jschlatt who gets you to appear briefly in a video
in the video, things are about to change, schlatt talks about how the content on his channel is going to not constantly be tiktok reaction videos.
however, he really needed someone to hone the point home for the audience that he doesnt want to keep up this content anymore (like he needed it, i doubt we wanted it too)
one evening, after editing the video, he walks out to the main living area of the apartment, where he sees you lounging about on your phone, cats laying on either side of you.
he smiles, he then circles around and comes in front of you, sitting in the small space left on the couch. as you lower your phone, you offer him a small smile.
he begins his proposition: “how’d you like to appear in a jschlatt video, sweetheart?” he offers quietly, his voice gentle as if he went any louder it’ll falter your decision.
you look at him confused, you didnt NOT want to appear, but this came out of nowhere. you never discussed anything about you appearing on camera or making you guys public, so the proposal took you by surprise.
“whats it for?” you quiz, not entirely sure where this is leading. he smiles in return.
“i need you to pretend to tell me off, in a sense. you know like, ‘schlatt we’re going broke you gotta stop tiktok reacting’ or something. nothing serious, and if you dont want to its okay.” he explains. you nod your head, imagining how it would go down.
“yeah i can do that, do you wanna do it now?” you ask. you lift yourself up from the couch, the two cats meowing in discontent due to the shifts in weight.
“yeah if you dont mind, i’ll just pretend you come into the room and do it.” he stands up and reaches out his hand for you to grab, and you both make your way into his recording room.
he sits himself down in the chair, and then gets his recording software up and running. once everything is tested and ready, like his mic and such, he turns his body to you.
“alright so yeah, just come in and say like ‘you gotta stop tiktok reactions its ruining this family’ or something really over dramatic. just a quick bit, nothing more.” he explains.
“right, got it.” you nod. you leave the room and close the door behind you. schlatt starts blabbering on about something, and then yoy open up the door.
“schlatt you gotta stop making tiktok reaction videos, we can’t afford to live here anymore.” you say sadly. he looks at you with a distraught look in his eyes.
“oh god.” he lets out breathily. “oh fuck.” he stares into the camera.
“somethings gotta change around here.”
he then suddenly breaks character and bursts out laughing. “that was perfect thank you so much.”
he stops the recording and bounds over to you, wrapping his arms around you and pecks your forehead, then your lips. “you’re so good.” he whispers.
“thank you,” you breathe back, pecking him again on the lips. “can’t wait to watch it back when it’s uploaded.”
-
a few months later, the videos live, and you’ve forgotten about the bit you both did.
“even my girlfriend has had enough of my bullshit!” he exclaims through the screen. when suddenly a familiar scene plays on your screen.
you smile, and you see yourself doing some horrible acting, not looking good but looking decent, hair flat and wearing loose clothes.
schlatt leaves the office, and offers you a grin.
“videos live, i hear youre already watching it?” he asks, hearing the video play through your phone. you nod, looking at both of you stare eachother out on your screen. then. you notice something.
schlatts eyes can be seen from the side of his face, and his eyes are bright and glistening as they stare at you, before they lose some color when he looks to the screen.
his eyes are filled with so much love for you, and his audience, hopefully, will see that too.

