Happy (belated) halloween! This is what I've been tacking away at while I'm sick. This is a little spinoff I wrote. It's honestly like 5% halloween 95% erotica. Halloween was just a poor excuse to write a spinoff. Current word count is ~5.3k.
As stated I wrote most of this while I was bedridden so please excuse me if it sucks a little bit. Ahaha. I didn't even proofread lol.
Uriel and Lucia's routes should be added by next week~!

OUGH OKAY uhm!!! @rowanthefierce
all of the gang works for valka's dragon sanctuary!! valka in my au is more like valhallarama from the books in that she's moreso absent for long periods of time & when she's there she's relatively detached but!! hiccup takes over the sanctuary (at like. age 15 but shhhh. valka & stoick still pay for everything but hiccup runs it rlly)
so from like, 15 to 17 the gang are learning abt dragons & begin education programs to help ppl understand dragons better!!! the dragon academy does become a thing!!!! after they graduate high school tho (yes this is all while they're juggling high school!!!) they all start kinda going separate ways (and obv eventually come back together full time but!!! it's uncertain for a while!!)
more under the cut bc this is gonna be LONG!!
hiccup, astrid, fishlegs, & the twins get into the same university.
snotlout doesn't, he gets denied (it's a whole Thing™️ for the gang)
however they all pursue different things
hiccup, as like, predictable as this is, pursues engineering & tries to get as many certifications as possible. he's doing AS MUCH as he can, as hands on as he can. he wants to learn to be able to help make the world a better place for toothless (and all dragons!!) once he graduates he's back at the santuary full time & helps design new parts as they expand & get bigger! also new stuff for dragon care & just!! yeah!!!
in his free time, hiccup has a motorcycle he rebuilt from the ground up, loves zipping around town, he also draws, & ofc spending as much time with toothless as he can (maybe sneaking toothless out of the sanctuary.... a lot)
fishlegs goes into environmental science with minors in plant pathology & geology!!! this also ties back into dragons & their care through their environments best suited for them as well as dealing with climate change & stuff!!!! he applies what he learns to the berk sanctuary!!! he also goes back to the academy but he also works at the berk public library part time!!
fishlegs also collects so so much music, so many records, tapes, cds, 8tracks, u name it!!! he also has a rock collection ofc!!! he also spends as much time with meatlug as possible (maybe sneaks her out)!! he also gardens!! & does yoga on saturdays with astrid!!!!
astrid gets a double major of kinesiology & nutrition!!! this is more human oriented obv HOWEVER she's constantly trying to remind everyone around her to take better care of themselves for the love of everything!!! although she still is able to apply what she learns to dragon training!! u can not move the ways dragons do but motor skills are still important as well as eating right!!!! either way, dragons gotta learn this stuff to but in their own way!! she graduates & goes back to the sanctuary & helps with that!!
astrid does axe throwing in my modern au. she goes & practices often to blow off steam. also a track & field person FOR SURE!! like, discus throwing, hammer throwing, the godt damn works!! she's a weight lifter too!! i need astrid to be buff so bad!!! also yoga with fishlegs on saturdays!! she wouldn't call it "sneaking" but she does like to take stormfly out & about :)
ruffnut is pre-med and does go into veterinary school. she stays in school the longest out of the gang which shocks EVERYONE but it's what sounded interesting & it gave her a challenge. plus working at the sanctuary, u end up caring for a lot of sick & injured dragons. fishlegs helps her BUT she becomes The Medical Expert™️ & even uses the sanctuary for her dissertation & specializes in dragon veterinary medicine!!!
as for hobbies, ruff is still a chaotic being who loves destruction & explosions. she & tuff do mythbuster type shit!! she also is very much into theater!! she sometimes participates in local theater & did a performance or two in college!! i also think she longboards!! loves sneaking barf and belch out of the sanctuary!!
tuffnut gets his degree in theatre with a minor in chemistry!! the minor was more of an accident. he took the classes bc he thought they were interesting & ended up getting enough credit for the minor!! after he graduates he works at a few local theaters part time to help with either cast or crew (he acts but also sometimes he will do costuming, stage production, etc!!) but he also goes back to the sanctuary after he graduates!!
tuff's hobbies overlap with ruff's in that they do mythbuster type shit LOL!! but also he's in a little sewing club with snotlout!! he also longboards with ruff!! AND ofc, he raises chickens on the side :) loooves getting barf and belch out of the sanctuary.
snotlout. snotlout, snotlout, snotlout. this boy's got it kinda rough. he gets denied from the university everyone else goes to & it hits him hard, so he keeps working at the sanctuary full time while going to community college & trying out classes that interest him, but he feels lost. he finds himself doing a lot of music oriented classes & just gets a two year degree in music. later he'll go on to be a high school band & choir director of all things but that's down the line :) before then while working at the sanctuary he works part time at a local biker bar (once he's old enough)
snotlout's hobbies are a bit of a mish mash. he plays guitar, has a harley davidson motorcycle (goes riding with hiccup!!), is in the sewing club with tuff (has an etsy store on the side shhh), & loves sneaking hookfang out of the sanctuary!! also loves american football & sometimes does hammer throwing with astrid.
do they all have one big mutual thing they all share & do besides sneaking their dragons out of the sanctuary? yes. yes they do. they have a long running dungeons & dragons game & they also love multiplayer video games in ANY capacity. any way to be competitive!!!!!!! minecraft, smash brothers, mariokart, marioparty, runescape, call of duty, halo, ANYTHING they can get their hands on, old and new.

Fooling around together - Paladin Danse x Sole Survivor Fanfic
This is the 5 part of a series of fics im writing lately, the order will be:
May I use your shower?
Volver a tener algo
Addicted to Chems
This one: Fooling around together
Traumas at the Commonwealth
Being awake
Since im in a rampage writing with this new ship I want to make some announcements
If you are very very very delighted with one fic and want a continuation I didn’t write or post you can donate me at least $5 bucks, most of this fics have next chapters I don’t finish because lack of motivation but hey a $5 is a $5, I see a few reviews and coments that fics that are abandoned months laters receive coments of wanting to know what happends next. Here it is, I finished my handling with you all, enjoy the fic
  Danse didnt know how much of his life was actually…his life…
There was Haylen and Rhys since all the other members of his squad died under his command…theres also the registers on the brotherhood…but he cant access anymore since he was banished and there also was…
Nate.
But he didn’t have much record, a few months maybe.
