"Please, great fortune teller of the mountain, I have journeyed many days and nights to seek your counsel. I, a brave knight of the valley, must know what my fate holds. How shall my foes be slain?"
"Hm... young hero... let me see..."
"Please great fortune teller, anything you can reveal will be a boon on my-"
"Have you chosen a name, yet?"
"Huh? I'm... Well I'm Syr G-"
"No, dear. That's not it... hrm..."
"What troubles you, great fortune teller? If there is tragedy in my future, you must forewarn me."
"No, not tragedy dear. I just fear it is not my place to- ah, what the heck. You're a woman, Syr knight."
"What?"
"You fancy the princess of the valley because of both nobility and envy."
"Wait-"
"You will find the changes you seek by beseeching the Woman of the River."
"..."
"The Princess will accept your advances, but in the end you will abandon her."
"I would nev-"
"Your armor will rust with the corrupting touch of the fell queen, who you will fall madly in love with."
"Stop, please..."
"You will pledge yourself to this entity and she will treat you like the princess you've always desired to be."
*sobbing noises*
"You will propose to the princess of the valley that she join you in your unholy campaign and when your tainted sword touches her neck she-"
"VERY WELL! I've heard enough! It is clear to me now that your fortunes are not all they are said to be. I will seek counsel elsewhere, good day!"
"So you say, Syr Emeline."
*distant sobbing*

𝜗𝜚 If Not You, Him 𝜗𝜚
Tumblr media
summary: Another hook up leaves the reader hurt again, he'll never treat her right but maybe his bestfriend will.
pairing: Eddie Diaz x fem!reader, Evan "Buck" Buckley x fem!reader.
warnings: Asshole Eddie Diaz, !!SMUT!!, rough sex, no aftercare, toxic fwb type relationship, unrequited feelings, lowkey seems a bit like Buck's being used, !!not a Buddie x reader fic!!
word count: 1.4k
notes: Shit's messy. The end could be so much better but it's almost 2am and I want to sleep. Probably some mistakes, as I said it’s almost 2am.
Maybe a part 2 which goes more into the relationship between Buck and the reader?? Idk comment ideas.
———————————————— 𝜗𝜚 ————————————————
The sun warmed my body, a cool breeze blowing my hair ever so lightly. I stood between my step mother Athena, May and Maddie who had a distracted Jee-Yun on her hip. We sipped on our cold drinks and chatted, enjoying another 118 family barbecue. 
I could feel his gaze burning into me, my suspicion confirmed when I turned my head to see Eddie sitting in a chair with his eyes glued on me, beer in hand and legs spread wide. Heat rose to my cheeks and pooled in my abdomen. He knew exactly what he was doing to me. 
I send him a knowing look and a quick head tilt motioning to inside, a pang of guilt tugging at me as I did so. He nodded his head discreetly so only I knew he understood and he turned back into his conversation with Buck, Bobby and Chim. 
I made my way inside the house and waited in the bathroom, using the time to fix my hair despite the fact it would undoubtedly be made into a mess again. 
A knock finally came at the door. When I opened it his hands and lips were on mine in an instant, groping at my body with a hot need. Desperate and animalistic he pushed my body flush against his and backed us up to the bathroom counter. The evident bulge in his pants rubbing against the fabric covering my skin. 
My fingers tangled into his dark hair, lips fighting against his. I could still taste the beer that he’d been drinking with my father on his tongue. His stubble grazed my chin as our faces moved against one another. 
His fingers trail up my thighs, lifting my short sundress higher up my hips to slowly reveal the lace panties beneath. He hooks a finger in each side and yanks them down, I step out of them obediently, my lips barely leaving his. 
Eddie’s kisses trail down my jaw and neck, stopping to lick a stripe along my exposed collarbone. Soft whimpers leave my reddened lips, begging for him. 
We both knew we had to be fast and quiet, the thrill adding to the wet heat pooling between my legs. He doesn’t bother ridding me of my dress, instead pulling the straps off my shoulders and the bust down enough for my bare tits to spill out. The black of his pupils grow as he basks in the sight before him. 
“I’ll never get over how beautiful you are, mi amor.”, he groans, taking one tit into his calloused hand. My mind was too clouded to argue back at him, I didn’t want to be his little secret anymore but I still came back to him every time. He was my one weakness. 
I hastily fiddle with his belt, struggling to get it undone. Eddie chuckles and gets his pants undone himself. 
His hands cup the underneath of my thighs and lift me up roughly onto the counter, the cold surface sending goosebumps across the skin of my legs. 
In a swift movement he shoves our hips together, I gasp unexpectedly at his cock entering me. His thrusts push the edge of the counter into that back of my thighs repeatedly, his pace relentless and unfaltering. 
