The Future (Intro)
Pairing: Emmett (AQP2) x Female OC
Warnings: Post-Apocalyptic, Post-Trauma, Arranged Marriage, Forced Impregnation
Notes: Alright, you asked for this and I said I would do it! But there is a twist! I am writing my first OC story, so please be kind. I also stole some pictures from Fear the Walking Dead for my character introduction. It seemed fitting enough...
Tumblr media
Introduction/Characters:
Caitlin (Original Character & Main Protagonist): Caitlin is 25 years old and single. She is a nurse on the island which sometimes proves difficult for her as, just like Regan, she is deaf. Caitlin suffered trauma and abuse after having been captured by rebels on the mainland and then was rescued by Emmett who took her to the island. Caitlin enjoys drawing, reading, and gardening.
Tumblr media
Karl (Original Character): Karl is ten years old and Caitlin’s adoptive son. Their backstory is explained below. Karl is also deaf.
Max (Original Character): Max is eights years and also Catlin’s adoptive son. He is Karl’s younger biological brother.
Emmett (Main Protagonist): We all know Emmett of course. Emmett is 45 years old and leads the task force to the mainland, to which he travels occasionally to source food and seek out survivors. Over the years, Emmett has learned sign-language for Regan’s sake. Emmett is Eloise’s godfather and lives on his own with his dog Scout, in a small cabin, away from the main village on the island. He likes to keep to himself and draw, but often gets forced to socialise with the group.
Tumblr media
Regan: We also all know Regan. Regan is now in her early twenties and has a daughter called Eloise.
Tumblr media
Eloise (Original Character): Eloise is Regan’s three-year-old daughter.
George (Original Character): George is Regan’s husband.
Evelyn: We all know Evelyn of course. Evelyn is Regan’s mother and Emmett’s closest friend. Evelyn is one of the elected five council members and, unlike Emmett, she is very active in the community.
Tumblr media
Jordyn (Original Character): Jordyn is 30 years old and single. Jordyn is interested in Caitlin but has a troubled past. Until one year ago, he lived on the mainland with a rebel group but, due to a dispute with the other men, he took shelter on the island. Emmett and some of the others are keeping a close eye on him and some other young men, including Evelyn’s son, whom he is trying to recruit for an uprising against the authorities.
Tumblr media
Background
After years of living on the island, a community had finally been formed and it was this sense of community which gave everyone hope following the invasion.
Other communities like this were soon discovered elsewhere, mostly scattered across different islands off the shores of America and these communities eventually began to form a government again, named the “New Government of the Island States” (NGIS).
Telecommunication was slowly restored amongst these communities and, after implementing successful means of basic communication, five representatives from each island community were elected to form a local council. The local council for each island was then tasked to implement any new laws and regulations proposed within their sector and, so that none of the communities would create havoc for themselves or others, any new laws and regulations were prepared and passed collectively by the Senate of the NGIS. All five council members were also members of such Senate and, together, at least seventy percent of all 35 Senate members had to vote in favour of any new law or regulation before its implementation across the member islands.
It was called democracy and gave rise to many good ideas. After five years of chaos, criminals and murderers were now finally being brought to justice again and there was now also the option of legal marriage and companionship.
The few children that had survived the invasion were now being schooled and everyone was given food as well as employment.
A task force had also been established on each island, requiring at least twenty participants whom were mostly volunteers to, occasionally, travel to the mainland in order to look for survivors and gather supplies. The task force was also charged with killing the aliens which, over the past five years, had destroyed this earth and killed over ninety-nine percent of the population.
But, the fact that ninety-nine percent of the population had died following the invasion also gave rise to a new law which had been voted in favour of at the rate of just seventy-one percent. It was a law that had been frowned upon by many and was called the “Law of Procreation”.
Under the Law of Procreation, every female above the age of twenty and under the age of thirty-five had to be bound to a domestic relationship and produce at least two children if at all physically possible.
Birth control was made illegal for women who fall within this age bracket and if a woman had not found a partner within ninety days of this law having been enacted or within ninety days of turning twenty (whichever is the later), then a partner was to be assigned to her by council.
This, unfortunately, was the case for at least three single women on the Seaside Island, one of whom was Caitlin.
Caitlin was a 25-year-old nurse who had arrived at the island three years ago with a child named Max and a child named Karl. Both children were still young, eight and ten respectively and just like Caitlin herself, Karl could neither hear nor speak. He was deaf and, since he was just like her, this is why Caitlin had cared for him all this time.
