“my cute little slut”
Tumblr media
“What was that my love?” Simeon said with a smile.
No coherent response came from your lips, just moans and mewls of his name. Babbles or things here could be heard there as he made you finish for the hundredth time tonight.
Continuous tears fell from your eyes and you tried to think just how you got into this situation. However it was a bit difficult to think when Simeon’s cock was filling every inch of you.
“Shh it’s okay, don’t even try to bother with thinking love, I’ll just fuck all those thoughts out of your pretty little head.” Simeon smiled.
Though his voice did not match his pace whatsoever.
It was rough and deep, he made sure to hit all of your favorite spots and he practically knew your body like the back of his hand.
“Look at you, aw what a precious little thing for me. You’re taking me so well MC” Simeon said softly in your ear as his fingers worked at pinching and massaging your nipples. You were getting close, he could feel it.
It wasn’t that hard to not notice the way you would clench around his cock each time you came. Though he loved that about you. Your pretty little hole belonged to no one but him.
And, no one but him could make you feel this way.
No one but him could take away all your worries and leave you a dumb fucking babbling mess on his cock.
That was a luxury he alone had, and boy did he love it.
You had come to visit him early in the afternoon at Purgatory Hall. Luke and Solomon went out to buy dinner so Simeon was alone for a while.
Because of this you figured he was the best to vent to about your current troubles.
He understood from the moment he saw you that something was wrong, and when you explained to him how your week just continued to get worse he listened intently and gave the best advice he could.
However he also explained that he would be there for you in any way he could…and of course one thing led to another and next thing you knew you were naked on his bed with your face down in the pillow and your ass in the air.
Simon started out slow and steady making sure to tease you just a bit. He’d bring you close to an orgasm then stop and continue at a slow pace again.
After a good amount of time it drove you absolutely insane to the point you began squirming and begging him to just fuck your brains out.
So, ask and you shall receive.
Simeon wasn’t gentle in the slightest after you spoke. He grabbed your hips and roughly pounded into you until he was satisfied. You came at least twice before he finally finished in you.
That didn’t stop him though. After that he flipped you around on your back to face him and teased you as he continued to pound into you, filling you with his cock.
“You’re taking all of my cock in your tight hole so well, only I can make you feel this good huh love?” Simeon said with a chuckle.
You didn’t respond as he continued talking, all that left your mouth was moans of his name and how it was too much. He in turn noticed and began to slow down with each thrust until you noticed.
“-C”
“MC”
“MC are you listening to me?” Simeon asked with a teasing smirk, his voice now finally reaching you. He had been talking to you for a bit but you never responded so he finally stopped causing you to squirm and beg for him to move again.
“’m listening I swear” you cried out.
“Really what did I say then?” He chucked. His dick throbbed inside of you and you tried to move your hips for any type of friction since he refused to grant you any, but it was no use, Simeon just pinned down your hips with a smile.
When you didn’t respond he laughed and pulled completely out of you.
A whine was about to leave your mouth again as you were getting prepared to beg, but his cock returned inside you in less than a minute causing a gasp to leave your mouth instead; your back arched and your hips buckled into him as you came just from how deep and harsh he entered.
“You’re just a dumb little slut for my cock aren’t you?”
His words had you tightening around his dick in an instant. Out of everyone in the Devildom you never expected an angle to say something that dirty to you. It shocked you but you loved every moment of it, he could tell.
“Uh huh” you cried as you gripped the sheets beneath you.
“Who’s the only one who can make you feel this good?” He said, followed by another hard thrust.
“You” you cried softly.
“I can’t hear you love”
“You- AH…!”
Before you could even string together a sentence he made you come again. Fresh tears left your eyes as he rode you through your orgasm straight into another one.
“Don’t stress with anything else for today my love, just let me fuck you till all you can think about is me and me alone” Simeon said as another orgasm ripped through your body.
You didn’t bother answering him, besides you couldn’t even really understand what he was saying. Your mind went blank as he continued fucking you and even going so far as to whisper a few praises and a few degrading comments with each thrust.
Orgasm after orgasm he had you remember just who’s cock you were coming on.
After all his name should be the only thing you remember in that fucked out little head of yours.

-> event masterlist
kaveh x f!reader -> brat taming
a/n: listen !! there’s nothing i love more than seeing the sunshine baby kaveh snap 🤭❤️‍🔥 it gives me so much joy to write him as you all know and i hope ya’ll have fun with this:DD also ik i’m spamming my works today but tehee! i’ve got some time and some writing juice 🧃 flowing !!
warnings: overstimulation, (vibrator!play ;) brat-taming themes, doggy!style, 🍬 SWEET 🍬 AFTERCARE 🫶🏻🥺 bc its kaveh !!
“no no no, baby, where’re you goin’?” kaveh stopped you from moving any further, hands gripping your hips and forcing them back into his plunging cock. a whiny sigh escapes you as you feel your folds absolutely destroyed by him. you both loved and hated it at the same time. the way the vibrator attached to your clit, taped by kaveh had no remorse along with his thrusts. you had squirted twice for him already, body reduced to a slump & mush. putty in his hands.
“i’m not done yet, stay and take it.” he commands, your ass slightly reddened just by the ruthless impact of kaveh’s pelvis against you, the grip on your waist bruised with how tight he’s holding you in place. you couldn’t possibly slump down or escape from the sweet torture kaveh decided for you.
“all this because you had to be mean to me, why? do i not take care of you?” kaveh spoke between his own ragged breaths, truth be told — you wanted him to behave like this. why else would you tease him in front of the kshahrewar group in one of the meetings? hands slipping up and down his thigh while he was speaking? kaveh had shot you warning glares, coughed for you to take the hint but oh no — his little brat was relentless. time for some sweet karma for you.
“please- s’ too much.” you whimpered out, and knowing how spoiling and kind kaveh is, you knew if you begged too much. he’d stop. he loves you a tad too much & you know how spoiled you are under his wing. “is it now, little one? is it?” kaveh raised a brow, thrusting with the same intensity while maintaining a conversation. “should’ve realised that when we were at the meeting huh?” he taunted, slapping your ass firmly to hear a sorry squeal out of you. “please- kaveh- please- won’t happen again.”
oh you sound so sweet apologizing to him, babbling mess because your brain is fried from cumming too much. clit practically throbbing at the pain & overstimulation, body covered in overworked sweat. yet you are in utter bliss, shaking and spasming like you’re supposed to. “please- kaveh- won’t do it again i- i promise.” your voice almost slurrs this time, as you feel another unforgiving orgasm seep through you suddenly. ripping out from you and letting you cry out for him. your mouth was open in a silent gasp, gritted teeth and a painful groan as you spluttered your walls all over kaveh. “aw, was that the fourth one?” kaveh sounded gentle, riding it out for you & also tipping off the edge. he’s filled you thrice already, and is shooting blanks, too. “god- you- you’re so tight baby.” he croons, riding it out for you.
you’re reduced to sniffles, slumping down as the vibrator is turned off & kaveh gently pulls out of you. his eyes are tender and sweet again, his affections back in place as he rubs your back soothingly. “there there, it’s okay.” he cooes, hoping to ground your floating senses. he eventually turned you on your back, taking the vibrator off of you, kissing your pelvis and your forehead deeply. “i’ve got you sweetheart.” he reminds, watching as you gasp at every little touch. your whole body felt like it was on fire, hissing even with tender little touches on your swollen & puffy clit.
kaveh craddled you in his arms, kissing all over your face and whispering sweet nothings in your ear. you’d never been so brainless & yet blissful. “i love you baby, gonna clean you up when you can tolerate some friction down there, i promise.” kaveh crooned, kissing your collarbone and talking to you about how he wouldn’t have done this unless you wanted it, giving you the surety of the whole scene, giving you the power he took away while making you submit. <3

PLEASEEEE WRITE SOFTDOM!WILLIAM AFTON PUTTING BRATTY!READER IN HER PLACEEEE (daddy kink, oral, nd degradation if ur comfy) (≧∇≦)
Omg yesss, i love that kind of stuff, let’s gooo! <3
Attention
Tumblr media
William Afton x Reader
Warnings: dd/lg, oral sex (m! receiving), degradation, implied age-gap, cockwarming.
A/N: i really loved writing this, its so kinky but cute, thanks for the request anon. also, english is not my first language, so i apologize for any errors, but i hope y’all like it! 💗
Tumblr media
You shouldn’t have done that. You should have listened to him when he told you to quit that bratty attitude. You shouldn’t have been running around and messing with his stuff while he fixed some details on his springlock suit. You shouldn’t have rolled your eyes at him.
But now it’s too late.
William grabs you by the arm, digging his long fingers into your soft skin and shoving you aggressively into the nearest wall as a pained gasp escapes your lips.
“What’s going on inside that dumb brain of yours, huh? why are you suddenly acting like a fucking brat?” he asks with a stern tone in his voice, clearly fed up with your shit.
“I- I’m sorry, daddy” you apologize, looking up at him with big doe eyes, casually dropping that misbehavior.
“I don’t need your apologies. I asked you a question.”
You don’t know exactly what to answer. It’s not like you are usually a brat, but today you feel kinda… ignored. You are more than starved of attention and touch. The only thing you want is to spend time with William, kissing his stubbly jaw or sit on his lap, but he’s been working on that spring bonnie suit all damn day.
“I- uh- i don’t know, i just got bored” you murmur, too shy to express your own feelings. “And- and i need attention”.
“Yeah? does my little bunny need attention?” he says, almost mocking. “Then beg for it like the needy whore you are.”
And before you know it, William is forcing you to your knees in a way that will surely leave bruises for the next day. But you don’t care, not when he’s finally giving you some of his precious time.
“Please daddy” you plead in a high pitched voice, pouting your lips while running your hands over his thighs, noticing the bulge starting to grow on his crotch. “Play with me.”
“Stupid slut” William says through gritted teeth. “Can’t even go a day without being used like a fucking toy.”
Letting out a devilish smirk, he unbuckles his belt and pulls down his pants, just enough to reveal his cock, fully hard already. And you can’t help but lick your lips at the beautiful sight, feeling your pussy tingle with arousal.
Not wanting to waste a single second, you eagerly take his length in your small hands, pumping it a few times before leaning in to kiss the pink tip and run your tongue over the prominent veins, earning a deep grunt from the depths of his chest.
“Don’t tease me, bunny” William growls, forcefully grabbing a fistful of your hair on his right hand, guiding his big cock into your mouth.
You try your best to take him, wrapping your lips around it, but when he hits the back of your throat and starts thrusting, it’s impossible not to gag and drool.
Tears start streaming down your face, digging your nails in his pants while he slides in and out at a fast pace, fucking your throat as if you were a doll, not even caring if you choke. It’s a punishment after all, it isn’t meant to please you.
“Are you crying?” William mocks you again. “Come on, isn’t this what you wanted? huh? you were acting up all day just to make me riled up and now you don’t want it?. Aw, too bad, bunny, cause you’re gonna take it… i don’t care if you like it or not.”
You look up at him, searching for his -usually tender- blue eyes. But that ocean color is almost completely gone, covered by his dark pupils, dilated with lust and hunger, without a single trace of kindness or compassion.
William keeps pushing you down on his length, enjoying the warm slickness of your mouth, cursing under his breath. And it’s not long until you feel his muscles tense and his cock twitch, finally releasing all of his hot cum on your tongue, milking him dry, not wasting a single drop of his salty seed.
He thrusts sloppily a few times to ride out his orgasm, and then pulls out, with a nasty string of spit still connecting you both.
“I’m sorry for neglecting you all day, my little bunny” he says, returning to his lovely demeanor, caressing your cheek and cleaning the mess of saliva and cum running down your chin. “How about you come sit on my cock for a while and when i’m done then we can have some fun, hm?.”
You just nod, unable to talk much due to the rough throat fucking he just gave you, but really liking the idea. So William helps you get on your feet again, taking you with him, sitting on the chair in front of the desk and patting his lap as an invitation for you to sit on him.
The only piece of clothing you’re wearing is an oversized pink shirt, so it’s really easy for you to straddle his lap and sink down his half-hard cock, whimpering as he fills your soaked sensitive cunt.
“That’s it, good girl” William coos, groping your soft ass, more than happy to be buried inside your tight hole.
You smile, giving him a little peck on the lips, and then let him continue what he was doing.
William keeps fixing some loose screws on the ears of the spring bonnie suit, and you rest your head on his shoulder, tracing your fingers on the seams of his tie, soon falling asleep while smelling his masculine cologne and the faint scent of cigarettes.

