and now for something stupid
#but really i also just wanted to play around w this sort of coloring style bc its been FOREVER since ive used it#and i think i can make it look better now#AND i think i can make more sillay stuff like this and not have it take as long w cleaning up lines#anyway now you all understand the terrible dynamic between these three#phobo's infodump text is just copypasted from the wikipedia page for knives.#julliet ALSO uses knives is the thing so hes actually mansplaining < JOKE#he just wants to share. even if it gives her a headache. but he wouldnt mansplain he doesnt have it in him. hes ok with felonies tho#but julis life hasnt known peace since she was told to take care of the newbies#and shes ALSO a newbie (just slightly less so) so really this is probably just tartarus hazing her#theyd take one look at the two disorganized unserious overeager newbies and think ''you know what would be fucking hilarious''#and pass them onto the neurotic slightly-less-newbie who takes everything as seriously as possible. disaster combination.#i cannot stress enough that this is a group of bandits and murderers theyre NOT above hazing.#deimos actually is doing the best job at it since he is stealing as we speak#i mean hes not supposed to do it to his teammates but still. on the right track#as for the dynamic between deimos and phobos themselves its like. theyre just bros. theyre both pretty similar in personality#except deimos is kinda more mean and cynical while phobos can be kinda. dense and naive despite literally where hes at in life#but most of the time theyre basically beavis and butthead#i would also like to stress that juli is not being homophobic she just already cannot stand these guys and cant believe the audacity#but. complete misunderstanding. karma for stealing wallets ig#this will never be cleared up by anyone ever#but again thats not their dynamic they are just beavis and butthead. and i guess that makes juli daria LOL#finn's ocs#finn's art

Hey bub, i have another (😭) idea for you. So sorry, i have no clue how many you have from me at this stage. Pls dont feel pressured to write any of them; i just get an idea/story line in my head and send it to you after a few days of it stewing before it gives me a headache 😫
But anyway, the idea is: James and Lily have just started dating but shes starting to feel a little weird about your (Ravenclaw!reader) relationship with him. From her perspective youre always around him; are openly affectionate with him (but nothing over the top); make him little presents; spend holidays with him etc. but its not enough for her to think hes cheating, just to make her a little uncomfortable.
She asks the girls if maybe shes the weird one here and overthinking it but someone passing by butts in and says how youre the same with Sirius and its why he wouldnt date her (we know thats not why) but it makes Lily a little more uncomfortable so she decides to confront James.
So she does and hes just silently in shock because "what?!" But the longer he stays quiet the more embarrassed/anxious/irritated lily gets. Then you start giggling, coming in at the tail of the conversation unnoticed, and explain to Lily that youre James cousin but youve lived with your aunt & uncle most of your life so hes more of a brother (+Sirius since hes moved in). Then to lessen the tension you loosen your tie and show her the hickeys down your neck "plus im dating Remmy, and he doesnt share well." Cue the fake gagging from James and Sirius, Lilys giggles and Remus' gentle scolding before "and if anythings, James should be concerned. I might just steal you from right under his nose 😉" Cue James indignation, Sirius' cackling, Remus' chuckles and more of Lily's giggles.
Again, pls dont feel pressured to write anything love but thanks for taking the time to read it 🧡.
Also i feel like i send enough of these that ill probs add a question at the bottom of each one and if you want to you can give me one in return if you write the idea??
First ones basic; whats your favourite colour? I like to say mine is red but i tend to gravitate towards for more earthy colours when i have to pick one for something xx
Hi my angel! This is another one I kept in my inbox for like over a month and just couldn't figure out how I'd write it (I totally know the headache feeling you mean too, there's some stuff I have to write before my brain explodes), but the public has to see!!! I lovelovelove how you portrayed Lily in this; I feel like there's too many jealous!Lily fics out there for my taste, because she seems like such a girl's girl! Like even though she's a bit insecure about reader and James' relationship, she's still going about it in the nicest and most careful way (like checking with other people before accusing James of anything and trying to be rational about it) and I just feel like that's SO her.
Q+A portion: I'm a purple gal! Very stereotpyical purple gal in that I don't think I actually have that many purple things but then some days I'll go outside and realize I've got on my purple sweater, purple socks, and purple little earbud case attatched to my tote. I totally get the earth tones thing though, I feel like they're so easy to pair together so most of my closet and decor is in earth tones too :)

ENJOYY!! <3333
Tumblr media
Headache
Dripping nose
Coldness
These were all the symptoms that were bothering you right now. You were feeling like death. No. Even worse. You were feeling far worse than this. 
However, your attentive boyfriend had warned you yesterday. 
The day before was cold, freezing almost. Rain poured on every surface of your skin. Wetting not only what little clothes you wore, you were entirely soaking wet. Your face covered in a heavy layer of water, cascading between the valley of your breasts and onto your tummy. 
The day had just started, you were walking to Zeke’s car when the rain started to come down. The more the minutes passed and the more rain arrived. 
You were waiting for Zeke to come and open the car for both of you to get in. 
When he arrived, dressed with his big boots and a warm long coat, he immediately declared “You should really put a bigger coat on you, doll face, they announced that much rain for the entire day”. 
 But he already knew what you would answer, he knew oh too well, how much of a stubborn brat you could be. “No, don’t need one, I’m sure the rain will stop and we won’t be under it far too long anyway, don’t worry Zeke”, you shot him a smile. 
And how you were wrong, and deep down, you knew it from the beginning. But you wanted to be right, and as always you weren’t. 
You were currently in your shared bed, the sheets up your nose to bring warmth to your glacial body, legs brought back to your belly, arms around them. 
Even with the heater on, besides your bed, it seems as the warmth wouldnt get to your body. Your sneezes were getting louder and more were coming out of your mouth the more time passed. 
You were starting to regret not listening to him. 
As the thought crossed your mind, the said man opened the door to enter the bedroom, curious to know if you had finally woken up. 
“How are you sleepyhead?”
You let your head peak a little from under the sheets, opening your heavy lidded eyes to look at him in pain. “In your opinion? Obviously, bad”, you let out with a puff, putting the sheets back on your head. 
“Don’t tell me I didn’t warn you then”, he says with a mocking tone. 
“Zeke you’re being mean... you were right, happy now?”
He doesn’t reply back but you can perfectly see his perfect smug smile even with your eyes half closed. 
