Genshin SAGAU, Creator of Teyvat, but not Humanity Part 1
Playing around with the idea of The creator of Teyvat, not being the creator of humanity.
Masterlist | Next Part
~~~
You were never much of a gamer.
Not that you disliked games of course, but it never quite clicked with you the way it did others. You’d try a couple of games on and off, but there would always be a point where it’d become boring.
Not that there was anything bad about the games themselves, you freely complimented the design and effort it goes into making these masterful pieces of art and code.
You just, weren't a gamer.
Until Genshin Impact
You can still remember the day you heard of it.
You were chatting with friends and one of them brought up this new game they saw a promotion for that they were interested in trying.
It was this anime-esque gacha game.
They showed you a couple trailers and promotional materials, and you must admit they were quite appealing.
However you didn’t intend to try it, knowing that you’d eventually drop it and move on.
But your friend still pestered you, claiming that there’s no harm in trying and dropping another game, after all it’s free anyways, so you’re not losing out on anything monetary.
Skeptical, you joined them in trying out the game.
And
Well
Let’s just say your friend got more than a couple of “I told you so’s” that day
It was beautiful.
The art, the music, the characters.
Everything about this game just, clicked.
You understand why people got so obsessed with certain games.
Why they would be willing to pay for things such as this.
Why this is such a large industry.
It’s, well it’s fun.
It was honestly quite frightening how quickly the game pulled you in.
You never understood the term “completionist”, until it started to apply to you.
Every quest, every domain, every achievement
You did it all
Every dialogue, every story, every entry in the archive.
You read it all.
You scoured the forums for bits of lore, and shrieked with your friend every time something new was dropped.
Genshin was all consuming.
It was honestly quite concerning, if it weren’t for the fact it was time gated with its resin cap and limited content, your outside life probably would’ve suffered.
On some level you probably knew that this was not normal. Your friends who were all gamers as well were never as obsessed over a single game as you were over Genshin.
But you reassured yourself, this is the first game that made you feel this way, its natural for you to go a little overboard.
I’m sure it’ll die down as I try out other games.
But you never really did.
No other game, no matter how popular or similar or highly rated.
Other games from Hoyoverse fared slightly better in terms of attention span.
But you always went back to Genshin.
Not that it bothered you.
Genshin was enough, considering you still had real world responsibilities to balance.
And that was that.
Until, well.
Until Fontaine.
You see, you’d always enjoyed the characters of Teyvat.
But you’ve never quite simped after them the way the fanbase did.
You admired their aesthetics and enjoyed their stories. But they never quite drew you in.
Even your main, was quite honestly determined by meta and whatever character you’ve managed to get your hands on.
There was never a “waifu” or “husbando”.
It was always the world and story that drew you in rather than individual characters.
Iudex Neuvillette was an exception.
The exception
He felt right.
You immediately knew you had to pull for him.
So you did.
And playing him was amazing. He was as meta breaking as you’d hoped and, well, you just liked him.
“Your first official Husbando” your friends would tease. You understand why they would go such lengths for a specific character now.
He was special.
He was a Dragon.
He felt, right.
You quite never understood why
Not until you entered the world of Teyvat.
That story,
Well,
That begins from the other side of the screen.
~~~
“I bet we can definitely open up a whole new sector in Fontaine if all goes well don't you think?” Hu Tao chattered as she and Zhongli strolled back to Liyue Harbor.
Zhongli hummed in agreement, only half paying attention to the conversation. He could tell Hu Tao noticed, since she was keeping the topic of conversation to light topics that anyone with half a mind could parse through. Only enough relevance so that he wouldn’t get lost in thought, but not so much that he had to focus on the conversation.
She was considerate like that, he knew since she had let many of his oddities slide, especially when he was still adjusting to mortal life.
Not that he was free from old habits mind you.
Zhongli doubted he would ever truly be able to blend into a crowd of mortal without some level of adept arts concealing his presence, however he was able to blend in enough so that the average nosy person was able to wave off his eccentricities a simply a facet of his personality rather than something deeper.
He cannot forget that it was thanks to people such as Hu Tao who were willing to let him in without many questions that allowed him to get to this point. Something he will be forever grateful for.
Be that as it may, it did not change the fact that some things will forever be kept secret.
His near encounter with the Hydro dragon for one.
Even from the other side of Qiaoying village where he’d made himself scarce, he could feel the amount of blessings placed upon the man.
He truly was favored by the creator.
Not that that was any surprise.
What was surprising was his own blessing.
Though much smaller, he still treasured the gift given to him by the creator of Teyvat.
Teyvat, after all, was a world of Dragons.
It was due to the advent of The Primordial One, did they lose their authority.
Not that many people knew.
Most people didn’t
The true History and creation of Teyvat was kept tightly wrapped, even the most learned scholars of the Akademiya could only infer at what truly happened, as well as the origin of humanity.
The true name of the creator was lost to time, only their title of the creator of Teyvat remaining. The mortals who lived on Teyvat daren’t give them another for fear of evoking their wrath.
They had plenty to be wrathful about.
Zhongli would only imagine his own rage, if anything similar happened to Liyue.
Imagine putting in centuries upon centuries of work only for an outsider to come in, destroy your work and reshape it for their own people. Before proceeding to have the audacity to name him as a contributor to their success and praise alongside such an usurper.
Just imagining it makes him angry.
That is why, the creator’s title is rarely evoked.
Names have power after all.
Names of gods even more so.
To evoke their name, their title, is to ask for attention.
Attention that would be safer left elsewhere.
Not that mortals knew the true reason.
The commonly accepted reasoning was that the creator of Teyvat has long turned their gaze elsewhere, satisfied with the current ruling of Teyvat, having entrusted their powers to Celestia and the Archons.
Zhongli would feel guilt at this blatant lie and rewriting of history if he could.
But he cannot, because to feel guilt would be to regret his actions and to wish something was different.
But he knew that he, along with all of humanity, Liyue Harbor, his Adepti and friends. They would not have existed, they would not have lived, has history played out justly.
The world is not just.
The world simply is.
He feared to an extent that the Hydro dragons would try to force a more cruel version of justice upon Fontaine, condemning them all as usurpers, when they had no idea, or even power over what had happened in the past.
Thankfully it seems that Focalors’s plan to integrate him into humanity worked. Stemming any sort of “justice” he may enact on humanity for the crimes of The Primordial One. In fact, he seems to have great fondness over humanity, absolving them of their sin and saving them from the prophecy that threatened Fontaine for so many centuries.
However, he knew that he was exempt from this mercy. Zhongli knew that when the time came, the Hydro dragon, or well Iudex Neuvillette would spare no effort in holding him accountable for his actions in usurping the original order of Teyvat.
Which is exactly why he avoided the man, dragon? as he did.
“-ello, earth to Zhongli, ”
Zhongli blinked, Hu Tao’s voice dragging him back to their situation at hand.
“Ah, my apologies, I seemed to have been lost in thought”
She clicked her tongue at him, “Aiyyaa, honestly Zhongli, I wonder sometimes if your age is getting to you, I was trying to get your attention for quite a while”
“Is that so,”
Zhongli couldn’t help but smile at her exaggerated groan.
“I was merely thinking about some old history,” he started, preparing himself to finish the history of Qiaoying village that he was telling Hu Tao on their way over.
“Oh no, there’s no need for that,” she waved off, a slight grimace on her face.
He knew how bored she was by the story the way over, so it served as a perfect distraction on the way back to stop her from questioning any further.
“Honestly a girl can only listen so much about the different varieties of teas and their subtle notes and flavoring before she has to burst yo know,” she complained.
“Well, the history of tea has a -”
“Oh look we’re almost there!” She pointed out, most likely in a desperate bid to stop him from droning on.
He was being slightly unfair to her, he knows, but it never ceases to become unassuming when people try to fake interest in a topic, only to regret it when they realize just how much there is to know about it.
Of course it can never compare to when someone has a genuine passion for the topic and wants to engage further, but those mortals are rare.
More often than not, he can use his vast knowledge as a smokescreen too, well, as Paimon would most likely put it. Bore people into leaving him alone.
He waves off Hu Tao as she bounces back home, and allows himself to take a stroll through the streets of Liyue Harbor.
The Lantern Rite was ending, another celebration successfully done under the hard work of the Qixing
He gazed around at all the sights, the lanterns, the food stalls, the beautiful atmosphere of people enjoying the celebration.
No
He could never regret what he did.
Not since it lead to peace and happiness like this.
And
If things are as he suspects.
He may never have too.
He feels it once more.
The glow of the creator's blessing.
He can feel it swirling within him as he steps through Liyue Harbor.
He wonders if they can see it as he does. Sees the beauty and resplendence of humanity.
Look, he wants to scream
They are nothing like The Primordial One
They are good, kind and beautiful.
Humans may not be your creation, they may not have originated from this world but that does not mean they do not deserve to stay.
But he doesn’t
First of all because he feels that screaming these things in the middle of a busy street may attract some weird looks.
But also out of fear, fear that any attempt to disrupt this fragile peace could lead to destruction.
Because it is fragile, it has only been a couple of years since the creator has turned their eyes to Teyvat.
Those who have been blessed have been careful in their own way not to destroy this chance that the creator has given them.
A chance to prove themselves, not only as people deserving of their attention and blessing, but as a people.
To prove themselves just as worthy of the dragons of staying in Teyvat.
Because they all know, in their hearts of hearts, that what the creator has created, they could just as easily destroy.
While some may tease him for his age, there is no denying that with age comes experiences that the younger generation may never know.
He himself, whilst having been born long after the disappearance of the creator, witnessed firsthand how it had affected the world.
How Godly remains tainted the earth for far longer than it used to.
How miasma and abyssal energy started to leak forth.
How Leyline disorders became more and more commonplace.
Teyvat was breaking.
It was falling apart.
But perhaps.
With this new chance, it could be fixed.
He could still remember the day the creator first turned their gaze upon Teyvat.
Or well, more specifically, the first time they turned their gaze on him.
He had heard rumors of an outlander from Mondstatdt making their way to Liyue. Tales of their feats and defeating Dvalin with the wayward Anemo Archon were as prevalent as talks about the upcoming Rite of Descension.
He had taken note of it of course, outlanders were rare after all, but he hadn’t expected this one to be quite, consequential.
Not until he met them.
He felt their approach funnily enough, the unbranded aura they carried within them. While he could’ve written it off as an aspect of their outlander status, internally he knew it not to be true.
He was far too young to have ever met the creator, or even the original dragons.
But he has stumbled upon their remnants.
Pure remnants, unlike the gnosis which have been twisted and altered by the time it had spent in the hands of The Primordial One.
It was, indescribable.
Free, yet grounded.
Unwavering yet fluid.
Swift yet languid.
It
It simply was
It was the essence of Teyvat.
The essence of the land he lived and fought and bled and laughed in.
How could he not worship it.
How could he not fear it.
He had felt Childe walk in with bated breath, distracting himself with his cup of tea to settle his nerves.
What did this mean?
Was this the end of Liyue, of humanity, of Teyvat?
Over the centuries people have accepted the creator’s complacency in the affairs of Teyvat.
What does it now mean that they have focused their gaze once more on this land.
Destruction
Salvation
He daren’t hope or guess.
But
Well,
The Traveler was kind.
They had no ill will towards the people of Teyvat.
While it was clear they had their own mission to stove for, they did not hesitate in helping those they can along the way.
If the creator has blessed one such as them, one so kind to humans, one with no ill will.
Perhaps.
A seed of hope planted itself in him, and refused to budge.
As time went on, the seed grew.
Hope grew.
The tiny seed of hope that he tried so hard to ignore and deny could be ignored no longer when he received a blessing himself.
He could still remember it so clearly.
It was a normal day, nothing out of the ordinary. He went to work, had tea, chatted with passersby.
There were no great feats.
No great revelations, or offerings.
Yet he felt it for the first time.
A blessing.
A pure, gentle, powerful blessing.
He could feel the sentiment behind it, weak as it was.
Relief, excitement, apprehension.
He wanted to cry, to pray. To thank them for giving him a chance, for giving the people of Teyvat a chance.
But fear held him back.
It still does to this day.
