Very short oneshot where Kyle Crane comforts you after a failed mission.
🏷 hurt/comfort, father figure kyle crane
✏️ 358 words (told ya it was short)
Tumblr media
Your body ached, sharp jolts of electricity burned its way through you, begging you to rest. But you couldn’t stop, The Tower was in your sights.
Come on, just a little further.
Clawing your feet across the concrete, screaming at your legs to keep pushing, you finally feel the entrance of The Tower engulf you in it’s loving embrace.
“They’re back!” One of the guards announced to the rest of the building’s dwellers, lifting you effortlessly with one arm, hoisting you onto the first floor.
The guard shot you a worried look, noticing your dishevelled appearance, but let you go.
Part of you was relieved, having to recall the events that just transpired was not exactly high on your priority list.
Your bed’s soft song sang to you, calling you into it’s arms. You made a bee-line for your room, but a strong pair of arms landed on your shoulders.
“Hey! How was the mission?” The voice said, filling your body with a homey and warm feeling.
You turned to face the owner of the arms planted on you.
Kyle Crane.
He looked you up and down, his soft and happy demeanor instantly fading.
“Shit kid, what happened?”
You stayed silent.
“Hey, you can talk to me.” He murmured, kneeling down to your eye level.
You shook your head, crunching your nose and eyes at the images of the scene flooded back to you.
His face hardened, noticing your body shivering.
He reached out to you, inviting you into his arms, which you immediately accepted.
Your body sunk into his, instantly feeling the warmth radiating off of him and onto you. He wrapped his arms around you with the type of tenderness that was long forgotten in the unforgiving new world you lived in. He rested his head on top of yours, making a conscious effort to be as gentle as possible.
“You’re safe now, okay? I promise. I won’t let anything hurt you,” he whispered. You nodded, face buried into his shoulder. “You are safe.”
You both remained unmoving for a few minutes. Your fear and adrenaline melted away as Crane engulfed you in his gentle arms.
[ a/n : sorry this is so short! i have assessments and stuff to do which consumes a lot of my brain power. let me know if you guys like this! i might write more of a fleshed out version in the future.]

“Well, maybe now I’m sulking because I’ve been with you all day and haven’t been able to kiss you once.” “Oh, is that it?” Regulus hums as he’s pulled closer. “You poor thing.” “You’re mocking me, but I’m actually devastated.”
I was fortunate enough to be able to commission this incredible artwork by @jaioes for chapter 5 of baby, all i wanna do is coast (with you). and I will never be normal again, actually!! All the love in the world to Zar for being so fantastic with this, truly<33

Hi, so I used to be a writer, I was so known for it, my english teacher suggested I enter a short story writing competition in high school which, I actually won and had my work published from. Sadly, during covid I lost time to write due to family matters and life getting hectic and its kinda continued to be hectic for the last few years, which has caused me to lose what confidence I had in my writing.
But I'm hoping to remaster my writing skills, as I'm on break for two weeks and only have eight-ish weeks of college left before summer, so I'm planning to post some storys really soon on here.
I'd also like to take requests as my creative juices aren't as active as they use to be, so once my checklist of ideas are done, I'll be a little stuck.
What I'll write for:
Sonic
Miraculous
Arcane
The Walking Dead (AMC show and TellTale game.)
Resident evil
Dying light
The last of us
Tomb raider
Uncharted
Persona 5
I'll add to this if I have inspiration for other fandoms.
I'll only be doing ships or 'x reader's as I don't want to risk misinterpreting any o/cs.
Don't comment if you don't like a pairing. If you do I'll just block you. I don't care what anyone ships as long as they are respectful to others and understand everyone has different preferences. I'll try and write for as many ships, popular or rare pair, as I can think of a full storyline. I won't announce storys until I have a plot mapped just so I can cancel it if I can't make it work.
I'll probably add a list of what I'm not comfortable writing at some point, but I'll cross that bridge when I get to it.

'Til Kingdom Come
princess diaries totally lied about what happens when you become a princess btw
index
genre: romance, coming-of-age, royalty
i. start of something new
Tumblr media
You can’t help but stare in awe at the palace building in front of you, with the dark blue and white flags dancing in the air to a rhythm that you cannot hear. 