Now and on he has Nate to count on him, of course the man wouldn’t only be a register of his existence but…he is a relieave proof of existence…
Maybe Nate can ask about the registers of his ADN on the brotherhood files but…
Danse sighted, he didn’t know how to ask that…
He didn’t know a lot of things. He was so unsure of everything…well Nate also was unsure, more paranoid than anything…
But now he had him, and Nate refused to let him go despite his true identity
-I love you beyond that-the man said to him in an ocation he was having a dark episode, is not like he didn’t care or take it on consideration but…-I love you Danse- love was stronger
A blush appeared on his face, and when it was time to came out his thoughts…
Ok it was 19hs and they were lucky to find an abandoned house with  the walls in almost acceptable state, the rest of the house of course had already been looted and scrapped but…having 4 walls to sleep was a start, at least to avoid the commonwealth animals around…it was getting dark and they needed a place to sleep for tonight, Nate learned the bad way to not  travel at night so when Danse said a few hours ago to start looking for a place to settle…he obey.
It didn’t pass much time since…they confessed, and expend together their first sleep, it wasn’t a big thing tho, just a few blowjobs and handjobs, this days weren’t nice and they didn’t find a nice spot to sleep or bath, at least he can think that’s the reason why they didn’t advance much…there was rush there was definetly rush but…Nate wanted to stop, and he was fine with it, but it makes him wonder what was happening since the vault man was the one who started…and seem more hungry of his body even but he always wanted to stop at some point…
Tonight…he sighted…well it was still an awfull place for that…maybe that was the reason? A special place and ocation? It was weird since they were both pretty adult man and that was…a really childish reason…a hygiene thing? Sure they didn’t bath but sometimes Danse think that Nate was going to devour him and then stops!
Grieve? He was a widower after all…maybe he is dealing with some feelings…
The house they were now setted…was weird…small, one of that classic wood American houses of less than 10m but two floors…beautifull garden and terrain but small house, as he saw in Santuary Hills Nate had one completely different, modern, he will say,  large with a low height but 4 rooms…this was weird because you enter, see the living room with the table and tv for family dinner,  a little kitchen to the side… a door out to the garden…a circular stair to go up and two bedrooms but…where the hell, where the hell where the bathrooms!? This was weird!
Not like he didn’t care about the poor choices an arquitec made building this house 200 years ago but this was weird, and a lot of houses around the commonwealth have the same problems, you see that wooden furniture full of decorations…so this people had money…but not a bathroom!
-Are you done with the checkings? –scream Danse to the upside floor, they went in the house and agree that there was no much time to keep wandering at open field to walk, so better just take this one to sleep and make a fire, but but but always was important to check out, you never know when theres a feral ghoul sleeping under the bed…maybe he was a normal person until a week ago an just transformed while cooking and out of nothing you get a bit on the neck trying to rip you off, so the procedure to find a place to sleep was…
1- Find a place
2-Check open spots on the rooft, find a place to put a bed
3- Look out for people, ghouls, or some animals
4- Loot if theres anything
5- Secure doors and open windows
6-Step out the power armors and park them in front of the door the room you are sleeping
7- ?????
Finding a place with a bathroom was secondary tho, there wasn’t much of that around so better not have hopes about it…
I mean they can poop in a bag and trow the bag away from a window at least, of course that wasn’t the best but is not like there was another option…
-Seems fine…theres a lot of furniture we can use to seal the windows, help me with the power armor- As soon he went up the stairs Nate was waiting for him with a wooden table flip to the side –help me to move, I preffer to not have sunlight than let a pack of flys get inside in the night –the ex-paladin nooded and help the new-paladin to place the table as a woodenboard –theres that drawer, crate,  organizer and bookshelds…none of this windows have glass so…-again, the ex-paladin noded like he was the soldier under the commander officer…but he was now so, better help…
Once the original order of the room has been complete changed in order to protect their asses, practically boarding the entire room booth looked at their work, Nate sighted.
-There are some matress here we can use? Or better unpack the sleepingbags?
-Nono…apparently two adult people lived here, no childen, theres one matress on each room, lets pick them, move them here and trow the beds into the stairs, I don’t thrust the entrance of this house, better have the way blocked.
-And how are you planning to get out the house in the morning? We cant just make our way out with the power armors its difficult to move and punch stuff, better not get stuck.
-Lets jump from the windows, we are not that high from regular ground, but imagine if some raiders have in the night the same idea as us, these roads at not so lonely as you may think, theres a lot of caravans also so better make this place…unusable for any one that isn’t us…after all this house doesn’t have a bathroom what the fuck
Danse giggled, he had his same idea, it was silly because it was an obvious thing to notice but…it melted his heart.
-Let me force the door, put a booksheld in the front, get up and then we are trowing the beds down and let them crash okay? –Nate nooded and Danse went down, as he see around  the little kitchen still have the refrigerator, so with the power armor strength he took out the steel door, use it as a block on the main door of the house, and then, just for security, picked up the entire refrigerator and trow it to the entrance, crealy blocking the way out…
Well there was open windows around the living room…but thing wasn’t to let people know they were setting up for the night so the less scandal they do the better, after all it was just a place to sleep…just 8 hours and out it cant be that difficult…he went up and meet his partner, then both went to the room and pick up the bed each one from one side, moved a bit to the stairs to position and…Danse kicked it down the stairs, obviously the crash against the bars and walls make the furniture break and collapse, making a mess difficult to clean up. Then the process was repited with a second bed, and now there was two broken wood beds in the middle of the stairs, blocking the way to the first floor of the house, if anyone wanted to surprise them it would surely have to explode the entire floor to make them come down.
That was unlicky to happen, possible yes but pretty crazy also…
Behind him, Nate went to pick up another booksheld with the hands of the power armorand kick it where it was the start of the stairs, moving it, still blocking the way, more even, surprising Danse at the harsh sounds of everything crashing and breaking.
The man was paranoid lately.
-Help me with a second one-said the man looking to anoooother booksheld not so far but…
-Don’t you think is enough with this? If we block out the only source of air we left we might intoxicate if a fire starts or something
-I mean its not like the room is hermetic but…you have a point, alright –then, Nate take out his headpiece, letting it rest over his hands –lets go to the room, im all sore from walking in this all day
The ex-paladin laughted, his partner never was a fan of using a  power armor, too much worry he said, it breaks so easy he said, it uses so many materials to repair he said…so winy.