That’s the problem with gods, their pleasure and their wrath can often look the same.
Even as he compared notes with Barbatos and the Adepti, confirming that many of them have been given blessings.
While some like Ganyu, rejoiced in this blessing eager for a chance to prove themselves worthy of this world.
People such as him were still fearful.
Fearful of what this meant and what they wanted.
The straw that broke the camel’s back was when he realized that xiangling was also blessed.
Not that the girl knew, after all the creator was very rarely spoken of, only ever mentioned in ancient rites and the most descriptive of history books.
But she had the blessing, a human.
From that point he saw so many others, so many humans, mere mortals given their divine blessing and gaze.
An exorcist, an author, a member of the Qixing.
It spread across Teyvat, whispers as people soon realized that there was a god, an unknown god blessing them.
Granting them abilities beyond their visions, oftentimes enhancing them to levels beyond previously known human limits.
No one dared to say their name, they were insinuations, and speculations, but no one dared disturbed the fragile peace that has settled.
It is an understanding between those who have it.
Those who know, know and those who don’t are kept in the dark.
But it seems that the Creator has turned their gaze to Teyvat and to humans.

Can we get art of 03 Raph finding Donnie and immediately rushing the kid to Don for medical help because A bloody cuts from hobb, B he think the soft shell has something wrong with it.
Yes! and i'll even go into a little more about it since it's pretty neat (and definitely different than standard adopted au). Ok, i went a little overboard but here!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Poor Raphie. He just went from panicked b/c the baby is hurt, to panicked that he's hurt and permanently vulnerable.
Ok, so when Donnie escaped Hob, the cat tried to grab him again, but ended up just catching his arm and shell with his claws, leaving cuts. Donnie saw some water and immediately jumped into it, letting the sewer system take him away (he's an aquatic turtle so being in the water wasn't a danger to him, other than it was dirty water and he had open wounds.)
When Raphie finds him, he almost misses the fact he's there, simply b/c he blends into the water really well and only had his head sticking out. He realizes it's a small turtle but when he tries to get near him, Donnie hisses and even tries to bite him (he's scared b/c of hob and thinks that this new mutant wants to eat him too.) So Raphie, not wanting to get bit or upset the kid anymore than he seems to be, just sits down and tries to talk him out of the water. It doesn't work. Donnie understands what he's saying but doesn't trust it at the moment. No he'd rather stay safe hidden in the water, thank you very much.
Eventually Hob appears and Raphie, realizing this dude is what probably spooked the kid, chases him off. Donnie sees this and is like "ok, maybe he won't eat me." But Donnie hasn't started talking yet (he just didn't want to and now he's somewhere else and really doesn't want to) but he does make turtle sounds his brothers knew. So he curiously chirps at Raphie, figuring if he chirps back then he's safe since he's only had his brothers chirp back to him before. When Raphie doesn't do it immediately, he gets frustrated and thinks he's wrong. But then he does, a cautious, embarrassed chirp (b/c Raphie hasn't chirped since he was five and decided he was too old for it) and Donnie decides he must be safe and goes to him.
cue Raphie going into panic mode b/c holy shit, this kid has open wounds and he's been sitting in sewer water for who knows how long, and why is his shell so soft, something must be wrong!
thank you! This was really fun to do!

team bolas rojas gas masks designs??
in THIS day and age?????
it may be more likely than you think..
Tumblr media
this was my first time drawing a series of different gas masks, no idea if they’re accurate at all, but it was really fun!!
**notes & closeups under the cut :-D**
it’s a lot of notes so be prepared for an info dump.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
NOTES:
Philza: honestly, what more is there to say than “CROW MAN!!”? aside from his goggles being glow-in-the-dark, theres not much more to the mask design. however, i decided, “hey! this is purgatory! i can fuck up these characters!” so, he has a ripped ear(?)wing and messily cut back hair. (i didn’t pay too much attention to the hair in this design, i was mainly trying to get the gas masks down, but maybe i’ll go further into later.)
Cellbit: this is definitely one of my favorites, he looks pretty scary, i would NOT stop my car if i saw him on the side of the road. its based off of a cat mask(obviously) and a painted white streak goes through his mask, inspired by his hair. i didn’t include it, but circles in the goggles are supposed to retract with different emotions (kind of how cat’s eyes do, saucer and dagger pupils.) he’s also covered in blood because he’s going through it lore wise.
Slimecicle: ngl, it was my first time drawing code charlie(other than all the wips i have that i’ll never finish),but i think he’s pretty spooky. his mask is the worst quality, like it USED to work well until he wore it out. thus, there are broken air tubes that let the gas in. (he should probably get those replaced.) the holes for his horns are kind of like an airlock, so the gas can’t enter through them (phil helped him make it.) however, it makes it difficult to take off.
Baghera: baghera’s mask is kind of built like charlie’s, except in much better quality. aside from the loose air tubes, the mask almost goes all the way around her head, not letting even the slightest bit of gas in. theres also a plastic duck beak on top of the regular breathy-thing(i have no idea what i’m doing, so, no, i don’t know the technical term for that) to give it the “bird touch.”
Jaiden: jaiden’s mask was FUN. like i kinda went overboard. i did these all on different days, and this was the night after the big egg battle day. i saw she had fnaf bonnie ears along with her bird gas mask, and said “ok cool. i’ll add that.” she has the same feather/beak thing i gave to baghera. also, hair-wise, she gets a hair bun and her brown roots showing through(we love messy haired cubitos ^^)
Foolish: foolish was interesting, not sure i like the final product, but i’m tired, so it’ll do. his mask is based off of a lemon shark. he gas glowing green eyes and golden splotches on the leather. the air tube foolish has is REALLY long. like unnaturally long. so he wraps it around his neck to get it out of the way. the other members are extremely concerned it’ll choke him one day, but foolish thinks it’s cool and will scare other teams away. kind of like a “yea, i’m crazy, i could choke and die at any minute, and i don’t care.” phil, being the protective father figure of the group, does not like this at all.
Carre: and finally, we have carre. ah, sweet, sweet carre.(he is my favorite.) his mask is based off of a snow leopard because i hc he’s half feline. carre has the lightest, and most simple mask, since it’s entirely plastic, and more so based off of skiing or snowboarding goggles.
ANYWAY, i hope these notes make sense, excuse my rambling about silly designs, i tend to doodle messily, and not really have a plan when i draw, lol.
thanks for reading, BYE!

LOOKING AFTER SKZ WHEN THEY'RE DRUNK (HYUNG LINE : PART 1 )
Tumblr media
contains.  - lee know and chan being drunk, not proofread, suggestive jokes (in lee know’s), kissing + non sexual nudity (in bangchan’s) 
a/n. - i’ll be posting changbin and hyunjin’s seperately because i went a bit overboard with both of these. reblogs and comments are very much appreciated, because writers put a lot of time into their content and it's nice to receive a bit of love and feedback ❤️
Tumblr media
lee know is a absolute menace when he’s drunk but you’ve got to admit it’s quite entertaining. when you got a phone call from bang chan asking for you to come pick minho up, you immediately knew lee know was probably hammered. he didn’t drink often but when he did,  he got tipsy after a few shots. when you arrived at chan’s place to pick lee know up you opened the door to your drunk boyfriend immediately pulling you into a huge hug rocking back and forth.
 “missed yoouuuuu” he slurred, he was giggling and leaning all of his body weight on your shoulder whilst he cuddled you in the hallway . you said goodbye to chan (and the rest of the boys that were blowing the roof off with how loud they were screaming) , before you drove back to your own apartment. he struggled with the door completely missing the keyhole with his key, failing to unlock it while he pouts. you laughed at his actions and unlocked the door for him to save his poor soul from leaving his body. “mmm i could’ve done that mysellfff- !” he groaned as you let him into your home.
“sure you could’ve min” you smiled as you helped him shrug off his jacket. “c’mon let’s get out of these clothes, they seem uncomfy” you said pressing a kiss to his forehead before leading him up the stairs. 
 you instantly regretted your wording when your boyfriend smirked, “you know if you wanted me naked for you, you could just ask, pretty ” . you narrowed your eyes at him as he “you’re proud of that one aren’t you?” you questioned as he flops down on the bed , laying on his back. “my proposition still stands, you know your clothes look uncomfy too , you could take them off too ” he says calmly.
he’s unaware of the way the heat started rising to your cheeks at his words. you threw a pillow at him to shut him up whilst he starts taking off his clothes.  you break into a laugh at the way he struggles to take of his shirt as it get’s stuck at his ears. you walk over to your boyfriend and help him tug it off. he looks up at you with half-lidded eyes and ruffled hair, making your heart flutter at the sight.
you pull him into the bathroom while he groans,   “nooooooo” you whines as you tug at his arm, sitting him on the counter before leaning over to grab the face wash. he surprisingly sits still while you wash your face and put the toothpaste on his toothbrush for him. he brushes his teeth while you get a towel out of the cupboard to dry his face with. you follow him back to the bedroom , watching as he rubs his eyes sleepily. 
“’m tired now” he complains, earning a yelp out of your lips as he topples back on the bed dragging you along, pulling you on top of him. your torso’s pressed against his and you can feel the rhythm of his steady heartbeat underneath you. you go to move before you realise that he’s out cold. you gently slip out of his arms to turn off the night lamp next to the bed before laying on the pillow next to him. he looks so peaceful finally, a soft, blissful expression is gracing his features and you feel yourself smiling at him as you pull the comforter over the two of you. 
Tumblr media
bangchan doesn’t get drunk. he says he can handle his alcohol but that’s not what happened when the two of you went to the bar to have some fun after a long week. he started off with one shot but before he knew it he’d downed 5 and he couldn’t see straight. chan doesn’t get drunk... well most of the time he doesn’t, and this time was definitely an exception. you sigh in relief that you’d not had a drink so you were still alright to drive the two of you home. he’d walk all wobbly as you lead him back to the car, looking like a lost puppy before you sat him in the passenger seat and buckled him in. 
he looks like someone has just kicked him, a hurt expression painted over his face as he sits in silence on the car ride back to your house, his bottom lip pulled in a defiant pout. after you park, you open your door and start heading to the front door, expecting him to follow you but he sits tight in his seat with his head leaning on the window. 
you stop in your tracks when you see chan isn’t walking behind you and go back to open the door and sit back in your seat. “hey baby what’s up??” you question worriedly , he doesn’t say anything but he does perk up at the sound of your voice, he looks up at you with glossy eyes before pulling you in for a kiss. you gasp at the sudden move but you relax into it all the same. 
his lips are warm and though he tastes slightly bitter from the drinks he was having prior , you can’t help but feel yourself melt into his touch. his hands find their way to your waist before he gives it a gentle squeeze. you pull away before it gets too far, he was still drunk and he was in no state to carry on. he gives you the same hurt expression when you pull away from his lips. you quickly clear your throat “c’mon you’re drunk babe, let’s get homeeee”. you’d have to drag him out of the car and into your home before he finally speaks. you shut the front door before he topples into your arms, “’m tired” he mumbles as he hugs you. 
you smile at his childishness before helping him shrug off his jacket and leading him upstairs into the bathroom. “i’m gonna run a bath chan, then we’ll sleep okay?” you say earning a groan from him. “i don’t wannaaaa...” he says whilst you help him discard his clothes onto the floor. 
“you’ll thank me tomorrow if you take this bath, you’ll feel much better” you say ruffling his hair.  he stands watching you with a towel wrapped around him while you run the bath,  “you’re so pretty” he mutters softly as you close the taps and turn to look at him. 
you take his face in your hands and give his lips a sweet kiss, you smile at him to get in the bath.  “you’re super pretty too chan..”  you say as you take your clothes off and join him. you don’t miss the way his cheeks flush, whether that was because of the hot water or your words... you don’t know. you relax against his chest as he leads his head back against the rim of the bathtub. 
you went out to have a good time but you realised all you really needed was to spend a little time with your sweet boyfriend to cheer up.

