Council Hall

Media The Maze Runner

Character Newt

Couple Newt X Reader

Rating Flirty

Y/n lays in her hammock her blanket over her head trying to block the sun that had already peaked over the top of the walls of the maze, but she refuses to get up, far too snuggled in her hammock with her shoes and clothes in a pile below the hammock, left wearing only her oversized boy's hoodie and her cotton panties, only the top of her hair sticking out the top of her blanket, Y/n is the only girl in the glade and has been here a year and a half fairly comfortable and use to the way the glade operated,

Newt Approached the homestead and Y/n's hammock, a smile escaped his lips as he looked over her, He walked over to her hammock, and his footsteps made a soft thud on the soft earth. He took the blanket in his hand and pulled it down letting the morning light illuminate her face.

She groans and grumbles turning her body away from him and the sunlight,

Newt chuckles and looks at her with a smirk. His voice is low and affectionate. "Wake up, sleepy head."

"Noooo," She whined,

Newt chuckled again, "Come on, lazy bones, you know we gotta get to the meeting soon."

"The meeting can happen without me not like Alby lets me say anything..." She whined tucking the blanket up and back over her face,

"I’m sure you’ll say something if you want to. Alby is a pretty understanding guy, and you should come, it’s almost time, and we can’t be late…" Newt smiled softly,

"Noooo," She whined,

"Aww come on, we gotta be there. It’s an important meeting, and don’t worry, this time I’m sure you’ll get to say something, I’ll even make sure that Alby hears ya!" He cooed,

"No." She pouts childishly,

"Come on please, for me?" He pouted,

"You can't just say that every time you want something Newt,"

" I can and will." he smirked, "And I’m telling you right now that I want you to be at the meeting."

"... but my tummy hurts,"

"Does it now? why does your tummy hurt?"

"The moon and my womb have cursed me,"

"Oh please, your period isn’t that bad to complain about."

"You shank! My whole body is ripping itself to shreds right now! I have every right to complain," She complained,

" Yeah, right. You’re just being dramatic." He laughed crossing his arms over his chest,

"dramatic! I'd like to see you when your body floods with hormones that make you wanna cry one minute and scream with rage the next when you have boobs that have doubled in size and are now so sore you don't dare touch them when your body decides to rip out your flesh crush it up and them cramp your whole lower body to force it out of you though a hole so small you can't even fit your hand."

Newt's expression goes serious and soft. He feels sorry for her "… I take it back" he gulped, He then softly took her by the hand even if she was still under her blanket "I am sorry I shouldn’t have poked fun at you like that. I didn’t think it was that bad."

"yeah, and that's not even adding headaches, backache, vomiting, loss of appetite and the inability to klunk,"

Newt is speechless. He doesn’t know what to say. He is looking into her eyes, seeing her in a whole different light now, after thinking about everything she’s going through every month, he feels so bad for her. "...Bloody Hell,"

"so yeah. I'm not exactly in the mood to hear Alby yell at the runners for wanking in the showers again. I'd rather just lay and die until it's over,"

" So, every month, this happens? And how long does it usually last?"

"four to seven days,"

"And it’s every month right?"

"Every 28 days."

His face is filled with concern, he feels so bad for her now. He just stares at her for a moment, letting the thought soak in. "And you have been here for how long?"

"a year and a half and yes. It does this every. single. month."

"Ohh my god... that's actually insane. I am so so sorry y/n."

"It's fine," She sighed, "such is the life of a woman,"

"Ohh shut up y/n," he joked,

"don't tell me to shut up... Seems unwise when I could very easily throw up in you right now. Or bleed on you. Whichever you'd find more frightening,"

Newt laughs A genuine laugh, "His voice is slightly amused when he says I think I’d rather you throw up on me, blood just scares the hell out of me."

"Then I'll bleed on you,"

"oh really? Is that your best threat?"

"It's all I have... Newt do I have to go to the stupid meeting? Can't I just go and lay in a hot bath for like... A week?"

"No, you gotta go to the meeting. I am not letting you miss out on the meeting, if you wanna lay in a hot bath for the whole time after the meeting then fine, but you’re going to that damn meeting."

"Fine..." she whined as she pulled the blanket off her and climbed out of her hammock, she grabbed her bra slipped it on under her hoodie and slipped up her denim shorts slipping on her shoes, "do I have to?" She whined holding her stomach,

"Yes, you have to. Just try and keep your cool for the meeting, and I know it’s gonna be tough for you but I'll help as much as I can love,"

"newt?" she whined,

"Yeah, Y/n?"

"Would you carry me?" She whined opening her arms,

"You want me to carry you?" He smirked,

"Mhm,"

"...C'mere," He rolled his eyes he grabbed her softly and lifted her in his arms carrying her like his own personal princess, The feeling of holding her close made his heartbeat speed up. he carries her in his arms, holding her close as he makes his way to the meeting. she nuzzles into his hoodie slipping her hands in his pockets and almost falling asleep in his arms The sensation of her brings comfort and peace to his mind and he is reluctant to put her down and break this wonderful moment of closeness they are sharing.

Once arriving at the council hall he tries to set her down but she won't let go of him she clings to him so he simply rolls his eyes and sits down keeping her with him she moves slightly to sit on his thigh her head on his chest struggling to keep her eyes open, Newts hands wrap around her as he notices how much pain she is in, as well as trying to comfort her. His heart begins to beat faster and his breath grows shallow as he lets her snuggle her head against his neck, her nuzzling just making him want to pull her even closer. Their bodies almost fit perfectly together and the feeling of her laying her head against him brings an urge to run his hands through her hair, but he resists.

Alby coughs getting everyone's attention and starting on the meeting, Newt's body goes into autopilot as his attention is divided by Y/n clinging to him and Alby starting the meeting. He is looking at Y/n, concerned about her and trying not to think about how much pain she is in. His whole world suddenly seems to narrow down to only Y/n and nothing else. Alby is talking about the food supply and how the crops this month have been lacking and how they are going to have to stretch their rations a little longer. Newt's eyes are only half listening, half watching Y/n. She is almost asleep again from the pain she's in but she nuzzles closer to Newt finding comfort in his grass-like scent and dirty skin, in the middle of the meeting she moves and pressed a kiss into his jaw before she burrowed her nose into the crook of his neck luckily everyone was listening to Alby so didn't notice

Newt's heart rate suddenly speeds up and his body freezes as his cheeks turn a bright red, but he forces himself to stay calm and remain stoic. The sensation of her lips brushing against his skin and her nuzzling into his neck sends an overwhelming surge of desire through him. He struggles to keep the urge away and not lean down or pull her closer. The feeling to kiss her and running his hands through her hair was so strong, but he still resisted. Newt's breath grows shallow and he feels his heartbeat racing.

Newts hands tightly hold Y/n’s back and his thumb massages her back while he thinks about her lips brushing against his skin. He cannot stop his desire from wanting to kiss her and pull her closer but he still resists and forces the urge away. He tries not to think about it but his heart is pounding with desire and the feeling that he wants more only grows the longer he thinks about it. However he forces himself to remain stoic, with his head still up and listening to what Alby is saying. The whole time his heart is beating like never before.

Newts mind was on a completely different track than the meeting. All he could think about was Y/n pressed up against him, and how he wanted to drag his fingers through her hair. A sensation of warmth grows in his stomach and his heartbeat begins to speed up more and more. He wants this meeting to end so he can take her back to the dormitory and lay down with her and maybe kiss her. But he snaps his head back up as he hears the silence and Alby asking if anyone has anything else to add. Newts attention is back on the meeting.

Once the meeting is done everyone heads out leaving only Newt and Y/n, as he sits there he is filled with the desire, he wants to kiss her so damn much but he doesn't move even if he has the urge too,

Y/n has her head buried into his neck and she clings to his body desperately like her life depends on it. Her body is so small in his arms that he feels like he could pick her up and throw her over his shoulder if he really wanted to. The fact that he could have easily man-handled her, and he feels this urge grow inside him to just pick her up and hold her more tightly. Even if it was just for a moment it would feel so good to pick her up and just have her body pressed against him, she nuzzles even closer stroking his hoodie like a blanket giving his neck small nibbles.

The feeling of her nibbling at his neck makes his breath catch and he can feel his heart skipping a beat. Newts breath is shallow and he can feel his heartbeat racing. He is trying to hold back his desire to pull her close and kiss her. He wants to run his hands in her hair and feel her body pressed against him but he won’t do it. His hands are tight and locked around her. He is starting to sweat in his hoodie as he is heating up from the intensity of the urge.

He feels her soft breath on his neck as she is nuzzled up close against him. The urge inside him is almost too much to bare. he thinks about how soft and tender she feels in his hands. Every part of him is wanting to take her head in his hands and just kiss her deeply. He notices her stroking his hoodie with her fingers. He is starting to want this moment to last just a bit longer.

He looks down at her, watching the way her hand strokes his hoodie softly and how she nuzzled her head even closer against his neck. The sensation of her soft body pressed against his is such a contrast to how hard and rough his body is. He feels his heartbeat pick up more and more and a heat is growing in his body that is slowly beginning to feel unbearable.

Suddenly she moves in her sleepy painfilled state and gives his cheek a kiss "thank you for taking care of me newt,"

her kiss on his cheek catches a surge of emotion in him and his body suddenly tightens and he feels his breath catch. His heart beats harder and faster as his body begins to feel all the desires growing inside him. He tries to contain the feeling but when she whispers thank you he can feel his eyes begin to grow moist. He looks down at her beautiful face and his eyes grow heavy and hot as the desire inside him grows.

He suddenly feels his body acting on its own accord, his body suddenly leans closer and he pulls her into a kiss, but at the last second, he pulls back.

His body heats up and he is filled with shame. He knows he has to resist. For a moment all the desire and urge inside him is just pure pleasure and bliss but when he pulls away he suddenly feels ashamed and disappointed with his actions. He looks away to avoid looking in her eyes and can’t bring himself to look at her.

"what did I miss?" She sits up and yawned

newt clears his throat and rubs the back of his neck feeling a little bit ashamed of himself. He smiles nervously as he looks away, not wanting to catch her eyes “uhm…” he stares down at his hands “What did you miss…?”

"mhm what did I miss? What did Alby have that was so important?"

Newt's face is flushed red now as he continues avoiding her eyes. “he was… talking about stuff…”

"stuff. You got me out of my cosy hammock... For stuff?" she asked and he nodded "fine... What are you so blushy about?"

he still looks away from her and takes a deep breath “I am not blushy.”

"you look like a strawberry newt. What's going on? Did you get a telling off or something?"

his face is still extremely red and he continues avoiding her eyes “no… it’s nothing.”

"newt. Tell me. Or I will throw up in you"

he lets out a sigh and looks back at her, he is still avoiding her eyes “I… well… I might of tried to kiss you…. At the meeting.”

"you... Did what now?" she glared,

he finally looks her in the eyes as he takes a deep breath “I tried to kiss you.”

"on the lips?'

his whole face lights up red when he thinks about the moment again and nods his head “on the lips.”

"and?"

his jaw clamps down and he starts to feel heat all over his body from the embarrassment “and I was gonna pull you even closer… but I pulled back.”

