EBU can disqualify a country (in this case, Joost and the Netherlands) over allegations, but Israel who is committing mass murder and that is an actual fact is still qualified for Eurovision, because Eurovision isn't political.
Guess what? Stating that you aren't being political, is political.

This is a big one for the Asheera replay.
Context if you've missed things so far: I'm replaying the game as Asheera again for a combination of inspiration, reminders of characterization, and also to solidify how Asheera feels about a lot of the major companion moments in-game. I'm also way farther than this now so I'm probably going to speed up what content the replay posts cover...
Before we get to the main event, I wanted to go over some of Asheera's high level thoughts on the companions so far!
Karlach - Fast becoming good friends. Lots of silly banter shared in camp, on the road, basically wherever. Asheera enjoys hearing Karlach's stories about Avernus whenever she's willing to share them; it gives her better perspective on her oath. To see what some would call a monster, a woman that was on the frontlines of the Blood War, and call her friend?
Lae'zel - Still tense, but Lae'zel is coming around on Asheera. Asheera respects her in combat, the crèche is still a possible cure, and she still knows more than anyone else in the party about illithids. Side note, but Lae'zel thinks the situation between Shadowheart and Asheera is pointless given their condition. It's not even physical? Why bother?
Shadowheart - Growing closer, and the rest of this post kinda goes into why. Asheera is starting to hear her faith as zealotry and that's concerning, but it's also... sad? Asheera hears in her words something that triggers the redeemer's instinct to search for more than what's on the surface. She doesn't respect Sharrans (who would?) and she wonders what lies behind the fanaticism.
Wyll - He's everything he ever said he was and more. Asheera thinks he's just a good guy, and that's honestly something she needs on her side. He's quite flirtatious too, which is a fun break from fighting. She doesn't swing that way, but it's fun watching him fumble with literally everyone in camp.
Gale - Asheera is glad that she was wrong about Gale. He really is just eccentric. Maybe a bit egotistical and prone to overexplaining himself, but he's been a decent man so far and he did explain the entire magical item eating problem pretty quickly. Being able to trust a wizard is always good!
Astarion - He's just fascinating. He's an asshole and a blowhard, but he's at least open about it. That at least gives her something to work with. The whole "pretending not to be a vampire" schtick was getting old anyways. Plus, imagine the look on her fellow paladins' faces when she tells them she actually had a chance at redeeming a vampire spawn? That's worth the effort alone.
Now. Time for Shadowheart and her "oh btw, I worship Shar" reveal. Which, you know... wasn't obvious by the armor she wears to begin with or the gigantic purple tent with Sharran iconography stitched into it. It's always good to have confirmation!
But seriously, this is a really major moment for the Asheera/Shadowheart relationship.
Tumblr media
After Asheera hears this confession, I have to just headcanon that Shadowheart's tent doesn't have the iconography on it. Otherwise this being a "reveal" is completely lost for me. When she first mentions it, Asheera is definitely surprised. Yeah, Shadowheart can be annoyed when Asheera acts altruistically, but it's never been something that comes between them really.
She said 2 in this dialogue by the way. It's a moment where she wants to put all their cards on the table. After a somewhat long discussion, Shadowheart then says something that completely changes the tone of the conversation:
Tumblr media
At this point, Asheera sees Shadowheart. Really, finally sees her. Not the "shield of secrecy" that she preaches blindly, mindlessly regurgitating things she's been told about Shar. Right here, she sees pain in every word that Shadowheart says about her Dark Lady. There is a purpose to it all, that's what she wants to believe.
Not the pain. None of what Shadowheart says here is actually about loss, pain, or suffering. What Shadowheart yearns for is purpose and meaning. That's all Asheera hears, and her heart breaks for this woman that she just thought was going to be a distraction during their adventure.
It's also so massive for Shadowheart's characterization for the same reason. She's so deluded that she then starts spouting propaganda that's completely and totally false...
Tumblr media
Like, Shadowheart?
Baby?
Shar advocates for literally none of that lmao. Sharrans destroy things that aren't Sharran and call that idolatry, they worm their way into organizations with assassination and manipulation to control them, and heretics are anyone that will not accept Shar. The level of brainwashed this girl is operating on with this dialogue is wild and it remains one of my favorite convos in the game even on replay.
For Asheera, she hears the absurd self-justification in Shadowheart's words. She is almost melancholic throughout this conversation except when she's talking about Sharran ideals. Suddenly, she becomes angry. Like it's a learned response from decades of abuse to force her into the mold she's been randomly chosen to fit.
Asheera's heard zealots before. At this point, even if their situationship never becomes anything more, Asheera is convinced that she needs to know more about this woman's pain. Maybe there is a way to help her?
Side-note: Shadowheart's defensiveness towards her own abuser is so fitting that it's kinda hard to watch on replay, knowing what we know about her entire arc. "So long as it has meaning..." what if there is no meaning, Shadowheart? What if it was entirely arbitrary?
That's what Asheera's thinking during this.
Tumblr media
Furthermore, when Asheera learns that she's had her memory deliberately suppressed — and combined with the pains from the wound on her hand — it's basically red flags galore. She's not used to dealing with someone so thoroughly... unaware of her own situation. Asheera is very much a "charge headlong into the situation" type person for the most part, even if charging means a discussion rather than a fight.
Yet Shadowheart thinks that she can have everything she ever wanted if she appeases her own abuser. Horrifying.
Tumblr media
I find this single approval tag so fucking telling. The approval tags can sometimes be broken and multiple in one branch can be directly contradictory depending on the sort of "route" you're trying to bring a companion down, but there's no alternative approval/disapproval in these choices. Everything else is neutral, but this one touches her.
Like, at this point we all know that Shadowheart is a deeply wounded person that wants to believe in something so that she four decades of suffering was for something, but the fact that she approves of you offering to help her with her wound is so... there's an entire essay to be written there.
It's unreal. She goes on and on and on about how Sharrans must remain free of all but their love of Shar. Her (perverse, abusive) love of Shar is literally physically symbolized in the stigmata she carries.
And she approves of Asheera trying to ease that pain? I think Shadowheart rationalizes this as Asheera trying to help her be a "true" Sharran and avoid the pain altogether, but that's not what the dialogue says. Nor is it Asheera's intent. Her intent is to help her ease the pain.
Now, there's lots of ways to read Shadowheart's wound as a depiction of chronic pain, and I don't want to take that away from folks. Love that for y'all, but in "my canon" and with Asheera specifically this is a moment where Shadowheart reaches out, hand held open hoping for anything or anyone to reach back, and Asheera is the first person that doesn't swat her away in fear or call her a failure for not adhering to her religion.
She takes Shadowheart's hand willingly, ignoring all the traps and knives Shadowheart's set up to protect herself. Why was sharing everything so easy? Secrecy is supposed to be what Sharrans need, after all. Why was it so easy for someone to listen to the way she speaks and for them to say, "I'd be lying if I said [Sharran faith] didn't sound convincing."
So long as it has meaning, right?
Also, I keep forgetting to take screenshots of Asheera's Dream Visitor and since they were brought up in one of the Companion!Tav asks...
Here she is in the character creator because I think the next time I see this character they will look quite a bit different lmao. Seeing this person in her dreams doesn't startle Asheera, it's not uncommon for her to dream about this person but then this dream version of that person begins speaking strangely. It makes Asheera immediately distrustful of this thing, whatever it is, once it starts speaking freely and saying things that this person would never have said.

MLQC Housemates with MC Having Toxic!Father
Tumblr media
AU: MC's Dad from the game is her stepfather who later became her adoptive dad so toxic!father is her birth father (I won't disrespect game PaPa) Game Dad is PaPa and Toxic!Father is Dad
TW: Angst, Toxicity, Blood, Asshole Parent
Victor - Red, Lucien - Purple, Gavin - Blue, Kiro - Orange, Shaw - Green, MC (You) - Pink
They were under the impression that your birth dad was the one you took over the company for
They were surprised to find out he was your stepfather that became your adoptive father after your mom passed away but they could tell you saw him as your true father
The few things you mentioned about your birth dad was he's alive, present in your life, and you send him money
"I wonder why Miss Chips doesn't say much about him."
"Probably just aren't as close."
When you told them your dad was coming to visit for a few days and probably staying over the boys were happy to show their hospitality considering this was your dad
They wanted to impress the love of their lives' father
Victor was pissed when he found out the guess room was being used as storage
Mainly Kiro, Shaw, and you had to clean and donate stuff under Victor's supervision since it was mainly your stuff you guys lost your dessert privileges for awhile
Everyone was so busy cleaning the house that they realized later that throughout the process you never spoke highly of your dad and seemed nervous
"I just been busy that's all. I'm totally fine!"
When they first met the guy he seemed to be an okay man, Kiro and you gave him a tour of the house, that's when Kiro realized such awkward tension you kept giving out as you and your dad talked but don't worry Kiro's an amazing talker!
All the boys came home and met your dad they chatted in the living room with a movie playing as the dinner feast was being prepared
You told Victor you would finish the rest of the meal preparation by yourself, he denied but gave in when you smiled at him that you wanted some alone time
The dad seemed to be okay who was tough man inside and out that had a lot of stories to tell and seemed to care about his daughter
Things began going downhill from there
You called everyone to eat and they sat down to enjoy the food as they talked about their day and get to know your dad
They would talk and that's when your dad's behavior became noticeable
He seemed to be "Mr. Know It All" when tried to tell Victor and Gavin on HOW TO DO THEIR OWN JOBS but also passive aggressive comments of him looking down on Kiro's idol profession
Victor made this guy freakin steak and this is how he is repaid by being told how to do his job from a guy who just watches videos on financial
Kiro and you are trying your best to shift the topic and keep the peace
Deeper into dinner your dad begins making jokes throughout about you being about your weight, the way you dress, how you use people
He antagonizes you and your parents a lot
"Hope this one has been growing vertically not horizontally."