“I’m going to fetch you some medicine, soup, tissues and water”, he keeps on, “where is it?”, whispering to himself, “ah and here is your favorite plushie while I’m preparing all of that, here, doll face”, he hands it to you and you can’t help but crack a smile at the little affectionate gesture. Even though Zeke can be a little bastard at times, he never fails to take care of you. 
While he is away, for barely a few minutes, your eyes start to close again, taken away by the urge to get some more sleep. As you sense yourself drift off, the door opens again with Zeke’s arms full of stuff. 
He lay everything on the mattress, firstly taking in his hands the meds. And you look at him with disgust, knowing perfectly the taste of these horrible things. 
As he senses your discomfort very well, he voices to you, “Don’t start giving me puppy eyes, you’re sick, so you have to listen to me today, are we clear baby?” 
You huff, you really didn’t want to take these, but seeing Zeke taking his time to make you feel better, prevents you from being annoying with him. You nod as a yes and he can’t be more happy that, for once, you listen to him. 
“Open up”, he announces softly, and when you do, he puts the meds in your mouth, then gives you some water to help you swallow it. 
“Here you go, don’t you think it’s better when you try to be a good girl for me huh?”
“I’m gonna slap your arrogant glasses off your nose if you don’t shut your mouth Zeke.”
He can’t help but let out a loud laugh as he takes in his hands the bowl of soup. 
“Okay, okay, I’ll stop. Here, open but careful it’s maybe too warm.”
In all honesty, you didn’t like soup that much but, again, seeing your boyfriend taking care of you at this moment, was very pleasant. You comply and let him help you eat the soup, all of it, and you can’t deny the fact that it helps your body to get warmer. 
During the time that you were starting to space out again, Zeke had cleaned all the bed from the meds and soup, leaving the water on your bedside table. 
He was back before you could even point out his absence.
“Hey, would you give me room to lay behind you, sleepyhead?”
“But…you will get sick, if you come too near me…”
“Doesn’t matter, come on raise your back a little, or I might change my mind you know..”, and here was the cockiness again. 
You comply, raising a little so he can place you between his legs, your back to his chest and his strong arms around you, bringing so much needed warmth and comfort. 
“Better?”
“Better”, you reply. 
While Zeke pats your head camly to helps you rest, your eyes starts to wander on your bedside table, where, close to your bottle of water, is placed his cigarettes, and it’s just now that you realise that commonly, Zeke would always be smoking at this time of the day, but seeing the state you were in, he prefered not to disturb you with the smoke, even though you had already get used to. 
“Thank you for everything Zeke”, and as a reply, he gives a few pecks to your neck, helping you to fall even quicker into Morpheus’s arms.

Nevermind, here goes:
Eris wasn't what she expected.
She knew he wouldn't even bother to play at being courtly like Azriel, nor would he pretend to understand her like Cassian.
She knew to expect some sort of version of Rhysand, that entitlement and arrogance shrouded in cheap charm that all the High Lords seemed to have.
But she was surprised at how his jabs hurt less, how often he just let her win, how he'd talk to her like she was a person whose opinions mattered.
It took her very little time to realize just how desperate Eris Vanserra was for an ally.
His requests for advice are often cutting, like he hates having to ask someone that is a child in his eyes, but they are there. Along with this doubt she is no stranger to, 'Am i enough? Can i do this?' Nesta never diminishes her attitude for him, but she never leaves a question unanswered either.
She thinks she should hate him, based on what she's heard, but finds she doesn't. Maybe it's because she lacks the energy to try, or maybe because she knows that perhaps 500 years from now, the Inner Circle might talk about her the same way they do about Eris. There's a hidden kindship there, between them, that goes unmentioned.
After their bethrotal, Eris had winnowed her to the cottage, beautiful and dreamy and filled with books. She doesn't ask him if he had put them there.
They get to work almost inmediatly. Eris can't leave the castle he lives in, for fear of leaving his mother alone for too long, nor can he bring Nesta along, revealing his little ace up his sleeve.
He will visit her weekly, bring her news about his plans, share his strategies and train her as much as he can, both in her power and education as his wife.
If Nesta is surprised at any of this, she doesn't show it.
But she is.
She is also lonely, briefly wonders when had her life come to her waiting for a High Lord to come and talk to her and had she become her sister, who didn't even bother to write, yet again?
Eris visits more than once a week, doesn't even bring supplies (the cottage is as self sufficient as the cabin, cause let's be honest, the Night Court can't be the sole owner of the cool magic) or news, he just shows up. Sometimes they have dinner, silently staring at each other, waiting for an attack that often doesn't occur, sometimes he stays the night in the room farthest away from her.
His crush on this female was the most horrifyingly embarrasing thing he'd ever experienced. He couldn't even hide behind false advances, had seen her tense at his teasing and known a certain Illyrian had left a scar there.
There was also the fact that he sometimes hated her, but he was also comforted by the fact it stopped neither of them from speaking.
So he's left with showing up randomly at the cottage, desperately trying not to seem desperate.
It was during one of these visits that he'd found two new females in the very well hidden cottage he'd left his fianceé in. He blinks at them, feeling like an intruder and an idiot all at once. They blink back. Then he shrugs and after a brief introduction, ignores them and proceeded to tell Nesta all that had happened at Court that day.
He continued to stay for dinner. The first time, they'd insulted each other until Emerie excused herself, claiming a headache. Nesta realized much later that he'd only given her his undivided attention because he knew what Gwyn was. What had happened to her, and didn't want to frighten her.
It softened some part of her, and she loathed him for it.
Gwyn had already figured this out, and the next time he visits, she greets him with a slam of her shield.
None of them need his pity or coddling.
He gets the message.
All in all, they don't seem to dislike him and he's nothing short of stunned for it.
He gets his ass kicked by the Valkyries more times than he'd like to admit.
Nesta watches him get up from the floor, dusting himself off in the process from the blow Emerie had delivered while they trained, he makes a comment under his breath, like some 500 year old child and damn near pouts.
Nesta realizes that she doesn't hate him.
The revelation is startling enough that she refuses to see him for a week.
Doesn't make eye contact for another.
In less than a year, Beron is dead, his sons along with him and Eris is to be High Lord. One she can respect.
She realizes, with just a little surprise, that Cassian's speech about change taking time was absolute bullshit.
