"I'll Take it on Faith"

Zelda has a chat with a child as the schoolhouse is being built, and comes to a decision...

Four Months After the Defeat of Calamity Ganon

The first rays of the sun shone into the window, illuminating the tiny bed in the loft of Link’s Hateno home and the two figures lying asleep in the bed. Link yawned quietly and stretched a little, but found himself unable to get up. Zelda, erstwhile princess of Hyrule and his current roommate, was lying across his chest, snoring and slightly drooling on him. Link smiled and lightly rubbed the back of her head– it had been a busy week for them, and they’d just gotten back home, after all. They’d gone to Zora’s Domain to examine Vah Ruta, hoping to determine why the Divine Beast had shut down. After a solid week of examination, Zelda had determined that the power supply for Vah Ruta had been almost fully drained by its final attack, and it would take years for it to recover. The Divine Beasts would be movable by the next year, at least– and then they could be hidden safely away. Zelda stirred slightly, cuddling closer to Link without waking up fully. “Mmm… need to replace capacitor sixteen-alpha… check any gears for wear…” Link felt one of her legs cross over top of his own. “Then we can have some fun…” Zelda giggled lightly. Um… is she having a frisky dream? Oh no. Oh NO. Alright, Link– you’ve prepared for EVERYTHING, and awkward morning situations were among them. Let’s see… What was my plan for this? Oh, right. “Leap into Death Mountain crater, apologizing the entire way down.” Dammit, Past Link! I need a plan for the MOMENT, not for dealing with the aftermath! Okay… maybe I can sneak out of bed… no, she’s basically tangled up with me. Wake her up? I don’t wanna do that either– she barely got any sleep this whole last week! Teleport free? No, the Sheikah Slate is on the desk! Welp. Guess I’m doomed. Link shut his eyes and began focusing his breathing to ensure there were no OTHER horrible morning mishaps– he’d at least hopefully avoid any humiliation stemming from his biology. “Link…” Zelda mumbled, nuzzling his neck. “Replace that canister, would you? Thank you…” There was a small delay, then she chuckled. “Love to watch that man work… wuzzat, Mipha? Mmm, yeah, he’s got a butt that won’t quit…” She rolled her shoulders lightly, resting her head more firmly on his chest. Okay, body. I know this is an awkward request, but I need you to go ahead and put me into a coma. A week will do– I don’t need it to be a hundred years again. Just enough that Zelda’s not embarrassed when she wakes up. Alright? Good. Annnnnd… I’m still awake. How about a mild heart attack? I eat enough weird stuff— I’m sure something I ate can cause one! I just ate a ruby the other day to impress Sidon! Okay, fine– Hylia, goddess of the land– how about a big thunderstorm? Wake her up with a jump! …Still nothing. I’m starting to get why Zelda was so resentful. Link shut his eyes and began vision training. Two agonizing (yet delightful) hours later, Zelda woke up, still wrapped around Link. Oh… oh my. That’s an awkward way to wake up. I hope I didn’t make Link uncomfortable… oh good, he’s still asleep. Zelda quietly disentangled herself from Link, blushing heavily. “Link… are you awake?” She whispered, getting no response. “Phew… it looks like he didn’t wake up.” She let a breath out, then looked over and smiled at him. “He’s very cute when he’s asleep… I guess he was tired, too.” She suddenly broke into a wide smile. “Wait, this means I can actually make breakfast for him!” She hopped out of bed and jogged downstairs. “Alright! I finally get a chance to test my skills!” Link laid in bed for a while, having been fully awake the whole time. Cute, huh? I’ll take it! And now she’s making breakfast… damn, I’m lucky. “Oops! Oh well, a little shell in an omelet won’t hurt…” Zelda said from downstairs. “Whoops! Oh well, a little fire can’t hurt…” Maybe I should go help, just to make sure she doesn’t burn the house down. Link thought for a moment. Nah. She’ll do great. I’ll take it on faith. Sure enough, Link thought breakfast was excellent.

Day 18 and 19 of Building Elsa’s Ice Palace

Yesterday I crashed for like 12 hours lol. I mean I had to stay up for like 28 hours for that to happen, but totally worth it, right?

(Hopefully that won’t happen again any time soon.)

I finally looked up vrbo and boy am I late to the party. I thought it was for regular rentals, not vacation homes. Oh well there goes that idea. I guess I can try advertising on craigslist.

Well I couldn’t do anything at work (personal projects-wise) because the internet kept going out, so a bit of a delay on my end. It gives me time to plan out my weekend.