NEXT CHAPTER | SERIES MASTERLIST
NUEVA YORK 2099; EARTH-298
Let’s do this one last time.
My name is Miguel O’Hara… and I’m scared.
Tumblr media
You couldn’t breathe, the speed of your heart rate nearly caused you to believe you were going into cardiac arrest. Some small part of your brain wanted to actually check. It wasn’t hard to simply waltz right into the nearest hospital. Although dealing with the disbelief on doctors and nurses faces as you asked them to check if you were dying pushed you away from the idea altogether.
Another day at a job that didn’t allow you to have anything, left you seeking out the only thing you knew would help. An old dive bar still resided in the lower part of the city—The Nest, or as the owner called it El Nido—as local folk often referred to it. Although you were more than happy to call it a safe haven.
Everything was so pristine where you worked, so perfect. But The Nest was simply a small hole in the wall that helped people find a spot to feel safe for an hour or two. You tended to avoid going there on weekdays, but seeing as how you were about to be fired from your job…you felt it was necessary.
Sighing, you hitched your bag up higher on your shoulder, the weariness from the day finally settling its weight over you. What you wouldn’t give to be asleep right now, curled up in bed. Except you couldn’t go home. Not when all that remained was the dreaded time spent waiting for tomorrow. The day they would more than likely—officially—ask you to leave.
“Sorry,” you muttered, accidentally slamming into a woman walking hand in hand with her partner. The man glared at you, the gaze enough for you to quicken your step towards your destination.
The smell of the bar was exactly the same. Ricky always loved incense, and while you claimed it would drive customers away, he somehow made it work. Letting out a calming breath, you headed right towards your stool at the bar. The worn in leather a comfort after sitting in a stiff backed office chair all day. It was partially ripped and practically ruined, but you could already feel the stress melt off your body.
“Mi florita!” Ricky shouted, handing off a drink to an older man with white hair.
“Hey Ricky—oof—” He leaned across the bar, dragged you closer, and planted a sloppy kiss on your cheek. His breath was tinged with cinnamon and a hint of mint—letting you know he’d been drinking his favorite tea all day.
Nonetheless you smiled at his kind gesture. Ricky was like the cousin you had never had, but always wanted. Standing at around six feet with tattoos going up and down his tanned arms and his hair chopped into a mess of wild curls, he was your favorite person. The one you always sought out in times of trouble, if anything just to laugh. Unfortunately he couldn’t say the same for you. He loved his boyfriend too much to put you higher up on the scale—or so he claimed.
“How’s the job?” He poured you a martini, extra dry, extra dirty. “Are you playing nice with all the fancy folk?”
You chuckled, taking a sip and letting the alcohol burn its way down. “The fancy folk are slowly driving me insane.”
“Uh oh.”
Another sip caused yet another part of your stress to fade. “I don’t understand why it’s so hard for them to give me the same leniency they offer to other employees.” You sighed, dragging a hand down your face. “I mean it won’t matter anyways tomorrow.”
“Tomorrow?” Ricky slid a drink to the person sitting a stool away from you, taking the small amount of cash he offered.
“The day I’m probably gonna get fired.”
“What?” he exclaimed, nearly causing the glass of whiskey in front of him to spill over.
You shrugged. “It’s not a big deal. I can just…find a new place to work at. I mean there has to be other labs in need of a biochemist. Right?”
He hesitated, his eyes flickering to the bottle in his hands. “Florita…” Your stomach dropped, the severity of the situation finally dawning on you—turning your once rose hued glasses clear.
They were going to ask you to leave and because it was Alchemax, there was no other option but for you to beg for forgiveness. An act you had sworn to yourself that you’d never do. You were a good scientist. Hell you were the best in that fucking lab, yet they couldn’t see past the fact that you wanted to go your own way. To carve your own path in a company that was adamant on placing you in a box. Keeping you perfectly pristine for those on the outside—those that might wish to give you freedom.
Holding up your hand, you stopped him from saying anything else. If shit was meant to go sideways tomorrow, then so be it. You’d go out like a champion, worthy of whatever came next. Downing the remainder of your drink you slid the empty glass towards Ricky, nodding at him to fill it up. At least with that he didn’t hesitate, knowing you needed something to take the edge off—your night already taking a turn for the worst.
“Just gotta keep going,” you muttered, staring at the liquid in the hopes that it would magically fix everything.
“You got this chica.” Words that seemed empty at a time like this somehow brought a small smile to your lips.
Taking another sip you thanked him softly and watched him wander off to the other side of the bar, his eyes set on a group of men that were most likely there to buy out the bar. It happened every once in a while, but you couldn’t exactly fault them. They were here to have fun, to make an otherwise regular night memorable. They certainly weren’t here to wallow in their drinks, swallowing down their misery in the hopes of finding something good to take away.
“Shit,” you muttered when you came to the bottom of the glass again, your finger tracing the rim.
“Firing a biochemist is the stupidest thing a lab could do.”
You jumped when someone’s voice came from beside you—the man a stool away now focusing the entirety of his attention on you. Perhaps it was the vodka or the low neon lights of the bar, but you could have sworn his eyes were red. The color so striking it sent a chill down your spine—as if he was analyzing you with one simple glance. For a second you forgot he even said anything—too busy taking in his soft brown hair and strong jaw—until his lips quirked up into a grin.
One that made your heart flip in your chest, heat rising beneath your cheeks.
“Eavesdropping?” you inquired, gathering enough courage to confront him about his blatant behavior.
His lips pulled up on one side, something glimmering in his eyes that had you hooked the longer he looked at you. “Lo siento,” he said softly—his voice slightly mumbled. “Didn’t mean to. I just heard you talking about something that interests me.”
“Ah.” You glanced away to escape his penetrating stare, if for a chance to catch the breath in your lungs. “So you’re a scientist.”
Pride bloomed in your chest when he was caught off guard. His glass halfway to his mouth when the statement left your mouth. Once again that mysterious light flickered to life again, a soft chuckle leaving his lips and causing your heart to erratically beat in your chest. Taking a sip, he gently set the now empty glass back on the bar. The tension was so thick you swore you could slice it in half, heat spilling into your body.
“You’re observant.”
Shrugging, you took your own sip—the alcohol no longer burning your throat. “It wasn’t hard to figure out. What else from that conversation would interest you?”
“You.”
The words were out of his mouth before you could even finish the question, your breath catching at the sound of them. Your day had been shit. Enough to rival doomsday itself, but there you were sitting at a bar with him. A man who’s name you didn’t know. The smile spread across your lips before you could stop it, your eyes roving down his figure in an attempt to make him feel half of what he stirred in you.
“Let me buy you a drink?” you asked, pointing to his empty glass.
“I thought I was supposed to ask you that?”
Your smile widened. “Then ask me.”
For the second time that night he was caught off guard, his eyes widening slightly. The song behind you shifted, a low tune you could feel reverberating through you as he changed seats, taking the stool directly beside you. He moved silently, his thighs pressed tightly against yours as he got comfortable in the spot—his arm brushing yours.
The first thing you noticed was how warm he was—as if his body was a personal heater. But that was pushed out of your mind, replaced by the second thing. He looked at you clearly, hair falling onto his forehead slightly until you finally saw it. The actual color of his eyes. Crimson irises caught you in their hold, keeping you until he was satisfied—drinking you in, he trailed his gaze over the entirety of your body.
“Can I buy you a drink?” he murmured, his breath fanning across your face, body unconsciously leaning in.
You inhaled sharply, watching as his eyes lit up at your reaction to his proximity, his hand sliding closer until his fingers brushed against your wrist. Suddenly your shitty day was but a mere memory in the back of your mind. Entirely forgotten in favor of him. He was so large you swore he blocked everything else, filling your eyesight with nothing else but his frame. The breadth of his shoulders, the length of his torso and how he had to hunch over slightly to get close to you.
“What’s your name?” you inquired finally, your words breathy and dazed.
He grinned, hand curving around your wrist and pulling your hand towards him. “What’s yours?”
“I asked you first.”
Leaning in so close until you felt his chest brush your shoulder, his lips met your ear, sending chills down your spine. “Miguel,” he breathed, smiling at the way you practically melted into him.
For a brief moment you forgot you were sitting in the middle of a bar, people surrounding the two of you. When in fact it felt like nothing remained except you and him and the song playing behind you. Your exhale was shaky, representing the way you felt on the inside. As if he’d pulled you apart with a single word, his body heat affecting your brain—turning it to mush.
“Miguel…” Your hand curved around the front of his jacket, eyes meeting his as he moved, brushing his lips across your cheek.
“Hm?”
Something heady built in your chest, solidifying the truth you knew the second you started talking to him. You wouldn’t be leaving this bar alone. You simply hoped he was on the same page as you, but the way he hooked his arm around your waist, thighs bracketing your frame told you everything you needed to know. He was not only on the same page; he was flipping forward, reading a future that had yet to occur.
You almost wanted to ask him if he liked what he saw. If—by some odd chance—there was something more than this fiery electricity between the two of you.
“You still want that drink bebita?”
Words evaded you the longer he sat there, filling the space with nothing but him. How he smelled, how he sounded, fuck even the way his lips felt dragging against your skin as he spoke. You wanted to ask where he came from. How you’d never seen him in this bar before—your life now altered because of something so small. Simply a conversation. Yet now you couldn’t see yourself ending the night without him.
“No,” you sighed, shifting until your lips were a hairsbreadth from his. “You?”
He shook his head.
“I…” Your teeth dug into your bottom lip. “I don’t usually do this.”
Grinning, he raised your chin slightly with his knuckle, eyes catching you once more in their web, snaring you in a trap so saccharine you could taste it on your tongue. “Your pace.”
And with two simple words you were his. Captured happily in something you never wanted to be rid of. You smiled, your other hand sliding up into his hair, and finally the weight of your day lifted entirely off your shoulders. The question of whether or not he wanted to kiss you was on the tip of your tongue, but like before…he was miles ahead of you. With a small grin, he tipped your face towards his, catching your lips in a kiss you felt down to your fingertips.
He didn’t kiss you gently, languidly taking his time as if you were both here until the sun went up. No, that was nothing like what you expected. He devoured you. Stole every gasp, sound, and sigh you could have let out; his hand holding you exactly where he wanted you. Miguel kissed you like you were his only source of oxygen. And you let him. You bent to his will with ease, giving into every touch.
Whining softly, you tugged sharply on his hair when his tongue swept across your bottom lip. The taste of his drink now seeping into your mouth. You didn’t even question letting him in, desperate to know what he tasted like—what his tongue felt like licking deeply into you. Shivers ran down your spine when his hand gripped your hip tightly, pulling you closer until you sat on the very edge of the stool.
“Fuck,” he rumbled, pulling away and sliding his lips along your jaw.
“Oh…” Your breath was a sharp gasp when his fingers trailed down your throat, cupping it so quickly you could have sworn you imagined it. But the heat that spilled into your stomach told you otherwise.
His lips were heaven on your skin, nipping and licking until you were sure that certain spots would be tender tomorrow morning. You didn’t care. He could have sunk his teeth directly into your neck and you’d still ask for more. Somewhere in between talking and the tension, you lost any sense of worry. Those feelings went out the window the second he moved closer.
“I um—” Pushing at his chest, you reluctantly parted with the realization that you were still in public, and fucking against the bar would certainly make Ricky ban you for life. So he fell back, his lips swollen and spit slicked—pupils blown wide until the black began to bleed into the red. A swirl of brilliant color.
He smirked, taking in your disheveled appearance, all thanks to him. You had half a mind to drag him back to the bathroom, but the burning glare of Ricky was currently being seared into the side of your head. Without a doubt you knew it said: “You fuck in my bar you’re not coming back.” So you gathered whatever control you had over yourself and downed the remainder of your now tepid drink.
“My apartment is two blocks from here,” you began, exhaling a shaky breath as you finally took the leap for what you wanted. “We can be there in five minutes.”
Miguel nodded, yanking out his wallet and tossing down enough cash to cover not only his drinks, but yours as well. Which was your sign to grab your things. No words had to be said, because the intent was clear to the both of you. He was here to find the same relief you were—something to take his mind off of life for a little while.
Waving a quick goodbye towards Ricky, you followed Miguel out of the bar into the cool night air of the city. You were beneath the depths of the main part, where people didn’t necessarily travel to. But you’d grown up there. It remained a place where you still felt like you belonged. He didn’t say anything, he didn’t have to. Not when the intentions for the night were clear to both of you. But that didn’t stop him from reaching down and slipping your hand into his, clasping your fingers together as you walked down the street.
Such a small act of tenderness—barely noticeable to anyone walking past—but meant so much more.
“What brought you to El Nido?” you asked, leading him down the street where your apartment building resided. It wasn’t a drastic question, but you couldn’t help your curiosity.
You were a scientist after all.
He shrugged, thumb running along your knuckles. “Needed a night out.”
“Let me guess…” You turned—walking backwards the best you could—regarding him with a suspicious expression. The small smile on his lips caused your heart to thump a little faster. “You’re getting fired tomorrow too?”
For the first time that night you heard him laugh. The sound, soft and low and by all means something you wanted to hear over and over again.
“No.” He took in a breath, his crimson eyes searching the dark streets for nothing in particular—the hair on the back of his neck suddenly standing up. “I’m…trying to figure out something.”
“A problem?”
He sighed. “You could say that.”
“Well I think—”
You didn’t get to finish your sentence, his arm jerking you forward until you fell into his chest, wrapped tightly to him as a horn echoed loudly behind you. A car sped past, turning rapidly onto the street and disappearing around the corner—leaving the both of you in silence. Your breath came in quickly, eyes wide as fear ran streaked your body, turning you cold. And Miguel watched after the car, his eyes narrowed and body tensed—as if he was ready to take off after them.
That is until he felt your hands press against his chest softly, drawing his attention back to you.
“T-Thank you,” you gasped, trying to calm the adrenaline that rushed through you.
There was no mistaking what would have happened if he hadn’t pulled you close; if his reflexes hadn’t kicked in so quickly. You wanted to ask him how he did it. How he knew the car was coming, but the words were trapped in the back of your throat. The shock had started to flood your system. His hand cupped your cheek, thumb running along your jaw in a soothing motion that seemed to slow the panic filtering through your body. You wondered if he even knew he was doing it—the touch yet another reflex to slow the racing of your heart.
To bring you back down to Earth.
“Okay?” he murmured, his eyes tracing the curve of your face, watching your eyelids flutter for a moment as you met his gaze once more.
You nodded, lightly gripping his wrist simply for the sake of comfort. “I’m okay.”
The night was no doubt effectively altered. Not necessarily ruined, but you couldn’t go on the way you were before. No teasing words, no light conversation. Instead you walked in silence. His hand clasped in yours and guard up in case of something else happening until you reached your place.
You were surprised to find that you enjoyed the silence while you walked. As if Miguel offered you a sense of safety and comfort you never had before; your body responding differently than you expected. Sure, you were attracted to him, but you couldn’t deny the pull you felt towards him when it came to this. To needing safety in the midst of possible danger.
“This is me,” you said, pulling out your key from your pocket—the hallway light dim and nearly extinguished. You had to remember to speak to the building manager about it tomorrow.
He grinned slightly, waiting patiently for the door to swing open with a soft creak as you entered. While you wouldn't call your small and rather overpriced apartment perfect, it felt more like a home than even he expected it to be. A small kitchen gave way into a bigger living room. Your record player was placed on top of an aged wooden table—piles of books stacked haphazardly through the place.
Miguel eyed the various plants you’d managed to keep alive—each of them pointed towards the one large window on the opposite wall. A place where sunlight no doubt streamed in on early mornings.
He originally believed it would look modern; more like the outside city and world as a whole. Yet your home resembled something old. A place that stood still against the ravages of time—as if it were merely a museum and he was there to admire its antiques.
“I know it’s not much.” You shifted a small pile of clean clothes off the chair, moving it towards an empty laundry basket in the hallway.
“It’s nice,” he said, and he actually meant it. “Es acogedor.”
You could see the truth in his eyes, the flicker of something familiar coming through the crimson. As if he’d known a life like this once. You wanted to ask him. See if he’d tell you more than just his name—perhaps why his eyes were that color—but you knew tonight wasn’t about making this more than it was. In reality you both needed this. No strings, no commitment. Merely two people looking to release themselves from the heaviness of the day.
He turned, catching you staring blatantly at him. “You want me to make you a drink?”
The question threw you off and your expression must have given you away—his lips curling into a grin. “I thought I was supposed to ask you that?”
Heat curled low in your stomach, spreading with every step he took until the tips of his shoes met yours. He bent down, hand curling around the nape of your neck, fingers digging in slightly. Chills spread down your spine, goosebumps rising along your arms, and for a brief moment you wanted to live in this. To remain oblivious to everything happening around you.
Everything except him.
He brought his lips closer, his breath washing across your cheek. “So ask me,” he breathed.
“Do you want me to—”
Cutting you off he dragged you closer, practically hauling you up to his chest as his lips covered yours. It sent your mind reeling, your hands digging into his hair as if on instinct. As if you knew exactly what he wanted. As if…you’d done this before. Something intoxicating built up in your body, turning your brain foggy when his hands slid down, cupping your ass and dragging a moan from your throat.
He met your sound with one of his own—a ragged grunt that came from low in his chest. The echo of it reverberating through your body. You knew what this was. What it wouldn’t become. Yet you couldn’t stop the longing in your heart—the yearning that refused to be locked away in your mind. You wondered what it would be like if this was more. Would it always feel this…electric?
Something pulled you together and you couldn’t determine what it was. Except at that moment you couldn’t even determine your own name.
His tongue swept in your mouth, shoving all your thoughts aside and bringing forth something new. A feeling so strong you found yourself grasping for him tighter, pulling him closer as he licked deeply into you—tasting the alcohol on your tongue.
“Bedroom,” you gasped, yanking on the strands of his hair and earning another delicious grunt.
“Donde—”
“Down the hall.”
Stumbling back you felt his hand hitch your leg over his hip, nearly dragging you with him. Yet you could hardly complain. You were pretty sure that if he let you go you’d go falling to the ground from his touch alone. He moved your head where he wanted, lips slotting over yours and spit nearly trailing down your chin. A rush of slick poured into your panties, your nails scratching along his scalp as he nearly hit the wall, pressing you against it and hitching your other leg up.
“Fuck.”
You tried to tell him that you needed more, that you wanted him inside of you, but all that came out was a breathy moan. His hips grinded into yours, a soft moan being pressed to the shell of your ear, and that alone nudged you towards something earth-shattering.
His lips slid back along yours, hands grasping for any skin he could reach as you practically shoved your hips against his. The desperation practically seeped into the air—permeating your tongue with its cloying flavor. Words were exchanged for moans, tender moments now shifting into something quicker and faster. You wanted to feel him against you as fast as humanly possible, but Miguel was eager to remain here. Holding you up against the wall and kissing you until you ran out of oxygen.
“So I take it that’s a no on the drink?” you breathed, smiling at the small frustrated sound echoed in the back of his throat.
“Cállate,” he grunted, hiking you up and grinning at the yelp that was muffled into his mouth.
Wrapping your arms around his neck, you felt him begin to move—heading towards your bedroom. The door remained open from earlier and you thanked yourself for making sure to keep the place tidy before leaving for work today. Before you could detach yourself from him and lead him to your bed, he turned and sat down. Taking you with him until you were sprawled on his lap.
“Tú eres hermoso,” you mumbled against his lips, watching in delight as his expression shifted. Surprise spreading across his chiseled features.
“I’m supposed to say that to you,” he replied, a small grin playing on his lips.
You shrugged, pressing your lips to his jaw. “Guess we’re doing tonight backwards.”
He chuckled, sliding his hands beneath your shirt until it was clear that he wanted it off. You complied with ease. Allowing him to drop the fabric to the floor as his eyes fell to your chest, taking in the pretty lace of your bra. The crimson you’d come to admire darkened to something you’d call a burgundy—lust clouding his gaze. He wanted to take you apart. To see the inner workings of your body—your mind. Anything he could get his hands on. And you’d let him.
There was no doubt that Miguel had gotten beneath your skin in such a short amount of time. He filled your home with a feeling you hadn’t had before. Something tangible and real. Something you wanted to keep.
“Guapísima,” he murmured, hands cupping your breasts, thumbs brushing over the spot where your nipples poked through the fabric. A soft jolt rolled down your spine at the feeling.
Warmth clung to your chest, filling you to the brim with a sensation you’d only had once before in your life. Only this was different. This didn’t feel new or like you were just discovering it. No, this felt familiar. As if it had been hiding away in your heart, biding its time until you crossed his path—until you found one another. You wanted to wrap yourself in it, sink into its comfort, and you wondered if he felt it too.
The strange way all of this felt right.
Like coming home after being away for so long.
“Miguel,” you gasped when his mouth trailed down to your chest. The heat of his lips sticking to your already burning skin—his tongue trailing along the tops of your breasts.
He pulled down the fabric, taking your nipple into his mouth—practically lighting up on the inside when you cried out softly. Your hand dug into his hair, tugging on the strands as he scraped his teeth against you. Drawing out every sound he could find hidden in the depths of your chest. Your hips ground against him, clit pulsing with a need that would only be satiated by his touch.
For a moment you worried that he wouldn’t continue his path. That he’d ignore the way you were practically panting for him—the pleas falling from your lips with ease. But then his hand dipped beneath your waistband, fingers trailing along the edge of your panties. Your eyes nearly rolled back, hips canting up as you tried to get him to go further—to release you of this agony. But he held still. Entirely focused on driving you to the very brink of insanity; continuing the path with his teeth and tongue along your chest until the skin was tender.
“Impatient are we?” he mused, nose brushing against your jaw—the grin prominent in his voice.
You huffed, gripping tightly onto his hair and dragging his head up. “A tease are we?”
A moan ripped from his throat, his hips jolting up into yours at the slight sting of pain that bloomed in his head. His eyes were heavy, mouth parted as he took in a deep breath, and you could have sworn that you’d never see a prettier sight again. He looked at you as one would a statue in a museum. Tracing the curves and dips of your body with eyes that resembled the color of blood. Eyes that would never leave your mind again.
His tongue swept across his bottom lip, teeth protruding outwards slightly and you had half a mind to ask him about it. To question how exactly he had fangs, but your desire won out on the logical part of your mind. Leaning forward you licked your tongue along them, feeling how he shivered beneath your touch—how his body sang a tune you could match.
“Careful,” he rumbled, his hand pressing against your back and bringing you even closer. “I might bite.”
You smiled, sliding your palms beneath the collar of his shirt, the hot skin beneath warming your cold fingers instantly. “Sounds like a promise to me.”
“I’m not good with promises.” He let you pull his shirt up, raising his arms and helping where you couldn’t reach.
Even you couldn’t deny there was something so domestic about this. How he carefully shifted you so that you were now pressed into the mattress. His large frame looming over you—hair falling into his eyes as he looked down. It felt natural; the fluid movements were almost instinctive. Like your bodies knew what to do before you could even comprehend anything happening. You wanted to blame the alcohol—or hell perhaps it was the lust that was making you slightly lose it—but you saw it beneath the surface of his slightly guarded expression.
He felt it too.
Perhaps even more.
“Come here,” you breathed, cupping the back of his neck and bringing his lips back where they belonged—where they felt the most right.
You felt his hands fall to the waistband of your pants, popping open the button and you were quick to raise your hips, helping him push them down. There was a swiftness to his movements. Like he knew what you wanted before you did—something telling him that you were ready to keep going. But that would be scientifically impossible. No one could predict things that way. Yet you couldn’t help but go back to the color of his eyes—the fangs that now scraped along your throat and down your shoulder.
He seemed to be a scientific marvel. Something unknown.
“Your tur—oh—” Your head fell back, lips falling open when his hand dipped even lower, fingers sliding into your soaked panties.
A groan echoed in the room, his lips finding yours again as he gathered the slick that pooled at your entrance and dragged it back to your clit. Setting a slow and maddening pace that had you grasping for his shoulders. Your nails pricked the skin so hard you knew there would be marks later. He pressed down, sparks scorching your body, and grinned at your reaction. How your eyes squeezed shut, leg kicking out and hips pushing into his hand.
“So wet for me.” He sunk one finger into you, tearing a whine from your throat.
“Mig—” The breath caught in your lungs. “I want—fuck—please…”
He shushed you gently, lips sliding against yours messily as he worked you open, slipping another finger into you with ease. “I know amorcito. I’ve gotta open you up for me.”
Something pulled at your stomach, tightening slowly as he continued to pump his fingers into you—the wet squelch of your slick echoing in the room. You knew you were dripping down his hand, that he was able to slip in a third finger as he went. But that didn’t mean he would stop. No Miguel had become hooked on the sounds coming from your lips—the moans that you didn’t try to stifle. He curled his fingers and struck against the spongy part of your walls that made you practically curl up into him.
A surprised cry fell from your lips, eyes flying open to see his lips curl into a small grin, before he doubled down. Shifting the angle, he made sure to press the pads of his fingers in the same spot each time, his thumb swiping along your clit. And you felt that building pressure shift. It clawed its way up your throat, settling in your chest as he murmured soft words of praise.
“Dámelo,” he breathed against your lips. “Give it to me bebita.”
As if your body was following his request, you shattered. A choked cry of his name was swallowed by his kiss, his tongue licking deeply into your mouth—fingers rapidly moving to prolong your pleasure. It was too much, yet not enough. The hunger—the desire—screamed in your chest, begging for him to keep going, for this to be more than just one night. Yet you couldn’t speak.
You gulped in air, legs shaking when the pleasure slowly began to fade into a slight pain. But Miguel wasn’t done. He was far from it. Your heart pounded in your chest when he slipped his fingers into his mouth, moaning at the taste of your release—the shiny stickiness on his palm letting you know how wet you really were.
“Sabes deliciosa,” he murmured, pressing his tongue back into your mouth and sharing the taste of you.
Your hand fell to his pants, pulling at the buckle of his belt as he shifted—making room between your legs to lay over you. His hand pressing into the mattress above your head. The all encompassing feeling of him surrounded you; pressed you into the small haven he created with his body. Keeping you from the rest of the world as you lost yourselves in each other.
“Your belt is being difficult,” you huffed, head falling back against the pillow.
He laughed, opening it with ease and effectively earning a glare from you.
Miguel had to admit there was an ease to being around you. The weight he usually felt hanging atop his shoulders had been lifted—his mind suddenly clearer and mood better. He wanted to figure out why that was, but you were looking at him with a gaze that caused his heart to stutter. The urge to remain close to you seemed to overtake every other thought that ran through his mind. He rid himself of his pants, helping you pull down the lacy fabric—his lips sliding along your inner calf as he did so.
The light touch of your palm grasping on his hand brought his gaze back up—your small smirk rendering him speechless. Miguel had only been this way a few times in his life. All instances he could count on one hand, but this—you—were bringing out an emotion he would have rather kept locked away. Nervousness.
Leaning up on your elbows, you met him halfway, your arm going around his shoulders as he leaned down to kiss you. It was by all means…sweet. The passion remained, lingering beneath the surface and searing through your veins, but something else took over. A feeling he wanted to keep.
“Since we’re doing this backwards,” you whispered, brushing your lips against his and cupping his cheek.
Locking your leg around his hip, you used the leverage of his surprise to send him into the mattress, your hands falling to his chest as you perched yourself in his lap. Your lips formed around a smile when he grunted. The feeling of your bare pussy now spread along his cock—your slick dripping down and coating his length—was divine.
“Mierda.” His hands grasped your hips, grinding you forward a bit until the head of cock brushed your clit, ripping a gasp from your chest.
“F-fuck—” Your head fell forward, teeth digging into your lip.
“You’re gonna fuck me amorcito?” he asked, a flash of something dangerous echoing in his eyes. “Gonna ride me?”
You nodded, mouth falling open when he pressed against your entrance. Whatever comment you had died in the back of your throat when he began to sink into you—a slight sting of pain streaking up your spine as you took him slowly. He wasn’t kidding about needing to open you up, but still it was a stretch. A soft whisper of praise echoed in your ear, his thumb circling your clit to counteract the pain. Even still you dug your nails into his chest, no doubt leaving marks that would bruise later on.
“You can take it,” he murmured, thumb curling around your chin. “You can take it like a good girl.”
A whine caught in your throat, your hips canting down with each small thrust until you were seated in his lap again. His cock filling you completely—the stuffed sensation nearly too much for you. Miguel leaned up, catching your lips in a soft kiss; giving you time to adjust. Yet you felt the sharp need of desire work its way through your body, begging for you to keep going, to take everything he would give you.
“How do you feel?” He pulled at your bottom lip with his thumb, his other hand cupping your ass.
“F-Full,” you whimpered.
“Go ahead,” he said softly, allowing you to lift yourself off his cock slowly—slick coating him down to the coarse hair at his base.
The pace was lazy, barely even there, and he watched. His eyes tracked each movement you made, each time your hips shifted forward to change the angle. He burned the image of you fucking yourself on his cock into his brain—watching as you did exactly what you said you were going do. Ride him.
Scraping your nails down his stomach, you heard him groan, his hips thrusting up slightly and forcing a cry from your throat. You wanted more. Wanted to feel him fuck you into the mattress, but the familiar pressure was already forming again. Building in your stomach with each stunted thrust—the head of his cock brushing against the spot he’d found earlier.
“I’m—” Your head fell back, hips shifting forward to catch it perfectly—eyes squeezing shut. “‘M gonna—o-oh…”
“That’s it,” he rasped, guiding your hips and slamming you down onto him with a strength that made you sob, your hands grasping for any part of him you could reach. “Cum on my cock amorcito. Wanna see you—ah fuck—”
Your hips stuttered, eyes rolling back as the wave crashed over you, nearly pulling you under. A cry echoed in the room, your walls clamping down, and for a moment you felt nothing but bliss. You went blind with it, your body tipping forward into him as he continued to move you in short thrusts, dragging it on even more. Miguel grunted against your throat, sitting up fully and holding you close as you rode out your release, your body practically falling limp against him.
Eventually you felt yourself come back, your hands dragging through his hair as he placed kisses up and down your neck, arms tightening around you. Your legs barely worked, head still fuzzy with the intensity of your orgasm. But the desire still remained, stroking the fire slowly until it once again began to seep through your system. Warming your body.
He was still hard, throbbing against your fluttering walls. That alone caused you to moan softly, your hips shifting down and lips pressing against his jaw. 
“You didn’t finish,” you murmured, nails scraping against the back of his neck. The small goosebumps that appeared had a lazy smile curling on your lips.
He ached for that sweet release, wanted to flip you over and chase it, but he didn’t want to leave. At least not yet. There was something about taking his time with you that called to the part of him that had always wanted more. A part he’d crushed over and over again. Claiming it wasn’t necessary. There was no room in his life for that irritating emotion people referred to as love—no space in his heart.
Until a space began to slowly open up. He could barely find it, barely even see the small gash you’d made in the armor around his heart. But he’d discover it eventually.
“I want to see you cum,” you said softly, eyes glimmering with need.
“Bebita—”
Licking along his bottom lip you felt his cock twitch, his fingers digging into the flesh of your ass a little harder. “Want to feel it, Miguel. Need it.”
“Shit.” He felt the breath get punched from his lungs, your words sending a streak of heat down his spine. “Yeah? You want it that bad?”
You nodded, lifting yourself on shaky legs only to drop back down, impaling yourself on his cock. He spit out another broken curse, his head falling back briefly before you were tossed back—your body slamming against the mattress. You yelped, eyes going wide when he shifted over you, body covering yours in a way that had a haze settling in your mind. He grinned, fangs digging into his bottom lip as he spread your thighs—hooking them over his forearms and nearly bending you in half.
“All you had to do was ask,” he purred, guiding himself back into your dripping pussy and sinking in with ease.
Gasping, you clawed at his shoulders when he hit so much deeper, the angle changing everything. You wanted to shout his name, to tell him how good it felt, but he’d already started to pull back, shoving himself into you with a strength that sent you up the bed. A ragged sound was pulled from your chest, eyes rolling back when he brushed against that spot so much easier—grinding against it in a way that had your body going numb with pleasure.
“Look at you taking me so well,” he muttered, curling over your body and sending your knees up near your head.
“O-Oh…god!”
“Cosita linda.” His body was tense, teeth baring as he continued to pound into you at a pace that built your release so quick it burned through you. “Pretty fucking thing. Letting me fuck you like this. Perfecta—”
You cried out, nails breaking the skin of his back—leaving deep marks. Tears streamed down your temples, spit falling down your chin when he leaned in to kiss you. He was everywhere. His scent permeated your senses, taste now permanently etched on your tongue, and yet that still wasn’t enough. There was something about him that made you want to crack open your heart and give it to him. Offer yourself up entirely in the hopes he’d accept. He surrounded you, filled your entire being with nothing but him, and you loved it.
Your body went taut, eyes flying open to see him staring down where you were connected, how his cock disappeared into your leaking pussy.
He smiled, hands digging into your hips so tight it sparked a delicious pain when you sobbed incoherently. “I can feel you.” His breath stuttered when your walls clamped down—brows pulling tight and mouth falling open in a silent shout. “That’s it. C’mon—” He gasped, fingers falling to your aching clit and circling it quickly. “Cum on my fucking cock. Soak me.”
This time the release wasn’t built steadily to give you time to prepare. You could barely breathe, your lungs screaming for some small amount of air. Yet your body seemed to be solely focused on one thing. A broken shout of his name left your lips, echoing in the room, combining sinfully with the sound of skin against skin and your slick. His thumb found your clit, pinching it between his fingers and something in you broke.
It slammed into you unexpectedly, dragging out a loud keening wail—white flashing behind your tightly closed eyes as it rushed through you. Flooded every sense you had until all you could comprehend was him chasing his own release. He fucked into you with short stunted thrusts until he fell forward, his lips colliding with yours—a ragged cry being pressed into your mouth.
He spurted into your already dripping pussy, filling you deliciously and sending another flicker of warmth down to the tips of your fingers. His chest heaved, lips swollen and eyes dazed, and you wanted to solidify the sight in your mind. Except the reality of what this was would eventually come crashing back down. Reminding you that he was not yours to have. That you were simply two passing stars in a tangled web of this universe, meant to part ways.
He let your legs fall back to the bed, slipping out of you with a hiss before he flopped onto his back, dragging you with him. His cum dripped down your inner thigh, smearing against the skin. But for now you let it happen. Content to remain right there, feeling his chest rise and fall as he attempted to catch his breath. His fingers traced lightly along your spine, line after line until you realized what it was that he was drawing.
A web.
Or at least…that’s what it felt like.
“I don’t think I can move,” you mumbled, smiling into his skin when he laughed—the sound low and rough.
“That’s a good thing I hope,” he replied, glancing down at you—eyes tracing the curve of your hip and breast that pressed into his side.
You placed a kiss on his shoulder, hand splaying across his stomach. “Definitely.”
Silence enveloped the both of you like a comfortable blanket, filling the space with a soft feeling. It lulled you into a state of peace. Sleep nearly overtaking you. Yet you fought against it. Too busy taking in what he looked like—attempting to commit him to memory lest you never see him again. You wanted him burned into your brain, each memory tattooed into place permanently. But that’s not how life went.
This wasn’t a fairytale, and he wasn’t yours.
So you settled against his body, soaking in the warmth he emanated and allowed your eyes to flutter shut. His breath came in slower, arm curling around you as he fell asleep gradually—his heart a steady thrum in his chest. An echo that allowed sleep to drag you beneath the surface, giving way to something peaceful.
Tumblr media
The loud angry beep of your alarm clock jolted you awake, your eyes flying open and body aching as you sat up quickly. There was a mess of blankets on your floor, obviously kicked off in the middle of the night. It seemed that with the heat of the outside world and his body, you were content to sleep with a thin sheet wrapped around you. Yet where you expected to find clothes left haphazardly around the room, you found nothing.
Your clothes that had been stripped off now lay in a pile on your chair, shoes placed by the end of your bed. Last night was clear to you now. The all consuming bliss, the way he had felt buried inside of you—how he had touched you. And while you understood it was merely a one night stand. You couldn’t stop the disappointment from seeping into your chest.
The sight of him completely erased from your apartment put a damper on an otherwise good morning.
Sighing, you swung yourself into a sitting position at the end of your bed. A throbbing headache began to spread along your skull. No doubt the cause of waking up too fast. Either that or the alcohol had actually decided to give you a bitch of a hangover. You’d have to figure that out later. The reminder of what the day held for you flickered bright and blaring in your mind—killing whatever joy you had left in your chest.
“Fuck,” you spit, dropping your head in your hands as you finally settled on one conclusion. You were about to be fired.
You had about an hour before you had to rush out the door. Giving you enough time to find out how to stop the delicious ache in between your thighs from going away. The echo of the outside world drifted up through your somehow open window and you raised your eyes, gazing at the spot where he had been only a few hours ago.
Only to catch sight of a glass of water placed on your nightstand—a ripped piece of paper beneath it. You practically lunged for it, hands carefully sliding the paper out and eyes tracing the messy scribble of what you assumed to be his writing. The message was short. Direct. It could barely even be considered sweet, but you saw the tenderness through the short sentence—the care in his action of leaving you with something to remember him by.
I had a lot of fun.
So we can do things the right way next time.
— Miguel
Beneath the message a phone number was scrawled, as if he’d been hesitant to even put it there in the first place. But it seemed that you weren’t the only one to feel that strange connection. That lingering sensation of familiarity whenever you thought about him. There was something to uncover between you. Perhaps the something more that you were aching for last night.
You had no clue.
Yet that didn’t stop you from grabbing your phone and inputting the numbers carefully. Glancing back at each one to make sure that the message wouldn’t disappear before your very eyes. You typed his name at the top, smiling at the contact before sticking a web right beside it. The memory of what he’d traced along your skin coming back to you.
A thrill of joy went through your body, lips pulling up into a wide smile as you pressed the button to send a text. While it may have been too soon—perhaps a bit fast if you were looking at it properly—the warmth in your chest won the battle in the end. 
How could something that felt this right be messed up with speed?
How could it go wrong?