Summary: Y/N gets invited onto The Late Late Show with James Corden and does a game of Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts with Harry.
I feel like this is a long beginning but just go with it because I promise it gets F I L T H Y.
Warnings: SMUT18+, strong language, praise kink, squirting, oral, fingering, unprotected sex, biting, F I L T H and some fluff
Master List
∘₊✧── 𝑒𝓃𝒿𝑜𝓎 ──✧₊∘
"As you all know, we have the wonderful and talented Mr. Harry Styles here with us tonight!" James reintroduces his guests and the audience claps and cheers, especially for Harry.
"Y/N. Are you ready?" One of the crew asks. I nod, "Oh, yes." She nods and gives a thumbs up to some people.
This is going to be so fun. I've known James for years and everyone knows that Harry and I are friends, but what they really don't know is that we're actually together.
We agreed to keep our relationship as private as we could, for now. I’m honesty surprised we have been able to, It's more intimate for us that way, but Harry has been acting.. weird? I don’t know. He’s asking if I’d ever want to go public and I’m not really opposed to it.
But anyway, I've asked James to keep it a secret that I'm coming on the show, so I've been labeled as the surprise guest for weeks now, so Harry is going to be put on the spot, and we're going to have to pretend that we're strictly 'just friends'.
"As you all know, I like to play a little game.." The crowd starts to cheer, "What? I haven't even told you the game yet!" James laughs, "We'll, since you all know what I'm about to say next, Harry." He motions for him to get to come over to him.
Harry gets up and pulls his suit jacket down as he walks over to him, "Yes, James." He lays an arm around his shoulder. James looks at him with a smile and starts to laugh, "Are you ready to either spill your guts or fill your guts?"
Harry covers his face and laughs, "Oh god. I knew it."
James laughs and motions to the table, "Why don't you go and have a seat over there, but don't touch anything!" Harry walks over to the table and has a seat.
"Now, Harry. You know how this game works correct?" James walks over and sits down across from Harry.
"The title is uh, pretty explanatory, James." Harry chuckles.
"Right, right. Of course it is." James rolls his eyes exaggeratedly and reads his cards, "Oh wait. One more thing before we get started."
"Okay." Harry nods.
"I won't be doing this challenge with you." James stands up and laughs, "Everybody, if you would please give a wonderful round of applause for the very talented and very beautiful Y/N Y/L/N!"
James claps and turns to welcome me onto the stage.
I walk out smiling as I wave my hands to the crowd. I walk over to give James a hug, "Hello, hello." He kisses my cheek, "Hello there, love. How are you?"
I nod, "I'm good, how are you?" He smiles, "I'm great. You look amazing by the way." I smile and wave to the crowd again.
Harry looks at James, "Now I see why you wouldn't tell me who the surprise guest was." He smiles and shakes his head.
I smile and walk over to greet Harry, keeping it very professional. He kisses my cheek, "Hello, darling." I walk around to take my seat and Harry gets up and helps me push my chair in.
"What a gentleman, yeah?" James motions towards Harry. Harry bats the air and pretends to be shy.
That man is not shy around me, let me tell you.
"Okay." I look down at the table and make a face, "Harry? You want to go first?" He shakes his head quickly while smiling, "No, all you."
I roll my eyes, "Fine." I bite my lip and tap my fingers on the table, anticipating Harry's first question for me.
"Y/N."
"Harry."
"On your phone.." he smirks and the crowd "oohs", "Calm down, I didn't even ask the question yet." He laughs and looks at me, "On your phone, what is the last thing you google searched?"
He leans back in his seat and watches me as I think.
I shake my head, "I don't.. I don't know."
Then it hits me, "Oh. Oh no. I can't- nope. It's embarrassing, we'll not.. no." I laugh and can feel my cheeks getting red.
"Y/N? Is it that bad?" James asks leaning in. I shake my head, "Not really.. just like.. personal?" I shrug, "Oh god that's not-" I look down at the glass in front of me, "What the hell is this James?"
Harry wags his finger at me, "Naughty, naughty." I roll my eyes and look at James, "Y/N.. that is blended up fish with plain yogurt."
I gag and shake my head, "I was-" I laugh and cover my face, I lean back and hold my arms out, "Vibrators. I was looking up vibrators. A girl has needs, people."
The crowd cheers for me as I look over at Harry and his brow cocks up as he smirks.
He clears his throat and looks up, "Definitely didn't expect that." He laughs, "Go." He nods towards me and I shake my head with a smile, "hmm."
"Y/N, what are you going to ask Harry?" James asks walking over and sitting down.
"Are there any songs on any of your albums that are about me?" I rest my elbows on the table, knowing damn well there is because he told me himself.
The crowd '0ohs' again and Harry shakes his head laughing, "Yeah, actually there's track.." he mumbles into his napkin, "On the-" he mumbles into his napkin again, "Album."
He shakes his head and tucks the fabric into his shirt. I laugh and clap my hands together, "You don't have to eat that. You can just tell us."
He looks up at me, to the crowd, at James then back at me, "Bull Penis.. sounds.. delightful." Harry shakes his head, "Can I just tell you one?"
I look at James and he looks at Harry shocked, "So there's more than one?"
Harry cuts a piece of the disgusting food off and locks eyes with me as he pulls it off with his teeth, "That's disgusting." He says leaning over to spit it into the garbage can.
He takes the napkin and wipes off his mouth, tongue and teeth. The crowd absolutely loses it with laughter. Harry turns to the crowd, "It's really not that complicated to figure out." He laughs.
I shrug, "Wow. Looks like I'll have to give your albums another listen." I smile and shake my head, "I'm nervous for the next one."
He laughs and nods towards me, "Rank my Movies." I lean my head back, "Damn it, Harry." I shake my head and spin the table, slowly looking at my options, "My policeman, Don't Worry Darling, and Dunkirk."
James scoffs and laughs, "My god that was fast."
Harry nods, "I honestly didn't expect you to answer." He laughs and claps for me, "Thank you."
I shrug, "I'm not eating bird saliva, sorry."
"Okay, y/n, you get the final question and Harry, you get the final spill or fill." James taps the table, "Let's do this. Drum roll please..”
The crowd drums their legs and I smirk slightly.
"Is it true, Mr. Styles." I lean forward a bit, "About what the magazines say?”
He leans in, “What do they say exactly?”
“That there's a possible future Mrs. Styles floating around with you?”
Harry's smirk turns into a slow smile as he quickly picks up on what I'm asking. He gives me a look and I nod and smile, "Go on. Tell us or enjoy those delicious-" I lean over and pick up the the card, "grasshoppers in ghost pepper sauce."
He look at the crowd and looks over at James, "I will say.." he picks up the napkin, "You know.." he laughs and shakes his head, "These grasshoppers don't look half bad."
I hide my smile behind my hands and watch as he teases everyone.
"So Harry." James says, "Is it spill or fill?"
Harry stares at the plate and then his eyes glance up at me. I nod once and my heart starts pounding.
"Spill."
The crowd goes absolutely insane and James leans in, placing a hand on his shoulder, "Alright, alright, alright." He waves his hand to get the crowd to quiet down.
I look over at the crowd and lean back in my seat, "Spill your guts, Styles." I smirk, "We're all dying to know."
He sighs, "I've had a girlfriend for four, going on five years now." James mouth drops and he looks over at me, "What?"
I laugh and shrug.
The crowd loses it again and Harry laughs and shakes his head, "You'll know who she is soon enough and that's all I'm giving you!" Harry stands up and throws the napkin down, “That’s all I’m giving you.” He walks away and turns around laughing.
God I love his laugh and smile.
I’m so in love with this man, it’s insane.
"Wow." James covers his mouth, "What on earth, y/n. You just got Harry to-" he stands up and walks over to him, "Come on, you have to tell us one thing. Do we know her?"
He smiles and nods, "Mhm."
"Wow. Unbelievable! There you have it ladies and gentleman. Mr. Harry styles and Y/N Y/L/N!"
I walk over and stand on the other side of James. I smile and wave to the crowd when they suddenly gasp and start screaming.
"What's going on?" I look at James and he quickly turns around and gasps with a smile, "Oh my god."
I turn around to see Harry down on one knee. I cover my mouth and my eyes instantly well up with tears, "Harry."
"It's y/n!?" James yells, "Oh. my. god." He gets the crowd to quiet down and he holds his card over his mouth, tears welling up in his eyes now, too.
I look back down at Harry and he smiles, "Y/N, you stuck by me these past, almost five years and I am forever grateful for you. You kept me going and stayed with me through the highs and lows of making music. I want you to be the one who continues to do that for me in ever single thing for the rest of my life. Will you please, do me the honor in marrying me?"
I don't even have to think about my answer, "Yes. Yes. Yes!" He hugs me as he stands up, lifting me off the ground. He spins me around and sets me down, immediately taking my hand to slide the ring on.
"What did we just witness here today? Magic. Absolute magic!" James hugs us both and congratulates us.
"What a way to end the show. They really had us going there for a while, didn't they?" He claps and thanks the crowd, "Goodnight!"
We walk backstage and I look up at Harry, "I had no idea you were going to do this, I thought we just talked about confirming that we were dating."
"We just did." He leans down and kisses me, "Now if you don't mind. I want to take my new fiancée and fuck her in my dressing room."
My cheeks get hot as Harry lays a hand on my back.
James stops us and congratulates us again.
"Thanks, mate." Harry pats his shoulder, "We're off to celebrate."
"Don't break anything please." James laughs with a sigh as we practically run into Harry’s dressing room.
He shuts and locks the door, peeling my dress from my body. He shrugs off his plaid jacket and starts to unbutton his shirt, "You just got so much sexier, Mrs. Styles."
He throws his shirt down and pushes his body against mine. His lips attack my lips before they quickly move down my neck.
He lifts me up and takes me over to the couch, setting me down and getting on his knees between mine.
He leans up and kisses down my chest. His hands kneading my boobs. I moan as he sucks and leaves a little trail of bite marks down to where he takes one of my nipple into his mouth.
I moan and arch my back as he holds it between his teeth and flicks it with his tongue.
"Harry." I moan tangling my fingers in his hair. He switches and does the same to my other boob, only this time he takes a hand and slides it down to my pussy.
His fingers slide up and down my slit teasingly.
"You're so fucking wet, baby. Fuck." He groans kissing and leaning another trail of bite marks down my stomach.
He slips two fingers in and I gasp, pulling his hair tighter. He moan as my action and kisses down my one thigh.
His fingers move in and out and I can hear how wet I am.
"You hear that baby? You hear how soaked you are for me?" He looks up at me and I look down at him, nodding as my eyes roll back, "Ye- yes, baby." I grip the couch and arch my back.
"I'm going to devour you. You're so fucking- Mm." He groans and dives in, licking and sucking my clit as he fucks me with his gorgeous hands.
I moan loudly and struggle to keep it together.
I can feel the pressure. I can feel myself getting ready to cum.
He quickly slips in another finger and curls them upward as he thrust them in and out.
I brings my arm up by my head and dig my nails into the back of the couch, "oh fuck!"
"That was fucking hot, sweetheart." He pulls out and lifts his hand up, liquid drips off and onto the floor. I smile shyly and shake my head.
"Don't be shy baby. You squirted all over me. I love when you do that to me." He smiles and goes right back to eating me out.
His tongue fucks my pussy. His nose rubs against my clit. His fingers squeeze my thighs. He sends me into absolute bliss, "H-ha-" I arch my back and my legs shake against his body.
He continues to eat me out until I'm panting.
"You taste so fucking good. Fuck. I can't get enough of my fiancée and her delicious fucking pussy." He goes back down and the pleasuring sensation makes my mind go blank.
All I can do is moan.
He pulls away and come up, his lips wet with my slick. He kisses me and I wrap an arm around his neck.
"Did that feel good, baby?" He kisses down my neck slowly, "Are you okay?" I nod and smile, "That was amazing."
He smile and kisses back up to my lips, "Want to continue?"
"Please." I whimper, "I need you."
He stands up and take the rest of his clothes off, gently positioning me on the couch, "You're so beautiful when you're fucked."
I smile and bite my lip as he pushes my leg up slowly, "You're so fucking-" He moans as he slips the head of his cock in, "Fucking amazing."
He pushes the rest of the way in, moaning as his hips hit my body. He reaches down and grabs my chin, his thumb running over my lips before I open and take his thumb in my mouth.
I grab his wrist and suck while I keep my eyes on his.
He starts to thrusts and my eyes flutter shut. My lips part as I let out a loud moan. He groans and slides his hand down to my throat.
My boobs bounce with each of his thrusts and I whimper as his hand tightens around my neck, "I love you so- fucking.. much." He leans down and kisses me, his hand still around my neck.
I moan quietly into his mouth and grab his hair, pulling as I feel myself about to cum again. I don't even had to say anything for Harry to know.
"Cum again baby, I know you can do it." He whispers into my ear, "I want to feel you cum as I fuck that tight little cunt of yours."
I moan and arch my back, "f-fuck." I whimper pulling his hair harder.
He moans and slips and arm under my back, holding me to him as he continues fucking me. I cling to him as much as I can, clenching around his cock as I cum again.
"Fuck, I want to cum so bad." He moans, "I-I." He lets out a loud moan and buries his face into my neck, "Fuck, y/n. You feel so, so good."
He continues to praise me, "You're taking me so, so well, baby."
"You feel so good around my cock."
"I love it when you cum for me."
I dig my nails into his back and practically scream out his name.
"That's it baby, let the studio know that you feel good."
He groans as I drag my nails up his back, "Fuck."
His thrusts get sloppy and he pushes as deep inside of me as he can go, "Fuck, fuck, fuck." He pants, "Y/N?" He asks brushing hair out of my face.
"I'm still here." I smile and look at him. My eyes are heavy and my brain feels fuzzy. "You fucked me good, baby." I lay a hand on his cheek as he kisses me, “I love you so much.”
He smiles and kisses my forehead as he slowly pulls out. I wince slightly as he lays my leg down, "Sorry."
I shake my head, "No. no. That's a good kind of pain." He smirks slightly and kisses my hip, "We’ll go home and I'll run you a bath, give you some time to recover before we celebrate again." He winks.
I shake my head, "I'm giving you a blow job in the car on the way home."
He smirks and nods, "Fair enough."

if ur fine with nsfw asks, could you maybe do some nsfw headcannons for karma? <3
maybe just the basics like dom/sub, how he acts in the bedroom ect ect (can u tell i never send asks HELP 😭)
if not that's perfectly okay! some sfw ones could be cute too, like his favorite way to cuddle or his love language??
anyways im obsessed with him and had to send in an ask 😪 thank u for blessing me with this wonderful man
LMAO no problem! Also Anon I feel you with the obsession...my friend and I were both simping harder than our willpower to do our exams 😭😭😭😭
Also since this is the first NSFW ask I've decided to split this up into separate posts later on+ a little art to tease your weak heart ❤️. Please enjoy reading what's under the cut.
Content warning: FEMALE reader, HARD explicit smut, detailed kinks such as impregnation, overstimulation, all that good stuff. Please note that this is for 17+ audiences only.

"WAIT! KARMA! THE CAMERA-"
CRASH!!!
Tumblr media
Karma Sangre - Normal NSFW:
When Karma is calm and collected, he's the one usually in control. But if you want to play the dom in the relationship, he's happy to step down! Just make sure you let him know, otherwise he'll take that as a challenge and his excuse to fuck the living shit out of you.
Usually before things get steamy, he'll be worshipping your body with kisses and teasing you with all kinds of lewd words from A to Z. When he's horny, he's a lot more talkative, which makes both his raspy voice and soft lips a dangerously sexy combination. It gets even worse when his steamy voice presses against your ears, tempting you into giving in to his lustful wishes.
Once he hears you plead in sexual frustration, he'll begin licking and biting his favorite spots - your earlobe, your tits, your neck. He especially goes after the neck, making sure that your collarbone is left with some bloody bites.
After littering your body in saliva and bites, Karma will book a one-way ticket to Pussyland. To him, missing out on stimulating your clit is missing a chance at seeing you squirm, moan and whimper just by his tongue alone. The piercing on his tongue doesn't help either, as it quickens your climax even further.
Satisfied seeing your pussy drenched in his saliva and your cum, he'll kindly rub your entrance slowly, starting with one digit, and eventually his entire hand. Well, that depends on how long you want to play the 'tough girl' act.
If you decide to go down that route, say your prayers, because your pussy is going to be obliterated...with toys. What, did you think disobedient girls like you get cock? Please. If there's one thing Karma can't turn down is a challenge. By turning down Karma, you lose your privileges of being his personal fleshlight. But hey, at least you can be his personal toyfucker instead!
Now if you decide to be docile, and play the "good girl" act, you can kiss your legs, your pussy and your pride goodbye. With that 7-inch erect cock, your folds will be spasming and tightening so much that it'll drive both you and Karma mad. The poor mattress will be creaking constantly as that veiny cock of his pounds fucking deep into pussy, begging to cum straight into your fertile womb.
Whilst you're struggling to take the pleasure, Karma will be busy murmuring in Spanish about how good you feel as he holds your legs over his shoulder, his huge hands rubbing and licking your aroused nipples before burying his moans in it with words like "Te amo" + "Ven conmigo" and so much more; Duolingo would be so proud of you!
When you're both about to climax, he roughly grabs your chin, pulling you in a tongue-twisting kiss. From the kiss alone, you can already feel your eyes rolling to the back of your head, barely registering the warm, gooey liquid dripping from your pussy to your twitching legs.
As you try to recover by taking deep breaths, you're hit with the reality that your amazing, horny boyfriend is (un)fortunately an amazing bodybuilder with more strength and stamina than your body can take.
Staring at him with a mix of lust and horror, you whine and mewl, sounding like a dying cat. Yes, you loved this sneaky bastard - but dear Lord you needed a break.
"Sleep, Mami. You'll need it." He slurs while caressing the top of your head, playing with a strand of hair. You felt your eyes beginning to close, blotches of darkness dotting your vision instantaneously, as if on command. Narrowing your eyes, you swore you could see his eyes peeking out of his bangs, revealing his dazed yet sinister gaze.
"Because it's a going to be a long night for you and me."