the Clarks [five] // alicia clark
Tumblr media
summary: you go on a supply run with Alicia and things don't go to plan, leaving her extremely pissed off at you. It takes a reality check for you to understand why.
warning/s: mentions of the dead, injuries, weapons and violence.
author’s note: and this is the final part! such a fun one to write and i do hope the person who requested it liked it! kinda went overboard but you all know the drill with me by now 😂
one / two / three / four / masterlist / wattpad
Tumblr media
After being busied by chores and odd jobs around the stadium and then eating lunch, it was soon time to go on the supply run with the others. Alicia and I met the other two residents by the truck out front and we all made sure we were armed before heading out.
"This strip mall we're heading to should be clear enough, but we haven't had a team check it out in a while, so everyone be on high alert," Alicia warned everyone on the drive over. "Only go after the essentials, if there's any left. Ideally, some more clothes and shoes – stuff like that."
Everybody agreed, a focus in mind, and it was silent the rest of the way. Eventually, we arrived at the abandoned strip mall and Alicia pulled up, the four of us splitting into twos. They took to one side as Alicia and I took to the other.
Unfortunately for me, my thoughts were still on Rick and Alicia earlier, their flirting engraved in my mind and my jealousy still in full throttle. I couldn't help but bring it up.
"So, Madison and I were talking about the new residents earlier," I started, trying to make it sound natural. "Lots of good people joining us, don't you think?"
Alicia hummed as she kept her eyes peeled. "Sure is. It's amazing how big our little community has become."
I nodded in agreement, my grip on my knife tightening. "Yeah. New girl Sally is pretty friendly. Her kid's cute, too."
"Aw, yeah, he's adorable!" Alicia agreed with a smile.
"Yeah... there's Rick, too. What do–" I cleared my throat nervously. "What d'you think of him?"
She thought to herself, distracted by looking into the shop windows. "He's nice enough, I suppose. A bit too flirty for my liking, but nice. Definitely skilled with a knife."
What did that mean? She didn't like his flirty-ness? She did? God's sake, I needed more than that.
"Why? Did he say something?" she asked with confusion, glancing over at me.
I perked up, meeting her confused eyes. "What? No, no. Just wondering. I, er, thought the same."
She began to smile, unsure what I was doing, but nodded. "Right... weirdo."
Thankfully, she got distracted by a small thrift store and nudged me to follow her, and the conversation was dropped. There was lots of options to pick from, since it wasn't looted to the bare bones like other stores were, so we gathered what we could and loaded the truck.
Between that and the few others store, we managed to gather quite a few supplies, odd assortments of things but all that would benefit the stadium in the long run. As we were heading back to the truck, Alicia slowed down to look in the window display of a jewellery store. It looked pretty banged up on the inside, no doubt one of the first places to be looted back when the outbreak began, but Alicia was still intrigued.
"There's probably nothing worthwhile in there," I told her, but she was still up close to the glass, smiling at the rings on display.
"It's still pretty to look at," she pointed out lightheartedly, shooting me a smile before returning her attention to the rings.
Something about how excited she was for the moment made me smile to myself and I couldn't just leave it like this. She clearly wanted it.
"Then what are we waiting for?" I suddenly said, straightening up and going to the door.
There was a couch blocking the doorway, clearly put there by whoever had been here last, but it wasn't going to stop me. I began to lean against it in an attempt to push it out the way.
"Y/N, what are you–? Stop it, what if there's someone in there?" she followed after me, half scolding me and half worried.
"Only one way to find out," I said with a shrug, before finding enough strength to shove the couch forward, and it hit the tiled floor with a loud bang.
"Y/N," Alicia groaned at all the noise, but I ignored her and stepped over the couch to let myself in, before yanking open the other door so she wouldn't have to.
"After you," I said playfully, stepping to the side.
She fixed me with a disapproving stare but walked in, looking around. It was ransacked in there, as expected, but there were a few pieces of jewellery still on the shelves. We took a look around, Alicia warming up once she studied the displays. I could have watched her all day, the beautiful smile on her lips that matched the dazzle in her eyes. Seeing her happy was my favourite thing, as lame as it sounded.
"Okay, maybe you weren't that stupid to come in here," she admitted as we looked around.
"Let's not forget why we came here in the first place," I said with a smile, before leading her to the display window. "This one, right?"
I pulled out the ring from the display, a simple silver band with a gemstone embedded within the the metal. Holding it out to her, I tried to put it on her finger, but it was huge and would have fallen right off if I didn't catch it.
"Well, that was short lived," she said with a sigh, before trying not to laugh as she met my eyes. "Thanks anyway, Y/N. It was a sweet thought."
Unimpressed, I shook my head. "No way. That can't be it." I looked around, before my eyes fell to the stock room in the back. "Aha! There's gotta be more stuff back there. Let me have a look."
"Y/N.”
"Just give me a sec," I told her, before taking the ring with me and heading to the door.
Luckily, it was unlocked and I was able to walk right into a small closet-sized space that had an old, wooden shelf against one wall, full of stock.
"Alicia, I might need you to help me because there's a–" I began to call to her, but I was cut off by intense snarling from my right, and then something grabbed me.
I let out a yelp when I realised it was an infected man, the limited light from the front of the store shining through the door and letting me see his horrendous face. He must have been hiding behind a shelf, too late for me to see, and I struggled against him in the small space.
"Y/N!" I heard Alicia call, but I couldn't reply because if I moved my attention away for even a second, I was sure I'd get bitten.
He was so close to me – hot breath and rancid smell blinding me and burning my nose – that I couldn't find an opening to stab him with the knife in my hand. As I took a swing, he toppled right into me, knocking me backwards and to the floor with a thud. My head took the brunt of it, dazing me momentarily, but the snapping face coming at mine brought me back to reality and I just about managed to grab my knife again, stabbing him in the head before he could do any damage.
A second passed and his snarling ceased and I sighed with relief, feeling dizzy in the head. That's when I heard the creaking coming from my feet, and when I shoved the infected off my body, it was too late. The shelf against the wall suddenly toppled over, everything falling off and hitting the floor around me before the heavy shelf itself landed right on my leg, making me scream at the impact.
"No, no, no, no," Alicia suddenly appeared, taking in the scene, before scrambling for her radio and calling the others. "Guys, I need you at the jewellery store now! Y/N's hurt."
I forced myself to sit up, wincing at the shelf that was trapping my leg, and didn't move another muscle because it was too painful.
"You're such an idiot!" Alicia shouted at me, before kneeling down to grab the shelf. "I told you not to come here!"
As she attempted to lift it, I let out another shout of pain because she wasn't strong enough by herself and it was only making it worse. My leg was definitely broken and I wanted to throw up at how strong the pain was, but I forced my eyes shut and tried to push it away.
"You're so fucking stupid!" she continued to curse me out, but the worry in her voice was obvious. "I told you there'd be infected here!"
As much as I loved a good grilling, my head was still throbbing from before and I was still feeling dizzy, leaning on my arm to steady myself in the spinning room.
Finally, the others turned up and, between the three of them, they managed to lift the shelf up long enough for me to crawl out of it. My leg was definitely fucked though.
Alicia rushed to my side to help me stand, but I was nauseous as soon as I did and couldn't say anything for fear I'd throw up there and then.
"You didn't get bitten, right?" she asked, panicked and checking my face and neck.
I shook my head slowly, leaning my weight against her. "I think I'm gonna pass out, Alicia..."
"Help me get her to the truck," Alicia ordered the others.
After making it back to the truck, just about, we drove back to the stadium speedily, each slight bump making my stomach turn and head throb. Before I knew it, I was in the medbay back at the stadium, being sat upright on a bed and struggling to ease the dizziness.
"Is she gonna be okay?" Nick asked a nurse we had.
A bright light was shone in both my eyes, irritating me, and then the nurse replied, "She's got a mild concussion. Possibly a broken leg. But she'll live."
Nick grabbed my hand and squeezed it gently, and then my moment of peace was ruined when Alicia burst through the door with Madison in tow.
"You fucking fool!" Alicia suddenly snapped at me, glaring ferociously. "You could have died! And for what?! A fucking ring?!"
I winced at every word, her words ringing in my ear.
"She's concussed, Alicia," Nick told her sternly. "You're not helping!"
Alicia clenched her jaw, eyes full of tears, and after glaring at me once more, she left the room, slamming the door behind her. I jumped at the sound, surprised at how angry she was at me. Nick gave me a disapproving look but said nothing, and all I kept thinking was how badly I'd messed up.
Tumblr media
After being checked out by the nurse fully and having some medication, I fell asleep with a broken but bandaged leg that I couldn't put weight on for a while. I woke up to Nick by my side, who immediately gave me some water and helped me sit upright.
The look he was giving me wasn't easy to ignore, so after downing my pills, I returned his stare.
"What?"
He blinked. "Y/N, what happened out there? Alicia is pissed."
I sighed, Alicia's angry expression imprinted in my mind. "We were at a jewellery store and I went in the back. There was an infected I didn't see, that's all. It got out of hand, but I handled it."
"Handled it?" he asked with exasperation. "You broke your leg and got a concussion!"
"Only a mild concussion," I corrected, before adding, "and I'm alive, aren't I?"
He shook his head, annoyed. "You have to be careful, you idiot. Your life isn't worth some stupid jewellery. Why were you even in there? We don't need that stuff here."
Feeling bad for worrying him, I said, "Alicia wanted to look and I just– I thought it would be nice, y'know? Make things feel a little normal again."
He sighed, his head in his hands. I frowned slightly, the guilt sinking in.
"Is she still mad? I asked, hoping she'd have cooled off by now.
"Uh-huh."
I chewed on my lip nervously, wondering how I'd get her to forgive me. Nick left to go and get Madison, who wanted to be called in when I'd woken up, and I hoped Alicia would stop by, too. But the blonde turned up alone.
"Madison," I breathed out, still happy to see her, even though she didn't look impressed.
"I'll save you the lecture," she began, taking my hand in hers, "but it was pretty stupid."
"I know," I agreed tiredly. "I'm sorry."
To my relief, she really did save me the lecture, instead squeezing my hand comfortingly.
"Is, er, is Alicia coming?" I asked lamely. "I wanted to apologise to her."
Madison smiled apologetically. "Maybe not so soon, hon. She's really angry."
"Right. I guess that's fair."
Tumblr media
I had hoped to see Alicia over the next day when I was kept in the medbay, expecting her to at least visit me, even if it was just to shout at me, but she didn't. It stung a little, but I also felt horrible knowing that I'd pissed her off this much.
When I was finally allowed to leave, with the aid of some crutches, the first place I headed was to Alicia's quarters to pay her a visit. I knocked on nervously, anticipating what could happen, and then the door opened to reveal the Clark girl.
"Hey, remember me?" I joked, hoping to lighten the mood, and she simply rolled her eyes, about to close the door in my face.
"Wait!" I said, sticking my crutch in the way, and she stopped.
"What?" she snapped, green eyes darkened with fury.
Losing my humour, I met her eyes. "You didn't visit me."
"If I did, I would have strangled you."
Licking my lips at the awkwardness, I said, "Alicia, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to worry you. But I thought you'd at least–"
I went quiet. Well, I thought she'd at least visit. She'd never been this mad before, not at me and not for something so minor. And the longer I fell quiet, the more her jaw clenched and she stared daggers into my eyes.
"Can we please just forget it happened?" I asked instead. "Move on?"
Without another second wasted, she said, "Whatever," then closed the door in my face.
I stared at it in awe, stunned at her behaviour. How could she still be mad at me, even after apologising?
Unsure what else to do, I left her place to go and sulk in the stadium's stands which were empty. What else could I possibly do for Alicia to forgive me? I understood I worried her, but I literally apologised and I was okay! She'd never been so mad at me before...
As I got lost in thoughts of the green-eyed girl, sulking and thinking and wondering what I could do, I almost missed Madison finding me and joining my side.
"You seen Alicia?" she asked, knowing I was going to talk to her daughter earlier. "How'd it go?"
I shook my head, still surprised at what occurred. "Not good at all. She's still so angry and I just– I don't understand why! It was an accident, Madison, and I apologised!"
Madison glanced at me from the seat beside me, quirking a brow, and I was even more confused.
"What?" I asked. What had I missed?
She sighed heavily, earning my attention, and looked me in the eyes. "Y/N, hon, I'm saying this with love," she started, "but you're so blind to what's in front of you."