He started wearing all the time after they left the brotherhood behind…well Nate didn’t say he did
Danse sighted  at thinking in that and went into the room, the procedure was as always, close the door, block it with drawer and then park the power armor in front of the furniture that blocked the way…Nate did that, apparently in a hurry to be normal again and not a steel doll, the man still have his fusion core on the hand…
-Want me to have it for a bit? –Danse offer his best help at seeing him so exhausted, but it was useless, since he came back from the institute he always looked this way.
-No, just came off yours so I can hide your fusion core too, park it in front of the matress, back to us like always.
The ex-paladin was actually happy of having this security procedures together, it went all one day that one caraban stole one of Nate power armors…the ones he collected at Santuary Hills…he always left them with the fusion core on until a woman name Carla stole one and refused to get out, the vault man didn’t want to kill her but he went sure to make a few holes on the armor with a  carabin…..
Still, not enough to scare her and have the armor back so…never a fusion core at anyones reach, too risky
He did as he was told, after all Nate was a paladin now and he was a…citizen of the commonwealth…not a paladin anymore…damn he broke his ass for that title…but Nate too, still he didn’t have to obey him for that but it was time to rest anyway, the day was long and difficult as most days wandering in the wastelands…
Danse sighted at coming out the power armor, and then feel the other man hugging his waist, placing his cheek over his arm, the ex-paladin place a hand over the one on his waist and smiled, Nate craved sometimes for the touch, he didn’t like being separated with the armors.
-Do you want to start a fire or better eat some cans?
-Lets eat cans, I need the aluminium and the weight off, the water ones specially…is 1lt of water so…its weight…-the ex-paladin nodded and went to pick up their stuff, getting a can of purified water and some 200 years old pasta they found somewhere…radioactive? Hell yeah, it does matter? Well not exactly now for him as he was a synth…and Nate said something weird of not being affected by rads in the food after leveling up or something he didn’t pay too much attention.
Was he now or maybe always not affected by radiation? Was his human synthetized body affected or not? He was a bio-robot, clearly bio, Nate explained him the process how a synth is created in the institute and they managed to create life…soulless life, bodys without purpose until they put synth components to give them a personality, a memory bank, a processor…his mind wouldn’t be affected never by the radiation but his body…maybe yes…but what was the limitations of a super human robot? Maybe they were designed to not be injured by radiation, after all they were designed super human robots, why not delete all flaws? If they were trying to continue human species like before the war…
Stop.
Don’t keep thinking on it.
His brain repeated, for the third time in the day.
Sometimes he looses on the confusion of now being a synth but all life before being human…his sane mental state some times appeared to take him out the thinking depressive things hole, he was gratefull that still being walking on this difficult new path he was sane and conscious of how things were developing.
And Nate was right there to help him too.
They didn’t have forks or spoons to eat, they mostly put the can in their mouths and pray for the food to decide to come down onto their throats, then clean with a tissue, poor? Yes, the only option they had now? Also yes? Confortable? Well definetly not but…Nate say they were still together like this, that it wasn’t going to be much different for him to be all alone in Post Bravo…
The new paladin sat over the matress and went to open the pasta cans, Danse was so unsure of so many things lately…does he need to eat? He preffered to give Nate the food if he really was a robot but he remember feeling hungry or fainting from starvation before…those were really vivid memories…
-You seem in pain –said Danse sitting next to him, the man looked uncomfortable, the way his back was arched didn’t look right.
-You know im not fond of 24/7 power armor as you, it wasn’t a good idea to travel with one…I don’t wanna leave it behind but I don’t wanna use it either…-it was funny how there wasn’t a real currency and still Nate managed to be miserly about resources –I could hide my face some other way…
-I preffer your safety, is important to use it
-I been picked up and trow to a wall more times than my hand fingers can count without a power armor –said giving Danse one of the cans, the man picked it and moved the cold pasta a bit with his finger to make it loose
-I still preffer you with one on
-Im eating, make a pee and go to sleep, tonight is cold and im tired, we walked a lot
-Want me to take a guard?
-No, lets sleep together, I need your warm –Danse cheeks burned, it wasn’t like a code or anything but lately that phrase ended up with them getting all horny whenever they are sleeping, it was true they sleep more confortable in each other arms but it was also true that most of the situations ended up with them making up.
Alright then, this would be the night maybe?
Danse place the can over his lips and open his mouth, waiting for the pasta to go down to think in something else.
Situation wasn’t perfect, hell yeah it was shitty, they been in this exact same position before so it wasn’t new but there wasn’t any hope of a hot shower for Danse anymore now, there wasn’t a clear future for him, it disappoint Nate so much that the only thing he can offer the man was this…poor living conditions…better this than let him sacrifice for the Brotherhood ideals but still…he save him and force him into a crusade to run around the Commonwealth and avoid his responsabilities…this was the best he can offer right now…
Of course, he can come back to Sanctuary, Codsworth was always waiting for him but…one day he saw a small camp with a perfect view to the vault 111 in the forest with one small symbol drawed very similar to the ones the Railroad uses…that realization make his spine shiver, he would never feel safe at home again, someone is always watching, no matter on which side.
The thought made his body tremble, and as fast Danse noticed this, he put an arm around his shoulders.
Nate thought that Danse did it because it was cold, but the ex-paladin knew that Nate has demons just like him inside his mind, all the time…
There was noise, a lot of dark and ugly noise around them and it was their duty to mutually take care of each other and disperse the noise away from their minds.
He often find the man zooning out, trembling, falling, sighting or wanting to suppress a unexpected cry.
And just like Nate did it with him, he would watch over him too.
Danse finished his can of pasta, trow it to the next wall and then place his head over Nates shoulder, placing a hand over his knee while the man eat.
The man became a mistery after coming back from the institute…well both have flipping life changing experiences after all…like seeing the world burn wasn’t enough for Nate…
After Nate finished eating and drinking for the night, the miserly man pick up the cans and let them next to his things, preparing to go to sleep.
-Do you realize we need to find a station to fix your power armor right? Im not going to carry your trash until we find that –Danse was already laying on the matress, looking at his boyfriend peing against a hole in the wall, goddamit the new paladin find it hilarious to do that silly stuff and Danse didn’t get it, I mean it was practicall since the liquid and the smell wouldn’t stay with them but he did this in everyplace they sleep.
-Im not planning to, when did I ever gave you my trash?