"Getting another bite already. What's up, fatty?"
"My daughter doesn't care about me. She just uses me."
That was only a few out of the jokes he told and don't forget the inappropriate ones
Who cares if their jokes if they're antagonizing to someone and just plain mean and also your dad is the biggest one here who's eating the most
Trust me no one is laughing at them and you're trying to play it off but they can tell how hurt you are (can't take a hint that no one likes the "jokes")
"The puddings ready. You can have some right now."
"It's okay. I'm not hungry anymore. I'm going to bed now."
You are really hurting inside as you try walking away fast enough not be seen crying and not even hungry to eat pudding
Everyone is left there eating with this asshole, they just want to get this dinner over with
Gavin hates him more than anybody as not only the way he talks to you but how he's reminded of his own dad
When Shaw makes the same body "joke" to your dad, they have never seen a man get so aggressive so fast before
Once your dad is fed up with Shaw and goes storms off to the guest room is when they clean up fast to go check up on you
"Thanks for ending that dinner, Shaw. If you didn't get him mad, I would have."
"I don't care who he is. Glad that the asshole is gone."
"I can see why Miss Chips doesn't really interact with him much. Why doesn't she say something about it to him?"
"Many children with parents like that feel trapped due to feeling of being indebted to them. She could be acting that way in order to not escalate the situation."
"As much as we don't like the man, we have to be polite for the few days he will be here."
They all go to your room to see you laying down as you blow your runny nose in the dark
Kiro immediately jumps in bed to give you the biggest hug while the others soothe you until you're ready to talk
You mention how he's like this with the antagonizing, rude jokes, and his temper and it being the reason your mom divorced him
Everyones face scrunched with anger as you weren't looking at the thought that this was going on this entire time
For the next few days luckily you've been busy with work to be around him, he was also busy with seeing friends but it still didn't stop his behavior and jokes when no one was around
As much as you wanted to run away from the conversations you couldn't because you were scared of what would happen
It was until one day when Shaw came home before anyone else to hear really loud screaming from a man, he was about to rush to see what was happening until you walked past him
"Welcome home. I'm a-almost done... finishing lunch. Do you want to help out?"
He's never seen you like this with deep red eyes, cheeks tear stained, legs heavily shaking, and snot dripping down
You walked to the kitchen with Shaw trying to convince you to slow down as you weren't in the right state to be cooking
Shaw has never been in a situation like this before so he didn't know what exactly to do, he made the mistake to take his eyes off you to try and call one of the guys
The moment you yelped in pain he immediately dropped the phone, you had tried to cut something but your hands were shaking so much and eyes blurring with tears that you cut your hand pretty badly
Shaw hugged your shaking body tightly as you covered your mouth from sobbing, outside began to pour with rain with heavy thunder
"P-please don't tell my-my dad. Please don't tell him!"
You were carried to the closest bedroom and the farthest from the guest room (Gavin's), Shaw made sure to lock the door
Kiro then Gavin then Lucien came home one by one and immediately panic as they saw a cutting board along with a knife stained with a lot of blood
Shaw ushered everyone into the bedroom and have Lucien properly put what little gauze they had over your deep wound already cleaned with alcohol
Lucien: Please, buy more gauze when you get home. We need it immediately. We're all in Gavin's room.🦋
Victor: What happened? Hardly ever text each other. Almost home, I'll make a quick stop.🕰
When Victor immediately enter Gavin's room, Lucien practically yanked the gauze from his hands to wrap around your hand, it dripping with blood, Gavin wiping away your tears, and Kiro staring at his IPad screen with AirPods in
"What happened?"
"My-My dad got really mad when I-I told him I really didn't like his remarks. That I felt I w-was stepping on eggshells with him-him. He got really mad that I was being se-sensitive and ungrateful, I wasn't try-ing to."
The way you chocked out an explanation as tears poured from your eyes as your hands shook in fear and pain
Victor asked Shaw and Kiro to step outside the door for a moment, he wanted a better explanation
"I came home and heard full on screaming from her dad that I wasn't even close to where they were. That was only the end of the screaming I came home to. MC tried acting as if she was okay and went to continue making lunch. I took my eyes off her for a moment that she cut herself when her hands were shaking. She begged me not to tell that asshole."
"I have security camera footage of the screaming. It's...It's really bad. Miss Chips said that she really didn't want him in her life but was scared this would happen. She said this is common with him."
Kiro's IPad showed the whole incident how you expressing your hurt and discomfort caused your dad to go screaming at you at the top of his lungs as you stood there apologizing and shaking in fear
"FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU!!!"
"I'LL GIVE YOU SOMETHING TO CRY ABOUT!!"
The three's blood ran cold at listening to him screaming with you crying in the background
Everyone laid in bed with you as you rant your feelings, past traumas and they're shocked at the things they're hearing
"He once banged on my d-door with all his strength because...because he-he didn't like that I would close the door."
After you confirmed you no longer want your birth dad in your life and fell asleep, the five men stormed over to the guest room where your dad was
Gavin cop knocked banged on the door and believe me how furious they were to see your dad
Victor gave the most intimidating voice he's ever given full of assertion and anger when telling birth dad he needs to pack up because he is no longer welcome in this house or near you
They couldn't believe this man when he threw a tantrum saying it was just an argument...excuse me argument
"Arguments are a disagreement between two individuals. Not one screaming at the other as the individual stands there in fear."
This guy was really not leaving and even trying to get pass them to get to you
Before Gavin or anyone were on the brink of committing assault charge, Kiro used his evol which shocked them as Kiro hardly ever uses his
"I command you. All within my range of control belongs to me. You will now leave this house and never return. Do not contact any of us. You will also cut off all ties with your daughter, forget her contact info and address."
The man immediately packed up all his things in a hurry as he was under Kiro's evol, they could see in his eyes of him forgetting your info and the location of the house
Victor called an Uber to drive the man to be dropped off in the city, as the car drove away they knew you were finally free from the man
During the rain this man should be careful with lightning strikes as it doesn't choose it's victim...or does it?
You could finally feel at peace when deleting his info from your phone and you no longer sent him money

William deserved so much better
I honestly feel bad for William, not just cuz he died needlessly, but just because the character could've had the potential to be so much better than how he was written honestly.
I didn't like his character since the beginning and not just because he was supposed to be a potential LI to Kara. I was willing to accept him as a LI because I knew that there was a slim chance that they'd make SC canon but then they introduced William as an absolute asshole. Which made everyone question "this is the guy Kara's supposed to like?". Turns out it was a cover yada yada yada, but that doesn't excuse the shitty behaviour he put out. Being undercover and trying to not be close to anyone doesn't have to entail being an absolute dick towards your co-workers, he literally could've just been aloof and standoffish without directly being mean to anyone, and that would've done the same thing to deter your co-workers from befriending you.
Then after Crisis (which I fucking loathe, literally messed up everything), they could've had a fresh start with writing William but they still wrote him as not quite likable but slightly more tolerable ig(imo). He had some good characteristics but his scenes always felt unnecessary and shoehorned into the plot to make the audience like him, which backfired. And the scenes where he hung out with the Superfriends like they'd known him for longer than they actually did felt insulting considering that this was during the fallout with Lena, who despite knowing the Superfriends longer and helping them countless times in moments of crisis was never really shown to be included in any group hang outs or game nights (save for that one time while she was dating James and right after she found out Kara was Supergirl from Lex).
Then by S6b it felt more right that he kinda became work buddies with Kara but still felt like he was just shoved into random scene that didn't quite make sense for him to be there. I didn't quite like the fact that it was him to have scene with certain characters that felt like it should've been with someone closer to the character, like when Alex was freaking out over proposing to Kelly it should've been Kara or J'onn and Kara's deep talk about not being able to being able to do it all felt like it should've been a Danvers sisters moment (it kinda made sense cuz William's a reporter too but so is Nia, literally all of Kara's issues that are linked to being a reporter could've been scenes with Nia but it seems they forget that Nia is even a reporter even though she's literally one of two Superfriends to have an actual job atm, but I'm digressing). The whole William being like the Superfriends' reporter is still stupid to me but that's the only way they could shove him in to 'bond' more with the core characters I guess? Still...idek.
Till the end if you asked me to summarise his character it would be him saying "I became a reporter to tell the truth" and "Did I mention I love to bake". At times its like they want us (the audience) to think he's smart (like him outsmarting Nyxly) but when faced with another dangerous situation (him being a human alone with Esme faced with Lex and Nyxly), the only thing he did right was telling Esme to hide without scaring her. He saw the alert of the security being breached and yet he didn't think to call for any kind of help? It's even worse that he had his phone with him the entire time, it's not like Lex & Nyxly portaled straight into where he was either, they took the fucking lift he absolutely had the time to dial any one of the Superfriends and yet all he did was take a knife and was spotted immediately. Even when he was in the chair he still could've called someone but instead chose to record this. We all know Lex monologues way too fucking much, he had time. But instead he died a completely avoidable death.
Like I'm sorry the writers did you so dirty William, they truly did you so dirty. William, like many characters on this show, deserved so much better than what was written. Even though I never particularly liked William, I sure as hell didn't want him dead of all things, what would've been better is that after he got shot in S5 is that he resign from CatCo and gone back to London. I know a lot of people in the fandom joked that we wouldn't care if he died but that absolutely doesn't mean that we wanted him to. We just wanted William to take more of a supportive role so that the main characters had more screen time and development before the show ended for good.
I didn't expect this to be turn out this long but I guess I had more thoughts than I expected. Anyways, everything I've stated is purely my own opinion, when I say "we" it's purely from what I've seen, I'm not trying to speak for anyone else. That is all.

