141 is filled with alphas, not a single omega in sight. there are a few betas, but they're either low-ranking or transfers that were never going to last.
like you! (beta!reader) who works at reception and takes calls, scans badges and is the first point of contact for the task force.
none of them know your name, none of them even speak to you - maybe price, when you transfer a call to him, he'll mumble a thank you. or even laswell, when you bring her a coffee.
it's nothing, really, you don't mind.
only, one day, a totally normal friday, you've done the exact same style in your hair you always have, and you're wearing more clothes than you were yesterday.
price wants a coffee, sure- you make it, just the way he likes, and head towards his office. you knock, and wait a few seconds until you hear 'come in.'
the office is silent, it usually is - but this time there's more than just price inside.
they're finishing up just as you enter, soap and gaz sitting in front of the desk whilst ghost leant against the back wall.
"my apologies, captain." your voice isn't exactly quiet - why should it be, you've done nothing wrong, but its still respectful. price just nods as you place the cup down on his desk.
"thanks, that's all." he dismisses everyone in the room, and you wait for the boys to file out before you do, soap and gaz both giving you a cheeky smile.
ghost is the one to hold open the door, standing just adjacent to the doorway with his arm sprawled against it. its a heavy door, and you swallow as you pass him.
"thank you," you all but mumble out as you rush past him - straight into the break room.
you can't help but rant about the situation to your roommate whilst you're packing up your things, your phone tucked between your jaw and shoulder.
"i mean- he held the door open for me and i couldn't even look him in the eye to say thank you!" you stress, throwing your bag into your passenger seat before leaning back against your car. "god, all i wan't right now is a plate of sushi and some boba."
"too bad its pizza night, dweeb."
"thats not fair! i could loose my job, i should be allowed to eat my comfort food when im stressed out."
you stress about it over the whole weekend, and when you return back to work on monday you try to act as casual as possible. of course, you don't see ghost - price doesn't order a coffee, and youre break time comes around quicker than you expected.
you had brought- oh, theres- your favourite sushi, and a boba drink sitting where your food was supposed to be. in somewhat messy hand writing, on a small piece of paper, theres your name.

i am a sucker for sweet lil moments like this !!
in my head i think that simon would like a beta, or an alpha, but in this lil snippet (which is CERTAINLY getting turned into a fic) he's big and broad and gets worried when he's with alphas because they can't think straight, he tells them what to do and he does it.
but you? you dont react to his scent or chase him down to get him to court you - so, of fource, he courts you. <3

Jk just cooed and rubs her back her cheeks her arms her thighs cuz boy when simp for the ninth time and its all just fluff UGHHHH
you know every time someone has a thought about ungodly hour i have to write it 😭💜
Ungodly Hour
Tumblr media
word count: 1.173
“So I was thinking about wearing this tomorrow for dinner with your parents.” Jungkook turns around, holding up something you didn’t care to see. “I need to come off as someone who - are you okay?”
Jungkook knits his brows at your unmoving position on the bed - the same position he’s left you in 10 minutes prior - naked and all.
You mumble something inaudible to Jungkook and he sighs. He places the shirt neatly back into the closet and comes closer to the bed. “This is why I said we need a safe word.”
You suck your teeth at Jungkook’s words.
“Don’t be like that, Y/N. I fucked you so good that-”
“Don’t get ahead of yourself.” You hiss, straining your neck to look at him.
Jungkook wants to laugh because, of course, you’d speak up to argue with him.
“It’s not like we do anything that requires a safe word. You act as if you have me hanging from the ceiling.”
Jungkook rolls his eyes. “The way you’re laying there after a good fuck, you mind-”
Jungkook manages to dodge a kick, but it isn’t like you put enough force into it. Jungkook decides to stop teasing you.
“My body just hurts.” you murmur, a slight pout on your lips. “Not because of you or your mediocre dick, either. I just had a long day at work.”
Jungkook scoffs with a roll of his eye. “It must be so hard standing in the same place.”
Your eyes harden at Jungkook and in retaliation, you decide to turn over, back facing him. “I actually had to stock stuff today.” you say. You were sick of Jungkook and his constant teasing that your job “wasn’t stressful” because all you did was “stand there and look pretty”.
Jungkook gasps dramatically. “They had you stock the shelves?” he hides his laughter, especially when you attempt to send another kick his way that he dodges easily. “My poor Y/N, having to work even though I pay for everything.”
Jungkook dips onto his bed beside you, his hands rubbing circles onto your back. “Maybe you should quit if it’s starting to strain your body.”
You lay on your arms, turning your head to look at Jungkook with an unamused look. “I can’t just quit my job.”
Jungkook blinks, deepening the pressure onto your back. “Why not?” he asks. “What if they have you stock more shelves?” Jungkook bites the inside of his cheek because the thought of stocking shelves straining your body this much makes him want to laugh at how dramatically (cute) you were.
“Nice to know that my pain is bringing you such enjoyment.” you bite back, closing your eyes. 
“Of course not.” Jungkook focuses his hands on your neck, rubbing circles around them before he reaches your shoulders. “You don’t want to quit. This is your own fault.”
“I have bills to pay.” you murmur gently. 
“I pay your bills.” Jungkook retorts. And it wasn’t a lie - but it isn’t like you asked him to. Jungkook insisted like he always did, stating that if you and he were going to be dating then that meant he was going to have to “step up” more. “I get you everything you need. Your paychecks are just pocket change.”
“Ugh, rude.” you turn your head the other way, sighing as Jungkook's hands dip onto your back. “Maybe I don’t want to leech off of you.”
Jungkook remains quiet - you were far too stubborn. His words do nothing but go into one ear and out the other - no matter how many times Jungkook has to explain that he enjoys doing what he does for you, you’d never see it that way.
“So you aren’t quitting?” Jungkook asks after another 5 minutes. He’s sure you were dozing off, your breathing was becoming slowed and body limp. 
You made a sound that told him “no”.
“I see. I can get you a membership so you can get massages-”
“Shut up, simp.” you murmur, eyelids already heavy, but nonetheless, you move closer to Jungkook. At this, he allows you to come closer, lying down besides you to bring you closer to him. 
Jungkook’s warmth is inviting and you immediately sink deeper into his embrace. You hum softly when you feel Jungkook’s fingers lightly trace your back, as if drawing shapes or writing letters. It tickles lightly and causes you to squirm when they inch up your spine until they’re at the nape of your neck. “You’re so cute.” Jungkook murmurs, lips against your forehead as his fingers gently rub along your neck. “Wanna shower?”
You huff - because yes, you did. But you also didn’t feel like getting up off of the bed and out of Jungkook’s warm embrace (not like you’d ever tell him that).
“I can run you a bath instead.” Jungkook offers, kissing your forehead softly. He understands that he could be a bit rough when in the act of intimacy and as much as you enjoyed it, it did weigh down on your body. “I wish you’d just tell me to slow down sometimes.”
“My mother didn’t raise a bitch.” was your response - a typical you response that has Jungkook snorting. 
Jungkook kisses your forehead again, “I’ll start the bath for you.” he says, untangling himself from you and lowly, you groan at the lack of warmth but didn’t protest. You didn’t want Jungkook actually thinking you wanted his presence - because of course it wasn’t that.
As time passed on with you staying in Jungkook’s home frequently, he made sure you had essentials. He cleared up some room for you - assuring you had a couple drawers in his bathroom for your own feminine products and beauty products. As he starts the bath, he’s sure to add the warm smell of vanilla you enjoy so that you could relax. 
“Come.” Jungkook tugs at your leg gently to get you to move from your position on the bed. “Your bath is ready.”
“Ugh.” you groan and lift yourself from Jungkook’s bed. Jungkook has a small smile on his lips  as he watches you go from his bedroom to the bathroom and dip into the bath. 
“Feels good?” Jungkook asks, leaning against the counter and watch you sink into the bath and only your head is present. 
“It’s okay.” you murmur, closing your eyes and Jungkook knows that it’s your way of saying that you loved the gesture - but you were undoubtedly you and giving him credit would be the last thing you’d ever do. 
However, Jungkook would never take you seriously so he just snickers. “I’ll order us some food.”
One eye peaks open at Jungkook who is waiting for a response.
“You want me to get something sweet, too, I assume?” Jungkook already knows by the look in your eyes and when you nod, he laughs. “Anything for you.”
“Simp.” you murmur, sinking into the bath to avoid Jungkook seeing your expression.
Fuck Jeon Jungkook and the way he makes your heart beat at his genuine gestures of kindness.

more lawyer!abby pleaseeeeeeee
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ 𝐋𝐀𝐖𝐘𝐄𝐑!𝐀𝐁𝐁𝐘 | 03.
ㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤㅤ PART ONE | PART TWO
mwah mwah, course baby. sorry it’s late, I got a little lost on what to add :( ♡
꒰ ♡ ꒱ lawyer!abby will always get a tie the same color as your own outfit choice if she takes you out for a meal. She either has to match you or will make a big deal out of it, refusing to leave the house until she’s found something that exactly matches.
꒰ ♡ ꒱ lawyer!abby is thankful when you’re there to help her when she’s getting stressed out. Her job is hard, and sometimes she puts herself down when she feels like she can’t do anything to help someone, and that’s when you step in, quick to remind her that she is doing amazing and she can do it.
꒰ ♡ ꒱ lawyer!abby owns many cars. Cheap and expensive, she doesn’t really care much about them but she is always thankful that they have tinted windows because she’s a risky woman, and no matter where she goes or what she’s up to, she can’t help herself when she slides her hand up your thigh, gripping the flesh tightly while in the middle of a phone call, enjoying the way you squirm on the seat and suck in a breath through your teeth, clenching your legs around her hand when they make their way to where you need her.
꒰ ♡ ꒱ lawyer!abby who has fucked you in pretty much every car she owns. She simply doesn’t care about when and where. You always look so fuckin’ pretty and she can’t keep her hands off you. You could simply be eating an ice cream and that would turn her on, and end up with the both of you in the back seat of her car with her fingers so deep in your cunt that all you can do is grip tightly onto her expensive suit jacket, and bite down on her shoulder. Even though she hates it when you try hiding your pretty sounds.
꒰ ♡ ꒱ lawyer!abby brags about you to everyone she works with or meets at a meeting. Shit, she doesn’t even care if its a new client she’s met, she will mention how it was you who helped her pick out a certain suit or it was you who picked up this new coffee she was trying. Abby brought you up in every conversation, even during the long hours she was sat setting up and helping with a new case. You were on her mind 24/7.
꒰ ♡ ꒱ lawyer!abby spends a lot of free time looking at engagement rings. She knows she wants to marry you and spend the rest of her life with you, but sometimes she doesn’t know which ring to buy because in her mind, you deserve every single one and more.
꒰ ♡ ꒱ lawyer!abby loves it when you cuddle her. There is something about having her face tucked in the crook of your neck after a long day, some old clothes on her body, a movie on the TV with your fingers running through her hair that has her content, comfortable, and warm. She hated being away from you for such long hours but she cherished when she could finally be home with you.
꒰ ♡ ꒱ lawyer!abby enjoys when you cook her meals, but also adores being able to cook them for you after you’ve had a hard day at work. The woman will literally be by the door when you stumble in, hands already working on removing your coat for you and handing you a glass of wine while she waits for the food she prepared for you, to cook in the oven. 
꒰ ♡ ꒱ lawyer!abby who yes, will daydream about starting a family with you. It’s not something she’s ready to bring up in conversation just yet though in case you weren’t ready for it, but she’s always imaging what it would be like to come home, find you and your child in the living room, watching a movie or even in the kitchen, baking cookies or whatever you wanted to make that day.
꒰ ♡ ꒱ lawyer!abby acts like a literal child on Christmas day when you buy her any kind of new book. She’s a book worm and that’s actually how she first met you, so it makes you happy when her eyes light up and she’s taking the fragile book from your hands with the utmost care and examining the cover, the back, as well as the pages inside.
꒰ ♡ ꒱ lawyer!abby has no shame in eyeing you up whenever you’re sitting on her office, neatly resting on one of the chairs opposite her desk. She doesn’t even hide the fact she wants nothing more than to either have you perched on her desk with her face between your thighs or have you bent over the wooden surface, and working her strap in your cunt.

HEART SHAKER! – YONE X READER
Tumblr media
Yone usually regrets saying yes to what Kayn or Ezreal rope him in, but this time around, he doesn’t regret it at all.
CONTENT.⠀Idol AU. Gender-neutral reader. Tooth-rotting fluff, first dates, hopeful ending because Yone deserves happiness. Requested by @fictionfordays. Hope you enjoy! ~1.3k words
CROSS-POSTED ON AO3 / @angelshub @bitchcraftinc
Tumblr media
Yone thinks he’s too old to be putting up with whatever shenanigans Kayn and Ezreal keep pulling him into.
Between promotions, interviews, production, and taking care of the group, he’s dedicated the majority of his time to being responsible and ensuring everything is in tip-top shape. He’s not unfamiliar with having responsibility be the key pillar in his life. Since he was a child, he took it upon himself to be someone his younger brother could look up to. He did everything he could to help his parents, working himself to the bone to ensure his family’s comfort. Not much has changed even when he’s become an idol.
Despite his weariness on some days, he can’t deny that he’s grown fond of his fellow members. He’ll put up with Aphelios’ pranks, Kayn’s ‘forgetfulness’ in doing his chores, Ezreal’s little jokes, and whatever else his life in HEARTSTEEL brings him. He supposes it’s why he found himself saying yes to Ezreal’s idea of a blind date.
Indulging in a silly idea once is harmless, he thinks. Maybe if he just went along, it’ll sate Ezreal enough to leave him be for a while. As happy (well, not really) as he is to indulge in his friend’s antics, he’d also prefer it if Ezreal didn’t bring up the idea every other day. And even if this is just to keep his all-too-enthusiastic friend at bay, he’s also not one to do things halfheartedly. For the first time since his audition, Yone is somewhat nervous.
Meeting new people isn’t all too familiar. He always greets his seniors, juniors, staff, or anyone he may come across on the job. But this isn’t a job, it’s something meant to potentially spark romance in his life which is far from professional. He hasn’t even been on a regular date. He’s well aware of what it usually entails, but he’s never actively sought out this sort of thing. He hopes whoever his date will be won’t feel too disappointed if he doesn’t catch their interest. He knows they’re Ezreal’s friend, but that doesn’t quite narrow it down.
He fiddles with his face mask (for safety measures, really) as he waits for his date at the table. Thanks to Kayn, the street where the restaurant is located is completely silent save for its employees and the occasional unknowing passer-by. He’s not sure what Kayn did—in fact, he’s not even going to ask—but if it means not having to stress as much about paparazzi and overly eager fans, he’s not going to pass up the opportunity. 
“Gosh, sorry I’m late—Yone?”
Said man looks up from his drink with wide eyes, surprised to see that you’re standing right in front of him. Or, more accurately, one of Ezreal’s best friends, and the fact that both of you are surprised means that the guy’s got more talent for discretion than he let on.
“Did Ezreal put you up to this?” you ask with an amused lilt, taking a seat in front of him. He nods quietly. “Hm. So that’s why he’s been so suspicious lately. Seraphine just told me she wanted me to meet a friend, but well… I didn’t think it’d be you.”
“Are you disappointed?” Yone blurts out.
The corners of your lips curl into a small smile. “No, of course not. I’m pretty happy about it, actually. But what brings you here?”
He doesn’t know you that well, he realises. While you’re always there for the group dinners or parties, he’s never had a proper conversation with you aside from simple hellos here and there. He’s not too familiar with the warmth rising in his cheeks either, but if he has to guess, it definitely has something to do with the way you’re looking at him.
“Ah, well…” He’s not sure if he should say the truth. He’s aloof, yes, but he’s not insensitive. “Ezreal thought I should try something new.”
“Hey, that makes both of us! By the way, I have the same Poro keychain! They’re really cute, aren’t they?”
He feels relieved that you seem to be carrying the conversation just fine even if he doesn’t think he’s great at it. Usually, the extroverts of HEARTSTEEL are responsible for answering interview questions. Yone’s there for the more professional and practical side of things, like speaking to other producers or the company president. As you start to talk about your day, he listens to every word and finds himself getting lost in how much he likes being in your presence. You’re more animated than he is and you still ask about his day even when he doesn’t believe it’s as interesting as yours.
He really likes that about you, he concludes.
“I forgot to mention this, but isn’t this district usually full of people? Why’s it so quiet today?” Your curious expression practically has him melting at how adorable you look. He prides himself on keeping his composure, but your presence alone is making him doubt his ability to be calm.
Yone is never nervous. The only other time he’s felt that way was when he first stepped through the company doors as a trainee. But the longer he sits here with you, his heart races and it’s getting harder to focus when you’re undoubtedly quite a perfect match for him.
(Damn that kid and his ‘super senses.’)
He clears his throat. “Kayn’s responsible for it.”
Perfect . He zoned out thinking about you when you’re right in front of him and he completely forgot to answer your question. Lucky enough, you don’t seem to mind.
“I’m… not sure I want to know the details.”
“It’s fine. I didn’t ask, either.” He chuckles. “I think it’s better not to.”
Your laughter rings beautifully like every song he’s ever loved. Everything feels new, and his thoughts are running a mile a minute, but he thinks he wants to take this jump into spontaneity and adventure with you.
“It’s getting late… I should head back. Gotta be on set early tomorrow.”
“Could we do this again?”
Your features soften into a teasing smile. “You like me already, don’t you?”
“Well, yes—”
“Of course, we can do this again,” you say gently, “I like you too, Yone. You don’t have to be so nervous around me.”
You reach over the table to take his hand in yours and he damn near short circuits at how your hand fits in so perfectly with his. He can barely process the coy glint in your eyes from how flustered he feels.
“I’ll walk you back.”
“Oh, a gentleman!” you chirp, “Now I wish I’d spoken to you sooner.”
The walk to the train station is too short for his liking. He’d really like to spend the rest of the night with you, but you still have things to do and Yone can’t be away for too long lest something happens in the dorm. As if you could sense him sulking, you gently tug on his sleeve and urge him to look at you. Before he can ask, you’re already leaning up to press a chaste kiss on his cheek, an action that has his eyes widening and his heart racing once again.
“I’ll see you again, Yone.”
His face feels like it’s burning as he watches you skip and disappear into the crowd. How can a single person reduce him to such a state so effortlessly? Still, he can’t help but look forward to the next time he’ll get to spend time with you again. He thinks you’re going to be quite the presence in his life and he’s more than happy to let that happen. 
Yone usually regrets saying yes to what Kayn or Ezreal rope him in, but this time around, he doesn’t regret it at all. He couldn’t wait to see you again. Maybe without his friends meddling in this time, but he supposes he does have them to thank for leading him to you.
Plus, he still needs to get your number.

