Tara Carpenter x Fem Reader
Summary: Tensions rise as two of your friends are found in a suspicious position.
Warnings: Mentions of violence, angst
Word Count: 2.7k
A/N: I’m sorry if this sucks…writing this chapter sucked the life out of me.
Tumblr media
Sitting in the ambulance doesn’t feel right.
You don’t think you deserve to be here, getting taken care of; while the rest of the gang goes on searching for clues. You lean against the van door, struggling to keep your eyes open.
You can’t bear to watch as the police lift Ethan’s body and wheel him into their black van.
You’re so tired that you can’t even cry.
You turn and bury yourself in the crook of Tara’s neck, trying to distract yourself with her warmth, her smell, her. She hasn’t left your side for a second since the paramedics arrived, and she doesn’t seem to mind you clinging desperately onto her either.
It might be how exhausted you are, or the fact that her comfort makes you feel so safe, it lulls you to sleep quickly.
It feels like a blink of an eye before you’re getting woken up to the sound of Sam interrogating Anika and Mindy.
“Found them just a couple minutes ago, they were knocked out,” Tara whispers to you, reading your face in the blink of an eye and knowing exactly what you were going to ask.
You inspect the pair carefully. They look like they’ve been through it.
Along with red marks all over her arms, Mindy has a little scrape of peeled skin at the top of her head.
Anika’s looks even worse.
There’s a huge purple-ish green-ish bump just right above her eyebrow. It’s in the shape of a perfect rectangle like someone had tried to knock her out with a brick.
“Where have you guys been?” Sam’s asking, sort of calm but sort of rough at the same time. There’s no doubt there is an underlying tone of suspicion in her voice.
Mindy sighs heavily, seeing right through the fake calm facade Sam’s putting on.
“Sam, we swear we do not know anything.” She’s saying, eyes wide. “We saw Ghostface coming, we ran! And the next thing you know we both got knocked out. I mean, look at the wound Sam. I know Ghostfaces have done this before, the whole hurt yourself thing. But I swear. Please, Sam.”
She looks put-together, all things considered. But Mindy’s always been one of those people, she goes through life swiftly; with nothing on her mind except for obscure indie horror films and her girlfriend.
She doesn’t sound like she’s lying, you’ll give her that.
“So you just left Danny alone?” Sam asks, clearly not as persuaded as you are.
Anika breathes loud, a sound of growing impatience.
“We were being chased. I’m sorry Sam but if it was between Mindy and Danny there’s no way I’m picking your boyfriend.” She explains, waving her hands wildly. “And we don’t even know if he’s Ghostface.” She ends, the last statement said in nothing but a hushed whisper.
Sam can’t say much about that. She breathes heavily, very much resembling the look of an angry dragon as she stands; towering.
You snuggle into Tara, deciding that you in fact do not want to be a part of this conversation.
She looks down at you and smiles, pressing a soft kiss to your forehead. Then she’s wrapping her arms around you and slipping a hand in your back pocket.
She wiggles around in there a moment before you feel her fish something out and shift away from you slightly, smiling.
“Now what’s this?” She’s whispering teasingly, quiet laughter shaking her body.
You crane your neck to look at it, but all you see is a backside of a tiny piece of paper, all yellow and old looking.
Paper? You don’t remember having paper in there.
Tara stills as she reads it, her heartbeat under you quickening at a rapid pace.
“What is it, babe?” You question, tightening your grip around her waist.
She tilts her whole body to show you what’s written on the paper.
Scribbled crazily on the note in thick red liquid, are five words.
NITEHALK CINEMA - TONIGHT. BE THERE.
You stare at it for a long time, like if you looked at it hard enough it’ll dissolve into thin air. The words look almost anthropomorphic, threatening to jump out and grab you by the neck.
“Huh.” You state, turning to blankly stare at Tara. She blinks back at you, obviously also taken aback.
You guys have a silent conversation until Tara carefully untangles herself from you and makes her way toward the older Carpenter.
You see her hand Sam the paper, all eyebrows furrowed and soft voices. Sam snatches it from her, but your view gets blocked off when a paramedic comes to stand in front of you.
You eye her a little wearily, confused as to why she’s standing there.
“Hey, hon.” She says, eyes crinkling at the sides when she smiles. She has some age, you can tell, but she still looks youthful and full of life.
You relax, almost melting at her term of endearment.
You were always a sucker for one of those. Especially if they were coming from an attractive middle-aged woman.
You quirk an eyebrow, signaling that she can keep speaking.
“So, I had a quick look at the wound on your stomach there. You’ve got an infection, sweetheart. It’s nothing to worry about if you get to the hospital immediately.” She tells you, sternly.
An infection?
You open your mouth to answer her, tell her that there’s no way in hell you have enough time to do that, but Tara’s heading back before you can say a thing; and you mumble a quick, “Don’t tell her anything.”
Because the last thing you need is Tara fussing over you when there should be Ghostface hunting to do.
“So what happened?” You ask your girlfriend, grabbing and positioning her so she’s standing in between your legs.
She doesn’t say a thing about it, but you see the blush start forming.
“We’re going to the damn theater together, and we’ll end the motherfucker. Once and for all.” Tara says and then tilts her head to the side, eyes flirting between you and the paramedic as if she’s just realizing she’s here. “Everything okay?”
You cut in quickly, shooting the paramedic a look and wrapping an arm around her waist for reassurance.
“Everything’s great.” You smile.
-
“Aren’t we rushing into this kind of fast? Like..why are we going to a random place Ghostface clearly wants us to go to?” Chad asks, his voice betraying his fear for the whole plan.
You’ll admit, it was a sort of sudden decision, even for you.
As soon as Tara showed Sam that paper, Sam turned into an animal. Asking for papers from the medical staff still around and gathering all of you to listen to her new plan; excluding Anika and Mindy.
“Seriously?” Anika’s saying, right after Sam informed her that they weren’t invited to listen in.
Sam doesn’t relent, just stares her down with those fiery eyes she only has reserved for situations like these.
“If you want me to believe you, you’ll have no problem staying out of this,” Sam says, nodding matter-of-factly.
“Well, I don’t want to be kept out of the loop and die.” Anika mumbles, but backs down nevertheless; walking back to join Mindy dejectedly on the sidewalk.
Now, you guys are stuffed into Sam’s van, ready to take on the weirdo in the white mask once again.
Funny, this is giving me déjà vu.
But after Sam’s monologue last night, where the older carpenter had talked about sacrificing herself, it seemed to ignite a fire deep in you; one that still wanted to fight.
You know you’re not the only one who’s feeling this way.
One quick glance at the gang and you can tell everyone’s feeling motivated. You can only hope it lasts so long.
Well, everyone except Chad.
You contemplate reaching over and gripping his hand for support, but wonder if it’ll be weird because you haven’t exactly had the best relationship with him, but decide fuck it, we’re friends, and do it anyway. He sends you a nervous but supportive smile back.
Sitting still hurts. Any kind of movement only worsens the pain. It’s like the conversation with the paramedic opened your eyes because you can feel every little thing bothering you now.
By the time you guys get to the theater, your anxiety’s at an all-time high.
Beads of perfectly shaped droplets fall from your forehead at a rapid pace, and your heart feels like it’s up in your throat.
You push open the doors and try to quell your fears by acting brave. The facade disappears immediately when you see what’s in the theater.
You pale.
It’s a shrine. A goddamn shrine of Ghostface.
“Well isn’t this nice? Ghostface has a fan.” Tara mumbles, pushing past you to see further in.
Everyone slowly files in and looks around curiously, murmuring soundlessly between pairs.
You sway as you walk further in, head whirling. You stumble and hit a glass box, and you have to grip it to steady yourself.
You stare at Sam unloading the big black bag shed packed full of weapons from just last night, getting prepared.
It doesn’t help with the haziness. You need to get your mind off this shit…you need something. Your head drops to peer inside the glass box.
You think your heart literally stops when you see the collection of pictures, paintings, a summarized biography, and a bloody knife. A familiar photo makes your breath hitch.
Stu Macher : The Second Ever Ghostface
You blink. Try and steady your heartbeat by closing your eyes and sucking in a deep breath.
Just when you feel like you’re about to pass out, Tara steps up beside you, putting a hand on your back to help steady you.
“You okay?” She whispers, a concerned expression painting her features.
You look down at her, flash her a tight-lipped smile.
“Yeah.” You try and say with as much positivity as you can muster.
She sees right through it, frowning so big you’d think you’d just told her you were Ghostface.
“I know when you lie to me.” She says pointedly, pouting.
You sigh, it’s no use to lie.
“No, I’m not doing great currently, but that’s not our top priority here Tar.” You murmur softly.
She punches you in the arm, with all the power of a marshmallow bouncing off you and crosses her arms.
“It’s a priority to me.” She huffs.
You raise an eyebrow. Tara wasn’t one to give you words of affirmation, but whenever she would, she’d get adorably shy.
She’s not this time. She’s standing tall and sure of herself, staring at you like if she lets her eyes off you for even a second you’ll run away.
You contemplate telling her about what the paramedic said.
You should, you know that, but you don’t want to worry her more than she already is.
She’s tired too, you can tell. It shows through the dark circles beneath her eyes and the way her hair is just a little more ruffled than usual.
Tomorrow I will, you think. After all this is over.
You settle for wrapping your arms around her and whispering an I love you in her ear.
Tara stills, obviously surprised at your confession. It surprises you too. You guys had never really said it before, even though you’re sure the both of you felt it.
“Um..I’m sorry. It just sort of came out, you don’t need to say it back. I understand.” You say quickly, sheepishly.
Tara quells your fears with a kiss, full of passion and urgency.
It feels like it always does, so goddamn dreamy. Her and her kisses never fail to send you straight into cloud 9.
When you pull back, you’re a little dazed.
“Well…okay.” You say, smiling goofily.
Her expression matches yours, albeit a little more composed. Her red cheeks and neck don’t fool you though.
“I love you too….idiot.” She says, adding the last bit to help put her racing heart at ease.
You snicker and shake your head. Your eyes drop down to the box again, but you don’t feel nearly as bad anymore.
“Man, I’m related to that guy? He looks like an alien dog.” You whine, only sort of half joking.
Tara chuckles heartedly and pats your back softly.
“He kinda does.” She murmurs.
“What does that mean…are you saying I look like that too?” You question, eyes wide and piercing, trying to look intimidating. To Tara, you look like a lost puppy.
“I never said that.” She quips, smirking. She’s teasing you.
“Yeah, but you didn’t rebut me so I’m led to believe you agree.” You press, forming your lips into a pout.
She reaches out to try and wipe it away, but you tilt your head; trying to fight for some semblance of control here.
She tries again, leaning to grab your face and kiss you, but you swerve as quickly as possible, a small part of you a little sad at the act.
The part that wants you to win this “argument” is bigger though. And it takes control once again.
“Nuh-uh. No kisses until you admit I don’t look like an alien dog and that I’m actually mighty gorgeous.” You say, proud smile; sure you’ve won.
“Oh really?” Tara smirks, leaning back until her back is pressed against the box and your hands on both sides of her waist.
She calls your bluff. “I don’t think you’d be able to take it; not kissing me.”
You have to bite back a gulp at her boldness.
God this girl was going to be the death of you.
You challenge her, happy to have your beloved banter with your girlfriend back.
“Funny…I vaguely remember you being the one who couldn’t keep her hands
to herself for a second. And who was the one that was so impatient the first time we had sex she tripped over and landed face first into the mat?” You tease, watching Tara’s cheeks heat up.
“Hey! We promised not to talk about that.” She grumbles, disregarding her bet from 5 seconds ago and tilting up to meet your lips.
You smile against her lips, victorious.
When she sees it, she huffs slightly, mouth still connected to yours.
“Whatever.” She says, pulling back.
“Guys!” Sam’s voice booms through the theater, echoing a couple of times before fading out.
Creepy.
“Get over here! Safety in numbers, remember? Who knows where Ghostface is? For all we know, he’s already in here watching us.” She continues to yell, watching as you and Tara saunter over; hand in hand.
Her words send chills down your body, and you’re suddenly aware again of your beating heart.
You look behind Sam, seeing multiple Ghostface mannequins standing tall. It’s scary how much eeriness some pieces of fabric can create.
“Well, isn’t this a dainty place to be having our conversation?” You chuckle nervously, turning your head to the left, then the right; where you see nothing but all 9 Ghostface mannequins from the Stab franchise, or in this nightmare reality, real life.
“Can you just shut-“ Sam begins, obviously done with your bullshit attempts at lightening the mood.
The lights turn off in the theater all at once, leaving you guys in complete darkness; all stunned.
“Up.” Sam finishes, and you can already hear her feet start to shuffle as she looks and grabs around.
You feel her rough hands as she grabs at your wrist and pulls, too hard for your liking.
“Sam- Could you be a little gentler please?” You huff, trying to weasel your way out her grip.
“What are you talking about?” Sam voices, but it feels kind of far away from you. The grip around your hand suddenly feels weighted. “I’m not touching you Y/N.”
Before you can react, the hand is coming up to your mouth and pressing hard, muffling any sounds that’ll come out.
“YN? Baby? What’s going on?” Tara asks, worry seeping through her words.
You try and scream, or say anything, but the sound dies in your throat when you realize there’s something pressed against your nose.
It’s a cloth: a smelly one at that. You realize what it is immediately, all those true crime documentaries finally coming in handy. Chloroform.