The girls get to keep their swords, obviously, perhaps guessing that if left to the Inner Circle, they would turn to ash just like the House did.
They wouldnt be wrong.
The day after Emerie tells Eris who had made the dagger he held, he leaves it in her nightstand.
A mighty weapon, yes, but it hadn't been Rhysand's to give.
Nesta gives it back to him at his coronation, ignores his shocked look. She can make more, is what she says. I want you to have this, is what she doesn't.
Babe. BABE. this is so lovely?
The way they speak the exact same asshole language! the slow circling each other, which turns in unwillingly, achingly, beginning to understand and save each other!
I’m screaming
Just...he sleeps in the room that’s furthest from her! He doesn’t want to scare Gwyn! 
HE RESPECTS THAT FACT THAT PEICES OF HER MAGIC, EVEN PHYSICAL OBJECTS, INHERENTLY BELONG TO HER!
Truly and utterly, I think this would work. Eris respects power- longs for it, seeks it out, wants it. He needs her to be greater. Not small and beaten down like the IC, not condemned. Ferocious as she can be, to survive what they need to do.
They’re going to play with each other- that courtly, just a lil evil dance they’re both so, so good at.
But underneath it? Growing? real respect. True affection. A team- that Nesta had the chance to choose, that grows stronger as she learns her magic on her own terms.
She wants him armed with her magic! A fiery, tangible sign of family that only her chosen sisters have. I bet he never goes day without that blade by his side.

some headcanons. long and stupid. hope the readmore works lol
some shenko headcanons (sadie shepard specific because every shepard is different of course) because they live rent free in my head and give me serotonin. sadenko would prob be the ship name lol. which i like because it sounds dumb.
low pda couple. very low. most is hold hands in public, and only on off duty time when off normandy. private about kissing around other people.
affectionate in private though, but not constantly in contact because sadie doesn’t like hovering or constant needs for attention and kaidan is cool about respecting boundaries. sadie is spontaneous and passionate though so she’ll randomly give him a really big kiss and it will makes him smile for hours. she puts her whole heart and soul into them.
likes sharing a bed but doesn’t cuddle while sleeping all the time. shepard thinks it’s too hot to have him touching so she’ll shove him over the other side in her sleep and he’ll gradually move back but she doesn’t really mind. kaidan sleeps heavily some nights and sometimes really poorly but she doesn’t mind staying awake with him and giving him a scalp massage for headaches or talking quietly.
kaidan always calls her shepard. likes always. from habit from the SR1 and trying to be discreet and it bled into personal life. she sometimes gets slightly annoyed it’s like he doesn’t actually know her name so she’ll sometimes just call him alenko constantly and he’s like ‘okay what did i do wrong.’ because generally in private she’ll call him kaidan. often alenko on duty though.
shepard probably eventually semi retired from the alliance mostly because she can’t physically handle it. or psychologically for that matter. she’s pretty traumatized in general from everything. the thing that got to her most was dying and missing two years, and then the whole war thing and nearly dying again. she is fucked up beyond belief after the war for ages. takes a while to graduate from bed rest, to wheelchair, to crutches, to walking. kaidan takes care of her really well and is super protective. takes her to physio and does everything around the apartment. cooks, cleans, whatever. they live in anderson’s apartment, when it’s repaired enough because the keepers fix things pretty quickly. but prior to that a hospital on earth.
she also broke lots of things and had burns. the burns healed quickly with artificial skin grafts and medi-gel but the breaks were really bad. heaps of internal bleeding. they were worried she’d die but she pulled through.
kaidan becomes a bit of a worry wart about it all. really sick and stressed because he’s also trying to help with clean up, helping the rest of the normandy crew.
but eventually their life on the citadel becomes pretty comfortable and nice. kaidan remains in the alliance the rest of his life, the only reason he’d ever give it up is shepard and she never wanted him to. once shepard semi retires early, she talks up yoga and dancing for fitness. kaidan is baffled by the dance thing but appreciates it nonetheless.
it’s really easy to go to earth from the citadel with the beam that remains. kaidan goes down all the time to visit his mother who lived through the occupation, and tend to the property the family own but shepard refuses to come unless it’s by ship, because she can’t handle going through the beam. the beam is setup like an airport but like for instaneous travel. she’s forced on select occasions but only with holding his hand as they walk through. she likes kaidan’s mother, is sometimes confused by her, but likes having a mother figure who is very kind to her.
kaidan’s mom wouldnt have picked shepard for kaidan’s life partner (too messy, not quiet and sweet and kind like she always pictured for her boy) but likes shepard because kaidan loves her truly and she can see that. she just wants him to be happy. he never really told her much about shepard after she died and he came home on shore leave after the SR1 was blown up but kaidan’s mom knew something really wrong had happened to kaidan and he wasn’t the same. she couldn’t have guessed that he had an affair with his CO though. kaidan’s dad was ex alliance and she knew the rules through him and would have thought that was a really bad decision on kaidan’s part. kaidan’s dad if he knew would have been really disappointed in his kid. so kaidan never told him and he died without ever really knowing about shepard although he was a little suspicious. kaidan’s mom’s name libba and i always headcanoned as alma i believe, and casimir for his dad.
kaidan’s family is rich. they never hurt for money, so kaidan is the main one who brings income to his and shepard’s household. shepard has a good retirement pension though. so they’re quite comfortable. shepard finds it really weird because she grew up so poor and she remained poor until she climbed to higher ranks in the military. she worked from enlisted to officer which was really hard but all she ever did her teens and 20s was work all the time and volunteer for hard missions and be reckless.
kaidan had a degree in technology so he was able to join up as an officer.
their affair on the first normandy was probably the most passionate time in their relationship and based a lot around sex and this weird magnetism and insane attraction. it wasn’t shallow but they were both resisting a bit developing the emotional attachment because they knew it was wrong to be fraternizing. he is doubly devastated when she died because holding back didn’t mean anything in the end, she still died anyway. after this, his previous friendship with joker which was quite strong, is damaged pretty much irreparably because kaidan blames joker for getting her killed. joker says some unkind things to him at a service/wake and it nearly erupts into violence. joker was just trying to cover up his own guilty feelings but he alludes to their affair and kaidan is furious at him. they build some bridges during the reaper war but things remain a little snide. shepard knows she can’t fix it with words so doesn’t comment. she knows she missed a lot when she was dead she can’t take back or repair.