Oh my god!! I need a second part of purple scarf asap. Honestly the best fic I’ve ever read YOU DID SO GOOD.
Maybe with a little smut? I loved it wow
Green-eyed monster
[spencer reid x reader]
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A/N: heey, anon! I don't write smut sorry :( but there are some hints towards it? perhaps. I hope you like it and thank you for the kind words!
summary: a consultant on a case drives you mad. the team seems to know the reason why, all except for the man with an IQ of 187. or. . . in which this is the sequel for this. it can be read as a standalone though.
pairing: s.reid x f!reader
w.c: 3.1K
warnings/content: jealousy jealousy jealousy (if the title wasn't clear enough); some light female rivalry; discussions about possessiveness; teasing; making out; allusions to sexual content (nothing explicit) and a tiny hint towards bdsm? but you blink you miss it; also, rossi's got some jokes.
navi
masterpost
[requested]
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
You don't lose patience quickly. You consider yourself to be a very patient person who is always questioning whether or not the situation was worthy over being stressed. It usually wasn't, so you'd take a deep breath and either fix the problem so it went away on its own or you faced it right away.
This time, you decided on the former. Because when someone keeps flirting with your boyfriend right in front of you — in a work environment nonetheless — while disrupting his personal space — really, what it is with people and not being aware of that minimum 0,5 inches gap? You do not need to be up on someone's face to have a simple conversation!
“Here.” A glass of water appears in your line of sight and you avert your attention from across the room to stare at it in confusion. Rossi is waiting expectantly beside you. “For you. You seem to need it since you keep on scoffing. Sore throat?”
That sassy Italian irony, huh?
You give him an eye roll as a response and he chuckled when you actually take the glass from his hold.
When Hotch called all of you over a case in your day-off, you didn't expect to grit your teeth as much as you were right now. You left your bed along with Spencer's warm body to go to the Bureau and have shameless flirting displayed in a public space. For godness sake.
“Agent Y/L/N.”
You really don't lose your cool over nothing.
But this isn't nothing.
Also, you do not consider yourself a jealous person, you see? But Agent Mayfield was pushing her luck.
“Yes, Agent Mayfield?” You replied in the same overly sweet tone she gave you. You're a profiler and you're damn good at your job, but it didn't need much to notice her aversion towards some people on the team, if not everyone. And you weren't the only who felt the same, given the not-so-subtly eyeroll from JJ.
The dirty blonde woman smiled at you. You didn't smile back. “You seem to have forgotten the files from—”
“It's on your desk.” You said shortly, turning back to the medical files you had to get through to find a pattern in the UnSub's M.O.
“I didn't see it.”
You hummed.
Well, of course not. If you hadn't been all over Doctor Reid than maybe you would have seen it.
“I just put it there, you can see it now.”
There was a pause, and then, “Thank you.”
“You're very welcome.”
There was a clear of throat and a soft chuckle around the briefing room but you didn't gave much thought to it. Until Derek made a comment.
“Slow down, Tiger.” He said, patting your shoulder before leaving the room with a laugh upon feeling your glare in his direction.
“Why do you need slowing down?”
You let out a long sigh. It wasn't Spencer's fault. That was completely out of the question, you knew he wasn't responding back to Agent Mayfield's flirting — he probably wasn't even aware of it, if you were honest — but the woman unnerved you 100%.
He placed your mug in front of you, the smell of coffee immediately reaching your nostrils and calming your senses. Maybe that's what your body were lacking and that's what it required to tune down your annoyance. Spencer was smiling at you and your forehead smoothed out. He's such an angel.
“Don't know,” You shrug, lifting the mug to your lips. Yes, not too sweet or watered-down. You give him a half smile in appreciation. “Derek is mad.”
“Doctor Reid, I need your input on something, do you mind?”
You refuse the scoff, looking at your side when you see Emily studying you. But someone else was inspecting your every move as well, you notice it when Spencer turns back to you after nodding in affirmation to Agent Mayfield.
“Is everything alright?” He questioned, warm fingers grazing your forearm warily. Of course Spencer knew something was off, he didn't have a major in psychology just because. He recognized your actions in a way you couldn't do it if you paid enough attention to yourself. Once, he made a comment about the supposedly meaning of when you licked your lips in different situations and you just stood there and listened, in complete bewilderment. He noticed a lot, to say the least. Not what's right under his nose, though.
“I'm good.” You shrug, grabbing one of the pictures in your messy circle of clues. You'd have to ask for Penelope's magic on this one. “You better go, duty awaits.” Your tone was extra chirpy and he just knew that was sarcasm. You know, Spencer Reid might be terrible with social cues, but he was familiar with everything that was related to you. And that edge in your voice made him slightly concerned.
Had he done something? He travels back to every single interaction from the two of you since you left his apartment — your apartment, too. You hadn't moved in (yet) but you did spend most of your time there. That place was just as yours as it was his, now. He loves saying that — but nothing out of ordinary comes to mind. You had breakfast, crawled back in the covers because it was supposed to be your day-off and intertwined your limbs for about one hour straight before Hotch made the call. You didn't look mad at him. You didn't sound mad at him when you left together, or on your way to work. Why did you sounded and looked mad now?
Fiddling distractedly with his scarf, he followed Agent Mayfield into her temporary office. She was a consultant in the newest case you were working on, Hotch brought her in because she had history with this kind of UnSub. Apparently, she went through a similar case back then.
Spencer got confused every time she asked him a question. Not that he minded, he loved to talk and loved when people seemed interested in what he had to say. But Mayfield was an expert in the area, she knew all of the questions she was asking him and he was aware that she knew because of her reaction. She was a nice person. Smiled a lot, too.
“What do you think, Doctor Reid? Am I in the right mindset?” He blinked away from the board where she had shown him a possible location the UnSub was hiding. The red dot stared at him as a sweet perfume unnerved his senses. Oh, she had gotten closer. Too close.
“Uh, yes. I believe so.” He frowned, taking a step back. She also didn't seem to get the meaning of boundaries because she stepped forward again. The smile quirking up a smirk. “Maybe—uh, maybe we should inform Hotch. Have you—”
“Doc,” She laughed, staring him up and down. “Are you afraid of me? Why do you keep waking back? I won't bite.”
“Okay,” Spencer deadpanned, swallowing hard. What was happening? He felt the table against his fingers and stopped moving back but Agent Mayfield kept on marching forward. “You—”
Tilting her head to the side, she raised a hand to touch the fabric around his neck, eyes traveling over it with curiosity and something else he couldn't translate when her blue orbs locked with his amber ones.
“Nice scarf you got there.” She purred, he could see her eyeshadow clearly form how close she was. It was starting to make him feel uncomfortable, the feeling of fight or flight arriving little by little as his hands gripped the table behind his back.
Spencer nodded nervously, “Thank you, my girlfriend gave it to me.” The air shifted as soon as he let the words out. Her movements freezing before they reached his neck. Thank god.
“Oh,” she muttered, sounding surprised and slightly disappointed “Your girlfriend?”
Spencer pulled the fabric away from her hold, taking advantage of her thoughtful stance to hop to the side and release himself from the cage she had locked him in. “Yes,” he said, adjusting his scarf around his neck. “She likes knitting.” Spencer didn't know why he said that, he didn't know a lot of things right now just that urge to flight the scene as if he was in imminent danger. “You got it all right. We should inform Hotch, this will help.” A tight-lipped smile was the last thing he sent her way before he fled the room.
When Hotch explains they're going to follow a new lead provided by Agent Mayfield, you are one of the first to reach for your bulletproof vest, until a hand curls around your shoulder.
“You're staying.” Hotch says, earning a look of disbelief from you. “You haven't been cleared for the field.” He gives you an unimpressed look which you know it means a warning if anything else.
“Hotch, it's been a month!”
“And you haven't been cleared, I need you and Garcia to work together.”
That's how everybody — but you — leaves for the newest location. The lead ends up being right and they find the man, you're in Penelope's office when they arrive back at the Bureau. It's around 10 p.m and you can't hold yourself back from yawning as you follow Penelope to meet your friends in the bullpen.
Emily's eyes glisten with something as she sees you come around the corner. She walks over to you and wraps an arm around your shoulder as you gaze at her from the corner of your eye suspiciously. “You won't believe who made the arrest.” She whispers in your ear.
You let out a scoff, “I think I have a hunch.” You mumble, eyes scanning around the room unconsciously until you find what your heart always searched for on a daily basis. Your gazes find each other and you offer him a smile.
“I was waiting for you to punch her guts, to be honest. You disappointed me.”
“I'm being professional, Emily. Not that you can relate.”
Emily flicks your forehead, and you whine playfully. “Menace. Now go talk to your lover so he can stop with that puppy dog look. It's depressing.” Your mouth stretches into a grin and you offer her your tongue in a very mature say before leaving her side to cross the room.
“Hey,” you greet Spencer with a warm smile. “Are you ready to go home?”
“Are you mad at me?” He blurts out at the same time you spoke. Confusion drew your brows together.
“Why would I be mad at you, Spencer?”
“You were gritting your teeth and your shoulders were tense which means you seemed to be holding back to snap and upset about something.” He rambled out, clutching the strap of his go-back that he hasn't even put it down yet. “Your eyebrows, they do this thing where you lift one and scoff right after.” Oh, so he noticed that to? You weren't even aware of the eyebrow twitch yourself. You weren't even going to complain about his profiling, you were more concerned about the fact that you made him feel as if he had done something wrong. Which wasn't the case. “Did I do something?” His voice lowers when someone passes by you. You decide you were to public for you to discuss the topic so you pull his wrist towards the conference room.
You shut the door quietly and turn around to face your boyfriend that carries a slightly heartbreaking expression.
“Spencer.” you called out softly, leaning your hand towards his and intertwining your fingers as you pull him closer. He lets out a sighs in relief with the way you were reacting. She's not mad anymore, good. “I'm not mad.” The promise goes out in a whisper as your hands left his to wrap around his neck. The scarf is there, it's always there. Your fingers curl around it slowly and he's too busy burying his nose on the croak of your neck to pay attention to anything else.
He makes a sound of protest when you lean away but you proceed to shut him up by crashing your lips together. The immediate reaction is to enfold your waist with his hands, you can feel his warmth when your shirt raises exposing a bit of your skin.
A smirk tugs at the corners of your mouth as you wrap a hand around his neck to create a little space between you two. It's not harsh, you're barely applying pressure on the area, but it's the reason his pupils are dilated when he glances down at you.
“I'm not mad because I know that you know who you come home to every day.” The contrast between your honeyed tone and your stern gaze is palpable, Spencer walked that path before and he knows what it means. “Don't you, love?” He's not sure which of his responses is appropriate for a work environment so he simply swallowed hard and nodded.
You hum, smile turning into a soft grin. Your whole stance shifting when you peck his lips again, adjusting his sweater vest as if absolutely nothing had happened.
Like an investigation board, every clue seems to click in his mind. The code arrives to his brain and the information was so clear that it must have looked like he ignored the signs because it was convenient.
You're jealous.
And Spencer must say, it looks quite good on you.
Before you leave the conference room you had come to hide in for a few minutes, he stops you from sliding out the room by hooking two of his fingers to the waistband of your pants and bringing you back to him. He unwraps the scarf around his neck to involve it around yours. It's not an unfamiliar action, he's done it a few times through the course of your relationship. It's something that he enjoys doing, truth be told. Except that, in a room filled with profilers, it conveys a whole other meaning. Although he just needs it to be conveyed to one person.
There's a six feet distance within you when you step back into the bullpen. Most of the people have dissipated, only your inner circle left, except from Rossi, he went home already.
Oh, and Agent Mayfield was saying goodbye to everyone as well. You had to hold back the eyeroll as she approached you. You could see JJ from above Mayfield's shoulder, cracking up beside Penelope, who was asking her to be quiet. The entire FBI building seemed to quiet down for a minute.
“Agent Y/L/N,” she gave you that fake sweet smile, showing off her teeth as she offered a hand for you to shake. You really thought about ignoring it or in throwing out the number of pathogens passed during a handshake to avoid doing it — like your precious boyfriend usually did. “A pleasure working with you. I hope the opportunity comes another time.”
You shake her hand, despite your inner protests. However, every action has its consequences, right? That's why something akin to pride bursts through your chest when her attention freezes on your neck. It's good, it's really good to see Agent Mayfield clears her throat and walk out of the room as if the best team of profilers weren't scrutinizing her every move.
“Oh, my god.” Emily mumbles, rolling her shoulders back with a groan. The atmosphere had switched from tense to a much more relaxed environment. “That was brutal.”
“I know what was brutal.” Derek kicked Spencer's chin, to which the younger replied with a frown. “The rejection you gave her. And that,” he points at you, shaking his head playfully as he throws the strap of his bad around his shoulder. “That's just possessiveness, princess.”
“Yeah, I don't know which one of you is worse, to be honest.” JJ raises her hands and turns back to grab her stuff.
Shrugging with an innocent expression, you say, “I've no idea what you're on about.” Penelope makes a joke and Hotch bids everyone goodbye because he'll try to see Jack before he falls asleep.
The parking lot is dark and the wind travels fast to bring you a cold breeze. When you reach your car, you notice the key is on your bag, that Spencer was currently carrying. Before you ask, a kiss is pressed against your temple and you're being pushed to the opposite side.
“I'm driving.” He clarifies when you look back at him with a puzzled gaze.
“You hate driving.” You say, putting your seatbelt on. “... particularly at night.”
“I don't hate it. It's just not my favourite thing to do, besides...” He gives you a pointed look after turning on the engine. “You're tired.”
“I'm not,” you replied stubbornly, but complains nothing else. You are tired. Despite not going to the field like everyone else, being on the office was just as much work.
Silence fills the car in its comfortable form. You're lulled to sleep with Spencer's harsh breaks and his soft humming to a pop song on the radio. He gently wakes you up when you've arrived in his place.
As you're fluttering your eyes open, you know the peace is about to be disturbed by the smug look in his pretty face. “Possessiveness, uh?” He murmurs, laugh echoing when you slap his arm as your face heats up. You have no idea what took over you a few moments ago. Well, you do know. But you weren't about to give in to him that easily. “You know you're the only one, right? I don't have eyes for anyone else.”
The truth slipping out of his tongue is completely unnecessary, but welcomed. Reassurance is important, even if you trusted Spencer in the tip of a cliff with eyes closed.
“I know.” You say, smiling when he leans into your palm. Drawing invisible patterns in his cheek, you pull him closer to close your gap. This time, the kiss doesn't carry anything other than tenderness.
Now it's his turn to grips the scarf, he holds both ends, tugging you impossibly closer. “And you,” he stares down at your lips, teasingly. “... you are who I'll always want to come home to. No doubt in that. Understood?”
You let out a hum in contentment while kissing him as an answer. One hundred percent understood.

