Do you perchance have any headcanons for Luis? No one writes for him, and as much as I love Leon, I love my sassy ladies man Luis even more 😭❤️
i LOVE you for requesting this. Hell yes, I love my sassy man so so much.
Crushing on Luis Sera headcannons
☆*:.。.
★ First things first, let’s elaborate on the type of man he is. He’s a romantic one, that’s for sure. He loves flirty one-liners and sappy quotes.
★ Being flirty and a self-proclaimed “ladies’ man” doesn’t mean he won’t be loyal, he is MORE than loyal if that’s possible. He’s the definition of a true gentleman.
★ Luis is well-experienced, he’s been in a few relationships, but most of them ended badly. Mainly because of his involvement with Umbrella and lack of quality time. His job consumed his life.
★ That being said:
★ You met when you got assigned to his team, both of you were researching the same parasite, so you had to transfer to his laboratory.
★ Anyway, as soon as he saw you, he internally fell to his knees.
★ He wasn’t going to tell you that, though. #proudman
★ Luis had never met someone who matched his energy so well, who ACTUALLY flirted back and cracked jokes at inappropriate times. He was so fond of you.
★ “So, you come here often?” He asked with a dumb smirk.
★ “Oh yeah, all the time. I just LOVE operating on disgusting parasites. Y’know what? I think I was born to do this. Right here, at your laboratory. It’s heaven.”
★ “Can’t help it, cariño. I’m one good lookin’ angel. So are you though, so are you.”
★ He loved your dry humor and your ability to sound so deadpan while cracking the most hilarious jokes.
★ You loved spending time with him, especially when you weren’t researching plagues and stuff you thought was gross. He was actually fascinating.
★ You were intrigued at first, but then you were full-on crushing on him.
★ You weren’t going to tell him that, though.
★ But yes, the more you got to know him, the closer you wanted to be. You started taking note of his likes and dislikes.
★ He liked smoking. Loved, even. And being the clingiest man you had ever met.
★ He disliked getting told to shut up and getting called “doctor”. He wasn’t a doctor, but a biologist. Yet, you liked annoying him with that title.
★ The moment he realized he was in love was when both of you went on a coffee break, and you pulled out a cigarette. It surprised him, he swore you didn’t smoke.
★ “Ay, you smoke too?”
★ “Nah, bought them just for you, Dr. Sera.”
★ The fact that you carried cigarettes for him (because he always managed to forget or lose his) almost sent him into oblivion. He felt like he was going to cry his heart out and fall to his knees once again.
★ Since you gave him cigarettes (all the time) he wanted to do something for you too, and you just happened to love books. So, he was committed to finding out what your favorite book was.
★ It was Don Quixote.
★ Oh god, was it life-changing for him. He had read the book before, being one of his favorites since it reminded him of his childhood. He decided to re-read it just for you. He wanted to be able to talk about all sorts of stuff, especially stuff you liked.
★ But maybe it got a little out of hand because he would NOT stop referencing the book every chance he got. You found it rather funny. And they say romance is dead.
★ Luis did numerous things to get your attention, he was a master at multitasking. He had you on his mind even when he was busy working with plagas. Which wasn’t very pleasant actually.
★ The closer you both became, the flirtier you both got. You started calling him handsome, and he called you “Mi amor”
★ It was a mutual inside joke at this point, but both of you wanted it to be very much real and not just some jest.
★ One time, you called him handsome too many times in a day. He couldn’t stop smiling.
★ “Keep calling me handsome, and I’ll start believing you got a little crush on me.” He said.
★ “Yeah, well, keep calling me mi amor and I might just kiss you.” You replied.
★ That caught him off guard but it shut him up, yet he couldn’t stop thinking about it, maybe if he thought about it long enough you’d read his mind and kiss him. After all, Luis was head over heels for you, as you were for him.
★ As your research came to an end, Luis knew he was losing time. He needed to ask you out or at least tell you how he felt, but he was never really the best at confessing his feelings, even in past relationships. He’d never felt this way about someone, you were so different, it had to be different with you. He desperately needed to be with you.
★ “Guess this is where we part ways, handsome.” You told him when you finished packing your stuff, you were being transferred back to your laboratory soon.
★ “Don’t go, corazón. Let’s uh, let’s elope.” He joked, earning a sweet laugh from you. He would sure miss your laugh. “We make a good team.”
★ Everything he said made your heart skip a beat. You wished you could’ve stayed longer, but your boss was too demanding. Not only that, but Luis didn’t want you to go. He felt so happy when you were around, and he wished he had met you earlier.
★ But in the end, he swallowed his pride and asked you out right there. Now or never was his motto, he needed to be true to himself for once. “Know what cariño? I’ve been thinking and maybe we should-”
★ “Yes cariño, I’ll go on a date with you. But first I need to turn this in. See you later, guapo.” He was flabbergasted, took him a few minutes to process what had just happened. It was safe to say he left his laboratory with the biggest smile ever and more swooned than he already was.

She wears short skirts, I wear tee shirts | Robin Buckley x Reader
Summary: Robin has a crush on a cheerleader 
Pairing: Robin Buckley x Reader
Word count: 2.3k
A/N: I wrote this in Robin’s pov without realizing...oops. Also, this has been in my drafts since the day I binged season 4 part 1. Sorry it took so long to post/finish
Tumblr media
-
Robin Buckley, the girl who liked to be out of the box, had fallen for a high school cliché with lip gloss, a bouncy ponytail and a mini skirt. A fucking cheerleader.
When she told Steve about her little crush on you, he thought it was a joke and laughed…which earned him a smack on the shoulder. Robin was serious. She really did have a crush on you, and it was the worst thing that could happen to her. Actually, getting outed would take the cherry, but her crush on you was next in line.
You weren't a bad person - you were very sweet actually -, but to Robin's eyes, there was no possibility that you could reciprocate her feelings and that’s why it was so terrible. You were at the top of the pyramid, and she was playing trumpet in the school’s band.
While driving to school on Friday morning, Steve was ranting about girls, like always, and Robin was trying to apply mascara without stabbing herself in the eye. A blind person can play the trumpet, but it’s better with two functioning eyes.
‘’Robin! Are you listening?’’ Steve asked, taking his eyes off the road.
‘’Yes. Yes, I am. I-’’
It was false. She was only half listening, concentrated on coating her bottom lashes with mascara.
‘’What did I say?’’
‘’You said something about sex with…Linda.’’
‘’No!’’ Once again, Steve took his eyes off the road. ‘’I’m talking about Heidi.’’
Heidi or Linda, Robin could never remember who was who other than one of them was a blonde and the other a brunette. Which was which? That she did not know the answer.
‘’Cut me some slack, please. Your love life is a labyrinth complexity and it’s seven in the morning and I have to do this stupid pep rally and I woke up looking like a total corpse.’’
‘’You’re worried about a basketball pep rally?’’ Steve raised an eyebrow. ‘’You expect me to believe that?’’
‘’Yeah.’’
Steve scoffed. He wasn’t always the brightest crayon of the box and sometimes made questionable decisions, but he wasn’t that stupid. The basketball pep rally was not why Robin was so stressed and panicked over. It was something else - someone else.
‘’No. We both know what this is about, okay? I’m not buying that bullshit. This is about Y/N.’’
A little smirk curled at the corner of Steve’s lips, seeing the defense mode kick on Robin’s face at the mention of you. Bullseye.
‘’Absolutely not.’’
‘’Yes it is, and I think that you should stop pretending to be someone else when you’re around her. You just gotta be yourself.’’
Robin reached into her bag for her lip balm and applied some with her finger. ‘’Are you really quoting my own advices?’’
‘’They worked. Maybe you should listen to yourself more. Look at me, I listened to you and now, boom, I’m back in business.’’
‘’It’s not the same thing,’’ Robin argued.
In a way, it was the same, but in another, it was very different.
She continued. ‘’You ask a girl and she says no, no big deal. Nothing happens. Maybe your ego is a little bruised but I ask out the wrong girl, bam, I'm a town pariah.’’
Although Steve was not in Robin’s shoes sexuality wise, he understood her point of view. Being gay - lesbian, in Robin’s case - was not persued well by the majority of people. It was seen as disgusting and wrong.
‘’Yeah, I buy that, except Y/N is definitely not the wrong girl.’’
‘’She’s a cheerleader. She couldn’t be straighter.’’
‘’She comes to Family Video every Saturday - even when it rains - and only goes to you to check her out. Oh, and remember two weeks ago when I switched shifts with you so I could go on a date with Heidi? Y/N came to rent a movie and asked if you were around while I checked her out. You should’ve seen the disappointment on her face when I told her you weren’t working. She likes you.’’
‘’You’re full of shit.’’
*
In the school’s gymnasium, the band's music echoed while the cheerleading team did their choreography, twirling, spinning, jumping and dancing with their pom-poms. 
Standing in line with the band in the stands, Robin tried balancing her attention between playing her trumpet and watching from afar the bright smile on your face and the Tigers green eye shadow on your eyes. 
The band stopped as the choreography came to an end, and everyone clapped and cheered. 
Then, the cheerleaders vacated the spot and sat by the stands as the headmaster called in the Tigers. Another round of cheers and clapping echoed as the paper was ripped and in came the team, with Jason at the front.
*
During fourth period, Robin’s eyes wandered to you while Mr. Scotts talked about protons and electrons. She should probably be paying attention to the lesson, all this information will likely be asked in the next test, but you were sitting two rows before her and your glossy lips and smooth-soft looking skin were much more interesting. Sorry, Mr. Scotts.
A quiet sigh left Robin's lips. She wished she wasn’t such a hopeless disaster and had the courage to go up to you and talk to you. So far, your exchanges have been limited to ‘did you find everything you wanted?’ and ‘that will be 3.50$’.
It was pathetic.
The bell rang, forcing Robin to break her staring.
Mr. Scotts cut the lesson and everyone gathered their things and left.
After shoving everything in her backpack, Robin was about to leave the classroom when she spotted a white knit cardigan with Tigers green edges on the back-rest of a chair. Your chair. She took the cardigan, a little smile curling at the corner of her lips as she read your embroidered name on the right side, and went after you in the hallway. This was the perfect excuse to talk to you.
She could’ve called your name and you would’ve turned around. It would’ve been easy and not weird, but Robin wasn’t thinking and ended up following you to the bathroom.
‘’Y/N!’’ she called, walking in the girls’ bathroom.
You turned around, pulling your eyebrows together. ‘’Robin? Where you...following me?’’
‘’Yes! No!‘’ she quickly corrected, realizing how it must've sounded. ‘’I mean, yes, but not in a creepy way. Eh...you left your cardigan in class and I saw it on your chair so I took it and followed you to give it back.’’
Your eyes trailed down to the cardigan in Robin’s hand.
You thanked her with a kind smile. ‘’That’s very nice of you. Most people would’ve just left it there.’’
‘’Well, I'm not most people, and I didn't want you to get cold.‘’
Robin wanted to sap herself for saying something so dumb.
You took the cardigan from her, your fingers brushing for a few seconds during the exchange, sending butterflies to Robin's stomach. ‘’Thanks.’’
*
The next day at Family Video, Steve had to listen to Robin’s rant about her short exchange with you while they stocked the shelves with the returned tapes. Well, Steve was stocking the shelves. Robin had been following him around with the same two movies in her hand for the past ten minutes, completely absorbed in her story.
‘’-forgot her cardigan and our fingers touched and-’’
The bell above the door ding-ed and Robin paused her story. She turned her head at the new customer and her throat went dry, seeing you walking in in a mini skirt and a blouse with a funky print.