The fumes are practically shoved up your nose, and you feel your knees buck underneath you.
Fuck, Tara.
You wiggle and thrash around, but nothing works, the chemical’s doing its job, because in the next second; you’re gone.

warnings: none except some suggestive language
➰-smut ✔️- fluff ➿- angst
Tumblr media
It had been a few days since Rhea had left for Raw. You wished you could’ve been there but you were injured and she had to go by herself. You and Rhea were an inseparable duo… behind the scenes. To the fans you couldn’t have wanted to be farther away from each other as you two were enemies and if you had been in the audience you would have no idea that you guys couldn’t stand not being with in arms length of each other.
She called you around 10:30 that night just as the show was about to go off in about 30 minutes. You answered
*facetime*
R: Hey baby! How’s everything going?
Y: It’s going good just watching my girl on tv. *you flip the camera towards the tv screen and then flip it back to face you* lookin’ good babe!
R: *she lets out a brief chuckle* I’d look even better with you out there with me.
Y: Oh really! Yelling at me on live tv!? *you said with a smile and a small laugh*
R: Oh cmon baby you know I don’t mean any of it, hell I don’t even write it! *she said with a smile as well knowing you were joking*
Y: I know , I know! But seriously, when are you gonna be home? I miss you so much! * you said with a small pout *
R: I know babes I miss you more than anything. I should be home later tomorrow, maybe around 6 ish? * she said with an uncertain look on her face *
Y: That’s to long in my opinion. * you said with a bratty attitude *
R: Oh don’t start being a brat on me now baby. You remember what happened last time you did that? * she raised an eyebrow *
You did indeed remember being splayed on your shared bed with her between your plush thighs, licking up your previous orgasm. You’re hands tangled in her black strands, trying to escape but, she was locked on and not stopping anytime soon.
Y: Ah yes I do remember. But I don’t think it was too bad you could’ve done a lot worse in my opinion. * shrugging your shoulders hoping that would instigate the situation *
R: Careful baby your on very thin ice. * She held her fingers up to the camera doing the small motion*
Y: Well we’ll see about that when you get home Mami. * you knew the nickname turned her on when you said it so suggestively and with that little smirk of yours that only made her go feral *
R: Ok you better be ready because you did it to yourself, my love. I’m going to go back to work I have to be on in 5. You better be watching. I love you, babes. * she said with a wink and a little kiss towards the camera before hanging up*
You sat there in the same place for a minute, ads playing while you try to mentally collect yourself. You turn towards the TV once again doing as you were told. Raw came back from commercial break.
Her music hit and you locked your eyes on the tv once more. She had a match tonight against Natalya. You love Natalya she was like a maternal figure and friend at the same time. But you really hoped that Rhea would win.
She comes into frame as the camera gets closer to her. She looks in the camera with her little smirk. You had a feeling that one was for you. She makes her way down the ramp with a steady and confident pace holding her title with pride.
She gets on the apron and does her signature pose. Looking into the camera with extreme confidence. And here’s the part she wanted you to see. She sticks her tongues out and flicks it back into her mouth then swipes her tongue over her pearly white teeth. This mf know what she’s doing.
You giggle at the action and text her.
Y: I was watching, saw what you did. Now YOU better be ready ;)
delivered
You knew she wasn’t going to respond anytime soon so, you sat back and enjoyed the show. She was in the main event so you knew this was the last match of the night. But, you were so tired and eventually fell asleep right after her match and didn’t see when she replied.
The next morning
You woke up on the couch. Searching for your phone that had been lost somewhere in the couch over night. You gave up on liking for it for now. You got up and strolled to the kitchen to make something to eat. As you were getting your smoothie ready to blend you heard a faint sound coming from the front door. It was the sound of the lock turning.
You got a little bit scared and quietly tip toed over to have a look at the door but not to close in case it was an actual threat. When it finally opened your mood completely took a turn and you ran, jumping into your girlfriends warm arms.
R: Hey baby! *she said as she kissed your forehead *
Y; Hi babe! * your smile beamed up at her as you kissed her soft lips*
Y: Wait I thought you said you’d be home later today? * you said with a slightly confused look but not upset she’s home sooner *
R: Well I was able to get an earlier flight back so I took it. * she said using her free hand to caress your cheek*
Y: I’m so happy your home early I don’t know how much longer I could’ve gone with out being with you. * you said sliding down back the floor*
R: I missed you too babes. But I saw your text last night. Did you think you’d get away with that? * she said using a finger to lift your chin to look up at her*
Shit you forgot you sent that
Y: Oh shit. * you giggle and start to back away trying to get out of the situation*
R: Nuh-uh not so fast baby girl. * she said grabbing you by the backs of your thighs signaling you to jump* Your not going anywhere.
She walks the two of you to the bedroom and to say the least you hope every homecoming ends like this one.
THE END
a/n: I hope you enjoyed this again please be kind this is my first writing so leave any helpful tips or advice it is much appreciated. If you want to be tagged in my future posts just lmk !!

Go Fish, Bitch
Pairings: Jensen Ackles x teen!reader, a little bit of Jared Padalecki x teen!reader as well
Summary: When Jensen gets bored, he tends to cause chaos. Today, he brings Y/N into the chaos, and she loves it. In which a card game commences, and Jensen loses by a long shot.
Warnings: None. Pure, tooth-rotting fluff.
Word Count: 870 ish.
A/N: Hello lovelies! I'm going to try to start writing for the SPN cast, I honestly really love their dynamic. As always, requests are open :) Feel free to send in any asks/requests/random thoughts!
Tumblr media
Standing at the door to Y/N's trailer, Jensen knocked twice. Another boring day on the set of Supernatural meant he had nothing to do. He'd already teased Jared and Misha and filmed his scenes, so for once he could say he had nothing to do.
A minute later, you opened the door.
"The hell do you want, Jense? You know I love you and all, but I'm really trying to do my homework." you grumbled, despite the goofy smile on your face. Truth be told, Jensen was one of your favorite people. Seeing as you were 16 and still in school, Jensen and you loved playing pranks on the rest of the cast. If you asked Jensen, you were the only one who had his sense of humor.
"I'm bored out of my mind, kiddo. I've filmed my scenes and Jare and Misha kicked me out, I literally have nothing to do."
"Fine," you sighed, "come on in." Opening the door, Jensen walked in, plopping down on the couch while you shut and locked the door.
"So, how're you doing today?" he asked, turning on the T.V.
"Please don't make me think about my life." you groaned, laying back on the couch. "what do you wanna do, anyways?"
"Well, I kind of brought cards..?" he said sheepishly, and a smile found its way onto your face.
"Fuck yeah! Ever played Go Fish?" you asked excitedly.
"Okay, first of all, language. Second of all, obviously, I'm not that old." he rolled his eyes, taking the pack of cards out of his jean pocket.
"You shuffle and I'll deal?" you asked, grabbing the hoodie in the corner of the room and doing your best to clean off the kitchen table. He nodded, and you set out a bag of chips. You both sat down, you dealing the cards and Jensen grabbing the bag of chips like it was a lifeline.
"Okay, I'll go first since you so rudely took my focus away from my homework. Any fives?" Jensen groaned and handed you his five, already prepared to lose the game.
"Any twos?" you asked with a smug grin on your face. At Jensen's shit-eating grin, you begrudgingly drew a card from the pile.
"Do you, my fair lady, happen to have any nines?" You sighed as you handed him your card. You both had 5 cards left-the game could go either way.
"Okay. Any threes?" You handed him another card, and he laid down the match with a proud expression on his face. "Aces?"
"Nope. Go fish, bitch." Jensen gasped, pretending to be offended. He drew a card.
"How dare thine disrespect me like that!" he exclaimed in a posh accent.
"Well, British guy, do you have any Kings?" Jensen threw his King across the table.
"Queens?" He once again threw a card at you. You decided to test your luck.
"Any twos?" He muttered some version of a curse word as he threw the card at your face. You had two cards left, and he knew he was screwed.
"Any fours?" He shook his head, and you drew a card with a sad expression on your face.
"Do you have any Aces?" he asked, hopeful. "Nice try, Jens. Nope! Go fishin'."
"Do you have any sevens?" you asked, and he once again handed you his card. "I'm really good at this," you mumbled, once again left with only two cards.
"Do you have any jacks, Jay?" you asked, your grin only getting wider when he handed you his card.
"Do you...Jensen Ackles... have an eight?" "Fuuuuck!" he exclaimed, hurling his card at you.
"I WIN!" you yelled, getting up and doing a victory dance that could only be described as terrifying.
"Y/N, you probably just alerted the whole crew of your little victory," Jensen sighed, throwing his head in his hands dramatically.
"Well excuse me if I'm a little excited about my win. I've been having a rough day, you can't rain on my fishy parade."
Jensen accepted the loss, and gathered the cards, putting them back in the box. He smiled as you practically dragged him to the couch, throwing yourself on top of him to get in your self-proclaimed "spot".
"Watch yourself, squirrel, or I'll throw you right off the couch!"
"Yeah, yeah. Whatcha wanna watch?" you questioned, grabbing the remote off the floor where it fell during your scuffle.
"Brooklyn Nine-Nine?" he asked hopefully, and did a happy dance as well as he could from his position. You put on his favorite episode, the one where Jake tries to join a bike group to find out evidence.
You both end up falling asleep curled up on the couch, and when Jared comes to get you because you missed a scene, he audibly 'awws' when he sees the scene. Quickly taking a photo and posting it on his Instagram to make the father-daughter fans happy, he wakes you two up gently.
"Y/N, honey, you missed your cue. The directors are calling for you, c'mon."
At his call, you rush out of the trailer, homework long forgotten.
Jensen may or may not finish it for you, but if asked, he will definitely deny it. It's a dad's duty, right?

Flatline (Luke Hemmings/reader)
Tumblr media
Flatline (Luke Hemmings Imagines)
Title: Flatline
Rating: None
Pairing: Luke Hemmings/Reader
Word Count: 2116
Warning: Language
Summary: You're the guy's tour manager for their new tour
Author's Note: I am entirely grateful for all the love and support my last story got!! >_< It means the world to me that people like my stories! I hope this one is to your liking as well. I've got a few ideas for the other guys so don't worry!! I'm in the making of a few but wanted to ask if anyone is up for a series of imagines based off of their songs?! I did my Older one and this of course is Flatline, but just wanted to ask if people would like that?! Again, thank you so much for the support!!!
⋆ ★⋆ ★
“You guys are on in 5 minutes. So do any last minute touch ups and rituals; and if you need me for anything I’m always here you just have to get me.” I say smiling at the group of 4 men who I have grown to love over the short period of time I've been their tour manager. Their personalities and them as people just make it so easy to fall in love with them. Except for one; Luke. Anytime I would try to be close and nice to him like the rest of the boys I am not even given the cold shoulder I just get a blank stare or just a nod yes or no. It’s like he’s numb. If he had given me the cold shoulder I would at least know he just doesn’t like me, but I just get a blank stare.
I’ve asked the guys if I did something that offended him and why he didn’t like me, and they would just look at each other with the same look they are having right now when they see I’m waiting for a confirmation from Luke after I announced they had 5 minutes left and I got nothing back not eve a blank stare this time just nothing. He doesn’t look at me at all. Not looking up from putting his makeup away into his makeup bag even with the uncomfortable silence that wafted over the dressing room once everyone knew he wasn’t going to respond back.
It was like he was in an entirely different world that no one else was privy to except for him. But his face didn’t show the bliss that you get when you're daydreaming. It held nothing but concentration. Not knowing what had him so concentrated that made him look like he was about to explode into a million pieces, I walked over to him to see if there was anything I could do to help him. He might not like me, but I'm still his tour manager and bottom line I will do anything to make this tour more magical than the last even if talking to him has me on an edge of a cliff from nerves.
“Luke, is there anything I can do for you? You guys are on in a little less than 5 minutes.” I said to him softly, barely over a whisper looking at him with so much sincerity that a tour manager probably shouldn’t have for the lead singer of the band she is managing, but I couldn’t help it. Even with all the blank stares and nods. I couldn’t help but fall in love with him, going beyond the platonic love that I have for the other guys. He was just perfect with all his flaws, although I don’t think he has any he might be standoff-ish with me, but I can’t help but see how he interacts with the other guys, the crew, the fans during a show or in general, and his family when they come to some of the shows.
He always gives anyone he’s talking to his full attention sometimes looking like a puppy while doing so but it’s endearing. It shows he cares even if what you're talking about isn’t all that important. I can’t help that when he does his makeup how beautiful he looks and the look of being alive and doing what he loves while he's on stage makes me feel like I’m in the presence of an angel. Suddenly getting caught off guard from my thoughts by the man himself. When he abruptly stands up pushing the chair he was generally sitting on while cleaning up his makeup. I back up not out of fright but more out of shock looking around for a moment noticing all the guys are not in the room anymore.
The look of confusion crossed my faces wondering when they left, but before I could get too far in my wondering, Luke asked, “Are you going to be on the side of the stage for this show?” Even more confused, I answer in an unsure tone.” umm… I guess?” It sounded like more of a question than I intended. I tried to recover from it.” I was going to get the schedule for our next stop situated during this show so I wasn’t planning on it but if you want, I can just do it after the show.” Not even a second passed before he answered me,” Can you do it after the show? It will be easier if you were by the stage tonight.”  I stare at him for a moment, questions in my head that I’ll never asks run through it before I ponder any longer on them though I see that he’s waiting for an answer looking almost nervous but I see on the wall clock that he has to be on stage in 2 minutes so leaving my questions in my head I answer him,” Yeah I'll be there on Cals side.” Without anything more said between us he leaves the dressing room leaving me with nothing but his presence and the questions in my head left unanswered.
