ockiss 23 💘 jen doe x frankie sterling (@phillipsgraves!)

wc: 524

Frankie was having a bad day.

Then again, when wasn't he? It seemed that every time Richard called him into the office, his day immediately went down the drain and right now, all he was looking forward to was climbing under the covers to hide. He loosened the suffocating tie his father preferred he wore for business meetings, allowing him to breathe better, as he climbed the steps to his and Jen's front door.

It opened before he could fish his keys out of his pocket. Jen had clearly been waiting for him to return, Kai resting on her hip, and she leaned up to meet him for a kiss. He smiled against her lips. Exactly what he needed after a long, hard day.

"Hi honey," he said with a soft, fond laugh, taking their son from her. He pressed a gentle kiss to his forehead, delighting in the baby babble he gets in return. Just being with them, he already felt better. "You two miss me?"

"Always," Jen said, and she laughed, too. "He did good today, though. I'd say that's an improvement over the hours of screaming he did the last time you had to leave for something."

He held Kai up to look him in the eye. "That separation anxiety's a bitch, huh?"

"He takes after you," Jen said, gesturing for him to hand him back. She held him close to her chest once he was in her arms again. "Remember that first competition you had where I couldn't come with you? That phone bill was something else."

Frankie clicked his tongue. "Bully."

"Love you," was all she had to say in return, as she headed towards the kitchen. He followed after her, now noticing how good the house smelled, and she seemed to guess what he was thinking, as she continued. "I made your favorite dumplings. I figured you would need a pick me up."

"You know me too well," he said, peering into a pot on the stove while she busied herself with getting Kai settled in his high chair. She'd made his favorite soup, too, and briefly, he wondered what he did to deserve such an amazing person. "Hey, Jen?"

She glanced at him, brows raised. "Yeah, babe?"

"I love you so much."

That got a laugh out of her. "And here I thought I was just a bully."

He shook his head and moved away from the stove to pull her in by her waist. "No, you're the best wife I could ask for," he said, a little dramatically just to get his point across. He leaned in for another kiss, full of love and longing from being apart from her for so long. "Seriously."

"Hey, I already made you your favorite food." Her laugh made his chest ache, but in a good way, which was a welcome change from how he'd felt all day. "You don't need to butter me up."

"Ah, but maybe I do," Frankie said, and he kissed all over her face. "I love you. I love you. I love you."

Jen melted in his arms, still giggling softly. "I love you, too."

[likelyfantasywriterspsychic]

So I was Tagged by @ren-c-leyn for this and I thought it would be fun to do for my characters from In a Little Town:

  Rules: Assign ability points to your OCs. Abilities include Strength, Dexterity, Endurance, Intelligence, Wisdom and Charisma. Each ability has a maximum of ten possible points.

[[MORE]]

Sylvia "Silver" Nightengale:

Strength: 7

Dexterity: 10

Endurance: 7

Intelligence: 8

Wisdom: 4

Charisma: 6

Thr main character, She's actually really smart, and she gets good grades but she doesn't have the most sage advice, and normally has to turn to her friends to get some idea on how to proceed (not that she does very often). She's more of a strategist and fiercely independent (as she's had to be for most of her life) she taught herself alot of flips and tricks, which she uses in her fights alot making her a very difficult opponent. She can lead but it is difficult for her, as her natural temper flares a little too often, and when pushed to a breaking point becomes hyper-focused on her goals and will go through anyone that attempts to stop her.

Frankie Sterling:

Strength: 8-10 (depends on if she's in or out of hulk mode)

Dexterity: 6

Endurance: 5

Intelligence: 6

Wisdom: 10

Charisma: 8

Silver's best friend. She bruises easily and can't really take a alot of hits, alot a bit of a clutz, since she's more often looking through a camera lens than where she's going. When she goes hulk mode you don't get a hit in. The entire group is svarrd of her when shes pushed too far, but she's the one that everyone goes to for advice about life and stuff by far, and even some of the older characters end up turning to her, and respecting her thoughts and ideas.