"I see..."

his words catch in his throat and he is feeling very uncomfortable looking at her, he takes a deep shaky breath and looks back at his hands “Im really sorry I don’t know what got into me, it was a moment of weakness and I -"

she moved and pressed a soft kiss to his lips stopping his words, he blinks in surprise as she suddenly gives his lips a little kiss. His body heats up again and this time he cannot stop himself from pulling her closely to him and kissing her again, this time with more force and passion than before. His body is feeling all the desire and urge growing inside him again and his hands are caressing her back and neck. Newt's heart is thumping loudly inside his chest and he is breathing heavily.

the feel of her kisses brings a tingling sensation to every place they have contact and is lighting up his body with desire. He can feel his pulse quicken and his breath grow shallow as he pulls her closer and continues the kiss. Newt's hands begin to roam the curves of her body and he is starting to feel like he is losing control. His tongue brushes against hers and he starts to feel an overwhelming urge to pull her closer and closer.

She happily separated her lips she happily separated her lips letting his tounge battle with her own her hands happily stroking his chest, playing with his hoodie even trailing as high as his neck and the bottom of his hair the feel of her lips and tongue against his ignites a fire all over his body and he feels his body heating up from the rising desire. His hands begin to roam down her legs and he is starting to lose himself in the kiss. The feeling inside him grows more and more overwhelming and the kissing becomes even more intense. Newt's mind blanks as his body is filled with lust.

PT.2 GHOST X GN READER SLOW BURN

Please tell me if there's any mistake it would be the greatest. Also sorry it took a while to post. I got real lazy hahahhah.

I unpacked my belongings, and let out a sigh of relief. I look at the clock. “Christ lunch already? Good, I'm starving.” I quickly make my way towards the lunch hall. Everyone is sitting and joking around with their friends. Suddenly, someone with a mohawk makes his way towards me.

"You, the new recruit, ain't you'?" He smiles as he pats my shoulder, like he's greeting an old friend.

"Yeah, I guess I am, huh?” I smiled back at him and let out a small chuckle at his Scottish accent.

“John Macktavish, but you can call me Soap! Follow me; I'll introduce you to Gaz!” He starts walking away and leads me to a table with someone else sitting there, which I assume is Gaz.

“Gaz,” Soap speeds up his walking. “Look at the new recruit!” He gestures towards me as I finally catch up to him.

“Hello…I guess.” I wave and shrug awkwardly.

“Hi, Kyle Garrick, call me Gaz.” He waves back.

“Alright, Gaz.” I say

Soap sits down and pats the spot next to him. "Well, I'm sure you've met Ghost.”

“I have…he's..” Before I respond, Soap cuts me off.

“Let me guess, broody?” He says in a matter-of-fact way, followed by a laugh.

I laugh at his words, “Right on the money!”

“He's not heartless; you just have to wait for him to warm up, ain't that right, Gaz?” He looks toward his friend for approval.

“You're making him seem like some snake,” he replies back, “but yeah, he's not too bad to be around.” He shakes his head as he talks.

"Hmph, I'll say he called me a ‘twat when I first saw him." I laugh remembering the insult. Gaz and Soap laugh at the comment as well.

Gaz speaks up. “You'll get used to him, trust me, you'll be fine.”

“You sure? I won't be surprised if he kills me or something.” I shake my head and chuckle.

"Noooo, I'm sure you'll actually be his favorite. Just watch and wait.” Soap pats my back. “I'm sure you'll get along well!” Suddenly, heavy footsteps approach, and we all look behind us to find Ghost walking towards us.

“Who's favorite?” Ghost asks with a glare.

"Nothing, LT, just getting to know the new recruit.” Soap shrugs as he starts eating his meal, which is when I realize I never grabbed my damn food.

"Shit, I forgot my food.” I sigh and stand up. “I'll be back. I need to grab a meal.”

I hear Ghost scoff before mumbling “dumbass.” under his breath. (Bastard fr) I grab my meal and return to the table. Ghost barely acknowledges me, and I don't pay him any attention either. Later in the day, training starts, and it feels like hell.

“Holy shit I'm going to die, aren't I?” I grumble and wipe my forehead, and sweat basically covers my whole body.

“Don't know what Price saw in you if you can barely handle a basic workout.” I hear a voice from behind. I turn around, and I am met with Ghost.

I glared daggers at him before responding, “who knows?” I shrug my shoulders and continue to workout. I can feel Ghost stare at me like he's trying to kill me. I'd probably be dead if looks could actually kill. Hours later, when the workout finally ends, I head to the shower room. As I leave the shower room, I pass by Price's office, and I hear a few voices. I decided to be nosey and listen for a little.

I hear Ghost's voice talking to Price, and I make out some words: “Why do we need someone like them? They can barely handle the workout.” His voice is sharp, and he sounds pissed.

Price responds calmly, like he's already been through this multiple times. “They're a great asset to have, and trust me, you'll warm up to them soon.”

“Doubt that,” I hear Ghost scoff, “they're just dead weight at this point.” I roll my eyes as I hear Ghost complain, and I assume he's complaining about me.

I start walking back to the barracks and decide it's better to just ignore Ghost and decide to hopefully one day get on his good side. "Ugh, I'm not going to last,” I say as I lay down on my cot. I rub my eyes and decide it's better to get rest rather than think about stupid things.

~~next day~~

I wake up to the annoying alarm and quickly turn it off. I stretch my arms, popping my joints. “Wow, what a beautiful morning.” I say to myself sarcastically as I get up and prepare for breakfast. I make it to the lunch hall, and Soap waves me over to sit with him, Gaz, Price, and Ghost. I sit down next to Gaz, and he passes me a breakfast tray he saved for me. “Thanks Gaz.”

“No problem, C/N,” he says with a smile.

Price speaks up. “so? How is the base? Up to your standards?” He said in a joking tone.

“It's more than I expected.” I laugh. I notice Ghost is still quiet and cold as ever. I turn to look at him. “Had a good sleep?”

He glares before answering, "It would be better if you weren't here.”

I put my hand up to show my innocence: “no need for the hostility.”

Soap looks at Ghost and chuckles, “Someone woke up on the wrong side of the bed.” He laughs trying to lighten the mood.

“Shut it, Johnny.” He says sternly.

“Just sayin,” he responds with a smirk.

~~Time skip to the afternoon~~~ (wow I'm so good at this/jk)

After breakfast, I head to the shooting range and practice my shots. After a couple of hours, I decided to leave the shooting range and do something else. As I start to clean up and pack my belongings, Ghost approaches me.

“Price wants us for a meeting in 5 minutes.” He says sternly before turning and walking away.

“Yes sir.” I mumble. I finish packing and cleaning up and head to the meeting room. Ghost, Soap, Gaz, Price, and a woman who looks like she's ready to tell us some life-changing shit.

“Nice to meet you, y/n l/n; I'm Laswell.” She gives a slight smile.

“Nice to meet you too.” I respond back quickly and come to the conclusion that she's probably the head of the 141 team.

"Well, let's get to the point. There's a mission you guys need to do to gather some valuable Intel. It is very important that it goes perfectly, so Ghost and C/N will be paired while the others provide support. I expect the utmost best on this mission." She looks around, making sure everyone understands the importance of the mission.

"Yes, ma'am,” everyone replies in unison.

“I'll be in contact.” She says and quickly leaves. She seems to be very busy.

Price speaks before anyone can say anything: “You guys heard her. We'll leave for the mission tomorrow at 0100 hours. I expect everyone to be ready. You'll have the rest of the day to rest up and prepare.”

“Yes sir.”

~2330~~

Everyone is in the meeting room, discussing the mission. I look at everyone. 'Hopefully I won't die’ I think to myself. Ghost suddenly spoke, snapping me out of my thoughts. “you sure they're ready? They're already daydreaming.” Ghost voice is teasing, and it's pissing me off.

“At least I have an imagination.” I say without thinking, and everyone stares at me in surprise. “Oops…sorry…” I try to avoid everyone's eyes.

Ghost rolls his eyes as Price speaks, “Just get along and don't fuck up this mission or your arses will be the ones to blame, got that?”

“Yes sir.” Me and Ghost respond. I see Soap and Gaz laughing at us. It finally reached 0100 hours, and we all got into the helicopter. We arrive on the mission, and we hide in the forest, waiting for an opportunity to get inside.

“Don't forget you two; don't screw up." Price glares at us, making sure we get the message.

He sends us into the building, and I stay close behind Ghost. We hid around the building, awaiting the signal to continue. I look at Ghost before speaking. “Why are you such an ass?”

Ghost stares at me before responding, “why are you such an annoying prick? Hmm?” He rolls his eyes as we finally get the signal to continue.

“Christ…” I scoff. We make our way through the building, hiding and killing people if they pose a threat. Suddenly, an enemy soldier runs towards Ghost and attempts to stab him before he could stab Ghost. I shot him in the heart. “Are you okay?” I ask Ghost

“The greatest I've ever been.” He answers without acknowledging that I just saved his arse. I roll my eyes, and we finally arrive where the Intel is stored. “Grab the Intel c/n I'll keep a lookout.” He says sternly as he gets ready to fight, just in case.

“Alright…” I quickly grab the Intel and gather it into a vanilla folder. "Okay, let's go!” Ghost leads the way, and we make it back to the others.

“You guys get along?” Soap asks as he elbows Ghost in a joking manner.

“Good enough.” He says as we all start walking back to the exfile location.

~~back at base~~

I take a shower in warm water, and the feeling makes me sigh in relief. I finish the needed shower and make my way to the mess hall. I look in the fridge and notice a tray with a note stuck to it; it reads, ‘didn't want to leave you starve, so saved some food- Soap :).’ I chuckle at Soap's smiley face. I heat it up and sit down at a table. I start eating my food peacefully, and I hear heavy footsteps walking towards me. I look up and see Ghost without saying a word. He sits next to me.

“Thanks for saving my arse.” Ghost eyes meet mine as I smile.

“No problem.” Before I could continue talking, Ghost interrupts me.

“Starting’ to think you aren't such a pain in the ass.” He then quickly gets up before I could fully process what he said.

“Wait what…” I groan in annoyance, “Christ…” I finished my food and made my way back to the barracks. As I approach my cot, I see a candy bar on my pillow. I grab it “it's probably from soap…hmph.” I eat it before quickly settling in for bed.

OKAY DUNGEON TIMEEEEE Imma do Yunobo and while I know it wants me to save Riju for last I simply cannot stay away for long so I’ll go there next!

