after some reflection I've reached the conclusion that to my mind nona the ninth did need to be its own book -- not in terms of delivering the plot or character developments, necessarily, but to be a thematic mirror to harrow the ninth in a way I don't think you could have done if this was also trying to do its job as the last book of a trilogy.
harrow the ninth is about the horror of nothing changing -- the grim, unending slog of mental illness, the inexorable method in madness grinding along, grinding you down, moment upon moment; it's about how grief can seem to create its own pockets of eternity. it's about how some things can only be remembered in forgetting.
nona the ninth is about the horror of everything changing all the time forever -- the people you love, until they aren't quite the people you loved any more, the places you love, until it's become somewhere you can never go back to, the world, every day -- you, until you die one way or another, in truth or in no longer recognizing yourself. you go to school for the hour of science and noodle every day, until one day you just don't anymore, and nothing can be done about that. nona is about 'life is too short, and love is too long', but also 'you can't take 'loved' away'. pyrrha, who's tried for ten thousand years to kill her feelings but "Don't worry, kiddie. I'll keep loving you -- my problem is I don't know how to stop." even when it just hurts us, we love. we just can't help ourselves. and at the end alecto remembers herself (itself?), which means forgetting nona.
the strange paradoxical comfort of madness vs. the unbearable loneliness of sanity. harrow is mad, and for all her suffering it keeps her from having to face the most inconceivable, the thing she can't live with: a universe without gideon. cam and pal are so so sane, and they can't bear it. they die to live in a way they can... uh, well, live with, and it's a crazy thing to do but it's the kindest thing they could find for themselves. the world of harrow the ninth is so dead and deadened, and the world of nona is so unbearably alive.
(ironically ntn was a much more difficult read for me than htn, because the way htn works is already so close to how my own mind works (yes, unfortunately, really. no, I'm not okay, but not in a way anyone can do anything about with any immediacy so let's ignore that for now lol). I understand the logic of it intimately, for all it looks confusing if you just see the surface. but the ongoing nature of the restless dread in ntn -- the way you love these people, and through the book they keep drifting away from you so steadily and gradually that you can't even put your finger on exactly when you really lost them as they were at the beginning. at the end, when pyrrha is carrying nona because she can't stand anymore (carrying her in 'the halo of her arms'...... god. yes, that is what a parent feels like for a child huh), I vicariously felt what I suspect is pyrrha's train of thought as well that like... what if you could just hold her close enough, love her hard enough, that she won't have to go, that she could get to live. what if you could just refuse to let go of her, what if you could be strong enough for that. and one person in this universe is that strong-- why would you let someone go -- away from you -- untouchable? John's obsession with being able to touch his loved ones, except he's so profoundly fucked up he doesn't understand any way to do it but to make them into extensions of himself, to consume them and transform them into himself, the very hungry caterpillar style -- he wanted to touch so he made them his hands, and he doesn't understand why it doesn't fulfil him. and thank god pyrrha has the soul and sense to understand why you can't just eat what you love, narrowly, but I still wanted her to be able to still hold nona and protect her from everything including death so fucking bad, and of course she can't. that's the tragedy of it, that's the beauty of it. love doesn't change anything, and we just can't help but love anyway, and it changes everything, and it's all we can do sometimes. fuck I'm going to need a lot of lying face down on the floor for a few hours to process this book huh lmao)

Hi sorry for requesting again but I was wondering you had CG Headcannons for Mk 11 Johnny Cage ? He's a comfort character at the moment and I'm happy to see you do content for MK 10,11 and 1 :) sorry again for being awkward in my first ask I've been off tumblr for a while and recently came back ...
MK11 Johnny Cage!!! <3
And your fine, don't worry one bit!!
Tumblr media
<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
CG Johnny Cage MK11 Hcs
💫 Depending on where we are on the timeline depends on how ‘good’ on a CG he is (all CGs are good, they're trying their best <3)
💫 Younger Johnny is more of a babysitter or older brother figure, but still a pretty good CG
💫 Older Johnny takes on a more stable CG role (we're gonna focus on him)
💫 You have so much Johnny Cage merch!!!!
💫 Any kind of doll or stuffie made of him, you've already got it!!
💫 You've even got some shirts with his old movie designs
💫 Mostly you have these because he gets a copy of almost anything ever made of him (and he likes to spoil you <3)
💫 Older Johnny has kinda left his old Hollywood life behind, joining the military and doing some movies here or there
💫 He's settled down, more to Earth than his other selves
💫 That will not stop him from buying anything you want, no matter the price
💫 You want a yummy treat? What kind? He's already got his wallet put
💫 He knows you have a thousand and one plushies . . . But a few more can't reeeeeeally hurt anyone
💫 You are his baby and nothing is allowed to harm a hair on your head
💫 You think your clingy? Psh, you haven't seen Cage Clingy
💫 Constantly wants to hold or coddle you, your just so cute!!
💫 But like, he guesses he can let you go run off, but he has to be nearby and you have to be in eye distant!!!
💫 Matching Johnny Cage inspired jammies (he happened to have them already)
💫 He has a habit of babying you even if you regress older
💫 If you like being treated like a princess/prince/royalty? Brilliant!! He's got you covered!!
💫 If you want more independence, he's decent with it, and will treat you more your age
💫 Finds middlespace regresses entertaining (mostly if your an emo regressor)
💫 Loves making bracelets and drama when your bigger
💫 Drama can be almost anything, including this dramatic thing that happened in your favorite TV show
💫 Babble encourager!!!
💫 Full blown conversations with babblers, he thinks they're adorable
💫 If you want to have him dress up and have a tea party, he's so for it
💫 Make him wear a tiara and tutu, he'll do it with pride
💫 Will also let you paint his nails any color you want
💫 While he loves and babies you, he also puts his foot down >:(
💫 If your a rule breaker, prepare for a bunch of timeout time, because there's almost not changing his mind (unless you regress really small)
💫 Won't punish you if it was an accident though, he's not terribly mean
💫 If you ever offer to spar or wrestle him while your tiny, he'll generally laugh
💫 Not at you!! Well, kinda
💫 It's just, your so cute!! Thinking you could beat him up, that's so adorable 🥺
💫 He'll let you fight him though (and probably let you win, but you don't reeeeally gotta know that)
💫 He'll treat you with ice cream when you ‘win’
💫 He's getting old, but he's got the energy he had when he was in his 20s (y'all he's like almost 60 in MK11 can you believe that??)
💫 If you regress as base, your either right by his side holding his hand, or your always in reach just in case
💫 There is a not touching rule on everything if your small on base, there's a lot of dangerous stuff and Johnny's not having you get hurt
💫 He'll do his little “Here's Johnny!!” while playing peek-a-boo
💫 Sometimes he'll egg you on to do naughty things he finds funny (like prank Sonya by putting a bit of salt in her coffee)
💫 Will also take the blow when Sonya starts getting pissy because someone (👀) ruined her coffee
💫 Your naptime? Nuh-uh. Our naptime 😎
💫 Man's old, he'd love to just laze around and cuddle
💫 But he's also got the spirit of a child, and would love to run around with you
💫 If your small while he's working out, he'll laugh as you try to pick up his weight
💫 He'll probably give you one of those workout balls or some super light weights so you can be just like Daddy :D
💫 . . . Dad jokes 😒
💫 And sometimes they're not even good!! Most times they're just to poke or annoy you!! >:(
💫 Most times they're actually really funny though
💫 Favorite CG nicknames are Daddy, Dada, Papa, Bubba, and literally anything you wanna call him
💫 Your go-to babysitters are Sonya and Cassie
💫 (Maybe also Jax and Kenshi)
💫 Cassie and Sonya both love you, you've got the whole Cage family behind your back
💫 Favorite little nicknames to call you are Princess, Baby Girl/Boy, Little One, Sweetiepie, Honey, Little Star
<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
I hope they're more MK11 Johnny and not MK1 Johnny, and I can always do more or something like that. <3

ok but mei how do you feel about dbf!obi wan
bc honestly if he was my dad’s best friend sheeeesh, i would be so bad about purposely touching him or bumping him or making any contact
this post is 18+, minors dni.
okay yk i have to put this into sw context and do master + padawan dynamics BUT because masters and their padawans typically spend a lot of their time together when their padawan is underage i don't really like the concept of a master being with their own padawan, even though they'd be of legal age when the relationship takes place. it's just not my thing. that being said, if i were a 20+ year old padawan in the jedi temple and (not-my-)master kenobi strolled by, i'd be on my fucking knees.
i truly do think obi-wan is the crush of the temple. all the padawans gather together for sleepovers with their friends and the topic of crushes comes up and they giggle and squeal and freak over the way master kenobi's growing a beard!!! or did you see the way master kenobi brushed his hair back today <3333 everyone in sw just seems to be absolutely obsessed with the guy and i can't blame them.
anyways, on to the meat of the ask.
dbf!obi-wan in sw context -> your master's friend. i won't lock in a master for you even though i def have my own preferences, but basically whoever's apprentice you are, it's someone who most likely grew up with obi-wan and was friends with him for a while. it means you've had him over for dinner a thousand times, and he can be found chatting with your master when you return from your afternoon classes. you're pretty sure they've spiked their tea, but you will never get a straight answer from either of them even though you yourself are old enough to drink.
he's always very kind and warm with you, always takes the time to ask about your studies and your saberwork and congratulate you on whatever gleaming reputations you've acquired.
if your master ever has to take a solo mission, you'll be welcome to stay at the kenobi-skywalker residence. you're more than old enough to stay alone, or in the dorms, but you're rarely strong enough to refuse the offer of sleeping on obi-wan's couch.
you... might manipulate the situation a little. you might play up your struggles with your coursework, putting an emphasis on how terribly you're doing with a class that you know obi-wan excels at the contents of. instantly you're offered a tutor, or a sparring partner if you choose to bemoan your simply awful saberwork. purposefully letting obi-wan corner you and knock you to the mat and stand above you sweaty and panting is not what you should be doing, but you do not have the restraint to stop yourself.
anytime anakin is feeling a little understimulated at the temple and needs to run wild through the streets of coruscant obi-wan will invite you to come with, if only to have someone to stroll leisurely along beside while anakin is bouncing off the walls and diving into dumpsters to see if he can scavenge a part for a droid he's working on. you're friends with anakin, sure, but his master's company is exhilarating. you're also partial to letting anakin pilot any speeders the three of you take together, and cowering in the back with obi-wan about how fast and recklessly anakin is driving. once or twice you've even grabbed his hand when anakin has taken a sharp turn, or drops down a few lanes just to fuck with the two of you, and he's let you squeeze as hard as you want while he uses his other hand to rub comforting circles into your back.
if he sees you in the halls he'll pull you aside for conversation, or he'll share your table in the archives if you're both reading something, or he'll seat himself next to you in the refectory if he sees you're dining alone. sometimes, if you're with your friends, he'll catch your eye and smile at you from across the refectory as he sits down somewhere so as not to 'dull the potential for fun' as you sit with your friends
overall, your crush on him is probably some sort of do-i-love-this-man-or-is-he-just-nice-to-me sheltered-childhood sort of thing, but that doesn't mean the feelings aren't real.
--
best friend's dad as a bonus because i think abt it a lot: becoming partners with anakin through a project for one of your classes, and you head to his quarters to do it, and... and his master is there, and he smiles at you and offers you tea, and you're sitting there trying not to blush because dammit you're a grown adult and you're perfectly capable of being civil and normal around people you find attractive; you've been raised and trained to be a jedi knight, you will not let yourself get wrapped up and distracted with a crush.
anakin's a nice dude though, funny in his own weird way, so you end up hanging out more. everyone kind of thinks you're smitten with him, and you can understand why he's the heartthrob of his own generation, but you're looking over his shoulder at his master <333
i can't tell if i think anakin would know or not. i think that he's very gifted with the force but i'm not sure if i think his specialty would be perception. if you did happen to be a bit too obvious anakin won't ever shut up about it, but he will spare you from teasing in front of his master. behind closed doors though, he's ping-ponging between calling you gross for liking a man over a decade older than you; for liking his master, and telling you he'll have to fake some terrible injury to get you and obi-wan alone in the secluded waiting rooms of the halls of healing sometime soon.