The palace towers above you, white stone marble glinting from the sunlight. You crane your neck, almost falling backwards in a sore attempt to catch the top of the castle. Your grandmother’s guard, Akira, catches you with a reassuring hand to your back, holding back his laughter while you struggle to catch your footing. 
The wooden doors open the second the guards see your grandmother ascending the marble stairs, and you hurriedly follow behind her, ignoring the way some of the guards openly gaped at you. Your grandmother glances over her shoulder, taking note of the unease on your face. 
“You needn’t worry,” She reassures you, a hand gently pushing your shoulders back to straighten your posture, “You will do a fine job of being our princess” 
The words are meant to be comforting, you know, but the pressure bears down harder on your chest instead. 
Becoming a princess at the age of 18 is not something that you were even mildly prepared for. It’s something out of a fairytale, a dream that many young girls have. You were no different, especially after watching ‘Princess Diaries’ starring your all time favorite actress, Anne Hathaway. 
However, something twisted in your gut as you stared at your grandmother’s tiara, glittering diamonds reflecting in the sunlight casting a shadow over your figure as though to warn you, your experience would be nothing like the beloved coming-of-age film. 
Akira gestures for you to walk down a hallway, large oil paintings adorning the walls depicting the past rulers of Aoba Johsai and their family members. You can’t help but pause at a photo of your father when he was younger, dressed in a black uniform with gold buttons and different colored ribbons decorating his chest while he grinned wildly at the camera. Your grandmother stood in the background, a soft smile on her face, while your late grandfather mimicked your father’s expression. 
“You know,” Your grandmother suddenly appears behind you, gazing fondly at the photo, “You have your grandfather’s eyes”
You can’t help but gently reach up towards your eyes, staring intently at the photo of your late grandfather. The longer you stare at the photo, the more the realization dawns upon you. 
I’m a princess 
These people are my family
This is not a game
Your grandmother seems to sense your inner turmoil, turning to face you as your expression begins to morph into something akin to fear. 
“I’ve said it before, and I will say it again,” She pulls your hand away from your face, tilting your chin up, “You will make a fine ruler of this country. You will not let me down”

Empty
The final part! Admittedly, I might've put a little too much humor into this? Hopefully it's not too obnoxious lol
SG sentient LL au by @cuppajj
“I mean the vibes are definitely haunting, but so far nothing has happened. No ghosts or stowaways,” the shoulder mounted camera turned on its swivel to point at Cloutchaser’s face. His pet metal wing had crawled into his backpack and was nervously clucking as he looked around. The Decepticon, though, seemed more disappointed and perplexed than worried as he made eye contact with his camera.
“I did do a bit of reading up on this ship’s history, but nothing had explained why it became abandoned or what happened to the crew of Autobots. I mean… people like them, especially Rodimus who was their captain, don’t just… disappear…” Cloutchaser paused and narrowed his mismatched optics as he spotted something laying on the floor of the long hallway just up ahead. His camera followed his gaze and zoomed in. It… looked like a body.
He was proven right as he approached the form, his camera’s light illuminated the faded red-grey armor.
“Oh. I… I think I know this guy,” the light shined onto the figure’s face, revealing a set of curved horns that at one point were bright orange and hollowed out cheeks. The face’s expression was locked in a mix of shock, sadness and fear.
“It’s Cyclonus,” Cloutchaser hummed, turning his camera away from the body and back onto himself, “he used to be a fierce warrior way back when, but often struggled with following orders and was impatient. Apparently he lacked loyalty and was often manipulated or tricked by the Autobots. I’m not sure how he got mixed in with this crew. Some say it was an accident, others think manipulation or that he decided to switch sides. We may never know what happened, sadly. I like to think he always had good intentions, but whatever. Hopefully he went out like the great warrior he was.”
Something told him that wasn’t the case though. Aside from the expression on his face, Cyclonus was missing his left arm and leg, and the stumps left behind were too clean for that to have been from an attack. Plus his sword was still strapped onto his back. His observations weren’t bringing up any answers though, only more questions, so he moved on.
“Another one,” just five minutes after leaving Cyclonus’ remains, he stumbled upon another body, “hmm, this looks like… Blaster? Yeah, Blaster. Looks like he’s missing some parts too.”