_________________
November 2020 : 5 miles outside the Boston QZ
It was November now. The ground wasn’t quite frozen yet, but there was a chill in the air every morning. You could no longer hear the birds singing outside the window. Your body was slowly accustomed to the lack of vitamin D it was getting, just like how it did every year around this time. Knowing that the cold months of winter were on the horizon, only had you grow more restless. Your routine felt like a death march. Wake up, drink shit coffee. Shovel shit or dump bodies. Return home, drink, sleep and repeat. You couldn’t remember the last time you actually got a decent night's sleep. Your body was constantly exhausted. Your muscles were screaming at you but your brain was constantly running, like one of those stupid energizer bunny commercials from the past. You hated that stupid bunny.
It was early one morning. 4:00 A.M probably, but no one actually kept track of the time anymore. Your restless slumber was disturbed by your bedroom door slowly opening. You kept your knife tucked under your pillow constantly. The sound of your door creaking open was enough for you to grasp your knife to your chest before you shot up from under the coarse covers. You were absolutely ready to fuck up whoever was coming into your space.
A sense of relief mixed with annoyance washed over your features when you saw it was just Joel. His brooding height leaned against your doorframe was enough to make you roll your eyes. Did this man ever not look intimidating?
“Jesus fuck, Joel. You couldn’t have knocked? Given me some form of a warning?” You whispered while tucking your knife back under your pillow.
His expression was amused and even in the dark, you could tell this mother fucker was smirking.
“Sorry about that doll, you’re just a little too easy to sneak up on. You had me for a second there thinkin that you were gonna stick me. Would have been an awful fuckin start to my mornin.” He rasped, his voice was still thick with sleep and his hair was a fluffy mess on his head. Not that you were paying attention to those details. Damn him.
“Yeah, and for a split second I was thinking of sticking you. That’s why we knock. So you don’t end up with a knife buried in your chest, asshole.” You muttered the last part out as you swung your legs over the side of the bed and slowly stood up.
“Alright, smart ass. Next time I'll remember to knock.” He was still leaning against the door frame, arms crossed against his chest.
“Yeah, yeah sure you will. I’ll believe it when I see it.” You grabbed your hoodie from the floor and threw it on before attempting to fix the mess that was your bed head. Using a worn hair tie on your wrist, you pulled it into a ponytail.
“What kinda psycho is up at this early hour anyway?” You asked. Looking over at him as you pulled your hair back.
“The kinda psycho that I apparently am. It ain’t even that early.”
You scoffed then. “Pretty fuckin early to me. Now my real question is, what are you doing in my room at this hour?”
He shrugged then, clearing his throat as he spoke. “Well, couldn’t really sleep. Thought about how I promised you that I’d teach ya how to properly shoot. Figured there's no time like the present.”
“Huh. So that was your first thought that came to mind when you couldn’t sleep?”
“Guess so. Anyway, ‘nough of the chit chat. Get your shoes and coat and grab the gun I gave you.” His tone was not a suggestion. It was a demand and frankly, it was too early to be dealing with his bullshit.
“Sir yes sir.” You mocked his tone then, giving him a sarcastic solute.
“You're hilarious doll, really. Drop the smart act. We don’t have time for that shit today.” He turned on his heel then, leaving your open doorway and walked down the hall.
Your immediate reaction was to flip him off, naturally. Grumbling to yourself you grabbed your backpack, your gun and your knife and threw on your boots. The last thing you grabbed was your thick coat. You could already feel the cold air nipping at your skin.
Joel was waiting for you outside the apartment door. He had a travel thermos for you, filled with coffee. The familiar smell hit your senses immediately and you appreciated the small gesture. Closing the door behind you, you grabbed the thermos from him before taking a sip, letting the warm liquid seep into you. The QZ coffee was shit but it got the job done.
“Thanks. Wouldn’t survive the morning without this stuff.”
He looked at you for a moment then before he took a sip of his own.
“Oh trust me, I know. You’d be intolerable without this shit.”
You gave him a light punch to the shoulder then, it was a playful one.
“Yeah and you’re still a grumpy asshole with or without it.” You brushed past him then, quietly heading down the stairs. You could hear him mutter under his breath about your comment and you grinned to yourself as his footsteps followed yours.
Once you were both outside the apartment, Joel instinctively walked ahead of you. Always feeling like he needed to protect you. It was in his nature. You took the back alleys together, ducking in dark corners as you moved silently. There would only be a handful of Fedra soldiers out at this hour, but it still wasn’t worth the risk of getting caught.
________
The sun was just beginning to peek in the horizon as you neared the hole in the perimeter fence. Your coffee had gone cold at this point. Joel had stood over you, pulling back the torn fence so you could slip through first. He waited, looking around for any signs of movement and when he deemed it was safe, he slipped through the fence without another glance.
The silence between you was comfortable as you walked towards the nearby woods. It was a 5 mile walk to the deepest part of the woods. No one would find either of you there and in a sense, it was peaceful. You had shared a bit of jerky during the walk. It wasn’t much for breakfast but it would have to do. You’d kill for some proper eggs and bacon. Maybe in another universe, you thought.
Joel had wrapped up what was left of the jerky and stuffed it back into his coat pocket. You were surrounded by tall evergreens on every side. They were lightly dusted with freshly fallen snow. The scenery was beautiful, and eerie at the same time.
“You sure no one's gonna find us out here?”
“Nope. Been comin out here for years with no problems. You’ve got nothin to worry about, doll. Trust me.”
Letting out a sigh then you set your bag down on a nearby stump along with your now empty thermos.
“Alright, fine. I trust you but if a clicker comes out of those trees..”
He chuckled then, shaking his head slightly as he finished off what was left of his coffee.
“We’re in the middle of the fuckin woods. Most we’ll see out here is a few deer. No clickers. You’re safe.” His reassurance that you were in fact safe out here was enough for you to un tense your shoulders slightly. You’d always be on alert though. You didn’t have much of a choice; not in this world.
He continued then, setting his bag down next to yours.
“You brought the gun, right?”
“You think I'd come all this way with you, just to not bring the gun with me?” You smirked slightly, unzipping your bag and pulled out the revolver.
“What did I say about ditchin that fuckin smart mouth of yours huh?” His eyebrow was raised and his jaw was clenched slightly as he looked at you.
“Oh shit man, I’m terribly sorry. You see, my smart fuckin mouth is kinda a part of me. It’s permanent. Meaning, it’s not going anywhere.”
“No fuckin shit, sherlock. I know what permanent means.”
It was your turn to smirk now. It was easy to fall into banter with him and you secretly, but not-so secretly enjoyed it.
“Mhm. I was just checkin.”
He let out a huff then. You were insufferable sometimes but he liked the fact that you could keep up with him. In fact, he enjoyed these moments with you. It made him feel all the more human. You were that constant breath of fresh air for him. Better than any liquor, or opioid he could get his hands on.
“Alright. Enough of that. You remember the grip I showed you the last time?” He asked.
“Sure do. You were pretty serious about it, if I remember correctly.”
“Good. Now show me so that I know that you ain’t bluffing.” He had his arms crossed over his chest again, waiting for you to confirm that you weren’t faking it.
You held the gun outwards with both hands. Your grip was firm but from his angle, you looked a bit stiff. “See? I’m a good listener after all.”
“Relax your arms. You’re fuckin stiff and when that kicks-back its gonna go right into your face. What did I say about–”
You cut him off then. “Thumb over my thumb, left hand squeezes down on the right.” You looked over at him then, your eyebrow raised almost as if you were challenging him.
“You gonna do the teachin here or am I?” He walked over to you then, coming up alongside you before he reached out and grabbed your arms, the fast movement caused you to stiffen more.
His lips were at the shell of your ear now and his hands were gentle. “Relax.” He whispered. “Just relax, Gwen. You’re stiffer than a fuckin board right now.”
You felt a shiver run down your spine from his lips nearly touching the thin skin on your ear. For a moment, the close proximity of his body to yours had your head spinning. ‘Focus, Gwen.’ you told yourself in your head. ‘Get your fuckin shit together.’ You relaxed your shoulders slightly, allowing him to push your arms down so that there was a slight bend. His hands were on yours then, rough skin on soft. He adjusted your grip slightly then before he moved his hands off of yours. Just when you thought you were out of the woods, you felt his hands on your waist and despite the biting cold, your skin was on fire from his touch.
“Straighten your back a bit. Yeah, just like that. Good girl.” You could feel his smirk against your ear. This motherfucker knew exactly what he was doing.
You straightened your posture then and waited for his hands to move from your sides but they didn’t.
“Are you fuckin tryin to distract me right now Miller?”
“Nope. I don’t have to try and do that. You just allow me to get in your head.”
You took a deep breath then, cocking your neck to the side slightly as you bit down on your growing frustration. Did he really have to be this close to you?
“Shut up.”
He moved your legs a few steps to the right with his knees and the movement caught you by surprise. You felt like fucking bambi on ice with how easy he was able to maneuver you. It sent brief flashbacks from how he effortlessly threw you on your bed not that long ago. ‘Focus Gwen.’
Joel knew exactly what he was doing. Toying with you was easy and although he knew he was crossing into some dangerous territory, he couldn’t help it. He was drawn to you like a moth to a flame. He liked that he had this effect on you, up until his own brain was screaming at him to focus and get his own shit together.
He moved his hands from your waist then, letting his fingertips drag against the outer layer of your coat before he took a step back, allowing you to feel like you could breathe again.
“Now, you see that tree over there? There's a bare spot right in the middle of it. Think you’re good enough to hit it?”
Your eyes shifted to the tree he was focused on, zoning in on your target.
“Yeah, sure. Easy peasy.”
“Alright, rookie. Need you to take a deep breath in. Squeeze the trigger, not all the way. Breathe out and release.”
You listened to his words then. Taking a deep breath in, you lightly applied pressure to the trigger. Not enough to set it off. When you released your breath, you pressed down all the way and listened to the deafening crack of the bullet being released. You were feeling cocky and expected to hit your target on the first try. Instead, the bullet had whizzed past the target and into some nearby evergreens. missed.
You were silently simmering in your humility and Joel was going to take full opportunity to pick on you for it.
“What was that you said just now? Somethin easy peasy?”
Your jaw clenched then as you bit down on your vile words.
“Alright, big shot. Why don’t you show me how it’s properly done then?” You handed the revolver off to him then, standing off to the side.
“Alright, but you’re just askin for humiliation on yourself doll.”
“Just shut the fuck up and hit the fucking tree, Joel.”
“Feisty. Shoulda gotten you more coffee.” He mused before gripping the gun, just like he showed you. His movements were far more natural than yours. It was all muscle memory at this point for him. A second later and another crack. Joel’s bullet landed right in the middle of the target, sending shards of bark flying into the untouched snow.
He turned to you then, an undeniable smirk on his face as he handed you the gun back, leaning in slightly as he spoke.
“Easy Peasy.” his tone was cocky and it sent your blood boiling.
You were left speechless.
For the next hour, Joel had you practice hitting the target. He didn’t care that you were wasting precious ammo. If you were going to go on smuggling runs with him and Tess, you were going to need to use a weapon outside of your knife. The last thing he wanted was for you to get injured just because you weren’t comfortable with firearms.
“Alright, doll. One more time and then we’ll move on. You’re almost there just need to think about not being so stiff and breathe, for fuck sakes. The enemy is gonna lay one on you before you even have the chance to pull the trigger.”
He was sitting on the stump then, chewing on another piece of jerky as he watched you.
You were determined to hit this fucking tree. You had to prove to yourself that you could do this. All you wanted was to get in on the action. Fuck up some infected and feel like you actually held a purpose in Joel’s life. You listened to every word he said. Remembering to loosen up and breathe. Eye on the target, ‘breathe.’
You took a deep breath, pressing down on the trigger lightly and on the exhale, you released it. Listening to the crack of the bullet as you watched it soar through the air, smacking into the chipped away bark. You had finally hit your target. A sense of pride and relief washed over you in that moment as you turned towards Joel.
“Atta girl.” His lips were upturned slightly as he looked at you.
You gave him a little playful bow then, your boots crunching in the snow as you walked over to the stump he was sitting on and plopped down beside him, nearly pushing his broad form in the snow.
Joel gave you a disapproving look, his eyes lowered as he grumbled. “You really can be fuckin intolerable when you wanna be, doll.”
“I know.” There was a sense of smugness in your voice. It just naturally came out when it was just you and Joel. “Anyway, you kept your promise to teach me how to shoot and now I will do the honors in teaching you how to properly wield a knife.”
“You think for a second I don’t know how to use a knife?” His eyebrow was raised in your direction.
“Oh I don’t doubt that you can use one. The real question is, how good are you really?”
“Guess we’re about to find out.” He offered you the last bit of jerky before he slowly stood up, pulling his combat knife out of his bag, flipping it a couple times in his hand.
You had a feeling that in the next few minutes, you would be forced to eat your words.
Joel loved to see you in your natural element. Right off the bat he observed that you were far more confident with a blade in your grasp. Your posture significantly changed, hell, your entire demeanor had gone and done a complete 180, right before his very eyes. He wanted to see what you were made of. Were you as lethal as you made yourself out to be? How many people had you killed to survive? He wondered.
Joel was far too focused on you to even hear your instructions. He was off in a completely fucking different universe and it was all your fault. You had taken notice when he didn’t respond right away and you rolled your eyes, feeling slightly disrespected. To get his attention, you wasted no time to hurl your blade at the targeted tree. The tip of the blade was embedded in the same spot where Joel’s bullet had previously struck true. The sound of your blade hitting the bark, knocked him out of his trance and had him blinking a few times. Cursing under his breath but you couldn’t make out his words.
“Are you even fuckin listening to a word I just said man?” Your tone was sharp and full of annoyance. Shaking your head you walked over to the tree, the snow crunching beneath your boots and you grasped your blade, yanking it from the dry bark and walked back over to him.
“Zoned out for a minute there.”
“Wow, you don’t fuckin say. Pay attention, Joel. I’m not gonna repeat myself twice.”
His fingers flexed over his own knife. You really did have quite the mouth on you and for someone so petite, your words packed a solid punch. “Easy now, Doll.”
You gave him a look then. Your eyes boring into his for a moment and you both waited to see who would break the tension. You were challenging one another, silently. Who was the weaker one and who would hold their ground. Joel found your stare on him to be just the right amount of intimidating and he found himself casting his eyes away from yours, clearing his throat quietly.
You had won this round, for now.
“As I was saying..” You continued with your instructions and this time, he made damn well sure to listen. He found himself glancing at your lips as they moved. He couldn’t help himself, really. You were truly an enigma in his eyes. A mystery wrapped up with the biggest fucking attitude he had ever encountered.
You showed him the proper position. Where, and how he should stand. You adjusted his grip, made a comment about his posture being wrong. You were right there, invading his senses. Just the brush of your fingers across his covered arm was enough to have him sweating. You damn well knew what you were doing, you had to.
He watched you carefully then as if he was the prey and you were the predator. Oh, how the tables had turned.
“Breathe out nice and slow when you release it. Don’t fight against it either. The blade is a part of you, Joel.” Your tone was too soft for his liking, your breath could be felt against his cold cheek and he gritted his teeth together, his jaw clenching.
“Yeah alright, think I got it from here, doll.”
You smirked then knowing that you had gotten under his skin just the slightest. You rattled him. Taking a step back, you crossed your arms over your chest, giving him a slight nod.
Joel focused back on his target, zoning in on it and like the mother fucker he was, he threw his knife like he had done this 1000 times as well. Joel knew what he was doing but having you think you were teaching him, was the highlight of his day. The tip of his blade struck the chipped away bark with a thud and he looked over at you, smugly.
“You mother fucker.”
“Easy peasy.” He quipped back.
“I can’t believe you right now. What is there that you can’t fucking do?”
“Hmm.” He thought for a moment wanting you to believe he was bluffing. “Can’t think of anythin. Guess I’m just that good, huh?”
“You’re un-fucking believeable Miller.”
“Oh, I know. I absolutely am.”
_______
Joel had decided to teach you a few combat moves. He wanted to get back at you for rattling him and this was the perfect opportunity. He didn’t think about how you were far quicker than him. You blocked his punches easily and you hit back twice as hard. Now it was easy for him to believe that you were lethal, without a doubt. You could tell he was beginning to tire by his staggered breaths, his knees were for sure going to give out soon, his punches at you were becoming un-calculated and sloppy.
Bingo.
Joel felt his legs getting kicked out underneath him before he had the chance to catch himself. His back hit the snow with a soft thud. He hadn’t even had the chance to pull himself up before you were on top of him, pinning him down with your weight. The tip of your blade was held dangerously close to the artery in his neck and his wrists were pinned above his head. How the hell did he end up here? He had no clue.
You leaned down towards him then, hair falling around your face and you had that wild look in your eye. Something about you in that moment was so feral. So lethal. He could feel the blood pounding in his ears from the close proximity. You had this man absolutely fucking stunned, and at your mercy.
“Do you yield?” There was a playful edge to your tone. You were enjoying this, getting back at him for all the times he got under your skin.
Joel let out a breath he didn’t realize he had been holding. He looked up at you, taking notice of the flush in your cheeks, from the cold most likely but maybe, also from him. He took notice of how close your blade was to his throat. Your other hand holding down his wrists and your thighs pressing down on his hips.
He didn’t respond. He instead took charge of the situation again, having no trouble freeing his wrists from your hold and pushing his weight against you. Your knife was yanked from your grip in a flash and tossed into the snow. He had you pinned beneath him now. His body was looming over yours, his breath heavy and he had your wrists pinned on either side of your head. Your legs were trapped between his and you couldn’t even move if you tried.
He leaned down then, his lips brushing the shell of your ear as he spoke. “You hesitated, doll. Now you’re dead. You can never let the enemy have the upper hand.”
Joel had you at his mercy now and he watched as your chest rose and fell. Your breath came out in sharp puffs. “You’re a fucking dick Miller. Fuck you.”
He chuckled then enjoying the fact that despite you and him both knowing that this little game was over, you were still resilient, still feisty and absolutely too stubborn to admit defeat.
“That mouth of yours is gonna get you killed one day Gwen.”
You scoffed. Twisting your wrists in his firm grasp to see if there was any chance of freeing them but he had you good.
“It’s gonna do a hell of a lot more than just get me killed, Miller.”
He was silent then, staring down at you like you were a caged animal, and he was the spectator. You both seemed to be waiting for the other to speak. To do anything. He thought about kissing you. Your lips were so close he could nearly taste them. An illicit affair in the snow, now that would be something.
The weight of his body on yours was no longer present. Your wrists were freed and you finally felt like you could breathe again as you quickly sat up, reaching for your knife and tucked it back into the holster around your hips. Joel had outstretched his hand for you and you grabbed it as he hauled you up from the snow.
You were both silent as you grabbed your bag and slung it over your shoulder. Time had passed and the sky was beginning to grow dark. You had been out there for hours. On the way back to the QZ, you both had stolen glances. The tension was thick but neither party tried to cut through it. Some words were better left unspoken. You both had felt it though. The gravitational pull towards one another. After today, it was undeniably there.
Neither you, nor Joel had won this round.

