𝐈𝐍𝐓𝐑𝐎𝐃𝐔𝐂𝐈𝐍𝐆… 𝐌𝐘 𝐎𝐍𝐄 𝐏𝐈𝐄𝐂𝐄 𝐎𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐈𝐍𝐀𝐋 𝐂𝐇𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐂𝐓𝐄𝐑, 𝐀𝐃𝐀𝐂𝐇𝐈 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐑
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
❝ Adachi Star held no love for pirates, but she did not hate them either - rather, she feared them, which was certainly unexpected in someone who had essentially been raised on the open water. Her father, a pirate captain in his youth who had given up the life upon meeting her mother and having a child, had been only too eager to take to East Blue once again after his wife had died from illness, taking his young daughter with him, and as such some of Star’s earliest memories had taken place on her father’s ship, learning how to sail and being snuck the best bits of meals by the crew’s chef.
To many, it would have seemed like an idyllic childhood, going on adventures and spending every day surrounded by the beautiful ocean… but it was not nearly as lovely as it seemed. Like many other pirates, Star’s father was obsessed with finding the legendary One Piece, Gold Roger’s infamous treasure that would grant the mantle of King of the Pirates to whomever found it - but Adachi Storm, leader of the Thundercloud Pirates, took his mission one step further. Every action he took was another step towards what he saw as finding the One Piece and becoming who he was truly supposed to be - including tricking his daughter into eating a Devil Fruit when she was only ten years old, forcing unto her a great and terrible power for the purpose of creating his own little weapon against other pirates.
Granted the powers of the hokori hokori no mi - the ability to make any non-living thing crumble to dust, with nothing more than a solid touch and a moment of focus - Star had at first been thrilled with her new skill, wanting desperately to please her father and going through all the training to strengthen her power that he wanted her to. But when an action Storm forced her to take during a battle with another pirate crew resulted in almost that entire crew dead, Star had realized just how much the search for the One Piece had overtaken her father, how truly obsessed he had become and the creature, the monster he had made his daughter into as a result… and rather than trying to help him, to get through to him and make him realize just how much he was hurting those around him, she had run, just a scared thirteen-year-old unable to face the reality of what she had done or the fear that had crept into the eyes of her father’s crew when they looked at her.
For years now, Star has been running; going from village to village, never staying in one place for long, seeking out the best fighters around and getting lessons from them so that she can learn different ways to be destructive without using her terrible ability, and only using her power when absolutely necessary, too afraid of what could happen if she gave in to using it again. But after getting involved in a pub fight in Shells Town and the escape from the local Marine base that follows, she finds herself stepping onto a pirate ship once again (if one could even call it that), along with a dry-witted thief, a surly swordsman who might be the most annoying person Star has ever met, and an overly energetic boy with stretchy Devil Fruit powers who is determined to become King of the Pirates in a way that reminds Star uncomfortably, terribly, of her father.
As the motley crew of four first set out on their journey, each with their own secrets and intentions that they don’t plan on telling the others, Star’s only goal is to keep Luffy from going down the same obsessive path as her father, and hopefully knock Zoro down a few pegs while she’s at it. But as their little so-called “crew” delves into further adventures and truly unexpected relationships begin to form, she starts to find that maybe, perhaps, taking to the seas again will not be as awful as she feared… and that maybe, if this crazy newfound family cares about her as much as she cares about them, perhaps she’s not as much of a monster as she’s been thinking since she was only a child. ❞

Zutara Castaway fic!!
“It doesn’t matter,” Katara said. “We win in the end. We have to. And you have to live through it.”
“Katara,” Zuko sighed. “Nothing is guaranteed.”
“Why do you always have to be such a pessimist?” Katara demanded. “You were so sure we were going to die on that raft, remember? We got through that. We’ll get through this.”
“Katara, I’m just saying that-“
“No!” Katara reached up and unfastened her necklace. Before Zuko could ask what she was doing, she pressed it into his hand.
“What-?”
“There, now you have to come back,” Katara said stubbornly. “If I don’t get my mother’s necklace back, I’ll make you pay.” Zuko froze, half ready to give the pendant back, a protest already on his lips. But there was something fervent in Katara’s eyes that made him stop. Then he almost smiled.
“You mule-ox of a woman,” he scoffed. “Fine, I’ll keep it safe. But you have to do something for me, too.” Katara hesitated for a moment.
“What is it?” she asked. Zuko reached for his waist and unfastened the sheath to his dagger.
“Hang on to this for me,” he said. Katara’s hands clasped around the handle of the dagger, and she nodded once, her jaw set determinedly.
“I will.”

Can you please tell us more about 🦆 fictional!matty festival season?
My brain would like to rot as well!
LOL yessss mutual brain rot!
It starts off not that bad - we're currently in the first week of April in the Ducklings fic timeline (Fictional!Matty's 28th birthday is coming up fast!) and thus festival season is starting. He's not really showing yet, and okay yes, he feels awful, but he felt pretty awful during festival season last year too when he was using heavily so like he's fine Fictional!Jamie, they committed to the shows they're not backing out now!
BUT THEN suddenly they've entered June and it's really hot and even though he's supposed to be feeling better the second trimester he's just really not? And he doesn't want the fans to know yet, if he had his way NO ONE would know but apparently everyone in his inner circle has pieced it together which is BS because he still hasn't gotten to tell anyone himself. He's also really showing now which is not ideal for performing on stage in DAY LIGHT where people can see him CLEARLY because they're not big enough yet to be the headliners. He finds the overalls at a thrift shop and they become his summer festival look. They're extremely comfortable, and with the tank top, they're breathable, and he thinks he looks cute instead of like he's drowning in fabric like some of his other camouflage outfit attempts.
However, music festivals aren't very fun when you're sober, or pregnant and there is also a lot of temptation so poor Fictional!Matty is just really ready for it to be over. He wants to go back to London and hole up in the new house he panic bought and hardly has any furniture for. Fictional!Ross said he was nesting and Fictional!Matty nearly stabbed him with a fork so he never said it again.
But yeah, he looks super cute in overalls, out of all my fictional!Matties, Ducklings Fictional!Matty is the one wearing overalls and he loves them very much. A 10/10 purchase. He locks himself in the bathroom crying the day he realizes they don't fit anymore but is coaxed out by the very pretty, very soft and flow-y floral midi skirt that Fictional!George picked up for him.
Thank you so MUCH for sending me this ask and brain rotting with me! Keep the brain rot coming its talk shop Tuesday this is what it's for!! I hope you continue to enjoy Make Way for Ducklings and my other fics and I thank you very much for the continued support! I hope you are having a wonderful Tuesday and a great rest of your week!
❤️Ally

okay, so, I have had my suspicions about this for a while, but The Great Gatsby is  47,094 words. And that’s whatever, it’s a short book, and easy read and has a weird historical explanation as to why it’s popular now even though it wasn’t when it was originally published. 
My point is, that it’s still a book. 
As of right now, my lighting analysis/analysis of season four is 36,491 words.
By the end of this analysis, I will probably go over the word count of the Great Gatsby. 
And that is absolutely insane. That is a (short) novels worth of writing.

“Easy, Kix.”
He lets out of sharp breath, feeling the box in his grip slip, and it drops to the floor with a clang. He winces.
“Damn.”
Kix startles a bit when a hand lands on his shoulder. “Not bad.” General Skywalker- no, Knight Skywalker, he’d asked to be a little more informal here- says, grinning wide and bright. “I’ve definitely seen worse, from people who’ve not recently had their Galaxy thrown about, so nice job.”
--
Force Sensitively isn’t much easier to deal with off the battlefield either, especially newly-discovered Force Sensitivity. But Kix is coping.
Until he isn’t.
-x-
I have written a fic! This is Coping, the second part of a rather large AU that's I'm working on at the moment. It's been in the works for a while, so hopefully it's all good!

cold sweat [kim mingyu x fem!oc]
Tumblr media
warnings: fwb, sexual tension, size kink, creampie, manhandling, daddy kink, overstimulation, mingyu is really touchy, dom!mingyu, sub!reader, fingering, unprotected sex , porn with little plot , body worship, pussy-eating, car sex , a bit of a self-indulgent fic
you and mingyu have been friends since your senior year of high school. the two of you were as thick as thieves, it didn’t matter if there was the risk of being separated in college— you two would always find each other during holidays and summer breaks in your hometown. but there was just one problem: you were falling hard and fast for the one and only kim mingyu. your mingyu who’s six feet and two inches tall of pure happiness and sweet disposition, the one who’d drop everything for you whenever you’re down, the person who was always cheering you on, and not to mention how handsome he is with his tan skin and prominently defined arms with his toned back as wide as the pacific ocean and those toned abs— but god, his smile and his contagious laugh that you could just constantly put on repeat no matter what time of day it is has you secretly pining away for your best friend. 
being physically intimate with him was not an uncharted territory  for the two of you, it just sort of happened one time when he came home drunk to your place and stumbled on your bed falling into a deep slumber as he cuddled you close in his hazy state. but you two never really brought up that night ever again, it did not matter if you two were sober or not, one of you would always offer cuddles and maybe a few stolen kisses in between especially when the both of you were stressed over schoolwork. it didn’t take that long for you to notice that mingyu was initiating them more often but repressed the thought that he could actually like you because you were just silly old you— always the best friend, never the girlfriend. but, little did you know, he fell first for you. of course he’d never admit that for the sake of protecting the friendship.
