Tumblr media
"...and l/n...you go to the oncology department and see what you can find that relates to these symptoms." house concluded, finishing giving out orders as he slumped into his office chair. cameron, chase and foreman all made eyes at each other, you, then at house.
"what?" you asked innocently. the four of them said nothing for a moment, before house spoke up.
"i think a certain oncologist will be...excited to see you."
you rolled your eyes and gathered your notes. "you four are children, which is saying something considering i'm the youngest."
you left the room, ignoring the snickering behind you. you made your way downstairs, trying to ignore what house had said.
it had started a few weeks ago when dr wilson came to see house for an innocent enough reason, but when he saw you, he immediately became flustered and couldn't stand still. house picked up on it immediately and as soon as wilson had left, the four of your colleagues had teased you relentlessly for 'turning dr wilson on'.
you entered the oncology lab, closing the door softly behind you. you made for the computer, but someone stepped in front of you as you stepped forward, causing you to bump into them and drop your files.
"ah, sorry, i-" it was dr wilson. when his eyes met yours, he stammered over his words. "l/n...hi, sorry, i wasn't looking where i was going'"
the two of you bent down to pick up your things, and as you reached for your notebook, so did he, and your fingertips touched gently. you pulled away, embarrassed, and allowed him to scoop your belongings up before handing them back to you.
"thank you, dr wilson." you replied, looking up at the older man. something in his face changed as you said this, it was as if you calling him 'dr wilson' meant a great deal to him.
"yes, well, anyway. i should..." he mumbled, pointing in the vague direction of the opposite side of the room. you chuckled and nodded, before stepping away and towards the computer.
you began to research, enjoying the sounds of dr wilson pottering around the room behind you. about half an hour later, with no luck on developing theories for the case, you decided to get a drink. you stood up and smoothed down your clothes, before heading for the door.
"dr wilson?" you called, and he appeared from behind a bookshelf. his eyes flickered across your body, taking you in. you smiled.
"yes?" he asked.
"do you want anything from the vending machine?"
"no, thank you." he replied, looking away, like a kid who'd been caught staring. you swung open the door and headed to the vending machine.
you had to admit, there was something about dr wilson that you were really drawn too. he was sweet, gentle, and definitely good looking. you sort of hoped that house was right, that dr wilson was attracted to you, but you were also aware of the...legal issues that may cause. but you didn't really care, all you knew for sure was that an attraction to dr wilson was certainly forming.
after collecting a can of coke from the machine, you headed back to the oncology department. you opened the door and sat back at the computer, opening the can as quietly as possible as to not disturb dr wilson. you sipped it cautiously, continuing your research.
you hadn't heard any footsteps approach you, so when you felt a presence behind you, you tensed. the presence hovered, before two hands appeared beside the keyboard, and it appeared that whoever it was was leaning over you, their breath on your neck. you didn't need the voice of the presence to confirm your suspicions, you already knew perfectly well who it was since there was only one other person in the room.
"you know," dr wilson began, his voice controlled and slightly stern. "you really shouldn't be drinking soda in here."
you shivered at his tone. "i know, doctor wilson, but i..."
dr wilson chuckled, lowering his head so it hovered at your shoulder, his mouth was inches from your ear.
"you know you don't have to call me dr wilson, right? my name is james."
"do you not like me calling you that, dr wilson?" you asked with feigned innocence in your honeyed tone, a smirk tugging at your lips.
"it's...quite the opposite, l/n. if you keep calling me that, i won't have any choice but to..."
"to what, doctor wilson?"
dr wilson removed his arms from beside you and stood up behind you, but didn't leave.
"turn around."
"why-"
"turn. around."
you obeyed and swivelled your desk chair. you avoided his gaze, butterflies fluttering in your stomach. dr wilson lazily lifted his hand and gripped your jaw, lifting your head and making you stand up, forcing you to meet his eyes. you batted your lashes sweetly.
he leant forward, seemingly unable to help himself any longer. he pressed his lips to yours, his hand still on your jaw, the other pulling you closer by your waist. he kissed you deeply, before biting down on your lower lip, making you whine.
"b-be gentle with me, dr wilson," you whimpered against his lips, and he groaned, enjoying your innocence and deepening the kiss. you soon pulled away, and the two of you stood motionless, panting.
"i-i should get back to work..." you muttered, feeling fuzzy. dr wilson chuckled.
"here," he said, stepping forward and past you and sat on the swivel chair you previously occupied. he patted his lap. "you can work from here."
you felt your face warm, but turned around and sat down on his lap, facing the computer. his hands held your hips, his thumbs stroking your clothed skin. "you're so obedient." he mumbled in praise. you sighed shakily, before moving your hips in a circular motion ever so slightly, creating friction. dr wilson groaned quietly, his hands pushing you further onto him.
you kept going, grinding into his lap, enjoying his moans and gasps, but also enjoying the friction yourself.
"i wish i could..." dr wilson tried to speak, but it dissolved into nothing.
"you wish what, dr wilson?" you breathed, arching your back inwards in pleasure.
"i wish i could fuck you here and now." he whispered, his hands slithering under your top and roaming up your bare torso, pulling you against him. you moaned, wishing the same, before a noise made both you and dr wilson freeze.
the door had opened into the department.
"wilson? l/n? where are-" cameron's voice filled the silence. she appeared from behind a bookshelf, and stared at the two of you, dumbstruck.
"um....we worked out what was wrong with the patient, so...." she explained, looking anywhere but at the two of you.
"o-okay, thanks." you replied, mortified.
"don't tell house," you and dr wilson said at the exact same time. cameron chuckled exasperatedly.
"your secret's safe with me." she turned and walked out of the room. as the door clicked close, you began to laugh. you allowed dr wilson to push the chair back and you stood up, and he followed suit.
"so do you um..." he began, back to his chivalrous, slightly awkward, doctor-y self. "wanna grab dinner tonight?"
you giggled, and stood on your tip toes to peck his lips. "i'd love nothing more, dr wilson."

🍭 “I love you.” “You do?” with jj maybank :)
i haven't written for this himbo in a hot minute, so thank you for this anna baby!!! pls enjoy pining jj <33
jj maybank x reader, short lil best friends to lovers + love confession, 1.6k
“Holy shit, he’s here and I’m not ready yet! J, go stall for time!” You exclaimed, angling your head towards your bedroom, where JJ had been camped out on your bed for hours now, having been the poor soul relegated to help you choose an outfit for your date tonight. The doorbell had just rung whilst you were in the middle of doing your makeup, nearly sending you into a frenzy. 
“Got it!” He yelled back, heaving himself to his feet and stomping down the hall to answer the door, albeit a bit begrudgingly.
There was nothing he wanted to do less than make small talk with yet another guy that wasn’t him taking you on a date. But you asked, and JJ always did what you asked. It came with the territory of being head over heels in love with your best friend. 
He plastered a neutral look on his face, pulling open the front door only to be met with some dude who he vaguely recognized as being one of Sarah’s slightly less stuck up Kook friends—Preston who the fuck knows what. Probably some fancy ass last name like Berkeshire. Harrington. Vanderbilt. Something hyphenated, or with a Jr. or II tacked on the end of it. 
Preston something or other looked a bit surprised to see him standing on the other side of the door but recovered quickly, guy nodding at him suavely. “Hey man. Is Y/N here?” 
“She’s almost ready.” JJ replied, leaning against the doorframe with crossed arms. Preston nodded again, shifting on his feet. He looked nervous, JJ noticed. Good. Then he noticed the bouquet of flowers clutched in his hand. “Carnations, huh?” 
“Yeah, you think she’ll like them?” He straightened the cellophane surrounding them, tucking a stray leaf back into the bunch. 
“Oh, totally.” JJ was being one hundred percent sarcastic, but Preston didn’t know that. If he really knew you at all, he would know that you hated carnations. That you thought they were tacky and too bright. And if JJ wanted to be a good guy, he’d tell Preston before he made the wrong impression on you. But he wasn’t going to. He knew he probably should, but he wasn’t going to. Call him selfish. “So tell me, Preston, what’s the agenda for tonight? Where are y’all going?” 
“Uh, nowhere special. Dinner at that new bistro on Main and maybe a walk around town afterward.” Preston chuckled awkwardly, licking his lips. 
Damn it. That was actually a really good date idea. 
“Preston, hi!” You interjected breathlessly, rushing past JJ to give the other boy a brief hug. “Sorry to keep you waiting, I hope this one didn’t tell you too many embarrassing stories about me.” 
“I would never.” JJ mock gasped, pressing a hand against his chest. 
“Yes, you would.” 
“Alright, maybe I would.” He shrugged. “Anyways, whatever! Get outta here, kids, go have fun. Not too much fun though, Preston my man! No funny business, have her home by eleven, yadda yadda.” 
“Bye, J. Try not to burn down the house while I’m gone.” 
“I’ll try my best.” He saluted you, ignoring the warmth in his chest when you rolled your eyes playfully at him. Then you were gone, leaving JJ alone. 
He did admit, he worked himself up a little too much waiting for you to come home. Maybe he almost paced a hole in the floor just thinking about what could happen if this date actually went well. He could see it now, ten, fifteen years into the future—you were a Figure 8 trophy wife with two kids who looked annoyingly just like Preston, and JJ was still here on the southside, hopelessly in love with his happily married, Kook-converted best friend. 
Okay, maybe he was overreacting a little bit, but he couldn’t help it. Nothing he did seemed to quell the thoughts ping-ponging around in his brain; all he could do was wait for you to come home and tell him everything, like you always did. 
-------
He straightened up the second he heard your key twisting in the lock, swinging his legs down to the floor from where they’d previously been hooked over the back of the sofa. Play it cool, bro. 
“That’s it!” You huffed, throwing open the front door and traipsing inside, kicking off your shoes before flopping down next to him rather dramatically. “I’m calling it now! I’m never gonna find anyone!” 
JJ thumped your forehead from where your head had landed in his lap upon landing. “I take it the date didn’t go well?”
“That would be the understatement of a century.” 
“Well, I didn’t like him anyways, so.” You squinted up at him, frowning. “What? He got you carnations, Y/N. You hate carnations.” 
“Yeah, but I didn’t hate Preston. He seemed nice, but the whole night, he was just…off, I dunno.” You sighed, waving a vague hand. “It was weird, I saw him this morning and he said he was excited, but when he came here it was like his whole vibe changed.” Part of that was probably his interaction with JJ, but the blond boy held his tongue. You sat up, angling yourself to face him with furrowed brows. “What did you say to him when he got here earlier?”
“Me? I didn’t say shit, I was just sussin’ him out. Simply exercising my duty as best friend.” 
“Bullshit, you were probably sabotaging me!” Grabbing a pillow, you shoved your face into it, letting out a strangled groan. JJ patted your leg soothingly (he hoped), lips pressing into a thin line. “It’s whatever though. I don’t care anymore. I’m just never gonna find love in this lifetime.” 
“Hey, don’t say that,” He chided, easing the pillow away from your face. “That’s not true. You’ll find love.” With me, he wanted to add. He didn’t. 
“Thanks, J. But I don’t…I really don’t know anymore. Maybe I’m being dramatic, but it just feels like everytime I think ‘wow, this could be the time’, it just doesn’t work out.” You mumbled, picking at a loose thread at the hem of your shirt. “Makes me think that maybe it’s me, maybe I’m just unlovable.” 
And that—you thinking that you were unlovable when JJ had loved you all his life—that was the straw that broke the camel’s back. 
“I love you.” He blurted, brows furrowing. 
Your breath caught in your chest, and you hesitated a second. “You do?” 
“Fuck—yeah. Yeah, I do. ‘Course I do.” He sighed, dragging a hand through his already unruly hair, causing it to spring back in every which way. “How could I not?” 
“Since when?” 
“Are you kidding me? Since forever, Y/N. Honestly, probably since the first day we met, back when we were what, seven? You told me you liked my hair. Said it reminded you of gold, then you shared your fruit snacks with me. And that,” JJ chuckled, shaking his head, “that stuck with me, ever since then.” 
“I remember.” You said softly, the memory bringing a small smile to your face. You’d met JJ on the first day of second grade, and it seemed like you’d just been attached at the hip ever since. He knew everything about you, you knew everything about him—except for the fact that he’d been in love with you ever since.
So really, maybe you didn’t know him as well as you thought you did. 
“I can see the gears turning in your head right now.” He bumped his knuckles against your knee, ducking to meet your gaze. “You don’t have to say anything right now, I know it’s—it’s probably hard to take in. But it’s the truth. You were never unloveable, Y/N, you’re fucking perfect. You just…hadn’t found the right guy to love yet. And it might not be me, but I just needed you to know that you’re not doing anything wrong. Those guys are just fucking stupid if they didn’t see what I see in you. What I’ve always seen.”
You didn’t respond, instead just leaning forward and taking his face in your hands and pressing your lips against his, kissing him before you chickened out. If JJ was surprised he masked it well, only taking less than a beat to react. He reached out blindly, hands finding your waist to pull you onto his lap as he kissed you back eagerly. 
“That was—what was that?” He breathed, pink lips parted and now shiny with your lipgloss, eyes bluer than the summer sky gazing wide right at you. 
“Wanted to see if it felt right.” You whispered.
His chest rose and fell, pushing against yours with every deep breath he took in an attempt to keep calm despite his electric nerves. “And did it?” 
“It did.” You confirmed with a nod, a small grin stretching your lips. 
Everything was making sense now, like pieces slotting into a lifelong puzzle. The reason you were having such a hard time finding someone to love and someone to love you was because the person you needed and didn’t realize you wanted had been right in front of you for years, and you’d been too blind to see it all this time. But you saw it now. 
You saw JJ now, and nothing had been clearer. 
“I love you, J.” 
JJ’s eyes fluttered shut almost blissfully, head lolling back against the couch cushions. “Shit, you have no idea how long I’ve been wanting to hear you say that.” He gave your waist a quick squeeze before letting his hand come up to give himself a light slap on the cheek. 