anti-Valentine’s Valentine’s date
I tried SO HARD to write the adorable Jal prompt that I received for Jalentines day, and instead of cute all my brain wanted to write was angst. Set in approximately D2, it’s a 3k lead-in to a longer Jal fic that I’m probably not going to finish writing.
*
Mal kicks the door of the boy's dorm open with the heel of the stupid, impractical strappy sandals she's been wearing since before dinner. 
Or at least, that's what she tries to do. Instead, because her life is a curse and the very existence of high heels is a prison, the delicate silver heel of the shoe that Evie spent hours sourcing for her snaps off. 
Great. Perfect. This is just how she wanted the night to go. 
Mal pounds on the door with her fist instead. "Open up! I brought misery and disdain for the institution of love!" 
A thump. "And chocolate?" 
"No, I didn't steal any chocolate at all from my date with the king of Auradon," Mal says, as sarcastically as she can manage with one shoe on and the other broken to pieces in her hands. "Just let me in already." 
The door pops open. "You're late." Carlos informs her. "Evie already went back to your room." 
Wonderful. 
"I don't care," Mal informs him right back, and shoves her purse, which is tiny and lilac and stuffed to the brim with all the chocolate she could fit, into his hands. "I need this princess shit off my body yesterday. I am not cut out for valentine's day, that's what I've learned, and also Ben's going to dump me and I don't care."
"Woah. Uh. Maybe you should care--" 
Mal spins around to glare at him, and Carlos immediately throws his hands up. "I MEAN, your judgement is impeccable and we all hate Ben now!" 
Ugh. 
"I don't hate him," Mal snaps, yanking her earrings out and throwing them sort of in the direction of somebody's dresser. There's still enough empty space on the top for her to recognize it as a dresser, so signs point to it belonging to Carlos. "I hate love. And valentine's day. And dating."
"You said you hated froot loops yesterday." Carlos points out. "Because I took the last of them. So like, I'm gonna take this with a spoonful of salt here. Did your date not go well?" 
Mal rips the pins out of her hair with so much force that one of them flies into the mirror. It doesn’t shatter, which is a fucking shame. She would have liked to make an awful mess. "I hate love, and I'm going to die alone surrounded by the bones of my enemies. No, it did not "go well,”” She stops ripping out pins long enough to add air quotes, which are essential to the dramatic effect of it all. "He asked if I love him back, and I told him, again, that I don't know how to love people, and he made this horrible face and was so kind about the whole thing, and just-- ugh!" 
Carlos is hovering. "I’m…sorry?" 
"I'm sorry we ever came here." Mal spits, yanking her other shoe off and throwing it somewhere in the direction of Jay's shoe pile. "I don't-- I can't be a princess. I hate that I just-- I don't know how to do anything, and I hate when people look at me like I'm supposed to know what I'm doing, and there were all these cameras, and--augh!" 
"Jay's in the shower," Carlos offers. "If you want to bother him about it." 
"I want to hit something," Mal admits. It's not a perfect solution, but she's already feeling a little bit less like her skin is on too tight now that she's got her hair loose and wild around her shoulders and her earrings and stupid, uncomfortable, impractical shoes off. "I think-- d'you want to spar with us?" 
"Can't. Homework." Carlos gestures to the textbooks he's got spread out on the neater one of the boys’ beds. "I've got a test tomorrow and if I fail I'll have to retake the class." 
Mal leans over so she can see the textbooks. It looks like history, maybe. Something with a lot of dense text and no visible math problems. "I can't imagine you failing any test, furball." she says, meaning it. How well they thrived on the isle of the lost isn't a perfect gauge for how well they're doing in Auradon, but school is school no matter where they are, and Mal can't remember her little nerd ever failing a test.
 Carlos goes even tenser at her attempt at reassurance. "First time for everything." 
"Still, you failing?" Mal scoffs. "We're in Auradon, not Wonderland. Not everything is upside down and inside out and topsy-turvy. Or whatever Allie’s sayings are.. You'll be fine." 
"I'll be better if I study. Sorry. No sparring for me tonight." 
Ugh. Mal rips another pin out of her hair and throws it towards the mirror with the others. "Suit yourself. I'm going to go bother Jay into letting me beat the shit out of him."
Carlos flashes her a little half smile. "Have fun."
“Oh, I will,” Mal assures him, and spins around to go invade the sanctity of the boy’s showers. 
The short, barefoot walk down the hallway to the boy's bathrooms gives Mal critical time to think about her plan of attack. She's wicked and awful, naturally, but she's also not especially interested in getting shouted at by a teacher for being out of bed and in the boy's showers tonight. She's had enough of being shouted at by adults who think they know better than her. She's not some Auradon girl to be controlled, so she's simply not going to get caught. 
Which means she's going back to the boys room. 
At least she'll remember to grab some different shoes this time. 
"Fuck off, Mal," Carlos calls through the door when she knocks a second time. "You can't steal my shoes." 
"I can steal whatever I want, actually," Mal corrects him, opening the door and barging in, as is her right as their fearless leader. She is Mal of the Isle, and she's not a prize to be won or a princess to be wooed. She's going to steal whatever shoes she likes. "Jay's shoes don't fit me right." 
Carlos throws a pen at her. "Neither do mine, you're just delusional about the size of your own feet. At least take my sneakers if you're going sparring. I hate when we have to dig out the poison kit after hours." 
Mal sticks her tongue out at him. Her shoes are all perfect, and she's also perfectly aware of the size of her feet, which are currently half a shoe size smaller than the one Carlos wears.  As such, their shared approximate size gives her the right to steal his shoes whenever the princess ones she's been dressed in are too much for her to manage, physically or mentally. . "I'm taking the ones with spikes." 
"Are not." 
"Are so," Mal says, diving under the bed to where he keeps all four pairs of his shoes lined up. "I'm going to add more spikes while you're not looking. Poison-tipped ones. Razor-sharp." 
"Use porcupine quills, they're barbed." Carlos says helpfully, making absolutely no motion to get up and defend his shoes.
Mal shoves aside the fallen textbook, grabs the hoodie shoved under the bed for later, and ah. There’s her prize.  Boots (with spikes), dress shoes, cleats (more spikes), and there at the end, sneakers. 
"Fishhooks," Mal suggests. "The giant ones that rip holes when they come out. And I'll dip them in bleach powder so it burns the whole time they're inside." 
Carlos shudders. "Gross." 
"You're gross," Mal rips her dress over her head, and does not wince at the popping noise the shoulder seam makes. Evie can fix it again later, or they can burn it. Whichever. "I'm taking your clothes too."
"Wash the bloodstains out before you put them back." 
Shirt. Pants. Hoodie. Sneakers. 
Ill-gotten disguise on, Mal flashes him a thumbs up on her way back out the door. 
“Hey,” Mal calls out, keeping her voice intentionally low. She’s got the hood of Carlos’s stolen hoodie pulled up over her hair, and she’s relying on the sight of a familiar size-shape-color-scheme to deter anyone from looking too closely at her. Not that there’s many students around the boy’s bathroom at 9pm on Valentine’s night, but still. She’s not exactly looking to get caught. “Jaybird?” 
There’s no noise in the bathroom except for the irregular drip of a shower head that hasn’t been turned off quite hard enough. All the money in the world, and Auradon Prep still doesn’t have showers that actually work how they’re supposed to. 
It’s ridiculous. If Mal were in charge of the school budget she’d be putting all the money into showers. A hot shower and a  fireplace in every dorm, so that none of the students have to feel cold if they don’t want. That’s the budget priorities Mal would have. Warmth, and then food. The dining hall could stand to leave leftovers out longer after meals. 
…princesses don’t think about food. She’s been around Evie long enough to know that one. Princesses are tiny and perfect without even trying. Princesses eat salad and fruit and don’t order fries with anything. Princesses are the sort of people the king is supposed to be dating, and Mal is never, ever going to become that sort of person. 
“Mal?” 
Mal does not jump. She just— startles. Just a little. “Hey.”
There’s a smile playing at the corner of Jay’s mouth. “Hey yourself. I thought you’d be out with Ben still.” 
“You know price charming,” Mal waves a hand. “Had to have me home by midnight or else he was afraid I’d turn into a pumpkin.” 
“It’s nine thirty.” 
“Localized curse. The younger you are, the earlier it thinks you should be home. We picked nine, just to be safe.” 
“You can just say you had a bad date, killer,” Jay says. “I’ll be your alibi. You need a shovel?” 
Mal snorts. “It didn’t go that badly, give me some credit. I just freaked out when he started talking about love. While we were on a date to talk about love.” 
Fuck. 
A lot more of the evening makes sense when she frames it that way. None of the bullshit they’ve found online talks about dating the king of the entire country, but there’s a lot of website with mind-numbing names like psychology today and buzzbees news that make it very clear how important Auradon brats think nonverbal communication is. 
She went on a date. On Valentine’s Day. 
With Ben. 
“…Killer?” 
Focus. 
“Fuck off.” Mal snaps reflexively. “I’m fine. Just. Plotting.” 
Jay dodges around her for a pile of fabric, which reveals itself to be his Auradon-blue team hoodie. “You wanna plot somewhere a little better?” 
“What I want is to go home, but I’m not going to get that,” Mal says thoughtfully. “I was going to ask you to spar with me, but if you’ve got any better ideas I’m open to hearing them.” 
“Breaking and entering.” Jay says immediately. “We should blow this place. There’s that all-ages club in town—”
“If I have to touch another human being I’m going to scream.” 
Jay touches her arm deliberately, a sustained pressure that doesn’t even read as touch, just comfort. Mal drinks it in like he’s pouring the comfort directly onto all the jagged, awful pieces of her soul. “I’m not a human being?” 
“Shut up. You’re mine, it’s different.” 
“You’re mine, then.” 
There’s a piece of her heart that fits perfectly again the broken edges of his. Mal couldn’t let go of Jay if she tried, not for anything in the world. Not for her mother breathing fire at them, not for Fairy Godmother insisting that it’ll be good for them to make other friends, and not for a stupid holiday that says she’s only supposed to be tied to one person, and not even the one holding on to her right now. 
“Sure.” Mal agrees, because she can’t put words to the enormity of feelings she’s experiencing. Villains don’t have feelings, but she’s reformed now, and it’s harder to describe the feelings with words than it is to have them. “We can sneak out, see what trouble we can find.” 
“You’re all the trouble I need, killer.” Jay says, too honest. “I’ll take you out of here whenever you need. Wherever you want.” 
“Sap.” 
“Princess.” 
“Do I look like a princess to you?” Mal leans back to gesture at herself. The sweatshirt she stole isn’t Auradon-blue like Jay’s. It’s an old one, ratty in the way that all their old isle stuff is, and nearly transparent at the elbows. The seams are held together with Evie’s neat machine stitching, but the thread is three different shades of red and grey all mashed together, and there’s a hole in the edge of the hood that’s exposing the soft inside of it. Her sneakers are a size too big, and laced tight to compensate. Her hair is still a mess from the violent undoing that she’d subjected it to, and she can’t be bothered to try and tame it, not when her chest is bursting with feelings that don’t have any place to go except for out of her body, in tears or screams or whatever violence she’s able to inflict that will drive the awful right feeling out. 
“The prettiest princess in all the land,” Jay says, and jumps back before the words are even out of his mouth, out of the range of Mal’s swipe. “C’mon, killer. You’re the fiercest baby dragon I know. Come out with me. We can find trouble somewhere better than this.” 
"You're trouble already," Mal grumbles, but there's no bite to the words. She wants, wholly and completely, to be somewhere else. "The gates are locked for the night, you know." 
"No problem. Besides, you can just say you're on an important errand for the king and get through all the school security." 
"I could," Mal agrees. It's not like she's afraid of a little misplaced power when she can wield it. "But it's more fun to sneak out." 
Jay's grin is a bright flash in the darkness. "Hey, I've got a stupid idea." 
Mal grunts. "Shoot." 
"I could toss you over the fence." 
"The twenty foot fence." 
Jay shrugs. "It's more like twelve feet. At least according to the build specs." 
"Which you came across..." 
"Totally legally. They're in the library, if you know where to look for 'em." 
"You're impossible," Mal sighs. "Okay, once you toss me how are we getting you over?" 
"I'll jump." 
Over the twelve foot fence. "Sure, and when you break your leg falling back down?" 
"You'll magic me back together again. Humpty-dumpty this shit." 
"I don't think you actually know that rhyme."
"I know your rhymes," Jay shoots back. "You've got magic for levitation in the spellbook, yeah?" 
"I don't have the spellbook with me, wise guy." Mal points out. "I'm not even wearing my own shoes right now, what makes you think I memorized magic that'll get us over the fence?" 
Jay's eyes are too bright. She's going to have to use a spell just to hide him, and the magic will burn her out, and they'll get stuck on the wrong side of the fence, and-- that's what she would think, if she were Jane, or someone will less awesome magic powers. She's Mal of the Isle, and she's got this shit under control. 
"Dragon magic," Jay says cheerfully, like it's not late and they're not doing something totally against all of the rules they're supposed to be learning by sneaking out to the city. "I trust you, killer." 
"I could kill you," Mal grumbles, but she raises her hands and lets the magic gather there, blue-green sparks catching on her fingertips as she pulls the spell out from her mind. "Make this boy as light as air, hop the fence without a care." 
The magic falls over Jay in a net of shimmering sparks. They absorb in after a second, but the look suits him. Mal spares a thought for her sketchbook, which is tucked away in her locker with the rest of the books she hasn't had the time to touch in weeks, and the drawing her fingers are itching to make. "You can hop it now. You'll be light enough to jump over the fence with a regular leap." 
"Sweet!" Jay turns and drops to a knee. "Hop on." 
"Piggyback? Seriously?" 
"No better way to hop it together. Unless you'd rather I throw you over."
It's dangerous, and not just physically. Mal's been doing a pretty fucking good job at squashing down the feelings she's not supposed to have for her best friends, but this... 
She's emotionally illiterate, but Jay's offer to take her out tonight is like a picture book. Or one of those furniture instructions that doesn't even have language, just pictures to follow. 
He cares about you, Mal's traitorous brain whispers. More than your boyfriend does. 
Ugh. 
"Don't do anything stupid," Mal says, even as she's the one climbing on. "The spell should be good for a few leaps, but--" 
"Can't hear you, too busy blowing this place!" Jay grunts, pushing them both upright. "Let's fuckin' go--" 
"Don't--" 
"Hup!" 
Well. At least they're on the other side of the fence now, even if they crashed directly into the school holly bush on the landing. 
"Oww," Jay groans. "Might need a little more practice on that spell. I think there's something wrong with your magic assist on the landing." 
Mal yanks a leaf out of her arm. "There is no magic assist, dumbass. I tried to tell you, but somebody decided to go full steam ahead without listening to my warning. We're over now, and that's what matters." 
Jay mumbles something unintelligible. She can only assume it's rude, given the circumstances. Ugh, holly leaves are not the hot new accessory of the season, not even when they're doing a levitation act and sticking with a single thorn into her nose.
 "Speak up or shut up, jaybird." 
"I said--" It's impossible to tell in the darkness, but it looks like he might be blushing. The school grounds are supposed to have automatic lights, but a little wire cutting took care of that for them, and they're sneaking out under cover of darkness tonight. Mal's good at knowing her crew, but she can't be sure. "I, uh, you're important. To me." 
"Don't get mushy on me." 
"I'd never. Just. We're sneaking out together, and I wanted you to know, I'd never commit crimes and misdemeanors with anyone else." 
"Liar." 
Jay flashes her a smile, but he's doing the thing where he's got a hand tangled up in his hair, and it makes him look heart-wrenchingly sincere. "Yeah, but not to you." 
Oh, gods. "Don't go having feelings on me," Mal says, swallowing down the wobble that wants to creep into her voice. "I can't handle it. Not tonight, please." 
Just like that, Jay's posture melts into something different. Not quite his usual confidence, but something closer to normal. "Sure. No feelings. I can do that." 
"I don't--" Mal scrubs a hand over her eyes. "I didn't mean that you can't have feelings, just. I can't be the one to handle them tonight. I'll do whatever you want tomorrow, just-- can we just go be somewhere else tonight? I can't handle all this lovey stuff." 
Jay's shoulders melt even further. Mal can't look him in the eye, she can't, she won't-- 
He's smiling. His hand is so, so warm in hers. "Killer." 
"I'm sorry." 
He shrugs. "Whatever. You're allowed to have a bad night. I'll take you out, we can forget this ever happened tomorrow. Easy." 
"You should have someone better," Mal cries, and the horrible realization that she's crying sets in. "I don't want feelings for you!" 
"shit," Jay whispers, so quietly that Mal is sure she wasn't supposed to hear it at all. "Dragon, we don't have to do feelings like the Auradon brats. You can just be mine, and I can be yours, and we don't have to do any of the mushy shit that's freaking you out. We can just run away." 
"Together." 
"Yeah. Unless you spelled somebody else over the fence while I was distracted." 
Mal wipes the sleeve of her stolen hoodie across her nose. "Ugh, no. I don't use magic for just anybody." 
"See, there you go. I'm honored to be worthy of your magic, your royal evil-ness." 
“Fuck off,” Mal groans, and then before she can lose her nerve she steps close enough to cup his face in her hands. There’s no magic this time, but Jay’s skin is hot and soft under her palms, and it feels like there should be magic between them. “I’m the worst girlfriend in the world, so I won’t ever put you through that. I’m selfish, and I’m flaky, and I can’t say that I love you, and I can’t ever promise that I’ll be able to say it.” 
Jay’s face is a thundercloud. “Did Ben say you needed to say it back?” 
“No, but— Ben’s not here right now. That’s the point. He’s not the person I run to when everything in the world is too much for me to handle. Ben’s sweet and all, but he’s not who I want to be with when I’m upset. Can you imagine what he’d say if I suggested running away from the grounds?” 
“What ho good chap, let me summon a car to escort you from the venerable grounds of our fine institution,” Jay picks up her thread, mocking. “And yeah, I guess when you put it that way, it’s pretty silly to think about Ben taking care of you.” 
Mal sucks in a breath. “Exactly. He’s sweet, but I don’t know how to deal with sweet, and it feels like the pressure of it is killing me. You know how to push back when I’m being a monster, and I don’t know how to fit that into one of the relationship boxes I’m supposed to use here.” 
Jay tips his head into her hands. “We could make our own box.” 
“We could.” 
“I wouldn’t ask you to be my girlfriend.” 
Mal leans in. “I know,” she tells the space between Jay’s parted lips. “I know.”

