#I don't pretend my deck is GOOD but it is pretty fun :)

What does your necrovalley deck look like? Ive been trying to find the right combo of cards in it but it's tough!
My deck is frankly overstuffed and inconsistent but it looks like this:
Tumblr media
You can't see the text on these but most of these are common or in the gravekeepers archetype so I'm sure you can find them (or just ask me if you need to, lol). The only important ones that aren't common or gk are Demise of the Land (which I highly recommend, almost mandatory) and Dark Illusion (which is okay and niche useful, I've swapped it in and out at various times).
If I wanted to make this more consistent, aka good, I'd swap out Visionary for another Descendant and jettison Guard, maybe add cat of ill omen, but I like having a diverse deck with flexible strats because it is fun for me. I am worse on purpose. Whoops.
As far as combos I'd recommend:
-If you do not have Quintet Magician already, get it. You won't use it often but when the stars align it is excellent.
-Book of the Moon is not only good for defense but can let you double-up on the effects of Spy or Guard.
-The Iron Wall, AKA: Opponent attacks Spy; Spy flips and summons Nobleman; Attacks Nobleman, which on destruction summons a second Spy facedown; Attacks Spy, which flips and summons Headman, which summons the first Spy from the graveyard facedown. You have just taken three attacks, and can take a fourth, with 0 damage and you still have a free special summon next turn. Your opponent is so fucking mad.
-Spy + Descendent + Headman, all the time. Flip spy, summon Descendent, tribute Spy to destroy your opponents cards, summon Headman, Headman summons the first Spy facedown, tribute Headman to to kill another card. (or the reverse, if descendent is already in the gy: Flip Spy, use Spy to summon Headman, use Headman to summon Descendent and have him tribute the two of 'em.)
-There's a lot of other useful cards in the archetype I skip, notably: Ambusher, which recovers archetype spells and traps from the gy (I have two copies of Necrovalley and a copy of Temple, so I don't consider this worth it, but if you only have one Necrovalley you'll want him); Chief, which makes your own gy immune to Necrovalley (again, with Headman and Stele I don't think this is worth it, and I don't recommend putting a bunch of gy-dependent cards in your deck in the hopes you can get him out); and Shaman, which shuts down your opponents graveyard effects and ability to use field spells (this murders the hell out of Triamids but I took him out when they stopped being meta. If Triamids returns I will bring him back with a vengeance).
-Tons of cards intended for the magician archetypes only specify "spellcaster" (like apple and lemon magician girl), so they'll work with gk monsters! I don't use them anymore because I have more consistent gk cards but I used to rely on them a lot, and you might find them worth having.
-Priorities are always Necrovalley + fusion summon your big boi + get Hidden Temples on the field. Use other effects as needed to hold back your opponent while you do that. Not sure what else there is to say!

Alright, alright! @tgmreader requested I write them a little Jake drabble for my 100 followers celebration!!
Summary: You met Jake in a park. You liked to read, and he liked to jog past and watch you read. You two start meeting outside of the park, and he eventually invites you to hang out at The Hard Deck.
You weren't sure what you were expecting really. You had been sitting in a remote area of the park, looking for some peace and quiet in order to read your book, and you had been granted it save for the occasional jogger who passed you. It wasn't long before you realized the same handsome blond kept jogging past you, and the park was big enough that you knew he was doing it on purpose. The tenth time he jogged past you, you glanced up from your book to see his eyes already on you. You arched an eyebrow at him, and his lips twitched into a smile, feet slowing to a stop before you.
"Can I help you?" you asked, holding back a smile.
"Just enjoying the view," he grinned, stretching his arm out.
You snorted. "Has that line ever worked?"
"Once," he admits with a laugh. "I'm Jake."
"Hi, Jake," you said, smiling coyly up at him. Jake waits for you to give him your name, and when you don't, his smile turns into a small frown.
"You gonna tell me what I should call you, pretty girl?" he asked with a nervous laugh.
"Hm," you hummed, pretending to think. You stood up with a cheery expression. "Nope!"
"Ah, come'on darlin'," he smiled at you again. "What's it gonna take for you to give me your name?"
"Guess we'll have to wait and see," you chuckled, walking past him and towards the exit of the park.
You didn't often go out with your friends for drinks, so you weren't sure why you agreed to this time. They had dragged you to a place called "The Hard Deck" for some "summer fun with the sailors" as they had put it. You had rolled your eyes, but complied nonetheless. So, imagine your surprise when you caught sight of a familiar head of golden hair from your perch at the bar.
Jake walked through the crowd as if he owned the place, and you found yourself feeling surprised at the sight of him in his khakis. It was a good look on him. You couldn't hear him over the crowd, but you did see the looks and eye rolls his companions would give him any time he opened his mouth. It wasn't long before he caught you staring.
Eyes lit up in quiet surprise, his expression quickly shifted into one of mirth. Passing his pool cue over to one of the men on his right, he made a beeline towards where you sat at the bar.
"Well, hey there, sweetheart," he drawled, leaning against the bar and smiling down at you. "Fancy seeing you here. How'd you end up in a place like this?"
"I came out with some friends," you smirked, taking a sip from your bottle. Jake watched as you wrapped your lips around the rim, swallowing thickly. "You didn't say you were in the Navy."
"Well," he smirked, "you didn't really give me much of a chance to say anything, did ya?"
"I suppose not," you concede with a dip of your head. You glance up at him through your eyelashes, a smile slowly making its way onto your lips. Jake returns it, leaning in closer.
"So, about that name."

hi I was wondering if you could do a fluff w felipe, where reader is a 02 leclerc, and the whole grid knows that reader has a crush on felipe and felipe on the reader EXCEPT the leclerc boys. one day reader is rambling about school and felipe stares at her lips and eventually leading to kissing (maybe when they kiss you could add like the reader nervously pushing felipes face away w her palm bc she’s nervous, but they kiss) it’s ok if you don’t want to though
Why Are We Killing Clem? (Felipe Drugovich X Leclerc! Reader)
Fandom: RPF/Formula 1
Requested: Clearly (I loved this, I hope you do too <3) Also, yall please vote on this POV poll
Warnings: none.
POV: First Person (I/me)
W.C. 1003
Summary: Overprotective brothers and crushes aren't a good mix.
As always, my requests are OPEN
MASTERLIST // HITLIST
Tumblr media
~~(^Pinterest)
I am a pretty open book, any of my friends will tell you that. That’s not to say that subtle isn’t my middle name; it is and I can keep a secret when I need to. I just have nothing to hide.
So that might be a lie.
When you have three overprotective older brothers, it’s only normal to fib a little. Like if I had broken that plate or if I borrowed/stole a hoodie or if I liked anyone. Especially when it came to people I liked. Especially if that hypothetical person I liked was also a racing driver. Especially if that hypothetical person was a racing driver for another team. Especially if that hypothetical person was Felipe Drugovich.
Hence why I don’t say anything to them. I would never be allowed to go to a race again! If they knew that I had a crush on Felipe, I would never be allowed out of their sight on race weekends. As far as they are aware, he is just my best friend, and until I see a clear sign that he likes me back, it will stay that way.
I found out from a few of my F2 friends that they were heading to the next race early to hang out and party before getting back to work since there was a gap week, and it took a little (a lot) of begging before I was allowed to join them. Granted, I am old enough to make my own decisions, but I travel with Charles. It just seemed like the nice thing to do. 
During this week, I still had online classes, so I needed to work around my academic obligations when it came to having fun with my friends. One day, in particular, I had an essay to work on, so I brought my computer since the plan was to hang out at the hotel’s pool.
I sat off to the side, typing away while most of my friends played volleyball in the pool. I was not too far away, just enough so the water being splashed between teams would not destroy my laptop.
“Are you going to join the game?” A voice asked, causing me to look up and see Felipe standing beside me. He took a seat toward the end of the lounge chair I was on as he looked at my screen, seeing how far I was. He noticed I was not anywhere close to being done, but something caught his eye, so he asked about it. “What are you working on?”
“An essay for my English class,” I did not delve into it, thinking he would not care. “I decided to relate it to one of the topics in my major since we could choose the topic.”
“Is there a reason you’re being vague?” He joked, leaning forward to read a little bit of the paper. “I’m interested in what you’re doing.”
“You’re just saying that because you don't want to get in the water, and I’m the only one that’s sitting on the deck,” I chuckled nervously. Felipe and I were never this close when we were alone. Even if our friends were not that far away, they were too busy with the game to notice anything happening between us. “You don't have to pretend you’re interested in my academics.”
“Who said I was faking it?” He feigned hurt as he put a hand to his chest. “I’m offended you think so little of me.”
“You are the least offended person I know,” I laughed, setting my laptop aside. “You are the most laid-back, chill person ever. There is no way this offends you.”
“You always listen to me rant about racing. Maybe I want to hear you rant about your interests,” Felipe whispers. “You always give your opinions on the race or our strategies, but we never talk about what you like. Now, we have the chance, and I’m all yours.”
I don’t know if it was the general sincereness of someone being interested in my life or the fact that it was Felipe, but I started rambling. I explained the entire timeline of the topic I chose, going off on tangents as I did so, and throughout the entire spiel, he remained interested. He nodded along, and even provided his own input here and there but left most of the discussion up to me. He also helped me figure out a subtopic I could use for my paper. Maybe I really just needed to talk it out with someone, so I was super appreciative of him.
Felipe, on the other hand, found it endearing. He didn’t even think before he leaned forward, and in the middle of my sentence, he placed his lips on mine. At first, I froze and tried to push him away until I realized.
This is the guy I have been pinning after for who knows how long, and now, he is kissing me.
I moved my hands from his chest to wrap around his neck as I closed my eyes and kissed him back, leaning into his body. It was just like I thought it would be, fireworks exploding between us. It was just us, no one else.
“I’m telling Arthur!” That French fucker.
“Clem, I will kill you!” I shouted as I laughed in embarrassment, knowing that all of our friends just witnessed our first kiss. I leaned against Felipe’s shoulder as we both looked over at our friends who were mocking us until the sound of the pool gate distracted some of them.
“Why are we killing Clem?” A voice I immediately recognized as Arthur said as he walked through the gates to the pool area. My eyes grew wide as I jumped away from Felipe, but by then, I knew he already saw us. He looked confused as he came into my line of sight before pointing at us. “And why are you and Felipe so red? Don’t lie to us.”
“I am so dead.”