Blind, and apparently lost too since I had no idea what she was talking about. She must have noticed, as she rolled her eyes with impatience.
"Alicia cares about you," she said in a knowing tone.
"I know that."
Closing her eyes with pursed lips, she waited a moment before clarifying, "No. She's in love with you, Y/N. She's been in love with you since you were kids. Of course she's angry, but she's mostly hurt. You almost died over something so stupid! Why else would she be like this?"
My jaw dropped as I stammered to find words. "What? She– what– how do you know that?"
Alicia being in love with me? There was no way that could be true. I refused to believe it.
"I know my daughter, very well," she said like it was obvious, before resting a hand on my knee. "And I know you, too. You feel the same, Y/N."
Immediately growing flustered, I avoided her eyes. She knew? How the hell did she know? I was certain I'd hidden it well. I couldn't have hidden it better!
Oh, God, she knew I was in love with her daughter.
"Hey, don't be embarrassed," she suddenly said with a quiet laugh, "it's okay!"
Horrified, I swallowed hard, knowing my face felt as hot as the sun right now. What did I even respond to that?
"I did think you'd have said something to her by now," Madison added. "It's a lot, I know. But, maybe, it's time you came clean and reassured her. Because, quite frankly, I'm sick of watching you both not do anything about it."
If Madison was right about me being in love with Alicia, then surely she was right about Alicia being in love with me? And if that were true, then... holy shit. I guess it made sense why Alicia was so angry at me – or upset, I now realised.
I couldn't find words, not when the confession was shocking me to the core, so I simply nodded slowly in response. At least Madison seemed to be okay with it, the whole me liking her daughter thing.
"You're gonna be fine," she assured me with a small smile, before squeezing my knee and getting up. "I'll leave you to it. Remember to rest your leg, Y/N."
Tumblr media
It took me a while to accept the fact that maybe Madison had been right, myself reliving every interaction I'd ever had with Alicia since I met her, overanalysing and trying to gauge whether she may have cared about me like I did her. Two days to be exact, in which Alicia avoided me completely.
When I finally decided enough was enough, I went straight over to visit Alicia with the hope of finding enough courage to either tell her how I felt or get it out of her first. Clearly I was too scared to tell her myself all these years, so I wasn't too convinced it would go to plan.
I found her at her quarters again, an old dugout converted into a room for her, and knocked on as confidently as I could muster. As soon as she opened the door, her expression hardened and she narrowed her eyes at me.
"I just wanna talk," I said before she could think to close the door on me.
"About what exactly?" she asked, her anger still as fresh as it was from two days ago. "About how idiotic you were trying to get a ring?"
Remaining calm, I said, "I just wanted to get it for you, Alicia. Give you a sense of normalcy again and–"
"I didn't ask you to do that!" she exclaimed, before scoffing at me angrily and walking further into her room.
Reluctantly, I stepped inside and tried to defend myself. "I know you didn't, but I wanted to! You seemed to like the display and I thought–"
"I don't give a fuck about a ring!" she shouted, glaring at me, and this time her hurt was present. "It wasn't worth dying over! I care if you're fucking alive! That you're safe!"
The guilt returning yet again, I nodded in understanding. "You're right. I get it. I'm sorry, Alicia."
"No, you don't get it," she retorted, frustration being replaced with worry. "D'you know how– how scary it was watching you back there? Hearing you scream and then seeing you– fuck! Seeing you look so– so fragile? And now look at you! Walking on fucking crutches!"
I chose to stay quiet as she continued to rant, my guilt deepening as she spoke her fears aloud.
"You can be so careless sometimes!" she added, a frown on her lips and glassy eyes darting between mine. "Though, I suppose that's why you're Nick's friend, right? He does the same fucking thing!"
"I won't do it again," I promised her. "I'll think next time."
"Yeah, I hope so," she said bitterly, crossing her arms.
I watched her closely, searching for a semblance of what I hoped to find. "I didn't think you cared so much."
My nerves were creeping in and I so desperately hoped she'd admit her feelings first, so I wouldn't have to.
She looked at me, face flushing shyly before looking away and playing it cool. "Of course I do. You're family. And Nick's best friend."
I waited momentarily, wanting her to say it, but she didn't. And I foolishly couldn't. I was too scared to put myself out there, even after all this time.
Unable to hide my frown, I nodded. "That it?"
She met my gaze, confused. "What else?"
Now it was my turn to grow shy and embarrassed, and I looked away, feeling a little humiliated. It wasn't Alicia's fault at all – she couldn't help how I felt. And maybe Madison had gotten it wrong.
Changing the subject, I shook my head. "Never mind. Sorry again."
I turned to leave, feeling her eyes bore a hole in my back, and somehow I knew that when I walked out of this door, there would never be another chance to tell her how I felt. After all this time, even if she didn't feel the same, maybe I should have finally come clean like Madison said. If I did and we could get over it, maybe I could finally move on?
"Actually no," I said, suddenly feeling an adrenaline rush as I turned around to face her. "I'm not sorry."
She quirked a brow. "Excuse me?"
I sucked up a breath and held her gaze, despite a part of me wanting to leave and never speak again. "I'm not sorry. Not for trying to get that ring. For worrying you, yes, but not the ring."
"Wow, thanks," she said sarcastically, but I didn't let it get to me.
"You wanted that ring," I reminded her. "You looked in that store window and you saw something normal and I wanted to give it to you. I'm not sorry about that. I went in there for you and, yes, you didn't ask me to, Alicia, but you didn't need to. I wanted to! To make you happy, I would do anything. I thought you knew that by now, but maybe I didn't make it clear enough."
Her expression softened as her eyes widened slightly. "What are you saying?"
Now or never, right?
"I'm in love with you, Alicia," I stated with all the confidence left in me. "I have been, since we were kids and since I was old enough to know what love is. And I've been terrified to admit it aloud, especially to you, but I can't keep it to myself anymore. I didn't mean to worry your or upset you or make you so angry, you have to know that."
She didn't say anything as she seemed to digest my confession, and the longer she stared at me without any indication to how she was feeling, the more stupid I felt.
"I can get over it," I told her with a small smile, avoiding her eyes. "You don't need to take this on or anything. I just– I had to tell you. If I've made you uncomfortable, I'm sorry and you have every right to stop talking to me."
"No, just–" she started, and I held my breath as she struggled to speak. "You're in love with me?"
"...Yes."
"I'm in love with you," she admitted, and I could have sworn I misheard until she repeated, "I'm in love with you, too."
"You're in love with me."
"I am," she said softly. "Why didn't you– why didn't you say anything all this time?"
I raised my brows. "Me? Why didn't you?"
She scoffed. "Seriously? I'm your best friend's little sister. How was I supposed to?"
"Exactly," I agreed. "You're my best friend's little sister. How was I supposed to?"
Her eyes flickered between mine. "Like you did just now."
My heart was thumping so loudly I was surprised she couldn't hear it in the quiet of her room. Now what?
"I care about you a lot because I'm in love with you," she said, stepping forward and shakily lifting her hand to cup my cheek. "I don't want you doing stupid stuff that could get you killed. Especially not for me."
"If I had known it was dangerous, I wouldn't have gone in," I told her seriously. "I promised you I wouldn't leave you. I meant it."
She tensed her jaw as she lowered her hand, resting it on my shoulder. "I'm sorry I got so angry and upset. I shouldn't have reacted like that, especially after you got hurt. I just– seeing you like that and knowing it could have been worse, it just– It was frustrating. And I didn't know how to express that, not without revealing how I felt about you."
"Yeah, I kinda thought I fucked everything up when you didn't stop by for a visit," I said, in an attempt to lighten the mood, and it seemed to work as she cracked a small smile.
"I should have visited," she said apologetically. "And I should have told you how I felt."
"Me too," I said gently.
She looked at her hand on my shoulder, avoiding my eyes, and I couldn't stop staring at her as she did. She felt the same way. How could that be possible? How had I missed it?
"Now what?" she murmured.
"Now..." I paused, making her eyes flicker to mine momentarily, hopefully. And, still on a high from being able to admit the truth, I asked, "Can I kiss you?"
She pressed her lips together, nodding slowly, and then I leaned in before I could stop myself, wrapping my crutch and arm around her waist to pull her even close. Her figure fit perfectly in my arms; her lips were as soft as I could have imagined; her fingers left goosebumps across my skin where she caressed my cheek. This was all I'd ever wanted, and now I finally had it.
We pulled apart for air and I was afraid that if I opened my eyes, she wouldn't be there and I'd have imagined it all.
"Y/N?"
I opened my eyes, only to be submerged in golden-green. "Yeah?"
"Thank you."
I lifted an eyebrow. "For?"
She didn't falter as she said, "For being here for me all this time. For not leaving. For keeping your promise."
I stroked her waist with my thumb subconsciously, eyes flickering all over her face, committing it to memory, and then a smile curled on my lips. "You don't know how much you've done for me, do you? We're even, Alicia."
She began to smile too, making butterflies blossom in my chest, and then just like that, she pressed her lips to mine and I was in heaven once more.
Looks like Madison was right after all.

We're A Family Part 16 (Steddie X You)
Tumblr media
A/N: This is very much a Steddie chapter and I love it so much. This is probably going to be one of if not my favorite chapter in this series. I wanted them to really fully embrace that lovers aspect of their relationship and totally be ok loving each other as much as they love the reader.
Warnings: Parent Dads Steddie and Mama Reader, mentions of trying and struggling to get pregnant, SMUT (between the boys <3), lots of fluff, Steve VERY BRIEFLY mentions fears of telling his family they are trying to have another kid. I think that's it. Genuinely just a lot of sweetness in this one.
Word Count: 3116
“Fuck me…”, Steve pants as he throws his arm over his eyes. 
“I just did.”, you giggle as you roll over to face him. 
You and Steve had been spending a lot more time alone in the pursuit of baby number three. Of course, Eddie was still very much involved in sexy time but he insisted if there was a point where he could take the kids out of the house, you three should take the opportunity. 
It had been a few months and still no positive test. The doctor insisted you both were healthy and fine, you just “need to keep trying.” The metalhead did everything he could to help. 
“Eddie, baby, why are you smoking so far away? You can sit next to me on the porch here.”
“I know, sweetheart, but I read online that smoke can affect you when you’re trying to get pregnant.”
“You were smoking around me constantly before and we still got Ro.”, you laugh.
“Baby, I can do the dishes. You’ve been at work all day.”
“Y/N, it’s fine. You and Steve just relax, ok? I got this. Wayne said stress sometimes can make it harder for you two to…you know…”
“Hey, princess! I went grocery shopping today so you don’t have to on Friday after work. I also got some more fruit. I read this book at work that was saying it helps with trying to have a baby.”
Steve grins as he turns to face you as well. “Are you okay?”
“Yeah, I just…I don’t know.”
“Honey, it’s ok. It will happen when it happens.”
“I just feel bad. I feel like Eddie is stressing himself out taking care of us.”
“He has been going a little overboard.”, he chuckles. “Oh, I know that look. Dylan makes that face when he’s planning something. What do you have in mind, baby?”
***
“Mom, this place is amazing.”, Dylan’s jaw drops as he looks around the house the realtor brought you guys to. 
It was a rustic style home that definitely had that country feel. The entryway lead into the kitchen on the right and gigantic living room straight ahead with a gorgeous stone fireplace. The back door was mostly clear glass so you would be able to see outside when the kids were playing. 
“It’s beautiful. It’s not too far from Wayne either and it’s right next to the lake.”, Eddie grins, running his fingers along the countertop in the kitchen. 
“It’s also within your budget and has those five rooms you had originally mentioned, ma’am.”, the man showing you the house guides you around, pointing out the two bedrooms downstairs and the backyard that is much bigger than your current one. 
Steve pats Aurora’s back as she continues to sleep, drooling on the shoulder of his jacket.
“Do you mind if we talk for a minute?”
“No, ma’am. Take all the time you need.”
The four of you lean against the counters in the kitchen as you wait for him to leave. “What do you think, kid?”, Eddie asks.
“I like it a lot especially since it’s by the water.”
“It’s closer to my store but it’s a bit of a drive for the three of you every morning.”
You chew on your nail as you think. “Just an extra 10minutes which isn’t too bad. What do you think, Stevie?”