[10:00PM]
it was already late at night and you couldn’t stop tossing and turning in your bed so you decided to get up and shower to get ready for the 24/7 gym just near your apartment complex. after getting your things prepared, you decided to ring up mingyu to join you on your workout—or as he calls it, “gymscapade” for when you both get so stressed you need to work out a sweat. he picks up after two rings, voice clearly woken up from a deep slumber. “hey, what’s up?” he replies, “would you wanna go workout with me right now?” you ask, hoping he’s not too lazy in the confines of his bed on the other line.  “yeah, just let me get ready in a bit. call you soon when i’m there.” he says with a yawn. “okay, just meet me at the gym near my place just so i can get a good warmup.” you say as the both of you exchange your goodbyes. 
you make it to the gym not long after and decided to unzip your jacket halfway through your warmup. you were actually the only one in the gym since it was already quite late. while working up a sweat on the lat pulldown machine, you saw mingyu from the corner of your eye entering wearing  grey sweatpants and a compression tank top. he starts to warm up for a bit as you went to where he was, “what are you going to do today?” he asked, stretching out his arms. “i’ll just do a few upper and lower body workouts, maybe squeeze in some lifting too,” you say, as you take a sip from your water bottle. it never really struck you how handsome mingyu was until as of late, it just wasn’t in the books for the two of you to actually get together or even fuck at the very least but knowing how tiny and short you were compared to his huge, tall frame made you run a bit hot and wet down there. 
“care to spot me while i do bench presses?” he says as he takes off the dumbbells from the racks. you could barely lift what he pressed, it’s almost all-consuming seeing mingyu lay on the bench while you looked down at him as he lifted and praising him every time he’d do it. this position was not good for your health, all you could ever think about was him eating you out whenever he would moan out of exertion. you still had a few sets on the lat pulldown machine to go and asked him to spot you, to help you with your form since he was going to the gym longer than you have been. 
mingyu couldn’t stop looking at you. your hair up in a messy ponytail, wearing a cute workout set with just a pastel pink sports bra with tight-fitting compression shorts of the same color. you were so oblivious yet fucking obvious about how bad you wanted your friend to fuck you and he saw right through it. the way your skin would suddenly feel warm under his touch or how you’d hide the hitches in your breath whenever he was too close to you while he observes your workouts. as you were doing your set, he was behind you closing the gap between you two as he made sure you were feeling the burn in all the targeted muscles. as he lowered down to your level on the seat, your back brushed against his crotch and felt something huge and hard. “good girl, just one more and you’re done.” he whispered lowly in your ear as you exhaled when you let go of the bar in an upwards motion. 
as the two of you were helping each other finish workouts, he couldn’t help but gaze into your eyes with a hidden intent and leaned in for a kiss which made you set your dumbbells down on the floor with a loud thud booming through the room. it took you aback and you pulled away from the kiss, mingyu was shocked at your action and stared at you with wide eyes. “i’m sorry i couldn’t help it ever since that night i never stopped thinking about you.” he says, as you pulled him in closer and kissed him harder as your tongues became entangled. “jump,” he whispers as he starts to carry you. fuck, it was really hot seeing him take the lead and it made you weaker for him than ever before. he puts you down before you could even leave hickeys on his neck, “y/n, i’m not going to fuck you here, let me be a gentleman and take you back to my place,” he says with a mischievous smile, lips red and swollen from the steamy makeup session. 
both of you grabbed your things and went inside his car, the tension was hot and heavy as his hand were rubbing your thigh further riling you up while he drove through the quiet streets of the city with you weak and submissive under his touch.    it was something that set your insides on fire— seeing mingyu’s hand veins pop out from gripping the steering wheel hard resisting himself from pulling over and fucking you in the nearest empty parking lot he could find. as soon as the stoplight turned red, he looked over at you with a menacing smirk. “god, you just look so pretty and desperate for me, huh?”
you couldn’t help but be more turned on as you felt your core get wetter just because of his words and before you knew it, he was taking off your seatbelt for you and leaning in for a desperate kiss with his tongue exploring your mouth as if he had been waiting for this moment. “go in the backseat, now” he said in between breaths while still cupping your face, his usual kind and bright eyes, now filled with lust and a dominating gaze desperately telling you how bad he wanted this. as you made your way into the back, he followed suit and did not waste time taking off your bra showing off your huge boobs, its buds already hardened from the cold air. he smirked as you whined at how he took your nipples between his fingers and played with them, mingyu then sat you on his lap and felt his manhood through his sweatpants as you were just only left in your tight shorts that were clearly thin. “princess, you look so pretty like this. all naked and wet for daddy, huh?” he whispered as you began to grind your clothed pussy on his hard dick, just more wanting more from him. craving mingyu like he was the kind of drug you needed, so intoxicating yet so worth the risk. 
with lust-filled eyes, mingyu looked up at you and pulled you in for a rough kiss, tongues tied with one another. as he pulled away once more, he started to leave love bites all over your neck and chest not giving a fuck who sees it— all he knows is that you're his by day's end. his rough hands began to roam your body and unclasped your bra skillfully letting your huge tits be free. his mouth immediately latched onto your tit while his fingers began to rub the nipple in between the other one.
"fuck, daddy please i wanna feel you inside," you moaned. he just smirked as he began to flip you onto the backseat so he'd be on top of you. "patience, angel, good girls get to cum." he whispers through gritted teeth, grinding his hard cock on your pussy, still clothed yet the thong you wore hardly doing anything to cover the wetness. as mingyu goes down on you to take off your underwear, he leaves kisses on your stomach and hips, "god, you look so gorgeous fucked out for me, why didn't we fuck sooner?" he moans in between kisses. he inserts two of his fingers inside your dripping pussy, "so fucking tight for me, yeah, can't wait for my dick to be inside hm?"  he says as you could  just lose all sense of rationality with how good he is with his fingers. he then lowers his head down in between your thighs and eats you out, licking your clit as if he's a starved man. 
"daddy, please i'm so fucking close," you whine, tears of pleasure filling your eyes. mingyu proceeds to insert three of his fingers and fucked you faster with it, his long and thick digits began to curl inside, "you like being a slut for me yeah? who fucking owns you?" he moans, "you daddy, please.. gyu.. .more," you say as he coaxes you into your first orgasm. he takes out his fingers, your cum coating his fingers as he proudly licks and sucks them off with pride with a devilish smirk. "you taste so sweet, angel... " he says as you begin to claw at the waistband of his  sweatpants, desperate to feel his dick inside you. he smirks at how helpless you look and removes his bottoms along with his boxers, his hard, long dick standing in its full glory slapping against his chiseled abs,  as its girth makes you wonder how it could fit inside of you.
"will it fit, gyu?" you ask in a small voice. "oh, we'll make it fit, princess, i've prepped you enough yeah?" he begins to jack off his dick preparing to put it inside. "fuck, you look so small for me, all for me..so pretty spread out like this," he moans as he teases the tip of his dick in between your folds and slowly thrusts it inside of you. "fuck...my god gyu so fucking good, please...move," you whine as he begins to slowly move inside of you taking his sweet time to be inside of you. god knows how fucking long he waited to have you like this, you just looked so angelic and slutty under him, it took everything in him to not fill you to the brim with his cum right there. his hands tightly gripped your waist as he pounded into you faster, feeling how big he is inside, hitting the tip of your cervix. you put your arms around the nape of his neck as you pull him in for a passionate kiss, hands roaming around his toned upper back leaving scratches on it as your nails dig into its broad surface. 
you feel his thrusts get faster and deeper as he began to rub your clit helping you to also reach your second orgasm, "i'm fucking close baby, " he moans as his thrusts get sloppier. "cum..inside..me..it's okay,'m on the pill daddy"you whine out as you two feel each other's release, his cum mixed with yours dripping down your thighs. mingyu pulled out as he reached into the glovebox compartment for a box of tissue helping you clean up. "fuck...what just happened?" he asks, giggling. "we fucked," you laugh as he pulls you closer to him in the tight space with the steam-filled windows from the sex earlier. "so...i like you..a fucking lot," he starts as he begins to intertwine his fingers with yours and kisses your forehead, "yeah, i do too gyu," you smile as you pull him in closer for another kiss, this time full of love and gentleness. "let's go home and finish what we started, yeah?" he says while you two begin to get dressed up and drive back to his place for the night.

I know this isn’t how I normally introduce OCs to you guys, but I simply could not resist, so: meet Adachi Star, my new One Piece OC!! She has a traumatic past, a pretty dangerous Devil Fruit power, and also a relationship with Zoro that starts out with mutual annoyance and ends with mutual love, though that change does very little to reduce how much they roll their eyes at each other.
I’m going to make a more proper intro post in my usual format soon, probably once I’m actually finished the show, but I look forward to sharing more about her with you guys!!