Strip Poker
Tumblr media
SUMMARY | Hendery has been eyeing you for quite awhile and when your mutual friends decide on a game of strip poker, Hendery is in it to win it. His prize: you. PAIRINGS | Hendery/Fem!Reader GENRE | smut, unprotected sex, fingering, dirty talk, oral (female receiving), fluff RATING | Mature LENGTH | 4,310 words AUTHOR’S NOTE | I hope this turned out okay!
Tumblr media
"I have the perfect game to play for Game Night!" Linda, your roommate and best friend in all things chaotic, clapped her hands in front of her as she looked at you and the guys. Johnny was standing next to her, his cheeks awfully red, traces of lipstick at the corner of his mouth.
"So?" Doyoung asked, eyeing the woman curiously. "Are you gonna tell us, Linda?"
Linda smiled and tugged on Johnny's collar. "Why don't we play Strip Poker?"
The rest of your friends looked at Linda and blinked. Thinking among themselves, the guys all thought it was the best game that Linda ever proposed, having wanted to see everyone get naked.
Particularly to see you naked.
Hendery smiled, slung an arm around you and pulled you close. "I'm game."
"You're crazy, woman." You shot Linda a look and when she caught your eyes, she let out a wide smile.
"Oh c'mon Y/N. It'll be fun!" She dragged you to the living room with her, looking forward to the outcome of this game.
You were pretty sure it would lead to something very sexy… especially since Hendery seemed like he was interested in your nudity, even though he hid it really well. The only time you saw him stare at your boobs was when you wore dresses that showed them off. If you wanted to play strip poker, it would mean revealing some skin yourself.
"I'm determined to get Linda naked." Taeyong joked, playing on his phone and watching what was going on in the living room.
"Jokes on you," Johnny began to tease Taeyong. "My girlfriend is pretty good at poker."
"That I am!" Linda kissed Johnny's cheek before sliding into his lap and beginning to shuffle the cards.
You watched as your friend expertly dealt each of the players their first hand. Once she was done, she picked up her own deck of cards and began to deal again. With Linda sitting comfortably on Johnny's lap, he grabbed the back of her neck to pull her lips against his. Your jaw dropped, stunned by the sudden intimate moment. But you quickly shook your head, trying to calm down. Maybe if you tried not to watch, you wouldn't end up blushing.
But how could you? That kiss was so beautiful and intimate. He even took a second to stroke her hair with one hand. It made you feel jealous; the way he looked after her and paid attention to her instead of being selfish and just thinking about himself.
Still, it didn't stop you from blushing. Instead of joining the eager participants of the game, you decided to stand beside Jeno, whose arms were crossed over his chest, pretending not to be staring at Linda and Johnny. For now, you focused on watching the others play the game, but every once in a while you found yourself staring at Hendery. When he noticed your gaze, he stared back.
You looked away, Jeno raising his eyebrows as he looked between you two. "What are you doing?"
You couldn't help but smirk. "I was staring because he was staring."
He laughed and nudged you with his shoulder. "Do you know who you're talking to? If I was Hendery, you'd already be in trouble."
You rolled your eyes and playfully nudged your friend back. "Yeah yeah, you big hunk o' manliness. Anyway, I don't think he likes me, y'know. Like… that way."
Jeno chuckled and raised an eyebrow. "I don't know, maybe you're just giving him the wrong signals."
You gave Jeno a doubtful look. How could you possibly give anyone the wrong signals? You hadn't dated anyone since you broke up with your ex-boyfriend in college and it had been almost three years since then. He continued, making a face at you. "You're always like: 'Oh yeah, I'm single.' But then the minute someone starts flirting with you, you act super cold and distant. Just admit it, Y/N, you're afraid he's gonna take advantage of you."
"Ya! Lee Jeno," You scoffed. "Of course I'm not afraid of him taking advantage of me! I'm not his type anyway. And besides…"
"And besides what?"
"Well," You paused. What could you say? Your relationship with Hendery was nothing like what you thought it would be. Sure, you knew he wasn't dating anyone else. But that didn't mean anything. Plenty of people weren't dating anyone.
It wasn't until recently that you realized that you actually enjoyed spending time with him. You liked hanging out with him. You felt comfortable around him. So maybe… Maybe you could let your guard down a little and go on a date or two with him. Even if you never developed feelings for him. Maybe you just needed to spend more time getting to know him.
"Besides…" you started hesitantly. "It doesn't matter."
"Fine fine, I'll stop asking." Jeno rolled his eyes at you. "You know he thinks you're cute, right?"
Your heart stopped beating for a few seconds. Could it be true? Was Hendery finding you attractive? You looked at him, noticing how he kept glancing over to where you were sitting. There were a few times when his glance lingered longer than necessary. He also seemed really interested in everything that was happening. Every word you said, every move you made. As soon as you saw him watching you, you turned your head and pretended to be looking somewhere else. He seemed to be pretty much observing you from afar, like he was taking mental notes. Then again, you thought that Hendery liked observing other people… that might explain why he was so interested in you.
That or maybe he had a crush on you.
"Are you done trying to make me feel insecure yet?" You scolded Jeno. "Because I really can't handle any more pressure today."
"Aw come on," Jeno pouted. "Can't you just accept the fact that he's starting to fancy you? Or is that impossible too?"
"Fine!" You threw up your hands and rubbed your forehead. "I guess I'm fine with whatever happens. Just don't tell Linda, okay? I don't need to hear her pressuring me about my love life. I don't want to deal with any of that."
"Who knows," Jeno mused. "Maybe this time, she won't try and set you up with anyone. Maybe this time, you'll end up going on a date with Hendery."
"Shut up," you muttered under your breath.
Jeno laughed, leaning closer to you and putting his arm around your shoulders. "See? That's the spirit!"
"Alright, who's joining for round two?!" Linda shouted from across the room, waving her arms in the air and looking extremely happy. She loved game night. She loved getting together with friends. She especially loved seeing how far they would go in order to win. "Y/N! Jeno! Quit your gabbing and come play!"
"Fine, fine!" You called out, making your way to the circle of buzzed friends. You decided to sit across from Hendery and squeezed yourself in between Renjun and Mark. “I hate you all.”
Tumblr media
"Fuck you all!" You shouted, pulling off your shirt. You crossed your arms over your chest and the single men in the room couldn't help but stare at your breasts that threatened to spill from your lacy bra. "How could I lose this hand?! This is complete and utter fuckery! It's not fair!"
"Shit," Renjun frowned as he lifted his shirt over his head, also losing his hand.
"Boom goes the dynamite!" Johnny shouted, throwing his card down on the table and grinning from ear to ear. "Johnny wins! And still fully clothed!"
"Damn it!" Doyoung cursed as he tossed his card on the floor and peeled off his shirt. "How the hell is Johnny and Linda so good at poker?"
"This isn't fair," Mark complained, taking his shirt off and crossing his arms over his chest. "This game is rigged!"
"I second that!" Ten groaned out, joining the crowd that took their shirts off. "Linda and Johnny has to be cheating!"
Everyone glared at Linda and Johnny. Who else would they suspect?
"You know what?" Hendery snapped, throwing his card down on the table and yanking off his shirt. "I don't think I can take this anymore."
"Why?" Taeyong wiggled his eyebrows, from the couch, as he sat this round out. "Are you getting distracted? Is seeing Y/N's boobs distracting for you?"
Hendery grinned wickedly at Taeyong. "Yes. Yes it is."
"If you're going to pop a boner," Johnny teased, causing you to roll your eyes. "At least do it somewhere else."
"And take Y/N with you!" Jeno called out teasingly. You let out a groan and buried your face in your hands. It was becoming increasingly obvious that Jeno would be mocking you for the rest of the night. You hoped that he would stop once he got tired of it, but judging from his amused expression, he probably wouldn't.
"It's getting hot in here." Linda looked between you and Hendery. She grabbed Johnny's arm. "Hey babe, let's go grab a drink."
Before Johnny could protest, he was scooped up and pulled away, leaving you with Hendery and the other guys. Mark looked at the group and while you weren’t looking, gestured to the others that they should leave you and Hendery alone. They exchanged looks before nodding their heads and leaving the room, leaving you alone with the one guy who couldn't keep his eyes off you.
"And then there were two." Hendery commented as he put his shirt back on. His eyes trailed up and down your body, stopping briefly at your breasts as you put your shirt back on.
"Why did I have a feeling that they were going to leave us alone the whole time?” You smoothed your shirt down. “And what’s with that weird smile, Hendery?”
Hendery smirked as he leaned forward towards you. His mouth was a mere inch away from yours. “What do you want me to do? Keep acting friendly and nice to you? Not flirt with you? Not notice how pretty you are? Because I can’t seem to help myself. I can’t control myself around you.”
You swallowed hard, fighting back the urge to close the gap between you. "How do you expect me to behave when you've been staring at me all night? It makes it really hard to act normal around you."
"So you're telling me that you can't pretend that we're not attracted to each other either?" Hendery pressed.
"That's not—" You cleared your throat. You really wanted to lie to him, but then again… what harm could it cause? "It’s not like I don’t like you, you know. You're really funny and kind and a great friend. I like hanging out with you."
"You're trying to change the subject," Hendery pointed out.
"No," You shook your head. "It's just…"
You paused, looking away from him. You didn't want to say the words out loud. You didn't want to admit that there was something between you two. You certainly didn't want to admit that you liked him. You thought about saying that you weren't sure whether you wanted to pursue a romantic relationship with him or not, but quickly realized that wouldn't work. He'd definitely think you were lying.
"Is there anything that I can do to prove that I'm worth dating?" Hendery asked softly, reaching out and caressing your cheek. His thumb grazed along your jawline.
You closed your eyes and let his touch linger against your skin. It was sweet, tender and comforting. You tried to imagine what it would be like if he were kissing you. If he were holding you in his arms. Holding you and whispering sweet things into your ears.
He brushed his thumb over your lips, drawing your attention to them. For a moment, you forgot that you were talking to him.
"You don't need to prove anything to me," you whispered back. "You're already worth it."
Hendery let out a small sigh, his hands slipped down and clutched onto your hips. "So are you saying that you want to see where this goes?"
"Maybe," you replied softly.
The way you looked at him caused his heart to skip a beat. His stomach felt all squishy inside. His chest felt tight. He swallowed nervously and nodded his head slowly. He didn't understand why, but whenever you looked at him like that, it always felt like the temperature in the room suddenly went up ten degrees. His heart fluttered as he watched you. His body became filled with energy and excitement as he imagined how your lips would feel against his.
His mind was suddenly full of fantasies about what it would be like to kiss you. What it would be like to hold you in his arms. What it would be like to wake up next to you in the morning.
He swallowed hard and reached out to cup your cheek. He moved his fingers down your neck and shoulder, causing goosebumps to form on your skin.
"Y/N," he breathed out, his voice cracking slightly. "You have no idea how badly I want to kiss you."
"Yeah?" You raised an eyebrow at him, silently daring him to continue.
He grinned and gently tugged on your bottom lip. "Yeah."
"Well, what do you want me to do?" You asked, arching your brows.
Hendery leaned in closer to you, keeping eye contact with you as he spoke. "You tell me."
"I don't know…" You ran your finger along his jawline. "Do you want me to stop you? To push you away?"
"Hell no," Hendery laughed. "I want you to kiss me."
You couldn’t help but close the gap between you and lightly brush your lips against his.
Hendery immediately kissed you back, pressing his tongue into your mouth.
As your lips met his, the electricity between you both surged. It flowed through your bodies and sparked a fire within you. Your lips parted slightly, allowing him access to your mouth. He eagerly pressed his tongue against yours. You moaned as your entire body began to heat up. The way he smelled and tasted, everything was just perfect. 
Every part of him felt right and natural.
When you finally pulled away from him, Hendery had his hand wrapped around the back of your neck, staring deeply into your eyes. He gently bit his lip, his eyes locked onto yours.
“How do you feel about taking this somewhere else?” You whispered. “Like my bedroom?”
Hendery smiled and nodded his head. “Lead the way.”
Tumblr media
You woke up the next morning feeling content. The events from last night seemed like nothing more than a dream. Sure, your body felt sore from being tangled in Hendery's arms all night long, but in a good way. You stared at his sleeping face for a few moments, wondering how anyone could look so beautiful while still being asleep.
Hendery opened his eyes, letting out a soft smile when he saw you. "Good morning, beautiful."
"Mmm, morning handsome," you hummed.
Hendery leaned over and pecked your lips. You smiled as he ran his fingers through your hair. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing," you lied.
"You've been smiling for the past five minutes," Hendery noted.
You laughed. "Just thinking about last night."
"Oh?" Hendery cocked his head to the side curiously. "About what?"
"Us," you sighed, placing a hand on his chest. "Last night… That was amazing."
Hendery grinned widely. "It was amazing, wasn't it?"
"Mmhm." You smiled wider. "It was exactly what I needed."
"You deserved it."
You laughed as you playfully punched his shoulder. "Are you done talking now? I'm ready to get out of bed."
"Only if you give me a kiss first," Hendery offered.
You rolled your eyes and pushed him playfully, causing him to fall backwards. "Get back up."
Hendery chuckled as he scrambled to his feet. Once he was standing upright, he swooped in and gave you another kiss. As you were kissing him, he brought his hands to your cheeks and held you in place.
"Are you sure you're okay?" he whispered.
"Of course I am," you whispered back, burying your nose in his neck. You loved the smell of him. It made you weak in the knees. "You better believe that I'll never forget what happened last night."
"I know you won't," Hendery replied, bringing his hands to your waist. He nuzzled his face into your hair. He trailed his fingers up your thighs until he reached your bare core. He gently rubbed his thumbs over your lower lips, causing you to gasp softly. You shivered as he brushed his fingers across your clit.
"Hendery…” you pushed at him softly. “I think Linda might be home. We should… maybe finish this later."
“It didn’t stop us last night when we fucked.” He looked up at you sheepishly, his eyes meeting yours. "I don't want to wait any longer."
“It was loud and everyone was drunk last night.” You licked your lips nervously. "It’s morning now and we really shouldn't."
"I know." Hendery frowned. "But I really need you, Y/N. I'm willing to risk her finding us. Are you willing to take the chance?"
You gulped. "I don't know…"
Hendery took a deep breath and lowered his head. "If you say no, I swear that I will go downstairs and make breakfast for everyone that's still here and wait until they leave."
"That doesn't sound like a bad plan." You let out a laugh as you cupped his cheek. "But fuck it. My door is locked anyway."
"See?" Hendery nodded proudly. "Perfect."
You returned the gesture by pulling him into a deep kiss. He groaned loudly when you slid your tongue into his mouth. He continued trailing his fingers along your inner thigh as you pushed him further onto the bed. His body sank into the mattress, but his fingers remained focused on your naked skin. Within a matter of seconds, he had flipped you onto your back. You giggled as he pinned you down beneath him. His hands gripped your hips tightly as he pressed himself between your legs.
You stared up at him, panting heavily. He slowly brought his lips to yours once more, this time giving you a deep kiss. The pressure of his tongue against yours ignited a fire inside of you. When he slid his hands up your body, you gasped as he grasped onto your bare breasts.
"Fuck," he groaned as he squeezed your breasts roughly. "These tits are perfect."
"Mmmm…" You moaned, letting out a tiny moan as he pinched your nipples roughly. You ran your fingers through his dark hair as you continued moaning. You knew he could hear your pleasure because his moans grew louder too.
"Goddamn," he growled, lowering his head and sucking one of your erect nipples into his mouth. He used his teeth to gently bite down on your sensitive flesh. You moaned louder, pushing your body harder against his face. He released the nipple from his mouth and brought his head up.
"Shh…" he said, lowering his head to you once more.
"Don't stop," you whimpered.
"Trust me, I'm going to make you come as many times as possible," he promised, capturing one of your swollen nipples between his lips. You cried out loudly when he sucked on it, sending electric shocks through your entire body.
"Fuck," he groaned again, squeezing your other breast and swirling his tongue around it. "God damn."
You grabbed onto the sheets underneath you as he worked his magic on your sensitive nipples. His skilled fingers slid up and down your wet pussy, causing you to moan even louder.
"Oh fuck," you moaned, pushing your hips towards his hand. "Please… don't stop."
Hendery pulled his mouth off of your nipple and looked at you. You gazed back at him lustfully, your eyes glazed over. "Tell me what you want, Y/N."
"Hendery… please, I can't take much more."
"Please what?" he asked, still rubbing his fingers along your throbbing clit.
"Lick my cunt, lick my pussy."
"I love the way you talk," he whispered. "You turn me on so much."
You wiggled your hips towards him as he lowered his mouth to your exposed sex. You could feel his hot breath against your clit as he exhaled loudly. "So wet… so fucking wet…"
"Mmmm…" he hummed, swirling his tongue around your clit before moving up and sucking on it. "Is this what you wanted?"
"Yes!" You cried out, bucking your hips violently against his face. "Hendery, yes! Please!"
"Please what?" he repeated, licking at your slit again.
"Make me cum… make me cum, Hendery."
Hendery hummed softly, his mouth completely surrounding your clit. You could feel his warm breath against your flesh as he repeatedly sucked on it. It sent shockwaves throughout your body, leaving you shaking uncontrollably. Before you knew it, you came, flooding his face with your juices.
You arched your back as you rode out your orgasm. You could feel every muscle in your body tense up as wave after wave of pleasure rushed through you.
"Ahhhh…" you panted. "God, that feels amazing."
Hendery licked your wet folds one last time before he sat up and grinned at you. "Let me show you how amazing I can make you feel."
"Oh yeah?" You ran your fingers through his messy hair. "And how do you plan on doing that?"
Hendery smirked at you, leaning down and nibbling on your earlobe. "There's only one way to find out."
You wrapped your arms around his neck and passionately kissed him. "Oh yeah?"
"Yeah," he smiled. He positioned himself in between your legs. His cock rubbed against your swollen folds as he moved his hips forward. You instantly felt the warmth of his thick member against your entrance.
"Fuck," he moaned, pushing slowly into you.
"Fuck…" you groaned.
Hendery started slowly sliding his cock in and out of you, teasing you with every single thrust. You tried to move yourself, but Hendery held you firmly in place.
"You know, you're so tight," he said. "It makes it hard to hold back."
"Do whatever you want," you groaned. "Just fuck me already."
"All right," he smirked, grabbing your ass with both hands and plunging deeper into you.
You groaned as his cock buried itself inside of you, stretching you to the limit. "God damn," you whimpered. "Fuck."
"I can tell that you're enjoying this," he grunted, pounding into you roughly.
"Oh yeah," you cried out. "Faster, Hendery. Faster."
"Take it, Y/N," he encouraged. "Take everything that I have to offer."
"Please, oh god, just keep going," you begged. "Keep fucking me, please."
He did just that. He picked up the pace, thrusting himself into you as fast as he could. Each stroke left you gasping for air. The intensity was almost unbearable.
You dug your nails into his shoulders, desperately clinging onto him. The friction of his cock within you was making you feel things you'd never felt before. Things that felt absolutely incredible.
"Fuck… I'm coming, Y/N," he cried out, his voice filled with passion.
The feeling of his release inside of you caused you to experience an intense orgasm of your own. Your walls clenched around his cock, milking him dry as you screamed out his name.
After what seemed like hours, Hendery finally collapsed on top of you. He placed kisses all over your face as he continued caressing your body.
"You're amazing," he murmured into your ear. "I've never met anyone who can make me feel the way that you do."
"Really?" you asked, turning your head to look at him.
He smiled at you, resting his forehead against yours. "Yes, really. You are amazing."
Your heart skipped a beat as he leaned in to kiss you. "Thank you," you whispered.
"No, thank you." He kissed you once more before standing up and retrieving his clothes. "Now I’m scared of leaving your bedroom. Who knows who’s out there?”
You laughed, throwing on some clothes. “No doubt Linda and Johnny. Maybe a few of the others that got drunk and didn’t go home.”
Hendery let out a sigh, before opening your door. “And let the teasing begin.”
You and Hendery walked into the kitchen to catch a few pairs of eyes staring at you. Linda let out a small laugh, slapping Johnny’s arm as he nodded his head. Renjun was nursing a hangover with a cup of coffee, Mark next to him with a surprised face. Jeno grinned and wiggled his eyebrows, happy that his two friends got together.
“Sooooo…” Jeno broke the silence, looking at you and Hendery. “What’s the verdict between you two?”
“What’s the point of asking when we know they’ve fucked all night long?” Renjun shook his head, a small smile on his face. “Take care of her, Hendery. We’ll kick your ass if you hurt her.”
Hendery looked down at you softly. “I’d never hurt her. Y/N’s always been special to me.”
“Awhhhh!” Linda cooed. She slapped Johnny’s arm. “I told you that they’d get together eventually! I’m so glad I suggested strip poker last night.”
“I’m glad you did too,” Jeno nodded his head. “They finally did it.”
“Not gonna ask how the night went,” Johnny said, as he looked at you. “But next time, have sex at Hendery’s place.”
Mark laughed. “Like you’re one to talk, Johnny. You and Linda are loud too.”
“Hey now, we’re not that bad!” Linda exclaimed, Johnny laughing next to her. Your friend sent you a smile and you could tell that she was honestly happy for you. “But really, I’m happy for you.”
“Thanks,” you smiled, looking up at the man next to you. “I’m happy for us too.”
Hendery placed a soft kiss on your cheek. “As am I.”

