The sun don't shine when I'm alone
Miguel was stuck in a cycle of getting together with Dana, spending a couple months of bliss by going on dates with her and exchanging sweet gestures to having a messy breakup over something completely minute. It was toxic, he could admit that much to himself. But he didn't wish to stop it. If his own mother couldn't provide him with love as a child, why should he expect for someone else to love him?
He was an anomaly.
Or at least, that's what he's been led to believe for most of his life. A being that was incapable of being loved properly, of being the odd one out in every situation he was in. From being the tallest one in every single room he stepped in (often having to crouch his head) to being the black sheep of his family.
He stayed with Dana as a method to prove to himself that he was worthy of loved by someone, even if it wasn't expressed in the healthiest of ways. But even he was starting to get at his ending point. "No, I told you about a week ago that robotics was starting back up again and that I'd be busy with the meetings," Miguel explained for what seemed to be the thousandth time this week. Think about the good moments.
"So are those meetings more important than spending time with me now?" Dana's voice was starting to get annoying to his ears, the tiny whine in her voice starting to irritate him. He was sure she was putting up that pout that she thought got him weak at the knees every time he saw it. Really, he only ended up relenting to whatever she said so he couldn't have to see that awful expression on her face for much longer.
"No, they're not. But just try to understand that I have different interests outside of this relationship. We can go out this weekend if you want to do that," he was running out of options to keep her happy. It seemed like the more that he wanted for this relationship to work, the more that she kept slipping away from his fingers. "It's just.. I don't know if I want to be in a relationship where my needs aren't being seen."
She'd be back within the week. Maybe even less if she got up to that point of loneliness. She'd come back over to him with an apologetic smile on her face, expressing how she was willing to forgive him for his past transgression. "It's okay, I know you get busy sometimes but as long as you're willing to change, I want to give this another shot," she'd whisper in his ear, the two making up in an empty janitorial closet. An exchange of empty promises slipping from Dana easily forgotten with the heat of the moment.
He came back home from a robotics meeting that had run late, a small sigh escaping his lips as he stepped inside. There was no one to welcome him as he stepped in through the door, no one to ask him how his day had gone at school today. "How'd your day go?" he asked out loud, pretending that it was his mother's voice instead of his own echoing through the living room. "It was good, thanks for asking," he felt like a fool for talking to himself, rolling his eyes as he set down his bag on the couch.
Or at least, he'd thought he was alone. He heard two voices coming from the basement, his brother's and someone else's. He made his way downstairs, his eyes widening slightly upon the sight. The spaceship model that he'd spent every available second of last week building was now crumbled by a basketball. Gabriel's eyebrows shot up to his hairline, moving closer to Miguel as you stood in the corner.
"Look, we're sorry. The game got out of hand," Gabriel started off but he released that all his attempts to apologize would be futile upon seeing the glare Miguel was shooting in his general direction. "So if you knew, why'd you come downstairs to come play?" Miguel answered back quickly, seeming to have his comebacks ready at any moment. Part of you started to feel guilty, needing to take some kind of responsibility for this as well.
"Hey, it's not his fault. I'm the one who suggested that we play down here," you could sense the tension from a mile away, deciding to ease the situation a bit. Even if that meant you had to take the fall for Gabriel's mistake. You could see the gratitude in Gabriel's expression upon seeing you walk over to them. "So? That doesn't change the fact that my project's still in shambles."
And almost as if on cue, one of the pieces that was barely hanging on fell to the ground with a dramatic thud. You could see the vein on Miguel's forehead get closer and closer to popping the more he looked at the remnants of what was otherwise, a perfect model rocket. The only reason the two of you had even come down here in the first place was because Gabriel wanted to show you the design that his brother was working on.
You'd expressed some interest in wanting to join the stem club at school, but you eventually decided against it after seeing that it was majorly ran by guys. Guys that had a reputation for being overwhelmingly misogynistic. You decided it'd be better not to join and just wait until next year, if you even wanted a chance of getting your ideas being heard out.
Most of them didn't even bother to listen to you outside of school so you didn't delude yourself into thinking that being in a club would magically change that. As much as you really wanted to join.
So you settled for observing from the outside, walking into the robotics classroom when it was deserted to look through the different parts modeled and the different things that were presented. And occasionally, Gabriel would let you sneak a peek at what the club president, Miguel, was up to.
"I can help you with the project if you want," you suggested, hoping that it would detonate the situation. The two brothers had been on thin ice since Miguel managed to get with Dana, leaving you to comfort Gabriel as he cried about the loss of his girlfriend. Miguel's face relaxed instantly, his gaze flickering over to you instead. "I'll do it myself. You'd probably just end up messing it up," his tone came out cold, dismissing the two of you out of the basement.
The tension in the air was palpable, thick enough to slice with a blade. You stepped away from the table where the model rocket had once been set up, choosing to go stand by Gabriel instead. You would've figured that was the last of the discussion but you heard Gabriel mumbling underneath his breath as he headed out. Miguel's ears instantly perked up, his teeth gritting against one another. "You have something you wanna say to me?"
Miguel had practically given Gabriel a loaded weapon now. The two of you collectively knew that Gabriel wasn't one to keep his mouth shut. But maybe Miguel just wanted to keep the argument going? You weren't completely sure how this family dynamic worked at all. "Pinche amargado," Gabriel spoke up, a scoff escaping from Miguel's lips. (fucking bitter)
"Amargado porque tu no puedes dejar mis putas cosas en paz." (bitter because you can’t leave my stuff alone)
"Igualito a ti, cabron. Tu con Dana y yo con tus cosas." (just like you. you with dana and i with your stuff)
"Vete a la puta v-"
Their voices rose with each retort that they gave one another, the two almost at a brink of yelling at each other. You looked around to try to create a diversion, opting to just flicker the lights on to see if they'd calm down. You didn't have much hope in your strategy but Miguel fell silent after the lights had been turned off. Two pairs of eyes were directed towards you when you turned the lights back on, both expressing some form of disdain.
"Look, it was my fault for ruining your project so allow me to take some kind of responsibility and help you rebuild it. It's not going to be done on time tomorrow if you do it all by yourself," you spoke up after they both had a couple seconds to calm down, reluctance visible all over Miguel's face. Though, he seemed to be actually considering the possibility now. His brows furrowed as he stayed quiet for a couple seconds, eventually huffing out what sounded like a 'fine.'
"Just call me when you're done here," Gabriel relented as he walked over to the basement door, paying once last glance to you over his shoulder. You nodded to his words, looking back over at Miguel. He was already hunched over his desk, starting to take out the pieces of the rocket that had been affected. Maybe you'd get lucky and he wouldn't continue with his angry rant?
I see your eyes look through my soul
The two of you worked in silence for the most part, a couple mutters escaping from Miguel as he worked on taping the pieces back in their correct order. "Irresponsables," he muttered to himself, gluing one of the small pieces together. He wasn't too keen on having you around, his body turned away from you as he worked. But yet, you also had some kind of urge to help him out after you'd aided in the destruction of his project.
"How'd you get into aerospace?" You decided to break the ice and ask a question, looking up from the piece that you were assembling back together. His expression seemed to lose the original intensity that it once held, his body relaxing in the rolling chair he was in. "I didn't. I pursued robotics at first and then there was this competition to build rockets. I started to learn about them, about the different space missions from the past and eventually my interest grew from there."
You nodded along to his answer, going back to working on the piece you were reconstructing. His gaze travelled over to where you were working, a bit surprised by how well you were doing. He'd expected for you to make an even bigger mess of the situation and excuse it with 'just trying to help.' "Are you into aerospace as well?" You hadn't expected for him to actually engage in the conversation but it was a question that you liked getting asked about. While most of the conversation revolves around aerospace, you couldn't deny that he was fun to talk to.
"If you like it that much, you should join. A couple members apart from myself are graduating this year and a couple chairs are going to open," he noted, handing you a wrench to tighten a bolt. You tightened the bolt, grabbing one of the nuts that scattered through the floor when the wing fell off. "I'll think about it," you told him, though your voice held no conviction towards it. He wouldn't push the topic further but he could see just how excited you were to be working on the project.
So much that you didn't even demand to be credited as one of his partners for the project.
Much as he hated to admit to himself, he found that it was quite nice to spend some time with you. Especially when it came to do something that he enjoyed doing. It was a sharp contrast from his time with Dana, going from having surface level conversations about each other's day. Maybe a relationship shouldn't have to involve so much work? Maybe every conversation didn't have to end in a fight after all.
Instead of trying to fix things over with Dana by following her like a lost puppy, he decided to fix things up with Gabriel. Because a part of him secretly wanted to see you again. The modified rocket ship had gotten a couple compliments from the other members, some of them even claiming that it could go to nationals. He wasn't completely sure if they were sucking up to him for a recommendation, but he knew that you'd appreciate the feedback.
So, he decided he'd stop being so strict with Gabriel and lend his stuff over whenever he asked. To which he got a couple of surprised looks and hesitation at first. The next step in the process was for him to work out an apology. But how does one exactly go about apologizing for stealing a partner? Especially when said person had brought up concerns to feeling inferior in every shape and form to himself? He'd dug himself into a hole he had no idea how to get out of.
Miguel awkwardly stood in front of Gabriel's room as he heard the thud of a couple tools inside, his younger brother being more into mechanics than robotics. He decided to swallow the last bit of pride that he had, stepping inside the threshold. He could sense the surprise seeping out of Gabriel as he sat down next to him, grabbing one of the screwdrivers. The two worked in silence for a while, working in perfect synchrony as they focused on building an engine.
"I'm sorry for what happened with Dana, by the way. I know it's not worth much but I am. I shouldn't have taken your trust for granted and I shouldn't have done that considering how you feel about me," Miguel spoke up after they were getting close to finishing, looking over at Gabriel. He saw a frustrated expression all over his brother's face, something that he wasn't particularly used to seeing. "You know, you keep saying what you shouldn't have done but the fact remains that you still did it. But thank you for that apology, I guess."
Miguel started offering to take the both of you to places, choosing to tag along just to hear your laugh whenever Gabriel would make a joke. Even if he wanted to be the one telling you these jokes. "Hey, what do you call a Drosophila who likes to drink?" he decided to break the silence as he drove you two to the movie theater, looking over at you through their rear view window. "What do you call it?" You decided to indulge in his 'joke,' if his attempt could even classify as that. "A bar fly."
You let out a laugh more so out of how bad it was, your eyes crinkling as you did. The look on Gabriel's face made the laughter escape from your lips much louder. "Can't believe you're actually laughing at those bad jokes," Gabriel muttered, staring at you like you were a creature from outer space. "Shut up before I leave you on the side of the freeway," Miguel called out from the front seat, biting back a smile of his own upon seeing that he'd managed to make you laugh. Maybe it was worth it looking for those corny science jokes last night.