Yo these temples are fire I got majorly concerned with the Wind Temple but it genuinely makes sense to have a more familiar groundwork for players to begin with that’s just different enough that you notice so it prepares you for the more complex classic Zelda dungeon twist the rest of them have

I’m annoyed all of their abilities require me like ‘asking’ their spirits rather than having a function button to summon it at will

Except for tulin bc he is my child and all is forgiven. And Riju bc she’s pretty and I love her

DID I FUCKING MANIFEST KOHGA BEING ALIVE AND IN THE DEPTHS?????? BITTTTCCCCHHHHHH I thought these people be straight up loyal but nah he ain’t dead, just chillin in the depths

Yo I thought I was at the end of the game but nope I find out that the Zelda I’ve been chasing is a puppet WOW who would have guessed 🙃

BUT THE WAY GANONDORF WAS LIKE “using her made it so easy to lure you into traps” like my man KNOWS

Okay okay fifth Sage down and now I’m going to the Hyrule castle chasm

Was no one going to tell me this might be difficult bc I’m just tryna sneak through but that ain’t happening LOL

I’m going to shower and eat dinner and THEN I’ll beat the game

Oh my god we back at the place we started I LOVE FULL CIRCLES

I’m going to fucking sob this has been such a good fight!!! Getting to use the master sword the entire time >>>>>

(Even though i legitimately used a lynel bow and bombs to deal most of my damage to Ganondorf… don’t judge me I am ✨strategic✨ and I only managed fo do real damage if I did arrows, arrows, dodge dodge dodge, flurry rush, backpedal it up)

ZELDA BEING MY HOMIE IN THIS DRAGON FIGHT WE LOVE TO SEE IT !!! She makes me so happy she went straight for Link to save him bc that’s simply instinct

🥹🥹🥹🥹IM SOBBING THIS IS SO FUCKINNNNGGGGGGGGGGGG THIS IS SO GOOD I LOVE HER AND I LOVE THAT WE GET TO DIVE AFTER HER AND ACTUALLY CATCH HER 🥹🥹🥹

Lifting her out of the water… Zelda waking up to the feeling of a warm loving embrace… telling Link “I’m home” and that she has “so much to tell” him… I’m going to need another box of tissues bc I be EMOTIONAL

Awe all the sages pledging themselves to Zelda

Link just being a silent supportive boyfriend bc homeslice can and will do everything to protect Zelda (and okay he already did a ceremony for this but let me have my shipper goggles on)

I’m just going to say it. This might be my favorite game. And I’m a diehard Majora’s Mask fan. Like that’s been my favorite for a WHILE. I miss the simplicity for some of the game mechanics but thoroughly enjoy the new creations we can make. I also understand zonai devices now so when Kass comes in the DLC it’s over for y’all

Anyway botw/totk zelink is canon and no one can change my mind

#this is essentially a reaction post now that I think about it #this post has been a week and a few days in the making #worth it def #loz totk spoilers #loz totk #zelink #totk zelink #loz tears of the kingdom spoilers #loz tears of the kingdom

Moth and Flame (not Ghoul enough)

Behold, I have finished this fanfic, I am editing chapters as they come out.

Sodo/Dew x Reader primarily. Little Rain and Phantom x Reader too. Reader do just get around.

Mature, more plot over porn.

Tags: banter, attempts at humour, little violence, gore, really don't take this one seriously

Classic enemies to lovers romcom vibes. Not reinventing the wheel should be an easy read. The reader is a too-happy, sparkly ghoul who has been given the position of cardinal. Sodo is the bane of their entire existence; they are forced to work together. Gaffs ensue.

Deals with themes of being a people pleaser.

Below you can find the first chapter~

will probably repost when I have made a pretty cover for this one~

You hummed softly, swaying in the lazy light of early spring. You spun barefoot around your well-trodden paths of the greenhouse, which hid in the great shadow of the cathedral. Your waltz caused your tail to sweep the dirt floor and the skirts of your white cassock to flutter.

You stopped dead in your tracks. “Just look at you~” you chirped, pausing to admire one of your black roses. “Friend, you’re early; the ritual dance isn’t for another three weeks,” you tapped the early bloomer on the head. “Maybe I’ll dry you out so people can still enjoy all the work you’ve put into being pretty, hmm?” You pondered for a while before pouring some water from your watering can. The water ran red. The rose could not be happier.

“Cardinal _______,” came a soft call.

A smile slowly peeled over your face; your teeth were sharp, but your demeanour wasn’t threatening. “Sister Maria~” you sparkled and peered down from the balcony, “I’m in the roses—from memory, you liked my roses, hum?”

“O—o.. yes, Cardinal.” You were her Juliet on your balcony, and the small slight of a girl turned bright beet red.

You cocked your brow and gave her an unassuming grin. “Whatever has you so flustered, Sister?”

“N-nothing, uh, Papa Emeritus has sent for you, Cardinal.”

“And here I was thinking you’d come to see me, Sister,” you teased and picked up your snips from your tool table. “I’ll be down in a moment.” Your voice turned to whisper, “You want to go with her, huh? That’s why you were early, very sly of you.” You took the rose low on the stem and replaced your snips on the bench before walking down the spiral steps, flower in tow. “You look lovely today, Sister~” you twittered.

“Oh, t-thank you…” The scarlet of her cheeks contrasted her black habit.

You expertly dethorned the rose with quick claws. “Here you are,” you gave a short bow and offered the plant.

“T-thank you, Cardinal,” she stammered and looked away as she twirled the stem between her fingers.

“Anytime, Sister~ You know I appreciate your company~” You twinkled and danced around her, tail moving like a streamer in your wake. “Will you walk with me to see Papa~?”

“No-no, I’m needed in the kitchens today.”

You clicked your tongue, “Ah, too bad—and still, I think I can tell when you are helping out in the kitchens, the meals taste a little extra… mhhm.” You made the universal hand sign for ‘fucking delicious’.

“Oh, I just chop…”

“It’s not what goes in… it’s the way you smell,” you slowly flashed her your teeth.

She swallowed.

“Anyway~ I’ll see you later, Sister; enjoy your rose~” you beamed and near-skipped away to Papa Copia’s offices.

***

“Meet in Aeth’s room after practice?” Rain the water ghoul prompted the group of dark-clad ghouls in his soft-spoken voice.

“Yeah, you can all try my new brew,” Swiss’s grin was too big, it always was.

“Eugh, you didn’t make this one in your toilet again, right?” Aether wrinkled his nose.

“Noooo….” Swiss waved off in a way that everyone with ears could tell he was full of shit.

“Oh, you so did, fucking minging, man,” Aether was loud. His voice echoed up the polished marble hallway.

“Naw, come on, it adds to the-the… experience. It’s fucking powerful stuff—I’ve been bothering Papa for a distiller.”

“I don’t care about the minutia and the abience of your fucking toilet, man!” Aeth’s nose wrinkled.

“I cleaned it before I..”

“Brewed more fucking shit in it?” Aeth’s brows rose in a ‘are you kidding?’ manner.

“Well, I’m in,” Phantom shrugged, “pretty sure I’ve put worse things in my mouth.

“Pretty sure I’ve watched you put worse things in your mouth,” Aether slapped his shorter brother’s shoulder affectionately.

“Uh, hey guys, what are we talking about~?” You twinkled, stepping up to the group. Your white hooded cassock shone colours in the stained glass sunlight, a blinding contrast to their inky black formal ghoul’s uniforms.

“Oh…” is all Swiss said.

They all went dead quiet.

You felt the weight of it.

You watched them look at each other.

Even Phantom couldn’t look at you.

You nodded to yourself, “Uh, I was going to hang out in the forest later this week if anyone wanted to come?” You prompted, still smiling.

“Ah, busy week,” Aether stretched.

“Busy,” Swiss nodded. “Yeah, you know all this ritual prep,” Swiss waved.

“Phantom?” You smiled hopefully.

“Ah, nah, gonna have to take the L on this one, Cardinal… busy, uh, with them.” He pointed to the rest of the group.

“All uh, week?” You frowned.

“Yeah, yes.” Swiss nodded. “Alllll week, that Copia is a real slave driver.”

You nodded in a big way. “Ah, yeah… I get it, no, uh… probably more fun alone, right…? uh, trees and… yeah. Really absorb the… ambience,” You refused to let your smile die or show any disappointment.

“Anyway, we got a thing with Sodo, like right now, so…” Swiss thumbed.

“That’s right,” Phantom touched his forehead. “Almost forgot that.”

“Oh, cool, yeah, you guys have an awesome day, huh?” You nodded, still beaming as brightly as you could.

“Yes, will do!” Phantom gave a thumbs up but was already walking away.

There was a chorus of ‘bye’s, and they hurriedly walked away. Rain was last to move. “Sorry, Cardinal ______…” he murmured, turning away.

“You know you don’t have to call me that?” You called softly, knowing his grey, pointed ears would still hear you. “Just ______ is fine.”

“______,” he muttered but left anyway.

Your grin shakily gave out, and you sighed softly, watching the leaves dance and mar the light of the windows. You were alone.

***

“Ah, my beautiful Cardi _,” Copia brimmed and stood from his paper-littered desk. He might as well have swum up to you from the depths of ink and paperwork. Poor guy.

“Does not seem fair that I can no longer call you Cardi C, Papa,” you chuckled. “How are you today, Papa E~?”

He was in his comfy red sweats and simple dark eye makeup for a hard day in the office. “Ah yes, good-good. Come sit, my ghoul. You want a biscuit or perhaps a juice box?” He offered you the cookie jar on his desk as he always did.

You sat, your tail ending up politely in your lap as you waved off the biscuit; for some reason, you had no appetite. It definitely had nothing to do with what just happened in the hallway on your way here. “What can I help you with today, Papa~?” You twinkled.

“Naw, can’t I ask you into my office just to catch up?” His grin skewed the black of his painted upper lip.

“I know you wish you could, Papa,” you huffed a small sigh, missing when you were both cardinals and he had actual time on his hands. But humans grew up—and you just wouldn’t.

“I’m taking some holiday time soon, perhaps then, huh?”

“That is the best news I’ve heard all day~” you grinned. “Ooo ooooo, I gotta start planning!”

“Yes, I will book you in for a weekend, but until then, I want you to do something for me.”

“Hmm~? I’m listening.”

“I, uh, need the basement cleaned out and reorganised. I went down looking for what we need for the springtime ritual dance, and I really couldn’t find shit down there.”

“Not even a little turd?” You frowned.

“Very funny,” he said in a way that meant, ‘you’re not funny at all’.

You stood and stretched yourself out. “Last I checked, it’s a fucking hellscape down there; I think I’d know because, uh,” you pointed to the horns that popped out the top of your hood. “But I’ve got this~ Anything else, Papa?” You were already getting ready to leave, though. He just didn’t have time for you anymore, but if this made things easier for him, you were all too happy to help.

“Eh, yes, actually,” he looked away, and his leather-clad finger fiddled with a pen on his desk.

“You’re usually a little more forward about these things,” you chuckled and piqued a brow.

“What? Uh, nah.. it’s…” he cleared his throat. “Sodo will be helping you clear the basement.”

“Eh-what?” You felt your usually springy, chipper mood slipping.

“Sodo is going to be helping you out,” he repeated, but you had definitely heard him correctly the first time. You were praying for a bee to have maybe buzzed passed, and it sounded like people just saying stupid shit for some reason.

“Papa…” you eased. “Papa, this is where you say uh, ‘sike’, and we both laugh because he is an awful shit, and you would never trap me in a basement with him for weeks on end.”

“I am sorry, ______, I am aware of how you feel about him.”

“I am starting to think that may not be the case. Papa, Lucifer created him to be the size of a football for a reason.” You studied his mismatched eyes, trying to detect some kind of joke you were missing.

“A reason, Caro?”

“So that Baggio might one day kick him into the sun.”

Copia laughed before he could stop himself. “Ah, I love Baggio~”

“Come on, Papa, there has to be something more useful he could be doing, like uh, being a hamburger. I have a very good recipe if you ever consider….”

“______,” he shook his head and chuckled, “I’m sorry, it’s out of my hands; Sister caught him trying to set a fire in the abbey again…”

“Of course, he was,” you rolled your eyes. “He keeps saying there are cherubs in there…”

“He’ll be helping you out as punishment.”

“Punish himmmm! Not me! I can do this all so easily by myself.”

“Don’t get me wrong, I love you both dearly,”

“I have no idea why…” you muttered under your breath.

“But I worry what would happen if he was in there alone and unsupervised with all our ritual decorations…”

“And the weapons locker,” you huffed, and your lip dropped. “He only has two brain cells, violence and dumb.”

“Naw, come now, Cardinal ______. I am still not wholly sure why you hate him so much.”

“He’s short, angry and mean,” you answered without thought.

“Mean?”

“Oh, you know, ‘______, if you love plants so much why don’t you marry one,’ orrr ‘______, maybe you should sew yourself a body bag next’ orrr ‘______, I get to make love to Swiss, and you don’t so… go eat worms.’ You know, things like this.”