Not far from Blaster was what was left of Getaway, his head laying on a pile of his own limbs. The further Cloutchaser walked, the more the bodies and body parts piled up.
“What’s weird is that they weren’t violently ripped apart,” he commented as he examined a dismembered servo, “someone carefully cut them up. If any of my viewers are experts in… I dunno, examining the dead or whatever, please do send in your thoughts in the comments! I think we’re onto something bigger than previously thought.”
Snapster squawked and pulled his head into the safety of his backpack. Clout quickly turned around to face whatever had startled his buddy. 
There was nothing.
“Huh. Don’t worry, Snap. I’m sure it’s nothing. Corpses may be scary but they can’t hurt you,” he received a small chirp in response and continued down the littered hall. He passed by a small door, maybe a closet, and tried to pull it open.
“Locked. Oh well,” he shrugged and left it, oblivious to the figure watching his every step from the shadows.
Starhawk snuck out of the Decepticon ship. He was a little surprised he could still sense the two other sparks nearing the med bay. Hm. Maybe this was his chance.
The Lost Light may be the ship itself, but even they couldn’t focus on everything going on inside. Plus, it probably thought he was still locked up dead in that closet, and if it did then it’s focus would mostly be on the intruders than anything else. If he acted fast, he might be able to grab Rodimus and leave!
‘Oh yeah,’ the remaining part of his face twisted in a wide grin of both excitement and anxiety as he scurried through the vents and gaps with less caution than he always had before, ‘it’s all coming together.’
“Wow. Just… wow,” Cloutchaser stared wide eyed at the state of the medical bay. It was a mess. Not in bodies (well, there were plenty of little fragments scattered about along with old energon stains) but just how everything was kind of everywhere. All of the tools were out, but not a single one was discarded onto the floor. The… not so dusty floor.
“Ok, that is just weird,” he muttered to himself as he crouched down to run a finger along the floor. He raised his servo up to the camera, “the floor is pretty clear, see? Meanwhile, out in the hall, there was a lot of dust on the floor and even in the air. Plus, all of the tools are out, but they’re also clean and look to be well cared for and used. This could mean that someone has been using this med bay and cleaning these instruments.”
Cloutchaser’s eyes paled at the realization and he swallowed nervously, his spark pulse starting to quicken, “oh god, we’re not alone on this ship, are we?”
His soul nearly evicted itself from his chamber as Snapster let out a shrill alarm call and flew from his backpack. He spun around, hands fumbling for his gun.
“Who is-?”
“Here,” a stranger clad in purple armor with red spines protruding from their back, head and shoulders stepped out of the shadows, blocking the doorway. They had one of their hands casually raised while the other was held neatly behind their back.
The Decepticon vlogger fell back on his rear end and pointed his handgun at the stranger. Snapster was flying around the room squawking in panic.
“You’re… Cloutchaser, right?” The stranger flashed a friendly/not-friendly smile.
“What’s it to you? You a viewer of mine or something?”
“Something like that I suppose,” they shrugged. Cloutchaser looked them up and down, gun (and camera) still pointed at them.
“Stalker then. Alright,” he hissed, “give me one good reason not to pull the trigger.”
“You’re free to try,” their smile widened a bit, “but it won’t do anything for you.”
“You threatening me? You threatening me in front of my son?!” He pointed at the panicking metal wing, “my good boy?! He don’t need more traumatizing! He’s already stressed out enough!”
The purple mech raised a brow at him and glanced at Snapster, “I really don’t care about your pet-”
“-Son-”
“Pet.”
“Well-whatever,” Cloutchaser snapped, “my pet, my son, my buddy and pal! Whatever! What do you want, weirdo?!”
“You’re being an incredibly rude guest,” they glared down at the Decepticon with disdain, “walking around like you own the place, recording my dead crew (are you still recording?) and now you point a gun at me. I should kill you right where you sit.”
Cloutchaser shrunk back as the strange Autobot loomed over him. He heard Snapster hiss and snap his jaws in a threat.
“But, I won’t,” they straightened their back and clasped their hands together with a loose smile, “no, that would make a mess of things here, and your pet will just get more worked up. He’s already loud enough as is.”
The Decepticon yelped in surprise as the stranger grabbed his arm and yanked him up.
“Ooh. A lot lighter than I was expecting.”