Miguel had quickly forgotten about the void he was trying to fill with Dana, only reminded of it when he saw her leaning against his car. Her glossy lips were wrapped around a lollipop, her brown hair combed back into a bob. All he could think about was all the dirt she was probably getting on his car now. "You haven't answered any of my calls," Dana whined as he approached, getting off his car to go over to him. "For good reason," Miguel grumbled, opening his car door to toss his backpack inside. He could see Dana trying to scramble for some kind of logical answer, a slew of curses thrown his away once she realized what'd he meant.
The cycle was done. They were done this time, for good.
"How come you're not out at those graduation parties and stuff?" Gabriel mused as he took a bite out his burger. "You think he's type of person to get invited to parties?" You decided to tease Miguel a bit, taking some of his fries before dipping them into ranch. No he wasn't. Not that he'd ever admit that to you though. "The scent of weed just irks my nose, man," Miguel responded, a small scoff coming from the younger brother in response.
Empty cans of beer and articles of clothing washed up to the surface of the bay, the sight making you grimace in disgust. But this was where Miguel had decided he wanted to go after graduation. "I'm gonna head to the car, it smells like ass out here," Gabriel told the both of you, tossing the final rock he had in his hand out into the water before walking off.  To be fair, it really did smell like ass. The contamination from the water and the ships around mixed in together, overall just providing an unpleasant scent.
"I'm gonna head back too," you told Miguel, starting to get up from your spot. Before you had the chance to dust yourself off properly, Miguel had stood up and placed a hand on your shoulder. "Just wait a second, please. There's something that I have to ask you," he seemed fidgety, looking everywhere else but you as he talked. You stayed silent, giving him the chance to speak whenever he was comfortable enough to. "Do you want to go out on a date with me?"
He was starting to prepare himself for the upcoming rejection, making a mental list of all the songs he'd add to his breakup playlist later on. He'd probably end up blasting those at full volume in the basement while taking out his anger on a model robot, bracing himself to ignore the yells from Gabriel coming up the stairs. "Yes," the words didn't register in his mind at first, his eyes drifting over to your mouth as he made out the syllables.
Wait, what?
"You're actually being serious?" he had to ask. Had to double check that this wasn't a prank or something that Gabriel had set you up to as some kind of revenge for what he did with Dana. Then again, Gabriel hadn't exactly mentioned anything about you towards him. Not that they talked a lot nowadays, but he figured that Gabriel would've at least expressed some kind of concern if he knew. So.. there was really only one possibility left.
You actually wanted to go out with him.
The time that the two of you spent together that summer was much more than the time you actually spent apart, from going out to exploring different museums to different science conventions. Your main concern had been how Gabriel would take it, not wanting to overstep your boundaries as his best friend. "Be careful, okay?" was all that he said when he saw you walking out of Miguel's room with a borrowed shirt on. Gabriel was more concerned about you than Miguel throughout this exchange.
The transition to when the school year started was difficult, given that the two of you had somewhat conflicting schedules. Despite all this, Miguel was sure to schedule a minimum of two dates for each month. Miguel was determined to put the effort into making this relationship work now that he managed to get with you. He'd make sure to pull all nighters the day before he had a date with you to get his assignments done on time, wanting nothing more but dedicate the time designated to you fully.
You didn't know who else to call when college decisions went out, choosing instead to call Miguel. You knew he'd been swamped with lectures and research essays as of late, but you didn't want to share this moment with anyone else. Not when he was the one to calm you down with each mini panic attack you got after hitting the 'submit' button on your applications. "Hola princesa, what's up?" his voice drawled out like the sweetest honey, your breathing slowly starting to calm down.
"Hey, I hope I'm not bothering you too much but I was wondering if you could come over. College decisions came out and I can't get myself to click through the messages alone," you told him, your leg bouncing as you awaited for an answer. "I'll be right over. I'll bring some burritos," he answered, the line clicking to an end shortly after. You waited with anticipation for the doorbell to ring, practically jumping off your bed when you did hear it thirty minutes later.
"Just open it, I'm sure they accepted you. They'd be dumb not to," he sat down next to you as you scrolled to the last one you had left to open. The one you'd saved as an attempt to keep your hopes up from being too high. You had four acceptances, two from out of state and two in Nueva York. "I can't. What if I just have my hopes up?" you had your face hidden behind your hands, your words coming out muffled. "Even if they did reject you, it's not the end of the world. Just look for yourself."
UC Berkeley had been more of a reach school for you, the other four being your safety nets. Your grades hadn't exactly been up to perfection but you held out the hope that the extracurriculars you got involved with and the volunteer service you did was enough. As well as the robotics credential that Miguel encouraged to go after. You let out a sigh, trying to calm yourself down before clicking on the letter. The words blurred together as you read through it, a bunch of gibberish registering in your brain. Miguel had his hand on your thigh, gently rubbing small circles on it.
The touch was slowly bringing you back to earth, your breathing starting to calm down. You didn't have to say anything, he just knew what you needed before you even had the chance to realize that you even needed it. You directed your attention back to the monitor upon calming down, reading over the letter. "I got in!" you exclaimed as you look over at Miguel, his hands immediately wrapped around you. "I told you so. They'd be stupid not to have you in their school."
They'd even offered you a scholarship! The only downside was that it was in California.
The thought hadn't even registered in your head when you were applying for a spot, the only thought in your head being that of fulfilling what you wanted. You looked over at him, the same look of realization upon him as he saw 'Berkeley, CA' almost taunting him through the screen. The idea of doing long distance wasn't something you were quite fond of, given the fact that it just seemed like a slow way to prolong the fact that the end of the relationship. And yet, you didn't really want to break up with him.
"Would you stay in Nueva York if I asked you to?" Miguel knew he was being selfish by asking this, he knew that he had to let you go and pursue what you wanted to do. But he didn't want to. He wanted you to stick by his side and pursue your dream here. "I would stay if you did. But I think a part of me would also end up resenting you for asking that of me," you responded, your hand tightening its grip slightly around him. It was a gesture meant to comfort him but your words carried more weight than that simple squeeze did.
He knew how much you wanted to go, he'd been there when you filled out the application. From the process of setting your information in the system to reassuring you that you were qualified enough to get in, despite how much his heart ached at the thought of having to be without you. "It was just a hypothetical. I wouldn't ask you to do that for me," he quickly told you, taking a bite from his burrito to busy himself with doing something. Your happiness was much more of a priority than his own.
You were inclined on just leaving without saying goodbye but the thought of him thinking you abandoned him was almost too much for you to handle. You ran over to his house after you'd finished packing, hoping that he hadn't gone back to campus yet. "He's upstairs," Gabriel told you upon taking note of your sweat covered forehead, his nose scrunching up. "Thanks!" you called out as you made your way inside, almost tripping your two feet when you rushed up the stairs.
Baby, you were everything I ever wanted
"Are you sure you're okay with this?" Miguel asked you, his lips barely grazing above your earlobe. Your breath hitched in your throat as you felt his lips move down to your neck, his lips parting as he kissed the side. "Yeah, I'm sure," you responded after you managed to regain your composure, your head lolling back to give him more access to your neck. He took that invitation eagerly, his lips pressed on every inch of your neck that he could access.
His teeth sunk down just hard enough to leave a mark on your skin, his way of making sure that you'd remember him. At least for the following week that the hickey lasted. He'd settle for that much. The night never progressed from a couple heated kisses exchanged between the two of you, a wanton need keeping your bodies pressed against one another. For a moment, it was as if nothing else in the world really mattered. You were just two people, not college students that would inevitably have to talk about what their future would be.
"I don't think I could ever just be friends with you. It's better if we just end things here," Miguel spoke up in the middle of the movie the two of you were watching, a boring scene from a movie about how robots took over the world. As if you weren't living through that now in the year 2079.
"Yeah, I guess so. Thank you for the time together," The breakup had been amicable, easy. There were no harsh feelings between the two of you, only simple understanding that the relationship wouldn't work out if the two of you dragged this on. However, as friendly as it had been, that didn't stop you from shedding a couple tears when you got home to finish packing. You almost wished he had given you a reason to hate him so that it would replace the sense of yearning you felt at the notion of leaving him behind.
That was supposed to be the end. You'd go on about your life without having to be around Miguel again, Without feeling his beefy arms wrap around you in the mornings as an attempt to keep you in bed for a little longer, or having his lips pressed against your forehead whenever you needed a bit of reassurance. That was until you found yourself in his bed when you came back to Nueva York to celebrate Gabriel’s birthday. It was the only time you allowed yourself to come back.
How Miguel allowed himself to fall into another cycle, he wasn't sure. Maybe because this one wasn't beaming with red flags. Or maybe because this one didn't leave him feeling like an unlovable mess the next day. Despite how many times he told himself that he wouldn't repeat what he'd done with Dana, he still found himself picking you up from every trip at the airport. Then again, this wasn't anything like the situation with Dana. Your relationship with him was healthy, you were good for him.
You'd usually end up at Miguel's apartment rather than your hotel room for most of the nights. The pent up frustration that had accumulated throughout the past year was unleashed on another, the sex all just that much more intense. "Couldn't stop thinking about seeing you again," he whispered against your skin, the words turning you into putty in his grasp. His kisses could follow soon after, his touch almost burning with how much desire he'd pent up. "Oh? And what were you planning on doing when you did see me again?" he would spend all night giving you the answer to that question.
On most occasions, you'd end up with your face buried in a pillow while he fucked you from behind. Your muffled moans would fill up the room, combined with the sound of rustling sheets underneath you as your grip tightened. "I missed you, princesa," he bent down to whisper in your ear, his lips trailing down your shoulder blade. The action in itself was sweet enough, but you couldn't focus on that with the way that his cock was stretching you out. "Missed you too," you barely managed to babble, your voice coming out hoarse.
Your hips rocked back into his, your ass jiggling with every thrust that he made. The grip he had on your hips would tighten, his balls slapping obscenely against your wet cunt. Your walls would clench around his cock, milking him for all the cum that he had in his balls while simultaneously coating his length with every drop of your slick that you could offer. "Fuck, right there!" he could make out a couple words of what you were saying from time to time, but he couldn't help but want to tease you about it. "Yeah, right here?" he mocked, his rhythm never faltering.
You were so drunk off his dick that you didn't realize he was mocking you half the time, simply nodding in response to whatever he told you. "Yeah, right there!" He loved the way your voice rose whenever his finger came down to play with your clit, the way the nub throbbed beneath his fingers for some kind of stimulation. These little breathy moans that you were letting out, the whispers of his name, they'd all remain imprinted in his memory as material whenever he needed some kind of release. That is, until the following year when he would have new material to work off of.
Miguel loved the way you looked whenever you were excited to share something with him or the way your eyes lit up whenever you saw him at the airport waiting for you with a bag from your favorite fast food place. But the way that you looked whenever you unraveled underneath him was something that just simply couldn't be topped. Your legs shook violently as your orgasm approached, your walls tightening all that much more around him before unclenching to coat his cock in your release. His orgasm would follow suit, his cum filling up your cunt up to the brim.
