Tumblr media
Hangnail on his left index. Remus fights the urge to bite at it by shoving his hand beneath his thigh and it works, sort of. “You’re meant to tip your head forward,” he mutters. “Not backward. The blood isn’t going to—to just go back in.”
Sirius’ eyes flit in his direction; the rest of him stays as is, head thrown back to face the high Hospital Wing ceiling, bloody rag clutched to his nose. The pale skin of his throat, the curve of his Adam’s Apple, slick smear of red down his chin. His shirt, ruined. “I’m pretty sure they say to tilt it back,” he replies, half-crushed into the wad of fabric.
“Well, they’re wrong. And I daresay I’ve had more experience with broken noses that whoever they are.” Sirius’ thigh is pressing into his, they're creasing the starched white hospital bedsheets they're sitting on. “Don’t swallow your own blood, you pillock. For god’s sake, tip your head forward.”
“Oh, god, if it means you’ll shut up—” Sirius swings his face down, “happy now? Fucking hell. If I didn’t know any better, I’d say you were looking to pick a fight with me. And, as you can see—” a wave of his rag-hand, his blood-stained grin, his busted lip, he’s made such a mess of himself for no reason at all, “—someone’s gone and beat you to it, today. Try again tomorrow, and I’ll see if I can fit you in.”
Remus frowns. His hand is getting clammy, and now he’s thinking about the hangnail again. “I don’t know why you’re making jokes. It wasn’t funny at all. I hated it.”
“Well, that’s nice to hear,” Sirius drawls. “My boyfriend hated the bit where a bloke punched me in the face.” He knocks their elbows together. “See, I knew you were the one.”
“I mean it, Sirius. You should’ve just let it be. As if I care what some stupid prat has to say about my blood status—”
“No. No, don’t fucking start, not right now. I care, alright? I do. No one fucking—talks about you, like that, Moony. No one calls you that and just gets away with it. Fucking prick. I’ll fucking kill him. I’ll fucking knock the rest of his teeth out, next time around. Try and stop me.”
Remus watches his jaw work, the muscle ticking away. He looks like he wants to bite something, someone. A strand of hair, plastered to the blood on his cheek. Sirius, his prize-fighter. Sirius, his torn-up boy-saint. His sweetheart, really. Strained leash and snapping jaw.
He untucks his hand and folds two of his fingers over the pinkie of Sirius’ free hand; he’s careful not to graze the raw, scuffed skin of his knuckles. He squeezes.
“Could’ve been worse. I’d rather be called a dirty fucking half-blood than a dirty fucking half-breed. Does it still hurt?”
Sirius shrugs. “Not much. It’s sort of throbbing, a bit. I just hope Pomfrey can set it right again.” He takes the rag away, presents the crooked jerk of his nose, the black gash along the bridge. “Do you still fancy me even now I’m not pretty?”
Remus chews his lip, pretends think it over. “'Spose so,” he decides. “Dunno why.”

▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
"BroZone! BroZone! BroZone!"
You didn't even know why you were here, to be quite frank.
How, out of all the people your friend knew, did she decide you'd be the best pick to attend the silly concert with her? When, in your years of friendship, have you expressed even the slightest interest in BroZone? And why, out of all your options, did you agree to go?
You aren't a fan. You never were a fan; you could really care less about the band until she brought them up and then invited you to attend with her.
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
"How do you not know BroZone? They are literally dominating the music industry as we breathe. There's merchandise and posters of them being sold everywhere—hello, even the grocery store sells merch! Way too expensive compared to other shops... and the material does not feel very great," she ranted, the energetic girl tapping at her cheek.
"But anyway, how do you not know them? Have you been living under a rock?"
Engrossed in the scrapbook under you, retelling the events of your day in the form of glitter and silly fuzzy drawings. You had barely paid any mind to her or her rambling, continuing to draw, cut, and paste away.
The truth is, you had actually heard of the band—hard not to when it's plastered everywhere—but due to your negligence in the conversation, you had been throwing mindless uh-huh's and uh-uh's without a second thought, giving misleading responses.
She called your name with a drawl, flicking your forehead.
"Ow," you mumbled, looking up at her with a pout at the attack. "What'd you do that for?"
This time your name was said in frustration, receiving a smack on your head instead, "I've been talking to you and you weren't listening. I am wasting precious vocals here that I could be instead saving for the concert!"
"What concert—ow!"
"BroZone." She deadpanned.
"Oh, I know BroZone." You looked back down at the scrapbook, glueing and pasting a little mini version of your friend. "Not a fan."
The biggest gasp ever came from the other girl, her hands dramatically coming up and covering her mouth in utter disbelief. With the way she was acting and the hurt on her face, anyone would've assumed that she'd been told someone was dead, and to her, you might as well be.
"Not a fan? How are you not a fan?"
Her eyes widened, and her hands came down to slam shut the book, keen on getting your undivided attention to focus on this very important issue.
"I don't know. Their music is kind of... bland. They're just like any other boyband out there."
"Bland? They are paving the way for music, unlike any band before." she grabbed your face, squishing your cheeks together. "Do you know what the family harmony is?"
"Duh. What, have they been able to achieve it? Because if so, then maybe they are as good as you're telling me."
"Not... yet." she hissed. "But soon!"
"For sure."
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
Finally managing to escape the clutches of your friend, who held on to you for dear life, claiming that the concert was just about to start—which is exactly why you wanted to flee—using the excuse of having to use the bathroom. The screaming would no doubt burst your eardrums and the little sanity you had left.
You mindlessly wandered the mainly empty halls, unsure of where exactly the bathroom was.
The only trolls you found were some security and a few that rushed past you in a hurry, presumably late, compared to everyone else, to the show.
You were tempted to ask where the bathrooms were, but the intimidation of the dull and scary workers overcame that.
You glanced at the exit, a little voice inside your voice irking you to leave, escape it all. Would your friend really miss your absence that much? They'd probably be too enamored and lost in the band to notice.
A step was taken, but not for the exit, with your eyes catching the familiar sign of the restroom. Your lips curled up slightly at the sanctuary, rushing towards it.
It was a family restroom, and it probably wasn't going to be occupied by any families anytime soon; you took advantage of it's vacancy.
Or at least, you assumed it was vacant.
Your hand reached for the handle, gripping, only for it to be pulled without any force, the door almost hitting you right in the face if it weren't for fast reflexes.
"Oh sh*t, I'm so sorry. I didn't think anyone would be out here right now." The other troll spoke fast and anxiously, a hand cupping his face, like he was trying to hide from you.
You were spooked a bit by the sudden scare, unaware of the occupancy, but your racing heart slowly calmed down to its regular beat, offering a smile to calm the other's nerves.
"It's okay, me neither."
A turquoise troll with a yellow puffer jacket and hair, white shorts, and wristbands appeared, getting a good look at him. He didn't just sound nervous; he also looked nervous.
He glanced from the floor to you, "I mean, uh."
His entire person changed in a second; an attempt to look more confident than he actually is was made, a smug smile on his lips as he snapped his fingers, winking, "Just wanted to get away real quick."
Licking your lips, you raised a brow in confusion at the change of attitude and nodded slowly.
"That's nice..."
How do you kindly tell him to get the fuck out of your way so you can get into the bathroom?
His face dropped somewhat at your lack of reaction. A mixture of confusion, relief, and intrigue crossed his features.
"You don't know me?" He blurted, "You're strangely calm."
"No. I'm sorry, have we met before?"
He smirked, shaking his head softly, his tense shoulders dropping as he sighed, "No."
He leaned against the restroom doorframe, eyeing you with interest. "Most trolls would be losing their minds right about now. I'm Clay, by the way."
"Nice to meet you, Clay." You maintained a calm demeanor despite the strange encounter.
He paused, studying your face as if searching for something. "You're not here for the concert, are you? You seem a bit... out of place."
Your eyes shifted, avoiding a direct answer. "Let's just say I'm not the biggest BroZone fan."
His expression shifted, a playful look in his eyes. "Oh, not a fan of the greatest band in the world, are you?"
You chuckled and shook your head.
"I think that's an exaggeration."
Clay grinned, leaning in a bit closer. "They're not just a band; they're a family. They're all about family harmony. Once you get it, you'll understand."
He spoke as if he weren't part of the band himself, amusing both you and him.
Your eyebrow was raised in disbelief. "Family harmony? As in the unachievable? Sounds like a unique selling point."
He chuckled. "You'll see. Maybe you just need to experience it for yourself."
The crowd's cheering grew louder, catching both of you off-guard. His face dropped and he straightened up, putting distance between the two of you once more.
"That's my cue. See you later...?" He waved his hand, urging you for your name with a growing grin as he shimmied past you to the exit, allowing you entry into the bathroom.
"(Y/N)," you nodded. "And that's if I can even find you in that big ass crowd."
"Oh, you'll find me, alright."
And with a wink, he was gone, leaving you wanting for what he meant.
▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃▃
Little did you know, you'd find out exactly what he meant the moment you made it back to your friend. She stood upset, scolding you for taking so long but also praising how you managed to make it back with perfect timing, the concert beginning the moment you arrived.
You groaned, smacking yourself in frustration.
As the concert echoed through the arena, you found yourself oddly drawn to the music, not because it was BroZone, but because there seemed to be a familiar dude on stage. The same one you had encountered in the bathroom just ten minutes ago.
Clay couldn't shake you from his mind.
Even with the crowd chanting his name, the band's name, their screeches deafening, he couldn't help but let his roaming eyes search for yours.
And then he found you.
You stared back up at him in disbelief, and your jaw dropped at seeing him on stage.
He was dancing and singing, and all the while, all his attention seemed to be on you and your reaction. He messed up the lyrics, a small laugh escaping, earning him an unnoticed glare from the leader of the group.
He winked again and smiled, the crowd going crazy for it, unbeknownst to its target.
At that moment, amidst the flashing lights and the cheers of the crowd, Clay fell in love. Not with the fame or the music, but with the unexpected connection he found with you.
He couldn't help but wonder how someone like you, who wasn't even a fan, could make him feel more alive than any crowd ever could.