By the time I composed myself in the dressing room and went to my designated spot on the side of the stage on Cal's side, the boys were already on their third song. When I got there, I was handed an earwig from one of the workers on tour so I can hear the tech crew and everyone else if there's a problem that needs to be fixed. Getting a weird look from the crew around me made me self-conscious, questioning why everyone was giving me that look on top of the questions I have from my discussion with Luke.
Putting all my focus back onto the show, I see that instead of Luke having his talking part first like usual it’s Michael who is doing his. Confused, I turned to the closest person on the crew besides me and asked,” Why is Michael doing his talking portion at this moment and why was I not informed by this?” The crewmate looked nervous when I asked, not knowing if it’s because there scared on losing their job or something else, I try to clarify more for them trying to ease their nervousness," I’m just asking because any new changes need to be made through me, you're not losing your job and I’m not mad I’m just wondering why this decision was made without at least talking to me.”
Seeing their nerves not lessening, but answering anyway in a rushed stutter manner,” The guys asked for this request and said not to tell you.” Turning towards them like they had a second head I see the crewmate walking briskly away stopping where a bunch of the other people apart from the crew where and talking heavily with them before they all stopped once they saw I was looking over them. Why is everyone being secretive about something and why did no one tell me about the last-minute change on the show.
I questioned myself, getting madder by the second once I saw that even more people were looking at me. Staring ahead after I get tired of the stares that are burning holes into my head every passing second, I try to focus on the show making sure it goes off without a hitch. Even though I see that each of the guys are going in a different order for their talking portions than what we’ve planned in the start of the tour, I see that after Michaels talking portion and a few songs, Ashton went next for his talking portion.
Why are they going in a different order than the one we picked even when there's a different order Luke always goes first so it’s easier on the guys and the crew to switch out guitars. Why did the guys not tell me about this or Luke when we were talking in the dressing room earlier. They clearly knew it was happening from what I’m seeing on stage and what the crewmate told me when I asked about it. Worrying even more, questions ran through my head that I was going to ask the boys once the shows were done. I didn't realize how much time went by with all of my worrying.
Until I heard Luke doing his talking portion missing all of Cal’s one, I tried to pay attention pushing the worry and questions till after the show. I hear Luke make a nervous laugh continuing the nervous streak while talking like he did with me earlier in the dressing room,” I know that you all have realized that we're doing things in a different order on this show and that is because… I have something special I'm going to do for this show.” he laughs at the end when he hears the fans screaming at the top of their lungs. “As I know how exciting this is. I need you guys to do me a favor. Can you do that?” 
He questions the fans in an exciting tone, the nerves still blatantly present though how much he’s trying to hide it from the fans covering some of it up. I've spent enough time with these guys to see all of their tell-tell signs. Coming back from the fans screaming yes. Luke laughs again, "okay, good so for our last and final song I would like you all to please be courteous because I'm going to be bringing someone out for this song and I would love it if you all sing along with me.”
Drowning out all the exciting screams from the fans I grab the closest crewmate to me,” What is he talking about bringing someone on stage?” I asked hurriedly. When I don’t get an answer from them, I hear Luke start to talk again this time with an almost desperate tone that you wouldn’t have catched if you didn’t know him well.” Now can I please get are ever so brilliant tour manager on stage please.”
Looking confused I see Cal walking towards where I am on the side of the stage walking towards him in an almost run. When I reached him, I asked in a hurried manner,” What the hell is going on?” looking down at me he says in a calm tone,” Everything is going to be explained but you just have to trust me and go on stage please.” Looking into his eyes, seeing them have a pleading look, I slowly nod my head.
Walking with Cal on stage was the most nerve-wracking thing I’ve ever done. My admiration for the boys is growing. When we met Luke in the middle of the stage all the fans were screaming. Blocking them out I turned to Luke asking what I’ve been dying to ask him this whole evening. "What the hell are you doing and what the hell am I supposed to do up here?” Giving Luke my must baffled look and all I get in return is him saying, "Just please listen to the lyrics it will explain everything I promise and all you have to do is stand here looking beautiful.”
Before I can question him anymore, I see him giving a nod to the other boys, and next thing I know I’m hearing the strums of Cal's bass and Lukes's voice combining into their song Flatline. Hearing it before and loving it like any other song they release. I still don’t understand why I'm out here in front of 10,000 fans until Luke turns towards me walking, chest to chest singing the chorus of the song looking nowhere but my eyes, and all I can do is be hypnotized.
Not once looking away from him even when everything clicked into place. He likes me, that's why he has been acting the way he has. The man who made me hypnotized in every sense likes me, and I've never noticed. Without thinking I lean up to his face, wrapping both of my arms around his neck, my hands reaching into his beautiful blonde hair, curling my fingertips into the curly pieces I move his head down to my own. Looking into his eyes for permission but instead of him giving me one he grabs my hips and crashes his lips against mine. The kiss felt nothing like I’ve ever had before, like everything was aligned. Breaking apart when the fans' screams reached a new level, I looked into his eyes with the brightest smile on my face, “I fell the first day I met you.”
⋆ ★⋆ ★
AHHH, I hope y'all like this one because I do!!! and if you guys want to see the song series pleaseee let me know!!! thank you for the love and support!!!! >_<

!3rd person! 
-5 years ago-
Matt smiled as he flung the stick into the water, looking to his best friend who stood next to him afterwards.
“How was that one?” The pair was maybe 14 or 15, not quite old enough to be out by themselves, but yet here they were, out at 2 in the morning.
“That one was a little bit better. I think the problem is that you’re throwing a stick.” She laughed and bent down to grab a rock before flinging it into the water, the rock going impressively far.
“Oh. Yeah that might be it.” He chuckles at his own dumb actions but shuts up as he watches her throw the rock in awe.
“That was a really good throw.”
“Thanks.” They turned to each other with huge smiles on their faces for a few seconds before bursting out laughing for no reason, just for the laughs.
After calming down from their laughing fit, the pair lays in the grass next to each other, looking at the stars.
“Are you going to get married one day?” It was such a wide and complex question for a 15 year old, but Matt couldn’t help but ponder at the question as he turned his head to the girl lying next to him.
“I don’t know. Maybe. Maybe I’ll marry you one day.” Those were serious words for Matt, but to help the mood, he laughs at it and soon the girl joins him.
“Maybe. Who knows what the future holds.”
----
-Present day-
!Reader’s POV!
I let out a breath and watched as the air left my mouth in the cold air.
I check my phone again.
Maybe he forgot?
I sigh. There’s no way Matt would’ve forgotten to come pick me up, he must be busy then.
I shoot off another text, this time to Chris.
Me: are you guys busy rn? Chris: yeah, we’re stuck in a meeting, and everyone’s phone is dead but mine 🤦🏻‍♂️ Me: oh, okay. Just let me know when you’re out. 
I drop my arm back to my side before looking around, again.
This is not how I planned to spend my afternoon. Waiting for a guy to come pick me up while I wait in the cold.
I mean, I get it. He’s a busy man, but that doesn’t stop a girl from hoping.
And what sucks, is there’s no benches around for miles. And there’s frost everywhere, and it’s cold.
---
!Matt POV!
This sucks. I should be on my way to pick her up. Not stuck in some useless surprise meeting.
I thought about going to the bathroom and just leaving, but then how would Chris and Nick get home?
I sigh and look at the clock, 5:53.
Only 7 more minutes.
Chris’s phone goes off, because he always has to have his ringer on.
“Sorry.” He mumbles as he picks it up and turns off his ringer, but he’s texting someone, that much I can tell.
Chris looks up at me from across the table. Seeming to have known what I was thinking, he mouths her name and it clicks.
I nod and turn my attention back to Laura as she’s wrapping up the meeting, cleaning up, all that fun stuff.
---
!Reader POV!
My phone buzzes in my hand and I’m quick to check it.
Chris: we’ll be out of here by 6, we’ll scoop you up on the way back to ours. Me: that works with me :)
I cross my arms over my chest, this sweatshirt was doing nothing for the cold biting at my skin.
Now, I wait.
--
After about 10-ish more minutes of waiting, I hear the music before I hear the car. 
I roll my eyes and chuckle to myself at Chris’s choice of song before I see the car pull up in front of me.
“I’m sorry I didn’t come get you sooner, we got stuck in a surprise meeting.” Matt apologizes when he rolls down the window.
I just shrug and walk towards the car, going to the passenger side and getting in the backseat.
“It’s fine. I understand.” I smile at Matt through the rearview mirror as Chris turns the music back up and I hear Nick groan.
--
I sigh gratefully when I step inside the boys’ home, the familiar scent and warmth feeling like home.
We all walk into the living room and Nick splits to his room to edit and to shower while Chris goes to his room and Matt walks into the kitchen. I move to sit in my normal spot on the couch, covering myself in one of the blankets next to me.
“Better?” I look up to Matt and take the water bottle from his hands.
“Warmer.”
“Good.” He smiles and sits down next to me, grabbing the remote and turning the TV on, finding something to watch.
I rest my head on his shoulder as he puts on The Sandlot.
--
I faintly hear mumbling, and feel my body shaking softly.
“Hey, hey, wake up.” I lift my head and open my eyes, blinking them a few times before I can see again.
“Huh?” I must’ve fallen asleep, because what?
As if he could read my thoughts, Matt chuckles.
“Yes. You fell asleep.”
“Oh.” I rub my eyes and flip the blanket off of me, my body being warm from the mini, or not so mini, nap.
I hear Matt chuckle.
I re-open my eyes and look at Matt.
“You hungry?” As if on cue, my stomach growls quietly.
“Well now that you mention it.” I chuckle as he stands up from the couch and extends his hands to me. I take them and stand up, stretching as he goes and grabs the car keys.
I slip my shoes back on and we walk to the garage and get in the car.
--
After a bit of driving around, we found a lake like the one we had back home in Boston.
We get our food and we go sit at the picnic table near the water.
“We haven’t really had a lot of time together lately.”
I swallow the bite I was chewing and nod.
“Yeah, but it’s understandable, you know? You guys just got back from tour, a lot of tiredness, jet-lag, catching up on work.” I shrug.
“I know, but I feel like we just aren’t hanging out as much as we used to. And it feels weird.” I furrow my brows and take a sip of my drink.
“What d’you mean?”
“Well… I don’t know. It just feels off not having you around as much.” Then, something in my brain goes off that makes what he’s saying make sense.
“Are you trying to say you miss me?” I chuckle, even though this is a pretty serious thing.
“Well… I-” He sighs and thinks about it.
“I mean, I guess so. Although, I’m not sure how I miss someone who I see practically all the time.” We both laugh at that.
We go silent and just enjoy both our food and each other’s company. 
I will admit, I haven’t really been around, but they did just get back from tour, a tour I couldn’t go on because of college.
“Well, I guess I have been a bit caught up in school work lately.”
“Yeah but that’s not your fault.”
We fall into silence as we finish our food. 
I get up from the picnic table and sit in the grass, pretty close to the water with my knees up. 
I feel his arm around my shoulders as he sits next to me, pulling me closer to him.
“You remember that one time at the lake in Boston when we were dancing and you pushed me in?” I chuckle at the vivid memory of Matt pushing me into the cold water. I did drag him in with me though so I got my vengeance.
“Yeah I do. You made us both sick for like a week.” I rest my head on his shoulder and I feel his head on top of mine.
I wince at the memory of his mom scolding us as she drove our shivering bodies to the hospital.
It’s moments like these that make life happy.
Just sitting in each other’s arms in the cold air.
“I never got to ask, how was tour?” 
“It was good. I may not have won, but I had fun. That’s all that really matters to me.” 
God, this man makes me fall in love with him more and more. 
“That’s all that should matter. Winner or not, at the end of the day it all matters if you had fun. I’m glad you had fun, and I’m sorry I couldn’t go with you guys.”
“That’s understandable though. You had school, I understand that.” He kisses my head, and I can feel the smile on his lips.
“I love you Matt..” It slips out without warning, but I don’t try to correct myself or take it back. Not when I mean it.
---
!Matt’s POV!
My mind blanks when she speaks. I never thought this would happen.
Am I dreaming?
No, I’m not.
“I-” I can’t seem to form words. The words I’ve wanted to hear from her for so damn long finally here, and I don’t know what to say or do.
I love her too. So, so damn much. But my mind can’t make the words to say it.
“I'm sorry. Just pretend I didn't say that.” She shakes her head and pulls away from me as she starts to stand up.
I shake my head and wrap my arms around her waist, pulling her back down to the ground.
“No. No, don't be. I love you. So much more than you can imagine. I just didn’t know what to say, or how to say it. I froze up.”
---
!Readers POV!
“What?”
“I love you. So fucking much. Ever since we were kids.”
My heart flutters. 
I have no other thoughts than him. Everything about him I’ve loved flashing in my mind all at once.
His smile. His hair. His tattoos. His style. His personality. Just, him.
I wrap my hands around his neck, pulling him to me as I plant my lips on his.
I feel his arms tighten around my waist as he deepens the kiss.
The air no longer feels cold, but warm. 
Warm and filled with love.