Despite the fact that the two of you were completely able to and sometimes were even encouraged to, the two of you stayed loyal to one another even if this arrangement had no need to. As much as you wanted to try dating someone else, you knew that in the back of your head you'd just try to find Miguel in another person. And that you'd ultimately end up disappointed by the end of the affair. The two of you provided a sense of comfort in one another that wasn't easily replicated by another person. Or at least, you hoped that he felt the same way about you.
And as much as he tried, he couldn't get his hand to simulate the same pleasure that he felt while fucking you. It felt like a cheap replacement if he was being completely honest. His fist couldn't clench around his cock the way that your walls did, pulsing as your cunt milked him for all it could. His spit couldn't compare to the way your slick coated his shaft completely, the loud squelch that bounced off his walls whenever he pulled out. As pathetic as he felt for being looking forward to your yearly appearance, nothing could give him the same satisfaction you did.
You came back to Nueva York with a mission this time around. The office that you'd been working at after getting your degree had expanded throughout most of the east coast, a shiny job opportunity appearing right at your doorstep. You were going to tell Miguel that you planned on staying this time around, that you wanted to rekindle the old feelings you'd both been trying to suppress. You'd even resorted to practicing what you were going to say to him while you were on the airplane instead of clicking on one of the stupid Hallmark movies available on the flight.
Bought a wedding ring, it's in my pocket
You'd practically been bubbling with anticipation for the entire plane ride, different thoughts of how Miguel would react rummaging through your mind. Would he be excited? Would he leave the party to be with you? You felt all the breath leave your lungs as you stepped inside the party hall, your attention immediately going to Miguel. He wasn't wearing something too fancy, a white button down shirt and a pair of black slacks. Even then, you couldn't lie to yourself that he looked like sex on legs.
You set down the small gift bag you'd brought over for Gabriel, a new set of tools you heard him mention he needed on a FaceTime call last week. You made your way over to Miguel, a small smile appearing on your face as a look of recognition flashed across his features. "Hey," you greeted him once you were close, your hand up in a wave. Before he got the chance to say something, a woman came over to the two of you and handed him a drink before remaining by his side.
"Are you one of Miguel's friends from around here?" you asked the woman, given the fact that you hadn't heard any mention of her from Gabriel.
"Uh, no. This is actually my fiancée, Tempest," Miguel spoke up for the first time this night, your eyes widening as you did a double take on the pair standing in front of you. They'd even color coordinated their outfits tonight.
You could've sworn your heart dropped to your chest at the word fiancée. You forced your face to remain neutral despite the conflicting emotions rummaging inside of you. Your gaze flickered over to the woman, her ring finger accentuated with a pretty silver band, an expensive-looking diamond plastered right in the middle of it. Your throat constricted the longer that you stared at the ring, the sight eventually blurring into nothing until you forced yourself to look away when she pulled her hand back.
Your mind began to swarm with different thoughts, wondering when exactly did Miguel find the time to get engaged. Last year when you saw him, he hadn't even mentioned having any sort of commitment towards anyone. It was funny, thinking about it now. He'd taken you to the airport, his head tilting down to give you a small kiss on the cheek as he bid you goodbye. "I'll see you next year," he told you before you went through airport security. Now you wish you would've went back to his apartment instead of back home.
"Nice to meet you," you forced the words to roll out of your mouth, an unnatural smile taking place on your face. The type of smile that had your cheeks hurting from how hard you were forcing it. you shook her hand with just a little too much force before reminding yourself that it wasn't exactly her fault. If anything, this situation had been your fault. your fault for being so used to this comfortability, of the knowledge that he'd always be here waiting for you.
You'd gotten so used to coming to Nueva York to find Miguel at your beck and call that it didn't even cross your mind he would find someone. Someone who prioritized his happiness as much as he prioritized theirs. "Nice to meet you as well, Miggy here's told me a lot about you," she responded with a warm smile, unbeknownst to the internal struggles that rummaged through your head. Miggy? He'd gotten so pissed off when you called him that, but now he was acting casual about it?
"You mentioned that there was something you wanted to talk to me about?" Miguel's voice broke you out of your train of thought, making you realize you'd just been standing there awkwardly for a couple seconds. You looked away, the sight of him too painful to bear. Just the fact that the woman's arm was wrapped around his, the intimacy of the situation reminding you of what you'd never have again.
"Never mind, just forget it. I hope the two of you have a good time at this party. Congratulations once more," despite the fact that you had a million questions regarding the situation, you decided that it would be better not to ask them. At the end of the day, a couple questions wouldn't change the fact that he was still engaged. You forced yourself to remain polite before excusing yourself to go to the drinks table. You really needed to get fucked up right now.
You felt pathetic as you stood alone in the corner of the room, your fingers gripping the glass of beer as if it was your lifeline. All you could do was look out into the people smiling and having fun, a part of you wishing that it would be you instead. You tried your hardest to pretend when Gabriel came around, trying to dance with you, but the ploy fell through as soon as he dragged you to the dance floor. Your eyes met Miguel's for the first time that night, a flash of concern across his features after seeing your attempts to hide your pain.
But maybe, if you would've looked hard enough, you would've been able to see the same sense of longing lingering behind his eyes.

Gale headcanon Part 2: Wedding Day
Part 1 Here
Galemancers, y’all really liked my first post with all of Gale’s (very likely to be real) wedding planning/day of antics.
I do think this would make for a fun fic and I wanna write it, but yours truly is not in a position to start any new projects at the time being (not saying it will never happen, just right now isn’t a good time!). However, I still wanna add more to this goofy idea of mine.
Here goes!
Wyll giving them lessons for their first dance as a married couple. It’s as hilarious as it is painful to watch. Gale has two left feet and keeps stepping on Tav’s toes. Tav cries out in pain and Gale feels awful so he conjures a rose to apologize.
G: “The Soirées in Waterdeep don’t move with such grand gestures and arduous foot work!” W: “That’s why you asked me to help you, Gale. Baldurs Gate throws magnificent parties.”
Gale keeps reading and rereading spell based cookbooks to try and whip up the reception meal in one fell swoop. He doesn’t trust a caterer and wouldn’t like the taste of anyone’s food but his own.
Tav keeps begging him to let someone else do the work since he’s stressing himself out with these small details, but all Gale does is smile and give Tav a pat on the head and a kiss on the cheek.
G: “Don’t worry about me, my love. Our day will be perfect, just like you are.” T: “I don’t want it to be perfect, I just want you to relax and have fun.”
Tav goes to a separate room to sleep the night before and finds their bed adorned with flowers and petals in heart shapes
Tav finds a note beneath all the bed decorations
“My dearest love, I write this with nervous hands and a fast-beating heart - we are almost upon our wedding day. What seems like a grand milestone is only just the beginning of an even more remarkable adventure. Our days of journeying through Faerûn may be over, but it only prepared me for the most important journey of them all: being your husband. You are everything, Tav. You have made me a better man. My connection with you is as innate as mine with magic itself. From this day forward, I will devote the rest of my life to your happiness. The beginning of that chapter is upon us both, and I am nearly bursting (despite my lack of an orb to make it so) in anticipation for it to begin. With utmost love, your soon to be husband - Gale.
Tav won’t be able to sleep so instead they read this letter over and over again 🥰
Gale lets Tav wear whatever they want on their big day and even paid for it
He just wants his bb to be at their happiest and this is the least he can do
Tav ofc hires Figaro the dressmaker and Zara the mummy to do makeup
Gale turning around and seeing his spouse for the first time the day of 🥺
He’s literally unable to breathe when he sees them walking down the aisle, however he is partly relieved because he was still anxious about Tav getting cold feet
Gale tears up as he reads his vows 🥺
Their wedding rings bearing the same gem that Tara has on her collar
Scratch is summoned 🥺 and becomes a permanent member of the Dekarios household, and even gets his own gem at the ceremony 😭
Owlbear gets the distinct honor of being ringbearer. He takes it very seriously. Because he knows he will get a snack for it later.
“Withers I would like to recruit a hireling” says Gale *puts an apron on the hirelings to have them clean up after the guests*
Halsin whittles them a pair of swans with their necks in a heart shape as their wedding gift. It becomes Tav’s most treasured knick knack in the tower.
Lae’zel gifts them a pair of swords, which is probably customary for her but not so much for couples in Faerûn (Gale fashions a coat of arms above the hearth with them anyway)
Astarion: “I am the gift.” 🙄
Tara finally begins to warm up to Tav when she fully realizes that Tav makes a great addition to the Dekarios family
Tara shows this by flying into Tavs lap and rubbing her face against Tav
Lasts for only about 30 seconds however. She can’t be seen letting her guard down to anyone.
The night ends, Gale and Tav retreat back to the tower with full hearts and a gleam in their eyes, proud of all they’d done to build their lives and excited for what comes next.
But there’s still going to be copious amounts of sex that night of course. They barely get past the threshold of the doorway before they’re ripping each other’s clothes off.
They’re drunk, but not just because they’ve had a few drinks. Love drunk, adrenaline drunk, life drunk.
“They deserve this night, after all they’ve been through,” Karlach says to Wyll as they are walking back to the portal to Avernus.
“Some day that will be us,” Wyll replies proudly.

i don’t know how tumblr works but here’s a request i think ? 😭😭 i imagine that younger!reader would just be SO nervous meeting the avengers for the first time because they’re like nats second family so older!nat would just be holding their hand or something cute <33 also love your work, you’re so talented !!
Second Family
Older!natasha romanoff x younger!fem!reader
Warnings: cussing and fluff
“Are you ready to go babygirl?” Natasha asked as you came out of the bedroom wearing a black flowy sundress and matching shoes to go with it. “Are you trying to tease them or me?” She said as a big smirk was forming on her face. You chuckled “only you darling but I do want to impress them so they will like me.” You said and she chuckled as she shook her head at you. “Of course they will like you. I talk about you all the time and they like you already.” She confessed and you gave her a shy smile. “Really?” You asked her and she gave you a smile back just as big. “Yes they do. They are so excited to meet you.” She reassured you.
You took a deep breath in and slowly let it out. “Okay…let’s do this.” You said confidently even though you were slightly dying on the inside. Natasha took your hand in hers and went out the front door together. “Are we going to ride your bike natty?” You asked her and she gave you a knowing smirk. “Of course we are. I miss riding my baby and having my girl wrap her arms around me.” She confessed as she handed you her helmet and you snickered at the first part. “That’s what he said.” You whispered to yourself as you put on the helmet and fastened it. Nat gave you an unimpressed look and shook her head at you. “You are something else baby.” She said as she got up on the bike with you following behind her.
“Yeah but you love me.” You said softly while you wrap your arms around her waist. “That I do bunny. That I do.” Natasha stated as she started the bike and drove off to the compound where her second family was waiting. Once you arrived, you were in awe of the building in front of you, it was huge. “Here we are.” Natasha said as she opened her arms wide in a dramatic manner. “Wow….it’s amazing!” You said while admiring brick my brick. “Wait until you see what Tony did on the inside.” Natasha explained to you as she gave you a playful wink which made you blush. You took of her helmet and sat it on the seat as nat takes the keys out and puts it in her leather jacket pocket.