“I’m pretty hollow,” he stared at the stranger cautiously, but also greatly confused. They just smiled and tugged him towards the exit of the med bay. Snapster followed after his owner, “where are we going?”
“Somewhere else, so I can properly punish you,” their grip on his forearm tightened.
“Uh-how about no?” Cloutchaser hugged a startled Snapster under his free arm and gave a hard yank against the Autobot, his arm popping off at the elbow.
As the stranger was left with his spazzing limb, he turned and bolted.
“Hey!!”
‘Fragfragfragfragfrag!’ Clout picked up his pace as the walls suddenly shifted and cords shot out to try and grab him or knock him over. Good thing Clout was a pro at running away, expertly twisting, turning, leaping and sliding out of the grasping cords. He could hear the stranger shouting, but it was like their voice was everywhere at once.
He never expected the stranger to just materialize in front of him. His heels dug into the floor, sending a spray of sparks as he tried to skid to a halt. The air was knocked from his frame as that falter allowed a cord to grab him by his midsection. Snapster squawked as he flew from his grasp, but quickly righted himself in the air and flew out of sight into the shadowy hall.
“SNAPSTER!” Cloutchaser shrieked, his remaining hand stretched out to try and grab what was already long out of reach, “don’t hurt him! Do whatever you want to me but please don’t hurt him!”
“Your pet isn’t a priority,” the purple mech scowled, the con’s limp arm still in their grasp. They glanced at it and held it up at him, coincidentally making his own servo point at his face, “and by the looks of it, you aren’t either anymore.”
“Huh?” He blinked and made an attempt to retrieve his arm. The stranger didn’t stop him.
“You have been nothing but a waste of time!” They snapped, their red eyes flashing angrily behind their matching visor, “time that I could be using to-!”
They stopped, their eyes unfocusing. Cloutchaser stared blankly at them, confused as to what exactly was going on.
After a moment their narrowed eyes widened in shock, “oh no. No no NO!”
“What-” Cloutchaser was dropped to the floor and both the cords and stranger disappeared, leaving him sitting alone in the hall, utterly confused.
“How?! I killed you!” Lightlost glared at the mangled white jet standing in front of the captain’s seat. Starhawk grinned, holding Rodimus snug against his chest with both arms and tendrils. The tendrils were tightly tangled around the smaller frame, and Hawk was holding a talon right up against the prime’s throat, ready to sever a vital cord within an instant.
“You did, yes,” he chuckled, “but I’d hate to leave a promise unfulfilled.”
Lightlost bristled and balled their fists in frustration. They perked as it suddenly struck them.
“It was you! You bit the captain! You were the one picking through the deceased!”
“All me, baby!” He laughed, “I can’t believe I managed to actually trick you! Maybe being sparkless does have its perks!”
The entire ship rumbled with rage. Lightlost grit their teeth, “I’ll kill you again!”
“You’re free to try,” Starhawk cooly cocked his hip, “but one wrong move, and I might accidentally hurt the captain. Or worse.”
He pressed his talon into the soft mesh of an artery for emphasis. The avatar’s eyes widened and they backed off.
“You wouldn’t. You… you love him too much to ever do such a thing.”
Hawk frowned, “you were quick to judge during my first attempt. And while I do care about Rodimus, if it means he must die in order to be free from you, then I will end his suffering.”
“‘Suffering’? I was keeping him safe! I was keeping him with me!”
Starhawk hissed, flaring his wings out, “he’s mine to protect! You’re just a ship. A space boat. You were supposed to merely bring us from point A, to point B. Nothing more. Now get out of my way.”
The ship again rumbled, Lightlost’s expression became murderous. The sparkeater further hooked his claw into the prime’s neck and the tendrils tightened around his frame, his armor audibly starting to give under the pressure.
Lightlost again backed down. Their face was twisted in frustration. It almost looked like they would start to cry, honestly. After another moment, the avatar vanished.
Starhawk smirked, but narrowed his eye suspiciously as he stepped out into the hall with his prize and started to walk at a brisk pace, phantom spark pounding as he remained on high alert in case the ship tried anything. But considering that his claw was in Rodimus’ neck and tendrils wrapped around delicate joints, they probably wouldn’t. They cared too much about the captain.