He pulls back and rests his forehead against mine, smiling.
“I love you.”

seijoh road trip ¡!
(bc i’m on a super long car ride right now)
let’s start with seating arrangements (assume they’re in an suv or something bc those maniacs would not be able to fit in anything small) 
iwaizumi’s driving (i don’t think this needs an explanation) 
matsukawa’s in the passengers seat. always. he’s the oldest sibling so therefore the front seat is his god-given right, sitting in the back is just too foreign for him
(he’d also put together a pretty nice playlist for the trip let’s be honest) 
kindaichi’s also usually a front seater (when he drives w his family), but with anyone else he prefers the very back row. it’s nice and secluded :)
plus he always sits next to kunimi, and kunimi needs the seclusion
speaking of needs, yahaba gets car sick ridiculously easy, so he needs to be next to a window so he can have easy vomiting access
like actually, the slightest bump or turn will make him throw up. 
watari’s right there next to him (he’s the only one sane enough & versatile enough to handle being in the very center of everything)
oikawa’s sitting behind iwaizumi, partially to be a helpful navigator and partially to annoy the fuck outta him
makki’s in the third row. i don’t have much to say about this, he’s just chill. you could put him on the hood of the car and he’d be all “this is cool man”
kyoutani’s in the trunk lol
he’s a trunk guy?? he’d sit back there with his dog and enjoy being away from everyone (plus he kinda hates the feel of seatbelts, they’re too constrictive)
(“that’s kind of the fucking point kyou”)
(“you are literally turning green go puke your guts out yahaba”)
hanamaki is the king of snacks. chips? he’s got em. chocolates? he’s got em. cookies? he’s got em. that boys bag is the equivalent to mary poppins’, the snacks just keep coming
funnily enough he can never remember to bring a phone charger
(chargers are kunimi’s department) 
kunimi’s blasting music/white noise/anything into his earbuds the entire ride. he NEEDS his shit to be charged because he’s not about to listen to people talking (read: arguing) for hours on end
kindaichi’s always the one who had to go to the bathroom immediately after they leave the rest stop
“why didn’t you go back there??”
“I DIDN’T HAVE TO GO THEN-”  
when everyone falls asleep iwaizumi likes to listen to true crime podcasts
the only thing is, watari is physically incapable of falling asleep in cars (i am projecting) so he just has to listen in horror as a narrator describes the most gruesome, bloody murders he’s ever heard
they accidentally left kindaichi behind once at a gas station (it was only for 5 minutes, but he sobbed uncontrollably)
after that they made sure to do a head count at every stop
every half hour oikawa will get bored and make them all play games like i spy, 20 questions, truth or dare (mostly truths), etc. 
cue kyouhaba crawling over the seats to beat the shit out of each other during punch buggy
kunimi’s splayed over kindaichi for half of the trip
so hanamaki will be having a conversation with kindaichi and trying so hard to ignore the fact that kunimi’s head is in his lap and the former is combing his fingers through the latters hair 
oikawa switches out to drive so that iwaizumi can sleep for a bit, but ends up screaming at some dumb crap another car did and is banned from the wheel (road rage oikawa supremacy!)
kyoutani’s the “are we there yet?” person. every ten minutes he’ll ask how much longer until they stop
when they do stop, he’ll just go run a lap or two. then come back ten times happier than before, he just needs to stretch his legs !!
mattsun will look up fun facts about each place they visit to entertain everyone :) he’ll be very “dad”-ish about it, like “woaahh, listen to this kids” and “jeez louise that’s a cool little nugget of information”
(we need more dorky matsukawa he’s a total fucking nerd sometimes)
he likes to recline his seat all the way back just to piss yahaba off (he moves it back upright but only after making the second year say please)
yahaba practically falls to the ground when they pull over at rest stops. everyone will go get food/water and pee and he’ll still be kneeling on the pavement holding his stomach when they get back
(when i said the guy gets car sick i MEANT CAR SICK)
in between podcast episodes, iwaizumi will look back at all his sleeping teammates (and a mortified watari) and just think about how much he loves his friends :))

the (real) fake boyfriend
Tumblr media
genre: fluff, fake dating au, youtuber au
wc: 1500
warnings: none! just kissing (barely)
a/n: HI THIS FIC IS FOR THE neosecretsanta event for @flowerboykun! uhhh this is very late. also, this didn't come out as good as i envisioned and seems a little rushed but i hope u enjoy nonetheless.
Day 1: The Plan
Ever since you started your Youtube channel, you’ve been pretty stress-free, with no school, no worrying about grades, and no worrying about having to be on time for a job. Life was going smoothly for you - until now
You were on the run. 
On the run from being used as a marketing scheme. Your management wants you to announce your relationship with Mark Tuan, a fellow YouTuber who makes gaming content. It was every girl’s dream to be with Mark. His Youtube comments are flooded with girls swooning over his every move. However, you decided you’re not falling for that. You're not even romantically associated with Mark. 
The only way to get out of this was to suddenly announce to your manager that you have a boyfriend that you haven’t told them about yet! So your only option now was to bribe your best friends/assistants to find you some candidates for your fake boyfriend. 
You explained everything to Jaemin and Miriah over what was supposed to be just an innocent best-friend lunch date. “Okay, Here’s the deal. I’m gonna need both of you to help find guys that can be my fake boyfriend,” Miriah’s face lit up as you explained but after thinking for a minute, she scowled in Jaemin’s direction. “You want him to find you a boyfriend?” Jaemin opened his mouth to protest but Miriah cut him off before he could even say anything. “He can’t even get himself a girlfriend. How about this? He finds the candidates, I’ll help interview them with you and then one of us can make the contract” 
“Sounds good to me” 
_________________________________________________________________________
Day 2: Interviewing The Candidates
“Okay,” You adjusted things on your makeshift interview table “Send the first one in” 
The first candidate was Johnny, he was tall with a lot of muscles, brown eyes, a sharp jawline, and soft cat-like features. 
The second candidate was Jaehyun, also tall, also had a lot of muscles, brown eyes, a square-ish jawline and he had soft peach-like skin. 
The third (and final) candidate was Jeno, he was slightly above average height (Miriah assumed around 5 '9 - 5' 10), was very muscular, had an adorable eye smile, and was very sweet. 
Jaemin popped inside your office room as soon as Jeno walked out. “That was the last one” You nodded, looking down at the notes you had taken on each guy. “I liked Jeno” you finally spoke. “Me too but I don’t know, he was sweet but something wasn’t clicking” Miriah admitted while she texted her boyfriend, Samuel, giving him all the details of all the candidates. 
“Hey, Miriah?” Jaemin narrowed his eyes at her, which went unnoticed by Miriah who was too busy tapping away at her phone 
“Yeah?” 
“I don’t recall you being the one looking for a boyfriend here! We didn’t ask if he clicked for you or not” 
“You know wha-” 
“SHUT UP!” You interrupted their bickering before it went too far. “Jaemin, is there anyone else?” He thought for a second before calling someone on his phone and stepping out of the office. 
“That little bitch” Miriah grumbled. 
_________________________________________________________________________
Day 3: #NewBoyfriendCheck 
When Jaemin introduced you to the only other option he had left, you didn’t expect it to be Haechan, Jaemin’s other best friend. 
“Hi, I’m Donghyuck, but everyone calls me Haechan” 
“I know. I’ll be right back” you excused yourself before stepping out to where Jaemin was supposed to be standing. Instead, He was leaning on the door, trying to hear whatever he could from your conversation so as soon as you opened the door, Jaemin almost came tumbling on top of you. “Jaemin! You little fucker!”  He sheepishly smiled at that. 
“So? How’d it go” 
“He’s the one Jaemin!” You were beyond happy at the thought that you would be free from having to announce Mark Tuan as your boyfriend now. “Wait! hold on, I have to go tell him” And you left Jaemin standing confused. 
“Okay! You’re fit for the role of my on-screen boyfriend or whatever. I just need to you sign this contract” You handed him the contract which consisted of basic details about the purpose of your arrangement and rules. 
Rules
Be honest. Be open and honest with each other
Restrict your feelings. In other words, keep your feelings to yourself. 
No dating anyone else (even if it's real) 
You can sleep with other people.
This is a business relationship. No feelings involved.  
“Oh wait! One more thing before you leave?” Haechan cranes his head to look at you, smiling slightly before you continue “So considering we will be in a ‘relationship’” You start, doing air quotes with your fingers at the word relationship, “That’d also require you to move in with me for a bit. You know so that my manager is convinced it’s real and I'm not making it up” He looked taken back for a second before he flashed a genuine smile and nodded. 
“Okay, when do you want me to bring my stuff over?” 
_________________________________________________________________________
Day 6: Internet Famous
“And he moved in???” Your manager shrieked, his head in his hands as he paced around anxiously. You frowned “You literally wanted me to date Mark Tuan for publicity. Why are you so fussy about my actual boyfriend living with me?” 
“Well living with your boyfriend is going to lead to I don't know! Babies or some shit” 
Haechan scoffed from where he sat next to you with his arm thrown over your shoulder. “We’re smarter than that, we use protection” 
Your eyes widened as you turned to look at him considering you both have not even done as much as a kiss. Your manager’s expression matched yours but he seemed more disgusted than you “You know what, do what you want. Just no babies…please.”  
Ever since you posted Haechan on your Instagram, your popularity shot up immediately, your comments filled with everyone complimenting how good the both of you looked together and such. Of course, there were some rude comments but you didn't really pay any mind to them, you were just happy about the outcome of a single post. 
“You know what we should do?” You started, looking over at Haechan once again “Start an OnlyFans together?” He wiggled his eyebrows suggestively at you, making you shove him away from you in faux disgust “No you freak! I was gonna say record a YouTube video together” 
“Oh, That works too” 
_________________________________________________________________________
Day 7: First Kiss?
You sat down on your bed editing the Youtube video you shot yesterday, across from Haechan who was currently sitting in front of his laptop, playing some game with Jaemin. You kept replaying the part where Haechan “accidentally” stole a kiss from you as you were doing his makeup, something about the way he just grabbed your face and kissed you as you worked on setting his brows with a brow gel gave you butterflies, no matter how many times you watched it over and over again. 
“Jaemin! Can you stop fucking shooting me you freak” Haechan whined from across the room, interrupting you from watching the clip for the millionth time in the past hour. “Haechan stop screaming please, I’m trying to edit,” Haechan whined louder when you said that. “No one loves me here!” You groaned loudly, shutting your computer and throwing it beside you on the bed. “What will it take for you to shut up?” He pretended to think for a bit before he heard Jaemin scream “Make her kiss you!” from his headset. “Hmm, I’ll shut up if i get a kiss” He tried to make it more convincing by pouting at you “Ew, never mind, keep screaming” You picked up your laptop and walked out to the living room to continue editing. 
“I don’t know how long I can do this”
_________________________________________________________________________
Day 8: Double date 
“I don’t like that Samuel guy” Haechan scoffed as soon as you parted ways with Miriah and her boyfriend after your double date for your YouTube video. You nodded as the both of you walked over to your favorite coffee shop. “I don’t get why Miriah is still with him, I’m a better boyfriend than he is” Haechan walked into the coffee shop behind you before throwing his arm around your shoulders, “I think you agree” you shrugged his arm off your shoulders “Dude, you’re my fake boyfriend” 
“Tryna change that?” 
“I mean…” 
“Dude, I’m tryna rizz you up” He frowned, placing his arms on both of your shoulders and touching his forehead with yours,
“You should be mine”  You failed to hold in your laughter, “If you want to kiss me that bad, just say so” 
“I do” 
“Do it, pussy” and with that, he pulled you in for a soft kiss, he slowly slides his hands across your body and then rests one hand on your cheek giving you butterflies. 
And that was, the most perfect kiss was with your new (actual) boyfriend

fluff, idiot reader, reader who can't say no, choose your own adventure-ish
Part 1 / Steve's Ending / Jim's Ending
Tumblr media
That night you had a fitful sleep. You couldn’t stop thinking about who you would choose and how you were supposed to let the other guys know you weren’t interested. You gave up trying to get any decent sort of sleep at 4am. You instead choose to hop up and get ready for work. You showered, dressed, had breakfast and your morning coffee and waited for the time to roll around for you to go to work. When they time finally rolled around you collected all the essays Carol left you to mark and packed them into your bag. A smile playing on your face. You couldn't wait to see her reaction when all her students got A's it was also a great distraction to the current situation. You grinned as you made the quick walk from your apartment to your car. The whole drive to Hawkins High you kept glancing over your bag. If Eddies plan worked and this landed Carol in hot water you would have to find a way to thank him. When you reached the school you quickly grabbed your bag and hurried through the doors. You had not taken 5 steps inside when you were stopped by a voice behind you.
“Ah Miss y/l/n just who I wanted to see”
“Of Principle Higgins sir how can I help you?” You turned around facing him
“I need you to cover Miss Perkins English classes today she has come down sick and can't make it”
“Oh I would be delighted to sir” You smiled a little too excited
“Okay well her classes rotate with yours so you should be fine let me know if you need any help” Principle Higgins walked off towards his office
Taking Carols classes meant you weren't going to be leaving early today like a normal Monday but at least you could pull off Eddies plan without Carol knowing until it was way, way too late to change anything. You were so going to have to track him down after school let out to tell him though, he was going to freak out. You headed off to your classroom to begin setting up for the day. You knew you were going to need to use your time this morning as well as recces and some of lunch to make sure all the classes went smoothly. The bell rang at 8:30 and most of the students filled into your room. Actually it was almost all of the students except of course the usual suspects Lucas, Dustin, Mike, Will and Max. About 5 minutes into your lesson the classroom door slammed open and all 5 of them came crashing into the class tripping over each other, yelling and screaming.