Tumblr media
“So I’ll see you this weekend then, right darlin’?” Joel Miller, a.k.a. the neighborhood dilf, asks you. You were going for a run when he stopped you right in front of the sidewalk of his house, inviting you to his annual Halloween party he throws every year.
You absolutely loved Halloween, so you couldn’t pass up his offer.
“Of course you will. Can’t wait.” You toss him a smile, and he nods before you’re on your way back to your house, which was only two doors down from his.
It was Monday, so you had to figure out what you were going to be for the party this weekend. You wanted to be something that would catch the older Miller brother’s eye. You’ve been trying for a while now to express your interest in him, and either he’s just very oblivious, or he just doesn’t want you.
You’re hoping it’s moreso not the latter.
Unbeknownst to you, Joel’s younger brother Tommy had pointed it out to him several times. Joel always thought you were so beautiful. He was just apprehensive about asking you out, mainly because he hadn’t been out in the dating scene for awhile. He was rusty when it came to impressing women.
Little did he know, all the neighborhood women would gawk over him every time he even stepped outside of his house.
Joel’s daughter, Sarah, hated the way these women talked about her dad. It was weird to her that these married women would talk about someone other than their husbands in such a vulgar manner.
Funnily enough, you were the only single woman in this neighborhood. The only one with no kids and no husband.
Sarah’s taken a liking to you, as you’ve watched after her a few times Joel and Tommy would be home late from work. You were close to her dad’s age, beautiful, smart, and most definitely Joel’s type.
There was always this weird tension between you and Joel. It wasn’t awkward. It was moreso full of desire and neediness for the other, but again, Joel just didn’t know how to go about expressing that he wants you in such a way.
You ended up settling on letting him take the reigns, because if he wanted to ask you out then he’d have full control.
The week went by, and you finally decided on what you were going to be: an angel. A little cliché, you must admit, but you already had most of the costume in your wardrobe. You just needed wings and a halo, which you picked up from the Halloween shop earlier in the afternoon. The party started at eight, so it gave you a couple of hours to get ready.
You started off with your hair, giving it a dream-like appearance before diving into your makeup. You were going for a bombshell look to give a mixed element of sultry and sweet.
Once you were sure Joel would at least do a double take on you, you slipped on the parts of your costume one by one. You went for a white lace corset top with a short white skirt, angel wings, the halo, and a pair of silver sparkly strappy heels.
You dusted diamond bomb body glitter across your collar bones and gave yourself one last look in the mirror. Your pink lipstick gave you the perfect innocent pout you were going for while your eyeshadow and lashes accentuated the color and shape of your eyes.
You grab your little clutch and tossed your phone, lipstick, lash glue and keys inside before grabbing the six pack of beer you bought and locking up, heading two houses down. The music was already blaring and the laughter and chatter of people from all over the neighborhood was prevalent as it echoed through the chilly night.
You stopped on the Miller’s porch, wondering if they’d even hear if you rang the doorbell. You thought it’d be rude if you just let yourself in. You decided to ring the doorbell anyway, and not even a minute later, Tommy opened the door.
“Hey you! You look real pretty.” He grinned, and you smiled politely.
“Thanks Tommy, so do you.” You joke, admiring the Greek God costume he was sporting. That costume choice was very fitting for Tommy Miller’s ego.
“Thanks sweets,” He chuckled, eyeing the six pack in your hand. “Let me take that, and c’mon in.” He nods his head toward the loud house, and you stepped in as he followed suit.
It was nice seeing all of your neighbors so dressed up and having a fun time. It was a side you rarely got to see from any of them.
“Drinks are in the kitchen and there’s a variety of food and snacks in there as well if you’re hungry.” Tommy shouts over the thumping music, and you nod.
“Thanks Tommy.”
You headed to the kitchen to mix yourself a drink, nerves easily seeping in as you weren’t the best in social situations. Your anxiety often got the best of you, and some liquid courage would definitely help your case.
You were pouring yourself some Malibu rum mixed with cranberry juice when a voice called from behind.
“Well I’ll be damned, you sure do look good darlin’.” That Southern drawl that had your core aching constantly rung through your ears, and you bit your lip to try and fight off a smile.
You turned on your heel to face the older Miller brother, adorned in a black long sleeve, black jeans, black boots, and black leather gloves. He held a ghostface mask in his hand, and your eyes trailed back up to his gaze before giving him a more seemingly collected smile.
“Hey Joel,” You say, taking a sip from your drink. “Nice costume.” You smirk, eyes averting back down to the mask in his hand.
“Sarah forced me to actually dress up. Said I couldn’t be a lumberjack again this year.” He chuckled, and you smiled and shook your head. Sounded exactly like something she’d do.
“Where’s your, uh, dress?” You tease, noticing he wasn’t wearing the exact full getup.
“Got too damn hot so I took it off.”
“Mm. Well, you look real good, Joel.” You toss a sweet smile his way, sipping on your fruity drink in the infamous red solo cup.
Even in the fairly dim-lit kitchen, you could see the sprinkle of pink dust his cheeks.
“Thanks, darlin’.”
“‘M sure all the moms of the neighborhood are drooling just looking at ya.” You tease, a hint of playfulness in your tone.
“Even if they are, I only got my sights set on one person.” He shrugs, taking a step closer to you. Your breath catches in your throat and you back up against the counter as he stands right in front of you, so close that you can feel his breath fanning your face.
He reached behind you on the counter, eyes never leaving yours. He smirked slightly at your reaction to the proximity between you two as he grabbed the bottle opener that was laying on the counter, retracting his hand.
“C’mon, let’s go enjoy the party.” He smiles softly at you, holding out his leather-bound hand. You take his hand as he leads you out of the kitchen, weaving between the neighbors. You stop here and there to greet them before you eventually make your way to the living room.
You see people playing beer pong in the backyard, chatting with other neighbors, and playing cornhole. Early 2000’s throwbacks were bumping over the speakers, and you assumed Tommy was in charge of being DJ for the night.
Joel sat down on the leather couch, patting the spot next to him. You sat down, wiggling your hips so your legs could get comfortable against the somewhat sticky leather. Joel draped his arm across the back of the couch, and Tommy made his way up to his brother so he could take the bottle opener from Joel.
The opener clinked against the top of the bottle, a release of pressure sounding as the cap was taken off.
“Thanks Tommy.” Joel semi-shouts, leaning back into the couch even further. His arm slides down, now wrapping itself around your shoulder. Tommy raises an eyebrow at his brother.
“Finally manned up and got the balls to ask her out?” Tommy’s words are a bit slurred now, and you can tell he’s teetering from being heavily buzzed to completely drunk.
“Tommy, don’t you have some other people to patronize?” Joel rolls his eyes, grip tightening on your shoulder.
Even the slightest touch from Joel sent an electric shock down your spine and into your core, which was already aching and throbbing with pure need and desire.
Tommy holds his hands up in surrender, chuckling.
“I’ll leave ya alone, but for the love of god, just do it already.”
Joel gives the younger brother a warning glare, pointing the neck of his beer at him, then to the back sliding door.
“Out.” Joel grits, and Tommy’s sporting a shit-eating grin as he walks away from you two.
“So what was that about?” You lean into Joel so he can hear you better. The look on your face conveys pure amusement.
Joel knew he couldn’t beat around the bush with this one, so he simply confessed. “Been wantin’ to ask you out on a date for awhile now.” His lips form into a thin line after he takes a nervous swig of his beer.
You raise an eyebrow at him, feeling rather bold yourself so you place a hand on his lower left thigh as you lean in even closer.
“Yeah? And when were you going to? I’ve been waiting.” You grin, eyes averting down to his lips before moving back up to his gaze. The action doesn’t go unnoticed, and it finally feels like he’s able to grasp something that had been slipping out of his hands for months.
“I was plannin’ on it, but I kept puttin’ it off cus I didn’t think you felt the same way.” He shrugs, taking another sip of the half-full bottle of beer that was now balanced on his lap.
That was half the truth.
The other half was him just simply being petrified, anxiety taking over his whole being at the thought of going on an actual enjoyable date after, god, fourteen years? Nonetheless with a brilliant, gorgeous woman like yourself?
He’d been so accustomed to taking care of Sarah (hell, Tommy too), making sure she was always his first priority. Sure, he’s had hookups here and there down the line, but none of them ever meant anything at all. It was always just a rendezvous in passing. Never anything serious.
But, when he first laid his eyes on you, he knew he wanted a real connection. He wanted something real with you, a relationship of his own that he could be proud of as you two built from the foundation up together.
“Joel.” You whisper, eyes darting back and forth between his. The once beautiful dark brown eyes seemed to turn black with lust, but remained soft as they scanned your features.
“Darlin’ I think it’s about time we do somethin’ about… this.” He gestures between you both, and a saccharine smile curls onto your lips.
“I couldn’t agree more.”
His eyes flitted to your lips this time, and the tension was insanely hot and heavy. You could barely even hear the thumping music anymore as your heart nearly leaped out of your chest from how hard it was pounding.
You two just stared at each other, quite literally enthralled with one another. You wanted to kiss him so bad, but in front of all these neighbors? They were good people, but were nosey as hell. Loved to gossip.
You didn’t need them in your business and you’re sure as hell Joel didn’t want them in his either.
You opened your mouth to say something, but were cut short by Tommy yelling into the living room.
“Shots in the kitchen everybody, c’mon!” He pointed at the two of you, and you laughed at his utter display of just not giving a fuck.
You tap Joel’s thigh with your hand. “C’mon cowboy, let’s go appease your brother before he calls us both out for not joining him.”
You stand up from the couch slowly, well aware of the fact that the back of your thighs were sticking to the leather at this point. You held your hand out to Joel once you were up, and he gladly took it. You both maneuvered your way into the kitchen, a small crowd of your neighbors already gathered around the island in the middle.
Tommy poured tequila shots into miniature red solo cups, passing them out to each individual around him. He put the plated cut up limes on the counter and two salt shakers on each side of the plate.
You lick a spot on your free hand and grab the salt, tapping it onto your hand before grabbing a lime. Tommy waits for everyone to be settled before raising his shot glass to the crowd before him.
“To my brother Joel for agreeing to throw this party yet another year. And to, y’know, Halloween.” Tommy chuckles, and everyone cheers to Joel. You look up at Joel as you lick the salt off your hand, toss back the shot, and stick the lime in your mouth.
Something in the way you looked at him when you moved to fluidly made his cock ache. The hungry look in your eyes, and the sweet smile you offered after you took the lime out of your mouth.
“Joel!” A voice squeaked, breaking your eye contact with him. You both turn to look at your neighbor, Tiffany, who was dressed as a sexy police officer.
“Hey, Tiffany.” Joel greeted, curtly nodding at her.
“Great party. I think it’s nice you invited the whole neighborhood.” She giggled, twirling her pin-straight brunette hair around a manicured finger.
“‘S all Tommy, really.” He shrugs, looking back down at you. You watch the two of them in amusement, noticing that Tiffany was getting closer to Joel. She eventually wrapped her arm around his bicep, to which he stiffened at her touch.
“Well, it’s sooo fun. You like my costume?” She inquires, bringing her bottom lip between her teeth. She looks up at him, feigning innocence, but he’s truthfully not paying attention to her. She seems to notice that he’s more focused on you, and she rolls her eyes.
She’s always been pretty rude to you since you moved into the neighborhood, and you didn’t know why. Now you had an inkling. You could’ve sworn she was married, so a devilish smile curled onto your lips as you tilt your head to the side.
“How’s your husband, Tiffany?” You ask, and she shoots you a glare.
“Fine, thanks.” She scoffs, and Joel shakes her hand off of his bicep.
“Let’s take another shot, darlin’.” Joel suggests to you, and you grin up at him.
An idea popped into your head, and you were hoping he’d go along with it.
“Wanna do a moonlick shot with me, Miller?”
He looked down at you in shock, abruptly pausing his movements.
“Mhm.” Was all he could muster up. Most of the crowd still lingered in the kitchen, so you knew you were about to put on a show.
And, well, licking salt off of Joel’s neck seemed extremely gratifying for the both of you.
You poured another shot of tequila into your little shot glass, grabbed the lime and salt, and stood in front of Joel again.
Tiffany watched you both closely, realization suddenly dawning on her.
She thought there was no way you two would actually do a moonshot in front of all the neighbors gathered in here, but with how heavy the tension was between you and Joel, you both didn’t care at all at this point.
Your eyes scanned the room swiftly, thanking the universe that Mrs. Adler was nowhere to be found. You’d never hear the end of it from her if she saw you and Joel like this.
You wrapped a hand around the back of Joel’s neck, standing on your tippy toes as you brought your face into the crook of his neck.
The warmth of his body sent chills down your spine. He smelled like an earthly musk. It was heavenly.
He gripped your waist as you moved your lips closer to his neck, finally poking your tongue out to slowly lick up the side of his warm flesh. You leaned back down to sprinkle some salt into your hand, pressing it into the wet spot on his neck. You grabbed your like and tequila shot, holding the backside of the lime up to his mouth. He graciously bit into it, and you smirked at him as you went to move your face back into the crook of his neck.