-Im still carrying your fat-man
-Oh no im not hearing this, you are carring it because when I tried to get rid of it you said “nonono you cant go around dropping valuable things like that” like a angry dad, even if theres fat-man all around the corners…
-Well i…
-If it bothers you so much I should scrap it…
-Don’t even think on that
There was a brief silence, then a buckle from Nate, and then one from Danse, both laughted.
Nate tucked his dong after using a tissue, but didn’t actually fix his pants, when he turn around Danse saw him and blushed a bit, yeah, he suspected well…The man slowly made his way to sit next to him in the second matress and hold his cheek, looking directly at his eyes.
-Are you alright? –this was a way Nate had to ask him if it was okay to…advance…if he was unconfortable, too tired, too cold, sick, hurt or emotional he preffered to wait for the next day, but yeah, today he was fine, a bit tired just like him but…as fine you can be in the wastelands…
-Im okay –Danse hands went to the sides of Nates hips, making the man tremble a bit at the touch, but as soon he did that the new paladin lift his leg to sat over his stomach.
The positive thing about being on top of Danse was the view…Danse was actually a bit skinny but in comparision he was huge in size and Nate was so in love with that...both hands went to his cheeks, caressing the tick hairs of his black beard…gosh it was so masculine and handsome…
-I look at you and I cannot think on another thing more than telling you how much I love you…-the ex-paladin laughted a bit, enyoing the sensation of his fingers in his jaw, moving his fingers in circles over his hips
-You sure you are not just lusting?
-I think I have reasons to say that I love you deeply –Nate gave him a playfull smile at it, getting more closer to his face, and then out of nothing Danse hand moved to his crotch, pressing over the pants and the underwear,  surprising Nate but taking a soft moan out.
-I have my reasons too –Nate laughted and his torso went down, laying on top of Danse chest, his mouth looked for his and  he was well received with a deep and warm kiss, moving his head to the side to make them space confortable.
Yeah, this was right, this was definetly the thing he looked all over the day, if they could just disappear and be this close together without having to worry about surviving…
Danse hummed on his mouth and that surprised the other man, apparently he was having a blast with just a kiss, his hands moved to his wast, securing his grip at hugging him tightly, Nate moved his head a bit and the ex-paladin went desesperate to eat his mouth, they were not getting separed for  oxigen until someones head gets red and both separate laughting from the intensity
Nates hands went down, moving all around his chest, pressing firmly with the tip of his fingers all it was avalible to touch, he loved how the man feel so firm and hard anywhere, the thing that really make him have doubts in the first place was how handsome and perfect he was and…he was having it, it was his, after wishing it for so long…
Nate went off the kiss because he was smiling, took some air and then went back to eat the ex paladin mouth in a tongue kiss, hands getting brave to get under his shirt and feel the warm of his skin, not to mention the beautifull sensation of the hair of his torso and arms…
Danse felt hot, really hot, Nate always rushed, had a level of intensity hard to keep, same as fightings, the man jumped directly in the face of danger and in bed he jumped directly to what he most desired…He loved that hands, hands that didn’t despise him for what it was, he could believe that as a synth he had no right to be loved or desired but it wasn’t like that, the other man was so fonded with him that he couldn’t care less about it, having that deep conection really make the ex paladin head fly…yeah…he liked this…he whished for this moments with him…a moan died between  their tongues and he could feel how Nate went more exited from it, the man moved to sit more confortable over his hips and have a better pose, moving his hands to the side of Danse body, firmly grabbing and getting delighted with his abs, again, making the ex paladin moan, it tickle but also feel good.
Danse hands moved down again, placing over Nates pants in his clothed ass gripping with a bit of strenght, the man on top of him shiver at the touch, but as he bite his tongue and rob a moan he didn’t pay much attention to the rest…the feeling of Nates fingers tangling over the hairs on his chest make him snap a bit and pay attention to the sensations over his body, above being hotheaded, he was hard, very hard, his buldge was against Nates leg where he was sitted and take a moment to check over the situation, looking down, confusing the vault man who was enjoing the kiss at being separated like it…
Well look at that…an unconscious reflex made him buckle his hips, making the man on top move a bit, a groan came from the back of his throat at how good it felt, calling Nate attention, who stood up just to look too…Danse hands secure his grip onto his hips and set a peace where he would buckle slowly and soft into him and would move him a bit, trying to be circular but of course it wasn’t perfect, he close his eyes, goddamn it felt good, the rubbing with his crotch and his body was amazing but…
-Danse –Nate called for him, Danse was in a trance that took a few more attempts of him calling his attention before he could snap-Danse! –he sluddenly open his eyes…why wasn’t Nate moving? His hands went down, wasn’t he enjoying it as much as him?
-Are you alright? –said the ex paladin, it was true, the man didn’t make any move but he also wasn’t playing much attention. Nate seemed a bit…conflicted…not confortable…
-Sorry theres something I want to tell you –the ex paladin went up on his elbows, looking at his face, Nate went to cup his cheeks with a hand and place the other over his hot neck, liking how thick it was under his fingers.
This was it, this was the moment where they stopped but he never ask to…talk before…it was good it was good it was an advance…
-Yes?
-Sorry i…-the man sighted for a moment, taking a breath before looking down again- I been thinking a lot this days…and I really try to be open and give it a chance…to like it…-one of his hands grabbed Danse to put it over his crotch, sure he had an erection, he was hot but…all rubbery…not hard hard…it was very different from him, that sadded Danse for a moment but he was willing to hear his concerns…-I do not feel comfortable receiving…this…-he said as he pushed his ass against Danse buldge- doesn’t feel right for me…
Wow…
Danse sighted in surprise…ok he could deal with this is it was nothing…
-Its okay, do not feel bad for it –while this is clearly a turn off because of how much he was enjoing it he can understand the man worries…
-I do, because I want you…but I know I don’t like this…-said again, jumping a bit over the ex paladin erection still on his underwear, he was doing it on purpose- sorry I been trying for days to try to feel confortable with the idea but I cant…
-We can do another stuff…-this hit hard because lately he was thinking what was his real sexual experience…he cant make differences between the memorys implanted by the Institute and the ones he at least lived the last months so…
-You don’t get it –the vault man went down, facing him, lips against each other, talking with his warm breath against his skin while looking directly at his eyes –I want you…
-Oh…-Danse hands moved up, to catch his shoulders and secure him there, it was a nice pose, he liked how his eyes melted over his…
God this was hot, so hot, body was burning in desire right now even if the goddamn conversation was just about not doing it…His head moved to the side and sighted frustrated but then, out of nothing, Nate went to his ear and left a little wet kiss before whispering with his hot breath..
