But I’m Better
Tumblr media
Kintober prompt: Toys
Relationship: dbf!Joel Miller x fem!Reader
Content: explicit sexual scenes, praise kink, guided masturbation, dom/sub (kinda) dynamic, size kink (kinda sorta). No outbreak AU, age gap (Joel is around his mid-40’s, reader is early/mid-20’s).
Summary: When something breaks, you always know who to call. Your dresser is broken, and you’re left hopeless. But what happens when Joel finds something peculiar in your drawer?
A/N: Y’all. I am so pissed right now because i wrote so much on my drive home, and it deleted because of a bad connection. i can’t recall everything i wrote, so i did the best with what i could remember. i hope it’s up to your liking!
Tumblr media
“Shit,” you grumble as you stare blankly at the clothes strewn across the floor. The knob of your dresser drawer sat stupidly in your hand, the mangled wood and metal mocking you. It looked completely ruined.
You thought about messaging your dad about the repairs, but chose against it. He was never exactly notorious for making these things simple - it would be a question of ‘So how did this happen?’ or ‘How did you manage to break it?’, and it really wasn’t worth the effort for you.
The knob sat in your hand, the screw that held it in the drawer was bent to the side, and incredibly dull. No surprise there, you thought.
To be fair, it was an old ass dresser, given to you by your grandmother when you were younger. It was weird to think that you’d had this dresser for over twelve years.
You bent over the pile of clothes and hoisted the hefty drawer in line with the empty space, grunting in frustration as you tried to shimmy it in. It was settled haphazardly and tilted backwards. Completely screwed up. You took your phone from your pocket and snapped a photo of your mangled dresser, sending it to Joel.
Dresser finally gave out, I guess. Knob fell clean off when I tried to open it
Almost immediately, Joel haha reacted to the image and began to type. He was unlike any other man you’d talked to before. Joel was timely and consistent, and he was always reliable. Even if he didn’t have the time to help, he would instruct you on how to solve an issue, but typically he helped you in person.
As much as you tried to deny it, your feeling for Joel had warped over the past few years. It began as a silly childhood crush - those early days where you and your friends joked about what older men were sexiest. Your friends had given you teasing looks when you mentioned Joel, and even more shocking was how long you’d liked him. It was a simple, harmless, childhood crush.
Until it wasn’t.
You were freshly eighteen and readying yourself for college when the realization hit you. After all those years having crushes on older guys, it would be considered okay. Weird and taboo, sure, but still allowed now that you were legally an adult.
Joel had come to your graduation dinner at the end of senior year. You remembered that night in vivid detail. More particularly, Joel’s presence set your skin ablaze with a new type of anxiety. At long last, you could freely crush on Joel, except that there was now a chance he could like you, too.
That night he’d passed you a small velvet box, tied neatly with gold ribbon. You opened the box to reveal a gold, oval-shaped locket with a simple clasp. Inscribed on the face of the locket were whorled spirals, breaking off as flowers scattered over the gilded surface. Gazing up at Joel, you couldn’t contain your joy as you gave him a quick hug. He briefly wrapped an arm around you, holding you close by the small of your back.
He broke away, smiling proudly at you below him.
“You did a great job, baby girl. You keep that up in college, and you’ll get by just fine.”
You were thankful dessert had arrived in time for you to turn your attention away, hiding your rouged cheeks. Joel probably didn’t remember that night, but you remembered every little thing.
You’d done your four years of college and after the endless nights with little to no sleep and hard work, you were finally graduated, and taking a gap year before considering anything further. You worked hard, and didn’t want to burn yourself out with more school immediately.
But now you were back home, and your sights were set on something else. It was a golden opportunity to spend time with Joel - time that you’d lost by being away for so long. Holiday visits and summer break was hardly generous enough to give you any alone time with Joel. You left for college as a timid girl, developed yourself as a whole, and came back a woman. A woman who knew herself and her wants.
And you wanted him, ached for him in a way you could neither define nor justify. He was almost twice your age, a wholly developed man with his own complex past and unsteady dating life.
Mr. Miller.
He had lived in the next neighborhood over for as long as you could remember. He and your dad met about ten years back at a ‘work thing’, as they described it.
Joel was kind and endlessly generous when it came to helping others. He was the first call when something broke, and the best person to have over when times were tough, despite his sometimes-rugged personality.
You’d gotten back in town over a week ago, and since then you’d seen Joel a few times, mostly to ‘inspect’ the furniture in your room - if anything had worn down over time and needed to be replaced, the whole nine. The both of you knew it was some bullshit excuse to see him at work, with those corded muscles flexing under his tanned skin, sending shivers down your spine.
That day, the two of you had enough bravery in you to flirt. It started out lightly, you gave more emphasis on Mr. Miller, until Joel requested you call him by his first name.
“Makin’ me feel like an old man, darlin’,” he teased. You remember how he sounded saying it, with a voice as thick and sweet as molasses.
Before he’d left he’d held you by the waist, staring a little too closely at your face, watching your eyes grow wide when he leaned toward you. He fixed your hair with a gentle hand, said your name, and trailed off, his eyes never leaving your lips.
He refused to kiss you that time. Though the time after that you’d decided to break the boundary, drinking him in like someone dying of thirst. You memorized his scent, the softness of his skin and rough, eager hands across your chest, between your thighs, your throat. You both had been greedy that night. It was a high that coursed through your senses. You needed him, more than you led on.
I’ll get my toolbox, looks like it could be some old hardware. Be over in 10.
You picked up around your room in the meantime, your heart fluttering in your ribcage with each passing second. The room had become stiflingly hot. Suffocating.
A knock at your bedroom door startled you out of your anxious stupor. You reached for the door and now faced a smug Joel Miller in the doorway.
“I could’ve met you at the front door, you know,” you chastised him playfully. Joel shifted his weight of his feet, pulling something from his pocket.
“Helps that I have a house key. Means I can help you even faster.”
You rolled your eyes at him and turned on your heels without a word, striding toward your broken dresser. Joel followed casually, craning his head to look around your room, at the decorations that covered the walls and ceiling. This was no longer the bedroom of a the kid he’d met all those years ago. No, you were fully your own woman now.
“Yup, the screw’s shot to shit,” he muttered, holding out the drawer’s knob to you. “See the end of it? Shouldn’t be that dull - gotta have it replaced every now and then.”
“Do you have the right screw for it?”
He nodded, popping open his toolbox and assessing the different screws in each compartment. His hands flexed with each movement, the veins branching across them shifted with every twitch and roll of his thick fingers. Your legs clenched while the most intrusive thoughts filled your head. Specifically those hands, and what you could imagine them doing to you.
Procuring the right screw, Joel handed it to you. You looked at him in innocent confusion.
God, those eyes. If he had the chance, Joel would look into them all day, to let himself get swallowed whole by their beauty. And when you looked at him all pretty like that, as if you had no idea what you were doing to him, it drove him wild. You knew exactly what you were doing when you’d flirt with Joel, but couldn’t gauge his reciprocation, or if he was even okay with the weird ‘relationship’ you had.
It had been confusing for long enough. Someone needed to make a move, and Joel wasn’t sure if you had it in you to do it. Neither were you.
“I wanna see you try it for yourself,” he explained.
“If it’s so easy, why can’t you do it?” you quipped with a smile, but still taking the knob in your hands. Joel gave no reply and waited patiently for you to back down and do it yourself.
It was far easier than you thought. You handed it back to Joel with a proud smile. His eyes thoughtfully scanned your face before finding home in your eyes.
“Smart girl. I knew you could do it.”
Heat rushed across your cheeks like a harsh sunburn, completely taken over by the brightness in his honeyed tone and brown eyes. Joel laughed at your reaction before he worked on the drawer knob, fiddling it into place. His hands rummaged through your drawer as he worked, and paid no mind to the clothes, though you just realized. This was your underwear drawer - full of lacy underwear, bras of all varieties, and one final item you prayed you hid well enough.
Joel’s hands pushed through your panties as you held your breath. After the drawer had fallen out you’d lazily threwn everything back in the drawer and paid no mind to its organization. Since it wasn’t on the bed or the floor, by accident, you were certain that Joel would cross paths with a toy of yours.
He struck something solid amidst the clothes. The material was solid and heavy, with a bit of give from the silicone. At that moment, he could’ve left it ignored, but there was no fun in that, he thought. Joel gripped the dildo at the base, pulling out of the tangle of clothes and handed it to you, flashing you with a smirk.
“You should find a better place for this,” he drawled. “Never know who could find it.”
You quickly grabbed it from him and scanned your room for another hiding spot, but nothing came to mind. Instead you plopped it back in the drawer, on the opposite side.
“Most people don’t get to go through my underwear, so you can’t give me shit for that,” you grumbled. Joel stood, groaning at the strain on his joints. You giggle at the noise, and gave him your usual teasing, “Old man.”
Ignoring your jab, Joel leaned against the chest of drawers, arms crossed over his chest in a stare down.
His voice was dark. It had become devious, knowing, and more stern than you’d imagined.
“You use it on yourself?”
You choked on your spit harshly, not expecting his question to be so direct. Joel placed a wide hand between your shoulder blades and gave you a pat, coaxing you back to normal.
“Joel,” you pant, catching your breath, “you can’t just- just ask me that.”
“And you wouldn’t be curious if the roles were reversed, I’m sure,” he said coolly.
The redness had returned to your cheeks while you debated on your answer, but your hesitation told Joel everything he needed to know. In the smallest way, you’d let it slip that you imagine him in your free time, not that it wasn’t the same case for him. If anything, it’d been worse. Every text you’d sent him set him ablaze; at night he thought about you in detail and palmed himself through his pants, or pumped his cock in a fervent hand as he thought of you, squeezing himself inside your tight pussy. Countless nights he’d stained himself with his own seed, wishing it was inside of you instead, where it belongs. That toy should be him, it always should’ve been.
“Do you?”
You huffed and turned away from him, striding toward the bed to adjust your pillows - any sort of casual distraction from the question.
“Why do you want to know?” you countered.
Joel’s hands brushed against your hips from behind, his feather-soft fingertips brushing across the skin above your jeans. You drew in a breath as Joel whispered next to your ear.
“Because I’m a selfish old bastard, and I’m wondering what it looks like.”
“What what looks like?” you ask softly. You knew precisely what he meant but you wanted to hear something from him anyway.
He burrowed his head at the crook of your neck, gently kissing your skin up to the soft spot below your ear. His breath flew over your skin hot and heavy, sending a new wave of heat to your core.
“I want to see your face when you’re all filled up. I gotta see what your little pussy looks like when it’s all stretched out.”
You pushed your hips back flush with his to find a growing bulge trapped in his jeans. Joel rolled his hips into your ass, groaning at the constraint of the rough denim.
“Joel,” you breathed.
He mumbled against your neck, “What is it baby girl?”
Shoving your ass against his crotch, you whined, “I need you. Please… need you so badly.”
His hum rumbled against your skin, sending goosebumps rolling across your arms. A hand wound up to your hair and tugged a good handful back toward him. You gazed up at him with those beautiful glossed over eyes he dreamed about. He pictured this look on your face for a few years now, and he finally had the joy of seeing it, of causing it himself.
“Not givin’ it to you yet, baby,” he tugged once more on your hair when you whined in protest, “Gonna try something different first.”
In one movement you were facing him, finding two dark eyes staring you down, pupils both blown in lust. Joel gripped the back of your head carefully now, cradling you like something precious, something coveted. This was exactly how he saw you. You were someone to protect and take care of, and now it’s shifted to something far more intimate. Joel vowed to himself that he would make you feel every ounce of pleasure you’d been missing out on. All those nights where his hand replaced your pussy built up a frustration only you could truly fix.
Joel crashed his mouth to yours, as he’d done twice before this, and the kiss sent the same heat through your body. You clenched your thighs in a pitiful attempt to gain pressure against your swollen clit, nestled sweetly between your soft folds, soaking your underwear with your slick.
He pressed you backward until your knees hit the edge of the bed. The kiss was no short of pure ecstasy. The way his stubble scratched against your cheeks, the way his breathing grew heavy when you bit at his lower lip, the way his tongue edged into your mouth to explore every inch.
You gasped when Joel pulled away, watching him step to your dresser and draw out the dildo you’d hidden back inside. He turned to you with the toy in hand, wobbling slightly in his grip.
“‘S a pretty big one, sweetheart, you actually use all of it?” his voice was far too casual for a man holding your dildo.
You offer him half a nod, “Kind of. I’ve been trying to get… all the way in.” Joel assessed your words before he joined you on the bed, holding the toy against your stomach, at the base of your pelvis. He let out a low whistle when he saw where the toy’s length ended at your tummy, past your bellybutton.
“All of that inside you… felt pretty daring getting one so big, huh?”
That wasn’t the case and it was the most embarrassing part. The truth is, you chose the size based on your image of Joel. You didn’t even know how endowed he was, but you let your fantasy of him take over. That, and the time your hand brushed against his erection during your last kiss.
“I wanted to see if it would feel like you,” you admitted.
Joel’s eyes crinkled with his laugh, “Darlin’, a toy don’t compare to the real thing. Not really.”
You jabbed his arm at his teasing, “Listen, I’m doing the best with what I got, okay?”
“Yeah, but it’s not the best you could get, now is it?” he purred, pushing forward to plant a kiss on your neck. You shook your head, knowing he was exactly right. The toy would never really feel like the real thing.
You glanced up at him with a nervous expression, furrowing your brows, “What did you want to do?”
Joel looked at you coolly and leaned back onto his elbows. He eyed you, then the toy in his hand, then back to you.
“You gonna make it fit - take it all the way - and I’m gonna help.”
Crimson shaded your cheeks at the thought, staring nervously at the toy. Surely you were wet enough to take it, but the action of pushing further, to get it in completely, had been a challenge. In hopes to boost your bravery, you hunched over him, kissing him harshly as your hands flew to your pants. You fumbled with the waistband and slid them off of you, until you were stark naked, laid and bare before Mr. Miller.
He simply drank you in as you sat nervously in the lamplight. Joel eyed you darkly, his eyes raking from your quivering thighs, your slightly hidden sex - masked by your censoring hands, to your perk nipples atop each soft breast, and to your face, eyes half-lidded in pleasure adjoined with your soft panting.
“Jesus.”
You ducked your head sheepishly, shaking slightly to decline the compliment. Joel looked you over fondly as his hand found your cheek, brushing a thumb over your cheekbone. You glanced down at him, still giving you that goofy smirk and a excited glint in his eye.
Joel kept eye contact as his hand traveled down your body - through the valley between your breasts, down your tummy, to just above your slit, daringly close to dipping between your wet folds. You pushed yourself into your knees and knelt at his side, your aching cunt exposed to him in the dimly lit room.
He trailed his hand up each thigh, halting just before he reached your pussy. Each touch was carefully light in a way that made your whole body shudder against him. A single finger slithered up your thigh once again, finally finding its way through your slit, nestling comfortably against your clit and drawing lazy circles.
You cried out against a hand held at your mouth. Joel’s hand smelled of metal and bourbon, mixed with pine and lemongrass. He smelled smoky and fresh and completely warm against your face. You bestowed your face into his palm as he gained a rhythm on your clit, drawing out the smallest cries against his skin.
“Nice and wet for me already, darlin’, that’s good… that’s such a good girl. Drippin’ and ready.”
Another dumb nod has him chuckling while his finger skirted lightly across your clit, teasing the bundle of nerves until your stomach grew tighter.
“Gonna cum, baby? You gonna cum for me already?” His comment draws another moan from you, falling like a melody past your bitten lips, a chorus straight from heaven, just for Joel.
“It’s okay, baby doll, go ‘head. Cum for daddy,” he said sweetly, the Southern drawl thick through his words.
You unravel around him, jolting your hips as your orgasm takes over your senses. A soft cry sounds through your gritted teeth; you gently grind your hips onto the pad of his finger to ride through the shockwaves. Joel leans up to kiss your shoulder, his lips warm and supple.
“Just as beautiful as I imagined,” whispered Joel. His tongue skirts along your skin to your neck, fully sitting beside you to bore his eyes into yours.
You glanced back at him with lust-blow pupils, steadying your breath as his hand slowed its tempo. Joel gave you a lazy smile, the lamplight catching the salt-and-pepper hairs of his scruff in a soft display of his rugged features.
“Can,” you started, “you be… inside me?”
Joel’s hands found your hips and gripped snugly. The look in his eyes was nothing short of affectionate. Even still, he shook his head.
“Not tonight darlin’,” he replies, “I want you to show me how you look using this-“ he points to the dildo on his opposite side, waiting. “Since you think a toy could be so much better than me-“
“That’s not it at all,” you protest, “I needed something, Joel.”
He holds up a hand to stop you mid-sentence, “You could’ve asked me, but ya didn’t, did ya?”
You gave him a scowl, “I didn’t think this would happen, Joel.”
Ever since you hit eighteen, he wanted you to practice calling him by his first name purely out of comfortability, and since you’d grown up, it seemed more fitting.
He doesn’t reply, but his smirk grows when he brings the dildo over to you, sitting between your thighs. It was embarrassing enough with how little of the toy you could handle this far, and to do it in front of Joel seemed doubly humiliating.
Joel gives your ass a small smack to lift you up. You rise, letting him set the toy between your thighs and beneath your throbbing entrance. He cleared his throat, daring your attention back to him.
“Go at your own pace, but get it all in, sweet girl.”
All thought had left you - your only reply being in an eager nod. You started off slowly, notching the toy in at your tight hole, and slowly bounced yourself along its length. Your legs shook with each movement as you filled yourself more and more, every gyration sent shockwaves of pleasure through every inch of your being.
It took a few moments to ease yourself fully, now bouncing on the dildo’s length until it became glossy with your slick. Joel eyed you affectionately. Your face twisted in ways he couldn’t imagine, and your cunt wrapped around the toy in ways he could only dream of.
Joel patted your thigh as you bottomed out at the hilt of the toy. He pawed at your hips, kneading at the tender flesh of your ass, and pulled you into a grinding motion, setting the dildo ever deeper into your cunt. It struck a new spot deep inside of you, pushing against your cervix. A low moan fell from you as you moved your hips absentmindedly, solely following Joel’s command.
The tightness in your stomach only grew as his praises flowed through your head.
“Such an obedient lil’ thing.”
“That’s a dirty girl, gettin’ all needy like that. Wishin’ it was me in your sweet pussy, don’t you?”
“You have no idea how badly I want to fill you right now, baby doll.”
You mewled softly as another orgasm crashed through you, your hips sputtering as you ground onto the toy. Joel’s hands caressed you through your high, though he didn’t stop tugging your hips. He beamed lazily when you cried his name once again, shuddering around the toy nestled inside of you.
“Attagirl,” whispered Joel, “so fuckin’ beautiful..”
You shook your head at him like before, but he showed no signs of backing down from his stance. Joel peppered your thighs with kisses and he lifted you off the toy, listening to your whines as you were left feeling empty. His cock twitched in his jeans, eager to play.
But not yet. He needed to see this first.
“How was that, sweet girl?”
A beat of silence said every unspoken thing you’d come up with. It was good, but not mind-boggling. Not the ‘fucked til you’re dumb’ pleasure you’d expected from tonight.
Joel patted your ass, “That’s the thing. Toys… they feel nice. But-“ He plants a kiss to your cheek, then your lips, grazing over the swollen skin.
“I’m better.”
The next few minutes consisted of cleaning after yourself and settling back into your clothes. Joel fixed your hair neatly before looking you over.
“Cant stay long tonight, darlin’, gotta get back home.”
You sighed dramatically at him, to which he scoffed away the gesture. On his way out, he gave you a far more longing look - a loving, thoughtful gaze that told you one thing.
You were his. Completely and wholly. It was clear he saw you differently now, as you did him.
Joel fucking Miller.