“Oh hay y/n, uh sorry we're late we all kinda slept in” Dustin spoke up
“You all slept in? I find that hard to believe” You crossed your arms trying to be serious but at the same time wanted to laugh at them
“Yeah, we were playing DnD at Eddies trailer like all day yesterday and it got super late so Eddie let us stay because his a really nice guy like that and anyway as I said he let us stay overnight and we all really slept in and it's like extremely difficult to wake Eddie up cause he sleeps almost completely naked and none of us really wanted to go wake him so we had to flip a coin and Mike lost but he was way to much of a wuss to go into Eddies room so...”
“Dustin, Dustin, ssh just take a seat and see me after class, way to much information dude geez” it took all your strength not to laugh and the image of an almost naked Eddie wasn't helping either.
The party apologised and took their seats while you resumed the lesson. Today's lesson was a practical lesson. After you re-explained the instruction everyone broke off into their lab groups to do the experiment. Many of the other students where whispering amongst each other about Dustin using your first name and the casualness between the group and you. The obvious concern was if their all friends with the teacher does that mean the teacher will give them an easy pass. But just because they were your students and you guessed your friends doesn't mean they were going to get an easy pass. Senior science passed quickly but before you could move on to Eddies plan you needed to speak with Dustin and the others. The group remained seated and waited for all the other students to file out of the classroom before saying anything.
“Hay we're really sorry for being late to class it wont' happen again” Mike spoke up when the last student left the class
“I don't care about that” You said “Just try not to make me almost burst out laughing in front of my class again”
“We can do that” Lucas smiled
“Great whose class do you have next?”
“Carols english class” Dustin rolled his eyes
“Oh sweet so I'm teaching her class today so I won't have to write you guys a note, I just have one quick guestion”
“Sweet best teacher her” Max cheered
“Whats your question?” Mike asked
“Where does Eddie live?”
“He has the trailer across from Max out at the trailer park” Will spoke up
“We're headed out to Max's after school if you want us to show you?” Dustin offered
“Yeah sure I'll drive yous but uh someone may need to sit on the floor or the back seat will be very crowded”
“Oh Eddies going to pick us up so we can split between the cars” Dustin said
“I am so going with y/n I am not getting in the back of Eddies van again” Max said
The kids slung their bags over there shoulders and you all began walking in one large group to the next class room. Once they were seated you retrieved the large pile of essays from your bag. As you called the roll you had them come up and collect their essays. Whispers broke out all over the classroom as students started to realise they all got As. You had a small giggle at their excitement before calming them down and explain the class for the day. It was simple read the next few chapters in the book they had been reading and answer a simple question for homework or they could do it during class if they had time. When the recces bell range you were super excited about the rest of the day and how the rest of the students would react to their As. Recces was spent preparing for your next science lesson and picking chapters and questions for the next 2 English classes. The science lesson went by in a blur due to your excitement to get to the next English lesson. You may have been more excited and moved faster then your students when the bell rang to signal the end of class. Normally this is the point of the day where you would be headed to the staff room to finalize your paperwork for the day so you could leave at lunch time. But instead you had 3 more English classes all of which you decided to keep simple. Read the chapters answer the question. Most of Carols students wouldn't be taking home homework tonight if they worked fast enough. You took a seat at the teachers desk called for silence and began calling names and handing out essays. Just like before the As were met with excited whispers. Rinse and repeat until the last bell of the day sounded. A smirk broke out on your face as you raced to pack your bag and get out of there for the day. When you entered the hallway you were met with a commotion.
“Excuse me! Coming through! Move people move!” Dustin's voice rang out down the hall
Soon the group of misfit teens stood before you Dustin in the lead.
“You lot ready to go” You laughed
“Been ready to leave since I walked in this morning” Dustin threw him arms around in over exaggerated movements
“Great I just need to drop some stuff in the office and we'll be good to go if someone wants to go let Eddie know the plans” You looked between the kids
“I'll go” Dustin said running off
You shook your head at the boy and started towards the office with the others trailing behind you. They all apparently wanted to go in your car because they didn't trust Eddies driving, not to mention his van didn't have any seats in the back. You made your way quickly to the office, dropped all your paperwork on your desk and left before anyone could pull you up. You quickly made your way to the school parking lot the group still chatting away behind you. They always seemed to have something to chat about. You'd even noticed them passing letters in class but you never pulled them up on it because the always done there work and it didn't really seem like much of a distraction. You opened the doors to the parking lot to find Eddie conveniently parked next to your car. Dustin had already climbed into Eddies van and was impatiently yelling at you all out the window. You and the kids basically jogged over to your car. You opened up the car from them before quickly turning to Eddie who was standing patiently beside his van.
“Hay Munson” You smiled
“Hay y/l/n did the plan work?” Eddie had an evil smirk
“Thats for me to know and you to find out, now get in that death trap and lead the way” You laughed climbing into your car.
Eddie quickled climbed into his van and roared the engine to life. He speed out of the parking lot, leaving you to curse and try to speed to keep up with him. The last thing you needed was a speeding ticket or worse to be pulled over by the sheriff. But you made it to the trailer park without incident. Eddie brought his van to a stop outside what you guessed to be his trailer. You pulled up alongside the van. The teens immediately started falling over each other to get out of the car. Once out they ran screaming at each other to a trailer almost directly across from the one you were park outside of.
“I'm guessing that's Max's place?” You said to Eddie
“It sure is, and this is my castle” Eddie stretched his arms out while looking at his trailer “So sweetheart is there a reason you wanted to know where I lived?” Eddie smirked at you
“Oh well I wanted to come tell you how your plan worked out”
Eddie motioned to the front door of the trailer. He went first holding open the front door like a gentleman. Someone had really raised this man right. You stepped into Eddie trailer and couldn't help but look around. You found yourself stood in Eddies open lounge and kitchen area. The walls where decorated with mugs and caps. His uncle Wayne's he told you when he noticed you look. He guided you down the hallway that stood just off the kitchen. The hallway was small and had only two other doors in it. One lead to a tiny bathroom and the other was Eddie's room. And it was exactly what you thought Eddies room would look like. The guitar he played the other night hung on the wall next to a mirror that was almost covered in everything heavy metal. He had heavy metal band posters on the walls and a recorder player with a large pile of records and cassettes next to it. The room was a messy, the bed unmade. It truly matched the man that lived in it.
“I thought you said your Uncle lived here too?” You said
“Oh he sleeps on the couch, his never really home anyway his always working” Eddie shrugged “Now how did our plan go?”
You gave Eddie a big grin before jumping at him. Eddie despite being taken by surprise was able to react fast enough to catch you wrapped his arms under you butt to hold you up. You wrapped your arms around his neck and your legs around his waist.
“It worked perfectly Eds!” You giggled “And guess what Carol wasn't even there today so she had no idea what's just happened”
“Yeah Henderson wouldn't shut up about his A” Eddie chuckled
You stopped giggling and moved back from Eddie. He placed you gently on the floor but kept you in his arms. One of his hands came up to move a stray hair away from your face. Before you could react his lips where on yours. The kiss was full of love and passion. You found your hands moving back around Eddies neck and coming to a rest in his wild curly hair. His arms where wrapped around you waist holding you firmly against him. You never wanted that kiss to end. There was something in that kiss, something that seemed to make your decision for you. Your heart wanted Eddie but your brain was screaming at you that you couldn't go into a relationship with Eddie built on lies. You needed to tell him about the other dates. Steve was right they all deserved to know. You broke the kiss. You pulled back and looked up at Eddie.
“I'm sorry I couldn't help myself” Eddie blushed
“No Eddie I'm sorry” You sighed looking down to the carpet not wanting to face the man in front of you. The man whose heart you were probably about to shatter.
“You've done nothing wrong” Eddie placed a finger under your chin forcing you to look up at him.
“I lied to you Eddie” Your eyes started to fill with tears.
“Lied? About what?” Eddie tried to chuckle
“I did go on a date with Jonathan” You said “And with Steve”
“Shit, shit, shit” Eddie put his hands on his head and turned away from you
“I'm sorry Eds, I also went on a date with Billy and Hop over the weekend too” Might as well give him the whole picture you thought
“4 other dates, Jesus Christ!” Eddie was trying to keep his voice down but he was now pacing his room “I...I need time to think”
Eddie took off out of his trailer leaving you alone. You heard his van roar to life. The sound tear your heart to shreds. You fought back the tears that were about to fall and left Eddies trailer. You walked across the road to Max's trailer. You could see the teens peeking out a window clearly interested in what was happening between you and Eddie. But when they seen him speed off and you come walking out on your own they quickly ducked away from the window clearly not wanting to get caught. You knocked on the door of Max's trailer and she was super quick to answer.
“Oh y/n your still here” Max tried to act like she hadn't just seen you walk across the road from Eddies
“Yeah, uh, I'm actually about to head off and just wanted to see if anyone here needed a lift home” You said trying to sound happy
“No we're good here, Steve and Nancy where going to give us all lifts home” Dustin called out
“No problems, see you at school tomorrow” You called back
You waved to Max and made your way back to your car. You made the drive back to your apartment slow. So slow in fact that you got pulled over by none other then the sheriff himself. You cursed silently to yourself and wiped at the tears that had stained your face. You pulled the car over safety, Hop pulling in close behind you. Hopped climbed out of his car and walked towards your face head down not paying attention writing something in a note book. He only looked up when he got to your car.
“You do realise you were driving way below the speed limit right?” He said looking up “y/n what are you doing all the way out here?”
“Breaking hearts apparently” You sniffled
“Oh hay honey what's the matter?” Hop opened your car door and kneeled down beside you
“I just told Eddie Munson that I went on dates with not only him but you and 3 other guys this weekend” You spilled out before you could stop your self.
“Oh well that's impressive” Hop chuckled
“Your not mad”
“Oh I'm fricken' furious” Hop stood up “But ain't much I can do about it, just try to go the speed limit” Hop slammed your door a little too hard before walking back to his patrol car.
You sat in silence for a few minutes gathering your thoughts before starting on your way back home. Just as you pulled into your parking spot out the front of your building it started to pour down. Just what you needed you thought. The weather was just as miserable as you. You sat in your car and watched the rain run down the windscreen. You left your umbrella inside and you really didn't feel like getting wet. The plan was to wait for a break in the rain then make a run for it. You sat in your car for almost an hour with no signs of the rain stopping. It was then that you spotted a familiar mop of curly hair. Except the usually wild bouncy curl's where now soaked and flat clinging to the face of their owner. Eddie Munson was running through the rain and right to your door. He didn't see you sitting in the car. Instead he ran straight past and under the small amount of cover the front awning of your building provided. He rang the buzzer for your apartment and waited. You sat in shock, your brain racing to process what your eyes were seeing. Eddie pressed your buzzer a few more times but when there came no answer he dropped his shoulders and walked back out into the rain. You couldn't let him leave, you needed to apologise for everything, you needed to try to make things right. In one swift movement you were out of the car and standing on the side walk. Eddie had his back to you, walking slowly away.
“Eddie!” You shouted
Eddie spun on his heels. He jogged back over to you while you stood frozen in the rain. It was like a scene from a sappy romantic movie.
“You didn't answer the door” Eddie said coming to a stop in front of you
“I was sitting in my car” You said pointing to your car
“Look y/n I'm so sorry for everything” Eddie grabbed your hands “I love you, you drive me crazy in all the best ways, I want to be with you, I want to be yours and only yours forever, I spoke to Steve, Jonathan and Billy, I told them what you did and I told them I wouldn't force you to pick and they shouldn't either. It should be up to you. I don't know why you choose to go on so many dates, I don't know if you even liked any of us to begin with, I don't know if you love me as much as I love you, or if you want to be with me or if you've chosen someone else. All I do know is I couldn't let you go without tell you exactly how I feel”
You didn't know how to responded to Eddies speech. You didn't think there was any words good enough to say to something like that, so you did the one thing you knew would get across what you were feeling. You wrapped your arms around Eddie neck and pulled him into a kiss. Something Eddie accepted without delay. He wrapped his arms around your waist pulling you flush against him. Your lips moved perfectly together like two pieces of a puzzle. You were both completely soaked by this point but neither of your cared. Anyone walking past would think you were trying to completely every romantic cliché ever invented. You eventually pulled apart trying to fill your lungs with much needed air. Eddie smiled down at you still holding you in his arms. This all felt so right. You knew you found the one for you.
“Do you want to come inside and have a hot shower?” You asked
“That would be wonderful it's freezing out here” Eddie laughed as you ran to the front door of youe apartment.

{"are you gonna play Resident Evil?"}
Eren steadily reads the incoming notification on his hours long running stream. He wanted to talk to the chat after playing gta 5 heist challenges with other popular streamer friends. He shifts back in his gaming chair taking a deep breath. Then slowly rubs his upper lip while shifting his emerald eyes towards his bedroom celling, pondering on the question. After a minute deciding on what his answer would be, he quickly looks back into the camera.
"dunno, depends which one you guys want me to play". He answers, with fiddling with a fallen piece of hair that came out of the bun that rested at the back of his head.