I don’t remember if I mentioned that I considered getting another overnight gig or not, but I was thinking about getting a second job to overlap with my first one, since most of my night is pretty quiet. So on a whim I decided to apply for a tumblr customer support job lol let’s see if I hear back I wanna see what happens.

Once I got home I was finally free to get my butt in gear and get my business started! :D It’s actually not hard at all filing for an LLC and making your business legal and filed with the state. Only problem is for my particular state you need to pay to file for the paperwork. :/ Oh well, small cost in the long run.

Honestly getting zoom set up took longer. It was super annoyingly hard trying to get my calendar and mail connected and set up with it. The thing wouldn’t connect through google to let me sign in at first. But now it’s done, so people can sign in and schedule appointments. I tried to make a website, but I’ll have to set up my business bank account first so that I can process payments and start actually booking appointments (gotta at least have a place for the money to go, right?)

And honestly? I feel really good. I felt super productive and started getting things done left and right. Granted it was simple stuff but it still didn’t leave me feeling exhausted like it normally does. Maybe all that praying finally worked lol. Only issue is that for any website, app, or service etc. that I can find to help me book appointments or schedule things is still a paid service (which makes sense since this is for businesses) which means I can’t do anything until next week when my paycheck comes in. Looks like it will be split between down payment costs and business start ups. But hey, at least I can write these off for my taxes!

Checking craigslist there seems to be a few people renting and a couple people looking to rent, so that’s promising. I sent a couple emails out to people so I’ll wait to hear back from them. As long as I can find a tenant a couple weeks after closing, I’ll be golden.

Speaking of closing, my loan is now with the underwriters. Basically they're the final approval process for the loan. Everything should go smoothly, and I assume I'll hear back sometime next week.

Well I’d better eat and head to bed. There’s going to be a lot more involved in the business start up than I even realized, but what else is new, lol. Wish me luck in my new ventures!

Whacky Gotham, Goofy New York, and Chaotic Paris.

(Part 1) (Part 2) (Part 3) (Part 4) (Part 5) (Part 6) (Part 7) (Part 8)

Chapter 6: Evade The Bats, and Beat The Crows

•—–—–·†·–—–—•

The girls are in the old living room setting up clues (that are absolutely... useless) around Gotham. One being a picture Harley and Multimouse took earlier that day.

"They might think to look here after they realize the clues are fake." - Steph

"Then where else would they not think to look?" - Maria

"W.E, I can get you and Harley in without them knowing easily." - Barbara said with a confident smile.

"But they'll have to go incognito... especially you Harley, no offense, but your outfit stands out just a tad." - Steph

"Ehhh, none taken, I'm sure I can tink of somthin' else tuh wear." - Harley

"I can help with that, but I'll need some clothes and some sewing supplies." - Maria said already thinking of what she could make.

Cass gave a nod and headed out of the room, after a few minutes she came back with t-shirts, jackets, sweaters, shorts, jeans, etc. and droped the pile of clothes infront of the group. She then handed Maria a sewing set she got from Alfred.

"Thanks Cass. I'll get to work on making our costumes." - Maria

"Let me help yuh wit' dat hun." - Harley said as she picked up most of the clothes for Maria

"Thanks." Maria

•—–·Let's see the Chaos shall we·–—•

"You never told us she could use magic!" - Red Hood looking under the table

"I wonder if she can infuse magic with coffee..." - Red Robin said looking in the cabinets for the third time.

"Stop looking for coffee!" - Red Hood

"She could've hidden in here." - Red Robin said while crabbing a mug

"I haven't had enough sleep to deal with this." - Selina then walked over and flopped herself on the couch and proceeded to fall asleep on impact.

"Maria get your tiny self back here right now or else!" - Tony

"Or else what? She Knows MAGIC! What else does she know that you haven't told us?!" - Red Hood

"... I never told you becuase it's meant to be a secret!" - Tony

"Oh, so now you agree with keeping things a secret?" - Red Robin grabbing the coffee

"What else can she do Tony." - Batman

"Well... she's great with tech, can kick butt in a LOT of different ways, has magic, and if she wants to, she can find and know where everyone or anyone is, but I think she gets massive headaches from a wide search like that." - Tony

"Anything else?" - Batman

(Tony thinkng of all the tiny gods she has in jewelery, and that she keeps Paris/friends and family safe on a daily basis, and that she is the well known designer MDC...)"No..." - Tony

As ivy was listening to them talk, she continued to search her garden, until one of her plants had a message fo her.

