❄️ and ⛅️ please! (And hello! C:)
Hi Mo, thank you!!
Ok, the second was difficult, I'll admit... Particularly because I'm overtly critical of my work and if you ask me what's my favourite piece I've drawn/written, I'll always answer "the next one".
Buuuut... Let's try it.
First is from next chapter, it's the one light moment of it and I am still considering whether to keep it. I quite like the dialogue in this too, I think.
Second, under the cut, is from Chapter 28 in Monster Fic, if you want to avoid the spoiler... But yeah I got a thing for Aisling and Radha quarrelling, they just hit each other the best.
❄️Share a snippet from a WIP of your choosing.
The same Dorian who is now skimpering back in the light of the camp, shoulders at ear level and a high-pitched whine in his throat, making a bee-line for Aisling with the air of a person who just stepped in something extremely unpleasant.
She’s sitting cross legged in front of the fire, consulting maps and tracing courses with Radha and Cassandra, and doesn’t need to be told anything by the Altus to shift around and spread her legs, outstretching her arms as if it was the most normal things in the world. By the way no one reacts to the scene, it could as well be. Dorian sits down heavily amidst them, with confidence surely dued to a friendship Cullen never really notice just how close-knitted was until now. Oh, he was told, but seeing them was different.
“What am I looking for?”
“I put my face in a spiderweb and I’m sure the fucking spider is still there. Please take it away, please.”
He sounds extremely distressed, his voice is higher, and the elf doesn’t wait to get to work, giggling as behind her Radha huffs and Cassandra lets out a disgusted noise just for show.
“I’m sure there’s nothing!” Aisling coos, fingers threading in his hair nevertheless, eyes kin on his head as she separates locks from locks.
“There is, I can feel it crawling!” He insists, shivering.
“And women are the weaker sex.” Cassandra snorts, but there’s amusement in her face, lips quirking upward as she observes the two, everyone taking it as a pause from the activities.
“I am sorry I wasn’t cut from stone as you and I mind having something with too many legs and too many eyes taking a walk on my head!” Dorian quips, piqued.
“Give Sparklers a break, Seeker, he had to peel his own grapes today, he needs to relax from so much exhertion!” Varric adds in, a laughter in his tone, and met suddenly with another disgusted noise.
“You should keep the spider, it’ll weave its web in your hair and you will stop complaining about mosquitoes.” Radha adds, moving a compass on the map and noting some numbers on a piece of paper, lips quirked up in a smile.
Aisling turns to pout at her, reproach in her eyes as her fingers keep working. It’s quick, just the time for her sister to notice and raise one eyebrow at her and the mage is back to the task.
“You all are not helping!” She complains, but there’s no real bitterness in her tone.
“Come on Lucky, we are! He’s not crying, look at him!”
“Of course he’s not, because there is no-” And with that she stops, eyes growing big and fingers stopping.
The whole of the party stops to look at her, expecting, making Dorian noticing and starting to pale considerably.
“What? What??” He asks, frantic, patting the outside of Aisling’s thigh with a purpose to make her talk.
“It’s… Ah, it’s nothing! I got distracted noticing just how much hair do you have and how thick it is…” Aisling quips back, grimacing as she picks something from the back of Dorian’s head with her right hand and retreats the hand keeping it as far from her body as she can. Her left keep on ruffling his hair in circular motions. “… and I hate you for that, you’re truly despicable. And there’s no spider here.”
She grew better at lying, even if her voice is cracking a little… As she looms with concern at the big fat hairy spider she is holding from a thick leg between her index and thumb. The creature is still alive, weaving all the legs around with a vengeance, and from the colour it’s easy to guess it’s not just any spider: it’s bright red and black, very visible and shiny in the firelight. She shakes her hand and glares at Radha without saying anything: but everything is apparently enough for the elf to understand, since she raises up the piece of paper she was writing onto so that the spider can be let fall on it. Briskly and minding to keep the paper well away from her body and the spider still on it, the rogue raises up and walks away from the camp, as silent as a mouse with her bare feet. Cassandra grimaces at the show, understanding it was something venomous, and Varric can’t contain chortling under his breath. Which instantly trips Dorian off even if Aisling returned to ruffle his hair, now mindlessly, with both hands.
🌤️Share your favorite piece of dialogue from your WIP.
“What do you want? How much will you ask until you believe we love and care for you, that you’ve been one of ours from the start, it never mattered that you weren’t born with us, and that we won’t abandon you, that we’re your family? How much more, Aisling?”
This is a low hit, and the lowest she could go. Aisling tho, refuses to cry.
“Do you think it’s easy for me?”
“I think it’s not as difficult as it should be, if at the first impediment you just run away.”
“I’m not running away. You don’t understand. You can’t understand.”
“What now? I can go back but you don’t? It sounds like nothing we did has ever mattered!”
“I can’t go back!” Aisling yells, stomping her foot and unwillingly willing the flames to burn hotter and more.
Radha steps back, hissing through her nose and avoiding the fire lapping forward. A moment, and she goes back to face her, unbothered by the outburst and just glaring at her.
“I don’t know who convinced you of this, but-”
“You know it too. I will never be able to go back, I will…” She snorts, tossing her arms to the side. “The Inquisition will never let me go. I won’t ever be able to leave because I have this-” She shows the Anchor, pouring a little bit of magic into it, just enough to have it glow green. “- and so I am needed here.”
“You could resign. Step back. You hate politics.”
“Yes, and then what?” She laughs, mirthlessly. “There’ll arrive another crazy overlord searching for this mark, and the clan won’t be able to stand the tide. I’m stepping back from them because it’s the only sensible thing I can do. Do you really think what happened in Wycome won’t happen again? Or that the next time it will all go smoothly as this one? Do you?”

karlach has to stop jokingly saying she wants something because wyll "hopeless romantic" "eager to please" ravengard always takes it way too seriously. they enter the mason's guild and she's like "maybe we'll find a nice big hammer for karlach" and wyll painstakingly collects every single hammer they find in there and presents it to her when they're resting catalogued by size and sturdiness and hand tested "although of course my technique can't hold a candle to yours, my love" and when she tries to tell him that was mostly a joke and those hammers aren't as good for fighting as the actual warhammer she already has he looks so dejected and disappointed she simply has to fight with some rusty lumphammer for a week. she's like "I'd like to dance a waltz" and at the end of the day wyll has somehow spontaneously learned how to summon an orchestra and decorated the whole camp. how did he do that? he was out fighting cultists the whole day! she has no clue but he did and by the gods is he going to waltz her until he physically cannot anymore. she almost regrets saying she wanted a hug so many times because now whenever they have free time he's all over her like a koala (she loves it). etc etc. it only gets worse in avernus too. "wyll i know i said i wished there was a banquet but we're in literal hell you didn't have to procure a chef" "id do it a thousand times over to see you smile". etc. all of this is canon btw the devs told me so in a dream

i think aphrodite kid reader x clarisse is simply just better??? like the trope is just superior??? like, we have clarisse who is tough, and mean and one of the strongest people at camp, then we have reader who is kind and compassionate and really doesn’t care all that much about fighting. so naturally, clarisse is super protective and treats reader like a princess?? how could people dislike it 😔😔
no exactly and i actually must write about this - basically this is just all about the little things clarisse does for her perfect princess angel daughter of aphrodite gf (me!!!!!!)
okay as payment for my absence please accept some shitty headcanons I LOVE YOU ALL BYEEEE
she’s just always DOING THINGS FOR YOU
she’s so perceptive and she always knows exactly what you want and need even if you don’t know it yourself
like if you like wearing high heels one) clarisse genuinely wonders what is wrong w you
she sees no practicality in them bc there isn’t lol
but also she’s like omg???? MY GF feels safe enough around me to wear shoes she can’t run in???? WHAT JOY!!!!!!!!!
and you’ll come back to your cabin being all ugh omg my feet hurt so bad laying on the bed and putting your feet UP
and clarisse is like “well i could have told you that”
excuse me????
“don’t get me wrong baby you look gorgeous and i love you wearing heels but it’s your funeral”
“DIE”
she just laughs and takes your shoes off
she’ll continue to bully you as she’s literally massaging your feet like ok girl yeah we see you
clarisse is also a MENACE about making sure you eat
“did you eat today?”
“babe you SAW me at lunch”
“just making sure….”
you’re just so kind and amazing and clarisse loves you so much but you are not the best at fighting!
she is constantly stressed when you’re not by her side
bc no one loves you like her who will protect you 💔💔💔💔
when someone takes advantage of you she gets so PISSED OFF
bc it’s not like someone is beating you up it’ll be like someone is using you as their personal therapist or smth and you’re just like “pls go speak to an actual professional wtf 😭😭😭”
and she’s so pissed off bc WHY IS THIS BITCH PSYCHOLOGICALLY AND EMOTIONALLY TORTURING HER GIRL??????
she’s not afraid to beat people up for you and actually enjoys it!
anyways, clarisse is also a koala bear
and an emotionally stunted caveman
she’s not good with her words so these actions are all she has to show you that she loves you
idk if y’all have noticed but clar rarely saying ily to y/n bc it’s my personal headcanon that she has such a hard time saying those words. she shows you she loves you but for some reason it’s just so hard to get the words out. (…BC SHE IS AN EMOTIONALLY STUNTED CAVEMAN)
so she quickly adapts to do all these little things
if you’re walking down a flight of stairs trust she is holding your hand
QUEEN of opening jars for you
if you’re not feeling well or you’re tired or just feeling lazy she’ll bully someone into doing your chores for you
also this bitch is NOT afraid to stand up for you and make sure you get what you deserve.
like that one meme
“UM… she said NO PICKLES… you fucking dumbasses…”
“CLARISSE 😭😭😭”
also like in “better than revenge” she loves to watch you do your makeup
finds it so fascinating that you can only get PRETTIER
like she’s okay at makeup but you can do that shit perfectly like standing on your head
you make it seem so effortless
she’s not a HUGE makeup girly but sometimes she’ll let you just go crazy
so you can sit on top of her….. that one sapphic meme yes…..
also she’s constantly bragging about you
“yeah… i have the prettiest gf in camp… y’all are just losers what can i say”
ofc if anyone were to agree w her she would go insane
“yeah y/n is so pretty”
“um ok yeah you don’t have to say it i say it enough….”
even if one of your siblings gives you a compliment she’s like HOLD THE FUCK ON- then she remembers THATS YOUR SIBLING ITS OK and she’s like oh this is so embarrassing.
will she stop? no ofc not
she’s constantly telling you how pretty you are. beautiful. gorgeous. exquisite. all the words
loves kissing you all over
KISSES YOUR HAND 🤭🤭
anyways going back to the clarisse koala bear agenda that got away from me
she’s just always touching you
hand on the small of your hand guiding you somewhere
hand around your waist
SITTING IN HER LAP AT CAMPFIRES
no matter what type of hair you have she’s obsessed w it. if you have pin straight hair she’s so obsessed w the fact that you don’t need a huge curl routine like her, finds it fascinating
if you do have curls she loves doing a curl routine together
whatever whatever type of hair you have she’s obsessed with it and will wash it for you if you want
so soft and lovingly like a more of a scalp massage than a hair washing
will brush your hair for you, braid it for you, anything you like just OBSESSED
she loves when you like sit on top of a picnic table and then she gets to sit in between your legs on the bench thinks it’s so so fun and so so silly
she LOVESSSSS sleeping w you OBVI.
on top of you, you on top of her, she’s a koala bear. like entirely wrapped around you
partially bc she is as aforementioned a koala bear and partly bc she is overprotective even in her sleep
if you move in the middle of the night even just a little bit
she’s a super light sleeper i feel like
always on the guard fr ✊
a little bit better when you’re there tho
so if you move in the middle of the night she’ll just like caress your hair and kiss your cheek and try to shush you back to sleep
like bitch you’re still asleep have you never heard of ADJUSTING? MOVING? SHIFTING?
hope you’re not one of those people who has to go to the bathroom in the middle of the night bc with clarisse that will stop
you can’t abandon her even for 2 minutes even for basic bodily functions like you just can’t it’s so inconsiderate to her… 💔

I love the idea that Ace isn’t even like overbearing or upset about Zolu having sex he’s just surprised. Like, by the time he learns they’re an item they’ve very much already been an item for A While Now, and Ace isn’t blind, it’s very obvious that Zoro is truly in love with Luffy (and that Luffy is. Clearly the one calling the shots and setting the pace here.) so he’s not like, worried about Zoro taking advantage of his brother or anything, it’s just…
He didn’t think Luffy… was interested? In that kind of thing?? At all??? Like sure he’s growing up, he’s a man now, but it is still so very weird for Ace to think of his brother as a man now, y’know?