hiii~ 💕 if requests are still open, could I possibly request lee!lyney with ler!traveler? I think lyney deserves a good gettin' ehehe
Magic tricks
Tumblr media
hello!! ⭐️
this was SOO fun to write ive been dying to write for Lyney UGH
i hope it was okay i wrote Aether instead of Lumine, i just find him easier to write. enjoyyy🫶
Lyney flared out the stack of playing cards, smiling smugly at the traveler standing in-front of him.
"Traveler~ Be a dear and pick a card for me, will you?" He asked, holding said cards out to him.
Aether simply tilted his head after being stopped in his tracks, shrugging before sliding out a card from the middle. "Hello to you to, I guess."
"Ah, my apologies.. Hello, Aether. Remember that card, yes?" He corrected himself, confirming Aether had a memory of his pick before taking the card back.
"Now, prepare to be amazed, dear traveler!" Lyney exclaimed, shuffling the cards in a way that told Aether he had done this many times before. "Was.. this your card?"
As he spoke, he pulled a card from the top of the deck and flipped it to Aether's view dramatically. The black diamond card glistened slightly, and the shorter just chuckled. "It might've been."
"Ta-da~" Lyney hummed, sliding his cards into a pocket.
"You know, ive been practicing my own magic lately, Lyney." Aether replied, huffing a laugh at the excited expression the other showed.
"You have?" He gasped, "Well, I've obviously taken a toll on you! Who else would you get inspiration from, hm?"
"Lynette." The traveler cut him off slightly, watching the magician's face drop. "Pfft, relax.. I was just kidding, it was you."
"You tease.." Lyney crossed his arms over his chest, before his smile returned. "Though, you'll have to do a trick for me. And maybe if your lucky, I can teach you a thing or two~"
"Isn't that against the magicians code?" Aether joked, laughing softly before taking a few steps closer to him. "I can show you a trick. You'll have to close your eyes though."
"Well, how could I ever say no to a offer like that?" Lyney smirked, letting his arms fall to his sides and closing his eyes.
"Thats good," The shorter praised, moving to stand behind him. "Prepare to be amazed, Lyney~"
With that, he dug his fingers into the backs of Lyney's ribs and wiggled his nails gently into the skin. The taller gasped loudly, falling back into Aether's chest on reflex as he laughed.
"Aether!" is the only word he managed to get out before he was cut off by his own giggles. "stohohop thahat! Thahats uhunfair!"
"Well, I think its pretty fair." He replied in a unbothered tone, like he was completely oblivious to his hands that were now spidering down to his hips.
"Wehell Ihi- don't!" He yelped when he felt Aether's hand linger towards the side of his thigh, barely grazing over the fabric of his tights. He tried to move forward out of his grasp, but the traveler held a firm arm around his waist to keep him as still as he could. "Ihi'll fall!.."
"Huh.." Aether pretended to be deep in thought, before scribbling his fingers into the squishy surface. "Not gonna lie.. that kind of sounds like a you problem. I'd be happy to help though, if you'd do something for me."
The squeal the magician let out earned a few strange looks from the passerby's, his knees buckling slightly before he pushed them back straight. "Whahat do yohou wahant?"
"Well, thats no way to ask is it?" He asked rhetorically, sensing that Lyney might actually fall if he continued in that particular spot for any longer.. So with that logic, he moved up to squish pouch of skin at his sides.
"people ahare staharing! I hahave a reputation yohou know!" He argued, squirming back into the figure behind him like that would make the sensation any less unbearable. "Juhust tehell me!"
"Well.. its simple really, all you have to do is.." Aether paused, moving to whisper in the other's ear. "-admit that you like this."
Lyney gasped and moved his head away, squeezing his already shut eyes. "Wihill- will yohou stohop?"
"Probably not." The traveller shrugged, laughing at the whine that tore from Lyney's throat. "Okay, okay! I will.."
"Yohou behetter.." His laugh turned to soft breathy giggles as aether switched his squeezing to soft in poking and prodding.
"Ihi guess.. I guess its not horrible?" He whispered, his cheeks flushing up in embarrassment. "Now.. let me go! I have a show soon y'know, I'm a magician, not a toy.."
"Alright, alright~ I had my fun." Aether sighed happily, releasing him from his grasp. "And before you ask, yes, I'll come to your show."
"You know me too well, dear Traveler.." Lyney turned around, a genuine smile on his face. "Now, I'll be taking my leave. I'll be searching for you in the audience~"
So he left as soon as he came.. Aether had half the mind to tell him to fix his hair up, but he was more looking forward to hearing the way Lynette questioned him about it.