NEVER AGAIN - POPPY’S PLAYTIME
Tumblr media
summary ; never thought you would come back here, especially meeting your old lover here.
part 2 ; here
a/n ; i like the theory that dogday is possessed by rich, so we finna roll with that
warnings ; slightly gore, cussing, reader is a female but can be read as any gender, mention of divorcing, lowkey short
Tumblr media
APRIL 6TH, 1991
“are you sure you need to go to work?” you plead, but to no refusal was coming out of him. he was quick to put his work clothes on, ignoring any pleading that had came out of your mouth. he was surely a pain in the ass.
today was yours and rich’s wedding anniversary, but of course, work comes first, and when they gave him a call asking if he could monitor the new shipment, he was quick on his feet.
it wasn’t common for rich to drop everything and go to that factory, hell, he was so close to dipping out the wedding, but before his mother threatened to take away all the inheritance he was gonna get if she ever died.
it was like his job mattered more then you did, and it hurt. the truth always hurt.
either way, the job of his was weird. it was a factory that specialized in children’s toys, and rich was one of the workers there. everyday when he would come home, he would complain on and on again on how terrible the work conditions were at his job, yet, he would do anything for that job.
“yes, i have to.” he replied, putting on his badge, which had a personalized name tag along with it.
sighing, you walked away from the male, tired that he was going away to his job again, and especially since he had gotten more ticked off lately. it was making you more stressed, and you were close to divorcing him and leaving him on the spot, him and his weird job that he always seems to care about.
but you can’t. that’s the love of your life, your high school sweetheart, the man you always set your eyes on. you can’t just drop everything and leave, like he always does. it’s hard for you to understand what’s happening, but you know that no matter what, you’re staying with this man, till death part the both of you.
JULY 30TH 1994
rich has been acting more off edge now, ever since he has been demoted to the ‘rejected toys room’, which he thought was insane of the company to do. you suggested quitting the job and finding a better one, but rich quickly declined the idea, saying it’s better to stay than leave.
at least he still has avery, who he always have lunch with on fridays. the both of them are good friends, which you’re glad that at least he has someone at work to talk to.
recently, the two of you have been distant, you running around the house making sure it’s clean and food is ready for your husband, in return, you husband working his ass off at the weird factory, always getting angry at every little thing.
it’s more harder that now you have random plush toys in your house, rich says that it’s to calm him down, but you think that they look creepy.
one though, the dog plush, was your favorite, despite its huge smile and its black menacing eyes that stares right into your soul. it had a vanilla scent, and its name was ‘dogday’, which you found adorable.
you would always carry around the plush toy, talking to it as if it was rich, cuddling with it in bed since rich is not there half of the time, pretending that it’s rich but as a plush.
it might seem pathetic, but you missed your husband dearly. you would’ve never guessed how much the two of you have been distant, and how you were slowly feeling replaced by this job. it was all crumbling down on you, but at least you had the dogday plush, it was cute.
either way, you have to thank rich for the plush, it was like a therapy plush. the others plush were nice, but you personally had a bias towards the dog one, as you liked dogs. the catnap plush was a close second.
hopefully, you can reconnect with your husband, maybe beg his boss to give him some time off, have a vacation with each other? just anything to be with him.
PRESENT DAY
now you thank the lord above that you never worked here.
poppy had purposefully crashed the train, resulting in the two of you being separated and you being dropped down a shoot. thankfully, you were quick to get out, realizing that you were now in the playcare sector of the factory. you went through the orphanage, saw catnap who scared the daylights out of you, had a hallucinations, saw a weird looking huggy wuggy, went through the school and always got killed by the teacher, saw catnap worshipping the prototype, and now you were in the playhouse part of the playcare.
how huge was this place again?
crawling through the playhouse, you were met with many of the mini smiling critters, which you thought were adorable. until they started to bite you. using the flare gun , they went away quicker than they came to you.
you felt odd in the playhouse, navigating through the plush maze. the critters followed your every room, but using your flare gun, they went away.
finally, seeing a door, you went through it, being surprised as you saw an empty pool room, with ducks being inside it. it felt uneasy, and you had a frown on your face, thinking that it was going to be an exit.
walking to another door on the other side of the room, you were met with a sort of jail type place, made with plush mats, of course. everything was unnerving, some of the jail cells were broken off, there were dead toys everywhere. some were hanged, some had blood bleeding out of its eyes or neck, some completely didn’t even have a head.
“you .. you’re poppy’s angel ..” your eyes widen, your heart dropped. that voice, it sounded familiar.
you look to see a chained up life-sized dogday, his lower half being cut off from his body, a belt being wrapped around his waist to probably contain the rest of his organs inside. it was horrific, his voice, his black soulless eyes.
“come to save us.” your hand made its way to cover your mouth, trying to contain the scream that was going to come out your mouth. you felt your face growing hot, your ears canceling out whatever he had to say. your emotions were going everywhere, nothing made sense. you thought he was dead, you thought he was 6 feet underground, you thought he wasn’t here no more.
but there is was, all in his glory. well, not quite glory.
“listen to me, you need to get out of this place.” you didn’t say a word, your eyes locking with his soulless ones. it all connected. there was a reason they didn’t want you to see his face, there was a reason it took weeks for them to retrieve his body, there was a reason why the funeral home was confused on why there wasn’t a body. there was a reason why your husband was taken away from you in this God awful place that called itself a loving place.
“i’m not going.” you could practically feel him gasp. the dog — rich, pleaded with you. trying to make you go, saying how the mini critters will come after him, how catnap will come after you.
but nothing was going to make you leave, nothing was going to make you leave your husband once again. nothing was going to let you from not stopping him as he walked out that door to his job. nothing was going to repeat itself once again.

Can you please write a Michael smut where he takes readers virginity with a lot of praise or mutual masterbation please plz
TO DE-STRESS A FRIEND
Anon,that ask rocked my shit! and lucky you i love writing about virginity loss! hope you like it! <3
Summary: Living the life of a young adult was stressing you out,you needed your best friend Mike to help you relax
Warnings: Smut , minors DNI,unprotected sex,fingering,virginity loss,mutual masturbation,afab!reader,let me know if i forget any.
You are responsible for your media comsumption.
Tumblr media
You swear that one of these days you will make it to the front page of the news,the headboard will say "local college girl goes insane".
The stress were just over the board for you,the pressure at college,maintaining a minimun wage job to pay rent of the cubicle appartment you called a home. You needed to relax. So you just did the best thing you thought off.
"Hey,i picked up pizza!" Mike greeted at the door with a smile as you let him in.
Mike has always been your best friend,he was the only one that would be kind to you when you had to change schools for junior year,and youve been inseparable since,it was weird to see one without the other,and all you needed to calm yourself down were your best friend.
"Thank god you´re here! i think i´m gonna explode!."
You sank yourself on your old couch on the small living room sighing deeply,hearing Mike´s chuckle from the kitchen as he fetched you both plates for the cheesy delight.
"Relax,two more years and youll have your degree." He smiled at you with those sweet brown puppy eyes that could easily melt your heart.
You´ve been into Mike since the first homecoming you two attended together,its been you two in all events since,graduations,proms,homecomings,halloween parties,always matching outfits and always glued to one another.
As just friends of course! It´d be way too awkward to ruin the best friendship you ever had,but the caring way mike always made those nights special for you,even tho he thinks they´re lame,he always proteced you from creepy guys and mean girls at school,he listened to you ramble about your interests,he made you feel confortable and safe,and happy...
...but just as friends of course!
"Ugh,all that suffering for a lousy piece of paper!" You reflect while getting your plate of pizza (your favourite flavour of course,mike always remembered which one it is) "Just pop in the movie already!"
You took a bite of your dinner and watched as mike popped the cd on,then sitting by your side while the movie started.It wasnt a very interesting one but it was good enough to keep you both entertained. Your leg lazily hung on top of michaels and the mood was peaceful,until it wasnt.
You knew this movie were r-rated,but you didnt expect to see that,that one hot actor that been distracting you the whole movie is the one getting it on in the scene,you squirm a little,wishing you could excuse yourself to your room and let your toy do the job of settling the throb between your legs.
Mike´s eyes on you were´nt helping said throb either,you knew he could tell what happened and weirdly enough the shame of it was thrilling you more.
"You okay?" He asked suspiciouly
"Huh? Uhm,sure...." Making eye contact with him while the moans kept going on the background proved to be a hard task.
"Really? You seem...agitated" To say that was an understatement,your thoughts of mike were running wild,to the point where you could feel your underwear cling to your soaked heat.
"I´m...uhm...i am...." Mike´s sincere concern about your well being and how sweet he was about it were thriling you on even more,to the point where you couldnt muster up any words.
"I get it,you´re into that short guy on the screen" He said jealously "The scene clearly messed you,its okay if you need to...yknow...reliev yourself"
You were mortified by his words,but something about the thrill of being watched by michael´s sweet puppy eyes were making your fire burn higher.
Without taking your eyes from his and unsure of how he´d react,you slowly slid your hand into the hem of your pyjama bottoms,his lustful eyes following every movement of yours carefully,his breathing getting heavier by the moment.
"Fuck..." He whispered when you let out a low whimper as your cold finger finally found your needy clit.
You kept on staring at each othe while you pleasured yourself and after a few minutes the tent on his pants were hard to miss,and the way his hands tended to it were even harder to miss.
The movie behind you were long forgotten,the gasps and whimpers of you both were drowning the small space,eyes glued on one another and hands unable to stop pleasuring yourselfs.
"God,i cant wait any longer!" Mike pulled you suddenly on his lap kissing you deeply and passionately,swallowing your whimpers as you grinded on his lap,frenetic hands locked on the hem of his shirt pulling it over his head.
Your eyes lock on his shirtless figure and his hands caressed your waist below your shirt,goosebumps coming from your back. His hot lips went down with open mouthed kisses on your neck,a satisfied grin on his face as he took off your pyjama shirt and met your braless torso.
"Youre gonna be the death of me..." He huffed out in a breath.
You could´nt even think about responding before you felt his hot tongue on your nipple,he sucked on your breasts like his life depended on it,erupting multiples whines from you,the fire getting higher and higher between the both of you.
You snapped back to reality once you felt his hand grip your thigh strongly,inching closer and closer to where you were soaked for him.
"Mike wait!" You breathed out and he immediately stopped his ministrations,staring at you wide eyed.
"I´m so sorry,the sounds you were making,i thought you were liking it" his voice leaked of honesty.
"I´ts not that mikey,it feels great im just...i...never did this..."
"Oh,youre..."
"A virgin,yes,pathetic i know" The weight of being a twenty two year old vigin sank on you after that.
"Hey hey its fine!" He cupped your face gently and looked into your eyes,so tenderly you nearly forgot you were both half naked. "It´s all right...you should have told me sooner...if you wanna move on with it,i wanna make it special for you,like you deserve" He strokes your cheecks lovingly and you dont even need to think twice.
You threw your hands around his neck and pulled him closer kissing him with all the need in your heart.
"Please michael...make me yours"
He got up with you on his lap bringing you into your bedroom laying you gently on your bed,slowly peeling you off your shorts,you were only in your underwear now,laying in bed in front of your best friend.
"You look beautiful."
He dives into another deep kiss sliding his hands closer to where you need him the most.
"May i?" He asks teasing your hips with the elastic of your panties,you nod giving him acces to your whole body.
He slides a first finger into you with ease,revelling at the sweet moan you let out.
"Fuck baby you´re so wet"
Baby. You liked being called that,specially when mike did it. His kisses were growing desperate and erratic,just as the pace of his now two figers inside you.
"Mike,please,stop" You mutter almost out of breath opening your eyes and seeing his worried expression "Wanna cum on your cock,please."
Michael´s painfully hard cock nearly busted hearing those words come out of you,how could he deny anything you asked for? He was always putty to your wishes.
his hands quickly fumbled with the fly of his pants,making you giggle at his eagerness to get undressed,when he finally did your laugh got stifled at the sight.
His big red angry cock sprung free hitting him back in his abdomen,there was no way in hell that could fit inside your tiny virgin hole,he could see the worry in your eyes clear as day.
"Relax,ill be gentle..."
He kissed you again removing your panties now leaving you bare for him,the sight itself of you naked and wet for him,with that adorable blush on your face was driving him nuts. He drew his body closer to yours until his tip was teasing your entrance.
"You ready baby?" He asked,you nodded,and his fat tip was inside you.
You both gasped in unission at the feeling,his hands holding yours giving it a slight grip,signaling he was gonna push more in. The moan you let out were other wordly,busting his usually low ego and egging him on pleasuring you.
"Fuck baby youre so tight" With a final push and a guttural groan he was fully inside you.
The disconfort and euphoria were fighting to see who would take place on your expressions. Mike gave you a few minutes until you got used to the feeling of his shaft deflowering you,the pain turned into needines at any growing second,until it was unberable for you to have him inside you and not moving.
"Mike please,i need you to move" Your wish was his command.
He thrusted in you slow and deep,every time he bottomed himself you let out a moan,and each time you moaned he moved faster,making you moan more. It was a vicious cycle and before you could even register he was fucking you senseless.
You were flirting with your orgasm,only needing that one final push to send you over the edge.
"Mike,fuck,i´m so close" you whined out,only needing his sweet final push.
"Come on baby,be good and cum for me,feel good for me."
You couldn´t hold it at his praise,moaning his name loudly followed by a string of profanities. He was hypnotized by the sight of your orgasm,seeing you trash and moan underneath him,his hips moving on his own as you ride your high.
"Oh,fuck baby,watch me cum so good for you"
He pulled it out jerking off quickly on top of you painting your pretty tits white his seed before collapsing tired on top of you.
"So..." He rolls to your side holding your hand and laying close to you "Did you liked it? Are you okay?" You chuckled at the shift in his personality.
"It was amazing..." Your voice was hoarse from all the moaning "My legs will definetely be sore by the morning and i have class tomorrow" You laugh a little
"You can afford to miss class one day,you need to de-stress" He kissed your temple as you both drifted into a peaceful post sex sleep.
I guess yiu were more relaxed after all...
Tumblr media
Gosh,i suck at endings and i´m writing this at four AM so i hope it doesnt suck!