I am not implying that said idol(s) behave anywhere near what is mentioned in this ff. Inspo from 
Song rec: ‘Back To Me’ by The Rose
Tumblr media
You can still remember those sweet moments with Seungmin. You ran along the seashore as he snapped pictures with his camera you gifted him on his birthday. He took you on a short trip to the park and took pictures of you with your hair blowing in the wind. The both of you laid beside each other, getting lost in the other’s eyes.
But you can’t remember when it all started. What caused that sudden change in your relationship? Was it you? Was it him? You would never know…
You didn’t sense it. It all kind of just… happened. Slowly, Seungmin started to grow distant from you. You wish you knew why. I mean, you could’ve just asked him what’s wrong right? Well, the answer is no. How do you ask someone who’s never home and doesn’t reply to your texts? On days he would actually come home, he wouldn’t talk to you. When he did, all he would do was lash out at you for things that weren’t even your fault.
You tried to support him, you really did. You always kept your calm and told yourself it was just because of his stress stemming from work. But it wasn’t long before it broke you down. Nipping at even your smallest insecurities. So on one of the days when he came home, you just said it all to him.
As soon as you heard the door open, so did your mouth. “Come eat dinner. It’s gonna get co- I’m not hungry”, he cut you off. You got up from your seat at the table and forced him to sit down. He sighed heavily. “What do you want, Y/n. You're driving me crazy. I have enough shit from work and now you're being so demanding.” You scoff. You don’t know where it came from but a fire set ablaze in your eyes and all you felt was irritation.
I can make you mad, I can make you scream
“I’m the one driving you crazy!? I’ve just been looking after you and trying to help you through this stress. But suddenly I’m the problem? You know what? I’m tired of this. You can’t just blame me for shit I didn’t even know of. I’m trying to be a good girlfriend and for what? For you just to come home and berate me when you feel like it?” You were breathing heavily by now and the anger consumed you. “Well, you’re not the one working are you? You’re not the one earning money. You’re not the one putting food on the table. You’re not th- But I’m the one trying to make this relationship survive!!!”, you cut him off because you couldn't bear to hear those words come from his mouth. He knew how much they hurt you. 
Your dad said the exact same words before leaving you on your own with your sick and dying mother. When your mother died, it left you in shambles. You were barely 12 then and so your aunt adopted you. And she treated you like her own. She was the only family you had left until you met Seungmin. But now it feels like she was and still is the only family you have left.
Seungmin huffed before taking a bite of food. But, he immediately spit back out along with his venomous words. “What the fuck is this!? It’s salty as hell! And you wonder why I’m not eating this shit.” Before you could even process his words, you heard the front door shut. You were all alone now. Again.
I can make you cry
After taking a shower you had no strength to do anything else. It wasn’t exactly a physical problem. You were just mentally and emotionally exhausted. You laid down in bed and curled yourself in a tight ball, with the blankets covering you. You felt vulnerable and weak. Like you couldn’t do anything to save your once perfect relationship with Seungmin. Suddenly your face began to feel wet. You were crying. But now, you were beyond the point of just crying. You were sobbing uncontrollably. 
Did he fall out of love with you? Or was he just playing you all along? Did he find someone already and he was waiting for a perfect chance to break up? Why did he change? Was it because of you? Or was this his true self and you were too blinded by love to realize it? What happened to that sweet smile that was always hidden behind the camera? What happened to his velvety laughs that would echo through the night? What went wrong..?
You ended up crying yourself to sleep but when you woke up, you found that you had a cold. It must’ve been from the crying last night. You felt your head pounding from all sides. You quickly went to the kitchen and took some painkillers. If Seungmin was here right now, he would be the one taking care of you. Does he even want to be here?
“No. Stop thinking about him, Y/n. He’s the reason you’re like this.”, you thought out loud. You hated the thought of even contacting him in the state you were in, but you needed someone there while you were sick.
Calling all day but I never pick up, instead of pulling my weight always pushin’ my luck
So you called him.
No answer.
Called him again…
No answer.
The cycle went on a couple more times before you sent a voice message. 
“Hey, Baby. I’m sorry for what happened last night. I didn’t mean to yell at you like that and I understand that you’re also busy and stressed. But can you please come home? I just really need you here right now.”
It has now been several days and your fever isn't getting any better. You spend most of your time in bed but force yourself to take medicine and find something to eat. Left with no choice, you called your friend.
Yuna came over in no time, making sure that you weren’t hurt. But she could clearly see how much you were burning up and the immediate help you needed. She nursed you over the weekend until you were okay. When she asked about Seungmin and found out what happened, she tried her best to convince you to leave him. She always knew that he would do no good for you. But you wouldn’t listen. You refused to. It was only a fight between the two of you. He'd come back to you. Right?
You gave me all that I could take, yeah I take it all for granted. Head up in the clouds, yeah I'll never understand it
Seungmin didn't even return until a full three months later. When he arrived, he wouldn't even look at you. Even though he laid beside you to sleep at night, there was nothing but a wall between you two. It was suffocating you. But it clearly wasn't having the same effect on Seungmin. He would giggle in the middle of the night at some tiktoks he was watching, not minding that he'd wake you up.
It was all so frustrating but you just couldn't find it in you to leave him. Well... that's what you thought at first.
Love no longer remained and if there was any, it was fully one-sided. You were sick of this. The constant mental torture was doing you no good and it slowly killed you. It didn't feel as if you were even a couple. You felt like a caretaker. That's not what you bargained for when you started this relationship.
You tried everything in the books to get him to open up to you. Only to learn, that he was just getting tired of you. You no longer interested him. Or so he said,
"Meh. I've just been bored and trying to find a better entertainment source."
You were so fed up with his, if not irritated, nonchalant attitude. When would he realize that he was hurting you. This internal rage was constantly being built up and you just couldn't handle it anymore.
So you opted for the only choice left. To leave him.
I can make you leave. I can make you hate me for everything.
You packed your clothes and belongings into every box and suitcase you could afford and sent it off to your aunt's. You had already told her of the plan and she agreed. Now all that was left was for him to return home. Time ticked by and the anticipation was killing you. Your knee bounced furiously. You were chewing on your thumb nail until you heard the click of the front door. An exhausted Seungmin stepped through.
"Hey, Seungie. Can we talk?"
He groaned as he walked past you. "Let's talk tomorrow. I'm too tired."
"No. We need to talk like now. It's really important. Please?"
Seungmin rolled his eyes before walking back over to you. "What's so important that you're disturbing my rest?"
You nervously fiddled with your hands. It was more nerve-wracking than you thought. You mustered up the last of your courage you had left and looked him in the eye.
"Let's break up."
"What?"
"Let's go our own seperate ways and break up."
"Okay." He waved you off as he headed to the bedroom to sleep.
Shocked wasn't exactly how you'd describe yourself. To be honest, you kind of expected this. They way he brushed things off so easily wasn't new to you. So you didn't even cry. You just grabbed what you had left and made your way to your aunt's house.
As soon as she embraced you, that's when you let your tears fall. It hurt all too much. Everything that Seungmin had been doing to you for the past two years were spilled out in the hour long conversation shared between you and your aunt. Your hatred only continued to grow for Seungmin and soon, all that was left was hatred for him.
Seungmin didn't even notice that you never came to bed. In fact, everything you previously said flew over his head from his exhaustion. It wasn't until he had awoken that he realized you were nowhere in sight. At first he assumed that you may have went to cook breakfast or collect grocceries. But then he remembered what happened last night. He covered his mouth and his eyes began to water.
He began remembering the horrible things he's been saying to you. He didn't mean any of it. Most of the time it wasn't even directed towards you. It was just pure exhaustion. He only tried to come off as happy so he wouldn't upset you. But that only seemed to make it worse.
What he chose to do though, was give you time. He knew he wasn't the exact person you wanted to talk to at the moment. He shook his head at himself. You'd be back in a week hopefully. That's what he thought up until he felt like the house was a little too empty. SO he checked every nook and cranny. None of your belongings remained. No toothbrush, no clothes, no books, no devices, no personal items. Not even your scent lingered.
God, what had he done?
Calling all day, trynna make things right
Seungmin quickly grabbed his phone and called you. His fingers ran through his hair as the call never made it through time and time again. Now he was extremely worried. What if something happened to you?
So he called your closest friend, Yuna. She picked up rather quickly.
"The hell do you want, assface?" She said almost immediately.
Seungmin swallowed hard before asking her, "Do you know where y/n is? I haven't been able to reach her. Do you know if she's okay?"
"Shouldn't you be able to know the whereabouts of your own girlfriend?"
"Look I really don't know and I'm worried. Something went on last night and she's not home. Now my calls aren't getting through and I don't know what to think."
"Well to me, it looks like she finally took my advice. Have a horrible day, bitch." And with that, Yuna hung up.
"FUCK!!" Seungmin cursed loudly as he flung his phone across the room. Had you really left him? Was he that horrible of a person? He chuckled. Who was he kidding? Of course he was that horrible. The amount of pain he must've inflicted on you. His heart clenched.
He began crying as that was all there was to do left.
It's been a couple of months and both of you were trying to move on. Was it easy? No. At least you both tried though. But fate seemed to have other plans.
Just to fuck it all up when I see you tonight. Since you told me hit the road, I've been runnin' on empty, If anything I know it's how to ruin a happy ending
It was a Friday night and Seungmin chose to spend it at a local bar. Guess that bar must've been a little too local. Because there you were, standing just 20 feet away from him. Seungmin could feel his heartbeat accelerate. He so desperately wanted to run and hug you. It felt like hell without you.
You were no longer there to remind him that he was loved. You were no longer there wishing him good nights and good mornings. You were no longer there to cook him his everyday meals. You were no longer there to give him a goodbye kiss.
But you were here, with another man. Seungmin knew he had no right but he couldn’t help but feel jealous. You told him that you’d always be his so why was it different now? Truth was, he knew the answer. Anger and jealousy blinded him though.
He stomped the whole way over there and yanked you by the wrist. “Who’s this!?” He asked angrily. “What the fuck, Seungmin! Why the hell are you here!?” Seungmin didn’t even hear you as he suddenly flung his fist into the dude’s face.
You grabbed Seungmin by the collar and pulled him towards you, landing a hard smack on his face. “Stop, you fucking asshole.”
He immediately snapped out of it. Seungmin looked at you apologetically but it was already too late. He could see it in your eyes. The disgust, hat and annoyance. How could he do that to you?
”Wait, y/n…”
And he couldn’t even salvage it. So he left. That’s all he could do. He knew you wouldn’t take him back. When he thought about it, he wouldn’t take himself back either. So he began drinking. Drinking all the pain away.
But I can’t make you come back to me
He’d lost you completely and there was nothing he could do. He wanted to scream at you that you couldn’t leave him. But he knew he was in the wrong. On your wedding day he watched as you posted the photos. You and some other dude instead of you and him.
He couldn’t find the strength in him to go to the actual event. He’d lose control if he did. He wanted to tell you,
“I’m sorry.”
But what good would that do. If he truly wanted you to be happy, he’d leave you alone, and that’s what he did. He watched you from afar. He still cried from time to time. He was happy for you. But he had to admit,
“But, I still wan’t you.” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ a.n: this has been on pause for 3 months now😭 and idk if ya caught on to the 2nd song at the end but yeah. Anyways, hope ya enjoyed bc this has been a long awaited fix. Sry to anyone who was waiting. Have a great day/night!!! Love y’all!!🫶💕💗