The brothers meet up for an adventure and Zolu sneak away from camp and Ace stumbles across them going at it, and Zoro is kneeling there praying to any god that’s listening that he is not about to be burned to death with his dick out and Ace is just like “Oh. Uh. Are you… being… safe? Does your doctor know you’re sexually active? Actually sit down Luffy we’re going over the talk again cause I know you weren’t paying attention lasts time—“
(Zoro takes it back, he would like to be burned to death. With or without his dick out he’s not picky please just put him out of his misery)
Sabo, though… Sabo absolutely still sees Luffy as a sweet, endlessly innocent little sunshine baby who needs to protected at all costs. Sabo finds out his baby brother is having sex and he needs to be physically restrained by Koala and Hack to keep him from murdering Roronoa Zoro in cold blood.

The other Bronze – Part 9
For my manager @valewosomtb who has to deal with my mushy brain all day, for my @samkerrworshipper who is an absolute legend and for all my patiently waiting anons and followers❤️❤️
Lucy was woken up by an unnatural sound. She couldn’t really place it. So her first instinct was to hit her phone to snooze the alarm. Surprisingly the sound stopped and Luce rolled back over pulling you tighter into her arms as she started to drift off to sleep again. The sound started again. In her half – okay quarter awake brain she registered that it sounded like knocking. Aggressive knocking.
“What the hell??” your sister mumbled as she got more and more aware of her surroundings her brain finally catching on
It was still dark outside but yep – that was definitely knocking. On a door. On her door. Someone was knocking on her front door. Lucy groaned quietly but untangled herself from your grip carefully pushing you over so you would grab onto Ona instead.
When the couple entered their home yesterday you refused to let one of them go. You koala hugged your sister as she – once again – carried you into her apartment as you held on to Onas shirt tightly. Lucy made a straight beeline to lay you down in Onas and her bedroom before leaving you to rest so she could eat something. She should have known better. The second you reconized you were alone again you jolted up with panic calling out for your sister. Who immediately came back running of course knowing how much of a toll it took on you with what happened at Camp Nuo in the afternoon. So she sat down in bed with you holding you tightly as Ona quietly brought some dinner. You saw how the blonde tried to leave again but told her to stay. This definitely wasn't how Lucy imagined her evening to go. In bed by 6PM with you fighting off another nightmare as you clutched to Onas shirt your face on your sisters chest. Ona and her talked quietly for some time before deciding to get ready for bed as well. It was an absolute mission to go threw their nightly routine with you stirring every time one of them was out of your reach. But they managed – somehow.
You know cuddled into Ona who was also still fast asleep as Lucy carefully exit the bedroom to walk quietly down the hallway
“Que??” she grumbled as she opened the door to find a completely demolished Mapí outside her front door “Mapí?? What the hell are you doing here at...” Lucy glanced quickly at the clock “..6.15 in the morning?”
“I came to apologize to the Nena... I really didn't mean to upset her yesterday... I brought chocolate... I didn't know which one she'd like so I bought them all” the tattooed spaniard rambled a slight panic in her voice as she opened the plastic bag she was holding in her hands showing Lucy
“Oh Maps” Lucy sighed softly actually touched by the spaniards antics “It's okay Maps.. she's okay... you didn't have too”
“Yes I had too... I hurt her...” Mapí answered and Lucy saw tears in the spaniards eyes
“Come on in... I'll make you a coffee” your sister opened the door wider and stepped aside for the woman to enter not having the heart to yell at her for basically knocking her door down “in the middle of the night”
“Is the Nena awake?” Mapí asked hopefully and your sister snorted as she put a cup of coffee in front of the blonde woman
“No... it'd be a surprise if she moves her ass out of bed before 9... always slept like a corpse”
“Is chocolate okay... Ingrid said yesterday chocolate helps against all sorts hurtings” the spaniard said empting her shopping bag on the counter “I brought the english one.. Catsbury or something”
“Dear Jesus Mapí... this is like... a whole shop of chocolate” Lucy exclaimed as she looked at the amount Mapí brought along “Where did you get this? I never saw Cadbury anywhere”
“Airport... I had to buy a plane ticket to get to the duty free shops but I knew they had it there” the blonde spaniard answered
“You did what?” Lucy asked confused
“I had to buy a ticket... they wouldn't let me go through security without a plane ticket... Ingrid won't be happy” the spaniard mumbled
“Maps... are you actually mad?” your sister exclaimed
“I... I need to get her something... I know it's not enough but maybe it's a start so she can start to forgive me” Mapí started to fidget with her rings
“Mapí... there's nothing to forgive... don't get me wrong, she'll be over the moon about the chocolate but you did nothing wrong... you didn't kick that ball at her on purpose.. if Kei hasn't called out to her the ball would have hit her in the head and that would've been it... and you couldn't have known not to touch her afterwards.. you just wanted to help” Lucy spoke softly now being really touched by the younger spaniard actions and how she was adamant to fix it
“I... I.. I just need to see that she's really okay” Mapí mumbled
“I can understand that... she has the tendency to worm her way into peoples heart quite quickly... but Maps... you really didn't do anything wrong” your sister said insistently
“Babe? Who are you talk...” Ona suddenly appeared in the doorway of the kitchen looking still asleep “Mapí?” she looked at her fellow team mate confused
“Hola” the blonde waved
Ona just continued to look confused her eyes moving from Mapí to Lucy back to Mapí then to the chocolate
“It's too early... I'm not going to ask and I don't want to know” Ona waved off taking Lucys coffee mug out of her girlfriends hand
“Mapí came to apologize to y/n... she brought presents” your sister gestured to the amount of chocolate.
“Speaking off... she kicked me...” Ona mumbled as she breathed in the smell of the coffee
“Yeah... she does that... the amount of bruises she caused me is unreal” Lucy rolled her eyes as she got herself a new coffee mug out of the cabinet
“Where did you get all that chocolate Maps... shops are closed” Ona now asked looking through the bars
“Don't touch them you thieve!!” the tattooed woman exclaimed as she collected all the chocolate in front of her “I know you... you act like you're just looking and bam... all gone – I went all the way to the airport to buy them so you keep your dirty hands of nenas chocolate”
“Airport?” your sisters girlfriend asked getting more confused by the second
“Yeah... she even bought a plane ticket to get through security” Lucy explained
“Oh Mapí” Ona said softly walking around the counter to hug her friend “You are honestly one of a kind”
“Yeah well... I hurted her” the blonde looked down ashamed
“You didn't Maps...” your sister said again knowing the woman will need to hear it a few more times
“Wait... does Ingrid know?” Ona now asked alarmed
“What exactly should Ingrid know?” Mapí started to fidget again
“María Pilar León Cebrían” Ona scolded her friend “Do not tell me you just ran away from home and brought a plane ticket.. Ingrid will freak out!!!”
“Why would she... she doesn't need to know” the tattooed shrugged her shoulders
“You share a bank account!!! She'll wake up to you gone and a notification for a plane ticket to god knows where” the blonde got frustrated
“Seville... first flight out was to Seville” Mapí provided
“Call her... RIGHT NOW!” Ona shoved her phone into Mapís hands
“Why so aggressive?” the tattooed spaniard bewildered
“YOUR EX IS FROM SEVILLA!!!!!” Ona lost it already imagining Ingrid in tears in their home
“And?” Mapí didn't get it while Lucy bursted out laughing at the sheer chaos this woman contains in such a small body
“I want to hit you so bad right now... what would you think if you wake up to a cold bed and a notification that Ingrid booked a ticket to Oslo? Where her ex lives???” your sisters girlfriend pressed
“Hm...” the two women saw how the wheels in Mapís head started turning “... I would think that she flew there to see her... SHIT”
“NOW she has it” Lucy laughed as Mapí frantically tried to open Onas phone
“Open it” the tattooed spaniard said panicky and pushed the phone back in Onas hand
The young woman quickly typed in her code and handed it back to Mapí. The woman punched in Ingrids number waiting for her girlfriend to pick up
“Ona?” a very sleepy Ingrid answered the phone after the fourth ring
“No amor... it's me” Mapí said quietly turning away from Lucy and Ona
“Maps... are you okay... what happened? Why are you calling from Onas phone?” the norwegian was awake in seconds
“No no... everything is fine... nothing happened... I just couldn't sleep” the blonde talked lowly “... I went to get some chocolate for the Nena... but I'm with them now... I just wanted to let you know that I didn't fly to Seville”
“Seville??” now Ingrid got confused “Why would you fly to Seville?”
“I needed a ticket to get through security” the blonde answered shyly
“María” the norwegian said and her voice was one big warning
“I needed to get to the duty free section... I swear I didn't fly to Seville and I didn't see... her” Mapí started to ramble again
“Home... now” Ingrid growled “We need to talk”
“I... need to wait on the Nena to wake up... I want to apologize” the blonde said slowly
“Okay... then you better make sure Lucy still has coffee when I arrive” and with that the norwegian ended the call
“She's coming here” was all that Mapí said “She wants coffee”
Lucy just sighed – it wasn't even 7AM and her kitchen already transformed into a Starbucks. Suddenly a small whimper was heard from the Bedroom. Immediately Lucy pushed herself of the counter she was leaning against walking quickly down the hallway. Mapí tried to follow immediately getting guilty again just to be stopped by Ona with a reassuring smile
“It's okay Maps... Lucy got it covered” the younger one had her hand on Mapís arm squeezing lightly
“Hey Bubs” Lucy whispered kneeling next to bed carefully stroking some sweaty hair away from your forehead “It's okay... you're save”
“Luce” you whimpered and it broke your sisters heart a little more
“Ssh... it's okay...I'm here...” your sister said keeping her voice down “Calm down... go back to sleep”
“Stay” you whined out as you grabbed her arm tightly
“Scoot over wee one...” was the only thing Lucy said before sliding into bed next to you
20 minutes later you were fast asleep again and your sister carefully left the bed again. With one last glance she quietly closed the door behind her walking back into the kitchen where she found a rather fierce talking norwegian
“Morning Ings” Lucy greeted as she headed straight to the coffee machine
“Bon dia Luce” the norwegian stopped her rant for a second to smile at the englishwoman before returning to scold her girlfriend
“For how long is this going on?” Lucy asked her girlfriend as she leant next to the smiling blonde
“The second she stepped through the door” Ona grinned “Mapí really outdid herself this time”
“I know who will sleep on the couch for at least a month” Lucy laughed quietly
“I swear to god María.. I'm going to buy you a harness too” Ingrid now threatened and Mapí got white as a wall
“No... I don't need” she started but got interrupted by the black haired Scandinavian
“Oh but I think you do” Ingrid said and by the tone she used Mapí knew the topic was over
“Oh man” the blonde spaniard huffed out
Lucy just chuckled using her mug to cover up half her face while Ona wasn't as sneaky and just bursted out laughing. After a minute the atmosphere changed to a comfortable silence.
“Breakfast?” Ona offered smiling actually liking having the other couple over
“I'll help you” Ingrid immediately offered before glancing at her girlfriend “Set the table”
“Sí amor” Mapí mumbled shuffling towards the cabinets like a kicked puppy
“She meant well Ingrid” Lucy mumbled under her breath as she started cutting tomatoes and peppers
“Oh I know... but that doesn't mean I can't use it to my advantage for a few days” the norwegian winked smiling
Lucy just laughed before she heard you whining again
“Duty calls... should I put her back to sleep or bring her out for breakfast?” your sister looked at Ona
“You know her better – even if I would like her to eat something since she hasn't had dinner but you decide” the blonde shrugged
“I see what I can do” Lucy grinned leaning down pressing a soft kiss to her girlfriends lips before leaving towards the bedroom once again
“Hey Bubs...” Lucy said softly as she found you sitting in bed looking frantically around
“You were gone” you panted out
“Was just in the kitchen... breakfast is nearly done... Ingrid and Mapí are here too...” your sister spoke softly as she sat down on the bed next to you but not touching you
“Wanna come with me and join us?” Lucy asked lowly as she now carefully stroke over your cheek
“Need to shower first – feel disgusting” you mumbled closing your eyes enjoying the soft touch of your sisters cool hand
“Okay... I'll wait here okay? Kei texted already too.... you want to call her later?” Lucy asked softly
“Yes please” you sounded so small
“Off to the shower you hop” your sister smiled encouraging “I even let you use my one – door over there”
“Ah yes... the private bathroom” you mumbled before pushing yourself out of bed winching slightly because your wrist was still hurting
“I get you some painkillers” Lucy immediately noticed your discomfort
“They're in there right?” you asked pointing to the bathroom
“Actually no... I put them in the kitchen if you needed some in the night again” your sister grinned
“Ugh... why do you always have to move stuff?? Painkillers... trophies... yourself” you huffed out annoyed
Lucy just laughed immediately knowing what you were referring to. She once moved her FIFA trophy from a shelf to the sideboard for an interview for you to run into said sideboard nearly knocking the trophy of it. You were mortified and refused to pass the sideboard without Keira or herself.