joker thinks it was wrong they were fraternizing. kaidan feels guilty but doesn’t regret a thing. in fact after shepard died, he wished he had said more.
after she dies he volunteers for high risk missions. spends a lot of time alone and drinks a lot. doesn’t really help. he’s a bit crankier than normal but he gets by. it feels like a secret he carries around that he can’t tell anyone or let go of. it’s not like he can say to someone ‘oh my last girlfriend suffocated in the cold of space and i was right there and couldn’t save her.’ so he doesn’t say much.
they did go on shore leave once before the mission to hunt down geth remnants with the SR1 after the battle of the citadel. it was to a hot sunny planet. they held hands once there and they blushed because they got to act like boyfriend and girlfriend and it felt a little weird but nice. the sun was baking hot, they drank a lot, hung out a bar and had sex mostly. they thought it was a really happy time. they had to pretend when they came back to the normandy that they went to separate locations but they both had a suntan that liara innocently commented on.
kaidan discovers then that shepard smokes and says she really shouldn’t. shepard gives him a really dirty look so he didn’t say anything again for a long time until he worked up the courage, but he doesn’t ride her about it. shepard also drinks a lot. sometimes quite a bit too much which he always worries about. kaidan doesn’t mind a drink and doesn’t even mind getting hammered occasionally but shepard uses it more like a crutch which is what worries him. she only stops drinking later in life, long after the war. she never did it on duty and hid it well. during the reaper war kaidan wanted her to see someone to talk to professionally but she scoffed and refused which caused a fight.
their fights can get a bit nasty. kaidan can get a little bitter in tone and critical and judgmental which makes shepard really angry. shepard for her part never knows the point to stop and can go too far and say hurtful things. they both apologize eventually and makeup. those kind of fights are rare and are usually the result of extreme external stresses.
shepard wants a dog when they live together. due to citadel policies over life support they can’t have one. but they play with the dogs at the orchard his mother keeps which shepard adores.
kaidan would have as many children as shepard wanted but shepard only agrees to two. well one really. the first was an accident but he’s the favorite really because he’s special and looks most like kaidan, but a mix of their personalities. has some anger issues like shepard but is usually fairly quiet. he had special needs growing up, he had nightmares and sensory issues. their second child was mostly planned and also a boy, who’s very good looking, talented with everything he does, but isn’t a strong biotic like his brother which always annoyed him. the older brother happens to be a biotic prodigy, and joins the alliance to be like his parents.
they might have a third child, a daughter, much later in life when everything is quite stable and the two boys are growing up a lot and shepard gets nostalgic. she would be absolutely spoiled by kaidan as his only girl and looks just like shepard. she looks up to shepard as her idol and hero and goes to dance class with her.
shepard has no idea how to be a parent and can be pretty lax about discipline. it was hard to bond with the babies. kaidan is really good at it and found bonding easy, always got up in the night when he could and let shepard sleep and he loved every second. shepard found it exhausting and hard but loved the kids more than anything in the world.

So yes this post is going to be all about one of my oc babies now that i finally drawn him out.
This is Damien. He is fairly young by demon standards but still hundreds of years old. He literally grew up with Kera which normally wouldnt be possible because of the difference in life span but thanks to some future spoilers ill reveal later became possible till she became a adult and his aging went back to how it was before.
He is Keras childhood best friend and For the same spoiler related reasons the first memories he can remember go back to just the first thing he saw was Kera defending him from some mean bullies as a child. And He just lived with her ever since. He did move out when he was a teenager but is still a major factor in Kera's life. He likes to bother her on occasion, whether it be to tease her, or flirt with her, he just also usually there and ready to do some stupid with or to her.
Kera doesnt currently know he is a demon because he even if he doesnt conciously remember it knew to hide it so he isnt ostriczed by society. Also because he was worried that she might hate him or be scared of him. So Kera wont find that out intill he manges to find his way back to the devildom and looks for her.
He may be young but he is fairly powerful. Because while his mom might of just been a average demon his dad was a great dragon demon. His strength in the above form is just a little above your average demon. But in the below below aka his true form he has enough power to basically rival of the brothers.
Tumblr media
Unfortunately he does not know how to access this form at will yet and only manges to shift to this state when he is in a dire state where either he or someone he loves/cares for greatly could die.
He has a brother but doesnt know that yet.
He has tried to think of his past before Kera but isnt exaclty able to quite yet. It just comes up fuzzy and hazzy and gives him a headache so he tries not to think about it to much.
After meeting up with kera again and living in the devildom he will sometimes partially transform when axious or scared. But this form doesnt have a set outfit hell just randomely grow horns unlike in his true form.
And I have so many more details about him but wanted to realise them in story format so i like thats all i can share intill i have that wrote.)
Plus i wanna draw or write some cute shit first so you can get a better grasp on hos personalilty before I go here backstory!

The Spider and The Bee
Gwen Stacy gets a car that turns out to be more than meets the eye.
(Yes, this is a Spider-Verse/Bumblebee crossover fic. Yes, this is solely because Hailee Steinfeld plays both roles. So sue me.)
on AO3
Gwen Stacy gets a car for her sixteenth birthday, and she knows that she really should be grateful.
Her parents meant well, she’s sure. And a lot of kids her age would kill to have a car of their own. But to Gwen, the car seems like more trouble than it’s worth. Finding parking for it is generally more of a hassle than just dealing with the idiosyncrasies of the New York City subway system.
(Plus half the time she’s navigating the city, she’s doing it via web-slinging, but her parents don’t know about that part, and if she has any say in it, they never will.)
The car in question isn’t exactly endearing itself to her, either. It’s an old-fashioned Volkswagen Beetle, the kind that she thought had died off decades ago. It looks well-maintained enough, but even Gwen, who is far from an expert on cars, notices that the radio never works and that it sometimes takes multiple tries to start. Her father lets slip at one point that it was obtained in a bust on a chop shop upstate, and honestly, it doesn’t surprise her. An ignoble origin for an ignoble vehicle.
Oh, and the Volkswagen Beetle is yellow. Not a nice, subtle, pastel yellow, either. It’s a bright yellow, a nauseatingly in-your-face yellow, a shade of yellow that reminds her of bumblebees and kindergarten crayons.