(I Won't) Run Away
Draco was really nervous. He had a thousand tells for nervous gestures and his anxiety really got to Harry; it made Harry's heart beat a little too fast, made his palms sweat just a little. He couldn't really manage it.
"Hey," Harry said, tapping his forefinger against Draco's, "you still with me?"
Draco turned to look at him, "Yeah. Sorry," he said, "just a little preoccupied."
"With what?" Harry asked, trying to keep his voice level as he took another sip of his drink, watching Draco and trying to read into his very soul.
He opened his mouth and said, "Marry me?" And the words seemed to surprise Draco as much as they surprised Harry, if the shocked raise of his eyebrows and open mouth were anything to go by.
Harry froze, his drink part of the way back to the bar, and stared uncomprehendingly at Draco. "What?"
Draco swallowed before seeming to work himself up again, "I love you," he said softly. "I want to spend my life with you. Will you marry me?"
How had this gotten this far? This relationship was supposed to have been easy, no strings attached. And they'd started going out together for food, and occasionally slept in the same bed, but it wasn't supposed to have come to this. "No," Harry said sharply, too sharply, as he staggered off of the bar stool. "You can't mean that."
And before Draco could get even another word out of his mouth, Harry was fleeing the bar, leaving his drink half drunk, and Draco sitting there staring at him like he'd crucio'd him.
They'd picked a bar close to Draco's house and Harry found himself pacing on the sidewalk outside of the house. He couldn't just leave. Not without some sort of explanation. He owed Draco that much, owed him the words he should have said in the beginning. This was never meant to last. Harry wasn't allowed to have people to keep.
He collapsed on the front steps and put his head in his hands, giving himself permission to feel all of the grief and fear raging through his chest.
He could feel Draco's magic before he could see or hear him, his magical signature always tasted like honey on Harry's tongue and smelled like flowers covered in morning dew in the summer. He ached with it.
Draco stopped a few feet away and Harry looked up at him. "Sorry," Harry croaked. "Godric, Draco, I'm so sorry that I left," he said as honestly as he could.
"I'm just surprised that you're here, to be honest," he replied uncertainly.
Harry nodded miserably, "I'm sorry," he whispered.
Draco sat down next to him on the step, "Do you want to tell me why you're here?"
"Because I love you," he whispered helplessly.
He frowned, "That was a terribly strange response to give to someone you love for asking you to continue loving them."
He shook his head, "Don't you see?" he asked him, because he had to know the truth, he had to see the way that Harry poisoned everything he touched. "Everyone I love ends up dead," he whispered. "You're so much safer if I don't love you, if you don't love me."
"Harry-"
"I'm serious, Draco!" he protested. "Everyone who loves me is forced to die to protect me. And I should have known better," he continued. "Once this was more than just a casual fling, I should have ended it." He shook his head, burying his face in his hands, "In the end everyone either leaves or gets taken from me."
He was quiet for a minute and Harry wondered if Draco was trying to figure out how to tell him to leave. But he surprised him when he started, "My mum and dad weren't an arranged marriage," he said apropos to nothing. "Which is pretty uncommon in pureblood circles."
"Okay?" Harry said, confused by the left hand turn Draco was taking.
He gazed up at the stars as he continued, "they were on the cusp of a war, as well you know," he said, "and in the retelling of their story, my mother always quoted what he said to her the night that he proposed."
Harry gazed at him quizzically, tilting his head as he listened and trying to figure out how this was related.
"He told her, 'I'm not the wisest man that you'll meet. And I'm not a hero; I won't be the one saving the day.'"
"Very romantic," Harry said.
Draco shook his head, "Listen," he chastised gently. "'But,' he told her, 'if you say yes to marrying me, I promise to always stay. No matter what comes, I won't run away.'"
He hummed, uncertain what he was supposed to say about this story, but wanting Draco to continue.
"I was, as you can probably imagine, a strange child. I had a wild imagination and it made for some pretty awful nightmares and thus some very difficult bedtimes," he said.
Harry hummed sympathetically, on the rare occasion that one of them slept over at the other's house, they had witnessed what some of the nightmares looked like.
"My mum used to climb into bed with me," he said, smiling a little at the memory, "and she'd always promise the same thing, that she wasn't going to leave me, that no matter what she had to do, nothing was going to happen to me."
"That's sweet," Harry murmured, allowing the familiar melancholic ache of wishing his parents had been alive while he was small to fill his chest.
He nodded and continued, "When I got older, when Voldemort came back, my parents were terrified. But it was still the thing that they promised me; they might not always be the smartest person in the room, they might not be the bravest, and they probably weren't going to play the hero. But no matter what, we always stay together; none of us run away. We protect ourselves and we protect each other. That's what a family does."
Harry nodded slowly, "I'm glad that you had that."
"Me too," Draco agreed, "for all that not running was difficult, I was glad to have their love and support." He took Harry's hand in his and moved so that he was kneeling in front of the other man, looking up at him.
"Draco," Harry whispered, eyes filling with tears, "Don't."
He squeezed his hands, "This is either the bravest or stupidest thing I've ever done," he said, laughing nervously, his hands trembling where they held Harry's. "Maybe both."
"Draco," he said, voice catching on his tears.
"I may not be the wisest man you'll ever meet," he started. "And I probably won't be a hero that swoops in at the last moment and saves the day. But Harry," he said softly, bringing the other man's hand to his mouth and pressing kisses to his knuckles, "I promise to always stay. I promise that no matter what happens, I won't run away."
"I-"
"I know," he continued, "that you think you're better off alone. I know that you are afraid, and rightly so, of the pain and suffering that love has caused you. But I don't want to live my life without you by my side, and," he took a deep breath and braced himself, "I don't think that you want to live without me either."
"Of course I don't," Harry whispered. "I love you."
"Marry me?" he asked again. "It's okay to be afraid," he added, "But I can only prove that I'm not going anywhere if you let me."
And really, he couldn't even imagine his life without the other man at this point. When he thought of his future, the one constant was Draco Malfoy. He wanted a future with him so badly that he felt like it took up all of the space in his chest when he allowed himself to think about it. "Are you sure you want me?" he asked softly.
Draco laughed and Harry watched as two tears slipped down his cheeks, "Harry," he said, "don't be ridiculous. Of course I want you."
"You're in for a lifetime of reassuring me," he said. "I'm a lot-"
"I want you," Draco said. "You're not hard to love."
His eyes filled again with tears that spilled over as he choked on a sob, his heart cracking open.
Draco leaned up and pulled Harry into his arms, "Oh, darling," he whispered, kissing his temple as he held him and rocked him like he was small. "You're not hard to love," he repeated, "Loving you doesn't cost me a lot; it costs me nothing compared to what loving you gives me," he added. “I fall more in love with you every day, every piece of yourself that you give me. I love all of you.”
"Draco," Harry cried, his fingers curling in the other man's jumper. "I love you," he managed. "Yes," he whispered. "Yes, if you'll still have me."
With a little laugh that sounded like part of a sob, Draco nodded, "yes," he murmured. "Yes, of course I'll have you."
"You're going to have to tell me that a lot," he said, pulling back so that he could search Draco's eyes, "that you aren't going anywhere, that nothing will take you from me."
Nodding, Draco said, "Malfoys are remarkably like cockroaches, we're very good at surviving things that we aren't supposed to. I'm not going anywhere, love," he promised.
"Okay," he whispered, not really sure he believed him but willing to let him prove it.
"Come inside," Draco offered softly. "Let me be with you, let me hold you," he murmured, kissing Harry's cheek. "Let me love you."
He nodded and let Draco lead him inside, let him whisper his promises into his skin. Harry allowed him to see all of him, his fears and his vulnerability. And he let Draco stay.
He continued to let Draco stay, let Draco have all of him, until the day that they both died.

I Can’t Believe You’re Mine
Tumblr media
Keegan x reader
CW: nothing pure fluff
X
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was a glorious, colorful autumn.
We'd just left the coffee shop. When we walked by, she giggled and pulled me inside, saying, "C'mon, let's be a basic couple and get some pumpkin spice!"
I don't like coffee. I never really have. But when she handed me my cup and looked into my eyes while I tried it, it was the best thing I'd ever tasted.
My hand still tingles where she grabbed it.
As we walked through the park with our drinks, a drizzle began to fall she pulled out an umbrella from her bag, I pulled up my hood and hunched my shoulders.
"Don't be silly," she giggled, pulling me under the umbrella with her. I couldn't help but laugh too, her laugh is infectious.
As the sun started to shine again, she pulled me down to sit on a bench. She beamed down at me, and I could only gaze back adoringly.
"So, Keegan..." She began. I knew this tone of voice, it's dangerous.
"Who do you like?" She whispered, and I looked away. I wanted to say, 'you, you, a thousand times you. You're the only one I can ever think about. You're gorgeous and sweet and funny and...'
Instead, I shrugged my shoulders and looked down at my cup.
She looked at me with a cautious smile.
 "If I tell you mine, will you tell me yours?"
"Okay," I say.
"The person I like...is you."
I drop my drink.
"I've been wanting to tell you for a while though. I know you're not interested in me, but I-"
 I put my hand over her mouth.
She looks at me in surprise.
 I take a deep breath.
 "Y/n, I-"
 My voice catches in my throat.
She removes my hand from her mouth and leans in a tiny bit closer. "What is it?" She asks, looking concerned.
Because I can't seem to form the words, I can tell her how I feel the only way I can.
Before I can lose my courage, I lean forward, pressing my lips to hers. After her momentary shock fades, she kisses me back; as her lips move against mine it's like there's fire in my veins.
Her hands gently cup my face as mine timidly grab her by the waist. She pulls me deeper into the kiss, running her tongue along my lips and nearly making me moan.
I think, "I can't believe this is happening."
We finally break apart when we're both completely breathless. She tilts her head so our foreheads are touching. "Wow." She whispers.
I nod in reply.
"Keegan- so, does this mean..." She stammers. This is the first time I've ever seen Y/n at a loss for words. I feel a bit proud of myself.
Finally getting the courage, I grab her hands, pulling her to her feet.
 "Y/n," I pause.
 "Will you be my girlfriend?"
She squeals, jumping up and down in that way that I always thought was simply adorable but was never able to tell her.
 So I tell her now.
 "You're adorable."
I've never seen Y/n blush before either, but she does. She pulls me into a hug, and I rest my head on her shoulder.
"So, is that a yes?" I whisper against her skin, and she giggles, grabbing my hands and spinning herself around. "Of course, that's a yes, silly!" She laughs.
"Good," I say. "Because now I can do this again."
I press my lips to hers, and it's like everything else in the world fades. Over and over, I keep thinking, "I can't believe you're mine."
I'm still thinking, "I can't believe you're mine" the next year when we move in together.
I think "I can't believe you're mine" as she walks down the aisle on our wedding day.
But the biggest "I can't believe you're mine" is when she holds our daughter for the first time.
I didn't think it was possible to love someone more every day, but Y/n proved that wrong.
"Keegan? What do you want to name her?" She asks, both girls looking up at me with big, beautiful eyes.
"Autumn," I say, and she beams in agreement.
 "Autumn" she whispers and kisses her little head.
And that's not the first, nor the last, of many, many, "I can't believe you're mine."

Xdinary Heroes When they get Jealous
Tumblr media
Requested by @mirohlayo, thanks for the request!
Summary: What happens when our 6 Heroes get jealous?
Warnings: Mentions of arguing, Jealousy (Obvi), some mentions of harassment, Language, some PG-13 stuff.
Scenario: Boyfriend AU, Romance, Angst, fluff at the end
Also Happy New Year lovelies!!!!
Gunil:
Tumblr media
You should probably just expect this exact face from him
Gun-il would be PISSED
He sees another person flirting with you
They're dead
He's gonna become super clingy to you
Calling you every pet name in the book
Just to let this person know
You are already spoken for
The person will eventually get the hint
But now he's slightly hurt by you
And it's making him mad all over again
You two will have to talk it out
"Come on Y/N that person was totally flirting with you!"
