’t afford my half of rent, for one thing–”
“Money aside.”
“I can’t not think about money. When you grow up without it, it’s everything.”
Steve nods. He does know a thing or two about that. “Okay. You’re right. You have concerns about paying your bills, it’s a legitimate worry. What else?”
“Who’s gonna speak up if I’m not there?”
“Dove, somebody is gonna have to find their voice. It can’t be up to you to save the place.”
“...says Captain America,” you snort.
“I have a team. It’s not my sole responsibility, and I couldn’t do it if I didn’t surround myself with people who put in equal effort. Right? I’m hard to kill, but I don’t fly. I’m bad with computers, never shot an arrow in my life, and when I get angry, I just get flushed.” You giggle at that. “But you’re carrying the worries of every person you work with. It’s unsustainable. You said it yourself–it’s too much.”
“I know,” you sigh. “But we’ve all gotten so close dealing with this bullshit.”
“Are you worried they won’t talk to you if you leave?”
“I guess I am.”
“Don’t think that’s likely; for one thing, Wanda would kill you if you didn’t go to the farmer’s market with her on Tuesdays.”
You smile. “True.”
“And we can still go there for drinks anytime you want. But not pizza–”
“Because it’s not ‘real New York pie’, yeah yeah,” you parrot the phrase he’s said to you a million times. “Where did you order from, by the way?”
“Sweetheart,” he scoffs, “the only place in the city.”
You snort. “You’re such a snob.”
“What’s the worst that will happen if you stay?”
“I’ll have a mental breakdown. I was… researching outpatient programs the other night when you found me out here super late.”
Steve kisses your forehead like he might soothe all the pain from your mind. “Oh, dove. You can’t live like this.”
“I don’t know how to leave! I have to find something else first, or it doesn’t make sense–and do you know how hard it is to find a job in this fucking economy?” You swipe your hands under your eyes furiously.
“Or–no, listen.” He kisses you, leveling his eyes with yours. You nod, but tears stream down your face. “Or… you put in your two weeks. We take a month to get you rested up. Go to a Yankees game or two. And then you can choose something which isn’t gonna drain the life out of you.”
“I don’t have enough saved up.”
“It’s okay. I’ve got you covered.”
“No, Steven–”
He tips your chin up. “Stop. I’m not keeping score, here. You’re my girl, this is what people do when they have a life together.”
You hug him so tight. “You’re sure.”
He wraps you in his arms. “Yes. And… if you realize what would make you the most happy is to sit on the balcony and paint neon cityscapes, while drinking Celestial Seasonings tea out of business, then I support you.”
“Nooo–I’m not gonna sit around while you have to do the work to pay for our life!”
“You contribute in other ways. I’d kill every plant in this place if it weren’t for you.”
“What would America say if they knew you fell for a plant lady?”
“I am asked about you in every interview, and have been since you came to the Smithsonian opening with me. I think America’s in love with you, too.”
“Awe,” you grin, pressing your fingers into his scalp with a loving scritch. “I don’t think I can make a decision tonight.”
“Perfectly reasonable. No rush. You want a bath?”
You appear genuinely conflicted for choice. “But… pizza.”
“Bath-pizza?”
You narrow your eyes. “I can’t decide if you’re brilliant or not.”
“One way to find out.” He kisses your temple. “Hey.”
“Hm?”
“I’m so sorry it’s been bad for this long. It’s terrible, and you don’t deserve it.”
You bite your lip. “Thank you, baby.”
“Why are you thanking me, huh? I’m right.” When he grins, you kiss him in annoyance. He loves when you do that, like you can’t let him get another word out so you seal his mouth with yours. What a punishment.
He carries you into the washroom and sets you on the counter, promptly handing you a sheet mask from your basket, and holding up two different bags of scented bath salts for you to pick between. You point, and he nods approvingly. He starts the bath water, and the buzzer sounds.
“Dinner!” You sprint for the button, but he’s faster; Steve catches your hips and slides between you and the front door.