Xander "Kuja" Maxwell:

Strength: 8

Dexterity: 7

Endurance: 8

Intelligence: 8

Wisdom: 6

Charisma: 10

Silver's boyfriend, he's a natural leader, which is why everyone seems to circle him alot of the time. He's not the smartest but he has friends that he knows he can delegate to, and does on a regular basis. He knows how to use their strengths to his advantage. He's been in alot of fights which grants him some of the most endurance, and he trains alot to make sure that he can take hits that are meant of the others. A bit of a martyr, he leads the charge alot always standing infront of the others. But when it comes to more personal stuff he is, just, such an idiot

Aaron "Raven" Wilde:

Strength: 7

Dexterity: 8

Endurance: 7

Intelligence: 6

Wisdom: 8

Charisma: 4

Smart and alot less of an idiot than his best friend Kuja, Raven can't talk his way out of a paper bag, he stumbles on his words alot even though he's a great writer (no, totally not a reflection on his creator) he's darker and more cynical than the others, & the only reason girls hang around is cause he gives off the bad boy stay away vibes when really it's just cause he's an akward little bean. He's wiser than Kuja, and often has to step in to check the more impulsive Silver and Fluff. He comes off as a real jerk but he has his tender moments and despite apperences really does love his friends.

Luke "Shaggz" Jensen:

Strength: 5

Dexterity: 9

Endurance: 5

Intelligence: 9

Wisdom: 9

Charisma: 7

The cinnamon roll of the group, and the emotional center, he's the smallest of the guys but also the smartest in more ways than one. He can destroy your live without every physically touching you which is good cause while he has trained to fight he isn't the greatest at it. Still everyone in the group respects his thoughts and are all a little terrified of him. After all he knows all the secrets of everyone in town. Push him to far, and he could burn the town without lighting a match.

Kane "Fluff" Bishop:

Strength: 10

Dexterity: 3

Endurance: 10

Intelligence: 4

Wisdom: 5

Charisma: 5

The last and "scariest" of the group he's the one you always want on your side in a fight. He is the oppitamy of the Crouching Bad-ass Hidden Moron. He is the strongest and biggest at 6'4" with muscles to match. He struggles to keep up with alot of the others in the smarts department but makes it up with the fact that he can defend them when things get bad (happens alot) and is actually really sweet and kind. Sometimes he can suprise the others by saying something really deep but then goes back to being his same goofy self. He always manages to break the tention when they gey too serious, but he knows when its need and when its not (most of the time). He's plays more of a goofy big brother role, which seems surprising considering how he looks. Alot of people are scared of him because he has the highest intimidation check ever, but once you get know him he really is just a Fluffy (get it?) Teddy Bear.

I'm not sure who to tag here so I'll just leave it open to anyone.

a kiss against shoulder blades as arms wrap around from behind for jenny and frankie pease

thank youuu <33 they are actually Everything to me....

Jen had known Frankie long enough to guess when he was in one of his moods.

It started the same way it always did. He'd said he was going out for a quick surf— normal for him, sure, but there was the slightest tremble to his voice that indicated it was more than a routine practice. She'd let him go, knowing he'd argue otherwise (he's fine, Jen, he just wants to blow off some steam), and then a quick surf turned into her watching him like an overprotective hawk from their porch for hours. A habit she'd fell into after his accident last summer, and clearly one she couldn't break.

Time ticked by agonizingly slow, the crashing of the tide not the slightest bit calming for her, but eventually, he came out of the water to drop his board and sit on the sand. She gave him a second to himself before slipping her sandals on to make her way to him.

Slow and gentle. She was always slow and gentle with him, careful to not startle him. He did the same for her during her fits of anxiety late in the night when she felt her most vulnerable and scared; it was the least she could do.

"Honey?"

No response. She breathed out a soft sigh, settling behind him. She'd be upset about the sand in her shorts later, but right now, he was the priority.

"Okay, you don't have to talk." She ran her hands through his wet hair and pulled it out of his face in a motion she knew relaxed him. "I'm here. You're with me. Can you at least let me know you're listening?"