Its gonna end up in an argument
But then when you see how hurt he is
You realize that you were in the wrongs
And you gently wrap your arms around him
Gun-il wraps his arms around your waist tightly
Holding you like he's gonna lose you
But you won't let that happen
Jungsu:
Tumblr media
Jungsu can be super petty when he wants to be
(For this scenario he is)
So when he sees someone talking to you
Making you laugh
He's gonna give you the silent treatment
He's gonna let you finish your interesting conversation with this person
But after that
No words come out of Jungsu
"Jungsu are you listening?"
...
Nothing
All the way home
He's as silent as the grave
He wants to you know just how angry he is
but I feel like the silent treatment is also his way of biting his tongue so he doesn't say something he'll regret later
Finally you ask him if he's mad about something
And he just shrugs his shoulder
"Is it about who I was talking to earlier?"
Another shoulder shrug
"Oh my god Kim Jungsu you're so ridiculous!"
Now he's slightly glaring
"That's my cousin you idiot!"
"Wait really!?"
It speaks...
"Yes!" You laugh
Well now he feels kind of stupid
Gaon:
Tumblr media
Now I've said before that Jiseok looks like a really scary guy when he's pissed off
(I still stand by it)
And he was really pissed off
This person had been trying to make a move on you all night now
He was trying really hard to not let it bug him
But he finally had enough
He walked over and pulled you up from the chair and slid his arm around your waist
"Sorry friend... this one's taken" he smiled with a slight smirk
(oof)
He's feeling a lot of emotions right now
Anger
Sadness
Hurt even
Jiseok would be an emotional mess when you two got home
"I mean what were you thinking!?" he would snap
"I'm sorry Jiseok I thought they were just being nice, I told them over and over again that I was here with my boyfriend"
"Which is why you shouldn't have talked to them in the first place"
You gave Jiseok some time to cool off
You never intended to hurt him
Jiseok eventually accepts your thousand and one apologies
But he doesn't want people to take what's his
Ode:
Tumblr media
With this picture alone you should know what's coming
I wouldn't want to mess with Oh Seungmin
I feel like it's the last thing you should do
Someone should tell that to the person who kept hitting on you
Seungmin had stepped outside for a second to take a phone call
and someone thought they could just come up and start hitting you up
You tried to ignore it
but then they tried to put a hand on your leg
Just as Seungmin came back inside
Boy is fuming
He's gonna grab the person's hand that's resting on your leg
and give him a piercing glare
"Didn't your mom ever tell you not to touch things that don't belong to you?"
(Whew... I need a moment....)
Now he's really mad
He drags you away to a spot where it's only you two
And you can't deny that you're finding his jealous side extremely attractive
Now there's tension
(Yes that kind of tension)
He's gonna kiss you like there's no tomorrow
To remind you who you belong to
(I'll leave the rest to your imagination ;) )
Junhan:
Tumblr media
This wasn't supposed to happen
Hyeongjun introduced you to one of his friends
(Not any of the band members)
But he introduced you
and here was his best friend flirting with you
Hyeongjun doesn't know what to do
He's seriously conflicted
He doesn't want to show he's jealous
But he can't just sit here and let his friend flirt with his lover
You couldn't tell that your boyfriend's blood was boiling
in fact you couldn't really tell his friend was flirting
Finally Hyeongjun looks at his phone
"Ah Jagiya it's time to get back! The guys need me for practice"
He's giving you a look
One you don't think you've ever seen
Did he just call you Jagiya?
He takes your hand and pulls you away from the scene
Holding your hand tightly in his
Jun... are you okay?"
"I'm fine.."
You stop in your tracks and look at him
"Han Hyeongjun... are you jealous?"
"Well how could I not be!? My friend has always been a better flirt and he can get anyone he wants!"
You walked up to him and kissed his cheek
"True... but he can't get me... because I already belong to someone"
Jooyeon:
Tumblr media
They say the first stage of grief is denial
Well it's also the first stage of jealousy
And boy was Jooyeon in it
You introduced him to an old friend of yours
Who also happened to be an ex boyfriend
But the break up was mutual
And you two decided to be friends
So why in the hell would an ex boyfriend be flirting with their ex lover?
These were the thoughts that were running through the maknae's head
You were his now
There's no way he's flirting with you
His mind was going all over the place
So bad he missed half the conversation
Including the question your ex boyf- I mean your friend, asked him
"Sorry what?" He asked
"I asked how long have you and Y/N been dating?"
"Ah... A couple of months now"
He starts mentioning how long you and him were together and all the stuff you guys did together and all the funny things that would happen on your countless amounts of dates
This was really starting to piss Jooyeon off
And it takes a lot to piss him off
You can tell Jooyeon is starting to get uncomfortable
Far from it
He's just getting irritated
So you say goodbye to your friend
And as soon as you two get home
Jooyeon captures your lips in his own
You melt into the kiss
"Sorry if that made you uncomfortable Joo, I didn't think he'd do that"
"Lets just forget about it" he whispers as he catches you in another kiss.
(My heart is beating so fast rn!!!)
Welp! That's it for that one! Feel free to leave in the comments or dm me if you have any requests for both group HCs or individual member's HCs! Happy New Year! Let's keep supporting our heroes and showing them our love! Fighting!

Author’s Note: any and all comments are appreciated <3

When you enter the prison, your hopes are crushed. Each cell is sectioned off with a golden shimmering wall that looks like it will hurt if you touch it. The guards throw you into the cell before putting up the golden walls. The room is white and bare, and you're all alone in it. Anger bubbles inside your chest as you throw a ball of fire at the wall. It only explodes, and there is no damage to the wall. You walk over to it and put your hand on it, only to jerk back in pain.
"Shit," you whisper and fall to the ground in defeat.
The cell you're in is dipped to the ground so that there is a raised border around it. It's a big enough border that you can rest comfortably on it without touching the walls. How the hell are you going to get out of here now? There is no one who is going to help you, and no one knows where you are. Natasha saw you get ripped away from Earth, but who did she tell? Fury and Tony wouldn't know where to look for you because they don't know life exists outside the Solar System. Fury does, but how is he going to know you're here? You could fight your way out, but then you'd be no better than Markus.
All kinds of creatures are locked in their own prison cells--some with roommates and some alone. At least they have someone to talk to. What are you going to do in a prison cell that has nothing in it? Your question is answered when Thor and Loki come to visit you. They take a seat on the steps leading up to your cell, and you look at the brothers sadly.
"Come here to berate me and tell me how bad I am?"
"No, I'm here because I need more information," Thor answers.
Loki doesn't answer you, just sits down next to his brother. You look at Thor and raise one eyebrow dismissively.
"What kind of information?"
"After the battle, I did my best to research Xenia just in case they came back for another fight. How are you alive? The battle happened a thousand years ago."
You look at Loki and he squirms slightly under your gaze. It's like he's uncomfortable with you being here.
"How are you alive? You must be thousands of years old." You pause and take a deep breath before continuing. "The serum they injected me with slowed my aging rate close to zero. Xenians live for three hundred years, maybe four. I am going on a thousand, and I still have a lot more to go."
"Father says Xenia is a bad planet. I remember the battle well."
"The planet is a beautiful one with calm waters, a thriving ecosystem, and good nature. It's the people who were bad. Markus was bad. He had everyone wrapped around his finger because he was the CEO of a very well-known company that practically bought out all the others," you say, but pause with a sigh. "I'm sorry Markus took the Tesseract. As far as I know, it's--" You can't reveal that it might still be on Earth because then they might wage war to get it back. "I'm just sorry, okay?"
"What are your powers?" Loki asks. You and Thor look at him, and he shrugs. "I'd like to know what threats might come our way."
"I'm no threat to you or your home. I am a shapeshifting Avatar. I can control the four major elements--fire, water, air, and earth, and shift into any living creature. I can also create portals to anywhere in the world. I was tested with the Tesseract and have gained that ability. This whole thing is a pain in the ass, but it's my duty to do right by it. I mean no harm to all Asgardians. I wasn't meant to be here. You have to believe me."
"I will do what I can," Thor declares.
He gets up and leaves you and Loki alone. Now that his brother is gone, Loki doesn't have him to fill the awkwardness between you two. You don't know why it is, considering you remember a lot more about him than you thought. Apparently, you two were close. You're not going to mention that now because you don't know Loki now. He could get angry or something, and you don't want more shit piled on your shoulders.
"I remember you from the battle," you reveal, and his eyes snap to yours. He seems scared at your confession, but you don't know why. "You were in the vault when Markus stole the Tesseract. You look exactly the same. You must not age normally, either."
Loki doesn't answer because he is busy processing your words. When he realizes the weight of your words, he visually relaxes at the relief. Why does he feel relief? Would he feel relief or fear when you tell him you know about him after Markus left you on Asgard? You're not sure if it's a memory or a dream, so you're not going to say anything to him. Instead of answering you, he gets up without a word. He leaves your side, and you watch him go with a frown. 
Now it's just you, and all you have left to rely on is Thor. You're not even sure he can get you out of here, much less get you out of Asgard.
Thor must have some pull on Asgard because he managed to get you out of your cell. You stand before the King and Queen of Asgard in the throne room with Thor by your side. Loki is nowhere to be found, but you're not going to dwell on it.
"I will allow you one—and only one—chance to leave Asgard and never return."
"Yes, sir. I will be gone in the morning. I never meant any harm to you or to your people. I have no quarrel... I never did... not even before. I was kidnapped and stolen from my life to serve Markus. I'm truly sorry for the pain he has caused."
"Why don't you stay the night?" Frigga offers, wrapping a welcoming arm around your shoulder.
"That's not necessary. I don't want to intrude."
"It's not intruding if I ask you, my dear. Come on. I will show you to your room." 
You take one last look at Odin before you leave the room. Thor stays behind to talk to his father while Frigga takes you to your room. The guest room is also golden with sheets made of the finest silk and curtains that shimmer in the light. Everything inside the room is either marble or granite, and the bed is king-size. It's too fancy for you but you have a feeling Frigga won't take no for an answer.
"Please make yourself comfortable. There are fresh pajamas in the drawer for you to wear."
"I really do appreciate all of this, Your Majesty."
"Please, call me Frigga."
"Okay... Frigga. Thank you."
"You're welcome. I'll see you in the morning."
She leaves you alone in the room. You thought you would never come back here, and here you are staying inside the castle for the night. All you wanted was to go home and you can't even accomplish that. The pajamas are in the second drawer of the dresser, so you take those out and quickly change into them. You're folding your clothes when you hear a knock on your door. 
"Come in."
Thor enters your room carefully as if he doesn't know if he should be here or not. You give him a kind smile and put your own clothes away.
"I'm glad Father allowed you to be out of those cells."
"If you're glad, I'm ecstatic," you chuckle. You take a seat on the edge of the bed, and Thor joins you. He's sitting so close to you that his knee touches yours. "I just want to thank you."
"For what?"
"For being so kind to me. Knowing our history, and you still fought to keep me out of the cells. I don't even know you."
"It's alright. You didn't cause the war. I remember it quite vividly. Bodies were everywhere--some of Asgard and others not. I remember--"
He stops himself, and you move in closer as if that will get him to tell you what he was thinking.
"What do you remember?" you whisper.
"I remember you and how lost you were. What Markus did was unforgivable, and I'm truly sorry that you got caught up in the middle of it."
Thor turns his head to look at you, and it registers in your brain just how close you two are.
"I'm okay now," you mutter.
Maybe it's how close you two are. Maybe it's the way he's looking at you. Maybe it's the fact that he saved you from spending all your time in the prison cells indefinitely. Whatever the reason, you feel a sudden wave of lust wash over you for the God. Humans have studied Norse Gods all throughout the world to various different degrees. They all describe Thor as being this mighty and powerful God, but they never describe just how attractive he is. He has dark blue eyes, a neatly trimmed beard, bulging muscles, and such a soft voice for someone so powerful.
"Good," he mutters back.
The attraction between you sparks heavily, forcing one of you to make the first move. There is nothing going on between you emotionally. You have no idea who he is or what he's done in his life, but there is a physical attraction between you. All it takes is being at the right place at the right time, and then everything else falls into place.