“Get your butt in the bathtub, ma’am. Or I won’t hand-feed you pepperonis like a princess.”
“I missed the part where that was on offer,” you cackle. “But if I go get it, I’ll be able to eat all the olives off the top by the time I get back, so you won’t be disgusted by my taste in toppings.”
“You don’t know what I ordered. Maybe I got Canadian bacon.”
“I think that’s considered treason.”
“Get!” He spins you around and presses the button beside the door for the intercom. “Hi, if you wait inside I’ll bring you some cash.”
“Cool, thanks man!” The delivery driver is in for a great surprise.
Steve kisses the curve of your neck. “If you’re not up to your eyeballs in bubbles when I get back, I’m gonna eat all your olives myself.”
“Big talk from someone allergic to them.”
“Don’t push me.” He nips your earlobe, making you yelp.
“Fine! Be nice to me! See if I care.” You stick your tongue out at him, and leap away when he attempts to pinch your ass in retaliation. He can’t help the full-hearted laugh when you peek at him around the doorway innocently. “Just checking!” you coo. 
If anyone knew Captain America sat on his washroom floor, feeding his girlfriend a pizza he is most definitely allergic to, they’d probably believe it. Steve is nothing if not predictable, but he doesn’t mind being known for something he takes great pride in. A lot of what he does is duty, but bringing a smile to your face and easing your burden is something which brings him inordinate joy. You make all that pressure go away. With you, he is just a native New Yorker with strong opinions about crust style, who kills plants with almost impressive frequency and overtips delivery drivers by hundreds of dollars. So–not ordinary, but he doesn’t have to pretend on days he is down, if he wakes up next to your sweet face. But when you are hurting, he hurts by proxy. 
That night, he makes sure you have all the pizza you want (pepperoni by pepperoni, being very careful to avoid the olives and washing his hands thoroughly), while you slowly turn into a prune. Once you are tucked into bed and softly snoring, he eats his own pie sitting on the floor in the hallway outside your shared bedroom, and he ponders something he hasn’t thought about in a long time:
What if he retires? 
Sometimes when you wake up and can't fall back asleep, he rubs your back and tells you hypotheticals about a little cottage in the woods with a big garden, where you wouldn’t have to do anything but figure out how many carrots to use for dinner and get good at knitting. It always puts you right to sleep with a smile. Why does it have to be a pipe dream?
When he crawls into bed beside you, and your eyes open a bit, he kisses your brow. 
“Hi,” you murmur against his chest.
“Hello. You okay?”
“Mmm.” You loop your arm under his so you can pull him even closer. Steve slips his legs between yours. “You’re very comforting.”
“Yeah?” He smiles against your hair.
“Yep. Never make me question lovin’ me.”
“Sleep, sweetheart. ‘M not going anywhere.”
You smash your cheek into his skin and you’re quiet for a minute. He almost misses your little declaration. “Gonna quit.”
“When?”
“T’morrow.”
“I’ll pick you up from work on the bike. Go out in style?”
You lift your head up enough to give him a blissful, sleepy smile. “Yes please.”
He presses his lips over yours gently. “I’ll be there.”
“Come in uniform?” 
“You really want them to feel bad,” he chuckles.
“Nah. I just like lookin’ at ya in spandex.”
“You can have that anytime.”
“Tomorrow?”
“Sure. If you want.” 
You return his gentle kiss. “Love you.”
“I love you, too, dove.”
Now, he has to find a cottage for the sweetest woman he’s ever known. Because you only make decisions like this when you’ve weighed all your options, and he wants to give you a more attractive alternative than another dead end job. Something to keep the sunshine in your cheeks, where you don’t spend a portion of your life worrying about him coming home safe.
Sam’s ready for the shield. You’re ready to quit your job. It’s time for Steve to make the call about his future, too… where he can put you in a bubble bath every night, and maybe join you, just because. The best possible life for his dove.
thanks for reading!