Gwen Stacy likes stealth, when she can get it, and this car is anything but stealth.
But she still uses the car from time to time, when where she wants to go is either hard to get to via public transit or off the map entirely. She lies through her teeth about how much she loves the car and appreciates having it.
She even gives it a name, as is their family tradition. She dubs it Bee.
Gwen tells her parents that the name Bee is because the car is the same shade of yellow as some species of bees, and that it’s also short for Beetle, and she’s not lying when she says it, not exactly.
But Bee (or B) can be short for a lot of other things, too. Like Beware. Or Beneath me. Or Below average.
And there’s also how the car always smells like honey, to the point where Gwen honestly wouldn’t be surprised to find out that there was a beehive hidden away somewhere inside the car.
There’s also that, while spiders can kill bees, sometimes the reverse is possible as well. It fits how Gwen always feels herself tensing up when she enters the car, how she’s not entirely sure if she’s joking when she tells friends that that car will be the death of her.
But much as Gwen dislikes the car, she has to admit that it’s handy to have around sometimes.
There’s one night in particular where she just wants to get away from it all, and she drives and drives until asphalt turns to dirt, until New York City is just a twinkle in the distance. Once she’s sure that she’s well and truly in the middle of nowhere, Gwen gets out of the car, sits on the ground, and gazes up at the stars.
(She feels a pang of loss when she remembers how Peter always had the constellations memorized, how he would have pointed out stars in the sky and named them all until the sun had risen over them. But Peter wasn’t here now, never would be again because of her, and without his help she couldn’t so much as find the Big Dipper.)
It’s nice to have a moment to just sit there and relax. She doesn’t have to think about her life back in New York, about all the pressures placed upon her both as Gwen Stacy and as Spider-Woman. She can just take in the beauty of the stars and the soft, cool breeze that makes the trees gently sway in the wind and forget the rest of the world entirely.
That is, until she glances over at her car and finds that it’s not there, and that some sort of robot had taken its place.
...or rather, as she looks closer and notices the robot’s bright yellow color under the pale light of the moon and stars, that her car had somehow turned itself into some sort of robot.
Gwen stands up immediately and blurts out the first words that come to mind.
“Are you my car?”
She sees the transformation this time, sees the metal twist and turn and shift into place as what had been a robot turned itself back into the Volkswagen Beetle that she had grown to know, if not love.
“You- you can change back, it’s alright.”
It-
No, that doesn’t feel right. Gwen had already half thought of Bee as a “he” even before her personification of the car became so, well, literal.
He changes back into his robotic shape. His form is generally humanoid, with what looked like a face holding big blue eyes that were shining right at her.
Gwen hopes that she was right in thinking that this spot was in the middle of nowhere, hopes that it’s obscure enough that nobody else would see what her car had become.
“Can you understand me?”
Bee makes a strange noise, one that she could swear sounded a bit like a bumblebee’s buzz, and one that she definitely didn’t know how to interpret.
“Nod your head if you can understand me.” Gwen demonstrates, and Bee replies in kind.
Okay, so they have a language in common. That’s good. Just thinking about trying to invent a language that humans and robots could share is enough to give Gwen a bit of a headache.
“Can you talk?”
Bee buzzes at her again. She thinks she knows what that means, but she wants to be sure.
“Shake your head like this if you can’t talk.” Gwen shakes her head, and so does Bee.
That was... less good. It would be a lot easier if they could talk to one another about what was going on rather than just Gwen asking questions and Bee having to gesture out his responses. But then, nothing in Gwen’s life ever seemed to come easy.
“Are there others like you?” she asks.
Bee stays silent and still for a long moment.
“Or do you not know?”
Bee shakes his head without prompting and lets out a soft whirring noise that sounds a bit like a sigh.
Okay. So not only does she not know the big picture here, he doesn’t either. They are both utterly clueless.
They’re so screwed.
“That’s fine, that’s fine!” Gwen’s voice turns oddly high-pitched as she tries to reassure Bee, the palms of her hands raised and facing towards him. “We can work this out. I’ll help you. We can do this.”
Bee stands up, and Gwen realizes for the first time just how tall he is. He definitely couldn’t fit in her family’s tiny garage like that. And she feels small in comparison, tiny compared to this massive robot facing her, and she has a suspicion that Bee feels the same way.
Gwen’s heart races as she gets an idea of how she can prove to him that she’s not as incapable as she appears. It’s a risk, sure. But he had just revealed what had to be his biggest secret to her, and it felt right to reciprocate the gesture.
She doesn’t have her full Spider-Woman suit with her, hadn’t thought it necessary to bring it all the way out to the middle of nowhere.
(That was probably for the best, really; she probably would have left it in the car, and she suspects that anything in the car has been crushed and mutilated beyond recognition by now, though if all she lost because of her giant robot car was the handful of emergency supplies she left in the trunk and the spare outfit and papers she kept in the glove compartment, that would count as a win in her book.)
But she does have her web-shooters, tucked under her sleeves, just in case.
Gwen shoots one web out onto Bee’s left arm, then another onto his right arm. The webs send her soaring upwards, and she leaps with all her power until she and Bee are face-to-face. She does a flip in the air as she descends, balancing on the tips of her toes for a moment before letting her entire feet hit the ground.
She takes a bow at the end of her little performance, though she highly doubts that Bee would understand the meaning of it.
“Bee, meet spider.”
Gwen isn’t sure of the exact meaning behind Bee’s excited whirring and buzzing, but she assumes it was some kind of positive feedback directed her way.
“We should probably head back in a bit, before my dad starts asking too many questions.” Gwen says. “But first, can I take a picture of you? I have some-”
Gwen laughs quietly to herself, partly because this whole situation is completely and utterly absurd, but partly because she knows just a few short months ago she never would have envisioned herself saying what she was about to say next.
“-some friends who might be able to help us. And I think the first step is letting them get a look at you.”
Bee nods, and Gwen dutifully pulls out her cell phone and snaps a photo of her robot car.
Gwen has a thousand more questions that she feels like asking, but she has a feeling that Bee doesn’t know the answers to most of them either. So instead of trying to get more information out of Bee, she just sighs and says, “Bee, let’s head home.”