You licked the salt off of Joel’s neck, eliciting a groan from deep within his chest. His arm wrapped completely around your waist as you threw the shot back, taking the lime from his mouth with your own. You put the lime into the small shot glass before looking back up at Joel.
The fire behind his eyes was inevitable, and he finally closed the gap between you two. He enveloped his plush lips to yours, and you tossed both hands over his shoulders and let them dangle as both arms securely wrapped around your waist.
A few of the neighbors in the kitchen whistled, a “finally” thrown into the mix, and Tommy being utterly obnoxious by cheering his brother on.
Joel’s chest swelled with a bit of pride knowing he made his little brother proud.
Your lips moved in perfect sync, your core suddenly throbbing terrible as you felt your slick completely coat your panties. You moaned softly into the kiss, having barely any willpower to break apart from him.
Joel knew you wanted him as much as he wanted you, especially physically in this moment. He wasn’t going to waste another opportunity to finally let himself indulge in something he’s wanted for so long.
“My room?” He asks breathlessly, and you nod. You briefly noticed that Tiffany wasn’t standing in the kitchen anymore, and you smirked to yourself in a little victory.
Joel grabbed your hand and started to lead you out of the kitchen, but Tommy stopped you both.
“Hey, where ya goin’?” Tommy was completely unaware of how much of a cockblock he was being at the moment.
Joel faced his brother and pursed his lips into a thin line.
“Upstairs. Cover for me, yeah?” Joel says, and Tommy’s shit-eating grin returns.
“Oh hell yeah, big brother. Have fun.” He wiggles his eyebrows, and Joel rolls his eyes and shakes his head. He slips his ghostface mask back on to try and blend in a bit more with the crowd, both of you slipping upstairs seemingly unnoticed.
Once you were in Joel’s bedroom, he locked the door and took the mask back off, setting it on his bedside table.
Joel mentally thanked himself for making his bed this morning. The man was notorious for leaving the duvet completely crumpled.
You took in your surroundings. His room was cozy and simple, but felt like home. You smiled up at him, shimmying your wings off before hanging them on the bedpost. Joel took the halo gently off of your head.
“Reckon you definitely don’t need’ta be wearin’ this.” He chuckles, putting it to the side.
“Mm, I think you’re right.” You step forward, hands landing on his solid chest as you move them up to the sides of his neck. You can feel the vein in his neck, pulse racing under your touch.
“Listen, darlin’,” Joel starts, gently grabbing your wrists. “I haven’t done… this… in awhile. I really like you, too, and I really don’t want this to just be a one-time thing.” He confesses, and your heart melts at his words.
“I really like you too, Joel. I don’t want this to be a one-time thing, either.”
“Good.” He breathes, cupping your face into his hands before smashing his lips to yours. You moan into the kiss as he leads you back toward his bed. The back of your knees hit his mattress and you sink down onto it. Joel lays you down before parting your legs with his knee, putting pressure onto your throbbing cunt.
You find yourself unintentionally grinding your hips so your core is rocking against his leg, desperate for friction by any means. Joel feels how hot and wet you are, even through the fabric of your panties and his jeans.
“Christ, doll. Y’this fuckin’ soaked for me already?” Joel tsks, and you can’t help but let out a lewd moan.
“Yes, Joel,” You pant. “Wanted you for so long, can’t—fuck,—can’t wait any longer.”
“Baby, you don’t know how much that fuckin’ turns me on. You touch yourself thinkin’ about me?” He questions, slowly bringing a hand underneath your skirt to rub your soaked core over your panties.
“God, fuck, yes. All the time.” You admit, eyes squeezing shut as your breath begins to increase rapidly.
Joel groans at your confession, cock constricted by his jeans just begging for release.
“‘M gonna ruin every single man for you, baby.”
“Ruin me, Joel.”
That’s all he needed to hear before hastily sliding your panties off of your legs. He spread your legs as he got down on his knees, admiring how your pussy glistened in the low light of his room.
“Fuckin’ perfect little pussy.” He murmurs, lifting your skirt up all the way. You gasp as Joel kisses your inner thighs, dragging his tongue up your tender flesh, littering kisses along the way before he finally places a soft kiss to your core.
Joel wastes no more time teasing you and delves his tongue right into your folds, not wanting to hold out any longer on tasting you.
And, good god, you tasted heavenly. Ironic for being dressed up as an angel, but you really played the part.
You moaned loudly as he drank you up like a glass of water in the middle of the night. He was relentless with his tongue, the muscle swirling around your folds, flicking onto your clit, then moving down to your entrance to prod in and out of you.
His mouth felt divine. You truly don’t think any man has ever eaten your pussy this good, and you’d be damned if another man besides Joel ever did again.
“Joel, holy fuck.” You cry, and he moans praisingly into you. The vibrations sent a shock up your spine, causing you to arch your back off of the bed.
All of your senses ignited with just Joel. His mouth, his touch, his scent, everything about him was surrounding you all at once. You genuinely don’t know how you went about not doing this any sooner.
Joel moved his tongue back up to your clit, flicking over it expertly as he inserted his ring and middle fingers into you. You cry out once more, instinctively grasping onto his hair as you slightly tugged on it. He switched from flicking his tongue over your clit to sucking on it instead, fingers driving in and out of you at such an enchanting pace.
His fingers were so much longer and thicker than yours, so the feeling of it was becoming all too consuming. He hit that sweet spot inside of you once he started to curl his fingers upward, and you nearly choked on a gasp.
“Fuck, yes, right there right there right there—” You chant, feeling your orgasm rapidly approaching as it bloomed quickly within the deepest depths of your core, clawing its way out to the surface. “‘M gonna—”
“Let go, sweet girl. I’ve got you.” Joel praises, and your orgasm comes crumbling down, washing in electric waves through your body. You moan loudly, crying out Joel’s name as you gripped his duvet.
Joel admires how you writhe beneath him, riding out your intense orgasm. You’re nearly breathless, panting rapidly as you lay on his bed completely dazed. Once you finally composed yourself enough, your eyes fall on his face. Half of it was covered in your slick, and you whine at the sight.
“How was that?” He asks, standing up.
“I’m convinced you’re a fucking wizard or some shit.” You breathe, and he gutturally laughs. You love the sound of it, tucking it away in your memory to keep.
“Nope, just regular ol’ me, baby.” His smile is soft as he gazes down at you, and you lean up on your elbows, shaking your head.
“Nothing about you is regular. You, Joel Miller, are extraordinary.” You slowly get up from his bed on shaky legs, but he grips you for support. You switch spots with him, turning him around to softly push him onto his bed. He sits down and watches you closely, admiring how you look at him. It makes his stomach do a flip, and a blush tinges his cheeks ever so slightly.
“My turn to take care of you.” You whisper, sinking to your knees before him. You undo his belt buckle, pop the button of his jeans, and slide his zipper down. He lifts his hips for you as you pull down his jeans and boxers simultaneously.
Joel’s cock easily hits the shirt over his stomach, weeping and dribbling with pre cum. Your mouth watered as you took in the sight, appreciating the pink and tan silky flesh before pumping it a few times, causing Joel to suck in a breath and squeeze his eyes shut.
He lets out a low groan as you tug back to the top slowly, lowering your head to swirl your tongue around the tip. The salty taste of pre cum coats your tongue, and you hum in praise before licking a warm stripe over the vein of his cock. He curses, head lolling back as he tries hard not to cum right then and there.
It’s been far too long since someone’s touched him like this, and now that he has the woman he’s been fantasizing about daily at his discretion, he knows he won’t be able to contain himself for long.
His cock was heavy on your tongue as you slid more of him into your mouth slowly, trying to keep yourself from gagging. Your throat constricted slightly as the tip of his cock met the back of your throat, nose nearly buried in coarse, curly hair at the base.
“Fuuuck, sweet thing, ‘m not gonna last long if you keep doin’ that.” He moans, loving the feeling of your soft lips wrapped around his cock.
You flatten your tongue against him and start to bob your head up and down, setting a rhythm you could easily keep up with. Hearing him moan your name while you pleasure him shot straight to your core, aching for more of him.
You moan against him as your nails lightly scratch what’s exposed of his tan thighs, and you open your eyes to look right into Joel’s.
The nearly sinister look in his eyes when you look up at him makes you want to touch yourself while you made him feel good.
“Such a good girl, takin’ my cock in your mouth so well. Look so fuckin’ gorgeous like this.” He praises, cupping your cheek gently. He was refraining from touching your hair and face because he didn’t want to ruin your hairdo or your makeup, despite how badly his fingers were nearly itching to either cup your face harshly or thread his thick fingers through your hair.
You took him all the way into your mouth once more, swallowing around the tip of him before moving up to the tip to focus on just that. You swirled your tongue again, licking the slit on his head before Joel’s breath caught in his throat.
“Shit, baby, don’t stop, ‘m close.” He feels like he’s floating when his orgasm shoots down his spine not even seconds later, and you moan around him as you swallow everything he gives you.
He pulls you up gently but hastily from the ground, kissing you before pushing you onto the bed again. He had to be buried inside you now. He gave his cock a couple of strokes to harden himself again as he stood over you, a feral look in his eye.
Your eyes glanced over at the ghostface mask sitting on his bedside table, and his eyes followed yours. He quirks an eyebrow up at the mask, looking back at you.
“Want me to put it on?” He asks, and you felt your cheeks get hot.
“You don’t have to.” You’re suddenly shy, but the thought of Joel fucking you with a ghostface mask on turned you on immensely.
“I’m asking you.” A hint of questioning demand was behind his tone.
“Yes. Put it on. Please.”
“Kinky little thing, aren’t ya? Gotta mask kink?” He teases before grabbing the mask, slipping it on before towering back over you.
Seeing his tall, broad frame hovering over you like this with the mask on makes your pussy clench, a delicious lick of satisfaction shoving its way into your mind.
“Gonna fuckin’ ruin this pussy.” Joel’s voice is slightly muffled, but somehow the mask makes it sound deeper. You bite your lip and look up at him as he spreads your legs apart, coating the tip of his cock with your slick.
He pauses abruptly, as if remembering something.
“Should I get a condom?”
“Only if you want. I’m on birth control.” You give him a reassuring nod, and he visibly relaxes.
He continues where he left of, sliding his tip between your folds a couple of times more before slowly pushing into your entrance.
You both moan loudly at the sensation, feeling so warm and full and whole. Joel pushes into you until his hips are flush against yours before pulling out slightly. He grabs your legs and tosses them over his shoulders, a new feeling of deeper pleasure rippling through every fiber of your being.
“Fuck, feel s’good.” You toss your head back against his bed, reveling in the feeling of being stretched out.
“So do you, baby. Pussy’s so perfect. Was made f’me.” Joel starts to snap his hips against yours, the sound of skin slapping on skin echoing off the four walls of the master bedroom.
Joel’s hands snake around your ankles on his shoulders as he drives himself deeper into you, pounding his hips into the back of your thighs.
The way you clench around him nearly has him choking, wanting to come undone right then and there.
You gazed up at Joel—well, ghostface—with your eyebrows threaded and jaw slack. There was something so deliciously fucking hot about the way his head was tilted to the side as he looked down at you, fucking you into oblivion.
He bent down ever so slightly to wrap his leather-bound hand around your neck, squeezing the sides. Your eyes rolled to the back of your head as all of your sensations suddenly became so full of him again.
You were seeing stars, silent screams escaping your mouth as you tried to move up onto the bed. Joel gripped your thighs harshly and tugged you back down, pulling out of you swiftly to smack your pussy before completely filling you once more.
“Joel, fuck, oh god, oh god, JoelJoelJoel—”
“Yeah, that’s it. Fuckin’ pretty slut likes when I pound into her sweet pussy, hm? Likes getting choked?” Joel’s words drip with venom. You couldn’t even form a coherent word, leaving you to nod frantically.
“Fuck, baby girl, I need you to cum for me.” His voice is strained and desperate, needing to feel you pulse around him again. He brings a hand down to your clit to rub tight, deft circles around it.
You couldn’t even process one more thought before that same blooming, clawing sensation nearly paralyzed your body as you stiffened, orgasm completely washing over your body. You jolted up, crying out Joel’s name.
“I know baby, I know. Fuck, ‘m close, where d’ya want me?” He rips off the mask and tosses it aside, eyes meeting yours once more.
“In me, need to feel you.” Your words are slurred, starting to sound just like Tommy. But you two were very, very different types of drunk.
Joel spills into you, hips stuttering as he groans, jaw clenched. He leans down to kiss you fervently, moaning into your mouth as his orgasm finally rides out. He slowly pulls out of you, hissing at the sensation. You softly whine at the loss of such fullness.
He tucks himself back into his boxers and jeans, pulling them up, re-buttoning his jeans and re-buckling his belt. He sits beside you on the bed, warm leather landing on your thigh as he traces circles into your skin.
“Fuck, baby, that was just,” He pauses, trying to catch his breath. “Unreal.” He huffs, falling next to you so he’s laying down on the bed beside you.
“It was. Thank you.” You shudder at one last aftershock of your orgasm, and Joel chuckles.
“Anything for you, baby.” Your heart skips a beat at his words, and you roll onto your side to face him.
“Kinda don’t wanna go back downstairs. They’re all gonna see this angel really isn’t such an angel.” You huff a laugh, shaking your head.
Joel kisses your forehead before standing up, reaching for your hands to help pull you up from his bed.
“Gotta show Tiffany how good you got fucked somehow, right?” Joel grins, and your jaw drops.
“Joel Miller, you petty man!” You laugh, slipping on your wings and halo once more.
But, he was right—
You totally wanted to show everyone just how good ghostface really fucked you.