in another life
part two
Stiles assures Theo answers for all of their questions -god knows they have so many- tomorrow. Theo's reluctant at first, doesn't intend to let go of Stiles's words hanging in between them: "You think she's alive?" Eventually, Theo nods, finding something in Stiles's eyes and placing his trust in him. An odd feeling of protectiveness settles in Stiles's stomach at the vulnerability that Theo freely displays - in the past, he used to act guarded like everyone was out to get him. Granted, Theo had conned most of them before with charm and fake tears, and it's not above him to try it again if Theo could gain something worthy from it. But Stiles doesn't feel the usual tingle in his bones when he meets some shady criminal mastermind. His instincts have gotten him this far, so he gives it credit.
Stiles sighs. Innocent until proven guilty. He hopes Deaton has answers that expose the truth.
In the meantime, they have saddled him with more responsibility: bringing Theo home with him. Theo refuses to be stuck with either Liam or Mason any longer, it is unwise to put Theo alone with Melissa, and stupid to leave him unattended. So Stiles is the only viable choice. Plus, Theo thinks they're together. It only makes sense. Maybe.
It probably won't to his dad initially, but hey, after a while of normalcy, even he will acknowledge the need for something to go down - even dressed as Theo Raeken.
•••
They're in Stiles's Jeep, driving home to the Stilinski's, and it is a little disconcerting how Theo seems to be accustomed to his car. Theo had seen and been in the Jeep before, but this is different. He's too comfortable in the cramped space, even knows how to operate Stiles's defective radio. And the way he leans against the seat on the passenger's side and knows where to keep the screwdriver Stiles uses to manipulate the ignition is boggling his head worse than the snow outside.
Stiles draws in a breath, glancing sideways to his quiet company. "So, um, Deaton," he says, "we're going to Dr. Deaton tomorrow."
Theo turns to him, frowning. "What kind of doctor? Are you taking me to a shrink? Babe, I'm not crazy. What happened is freaky, but you have to believe me."
Okay, the babe thing, they're going to have to iron that wrinkle as soon as possible. Not even Lydia called him babe when they dated, and certainly not Malia. It's a cosmic joke that the once bane of his existence gets to call him that first. "No, he's not a shrink," Stiles promises him. "He's a veterinarian. But he knows about these things."
Theo arches a brow, "He knows about teleportation?"
"Telepor-" Stiles creases his forehead, jerking his head to Theo. The latter is expectant when he looks back. Stiles blinks, disbelieving and a little horrified. There's also a small bubble of hysteria beginning to form in his stomach. Somehow, this takes the cake in the weirdness of the situation. Because, of course, Theo also doesn't remember he's a chimera, does he? Blowing a heavy breath, he turns back to the road. He rubs the side of his temple, where it's starting to hurt, and purses his lips. "Yeah, sure. Teleportation."
Silence hangs in between them for a moment, Stiles sighing when he takes the last turn to his street. He can feel the burn of Theo's stare at the side of his face.
"You really don't remember we're together?" Theo sounds genuinely small when he speaks. "Then why are you here, if not to take me home? The two -Liam and Mason- are accusing me of having amnesia. But it's you who can't remember."
Stiles opens his mouth, but he doesn't know what to say. He knows that if he tells Theo that he remembers an illusory life, it's only going to invite more questions Stiles has no answers yet. In honesty, he's still reeling until now, and he's too tired to consider diving into research mode immediately, much less form a cohesive plan other than to bring Theo to Deaton first. And the best thing for them both to do before then is rest. They can't do that if Stiles stays up all night convincing Theo that they're not even friends, that he was a lying, conniving chimera asshole that tried to break his pack once, before turning a new leaf and helping them, and then disappearing on them like a bubble one day. Oh, and yeah, that it's so twisted for him to think his sister was alive when he had allowed her to die when he was nine.
No. Rest, Deaton, and then fuck up some shit - Stiles is doing this in that order.
"Hm," is what he ends up saying. Stiles pulls in the driveway, noting the blue truck already parked there. He's relieved to find a change of topic. He clears his throat, pointing at the vehicle. "That's your truck. Corey, Mason's boyfriend, drove it here."
Theo doesn't look away from him for the entire minute it takes Stiles to turn the engine off and gather his belongings. When he looks at Theo, that's only when the other man lowers his head and breathes. Theo nods and gets out of the car, moving towards the truck. Stiles silently prays for more strength if this is how awkward it is going to be for the whole evening until the morning.
Theo is studying his blue truck, eyeing it with trepidation. Stiles slings his messenger bag and stands beside him. Theo turns to him, shaking his head. "This isn't my car."
Stiles moves to the bed of Theo's pickup. "It is," he tells Theo. 
Stiles is, unfortunately, familiar enough with this car, and not with pleasant memories. Stiles lifts the haphazardly strewn cloth covering most of the space of the truck bed and makes a noise of disgust with what he finds underneath. It was definitely tidier before.
Theo also peeks under the cloth and pulls his face in a similar reaction. An alarming amount of empty plastic noodle cups and take-out boxes litter the covered area. "It can't be mine because I'm not crazy for instant ramen."
Stiles drops the cloth and walks to the driver's seat. He cups his hands on either side of his eyes and looks inside through the window. He finds a folded blanket at the backseat and a pink sweater on top of the pile of clothes. The chimera wore the hell out of those, Stiles remembers grudgingly. Transferring his scrutiny on the passenger side, he sees empty water bottles and coke cans, and old receipts. What the hell has Theo been up to that he can't even throw his trash out or attempt to be less sloppy?
One thing is sure, though. The car is where Theo lives; the pizza in the backseat looks stale but not molded. He faces Theo and gives him a grim nod, "Let's discuss the condition of your car and your unhealthy lifestyle tomorrow, yeah?"
Theo huffs, wanting to protest and eyeing his car in disgust, but shrugs in agreement.
•••
His father is working the night shift, so explaining Theo is a problem for future Stiles, which makes him sag in relief under the hot spray of his shower. When he's finished, he changes into clean sweatpants and an old Christmas ugly sweater and goes back to his room.
Theo is already sitting on his temporary bed on the floor. Stiles refuses to make him sleep on the couch where the kitchen and knives are near. At least, inside his room, he can fight him should Theo attempt anything at all. Stiles has gotten better at hand-to-hand combat since the FBI, and also a very light sleeper and sometimes prone to insomnia, especially on stressful occasions like this. Any minor shuffling from Theo will alert him. Not that he thinks Theo will do anything. His impulses tell him that Theo's memory dilemma is not made-up, and he's truthful this time, but it's always better to be safe than sorry.
Theo looks up when he enters, offering a small smile. Stiles's eyes catch sight of the outline of a necklace hidden underneath the collar of Theo's borrowed shirt. Stiles's clothes look a bit tight on him but otherwise, more comfortable than the dirty jeans he was wearing earlier. 
"It's so weird to see your old bed," Theo says, looking at the said bed. "Noah brought you a bigger one so that we can share when we visit. I wonder what happened to it?"
Stiles drops onto his bed with a small bounce. He didn't expect that. "Oh, um,"
Theo meets his eyes, "And Roscoe," a shadow crosses his face. "You took down all of the polaroid pictures we put of us. You even replaced the screwdriver that I gave you with an old one."
He sounds so betrayed that Stiles is stunned by what he's hearing. What startles him most, though, is: "You know my Jeep's name?"
At this question, Theo looks downright affronted. But Stiles has every reason to be surprised. His mom, his dad, and Scott are the only people apart from him who knows his Jeep's name -not another soul. Not even Lydia.
"Of course, I know your Jeep's name," Theo responds with a deepening scowl. "We've been together for four years, Stiles."
Stiles raises a hand to halt Theo as his cogs turn in his head. A swell of panic takes root in him. This memory thing is more serious than he initially thought. Theo's not only hallucinating a different life but he also somehow knows things he shouldn't. The screwdriver compartment, his broken radio, his Jeep's name -what else does he know that he isn't supposed to?
"Okay," Stiles finally says, lowering his hand and barrier from Theo, who's still glowering. It seems he has lost his patience with Stiles, as well. If this continues, Stiles might snap, too. So he says as appeasing as he could. "Let's say that whatever happened to you affected our memories of each other. But we'll go to Dr. Deaton for answers tomorrow, and then we can go back to our normal lives. Yes? Do you trust me?"
As soon as he says it, Stiles wants to take it back. It seems like a strange concept to ask Theo, of all people, to trust Stiles after everything. As crazy as Stiles actually trusting Theo. But here they are.
Theo doesn't reply for a long time, but he looks pensive and considering as he glares. In the end, he huffs in surrender, shoulders drooping in defeat. For the first time, the bags under his eyes become more prominent in his features. He looks so weary, hurt, and confused. Stiles is well acquainted with that look. It's the look of someone who hasn't been sleeping well. With the state of Theo's truck, Stiles has no problem picturing the man twist-and-turning to find a good position and not finding any.
Theo dips his head, replying with a rough voice, "Yeah. I trust you."
Before Stiles can say any more, Theo gives him his back and reclines on his mattress. He pulls the covers on himself, like a shield, and mumbles good night to Stiles.
Sighing, Stiles turns the desk lamp off and lays on his bed, staring at the ceiling for who knows how long. After a while, he exhales and rubs the bridge of his nose. His body is exhausted, and so is his mind, but they're not shutting off like they're supposed to. He almost wishes he is back in his dorm room in Virginia, staying up to piece the puzzles of a case. He has dealt with mundane human crises for so long that coaxing the supernatural mojo back appears to be an impossibly draining affair.
When he glances back at Theo on the floor, he pauses as he notices it. There's a blank inked mark on Theo's nape: a tattoo that Stiles knows for sure he didn't have the last time they saw each other. He turns to his side to look closely at it.
The tattoo is of a circle interlaced with three interconnected ovals. It reminds him closely of Derek's triskelion tattoo. But unlike Derek's, Theo's mark gives him an ominous feeling.