“Ready to go in babydoll?” She asked you gently as she softly took her hands in hers. You looked up at and gave her a nervous nod. “I guess so but don’t let go of my hand natty…” you said as you lightly squeezed it and nat smiled down at you. “I’ll never let you go sweetheart. The both of you went to the front door and nat went up to a screen pad which shot out non dangerous lasers and scanned her face. Once it was done scanning, the screen lit up green and Friday welcomed her in by opening the door and greeting her. “Welcome agent romanoff. Everyone is in the living room waiting for you. I will advice them now about your arrival.” Friday said and your mouth dropped opened in shock. “That was so cool! Is the voice like everywhere? Can it actually see us?” You asked her and more as y’all walked toward the living room.
“Yes she can. I programmed her to where she’s always listening and looking everywhere.” Tony said and you realized that the both of you walked in as you were asking your million of questions. “O-oh…that’s really cool…” you said shyly and squeezed Natasha’s hand a few times. She gave you a reassuring smile and kissed your forehead. “Guys. This is my girlfriend y/n. Y/n, meet my family. There’s Tony, Steve, Thor, Bruce, Clint, Wanda, vision, Maria, yelena, and kate bishop.” Natasha said proudly and you gave everyone a small but genuine smile. “It’s nice to meet you all. I hope we can all be friends and get along.” You said nervously and everyone gave you a warm smile.
Yelena came up to you and tossed her arm around your shoulder. “I’m Natasha’s real sister so don’t ever try and hurt her got it? We are both trained assassins so I won’t hesitate to hurt you.” Yelena said menacingly and you gave her a smile. “I’ll let you do that if I do ever hurt nat in any way.” You stated and yelena gave you a huge smile. “I like her.” She said as she unwrapped her arm around you and gave you a big pat on your back. You gave her a shy smile as you went to different people of the group and had a small conversation with each and every one of them.
You really bonded with Kate and Wanda, you hope you can really start a friendship with the both of them. Once you were introduced to everyone you were still pretty nervous as y’all sat around in the living room playing different types of games like truth or dare or telephone, which was requested by Thor himself. The entire time y’all were playing, natasha had her hand in yours the whole time. “Thor truth or dare?” Clint said as he took a big gulp of beer. “Dare!” Thor said excitedly and Clint gave him a evil look. “Don’t do something stupid now.” Steve warned and Tony slapped him on his arm. “Shut up! I wanna see this unfold.” Tony exclaimed as he watched with excitement. “I dare you to eat 1,000 pop tarts in one go.” Clint dared Thor and Thor gave him a big smile. “I accept lord bird man!” Thor exclaimed as he went into the pantry and found dozens among dozens of different poptart boxes. As Thor was doing his dare, Kate’s turn was next to ask anyone she wanted to and she chose you.
“Okay y/n…truth or dare.” Kate asked you and you thought about it for a moment. “Um…dare?” You said and shrugged your shoulders. “I dare you drink whatever drink I make you.” Kate said and gave yelena a daring and evil smirk. You gulped nervously and stared at nat scared. Natasha looked at the pair and gave them a glare “if you make something that will hurt her I will personally shove my foot so far up your ass that it will come out of your mouth.” Natasha threatened and Kate looked like she was going to shit herself but yelena still had an evil glint in her eye. “Yeah yeah she won’t die.” Yelena waved her sisters threat off and pulled Kate into the kitchen to make the secret drink. “Should I be worried?” You asked everyone and they nodded their heads yes.
“Damn it.” You cursed under your breath and Natasha gave your hand a comforting squeeze. A few moments later and the girls came back in with a questionable drink. “Drink up.” Yelena demanded and you gave her a look. “What is it?” You questioned as you took the cup from Kate’s hand and inspected it. “Orange juice and chocolate milk.” Yelena simply stated and you looked at it in disgust while every one gagged besides Tony. “Hey…it isn’t THAT bad. I was drunk and I wanted to try it.” He shrugged and you shook your head in disbelief and took it like a shot. After you chugged it you got a huge body chill that went through your whole body and yelena started laughing as Kate gave you a thumbs up. “That was amazing! You need to bring her around more Natasha!” Yelena exclaimed and looked down at you with an adoring expression plastered on her face. “I definitely will.” Natasha said as you ran into the kitchen to get water to get the taste out of your mouth. Meeting nats family was nerve racking but you had an amazing time and couldn’t wait to hang out with them again.
Bonus: Thor ate all of the pop tarts in the pantry and he was stuffed like a thanksgiving turkey. He wasn’t sure if it was 1,000 pop tarts but it sure was a lot, even for him.
A/n: 1264 words. I hope the anon enjoyed this and I’m sorry it took so long to make. I hope everyone else enjoyed it and remember to stay hydrated and to rest! I love y’all! :)

OMG THE LITTLE FAMILY STUFF IS SO CUTE now imagine ivy like accidentally calling the reader amd clarisse mom for the first time OR OR someone (percy) like coming over and being like "hey I don't think this parenthood is a good idea here" (bc just imagine clarisse junior in the future) and ivy is wtf so she starts defending them and being like THOSE ARE MY PARENTS (10 yo vs 12 yo standoff go!!)
LETS GO I LOVE THIS I LOVE THIS FAMILY I LOVE EVERYTHING
the first time ivy calls you mom it’s not on purpose
you just basically are her mom
all she knows is you treat her how a mom is supposed to treat their daughter
you’re probably like dropping her off at arts and crafts class and she casually goes
“ok bye mom see you later!”
cue the tears
you’re screaming and crying and hyperventilating and RUNNING straight to clarisse who is training and she’s like OH MY GOD WHAT HAPPENED ARE YOU OKAY
and you’re like
“i-i-i-ivy oh my god clar ivy-”
“SOMETHING HAPPENED TO IVY?!?!??!?” protective mom mode activated
“NO SHE CALLED ME MOM”
“oh. OH. SHE CALLED YOU MOM?????”
“I KNOW” 😭😭😭😭😭😭
clarisse is so happy she’s like aw omg she’s a little jealous on the inside but she’s fine she’s fine she’s fine
she’s not fine if you couldn’t tell
but clarisse doesn’t have to wait too long bc the next day clarisse wakes up at like 3am and has to go to the bathroom and little adorable baby ivy sits up too rubbing her eyes and is like
“mom? where are you going?”
she’s about to LOSE. HER. SHIT.
but it’s late and she doesn’t want to overwhelm ivy so she keeps it cool and just says she’s going to the bathroom she’ll be back soon
anyways later you both sit ivy down and ivy is like WOAH WOAH WOAH WHATS HAPPENING
and you’re trying to be professional and adult about it
but you’re like “YOU CALLED ME MOM!!!! YOU CALLED CLAR MOM!!!!!! AND ITS OK!!!!! WE LOVE YOU AND WE ARE YOUR MOMS BASICALLY!!!!!”
ivy is like “I DIDNT EVEN NOTICE BUT I LOVE YOU MOMS”
happy family ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
just to clarify y’all PERCY DOES NOT ACTUALLY THINK CLARISSE AND Y/N ARE BAD FOR IVY ITS JUST THERES TWO OF THEM CAN WE ATTACH A LEASH TO THE LITTLE ONE MAYBE
so let’s pretend it’s just another random rude ass 12 year old who’s name will be…. hm…… mark!
so mark and ivy are like chilling around at the training grounds waiting for their turn and then mark is like “oh my god you’re so bad you can even hold the sword correctly”
ivy is ????? she’s holding it the way clarisse taught her to hold it so what…….
“um? idk…. this is how you hold it dude…..”
and then you come over innocently and you’re like “hi ivy baby you forgot your water i’m gonna leave it right here!” and she’s like “ok mom!” bc you’re her mom and she loves you
so then mark is like “NO WAYYYYY YOU CALL HER MOM????”
“YES BC SHE IS MY MOM DO YOU HAVE A DAMN PROBLEM!?!?!?”
“i just feel sorry for you like your own parents didn’t want you so the best you could get was two random teen girls??? LMAOOOO i bet they’re horrible ‘parents’ too ”
“BITCH IM GONNA-”
ivy may be tiny but she uses that to her advantage and jumps on top of people
so she starts scratching and kicking and hitting screaming “TAKE IT BACK TAKE IT BACK TAKE IT BACK”
bro mark is crying
one of mark’s friends drag ivy off of him and then you and clarisse run over at the commotion
and all you see is this kid crying, another kid holding ivy back- her hairs all messy and she’s kicking and screaming still
the kid very quickly drops ivy when he sees you
you have to THROW yourself in front of her so she won’t attack him again
clarisse just presses the tip of her spear into mark’s armor and he’s like “IM SORRY IM SORRY WAHHHHH WAHHHHHHHH”
ivy is laughing hysterically “THATS WHAT I THOUGHT THATS WHAT I FREAKING THOUGHT YOU LOSER!!!!!!!”
you’re in such shock WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR PRECIOUS BABY
clarisse is proud but confused
ivy is hugging you, her face pressed in your stomach when clarisse crouches down next to her
“you wanna tell me what happened?”
“well first he said i was holding my sword wrong but I WASNT i was holding it like this the way you taught me and then mom came over and then he started laughing when i called her mom and then he said you guys were probably horrible parents and i was SO MAD so i started attacking him”
ivy rn: 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
you’re horrified shocked and angry like it’s not an idea situation but ivy is loved and safe what more do they want from you?
you feel kinda shitty bc you love ivy so much but if you’re not what’s best for her than you’ll do anything
clarisse hugs her and kisses her head “good job protecting this family little warrior”
and you’re like “yes ivy you did an amazing job but remember violence is not always the answer”
(clarisse and ivy share their secret look again)
but later that night while ivy is getting ready for bed you’re telling clarisse that you’re concerned, maybe everyone who throws you the dirty looks are right, maybe you’re not what’s best for ivy
clarisse is ???
“ivy…. baby….. uh…. equals…. mine??? ….confused..”
but ivy overhears you and then SHE starts yelling at YOU
“EVERYONE IS SO SAD AND MAD AND I HATE IT LETS JUST BE HAPPY AND YOU GUYS STOP BEING MEAN”
ok 🫡
eventually clarisse expresses it more articulately to you than ivy can, “who cares about what anyone else thinks? i’m happy, your happy and ivy’s happy. everyone else can get punched in the face!”