ALL 'SECRET' VIDEOS IN THE OPPOSITE AU!
These aren't offical for anything! These are fake scripts for 'secret' videos found on the WH site, but for my AU!
FRANK AND EDDIE
[The scene is a mess of crafts paper, glitter glue, and stickers.]
[The audio opens with a loud, sudden ear-piercing scream from Frank.]
FRANK: AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!EDDIE: [throws the door open, huffing as though he ran there. His voice is uncharacteristically worried.] Frank!? What’s going on!? Why.. [his voice relaxes as he sees Frank, returning to montone. He sighs.] ..why are you on your crafts table? FRANK: That!! THAT!!! [Frank seems to be pointing at something.] EDDIE: … That? FRANK: YES YES!! GET IT AWAY!! EDDIE: ..the tiny little beetle right there? FRANK: MHM!! It flew into the window and tried to KILL ME!! EDDIE: … Alright, whatever- FRANK: NONONONONO!! EDDIE: What!? You said get rid of it! FRANK: DONT STEP ON IT!!
EDDIE: Well, what do you want me to do!? FRANK: just- get it out!!! EDDIE: mmh.. Alright, give me that. The construction paper. FRANK: give you what- wha- [Frank lifts his shoe as Eddie takes some paper he was standing on.]
EDDIE: [Eddie grunts as he crouches down, pushing the beetle onto the paper] C’mon, on the paper bud.. [Frank whines] EDDIE: [Eddie takes the beetle outside, flapping the paper] Go on.. Go go go… C’mon get off- [The buzzing sound of a beetle flying away] There it’s gone- huff! FRANK: [Frank jumps off the table and hugs Eddie suddenly, his squeaker making a little squee] You’re my herooo!! EDDIE: yeah, I- okay- sure, [Eddie clears his throat and pats Frank’s back.] You’re welcome.
FRANK: You saved my life! EDDIE: I just put a bug outside! They ain’t even that scary! FRANK: but-but those pinchers!! EDDIE: Its for grabbing things its size! Like– food! EDDIE: Ugh.. you’re not scared of them, are you Wally?
FRANK AND JULIE
FRANK: Well I think I'm plenty funny, Julie! Barnaby thinks I'm a hoot and a half!
JULIE: Only a hoot and a half? What happened to the other half? [Mean laugh]
FRANK: [frustrated hmph!]
JULIE: That’s not even an accomplishment. Barnaby wouldn’t know a good joke if it walked up to him, introduced itself, and slapped him in the face.
FRANK: [Said with a pout in his tone] yes he would! You know, Julie, you’re not the only funny one in this neighborhood!
JULIE: Oh yeah? You might be right, cloud head! Eddie’s a pretty funny guy too-
FRANK: Not Eddie! Me! I have a joke that will knock your boots off! I’ve been working on it all week!
JULIE: [‘tch’s] Oh good.. all week? It took you that long? [her voice is a little louder as she turns to Wally] You hearing this, creeper?
FRANK: I’ll tell you, listen to this one! [Clears throat] What did the number three say to the number two after beating him in a game of checkers?
JULIE: Oh my lord..
FRANK: I One!
JULIE: [Pretend grunt of pain] Oh my god! That was worse than listening to Howdy explain economics!!
FRANK: Oh it was not, Julie! It was a good joke! Don’t you get it? One is a number but it also sounds like won! You know, when you won a game!
JULIE: [Another gasp of anguish] Now he’s explaining it! Oh- When will the agony stop?! [the sound of Julie falling to her knees, the grass squishing beneath her] Feed me to my venus flytraps, I’m going into the light! Augh! [dramatic gasp as she flops onto her back]
FRANK: Oh Julie, you just don’t understand comedy that isn’t hurting others! It was a funny joke! Wasn’t it, Wally?
HOWDY AND BARNABY
[The scene is what appears to be Barnaby’s desk. Theres two books, a gramophone, and a delightful faint sound of old music] HOWDY: so.. you don’t charge anythin’ for your products!?
BARNABY: well.. they’re not products, Pillar, they’re just books! People return them, anyhow, why would I charge for something I’m going to get back?
HOWDY: [talking incredibly fast, spouting off his business nonsense] A quick fee! People come by all the time and check out books, 50 cents for each checkout! 50 cents for each book, someone comes by and checks out 3 books, boom, a dollar and a half for you and thats just one person! You can start a library card business, too! More like a subscription, free books! But they have to pay 10 bucks a month to keep the card!-
BARNABY: Pillar! [Barnaby cuts him off, but he continues]
HOWDY: [interrupting, continuing to spout] Would if a book gets damaged?
BARNABY: [gasping, as if Howdy talking fast exhausted him] Well, I-I don’t mind at all! I replace it on my own, sure it takes a bit to find and purchase to replace but-
HOWDY: [astonished, interrupting] It comes out of ya own pocket!?
BARNABY: well- yes! Accidents happen, Pillar, I wouldn’t charge for a simple mistake.
HOWDY: How much does a book cost to replace?
BARNABY: Well I dunno… aah, 40 dollars on average-
HOWDY: 40 whole dollars!? You’re killin’ me, Barn!
BARNABY: I’m sorry my business model is hurting you, Pillar, but that’s how I run things.
HOWDY: If I was in your place I would not run it this way.
BARNABY: You are in my place! [He chuckles, amused. He straightens himself and talks sweetly again] You run that charming bodega.
HOWDY: Well, yes, yes I do!
BARNABY: Quite well, might I add.
HOWDY: [still speaking in his astonished tone] Thank you!
BARNABY: You are welcome!
HOWDY: Yeah- I- what were we fightin’ about?
BARNABY: I don’t reckon we we’re fighting, Pillar.
HOWDY: I was sure we was! I was angry.
BARNABY: I wasn’t! I thought we were having a creative discussion about my business.
HOWDY AND JULIE
[The scene is a close up of Howdy’s products.]
[The bell above the door rings, and the sound of Julie’s heels can be heard as she walks inside.]
HOWDY: Julie! How are ya?
JULIE: Same as always. [Her heels continue as she approaches Howdy’s counter] I’m looking for something to make for dinner for me and Sally.
HOWDY: I was unaware she ate.
JULIE: You’re not funny.
HOWDY: Gotta make sure whatever it is is small enough to fit up her nose.
JULIE: [The sound of her heels walking away as she leaves to explore the aisles]
HOWDY: Oh come back! I got one more!
JULIE: [At a distance] Die!
[Some beats pass, Howdy taps on the counter lazily]
HOWDY: Okay, what are you looking for?
JULIE: Just something that smells good. I don’t want to force Sally to eat, I’m thinking about cooking it while shes on her computer, so she smells the food and comes to eat on her own accord-
HOWDY: So-
JULIE: Make a joke about her snorting it and I’ll tear your antenna off.
HOWDY: Damn, jeez…
JULIE: Hm.. [Julie speaks to herself as she takes items off the shelf] Ah, sweet, here we are.. I can make some fried rice.. Oo, Mackerel.. [She speaks to Howdy] Do you have any jarred Romesco?
HOWDY: Probably.
JULIE: Whatever, I’ll make it myself. [She grabs more items, followed by the sound of her heels walking to the counter]
HOWDY: Right, [beeping sounds as he rings her up] Total comes out to 176 dollars and 32 cents.
JULIE: [Groan] Here.
HOWDY: Thaank you.. Have a nice day.
JULIE: Uh huh. [Julie grabs her bags and leaves the store]
HOWDY: [Howdy hums and taps the counter.] ..Oh! Hey, didn’t see ya there. What do you need, Wally?
POPPY AND BARNABY
[The scene is a close up on a bookshelf, Wally’s hand is visible resting on the edge. The usual sound of delightful old music can be heard faintly]
POPPY: [Distant] Barn? Ya home?
BARNABY: Over here, dear!
POPPY: Ah, whatcha doing?
BARNABY: Oh, I was just in the middle of finding a book for him.
POPPY: Oh- didn’t seeya there. Well, I just thought I’d check on ya. Haven’t spoken to you in a good minute. [Poppy takes a seat. Barnaby joins her.]
BARNABY: I’m doing just fine. How are you?
POPPY: I’m good. Julie’s birthday is in a few weeks, I’m planning for that!
BARNABY: ..it’s not for another two months?
POPPY: Yeah, and Julie likes expensive wine.
BARNABY: Ahah!
[There’s a few beats of comfortable silence.]
POPPY: …You sure you doin’ okay?
BARNABY: Hm? Yes? Why do you ask?
POPPY: I’m just worried about you, that’s all. Y’know me.
BARNABY: I do.
[The comfortable silence melts away, a bit of tension filling the air.]
POPPY: Let’s talk about something else.
BARNABY: Let’s!
POPPY: Whatcha readin’ lately?
BARNABY: Lots of historical fiction, mostly.
POPPY: Ooh!
BARNABY: Are you reading anything?
POPPY: Aah.. eeeh…
BARNABY: Haha.. It’s alright. I know it’s not for everyone.
POPPY: Haha. I’m glad to see you’re doin’ alright, Barn.
BARNABY: Thanks for being concerned about me, Partridge.
POPPY: Of course. [Poppy stands.] Never be afraid to call me, Barn.
BARNABY: See you..
[A few bits of silence. Eventually, Barnaby takes in a breath]
BARNABY: Always nice when she visits! How are you doing Darling?
POPPY AND JULIE
[The scene is a table with a cake. The cake has “HAPPY BIRTHDAY JULIE” in pink icing, as well as a glass of wine.]
JULIE: I’m so happy you’re letting me throw my birthday at your place again, Ma!
POPPY: Of course! Why wouldn’t I?
JULIE: Ahaha! Ma, you’re delightful. Seriously, what did we do to deserve such a delightful neighborhood mother?
POPPY: Ya don’t need to do anythin’! I’d do this for anyone. Anyway, let’s talk snacks!
JULIE: Let’s! [Julie is incredibly cheerfully and sing-songy]
POPPY: What ya thinkin?
JULIE: Ooh! [The sound of crumpling paper as she takes something out of her pocket] When I took that quick trip out to the cave, I managed to grab some of my moms old tapas recipes! [She hands the paper to Poppy] It would make me so happy if you could-
POPPY: recreate them?
JULIE: Yes!
POPPY: I’d be delighted! These sound delicious, too! Your mama made these?
JULIE: Mhm! My mom loved cooking, she cooked every chance she got! Any of our birthdays, the-day-after-your-birthday day, the-week-after-your-birthday day, its-a-celebrites-birthday day, fuck-it-I-just-wanna-cook-for-my-kids day.. Any reason!
POPPY: Sounds like she meant a lot to ya.
JULIE: Ah, she did.. She was so sweet. You would’ve loved her, Ma!
POPPY: If it ain’t a sore subject, can I ask how she passed?
JULIE: Natural causes.. She died peacefully in her sleep, and doing what she loved! She made us a delicious feast before she did.. My siblings and I have this joke.. We say she was supposed to die the night before, but asked the angels to give her just one more day to give her kids one last meal.
POPPY: That’s so sweet, Julie.
JULIE: [A small hum as she smiles]
POPPY: I’ll do my best to recreate your moms recpies.. And I’d be happy if you helped me!
JULIE: Oh- Ma! I’d love to!
POPPY: Sounds like a plan. Oh, hey, you wanna help too, Wally?
JULIE AND SALLY
[The scene the outside of Sally’s house. A close up on the chipped purple paint, and a window just barely in view at the top. All the voices are slightly distant]
JULIE: hup- hup!!
SALLY: Huh..?
JULIE: Hey! [Strained] Sorry! I wanted to surprise you, but it is hard to break into your house! Ugh! [A thump is heard as Julie falls inside]
SALLY: [Sally giggles] Are you okay?
JULIE: Perfect. [Julie stands up and poofs her skirt] Okay!
SALLY: What’s in the bag..?
JULIE: It’s a surprise! [She says sing-songy]
[There’s a few beats of tension, Sally’s breath tightening]
JULIE: [Julie rushes to speak again] ..It’s just some ingredients! I wanted to make you some dinner.
SALLY: Oh! …Can I see?
JULIE: Yeah! [Theres some heel clicks as she walks over to Sally, opening her bag and showing her the ingredients]
SALLY: What’s this..?
JULIE: Oh! That’s for me. It’s a Trinidad moruga pepper.
SALLY: What’s this…?
JULIE: Mackerel. You like fish, yeah?
SALLY: I.. think so.
JULIE: How about I cook up a quick sample right now and you can try it? 
SALLY: Oh, okay.
JULIE: Mhm! I’m sure you’ll love it.
SALLY: Hehe..
JULIE: Alright, let me go see if you’re oven still works and- Hey!! [Julie’s heels are heard as she approaches the window and looks outside] Get out of here creeper!!
SALLY: wh-whose there!?
JULIE: Don’t worry! It’s just Wally!
BARNABY AND SALLY
[The scene is a wooden floor.]
[Barnaby can be heard singing.]
BARNABY: Heartaches.. ~ Heartaches..~
BARNABY: My loving you, they're only heartaches~
BARNABY: Your kiss was such a - oh! [He’s interrupted by the phone ringing. He answers.] Good evening. Barns books!
SALLY: ..Hello..?
BARNABY: Hello? [Barnaby is just as confused] Whose this?
SALLY: M..mm…my girlfriend gave me your number..
BARNBAY: [An sound of realization and relief] Hello. You must be Starlet.
SALLY: ..yes..
BARNABY: It’s nice to meet you. My name is Barnaby. Julie has told me a lot about you! What do you need?
SALLY: I just.. I was… I think I’m sick.
BARNABY: Oh! What are your symptoms? [Barnaby pushes some things around his desk, finding a notepad. He clicks a pen.]
SALLY: I just uhm.. M..my heart is beating really fast.
BARNABY: Mhm.. [Barnaby writes it down]
SALLY: and.. I feel really warm..
BARNABY: Mhm.. [He writes it down]
SALLY: and I.. I.. Don’t want to sleep.. Or eat.. Anything..
BARNABY: … [Barnaby stops writing] ..I apologize if this is invasive, but Julie informed me you are an addict. 
SALLY: Oh..
BARNABY: Are you currently under the influence?
SALLY: ..why?
BARNABY: You just described very common symptoms of cocaine abuse.
SALLY: …
BARNABY: ..? Hello?
SALLY: Sorry.
BARNABY: No need to- oh. [Sally hangs up on him] Ah.. Well, she hung up.. I hope she calls back. [He hums in worry] Anywho.. Sorry for that.. Do you need anything, Darling?
EDDIE AND JULIE
[The scene almost looks like a spa. There is nail polish, makeup brushes, an ash tray, and bottle of wine.]
EDDIE: So, then he tells me that the money isn’t enough!
JULIE: [gasps in offense] It’s all you had!
EDDIE: It’s all I had, exactly!
JULIE: What did he want
EDDIE: You’re never gonna believe this.
JULIE: Mm?
EDDIE: He tells me.. He can sell my left arm.
JULIE: No!
EDDIE: Yes!!
JULIE: What the fuck!
EDDIE: Yeah!
JULIE: That’s when you jumped on him?
EDDIE: That’s when I jumped on him, yeah.
JULIE: Mm, absolutely deserved. 
EDDIE: Mhhhm..
JULIE: Want more wine?
EDDIE: Yesss..
[The wine bottle is taken out of sight]
JULIE: Here you aree..
EDDIE: Mm.. Thanks for inviting me to your girls night.. Even though-
JULIE: Girls night is for anyone, babe. Besides, I wanted to hear the story of you making Howdy your bitch again.
EDDIE: [A shocked laugh, the sound of him playfully hitting Julie] Jules!
JULIE: Ah! Haha! You ass I almost spilt my wine!!
EDDIE: Hah! [Eddie snort-laughs]
[They laugh together for awhile, before calming down]
JULIE: so… Why’d you bring him with you?
EDDIE: Huh? Him? Oh.. Frank couldn’t make it and he seemed like a nice substitute.
JULIE: Awwh.. Why couldn’t Frank make it?
[A pink cigarette comes into view and is flicked into the ashtray]
EDDIE: Some sorta lesson with Barn.. I don’t know.. Can I get a cig?
JULIE: Hm? You smoke Rose Butts?
EDDIE: I know, I know, it’s a [Eddie puts on a mocking tone] “Girl Cigeratte”..
JULIE: No, no, you do you, but I’m more surprised you smoke. Here..
EDDIE: God, in this neighborhood? Who doesn’t?
JULIE: Frank.
EDDIE: I- well- that’s fair
JULIE: Wally.
EDDIE: Okay. So the two innocent guys don’t smoke.
JULIE: Barnaby doesn’t smoke.
EDDIE: Okay, shut up.
[Julie giggles, Eddie chuckles with him]
EDDIE: Mm.. Anyways, you wanna do his makeup or something?
JULIE: Ooh! Yeah! Wanna get your makeup done, Wally?
FRANK AND HOWDY
[The scene is Howdy’s store, once again. This time its a view of an apple display.]
[The sound of Frank humming the tune of ‘There Was An Old Woman Who Lived In A Shoe’]
FRANK: Howdy..
HOWDY: What is it, Nuvola?
FRANK: Do you think Eddie has feelings for mee..?
HOWDY: Hun, I don’t think Eddie has feelings.
FRANK: But- like- do you think he.. Like likes me?
HOWDY: He certainly cares about you more others. [Howdy walks away and begins shelving as he talks to Frank]
FRANK: I mean like.. Like.. if you think I asked him to hang out.. Like hang-out hang-out! He’d.. say yes?
HOWDY: Why are you asking me? Not only have I not been on a date in 12 years, [he sets something on the shelf] but Eddie also despises me, almost as much as I despise him.
FRANK: I know! But you know him super well and you spend a lot of time together! I figured he must’ve told you how he feels about me!
HOWDY: We spend a lot of time together, yeah, but we’re not being all buddy-buddy. He spends time in my store because he’s either blacked out drunk, or in the process of getting blacked out drunk. [He sets another item on the shelf] Or threatening me.
FRANK: Hmm.. [Frank pouts]
HOWDY: Eugh.. Listen, if you wanna know if Eddie likes you, why don’t you just march down to that Pot Office and ask!