Copia steepled his hands in thought. “I see. Maybe you could, uh, take time and ‘bond’ over this… at least hate each other a little less…”

“Bond? Bond?! Papa! I rather eat glass. I would rather strap on wings and ascend to whatever heaven the Trump supporters go to.”

“At the very least, you will have some more uh, comedic material, huh?”

You blew out your cheeks. “They say trauma makes a person very funny. Eugh, but I’ve already seen hell; why must I survive it here too?!”

“Ah, always so dramatic, my pretty ghoul.”

You gave him a face of utter disapproval.

“I’m afraid it’s my final say on the matter, ______. I believe the two of you can work out the basement without too much damage.”

You closed your eyes for a long time and sighed, “I understand this next ritual takes a lot of time and planning, so I will do this for you, Papa Copia—not for him. For you.”

“Thank you, my sweet ghoul. Perhaps I will take time to plan out our weekend, huh? As a reward for all this?”

“When did you ever get so charming?” You gave him a tight smile.

“Oh, uh, always~” he grinned.

“Right, let’s fucking get this done…”

“Hope you have a lovely day, Cardinal~”

“You too, Papa,” you sagged, opening the door. Your tail followed you limply out. Fucking shitty, fuck. Hell.

Thank you for reading friend! I hope you enjoyed it!!

So we all know that unlike his performances as a) a lover for Cyneswith b) an aspiring murderer, iVan’s performance as a servobot has been a complete flop. But worry not, cause now that he has a job, it’s gotten even worse!

-Ugh.

-UGH.

-UUUUUGHHHH -W̷H̶A̵T̶'̷S W̵R̴O̸N̴G J̶O̴J̵O̷🧟 -This isn’t your job, it’s iVan’s job! -I̵ D̵O̷N̸'̷T M̸I̶ND, C̸O̷C̷K̷R̴O̸A̸C̶H̴E̴S AR̴E T̸A̶S̷T̸Y🧟 -Well I do mind, I’m getting carpal tunnel on my rotting bones from all this housework! -I̴ H̴A̶V̶E R̷O̶T̸T̵I̶N̸G B̷O̶N̴E̴S T̵O̷O🧟 -Yes Sandy, I know, maybe if you laid off the constant zombie talk you’d be able to keep a man. -M̴E̵A̶N̴🧟 -It’s time to have a stern talk with iVan!!

-𝙳𝙰𝙽𝙲𝙴, 𝙱𝙾𝙾𝙶𝙸𝙴 𝚆𝙾𝙽𝙳𝙴𝚁𝙻𝙰𝙰𝙰𝙰𝙰𝙽𝙳🎵 -iVan, we need to talk. -𝙸 𝙵𝙸𝙽𝙳 𝚁𝙾𝙼𝙰𝙽𝙲𝙴 𝚆𝙷𝙴𝙽 𝙸 𝚂𝚃𝙰𝚁𝚃 𝚃𝙾 𝙳𝙰𝙽𝙲𝙴 𝙸𝙽 𝙱𝙾𝙾𝙶𝙸𝙴 𝚆𝙾𝙽𝙳𝙴𝚁𝙻𝙰𝙰𝙰𝙰𝙰𝙽𝙳🎵 -Yea as long as your not finding it with my daughter, now listen- -𝙳𝙰𝙽𝙲𝙴 𝚆𝙸𝚃𝙷 𝙼𝙴 𝙹𝙾𝙹𝙾. 𝙸 𝙹𝚄𝚂𝚃 𝙻𝙴𝙰𝚁𝙽𝙴𝙳 𝚃𝙾 𝙳𝙾 𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝚁𝙾𝙱𝙾𝚃. -FINE. Now look, you are my prized scientific achievement and I’m very proud of you for developing self-awareness and all that crap, but you’re not fulfilling the basic purpose of your creation and it’s completely unacceptable! -𝙳𝙾𝙽'𝚃 𝚆𝙾𝚁𝚁𝚈, 𝙸 𝙷𝙰𝚅𝙴 𝙰𝙽 𝙸𝙳𝙴𝙰 𝙰𝙱𝙾𝚄𝚃 𝚃𝙷𝙰𝚃.

iVAN ARE YOU KIDDING ME

-𝙸 𝙷𝙰𝚅𝙴 𝙽𝙾𝚃 𝚈𝙴𝚃 𝙳𝙴𝚅𝙴𝙻𝙾𝙿𝙴𝙳 𝙰 𝚂𝙴𝙽𝚂𝙴 𝙾𝙵 𝙷𝚄𝙼𝙾𝚁. 𝙽𝙾𝚆 𝙸𝙵 𝚈𝙾𝚄'𝙻𝙻 𝙴𝚇𝙲𝚄𝚂𝙴 𝙼𝙴 𝚂𝙰𝙽𝙳𝚈 𝙸𝚂 𝙱𝙰𝙲𝙺 𝙵𝚁𝙾𝙼 𝚃𝙷𝙴 𝙳𝙴𝙰𝙳.

Oh, so THIS you can do! It’s unbelievable how useless everyone in this house is.

-Not me, I got promoted again AND I got a chance card bonus!

NICE, how much?

-$1300!

Stop wasting my time, will you? This isn’t generation 1.

FAMILY LAW? Are those big bucks coming from Sugar’s divorces??

-They sure are!

-I got a promotion and a bonus too, but that’s not the only thing I brought back from work!

It better not be Sugar’s next wife!

-No no, relax-

-It’s just a cold that’s gonna become endemic to our household for the next 20 years!

Oh wow Sophito, that was really the only thing missing around here, you’re the best!

-WOOOO MY TWO UNHOLY CREATIONS FIGHTING TO THE DEATH!!! ANOTHER PROUD DAY FOR SCIENCE

-Now listen here little daytime wolf, you tell your boss that I will give him Sophito and Liz’s baby once it’s born, ok?

JOJO

-What? I’m not ACTUALLY going to do it!

Aren’t you??

-Of course not, what kind of patriarch do you think I am?

The kind that hates all his children?

-Oh please, can you blame me??

Good point.

It’s time for Moody to leave us💔

-DADDY NOOOO

-Goodbye Servilia darling, I’m off to join your mother in Heaven!

That’s so sweet, Valentina is definitely in Hell💔 RIP Moody, you were the first and probably last good dog we ever had, we will miss you terribly💔

I don’t even have time to mourn Moody’s passing as I get this pop-up and it turns out NEON VEST IS BACK HERE AGAIN AND FIGHTING DON. WTF

-WAAAAAH -That’s right bitches, there’s a new psycho spurned lover in town! I’m gonna handle this rejection so poorly it will make Jack Do look like Claire!!

Oh please GOD NO.

-GET REKT NEON VEST -MY NAME IS AIDEN AND BEFORE THIS IS OVER YOU WILL ALL LEARN IT!!

We don’t WANT to learn it, just stop showing up here!

-NEVER. I WON’T GIVE UP UNTIL CYNESWITH GIVES ME MY FIRST KISS

What??

OH MY GOD AIDEN WHY WOULD YOU ATTEMPT THIS AGAIN

-Um, do I know you, huhu?🌸 -We banged in the Downton hot tub! -You’ll have to be a lot more specific💗

Omg it’s Wyatt! He hasn’t shown up in ages, man even as a ghost you’re lazy as fuck.

-Jòjò? Jòjò, c’est timeoix tò joiné moi!

Ya it’s beyond time, Wyatt, but unfortunately we’re in the middle of another wolf party:

-Ok wolf, enough is enough! Tell me how much money you want to bite me and it’s yours!! Just give me a number!!!

-ARE YOU TRYING TO BRIBE ME WITH MONEY? IT DOESN’T EVEN TASTE GOOD🐺

-Well you can buy whatever meats you want with it!!

-I DON’T SUPPORT THE MEAT INDUSTRY, THAT’S WHY I ONLY EAT HUMANS🐺

-What?

-YA I’M AN ANIMAL MEAT VEGETARIAN🐺

-CALL ME WHEN THAT BABY IS BORN🐺

NO HE WON’T. You won’t, right?

-Of course not! Probably.

-WOOO ANOTHER FIGHT -GO iVAN, KICK DON’S DUMB ASS -I’M SO EXCITED BY ALL THIS VIOLENCE I SERIOUSLY MIGHT GIVE BIRTH

LIZ HOLD THAT BABY IN UNTIL JOJO IS A WEREWOLF

The night of bloodshed continues as Dobronega beats up Kitana. What is it with all our pets beating up their own children?

-DON’T EVER AGAIN QUESTION IF MY SCAR IS REAL, GOT IT, YOU LITTLE FLOP??

Klaus aren’t you just so excited about Dobrie becoming your mother in law?

-I’m old now!

You look so cute!!

-Well don’t be deceived because I’m still a force of pure evil!!! Now where’s Cyneswith, I want my belly kisses!!!

-I’M HOOOOOOOOOME🌸

Cut that ‘ME’ out and the statement still stands! So I actually had Cyn re-get her slacker job after she got fired on the first day (lol) because I figured ‘aging professional party guest’ was super in character-

-plus the less she’s home, the less we’ll have of this shit! I’M TIRED

I’m also tired of delusional moron Sophito, who apparently saw everything Sandy is suffering and went ‘I gotta get in on that’.

-So tell me Sandy, does being a double zombie feel different than being a regular zombie?? -B̵R̸A̸I̷N M̶O̵R̵E R̸O̴T̴T̴E̶N̵🧟

See Soph, you’re already there!

Case in point!

-Can you believe it babe, I got my second bump! -Oh darling, let’s stand even closer to that beautiful glow of the burning floor so I can admire you!

iVAN. WHY.

Ok everyone shut up, it’s wolf party time, you’ll tank the score!

-Come on, wolfie, bite me.. Look at these beautiful bony fingers.. You couldn’t get meat this delicately aged if you ate a mummy.. -SORRY JOJO OUR RELATIONSHIP ISN’T HIGH ENOUGH. TIME FOR ME TO LEAVE, IN TURN LEAVING YOU DICK IN BONY HAND🐺

FUCKING HELL ALREADY. HOW HIGH DOES THIS RELATIONSHIP NEED TO BE

-At least as high as mine and my only son’s is! I love you, Sophito!💗 -Mom PLEASE think about this. How can he be your son when his name is SOPHITO -What? It’s a cute name I picked, huhu!🌸

-OK THAT’S IT, MY NEXT DIVORCE CAN’T COME SOON ENOUGH -Yes, my death can’t come soon enough either.

Agreed.

LOOKS LIKE FUCKING DAGMAR BERTINO’S DEATH IS COMING SOONER THAN EXPECTED THO LOLOL. GET HER MOODY ILY (and I love that this mod apparently allows ghosts to appear in daytime if the storm is bad enough???)

-I SOILED MYSELF!!!

Just like I used to soil myself when we were broke and you showed up with bills! Karma’s a bitch but Servilia isn’t, look at her getting along with Xander! Finally something nice around here-

-OMG IT’S TIME. YOU CAN DO IT, LIZ

-GET OUT YOU LITTLE BASTARD, GET OUT

-Liz no pressure but once it gets out, wanna do it?

Sophito istg..

It’s a girl and a GINGER. RECESSIVE GENES STRIKE BACK AFTER 2 GENS WTF

-Who cares?! It’s my beautiful perfect baby no matter what! -I care! Now that the baby has my hair color I can’t give it to the wolf! -Jojo what are you rambling about? -Nothing Liz, congratulations!