For that Ned Stark request...I was thinking a smut with low-born reader, maybe - I don't really know if your comfortable writing about cheating, or it could be before Catelyn during the war or after - he could be needing relief due to stress or pressure and reader could acting like a bit of a minx...
It was hard not to be an admirer of the Stark men especially when you were always so close by them. One Stark man that is. ever since your arrival at Winterfell it was hard to keep your eyes off Ned Stark.
You had come to Winterfell a few weeks ago for work and ended up getting a job in the kitchens as a baker. It often meant you were awake before the sun to make the bread for everyone else’s breakfast. However, once you were finished with your work for the day around noon you were free to do as you pleased unless the chef requested your assistance on an extra shift.
One morning for you and night for everyone else you awoke to venture down to the kitchens to prepare the seemingly never endless amount of bread needed for Winterfell. There were other bakers as well of course but you were always the first to arrive at the kitchens each morning.
The moon was still shining brightly over the castle, and you walked slowly to bask in its light. There was no one else awake and wandering the corridors so you didn’t bother to much with your clothes. You had of course thrown on a dress, but your chest was very much exposed in it, something you enjoyed doing but the up tightness of the rest of the North seemed to frown upon. You also opted to carrying your cloak and savour the cold breeze on your walk as once you reached the kitchens you knew you would be sweating till you left them. Any other time of day and you may have felt exposed at your careless dress.
The walk also served as a time for you to try and wake yourself, something you apparently had not been doing well. Perhaps he moved with swift silence or maybe you were too tired to notice but when you turned the corner suddenly you smacked into the man you admired in secret.
It was not a soft bump either as a yelp came from your lips and Ned had to grab your shoulders to steady you, “My Lord, I’m so sorry,” you breathed out, suddenly awake, “I did not hear you,”
“It was an accident don’t fret. I didn’t hear you either” he assured you, his hands lingering on your shoulders. The warmth of his touch comforted you more than his words, “What are you doing up so late?”
“So early,” you corrected with a small smirk, too tired to bite your tongue. Luckily Ned chuckled as his hands fell from your shoulders and suddenly you were cold again, “I’m off to start preparing the bread milord,”
“Ah a baker,” Ned smiled down at you, “I never realised how early you had to wake up,”
“Its hard to get used to,” you admitted, smiling yourself in his company, “But we do what we must. Im sure others have it much harder,”
Neds smile faltered before a sad one replaced it, “We do what we must,” he agreed, “I suppose I should let you get to it,” he said as he turned to walk away.
Without thinking, just wishing for a few more words, your hand shot out to grab his arm gently. Ned turned round with eyebrows furrowed but no anger in his face, “If you don’t mind me asking milord is everything okay? it’s awfully late for someone who has not slept to be awake,”
Ned sighed, “It is,” but you saw him force the smile back onto his face, “I couldn’t sleep very well. My mind is…very active at times,”
“I’m sorry milord,” your hand was still on his arm but slipped down to just above his wrist, your fingers ghosting the edge of the fabric of his sleeve, “If you ever need a friend milord, I’ve been told im an excellent listener,”
“I appreciate that truly, but I do not wish to burden you,”
“Tis not a burden milord. It is my desire to serve house Stark,” you told him, suddenly feeling bolder at how he allowed your touch. You lowered your hand to hold his softly and he let you. “Whether it be in baking your bread or lending an ear or whatever you desire milord. I came to Winterfell to serve,” his hands were rough and callused but warm and you craved his touch when you felt how they were against your own skin.
Neds’ breath caught in his throat, “You honour me…” he trailed off, waiting for you to give your name which you did. “(Y/N),” it sounded so sweet off his tongue, “But I think it is time I found a bed,”
“Very well milord,” you took your hand back from his and you swore you saw him reach for it again before correcting himself, “Sweet sleep milord,” and with that you walked away, deliberately slow with a slight sway in your hips as you felt his eyes on you. however, once you turned the corridor you scurried to the kitchens
That was your first encounter with Lord Eddard but not your last. Occasionally you began to bump into the Lord on your walks to the kitchens. You were beginning to think he deliberately stayed up later to see you but then you had began waking earlier as well. He began to walk you down to the kitchens, sometimes even talking with you in the kitchen as you awaited your fellow bakers. Slowly but surely, he began to open to you.
He told you of the struggles he had with his fellow lords and his general duties but then he confirmed what many had speculated. He had essentially separated from Lady Catelyn after many arguments and fights. She had taken up her own chambers and only spoke to him regarding their children or in front of the other nobles.
From the bags around his eyes, you could tell it had not been an easy conclusion to come to. “It must be so hard to have to sleep alone again,” you said as you walked to the kitchens, Ned by your side.
Ned sighed but nodded, “Aye well I don’t know what else I can do,”
“There’s nothing you can do,”
“I made a vow,”
“It is not your fault she won’t let you love her,” you told him, trying to bring him some comfort, “You swore to protect her, and you have, give her children which you did, you have broken no vow,”
Another heavy sigh fell from his lips. You linked your arm with his, something you knew he was originally hesitant of but not once had someone even seen you walking together so now, he was more open to your touches. “I don’t understand how she could do it,” you said, and Ned shot you a curious look, “If you were my husband, I don’t think I would be able to leave your chambers to start with,” you said with a teasing smile.
Ned chuckled at your boldness. Up until now he had never reciprocated your flirtations or innuendos, you had even noticed him glancing at your chest in the past. He would always chuckle and move on. “If you were my wife, I wouldn’t let you leave them,” this night was different.
“You flatter me milord,” you said, placing a hand to your chest in fake shock.
His eyes lingered on your chest before flickering back up to your face that still wore its teasing smirk, “I’m sure you’ve experienced much flattery before,”
“I have,” your cockiness made him laugh again, “but hearing it from you is the sweetest of sounds,”
“You pay me too much mind,” he chastised with a smile. “I enjoy our early mornings,” he confessed.
You stopped walking, now outside of the kitchen door you would be trapped behind for hours, “As do I. I only wish…” you trailed off, your eyes never leaving his.
“Wish what?” he asked.
Stepping closer, you rested your hand on his chest. You only wished you could strip him of his tunic right there, “That you would finally invite me to your chambers,”
“I- “Ned began to stutter.
 But you pressed a quick kiss to his cheek before placing your hand on the handle to the kitchen, “I need to go to work. Goodbye Milord,” you grinned before quickly disappearing into the kitchens leaving a shocked Ned behind.
Perhaps you had went to far when Ned did not appear the next morning for your usual stroll however it got more curious when you learned he did not appear in any halls. The servants and staff at Winterfell were like flies on the wall so it did not take long to hear what had happened. Apparently, breakfast had been tense for seemingly no reason then Ned withdrew completely to the gods wood where he stayed till dinner. While the rest of the Starks dined, he went to his chambers, not even taking a bite of food with him.
Luckily you were friends with the people cleaning up the kitchens after dinner, so they didn’t comment on the food you had swopped into your basket. Even when the halls were busy no one seemed to notice you. you were able to get to Ned’s chambers in no time, somewhere you had dreamed of but never entered.
Before you knocked you pressed your ear against the door listening for any sounds before knocking when you were sure he was alone. “Who is it?” a grumpy voice shouted through the door.
“It’s me milord,” There was silence again for a moment before the door opened revealing Ned in just his undershirt and trousers, “I brought you some supper milord,”
Ned glanced up the empty hallway first before he moved to the side to let you walk in. his chambers were filled with soft greys and blues. He had a fire going in the hearth and the drapes were drawn so only the flames and a few candles lit the room. You noticed how comfortable his four-poster bed looked in comparison to your own cot. The life of a lord you supposed.
“You’re too kind my dear,” he said as he latched the door behind you. he gestured for you to sit at the table he and you complied, placing the basket on the table. “Im sorry I couldn’t make our stroll this morning,”
“Its alright milord. You can make it up to me another time,” you said with a slight smirk as you began to unload the basket onto the table. Ned took a seat across from you as he looked at the mini feast you had brought him, “You spoil me,”
“You deserve it milord. You work harder than anyone else at Winterfell,” you reached out to hold his hand, rubbing your thumb over the rough skin. “I worry about you,”
“You needn’t worry love,” Ned placed his hand over yours, “You’ve already done so much for me. You’ve been a gift from the gods.” You chuckled at his words. You were sure the gods would not approve of what their gift to Ned had been thinking about.
Ned ate some of his food but insisted you ate also. You moved your chair closer during your talk so you would be sat shoulder to shoulder with him. This gave you the perfect opportunity to lean in ways that exposed your chest which Ned was quick to look at. It also allowed for your hand to rest on his arm or shoulder or to wipe something off his face. Any excuse to touch him really.
You were laughing at one of his jokes when Ned smiled down at you, “I’m not sure what your fascination is with me love because no one’s ever laughed that hard at my jokes,”
“It’s not my fault no one else has appreciated you properly Lord Stark,” you leaned closer with a teasing smile. Neds’ eyes locked with yours and slowly you moved ever so closer.
Ned leaned forward slightly, faltering as he did, “We shouldn’t,” he murmured.
“Why not?” you whispered as your nose bumped with his.
“It’s wrong,”
“But how can it be wrong,” your lips were now ghosting over his, “when it feels so right?” Ned swallowed hard as he did his best not to lose composure under your gaze. “Don’t you deserve to relax Ned? To have some fun?”
The words must have got to him cause suddenly his lips crashed onto yours, his hand going to the back of your neck to hold you close. You gasped at first but quickly your lips fell into sink. It was you that introduced tongues but finally Ned didn’t seem to complain. He groaned when you pulled out of the kiss. you pulled your skirt up around your legs to allow you to climb into his lap easier before connecting your lips to his again.
His hands found your knees before slowly making their up your thighs, his fingers squeezing into the flesh at the top of your thighs. You manoeuvred slightly so that your clothed core would be above his cock which you could feel harden under the friction. Without warning you began to roll your hips into his which caused him to half groan and moan into the kiss and for his member to harden considerably more. His hands found your hips to help you set the pace.
“I want you,” you broke the kiss, pressing your forehead onto his, “I’ve been waiting all these weeks,”
Ned gripped your hips and stood up, pulling you with him. You couldn’t help a giggle as he quickly dropped you onto the bed. It was so much softer than you had imagined. Ned stood above you, his hands pulling off his shirt, “Are you sure about this love?” he asked. “We don’t have to,”
You sat up quickly, grabbing him by the waistband of his trousers to pull him closer, “I’m sure. This is what I want. I want you,”
Ned leaned down and placed a hungry kiss to your lips before you helped him rid himself of his trousers, letting his hard cock spring free. Ned crawled above you, kissing your neck, before loosening the strings at the front of your dress and pulling it down off your body, taking your shift with it. “You’re perfect,” he praised as he placed a kiss to your breast, squeezing the other with his hand.
You whined from which touch; your body almost jolting when he took your nipple into his mouth. “Please,” you whimpered under him.
“Please what?” Ned asked, realising your nipple before continuing to trail wet kisses across your skin up to your neck.
You stopped him, taking his face in your hands and looking him in his eyes. You brought his face closer to yours so that your lips brushed against his as you spoke. “Please fuck me,”
Ned’s lips crashed onto yours as his hand went between your bodies to find his cock. He took it in his hands and lined it up at your entrance, his tip rubbing against your wet folds. Finally, after weeks of tension and stress you gasped as he slid into you. a burning sensation took over your as he slowly filled you up. Ned stilled for a moment, his head lowering so he could kiss your neck. “Tell me when love,” he said, his voice husky and his eyes closed.
Finally feeling at ease, with a smirk, you began bucking your hips up, rolling them into his, causing Ned to release a loud groan, “Fuck,” he gasped as he began to thrust into you, his hands at either side of your head, “You feel so fuck- good,” Ned praised as his eyes screwed tighter shut with pleasure.
Your arm wrapped around his neck, pulling his lips to yours again for sloppy kisses as he continued his messy thrusts. Soon ned began to find a rhythm. He broke the kiss to lick his fingers before using them to rub circles on your clit. Moans began to fall from your throat, but Ned silenced them with his own lips. Your nails trailed down his back as you tried to conceal the moans he was causing.
Ned let out his own groans and soft moans which became strangled when your walls began to clench around him. You felt his cock twitching and began to roll your hips to meet him. His thrusts began faster but sloppier. Neds’ lips fell from yours, his head hanging low into your shoulder as he sped up. “Fuck, I can’t fuck,” he gasped as he quickly pulled out and fell to lay beside you, his cock still red and angry.
His hand went to move to his member, but you moved quicker. Without waiting for instruction, you moved to take him into your mouth. Ned gasped as your head bobbed up and down on his hard cock that was still wet from moments before. His hand went to your hair and within a few bobs of your mouth he was coating your mouth with his seed.
He was like a man gasping for air when you came up. “You still need to,” Ned tried to speak but you stopped him, placing a strong but brief kiss to his lips.
“Its okay milord,” you smiled as you held his face in your hands, “Another time?”
Ned grinned at your words, “Aye my lady. Another time for sure,”
No one was quite sure what had happened during Ned Starks seclusion but everyone at Winterfell noticed how much more relaxed he looked the next day.

🌲 it's late, but you just can't sleep, so kento decides he'd stay up with you, just this once, because you deserve it. 0.69k [ prompt list ] [ day one ] [ day three ]
🌲 cw. reader degrades themself, reader is gn, no pronouns are used, implied marraige
Tumblr media Tumblr media
the sounds of your muffled sniffles filled the empty room, and aside from the crackle-pop of the fireplace, it was the only noise in the whole house. you didn’t want to worry kento today. you always worried kento. well, more like he was always worried about you, but you just seemed to think it was all your fault.
you stare into the burning flames of the fireplace in front of you, the usually comforting hot air not doing its job. you sigh, and wipe your tears from your flushed cheeks, stressed. you had been thinking a lot, about how kento was always the one who paid the bills, and how you felt useless, and how you didn’t know what you were going to do with your life, but you never said a word to kento–you were worried if you did, he’d be more worried than he already is.
or, you were being selfish. but either way, kento was already making his way into the room, slipping a shirt over his messy hair. you liked when his hair was messy, it was cute. sometimes you preferred cute kento over ‘my shift ends in an hour’ kento.
“ken…” you whisper. “did i wake you up?” he shakes his head, making a beeline for the kitchen to pour himself, and you, a cup of warm coffee. he made sure to do it just the way you liked it. but the truth is, you did wake him up, and he was scared. 
you mean the world to kento, and i mean everything. opening his eyes to see you weren’t there was equivalent to four heart attacks. you were so important, he’d risk his life for you. but he wouldn’t ever tell you it’s your fault.
“you just scared me a little, don’t worry about it, hun.” he said reassuringly, finding a seat next to you in front of the fireplace. you tried to wipe your tears before he could see them, but your eyes always got so annoyingly red, and your cheeks would always be stained with the salty liquid. he noticed anyway.
he places both mugs of coffee to the side, on the bricks, and takes your face in his hands gently. “were you crying?” he asks, so gentle, just like he always was. you shook your head, but he didn’t buy it. “you can talk to me, darling, what’s the matter?”
“i feel bad, ken…” you mutter, leaning helplessly into his hands. “i feel like…i don’t contribute, and you do everything for me, and…and i feel useless.” you tell him, the tears bubbling back in your eyes. so pathetic, so stupid. how did you end up with someone like kento? 
“of course you contribute, y/n, what do you mean?” he furrowed his eyebrows, putting one of his hands on your head and picking up his coffee with the other. he took a slow sip. “you do so much, sometimes i think i don’t deserve you.”
you look away, ashamed. “i don’t do anything, kento, not even a crumb of taxes, i don’t go shopping, you do all of it!” you nearly shout, and he shushes you gently. 
“y/n, it’s okay. i know you don’t have a job, i make a lot of money, i don’t mind, sweetheart. it’s part of our relationship.” you shake your head again, hiding your face in your hands. 
“i feel so gross. its gross, ken. how do i not have a job!” you sob. he had no idea you felt like this. you felt gross? he hated that. he pries your face from your hands and presses his forehead to yours, unruly blonde hair crossing yours, and places a chaste kiss to your nose.
“do you really feel that bad, honey?” you nod. he sighs. “do you want your coffee? we can figure this out. together. i can’t have my baby all upset on me, makes me feel bad.”
you look up at him, nodding slowly.
he smiles at you, so loving, his cheeks making his eyes crinkle, and you just can’t help but smile back, after all, kento always made you feel better. always.