[The scene is some grass, Wally’s hand can be visible laying in it]
POPPY: Saallyy.. Sally? [Poppy’s voice approaches, a small squawk as she almost steps on Wally] Sorry, dear, didn’t see ya. Sally! Ya home?
SALLY: Hello..? [Sallys voice is distant and muffled]

POPPY: Thas the spirit! Sorry I tried to make ya come outside.
SALLY: It’s okay.

SALLY: Bye. [There’s shuffling inside as Sally leaves]
POPPY: What a sweet girl. You know her, Walls?
POPPY AND EDDIE
[The scene is the floor of the post office. Letters are scattered about, along with pens, pencils, highlighters, and two vodka bottles]
POPPY: Eddie? [Poppy’s voice is overlaid with her claws against the floor] You here?
EDDIE: mmgnnm…
POPPY: Ah, there you are.. What ya doin’ under the table..?
EDDIE: Headache.. [he hiccups]
POPPY: ..so you got under the table

POPPY: You need’a throw up?
EDDIE: …no…
POPPY: Alright.. Well.. [Poppy sighs] Let’s see if I can get ya to bed. C’mere..
EDDIE: Nooo..
[Poppy helps Eddie away, theres some struggle and shuffling and Eddie complaining, but they make it eventually. There’s a small ‘pomf’ as Eddie lands on his couch]
POPPY: [her voice distant] There you are hun.. [her voice returns with her claws hitting the floor] Well.. I got em to bed.. Let’s just hope he stays there.. Let’s see if I can get this place cleaned up. Ya mind helpin, Wally?
BARNABY
BARNABY: Ah, then I told Pillar he needed to apologize to poor Dear! But he just went on and on about how he was the one that deserved an apology!
HOME: [Sounds of banging can be heard, sort of like agreeing]
BARNABY: I know! I told him that I couldn’t stay with him- i-in the room, I mean, unless he went and said he was sorry!
HOME: [Shutters creak]
BARNABY: Augh, I know, it’s such a heavy ask.. With how much they’re at each others throats! I don’t even understand what could’ve possibly caused such hatred!
HOME: [Lets out an inquisitive door squeak]
BARNABY: I agree. I think I need to sit down with them both and see what on Earth happened- eh
HOME: [Opens and closes its door judgmentally, cutting Barnaby off]
BARNABY: Wha- What do you mean it’s a bad idea?! I’ll keep them off each other, and-and I’ll make sure Dear leaves his pocket blade outside the library. And-
HOME: [Windows open and shut, a bit like laughter]
BARNABY: Wha!? Oh c’mon! Eddie can survive without his knife for one day! And PIllar won’t be allowed to bring that darned shotgun into the library either! He never has been! I’ve never allowed weapons or-or anything of the sort into the library! In fact, he knows all about it! Don’t you?
…Hello? Little one? Pal?
…Hey, y-you stopped painting..
…Everything alright, Darling?