“What’re you doing?” You giggled, tugging his hand away from his face. 
“Making sure this isn’t another one of my dreams.” 
Your brows lifted teasingly. “You dream about me?” 
“All the fucking time, sweetheart.” His fingers traced the inside of your wrist, basking in the feeling of your soft skin warm against his, the view of you sitting on top of him looking like the epitome of beauty. He’d imagined this moment countless times, but never once did he think it would ever become a reality. 
“And how do those dreams usually end?” 
JJ smirked, eyes now gleaming with mischief. “You want me to show you?”

Love your writings! Enemies to lovers with our favourite capo? 👀
Enemies to Lovers - Bruno Bucciarati
notes - SORRY THIS TOOK SO LONG OMFG! It's literally been in my ask box for a year dude. It might not be the best and I apologize, but nonetheless, it was still fun. I hope you enjoy, even if it's silly. word count - 861
Tumblr media
You were told to kill Bruno Bucciarati.
It was part of the job. Kill important people, make lots of money. Easy right?
You looked at yourself in the mirror as you tied up your hair and hid a knife in a garter around your leg. You felt… pretty. You smiled at yourself and turned to look at your outfit.
A ball with mafia members wasn’t rare, and it wasn’t rare that you went to them. You had actually met Bruno on several occasions.
It was such a shame you had to kill the poor man.
He was kind. Kinder than a lot of people you had met on the job. Kind, but he hated you. You knew he did. The way he would look at you over his glass of champagne from across the room, you just knew he wanted to kill you.
Frankly, you didn’t like him much either. You weren’t supposed to be kind in the mafia. If he was supposed to be any sort of boss, he should act like one. You were busting your ass just to hope that you would get promoted while he was building his way up dressed like a model.
You felt really good about the night to come. Never had you been so… nervous about a job.
You walked to the car that was waiting for you just outside of your house and you crawled in, thanking the driver.
It wasn’t a long drive, just a stressful one. You could feel your hands shaking. You had done this a thousand times before, so why was it so hard all of the sudden? You took a deep breath as the car stopped in front of a large mansion. You thanked the driver again and stepped out. The knife you hid was still securely against your thigh, so you walked to the entrance without a second thought.
The ballroom was crowded. Full of thousands of members of the mafia trying to make deals and kill each other. The energy was ecstatic. You loved it.
You scanned the room trying to get something. Anything. Any sign that Bruno was there. He had to be there. You saw dozens of familiar faces, so where was he?
“Hello, y/n.”
You nearly jumped out of your skin hearing Bruno behind you. You turned around and smiled wryly at him.
“Bucciarati.” You nodded.
“How lovely to see you.” He smiled.
“You as well.”
“Champagne?” He held out a glass to you with golden, bubbly liquid.
You took it with a smile. “How considerate.” You took a long sip, not once taking your eyes off of Bruno. The knife on your leg was getting antsy.
“Would you care to dance?” Bruno asked.
He was making this easy for you… too easy. You gave him a side eye, but took his hand anyway, setting your drink down on the table, knowing that you would probably never see it again.
Bruno swept you onto the dance floor, perfectly wrapping his arm around your waste. Dare you think that he was trying to make you fall in love.
“So, what are you doing here?” he asked quietly.
“What everyone else is doing here.” you answered vaguely.
“Always so clever.” he chuckled, shaking his head.
You two danced for a while. It felt like your heart was going to burst out of your chest and give you away if you didn't do anything soon.
“Everything all right?” Bruno asked.
You smiled. “Mhm. Just fine.”
“It’s getting crowded in here,” he whispered in your ear. “Let’s take this to the garden.”
Now you knew that he had figured out something. You were screwed if you followed him, but you were even more screwed if you didn’t. You let him lead you to the garden and tried to keep some sanity. It was a simple job. It was the least you could do.
It was cold out. But the kind of cold that you enjoy after time in the beating sun. A chill ran down your spine, but you didn't mind it.
Bruno sat on a bench next to some daisies and patted the open spot next to him. You sat next to him and looked up at the stars and moon. Now or never.
“Who’s paying you to kill me?” Bruno asked.
You weren’t shocked.
“Can't tell you.” you said.
He hummed in response. “I see. Well, are you going to do it?”
You looked over at him and chuckled. “No, I don’t think so.”
“No? Don't tell me you’re going soft.”
You slowly took the knife out and twirled it in your hand. “Not soft. I just think I brought the wrong weapon.”
Bruno laughed and leaned back on the bench. “Some other time then?”
You looked at the knife. “Yeah. Some other time.”
You turned to pull the knife out on him, to actually get the job done, but Bruno planted a quick kiss on your cheek and disappeared.
That knife wouldn’t have been of much help anyway.
Strangely, you longed for the next meeting with Bruno. To perhaps actually get the job done with a better weapon and a long dance.

🎄 All I Want For Christmas Is Snow 🎄
Tumblr media
Surprise, @emeriethevalkyriegirl! I’m your Secret Santa! had a lot of fun writing this so I hope you enjoy ❤️ thanks for putting together an amazing event as usual @acotargiftexchange and happy holidays to all who celebrate !!
Summary: Nesta and Cassian’s daughter has never seen snow, so they conspire to give their baby girl her first white Christmas.
Word Count: 4,875
❅❅❅❅❅ Cassian
“Daddy?”
Cassian turned from where he was picking out a book for bedtime to look at his daughter. Seraphina – Sera for short, as she’d been insisting for a while now – looked absolutely adorable in a pair of purple pajamas. She’d just turned five not too long ago and he was so, so thankful she still enjoyed getting a bedtime story and a kiss on the forehead.
“Yes, mijita?” Cassian answered, grabbing one of the My Little Pony books off Sera’s shelf before coming to settle next to her on her tiny bed. “What’s going on in that cute little head?”
“Is snow real?” she asked abruptly. Her hazel eyes had taken on that determined look that meant she wasn’t going to bed anytime soon until she got her question answered.
“Of course it is,” he answered. It struck him sometimes how little she knew about the world, and just how much he and Nesta had left to show her before she grew up. “It just hasn’t snowed here in a long, long time. Not since before you were born.”
“Why not?” she followed up immediately. “I wanna see some.”
“One day, baby,” Cassian promised vaguely. He couldn’t predict the weather any more than the average guy, but he didn’t want to completely dash all her hopes. “The weather hasn’t been good for it yet.”
“When’s it gonna get good, Daddy?” Sera asked with a sigh she’d definitely gotten from her mother. He’d never get tired of seeing a quintessential Nesta expression on their daughter’s face, so he just reached out and smoothed some of her dark hair back to do something with the warmth of affection that spread through him.
“I don’t know,” he told her honestly. They hadn’t gotten good snow in DC for years – certainly not enough for Sera to enjoy it like a child deserved, anyway – and although the weather prediction said they were in for some real snow this year, who knew if that would actually be true. “But the weather people say maybe we’ll get some snow this year. Isn’t that exciting?”
“If you say so, Daddy,” she replied, clearly not believing him but deciding to go along with it anyway. “Can you read my story now?”
Keep reading on AO3 here!

One Shot For Pondhue Rick Sanchez x Reader Fluff
I hope this doesn't format weird, but I've been doing one shot fanfic for art trades, this is my first finished one! If you're interested go ahead and dm me but I've got lots to tackle.
I love @pondhue's art, be sure to check them out, this is what they requested, enjoy :)
“Summer!” Morty yelled up the stairs in an exasperated voice. Both his hands are clenched on the straps of his backpack. “I-I’m gonna be late for math, Mom said we have to walk together this time.”
You were cross legged on the recliner as you watched her bound down the stairs with a pink zippered pouch in hand. 
“Don’t act like you give a shit about your education Morty, it’s not a good look for you.” She rolls her eyes in his direction and hands you the pouch. “You can use anything but Funny Bunny and the glitters. See you tonight!”  She was out the door before you could even say thank you. 
“She’s fuckin’ killing me, y/n.” Morty gave a frustrated huff. The door slams shut and you stifle a laugh.
You almost slide off of the recliner in favor of the floor, then go through Summer’s nail stuff. The polish bottles all clink against one another gently. 
It was empty and quiet. The Beths and Jerry had said something about a galactic honeymoon before being cut off by disgusted groans from Rick and the kids. It was an easy job to take.
You turn on the TV for some background noise, and decide to pick your favorite color.  
House sitting seemed unnecessary for the Smiths, but it would be nice to be around Rick more in light of your recent “exclusivity.” Rick’s chosen word, not yours. It was kinda sweet, you supposed.
You start with your left hand, laying it flat on the coffee table. It was fun, and soothing. 
Exclusive was a nice term, you think. Not too distant, or too territorial. He respected you.
You were starting another finger when you heard the familiar warp of a portal materializing in the kitchen. 
God, Rick was noisy. Every box and bottle in the fridge resounded as if he were taking inventory, he hacked and coughed every few seconds. Was he aware that you were here? Was he trying to make a point, like you had to acknowledge his presence first?
You continue without a word. Maybe you could do your toes too? Should you match, or pick another color?
Your mouth twitched as you saw him from the corner of your eye. He plopped himself down on the couch, adjacent to your spot on the floor, with a drink in his hand. He burps and changes the channel. 
There was a comfortable silence, only the noise of different shows and commercials, human looking humans, nothing you’d usually see on interdimensional cable with him. 
Rick drapes his arm on the back of the couch. “Y-you gonna join me?”
“In a little bit, I’m almost done,” you said.
He grunts in reply.
Why was he being so quiet, almost shy?
You finished your last finger, waving them around a little to dry. You look back up at the TV, and literal shit is being spread on a bagel. 
“Jesus,” you automatically cringe and turn to Rick, “Why?”
“Poop deli,” he shrugs and takes a big swig of beer.
“That.. Is not–romantic,” you said.
He snorts but changes the channel anyway. “I didn’t realize you needed wooing right now, sweetheart.” He rubs the back of his neck.
“Who said I needed it?” You say incredulously, flapping your hands to dry your nails faster. You know you looked silly and laughed a little as soon as you started.
“‘S a good color on you,” Rick almost mumbles, vaguely gesturing to the little set up of polish and remover, and all the other contents of Summer’s pouch on the coffee table. 
“Thank you.” You slide the nail stuff across the table and sit on the carpet next to Rick’s foot. “Maybe you could join me?”
“On the floor?” Rick’s voice almost reflected your own earlier regarding ‘poop deli.’
“It won’t kill you,” you said. “I was hoping I could do your nails too?” You almost didn’t ask, but you were curious. Sure, Rick usually gave most things shit, but you’d like to think you were his soft spot. 
“And what are you thinking, exactly?” He squints at you almost mockingly. He lowers himself smoothly onto the floor next to you.
“How about…” Your hand hovers over a few different bottles in Summers collection. “Lincoln Park After Park,” you said and handed him the bottle. 
“I’m—eughhh–’m not wearing purple.” He said flatly. He places it on the table and takes another swig of beer. 
“It’s basically black,” you scoffed. “I think it’s pretty. You’re lucky I don’t want to do the whole damn nail routine on you. I’m sure your cuticles are atrocious.”
Rick exhaled sharply through his nose, and rolled his eyes dramatically and splayed his large, bony hands out on the coffee table. “Before I change my mind.” 
You smile with satisfaction and scoot closer to him, going from sitting to kneeling. Tall bastard. You almost get poked by his knee as he crouches in an almost frog-like position, you laugh at the look on his face as you untwist the bottle. You give him a quick kiss on the cheek right before he starts complaining.
“That is a purple tinge,” he insists, emphasizing the color. 
“It’s black,” you set the bottle on the table and grab his hand. You start on his pinky finger, feeling the rough skin of his palm. “It’s not permanent, don’t be a child.”
“I’m aware of the properties of Earth nail polish,” he uses his free hand to take a swig of his beer, which almost spilled all over the carpet. “Forgive me for being a little more s–eughh-selective.”
“Earth nail polish?” You laugh. “So there’s alien versions, you mean?”
“Obviously. More durable and vibrant iterations of this shit. Think of that blackest black bullshit, but better. And it doesn’t stink. Just an obvious superiority of the wonders of the galaxy over puny mundane humanity.” His lab coat collar was wonky and he didn’t sound too serious about the last part.
“Mhm,” you said as you spaced his pinky away and moved onto his ring finger, careful not to smudge your own. “And how’d you get so familiar with galactic cosmetics?” He shrugged. “Old band days. I’ve told you about this before,” his eyebrow furrowed.
You could see a little bit of the purple tint as you finished another nail. 
“Drunken rants barely count as telling me,” you said. “The Flesh Curtains,” you said with a flourishing stroke.
“Th-this, it’s the first time since then I’ve gotten my nails painted,” he said, a little surprised at himself. “Bit of bird DMT and common sense is m-euguhghh-more than enough to overcome, fuckin gender societal bullshit.” He was watching your hands, one painting, the other keeping his still. “If you paint it all over the fingertip it’ll come off in the shower. Don’t exactly shower much at Birding Man, though.”
“That’s where you guys met, right?” You asked.
“Mhm,” Rick said. “Thirty somethin’ and didn’t give much of a fuck to do shit else. Just shows and drugs and all the usual rockstar bullshit. I was young. BP gave me a guitar and we were too shitfaced to stop ourselves.”
“Bird Person doesn’t seem the musical type,” you say as you take his other hand and dip the brush into the bottle of polish. “That’s pretty cool.”
“He’s a fuckin’ genius.” He waves his free hand. “Bird planet stuff gave him a natural advantage, I think. Heavy into classical. Would’ve been a w–eughhh–waste, -i-if he never did anything with it.”
“So what kind of music did you make?” You asked, smiling. You were trying not to seem too enthusiastic. You didn’t think he’d be so willing to open up. 