Hello love I know your requests are closed, but i have to get it out of my system and tell to you about it (please just ignore me) I can't stop thinking about the idea of papas breaking up with reader to protect them and even telling them 'I never loved you' because this way it will be a faster way for reader to move on and stop asking question to their papa, BUT i think the even more angstiest plot twist would be if it was the exactly same day when reader was ready to tell her papa she's pregnant. A few months/weeks after this whole breaking out thing he could by accident find out about 'the news' (im sorry for taking your time, but this thing is on my mind literally on a loop for days and i think you're angst enjoyer just like me ALSO i hope you have an amazing weekend)
~🐍
Aksjshsh ANON it’s funny cause I literally had something almost exactly like that in my discarded drafts snsbsbsb I don’t really plan on finishing it or writing a full HC for it, but here's a little treat just for you. You can imagine any Papa here <3
tw: pregnancy, slut-shaming, self deprecation, hurt/comfort, angst, breaking up, happy ending! please keep in mind this is mostly unedited and just randomly written out spur of the moment.
After the breakup, everything he does reminds him of you. 
It was a mistake— thinking that breaking up with you would set you on the right path, a better one. You had a whole life ahead of you, he didn’t want you wasting it by waiting for him every time he left for tour or had to cancel plans to attend to his papal duties.
He can see the toll it takes on you, the crestfallen expression you think you hide so well when he has to leave a date night early or when he has to call a rain check. The anxiety vibrating off you when you text him after a new concert video is released of him flirting with the audience, asking if it's okay to get reassurance that it’s just an act.
He needed to let you go.
It broke his heart to, but he in his eyes it was setting you free for your own good. You would never let him go if you knew his reasoning— he knew this so he had to make it seem like he didn’t want you anymore.
You didn’t believe him at first, begging him to open up to you and to stop joking around. You were convinced something or someone must have said something; the Papa you knew loved you, he wouldn’t suddenly fall out of love so quickly or be so cruel. 
So he aims for the heart. He tells you it wasn’t really real, that it was all a game to him to play house for a while because he was curious. Now that his curiosity has been sated and he is bored, he sees no reason to keep you around.
It hurts him to say so, and he will never forgive himself for it, but he tells you that he never loved you in the first place, that you were just another body. That you were so easy to bed, it only took a few sweet words and you had already fallen so hard. He calls you laughable. Pathetic. A whore. He laughs as tears begin to gather, taunting you when you run out crying.
You avoid him after that— and he has his Ghouls deliver anything that you’d left in his room to your old room. 
You toss the positive pregnancy test that you were waiting for the perfect moment to show him— it seems like there would be no perfect moment, there would be no moment at all.
He may not have loved you, but you did. Despite the pain, you can’t imagine a universe that you wouldn’t keep his baby. 
You just don’t know how he’ll react. Once upon a time you had thought he would never ask you to get rid of the baby, that he would ask you what you wanted first and respect that decision. But you had also thought he loved you just as much and you were so very wrong.
You try hiding it as long as you can but eventually your belly gets too round to conceal. 
You can see the realization cross his face in real time and when he tries approaching, you can’t help but look at him with hurt, fearful eyes. All it takes is for you to rest a protective hand on your stomach to tell him what he wanted to know. 
“I’m sorry,” you blurt out, “I’m sorry, please don’t make me—“ you swallow back a soft sob, unable to even finish the sentence.
Of all the things he’s ever done, leading a satanic church, promoting sin and pleasure and corruption, this will forever be what he feels guiltiest for.
He doesn’t even think before reaching for you, trying to pull you into his arms to comfort. Can't think of anything else except that right now he needs to soothe you, needs to fix this.
Before, you would have melted into his embrace straight away. Now, however, you struggle and push him back.
He lets you, not wanting to force anything, not wanting to distress you. It’s bad for you— and the baby.
"Tesoro," He tries, gentling his tone as much as he can, holding his hands out with his palms up in an attempt to show that he means no harm, "Shh, shh— I won't make you, I'm not mad. I promise."
You don't believe him and he can tell from the way you are holding yourself— like a house of cards one blow from caving in. You don't know if you can do this again.
He had made promises before, too. Promises you had foolishly believed with naivety. How could you be so stupid, so gullible? To believe that out of all the people in the ministry, in the world, he would choose you? That Papa Emeritus himself could love you.
You should have seen it from the start but you had been too in love with him, too busy making sure you could be enough for him, only to realize that you never would be. There's a sinking realization that you were never enough in the first place.
You never meant anything, after all. He said it himself.
You wonder how it must have felt for him, to have to deal with your inadequacy and even your desire to learn how to make things feel good for him because you had little experience. He must have found it laughable, he certainly told you so.
You were laughable. Pathetic. Whore.
To want to be good at the one only thing you were good for... you wonder how he was able to stand you that long.
You put distance between you and him, arms wrapped protectively around your waist. He looks pained and you're having trouble figuring out what.
Was it because it would ruin his reputation? To have knocked up someone like you?
"I won't say anything," you rush out, "No one will know it's yours, please. Please let me keep it. Please."
"Amore mio—"
"I'm not your 'amore'. I never was, never will be. It's okay I understand that now. Please let me k-keep it."
"I..." He wants to say more, he wants to comfort you and hold you. But he doesn't really have a right to anymore and he can tell how upset you are, he doesn't want to aggravate you any further. "Yes, yes you can keep it. I won't interfere, you have my word."
You still look doubtful and he adds, "I swear to Lucifer himself."
There's a little more reassurance in that. You know him enough to know he wouldn't say those words lightly, even if he had lied to you and toyed with you the way he did. There's a relief that passes over you and you thank him as quickly as you can before dashing off. You hear him shout your name but you don't stop and he doesn't follow.
---
INSERT PAPA DOING HIS BEST TO MAKE UP AND DO EVERYTHING HE CAN TO MAKE YOU HAPPY. LOTS OF SELF LOATHING FOR PAPA BECAUSE HE DID A FUCKYWUCKY.
Eventually there's a moment where you ask why he's being nice, why he's doing this and he tells you he loves you and you call him a liar. He then admits his mistake and apologizes. He says he'll never do it again and will wait until the end of time for your forgiveness if necessary. Or if you never give it, he will wait forever even after the end of time. He is at your mercy.
You eventually warm up to him with hesitation, but you're cautious and always bracing yourself for the catch, for the bad things to happen again.
Papa continues doing his best to support you and be there for you and when he shows his dedication by being there for the birth of his baby and being there for you the entire time, you finally let him back in and offer him the first olive branch by asking him if he would like to hold his child for the first time.

I just want to say something, guys. Because a lot of you need to hear it.
It's going to be okay.
THEY'RE going to be okay.
I grew up a fan of Star Wars. I'm not quite old enough to have been around when The Empire Strikes Back was released, but man, talk about a downer ending. One protagonist lost a hand and another had been kidnapped by a crimelord and they weren't sure they could get him back. I can't imagine what that was like for audiences at the time. And they had to wait years to see if everyone was alright.
What I'm trying to say is, this is a very very classic trilogy arc. And also makes a lot of sense in this context. Like, the first story was based on a standalone book. It ended in a good place because that might have been the end - at the time, they weren't sure there'd be a season 2. But now, there's a Rest Of The Story. And one way or another, Neil's promised he's going to tell it. And I believe him. Not because he's infallible or anything, but because it's for Terry. I trust that.
The rest of the tale is a certainty, even if Season 3 isn't for sure yet. (And listen, if we do our part, that's gonna happen. This show is insanely popular, we just have to prove it. That's all it takes.) Regardless, this is not the end. This is not the last we'll see of them.
Remember the bandstand scene? Heartbreaking. Imagine if that had been a cliffhanger, if we'd had to wait a long time to see them back together again. But in the end, it worked out. This is that, but bigger. The end of an act, the break before the rest of the story begins.
And in the end, they will be together. I'm absolutely sure of that.
We're going to get our happy ending. But this is the angst part. We've all read enough fanfic to know how this goes.
So I take your faces in my hands and say: They're going to be okay. There's no reason for despair. The story isn't finished yet, is all.