My Kismet AU headcanons !
Ablaze
Ablaze is the strongest and oldest of the band and behaves like a proud older brother towards his bandmates (not like JD back then) He's 39.
He is half Rock and half Pop Troll, which makes him a Rock-Pop Troll among his friends.
Ablaze is a calm and chill man, which makes him like a typical dad who allows absolutely everything! During the performance, he gains energy from the music and behaves teasingly during the choreographer.
He's just a cool and loyal Troll.
He has and can play electric guitar.
He literally sleeps in any place (Even standing, with a smile on his face ;])
He understands his close friends perfectly by their condition.
He likes to tease the hair of friends he meets on the way or when he stands next to them (especially Trickee and Hype come across this)
Ablaze really likes to hear about the activities of his friends, memorizing the smallest details. He has a very good memory.
If something goes wrong, or there is some tension in the band, Ablaze takes over and tries to restore harmony and stability in the band (he succeeds)
Hype
Hype is the leader of the band and the spirit of the company. He's 29.
He successfully works out compromises if there are any conflicts between his bandmates.
Hype is a truly caring Troll who speaks and does, motivating his band with infectious enthusiasm.
He wants his friends to feel not only recognized, but also supported, not just heard, but understood.
He coordinates meetings with the band and schedules concerts.
He has his own mug with the inscription "#1 Leader" which Boom gave him.
He often hangs out with Boom, and gave him the nickname "RainBro"
Hype has a habit of straightening his hair forward. That's why his hair is bent forward.
He clearly has silly and funny things that look funny in a good way.
Hype and Ablaze are responsible for the idea and lyrics of the song.
Boom
Boom is the designer and is responsible for the costumes for the performance. He's 28.
He's gay (canon) And he wasn't afraid to open up to his friends about it.
Boom is relaxed and cordial and sensitive to the feelings of others and appreciates harmony.
Boom easily reacts to the emotions of others, helping them establish harmony. He is even able to perceive the emotions of others just by listening to their voices.
He likes to spend time with his friends doing casual, fun things.
Boom will always find the right compliment to soften the heart that is ready to call his risky behavior irresponsibility or recklessness.
It's easy to make him laugh. He often laughs at Trickee's jokes.
He pricks up his ears in the direction where someone is talking to get into the conversation.
He is afraid to make mistakes when he creates costume designs.
He loves cocoa, exactly the kind that Ablaze makes.
Trickee
Trickee is the youngest of the band and a funny Troll. He's 26, just like Branch.
Nothing tires him out faster than talking about dry facts or harsh reality.
Trickee is responsible for the choreography, which he does very well.
He has shorter hair than his bandmates.
Trickee removes his glasses and pulls down his hair only when he is asleep or in order to walk freely.
He often does something risky, which forces his band to agree to protect him from the incident.
Trickee being the youngest, always hangs out with Ablaze, feeling protected and a little like a kid with an older Troll.
He loves almost everything Ablaze cooks! Its easy to convince Trickee to something (it is possible especially for Hype)
He has several copies of his glasses, as he broke his glasses not infrequently, even accidentally.
He has a habit of suddenly hugging friends from behind and sniffing their nice hair (this is normal for them x])