I got an idea for Jamil and Kalim. How would Jamil react to his S/O teaching Kalim martial arts? S/O knows it's Jamil's job to protect Kalim, but the S/O knows there's a time and place when Kalim needs to stand on his own. Maybe S/O and Jamil talk about this and ask Kalim?
Jamil’s S/O teaching Kalim Martial Arts
TW: Mild swearing, (Slightly) Jealous Jamil
Info: Headcannons; Light angst, mostly cute and silly; Jamil x Reader, Kalim and Reader (platonic)
🍓This one was fun! It's short and sweet but I really enjoy writing for both Kalim and Jamil, so I had a blast. It's finals season right now, so I have a lot of papers and tests coming up, which is why it took me so long to get this out. But! I got this done, and I have another fun write (for myself) coming sometime in the future (hopefully later this week.) Thank you so much for requesting lovely!
-Jamil has quite a hefty workload. As Kalim’s keeper he must ensure his happiness and safety at all times — even after their ‘agreement’ after his overblot. As the house warden, he has to ensure that Kalim does his tasks as housewarden plus keeping all the dorm members in line.
-Simply: he’s stressed.
-As his partner, all this stress rubs off on you too. Seeing your boyfriend constantly high-strung and on edge can take quite a bit out of you. 
-Only issue, he won’t let you help him. No matter what you do, he wants to keep you as far away from his work life as possible.
-Which is sweet! In concept! 
-He really cares so much, but dammit you want to help him!
-Soooooo… you scheme <3 
-More specifically, you scheme with Kalim.
-Sweet little Kalim who is equally worried for both you and his best friend.
-The two of you plot different ways to lighten Jamil’s load… almost all of which backfire.
-First, you try to teach him to cook… doesn’t go well and Jamil bans both of you from the kitchen.
-You attempt to teach him better cleaning tactics, but a life of being picked up after doesn’t make that easy (paired with a side of ADHD makes it nearly impossible)
-No matter what you do, there’s a blockade that makes it so difficult. 
-Then one day, you realize, you know multiple different types of martial arts. If you can’t lighten Jamil’s workload you can potentially lighten the burden of protecting Kalim.
-To your surprise, its pretty easy! Dance interoperates itself to fighting scarily well, and Kalim is a fast learner when he wants to be.
-On top of that, its fun! Spending time with Kalim is always a delight, and helping Jamil makes everything feel better.
-Only issue… you sorta forgot to tell Jamil about it.
-From his perspective, you and Kalim have been sneaking around and spending more and more time together… its suspicious.
-At first, he let it slide. He trusts you and he’s learning to trust Kalim. He figures one of you will talk before long. 
-Then… a week or two pass, and nothing from either of you. Radio silence.
-Forgive him, but a life full of Kalim taking everything from him has made him particularly sensitive to… well… Kalim related things. This, in his mind, is Kalim trying to sweep you off your feet and take you from him too… and you’re letting him.
-So he… sorta… kinda decides to follow you around one day without your knowledge because his paranoia got to him. 
-He expected to find the two of you frolicking around the desert, or canoodling in Kalim’s bed… instead he found you throwing Kalim over your shoulder like a sack of potatoes.
-Huh…?
-His first instinct is to yell at both of you, “What the hell are you doing!?!?”
-His second is to be relieved, because of course you weren’t cheating on him. With Kalim of all people. How crazy was he?
-His third is to figure out exactly what was going on, because it isn’t everyday your partner starts throwing your house warden around.
-The explanation of ‘We wanted to lighten your load so you were less stressed, so we decided to teach him martial arts!’ pretty much leaves him dumbfounded. That’s what you were so secretive about. He’s dating a moron.
-Truly though, deep down, he’s actually incredibly grateful for what you did. While it isn’t super helpful, he appreciates the thought behind it, because its you doing something nice for him. He’s not used to that, but he wants to soak it up as best as he can. 
-From then on he offers to help you out when he has free time — though you protest because its more work for him, he just wants to spend more time with you. (And he’s still a little miffed that you were spending so much time with Kalim and not him.)
-Definitely shows appreciation through his actions over the next couple of weeks. He’s more physically affectionate, gives you more gifts, and is generally more loving than he usually is in displaying his gratitude.

Right sorry but I don't understand why some people, even people that seem otherwise reasonable, seem to have absolutely internalised corporate capitalism talk to the extent that it completely subsumes their own personality and (class) interests???
At work today we had what's supposed to be an evaluation where as a department we, about 40 people, talked about things that have been difficult this year and what we'd hope will improve next year.
So I talked about how this year I have worked a lot of cover, including for managers (2 pay bands above me) and for multiple colleagues at once who have been off, essentially doubling and at some times even tripling my workload - for extra stress and no extra money. I said (using corporate language to hint) that I wasn't always good at asking for help, meaning, undertone, none of you offered to help me out and just expected me to sit and take it because I need my existing salary.
So this was in small groups, in which the focus was firstly giving feedback, and secondly remembering to praise each other for our achievements.
Well the nominated speaker for our group comes on and immediately my story of struggling to do a large amount of extra tasks that are essentially literally taking advantage of someone in a position of little power, actively causing stress to myself at work, for no extra money or any kind of reward but 'helping out the team' is told to the group as "sometimes we had to take on extra responsibilities but that was good because it let us learn about our inner strength and learn more about the business, increasing our skills for the future".
Excuse me! That was not AT ALL what I was talking about!
I already work a valuable job in healthcare. I ALREADY have skills - HENCE I was able to cover for senior team members and keep everything running and going literally at the cost of my social life, mental and physical health. And you aren't even going to say thanks or well done?! In the meeting where that is meant to be the focus?? In fact you're actually going to remove my agency and reframe the story of my own struggle and sacrifice to help out that I told you into some kind of heartwarming Disney ending where the servant felt that the work was its own reward?!
No sorry, get to fuck with that.
Ironically as a result of the teambuilding, feedback, evaluation and celebrating success meeting, I've come out feeling absolutely disheartened. They were like robots. I wasn't the only one that's made sacrifices like this this year, but I was the only one who didn't try and reframe it into a positive, with a neat learning experience and lesson for the group at the end of it.
This is the same workplace that asked us what we would like to add to the workplace to improve our own wellbeing (I reiterate, working in a stressful healthcare provider) and then shot down everything we suggested, even those things that wouldn't involve paying us more or giving us more time off. We were told that we could work longer hours in order to be able to 'earn' a team 'lunch out' during the work day (that of course we would also pay for), or that we could do a 'wellbeing walk' while also having a meeting, so... not exactly an opportunity to de-stress during the work day!
Honestly, I don't understand why these people don't pick up that they are becoming the architects of their own misery, constructing cages of their own making around themselves - and me! We don't have to play the game and turn everything into a positive. That isn't good for mental health OR morale overall either - it's just, ironically for the health background, putting a sticking plaster over a bigger wound. We need to grow up and actually address the issues we have as adults otherwise experienced and valuable staff are just going to end up burning out - which then increases the workload on everyone else and risks bringing the whole system back to square 1.

college au! miguel
best friends..maybe to lovers? some much needed comfort from mig because i’m going through it and was tired of scrolling through pure smut at the moment.
cw: in depth description of anxiety and panic and feelings on loneliness, little bit of blood for like a second but no SH or anything like that.
this is entirely self indulgent.. just let me live
not edited
Tumblr media
You were used to telling everyone you were fine, even when you weren’t, especially when you weren’t. At this point you didn’t know if it was more because you didn’t get the help you needed growing up, even when you did ask for it, or because everyone ultimately just assumed you were fine. You always seemed that way on the outside, grown accustomed to dealing with everything alone and discreetly as possible. “Quiet as a mouse,” you always told yourself that’s what you had to be.
But for some reason your study buddy, Miguel, was the one person who never seemed to believe you. You two had grown friendly quickly and were in most of the same classes so you had agreed to study together and help keep each other on track. However after a while you started hanging out outside of study sessions. You’d get food after class, go to parties, even went to the gym together sometimes.
That was freshman year, and now as juniors you could confidently say Miguel was probably your closest friend. You had plenty others, and you loved you little group, and time with the girls. But you two were inseparable and everybody saw it. obviously you two had kept your distance to an extent though.
it was great to have such a connection with somebody, but of course it came with its downsides too.
He saw right through every bullshit lie and excuse you made when you were feeling off. You hadn’t explicitly mentioned your struggles with mental health but you hadn’t exactly tried to hide it either. But just like with everybody else you did your best to keep not just the worst, but all of it from him. Which meant to an extent, you’d always had your guard up which created a considerable amount of distance between the two of you that had been there ever since you started getting genuinely close. He didn’t push it too much though, you knew it was because he had some secret of his own. He’d disappear for an hour or two, sometimes for days, missing classes even and show up clearly injured and having had been in a fight. Bruised knuckles and even ribs were a regular occurrence for Miguel Ohara. But he didn’t push, so neither did you.
This time around was no different. Your anxiety was getting worse with the stress of finals coming up and because of work you hadn’t been getting to the gym as much. lifting was the thing that helped the most, your main outlet. You’d had three panic attacks this week and you only felt it getting worse. You couldn’t fall asleep until 1 because your mind was racing, and usually woke up around 5 already sweating and your heart racing. It was hell. But you still managed to get through classes, work, and your two hour study sessions with Miguel and the rest of the crew after your shift. When you weren’t too nauseas you’d go to the gym before class but recently that plan hadn’t been working. Besides, the only meals you were getting in was a sad excuse for lunch made up of snacks you could grab between afternoon lectures and whatever leftovers you could snag from the kitchens at work. This Friday night though, you had a rare off day and instead had agreed to go get food with everyone else at the dining hall before everyone was supposed to get ready for the Faded4Finals party.
You sat around the table as everyone complained about their classes and their jobs or gossiped. To be honest their words kind of muddled together as you sat there picking at the skin around your fingers. Everything was kind of just a numbed out blur until you felt the back of someones knuckle gently brush up and down right above your elbow. You snapped out of your racing thoughts and turned your head to see Miguel looking at you with furrowed brows and the little frown he always gave you when he thought something was wrong. His knuckle keeps tracing small lines up and down.
“You okay?”
You force a smile, something that comes almost more naturally than your actual smile. “Yeah I’m good, just thinking about what I want to wear tonight.”
He whispers so only you can hear him over the chatter of your friends shouting about something or other “are you hungry, do you want me to grab you something?”
“No I’m okay, not really hungry right now.” His frown deepens a little but he just nods.
“Ya know I was thinking of ditching the party, not really feeling it, do you want to come over and chill? Maybe get a late night lift in?”
“Uhm mig you know I think I’m actually just gonna head back to my room.” You turn away from him to address the group. “Guys I’m gonna go start getting ready and I’ll actually just meet you there if that’s ok?” A lie. You had no intention of going to that party. His hand falls from your arm as you abruptly get up. You don’t even wait for them to say anything before pushing your chair in and heading to the door. You hear Miguel say your name before you walk away but you pretend not to and keep walking.
You practically rush to your dorm the feeling in your chest that you’d been pushing down all day tightening quicker and quicker. You barely make it to your room before collapsing against the closed door, sliding down to the ground as your breath becomes broken and hitched.
You knew what to do in this situation of course, you’d taught yourself how to deal with attacks when you were little purely through trial and error. Cold water, pressure on your chest, count your breathing, distract yourself, etc. but recently those things hadn’t been helping as much.
You eventually slow your breathing enough to drag yourself to the bed before curling up under your weighted blanket with your back pressed to the wall. It wasn’t much for a sense of security and comfort, but it would have to do. About 45 minutes later you heard a soft knock on the door. You were planning to just ignore it, assuming it was Jaz or someone else making sure you were ready for the party. Until you heard another gentle knock and a voice from the other side. His voice.
“Y/N? Are you in there?”
You didn’t wanna open the door. If it were anyone else you could lie and smile and joke and everything would be fine. But you couldn’t lie to him no matter how hard you tried and especially right now you couldn’t handle him seeing you like this. He’d know. But he wasn’t leaving
“Y/n Im not trying to bother you or anything I just.. will you please.. open the door? Just for a second.”
Only for him. Only for him you drag yourself out from under the heavy layer of blankets and hastily wipe your face with some wipes to remove the mascara before trying to dry your eyes with your sleeves. But nothing will hide how puffy your face is. Slowly you open the door and peer out to be met with your best friend holding multiple bags full of..
“I uhm.. I brought you food. Your favorite, the noodle dish you like from that place on sixth street. Oh and I also got the mango tea and water just in case. And because this dish doesn’t have a lot of produceI stopped to get some fruit. Not! That you have to eat it if you don’t want to of course I won’t judge you we all need junk food sometimes but I know how you said you feel gross when you don’t have enough… fiber.”
He blows out an awkward breath looking down at the ground suddenly realizing he’s been rambling. A gently pink creeps up his neck and onto the tips of his ears as he stands in your doorway awkwardly. You still haven’t said anything and he begins to regret his decision.
“I- just when you left the dining hall without eating anything I felt bad and so I.. yeah. I just wanted to make sure you ate.”
“Thank you mig but really I just want to be alone I need to get ready for this party.”
“Do you really think you should go right now.. I mean somethings clearly up with you..”
“I said I was fine.” You sound much more defensive and angry than you want to.
He looks back up at you but you avoid meeting his eyes still trying to hide how puffy your face was.
“I know you did. But… I check on you even when you say you’re fine. And I bring you food even when you say you’re not hungry. Aaand I come ready with your favorite movie even when you say you want to be alone because I’m,” he pauses not exactly wanting to say the next two words, “your…friend. Friends don’t leave each other to deal with things alone.”
You bite the inside of your cheek hard to stop yourself from bursting into tears right then and there. This man had driven halfway across town for your favorite meal and snacks to come try and comfort you, and while you’d do and had done the same for your friends even when they didn’t seem to need it nobody had ever done it for you. Everything in his voice sounded genuine, he cared. Before you could even process the emotions bubbling to the surface he sucks in a breath and starts again.
“We don’t have to watch the movie of course, I don’t even have to come in.. if you don’t want but at least eat.. please.”
“Miguel I-“
“Im not trying to smother you I just,” the next part comes out mumbled, “I worry about you cariño.”
You look at him hands full of things he got just for you, staring at you with puppy dog eyes and cheeks slightly pink. Everything that you were worried about seems to be forgotten for a moment as your best friend stands before you wearing the same concerned frown as always. So against your better judgment you reach out to put a hand on his arm and say “thank you” before finally stepping aside and opening the door enough for him to step in. Your grateful he doesn’t comment on how red your eyes are as he unloads all the contents of the various bags onto the table before he makes himself at home on your bed and starts setting up his laptop. He picks up the tea and beckons you over to take it and settle yourself next to him. You oblige taking a sip of the mango drink you love so much and realizing how hungry you were. The two of you eat in silence side by side as the movie plays. You’d seen this exact movie with him at least 20 times but neither of you cared, you loved it.
You finish eating and continue watching the movie until you feel the familiar brush of his knuckle on your arm. He had started doing it when he wanted to get your attention or check up on you without drawing too much attention. So you look over at him to find him just sort of staring into space in the dimly lit room absentmindedly bushing his finger against your arm in small circles.
“What?” You ask confused
He doesn’t meet your eyes. “Why were you crying earlier?”
“I wasn’t”
He just keeps rubbing your arms slowly but doesn’t say anything for a moment. You assumed he dropped it, like he always does.
“Why do you keep lying to me y/n”
“Im not.”
He finally looks up at you. “Yeah you are. These past few weeks you’ve been having.. you’ve been off again.”
It never occurred to you that the reason he never seems to believe you is because he knows what’s wrong, most people just saw that you didn’t ask for help and assumed that you were ok. But that last sentence, it almost sounded like he was going to say that you were having panic attacks.
“Im fine Mig I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
He suddenly sits up more and pauses the movie. He turns back to you this time the frown on his face is deep and his eyes are pleading. “You haven’t been eating, you haven’t been at the gym, you look exhausted.”
“Wow.. thanks.”
“That’s- no. you know that’s not what I’m trying to say.”
“No I get it I look like a zombie.”
“Would you just-,” he sighs and grumbles under his breath “you don’t look like a zombie you look beautiful you always look beautiful.” He speaks up so you can hear him, clearly not intending for you to hear that last part. “I’m just trying to say that I can see that you’re not doing well and I want you to talk to me.”
“I don’t need to talk about anything. Everything’s fine. I’m fine.”
“I know you’re lying. I can hear it in your voice, I can see how tense you’ve been, I watch you picking at your fingers until they bleed cari- y/n please I am asking, I am begging you to let me help you.”
“I don’t need any help I can take care of it myself.”
“Yes but you don’t have to. I am here for you, I will always be here.”
Your voice threatens to break and you can’t hide how it wavers when you speak again. “But I don’t need you to be, I can fix it on my own like I always do.”
He hesitantly takes your hands in his thumbs gently stroking your wrists. You hadn’t even realized you were picking at your skin again and a bit of blood ran down your fingers. You avoid his gaze but he dips his head down to meet your eyes which are slightly wet as more tear threaten to pour out onto your face. His voice sounds soft but adamant and full of concern. “Look at me. Just because you’ve done this alone doesn’t mean you always have to. I know that you’ve been struggling with your anxiety and I haven’t wanted to say anything because you didn’t tell me but I can see that you’re not fine and I’m worried about you. If you just let me.. I can be there for you.”
The tears start to fall now and you can’t really stop them even though you try and before you can do it yourself his hands come up to cup your face brushing them away. You just sit there and cry for a moment.
“Oh cariño” you don’t fight him as he pulls you towards him easily to lean against his chest “I’m sorry I wasn’t there. I should’ve been there.”
Your voice comes out quiet, “it’s okay, you didn’t know.”
He rubs the small of your back, its odd, you’d hugged before but you’d never really been close to him in any intimate way, you both didn’t want to cross that boundary with the other and make things weird.
“I did know. Ive known for years and I shouldve insisted on being here for you sooner.”
You look up at him “How did you know?”
“Lets just say I’m.. really perceptive” he gives you a soft goofy grin
You smile at him slightly, and he seems relieved that you did. It’s the first real smile you’ve given anyone in weeks.
“Mig?”
“Hmm?”
“Will.. will you put the movie back on?”
He chuckles softly and leans forward to push play but makes no attempt to move you off him and you make no attempt to move away. As the movie resumes playing he settles back against the pillows with you still laying against his chest with his hand resting on your back. you stayed like that, and for the first time in almost a month, you drifted off to sleep easily.