‘’Hi! Welcome to Family Videos,’’ Steve greeted, his voice echoing through the store and pulling Robin from her trance. ‘’You looking for a movie in particular?’’
He wasn’t always this nice with every customer - unless he was flirting -, but he was trying to help his friend get the girl she was crushing on.
‘’Eh, no. Not really,’’ you replied, brushing him off and walking away to the comedy aisle.
Steve turned his head back to Robin. ''Go talk to her,'' he mouthed over the shelf, his back turned to you.
She shook her head, panic rushing to her eyes. ‘’I can’t.’’
One thing about Robin was that she had no filter and talked a lot when under stress or was nervous. Most people found it pretty annoying and she didn’t want to annoy you by turning into an unstoppable tornado of word vomit.
‘’Just go ask her if she needs any help finding a movie.’’
‘’Why? She already said she didn’t know what she was looking for.’’
‘’Because I asked her. She didn’t want my help,’’ Steve explained.
His theory was ridiculous and Robin wanted to prove to him that he was wrong so she walked up to you. ‘’Do you need any help finding a movie?’’
Your eyes flickered to Robin’s and, much to her surprise, you accepted her help. ‘’Do you have a copy of Ferris Bueller's day off?’’ you asked. ‘’I believe it was released this week, but I can’t seem to find it.’’
Without needing to check in the computer, Robin knew that there was one copy left in the store. And she knew exactly where it was.
‘’We do. It’s at the register though. I was saving it for myself, but I’ll let you have it just because it’s you.’’
She wanted you to see her gesture as her being nice to you - and perhaps a little flirty -, because it really was that. You didn’t need to know that it was actually store policy to give the customers the movies you saved if they asked for them.
‘’Oh, thank you, but you don’t have to do that. I can pick another movie-’’
‘’It’s fine.’’ Robin tried not to look too disappointed. ‘’I’ll watch it another day.’’
You and Robin went to the front of the store to retrieve the movie and check you out. ‘’I feel bad for taking your movie. Do you…would you want to watch it with me?’’
‘’With you? As in, at your house?’’ Robin asked, wanting to make sure she got your offer right.
You nodded, a glint in your eyes. ‘’Yeah. I don't have anyone else to watch it with. My friends are more of the Footloose and Pretty in Pink type.’’
Just as Robin was about to scan the movie into the computer, there was a loud bang outside, which spooked you both. Thunder. Then, it began pouring heavily.
‘‘What the hell? It was sunny five minutes ago,’‘ you said.
‘‘It’s Hawkins. Unexpected downpours happen all the time,’’ Robin explained, the town in itself being good enough of an explanation.
They’re usually followed by not so pleasing supernatural surprises, but she didn’t need to add that.
Robin scanned the VHS and you paid your weekly 3.50$. Then, she added, ‘‘You can stay here, you know. Until the rain calms down. You’re gonna get soaked within five seconds if you go out in that rain.’‘
Once again, Robin was just being nice by offering you shelter, but she also didn’t want you to go yet.
‘’What if the rain doesn't stop? Sometimes, it goes on for hours.’’ Your eyes flickered to Robin’s blue ones and held her gaze.
Another clap of thunder echoed, making the lights flicker.
‘‘Looks like we might lose power,’‘ Steve said, louder than necessary. ‘‘I’m gonna go in the backroom and fetch some flashlights, in case the power go out.’‘
‘‘Don’t forget to check if there’s batteries in them!’‘ Robin called out after him.
She knew it was an excuse to give you some alone time with her crush and she was grateful for the help.
Shortly after Steve disappeared, the power went out, plunging the store in the dark. Across the street, you could see that there was power so this must be Steve's doing. Robin was praying you wouldn't notice.
‘’I hate when the power goes out,’’ you said, beginning to feel anxious in the dark.
‘’You can hold my hand if you want, I won’t tell,’’ Robin boldly blurted, the absence of light giving her a boost of confidence. She reached across the counter and you took her hand, tangling your fingers together as butterflies bubbled in Robin’s stomach because she was holding your hand.
A loud clap of thunder hit and you squeezed Robin’s hand. ‘’Sorry. I got a little spooked,’’ you explained with a nervous giggle.
‘’It’s okay.’’
Robin shifted on his feet, trying to fill the silence. What do you do when you’re in the dark with your crush? You ramble facts about thunderstorms.
‘‘Did you know that for every five seconds between the lightning flash and the clap of thunder, the thunderstorm that produced the lightning is one mile away? If the time is decreasing, the storm is moving toward you. If it is increasing, the storm is moving farther away.’’
You shook your head. ‘‘I did not know that.’‘
‘‘My father taught me this when I was little. I used to be scared of thunder so he made it a game for me. We’d sit on the porch and count the seconds together.’‘
‘’That’s sweet. My father taught me how to drive. I dented the car when backing in our driveway and ruined my mother’s flowers. He never let me sit in the driver seat again. I think it's best for everyone's safety.’’
Robin laughed at your anecdote. ‘’Don’t worry. I can’t drive either. I haven’t tried, but it took me six months longer to learn to walk as a baby and I still can't run right, so I’d rather not find out how I drive.’’
Suddenly, the power returned, lighting the store with its bright neon lights. You let go of Robin's hand, making the latter pout at the loss.
‘‘See you later, Robin.’‘ You picked the VHS from the counter and, just before pushing the door open, you paused. ‘‘We still have a movie to watch, remember?’‘

la douleur exquise
Pairing: Miguel O'Hara x GN!Spider!Reader Word Count: 2.6k Warnings: canon-typical violence, fluff, whump, slight body horror
Tumblr media
It isn’t easy being one of Miguel’s best agents. He’s a hard man to impress and even harder to get close to, but somehow you’ve managed to do both.
You take pride in your friendship with Miguel; it’s not something easily accomplished and more often, a feat people are too afraid to try for. You get it, he can be intimidating, but you’ve gotten a glimpse beneath that rough exterior. He isn’t some terrifying monster waiting to attack at any given moment.
If he was a monster, he wouldn’t take time out of his day to make sure you eat three meals a day.
He wouldn’t ask for your advice on handling anomalies, much less listen as intently as he does.
He wouldn’t let you literally hang around his office and annoy him to no end during your downtime.
You know Miguel’s a good man. Is he a little too stern with the others? Yes. Does he take his job too seriously sometimes? Also yes. But you couldn’t imagine you’d be any other way if you were in his position.
He’s a good boss and a good friend—quite possibly your best friend—someone you trust with your life, and you’re about ninety-eight percent sure he feels the same about you. At least, you hope so. It’s that, or you’ve suddenly become really bad at reading people.
“Widow, come in.”
Speak of the Devil.
“If it isn’t my favorite boss,” you smile, looking down at your watch just in time to see Miguel roll his eyes.
“I’m your only boss.”
“Still my favorite,” you laugh. “What’s up?”
“I need you to meet up with Jess. Lyla—”
“Oh, wait, let me guess! Lyla detected another anomaly, and you need your best spider-person to get the job?”
Miguel doesn’t even look at you, too busy with whatever’s on his monitors, as he lazily shrugs, “Yes, actually—”
“Wait, really?”
“—But he’s stuck on Earth-13122, so you’ll have to do.”
“I walked right into that one, didn’t I?” you sigh, smile still playing at your lips. You catch the quirk of his lips, the tight swallow as he fights down a laugh.
It’s a shame; he has such a nice smile.
“Jess will fill you in on the details,” Miguel continues, back to business as usual.
“No problem, boss.“ Giving a mock salute, Miguel disappears, and you’re left gazing longingly after his visage. A small sigh escapes you, heart aching at his absence.
So, maybe Miguel isn’t just your best friend. Perhaps you’d like him to be something more, but you’ve been holding on to that hope for years with no indication that his feelings for you run deeper than platonic. It hurts having to deal with that fond pinch of your heart every time you see him, but you’ve resigned to dealing with it.
“You done pining yet, or do you need another minute?”
You damn near jump out of your skin at Jess’s voice, whirling around to come face-to-face with her.
“Oh hey, Jess! I didn’t see you there.” You try to laugh it off, looking everywhere but the woman smirking at you.
“Sure,” she teases. “You were too busy making eyes at—“
“Miguel said something about an anomaly?” you cut her off quickly. She gives you one last look that says you’ll definitely be talking about this later before shifting into business mode.
“We got a report about an unusually strong anomaly,” Jess explains, tapping away on her watch. “Due to the conditions of the universe he’s stuck in, Miguel thought you’d be the best for the job.”
A swirl of inter-dimensional orange mixes with the lush tropics of your universe’s floating islands behind her.
“He…did?” you ask with a tilt of your head.
“His exact words were, and I quote, There’s no one better suited for the job. He asked me to come along to help you.”
“No, he didn’t,” you scoff. It isn’t unusual for you to be one of the first ones called to deal with anomalies, but it’s certainly not normal for you to take point.
“You can ask Lyla,” Jess shrugs as the portal blinks opens.
“Why? What’s up with this universe that I’m needed, specifically?”
Jess’s mouth quirks into a knowing grin, waving you over with one foot in the portal.
“You’ll see.”
Tumblr media
“I thought you said it was one anomaly!” you scream at Jess, tucking and rolling down another massive sand dune to dodge an incoming swing from the amalgamation of muscles, tendons, and cybernetics that make up the anomalous Lizard.
“There was!” Jess shouts back, kicking off the undead Electro, who looks a little too much like an oversized Frankenstein’s Monster for you to take him seriously.
“Obviously not!” you huff. The unforgiving sun bears down on the four of you, the golden light of this universe’s eternal sunset reflecting off the molten sand. The grains scratch at your suit, visible heat waves rolling over the endless desert.
You duck from another swing of The Cyber-Lizard’s tail, sliding across the sand as he gives chase. You can see the heated sand pulling the moisture from his skin every time he touches it, the coarse epidermis cracking and splitting open.
Miguel was right about one thing, you think. The burning sunset colors of your suit shift with the sands, your skin absorbing every heatwave that rolls by to energize you. There really was no one better suited for the job.
The next time Cyper-Lizard leaps for you, you turn and run, trying to get closer to Jess and the Zombie-Electro. She holds her own well enough—you’d expect nothing less—despite having to abandon her bike to the difficult terrain of this universe.
“Jess, get down!” you shout, sliding down a sand dune toward her. She crouches down, and you launch yourself off the dune, soaring over her.
Zombie-Electro takes the opportunity to attack, one arm extending with a horrendous groan. The jagged bolts of electricity keeping him hovering in the air spark and stretch up his stitched-together body, preparing to launch from his hand.
You beat him to the punch, shooting a web that blocks his hand as you collide with him mid-air. He groans and swats at you, but you’re too quick, attaching to webbing on his hand and crawling around the length of his body.
You’re a chaotic blur of sticky silk, oranges, and reds, webs shooting from every direction as you wrap Zombie-Electro into a massive cocoon, trailing webs around him and shooting off the sticky fibers to tether him to the sandy ground.
Using his head as a springboard, you launch off of him, landing gracefully next to Jess.
“Not bad,” she laughs, staring up at your makeshift monument to watch your webs solidify.
“All in a day’s—“
“Move!”
The blunt force hits you first, the searing pain of heated metal sinking in a second later as Cyber-Lizard’s tail slams into your torso and launches you into the air.
You hear Jess shouting, and your watch beeps. The sand sparkles, a flash of orange across the ocean of molten gold beneath you, and something pulls you out of the air.