“Go shower... I'll be back with your painkillers when you come out” your sister pressed a soft kiss to your head as you tumbled into the bathroom
“No breakfast?” Ona asked a little disappointed
“She's in the shower... 15 minutes” Lucy smiled slightly getting the pill
“Okay... I'll make her an omelette” the blonde smiled happily
“No need babe... she won't eat it anyway...” Lucy waved off “... she only eats small things after an... let's call it an episode”
“Oh... okay... fruit?” Ona asked immediately catching on – but so does Mapí
“I'm really sorry” the tattooed woman mumbled
“Not your fault Maps... she's okay... she just needs a little time to get back to her annoying self again” Lucy smiled at the blonde who now received a loving squeeze from her girlfriend too “The fact that she still wants breakfast after I told her we have company is a good thing... she's not mad at you Maps... never was and never will be”
“Okay” the spaniard mumbled still not really convinced
“I'll be back with her in about 10 minutes... just act normal... like nothing happens – that's normally the best way for her to cope with it” your sister said as she left again
“Bubs?” Lucy asked into the still dark room
“Are you fucking kidding me???” you came out of the bathroom holding up a strap on harness with Lucys toothbrush
“Oh.... sorry?” your sister looked embarrassed but couldn't hold back the smile tugging on her lips
“You're.... sorry???” you asked outraged “That's a fucking strap on!!! I did NOT need the visual thank you very much”
“Firstly it's just the harness and secondly you walked in on me having sex like... 20 times” your sister rolled her eyes but still smiling widely
“Ew!!” you heaved “I swear you will be sorry when I use your toothbrush to clean the toilets at Camp Nope”
“Come on now” Lucy laughed out loud now “Don't be such a baby about it”
“You let me die a VIRGIN and you use... this” you pulled a disgusted face shaking the leather garment a little
“It makes my ass look good” your sister just couldn't stop teasing you about your find
“Okay..... NO.. nope...not doing this with you... you... you... you... just EW” you shrieked before flicking the leather harness at her
Your sister caught the harness with ease still laughing as you pushed passed her into the hallway mumbling about how you again got scarred for life
“Bon dia Bebita” Ona smiled softly as you entered the kitchen
You just stared at her before a shudder shook your whole body and you chose to ignore her wedging yourself between Mapí and Ingrid. Ona didn't understood what was wrong but just as she was about to ask Lucy entered the kitchen still chuckling.
“What did I do?” Ona asked quietly as she prepared a plate for you
“Nothing... she found the harness and is a baby about it” Lucy still couldn't contain her chuckle at the memory of your face
“Which harness... oh... OH... oh god” Onas cheeks heat up embarrassed as she actually hit the plate with the knife she was using to cut up your fruit
“Not you too...” your sister laughed loudly
“What is happening?” Ingrid asked confused
“Lucy will need a new toothbrush” you grumbled stealing the Norwegians coffee
“You make no sense, lille venn” the black haired woman shook her head “And this looks awfully like my coffee cup”
“M gonna use it to clean the toilets at Camp Nope... after a game day” you grumbled into the mug taking a sip
“Nena” now Mapí spoke up lowly “I want to apologize for yesterday... I really didn't mean it”
“I know Mapí... you don't need to apologize... I want to apologize for scaring you... you didn't know – Lucy should have told you but yet she's hiding quite a lot in her cabinets” you said and smiled at the blonde spaniard as you tried to get one on your sister who just barked out a laugh
“You don't even know half of it, tiny” your sister choked out between laughs
You started to dry heave again as Ona swatted Lucys shoulder quiet hard
“Ah... now I understand” Ingrid smirked “You went through your sisters stuff and found something you shouldn't have”
“I didn't even went through her stuff... it was openly placed” you exclaimed as a VERY embarrassed Ona put a plate in front of you “God only know what she's hiding in her draws”
“You just need to ask, wee one...” your sister was still laughing
“AND god should be the only one knowing... aren't you ashamed talking about that when you have guests?” you looked at her like she lost it
“Who do you think recommended the shop I got the piece in questioning?” your sister couldn't stop laughing as your head automatically snapped towards Mapí thinking since she's the spaniard she would know all the places to purchase something like this
“You???” you asked outraged
“Huh??” Mapí just looked at you bewildered
“Nope Bubs... the other one” your sister smirked as your head now snapped to the other side looking like a deer at Ingrid
“What... I have a girlfriend and a life outside of football” the norwegian shrugged nonchalantly before she bit into a jam covered bread roll
“I expected a lot of you princess norwegian... but not that you're a sex driven vixen” you started to smirk “You're always so... nice... and quiet”
“No she's not” Mapí mumbled under her breath but you heard her anyway – so did Ingrid
“As if you don't love it” the norwegian shot back
“Bubs... breakfast” Lucy now interrupted your little banter with Ingrid noticing how you pushed your fruit around on your plate
“Not hungry” you mumbled
“Half the plate and I let you have some of the chocolate Mapí brought” your sister tried to negotiate with you
“Chocolate?” you asked looking up at her smiling
“Mapí brought it... as an apology” Lucy said “You get some if you eat half the plate”
“That's not fair... it's my chocolate... right Mapí it's mine” you looked at the blonde with big puppy eyes
“Sí... all for you...” the tattooed woman nodded her head quickly
“HA... give me my chocolate” you demanded looking at your sister expectantly
“Half the plate then you get some” Lucy stood her ground knowing she needs to be tough to you right now as you always were a bad eater even more so when you were mentally exhausted
“But I'm not hungry” you whined
“Do I have to call Keira?” Lucy raised an eyebrow
She knew threatening you with Keira was risky but she really just wanted the best for you. But as usual you didn't back down. Instead you had a stare off with your sister while the other three just stayed quiet not knowing how to react. Neither Lucy nor you even blinked just staring at each other. Then suddenly both of you sprung into action pulling out your phones frantically unlocking it to both dial the same contact. Lucy was the split second faster.
“Ha... already ringing... give up already” she smiled triumphal
“Never” you shot back hitting Mapís shoulder repeatedly “Give me your phone”
“I don't have it on me” the spaniard said trying to move away from your swatting hands
“Ona... need your phone... now” you sprung up quickly your chair falling backwards as you rounded the table.
“I... don't think” the young woman started
“You owe me... harness” you growled knowing every lost second was important
“Here” Ona sighed handing you her unlocked phone embarrassed
“You can't use that against her!” Lucy exclaimed still waiting for the other person to pick up
“I can and I will... over and over again” you shot back going through Onas contacts “Who is Obi-Wan... don't answer.. I don't have time...”
“Who are you looking for Bebita?” Ona said rather confused
“HA.. got it” you exclaimed excited hitting the call button
You were more successful than your sister as your chosen person answered her call nearly right away
“Sí?” you could hear the call connect just as Lucy got lucky as well
“I swear Lucy if this isn't important...” you heard Keiras voice
“My sister is mean and tries to force me to eat!” you exclaim whining into the phone
“Que?” the other person asked confused
“She won't eat...” Lucy said quickly to Keira
“My sister... she tries to force food down my throat” you whined again playing the innocent little girl card
“Bebita?” Alexia asked still half asleep “It's 7AM”
“Sí” you exclaimed still playing the innocent act
Your sister and you both quickly recap the morning to the people on your (Onas) phones before both starting to smirk pulling the phones of your ears.
“Keira wants to talk to you” Lucy smirked holding her phone out to you
“Alexia wants to talk to YOU” you smirked even wider as you held your (Onas) phone out to her
“What... what just happened?” Mapí asked her girlfriend and Ona.
Both of them just shrugging their shoulders as you started to whine all over now to Keira and Lucy animatedly spoke to Alexia. About five minutes later both of you hung up your phones looking at each other
“Laps?” you asked raising an eyebrow
“Push ups?” Lucy questioned back
“Three sets of 15... and no chocolate” you grumbled
“Five... after national break” your sister pulled a face
“Bitches” Lucy and you grumbled simultaneously before looking at each other laughing out loudly
“What was that?” Ona now asked the same question as Mapí before
“Sisterly love” your sister grinned and pushed the plate nearer to you “Come on... just a bit okay?”
“I'm really not hungry Luce... I promise I'll eat when I get hungry but not right now” you said chewing on your bottom lip which was a dead give away that you started to get stressed again
“Okay.... I'll just leave it out on the counter okay...” Lucy took your plate away while Ona just raised her eyebrow
“Can someone please explain what happened?” the youngest spaniard huffed out
“We just ratted each other out...” your sister explained shrugging her shoulders “... bit us in the ass as usual but that's how it always turns out”
“Love you Luce” you said before throwing yourself on the couch in a dramatic way just to bounce off it and land with a loud crash on the floor
“Why??” Lucy whined as she made her way over to you “You okay?”
“Yep... peachy” you coughed hard
“Up” your sister said as she pulled you into a standing position holding you up right so could breath better
“Thanks Luce” you said after a few minutes as your breathing returns to normal your head falling forward against the shoulder of your sister who just laid her arm around you holding you closely
“And you say I'm chaotic” Mapí mumbled to Ingrid
“You ARE chaotic... SHE's a walking disaster” the dark haired norwegian pointed out
“Hey Princess Norwegian... I'm just a tad clumsy” you exclaimed
“Princess Norwegian??” Ingrid asked you as she raised an eyebrow
“Pocahontas Norwegian sounded wrong in my head” you shrugged your shoulders
“Uh... does Caro get a nickyname too??” Mapí asked excited
“Guaranteed Goal Norwegian” you said after a minute of thinking which caused everyone to explode in laughter
“Pretty sure she'll love that, lille venn” Ingrid said wiping tears from her eyes.
“Bubs... I've got training this afternoon.. you want to come with me or stay at Alexias?” your sister asked quietly
“Why would I want to stay with the scary woman?” you asked confused
“Because I have training and I'm not going to leave you alone at my apartment... and Alexia has Media today so she won't be at Nuo” Lucy explained patiently
“I can stay here... I'm 16 not 3” you said baffled
“You just fell off the Couch... again” your sister deadpanned “And this time you can't blame it on Tooney...”
“It WAS Tooneys fault... she pushed me” you exclaimed annoyed
“She wasn't even in the room!!” Lucy rolled her eyes
“She WAS!” you huffed
“Okay... you know best who pushed you off the couch being dead to the world sleeping” your sister lifted her hands in surrender
“Can't the OG spaniard stay with me?” you asked looking hopefully at Ona
“I thought she was friendly spaniard?” Lucy looked confused
“Yeah... changed it to OG.. she's not friendly” you shrugged your shoulders again
“¿Disculpe?” Ona asked outraged
“What is it with you spaniards that you always want to dislocate??” you asked bewildered “The pretty spaniard said it too... you are so weird”
“It means “Excuse me” Bubs...” Lucy started laughing again at your cute innocence
“Oh... yeah... you're excused” you grinned at Ona
“What do you mean I'm not friendly??” the blonde asked still shocked
“Friendly spaniards don't scar their girlfriends little sister for live” you smirked
Ona blushed again furiously but kept quiet as Mapí started to chuckle until Ingrid threw her a murdering look
“Stop using the harness to get things out of my girlfriend” Lucy rolled her eyes as you gagged dramatically before looking at her incredulously
“Could you please rephrase that?” you said bewildered
“No... and still I haven't gotten an answer... Training or Alexia?” if Lucy rolled her eyes any more they'll probably get stuck soon
“Not going back to Camp Nope” you said sternly
“Alexia it is then” your sister huffed out happy she finally got an answer texting her capitana immediately
“But” you tried to interfere
“Nope... you're not staying here on your own” Lucy said distracted “I'll drop you off at 1 and pick you up at 5.30 okay... she has Media anyway so you'll be on your own the most time anyway”
“Ugh” you sighed annoyed rolling your eyes for getting back forced into Day care once again “Can't I stay with Keira?”
“She has training too, genius” your sister shook her head in disbelieve
“Okay...” you huffed grabbing a piece of Orange from the plate Ona prepared for you.