Can you maybe do from 911 a buck x celebrity!reader? Where something happens during her concert (a fire on the stage or the stage breaks and she falls down with it and is buried under it) and Buck is a fan of the reader and has a celebrity crush on her.
I dont know i had this idea stuck in my head and didnt see anyone writing something like this!
tysm for the ask! and ofc, here you go! hopefully it's what you had in mind :)
cinderella
evan buckley/reader
tags: female reader, fluff, flirting, technological and medical inaccuracies, use of y/n, buck being awkward and not knowing how to act around reader
cw's: swearing
wc: 1,190
reader is a famous singer, and also buck's celebrity crush.
Tumblr media
You adjusted your outfit as the backstage crew bustled about, looking in the vanity mirror. You took a deep breath, trying to block out the frantic orders thrown around in the background, as well as worried words being exchanged between coworkers about how the staging had been very "last minute".
Whenever this happened - staging arrangements being rushed - it made you nervous, so you were determined not to focus on it.
You checked the clock on the wall; the audience had probably finished filing into the stadium by now. You listened closely past the talking of the backstage crew, managing to make out the excited chatter of your fans. This gave you a bit more confidence. Your fans believed in you, and you loved them, so you weren't going to let a little performance anxiety get in the way of giving them an amazing show.
Your assistant tapped you on the shoulder. "Miss Y/n, it's time for your entrance," she said, handing you a microphone.
"Thank you. Do I look okay?" you asked.
"Stunning as usual!" she assured. "Now go out there and break a leg!"
You slipped through the curtain and stepped onstage. The second the crowd took note of your arrival, they erupted into screams and cheers. Immediately, a huge grin appeared on your face. You waved with both hands, and blew a few kisses as you made your way to centre stage.
"Thank you!" you said into your mic. "Thank you all of you for being here. I love and appreciate all of you."
The audience screamed in response.
"Before we begin this performance, one last reminder to stay safe out there in the crowd!" you said. "Alright, let's get started!"
The lights dimmed, the music began, and the crowd erupted into cheers once again. However, not long after you sang your first note, you had the chilling sensation that something was wrong.
You looked up just in time to see one of the light fixtures fall. You jumped out of the way just in time, the spotlight missing you by inches. You landed flat on your back on the floor the same time the spotlight did, both of you going down with a huge thump. You vaguely noted that the wires on the spotlight had ripped, and one of them was tangled around your ankle. It appeared to also be caught in the heel of your boot.
Suddenly, you saw a spark, and before you could even blink, the spark evolved into a full-blown fire. You screamed, attempting to scramble away. However, as soon as you got up, you fell again, and a shooting pain went up your leg. Fuck, you'd forgotten about the wire.
"Somebody call 911!" you yelled.
⌦ -- -- Buck's pov
"Tell us more about this fire, cap?" Buck prompted from where he sat in the backseat of the engine.
"Electrical fire at Lavender Plaza. There was a concert happening-"
"Wait, Lavender Plaza?" Buck exclaimed. "That's where Y/n L/n is performing!" His mouth was open in awe, and he turned to look at his crewmates. "Oh my god, you guys have no idea how much I wanted to go see that concert. I'm actually in love with her," he gushed. "Holy shit, is she okay, though?"
"Yes, the victim's name is Y/n L/n. Apparently, one of the spotlight fixtures fell onstage. It's an electrical fire - not too big, but still enough to be dangerous, especially since Y/n is unable to escape due to a wire around her ankle," Bobby continued.
"Guys, we have to go save her," Buck yelled.
"That's what we're doing right now," Eddie, Hen, and Chimney said in unison.
Buck's eyes grew impossibly wider. "Holy shit, I'm about to meet my celebrity crush!" he exclaimed.
⌦ -- -- y/n's pov
You nearly cried of relief when you heard the sirens approaching. The fire had engulfed most of the stage area opposite you, but luckily, you were in the safe zone for now.
The firefighters jumped into action, literally. You coughed at the CO2 from the fire extinguishers. As soon as the fire was put out, you saw a firefighter leap over the spotlight, landing next to you. You vaguely heard someone reprimand him - "Buck! Be careful!".
The firefighter - Buck, apparently - only gave a thumbs up in response.
"Okay, Y/n," he said, light blue eyes looking down at you in concern. "Don't you worry, I'm gonna get you free."
You nodded. "How do you know my name?"
"Buck over here is a big fan," you heard a voice to your left say. A woman with glasses set down a first aid kit next to you. "I'm Hen. Does it hurt anywhere, honey?"
"Um, I think I broke my leg or something, cause it really hurts."
Hen nodded in acknowledgement.
"Alright," Buck piped up. "It looks like the wire is just caught on your boot, so if we unbuckle this thing, you'll be free."
"Oh my god," you said. "Thank you."
"Hey, you're pretty much Cinderella, now," Buck joked as he finished unbuckling your boot. He held it up. "You know, with the lost shoe and all that."
"Does that make you my prince charming, then?" you teased.
Buck blushed, stammering. Before he coukd get out a response, Hen and another paramedic lifted you onto a gurney, wheeling you away.
⌦ -- --
You were breathing steadily into the oxygen mask, just as Hen had instructed you. Then, you spotted Buck making his way towards where you were currently sitting on your stretcher. He was still clutching your boot.
"Hey," you said. "Thanks again for saving me."
"Hi," Buck breathed. "Is this real?"
"Unfortunately for me, yes," you grumbled, casting a forlorn look at your broken leg. You remembered how your assistant had told you to 'break a leg' earlier. The irony.
"Right, no, of course, I didn't mean it like that! Oh god, I'm so sorry!" he rambled.
"It's okay," you laughed. "You just saved my life, I'm probably gonna love you forever, now."
Buck blushed a deep crimson. "Can I have your autograph?" he asked. "This probably isn't an appropriate time, but I mean, your hands aren't broken or anything, so I figured it'd be fine? If you're fine? If you're fine with it, not if you're fine in general, cause you know, you just broke your leg and everything." he snapped his mouth shut. "I'm gonna stop talking now."
You laughed. Looking at him fondly, you took in his features. His very good looking features, you noted.
"I'd love to give you an autograph," you told him. "I'd even give you a picture, but I'm a mess right now."
"I think you still look great," Buck blurted.
"Thank you," you giggled.
"Hey, if you stop by the hospital later, I'll get you my autograph and a picture. And maybe even dinner, if my prince charming's up for it." You winked.
Hen and another paramedic came to wheel you away. The last glimpse you got of Buck was him still staring ahead, a slightly dazed look in his eye and a smile on his lips.
Yeah, he looked like a prince charming to you.
---------
a/n: okay before you start thinking that reader getting caught in the wire is inaccurate, id like to say that ive been trapped under those big wire rope things before when i was younger, and that shit is HEAVY like no joke

Tumblr media
Martin could barely take a seat when Hanna started talking. Irritation clearly etched on her face; it was more than clear that Hanna planned to say out everything she thought about her date, Artur.
Tumblr media
Hanna: (angry and annoyed) I swear, I should have sprinted out of there the moment he opened his mouth! It was like he was auditioning for a one-man show. Having grown up with two sisters and now living with a wife and daughter, Martin had mastered the art of smiling and nodding. However, every now and then, some blunt comments still found their way out of his mouth.
Tumblr media
Martin: (nodding) Hmm… Hanna: (exasperated) I mean, seriously, the guy didn't even ask about me! I could have been a cardboard cutout for all he cared. It was like he had a script in his head, and I was just an audience of one.
Tumblr media
Martin: (chuckling) Hanna: (rolling her eyes) Then he talked about his exes, and surprise, surprise, they were all "self-centered you-know-what's" in his words. I had to endure a whole monologue about how he's the victim in every relationship. Martin: (shakes his head) Hanna: And to top it off, he couldn't keep his hands off his phone. I swear, he was probably swiping right under the table, already planning his next date. Martin: (laughing) Efficient guy. Hanna: (sarcastic) Yeah… let’s give him a trophy… Hanna: (with newfound determination) I even asked him if he thought his exes were the problem in all his relationships, and you know what he said? Martin: (shrugs) Hanna: (mocking Artur's tone) "Well, Hanna, I was just too good for them. They couldn't handle me." Martin: But maybe that's exactly how it was. Hanna: (rolling her eyes) I see you are not taking me seriously... Martin: According to the Council of Men, I must back up a bro… Hanna: (annoyed grunt) Martin: Okay, okay! I don't think he even tried to be polite. Or maybe it was just his way of sifting out, and unfortunately, you didn’t make the cut.
Tumblr media
Hanna: So you're saying he acted like a jerk on purpose? Martin: (Shrugs) I'm just making assumptions. Hanna: Hmm… But how would you behave if you were single and looking for a partner? Martin: (laughs) No, no, no! If I find myself single again, I'll gladly stay that way until the end of time. Hanna: Bullshit, Martin! Start thinking because I need an answer. And note that I do not give up easily! Martin: (grunts) Alright! Hypothetically speaking… Hanna: (eagerly waiting) Martin: I wouldn't put all the eggs in one basket. I'd keep my options open. Hanna: I see... you're a player.