I name the bebecita Felina because a) Sophie’s Spanish heritage b) we are cat people c) I’m going through a deranged cowboy phase and was listening to this. Welcome to the world, Felina, how exciting that generation 5 is here, nothing is gonna overshadow this special moment-

-AIDEN WTF. WHY ARE YOU HERE

-YOU KNOW WHY I’M HERE. GIVE ME MY FIRST KISS, CYNESWITH! YOU DEFLOWERED ME WITHOUT KISSING ME, THIS CANNOT STAND -Um, hard pass, but I will accept a flirt with both my husband and robot lover present!💗

CYN NO

-CHEATING ON ME DURING A BIRTH? THIS IS A NEW LOW, CYNESWITH -I know right? Huhu!🌸

-𝚆𝙴 𝙹𝚄𝚂𝚃 𝙶𝙾𝚃 𝙱𝙰𝙲𝙺 𝚃𝙾𝙶𝙴𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁 𝙰𝙽𝙳 𝚈𝙾𝚄 𝙱𝚁𝙴𝙰𝙺 𝙼𝚈 𝙼𝙾𝚃𝙷𝙴𝚁𝙱𝙾𝙰𝚁𝙳 𝙰𝙶𝙰𝙸𝙽? -I’m so sorry iVan, it just happened, I never meant to cause all this drama just to take attention away from that stupid newborn baby!💗

Ok then. As far as our births go this was one of the more successful ones, at least no one died!

-I hate this family. Goo goo.

Everyone does, you’ll fit right in💛

🌟ARLO🦴 | YOUR MENACING SHIFTER IS TOTALLY NOT SICK

(Redacted oc)

*************************************************

You had practically adopted Arlo by this stage, he was still trying to adjust to being around you but he was getting better at showing when things bothered him, like when you took one of his blankets to wash and he sat in front of the washing machine waiting for it to be clean.

However over the past week there had been nothing but rainy days, and much to your disapproval, arlo hated rain coats, it was like you were trying to make him wear a straight jacket, on multiple occasions, he had just ran straight outside with no regard for his health, however this all came to a halt, when this morning- after being out all evening in the rain- you found he had a fever, and was undoubtedly sick as a dog.

You felt a small tug on your shirt as you were making lunch, turning round to see your little arlo standing there, sleepy and dazed from sickness. “..can we have.. pizza.. tonight.. Please?”

You giggled at his little request, scooping him up to go bring him back to bed “no arlo, no pizza today, your too sick for pizza today”

He didn't want to go back to bed, he had done enough sleeping. There were only so many times someone could watch bluey. And arlo had reached his limit “am not.. I'm healthy.. I would never..” his sickness was clear in his voice.. He also maybe needed a tissue

“Ok, if you're not sick, gimme some jumping jacks” you set arlo down on the floor, he probably wouldn't get more then two before his body decided it wasnt worth all that effort. Arlo steadied himself up and tried to do a jumping jack, before his knees gave in..

He sat on the floor, he could see that “I told you so” smirk growing on your face, “I'M JUST SITTING. Im.. I'm not sick.``

“Are to.”

“Am not.”

You scooped arlo back up, kissing his forehead, his skin hot from his fever. “How about I get you an ice pack and some soup? Y'know this is why you should listen when i say you need your rain coat”

“I'm not sick.. From the rain.. It's not from the rain.. Plus.. your soup sucks.” you let out a fake gasp which arlo seemed to think was real.. “N-no no.. sorry.. Your soups good..”

You slowly walked towards the bedroom, prompting annoyed grumbles “..mmnoo.. Nooo.. no bed. No moreeee!! I can't take.. All the.. The cosiness. And.. and all the.. The..” his voice trailed off as he looked like he was about to sneeze.. He sneezed like a little kitten.

“Bless you pup.. And come on.. Why wouldn't you wanna be lazy? All day, and you get endless attention?”

“Cus i hate it. I wanna colour an-.. And and go outside.. And then the rooms all stuffy! And my blankies all scratchy and you took.. Ri-richy to the wash..”

“Richy?”

“Yes! Richy! The-.. my-.. The dragon plushie..”

You found it adorable the boy had already named the plushie you got him the other day on the little shopping trip, that was mainly to get the kid somethings, even then he didn't know

“Pup, you gotta rest, you have a fever, you can hardly stand, and… your getting just a little grumpy”

Right on que arlo grumbled “i wanna colourrrr!!!” you slowly sat arlo back into bed, tucking him in and stroking his hair, you watched as he closed his eyes, leaning into the physical affection “mhm..”

“You wait here pup, i'll be back soon” you smiled, and heard his mumbles

“Nnnooo.. no no nnnooooo..” He tried to shuffle out of bed but he was far too cozy and far too sick.

You came back a little bit later, you set a little tray with paper and crayons in front of arlo “now you can colour in bed”

He giggled a little “mm.. Ok.. beds better now..” he began to colour

“I'll bring you some chicken soup” you were greeted by an immediate no

“Noooo!! Not chicken soup!”

You laughed, stroking his hair “ok.. You want to watch bluey and I'll go make some.. Vegetable soup”

Arlo nodded, putting his hands in the air, which hurt a little “the dog show!”

You smiled, kissing his forehead and putting on bluey, and leaving to go make soup. By the time you finished, you found Arlo asleep holding a crayon in his hands. You smiled, tucking him in “get well soon pup..” he mumbled softly in his sleep as you left to go clean up the kitchen

i am sending you a star for the heians fic. what did i miss. please gush about the heians.

did you miss anything in the heians fic? i don't think you missed anything in the heians fic. or if you did miss anything in the heians fic i don't know if it is anything that is necessarily of interest to anyone but me? y'all, i went in way too hard on this fic. the amount of research i did would infuriate and dismay you. and in all fairness i was being metaphorically swung around by the ankles and thwacked against a wall at work at the time of writing it, so i kind of had nothing else to do but get a little annoying about historical references, but. y'know. @ me maybe make it about samurai next time or like something people care about.

oh, here's a thing i guess—i kind of liked my rendering of the one historical poem presented in full in this fic, Michitsuna no Haha's poem of the barred gate. in Edward Seidensticker's translation:

Do you know how slow the dawn can be when you have to wait alone?

and in Sonja Arntzen's (superior) rendition:

Sorrow, sorrowing when one sleeps alone the time until night opens into day, how long it is perhaps you now know it too.

like DAMN Sonja. that hits DIFFERENT. but at the same time having decided to not commit to the 5-7-5-7-7 meter throughout because i'm too fucking lazy i wanted to keep the flow of the poetic exchanges less formalized and more conversational as they would have felt in real heians time, i wanted to compress the feeling Arntzen captured into something a little pithier like Seidensticker's version. (but less stupidly phrased. "how slow the dawn can be"? like my mans, surely "how slow the coming of the dawn" makes more fucking sense.) hence:

How long and chill the night when one must sleep alone—perhaps you understand it now!

and yes, i lost the "opening" imagery that plays on the barred gate, and yes, maybe i added in some meteorological allusions that weren't in the original, and no, i still don't speak any japanese and am just going on vibes, SORRY I KNOW THAT MAKES ME JUST LIKE ARTHUR WALEY WHICH IS DISGUSTING OF ME, but idk. all things considered, at the very least i think mine reads a leetle nicer than Ed's.

and additionally, here's a secret: i kinda fucked up my shinden-zukuri architecture in the first section frankly. there's no real reason why the lady of the house would be hanging out in the hisashi alone in the middle of the night while her ladies-in-waiting are asleep in the moya. i guess you could handwave it like "ohh she stayed up waiting for Kaneie ohhh she couldn't stay in the inner room with all those people ohh Desire was simply doing some fuckshit" but like. get real. be serious. why would she have a brazier out there? why would she call it "my rooms"? (i guess there's an argument to be made that by "my rooms" she's referring to her entire wing of the house but still.) she's practically NAKED hanging out out there fully dressed in multiple layers with the screen slightly cracked. UNACCEPTABLY whorish behavior.

fucking intolerable. i'm humiliated. this is worse than the poems not scanning in a language i have never studied and do not speak. Sonja Arntzen is en route to my house to visit unspeakable horrors upon my person at this very moment. and it's like noooo, Sonja, please, i'm not even a heians scholar, spare me and i'll help you hunt down Royall Tyler instead!! but she doesn't care. she just. doesn't. care.

#ask games #chatter #from what i understand it's pretty normal for all the academics in a given field to want to kill each other with weapons #(this user <- is not an academic)#but the difficult thing in english-language heian scholarship is there's like eight people in there tops #so i guess it's sort of the thing to do to just violently call out your academic colleagues in your published works #because like. come on. you're talking about a monograph about spirit possession as a device for female empowerment #OBVIOUSLY that's doris bargen. you look dumber if you try to gloss that. everyone knows you're talking about doris #which leads to some very funny moments in published works where the acknowledgements are like ''i'd like to thank paul schalow''#and then the body of the work is like ''PAUL SCHALOW IF I EVER SEE YOUR MEDIOCRE SCHOLARSHIP AGAIN YOU WILL KNOW FEAR BEFORE THE END''#anyway the tyler gengy is my favorite translation. and yes given the chance i would still kick royall tyler in the nuts #because i don't think he thinks women have brains #and that is the true spirit of heian scholarship babey!