He then scoots up towards his monitor and looks at the other fast passing comments deciding which ones he should answer out loud.
{" I love your recent COD stream"}
" thank you so much, I was thinking abou-"
He was interrupted by knocking on is door, he then turned towards his door " who is it? ' he shouts with a sing-song tone. "it's y/n" responded the person behind the door.
"shit", Eren curses internally. Rolling his eyes, he turns the chair back towards his camera. He knew that any kind of female interaction he had while streaming would get the comment section raging.
From the most recent, when Mikasa called him while he was on stream (in which he forgot to mute his mic) asking about her bracelet she left in the house. It ended with him trying to settle the chat down while they spammed the nick name "Mommy Mika".
Mikasa found out through twitter posts with their captions assuming she was Eren's mystery girl. Mikasa honestly didn't mind too much but that couldn't have been said the same about Eren. He wanted to keep his channel solely about him. he didn't need to see trending hashtags about who he was potentially involved with.
He whispers into the camera, " please behave, I'm begging you guys". he shifts back into his chair while turning his chair towards the door.
" come in"
The knob of his door then turns while the door itself was being pushed open to reveal his female friend y/n. You wearing a tank top with tight pajama shorts that stops at your upper plush thighs. Eren quickly scans over your lower half before meeting your eyes. Your nipples were prodding through your shirt. The ac that was blasting through out the house was not helping 
" dinner is rea- oh I didn't know you were streaming, my bad" you nervously start to back out of the room after realizing you interrupted him.
" no no you're fine, I'll come down in a second" he turn towards his monitor quickly scanning over his comment section
{ hrdgrinder: oh she's fine alright  }
{ erensrighthand…..man: GAHHHH DAMN }
{durtyyyskeetrr: lawd have merthy🤓}
{ sckinEJawf: ik he hittin that }
{ eren'sdhandruff: I'm no better than any man  }
{ ilikebignoobs: thats your girl? }
{ xxxavier: 🥵🥵🥵🥵🥵}
{ nico2much: you cheating on Mommy Mika}
Those were just a handful of what Eren read of what was being said. Glancing at the camera viewer, he looking past himself. What was shown was you, but the camera only showed everything past your lower lip. In nervousness, he shifted his sight away from his monitor.
" okay, everyone is down stairs waiting for you, they don't wanna start eating before you do", you smile gently.
" thanks I'll be down soon", Eren smiles back. He then turns back around, dismissing you. Which leads you  proceeding to close his door.
See, Eren was a guy who respected all his female friends, he treated them like they were " one of the guys" but he likes to play around a bit with you and Mikasa from time to time. However, with you, he liked teasing you. He liked the way you would whine and complain that he was " doing too much ". He was sometimes faced with a physical consequence like a subtle pinch or slap you gave him. Or, on some occasions, you would innocently shake your head and smile.
Then, Eren thought of something. " y/n", he called out to you before you could grab the handle to his door. " hm?", she pauses.
Eren smiles, "maybe I could introduce her to the stream just to make the chat meet her in a proper manner".
Eren honestly wanted to keep all his female friends away from his streams. The incident with Mikasa was truly a mess but what can he do when they have already seen more than half of you body. Then it came to him. His streams did spike when a girl is even mentioned. He didn't want to use you for views but involuntarily, that was already done. Maybe he could compromise and this interaction could go right and benefit you and him? He could get more views and you could have a social media boost.  Of course he had to put his own spin on this with a bit of teasing. He was risking his life for his stream, as he know that he would get the beating of his life.
"what do you want eren?" a sigh falls from your mouth.
"come here" , Eren says, keeping his lower half in the chair and only his head turned towards you. You frowns as you puts your hands on your hips.
" why?", you snaps with a annoyance and squint your eyes. You knew he was starting to tease you.
" don't you wanna say hi to the stream?", He smirks while flashing his top teeth.
"no eren, I'm not playing with you right now, I'm hungry as hell and we're all waiting for y-"
"please y/n it'll be quick", he pouts his bottom lip.
You pick a hangnail on your thumb while contemplating if you should fall through on his pleads.
"hmmm, I don’t know"
"do it for them" he presses on
You stares at Eren. She honestly wouldn't care, only if there wasn't thousands of people over hearing your conversation. But, you caved in, you would hate if that could stain their first impression of you  . Internally you're swearing him down that you’ll beat his ass on his stream with no hesitation if he tries anything funny.
"you're so ugly" you says while rolling your eyes.
Eren thanks you with a gentle smile.
You walks over to him stopping right beside his chair with your hands on your hip. The chat's view of the camera shows your mid to lower half of your body. You were on the far right of Eren. Eren's seated body took up most of the view. Eren noticed as he stares at the camera. He thinks it's a good proper reveal clears his throat as he begins to speak.
"chat give your warmest welcome to y/n, y/n say hello to the chat". Eren smiles as he pushes his chair to the side to let you come to the camera view.
You stoops down on your knees beside Eren's chair, then tilts your head towards the camera
"hi guys", you smile sheepishly.
"what do I do? what do I say ? why did I agree to this- technically I didn't but still…. he set me up bad"
You didn't know how introduce yourself. Of course you has socials, but that doesn't mean you’re the best at socializing with practically strangers. You’re most comfortable when you are around your friend group. As they've known you since middle school, so automatically they were somewhat like family to you. Of course, you would take back that comparison as you would often playfully flirted with everyone.
However, when it came to Eren there was always a lingering feeling of tension after the teasing on his behalf and playfully flirting on yours. But, was you gonna do anything about it? No, that's for sure. Everything is strictly platonic, well......that's at least what you wants to convince yourself with.
Unexpected, the chat was oddly respectful. The chat spammed with all sorts of hellos, hey’s, hi's , and waving emojis. Eren smirks as another idea pops in his head.
"y/n", his voice booming around the room  knocking you out of your internal thoughts. He looks down at you.
"hm?"
"you look at bit uncomfortable down there", he pats his lap. "sit here" he says while trying to keep a straight face.
You could’ve punched him right then and there but something told you that, that would be Eren’s official stamp of “winning”.
You looks at the chat then back at him. You knew he would try something, you had a feeling from the start. 
"I knew it , since he wants to play, I’ll give him a game. He really thinks he'll have the upper hand, not Satan today.... not today".
You shrugged  “okay, sure”
You grabbed the arm of his chair pulling yourself up. Then placing a hand on Eren’s stomach while walking round to the front of the chair. Eren smirks as he assumes his plan has now kick started. 
You slowly bends over Eren’s lap, your tank top dips low in the camera view. 
You sinisterly grin. 
“Let the games begin”

Yuletide Diorama (Part 1/3)
(Warning: contains g/t brainrot and gay people) (there are also some mentions of violence and drug use/needles, although nothing actually happens) (i promise this is a wholesome story) (tagged it anyway just to be safe)
It was a crisp, beautiful winter day. Snow flurries drifted from the sky, showering the city in a thin layer of white powder and snowflakes. The clouds hung over Santa Lucia, its residents clad in thick winter coats as the temperature dropped and the desert turned into a beautiful frozen landscape.
And as much as she’d loved to have been outside enjoying it, the winter day had come and gone.
 And Chie still couldn’t relax.
She sat on her couch, trying to get herself up to finish packing. Her “5-minute break” had turned into an hour-ish of watching Garfield reruns mindlessly while trying not to think about the enormous, crushing anxiety for the next 2 weeks of her life.
It was time to visit for Christmas…and the New Year. But not her family – it was her girlfriends’, and she had to make a good first impression. Then, it was back to college without a real break in between. Of course, she figured they’d be lovely, but that didn’t stop her mind from creating an ever-growing list of everything she could do wrong.
And she’d have to leave her cozy little apartment and her blanket nests and plushies to get on a plane in 7 hours.
She glanced at the clock up on the wall. Ten-thirty, wait, TEN THIRTY? When did seven hours turn into five and a half? And really, that five-and-a-half was more like two; she never liked to be less than three hours early for a flight – let alone an international one.
“Shit!” She exclaimed, jumping up from the couch. She walked past her potted plants, her homemade tapestries hanging up on the walls of her aging apartment. Covering all the cracks and dust and chipping off-white paint.
The complex looked beautiful from the outside; the crisp adobe walls and Tecate-tiled roofs would give the impression it was anything other than among the cheapest and worst-kept communities in all of Santa Lucia – and that was saying something. It wasn’t fenced in, and if Chie left her windows unlocked or literally anything outside, it was gone the next morning without a trace. The trash bins were full of needles carefully pushed under cardboard and plastic, so they weren’t visible to potential renters. Chie may have fallen asleep to loud confrontations, gunshots, and blasting music, but to her…it was home.
She opened the fridge, glancing through quickly. “I’m so sorry, guys, I lost track of time,”. She couldn’t hear her roommate’s responses from this distance, but it sounded like they said something.
It would seem unfair to cook for them as regularly as Chie did, which was every morning and night, especially given the three of them didn’t pay rent or do much of anything, truthfully.
Something she would have difficulty explaining to anyone, let alone her girlfriends' family, without mentioning the fact her roommates were all an inch and a half tall.
They lived in a small cabinet she’d bought secondhand and placed on the kitchen counter. It had a glass front so they could see her TV screen, but affixed with small curtains she installed so they could have privacy. They each got one shelf in the cabinet with a bed and their own little decorations.
Chie reached over and popped open the door. Two had their curtains drawn, but Mimi was still awake.
Even among girls an inch and a half tall, Mimi was rather short. Some of the miniature items given to her by Chie and previous apartment owners were still too big; the toy bed designed to be a twin felt like a California King to her.
“What’cha gonna make?” She asked in a quiet, high-pitched voice; she wasn’t acting, though, she simply sounded like that. She ruffled around her long, thick wavy black hair; it was matted in an enormous bedhead, as it usually was.
“I…um…” Chie looked at her fridge and freezer. It was mostly empty – it felt like a cartoon, half-expecting to see a fish bone and apple core, but truthfully all she had were condiments, a half-consumed bottle of soda, and some frozen tater tots.
Everything else had already been set aside for her roommates for her trip. All it really took was like, a single can of food, a bottle of water, and a container of miscellaneous leftovers. Most of that would still be unconsumed come the end of her trip. But eating it now would be needlessly cruel.
She stared at her empty countertops.  She wouldn’t get paid again until January and everything would go bad before she got back, so a grocery run was out of the question. Let alone the time pressure she was already under.
Mimi stared up at her with her puppy-dog eyes. Again, not intentionally – she just looked like that. Her irises were so dark they blended with her pupils, which Chie had a hard time resisting the cuteness of.
“…I’m sorry, I…can’t make anything.”
“What will you eat, then? Aren’t you hungry?” She asked. “Are you eating when you get to your parents’?” She walked across the countertop in her pajamas – a long dark green dress that Chie ripped off a doll and stitched  up in the back.
“…I’ll, um…pick something up on the way to the airport…or in it, while I’m waiting! Don’t worry! You guys are all fed, right?”
“We’ll be okay. Insects and moss, remember?” She smiles, Chie rolling her eyes.
“I’m gonna miss you guys so much…” She giggles a bit, sighing.
“We’ll miss you too! It’s so quiet without you…” Mimi sighs back,, dramatically hunching over. “Can’t you just take us with you?” She looked back up, staring right into her soul.
Chie averted her eyes and nervously fumbled with her hands, tapping her finger against the back of her hand rapidly. “I’m not sure their family would be as accepting. Let alone everything that would happen along the way. You’d have to take a flight, which…I’m sorry. I want to! I really want to!” She fluttered her hands in front of her chest unconsciously, then sucked on the tip of her pointer finger. They’d be so alone, and for the holidays too!
“I-I’m sorry, I-“ Mimi murmured. She gently stepped backwards, her hair falling in front of her face as she approached the steps to her quote-on-quote “bedroom”.
“No, I’m sorry, I just-“ Chie sighed.
“What the fuck are you guys yapping about?” Another tiny voice rang out. The second curtain opened, and Camila wandered out. She stood on the edge of her shelf, staring down at Chie and Mimi. She looked significantly more put-together than either of them, her fingers combing through her short curly hair that she actually brushed.
“I can’t make you guys dinner, and I can’t take you with me to the airport, and, um,” She spoke quickly, as if on the verge of tears, and sniffed.
“Okay, seriously, take a deep breath.” Her slightly annoyed tone was punctuated by both of her hands going up to signal “stop”. She rolled her eyes and slid down the fireman’s pole-esque railing down the side of the shelves, which sat on the opposite side of a very long and very small ladder. “What’s this about taking us to the airport?” She asked as she hit the countertop.
“…You guys would be in danger the entire time. Hundreds, if not thousands of people. Giant people. All around you. Then a few hours three-hundred-thousand inches into the air. Then two weeks in a house total strangers and constant noise. It kills me, let alone Luna.” She pointed over at the closed curtains. Now that she’s said it out loud…it felt even more an impossible task.
The three of them sat in silence for what felt like hours.
“But won’t you get lonely too?” Mimi asked. Chie averted her gaze once more from Mimi’s puppy-dog eyes, attempting to avoid her hypnotic stare as she bit her bottom lip.
“C’mon, girl, don’t do that,” Camila said frustratedly, gently smacking the back of Mimi’s head. She judgmentally stared her down, and she shrank into her shoulders. “It’s not fair to pressure her like that… it’s obviously dangerous and you know she’ll want to say yes.”