He grabbed her hand to hold it against his chest. One squeeze. Two. A yes, in their books.

"Alright, there we go." She returned the squeeze before slipping her hand out of his to instead wrap her arms around him. He'd said once that he never felt safer than when he was close to her. That was an easy thing to give him. "I've got you."

"It's bad again."

His voice cracked. Her heart did, too. She pressed a feather light kiss to his back to remind him that she wasn't going anywhere. That as long as she could still breathe, she'd never go anywhere.

"I know, honey, I know."

🌈🍁🍭🔥🌺 + jen and frankie!

again, frankie belongs to @phillipsgraves! 💖

🌈 and 🍭 answered here, 🔥 answered here!

🍁 How was their first kiss? 

Like I said in the previous ask, their first kiss was in his car after their first date! She tasted like cotton candy and he couldn't resist going in for a second... a third... by the time they were done, they were both giggly messes and absolutely not ready to end the night.

🌺 Do they send cutesy or grossly sweet/romantic texts to each other? 

Depending on the verse... absolutely! They're both overly affectionate with each other and that extends to their correspondence. Frankie will send her at least 10 (usually more) ilys over the course of the day, while Jen loves sending him little affirmations.

1, 8, 12, 22 and 25 for Jen and Frankie 💕

thank you!! 💖

How do they feel about raising kids? Who broaches the topic first?

Between Jen and Frankie, she was way more open to kids than he was, but she was perfectly fine not having any if he didn't want them... and then Kai surprised them both. He quickly realized how much he did want kids with her when she told him over the phone... even dropped out of a competition to drive home and be with her during such an emotional time 😭🥺

Are there any interests that they share with their kids? If not, how do they nurture their kids’ interests? 

Kai is Frankie's mini-me when it comes to his interests... no surprise that his son was naturally drawn to the ocean! He gets him into surfing once he's old enough to try it and his love for the sport continues well into his adulthood. Frankie's proud! Jen... wishes they'd picked something safer LMFAO.

Who stays up late to help the kids out with their schoolwork the night before it’s due?

Jen, of course. Bless Frankie's heart, he is... not very bright. It's fine, though; she doesn't mind and she is very patient when there's something their son doesn't understand.

What type of skills/lessons/hobbies have they passed onto their kids?

Same answer as 12... surfing! I do think Kai would also find an interest in cooking from spending time with Jen, though.

Are they the type of parents to boast about their kids’ achievements? 

Yes! Both of them do, though Frankie way more than Jen. He's the dad yelling at soccer games and showing off report cards.

#oc: jen doe #friend oc: frankie sterling #insp: kai sterling #x: touch tank #their family makes me 🥺😭 #extremely an au but. this is the happy ending they deserve fr #also kai is.. not the only child they have but i'm just focusing on him LMFAO

[jendoe]

🌈🥀👉🍭🥂 for jen and frankie!

they are... so baby.. frankie belongs to @phillipsgraves ofc!

🌈 What were their first impressions of each other? 

Where Frankie was living out a movie scene because whooo is this goddess bringing him coffee, Jen honestly just saw him as another customer at first. It was her second shift of the day, she had barely slept the night before, and she was already not looking forward to driving home in the rain, but then... he said something and it made her laugh 😢

🥀 Do they both get jealous? 

Honestly, no, not at all. Communication is their strong point and they know if the other ever DID feel jealous, they'd be able to talk it out.

👉 Who is better at giving directions? 

Jen. With Frankie, it's just a bunch of hababa um you know that place with the place on the corner of ... yeah, turn there.

🍭 What are their nicknames for each other? 

Just the typical pet names. Jen tends to overuse them... honey and sweetheart are her favorite. Frankie calls her babe or baby in return!

🥂 How was their first date? 

He took her to the carnival and just... spoiled her with sweets and prizes. Even won her a GIANT teddy bear that she insisted on carrying around all night. They had their first kiss in the car and, uh... well, Jen went home with him!