“Thank you.. and please... do behave – or at least pretend to behave”
“Bubs come on... we're going to be late...” your sister yelled down the hallway for you to just ignore it texting Georgia still laying on your (Lucys) bed
“BUBS!!!!” you heard again this time more adamant and yet again you ignored it.
While you grew quite close – at least for your circumstances – with the Team Capitan you had no desire to spend your afternoon with her... alone.
“Y/n Tough Pain in the ass Bronze!!!!!” Lucy tried again already on her way to her guest room
You quickly wrenched your Air Pods into your ears just as Lucy opened the door. You pretended to jump a little when she stood next to your bed kicking your ankle lightly.
“Huh?” you asked as you pulled your Air Pod out looking at her questioning
“I can't believe you... we need to GO” your sister ushered you off the bed and pushed you out the room
“I need some stuff....” you complained whining
“Ona packed your bag... MOVE” Lucy kept pushing you down the hallway “If I have to run laps because you made me late I'm gonna room with you at Camp”
Suddenly you basically ran down the hallway grabbing your sneakers on the way out sitting in the Car before Lucy was able to close the door behind her
“Here Bebita... your backpack” Ona smiled from the passenger seat holding out a bag for you as you tried to put your shoes on feeling like a gymnast at Circus de Soleil
“Knew that would work” your sister mumbled as she slipped into the drivers seat and started her car “You still won't room with G...”
“I want to room with Tooney anyway” you shrugged your shoulders
“That won't happen either... the last time you flooded your room because you wanted to wash your stuff in the shower and forgot a sock that clogged the drain and you kept the water on while falling asleep... NOT happening”
“How were we supposed to know that a sock would fit in the drain??” you exclaimed outraged
“Basic knowledge?” Lucy offered while finding your eyes in the rear mirrors
“Fuck you” you grumbled
“And that makes four sets of 15 of push ups.. you know not to swear” your sister grinned as she pulled into a drive way and killed the engine “Behave and don't cause trouble – if you piss my Capitan off you'll regret it...”
You rolled your eyes at her obviously harmless threat and looked into your backpack for the first time
“Orange slices and a Gatorade? What are you... a soccer mom?” you looked at Ona bewildered before leaving the car as you can see Alexia opening her front door
“Have fun Bubs... make good choices” your sister yelled after you laughing as you flipped her off with your left hand as you dragged your backpack behind you like a petulant child
“Hola Cariño...” Alexia greeted you smiling even as you spotted a dark look on your face
“Hi” you grumbled back “To be straight... okay... wrong wording... to be honest from the start... I don't want to be here so I just gonna sit on this couch waiting for the time to count down”
“Nice to see you too... thank you I had a good day... you too? That's wonderful” the blonde said sarcastically “What's with the attitude?”
“Lucy was mean” you grumbled
“What did she do Cariño?” Alexia asked sensing you just need to vent for a second
“I'm 16... I don't need a babysitter... and then she said I had to do another set of push ups because SHE was mean basically calling me stupid... as if the three sets of Keira aren't enough” you started your rant “And then I get Orange slices and Gatorade... again... I'm 16... not 5.. I'm still growing – I need food... not.. this”
“Done?” the blonde asked and you nodded “Okay... you won't believe it but I have food here too... and I even told Ona I would cook for you – so that front is covered... As for the push ups... I can make Lucia do them with you if you prefer but I don't think so since you're both highly competitive and probably do push ups until your arm break and I still need her for team purposes... and don't see this afternoon as being under my watch instead see it as a... how do you say... chill hangout... I have three Interviews all about 30 minutes long but you are welcome to either join or just stay out here” the catalan explained
“As if I could join in on spanish interviews” you rolled your eyes for good measure but in secret you were touched at her actions
“One is with CBS Sports... that one is english...” the blonde shrugged her shoulders as she lead you into a spacious living room pushing you gently down on the couch before moving on to the open kitchen
“Scotty?” you asked excited
“I think Alex Scott will be there, sí” Alexia answered from the kitchen where she prepared a light snack for you.
“Oh” you said sadly
“You don't like Alex Scott?” the catalan asked surprised
“Oh I absolutely love Alex... but I thought we're talking about Jill... I miss my Godaunt” you sighed realizing how long you haven't seen Jill
Mixed olives, fried baby squid, meatballs and chorizo were placed in front of you a minute later with some bread. You looked interested at the different dishes and then questioning at Alexia
“Tapas” she smiled “olives, meatballs – my mamás recipe, chorizo and baby squid”
At the words “baby squid” you made a little whiny sound and used a book that was laying around to push the plate with the offending meal as far away from you as possible. Alexia laughed out loudly at your pained facial expression
“Not a fan of sea food Cariño?” the blonde was still chuckling
“Bleh” you pulled a face
“It's okay... but I tell you know that choosing Barcelona as a get away was a bit of a wrong move – we live of Sea food” the catalan smiled
“You also live of fancy ham... Luce said something about jamming ibisco” you said nonchalantly
“Jamón Ibérico Cariño... very delicious” Alexia confirmed “I'll text Olga to pick some up on her way home”
“Olga was... girlfriend right?” you asked wrecking your brain if it was a real fact or if you made it up in your original high brain
“Sí.. she'll be home later” the blonde smiled glancing at the clock “I need to go – will you be alright alone?”
“Sí... I still have orange slices” you huffed out sarcastically
“Don't forget about the squid” the catalan laughed as she took the plate with the baby squid back to the kitchen as you gagged loudly “You're welcome to watch TV but not too loud please...”
“Okay...” you said as you already were looking for the remote and Alexia was about to leave “Oh and pretty spaniard?”
“Sí?” Alexia rolled her eyes at the nickname but smiled
“Thank you” you said and offered her a small smile
“You're very welcome Cariño” she smiled back and left you to your own.
About 5 minutes later you heard her taking quickly in spanish and you concluded (genius that you are) that the interview had begun. You tried to switch on the TV to get interrupted in your usual “press all buttons until TV turns on”-process as the doorbell rang. You weren't sure what to do since you were also just a guess so you decided to ignore it. The doorbell went off again... and again.. and again. You heard the door of Alexias (you presume) office open
“Cari... can you PLEASE get the door?” she shouted to you
“What if it's a lunatic???” you shouted back
“Punch him – we'll deal with the police later” the catalan answered shortly before disappearing again
“Okay” you said to yourself, shrugged your shoulders and pushed yourself off the couch to open the door
You already had your fist raised as you grabbed the handle turning it just slightly as the door got pushed open and some blonde hair passed past you in a flurry
“Excuse you???” you exclaimed as you follow the intruder
“Don't tell anyone I'm here” Mapí turned around looking around the living room “Ale already doing interviews?”
“Yeah....” you said kind of overwhelmed “What are you doing here?”
“I know you'd get bored so I'm here to offer my company” the blonde grinned widely
“Let me guess... no one knows?” you smirked
“Told Jonatan I'm not feeling good.... please don't tell on me” Mapí begged “Training without you isn't fun”
“We never trained together” you pointed out “But it really is boring... you can stay”
“Cariño?? Who was at the door?” Alexia now asked as she came out of her office while you pushed Mapí quickly behind the couch where she landed with a loud thud and a gritted spanish curse word left the blondes lips
“Neighbour... asked something in spanish... I said “no spaniard” and shrugged my shoulders.. I didn't punch him... he used the dislocate word and left” you said hopefully which kind of tipped Alexia off
“Older man or younger?” she asked suspicious
“Ehrm... around mid 40s?” you said but it came out as a question
“And now the truth, hm?” the catalan smiled fake
“A friend....” you answered vague
“And where is said friend?” the blonde just didn't let go
“I don't see her at the moment” you answered confident – which technically wasn't a lie... you didn't SEE Mapí at the moment.
“Cariño... I give you one and ONE warning only... I will make you sit with me in my office if you cause trouble” Alexia said lifting her index finger threatening “Same for you María León”
“HOW?” you whined throwing your arms in the air
“Please... as if María would let the opportunity pass to be unsupervised with you also she used a word that I banned her from using... I'm surprised that she didn't rope Patri and Pina in to join her.. what did you tell Jona?”
“Not feeling well” a small voice came from behind the couch “Patri and Pina send their regards but Jona wouldn't let them leave”
“Unbelievable” the blonde huffed “Only and LAST warning... no trouble... I still have two interviews”
“Yes ma'am” you saluted half heartily
“Sí Ale... gracias” Mapí said grinning as her head appeared from behind the couch looking like a meerkat
“I can't believe I'm doing this” Alexia mumbled to herself but left again for her next interview
“Okay... what do you want to do Nena?” Mapí asked the second the office door fell close
“Dunno... I don't know my way around here” you shrugged your shoulders
Mapí just rolled her eyes and hit you with a pillow. You looked dumb folded as the blonde spaniard started to laugh hysterically
“You... didn't” you said shocked
“Your face...” Mapí laughed just as she got hit by a pillow in the face
“Oh Nena... that was a mistake” the blonde said evilly as she grabbed your pillow hitting you over and over again as you just had time to pull your arms up to your face to keep it save. Nonetheless you started laughing trying to get away from Mapís assault. You kick the spaniard lightly against the tight which caused her to tumble and you used the moment to roll off the couch getting successfully away. You grabbed a new pillow now whacking the blonde over and over the head from behind the couch. Mapí recovered quickly launching herself at you just to miss you as you stepped aside still laughing. The blonde pushed herself up starting to chase you around the couch pillow ready to hit you again once she's close enough. You chased each other a while around the living room before deciding to basically use the whole apartment. Of course that wasn't such a great decision as you stumbled over a small step between the living room and the hallway and flew against a cabinet. Thankfully you turned yourself so you would just sacrifice your left shoulder instead of your face. Mapí immediately stopped behind you watching with big eyes as Alexias Ballon d'Or started to tumble and then went topple over the edge of the shelf. You looked up from your half sitting position at the bottom of the cabinet quickly shuffling backwards as you saw the trophy falling down. It missed you by mere centimetres as it crashed into the floor with a loud bang and split in two half as you watched the Ball part roll away slowly.
Immediately the office door got ripped open and Alexia looked down the hallway
“Everythings good” you yelled hoping to prevent the catalan to come over to explore what the crashing sound was
“I told you... keep it down” she scolded the two of you before going back to her interview
“We're fucked” Mapí whisper yelled “That trophy was holy to her”
“We're not fucked if we repair it... I didn't even knew it could brake... isn't that thing unholy heavy... why does it break so easily??” you said back just as much panic in your voice as Mapí had seconds before
“HOW do you want to repair a Ballon d'Or???” the blonde asked her voice still low
“Hot glue?” you shrugged your shoulders having no idea
“We don't have hot glue” Mapí looked at you like you lost it
“You have a brain too you know... now would be a good time to use it” you snapped
“I'm trying... but all I can think about is how Ale will rip my head off... then my brain is lost too” the blonde whined
“What if we just put it in between the books? Like using the books to hold the ball in place” you mused looking at Mapí expectantly
“Better than my idea of hiding in a tree and befriend a squirrel and train it to bring us food and water” she said already starting to grab all the books that were laying around
You quickly helped Mapí retrieve as many books as you could find and soon you had the shelf filled with books
“Okay... you grab the bottom part I get the bloody ball and we just stuff it in there and then never mention it again” you huffed
“Deal... if she EVER finds out... it was already broken as she got it” Mapí nodded as you grabbed the golden ball and placed it in its socket hoping it would stay there.
Thankfully it did and you two carefully walked backwards as if you feared that one to hard step would break the Trophy again.
“Jesús Mará y José!!!!” Alexia exclaimed as she entered the living room where you and Mapí chilled on the couch snacking on your orange slices
“WHAT happened here???” the blonde asked shocked turning around herself taking in her basically destroyed living room
There were pillows everywhere, the lamp from the side table on the floor (thankfully still intact), magazines scatter all over the floor, pictures were now hanging askew on the wall and her coffee table was now in the middle of the room when it was just in front of the couch about 45 Minutes ago.
“There... were robbers... we fought for our lives” Mapí said quickly – too quickly and you slapped your forehead
“I don't know if I should yell or just leave” Alexia said to herself taking in her living room once again
“I vote for the latter” you said smiling hopefully
“I second that” the tattooed spaniard nodded
“I... I... no... I can't do this right now... clean this up – when I come back here in 30 minutes I want a clean room and you María will leave immediately after you are done cleaning up... if not you both run laps until your legs fall off – and then some more” Alexia shook her head leaving the two of you to clean up your mess
“That went better than expected” you grinned as you heard Alexia mumble in the hallway
“I'm never going to have children – and if I do I raise them to be fully functional human beings” the catalan said to herself still shaking her head in disbelieve
It took Mapí and you a total of 18 minutes to tidy up the living room. After that the blonde spaniard left not without checking with you if it's really okay. You send the tattooed woman on her way telling her you're tired anyway and that she better think of a good excuse she could give her girlfriend for just fucking off from training. When you heard the door fall close you flopped down on the couch got comfortable and fell asleep in an instant.