“Don’t you wanna see the world? Aren’t you excited at seeing a place outside Santa Lucia?”
“That’s not important!”
“Guys, stop!” Chie shouted over them. The sheer volume of her voice reverberated through the two girls. It was a sonic shockwave, and both immediately and instinctively cowered, covering their ears. “Oh, I-I’m sorry, I…um…I’m thinking that…I could probably take you with me. Maybe.”
Seconds passed. The silence hung heavily in the air for what felt like hours.
“And…?” Camila asked. “Is that, like, the end of the sentence, or…?”
“I have like…some fabric I could wrap you in that could, like, muffle the sound? It should be okay…and don’t worry, Mila… it wasn’t Mimi’s peer pressure. Just’ll be nice to have, um…some company.” She warmly smiled.
“Don’t you have your girlfriend Roselyn for that?” Camila raised an eyebrow. Chie stood quietly for a couple moments, her face looking slightly guilty.
“It’s different! You guys are my friends, it’ll make it even more fun.” She pouted. “I can choose to not bring you guys, you know.”
“So you’re taking us?” Mimi perked up, a wide smile crossing her chubby face. Her eyes glittered with excitement. Camila’s did too, but her expression stayed nonchalant.
“Yes, BUT!” Chie raised up a finger. “You guys HAVE TO stay in my bag and whatever little place I make for you at the house. You CANNOT leave it, okay? Unless I tell you that you can. You…really wouldn’t be ‘seeing the world’ as much as you would, like… a new room,” She sheepishly giggled. It’s such a bad idea… but at least now I don’t have to worry about them falling off the counter or anything. And it’ll make them so so happy, it’s worth it! Chie thought to herself. “And… if Luna wants to stay here, she can. She’ll probably like the quiet.”
“You sure she’ll be okay?” Camila pointed over at the cabinet with her thumb.
Mimi nodded. “She’ll be fine! She’s a smart girl. She can take care of herself plenty.” She bowed to Chie in a cartoonish, overly expressive manner. “Thank you Chi-Chi, thank you, I’m so excited! I’m gonna go pack…shouldn’t take long,” She smiled, running off as fast as her little legs could carry her.
“I’ll…keep an eye on her,” Camila chuckled. “If you wanna change your mind, you know…you can. I’ll calm her down.” She nodded, walking away.  “And I’ll tell Luna the news…and all that.”
Chie smiled to herself.
Maybe this trip wouldn’t be so bad? Travelling to another continent with her four favorite people by her side? It sounded perfect!
Before she could revel in the joy of her new plans, she was immediately reminded that she was going to be picked up in two hours. Roselyn was probably all ready to go by now.
So, she slammed the fridge and sprinted back over to her closet to finish packing.

in honour of april fool’s day (even though its over in my timezone) and also the amount of insane shit that goes on in my life im gonna list a bunch of things that have happened to me and i want you to guess which one is a lie. i would make this a poll but i dont have those yet
when i was like 7-ish i went to the zoo with my neighbor and went to this bird show they put on and i got to race with like 20 other kids against 15 i think turkey vultures. in a footrace. the vultures outran every single one of us. also the zookeeper lady said “don’t trip and fall or they’ll start eating you!” and it scared the shit out of me
when i was in grade 3 i went on a field trip for school and on the bus home my bus driver literally got arrested for drunk driving. with like 30 8 year olds on the bus. it was like 2:45 and we (all age 8) had to stand outside for almost an hour in november. also it was like three blocks away from the school and my house was literally across the street. the distance back to school was very walkable but for some reason they made us wait for another bus to come pick us up and take us back. but the bus was one of those ones that went to each house individually and the neighborhood it operated in was literally across the main street from my school and for some reason instead of taking 5 minutes to drop us off first they made us wait an additional half hour dropping all the other kids off at home before taking us home. then i had to walk almost a km home anyways
also when i was in grade 3 we all had to take a diagnostic test to see if we could get into the gifted program. i got one (1) below the threshold for getting into it and i was so pissed. like two weeks later they changed the score you had to get to get in so they invited everyone who got close to do it again and i got a higher score than i did before but then i STILL got one below because they raised it. in hindsight i’m glad i didn’t get in because i know it would have been bad for me but i’m still so pissed about it bc of the principle of it
literally my first day working at the aviary there was a snake in one of the birds’ feeders just chilling there. we spent like half an hour trying to catch it and it scared the absolute shit out of like 7 birds
i was a niche internet microcelebrity on reddit when i was literally 12
when i was in grade 8 we had a water hydraulics project and my class was a split class with mostly 7th graders so my teacher just sort of left us alone with a bucket of little tube syringes while she did something else with the grade 7s. then i found 3 actual needles in the bucket for some reason. one of them was in that little wrapper but the other two were just loose in the bucket that we were rummaging around in. i went out to tell my teacher bc she was in a different room and she literally told me she didn’t care and to leave her alone bc she was working with the 7s (they were reading a textbook). i was like ??? but i didnt know what else to do so i just went back into the room to keep working. then this one guy grabbed one of the open needles and stabbed two different girls with the same one like uhhh what the fuck. i went out to go tell my teacher that two people had been stabbed by the same needle and she told me she didn’t care AGAIN like GIRL. honestly i wasn’t too worried about the girls because they both bullied me honestly but yk. then later the teacher came in and berated us for not telling her like I LITERALLY DID TWICE im still so mad about that honestly
when my mom and i were watching the last two episodes of ofmd together (this was before i came out) when ed and stede kissed she turned around and looked directly at me
i was in scouts when i was younger and there was exactly 5 people in my troop and it was me, 2 of my friends (one of them ended up being one of the girls that bullied me and got stabbed with a needle in grade 8), and two boys that i absolutely fucking hated. one time one of the boys said i was dumb and i threw a rock at him
when i was in kindergarten during recess i had to shit really bad and i asked the teacher on duty to let me go inside and she refused so i asked the other teacher to let me in and she didnt have keys. i tried to hold it but i could not go inside and i was 4 so i shit my pants and i was absolutely never a kid who had accidents so i didn’t know what to do and i was so embarrassed i just tried to ignore it. i just walked around for the rest of recess with a massive shit in my pants. when recess ended the teacher told us to come sit down on the carpet in a circle. you can guess what happened next
last year i had a substitute teacher for math and i ticced fuck while she was handing something out and for some reason she refused to believe me when i said i had tics. she sent me to the vice principal’s office and he didn’t believe me at first that i didn’t know what i was there for because she had sent me down for lying to him. when he did realize that i actually didn’t know what was going on he told me that she sent me down for disciplinary action so yk. he walked me back up to my class and took the teacher out in the hall to talk to her and i was losing my fucking mind with my friends for like 15 minutes while she was getting an absolute dressing down for not believing me. then when she came back in i was expecting an apology at the very least and she literally didnt. we waited for like 10 minutes and she said nothing. then my friend actually raised her hand and said she owed me an apology and this old lady started fighting for her LIFE. also she was only a little bit polite to my white friend who was standing up for me but didnt have an OUNCE of respect for either of my other friends who were standing up for me who were black and mohawk. like literally what the hell. my friend did record it though and i have that video now so
when i finally came out to my mom i was literally in a costco parking lot. my brother was in the car and he already knew bc he just guessed it ages ago and i said “did you know one in three people are gay” and my mom said “yeah i know”. also i made a cake for my dad bc he wasn’t there and he said “when do we make the ‘we know’ muffins”
i made my 13th birthday cake and right after i finished frosting it i dropped the entire thing on the ground
when i was like 4 i made a mess of paper in the kitchen and my mom told me to clean it up so i went in there and ate all of the paper
in grade 5 my teacher found out i was self harming and for some reason she decided to talk to me about it while we were doing kindergarten buddies. my kindergartener was literally just left alone in the room. i dont know why she decided to use that time
when we were selling my old house it was during covid so we had to leave during all the open houses and one time we came back from driving around the city during one and i went to the bathroom and there was a puddle of piss on the floor. some lady brought her toddler in and she pissed on the floor and she tried to clean it up with toilet paper but for some reason put it in the garbage instead of the toilet so the whole room smelled like piss
in grade 7 i was walking home from school with my partner and i guess i ate something bad and i ended up shitting my pants halfway home
someone here called me a terrorist for lying about gay sex in bathrooms

Lost Children Progress Update 17/4/24
It's been a little while since I did one of these. I've been giving small updates here and there, but a big one once in a while is nice, and I enjoy sharing my progress. It's sort of motivating. You know? To look and see, 'Oh wow, I did a lot' or 'wow, I didn't accomplish a lot, but I'm proud of what I did do!' (Some chapters take their time to come together, other the ideas just flow on to the paper).
ANYWAY! You don't care about this. You want to know how long till the next chapter comes out, right????
Tumblr media
So, will start with the elephant in the room: Ch.19. It's only 8 pages, which is why, despite the first 3 technically done (anything at 90% is just to digitalise & add text), I haven't uploaded anything.
It's about done. I'm just stuck on page 5 (and two panels of page 4). They're a flashback. A god-damned nightmare of a flashback to draw and... I don't want to do it TT , but for effect and impact, the story needs it >>
Otherwise:
Tumblr media
(That should be 20/22 chapters done :P )
Part 1 is coming together swimmingly! With the recent addition of 2 new chapters and, I think, this is as big as part 1 will be getting. I'm finishing off tidying up how I want Part 1 to end at the minute, and then we'll have a small time skip to part 2.
(And maaaaaaybe I'll go back to the start and add an intro chapter to give more info on what the heck happened in the Triple Threat Ending to make Henry think screwing up the timelines and making a new one was a great idea. IDK. Still on the hedge about where to put this info)
Also! The poll I'm running looks like everything in one fic will win, for how it gets uploaded on A03. In two days time once the poll is finished I'll work on implementing those changes (, unless the poll swings back the other way again :P ).
Part 2:
Tumblr media
The order of the first 9 chapters, take with a grain of salt. I'm still finalizing the order.
For the most part it's just detailed ideas of what I want to happen in each part + 4 chapters finished, 2 being edited.
'Standing on the Ledge' came out FANTASTIC. I cannot wait to upload that one. Personal favourite of the part so far. 2nd place going to 'Stuck With You'.
And what is that at the bottom? A familiar chapter name! Yes! We're getting back to the Wall. Slowly but surly our characters will be reunited with their frozen prisons, well-
Those who I haven't/ don't kill off~
*eViL lAuGhInG! >:D*
jk.
Or am I?
Anyway,
Part 3:
Tumblr media
Part 3 is mostly a butt-ton of editing. It looks like most of the new chapters will land in part 2 (asides from 4), so part 3 will be similar to the original version, but not, given all the minor changes you're about to witness snowball into avalanche sized consequences!
Tumblr media
^^;
Anyway, I've edited 4 so far dated them since it's going to be a while till we get to Part 3. That being said, given it's 85%ish editing, it should hopefully just be rapid fire chapter uploading when we do get there :)
I think that's about all I've got to say?
Er... you guys should be aware by now of the 'I'm in uni, chapters are as I have time/wrist able' disclaimer. So...
OH! Also, this is all going up on A03 (once the poll is done), so I can keep the readers over there who don't follow this Tumblr up-to-date with what's going on. So when you see a new chapter update in your inbox, don't get too excited ^^;
And finally, for you.
My dear read.
Who has read through my long waffle and sporadic episodes of evil laughter and fun!
I have an... 'opportunity'
*Snots* I sound like a Mafia boss with Liam Neelson's voice reading this allowed.
I left my colour coding in Part 2 (as I couldn't be bothered to remove it ^^; ), so... will have some fun with this.
Whoever can figure out who's POV are colours blue or green will get a free half or full body drawing of one character (SFW), of their choice (mine, oc, stickmin or another fandom (at my discretion)).
And we'll say... 2 guesses a person (either two on one colour, or one guess for each colour) to make it fair. (It shouldn't be too hard, there's only 12 POV's, and you've met them all but one coming in at Part 3.
OH!
And there will be three winners in total.
Good luck :)
Tumblr media
(btw, I'm going to bed now, so first people with the right answers are the winners in case you all rush in here with your answers over the next... 10 ish hours...
Unless... you're the only person to read this far >> )

Arrival!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Writing to you this morning from our hotel breakfast! Just wanted to fill in everyone about the rest of our trip before we start our first full day. I doubt we'll be able to post EVERY SINGLE DAY WE'RE HERE but we're definitely gonna try and keep it frequent enough to be interesting!
From our last post, we were heading from Baltimore to Toronto, which was a very quick hour and a half-ish flight. From Toronto, we headed straight to our gate to which started boarding shortly thereafter, so it was a pretty quick turn around. It was almost kind of a shame because airport was actually kinda pretty, and I wouldn't have hated a few extra minutes to look around at all the really lavishly decorated restaurants and stuff.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Then came the 14 hour flight. It IS a very long time, don't get me wrong, and by the end my back was VERY achy and my legs definitely craved stretching but also they keep the windows closed and the lights low for most of the trip so you honestly kind of lose track of how long you've been on there.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Charles and I both watched some movies on the flight; we started the first two episodes of Severance (which was also provided on the flight and I've been curious about for a while anyway -- anyone else here seen it?) and played games on our Switches. I also read a lot; I loaded my e-reader up before we left. In a weird way it was kind of nice to have such a long, uninterrupted time where there was nothing to do but leisure activities even if you're doing them in a mostly uncomfortable way --I think Charles and I (Charles especially) struggle with justifying how we spend our free time, always feeling like there has to be something else we can be working on or doing, but it's kind of a bad habit and terrible mental state to always be in, so we're working on it. Unfortunately, neither of us managed to get much sleep on the flight despite our best efforts, I think I managed maybe 20 minutes total?? So it wasn't super restful for sure.