IVY IS EXCITED
anyways happy family again ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

hi! idk if youre taking requests or not but if you are can i get a fluff alphabet with danielle from new jeans? thank you in advance if youre able to <3
i’m always taking requests pls feed me i’m starved
the bae fic is in the works i promise
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
candy -> mo jihye ver
aka the fluff alphabet
admiration (what does she absolutely adore about you)- danielle is a little ray of sunshine, she doesn’t adore something particular about you, she adores you <33
body (what’s her favourite body part of yours)- is hair a body part? she loves to play with your hair! <3 like making braids etc. if you have shorter hair she just likes to brush her hand through it 🫶 (don’t go all ‘what if i don’t have hair’ on me pls i’m failing chemistry)
cuddling (how she likes to cuddle)- she is taller than you because god said so. therefore, danielle will fight (throw a pillow at you) if you don’t let her be the big spoon. conclusions? she’s the big spoon
dates (what’s her ideal date)- okay but take dani to a park and just sit on a bench while watching the birds and clouds <33 she’s deffo big on taking you out and naming the shapes of the clouds 🫶
emotions (how does she express her emotions around you)- i actually don’t know how to explain this one, you just feel her all i guess? like, danielle is very open and i wanna say she has big emotions but i don’t know if y’all know what i mean 😭
family (does she want one)- 100% yes. dani wants a family but she wants to have one after newjeans and whatever you’re doing. she thinks if you’re both taking the responsibility of creating a family, you should be able to give it all of yourself :((
holding hands (does she like to hold hands)- omg yes 🤭🤭 and she likes walking around and swinging your hands too!!! dani likes if you go on short walks with her in her free moments and you just talk and hold hands :((
injuries (what would she do if you got hurt)- she would cry 💔 my girl would freeze for a second before having a breakdown, what she’d supposed to do? it fortunately would only take her like two minutes before she’d actually help you
jokes (does she like to joke around)- a little humour is healthy for the both of you 😚 but danielle would never pull any of those ‘break-up’ pranks on you >:(( she wouldn’t want to hurt her bby </3 so the members are legally allowed to kick ur butt if you do a prank like that on her 👹
kisses (how does she like to kiss you)- very gentle 🤭🤭 she deffo wants to hold hands when you kiss :(( omg kissing in the rain with dani 🥹🥹
love (what’s her love language)- dani the typa girl to make you lunches 🫶 you work with her? girlie has two lunchboxes always packed so you can eat together :(( you don’t work with her? you get a kiss when she leaves in the morning and she puts your personalised lunchbox on the table with a little cute note 🤭
memory (what’s her favourite memory together)- it’s kinda cliché, but remembering how the two of you first met makes danielle go all soft :(( it’s funny because you mostly remember how in awe she was (you didn’t even knew you were the cause!) and she just remembers how cute you looked that day <33
nighttime (how does sleeping with her look like)- okay, hear me out ☝️ you’re laying face to face on your sides, you have your arms wrapped around danielle while she lets you lean your head on her arm, draping the other one over you 🤭
oddity (what’s a quirky thing about her)- i genuinely believe she listens to everything you say and takes it seriously. remember that one time during your third date when you suddenly mentioned you really like frogs? well, guess who just got you a froggie terrarium
pet names (what does she like to call you)- sunshine! that’s deffo your contact name tbh. ‘my sunshine ☀️’ 🤭🤭🤭
quality time (how does she like to spend time with you)- ima be honest, she just like to cuddle. put on a cool movie and cuddle with dani 🫡 w a t c h l i t t l e m e r m a i d w i t h h e r 👹
rush (does she rush into things)- no, absolutely not. well, most of the time. dani really does thing things though but… when it comes to you, she can get impulsive 🫡
secrets (how open is she with you)- being open is very important in a relationship, her words not mine. she does keep a couple secrets but it’s mostly surprises or work related stuff, really
time (how long did it take for her to confess)- three dates, danielle initially thought she’d hold on longer but you were just too cute for her to resist! she was in love the moment you stepped into her life
upset (what’s her reaction when you’re upset)- she asks who dimmed her sunshine 😭 she probably offers some cuddles to help, or ice cream! while i don’t think she’d really fight someone (but i can see some exceptions), her members definitely would protect you too
visibility (is she afraid of the public opinion)- of course. she’s more afraid of the people she’ll meet rather than the ones online :(( maybe because it would show how little ‘fans’ are real
warrior (how often do you fight)- fight? with danielle? unless it’s her throwing a pillow at you because say you wanna be the big spoon this time, there is no fighting. it’s just not allowed legally
x-ray (is she able to read you)- duh, of course! she knows your needs better than you yourself do. she’s like a mom in that sense <33
yes (how would she propose to you)- a huge romantic! she’d get her members to help her distract you and get everything ready. i feel like danielle would propose somewhere sappy, like where the two of you first met
zen (what makes her feel calm)- doing domestic thing with you is just what dani needs to make her day better 😭 that and cute lil walks through the park (while holding hands ofc)! doing things so close to earth is just so precious to her :((
part of [the fluff series]

Saw the ask saying thank you for actually giving us an MC that represents what having mental health issues is really like and I agree. I kinda feel like there isn't enough IFs like this. It's not just about the scary bits tho those I'm gonna fucking love because that's a rarity in itself in the community. But it's about the complex relationships we have with people. It's not all let's fall head over heels at first sight and everything is sunshine and cupcakes. MC has a really difficult relationship with not just their family but with people in the community as a whole seeing them as some sort of problem. Not just a person struggling.
The family dynamics are also very real unfortunately because favoritism to some parents is very common even when they won't admit it outright and it can weigh heavily on the mind in the sense of why you aren't good enough or as good as your siblings. Then people wonder why that specific person isn't reaching their potential. There is alot to say about nature vs nurture.
And out of pocket yes but I also appreciate that this is about people and not about people getting their rocks off. I see the trend too much lately where everything is just smut overshadowing the actual premise of the story and that being all you see in asks. I like this community. I like that you guys make me think about shit I wouldn't have and I appreciate Jude for responding in similar fashion and never telling us (me) I ramble too much lol I've unfortunately had a writer tell me that before 🙈
Stop y’all are inflating my ego! (Please continue 😏). But yeah I felt like sometimes people who have mental health issues might not want to play games where instead of acceptance they receive suspicion, fear and sometimes disgust (unfortunately very real) but that’s what I wanted to do. Given it’s a small town and given that it’s the 90s people reacting like this to mc is common. I’ve always liked to write about very dark themes not with an intention to glorify but to depict. Even if mc has done violent things that doesn’t mean that the discrimination they face is just (if you read chapter 2 the way the detective treats mc is awful and it’s a greater indictment on society as whole who group all people who suffer with issues as one).
With the family yeah? Percy and mc are in the same boat. Both of them stunted because they weren’t the favourites of their parents and they were shown that all their childhoods.
With the smut, you see I like it but I don’t like it over plot. For me smut in IFs only ever truly hits if the relationship is there, if it’s been earned. I’m fine with flings with characters who never show up again but sex with the principal romances, makes me feel more excited if that relationship feels real and it doesn’t happen sacrificing the logic of the story or interrupts the pace. Basically I can’t do porn without plot 😭 (oddly enough I can consume the prompts though but I have to be in love with the RO). It’s fine if some authors prioritize that over the story because it’s their choice and it’s respectable but I can’t. It doesn’t feel honest to the story to have mc jump straight into bed with the ROs. It’ll happen when it needs to.
Also I find your rambles are very cute, keep them going because I like reader feedback and reader gushes 💜

I'm having such a sad day I've not even watched the live yet 😔 I think it's because of the hiatus, I'm so parasocial 😭 it's stupid because I'm happy for them all taking a break, I think it will be good for their families, relationships, mental health etc. I'm looking forward to seeing what individual projects they pursue and I know they'll be back. But I've become so dependent on this constant new photos/information coming in that my brain hears "hiatus" and goes into panic mode. Anyway I'm just rambling now
Has your power returned? I hope you're not feeling as anxious today ❤️
Sending love
🌷🌷
Not stupid at all. I feel the same way. I’m still processing the announcement and I know people in my asks have already messaged me about it (will reply to all y’all after I’ve finished watching the show cuz I want to have the full context) but yeah. We’ve grown up alongside the guys. They’ve been at it for a decade now. It just won’t be the same without them. I’m sure we’ll have this discussion and more in the coming 6 months or whatever it is. For now, it’s okay to feel your feelings. It’s a bit of a weird thing. To look at everything they do and think “gosh this is the last time that they’ll be doing X for god knows how long.”
Watching the show right now. And I keep having to pause cuz I get so emotional over how good it is and how much love I have for these guys and their work. They’ve really done something special. Not just the music. But like even the people. Fans working on the live/ war child project and stuff like that. That’s so rare and precious and wonderful.
We’ll all be okay. And look after each other.
Yeah power is back but gosh I fuckin hate this “tropical storm Ophelia” bitch. Let me tell you, Ophelia does not fuck around. There’s a massive hole in my ceiling and my plumbing is fucked and I have a serious and stressful meeting in an hour. Also, guess who is back to smoking fully now??? 🙋🏻‍♀️
Yeah. Anxiety and emotions are off the charts. Proud of the boys though. And filled with awe and love for y’all. And it’s almost over I mean it’s Wednesday. We can do this. Gotta take Franklin out in a bit. Gosh I really shouldn’t have started watching the show haha.

My Uncle passed away earlier today and man, it’s just… Mom hasn’t cried yet but I know that she will soon. It doesn’t even feel real. He was always known as the one that you could count on in the family. If someone died or was sick and he knew that you didn’t have a way to get to that person or to their funeral, etc, he’d always be the one to pick your ass up early in the morning to take you. He used to give the tightest hugs ever and I used to hate it whenever he’d kiss my cheek because of his beard lol. I’d always wipe his kisses off whenever he wasn’t looking lmfao. But now, man… he was always the silly, loud uncle and we have sm fun memories of him even before he got into drugs and got really sick with his diabetes and stuff. I remember how he’d always be the one in the family to take everyone everywhere in his big ole green family van back in the day… he used to give all of the kids money whenever he’d see us lol. A dollar but a dollar used to go a long way back in the early 00’s lmfao. I still wish that he could’ve taught my siblings and I how to drive… he taught sm of our cousins and other family members how to drive but not us lol. The last time that I talked to him was on Mom’s bday the other day (on the 18th) since he called and he sounded so out of it over the phone… not his usual loud and happy self. Sometimes, whenever he would call us, he’d pretend like he was the police or like, a random white guy and we’d all be like “we KNOW it’s you, Uncle Dale 😩!” Lmfaooo. He used to do that sometimes whenever he’d knock on our door, too like boy, stop. I remember when my sis and I got in trouble back in HS for shoplifting (our friend got us into it orz) and he was the one to pick us up from the station and we were scared of our other uncle, the one that no one likes, that asshole, was gonna pick us up and beat us or whatever. But Uncle Dale picked us up instead and we stopped at a gas station or something? And he was like “Y’all know damn well y’all don’t do this but if you were gonna steal, at least do it RIGHT! Like this!” *proceeds to demonstrate how to properly steal something without getting caught right in front of us* lmfaooo. He stole some candy off the shelf and pretended like he tripped and fell to the floor all extra like, twisting around like a goofy and then got up and had the candy in his pocket like, that memory always makes me burst out laughing so much whenever I remember it lmfao. Like bro 😭! I think he gave us the candy, too lol. My sis and I were like 16 at the time I think? My Uncle man, he was just always so fun and happy! I don’t think I’ve ever seen him get angry before or talk badly about anyone like he was just a good dude. He used to be a butcher and stuff and I remember him living in a huge house with his ex wife (she was awful and used to treat him badly. He paid for her weight loss surgery. He put her through school and paid for their house and basically did everything for her no matter how awful she would be towards him and she left him for a White dude 🚶🏾‍♀️ etc etc. No one in the family ever liked her anyway, even Granny. And if Granny didn’t like you than… 🗿. I remember when her daughter tricked my sis, cousin, and I into cleaning up her room for her after we came back from our grannies funeral and only paid us like, $1 or something and we had to split it 🗿. I should’ve told my mom on her. We were at our Uncle’s house when this happened since she lived there and had a big ass room to herself and when my cousin picked up her nasty underwear, we all freaked out and he tossed it across the room 🗿.) I’m getting off topic but man, we have sm great memories of him. He got on drugs and stuff and he lost a ton of weight (he used to be really hefty and stuff but the last bunch of times that we saw him, he just kept on getting skinnier and skinnier…. I hugged him and was like “Uncle Dale, you lost sm weight!?” out loud and I immediately felt awful afterwards. Man……… I’m just… His son, our cousin, just passed last year. He was murdered and we still don’t know who killed him.