You know, how you want someone to write about Jon and witchcraft...so I kinda did that, but first you need to know that 1. english is not my first language, so if it's shit I'm blaming that (I actually think it's pretty okay, but you know, maybe you don't) and 2. I haven't done a deep dive on witchcraft yet, I only know a little bit here and there, so I kind of wrote more about his relationship with witchcraft.
Anyway, here it is, one witchcraft!Jon snippet:
The thing with wirchcraft, that most people didn't know, was, that it wasn't as magical as fiction made it seem. Most of the practices involving witchcraft were more en route with psychology, only with an extra kick to it.
Jon grew up with witchcraft. The memory of his grandmother, merhodically preparing ingridients a comforting one. How she blended herbs and heated oils that smelled strong and earthy, embalmbing candles and her workstation, humming a tune under her breath, that seemed odly familiar, even when Jon heard it for the first time.
His grandmother didn't worship any god or gods, never had the mind or desire for it, but she kept a glass of water and a plate of cookies on the window sill, for the house spirits.
Jon loved to sit with her when she worked, loved the incense that she lid to ward against negative spirits (the smell fresh and floral with lavender - it took a few years for Jon to discover that he liked the stronger scent of opium much more) loved to watch the candles burn for her spells, loved to hear the crackle of the herbs she coated them in. He loved the simmer pots, the smell of lemons and cinnamon heavy in the air, and loved how his grandmother patiently explained what all the ingridients were used for. It was the only time, where his grandmother didn't mind his many questions, his insistent need to know.
When Jon was eight and Mr.Spider an ever looming threat behind doors and in his nightmares, she gave him a tarot deck for christmas. It was a battered old thing, well used and well loved and when she told him that it had been his fathers, Jon hugged it to his chest, as if afraid that she would take it back again. It became his most priced possession.
When she died (right after Jon left for college, as if she waited for him to finally stand on his own feet, so she could go) he packed all of it away and shoved it into a storage room, angry tears swimming in his eyes, making the world wobbly and hazy, his heart heavy with grief. What good was witchcraft, when the people you love leave you anyway?
(He kept the tarot deck, of course, he couldn't bear to be parted with it)
And so it went for a few years, Jon lived his life, pretended not to miss the scent of herbs and fire, but kept a glass of water on his window sill and layed tarot, sometimes with questions, sometimes for fun. He did read his grandmothers grimoire sometimes, stroking his thumb over her small and neat handwriting, but he didn't lit incense, didn't prepare herbs like he watched her do so often. He didn't do any spells and pretended it didn't hurt, pretended that nothing in him longed for it. He pretended he was fine. Funny, how he, even with this much practice, had never really been good at that.
When Jon walked down the stairs to the Archives for the first time, he stopped, his hand nervously drumming against the tarot deck in his pocket. The Magnus Insitute never had the best vibes, so to speak, but the Archives practically hummed with...something. Something malicious, something that left the taste of ash and rot in his mouth, the air clogged with the scent of old paper.
Jon shook his head, willing himself to ignore it and fully stepped into his new workplace. But he did lit some incense after the others were gone, the heavy smell as comforting and strong as he remembered.
(He pretended that it was fine that the first tarot card he turned was the tower - everytime he asked his tarot deck anything)
Years later, after worms, strangers, betrayal and hurt it was Jon's tarot deck that burned first, the explosion so loud and deep that Jon could feel it in his bones. Jon died with the taste of ash in his mouth.
The taste was still there, when he woke up again and only left him, when he read the rotten monologue of a man that had played with his life like it was his right.
When he blinked at the sky (the new sky in the new world, oh god what had he done-) and it blinked back, Jon collapsed laughing and crying, wishing with everything he had, that witchcraft was as magical as some people thought.
But witchcraft couldn't help him now. Nothing could.
OH MY GOD?????? IM OBSESSED WITH THIS I MEAN OBSESSED THIS IS GORGEOUS THANK YOU SO MUCH IM SCREAKING I LOVE IT

A Little Less Sixteen Candles and a Little More "Touch Me"
Chapter 3
Demetri Alexopoulos x reader
Summary: a very self-indulgent fic of what it would be like to date Demetri as Robby's sibling/Johnny's kid.
Chapter 1, Chapter 2, Chapter 3, Chapter 4, Chapter 5, Chapter 6
Masterlist
Demetri takes you to Golf N Stuff. But instead of golfing, you two spend your time in the arcade. It's a lot of fun, even when you're just standing behind him cheering him on as he tries to beat the high score of his favourite game. At the end of the night, the two of you had racked up enough tickets to get a small stuffed raccoon, which Demetri nervously insists that you keep.
Demetri drives you back to the Larusso house, where you are unfortunately still staying, and parks in front.
“I had a really great time,” you say shyly looking at him through your lashes.
“Me- uh - me too,” he smiles but refuses to look in your eyes. You turn your body towards him, which catches his eye, and he finally looks up at you. You glance from his eyes to his lips and back slowly, trying to hint at him. His eyes widen slightly and he repeats your motion, which is all the confidence it takes. You lean forward across the console and press a kiss to his lips, it's gentle and shy and you quickly pull away with a sheepish smile and quiet “goodnight” as you quickly got out of his car. 
Demetri just sits in his car in shock. Not moving for several minutes after you left.
“Shit.” he quietly says to himself.
.:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:.
The next day at the dojo, you ignore Demetri, pretending like nothing had happened the night before. Demetri, on the other hand, can’t keep his eyes off of you. 
“Did it go well?” Robby asks, noticing the taller boys distracted nature during their spar. Demetri finally looks back from where you and Sam are sparring.
“I don’t know, I thought it did, but Y/N hasn’t looked at me all day,” he frowned.
“Something happen?”
“Yeah.. Y/N kissed me,” he looked back at you. You could feel his gaze on your back but you refused to give in.
“Good! That’s good right?” Robby asked skeptically.
“It was… until they practically ran out of my car after… do you think they regret it?” he looks to the other boy, eyes full of worry.
“No! Of course not! Listen… why don’t you go talk to them?” Robby suggests, knowing that you could never turn Demetri down. 
Nodding, “Okay yeah,” he looks back over to you as you knock Sam to the ground, a small smile taking over his features.
At lunch, you sat on the brown deck eating a sandwich Mrs. Larusso had packed you, while Sam and Robby opted to do extra training.
Demetri cleared his throat as he approached you, “Ahem, uh can I- do you, uh mind if I uh sit with you?” he asks nervously fiddling with his hands.
“Sure,” you take a bite of your sandwich, still avoiding his gaze, knowing you’d melt if you looked at him.
“So, um, Y/N,” he starts, “Did I do something wrong?”
You were slightly surprised by this, thinking you were the one who messed up all along and that he didn't feel the same way as you. You finally look at him, “No, of course not.”
“Good,” he sighs in relief, “because I thought you were mad at me because I did something wrong last night.”
“No! No, I- I did, I shouldn’t’ve kissed you, it was my bad, I should've known you don't feel that way…” you start.
“What? No! I do feel that way, Y/N” you look at him with hopeful eyes as he continues, “I felt so bad when you ran off, cuz I thought it was bad or that you regretted it… I’ve never really kissed anyone before…”
“It was good,” you say after a moment of silence. Demetri's eyes lit up. 
“It was? I don't know it was pretty quick and you caught me off guard a little bit, I bet I could do better-” he started.
“Then do it,” your mouth moved before your brain had the chance to catch up. 
“R-really?” Demetri stammered. You nodded slowly at him and he leaned in and pressed a soft yet passionate kiss to your lips. It was so much better than you ever could've imagined, way better than last night's, that's for sure.
“Oh c’mon,” Mr. Larusso sighed as he entered the backyard. You and Demetri pulled away, a slight blush dusting each of your cheeks. You could hear Sam and Robby snicker from the other side of the yard and you just rolled your eyes and smiled widely at the boy beside you.
.:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:..:.:.:.
A few days later you were sitting happily in the mall food court, Demetri by your side and Sam and Robby across from you, when suddenly, “What day is it?” your boyfriend asked hurriedly, yes, your boyfriend , the two of you had made it official and went on two more dates, “Is today Wednesday?”
“Yeah” you and the other two reply in unison.
“The new issue of Dungeon Lord came out!” he gets up from his seat excitedly, “Do you guys want anything from the comic book store?” he points at each of you. 
“No,” you all shake your heads.
“Do you want to come babe?” he asks, and you blush at the pet name.
“Uh, no I think I'm just gonna finish my lunch, if you don't mind,” you smile at him.
“Of course not! I'll be right back!” he starts to take off before turning and saying, “Make sure no one throws away my chicken!” and you shoot him a thumbs up before he runs off.
You, Sam, and Robby sit around and talk for about 5 more minutes. Once you're all finished with your food, you get up to go pack Demetri’s chicken and head off to find him when suddenly you hear a commotion back in the food court. 
“At least I’m not an asshole!” you hear your boyfriend yell. 
“You're dead meat,” Hawk replies, one of his goons grabbing onto Demetri, but you and the other are already on them. Sam kicks the guy holding Demetri in the head and you rush to your boyfriend, grabbing his hand and pulling him behind you. 
“5 against 4? more like 3 and a half,” Hawk laughs, looking at Demetri. Everyone squared up and soon the fighting began. Honestly, Sam and Robby did most of the fighting, you landed a few hits, but mostly your priority was to get Demetri out of harm's way, knowing that Hawk was aiming for him. You knew about Demetri’s yelp review, and you honestly didn't care that he did it, even though you knew it would piss off your dad and the cobras. You were just hoping they wouldn't go to this extreme. Soon enough Robby was landing a killer kick to Hawk's face and the fighting was over. 
You looked at your boyfriend, “You ok?” you finally ask.
“Yeah,” he nods, looking deeply into your eyes, almost like he's about to-
“We saved your chicken!” Sam butts in, holding the box out to Demetri. You roll your eyes but smile nonetheless. Demetri does too, “thanks,” he says, taking th box from Sam.

thank you bestie @cajolions for the tag!!
Tag someone you want to get to know better! Or just check in with. Fall's a busy time of year.
Favorite color: red!! this is because i was obsessed with cirque du freak as a kid and mr. crepsley's favorite color is red so i said mine was too but genuinely i do like it a lot lol
Last song: umm i really only listen to music when i'm driving (i just got a "new" car and bluetooth is a game changer tbh. yes i am ten years late to any technology advancement)...i wanna say it was poor child from the wild party
Last movie: i almost never watch movies so i have been wracking my memory to try to figure this out. i'm pretty sure it was titanic a few months ago when my roommates were trying to find it online. so i lent them my dvd and stuck around to watch with them
Currently watching: star trek lower decks, call the midwife s11 (and apparently s12 just hit netflix so i'm really behind now oops), and i'm about to start the new taskmaster season while i have lunch! (or not, apparently it's not on youtube until 4pm and my usual alternate site isn't working. tragic.) oh, and my covid-induced saddle club rewatch that i need to go back to LOL
Other stuff I watched this year: i have not been super on the ball with media this year to be honest- i just haven't had much motivation for it. i'm always watching star trek so i guess strange new worlds and picard were both airing this year? i don't remember when the last taskmaster season was out? i've definitely watched assorted stuff on disney+ too (strange world and howard are the major ones i remember)
Shows I dropped this year: i don't think i've dropped any because i haven't really...started any...although dr who is making a return soon i guess and i'm genuinely not sure if i'll bother to watch it or not (though rtd2 has me so intrigued...what kind of trainwreck will we get and will it be funny)
Currently reading: i've actually been reading more than watching stuff this year! feels good. currently i'm on a gathering of shadows which is from some new adult series a coworker recommended- definitely not high art (and i'm annoyed that book 2 is starting to push the het romance that i was so relieved never went anywhere in book 1) but it's a fun magical world to read about without having to put too much thought into. i've also been reading the heart of our cities insanely slowly for the last year and i'm partway through a chronicles of narnia (re)read because i never read all of them in order as a kid. and technically i was reading game of thrones book 2 but it's just so fucking long i could not summon the willpower to continue, but i might go back to it eventually
i'm tagging @hot-cocoa-daydream and if anyone else reads all this and wants to pretend i tagged you feel free lmao