thetimesinbetween replied to your post:
(1) please feel free to utterly disregard any/all of this!
(2) i saw this and my heart & soul squeezed because that fucking SUCKS, that breaks my heart, and i want to. like. stuff you in a burlap sack and throw you over my shoulder and take off running. GET OLDCOYOTE OUTTA THERE <3 <3 <3 <3 <3
(3) your brain might be straight-up, like, panicking/sabotaging your happiness in hopes of re-establishing whatever emotional state it has decided is safe. (the vibe: “oh, you’re feeling HAPPY? don’t you know it’s NOT SAFE to be happy? if you’re HAPPY, what NEXT? if you’re HAPPY, then you’re CAPABLE, you’ll have to DO [SOME SCARY THING]. AND you’ll have to do [WHATEVER] and in order to do [THAT THING], you’ll have to BE VULNERABLE.” and so on and so on.)
(4) to be clear, i could absolutely be wrong about this!!! it’s your brain!!! *my* brain loves to do this shit and in my opinion IT IS THE FUCKING WORST.
(5) ok i am currently in a DBT skills group. (this is where me and like 8 other people who are also Severely Struggling and #mentallyill all get together and learn from our 2 intrepid and deeply gay instructors how the fuck to cope, in practical ways, with being alive. and perhaps even. like. build lives we enjoy.) anyway, so, in this group, i learned about a (frankly sort of mindblowing) mechanism called “opposite action.” which is basically a way to decrease the intensity of an emotion.
important caveat: opposite action only really works when (a) you yourself WANT to decrease the intensity of the emotion in the first place, (b) the emotion in question isn’t, like, totally aligned with reality in the first place OR, even if it is aligned with reality, acting on it still wouldn’t help you. (like, imagine this sort of thing: ’ugh it totally makes sense that i feel this way, and it totally makes sense that feeling this way makes me want to do X, but doing X is really REALLY not gonna help me right now, fuuuUUUUUCK.’)
wow. i am not an expert. this is hard to explain. i looked for youtube videos on this for like. half an hour minimum. and they all sucked. YIKES. ✌️sdfsas;kjsasdfs. so, if you are fascinated and/or this seems useful, here is a uhhh fuckin pdf full of charts and bulleted lists: static1.squarespace.com…
if you start on p. 251 of the PDF (“Overview: Changing Emotional Responses”), that should actually properly explain what i’m talking about. I wish I could beam knowledge that I have directly into your brain bc opposite action is very cool actually, and i have done it multiple times and found it helpful, but i am literally linking you to a textbook rn i am so sorry lmao. again please feel free to ignore this :’) <3 <3
(6) in conclusion, absolutely fuck anything sabotaging your joy. you were HAPPY!!! you LOVED doing this thing!!! i want to be like, “i bet you are not stupid actually and also i remember liking your writing, way back when, and i bet it is not bad so THERE,” but like. that doesn’t even matter!!! you could write and then never reread it and never share it, and if it made you enjoy being alive, that’s already Everything.
loving something you are doing while you are doing it…that’s the juicy fucking meat of life!!!!! i am glad you had that & i hope you will have it again & i trust that you will. and just generally i’m rooting for you <3 okay goodnight <3 /end
bless you for all of this, and for the link, i will absolutely check it out and see if it works for me! it sounds SUPER useful and god might be exactly what i need because these emotions are Not Serving Me at all and i want them taken out and shot fjkdls i just want to feel like i used to feel about all this but i don't think that will come until i can write, and publish, and have people read it and be like This Is Not Awful Actually but in order to get there i have to be brave enough to put it out there and I am NOT right now i am a snivelling mess
anything that can help me get out of the snivelling mess stage is more than welcome <3 and beyond that, just, thank you so much for taking the time to say all this it made my day and makes me feel so much better already