thoughts I've had while re reading poa as a marauders fan, part one (chapters 1 - 4)
(id just like to point out this is my first time reading the books since middle school and first time I've read the books since I became a marauders fan in 2020)
chapter 1
- ok so ye the Weasleys are really poor, but if they're "extremely poor" you'd figure they'd use their money for something other than a vacation
-I forgot sweet little hedwig existed djdjdjdkdjd
-someone please eat the rat
-let the future cat have him pleaseeeee
-why did I start to dislike hermione so much again??? maybe it's just movie hermione I hate and I can't remember the differences between the two
chapter 2
-why are most of the antagonistic characters portrayed as fat and why is the fact that dudley is obese brought up so many fucking times like that seems pretty fat phobic of you Rowling
- when actually reading and thinking about the Harry potter books and movies I imagine the actor that played sirius and not the fanart marauders sirius I'm more used to, and apparently his hair is depicted as elbow length in the books not shoulder length WE WERE ROBBED. could have had long haired sirius with a bun in ootp
- also I swear marauders Era Sirius and golden trio era Sirius (so canon and fanon sirius) are two completely different people in my mind
- also forgot "muggle" news talked about sirius
-just finished the chapter and seriously he is so sassy (guess that's what you get when you're Sirius and marlenes godson, and James and Lily's actual son)
- also I really fucking hate how much mental abuse is glazed over here like????
- it happens every summer and he's forced to return to his abusers like wtf
- this is why I don't like Dumbledore very much
chapter 3
-forgot padfoot wasn't like an actual dog sized dog
-lowkey forgot about padfoot in general ngl
-bro harry are your really throwing precious and innocent Neville under the bus rn come on dude seriously
-ok like when they mention Sirius I can't help to think of the dramatic, gay, Remus obsessed Sirius from all of the wolfstar text posts I've read
-also the fact they have to clarify what a gun is in the wizard news is wow
-same with Ron not knowing how to use a phone
-no wonder these people keep having Wizarding wars and unstable teachers at their schools
- love how this 13 year old kid is panicking over the possibility of going to wizard prison for breaking one rule
-also side note the more I read the more I feel like Daniel Radcliffe portrayed him super well
- hedwig supremacy
- "ur the literal wizard president" "yea but I'm not ur guardian dumbass I can't sign ur permission slip what in hell is this"
- why is reading stans parts so fucking hard
chapter 4
- ah Florean Fortescue the one genuinely nice adult in these books (isn't he like Alice's dad or something?) I just remembered her last name is actually more or less a headcanon uhhh that's fun
- the Irish quidditch team are actually mentioned along with the quidditch world cup even Harry's checkin out the firebolt
- coincidence that Dean and Seamus are mentioned at the same time? I think not
- seriously jkr why do you keep giving kids abusive gaurdians and acting like it's nothing (talking about Neville and his grandmother)
- "...Ron looking incredibly freckly, Hermione very brown..." (pg 55 in my book). when first reading this part years ago I registered it as Hermione was black/poc and not that she was just tan from the sun lmao
- I swear crookshanks was James' old cat and that's why he hated peter
- also Percy wow this why you don't befriend stray rats man
- the things this rat has seen go on in Percy's and Oliver's dorm room....
- still probably not as bad sharing a dorm with Remus and Sirius tho
- I love the twins sense of humor
- but guys stop messing with my precious baby Percy he's just- an autistic overachiever doing his best guys
- ..."he lost everything..." Yes Sirius did in fact lose almost everything Arthur but not bc what you think happened dude
- "he's safe with Dumbledore-" yea fucking right /sar
- "stationniong soul sucking demons around a school is such a good idea hehehehe" /sar
- literally there's no fucking way McGonagall thought Sirius did it- literally fucking refuse to believe that she did
going to start another post for chapter 5 bc oh boy it's going to be long

initial thoughts on DCAS episode 6
THIS EPISODE WAS SO GOOD!!! the fact that it was a musical episode is totally the cherry on top; i love it when series come with their own music (cough cough me @ project sekai). but overall it was also really funny, and had some great character moments, too.
i'll save my thoughts on strategy and where the season might be headed for my next power ranking post (whenever that is :,( ), but were some of my other thoughts/highlights.