Thor makes the first move and he presses his lips on yours. All it takes is that one little action and the rest of the night is laid out perfectly for you. It might be cliche, but you feel sparks of passion as soon as your skin makes contact with his. Considering he's the God of Thunder, it makes sense you'd feel this way. You wonder what Loki's lips would feel like. Wait, why are you thinking of him when you have Thor right in front of you?
You reach up with your left hand to cup his cheek, but he grabs your wrist and pins you to the bed so that he is hovering over you. Damn, if he's going to play it this way, then you'll gladly submit to him. He grabs your right wrist to join your other one, and he slots himself in between your legs.
"Damn, you're really going for it, aren't you?" you chuckle when he pulls away from you.
"Don't pretend like you don't love it," he mutters.
He's right, but the last thing you're going to do is tell him that. He licks along the vein on your neck, latching onto the base of it near your collarbone. His hands slide down your body, hooking them underneath your legs. One of them grips your thigh and the other one slithers up your body underneath the nightgown that Frigga let you use. Since she only gave you a gown to wear, you don't have any undergarments on. Thor can practically feel how wet you are from where his hand is on your thigh.
Thor smirks and kisses down your body through the thin fabric. His lips ghost over your breasts, and your nipples stand to attention. He sinks to his knees right in front of you, but you're too far away for his liking. Grabbing your legs tightly, he pulls you into him so that your legs are dangling over the side of the bed. He bunches your nightgown around your waist so that your pussy is exposed to him.
The feeling of his eyes on your most sensitive area causes you to clench around nothing. You squirm from his gaze, and all he does is let out a low chuckle.
"So pretty and pink," he mutters.
"Thor, please do something," you beg.
"I like it when you beg," he grins. "Do it some more."
Arrogant men like him turn you off, but it sounds so sexy coming from his mouth. It's definitely the accent, but you give him what he wants just so he can give you what you want the most.
"I need your mouth on me, Thor. Please... I want to come all over that tongue. To watch you lick everything I have to offer."
Your words turn him on, and instead of teasing you like how he planned on doing, he dives right. He hooks your legs over his shoulders so that he can have better access to your dripping pussy. He licks one thick stripe up your slit, gathering the juices that have leaked out of you. He wraps his tongue around your clit and sucks hard, causing you to let out an unexpected squeal.
"Fuck!"
He moves his tongue back down to your entrance and shoves his tongue in without warning. One hand keeps your thighs open while the other rests on your lower stomach so that his thumb can work over your clit. You don't want to be too loud in fear that anyone in the castle can hear, but it's hard to be quiet when Thor's doing what he's doing. 
He licks you from wall to wall, swirling it around to taste every inch of you. He has a longer tongue than you thought he had, but it's a most pleasurable assumption. You've never been so happy to be so wrong about something. His thumb rubs hard circles around your clit, feeling the small nub throb from the pressure.
You must not have had sex in a long time because he can feel you approach the edge by how you're trying to clench around his tongue to keep him in longer. Either that or you orgasm quickly. If you're going to stay in the castle for more than a day, he definitely wants to see how much he can get you to orgasm in an hour. 
After all, he's never been the one to disappoint.
He pinches your clit and rolls it around between his fingers, feeling you right at the edge. He gives a single swish of his tongue, and you're toppling over the edge.
"Thor!" you drag out his name, arching your back.
Your hand flies to the back of his head, and you hold him there while you ride out your orgasm. Your legs shake from how intense it is, and he licks every drop you have to give him. When he pulls away from you, his beard is glistening with your orgasm. Shit, he looks so hot grinning at you like that.
"Fuck," you whisper. 
He crawls up your body and kisses you hard, shoving his tongue into your mouth so you can taste yourself on him. He rips the nightgown off you and tosses it behind him, not caring where it landed. He's hard as a rock in his pajamas, and you roll your hips over him to egg him on.
"Naughty girl. Do you want more?"
"Yes, please," you beg. 
He stands up to his full height and grips your waist, flipping you over so that you're now laying flat on your stomach. He pulls your hips to meet his, your ass now sticking in the air for him while the rest of your body is smushed into the sheets below. He strips himself free of his pajama bottoms, his hard cock bouncing free. You peek over your shoulder to see him stroking himself, and your pussy clenches at the thought of having his cock inside you. Thor is a big man in general, and even his hand can't fit all the way around him.
You're going to have a lot of fun with this man. Maybe staying on Asgard isn't going to be such a bad thing. You spread your legs further to entice him, and he takes the bait. He runs the tip of his cock through your folds before sliding himself in. He doesn't exactly take it slow, but he isn't slamming into you. It's the first time you two have been together, so he understands he needs to give you some time to adjust. 
However, he isn't waiting too long. Your pussy flutters all around him, and he begins to move. In and out, slowly at first. When he knows you can take more, he picks up the pace. You're mewling and clawing at the bedsheets below you, pushing against him to get him to go deeper. He feels your need and lust for him, and he's going to give you exactly what you want. 
He grips your hips and holds you steady before slowly pulling all the way out and slamming right back in. 
"Fuck! Thor!" you scream, pushing your head into the sheets deeper so that your voice is muffled. 
He keeps the brutal pace, pounding so fast that the only thing that can be heard from inside the room is both of your pants, your drawn-out moans, and skin slapping against skin. Pleasure stems from your pussy and shoots out in every direction, numbing your whole body in the most delicious of ways. You can't come without some sort of clit stimulation, so with the hand you can move, you rub your clit hard and fast to try and keep up with his pace.
"Fuck," you groan, "I'm going to come. Please don't stop."
"Come for me Lady Y/N," he orders.
You don't know why but hearing that name come from his lips is the hottest thing you've ever heard (or at least, at the moment). You clench hard around him, but he still finds a way to shove himself deeper into you. He taps your g spot from behind, and the dam breaks. You and Thor come together at the same time, feeling both of your orgasms mix together inside of you. Your body shakes from how intense it is, reminding you for the next couple of days of where Thor has been. 
His thrusts begin to slow down until he is finished, stopping completely. He pulls out do you and watches as the evidence of your night drips out of your pussy and down your thighs. He scoops what he can with his index finger, and you roll over tiredly. You haven't had a man tire you out like this in a while, and it shows. Thor presents his finger to you, and you eagerly take him between your lips. You suck and lick every drop of both your orgasms, smirking when he pulls away.
"How many orgasms can you have in a night?" he asks cockily.
"Why don't you find out?"
You're thankful you don't have to leave until the morning.

I want you to hold an image of in your head, a skyscraper the towering floor and numerous panes of glass windows climbing up it's side.
The time is early morning and the sun is climbing over the mountains in the distance. As it crests the peaks its light kisses the windows with its light turning the monolith into a beacon of light and modern beauty. Please keep picture in hand while I change the focus for a moment.
Imagine a bar of rich white chocolate that someone saw fit to spread powdered cherry blossom into while it was mixing. The sweetness of the chocolate dancing with the floral sensation it a flavor you could only call blissful. The second it touches the taste buds it turns into an almost intoxicating ambrosia. A precise and perfect blend that turns into the memory of spring on your tounge. Set that aside to if you will for I have another sensation to tell you about.
The third and final experience I want to relay is the feeling of water wrapped all around you in a cool lake after a blisteringsummer day. The gentle calm of its embrace that all the worries and knots seem to wash away as float in the center.
Now take the feeling of that water soft, and refreshing, the taste of the chocolate so sweet and light, and the image of the sun bouncing of the glass so incandescently beautiful and wrap them all into one spectacular person and you will begin to understand the love of my life.
That wonderful divine love of mine with a smile brighter than sunlight reflected and amplified by a thousand thousand panels of crystalline glass, a kiss as sweet and addicting as Cherry blossom chocolate, and a touch so soft it can only be compared to tranquiline water is the newest and most alluring wonder of the world. So brilliant do they stand I can only call the love I feel for them a sensation that I can't put into words properly.
I hope the examples I gave above have helped to translate this fire in my veins to the best of my abilities and explain the new starstruck expression I have been wearing ever since I first saw the person who gives new purpose and meaning to my life, and if it's has failed then you have my deepest regards good reader.
Goodbye and Goodluck, may you find a love even half as inconceivable as the one I feel now, and thank you for indulging me in taking this excuse to write about my muse.

Donna’s Wednesday Radio Show Prompt List #19
Tumblr media
It’s that time again! The Wednesday Radio prompt list!
Please check the updated character list on my pinned post to see who I am writing for before submitting a prompt!
Also do not forget to put the entire prompt into your ask!
I wasn't looking for someone that night
If I was dying on my knees You would be the one to rescue me
Look who's digging their own grave
Don't come back knockin' at my door
That you could fall in love with the first sight
Do you expect me to believe that you've changed?
We loved and got lost in the moment
She's gone in the flash of a light
We took a polaroid, I put it in my wallet
I'll be the one to keep you warm and safe
When you're under fire I will cover you
we'll go deeper than the ink Beneath the skin of our tattoos
Until we say goodbye on our dying day
It's like a knife that cuts right to my soul
I was drunk and it didn't mean a thing
Just another morning With shaky hands, pounding head
I love the things you hate about yourself
Oh, if the sky comes falling down, For you There's nothing in this world I wouldn't do
I guess I just lost my husband I don't know where he went
Five years, twenty years, come back It will always be the same
Don't touch the sleeping pills, they mess with my head
Try to leave, but I can't stand Start to think that I'm better off dead
We smoked cigarettes, man, no regrets
it's been a long night and the mirror's tellin' me to go home 
You try to tell me that we're so deep in love Well, if we were, then why did we fuck it up? 
I wanna get in trouble, My ex will start a fight
A thousand people at the station And in a second you slipped out of view
Out on the front doorstep, drinking from a paper cup
Told myself, "I can't go back ever again"
How can I trust you after what I've been through?
Thrashing the covers off
It's dangerous, the things we do
you'll drink yourself to death
It scares me half to death
I'm alright, I'm just fine
the tip of the needle Is taking over you
She got her hair pulled back 'cause the sweat's drippin' off of her face 
We've taken different paths And travelled different roads, I know we'll always end up on the same one when we're old
You leave because you're certain Of who you want to be
Begging for another beautiful sin
 it ain't so bad if I wanna make a couple mistakes
I gave you life, I gave my all, You weren't there, You let me fall
Don't tell me to be strong
lotta years went by with my hands tied up in your ropes
My life started the day I got caught Under the covers With secondhand lovers
Temptation, creeping up on me Gets under my skin, won't let me be
Your kisses burn into my skin
I tell myself I don't care that much But I feel like I die 'til I feel your touch
I tell myself you don't mean a thing
I got a brand new attitude And I'm gonna wear it tonight
Your kiss is my addiction
Told you before that love isn't enough
But it's the sweetest pain Burnin' hot through my veins
Are you worth the risk?
It might be criminal, but still I just can't quit
I don't need to be loved by you
See my lips on her mouth, everybody's talking now, 
And you miss 'em like you miss no other

Sorry to pop in again so soon, but I just had to return and offer a little more praise.
Okay so after reading the 3rd part and letting all of that settle on my soul - and getting over my initial "omg I fricking love this fic" excitement - I just need to say I am floored by your storytelling prowess. Your description of things are so immaculate that there's no question as to what you mean and how that feels/looks/sounds etc. Lines like "Barbie feels like her insides have been scooped out and replaced with fragile things. She has to move slowly, breathe carefully, to keep from jarring them, because they’ll grow stronger but they haven’t yet." Perfect. Anyone who's been there knows exactly how that feels like and knows you've described it to a T. I love how you were able to take complicated things like that and put words to them.
Your characterizations are spot-on. Ken saying he felt "spinny"? Like yeah, I could totally hear it in my head, and it was definitely believable he said that. But more than that though, you helped us readers understand what these two were *feeling* and did so without sacrificing who we saw in the movie. It's like I was a doll experiencing humanity for the first time too, in all its good and bad.