My hands wander up his button up, feeling the defined muscles of his torso beneath it. The map of his body was ingrained in my mind, an image I’d often go back to.
Heavy breathing fills the small room, moans and grunts muffled by each other. One of his hands reaches up and presses against my lips, his eyes giving a stern warning to keep my vocals down. 
My back arches, head falling back to lean on the mirror. One of my hand grasps onto the brunette's shoulder, nails digging into his soft flesh while the other grips the edge of the counter. 
“I needed you as soon as I saw you,” he rasps out between grunts, “In that little dress. God, Hermosa.” His head leans into my body, tongue gliding across my nipple and swirling around the swollen bud. Every compliment used to convince myself I was enough for him, retold again and again in my head. 
My leg’s tightened around his waist, the knot in my stomach tightening with every one of his hard thrusts. “Eddie.”, I whimper around his almost suffocatingly large hand. 
“Be a good girl for me, okay?”, he husks. I nod my head up and down, screwing my eyes shut as my orgasm began to rock my body. At least he was good for one thing. 
His pace only fastens, the muscles in his arms flexing as he slammed our pelvises together until we both came undone on one another. 
Not even a moment later with a grunt he pulls away and absently he kisses the top of my head like he does every time, thinking somehow that it would convince me he cares more than a little. 
Without a word he fixes himself up, tucking himself back into his pants and doing up his black belt. I watch him, my chest still pounding trying to steady my breathing. 
“Don’t come out yet.”, he glances up and orders me, running a hand through his hair. I don’t protest and let him leave, closing the door behind him. 
I sit there for a moment collecting my thoughts, legs weak and sore, left yet again with a feeling of disappointment in myself. My underwear lying discarded on the tiled floor, cum dripping down my exhausted legs. 
I tug a piece of hair behind my ear, a silent tear falling down my flushed cheek. 
How did I keep letting it happen?
———————————————— 𝜗𝜚 ————————————————
Eddie 10:45pm
Come over. 
The message was short and simple, one sent and received many times before. But as hard as it was I had to say no. I had to break the cycle once and for all. Reluctantly and with a shaky breath in, I fired back a text. 
Y/n 10:47pm
 No. I’m not doing this anymore. I’ve found somebody else. 
Several minutes pass by before my phone chimes again, I had started to think he wasn’t going to reply back at all. I felt sick, both wanting to get it over with and wanting to not look at it at all. I picked it up, scanning my eyes over the lit screen. 
Eddie 10:56pm
okay.
That’s all it read, ‘okay’. My heart sank. I hated that he didn’t care but even more I hated that I thought he would have. It had been weeks since that time in the bathroom, our hookups came and went. Each time a failed attempt of breaking it off on my end. But over those weeks I had found solace in his best friend, Buck. 
The two of us had grown closer than ever and one thing led to another. Unlike Eddie, Buck was not afraid of letting our relationship be known. Rather he was excited and proud. The cherry on top was that my father was surprisingly supportive of it, I knew that would really rub it in Eddie’s face.
Eddie hadn’t been made aware of the relationship, only now finding out I’m seeing someone from that message and now finding out that someone is Buck as I walk into the fire station arm in arm with the blond. 
Eddie sits on the end of a workout bench, laughing along with something Chim or Hen said. But when his attention changes course onto us his smile is dropped. 
Buck and I stop walking. We turn to face one another and I smile up at him as he does the same to me. The way he looks at me is different to any way Eddie ever did and it makes my stomach flutter. “Have a good day at work, baby.”, I tell Buck, finally happy and able to show love to someone I adore who equally if not even more loves me back. 
He leans down as I reach to cup for his face, our lips meeting in a tender display of affection. A smirk tugs at my lips, I could feel that familiar stare on me, only this time it was better. I hoped it hurt him, like it hurt every time he left me. 
If he couldn’t love me then his best friend would.

yandere vying for a yandere prompt?
probably done before, but it's an idea that interests me and i'd like to see it explored more
---
X, a seemingly normal person in control of their emotions, someone logical and sensible, exposing their deepest darkest secret to a friend/acquaintance, Y
the secret: their secret pining for Z, turned obsessive and stalkerish
X has never loved before, if such a thing can be called love. finds it suffocating how many days and nights they've longed for Z. pining to tears even and losing sleep and productivity
begins rambling about how much info they've gathered on Z, how thoroughly they stalked Z, how much they fantasized about being near Z
laughs, self-aware of their delusion, feeling pathetic
Y has never had someone love them before, or has only experienced fleeting romances, looks at X's with admiration, pities X's unrequited feelings
Y wants that love for themself
maybe Y doesn't even love X. they just love the way X 'loves'. they want someone who will obsess over them so deeply the way X does. they like the idea of X
Y may try to manipulate X. maybe playing wingman at first, hoping to sabotage X's chance with Z at some point. or convince X that Z will never be interested, then comfort X after heartbreak.