Fifth Sister
We're going to hang out a bit longer in the Junzhe Extended Universe - why wouldn't we, when the figs are just this cute?
Here we have Gong Jun as Prince Zhong Wumei from the TV show Unique Lady 2. The scene where Wumei dresses up as a lady to trap marauding bandits is so good we now have two figures to celebrate it! You may recall I posted about the first figure here.
As a recap, Prince Wumei makes a strikingly beautiful woman:
This is so cute. I love his face when he decks the bandit!
Tumblr media
The prince arrived all dressed up in his finery, with a very special orange gardenia fan! This is, of course, not the fan he has in the show, which is decorated by two other beautiful ladies:
Tumblr media
But, the fan has our fandom symbols on it, so I love it!
Tumblr media
Here he is, all cute and smiley and being absolutely adorable. I love these figs! I want tons of Wumei-dressed-to-lure-bandits figs!
Tumblr media
He's so fancy, with the golden earrings and the gilded hairpieces! I like how they accentuated his eyes at the corner with makeup here too.
Tumblr media
This is an even better shot of the jewelry, and of the back side of the double-sided fan.
Tumblr media
This hairstyle is super intricate...you can tell by the photo and video.
Tumblr media
I really love all the swaying motion the fig maker put into the robes and the hair. Very cute and flirty luring bandits! They had it coming.
Tumblr media
The part in the video where he pretends to trip and fall is fantastic. I don't think his hand waving up here is from that, but it still makes me giggle!
Tumblr media
Ah, Zhong Wumei, so enchanting!
Tumblr media
He stands great - no issues with him falling over at all.
Tumblr media
I just love him! Did you notice he has his pinky finger very elegantly stuck out there on the hand holding the fan. If you take a look back at the video, you'll see that is actually the case!
Tumblr media
No flirty knickers like we saw in the other Wumei figure!
Tumblr media
I love this ornate hairstyle they put him in - very pretty with the piled coils of hair and the golden hair ornaments.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I had to laugh since my extremely rudimentary Chinese language learning skills actually paid off on this box card! The characters are wu (five), and mei (little sister), for a play on Wumei's name. I can't express the delight in realizing that laboriously working through my first two units in Duolingo and Hello Chinese worked out here! Numbers 1-10 and learning how to describe family members came through for me 😅
Tumblr media
That's the last one in this 4-figure series of figs! Happy to have finally finished posting about each of these. I really love the JZEU...I think it's so much fun.
Material: PVC
Fig Count: 325
Scene Count: 24
Rating: The lady has some strength!

I took Gwen into "The Fall of Falcon Company" proper, and met her sister's former commander (since promoted to captain over all Queensdale), Captain Tervelan. Also, I fought a bunch of centaurs who melted under Gwen's attacks (she's a level 80 mesmer decked out in Exotic and Ascended gear), which was fun—she's just started her elite specialization and often feels a bit underpowered.
Tervelan, meanwhile, is a weaselly asshole whom I would like to stab multiple times, but the transition scene for his location is stunning:
Tumblr media
You can talk to his lieutenant, who predictably sneers at any PC, allowing for a personality response! I imagine Gwen's personality as a mixture of charm, sneakiness, a good heart, and a fierce temper, so her dialogue choices aren't particularly consistent. This time, I figured she'd be on edge and went for the ferocity option ("Let's step outside these walls, and I'll teach you a little respect"). He's impressed by this.
Tervelan himself goes on about how coddled Logan and Gwen are—a truly wild take on Logan, and at least as wild for Gwen, a street kid whose best friend was recently dismembered and scattered over various parts of the city. His character design and dialogue are clearly meant to be obnoxious and are.
Tumblr media
She's a hero because she passed through the city gates, went into Queensdale, and turned the tide of battle at Shaemoor! Does "Hero of Shaemoor" mean nothing to you >_>
So the centaurs conveniently interrupt. This happens specifically because of Gwen's presence—they know about Gwen and realize she's there, but they don't recognize her until she reveals herself (hmmm). Also, a chance animation made her confidence hilariously unsubtle:
Tumblr media
(Good luck with that, Hruud the Reaver.)
Anyway, Tervelan continues to be an asshole, first snidely telling Gwen that she can sneak off, and then when she jumps into single combat instead, shouting that he wants to see "fancy footwork." She's a mesmer, so fancy footwork is very much her style, but ... seriously, this guy.
After the fight, he's like blahblah I don't have time for a personal vendetta (so apparently he knows Gwen has a personal stake when even Logan didn't—but Deborah was a sergeant in his command, so it's not that far-fetched). Gwen convinces him to let her help out in exchange for more information, and he pretends to agree, sends her to join a unit to fight some centaurs, only for her to discover it's one(1) soldier. So Tervelan remains shady as hell.
The soldier turns out to have been Deborah's friend/protégée and says some nice things. Given my headcanon that Gwen and Deborah were actually on really bad terms back then and eventually estranged (Gwen was a bandit, Deborah a Seraph), I'm pretty sure that Gwen feels intensely guilty as he rambles on about how Deborah was a fantastic soldier, but of course Gwen would know that already...
The camp conveniently turns out to be the same camp in which the surviving members of Deborah's company were kept before being sold into slavery(!) by the centaurs. Gwen and her new soldier buddy discover the remains of a notebook from one of the members of the company, listing some of the survivors' names (including Deborah's, to Gwen's excitement) and accusing Tervelan of selling them out for some unknown reason. Surprise!
Gwen then had the option to immediately confront Tervelan or to bring Logan onboard. Given the strong rapport between the street PC and Logan, and that Gwen is a smart, sometimes calculating person, I figured she'd want back-up.

Creep
A/N: Hello everyone, I’m back with another Jason Todd one-shot. I had this one saved on my draft for awhile now and I gotta say this is honestly one of my favorite fic of Jason that I’ve written. Hope you guys enjoy this 💕💕
Pairings: Jason Todd/Red Hood x female!reader
Warnings: A little steamy kiss at the end, implication of sex, a weird dude following you at Bruce’s charity gala, and that’s pretty much it.
my masterlist :))
~~
"Quick, pretend like you're talking to me." Jason was forcefully turned around by y/n who kept looking over her shoulder like she's being followed. She was agitated and worried, but also donned a scowl that showed her clear annoyance. Jason tried to look for someone suspicious in the sea of guests, but no one stood out in his eyes.
"Why? Is someone following you? Are you okay? Do I need to grab my guns?" He asked, determination in his eyes.
If it was in any other situation, y/n would've smiled and rolled her eyes at his protectiveness, but this guy had been trailing behind her since the start of Bruce's charity gala and it's getting on her nerves. The only reason why she hasn't kicked him in the balls yet was because she didn't want to make a scene, especially since last time.
"This guy just can't take a goddamn hint. He keeps following me and I'm tired of hiding just for him to find me again. This is my first night out since god knows how long and this creep is ruining it." y/n grabbed Jason's glass of whiskey and proceed to downed it one go, ignoring the dirty looks thrown her way.
"Why haven't you deck him yet?" Jason casually asked, ordering another glasses of alcohol.
"You think I haven't thought of that?" She whisper-yelled. "The only reason why I'm being "civil" right now is for Bruce's sake. Also, I've had enough of Alfred's disapproving looks to last me a lifetime."
Jason smiled, founding it amusing how y/n is handling her current dilemma. He was about to say that he'll offer to get rid of the creep when someone with eager eyes and even more eager steps started walking towards y/n and himself.
"Don't turn around, but I think your fan is making a move." He stated. "Does he have brown hair, blue eyes, and an extremely punchable face?"
y/n sighed and nodded. "Yup. That's him. So, you have any idea to get rid of this guy?"
Jason assessed the situation and if he's correct—which he usually was—then creeper over there would reach their location in about eight seconds. So, he needed to think and act fast. He could asked y/n to go and find someplace to hide, more preferably his old bedroom in the manor, but y/n had tried the same method and she made a good point about how he could just find her again. He could just go marched right towards him and tell him to back the hell off, but that would cause a scene that would probably get y/n and Bruce angry at him. Another one of Jason's plan was to threatened the guy passive-aggressively into cowering and leaving, but where would be the fun in that. With three methods out of the way and four seconds left on the clock, Jason had one final idea. Though, he haven't figured out how y/n would reacted.
"Alright, I have an idea. It might work, but I need you to promise me that you won't get mad," Jason explained.
"Okay. What is it?"
"You promise right?"
"Oh my God, yes, I promise. Now, tell me."
Without a word, Jason pulled y/n by the waist, leaving no space empty between the two vigilantes. y/n let out an oof sound when their chest collided while Jason slowly leaned in, their lips brushing but his eyes watching the scowl painted on the creeper's face.
"I think it's working," Jason whispered.
y/n gulped, her hands tightened slightly at Jason's suit collar. "Is it?"
"Yup. He's stomping away like an angry toddler."
"That's good," y/n answered dazedly.
Jason smirked, noticing how her eyes were closed. "You okay, princess? You seem a little flushed there."
"I...I'm fine. I just—" she paused, thinking for a moment "—are you wearing that cologne I got you for your birthday?"
"I am." He lowered his hands to her hips. "Do you like it?"
y/n nodded, her arms making their way around his neck. "I do."
Wordlessly, y/n kissed Jason with a vigor that he wasn't expecting, but welcomed either way. The two were in their very own bubble, oblivious to the fact that many people were staring and whispering about their steamy interaction. Their kiss was passionate and full of desire that made neither of them ever want to let go. It was only when the need of air became urgent that y/n had to let go with Jason's lips chasing after her own.
"That was long overdue, wasn't it?" She smiled, forehead leaning against Jason's.
"Yes, it is. So, what do you say we go back to my place and make up for lost time?" He suggested, trailing kisses to her jaw.
y/n kissed him again and pulled away. "I like the way you think, Jaybird."