On the day of the invasion, Caitlin was babysitting the two boys which was something she had done for several years beforehand. Because she knew sign-language, the siblings’ parents had employed her as a daytime carer for them after they decided that boys should both be home schooled and, with that in mind, Caitlin became a qualified aid to them both.
Then, when the aliens took over, it was Caitlin who saved the boys’ life and although she started looking for their parents, they could never be found. They had probably been taken by the creatures and, with that in mind, Caitlin and the two siblings took shelter in a nearby barn before making their way to the island.
Just as many others, Max heard the signal and told Caitlin about it which is when they made their way to the nearest dock. But, just as they had arrived at the dock to board a small ship to Seaside Island, the unthinkable happened.
Caitlin was taken by a group of men while Max and Karl managed to hide on a small boat near the pier. The boat itself became their saviour and, miraculously, they made it to the island to gather help.
Six men from the island then went to the shore in order to save Caitlin. It was an act full of compassion, led by a man called Norman who, sadly, passed away one year following his mission to the mainland.
Knowing that Caitlin could neither speak nor hear, Norman asked Emmett to join him along with Regan’s husband George. Both George and Emmett knew some sign-language after having learned the basics for Regan’s sake and were therefore well equipped to communicate with the captured girl who appreciated the involvement from both men in the rescue mission.
Alongside Caitlin, the group rescued two more women, as well as a young child who belonged to one of the rebels.
The women had endured great suffering under the care of these barbaric men and it was Emmett who took revenge for them after they were freed.
It was also Emmett who carried Caitlin out of the building as she was too injured to walk herself and they had been acquaintances ever since. One wouldn’t call them friends, but they sure got along, at least until now, which is when their lives were to be changed forever.
To be continued…
Please comment and engage. I love getting comments and predictions pretty please!

'Before his life-changing call from director Christopher Nolan, his sensational performance as the father of the atomic bomb in Oppenheimer, and the well-deserved Oscars buzz following the film’s release, Cillian Murphy spent nearly a decade portraying working-class Brummie gangster Tommy Shelby in Steven Knight’s British crime drama, Peaky Blinders.
Inspired by the real-life gang of the same name, the six-season series followed the Shelby family’s business dealings, relationships, unsavory acts, and pursuits of power in Birmingham, England, 1919. Thanks to compelling writing, word of mouth, a Netflix streaming slot, and standout performances from a stacked cast — especially Murphy’s — what started as a small show on BBC Two in 2013 grew into a global phenomenon.
Oppenheimer’s immense scale and widespread acclaim may have solidified Murphy as a household name, but in the years leading up to the monumental project, Peaky Blinders allowed him to meticulously refine his craft, wholly inhabit a character, and take his acting prowess to the next level. A decade after the riveting series premiered, Tommy Shelby remains one of the actor’s most indelible roles — a truth even more impressive when you learn that Murphy wasn’t Knight’s first choice for the Peaky protagonist.
That’s right. The 47-year-old Irish actor nearly lost the role of Tommy Shelby to Jason Statham, but a text sent to Knight post-audition, which read, “Remember, I’m an actor,” changed everything. Ahead of Peaky Blinders’ final season, Knight told Esquire he “never forgot” Murphy’s show of confidence. Despite the clear departure from his appearance and past roles, the actor was sure he could embody the physically imposing, virile gang leader. And he was right. “It’s a cliché, but no one else could have been Tommy Shelby,” Knight admitted later in the interview. “It would be absurd. It was as if Cillian was always waiting.”
Since Murphy first rode through the gritty Birmingham streets on horseback sporting a fresh undercut and a razor-trimmed cap pulled over his eyes, the role felt as bespoke as one of Tommy’s signature three-piece suits. On the surface, Murphy nailed the Birmingham accent, convincingly knocked back lowball glasses of whiskey, confidently handled a gun, and seductively smoked thousands of cigarettes on set. But his abilities to access and expose the deeper complexities, contradictions, and PTSD of the broken World War I veteran were particularly profound.