Tumblr media
specifically the phrase "fuck my life" and Yul saying it made me cackle. seems like Emily ISN'T Yul's manager, but she might still kinda take on that role this season? we'll see. the lack of phones is really having an effect on the plot.
Tumblr media
they hate her so fucking bad
Tumblr media
okay, i guess i forgot to consider this angle when i was saying it would've made more sense for them to vote out Fiore. however, having started with 18 participants, the merge will probably happen at, what, 10 people? (modern Survivor describes the merge as "at least 11," but obviously this isn't survivor.) sure, Hunter is a bit of a challenge beast, but he can't protect all three of them every episode. if this trio is only 3/10 of the votes, you could literally split the votes on Ally and Tess in a 3-3-4 if you can get everyone else to unite against them. you know what you should be worried about? THE VILLAINS ALLIANCE HAVING 6/"10" VOTES AT THE MERGE!!! sigh. why am i relying on Jake to be smart (/j)
Tumblr media
i'm more impressed that there was hot water in the first place. this thing is in the middle of a field, no?
Tumblr media
i'm finally starting to see how Yul can be a hilarious "love to hate him" kind of villain. he had some of the best lines this episode hands down.
Tumblr media
TREVEK BECOME CANON???
Tumblr media
there was absolutely no reason to put the apple on the stick other than to fit in. love this for her.
Tumblr media
idk if this is a winner's cut moment or not. glad that the money would go towards schools and NOT the police force, though.
Tumblr media
man, now i want to go back and check the other episodes to see if Tess has had the "Cyan Team narrator" role the whole time. in Survivor, that's indicative of a deep run. ...i really need to stop applying Survivor logic to everything.
Tumblr media
and why are you thinking about what would make Oliver laugh, Kristal? ',:)
Tumblr media
i appreciate the s1 callback, but Trevor doing this dance move gives me so much second hand embarrassment that i keep inadvertently closing my eyes every time i have to "see" it again. anyways, given how most of the episode songs had lyrics related to the Team's emotional state, it's interesting to see that Trevor is singing a romance song. trevek become canon pt 2?
Tumblr media Tumblr media
this was an interesting parallel. with Kristal laughing at Derek's joke, it seems like they were trying to show how she's growing closer to Derek, in a way which Trevor might fear is romantic. were there supposed to be romantic undertones to Alec being the only one to laugh at Connor's joke? and, if there were, was that just a fun nod to the aleconnor shippers, or will it actually be canon/relevant to later in the season?
Tumblr media
NOT a surprise. i need to see the "i want you died" poetry he wrote about Fiore after last season.
Tumblr media
of course you were, you fucking fruit (affectionate)
Tumblr media
the anguish: i love my gf :D let's frolick through a field together
Tumblr media
"trust me dude i'm the divorce man"
Tumblr media
GABBY?????
Tumblr media
mood but also damn is Ellie really leaning into the villain thing this season. this doesn't even help her win the season, she JUST wants to see him suffer.
Tumblr media
i forgot that the s1 contestants didn't know that Nina was her own separate being yet
Tumblr media
they were NOT lying, Aiden's VA is a great singer! Tom's backing vocals and Ellie and Gabby's harmonies(?) were also really nice too, though. this was probably my favorite song of the episode just bc i think Cyan had the strongest singers. all of the rocking, shoulder-moving dances are also impossible not to imitate.