The detailing of how they feel about being human - "but she still wakes up with her flesh and blood heart beating too fast and her flesh and blood skin sticky with cold sweat (yuck)" - and how they're coping with it - "Gloria feels her stomach lurch when she sees his hands, cuticles and nails picked at and chewed on, every imperfection worried at until they’re impossible to ignore. Barbie has the same problem, but a spinning ring and a flawless manicure every time she gets her hair touched up have mostly taken care of it." - are beautiful in their own way. I really can't get over how you've really helped the readers put themselves in their shoes and feel as they feel in their newfound humanity.
Not to mention how you've developed their platonic soulmate AU which I am HERE FOR. I love it so much, like that last part with their foreheads touching had me in tears. And the angst - my word! - also had me in tears too. Those poor babies.
Anyway, as I said before: you're a genius with wonderful gifts, and thank you for sharing them with us. I will definitely be keeping an eye on your Ao3 to see any more posting in the future if you so choose to do so. But please, please may we have at least one little thing where Ken gets some happiness please? I think he's earned it, but that's just me.
I'll leave you alone now, but I just really needed to share this. Thanks again <3
Thank you SO much for this and I am not put upon at all :D I love getting compliments about my work lol so definitely don’t apologize
Genuinely thank you, though, because I’m so glad you feel that way about the fics. I’m trying very hard to convey the humanness vs. dollness of it all, and to have the characters talk and act like themselves, just in this really weird and often sad situation. I’m also glad the spinny lines worked lol. I was like “how would Ken describe the feeling of spiraling?” and that’s what I got.
AND YEAH, someone said in the comments on the first fic that it was giving dark soulmate AU vibes, and I was like yayyy love that that was noticeable, and I’ve kept leaning on it because I think it’s so interesting. (Though the darker aspects have faded.)
And lmao I swear Ken will have a good time soon!!! I genuinely started feeling bad for him at a certain point in the last fic of the trilogy and I was like “man, I need this guy to pet a horse or something and possibly not even cry once within three thousand words.” But he’s going through the very beginning of the adjustment period in that trilogy, so it is Not easy. But again—things will look up for him now!!! I have plans!!!
(I do also have plans for more heavy angst, but my threat of a fic where Ken just overall has a great time still stands. I actually have plans for it to maybe be the first fic in the vignette collection that will probably be the last entry in this series. But plans change, so don’t quote me on that. Things WILL look up, though.)
(Also, obligatory link to the series: something in me in you.)

More Than Friends
Tumblr media
Summary: The young Yaksha decides to join you on a trip to Mondstadt.
Pairing: Xiao, reader
Warning(s): none
Requested: nope
Songs: none
Xiao knew that one day his karmic dept would catch up to him. He just didn't like the fact that every day, he started feeling on edge. They started out as small illusions and taunting whispers that would mock him. In a way, he agreed with what the voices told him. The hideous things they whisper to the adeptus were enough to drive someone mad. He knew one day that the poison within him, the guilt, his karmic dept would soon swallow him whole.
He was ready for it to happen, but then he happened to meet a traveler from another world. Wherever they hailed from was no interest to him as he had other more important tasks to handle.
He was fine. He had to hold back the darkness for just a little longer. Just until he was sure that everyone in Liyue would be safe if he were to suddenly go away. As a Yaksha, it was his duty to be of service to the people of Liyue and the God that walked amongst the humans there. Battling demons was nothing new to him but he did it to keep others safe. Killing was no easy task to someone who hasn't held a weapon but to Xiao, he's trained himself to take a life - if not thousands to protect. It's been thousands of years and still the memories of the dreams he's eaten had always haunted him even now. Even when he was forced to, even if it's been several hundred years, Xiao will never forgive himself.
Xiao's amber eyes shift to look at the traveler, she was coming down a grassy hill with Paimon floating behind her. Though something catches her eyes and she quickly rushes over to a tree near him. He uncrossed his arms from his chest and walks over to see what she has found.
"Is that another sweet flower?" Paimon asked as she placed her hands onto her hips, seeming unimpressed.
"Yes." She answers as she places the flower in a small bag of herbs.
"Do we always need to pick those up when we come across them?"
"I can't pass up an opportunity. It's hard finding them sometimes." She said and looks over to Xiao with a small smile.
Her eyes were always so bright under the sun.
"Xiao, are you okay?" She asked as her fingers touched his shoulder. His hand moves to hold her hand for a moment and moves it off him before moving his hand to his side.
"Yes, I was merely thinking about something." He answers as he looks to them both.
"What about?" Paimon asked.
"It's nothing.." He said as they continued to make their way through Mondstadt. He only agreed to come with the traveler due to the fact that she would be alone. "Let's continue on. It'll take a while longer if we stay here." The two nod and followed on the path to Mondstadt.
Xiao let's his eyes wander before looking at (Y/n) as she walked over and picked up another sweet flower.
"Why are you doing that?" He didn't mean to ask but the question had slipped out.
"Do you really want to know?" To which he nods. "Okay.. When I had first came to this world. I had a habit of collecting flowers. But the first time I had made Almond Tofu I had accidentally put sweet flower into the dish." She chuckles as his eyes widen and his brow raised in question. "I know but I only realized my mistake after! On the plus side, you seemed to like it."
"It does make sense now." She looks at him confused. "Why you're dish always taste sweet. I didn't want to say anything about it."
"So do you like it?" She asked.
"It is.. passable as a dish."
"Yeah, but did you like it?" She asked again as she steps closer, making him look away to the side.
"Paimon would take that silence as a yes!" The two looked at the small flying person who held her hands behind her back with a smirk as she looked at the two. "Now, come on you two! Move you're butts! Paimon wants to make it in time to eat.." she floats on ahead of them.
"It's not fair when you can fly!" (Y/n) sighs.
"Are you really that tired?" Xiao questions catching her off guard.
"Only a little." She admits with a blush. He sighs trying to think of their options. He didn't want to stop. Paimon could float but she didn't have the muscle power to hold an entire human being. This left him with one option.
"I can carry you."
"What?" She looks over to him.
"Yes, I can. Don't tell me you think im incapable of such an easy situation. I'm an Adeptus, remember?" He reminds her.
"I know but I wouldn't want to bother you." She shakes her head with her cheeks becoming more and more flustered as he approached.
"This is no bother." He replies as he simply picks her up bridle style.
"But wouldn't it be better on you're back?" He rolls his eyes with a small sigh. His breath fans her bangs, his cool breath cooling off the heat from her skin.
"You would have less of a chance getting hurt if an enemy were to attack from the front. I would at least have enough time to put you down and attack." He explains and she's left in silence as she looks up at him as he starts to walk them to their destination. Aside from Liyue, he somehow found himself caring for the traveler more than he could understand.

Slowly; All At Once.
Summary: A moment of vulnerability brings about a confession in the form of eight words.
Author's Note: I can't help myself when it comes to these two. (:
***
Eddie fell in love with Steve the way you fall asleep; slowly, then all at once.
He'd be kidding himself to say he didn't know or hadn't paid attention. He knew exactly when, where, and what. . . And he was enchanted from that moment on. But what Eddie didn't expect was how hard it would be to tell him.
For Eddie, love wasn't instant the way it was for Steve. He hadn't looked in the frightened brown eyes of this man and decided right there that he was the one, he hadn't felt a skip in the routine pattern of his heartbeat or desired to know everything there was about him. In fact, Eddie hated him, despised him. If it were between accepting Steve's help or selling himself out, he'd have chosen the latter on a good day. But it wasn't a good day, and he had no choice. He was on the run from a town that hated him for a murder he didn't commit; Steve was merely the means to an end, his only hope in an otherwise hopeless world.
Truthfully, it wasn't until the portal in Lovers Lake.
Sitting there in the boat with Steve preparing to jump into the water like it was just another Saturday night, leaving him with Nancy and Robin to wait and see if he'd find the portal. And then he had, and Eddie was proud. But then he was dragged back down, and he disappeared beneath the surface, and Eddie's heart was in his throat and he didn't know why.
Nancy and Robin certainly didn't hesitate to follow him down, and Eddie couldn't just sit there with Steve probably drowning. He was terrified of what he would discover through that portal, all of it just seemed so. . .unbelievable. But he was more terrified of Steve dying alone. He didn't even like the guy, not really, not yet. Well, he liked him enough to follow the girls through the unknown.
And then they found him. Steve. Those things had him, the Demobats, they'd called them. And Eddie couldn't just let him die. His heart was in his stomach then, his hands gripped tight around an oar from the boat, and all he could think about was how they were gonna get out of there alive. All of them. And Steve.
Then it was over, the bats were either dead or gone, but Steve looked rough. So rough. The Demobats “took a pound of flesh,” he said, and he was weak from blood loss and Eddie was simply weak in the presence of greatness.
“Earth to Munson,” Robin says, snapping her fingers near Eddie's face. It's not unusual for him to zone out like this lately.
He shakes his head, blinking back to life. “Huh? What the fuck, Buckley? Get your fingers out of my face,” he growls, it's non-threatening.
She laughs and hands him a beer. “Here. I won't ask.”
Eddie isn't sure if he's grateful or not. He and Robin are sort of friends now, thanks to Steve. He still finds her rambling annoying and the weird way she talks about movies and girls she's into and boobs at a thousand miles a minute a bit off-putting. But, for the most part, he likes her. She is Steve's best friend, and Eddie loves her for that. Someone has to take care of Harrington when he's busy.
“So,” she says, “how's he been lately? Better?”
“You spend more time with him during the day than I do, why are you asking me?” He doesn't mean to be a dick about it; he's tired and worried about Steve and they don't talk about what happened. Not as often as they probably should. He sighs, takes a sip of his beer, and stares out at the lake. “I don't know, man. We don't talk about it. He says he's fine but I touch him and he freaks out, you know? And then it's like he's back there again. . . Like he's almost dying again.”
Eddie kicks himself for how pathetic he must sound. He doesn't hold Steve's feelings against him, he understands better than anyone what he's going through. But Eddie talks when he's having a bad day, and Steve doesn't.
He shakes his head. “He say anything to you?”
“Not really, but you know Steve, he takes care of everyone else before he worries about himself.” Robin shrugs. “Have you guys tried talking about it together? I mean, you went through the same thing. Maybe it'll help to know he's not alone. In his feelings, you know? And if he's still holding onto that, then there's gotta be a reason why. Maybe he's waiting for you to say something.”
“Maybe,” he says.
The sound of tires on gravel approaching the front of the house pull their attention from the lake to the back door. Moments later, Steve makes his way through the house and Eddie hears the familiar clink of his keys on the kitchen counter before he joins them on the patio.
“How was work?” he asks and flinches at the roughness in his voice. This shouldn't feel as weird as it does, it's just Steve coming home from work. They do this every day.
Steve sighs and sits on the ground beside Eddie's deck chair. Robin passes him a beer and he takes a moment to open it, relish in the aroma, and let the contents pour down his throat in the longest sip Eddie's ever seen him take. He wipes his mouth with the back of his hand.
“That bad?” Robin asks, intrigued. Amused.
“Buckley, every day I have to work with Keith by myself is a bad fucking day.”
Eddie grips onto the arms of his chair and his knuckles go white from the force. After everything that's happened, he hopes Steve will look into finding a new job. One that doesn't require working for a douchebag like Keith but despite the obvious downsides to the job, Steve thoroughly enjoys working at Family Video and Eddie supports him anyway. So on the bad days, he daydreams about punching Keith in his stupid face.
Steve's fingers find their way into the spaces between his and he relaxes into his chair. Damn it, Harrington. Let me be pissed off. Eddie thinks his anger is the only thing he has right now but it isn't, he has Steve. He flips his hand over so his palm is facing up and lets Steve take hold. Since that first night with his nightmares, this is as close as they come to touching these days and he figures Robin's right. . . Maybe they should talk.
And it's as if she's reading his mind when she stands from her seat, pours out the rest of her beer in the grass, and gives him a knowing look. Talk to him, she mouths. To Steve, she says, “See you tomorrow, dingus.”
“Robs, are you sure you don't want me to drop you off?” Steve asks, eyebrows furrowed as he watches her reach for the back door.
“Nah, it's 10 minutes.” She shakes her head gratefully. “Later, Munson.”
“Yeah, see you, Buckley.”
And with that, the Harrington-Munson backyard descends into silence.
***
It's a good three hours later before Eddie has any idea of what he wants to say.