HIII I HAVE A REQUEST!! like maybe like step 3 cove asking fem reader to prom their senior year!! it’s a really nice proposal with a sign and flowers and stuff, MAYBE BY THE BEACH?/?1)?2
but he’s also like rlly nervous and kinda fucks up but reader accepts anyway because they’re in LOOOVEEEE AND ITS JUDT RLLY CUTE AND STUFF
OMG YES<3 I've beent thinking abt prom w cove for days now. this is LONG btw, sm so I will make headcanons/another drabble with cove n reader clothes shopping and at prom <3
tags : fluff, step 3 cove, fem reader (use of she/her pronouns & girlfriend), non-established relationship but yk abt each others feelings n it becomes established
synopsis : cove asks you prom and it goes almost horribly wrong.
Tumblr media
cove is totally shitting himself with nerves.
everyone has been asking their crushes, lovers, and friends to prom and cove wants to ask you so bad. he sees you looking a bit longingly at the public proposals and the way you stare at him afterwards with a look of anticipation and want has him reeling.
after a late night of looking at prom proposals and seeing one too many people get rejected at school, cove knew a public proposal was out of the question.
he'd die if you rejected him, and a public display of that would make him flee the country for sure...
cove had enlisted the help of his dad, a willing volunteer after cove almost busted at the seems during dinner last night with anxiety and tears.
they drove all the way to Prism Vista to pick up supplies, the likelihood of you seeing them at the store too high and cove certainly couldn't handle the teasing or knowing eye of the clerks, everyone knowing what time of year this was for seniors.
as his dad pulled into the driveway, cove exhaled shakily, noticing that you were still out with your family.
quickly snatching the stuff in his arms, cove slams the trunk and winces.
cliff laughs at his son's haste and tender nerves and throws the front door open so they can make haste on the board.
it takes a bit of planning, and the only thing cove tasked his dad with was the calligraphy, cove's hands far too shaky for such big letters, but he glues on plastic seashells and sand dollars for awhile before he helps his dad with painting the letters as he becomes more focused and determined to make this the greatest promposal ever.
eventually cliff left, letting cove take over now that he didn't need help with the preparations.
it's a corny poster, with "will you be my mermaid to my merman at prom?" in pretty blue letters and 'prom' in yellow glitter.
cove sits back, a bit hot from being hunched over and moving around as he ogled and analyzed the poster while working.
he wipes his forehead and moves the board to the guest bedroom where he knows you won't see it if you decide to sneak in his bedroom.
cliff notices cove cleaning up, and he perks up at his son's relaxed movements. "hey bud, all finish? how about we order some pizza?"
Tumblr media
cove wasn't ready. well he was, he had the bouquet of your favorite flowers and the sign, and he even bought your favorite food from one of the restaurants in Sunset Bird.
instead of his usual way of entry, cove makes his way to your front door and knocks.
your ma opens the door, a sweet smile on her face but with a knowing look only a mother could have, cove pulled at the the collared shirt he wore and he really hoped between this half buttoned shirt and jeans, you didn't know what he was planning...
"cove, sweetie! looking for y/n?" noelani smiled, biting back a snicker.
cove distantly thinks that he hopes the sign doesn't blow away while he's here.
"y-yeah... um, is she here?"
pamela appears from behind, having been laid up in the living room. "I'll get her for you, don't run off!"
noelani hisses a scolding "pam!" at her wife's teasing and smacks her lips as pamela walks up the stairs to your room. "sorry sweetie, you're too easy for her to tease." she says bashful, knowing very well she can't help but snicker sometimes at cove and y/n's romantic fumbles and years of pining.
as cove distracts himself with small talk, you come down the stairs with pamela.
cove feels his heart beat against his chest, like a bee stuck in a window. he hoped you couldn't hear it, and with the way he felt, he hoped you couldn't see it beating out his chest as well..
in cove's hazy state, your moms have left and it's just you two.
"hey cove! what's up?"
cove swallows, wiping his hands on his jeans. you watch his mannerisms, you know them by heart and you see the sweat on his brow even though there's a chill in the air as the night befalls you.
"h-hey y/n.." great. as if he wasn't obvious before. "um, I wanna show you something, i-if that's okay.." cove laughs, and he tries to push away his worry. you never rejected him before, you always agreed with his crazy ideas or encouraged him to a better plan of action that still fulfilled cove's mild (or major, if he's feeling particularly bad) need for adventure.
you agree, and make your way across poppy hill.
before you reach the shore, cove instructs you to cover your eyes and he'll guide you to his surprise.
cove beams as your trust him, your eyes closed and covered by your hands as he takes you by the shoulders and helps you down the hill.
as you approach the park, cove sighs with relief as he sees his preparations are still there, he can even see the board hiding behind the jungle gym.
cove paced, waving his hands in front of you in a 'stay there' motion, as if you'd leave.
"tell me when i can open my eyes!" you laugh.
cove exhales, taking in deep breaths before he held it in anticipation.
he reached for the sign, briefly he thought about how embarrassing this was, he wished he could skip ahead but seeing your hopefully happy expression would make every second worth it.
"okay... open your eyes."
you shed your hands, and blink as you adjust to the light. eventually you beat the glare of the sun, and your mouth dropped in awe and shock.
cove feel hot under his collar, the breeze does nothing to relieve his edge.
while you're silent for the most part, besides a mumbled "what's this?.." that almost washes away with the beating waves of the sea.
cove speaks, "y/n.. i know you've been waiting for me to ask you, and uh.. i'm sorry i didn't ask you sooner. i was afraid you'd say no and that i'd embarrass myself and.." cove sighed, adjusting his grip.
"never mind. that's not what I wanted to say. y/n... i really like you, i have for a long time.. and i wanna go to prom with you. as my date."
cove flushed, his cheeks rivaling the color of the blushing evening sky.
you stood there, silently and shocked, but happiness bloomed on your face quickly. with watery eyes and a blinding grin you brushed cove's hands so he'd drop the poster.
cove drops the poster, smiling shakily as you wrapped your arms around him. "i like you too cove, so much. and i'd love to go to prom with you!"
cove grinned, happy as a peach. buoyed by the new development, he cupped your face. "can i.. kiss you?"
you nod, leaning into each others embrace and your lips meet in the middle.
you break apart, cove's head falls to your shoulder and water washes over your sandaled feet.
wait. water?..
the food! cove jumps up, suddenly remembering how close he'd put the food to the shoreline and the rising tide.
"the food! the flowers!" cove scrambles to the wet blanket he laid out, wishing he'd noticed this sooner.
he picks up the bag of take out, noticing how soaked the food already is. the tide must of washed over the food before cove came back.
thankful for small miracles, the flowers are only damp on one side but not bruised or flattened.
cove holds up the bouquet and presents it yet holds it close. "well... the food is ruined. the flowers are okay though?.." cove smiled sheepishly.
you sigh and approach, curling your hands around cove's trembling worried ones. "thank you for the bouquet, it's beautiful."
"i'm sorry.. i should've known i-" cove rambles.
"cove.." you try to sooth him.
"i hope you still wanna go with me, even after the majority of the surprise is ruined.." cove deflated, looking like a sad puppy who got his treat stolen by the other pup.
"cove! it's okay!" you push back his bangs, "I still wanna go to prom with you, even if our food and flowers almost got washed away for the fishes.."
he leans into your hand, blinking watery eyes.
"i'm glad.." cove brushes his nose against yours, leaning into your body. "so uh.. are we dating now?"
you laugh, "yes cove, if you'll have me as your girlfriend that is."
"of course!" cove kisses you again.
this is a great way to end your senior year.

barb!! seeing as how it's almost the 14th..
how do the ROs celebrate valentine's day? 🩷
Roe - Is going to enjoy the night off (everyone is too busy to bother the Alpha right now... at least they hope so)
Marco - There is a noodle shop downtown that is giving discounts to singles on the 14th. Marco is going in dog mode to beg (and maybe cheer a few people up).
Shawnie - Is watching cheap romance movies, waiting excitedly for the post valentines day sexy knickers discount.
Vicky - Grew a flower from seed for this day.
Farro - Is totally unaware that valentines is happening until Hani shows up with chocolates she most definitely stole.
Ed - Tried to make a fancy card by following an online tutorial. It didn't quite work. The attempt left glitter in his hair and glue on his fingers.
Sergi - Has organised a picnic date on the hill... except it's raining and he forgot to buy chicken.
Carrie - Has a bunch of roses. May or may not throw them at a romanced MC.

part 2. I think this is the first time I've actually written a part 2 to anything I wrote lol.
Literally how do I keep reaching the character limit???
"Uh eyeshadow and fishnets." He answers finally. "But back to you. I didn't even know you had heels." Eddie sounds strained. Steve laughs and wraps his hands around himself. Looking up at Eddie, especially when he looks like that, is too much. Getting hard in the bodysuit is going to get uncomfortable.
Eddie plays with Steve's bunny ears and Steve can't help but watch his arm. The tattoos over the muscles move like they're alive. Steve reaches over and looks at Eddie's nails. They're long and pointy, not shiny and some gold designs on the ring fingers.
"I don't but I can walk in them. Nancy thought it would be funny I guess." Steve replies after a little bit. Eddie coughs and pulls his hands back and stuffs them in his pockets. Steve looks away and they people watch for a while, the silence between them is nice, the music is loud and Steve gets lost in it. "How'd you make the fangs? And the horn?" "Ah clay for the horns and some fake nails and denture glue for the teeth." Steve looks up in surprise. "So they're stuck on there?" Eddie presses his tongue on them. "Nah they'll pop off if I press too hard."
Steve wants to see just how much pressure they can take but Eddie looks like he's in pain. Probably the horns. And the music. Steve points to the stairs. "You want to go somewhere quiet?" Eddie smirks and leans down to Steve's face. "You want to get me alone pretty bunny?" Steve felt his face get hot and pushed him away. "That's not what I meant. You look like you're about to fall over." Eddie's smirk gets softer. "I'm ok, just didn't expect there to be so much to take in." Steve nods. "I get that." "Ah but I bet, Mr Popular, that you're used to this."
Steve shakes his head. "Even in high school, my parties would be 10 people max. It was too much." Eddie purses his lips. "Bet you could handle more." He's flirting right? Steve couldn't tell if Eddie was serious or not. "I could handle a lot." Steve agreed, and decided to push back. Test the waters. "Could definitely handle whatever parties you threw." Eddie plays with his hair. His rings catching the light and the glitter on his cheekbones. "You couldn't handle whatever I gave out." Steve rolls his eyes. "I'm a big boy I could take it." Eddie's eyes flash for a moment. "I bet you could." Hook, line, and sinker.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Steve bites. Eddie looks chagrined. "Sorry, poor word choice." He bows a little, dramatically. "You should watch what you say to the king." Steve jokes, and Eddie falls to his knees. "Forgive me, my king." Fuck. He forgot just how well Eddie rolls with punches. "Take me upstairs, my fallen dragon knight." Eddie grinned and picked Steve up, tossing him over his shoulder.
With a little effort Eddie takes Steve upstairs. The chances of a clear room is slim, so they just find a quiet corner. "How shall I repent?" Eddie swallows and sits down, Steve sitting between his legs, throwing his own legs across one of Eddie's. "Take off these shoes. My feet hurt and I'm too lazy." Eddie laughs, but it sounds a little forced. He reaches down and gently unclasps Steve's shoes and takes them off. Happily, Steve sighs and wiggles his toes. Much better.

A Broken Couple - a short story by me!
This is an old one written several years ago, but I still appreciate its existence.
Tumblr media
TW: parents fighting. It has a bittersweet-ish (depending on how you see it) ending though!
...
The little girl sprinkled a few more bits of glitter into the almost dry glue, then lifted it up and smiled, ignoring the extra glitter falling onto her pajamas. It was perfect, and that was all that mattered. Perfect for the perfect people.
She ran down the stairs and sat outside the front door, waiting excitedly for her parents to come home from their wedding anniversary date. She checked the clock, confirming that they should be home soon...
Then the sound of a familiar car engine reached her ears, and the little girl sat up excitedly, gripping the card tightly with anticipation.
The door opened, and the little girl sat up eagerly to greet her parents, then stopped short.
Their faces were.. Not right. They weren’t smiling, like the way they were before they had left. They turned at her in surprise, then gave a forced smile to their daughter, kissing her.
The little girl held her clasped hand behind her back, her grip on the card loosening.
Her mother’s smile, after kissing her daughter, dropped off of her face, and she turned briskly, plopped her bag onto the coffee table, then stomped upstairs. Her parent’s bedroom door shut loudly.
That was a bad sign. Her mother never slammed doors.
Her father, who had been untying his shoes, looked up sharply at the noise. His expression was unreadable as he put his bag beside his wife’s, and he followed her up the stairs. A second slam followed, and the little girl winced.
She felt a little sick now. She felt a strange sense of foreboding as she stared down at her card, then back up at the supposedly silent upper floor.
The little girl swallowed, slipping off of the couch and quietly climbing up the stairs. When she reached the top of the stairs, she heard a voice that sounded alarmingly like her father’s utter an angry swear.
The little girl felt her blood turn to ice and her heart beat faster. It wasn’t because he had swore, because she was much too young to understand that sort of thing. It was because he had yelled. Her father never yelled… Right?
She stepped closer to the door of the bedroom and, taking a deep breath, gingerly pressed her ear to it. She couldn’t make out what they were saying, but, she knew one thing:
They were shouting. Yelling. Angrily. At each other.
On their wedding anniversary.
The little girl felt frozen as her little ear listened to them argue with no remorse whatsoever, and she felt her small legs collapse to the floor as her heart shattered.
She had been vividly aware of the fact that her parents were hiding something.. Something that made them stop talking to each other and glare at each other unceasingly the next day, but she never knew what it was, nor expected that it was something like this.
She stared at the card she had made. A sob escaped her mouth, and she ran into the bathroom and thew it into the garbage. She ran into her room and slammed the door closed. She collapsed onto her bed, her breathing erratic, and wept.
The next day, her parents weren’t talking. Of course they weren’t. They barely even glanced at the little girl herself, and the little girl gave up trying to eat breakfast harmoniously and abruptly left the house for school without a word. She slammed the door closed.
Her parents stared at it wordlessly in shock and surprise. Then the father, who had been staring at his coffee a moment ago, shook his head, standing and leaving the table. With her gone, he didn’t even want to try to maintain the act anymore.
He climbed the stairs to throw out the trash from the bathroom. Taking the bin, he carried it down without so much as a glance to its contents.
He opened the larger garbage can in the back and dumped the smaller bin’s contents into it. He glared at all the things in the trash that belonged to his wife, when something caught his eye. Something pink and sparkly.
Normally, he didn’t care for anything of the sort, but it did make him think of his daughter, and he remembered her strange behavior. Suddenly, he had the overwhelming urge to find out what the thing in the trash was.
He reached his hand in and fished it out, ignoring the smell with ease. When his hand clamped onto it, he held it up. It was a small, dirty piece of paper with a glittery heart on the front.
Narrowing his eyes, he read, “For mommy and daddy, the best couple in the world.”
The father held his breath and hesitantly took it inside, and, tentatively, he called to his wife with a shaky voice.
She looked up at him suspiciously, until she saw what he was holding. She stood up and went to his side, ignoring his flinch when she came into such close proximity, and her eyes immediately darted to the small, untidy scrawl of her daughter. Then she went red, and she reached over and opened it, so that she and her husband were holding it together.
They read;
“Dear mommy and daddy,
You are my favorite mommy and daddy in the whole wide world, because you love each other SO MUCH, and still get to love me! I wanna be just like you with my future husband when I grow up, because you’re so, so perfect!
Love, Your daughter.”
The two parents stared at the letter, stunned senseless. Their eyes blurred as tears slid down their faces, and the father sat down with a shaky breath.
The mother stared at the letter, then at her husband, and her face contorted as she broke into brokenhearted cry.
The father blinked away tears and stood up again, and, slowly, he embraced his wife. Their knees shook and they fell to the ground.
The sounds echoed through the house in a crescendo as a broken couple sobbed together.