Because Stiles is sure, it isn't an optical illusion when it glowed in the darkness of his room for a second.

Yandere Narancia x Reader
warnings: violence, blood, stalking, angst
----
A sinking feeling settled deep in the pit of your stomach as you hurriedly ducked behind the corner of a pastry shop. You clenched your purse closer to yourself, chest heaving as the reality of the situation finally sunk in.
He wasn't going to stop, was he? You had thought he moved on, and yet here he was--stalking you from a distance. Did he not know that you'd noticed him? And how did he always know where you were?
You closed your eyes and took a deep breath, remembering all of the events that led up to this.
You first met Narancia two months ago.
It was late in the evening and you had just finished buying groceries. You were in a hurry, trying to get back to your apartment before the sun went down.
About five minutes into the trek back home, two bulky street thugs approached you from the shadows. Before you could even react, one of them roughly ushered you into an alleyway. The other stood at the entrance, glancing around for any witnesses.
Your heart leapt to your throat when you spotted the glint of a knife. The groceries clutched in your hand slipped through your fingers and clattered to the ground with a damning thud.
"Look--there doesn't have to be any trouble," the dark-haired man said in a rush. "Just hand over the cash and you can go."
You were frozen in shock, unable to move. You knew that you should reach for your bag and do as you were told, but for some reason you couldn't take your eyes off of the blade.
Would he kill you after he took the money? He couldn't be serious about letting you go unscathed, right? You'd seen their faces. But trying to run wouldn't end well for you either--you were unarmed and outnumbered.
Apparently you had taken too long because all of a sudden, the knife was pressed up against your cheek. A small bead of blood trailed down from where it dug into your skin. You felt the burning sensation of hot tears prickling the corners of your eyes.
"Hurry it up already! Do you want this to get more ugly?" The man snarled, drawing closer to your face.
You tried to flinch away, but you couldn't retreat any farther--your back was pressed up against the cold brick wall. He had you cornered.
As the knife pressed down harder, a loud gurgling sound suddenly broke the silence. Startled, the thug withdrew slightly to look towards the entrance where his partner was stationed. It gave you enough time to push him away with both of your arms. He stumbled backward with a yelp so you made a break for it.
His hand shot out to grab you again, but before he could wrap his meaty fingers around your wrist, another hand reached out and pulled you forward. You were pushed behind the newcomer protectively as he stood in front of you like a human shield.
"Get your hands off of them, you bastard!"
Your savior promptly aimed a well-timed punch straight into the thug's nose with an enraged shout. The man let out a pained cry and clutched at his nose as blood spurted forth, staining his hand with a river of red.
But the new arrival didn't stop there--he rushed forward to land another punch and when the thief fell down to the ground, he reeled his foot back and began to furiously kick the man's curled up body. He cursed exclamations of "Asshole!" and "Motherfucker!" inbetween kicks, each strike seeming to gather more and more force.
You were immensely grateful for his help, but you couldn't just stand around and watch as he beat a man to death, deserving or not.
Taking a tentative step forward, you stuttered out, "H-hey! I--I think that's enough! He's unconscious...!"
Your words seemed to break him free of whatever trance he'd been put under. He froze mid-kick before lowering his foot back down to face you. The rage that had previously occupied his face was all but gone, instantly replaced with a good-natured smile. He subtly stepped in front of the bloodied and beaten body, almost as if to hide it from your view.
"Hah--sorry about that! I guess I got a bit carried away," he said sheepishly, scratching the back of his neck. "I had to make sure he couldn't get back up to hurt you. I'm Narancia, by the way!"
He held out his hand eagerly for a handshake.
It was spattered with blood.
You stared at it for a moment, unsure what to say.
"Oh! Whoops," Narancia immediately withdrew his hand to wipe the blood off on his...skirt--thing? When his hand was sufficiently clean enough, he offered the limb back out to you.
This time you took it without question, not wanting to upset him. He'd saved you, but you didn't know what to make of his casual regard for being covered in blood. It screamed danger.
Narancia shook your hand vigorously.
"(Y/n)," you introduced. You didn't see any harm in giving him your first name. "Thank you. If you hadn't come, I don't know what would've happened..."
As you went to pull your hand back, his hand tightened for a moment. You tugged a bit harder and he finally released it, his hand twitching at his side.
A moment of silence passed before he noticed your discarded grocery bag. The contents were splayed across the concrete, having rolled out of your bag when you dropped it earlier. His eyes widened at the sight, and he snapped into action.
"Ah! Your groceries! I'll get them up for you!"
Before you could protest, he was already moving to pick up all of the fallen items. Once they were all gathered up and placed inside your bag, he strolled back over to you. You thanked him and reached out to grab the bag, but he pulled it back at the last moment.
"Hey--it's really dark out! It would be safer if I walked you back home, right? There could be more of those guys still hanging around," he said, looking at you worriedly.
You didn't exactly want to lead a stranger back to your apartment, but you didn't want to walk home alone either. It was dark and the streets would be even more dangerous than before. Logically, you would be safer with him--someone who genuinely seemed concerned about your well-being.
You nodded. "Alright."
The two of you carefully stepped over the other body blocking the exit, Narancia holding out an arm to steady you. You smiled softly, your anxiety finally settling as you both walked. Narancia chattered away about his favorite foods and how you had the same tastes as him, having noticed the pizza sauce in your bag. You told him about your favorite recipe and he listened keenly, despite admitting that he wasn't much of a cook himself.
Before long, you were already standing at the entrance to your apartment building. You had such a great conversation with Narancia that you completely lost track of time. Once again, you sincerely thanked him for all of the help. The night could've ended much worse for you.
As you took your bag back, you paused at the feeling of his hand on your cheek. You looked up at his face, which had gone completely blank. All except for his eyes, that is. There was something dark swirling in the depths of his violet eyes--some emotion that you couldn't put a finger on.
You felt a shiver crawl down your spine and you pulled away, covering the trail of dried blood with your own palm. "I'll clean this up later. It's not as bad as it looks," you said reassuringly.
His eyebrow twitched once, and then a wide smile stretched over his face. "I've been cut before in the same place! And look--" Narancia pointed to his unblemished cheek. "No scar, or nothin'! It should heal just fine, I promise!"
You simply smiled back, inwardly wondering how many fights he must have gotten into in his youth. It was probably a lot, if tonight was anything to go by.
"Well, it was nice to meet you, Narancia," you said sincerely. "I wish it had been under better circumstances, but still--thank you. Be careful getting back home yourself, okay?"
Narancia seemed extremely touched by your words, an expression of complete adoration creeping over his face. He nodded enthusiastically. "I will! I'll see you around, yeah?"
"Of course! It's a small world."
And that had only been the beginning.
Even during your first encounter with Narancia, the signs had always been there. When the news reported the deaths of two serial muggers the day after, you hadn't even thought to look closer at the faces pictured on the TV. You'd gone on with your day, too worried about getting ready for work and not even thinking to put two and two together.
Everything started out fine. You would "happen" to run into him, and the two of you would get along very well--laughing and giggling over some silly joke of his, or even discussing your favorite music artists over lunch. It didn't take long for him to wiggle his way into your social circle, soon becoming a treasured friend among few.
Unfortunately, all good things come to an end eventually.
You don't know precisely when it happened, but Narancia started to become very...clingy. Slowly but surely, it was like your entire life began to revolve around him and him alone.
Whenever you wanted to make plans to hang out with another friend, he was always there to convince you otherwise. He would tell you about how he only had his family to talk to, and that you were his first real friend in years. It would make you feel bad for even considering leaving him alone.
But then he started to insert himself into your life even more, pushing the boundaries as far as he could.
You'd come home to find him waiting on your couch, uninvited. If you hadn't recognized his familiar clothing, you would have called the police.
The door had been locked--only you had the key.
"Narancia?" you said, desperately wanting to give him the benefit of the doubt. "How did you get in? The door was locked..."
"Oh, that?" He slapped a hand over his pocket. "You weren't here so I just used my knife! I hope you don't mind!"
You were at a loss for words. The way he admitted it so casually left you with an uneasy feeling. Did he really think breaking and entering was acceptable behavior? You could overlook many things when it came to Narancia, but this was too much.
"...I actually do mind, Narancia."
"Don't worry, nothing's damaged or anything!" Narancia assured you, standing up to show you the intact doorknob. He looked almost proud.
"T-that's not the issue here," you sputtered weakly. "You just broke into my apartment--why did you do that?"
He finally seemed to realize that something was wrong. His face scrunched up and he looked at you with uncertainty. "I thought people who were dating are supposed to let themselves in...?"
Dating...? Where had he gotten that idea from?
"You think--" You stopped to gather your thoughts.
Athough he was greatly overstepping your boundaries, you still couldn't bring yourself to treat him too harshly. Narancia was a child at heart, he couldn't comprehend why what he was doing was wrong. You had to be careful with this.
You took a deep breath. "Narancia," you started. "What made you think that we were dating...?"
"We've gone on so many dates already!" He looked at you as if it were obvious, gesturing wildly. "And we hang out all the time! You have my phone number--of course we're dating!"
You slowly shook your head. "No, Narancia. We hang out as friends. We're not dating."
Narancia looked like a lost puppy. Your heart clenched painfully inside your chest. "Then what do I need to do so that we can date? Please, tell me! I'll do whatever you want!"
You wanted so badly to reach out and comfort him, but you knew if you did it would only give him the wrong idea. He needed to learn that your friendship wouldn't end in romance, as you didn't feel the same way. You saw Narancia as too much of a kid, almost like a younger sibling.
"I'm sorry," you apologized solemnly, averting your gaze. "I don't see you that way. I can only be your friend--nothing more." Better to honest with him, than to dance around the issue.