He picks up the remote for the VHS player from the tiny makeshift end table beside him and presses PAUSE, effectively suspending John Bender in the middle of one of his many diatribes aimed at the four individuals he has the misfortune of being jailed in the library with on a Saturday morning. Eddie smiles sheepishly; The Breakfast Club has become one of his favourites, if not for the sole purpose of listening to Steve gush about his semi-likeness to the misguided misfit.
“Hey! What gives? We're at one of the best parts,” Steve protests, throwing his hands in the air.
Eddie breathes deep and it takes all he has not to chicken out of this conversation. He scratches his cheek nervously, watching Steve from the corner of his eyes. Now or never, Munson. It's a shitty pep talk, but it'll do.
He swallows. “I remember what it felt like,” he says timidly. “When its tail wrapped around my neck and suddenly I couldn't breathe. . . I was just there, on the ground, and there were dozens of teeth ripping into me. And I remember how dying felt.”
Their small living room is quiet except for the sounds of their breathing; Eddie's slow and uncertain, and Steve's shallow as if he were taken by surprise. Eddie tries to gauge his partner's reaction and finds himself at a loss. For all the ways he can usually read Steve like an open book, in this moment he senses the gap growing between them.
Steve recoils. He feels his heartbeat quicken, his breaths turn sharp and painful, and he feels reality around him fading into a distant dream.
Eddie knows this look; he's seen it before, too many times to count. He reaches for Steve's hand but he pulls away too quickly. Eddie is too invested in making this work to be offended. All that matters is Steve.
He hangs his head, hoping his next words come out right. . .
“I wasn't afraid, you know? Not until after. Not because I was going to die but because I didn't want to go without saying goodbye. Or without you knowing how I felt. That I knew what you went through and it was okay. . .you were okay.” He looks up to see Steve staring back at him with tears in his light brown eyes. He lifts his hand to his neck; he needs Steve to hear this, to understand it. “Sometimes it's like I can still feel it and if I think about it too long it feels like I'm right back at that night―” he pauses and reaches for Steve again.
This time he meets Eddie's hand halfway, his left one is around his neck mirroring his boyfriend's actions and Eddie knows he did it without thinking. He smiles softly. “Steve, if you can't― if you need more time to-to deal with all of this, then. . . I'll give it to you. I get it, I get you. But, man, you aren't alone. You don't have to carry this alone. Not anymore.”
Eddie isn't sure what he's expecting to happen, but he's certain it isn't what occurs in those next few moments as Steve launches himself across their small couch. He barely has time to brace for the impact or decide what to do with his hands before Steve's body settles against his.
“I wish I could forget. . .” Steve's voice is soft; if Eddie weren't paying attention he'd have missed it. “I want to forget how almost dying felt.”
Tears gather at the edges of the older man's eyes and he blinks them away. He presses a soft kiss against the crown of Steve's head and the light brown strands of his hair tickle Eddie's nose. No matter how hard it gets from tonight on, he knows they're in this. He is in this.
“Do you trust me, Stevie?”
“What kind of a dumb question is that?”
“Just answer it, do you trust me?”
He nods. “I trust you. Of course, I trust you, Eddie.”
As Steve looks up at him through his thick lashes, Eddie slides his right hand slowly up his arm and rests his palm lightly against his throat. Neither one moves or blinks, and Eddie hopes he isn't making a big mistake.
“Eddie?”
“Let me help you remember how living feels.”
The more he fought it, the harder he fell. Falling in love with Steve Harrington happened like falling asleep; slowly, then all at once. And Eddie Munson had never been happier to be wide awake.

ARIANA GRANDE X MERCEDES VARNADO LOVE STORY SMUT WARNING ⚠️ PART 15 of the continuation of the she's the one love story
Chapter 40 title: suprise
Arianas point of view
The past few weeks have been so incredibly tense between myself and mercedes and since she'd decided to keep whatever secret it is from me, I've been in a bad headspace and I trust her but I can't help but to doubt and we've always been intimate with each other and now all of a sudden, this one thing she can't tell me ,it worries me and it's shown in our relationship and we haven't been intimate with each other since then and I mean intimate in anyway: physically or emotionally and its not for lack of trying either, mercedes has taken me on dates ,we've made out, we've just hung around doing nothing at all and each time I've found myself thinking back to her keeping something from me
Her hands would be on the most sensitive parts of my body and I'd remember and just pull away cause how could I be intimate with someone who I'm having a hard time trusting "Ariana as a hard swat stings my arm and I frown at the source of it, Victoria's eyebrows raise, a hand on her belly "you're all up in the clouds while we're having a conversation says Victoria and I sigh "sorry yall, what were you saying says Ariana and while the conversation does continue for the most part, Victoria and Courtney watch me, obviously they know about what's been going on with me and mercedes since new York and honestly everyone can tell something is up
Me and mercedes haven't spent much, if any, time together since we landed in Florida, other than coming here for rehearsals we haven't even been in the same room and that didn't stop my girlfriend from having some flowers sent to my dressing room nor did it stop her from sending me an encouraging text message, emojis resembling the very actions she'd do if we were face to face: a hug, a kiss and a big dorky grin and admittedly she's done a good job of acting as if nothing is wrong, well not entirely, she hasn't completely disregarded it, obviously seeing as she isn't in here right now and everyone quiets when a knock sounds at the door and a crew member leans in and tells me I'm on in five
I stand up and get my finishing touches done before leaving out, Victoria is going to stay back and watch the performance from the comfort of the couch in my dressing room but Courtney follows out after me, claiming to want to go watch from the put just for fun and after my mic is put on and I'm given the go ahead, I go out onto the stage, being met with thousands of screams will never not be amazing, they chant my name ,'I love yous' thrown in there as signs wave "Miami ad another round of cheers and screams, I shake my head "welcome to the dreams come true tour says Ariana as positions starts to play and my dancers come out on the stage
Throughout the show while singing and dancing, I interact with the fans, me and a few of the dancers even lay out at the Edge of the stage just to mess with some of them who are in the pit, hours feel like minutes abd before I know it, I'm reaching my last song "I love performin for yall, oh my God as a soft giggle falls from my lips as I cross the stage and everyone cheers "I got one more song for yall, it's real special, are yall ready says Ariana and screams ,I smile "alright let's do it says Ariana and as soon as the pov starts to play the audience screams again and I end up smiling through the lyrics, singing this song, it being one of my favorites, means I get lost in it, my eyes slowly fall shut as I belt the lyrics out
Even though I'm pissed at her, I can't help but to imagine my baby as I sing ,just the way that she loves me in general is enough to make my heart sour out my damn chest and she's brought this incredible light into my life and I'm so grateful for her and whatever this is we're going through right now, I know it'll pass and the bridge comes and I open my eyes, taking in the waving bright lights as everyone vibes to the song "🎶I couldn't believe it or see it for myself, but I'm impatient but now I'm out here, fallin, fallin, frozen slowly, I won't keep you waitin(waitin) all my baggage fadin safely (my baggage fadin) and if my eyes decive me ,won't let them stray too far away
I wanna love me(ooh) the way that you love me (ooh) ooh, for all of my pretty and all of my ugly too, I'd love to see me from your point of view, I wanna trust me, ohh(trust me) the way that you love me, baby (trust me) cause nobody ever loved me like you do, I'd love to see me from your point of view (oh. Yeah and the cheers are insanely loud ,way louder than usual, with a smile I listen to everyone screaming and tilt my head ,looking at them point behind me "what as I chuckle softly and look back and one by one i watch as my friends and family start to come up on the stage, each and every one of them are holding a rose, the flowers alternating between periwinkle and white
All the white pov plays again ,this time softer and without lyrics and breaking from the line of people, my mom and Nonna come over to me ,a look sits in both of their eyes that I'd never seen before ,tears glistening in both sets of brown that are just like my own "sweetie as my mom reaches out to gently take my hand "I am so incredibly proud of you and I can't tell you how glad I am that you're so happy says Joan a d Nonna raises her hand, the appendage shaking a little and rests on my cheek "we love you so much says Nonna and emotions swell inside me, confusion being a main one "I love you both too ad I squeeze their hands
As they step away, going to join the line again, I look at the last person to come onto the stage, mercedes immediately smiles at me, briefly waving to the crowd who scream her name before stopping in front of me "aye says mercedes as she pulls a mic from seemingly out of nowhere "yall mind if a say a couple things before my set says mercedes and yet again they cheer, shouting that it's okay and I frown "mercedes wh- as my words fall short and my heart starts hammering in my chest as I watch her kneel abd she gives a nervous but genuinely loving smile "there is like an infinite list if things I could say to you right now, I can tell you and everyone here about my childish little crush on you since victorious
I can talk about how my dumbass forgot my own damn name when we met and my heart fluttered when you called me cute, instead of embarrassing myself, I'm gonna take a different route says mercedes "Ariana grande butera, forgive me for being corny but you are the light of my life. Literally, everything is so so much better with you, there isn't a single second since before I even met you, where your hard work, dedication, selflessness and just over all positivity doesn't inspire me says mercedes as she shifts a little and I know her knee is probably starting to hurt but she continues "meeting you and bring able to call you mine is more than I could've ever asked for, you were a blessing I didn't know I needed but now that I have you I don't ever plan to let you go says mercedes
The second I see a tear slide down her cheek, the dam breaks and a wave of tears cascade down mine "you are my one and only Ariana and as long as you'll have me I will make sure to be the person you deserve and I promise to always treat you as the queen you are and to love you unconditionally through all the good times and the bad says mercedes as she pauses to dig into her pocket, pulling out a small blue velvet box that gas the most gorgeous ring nestled inside of it
Tumblr media
E/c eyes lift back to mine and she bites her lip briefly before finishing "and all I ask in return is that you do me the honor of becoming my wife says mercedes
Mercedes point of view
I've been holding my breath since I kneeled in front of Ariana and I can feel my lungs starting to beg for air but I can't seem to think about that right now, no my focus is completely on Ariana and my eyes scan her tear stained face for the answer to my question before she even speaks it "yes, mercedes of course I want to be your wife says Ariana as she cries and once the words are spoken I breathe deeply and wrap my arms around her, her own arms wrap around my neck as I hug her as tightly as possible "I love you so fuckin much as I say breathily to her "I love you too says Ariana as she pulls away only for her lips to crash onto mine seconds later
Pulling away from the kiss after a minute or two ,I can't even stop the wide grin on my face, my eyebrow raises at Ariana and I lean down to her ear again "you think this secret was worth it says mercedes and Ariana rolls her eyes at me, smacking the back of her hand against my stomach "that is no way to treat your fiance miss grande says mercedes and the blush that rushes up her cheeks is adorable as always "you can just call me Mrs varnado says Ariana "oooo yall hear that, miss grande gon take my last name as I playfully say into the mic which just makes everyone lose it and as excited as they are, there's no way they're on a higher level than me
The rest of the concert goes by seemingly in a blur and with my mind focused on the fact that I'm engaged to Ariana, the love of my life, I work through my set like it's nothing, even getting my encore done and throwing my hand in the air, I speak into the mic "yall have been incredible, get home safe and have a goodnight says mercedes as their screams follow me offstage and I hear all the congratulations they shout which makes me chuckle and the second I step foot into my dressing room, a body wraps around me, lips crashing onto mine "hi baby says Ariana pecking my lips one more time "hi says mercedes and suddenly the door opens and smacks into my back, I curse and step away, glaring at who comes in
"Move ya ass, damn, get engaged and just go dumb huh says Anthony as he teases, a smile forming "I mean yeah sorta as i shrug, moving me and my fiance over to the couch and his presence is soon followed by all of our friends and Frankie is smiling so big I think his cheeks might burst "I knew you were gonna be my sister as he exclaims running over and throwing himself over me and Ariana "it's everything I've ever dreamed of Frankie as I tell him, pressing a big kiss to his cheek "ah ah, none of that says Ariana as she grabs my face, turning me away from Frankie and to her then kissing me "I am the only one who gets kisses tonight says Ariana as she glares at Frankie