The girls wanting to throw a childrens party for mom🥹 yes I’m selfish. I need a throwback party. Piñatas, birthday crowns and sashes birthday hats. CHEESY INVITES?! I’m sorry😭😭
“Party for mommy!”
A/N: Happy birthday sweets!! @creme-delacreme 🥳
Tumblr media
Both you and Jack had a weekend getaway planned for your birthday, meaning you wouldn’t be celebrating with the girls like usual. You were actually kind of sad about it, you were so used to doing birthdays at home that you felt guilty doing some thing without them.
What you didn’t know is that Jack and the girls also had a surprise planned for you at home. Your birthday was on a Tuesday and you and Jack were leaving on Thursday morning, you just assumed you’d sing happy birthday with the girls and eat cake but Jack and the girls had other plans.
Hazel, Jade and Jack spent the earlier parts of last week making handmade invites, usually when you were doing laundry or grocery shopping. Your parents, Jacks parents, Clay, Urban and his kids were the only people invited so invitations didn’t take too long. Jack was grateful for that considering he was running low on glue sticks and glitter.
Hazel had told Jack almost a month ago that she wanted to have a party for you like her and Jade usually have and Jack loved the idea. Hazel knew you would be gone for the weekend and wanted to do something to celebrate with you at home still. The girls and Jack were sneaky, he got all of your decorations without you knowing and he knew you’d love them. He had remembered you telling him about all the “Lisa Frank” things you had as a kid so he tried to reimagine that. Ordering a few things online as well, to really solidify things.
Tuesday came around and you had left early in the day to get your hair and nails done for your birthday weekend, Jack scheduled it that way on purpose. The second you left he pulled all of the decorations out and had the girls help him. Jade was so excited when Jack brought in the unicorn piñata, she was distracted immediately by it.
“Hazel, can you and Jade put a table cloth on the kitchen table for me?” He handed Hazel a hot pink table cloth and she nodded. “Come on Jade, we have to hurry before mommy comes back.” They set that out and then Jack had them help with little things, they set the plates and party hats out while Jack filled the piñata.
Everything was finally decorated when the doorbell rang, it was Urban, Ivy and Everly. “Mommy’s still not home” Jade said as Urban went to give her and Hazel a hug. “Oh no? Not yet?”
“Nope” Jade giggled as she ran off with her cousins.
“Is Clay picking up the food?” Urban asked as he helped Jack finish tying some balloons on the obnoxious balloon arch he ordered.
“Yeah and my mom made a cherry cheesecake, I think” he said with an exhausted smile.
“She’s going to love it dude, why are you stressing?”
“Oh I know she’ll love it, the girls is what I’m worried about. They were so sad we were going to be gone this weekend that they wanted to make sure we had a birthday party for mommy” he laughed.
Clay, Maggie and Brian entered the house with the food and cheesecake. Hazel and Jade came running immediately to greet everyone.
“Grandma! Grandma! Did you make cheecake?” Jade asked excitedly.
“I did bug! Ya know, I think a quarter of you is probably made up of cheesecake” she teased earning a giggle from Jade and a laugh from Jack “I think you’re right about that one.”
Your parents arrived right after earning the same excited giggles from your daughters. They didn’t live in Louisville so seeing them was always exciting for the girls.
“Grandma! Grandpa!” Hazel said excited as her grandma picked her up and gave her a big hug.
Hazel walked around handing out crowns and hats making sure everyone was in birthday party uniform.
Eventually you arrived at your house, wondering why there was so many cars parked outside. You noticed your parents car immediately and ran inside.
“Happy birthday mommy!” Jade said innocently before everyone yelled it. Jade not liking the loud noise ran to you immediately and you picked her up before hugging everyone.
“Mom! Dad! What’re you doing here?” You giggled as you hugged them both.
“Jack said the girls wanted to throw you a party before your trip and we figured we’d get to see you and then we can stay and watch them while you’re gone.” Your mom smiled and you nodded.
You finished greeting everyone and finally got to your husband. “You really pulled this off, I didn’t suspect a thing” you giggled. “Really?” He smiled as he leaned in for a kiss. “Really!”
Hazel came over to you and handed you a crown “this is for the birthday girl” you laughed as you placed it in your hair. Hazel cleared her throat looking at Jack for him to do his part “oh! And this is for you too!” He handed you a homemade sash “birthday mommy” it said in glitter and you half giggled as you put it on.
You turned to see the cheesecake “oh! Thank you Maggie!” She laughed “no problem sweetie!” You picked Jade up pointing to the cheesecake “you have no idea how much cheesecake mommy consumed when you were in her belly.” Maggie snorted “I basically said the same thing.” You laughed and put Jade back down.
“I got a piñata too” Jack whispered and you laughed “did you really?” He nodded and Clay made eye contact with you, you knew he heard Jack. “Oh no Clayborn, I’m so serious you better let me hit it first” you laughed and he already had the stick to hit it with. You chased him out of the house and Jack laughed “okay everyone! Guess it’s piñata time!”
Everyone went outside and watched as a few of you took a turn, trying to bust the piñata open with zero luck. Urban was finally able to bust it open.
While everyone collected candy of the floor you took a second to turn to Jack. “Thank you for today, I really needed it. You’re always so thoughtful.”
“Don’t thank me, it was the girls idea” he hummed and you kissed his cheek. “Either way, I’m pretty damn lucky.”
“And pretty damn old” he teased.

tw. alcohol. swearing
your head felt fuzzy and your vision was slightly blurry at the edges. your words slurred as you asked a face you've already forgotten where bakugo was. wordlessly (or did they say something? you couldn’t hear over the music.) they pointed towards the back of the room where bakugo stood slouched over, a hand shoved into his pocket another nursing a cup of something and his usual scowl etched onto his face as he looked on the crush of people laughing and dancing. 
at the sight of the explosive boy, a large dopey grin spreads onto your lips and you yell out his name, making your way over to him, grasping at couches and people to help keep your balance. his flaming ruby eyes zeroed onto you as you stumbled over to him with your hands outstretched. you crave to hold him, to touch him, to feel him beneath your aching fingertips, and tonight you’ve finally crumbled to the roaring need.
“y/n? are you drunk?” he scoffed and reached out to hold you, the glitter of worry in his beautiful beautiful eyes (why does he get to have such pretty eyes?) contrasting his snarky tone.
“i need a hug.” you merely said, ignoring his hands and instead throwing your arms around his neck, fastening yourself onto him like glue. 
you could feel him tense and freeze up underneath you, but you were too caught up in the euphoria to realise. too caught up in the sheer wonder and amazement of his warmth and his smell and the feel of him against your flushed skin and oh god you’re hugging bakugo katsuki. 
your drowsy eyes flashed open and you started pushing away. but before you could even lift your head, his arms wrapped around your waist and pulled you somehow even closer than before. “If you need a hug, i’ll give you a hug ok dumbass? just ask next time.” he gruffed, hooking his chin over your shoulder.
your mouth gaped open for a moment, but your alcohol-addled mind removed any semblance of shock that should have reverberated through you, and instead you melted in his hold, nuzzling your head into his neck with a comfortable sigh. 
“you’re very pretty.” you mumble, still holding tight onto him. “‘s not fair.”
bakugo chuckled and feeling the vibrations from his chest against yours brought a whole new crashing wave of emotion to flood your veins. “of course it’s when you’re drunk.”
“what?” you lift your heavy head and blink slowly up at him, puzzled. 
“don’t worry about it sweet cheeks, let’s just get you some water and put you to bed. you need some sleep.”
“no!” you exclaim, shaking your head vigorously, and shoving your head back into the crook of his neck. “please can we just stay here for a bit?” 
bakugo sighed and hummed in agreement, rubbing circles on the small of your back with the pad of his thumb.
you both stayed there, solid in the midst of the constant waves of people for you didn’t know how long. it could have been the rest of the night, or it could have been a couple of seconds but all you could remember was the warmth that unfurled within you and ran through your veins as you were completely entranced by the boy that was holding you just a little too tightly.

Some Rambly Thoughts About Custom G1 Ponies…
Okay sorry in advance: Rereading some of these thoughts I am a little bit mean tonight. but i do not care lol I am ranting for fun.
I am A little annoyed at those types of people who criticize anyone who makes MLP G1 customs because they think its immoral to customize a vintage toy since they arent made anymore (….you could say the same thing about like, g4 since thats over now, but okay).
It is perfectly fine, and even good, to customize a vintage toy at times.
Most customizers are smart and will seek out “bait” (damaged) ponies to customize. If they’re already broken or damaged, customizing it is like giving it a new life, even if theyre not restoring it to be exactly how it is before. In fact: Sometimes it may be cheaper to customize a pony than restore it!
For example: The pony I made my extraterra custom of was Moondancer. She had cut hair and no cutiemark, her glitter for her cutiemark had completely faded away. Now, ive restored a moondancer before so I actually have everything i would need to have fixed her, but like. lets say i wasn’t a restorationist who had all the materials: I would have to pay for each of the hair colors I need (about 15 bucks when you factor in shipping) and then another 15-20 bucks to buy the rehairing tool and needles and then 5 bucks on quality glue and a few more bucks on zipties to retail her and then id have to buy glitter. I personally buy biodegradeable glitter but the kind i get is a little expensive especially since i have to get it shipped from overseas so im paying like 20 more bucks- Moondancer is one of the most common ponies and typically sells for around 15 bucks total o-o. Not that I don’t see value in restoring common ponies (I will restore at least 1 of every pony so that I can add her to my collection, no matter how damaged) but like. Most people don’t wanna throw all their money away to do that for a cheap common pony when they COULD put their money into those same supplies (hair, tools, paint, ect) and have fun making a cool new unique piece of artwork.
2. Even if the pony isn’t damaged: Is it your toy? Is that YOUR toy that the person customized? No? It was their Own Toy That They Paid For With Their Own Money? then shut the fuck up its not your business what they do with their toys 😭 Yeah it would hurt my heart if someones out there buying expensive rare ass ponies just to customize them when there are cheaper alternatives to certain poses (like if someone customized a night glider when they could have just used like, posey or someone for the pose) but its not my business because its not my toy and I accept that people can do whatever the fuck they want with their own property.
And anyways, most customizers DO care about vintage toys and will seek out the more common ponies with the poses they need, I don’t think anyone who is truly invested in the pony fandom uses ultra rare ponies for their customs UNLESS theyre already damaged, in which case I just see it as giving it new life. Also, customizers utilize projects like the HQG1C project or Basic Funs ponies, so you dont Have to use vintage toys to actually make a g1 custom anymore.
but I also dont think people should be shamed for using vintage bases. It can be convenient if you have bait ponies laying around. Especially since sometimes there Is No Good Alternative. like for example: I would love to make a custom of my pony design for Gregory Fnaf, but I would need a kinda rarer hard to get pose (the baby brother ponies with the molded hooves). I personally won’t make any customs unless i can find a damaged one, but if i COULD find a damaged vintage baby boy i would absolutely use it because whats the alternative when some poses are just flat out rare :(
Also to the people who just hate vintage customs in general: Sorry but youre boring. You dont like fun new designs in the g1 style? You want everything to be made with current toys? My autism makes me think about ponies 90% of the time, and for 99% of the time im thinking about ponies, i forget g4 and g5 even exist because im so focused on the older gens. Not everyone cares about the new stuff. You dont like the older gens or people using their creativity to make art relating to the older vintage gens? Youre boring as hell, sorry
Final thing I wanna say: this rant is inspired by many posts complaining about customs but the one that made me the most mad was someone complaining about G1 customs and then finishing their post with “and you could TELL that it was their first time making a custom like that :/ “
Fucking excuse you? Customs are an art form, plain and simple. And everyone has to start somewhere. do you think my first ever custom pony was any good? (for anyone curious its not one ive posted on this blog, it was a fakie) hell no I made many mistakes! But you shouldnt shame or insult people for their art, we all start somewhere and frankly you’re just mean.