You land at the base of your Zombie-Electro tower, or rather Miguel lands with you held firmly in his arms.
“Oh hey, boss,” you say airily. “Fancy seeing you here.”
Though you can’t see his face, he groans, and you know he’s rolling his eyes. Miguel sets you on your feet, waiting an extra second to make sure you can stand on your own.
Pain blossoms across your torso, but your suit works fast to absorb the heat from Cyber-Lizard’s tail and use it to relax your muscles.
“I’m good, promise,” you wheeze, leaning against one of your web pillars. “Go help Jess.”
“Stay here,” Miguel commands before taking off.
“Yeah, no problem,” you nod, waiting until he’s joined the fight to slide to the ground and collapse against your webbing. “I’ll just hang here with my new friend.”
Zombie-Electro groans, a slight shock of electricity traveling down your webs to zap your shoulder.
Your peace doesn’t last long, a massive roar—more the sound of metal screeching against shredded vocal cords—echoing across the dunes. You barely have time to react, getting to your feet—ribs screaming at you in protest—just as Miguel and Jess come flying toward you.
Jess recovers easily, bracing herself and sliding across the sand to stop on your left, while Miguel collides with the harsh structure of your webs on your right.
“Welcome back,” you laugh, holding a hand out to Miguel. He takes it with a huff, using your body as an anchor to jump to his feet. “Think we should call for back—“
“No,” Miguel snaps, and you exchange a look with Jess.
“Miguel—“ You step forward, reaching out to him, but pain shoots up your ribs, knees buckling. They’re quick to catch you, Miguel wrapping an arm around you to keep you upright, and Jess keeping your head from hitting the web-scaffolding.
“We should—“
The familiar shiver crawls up your spine, settling into your brain, the chittering hiss echoing in your mind.
You react a split second before Jess can, the surge of adrenaline giving you the added strength to shove Jess and Miguel away from you as Cyber-Lizard’s claws tear into your back.
You react on pure instinct and survival.
Both hands braced against your web scaffolding, your suit expels all its collected heat in a massive blast. Cyber-Lizard roars as the heat hits the alloy of his cybernetics, the metal already beginning to melt.
He stumbles, but the base of your webs liquify under your touch, and you use the tacky silk to pull him into you just as the entire scaffolding collapses.
Tumblr media
Everything feels…heavy.
Distant.
A constant ebb and flow of consciousness like you’re trapped underwater, waves crashing over you whenever you break the surface.
You’re awake, but you aren’t; still present in your body, aware of your surroundings, but unable to move or react.
You hear people talking around you, sometimes quietly, sometimes urgent. There’s beeping and whirring and occasionally the phantom pain of something pinching into your arm.
It all settles into quiet, and you’re left with your scattered thoughts and a gentle pressure in the palm of your right hand.
Thirst is the first thing to hit you when you wake up.
Your throat’s too dry to make noise, but your eyes peel open and instantly move to take note of your surroundings.
You’re back at HQ, lying in the infirmary without your mask.
Guess the anomalies were taken care of.
You feel the dull ache across your body, and you’re sure you have a collection of bruises and bumps to take care of. You can already feel the heat of your suit encasing your skin and working to help you heal. You wiggle your toes, roll your shoulders, then flex your hands. Everything’s working fine, except…
You flex your right hand again, feeling that same solid pressure in your palm. You squeeze, putting as much strength as you can muster into it.
What is—
“Stop it.”
Your head snaps to the right, ignoring the pain that shoots down your neck. Miguel sits in a chair beside your bed, eyes shut with one arm crossed over his chest and the other…
You turn your hand, fingers lacing through his as you squeeze again, far more gently this time.
He opens his eyes, peering down at you with his best stern look. It’s hard to take him seriously when he looks so tired, with deep bags under his bloodshot and swollen eyes, and stress lines more prominent.
“You look like shit.” You rasp out a laugh. Miguel raises an unamused brow, giving you a blatant once over as if to say have you seen yourself. You roll your eyes, carefully turning your head back to look at the ceiling.
“Did you catch—”
“Yes.”
“Is Jess oka—”
“Yes.”
“You’re mad at me.”
“Furious.”
You nod, eyes sliding shut as you wait for the inevitable lecture. You wait a few seconds, then ten, then thirty. When Miguel doesn’t speak after a minute, you chance another glance at him to find him staring down at your linked hands with a look of blatant worry on his face.
“I’m okay,” you say softly, thumb running hesitantly across the back of his hand.
This is uncharted territory for you. Of course, he’s been worried about you before, but nothing more than asking if you were hurt after a mission.
He says it so quietly you almost don’t hear him.
“You flat-lined.”
Oh.
“I’m sorry.” It’s the only thing you can think to say. Miguel scoffs out a laugh, turning to look at you with a shocked expression.
“You’re apologizing? For almost dying?” he asks in pure disbelief. You shrug, eyes focused on the ceiling. He shakes his head, muttering something to himself that you don’t catch.
“I don’t know what I’m supposed to say,” you mumble. Miguel sighs, hand sliding out of your grip—you already miss the warmth—as he leans back from you. A hurricane of emotions swirls inside you: shame, embarrassment, anger, heartache.
You could accept him being mad, but the least he could do was thank you for saving his life.
Your bed dips, and suddenly Miguel is hovering over you, large hands cradling your face and claws gently scratching against your temples.
Your mind goes blank, unable to look away from the intensity of his earthy brown gaze.
“You’re supposed to say, I’ll be more careful next time, Miguel,” he says, stern and low.
“I’ll be more careful next time, Miguel,” you repeat, blinking up at him.
He leans closer, voice soft, “I won’t put myself in harm’s way again, Miguel.”
“I won’t put myself in harm’s way again, Miguel.”
He leans closer again, inches away from your face.
“I promise to never leave you, Miguel.”
Your breath hitches, and you bring your hands up to lightly caress his. You know what he's gone through, the things that he's lost, the distance he's put between himself and any sort of real connection. It had been one of your main reasons for keeping your feelings to yourself, content to treasure your friendship.
You never imagined that he pictured you as anything more.
“Miguel—” he stills at the sound of your voice, “—I promise to never leave you.”
You barely get the words out before his mouth is on yours, years' worth of swallowed feelings and tension pouring out.
If this is a dream, you never want to wake up.
Miguel pulls away first, pressing his forehead to yours with a long exhale. “You know you’re not going on any missions for a while, right?”
“I could use a vacation,” you laugh, leaning up for another peck on his lips. “Spend some time with my favorite boss.”
He shakes his head, looking down at you with nothing but unfiltered affection. He kisses you again, quick and chaste, before leaning up to kiss your head, lips murmuring against your skin, “Get some rest.”
You nod, and he pulls away, standing from the bed. You expect him to leave, to head back to his office, but instead, he takes the seat next to the bed and leans back.
He works from his watch while you nod in and out of sleep. Exhaustion finally catches up with you, and the last thing you see is Lyla appearing on his shoulder with a wide, teasing grin, laughing, “About time.”

some spider facts!
✧ reader is based on the noble false widow spider, more specifically, the genus Steatoda Nobilis!
“Oh hey, Jess! I didn’t see you there.” You try to laugh it off, looking everywhere but the woman smirking at you.
✧ false widow spiders are known to have poor eyesight!
A swirl of inter-dimensional orange mixes with the lush tropics of your universe’s floating islands behind her.
✧ false widows were originally found in warm, tropic areas before spreading across the united kingdom and the us! they are also known to be ambush hunters, often going after flying prey from high up!
Miguel was right about one thing, you think. The burning sunset colors of your suit shift with the sands, your skin absorbing every heatwave that rolls by to energize you. There really was no one better suited for the job.
✧ false widows are often a combination of burnt red and orange colors, and can survive and thrive in extremely dry and hot areas without water!
You’re a chaotic blur of sticky silk, oranges, and reds, webs shooting from every direction as you wrap Zombie-Electro into a massive cocoon, trailing webs around him and shooting off the sticky fibers to tether him to the sandy ground.
✧ false widows often use the "attack wrap" against prey where their silk is quickly wrapped tightly around their victim
“Not bad,” she laughs, staring up at your makeshift monument to watch your webs solidify. *
✧ false widow cobwebs are similar to sticky fibers, while their scaffold silk is exceptionally strong! i embellished here a little to make reader's webs able to transfer between the two as they need it!

Hi chaos,
So people on other socials are saying playboyy is camp? I don't quite get that vibe so I'm asking do you? Why?
*cracks neck* okay let's do this; this got wildly long so I'm putting a chunk of it behind a cut b/c unlike some blogs I'm not gonna subject anyone to endless and endless scrolling just b/c I added pictures anyway~~
So people are probably getting this from Den himself:
Tumblr media
I talked about camp an itty bitty bit before, specifically I quoted Susan Sontag who was an American academic, novelist and writer mostly known for her essays. You can read more about her here. Specifically I quoted her essay Notes on Camp:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(source)
I really recommend reading the entire essay, it's a bit dated, but Sontag also makes a point that camp changes with the times as well. This essay was written, after all, in 1964, before Hairspray (1988), Batman (1966), Rocky Horror Picture Show (1975), or Mommie Dearest (1981) which are considered camp classics now. However there's a lot of good stuff to learn in her essay and she also names a lot of prominent either queer creators - Oscar Wilde, Jean Cocteau - or prominent figures that the queer community sorta like, claimed - Bette Davis, Greta Garbo.
Camp is a concept, it's not a hard and fast rule. Not every film or TV show that gets claimed as camp is intended to be camp - Showgirls and Mommie Dearest are sincere in their intentions, they are not trying to be camp at all, but through sheer accidental glory they stumbled right into the camp valley. Similarly with a film I recently learned about via this amazing essay, Valley of the Dolls which was also sincere in it's depiction of drugs, sex, and show business but just ended up...campy (this is part 2 which is my favorite part but part 1 is great too):
youtube
I would also recommend this video by Kennie JD on Showgirls and you get a modern idea of how a non-film critic sees the camp in Showgirls even tho it's not intended as camp (Paul Verhoeven is never going for camp in his films he's often going for satire and yet, alas lol):
youtube
Okay so this is getting away from me, the question was "Is Playboyy Camp?"
I would argue, yes but definition but it's more classic definition rather than what people probably associate with "camp" in the modern day. Which is "bad" films, or so-bad-they're-good films, or drag queens - would love to see Zouey in full drag actually - but Rocky Horror isn't a "bad" film, heck Showgirls isn't a "bad" film, neither is But I'm a Cheerleader or Jawbreakers, or many other camp classics. Some are "bad" in that they didn't achieve their intentions - again Mommie Dearest is a great, if unfortunate, example of this actually - but films that intentionally try to be camp tend to fail, like Cat and the Hat starring Jim Carrey. They're to fake, they try to hard.
As Sontag said, camp is both sincere and pure and it is also abstract and highlights aesthetic first and foremost.
Showgirls grabbed people in part b/c it's so so so very over the top; from the acting yes but also the costuming and set design. But I'm a Cheerleader had a way smaller budget, but it's very aesthetics focused:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I've seen people say that Playboyy looks "fake" or "artificial" but so does But I'm a Cheerleader. However artificial is the wrong word, imo, to use here; rather both are camp and surreal. They're going with surrealistic aesthetics to emphasize the emotions of the characters and also, cause gays like color. We love that shit. It stands out. It's fucking fun, it's campy!