“Alexia... you still with us?” Micah asked as he noticed that the blonde spaniard was kind of distracted
“Sí – I'm sorry” Alexia snapped back to her interview with CBS
“You look distracted... is everything alright?” Alex Scott now asked seeing the deep frown Alexia was showing
“Yeah.... a.. friend had some errands to run and asked me if I could watch her sister... and it's just TOO quiet now” the catalan explained quickly getting more and more suspicious of the quietness in her apartment
“If you want to check on her that's totally okay... “ Alex reassured the spaniard who looked at her thankfully standing up quickly
She made her way to the living room already ready to yell at you and Mapí for whatever shenanigans you were up to but the only thing she found was an (okay) cleaned up room with you fast asleep on the couch. Alexia quickly covered your sleeping form with a blanket and left to not disturb your sleep which she knew you desperately needed
“Everything okay?” Micah asked as Alexia sat back down in front of the camera
“Yes... she's asleep – that's why it's so quiet... but you know how it is with kids... the quieter it gets...” the blonde smiled
“... the more trouble they get into... don't tell me” Thierry rolled his eyes for good measure “How old?”
“16” Alexia laughed at the surprised face Thierry is showing “She's an absolute gold star but a walking disaster”
“Sounds like someone I know” Alex threw in
“Oh yes – you definitely know her” the catalan winked
“Oh my God... how did you end up on BB duty... my condolences to your nerves” the former Lioness laughed
“Condolences?” Alexia asked confused looking at Kate
“Condolencias” Kate Abdo translated
“Oh... yes... thank you – I can confirm my nerves are ready to retire...” the blonde catalan laughed
“Who's BB?” Micah asked confused looking at Alex for explanation
“A friends little sister” the brown haired woman grinned and winked at Alexia
“You not telling us?” Thierry sighed
“No... because it's a private matter – what isn't tho is my midfield” Alex circled back to the original topic
15 minutes later the interview got wrapped up and the live part was over. Alexia was about to end the call as Alex spoke up
“Alexia... give her a hug from me, yeah... she's greatly missed around here” the brown haired woman smiled warmly
“I will pass it on” the catalan smiled back and ended the call
She left her office to quickly throw a glance into the living room if you woke up but you still snored lightly on the couch turned on your side your head buried in a mountain of pillows so that Alexia was completing if you were in danger of suffocating. But after hearing you sigh happily in your sleep she decided to just leave you be. The catalan quickly texted Olga to let her know to be quiet when she entered the apartment and told her she would hit the gym – which was a former guest room that got converted into a home gym. Her girlfriend answered quickly with a thumbs up and Alexia walked down the hallway getting changed and starting to work out the door of her gym slightly open to hear you if you needed something. You slept like a Bronze. Keira once described it as “a dead corps which got run over with a truck five times to be sure it's dead... that's who Bronzes sleep”. Both you and Lucy disagreed loudly to just be shut down with one look by Keira. You didn't notice Alexia checking on you twice or that her girlfriend Olga came home starting to prepare dinner straight away. You DID wake up when your nose registered food tho – just like Lucy you could eat like a harvester. Just not every time while your sister would be happy to eat anytime and anywhere. Your brain still foggy from sleeping you shuffled over to the kitchen not realizing that it wasn't Alexia in the kitchen but Olga so you just flopped down on a chair at the island as you made yourself known
“Bon... whatever you say at this time of the day... what time is it anyway?” you mumbled looking confused
“Buena tardes” the brown haired woman answered as she turned around smiling “But Hola always works”
“Bon Buenos tartlets then...” you mumbled scratching your head still not noticing you weren't talking to Alexia
“No.. just Buenas tardes” the woman laughed and you thought her laugh was different.
That was the moment you looked up and was met with Olga Rios face. It took you a second to process the face before springing backwards knocking your chair over stepping backwards successfully falling over said chair flying backward screeching panicked
“STRANGER DANGER!!! STRANGER DANGER!!!” you yelled loudly getting tangled up with the chair as Olga couldn't do anything except for looking at you confused and shocked.
Your yelling brought Alexia on site as she came running down the hallway. She rounded the corner to the living room quickly to get rooted in her spot taking in the scene in front of her. Olga behind the kitchen island looking shocked and confused as you started to fight a chair on the ground. Olgas eyes made contact with Alexias and she looked at her blonde girlfriend helplessly.
“Cariño” Alexia said rather loudly to get your attention
“Stranger Alexia...” you panted out your leg stuck in the back rest of the chair
“Cari... calm down...” the catalan said softly as she carefully stepped towards you
“There's a stranger in your kitchen and I have to calm down???” you asked bewildered
“Not a stranger Cariño... that's Olga... say hi to my girlfriend Cariño” Alexia chuckled as she grabbed your ankle stilling it
“Olga the girlfriend?” you asked suspicious looking up from your spot on the floor
“Sí... mi amor” the spaniard smiled
“Not a clue what that meant...” you shrugged your shoulders as Alexia tried to free your foot from the chair
Finally the catalan got your foot freed and helped you standing up. You were still slightly wary of the other woman and pushed yourself partly behind Alexia
“It's okay Cariño... no stranger or danger... just Olga” the catalan said softly as she noticed you hiding behind her
“Buenas tardes” the woman in question smiled heart warming
“Hi” you said carefully trying to get a read on the new woman
“She needs a moment” Alexia explained to her girlfriend
“It's okay... maybe we can get to know each other over some Gambas al ajillo” the woman smiled
“No Gambas” you screeched shocked “Ew”
Alexia couldn't help herself but burst out laughing at your face and the offended look her girlfriend threw your way
“She doesn't like sea food, mi amor... I'll just whip up some Albondigas... I'll share the Gambas with you” the blonde chuckled as she leaned over the counter pressing a soft kiss to her girlfriend lips which made you gag loudly
“¿Disculpe?” Alexia raised her eyebrow as she turned towards you
“Stop dislocating shit...” you exclaimed knowing how to annoy the spaniard “... and stop doing... that.. got that at home enough”
“I'm kissing my girlfriend excuse me for showing affection to the woman I love” the catalan answered sarcastically
“You have children in the room” you shot back
“Really?? I didn't noticed before when you were eating orange slices” Alexia smirked
“Olga... Alexia is mean” you whined to the woman
“Excuse me?!” the catalan said bewildered and annoyed at the same time
“Alexia... Deja al pequeño” the darker haired woman smirked at the footballer
“¿Disculpe?!!!” the catalan questioned outraged
You didn't understand one word BUT at the tone Alexia used you knew Olga just defended you.
“She just yelled Stranger Danger at you!” Alexia exclaimed
“You could have told her that I would be home later so she wouldn't be as surprised” Olga waved her girlfriend off and you smirked
To you sadness it was the exact moment the door bell rang. Alexia huffed annoyed as she turned to open the door. On the other side was your smiling sister. The catalan stepped to the side to let Lucy in.
“Hey Bubs... Olga” your sister greeted still smiling
“Hola Lucia” the brown haired woman smiled “¿Te quedas a cenar?”
“No gracias. Todavía tengo que empacar para el campamento y este de aquí también necesita empacar” Lucy answered and pulled you into her side
“Shit... you really do speak spanish” you said in awe
“Told you” she grinned kissing the crown of your head “Were you good for Lex?”
“So good” you smiled pressing yourself against her body
“Really... so why is there a clip that went viral of Alexia in the middle of an interview with a loud crash in the background and her cussing you and Mapí out under her breath?” your sister asked grinning widely
“Ay dios mio” the catalan exclaimed throwing her hands up
“Sorry Ale” you said putting on an innocent look
“No you're not” the catalan smiled “... it's just who you are... and now off you go and pack for camp”
“Ugh... don't remind me... travel day with Lucy is exhausting” you rolled your eyes and carefully hugged the spaniard “Bon arrivederci” you winked before running out to the car where Ona is waiting
“Look after her Lucy” Alexia said quietly “She is precious – but she's hurting so much... I can see it in her eyes... there will be a time when she needs you and you better be there for her”
“I know... I know Lex... and I hope that it helped her to come here...” Lucy smiled sadly
“I think it did – I think she sees that family is more than blood... even Mapí” the blonde chuckled
“Mapí would give her life for y/n” your sister smiled as she watched you jumping on Onas back
“We all would...” Alexia smiled watching you too as you wrecking balled into her spanish national teammate
“See you in two weeks Capi” Lucy smiled as she grabbed your back pack ready to leave
“Adiós Lucy... keep an eye on her” Alexia smiled as she quickly hugged the englishwoman before she saw Ona trying to stuff you into the backseat of the car with you pushing your feet into the door laughing loudly
“Take care Cariño” the blonde spaniard mumbled as she closed the door and turned to her girlfriend who was smiling
“You like her” Olga smiled
“I do... she's special” the catalan said “She went through so much and still she has a heart of gold”

I need more content of the bg3 companions cuddling, okay here's my pitch:
Everyone piling on top of Karlach and falling asleep (a classic)
a group hug with Wyll smushed in the center
Gale hooking his arms Shadowheart and Lae'zel's shoulders because he lacks a healthy fear of death and/or bodily harm
Karlach holding Astarion like a teddy bear while Shadowheart is asleep in her lap like a cat
Gale, once again with no regard for his own personal safety, somehow ending up with Astarion sitting in front of him like they're sledding so he can lecture him show him the best parts of his book
Wyll gets curious about what they're reading and joins in, then Karlach notices, then suddenly the whole camp including Withers is piled around them for Bedtime Stories With Gale
Karlach seeing if she can pick up and carry everyone all at once, which requires all of them to hang onto someone and help each other out (which they do once they've determined they're actually going to attempt this, no bullshit)
This ends in lots of yelling and, shockingly, no one losing an eye. Lae'zel threatens to murder Gale for picking her up, Astarion claims he wouldn't touch her with a six-foot pole while hanging off of Karlach's bicep, his legs wrapped around Shadowheart, who is holding onto Karlach like a baby koala. Meanwhile Wyll is trying to climb past Gale without getting in the Lae'zel Line of Fire or snapping Karlach's neck, who is unbothered and yelling for Withers to come join them or it won't count (he Does Not)
Shadowheart, Lae'zel, and Astarion huddling in their Gossip Corner to talk shit. Shadowheart ends up draped over Astarion's lap while he re-braids her hair and Lae'zel is sitting behind them on a log or something with her elbow propped on Astarion's shoulder, making occasional comments about how poor of a job he's doing
Wyll and Karlach using each other as weighted blankets. Gale wants in the moment he finds out about it. Then Astarion discovers what they've been up to. Then Shadowheart. Are you seeing the trend. They literally cant function as individuals anymore. They have to rotate around like gas station hot dogs
Speaking of dogs, Scratch joins the Karlach Cuddle Pile some nights to keep warm. And the owlbear, who always singles a certain vampire out. Astarion likes it complains very loudly about it
Scratch is Karlach’s bestie and usually ends up sleeping directly on her face. They're all sure they're going to find her dead like that one morning

so there's been at least two times with a camp vargas in twst... imagine having mated and everything with the twins/one of the twins and then there's a camp to get to. don't know if you've played it but if not, feel free to delete the ask!
anyway so it's canon yuu gets scared easily (in twst at least, new world and new people) right? so what if the twins and yuu are at the camp at the same time and the "monster" appears? protective twins mode guard eels on 🫡 imagine the shenanigans LOL
It will highly depend on the timeline and which twins you are with, or if you're with both.
The sports club Camp Vargas takes place first, so assuming that you're mates with Floyd (and/or Jade) at this point, he's trying his best to get you to stick around the Basketball Club to show off how cool he is. it gets to the point that Vargas actually has to threaten to take away points from the club to get the others to shoo you away from a pouting Floyd. Afterwards, he's decided that it's no longer fun without his mate around, and kinda mopes around after catching the fish for food. So when the “monster” first appears near your camping spot, he's shifted into “moray protect shrimp” mode! It's cute, how he shifts from his more casual mannerisms and mood with the others and turns into a softer, more concerned person with you. Even the others take note of the behavior change. And when you get taken with the rest of the students later in the night, it's a rapid mood shift to an anxious, but angry Floyd. It takes Sebek, Jack, and Ruggie to hold him back from running off into the woods by himself to find you. Just you, though, he doesn't care about the other guppies. At the conclusion of the night, after the reveal, Floyd is clinging to you like a koala to a tree. He has half a mind to throw a rock at Vargas's big head, but doesn't feel like going to detention the next day.