Pool (July microfic)
written for @steddiemicrofic for the month of July. Prompt: Pool.
wc: 442 | rating: G | warnings: cursing (?), mentioned sunburn blistering
(sidenote: I just would like to make clear that this is an AU in which Steve and Nancy have broken up before the summer of 1984. There is no cheating involved whatsoever)
Steve generally likes working at Hawkins Public Pool.
It’s loud, sure, and the pay isn’t great but the vigorous atmosphere of the Hawkins population of various ages is enough to make it worth it in his eyes. Plus, it beats listening to his dad reminding him again and again how important this year is going to be.
As if Steve cares about something as trivial as collage applications and Senior Year in high school when he’s been face to face with a monster from a hellish dimension.
So the pool it is. Screaming children, bored adults, the sun beating down – telltale marks for the summer of 1984. It’s comforting, in a way.
Steve’s making his usual round around the pool when he sees him. It.
It’s flaming red, skin ablaze. Steve can physically feel the pain. He wonders what can be so engaging for the person not to notice their back is practically on fire.
“-and I’m telling you, Gare-bear, this plot point doesn’t make sense.“
“Excuse me. Hey, hi,” Steve restrains himself from patting one of the shoulders connected to the wall of blisters. It’s the face of Eddie Munson that greets him on the other side, much to both of their surprise.
“My, my, Steeeve Harrington. To what do we owe the pleasure?” Munson makes a little fanning gesture, batting his eyelashes, and Steve would be annoyed if that didn’t stir something in his gut. Whatever it may be, it can wait. Probably.
“Your back is on fire, dude.”
Eddie’s friends, all three of them, burst out laughing when Eddie tries to turn around and look over his shoulder. Red splotches bloom on his face and Steve wonders if the guy is maybe having a heat stroke.
“Shit. Well, whatever. What is it to you?”
Steve rolls his eyes. “I’m a lifeguard? Just put on some sunscreen, dude.”
“Forgot to bring one,” Eddie shrugs, looking genuinely apologetic. And concerned. With a sigh, Steve makes his way back to the employee’s booth. He hesitates – for a split moment this whole thing seems like a terrible idea - but grabs one of the lotion bottles laying around. 
“Aww, Stevie, you didn’t have to worry yourself about little ol’ me,” Eddie coos once Steve is back, having regained some of his usual bravado. “Are you going to put it on, too?”
It’s a challenge, he can tell. He knows Eddie expects him to back down, be grossed out. Well, Steve Harrington is not one to back down from a challenge. And if he gets to flirt back with a cute guy, that’s really just a bonus. He winks.
“Turn around, Munson.”

(Ghost King Vlad AU, Dad Vlad AU)
-Prompt-
Vlad was sething with rage. They dared to toy with one of the only people that he considers important in this world. They dared to play with the life of the one person that he considers a son in all but blood
The arrogance of these things, it clings to them like flesh to a human.
At his feet laid three broken and bloodied old ladies, around him, still burning in ectoplasmic fire are the ruins of mount olympus.
"How dare you..." The venom in his voice could have killed a hydra. "HOW DARE YOU TOY WITH HIM!" The mountain shook, the few remaining buildings collapsed. "You tried to break him, to destroy his mind like some sort of sadistic writers." The ice in his voice manifested physically as frost over the ground.
"To try and ruin the one person who's life I value more then all the souls in all the worlds," A sigh escaped his lips "For that, I will inflict upon you pain unimaginable weavers of fate" He spat out the last part as if it were the foulest of poisons.
"I have ripped out the heart of a god and shattered his soul to get where I am... To save him"
"I will enjoy stripping your souls from your bodies," Vlad towered over them, hands alight in iridescent plasma, crown ablaze above his head. "And when I'm done with you, all the demons in all the hells will whimper in fear at the very thoughtof your FATE."

