Oh I very much want to hear more about these short stories, the tags got me 👀
— @outpost51
okay okay okay
so the first one: i'm picturing a lounge singer. and she was pretty successful in the past - jazz clubs, cabarets, everyone wanted this blonde bombshell with the voice of an angel headlining a show at their clubs. she was beautiful, she was glamorous, she draped herself over a chaise longue and drove the men in the front row wild. she could have been a movie star - hell, darling, they were banging on her door to sign her - but she couldn't do without singing live. there was something about how the audience changed every night, the too-hot spotlights burning into her carefully made-up face (the sloppy affairs that went on in the dressing rooms that smeared lipstick over white collars and powder over imitation-silk dressss) that had her caught in its spell.
and now it's thirty years later. she's in her fifties. something they don't tell you about making a living live is that when the clubs close, when the promoters find a new shiny songbird who'll work for cheaper, when even the thickest powder can't hide the signs of a life lived...luxuriously...when all that happens, you're stuck performing at holiday clubs and weddings, that unearthly voice snared in the trap of reality.
she's booked a semi-regular gig here. it's out in the middle of nowhere, the guests want less sultry crooning and more nostalgic chirping, but it's free room and board and honestly? she's tired of the pitying glances, the unconscious shakes of heads. it's too late in the game for an album, they say. you're an icon, they say. they mean, you're ancient history.
she smokes between sets, watches the cigarette ash mingle with the dust that barely passes for sand at this miserable resort. the door to the kitchen opens, and a head of dark curls pulled back into submission pokes out.
"mind if i join you?"
i'll make a part 2 for the other short story soon!

@orkachii ​ I tried to find wattpad stories where ships weren’t the main focus but it hard??? So I added some Archive stories too under the cut.
The Loud Library (BBS x Reader) (I am aware you do no lie X Readers. I just put it in here in case someone wants to read it) Y/n works at a big, old library in a small town. The library had many sections and the further you go in the library, the older it gets. Y/n has never went too deep into the library until the new guy put a book in the wrong place. However, something in the oldest room of the building caught Y/n’s eye. Note: No ships! Reader just is another character. -COLORFUL EMOTIONS- Everyday, every color, every emotion helps them remember their feelings because they’ve forgotten how to FEEL…How to LOVE. Note: Big ol poly bbs
DISCONTINUED/NOT UPDATED
LunarEclipse High { TerrorSnuckle ʕ •ᴥ•ʔ } *DISCONTINUED* I’m not one to fight. I’m not one to lift a sword in battle. I’m not one to harm. I’m not one to spit out words to sadden. I’m not the one to save the world. I’m not one to face my fears… …And win… She chose me for a reason… But what? Note: Its soooo good omg All☆Star Academy. (MINICAT) Craig has been through his ups and downs but when his mom is diagnosed with cancer and he gets into his dream school all star academy he is lost ((P.s All☆Star Academy  is a school for talented singers and anything to do with music)) ENJOY!
Finished Stories
SilkThe first time a dress majorly captures his attention happens when he’s at work.It probably isn’t the best time for it, but it happens anyway and his eyes stay glued to the silk dress the whole time he helps move the heavy ivory piano.Note: Brock in a dressss