Uncharted Waters: The Escape
Tumblr media
The second time lost at sea was far more draining than the first. The sun had been just as intense, but the cold waters they’d set adrift in kept the temperature relatively comfortable during the day. Now, the sun and warmer waters combined to make their journey nearly untenable. During the worst heat of the day, moisture also rose from the warm waters below adding humidity to the list of discomforts they faced. Sweat began pouring off Katara minutes into her working. She bent the stinging moisture from her brow and tossed it aside into the sea, but it hardly seemed to help. Zuko began drinking less of his water ration, insisting Katara needed it more. She protested vocally that Zuko needed to be in shape as much as she, reminding him that they had agreed back on the island that he shouldn’t sacrifice his health for hers. Then she collapsed from exhaustion on the third day on the water. Zuko had a clear enough head to use seawater to revive her instead of their precious supply. Then, at his urging, Katara had drunk a third of that day’s ration. They were running low, neither of them acknowledged, as Katara rested. Katara scanned the sky anxiously. There wasn’t a cloud to be seen.
While Katara steered the boat, Zuko kept his eyes peeled for any other passing ships. If nothing else, he figured spotting other vessels would tell them that they were on the right path, which after so many days on the water, he was no longer certain of. On a ship with sails, or with a motor, they would have reached land in a few hours at most from where they’d escaped the pirates, but even in their little dinghy, he was sure they should have at least seen land by then. He tried not to notice how much slower Katara’s bending was getting, but he focused even harder. No way he would let this be the end of them. To escape dying lost at sea once only to fall to the same fate now. He wasn’t worried for himself. The chances were high that there was no one waiting for him to return, but Katara and her family didn’t deserve this. Even if their corpses were eventually found and in enough time for them to still be identifiable, Katara’s family would almost certainly never learn of her fate. If he had any power in the situation at all, that wouldn’t happen to her. In the meantime, he could ignore the way his tongue stuck to the roof of his mouth, and his headache wasn’t the worst pain he’d ever experienced.

Empty Promises (Tommy X Wife Reader) One-shot
Tumblr media
Summary: Tommy can be a cruel man sometimes, but YN still loves him.
Word count: 746
Warnings: Nothing really.
A/N: This is my first fic in a long long time. It's short but hopefully sweet.
Please feel free to send me a message/comment/ask, I would love to know what you think.
If you like this, please feel free to visit my blog and take a look around! You can find my masterlist in my bio.
Tumblr media
“Tommy, you promised”. Standing at the empty desk of his Arrow House study, you held the telephone receiver to your ear staring at your reflection in the window. It was so dark outside that the pane of glass worked perfectly as a mirror. You looked good. Really good. Beautiful even. Exhaling silently, your eyes dropped to the rug beneath your favourite pair of heels. It felt like forever since you had a reason to put on a beautiful dress and powder your nose. And after countless empty promises from Tommy to get home early and take you out, you thought that tonight he was finally going to come through. No less than an hour ago he called to say he was a minute from leaving the office, and now… well, he was still in that very same office telling you that something had come up and not to expect him home before midnight.
The familiar click of Tommy’s tongue travelled down the telephone line to your ear, “I’m sorry YN, I need to close this deal tonight. It shouldn’t be taking this long… but there was a problem with the contract… it’s getting amended right now.”
Frustrated, you shook your head as if he was standing right in front of you, sure he could hear the shortness in your voice, but you were unable to bite your tongue. “Jees Tommy, I’m all dressed up with nowhere to go… Why couldn’t you let me know an hour ago?” Giving him no chance to reply, you huffed, throwing a hand in the direction of the sitting room, “And what about Polly… she’s already here to mind the kids.”
Clearing his throat, you could swear Tommy’s voice just broke a little. Was he amused by your frustration? “Don’t worry about Polly, she’ll use any excuse to see the children… she won’t care.”
Letting slip an annoyed grumble, you sank into the chair beside you. Staring into the darkness outside your frustration began to fade as disappointment took hold, your grumble finishing with a defeated sigh, “I just wish… I wish… I don’t even know anymore… I miss you, Tommy. I just want you to myself… for one night.” That was the moment you noticed headlights turn in at the top of the driveway. Sitting upright, you focused on the car, but it wasn’t familiar. “Who’s that. Tommy, were you expecting anyone tonight?”
Tommy asked, “What about two nights, eh?”
Confused, you stood up and walked around the desk to the window, scrutinising the car as it made its way up the driveway, “What do you mean?... Are you expecting someone?”
“What about two nights,” Tommy repeated.
The car rolled to a stop out the front of the house, leaving you even more confused. It was a brand-new Rolls-Royce limousine, complete with its very own chauffeur. Suspicion crept upon your voice as you spoke, “What are you talking about, Tommy. What do you mean, two nights?”
A soft chuckle sounded from the other end of the telephone, his voice now clearly amused, “What I mean is, no business, no races, no horses… nothing. Just you and me for the whole weekend to do whatever the hell we want.”
You fell silent a moment, unsure what was happening. This was completely uncharted waters; Tommy had never done anything like this before. You could hardly string a sentence together, “What? Whatever do you… I don’t… What’s going on?”
Mumbling something about you being adorable when you're frustrated and confused, Tommy chuckled again, before elaborating. “See that man out the window, that’s George, your chauffeur. He’s going to collect a suitcase in the foyer that Polly has packed for you and bring you to me.” Giving you a moment to collect your thoughts, he waited before clearing his throat, “So why don’t you go upstairs and kiss the children goodnight for me and tell them we’ll be home in a couple of days.”
Shaking your head, you couldn’t contain the joy in your voice, “You’re such an ass, Tommy. Why couldn’t you just tell me, instead of torturing me like that?”
Tommy laughed audibly, “I’ll tell you what. Why don’t you hurry up and get your own ass down here and you can punish me in any way you want.”
With a devilish voice, you sighed, “Oh Tommy, my love. Don’t you worry about that… I’ve got the whole car ride there to decide… and believe me, I already have a few ideas.”

peace - m. murdock
Tumblr media
a/n: hi guys! missed you. desperately wanted to write more hoh!reader, so i did it. this can be read on it's own, OR it can be read as a part two to my fic, 'the lakes', which you can read here! feedback always appreciated! <3 warnings: so much damn fluff, suggestive behaviors, like literally tooth rotting fluff! mentions of some abelism but nothing actually happens it's just sort of mentioned. matt hates buffalo chicken pizza, the cold hurts readers ears, also a lot of kissin' and tinnitus because of course there is. word count: 3.0k summary: tinnitus, buffalo chicken pizza, and objections. what more can you ask for from matt murdock? paring: matt murdock x hoh!reader now playing: peace - taylor swift "the devils in the details/but you got a friend in me/would be enough if i could never give you peace?"
There are things that no one teaches you about dating.  
There are things that no one teaches you about dating Matt Murdock, a blind man.
There are things that no one teaches you about dating Matt Murdock, a blind man, who has super senses and is also a vigilante.
There are things that no one teaches you about dating Matt Murdock, a blind man, who has super senses and is also a vigilante… while also being deaf.
As you lost your hearing, you knew dating would be difficult. That was never a secret. Your first girlfriend after you started wearing hearing aids once hid them from you as a punishment after an argument. Safe to say that relationship didn’t last long.
One time, you went on a date with a guy who asked in the middle of your dinner, ‘Could you please take off your headphones? It’s cool that they’re Bluetooth but it’s really rude.’ You did not make it to dessert.
Then there was the time that your ex-boyfriend thought you were talking about him in ASL to your mom in front of him. You broke up with him soon after.
And Matt has experienced his fair share of ableism in dating too—Women who thought they could get away with stealing from him because he was blind, or that thought that he just had to have a service dog, and he’d be so cute with one.
So, when you started dating each other, things were obviously different. You weren’t sure how, but the idea of dating another person with a disability never occurred to you. Maybe it was because of how often you found people playing oppression Olympics, a classic game of ‘who has it worse?’ a game you had no interest in playing.
And the struggles you and Matt have in your relationship are never ones represented in rom-coms or in romantic novels. Dating any blind man would have been hardly represented but Matt, with his charm and heightened senses, was completely uncharted waters. And yet, you dive in headfirst.
One of the most romantic things Matt does for you within the first six months of your relationship happens on a cold February day. Winter in New York isn’t over until at least March, so you walk home from work, arm in arm. You decide to stop in for Thai food but decide to stand outside in favor of in the crowded restaurant where Matt would be hearing too many things and you wouldn’t be hearing nearly enough.
But he notices, as he often does, how you squirm in discomfort, waiting for time to pass. Though you do not show it in your face, he hears it in the way you breath deeply to try and relax through whatever it is that’s bothering you. He notices the grip on his arm tightening, even just a bit.
“What’s wrong, bee?” You’re never getting over your fondness for the nickname. But you stay quiet for a second, because you know he can tell if you’re lying.
“My ears hurt.” You hate saying it, because you feel like it’s all you do—yap about your ears and how much they hurt. They hurt from talking on the phone and holding it up to your ear for so long. They hurt from being in loud environments like parties and bars. But dear god, do they hurt right now. And you know exactly why.
“Oh, is it too loud? We could move to a different spot,” he says softly but you shake your head.
“Uh.. No. It’s cold. The cold is bothering my ears.” You explain, and he just nods. But before he can respond, you continue, “They’re in pain when it’s cold and earmuffs don’t do anything except block out sound and I can’t hear anyways, negating the point of my hearing aids.” You’ve tried earmuffs time and time again. And usually, you’d just wear a beanie or something, but you forgot yours.
So, Matt thinks for a moment, before tucking his cane under his arm, before lifting his hands to come up to your face. The heel of his hand comes up to rest against your cheeks while the length of his fingers gently cup around your ears. He’s not pressing down, making it harder to hear, but your ears are immediately warmer. Matt’s hands—and well, everything, are naturally very warm and the leather gloves he has on makes it even more so.