Narancia marched up to you and gently grabbed your chin, tilting your face up so that you would look him in the eye. "Am I moving too fast?" he asked, desperate to understand. "Is that it? I'm sorry if I did something wrong!"
You were trying to spare his feelings, but it seemed like he was going to make you say it outright. "You're barely an adult, Narancia. I see you more as a younger brother."
The emotion that flickered through his eyes in that moment could only be described as despair. "B-brother...?" His expression crumbled under the weight of your words.
You looked away as guilt began to eat at you.
"I--" His voice sounded choked, and you could tell that he was trying his best to hold back tears. Narancia lowered his hand and stepped past you, toward the front door. "I've gotta--go." A sniffle. "I'll...call you later, okay...?"
From that day onward, nothing was ever the same.
Narancia would send phone call after phone call, begging you to rethink your decision. He told you that he would do whatever you wanted--that he would change and become more mature if you would just see him as a man. You told him that you weren't looking for a relationship, but even that didn't work.
Eventually, you were forced to make a tough decision. He was becoming too overbearing, refusing to listen to anything you had to say. You couldn't even get through dinner without your phone blowing up from multiple missed calls. There was a point where enough was enough, and you truly believed that this was that point.
You grabbed the phone and held it up to your ear.
"(Y/n)! You answered! Just hear me out, what if I--"
"Narancia," you said, cutting him off. "If you won't respect my wishes for us to remain friends, then I don't think I want to see you anymore. I'd hate to lose you as a friend, but this is getting to be too much...
There was nothing but silence on the other end.
"Hello?" you tried. "Narancia...?"
You were answered with a click as the phone abruptly hung up. As you set the phone back down on the table, you tried to gather your thoughts into something coherent. Perhaps it was for the best that he responded in that way--you definitely needed some space.
The following few days were like a blessing. It seemed that Narancia had finally accepted that he couldn't woo you over. The phone calls stopped completely after that night. You didn't see him around town anymore, but you understood why. Sometimes distance was the best cure for unrequited crushes.
Apparently, you were wrong.
It started a week after your last phone call with Narancia.
Whenever you would leave your apartment building, you'd start to get the feeling that you were being watched. The hairs on the back of your neck would stand up, and you would feel on edge for the rest of the trip. Sometimes you'd even see a glimpse of familiar colors out of the corner of your eye, but when you turned to look, it would disappear.
You didn't want to believe that it was him, but your suspicions were finally confirmed.
You opened your eyes to stare out at the wall of your hiding place, purse still clutched tight to your chest. Your breathing was elevated, your anxiety skyrocketing. He'd been following you all this time, hadn't he?
Not knowing what else to do, you dug into your purse, fumbling for your phone. You could call the police. Except, you didn't have any proof that he was stalking you...and he hadn't done anything to you yet. Would they even take you seriously? What were you supposed to do...?
A thought suddenly occurred to you.
...You still had Narancia's number.
Hands shaking, you brought your phone up to your face to scroll down to his contact information. The digits stared back at you ominously as your finger hovered over the call button. You would tell him to stop, and if he didn't--you would call the police.
You finally pressed dial, waiting with bated breath. There was an echoing click as the call was immediately picked up.
"Narancia," you quickly whispered into the speaker. "Please stop this. I know you've been following me. It's scaring me..."
"You called! I knew you would!"
His response didn't come from the phone.
The phone slipped between your fingers as you looked over. Narancia was leaning up against the opposite wall with his arms crossed, a victorious grin lighting up his face. You felt the world tilt around you.
He pushed himself off of the wall to come closer.
"I asked the gang for relationship advice and they told me about this old saying!" Narancia scratched the back of his head. "What was it again...? Oh, right! Something about setting the love of your life free, and if they come back it was meant to be!"
You froze when he threw his arms around you, hugging you tight. He held on to you as if you would disappear, your face pressed up against his toned chest. You wanted to say something--anything, but you couldn't seem to formulate any words.
"And you called! You came back! Looks like it was meant to be, (Y/n)!"

I am Thinking about Vesemir/cubs... Ves loves his cubs, they love him, but as the head of the wolf school when they're in Kaer Morhen he has full rights to fuck them as he likes. That doesn't change when G brings his boyfriend J home for the winter. That's fine, Ves is happy for them, but he's still going to fuck G over the dinner table to remind them both who G belongs to. It doesnt change when G brings Ciri home, either (cont)
(cont) I'm not thinking about Ves/Ciri as much, more that Ciri gets used to seeing her new dad and uncles bent over and getting fucked. Ves teaches her about monsters while one of his cubs keeps his cock warm and it just turns into part of live at the keep.
Jaskier is immortal I'd just like to mention that. It's not important to the story but it's important to me that you know 😌
tags: voyeurism, group sex, sex in front of a minor (but she doesn’t participate and no one acts sexual towards her), ask to tag
__
"He doesn't like me." Jaskier turns to his side and kicks his arm and legs over his boyfriend's body. "He really doesn't." He knows he's nearly forty, and is acting very much like he's ten with the petulant little pout he's got on but he's upset. 
Geralt's quote unquote dad doesn't care for him at fucking all. 
"That's not true," Geralt grumbles, wrapping an arm around Jaskier's waist. "He's actually happy for us."
"Well it doesn't seem like it!" Geralt hums, and Jaskier huffs as he buries his face into his neck. 
"I'm sorry." 
Geralt presses a kiss to his shoulder, a smile on his face, and tells him to go to sleep.
Jaskier wakes to a gentle sway of a mattress. It's still much too early in the morning-- his fringe tickles his face, hair is sticking out in all directions, no doubt, the lack of satin pillowcases absolutely destroys it's fizz-free existence and don't even get him started on-- Right. The bed's swaying. He turns, looking for Geralt in dusk's dim light.
Only to find him staring back at him, one hand clasped over his face, stomach pressed to the bed and a hand, neither his nor Jaskier's, tied up in his hair. Jaskier traces his eyes from the curve of his boyfriend's back to a man stood behind him, plowing into his ass. 
He nearly falls off the bed when Vesemir looks back at him, a wolfish grin on his face. Geralt moans then, forcing Jaskier to rip his eyes away from Geralt's father and watch the way his hand tightens over his mouth though he's already been caught. 
Well shit. Vesemir's fucking his son. Who so happens to be Jaskier's boyfriend. 
Fuck. Okay, uhm—
That's fucking hot. Jaskiers shoves the blankets off of himself, getting to his knees by Geralt's torso, looking up at Vesemir with the most adorable puppy eyes he can muster. 
He doesn't know how they do this, if they call Vesemir 'Sir' or perhaps 'Daddy." All he knows is that he wants to find out. Vesemir pauses, grabbing Geralt by the torso and flipping him over, the oldest witcher's muscle straining under the soft linen of his nightshirt. Fuck, Jaskier's already so goddamn hot for his boyfriend's Daddy. 
"Open yourself up, Pup." And Jaskier has been in many a number of sexy situations, always one to top but oh Melitele, if Vesemir told him to shove ice up his asshole during the Kaer Morhen winters, Jaskier would without question. He makes quick work of it, laying on his back so he's parallel to his boyfriend after he grabs the lube from their bedside table. Geralt's mouth is open in a soundless moan, amber eyes unfocused and glossy-- "Kiss my boy while you do, Jaskier." 
Geralt's head turns to face him, hazed over eyes settled on his face as he jolts back and forth from his father's fucking. Jaskier dives in to meet his lips, hungrily letting Geralt's tongue slip into his mouth, spit slicking over their lips in their filthy fucking kiss. He manages to uncork the vial, spilling it over his fingers and pressing them to his hole as Geralt sucks on his tongue. 
"Good boys. You're both mine, aren't you? My very good pups. Hurry up, Jaskier, I want you to be full of my wolf when he cums. Jaskier shoves a finger in, whining at the sudden stretch, a sound that Geralt readily swallows with tongue and teeth. Jaskier's much more careful with the second finger, working quickly and brushing against his prostate with everything thrust as he works up to three. 
"Get on his cock, songbird." Jaskier scrambles onto his knees, straddling over Geralt's cock and holding it in position as he slowly sinks down on it, facing Vesemir as his tongue lolls. 
"Can I ride him?" Geralt is, after all, Vesemir's pup, just as Jaskier is now, apparently. The idea of being owned by Vesemir makes him feel all warm-- not in the way he feels warm with Geralt, but more that he's cared for entirely with Vesemir. Like... Like Vesemir knows what's best for him, will care for him and all Jaskier needs to do is submit-- he doesn't know, it's not like be can find his fucking words right this fucking minute, speared on Geralt's cock and Vesemir looking at him with that pleased little smile. 
The oldest witcher nods, and starts fucking Geralt faster as Jaskier begins riding him with frenzy, high, helpless moans escaping his parted lips as he fucks himself down on his boyfriend's cock. 
"Good boy, you both are so good, doing just as I want." Geralt whimpers from behind Jaskier; the bard can feel just how desperately he wants to thrust up into Jaskier's ass, and is absolutely enamoured with the fact that he doesn't simply because Vesemir hadn't told him to. 
Geralt begins to thrash underneath them, gripping at the sheets, toes curling from where his legs are thrown over Vesemir's shoulders. Jaskier knows those actions better than he knows himself, can practically imagine the red of Geralt's face as he desperately tries to keep from cumming without permission, teeth clenched and head tilted up--
"Cum," Vesemir orders, and Jaskier feels Geralt spurt inside him, pumping him full of witcher cum. His own orgasm, on the other hand, catches him by surprise as it tears out of him-- he thinks he can hear Geralt shout, but it's overwhelmed by his own scream as he cums up his fucking chest. 
He collapses forward, and Vesemir catches him just before he fall. "Boy." Jaskier hums in reply. 
"Daddy," Geralt whimpers from behind them, lax. 