I guess this counts as an emergency request??
I just broke my *almost* 2 month streak of being clean from self harm and- one of them are really deep (I cleaned it don’t worry) but I just feel like I’m on the verge. Clinging onto life by a threat, sorry for the small rant.
Could you write suga, kakashi and tendou dealing with a s/o with the same problem? Thanks so much.
Yes it does count as an emergency request!!
Thank you for trusting me with your secret, I do hope things have started to get better for you.
If not, I’m right here by your side.
While I don’t know exactly how it is to suffer from this issue, I try my best to understand so I can help.
We stand with you, Anon.
I hope that by the time you get this, you’re back on a big streak :)

When Suga learned about your mental health struggles, It was definitely a day that opened his eyes.
He had never experienced this himself, so he didn’t exactly know what to do or say.
But, he did his best to be right by your side as everything started going downhill. You never felt as lost as you thought you should have, knowing that your boyfriend was always with you.
That is… until Nationals came around.
Koushi was very busy with the team; you couldn’t blame him for it at all. This meant, however, that he would see you a lot less, check in a lot less, text you a lot less.
You thought it wasn’t fair to blame your struggles on him, so you kept to yourself.
You told yourself that you were fine. You told yourself that no matter what happens, your boyfriend still loves you.
You could tell yourself that all day, but it didn’t stop your brain from completely ruining your happy thoughts.
Eventually, you couldn’t take it anymore; the bad thoughts got the best of you. You did what you thought was best, resorting back to something that instantly comforted you.
So, there you sat: laying on the cold tile of the bathroom floor, trembling as the item mocked you and your struggles.
This time, you really messed it up. You had done more, and worse than you normally would do. This shook you to your core.
Despite your panicked state, you rationalized one good thing: calling your lover. You slowly picked up your cellphone, arms vibrating wildly.
“C-call Kou-shi.” You whispered into the voice control feature. To your instant relief, the receiver picked it up and the dial tone echoed throughout the silent bathroom.
“Hi (Y/N)! Can I call you back? I’m right in the middle of-“
“K-Koushi. Help.” You whimpered
Your lover went silent.
Suddenly, you heard rustling and yelling from the other side of the line. “Daichi! I gotta go, now!” “We’re two days from nationals!” “I can’t stay, Daichi! (Y/N) might be hurt!” “Never mind then, Go now, quickly.”
“I’m coming my love, please don’t move.”
The agonizing time spent on the floor was all worth it when you heard the lock to your front door turn.
“(Y/N)?!” Suga called from outside the bathroom, “Where are you my love?”
When you tried to tell for him, your voice broke. You instead could only kick the bathroom door and hope he heard.
He did.
The bathroom door entered hastily, but also as gently as you had ever seen. “Oh gods, I’m right here, sweetheart.” Koushi sat down on the floor right behind you, cradling you in an embrace.
“I’m so sorry that it had to come to this. You’re so much stronger than this, okay? You must’ve been dealing with so much and I feel awful that I wasn’t here for you. I am so sorry for letting it get this bad.” He whispered, rubbing your upper arms.
“This doesn’t define your progress, do you hear me? One little slip doesn’t mean that all hope is lost for you. I am proud of you for going as far as you did. I love you so much, and we’re going to get through this together.” He gently kissed the side of your neck.
“Wha’ about pr-practice?” You mumbled.
“I barely play. Daichi knows that you needed me, so he’s okay if I have to go sometimes. Besides, no matter what happens or how far I go, I can’t choose volleyball over you again. And before you say I didn’t, we wouldn’t be in this situation if I had just been a better support system to you.”
“So I, Koushi Sugawara, promise you, (Y/N) (L/N), to be by your side no matter what.” He locked his pinky with one of your own. “We’ll get through this, together.”

Being in love with the great Copy Ninja was never an easy task.
Constant worries about his health and well-being clouded all of the pleasant memories that you shared with him.
But, despite all your worries, Kakashi and his students love you to bits.
You never told you lover about your mental health issues, not wanting to add anymore burdens onto him.
So, as life began a downward spiral, you could only suffer in silence. You didn’t want to tell his students either. Mainly out of their own sake, but part of you worried that they would tell their sensei.
When team 7 left for the Land of the Waves, you were left at home in your lonesome.
At first you were okay. Kakashi had written to you and sent home his dogs to deliver the letter. But, when his dogs suddenly ran out of the village, you feared something had happened.
So on top of your mental health struggle, you worried about the love of your life and his students’ safety.
The world fell on your shoulders, and you fell back onto something that always brought you relief. This time was different though, you had done much more and much worse than usual.
You lay in the bathtub, fully clothed and shaking. Tsunade would always help you with the cuts that “appeared”, but deep down she knew the truth.
You had no way to contact either of them in this moment, though. You could only sit and pray that you didn’t pass out or that you had done something fatal.
As you sat in the bathtub, gently running water along the cuts on your arm, you jumped as you heard the lock turn to your apartment.
“Oye, it’s me.” You heard a stoic voice project, “Where are you?”
You gasped and turned off the water quickly, jumping to your feet and rushing to lock the bathroom door. In the process, you lost your footing and fell back down.
The bathroom door opened within a second, revealing the worried face of your lover, “(Y/N)? What happened? Why are you wearing clothes in the shower?”
“I don’t-“ you looked down at yourself, blinking in and out of reality.
“Oh dear, you’re soaking wet and-“ that’s when Kakashi saw the blood that stained the clear water. “(Y/N)… what happened?”
You immediately bursted into tears, gripping the sides of the bathtub. “ ‘Msorry, ‘Kashi. I-I was just so wor-worried about yo-ou.”
“What happened? Why are you apologizing?” He knelt down beside the bathtub and gently picked you up out of it. “Let’s get you into some dry clothes.”
He carried you wordlessly to your bedroom, placing you down on your bed shortly after. He grabbed you a fresh set of pajamas from your wardrobe and helped you to slowly peel the wet clothes off of your body.
“Wait- Kakashi, I’ll do my top.”
“I really don’t mind. This isn’t a time to worry about being lewd, I’m only trying to help.”
“No really I can-“
It was too late. Kakashi had already pulled your top off and was holding your hand. “My love… why didn’t you tell me you needed help?”
“No, ‘Kashi it’s not-“
“(Y/N) please don’t lie to me. I want to protect you.” His voice was soft as he moved a hand to cup your cheek.
“I’m sorry… there was nothing else I could’ve done. I-I was clean for so long but… I just got so worried and-“ as you continued to speak, Kakashi noticed the tears that threatened your lash line.
“Hey. It doesn’t matter now, I’m right here.” He pulled you in close to his warm figure, taking off his jacket and placing it on you. “You’re safe, and so am I.”
Your lover held you close to his body as he consoled you.
“This doesn’t define you or your progress. You’re still the kickass person I fell in love with, truly, I’m not ever leaving your side, especially not when you’re feeling so lowly. I am so sorry that you’re having to go through this alone.” His sweet whispers made you feel safe and appreciated.
“I hate to imagine you suffering alone. Next time you’re feeling this way, please don’t hesitate to talk to me. I want nothing more for you to feel safe and loved, because that is what will make me truly happy.”
“I love you, Kakashi.” You hugged him tight and then sat up on your bed.
“And I love you more. Shall we get you into some more comfortable- er… some clothing?”
You chuckled and took his hand, “I think that’d be wise.”