Thankfully, our flight was kinda ahead of schedule, and we ended up landing around 5:00 PM / 17:00 which is like....3:00 AM for those of you in the Eastern US timezone! We're 12 hours ahead of y'all, so when I'm writing this, I'm writing to you from the future!!!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After getting through customs and immigration, baggage, etc. we were stopped by a news crew from a show called Why Did You Come To Japan? They seem to stop tourists at the airport pretty regularly, and we ended up talking to them for a while. Charles said that as someone who used to be a camera guy himself, he always tries to stop for folks filming stuff like that, because he knows how hard it can be to get people to talk to you and work with you. They were very interested in the fact it was our honeymoon, and that we got engaged here, and even more interested that we were really into Oishinbo, which is a food manga from the 80s/90s. It's not super popular in the US although personally I love & recommend it, and I kinda get the impression from the crew we spoke to that it's a classic but kinda old fashioned here. They said in all their years of doing these interviews, it was their first time having a foreigner mention it. They gave us a card and a slip of paper and asked us to contact them again, because they may be interested in meeting up with us again later in our trip to film more for the show (!?) so we'll see how that pans out I guess!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Speaking of, after we finally left the airport, we took the Skyliner train to Nippori, and then transferred to a JR Line train to get us to Shinjuku station. We've stayed in Shinjuku for at least part or all of our trips in the past, and it kind of feels like a home base for us now. We usually stay in or around the Kabukicho area, which is known as an entertainment district with lots of nightlife. If you want brilliantly lit signs and that crowded cyberpunk-y look, Kabukicho is a great place to be!
Tumblr media
NOT THAT IT SUPER MATTERS, BUT the card in the photo, with Hello kitty and other Sanrio characters on it, is a Pasmo card, we each got one. Basically it's a little card that you can add money to, and you can use it to pay fare on most trains and buses, as well as lots of vending machines and stuff like that. You can top it off as you go as well.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
We checked in to our hotel, the Shinjuku Gracery, and IMMEDIATELY needed to stretch out on the bed and shower the sweaty airport off of us, haha. The Gracery is built on top of a Toho Cinema movie theater, and the whole hotel has a very classy Godzilla theme to it. There's a to-scale Godzilla head built on top of part of the building, looking like he's about to demolish it, and he roars and blows steam out of his mouth, haha. To be honest, a night in the Gracery is one of our "we're on our honeymoon, we deserve this!" splurges -- it's one of the more expensive parts of our trip, given the rest of the time we'll be staying in smaller hotels and airbnbs and the like. We dished out a little extra cash to stay in what they call a Godzilla view room, where you can see the head of Godzilla that is mounted to the roof of the hotel from your room! Totally cool. I had to include specifically a picture of the shower, because I loooove these big hotel showers!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(sadly the filter for this exhibit not only doesn't fit my phone screen but also insanely reduced the image quality LOL)
We took a rest, then headed out to get a bite to eat. We hit up a ramen shop we'd been to in the past, and spent a while walking around the Kabukicho area, including the micro-bar district, Golden Gai. It was interesting to see what's changed and what hasn't since we were here last; for example, they were in the process of demolishing a VR arcade when we were last here, and now there's an ENORMOUS, lux-looking hotel in its place!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
We ended up in the unfortunate position of feeling physically very tired but mentally pretty awake, and even though we spent time in our hotel room soaking in the bath, it was probably 1 AM our time before we actually fell asleep, meaning we were up for like....32 hours straight, I think?
Today, our plan is to check out a few shops in the area around Kabukicho, and a little later we'll be checking out and moving on to Akihabara, where our next hotel is. It's well known for being crammed with electronics and used and new like....nerd stuff, and is pretty close to a district jam packed with guitar shops, so we'll have a pretty full day! Stay tuned I suppose!!
Til next time!

Welcome Home Fic - Saving My Neighbors 0
Aka Prologue (Ch. 0) - ‘Moved’ into the Neighborhood
((A/N: This hasn’t left my mind for weeks, so I’ve decided to write down the fanfiction while I can. Now, this is sort of a coexist verse of toons and puppets; plus Muppets, with humans. A bit like Who’s Framed Roger, Space Jam, Looney Toons Back in Action, the Muppet Movies and maybe a few others as well. This fanfic is... sort of based on Welcome Home ARG, BUT this is a fanfiction and not all of it is true. This is sort of separated from the official/canon version which still works. Now, this is a Wally Darling X OC, plus a guy x guy relationship later on so if you have issues with that, you’re free to leave or not read it 😅. I’m just having some fun with this. This will have some... psychological horror (ish) which I don’t think I have done anything scary like, but once that theme comes in, I’ll try. This is SFW fanfic, despite the scary stuff. Welcome Home is created by @partycoffin/Clown so give them the support and the respect to the creator. This fanfic and AU ‘Saving my Neighbors’ is made by me; @iciwelcome-home which I also go by @ginnyicyidragon which is my main blog. Enjoy my fanfic and I do apologize my grammar.))
Somewhere in the space of darkness, a pale lavender periwinkle rabbit puppet with long lop ears, yellowish orange bowl-like hair, indigo freckles on the cheeks, wearing cyan sweater with rainbow collar part and white shorts with one black stripe on each sides is seemingly laying on the ground on his or their back. His eyes are closed while trying to remember where he is or even how he got into such a state.
'...Where... am I?' He thought. 'I was... standing in front of, but... how am I...?'
Er...ic... Ho...pp...er... yo.......et in... F.… ou......pened... Be... ca...ful…
'Huh? Who is that... talking to me...? Eric... Hopper... That's me. But I can't remember... anything...' He thought, grunting as he opened his blue eyes to see... colorful leaves of trees, seeing the clouds in the sky. It seems the sun is rising. "...Huh?" He slowly sits up, places his right hand behind his head. He winces, "Ow... My head."
The rabbit puppet slowly looks around, seeing he's in the woods as a breeze slightly blows in. "Uh... How did I get here?" Eric mumbled. He tries to remember, but... nothing comes to mind. "I was... walking and ended up here." He quietly said to himself.
He then slowly stood up, dusted himself off. He seems to be only 2ft tall.  "Okay, okay... My name is... Eric Hopper, a rabbit puppet... I have a cousin and... um..." He muttered. He tries to think hard then sighs loudly, eyes close, "Ugh! I can't remember much... I don't even know how I got here…"
The rabbit puppet turns around to see if he finds something or anyone nearby to help him. Eric then spots a path leading towards... somewhere. "Oh, good! A path! Maybe this could lead me to civilization!" He smiled with relief then began walking over to the path and headed down the path.
5 minutes later, Eric looks ahead to see a town. "Ah! This is good! Maybe I will get some help and call for help...” He smiled, quickly hurried into town.
But once he entered, he could see colors around him and see some of the houses. It seems kinda quiet. He slowly stops by a building which looks like a post office, looking around, "Is this town… abandoned?”
Before he knew it, once the sun moved in the right spot in the sky, the rabbit puppet suddenly heard birds chirping, feeling warmth and happiness in the air, then… the door of the post office opened by a four feet tall orange colored puppet mailman named Eddie Dear. “Ah~ Time to deliver some mail!” Eddie smiled, adjusting his blue hat.
Eric, after slightly jumping when Eddie opens the door, stares over at Eddie, “.....”
Eddie walks out of the post office and onto the path, but then he stops once he senses someone is staring at him, turns to his right to see Eric standing a few feet from him. He exclaims, jumps back a bit, “Oh! Where did you come from?!” His sudden jump made him hit the mail bag and most of the mail was scattered onto the ground. “Gah! Oh no!” Eddie quickly tries to grab the mail that was in the air.
Feeling bad, Eric went over to Eddie and quickly gathered up the mail that fell on the ground, saying in an apologetic way, “I’m so sorry! I didn’t mean to scare you…”
“N-no problem! It’s okay!” Eddie replied, kneeling down to pick up the rest of the mail and then standing back up after putting them back in his mail bag. “I just wasn’t expecting to see you there.”
Eric hands over the mail he’d picked up to Eddie, saying, “Yeah, but I still feel bad for scaring you like that. I just arrived here and we--”
“Oh? Are you the new neighbor then??” Eddie questioned, putting the mail Eric gave him in his mail bag.
Eric looks unsure how to answer that question, trying to remember a bit, “Um… I guess so. I’m mostly lost and trying to find some… way to get to a place called the Neighborhood.” Eric wasn’t sure why, but he was technically going to say ‘To find some help and call someone’ however he has a nagging feeling to not say the real reason.
Eddie then smiles, “Well, you’re in luck! This is it!”
“This is it?” Eric repeated, making his lop ears raise a bit. He looks around, surprised to know this area is the Neighborhood.
“Yep! And you’re in luck, I’m about to go around town to deliver some mail to everyone.” Eddie told him, smiling. “This way, you can get to know everyone in the Neighborhood.”
Eric thought about then nods, “Okay, but only if it’s okay with you. I would rather not disturb your job…”
“It’s fine!” Eddie chuckled. “Besides, we can’t have our new neighbor getting lost again. Oh! I almost forgot to introduce myself, the name is Eddie Dear.” He holds out his left hand to Eric to shake hands.
Eric stares at Eddie’s hand, looks up at Eddie and… places his hand in Eddie and grasps it with a smile, “I’m Eric Hopper. I hope we’ll get along.”
Eddie begins shaking Eric’s hand, smiling in a friendly way, “Same here. And I think you’ll love it here! It’ll be like this is your home already.” He releases Eric’s hand and adjusts his mail bag. “Follow me and don’t wander off from me.” He said to Eric, then began heading towards what looks like a blue shop with the words ‘Howdy’s Place’ on it.
Eric stood for a few seconds, looking back where he’d come from while hearing words inside his head…
…What…r you do… do… tell whe… you’re from, act like…n’t… rem… You’ll probably for….. But stay strong… and fi…
Unfortunately, Eric can’t remember nor make out whoever told him. The rabbit puppet shrugs it off and quickly follows after the mailman puppet, not knowing someone is watching from afar…
((A/N: …And we’ll stop there! Short, I know, but I figured maybe in the next chapter, Eric will meet the rest of the neighbors. I hope this is a good start and I hope my grammar wasn’t so bad. Anyway, it seems Eric met Eddie Dear after arriving, which is good.  However, it seems Eric forgot some things before moving into the Neighborhood. Why is that? We’ll find out that in the chapter… maybe~ Also, will be post on my A03 account))

Tell us more about tinder guy?? Whats he like and what do you like about him? Would you like a future with him? Everything??? 😭
oh anon hi, thank you for taking an interest in my messy love life!
right so here's the story. it was a Saturday afternoon, I had just moved to Cologne that Wednesday for an internship, my roommate wasn't home, I had spend the day at a workshop for my internship and then afterwards some people went to get drinks. So I had one glass of wine, got home at 5-ish and here was this big city ready to explore and no one to do that with.
so what does a slightly tipsy 28 year old single woman do? you guessed it, I got my ass on Tinder and looked for someone to go out with that evening. And surprise, surprise that's where I matched with Tinder Guy.
(I was actually really hoping to date more women since Cologne is the queer capital of Germany but I have since realized that dating women is hard)
Now the thing is that I had been single when we first met for a little more than a year. And my ex and I had been long distance so all in all I had not had sex for 3 years and 4 months. There had been some attempts but it never worked out and at that point it was getting hilarious. I started believing I was cursed to never have sex again and as someone who really likes having sex I found that devastating.
Anyway, so I very spontaneously met with Tinder Guy (not after sending my best friend all the information I had on him, our meeting point and regular updates, be save people!) and we went to a bar. And it was a nice time and a good conversation but I had been around people all day and he has a very pretty face so I remember thinking "okay so how can I speed this up" the whole date. Eventually we left, got some drinks and just walked around until he suggested that we could also get back to his place.
And the rest is history. He lives like 10 minutes walking distance from the place I stayed at during my internship so we just started meeting regularly. we talk, we have great sex, we cuddle and watch something dumb on Netflix, we have sex again usually, eventually I go back home.
He's very much a "no thoughts just vibes" person in the best way possible. Like he's so chill about everything which is great for me because I overthink everything. And he makes great tea. And he's also a bit introverted which is probably why we get along so well. His taste in TV shows is uhm interesting. He has one ear pierced and sometimes wears a dangly snowflake earring that I am obsessed with. I find him funny but he is such a dork. He is so so pretty sometimes I get so distracted just looking at his face.
So yeah, Tinder Guy. I haven't seen him since I moved away and we haven't had the most contact but we will hopefully meet tonight. And I always knew that if I come back we would probably just pick things back up where we left them.
I don't think I could see myself having a monogamous relationship with him but then again that's not what I am looking for anyway. I do think I would like to have him in my life permanently in some way. I could never live with him though. I would be devastated if we never saw each other again or it ended badly.
I just really enjoy what we have and I don't really feel the need to put any labels on it and I don't think he does either. I am just so stupidly attracted to him and his whole personality it's ridiculous. Sometimes I am annoyed with how much I like him but it's also not in a way that is causing me stress or heartache so I do mostly really enjoy seeing him.