[NSFW] Death x Male!Reader
Tumblr media Tumblr media
let's start this blog off with something small. submissive death/lobo in lingerie, a request from one of my twitter mutuals
[ cw: lingerie, sub/bottom death, m/m content ]
Tumblr media
☙ Submissive Death/Lobo ❧
He's possessive to a fault. He is absolutely down bad for you. If you don't learn how to handle him in time... well, good luck.
Despite the aggression he usually shows toward other people, it's usually because of the stress that comes from his job. Whenever he's alone with you, his personality changes completely.
Drools at the mere sight of you when you're alone together. Even just the smell of your body is enough to drive him up the wall.
He's down for anything you ask of him... as long as it's within reason. A little experimenting never hurt anybody, right?
Of course, you decided to test that by giving him a surprise gift one day: an outfit you bought from a local tailor in a nearby city.
You needed to have it specially tailored to fit his height. But to you, it was worth it once you convinced him to wear it.
Apparently, the outfit fitted him rather too well.
Death wasn't the type of person to play dress-up… not without good reason... But tonight, he couldn't deny that he looked good in it.
In fact, it suited him almost too well. The lingerie hugged all the right spots of his body, even in spite of his massive physique compared to most living beings. The black laced top cupped the curves of his chest, the straps doing well to hold the apparel in its place. 
And not to mention the skirt you gave him, which was too short than either of you had anticipated, barely doing well to hide the black laced thong he was wearing underneath.
Hell, if the wolf was to bend over in any capacity, he was certain that a part of himself would show itself… one he'd rather not think about.
"Oye. Like what you see, mi amor?" Death asks, his face tinted red from embarrassment, his tail flicking aggressively behind him. He could feel the pressure between his thighs growing with each passing second, threatening to taint the very fabrics of his thong...
Strangely, it fits him almost too well.
Gets very embarrassed when you point out how good he looks in it. Death will graciously accept the compliments, but don't point out how much his tail is wagging, or you'll never hear the end of it.
Willing to get on his hands and knees if you ask him to. May take some further convincing, though, so good luck on that front.
His cock practically throbs for you. It's all yours—only yours.
Very needy. Any attention you give him, he'll eat it up.
Loves it when you go rough on him, but he won't force it on you.
Your touch means everything to him. Go on, let your fingers grace his fur. Let your hands feel his body. He loves it. He craves it.
Call him a good dog. He's your good dog. Despite all the protest and growling he gives you whenever you do, he loves the praise.
He asks to mark you every now and then. Not as intense as you'd think, just his claws gently scratching your back, or even his teeth gently nipping at your skin. Anything to prove who you belong to.
Adores it when you moan his name. Reminds him that you're his.
The closer he gets, the more he's willing to let his animalistic side loose. His breathing grows ragged with every passing moment, claws scratching the surface beneath him—hell, his tongue may even loll out the side of his mouth now and then. If you slow down your advances, you may even hear a whimper from him.
Be prepared for the mess he makes when he eventually comes. Death rarely has the time for himself, if any at all. It only makes the most sense that he'd be rather pent-up.
Speaking of which, very vocal when coming. The moans that come out of his body are nothing you've ever heard before.
Aftercare is important to him—whatever you need, consider it done. He'll always make sure that you're okay, that you feel safe with him. He may be Death itself, but he is no monster.