On the other hand, with Jade it's a bit nicer. Of your you weren't allowed to tell Jade or any of the other Art/Science Club students about the “monster,” but even Floyd was happy to send Jade off to experience the same stress he had his night. Jade doesn't try to monopolize your time, at least not in a way that's obvious. He is however, coaxing you to come by with a promise of a pretty flower he found, or his catfish with he expertly seasoned and seared. It does work, and it flies under Vargas's nose. It starts to go a bit downhill when Vargas does his monster bit again, as you and Grim aren't the worse actors, but Jade is very perceptive. He's not concerned when the students first started going missing, as you and Grim seem to be rather relaxed about the whole ordeal. But when the second “creature” comes around and actually snatches you from his grasp, your terrified screams echoing in his head, Jade is desperate to get you back. This time it's Azul trying his best to calm a frantic Jade, Trey and Vil watching on in surprise as the usually calmer twin looks close to both murder and tears. Like the last time, the night ends with you wrapped in your eel's arms, Jade checking you over for any marks or bruises. Later, he returns to the dorm to strangle his brother. Tenfold if you're mated with both, as he's furious that Floyd didn't warn him about the “monsters” and your faux kidnapping. Please stop them before they wreck the dining room again.

Inventor
John Egan X mechanics! Reader
Summary: Y/n likes to craft stuff, everyone thinks she's crazy. But one day, her gadgets come handy.
Warning: Swearing/ use of Y/n/ mention of an explosion.
Word count: 700 words
Tumblr media
When Lemmons bought his sister on the base, pilots were curious. When he asked the Colonel to bring her, he said that she was an inventor, and she could help fix the planes. But ever since she came, her inventions were not helpful at all, she was living in a small cabin, where she would stock her inventions. Colonel Harding often went to see her, with Buck, Bucky and Crosby. They made sure that what she was building wasn’t going to make the base blow up. ‘’Y/n, what are you working on today?’’ Colonel asked. She stopped what she was doing and looked at the men entering her cabin. ‘’An atomic bomb’’ she said, sarcastically. Harry Crosby went to touch one of her inventions. ‘’Don’t touch that!’’ she shouted. He flinched and looked at her. ‘’Why?’’ He asked. ‘’Because it could literally kill everyone in the room’’ she walked up to her invention to be sure that it wasn’t damaged. ‘’THAT COULD KILL US?’’ Bucky shouted, stressing. ‘’YES! How many times do I have to tell you to not touch anything!’’ she said. ‘’Why would you build something that could kill people?’’ Colonel Harding sign, he was growing tired of her crazy inventions. ‘’We’re in a war! It could kill Germans!’’ She said, hitting Bucky’s hand because he was about to touch something. He looked at her shocked about the fact that she just hit him. ‘’Y/n, we have to get you on a plane, we need at least one mechanics where we’re going’’ Buck asked. Her eyes lit up, but before she could ask the question, Bucky stopped her. ‘’No, you can’t bring any of these’’ he pointed at her inventions. She pouted. ‘’But I’m bringing my tools, we never know if we could need them’’ she said, closing the small pouch and putting it in her bra. The men blinked in disbelief. ‘’What? It won’t fall in the air’’ she blurted out. Crosby rolled his eyes as they made their way outside.
‘’That was a stupid idea’’ she said. She was glued to Bucky’s body as their parachute made their fall less scary. They needed to abandon their plane, since she didn’t have a chute, Bucky took her in his arms, she was hanging onto him like a koala. ‘’Shut up’’ he rolled his eyes. ‘’Don’t you drop me, Egan’’ she ordered. ‘’Don’t tempt me Lemmons junior’’ he said. She looked at the ground. ‘’What are you looking at?’’ he asked her. ‘’Checking of how high I would fall’’ she fakes smiled. ‘’How come you’re not in a mental institute?’’ he mumbled.
It has been 2 months since they’ve arrived in the camp. Her hair was starting to grow back, so she had to cut it. ‘’Buck, you still have that knife?’’ she asked him as he shook his head. She took the pouch of tools out of her bra and started to build something. When she’s done, she looks at the D-I-Y pair of scissors she just made. ‘’Bucky, can you help me?’’ she hands him her gadget. He takes the scissors and start to cut the excess of hair. She cut them so the Germans won’t think she’s pretty, she didn’t want to get assaulted. When Bucky was done, Y/n thanked him and put the scissors at the place she was hiding her other inventions.
‘’Are you sure this won’t blow up?’’ Bucky asked. ‘’I’m about 75% sure that this won’t explode. It’s a radio, not a bomb’’ she faked laughed, she wasn’t sure if this was going to explode or not. ‘’For fuck’s sake’’ he breathed out while putting a hand on his forehead. ‘’Relax, it won’t blow up, she’s knows what she’s doing’’ Buck tried to reassure everyone. She took a deep breath before opening the device. At first, she didn’t hear anything, but when some German words came to her ears, she was smiling. She adjusted the device. ‘’I got it, it’s the BBC’’ she announced, smiling. The guys cheered for her, and Bucky even kissed her cheek. ‘’Clearly, we would be dead without you! Thank you so much!’’ Bucky said. ‘’We could still die with her’’ Crank joked. ‘’Be careful with what you’re saying before I make you bed blow up’’ she threatened with a smile.

Pretty like the wind
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Previous chapter / Next chapter
a/n the eleventh part! I'm sooo sick but still wanted to put out a chapter for y'all because it's been a while. Thank you for the love. For everything. For loving this little piece of my brain. ✨🤍
warning: kids, past trauma, blood, wounds, all the Illyrian camps horror, smoking, nightmares.
•••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Zofie was sprawled out on Azriel's chest. Her tiny limbs were on either side of him. Even with her trying to hold onto the spymaster as if she were a little koala climbing the tree, the length of her arms and legs barely covered his ribcage. So she was left there, lying like a little sea star. Azriel's eyes were closed, but from the way he slowly ran his fingers through Zofie's hair, you could tell that he wasn't asleep. You couldn't help the little smile that spread across your face. Zofie hadn't slept through a single night when you finally got to see her. She was tossing and turning. Clinging onto any emotion she felt swirling around, not sure how to block out the overwhelming waves. But not with Azriel. The male seemed to be the only person able to make her busy head shut down.
When Rhys finally winnowed back to the house of wind late last night, Zofie was in his arms, rubbing her eyes tiredly. But the moment she saw Azriel leaning against the wall, she nearly left the high lord's shirt in scraps as she wiggled to get down, her tiny feet instantly darting towards him. The same way she had rushed towards him in his mother's house when he had come to see them. No one stopped her this time. Her eyes were full of tears midway through the distance she had to cross to reach him. "Azriel", Zofie had muttered so quietly, so wearily, as if a breath too hard might chase him away. "Hi, baby Z", Azriel muttered softly, "Come here, sweet girl". She launched into his chest with all of her force, clinging to his broad shoulders and nuzzling against his chest. His tiny, flickering star. So tired. So warn out. Azriel leaned down to kiss her head. The need to soothe the discomfort that she felt bubbling deep within him.
But Azriel's eyes had darted upwards. To the boy who stood there. Eyes cast down. As if he was hoping to be forgotten. As if he was prepared to be. Azriel reached out an arm toward him. Axel's emotions were a whole different story. The boy needed a male in his life. Someone who he could trust and look up to. "You hadn't gotten too big for hugs, huh?", the spymaster had joked. Axel's eyes glossed over with tears. "I'm sorry", the boy muttered, shaking his head, "I didn't mean to".
But Azriel only smiled his way, "If I had been in your shoes, I would have protected my sister the same way", Axel's hopeful eyes met his. "We tangled ourselves in a ball of misunderstanding. But you have nothing to be sorry for", and these words had been the undoing. The final straw that had sent Axel rushing into Azriel's arms as well. "I got so scared you would leave us just like everyone else did", the boy admitted through the hiccups, Azriel reached to cup the back of his head, bringing him closer to his eye level, "But I'm here, aren't I? I haven't left".
They had slept holding onto Azriel the whole night, and even now, with the morning sun high up in the sky, neither of them was stirring. You had slithered out of bed rather quickly. The bitter taste of your nightmare lingered. The guilt lingered. The guilt of potentially keeping the kids away from the man who was supposed to be their legal guardian. But your insecure heart played a big part in hurting them all. Hurting Azriel. Your mate... "You're thinking so hard, my brain might boil over", Azriel called out from the bed, making you turn your head to the side.
You tightened the blanket you had around your shoulders. "Are you going back today?", You chose to change the topic quickly. The longing you felt for this man was unmatched, but the claws from your past held you back. Swirling around your head, you painted images that weren't real. For the most part, at least. "I have a couple of meetings, but for the most part, I just want to be here", Azriel said. You felt his eyes on you. Watching you carefully. It was almost as if you were a wild animal. One that could start flailing around out of nowhere. "Maybe train with Axel, but I think that might have to wait", Azriel continued, trying to keep the conversation afloat.
"Wait... Why?", you muttered, turning around to face the male, lying in the bed that felt way too big when it was just you and the kids sprawled out in it. "Do you have a wrap?", the spymaster questioned. You frowned, "A wrap?", "Yeah, something I can snuggle Zofie in so she can continue sleeping". You blinked a couple of times. He wasn't serious, right? You misunderstood him. Had to. "Azriel...", your voice died down as you shook your head slightly. "This had drained her", Azriel stated firmly, running his hand up and down the girl's back. Her squished cheeks looked so sweet, with slightly parted lips and cheeks all rosy from the deep sleep.
You shook your head once more, "You can't go around wearing her against your chest". He was a spymaster of the night court. A predator. A scary male. Not a family man. At least not in front of the people in power. "Why not?", Azriel asked as if he quite literally didn't understand why this was making you confused. "To a meeting?", you questioned his choice once more, but he only shrugged, "She needs me; I rather know she's sleeping than wonder how much she can go on without a proper rest". Your heart swelled, beating just a tad stronger. You tilted your head slightly, watching them. Watching the way the two kids had melted again, Azriel, wondering if he knew just how much they loved him. How much you wanted him to take them away from the place they had to grow up in? You opened your mouth but closed it quickly.
"I have to go back to the sanctuary", you breathed out after a heartbeat. You didn't want to go. That was the last place you wanted to be, but you felt obligated to. "You don't have to", Azriel stated calmly. "I have duties", You laid down the well-learned lines. Making sure there was no way to detect a tremble in your voice. "You're off duty till that attack is taken care of", he was quick to remind you, and you knew. You knew, but... "I have...", you muttered, feeling your hands turning into fists beneath the blanket, the scabbing skin ripping beneath the bandages. Azriel let out a breath, taking a moment to let you breathe before saying, "You don't have to, but if you want to, I will take you".
It all felt so weird. Azriel was still waiting for someone to trip over an empty bottle and wake him up. Mirthroot to wear off and chase the illusions away. He had held you last night. Had even kissed you a couple of times. You were there. You had to be because he felt the warmth from your skin, and you felt so close. The bond had been singing quietly. Yes, the kissing died down quickly. Yes, all you had done for the most part was lay your head on his shoulder. Breathing. Pulling yourself together. And Azriel stood there. He stood there with his hands on your hips, like he always did. He felt the guilt. The way you questioned your choice of bring Elain into this, the way you felt jealous of her, the way it ate at you. Your self-esteem. So he stood there. Letting you be in the same space. Chasing the fear away. How much was going on in that head of yours? How much of it was still a mystery to him?
"You're listening?", Azriel blinked a couple of times, only to be met with Rhys looking at him with an annoyed expression. He was thinking too hard himself and stroking Zofie's hair had put Azriel in a trance of sorts. You had ripped the black sheets up just so you two could fasten the girl against the spymaster's chest. She hadn't stirred even once. If not for the raising of her chest, one could mistake her for being dead.
"She has raw magic running through her", Rhys stated, his own eyes fixed on the slumbering face. Azriel hummed. He had suspected that there was more to Zofie as well, by the handful of emotions she, not doubt without knowing, released into his system by touch alone. "Yeah, hence why she's sleeping", Azriel nodded. Making a mental note to find someone who could teach her how to control the gift that she had. But not now. Not everything at once.