Bee turns back into a Volkswagen Beetle, and Gwen steps inside, and she doesn’t feel quite as tense upon entering Bee as she usually did, probably because she knows now why the car had always left her feeling vaguely on edge, and it had nothing to do with it being old-fashioned or bright yellow.
They pass the time on the drive back to New York City in silence, because Gwen doesn’t want to risk people seeing her talk to her car and the radio still isn’t working. And Gwen begins to get a pit in her stomach as it dawns on her that she now has two huge secrets to keep instead of just one.
Because her life wasn’t complicated enough before, apparently.

He’d be proud
This is my secret santa present for @maidenofbagend for the Harry Potter Secret Santa! It’s a prongsfoot fanfic that I hope you will enjoy!
“Why must this happen to meeeeeeeeee.”
“Well well, I never thought I’d see you on the bed contemplating life, if I might guess, wondering why you like a certain deer?”
Sirius threw a pillow at the person.
“Shut up Remus. I don’t have a crush on any deer, and it’s a stag not a deer.”
Remus smirked while Sirius’s eyes widened in realisation of his mistake and buried his face in his pillow.
“Oh come on, what is it this time?” Prodded Remus.
“You know, James has done so much for me, taking me in on holidays, pranking with me, being so kind and helpful…” Sirius trailed off.
“I wouldn’t be so quick to give him those last two compliments if I were you.”
“I just,” Sirius sighed, “I want to get him something nice for christmas.”
Remus laughed, it wasn’t often that Sirius let down his cool, smug-like demeanor to show weakness like this, and the fact that this was for his best friend made it even better.
“If it’s just about that I’m sure you can find something great. Remember, it has to come from the heart.” Reminded Remus.
The door flew open as James dramatically walked in, Remus rolled his eyes and Sirius laughed.
“I’m so sorry my dear Sirius but I do quite need Remus for as long as this activity takes.” Declared James.
Remus and Sirius looked at each other, Remus shrugged and got up from where he was sitting on the bed to follow James.
Sirius kept up his cool smirk until the door closed then threw the blankets over himself in an attempt to figure out how to cool his face down.
James on the other hand was in a similar situation, except he now had a reluctant ear for him to talk to.
“Remus I called him ‘dear’!” Wailed James as soon as he stepped out of earshot. Remus wondered why his two best friends were like this. “Remus, I need to get him the best present ever! But I don’t think he even really wants anything!”
Remus sat in a comfy chair in the Gryffindor common with his book that he managed to grab, James spread out on a couch, it was practically midnight and they could talk well without any peepers, as far as they cared at least.
“Remuuuuuuus.” James whined, “What do I get him for christmas?”
Remus’s eye twitched but he didn’t snap.
“I don’t know, why don’t you wrap yourself up in a bow and give him that?” Hinted Remus.
“Best friend status doesn’t carry that far.” James complained. Remus sighed, these two were going to need a lot of pushing to get an inch past ‘best friend status’.
He went back to reading his book before another whine came from the couch.
“Remus, I know me and Sirius are close, and I know I’m irresistible, and you’re helping me but… I think he has a crush on you.”
Remus froze and put his book down, James didn’t know all the nights that Sirius spent ranting about James’s messy hair, dorky glasses, the infuriating dance between him and James that kept them always within arms length, never more never less. However, James had a point, for someone who never knew what was said, who just knew the hours and that Sirius was dying to talk to Remus for some reason, it was quite likely that it could be true. But not in this case.
“Look, I think we both know that’s not true, and even if it were, that wouldn’t stop you from getting him a magnificent christmas present or be stressed about it, so let’s work on one thing at a time okay? Come on, let’s go to bed.”
“You haven’t done your transfiguration homework?” Asked James as he caught sight of Peter’s frantic writing.
“What’s another word for ‘this shows’?” Asked a very stressed Peter.
“Try using ‘this highlights’.” Suggested Remus, taking a bite of the very delicious-looking sandwich.
The four were sitting at the dining table, eating their breakfast and doing their homework and…
“Hey Padfoot, no matter how much you stare at my muffin I’m not giving it to you.” Teased James.
Sirius snapped out of his trance-like state, from staring not at the muffin but at a certain someone Remus observed. He quickly bounced back.
“That muffin? I was just wondering how you never get sick of the same muffin everyday, really, you’re going to turn into a muffin one day!”
“Hah!” Exclaimed James. “You’re saying that but in reality you think my muffin is awesome!” The two burst into laughter.
James leaned over to peep at what Peter was writing.
“Um, I don’t think Minnie wants an essay on changing pizzas into muffins…” Commented James.
“I can’t stand it! I can’t write this! I need food!” He cried.
“I can’t wait until the holidays!” James said, ignoring Peter shovelling food into his mouth. “You guys could come over!” Realised James perking up.
“As much as I’d like to, my mom would freak if I don’t go home.” Answered Sirius with a slightly downed tone.
“Then… send me an owl when you convince her, we could meet up a week before school maybe?”
“Remember, she infiltrates all the owls.” Pointed out Sirius semi-dejectedly.
At that point the bell rang and sent the four scrambling for their books and equipment and imminent doom.
“Cleaning the trophy room is boring.” Declared James.
“Yes but we were 10 minutes late to class.” Pointed out Remus.
“Why did Professor have to split up me and Sirius?” Protested James as he attempted to wipe off the dust on a glass cabinet.
“She had a point, as long as you two were together there’d be no way the detention would be properly carried out.” Remus pointed out.
“Well in that case… Remus I still have no idea what to get him for christmas!!!” James complained, “And not much time to get it!”
“Why not a mirror, so you can feed his big ego?” Suggested Remus.
“A mirror is boring… “
“A phone?”
“What’s a phone…”
“It’s something muggles use to communicate with each other.”
“But that’s a muggle thing…” James’s eyes suddenly lit up, as if struck by a lightning bolt of inspiration. “You’re brilliant Remus! If I get him a mirror that we can use to communicate then there’s no way his mom can take it from him right? All I have to do is make it so that the mirror reflects what the other mirror should be reflecting! And audio of course… You’re a genius!”
“Well when am I not?”
Would a genius push their two best friends, who clearly want to get together, off a cliff? Yes, yes they would. Should he? Yes, yes he should. Can he? No, unfortunately there are not enough cliffs in Hogwarts that are convenient to push people off, and there aren’t any books in Azkaban. Would a genius push together, not just anyone, but Sirius Black and James Potter? The two biggest idiots and pranksters on the planet? No. Definitely not. But he shall do it anyway.