Tumblr media
Yoongi’s laugh is so beautiful. It’s rare, so when you see it, you soak up everything you can about it. The way his eyes crinkle up into crescent moons, the way his lips curl back putting his gummy smile on bright display. You can swear you see his eyes sparkle.
You are in love with him. You are in love with your best friend.
He makes loving him such an easy thing to do; bringing you into his inner world, showing you the sweet and warm center he conceals from everyone else. The way he looks at you, the way he says your name, the way he pouts when he wants a back scratch, all of those little things that make him who he is only deepen your infatuation with him.
You’re with him again this Friday night, making the drive to Bom’s house. It’s been a long week for the both of you; he’s been wrapped up in producing a track and you’ve been nose deep in college textbooks. His track is completed, and your exams are over. It’s safe to say that you both could use a good break.
It’s the end of the spring semester and the weather is going to be gorgeous tonight. The racing summer breeze coming through the open car windows is exhilarating. The sun is setting, and the warm evening light on Yoongi’s dewy skin makes him appear absolutely radiant as he navigates the highway.
You’re just listening to fun little summer jams as you speed off toward the city’s suburbs. Ones with funky little basslines that are easy to groove and sing along to. Ones that make you shout and laugh into the rushing wind. Ones that make you drink in the moment you’re having with Yoongi; ones that make you soak up all of his joy.
And when he steals a sly look your way, one hand still on the top of the steering wheel, you can swear your heart stops.
You’ve loved him as long as you can remember really knowing him. Since you were both 12, bonding over games of tag and basketball and the spilling of secrets to each other. You’d sit beneath the big tree in his backyard and share the snacks you’d bought at the corner store. He’d always let you have the last chocolate.
The only secret you’ve ever kept from Yoongi is the matter of your infatuation, and you are pretty resolute in keeping it that way.
He is the single most important person in your life. He had been there with you through it all; when your parents split up at 13, when your dad got you your first car at 15, when your long time boyfriend cheated on you at 16, when your dream college denied you at 17, when you got a full ride scholarship to a smaller university outside of the city right after that, when you were drugged at a house party at 20, when you were diagnosed with depression at 21, and when you were accepted into your masters program at 22.
You needed him, and because of that, you could never tell him.
You pull into the gates that surround Bom’s neighborhood. Her parents are pretty wealthy, so they live on a golf course. As you pull up into the driveway, you see some other students milling about, catching Frisbee. There’s Eunha, Ireum, Ji-Ah, and Miyeun that you recognize from some of your classes, but there are a few more that you’ve never met.
After a few rounds of drinks and a few lost games of flip cup, you all head outside to the back patio with all of your schoolwork from the year. Bom turns on the bluetooth speaker and sets it on the railing. You take in the night air and gaze up at the sky, wishing there was a shooting star to wish upon.
“Alright, everyone,” Bom begins, “essays and lab reports first, then tests, then miscellaneous homework.” Yoongi helps you dig through your stack to fish out the cursed papers. You all toss the stapled packages into the fire pit, one by one, each hitting with a soft thud. Once everyone has thrown their woes into the pit, Bom tops it with actual firewood and unceremoniously sets the whole lot of it on fire. You gaze into the center of the flame, watching your entire year catch fire. All the hours you spent doing that research project, all the disappointment when your group members wouldn’t follow through. Gone, like it never existed.
Yoongi’s holding your hand in his, and he’s busy drawing little circles with his thumb on your palm. Your head rests soundly on his shoulder, and you sigh into him, comfortable in where you are. The whole group piles in more papers, as you lament about the shitty professors and the shitty group projects and the shitty caf’ food and the shitty grades. Yoongi turns into you and nuzzles gently on your forehead. You feel his soft lips graze your temple, breath warm on your skin, tingles rising through your body, and you’re right where you want to be. Under the moon’s gaze with the person you love.
Before long, the breeze sends a chill through you that even the fire won’t remedy. Yoongi feels your shiver and unceremoniously removes his hoodie and puts it on over you, pulling up the hood and kissing your forehead. You always love when you wear his jackets; they surround you in his warmth, his smell. A smile plays across your lips until you notice Yoongi’s goosebumps.
“Hey,” you pout, “I don't wanna wear this if you’re gonna be cold.”
“I don’t wanna wear it if you’re gonna be cold,” he snaps back, smiling.
“Here,” you say, standing up from your deck chair. You take the step to get you to Yoongi’s chair, and sit in his lap. “This way we can both be warm, yeah?”
It takes him a second, but he wraps his arms firmly around you again, mumbling a “yeah, that’s fine” when you glance at him over your shoulder.
Your attention is called back to the group with Bom asks if you’re going to the Summer Romance Festival by the river next weekend. She’s been pushing you to get yourself out there more. The last time you were in a real relationship was high school, after all.
“I’d love to go; I hear they have the most beautiful fireworks display,” you start, “but I don’t think I will this year.”
“Well,” Bom says, “Why not?!”
“Because I don’t have a date, Bom!” you say, covering your face in the sweater paws you’ve made from Yoongi’s hoodie. “I don’t think I could find one in enough time.”
“Ya, just get Yoongi to go with you! You already do everything together anyway,” Eunha quips.
You notice that the steady rise and fall of Yoongi’s chest has stopped.
“Hey, you know we’re just friends, right Yoongi?” you look to him for backup.
The man nods, looking down and to the left.
“Okay,” Ireum speaks up, “In that case, do you want to go with me?”
“Wait, what?” you say.
“Do you want to go to the Summer Romance Festival with me? As a date?”
Yoongi tenses beneath you.
“Oh, I don’t know…” you breathe, “Are you sure?”
“One hundred percent. We can even get dinner before we go. Not too much, though. I’ll want to get us a treat from one of the dessert stalls.” Ireum says with a soft smile.
“Yeah,” you say, smiling back at him, “Okay. We’ll go together.”
Yoongi stirs beneath you. “Hey, can you get off of me?”
“What, why?” you pout.
“I said get off.”
“Yoongi, wh--”
He doesn’t wait for you to finish before he abruptly stands up, forcing you to catch yourself. When you look back at him, he’s walking toward the French doors that lead back into the house.
“Ya! What was that about?”
He keeps walking. You storm after him and slam the door, trapping you both inside.
“Yoongi, I’m talking to you! What’s your fucking problem?”
He whirs around.
“Oh, I have a problem?”
“Well, it sure seems like it.” you spit back, hands on your hips.
“Why don’t you go talk about it with your date, huh?” he says, gesturing out the window to Ireum. “Don’t you have some details to work out? He gonna pick you up? You gonna let him hold your hand? On your nice little extra special romantic date? I guess I’ll just fuck right off and leave you two alone, yeah? That’s what you want, cause we’re just friends and all.”
“Yoongi, we… are friends! You’re my best friend!”
“Did you ever for a second think that I could want more?”
“What?!”
“I fucking love you, Y/N! Isn’t it obvious?! I’ve loved you since the 7th grade. You remember when we played spin the bottle at Ha-joon’s house? Do you remember when you kissed me?”
“Yoongi…”
“No, let me finish. Do you remember the frat party we crashed junior year? Remember when we got up onto the roof and made out until we fell asleep? And then you weren't there when I woke up so I walked back to my dorm and then we just pretended it never happened? What the fuck was that, Y/N?!”
You reach for his arm, but he backs up, flinching away from you.
“I am so in love with you it hurts!”
“Yoongi.”
“But I guess if that guy can make you happy, then whatever,” he sighs.
“Yoongi.”
“Go on your little date and have fun and I’ll just go write some more goddamn songs about you--”
“Yoongi!”
He stills, pain flashing through his eyes.
“Yoongi,” you say quietly, easing toward him, “I had no idea. I left the roof to go inside and get you some water. When I came back, you were gone. You had been drinking a lot that night… and I felt really bad because… I thought I had taken advantage of you… Ever since I first kissed you at Ha-joon’s house, I wanted to do it again. And again. And, you looked so good that night and up on the roof when you were laughing about the quarterback I just… I couldn't hold myself back anymore. I thought surely you didn’t want to actually be kissing me.”
“Why the fuck would I have kissed you back, then?”
“You were drunk, and I--” you’re cut off when he grabs your wrist.“I have wanted to kiss you every time I’ve seen you since you first kissed me,” he says, glancing down at your lips. ”I want to kiss you right now.”
You take no time in closing the distance between the two of you, your lips crashing desperately. You’ve tasted his kiss before, but this time feels different. His hands are winding through your hair, pulling you deeper into his kiss. You moan against his mouth, and he responds with his tongue teasing your lips, asking for entry. You grant it, and he explores. One of his hands holds your jaw, the other still intertwined with your hair. His tongue runs along your bottom lip before he sucks it in, drawing out a small whimper from you. Taking his hand from your jaw, he runs it down your neck and décolleté and then down over your stomach and latches it on your hip, sinking his fingers into your skin. He gives your hair a small tug, just enough to break the kiss and expose your neck. He breaks off and trails kisses up your jawline and then onto your neck, speaking in between kisses.
“You have… no idea how… much I’ve… wanted to tell… you everything,” he breathes onto your neck, and you feel a heat pooling in your panties.
“Please, Yoongi…” you say as you begin to run one hand under his shirt. He stops kissing and looks up at you with the softest expression.
“What is it?” he asks as he grabs both of your hands in his, bringing one of them up to his mouth to sprinkle kisses along your fingers.
“You…” you begin and sigh, “you have no idea how much I want you.”
He stills.
“Are you sure? We don’t have to, I’m sorry, I just…” he trails off, eyes getting lost in the way his jacket is draped on your figure.
Him eyeing you up doesn’t make it any better.
“I’ve wanted you for so long,” you say, eyes pleading up at him. “I’m tired of waiting.”
After a beat, he sighs.
“Neither of us are waiting another minute,” he says, landing a quick peck on your lips and going across the room to the couch, grabbing the throw blanket that rests on the arm.
“Come on, I have an idea,” he says, grabbing your arm and leading you out of the front door, across the street, through someone’s back yard until you reach the top of a hill on the side of a fairway. You watch as he scans the area, holding the blanket tight. His gaze lingers on two hills near the green of whatever hole this is, where there are a few more trees and hills to block you from the sightline of those second story windows. He looks at you, eyes asking the question. You smile and nod, and that’s all he needs.
He tugs your hand and you both go running down the fairway, laughing along the way. Once you reach your spot, he quickly puts down the blanket and lays on it. You’re still standing at his feet, hands fiddling with the ends of the jacket sleeves.
He smiles up at you and holds his arms up in your direction and says, “come here, beautiful,” while doing little grabby hands.
You slowly walk up to where he’s laying and sit on top of his hips, feeling how hard he already is. His hand rests on your hip underneath the fabric of his jacket, the other holding the side of your face.
“Let me see you,” he says with a tinge of whine in his voice, and that gives you an idea.
You reach under the still zipped jacket and fiddle around. Yoongi looks up at you befuddled, the corners of his lips turning down slightly as he tries to figure out what’s going on. When your hands emerge, one is holding your strapless bra and the other is holding the halter top you had been wearing. You can’t believe you managed to unzip the back by yourself.
You throw the garments to the side, and watch as understanding hits his face. His eyes glaze over and he licks his lips, clearly shaken up by your little trick.
He carefully dips his fingers below the waistband of your shorts and eases them down. You put your weight on him and give him a few kisses as he continues to move them down your legs. Once they too have been tossed to the side, you sit back up, lips red and swollen from the kiss.
He gently reaches up to the zipper of the jacket and begins to slowly pull it down, letting the cool night air in. You feel your nipples harden at the exposure to both the night air and Yoongi’s hungry eyes. He swallows and licks his lips as he runs his eyes over every new inch of you that is revealed. Memorizing your form, your perked nipples, the way your chest rises with each anxious breath.
He reaches back up to the collar and eases one shoulder of fabric off. You move to take the rest off despite the cold, but he stills your hand with his.
“Keep it on, please. I love seeing you wear my clothes,” Yoongi says, intertwining his fingers with yours.
You bring his hand up to your lips, pressing them against his knuckles as you slowly grind your still covered core on his length. He groans in frustration, his pants getting tighter. You let go of his hand and run your fingers up beneath his white cotton v-neck, his ab muscles flinching under your touch. You help him remove his shirt, taking in the way his pale skin shines under the moonlight.
Seeing you look at him makes his cock twitch in his pants, and you think it’s time to provide him some relief.
You scoot back and start to undo his belt, getting low and staring up at him through your lashes. His breath hitches when you make eye contact with him, and then it starts to pick up as you undo the button and zipper. You shimmy down the denim, but leave his black boxer-briefs where they are.
You come back up to the waistband after releasing his jeans, and you take the elastic in between your teeth. You tug them down with your teeth while your hands pull them on the sides. His erection springs free, and he sucks in a fast breath when his cock meets the cool air. You take the opportunity to let your warm breath ghost over his throbbing cock, coaxing a deep groan from Yoongi. He puts his hand to your cheek, and you look up to meet his gaze.
“I don’t think I can last if you put me in your mouth, baby girl. We can do head next time,” Yoongi says, and your heart soars at the pet name. You ease back up so that you’re straddling him once more, and reflexively start to grind on him again.
“Please let me take care of you. Look how wet you are,” he says, running his fingers over your clothed slit, dipping one finger in to collect a bit of slick. He tastes his finger and says. “Yeah, we’re definitely going to need to do head next time.”
You blush at the thought of him buried between your thighs, vulgarly slurping up everything you have to give him. You clench just thinking about it, and Yoongi notices. He pulls your panties to the side, takes the head of his cock and presses it to your clit, teasing your entrance. His precum mixes with your wetness, and you can’t resist him any more. You’ve resisted him for years, and you’re done.
You slowly ease yourself down on his cock, only making it halfway down before you have to wait for you to adjust. You both look at each other; Yoongi’s jaw is set and his eyebrows are furrowed together. Your mouth drops open as you raise and lower yourself again, feeling the delicious stretch that accompanies it. You bottom out and begin setting a slow and gentle pace.
Your body is rolling steadily, moonlight creating beautiful shadows on your body as you take him in over and over. As many times as you’ve dreamed of this, you still didn’t fathom it being this good or it feeling this right.
Yoongi is everything you had imagined he would be and then some. The way he is looking up at you, the way his soft little moans escape every time you bottom out, the way his eyebrows furrow together at the sight of your dripping heat enveloping him. Perfection.
He takes his hands and trails them up the curve of your waist, stopping just below your breasts. He runs his thumbs over your nipples, making you shudder and arch your back, pushing your chest into his hands. He palms them, kneading little circles around your areolas.
You lean forward, putting your weight on him again, and he meets you eagerly with another kiss. He wraps his arms around your back, keeping himself under the jacket, and you pick up the rhythm. Yoongi scratches his nails all the way down your back. Once he gets to your ass, he cups it, squeezing gently. You place your forehead against his, and your eyes meet.
“Y/N,” he whispers, tucking a loose strand of hair behind your ear, “you look so beautiful on top of me like this. Please let me see this sight for the rest of my life.” You whimper at the praise, and pick up the pace.
“Please,” he continues, small grunts mixing in with his words, “Don’t wake up tomorrow and pretend like this never happened. Please... don’t break my heart,” he pleads.
“Not a chance, Yoon. I can never let you go. You’re everything to me. You’ve always been.”
“Baby, I am so close. Can I--”
“Come with me, Yoongi. Let’s do it together,” you say. Yoongi’s hands are on your hips and he’s thrusting up into you with an unrelenting pace. At this angle, you can feel his head graze against your cervix with each thrust, sending white spots in your vision.
You both reach your end at the same time, breaths mingling as you come down from your highs. You lay your head on his chest and listen to his heartbeat gradually slow. He presses a soft, lingering kiss to the top of your head and sighs into your hair.
“So…” he begins, “do you wanna go to the festival with me?” Yoongi asks.
“Are you gonna pick me up? Let me hold your hand? Have a nice little special romantic date?” you fire back, trying your best to sound like him. You sit up on your arm, letting your hair hang over to one side, and watch the light dance in his eyes as he laughs.
“Yeah,” he laughs, “I might even get us a little snack from one of the desert vendors.”