His fast walk turned into a full sprint as he neared the hangar. The Decepticon ship’s lights were a beacon. Starhawk couldn’t stop the excited laughter bubbling up from his chest as he ran inside and plopped down into the pilot’s seat. He hugged Rodimus even tighter and nuzzled against his cheek. He was surprised to find it wet with tears, and his eyes, wide and bright, stared up at him.
“I did say that I’d save you, didn’t I?” Rodimus just blinked at him.
His laughter subsiding, Hawk freed one arm to start the ship and steer it out of the hangar. When had they last seen the stars?
He should also try calling Slingarm once they were far enough away. Rodimus could honestly benefit from a licensed doctor. Even a crazy one.
He started to laugh again.
Lightlost wasn’t sure what to do. They had messed up. They wanted to transform and snatch the runaway Decepticon ship up and hold it close and never ever let Rodimus go again, but Hawk would surely kill him if they tried that.
They stumbled to the control room and stood at the doorway.
The pale red Tagonopterox was perched on the head of the captain’s chair. He looked at the holoavatar, chirped, then returned to preening the rotors on his wing.
This wasn’t fair. Their captain should be sitting there, like he always had. It was so empty here. Why was everyone gone?
Lightlost shuffled to the empty chair, dragging their feet like they weighed several tons, and collapsed on the armrest. They buried their face in their arms and screamed, startling the metal wing away.
They screamed and screamed, even after their avatar dissipated, the entire ship continued to scream.
A forgotten Decepticon vlogger could only watch and record as bit by bit, the Lost Light started to shut themself down.

heyyyy I just finished the. 3rd? Third I think- reading of your fic and I'm still blown away. Not just at how well written it is, from the descriptions, to the characters themselves being so interesting and likeable, and the way you weave in events from canon, but also just the sheer length of it. Seeing the story gradually unfold has been incredibly satisfying so far.
I just wanted to jump in here and thank you for sharing your work with us, it's been an absolute joy to read. Hopefully you're having a nice day, and everything is going well!
Hello reader! Thank you very much for this reply. It really means a lot to hear people taking a shine on this and enjoying Descent. I do my best to bring out a lot into its storytelling and within the same charm as Dying Light. I actually have gotten back to writing and managed to get a portion of the current chapter done. Here's hoping that I'll be able to post it up soon and keep up the motivation onwards but until then, I hope you'll enjoy the rest of the story!

I absolutely love the fanfic idea where L's selfish and decides to just keep Light instead of sending him to be executed after he's revealed to be Kira, instead offering him a chance to redeem/atone himself, and they go on to solve cases and live together and get married and stuff.
But I just thought of how hilarious it would be if L somehow falls for BOTH Kiras and has a crisis about it -- Not because they're mass murdering serial killers, but because he isn't able to choose between them. So he's just like, fuck it, why not both, and just smuggles them out of Japan. He doesn't even pretend it's for any kind of 'making amends' kinda thing, and both Light and Misa are so baffled like? "Weren't you the one to proclaim you were justice on national TV?" "That was before the Kiras revealed themselves to be HOT, okay i am an impulsive selfish man and pretty people make me WEAK stop complaining!"
And then the THREE of them go on to solve cases, live together, get married, rule the world, you know, power couple stuff.

WIP Tag Game
Rules: in a new post, show the last line you wrote (or drew) and tag as many people as there are words (or as many as you feel like).
I was tagged by the lovely @kimberbohwrites ❤️
no pressure tags: @chrissymodi-frost, @soft-girl-musings, @swaps55, @rpgwrites, @mallaidhsomo @feyhunter78 @not-those-kids @durrtydawg @lilsnatch @libertatias
(Tried to tag more people but tumblr flipped out for some reason)
A very rough draft scene from chapter 2 of my Tav x Astarion fic under the cut:
His eyes roamed her body, snagging on her exposed neck and the beginning swell of her breasts. Her breath hitched for a moment at the realization of her own vulnerability, but the way he was looking at her made her feel good. It made her feel desired, something she hadn’t felt in a long time.
Words failed her, she wanted to counter him and try to be assertive, but she had crumbled underneath his sensual gaze. He took another step forward, grazing one of her exposed shoulders with the back of his hand. Her body stilled, holding her breath as she waited for his next move.
(Not the last line per se, but a part I keep rewriting and editing)