"Just a second, Geralt." Daddy's eyes turn back to his, worry in his face. He helps Jaskier off Geralt's cockz his own cock still hard. "Are you okay? Use your words, Jaskier." 
Jaskier lays down with Vesemir's guidance, curling into Geralt's side. "I'm okay, Daddy," he whispers, mind still swimming. Melitele, he can't remember the last time be was in subspace, if ever. It feels a bit different from domspace, but pleasurable all the same.
"Good. I'm going to cum over both you and Geralt. Okay, pup? I'm going to mark you both mine, remind you who you belong to." Geralt shuffles from beside him eyes equally glassy as his as they both mumble thier yes daddy's. Vesemir kneels between Geralt's and Jaskier's thighs, stripping his gorgeous cock with a slow hand. Jaskier wants to reach up, wrap his hands around it,. It finds himself with too-heavy limbs. 
"Eskel, Lambert, stop hovering outside and come give your Daddy a hand," Vesemir calls, voice stern. The wolves sheepishly walk in faces read as they drape themselves over Vesemir's back, one hand gripping his cock jut as another tilts Vesemir's head back so Eskel can kiss him. Jaskier watches, awestruck at how beautiful they are; Lambert's other hand wraps around Vesemir's waist and traces up his side, thumbing over a nipple before giving it a hard pinch-- 
Vesemir cums with a grunt, Eskel moaning into his mouth and Lambert rutting against his hip as Vesemir covers both Jaskier and Geralt in cum, painting them white and painting them his.
Vesemir smiles down at them before curling behind Jaskier as Eskel and Lambert join in on the cuddle, the four of them sharing sweet kisses as he and Geralt relish in their headspace. He realizes that it wasn't that Vesemir didn't like him, just that he wasn't sure how to act around him quite yet. Jaskier makes sure to make it abundantly clear when he turns his head and presses a slow, perfectly filthy kiss to Vesemir's lips. 
Jaskier quickly learns that the wolves don't always fuck in the room. In fact, it seems that they rarely fuck in a bedroom. When he and Geralt come upstairs, hand in hand and clean from the hot springs below, Eskel is bouncing on Vesemir's cock, Lambert setting the table like Vesemir and Eskel aren’t fucking at breakfast. Eskel gags comically when he notices Jaskier's and Geralt's hands intertwined, the white wolf turning a pretty red before snarking at his brother to shut up. 
Eskel settles on Vesemir's cock, warming throughout breakfast and fucks him over the table at the end. Jaskier learns that being in Kaer Morhen, being Vesemir's, means being fucked mindless whenever, wherever. It's a pretty fantastic fucking thing. 
On the Path, Jaskier and Geralt easily slip back into their dynamic, Jaskier domming for his lover, and Geralt being the ever-wondeful sub. Of course, they don't get long to fuck, fight monsters, and write song-- they find Geralt's child surprise, dirty and afraid, in the woods months later. It’s a miracle she's still alive-- they make haste back north, towards Kaer Morhen.
The keep is empty for the three seasons of the year, but aplenty food grows in the garden, and they spend the year healing. The weather slowly gets colder, and one October day, Vesemir pushes through the front door, curious and surprised, and most of all, glad that they're all safe. 
The rest of the wolves make it home soon enough, and it isn't till then that Jaskier remembers the sheer amount of fucking they do during the winter. He doesn't have a chance to worry about it, not when he sees Lambert cockwarming Vesemir in the library as the old witcher teaches Ciri about monsters. She looks at peace, gleefully sharing her observations out loud to both her grandfather and uncle; Vesemir pets his wolf every time he hums around his cock in reply. 
Everything is surprisingly fine. Ciri helps Eskel with the dishes as Vesemir fucks her dad in the counter right next to her, all four of them sharing a laugh as Eskel shares a story about Lambert. And when Vesemir has Jaskier bounce on his lap whilst the bard teaches her music theory, Vesemir sucking Eskel off for a quickie; they have obviously talked to her about this, that Vesemir gets to do what he wants when he wants to, and that he has all the men's consent-- that's all that worries her, that they're not enjoying it, but she's quickly reassured by four pups, telling her just how much they live Vesemir's cock (which, upon further reflection, wasn't the best idea but what the hell, she's literally watching them fuck, telling her that they truly enjoy it up the ass isn't going to scar her if that hadn't.) 
Overall, Jaskier adores being a part of the wolf pack, adores being Geralt's, and adores being Vesemir's.

"Nothing I can Do"
Tumblr media
Warning - Use of the C word said in moment of anger
"So that's it? 6 months for nothing? For you to say you want to break up and no good reason?" Y/N stood next to Kino's bed, the boy holding his head in his hands as the situation in the room grew more tense.
"I'm sorry, Y/N. It's just between my schooling, the radio station and the guys, I never have time and maybe we could be frie-"
"And we discussed that beforehand. We will text every morning and night, and we'll meet up when we can!" Y/N was exasperated, "and you don't think I have a lot on my plate, too? With fucking 6 classes, my job and an internship at the news station?"
Kino bit into his hand, he knew Y/N was right, "I just feel like we should work on oursel-"
"Save it," Y/N grabbed her bag, running out of the door and almost slamming into Wooseok who had opened the entry.
"Kino? What was that?" Wooseok sat next to his older friend, patting his back as tears flowed out of his eyes.
Kino curled up in the tall boy's lap, sobs coming out, "my biggest mistake."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Shinwon and Yan An had to drag Kino out of the radio station's rundown studio they let him use for his music. The trio walked to the cafe, Port Town's Caffeine, opting to sit in a booth.
"You need to eat, Kino, Ms. Hyuna said you locked yourself in there and you've been there since yesterday," Yan An sat next to him as Shinwon ordered the drinks and snacks, "Hui told me he found you asleep at your computer the past 2 weeks, that's not good."
Kino kept quiet as Shinwon handed him his iced coffee and a muffin, picking at the wrapper.
"Is this about that bit-"
"I told you, Shinwon. It was all me. My choice, ny regret, my decision," Kino perked up, his eyes void of all emotion, "she's not anywhere in the wrong for this."
Shinwon sat back, bitter as he noticed Y/N walking in with another boy, "holy fucking shit, that slut."
Yan An and Kino turned around, taking notice at the pair, the boy with his hand on Y/N's hip as he guided her to a chair.
"We're not together, bro. If she wants someone else, that's fine, that's what I wanted her to do."
"We can leave if you'd like," Yan An started picking up the wrappers and empty cups, "we don't have to stay. I know it's still fresh."
Kino shook his head, "guys, I'm fine. I mad-"
"Kino?" The guy with Y/N pulled his mask down, walking over to the group as Y/N kept her eyes down, "what's up, man?"
"Hey Vernon, what's been up with you?" Kino offered a seat next to him as Vernon waved Y/N over, the girl bitterly walking over.
"Oh, I've been good," Kino lied through his teeth as Y/N kept her eyes on the table, fiddling with her fingers while Shinwon glared holes into her head.
"Cool!" Vernon turned to Y/N, "Let me introduce yo-"
"We know who she is," Shinwon barked, crushing his cup, "he used to fuck her in our dorm. How is his sloppy sec-"
"Shinwon!" Kino and Y/N yelled at the tall male, his drink covering the table.
"That's low," Yan An scolded Shinwon, "what he meant to say is they were together. I'm guessing Y/N told you?"
"Yeah. She had mentioned she had a class with a Hyunggyu and they dated for a bit, but I didn't think it was him," Vernon felt the sudden awkward tension, looking between Y/N and Kino, "we can go if you'd like."
"Um, no. It's fine, Kino and you seem like you need to catch up, I'll actually go order food," Y/N stood up before being cut off by Kino.
"Actually, if it's okay with you, Vernon, I'd like to talk to Y/N."
"It's up to her, dude," Vernon helped Yan An clean up the now liquid-free, but still sticky table.
Y/N bit her tongue, nodding, following Kino outside.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"What the fuck did you tell them?! Why did Shinwon try to attack me like that?!"
"Because it's Shinwon, he's impulsive. And I told him that I broke up with you, he took it as I did it because you hurt me, cheated on me, did something to me."
Kino and Y/N stood in the alley next to the cafe, both of their faces red with annoyance, anger, bitterness, regret.
"Have you told him it was you?! Not me! Did you tell him I cried myself to sleep or that Roa had to basically rip me from my bed to go out?" Y/N's words were like knives in Kino's heart, "I'm not saying this to makr you feel guilty! I'm saying this because Shinwon's accusing me of cheating and all this shit, calling me a slut, but it's been hard for both of us and I'm not going to be talked to like that by someone who eats his entire weight in trashy fast food!"
"I've tried telling him! I've told Hui! I've told Yan An, I've told Yuto. I've told my entire group of friends that it was me! It's not my fault that he wants to be an asshole!"
"Well, birds of a feather flock together! I wonder he got the idea of me being a horrible person from! Calling me a slut?! What the hell?!"
"We've been broken up for 2 weeks and you're already on your knees for some fucking other cunt! You're already in bed with Ver-"
"Who said I'm in bed with him?! We're partners in an acting project together and we figured we would take a fucking break before getting back to the scene! At least I'm not the fucking asshole who broke up with someone and couldn't give them a real fucking answer!"
"I broke up with you because I thought you'd be better without me and with someone else! I felt like I wasn't there enough for you to be happy and I didn't want you to feel trapped out of guilt!"
The venom in both of their words raced through their veins, both of them embarrassed by what they just said. The reality hits them both as the tone in the alley went from angry hatred to heartfelt sincerity.
"I've told him it was all my decision, you had nothing to do with it. He's just annoyed at the aftermath."
"Is that Hui texted me saying he found you sleeping in the radio station's record studio at least 4 times last week?" Y/N walked over to Kino, the space between them closing as the two looked at their feet.
Kino's voice wavered in defeat, "maybe."