Side To Side

Chapter 226: Packing

Characters: Ruby, Law, Ikkaku Rating: Teen Warnings: Kissing, sex mention Notes: I am simply ignoring that new admiral's powers thanks. Full story here.

~~~~~~

Ruby woke up with a start. She blinked a couple times before realizing she was in her bed, in her bedroom, on her submarine. She took a deep breath.

It had been some time since she had a nightmare like that.

She looked at the window and saw that the sun was rising in the distance. It was still pretty early. Far too early for her but she knew there was no way she’d be getting back to sleep now. She looked at Law, who shifted.

She sighed.

She curled up to him and he paused. She felt his finger tips brush against her skin. She tucked her head under his chin and hugged his chest, her way of telling him not to go. Not yet.

He sighed and began to stroke her shoulder softly. He gave in to her easily. He wrapped his arms around her and held her close. They clung to each other in the early morning, as the sun rose in the distance. Ruby closed her eyes and listened to his breathing. Nothing would ever top the comfort he gave her while she was in his arms. It was a quiet morning spent holding on to one another.

Ruby brushed her lips against Law’s neck and it felt like she startled him. Ruby blinked and pulled away to look at his face.

“Why did that shock you?”

“Uh…” a small blush appeared in his nose.

“Did you fall back asleep?”

“I rested my eyes.”

Ruby cracked a smile. She leaned up and kissed his lips chastely. “I love you.” She kissed him again gently.

Law squeezed her for a moment. “I love you, too. I’m sorry that you had a nightmare.”

“I never said I had a nightmare.” He rolled his eyes at her. Ruby sighed. “Yeah. It’s been a while since I’ve had one.”

“It happens,” he said casually. “Don’t let it get to you.” He kissed her. He kissed her so sweetly, like he could when they were alone and safe. This was a kiss that caused her to fall in love with him all over again.

They pulled away and Ruby stared into his eyes. She kissed him chastely.

“Can we just do this all day?”

Law chuckled. “No, I need to get ready. Go ahead and relax until breakfast.”

“Noooo. Stay in bed with me,” she whined.

Law kissed her forehead. “Nope. I gotta be a captain.”

Ruby pouted but let him get out of bed. She watched him walk into the bathroom before sighing. She collapsed onto her back and let out a pitiful groan. She wanted to be lazy. She wanted to stay in bed and cuddle all day. It’s what she deserved. Instead she knew she needed to get out of bed and get ready for the day. She needed to eat and then clean and organize her things in her bedroom. Then she needed to pick out what she needed to take with her to Dressrosa and pack her things.

She groaned again.

Too much. It’s too early. She didn’t want to leave the sub. She was scared to go.

“What’s with all the whining and groaning? I’m letting you be lazy.” Law walked back into the bedroom with a huff. Ruby pouted at him sadly and he sighed. “You can always change your mind.”

“I will not.”

“Then knock off the pouting.”

He walked over to the dresser and started pulling out clothes. Ruby sat up and watched him get dressed. Her messy hair hung down her naked back as she watched her lover dress himself. She sighed.

“I’m gonna get up,” she said. “Might as well. I’m going to be busy anyway,” she grumbled.

Law didn’t respond. He pulled his shirt over his head and sighed. He turned to look at her with an unreadable look in his eyes. He stared at her silently for a moment before walking over to her. He leaned down and kissed her forehead slowly. Ruby closed her eyes and savored the feeling of his lips on her skin. Ruby let out a slow breath.

“I love you, beautiful.” Ruby’s eyes shot open and she blushed bright red. She collapsed onto her side and grabbed a pillow to cover her face, her face growing hotter with Law’s laugh. “I knew that’s the reaction I’d get out of you.”

“Rude,” she squeaked. “You’re absolutely rude.”

He chuckled, so very proud of himself. “Yes, I know. I’m going to go start a pot of coffee if Clione hasn’t already. Take your time getting ready. If he hasn’t decided on breakfast yet would you like me to ask for pain perdu?”

Ruby nodded behind her pillow. “Yes, please.” She pulled the pillow down so she could look at him. He grinned down at her. She huffed. “I love you, too.”

He chuckled, ruffled her hair, and left her.

Ruby stared at the spot where he had stood in silence before groaning very dramatically. She laid on her back and groaned even louder. She took a deep breath and sat up. She swung her legs around the side of the bed and felt the cold floor with her toes. She stood up and stretched. She huffed and started to crack her fingers, thinking to herself about what she wanted to wear for the day.

She wasn’t in the mood for a show, not if she was just staying on the sub and mostly in her bedroom. She was soon going to have to live on an island where she would be around people often and probably even have to get a job. Ruby made a face thinking about having to actually work again. Like waitressing. Ugh.

Whatever. She needed to get ready.

After brushing her teeth and hair she put on jeans and a tank top along with some sandals. She threw her hair in a bun and didn’t bother with makeup, especially since she didn’t feel like having smudged eyeliner if someone made her cry again.

She started towards the cafeteria thinking about how she absolutely did not feel like cleaning and organizing even though that was her whole goal for the day. She wanted to play with flowers! She wanted to eat fruit and hang out with Ikkaku! She didn’t want to be a responsible adult who follows through with her decisions!

She sighed and then she realized she had made it to the cafeteria. She could smell the coffee brewing. A couple crew mates were in the kitchen but otherwise everyone was either still asleep or getting ready. Clione and Law were always the first ones awake so it made sense that there wouldn’t be anyone else in the room. Most of the crew woke up to the smell of breakfast.

Ruby just liked sleeping.

She stepped into the room lightly. She walked towards the kitchen. She saw Law staring at the coffee pot, probably willing it to go faster, and she saw Clione whipping together eggs.

“Mornin’,” Clione said. “Cap said to make you some pain perdu?”

“Yes, please.” She smiled at him. “With-”

“With cinnamon and whipped cream. I know. I am your cook.”

Ruby’s soft smile turned into a wide grin. “Thanks, Clione.” Ruby turned to her captain who hadn’t acknowledged that she was in the room. Ruby immediately walked up behind him and hugged him from behind.

“Nope. If y’all are going to be cute you gotta get out of my kitchen,” Clione scolded her, giving her an annoyed look.

“I am the victim here,” Law said. “I was assaulted.”

Ruby scoffed. “Oh, shut up.” She pulled away from Law.

The coffee maker beeped and she heard a very quiet “thank god” from Law. She chuckled and stood patiently, waiting for her to turn to get coffee. She bounced silently, watching Law pour himself a cup and then drinking it immediately.

He turned and raised his brow at her. She grinned at him. She walked to the cupboard and grabbed her mug before pouring herself some coffee. She added her cream and sugar before sipping contentedly.

Ruby walked out of the kitchen with Law following her. They sat across from each other at a table. Law grabbed her free hand and rubbed it with his thumb. Ruby squeezed his hand gently, happily enjoying their morning coffee together before the rest of the crew woke up.

Soon enough there were footsteps and chatter growing louder as the crew shuffled into the cafeteria. Law released Ruby’s hand and placed it on his leg. Ruby closed her hand slowly. She sighed and stood up to get food before the crowd. She quickly piled the food onto her plate and sat back down at the table.

The crew filed into the kitchen with boisterous conversations. Everyone seemed so carefree and happy. It made Ruby smile but it also made her heart ache. She would miss the simple mornings on The Tang; all the cheer and joy from coffee and food.

As Ruby and Law ate in silence she felt arms wrap around her neck.

“Morning!” Ikkaku said happily. “Why are you being so quiet?”

“The food is really good,” Ruby lied. “I’m enjoying myself!”

“You and your eggy toast,” Ikkaku laughed. “Hold on, let me get mine and we’ll hang out.”

Ruby smiled as Ikkaku walked towards the kitchen. She watched Ikkaku for a moment before noticing an aggressive plop in front of her. Ruby looked in front of her and saw Jun giving her a hard look. Ruby swallowed and cleared her throat.

Ikkaku came back and sat down by Ruby. “What are your plans today, Rube?” She asked

“Oh, I’m cleaning and organizing all my stuff today. Starting packing and all that.”

“Ahhh,” Ikkaku nodded. “Have you already gotten your greenhouse ready?”

“Yep. Everything is clean and ready for Jean Bart. I made care sheets and everything.”

“Wow! How studious!” Ikkaku exclaimed, impressed.

“Y-yeah. I wanted to make sure everything is taken care of. There will be a steady flow of easy food to eat like sweet potatoes and beans. Hopefully it’ll be enough for everyone.”

“Everyone was able to somehow survive without your crop before,” Law said neutrally. “I’m sure we won’t get malnourished while you’re gone.”

“Ah, that’s true.” Ruby nodded and took a bite of bacon.

“Still,” Ikkaku shot Law a look and he looked nervous. “I’m gonna miss your food. The berries and cream I won’t be able to have.” She sighed dramatically.

“You can buy berries that are just as good,” Jun spoke up for the first time.

“But I want Ruby’s berries.” Ikkaku gave Jun the same look she gave Law.

Ruby smiled and laid her head on Ikkaku’s shoulder. “Thanks.”

Ikkaku rubbed Ruby’s knee. “You’re welcome.”

The four of them dissolved into silence as they ate their meals. Ruby happily ate her amazing breakfast that was technically made special for her. She ate until she was full and then stretched in her spot. She looked down when she felt Ikkaku pull her tank top down over her stomach after it had lifted up as she stretched.

“Tummy.” Ikkaku smiled at her.

“Yeah.” Ruby rubbed her stomach. “What are you doing today?”

“Why?”

“Yeah,” Law said suspiciously. “Why?”

Ruby rolled her eyes. “Because I want you to hang out with me while I clean up and pack.”

“Oh, then nothing important.”

Law huffed at the two of them but they ignored him as they grinned at each other.

Breakfast had finished up and dish duty was assigned. Everyone went to their duties, Jun not glancing at Ruby as she left the cafeteria.

Ruby sighed.

“You two better not goof off.” She heard a grumpy voice from behind her. She turned and grinned at her captain. Ikkaku had done the same. Law rolled his eyes. “Just get out of here before I make you do actual work.”

“Thanks!” Ikkaku said and grabbed Ruby’s hand to drag her away.

Ruby blew Law a kiss and he gave her a disgusted face, making her cackle as Ikkaku dragged her away.

Ruby and Ikkaku made it to her bedroom and walked in. Ruby let out a sigh and kicked off her sandals. She placed her hands on her hips and started thinking about where to start.

“So, cleaning, organizing, and packing?” Ikkaku asked.

“Yep.” Ruby walked over to the bed. She quickly made the bed that she forgot to make when she got ready for the day.

Ikkaku took off her shoes and jumped on the bed when Ruby was done making it. “Where do we start?”

“Hmmm,” Ruby hummed. “Let’s start with the closet.” Ruby immediately walked to the closet and started pulling out all of her clothes. “I got rid of a lot during my foot recovery but I bought more and Law doesn’t stop me even though he likes to pretend he does.” She walked over with an armful of clothes and threw them on the bed.

“Maybe you shouldn’t spend so much money on clothes,” Ikkaku suggested.

“What else would I spend it on?”

“You could save it. That way you’ll be able to buy the house you want.”

“Oh, hm, well maybe. We’ll see.”

Ruby sat on the bed and looked at the dress on top. She fingered the velvet fabric. She picked it up and stared at it.

“Well?” Ikkaku prompted.

“Donate,” Ruby said. “Law hates this dress and I only wore it once.”

“Why does he hate it?”

“The texture of the fabric.”

“He doesn’t like velvet? What?!”

“I know! So sad!” Ruby set aside the dress. She sighed. “Well, it’s not like it hurts me to not get velvet.” She shrugged.

“You’re so nice to him. He hardly deserves it.”

“Right?!”

They giggled.

Ruby started to put clothes into different piles. Her “donate” pile was getting rather large. Maybe Ikkaku was right; maybe she needed to stop buying so many clothes.

Ruby was pulling out clothes from her dresser when Ikkaku sighed.

“Will you buy me a souvenir?” She asked lazily.

“Sure. Is there anything you want?”

“Hmm. I dunno. I don’t know anything about Dressrosa.”

“Apparently,” Ruby started and started to throw pants into the bed. “It’s a city of passionate women.”

“Ooooo, sexy.”

“Mmhmm. It’s also supposed to have great food, too, but that’s all I really know. I mean, that’s why I’m going there. We don’t really know much about Dressrosa.” She looked at Ikkaku. “If I see anything you’d like, I’ll get it for you.”