"Hello Ms. Ivy, please don't help Batman and Iron Man find us, we promise we'll be careful." - Maria

"Where are you?" - Ivy asked whispering into the plant.

After a few minutes Ivy got a detailed plan that Maria, Harley and the girls came up with to evade The IronBat group (Maria thought that would be better than ManMan group 'But it's Bat MAN and Iron MAN, so it has tuh be The ManMan group.' was Harleys defence, but Maria won that one.) and Ivy agreed to help as best she could.

•—–· Over to the Miraculous gang ·–—•

Plagg is cackling like there's no tomorrow.

"Guys something must be wrong, Plagg won't stop cackling, he won't even touch the cheese I gave him!!!" - Adrien

"There's no time for that, we need to find out where the hell Maria is!!" - Chloé

"Hahahaha, Ti- heheh Tikk- pffhaaaaaaahaha!!!" - Plagg

"He's trying to form words!" Adrien cradling Plagg in his hands "What is it my friend? Don't do this, you're to young...*sniff * you're to beautiful!"

"Hehehehe Shhhh- hahaha, she- she- haha...heheh- I'm so p-hehe-Proud wahahaha " - Plagg

"Proud?! She?! Where?! Who, is it Maria?!" - Chloé

"Hhhhhhhhahhaaaaaaaaaa" - Plagg

"Oh God he's wheezing!" - Adrien

"Hey guys, Peter and I got the snacks, found out where Maria might- oh kwami." - Alix walking into the room to a zombie looking Chloé, a panicked Adrien and the Kwami of death/bad luck/chaos laughing himself to death.

"Has he finally lost it?" - Peter

"She has become a true cat! hahahahahaaaaa heheheheeeeeee." - Plagg

Everyone in the room but Plagg "Oh fu-"

•—–· Over to the Batfam ·–—•

So everyone is panicking because for the past hour none of them could find Multimouse. Robin is sitting on the couch next to a now fully awake Selina, Red Hood and Nightwing are once again feeding each other the worst possible situation she could be in, Tony may or may not be hyperventilating, Red Robin is drinking coffee, and Batman is as stoic as ever... well on the outside anyway, on the inside, it's a warzone. Ivy is drinking her tea, slightly worried, but also hiding a small smile.

"What if we ask Oracle to try and help us find her?" - Red Robin

"... Right... Yes, ok let's do that... Bats you do it, I need to sit down." - Tony

•—–· Back to the girls ·–—•

The girls moved everything to the Bat-cave so they could set the route they would take, then the Bat-Computer started ringing.

"Hide!" - Steph

"Where, dere's nuttin' tuh hide behind!" - Harley

"Quick under the Bat-Computer." - Barbara

As soon as Harley and Maria hid under the Bat-Computer, Batman and the rest of the Batfam was on video call.

"Hey guys, what do you need?" - Barbara acting like nothing happened

"We need you to search for Maria, she's in a dark gray suit with pink accents, and she's with Harley." - Batman

"Ok, no prob, I'll contact you when I've found something." - and with that Barbara exited the call.

"Should we start heading out?" - Maria

"Yup, and here are your ID badges, don't lose them. I'll give our Batfam fake sightings, and lead them far away, then once you reach W.E I'll slowly start leading them closer to you." - Barbara

"Thanks, keep in touch if they decide to split up." - Maria

"Roger that." - Steph said giving a solute

•—–·–—•

Soon Multimouse and Harley are running over roof tops again, doing tricks, and stopping petty crimes, Barbara is leading the Batfam all over Gotham, and then they got to W.E, after Maria transformed back, they entered the building. Thanks to Babs, they entered without any problems and had free roam for the entire building, with some exceptions like new weapons designs, or the roof. They were hiding in the building for about an hour on the 7th floor when Barbara called in.

"Hey girls, you might want to be careful, I spotted some of Scarecrows goons a few blocks away, they seem to be heading in your direction, I'd say about 6mins tops until they reach W.E. Best to find a good room to stay in, or get out of there." - Barbara

"Thanks fawh de heads up Babs." - Harley

"Ok, we'll try to get out, let us know if we should turn back or not." - Maria

"Got it, and be careful." - Barbara

Maria and Harley then made their way back down, they were taking the stairs, because they figured it would be quicker, once they were on the second floor, they started to calmly make their way through the doors of the stairwell. That's when Scarecrows goons busted in, shouting for everyone to get down, Harley made sure to stay as close to Maria as possible as the goons gathered everyone to a wall. They were told to not move, talk, or do anything to anger them, once everyone was up against the wall, that's when Scarecrow came in. As he entered the room some of the employees started to look very scared, when Maria looked over to Harley, she saw her mouth 'it's ok', afterwards the goons had them all tied up and on the floor sitting down. Scarecrow scanned them before speaking.