Best friend rigs the Secret Santa for Bakugo and yourself to get one another...
A/N: Hullo everybody!! This is part 2 (find part one HERE) of this Pinterest Prompt and part 3 will (hopefully) be the final part. I honestly thought this would be a 800 word fic but now we're barreling towards almost 5k all together whoops lol-
Warnings: Just a few swears here and there, SFW, its literally all Bakusquad shenanigans.
Word count: abt 1.5k, ENJOY <3
Tumblr media
"Soooooo~ Who d'ya get for the cringle?" Kaminari asks, leaning back on his chair dangerously to look back at me, sitting on the desk behind him. I raise my eyebrows, since I can't just raise the one, and flick my pen expertly in my hand.
"Mr. Aizawa," I answered seriously. "I'm thinking of getting him another sleeping bag. The musty yellow one isn't really his colour."
Looking genuinely confused, Kaminari looks around to see if anyone else overheard our conversation.
I laugh at him, and kick his chair forward, causing him to shriek as he sits squarely on his butt. I look down to see a folded note on my desk, opening to read it as Mr Aizawa tells us to settle down;
Lover boy was TOTALLY just greasing off Kaminari for making you laugh. I think someone's still jealous from the whole sleeping incident...
Catching Mina's eye, I give her an I don't think so look, which she promptly rolls her eyes at. Its been a whole weekend since the 'sleeping incident', where I had woken up with Kaminari's arms wrapped around my waist and his head nestled on my stomach. Accidentally of course. We, along with Bakugo and Kirishima, had fallen asleep on the couch in the common room, talking late last Friday night.
It really wasn't a big deal... Kaminari apologised several times. I got over it, he got over it, and I don't see why Bakugo, whom Mina just loves to call 'lover boy', would even care.
Plus, I have bigger problems. Like what to get said lover boy for the Christmas Cringle we were supposed to be exchanging this Saturday. He's literally impossible to buy for. Well, I could always just buy him a new pair of shorts or something, but since I've had a crush on him since literally the first day of school, it needs to be perfect.
So far I've thought of a cookbook, an apron, a scarf since he's always wearing the brown one, or maybe even a matching beanie; then again his hair has such personality I don't even know if he CAN put a beanie over those suspiciously natural spikes...
"Hellooooo, come on, Aizawa dismissed us," Mina says, nudging my shoulder.
I snap out of my daze and gather my things, following out of the nearly empty classroom.
"Decided on what to get monsieur Hothead yet?" I sigh, already having predicted this question.
"Nope," I say, popping the p as we walk to the dorm rooms. "I'm thinking of maybe getting-"
"Hey girls, wanna meet at the common room at 6 for a rematch of UNO?" Kaminari asks, coming up from behind us and slinging an arm over my and Mina's shoulders like he always does.
"Yeah sure, we're down." Mina answers, pinching him in the side so he lets us out of his grasp. We duck away, laughing and continuing our banter, before I catch Bakugo's gaze.
"You coming too, Bakugo?" I ask, walking up next to him, ignoring my heart trying to escape its cage.
"Coming where?" He grumbles, still looking disgruntled and angry.
"We're playing UNO around 6 today in the common room. Come on, it'll be fun," I say, trying to persuade him into coming, since he never usually participates.
"HELL NO! I don't have time to waste, especially with you extras," He yells at me. I huff, rolling my eyes and continuing to ignore the feeling of my heart beating in my eyeballs, as I grumble, "you never do," and walk back next to Mina, who was now somehow in a water fight with Kirishima, Kaminari and Sero.
Overall certain that I didn't let my nerves peek through while talking to him, I don't register what's happening as Sero grabs Oijiro's water bottle out of his bag, unscrews the lid, then promptly dumps it over my head.
With Mina, Kirishima, Kaminari and even Bakugo gasping in the background, I wiped the water off my face, before realising my mascara had probably smudged all over my cheeks and glared at Sero, who was slowly backing away.
I practically growl before chasing him, blindly grabbing my own water bottle out of my bag and drenching him, messing up his styled hair which has him shrieking "sorry, I'm so sorry!" and has me cackling in sweet, sweet revenge.
---
"PLUS FOUR?! AGAIN KIRISHIMA! ARE YOU KIDDING ME?!" Mina screeches as she pounds Kirishima's arm from next to him, who is laughing and judging from his reaction, barely feeling her punches. I know from experience, that Mina punches hard. He has to be really tough not to show an inkling of pain.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I just really have to win this one!" He says, shooting a guilty smile Mina's way. Maybe he just doesn't feel pain in general...? I stare at him with suspicion as Mina huffs and she rolls her eyes at him, promptly dropping a four plus for the next person in our circle, who just happened to be me.
"Hey! Not cool, hypocrite." I mutter.
"I had to get my anger out somehow. I'm pretending you're Kirishima. Go on, pick up those cards, you slimy rat," Mina says smugly.
Giving her a confused look at her weird logic, I continued the game, Shoji and Hagakure also having joined in half way.
Just as I'm about to announce UNO, Bakugo stomps through the common room and sits right in between myself and Mina, crossing his legs on the floor and leaning back on his two hands.
"BAKUBRO! YOU CAME!" Kirishima yells excitedly, Kaminari and Sero also whooping and cheering.
"Yeah, yeah, shut up. I finished my work and came to see what you idiots were doing." He says, voice gruff but not screaming for once.
I raise my brows at him, and he scowls and looks the other way, not being able to face me after he so rudely rejected my invitation a few hours ago.
"Oh please, you just couldn't handle the FOMO." I say teasingly, smirking at him without fully turning my face so the others can hear.
Sero stifles a laugh and Kaminari looks confused before the dots connect and he also has his hand clamped around his mouth.
"She has a green 7," is all he says, a sadistic look of satisfaction overtaking his features. It takes a moment for all of us to realise what he just said.
Mina cackles as she changes the colour to red, effectively stopping me from winning the game.
Shooting him a dirty look, I lean over to grab another card, simultaneously elbowing him hard in the shin, which he doesn't even react to.
What is it with these guys and their weirdly high pain tolerance?
Ignoring him now, we continue the game, Kirishima practically slamming his last card on top of the deck. "I WON, I WON, man that was so MANLY," He celebrates as I see Mina rolling her eyes and silently fuming. I begin to shuffle and hand out the cards deliberately skipping Bakugo, which doesn't go unnoticed by him.
"Oi, where are my cards?" He asks, annoyance evident in his tone as Kirishima continues to gloat in the background about how manly his win was and Kaminari complaining about how he never "gets the good cards." When I don't respond, Bakugo steals my cards from in front of me, leaning forward to play with the others.
Snarling, I grab my cards out of his hand, causing him to snarl back, until we're fighting for the 7 cards.
"What are you guys doing, there's a whole ass deck here, you know," Sero says, eyebrows raised and nudging Kirishima.
"These. Ones. Are. MINE." I gasp out, my knee coming around to jab him in his side as his hand pushes me down from my sternum. Oxygen knocked out of my lungs, I gasped for air as I tried to hold the cards out of his reach, my hero training kicking in as I snake my other arm around the back of his neck to hold him in an upside down headlock. Trying to push his forehead onto the ground, I give the cards to Mina, who laughs and takes them, after taking a photo of us.
Having apparently heard the camera click, Bakugo (after struggling a great deal might I smugly add) gets out of my head lock and zones in on Mina. "Delete that photo, Racoon Eyes," He snarls.
"Not in a million years. Awww, look Bakugo are you blushing?" She says, pointing at her phone.
Eyes widening and red creeping up his neck, Bakugo snatches the phone out of her hand and deletes the photo, before getting up and leaving.
"C'mon Bakubro, she's just joking," Kirishima says, following him out.
"Yeah man, you didn't even play a game yet," Sero adds.
"I HAVE STUFF TO DO!" He screams, seemingly going back to his old self.
"Didn't you just say that you finished your homework?" Kaminari asks, furrowing his eyebrows.
"SHUT IT, CHARGEBOLT! I DON'T NEED TO EXPLAIN MYSELF TO YOU," he says a tad too harshly, turning slightly to glare at him with bulging eyeballs. Kaminari closes his mouth and shuffles his cards, trying not to set him off again.
"Bakugo-" I start, but when he doesn't turn, I find myself letting him leave.
Staring dejectedly at Mina, she gives me a giddy smile and grabs my phone, going onto her messages and smirking as she shows me the photo he just deleted.
"I sent it to you as soon as I took it. Thank me later," she says, winking, as she gets up to leave, dragging Sero and Kaminari with her.
I look down at the slightly blurry photo, seeing me handing Mina the UNO cards under Bakugo with a desperate expression. He has his hand pressed down on my sternum, straddling my waist and looking down at me, with an unmistakable smile gracing his features. Unless that's just a new way of scowling.
The phone dims and all of a sudden I'm confronted with my own expression on the darkened screen.
A lovesick fool.
That's all I can see.
A/N: Ngl pretty proud of that ending. JUst in case I'm not as slick as I think I am, she meant herself and Bakugo, hehe <3
Notes, interactions and reblogs are highly appreciated <3

V-card anon: hi sorry about that first ask i kinda went into a fugue state (spelling?) altered state of reality maybe when i wrote that and damn near outlined a fic in your inbox
The way we played hot seat was either part of a larger drinking game when a certain card was pulled from a deck, or just on it's own. You sit in a circle, everyone has a drink, usually a beer or cider. In the card pull version, the one who pulls the card gets asked a question by every person playing and if they refuse to answer they drink from their drink. In the standalone, you do that but everyone gets a turn being asked until people get bored and leave. Fun way to find out shit about people. Usually the unwritten rule is that you can't lie. I imagine everyone sitting on shitty chouches and chairs in a semi circle around a table full of cups and bottles playing it
Questions i have been asked: are you a top or bottom? Do you like anal? Wheres the weirdest place you've fucked? Body count? Favorite position (sexual)? Fuck marry kill/ignore people in this room (EVERY TIME I PLAYED I GOT THIS QUESTION)? Tits or ass or other? Favorite non sexual body part ex. Thigh? Ideal fuck buddy? Sex regrets? Etc
Also more weird details i have head cannoned out for some drivers and most likely does not fit with irl personalities, do with this what you will, use it or don't i just have feelings. Also everyone is like compressed in age to like 20-27ish except for some of the grid who i will just think of as younger alumns who come back:

Mick: undergrad like Lando, also plays soccer or something, too sweet, also walks girls home/holds your hair back etc, cleans parts of the house that aren't his responsibility, higher alcohol tolerance than you expect, everyone is bizarrely protective of him, legacy member (his dad was a legend), drives a motorbike around campus and can't decide between law and psychology, actually studies, met reader through the frat and she would die for him, brings her to class on the bike sometimes because the bike is faster
George: business major, frat treasurer, three ring binder business casual in class kind of guy, nice enough, shirt comes off when drunk, runs marathons and a podcast about investments, best notes in the game and great study partner, actually studies, is drinking monster at 6AM but not because he stayed up late, he and reader met through the frat and sometimes drink wine and bitch together
Lance: hockey player, legacy member, studies sometimes, sarcasm on point, great at stack cup, very chill, knows every good nap spot on campus, also has high alcohol tolerance, is the kind of person who does well in the cold but does not like it, wears headphones so people don't talk to him, great one on one but not in crowds, business major and minor in computer science, probably also met thru Lance's gf but vibe as more introverted people and will cover for each other if one does not want to go out

Notable alums:
Checo - dad, successful in finance somehow (he looks like an really successful accountant of CFO to me idk why)
Kimi - dad but people forget he is, holds the record for most drinks in 24 hours that will never be come close to by anyone else, shows up on random alum weekends with 2 kegs, legally cannot tell you what he does or he would actually have to murder you
Valterri - was good at a sport when he was there, now a very effective lead engineer at an architectural firm
Seb - environmental or mechanical engineering, all around good guy with someone the best grades in frat history
Alonso - legendary for sexual exploits (consensual)
Anyone I put as actually studies is probably the type reader would hang around for more serious stuff/schoolwork and would probably be closer to, with the exception of Dan bc I feel like he'd be like we're friends now :)) we shall hang or Charles bc he will just show up. I also imagine she has a pretty good friendship with any existing gf, however if a driver does have a gf and he is the love interest sorry bb girl u gotta go for the purposes of this fic
Sorry this is so long hahaaaaaaa glad you liked my Charles thoughts ilu

Arkham Horror LCG: Investigator Tier List
I've never done a Tier List, but yesterday I felt a sudden urge to do so :P And what's a better subject for the first ever ranking like that, if not characters from my favourite card game? Well, you could probably name a few, but it doesn't matter now, since that's what I'm going for!
The Tier List is highly subjective (especially the top row) and maybe one day I will explain what made me put each character on its place one day. But it would probably require a whole post for each Investigator and, well, that's a lot of work :D But we shall see.
Important info: while some investigators are presented by their promo graphic, I judging them based on their official, cycle version
So, without further ado, here is my ranking
Tumblr media
If you are interested, I add some explanation regarding the ranking below
In the first group, of course, I put my favourite Investigator from each class. I feel like Mark and William are pretty universally claimed to be the best Guardian and the best Survivor. As for others, well, Norman is super fun to play. In my eyes, he is super flexible and you can basically make him do anything you want. Just don't put him through Forgotten Age :P Dexter and Trish are also super fun and they work amazingly as a duo.
The second category is for characters that can do their part without any issues, allow for interesting builds and are overall fun to play.
The third category is similar, but, in my eyes, those Investigators can prove to be slightly problematic. Especially, due to their deck building requirements, significant weakness or stats.
I think "Amazing for a good combo" is pretty self-explanatory. You either: a) Have to carefully prepare the deck and then have a lot of luck when drawings cards - especially, Rex b) Have to pair this investigator with a right team - especially, Carolyn
Forth group is the middle ground. I don't have any strong feelings regarding those guys. They work well, but I think there are better choices
Not gonna lie, the fifth group was made purely for Roland, but then I reminded myself that Harvey exists :P Yeah, Roland's significant weakness is super painful and Harvey's hits right in his significant ability. In this regard, it's kinda similar to Mark's, but solider boy can easily manage his. Especially, since it doesn't bother him at all if you pull it during the first rounds. You can't say that about Harvey.
Okeish characters are those that I don't find that interesting to play. There are so many better choices...
Yeah, I don't like Skid and Calvin. I know the second one at least gets some love, but Skid is so far behind his Rouge buddies.
You know, I kinda wanted to put the Body of Yithian before Lola, but I couldn't be bothered to add the picture :P But we can pretend it's before her. Lola is just so... you know, Lola. The idea behind her is interesting, but I don't think it works well. Maybe one day I will grow to love her.

Secret Santa
Summary: The BAU holds its first Secret Santa, and as fate has it, you pick your Spencer Reid. But you aren’t the only one with feelings. Gifts tell all.
Pairing: Spencer Reid x reader
Word Count: 1550+
A/n: We were going to do Secret Santa at work but shit hit the fan, and half of the people don’t want to give to the other half. So, I’ll substitute it with fiction. Please enjoy 🎅
Tumblr media
Considering the amount of time the group spent working, finding everyone on the team that one perfect gift would be time-consuming. So, you suggested Secret Santa. 
Penelope loved the idea. She went around to gather everyone available and dragged them to the bullpen. Rossi, of the first to hear, offered his house to host the event on Christmas Eve. 
Gaining momentum, you pulled a piece of paper from your desk drawer and went to work. Most of the team gathered around to watch as your fingers folded the page into small rectangles and then tore at the edges. For each sliver of paper, you wrote a name for each member of the team. And then concealed the information by folding each piece. Morgan came back with a hat from lost and found. 
"Who wants to draw first?"
Morgan stepped up. He rubbed his hands together wickedly and drew from the hat, picking out a scrap. He revealed it to himself, keeping an even face. 
Penelope couldn't contain her excitement and pranced to you. Unlike the others, she didn't contain her thrill of the pick. You would guess Morgan, but there wouldn't be one person she wouldn't be happy to buy presents for. 
Prentiss stuck her hand in. She was smart enough to step back and wait to unfold hers when no one was watching. In a room full of profiles, one could never be too careful. 
Rossi didn't seem too thrilled with his pick but went back to stand beside Prentiss, trying to look over her shoulder at hers. 
JJ pretended to be selective, choosing one playfully to grab another one instead. She followed Emily's lead. Waiting until later to look. 
Reid was the last in the bullpen and stood off to the side, watching everyone else as they took their turns. 
"Reid?"
He bit his lip as he approached to pick between the last three. Once he pulled one, he unfolded it without concealing the corners of his lips. 
"Who'd you get, pretty boy?"
Spencer panicked, hiding the name in his fist so Morgan couldn’t peek. "That's not a part of the game."
"We have a case," Hotch called out from his office door. 
Morgan patted Reid on the back. There would definitely be more teasing later. 
The group filed into the meeting room one by one. Last, you extended the hat towards Hotch. Raising a brow, he diligently selected a scrap. He unfolded it and gave you a look. "Secret Santa?"
Nothing could fool him. When you smiled at Hotch sheepishly, he returned the smile, tucking the paper into his coat pocket and resumed his solemn expression. And you wondered if he'd picked you. 
You retrieved the last paper, putting it in your pocket for later. 
Tumblr media
The flight back home was when you remembered the piece of paper. Luckily the case hadn't been long, or else you'd risk running it through the wash.  
As the others slept and rested, you chose the privacy of an empty row to unfold the paper.
Reid.
Of course. 
"Get somebody good?" Reid sat down across from you. And you entertained the thought that with his high IQ came with mind-reading capabilities. 
"Is there anyone bad?"
"I guess not."
You rested your cheek on your fist, staring at the scrap in concentration. "I don't know what to get them."
"You're lucky you looked at yours now. I've been worried about that the entire case. Slowed my reading speed down to ten-thousand words per minute."
You chuckle but offer your sincerest advice. "Whoever it is will love what you get them because it's from you."
"Thought that counts, right?"
You played with the paper between your fingers, and an idea popped up into your mind. "Right."
Tumblr media
On Christmas Eve, everyone arrived at Rossi's home around seven. Rossi had spent the afternoon cooking an Italian dinner, and nothing had ever smelled more welcoming. 
Each team member discreetly left gifts on a table along the wall of the large window looking out onto Rossi's backyard, lit with twinkling Christmas lights. Presents varied in size, some wrapped, some bagged. Each gift with a tag addressed to who without the giver's name. It was more fun for profilers to guess. Though by the time everyone sat down, there were two fewer gifts than people present. 
"I'll go first," Rossi offered. Instead of going to the table to find his gift, he left the room, only to return with two handfuls of gift bags. "Merry Christmas." Rossi went around the table, handing a bag to each team member. When he gave you a bag, he beat answered your impending question. "What? I got myself." Returning to his seat as he continued. "So, I decided to get the same wine for everyone, since everyone depletes me at these gatherings."
"You should've picked from the hat again!" 
"You didn't say I could pick again." He sassed back. "Why doesn't someone else go? Reid?" 
Reid pushes his chair back but halts as you place a pack of cards on the table. You hold up the box, showing everyone. "Normal pack, right?" Everyone watched with a curious look. You hold it out towards Reid with your left hand. But with your right, you wave it over the box, and it disappears. 
"You've picked up magic?!" Spencer radiated as you make the deck reappear, this time without the box. Everyone claps, and you bow in your seat. 
"I thought I may try and attempt to impress the great Spencer Reid. And I've got a few more tricks up my sleeve for later." You send him a wink. "Who's next?"
"Go, kid." Rossi encouraged you. You walk over to the presents. Penelope, Emily, and then you spot your name written on a medium-sized gift bag. It's not too light nor too heavy as you bring it back over to the table, taking a seat as you pull out the red and green tissue concealing it. 
It's a handbag. A cinched sack with a dusty rose print with a white stripe along the top. And a pristine designer name on the front. 
You'd seen this bag… somewhere. But the memory was fuzzy. 
"Wooooah." JJ is the first to see the label. "That's nice." 
Penelope leans over JJ and snatches your bag from your hands. "You would call a Guess bag nice. This is a beautiful, crafted stretch of the fabric!" Morgan and Emily are stretching their necks. While Hotch and Rossi's brows furrow at the hysteria.
You're scanning everyone's faces until you look across from your seat and see Reid, the only one unalarmed. 
"I don't get why people are willing to spend hundreds or even thousands of dollars on a single fashion accessory." Rodeo Drive. A case. You're walking down the street, passing by the rich, feeling like a have-not. 
"It says that the owner of said handbag is worth something," You say to Reid, stopping in front of a designer's display window. Mannequins are dressed in obnoxious attire, but you're staring at a dusty rose bag displayed on a pedestal. "If someone buys it for you, they're telling you that you're worth wasting a lot of money on. If you buy it for yourself… then you're telling yourself that you're worth that." You'd seen many designer handbags you wouldn't be caught dead wearing, let alone paying the price of a down payment. But this one is modern and… your style. You can't help but gravitate towards it.
"You like that bag." He isn't asking. It's a fact. 
"I don't like myself that much." You force yourself to keep walking, but Spencer lingers, looking at the handbag another moment. 
You push back your chair, excusing yourself from the party. You miss the way the team looked between themselves, eyes one by one landing on Reid, who was quick to follow you into the hallway. Reid’s footsteps are too familiar not to recognize. When you turned on your heels, you nearly crash into him. 
He was worried you would be mad, but your demeanor spoke the opposite. You would hardly meet his eye, lips pressed together in a straight line. 
"I gave you a magic show, and you got me a purse!"
"I liked your show!" Spencer affirmed. "I loved it, actually."
"Why did you get me that bag?"
"Because you're worth that much to me." Now his eyes diverted your gaze, and the meaning behind his words clicked. "If anyone else had gotten me for Secret Santa, they would've bought me a book. But you gave me something that will last me a lot longer than five minutes. Something no one else would get me."
"The opportunity to ridicule me until the end of time?"
"A new shared interest!" He corrected. "And… maybe we could see The Magic Duel downtown sometime. I hear they're good. A little too into the banter-"
"Like as a date?"
"Yeah," he breathes out with a smile. He'd been holding that thought too long, you notice. 
"Sounds like a plan." You grin back at him.
"But you're paying. That purse really wiped me out."
Your laughter breaks up the tension, and Spencer takes your hand, leading you back to the group. 
If buying an expensive purse hadn't shown you his true feelings, his willingness to touch another human's hand did.