I don't think Playboyy is strictly camp but it does take inspiration from camp - it pushes its priorities of the film making to be about the aesthetics rather than emphasizing reality. It's not uninterested in reality - the discussions of sex work in a amoral way (which sidenote I think is a good thing), of sexual desires, the complexities of relationships and boundaries, the acknowledgement of kink etc - but it's uninterested in presenting the world of the show solely through a "realistic" lens visually.
Fantasy is part of the narrative of Playboyy thus that is reflected in the visuals.
BIAC is part satire, which I wouldn't say Playboyy is, since it's not satirizing anything specific - unlike Lovely Writer attempted and didn't accomplish imo doing well from what I watched - it's clear to me that Den is playing a lot with genre. Now how well him and Cheewin the director are accomplishing this, well that's up to individual interpretation.
I can't force people to like Playboyy as much as me - even tho I'm right - b/c I'm not a weirdo and we all like different shit. I do think that Playboyy is using like, actual cinematography however. Like I see that word thrown around a lot and then people provide really like basic examples. Like I'm so sorry but 2Gether's cinematography is basic at best and boring at worst. Two dudes standing in a badly lit room in a mid-shot does not impressive cinematography make - which is fine because a lot of these shows are made on shoestring budgets.
I don't expect Moonlight level cinematography from gmmtv or MeMindY shows. And Playboyy doesn't have that level either it can't it's clearly also made on a small budget.
That said it IS filmed with purpose, and with a specific visual language. Not every shot is great but I do love the sincerity here, it's using color, lighting, and set design with actual thought to enhance the overall aesthetics of the show, enhance the fantasy at play, the camp.
Camp films aren't inherently "bad" films. They make you laugh, scream, and the best ones, actually do say something or spark discussion. Rocky Horror is meaningful to people, But I'm a Cheerleader means something to people, they're both unashamedly queer films that were both kinda bombs - critically and financially - and then slowly gained a cult following b/c they were way ahead of their times.
I get the feeling if camp applies to Playboyy at all it's in that sense, a series that's being pretty harshly maligned and disregarded critically at the moment, but that actually has a ton to say and may end up gaining a following down the line after it's over.
This was like, wildly long and I apologize lol

Can you make yandere boyfriend x gn reader? Like they both in relationship but as As time goes by, the reader feels that their relationship is boring because they think their partner is someone foolish always depend his life on reader, and someone who only try to impress them, in conclusion reader actually doesnt enjoy their relationship probably more like one-sided love? Reader felt only him that the one who try build the relationship (if you know what i mean) and reader trying to break up with him without make him offended (the rest its up to you)
Yandere boyfriend x reader
summary: You get tired of your boyfriend.
note: a lot of buildup,, and there are stuff at the end that might not be for everyone!!(death threats etc)
You were going through a rough patch when you first met him. At that time, you already graduated university a year ago studying something you were definitely not interested in, and spent most of your time struggling to become a civil servant.  You weren't much of a passionate person, and you had no means to achieve a higher position at work, so a civil servant who lives thin but short was the perfect option.
Everyday after your part time job you went to a small private study hall and sat on your favorite seat, secluded from sight. You got a one month pass every first day of the month and studied. There was a guy working at the counter, studying himself. You only talked to him when you payed for the montly pass. He looked like a decent guy, you thought. 
It all started when a drink with a note was on your desk. You thought writing love letters to someone in a library or a study hall was something you can see in memes with cringey quotes on the letter. You picked up the note and read it. 
Neat handwriting was on the small piece of paper. 
'I noticed you studying everyday, and I just wanted to ask if you have time tomorrow?'
The note was simple. But there was no clue of who wrote this note. You didn't know who wrote you a note, but you knew this person was either clumsy or wanted to be your secret admirer.
You studied for hours and prepared to leave like any other day. You noticed the guy working at the counter approaching you, clearly having something to say.
"Hello... um... I'm the one who gave you the note and drink..."
He mumbled, not making eye contact.
"Oh... um..."
"Do you have time tomorrow? We can eat dinner together..."
He said, his hand scratching his neck.
You accepted his offer without much thought, because why not. You needed something to distract you from studying all day long, and I date sounded like something you can count on.
Or.. you just liked how he looked. 
The following story was normal like any couple would. You ate dinner at a restaurant with that guy. You ate pasta if you remember right. You asked him about himself, and decided that you wanted to date him. 
He eventually told you that he spotted you a year ago when he was also studying at the same study hall, which he now works for (a part time job). He was studying for a exam a year ago, just like you, to get into a better university. 
He went to the same university you graduated. He also told you he wanted to talk to you, but only kept his feelings to himself for the months. After he got into the university he wanted, he decided to go for it.
You studied for your own exam coming up a few months later, and walked around town with him at dinner time.
Months passed after the guy at the counter became your boyfriend. He occasionally studied with you, busy comprehending what he learned in university. 
Everything went smootly for the first few months, while getting to know him better. Having someone in your life made your everyday life much more meaning. You felt yourself changing slightly everyday, just to go walking with him on your spare time.
Your rough road ended when you finally passed the civil servant exam after working hard for it for years. Now you had a job, and you had a boyfriend who likes you so much. You also had time to look around the world.
Now that you think about it, having so much to do and having so much chance enjoying doing something else may have drived you to getting tired of your boyfriend.
Your boyfriend didn't change much at first, but when you and your boyfriend started to go to each other's places almost everyday, he changed in a more... tiring way.
There was nothing that extreme, but there was definitely something tiresome.
"What are you thinking about? I want to know."
Your boyfriend asked, while eating dinner at your house.
"Uhh.. nothing."
"I was thinking about going on a trip. Just the two of us. How does that sound?"
He asked.
"That's sounds good. You have graduation soon, right? We can go after your graduation."
You answered as you looked at him searching through his phone.
"What are you looking for on your phone?"
"To send you the details about the graduation ceremony."
"There's going to plenty of people there like.. your family and friends, so I'm kind of uncomfortable, don't get me wrong, i.. uh.."
You can see that your boyfriend didn't expect your response.
"My mom is the only person who's going to be there. Please? I know it might be a little uncomfortable, but I really want you to be there."
"Alright. Send me the details. I'll be there."
The university auditorium was crowded with people. You were standing at the bery back of the auditorium since you were late to the ceremony, and there was no room at the front. You watched the ceremony, trying to spot your boyfriend. 
After several speeches and celebrations, the ceremony ended. Luckily you found your boyfriend immediately as people went out of the auditorium.
"I thought you didn't come."
He said, leading you out of the auditorium.
"I missed the bus so I had to take a taxi. So.. where is your mother? Is she here?"
"I think she's somewhere else."
"Somewhere else? What do you mean?"
"He's here for my brother, not me. Does that make it clear..?"
He said, looking around to catch a glimpse of his brother. 
You never heard of his brother before. Or of his family.
"She's your mother too. Why don't you go see her?"
You said, still confused.
"Hey-"
You saw a guy waving at your boyfriend. His hair was long enough to cover half of his neck , and he had a smile on his face. That's his brother, you thought.
Your boyfriend's brother was nothing like your boyfriend. He was the exact opposite.There was also a little girl about 6 years old and a woman holding the girl's hand beside him, talking to themselves.
You turned to your boyfriend, who was taking a step back.
"I didn't expect that-"
You said jokingly. But you could see your boyfriend's face was not looking good. 
"Hi... "
Your boyfriend greeted them with a uncomfortable look on his face. His mother looked at you with a calm face, and the little girl hid behind her. You were standing there awkward too, not knowing what to do. Your boyfriend looked uneasy around them for some reason.
"Who's that beside you?"
His brother asked.
"I'm dating (name)."
"Oh, ok. You got a good looking partner. Want to join us for lunch? My sister wanted to eat at a restaurant."
"No thanks, the three of you can go."
"Ok then."
You walked out of the university, your boyfriend beside you. There was an awkward silence between you and your boyfriend, and you wanted it to break.
"That's your brother? And.. the little girl is your sister?"
You asked.
"Yes. They are."
He replied with a dry tone.
You were fighting between asking your boyfriend about his family and why he is uncomfortable with them or just keeping your mouth shut. You decided to keep your mouth silent. There may be a reason why he answered vaguely at the first place. You might as well let him be.
"Did you like him? My brother?"
"What do you mean?"
"I mean... no, just forget it."
"Huh?"
After meeting your boyfriend's brother, your boyfriend acted a bit different. Your boyfriend visited your place more often, even everyday, even when you wanted some time by yourself. You did not know why he was doing this, but you knew you were getting tired.
"Don't you think you're visiting my place too much sometimes?"
You said, while watching a movie with your boyfriend.
"Why? I just wanted to spend more time with you."
Your boyfriend got closer, resting his head on your shoulder.
"You know I don't like being alone. Plus, I can't manage myself alone..."
You agreed with the 'can't manage myself' part. Your boyfriend had a clumsy side to him, especially when you were with him alone. You didn't think of him as someone you need to take care of when you first saw him at the study hall. He seemed to be a stoic person, and he still is, but whenever you were with him, he made minor mistakes that you took care of. 
And you knew he liked it when you cared for him. You enjoyed it too at first.
"Oh, don't say that. You're fine off alone. I'm not here tomorrow anyways. I'm meeting a friend tomorrow."
Your boyfriend lifted his head from your shoulder and looked at you.
"You mean your friend from highschool?"
"Yes some of my friends from highschool."
"... ok then."
He went back to watching the movie without much response. You were relieved by his reaction. 
You sent your boyfriend back to his house and went to a cafe your friend runs. It's been a while since you met them, and you got a bit excited. You arrived at the cafe early, and noticed your friend giving instructions to a student who seems to be working here.
"You're here early. If you take a seat somewhere, I'll join you soon after I tell the newcomer what to do."
Your friend greeted you.
"Thanks."
You sat on the corner of the cafe, watching your phone until your others friends arrive.
"You were at the graduation, right?"
You heard a familiar voice and looked up.
".. oh,"
"I didn't know you go to cafes. You don't look like one."
He smiled as he took a seat in front of you without any hesitation.
"I'm here to meet my friends."
He looked around to see if anyone was around.
"My brother and I don't look alike, don't you think?"
"..?"
Why would he ask that.. out of nowhere? 
"We're not actually blood related. My little sister and I are."
He said, trying to continue the conversation.
"Oh, okay.."
He looked at your face too long. You looked far away without focus to avoid looking directly at his face.
"My boyfriend seemed distant at the graduation.. uh.. um.."
"He was always distant."
"Huh?"
"He never warmed up to the family. My mother married his father when I was 16, and your boyfriend was 17. My mother had my sister two years later."
"Oh.. ok."
"He never talked to the family properly for some reason. He ignored my sister all the time when we were both in highschool."
He talked in a dark tone and sighed.
"Can you tell my brother that he should talk to the family properly? You can give me your number and I'll give you more details."
He handed you his phone for you to enter your phone number.
"Uh.. I'll have to think about talking to my boyfriend though."
You were hesitant but put your phone number to his contacts.
"I'll talk to you later."
Your boyfriend's brother left as your friends walked into the cafe. Your friends all got a glimpse of him when he left and immediately asked questions.
"Who's that? Is that your boyfriend you've been talking about?"
"No, uh.. he's my boyfriend's brother."
"Well he's hot."
--
You noticed your boyfriend waiting outside of your apartment. He was looking around, very anxious. You walked towards him.
"I didn't know you were here."
You said, opening the door to the apartment building.
"... I was wondering if we could spend some time."
"Ok, but I don't think I'll stay up late. I'm tired."
You and your boyfriend took an elevator and arrived at your place. You opened the door with a key and led your boyfriend inside. 