Your face flushes, as you lean into his touch. What a man you have found yourself. You stay like this for a little while, until your food is ready. Your face turns and you plant a gentle kiss to the palm of his hand.
As you leave the restaurant after grabbing your food, you want to say one more thing. Just quickly.
“Thanks for helping, by the way.. I’m sorry I constantly complain about my ears.” You tell him, and he just gets this goofy grin on his face.
“At least you’re not blind. That would suck.” He links his arm with yours. You just laugh, leaning against him.
“Shut up,” and at this request, he scoffs.
“You love listening to me talk, it’s one of your favorite things ever!” he defends.
You just grin because your boyfriend can tell when you’re lying. And you know anything other than telling him that what he said was true would be the biggest lie you ever told.
...
It’s not all sunshine and rainbows with Matt, though.
Okay, maybe that’s sort of dramatic. Neither of you are particularly violent nor angry, but one time you get really heated.
Your time working with Nelson, Murdock & Page is wonderful, and because it’s just the four of you, often, you wind up getting lunch together. Someone runs out, grabs food, and you all sit in the conference room, talk and eat.
But today, you barely made it to lunch.
“Where do you guys wanna eat today?” Foggy asks, leaning against your doorway. He knows Matt can hear him from wherever, but you need him to be in the room to be able to decode what he’s saying. Karen leans against the desk in the main part of the office.
“Pizza?” You shrug, and Matt calls from his office,
“Sounds good!”
“Great. What do you guys want?” He asks.
“I’m really in the mood for buffalo chicken pizza, I dunno why.” You shrug. Matt’s footsteps echo through the office, before he’s in your doorway as well.
“What the fuck did you just say?”
You gaze at him, perplexed.
“Uh… I want buffalo chicken pizza?”
“Honey, You cannot be serious.”
“What is your problem, Matthew?” You laugh, but he looks disgusted.
“You are a New York native! How can you enjoy something as blasphemous as wanting buffalo chicken pizza?” He asks, and Foggy just laughs.
“Dude, no way. You can’t be discriminatory towards pizza.” Then, Karen speaks up.
“No, you can’t. Not technically. But I most definitely am. Buffalo chicken pizza ruins the point of pizza!”
Then, you go to defend yourself.
“The point of Pizza is to enjoy it! And I enjoy buffalo chicken pizza!”
“Well, you’re enjoying pizza wrong!”
“You can’t enjoy pizza incorrectly!”
At this point, Foggy is just giggling, “I can’t breathe,” He wheezes.
Now, you stand and leave your desk, going into the main part of the office.
“Where are you going?” Matt asks.
“I don’t need to be berated about my pizza preferences in my own office by my own boyfriend!”
“I have a valid excuse; I can taste all the ingredients of buffalo chicken pizza and it’s disgusting!”
“It’s not my fault you’re a freak with crazy senses!”
Matt gasps, “Bee, you wound me!”
“Do not use that nickname with me, Matthew!” You tell him, “That’s a low blow!”
“Why, just because I think your pizza choices are awful doesn’t mean I don’t still love you, Sweetheart! Your pizza preference is just inexcusable, and I think you need to accept that—”
“You know what?”
“What?”
Your hands come up to your ears, quickly turning your hearing aids off and taking them off, putting it on a nearby desk.
Though you cannot hear, Foggy and Karen’s face tells you that they are dying of laughter, and Matt has this offended look on his face when he realizes he no longer hears the familiar buzzing of your hearing aids.
This is how you spend your day. You sit at your desk, hungry, as your boyfriend yaps by your doorway. You know he’s asking you to put your hearing aids in or telling you that your pizza request is dumb, you can just sort of make out what he’s saying by the movement of his lips.
But you do not budge, and by the time it’s time to go back to his apartment, you simply slip on your coat and wait for him to meet you by the door. He has given up trying to talk to you, for the most part. But the silent treatment is killing him. Even when you get to his apartment, he’s left speechless as you silently retreat into his bedroom, stealing some clothes and going to lay down.
Honestly, though? The worst part isn’t the silent treatment or ignoring him, but it’s the fact that he knows your ears ring even worse when you walk through the city without your hearing aids on. He knows you’re in pain. It’s killing him because you’re trying not to show it, but he can tell you’re clenching your jaw and burying your head beneath his pillow. You’re trying to rely on the softness of his sheets and the faint smell of him lingering between the sheets.
So, he devises a plan. And every minute he waits for the plan to be carried out is torture because he knows you’re too stubborn to forfeit your opinion on buffalo chicken pizza. When he is finally able to give you an apology you truly deserve, he grabs your hearing aids off the coffee table and crawls into bed behind you. You feel the bed dip but don’t say anything.
He plants a soft kiss to your hand, beginning to trail kisses up your arm and shoulder. He kisses your neck, and then jaw. You glance back over to him, seeing the hearing aids in his hand. You take them from him and put them on, before turning them on. He grins at the familiar humming they create at a frequency that will not bother you.
“Still mad at me, bee?” He asks, kissing your shoulder again. You shrug.
“Mad is a strong word, but yes.”
“Let me make it up to you?”
“Fine, but only because you’re cute.” He likes this answer. He takes your hand and pulls you off the bed, taking you to the kitchen. And you smell.. Pizza. There’s a box from your favorite place, and you step away from him to open the box. It’s a half plain pie and a half buffalo chicken pie. Because no matter how much he disagrees with you, he just wants you to talk to him and not be in so much pain for the sake of winning an argument.
You turn your head and place a soft kiss to his cheek. He tilts his head and places a soft kiss to your lips.
“Am I forgiven, bee?”
“I think so, Matty.” You hum.
He grins and kisses you again, thrilled to sense your more relaxed posture now.
...
Another challenge of your relationship comes from being lawyers. Mostly since you’re both ridiculously stubborn. You have a fun game you like to play out of it, though.
This one time you play, you’re laying with him on his couch, listening to music when you start yapping.
“I think I might style my hair a different way,” you tell him, but he just shrugs and plays with your hair.
“I think you look gorgeous either way.”
You furrow your brows for a second, and his face splits into a grin since he knows what’s coming.
“Objection,” you start, “You’re blind, you have no actual way of telling if I’m conventionally attractive.”
He considers this for a second.
“Overruled,” He determines, “Beauty is subjective, and in my opinion, you’re the most beautiful person I’ve ever known.” Your face flushes.
“Objection,” You start again, and he groans, knowing you won’t let it go, “You don’t need to flirt with me, I already want you.”
“Overruled,” He counters again, quicker this time, “I like flirting with you, and it keeps the spark alive. Plus, I like making you blush.”
You raise an eyebrow, and he knows what’s coming next.
“Objection,” You hum, “How could you possibly know I’m blushing?”
He simply moves his hands from your hair and rests them against your cheeks, before deciding.
“Overruled.”
There’s another time that you’re at Josie’s, and you want to talk to Karen about a surprise you’re planning for his birthday, but he’s sitting right there, so you start signing. And he knows you’re signing by the way your hands smack, and the air moves through your fingers.
“Objection,” He groans, “I can’t understand what you’re talking about!”
“Mm, Overruled,” You determine, “There are some things I’m allowed to keep from you, but you have super senses and can tell when I’m lying and can hear me from a long distance away. Signing is the only way to have things be confidential.”
He raises an eyebrow.
“Okay, objection—You aren’t supposed to keep secrets from your partner.”
“Overruled.” You tell him. “One, that’s something people say about wedded spouses, ask me to marry you, get a marriage certificate and show me a nice ring then we’ll talk,” He blushes at that, “Two, you have an unhealthy idea of relationships from past relationships. You’re in therapy for a reason.”
Matt nods.
“Okay, okay.” He sighs, “That’s fair.” You grin at this.
“See? Was it so hard to let me win, Counselor?”
He raises an eyebrow.
“Yes, it was, Counselor.” He tells you, but you just giggle, because you love being a lawyer and you love your boyfriend.
But this last time is your favorite.
You spent the night drinking at Marci and Foggy’s, but there was this tension between you and Matt, and you can hardly wait to get home. So at some point, you make a half assed excuse, mumbling something about how your hearing aid batteries are low, but whatever it was that you told them as an excuse, you don’t really care.
Because now you’re on your bed, Matt pressed against you as he kisses down your neck. His teeth graze against your skin, and you gasp when he bites down, leaving a large mark on your neck.
Then, Matt, horny and a little tipsy, goes,
“Objection, I thought I told you to be quiet.” He continues to kiss your neck, jumping from side to side, leaving marks here and there.
“Overruled, I’m deaf, I can’t tell how loud I’m being,” You hum, your fingers lacing into his hair. He hums and kisses your collarbone before he speaks again.
“Objection,”
“Jesus fucking Christ, Matt—”
He shushes you softly before kissing you.
“Ssh… It’s listening time, sweetheart,” Okay, that was hot, “Objection,” He starts again, “You can be quiet for me, I know you can. I know you can follow orders, baby.” He then kisses your neck again.
“Overruled,” You start, tugging on his hair a bit. “You decided to play our game while knowing I’m at your mercy. It’s an abuse of power.”
“An abuse of—” he half scoffs, half chuckles. “You know what, Sweetheart?”
“What, Matty?”
“Objection. Be quiet or I’ll stop.”