“Eughh–it was the eighties, I think, don’t fuckin’ remember too much. Rock, nu metal. For a bit we used an invention of mine with an algorithm that c-cal-calibrated the data from other successful rock acts across the known universe to write songs for us, bullshit like that. Didn’t work out. BP almost got us to do new-wave, n-eughh-not my cup of tea.” He takes his flask from his lab coat pocket. 
“Squanchy didn’t want that either. Too hyperactive. We found him squanchin’ backstage by the drumkit when we wanted to crash the festival, so that role for him happened naturally. I don’t think you’ve met him. When we were on the road I’d have to sing him to sleep while I drove cuz BP would just pass out. If Squanchy didn’t get a goddamn lullaby he’d have to squanch to go to bed, and that was when I actually gave a shit if my ship was clean..”
“I advise you to restrain your speed. Breaking Blimmyjink highway laws will further delay our performance,” Bird Person said in his monotone voice.
“I swear to fucking god, I’ll eject you into the vast emptiness of space if you spill that goddamn beer!” Rick yelled over his shoulder while keeping his eyes on the road. He coughed and hacked before narrowly swerving around another vehicle. 
They worked real hard to get a gig at the Celestes, and he wasn’t going to let shit ruin it. Rick growled a little as he forced himself to ease up on the gas pedal. 
“I didn’t spill squanch!” Squanchy whined.
“Should’ve brought my damn portal gun, you stupid fucks,” he barked at the other members in the car. “U—eughh-unbelievable.”  Rick had thought that a road trip-esque approach to a few of their gigs would create some type of positive relationship without too many drugs involved.
The galactic highway had too much traffic for a Thursday night, they had a shit time slot. He weaved in and out of lines of other ships and cars, speeding to get to the venue. His glass beer bottle nearly tipped over in the cup holder, before his bandmate caught it with a feathered hand.
“You’re in distress,” BP observed. 
“You deserve a medal,” Rick muttered.
“What seems to be the issue?” Bird Person persisted. 
“We need time t-to set up. No fuckin’ brainer. Even with the damn Band in a Box mechanism every .5 seconds counts in this GODDAMN TRAFFIC!” Rick yelled and honked his horn. 
The driver in front of him extended a tentacle out of their window.
“Is he flipping me off?” Rick asked, glancing at his cat-like drummer in the back seat. 
“Nah, he’s just giving you the squanch. Could be way worse, Rick.” Squanchy replied before chugging the rest of his drink, his feet kicked up on the drivers seat.
“Paws down asshole, you’ll sing yourself to sleep tonight,” Rick said through gritted teeth.
“Your voice is slightly hoarser than usual.” Bird Person said. “Perhaps your agitated state is creating strain on your physical health.”
“Only by 20.8%, which literally d-eughh-doesn’t matter,” Rick quipped. “This is a really important show, you know that.”
BP rifled through his satchel made of leaves and other stupid shit Rick didn’t see the point in before. He pulled out an unusually large acorn. 
“It is infused with healing syrups and herbs from my home planet. I insist.” He handed it to him when they slowed to a stop at a light. “It may soothe you.”
“What-am-am I supposed to eat this like an apple?” Rick's eyebrow arched before glancing back at the road.
“If by apple you imply a hand sized, edible food source–”
“Whatever,” Rick grumbled and took the acorn begrudgingly.
“Thank you for giving me your trust,” his bandmate replied.
The show at the Celestes had been a hit. It helped them book other gigs–turns out there were some good connections to make on a random Thursday night. Rick wasn’t on vocals that show, but he felt a lot better. He got so drunk that he crowd surfed and shit his pants in a broom closet. 
“We ended up having a p-pretty decent sized fan base on Blimmyjink even after we disbanded. Pers didn’t neutralize any of the tannins in that acorn, though,” Rick said with a laugh. “Tasted like shit.”
You were almost done with his second hand, almost wishing you could stall so he wouldn’t stop talking.
It was really nice of him to speak more about his past, considering Rick wasn’t very comfortable with his backstory, or a lot of what happened before he and Morty moved to this dimension. You could tell he was really trying. 
“That seems really fun. It would be nice to meet Squanchy sometime.” You put away the polish and rubbed his shoulder. “I didn’t realize you and BP had been so close. He doesn’t seem like the type to paint his nails.”
Rick scoffs. “Yeah, no thanks to me. They wanted to be lame and go onstage as they were, like f-fuckin’ Weezer or something. It was fun styling everyone. I had pierced ears back then too, we were so fuckin’ drunk–shit was lopsided.” 
He rolled his eyes and pressed a button on his watch, careful not to smudge his nail. 
A little holo projection appeared of an old picture you’d seen before. Rick, Bird Person, and Squanchy on stage. Fire effects erupting by the drumset, Bird Person with his wings displayed powerfully behind him, Rick lost in thought as his face contorted while striking the strings of his instrument. 
“Wow, yeah. You guys look amazing,” you try not to giggle a little at Rick’s get up. You hadn’t seen it in detail like this before— spiked leather bracelets, a skull on his belt buckle, the loosest, skinniest tank top that was as far away from his chest as possible, and a choker around his neck. Jesus Christ. What a choice, what a man.
“Clearly I was the o-eughh-only one that actually looked good,” Rick said with a wink. “But it was some good shit. We never made any money doing it. But we had some good memories.”
Rick's hands were both free as the nails dried, so he used them more as he talked. “That time in my life w-was a goddamn free for all. I trusted BP for no good reason when I’d been bitter and angry for years. We all almost wrote a whole album that night, after Birding Man, but Squanchy drunk pissed all over my equipment and we lost the files.”
“And drunk Rick didn’t waterproof his stuff back then?” You ask dubiously. 
“I–eughh–I think I can say I was a lesser man back then.” He said with a shrug.
“Do you miss it?” You ask.
“Loose shirts, shittier tech, different mindset back then. I don’t regret it, but I was...just running from a lot of shit. It was escapism. Every musician is disturbed, art is mental illness, whatever bullshit you wanna . I-I think I needed it.” He said fondly. “I’m a little less likely to do donuts in a Blimmyjink parking lot these days.”
The TV hums quietly in the background and you take in the natural pause. 
You take his hand cautiously, admiring the fit of yours with his, the new polish on your nails. “Thank you for giving me your trust.”
He brings his palm to your cheek and kisses your forehead.

chrome is my fav but I like seeing my favs suffer a bit so 🤭 can I request an angsty to fluff one-shot (or whichever format you prefer) with chrome and a childhood friend gn!reader? (friends with feeling for each other teehee!!!) smth like reader goes missing during a mission on earth and a year later reader is found as a construct and brought back to Babylonia? emotional reunion with chrome and everything 😭🫶🏻
chrome makes me explode!!!! he has no business being so romantic.
Thank you! I adore your blog and I hope to see it grow in the future!! <3
hi anon, thanks so much you're so sweet !! i totally get you tho ... i loooove making my favs suffer teehee it's so fun ... i also really like this prompt i love love love angst to fluff !! fun fact, i actually have a wanshi smooching oc with a similar backstory !! great minds think alike (〃´𓎟`〃)
i wrote mooostly from chrome's pov since the reader got yoinked so i hope it's alright that they don't have Too much involvement, but all that aside i hope you enjoy!!
here i am (following your steps).
content warnings: implications of/vague allusions to death (you get better though)
Tumblr media
When CHROME takes the mission report into his hands, he feels like the world has been pulled out from under his feet.
Your squadmates' faces were similarly grim — downcast eyes, lips pressed into thin lines — and no matter how hard he wanted to, he couldn't deny the truth of the matter, relayed to him in your captain's trembling apologies and Babylonia's standard typewritten font.
Your name, your rank, reported missing in action.
Chrome keeps his face carefully blank as he reads the rest of it over. Maybe he should have been there with you, he thinks. Maybe if you had one more person with you, then your squad wouldn't have had to split up, and you wouldn't have had to go alone, and —
"Thank you for letting me know," he says, a mask of fake reservation, and then he turns to leave.
There are pictures of you and him that you put up in his sleeping pod that he can't bring himself to take down, unopened gift boxes piled on top of the desk in the Strike Hawk lounge addressed to him. He thinks about how he wanted to straighten your jacket one more time before you swatted his hand away, and he wonders what you would say if he asked if you would still want to spend the rest of your life with him, like you believed you would growing up. You would always stay over for dinner, anyway, and his father already likes you — what's one more night, and one more, and one more?
It's a foolish, childish notion, but still the thought of it, the empty, gaping hole where you had once stood beside him, haunts him so.
Chrome sets the mission report face-down.
Tumblr media
Time without you passes slowly. After each mission Chrome spends another hour searching for you, and after each mission he returns to Babylonia without even finding the slighest trace of you. Not a torn piece of your coat, your pistol, your remains — nothing to officially pronounce you dead, and precious little else to remember you by.
Sometimes, he catches himself checking in on the private comms channel he set up for the two of you. Today, too, he finds himself listening to the silence that your voice used to fill, casting his gaze off to the horizon, past devastated streets and ruined buildings —
— And then he catches a flash of something in the distance that almost eerily reminds him of you.
He doesn't waste a single moment before he gives chase, your silhouette that he was so used to seeing growing clearer and clearer with each step. Even though he might just be deluding himself, he needs to see with his own eyes that it's not you to believe it.
The silhouette turns at the sound of his footsteps and at the sight of your face, the world is pulled out from under him again.
"...Chrome?"
(How long has it been since he last heard your voice?)
"It's you," he says softly, falling from his lips like the answer to a prayer that even he can't quite believe. "...You're here."
The words bring a smile to your face — soft and bright and oh-so-familiar — and he reaches out for your hand, sliding down to hold your wrist. His fingers press against where he might feel your pulse but it's still, silent, cold, with only the same subtle thrum of electricity that sits beneath his own synthetic skin.
"I'm here," you echo, and for just a moment he sets aside all the questions running through his head.
Chrome takes another look at you, at your new metal body, at the same face he had seen every day growing up and seen in his dreams every night since you disappeared. He straightens your jacket and lets his hand rest on your shoulder for one moment, then two, waiting for you to swat his hand away.
"Chrome," you say, placing your hand over his. "Can I stay over for dinner?"
The question draws a surprised noise out of his throat, and his expression slowly melts into a smile.
"Always," he replies. "...And for however long you want to stay afterwards."

...
The clock on the wall reads six o’clock, and you can’t help the smile on your face as you know your favourite customers are about to come through the doors.
It’s almost like clockwork at this point; every Friday night after they’re done work for the week, a group of young aviators you’ve become very well acquainted with comes to the Hard Deck to relax, hang out, and get drunk. There’s quite a few of them, too; on days when they can all make it, they number thirteen–though their thirteenth member usually spends his time sitting at the bar and making moon eyes at Penny while she laughs at his terrible jokes. But they usually come in a group of six, sometimes eight, depending on deployments and detachments and things that they explained to you when you’d asked, once, back when you first met them.
The music from the jukebox, which you can vaguely recognize as Kenny Loggins, is playing through the Hard Deck, loud enough to enjoy but not so loud that you couldn’t hear yourself think, or hear anyone else who might try to talk to you. The Hard Deck is still pretty empty, just a few people sitting at the bar or having gotten drinks and taken them to a table.
However, when you hear the door open, you look over and you don’t see the normal group of aviators you’ve come to expect. No, the only person walking in is Lieutenant Robert Floyd, also known as Bob. He’s the sweetest and the quietest of the group, but one you’d find yourself looking out for, singling out among the group to talk to when you brought them drinks or when you spoke to them when they came over to the bar top. He was also pretty easy on the eyes, you’d be happy to admit, and today was no exception. He’s wearing a tight fitting white t-shirt, tighter than he normally wears, and tight jeans with some light brown leather boots. He’s got a baseball hat on his head, though he’s quick to take it off as he approaches where you’re standing behind the bar.
“Good evening, ma’am,” he greets you, ducking his head slightly. He’s always been polite, almost too polite, but it was endearing coming from him. You think so, anyway. His big, sweet-looking blue eyes shine behind his glasses, and you can’t help but lean forward on the bar towards him.
“Good evening, Lieutenant Floyd,” you greet him, and he ducks his head again. You look around, between the tables, the pool tables in the back, and the front door. It’s more than a little unusual to see him on his own; you don’t think you’ve ever seen him at the Hard Deck without at least two or three of the other aviators. “Is it just you tonight?”
“Oh, uh, no, everyone else is coming by later,” he explains, still clutching his baseball hat in one hand. He shrugs with one shoulder. “We were supposed to meet here at seven, but I didn’t get the message until I was already in the parking lot here. And with traffic, if I went back home and came back here I’d really just be driving for an hour, so…” His voice trails off, and he looks around. It’s unusually quiet for a Friday, even this early in the day, and there are only four or five other people besides you and Bob and Penny, who’s talking with someone else at the other end of the bar top. There’s plenty of open tables in the Hard Deck, and none of the pool tables are being used, but it wouldn’t be much fun for him to play by himself. So you decide to be bold.
“Well, there’s plenty of seats available at the bar, if you’d like some company while you wait.” You try to be as nonchalant as possible as you wait for his answer. His eyebrows raise and his mouth opens just a bit in surprise, but then he’s blinking and nodding his head.
“I’d like that very much, ma’am,” he says, nodding once again as he politely addresses you. It’s very sweet, but you put a hand on your hip and shake your head.
“You can call me by my name, if you’d like.”
“Only if you call me by mine.” You’re not expecting him to retort so quickly, but it’s definitely not unwelcome.
“Deal.” You smile at him as you grab a clean glass and start filling it up with his usual drink of choice, a club soda with lemonade. You slide it across the bar to him before starting a tab for him on the register behind the bartop. You also grab him a fresh plastic cup filled with peanuts, holding it out for him to take as well. A faint pink flush spreads over his cheeks as he takes that too, his hand brushing yours.