"Hyunggyu," his real name a gross taste to both parties, "You need to take care of yourself. You need to eat and drink, make sure you're getting some rest."
"Why do you care? You sounded so angry before," Kino looked up to see Y/N holding back tears.
"Because even though it was a shitty breakup, I'm still going to care for you," Y/N grabbed his hands, "we may not be together, but we can still care for each other."
Kino and Y/N looked at each other, both of their cheeks wet with tears that they didn't even notice until now. Kino took his sleeve of his sweater and wiped at Y/N's years. The two sat in comfortable silence, Y/N making the first move to hug.
"Hey, Kino!" Shinwon was at the beginning of the alley, watching the two like a hawk, "we're needed at the radio station."
Kino broke the hug, Y/N with a soft smile on her face as Kino kissed her cheek.
"We can talk more later," Y/N wiped at the last tears falling.
"I'll facetime you when I'm out. Sounds good?"
"Yea," the pair shared one last hug as Vernon and Yan An showed up, Kino and Y/N walking towards them, "take care of yourself."
"You too. Good luck on your project."
"Good luck on your recording."
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Happy Thursday, this is Kino's corner and I'm your host, DJ Kino with my friend, Shinwon," Kino talked into the microphone, a melancholy cloud over his head, looking at the sheet of songs he was suggested to play, "I know it's been a long week, a long day and I don't want to bring anyone down."
Kino stared at Shinwon, the older male nodding in approval as Kino took a breath in.
"I don't want to get too depressing, but I want to talk about break-ups, make-ups and regrets. We all go through them at one point in our lives. Sometimes all at once, two at a time or one right after another. Here's my story about a break-up that I regret and still do, but I've come to terms with it."
Kino started tearing up, the pain in his chest dull as he focused on making sure his voice doesn't crack.
"We were together for a good amount of time, 6 months, you know long enough to fall in love, find each other's quirks and fears, learn about each other. I felt like she could find someone better. I wasn't there for her and if we did see each other, it was only for about 5, 10 minutes top between classes. I broke up with her, giving her the reason we were too busy. I didn't want to tell her that it was because I felt like I wasn't enough, I knew she would feel guilty and I guess I'd rather her hate me than her feel guilty about me not being enough."
Kino watched his phone light up with a notifcation.
"I'll admit, I've been one of those exes who would look at their Instagram, snapchat, line, kakaotalk, Facebook, all that shit. She does look happier and I'm glad for her. Yes, we still talk and see each other out, but I don't think there's any chance of us getting back together."
Kino unlocked his phone, a text from Y/N, her classic snarkiness coming through.
'You know I listen to the radio show, right? :P'
"I know there's certain people listening," Kino chuckled as he queued Shinwon to play a song, "I think there are some people who may need to listen to what I'm about to play. As you know, me, my cohort, Shinwon, as well as our friends Hui and Yan An, have a group, we're called Pentagon, we're recruiting more people, at least... we're trying."
Shinwon laughed as he played the intro, "auditions tomorrow at 2! We have 6 spots open!"
"Thanks, Shinnie. This is a song we just did, I hope you'll like it, it means a lot to me. It's called 'Nothing I Can Do'. I hope you all like it."

What do you want?
Tumblr media
The situation: you're a music producer in South Korea. And the small company you work for has worked with AOMG a few times and that's how you met Gray. At the time you where in a long distance relationship with your boyfriend back in the states, but that didn't last long after you found him cheating.
A few months after your break up you and Gray end up sleeping together, and because of your working relationship you tell him you only have time for a very discrete friend with benefits, which he agrees to. It's been a year since then and your arrangement has been working just fine.
You catch wind of a rumor that Gray is currently dating and actress, so you call him over for a booty call to see if it's true.
Text
Tumblr media
Later that night
You hear a knock on the door, and you go to the door and open it in just your bra and panties. Gray raises his eyebrow and bites his lip.
Gary: looks like someone was missing me.
You smile and grab him by the collar, pulling him into the house. You push him against the door closing it and cornering Gray so you can have your way with him. Things get hot and heavy quick. You push your lips against his and your tongues slip into one another's mouths. Gray breaks away from your heated kiss for a moment to remove his hoody. Then the both of you are back at it. You move your hands to his belt buckle and he grabs your ass and pulls you closer to him.
Gray: let's go to the bedroom.
You stop kissing him to look up at him. The two of you had done it any and everywhere but never in the bed room.
Y/N: OK
You turn around and start towards the bedroom. And Gray comes behind you and grads both your Breast and begins you massage them roughly as he bites down on your neck. You gasp and you can feel your pussy getting wetter.
You two enter your bed room.
Y/N: take your pants off.
You walk over to the bed and sit down on the edge of the bed and cross your legs. Gray laughs.
Gray: this a new kink or some thing?
You get on all fours on the bed and wiggle your ass in Grays directions as you look over your shoulder.
Y/N: maybe.
Gray quickly removes the rest of his clothes. And walks over to you and lays on the bed next to you and trails his fingers up you thigh.
Gray: I'm cold. Come warm me up.
His voice sends shivers up your spine. And you straddle him. Gray sits up to look you in the eyes.
Gray: you look beautiful tonight.
He places your face in his hands and kisses you slowly and sweetly. This isn't how he usually kisses you but you're already horny so you try to pick up the pace. You push him down on the bed. And remove your bra. Gray sits back up and begins licking and sucking on your nipples. Then he rolls you over onto your back and removes you panties.. you try to roll over so he can fuck you doggie style and he pushes you back down.
Y/N: what?
Gray: I want to see your face.
You start to blush, and Gray slowly enters you, and you gasp. Some thing is different tonight. You and Gray are always rough passion when you're together but this time everything is intimate. As he grinds himself into you, you can feel yourself about to cum and you tighten around him. And he pushes deeper into you. You arch your back and now he's hitting your g spot. And even though you try to hold on a little longer he forces you to cum.
Y/N: fuck!
Gray rolls over on his back.
Gray: I missed doing that. We really have to get our schedules synched up so we can do this more often.
Gray turns his head to look at you, but you're already asleep. He laughs to himself. And wraps his arms around you and falls asleep.
Tumblr media
The next morning
You wake up, and feel Grays arms around you and his breath on your neck. You turn around towards him. And he looks so peaceful, that it makes you smile. You've never waken up with him still in your bed let alone in his arms and your heart starts racing.
Y/N: (whisper) it's not fair you get to look so beautiful in the morning.
Gray: I know right
Without opening his eye he responds to you smiling. Gray opens his eyes, but before he can say anything else you sit up and wrap the covers around you.
Gray: what are you doing.?
Y/N: I've got work to do.
You get out of bed taking all the covers with you.
Gray: HEY!
Y/N: that's for not letting me know you were awake.
Gray starts laughing, and stretches out on your bed naked.
Y/N: are you and the rest of AOMG coming to the listening party tonight?
Gray: yea I think so. Why?
Y/N: just asking.. you bringing a date?
Gray: nope, you?
Y/N: maybe.
Gray: oh...
Tumblr media
Gray gets up and gets dressed and leaves with out saying anything else. You shower and get ready for your event later that night.
Listening party
You are putting the finishing touches on things, and greeting the guest when you spot Jay park and the rest of AOMG. You walk over to greet them and notice Gary isn't with them.
Y/N: Gary's not making an appearance?
Jay park: oh I think his going to be a little late.
Y/N: oh OK. Well make yourselves comfortable.
A few hours pass and you spot Gray coming through the door with the actress he is rumoured to be dating, and your heart sinks to your stomach. You get the urge to cry, but then you get angry. This asshole brought her here to get under your skin. You want to walk up to him and act like you're not phased by him and his date, but you know yourself and you'll end up making a scene. So you stay away from him and work the room, but it seems like evey time you turn around gray is right there with his date. You start regretting not having a date.
You decide you need a moment a lone and go up stairs to be alone. You find a quiet room and lay on the sofa.
You hear the door open and with out looking you tell the person the room is occupied. And you heard the door close.
Gray: taking a break?
Your head shoots up, and you see gray leaning on the desk across from you.
Y/N: shouldn't you be with your date.?
Gray: I'm right where I want to be.
Y/ N: you're unbelievable.
You get up and walk towards the door. Gray starts towards you and grads your arm and backs you into the wall.
Y/N: move gray, I'm not playing this game with you today.
Gray: where your date?
Y/N: I don't need a date.
Gray pushes his body against yours and grads your chin then kisses you roughly. He pushes his tough into your mouth. You try pushing him off but the harder you push the rougher he gets, and the wetter you get. You finally manage to break away from his kiss.
Y/N: gray stop! I'm working... And you're hear with someone.
Gray backs away from you a little the drops down on both of his knees.
Gray: I'm only interested in what I'm doing right now.
Gray pushes your dress up and slides you panties off. Then he lifts your right leg over his shoulder and begins licking and sucking on your clit.
You try to protest but you can barely speak. Your mind goes blank, and you cover your mouth with one hand and grad the back of Grays head with the other. You can feel your knees began to buckle and you can no longer contain your moans.
Y/N: gray please stop, please. You're going to make me cum. (Moan) please.
Gray doesn't stop until he knows for sure that you have reached your climax. Then he stands up whiping your juices off of his face.
He drops his pants and lifts you by your thighs and you wrap your arms and legs around him. You're so wet that he slides his long thick shaft right inside you. As he slams his shaft into you over and over again your moans get louder and loud. You can hear his low groans in your ear and after awhile all you can hear is the mixture of both of your voices.
The door suddenly opens. And Gray stops mid stroke and both of you look towards the door. You feel panic rush over your entire body. As you see Jay park, Simon D, and ugly duck standing in the door way.
Jay Park: I fucking knew the two of you were fucking.
Simon D: wow just wow.
Ugly Duck: y'all some fucking freaks. There's like a hundred people down stairs and y'all didn't even lock the door.