Summary: A mix of AU/Canon. Rat defends Juices daughter when Abel makes some statements hat have her questioning her parents relationship and how she came into existence. *Sneak peek into a future story*
As always 18+
General Tag List: @keyweegirlie @hatersaremymotivators
Sons Tag List: @youngadult9016
Rat flew into the Teller-Morrow lot spraying gravel as he slammed his bike to a stop. Flinging his helmet to the ground he stormed inside looking for Abel. Rosalie's sobs echoing in his head as his eyes scanned the darkened interior of the clubhouse. This shit with the younger Teller was getting old. He could take the disrespect but when it came to Juices daughter or wife he would not have it.
"Hey Rat" greeted Abel before he was slammed into the wall. "The fuck did you say to Rosalie?" snarled Rat his eyes ablaze with anger. He could hear Chibs call his name but he paid no mind before clocking Abel in his jaw. Letting the younger man slump to the floor he knelt down and grabbed him by his hair turning his face up to his.
"Never speak about Juice, Rosalie or Trinity again. Or you may just end up spread along the highway like your daddy was last week" he growled only low enough for Abel to hear.
"What the hell is happening?" demanded Chibs as he got in between the two followed by Tig. "Well?" he demanded after a few minutes of heavy silence.
Rat chuckled darkly as he shook his head. He shouldn't be surprised that Abel would be coward like his dad. "Man enough to tell a kid she was the product of rape, her dad abused her mom and that you would make her a club whore soon enough but not man enough to tell your President what you said."
"That true?" growled Chibs as he looked from Rat to Abel. Abel simply looked away before nodding.
"I just repeated what my dad told me. He said it was a shame you all let her live a lie thinking Juice was a good man.
"He wasn't a good man. He was great" snapped Rat his anger swelling again.
"You better get a plan in place. The minute Trinity finds out not even the Devil himself will be able to save him" stated Rat before making his way back to the clubhouse door and leaving.

Oh man I've been listening to Hayloft by Mother Mother and it's loosely making me think of a Steddie Old West au where Steve is the son of a wealthy landowner who lives in this big house surrounded by lots of land his dad owns. And Eddie is a poor boy who lives in a tiny house on the outskirts of a local township who becomes an outlaw only because he got accused of a murder he didn't commit.
Dustin doesn't believe Eddie did it, and is determined to find him and help clear his name. He ropes Steve and Robin into helping him and Max - obviously.
Eddie ends up hiding in the hayloft above Steve's barn somehow (I can't decide whether he goes there because Steve told him to hide there, or he just picked a random barn). And Steve brings him food, and blankets, and goes up there to talk to him over the days while they try to figure out who really killed Chrissy and blamed Eddie.
They fall for each other, hard. One day, when the sun is setting, Steve goes up to the loft with some food to share and a bottle of fancy whiskey they pass back and forth. Lit only be the flickering of a lantern, Steve can't help but notice how long Eddie's eyelashes are, how soft his lips look, and how badly he wants to kiss him. So he does. And Eddie kisses him back. And they end up pressed together in the hayloft, legs tangled together and lips on lips.
And the next day Steve's parents come home. And his father absolutely cannot find Eddie or they'll both be dead. He's anxious and scared and can't go up to the barn to warn Eddie without making it suspicious.
And then I haven't quite figured out what happens after this (whether it goes the heavy angst route kr not) but I'm so tempted to try and write it?
OhhhhshitohshiojSHIT!!!!! IM LISTENING!!!! TO EVERY SINGLE THING YOU SAY!!!!
First off, fucking electric song that I completely forgot about so thank you!
SECOND!!!! This whole premise I’m absolutely losing my MIND!!!! PLEASE IF YOU WRITE IT SEND ME THAT LINK!!!! You’ve thought of EVERYTHING!!!! I honestly can’t get over this oh my god
I have a thought! So Steve went out to the barn with a lantern right? So what if it accidentally gets knocked over when Steve is leaving the barn and obviously fire in a hayloft is not a great scenario so his parents come home and the place is ablaze. His parents are shouting blue murder at Steve, calling him incompetent and careless as he just bolts into the barn because Eddie is in there! Eddie the man who makes Steve feel important and listened to and loved. Eddie who’d sell his soul to save his friends and is treated like the scum of the earth for it. Eddie. The man Steve loves.
Neither of them come out. The barn burns down and as much as the harrington’s look upset anyone close to Steve knows they are more annoyed that their property is damaged than their son being dead even though the body is never found.
Steve and Eddie escaped out of the back door, thinking this could be a new life for them. On the road. They’d have to leave their friends and their current lives, never settling in one place, but maybe they could make it work? They deliberate in their only safe place, Dustin’s basement, when Nancy wheeler (the towns woman in the know) barrels in with news they’ve all been waiting for.
Henry creel, a traveling snake oil salesman has been touring and is due to stop by Hawkins he’s been all around the area and this is his last stop. Somehow it gets uncovered that he’s been murdering people as a way to drum up business for his potions and promises. Steve and Eddie don’t have to leave town, end up being heroes because they (along with Nancy of course) round up Henry and effectively save everyone. They finally get to lead their life together and Steve’s parents move away because the town shame them for being uncaring bastards 😌

Okay since all 10 of you asked for it, here's the long overdue explanation of the "AU where Terzo is placed in Omega and Alpha's care" ( aka the "dudes who aren't dad AU", but that sounds too cheap).
First of all, in this AU, Terzo is AFAB. I will refer to him as "she/her" for the parts before he transitioned. Except for this paragraph.
This is so much longer than I originally anticipated it to be. I'm fucking sorry.
Nihil had never had a daughter until then, so he didn't know how to take care of her. Accompanied with the fact that he and Primo were much too busy with clergical duties and they already had Secondo, who was already unruly enough himself. It would be too much of a hassle to take care of Teresa, so he got his two most reliable ghouls to handle her.
Alpha complained at first. After all, he had torn apart legions of soldiers and sent towns ablaze, and Papa Nihil wants him to care for a child? The irony was almost staggering. Omega would be much better suited for this task, but no, Papa needed someone to keep the girl in line and somehow just Omega wasn't enough for him.
Omega on the other hand, accepted his duties quickly. He is a quintessence ghoul after all, it's in his nature to care for others. He'd often tell Alpha off for being too harsh on Teresa. "Don't be so hard on the kid," he'd chastise. Alpha scoffed. He's just doing his job. Omega can be as gentle and nurturing as he wanted, but he couldn't expect him to do the same.
So imagine his surprise when Teresa kept approaching him. Whenever the young child would present him with a cool rock she found in the garden, or with her favorite storybook, asking him in her high-pitched voice: "Can you read to me?"
It confused him. He shooed her away the first couple of times, but Teresa kept coming back and coming back, until Alpha finally folded and let her sit on his lap as he read her favorite bed time story.
It surprised everyone, especially Omega. He taunted Alpha about it for days on end. Alpha brushed it off with angry retorts, but it wasn't like Omega was wrong. He did end up warming up to the girl.
Both of the ghouls ended up becoming his psuedo parents. When Terzo became Papa, he pulled a few strings to let Alpha and Omega keep playing in the band. Despite their bones already feeling the weight of age, they didn't mind. They wanted to make up for the lost time whenever they toured with his brothers, and besides; it helped them keep an eye on him. To keep him safe.
When Terzo was dragged away, the two ghouls were immediately at his side. They tried to console him, but every attempt was met with a bitter retort. It broke their heart. To them, Terzo was still the little kid that would walk hand-in-hand through the ministry's gardens.
Terzo only became more distant when the new Cardinal got promoted to the new head of the Ghost project. He became so distant to the point where they barely saw him.
The last time they saw him was behind glass. The two infernal beings crumpled to their knees, clawing at the glass and screeching unholy sounds of pain. They failed.
Shortly after that, they were both sent back to the Pit. A wave of what they thought to be relief washed over their body. They gladly accepted their banishment, thinking the pain wouldn't follow them back to the eternal abyss.
Oh, how wrong they were.