As the leader of the tight-knit Shelby clan, Tommy was a commanding, ambitious, fiercely intelligent force; an enigma who routinely committed despicable acts, but possessed enough potential for good that he repeatedly gained empathy from viewers — with help from Murphy’s charisma and authentically pained portrayal. Haunted by flashbacks of France and fueled by booze for a majority of the series, the Peaky Blinders leader perpetually grappled with a restless mind and stained soul, while guarding a heart capable of immense love. He was, all at once, completely unafraid of his own death and terrified of losing others. And since business was always personal, his family became his greatest strength and most sizable weakness.
A fraternal feeling and the sheer weight of familial responsibility shone strongest in scenes with Paul Anderson’s Arthur, while Tommy’s intimate relationship with Helen McCrory’s Aunt Polly — which deepened and shifted on the daily — peeled back his layers and offered glimpses of vulnerabilities. Tommy’s shell was undeniably softest with Grace (Annabelle Wallis), the woman who made a tea drinker, father, and eventual fortress out of him. Through small talk and genuinely sexy sex scenes, heart-to-hearts and heartbreak, and the brutal gut-punch of unexpected mourning, Murphy tapped into the full range of human emotions to convey and process the love and loss of Tommy’s wife. He never fully recovered from her death, but devastating breakdowns after the loss of Polly and his daughter Ruby proved he was still able to feel.
Murphy effortlessly exuded swagger, showed subtle humor in moments like the famous “no fucking fighting” scene, and slipped into pure panic at the drop of a hat. He loudly expressed grief in palpable scenes, such as Tommy’s brush with death in the Season 2 finale — when he almost had (and lost) “fucking everything” — or the bone-chilling final seconds of Season 5, when he hopelessly held a gun to his head, emitting a guttural scream born from insufferable trauma and fury. But despite the grand outbursts, so much of Tommy’s emotions were expressed without words; through Murphy’s facial expressions, jaw clenches, silent spirals, and intense gazes from his deep-set ice-blue portals.
Whether Tommy was strutting through smoky streets in solitude, leading grand shootouts with adversaries like Luca Changretta (Adrien Brody), digesting Alfie Solomons’ (Tom Hardy) verbal acrobatics, recovering from ruthless beatings, chomping on a leaf with his toddler, or battling his inner demons, Murphy’s performance was mesmerizing. Over the course of Peaky Blinders’ run, the actor brilliantly resided in the middle-ground between hero and villain, light and dark, and savior and sinner. And without fail, he flawlessly found his way back under the multi-faceted character’s skin after substantial filming gaps and major projects like Dunkirk and A Quiet Place Part II. In the 36 hours we got to spend with him on-screen, Murphy delivered a career-great performance, crafting an incredibly lived-in character, while masterfully evolving alongside him.
A decade after Peaky Blinders first premiered, it remains a razor-sharp series that boasts Knight’s brilliant storytelling; captivating characters; stunning set design, wardrobes, and haircuts; a killer soundtrack led by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds’ “Red Right Hand”; and a cast that was firing on all cylinders. The series’ legacy is as strong as the Shelby family in their prime, and when the credits roll on the dark final season — one made considerably more challenging by COVID-19 and the real-life death and mourning of McCrory — you’re reminded again that no one else could have been Tommy Shelby; that Cillian Murphy, as promised in his post-audition text, is one hell of an actor.'

it's rlly fun how my parents just straight up. do not care. about the disordered eating. we had all this talk back when i went through a big suicidal crisis a couple months ago, i explained what was really difficult for me, eating socially, restaurants, not choosing my food, etc, and now it's like. okay it didn't exist actually.
mother i am not going to order you around, either you accept that i'm gonna have difficulty dealing with "normal people behavior" or whatnot and you stop looking at me like :/ anytime i am anything but ecstatic at the idea of eating anything anytime anyhow, or you adapt your behavior to avoid the results you don't like to see. i'm only doing my best to handle things from my side, and i am certainly not going to try measuring for you how important family social eating occurences are to you.