You changed into comfortable clothes and sat on the sofa. You thought about the encounter with your boyfriend's brother. He seemed alright, a cheerful, energetic guy worried about his family. 
You still couldn't decide. Was it right to interfere with a family problem when you know nothing?
"What are you thinking about?"
Your boyfriend asked, sitting next to you.
"It's nothing."
You replied. You didn't want to tell your boyfriend that you talked to his brother. Not yet.
"I know there's something going on in your mind."
"Maybe your assumption is wrong. I'm just tired. Let's go to bed."
You lay down on the bed, beside your boyfriend. Your boyfriend drifted off to sleep right after, but you couldn't. You picked up your phone and scrolled down social media without any particular reason. 
You checked your unread messages to see if you missed any and find an account(that you didn't know) messaged you. You checked the profile to see who it is and quickly found out it was your boyfriend's brother, who contacted you after he got your number.
'I found your social media account on my accounts you may know list. Do you mind if we talk? I want to talk more about my brother.'
The message was sent about half an hour ago.
You replied with a simple ok and waited for his answer.
Your thought if your boyfriend can restore his relationship with his family, he would be visiting your home less, and spend some time with his family. Then you can have some time by yourself. Your boyfriend's brother may have a solution, and if your boyfriend gets a healthy relationship with his family, he'll be less dependent...?
'Can we meet? It'll be better if we talk face to face.'
'When?'
'You can decide. I'm available any time at the moment.'
'Then let's meet tomorrow at 12. I have a lunch break, so we can talk for some time. We can meet at the restaurant nearby my workplace'
'Alright.'
After the conversation ended, you charged your phone and closed your eyes.
-
You saw him walking towards to where you were standing. He was a few minutes late, but you didn't mind.
"So.. uh.. should we go to a cafe, or should we just talk here?"
You asked. It was awkward talking your boyfriend's brother when their relationship was estranged. No, their relationship might've been non existent in the first place.
"Let's go to a cafe near here. I know a place."
"Okay. You can lead the way."
You looked at his face from time to time while walking to the cafe. 
You could see why your friend said he was good looking without hesitation. He was the type of person who would catch everyone's eye.
"So... what do you have to say about my boyfriend..?"
You asked. 
He took a deep breath and started talking.
"Did you consider talking to my brother about me.. or his family?"
"Uh.. I didn't tell him yet."
"He distanced himself from me and my mother when my mother remarried his father. I'm a year younger than him, and we were in highschool at that time."
"Oh ok... He might've been stressed from things happening, I was stressed when I was in highschool too so.."
You said, looking away from the man in front of you. 
"Yeah, maybe, but he didn't even treat us like proper family. We tried, but I guess he didn't want to talk to us."
".. um.."
"I know this might be too much.. but my mother and.. father really wants to talk to him. And he won't answer our calls."
"Was there something that.. could've upset him?"
Your boyfriend's brother made a confused face at your question. He wasn't expecting that question, you guess.
"No, not really. He went out to live alone when he graduated highschool."
.. and he hated my sister so much too.. I don't know why still. I just want to sort things out by talking to him."
He said, looking down.
"... oh... I'll talk to him then. Your family wants to reach out to him so..."
You said, hesitantly.
Your boyfriend's brother looked up at you, smiling brightly.
"Thanks, I really am.."
His hand brushed yours as he thanked you. 
You went out of the cafe after some time and walked back to work. 
Your mind was full of how to tell your boyfriend about the situation without him getting upset. His brother really seemed genuine. 
"Hey-"
You lightly touched your boyfriend behind his back. He looked back, grabbing your arm.
"Where have you been..."
"Just shopping some groceries."
You scanned his outfit.
"Do you like these kinds of clothing? I've never seen these before."
Your boyfriend was wearing a different style, more colorful, cheerful and light. He always wore dark and moody clothes, so you were quite amused.
"I wanted to try something new... do you like it?"
He asked, holding onto your hand.
"Well uh.. it does fit you."
Your boyfriend smiled at your comment.
You walked with him to his room, stirring up the courage to talk about his brother.
"I need to tell you something."
You said.
Your boyfriend looked at you, ready to listen.
"I... uh met your brother the other day, and he wanted to talk to you. He said your family wants to reach out..."
You finally said it. 
"..."
To your suprise, your boyfriend's smile crumbled immediately. He grabbed onto your hand harder as he processed what you've just said.
"You met him? When...?"
"... your brother wanted to talk to me about you. He wanted to amend things with you so much."
You said. 
"..."
"You ok..?"
"Why did you meet him in person?? Do you like him?"
He said, his voice getting sharper every second.
"No, no I just wanted to.."
"Do you want me to go away? Talk to my failyso you can spend time someone else....?"
"... no, it's not like that."
You didn't expect him to react like this.
"..."
An awkward silence went by.
"I won't talk about this... again.."
You said, breaking the silence.
Your boyfriend tried to respond, but kept being silent instead.
You did not expect him to be upset like that. Or maybe you should've expected it coming. 
You walked beside him, keeping a bit of distance. 
--
"You should keep some distance with him."
Your friend said, preparing coffee for you.
"I don't know... he hates when I say that."
Your friend sat beside you, giving you the coffee. You took a sip, thinking about your boyfriend.
"Why don't you join my barista class this Saturday at 5?"
Your friend offered.
"Barista class?"
"Yeah, without your boyfriend. You'll get some time relaxing."
You accepted the offer, thanking your friend.
On Saturday, you left your house at half past four to visit your friend's cafe. You put on earphones and played the song that matched your mood. Until you got a call from your boyfriend.
"Hello?"
You answered the phone.
".. c.. can you come over, just for a minute...?"
Your boyfriend responded with a weak voice.
"Are you okay?"
You could hear him coughing through the phone.
"I'm sick...."
"Oh, uh... why?"
"I don't know.. A cold I think. I serious one. Can you please come over...?"
He pleaded.
"I have a barista class today... you sure it won't take long?"
"Yes-! Please come over."
".. alright then."
You ended the call and headed to your boyfriends apartment. 
You opened the door to his apartment room to see your boyfriend right behind it.
"You came..!"
Your boyfriend hugged you tightly.
You push his body away from you slightly, looking at him to see how much he's sick.
"So... do you need anything?"
You asked. 
"Can you stay...?"
Your boyfriend said, his head looking down.
"... are you even sick?"
You look at him again. He seemed fine.
"... I am-"
"You look fine."
You frowned at the thought of your boyfriend lying you just so he can spend more time with you. 
"No, no I'm not.."
He sais. His eyes couldn't find a place to look.
Why would you lie to me like that?"
You asked in a irritated voice.
"have class today."
"..."
"... I'll come back after class. I need to go now. I'm late."
You pushed your boyfriend who desperately wanted to follow you inside his room. Then you ran to your friend's cafe, hoping that you'll be on time.
"I'm here-!"
You said as you opened the door to your friend's cafe. 
"I didn't expect to see you here."
A familiar voice greeted you. It was him. You boyfriend's brother was trying out different recipes in the cafe. 
You walked over to him, sitting next to him.
"It didn't work out. I don't think I can help you anymore."
You said, putting your bag on the floor.
"Oh, that's.. okay. He'll warm up when the time's right. I'll try again."
You focused on the class, trying to forget about your boyfriend. You couldn't understand why he was acting like that. He wasn't like this when you first met him. He was pretty calm and reserved. Now when you look at him, he looks like he's anxious.
"Is something wrong?"
Your friend asked. The lesson ended, and the only ones left wereyour boyfriend's brother, your friend and you.
"... well actually.. I don't know if I want to be with him anymore."
You said. 
"Woah. Really?"
"... I don't know actually. He lied to me just so I can visit him."
"That's.. Um.."
"I just get so stressed when I'm with him..."
You packed your bag and put the coffee and dessert you made inside it.
"Why don't you just break up with him?"
Your friend said.
"Huh?"
"I mean.. if you're so tired of him.. why would you stay with him? Just to make him feel better?"
"..."
"I think finding some else is better for him too."
Your friend said in a stern voice.
"... you're right."
You murmured.
You knew you're getting tired of him every moment you're with him. But you couldn't bring yourself to say that you didn't want him boldly.
"But.. I don't want to blurt it out to him...? You know? I want to tell him as nicely as possible."
"You can tell him.. that you think you and him don't get along well and you want some space. He'll understand at some point."
You nod at your friend's advice.
You walked out of the cafe, memorizing what to say to your boyfriend.
"Can I join you?"
Your boyfriend's brother was standing in front you.
"I think you're going this way, right? I have to go this way too, so I figured it'll be less boring if I have someone to talk to."
"Oh, okay."
You walked beside him, walking fast.
"Sorry for eavesdropping, but are you actually going to .. break up?"
He asked.
"Oh- I guess..."
"That's good. He can be overreacting sometimes."
"...?"
"If you're going to break up with him soon, why don't you see a show with me tomorrow? My friend told me he couldn't, so I need someone."
"I'll.. think about it."
"Okay then. Tell me if you can."
He disappeared into the crowd of people while you walked over to your boyfriend's place. This is the time to end things without anyone getting hurt.
You open the door to your boyfriend's room. You took a deep breath and walked towards him.
"... Are you okay? Are you feeling any better?"
You asked.
"No.."
".. I have to tell you something. It's important."
"Do you believe anything he say?"
Your boyfriend asked. You were taken aback.
"W.. what do you mean?"
".. I followed you for some time. I saw you with my brother. It's all because of him, huh?"
You took a step back.
"... I think we need some time...to think about this relationship."
You said as calmly as possible.
"No, we don't- You can't.. you can't leave me like that."
He said, walking closer to you.
"What do you mean I can leave you like that."
"Do you really listen to what your friend says? And.. do you really believe my brother?"
"It's not like that- you're acting too clingy lately.. I just want some time alone."
"..."
"I'm going home."
You walked to the door, and tried to open it, but your boyfriend blocked you from walking out of his apartment.
"Don't leave."
"Hey- stop blocking the way."
You said sternly.
"If you leave.. I might die."
"Are you threatening me?"
He grabbed your arm and dragged you back to his room.
"I'll never let go of you, after all we've been through. If you leave, don't expect me to do nothing."
"That's nonsense."
"Nonsense...?" 
Your boyfriend walked over to the kitchen and searched for a knife.
"What are you doing???"
He ignore you and picked up a knife, holding it hard.
"Don't worry, I won't hurt you."
"Drop that-"
You took a step back, slowly getting away from him.
"I'll just use this knife on your friend, and him that planned all this shit. Then I'll die too."
He said, his eyes filled with resentment.
"I don't know what you're talking about... just put the knife down and we can talk about this."
"So you can find a way to escape?"
"No, no-"
You were shivering. 
"If you say you're going to stay with me, I'll drop the knife for now."
He said, looking at you.
"... r.. really?"
He put the knife on the table and held your hand.
"Let's live together from now on. And you'll spend time with me all day."
You saw your boyfriend's smile.
It was creepy.. It gave you chills.
You nodded. 
"Okay.."

chapter eight
Tumblr media
Summary: After the sudden deaths of your mother and grandmother, you’re forced to return home to Gotham…and to the man who broke your heart three years ago. Back in Bruce Wayne’s inescapable orbit, you vow to get to the bottom of your former best friend’s new cold personality. But Bruce’s secrets aren’t what you’re expecting. a
a/n: sorry I just get too excited about chapters and have to post frequently...I have like 13 ish chapters written (so like 5 after this one) and feel confident enough to keep posting quickly! I also just like...love this chapter. I made Bruce Wayne say a line I personally think is hilarious and just want to share it. Anyways I loooove feedback!!