-Don’t worry ill just have to find the best way to fuck you –hearing that last one make the ex paladin slurp saliva hard, frozen…but not frozen…completely still on his place but burning like crazy, a wave of heat danced from his toes to forehead at hearing that. God having pants on now was killing him, he didn’t want to make the other man uncomfortable but…
-I think we are kinda familiar with anal sex at his age…
Silence…
Nate went back and had to use his hand to cup his mouth, snorking hard from the nose, Danse see the little wet drops from his nose as he tried to not burst in tears of laught, seeing him like that make the man also laught silly, it wasn’t actually that funny….but it was enough to trigger the silliness in Nates mind, and that always make Danse laught with him…
A few hands fly all around, playing with each other, laughting loud at the bad joke, Danse hands went to his stomach to pinch and play a bit making tickles and Nate went to defend himself from the little attacks, hugging the big man and moving around the matress.
Joy, this moments with him bring Danse joy…he could feel the man smile against his arm and shoulder and it make him feel his chest full of a very nice sensation.
A few moments later they relaxed a bit, Nate hugged him by the waist and make a hand find a way under his pants, finding so amazing how warm the skin of that zone was…
-I can help you for tonight…
-You don’t want anything? –Nate denied with his head, his fingers went more brave and down at meeting with his pubes, playing with the thick dark hairs at their encounter
-When I say im tired from the day I mean it…and I finally let this off my chest…I been forcing myself to try to like it so this is a relief
A bit disappointing? Yes but they weren’t in a rush or anything, and it could get better, he trusted the other man…habilities…
Danse kissed his forehead.
-You sure? –while he also desired the other man, to touch and kiss and bite and get off all the goddamn clothes off him…it was okay for this night, he admitted this wasn’t the best place and the conditions weren’t favorable –Okay…
Fingers went down down, getting lost between his dark hairs, making Danse shiver at expectation.
Nate moved to be between his legs, locking their eyes together and just make the most sexy smile he had ever seen, Danse feeled like he was going to be eat…and expected it harsh
-Stay with me for the rest of the night okay? I want your warm…-wait didn’t he say before that he needed the warm? the way that words left his mouth make his cock twitch, and the next thing Danse see before being obliged to close his eyes is the other man pulling his pants down to devour him entirely.

Murder on the dancefloor.
july, sunday 3rd, 9:13pm. Barcelona.
My name is being called. I’m Cayetana here, they call me Caye. It puts a smile on my face as I make my way towards these familiar faces. They like her, they like Cayetana, her ginger hair swaying around her curves when she moves, her foreign accents dancing when she speaks the local languages, her carefree laughter echoing in the early afternoons. An exotic bird, who runs by the sea and bite into tangerines until the juice is dripping down her neck, and her fingers,  messy and tangled in her white summer dress. That’s what they see in me, nymph of the sun, vestal of the sea. No eyes have witnessed the abomination I become when the moon rises and the life is purged out of me, like a poison that did nothing but to consume me to the guts, to the bone. Whenever I’m alone at night, in my house, like a witch in her santuary of despair and madness. There, my broken bottles lie around as the wine fills my veins until I finally get to see them, hear them, these realities that only exists in my head. And I always stumble my way through the house, escaping down the beach as I fall on my knees down the sand, surrounded by them as if they were truly here : my family and my baby. But I wake up, alone, hungover, pathetic, bleeding, in places i don’t remember making my way to.
I’m wearing a blue dress, blue jewerly that matches with it, and the lights of city reflects on the red of my lips. I place down a tray of little cakes. We are in the park of la ciutadella, immense gardens with a small place in the middle where dancers gather and dance in the afternoon. Salsa, Tango. Usually the music is playing and we switch partners as the songs come. I now come in here, on the daily, as I was warmly welcomed by the group united by the passion of dance and sangria. Tonight is a special occasion : we’re having a contest. One they’ve been talking about since I arrived, a tradition they usually hold just for fun and connection between the artists we are. Strangers came to watch, couples, children, curious pedestrians.
However.
I need a win.
To wash away the pain of my own perdition. 
I want a win.
To make the scars on my feet disappear.
I crave a win. 
For my son to be proud of me.
I will win.
“Qué lindo! What’s the flavor?” Questions Ana, her smiling eyes on me as her fingers are pinching one of the small cakes I’ve made out of the tray. Every one was in charge of bringing a something to eat for a little get together before the contest starts, this is my contribution.
“White chocolate and lavender. The flowers are fresh from my gardens.”
I answer with a smile painted on my lips. The cakes are white and purple. It’s pretty. And I watch her as she takes a bite into it, content. Oh she devours it in such a filthy way.
This isn’t my first lie, nor my first attempt. The lavender is only to cover the taste, the mix of flowers i use for my cakes isn’t quite well received by the human organism. Anybody having a cake tonight sure won’t be able to dance the way they usually do. Nothing that could kill Ana and the others - I think - but their muscles might become a little less responsive as time will go.
The smile on my face never withers as more and more contestants come and have a bite of my creation. 
And I stand still.
Smiling.
I win.

Character Reveal 4 of 4 - Headmaster Stelliana
Tumblr media
Ta-da~! The last character reveal. Now that everyone is here, I'll make a new intro post soon~! Yippeee!
Headmaster Stelliana - Beholder of the Moon - She/Her Pronouns - Honored Vilyuchkan Scholar
(Transcription under cut)
Headmaster Stelliana is the high priest of the academic circle known as The Beholders of the Moon. She is the only companion you will meet on your journey that can blend in with the whims of regular society. In fact, she is an extremely honored scholar at the University of Saint Yelena, even being an official member of it's schoolboard.
But underneath all of her respect and honor, and the merits of the Beholders, lies a sinister secret. In reality the Beholders are a collective group of Mad Scholars obsessed with the revival of the Old Gods. They pose as the elite academics of Vilyuchka in order to receive funding and acceptance. Despite their strange goals and enigmatic natures the intelligence of the beholders knows no bounds. Their minds can not be bound in any mortal capacity.
"Headmaster Stelliana is rather flat and unreadable. Though do not mistake her lack of emotion for coldness. She's analytical and precise, yes, but she is also incredibly polite. She doesn't carry herself with any sort of pretension, nor does she assume anyone she meets is below her intelligence. Instead, she finds great value in the many forms of intellect that mortal culture holds.