#''we should talk abt it uwu'' WE TALKED ABOUT IT. STOP COMPLAINING THAT DOING STUFF THAT I CAN'T EASILY HANDLE MAKES ME WEIRD.#EITHER YOU ASSUME IT'S GOING TO MAKE ME WEIRD BECAUSE YOU KNOW EXACTLY HOW AND WHY#OR YOU STOP DOING IT IF IT'S SO UWU HEARTBREAKING UWU FOR YOU TO WATCH#i'm not happy about how guilty i am too of that specific brand of ''oh this is so sad *continues doing nothing*'' form of ''compassion''#they just want me to perform anorexia recovery for them#so they can feel okay we're doing a good job at raising a normal child#they don't give a shit as long as the compusive eating is my mom's meal at the dinner table#just like they didnt care when i had roughly the same problems but not as bad before i had a restrictive phase#i cannot compromise because then WHAT im just hurting my parents for a situation that doesnt make me any happier either?#i do not want to live with them. i do not want to go place or do activities with them.#i dont want to talk to them most of the time and im perfectly willing to handle the times it could be cool to.#but it's really hard to start developping a life of your own when you first of all need like two weeks of total life-reset#quiet at home#and ''at home'' there's your parents who will simply not stop trying to pull you into going random bullshit places#and i can't say no. because the places ARE interesting and time-limited. and it makes them happy. and what am i gonna do anyway?#keep doing nothing on the computer and wait for them to come back to keep doing only the shittiest parts of this unsatisfactory routine?#try to do some work in the house or go out. for them to see that something happened?#i dont know how to live like a normal person#literally not once in my life have i been able to think ''oh i need to do X'' and then just. do X. prepare what's necessary for doing X.#go out and do X. i have to keep stuck at this computer or in this room or with this book.#because there is a million different obstacles to every single thing i'm trying to achieve and half of them are parents-shaped.#everything hurts holy shit#broadcasting my misery#vent#ed tw

THE FUTURE IN YOUR HANDS (PART ONE)
Pairing: Emmett x Reader
Warning: Smut
Notes: This plays in a dystopian future, three years after the invasion!
Tumblr media
After years of living on an island, a community had finally been formed and it was this sense of community which gave everyone hope following the invasion.
It was time to rebuild and a council had been created to lead all of the known island communities, of which there had been six by now.
In addition to the council, there was a task force which operated on the main land, destroying the creatures one by one with the assistance of radio waves. But, with such task force came a heavy loss of lives and the future of society was left in the hands of those younger women who could still bear children safely in these communities.
Rebuilding meant creating life and a referendum was held during the third year following the invasion which determined that men and women were to be married and asked to procreate.
Procreation was essentially and about 80 percent of the residents of all six islands voted in favour of it, as did you.
But, unlike other women your age, you failed to find a suitable partner which meant that someone was to be chosen for you by the council.
Being a counsellor’s daughter, you knew that the man you were going to marry was probably one of important standing and this, indeed, was how you met your husband Emmett.
***
Emmett and you were married not out of love, but for a lack of choice and when you moved in with him on the north island, you soon realised that you didn’t see eye to eye with him.
He was in charge of the mainland task force and travelled a lot. He had seen a lot of lives being lost and you wondered why, in his position, he was appointed with a wife at all, especially a young one like you.
Emmett was twenty years older than you and, whilst you couldn’t say that he wasn’t attractive, he certainly wasn’t your type. He appeared too rough and unpolished for your liking.
He featured a grey beard and he certainly didn’t care much about his young bride, which also surprised you as most men his age would have been stoked to have such a young woman as their wife.
But he wasn’t and the truth was that he had voted against forced procreation in the referendum. He didn’t want to partake in implementing this law which, according to him, left women in vulnerable positions.
As such, he refused to comply with the law’s accords and the little intimacy you shared to date was limited to a small kiss on your wedding day.
You slept in separate bedrooms and Emmett refused to attend the meetings with the local priest to discuss your marriage. He didn’t believe in god and he most certainly didn’t believe in the requirement to make a child with you.
You, on the other hand, wanted a child. You wanted to fall pregnant and you believed in the necessity of procreation.
The fact that you didn’t love Emmett didn’t matter to you. You didn’t necessarily want to sleep with him but you wanted what you saw everyone else was having, namely someone to love and you knew that you would your child.
***
“You’ve been avoiding this for three months now Emmett” you eventually said a few days after he had returned from the mainland. This was the first time you really had spoken up about your desire for him to fulfill his duty to the community but he was as cold as usual towards you and sighed with annoyance.
“Yes, because it is madness Y/N…Procreation for what? To live here? On this island? Falling pregnant is your choice, no one else’s” Emmett told you but you shook your head. You knew you had to do what was requested of you.
‘Whether I choose to fall pregnant or not is irrelevant Emmett! You know we need to do this. It’s the law” you told him and, of course, he already knew that.