💍 + jen/frankie obvi

canonically jen has margie's wedding ring bc ofc frankie called his mom like MOM PLEASE YOUR RING. it's a little more expensive than jen would like because she's a frugal woman but she is very fond of it! something like this with the big sapphire in the center...

she'd have a plain gold band to match (with something cheesy engraved on it bc her man is a dork) and i am having a difficult time finding a picture of what i imagine frankie's band to look like that isn't just a weird Render but... he'd have a gold band with three small sapphires in it!

🥀🍁🐀🌙 + Jen & Frankie?

thank YOU.... 🥀 answered here and 🍁 answered here!

🐀 Who steals the covers? 

Jen is definitely a menace when it comes to blanket hogging. She'll just... pull it off of him and roll up in it. Thankfully, Frankie tends to run on the warmer side and doesn't mind.

🌙 Who is a night person? 

Jen again! Though, it's less her enjoying the nighttime and more a combo of insomnia and working graveyard shifts at the diner.

'cause he's so pretty when he goes down on me // gold-skinned eager baby, blue shirt out the laundry // he tells me he's gentle when he wants to be // so i think he wants to be gentle with me

🐬 ❄️ 🔥 + frankie & jen xx

ty stella 😌 tagging @jendoe bc that's his goirl...

🐬 - Who made the first move? 

Frankie absolutely made the first move. He just straight up asked her out while he was still in town, wrote his phone number down on the napkin type of cheesy (how convenient that the carnival was in town)

❄️ - Who worries about the other the most?

While they both constantly worry over each other, I think Jen has it worse just purely because of his line of work. When your husband engages in extreme sports but also has a slight tendency to engage in self-destructive behaviour amirite (also he has wiped out once already)

🔥 - Who realized they were interested in who first? 

Frankie again! It was full on a scene from a movie; he'd been eating at the diner she works at, and then she walked up to him to take his order. The sight of her stained uniform, messy bun, and eyebags was love at first sight basically

[phillipsgraves]

@jendoe asked: a kiss to convince the other to stay + frankie & jen

more kiss prompts! bc i always love writing these two 🥺

It's early in the morning. Far too early.

When the sun is just about to peek over the horizon and the birds start to chirp, Frankie knows it's time to get up and start his day. His old man had been kind enough to grace him with a day off, but that just meant he had time to focus on his actual career.

Day offs were exercising days, practice days. There was no time to sleep in, and it definitely wasn't the time to eat his weight in junk, what with his tryouts coming up. Still, he elects to curl up further into his sheets, latching onto the sleeping figure next to him. He buries his face into Jen's hair, taking in the gentle scent of her strawberry shampoo.

She's been staying over more often, he thinks, and he's more than happy for it. Jen staying over meant she trusted him, that their relationship was just about starting to be more than casual.

Frankie remembers the time he'd called her his girlfriend, he remembers laughing as she practically malfunctioned in the diner. But she didn't say no. Time, she had told him. Jen needed more time. Time he was more than happy to give to her. And now, he wonders if she's already made a decision.

His thoughts are broken when she starts to stir, and Jen doesn't do much besides kiss his nose and greet him a good morning before starting to get up. With a gentle laugh, Frankie stops her before she gets too far.

"Someone's in a rush."

Jen laughs along, but she lies back down— for the moment. "I have to be," she says, as she gently takes his face in her hands. Her eyes dart around, as if memorizing his features. "I've got to go to work."

Frankie shakes his head. "It's a Saturday."

Jen giggles some more. "Lunch rush doesn't stop for the weekends, I'm afraid." She brushes her lips against his. "Tell you what, you can tell me what you want for lunch right now and you can go pick it up later."

"Uh-uh," Frankie says, shaking his head like a disobedient child. "Not good enough. I want you to stay here."

Jen playfully rolls her eyes. "I can't do that and you know it. Rent's due soon and Dwight needs all the help he can get."

"So I'll help," Frankie says, and he barrels on before Jen can argue. "I'll call your boss, tell him you're sick." He rolls over on top of her, then, pressing slow kisses to her face. He kisses her lips last, before pressing his forehead against hers. "Please? I'll even throw in a free breakfast for you."