She also prides herself on hospitality. She believes a good first impression can cement the fate of any relationship. Stelliana loves to get to know new people over a cup of tea and a few finger sandwiches.
Despite this though, she has a penchant for keeping secrets. Her true motives can be hard to pin down, even amongst other Beholders."

ok here’s this. pokemon au ramble. because this week has just been me loving my ocs but bass boosted. under the cut!! this post will be REALLY long mainly because of the teams sorry!
pokemon au is pure bc no deaths or rlly bad things happen
buggy is a trainer who went on the pokemon journey for fun and as a coming-of-age kinda thing(also because he may or may not have burnt his house down with a litwick), but kinda stopped getting gym badges half way and decided to settle down and just take the road casually. he settled down with apoccy and they both run a little pokemon sanctuary and care for pokemon that aren’t able to go back to the wild or have some little quirk (for example a litwick that cant keep itself lit easily). he likes battling for fun rather than for glory, and when his rival (farrow, obvs) was like “ha im gonna beat u and become the champion and ur not” he was like “i mean ok have fun!” which makes farrow pissed. he’s a guy who really cares about pokemon’s feelings and basically got back into action from pokemon santuary-ing and fought against the coven (the bad guy team) to stop them from hurting anyone.
team: 
- Ari (talonflame) (he flies around on her!)
- Lulu (chandelure) (his absolute baby and child)
- Fluffy (ampharos) (he named it fluffy when it was a mareep but then it evolved a bit and it wasnt fluffy anymore. its name is still fluffy tho)
- Big Boy (pelipper) (he’s a big ocean enthusiast but can’t swim and is a bit afraid of the water, so he uses pelipper to navigate over it and help him fish)
- Ellis (sylveon) (he wanted him to be a flareon but he loved them a lot and he ended up becoming a sylveon but buggy still loves him 100%)
- Musha (musharna) (musha helps him go to sleep easier and stay awake better as well, it’s basically his service pokemon ahghjhdjkf. she’s usually floating by his side!)
i think mendel would be a pokemon professor bc he studies pokemon. how he was even trusted enough to hand out pokemon to small children is a mystery, but gene takes care of most of the friendly stuff with handing u ur pokemon and stuff, mendel just does the research. later on it’s revealed that mendel is part of the region’s bad guy group, the coven! (>:3cc) their goal is to fuse multiple powerful pokemon together into the perfect pokemon that is able to beat everything and everyone else, in a combination of every type in existence. (Idk if this is the plot of any game bc i dont remember the plot of any game past pokemon b/w honestly) eventually the protag gets them to not fucking destroy everything and befriend the big boy pokemon (juggy, but like pokemon) and the coven disbands their group and just live life as normal people not criminals bc pokemon verse is best verse
team: - Juggy (sivally) (idk shit about sivally or the sumo plot but it looks like a fusion pokemon and its cute so like um there we go ig. in the actual au itd probably be a completely new pokemon but im lazy)
- Cofagrigus (obvious reasons. if i didnt want to keep this au pure i wouldve mentioned he still grave digs)
-Mimikyu (shut up its cute)
- Flabebe (flowere) (”oh what a pretty flower, it will be great to work on. oh no its a pokemon. guess its my child now”)
- Arbok (its a snake he loves snakes he gives it little pats on the head and rattatas)
- Claydol (it has a ton of red eyes and its black and red what more do you want from him. also he thinks it is cool and its psychic so like hhuiionnghgh yeah)
gene is a pokemon docdor (he heals those boys up for you and takes care of them) and helps mendel out in research since they both share an interest in researching pokemon!!! he doesn’t know that hes part of the bad guy team that snatches up pokemon and doesn’t question any weird things he decides to research about until like the end. he’s really nice and’ll probably catch up to you along your journey just to see how you’re doing, check up on you, and give you cool stuff like the master ball n stuff. he has a big greenhouse where he grows berries and’ll give you some as gifts along the way. he battles you occasionally to see how strong you’ve gotten and’ll heal your pokemon when your done, giving you tips. he likes hanging out around forests and little garden areas.
team:
- Serperior (long boi. good noodle boi.)
- Comfey (C O M F E Y flowere boi) 
- I lost my old gene team im so sad so i dont remember any of it
- Bitty (budew) (BABY BOY BABY! he loves them sm) (it evolves into roserade later on but shhhshhh baby budew)
- Swanna (pretty birb!!) (helps him water the plants in the greenhouse!!)
- Ana (unfezant) (HE NEEDS ANA OK)
- Audino (mega) (he needs that healy pokemon it’s essential) (theyre his little helper)
farrow is the stereotypical rival guy tbh. with buggy he was like “im gonna be better than u” and buggy was like “stop bullying me” but then just “ok” so he got bored. with skuggy it was more competitive, and they even battled each other right at the victory road’s entrance to see who was better, but they never got to complete the elite 4 trial since the coven juggy shit happened and they basically had to team up temporarily to stop these guys. when all of that was done farrow got back to challenging the elite four and trying to become champion, but he’s still struggling and is trying to train his team to become better while skuggy went “eh i’m done that was fun tho” and gave up. farrow hates being seen as weak and wants to have the strongest team, but he still loves his pokemon even if he pushes them near the limit sometimes while all focused up on winning.
team:
- Ally (linoone) (theres no possum pokemon and im mad but he likes ferrets too so) (or uh. long raccoon?) (either way he loves ally and she’s kind of a tank)
- Mittens (incineroar) (this was his starter, somehow, since he took the traditional trainer coming-of-age path and went to become the best.) (he loves his cat even if it did become....bipedal and buff??????) (They share the same big ego and victory flexing) (he rides on mittens’s shoulders sometimes or mittens carries him with arms in the air like a king)
- Rogue (liepard) (cate!!) (also it really fits him!!!) (he loves his thief cat and steals everyone’s items with it and makes them mad) (skuggy has cursed this cat out for stealing all his pokemon’s items at least twice before while both her and farrow looked on grinning smugly)
- Jasper (noivern) (i associate farrow with bats a lot, i think he likes bats now) (big fuckig boy who farrow flies on and farrow really likes battling with) (when farrow is out travelling and is tired and it’s late but he can’t find anywhere to stay, jasper shields him and makes whats basically a mini tent with his wings around him)
- Doggo (houndoom) (Farrow named him doggo as a joke but it stuck) (Fire dog with evil aesthetic! Farrow loves this) (He’s a good dog and farrow pats him for doing good work. he sniffs out berries and items for him on the road and is like his guard dog.)