As your skin makes contact with his, you see the pink flush deepens into a rosy red colour, spreading across his cheeks and down his neck. His glasses slip down his nose just a bit, and you feel yourself melt inside, just a bit, at how shy he is, and you just stand there and look at each other for a moment before laughter from behind you breaks the spell. Bob clears his throat, sitting down on the closest stool and putting his hat back on his head. He pushes his glasses back up the bridge of his nose while you grab a cleaning rag and start wiping down the area around where he’s sitting. You start talking to him, asking about his day, and the two of you slip into conversation from there.
He’s so easy to talk to; he keeps his eyes on you the entire time you talk, nodding along and laughing at the appropriate times. Not fake laughs, either; his laugh is like a guffaw, which you hadn’t thought was real until you heard him laugh, and you love the sound of it. You find yourself confiding in him, telling him about your week, about the latest drama with your friends, about everything and nothing and anything in-between. You do get other customers who come up for drinks, and regulars who come by to say hello, and you serve them in between topics of conversation with Bob. He also tells you about his day, about the ups and downs of flying multi-million dollar planes, and about how if he has to do any more push-ups because of Hangman and Rooster’s eternal pissing contest, he’s gonna lose it (well, okay, those aren’t the exact words that Bob uses, but if he wasn’t so polite you’re sure he’d word it like that).
But before you know it, nearly an hour has gone by since Bob first walked into the Hard Deck and sat down with you. And while he’s watching you with a smile on his face, you know you’ve been going on and on for most of it. Which is a little embarrassing, but it was just so easy. “Oh my god, I’m so sorry! I’ve been talking your ear off this whole time,” you tell him, feeling your cheeks warm at the thought. Hopefully you haven’t been boring him.
“Don’t apologize. I liked it.” Bob is quick to offer you reassurance, almost as if he can read your mind. He adjusts the hat on his head, and his fingers sweep some loose golden blond hair up under the navy cap. You can’t help but watch, wondering if his hair is as soft as it looks. You’d bet it is. “I like the sound of your voice. It’s nice to listen to.”
You’re not quite sure if he’s flirting with you or genuinely that kind. It might be a mix of both. But it gives you some relief, and the two of you chat for a few more minutes before you hear Penny call out a greeting from behind you. You look towards the door to see that the rest of Bob’s usual company is walking in now. As usual, Pete makes a beeline for the bar top to say hello and shamelessly flirt with his girlfriend, while the others go off to claim a pool table and some seats nearby.
Bradley looks in your direction, very noticeable in a bright green and yellow Hawaiian shirt and ripped jeans, and then he nudges Natasha to look over at you as well. There’s a big grin growing from under his mustache and he does so, which isn’t too far from normal for him, but as he waves to you and Bob before grabbing a pool table, you can’t help but wonder if he’s behind the hour delay tonight. No, it couldn’t be. Bradley’s not sneaky enough to do anything like that.
But now that they’re here, you know that Bob is going to go and join them; that’s what he’s here for, after all, not to sit with you and let you talk his ear off all night. Not that you’d mind his company, though. You honestly would gladly give him this spot permanently, just to hear his laugh and see his pretty blue eyes behind the glasses that you were finding more and more attractive on him as the night progressed.
So you decide to do something bold, wanting to keep talking to him. You grab him a clean glass and, while he’s busy looking over and waving at the others, you grab a napkin and a pen from your apron to scrawl your name and number down. You fill the glass with club soda and lemonade, and place it in front of him with the napkin when he turns back around to look at you. He reaches into his pocket, presumably for his wallet, but you shake your head.
“Your drinks are on me tonight. As a thank you for being such good company,” you tell him, and once again his knuckles brush yours as he takes the drink and napkin from you. He thanks you, his voice soft, as he turns and heads over to where his friends and co-workers have gathered. He greets Natasha first, putting his drink down on the table she’s leaning against, and talking to her. Some of the others approach the bar top and you fetch them the drinks they request, making small talk for a few minutes before they head back towards the pool tables.
Bob and Natasha are still talking when you look back at them and he’s since grabbed a pool cue to play, but you see her look at his drink and the napkin you’d given Bob with it. She points at it, saying something you can’t hear. Bob walks back over to the table to look at it, while she takes his pool cue and starts playing against Jake.
You see Bob look down at the napkin, and then he’s pushing his glasses further up his nose and pinking it up to bring it closer to his face. Then he looks up and his big blue eyes meet yours from across the bar. He points at the napkin, and then at his face. His eyebrows are furrowed, and he’s got a tightlipped, nervous smile on his face. You nod, and you can’t help the giggles that come out as his entire face lights up, his smile becoming more relaxed and you can see the pink flush that spreads across his cheeks under the warm orange glow coming in from the big windows in the back of the bar near the pool tables.
(And when you get a text message later on from an unknown number, one that identifies themselves as Lieutenant Robert Floyd who hopes he entered in the right number and is looking forward to speaking with you again, you can’t help but hope that next week the others get delayed as well)

I just found your account and I love your writing so far, it's nice to have a slasher headcanon account that's sfw
Anyway I wanna request the reader getting comforted after having a meltdown due to stress(I'm not sure how else to word it)
I was hoping for Ash Williams, Billy Loomis and Chop Top if possible
Thank you and sorry if I wrote anything weird I'm still kinda anxious sending asks to people
Hey! Yeah, I agree. There isn’t enough sfw accounts anymore for slashers. Also, this was a great ask! I could get pretty creative because of how vague your ask was. I hope you enjoy a little bit of my creative scenarios with the characters you picked. 🤗
Ash Williams
The most likely time you’ll get stressed out with him is when you guys are fighting deadites. There’s so many of them that it leaves you exhausted, physically and mentally; however, you don’t want to turn into one so you don’t have a choice. 
When you and Ash found a resting place, you sat down immediately. The exhaustion took over your whole body and your mind was racing; all you could think about was ways to keep you and Ash from getting killed. Nevertheless, Ash was never any help easing that stress; he was always an out-there kinda person, getting into trouble and fighting these beasts for his own enjoyment. 
Ash stopped his glory rant when he heard your breathing become uneven: he could see how stressed you were about the whole situation. No matter how much he loved fighting deadites and bragging about how amazing he was, he loved you even more and he’d stop all this heroic business if you asked him to. Just say the word and it’s over. 
He walked over and sat down next to you. He put his hand on your back and rubbed circles into it, attempting to calm you down. He whispered words of comfort. Even though he finds deadite killing fun, there was one time in his life he didn’t. It had overwhelmed him. After all, he had to kill the people he loved just to survive so he understands. 
Ash keeps watch while you rest. He doesn’t want you to burn out, but he cares too much about you to let what happened to his other loved ones happen to you. Once you are all rested up, it’ll be time to hit the road and fight deadites again.
Billy Loomis
You’re the smartest kid at school; you care a lot about your grades and getting into a good college. Then there is Billy: a party animal who gives zero fucks about grades. He doesn’t know how the hell you guys started dating because of how much of a polar opposite you guys are, but here you are. 
It was senior year and you were trying to get yourself into college while preparing for exams: you had several essays to write and study books to look over. You were extremely stressed out. Well, apparently Billy can sense when you're stressed because here he comes through your window!
Billy teases you tremendously about how you only care about school work and that you need to get out more. Maybe if you lived a little, you won’t get so stressed out all the time. Don’t listen to Billy, he just wants you to come party at Stu’s house. If you want to study and get into that D1 college, then you go!
Once Billy stops teasing you, he, for real, shuts your study books in front of your face and makes you lay on your bed. You need a break. Seriously, you're mentally draining yourself so chill. He’ll turn on your favorite movie and make you some popcorn.
Billy will cuddle you until you fall asleep. Then he’ll get up and make sure everything is neat and tighty. He’ll leave your movie on so you have a little background noise; also, so you don’t hear him leave. He doesn’t want to startle you. He gives you a kiss on your forehead and leaves out where he came in.
Choptop Sawyer
It’s not just anything that stresses you out, it’s Choptop. He’s your stressor. This man will literally give you gray hairs: just look at Drayton’s hair. Poor Drayton will probably die from a stroke caused by no other than Choptop and Nubbins.  
Anyways, yeah. Don’t think that Choptop doesn’t know he’s causing you stress because he definitely does. He’s just doing it on purpose because he’s a little shit like that. However, he actually knows his limits surprisingly. 
If you tell him you need alone time away from him, he completely understands or he’ll try to be less of a shit head. He’ll offer you a massage or some food, anything that you want. He wants to show you that he cares and his appreciation for putting up with him. He knows it’s a lot. 
He’ll tell you jokes; his jokes are so bad that they're good. He gets you laughing every single time. Jokes are a great way to get someone to show their carefree side. You and him will tell jokes back and forth all afternoon long, forgetting about the stresses of the day and Choptop. 
Choptop will pull out his record player and play some of his favorite stolen records. They help him relax so he hopes they help you relax too. Bonus if you guys end up dancing in the living room and get the whole family to join too.

Jin x reader
Word count: 4.4k
Blind Date(s): Intro
Main Masterlist
A/N: What up! Jin is the first one up for my Blind Date(s) mini series! This fic is a LOT of dialog because there's really not much to cooking so... Btw if you're curious about how Jin's ziti would taste, it's like Olive Garden's baked ziti, but WAY better because it's Kim Seokjin. Also thanks to @maple-leaves-in-the-wind for helping me come up with the overall plot of this fic! Anyway... I hope you enjoy!
While we were bickering about the topic, the sound of the doorbell stopped us dead in our tracks. I looked at her and then at the door and back at her before I huffed, standing up to open the door.
“We are not done with this conversation,” I told her once I reached the door.
Still a bit upset with Hari, I might have opened the door a little too aggressively, actively scaring the person on the other side who happened to be none other than the person we were just discussing about.
I was taken aback by his presence, but that didn’t last long as I felt a hand land on my shoulder.
“Oh, I think we’re done with this conversation,” Hari whispered in my ear.
I looked over at her angrily and was about to tell her off when Jin spoke.
“Is this a bad time, because I can come back later if you want?”
“Yes.”
“No.”
Hari and I spoke at the same time.
“Would you give us a minute,” Hari asked while she shut the door before he could give his answer.
“Why is he here,” I whisper shouted, not wanting him to hear the mess that was going on on this side of the door.
“He’s here for your date,” she whispered back.
I shook my head, “No. No! Tell him to reschedule or you go on the date because I’m not doing it.”
“Can’t. This was the only day that worked for him and it’s also under your name so…”
I sighed as I started to walk away.
“Y/n, where are you going?”
“To my room. Tell him that I suddenly felt unwell or something,” I waved her off.
She took my wrist in her hand and spun me around before I could walk any further into the house.
“Y/n/n, I would be damned if I let you walk away from this fine looking man.”
She tugged on my arm making me move in front of the door as she placed her hands on my shoulders.
“Dude, nobody is expecting anything to come out of this. This isn’t even a real, high-stakes, date, okay? This is just you hanging out with a really good looking guy,” she insisted.
“Yeah, good looking and famous,” I muttered under my breath.
She smiled.
“Exactly! So just hang out with him for the day and you won’t have to do this ever again, okay?”
I nodded and sighed out a tiny breath.
“Fine. So, what are we doing today,” I asked, finally curious on what she planned.
“You both are going to have dinner here.”
“WHAT?!”
She manically laughed as she opened the door and shouted “Have fun” as she all but ran down the hall.
“Hari! Hari, come back here,” I shouted after her, but they fell on deaf ears as she continued to run away.
I huffed as I watched her round the corner and away from my line of sight.
“I’m guessing she sprung this on you, huh?”
I turned my head to find Jin still standing in front of my door. I rolled my eyes at Hari’s antics.
“I should be used to this with how often she does it, but nope. How long have you known about this anyway,” I asked, vaguely gesturing to the date.
He hummed in thought.
“Well, we were told about the winning bid a few days after the auction was over and we’ve been communicating with your friend, Hari, for a while… so I’ll say about a month, at least.”
“Of course…”
Hari was always the person you could count on for surprises. Which were usually a good thing if you wanted a surprise birthday or some other special occasion, but other times when she decided to leave details until the very last minute, like right now, they were a little less of a good thing.
While lost in thought I saw that he was holding a bag which brought me back to reality.
“Oh, I totally forgot my manners! Please come in,” I said, gesturing for him to come inside.
He gave me a polite smile and a small bow before walking inside.
“You can set your bag on the kitchen island,” I pointed.
“You can put your coat anywhere you’d like. And you’ll have to excuse the mess, I was just told about this date, like 25 minutes ago.”
He chuckled as I started to dart around in order to quickly tidy up a little bit.
“No worries! Your place is still cleaner than mine, so I don’t mind it being a little “messy”.”
I gave him a grateful smile as I slowed down on tidying up. I went to the kitchen when I remembered what Hari told me.
“Oh right! Hari said that we’re supposed to have dinner here, but I don’t have anything prepared, so are you okay with takeout,” I asked, picking up the glasses Hari and I had left on the table when Jin showed up.
He shook his head as he started to dig around in his bag, “Don’t worry about that. I’ll be making dinner.”
“Huh?”
Did I hear him right? Kim Seokjin is going to make dinner?
“Mhmm,” he nodded.
That didn’t answer anything as I was still confused and by the way he chuckled when he looked at me, I knew that my face was showing it.
"Your friend, Hari, right?”
I hummed in confirmation.
“Had donated a lot of money for this date and because of that, she was allowed to pick what the activity was for the date.”
I nodded along as I took in the information he was telling me while taking ingredients out of the bag.
He continued, “Of course it had to be within certain guidelines, but when she suggested eating out as a date I was quick to start asking questions.”
“What kind of questions? Were you skeptical or something,” I asked, raising an eyebrow.
He chuckled, “No, nothing like that. More along the lines of if she had any allergies and what her preferred meal was, stuff like that.”