In fact, he had already been queried by the authorities as to whether you were pregnant yet and he was just trying to be polite in saying that pregnancy was your choice and not the council’s choice which, in itself, was admirable.
Whilst you didn’t see eye to eye with your husband on a lot of things and you most certainly weren’t in love with each other, he seemed to care about your wellbeing. You were twenty years younger than him and he didn’t want to hurt you and you appreciated that. Yet, he knew that he had to give into it eventually or otherwise you both could be punished for it and, whilst he was happy to endure such punishment, you were not and you shouldn’t be subjected to it because of his refusal to give you a child.  
‘Common, let’s just get it over and done with. I am mid cycle and I won’t hold it against you. Despite, having a baby in the house wouldn’t be so bad for us, right? I mean, you are barely here. It makes no difference to you’ you told him as you sat back on your bed before you reached beneath your skirt and pulled off your panties.
‘Y/N, I am not going to have sex with a woman who doesn’t consent to it! In fact, I don’t even think that I can” he told you reluctantly and you reached for his cheek and caressed it gently, rubbing your thumb through his soft beard.
‘I am consenting Emmett. I voted for this proposal in the past when the government was formed between the islands, knowing that our species would, one day, become extinct if we don’t do anything about it’ you explained to him, but he still felt uncomfortable about it.
‘Well, I didn’t vote in favour of this as you know. Despite, a younger man would have been a much better fit for you. I just can’t do this Y/N’ Emmett told you again but he knew very well that there weren’t many young single men out there on the islands and, since you were the daughter of a councillor yourself, it made sense for you having been married to Emmett who was also a council member who, until now, had refused to play by the rules.
‘A young man? You mean like Johnny or Drew?” you chuckled and Emmett couldn’t help but laugh as you were using the worst possible examples.
“A smart young man” Emmett clarified, knowing that Johnny and Drew were neither responsible nor smart and it was after some more conversation and convincing from your side, that Emmett agreed.
“Are you sure that this is what you want Y/N? Because there is no turning back after that” Emmett asked and you nodded again nervously.
It wasn’t so much that you wanted it. It was a necessity and you knew that you were soon going to be questioned by council yourself about your progress in this regard. It’s been over three months since you married Emmett and every pregnancy test you were given on day 28 of your cycle had been negative which wasn’t really surprising considering the fact that you hadn’t had sex in years.
***
“Yes. I am sure Emmett! Just…do it…” you told Emmett again before you laid down on your back.
“Fuck” Emmett sighed as, finally, he stepped forward and reached down to fumble around with his pants for a moment. He didn’t hope to find himself in this situation after the referendum was passed but, here he was, about to have sex with a woman he had no desire or love for simply for the purpose of procreation.
As he was doing this, he sighed while looking at the ceiling. This was awkward but when you spread your legs slightly, Emmett couldn’t help but look down at you and a sense of arousal spread through him.
You nodded again as your eyes caught him starring at your semi exposed mound and, with that, Emmett pulled his pants and briefs down a few inches, just enough to allow his semi-erect cock to come into view.
His cock was only the second cock you had ever seen and a nervous tremble filled you. It was only just the day before the invasion that you lost your virginity to your then college boyfriend and you didn’t sleep with anyone else ever since. This was three years ago.
“You can still change your mind” Emmett reminded you while, seemingly, trying hard to get into the mood.
“No, let’s do this” you said nervously as your heartbeat quickened and your cheeks felt flushed.
“Okay. I am trying to make it quick, I promise” he sighed and, just as he did, your clumsy hands reached for the sides of your bed to try and steady yourself.
This would usually be the point when your lover would kiss you, caress you and comfort you. Just enough foreplay to get your juicy and ready to be impaled. But this wasn’t the case now. It was almost transactional, like a chore that neither of you wanted to do but which had to be performed regardless.
Even more so, it was a weird feeling to suddenly realise that you were doing this to fall pregnant and to repopulate this planet.
“I am ready” you told him while opening your legs a little more and it became obvious to you that Emmett tried to look away from your most intimate region.
Then again, it’s not that it mattered. He was going to be inside of you any moment now, filling you with his seed and, with this thought alone, your entire body felt like it was heating up. Each time you tried to think, your head simply felt mushy and empty.
Eventually, Emmett kneeled on the bed and leaned in closer to you, and both of his arms slid around your frame to embrace you closely. He held you tight. It felt comforting and reassuring and you became to wonder what this was going to feel like.