- Snippy (gliscor) (another bat babey) (i might change it but idk) (it’s a sneakey boy) (he is also a tank and poisons everyone’s pokemon) (farrow accidentally gets stung by him like twice a week)
skuggy is a trainer who set out on the pokemon journey as a means to get out of his shitty house and family, collecting pokemon to help defend himself, but ended up really loving pokemon (especially bug types) and trying to take on a few gyms while he was at it. eventually he met farrow and it became kind of like a little race to see who can get the most gym badges first, giving him a motivation to travel the region and take on the elite 4. after the juggy fiasco he got a bit tired of fighting and decided he valued his pokemon a lot since they defended him and helped him fight back so he said “yknow what im gonna take a break from our race thing, im just gonna find somewhere to finally stay and chil out” while farrow was shaking the elite four’s door like “LET ME IIIIIN”. he’s kinda chill now and is thinking about going back and trying to fight the 4 someday, but for now he’s just a guy who catches bugs. he and gene hang out sometimes and go into forests n stuff. he’s still a butcher in this world ig. mans gotta make some money
team:
- Clove (scolipede) (his first pokemon, he caught it and went with it, but got really attached really fast) (she is his baby and he made it so far with her by his side and is really proud of both clove and himself for getting this far) 
- Big Tony (armaldo) (he found a fossil pokemon and kept it since it’s rock type and can help ward off fire types, which is a big weakness of his team, but he ended up loving big tony too. i know theyre supposed to be like 4 foot 9 but please imagine big tony as a BIG boy that skuggy can ride on its shoulders and back to get around.)
- Babie (ribombee) (he caught this thing and said “this is the cutest shit i’ve ever seen.” went on to destroy dragon types and be the best bee ever.) (actually it’s pretty weak but skuggy believes in them)
- Toaster (heracross) (heracross was too cute for skuggy NOT to catch. it’s the powerhouse. this boy rips thru pokemon likes it’s nothing. unless it’s a fire or flying type. then it dies.) (it likes to f i t e and shares skuggy’s quick temper, because u know what they say, like pokemon like trainer)
- Big old boy (stoutland) (this was also one of the first pokemon he’s ever caught and it was really strong, defended him well and was kind of like the tank of the team, so he kept it. he likes sleeping on its back, and sometimes it has to remember it isn’t a tiny dog anymore because it tries to jump at skuggy to greet him and he gets fucking smashed.) (hes a very good boy, he’s very fluffy, and skuggy loves him so much and owes him his life)
- Jeff (swadloon) (skuggy loves his emo-looking son.) (ever since he beat depression in the dick he just cant help but see himself in swadloon) (but swadloon is happy, just very comfy and grumpy) (swadloon loves skuggy and skuggy loves swadloon) (i mean just look at him) (it’s perfect for skuggy)
okay i’m done here there’s obviously more people but this post is getting alarmingly long and i still need to make their teams. if u read this entire thing u deserve 20 cat images and more jesus christ u madman !!!!!!

It's Time
(Negan x oc wife one shot)
Tonia sat in her survival suit, the one she had arrived in all those years ago in, next to her was a small bag, different from the one she had originally owned but after all of these years being his wife she knew he wouldn't...or rather shouldn't get mad over the bag. It only had things that she needed and owned nothing else.
Negan had taken her in when she was found on the side of the road with her sister rily who was half dead by the time they had been found, immediately taken by her sass and beauty the man had proposed to her. Of course Tonia didn't want to accept because she was a surviver,  but he used the one thing that she cared for against her.
He said Riley would be taken care of, they'd fix her up, the man had known how sick the girl was and knew this was the only way for Tonia to be entitled to the supplies. Toni said yes, and at first it was only her, and then there was more wives, Negan had never known how many women he could actually get to be with him until he offered it as an option to them, most did accept.
Of course some times they left, he was okay with that, Tonia never had...not in all the years of dealing with him, not until now.
No, she hadn't gotten jealous of him favoriting the new wives, or spending his nights with the other ones, Tonia knew what they had was just sex and when he needed it, advice.
Most of the time it was about the other girls, she wasnt like them using sex to get what she wanted, Tonia was a mother to the girls, hell he even assigned her to hear out their list of complaints and 'needs'.
Sometimes it was even about what he should do with the other communities, though when she gave him advice about the latter she always stepped lightly. Despite doing so, the wife had gotten him to grow gardens in the sanctuary and even start on solar power.
Tonia thought it was kind of nice of him, making he feel important. The thought made the mourning woman smile slightly as she sipped her bitter drink and waited. Tonia had never liked this, drinking, that is, before marrying him...but everytime they had kissed Negan had tasted of hard liquor and over the years she had found herself enjoying it..
The girl admitted she'd miss this.
The door opening made the thought disappear and the tired brunette's eyes focus on the man who had entered. Right now, he didn't know yet, it was evident by the shocked look on his face, he was curious...no amused by Tonia's prescence. The wife almost rolled her eyes knowing, what dirty thoughts were going through his head, even now while she was hallowed out, Toni knew what he was thinking about.
At the moment he thought she wanted him.
"Darlen...sorry to burst your bubble but i was planning on seeing Sherry tonight...but if you want to double, you know i won't say no to-""My sisters dead." His chuckled sing song voice was cut off and amused smile fell suddenly at her sorrowful expression and blunt words.
Negan's thoughts of sherry's cherry, were pushed aside as he moved towards his oldest wife in an effort to comfort, his mind went blank on what to do, how to help, but Negan knew he wanted to try.
He couldn't believe no one had told him.
"Toni, i had no idea i am so sorry, when did it-""just after you left- this morning.....don't, i'll be alright." Tonia would be, she had awoken in a fright as Simon banged on her door, wearing only her robe and night shirt, Toni raced out to Rily's room, the savior hadn't needed to say a word she knew from the look on his face what had happened.
Riley had been getting taken care of but she was like the boy in the bubble, she would never have lasted long...postponing was all they could do.
Everyone she passed sent the woman pitying looks, not only because they knew, but because they felt for her, cared about the sorrow she was going to endure. Everyday Tonia was either in the kitchens or the gardens  or with the children, she always gave low point earners a huge amount of points for carrying her heels or getting her gloves or whatever thing she had them do.
Tonia liked helping them and they all had seemingly wanted to comfort their mourning queen. She had been there to hold Riley's body, to put the knife through her skull when she started to  stir and to prepare her for the burial...the woman had cried sobbed for most of the day with hands shaking and Simon was the one to sooth her.