“Makes sense,” I shrugged, “some people have texture things or things they don’t like.”
“Right. So she said that Italian was the best bet when it came to a meal and also that you would prefer a home cooked meal.”
I hummed.
“That’s true, mainly because there aren’t that many Italian restaurants in a decent radius so I prefer to make it at home.”
Then a question popped in my head, “Wait, you said that she told you that I like home cooked meals.”
He nodded.
“Didn’t you think it was weird that she was planning this date for someone else?”
He hummed in thought before answering, “Originally, yes. A lot of people wouldn’t give up the chance to go on a date with us, right? So, I was surprised that she was giving it up for you, but I still went along with what she said because of how much she donated. Plus I think I’m a pretty good cook and I haven’t had much time to brush up on my skills, so when she suggested cooking, it was a no-brainer.”
I smiled and gave him a curt nod.
Having set out all of the ingredients while he was speaking, I started looking for some pans that he could use.
“What are we making,’ I asked as I placed some pots and pans on the counter for him to choose between.
He walked up to the counter and started to choose.
“Well, I’m making baked ziti,” he said, taking a pot and adding water in it before placing it on the stove to bring it to a boil.
“Baked ziti?! I haven’t had that in forever,” I exclaimed.
He looked at me and chuckled.
“Well then I made a good choice then, huh?”
I happily nodded as I looked at him. We looked at each other for a moment before I cleared my throat.
“Well, I guess I should start on the food,” he said, grabbing some of the vegetables and placing them next to the cutting board I had set out before I started looking for pans.
I moved over to the island and sat down on one of the stools.
“Are you sure you don’t want me to help because I feel kind of guilty letting you do all of the work.”
“Yeah, I’m fine with doing all the work. Plus you might end up messing with my flow,” he teased.
“You have a flow?”
He shrugged and smiled, “Yeah, don’t all the best cooks have a flow?”
I shrugged, “I wouldn’t know. I haven’t had many dinner dates with the “best” cooks.”
We looked at each other before bursting out into laughter. He turned around and started to wash the vegetables while chuckling.
“I really don’t have a problem with doing all the work, but if you want to help…”
He stopped washing the vegetables and turned to me with his hand on his chin as he hummed in thought.
“You can be my official taste tester!”
“Ooh~ I love that job,” I smiled.
~
Jin started making the sauce after cutting the vegetables and putting in the noodles to boil. It was basically a waiting game until the noodles softened, so we started some light banter. At some point, light banter had turned into an endless game of 20 questions to get to know more about each other.
We were having so much fun listening to each other’s stories, Jin forgot to turn down the heat for the sauce so when it started to bubble it was splashing everywhere.
As he was trying to turn down the heat on the stove some of it splashed on his arm which made him dramatically hold his arm and look between me and the sauce.
I couldn’t contain my laughter and burst into a fit of giggles at his overreaction.
“Are you laughing at my pain,” he dramatically gasped.
“No…” I said between giggles.
“I think you are!”
I calmed down, wiping the tears that escaped from my eyes while sighing.
“It’s not my fault that you dramatically got hurt.”
He huffed.
“I wouldn’t have gotten hurt if you put out a lid to use,” he looked at me accusingly.
“I did. It’s right there,” I said, pointing to the lid sitting to the left of the stove, next to the pan.
He followed where I was pointing and stared at the lid for a moment before uttering a small “oh”.
I broke out into another fit of giggles as he continued to look at the lid.
Once he broke out of his reverie, he checked the noodles and carefully drained the water. He gathered the baking pan along with all the remaining ingredients that were on the island and lined them up before assembling everything in the pan.
“Y/n, is the ricotta over there,” Jin asked, looking over his shoulder at me.
I looked around the table for a package that says “ricotta”, but ultimately found nothing.
“Not on the table. Maybe in your bag,” I suggested.
He nodded to let me know that it was okay to dig through his bag and when I did…
“Nothing.”
He sighed as I looked at him. He turned around to face me.
“You wouldn’t have any ricotta by any chance, would you?”
I shook my head.
“Nope, ricotta cheese is not something I put in my everyday diet.”
He sighed as he thought.
“Okay, well then I’ll head over to the store to get some.”
“No, I can go,” I said, getting up from my seat.
“No, I’ll go. You wouldn’t know which kind I need.”
I crossed my arms, “And you wouldn’t know where the only store that sells ricotta is.”
He mirrored me by crossing his arms and sighed before a smile grew on his lips.
“Sounds like we need each other, so let’s go together.”
I smiled and nodded, “Sounds good! You cover all of that up for when we come back, I’ll grab my jacket and bag, and then we can head out.”
He nodded as I went to get my jacket and bag from the hook next to the door and put them on as he walked over, already in his jacket and scarf.
“Ready?”
He nodded.
I grabbed the keys from my bag and opened the door.
“Alright, let’s go!”
~
“Ta-da,” I cheered as we stepped inside the store.
It was a little grocery store that was tucked away in a downhill alley. Not many people came to this store seeing as it was hidden away and people had to walk for a while to get to it, but what made it interesting was that it sold a lot of items that you usually couldn’t find in a regular convenience store.
I came here once as a last resort for a specific ingredient and lo and behold, they had it so I always made sure to come here first for anything I needed which in time made me a regular to…
“Y/n? Is that you?”
Mrs. Cho, a 76 year old woman who might seem intimidating at first, but is the sweetest lady I’ve ever met.
I smiled as she rounded the corner.
“Mrs. Cho, how have you been,” I asked as she pulled me in for a hug.
“It’s been too long, my dear,” she said as she pulled back and smiled at me.
Then her gaze shifted from me to Jin.
She smirked, “And who is this tall and handsome young man?!”
He chuckled and bowed, “My name is Kim Seokjin, ma’am. It’s nice to meet you.”
Her smile got wider as she looked back at me.
“Handsome AND respectful! You really know how to pick them.”
I blushed as I rolled my eyes and lightly shook my head, “We’re not dating, we’re just here to get something. Speaking of, do you have any ricotta cheese?”
“Ricotta cheese,” she asked as I nodded.
“It should be in fridges at the back, second one from the right.”
She pointed in that direction. I asked Jin if he could go get one, to which he nodded and left. Mrs. Cho pulled me over to the register, where, once behind it, pulled up a chair while I leaned on the counter.
“So… when did this happen?”
“What? Me and Jin,” I asked as I pointed behind me in his general direction.
She nodded.
“It’s a long story, but I promise we are not dating. We literally met today.”
She narrowed her eyes.
“Well something must have happened because there’s something special in the way he looks at you.”
I lightly scoffed, “There’s no way you’re seeing it right and don’t forget that I said that we just met today."
She leaned her elbows on the counter.
“Listen, I may be old, but I’m not blind… yet and I can see that you two have something. Don’t forget of a little thing called “love at first sight”, maybe you two have it,” she smiled.
I was about to argue with the notion, but was stopped short as Jin stopped at the counter, placing the ricotta on the counter. “
Thank you for getting that,” I said.
He nodded.
“Did we need anything else or did you want to get something,” I asked.
He shook his head, “Nope, I think I’m good. Did you want something, though?”
I hummed as I looked around the store finding where my snacks sit, but ultimately decided against it as I shook my head, “Nope, I’ll be okay.”
I pushed the cheese forward on the counter and Mrs. Cho rang it up as I pulled out my wallet. I paid as she put the cheese in a small bag before we started to make our way out. I was about to say bye when something caught my eye.
“I didn’t know you sold flowers,” I said, turning to Mrs. Cho.
She smiled, “I just ordered them. I thought they would brighten up the place.”
I smiled as I looked at them, “They look lovely. Anyway, we’ll be heading out now. Bye, I’ll see you soon!”
I waved at her as she did the same.
“Take care, dear.”
I nodded before Jin and I headed out.
We had walked for a few minutes when Jin suddenly stopped. I continued to walk until I realized that he was no longer by my side, so I stopped and turned around.
“What wrong,” I questioned.
“I forgot to get something. Is it okay if I go back for it?”
I nodded, “Of course! Do you want me to go with you?”
He shook his head while taking a few slow steps back.
“No, it’s okay. I’ll be right back,” he said as he jogged in the direction we just came from.
I sighed as I looked around for a place to sit while I waited for Jin to come back. My eyes landed on a bench a little bit away, near some trees and I decided to walk over to it. I dusted off the thin layer of snow that had collected on the bench before sitting down.
It was lightly snowing and luckily there wasn’t any wind so I wasn’t completely freezing my butt off, and although sitting out in the snow wasn’t exactly ideal, it was peaceful. It was quiet except for the occasional crunch of snow from passersby or children laughing off in the distance.
It wasn’t too long, though, before I saw Jin jog by. I chuckled as I watched him stop abruptly and look around. I stood up and walked over to him.
“I thought I lost you,” he sighed in relief.
I lightly shook my head with a smile, “Nope, still here.”
I looked at the bag in his hands. “What did you get?”
He muttered a small ‘right’ as he reached into the bag and pulled out a bottle.
“I saw this wine as I was walking through the store while you were talking Mrs. Cho and I thought it sounded good and would pair nicely with what we’re having, so I went back to get it.”
I hummed as I looked at the label, Chianti, a rustic Italian red wine.
“You’re quite the wine connoisseur, huh?”
He proudly nodded, “I might have some knowledge.”
I smiled as I looked at the bag and then back at Jin.
“Did you get anything else,” I asked as he put the wine back in the bag and some crunching could be heard.
“I may have also got a few snacks for myself,” he smiled as he avoided eye contact.
I laughed at his silliness. “Okay, let’s get going, Mr. Wine Connoisseur.”
He chuckled as we started to walk back to the apartment.
The only way I could describe the time we spent walking so far would be, peaceful. We weren’t talking, but there was never an uncomfortable air that surrounded us that made us want to break it. It felt nice walking with Jin.
Peaceful.
While walking, I was looking around at the scenery when my gaze fell upon a few kids having fun, making a snowman. I smiled at the sight.
Jin must’ve followed what I was looking at because he stopped and spoke up.
“Y/n.”
I hummed and stopped walking to look at him.
“Where does a snowman get the weather report?”
I closed my eyes and sighed.
“Oh no…”
“The winternet!”
I facepalmed at the joke while he started laughing.I shook my head as I started to walk off.
“Dad jokes? Really.” He nodded while he caught up to me.
“Yep, it’s my speciality!”
I glanced at him, “You seem to have a lot of specialities.”
He shrugged, “What can I say, there’s a lot of things I’m good at.”
I playfully scoffed as he smiled at me.
“Okay, what do you call it when a snowman ignores you?” I just looked at him, waiting for the answer.
“The cold shoulder!”
I slightly chuckled as I rolled my eyes, “Oh my gosh, I’m going to give you the cold shoulder!”
“Hey, but that one got a laugh out of you!”
“It was more of a scoff because it was ridiculous!”
He smiled and hurried to stand in front of me, effectively stopping me from walking further.
“Okay okay okay! Last one I swear!”
I nodded for him to continue. “Okay. What can you catch in winter, even with your eyes closed?”
I stared at him for a moment before I gave in. “What?”
He smirked and before I knew what was happening he had draped a scarf behind my neck and stepped closer to me so that we were inches apart.
“A cold,” he said as he brought his face closer to mine.
I felt a flare of heat rise to cheeks at Jin’s proximity and when I backed up to put some distance between us, but I must’ve stepped on some ice because I felt myself starting to fall backwards. I closed my eyes, bracing myself for when I hit the ground, but it never happened.
Instead, I felt a tight grip around my torso and when I opened my eyes, Jin’s face was centimeters away from mine.
His eyes held concern as he looked me over.
“Are you okay?” I stared at him for a moment, a little shaken up, but nodded anyway when he looked at me again. He let out a sigh of relief as he helped me stand up.
I coughed slightly, “Um, we should probably be getting back.”
He let the arm that was wrapped around my torso drop to his side as he nodded in agreement.
“Yeah, let’s get going,” he said as he started walking.
~
Once we got home, Jin set his bag down and got to work on preheating the oven and assembling the ingredients. I started setting up the table by grabbing plates and utensils and laying them opposite of each other.
It wasn’t a big table since it was only really only me- and sometimes Hari- who ate here so I didn’t feel the need to buy a big dining table when I moved in.
As I was almost done setting the table a question popped into my head. “Jin, did you want to eat here or on the island?”
He looked over his shoulder as he was putting the ziti in the oven.
“Over there is perfect,” he said before closing the oven door and setting the timer.
When I went to sit down to wait for the food to be done, I finally realized what I was wearing.
Sweats.
Debating on whether I should change into something nicer, I looked at Jin. He was wearing a simple cream button up with jeans and even though it was casual, it was still better than the sweats I was wearing.
Deciding that I should, at least, look a bit nicer for dinner and got up to head to my room.
“I’m gonna go change real quick before the food’s ready,” I said.
He nodded, “Take your time! The food will be done when you come back.”
And with that, I walked over to my room. I didn’t want to look overly fancy, so I ended up deciding on a nice, dark green crew neck shirt and some light wash jeans. Casual, but still nice.
As for everything else, I just kept it the same. Hair in a low ponytail and little to no makeup. I didn’t want to put in too much work for something that wouldn’t go anywhere after today.
So, with one final once over in the mirror, I headed back to the kitchen. When I was coming up to the kitchen, there was a visible difference from how it was when I left.
The lights were dimmed and when I rounded the corner there was another surprise waiting. Jin. Holding a rose. In the candle light. I smiled and furrowed my eyebrows.
“Okay… When did this happen,” I questioned, pointing at everything on the table.
He walked closer and handed me the rose with a small smile.
“Right when you left.”
I muttered a small “ah” as I took the rose from him and walked over to the table. Just as I was about to pull out my seat, Jin had beat me to it and gestured for me to sit down while pushing in my seat.
“Ever the gentleman, Jin,” I said.