EPISODE 2 : ❛ mark's pretty drummer ex ❜
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Okay so Mark exaggerated it just a tiny bit.
He wasn't going to be that late, his issue was a wardrobe issue, not an issue pertaining to you. He's often used to the groups teasings (mainly Donghyuck's, he just loves talking about you, sometimes Mark thinks he likes you more than he does— not that he likes you or anything, it's just a stupid thought), but whenever it comes to you, it's like they amplify the tormenting words, the tormenting tone, and they reach their hands into Mark's mind to take out his most inner thoughts.
When Mark steps into the music hall, he doesn't try to make a commotion, get through the crowd of pressed together young adults to find his group, he just stays where he is. He shoves his hands into his jacket pockets, leaning against a nearby wall as he observes the stage a few feet before him, he counts how many heads he sees stood by waiting to make their way up. Four. Four?
Where the hell are you?
It's not that Mark is purposefully looking for you, he isn't! He would never! It's just weird to see a band without their leader ordering everyone around. It's more just weird to not see you around, standing in front of your bandmates, you crave the attention, the spotlight, you want to make everyone in the audience forget about other bands, even if your position has been reduced to a drummer.
Mark can't deny that you're pretty good at taking people's attention away, whenever you start doing your thing, it's difficult to not look at you. You're an attention seeker, but you’re also not hard to miss, no one could take their eyes off you even if they wanted to. He makes himself comfortable against the wall, arms crossed over his chest, he's still wondering where you are, he's beginning to think that you didn't even show up, how is Eunoia supposed to function without their drummer?
But then he spots you, he can recognize your hair from miles away (and no that is not weird), you come up out of nowhere, startling Dejun as you do. Mark doesn't hear any of your interaction, for one he's much too far from your standing point, and for two, there are many people around him murmuring, all of their voices mixing together and becoming too loud for him to try to eavesdrop.
Mark doesn't mean to stare you and Dejun down so intently, he might be mistaken for glaring, an uncertain burning look in his eyes that can only be seen as a gaze of jealousy, but he's not jealous. He knows that you and Dejun have nothing going on, not genuinely at least, but there's just a little thought in the back of his mind that continues to bring it up, they could be dating, maybe you finally moved on after realizing that he wasn't worth it—
That's all a little unreasonable though, Mark just knows, call it intuition or something, you aren't dating Dejun, it's a practically impossible prospect. Still, he can't deny that the way you and Dejun are acting is enough to make him dig his nails into his own arm, trying to contain his unsaid irritation.
But all that irritation immediately washes away the moment he hears a familiar announcing voice. "Please welcome Eunoia to the stage!" A small smile comes to his face upon seeing the group begin shuffling their way up to the stage, they are all so cute, he can say that.
Mark's eyes never stray off you, the traits of a guy whose mind isn't totaled consumed by his ex at all. He doesn't pay kind to those thoughts, focusing on the about to perform band (well more just you than the band, but he IS looking at them as well! He swears!).
You're completely unaware to his presence, and thank god, because how would Mark even begin to explain the way he's staring so intently? Like he has some goal in mind? Staring in a way that makes it seem like he wasn't the reason your whole entire relationship ended in a huge blowup.
The thoughts are barely able to fester in Mark's mind, though, because the music snaps him out of it. The song is great, not too fast but not too slow as well, Dejun's voice really compliments the instrumental, he's a good singer.
Mark thinks he would've preferred watching you sing the song, though.
The lyrics have you written all over them, Mark can just tell. He's gotten used to recognizing the little things about you, he can picture it in his head, you standing in your office, pacing back and forth as you go over different lyrics to place in this melody. The image comes easily to his mind because he's seen it many times before, the way you write is beautiful.
You, are beautiful, but Mark shuts down the idea before the thought even comes up.
It seems that as soon as the set starts, it ends, but Mark's eyes don't leave you even then, and he gives his best applause as his gaze follows your specific movements. Thank god you don't catch him, it'd be embarrassing, you would never let him live it down (and neither would any of his bandmates, Hyuck would make fun of him for years).
You're much too into your own things, a small laugh escaping your lips as you listen to a stupid joke Jaemin is saying, shoving your drumsticks into your pocket. He sighs and gets off the wall, walking off towards the rest of the band, he'll come up with a lie, he just got in a few minutes ago, yeah, that's a pretty decent lie, he'll stuck with that.
You don't see him leave, at least, he hopes.

Act 12
Episode 1: The Bing Bang Dream
Working w/ Maybelle Lace
Note: As you read, you will see that some sentences highlighted in a different color, this is what they indicate.
Pink: Flashback of the past
Blue: The Character(s) is/are acting
❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀❀
Tumblr media
???: Its dangerous, so make sure to hold onto our hands.
Sakuya: Okay!
???: Come take a look, Sakuya. The ocean continues on to the other side.
Tumblr media
Sakuya: The ocean is so big!
???: That's right.
???: Did you know, Sakuya? In this town--
.....
Citron: …uya… Sakuya... Are you alright?
Tumblr media
Sakuya: ...ngh.
Sakuya: Huh...? Why am I...?
Citron: You had been crying in your sleep. Did you have a scary dream?
Sakuya: ….I can't remember much of it but I think it was about something nostalgic. It made me feel lonely…
Citron: A nostalgic dream? Was it the time when the Big Bang created the universe?~
Sakuya: I don’t think it was from that long ago..!
Citron: Oh! We must eat breakfast soon, or we’ll miss practice!
Sakuya: You’re right! Let’s hurry!
....…
Misumi: Wasn’t that guy with the enemy?
Tumblr media
Muku: Who is he?
Tenma: Wait, what IS your name?
Sakuya: Oh, my name is Saku.
Tenma: Right, apparently, this guy’s searching for the planet he was born on.
Izumi: (Rehearsals for the second part are going smoothly because of the success from the first half. The advantage of having a second part is that we can make use of both strong and weak points from the first half.)
Izumi: (The members that appeared in the first part of the play already feel comfortable with their roles because of their prior appearance, and since the Spring Troupe members finally get to make their appearance in the second part, they have a high level of enthusiasm.)
Izumi: (Everyone’s collective energies is creating a good atmosphere in the practice room.)
Izumi: Let’s take a short break.
Chikage: Since the atmosphere of the play has already been set from the beginning, everything has a fresh and different feel from the usual.
Itaru: I’m getting excited now that the costumes are complete.
Tumblr media
These men (づ ̄ ³ ̄)づ
Tsuzuru: Well, this IS the kind of fantasy feel you love after all.
Itaru: I've been found out.
Tumblr media
Citron: Itaru is easy to understand.
Sakuya: I’m so happy I finally get to perform with the spring troupe!
Citron: Now, you will no longer feel lonely, Sakuya! Dreaming of the Big Bang will only make you cry.
Tsuzuru: What the? How are those two things even connected?!
Sakuya: I can’t remember exactly how it went but I don’t think it was about the Big Bang!
Izumi: Is it true that you cried from your dream?
Tumblr media
Sakuya: Oh…well… It’s a dream that I’ve been having every now and then.
Sakuya: The scenery is unfamiliar to me... but it’s not a scary dream though.
Citron: If Sakuya cries from his dreams again, all of the members of the Spring Troupe are required to gather in room 101.
Sakuya: But everything is okay though!
Chikage: I’ll be there anytime if it’s for our leader.
Tsuzuru: No need to be shy about it Sakuya.
Masumi: I’ll go if I’m awake.
Itaru: Yeah… he’s definitely not coming.
...…
Tumblr media
Masumi: Should we get started?
Izumi: Hmm, let’s wait a bit longer… In anticipation of the performance soon, this afternoon—
*Door opens*
Tumblr media
Rento: Yo.
Akashi: …Um, sorry to bother you.
Izumi: Oh, hey you guys!
Izumi: Thanks again for providing the wonderful lighting during the first part of the performance!
Izumi: It’s because of you guys, that we were able to take our production to a higher level, and the audience absolutely loved it.
Rento: Well, ain’t that swell.
Akashi: N-No, it was nothing… Izumi… it’s because you gave me such wonderful colors…
Masumi: Too close.
Tumblr media
Akashi: ?!
Izumi: Masumi?
Masumi: Four meters away.
Izumi: Why?!
Itaru: The Masumi sensor went off.
Citron: A forecast of the storm of love!
Tumblr media
Kazunari: Renton!
Rento: Hey! I brought over the CD that I bought the other day.
Kazunari: Yippee! Gimme gimme!
Izumi: (As expected of the two with high social skills, they became friends before I knew it.)
Tetsuro: …
Izumi: Tetsuro! Didn’t see you there!
Tetsuro: …
Akashi: Ah…
Izumi: (I wonder if they’re seeing each other eye to eye? Maybe they’d get along well since they’re both the quiet type.)
Tenma: Both Tetsuro and our two new guys sure have strong personalities.
Rento: The troupe members here are also characters.
Tumblr media
Yuki: Can’t deny that.
Izumi: You guys are all reliable though because of your skills.
Rento: It’s a small theater, so we can only do so much but let’s make the second half even better than the first.
Akashi: I-I’ll do my best…
Izumi: Now that you mention it, it would be nice if we could upgrade our equipment a bit more.
Rento: Yeah, you’re right… last time I brought in my own equipment.
Izumi: But, if we can make this performance a success, we may be able to renovate the theater and level up in various ways!
Rento: Well then, let’s do our best.
Kazunari: Does this mean you’ll continue working with us?
Rento: Well, I’ll do it as long as I don’t get fired.
Akashi: Ah, me too
Izumi: Great!
Izumi: Alright, first, I’d like to reintroduce you to the leading roles of the second half of the show, starting with Sakuya.
Sakuya: I’m Sakuya Sakuma and I’m the lead for the second half of the show. Once again, I look forward to working with you.
Rento: Yea, nice to meet’cha.
Akashi: What bright… colors.
Izumi: (In addition to the high level motivation, the staff has been strengthened, and the interpretation the troupe members have of their roles have deepened through the success of the first half.)
Izumi: (If we can progress without a hitch until the curtains open, our second half will definitely be a success as well!)