Damn. An ultimatum. You knew that in situations like these, Matt’s willpower is stronger than yours.
“Sustained.”
“There we go, bee, was that so hard?”
...
The real best part of dating Matt Murdock, a blind lawyer with super senses while being deaf?
Well..
It starts on a warm sunny Sunday morning. You’re laying in bed, the sun peeking through its curtains. You’re laying on your stomach, face smooshed against pillows as he stretches out beside you. In another life, your dear boyfriend was a cat.
You don’t have your hearing aids in yet. It’s too early. Plus, you’re just enjoying the look of Matt basking in the warmth of the light. He’s gorgeous, your boy.
You lean forward and gently kiss the corner of his eyes, squeezed shut as he stretches. He stops when he feels your lips against his skin, smiling softly. He says good morning, but you can’t really hear him, so you just take his hand and press a kiss to his skin there too.
He returns the favor later, as you’re pouring your coffee. He presses a soft kiss to your ear, and you grin, resting your body against his He presses another kiss to your other ear. It’s something small, but it thrills you.
Matt is gentle with you in a way that you’re not used to. It’s not the sort of gentleness that comes with most people, where they’re afraid of breaking you because of your being deaf, but it’s a gentleness that comes despite it.
You enjoy bathing in his affection, especially because he is just so willing to give it to you and while it should be something you’re used to, you’re not. But you’re getting there. Matt makes sure of it.
The pair of you just seem to find the darkest cracks and crevices of the other, and you love those parts dearly.
You begin to kiss the corner of his eyes more often, and it quickly replaces his jaw as your favorite place to kiss. And your ears, despite how much pain and suffering they provide to you, Matt is a big fan of just kissing them.
So, when he leans forward and kisses your ears, you lean over to him and kiss the corners of his eyes. The way he squeezes his eyes shut at the affection is pretty adorable. It’s always awful when he must slip on those red glasses that hide those pretty eyes.
“Objection,” you groan.
He places a soft kiss to the top of your ear.
“Overruled.”

Alright so I’m riding the high of finishing a thing and getting inspired for another thing and also it being the holidays so I’m gonna channel all of that into rambling about a thing I wrote the other day that I really like and want to talk about. Spoilers for my in-progress next chapter of Uncharted Waters, I guess, if you care about that, I’m wedging this under a cut for the sake of everyone’s feeds.
Ok so as you may or may not know one of my favourite things to do is worldbuilding, and especially culture building, because there’s so much space to work with and stuff to make and fun things you can do, and the Star Wars fandom has been great for that because there’s so much room to mess about with. Especially for Jedi culture, because despite being our main guys we… don’t actually seem to see a lot about their culture as a whole, I feel? Like we get plenty and we can interpret what we do get but there’s still loads of wiggle room.
So quote time from my current fic so I can do the ramble;
>>> “You… they didn’t apologise for things. If it hurt, in training. You don’t complain, and no-one’s going to apologise. If it’s bad, you go to the medics. If it’s bad enough, then…” He shrugs, gesturing a little with one hand before going back to fiddling with the armour. “But training hurts. ‘Swhat it is.”
Anakin thinks, for a moment, of when he was still fairly new to the Temple, and had joined in some of the lightsaber classes for the first time, once he was close enough to the level other kids his age were. The time one of the Initiates had accidentally gotten too enthusiastic, and tapped him on the arm with the training saber. The way they’d panicked, dropping their saber and bursting into tears, repeating apologies over and over, and the way the teacher had apologised too for not quite noticing it in time- even though Anakin knew they’d already been heading over and getting ready to call out to them both, because they’d spoken only a second too late. The accident hadn’t caused any pain more than a small sting, like accidentally biting your lip.
How he’d been surprised that they were so upset, and had gone with them when the Senior Padawan helping with the lesson had drawn that Initiate aside.
“Training isn’t supposed to hurt.” They’d said, one arm around the Initiate. “Sometimes it’s going to, because you’re going to make mistakes and sometimes those mistakes are too big or too quick to catch in time. But it’s not supposed to hurt.”
“It’s not supposed to hurt.” Anakin repeats, soft and steady. “And I’m sorry it did.”
(I’m not giving a lot of context for this cause I think it’s at least a little self explanatory what happened.)
So the reason that this gave me the grins and makes me really want to ramble is because I really like how I’ve got the Jedi looking at training here. It’s not something that’s supposed to hurt. They acknowledge that it does, sometimes, because you’re going to fuck up when you’re learning and that’s going to hurt- not necessarily physically, but failing can make you feel bad and that’s still a hurt- but the Jedi don’t see it as something that should happen. It’s a hazard, yes, but if your teacher or your partner or whoever is actively trying to hurt you then something is wrong.
Meanwhile the clones grew up in a much, much harsher world, where they’re being trained as an army by people that don’t think of them as human, just droids, so the training is going to hurt, and that’s what they learn; training hurts, whether you make mistakes or not. Your teacher is supposed to hurt you because that’s the only way to get better. And no-one’s going to apologise for that, either; if you get hurt during training no-one’s going to say sorry, because it’s just what training is. Your teacher is trying to hurt you, is going to hurt you, and if you’re complaining then you’re the one in the wrong here.
And I think one of the big things- for me at least- is that this is Anakin saying this. Anakin is saying ‘training isn’t supposed to hurt’, and that’s important to me because Anakin was a slave. We don’t know a lot about what slavery on Tatooine was like, or how he was treated as a kid, but I can’t see training not hurting. I get the impression that training for a slave would hurt, because you’ve made a mistake and you’re hit to make sure you don’t make that mistake again, or something similar, y’know? So Anakin probably learned that training did hurt, because if he made a mistake he was punished for it instead of really being corrected.
And then he came to the Temple, and he had to learn himself that no, that’s not right, if you’re learning you’re going to do things wrong, and it’s a teacher’s job to correct that gently; they’re not going to hurt you in order to teach you a lesson, and you might get hurt in the process of making the mistake but you’re not going to get hurt on purpose because of that mistake.
I just feel like that’s a really important thing for Anakin to have learned and for him to be teaching to the clones in this moment. I really like how it’s turned out.

shotgun - daryl dixon
Tumblr media
word count : 6.6k
summary : done with another stressful semester of your university, you invite your friends over for pizza and some pre-rolled joints you were dealt a few days ago. when a handsome stranger tags along, throwing all your plans off course, you fail to anticipate how well you flirt under influence.
authors note and warnings : daryl dixon/f!reader. drugs, shotgunning, unprotected piv sex, cum eating, some dry humping, religious guilt mentioned very briefly, build up, porn WITH plot, nsfw as fuck, high sex (both parties high and consent enthusiastically), daryl jerks you off as you jerk him off, reader with female reproductive parts. song for the fic also mentioned in the fic: girls need love by summer walker.
you don't remember the exact series of events that led a stranger to your bed, smoking your weed.
what you do remember is glancing at a text from glenn, your friend of five years, saying that he would be at yours for movie night along with his new roommate because "he seemed lonely and could use some friends."
to be completely fucking honest, you did not want to make a new friend. you did not need a new friend. you were fine with the way things were; glenn and his girlfriend maggie occupied enough of your social life for you not to feel lonely even in your one-bedroom apartment miles away from your university campus.
after an arduous day of working on your midterm papers, you just needed a good old movie night where you could sit in comfortable silence with your friends and then eventually pass out on the couch. the universe seemed to have different plans however.
it's not like you didn't understand why glenn was bringing his roommate over; you weren't heartless. hell, you have been in his position before: new to the town, no new friends, just you and four cartons of your stuff neatly packed with the help of your mother - who, by the way, did not make the move easy with her empty nest syndrome.
maybe this was a good thing. you often complained to glenn about how you needed to get out more and live out your college days to the fullest before you succumbed to capitalism and worked a dead-end job just to make ends meet. you didn't even have to go out of your house to make a new friend, he would be at your doorstep in about twenty minutes. and besides, glenn would bring free pizza from his work. you could play along for some free pizza.
the clock struck nine pm as you shut your laptop for the day and leaned back on your couch, exhausted. your fingertips hurt from typing incessantly, and your thighs were uncomfortably hot thanks to your piece of shit laptop.
tossing the device beside you, you walked to your bathroom to freshen up, try and look presentable. you wouldn't give a single fuck if it was only your friend group coming over, hell, they have seen you at your worst moments where you were crying over your life or throwing up from drinking too much and vice versa.
this was uncharted territory. sort of. you had seen glenn's roommate once when you visited glenn’s to grab the notes you lent him for intro to microeconomics. you couldn't even catch his name in the few seconds his room door was cracked open, followed by a wary glare through the sliver and a loud thud, shutting you out of his sight.
your eyelids dropped as you splashed water on your face, replaying your interaction with him to somehow analyze him by his dialogue, or lack thereof.
socializing had always been rocky for you, especially following social cues or maintaining a conversation without thinking that the other person could not give less of a shit about you.
if glenn's roommate was anything like glenn, a raging extrovert, he would do most of the talking and all you would have to do is nod and comment. judging by his reaction to seeing you the other day, however, you were afraid that he was more of an introvert compared to you.
as you picked an outfit for the night, something comfortable but presentable, you practiced your smile.
should you smile with your teeth, or offer an obligatory tight-lipped smile? did it seem fake? would it be interpreted as rude?
throwing on a black tank and some red flannel pants, some of your best clothes to sleep in, you felt anxiety glow red hot in your veins, twisting your gut horribly.
the way your body reacted to socializing was a bit much, in your opinion. you wouldn't actively worry about things, but your body acted in ways your brain didn’t. you couldn't figure out for the life of you what it was, and you weren't sure you wanted to.
a few deep breaths settled your stomach as you checked yourself in the mirror. you looked decent, and you could pass out comfortably in your living room. your hair was okay, not much could be done to it so you left it be.
it had been fifteen minutes, and glenn texted you saying that he was downstairs as a heads-up so you could "fix yourself up haha."
that little shit.
rolling your eyes, you texted him to fuck off and did a once-over around you to make sure your apartment was tidy enough. as you waited by the door, right foot tapping impatiently, that feeling returned, the one that made you want to throw up and shit your guts out simultaneously.
you heard a distant conversation from the hallway and straightened your clothes in preparation. as soon as you heard three raps on the door, you opened it immediately.