Gray: GET THE FUCK OUT!!! AND LOCK THE DOOR, WE'RE BUSY!!!
They all start laughing and close the door, then Jay opens the door again to lock it and closes it back.
Y/N: that was the most embarrassing thing to ever happen to me.
You try to get down and Gray tightens his grip.
Gray: where are you going?.... I'm not done yet.
He walks over to the desk with you in his arms and sits you down. He bites down on your neck and begins grinding his hips into yours and you match his pace.
Y/N: (moan) I'm going to cum.
Gray picks up the pace. He uses one hand to grad the back of you head and the other to push your hip into him even harder. You close your eye as your about to climax. And you feel Grays forehead on yours.
Gray: keep your eyes on me.
You open your eyes and the both of you cum at the same time. While both of you are trying to catch your breath, Gray takes your face in his hands and kisses you on your forehead. Then he looks you in the eyes.
Gray: you belong to me now.

Note
A/B/O world where Bs are a neglected minority (A45/B10/O45), even if they're some of the most important members of society. Because Bs are immune to pheromones. Stiles is a B undercover spy. On a mission, Stiles poses as A/O (with fake pheromones, gotta love the R&D) and gets chosen by A/O Peter, who has issues with normal dynamic stereotypes (O's are airheads, A's are controlfreak douches) and Stiles doesn't set his hackles up like all the others. And Stiles just wants to complete his mission.
Worse than worse.
Peter is so, so tired right now. He has been for a while, actually. Of society, his family, his circumstances. So. Very. Tired.
The last thing he wanted was to have to attend a ball that will leave him with the same sour taste in his mouth as always in the end. Arrogant alphas, simpering omegas, all of them slaves to their own hormones and pheromones and no better than animals. No amount of alcohol can wash the foul taste that's already building in his mouth, barely one hour in.
Sadly, he had no say in the matter and here he is.
Then he spots him. He doesn't know what makes him pay attention, but he's glad anyways. The man is gorgeous, but that's not what catches his attention. What makes Peter giddy is the way he manipulates the alpha in front of him into snapping so badly that security sweeps in. Then the man feigns being horrified when Peter is sure he's ecstatic. It's beautiful and, since Peter has never been one to abstain from what he wants, he tells him so.
"So beautiful," Peter drawls and then he has to contain a delighted laugh when the man turns, a spark in his eyes that says that he's ready to destroy Peter.
Suddenly, Peter is not tired at all.
---
He called it.
Stiles fucking called it.
Did he say that loud enough for the ones in the back?
No?
HE CALLED IT.
There.
When he eventually gets out, he's going to repeat that until he loses his voice. And then he'll write it down, make copies of it and shove it in their faces. He'll let them keep their copy. Hell, he'll even frame it for them. The remaining copies will be stuck around the office, toilets included.
Because he called it, fuck dammit.
He said the mission was going to be the worst thing ever, and, just as he expected, this mission has turned out to be the worst thing ever. What's worse than the worst thing ever? Is that a thing? It has to be. Because once Stiles had to spend an entire week in the sewers and that was supposed to be the perfect example of the worst thing ever. And yet this is worse. So there must be a term whose definition is "worse than the worst thing ever".
And the mission isn't even over yet.
From bad intel to really bad luck, everything that could go wrong has gone epically wrong. (There's a horse hoof-shaped burn on Stiles' butt that's stinging like crazy, that's how bad the whole thing has gone! A hoof-shaped second degree burn! Stiles will have a hoof tattoo-like mark on his butt for who knows how long, fuck dammit!) Stiles is going to kill the intel and development people, he doesn't care if Danny or Lydia get pissed off for Stiles destroying their respective departments. This shit calls for retribution! The equipment failed, the intel was wrong, they deserve anything Stiles dishes out. Everything went wrong because of them!
Ok, fine, not exactly all. He's already gotten what he needed from his target's computer... even after said computer's OS crashed and nearly caught on fire. Physically. As in flames coming out of... Ok, whatever. Let bygones be bygones and all that shit. Stiles, hoof-shaped second degree burn on his ass cheek or not, needs to chill. He has the data and that's all that matters.
Now, he just has to figure how to send said data to base and then beat it. That would be wonderful. But, of fucking course, because this mission is the worst of the worst things ever, something is jamming the signal, which has made him lose contact with his handler and he hasn't been able to transfer it to headquarters. Sadly, that means that he has had to transfer the data to a memory stick (after having to patch the damn thing that was just seconds ago on fire with what he had in his pockets) and now he has to physically carry it outside the building. Which is no good but he'll have to make do.
He's taking a vacation after this.
(After making intel and development pay, that is.)
---
Just... fuck his life, ok?
His partner was able to slip out unnoticed but as he was trying to do the same, security showed up out of nowhere and he had to retreat towards a toilet or risk being caught otherwise. And sadly, an atypical and abrupt increase in security can only mean one thing: the breach has already been found out and they're trying to locate the source.
Maybe Stiles hasn't mentioned this before, but he really, really hates this mission.
(He has.)
(Like at least twenty times over the comms before he found himself alone.)
(After that he's been chanting it in his head.)
It's already been twenty minutes since that happened and he hasn't been able to leave yet, which just adds up to the shit-ton of things that have gone wrong in this operation so far. Right now, his only consolation for all his troubles is that Deaucalion and every single member of his merry band of human waste are going to be drawn out handcuffed in broad daylight when the bosses finally get their hands on the intel Stiles is carrying right now.
But first he has to leave this fucking place, dammit.
Which, again, brings him to his current situation, in which he's stuck in a ballroom, trying to make an alpha completely lose his shit out of sheer irritation and enjoying every second of it despite the dire circumstances. Now, Stiles would normally try to curve his vindictiveness when he's posing as an omega, but in his defense this alpha was asking for it. Begging. On his metaphorical knees even.
If there's a word Stiles despises, it's defective, with unnatural or it's various synonyms right after it on the podium. Especially so if they're being used to describe another human being. They get his hackles up and his level of viciousness goes first through the roof and then the stratosphere. Easily.
When he was a teen he would even get violent, but time (and the anger management therapy the State of California, his crying omega mom and disappointed™ alpha dad forced on him) toned down his knee-jerk reaction to those words. Don't get him wrong, his view on the whole thing is still pretty much the same, he has just learned to dish out his response in a much more undetectable and productive way.
Because, by definition of the majority of the population nowadays, Stiles himself is defective and unnatural. Doctors have tests to know it before babies like Stiles are born so that the parents can knowingly decide if they still want to have a Beta child or not. In some parts of the world people like Stiles are sacrificed, in others they have to be terminated before they're even born or face being persecuted and killed along with the parents that dared to defy the law and had them. Never mind that if an Alpha, an Omega and a Beta are examined side by side, physically speaking they are almost identical. The only thing that's different is that Betas can't produce any of the two kinds of pheromones or smell them when they're being emitted. That's it. The rest of their bodies work just fine. They have to eat, drink and sleep to survive just like everyone else. If they are female, they are perfectly able to get pregnant; if they are male, they can impregnate a woman. Just like every Alpha or Omega on the planet.
But again, since Betas lack of the equipment to process pheromones, don't go into a heat or a rut, and lack those instincts associated with them, they are defective. Hell, the very term "beta" is a slur that comes from the programming slang (first version of a program that has the necessary basics for it to run but it's incomplete). Betas may have made it their own, but that doesn't change its origins. That's the kind of world Stiles lives in.
And this asshole Alpha, who apparently also finds Omegas utterly vapid and vexing, has packed more Beta slurs in the twenty minutes Stiles has been there blending in than what he can stomach without popping a vessel if he doesn't answer somehow.
Admittedly, Stiles was running on a short fuse to begin with, but he knows he would have done this anyways because it may provide the necessary distraction to slip out unnoticed.
And no one beats Stiles at being an asshole, so by now he has lost count of the number of times he's had to bite his cheek and mask his glee covering his face coyly with his flute of champagne to avoid giving himself away. Asshole Alpha looks about ready to give in to the temptation of strangling him and it shouldn't be this amusing, but it is. Immensely so, in fact. Especially since Stiles is keeping up the hare-brained and innocent act flawlessly and drawing every single omega in the vicinity into the conversation, thus managing to crowd Asshole Alpha quite effectively.
A small pleasure in a completely shitty situation, that's exactly what this is. Now, if he could just leave somehow... But no, impossible. Security is still at every door and Stiles has no way of getting out without being caught with the memory stick and photographic evidence he has on himself.
Asshole Alpha finally snaps and lets out a threatening growl. Stiles forces himself to back off frightened instead of snickering delightedly, copying the reaction of every Omega around himself down to the distressed whimpers at the (he guesses by the reaction) onslaught of angry pheromones. Two guards swoop in almost immediately and make the man accompany them. He resists the temptation of waving cheekily at him as they drag him out and joins the horrified and appalled whispering left behind instead.
"So beautiful," someone drawls at his back and Stiles bites back an irritated groan before turning around to look at most possibly Asshole Alpha, take two.
His breath catches slightly when he takes in the new Alpha's appearance. Ok, wow. Asshole or not, that's one fine specimen of a man. Like, top model worthy wow. Stiles never thought he'd see anyone other than Tony Stark (who cares if it's a fictional character?) who would do justice to a goatee, but holy shit.
What. He may hate people and the dynamics they're run by, but that doesn't keep him from appreciating eye candy, ok? That's a completely different matter, after all. Also, eye candy or not, Stiles will destroy him anyways if he's a douche. It will even be sweeter, because good looking alphas are the epitome of privilege and the thought of being played by an Omega doesn't even enter the realm of possibilities for them.
"Hi," he chirps sweetly, looking at him through his eyelashes and tilting his head just so. Alpha's smile widens and Stiles fights a smug smirk. He's going to destroy him.
"Hello," Alpha purrs. "My name's Peter."