"Come on, tell me about the camps", Azriel nodded towards the pile of papers that the three of them had been ignoring for the past hour. Catching up with his brothers was nice, but not what Azriel needed now. Rhysand swirled the whiskey in his glass, taking a slow sip. "It was a setup", the high lord breathed. Azriel growled at that, "Rhys, stop playing", that was as clear as day. It was planned. Anyone with a working brain cell could tell. The question was, why? And by whom?
"We found a couple of leads, but they are questionable", Cassian added, crossing his arms over his chest as he spoke. "Why would they target her? Because of her magic?", Azriel questioned. He had run through the list of logical reasons over and over again, and nothing else made sense. It had to be the magic. The fact that the sanctuary used your powers to lead their missions.
"Yes and no", Rhys breathed, his eyes falling on the painting of his mate that hung in his office. Azriel had found him staring at it more than once. Had made fun of it more than once. But now he knew better. Rhys found peace in it. He found peace in Feyre, and Azriel couldn't hold it against him. "They have unpaid debts with her. Well, that's what they believe", the high lord added. Azriel shook his head; if not for Zofie, who was snuggled against him, he would be hitting his firsts against the table by now, "Rhys, you're talking in riddles, and that's pissing me off". The high lord turned to meet his brother's eyes, "Has she told you how she ended up in the sanctuary?" No, and to be fair, Azriel had just naively believed that you loved the job, and it was simple like that. But with the importance that everyone has placed on your magic, it seemed to be a whole different story. Not to mention another thing that was making the territorial male within him stir as he said, "No, but I assume you do". It was clear from the way Rhys had looked at you that night on the balcony. There was more. Rhys, too, had played a part in your life. And Azriel knew that Rhys had sought someone out when the panic of losing Feyre had almost driven him to madness, but he never thought that it would have been you.
"You know I can't...", Rhys breathed, but Azriel was quick to cut him off, "Tell me one thing, then. Is this related to the thing that presumably chased her in the woods up the hill?", from the way the two males nearly pealed, Azriel knew the answer without words. "Chased her?", Rhys leaned forward, brows furrowed. "No one can get near the house of wind...", Rhys put a finger up to silence Cassian. Azriel held his high lord's gaze. A pang of almost jealousy pierced him. Rhys knew more than Azriel did. But until the moment you felt comfortable opening up, he would have to trust Rhys's knowledge and judgment. "Azriel. Who chased her?", so the spymaster told them everything that he knew and saw just the other night.
The place seemed colder. It was colder and much more suffocating as you walked through the white corridors. You could hear the kids singing from the main communal hall. The sound of their voices was the only thing soothing you now. You had become used to this place. You had sworn to never leave it. What was out there anyway? What did they have that you couldn't get here? The answer was Azriel. You knew that now. Your mind swirled around his warm hands. The comfort that washed over you when he was close. Then why were you so afraid to let yourself love him? To trust once more.
The clicking of Padme's quill pen filled the empty hallway. You hadn't even realized that you had once again returned to her office after finalizing the paperwork she had asked you to summarize for her. The high prestress didn't even lift her head as you stepped in, carefully lowering the folders on her desk.
"When will you be fit to go on another mission? The situation in the camps is unsettling", she said calmly, continuing to write. You stilled. For the first time in forever, your head started to scream—never, I'm not going back. I will never face them again. But you pushed the thoughts aside, "I can't summon; my hands haven't healed", you turned your still-bandaged palms in front of her. But Padme only let out a little chuckle, "Haven't you, or are you not letting them heal?", the priestess met your gaze. Piercing through your walls. You knew she would never buy it. You had healing magic running through your blood. This should have been healed the moment your body was free from iron. But you had prevented it from...
"The children must be returned to the sanctuary", the words made your blood freeze over, big eyes darting up to meet her, "Padme, don't do this". You were ready to beg. You would not let go of them. You would bear your cross, but the kids will not live a life of isolation just because of you. "They need to continue their education", Padme reached for another book, as if she wasn't having the most important conversation with you now. "They are learning alongside the high lord's son", you bit back, trying to contain your emotions but feeling your magic sizzling without your veins. "You are willing to break their hearts like that? What will happen when this pink mirage fades?", the high priestess stated bluntly, without a doubt not missing the way a shiver ran through your body.
"It won't", you breathed out. You were willing to do anything and give up everything if only Axel and Zofie could finally have the family they deserved. "You're sure?", Padme leaned across the table, watching your every move. Scanning you. Assessing you. "A sacrifice lamb and her two children", she breathed, almost in amazement. "You're not a princess, and he sure won't be your prince charming", Padme slapped the book shut, making a shiver run down your spine. Everything went dark for a moment before your knees hit the solid surface.
"Hold it steady, but don't tighten your grip on it", Azriel said in his soldier's tone. "That's you denying your own words", Axel grumbled, "How can you hold something steady but not have a firm grip on it". Azriel couldn't help but chuckle. He had forgotten the frustration one had to go through to learn the basics of fighting. Sure, he had trained with Feyre and then Nesta when she finally warmed up to the idea, but it would never be the same as teaching a child. A youngling. "If you hold it too firmly when you aim to throw", Azriel said, tightening the grip on his wooden knife's hilt, "It will affect the throw; it will be hard to hit the target". Azriel moved stepped forward. "But if you'll hold it loosely", the spymaster quickly knocked the weapon out of the boy's hands, "Your opponent will use that again."
Azriel had offered flying lessons, but Axel had denied them. "I want to learn to protect them", the boy muttered, "Actually protect them". And who was he to deny him? Azriel was already at the camp, learning the basics at a similar age. "That's just not fair", the boy grumbled, leaning forward to reach for the wooden knife, only for Azriel to flick it further away. "Hey!", Axel protested, making Azriel let out a chuckle. Even Zofie, who woke up not that long ago, giggled from the side of the training ground. You could barely see her beneath the layers Azriel had wrapped her up in. She had turned into a little floating head. But she was warm, and the chilly breeze would not nibble at her, that's all that Azriel cared about.
Azriel was ready to beat Axel to it once more until Zofie muttered, "Nyx said he'd teach me", the spymaster turned back quickly. "Pardon? Ow!", a light stab pierced through his left foot as Axel jabbed the wooden knife there, already running off laughing like a manic. "Why was Nyx talking to you about knives?", Azriel pulled his attention back to the little girl. An odd sense of protectiveness bubbled within him. Zofie shrugged her shoulders, "He just said that if I wanted to learn something, I could ask him". It was all innocent and sweet, but Azriel still shook his head. "Why don't you ask me first, yeah? Just to make sure", he cupped her crimson cheek. Under his dead body, will any boy teach his star anything? He'll have a word with Rhys about this. Nyx was way older too; he needed to understand the importance of suggestions like this. "Okay, little monsters, let's go inside before you both turn into ice cubes", he quickly scooped Zofie up, making the girl let out a chuckle, sending a handful of his shadows to drag a still-laughing Axel into the house as well.
When you yanked the doors of the house of wind open, you couldn't even identify the emotions that swirled within you. Padme had dumped down the slope of the mountain. You could see the house, but the walk there was quite steep. You had gritted your teeth. Had cursed her. But the scary thing was that you couldn't feel Azriel. It's like someone ripped the part that belonged just to him out. Leaving a big chunk of nothingness.
Azriel's head swirled towards the door, "What the hell are you doing here?", he was out of his seat almost immediately. You had agreed that he would come pick you up. You would pull at the bond, and he would be there in a heartbeat. He should have known that something was not right from just how silent the bond was. Too quiet. Too little emotions slipping by. No emotions.
"How did you get here?", Azriel quickly reached for you, looking you over. You just shook your head. You had no idea how Padme had done that, or was it even her in the first place? It was all too tangled up. There was so much tension everywhere. Your hands were throbbing beneath the bandages. You just wanted to let it all go. To just...
A warm palm cups your cold cheek. "You've been crying", Azriel muttered, turning your head even more toward him so he could take a better look. "I have not", you muttered, biting the inside of your cheek instantly. "You have, love", he said softly, and you couldn't help but let out a shaky breath in return. "No", you muttered. "Y/N", Azriel said a lot more firmly, and you didn't skip a beat, matching his tone, "Azriel". Your eyes fell on him. Watching him. Every little, tiny detail. A little scar ran over the side of his face. Faded and barely visible, but...
You quickly closed your eyes. "Tell me this is real", you breathed out, pulling away so you could press your aching palms into your eyes, "Tell me that you won't change your mind". Azriel reached for you, carefully touching for your wrists but pulling them away from your face only when he felt your palms sagging in his hands.
"Who's feeding you these thoughts, hm?", Azriel said softly, moving your arms around his torso so you would hold onto him. "Who's tarnishing every little spark of hope you have?", he breathed out, reaching for you himself so you two could be wrapped up in one another. "You don't understand", you said quietly, an angry tear running down your cheek. Azriel quickly reached to brush it away. Taking a heartbeat to breathe before saying, "I don't; you're right, there's a lot I don't know", he admitted, "But I want to, and if me knowing and it can help", Azriel said, moving his palm to cup your cheek, "Then I'm asking you to tell me because I can't watch you pick yourself apart, my love. Not when I might find a way to help". You let out a choked-out sob, tightening your grip around him. "I don't deserve you", you breathed, "You don't deserve this mess". Azriel shook his head, "Someone up above mated us. We're one. I want us to be one".
You took a shaky breath. This was the moment that could make or break it. Unleashing the darkest parts of yourself. Walking through the cold, bloody night. What if he ran away afterwards? What if his love wouldn't hold? But the warmth within your chest. One that blossomed so deeply within you, urged you to let go of the burden that ate at your soul. "Then it's better if I show you", you breathed out, knowing that if you staggered even for a moment longer, you would find a handful of reasons why you shouldn't do it.
Azriel frowned slightly, "Show me?" A cold pain pierced him, one that never meant any good. "If I'm the one thinking of the place when we winnow, will I be able to sway your magic?", you asked, already feeling your skin go clammy. "I mean, I can open my mental shields for you", Azriel stuttered, trying to understand what was happening. You nodded, "Then I'd like to show you something". Your eyes met his worried gaze, and all you could offer was a sad smile as you clasped his way bigger palms.
You knocked gently on Azriel's mental shields, and he welcomed you in without hesitation. You felt the cold swirl building up around you until all you saw and felt was the feeling of Azriel's hands. The coldness didn't give up, even when the mist faded away. Replaced by an icy wind that rippled both of your clothes. Dread ripped deep within your skin. You closed your eyes quickly, trying to steady your breathing.
"What is this place?", Azriel's voice cut through the roaring wind. You blinked a couple of times. Letting the broken, burnt-down houses, rotten fences, fallen clotheslines, and sheds with fallen roofs fill your senses. Looking at this now, you would never imagine it looking any different. A year or two, and the last bits of wood would fall in full. Nothing would be left here. Nothing but one thing. You stepped forward. Walking towards the center of the camp. Towards the cube-shaped cage, wines sprouting all over the bars now. You turned back to Azriel, catching his lost eyes, muttering "This is home".

based off of this conversation with my beloved mootie @shellxrls 😚
“John b!” you breathe out, running up to him and jumping right into his arms, letting him support your entire weight as you wrap around him a distinctly koala-like fashion. it had become give or take wether your boyfriend would make it back to the shelter each day, and so the relief is always immense when you hear his familiar footsteps trudging your way.
you can feel his body actively relax the moment he comes into contact with you, “gotta stop lookin’ so relieved. told you I’ll always come back for you.” he speaks into the crook of your neck, beginning to walk back towards your camp.
“mmh.” you disregard the statement. “I made food… didn’t have any meat so we’ll have to make do with that old canned soup we found at the hide- hey what are y’doin?” you frown when you realise that as he walks with you in his arms, John b is slowly but surely undressing your bottom half.
“shhh… look sweetie—” he begins as he opens the door to the little wooden shack that you both make shelter in, “daddy’s had a real long day. right? need you t’help me out here ‘n be my good girl for just a little. think y’can do that?” he questions as he lowers you down onto the old mattress you’d managed to find a few weeks ago.
you nod as he begins to undo his belt, “yeah daddy, can be y’good girl,” it’s not difficult to fall into a more submissive headspace with the way he’s handling you.
he moves quickly, pulling your shirt off and running his calloused hands over your peaking nipples. he leans down to give you a long kiss, you get so lost in it that you’re taken by surprise when he pushes himself inside of you to the hilt.