Ikkaku smiled at her. “Thanks.” Ikkaku picked up two pairs of skinny jeans. “Ruby, these are the same pair of jeans.”

“What? No they’re not!”

“They’re the exact same size, brand, hem, and color.”

Ruby stared at Ikkaku. “D-donate…”

Ikkaku barked out laughter and threw one of the pairs into the “donate” pile. “You know, you’ll need to get rid of some bustiers.”

Ruby gasped like she was offended. “It’s my thing, though. Lace, leather, it’s all me, baby!”

“Ruby, your thing is heels. Your epithet is “Stiletto Ruby.” Emphasis on “Stiletto.””

Ruby grinned. “Yeah, I guess.” She smiled as she pulled out more clothes. “After this I gotta go through jewelry. Then beauty products.”

“By that time it’ll be dinner.”

“Probably. I think it’s already lunch time now, actually.”

“It is.” They heard a flat voice from behind them. They both turned and saw Law staring at them annoyed. “You’re supposed to be cleaning and organizing. This is a mess.”

“It’s part of the process. Don’t worry, this’ll be cleaned up by bedtime.”

Law made a disapproving noise. “I came to get you two for lunch. You need to eat.”

“Yes, Captain,” Ikkaku sang. “What’s for lunch?”

“Tomato soup and grilled cheese sandwiches.”

“Oh, that sounds awesome,” Ruby said and threw the clothes she had in her hands onto the bed. “Let’s go, Ikkaku. You know how quickly soup goes on this sub!”

The three of them walked to the kitchen together. They grabbed their bowls of soup and Clione made grilled cheese for Ikkaku and Ruby. Ruby and Ikkaku decided to eat on deck to get some fresh air. Law stated he wanted some peace and quiet and no giggling girls to disturb his meal so Ruby and Ikkaku giggled and left him to brood alone.

They sat on deck, on Ruby’s sun chair, eating their meals. They talked about nothing, just enjoying their lunch together. Ruby enjoyed the nice weather that they were graced with since they were still on the Grand Line and they all knew that the weather could change at any second.

They finished their meals and Ruby wanted to take a nap. She wouldn’t, of course. She still had so much to do before bedtime. Instead, she and Ikkaku took their dishes back into the kitchen for washing. They walked back into the captain’s quarters and got back to work.

After Ruby successfully separated out her clothes and shoes they moved on to Ruby’s beauty products. Ikkaku stood in the bathroom holding an open trash bag as Ruby evaluated what she wanted to keep and what needed to be tossed.

“You seem to be throwing away a lot of this stuff,” Ikkaku said. Ruby stared at a mostly used up eyeshadow pallet. She tossed it into the trash bag. “Those looked like colors you used often.”

“I did,” Ruby said. “But it’s expired. You’re really only supposed to keep them a year at most. I’ve had that one for almost two.”

“Gross?” Ikkaku made a face and Ruby snorted. “I didn’t even know makeup had expiration dates.”

“Yep.” Ruby tossed an old tube of concealer into the trash. “Plus, you know, I can probably buy more in Dressrosa. I’m sure they have what I need.” Ruby opened her makeup box where she kept all of her lipstick.

“That’s so many!” Ikkaku exclaimed. “Ruby, oh my god, you really should stop spending so much on stuff like this.”

Ruby pouted at her. “Law says the same thing. It’s why he’s stopped giving me his wallet.”

“I’m kinda on his side on this one. How many of those are the same shade?”

“Don’t worry about it.” She dumped out all of the lipstick onto the counter.

She started to throw away all of the old and almost depleted ones. She threw away duplicates that she had bought without thinking about it. She threw away shades that she never wore or ones that were too similar. In the end she started with about 50 different lipsticks and ended up with 10.

“Even that seems like too many,” Ikkaku said. “But I guess it’s definitely an improvement.”

“I mostly kept the kind that doesn’t smudge or bleed. I didn’t even keep lip gloss because it just rubs off too easily and my hair gets caught in it.”

“Okay, what’s next?”

Ruby moved on to facial creams and then perfume and body spray. She threw away most of the cheap items, unless it was something she absolutely loved. She also kept anything that Law or Ikkaku had bought her. After she cleaned out those items she got rid of soaps and sponges she no longer needed.

She eventually moved on to nail polish, which was even worse than the lipstick. Ruby looked all around the room for her nail polish. Most of it was in its own makeup box but there was some on dresser, the bookshelf, in the nightstand, and even in Law’s desk.

Ruby gave Ikkaku a nervous grin at the flat look on her face.

They ended up needing two trash bags to fit all of Ruby’s unneeded beauty products.

By dinner time Ruby had finished throwing away and organizing everything. She was sweeping the floor when Jean Bart appeared, stating it was dinner time.

Ruby and Ikkaku happily made their way to the cafeteria where a very special dinner of steak and asparagus was made. Dinner was filled with loud conversation and laughter. Everyone was excited about the dinner that the captain had bought for them as a surprise when they were in town last. Of course, the asparagus was from Ruby and was nicely roasted with rosemary and thyme. There was even dessert, which were cream cheese pastries .

Ruby said goodnight to Ikkaku and they went their separate ways. Ruby walked into her room and suddenly felt gross. She had been working hard all day in her room and felt sweaty and covered in dust. She started to take off her clothes and throw them in the hamper. Law walked in and raised his brow at her.

She simply grinned at him and invited him to take a shower with her.

Law washed her thoroughly with many kisses and Ruby made sure to scrub his back in all the places he couldn’t reach.

Law was sitting on the bed while Ruby started to pick out what she needed to take for her trip to Dressrosa.

Ruby quietly packed up what she could into two suitcases. It was a stark difference, she realized, from when she first walked onto her sub. She only had a small duffel bag and a makeup kit then. Now, however, she had so much more than could fit into a suitcase. She gripped the closet door and looked at her shoe rack. She sighed, staring at her heels, wondering if it would be wise to bring heels. She wondered if she was known well enough that she would be recognized. It felt silly, but she wasn’t sure.

She took a deep breath and pulled out a dress that Law had bought her. She stared at the fabric, thinking back to when he had bought this for her in an attempt to cheer her up after her foot surgeries. She walked over to the bed and laid the dress on it quietly. Law watched her every move, a thick tension shared between them. Neither of them wanted her to go to Dressrosa. She could see guilt etched in his features, but she had already told him that she’d do whatever she could to help. And if going to Dressrosa helped, she would do it a thousand times.

Law fingered her dress, a thoughtful look on his face. He looked as if he had something to say, and was chewing through the words. He started to fold the dress silently, caressing the fabric like it was sacred. He had already apologized, he had already thanked her; she supposed there was nothing else to say.

“I’m going to miss you,” is what he said after some silence. He placed the folded dress in her suitcase and Ruby looked over to him.

“You’ll barely notice that I’m gone,” she joked.

“You’re too loud to not notice.”

She smiled softly at him. He walked over to her and hugged her, holding her close. She wrapped her arms around him tightly, both of their anxiety melding into each other’s. They were both worried for each other’s safety. They both didn’t want to be apart.

But Ruby knew her role. She knew that this was important to Law, and she’d be damned if she hindered it. She wanted him to be happy, their relationship could only do so much when he carried such a heavy heart. He needed this, and she understood why.

She pulled away and took his face in her hands. She kissed him softly and then smiled at him. “I love you, mo chuisle.”

“I love you, too,” he said quietly. He kissed her forehead before walking back over to the bed and sitting down.

He watched her pack. She prepared her clothes, shoes, two purses, and some makeup. She put in her facial creams and soaps. She even packed some books to keep her entertained for a short amount of time.

She zipped up her two suitcases and set aside her makeup bag. She prepared her outfit for the following day and set it on the table in the room. She sighed and turned to Law, who had been watching her silently the entire time.

She walked over and sat next to him on the bed. They held hands and stared at the suitcases in the corner. They squeezed their hands together tightly, as if clinging to each other for dear life.

Ruby took a deep breath and looked at Law. She reached for his face and caressed his cheek. He stared at her before closing his eyes and leaning into her hand.

Neither of them seemed to know what to say anymore.

Ruby was scared she would start crying.

She wrapped her arms around his neck and hugged him tightly. Law wrapped his arms around her waist and took a deep breath. They embraced for long moments, breathing each other in. Ruby closed her eyes when tears began to form. Oh, she would miss him so dearly. How could she go without her love for so long?

She didn’t even know how long she would be without him.

“We’re pathetic,” Law croaked.

“Yeah,” Ruby chuckled sadly. She pulled away from him and saw his red tinged eyes. “I love you so much,” her voice cracked. “I love you more than I could ever describe.”

“I-I love you, too.” He stared at her and swallowed before kissing her softly. “I guess I've been in denial, but I can’t believe you’re actually going to leave.”

Ruby sighed. “I know, my love. But this will be good for us. This will work out for us. We’ll come back home and just be lazy. We can sail on the sea doing nothing but eating good foods and having great sex.”

He cracked a smile at her. “Yeah. Whatever you want.” He leaned in and kissed her brow. “Let’s get in bed. I’ll hold onto you.”

Ruby smiled at him. “I’m always down for cuddles.”

They climbed into bed. They laid in the middle of their king sized bed and Law held onto her. Her back was flush against his chest and their legs were tangled together. Law would place gentle kisses on every inch of skin he could.

Ruby closed her eyes and relished the feeling of being in his arms.

Soon this would only be in her memories. Soon she would be alone and unkissed.

She would savor her moments like this because if things didn’t go right, this would be the last time she would ever be this happy.

Obi-Wan Parts I and II

Ok I wasn’t gonna liveblog this but I think I have to.

I decided to liveblog because I need to say I DON’T WANT TO SEE THE YOUNGLINGS GETTING ATTACKED AGAIN. I DON’T WANNA SEE THIS. DID YOU HAVE TO START LIKE THIS. Hey. Whoever said “Let’s show Order 66 again”... I just wanna talk. I just wanna talk that’s all. Where’s Grogu. Also. During the prequel recap, the inclusion of that last line of Yoda’s... are you telling me... we’re gonna get Qui-Gon Force ghost in this series... because I’ll actually die. Reva. I love her. I know she’s evil. That doesn’t mean I don’t love her. You give me a Black girl in sci-fi media, I have to adore her with my entire heart. It is Black Girl Nerd law. My girl Reva is smart. Oh god... Meat from Torchwood flashbacks... Is that Obi-Wan... or is it Uncle Owen... It’s Obi-Wan!!! I just remembered his lizard from RotS. I miss the lizard. That was a good lizard. If this scene with Ben cooking and sitting outside to eat had been released before TFA, the Rey Kenobi theories would have been even more widespread. (I still believe in Rey Nobody but that’s just me) I have not yet seen the Boba Fett series yet (I know I know, I’m a disgrace.) but I know the Tusken Raiders are heavily featured, but are the Jawas in it too? Because right now, seeing a Jawa up close and in HD, it’s so weird. I’m so used to their eyes just being floating glowing yellow dots, and now I can see the eyeballs and a vague shape of a head. I don’t like it. Oh Ben... he needs therapy... I’m gonna interchangeably call him Ben and Obi-Wan depending on how lazy I am when it comes to typing. Sorry. ...It’s... it’s my boy... it’s my baby... it’s Luke... Oh poor Uncle Owen. OOOHHHH OBI-WAN. WATCHING BABY LUKE PRETEND TO FLY. THE NOSTALGIA. Ahhhhhhhh help. I knew I recognized that dumb toy. Oh god help me. I’m not ok. “Walk out into the middle of the desert and bury it in the ground.” Ok I can’t remember RoS very well but isn’t that what Rey did? Why so many Rey parallels? (Also I went and rewatched the scene and yes she did bury it and I forgot all the “I hate the sand” jokes.) “You were once a great Jedi” He’s STILL a great Jedi. I did NOT like that Dark Side-esque music that played when the camera panned back to the Jedi asking Ben for help. Naboo? NOOOO. IT’S ALDERAAN. NO. YOUNG LUKE IS ALREADY TOO MUCH YOU CANNOT SHOW