"wow that was quick, were you standing at the door waiting for us?" glenn greeted you with a box of pizza in his hand. you were about to tell him to eat shit but the smell of the food worked like a charm as you ignored his remarks and moved away from the door to let your friends, well, two friends and the stranger, in.
maggie’s arms caged you in, rocking you from side to side, "i haven't seen you in so long, how have you been!"
the girl smelled like roses, soothing your anxiety one nerve at a time. "i've been okay, just buried in exams and papers, like the usual..." you trail off, appreciating the bear hug she still had you in. you loved maggie, her voice, her energy, her eyes; everything about her made you feel lighter and absolved you of all worries.
so much so that you forgot about the figure standing awkwardly outside your door with a pack of beers in his right hand and his left stuffed in his pocket.
you widened your eyes, letting go of maggie with a kiss on her cheek.
"hey, nice to meet you, um... i'm sorry, i don't think we have met..."
"oh yeah! that's daryl, look at what he brought!" glenn exclaimed, setting the pizza down on the coffee table.
"beer," daryl commented, nodding to himself.
this is going to be fun, you thought, painfully, offering him a practiced smile to lighten his heavy aura.
daryl. his name certainly suited him. clad in all black, a silver chain hanging off his belt loops, and a top that looked like its sleeves had been ripped off. you didn’t hate the way that it revealed his surprisingly buff arms as he walked into the apartment, raising them and holding the booze, "where d'ya want this?"
his voice had a drawl to it; deep like a smoker’s, deeper with that country accent of his.
caught up in your own observations, your delayed response to daryl's simple question had glenn snicker, earning a quick and hopefully stabbing nudge from maggie.
pointing at your coffee table, you started, "so daryl, you new to this town?"
the man grunted a "yes" without any follow-up, which had you frantically search for the remote control of your tv, the best social lubricant at your disposal.
as you passed the remote control to glenn to put on a movie of his choice- since it was his turn this week- your view switched to daryl, sitting on the other side of the couch with his legs parted open and both arms resting on the cushions.
you tried overlooking the manspreading just this once.
he wore his hair down, strands covering his face dishevelledly. you wondered how it didn't bother him to have hair blocking his view or tickling his face. your gaze narrowed in, ignoring maggie and glenn arguing over which movie they wanted to watch.
daryl's eyes were focused… or too relaxed? you couldn't tell. the kajal on his lower waterline certainly made your gut flip in excitement, confusing you momentarily. he looked messy; the torn shirt, the ripped black pants, and even his greasy-looking hair for that matter. but even the short duration you knew him for, it suited him.
you kind of liked it.
“let’s watch jaws! please!” glenn protested, tugging on his girlfriend’s arm, to which she just rolled her eyes and shook her head.
“how many times do you wanna watch it?! no, pick sumn else.”
daryl didn’t care for their argument clearly, scoffing and reaching for a bottle of beer on the coffee table. the bottle looked comically small in his hands as you watched him buck his hips to fetch what looked like a lighter from his back pocket.
at this point, glenn and maggie were basically non-existent as you observed daryl holding the butt of the lighter to the bottlecap and flick it off in one swift motion. the sheer ease with which he undid the seal made you widen your eyes, an amused smile painting your lips.
you heard the faint tune of the theme song of jurassic park. the couple must have settled on a movie, finally, you thought. your eyes trailed every movement of daryl’s, focusing on the way he brought the mouth of the bottle to his lips, chugging down almost half of the drink, his adam’s apple bobbing prominently.
a foreign feeling blossomed at the bottom of your gut, making you shift in your seat. you watched intently as daryl separated the bottle from his mouth, leaving a glossy sheen on his bottom lip.
what the fuck was happening to you?
you didn’t know jack shit about daryl, you didn’t know his morals, or his background, or even had a proper conversation with him before. so why were suddenly fixing your hair and adjusting your clothes?
why did you care?
peeling your eyes away with great difficulty, you turned your attention to maggie who was reaching for a slice of pie, “what toppings did you get?”
“half mushroom and half jalapeno, no pepperoni this time though, they were out,”
you nodded at her, knowing full well your attention was still hung up on the standoffish man sitting across you. turning toward the tv, you leaned back in your seat, puffing your chest out for a deep breath and settling into the soft cushion behind you.
daryl remained silent and focused on the screen, occasionally snickering at the jokes and mumbling to himself as he nursed his beer. he really was an introvert. not the kind scared to talk, but the kind who would rather not; save his breath instead.
at that rate, you weren’t going to get to know him at all, and the tension in the air seemed to grow by the second, at least for you.
halfway through the movie, you exhaled, breaking the deafening silence from the sheer lack of conversation. daryl and maggie’s heads turned to you; glenn’s vision remained glued to the screen.
“this movie is so fucking boring, glenn!” you interrupted, finally snapping the boy out of whatever spell jeff goldblum's chest hair had him in.
“this is not fucking fair, did i ever complain about any of your movie picks?” he rolled his eyes, setting his fourth slice down inside the box, clapping the crumbs off his fingers.
“ask me if i care. we aren’t even talking, we’re just staring at this screen. look at maggie! she almost dozed off a couple of times!” you responded, leaning forward in your seat and pointing at the poor girl trying to keep her eyes open.
defeat washed across your friend’s face as he swung an arm around maggie to pull her in.
offering him the most shit-eating grin, you began, “i recently bought some pre-rolls as an after-exam-season treat… it’s purely indica so it won’t have us neurotic…” you trailed off, scanning your friends’ as well as daryl’s faces for approval.
maggie straightened her back, a glint in her eye you rarely witnessed. you knew glenn would never say no to a little bit of relaxation, especially after a long day at the shitty job he works.
“fuck yeah, now we’re talking.” daryl sighed, rubbing his temples and setting his beer down.
oh, so he was bored as fuck before.
you knew it had nothing to do with you whatsoever, especially because glenn was clearly at fault, although you couldn’t help but feel like you disappointed him.
a complete stranger who happened to catch your eye and can’t leave your mind.
holding up your index finger, you rushed to your bedroom, giddiness blinding your senses just at the mere thought of being the perfect host for your guests.
when you returned to the living room with a flat metallic box, the movie was turned off and maggie succeeded to connect her phone to your bluetooth speaker, shuffling through her numerous playlists before finally landing on one.
“you’re gonna like this song…” the girl pointed at you, her eyes following your figure the moment you stepped into the living room. tilting your head in confusion, you waited for the song to begin as the speaker turned on with three little beeps.
“honestly…” you heard from the speakers, ears perking up instantly. your eyes widened at maggie in excitement, your mouth falling agape.
daryl and glenn observed the two of you, confused at the sudden change in atmosphere.
as the instrumental in the background progressed, you rushed to your seat, nudging the lid of the box open with the pad of your thumb. the scent of weed, not the kind that stinks but is subtle and almost nostalgic, enveloped your senses. your fingers found themselves picking the well-rolled joint in your hands and asking someone for a light.
daryl grabbed his lighter, which you noticed had a sticker of a skull on it, and extended his hand. his buff, well-defined, muscular-
“you think one joint’s gonna be enough? i’m not a lightweight unlike this loser here,” daryl spoke in a full sentence for the first time, gesturing towards glenn as he flicked the lighter on and looked up at you. placing the joint between your lips, you craned your neck forward and leaned in to meet the flame halfway, two fingers ghosting in a ‘v’ under the cigarette in case it fell.
“i have plenty, daryl. getting high won’t be a problem,” you glanced up at him, through the flame, paying close attention to his eyes for the first time now that his hair was mostly out of the way.
his face bathed in the orangish hue of the flame, as did yours, revealing the true color of his eyes. they were a deep prussian blue; not what you expected but certainly liked. the spark from the lighter chipped away at the twisted head of the joint and bit the ground-up grass eventually.
sucking in, you breathed life into the stick between your lips, the head pulsing red-hot as you inhaled the smoke into your lungs. momentarily holding your breath, you exhaled, feeling an itch in your throat.
you forced a cough or two out of you before leaning back in your seat and processing the hit. your hand mindlessly raised the joint to maggie on your right, who grabbed it a little too quickly.
“honestly i’m trying to stay focused”
the song commenced, curving the edge of your lips upward. it might have been a placebo effect, the fact that you were a lightweight, or that you just hadn’t smoked in a while. but some of those reasons were catching up to you. fast.
glenn took several hits with ease, throwing his head back on the cushion and handing the roll to daryl.