A slight trip and push landed Sirius a spot in James’s arms. It didn't end there though, nothing the marauders did ended at just that, no, James caught him like a fairy tale and spun him around. ‘Where did the rose in James’s mouth come from?’ Questioned Remus in his head. They threw their heads up in a flourish and ended on a showy pose. James looked down for a split second only the other marauders could see from their front row seats and proceeded to drop his best friend on the floor of the great hall, for now their fellow students can go back eating their dinner in peace.
James blinked in surprise then profusely apologised. Sirius made a big show of spinning his head around dizzily.
“Remus, I think I have a headache, take me to Madame Pomfrey.” Sirius then grabbed onto Remus’s hand and pulled him along out of the hall.
“What are you-”
“Remus I can't take it…” Sirius sighed. “Not that close, not that intimate just not that, you know?” Sirius looked at Remus for confirmation, a longing in his eyes.
“Then tell him already for goodness sake! It’s not my place to confess for you, you know?” Remus said.
“I would but…” Sirius looked away, “I don't think he'll say yes.”
“On what basis?” Remus asked, raising an eyebrow.
“Remus, it's so obvious, he likes you.” Sirius stated sorrowfully.
Remus thought back to the time where James basically begged him to help woo Sirius, the time that Remus had to listen to an hour of ranting about Sirius’s amazing comebacks and so on, these two were crazy similar yet surprisingly dense to no one but the other.
“Look Sirius, even if he does for some insane reason have a crush on me, I’d turn him down.” Remus deadpanned. Sirius stared at him.
“What?”
“Well yeah, I don't have any feelings for James and there is someone right beside me who’d be perfect for him.” Remus nudged him with his elbow playfully.
“Thanks.” The two started walking back to the great hall. “You know I’m thinking a scrapbook…”
As they ate dinner Remus thought of possible date ideas, library? They would never. Picnic? Not grand enough. Astronomy tower? Too cramped. Now Remus was starting to reconsider the idea of pushing the two off a cliff, maybe into the lake would be more feasible. Wait, this year they can finally go to Hogsmeade! And Remus knows for a fact that the two have the signatures ready so…
“So, The trip to Hogsmeade is coming up soon, where do you two want to go first?” Asked Remus.
“I don’t know, oh! They said that they have a joke shop! Let’s all go and get materials!” Exclaimed James.
“What about the Three Broomsticks? We can all go-” Started Sirius.
“Actually,” Remus cut in, swinging his arm onto Peter’s shoulder. “Me and Peter have plans for Hogsmeade.” Said Remus calmly.
“We do?” Asked Peter blankly.
“Remember? We have some christmas shopping to do, alone.” Emphasized Remus. James and Sirius shared a mildly suspicious look.
“Better get us amazing presents!” Teased Sirius.
James and Sirius walked into the Three Broomsticks in awe, Hogsmeade was truly magical, even to those who had grew up in it. They snagged a comfy little table, they saw some of their fellow students but when they looked like they might come over they seemed to change their minds. The two were good at keeping up appearances but on the inside both were freaking out, it was so obvious that this was meant to be a cute little date for the two but they had danced this ‘best friend’ dance for so long that it was hard to step out.
“So, how is life?” Asked Sirius in a joking way, putting his face to rest on top of his palm, propping himself up.
“Well,” Began James, mimicking Sirius’s pose. “How is the most handsome person in the world?” The pickup line had been set in place, ready for Sirius to ping-pong it back but…
“Amazing, thanks for asking.” Replied Sirius coolly, making a mental note to try and quell the butterflies in his stomach.
They both laughed for a bit before discussing about a bit of light quidditch then lapsing into awkward silence.
“So… Remus and Peter went christmas shopping huh?”
“Yeah… On that note, have you gotten my gift yet?”
James had a look of terror on his face before replying: “All done and wrapped in time for christmas.” He boasted gleefully. “What about you?”
“You really think you’d be done before me? I finished ages ago.” Sirius inwardly panicked, he had started the scrapbook but it was only half-done.
“That sure is convincing.” James pointed out before bursting into laughter with Sirius.
“Are you sure about this Remus?” Asked Peter. The two of them were under James’s very handy invisibility cloak, Remus was watching James and Sirius walk into the restaurant. Remus finally explained everything to Peter (who was legitimately
unaware of everything that was happening) and made sure their unofficial date was a success. He managed to hand all the other students notes saying to keep away from the two, and was monitoring them.
“Yes. Not really but if I don’t do this now I will have to live more of this nonsense before christmas official comes.”
“Is that their new strawberry cheesecake crumpet?!” Asked Peter, dashing out, pulling off their invisibility cloak off. It was quite dark so not many noticed it but Sirius saw him and immediately made a beeline for him, almost spilling with news. James also got up and started going towards him and Remus panicked.
Remus grabbed Sirius’s hand and with some quick maneuvering managed to get it in James’s, carrying with the momentum a twirl.
“Take Sirius, dance with him, kiss him and shut him up please.” Pleaded Remus.
James looked into Sirius’s grey eyes, Sirius into James’s hazel. The bulk of the restaurant was watching. The moment stretched out and instead of dropping Sirius like the incident before (he is never going to live that down) James pulled Sirius up to connect their lips.
The entire restaurant was clapping and hooting and many stood up to give a standing ovation. There were fireworks in the background and this was truly where the both of them belonged, in the middle of a crowd right next to each other.
James hefted Sirius to his feet and they both had huge arching smiles that haven’t been seen for forever. Remus joined them as they started towards the door.
“Did something happen?” Asked Peter, sprinting to catch up with them.
The Marauders laughed and headed back towards the big castle of Hogwarts.
“Come on.” Whined James. “Your parents won’t allow you to be away on christmas, neither will yours or yours or mine!” Gesturing to all the Marauders. “And I want to see your faces when you  open my presents!”
“He holds a valid point.” Noted Sirius.
“Just Marauder presents though, I am opening all of my other presents on christmas day itself.” Finalised Remus.
The other three nodded with so much enthusiasm that Remus couldn’t help to laugh.
They started opening their presents, shouting with glee.
“A mirror?” Said Sirius quizzically, then immediately started posing in front of it.