Y becomes obsessed with X, wanting to hear more about X's emotions, wishing they were Z

I got bored and made Ana and Haarlep (my version of Haarlep anyway, non Raphael glamour lol, he's supposed to be more swole tho) in BG3.
Ana is okay, she wears more formal dresses, as there really are none in game. But she still came out cute. I still dressed her in things I think she'd wear.

Assuming the "love triangle" had to happen, if it hadn't been Magneto/Joseph, who would you have liked Rogue to date?
Someone who you think would have been up to the task of competing against Gambit (because let's face it, Remy has everything going for him).
Wow, this is a tough one, ( I hate love triangles.)
I lose interest quickly because you almost always know what the "final couple" is going to be but well here we go ....
It would have to be someone who is different than Remy to make the "choice" interesting.
Ha ha ha I'm having a hard time thinking of any candidates and the pros, without adding the cons.
Longshot is the Gambit of the 80's so he doesn't work for me.
Colossus could be an option, because he's a sweet and patient guy. And I really think patience is very necessary to date Rogue.
Emma would be a fun pairing, polar opposites attract, though rather than a love story it would be something passionate wouldn't it?
And I can't think of any other options really. Lol
You guys what do you think? who would be a good match for Rogue and why.

no gems on kipps’ rapier?
Greetings. I’m apparently not done being legitimately bothered by the lack of fake gemstones on the guard of Kipps’ rapier, so I’m making another, longer post about it.
SPOILERS FOR THE BOOK AND SHOW AHEAD
ATTENTION: I HAVE NOT SEEN THE LAST TWO EPISODES. I have been informed by my friend that there are situations in the last two episodes that might alter or affect the opinions and analyses expressed in this post. Please be conscious of this and do not respond with spoilers for the last two episodes; I will post an update when I have seen them. 
So in the books, we get the detail that Kipps’ rapier handle is studded with fake gems very early on, I believe as soon as we meet Kipps in the first book. At the same time, we are also informed that he is short, and we are shown that there is very clearly strong animosity between Lockwood and Kipps. It’s unclear, to me at least, how strongly this animosity is returned; it’s very clear that Kipps harbors a lot of it, but not clear how much Lockwood returns it. From the text, it’s very clear that Lockwood finds him irritating, but from my understanding, much of Lockwood’s animosity is derived from his ego and his pride being injured, rather than from Kipps himself. Lockwood sees Kipps as an annoyance, and in some cases as a case vulture, but mostly he sees Kipps for what he is: an adult supervisor who has lost his talent and now has a chip on his shoulder the size of Big Ben, which he has decided to take out on Lockwood specifically.
But mudking, you say, isn’t this post about the fake gems?
Yes, dear reader, you are correct; this is a post about the fake gems, and not an analysis of Kipps and Lockwood’s animosity and potential rivalry.
Now, as is clear to those who have seen the show, Kipps’ rapier does NOT, in fact, have any fake gems on the handle. In point of fact, it looks like a functional rapier, one that is intended to be used on the daily, and not just a symbol of his employment. At first, I simply assumed that it was a detail the adapter chose to leave out, and left it at that; after all, not everything can make it into the show and I could understand why this was left out. Except the more I thought about, the less I found I could understand.
But in order to understand my confusion, we need to look at what the fake gems tell us as a reader.
The fake gems work twofold as a visual symbol. First, they are a sign of vanity, which, when combined with Kipps height and behavior, gives the reader a sense of an inferiority complex. Second, it tells us that Kipps is overcompensating for the fact that he, as an adult supervisor, no longer serves much of a function at all -- in short, he is washed up and simply collecting a paycheck, and he knows it. (A point that in fact factors constantly into Lockwood and Co.’s own business practices and directly into Lucy’s past -- no adult supervisors to interfere and potentially get people killed.) And besides, a rapier covered in what I assume are cheap plastic gems (and let’s be real, they are) is not a particularly... secure setup; the amount of upkeep necessary to keep the gems in place would be its own headache. An argument could also be made that the gems symbolize Kipps’ own inflated sense of self as well -- no one else has any gems on their rapier, and it certainly would seem to point to Kipps holding an authority position. I feel this argument can hold its own, given that the text is from a British author and the monarchy is known for, among other things, their copious amounts of bejeweled symbols of authority. All of these things can be inferred by the reader, and all of them factor directly into why Lockwood and Co. do not take him seriously as either an agent or an authority figure, and why Lockwood is so arrogant around him in particular.