*Phone rings*
Reni: …

Yukio: Hello?
Reni: It’s me, kamikizaka.
Yukio: Reni?! Oh, thank god… I need you to listen to me!
Reni: Huh? What’s wrong?
Yukio: My daughter came to see my play the other day!
Reni: O...oh… I see.
Yukio: I was happy when you and I talked over the phone but I'd didn't think I'd be able to see my daughter in person too. It made me really happy.
Yukio: This show was super important to me because it was my last performance in that theater. I’m so glad my daughter got to see it.
Yukio: Now, I’ve moved to a new town and joined theater troupe here. It’s hard work but it’s fulfilling.
Yukio: I‘ve got to admit though, seeing my daughter made me miss everyone else in Japan.
Reni: …I’ll bring you back to Japan. That’s what I promised you.
Yukio: Yeah… Oh, speaking of which, what’s up with you today?
Reni: Actually, there’s something I’ve been meaning to talk to you about.
Reni: I was talking with Kashima regarding your disappearance and heard that you left the theater world due to “certain circumstances”.
Reni: I didn’t get to ask you directly the last time we talked but I ended up hearing about the incident from Kusumi Ikaruga.
Reni: With the help of Syu, I managed to get some information which led me to a certain person.
Reni: I understand you are keeping silent for the sake of your troupe’s members here in Japan. However, in order to properly corner the opponent, I need this information.
Reni: I want you to believe in me and tell me the truth.
Yukio: …
Reni: If my understanding of the situation is correct, then the one who banished you from the theater world in Japan was—

JFlare is not homophobic, he is not transphobic, he is not a groomer nor is he a pedophile. By your logic, a lot of people, including parents, are pedophiles or groomers because we send our kids to school, participate in sports, or attend the Catholic church or other religious institutions where dangerous people are present. It's your prerogative to dislike JFare, it's your prerogative to even hate him. However, to defame his character on YouTube, you moved from your personal feelings to slander and libel, which are illegal. You and your cohorts are now also bullying and harassing him and I feel that I have no other recourse but to start legal proceedings. According to the attorney, this constitutes both libel and slander. According to YouTube's policies and procedures, as per the beginning of the litigation process, I have to formally request that you take the video down and cease and desist all harassment and bullying toward JFlare. I would also like to suggest that you and your cohorts retract any false statements you've made about his character.
Okay, the first half of what you said is nonsense.
None of what you said didn't make sense because one thing has nothing to do with the other. Let me define grooming for you;
the action of attempting to form a relationship with a child or young person, with the intention of sexually assaulting them or inducing them to commit an illegal act such as selling drugs or joining a terrorist organization.
How does sending your child to school or church equate to grooming?
I mean, yeah, a kid can get groomed by teachers, mentors, priests... since you wanna bring in the Catholic church.
Hell, even parents themselves can abuse their own kids... but a parent being a parent and sending their kid to do extracurriculars doesn't come close to sexual grooming.
What we're talking about is sexual grooming.
There are multiple screenshots of Flare acting inappropriately with minors and not doing anything to separate himself from those discussions. He's encouraged someone to wait until they're 18 to receive a gift that was nsfw related.
My video was intended to inform the community about his actions and to spread awareness. His community was not a safe environment for his younger audience. So what if his server and streams were switched to 18+?
The damages were already done by allowing people who were groomers and pedos in and allowing them access to kids. Nothing was slanderous if they were true. Don't try to scare me with your legal terminology, because not only could I search those up myself but I have friends who are lawyers as well.
Also, you just solidified the point that some of Flare's fan base go out and harass people who oppose him. Which there was evidence of.
And the fact that you're threatening legal action on a whack ass site like Tumblr, under an anonymous submission, and not even providing any information about yourself?
You don't even know me.
I don't even know if you're in the same country as me. Honestly, this was quite funny to read. If you are affiliated with Flare, I hope you enjoy licking his ass clean. Thank you for the intimidating message, I hope you have a good day.
If anyone's confused by this whole ordeal, please look into the attached links here & here for more information.

romeo and juliet ! scaramouche x gn!reader
Tumblr media
synopsis the play you’ve been preparing yourself nearly the entire year for was finally about to begin. except in that time, you’ve fallen for the male lead. 
contains fluff, translations of the words are in parenthesis, sfw
a/n i didn't proofread i wrote this before going to bed, oh and i shortened the lines! if the translations are wrong, please lmk :)
Tumblr media
“scara, about the um… kiss scene, just kiss me on the cheek, okay? you tell him, you weren’t comfortable with the idea of his lips meeting yours. you were already struggling with him pouring his heart out to you through his cheesy lines. 
“okay.” the cerulean haired boy continued to fix his costume, fidgeting in it. you were too, the costumes had too many decorations. the material was thick, and it was insanely hot. or was it just you? 
the curtains swing open, and the spotlight is on the two of you. 
“and palm to palm is holy palmers kiss,” you hold the palm of your hand against his, “have not saints, and holy palmers too?” your hand is sweating too much, quit it out! you scold yourself, his hand.. is so warm. his hands are so pretty– scaramouche gives you a look, it’s your line. right. “ay, pilgrim, lips that they must use in prayer.” you speak slowly, trying to avoid stuttering. you know that you’ve both worked your asses off for this moment, so you couldn’t screw up.
“oh then, dear saint, let lips do what hands do.” the spotlight reflects on his hair, his eyelashes are long, but you’ve got the clearest view of his eyes. those beautiful eyes stare into yours, making you feel even more nervous than before. "let lips do what hands do." to feel the warmth of one another. you hated that you had to know what it meant. 
( juliet denies romeo a kiss)
“saints do not move, though grant for prayer’s sake.” you chuckle. this is it. the kiss scene. where “lips do what hands do”. he intertwines his fingers with yours, “then move not, while my prayer's effect I take.” scaramouche leans in and kisses your cheeks. his lips are so soft, you think as his breaths tickles your skin. he retreats back and looks at you. looks at you like he’s in love, like he could not remember how life was before you. you could not tell if he was acting or not. 
(romeo takes his shot and kisses juliet)
for a moment, it’s complete silence. you haven’t said your line yet. this again? he gives you another look. you let yourself give in to your impulses, to your desires. you cup both of his cheeks and kiss him on the lips, the audience becomes loud and cheers. his lips are softer than earlier. you pull away and you see scaramouche in a daze, completely shocked. his expression is empty but his eyebrows are raised. in the spotlight, it was visible to everyone how red his ears were. 
now it’s your turn to give him that look. what are you waiting for? go ahead, it’s your turn. 
“thus from my lips, by yours, my sin is purged.” his voice starts out soft, then he regains his cool and remembers how hard he’s worked. “then have my lips the sin that they have took.” you walk around the stage, “sin from thy lips? give me my sin again.” or in other words, basically kiss me again.  scaramouche takes your hand and you turn around. you both inch closer to one another, you feel his shadow cast over yours and his warm breaths. you lose yourself in the moment and forget about the audience, all you can do is look at him like there’s no tomorrow. 
(juliet takes "romeo's sin", and romeo insists that he takes it back-- kiss her again.)
you push him away gently, but still your hand in his, and you walk. you laugh, “you kiss by the book.” 
i wish you’d kiss me again.
– dialogue from scara’s pov. 
“then move not, while my prayer's effect I take.” he watches you look at him with your lovesick eyes, watching as you drown in the beauty of them. i just have to lean in to kiss them, no big deal. he convinces himself. he gently kisses both of your cheeks, and goes back to where he stood. he looks at you, waiting for you to say your line.  all of the sudden, you let go of his hands and find them cupping his cheeks. you lean closer to him and then kiss him. holy shit.  
when you pull away, it takes every fiber in his body to not chase you and melt into your lips. if only this moment could last forever. he sees your expression, your smug look and he knows how uncomposed he is. he hates how nervous you make him, and how he isn’t himself around you. the crowd emerges, the theatre filled with their voices. 
he gulps, “thus from my lips, by yours, my sin is purged.” 
“then have my lips the sin that they have took.” 
“sin from thy lips? give me my sin again.”
kiss me again.
“you kiss by the book.”
kiss me again.

tw: beginnings of an anxiety attack midway through
the show was a disaster.
lynette thinks it’s because of sabotage. lyney thinks it’s because of him.
when he palmed the wrong card at the start of their act, he should’ve taken it as a sign that nothing else would go well. instead, his smile became wider, raised his voice louder, swept his arms in more and more elaborate gestures. the stage lights hid the audience’s faces, but he could still hear their whispers, their judgments, their disappoint. this is not what i paid for.
that’s why he refunded their tickets. it’s the least he could do.
he sends his sister home while he inspects their props. she already did it while he was talking with the ticket office, but he has to be sure that the fault lies with him. there’s no sign of tampering, and all equipment remains in its rightful positions, waiting for tricks that would never happen. they aren’t to blame – he is.
do you really call yourself a great magician?
the theater is empty. lyney sits cross-legged onstage, facing the shuttered overhead lights. it’s cold, amplified by the empty seats and corridors. he’s cloaked in darkness, with only the stars shining through the windows.
i should go back. the others will be worried.
are they, though? do they really want such a pathetic brother back?
he squeezes his eyes shut. he picks himself up, stumbles down the hallway to exit through the back door. security locked the front entrance hours ago. he couldn’t bring himself to leave among his dissatisfied patrons.
the court of fontaine is a different entity at night. whereas light makes water seem friendly, night makes it seem unforgiving. streetlamps illuminate his path, boots echoing around him. he walks with his back straight, head held high, as if walking home after a successful show, full of bravado. this is just an act, a mask to hide his turmoil, like the teardrop he paints on his cheek before every show.
he slows. the stars accompany the moon, yet no one accompanies him. he leans against the railing to peer down at the lower levels of the city. storefronts are darkened. stalls are covered with canvas. only the faintest light radiates behind closed curtains, followed by hushed voices and rustling blankets. soon, it feels like he’s the only one left awake.
that’s why only silence answers him when he curses. “dammit!”
people make mistakes. it’s natural. he doesn’t because he knows the consequences. all he’s ever known is that a single misstep can mean being thrown to the wolves, to be claimed by the darkness without a way back. as the oldest, he can’t afford wrong moves. it isn’t just him who suffers, but his brothers and sisters.
his hand sneaks up to his chest. it’s heavy. his heart is racing. his breaths are quick. stay calm…stay calm. i…have to go back. i can’t…let the others know–
“lyney?”
he jumps. when he raises his head, his vision is blurred. tears form in the corners of his eyes. why?
why did you have to find me like this?
lynette stands on his right, freminet on his left. their gestures are light across his arms as they guide him to sit down. “you were taking so long,” lynette whispers. “we were worried about you?”
what’s there to worry about? i’m fine.
“no, you aren’t. you’re always like this when a show goes badly.”
freminet nods. “it- it’s hard to keep it together all the time. you can be frustrated. we aren’t supposed to be perfect.”
i’m supposed to be. what good am i if i can’t even put on a magic show?
“it’s not just you.” a hand rests over his own to quell his trembles. “i’m onstage, too. fremmy designs our props. our brothers and sisters help make our stage costumes. you might be the one doing the sleight of hand, but we work together to make the show work.”
“a failure now means success later,” freminet adds. “we learn and we grow. that’s how it is.”
lyney draws in a shuddering breath and squeezes his eyes shut, rubbing to clear them of tears. lynette continues to hold his other hand. “it’s okay to cry.”
that’s all the permission he needs.
neither his sister nor brother speak, simply press against him as his tears flow down his cheeks. how unbecoming of him. he watched his sister cry after she was rescued from that terrible place; he watched his brother cry when he learned that his mother would never come back. he embraced them both, lent them his shoulder, murmured soothing words. it's okay. i'm here. i'll never leave you.
even if they don't do that for him, their presence is enough to reassure him that they mean the same sentiment.