[coven au]
Sana woke abruptly as the door to her chambers flew open. Panic cleared the sleep from her eyes immediately; she reached for Mina and pulled the girl towards her, towards the side of the bed furthest from the door –
“It’s me, it’s only me!” Momo’s voice was rushed, breathless. She’d run here. Sana heard the chamber door close and two locks deploy.
“What’s going on?” Mina’s voice was raspy with sleep. “Why do you sound so scared?”
“We have to run. Royal soldiers are here. They took your brother-”
“What!? Why!?” Mina stood from the bed.
Momo shook her head. “We have to go. Please, please pack a few things. My father will send men after us with more supplies to get us through a few weeks until this is sorted-.” She said, beginning to rifle through Sana’s wardrobe and toss thing in a bag. “We’ll stay at my uncle’s hunting cottage until this is over.”
“Momo, slow down! What’s going on!?” Sana couldn’t keep the fear from her voice.
“I’m not going anywhere without my brother.” Mina added, though hers wavered too.
“Mina.” Momo’s voice sounded pained. “They arrested him for possessing magic.”
“What? Possessing? The King – He knows my family has always had magic, Kai’s never used it, my dad is friends-”
“The King is dead.”
Sana’s mouth fell open.
“He was assassinated last night. The Prince commands the royal army. He –” Momo’s voice was thick with emotion as she paused. “They pulled Kai from our bed and arrested him.”
“The law is no magic can be practiced. He might have magic, but he’s never used it. Just like you two. He’s innocent.” Through the dim moonlight, Sana and Momo met eyes. Mina continued. “I’m sure my father is working to clear his name as we speak.”
“The new king sees anyone with the ability to use magic as a threat. I don’t think your father can clear this overnight, Mina.”
“Kai is not a threat!”
“Kai is an example!” Momo’s voice boomed as she finally lost her patience. Sana caught a familiar shine in her eyes as Momo grabbed Mina by the shoulders, making her look up. “Kai is an example. No one is safe, anyone with magical abilities – no matter how powerful, no matter if they’re buddies with the royal family and in line to be governor of the most powerful province in the stupid kingdom – is going to be hunted down and prosecuted. Okay?”
Mina didn’t say a word. Sana didn’t breathe.
“And I just – I have to get you two out of here. Before they come for all three of us, I need to get you two to safety while our parents work this out. So please, please get out of bed and pack your things.”
The door handle rattled. The three of them froze. Momo’s hand went to her belt, and Sana shuddered as she realized Kai’s sword shone from under her robes.
A sudden force bent the door, but it held strong. A ram. Whoever waited outside the door knew they’d need to take it by force.
A few seconds of stillness. Then, they jumped into action.
Momo began to push furniture against the doors. Sana pulled Mina to her, out of bed, to the window. She dug in the chest underneath it, pulling out the rescue ladder her father always insisted she knew the location of. Looped it around the cast iron chock hidden by the chest. Sana had always thought he was paranoid.
Whoever was on the other side of the door had come back with friends, and now even the furniture creaked under the force of them hitting it.
“GO!” Momo rushed towards them, and Sana climbed out quickly, urging Mina to follow. As she joined them on the window ledge, Sana watched Momo unleash an inferno, setting her room ablaze. Mina gasped. She’d never seen Momo use her power before.
CRACK!
Sana jumped, shaken from the memory by the sharp sound of an axe against wood. She heard a snicker.
“In your own little world there?” Momo smirked, drawing back to strike the stump again.
“Not anymore.” Sana mumbled. She watched Momo set up another piece of wood and step back. Her best friend was truly a sight; here Sana was, bundled to extremes in furs and cloaks while Momo wore nothing but simple pants and a sleeveless tunic. Her muscles stretched under her skin as she brought the axe up. The snow was beginning to come down harder, melting as it landed on her but clinging to Sana’s robes.
“What were you thinking about?”
“When you burnt all of my possessions to the ground.”
Momo tilted her head and split another log. “Was that the same night I saved your ass from certain death?”
“Hm, guess it was. Aren’t you cold?”
“Not in the slightest.” The axe came down again.
“Well, I’m cold.”
“Go in the tent.”
“I’m keeping you company.”
Momo only rolled her eyes and continued her work. Sana stood, opting to help out by passing Momo the whole pieces of wood for her to split. They didn’t say a word for a few minutes – until Momo’s stomach growled loud enough for Sana to hear while she was passing off a log.
“Wow.”
“It’s nothing.”
“Is there anything left to eat?”
A small pause. Another crack of the axe.
“No. I can go back out after the storm. Visibility’s only getting worse.”
Sana nodded. She would go scavenge later, though she knew not to expect much. They hadn’t had full stomachs since the first frost. They weren’t going to starve yet, but she didn’t know how much longer they could scrape by like this. While Momo made sure the cold itself wasn’t an immediate problem, the scarcity of food still seemed likely to kill them, eventually. She couldn’t bear it.
“This cold is worse than anything we’ve had before this.” Sana started the conversation for what felt like the fiftieth time. “We’re really getting into winter, now.”
Momo nodded slowly, focusing on her work. She knew what Sana would say next.
“We should reconsider moving on. Somewhere warmer, where food is easier to find.”
“If we leave the province, they’ll have a harder time finding us once they get this sorted. My father told us to stay within the borders.” The answer was almost practiced at this point. Momo took the next log from her hands.
“He also told you he’d have it worked out before the snowy season. It’s been silence from home for months now.”
There was no rebuttal to that, only a deep breath. The next log was split with intent, the two halves tumbling off the stump and far out of reach. She was ignoring the issue, shutting the conversation down once again.
“Momo.” Sana said, more sternly. “I don’t think anyone’s coming for us anymore. And – I know, that’s hard to admit. But I… I think we need to look out for ourselves now. It’s been almost a year since we left home, months since we left the hunting cottage… No one’s coming. We need to give ourselves the best chance at survival.”
“Our best chance of survival is here. As close to home as we can safely be.”
“Maybe at one point it was, but now – it’s time, we can’t stay and freeze. Food is getting impossible to find. The only news we’ve heard about the province capital… it isn’t looking good.”
“We have connections, immunity here. Leaving that would be stupid.” She said with a glare. Sana sneered.
“And what did those connections do when they took Mina’s brother to the gallows? Your betrothed, Momo.” She tensed, and Sana felt bad invoking him into the argument. But Momo needed to see that they wouldn’t be safe here. “He was killed because he was the governor’s son. You’re the one that told me that. There’s no use in staying here. There’s danger in it.”
“What about our families, Sana? Our home?” Fire burned in her eyes, almost literally. “You don’t want to be close to them? Ready to go back when this clears up?”
Sana’s heart hurt. “As long as the king sits on the throne, as long as this witch hunt is taking place… It isn’t going to clear up. You know that. We’re not going home. We have to admit that to ourselves.”
Momo didn’t answer, but the air filled with the faint smell of burning wood; she dropped the axe, the handle now scorched where she’d been gripping it with white knuckles. Her hands balled into fists at her sides.
The last time she’d seen Momo accidentally burn anything out of anger they’d been kids. But it was a difficult truth and she had been pushing it. She inched forward, until she was an arm’s length away. “Momo.”
The girl only shook her head, wiping away angry tears that Sana hadn’t noticed and then pressing her palms into her forehead with force.
“Hey.” Sana kept her voice soft. She gingerly put a hand on Momo’s back – she was warmer than usual to the touch. “Deep breaths. I’m... I’m sorry I brought Kai up. It’s been stressful lately and I pushed the issue.”
“But you’re right.” Momo’s voice cracked. “I don’t want to go further from home, but we’re dying, here. We’ve been starving for weeks. And now we have another mouth to feed. We don’t have enough food for us as it is. I… I should have left her in the forest.”
“You did the right thing, helping her.”
“I know I did. I shouldn’t have, but I did. I couldn’t leave her. She couldn’t have been older than Mina, and I just…”
“I would have done the same.” She ran her hand up and down her back. “You did the right thing.”
“I don’t want to leave.”
“I know you don’t. I don’t.”
“Leaving feels like admitting it’ll never go back to how it was.” Momo whispered, in such a defeated voice that Sana wished she could tell her she was wrong. She stayed quiet. “I don’t want to accept that we’ll never go home.”
“I know, Momo. But it’s going to be okay.”
“How can you be sure?”
Sana took a deep breath. She wiped some of the melted snow dripping down Momo’s face, and held her cheek.
“I can’t.” She rubbed her thumb over her cheekbone. “But as long as we have each other, we’ll be okay. Just like it’s always been. The dream team.”
“A third of the dream team is dead.” Momo whispered, tears finally spilling.
“And we have his baby sister. We swore to him we’d protect her, remember?”
“We were seven. We were protecting her from monsters under the bed, not... Not this. And she doesn’t want to leave, either.”
“We’ve always protected her, Momo. The last time she a suitor proposed to her, you lit his room on fire. We haven’t broken our promise yet. And I never intend to. ” Sana dusted off some snow. “So it’s time for us to move somewhere safer.”
Momo sighed. “I know... We’ll… We’ll talk to her. And the new kid. When they both wake up.”
Sana offered her a gentle smile. Momo only bit down on her bottom lip, turning back to the wood block and picking up her axe.