Mister Guess Monster himself has a keen eye and an attention to detail.
So, you couldn’t exactly hide your struggles from him.
Whenever you’d even seem remotely upset, there was a cupcake in your locker the next day.
Your boyfriend would constantly check in on you. Even if you were just resting, he’d ask if there was anything he could do for you.
You had to admit, feeling this loved helped you immensely. But, it didn’t immediately drown your demons.
No matter how much Tendou tried tirelessly, he couldn’t help you to rid your internal troubles. Instead, he could only offer support from the side lines, and promise to be at your side when you needed him.
Unfortunately, a day came when you did end up needing that help. You had resorted back to an old comfort tactic, going much further than you had wished to.
To your dismay, you had forgotten that your boyfriend was in the middle of a heated match. You wished in your heart that you hadn’t done it, but you couldn’t undo the past.
Regardless, you shakily picked up your phone and dialed his number. The dial tone mocked you. You could only lay trembling, hoping, praying that Satori would pick up.
“Hello, Starshine! Thank you for the call! It’s a good time too, we’re in a time out between sets.”
“H-hey, ‘Tori.” You replied shakily, “How many s-sets are left?”
“Just one my darling, why? Are you alright?” You could practically hear the look of confusion on his face.
“I-im fine! Im g-good here.” You choked as tears rushed to your eyes. Damn it, you couldn’t lie to him!
“Where are you?” His tone changed to a more serious one.
“Ho-home.”
“Don’t go anywhere, okay?”
“S-Satori what a-are you-“
Before you could finish your sentence, you heard muffled talking on your boyfriend’s end. However, due to the severity of your cuts, you felt too woozy to even pick up what he was saying.
Within ten minutes, your front door opened and a pair of feet rushed toward you.
“Starshine? It’s me! Where are you?” Tendou’s voice sounded frantic.
“H-here!” You managed to whine as your tears suddenly returned.
The bathroom door opened to reveal your lover, who quickly knelt down next to you. “Is it safe for me to touch you right now?”
“Hold me…” you whispered, “Satori, p-please help…”
Your boyfriend took you wordlessly in his arms, and rocked you back and forth gently. “Don’t worry, you’re safe with me now.”
“But what about-“
“To hell with the set! You’re my sweetheart. If you need help, I’ll be right at your side no matter what!” The red-haired boy beamed.
“I’m sorry…” you whispered, cuddling close to him.
“Never apologize for struggles you can’t control, Starshine. Your goals and journey isn’t portrayed by one shortcoming. This may be a bump in your road, but it isn’t going to completely stop your positive flow.”
“I’m so sorry that you were going through this. I wish wholeheartedly that I could just remove whatever struggles you’re facing. That way, I’d know that you’re doing well and not faking it for me.”
“I’m not f-“
“You were. It’s okay. I know I was busy with volleyball, so you didn’t want to seem troublesome. But (Y/N), I assure you that you’re on my mind first and foremost all of the time. It’s just you and me against a great big scary world.”
“Hey” Tendou said, wiping your tears with his thumbs.
“Yeah?”
“We’re gonna get through this.” And before you could register the movement, your lover had gently pulled up his shorts leg to reveal a large collection of scars, “Together.”
You enveloped him in a hug, “Together.”

to cross running water is a very intriguing title i would like to know more <3
g-d okay so tcrw is my behemoth black sails canon retelling where everything is the same except flint is a vampire
thomas was also a vampire but miranda is human. she's flint's only food source because he has a whole Thing about not drinking from his crew (partially because he doesn't want anyone to KNOW that he's a vampire, and partially because drinking someone's blood releases this sort of aphrodisiac venom that makes it feel Really Really Good to the human so that they're more willing to let you drink their blood again and flint is. closeted. lmao. he's in the gay closet AND the vampire closet)
I plan to alternate back and forth between miranda's pov and flint's pov until miranda dies, and from there I'm not sure if I should introduce silver's pov as well or just ride it out to the end in flint's pov
this was the first black sails fic I started writing but it's such a huge undertaking. I started hagfic to avoid working on it lmao
g-d okay I spent way too long trying to decide on an excerpt to share so just. here you go:
“—with his teeth!”
“The fucking accountant?”
“Sounds like a load of shit if you ask me.”
“Good thing nobody asked you, then.”
“We’re really talking about Dufresne? That whiny little bitch with a face like a fat tit?”
“Don’t say that too loud or it’ll be your throat he’s chomping out next.”
“Boys—Mr. Dufresne is our brother, and he fought valiantly today, by any means necessary, protecting your lives and the lives of everyone else on this crew. So if I’m gonna hear you speaking about him, it’ll be with the respect he’s earned. Am I understood?”
“Sorry, Billy.”
“Yeah, all right, sorry.”
“I heard he drank up the blood, the madman. That’s the real nuts, ain’t it?”
“Maybe he’s a proper pirate after all.”
Flint doesn’t even realize he’d stopped walking until he meets his boatswain’s eyes emerging from the mess. He tries his best to look as though he hadn’t been eavesdropping, but some stray concern must remain fixed in his brow, because Billy offers him an appeasing nod and a simple, “The men love a good story; you know how it is,” before he continues on his way.
The question of the story’s truth withers on Flint’s tongue. Likely it’s exaggerated, but to what degree Flint cannot say. It doesn’t matter, really: it’s true if they believe it. How they feel about it, though, that’s the real measure. Flint doesn’t linger long enough to hear if the awe will give way to disgust, can’t much stomach the thought of standing stupidly by the door to hear his men condemn or commend their crewmate sinking his teeth into another man’s throat, tearing it out, lapping up the blood. The scorn and the approval sicken him alike.
Flint returns to his cabin, hoping perhaps to bolt the door and sit staring at his maps until the ink runs and none of it makes sense anymore, until nothing can penetrate the pulsing red haze that fills the space between his brain and his skull. He’s aware, vaguely, that his stomach feels wretchedly empty, but to swallow down a mouthful of blood—even the rich, sweet gift from Miranda—seems an insurmountable task.
But none of that bears fruit anyway, because when he opens the door, it’s to find Mr. Dufresne poring over the books for what Flint is sure must be the dozenth time since the battle concluded. The sound nearly startles the poor boy out of his skin; Mr. Dufresne whips his head up to meet Flint’s eyes as though each footstep were cannon fire. Between the haunted expression and the spare flake of dried blood on his chin, Flint is relieved of all doubt about what exactly Mr. Dufresne endured today.
“My apologies, Captain,” Dufresne says, “I was just finishing up—”
“It’s no matter, Mr. Dufresne.” Flint takes his seat opposite Dufresne, offers him a compassionate smile. “I understand why one might bury himself in work to avoid facing the rabid throng of his crewmates; even their support may be overwhelming.”
Dufresne appears flummoxed—bashful, even. He looks so young.
“From what I’ve heard, the men are impressed,” Flint says. He pauses for effect before he adds, “As am I.”

Summary: you struggle to wrap a gift and Jay helps you
Warnings: none
Tumblr media
You let out a frustrated groan and you pushed a very badly wrapped giftbox away from you. You were sitting on the floor of your stable trying your hardest to wrap some gifts, but you couldn’t do it. Wrapping gifts was hard no matter what method you used it was still difficult to wrap a gift. the tutorials on JorTube made it look so easy but in practice it wasn’t. Your horse who’s stall you sat in front of neighed and looked at the gift. They sniffed it before sliding it back to you if your soul steed could talk like the others they would probably be saying ‘try again’ to you as they slid the box back to you. You sighed and pat your horse you felt like crying you were really frustrated. Your horse nuzzled your cheek trying to make you feel better you smiled sadly, and you continued to pet them. You realized you could take a small break from wrapping you didn’t have to finish now. You would have stood up and go take a small break from wrapping but you were stopped by the front door of your stable opening. You and your horse looked to the door in perfect accidental synchronization. You watched as a white Marwari walked into your stable stopping in front of the door to shake off a bunch of snow. The Marwari looked around seeing you and then your horse it walked over to you stepping over the snow it shook off. You held your hand out and the steed sniffed it before pressing its nose onto the palm of your hand letting out a huff. You pat the horse, and you looked behind them “did you come alone Arcebus?” the Marwari neighed looking behind themselves and you saw their owner walk in. their owner took off their jacket they shook it to get snow off of it adding onto the little pile Arcebus had started. You laughed and looked at the pile “I’m in here trying to hide from the cold weather and the snow” you stood up going to welcome Arcebus’ owner. “But you brought it right into my stable” you looked down at the snow “thanks Jay.” You looked up at the woman and she smiled at you “you’re welcome” she opened her arms, and you walked forward hugging her. You sighed happy to see your girlfriend she made all your stress melt away. Jay rubbed your back kissing your cheek and she looked to Arcebus seeing him and your horse sniff the badly wrapped gift on the ground. She pat your side and you looked to her then to where she was looking “don’t say anything.” You knew your girlfriend you knew she probably had a few words in mind for the awful job you did. Jay let out a small laugh “I won’t” she broke the hug, and you took her jacket from her putting it on. Her jackets were fashionable and comfy…you were definitely stealing this one for a bit. Jay walked over to the gift and just like her horse she too stepped over the snow not wanting to make a mess in the stable. The woman picked the gift up and she looked to you “do you want help?” she wanted to wrap it correctly so badly, but she didn’t want to be rude, and do it unless you wanted her to. You frowned and nodded “I’ve struggled with it the whole day” you walked over to her your smile returning when Arcebus neighed at you and sniffed your pockets looking for treats. Jay sat down on the floor “here sit with me I’ll show you how to do it” before you sat down with her you asked your girlfriend if it was alright to give Arcebus a treat. When she said yes you grabbed a peppermint treat from your pocket and you opened it giving it to Arcebus. You sat down next to Jay, and she began to show and tell you how to wrap the gift. you couldn’t really hear what she was saying because of the crunch from Arcebus eating his treat but you could see what she was doing, and she slowly guided you through it, so you were able to pick something up. You spent the rest of the afternoon wrapping gifts with her and putting nametags on them while talking about random things. Arcebus laid down in an open stall watching the both of you and your horse ate hay as you talked and wrapped gifts. You finished the last gift, and you stretched groaning as your bones popped.
Tumblr media
Jay gathered the leftover wrapping paper, and she stood up going to your storage room to put it away. You stood up as well continuing to stretch your horse neighed and bobbed their head up and down at you. You smiled and pat their neck earning a soft blow of air from them. Pats were nice but what they were asking you for was a treat like the one you gave Arcebus. Your horse sniffed your pockets, and you grabbed a treat from your right pocket. You opened it and you held it in your palm and then you held your palm out to your horse “here buddy” you said to them, and they neighed taking the treat from your hand. To thank you they lifted their lip up giving you a nice smile you laughed and thanked them for the smile. you let out a huff and you almost fell as something pushed you forward. You caught yourself thanks to the door of your horse’s stall and you looked behind you seeing Arcebus who was asking for another treat. You pat the horse “wait” you told him and then you called out Jay’s name when she asked what you wanted you asked her if it was alright to “give Arcebus one more treat.” When she said yes you looked in your pocket finding one last treat. Your horse looked at you neighing and then Arcebus neighed back. It was like they were talking about who got the last treat. You laughed and you split it “you guys can share the last one” you gave one piece to Arcebus and another to your horse “I’ll go and buy more from Mrs. Holdsworth tomorrow.” You watched as both horses happily ate their treat as you waited for Jay. When the woman came back from the storage room you walked over to a gift, and you picked it up. it was the biggest gift in the pile she raised an eyebrow at you in confusion when you walked back over to her holding it out to her. “Christmas is tomorrow” Jay told you still confused, and you laughed nodding “yes I know” you gently shook the box “wouldn’t you like to know what’s in it now though?” Jay laughed and she shook her head “so you made me wrap it just to open it now?” You shook your head as well “I was going to give it to you tomorrow but we both might be busy so…no better time than the present.” Jay sighed and took the gift from you she felt like crying this was such a sweet gesture you saw her eyes get glossy and you frowned “is something wrong?” she shook her head “no it’s just-“ she paused clearing her throat “this is really sweet that’s all” she smiled at you, and you smiled back at her. The woman began to open the gift and Arcebus watched her he let out a snort excited to see what was inside. When Jay opened it, she laughed softly “a tie?” she took it out of the box “such a small thing needs this big of a box?” she loved the tie she couldn’t wait to wear it but why was it in such a big box? You leaned against your horse’s stall door, and you spoke “keep looking!” Jay looked back inside the box, but she didn’t see anything in it “there’s nothing else in here?” you panicked for a second thinking ‘did I forget the other thing?’ but your panic was short lived as you saw Arcebus dig into the giftbox tearing off a black piece of carboard revealing the secret under it. it looked like a book Jay thanked Arcebus for helping her and she grabbed the book it was heavy she needed two hands for it. the woman looked to Arcebus, and she put the tie inside the box and then she put the box on his back. The Marwari huffed at her, and she pat his shoulder “it’s just for a minute” she turned her attention back to the book and you were excited for her to see what was inside. Jay opened the book, and she went wide eyed as she saw a bunch of pictures of your first date on the first page, she flipped through the pages seeing many more pictures of all the dates you went on and of your horses. She looked back at you her eyes glossy again “a memory book?”
Tumblr media
you nodded “I worked on it all year! Took me a while to find all the pictures and add the recent ones but it was fun!” you looked down at the page she left off on seeing a picture of your horse and Arcebus sharing a fruit cup on Fort Pinta’s beach. You sighed you missed summer it was fun, and it was warm, and you and Jay had more free time. Things were still fun, but they were now cold and busy. When you looked back at Jay, she was crying you frowned “what’s wrong? Do you not lik-“ you were cut short by her hugging you. She kissed your cheek and then she kissed you which surprised you, but the kiss was welcome “I’m guessing it’s good?” You laughed and she nodded trying to wipe her tears away. “it’s wonderful” she held you tight still crying from the sweet gift and you wiped away her tears kissing the corner of her lips. You told her you loved her, and she told you she loved you more to which you replied with “enough to let me keep this jacket?” you were still wearing her jacket you loved it. She laughed and shook her head wiping away any leftover tears “no not enough to let you keep my jacket.” You huffed and kissed her cheek “well it was worth a try.” You rest your chin on her shoulder and she kissed your temple you let out a happy sigh “hey Jay.” She rubbed your back one hand still holding the book “what?” you kissed her shoulder “Merry Christmas” you hummed and then you said, “well actually it’s still the 24th so Merry Christmas eve.” Arcebus neighed from behind Jay, and he broke the hug by getting in between you two he wanted to be loved on too. You laughed as you heard Jay tell Arcebus to go away and you hugged the silly horse wishing him a merry Christmas eve as well.