“ohh!” you whine, arching your back, making him chuckle. “you like that?” he murmurs as he begins to move, the rough material of his shirt rubbing against your skin.
you whimper and writhe, at least until he gets frustrated enough to pin you down. that’s when he really gives it to you. he pulls his bandana out from his pocket and shoves it into your mouth, throwing your legs over his shoulders.
he ruts into you over and over again. you can’t remember how many times you’ve climaxed. your boyfriend shows no sign of stopping. you cry out the moment he pulls the bandana away “can’t any more John b! hurts!”
your boyfriend listens, at least you think he does. he pulls out of you and coos, bringing a hand up to stroke your hair “poor girl, this little pussy too sensitive f’me, that’s what you’re sayin’?” he raises one eyebrow and you nod. he lets out a little sigh before grabbing you by the hips and flipping you over “gonna have to put it in your ass instead then, aren’t I baby?”
and really, who are you to argue?

Valentine
Tumblr media
□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□
pairing: Clarisse La Rue x reader
summary: Clarisse blinked and suddenly she had you as a Valentine
content: clarisse being a love sick foul. thats it. thats the entire fic
a/n: recently started listening to Laufey and I have like TEN different fic ideas nowwwww ahhhhhh. this is really short but idk i kinda like it. idkkkkkkk. ahhhh. anyway, love yall.
□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□□
Clarisse has a problem.
It's not like a, "I just killed some Dionysus kid with my spear" type problem, but it's a problem nonetheless.
When she was a kid, the daughter of Ares hated affection. Even when her own mother would try and hug her, it just made her feel crowded and trapped. She'd avoid it at any costs, which is why now in her teenage years at camp half blood, she's never had a relationship.
That's usually been okay. She's always preferred glory or love. But right now, as she clings to you like a koala bear while you read your book in her bed, she finds herself questioning it.
This is the problem.
She’s never craved affection the way she does with you. When you hug her or wrap your arms around her waist from behind, she doesn’t feel trapped or crowded the way she does with everyone else. She feels safe and warm. 
Something is wrong with her.
It only dawned on her when she was sitting on the beach with you watching the sunset. The way the golden light looked on your face, it was shining off your already beautiful eyes, and you looked mythical as you turned to cast her a heart stopping smile.
Clarisse La Rue, scary daughter of the god of war, is in love with you.
She panicked, avoiding you for a whole week before she finally came to peace with her feelings. That doesn’t mean she told you, if some of you were expecting that. She loves what friendship you guys have, and she would never want to ruin it by doing something as stupid as telling you about her emotions.
It didn’t help that you were so affectionate though.
So after months of stopping cuddles with the excuse, “It’s getting warm.” or explaining her crimson face after time you congratulate her sword fighting wins with a kiss on the cheek as a reaction to the heat outside, she finally went to the one person she knew could help.
Silena Beauregard, daughter of Aphrodite and expert when it comes to crushes.
“Ask ‘em out.” Was what the girl said, casually brushing out her hair as Clarisse groans into her pillow.
“You don’t get it.” The daughter of Ares says with much annoyance, rolling over on her friend's bed as she holds a stuffed animal close to her chest. “I can’t. I try, but every time I build up the courage to say it, the words get stuck in my throat and I end up looking like a total idiot! I hate it!”
Silena chuckles, joining Clarisse on the bed as she shrugs. “Then die alone I guess. I really don’t know how to help you other than that.”
So….Silena was no help if you didn’t know.
Clarisse has just about given up at this point, instead deciding to just keep dying internally while still being friends with you.
She lasted with this just about four minutes.
“You look pretty.” You had casually said to her while putting on your golden helmet for capture the flag, folding up the sleeves on the flannel you’re wearing- one of hers- as Annabeth shouts out orders.
She’s caught off guard, almost dropping her spear and tripping over a rock. She swallows thickly before she says, “You…you look pretty too.” Silena eyes her with a teasing look from across the clearing, making kissy faces with a smug look. Clarisse doesn’t even know if she gave you a worthy compliment, stuttering out a quick goodbye before she makes her way into the forest to avoid anyone seeing her blush.
After that she manages to keep to herself for about an hour.
She’s running through the forest looking for you after hearing a scream that sounds way too similar to yours, ready to rip the head off of anyone who dared to mess with you. She finds you casually lounging on a rock near the beach, sword discarded on the sand as you talk joyfully with some younger campers. The sound of her erratic breathing alerts you, so you turn around, calming down when you notice it’s her.
“Hey Clar. What’s wro-” You don’t even get to finish before she’s picking you up in her arms, burying her head in the crook of her neck as she grips you as tight as she can without hurting you. You’re confused though you don’t question it, just running a hand through her curly hair as she shakes and slowly calms down.
It’s surprising really. Clarisse hates being affectionate in front of other people, scared of being seen as weak or too emotional. Though right now, she doesn’t seem to care as all the younger campers stare and giggle, just enjoying your embrace as forces down the fear she felt when she thought you were in trouble.
She realizes now that she can’t just keep this secret. She can’t go another minute without you knowing how much she loves you- that she would go to the ends of the earth or fight as many monsters as she needs to just to see your smile.
So for the first time in her life she skips capture the flag, joining the Apollo kids at the arts and crafts table and glaring at anyone who dares to question why she’s here and not out there fighting.
Silena joins her after a while, spending an hour making bracelets and teasing her friend while the daughter of Ares makes the cheesiest sign anyone has ever seen.
You’re lying in bed with a book when someone knocks on your cabin door. You frown in confusion, sure it’s one of your siblings and wondering why they don’t just open it. You call out for the person to come in, but when nothing happens and another knock comes through, you groan and get up to answer it.
The annoyance is immediately gone when you open it to see your best friend, though the confusion is still there as you take in her appearance.
The glittery, pink and red sign that is covered in hearts with the words, “I’ve been struck by cupids arrow. Will you be my Valentine?” is a harsh juxtaposition to the dark clothing on her body and shiny, sharp spear hooked to her back. It’s adorable, really. The way her face scrunches up as she slowly and slowly spirals deeper into the thought that this is the cringiest thing ever done in the history of the planet, the way she shifts from foot to foot as you stare in awe, the way she nervously smiles your way.
“If you hate it, it was Silena’s idea.” She mumbles when you don’t speak for a few seconds.
“And if I love it?” Your words surprise her, but she soon recovers and responds as a grin takes over her face, “Then it was all my idea.”
You nod, gently plucking the flower out of her hand then grabbing the sign so that her hands are free to hug you. She easily does, wrapping her arms securely around your waist as she pulls you as close as possible.
“I blinked and suddenly I had a valentine.” She whispers before leaving a chaste kiss on your forehead.
Clarisse has a problem.
But you are the perfect solution.

OH LAWD I WOULD DIE FOR SHENHE AND SARA
Could you do some headcannons about their S/O being overly sweet towards them? Imagine them getting Shenhe tons of gifts and hugging her like a Koala holding onto a tree. Or Sara’s S/O straight up pulling out their archery skills just to get her attention and try their hardest to break her “professional” behaviour just to see her blush. GAAAA JUST IMAGINING THEM SOUNDS SO CUTE!
(Genshin Impact) Shenhe and Sara's S/O being overly affectionate
THE GAP MOE IS REAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAL
Tumblr media
Shenhe had not received any kind of physical affection in a very long time.
It's not as if she did not have anyone caring for her, Cloud Retainer and the Traveler certainly did.
But the love S/O gave to her could not be compared to anything in her life.
At first, S/O wanted to gift her many things, but since she didn't really have a house, she had to decline many of their bigger gifts.
Instead, she kept smaller items like a necklace adorned with a beautiful light blue gem in the middle, resembling her vision.
And her body did not budge whenever S/O hugged her with full force, though that was due to her being extremely strong.
(Shenhe) "I wish to return your affection wholeheartedly, S/O, but I cannot."
S/O looked at Shenhe curiously, their smile still wide.
(S/O) "Why?"
(Shenhe) "I don't think your body could withstand it."
(S/O) "Oh come on, we can try!"
Shenhe then complied.
S/O was out of breath for nearly half an hour.
Regardless, it was something they did not regret.
Whether it was hugging, kissing, giving gifts, S/O loved to figuratively (And sometimes literally) smother her in any type of love.
Shenhe's face mostly remained unchanged, but her heart seemed to race everytime she felt them in her arms.
There were many times when they shared a bed, S/O would just hold onto her, arms and legs trapping her in place.
It felt strange, but Shenhe did not mind.
If S/O was safe and happy, then she was as well.
===
S/O and Shenhe had gotten a fair distance away from Liyue Harbor. Not too far in case if trouble followed them and civilization was too far, but they could be left alone in the confines of nature comfortably.
Something Shenhe appreciated. She could simply enjoy S/O all to herself. They were planning to camp out together, if only just for a little bit.
She felt their hands wrap around hers, eagerly standing closer as they moved closer to put their head on her chest.
Shenhe made no sound, but S/O could tell that she was at ease. The way her shoulders slumped, eyebrows raised, and the faintest dusting of pink rose to her cheeks.
(S/O) "I'm really happy I get to spend the next few days with you, Shenhe!"
(Shenhe) "I am as well. But-"
Shenhe slowly stepped back, making sure her hands were still holding S/O. She tilted her head and asked S/O with her tone of voice lightly hinted with concern.
Tumblr media
S/O took a moment to think about their answer while Shenhe continued.
(Shenhe) "The mountains can get quite cold at night as well."
(S/O) "That's what you're here for!"
S/O lovingly stood closer, and nuzzled their head onto her shoulders.
(S/O) "I'll be fine to sleep anywhere as long as you're with me, Shenhe. Besides, I packed a tent and everything we need!...Well, that I need."
Shenhe nodded and sat down, her hand still tightly gripping S/O as they sat with her on the grass. S/O began cuddling onto her, both of them silently watching the clouds above slowly drift away.
Her heart throbbed when she felt their hand wrap around her waist, though it was not out of pain as she quickly learned in the beginning of their relationship.
Tumblr media
In truth, Sara is quite easy to fluster, whether it be from teasing or affection.
Unfortunately for her, S/O provided much of both.
Sara did prefer to keep their relationship private for both the sake of her pride and for their personal safety, which S/O thankfully mostly complied with.
But whenever it was just the two of them, S/O would hold nothing back.
(S/O) "Sara!"
S/O almost tackled her in a hug, if she weren't prepared then they would have both fallen over.
But, it was something Sara secretly found endearing. S/O would not get to hear that however, lest they somehow get even more lovey-dovey.
(Sara) "It's nice to see you too, S/O."
She gave them a firm hug back before gently pushing them back.
(S/O) "I can make you some Onigiri, go ahead and sit down!"
Never once in her life did Sara think she would walk into such a loving home after days of work.
But Sara was happy to have S/O provide her the love she never knew she wanted.
===
Sara sighed as S/O happily held her hand to a nearby food stand.
The vendor in question seemed shocked at S/O holding the hands of the General of the Tenryou Commission so casually, while Sara had to avert meeting their gaze. of confusion.
(S/O) "One stick of dango, please!"
As the vendor nodded, the memories of how this even happened came rushing back to her head.
...
(S/O) "Sara, if I can hit this bullseye, you have to go on a date with me in the city!" Sara raised her eyebrow at S/O's sudden challenge. They had a bow and a single arrow in their hands, pointing a crudely made training dummy with layers of circles on its chest. (Sara) "Where is this coming from, S/O?" (S/O) "Kind of a mix of things, honestly. One: I just want to impress you. And two: I want to treat you to something nice, but you won't let me!" Sara chuckled, rather too confidently if S/O were to add. (Sara) "While I do appreciate the thought, you have no need to do so-." (S/O) "I have every need to do so if I get to see you blush and have that cute frown!" Well, they were already doing that. Rather effectively too. (Sara) "Alright, I accept your challenge." Sara crossed her arms as she stood behind S/O. Their arms were wobbling at the strength, but she could tell they were trying to mimic the way she drew her bow. (Sara) "Hm, I doubt they're going to-" Before she could even finish, S/O let the arrow go and she watched, much to her horror, the arrow pierce the center circle. (S/O) "HAHA! I DID IT!" They turned towards her, a star gleaming in their eye. (S/O) "Let's get some dango together!" (Sara) "I-In the city?" (S/O) "Where else, silly?" Sara opened her mouth to protest, but she did make a promise after all. That was on her for underestimating the lengths S/O would go to spoil her. And there was also that smile of theirs that made her mind haze...
...
Sara sighed as she walked away from the vendor, noting that people were beginning to stare.
Before moving to walk away from the open sight of the streets, she turned to S/O, scratching the side of her head in a nervous tick.
Tumblr media
(S/O) "I know I am!"
S/O punctuated with a big grin, before thankfully, leading Sara away from prying eyes.