You heard Emmett sigh once more and, within mere seconds, you became aware of the way he begun to move his hips, inching them forward.
You then swallowed harshly when you felt something blunt pushing against your mound. You knew that it was time and, with every second that passed, your mind began to fully comprehend the situation. This wasn't a dream or some sexy fantasy, it was your reality. You were about to have unprotected sex with a man who was much older than you and who didn’t love you. It would be something you wouldn't be able to undo and it would permanently alter your relationship.
“It’s okay” you reassured Emmett again nonetheless as he still appeared to be reluctant and, it was at this point, that the crown of his cock dropped another inch before getting stuck just between your pussy lips.
You could feel it there, the heat of his erection, and even the pulsing of his heartbeat. Despite all of this, his cock was pulsing with an eager need and you wondered whether it was simply because he hadn’t been with anyone for years or whether he was just a little bit attracted to you.
In the end, it didn’t matter and you opened your legs just enough for Emmett to claim his space between them. His hands moved down beneath your body, lifting your buttocks off the bed a little to give him better access.
His actions lured a startled gasp out of you and with your thighs parted and your crotch hoisted off the bed, Emmett instantly took advantage of this perfect angle and access, and thrust forward.
“Shit” you moaned as, unexpectedly, your toes curled inwards and your body tensed up while you wheezed for air.
“Too deep?” Emmett asked and you nodded nervously.
“It’s been a while and you aren’t exactly small down there” you stammered as your pussy rapidly clenched down on his shaft.
“I am sorry. Do you want to stop?” Emmett asked through gritted teeth after pulling back a little.
“No, keep going” you told him as your anxious breathing was quick and uncontrolled. You had to mentally reassure yourself that you didn't just break in two! The intense sensation of being stretched wide open filled your entire pussy, every inch of space within you. His cock was completely and utterly dominating your little pussy. It was almost as if nature itself had designed your vagina precisely to be just a tad too small to properly accommodate him.
“I will try to be quick” he reassured and you quickly nodded before trying to relax your body and give yourself to him completely.
When you relaxed and the initial pain subsided and you actually reclaimed proper sensations, you also felt just how weirdly warm Emmett’s erection was. But that wasn't all you could feel. Every vein and outline, you could feel it. It felt good and, with that, you encouraged him to move again.
Emmett began with slow and gentle thrusts and the velvety soft lips of your pussy were clinging snugly to his shaft each time he pulled back, creating a perfectly airtight seal.
You felt yourself getting wetter with each second and every one of his strokes lured an excited squish out of your pussy.
By now, you were dripping a wild mixture of his pre-cum and some of your own juices.
It was obvious to you that he was holding back his groans, not wanting to show you his pleasure. He just wanted to get this over and done with quickly and he had promised you to make it quick, seeing that, really, you didn’t want to sleep with him.
With that in mind, Emmett eventually increased his speed and held his tempo there. He kept fucking into you at an overly eager pace until he simply groaned and pushed his cock all the way against your cervix.
You cried out upon feeling his entire length back inside you. The bloated tip was just barely grazing your tender cervix, smooching against the smooth surface.
While he continued holding still, you were breathing heavily. Your entire body was ready for more. Your senses felt heightened and the presence of Emmett’s cock inside you felt so good and stimulating in all the right ways.
Sweat was making your shirt cling to your skin while your thighs felt sticky and slick. Most of your attention was still focused on your crotch, the entirety of your vagina felt swollen and sore.
But, Emmett had stopped moving and all you could feel was a sensation of warmth inside of you. It felt strange and new but you knew that he had done it. He came inside you. You were carrying Emmett’s seed inside your loins and, as a bit more time passed, you could feel the heat of his cum inside your tight channel.
“Fuck” Emmett sighed, almost like he was relieved while you were treated to the warm after-sex smell of sperm mixing with the aroma of your pussy. It was strange and, for some weird reason, you felt aroused by it.
Eventually, Emmett pulled back and you squeezed out of his embrace and felt his member plopping out of your sore pussy. You gasped as you suddenly felt the emptiness inside you, as well as the wetness he left behind.
“I will get back to work then” he told you, not knowing what else to say as he pulled up his pants and left you to it but you were, by no means, ready to get up just yet.
Your pussy was completely saturated in his cum. Glancing down, you could see your womanhood gaping and drooling a string of cloudy fluids onto the sheets.