Courtney and Victoria step in with expectant glances and Ariana jumps up, properly knocking Frankie onto the floor, to rush over to them and their squeals fill the room and me and Anthony make eye contact and shake our heads and I help Frankie up ,who goes over to the girls with a frown on his face then I step over to the vanity, Anthony following "they gon be like this for weeks I already know as I tell him, reaching into the drawer and pulling out the bottle of Remy I brought along with two small plastic cups and Anthony chuckles and takes the now filled cup from me "you up next boy, you ready says mercedes
My best friends eyes move to his girl and he smiles in a way that tells me the answer before his words do "honestly, I can't wait, had you not proposed tonight u think I might have as it's said jokingly but I know he's serious "what you got it on you as I ask tilting my head to catch his eye and instead of answering, he pulls it from his pocket shyly "aye as I smack his arm when he pockets it, to get his attention "do it at dinner says mercedes and before he can frown I continue "you said so yourself you can't wait and there's no reason my night can't be our night says mercedes and he watches me carefully for a minute making sure I'm serious then he nod "ight, ima do it says Anthony "wooo as I clap my hands together
The girls and everyone else look at me with raised eyebrows and amused smiles and with the perfect cover up I say "I'm engaged yall says mercedes and they cheer and Ariana comes over ,hands running up my chest to loop her arms around my neck "you ready to celebrate says Ariana "hell yeah, dinner and dessert as I wink and sge pulls me into a hungry kiss ,I can tell my words alone plus the excitement has affected her, her teeth dig into my bottom lip teasingly before she pulls away "oooo just wait as I mumble against her lips "aye horndogs ,let's go as Victoria calls ,everyone following after her out if the room
I pick up my bookbag, handing ari her purse and we leave out after making sure I have everything, we check her dressing room where her mom and Nonna are, both women are quick to stand and make their way over to us and nonnas hands cup my face "congratulations sweetie, here I was thinking you were holding out for me says Nonna as sge pulls me down to kiss my cheek "hey hey, bad Nonna says Ariana as she occupies my side, wrapping an arm around my waist and cupping my cheek, effectively getting me out of Nonnas hold ,her glare fixes on me "I thought I told you no kisses from anyone else says Ariana "I didn't do anything as I raise my hands innocently "you know Nonna can't help herself as I joke Making all three grandes laugh
Joan gives me a hug, one of those mom hugs that just warms you from the outside in "congratulations mercedes, I couldn't ask for anyone better for my ari says Joan "thank you Joan, I know I've never told you but you're like a mom to me and I appreciate how supportive of us you've been- how supportive of me you've been as I tell her watching as her eyes start to tear up and sge fans at her eyes "don't make me cry tonight too says Joan and I chuckle and hug her again, my phone ringing breaks the hug and I pull away with a polite smile, excusing myself, I step away from the women to answer "did you do it as samias voice shouts through the phone
"Girl what I tell you bout all that yellin as my mom snaps and I hear the little thump after so I know Samia got popped and I shake my head "aight ma don't kill her before the weddin says mercedes "YOU DID DO IT" and at this point I doubt Samia gon make it, she keep testin momma and once again she gets popped and I sigh "baby I'm proud of you as my mom chimes in to say "and you know your dad would be too, we always talked about how great you were going to turn out and not just with your music either sats mercedes mom and a knot forms in my throat that I swallow, taking a deep breath "I miss him every day ma says mercedes
"Me too but he's always with you ,he's with all of us says mercedes mom and I can hear her get a little choked up too "I love you momma and I promise ima see yall fa Thanksgiving and we gon celebrate the right way as I half joke which makes her laugh and I smile "I know you will, I love you and you better start callin me more, live in the same city and we barely talk says mercedes mom and a sigh falls from my lips, she's right I call but not nearly as often as I should have and I'm always running around doing something so I can't always go over there "Momma, I'm gonna make more of an effort, you know how much I care about you and Sam and there's no excuse as to why I haven't been by more says mercedes
When she speaks again I can hear the smile in her voice "I didn't sat that so you could beat yourself up sweetie, I was just teasing but I would like to see you more says mercedes mom "and you will as i look up to see Ariana smiling softly at me and I know they're ready to go "I gotta go though ma ,I'll call you tomorrow okay says mercedes "okay and yell Ariana I said congratulations and to xall me too says mercedes mom "will do as I pause then shout "bye Samia " just cause it'll irritate my mom and make Samia laugh and I hang up to the sound of my sisters laugh and my moms complaints and my girl-my fiance walks over to me, hands resting on my back and stomach "everything okay says Ariana as she whispers with sift eyes
Nodding I say "Momma said congratulations and that you betta call her says mercedes "of course I'm gonna call momma varnado says Ariana and from there we leave out, me carrying aris extra bag while she hitches a ride on my back, she claims her feet hurt and I'm not one to complain so and everyone splits into the SUVs waiting, Anthony, Frankie, vic and Courtney in the car with me and Ariana. With Anthony connecting to the Bluetooth, he plays a number of songs, ranging from what's poppin to what a man gotta do, all in celebration of me and Ariana and pulling up to the restaurant, I wait for the car to stop before getting out, I offer a hand to the girls and Frankie
Ariana slips her hand in mine ,leaning into my side with a seemingly permanent smile on her face "hey as I kiss the top of her head ,she looks up at me and I smile "I love you says mercedes I love you too baby says Ariana getting on her tippy toes, she kisses me and throughout dinner on the reserved terrace of the restaurant, many laughs are shared and like always Nonna and Joan tell me stories of Ariana who gets all blushy and embarrassed, Anthony saves her by throwin my ass under the bus ,telling her stories of all the stupid shit I've done "aye aye, that's enough as I wave my hand "I'm not some idiot who goes around pouring drinks on the carpet
Everyone watches me expectantly, Anthony's eyebrows raised, he has that look in his eye that 'go ahead and say it' look cause he knows why i did it "I thought pouring milk on the carpet would make it whiter says mercedes and me explanation makes all of them burst into laughter and Arianas hand smacks down on my thigh repeatedly as she damn near cackles ,I turn my nose up at her, pushing her hand away "it ain't even that funny, gimme my ring back as I look away and mumble "lame ass says mercedes and suddenly her hand shoots up, fingers curling under my chin so she can turn my head back "you ain't ever getting this ring back understand says Ariana
I nod and her 'bitch don't play' look is replaced with a smile "good says Ariana and with that she leans in and kisses me and I shake my head, a little smirk on my lips that I hide behind a sip of my drink, waiting for Ariana to turn to another conversation before I lean over to Anthony "aye as he looks at me "you doin it or not, I have a continued celebration waiting in my room and I'd like to get to that soon says mercedes "um yall can just go I'm not- says Anthony "nah uh ,don't get cold feet my guy" placing a hand on his shoulder, I pull him a little closer "you love her abd she's crazy as fuck about you, whatever doubts you got in your head, push em away cause I swear they don't matter
All that matters right now is you making sure Courtney is in your life for the present and the future as I squeeze his shoulder a little "you got this bro says mercedes and his brown eyes search mine as if he isn't sure if he should believe me or not then he nods mouthing that he's got this "what're you two whispering about, tell me says Ariana as she starts poking my back and I frown, turning around and gently slapping her hand away and clearing his throat before I can say anything, Anthony speaks up "actually I have something I want to share with everyone says Anthony and all eyes fall on him ,his girlfriends the most curious of everyone
In the next few minutes, he stands, and turns to Courtney and kneels much like I did and he expresses his undyingly loyal love to her, tells her that he can't imagine a life in which she isn't right by his side through ups and downs and promises to love her for as long as he lives and with the diamond ring sparkling from the moonlight he asks her to be his wife and of course she says yes and I had no doubts and they share a passionate kiss and the first people they turn to are me and Ariana, the girls are all squealy and excited about talking about possibly having a double wedding and kids at the same time, on and on "tell me about those doubts as I tease Anthony
He shakes his head "not a single one says Anthony as he chuckles and pulls me into a hug and patting his back I pull away and squeeze his arms "congratulations brother says mercedes and the goofy grin on his face is as bright as I've ever seen "we're gettin married" in an overly excited moment and we both start jumping up and down, happy laughs laving our lips and with yet another reason to celebrate, Joan has the waitstaff place an order for two cakes and Tommy requests more drinks and obviously the drinks arrive first: more champagne, wine and juices
Perhaps it's the already drunk two glasses over wine and glass of champagne but Ariana starts getting touchy and she scoots her hand closer to me, arm wrapping around my middle as the other runs across my thigh and her breath fans my ear before she starts whispering to me "I am so wet for you right now says Ariana and I freeze, whole body stiffening as I look around to see if anyone might have heard that and luckily her mom and Nonna have stepped off to the side to speak, Tommy, Doug, kiyan, fredo and Jackson are drinking and talking over by the terrace but Victoria, Courtney, Frankie and Anthony are still at the table, their conversation the only reason they aren't paying attention to me and my clearly horny fiance
"I haven't even done anything as i tell her and she bites her lip and looks up at me through her lashes "you didn't have to, just thinking about you drives me crazy says Ariana "is that so says mercedes and a low hum falls from her lips ,followed quickly by a kiss to the side of my neck "just knowing that you're gonna ruin me when we get back to the room ,thinking about how good you're gonna fill me up with that new strap I know you bought says Ariana and I raise an eyebrow at that, Ariana wasn't supposed to know about that just yet, alongside the one we usually use and when we were in Vegas, I went to a shop and got a new one it's a lot bigger than what she's used to
I wasn't sure when I was going to use it but I was, however it seems she found ot on her own "you been goin through my things princess as I Tap my finger under her chin so she looks up at me and she gets this innocent look in her eyes "I was just looking for one of your hoodies when I found it, I noticed it's bigger than the usual one says Ariana as her tongue runs across her lips making them look ten times more enticing then before "are you gonna use it on me baby says Ariana "is that what you want says mercedes and her head tilts to the side "what'd you think says Ariana as her tone is challenging like she's daring me to guess her wild thoughts
Looking her dead in the eye, I say "I think you'll let me do whatever I want to you as my thumb runs over her bottom lip "I think you'll beg me to do whatever I want to you if I make you wait long enough says mercedes and Arianas whimpers, it's quiet, erotic sound that's accompanied by her squeezing her thighs together "baby please take me back to the room, I need you says Ariana "they haven't even brought the cake out yet as I couldn't careless about the cake but she's so riled up it's a little amusing "I don't care says Ariana and my eyes lock away as I pretend to think "but I really want to try it says mercedes
Determination sets in her eyes and when she speaks its no longer a whisper "mercedes take me back to the hotel now before we put on a very good show for everyone here says Ariana even though her tone is nice and she cutely plays with my collar I don't take her words lightly "sounds like yall need to go sats Victoria when I look over she, Courtney, Anthony, and Frankie are giving us knowing looks "yup, ant get me some cake please as I pat his shoulder and he agrees, no questions and after saying quick goodbyes and see you laters to everyone we leave out, Ariana still clinging to me and like always the paps have found us so they're fighting for a picture of us outside
With the proposal having been public ,fans have most likely posted videos and pictures of it so the paps are asking questions about that too "mercedes do you think Ariana is actually going to marry you or are you going to end up like Pete says the pap and the angry expression I give him makes him rake a step back "Dawg what the fuck says mercedes as everyone pushes closer to hear my response, lights still flashing "I know you get paid to get info out of us and to take our picture but you don't get paid to be a jackass, keep them dumb ass questions to yourself if all they're gonna do is tear other people down says mercedes
Before he can say some other stupid shit I turn to everybody else "whatever scandal yall looking fa, you not gon get it, only story here is that we're happy, I love this woman more than anything in this whole damn world and I know she feels the same about me, if the rings wasn't proof enough of that says mercedes and when I turn away, finished with my statement, they all shout about a million questions at us but I ignore them, assisting Ariana in the car ,I shut the door and walk around to my side "take us home Jarvis as I tell the driver jokingly and the guy chuckles and shakes his head then doing as asked
A moment of silence passes before Ariana scoots closer, throwing her legs over my lap "you didn't have to respond to that you know says Ariana and I shrug, I don't know I didn't have to but there's only so many times I can ignore the blatant disrespect towards my girl and our relationship "baby as her fingers brush over my nape and up into my hair and I look over at her "I love you says Ariana and smiling instantly, I lean over and kiss her "I love you too babe" with another kiss "so much as she giggles when I start moving my kisses across her face only for a moan to slip out when I kiss her neck, I pull away with a smirk and a raised brow "sensitive are we says mercedes