“I’m fine with the drive. We may need to update some things though like childproofing the locks and stuff. Other than that, I think it’s perfect.”
“Alright, gentlemen. Let’s fill out some applications and pray.”
##############
“Hang on, Ed.” Steve reaches over and grabs Eddie’s arm as he begins to get out of the car. “You guys have fun! “
“Bye dada an daddy.”, Aurora waves.
They wave back with a smile, waiting for you three to get inside before the man drives away. 
“What’s going on?”, the metalhead asks. 
“Y/N and I thought you needed some time away from the kids and the house so we’re going on a date.”
“Did Y/N not want to come? She should have a night out to.”
“Eddie!”, Steve chuckles. “She’s fine, trust me. Let me show you what a date night with Steve Harrington is like.”
“Oh, someone’s cocky. Alright, Harrington. Wine and dine me.”, he grins. 
***
“Mom? Are you okay?”
“Yeah, can you just…hold my hand. I’m so nervous.” Dylan smiles as he sits on the floor beside you and takes your hand in his. “This anticipation is killing me. With you and Ro it was just like ‘Hey, there’s a baby in there.’ I’ve never really had to utilize a pregnancy test like this.”
“With Aurora, you thought you were sick. Did you think the same thing before you found out about me?”
“Naw, with you, I was doing a routine exam and they had to make sure I wasn’t pregnant.”
The timer on your phone beeps and you sigh before reaching onto the bedside table where the test had been sitting. As you read the results, uncontrollable tears begin cascading down your face while Dylan wraps his arms around your neck.
***
“That band was fucking awesome!”, Eddie exclaims as the other man grins at his excitement. 
Steve decided to take the metalhead to new bar just outside of the city limits. He knew how much he loved music, thinking it would make him happy to see some bands play while they drank and talked. 
“It’s been a while since you guys have been on a stage like that. Do you miss it?”
The man shakes his head as he takes a swing of the beer from his glass. “I mean I still play with the guys but that rush that I used to get being on stage…no it’ll sound stupid.”
“No, come on. Tell me.”
“That rush I used to get…I get now with the kids. Dude, seeing Dylan on his first date and watching Ro learn do those vocabulary card things you got her… that makes me happy. I can’t wait to see what this new baby will be like.” Eddie notices Steve’s posture stiffen and he promptly reaches out to rub his shoulder. “Hey, it’ll happen, man.”
“I know. I hate seeing that sad look on her face with every period or failed test.”
“The doctor said everything was good though, right?”
“Yeah, just have to keep trying.”, he sighs before glancing towards Eddie. “I haven’t told my mom yet that Y/N and I are…you know. I’m afraid she’ll tell my dad and I have no idea what he’ll do.”
“Steve, babe, fuck your dad. He can try whatever he wants but he’s not breaking up our family.”
The man exhales a cute, breathy chuckle. “Did you just call me babe?”
The metalhead grins even wider as he leans closer to him. “Depends. Did you like it?”
#######
 The bathroom door to the men’s room hurtles open as Steve pushes Eddie through it with his lips on his and quickly locks it behind him. The metalhead groans, shoving his back against it and begins fumbling with the other boy’s belt before lowering himself to his knees. 
“Fuck.”, Steve mewls as the man below him takes his already leaking cock into his mouth. Eddie knows exactly how his husband likes it, you showed him well, and he revels in the sounds he pulls from him as he takes him deeper till he’s gagging around him. 
It’s not just the action itself but his small, tender touches that have Steve moaning. While Eddie bobs his head, his hands roam the other man’s body, tracing the back of his thighs, up to his stomach. Steve can’t help but wonder how he would react if he spoke to Eddie the same way he talked to you. 
“That’s it, Eddie, baby, fuck. Just like that.” His eyes fluttered closed as he tangled his fingers into his hair, guiding him as the metalhead’s rhythm picked up. Steve couldn’t hold out any longer, he needed him now. 
He tugged on the boy’s hair and he took the hint, rising to his feet and hooking his lips to Steve’s sweet spot on his neck. Growling with desire, he lifted Eddie into his arms and placed him on the counter, aggressively yanking off his jeans. Pulling him to the edge, he lifted his leg over his shoulder and guided his cock into the man’s entrance. 
Eddie’s eyes rolled as Steve slid his hand along his stomach, slowly thrusting his hips as he relished the feeling of the man he loved.
Did he tell him that enough? I’m sure if he asked, Eddie would tell him he’s being silly and of course he does. They had gotten much closer these past few years and became more comfortable sexually but there was a level of intimacy Steve felt they still struggled with. 
“Eddie?” The man responded with a hm as he bit his lip to keep from moaning too loud. “I love you.”
He heard the change in Steve’s tone, promptly opening his eyes to scan him over. Propping himself up on one of his elbows, he reached over to caress his cheek as his thumb glided along his skin. 
“I love you to.”
“No, No. I love you.” 
Eddie blinked a few times before wrapping his hand around the man’s neck and pulling him down till he was hovering over him.
“I love you to. So fucking much, sweetheart. I-I grew up feeling like no one—mmm—no one ever really cared about me. Then I met you and Y/N.” He craned his neck to capture the man’s lips. “Steve, you can talk to me like you talk to her. I like it.”
“Yeah? So, you would like hearing—fuck—hearing me say things about how good you fucking feel, baby, squeezing my cock?”
“Jesus.” Eddie laid back flat against the counter as his hand reached down to stroke his own dick. 
“That’s it, Eddie. Play with yourself while I fuck you. God, you look so fucking sexy right now.”
“Ha-harder, Steve. Please.”, he moans. 
“Is that what you need, honey? I can do that.”
As he rolled his hips into his roughly, the metalhead covered his mouth with his palm, suffocating the urge to scream at the pleasure that ran through his body. His back arched as his abs tensed as rope after rope of spend hit the skin on his stomach. 
“Fuck me.”, Steve groaned as he pounded into the man faster chasing his high. After a few more rough thrusts, Eddie felt him cum inside of him, look up to watch his eyebrows scrunch together and his neck muscles tighten as he did. 
Gradually, he pulled his softening cock out of him and reached over to grab some napkins to help clean Eddie up.
“I’m sorry if these are rough. They aren’t like our towels at home.”, Steve sighs as he tosses the paper in the trash. As he begins pulling up his pants, Eddie abruptly tackles him into a hug, squeezing tightly as he lays his cheek on his chest. “Is everything ok?”
The metalhead nods. “Y/N does this to us after and now I kind of see why. I feel…closer to you if that’s even fucking possible.”
Steve softly laughs as he wraps his own arms around him, pressing him tighter to his chest with his palm. “Yeah, baby. I know what you mean.”
***
As they walk into the front door of the house, they are surprised to find it completely silent. Steve quietly searches the downstairs, turning off lights while Eddie locks everything down. 
When the enter their bedroom, they grin finding everyone asleep in your bed. Dylan was on his side with you behind him, arm draped over him and Aurora who was snuggled up in her brother’s chest as she sucked her thumb. 
Both men quickly changed out of their cigarette, bar smelling clothes and crawled into bed; Steve behind you and Eddie behind his daughter. 
***
“Daddy.”, Ro coos as she lightly taps her father’s face with her palm. “Daddy. Wake up.”
“Ro. Aurora.”, you whispered as you tapped her side. “Leave daddy alone and let him sleep, sweetie.”
“Mama, no. Daddy wake up.”
Dylan groaned in his sleep as he rolled over to face you. 
“Why? Why do you need daddy to wake up?”
She giggles as she falls to her knees and pushes at his arm. “Daddy, I miss you.”
“Well, that’s adorable.”, Steve sighs.
“Dada help Rara.”
“What do you need help with honey? Waking up daddy?” He lazily lifts his arm towards Eddie, trying to reach him with his hand. “Op, he’s too far. I can’t.”
“Dada!”, she growls and you feel the man smile in your shoulder. Aurora begins pushing at him again until he rolls onto his back and playfully pushes her aside with his hand. 
“I think I chose the wrong side to sleep on.”, he grumbles. 
“Hun-gee.”, she points to her stomach. 
“Aurora Munson- Harrington, you did not just wake him up for that!”, you giggle as she beams at you. 
“Whoosh!”, she exclaims as she pretends to throw something in the air. 
“She wants dad’s pancakes.”, Dylan yawns as he stretches. “Which actually sounds good.”
“Can you take her downstairs and put on a cartoon for her, weirdo? Give them some time to wake up.”
Your son nods as he slides off the bed, coming around to pick up his sister and bring her downstairs. Both men immediately scoot closer to you, pulling you into their embrace. 
“Did you two have fun last night?”
“Mhmm. He took me on a ‘Steve Harrington style date’.”
“Oh, you lucky man.”
“Did you three do anything exciting last night?”, Steve asked. 
“We did. Watched a few movies and ordered a pizza. I did go to the store real quick and bought you guys something. Eddie, baby, can you look into your nightstand and grab the thing on top for me?”
He sleepily nodded as he shifted his body to grab what you were asking for. His eyes suddenly snapped open as he realized what he was holding. 
“Harrington. STEVE!”, Eddie shouted startling the other man as he sat up making you laugh harder. The metalhead handed him the pregnancy test and he promptly sat up straighter. 
“Is this…? Are we…? Is this real? You’re really pregnant?”
Your grin grows as you nod. Steve tackles his arms around you, kissing every part of your face his lips can reach. As soon as you’re free, Eddie does the same much more gently. 
“Oh my god. I’m so happy.” Steve lays back down with a big smile on his face as he exhales. 
“You see what I mean, babe? Same kind of rush but better.”, the metalhead grins as he winks at the other man whose own smile grows. 
“Oh wow.” Both men look at you with confused looks as you smirk. “Ok, I don’t know what you two did last night but that energy is back.”
“Are you drunk? You shouldn’t be drinking if you’re pregnant.”
You giggle as you slap Eddie’s shoulder. “No, no, no. Nothing wrong with it. I kind of missed that…electricity…between the two of you. Maybe you both need a date night more often.”
After kissing them both again, you climb out of bed and head for the bedroom door, pausing as you turn to face them. 
“I hope you know you both can be intimate without me. I genuinely don’t mind. I know you both love me just as much as you love each other.” You flash them one final smile before going down the stairs. 
“We don’t deserve her.”, Steve sighs pleasantly as he watches you leave. 
“Yeah, we do. Charlie didn’t deserve her. Fucking idiot.” Eddie lays back down, scooting closer to the other boy. “I still think about the first time I talked to her on the stairs outside of the apartment. He was making her feel bad about him not coming to see Dylan. When I opened the door to sit outside and smoke, I just wanted to protect her. I wanted to drive to wherever he was and kick his ass.”
Steve slid a little closer to him till the back of his hand was barely touching his. 
“I always think about that night at The Hideout when we surprised her while she was on her date and you played that one AC/DC song for her. When she ran out of that bar…I can’t tell you how happy it made me especially after being away from her for so long. She fucking flew into our arms and I never wanted to let her go.”
“We kind of didn’t.”, he chuckled. 
Their fingers intertwined as they turned to smile at each other. Eddie leaned over and brought his lips to his, both men laughing as they pulled away when they heard loud noises downstairs.
“Hey! Are you trying to make everyone lose their hearing?! Turn the tv down!”, Steve hollered over dramatically as they both entered the area. 
“Told you.”, you sang from the sink as you washed some dishes you knew the metalhead would need.
Eddie wrapped his arms around you from behind, pulling you to his chest as he leaned his head on your shoulder.
“Taking more than her share, had me fighting for air She told me to come, but I was already there 'Cause the walls start shaking, the Earth was quaking My mind was aching and we were making it
And you shook me all night long Yeah, you shook me all night long.”
You grinned at the memory as he sang softly in your ear. Steve turned off the water before circling his arms around you both, kissing the top of your head. The sound of tiny feet slapping into the kitchen had you laughing in his chest. 
“Daddy! Rara and Din hun-gee!”
“Yeah, yeah, yeah ya little butt. Come here.” She giggled as she ran into his arms and he lifted her onto the counter. “You’re going to help me?” Aurora nodded her little head as she waited for instructions. 