“you must think i’ve got to be joking…”
his fingers, too thick for the small joint, held it with such care. like he would break it if he gripped it a little too hard. you watched the man take a long drag; his lips gently kissing the joint, drawing out the smoke to hold it down briefly before blowing it all out.
“i don’t think i can wait. i just need it now…”
you don’t know what awakened in you; maybe it was because your favorite song was playing, or that smoking looked especially attractive on him, or a combination of both, but your eyes widened unnaturally largely as you traced his movements; the movement of his lips around the cig, his chest heaving after a hit, his sharp collarbones on shameless display as he threw his head back in relief.
you were entranced.
“here.” he offered, reaching across the seating area with the joint in his hand.
you tried to make the exchange non-physical. you really did. but his fingers enveloped most of the joint and you had no choice but to fumble with them until you grabbed hold of the cigarette, his touch leaving your skin burning hot.
“i just need some dick… i just need some love…”
this was not relaxing in any way. you sat with this stranger you wanted to fuck as a song about wanting to fuck played in the background. you monitored your breathing and your posture; all of these efforts to impress this question mark of a man in your living room.
“fuck, i think i’m already high.” glenn coughed out, his head resting on maggie’s shoulder. you chuckled, nursing the joint once again.
you were not going to lie. the drug had gotten hold of you by now; your reactions were slightly delayed, you took longer to process what the other person said, and your eyelids hung lower than usual.
and there's the cottonmouth.
what trumps all of the above, however, is the pure euphoria climbing every fiber of your body. a harmony of numbness and freedom flowing through you, dusting the weight off your shoulders.
“you could be the one. we can start with a handshake, baby, i’mma need more than a hug…”
you might have underestimated the effects of weed on you. not only did it make you giggly and careless and hungry, but it also made you unbelievably horny. you looked up at daryl, a blunt weight on your eyelids having you cherish the softness of the cushions behind you. the pillow resting between your legs brushed against your core, throwing gasoline to the flame.
the nape of your neck felt hot as you swallowed thickly, trying to distract yourself from the situation at hand.
the bass from your speakers stimulated your body, vibrations traveling between your legs.
“girls can’t ever say they need it, girls can’t never say now…”
fuck, you wanted someone.
normally, you were fine being alone; it was difficult enough managing yourself, let alone someone else. and it isn’t like you didn’t have experience with romance; you had a couple of relationships in high school that obviously didn’t last. coming to university, however, made you realize just how not-ready you were to be involved with someone.
“hey can i take a nap on your couch?” maggie began, gently nudging glenn to make room for her head on his lap.
“already?” you teased the girl with no actual annoyance in your voice.
maggie nodded, tired and laying down on her boyfriend’s lap. you swore you heard daryl scoff slightly as glenn stroked maggie’s hair. you flashed a small, sort of obligatory smile at the couple on your couch.
the distance between you and daryl seemed to lengthen as half of your smoke circle was now passed out, leaving no one to pass the joint. your back strained, trying to close the gap between you and the man who did not seem to get high at all.
“hey, uh.. daryl? you high yet?”
“nah, i can go for a few more rounds.” he grunted kicking glenn’s leg in slight annoyance.
your eyes widened, bottom lip jutting out in admiration of his tolerance level, “you smoke often?”
“a lot of shit happens around… just easier to tolerate if you can forget for a while,” he spoke, bringing the roach to his lips.
“why not drink instead? why do you smoke?”
you knew you were testing the limits with this closed-off man, but how else were you supposed to get to know him?
daryl cocked an eyebrow, and you could hear him question why it was any of your business to know anything about his life.
“i’m not a good drunk.”
silence washed into the room, leaving you pouting your lips, trying to segue the conversation into something lighter.
“i like your skull tattoo.” you commented, eyeing the back of his hand. you realized it looked exactly like the sticker on his lighter. that seemed to have caught his attention noticing his slightly raised eyebrows.
“can you guys shut the fuck up?” a drowsy voice interrupted your conversation.
“what the fuck do you want us to do huh?” you retorted, turning towards glenn, who was scrunching his face in irritation.
“go inside or something i don’t fucking know!”
you would have usually kicked him off the couch for behaving like the annoying brother he is, but you had to think this through. there was a way this could turn out well for you.
‘going inside’ meant that you would be alone with daryl, probably on your bed too since there wasn’t any other seating inside your room. you looked at daryl, raising your eyebrows suggestively.
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
your room was slightly colder than your living room; something about the building ventilation being fucked up. daryl didn’t seem to care, shedding the sleeveless vest he had on, his biceps flexing in the process. you eyed the posters on your wall with criticism, hoping none of them were embarrassing.
“you like breaking bad huh?” daryl commented, pointing at your wall. you nodded, a smile pulling at your lips.
“good show. you got good taste.”
your chest swelled with pride, muscles around your mouth in pain from how hard you smiled. a chill from your aircon trailed up your spine, your arms hugging either side of your torso in an attempt to warm up. daryl glanced at you, specifically your breasts pushing up against each other, momentarily, before sitting on the foot of the bed with the dying roach in his hand.
you turned off the fluorescent white central lighting in your room before pressing the switch for your calmer, dimmer lamp.
“shit was hurtin’ my eyes, thanks.” you heard daryl chuckle.
“yeah, the landlord hates me, i swear. had to get candles because that light is just so fucking ugly,” you spoke, a laugh bubbling up. the smile on your face had not left since you entered your room. the full-body euphoria made you giggly, even in the company of a stranger.
sitting down on the other side of the bed, you dug into the metal box once again, fumbling with the tempting joints as your vision blurred softly. you felt his gaze burn into your skin as you sat in your dimly lit room.
“you play guitar?” he questioned, looking away from you and at the metallic blue electric guitar placed in the corner of your room.
“a little… i’m still learning though… you?”
“used to.” daryl responded, fishing his lighter out as soon as you stopped fumbling with the joint.
repeating the same routine; sticking the joint between your lips and leaning into him, overestimating the space between the two of you this time, you climbed toward him, fists digging into your mattress as you waited for him to give you the light.
you didn’t pay attention to the way your tank top dropped low in front of him, or how quick his eyes were to check you out before nudging the flame toward the joint.
you sucked on the cigarette, eyebrows knitting in pain from the delicious burn spreading through your lungs, not breaking eye-contact with the man in your bed. you exhaled slowly, the back of your head landing on the headboard with a thud, “fuuuuck… i missed this.”
daryl tilted his head, “yeah? why? you take a break?”
“well, i get addicted to things easily… and religious guilt and whatnot…” you answered, feeling weird about your sudden transparency.
daryl raised his eyebrows, “that’s heavy shit, you don’t gotta tell me twice.”
you pass the joint to daryl, his fingers sizzling against yours for the millisecond-long touch. the scent of weed fogged your senses as he blew the smoke out, coughing immediately after.
your nerves undid themselves one after the other, head swaying to a non-existent rhythm. this strain was strong. you had forgotten how dangerously easy it was to not give a fuck when you were high.
do something, say something, you scolded yourself, scanning daryl’s figure on your bed. it felt like the universe had dropped a gift on your lap and you, for some reason, refused to open it.
your inner teenager activated the second you sat down on your bed with him, letting your thoughts run wild.
the blunt ache between your thighs grew more unbearable by the second as you wondered how his lips would feel; how they’d taste.
you wanted to be near him and feel his fingers, his warmth around you. but nothing was going to happen if you didn’t close the gaping distance between the two of you. you parted your lips, heart beating faster than ever. if he shot you down, it would be the worst high of your life and you would just have to live with that.
your mouth acted before the sober part of your mind did, popping the first question in your mind.
“you ever shotgunned?”
daryl stopped fiddling with his lighter to look at you, darting his tongue out to wet his bottom lip; that same glossy sheen sent a jolt of lightning to the bottom of your gut.
you tried filling in the silence, “you know… inhaling smoke fro-”
the man nodded hesitantly, hair moving toward his face, “i know what it is.” the drone of his accent budded excitement in your chest.
you cocked an eyebrow and inched closer to him, “i haven’t.”
he stopped all movement, looking up at you to process the loss of space between him and you.
“how does it feel?” you tilted your head, shame or dignity nowhere to be found within you.
daryl’s chest heaved as he brought the joint in his hand to his lips. you watched him, processing his movements, heart beating faster than usual. his lips worked fast around the pre-roll, leaving you wondering whether he would look the same between your legs.
your thighs squirmed, body feeling smaller and smaller in front of the man leaning closer and closer to you. his hands cupped your face, the cool metal of his rings contrasting his burning fingertips.
your lips parted as you looked up at him through your eyelashes, surrendering into his hold. pulling your face in, he switched his gaze from one eye of yours to the other.
the strong yet subtle aroma of his cologne mixed with the frankly delicious scent of the drug scrambled your senses. daryl looked down, blowing smoke in a thin stream, refusing to look away from where the smoke met your lips.
like a reflex, you inhaled, hands grabbing at his legs for balance.
the room seemed to darken in comparison to the man holding your face. suddenly he and you were the only objects in the world, floating. daryl’s hold loosened as you inhaled for what felt like years of your life.
“how about that?”
your breath staggered, processing what happened a second ago. you nodded, not pulling away from him.
daryl was definitely high. a pinkish hue masked his eyes, eyelids drooping down lower than usual, and a mindless smile playing on his lips. you could say the same for yourself, still processing the position you were in with a handsome stranger you met, thanks to glenn.