He chuckled. “I would hope so! We are on a date,” he said while bringing the finished pasta to the table.
That’s when I noticed the bouquet of roses.
“You got a bouquet of roses? Did you get these back at the convenience store when you went to get that wine?”
“Smart girl, though the wine was more of a cover for the flowers,” he said as he took a seat across from me.
“And the tealight candles?”
He nodded.
“Did you even get snacks,” I asked.
He furrowed his brow in confusion, “You’re worried about the snacks?!”
“Yes! Snacks are important to me!” He scoffed and shook his head in disbelief.
“Yes, I got snacks.”
I sighed in relief before he continued, “Your favorite, actually.”
It was now my time to be confused.
“Mrs. Cho told me what you liked.”
I lightly shook as I tried to understand what was going on.
“Why did you go to such great lengths for me? With the roses and the candles and the snacks? I mean, we’re not on a real date,” I questioned.
He softly sighed.
“Because maybe I wanted it to be real. Because maybe I’ve really come to like this girl, whose friend set her up with a date she won at an auction. Who's really easy to talk to and is someone I want to go on more dates with so I can get to know her more.”
I couldn’t believe what I heard.
Jin liked me?
He continued, “And maybe I want to keep cooking with her and have random trips to the convenience store because I forgot something and tell her my bad jokes that she rarely laughs at, but I know that she secretly enjoys them.”
I snorted, “I only laughed at one!”
“You still laughed,” he pointed out. I sighed.
“So?”
“So… she sounds like quite the girl.”
He smiled, “Oh, she is.”
I smiled back at him. “So, I’m sure that she would love to keep cooking with you, though I hear that she’s a pretty good cook herself so I’m sure she would love to return the favor by cooking a dish at yours.”
“It’s a date then?”
I nodded.
“But let’s finish this one first, I’m DYING to try this baked ziti,” I exclaimed before he started dishing it out.
“Well then, bon appetite!”

My Goddess
Pairing: Sky x Fem reader Word count: 1.9k WARNING(S): NSFW MINORS DNI!! | Established relationship, plenty of praise from Sky and penetrative sex General info: By all means, he should be getting more rest since he was clearly exhausted, but he won't listen. He wants you and you're the only one with enough power to get him to listen.
Tumblr media
A grunt startled you wide awake from your half-asleep state, washing off any tiredness you felt with an involuntary jump. Your vision fixated on Sky’s form on the bed in front of you; several sleepy sounds coming from him as he rubbed his face to get rid of the remaining fatigue, finally opening his eyes to the world. The grin on your face unavoidable as you abandoned the chair you were sitting on to plop down next to your partner.
Sky is quick to lock eyes with you, mirroring the big smile on your face, or as big as his current drowsy self would allow him.
“My love!” Link extended the last word in a singsong-like husky tone, intertwining his fingers with yours.
He gradually straightened his posture until he came to a sitting position next to you, an arm was wrapped behind your waist and he brought you closer to him, burying his face in your neck while humming tunes you vaguely recognized; a little out of tune from having woken up so recently.
“Are you feeling any better?” You ask him, patting his back and relaxing into the contact.
“I can only feel good when I’m with you.” Ever the romantic one, he shifts around to smooch your cheek, making you giggle and him joining you afterwards.
“That’s not what I meant, does anything hurt?" You rephrased the question.
“No. Did something happen?” The hero’s face painted with a puzzled look.
“You fell into a deep sleep on the ground right after the last battle. Twilight hauled you back to the inn and had Hyrule check up on you. The Traveler said you only had minor injuries and healed them right away, but I wanted to make sure you really are in good condition.” You explained, biting back a snort when you recalled the Rancher bringing back the sleepyhead that was your boyfriend on his back like a sack of potatoes.
Sky reacted with a mildly surprised ‘Oh.’ after listening to you, getting lost in thought with an expression you couldn’t put your finger on.
"Don't worry, it wasn't a concussion." You reassured him with a soft expression, continuing.
“You should get more sleep. If you were tired enough to fall asleep like that, then you need more rest. It's night time, anyway.” You ran your hand over your boyfriend’s soft, golden locks.
He nuzzled his face into your neck again, this time kissing the underside of your jaw while voicing a whine.
“But I want to be with you, sleep can wait.” His eyes looked impossibly big in that moment, matching the look of a sad puppy.
"We can cuddle as much as you want when you get your energy back." You pat his head in a playful manner.
“But I’ll miss you even more if I do that.” He wasn't quite done begging yet.
"Please, or else I'll have dreams about you."
His voice close to a whisper, Link carefully cupped your face and made you look at him so he could press his lips against yours in a long kiss that you accepted. He never failed to make the butterflies in your stomach flutter about with his romantic gestures and today was no exception, making your cheeks get tinted with red.
Your mouths disconnect and the deep blue of his eyes tells you about tenderness, eternal love and a type of yearning that only you could remedy. You knew that look all too well by now.
“I won’t force you to sleep if you don’t want to, but I know you need the rest. So I’ll just have to tire you out.” An inevitable smirk became present on your features, Sky blushed at the implication, even though excitement bubbled inside of him.
“I don’t think I’d mind that.” He was more than overjoyed, dipping his head to share another kiss with you.
The difference was that this time he had let go of whatever was holding his desire in place, and communicated all his wants through that kiss. Your tongues danced around each other, not shy of what they were seeking. You eventually end up above Link, his straightened legs trapped between yours; taking advantage of the position, you strengthen the kiss.
Your mouths separate with pants to make up for the lost air; words weren’t necessary between the both of you sometimes, sharing the same idea and beginning to undress in that moment. After enough maneuvers to get your clothes off, you assumed the same positions from earlier, taking a moment to contemplate each other with adoration. Sky firmly rested his hands on your hips, his scarlet-dyed face displaying an elated grin, his heart beating loudly into his ears from anticipation.
Placing a quick peck to your boyfriend’s nose, causing him to let out a giggle, but his avid watching returned when he felt you take his hardened cock with your hand. Holding his member upright from the base, you begin to lower your hips and rub your wet core against his shaft. Sky bit his lip from excitement as his sharp gaze watched every second of movement, you let out a sigh once the motion was complete in contrast to his hum of satisfaction. You drag your hips back up to their previous height while making sure to keep the thick dick on your hand pressed to you.
You repeat your recent movements several times before lining your partner’s cock to your entrance, the fingers on your hips softly squeeze your flesh. Both of you so highly aroused that you didn’t waste another second and began to slowly bury Link’s cock inside you. You’re forced to stop at his thickest point to adjust to his size.
“You’re so beautiful.” His words as sweet as honey, smile even brighter than before and getting a chuckle out of you.
With enough time given you eventually got past the meatiest part; without any other inconveniences you make your descent and take him all the way in, the hero sharply inhales. You brace yourself and lift your hips slowly, getting a few centimeters of the length out of you before lowering yourself again, repeating the process until you built a steady pace.
Sky sung praises at you, coming up with some of the sweetest nicknames you had ever heard.
“Have I ever told you how much you mean to me?” He takes one of your hands in his, the ocean blue of his eyes staring at you as if they reflected sparkles.
“You have, plenty of times.” And you weren’t lying; but regardless of how many times he’s confessed his undying love to you, it always made you feel a comforting warmth from your very inside.
“I can’t help it, I must remind you because you deserve it.” He rubbed the back of your hand with his thumb.
You reinforced the movement of your hips with a little more strength behind it, both of you voicing similar sounds of pleasure. Link gently rocked his pelvis against yours, his cock reached deeper inside. The sound of skin hitting skin reverberated inside the room. A slight frown of concentration on his face as he focused on pushing into you when you came down, sweat began to form on his brow.
“You’re my Goddess, you give me the strength I need to get through everything.” He placed a kiss on the knuckles of the hand he was holding.
Link didn’t give you the time to reply as his thrusts picked up speed. His girthy penis filled you so nicely and hit all the way inside you, as if the constant rubbing on your walls wasn’t enough yet, Sky began rubbing your clit with his thumb. The warmth of his digit was a pleasant feeling compared to what it felt like to be out in the open. All the stimulation lit a flame in your nethers that only got warmer the more time passed, he had mastered his technique for sure; every time you would drop down his finger pressed against you entirely, and he made sure to rub in just the perfect way to take advantage of your bouncing.
The speed of your pace incremented slightly, you encouraged Sky to give you more, as much as he could with your many words of approval. He was living for the attention you were giving him, he loved to get praises from you, it always had a potent effect on him. He felt the cloud of lust in his mind thicken, his cock throbbed with anticipation and his racing heart rate forced him to pant to recover any lost air.
“Let me treat you like the Goddess you are.” He shifted the angle at which his dick met your core, and that seemed to have done the trick more than well.
The strengthened shocks of electricity ran through your body, your pussy clenched every time you felt a wave of pleasure hit you and it made your boyfriend groan every time it happened. Sky took advantage of the liquids that coated your lower bodies, getting his finger slick and using it to smoothly rub on your clit faster than before. His cock throbbed more frequently and his expression was delightfully lewd, a telltale sign he wouldn’t last too long from that point as if his abundant sounds hadn’t gotten the same message across.
All the sensations suddenly became too much, and your orgasm hit you harder than you could have expected. It sent strong shock after shock that culminated at your most sensitive spots; your toes curled, you seized all motions from the intensity of it all and your grip on Link’s hand tightened, he squeezed back. His thrusting stopped as to not overwhelm you, but the divine image of you above him along with your clamping on his dick was enough to send him over the edge. After spilling his seed inside you, he also needed some time to catch his breath.
You recovered before him, getting out of the stickiness that had formed between your bodies to sit next to your partner. His eyes half-closed and his breathing a soft pattern, he had moved himself to rest his head on a pillow.
“I love you so much.” He brought your knuckles to his lips again to kiss them, voice back to the one he had earlier when he had just woken up.
Knowing him, that meant he’d be off to catch some Zs soon.
“I love you too.” You replied, making yourself as comfortable as you could and laying your body on the mattress.
Link’s eyes were evidently heavy with sleep, but he managed to push through it to smile at you as bright as he always did. He spoke sweet nothings to you until his words progressively slurred and subsequently, turned into mumbles that only he knew what they meant. His eyes closed with serenity, and you saw his body let go of all tension.
Seeing him so happy and at peace brought you such indescribable joy that you couldn’t quite put into words; everything felt right in that moment, it felt like home, and it made you forget that you and the others had been fighting for your lives nearly every day for who even knows how long now. You took hold of the long forgotten blanket, slipping it over both of you and draping an arm over Sky. You nuzzled as best as you could against his sleeping form, and it didn’t take long for you to fall into peaceful slumber as well.

You knew that calling JJ wasn’t the best idea. But you were slightly past tipsy (okay maybe a bit more than just slightly) and higher than a fucking kite, so that little voice in the back of your head telling you to put down your goddamn phone wasn’t a main priority at the moment. 
As the dial tone rang, you took another swig of beer, sighing in satisfaction at the cool bitterness of it sliding down your throat. Beer wasn’t usually your drink of choice, but it was all you had in the fridge right now—courtesy of the blond boy you were currently calling. 
“Yo, it’s JJ! I’m probably out doing some shit I’m not supposed to, but leave a message and maybe I’ll hit you back. Or maybe I won’t, I dunno. Peace!” God, that stupid voicemail always used to annoy the shit out of you, but right now, in your drunken haze, it kinda made your heart ache a little bit more. 
“Pick up your damn phone, J, I need to tell you something.” You mumbled, words slurred by one too many cans of beer. After a few seconds of waiting for him to answer before you remembered this was his voicemail, you chuckled drunkenly to yourself. “Hey. It’s me, your best friend. I just wanted to tell you that everything—everything is fine. Everything is totally fine. I’m happy for you. Happy that you—you found someone who makes you happy.” 
You hiccuped, letting out another airy laugh. “Anyways, the reason why I called was to let you know that I am over you. I’m over you, and—shit, I need to pee. Fuck. Uh, I’m—I’m not in love with you anymore. I’m totally over you. Yeah. That’s it. ‘Mkay, I’m gonna go. Love you, bye.” 
With that, you hung up, tossing your phone aside in favor of downing the rest of the remaining beer in the can before heaving yourself up from the couch and stumbling towards the bathroom. After you were done, you returned to your previous position, now fighting the sleep threatening to overtake you and very quickly losing. The last thing you remembered was thinking about the message you’d left JJ, and how you were proud of yourself for finally getting some closure regarding the feelings you had for him. 
-------
You were woken up in the morning by a pillow being thrown at your face, blinking awake slowly to see none other than JJ Maybank hovering over you, squinting at you curiously. JJ tended to show up at your place randomly, and after the time you almost smacked him upside the head with a baseball bat as he crawled through an open window instead of knocking, now used the key you’d given him to come and go as he pleased. 
“You look like shit.” He snickered, deftly dodging the palm you shoved up towards him. “What did you even do last night?” 
“Drank the beer you left in the fridge.” 
JJ’s eyebrows flew sky high. “All of it? Y/N, that was like, a whole pack.” 
“Mmhm. Smoked those joints I snagged from your stash too.” You mumbled, rubbing your eye furiously. 
“Damn.” JJ let out an impressed whistle. “Who pissed you off?” 
“I don’t even remember, man,” You pulled yourself off the couch, picking up all the empty beer cans littering the coffee table and tossing them into the trash on your way to the bathroom to find some painkillers. Vague memories of last night bounced through your mind in flashes, some more clear, but most of them just a blur. You remembered hearing JJ’s voice over the phone, but not really anything after that. “J, did you call me last night?” 
“Call you? Nah, I stayed over at Brianna’s last night. Haven’t even touched my phone since yesterday morning.” 
Right. Brianna, JJ’s perfect new girlfriend. Of course he was with her last night. Lately, that was where he’d been spending most of his time when he wasn’t working. But you weren’t bitter. Not even a little bit. 