So, the gems do a lot of heavy lifting in terms of both characterization and setting the scene for future interactions between Kipps and Lockwood and Co. In my opinion, these gems serve an incredibly important purpose.
And yet they were not included in the show, a show which has been very good at its adaptation so far. Now, we can of course chalk this up to a simple difference of priorities and opinion between me and the brains behind the show’s operation. This would not be a completely illogical conclusion; I often have differences of opinion with people.
But since the gems do so much work, especially on a characterization front, what does it say that they weren’t included?
Dear reader, I am so glad you asked.
First, let’s see what the show gives us in that first meeting scene. Aside from the glorious banter, a very satisfying bout of one-upsmanship, barbed remarks, and a clever quip about needing a ladder, we get surprisingly little about Kipps’ character; the gems in the handle could have done much of that work.
As far as I am aware, the show has not explicitly stated Kipps’ age and his role in his group. It is clear from his appearance that he is meant to be somewhat older than Lockwood and Co., but by how much is unclear. It is clear from his team’s demeanor and deference that Kipps is in a position of authority, one that is similar to Lockwood’s. It is clear from the actor’s body language that Kipps considers himself an important member of his team who does work on par with the agents under him.
Now, what do these analyses have to do with each other? Let’s set them on the table side by side for comparison, shall we?
Kipps in the show is not portrayed as insecure at all, at least to my eyes. He is cool and confident in ways that are very similar to Lockwood. There is never any mention, to my memory, of whether or not Kipps still has any Talent or what kind of role he serves in his group. The lack of insecurity is a drastic shift from Kipps in the book, whether or not he does in fact still have Talent or is an adult supervisor, and constitutes a fairly drastic change in terms of the tone of the animosity between Kipps and Lockwood, as much of it does in fact have to do with Kipps being an adult supervisor who has lost his Talent. (We will return to the point of the change in tone of animosity momentarily.)
The vagueness in terms of Kipps’ age is also a problem for me. We know from the books that Kipps is supposed to be around twenty-two years old. I suspect that his age is left up in the air in the show for two reasons: one, that there is no neat way to explain it in the show, as the pacing is tight and Kipps does not factor that much into the first arc, and we do not have the luxury of prose to convey this information to us, the audience; two by leaving it vague, instead of naming an age, it allows the writers to structure a potential love triangle, a theory that is supported by Kipps asking Lucy on a date*. That being said, the lack of clarity in his age again changes the tone in Lockwood and Kipps’ animosity.
Overall, from the information we have now, this stands as a COMPLETE recharacterization of the relationship between Lockwood and Kipps. Rather than being pitted against each other narratively as two separate ideologies on how agencies should be run and how much agency (hah) should be given to the agents in the field, it instead rather looks like two peacocks preening at each other -- pure vanity and arrogance. Now, the arrogance we see from Lockwood in the show is in line with Lockwood’s actions and behavior towards Kipps in the books, but because of the change in Kipps’ characterization, we do not see it as Lockwood fighting for his ideology and principles (though make no mistake, there is arrogance and overconfidence there as well), but instead Lockwood taking unnecessary risks to prove something that doesn’t need any proving, putting Lucy and George in a tight spot at the very least. In addition to being unflattering for both of the characters, it simply does not convey the same narrative, and if the characterization remains the same, I will be very interested to see how they perform the shift wherein Kipps becomes a Lockwood and Co. tagalong later in the books.
As I said in the beginning of the post, I’ll update this again once I’ve watched the last two episodes. In the meantime, I’d love to hear thoughts and takes on Kipps, both in the book and in the show, as well as for the rest of Kipps’ team. I, for one, am somewhat disappointed that Kat is turning out to be more of a lackey in the show rather than cold and standoffish like the books, and I’m thrilled that Bobby Vernon appears to be just as much of a pompous shit as he is in the books. 
*If they are indeed intended to structure a love triangle between Lucy, Lockwood, and Kipps, which would be a monumentally stupid decision and which I hope the adapters were smart enough to not do (as they have done so well with the rest of the show, I have some faith in them in this regard), I can see why they would leave his age undefined; even with the main trio aged up from fourteen to about sixteen, twenty-two is still FAR too big of an age gap. Frankly, I wouldn’t even be comfortable with Kipps being eighteen and dating a sixteen year old, regardless of consent laws or anything of the like. Seeing the show is clearly showing us that Lockwood and Lucy are both very clearly infatuated (dare I say in love?) with each other and that Lucy turns Kipps down immediately (not to mention Lockwood voicing his concerns about Lucy leaving for Fittes and that whole scene in general), I again will reiterate that I am hopeful this is not the case, and is instead intended to show how much of an effect Lucy is having in the world of London agencies. (That being said, I will be apoplectic if they do decide to introduce a love triangle.)