"One of you will be testing my newest and most potent fear toxin as of yet. We can do this one out of two ways." He said lifting up two of his needle syringed fingers. "1. You can be a hero, and let yourself be my newest test subject, aka the boring way or 2. I pick whoever I want, aka the slightly less boring way. Now, who wants to go first?"

•—–· Over to Batman ·–—•

The Batfam was running around the other side of Gotham, now without Tony, because someone ( ehem Thor, ehem) was making a giant mess at Avengers Tower, and was fighting Loki... again. It was when they decided to call Oracle that things took another turn.

"Oracle have you foun- " - Batman

"They're at W.E. and Scarecrows there, I can't get in contact with them, and I can't get into the cameras at the moment, I need you to get your butts over there now!" - Oracle

"Wait you were in contact with them?!" - Red Hood

"Not the time! Just get over there before someone gets hurt!" - Oracle

"We're on our way." - Batman

They all then kicked it into high gear and were running to W.E, and out of everyone, Damian seemed to be the most visibly panicked, if him running twice as fast as everyone was any indication. At the speed they were going, they would be there in 20mins or less... hopefully.

•—–· Back to Maria and Harley ·–—•

So while Scarecrow was giving his little speech, Maria whispered into a plant to let Ivy know their situation, she wasn't able to get an answer before she and Harley were pulled away from the crowd.

"And what do we have here? Harley Quinn and a child. How interesting, well then, which one of you would like to test my new fear toxin?" - Scarecrow

"Eh, do me, I bet I got a lot o' trauma and fears from my time wit' Mistuh J. dat yuh would just love tuh see." - Harley

"... As tempting as that sounds I think I'll test it on your little friend here, after all, I know better than to mess with one of the Sirens." - As Scarecrow said that, one of the goons dragged Maria over to him. She didn't panic, she was actually really calm, which worried Harley even more because, remember all that emotional trauma she saw Maria had? Yeah, not the best match for the fear toxin.

As Scarecrow grabbed Maria, she locked eyes with Harley, and gave a brief smile before she felt a sharp jabbing pain in the side of her neck. Her vision went hazy, and from Harleys' point of view, she went a little limp from it.

As Maria started to see again she could hear screams, car alarms going off, and explosion in the distance, when she looked up, she saw them, her friends, her team... her family, they were all there lying infront of her... none of them moving, all of them were lifeless, looking as though turned into a gray husk of what they once were, and beside them were all the Kwamis, and their respective Jewelery, broken and shattered. She felt the tears fall as she looked around. Paris, the once beautiful city of lights, was now a wasteland, everything had a gray tone to it, people, animals, everything that had life... was dead.

And then she heard laughing, a sick disturbing laugh that was all to familiar... Lila. When she turned and saw Vulpina, she felt sick just looking at her.

"You have failed Maria, everyone you knew and loved is gone, all because you weren't here." - Lila

All she felt in that moment... was pure anger, she began to struggle, but somthing was holding her. She kept hearing that stupid laugh, and kept struggling harder and harder.

"You were never good enough, you were meant to always be our everyday Ladybug, but you never were, you never cared for us, and that's why, they're all gone, because you weren't good enough." - Lila

The last four words kept playing over and over in her head, until something clicked, she wasn't in Paris, so how did she get there? The last place she was at... was with Harley, she was in the W.E. building, and had fear toxin injected into her. As she came to that realization, she could hear the laughing fade just a bit, she closed her eyes and focused on finding everyone's souls, when she did, she saw that Scarecrow was right infront of her, a goon next to Harley, and a goon behind her, the other goons had left and were on the first floor. She snapped back when she heard Lilas' voice again.

"You always were stubborn and never accepted the real truth, as class president aren't you supposed to just roll over and do as you're told." - Lila

Maria was done listening to her, and decided to kick Lila in the face (since someone didn't think to tie up her ankles.)

"Just go rott in hell already you lieing fox!" - Maria

Maria didn't get any answer, all she knew was that she hit whatever was really infront of her hard. Maria then heard Lilas' voice morph into a heavier, more distorted voice.