“Huh, that’s weird. I swear I remember talking to you, but I was super wasted last night, so,” You sighed from the bathroom, dry swallowing two painkillers, then padding back out to the kitchen. “I probably dreamt it, or something.” 
“Sounds like you had a blast.” He chuckled, flopping onto the couch with a satisfied huff. You flipped him off behind your back, busying yourself with rifling through the fridge for something to eat and heaving out a sigh when you saw that the shelves were pretty much barren. You made a mental note to swing by the store after your shift at The Wreck tonight. “Yo, you called me last night. There’s a message right here.” 
“Really? It’s probably nothing, you can just—” 
Shit. 
Shit, shit, shit. 
Everything came flooding back in one go—calling JJ late last night, spilling your guts about being both in love and over him, leaving him that fucking voicemail. 
“Dude, you sound absolutely zooted. How much kush was in those joints?” JJ snorted. 
You slammed the fridge shut, all but sprinting towards him, even vaulting over the coffee table like some sort of freaking ninja. “Gimme the phone! Give me your fucking phone, JJ, I swear to god—” 
He sprung up from the couch with a surprised cry, sidestepping your attempts at grabbing his phone. “The fuck is your problem, Y/N? Stop it!” 
You took a chance, throwing yourself onto his back to try and snatch it out of his hand before he had a chance to hear the whole voicemail. But when he froze in place, you knew you were too late. He’d heard the whole thing. 
“Oh my god. Oh my god, this isn’t happening,” You whispered, squeezing your eyes shut as you slid off his back and faceplanted back onto the couch. He didn’t say anything for the longest time, and you were glad for it. Maybe he’d suddenly gone deaf and didn’t actually hear the message. Maybe he’d sprouted a sudden bout of amnesia and forgot everything that happened in the last ten minutes. Maybe—
“You’re over me?” He asked softly. You felt the couch dip down opposite from where you were buried in it. “You’re over me. When were you—when were you…under me?” 
“Oh my god,” You repeated, voice muffled by the couch cushion. 
JJ poked your leg once, twice, then a third time. “Hey. Y/N, look at me. What’s happening? Why are you—what are you doing?” 
“I can’t,” You groaned, finally sitting up. You still refused to look at him though, so he did the only thing he could think of. He kept poking you until you met his gaze, which only took about thirty seconds. “Fine. Lately, I’ve kinda, sorta, maybe…had feelings for you.” 
“Oh. That’s—oh.” His brow creased in thought. “You have feelings for me.” 
“Yeah, well, you had them first.” You didn’t know why you were suddenly so defensive, but you couldn’t take it back now. 
“Whoa, whoa, how did you know that? Who told you? Was it Kie? John B? I can’t tell anyone anything anymore, jesus fuck!” 
“It was Pope. You know how bad he is at keeping secrets.” 
JJ nodded. “That makes more sense. Uh, when?” 
“The night you went on your first date with Brianna.” 
“Brianna. Oh fuck. Bri—I need to go.” JJ spluttered, stumbling to his feet. His hands lodged into his hair as he made his way to the front door, then turned around to face you again. “No, I’ll stay. I don’t know.” 
You started to approach him, then decided against it, keeping both arms wrapped around yourself like you’d be able to shield yourself from the clusterfuck of awkwardness you’d unleashed into the atmosphere. “I’m sorry, J, I didn’t mean to make things weird. I was really drunk last night, and I—” 
“You…you were in love with me. But you’re over me now.” He interrupted, letting his hands slap against his sides. “You are over me now, right? We can just forget this ever happened?” 
You wanted to tell him you were really over him, but you were honestly tired of keeping this huge secret for so long. And as daunting as it seemed, it was time to own up to your feelings and lay it all out there in the open. 
“No.” 
“No…as in, you’re not over me?” 
“I’m still in love with you, JJ.” You mumbled, lifting your gaze from your socked feet to meet his very conflicted one. 
“I can’t do this right now, Y/N, I should—I should leave. Yeah. I’m gonna,” He retreated towards the front door yet again, fumbling for the doorknob blindly, “I’m gonna go. I’m sorry.” With that, he left, the roaring of his bike engine fading into the distance being the only thing that jerked you back to reality. The reality where you might’ve just lost your best friend because of a stupid, drunken voicemail. 
Fuck. 
-------
You were wiping down the rest of the tables at The Wreck after closing when you heard the door open behind you. Plastering a polite smile on your face, you turned around to tell whoever had just come in that you were closed. 
“Sorry, we’re closed, but we open for breakfast at 9 tomorrow morning if you wanna—” You stopped short when you saw it was JJ standing there, eyes widening. “JJ. Hi. What are you doing here?” 
“I need to talk to you.” 
“Look, if it’s about what happened this morning, I already feel awful, and I’m sorry, but I couldn’t lie to you anymore.” You sighed, spraying down another table to wipe. 
“You had no right to tell me you’re in love with me, Y/N. I’m with Brianna now, okay? And I like her, and I think she’s good for me!” JJ’s outburst cleaved through the terse silence like the sharpest of knives, cutting deep into your already guilty conscience like butter. He dragged his hands through his already messy hair, brows furrowing heavily. “Everything’s been going great with her until I found out about you.” 
“I was doing great before I found out about you too, asshole! You think I wanted this to happen? You think I wanted to be the one to mess up your relationship? I know you’re happy, JJ, and I’m happy for you.” You weren’t kidding about the last part. Seeing JJ happy was all you’d ever wanted. But seeing him happy with someone that wasn’t you, that was what hurt. “But this is—you think this is easy for me? Seeing you with her all the time? Because I’m telling you right now, it’s not.” 
“Well then, you should’ve said something before I met her instead of leaving that bullshit voicemail last night!” 
“I didn’t know then, and I was fucking drunk yesterday! I didn’t do it on purpose!” You exclaimed, throwing the towel down on the table rather forcefully. “And how come you didn’t say anything either, huh? If you were in love with me too, why didn’t you just tell me?” 
“I couldn’t! You’re one of my best friends, and me telling you I was in love with you would’ve fucked everything up!” 
“Fucked what up?” 
“The friend group, our friendship—fucking everything!!!” His hands were linked behind his neck now as he paced back and forth between the tables, head tilted up towards the wooden beamed ceiling to avoid looking at you. “You guys are all I have, okay? I can’t lose you. Any of you. And you and me…it would’ve driven a wedge between everyone. No Pogue on Pogue macking, remember?” 
“You’re gonna let a stupid rule we made when we were kids get in the way of things?” You scoffed, crossing your arms. “God, I thought you were braver than that, JJ.” 
A muscle in his jaw flexed as he turned his glare on you. “Guess I’m just a coward for thinking of the group then.” 
“Don’t fucking do that, don’t hide behind our friends. I know you, and I know that you’d never let a stupid rule stop you from doing something you wanted to do, so stop blaming this on it. This is on you.” 
“This is on me? What about you?” 
“Me?” 
“Yeah, you! How come you didn’t say anything?” JJ shot back, jabbing a finger in your direction. “You go around flirting with everyone, hooking up with Tourons, and then you say you’ve been in love with me the whole time? The hell am I supposed to think about that?” 
You knew JJ was just lashing out because he was angry, but there was something in his accusation that struck a nerve. Even he could tell that he’d hit it by the way you shrunk back the slightest bit. 
“Fuck you, JJ. Stop making it seem like I’m throwing myself around at every single fucking guy who comes around!” You snarled, eyes flashing dangerously. 
He faltered, squeezing his eyes shut momentarily, and when he opened them again, they were that soft blue that always made your heart skip a beat. “No, I didn’t—I didn’t mean it like that. It’s just…you have really shitty timing, you know that? Bri and I are just getting good, and I can’t do this with you right now, Y/N!” 
“Then don’t! Just ignore me like you’ve ignored your feelings for god knows how long!” 
“I can’t.” JJ muttered, shaking his head. “It was one thing when I thought I was crazy for being in love with someone I could never have, but now that I know how you feel…it’s different.” 
“Do you still feel the same way about me?” 
“I don’t know.” 
“Yes, you do. Gut answer. Go.” 
“Yes. Fuck, I’m still in love with you, Y/N.” JJ groaned, digging the heels of his palms against his eyes furiously. 
“Then what are you gonna do about it?” 
“Probably something I shouldn’t.” He breathed, not even taking a second to think before he was crossing the restaurant floor and pulling you into his arms to kiss you fiercely. Although taken completely by surprise, you managed to steady yourself and kiss him back. 
Kissing JJ was better than you could’ve ever imagined, but you couldn’t stop the little voice in the back of your head from screaming ‘he has a girlfriend, for fuck’s sake’, and that was had you pulling away from him. 
“We can’t—we can’t do this.” You spluttered, pushing him away a few steps. JJ’s eyebrows furrowed in confusion. “Dude, you have a girlfriend. You can’t be kissing me like…like that! We shouldn’t even be kissing at all!”
“Crap. Yeah, I know. I know, I’ll break up with her tomorrow.” JJ ran his hand through his hair frustratedly, nodding furiously when you shot him a pointed look. “Look, I’ll be nice about it, and I won’t bring you up. I’ll just say that…I don’t feel the same way about her anymore.”
“I feel horrible.” 
“Whoa, kissing me was that bad?” 
“No, because I’m basically a homewrecker!” 
JJ was quick to approach you again, sliding his fingers under your chin and tilting your head up to meet his stern gaze. “Y/N, you’re not a homewrecker. I love you. I want to be with you. I don’t care what anyone else thinks.” 
“But you said you and Bri were just getting good. That she was good for you.” You frowned, to which JJ smiled guiltily with a shake of his head. 
“I was lying. Kinda just wanted to make you feel bad for springing this on me.” He snickered. “Did I go too far?” 
“You’re an asshole, Maybank.” You shoved him away from you with a huff, but he came right back, trapping your wrists in one hand while the other came to cup your cheek as he pressed a sweet kiss to your lips. “Stop kissing me.” 
“Oh, please, you don’t really want me to stop kissing you, do you?” He snorted. “I mean, you are in love with me, after all.” 
All you could do was glare at him playfully, but you couldn’t deny that what he was saying wasn’t true. 
“C’mon, I’ll help you finish cleaning so you can close up and we can get the fuck out of here.” He chuckled, giving your hip one last squeeze before you grabbed the wet towel off the table and flung it at him. “You little shit! Get over here!” 
Safe to say, it took you a lot longer than usual to close up when JJ was with you, but you didn’t really care. 
All you cared about was that you were in love with JJ Maybank and he was in love with you, and it only took one pack of beer, two joints, and a drunk voicemail for you to admit it to each other.

Lilia's Backstory - Monster AU
Monster: Naga Word Count: 0.68K Relationships Mentioned: Silver, his birth mother TW: Child abandonment, brief PTSD moment --------------------------------------
Who would be foolish enough to leave their child unattended in the woods? The babes cry hadn't ceased for nearly an hour. Normally, Lilia preferred a challenge when it came to food. Not only that, but he enjoyed watching children play and have fun from his refuge in the trees. He found them rather endearing, and thrived off how lively they could be. But this one sounded much younger than the ones he would watch play. And it didn't seem to stop crying, peaking both his interest and concern. It didn't take him long to find the source of the sobbing, draping himself comfortably across sturdy tree limbs as he peered down at the small wicker basket on the ground. There was a bag next to it, with a piece of paper attached to the side. The basket, upon closer inspection, had the child inside of it bundled nicely in a soft, blue fabric. It's crying was starting to slow, easing into ragged, tired sounding whimpers. It wasn't until Lilia was sure the tiny being was asleep that he let himself fall to the ground and slither closer to investigate. The child had fine, silvery hair and rosy cheeks from having cried so much. Lilia felt a moment of regret for not having come checked sooner, reaching out to gently wipe the child's tears away. However, the moment he came into contact with him, he recoiled as if he'd been shot. Images flashed in his mind of times best left forgotten; memories he had repressed. It took him a moment to collect himself, before wiping at tears he hadn't realized he'd shed. He glanced at the child, stunned and almost afraid. He wracked his memory for any sort of monster that was capable of such a thing, but the ability draw up old memories was too vague to really come up with something. He debated leaving the child - clearly he wasn't equipped to care for it- but chided himself when he looked back at the babies face. It wasn't the child's fault. His eyes finally settled on the paper on the bag next to him, cautiously approaching it before unfolding it and reading the note. I didn't want to do this, I never wanted to do this. If you're reading this, I hope you understand. I would tell you everything if I could. Bear to you my whole story, how it came to this. But I don't have time. All I can ask is that you'll forgive me for asking this of you. This is was? my son. He's six months old and hasn't got a name yet. I was terrified to call him by anything in the event he passed early, or if I was caught with him. This bag has the beginnings of what you'll need to take care of him. Diapers, wipes, bottles, formula, blankets, clothes, anything I could shove inside. I never wanted to part with him, but now that I must, I hope that some kindly monster will take him in as their own. Please. This is likely my dying wish. I know you don't owe me anything...but he's just a baby. And I have no other options. So if you answer this desperate mother's plea, thank you. Thank you and may you know a life of riches and happiness and health. There was another paragraph haphazardly scribbled, but she had crossed it out. Lilia folded the note back up and peered into the bag, curious and taking note that everything she had listed, and then some, was inside. He looked back to the now peacefully sleeping child, very carefully using a clawed finger to pull the blanket down from his face. He noticed there were no repercussions, easing his nerves and making the decision easier for him. He would learn to take care of this monster, whatever he was, and raise him as his own. Warmth sparked inside of him as he slung the bag over his shoulder and held the basket carefully, rocking it slightly as he slithered back to his home. -------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi!! I absolutely love your maze runner stuff!! I was was wondering about how the glazers would react to a trans guy coming up from the box? Maybe he’s a bit on the quieter side (until you get to know him and then he’s just as mischievous as the rest of them) and enjoys art? Anyways sorry if this was vague or anything I didn’t see and requesting rules on your page! But yeah, love your work and I hope you have a great day!!