“that was.. um… yeah. fun…” you struggled to find the words, still looking into his cold eyes. you shifted your weight, the flannel of your pants rubbing deliciously against your core, making you hitch your breath.
“you gon’ pull away?” he spoke, not letting go.
“you gonna let go?” you retorted, not pulling away.
you had to grow some balls. here you were, getting high with someone you actually were interested in after a long time. that was not the right time to second- guess yourself.
fingers tracing his jaw, you leaned in.
“daryl. can i kiss you?”
you could see the gears turn in his head as you waited for what felt like years for a response. not a word was spoken. the dim lamps lit the back of his head casting an angel like glow to his silhouette.
he brought the flaming end of the joint to his tongue, putting out the embers with a soft sizzle.
you widened your eyes, “what the fuck, how did that not hurt-”
silence.
the softest pair of lips on yours shut you right up, your nose finding warmth against his skin. daryl pulled you in, fingers reaching for your hair.
what was happening?
you kissed back, sitting up straight to find balance. his hands roamed your back and stopped at the small of it. he tightened his grip around the fabric of your tank top and pulled you in. your chest leaned flush against his, feeling the outlines of his several silver chains on your breasts.
your lips grew hot with every kiss you planted on his, his tongue swiping your bottom lip before biting it gently. the very involuntary moan he pulled out of you, had his chest heaving. your fingers found his small waist, relishing the way he felt under your touch.
daryl pulled away, muttering a string of “fuck”s , eyeing you head to waist, “you sure you want to?”
you deadpanned, mouth open at the man’s obliviousness, “yeah, i’m kissing you back because i don’t want you.”
“hey, no sarcasm. yes or no?”
“yes, daryl. you?”
“hell, yeah,” he nodded, pulling you in with one arm as he made himself more comfortable on your bed.
you pressed kisses on his neck, arms anchoring yourself around him on the cream-colored sheets. his shoulders settle, a long sigh escaping his lips. the grip of your fingers on his waist tightened when you caught the scent of his cologne mixed with the cigarettes you assume he had been smoking all day.
he leaned back on your pillow, eyelids dropping as he spread his legs to sink further down on the mattress. you tugged at the waistband of his jeans, signaling him to undo his belt. as he worked on his pants, you were quick to shed your tank, revealing your bra.
daryl stopped fumbling with his belt to look at you, breathing getting heavier, cock stirring at the mere sight of a topless you.
“daryl!” you reminded, noticing how distracted he was. watching him undo the zipper on his pants and push them down had you drooling in anticipation. you did not know it was possible to drool at the sight of someone, but there you were.
you started unbuttoning his shirt, peppering kisses from the nape of his neck to his collarbones, taking your sweet time to taste him. your other hand, having a mind of its own, palmed him through his boxers, fishing his first moan for the evening.
“you like it when i do that?” your open mouthed kisses made their way to the shell of his ear.
“fuck… yeah, do it again.”
following a soft chuckle, your legs straddled his waist as you helped him remove his shirt. you weren’t surprised when his tattoos were revealed, or his numerous chains for that matter. what you were intrigued about, however, were his scars.
scars scattered across his torso, some covered up with tattoos, some not.
“oh, um. yeah, these-”
“you don’t have to tell me.”
he nodded, relief washing over him. you sensed the hesitation in his voice as he tried to explain. you could tell that was not the time, clearly.
one of your hands slipped under his boxers, feeling his length. daryl’s mouth dropped open, eyes rolling back at your touch.
daryl was big. not just length-wise either; your fingers wrapped around him but barely met as you stroked up and down his shaft. his heartbeat quickened as he bucked his hips into your palm, desperate for more friction.
you had forgotten all about the pathetic state of your arousal between your legs, completely focused on making the guy writhing under your touch feel good.
so imagine your surprise when he mirrored you, his right hand sliding down your underwear to rub at your clothed clit.
you noticed daryl smile mindlessly, wondering what amused him in the middle of getting a hard-on.
“you get this wet for a stranger?”
a jolt of lightning shot up your pussy as you detached your lips from his neck, rocking against his thick fingers to meet his eyes.
“i wouldn’t be talking shit ab-... about someone who’s got your dick in their hand,” you replied, trying to concentrate on your hand and hip coordination.
“just a- fuck … just observing,” he whimpered through heavy breaths, eyeing your chest.
his fingers deftly hooked the fabric of your underwear to pull them to the side. before you could brace for impact, the coolness of his touch met the warmth of your pulsating clit, applying minimal pressure.
“daryl, fuck, can you just-” you pleaded, grinding harder against his fingers.
“nah,” you felt his smile through the kisses on your neck as his other hand unhooked your bra with ease.
you were so fucking close. but this was a competition, an unspoken one, but one nonetheless.
trying your best not to give in to his frankly skilled fingers working your pussy, your own stroked the head of his cock, earning a choked moan from the man who momentarily stopped all movement in utter surprise.
the bouts of energy shooting up your core were ten times more intense because of the weed. and maybe, probably, definitely because of daryl. that toy in your nightstand couldn't make you clench around nothing like his fingers did just a few seconds ago.
your biggest mistake was thinking that you had gotten the best of him. his focus, although seemingly on your breasts bouncing in his face, was on his own fingers, rubbing at your folds before sliding a digit down your slit and dipping into you.
head thrown back and eyes rolling to the back of your head, you gasped in your highest voice, painful pleasure coursing through your veins.
the pad of his thumb rubbed circles on your clit, the rest of his digits gathering your arousal to rub the folds of your pussy.
“this is to- too much, oh i feel so fucking good-”
“hush now, you don't wanna wake them up,” he reminded you, the stubble on his chin scratching against the soft skin on your tits. bringing his mouth to one of your nipples, he nibbled softly, massaging your other breast with his free hand.
you brought the hand previously wrapped around him to your mouth, spitting on your palm and pulling him out of his boxers before covering him with your saliva.
it was his turn to try and be quiet, teeth sinking down on his lower lip as he watched you jerk him off, smearing your spit on his tip and dipping into the slit of his cock with your thumb.
“where’d’ya lear- … learn all this?” the drawl in his voice grew raspier.
“i got my ways,” you looked up at him, mind hazy as ever, yet still focused on what was at hand. literally.
you don’t know what came over you when you pulled away from him entirely to take your pants off. daryl watched you strip, eyes raking your naked silhouette.
“what are you doi-” he began, trying to put two and two together. you climb back into your bed, pulling daryl in by his arms.
reaching for his cock, you straddled his waist, pulling your panties aside and slapping his shaft against your folds, the mere sound of contact sending shockwaves to your gut.
you rocked into his shaft, rubbing yourself up on him, your arousal smothering the tip of his cock almost immediately.
the warmth of your core sent daryl over the edge as his hands gripped firmly at your waist, rubbing his shaft up and down your slit.
your hands grabbed his thighs, massaging them steadily as the two of you continued to grind against each other, the tiniest of frictions bringing you closer to the edge.
“daryl, i don’t think i can last longer i-”
“me neither sunshine, you wanna do the honors?”
you nodded, wetting your lips and chasing your high. the sinful noises of his cock rubbing up against your pussy as you grow wetter by the second only help you as you bounce up and down against him faster and harder.
you panted his name, eyes shut and nails clawing his biceps, the tip of his cock swollen pink and pulsating.
as you focused on cumming, you didn't notice his thumb pressing down on your clit in one swift motion, sending white-hot flashes through your nervous system, your pussy clenching around nothing. his finger did not leave your clit, even when you fell back on the mattress, feeling your orgasm crescendo as your body shook in sheer euphoria.
you gripped your sheets, whimpering through the orgasm as you bit your fingers to stay quiet. tears of pleasure threatened to spill from your eyes when you arched your back at your final clench before letting go in exhaustion, clit throbbing bluntly from the aftermath of your climax.
your eyes flickered to daryl’s cock, the head leaking with precome as he watched you cum around his cock. he swallowed thickly, hands inching closer to your figure.
“daryl, you wanna come on my tits?”
eyebrows raised, he nodded hurriedly, climbing on top of a very topless you, and stroking himself. it still seemed as if he held back on cumming too soon even though you were the first one to do so.
cocking an eyebrow, you massaged the inside of his thighs, inching closer and closer to his pelvis before cupping his balls.
a guttural moan escaped his lips, the hand on his cock speeding up its pace. his mouth fell open, “fuck fuck fuck i’m coming, im coming-”
his climax painted your chest as his elbow propped himself up near your head, trying not to collapse on you.
your fingers played with the liquid, smearing it on your breasts before bringing them to your mouth and pushing them past your lips.
daryl, still recovering from his orgasm, took notice of that, a small smile playing on his lips before kissing you. the slightly salty taste of his own climax flooded his mouth as he felt your fingers thread his hair.
pulling away, you stared at him, the sheen on sweat on his forehead and chest a pretty reminder of what just happened between the two of you.
“you treat all your houseguests like this?” you heard him through the pulsation now in your ears.
that comment earned him a playful slap on the arm. “gonna help me clean this up first?” your eyes pointed toward your tits.
“depends, can i sleep over?” he questioned, already on his way to grab some tissues, letting you know he was joking around.
you giggled, sitting up to face him, “you can come over anytime you want daryl, you bring the weed next time though.”
you swore you heard him chuckle before saying, “deal.”