Jen can only laugh at the affection. "You're such a baby sometimes, you know that?"

Frankie grins against her lips. "Yeah, but I'm your baby."

Pressing one last kiss to his forehead, Jen finally nods. Frankie holds back the urge to cheer. "Throw in some hot chocolate and you've got a deal."

☀️❄️🔥💐 for frankie & jen?

omg this is late but thank you sophie!!

❄️ and 🔥 are answered here!

☀️ - Did they both want children/How many children did they want? 

Jen I absolutely can see having wanting children down the line, Frankie... not so much. Given his rocky childhood, he's just a little bit afraid of turning out like his father lmao! Even then, neither of them were ready when they had their first kid, Kai. They immediately fell in love, though, and they're perfectly content with the four they have

💐 - Is one more protective than the other? 

Frankie, absolutely. He knows Jen's been through a lot, and she's had her fair share of heartbreaks, so he'll be damned before he lets anything hurt her again

#x: she's my cherry pie #oc: frankie sterling #friend oc: jenny doe #asks #shadowglens

[phillipsgraves]

a kiss to make the other stop being stubborn for my beloved franny 😩😩😩😩

not exactly stopping him from being stubborn, but.

"And where do you think you're going with all of that?"

Frankie stops in his tracks, his hand caught in the metaphorical cookie jar. He pulls the spoon out of his hand, coated in chocolate frosting from the slice of cake he clearly had in a takeout container. "Uh...it's cheat day?" He says in a way that was clearly trying to appease her.

Jen looks unimpressed. "And I don't suppose that's a milkshake in that cup you're holding, too?"

Frankie takes a tentative sip. "To wash the chocolate down," he says, giving her a sheepish smile. "Oh, don't look at me like that, I took some Lactaid before I went out."

Jen rolls her eyes. These days it feels more like she has two children instead of just one. "May I kindly remind you that you're diabetic, too?"

Frankie pouts. "I was feeling a little low, anyway."

Jen gives him an incredulous look, then scoffs. "Yes, because wildly swinging between both ends of the spectrum is clearly the way to do it." She sighs, holding a hand out. "I'll let you keep the shake, but hand the cake over," she tells him, adding in a quiet 'thank you' when he does as he's told, albeit a little dejectedly. "Hon, you know it's for your own good."

"Yeah, I know," Frankie replies, taking another sad sip at his shake. "Just miss being able to eat junk every once in a while, that's all." He plops down on the couch, swirling his straw around. "Considering it's my off season and all."

Jen pinches the bridge of her nose with a sigh, as she glances between him and the slice of cake. She really, really shouldn't be doing this, but… curse her empathy. He looked so excited walking through the front door, clearly having looked forward not to be on his usual regimen for once, and here she was, taking it away from him.

No. Knowing her husband, he's probably tugging on her heartstrings on purpose. Frankie and Kai were both pretty good at that game-- after all, she's certain that was where her son gets it from. She sits down next to him, offering a gentle smile. Maybe she could work out a compromise? "We could make smoothie bowls instead? I bought fruit earlier."

Frankie shrugs-- Jen feels worse. "Yeah, that works," he replies, and now she's not so certain he's faking it just for some cake. Ah, damn it. He really was upset, wasn't he? Very well.

"Okay, okay," Jen replies, and she extends an olive branch by offering the cake back. "If I let you have this, will you let me watch your levels the rest of the afternoon? I don't need you getting hyperglycemic on me."

Frankie immediately perks up, as he takes the container back. "Deal," he says, taking a bite of his cake with a happy noise. "I'll even let you check right now if it'll make you feel better."

"Yeah, well," Jen starts, and she runs her fingers through his hair, leaning in for a kiss when he turns his head to face her. She has to admit-- chocolate tasted a lot better when it was on him. "Don't come crying to me when you start getting an upset stomach from all this sugar. You'll be passed out in bed in an hour."

Frankie grins against her lips. "Then so be it."