Tay, what stupid item would the AOT characters order from online pickup that would make you roll your eyes?
The fact that I have both a Jaeger and an Ackerman that regularly order from my store lmao.
This sort of became what I think they’d order period lol.
Mikasa: Weight lifting equipment and accessories. She’s one of those people that orders the 40 lbs or more weights that threaten the integrity of our carts the entire time we haul it across the store. 💪🏻
Armin: Hmm. I don’t think I’d really roll my eyes at anything he ordered, but we’d probably be out of most of his stuff. I feel like he’d eat organic and super healthy and I always feel bad when we’re out of that stuff. 🍲
Eren: Chips. Just all of the junk food. Cookies, Doritos and Soda. There’s always be a video game mixed in too. There wouldn’t be a single healthy item in the mix. 🍪
Jean: 60+ bananas. Very confusing, but really he’s just making smoothies and freezing them for breakfast. He gets a ton of strawberries and Kale too! 🍌
Connie: I like to think of the modern version of him as an up and coming YouTuber/TikToker, so he’d always just get a ton of trendy stuff. At one point there is just so many slime packages and giant gallon bottles of glue and glitter. ✨
Sasha: She doesn’t get anything particularly outrageous, but orders three times a week and it’s a lot of food. A lot. We just assume she’s in a giant family, but still it’s a lot and often.
Erwin: I highly doubt he’d use pickup, I just think he’d be so bad with technology and would probably enjoy walking around the store. If he did the order would just be tiny, probably only a few food items (a lot of yogurt, I think he’d like yogurt) and a bunch of History, How To or Self Help Books. Maybe some romances, I low key see him into them. 📚
Hange: Rope and duct tape. We’re all very concerned that the order is just that, but in reality it’s actually not what we’re thinking. They’re actually doing a project for science, but it certainly raises some eyebrows. Also A LOT of coffee.
Levi: I see him as super picky and very stingy, so I don’t really see him as shopping at Walmart. If he did I think he’d do it in person and aim for anything that’s clearanced, especially the meats. He definitely wouldn’t like any of our tea, he’d go for the fancier loose leaf stuff. Maybe he’d order sewing supplies and a lot of crafty fix-it-at-home stuff, but I think his orders would mostly blend in. 🧵 🪡
Reiner: Those giant jugs of protein powder and very often. He’d get the weirder flavors too, like the sour patch kids ones. Every once and awhile he throws in a cute kids outfit (it’s for his niece Gabi) and we’re all confused by the juxtaposition.
Historia: She’d probably order all her bras and panties online because she feels embarrassed shopping for them in person.
Ymir: All the food she orders is super spicy 🌶️ Gets the ghost pepper flavors of hot sauce.
Moblit: My store doesn’t sell alcohol, but if we did, that. Also Death Wish coffee 💀
Porco: A lot of hair gel and axe body spray
Pieck: She gets all the seasonal plush blankets for every holiday. Like every variation for Halloween, Christmas, Thanksgiving, etc. Just hoards all the blankets.

It alright if I ask how Sun and Moon would cope with an absolute gremlin child reader who is not a gremlin in a "deserves time out way" but a "somehow sets up prank booby traps and sticks googly eyes in funny places while no one is watching" way, like mischievous gremlin rather than horrible hellspawn gremlin, like maybe they even messed with the light switch without anyone noticing because they didn't turn the light off, they kinda just glued googly eye on it to give it a face and it's only noticed when people go to turn the lights off for Naptime and they mess with Moon by making him look for them then he always finds them taking a nap with the other kids?
Like they weren't there before, it's like they just somehow just appeared there, sneaky mischievous gremlin child. Sorry I made this longer than I thought I would, I found the idea funny and tend to go into details when that happens, hope this idea makes you laugh like it did for me.
More gremlin child heck yeah lmao
How Sun/Moon would deal with a Gremlin Child!Y/N (Part 2)
☀️
Secretly, Sun finds harmless gremlin behavior pretty endearing- of course, he can't actually say that, because then you'd both get in trouble...
But that doesn't stop him slipping you one or two extra glitter glue bottles or packets of googly eyes at the crafts table.
Plus he's just so busy with everything going on, he totally missed you covering one of the ballpit balls with glue and throwing it at the desk! Whoopsie daisy!
That being said, booby traps are a bit too far, because getting the other kids covered in glitter is a no-no (tears and a lengthy clean-up is no fun for anybody!) You will find yourself in timeout for that one.
🌙
Moon is less inclined to hide his amusement at your antics, giggling as he watches you plaster glow in the dark stickers everywhere. It's funny.
He helps you channel your, ahem, "creative energy" sometimes. One night, he had you help put all the other kids to sleep by (safely) carrying you while he's using the wire and letting you sprinkle a small amount of "sleepy dust" (glitter) over the others. It worked, the kids loved it, and there were no large incidents for him or Sun to clean up.
Moon is somewhat less amused when you straight up vanish- it gives him a pseudo-heart-attack each time- but you always show back up, either napping peacefully (he knows you were gone, you little rascal, you can't trick a robot) or looking up from your latest creation and smiling at him.

Preface: This isn't anything polished, just a thought dump for convenience's sake. I realized I enjoy a variety of different China characterizations as long as they fall along a general line, but despite not seeing him the same way as canon, I never sat down and developed my personal main view of him, so I'll lay some preliminary sketches here and work on polishing it when school calms down.
Firstly, as someone unknowably ancient, it's hard to put into words (or even picture) how he would truly act. I'll shelve that for now.
I suppose I see him as such, opposing traits that somehow fit together: Quietly ruthless and pragmatic, but deeply loyal and doting toward family and those who make the cut. Lofty and at time thoughtlessly arrogant - though not dramatically so. In recent years holding within himself a renewed zeal for progress and the strength to carry on through unimaginable pain. He doesn't show his emotions openly, he's subtle, but he holds them close to his chest along with all those he loves. He can be stubborn about the strangest of things, his belief in his own flexibility - not completely unfounded as he's pragmatic enough and proficient at moving with the times and understanding change - nonetheless causes him to cling to certain values he sees as unchanging even more so. He's not great with criticism, especially as he doesn't necessarily think there are many people in a high enough place to criticize him, however if he's horribly defeated he's able to take lessons from his scars. He can both recognize someone as a threat, while not seeing them as an equal.
I like when he's not all power and ancient glory, when there's a quiet sort of wistfulness about him, whispers of all the lives he's lived and things he's seen, everything he believed in that ultimately came crashing down - as all things do. Maybe he was more explosively arrogant in the past but less self-assured, without time to whittle down his edges. I like to imagine him like broken pieces mended together, that he's like jade, proud and precious, but learned to patch his scars with whatever he's had on hand long ago. In his cracks are gold and silver, glue and rubber, steel, resin, some things glitter beautifully in the sun and turn him into art, some things poison him from the inside but are so old they can't be removed. After every collapse, he sits with the pain and slowly stitches himself back together, with nothing by his side but his enduring will to survive. He knows how to forgive, while never forgetting, but when the resentments do exist they run deep.
But when he's powerful, it encompasses him completely. He's not only determined to survive, after all. Despite his arrogance, he's more level-headed than his leadership often is, he knows to think long-term, to set up traps and wait slowly, slowly, slowly, until the rewards emerge. Here is one thing his age helps with. He doesn't derive joy from conquest, doesn't feel pleasure in taking: his power growing is to him just another day, the endless glory of an undying civilization, and all of his unquestioned supremacy that is only reinforced by those moments quietly stitching himself together, that even his conquerors die at his feet.
He does love though, he loves with all of his heart, though it's often unreadable. He might have shown it more, long ago, when he was (unthinkably) young and vibrant and still had the naivety to throw himself into his love and beliefs. But even now. After all, and this is the stupid sentimental idiot inside me talking, doesn't he love his people? Doesn't their lives interlock with his, doesn't he live for them as well, his determination to move forward tied intimately to theirs?
And that's the motherland, the fatherland, I really don't like how these terms are gendered in English asjkldhgdf

Anyway Adora's been arrested trying to sneak into the castle
Tumblr media
FOCUS
Tumblr media
well now I'm actively trying not to think about the fic I read yesterday
Micah put a truth spell on Adora and she's ranting about the portal and all that and it's all true but of course she sounds NUTS
Tumblr media
aaugh
Tumblr media
the portal version of Entrapta ahahah
Tumblr media
lol of course she knows
"Only way to shut the portal off is from the inside,
Tumblr media
and is stuck there forever!!"
Adora mentions Hordak--
Tumblr media
The way her face lights up when talking about Hordak, but then falls when she remembers what Catra did--
Tumblr media
anyway she points out "oh the portal is following you, you need to get your sword out of the portal" to Adora who is, rightfully, a little horrified
Tumblr media
MARA
Tumblr media
oh lord you can see the look on Adora's face when she decides "actually Imma just go get my sword out"

Tumblr media
OHHHHHH GOD

HGGGHHGHGHGHHGHHHHH
oh god I forgot what her voice sounds like when she's corrupted
Tumblr media
it took like four tries to get this one ahaha

Tumblr media
*squints at the username of the gifmaker* whatever. I'm just happy to find the exact gif I was looking for, for once, anyway, it's the fusion scene of Malachite from Steven Universe
It's not a sex-related feeling but it's not NOT a sex-related feeling??? I'm not sure if it's related to monsterfucking? the inherent eroticism of realizing a not-quite-human character could kill you for funsies?
I mean also Evelynn from K/DA does it to me sometimes (and she's literally like "but what if getting murdered was ~sexy~"). Hm. 🤔
Tumblr media

Tumblr media

Tumblr media
well also emotional posting because AUGH
Catra's just like, throwing her around (in various fake portal versions of places they've previously been) and Adora's not even really trying to defend herself
Tumblr media
and Catra's taunting her with variations on "this is all your fault"
Tumblr media
Like this is literally Adora's worst nightmare
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
Tumblr media
I actually already have a screenshot of this saved somewhere because I was attempting to draw it so I could color it with watercolors and then glue super fine glitter over the glow-y parts, I think I got as far as some of the pencil lines, I should find that....of all the scenes in this show, that's the one I wanted to draw/paint.
Tumblr media
And then Adora starts fighting back finally, but also: 😏
Tumblr media
YEAH TELL HER
"I didn't break the world, but I am going to fix it!"
(I mean yeah but also: adds another mark on the page titled "times Adora tried to sacrifice herself to save other people")
"And you? You made your choice!" and hooboy that made Catra real mad
Tumblr media
LOL I RAN OUT OF IMAGES I knew I would with this one okay hold on