I’m good, today was good despite work being a mess towards the end of the day. I work for a print company and our printer for posters and blueprints ran out of in an hour and a half before closing and we didn’t have any more in the entire building right as 3 people came in with massive walk in orders, luckily they were all pretty nice about it when I explained why I couldn’t help them. I got an awful headache dealing with that though so when I got home I laid down for a short nap and accidentally slept for 5 hours and now it’s almost midnight lol. How are you though?
I am really sorry to hear that happened and I can only imagine how stressed you were, but I am glad that people were nice and understanding about it (if they weren't we finna pull up hehe) but!! I am really glad they were nice and didn't blame you or went ballistic how people usually end up being. I am sorry about your headache as well but I am happy you had a short nap of 5 hours :D You deserve all the rest and your body obviously needed it so I am really glad to hear you are taking care of yourself and I hope headache is gone today and that your day will go smoothly without any issues! Remember to take breaks and hydrate, have some snacks and take care of yourself as well :) <3
I am doing good, I have some requests to work on so I will probably write most of the day unless my brain decides to become poopy and distract me lol, but we rolling :D
Also, I saw you are interested in biology! So I was wondering what are you currently studying or what is your favorite type of biology? :D <3

Basic Rules:
DNI if you didn’t read the rules or are a personal without a roleplay sideblog. Pretty simple rule.
Selective, private, mutuals only. I dunno who it's okay to rp with if you don't follow back! This is sort of a comfort thing? I'm worried I'll bother people is all!
No God Modding. The usual rule!
OCS ARE VERY WELCOME HERE. Give. GIVE ME THEM.
Oh gosh. I'm crossover friendly this wasn't posted in my rules before I'm sorry but yes! YES! I do crossovers as long as I know the media your character is from or can snoop a wiki for info.
DO NOT LIE YOUR AGE. Dear god please don't pretend you're 18 dear young ones! If I hear of it from anyone I'll block you so fast.
Reblog memes from the source! Reblog memes from the source! Reblog memes from the source! Reblog memes from the source!
Please please please tell me who you’re sending at me if you’re a multi!
Please also tell me who you wanna rp with since I’m a multi lol
If you wanna soft block me, please HARD BLOCK ME. Thank you! It's so I don't accidentally refollow you, that's all.
I’m not in high school, please keep your OOC drama off my dash. :) I'm 32. I'm here for fun.
IC drama is very much appreciated and loved.
I do post OOC and memes often but I’m trying to cut back and delete my OOC posts pertaining to real life after 24 hours. I'm bad at this and I am sorry.
Tumblr media
Shipping Rules:
Ahem. I love crack ships that evolve into real ships
I also love one off crack ships that don’t go anywhere.
One sided love is fun
I also like angst shipping.

I do suffer from anxiety but I do my best to reach out, but sometimes I don’t. I do like to send in memes as ice breakers. I'm shitty at talking to people... Have multiple mental illnesses plus physical ones but... yeah I'm a socially awkward turd for brains. I'm sorry if I don't reach out first or anything. Keep an eye out! Sometimes I become DM friendly. :)
Plotting isn’t my thing but if you’d like to plot something please ask. I have numerous opens. Oh just cause I have anxiety and the like doesn’t mean I don’t wanna rp btw. I just feel like I’m gonna be awful and yeah.
Tumblr media

I also tag holidays as triggers. Valentine’s, Father’s and Mother’s day, Christmas. If I need to tag anymore holidays I will if asked!
My triggers are as follows: “papa”, MLP, Father’s day.
(I have reasons and I’m not even sure they’re even valid. I can explain if asked.)
If you are a multi with MLP characters please tag your rps, thanks. (It also doesn’t mean I won’t rp with you cause you have those characters :) )
If you’re rping with an MLP character, please tag the roleplay.

Hey sorry, this is FictionalFormerAthleteEddie!Anon (FFA lmao) just wanted to make sure regarding my previous ask
I have to apologise if it came out a bit of a mess
Honestly my insomnia has been so bad this week so feeling pretty fried but I know you said You had a long train journey so wanted to send something for the day of
I just want to be clear - same as yourself - I’m not into any slob, health related or (this one feels like I should particularly bring it up for the kink dump I sent) I’m not a fan of or trying to imply any sort of ruination kink, it’s not something I like myself or am interested in, but more importantly this is your blog so wouldn’t want to send you any kink stuff that you were uncomfortable with
I just can’t remember what I sent and want to make sure my language didn’t imply as such - coz I know you have also said that is a no go for yourself too - and I know it’s a fine line sometimes and I do try to be careful with my words but again….brain fried 🥲
To be clear - and again - can’t remember what I wrote - I just like the idea of a beefy Steve,, sweaty and focused, working out, with a spectating cocky, soft, spoilt & lazy Eddie just talking a big game, playing that he’s oblivious to his own physique opposite Steve’s.
It’s also why I was so cautious about putting in a lot of consent and communication footnotes but like ….I don’t want to get the sads in this beautiful kink space - I think I’ve slept like 9 hours in the past 5-6 days 🥲🥲💝💝💝
Love your work though! Big fan and hope you have a safe trip!!
Awe FFA (lol)🏋️ do not apologize!
I loved your ask and I completely understood it. I knew it wasn't slob or ruination or anything, you expressed yourself really well and I thought it was super hot. It was mostly a roleplaying and contrast thing, which, I mean chef's kiss!!
Beefy sweaty Steve putting his cute annoying Fatboy in his place is an ideal scenario for me. I love bouncing around ideas and it gives me inspiration to try to write longer form stuff, so never hesitate to send stuff, I always get around to answering eventually hahaha.
Thank you for checking in with me about it though, I get the sense that a lot of the folks who send asks tend to sort of get what I'm about and what we all are sort of into so hopefully we don't have to worry too much about squicking each other out.
For example one of my friends knows that I'm really into bullying and teasing as a kink with a lot of my pairings and sends me really good asks about it. I can't guarantee that folks who follow me will be as into some of the more aggressive teasing and bullying that I like to write (like f-slur stuff, mean descriptions, but like beneath it all there's still attraction) so I'll be sure to put content warnings and include a read more break just to make sure!
I'm hoping that my weird little corner of Tumblr can be a space for all of us to collectively and safely explore the beauty and sexuality of wg/size kink 🥰🥰🥰 we are all goblins respectfully

Hello, winter anon here!!
Yes watch the wilds!!! Even though it got cancelled :/. I will never get over that.
Red is such a great album!!! I love it so much. Fearless has a special place in my heart as well because I listened to it at a young age. Omg you became a fan during lover era that’s lovely!!! The lover era had such a nice aesthetic. I understand why you became more of a fan during folklore and evermore era, they were such beautiful exquisite albums! Sitting alone while listening to lover must be so nice and beautiful, I love that!!
I became a fan when I was in elementary school during the debut album. I fell in liver with her story telling in her songs and lyricism.
I’m glad your finals are done!! Yay!! How many finals did you take and for which classes if you don’t mind sharing?
A caffeine headache!!! Nooo I’m sorry that must feel awful. It’s nice that you are donating blood though!! Do you donate every year or just once in a while? (You don’t have to answer if that’s too personal, I understand).
when debut came out i was almost four... i am feeling so tiny rn.
so i had one in my comparative politics class, which everyone told me would be the hardest 200 level polysci class i took, and i thought it was cake. i only needed a 70% to get an a in the class and i've gotten a 98 and 99 on the first two tests so feeling pretty good about that. then the same day i had one in my islamic art and architecture class, and i think i did well enough on that. i also had one for my arabic class that was basically just write three paragraphs about random stuff (future career, fav trip) and the hardest part was def coming up with stuff to talk about, not the arabic. in my other classes i had projects!
so funny story, i did not successfully donate today bc my pulse was... wait for it... 120 bpm and i only got it down to 115 bpm after sitting for like ten minutes breathing deeply... so that was annoying. i try to donate every two or three months, but sometimes that gets messed up by my screwy brain (they basically always have to take my pulse more than once) or international travel (i couldn't donate for a year after i came back from peru bc i was in an area that has a risk of malaria). i try to do it bc i'm O+ and we've basically been in a blood shortage since the pandemic started, and my family donates (my grandmother donated over five GALLONS in her lifetime!!) but if they decide to change the regulations and let queer men donate i might stop bc it's just such an awful experience for me. there's only so many times you can have the red cross workers look at you with pity bc you're so wound up.

Could i maybe request Ango, Kunikida, Dazai, and Edgar Allan Poe for a short Headcanons?
This is one of those ones that doesn’t have to be long or super detailed, but it was just a cute thought that popped into my mind.
Their crush, who they aren’t dating yet, accidentally letting a cute pet name slip one day while they’re talking to them. They realize afterwards and are just like, ‘shit.’
I know that may be a little hard to understand so like, for example
Ango: ugh… I’m exhausted
Y/n: awe- baby i bet you are, look at all that paperwork-
Ango: what??
Y/n: shit-
I hope that makes sense! And don’t feel compelled to make them super long! I don’t want you to overwork yourself or burn yourself out!!! Take care of yourself!! Your writing is amazing! Have a great week!
a/n: THIS IS SO CUTE aUgh This actually sparked a scenario for Kunikida... but ofc that shall remain in the drafts for now. Also thank you for being so nice anon! I hope you take care of yourself too <3
accidentally calling them a pet name
Featuring: Dazai, Poe, Kunikida, Ango
Dazai Osamu
"How nice it would be to have some crab right now~"
"Aww, is my baby hungry?"
His eyes would widen for a moment, then a large smile would appear. Seeing you realize what you said amused him. "Why, would you be willing to feed your baby, then?"
This man's flirting game is strong what can I say
The usual banter would come after that, like nothing absolutely embarrassing happened
Deep inside, he was glad to hear you 'flirt back' - almost too sincerely. It's like a reassurance to him, in a way, that you care about him
He'll definitely be able to get you to say it again, so be wary
Edgar Allan Poe
"I really hope Ranpo-kun likes this one..."
"I'm sure he will, sweetie. You're an amazing writer"
He froze. Physically, mentally, emotionally, he stopped functioning. I guess that's the effect of a double kill
Although you were embarrassed, the concern over his current state was much stronger. "P-poe, are you okay?"
He'll be rejuvenated by the slightest tap from your finger. Cue incoherent rambling accompanied by the reddest face you've ever seen
"N-no, you're the sweet one- ahm, no what I meant to say was-"
Please calm him down, somehow. He might never be able to face you for the next four days if he gets too embarrassed
Kunikida Doppo
"Will you be able to submit the report by tomorrow?"
"Of course I can, dear."
He stared at you, and you stared back. Did you really just-
"O-oh I'm so sorry, Kunikida-san. I didn't know what I was thinking..."
"It's alright, Y/N. Just don't say that to any random person, please"
Only say it to him
Dazai managed to get a recording of you saying that (don't ask how) and totally sent it to him. Kunikida said nothing, but you can bet he downloaded it in his phone. May or may not be his alarm in the morning
He thinks about that whenever you two are talking, but he tries his best not to think about it too much or else he himself might call you "dear"
Sakaguchi Ango
"Thank you for helping me, Y/N."
"Sure thing, honey. Anything for you."
...
"W-w-wait Y-Y/N-"
A stammering, blushing mess, fiddling with his glasses and whatnot. You were also a stammering, blushing mess, but at least your brain was working (more than his at least). The wonders of sleep deprivation, you thought
"A-ango-san, m-my apologies. Please forget what I said."
He would not forget what you said. In fact, he'd remember it every time you come by
He'll unconsciously try and suck up to you, hoping that you'd say it again (it never works tho he gets too flustered every time he tries lol)

How the boys SIMP! w/ Bakugou, Kaminari and Todoroki
Request: I got like five requests about several of our favorite boys simping over their girlfriend so yeah, here we are. 
Hi I’m not dead, yet at least. I;m starting to believe that my brain will turn to goo after all the chemistry and biology I’ve been studying. Sorry for not posting, my tumblr decided to be a dick and deleted my queued posts so haha yeah. Anyways my posts won’t be as regural as they used to because school....kill me. Love ya. 💖💖💖
masterlist
rules
warnings: SIMPING
Bakugou Katsuki
Tumblr media
-Okay he is rather subtle with his simping. 
-He won’t straight up kiss the ground you walk on. 
-BUT he will be kinder and a little softer. 
-Maybe sometimes to the point others notice and it’s not a good look on him. 
-Or at least that’s what he believes. 
- “I have a reputation to keep, baby.”
-That was said behind closed doors at 3 am on the rare occassion he stayed past his bed time. 
-And yes he will ignore his bedtime for you. 
-One of his simping tactics. 
-He will cook for you, he will pretend that he’s annoyed that you aren’t eating well enough or healthy.
-So he becomes mama Bakugou and starts cooking for you.
-Bento boxes for school, snacks while you are studying, dinner and breakfast.
-He will teach you how to cook some dishes for when he is not here and you get hungry. 
- “We’re doing your favorite.”
- “Aww Katsuki, you know my favorite.”
- “Shut up dumbass and pay attention.”
-Speaks rather softly after a while, showing you how to correctly cut the ingredients and how to stir the mix without making a mess. 
-He will just leen on the counter and watch you add all the ingredients with that little concentrated pout on your lips. 
-His heart goes oops. 
-He will be so engrossed with your beauty that you’ll have to give him a small shake when you need him. 
-Pretends to enjoy what you’ve made if you messed it up somehow but will give you honest feed back and advice so you make something edible next time.
-You tend to spend the night at his dorm and he loves it. 
-It’s usually on accident.
-You cuddle him while he goes to sleep and your plan is to get up and leave once you have taken your fill. 
-But he is warm and oh so cuddly that you fall asleep as well. 
-He wakes up around ten o’clock everytime to make sure you left and when he still feels you next to him he just lets out the most genuine smile. 
-He will pull you flush to his chest *if you are not already* and take in your scent saying a little I love you before going back to sleep. 
-The next morning he will wake you up before anyone else gets up and walks you to your room. 
-Thankfully you are on the same floor so you don’t have to go far. 
-He always walks with you to and from class no matter his mood.
-He monitors his tone when he can help it and will warn you when his mood is really awful. 
-In general it’s the little things with him not grand gestures and all out simping. 
Kaminari Denki
Tumblr media
-Worships the ground you walk on. 
-All out simping no shame. 
-He will straight up give his soul for you. 
-And he is rather proud of that fact. 
-The polar opposite of Bakugou. 
-And he can get on everyone’s nerves with his simping. 
-Picks you up form your dorm room every morning, carries your bag to class and opens every single door you come across.
-Gives you his food if you show the slightest of interest in his meal. 
- “Denki I just want a bite.”
- “I CAN GET ANOTHER ONE BABY!”
-Calm down sir....calm down. 
-Has canceled game night because you had period cramps. 
-The thing with that is you never actually asked him to come cuddle or something you just mentioned that you were heading to Recovery Girl for some pain killers. 
-Man was waiting you at her office in -0.5 seconds. 
- “I thought you were playing COD.”
- “I canceled.”
- “YOu wHAt?”
-Bakugou legit thinks you are the reason Kaminari keeps blowing them off. 
-That you are some type of overly clingy girlfriend. 
-DENKI IS AN OVERLY CLINGY GIRLFRIEND. 
-Has gone off on a russian dude because while you were playing COD together he said something about girls being really bad at video games. 
-Your man almost got banned.
-He skips class if you’re sick which is rather sweet but simultaneously really really dumb. 
-Aizawa is coming fro his ass in 3....2....1.
-Boy didn’t even reach your door. 
-You just heard your boyfriend’s girlish screams coming from down the hall followed by pleads of mercy. 
-You were -><- this close to going out there to see what was going on but then you heard Aizawa’s monotonous voice and just went back to sleep.
-He later came over and narrated his traumatic experience. 
-Poor baby just wanted to take care of you.
Todoroki Shouto
Tumblr media
-He’s a mix of Bakugou and Denki.
-He likes being subtle and showering with affection behind closed doors but also will be at your beck and call. 
-In your or his room he likes to hold you close like really really close.
-Oh you are studying?
-Will just hug you from behind.
-You are watching something on Netflix?
-Will rest his head on your shoulder. 
-You do the same really because he is a very very touch starved baby and he needs more love. 
-He Likes to bring you food that Fuyumi makes. 
-He visits his sister on the regural so he always or almost always comes back with a small bento box with your name on it in Fuyumis delicate writing.
-Fuyumi loves you and she knows what a simp her baby brother is for you.
-In public he isn’t on Denki’s level.
-Yeah sure he will open the door for you.
-Sure he might ignore everyone else and only answer to you. 
-But that doesn’t make him an immediate simp.
-No no.
-What makes him a simp is the way he treats you during free period. 
-Clingy boy to the fullest.
-And a bonus, will do anything you ask. 
-You are doing a project and you need to test something in extreme heats? He has laready rolled up his sleeve.
-You are thirsty from studying? He is already on his way to buy you a water bottle. 
-He’s more of a protective simp.
-Considering who his father is he really gets protective over you whenever he is around. 
-Also doesn’t like training with you because he doesn’t want to accidently hurt you. 
-The last simp characteristic of his is drum roll......
-Your sleeping schedule. 
-It’s fucked up basically.
-You tend to study until you pass out in his room and he will always carry your to your dorm unless you tell him otherwise. 
-Will risk detention for being out past curfew just to get you to your room. 
-I LOVE HIM!