Series Masterlist
word count: 2.7k
It didn’t matter. He didn’t matter.
Except, as much as she hated to admit it, he did.
Y/n was starting to look like a crazy person. 
All of her Batman articles, crime scene photos, and as much information as she could print about the Gallo family covered one entire wall of her bedroom. She’d bought red string to be funny–delivered to the lobby along with other groceries for security to inspect–but had ended up actually using it. 
She was standing before that wall now, a week after her visit to the crime scene. 
As she stared at it, hands on hips, she felt like a crazy person. She hadn’t left the tower in a full week and it was definitely starting to get to her. Sure, she worked on the case, occasionally called and badgered Gordon for information, texted Officer Martinez when Gordon was stubborn. But that wasn’t enough. 
She was trapped in a cage. A gilded cage, but a cage nonetheless. Everything reminded her of her grandmother or of happier days with Bruce. 
To make matters worse, Bruce ignored her. He literally fled rooms when she entered or darted around corners when he saw her coming. Not to mention that stupid elevator still wasn’t working so she couldn’t corner him like she wanted to. She couldn’t force him to talk to her, because he was never in his room and the elevator button never worked. 
Which meant y/n had no one to talk to except for Officer Martinez–who had a love for memes, she discovered–and occasionally Gordon, who was a lot less interesting. She hung out with Alfred, sometimes, but now that she suspected he was covering for Bruce’s secret girlfriend, every conversation felt awkward and stilted. 
She rubbed at her eyes, the red of the string blurring before her. When was the last time she had showered? Probably two days ago when she had been bored out of her mind without any other things to do, but she couldn’t remember for sure. 
Her mind was going fuzzy from turning the same information over again and again and again. But she looked again anyway. 
Her tired eyes fell on one article about the Gallo family, a piece written in New York by a relatively famous reporter. She’d managed to get an interview with a distant cousin who was in prison for drug running. It was a brilliant piece, more of a personal feature about the cousin himself than an exposé. Jerry Gallo, young and handsome and charismatic, had made the article a hit. 
At this point y/n could practically quote it from memory. 
For some reason, her brain latched onto an offhanded comment he had made about a bar–no, a pub–that had become an unofficial meeting place. Official business was held in the more secret locations. Jerry Gallo didn’t give those locations, though.He didn’t want to die, after all. He had made a brief comment about “the family’s reach” that everyone knew meant they could kill him, even in prison. He also made sure to note that he had gotten permission to do the article, since he was doing his time for the family. Permission from whom, he didn’t say. 
But the pub had a familiar name. 
“Maverick’s,” y/n muttered as she stared at her wall of insanity. 
She grabbed her laptop and leaned over it as her fingers flew over the keyboard.
Gotham had a Maverick’s too. 
Maybe it was a coincidence. 
But maybe not. 
So she started digging for information about the pub. 
Her heart stopped when she pulled up the public property records a few minutes later. 
It had changed ownership only six months ago, bought by some company that was obviously a shell corporation. 
Her nerves sang as she called Gordon. 
“I think I found something,” she said breathlessly. 
“Tell me you didn’t leave home,” Gordon said instead of a hello. 
“No, I’m still at Wayne Tower, but if you don’t follow up on this lead, I will.” She sat on the bed next to her laptop and pulled it closer. “I was reading this article from a Gallo cousin in New York, one who went to jail for them and got permission to do a piece about how much he loved his criminal family.” 
“Okay…” Gordon said. She heard a siren in the background and wondered where he was. Had there been another murder? But no–she still kept the scanner app up as background noise and hadn’t heard anything. She was jumpy at a noise as common as a siren in a city as big as Gotham. 
“He talks about some pub they liked to use for meetings. Maverick’s. There’s a Maverick’s in Gotham.” Gordon stayed silent and somehow still made it sound skeptical. “The owners sold it six months ago. It was bought by a Galway Atlas Luxury Co. Obviously a fake name–it doesn’t even make any sense.”
“Could be nothing,” Gordon said after a beat. 
“Could be something,” she countered. “Like I said, if you don’t want to look into it, I will.” 
“And show your face at a potential mob spot? I don’t think so. I’ll let you know what we find.” 
When he hung up, part of her was disappointed. She had kind of wanted to visit the pub and see what would happen. But he was right–if her hunch turned into something, the Gallos knew what she looked like. It would be a bad idea. A terrible idea. 
It didn’t stop her from wanting to do it, though. 
Her stomach growled. Satisfied that she might have actually found a clue, y/n decided it was time for lunch. And more coffee. 
Maybe she could buy a wig, she mused as she walked down the quiet hallway towards the kitchen. Do her makeup different, wear heels to look taller. Maybe they wouldn’t know. Maybe it would be enough of a disguise. 
But then, if Gordon was investigating, maybe her presence would screw that up. Maybe they’d send someone undercover who would recognize her. And with her luck, it would all go to shit, ending up with her and a cop both dead. The cop in her imagination looked a lot like Officer Martinez in street clothes. 
Maybe, instead, the Batman would do some reconnaissance. He could sit on a nearby roof like a gargoyle and spy on the place. Or whatever it was he did. Maybe he had fancy gadgets, like a spy. 
She smiled to herself as she imagined Batman on the edge of a roof, hunched over, cape blowing in the wind.
She scrounged in the fridge for some leftovers from…two days ago? Or was it three? Definitely not more than that, so the Chinese food was probably safe to eat again 
She closed the fridge door and screamed. 
Bruce simply stared at her as he sipped a coffee. He was wearing sunglasses inside like a douchebag and had bare feet half-hidden under baggy sweats. He wasn’t wearing a shirt either, which set her heart racing more than the startle had. 
Her cheeks grew hot and she desperately prayed he didn’t notice. 
She quickly whirled to grab a plate. 
“You scared the shit out of me, Bruce,” she said as she dumped her food onto the plate and slid it into the microwave. 
“I was here the whole time,” he said. She tried not to think about his abs on full display or the slight layer of hair across his chest. “You were daydreaming.” 
“I was working,” she said, voice almost a snap. She wasn’t sure why she was defensive. 
“Work makes you smile? I always knew it was your one true love, but…” His voice trailed off and she finally looked up at him. 
She wondered if they were thinking the same thing. It had been a joke about her work, but he had always been her one true love. Her entire body flushed with heat this time. 
“I was imagining catching the son of bitches who are after me,” she said after a moment too long. Her eyes trailed down, down, down without her permission, from Bruce’s eyes to the waistband of his sweats. 
She had to bite the inside of her cheek, hard, to focus again. Bruce was ripped. She had seen it before, had seen the broadening of his shoulders, the way even his baggy clothes couldn’t hide it. But it was another thing entirely to see it in all its naked glory. She had thought a six pack was a thing of myth, only seen in movies. That, and that delicious v-shape of muscle pointing like an arrow below the waist. She didn’t know those kinds of muscles existed on real people–and especially not on Bruce. 
The microwave beeped, startling her again. 
“Jumpy today?” he asked. Thankfully he didn’t seem to notice her ogling. Or he had, and was putting her out of her misery. She wished she could see his eyes. The lenses were dark, reflecting her own face back at her in miniature. 
She turned back around with her plate and started scarfing. She hadn’t had breakfast and she hadn’t had dinner the night before, either. When she was working, it was hard to remember mealtimes. All she remembered was coffee. She eyeballed the coffee machine and wondered if anyone would notice if she stole it to put in her room. 
“Happens when a mob family wants you dead, I guess,” she said around a mouthful of noodles. Bruce leaned back against the counter, crossing his legs at the ankle. He lifted his mug to his lips and those two simple movements made his muscles ripple. She shoved more food into her mouth to help hide her staring. 
Her chewing slowed, then stopped. 
Bruce was covered in scars. 
Covered might not be the right word. But Bruce definitely had several scars she’d never seen before. Though he wasn’t one to frequently run around half naked–he’d always been shy, even after his slutty college phase had given him more confidence and her more of a broken heart–she had seen him shirtless a few times. Mostly it was when he was working on a car and got grease or oil or some other car fluid on him and had to change before going upstairs. 
“Jesus, Bruce,” she said. She gestured to his torso with her fork. “What happened to you?” 
Another too-casual sip of his coffee. “I started doing sit ups,” he said wryly. 
She almost choked on her food. Laughing, she said, “No shit, but I meant the scars.” 
God, it felt so good to joke with him. So normal. Bruce had always reserved his sense of humor for her, and she had missed it. 
He took off his sunglasses. He looked down at himself and seemed to contemplate it. “A few things,” he shrugged. He poked two different scars. “Car accident. Among other things.” 
“A car accident?” she asked. Her brows furrowed. Her grandmother had never told her about a car accident. As far as she knew, Bruce hadn’t been in any car accidents as of three years ago, including his street racing days. “Why didn’t I…?” She trailed off. She knew, though, why she didn’t know about it. 
She was no longer important to Bruce Wayne. 
“A lot can happen in three years,” he said softly. His bright blue eyes bored into hers. She took back her wish for him to take off the sunglasses. 
Tears welled, unbidden, in her eyes. 
The words were like a barb. They stuck in her chest, drawing blood, breaking open all of the hastily stitched wounds there. 
“Yeah,” she agreed softly as she put her plate in the sink. “A lot can.” She had to grip the edge of the sink for a moment to compose herself before facing himself again. 
It hurt to look at him. Especially when he was standing there, looking at her, his face more open than she’d seen it in…well, forever. He didn’t seem upset with her but he wasn’t making any moves to apologize for three years ago either. God, he was probably leaving to see a secret girlfriend, for all she knew about him these days. Maybe he was getting his knuckles banged up working on her car or something. That seemed like the kind of boyfriend Bruce would be. He’d only pay for something if he couldn’t fix it himself. 
“For instance,” he said, seemingly ignoring the suddenly heavy atmosphere in the room. He poured himself more coffee as he spoke, eyes carefully averted. “I don’t even know if you have a boyfriend or anything. Or girlfriend.” 
Y/n blinked at his back. It was the last question she expected him to ask, and the question she most wanted him to answer. 
She’d dated in the past three years but nothing had stuck. And oh, how hard she had tried to fall in love. But just like when she was sixteen, none of the kisses she had gotten were from Bruce Wayne, and her brain never let her forget it. There had been one guy, two years ago, that she had dated for six whole months. He was perfect on paper, really, and would have been perfect for anyone else. He was a news anchor, charming, charismatic, made decent money. He was funny and kind and surprised her with flowers. 
But he hadn’t been Bruce Wayne. 
He had asked her if there was someone else when she had broken up with him. She had said no, but they both knew it was a lie. 
“No,” she said after a too-long silence. “No boyfriend or girlfriend right now. Kind of hard to keep up with dating when your life is in danger.” Instead of sounding like a joke, it sounded…dead. Her hurt was creeping into her voice. She cleared her throat. “What about you? That where you’ve been sneaking off to all the time?” 
His gaze was sharp, calculating, when it met hers again over the edge of the mug he held to his lips. “No,” he said. “No girlfriend right now.” 
Then why did y/n get the sense he was lying? 
She nodded idly before grabbing a mug–her grandmother’s favorite, one that y/n had ordered online that she had covered in pictures of herself as a joke. Her heart ached at the sight of it, but holding it made her feel closer to her. She could imagine the warmth seeping through the ceramic, her grandmother’s hands curled around it, her eyes kind as she listened to y/n. 