Steve lifted you into his arms and carried you to the living room, placing you gently on the sofa. 
“Did you tell them?”
“I did. They’re pretty excited.”
“I am to.”, Dylan smiled. “Did you guys want to play a game while we wait for breakfast? Especially since now she’s distracted.”
“I’m not really good with games.”
“Uh huh. Making excuses already, Steve Harrington. That’s ok. Dylan and I already know you suck.”
He jokingly scowls in your direction as your son hands you both a controller. 
“What are we playing?”

Thank you for the ask, now it's my turn 💘 Nozel x Vanessa from Black Clover? (I know, I'm biased^^') Elfman x Evergreen from Fairy Tail? Isogai x Meg from Assassination Classroom? Mustang x Hawkeye from Fullmetal Alchemist? Sorry, might have went a bit overboard^^'
Hello there friend! Thank you so much for playing and for asking about such fun pairings! 💕 I don't think I've ever been asked anything about Assassination Classroom or Fullmetal Alchemist before so I am so excited for this ^^
(Warnings: I do talk about a Fullemetal Alchemist spoiler, but I tried to steer clear of spoilers when discussing the other pairings. I'm putting it all under the cut just to be safe though).
Nozel x Vanessa
I'm honestly kind of neutral to this ship. I don't have anything against it, but it's probably something I wouldn't have thought about if I wasn't asked about it or if it wasn't requested from me. Since they haven't interacted in the canon, it's hard for me to imagine what their dynamic would be like and how they would get together, so I wouldn't say it makes sense to me to me personally and it doesn't really compel me since I ship both Vanessa and Nozel more with other characters (and some friends' OCs) than with each other.
That said, I have read some really enjoyable fanfictions about them. Yours especially are really lovely and really helped me to see & understand this pairing so thank you so much for that and for sharing your passion for them. 💕I have always been really impressed by this pairing's fans who I have a lot of respect for. I've even written about them a little myself, but only on request since I don't think it's a dynamic I'd really write about much on my own just given my personal preferences and how I personally prefer to imagine and think about the characters. But that's just me and my personal opinions. I can definitely see the appeal of the ship and think it could be a fun pairing--it's just not my personal favorite.
Elfman x Evergreen
I LOVE THEM SO MUCH! They're without a doubt in my top 3 favorite ships in Fairy Tail, and I was so excited every single time they appeared and interacted with each other. Their banter is just glorious. I have rambled about them in the past, so I apologize for repeating myself but these two are just that perfect balance between hilarious and adorable, in my opinion. On a certain level they both have such big personalities that are so wildly different from each other that it's almost goofy to think of them actually working out in relationship, but they complement each other so perfectly and have such a strong foundation of trust and mutual respect which I honestly wasn't expecting at first but was wonderful and delightful. I think the story does such a good job of showing us that they protect each other, sacrifice for each other, and want the best for each other, and ultimately they care about each other deeply, even if they don't always show it, so I do feel like they make a lot of sense as a pairing and, needless to say, I find it extremely compelling.
Isogai x Meg
I'll be honest and tell you that it has been quite a few years since I have read Assassination Classroom and seen the anime, and I forgot about these characters and this pairing and had to google it 😅 (I'm so sorry 🙈). As soon as I saw them though, I had this visceral, squealy "Oh my gosh! It's THEM!!" reaction and remembered being very invested in their relationship. Friends to lovers is probably my favorite ship trope, and (from what I remember) Isogai and Meg work so well together and have so much genuine admiration and respect for each other. Also there is just something so special and so compelling about inter-student-governmental relationships to me (A/N: Total tangent here but I think it goes back to one of my favorite childhood cartoons where there's an episode where these friends were pitted against each other in this really intense campaign to become class president, and (spoilers but) she won by one vote, specifically him voting for her because she had actual principles and ideas for improving the school but he just wanted to win. And oh my gosh I ship that to this day, and I think it has given me this intense affinity for these inter-student governmental relationships. Don't even get me started about my favorite pairings from Fruits Basket and Kaguya-Sama Love Is War that fit in this category. I just really, really, really enjoy this trope). Anyways...my goodness they are so cute! All it took was a short scroll through google images and a brief readthrough of their pages on the wiki to make me remember how much I really adored these two and their dynamic and relationship. I can vividly remember being so excited in the Valentine's Day episode when she gave him that chocolate. ^^
I think Isogai and Meg are really strong characters on their own also, which I really like and appreciate. Isogai is so hardworking, caring, and sincere, and Meg is so strong but so kind as well. And it's so lovely to see the two of them coming together and combining their strengths to become real leaders in their class and build each other and the other characters up. In summary, yes I think this pairing makes a lot of sense, and it definitely compels me personally. Thank you so much for reminding me about them and how much I loved them! 💖 I really want to rewatch Assassination Classroom now...
Roy Mustang x Riza Hawkeye
I may have actually squealed when I saw that you had asked about this pairing because my gosh I have no words for how invested I am in this relationship. If I felt I could write either of them and their dynamic with any semblance of justice, I would probably be writing fics about them non-stop, but I have never trusted myself to be able to do that, so they just live rent-free in my mind in incredibly convoluted scenarios about how they would somehow repeal or circumvent the non-fraternization law in order to get married (A/N: my favorite theory is that they throw another inter-military couple under the bus and use them as the poster-children of repealing the law, turning their wedding into an international spectacle before ultimately taking advantage of the repeal of the law to quietly marry themselves...but I digress).
Anyways, I don't even know what I can possibly say about this ship. Their bond with each other is so deep and so strong that even if they never get together in a romantic sense (which I would honestly be okay with as long as they just always stay together in a platonic sense. I don't need them to kiss...though that would nice...), I honestly just can't imagine either of them with anyone else romantically (which is very rare for me to say about a pairing since I tend to multi-ship). They are one of my favorite parts of the series every time I reread the manga or watch Brotherhood and that scene in the Third Laboratory where Riza thinks he is dead and just sort of breaks, gets me every single time. Even when I know it's coming, I still get so emotional about it. Her devotion and loyalty to him is unbelievable but so compelling, and the best part is that he is equally as devoted and loyal to her as well.
I can't fault this pairing at all. I think they're perfect for each other, and I'm so excited I got to ramble about them a little bit so thank you so much for that (also this my sister's ultimate OTP of all time and I can't wait to teasingly brag to her that someone actually wrote into my blog to ask me to talk about them lol). ^^

the grad student (new chapter)
I got off the scale. Only fifteen pounds to lose. I can do this. I just have to control myself. It will be fine. Besides I can just go eat her out instead of binging. No more being. Huge piggy eating himself into a stupor. 
“Hey man you want some breakfast?”
I looked at the huge spread they had. Greasy, cheesy, sugary, fatty, rich delicious food. Hash browns, pancakes, syrup, eggs, bacon, sausage, donuts. I couldn’t eat any of it without going overboard. 
“No im good. I need to start watching my weight.”
“Your loss. You are really missing out.”
One of my roommates was on a bulk. The other was just starting to fill out.
“You sure we can’t tempt you?”
Danny’s pants were looking a bit snug lately. I mean that wasn’t saying much. He was pretty skinny. I looked again at the food. I could feel myself starting to drool. No no I can’t possibly be this weak.
“No I gotta stick to my diet.”
“Mmm more for us then.”
I bit my lip in envy as I watched Danny plow his way through his food. That should be me. I went back to my room to work on a paper. I could still smell the food. I pictured myself beached on the couch with at least a third of all that food in my gut. Laying there In anguish lamenting over my poor judgement my belly hanging out. I’d be groaning in pain but I’d be the one to finish the donuts. I’d lay there with the box on my stomach pushing them down even when I could no longer taste them. I’d be in hog heaven. Just a total fatty eating his way out of his clothes.
Fuck I’m so horny. I gripped my leftover pudge. Ugh I want this plump and full and my jeans tight. I remembered the bloating. So I got my water and went to work. It wasn’t enough. No matter how much I drank it wasn’t enough to satisfy that itch. 
“Hey guys is there any….?”
“Urrrrrrrrrrrp ooooooof.”
Danny was leaned back in his chair with his belt unbuckled and his jeans unbuttoned and unzipped. He was clutching his belly and groaning.
“Did you eat all that?”
“Urrrrrp no of course not.”
He was definitely looking a bit softer lately. 
“Where is Charlie?”
“I don’t know probably taking a nap. He said he would head to the gym again at noon.”
There wasn’t a scrap of food left. 
“Damn.”
“Urrrrrp you are the one who said no.”
“Very true.”
I cursed myself for trying to follow my diet. 
………….
“Hmmm you still got some left to lose.”
I estimated it being about ten pounds left. Just enough to sink my hands into. He still didn’t really have much definition. 
“Ugh I know. Also I thought I would be getting some muscle by now.”
“You have to actually be working out to get muscle.”
I poked his tummy.
“I am.”
“At the gym?”
“I mean I walk.”
“Nah you gotta lift.”
“Ugh but that’s so boring.”
“Too bad. I’m a chest and arms girl.”
“Yeah and a belly girl.”
“Sometimes. But you were losing stamina.”
It was a bit hot when he was all out of shape but not fun with sex.
“True. But you liked seeing me all helpless and greedy.”
He dragged me toward him.
“What’s got into you?”
“I’m so hungry and horny. My roommates had this crazy breakfast this morning and I had to just watch them devour it and stick to my diet.”
“Awww poor piggy.”
“God believe me all I wanted to do was eat myself into a groaning aching mess and lament over my poor judgement. My stuffed belly spilling out my jeans never to be buttoned again.”
“Fuck!”
“What you like that?”
“You know I do. Ugh why do you have to mess with me?”
He started to kiss down my body. 
“I was jealous seeing my roommates starter belly bulging with so much delicious greasy food.”
“Oh fuck why were you jealous?”
He was teasing me like crazy.
“Because I wanted to plump this pudge up.”
He brought my hand to his belly. I squeezed it.
“Yeah you wanted to fatten yourself up?”
He was hovering over my panties now.
“I wanted to feel heavy and greedy and pathetically full. Out of control.”
“Fuck that’s hot.”
“I came here because I needed to eat your pussy in order to stick to my diet.”
He nuzzled my crotch.
“Fuck!”
He was relentless. 
“You taste like honey.”
“Fuck!”
“And you know I have a horrible sweet tooth.”
I couldn’t even formulate a response I just gripped his pudge tightly as he ate me out.

sneaky
Tumblr media
pairing; idol lee heeseung x gn idol reader <3 (in the same group)
genre; throwing up glitter (fluff)
prompt; heeseung decided to wake you up since he just couldn’t fall asleep that night.
lowercase intended and not proof read <3 rushed
————————————————————————————
you and heeseung have always been really close - ever since i-land. never an awkward moment between the two of you and you were always able to laugh and have fun no matter the circumstances ,,it was a friday - so you could finally sleep in after a long hard week. but you were a bit of a night owl so you were just scrolling through tiktok with your airpods in to not disturb the other sleeping figures in your shared room.
heeseung had other ideas - he kept tossing and turning and not even his phone or his endless games of league could cure his boredom. your room was only across the hall from his so he could tip toe to your room without making a sound, not waking up jake, the lightest sleeper in the team who just happened to be your roommate >< so he did, he cutely tip toed across the hall to your room - slowly opening the door so he wouldn’t be noticed but since you had your airpods in - you didn’t notice nor hear him.
“hey y/n !” his whisper shouts that only he could hear repeating over and over - clicking his tongue after seconds of him just standing in the doorway trying to get your attention , he made his way over to you lightly tapping your shoulder which made you jump out of your skin - “hee ?? what are you doing ? you scared me so much~” dragging out the ‘much’ and fake crying while lightly punching his shoulder - he giggled : “sorry - flashing an apologetic smile - i was wondering if you wanted to go get some snacks or something?” he could basically see your eyes shimmer.