Tumblr media
well, there's the thumbnail. their choice of thumbnail made me laugh bc i remember, back when i was watching s1, seeing all the thumbnails of Aiden kissing both James and Hunter and thinking that Aiden was going to be some sort of troublemaking flirty antagonistic character only to be blindsided by his actual characterization. i'm sure the s1 watching me would have only added this to her arsenal of evidence, although hilariously idk if i would have been able to tell the other character was Tom at the time. anyways, i was pretty certain from the start that this must be part of the performance. although, while i'm happy that Aiden seems to think that James will be okay with the performance, i wish we could have cut to James somehow just to confirm that that was true. i don't want the next time we see James, whether in the finale or some other time, to show that he was actually really jealous and upset at Aiden for kissing another man while in a committed relationship. also gabbielle(?) super cute in the bg :D
Tumblr media
he's so fucking stupid... (/pos)
Tumblr media
bold of you to say this to Ashley, who has been in a two year relationship with the guy who went home in episode 2.
Tumblr media
i also really liked this song :D i understand why they made Jake and Ally the main singers, because they best encompassed what the theme of the song was about, but i think i actually liked Ashley's vocals the best. i wish she'd gotten to sing more. also for a moment i thought Marcus had a trans flag on his hat. it's still close enough. trans Marcus canon.
Tumblr media
this was probably my least favorite performance of the episode, although idk how much of that was just how much i hate Alec's outfit. glassesless Alec scares me so bad... no hate to the VAs, obviously, i think they have nice voices! it's actually the way that they didn't sound like they had confidence in their singing abilities that made the performance feel a little shakier to me. i do think that this song had the best lyrics in terms of encapsulating each member of their team, though. i really like how Yul and Riya are the ones to sing "i'm going to chase it" as a duo, because they're the ones chasing fame and the limelight, and then Grett sings that she can't ignore it, because eventually she's going to have to realize that her entire relationship with Yul was a result of him clout chasing. Connor only singing "live in the moment until i die" is also very fitting given his placement... in both seasons. L.
Tumblr media
really surprised that Riya (or anyone else) didn't even mention Yul's foot injury as part of this equation. Riya just said that she didn't want to lose any more challenges, and Yul's bad foot could totally lead to a loss. maybe i'm just overestimating the extent to which that foot injury will stick around, though.
Tumblr media
season 2 characters are REALLY suffering out here.
Tumblr media
HELP??????
Tumblr media
love to see Alec and Fiore's kinda sorta dual redemptions. i have high hopes for them.
and those were my initial thoughts, which got way longer than i expected. thanks if you wound up reading towards all the way down here. i have no idea who the leakers are, obviously, but i really hope that they stop acting up soon so that the series can continue. i would hate to have the artists have to take a pay hit and/or stop making the series just because of some people's impatience and delusions of power, or have the honest patrons lose out on being able to watch the episodes early to protect from others' immaturity. see ya!

Man I feel like I forgot how much Oliver Queen sucks in this show. I’m not even talking about his hate on for Lex, that’s its own separate category of rancid. I mean, just like in general, he seems like a self-righteous jerk and not a nice person to be around.

Hear me out Sarah Screams,Johnny spirt, and Operetta listening to music on a record player
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This was more meant to be a character design challenge, but now that I have their designs down, maybe I'll revisit your idea! As for now though, here's Scarah And Johnny!
I'm gonna put this under a read more because in turned into a lot.
For Scarah I tried to lean a lot more into the 60's mod fashion for her, and tried to limit the olive green in her clothes (I always though it was kind of an odd choice)
I don't really ship her with Invisibilly. They always seemed to be together out of convenience rather than actual attraction. Scarah isn't really into the dating scene, but she does have a not-so-slight crush on her beastie Iris, and can't stand seeing her with that meathead Manny Taur.
She's very studious, and tutors the underclassmen at Monster High. As such she becomes quite close with Twyla, and the two bond over their introverted natures, though Scarah does want to break out of her shell a bit. She learned telepathy so her peers wouldn't freak out whenever she opened her mouth, but somehow the rumor spread that she could actually read minds, so a lot of her classmates still avoid her anyway. (Huh, wonder who spread that rumor...)
Regardless she still has her beasties Iris and Hoodude to depend on.