Bruce made no move to get out of her way as she aimed for the coffee pot. Their bare elbows brushed as she poured a mug. She shivered at the electric contact, more than she’d had with him in forever. 
Even if he was telling the truth, the right now implied that there might have been someone, once. Someone who wasn’t her. Or maybe he had someone in mind. Someone, again, who wasn’t y/n. 
She inhaled deeply to calm her nerves but that only made it worse. The scent of coffee and Bruce assaulted her nostrils. He smelled clean, freshly showered, manly in that way all men’s deodorant smelled. Her heart skipped a beat. 
She replaced the coffee pot with a shaking hand. 
When she looked up, Bruce was staring down at her. She hadn’t remembered how tall he was up close. Three years was a long time, and the details of him had started to blur in her memory. Like how blue his eyes really were, made bluer by the long, dark lashes that any woman would envy. 
She swallowed around a suddenly dry throat. Her stomach swooped. Here he was, shirtless, less than three inches from her. But he had never felt farther away. 
“I should get back to work,” she said. Her voice cracked embarrassingly. “I have a lead to follow up on.” 
She hurried away before she could say or do anything stupid. She wasn’t sure what, but if her love confession three years ago was anything to go by, it wouldn’t end well for her. 
“You’re leaving?” Bruce asked, his voice dipping lower. Something in the back of her mind noted it, but she was too busy trying to run to the sanctuary of her room to figure out why it rang a bell. 
She paused at the threshold of the kitchen but didn’t look back. “Not that it’s any of your business anymore,” she said, the words clawing up her throat. “But no. I’m not. I’m going back to my cell, don’t worry.” 
He said something she didn’t catch on her way out. 
It sounded a lot like, “It’s always been my business to keep you safe.” 
But she knew those words weren’t true.

i’m so confused as to how everyone seemingly came to the collective consensus that the dream premiere was some huge pivotal moment/statement for taekook. i don’t rlly understand how them showing up to a movie premiere together is a huge deal? it’s not like they waltzed in holding hands or anything like that. it very well could have just been two close friends/bandmates going to a movie premiere together bc why not? if any two other members had gone to a movie premiere together it would be seen as completely platonic and normal so why is tkk going made out to be some crazy brave and “wow” moment for them? everyone knows they’re friends. is it just bc jk was shy? bc that’s pretty normal for him tbh especially given that it was his first public outing since being on hiatus for a long time and only doing weverse lives from his house/gym.
also everyone seems to have concluded that they were definitely intentionally wearing queer coded clothes when honestly their outfits were pretty normal. ppl just dug extensively into the background of every item they wore and found some far-off connection to queerness/tkk when rlly it’s so unlikely they planned each article of clothing out like that. bc for what? they’re not actually trying to come out so why would they plan queer coded outfits as some “secret sign” ? like ppl really think jungkook looked up the exact quotes of the print on his jacket and traced it back to being vaguely alluded to something queer? and then said to himself “yes this is what i’ll wear to show the world” ?? and ppl genuinely believe taehyung intentionally wore the brand juntae kim to symbolize the connection of their two names together…like rlly? it’s just a brand…we talk so much abt how shippers connecting clothes/accessories to prove a relationship is stupid yet we’re out here doing the same and making it one of our biggest moments?
don’t get me wrong i love the dream premiere, it was cute, but i rlly don’t get why it’s been made out to be THAT much of a big deal. like i get the kappa tshirts thing bc those r clearly the exact same shirt on the same day but in what way is going to a movie premiere together some “huge step” ?
Vibes, my friend. Vibes.
Let me start by saying I also don't put much into the clothing. They may have been styled for it, they may have chosen themselves. Who knows? But I also wouldn't be surprised to find out it was deliberate. Tae is knowledgeable about queer culture, British music and art, etc. I don't think it's a reach to assume he knows who Morrissey or Oscar Wilde are. But ultimately no, I'm not factoring it into my thinking.
I found videos of a couple of other times two members attended a thing together.
Joonie and Hobi at Love Your W 2022 photowall.
youtube
They do heart poses together but when you watch the video, they are both completely focused on posing for camera. I'm not implying they're not close but there's a business-like vibe to it. Joonie was there to perform, it's on schedule etc.
I also found Jimin and Hobi at Dior in Paris.
This video doesn't show it but they arrive seperately, do photowall seperately* then sit together at the runway. They're on schedule.
(* there are some pictures showing them together at photo wall but they're edited.)
These both feel a bit different to:
👉 An off schedule event to support Seojoon.
👉 Tae going to his best friends premiere and taking a plus one.
👉 Being together at all points of the event from arriving in same car to leaving together to then continue being together with Wooga after the event.
👉 Hyungsik and Wooshik posed alone and they're super close. This might be because Tae and JK are grouped as BTS though.
👉 The pair of them having a number of moments of eyes on each other rather than anywhere else.
👉 JKs extreme giggliness which, though I see your point about him being shy, seemed excessively nervous.
👉 The fancams of JK stopping and Tae encouraging him.
👉 JKs somewhat pensive live later.
👉 This picture:
Tumblr media
(I know it's a still photograph of a millisecond in time. I'm just being a dork.)
Vibes.
Thanks anon. It's good to look at this stuff twice and compare. If you know any other times two of them attended something, let me know! 💜

dating dabi would include
warnings: lots of swearing
notes: i did it guys ;)
Tumblr media
you guys got together after shigaraki sent toga to recruit you to the league
nobody had any clue why but it obviously worked since now the two of you are besties and share a bed
well, you used to share a bed 😐 (oml it's like we're bed hoppers because they never gave you a bed for yourself)
that was until you and dabi were for reals together
you talked because you woke up really early
he definitely wakes up early too, maybe muscle memory or something like that
he was making breakfast and you were talking to him as he was doing so
he surely enjoyed the company that he rarely gets from anyone
he liked talking to you in the morning so much more than he thought he would've
this is why while he was cooking, he made extra ingredients that were eventually going to be your breakfast
this became a routine
when you started helping him with making breakfast was when he realized that he had a super soft spot for you
one time when the both of you were making breakfast, you guys touched hands while passing one another an ingredient
his eyes flashed up to your own, and he looked into your eyes (a lot longer than was necessary)
your faces gradually began to close the space between the two of you and eventually became your guys' first kiss
after that, you began to get a lot more touchy around each other
linking hands when the league was able to sneak their way into a movie theater for free
little hidden cheek kisses before you left each other to go to bed
one night while you were giving each other a good night kiss, toga saw you and literally shrieked
this woke up the rest of the league and the two of you had no time to hide yourselves so they had no choice but yo assume that you guys were doing exactly what you were doing
he basically shoves you onto his bed and stares at the rest of the people in the room and lets them know that he’s not telling them shit
he said, and i quote, “fucking mind your own fucking business before i fucking kill all of you”
yes he’s so protective of you
blessing and a curse is what i say
he lets you leave the house alone, sure, but once you get home and the two of your are together
he looks over every single inch of your body
“you sure you didn’t fall on your way here babydoll? that scrape on your knee looks pretty bad.”
he will take time out of his night to grab you a drink if you ask him for one
actually i think it depends on the day
if he’s upset, he’ll tell you to get it yourself but then say “could you pretty please get me one too”
the main point of the story is that he loves you so much more than he lets other people see, but when it’s just the two of you, he will display all the affection he wants to you

I'm obsessed with the slasher au, tell us more if you have more? I really like the way Jay is in his dynamics with Tim and Alex
Oh most definitely!
Have a little chart I made aswell. Just for fun.
Tumblr media
And here's some little details about the characters I didn't mention in the original post! Along with more details on the ones that I did.
Tim
•he/they
•rock. Rocks are easy to bash somebody's head in.
•He's actually nonverbal, mostly using sign language to communicate. I like to think Jay saw this one day and decided to learn it on his own, just so he could know what the guy is saying.
•they only put up with Alex when they have to, not straight up being rude for Jay's sake. He feels like Alex overcomplicates everything, taking way too much time with it. It's just cruel to kill somebody slowly, torturing them to death for the sake of entertainment.
Jay
•he\him
•Not a fighter, not by a long shot. Bro has lost every fight he's been in.
•Does not blink. Seriously Jay has a hard-core staring problem. Alex will often point it out because he doesn't even realise he's doing it.
•Whenever he wants to film something and Alex is either too busy or isn't in the mood, he goes out and watches whatever masky is doing. He thinks he's being sneaky by hiding in the bushes or behind a tree in the dark; but masky knows he's there, that blinking red light always gives him away. But does he care? Not really. After a while he just accepted Jay as something he wouldn't get rid of. Kind of like a stray cat that just shows up sometimes.
•if you've seen the series, you know how Jay films people without permission. This one takes that up to the max; stalking them, recording them in their homes, just for his own entertainment. Bro has some weird hobbies.
•tried eating somebody's eye, he's always wanted to know what the texture would be but Alex stopped him; quoting "bloodborn illness" as a reason not to.
Alex
•he/him
•his weapon of choice is a gun, obviously, but he only uses it when he has to.
•Out of the four, Alex takes his 'job' the most seriously. He's a perfectionist at heart so he takes great time and effort into setting up his work; making sure each part of his plan is executed perfectly and efficiently.
•He considers what he does as an art form, not as 'senseless killing' like he perceives tim and Brian to be doing. If he's going to take a life then it's going to be worth it, he's better than those filthy creatures getting off on somebody's head being smashed in with a pickaxe. It's not a snuff film guys! It's just art that you wouldn't understand he swears!
•sees it as his job to keep Jay out of trouble; he swears that guy can't survive on his own, always doing something stupid.
Brian
•He/it
•you can't go wrong with the classic knife. But he also likes a little bit of strangulation, it usually depends on how he's feeling.
•I can see him being like two completely different people. Brian is kind, sweet, and overall a nice guy, where hoodie is a downright narcissistic dickhead. Like jekyll and Hyde but it's just one guy who really likes the scream franchise.
•did I mention he likes scream?
•has a sort of "nuh uh" and "fym nuh uh" relationship with Alex. It loves to mess up his meticulously planned scenes, moving things so slightly out of place that he only notices after filming. He finds the way Alex's face scrunches up in anger funny.
•Jay tried recording them *once* and hoodie immidetly grabbed the camera and smashed it to bits. He doesn't put up with it like masky does, he sees it as evidence that needs to be destroyed. It would have killed Jay after that if it wasn't for masky telling him that it was a normal thing that he did and wasn't any harm.

Some Random Mista Headcanons! (Some r kinda NOT SFW)
Has definitely thought about getting a navel piercing
I wouldn't say he's really clingy?( At least not in the level i hc Nara to be where he'd definitely want/need to know where his s/o is at, at all times in fear of them suddenly abandoning him-) But like, Mista does like it/feels relieved when his s/o updates him on where they're at/what they're doing just bc of y'know, mafia- And he's been left a bit traumatize by witnessing what had happened to the woman he saved, that he's afraid anyone he loves could suddenly have that happened to them and he, or someone like him, wont be there to save/help them.
Bc of that, I also think he absolutely hates ppl that get too handsy immediately. It's not jealousy, he's just genuinely afraid of his loved one being taken advantage of/being forced into do something they don't want to do.
Mf turns every game between him and s/o into a stripping game 💀
Absolutely adores PDA- (obviously I mean, I hc that mans has a thing for fucking in public so why wouldn't he love PDA?-)
I hc that this boi grew up with multiple siblings- Which is a reason why he's so over his stand. They just remind him of his siblings and bc he has younger siblings, he knows how to take care of them.