Inspired by this because @missamyshay is a menace
MJ is exhausted.
She’s not sure what she expected about becoming the lead— the grueling rehearsals and back and forth and back again from fickle directors is something MJ’s been more than aware of ever since she started auditioning.
She’s worked her way up from the chorus to the secondary, never really getting the chance to be front and center until her last play Turtle Drive became a runaway hit— surprising everyone, least of all herself, with how well people responded to it.
Critics were divided, as to be expected from a biopic of a forgotten 90s singer but audiences were engrossed— the one bright spot consistently done in reviews being that of MJ’s performance as the stereotypically sassy Black best friend, having a song that felt on the nose in its satire despite how much MJ tried to sell it.
And sell it she did, with every ounce of her being— determined to prove that she had the chops to make it and move above the bit parts she’s always been relegated to.
Tuttle Drive’s success paved the way for her role now as Edith in Taking Flight, a monstrous beast of a thing that sought to combine all of Shakespeare’s works together in a fictional town out of New England.
Edith was a difficult character, an impossible amalgamation of Juliet, Ophelia, Katharina, and Beatrice that made MJ’s head spin. When she first read the script, she had thought it was daring and inventive— interesting and so very different.
Now, after weeks of rehearsal on a spinning turn table and going over numbers that felt less innovative and more confounding— MJ was beginning to wonder if she had made a mistake.
It’s what she’s thinking of, amongst other things like what she’ll finally get to eat today when she sees a shadow pass over her— glancing up and seeing a familiar rush of red and blue.
“How you doing tonight, ma’am?” Spider-Man asks, MJ smirking as she glances up and then keeps walking.
“Just fine, spidey,” she says, imagining the look on Peter’s face underneath the mask. He has a habit of doing this, finding her on his patrol in what the calls an attempt to make sure she’s okay.
What MJ isn’t so fond off are the Daily Bugle reports later, hating the idea that her new play might get even more press in all the wrong ways as she hears him snort.
“What’s the hold up, lady?” He says, his voice shifting until it’s that odd mix of a Transatlantic newscaster and old-school New Yorker. “You got somewhere to be?”
“I do actually,” she says, glancing up as he hops from one branch to another. “My husband’s waiting for me.”
“Is he now?” Peter asks, MJ seeing some tourists out of the corner of her eye. “Must not be a good one then.”
“Excuse me?” She asks, glancing up only for Peter to make his presence known in the weirdest way possible.
He knows that she loves him entirely but the more spidery parts of him were her least favorite.
Which is why Peter— hanging upside down right in front of her— was all but an act of war as she frowns.
“Pretty lady like you, walking the streets all by yourself?” He clicks his tongue in disapproval. “What kinda man is that?”
“Are you saying I can’t walk home by myself?” She asks teasingly, watching as he tilts his head.
“I think you can do anything you set your mind to Miz Watson,” he says, his tone still joking even if MJ can still hear the sincerity in it. He knows how much she’s been worried about the play and while he can’t say as much here and now— with a family of tourists staring at the two of them intently. “Why, you’re a famous Broadway star.”
“Not that famous.”
“Famous enough that it can be dangerous, walking here all by your lonesome,” he says, hearing the laugh in his voice.
MJ glares at him, the white eyes of the mask staring back at her.
“Well, miz Watson?” He asks, MJ holding back the urge to laugh from his dumb accent. “What do you say?”
“I guess,” she says with a laugh.
“Trust me, ma’am. No sirree, you won’t regret it,” he says, seeing the bystanders around them turn.
This will definitely end up trending somewhere, seeing the phone angled in her direction.
Never have, she thinks to herself as Spider-Man loops his arms with hers and leads them forward— trusting him to take her home.

It’s time for the school play and it’s Romeo & Juliet. Mikasa gets the role of Juliet and Eren couldn’t give a fuck about the play until he found out Romeo and Juliet kiss, in front of everybody. And now Eren is obsessively after the role, only he can’t act to save his life
There's this animanga from the late 80s/early 90s that I adore called Ranma 1/2 that has a Romeo and Juliet high school theater production arc and all I can picture is that but with Eremika as Ranma and Akane. I'm going to try to break free from that restraint.
Okay, so first things first, if Mikasa got the role and Eren didn't, that means she auditioned and he probably didn't bother. So he's shit out of luck by the time he finds out the guy cast as Romeo (Jean??? Maybe???) is going to be kissing Mikasa. This means Eren has two options: to make sure the kiss doesn't happen or to steal the role.
So, what does Eren do?
He gets himself appointed to the stage crew, of course, and begins doing everything he can to make Jean's life a living hell.
He's smacking into him with set pieces, sabotaging his props, he is orchestrating wardrobe malfunctions left and right. During rehearsals, every time they get to the kiss he knocks something over and interrupts them. The director is getting fed up but they also can't help but love watching the drama unfold before them, so they let Eren do his thing for the most part and wonder what is going to happen when the boy can't delay the kiss any longer.
Eren's already on top of that. He knows he can't keep dropping set pieces when there's an audience because he doesn't want to ruin the play for Mikasa, but he also would rather die than see her kiss another guy. Therefore, he needs Jean out of the picture. He concluded long ago that if he's going to keep Mikasa's lips for himself he has to give Jean mono. What better way to put him out of commission and prevent the kiss than the kissing disease itself? Eren loves the irony. Or, he would if he paid attention in English class long enough to know what irony is.
And so, Eren's quest to give Jean mono is already well under way by the time he enters the scene as a member of the stage crew.
But wait, you may say. How is Eren going to infect another kid with mono if he doesn't have it? You forget that Eren's father is a doctor. Eren knows from dinner time conversation that there's been an outbreak of it at a nearby high school and tons of those kids have it. All Eren has to do is get in touch with one of them and obtain their spit. He is not bound by the strictures of common decency or shame, so he starts hitting kids at the other school up, trying to find one who is just as depraved as he is who is willing to sell him their diseased saliva. And you know he manages to find one.
He cuts school takes the bus to the next town over , exchanging fifty dollars for a baby food jar full of saliva from a fellow unhinged teenage, then hurrying back to campus before the virus loses potency.
He arrives just in time for lunch and immediately gets busy contaminating poor Jean's food when he isn't looking.
Then he sits back and crosses his fingers that Jean's symptoms will hit before opening night (it takes 4 - 6 weeks for the infection to brew). He also makes sure to keep Jean's putrid lips off Mikasa. His on-stage kerfuffles have been protecting more than just his own tender heart. He's got to keep Jean from infecting Mikasa, lest Eren find himself onstage as Romeo without his Juliet.
Jean is looking concerningly healthy as opening night approaches, though, and Eren is beginning to think he's going to have to go back to the other kid's house and demand a refund when, with only two days to spare, Jean succumbs to Eren's machinations and falls ill with mononucleosis.
The director is freaking out. Jean can't be in the play if he has mono but who is going to fill in for him?
Eren to the rescue. Surprise, surprise. He has the part memorized.
The director has no choice. The show must go on even if it means Romeo recites all his lines like a robot and everyone in the audience can tell he's slipping Juliet some tongue when he kisses her. At least, the audience all tentatively agree as they try to find a bright spot in the mess of a play they just witnessed, the two leads have tons of chemisty.