“of course ! you don’t even need to ask me” you whisper shouted and swung your legs to the end of the bed - following his broad shoulders to the door , stopping at jakes heightened snores and noises and giggling to yourselves .
you two could not stop laughing - really , you were a mess . your knees were buckling and cheeks were puffed up in attempts to stop your laughing from pouring out and even a glance at each other would probably make you fall to the floor. that’s what you get for being so close <3
after you put your sliders on (with socks ofc. we don’t wanna see those grippers) and got out the door, you intertwined your hands with his and swung your hands with the rhythm of your walking - turning corners to find a 24/7 open store and just talking. (it’s like 2am or something pls) until you finally came across a 7-11 - your heads turning to look at each other and smiling while picking up the pace in the direction of the store.
the bell dingle of the door opening echoed around the store - you both were the only ones there. dragging heeseung to every isle to get all different types of snacks you’d start to think this was your idea - “woah woah . we don’t need so much” - “yes we do ! this was your idea and im expecting a movie session when we get back mister .” he chuckled at you and ruffled your hair , agreeing that you should probably go a little overboard .
after gathering everything you both wanted , heeseung went to pay for it and it was not cheap . you could almost hear heeseung’s mouth opening in shock from behind him but he payed it anyway. - locking hands with you again and leaving the store - making your way back to the dorm , talking and giggling on your way back - this was definitely worth breaking the rules for.
stepping into the shared apartment - taking off your shoes and everything - you look up to see 2 angry men with their arms crossed staring at you both “uhm.. hello?” you spoke - “where did you go? we thought you got kidnapped!” sunoo’s eyes widening and eyebrows raising like he was about to take his slipper off and throw it at you. “when i woke up and you weren’t there, i went to heeseungs room and he wasn’t either !! “ heeseung chuckling in the back - “ sorry bro. you snore super loud tho, i’m not sure how y/n copes sharing a room with you” even before he could finish his sentence jake was already raising his fist and complaining.
“i expect a lot of that” - sunoo scoffed, pointing at the very obvious overflowing bag of junk food and drinks. jake adding in a small “me too” while crossing his arms. you agreed , and all of you ended up watching movies together <3
you ended up waking up leader yang too.. be prepared for a morning beating while doing the dishes !!

Hello so I saw that you do requests now! Could you please do a head canon of luz, amity, and hunter with a crybaby s/o? Gn pronouns
okie dokie! I’m kind of a crybaby myself so this might be easy to write!
Tumblr media
Luz:
At first, she was a bit confused about why you cry so much.
she never really saw it as a bad thing, she was just confused.
as time went on she started comforting you, she made sure that she could help you in any way that she could!
she sometimes goes overboard with being defensive so make sure you let her know because otherwise she'll probably baby you.
Tumblr media
Amity:
at first she was sort of annoyed by it.
to an extent, she did understand feeling overly sensitive so she took pity on you.
she definitely did become defensive of you because she saw your crying as a sort of weakness.
it took a while for her to understand that you weren't actually weak, just more emotional than others.
she isn't the best at comforting you but she tries her hardest!
if you're ever insecure about it she tries to find some way to make you feel better!
Tumblr media
Hunter:
he was really irritated by your crying
'why are they always crying? it's so annoying.' was what he thought.
he often picked on you about it, he really couldn't understand you or your emotions at all.
similarly to amity, he saw your crying as weakness in the worst way possible.
it took some time for him to actually try to understand you.
it wasn't until a bit after finding out about belos that he decided to try to understand you.
he loves you dearly and goes out of his way to defend you every once in a while.
i say once in a while because he wants you to be able to handle some things on your own.
overall, he can be very sweet and soft :)
authors note: this was my first request! i had a lot of fun writing it! i hope i did a decent job!

Aikatsu song reviews: Have a Dream
Tumblr media
Song
This song has a fantastical, nostalgic and dramatic atmosphere, perfectly befitting the visuals and lyrics.
Aikatsu Friends always had a tendency to go overboard with vocal filters/effects, but they went completely out of control with this song, which uses vocal filters on not just a few lines, but two entire verses (or more, if you're listening to the full version). I guess it fits with the idea that they're in space, transmitting a message from far away, and then singing freely and clearly once they reach Earth at the chorus. But regardless of that, I personally can't stand it.
The chorus, on the other hand, is marvellous. It's very simple, but it perfectly conveys everything about this song: joy, wonder, mystery, fantasy, and a little bit of sadness. The beginning of the chorus is very major-key, and combined with the bells in the background, it almost starts to sound like a Christmas song – but the lower, slightly melancholic "sugoi nante/jikuu koete"/etc parts help transform the atmosphere into something more dreamlike. There's a very careful balance of putting in enough pop elements to make the song fun and catchy, but not enough to destroy its unique and magical atmosphere.
I'm sorry, but I think the electric guitar interlude is ugly. It comes out of nowhere and completely changes the atmosphere for no reason. Its jarring randomness is only rivalled by Liella's "Wish Song". Also, it has an oddly smooth and wiggly sound that doesn't seem right for electric guitars. Take some of the distortion from the vocals and give it to the guitar instead, please.
I usually love calmer breakdown sections of songs, so it's a testament to how good this song's arrangement is that I always look forward to the drums and bells coming back for the last chorus. I also usually like irregular rhythms, so again, it's a testament to good arrangement that I usually feel slightly disappointed by the change in rhythm and wish that it was the dance beat from the first chorus again. But the change in beat gives a very 'finale'-like sound to that last chorus, and I think it was the right choice.
Vocals
I think the vocals of this song do their part: they carry the lyrics, and provide something other than the instrumentals. No more, no less. I suppose there are a few parts that could be considered slightly good or bad. Of course, I have to mention the part where they take turns singing syllables – doing that requires a high level of synchronicity and trust, and helps to highlight how well they get along as sisters. And there are some moments where their soft voices create a really chilling effect, especially when they sing together.
Lyrics
This song has some of the best (if not the very best) lyrics in all of Aikatsu Friends. They tell a story while providing vivid visuals, and the rhymes and moon puns just take it to the next level.
Choreography
Some people were saying that the ballet-inspired moves were not executed very well. And yes, the dance is definitely does not reflect that the characters are supposed to be good at ballet. But it probably looks fine to anyone who isn't a dance nerd.
Visuals
The stage design, like the song, is so mysterious and nostalgic. It brings back countless vague, unnameable memories for me.
The outfits are really special, and everyone was commenting on them when they first were revealed. I mean, I'm not sure that ram horns and hooves really fit the theme of a Princess Kaguya-inspired fairy tale, but they do give a very strong 'fantasy' feeling.
Good points: Magical yet catchy music, really good lyrics, and the bells!! Bad points: I think the things I consider bad are the things that other people like...
Rating: 8.5/10 Personal rating: If I consider the whole song and not just the parts I like then it's probably only 6.7/10, but it pains me to say that.

Will you be a Material Gworl or a Hot Girl this summer?💕
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I finally have a masterlist now! 🥳 Sorry if it's not as aesthetically pleasing as other tumblrs, I'm getting there. The next reading I assure you will be spicyyyy and long😈
1: Definitely getting hot girl but we need to talk. You could feel stuck or stagnant right now. I think some of you are very much on guard or you're very open to an unnecessary degree. Like you're letting loose without actually being emotionally vulnerable or maybe you're over-sharing and you're being too open with others. this could be watching/consuming everything around you, particularly stuff from social media. I feel you just don't care about what you see anymore. a lot of you have resigned from the position of being a leader in some way. you just want to be on your own and do your own thing without feeling pressured to. Maybe you were surrounded by people who were very accomplished or you had parents who were very pushy. You may have felt like you were the only one in your group (and this could be age, grade, workplace, whatever) that wasn't super ambitious but now you kind of just accept it for what it is I feel like a lot of you are/going to be unrestrained and sometimes it feels more like escapism than actually just doing what you want. it's giving somebody who goes had strict parents then went to college and went overboard with everything because they don't know how to like moderate themselves without feeling suffocated. Like they tasted freedom for the first time and can’t get enough
Tumblr media
2: you might not be either, its giving depressed Tumblr girl for a lot of you ☠️  People are feeling stagnant nowadays maybe my energy is projecting into the reading a little bit, but I thought this was the summer where Covid was finally starting to not get in the way of having fun for real… anyway for some reason I'm getting a lot of you are connected to pile 3 or attracted to pile 3, if you were attracted to it you should check it out, but I'm getting you might feel very limited, like in your head about something or a situation. for some of you this has to do with an idea you are very passionate about, maybe it's not going to as you an anticipated. this could be something you put a lot of time and effort into for some of you, this could even be a fantasy of a relationship with somebody who just rejected you or broke up with you/broke up with them now your dwhole world went upside down. I feel this summer you're going to be grieving a loss in some way or you're going to be very insecure in yourself. I see this might also be because of some other situation that happened fairly recently (it doesn't mean it started recently but it's just something that has been affecting you like since last month or so)
Tumblr media
3: This is probably one of the most interesting readings I've done in a very long time. Yall got three 3 major arcanas, 2 of which are in the reverse being the sun and the magician, yet the world is upright and is at the center of the reading very interesting… some of you could have been attracted to pile 2 if you were I suggest you go and read that or you just have some connection to pile 2. So you could be a material girl this summer but for almost all of you you're letting go of this energy of either being extremely optimistic and not making any sort of changes towards your goals (like just waiting for them) you might have really overestimated your work and that sounds harsh but you might have overestimated your capabilities and you might have burnt out really quickly or realized how quickly how what you did/made compared to other people. and this doesn’t mean you’re some entitled narcissistic person but it simply could’ve been you're stepping into a new industry and you thought that you were ok/met the standard. You thought you were qualified in some way and thought you could handle whatever you’re doing but you realized very quickly that there was a lot more stuff you needed to learn and you kind of realized how inexperienced you were. this could also apply to education or knowledge in some type of way as well. So this summer you're going to be studying it up and making sure that you are where you need to be and I feel like you're not going to wait or depend on other people to tell you how you're doing. I think that might have been that what held you back in the first place. They're could’ve been people around you who weren't qualified and shouldn't have tried to give you advice and you took it in thinking that it might have been correct. this summer you're going to level up fr. for most of this is your whole 2022 maybe you've noticed/been working on this since 2020- I guess you are a material grl this summer
Tumblr media
4: I'm getting a hot girl but for others you might be a sad girl this summer. There might be a situation that makes you feel very sad like you were betrayed (or will be 😰) you might feel really lonely as if you have no support and you're on your own. I feel like at first you're going to be very upset about this, it may have already happened for some of you but I'm getting for a lot of you this probably will happen in some form. maybe not exactlt as I described it though. you're gonna be finding out the truth about something; you could find out about some possible manipulation that you hadn't recognized before maybe this was somebody that under the disguise of helping you were just trying to get something from you. this could really apply to a lot of situations so take it how it resonates But I feel by the end of the summer, at least by the end of fal,l you're going to be ok you're gonna regain back your strength
Tumblr media
5: This group oooh this group is going to have a lot of tea 🍵 I'm specifically getting for a lot of you there could be a man that might have came towards you and offered some sort of romantic or sexual offer and you said no. this might be someone who you have to have a lot of boundaries with. You weren’t necessarily “bitchy” or you could have been a bit rude but you really made it clear that you don't like them. They could have done something you found undesirable I feel like you're going to get a lot of other suitors (some of you might just seem them as flies 🤭) and believe they aren’t worth your time. for others I feel like these are/gonna be people that you may actually have to work with or that you were working with they might get feelings for you or try to get closer to you in some way. I'm gonna say a lot of you really want to stay alone this summer uh so this is very much giving hot girl, like megan thee stallion curving their asses and being unapologetic about it🤧, you could be both a material gworl and a hot girl. ok we love hot girls trying to get money. Yall are v cool. In all honesty this could happen during a school project or something like you're taking summer classes and you have to do group project and people are hitting on you or you're at work and you get a customer thats hitting on you or like your coworker keeps on talking to you

Harringrove, 7, 20 and 26?
Thanks for the ask Ihni 💙 This was really fun to think about and I think I went slightly overboard lmao
Feel free to send me more with those two or another ST pairing, I clearly have a lot to say 🤣
the meme
7. Who is more sentimental?
That one goes to Billy. 
He’s the one who gets stuck in the past: the life he had in California, his life before his mom left, that’s something he probably doesn’t allow himself to think about much—at least not until El reminds him of how happy he was then—because it hurts too much, but once he opens that window, it’s hard to get him to stop. 