Now onto Johnny
Dude is a super loner. It could have something to do with spending so long in detention, though rumor has it that he was always that way. The only monster he seems to genuinely enjoy spending time with is Operetta. Anyone else, he'll only hang around to get something out of them. (He'll tolerate Heath for a few moments if he forgot his lighter at home)
That cigarette does nothing for him. He only smokes them to look cool. He'll tell anyone who asks that he died from lung cancer and then blow smoke directly in their face. No one knows if its true or not, dude lies all the time.
Everyone refers to him as "Johnny Spirit". Operetta is the only one who just calls him "Johnny".
I don't know why, but I feel like he and Romulus would have beef. For whatever reason they just don't vibe, and everybody around school is just waiting for them to brawl. As a proud pack leader, Romulus hates how much of a lone wolf Johnny is, and Johnny just doesn't respect his supposed role whatsoever.
He also finds Spectra incredibly annoying, as she's always trying to dig into his business. He has a mild respect for Toralei, but rejects any of her efforts to become friends. Other than Operetta, Invisibilly is the only other monster he regards as something close to a friend. He finds his pranks entertaining and will try to get in on them from time to time.

First Chem Trip
This is a crack oneshot. If nothing makes sense then goal achieved. I had so much fun just writing this and laughing at how bad Oliver got during his first chem trip. Hancock forgot that he was born in the Commonwealth.
Suggestion Idea: @songsaa best suggestion ever ngl
PAIRING: Oliver Cecil (OC) x John Hancock (FO4) WARNINGS: Drugs mentioned, Drug usage. WORDS: 0.4k
Tumblr media
“Cmon sweetheart, just try it once, trust me, the first trip is always bad butttt..”
Oliver sighs “Still not trying it. Doing chems is bad, and it costs you money.”
“But this one is on me! You’re not paying anything, plus you’re on vacation right now.”
Oliver glares at Hancock, clearly unhappy with what he's about to say.
“IF I say yes, will you stop trying to get me to try chems?”
“Yea, promise.”
Hancock had no intentions to stop pestering Oliver.
“Here, try Mentas first, I think this is pretty tame.”
“You’re literally a bucket of chems. Tame for you could be hell for me.”
“Just trust me :C”
Oliver pops the pill in his mouth, and boy was he NOT prepared for it.
“Soooo, how do you feel? Feel any smarter? That’s what Mentas do for me.” Hancock spoke, he rambles something off but you feel like consuming anything right now.
“Hancock. I can hear colors. Is this normal.”
“Colors? I don’t know, it been so long I forgot what effects belong to which.”
“God damni- whoaaa. My brain feels like it’s gonna bursttt.”
“You’re slurring now. Def in full effect now.” Hancock sipped his whiskey.
“Wwwhat is thatttt?” Oliver slurred, stumbling forward and just grabbing the whiskey and downing it.
“WHA- Oh man Preston is gonna have my hide. This is not how my first time went.” Hancock sat back down in exhaustion. “It’s just Mentas too but now he’s drunk!”
“Heyyy Johnnn do you see that bird over there.”
"Oh now you’re hallucinating. That’s not good.”
“I’mmm noottt” Oliver pouts “Seeeee it’sss reallyy thereeeee.”
A bird just flies off to prove his point.
“God damn what type of vision do you have? Is this is what Mentas do to a human??”
“Johnnnnn I feeeeeeel likeee something burstinggg outtt.” Oliver slings his hand over Hancock’s shoulder, and uses it as a rail to hold while his stomach empties out the entire bottle of liquor he drank just minutes before.
Hancock didn’t even say anything, he just sat there jaw dropped.
“Hmmmm I feel sleeppyyy-”
“As much as it would be funny to see you fall asleep in your own muck pile, I know you’d hate it.” Hancock cackles while catching you.
.
.
“This fucking sucks. Why did I let you talk me into this?”
“Hey I told you the first trip is always bad.”
“Yeah but not like this. God, my head's pounding and my mouth tastes like whiskey and shit.”
“I never told you how bad though.”
“Oh shut up.”
“Love ya.”