Hi! Thanks so much for requesting this one I had so much fun writing all my wholesome maze boys ❤❤❤ Hope you enjoyed :)

Platonic gladers x trans masc!reader
Notes: I DIDN'T REALISE UNTIL I WROTE MOST OF A FIC THAT THIS WAS PROBABLY MEANT TO BE HEADCANON-FORMATTED. I rewrote it but I couldn't help but keep in the Minho scene so that's why that's there
Warnings: language (glader slang + normal swearing)
Tumblr media
Newt
Your first friend, of course
Newt's the best guy and is so, so caring on your first day, and you quickly find comfort in him
He immediately supports you when you're struggling with some things on your first night
When you're grabbing clothes for a shower, he offers you a bunch of different shirts, including a really big, loose one if you want it, to make sure you're as comfortable as possible
If you've got a period, Newt's your go to guy. At first, you're anxious to ask about anything, but Newt's pretty intuitive and understands what you're looking for
He prepares strips of linen and clean fabrics since they don't have access to proper sanitary products
Plus, he's got all his subtle ways of making you more comfortable without bringing unwanted attention - he might pass you a hot water bottle before bed, or give you less demanding work while you're in the worst of it
---
Newt is kind to every new person that joins, and everybody loves him, but eventually most Greenies will find their own close friend circles within their jobs.
You're one of the first newbies in a while to actually stick with Newt
You're one of the few people that doesn't get on Newt's nerves every so often, and he's always relieved to see you after a long day
He'll sit down and cross his ankles over your legs when he's had a hard time, and you'll just talk and unwind
When neither of you can sleep, you'll find each other and just have profound, deep late night talks, which started right from your first day
---
Newt loves your art and finds it relaxing to just watch you draw, or paint
The two of you (and sometimes Minho and Frypan) can sit for hours in peaceful silence, just you sitting up with a sketchbook and the other guys sprawled out on the grass
He's picked up some art tips from you too, but he doesn't really paint to make art of any ground-breaking quality; he usually just splashes colours across a page for fun and to calm his mind, which- is so valid, of course
Minho
Minho didn't like you immediately, and he'd be honest about that too - you were a little too quiet for him
But one moment changed that for him (cue cutscene)
"This is the Map," says Minho, gesturing at the covered table. He's been giving you the Runners intro crash course, which is the first job the Gladers explain since most new guys aren't gonna be chosen for it. "You'll see it if you become a Runner." You nod again, as you've been doing a lot for the past few minutes. "Don't talk much, do you?" comments Minho, arms crossing over his chest as he looks at you appraisingly. "Minho," warns Newt. You blink at him, not really sure how to respond to that. "I-" "It's okay," interrupts Minho. "Just something to work on. Cause listen, Newt here can coddle you and the rest of the greenbeans all he wants, but the hard truth is that this ain't a place for some shank who isn't gonna speak up. We're a team, in the Glade. Everyone's part of the family. I just wanna clear this up now, let you know that if you don't open your mouth and use your voice, you're gonna have problems." "God- every shuckin' month," groans Newt, massaging his temples. "Now it's fine if you're just quiet," continues Minho, "But I just think it's best to know that you'll have a much better time here if you talk to people." Newt sighs. "Look, Minho's right, but you can take your time, okay? Settle in at your own rate." "Alright now, Greenie. Anything to say about the Runner's intro so far? Or just anything to say at all?" Fuck, okay. This is the start. Just say something funny, aim for levity. "Those drawings are shit," you say flatly, gesturing to the pencil sketches of the Maze you'd seen on the way in. Newt chokes. Minho blinks, before he bursts out in cackles. Oh, well that wasn't too hard. "You should really work on how the shadows turn out instead of just colouring it black," you continue, since insults are apparently the way to go. Minho starts wheezing, and you look to Newt expecting to see some amusement on his face, but he just looks shocked. "Those- those are my drawings," he manages to say. Your eyes widen, and your stomach drops. "Oh. Oh my god. Oh my god, I'm so sorry. I thought- oh my god." Minho's crying laughing by now, bending over and clutching his stomach. You jolt slightly as his hand lands on your shoulder. "Nevermind," he gasps out between snorts. "Forget what I said, you're gonna be fine here." You stare at Newt, mortified, but he just shakes his head, an amused expression forming on his face. "They are pretty shit, aren't they? It's alright, maybe you can replace them for us." Newt slings an arm around your shoulder as he leads you out of the hut. "C'mon, gardening intro's next. Minho, don't piss yourself," he adds, looking down with mock-disdain at his friend.
So... yeah. You guys pretty much just became friends after that
Except- okay, with Newt, you'd definitely developed a soft spot for him, and he seems to like you too, despite the way you insulted him pretty much to his face on your second day.
But with Minho, you've gotten the opposite of a soft spot for him
The two of you mainly thrive on mutual bitchiness, resulting in a friendship mainly consisting of eyerolls and snarky remarks
It works though, and you sit with him at every meal, always facing each other and playing some foot-kicking-game under the table, always with a straight face
He'll wait for you when his evening runs finish before dinner, and you'll wake up early to have breakfast with him and the Runners
He doesn't touch art himself, but he likes to sit with you and annoy you while you're meant to be having some peaceful time
To set the scene, it's usually Newt lying on his stomach watching as you sit in front your canvas (multiple pieces of paper stuck to a piece of wood), mixing paints, with Minho sitting beside you and making little comments
"Paint it yellow."
"That's the sky."
"It's sunny."
"The sky is still blue."
Idk I just think he'd make silly little comments for absolutely no reason
Also, you end up painting the sky yellow, and it fucking looks better
Frypan
After hearing from Newt that you liked art, Frypan started looking for materials for you, cause he always goes out of his way to make the Greenies as comfortable as possible
In his free time, he went out to crush up little plants and pigment rocks to experiment with mixing them with water and make paints and watercolours
Most people had decided that you seemed to just want to keep to yourself, including Frypan, but he saw you getting close and joking around with Newt and Minho, and knew that you would open up if only people gave you the chance
So he kept it slow, grinning at you when you go up for meals, until you started always smiling back at him, and you started hanging out on a regular basis
He's genuinely astounded by every piece of art you show him, whether it's a simple sketch of a random flower or a sunrise painting you'd spent days on (It's always "Shuck, Y/n. This is amazing!")
Gally
Gally is besties with Frypan (I will fight you on this)
So that's how you met him
He'd always be cool with you, just "sup, Greenie" every time you were both with Frypan at the same time
But then you started to build your own relationship with him too
You became friends when you started sketching architecture-y things for him, and he'd annotate little instructions on the drawings to hand out to the other builders
He's always just quietly impressed by your sketches, nodding and "thanks Greenie"
You actually become known as the 'art guy' around the Glade
The Medjacks will call you in to make pencil sketches of the plants and herbs for their little medicine book
You've always got Frypan's paint stained on your fingers, but it's a look
Tumblr media
Thanks for reading <3

Oh, the wise one of the wise ones!
First of all, I want to say, that I hope you're feeling better now (you wrote, that you are worring over earthsquakes in your recent post).
It's nice to see, that you too consider Zam a literall gem among sw characters! I have three questions for you, if you don't mind :) :
Is there any more about her daughter? Beyond her name (was it Sone?)? Is she changeling too?
That's a complex question - do you think she would be proud of adult Boba (in canon/legends, doesn't matter)? What would she think of him?
What were her "deeper feelings" about Jango? By that I mean who did she really consider him? A friend? Partner in crime? Is there any part with her Pov. about him?
PS: It's my first time sending an ask, hope you are honored!
hello hello! :D thank you for your kind words and fun questions about one of my fave star wars characters; i'll do my best to answer!
sadly, if there is any more existing information about sone wesell, i haven't found it. sone was actually "introduced" not as a fully-fledged character, but as a footnote in a source book for wizards of the coast's star wars roleplaying game. it seems likely to me that descriptions of her were intentionally vague so that GMs could more easily fit her into their campaigns if they chose to feature her as an NPC. that said, given that both zam and sone's father are said to be clawdites, it is likely that sone would have been born with at least the capacity to shapeshift!
i'll be honest: i've totally imagined the conversation that would happen between zam and a grown-up boba should they ever meet. (my favorite daydream scenario is that there's a malfunctioning inter-dimensional portal that intermittently spits out people/characters from various points in canon into a massive space-station-city where they all then have to reconfigure how they relate to each other and rebuild their lives, but uh, anyway.) personally, i think that if zam met any version of (legends) boba over the age of 18, she'd just be really sad for him. for one, she's known boba since he was just 5 years old or so, so i think there'd be some inevitable sadness in finding out how much he'd suffered after her death. there's also just the shock of seeing how much that suffering transformed him, how this sweet, funny kid who loved animals and bad jokes and novels about friends going on adventures became a man whose life is so devoid of joy, connection, or compassion that his kneejerk response to genuine kindness is hostility or aversion. zam might be a bounty hunter as well, but she never lost her sense of playfulness, expressiveness, or affection, so i think it would hurt her to see boba take that path. that said, if she met boba much later in the timeline (like, post-yuuzhan vong), i think she'd feel some hope and relief seeing him starting to try for connection again!
we do actually get some of zam's PoV as it regards jango in the novel the shapeshifter strikes! i think it's pretty clear that their relationship went beyond being simply partners-in-crime (jango trusted zam to basically babysit boba, for crying out loud) and they have flirty banter in virtually every piece of media they appear together in. boba himself refers to zam as jango's friend and even considers if she might be his mom at one point (though he ultimately comes to the conclusion that this is impossible bc he's read in books that moms don't shapeshift). zam herself definitely enjoys jango's company and especially flirting with and teasing him. that said, even she is occasionally shocked or disturbed by jango's more callous moments, such as when he's willing to let a terrorist group target millions of civilians on coruscant, or when he uses a cloned child's body to throw other bounty hunters off boba's scent. my personal reading of their relationship is that she genuinely really likes and is even attracted to jango, not least because of the risk he presents (she is a thrill-seeker after all), but that she ultimately trusts him not to do anything to really hurt her. and honestly, not unreasonably! we see from their dark horse comic series that even when they're working as rivals, they do try and look out for each other and keep the other from any serious harm. so, in that sense, she misjudged him; she thought that being his friend and having this history with him would save her from being expendable in his eyes. in the shapeshifter strikes, zam even asks jango if he'd ever really kill her and when he answers quite honestly, "only if i had to," she laughs it off with a quip ("you say the sweetest things!"). so, in sum, i'd describe zam's "deeper feelings" for jango being genuine friendship, affection, and even attraction, along with an unfortunate overestimation of just how indispensable she was as his only friend. which isn't to say that she wasn't truly his friend—we get multiple indications that jango did genuinely care about her—but ultimately, that wouldn't prevent him from sacrificing her once he deemed it necessary.

hello! as a dancer, i would like to kindly ask who do you think is secretly the best dancer in haikyuu?
okay okay okay
happy valentine's first of all!!
second of all, my only experience with dance was ballet when i was 3 SO idk if I'm qualified to determine the BEST??
and i'm not sure if you meant like, specific style, so I'll try to incorporate a bunch/keep it vague. also the best dancers are kinda sprinkled throughout, it's not really a straight answer, I'm sorry!! ig the ones in all caps are my opinion of the best dancers.
this was so fun to think about and write!! thank you for the request and sorry it took so long to post!!!
{Haikyuu characters that know how to dance and those who don't- HCs}
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
OFF THE TOP OF MY HEAD, I think he would be good at ballroom dancing. His parents definitely made him take lessons when he was a kid and either hated it and endured it or secretly enjoyed it and never let on. no one could figure it out. but when you're at some fancy event with him and he suddenly leads you onto the dancefloor and starts waltzing along with the other couples, you're pleasantly surprised.
SAKUSA (he is so smug about it when you get slightly flustered when he pulls you close and marvel at how good he is), Osamu (didn't mind it, but would never admit it, especially to tsumu. likes to dance with you) and Atsumu (hated it back then but loves it now that he has you for a partner at the fancier galas), KITA (the one who actually didn't hate it and wasn't afraid to admit it and ofc he's amazing at it), Oikawa (definitely dressed up for his classes), Akaashi (he is SO SMOOTH), Aran and surprisingly even to me, Kageyama. DAICHI.
he would be good, but only because before he started with volleyball, his parents needed something to keep him active and busy. he was the definition of a fidgety kid. no specific style bc obviously he eventually got into volleyball. but he's good at keeping a rhythm, definitely doesn't have two left feet. knows how to follow basic choreography, probably.
HINATA (okay he's clumsy but not when he's dancing), tanaka, NOYA, BOKUTO, kyotani (he'll never admit it tho), hanamaki (seijoh will tease him for it until they learn oikawa willingly wore a suit to his classes even if it wasn't madatory), Tendou.
has never taken a dance class but is surprisingly decent at staying on beat when you're dancing together. either in a club/party setting or just dancing in your living room, they can definitely move.
MATSUKAWA, SUNA (tho only you know it, he'd rather die than let the twins find out), Sugawara, KUROO (I WILL REST ON THIS HILL, I WANT TO DANCE WITH HIM), Yaku, SEMI. Kiyoko. Iwaizumi. (iwa and mattsun are crazy good imo).
CANNOT DANCE TO SAVE THEIR LIFE, but will try anyway bc they know it makes you laugh. will probably be sitting out at parties unless you insist everyone is too drunk to care how bad someone is at dancing.
kenma, USHIJIMA (he needs to be bad at something and that something is dancing sorry), YACHI, Asahi, Alisa, LEV, Tsukki, Yamaguchi, KUNIMI, kindaichi.
side note: hinata and oikawa definitely picked up more moves in brazil and argentina respectively. they can dance. thank you that is all.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I hope this was okay!!! Wishing you a happy valentine's day <333