He loves the beach... Just that-
Mista keeps condoms in his boots. He sometimes accidentally pulls them out instead of his bullets 💀
The pistols always snitch on him, how he's feeling, and embarrassing shit he's done/said.
Definitely owns thongs-
He definitely has a playlist for when he wants to get down and dirty either with himself or someone else-
Ik this man's gropes his s/o on a regular basis 💀 Just a quick grab, squeeze, or smack of certain areas 😭
I ACTUALLY GIVE CREDIT TO MY FRIEND FOR THIS ONE- He hc that when Mista's desperately lonely and depressed about his s/o being away for so long, he goes as far as fucking his own pillow 💀 (that poor innocent pillow, #JusticeForMista'sPillow)
Kinda rare for him to call his s/o by their name. He absolutely prefers to use pet names/endearing names.
Man's jerks off twice a day, maybe three if wakes up to morning wood-
Definitely owns porn magazines (mf stole them tho-)
He owns two tube tops-
He has a BIG family. Aside from having a couple siblings, his older siblings have children. Has quite a bit of aunts and uncles as well as cousins. Yet, no one knows about his "profession". He simply tells them he works for a company that requires his to travel quite a bit. And whatever scars they're able to point out on him he shrugs them off as scars from guys trying to mug him.
He has a genuinely wholesome relationship with his family. The only reason they hadn't been able to bail him out of jail when he was thrown in it was because they didn't have the money to do so. However, they're all extremely proud of him for saving the woman.
He "worked" at a small family business growing up. (Worked, in quotes, bc he mostly goofed around or just lounged around in the back lmao-)
Has a family tradition where his entire family meets up at one of their homes just so they can all see and bond with each other. Obviously, he always goes, and has dragged the Bucci gang to it before. (Fugo and Abbacchio agreed that never again- Narancia loved how sweet and fun everyone was- And everyone demanded for Bruno return next time-)
He isn't sure if he wants children or not (biologically or otherwise) because he, obviously, loves the energy his big ass family brings. But, he also understands the reality of his line of work. Though, his family constantly pressure him to have kids one day.
✨Bi King✨
He's never out right said he's fruity to his family- He's heavily implied it to them. Some of them understand and actually accept him (bc they been knew ever since he started dressing himself up-) but others still don't get it and think he only gets pussy- (those who don't understand r actually the ones that pressure him the most to have kids 💀)
His mom and dad have known since day one that he also liked dick-
His siblings bet on whether he's gonna end up marrying a guy or a girl (some bet he's gonna stay a hoe and never get married-)
Spoils his family thanks to Mafia money
Sweats SUPER easily, that's the real reason he gets rlly stinky
Despite being naturally really warm, he loves warm clothing even during the summer (another reason as to why he gets stinky so quickly/easily)
Has absolutely no clue how to match outfits- He just throws on the first items he sees and since he considers his clothing nice/attractive clothing, he figures it all matches/goes together (it doesn't.)
Man's sleeps ONLY with boxers (or butt-naked-) and no blankets. Only uses the thinnest blanket known to man in the winter-
Absolute sucker for men in fancy ass suits. He somehow finds them as sexy as lingerie
Y'know how u fall asleep one place then wake up in your room? It's him. He's the one carrying you to bed whenever you fall asleep somewhere else-
He gossips a shit ton. But he's slightly better at keeping secrets than Narancia- The only reason he'd tell is if he's bored and wants to start up ✨drama✨ or the person who the secret came from pissed him off and he decides to expose them
Pretends to be in serious pain when he's not just so he could hog his s/o's undivided attention and they can shower him with physical affection-
He owns a motorcycle but only uses it on his days off when he goes out and to show it off
He's a soar loser- If he loses at a game he'd definitely start being like "Yeah... This game isn't really fun. Let's do something else"
Loves to leave bite marks on his s/o's thighs, neck, and shoulders
Needs to take at least one nap a day with his s/o, doesn't matter how long it is. He n e e d s it-
Can and does stick other stuff into his pants when he gets tired of holding them instead of using his pockets like a normal person
One of his favorite animated movies is definitely Sausage Party 😭
Every time he has sex in a multiple of four, he gets an STI 💀

The thing that's really like working me about this whole thing in part 4 is that Ray I do think is trying to come to terms with the fact of that him and Mew can't be and won't be more than what he wants. He literally spent the whole day with sand genuinely happy and then Boston does what as I expected he goes it continuously brings up the past.
He sees that he couldn't get to mew the way that he would have wanted! so he goes and targets Ray knowing how easily worked up he gets. This is perfect he can go and manipulate and get his fix of feeling Superior than every single one of his friends. Boston is literally the definition of if I can't get what I want then no one else can either. He's literally causing distinction in his own quote on quote friends all for what for what Boston. I don't know if you guys saw but the way that he looks at Ray and sand and how he looks at mew is with the most complete Envy I have ever seen in a person. He really envies them he really feels threatened by them, he doesn't want them to get ahead of him in anything, he doesn't want them to be better than him he doesn't even want them to even find happiness. Boston continuously airs out everyone else's dirty laundry, like its it's his right or business to do so.
He sees Ray's vulnerability and his weaknesses and the same with mew. He knows how serious mew values his virginity and wasn't just going to drop it to anyone but goes ahead and introduces top to the friend group knowing what top is already about! And mew voicing his concern that he feels like that top will get bored with him if he doesn't give it up to him sooner rather than later he only set him up on top because like he said he pities him.
And then with Ray clearly fighting his own demons. He goes and continuously brings up his history with Mew when his relationship with Mew go so much more than just the kiss that they had 2 years ago I'm sure he's aware mew saved his life. When he was at his lowest and yes they did KISS and yes Ray completely crossed the line and kiss him without his consent when he shouldn't have but to go and air out your friends business as if you have the right to do so I'm sorry that is wrong
And the thing is this also Boston isn't the only one who's done wrong clearly every single character has done wrong! I'm not just putting things on him I'm only saying the things that he continuously does. I'm not making him out to be more bad than what he actually is. what we're seeing of Boston is 100% him. This is no one exaggerating or people trying to make him look worse than he is this is just how Boston is.

2 5 and 9 for rui!! bonus points for 5 if its not a pjsk song ksdjhgdfj
sorry this is a bit late!!! was quite busy today.
2) favourite thing about this character
many things come to mind when im asked this question but one of the most personal and touching aspects of rui's character is definitely the unthinkable amounts of love he has. for everything.
how despite it all, he chose to love. despite his suffering, he chose to love. he could never bring himself to have ill intent towards anybody who has ever wronged him. he carries so much love for this planet, for every living thing that breathes. he handles plants with such tender care it makes me want to curl up into a ball and cry a little. even for inanimate objects like his drones and robots, he treats with such gentleness as if they were his own children. his mechanical darlings. you've got to be kidding me
and oh, how deeply he loves his friends, those who have led him through the dark with such tender, firm hands. those who put their trust in him, in him and his eccentric ideas and imagination with no limits. those who gave him a chance, those whose company says "i love you, i love you for who you are and i love being with you" more than words could ever express. those who make him question whether he's living his own life or one of an incredibly fortunate fellow in a stage play.
in the end, rui chooses to love. rui loves deeply and loudly in his own special way. and i think there's something incredibly meaningful about that.
5) first song that comes to mind
okinimesumama by eve :] his alt is my favourite rui alt in the entire game and it's just a very very ruicore song to me. iirc tokishun even said that it's a song that suits him very well BUT i may be wrong. don't quote me on that. I mean:
Waiting for the "1, 2..." signal Holding hands with you is An act of courage for me
Now, we form a circle and start to spin Bit by bit I come to hate it, but I come to like it Hey, hey, I don't even understand the meeting of my selves We steadily close the gap But we remain far apart
There's no meaning to being humble and respectful So bye-bye to my embarrassing dreams From now on, forever, let's get along
We now avert our eyes from each other Bit by bit I come to hate it, but I come to like it Hey, hey, I don't even understand the meeting of my selves I steadily become better But I'm crumbling to pieces Da-dum, you disappear before I can touch you
IT'S HIM!!! IT'S HIM! BUT ALSO i've been thinking my love mine all mine by mitski : )
'Cause my love is mine, all mine I love mine, mine, mine Nothing in the world belongs to me But my love mine, all mine, all mine
My baby, here on earth Showed me what my heart was worth So, when it comes to be my turn Could you shine it down here for her?
9) could you be roommates with this character
Absolutely Not. rui and i have many things in common, and not wanting to clean because we end up making a mess within a day is one of them. i don't think either of us would survive if you put us in an apartment for a month, actually. if you were to put two teenagers with an unbridled, hungry desire to create and the inability to take care of themselves, i do not think it would go all too well
maybe if there was like one other person who's very reliable, I'd consider it, but I'd just feel bad for them
on the other hand, we could really bond. fun times
THANKS SO MUCH FOR THE ASK :D i love thinking about this guy

late night thots 😏:
it's 3am rn, i'm still writing that fic but since it's so heavy on domestic stuff, i was thinking about wedding stuff with ghost.
he's definitely the type of guy that doesn't know anything about jewelry and ring sizes, but he wouldn't hesitate going around asking people. trying his hardest to be all sneaky and mysterious, and to not drop too many hints but legit everyone would see right through him.
but he'd definitely pick the prettiest ring to ever exist. he'd engrave his name inside it - ever heard that quote "i'll have my name burning on your skin for days"? yeah, that's his intention 100%. so no matter what happened, no matter whatever would get between the two of you - he could always remember giving you this little reminder of his love - of the promise he made to you; that he'd always make it back home to you.
he would start carrying a small notebook with him, and quickly scribbling something in randomly - hiding it before anyone could even catch a glimpse of what he was writing down. sometimes you'd caught him staring at you, sitting on the kitchen floor. he'd write a few words down before he looked up to you again - carelessly throwing the notebook away, before he cupped your face in his hands, pulling you down into the sweet embrace of his lips. other times, he'd do it when he was away from you, when he was supposed to be discussing the very important details of the next assigned mission - he'd stand in the corner, not paying any attention to the rest of his group or literally anything but his little project book. soap would start cracking jokes at him, but simon wouldn't even bother giving him the usual "cut the bs, sergeant" death glare. he was too busy trying his damn hardest to write down at least half decent, somewhat memorable vows or whatever you wanna call it - whatever it is, it was never really his thing but he's trying his hardest - for you. the thing is - he'd make up all these scenarios in his mind - running over each one, rethinking every single part of it, and when he'd actually propose to you, he'd just mumble a quick "wanna marry me?" not even giving you enough time to process his words, he'd pull you into a kiss - he knew the chances of rejection were slim, but it was never impossible and he just couldn't bare the thought of hearing it. when you'd pull away from the kiss his hands would be trembling, his entire body shaking - with anticipation mixed with fear, with tinniest bits of the most utter joy he's ever felt. the quiet whisper of your voice - "yesyesyesyes" - ringing in his ears - just about the sweetest thing he's ever heard. oh, and he'd give you that notebook.
he'd definitely buy you flowers each and every opportunity he'd get. he'd never let the old ones wither before replacing them with a fresh bouquet. he would also make a habit of buying you a different kind each time - unless it was roses - he would dare to buy you those more than once. after he'd seen how your eyes lit up that one time when he first gave you a single red rose - he picked it during a mission, tugging it underneath his jacket, which made it wilt hours before he finally gave it to you - awkwardly stretching out his arm towards you, "it reminded me of you" - what a cliche fucking thing to say.