Why Have You Waited So Long? Chapter 2
Chapter 1
WC: 2380
Tags: Suicidal Thoughts, Near Death Experience, Hurt/Comfort
Phantom was getting worse. The solitude had made him sick, he knew it would happen. It wasn’t in ghoul’s nature to be alone, his system was protesting, begging Phantom to get help.
Notes: due to a popular demand I present part two including some comfort. just a bit though because I do love angst, OKAY???
Read chapter 2 under the cut or on AO3.
Phantom was getting worse.
The solitude had made him sick, he knew it would happen. It wasn’t in ghoul’s nature to be alone, his system was protesting, begging Phantom to get help.
It wasn’t only his quintessence sounding alarms, trying to hold his small body from breaking with all its might. He saw himself rotting, he was getting paler and paler every day, skinnier too, his eyes were dull, barely any colour left in them, the tips of his horns were cracking and breaking off, crumbling into dust. Every day he woke up with more of it on his pillows.
He couldn’t look at himself in the mirror, so he broke it, pieces of shattering glass assaulting his fist only adding to the sick satisfaction.
He had been barely leaving his room the whole break between European and American tours, only when absolutely needed. To get some food, once every two weeks or so. To sulk through additional rehearsals, pretending he was alive and well.
He wasn’t neither alive nor well.
Phantom felt bad about getting sick, at the beginning, thinking about how his sickness could ruin the rest of the tour. But then he thought Aether could get back, it would be an emergency. Did any of the people that would be met with problems after Phantom’s death deserve him feeling bad about it?
He wanted to say no, but he could never really hate anyone, so he told himself yes. Yes, he was awful for getting sick and yes, he’d be awful for dying, only causing problems.
But Phantom did survive the break. Somehow.
That was even worse than if he wouldn't, now he had to go and act like he was fine not only in front of himself or a few ghouls and Papa, no, now he had to fool thousands.
He didn’t think he’d manage.
He‘d been quiet during their journey, on the bus, in the hotel. He was too tired to speak and no one would listen to him anyway.
The day before the first show Phantom slept as much as possible, forcing his own quintessence to all but knock himself unconscious. He stumbled through preparations for the Ritual, through the soundcheck.
He squeezed out some quintessence that was not concentrated on keeping him alive to give himself somewhat of an energy boost, just before they stepped on stage. He never had any issues with handling the Fantomen, but that night it weighed him down impossibly more.
He just needed to get through the show, he could do that. He’d certainly try.
The lights were so bright. Too bright, even with the darkened lenses of their helmets.
It was too loud, the crowd, the music. 
Phantom’s clothes, even being looser than originally because of how much weight he had lost, were somehow too tight, too constricting.
He couldn’t breathe, he felt impossible weight crushing his chest. 
It hurt so much.
His head was pounding, vision blurry, the sound of blood pumping in his ears nauseating.
Phantom was sure that was it.
He felt awful for it. He couldn’t possibly be such an attention whore to drop dead in the middle of a performance, could he? He had to hold on, he didn’t want to ruin anyone’s night.
The show seemed to last forever, he thought it’d never end. That it’d be his punishment for being such a failure - being stuck in an endless loop of misery and agonising pain.
But it did end, finally.
Phantom doesn’t really remember chucking a bunch of picks at the audience, getting gifts from the fans, the bows. It was easier to zone out, not remember.
Because he’d have to remember the burning of a hand gripping his own, too.
He remembers getting off stage, tumbling down a few small steps and the thud his helmet made as it collided with the floor.
He made it through that one show… but no more.
Tumblr media
“Lus, I- I can’t b- believe, how did we-” Phantom heard someone sobbing. Aurora, he thought, but he couldn’t make a sense out of her choked out words.
Wait.
Where was he?
“I know, sweetheart,” it had to be Cumulus now. Her voice also sounded… wet. “We failed, all of us, but don’t take it out on yourself.”
Phantom was… he was warm? Why was he warm, it was always so cold, what-
“Shhh, don’t freak out,” someone whispered, right into his ear. He panicked, suddenly too warm, too hot, melting. His only instinct was to run away, clawing at what tried to hold him in place. Or who.
Phantom scrambled away and bumped into something that was probably a corner of... wherever he was. He curled into a tight ball, tail wrapped around his body protectively and hissed. He didn’t want to look up, look around. He didn’t want to know where he was, who he was with. 
He just wanted to be gone. He didn’t want to hurt anymore.
“Phantom, hey, hey. It’s okay, you’re safe,” was it Swiss? It sounded like Swiss. 
Why was saying that, why was he lying?
Phantom lifted his head, just a bit, just enough to peek from behind his arms. It was Swiss. 
“Do you want me to get someone else? One of the girls? Rain?” he felt himself shaking his head. It looked like they were in the back lounge of their tour bus, it was turned into a big nest. The multi ghoul was crouching by one end of it, Phantom curled in the corner furthest away from him.
That warmth… was he-  was Swiss touching him?
“Breathe, bug, deep breaths,” he said and Phantom was so tired, so weak, he couldn’t not obey. He tried to breathe, sharp inhales followed by shaky exhales, over and over again.
Swiss was watching him like a hawk, barely even blinking. Phantom tried to curl into himself more, to hide from that intense stare, the attention he was not used to.
It seemed like ages had passed before the quintessence ghoul could be considered even relatively calm. Swiss didn’t move, only offered soothing words from time to time.
Phantom wanted to hate him, hate them all, but he was so exhausted and so lonely, he clinged to every single sound that escaped Swiss’ mouth like a lifeline. He was finally getting something, he finally got noticed. He had to treasure what he was getting now, it’d be over too quickly.
“There you go,” Swiss sighed, all sad. Why was he so sad? Did Phantom ruin the show after all? “Are you back with me?”
Phantom nodded. Was he, really?
“Okay, good. Can I come closer?” He thought about it for a moment? Did he want Swiss to get closer? To touch him? He thought he wanted nothing more in the world but what if it… what if it hurt? “I’ll be gentle, I promise, bug. I need you to trust me.”
Phantom nodded.
Swiss smiled softly, even though his eyes were betraying his sadness. He slowly crawled over to the quintessence ghoul, one hand carefully reaching out. It hovered over Phantom’s knee, Swiss searching for any signs of hesitation on the other’s side. He let it gently fall when he found none.
Phantom flinched, there was no way to prevent that, but soon sobbed in something like… relief.
“Good?” Swiss asked and received a nod in return. “More? Would you like a hug?”
“P- please,” he choked out, his throat tight, eyes burning with tears.
The multi ghoul slowly but surely wrapped his strong arms around Phantom’s shaking form, covering him whole with his body. He immediately went limp, wails tearing out of his throat as Swiss held him. “That’s it, let it out. I’m sorry, I’m so sorry, bug. I’ve got you now, I won’t leave.”
Phantom could barely breathe, he was choking on tears, body convulsing in Swiss’ grip as he clinged to the multi ghoul like he’d turn to dust and disappear and Phantom would never be held again.
“Everything will be okay, I won’t leave you. I won’t let it get bad again, I’ve got you,” Swiss whispered, rocking them back and forth, doing his best to release some of his own quintessence into the room, even if now crying himself. 
How could he, all of them, be so blind, ignorant, awful? How did they miss all the signs, how did they let it get so bad? Why didn’t they take care of him from the beginning? What the fuck was wrong with them?
“N- no, you- you can’t give me h- hope, I can’t hope anymore,” Phantom cried and despite his words clutched Swiss tighter.
“I’m so sorry, I’m so fucking sorry, I-” Swiss sniffled, “there’s nothing I can do to fix it but-”
“Y- you can’t just- just decide to fix it n- now," the quintessence ghoul’s wails only increased in volume. How did they miss how broken he was? “It doesn’t work like that.”
“I know, fuck, I’m so sorry, lemme- please let me try to make it up to you, let me try to make it better, please, Phantom, I’m begging you, let me try.”
“You j- just feel bad I nearly flipped, it- it’s not real,” his words felt like a punch in the guts but Swiss knew how justified it was. He failed so fucking bad.
“No, it’s not- I mean, of course I feel fucking bad, you have no idea how bad. But that doesn’t mean I don’t want you to feel loved, it’s not- fuck, I don’t know what to say,” Swiss’ voice cracked. He thought that if Phantom really did die, he’d go right after him. How did they fail so badly?
“Just… just try, but I-” Phantom was hyperventilating, there was no breath left in his lungs. He hoped it wouldn’t get wasted by the things he wanted to say. “‘M not gonna survive another one, I’m fuckin’ stupid but I- it needs to be real, Swiss. I can’t take any more.”
“Baby… oh, sweetheart,” the multi ghoul sobbed, “I promise you, I’ve got you, ‘m not gonna let anything happen to you, you won’t be alone ever again, fuck, I’m so, so, sorry.”
Phantom didn’t have any more words, neither did Swiss. He could apologise over and over again but it made no sense. He cradled the quintessence ghoul in his arms, tears and snot soaking into each other’s clothes, held him for what seemed like hours. It probably was.
Swiss didn’t know when Phantom blacked out, he thought he did too. He remembers Rain staring down at them from the bus’ corridor with tears flowing down his own cheeks. The multi ghoul nodded at them with a pleading look, silently asking him to join. 
Rain got down on his knees and crawled over to Phantom and Swiss, helping the latter to rearrange them to somewhat of a more comfortable position. They then glued themself to Phantom’s back, squeezing the ghoul between him and Swiss.
Some time later they heard socked feet shuffling in their direction. Dewdrop.
Even before he fully laid down behind Rain, Mountain appeared in the doorway, and it didn’t take much for the three ghoulettes to make their way over to the nest too.
They should all fall onto their knees before Phantom and beg him for forgiveness, but he didn’t want that. He may be stupid for still allowing himself that tiny droplet of hope but all he wanted now was love. He wanted, needed, to be loved.
He truly wouldn’t survive more heartbreak.
Tumblr media
Fans seemed to enjoy Phantom getting more lively, more confident on stage, finally allowing himself some more… intimate interactions with his bandmates. Finally being allowed touch.
But he couldn’t not feel like all the attention he was now getting was just a way for the ghouls to not feel bad about nearly letting him die. He was fine if he didn’t think about it, but at the end of the day he was just a stray animal that had stumbled into their home and they took him in out of pity, to not feel like they were awful people, to not feel guilty.
It would surely end when they got back to the Abbey, he had to soak all the comfort on the road if he wanted to have any chances at living on.
Phantom couldn’t believe it was real when they did return and he was still being seen. He was being invited for cuddles, for movie nights, game nights.
Never left behind, anymore. Never being forgotten.
Touch didn’t burn anymore, it warmed him both outside and inside in the best possible way.
He was… happier. Way happier, even though he felt like a fraud, like a mismatched puzzle piece forcefully shoved among the others. He caught himself thinking about it all ending, a lot. It was a reasonable fear with how it used to be.
Months later, years, when he’d be alone, he’d be vulnerable to the words the vile voice in the back of his head would throw at him. And he would believe them. 
He’d remember his first year on earth and realise his pack had never actually cared for him, they were still pretending, still feeling guilty about his past loneliness, the sickness they missed until it was nearly too late.
But now every time Phantom cries someone hears him. 
They don’t let him feel alone, don’t let him be cold.
“What’s on your mind, bug?” Swiss stopped his racing train of thoughts. Phantom burrowed further into his side. Rain, glued to his back, mumbled something incoherent into his neck.
“Nothing,” the quintessence ghoul sighed.
“You sure? Everything okay?” It was no wonder Swiss worried, they all did now. They were all afraid of doing something wrong, of breaking Phantom again.
“Would you mind shutting up? Tryin’ to sleep here,” Dew snarled with no real venom from Swiss’ other side.
“Let them be,” Mountain scolded him, tightening his hold on the fire ghoul.
“I’m sure,” Phantom whispered into Swiss’ chest and let his eyes slip shut again.
His pack would never forgive themselves for neglecting him like they did, they’d keep doing everything in their power to make him feel loved, cared for, cared about.
And maybe in some time Phantom would stop doubting it was real.