"That's a first, guess I'll have to increase the dosage." - Scarecrow

She then felt another jabbing pain in her neck, all she could do was scream from the pain, her head was spinning, and all she could hear was laughing, sickening laughter that came from both Lila, and now Hawkmoth. One thing Scarecrow didn't account for, was the deep hatred Maria held for both individuals he made her see. Because soon after he gave her more fear toxin she got her footing, pushing back into the goon behind her before using the goons' grib on her to do a half backflip into kicking the guys face in, quickly knocking the goon out, when she stood back up she only saw Hawkmoth, surrounded by her lifeless team and family, she only saw red, and charge right at him. She kept punching and roundhouse kicking him, giving one final charge, ramming into Hawkmoth before she felt weightless. She never heard the panicked scream Harley let out, she never heard the shouts that came from the Batfam just reaching the second floor, before she hit something... something rapped around her holding her from falling any further, causing her to start thrashing around thinking it was Hawkmoth, before seeing he was also grabbed by something. She struggled ignoring the slight pain that went through her harms and legs. She slowly calmed down as she felt her feet touch the ground again, she then saw another Hawkmoth that was now mixed with Lila hug her, she tried to break free, but realized that it wasn't Lila or Hawkmoth... It was calming, and her voice was gentle, it was Ivy. She only heard a few words, that's when she felt something blow on her face, and after a few seconds, she lost conscientiousness.

Harley came sprinting down and was by Ivys' side in less than a minute. Ivy could tell Harley was worried and joined her in hugging a now sleeping Maria.

"I'm sawhry Ives, It all just happened so fast, and she was so awesome at kickin' Cranes @ss, I din't get her out of dere quick enough." - Harley said as she looked Ivy in the eyes, with tears threatening to escape.

"It's alright Harley, none of this is your fault." - Ivy replied comfortingly to Harley

As the two hugged Maria Batman came over.

"We'll take it from here." - Batman

"Hell no. We ain't leavin' her side." - Harley

Batman just let out a sigh, after he dealt with Scarecrow and his goons, Batman, along with his sons, Ivy and Harley, all headed back to the Bat-cave where the other girls and Alfred were waiting.

If anyone noticed Robin looking over to Maria with a concerned look, they just ignored it, and continued their way back home.

One day, I’m going to draw Tako/Mr. Parodius with his wife Noriko. I don’t know if Noriko has ever been in official artwork of Parodius, but if not, I’m going to attempt to draw her as how I envision her to look like.

#parodius #to draw list #only parodius fans will know what i'm talking about #hopefully i'll get my butt in gear and actually draw them

howdy! i am doing a research project for my ceramics class on artists we are inspired by, and i really love your work, so I chose you! everything you make is just so wonderful and hopefully next time you stock your shop i’ll be able to grab a cool little guy. i have a few questions for my project if that’s okay with you!

how long have you been working with ceramics?

what kind of kiln do you use?

do you know of any good places to learn more about sgraffito? i’d like to learn more about it but many of the sources i’ve found are not very descriptive :(

thanks for your time and for sharing your art!

Hello! Thank you so much for picking me for this project - I'm totally honoured! Here are my answers:

I started in late 2019 when I took a wheel class at a local pottery studio, which turned into another wheel class, which turned into also taking a class about creative handbuilding, which lead to me getting approved as a studio member (in October 2020 once the studio re-opened) so I could make things at home & bring them in to the studio for firing. So it's been about 2.25yrs since I started setting up my home ceramics practice!

I fire with a friend (who does all the kiln tech stuff, thank goodness, tho she does let me load then kiln when I show up with a batch of beasts, a task I find simultaneously soothing & terrifying), so I don't know all the specs of the kiln, but it's electric & appears to be Skutt brand based on the photos I have (see below). I'm sorry I don't know more about it!

I learned about sgraffito from my first wheel class teacher (a lovely bonus - it wasn't part of the class' curriculum!), and figured out how to make my own dyed slip using this tutorial, which I found pretty straightforward. I am planning on making my own sgraffito guide in the future...just need to get my butt in gear and actually put everything together!! I'll post it on my tumblr once I get it done, I promise. If you have a bigger library nearby (or a library with access to a larger library network), you might also be able to find pottery books that discuss sgraffito? It's worth a look!

Again, thank you for your fabulous questions & I hope your ceramics class is a wonderful experience!