So I have reached the final chapter (for now it is)
The lvl of stress when Reader wanted to leave the room but Dani was blocking the door 🔼🔼🔼
Daniela, I love you but MOVE.
Anyway, LUNATIC IS GETTING SOFT????
It would be cute to have them see the Dimis through Reader's eyes and slowly grow fond of them 😭
And Dani mentioned before that sometimes Reader's scent is different, when they blackout and Lunatic takes over their body, so basically Lunatic sometimes hangs out with them.
It breaks my heart and makes me sad when Lunatic's all beaten up calling for mother, but Miranda couldn't care less :(
I wish they would join forces with Reader.
This chapter was full of pain too but thank you for the sweet family moment with all of them at the end 😭
Pls the sisters bickering and Cass' conversation with Alcina were so cute I was giggling the whole time.
I do hope tho, that Reader will have a conversation with all of them and at least briefly explain that there may come the day that they'll be in danger. Because rn they simply don't believe Reader would harm them or are like "we won't let anything happen to you🥺" while it's them that may die😭
It's also hard to listen to Reader and just do what they say to stay safe if they're kept in dark and confused.
Like if Dani knew what was going on perhaps she would just let them out of the room the first time they tried to fix things.
Anyway, my journey came to a stop for now, unfortunately. There's no other way than to patiently wait for the next chapter to be released (I hope I won't forget the events till then😭).
So let me say again that I love how you wrote the Dimis. It's actually my first fic with Alcina being a more significant character so I didn't come across any awful way she was written but I heard that some people say she's a bad mom so I'm glad to see her caring for and being soft with her lil fly babies. Because she does in canon too, clearly.
I didn't have any issues with Bela in fics either. But hell I am tired of the way Cassandra is, so I absolutely adore the one in the universe of your fic, I think she certainly is unique.
And Daniela. We know well about Daniela😭 So thank you so much for showing the world the Dani you created. She's such a sweet ball full of joyful energy and she does seem different from her sisters but girl's not stupid and understands what's going on around her.
And I will say again that I like the way you write in general, it's a pleasure to read it and don't worry, it does make sense :)
listen, i promise to have the next chapter out relatively soon?? i’ve been so busy with school and just in general being unable to focus :’)
BUT ANYWAY
*poor baby didn’t understand the urgency and why they couldn’t take time to explain everything :( she’s trying her best and that’s all that matters
*i feel we’re definitely getting into some territory where maybe, just maybe, Lunatic is starting to realize Miranda may not care as much as she claims to. like you said, the angst in them crying and calling out for her, only for her to not even spare them a glance? yeah, they definitely noticed (although in the moment, it became rage directed at Reader instead)
*i can tell you with certainty that Lunatic has hung out with them unintentionally 😭 they don’t ever do anything without Miranda’s orders, so they’ll just sit there all stiff with their lip curled. meanwhile, Dani sees and smells that it’s not really them, just watching them with a “what the fuck” face
*hehe, i tried to make it softer toward the end :D and give Cass some motherly love that most people don’t ever give to her. i need more of them just being a family rather than whatever the hell some people do to them 😭
*the irony of the “we won’t let anything happen to you!” 💀 like, yeah, nothing WILL happen to Reader, but y’all are gonna be in danger pls. but we’ll start to slowly see where they do notice things and start to put pieces together (as Bela is actually doing in chapter fifteen as of now), and a certain someone has already pieced together that they’re not all they seem, that maybe there’s a reason they smelled so strongly of Miranda…
*definitely! i have something special with that planned this chapter, though i won’t say who ends up knocking some sense into Reader (though you can probably guess who)
*hehe, i’m really glad you like it so far!! and i am hoping to not have as much angst with the next like, 1-2 chapters. still some because i’m incapable of writing a chapter without it apparently, but nothing as bad as what happened in 13&14. i have about 5k rn and there’s a bit of angst in the beginning and i have some planned later, but it’s all good for plot, i promise 😎
ack, i hate how much people just think or assume she would mistreat them for any reason whatsoever. and the people who make her hurt her lil babies for the sake of a Reader/OC… i have some words to exchange with them, oh my god
i do try my best to write them as “canon” as possible, even if there are a few moments here and there where they may be OOC. they still all have their own interests and hobbies outside of whatever Reader is doing in their spare time, and i feel plenty of people don’t do that well enough ?
i have such an issue with the way people write Dani and Cass, my god 😭 Dani may be a little out of touch with reality and may struggle with the concept of personal space sometimes, but she’s still smart and an adult, not some toddler that doesn’t understand a single thing going on. and people writing Cass like she’s nothing more than a cold-hearted, horny, sadistic person with absolutely no care for her family or partner is so bland. let the girl be aloof on the outside but care deeply once she lets people in!!
it’s been so fun to read your thoughts on what’s going on and the interactions between everyone, and i look forward to what else you’ll have to say when i (eventually) write chapter fifteen :-)
i might post an actual excerpt later, but in the meantime, here’s a cute lil snippet of a scene i have planned with our very sweet but very energetic Dani <3

15 questions/15 people
I was tagged by @wikiblair :) thanks b <3
1. Are you named after anyone?
Kinda? Part of my name is my mother’s middle name
2. When was the last time you cried?
Yesterday. My job puts an awful amount of stress on me, homesickness and personal problems. I tend to have breakdowns quite a bit due to that :/ I’m getting better though and starting to warm up to my new life
3. Do you have kids?
Hell no. Nor would I ever want any. I’ll stick with being the cool, gay aunt 😎
4. Do you use sarcasm a lot?
Oh god yeah. All the time. It’s part of my personality. Sarcasm, mom jokes, and flirting. Can’t make me stop
5. What’s the first thing you notice about people?
I would say personality and whether or not I think we’d get along. Also I tend to notice if they’re an outgoing person or not
6. what’s your eye color?
Green :) If I had to really describe it, it’s like emerald green with even a lil grey in there. Looks kinda like this emoji’s color->🌲
7. scary movie or happy endings?
Scary movie. I have a love hate relationship with happy endings. But I’d also watch either one without complaints
8. any special talents?
Hmm I can crack my neck like the cool dudes do in movies. Idk if that counts as a special talent or not tho
9. where were you born?
I was born in Illinois, USA (nowhere near Chicago, though I’ve been there billions of times)
10. what are your hobbies?
I love interacting with the fandoms I’m a part of. Music, video games, and writing (the basic ones) I also love training dogs (I’m an animal lover)
11. do you have any pets?
I do!! (Bad question to ask cuz I’ll never shut up now) Her name is Stella and she’s a golden retriever! She is almost 4 years old (no way already??? She’s gotta stop growing up 😢) She is the sweetest baby ever and I gave her three middle names ( Patrick George Kevin) and can’t remember why I picked those specific middle names. Everybody loves Stella. And I will send you SO many photos, all you gotta do is ask (I even made an edit of her 💀) Sorry. Proud mom moment 😭
12. what sports do you play/have you played?
I don’t play any currently but my job requires me to be physically fit, so I work out regularly. I used to play soccer (football), basketball, run track, and competitively swim. I ride horseback occasionally (dunno if that counts or not)
13. how tall are you?
I am 165cm/5’5”
14. favorite subject in school?
Psychology. Coolest subject ever. It’s so interesting to learn about the human brain and how we ‘work’
15. dream job?
I’ve always wanted to go to space but I don’t think I’m smart enough to be an astronaut 🥲 I also recently started to consider starting a dog training/caretaking business at my family’s farm back in the States. But that would be a hell of a goal to work towards and I’m stuck at my current job for quite a few years unfortunately
Tagging (definitely not something y’all have to do if you don’t want to): @cove15 @fangirl-over-every-fandom @natblidaclexa

El Hotel De Los Secretos Ep. 12 Reaction
We now return to Julio spewing some absolutely vile but true shit about the Alarcón family at the only living member who isn’t acting freaking awful toward him. Luckily he has Andrés holding him back. Honestly neither of those boys should be going anywhere without the other, inevitably they do stupid shit or have bad things happen to them when separated, case and point? This!
Losing my mind that no matter how prickly and destructive Julio gets Andrés refuses to choose anything other than kindness, than to heal him, than to persist. “Let’s patch the wounds on your body because the wounds on your soul…” I’m gonna lose it!! Julio is throwing an absolute tantrum and all that’s doing is letting Andrés see how badly Julio needs help I can’t DO this 😭😭😭
That being said at least Andrés has the good sense to step away. Seriously tho “I bet you’re glad [Isabel and I] are more than 40 centimeters apart now!” As he pulls himself apart from Andrés is such an UGH. It could be interpreted so many goddamn ways hnnn the queer lense is strong with this one! AGH the gay it hurts!! “Let’s just go to our room, please.” Before he finally gives up and let’s Julio burn himself out? OWW! HELLO??? Is anybody else reading into this?! 👀🔥🔥🔥😫😵‍💫🏳️‍🌈
No… NO! NO!! That’s not real?!?!! That’s some actual fan fiction bullshit! What happened Andrés?? Couldn’t bear another night staring at Julio’s empty bed even though you know he’s at least physically safe and not dead in a ditch somewhere? So you went back to the kitchen, calling him an idiot and HEA in his mostly unconscious state feebly attempts to help you CARRY him back to y’all’s dorm?! Is this REAL??? Oh my god oh my GOD WHAT?! We’re just gonna cross fade to the morning somewhere else after that?! HELLO???
Ah we are back to Chef Lupe struggling to be a good single dad and trying to tell Jacinto trying to explain to his son love isn’t only suffering. Like the teen he is blames Lupe for his mom being gone (guessing she didn’t die) but Lupe still thinks highly of her so like, who knows what the deal is with Lupe’s wife??? Man, it’s in the name of the show but damn EVERYBODY has got secrets around here.