Attack on Titan + Favorite Cocktails
Part 1: Scouts
so I want to make actual cocktails that I feel like represent these characters but it's gonna take some time to craft. so for now here's the regular drinks I think they'd really like + links to the recipes if you want to try them for yourself!
I tried not to include rum in any of the scouts recipes because i don't think that's something they would logically have access to. Connie's recipe includes rum but it can be substituted with vodka quite easily, so i thought it was worth including.
Tumblr media
Eren + Feuerzangenbowle
- a mulled wine, but with a sugar cone that u set on fire !!!
- this is one of Connie's favs too but they never let him make it because they don't want him anywhere near an open flame
- eren likes the mulled wine by itself too, when the scouts are in hiding he makes it as a treat on cold nights
- makes it as more of a social event as opposed to just wanting to drink. loves to gather everybody around him while he sets the sugar cones ablaze one by one
- his mulling experience makes him the best punch maker of the scouts too. In a modern!au he's always tasked with making the punch for parties and get togethers. he puts his hair in a little lunch lady style hairnet and gets roasted to shit by Jean.
Tumblr media
Mikasa + Kirsch Royale
- red like her scarf 😱😱😱
- very very cherry flavored mixed with champagne
- like mikasa; beautiful, will knock u on ur ass
- historia introduced her to it at her coronation party. everyone's popping cheap champagne and historia Demands that they bring out the good stuff for her friends
- just likes vodka-soaked cherries in general; anything that's spent time submerged in alcohol is her finger food of choice
- if Jean/Mikasa endgame they bond over their love of cherry liqueur idk idk ((also kirsch?? kirschstein?? the flirting opportunities baby))
Tumblr media
Armin + Aperol Spritz
- lightweight alert!!!!!
- usually a really light alcohol content, pregame type of drink. just a white wine and some sparkling water really
- armin has two of these when he first drinks and gets absolutely blasted. Someone (probably jean) snuck it from erwins office the night before shiganshina 2 electric boogaloo
- armin drinks it on special occasions. But he also likes to bring a pitcher of it down whenever he talks to Annie
- in the modern day he LOVES Pina coladas, but in universe he has no clue what a pineapple or a coconut is so
- when he goes to marley he also discovers blue caraçao and puts that shit in everything ("it makes whatever you drink look like the ocean!!!")
Tumblr media
Jean + French Connection
- called "The Connection" because France doesn't exist
- just cognac with amaretto liqueur
- his dad drinks it; that's it that's the reason
- he thinks it's cool and masc because it's served in a brandy glass and only has two simple ingredients; wants to be seen as an adult and a man's man or w/e
- has a convo post-rumbling talking about how he "wished all alcohol wasn't so bitter tasting". man has had only cognac and a hint of amaretto his whole life. Annie buys him a sweet moscato wine ("her one good deed for the week") and his head explodes
Tumblr media
Sasha + Rumplesnuggler
- literally creamy alcoholic hot chocolate (peppermint schnapps and Irish cream being the alcoholic part)
- sweet sweet sweet sweet sweet
- her dad made it for her one christmas and ever since then she's been hooked
- every time she drinks it it takes her back to the cold woods of her youth, of her loving family, and of her moms delicious cooking
- gabi and falco try the non-alcoholic version of this and love it too. instant sugar high
- she also really likes anything with vodka because it's made with potatoes lol
Tumblr media
Connie + Green Demon
- midori and lemon juice!!! Toxic waste in a bottle!!
- azumabito brings a bottle of midori as a gesture of goodwill (likely called something else at this point) and Connie just 👀👀 "it's green. Like GREEN green"
- he's putting it in everything, like it's food coloring. Green water, green green tea, green coffee. Menace to society
- he lets niccolo try it and he ponders the taste for a second. "Let me try something". Squeezes a WHOLE LEMON into the glass (he's a chef not a bartender). Tastes it, immediately regrets it. Sooo sour. He's about to throw it out but lets connie try his concoction of the damned first
- Love At First Sip. man never tried that marleyan wine because it's just midori and lemons from here on out
- when he gets married they toast this instead of champagne. heck he might just get married to the bottle
- Connie Springer Midori Melon Man
Tumblr media
Levi + Dry Martini
- my first thought was a U-Boot which is just beer with vodka poured in it. this man weighs 100 pounds soaking wet and 50 of those pounds have to be liquor before he feels anything
- instead it's gin and vermouth which is. Not much better tbh
- levi likes to be in control of what he drinks but also what he looks like while he's drinking it. No unsophisticated beer kegs or basic wine glasses. It's martini glass or bust. No martini glass? He'll just drink water.
- same with the olives or lemon peel. No garnish? No drink. he's a little picky
- definitely has a favorite bar that makes it Just Right. probably a bar he went to with Erwin when they were starry-eyed scouts
- in the modern day he also makes a hell of a mixer. Kenny 100% taught him how to make a killer trash can punch
?????????????????????????
Hange + ???
- do NOT engage hange in talks about alcohol do NOT pass go do NOT collect 200 dollars
- their fav drink does not have a name. it is a long island iced tea but made of GARBAGE
- the ingredients change every time but it is invariably disgusting
- attempts at mixing include: pickle juice, barbecue sauce, mayonnaise, seawater, bone marrow, olive oil
- every once in a while a combo will come together that shouldn't work but absolutely does. do not trust this miracle to happen twice
@lemmetreatya @nuri148 @uwubraun u guys said u were interested so!! here it is!! i did it. my opus. im gonna do the warriors next and i already have Ideas

Okay, so sometimes on my commute a song will come on and spark an au in my brain so here's a new one inspired by Blown Away by Carrie Underwood:
Heathertail is the Kin and is the villain of AVOS.
This takes some setup plus there's two options so bear with me:
Option A) Heathertail is the sole founder of the Kin
Option B) Heathertail joins Darktail and they try to destroy Windclan.
Backstory is basically that Onestar is an asshole, Whitetail is dead, Breezepelt in this AU is either exiled or still bitter at the clan as a whole, and then Darktail shows up. In option A Darktail doesn't hate his dad or at least understands his reasoning and just wants to join Windclan and get to know his Kin. In option B he just shows up an announces he's Smoke and Onestar's son, and leaves the clan in shock as he trots off to the Kin.
Heathertail, still heavily mourning her mother, sees this betrayal of Whitetail. She feels alone in the clan, abandoned by her father and ashamed of her family, so she leaves. Whether Darktail already has the Kin or she forms the Kin with cats nearby also scorned by the clans(former dark forest trainees like Breezepelt, cats who had dalliances with Clan cats and were abandoned, kits abandoned by their clanborn parent like Darktail, etc.) The Kin becomes a force determined to lay waste to Windclan for their betrayal.
In the song the focus hides in a cellar from a tornado, in this au a pregnant Heathertail hides in the tunnels from some disaster she wrought on Windclan, either battle or lighting the moor ablaze.

@wolfstarmicrofic Day Twenty-Three: accident
This is part 3 of the firefighter AU. Part 1 (Wildfire). Part 2 (Inhale).
c/w: mentions of car accident, past death of parent, general firefighter peril and emotions.
18+ nsfw
There's no off-season, no summer vacation, no federal or religious holidays. There are a lot of missed events, fun opportunities gone untaken, and fucked-up sleep schedules. Remus can't remember the last time he actually watched a movie in theaters or ate a meal at a restaurant that wasn't within walking distance of the station. Dry springs and drier summers are spent jumping out of planes into burning landscapes, and the rest of his year is...this.
He can feel the bite of the sleet even through his gear. The burning heat of the up-ended oil tanker set ablaze does little to warm him, but even if it did, the accident scene they've walked into is enough to chill his blood: an oil tanker on fire a few meters off, the cab crushed like a coke can. The ground beneath his boots is slick: black ice.
His team is already on the trailer of the tanker, dousing it with foam from three angles. Remus descends on the cab and steels his heart against the chaos he knows he'll see inside. He needs to focus on the mission and put his emotions aside. Emotions cause mistakes, and mistakes cause burns, injury, and death.
So he shuts his sympathies down as they wrench open the crumpled door. The driver is breathing (good) and conscious (poor fucker), but he has a face full of glass and his leg definitely shouldn't be bent that way. "Sir, can you hear me? I'm Lieutenant Lupin. I'm here to help."
The man's screams follow him home.
He tried to ignore Lily's pointed look once they'd loaded the driver into the ambulance, but she's somehow gotten craftier over the years. She's not allowed within explosion range of the tanker (James's rules, not hers, though Remus thinks she'd probably change her stance on that now that her jacket can't close over the swell of her belly) but she cuts Remus off at the scarlet Number 10 engine. She dismisses his protests that he's fine (because he is!) and sends him home. There is no arguing with Captain Potter.
At home, he's alone with his thoughts. Sirius will be back...some time, hopefully before the sun rises. They both moonlight as paramedics, because of course they do. They have to constantly keep moving. If they stop, they might have to deal with all the shit getting thrown at them. If they stop, they might never start again. Remus lights their fireplace (funny how he can't stay away from that, either) pours himself a measure of whiskey, and curls up on their sofa.
Sirius wakes him with a gentle touch, all that's needed after years responding to a hair-trigger alert. "You're the worst fireman ever," he teases, gesturing to the still-lit fireplace. "Leaving a hearth unattended. Wow, Remus."
He smells like the hospital, like antiseptic and the lurid green cleaner they use on the floors. His mouth, when Remus kisses him, tastes like stale hospital coffee and cigarettes, and his hair is a bit lank under his fingers and his blue shirt sweat-damp. Need overtakes Remus, pushing aside the shadowy feelings lurking just below his skin, and he quickly fiddles with the zip and buttons of Sirius's uniform shirt.
Sirius pulls back as Remus's wandering hands grow more urgent, a questioning look in his eyes. "Bad call?" he asks, though he must already know. "Saw that guy..." Sirius stills Remus's hands and pulls him upright to sit next to him. "Even looked a little like your dad, huh?" His words are soft, smoke-husky, but gentle as he presses Remus to his chest.
Remus's throat is tight. "Yeah..." His father was a long-haul trucker, and not as lucky as the one today when his tires met sudden ice over a bridge. Accidents like this are always hard on him. It's been seven years, but things like that don't just go away. Remus clears his throat and stands, tugging Sirius up with him. "C'mon."
The shower is a sanctuary. There is no fire here, just steam. No murky memories or painful thoughts, just the slick slide of their bodies together as the water sluices through their skin. It washes grey soot and sweat alike down the drain until the water runs clear. Sirius shampoos Remus's hair with careful, luxurious care, working out the knots in his neck and shoulders with deft fingers, and Remus thinks (not for the first time), that if he could live in their shower, he would.
When Remus returns the favor, Sirius decides to drop to his knees and take Remus in his mouth. When Remus's nails scrape across his scalp, lathering the soap into his long, black hair, Sirius moans and takes him deeper, deeper, deeper, down into the soft, wet heat of his throat. There's no rush to it, though, no urgency to reach a hasty end, and Sirius stands to let Remus rinse his hair.
They fall into each other on the bed, sheets freshened by their maid (the one "frivilous" thing Remus agreed to after they both made Lieutenant) and smelling of lavender. Five years ago, Sirius would have begged him to talk about it, to open up, to crack apart his protective walls and spill all of his squirmy, sobbing guts out onto the mattress before they did anything. But Sirius knows him now, knows that Remus will speak when he's ready. They don't need words, not for this.
His hips whinge in protest when Sirius pushes his legs back, but Sirius's first bottomed-out thrust into his body is worth the discomfort. They don't often have time for actual sex, but their schedules and the stars do occasionally line up. Sirius fucks into him slowly, measured movements focused entirely on Remus's pleasure without racing towards orgasm. With each push forward, it's 'I love you 'and every pull out 'you are enough.' The kisses that dot his neck, stubble-rough, are 'you are a good son,' and the hands that catch his wrists and hold them above his head are 'you are a good man.'
By the end, Remus is crying, even as his orgasm is finally wrung from his body by Sirius's tongue filling the space his spent cock left. It's cathartic, a release of the emotions he's had to lock up, of the agonizing heartbreak he feels because it is too much for one person, it is, but if they don't do it...if they're not the ones running into burning buildings, parachuting into burning forests, racing toward burning cars... who will? No one wants their job. The pay is shit. The benefits are shit (well, there is a pension so that's pretty nice). The hours are fucking shit.
But the looks on their faces, like the man he resuced today...that look of hope that dawns like the day, that spurs them to hang on to their breath, to hang on to life...is enough.