10-16-2021

I have a bunch of chores to do, but I'm just taking a second to eat breakfast and watch "The End of Evangelion". Autumn always makes me think of Evangelion because that's the time of year it was when Austin and Mady first introduced me to the show years ago. It's not really fall unless I've re-watched Eva... just a bit :p

I stayed up late last night sorting the piles of junk that used to be in my closet. It's a big job. Cleaning is always a bigger undertaking than I expect it to be. I'm trying to at least get a couple boxes together to take to Goodwill this afternoon. That's harder than I thought it would be. Like, I have this huge container of stuffed animals. I love a lot of them, but there some that I really just can't see myself using or decorating with anytime soon. When I was in college, my roommate and I thought we were masters of the Claw Machine. We used to attack the one at Meijers; one of us would operate the lever while the other person gave directions from the side. We almost always won something. I still have all of those stuffed animals. I feel like I was keeping them just in case anyone ever asked me to prove my claw machine prowess in college. You know what? I doubt that I'll ever actually have to do that. So I'm saying goodbye to most of them. Saying goodbye is exactly why it feels like. Ever since I was a kid, I've had this naturally animistic sense I about things. I always feel like inanimate objects are alive somehow. I don't literally believe that, but I feel it. Even if I don't feel particularly attached to an item, I still feel like giving it up is like parting with a friend. Plus, items hold memories. I touch them and I can recall scenes from the time in my life when I got that item. I know that I have to clean the junk out of my house. I WANT to clean the junk out of my house... but it's definitely an emotional process. This morning, I was doing some yoga with only my Halloween light turned on. I realized why I feel so compelled to undergo this material cleansing process right now. The death-y time of year really is about letting go. We celebrate the harvest and the experience of receiving abundance, then we have to acknowledge that the crops have to die so that they can grow again in the coming year. I feel like I've had so much good fortune in the past few months, but now I need to say goodbye to certain things in my life so that I can have room to grow. It's kind of a perfect time of year to clean and get rid of stuff, honestly. We all know about spring cleaning, but I say we make fall cleaning a thing! Tonight, Austin and I are going to a Haunted House and I'm excited! Hopefully the place won't be too crowded. I love doing Midwestern Autumn things and I definitely don't think I've scratched my spooky itch enough yet this year... despite building a whole cemetery in my yard :p But yeeeah, I had better get my butt in gear if I want to accomplish everything I need to before I have to go. I swear I need one of those time turners from Harry Potter sometimes.

Ayyy, so I did manage for finish writing that Lucky Vampire AU tonight, so I guess it's time to work on Poker Pair next???

I set another low goal for August, the same goal I had for July. I figured since I managed to write over 17k words last month, I should try again this. We're starting off strong.

Hopefully, I'll be able to burn through these short stories and then get back to A Beautiful Mess. I have a fair amount of chapters written out ahead or schedule, but I'm quickly closing the gap (even with my 1x month posting schedule). I really hope I can light a fire under my butt and get back into gear.

#personal #kitty bandit writes fanfiction #I'll let that lucky fic sit a few days before editing it #then i'll likely post it this month #i don't think i can hold out until halloween #also i need validation ROFL

Forget Me Not Jim Mason xReader 50 First Dates AU Pt 4

@michael-langdon-appreciation

Y/N still wasn’t a hundred percent sure it was the right thing, but damn if having Jim Mason shower attention on her wasn't a huge turn-on.

Jim carried her mom's old rocking chair from the porch into the baby's room. The worn wood under her fingers like a touchstone as she stroked it. "You can't go spending money I don't have."

"I’m not." The grin he shot her was far too cocky and adorable. "I'm spending my money that I do have, to fix up the baby's room."

"Jim..."

He rose to his feet and snuck next to her chair. Trapping her wrists under his fingers, he moved in close. "Do you have any idea how much I earned per hour up north?"

The words whispered past her ears. Nearly as intoxicating as the heat of his breath caressing her cheek as he leaned over her. Y/N met his gaze-determined not to look away. "Doesn't matter. I still don't want you spending lots of money. It makes me uncomfortable."

They hung there for a moment, nearly close enough to touch. One small rock was all it would take to have their lips meet. Y/N held herself completely immobile to avoid being the one to make the first move.

When he straightened, relief and disappointment wrestled for top billing. Jim nodded a slow dip of his head. "I can respect that, but there’s a difference between me feeling obligated to spend money I don't have, and being pleased to spend money I do. So let me know what you feel comfortable with, and I'll try not to push you too far, too fast."

"Ahh." The light went on in his eyes. Jim waggled his brows. "Only if we were teenagers. Now? We're grown-ups. I get to move a little faster."

Oh Lordy. Y/N's breathing kicked into higher gear. Jon adjusted position until he held her chin in his fingers.