Isabel hiding from Diego in Matilde’s room as she SHOULD. Matilde is all like “you like him don’t you” and she looks her dead in the eyes and tells her “We Are Just Friends” and honestly? Good for her (even if there’s some denial there)!! Definitely not gonna lose it over the fact that Matilde says “I hope you’re right for your sake, whoever gets involved with that waiter will need an endless amount of love to face such rage” as if Andrés didn’t just ‘face such rage’ then carry Julio to bed TWO SCENES AGO! It’s really not just the onscreen chemistry that’s making this shit feel gay, it’s the frickin narrative! I love it!! 😍
“Good morning” Julio says like a kicked puppy “there’s nothing good about it, I couldn’t sleep last night because of you!” OKAY we’re just gonna leave this here. Andrés it’s okay to say “I love you I was worried about you” DAMNIT why are they like this?! I’m gonna eat my teeth about these two idiots, istg this has been THE shippiest episode since episode since they were both walking on air about being reunited in ep.8 fr fr
Oh boy, Mercedes and Felipe are finally getting in trouble with their parents about their little escapades. Now it seems that Elisa (Alfredo’s mother) is missing?? Belén is already using her new position to get a room to herself back, I assume she was sharing with Victoria up until just now after Elisa got here.
Okay not to be Like That but I KNEW IT! I knew Andrés’s whole thing had very to actually do with Belén and mostly to do with really, REALLY wanting to be a dad and not letting that baby (or Belén) to go through the same trauma he and his mother did. He’s also apparently been told his dad was a soldier and died in the war and god this kid has such a complicated relationship with masculinity.
It’s also kinda sad really because Andrés isn’t actively being like, directly sexist, but also it’s 1908. Honey, there’s more to a relationship than being physically attracted to your wife/fiancé and her being the mother of your kid. Now granted Belén isn’t really letting it be anything other than that (because she doesn’t love him either) and that’s such a ‘young kid whose never been in a relationship in their life’ mistake. You have relationships with people of both genders that are closer to what you’re looking for baby she ain’t it! This ain’t gonna fix your daddy issues!! Bitches be out here playing house…
Oh okay LUPE was eavesdropping so now I’m starting to think maybe, is he??? Does he have a thing for Ángela cuz, uhhhhhhh 👀 the way he shoos away Benjamin all protectively that was, hmmm 🤔
Elisa wants to take Sofia to an obstetrician ohhhhh BOY 😬 now Teresa and Doctor Lazaro Vicario (what a cool name, up there with Serapio Ayala) are conspiring to make sure Sofía is not removed from the Hotel at all. Teresa has offered to “keep him company” very flirtatiously among the other things she’s offering him. Listen I hate both of these people but also Evil Couples are inherently sexy and I’d totally be here for that if they’re implying what I think they are 👀
Okay okay okay so Ayala is informing Dagoberto that Julio’s tattoo is from a high security prison reserved for violent offenders who are considered enemies of the state?! Julio is a convict??? Okay okay okay LORE 🌙 (also Werewolf!Julio is so real in my brain now lmfao).
In this show we don’t say I love you we say “I don’t mind if you get me in trouble” apparently. Andrés do you understand how fully and totally Insane you and Julio are about each other I mean, like, seriously?! Y’all have known each other for less than a month and You Are Like This? Hello?? Ffs this bitches gay, good for them good for them.
Every time part of me goes “well maybe somehow and some point maybe Belén has just a tiny lil’ smidge of genuine care for Andrés in her own deeply fucked up way” but then she goes and calls Andrés a fool to Diego while flirting and making out with him as he puts her raise on the record books and then I go “Nevermind I Am Going To Fucking Kill Her 😀” my loathing for Señorita Belén Aguará García knows no fucking bounds for reasons that are much tmi but it’s FINE.
Nooooo now that’s just fucked, Melinda is kicking the shot out of poor pregnant Violeta, Jacinto saves the day thank god. I hope she didn’t kill the baby because I mean, that’s fucking awful obviously. Violeta baby I hope whatever happens you end up somewhere better than here cuz this shot is ROCK. BOTTOM. You know what, maybe I take back what I said, Jacinto’s got a good head on his shoulders, probably
Wow Victoria (Elisa’s pastel pink guard dog) will really just flirt with ANYONE huh? First Pascual, then the new desk guy, and now Natalia! I wonder what Elisa meant by “do what we agreed?” That was ominous as hell. Natalia is honestly terrible with secrets (like Andrés) and just let slip Ángela was there when Sofia fell, hopefully this doesn’t come back to bite the poor dear!
Wow! Doctor Vicario may be aligned with Teresa (which makes him fucking shady and maybe even evil in my book) but he’s surprisingly not sexist for the times! I mean he’s STILL sexist but like, comparatively (kinda like Andrés y’know)? He even calls Isabel his colleague. Although I do have to wonder if he’s doing that specifically to maneuver Isabel into trusting him so that she gives him the benefit of the doubt when he inevitably dies shady shit for Teresa later? 🤔
Yet another interlude of Felipe and Mercedes being insane and horny for each other, this time with window climbing like it’s a teen movie from the 80s! Back to Ayala getting the Lore on Julio! Ohhh okay, so he’s one of the ringleaders of the Cananea riots (looking THAT up later). He’s not only a convict but an escaped one! Ayala pls don’t go ACAB on me (I have a feeling he won’t, he’s a smart guy, not just smart but wise, and the wise hate the rich because THAT is good sense).
Jacinto is having Dr. Vicario save Violeta! Vicario is helping her without question. Hey maybe I misjudged Vicario too, if nothing else he’s willing to lie for patients but he seems to want to help people idk idk he’s interesting, there’s a lot of conflicting facts about him laced together and I am Intrigued by this cagey but nice doctor 👀
So the file on Julio Olmedo says that he wasn’t a political agitator but killed an American Ranger who was trying to control the riot he was part of! That he died before he came to the prison did Julio fake his death?? I hope that doesn’t mean he lied to Andrés about his worried mom (probably not). But also… WHAT?!
Oh right, Julio got picked to serve Diego and Isabel’s little surprise romantic dinner… AWKWARD. 😂😬 ooooof.

hungry eyes- Florence Pugh x Reader (Part 2)
summary: feelings grow and grow…
wc: 1,361
warnings: none
a/n: here’s part 2, y’all know how it goes😂 if you want a part 3 lmk and happy reading 🦋
p.s: let’s talk about how PERFECT she looks in that picture 😭😭😭
part 1
Tumblr media
Your leg bounced up and down as you sat outside of the hotel restaurant. The afternoon was quiet and the breeze was refreshing. You were wearing a sundress with your swimsuit underneath and some sandals with your hair up in a messy bun. The waiter had already taken your drink and appetizer order as you continued to wait for the other person.
After a few minutes, the glass of white wine was placed before and you down half of it out of anxiety. Your hands were getting sweaty, thinking of what you were going to say. ‘What if she doesn’t feel the same way?’ You thought as you looked around once again to finally see her walking towards you.
Florence was wearing some ripped shorts with a white button up and you could slightly see the bikini through the shirt. Her hair was messy due to the wind, she had sandals and her sunglasses covered her eyes. You were in awe. Yeah, the outfit was simple but that’s what you loved about it.
“Hey, love. Sorry, I’m late. My mom wouldn’t stop talking about this old lady she met by the pool.” She chuckled, placing her purse down on the table as she sat down across from you.
“Oh it’s okay. No worries.” You chuckled, tucking a piece of hair behind your ear. Before she could say anything else, the waiter came with the mozzarella sticks and another glass of wine. He placed the glass in front of Flo and winked at her before walking back into the restaurant. That made your stomach churn as jealousy built up in your chest.
“Someone seems to like you.” You smiled and drank some wine.
“Oh no. I don’t care. I have my eyes set on someone anyway.” Florence smiled, putting her sunglasses on her head.
“Oh? And who’s the lucky guy?” You asked, leaning back on the chair.
“It’s a girl actually.”
“Oh… that’s interesting. I- um.. I didn’t know you were…”
“I’m bi. It’s fine, it’s no secret, just not entirely public yet.” She shrugged with a smile.
“I understand.” You nodded.
“Are you ready to order ma’am?” The waiter questioned with his notepad in hand, looking at the both of you.
“Yes, I’ll have the spaghetti cacio e pepe and another glass of wine.” You smiled before looking at Florence.
“I’ll take the bolognese ragú.” She said and looked up from the menu with a smile before closing it and handing it to the waiter. He nodded, grabbing the menu before walking away into the restaurant.
“I saw him drool a little.” You muttered making Florence laugh as she threw her head back.
“It dripped all over the menu.” She laughed, causing you to chuckle before you lifted the glass up to your lips.
You both spent the rest of the dinner talking about yourselves and your family. You also talk about your hometown and some crazy things you did as children. Florence couldn't help but like you even more every second she spent staring at you, speaking and laughing. She noticed how when you smiled there were a few wrinkles next to your eyes. The way you bit your lip every time after making eye contact. That made Florence look at your lips often. They seemed soft and velvet-like, she felt the need to kiss you.
“Are you ready to go back?” You asked, breaking Florence out of her trance.
“Um, yeah, yes. Of course, let’s go.” She said hurriedly before standing up as she threw a few bills on the table. Florence began to walk away, leaving you behind making you confused.
“Wait! Flo, what’s going on?!” You shouted, running after her until she stopped to catch a breath.
“Sorry, I just.. I had to get out of there. I apologize.” She said, running her hand through her short hair.
“It's alright, I was just worried. You left in such a hurry.” Your brows were knitted together in confusion as she chuckled nervously.
“I’m fine, I promise.” Florence replied with a small smile, looking into your eyes. You muttered an ‘okay’ before walking down the road towards the hotel with her trailing next to you.
You didn’t talk for the rest of the way, feeling scared that you would offend her. Or scared to hit a touchy subject. Florence walked in front of you as you stepped into the elevator. She pressed the floor button which, luckily for the both of you, it was the same floor.
“I’m really sorry if I made you worry. I just… noticed something and I-I had to get away from that thought.” Florence explained as the elevator went up.
“Do you wanna… I don’t know, talk about it?” You asked, turning your head to look at her.
“Maybe some other day… when I’m a bit more calm.”
“Alright.”
The elevator dinged and you both walked out, saying your goodbyes as you turned to leave in opposite directions. As you walked away she turned to look at you and you did the same a few seconds later, needing to look at her.
The next morning, you and your friends walked down to the breakfast buffet. They were asking questions about the day before and of course, you were honest. You shared your confusion with the girls which caused you to overthink the whole thing. After walking around, you all sat back at the table with your plates filled up and your coffees.
“She said her eyes were set on a girl, that can totally be you.” Gabi said, grabbing her cutlery.
“I’m sure she knows other women.” You chuckled and sipped from your coffee.