Welcome to Hazbin Vale. Epilogue [Radioapple, Appleradio]
"And so, that is how it goes, my dear sinners! Our beautiful Hazbin Hotel is going to open its door to receive his Majesty King of Hell himself, Lucifer Morningstar!" The radio host reclined in his chair, letting his perpetual grin grow ever wider. The red lights above him declaring that he was on the air seemed to glow even more for a second, but no one on the other side would be ever to tell. After so many years, he had finally learned to control that damn static. For the most part at least. "It's truly an honor to receive him today and we hope that it doesn't end up on such a fruitless endeavor like his reign here has been, ha ha! Tune in next time for more hellish updates! Your good friend Alastor will see you all soon."
He turned off the microphone finally and stand up, letting a soft jazz tune to follow him around as he put on his coat. Humming along softly, he looked himself on the mirror for a moment. A few strands of hair stand out, but nothing that some brushing couldn't fix. His bowtie was perfectly centered. His smile was as deadly as always.
He grabbed his cane and sighed presenting his best pose, standing tall to show off the confidence that he absolutely, no doubt about it, had. Not a single nervous spec of cell on this entire display, no sir. No one would ever be able to tell what was going on inside of his head. Just another normal day in Hell for the Radio Demon himself.
Not at all wondering himself if maybe he had changed too much. If he was even recognizable anymore. If even if everything turned out exactly how it was supposed to, too much time had passed already for any of his hopes to have any point.
If he had wasted years expecting something that was never going to happen anyway.
Because that was a totally pointless thing to even think about, of course! The slight trembling of his hand as he fixed up the front of his shirt? A trick of the light, don't worry about it.
Taking a big breath, Alastor came out in direction to the lobby, where he could hear everyone moving about.
Thank god none of the sinners here was a party planner because they all would have been fired at their first job. Alastor doesn't know if he is more dissapointed on how bad did it look or in how much effort clearly still went into it. But oh well, he supposed that was to be expected from this group.
"That is great, everyone, it looks amazing!" encouraged a very clearly already stressed Charlie, indicating to Razzle (or Dazzle, one of the two) to fix a WELCUM DADDY sign up.
"Ssstop trying to grab one!" was saying Sir Pentious to the sneaky hands of Angel Dust, constantly trying to grab one of the pastries he had brought.
Alastor looked over where Husk was, casually drinking out of another bottle, but following Angel Dust attempts with the same attentive look of a bored cat.
Well, they were definitely together in the same space.
He had fulfilled his part of the deal and thankfully that whole thing was over. What they decided to do after that was completely out of their own volition and, frankly, he could not care less.
It had been truly a blessing in disguise that Charlie had already recluted one part of the pair before he ever spoke to her. All he had to do was bring the other with him and made sure he couldn't just ran away.
"Everyone, please, stay calm" said Charlie to no one specific, clearly needing a break herself as he clasped her own hands. "This no big deal, no big deal at all!"
"Hon, it will be fine" tried to reassure her Vaggie for what must have been the fifth time of the day. "If anyone can sell this hotel, it's going to be you."
Charlie smiled, grateful, but before she could say any more they all heard the door bell of the hotel. Alastor used one of this shadow to travel along with her to the entrance, standing politely close to the door, a respectable distance that would not look either desperate or impatient whatsoever, like some pathetic dog waiting for a treat. He was curious for seeing the king, as anyone else would.
But he still didn't even tried to open the door. Charlie didn't mind at all before she took a gulp of air. In fact, she probably haven't even noticed he was there.
"Hi, dad!"
"Charlie! It's so good to see you!"
Oh, well, this isn't fair at all, thought Alastor spitefully as he squished his cane behind his back, feeling again the rising of that familiar indignation.
Was it possible that he was even smaller now? How come that his eyes looked even bigger now? The red was definitely a good color on him. And who the fuck had the brilliant idea of giving this tiny man that sharp pointy smile, that was still somehow so warm when looking at his daughter?
He had seen pictures of him. This version of Lucifer was notorious enough that he would appear on fashion magazines from time to time, despite his reclusive nature. He had seen his wink at the camera, showing his slitted tongue playfully, had seen him even model for Asmodeous's fashion line one time or not.
The impulse of buying every single one of those images, so no one else could see them, and build his own altar out of them was there for a while, but he had managed to squandered it by sheer force of will. Truly, one of the most difficult test he had to endure. And yet, none of that had actually prepared him to seeing him in front of him. To actually hear his voice.
Who needed to breath anyway? Not him, that is for sure!
But the worst offense, the one he had to concentrate on to keep it together, was that hat. That stupid tall hat that was hiding his stupid perfect hair from view. The audacity! Clearly he had to be doing it to just annoy people as much as possible.
Charlie, the estranged daughter now, was doing her best to present the hotel without seemingly picking up how clearly not interested her father was. It was more than obvious that he had only come there at all for Charlie, to be around her, and her little side project was nothing he cared to think about too deeply.
In a way, it was weird seeing him like that. The Lucifer he knew at least pretended to be interested in other people out of a pure sense of politeness. But he imagined that it made sense that a king would not bother with empty gestures like that on his own kingdom.
Maybe the Lucifer he knew was truly gone now?
On this reality this tiny man was centuries older than him. He had lived a very long and eventful life completely on his own. He had never even put a single hoof in Earth. Everything he had experienced was far beyond what a simple toy maker on a small town could ever hope to see.
What could even be there about that Lucifer?
To say that the thought was crushing would be an understatement.
But if there was something he ever refused to be was a defeatist. He would have never reached the level of power that he was enjoying on that reality with a mentality like that. So grabbed that thought, cut his throat and buried it's body on the basement, just as he followed around as Lucifer kept going with Charlie's little tour with a much less than impressed expression.
"Well, it's got a lot of character! But what in the unholy hell is that?"
His opportunity to intervene.
"Oh, that is just some of the renovations we have done" said, transporting closer because somehow he knew he couldn't move his feet out of place. But still not too close, as if he didn't want to get caught on his orbit. Not yet at least. "Adds a little bit of color, don't you think?"
Lucifer looked positively annoyed at being talked to directly.
"And you are...?"
His heart had no right to jump the way it did as now he teleported to the side of the king. His head still reached just above his stomach so he was wrong, he was still the same height.
"Alastor, sir. Pleasure to meet you, quite the pleasure!" He took a step back to admire him full again. "It's nice to finally put a face to the name. I must say, you are lot shorter in real life."
The magazines pictures were never even close to make him justice, so that wasn't surprising either. He paid attention to Lucifer looking to Charlie for further clarification in who was the rude demon in front of him, not blushing at the sudden reminder of his height like he would in another life. Even his frown was different, more pronnounced, agressive. He truly did not care at all about appearing more approachable, did he?
"You might have heard of me from my radio show!"
He tried not to think too deeply about what it would mean if Lucifer did do that. That all of this time Lucifer had listened his voice and never once had a face either to relate to it or find anything especial about it outside of a mere form of entertainment. Just some white noise in the background while doing something else.
Luckily for him, Lucifer had not, which was still weird on itself. How out of touch was the king of hell himself to not know about one of the most notorious overlords in hell right now? They were all in the same ring. Was that some kind of classist attitude or something else?
"Well, on top of that, right now I am the host of this distinguished establishment that our dear Charlie is managing" added, brazing himself for potential disaster as he extended his hand forward. "The Radio Demon at your service, sir."
For a moment he was concerned that Lucifer would reject it or ignore it completely. His tiny toy maker had been an open book, and maybe because of that, he couldn't quite get a grasp of this man. But king of hell or not, Lucifer took one look to his daughter before taking it, rolling his eyes like this was such a big ask out of him.
The gesture seemed to froze in place at their contact. Alastor literally would not dare to move a muscle as he saw the expression of Lucifer gradually soften. By the time his red pupils looked up to him again, Alastor felt a wave of relief to see something else. Something that looked as fragile and lost like a bunny abandoned in a forest to it's own luck.
The man was looking at him as if suddenly had no idea of what to do or say.
"Alastor has been a great help around here!" helped Charlie out.
Lucifer blinked, disoriented, and Alastor regrettably let his hand go to brush at his blond hair. Was still as soft as it looked? Or it had become rough here in hell, like his hand had?
Alastor hated that is where his mind went. Hated that no doubt he was going to think about it again.
"Has he...?" questioned Lucifer, as if for a moment he had forgotten where he was. He looked over at Alastor again, squinting. "Is this the reason why this place is the Hazbin Hotel?"
Alastor's grin grew wider, realizing that none of them would truly understand that question. Not in the same way they did now.
"It was my idea" commented, now taking a step towards him.
Lucifer's eyes went up and down his figure and moved closer too, seemingly taking on the challenge.
"Well, that is not very clever, isn't it?" teased the king, raising an eyebrow.
"Oh, I beg to differ, your Majesty" answered Alastor, connecting his hands on the back to resist the urge to go touch him again. Maybe if they touched enough more of his toy maker would come out. It was an stupid idea, born of a stupid impulse, but it was a very tempting one. "I think it is a very good name."
"Do you now?" Lucifer got even closer, a little smile forming on his face, enjoying the game.
He did always loved games. That at least haven't changed. The warm that expanded over him at the realization made his shoulders relax. His voice dropped an octave, almost a whisper on that space that they had created. Soft enough to not break it.
"Absolutely."
Lucifer crossed his arms, tilting his head to the side. The pointy smile was a great look on him like that as he absent mindlely played with a lock of hair.
"You would know, I suppose."
"I do."
"Mmm."
He could have stayed looking at that little cocky smile for an eternity. Two if he got lucky.
"Um, dad? How about I present you to the rest of my friends?"
Idiot. He had completely forgotten what was the reason for that visit.
He cleared his throat and took a step back, pretending that he had lost interest on their... whatever it was. His hand gripped the top of his cane as he forced himself to calm down.
Lucifer still dedicate him one last look before turning to Charlie, letting her go through each other of the residents and staff.
Alastor couldn't help but to find amusing the way his eyes light up for a moment when it came to the turn of Husk and the slight frown when he heard the voice of Angel Dust greeting him. Did he remember far enough for that? Had he realized that was the Anthony of this reality? Or was just like the remmant of a dream, half forgotten, half remembered now?
That was something that he was also concerned about. Memories could be tricky things even on human minds that lived and died on a normal lifespan. But what effect could it actually have to add a entirely different existence on top of that one of the creator of hell? Could it hold on at all or it would vanish?
And even if he did remembered perfectly well, just as clearly as he himself did, there was no garantee that was really going to amount to anything. Not that he truly expected that it would, but the not knowing truly was the worst part.
--
By the end of the day, he was drained.
Between Mimzy suddenly appearing with a bunch of shark demons that he had to eat to protect the hotel and Lucifer getting swayed by Charlie into supporting her proyect, they didn't had any chance to exchange a word and he just felt cheated now.
Even their handshake seemed to have been far too short now. Thousands of years of waiting to see each other again and that was it? Why did he let it go at all?
The presence of that golden ring on his finger bothered him far more than what he would ever admit. Wasn't that thing with Lilith be finished already? Wasn't that a free man then?
Logically he knew that was none of his business. But what he knew on his head and what he actually wanted to do were two completely different stories.
For one, he shouldn't have let him just teleport away like that, without at least having a talk. But he didn't even know that was a thing he could do in the first place! No fucking magazine or newspaper had ever bothered to detail it. How many bullshit fallen angel abilities was hiding on that tiny body?
Not just that either. He had just reconnected with his 200 year old daughter after who knows how long and he didn't even think to staying for dinner? Just poof and until next time, kiddo. If Charlie wasn't annoyed by that, then fuck it, he was going to be annoyed on her behalf instead. Just what could be so important that he needed to get away as fast as he did and without even looking at him once? Did he had any care at all for the shit he went through in order to reach his hand? All the bodies he had to walk over to get to it?
And this time he couldn't judge him for it either, because he was already serving his time for it anyway.
Once inside of his room, he let the angry static fill the air as he took out his coat and got ride of his bowtie, each movement causing another cracking. He didn't know what did he expected, but it wasn't that, certainly not! He could leave a note or something! A promise of a another visit soon!
When he started to unbutton his shirt, that is when he heard it: a little tap tap against the glass door to his balcony. That immediately turned the static off as he got closer, confirming it further. That was peculiar. He wasn't near any tree for it's branches or leaves to ever bother him like that.
A insect, perhaps? Well, if it was big enough at least he could find some form of catharsis by crushing it himself. He moved the curtain away and looked up to see... a yellow bird.
In hell there were no yellow birds.
That alone was confusing enough until he realized the wite bird had a stupid tall hat on top of it's head and two red dots at the sides of his beak.
Ignoring the thunding on his chest, Alastor used every bit of his will to move the glass door out of his way as calmly as possibly and not desperately like the starving dog that he felt as.
"Hey" said the bird, flapping his wings towards his railing. One red poof later, Lucifer was sitting against it with an awkward smile.
Shapeshifting. Another fucking power he had no idea he had. Alastor saved that as another note on the back of his mind and smiled. Well, he always did, it was part of his brand now. But more sincere than before.
"Majesty, we have a front door if you ever need anything from us" commented, deciding to play it safe.
For now.
"Yeah... no, no, no, it's okay. I don't wanna bother Charlie for this" Lucifer looked so adorably, familiarly, lost that Alastor was pleasantly surprised. His tiny toy maker would have sported the exact same posture so many times before.
"And what this would be?" asked with fake innocence, walking towards him.
"Oh, come on" Lucifer sighed, the corner of his lips lifted in annoyance. "Are you really going to make me say it?"
"I don't understand what ever could you mean, your Highness" Alright, maybe he was enjoying a bit too much the teasing. He had a thousand years worth of it that he had to catch on. Yeah, that was going to be his excuse and not the fact he managed to see Lucifer blush, a hand scratching at his nape. Absolutely not the pure delight of knowing he could get those reactions out of him still. "Did we had any unsolved business you and I? I wouldn't have known with how quickly you left us. You seemed to be in a hurry."
Maybe he also just liked to be petty.
By now they were so close that he just had to extend his hand a little and he would touch him again. He would feel his stripped vest so easily if he wanted to. But his hand remained in place.
"Okay" Lucifer took a deep breath and let it go, both of his hand lifted to brush his hair back. When he looked up again, he almost seemed pained. "I am just going to ask this one time and then I will leave. Please, don't make a big deal out of it."
The smile on his face froze. Leave? Again!?
"Sure" said as if talking through nails.
Lucifer's eyes still darted around, hesitating. Alastor would have usually find that endearing in a nostalgic way, but now it was just making him even more impatient.
"Alright. So... this going to sound very crazy, but... have we met before?"
Alastor internally screamed.
Lucifer was confused. That was to be expected. Just suddenly having a bunch of memories out of nowhere in someone's head was bound to do that for that peson.
He knew that, rationally speaking. But more importantly, what was that talk about leaving if he did remember? Didn't he know already that was literally the worst thing he could do to him?
"Why?" said and he knew that was mean, and didn't care. He had done plenty of work already, he could do the rest for a change! "Did my face suddenly reminded you to someone you knew?" Lucifer looked again doubtful with himself, and he could not do it any longer. Fuck it. "Yes, your Majesty."
"Really?"
"Yes. Now if you want to talk about it we could come inside..."
Lucifer didn't let him finish his offering for a cup of coffe before he had lunched himself to his arms, wings out and all. It wasn't really that what shut up him quite as effectively as the fact that he was kissing him like his life depended on it. Instinctively he had grabbed the tiny king by the waist.
When they separated for a moment, Lucifer just about as surprised as he was. He seemed to be waiting something out of him, to him being pushed aside or anything.
Alastor simply stared at him back, knowing full well that falling from the side of his own mouth was drool.
But the stillness lasted just one second before Lucifer grabbed him by the front of his vest, forcing him to his height as he walked foward and Alastor backwards inside of his room, until his shin touched the side of his bed and he fell on top of it.
"You like it when I am more active" gasped Lucifer, pushing him all the way until his back was against his covers with one hand. Alastor gulped when he saw the black claws burying themselves on the fabric over his chest, just above his heart. "That I remember."
"Yes" said in a sigh. Tentatively he lifted a hand to wrap it around the wrist of Lucifer and went up, not intending at all to fight the pressure, but just wanting to feel the muscles of his arm. Knowing that those muscles were probably a lot stronger than they were ever when he was human was doing things to his body that he haven't known it could do in ages. His tiny toy maker was decisive and confident in these situations, but this Lucifer could kill him if he really wanted to. They were both as aware of that as of the fact that it wasn't going to happen. The risk of it was still intoxicating. "What else do you remember?"
Lucifer smiled, wide and mischiveous and absolutely beatiful as he quite literally ripped his clothes out of him like some savage beast.
Somewhere inside of his mind Alastor lamented that now he was going to have to go to the tailor again, but that mild voice was quickly drown out when Lucifer came down to kiss and nibble at every portion of skin he had exposed. The sensation of sharp teeth against his neck was something new he didn't knew he was missing until now.
"Alastor."
The way Lucifer would moaned his name had forever being engrained on his brain, worse than any prayer could. But his wings were so big that they created a shadow on top of him, breaking the illusion that they were back on their little town, back on a Earth, passing another afternoon together.
He understood now that this Lucifer was always going to be inherently different. He was never going to be the same toy maker that he had missed for thousands of years. But as long at least this Lucifer was his, he would take it gladly with as many differences as it came.
"I missed you" whispered softly, kissing the side of his head as he ran his fingers through the blonde hair, soft and cool against his skin.
Lucifer let out a small chuckle.
"Me and my stupid hair?"
"Always."
He didn't realize in what moment his pants had received the same treatment as his vest. Suddenly the pressure that was starting to annoy him was gone and Lucifer was touching him, lifting his legs up as he kneeled in front of him.
"Wait, wait" said without breath. The slit tongue of Lucifer was out and something about how long it was making it very difficult to grasp the words he needed out. "I... I haven't done this on this reality, so..."
"Oh, yeah" said Lucifer, as if a new memory had unlocked for him.
Alastor covered his face with an arm when realizing he knew exactly which one. The one where he had to explain to Lucifer that he barely had any sexual attraction towards anyone before meeting him so he never did anything sexual previous to their relationship. Even touching himself was extremely rare, mostly a hazzle that left him with a headache right after and really wasn't worth it. He just lacked whatever impulse made people seek out those sensations on the regular.
That is why he and Lucifer had worked on that area. The initiative of Lucifer was the kindle he actually needed. Without it, he just wouldn't have the drive to keep going without it feeling forced and unnatural.
"Aww, babe, you still get embarassed for that?" Lucifer come up again to take his face between his hands and kiss his lips, far gentler than any of their previous kisses. It made his heart flutter inside his chest all the same. "Honey, it's okay. Everyone works differently and it wouldn't be the same Alastor I knew without that. If anything, it makes it even better now."
"Why?" asked, having an idea of where Lucifer's mind was at but wanting to hear it from him.
It seemed that Lucifer read his mind as he got close to whisper into his ear.
"Because it means that I get to teach you everything all over again. I might even teach you some things that I learned only on this reality. Would you like that, Alastor?" Lucifer accompanied those words with a deep chuckle as his claws buried themselves on his thighs without breaking the skin. Alastor just knew that some mark was going to be left on him after and he couldn't wait to see them again.
He lifted his legs, grabbing onto the almost fully clothed fallen angel closer to him.
--
After they both finally settled down under the cover of his bed, Lucifer spoke up.
"Sorry about your suit. I will buy you a new one."
"I have my own money, thank you" Alastor nuzzled the top of Lucifer on top of his chest, hiding his eye roll. "It's fine. I didn't exactly stop you either."
"No, you didn't, slut" Lucifer of course had to show off the grin on his face. "Did I just unlock a new kink for you?"
He didn't had to be so smug about it.
"Aww, Al, don't pout, I am just playing" Lucifer laughed before kissing his cheek.
"I am not pouting. I don't pout" said Alastor, poutingly.
"Sure you don't" Lucifer's head returned to his chest, the twinkle on his eyes just as loud as his laughter. "You have no idea how weird this is to me. You look so different now to the image I have in my head."
"Yeah, well, I wasn't exactly given an option about it."
"I like it" Lucifer's hand went up the to tug softly at the portion of red hair on his chest and then up to this other ears on top of his head. Those shook and move at the contact involuntarely. Alastor wasn't still sure if he liked the attention on that zone or he could become indifferent to it. "Especially those. They are softer than the rest of your hair. And your tail is the cutest thing I have seen."
Alastor turned his head, not pouting at all. That was a good reason as to why he hide that last trait with his coat.
"You on the other hand, barely changed at all" commented, booping him where a nose had never been.
"You see, that too. It's weird to think of me as a human at all."
"I can imagine" commented Alastor, nodding.
"It's like waking up from a dream. But instead of waking is just another dream and the dream is actually reality. Does it make sense?"
"Yes, I felt the same when my own memories were translated to this body."
Lucifer frowned at that.
"Hey, how long have you had your own memories back?"
"Since my first killing as a human on this reality. I want to say... maybe 200 years ago now? I figure it wouldn't send me to a reality where I wasn't a serial killer. Not a lot of entertainment to be had then."
"Wait, so you have known the entire time you have been in hell? Why didn't you try to touch my hand before?"
Alastor blinked.
"Do you mean to ask me why I didn't try to touch the hand of the king of hell as a simple overlord? The king that is notorious for not making many public appearences and lives in a castle with the best security anyone could ask for because he is, wouldn't you know it, the king? My goodness, you are so right, my lord. I have no idea why I didn't thought of doing that before."
"Yeah, okay, okay, I got it" Lucifer sighed, now he sporting the pout. "You know, you are still an asshole."
"We are in hell, darling. Everyone is an asshole here."
"Touché" Lucifer got back to resting his head against him. "What happens now? I can't really explaint to Charlie that I am fucking her friend on the side because we met in another life. And I don't really want to explain the whole interdimensional eldrich monster that killed us all before. She has so much on her plate right now and I don't really want to add to it."
"Agreed" Alastor also couldn't imagine a scenario where they could make any sense of their situation to other people. Normally that wouldn't mean much to him, but now there were so many other factors to take into account. "If I might propose something, I believe the best course of action right now is to keep our relationship between us."
"We have a relationship?"
Alastor stared a Lucifer with a sarcastic comment at the tip of his tongue, but then saw the face of the fallen angel and realized that was a question out of giddy amazement rather than needing a clarification. Like he couldn't believe how lucky he was. That thought made him feel warm all over.
"Yes, we do" said instead, caressing his cheek. How silly could he be to ever think otherwise? "You thought this was only going to be sex?"
"I didn't want to assume" Lucifer blushed, taking the hand of Alastor on his to kiss his knuckles. His blush now was a soft gold that expanded beyond the red dots on his cheek. Angelic blood was truly fascinating. "So I came here because my daughter invited me over and I come out with a new boyfriend. Best day ever."
"If you say so" Alastor chuckled too, kissing his forehead. Lucifer wrapped his arms around him and lifted himself up to kiss him more deeply. "But it's a secret for now."
"Yeah, I heard you. Until when though?"
"No any time soon, I am afraid. I would personally prefer to not give my enemies any amunition either."
Lucifer snorted. He lifted over his arms on top of Alastor and sat on his stomach, looking down to him.
"Is that a joke? I am Lucifer Motherfucking Morningstar. I can obliterate any sinner barely lifting my pinkie" Alastor had no doubt that he could and that was exactly making him find out things about him that he didn't expect. "Come on, just give me their names and you won't ever have to worry about them ever again."
He still needed a moment to clear his head again before he could speak. This version of Lucifer was just full of surprises. Did he know how beautiful was like this? He did probably. This Lucifer would know.
"For as... lovely of an offer that is" said slowly. "I prefer to deal with them on my own way, darling. Not to brag, but I have done a lot of stuff to get where I am today and I would hate to see it wasted."
"You mean killed a lot of people."
"On top of other things."
"I don't need to know the details" Lucifer fell to his side of the bed again, the murderous intent already gone from him and back to the relaxed state of before. "Are you sure?"
"Positive, darling."
"Fine. But you have the head honcho of hell one text away if you ever need me."
"I still don't have a cellphone, love."
"Still?! How did you managed to survive this long without ever being connected?"
"I talk to people, darling."
"I talk to thousands of people everytime I post on Pentagram! At the same time! And we could text! It would be so fun!"
"And we would have one of those enemies I told you immediately knowing all about it" Just thinking of Vox getting to use that kind of information to undermine his reputation made him sick. He wasn't about to give him that satisfaction. "Before I didn't really like those cellphone, but now less than ever."
"How come now I am the older one here, but you are still the old man in this relationship?"
"I am not changing my mind, dear."
The groan from the fallen angel was muffled against Alastor's shoulder.
"Fine. But I don't have a landline either so what are going to do for communication?"
"You could get a radio. I can always transmit even if I am away from my studio now. The line is secure and you can talk to me back."
"Can I come visit?"
"Of course you can, love. Charlie would be happy to see you around too."
Lucifer didn't jump on happiness at that, which surprised Alastor.
"I don't... know about that. Today was a good day, but I don't really want to just impose on her life like that. She is all grown up, in a good relationship, has a job. A mission even. She probably has better things to do than to deal with her old man."
"She would still like it" pointed out Alastor softly, taking up the hand over his chest and squeezing it once.
He wasn't an expert when it came to daughters and fathers, his own father was a horrible example that nobody should follow, but seeing these two together had reminded him of how much Lucifer still loved his daughter above all else. Maybe love wasn't always enough, but it certainly did a lot and he could clearly see that Lucifer would try as harder as he could.
"I-I will think about it" Lucifer gave him that tiny smile that meant he didn't want to talk about it now, so Alastor didn't push. "But I can still portal here if you would have me."
The thought of coming to his room at the end of a hard day and finding Lucifer casually waiting for him made his heart a bit faster. There was so many books that he fantasized talking to him about for years, so many more music that he wanted to see his reaction to and now he could finally do it.
"You are always welcome, darling" assured, giving him a soft peck on the lips. "I could visit you too, you know. Through the radio. If the king of hell is not too busy for me, that is."
"I can make a space for you" Lucifer giggled, like it was still somehow funny to him being able to do that or having that particular excuse for it. Alastor thought that was still true to his toy maker too.
"Oh, what a benevolent king. What ever could I do to deserve such grace" joked without malice, brushing his hair lazily with his own claw.
"Yes, I am, actually. Not many people appreciate it here. Glad that you can see it" The beaming that iluminated his face was so adorable that Alastor had to laugh too, some of the static of his radio accompanying it. Lucifer gasped. "You still do that?! Aww, cute! I didn't know I missed it so much until now."
"I can do a lot more things than that" Any opportunity to show off his power was a good one. For now he was just happy to put music that seemed to come out of nowhere. "Do you remember this one?"
"Our first date at that jazz club."
There was a lot of new things he wanted to talk to him about it and also ask him. Find out how much of his life was different, what did he liked to do now, everything and anything so he could start knowing this version of him even better. But reminisce through their own shared history was interesting enough for both of them.
Eventually, Lucifer had to get up and dress again. Outside was pitch black, only the city light breaking up the total darkness. Alastor didn't protest at first just because he always enjoyed the way that Lucifer fixed himself, so methodic and careful in every movement until he was the very image of composed. He felt blessed even to being able to witness his little ritual.
"Are you sure you can't just stay, darling?" said at last, when Lucifer was putting his boots.
"If I stay I won't ever want to leave" said Lucifer sincerely, sitting on the bed again.
"Would that be so bad?" Alastor already knew the answer to that one, but could he be blamed for trying at least?
"I still have to fix a meeting with heaven" Lucifer sighed, clearly not really wanting to do that. The way his eyes looked so sad for a moment gave Alastor a lot to think about later. "I still don't have any idea of how I am going to do that. They don't particularly like me up there."
"Obviously they don't have a taste as impeccable as mine then" said, taking the hand of Lucifer over his bed and squeezing it. "I am sure it will be fine. If you can convince humanity to create sin, you can fix a mere meeting. It will be easy for you."
"Oh, I am sure heaven very much appreciate me doing that" Lucifer sighed again, more deeply, before reclining to kiss his head. "I will get the oldest, rustiest, clunkiest radio I can find in hell. Just for you, babe. If I am lucky is going to be powered by a hamster so not electricity can contaminate it."
"Aren't I honoured?" replied with irony, rolling his eyes. "Look in pawn shops" added, not without some pain over finding out that is where the majority of radios found it's place nowadays. People had no respect for the classics. He hoped that attitude was going to change now that at least he was back on air.
Lucifer nodded, searching for his lips for another kiss. Alastor let him find them, barely containing himself to not just bring him to bed again. Not even for sex, just to feel him close, to know that he was really there, to hear his dorky laugh again.
"Hey, I just had an idea" said Lucifer, perking up. "If you are an overlord now, then you like a good deal, don't you?"
"Oh. What do you have in mind?" asked, finding it rather amusing that it was the king of hell himself the one to propose a deal to him with no hesitation, when his own naive daughter had wisely refused to do so.
"Here are the terms. If you ever have to change reality again for whatever reason, you will do whatever you can to always find me and make me remember you. This or any other life that we have together."
"Mmm, tempting" So tempting in fact, that Alastor was sure he was going to do just that anyway. But he was too curious to hear the rest. As Lucifer had said, he just couldn't resist a good deal. "That is my part of the contract. What does His Highness can offer me in return?"
A lovely gold came to color Lucifer's face as he smiled, the sparkles of his eyes softening his looks even more. Alastor had never seen someone finding such pure joy in a transaction like this.
"In exchange for doing that, when the time is right, when our enemies are defeated and my daughter is safe" said, remarking every conditions by getting more closer and lowering his voice until it was barely above a whisper, "and of course, if we both want it, I, Lucifer Morningstar, will marry you. Do we have a deal?"
It was always fascinating to him how a mere look from him could be enough to choke him out, to make him forget that words existed. For a moment Alastor did nothing else but hear the static that he wasn't controlling just around him, going up in volumen with the almost painful beat on his chest.
"Yes" was the only thing he could force out of his lips, thankfully remembering that deals needed clear consent.
"Then it's done" Lucifer lower the whole way to join their lips.
Alastor had closed his eyes at first, but opened them up again when he felt the familiar grasp over his sould. Under the eyelids of Lucifer he could see his golden magic shine through, just like he knew his own had to be glowing in green. Their magic combined surrounded them, mixing together, and finally came back to their bodies with a piece of each other.
Was this one of his bullshit fallen angel powers?
"We didn't shake hands."
"You can actually make deals with any contact that is freely given and mutual" explained Lucifer with a wink. "But people don't tend to realize that. For the majority of cases, a handshake is the most neutral and safest option. I just wanted to make ours something different."
"Interesting."
Alastor saved that tidbit of information for later on the back of his mind. He was so intrigued by the fact that there was still things to learn about the topic, that it took him a second to catch on the fact that they had technically just gotten engaged.
They had only talked about marriage once before, more than 200 years ago, in another life.
This was the first day they saw each other since then.
And he had said yes without even thinking.
Had he lost his entire mind?
Lucifer seemed pleased to see the realization reaching his face and chuckled, kissing his cheek.
"Now I really have to go. But I will be hearing you later" promised the king, and he lifted to leave, opening a new portal just behind him.
Before he realized that is what he was doing, Alastor reached for his wrist. The tiny king tilted his head and Alastor suddenly knew perfectly why he had done that.
"I love you."
He didn't want to wait another disaster in order to say it. The words could still feel somewhat weird on his mouth, but the way that Lucifer's whole body relaxed made it worth it.
"I love you too."
One last kiss and then Lucifer was gone. But at least he would have their music until the next encounter.