"Hmmm." His thumb caressed her lower lip. "You said we haven’t even had a first kiss." She made an attempt to speak, but no sound emerged. Instead, she licked her lips and tried not to hold her breath. Passing out would be a bad idea right now because she really, really wanted to kiss him. Jim's gaze danced over her face. "I suppose this is as good a time as any ..."

Y/N couldn't agree more. She sat motionless as Jim leaned toward her, slowly bringing their lips into contact. A gentle caress of his lips over hers with increasing warmth, increasing pressure. She found her fingers threading their way through his hair, and she was no longer reclining against the back of the couch. No, she was forward on the couch, trying to get as close as possible.

The kiss continued as Jim teased his tongue along her lips, briefly dipping into her mouth before taking everything up a notch. Y/N was no longer warm, she was on fire. His lips left her mouth to dust a series of kisses along her jaw. Teeth nibbled at her earlobe, his tongue delicately tracing the curves of her ear. A shiver shook her from top to bottom as she luxuriated in his careful attention.

Slowly she became aware how tight a clutch she had on his shoulders, desperately tugging him back in an attempt to reconnect their lips. She found herself being lifted then lowered into his lap, their torsos touching while pleasure wrapped around them like a cozy blanket. She was enjoying herself far too much to protest. Especially when she slid her hands up his chest, palms directly over his rapidly beating heart.

She wanted more. Wanted to straddle him and be able to feel the hardness now nestled against her butt cheek. She wished that solid bit would make contact with other parts of her anatomy. Parts that would very much appreciate more pressure. With one hand he still controlled her head, lining them up so their lips could mesh perfectly.

“Y/N,” he breathed past her cheek as they separated barely an inch. "Mmm. You taste as good as I remember."

She worked to settle her breathing. "I kind of liked it myself."

Then she laughed as Jim pulled his phone from his pocket and clicked on his camera. He grinned at her briefly.

"Jim Mason, what’re you doing?"

"I'm making memories," he said. "And I want proof." He lifted his hand in the air and twisted the camera toward them. A click sounded, and her amusement grew. Selfies. Too funny.

He pulled the phone close and showed her the picture. Her cheeks were flushed, and his eyes glowed with heat. They looked as if they’d been interrupted in the middle of a heavy make-out session, which ...hello.

Y/N was still sitting in his lap. "I can have my second kiss now?"

He tucked away his phone then rested his hand carefully on her thigh, rubbing his thumb back and forth. "I might even be able to work on the third and fourth."

Jim FOUGHT FOR CONTROL. The urge to sweep Y/N up and carry her to the bedroom was strong. They had done that the last time with rather spectacular results, but also incredible consequences. This was not the time for a reenactment of that evening, no matter how much his body wished for one.

Instead, he took it slowly. Appreciated the opportunity to reconnect with Y/N and hopefully in the process produce some memories. If not of what they had done before, memories for the future.

5 years ago P.V High….

Jim was sitting outside at the picnic tables during lunch with Chad and Alex, Y/N had just moved to Palos Verdes with her family her father's job had transferred him.

//l think she's is from Wisconsin, l wanted to go up to her...

...but l was kind of off my game. But, man, was she cute, though.

l like your laugh. But more so I liked you making me laugh.//

But now here we are and since Y/N has had an accident she has no memory of life before, of us ever meeting.

But right now his thoughts were far more on Y/N the lover, than Y/N the mother-to-be. How far was too far?

His body screamed for him to let a lot more happen. To explore the soft curves under his hands. To use his tongue and lips to see if his memories matched up with the reality he now held. His mind told him to take it slower.

The sounds she made were not helping. Little gasps of pleasure. Long, low moans that traveled down his spine and reverberated in his balls.

Y/N lifted herself, swinging her leg across him to resettle in his lap. She was basically straddling him, and his imagination went wild on all the things the position would allow them to do.

Bright eyes gazed into his as she rested her forearms on his shoulders. She smiled, a dimple appearing in one cheek.

"I’m trying really hard not to get carried away," Jim admitted.

"I know." Y/N leaned in and grabbed on tight, giving him a huge bear hug. "And I really appreciate it."

They sat like that for a moment, Jim drawing his fingers over her back as he planned the next best move.

Oh, Lordy, the images that flooded her brain were far too triple X. Naked Jim. All the long, hard muscles she was currently leaning against glistening with water fresh out of a shower. Or better yet, slick from a hard workout, muscles pumped up and heated.

In spite of Y/N's frustrations, there were a few silver linings beginning to appear. "Hey, Jim. Did you know I could draw?"

"Hmm, you going to draw me sometime?" At that she couldn't help but smile.