“She may know other women, but don’t forget that you guys met 'cause she couldn't take her eyes off of you.” Kiara pointed out as she buttered her pancakes.
“Maybe I had a… a booger or something.”
“Don’t be ridiculous.” Gabi chuckled.
You began to eat and talk about what you were going to do throughout the day. It consisted of walking around, drinking wine, eating pasta or pizza and lastly, the beach. You were laughing at a joke when you turned your head to see Florence walking in with her family. Her eyes found yours immediately making you both smile. She walked over to your table as her family walked towards the food. You stood up, meeting her half away.
“Hi.” She smiled.
“Hey, how are you feeling?” You said fidgeting with your fingers.
“I’m feeling much better, thank you. Hey, girls.” Florence smiled, waving at your friends who were behind you. They waved back and continued eating as she returned her eyes back to you.
“Are you gonna stick around today?” You asked, putting your hands in the back pocket of your shorts.
“I think so. We have nothing planned today.”
“Well, the girls and I are gonna walk around….take some pictures, just- in case you want to join.” You smiled nervously. Flo chuckled and tucked pieces of hair behind her ear.
“I’d love to.”
“Great! That’s… great, um is there a number I can text you too?”
“Yes, here you go.” Flo smiled and reached behind her to take out her phone. She handed to you and you handed her yours, both of you putting your numbers in.
“Alright, I’ll text you later…see where you guys are.” Florence said, putting her phone back in her pocket.
“Of course, yeah. I’ll see you later, then.”
“See you later, beautiful.” She walked away, leaving you in shock. Your cheeks were red and hot as you walked back to the table where your friends noticed.
“What happened?” Gabi asked in worry.
“She um… sh-she called me beautiful.”
“Oh, she totally likes you.” Kiara smirked as you looked up at her. You smiled too, feeling the butterflies come alive in your stomach. No one has ever made you feel this giddy before, not even your first school crush.
“I really hope I don’t mess this up.” You muttered to yourself as you leaned back against the chair. Suddenly, feeling nervous and anxious, all at the same time. You just wanted her to like you as much as you liked her.

tw: //assault mention
lol @ your tags on the marcel and hope gifset. i think one of those posts you've seen may have been mine (at that point i'd watched like five eps of TO and one season of tvd and only went off of spoilers from fandom so yeah i def had an inaccurate perception) but i 100% agree, because srsly ric acts like he and an actual confederate/rapist (who also murdered his wife and assaulted the woman who gave birth to his children :p) aren't besties and that he can just throw it in hope's face what a terrible person her dead father who died in service of her happiness and incidentally left her an orphan was, when really it's about context??? lol.
and i mean the selective memory of the history textbooks is really cute because they fail to mention that the guy who it's named after owned slaves, but tbh yeah, it's fair enough to be like "klaus was a mass murderer and did terrible things over ten centuries" even if those kids didn't have to be assholes about it and make fun of a teenage girl's dead father's appalling actions. like they could show some tact lmao.
it probably wasn’t. on here i’ve seen more of the occasional, annoying alaric defense - a la “see? alaric’s immaturity towards hope is JUSTIFIED and he knows best because she IS a bad person deep down!” hope is stubborn and frustrating, sure, but there’s no excuse for him throwing her dead parents in her face more than once with extreme venom when he’s… a literal adult. and most of the takes on here seem to understand that nuance.
twitter on the other hand there’s been way too many instances of unserious confusion towards even the potential of klaus’s canon behavior being mentioned by ANYBODY. and what’s extra annoying is the arguments are never even about his sacrifice for hope, they literally only talk about the check. sure there can be some acknowledgement, but… let’s get serious. like for all y’all know some of these kids' families/ancestors were killed by that man like dorian's with stefan. 😭 i know we love our awful men in the tvdu fandom, but every single individual existing within it doesn’t have to.
but, yeah, on the other hand, if the school is full of salvabro stans, also awful mass murderers in their own right, well… lol.

Eagles: Crossroads 3x6
I am so nervous to see what’s in this episode.. what if Klara kicks Ludde off the team because of his injury? We know they have scenes together this season. What if she thinks he would cost her money or is a liability? 🤔
1. Felicia’s saved name for Jack in her phone… sis why don’t you block his number??? Same as when she went off on Ludde in s2 about him liking her pics, girl BLOCK HIM!
Tumblr media
2. Ludde just straight up said he’s quitting hockey… I didn’t expect it to end this way, clearly from my note above. I’m glad to see his friends being supportive and in a different light than they usually are. Aw this is sad lol
(i am loving adam’s family van btw)
3. Mats and Elias sitting there is a pretty picture of “fuck around and find out”. I’m so tired of Elias getting mrrked and not getting a good punch in.
The fight went viral? Do they have their own world star in Sweden? 😂
Elias knows that the police report is inked on Jack’s desk waiting to be sent in as they speak 💀 . Wait what if Klara kicks Elias off the team because she thinks he is anger and violence is a liability?? 🤔 Elias does have a slick mouth too huh?… And trust me boo, you don’t need to meet with the sponsor…
Tumblr media
4. Felicia is looking like a cutesy art student rn 🥺
Ludde, what the hell does Amie at your place have anything to do with “almost” punching out Jack?? Damn, and he asked that question with some tone in his voice… sir, imma need you to take that bass out real quick.
Tumblr media
Felicia with the common sense and correcting her man on what full body autonomy means!!! She decides who the hell she wants to tell about what’s going on with her body. This boy is coming at the wrong one and it is pissing me off.
5. Felicia… girl how are you so smart and your grades so gutter?? My sister…
Tumblr media
Ludde……… you know Felicia’s response was not about someone moving away for a year or so. You really think THIS is the way to get Felicia’s opinion on London? I can’t stand him right now. You turning something into what it isn’t, letting the whole class know y’all got marital issues... 
6. Man that headstone is huge as hell…. Wait? y’all not wearing masks in 2020? Lmaooo, jk. The pandemic does not exist in this timeline.
7. Lmao at the writers giving Ludde and Felicia their own ship name 😭😭 Luddicia.
8. Well at least we know who calms Elias down from his temper tantrums 😌 That smile ain’t going away y’all.
I’m sorry but Elias’s black eye (i guess since it’s not browning yet it’s kind of like he has pink eye?) is like his wrist in s1, nasty and needs to be covered.
Tumblr media
I say this with love (<3) but, can we get this boy an eyepatch??
These two are so cute and it’s all shy and new. Elias said hearing about Amie’s issues are a good reason to skip school 🥺🥺
9. Ludde needs to chase that girl a few more steps. This fool has been projecting since they met up this morning and publicly trying to embarrass her. Felicia said, “your ass ain’t said one peep in class since frosh enrollment but today you just can’t seem to shut the hell up!!!”
Tumblr media
I know Ludde is not blaming Felicia when HE CAME AT HER FIRST!!! 
10. Lord jesus, this is not the fight we need to have in front of everyone 🤦🏾‍♀️ The door to outside is literally right next to yall.
Felicia is asking Amie if… and Amie didn’t say no… oh gosh. She did not deny!!
See, I don’t like that this feels like a gang up. Felicia just saw all the men in her life go at it with her hostile ex that has hurt her. She IS the victim… and if these dudes were really trying to fight Jack because they cared about getting back at the dude who hurt her then they would be checking on her and seeing how she’s doing ect. not projecting, trying to embarrass her in class and telling her to “get a grip”. And I really wish Amie would be on her side with this tbh.
11. Amie and Elias are really going on a stroll in the park 🥺 This is so freaking cute, i am overwhelmed with the FEELS rn. Man, if they run in to Klara on their stroll, I’m going to be so pissed. 😂
Amie is taking Elias to her spot, now it’s their spot!!!!
Tumblr media
*me whisper singing rn* “there you see her, sitting there across the way, she don’t got a lot to say but there’s something about her. and you don’t know why but you’re dying to try. you want to kiss the girl”
GTFO!!!! GET OUT RIGHT NOW!! Elias did not just look Amie up and down when she said “It just has something” I AM DONE!! WE ARE CLOSED!!! NO MORE!! GOODBYE, IM GOING TO JUMP IN THE OCEAN NOW!
Tumblr media
damn he is really staring at her deep, this feels like a real private moment🥴🥴 bro is he going to kiss her??? lmfao? is he literally about to kiss her right now???? he’s lookin at them lips, it sure feels like it. This boy is killing it with the body language though. I am allll into THAT!
Guys he is on probation and he is willing to risk it and be late to practice to listen to what Amie has to say 🥺 Omg Amie gave ole boy a 25 degree body turn.. this was amazing
12. Here is Klara… being the person, we knew she would be. I KNEW HER ASS WAS GONNA LET THAT TEAM SINK!! She is so spiteful and petty as all get out 🤦🏾‍♀️. There are guys with dreams of making it bigger, there are the team coaches who would loose their jobs???
Tumblr media
13. A phone call sir?? He really can’t get enough huh? I would say, Elias thinking he could go with Amie to her mom for moral support would mean he is out of his EVERLOVING mind IF he knew about their parents history. Miss mamas is probably making some kroon voodoo dolls as they speak! 
Amie knew when big boy hit her with that “I like listening to you” oh my gosh 😂😂…
did he really just hang up?? I guess he don’t like hearing her talk that much then damn??! 💀
14. Elias just found out about Klara being their sponsor, AHAHAHA! Hold up sis?? What happen to “screw all of y’all! i’m leaving with my inheritance! i hope you brokies all burn in hell!!” at the funeral with your little mic drop moment?? didn’t she say that? i could’ve sworn she said something like that. but seriously, the way she cancelled the eagles’ existence in that meeting earlier, this whole nice routine with Elias has me confused…
15. What if when Michael found out Petra was still in love with Mats, Michael left? Felt like he couldn’t compete or whatever? If I was Petra, I would be probably in the mood to whoop Michael’s ass right about now.  Amie is not letting Petra explain anything. She just knows her as being over protective so it “has to make sense”. But baby girl, how did he even get your phone number??? Let’s start there.
16. Alva with this acting sis goo head girl!! This break up is so laughable though 😭 Ludde is breaking up with Felicia like he done found some coke she hid behind their picture frame or something?? He can’t communicate for SHIT! I guess Felicia was suppose to be some kind of mind reader?? This is just ridiculous 🤦🏾‍♀️. 
17. Oh this arrogant prick. The jealously of this guy right now. I swear if they don’t let Elias put actual hands on him, there will be a problem. This has to happen especially to someone deserving. Elias is walking around with pink eye and this dude is looking like this? Jack is the roach that gave birth to a jack roach army that name brand raid just can’t get rid of. i am tired of seeing him
But let’s be serious about what this asswipe is about to do. He is about to let the flood gates open. And this isn’t just about Felicia or Elias, the whole family. So we could possibly find out about Mats and Jack’s dad. Wild theory, the woman Felicia saw her dad with could possibly be Jack’s mother? The woman was said to be Leila’s bff so idk. But good grief i’m nervous over here.