A sigh of frustration left you. There was no time for regrets. You did what needed to be done and, yet, somehow, you felt unsatisfied.
He had promised you to make it quick, knowing that neither of you wanted this, but this also meant that you didn’t cum and you wanted to cum so desperately after feeling him inside of you.
Was this attraction? You couldn’t suddenly be attracted to him, or could you?

It is also rumoured that the film will be retitled due to Part 1’s underperformance at the box office. Mission:…

How do you become of the “big” writers in a fandom like TUA? It doesn’t seem like writing a lot gets me anywhere even if I do enjoy it
Luck. It's dumb luck.
My first advice is to not chase trying to be a "big writer". It genuinely is dumb luck. Focus on enjoying writing, enjoying/building the community around your fics/fandom, and try to not let yourself focus too much on those interaction stats. I know this is hard - we are all so addicted to that rush of dopamine and validation kudos and reblogs and comments give. We are all chasing it, it's part of why we share anything. But if you let that become your focus it sucks all the joy out of writing and then you have to take a break until you can get your head in a healthier spot about it and enjoy it again.
So, that disclaimer said, there are some things I think... help push luck in your favor, things I did to try and push community that translated to engagement. It's also about getting the right eyes on your fic, getting that one person to see and share it that starts a domino effect of more people seeing it (and maybe sharing it).
First is technical stuff. Get good at titles and summaries, summaries especially. You need people to want to click on your fic and to see what its about. I don't think I've talked about summaries before, and I'm not going to do it here outside of saying 1) Yes, I know they suck to write they're the worst and 2) that the goal of a summary is to let the reader know what to expect and to to pique their interest. It's the blurb on the back of the book when you're browsing, it's your shot to get someone to open it and give your story a try. Next, it's good you enjoy the writing process (that is the whole point!) because being technically good also helps keep people reading once they've opened your fic. People will read things they aren't necessarily interested in if it's well-written, and they will bail on things they like if it's too hard to read. But keep in mind that just being good isn't going to make you blow up in a fandom - some of the best fics I've read have had but a handful of kudos and comments on them.
The second is the social stuff. You have to find your crowd, your corner of the fandom, the people who will enjoy your fics. If you write Five but only Klaus stans are seeing your works, you're not going to go very far. Get good at tagging - on AO3 and when promo-ing on Tumblr. DO NOT take this as "put as many tags as possible so more people see it!". That's spam. Everyone hates spam. Don't be that person. Accurately tag your stuff so people know what your fic is. If it's what they want to read, they'll click on it - those are the people you are targeting, not every person in the fandom. Get comfortable self-reblogging posts when you post/update fics. If you're up for it, curate a community responding to comments on fics and encouraging asks on Tumblr (be careful with that and be ready to shut the inbox if people start being fucking weird - your mental health comes first).
After saying all that, my biggest point is to repeat that that "hitting it big" is dumb luck and fandom is fickle. TUA is in a lull between seasons right now and we all know the current struggle of artists and writers getting people to reblog things/interact further than a like/kudo. You're going to burn yourself out and stop having fun if your focus is on finding "fame" within the fandom, especially right now. I think the above stuff helped things take off for me, but I've been building my community for two years now and it was still luck at the end of the day. As you practice your writing skills, add to your library of fics, build your own community, things will get bigger organically.

Christopher Nolan's Oppenheimer is extending its exclusive run in IMAX. The 3-hour, R-rated epic about the creation of the atomic bomb opened opposite box office behemoth Barbie on July 21st and helped fuel the company's fourth-best weekend ever, according to IMAX CEO Richard Gelfond. Shot for IMAX with IMAX film cameras, Oppenheimer originally secured an exclusive three-week run in the premium format (including special presentations in IMAX 70mm film). But after surpassing $400 million globally over its second weekend, Oppenheimer will continue to screen in IMAX through mid-August before those screens shift to DC's Blue Beetle and Sony's just pushed-back Gran Turismo.
IMAX said in a statement: "In light of its extraordinary performance, IMAX is extending Oppenheimer's run an additional week through August 16/17, with plans to bring-back IMAX showtimes of Oppenheimer in the late summer/fall, as availability permits."