The man had even offered to call negan back...but they both knew he'd be to busy to come, even if he wasn't Tonia didn't want him, Negan was good at a lot of things, but comfort...that wasn't something he was used to dealing with and she knew better than to burden him with it. So Simon was kind enough to hold the woman and sooth her tremblings...But that was simon just being nice. At least that's what she told herself.
That's why she had waited here, after composing herself and letting Simon take over the burial...since she couldn't stomach actually seeing the small angel be covered in dirt,  Tonia waited for Negan to come home. And now here they were in a stale mate, Tonia had set down her glass and held her hand to him in warning to stay away.
The stood there and looked at one another, red rimmed steady eyes staring into dark confused ones, his body was tense and lucille had been left by the door in order to make room to hug the woman, his batting hand felt empty with out her, his fingers twitched with her absence.
"I...I want out negan." The words surprised him, almost more than the first ones she had said to him had and Negan's brows furrowed as he had moved towards the woman.
Negan's gaze loomed over Tonia's body as though he had just realized the change in her apparel he found his voice. "what..."
Her finger tips brushed against his firm chest, one that had she had rested upon and held onto countless times before, this was one of the first times the woman was pushing him away. "You heard me Negan, I want out."
He had heard her and the cogs in his head were whirling for an answer as he stared down at the tanned solmn woman in confusion and hurt. Why would she want out, why now, why wouldn't she let him hold her, kiss her gently why wouldn't Toni just let herself be held?
Why wouldn't she let him take care of her?
Negan looked at her jaw clenching as he took in her survival suit and noted how the dimness of his room made her look older, tired...perhaps it was more than the darkness doing that to her though. At seeing how sad his wife was looking, he shook his head, he had seen this look before and no, he couldn't just let her go like this, she'd need him just like Lucille had.
"....Tonia, you're in shock...you're tired...and possibly drunk you're not thinking straight-""I came up with this hours ago, I'm not drunk or sleep deprived. Riley is gone, there's no reason for me to be here." A light tremor went through out her words as the man moved towards her, causing Tonia to have to brace herself on the sofa, she was determined though and did not break his gaze, no matter how much it caused her to shake.
"no...reason? Tonia i will still take care of you, I want to...let me comfort you and hold you-""No." The words were firm and she stood fully with determination in her eyes as their noses brushed against one another, the comfortableness of doing this with out tremors or the need to move away, wasn't lost on the wife, though she still continued with her words despite her wantings.
"I want out. You knew what this was, just as i did, and now I want out.."  He looked wounded and  his muscled hands shook as he went to touch her cheek, he felt like crying too and he understood she was hurt, but Negan had no idea why she was doing this now...she needed time to process this she'd need to be comforted..
"Tonia...is there someone-""Don't you dare, finish that sentence Negan you know me better than that. " The words were spat and tonia shoved him away angrily causing the man to stumble back due to sheer surprise.
He had crossed a line though so negan deserved her anger, but he didn't see any other reasoning to why she was pulling away..
Tonia looked almost alive now with mane of frizzed hair and angry glinting eyes which died down to embers as she continued to speak.
"I'm opting out, i'll work anywhere in here, that you want me to, though you know i'd do better where there is food or maybe even one of your outings if you care for the idea...but i'm opting out, i've already packed my bag and sorted out my room for the next girl."
He stood there feeling like a boy losing his favorite teddy, or his mother in the grocery store, Negan felt at a loss as  he swallowed down his sorrow and looked down at the woman who stared at him oh so knowingly, he hated how she knew him so well. It felt like he was losing Lucille all over again.
"It's time....we can still be friends...or nothing, like we were before, i really don't mind either way..." He shook Tonia's held out and squeezing slightly as he pulled her into a hug.
She was the closest out of all of them to be like a real wife to him. She was always there to be talked to about important matters, the woman was most involved in his dreams and desires for this place and the future of the other santuaries. No other wife was able to talk to him as easily as she did. Tonia took care of the other wives so he wouldn't have to deal with their nagging and brought up their wants in a way that the man didn't want to kill himself everyday do to their constent demands. Hell, Tonia even cooked for him if that wasn't being a wife he didn't know what was.
In the beginning, Negan even cooked for her and Riley when they first got here, he missed that even enjoying the harem he had he did miss that.
And as he held the woman tightly inhaling her scent, Negan felt a loss for Riley, in some way the young teen had been the closest he had gotten to having a child...the man knew, her younger sister was the closest Tonia would ever get to having one.
Just like with Lucille, children weren't in the woman's future. She returned the hug ever so slightly with gentle hands before stepping back and releasing her fake husbands grip. He looked sad for losing her, for not being there...he remembered the first time he had met the kid, it was when tonia first joined him and she hadn't been there that night, when he wanted alone time.
Negan remembered barging in prepared to give the motherly woman an earful but he found her reading to the half asleep girl and took a seat at the end of the bed instead, watching with almost loving eyes as she finished telling the story. Rily had looked so small and fragile.. and that night Negan took her into his arms and it was one of his favored memories with her.
"I am sorry about Riley, I am so fucking sorry Tonia...you know if i had known i would have been there with you as soon as i could-""you don't have to explain...just call up one of your men to take care of me, i'll be fine..." Negan nodded his head giving her a half felt smile as he stepped back and gave her a once over.
"you look so...you look so much better in these clothes rather than the dresses...why'd i have you wear them?" her own smile came at the price of slight tears glinting in her gaze as she shrugged. "I have no idea..." After that she slung her bag over his shoulder and negan found himself unable to look away from her.
Simon was the one he called up and by the time he had even barked into the walkie, Tonia had left the room and waited outside. Mostly it came from not wanting to spend another moment in the bedroom where  she had first laid with negan, where she had secured her future here.
The man placed an arm around the mourning woman's shoulder and tensed slightly as she rested her head on his. "so...you're single now.." Tonia managed a small laugh at his act of flirtation before the guilt started to come back. "you offering something solider..." he kissed her forehead leading the woman down to her new life.
Negan had bee kind and given her a saviors bedroom though she only would be working in the kitchen and gardens...he had been kind and ordered simon to make sure she didn't start working until at least a week into settling in sown there. Simon was sweet enough to stay with Tonia that night drinking and talking till she snuggled into his warm embrace. 
But morning came and a numbness settled in along with regret, she should have let Riley bite her.