With the human au you got I imagine the makara & vantas dynamics to be along the lines of.
GHB/Signless: one-sided crush that GHB never healthily delt with further pushing away SL. Years later realized what he felt/wanted but it’s far too late.
Kurloz/Kankri: like dad there is some infatuation but he is passively acting on it. Like little baby steps in a kiddie pool. (GHB watches and wonders if things would go better for his son than him)
Gamzee/Karkat: DIVES INTO THAT SHIT ASS OUT GUNS A ABLAZING!!!! the poor vantas child has no idea what’s waiting for him once that inevitable Kurloz inviting his older cousin over for some hang time resulting in the worlds most AWKWARD reunion between GHB & Signless.Like a puppy starved of love pouncing on a new toy in a new happy loving forever home. That’s best friend right there. I shall hug him and carry him up and down the stairs and we shall be together forever.
Meanwhile GHB & Signless are just awkwardly staring at each other as their kids with better relationships interact. No talking just occasional uncomfortable eye contact. GHB tries to maybe scoot closer but SL moves away a bit every time.

Luna Maximoff; matchmaker extraordinaire.
A/N: yeah so I'm a quicktaser stan and wanted to do a Little Something! I firmly believe Luna deserves more love and wanted to include her so!! A parent trappy au where Luna attempts to set up her dad with her teacher! No powers au bc that's fun too uwu! I might post this elsewhere but we'll see! I wrote this in the one and on mobile, so if there's any major errors lmk!! I also had struggles doing italics on mobile, anyone else had that problem? It just highlights the whole para after I've done one word in italics and even when changing everything else BACK it just reverts back to italics?? Idk fellas
Anyway!!! Pls enjoy this self indulgent fic of Luna trying to set up Pietro and Darcy!! It's not finished and I'll prolly do a part 2 for this!
Luna Maximoff is seven years old and an expert in love, thank you very much.
She's watched basically all the Disney movies, how can't she be after that? Plus Anastasia, which is one of her absolute favourite movies of all time. Which is why, of course, she totally believes that her dad is giving Miss Lewis goo goo eyes.
Her mother and father had split up two years ago now. It had been a tumultuous marriage, doomed to fail from the very start. Her parents had loved each other, once. Before the arguing started, and then her dad leaving every other night to sleep at auntie Wanda's, and then her mother no longer wearing her wedding ring.
Custody was 50/50, with Luna spending two weeks with her mother, and then two with her father. It had been rocky, at first, with her mother demanding more time with Luna, despite the fact that she was an incredibly politician who more often than not left Luna with either a nanny or her uncle. She didn't mind too much, she still loved her mother despite the busy schedule... and her new boyfriend, the real estate agent.
He wasn't bad. Just incredibly boring. She was incredibly confused about just what her mother saw in him.
Her father, on the other hand, hasn't dated much at all. Not to her expert knowledge, of course. Her auntie Wanda, upon being grilled by a seven year old girl, just told her that her father was happy being single and focusing his attention on his job and his daughter.
Luna thought that was stupid, to be honest. Because her dad was great and deserved to be happy!
Which brings her to Miss Lewis. Her totally rad and pretty teacher, who gave them movie days every other week to "decompress" and relax, and who drew the best smiley faces on papers and tests, and who was always willing to listen and help her students as best as she can.
She used to have a boyfriend, maybe, Luna remembers her wearing a ring on her left hand like her mom and dad used to. But, as of three months ago, it had disappeared. Strange!
So, naturally, this totally means her dad should ask her out. Obviously. It's a win win! They'd both be super happy, and Luna would maybe get more of those baked goods Miss Lewis brought in for movie days.
Everybody wins!

Mr Maximoff was, in all honesty, the most painfully handsome man Darcy Lewis had ever clapped eyes upon.
Totally unprofessional thought, but who fucking cares, not like the staff didn't gossip about parents. Namely how smokin' divorcee single dad Maximoff was.
Occasionally, his sister would appear to pick up little Luna, and the woman was also drop dead gorgeous in a way that had Darcy questioning her sexuality for about an hour after pick up. What the hell was up with their gene pool? Who just IS that attractive?
But, this is Darcy Lewis. She keeps her cool, keeps professional.
Until, that is, it comes crumbling down.
His mouth is hot on hers, his hands even hotter. Pietro Maximoff is a fucking furnace and she feels as though he's setting her ablaze.
She can't bring herself to care.
It had started in a bar. Her, out celebrating her BFF Jane's engagement to totally hot Scandi Thor. Him, stood up on some date.
Laughable, really. How the hell do you stand up-
A soft moan escapes her as Pietro tugs on her hair to tilt her head back, moving his kisses down from her lips to her neck.
"Do you think we should be doing this?" she asks, clutching onto his shoulders- good god they're broad- and meeting his eyes with her own wide ones. "Objectively, it's probably not very smart of me to sleep with one of my students parents-"
"Probably not," he agrees, humming against her throat. "But we're both mature adults, are we not? I think we can keep this between ourselves-"
At her silence, he pulls back, eyes searching her face. God, they're so blue.
His hands leave her waist. "Unless you don't want-?"
At that, she pulls him closer, nudging her nose against his. "Oh, I want," she assures him, nodding her head. "That's not up for debate, far from it, I'll be kicking myself in the teeth if I don't-"
"I think I get the picture, no need for teeth kicking," he says, mirth shining in his eyes as he returns his hands to her waist, thumbs rubbing gentle circles against her skin.
Sweet jesus.
"So?" He prompts, giving her a lopsided smile.
"Yeah," she nods, giving his lips a peck. "Yeah, we're doing this, oh my god-" she breathes, squeaking at the nip to her neck. "You're such a tease." she pouts, being met with a cheeky grin as she pulls him by the shirt and walks backwards to her bedroom.
"You like that I am, no?"
"It keeps a lady on her toes, has to be said." Darcy snorts, sitting on the bed once she feels the back of her knees hit it.
Pietro grins down at her, brushing his fingers along her jaw. "Good," he drops to his knees, reaching out to help her shimmy out of her skirt. "I hate to be predictable." He informs her, hooking his thumbs underneath her underwear and sliding them down her legs, promptly tossing them to some corner of her bedroom.
"I think it goes against your nature," Darcy says, breathless, as he's currently kissing his way up her thighs.
He looks up at her from between her legs, a smirk curling on his lips. "Quite."

Something is strange.
Luna squints at Miss Lewis, who seems to be avoiding looking at her in particular as she finishes up the lesson for the day. Something something about multiplication.
She's more curious about whatever is going on with her teacher.
Luna is excellent at reading people, always has been. A peculiar little talent of hers that often times came in handy.
The bell rings, and slowly, she starts packing away her things, as Miss Lewis informs them of homework and tells them to have a good weekend.
Luna slowly puts away her scented colouring pencils, narrowing her eyes as Miss Lewis's eyes dart to her before skipping over to the rest of the class.
Weird.
"Miss Lewis!" she pipes up as she slings her backpack over her shoulders, marching her way over to Miss Lewis's desk.
"Luna," the woman smiles, but it's almost... panicky. Interesting. "What can I help you with?"
"My parents night slip is done." Luna informs her, beaming and proudly brandishing the envelope.
"Oh, super!" the woman smiles, taking it from her and scanning over the contents for a moment. "Your mom's coming, that's-"
"Cool, right? She got time off for it!" Luna beams, rocking back and forth on her heels.
Miss Lewis nods, smiling fondly at her. "It is. You can show her that painting you've been working on, can't you? I bet she'll totes dig the rainbow glitter."
"You think?"
"Who wouldn't?" Miss Lewis retorts, arching a brow. Luna nods, as duh, everyone should love rainbow glitter.
"Miss Lewis," Luna begins again, tilting her head. "You've been ac-"
"Luna?" Her father calls out from the doorway, arms crossed and a bemused smile on his lips. "What we said about keeping Miss Lewis back with the bucket of questions?"
"Oh, I don't mind!" the woman quickly interjects, giving Luna another smile. "You come up with the wildest things, Luna, keeps me on my toes."
"Much like she does at home, then," her father sighs, but there's a smile on his face, one which Luna returns. Shortly, she looks back at Miss Lewis, furrowing her brow as the woman looks almost... flushed.
"Are you okay?" she asks, bluntly, and Miss Lewis blinks at her, startled.
"Just hot, is all."
Luna squints at her, glancing to the snow falling softly outside. Right.
She looks to her dad, seeing if he has caught onto the lie too, only... his cheeks are also a shade darker, his eyes not quite on Miss Lewis.
Adults. What weirdos.
"Come on, Luna," her father hums, holding out his hand. She eagerly skips her way over, clinging onto his arm. "Your aunt is making dinner tonight."
"Yeah!" she cheers, because Auntie Wanda is the best cook she knows. "Bye Miss Lewis!"
"Bye, Luna. See you next Monday, remember your homework this time, kay?"
"Kay!"
"She'll get it done," her father says, looking to Miss Lewis again. "Promise. You'll have no problems with her."
Miss Lewis's lips twitch into a little grin. "Oh, I rarely do. But I can't spoil the contents of parents night, what else will I have to talk about?"
Her father snorts, running his hand through his hair. Miss Lewis's eyes follow the hand, and Luna squints again.
"Then I shan't dig for too many spoilers. Now! Let's go, Luna. Miss Lewis." He nods at his daughter's teacher, and Luna waves, following her father out of the door. There's a muffled thump behind them, and what sounds like Miss Leeis talking to herself. Luna glances up at her father, pausing at the odd smile on his lips.
Seriously, adults are strange.