Tumblr media
Synopsis | Black Noir encounters you by chance during patrol one day. The two of you converse as they learn they have so much in common. You then give Noir a surprising offer he can't refuse.

---
I never felt nothing in the world like this before
Now I'm missing you, and I'm wishing you would come back through my door
Ooh-ooh
Why did you have to go? (Go)
You could have let me know (know)
So now, I'm all alone (ooh-ooh)
- Wait for you by Elliot Yamin
---
It was a lonely afternoon and you were taking a like-minded stroll to calm your mind after a gruelling day. You had been working at home, filing out paperworks and listening to mad voices screech down the telephone like demons, demanding their rent to be paid. Your job put you under a lot of stress as incidents of collateral damage were increasingly high due to The Seven's heroic efforts. The one thing that could take her mind off things was the warm memory of being in Black Noir's company. It had been two weeks since you last saw him, his kind gesture of giving you breakfast in bed was still a timeless memory that played in your head like a movie you had loved all your life.
It was hard to keep track of Noir these days, he was either carrying out missions for Vought or attending civil meetings with his fellow supes. You couldn't stop thinking about him, the mere mention of his name making your heart swirl. He treated you with so much kindness and sincerity and made sure you were safe. He made whatever time he could to visit you and he would always bring you gifts to keep you content. The last time you saw him, he gave you a giant teddy bear carrying a red heart in its colossal cuddly arms. He showered you with notes of praise and words, even sending letters to you from time to time to keep tabs with you on how your day was going. You felt joy swell through your heart as you heard about his many adventures, his exploits in the superhero world and of course how much he missed you. They were always short and sweet, but they conveyed so much of his humanity. Every night, you would smuggle into the teddy bear and imagine you were holding Noir in a quiet embrace, the world going quiet around the two of you. You just wished you could see him again, so he could take away the emptiness inside of you.
You had known this park all too well, it was significant for hosting many Homelander pep rallies. You used to walk your dog around here, it was the very place where he lost his life to a stray bullet. His name was Felix and he was a small bichon frise, a ball of energy who used to bring you nothing but comfort when you were getting adjusted to city life. His death came as a crushing blow to you, as the first person who comforted you and showed sympathy for your loss was Black Noir, who had just apprehended the gunman with lethality. At that moment, all of the intimidation and stoicism he presented in battle was instead replaced by a genuine concern and overwhelming amount of guilt. He helped you bury Felix and hugged you tightly, trying so desperately to ease your pain. On that day, Noir vowed to keep you safe and watched over you as he didn't want someone like you to be lonesome. The grief was unnerving, you would always have dreams of that day, having to watch over and over as your precious Felix was taken from you. But the one thing that kept you going amid all of that heartache, was Black Noir's spirit. You always felt his presence watching over you and it brought you more security and tranquility. You would do anything to savour in his light again.
You walked further into the park's majestic canopy when you laid eyes on something you never expected, something your heart wasn't ready for. You don't know if your mind was playing tricks on you but Black Noir was standing right there, observing the beautiful nature around him. He looked alone, like a deer staring into headlights. You thought he may have been on a secret mission of some sort as he appeared as quiet and stoic as usual. Some citizens had noticed him, yelling his name like spectors at the super bowl. Your heart was telling you to approach him, to catch up with him after weeks apart. Maybe he was always destined to meet you here.
"Noir!" You yelled, running towards him with open arms as Noir stopped in his tracks, staring at you with a look that could only be described as adoration. You couldn't tell by his mask but he seemed like a lost puppy everytime his eyes yours. There may have been fans pestering him, but you were the only one Noir was willing to talk to. "Hey, it's good to see you. It's been weeks." You couldn't help but smile in his presence, overjoyed to see your masked suitor once again. Noir waved at you like a child at a baseball game, radiating nothing but warmth as you came by. He took his notepad and began to write.
It's good to see you too
"How are you, it feels like I haven't seen you for god knows how long." You said, happy to catch up with the masked supe. Black Noir chose to write his response rather than talk about it out loud. He wasn't the type to use words and you respected that.
Out with The Seven. Doing missions.
He flipped a page, beginning to scribble neatly. He was writing more messages.
How are you?
"I'm just taking each day in stride, you know" You said, assuring him that you were in a good place now. The two began to stroll around the park, admiring the warm sun and the beauty the park had to offer. You must of been talking too much, conversing about the rest of the day with him as he just admired your face longingly, glad to see it captured by the afternoon light.
"So do you like coming here?" You asked, your voice gentle and considerate. Noir bobbed his head to the question.
I come here to patrol, but I'm too busy to go to the park. I wish I could come here more.
"I guess being a superhero comes with its perks, right."
Noir nodded in agreement, the two of you walking in sync like a married couple. You could see the way he admired the park, of how he longed to be normal, to be happy. He never got to do any of these things because of his obligations to The Seven. Maybe one day with you could change that.
"Hey, there is a nice bench over there by the lake. Since you don't come here a lot, I thought I could give you a view to look at." You said as Noir's face lit up, wanting to take some time to rest.
"I would love that ♡"  he wrote, a little heart drawing at the end of his words as he cared about you so much.
The two of you sat at the park bench, staring at the flowing river as the sun shone down on them. There were citizens taking a stroll, kids playing ball or walking their dogs. There was swans swimming in the lake, being fed breadcrumbs by a elderly couple, walking hand in hand. They reminded you so much of you and Noir, of how their bond could transcend into something more. You was falling more in love with the ninja hero and couldn't stop thinking about him. He was the remedy that would heal your empty heart.
Noir began to write on his notepad, passing on messages to you as a way of formal communication, his devotion to you souring in every action he does.
Are you doing okay?
You let out a cold breath of shuddering air before you spoke, the pain of losing Felix still haunting you. You would give anything to see her beloved dog again, anything.
I'm getting better. It's just hard with him not being here. Life without Felix....." You could feel a lump form in your throat, your tear ducts becoming wet. You watched as citizens walked their dogs and played fetch with them, a living reminder of what she'd lost. "It sucks..." Noir just sat there, hand to his heart as he didn't like to see you overcome with such sorrow. You may have sat a distance apart but your eyes still met, unable to look away from their barred souls.
I'm sorry about Felix. I wished I could have saved him.
"You keep apologising, but it isn't your fault. It was that son of a bitch who thought shooting a dog would bring him satisfaction. I know it didn't...but..." You could feel the anger seethe through you, trying your best not to sound bitter towards Noir. You had sat there, crying over Felix's dead body as he stabbed the gunman to death.
"You know that feeling you get when you feel empty and you try so hard to repair that hole inside you?"
Yes. All the time.
Noir's honesty came as a punch to the gut. You never would have known someone concealed by a mask would be so lonely inside. Noir has always hid himself from the world, no one knew what was thinking or if he had a heart. But here he was, being sincere to you about his struggles and the pain he endured through his long career.
"I just feel lonely all the time. Being with you....knowing that you are watching over me, I just know there's someone out there and that's you Noir..."
Noir looked at you for a moment, almost frozen in time as he was taken aback by your tender confession. He took his notepad and began to write a message.
I felt alone once. No one ever cared for me. I hid my face behind a mask I hated. But meeting you...you make me feel better about myself.
You were touched by his statement, hit with the realisation that you and Noir had so much in common. Butterflies entered your stomach at the thought of Noir being just like you, of having to deal with the very loneliness that turned your heart into a void. He understood you better than most. He would protect until the ends of the earth.
You don't know what feeling took over you that moment, but you pulled Noir into a hug, finding safety and comfort in his embrace.
"Thank you Noir!" You exclaimed happily. 
Black Noir didn't expect such sincerity from you, stiff as a board as he wasn't sure how to show you comfort. He eventually fell into your touch, patting you in the back as a way of showing affection. He cared about with every fibre of being he had, even if he was the silent type. You could see that he was forever devoted away from you.
You eventually broke free from the hug, sitting beside each other and offering comfort. The slience between the two was palpable, carrying an unspoken connection as you were lost in your own thoughts. You wondered what your life would be like if Noir filled that hole inside you, of what a life being under his watchful eye would be like. Being parted from him those two weeks was difficult, you couldn't relive those days again. You wanted to be at his side from this moment forward.
"Noir, I've been thinking....would you like to move in with me. I need someone in my life and that person is you."
Noir was taken aback at first by that question, staring into your eyes with nothing but generosity and suprise. He nodded his head with a diligent yes and began to write on his notepad. You sat there curiously, wondering what he'd say. You hoped it was something meaningful.
Yes. I will do anything for you. I will stay with you until your loneliness goes away.
You smiled earnestly, filled with joy to see Noir accept your proposal. You could see the happiness radiating from him, the way he lit up when he gazed into your eyes, the childlike innocence he showed when you offered him a place to stay with her, you meant the world to him and he didn't want to leave you cast astray. A life with Noir was bound to be the one thing that would make your life even brighter...