"You're making me wait so yes yes I am says Ariana as her flglare returns somehow even more intense due to the lust in her eyes and I cup her cheek and smile, catching the view of the hotel as we pull up "I'm gonna make it worth your while princess says mercedes "promise says Ariana as she bites her bottom lip and I nod, giving her a long kiss before getting out and after Thanking our driver ,I help Ariana out and we go inside, smiling politely at the people who recognize us, we move as quickly and discreetly as possible to the elevators and it's clear Ariana has had enough of waiting because the second the doors slide shut her fingers are gripping the back of my neck, pulling me down into a demandingly greedy kiss and my hands find her hips tugging her closer to me
I grin against her lips, sucking the bottom one into my mouth and slipped my tongue inside when she moans and as my tounge explore her mouth, hers eager to do the same and I make sure that we keep this exclusively to kissing for now and last thing that we need is some leaked security footage of mercedes and Ariana fucking in an elevator and the ding of the elevator pulls us apart, Ariana taking my hand and tugging me down the hall to our room and she spins away from me, purposely pulling me closer so she can grind her ass into me as she unlocks the door
****smut****
Once again finding her hips I push her inside once the door is opened and her purse is long forgotten as the door shuts and I pick her up ,her legs wrapping around my waist as her hands press into my shoulders and kissing her lips quickly I whisper an 'I love you 'against her neck before nipping at the sensitive skin there ,she moans it back bucking her hips into me and I'd be dumb to not pay attention to the heat between her legs and moving my hand up her leg, I brush my fingers against her panties, feeling the mess she's already made "mercedes says Ariana as she sighs head leaning back against the wall, I look up taking in the sight of her so flustered and needy
"What'd you want baby girl says mercedes and her head raises, brown eyes boring into mine that has a storm brewing deep in my stomach "I want everything says Ariana "and you're gonna get it says mercedes and crashing my lips against hers, I pull her off the wall, walking us back to the bedroom and gently laying her down and hovering between her legs all while maintaining the kiss and I know this is an entirely different exchange between us than usual when we start to undress each other, our fingers roam delicately, kisses pressed to each other's bodies as skin is exposed with each article that's removed
Silently exchanging our love through the simplicity of kissing and featherlight touches makes the process of stripping a little longer that I usually hasty pace but it makes it all thr more intense and once again hovering over Ariana, our lips meet as my fingers glide towards her heat "hey as I whisper as I pull away, our mouths so close the word makes our lips brush "I love you as I say still quiet and with my fingers sliding passed her soaked lips and into her ,she's moaning when she whispers back "I love you too as I curl my fingers inside her "so damn much says Ariana
Arianas hand travels up my back, nails just barely digging into my skin of my shoulder blade, said nails push deeper at the pace of my fingers increase and I refrain from pounding them into her not yet at least, this is more about praising her and showing my love than trying to ruin her and instead of holding her thighs apart I move my other hand up to cup her cheek, making her eyes open, our gazes meet and for the first time ever, in this type of situation, tears well in her eyes ,her mouth opens, a gasp slipping out that's equally her trying not to cry as it it a response to my actions and it doesn't work however, a tear slipping from her eyes in seconds
My thumb swipes it away and she turns her head, pressing a kiss into the palm of my hand and when her walls start to flutter around my fingers, I know she's close so I press my thumb against her clit, rubbing in tight little circles as I continue pumping my fingers "let go baby, I got you as I tell her, swallowing her cry with a kiss as she reaches her high, thighs shake around me, more tears wetting one hand as her juices spill out against the other, repeatedly soft kisses press against her lips as I gently move my fingers, riding her through her orgasm until her breathing is even again, thighs now settled and pussy no longer clenching onto my fingers
Pulling them from her, I happily lick each digit clean, her hand on my neck pulls me down to kiss me once more, her tounge delving into my mouth and a moan escaping at the taste of Herself on my tongue and we make out for a moment before i ask if she's okay ,that whole thing was pretty damn intense and I don't plan to move any further unless she's ready "I'm sorry says Ariana, eyes looking away from me to the curtains across the room and a frown quickly takes over my face "what're you sorry for says mercedes and her gaze shifts, looking down between us but above my heart but never my eyes "I've never cried during sex before, I didn't mean to make it wierd says Ariana
"You didn't as I can tell she doesn't believe me and I move to sit beside her, pulling her into my lap, her side presses into me and I hold her close "baby girl you didn't make it wierd, you're emotions and how you express them isn't wierd "reaching up, I gently take her chin between my finger and thumb turning her head to face me "tonight is the most emotionally amazing and special night of my life-says mercedes "it is for me too says Ariana finally looking in my eyes and smiling softly I nod "so it's understandable that you'd cry especially while we're celebrating this new step in our lives through sex and it's already an emotionally charged activity, plus our engagement says mercedes
"Why are you so perfect says Ariana as she asks, eyes still glossy with tears "I'm not, if there is anything about me, it's you as I kiss her shoulder "you are the best part of me ,just every moment with you, every smile you give and kiss we share, I just as a blissful sigh leaves my lips "I have no idea how I got you Ariana but I love everything that we are and all that you are says mercedes and her tears fall again, this time faster and sge turns her body so that her legs are on either side of me and hugs me tightly, her face is buried in my neck, tears wetting my shoulder, I gently rub her back, whispering sweet words to her until she calms down and it's a silent cry that's lasts all of three minutes
"I fucking can't with you says Ariana with a chuckle "obviously you can or you wouldn't have said yes baby girl says mercedes abd pulling back, she looks dead in my eyes "we could redo that moment a billion times over and I'd always say yes says Ariana "God I fucking love you as I tell her, not being able to stop myself from kissing her and like the embers of a fire being set alight again, all the passion and intensity from before comes back and Ariana pushes her tounge into my mouth, both of us taking advantage of kissing deeply, her hips grind down into me, moans coming from us and I place my hands on her ass, moving her to grind into me once again
Continuing to roll her hips ,she trails kisses up my jaw ,to my ear, after biting it gently ,she seductively says "I want you inside me baby says Ariana "whatever you want as I tell her and pecking my lips, she crawls off me and the bed ,her ass jiggles a little as she excitedly goes over to my suitcase, bending over to get the strap from the bag it's in and I can't help but lick my lips at the sight of her, her pussy is still covered in her juices from her orgasm, going as far as to have dripped onto her thighs a bit and a happy smile is on her face when she comes to stand at the Edge of the bed, eyes wide at the strap "give it here baby as I hold my hand out to her
"Should've got a double sided one as Ariana teases "we both know how much you loved that one says Ariana and narrowing my eyes at her ,I pull the harness on and adjust the strap into it, resisting the urge to moan when it adds pressure to my clit and I scoot back on the bed, holding myself up to look at Ariana "come ride me baby says mercedes and her teeth dig into her bottom lip and sge crawls up the bed until she's hovering over me, hips slowly sinking down until she's situated over the strap and I trail my hand from her chest down, brushing over her pussy to gather her juices to put on the strap and then holding it up for her
"It's gonna be a bit of a stretch baby as I let her know and she nods and with a deep breath she starts to lower herself into it and she takes the tip like she's made for it but starts to struggle after, the girth of this strap isn't something she's used to nor is the length but she takes it inch by inch ,moaning and taking deep breaths the further it goes and what suprises me most is that she sinks all the way down, the strap disappearing into her completely, it's a sight ,seeing how stretched she is from it, so much so that even though she's clenching around it ,her pussy is barley moving and just when I think I've seen Ariana at her sexiest , I look up and see the very visible bulge at the bottom of her stomach
In amazement, I reach forward and run my fingers over it, my girl moaning loudly and throwing her head back at the feeling "fuck says Ariana as she breathes "I've never been this full says Ariana as her words are whiney, an almost primal need takes over me which makes me involuntary lift my hips a bit ,the bulge moves in Arianas stomach and Another moans comes and needing to hear that sound and many others ,I lift my hips again since she's sitting on me completely, the strap is barley moving but with how much it's filled her I doubt I have to do much but God I want to so I wrap my arms around her waist, keeping her close to me then turn us over so she's on her back
It's an even better view from above her and I move my hips back, slowly pulling the strap from her and then pushing back in, another curse and she's gripping the sheets and my arm and a few minutes of me slowly thrusting into her pass until the little winces stop completely then I pick up the pace and once I'm finally at a decent speed I keep it up while going deeper and one particular thrust making a high pitch scream come from her and I pull all the way out ,not missing the way she whines and I moan at the sight of how wide I'd stretched her "you have no idea how sexy you look right now baby girl "and pushing back in majes her eyes roll back "you take me so well says mercedes
"And you feel do good baby, please as Ariana cries "fuck me harder says Ariana and leaning down which buries me into her deeper and I kiss her as I pick up my pace again until I'm damn near pounding into her and her nails scrape up my back, definitely leaning marks as they dig in all the while I'm ensuring that I mark up every inch of skin that I can and unexpectedly, as one of my hands trails down her body, I press into the bulge that the strap is making in her stomach "holy fuck as that scream could break records and I raise my eyebrows at the feeling Around the strap and pull out only for Arianas juices to shoot from her, spraying my legs and stomach and it last a decent minute too
Thighs shaking violently as she continues to curse and with a smirk I thrust back in ,angling my hips to rub against her g-spot with each thrust, all this moving pushes the top of the strap closer and closer to my clit making me experience pleasure while also pleasuring Ariana and her walls are still tightening around the strap but I manage to move all the same and I bring her to another powerful orgasm, this time most of it gets on me but there's a lot that gets on the bed and I'm sorry to whoever comes to clean this room when we leave and when her third one hits so does mine ,I bite my lip to stop from moaning not that it would be heard over thud woman's glass shattering screams ,her body falls limp, chest heaving as her neck rolls ,head falling to the side
Thrusting softly through her orgasm, I pull out as she whines then back off of her to remove the harness and strap
****smut ends****
I trail kisses up her body, starting at her knee, brushing over her pussy to which she jolts and all the way up to her face "you okay as I ask but don't receive an answer "talk to me baby says mercedes "I as Ariana takes some more deep breaths "I think I might've died just then says Ariana and chuckling, I peck her lips "I hope to hell not, I'm not tryna go to jail for murder says mercedes and as if finally gathering mobility again, she lazily lifts her hand to cup my cheek "when I recover, we're gonna do this again says Ariana and I full on laugh at that "stay horny as I joke "I bet you can't even walk and you tryna go again says mercedes
Her blissful daze turns into a dazed glare "I can walk, watch says Ariana as she just barely pushes me away and shakily scoots to the edge of the bed and when her feet touch the ground I know it's not about to happen so I slide up behind her, catching her just as her legs give and nit saying anything, I help her back onto the bed, kissing her forehead and then getting up and I make quick work of grabbing some water, wiping myself off and getting a towl then going back to clean her up, nobody wants to go to sleep with cum everywhere "here hydrate as I hand the bottle to her abd she accepts it ,chugging the water down until its empty "can you get under the covers for me says mercedes
"No says Ariana as she whines "it's to hot says Ariana and my eyes wonder over her Slightly sweaty body and I nod taking the blanket off the bed cause it's messed up anyway and I toss it into the chair in the corner and turn back to ari "there under the sheets ,that good says mercedes and Ariana stares at them for a moment before nodding then crawling under them and almost melting into the bed and shaking my head at her ,I quickly kick our discarded clothes over to my suitcase, close the bedroom door and turns the lights off "baby says Ariana as she whines "come cuddle please says Ariana
"I'm right here princess as I tell her sliding underneath the covers and reaching over to her, she's more than happy to scoot closer, cuddling into me with her face pressing into my neck and I kiss the top of her head finally feeling how tired I am after everything today and before we drift off ,Ariana kisses my neck softly "I'm so in love with you as she mumbles "I'm in love with you too,I can't wait to call you my wife says mercedes and when she doesn't reply, I know she's asleep and I follow closely after