Billy collects pictures, concert tickets, small trinkets that remind him of a moment when he was happy, of people he loves. He’s the one who listens to a song and feels all kinds of emotions about it, either because he remembers the first time he listened to it and who he was/how he felt back then, or because the song reminds him of someone. 
He’s the one who gets emotional or refuses to watch a specific movie because it reminds him of his mom.
He’s the one who wears Steve’s clothes when he isn’t around, because he needs the comfort and the reminder that he is loved.
He’s an emotional guy, so he’s definitely the one who feels the most sentimental.
Steve on the other hand is very much the kind of guy who lives in the present. He doesn’t care much about pictures, doesn’t really collect items, I mean just take a look at the guy’s bedroom, he clearly isn’t someone who needs to surround himself with pictures and items and thinks a lot about the past. It happened, it made him sad or happy, moving on.
A song is just a song, I’m not saying he’s never going to associate it with someone or a memory, but it’ll probably be a quick thing, he won’t linger. 
He lives in the moment, clinging to the past or old emotions isn’t something he does much, what’s happening right now is more important to him than how he felt ten years ago. 
(That doesn’t stop him from wearing Billy’s clothes too, but that’s something he does when Billy is around because it gets him all hot and bothered.) Next questions under the cut because it got long lmfao
20. Who holds a grudge the longest?
Okay, this is a tough one, because I think it’s really, really hard to get Steve to the point where he’s going to be so mad at someone he’s going to actually hold a grudge. I mean, Nancy basically broke his heart calling him and their relationship bullshit, and he still tried to show up the next day with flowers to apologize. But that’s because even when he’s hurt, Steve probably always feels like he’s at least partly responsible, and he’s clearly ready to put his pride and feelings aside when he really loves someone and wants things to work out.
So you’d have to really, really fuck up for him to be mad forever. 
On the other hand, I think he absolutely is one to be awfully bitchy and petty over small things. 
Let’s say Billy makes the mistake of finishing the tub of Steve’s favorite ice cream once, a treat Steve was really looking forward to after an awful day at work. Billy better be ready to jump in the car and go buy a whole new tub the moment he realizes his mistake, and that’s not saving him from Steve bitching about it all night, and he’s never forgetting about it.
“Oh, you’re mad I finished the Chinese leftovers you were saving for lunch? Remember the Ice Cream Incident of ‘87?” “Steve, that was thirty years ago.”
Everyone knows about the Ice Cream Incident. 
On a more serious note, I also think Steve would definitely hold a grudge against someone who hurt the people he loves, which means it’s probably a good thing Billy started shit with the kids back when Steve didn’t care too much about them, or they might never have moved past it. 
Now, Billy… The easy answer is “yeah, he definitely is the kind of guy who holds a grudge forever and over the tiniest things” but I think it’s a bit more complicated than that. 
Someone he doesn’t really know and cares about pisses him off/annoys him/says or does something hurtful, he’s going to forever put them on his shit list and it’s going to be really, really hard to make him change his mind. 
It’s not so much holding a grudge, it’s more protecting himself. If someone he’s starting to get close to—which, you know, is already a pretty huge thing in itself because he’s really bad at letting people close—fucks up once, he’ll probably put an end to that relationship immediately, he’s never going to be the one to take the first step to fix it, and it’s going to take A Lot to get him to forgive.
Now, if it comes from someone he loves deeply…
Well, pain and betrayal coming from the people he loves and who are supposed to love him? What a surprise, it’s not like that’s literally one of the very first things he was taught in life. 
A part of Billy just expects it, so if—when it happens, Billy just takes it. Doesn’t say anything, goes numb, and would probably accept any apology as long as it means the person—Steve isn’t leaving. He won’t hold a grudge, but he won’t talk about it, and he’s definitely never forgetting it happened, so in a way it’s a thousand times worse than if he actually held a grudge and got mad about it, because it’s impossible to fix something if you can’t see it’s broken. 
I feel like this one got away from me and I don’t have a definite answer, I guess they can both hold grudges for a long time, but it depends on who, what, how, etc… 
26. How do they comfort each other?
The first and most obvious answer is touch. They’re both bad with words, don’t really like talking, most of the time they don’t even know what the fuck to say when the other is feeling under the weather, so kissing, hugging, small gentle touches.
Steve is pretty good at noticing when Billy isn’t feeling well, what he struggles with the most is figuring out when Billy needs to be left alone to deal with things or process shit on his own, and when he actually needs Steve to be there for him. It’s a hard thing to balance, because Billy doesn’t even know himself sometimes so that’s probably something they struggle with at first. Steve tries to fix things because that’s what he does and he isn’t always patient enough, or has a hard time accepting that some things simply can’t be fixed, and he gets hurt when Billy lashes out because he just wants to be left alone.
But once they figure it out, Steve learns to notice the small differences, he learns to give Billy some space, and to wait for him to be ready for some comfort, and that’s when Steve can shine. Wrapping Billy in a warm and soft blanket and getting him to lie down on the couch with his head pillowed on Steve’s thigh so he can card his fingers through his hair until he feels better; simply holding him quietly until Billy stops feeling like shit, etc… 
Billy hasn’t known comfort since his mom left, he has no idea how the fuck he’s supposed to comfort someone, it’s not something that comes naturally to him. You feel sad? Yeah, everyone does, you aren’t special, jeez. His first instinct is definitely to ignore it because he doesn’t know how to deal with it, and because that’s how he was taught to act. 
Steve showing vulnerability would probably make Billy feel awful at first, because you aren’t supposed to do that, and what the fuck does he expect Billy to do? He might even say hurtful things at first, because that’s all he knows. 
So I think he’d just mimic Steve at first. Steve hugs me when I feel like shit, I guess I’ll hug him when he feels like shit. And it slowly reminds him of what his mom would do, and it hurts to think about but he also remembers how good he felt when she’d hug or kiss him, so that’s what he does.
And then he remembers when she’d cook his favorite meal, or take him to the beach, out of the house and away from Neil, so he starts applying that too. He gets Steve his favorite food, does small things for him, gets him in the car and drives without purpose, just to get them far away from everything where Steve can breathe a little bit. Well, shit, this really got long, anyway, thanks again, I hope this was as satisfying to read as it was to write 🤣

Hiii! How about 14 and 17 for the ask game? 💕
Hii 💕 thanks for asking me the questions! Sorry I went a little overboard with my answers but they were a lot of fun to write.
14. bl you think is underrated
There’s a few really great shows that come to mind like Triage and Vice Versa but the first one I thought of was actually My Secret Love. It aired May this year but I don’t remember seeing many people talking about it. Probably because the premise is pretty straightforward, set in University, enemies to lovers, nothing particularly genre defying or unpredictable. I think it’s underrated because it features a lot of great friendships and some of my favourite relationship tropes and is a well made enjoyable show.
It has the essential Enemies to Lovers but also my favourite underrated trope of Best Friends to Lovers. As well as an adorable established relationship couple and the cute fan and idol style relationship Bomb and Bear have. All four couples are very likeable and are successful in having their own individual storylines without making the show feel too cramped. The show balances it’s lightheartedness and jokes with it’s more emotional scenes while it starts off quite unserious, it becomes a bit more intense as the show progresses. I don’t think it’s the greatest show ever and it’s not one of my favourites but for some reason it’s the show I thought of when I saw the question. I definitely recommend giving it a watch and, if you do, let me know what you think.
17. best kiss
No contest. Didn’t even have to think about it. Bad Buddy episode 5 rooftop scene is the best kiss scene hands down. The range of emotions I felt watching it. The way Ohm and Nanon put their whole souls into that kiss. And the scenes leading up to it? The building of tension throughout the whole episode culminating in ’Do you want us to be friends?’ ‘No.’ Makes me crazy. The first part of the kiss followed by the slow separation and then Pran pulling Pat in to kiss him again like it’s the only time he will ever get to do it? Actually makes me insane. The music. The hands in each others hair. The absolute heartbreak you can feel them both go through at the end. Pat’s sadness coming only after Pran leaves because for a second he is just so happy that he finally understands his feelings and that they are reciprocated and it’s beautiful but him soon realising that it’s not all okay and that it’s never going to be that simple for them. I can’t fathom a scene that could possibly beat it and I wish I could watch it again for the first time every day.
Honorary mention to my favourite kiss of the year which is the Eclipse episode 6 imaginary kiss. I know it’s not real but the fact is we all thought it was, for everyone watching, Akk and Ayan’s feelings for each other had been slowly building and the tension had been building almost imperceptibly throughout the episodes and they went from enemies to more than enemies so smoothly that you could barely pinpoint when their feelings appeared or even when they became aware of those feelings. The kiss seemed like a solid awareness of those feelings from both sides and presented a vulnerability from both characters that we had yet to see (even if it was fake vulnerability). And maybe because we watching knew these characters weren’t aware enough of their feelings to kiss each other that the kiss seemed that much more intense? Because despite not understanding their feelings for each other and still being enemies they were kissing anyway. Like once they started they were only drawn further in and got lost in it. Plus of course the scenes leading up to it that made it that much more real being the intense and emotional beach scene and the tension of the locker room scene where they 100% would have kissed if they hadn’t been interrupted. Also it’s super funny that everyone was waxing poetic about the kiss and what it meant for their relationship only for us all to get clowned as soon as the next episode came out.
Basically first kiss scenes are my favourite thing ever because I love the tension and emotions and everything about them and you should never (always) ask me about first kiss scenes because I will go crazy talking about how much I love them.

DUE TO OUR VASTLY DIFFERENT TIME ZONES i never rly get to check out what youve posted but i see youve named ur katanagatari s/i!!! tellbme abt the kamakiri ship this is ur opportunity to gush !! this offer does not expire also so only gush when you wanna BUT
Thank you! And no worries, I also curse that we live on other sides of the planet. Also thank you for the gush pass, I think I went a little overboard with it 😅
I did name my s/i, his name is Larimar, aka The Preening Merchant! He uses he/him, but refers to himself using the royal ‘we’.
As you can probably guess, Larimar is a merchant, selling a wide variety of supplies for whatever purpose you may need. He acts as if he’s very important, which often comes across to others as being arrogant. He’s ‘from a faraway land’ (white), and his animal theme is a peacock.
His store is actually where he and Kamakiri met! Larimar does sell to the Maniwa Corps, and Kamakiri came in one day to buy and the two of them had a polite conversation. These interactions continued over time as they bumped into each other, and chatting turned into becoming pen pals. Sending letters worked great because it meant they could talk more than once in a blue moon, and it’s when an infatuation started to develop. I think Larimar started crushing first, he really likes Kamakiri’s serious personality, and you can definitely tell he’s into Kami when they’re in the same room together. On the other hand, Larimar is good at his job, he’s friendly, and sometimes the princely demeanor is genuinely charming. It didn’t take long for Kami to reciprocate those feelings.
They continued to write, and from an outside perspective it might have seemed like they were dancing around the obvious subject, but they’re letting things progress however they progress. I doubt Kamakiri has been able to hide his crush from the rest of the Insect Squad though, and there’s been some teasing about it (all meant in good fun, of course. They also hype him up 100% of the way). Jumping ahead a little bit, eventually one of them does breach the topic and makes their feelings clear, and it’s met very positively. I imagine their first kiss happens somewhere tucked away in private, just the two of them. :]
Then Kamakiri leaves for the island, and of course, things go pear-shaped there. Larimar doesn’t get any new letters for a while, and starts to worry. I believe the Maniwa would be kind enough to pass along the news about Kami’s death. Larimar is distraught for a while. I’ll be honest, I don’t have a solid explanation for how Kamakiri comes back - in the back of my head I say that he was resurrected by a wish made by Larimar + all of the love that was stored in their letters. But I feel like that falls apart if you think about it, so I don’t dwell on the why. He gets resurrected somehow. He finds his way back to the mainland, and he and Larimar are able to continue their lives.
That’s all I’ve got in terms of a timeline! I really like their relationship, I’m a big fan of the falling in love via letters/messages trope. Larimar really wants to be seen as important and special, and Kamakiri ends up giving him that, but Kami also shows him that he doesn’t need all the fancy clothes and stature to be liked (not to Kamakiri, at least).