"You look as if you like that idea." Jim leaned closer and whispered by her ear, "You want it, you got it. Need to explore this new talent of yours, and I'm game to be of service any way I can."

Not only did it appear she had miraculously learned how to draw overnight, but his words threw her into a sexual heat wave-the images far too vivid.

Y/N grew motionless, just staring. "You okay?" Jim cradled her close, caught up in her reaction.

She scooted closer to him and cuddled up, something inside dared to come alive.

Jim worked to keep his breathing even, relishing the contact between them.

He couldn’t stop himself. His hand joined hers, linking their fingers and putting the warmth of her belly against his knuckles

She squeezed his fingers, but didn't say anything. She curled her fingers around his back as she leaned in and hugged him.

She leaned in slowly to kiss him,highlighting the growing connection between them. Giving a touch of herself in offering, expecting something from him in return.

What he gave her was control. Instead of turning the softness into a ravishing, he kept his hands from roaming and concentrated on kissing her. At least he did until she caught his fingers and tugged. Pressed his palm against her breast and held it there.

She had nothing on under the T-shirt, and her nipple tightened, poking his palm as their lips continued to meet. He went with it, stroking gently, cupping the full round and teasing her nipple with his thumb until she arched toward him.

God, the noises she made as he kissed his way down her neck. He twisted her against the couch and jerked up her shirt, exposing her breasts.

Exploring all her soft skin was not a hardship. The only thing hard was his cock, imprisoned behind his jeans where he fully intended on keeping it for another night.

This was about touching Y/N. Seeing the changes in her body since the last time they’d been together. Delighting in the opportunity to be with her physically.

Making memories.

He kissed the top of her soft curves held in his hand, pausing to glance into her eyes. Y/N's mouth hung slightly open as her breathing quickened.

"You're so beautiful."

She smiled, and he dipped his head to kiss her lips quickly before returning to torment her nipple. A lick around the tip, a gentle blow of air until it tightened. Pregnancy gave her skin a flush and increased the size of her breasts.

"Oh. Oh, careful."

He gently rolled the tip with his tongue. "More sensitive."

"You're making me wet without even touching my pussy," Y/N confessed.

"I'll pet your pussy later." As long as she was squirming with pleasure he was doing something right.

Unexpectedly, Y/N took control. She wiggled out of her sweatpants and lay back on the couch, pulling him over her. Only this time she directed his hand over her belly and between her legs. Jim smiled against her lips as he stroked the narrow line of elastic. "You're a lot bolder these days. I like it."

"Shut up and kiss me,” Y/N demanded, but she was smiling as well.

The kissing was easy. Nothing soft anymore, he consumed her hungrily. Stroked and tasted and took in every one of her gasps and moans like a symphony of lust.

At the same time he slipped his fingers under the edge of her panties, forcing the fabric to one side so he could ease between her folds into slick wetness.

"Oh, yes." She pressed up into his hand.

"Eager." He wasn’t going to wait. But slow was good for another reason-this time to bring her to the point of maximum pleasure. One finger parted her carefully, easing inside her tight passage. His thumb centered over her clit with gentle pressure as she clutched his head and pulled him back far enough she could stare into his eyes.

A second finger joined the first. Her face registered the additional pressure, and she widened her legs. Her tongue slipped out to wet her lips, and her breathing sped up as he moved a little quicker, fingertips curled slightly to find the spot he wanted. Again and again he thrust into her, checking her response, loving how she accepted the pleasure and soaked it in. Embraced it, and with one swoop, exploded in climax, her body squeezing his fingers tightly as her eyes closed.

"Jim."

"Hmm, nice." He slowed his touch. Took her down easily as her body continued to shake from her orgasm. "God, you're beautiful when you come."

She melted onto the couch, boneless relaxation overtaking her. "What now?" Y/N asked, all flushed and warm.

"Now you get dressed, and I'll tuck you into bed."

It obviously wasn’t what she expected to hear. Y/N damn near pouted. "Alone?"

He nodded. "This time."

"When is next time? Soon?"

His body ached. "Very soon, but this is about more than sex, Y/N. We're memory making. Finding out more about each other. Let's not rush too fast."

"Uh-uh. You said soon. So, while yes to those other things, I think soon should mean soon. Promise?" Y/N pulled her clothing back into line as ordered, but she still looked wonderfully near ravished as she stumbled to her feet.

He shot upward to steady her. Anticipation of growing closer in so many ways thrilled him more than he could say.

"I promise." When she was ready, he would be as well. Oh, hell yeah.