After Blue Beetle and Gran Turismo, Warner Bros. Pictures and Legendary locked down IMAX screens for Denis Villeneuve's sci-fi epic Dune: Part Two, which will push out Marvel Studios' The Marvels during its exclusive six-week run in IMAX. Oppenheimer's eventual return to IMAX could contend with Tom Cruise and Paramount's Mission: Impossible – Dead Reckoning Part One, which lost its screens to Nolan after one week. According to Gelfond, Mission: Impossible could be re-issued in IMAX after Oppenheimer.
"I feel sad in a way we can't accommodate all of them. I know Mission: Impossible is going to be a really big movie," the IMAX CEO told Variety in June, before "Barbenheimer" blew past expectations at the box office. "Nolan has a special place in IMAX's heart because he uses our cameras and promotes us. It's not a matter of us saying which we can make more money on. I would hope after Oppenheimer's run, we can bring back Mission."
Both Barbie and Oppenheimer contributed to what Gelfond referred to as "a historic few days at the global box office" during an earnings call last week.
"In a weekend where moviegoing reasserted itself as an unparalleled cultural and commercial force, IMAX demonstrated its ever-strengthening position at the vanguard of cinema," Gelfond said on the call. "The paradigm shift to IMAX has never been more apparent. IMAX obliterated expectations with a $35 million opening for Oppenheimer, delivering a staggering 20% of the film's global debut on only 740 screens. In China, we delivered more than 16% for local blockbuster, Creation of the Gods, on just 1% of total screens, our best-ever indexing for China film. And we scored 20% of the debut of Mission: Impossible 7 in Japan on just 48 screens."
The combined $46.4 million weekend was the fourth-best in the history of IMAX, said Gelfond, adding "there is real heat" around the IMAX brand and technology in the marketplace.
In Oppenheimer, Cillian Murphy plays theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer, leading a starry cast that includes Emily Blunt (A Quiet Place) as Oppenheimer's wife, biologist and botanist Katherine "Kitty" Oppenheimer, Matt Damon (AIR) as General Leslie Groves Jr., director of the Manhattan Project, and Robert Downey Jr. (Avengers: Endgame) as Lewis Strauss, a founding commissioner of the U.S. Atomic Energy Commission. Oppenheimer also reunites Nolan with his Batman star Gary Oldman as Harry S. Truman and features Florence Pugh (Dune: Part Two) as psychiatrist Jean Tatlock, Benny Safdie (Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret) as theoretical physicist Edward Teller, Michael Angarano (Minx) as Robert Serber, and Josh Hartnett (30 Days of Night) as pioneering American nuclear scientist Ernest Lawrence.'

Now I sit in my room anxiously for the next hour and a half waiting for tickets to go on sale, and then I drive anxiously across town too
#like fuck I’m nervous and I need to eat something but I’m nervous and that makes it difficult#also I fucking hate making plans with people that I don’t know all that well 😭😭 like yeah I know them at work but not outside of work#and also going places I’ve never been before?? to do things that I don’t do?? the social anxiety has my belly in knots#and then….. I have to show my parents that I pierced my nose and I think that’s my biggest fear about all of this#number one fear actually: not getting tickets#number two fear: me coming home with my nose pierced and having to tell them#I just got home from work and saw my dad was home and was like oh shit bc when I leave I’m gonna have to offer an explanation#but like once I have the tickets purchased then like 🤷🏻‍♀️ what’s my mom gonna do tell me that we’re not going#also like everyone keeps telling me I’m a grown ass adult and I can make these decisions myself#I wonder if everyone at work could see how nervous I was and how increasingly throughout the day I’ve been getting like more nervous and#more quiet but like I feel like it’s equal parts ticket sale anxiety and doing something out of the ordinary that my parents might not#approve of while I live under their roof and all that#but on the bright side my dad just left to go do something so maybe he won’t be back before I leave and I’ll just be like hey I’m leaving#um and I’m getting my nose pierced but I’ll be back soon!!#also though like a source of my anxiety right now is that I have to go pick up one of the people I’m going with and I’ve never been alone#with him not that I mean that in a bad way just an anxious way like I’m awkward as fuck#and the other girl who was maybe going with us didn’t work with us today and she seemed a lil hesitant about it and then I texted her about#what time I’m planning on going and she hasn’t responded but I’m pretty sure she read it#anyway I’m literally like buzzing with anxiety right now over getting tickets first and foremost#ALSO I’m supposed to be getting something from Amazon today and it’s not here yet plus I’m waiting on a trade to get here and I just want#it all to just be here