ME YOUNG LEIA AND THINK I WON’T CRY. Oh good. I was about to say “Leia does not seem like the type to enjoy this pampering and getting dressed thing. Yes, she’s definitely princess-like and regal, but this doesn’t feel completely right. Maybe it’s to show the contrast of how they were raised?” but no it’s a decoy. Like mother like daughter. I adore it. Ok there we go. That’s Leia. God I love Breha’s dress. Can I make it... Oh good. The weird elongated original trilogy helmets are back. God I wish I could go back to the 70s and tell that costume designer to not throw those helmets in. Nuh uh. Whoever you are. Get away from my girl Leia. Don’t you even DARE. “When the time comes he must be trained?” “Like you trained his father?” Mmmm. Ahhh. Ughhhhh. *sobbing* That’s the best way I can describe the sounds I made in reaction to that line. I think I reacted the same way from seeing that scene in the trailer too. Oh shit. Wait. WAIT. God I need to go rewatch the prequels. Does Obi-Wan know that Anakin survived Mustafar? Owen doesn’t. Does Obi-Wan? Oh no. Oh no. Wait. Am I going to have to watch Obi-Wan find out that Ani survived and is now Vader? Oh god please tell me I’m misremembering the prequels... Reva’s unhinged. I sorta love it. Oh she’s really unhinged... Good on Owen. “I didn’t do it for you.” Yes you did, a little teeny bit. But also you got a little Jedi boy who won’t stay still and has a death wish like his father before him, so I get it. I meant to say it earlier, but is Reva a youngling who blames Obi-Wan for not stopping Order 66? That’s my prediction. They had to show us those kids for a reason. I might have to go back and rewatch the scene later. Bail Organa!!! She’s such a daddy’s girl. I am so sad. Just looking at them... I’m so sad. I just gasped seeing C-3PO. But then I remembered we KNOW Bail took the droids. Leia literally sends them. But I’m just stupid. Who is this cousin? I don’t like him. Get him out. Yes Leia read him for filth. Bail is such a good father. I am actually dying. I’m gonna cry.

Ok I need to say I am SO glad we got all these Leia scenes. I’ve always thought that Star Wars is too Luke-heavy (and I adore Luke) and I was worried that this series would be too. But no. So far Leia has had 20 times more screen time. I’m happy.

Nope nope nope. Stay away from my girl. Also do I know this guy? I definitely know this guy. Ok that’s incredibly bad. Ok I need to research something later. But I always wondered how Leia knew Obi-Wan in ANH. And I just assumed that Bail told her to send the message to him and trust him. But does this mean they met prior to ANH? “She is as important as he is.” YES. SHE. IS. Obi-Wannnnnn don’t do this. Go get her. Please don’t tell me both lightsabers are in it. I cannot get over the parallel. I can’t get over the burying of Ani’s lightsaber in the sand of Tatooine. Star Wars has to stop managing to find good ways to justify things. First the Kessel Run (I’m still mad about that one. I’m so mad they fixed it.). Now justifying Rey burying Ani’s lightsaber because Ben did it before. I wasn’t even that mad about her burying it, I know some fans were, but now they’ve managed to make it a parallel of what Obi-Wan did. I can’t. Murder me, both are in the box. I want to die. Did he... just purposefully show his lightsaber to that lady... confusion...

THAT WAS FLEA. OH MY GOD. I almost put “Is that Flea” in this post when I was saying I knew the actor, but didn’t want to look STUPID if I was wrong. I literally thought to myself “He looks just like Flea... but he can’t be Flea... that can’t be Flea, Hope you’re being dumb.” and convinced myself it wasn’t him. BUT NO IT WAS FLEA. WHAT THE HELL WHY IS FLEA IN THIS.

Seriously why is Flea here? I’m like beyond shook.

I’m just gonna keep going with Part II here.

Sorry, I’m still on Flea. How. How is he in this show. I’m like... delightfully confused.

Is someone gonna come up to Obi-Wan dealing death sticks or something? A CLONE? Star Wars is really putting Temuera to work this year. Ohhhh Obi-Wan you feel some guilt meeting the clone. Oh my god. Guys, the prequels hurt. They hurt me so much. Ah not death sticks, spice. Close enough. Ooooohhhhh! Hi Kumail! What are you doing here? Wow Haja’s so dramatic. Yeah Obi-Wan that was too easy. “I’m surprised you fell for it.” I’m surprised you’re in this show, Flea. I like how one of the extras looks like she’s stepped out of a neon rave in the 2000s. I LAUGHED OUT LOUD. THAT’S MY GIRL. PUNCH THE STRANGE MAN. Obi-Wan. You really should have at least told her your name or something. And Leia my girl, don’t go with strange men just because they say “Your father sent me.” She’s in orange like her mommmmmmmm. Guys this show is gonna murder me. “Shh. Quiet.” Hey Ben, I think the lightsaber hanging from your holster is more obvious than Leia whispering “Are you a Jedi?” She came from the gutter. Sure. She really came from the Jedi Academy and survived Order 66. Still standing by that theory. Yeah, Old Ben, you should have kept on the gas mask and gave one to Leia too. Hide your face. Also why are you dressed in the literal most stereotypically Jedi outfit? I’m sorry. Was that a dinosaur? “Little green cape. You don’t need those!... And the gloves.” This girl is doing a good job embodying Leia. I really felt the spirit of Carrie Fisher when she looked up at Obi-Wan and continued to put on the gloves. Leia my girl. Obi-Wan looks like the most Jedi Jedi ever right now with his robes. He’s not being subtle. “You think the less you say, the less you give away, but it’s really the opposite.” That’s my girl. This green cape gives off RotJ jungle battle vibes and I love it. (No I can’t remember the name of the jungle planet I’m tired and that’s the least of the things I’ve forgotten so far). “This is no ordinary Jedi.” Cause I’m no ordinary girl, I’m from the deep blue underworld. I do not blame Leia in the slightest for running. Obi-Wan, you did not give the girl much reason to trust you. Oh good. Haja’s a real good guy. What is this spinning lightsaber and why does it feel familiar? There goes Flea. Fun but weird to have him around while we did. Could Jedi always read minds... man it’s been at least 3 years since I last watched all the movies. Do I need to brush up on my Star Wars? “Nothing, you just remind me someone.” I know! I knowww. I knowwwwwww. Someone kill me. “You didn’t know? He’s alive.” NOOOOOO. NOOOOOOOO. NOOOOOOOOOOO. This is painful this is hurting me. I am not ashamed to admit that I literally squeaked hearing the mask breathing.

Well.

That was far more emotionally painful than I thought it would be, and I knew it’d be emotionally painful.

Though honestly the thing that has me reeling the most is that Flea was in this. I don’t know why that’s so shocking to me. I’m not even a Red Hot Chili Peppers fan. And yet I’m still beyond shook.

I gotta make a post about young Leia because she really hit it on the nail. She’s very good.

And I rewatched the youngling scene. There was a little Black girl. Is that Reva? I think so.

All The Songs Make Sense

I am regularly sad that Tumblr doesn't have access to this post, because it's one of my favorite things I wrote during my first go-round with Doctor Who/while processing my feelings about Journey's End, so I am transplanting it here. Which I've thought about doing at least twice before, but I don't think I actually ever did, so here goes nothing.

CONTEXT: I had my music library on shuffle, and 3 songs in a row were either explicitly written about the Doctor/Rose or on my ship playlist for them, and so I said...

Wait, wait, I HAVE A NEW GAME. For the next 20 songs, I will magically relate lyrics to Doctor/Rose. I was this close to turning this game into the fic meme [where you write a tiny story related to/inspired by the song], but since I've never even tried to write Doctor Who fic, it would all pretty much come out sounding the same: me frustratingly working out my issues with Journey's End in terrible, thinly-veiled third person POV. So instead we'll just pluck out lyrics and comment on them, as I do.

And so this was born, bringing into existence lyrical associations that, in some cases at least, persist to this day.

1. Blackbird - Evan Rachel Wood You were only waiting for this moment to arrive

(cue "Rose's Theme" and an otherwise-empty street)

Take these broken wings and learn to fly

(broken wings, a phrase here meaning Ten II and/or her suddenly clipped joy)

2. I Will Show You Love - Kendall Payne

Well that's just too easy:

Watch your dreams like falling stars, heartache made you who you are

3. In This Life - Delta Goodrem I have faltered, I have stumbled, I have found my feet again I've been angry and I've been shaken, found a new place to begin I think that works pretty well for Rose in Pete's World

4. Do You Want to Play? - Jewel (A CHALLENGE, SIR?)

Don't ever give away what you can't take back

Which sort of implies that Rose is an object, but WHATEVER. He essentially handed her off - gave her away - and now the next time the universes magically break down and they're reunited, it'll be too late.

5. Taxi Ride - Tori Amos (ohoho! You think you're gonna throw me for a loop?) We've all been pushed too far today

Almost anywhere in the two parts of the finale, really.

6. Hard Candy - Counting Crows

All the regrets you can't forget Are somehow pressed upon a picture In the face of such an ordinary girl This is where I really wish I was doing the fic meme...not that I actually have an idea, but, you know. I have a mental picture within the TARDIS.

7. Larger Than Life - Backstreet Boys

All of our time spent in flashes of light

YOU THOUGHT I COULDN'T DO IT. BUT I DID.

8. Awake - Josh Groban (oh, I see we're back to the easy ones) We can't stay like this forever But I have you here today

9. Dignity - Hilary Duff Curses! The game has defeated me. This round. (unless we go meta and relate it to my lack of dignity in posting this) [let alone re-posting it]

10. Emily - Jewel One moment here, then gone With no forwarding address

Hard to pass mail between parallel worlds.

11. Ooh Oh - Keri Noble (ooh, oh, challenge?) What if I want you just to walk away From all the pain we have both been through?

*tilts head* I mean, isn't that what he asks in the end? Essentially?

12. What Child is This - Josh Groban *rolls eyes* Way to make it impossible on the very next selection. See, in the fic meme, I could have set something during one of the Christmas specials. But noooo, I had to be lazy. 13. Wait for You - Elliot Yamin (Oh, hell yes. Just watch me.) Rose -> Doctor You're still in love with me Don't leave me crying

Doctor 2 -> Rose Why can't we just start over again, get it back to the way it was? If you give me a chance, I can love you right 14. Goodnight and Go - Imogen Heap

We'll have drinks and talk about things Any excuse to stay awake with you

The chorus would work beautifully for Martha, but this is about as good as I can get for Doctor/Rose. Still, not terrible; better than nothing.

15. A New Day Has Come - Celine Dion Televinita forfeits this round on the grounds that the song mocks and taunts her and sinks her further into the pit of despair.

16. Telling Stories -- Tracy Chapman Sometimes a lie is the best thing

Lie, a noun illustrated in both the sentence "and I'm him," and Rose's kiss.

17. Stay - Beth Hart When I was young, just a little girl I'd sing to the sun & dream with the world Now I got a suitcase full of memories ...I don't know; is a slight stretch. I again wish I was doing the fic meme. Little Rose would be delightful.

18. Still Standing - The Rasmus Wish I could have you by my side Tonight when the sky is burning Think I am going to Turn Left places with this one...

19. What Goes Around Comes Around - Justin Timberlake (BWAHAHA! And yet:) Don't want to think about it Don't want to talk about it I'm just so sick about it Can't believe it's ending this way Sorry, that's my reaction to Doctor Who. Here's the Doctor/Rose bit:

Is this the way it's really going down? Is this how we say goodbye? See, it's slightly different!

20. Buildings - Regina (slightly edited for repetition) She would ask for time And she would beg for time And he would give her time But time is not given and time is not taken Which clearly sums it up.

Also, haha, WAY TO SIGNAL THAT THE GAME IS OVER, LIBRARY ("Doomsday").

...my music library and I have a special relationship. Be quiet.

And finally, just because I really want to share what sparked the game off...

Goodbyes - Jess Anderson Is it so wrong to want to stay now that I've found you?

#kate beckett was so right for that title quote #my own commentary for no. 16 also lives rent-free in my head every time i watch that scene #fic scraps #is that the right term for this post? not entirely but it seems a convenient organizational category #I still haven't ever written doctor who fic but that doesn't mean i couldn't TRY to follow through on the ficlet idea #magic with lyrics #that is a slightly better one and more accurately serves as a great reminder of what I could do with this post if I had any photoshop skill #maybe tumblr at large can do something with it