“Nope! That’s what you think but actually, you see in this mirror what you are supposed to be seeing in the other.” Explained James with pride.
“We can see each other even when my mother doesn’t want me to!” Squealed Sirius, grabbing James and pulling him into a kiss, which, has been a regular occurrence ever since that date.
“Open mine now.” Said Sirius with excitement, passing the parcel over.
“Is this a… scrapbook?” Asked James.
“Yep! I added as many photos as I could, especially the embarrassing ones!” They spent all night looking through the book, even when the Head Prefect told them that some people needed to sleep. The four of them went home that year with the biggest smiles ever and constantly laughing, two of them with a newfound relationship and happiness.
“I remember that, you gave me and James ‘portable fans’.”
“Yep, a very good decision if you ask me.”
“What was it you said? Oh yes. ‘The next time either of you say ‘I’m so hot’ there is a fan right there.’ Very sassy.”
The two looked wistfully out of Sirius’s window.
“Do you think Harry is going to have a christmas as good as that?”
“Well if Molly gets ahold of him I guarantee you he will, and as long as you are around I’m sure he will also be happy, Sirius.” Sirius smiled sadly.
“I miss him.”
“There isn’t a soul who doesn’t.”
“Death Eaters?”
“They don’t have souls.” The two laughed slightly, not nearly as full or as carefree as they were when they were thirteen but when you are both scarred, scared and in the middle of a war, that is good enough.
“Well I’ve got to go, Nymphadora is expecting me soon.”
“Doesn’t she hate people calling her that?”
“Your point?”
“James would be proud.” Remus gave Sirius a tired smile.
Sirius sat in his room, it was decorated with red and gold, quidditch posters and so on, yes. James would be proud.

A Billion Years Away - Prologue
Slowly Drifting To You
***
I’m slowly drifting to you
The stars and the planets are calling me
A billion years away from you
I’m on my way, I’m on…
I’m on…
***
Somewhere.
Painburningbetrayalwhywecouldhave…
We…
Could…
Have…
“Michael!” he called out, before clutching at his chest in agony, and slumping back onto… onto…
… a soft bed?
What?
The man glanced down at his conspicuously bare chest, but apart from from a small, thin scar where he had been stabbed, there was no sign of any injury.
What had happened? The last thing he remembered was…
We would have helped you if you had asked.
He felt a scowl appear on his face, but he dismissed the feeling. Of course she wouldn’t have helped him. Of course she wouldn’t have given up her vaunted ideals. Of course none of it would have gone right.
And, of course, Georgiou would have taken the opportunity, any opportunity, to ruin his plans, destroy the trust he’d built between himself and this other Michael, and then finally to run him through.
In the back, he thought, scowling, of course in the back.
Stupid. Stupid. Stupid. A whole year of planning, wasted. A whole year of fighting, torture, uncertainty mixed with… with…
No, he admonished himself, forcing himself to remain calm. It’s in the past. All in the past. Michael’s face flashed in front of him, but he pushed it away. We’re alive. We move forward. That’s the only way to go from here.
It was far easier to think that than to focus on just how much he had lost in his last gamble. Shaking his head slightly, he looked around the room, trying to ascertain just where he was and what was happening.
It looked… nice.
The walls were wood-panel, real wood too if his eyes weren’t lying to him. There were windows, though the view outside was blocked by opaque, faintly blue curtains, diffusing pale sunlight from outside. There were wicker chairs dotted about, and a library. It was warm, but not unpleasantly so.
He sat up, wincing. His chest still hurt, but he was fine otherwise. He seemed to have been dressed in a simple pair of thin pyjama trousers made from loose-fitting cotton, which gave no indication as to what sort of people he’d ended up with (except that they were probably humanoid, or at least used to working with humanoids). He stood up and looked around, trying to see if anything of his own attire had survived, but there was no sign.
That could be a good thing, if they didn’t see the insignia, he thought. If I ended up in Federation space, maybe I could get away with playing the same trick twice.
That was, of course, assuming he’d ended up in that universe. Or, for that matter, any universe he’d recognise. His bedclothes certainly didn’t seem like Starfleet standard. It was entirely possible, given multiverse theory and all the associated headaches, that he’d ended up somewhere completely different.
Would be just my luck, he thought, scowling.
Before he could consider any of this further, however, there was a soft knock at the door.
“Hello?” a female-sounding voice asked softly. “Are you awake?”
“Come in,” Lorca said, straightening subconsciously.
A woman entered: she was human, or more accurately looked human. She had pale, almost alabaster skin, strawberry blonde hair that she wore in a ponytail, and striking blue eyes. She wore a simple white robe that draped down to her ankles, and soft white slippers.
“Hello,” she said quietly, inclining her head at him. “My name is Laurien: I’m one of the nurses here. I have been taking care of you.”
“Nice to meet you. I’m Gabriel Lorca,” he said, giving her his best winning smile. Best to avoid any specifics until he had a few of his own. “And, uh, I have no idea where I am.”
“This planet is called Erlös,” she said, the pronunciation somewhat strained. “We are on the outermost edge of known space here, as we prefer.” She paused, choosing not to elaborate on whoever ‘we’ referred to. “I know you have no reason to believe me…”
She was right there, he had no reason whatsoever. But he decided to do something he would never have done before his stint in the Federation’s Starfleet: give her the benefit of the doubt. He resisted the urge to snort derisively. Goin’ soft in your old age, Gabriel.
“I’m here and alive,” he said, trying to sound grateful as opposed to sardonic. “And, truth be told, I figure if I’m here and alive I’m probably not going to cease being the latter at your hands any time soon. You had plenty of opportunities to do me an injustice.”
That, of course, was discounting the potential for this to be an elaborate trap, or for them to want to pump him for information somehow. But this felt too genuine, too honest.
Definitely going soft, some voice that sounded like Katrina Cornwell said in his head.
“Indeed,” Laurien said quietly. She tilted her head. “Forgive me, but… we’re a little unsure where you come from.” She paused. “Are you… are you Federation?”
They know about the Federation, Lorca thought, smiling. That made things a little easier.
“I am,” he said with a nod. “Captain of the Federation Starship D- Starship Buran.” Be careful, Gabriel. “Although…” he added, affecting a mournful tone, “actually, I don’t even know what the state of the Buran is.”
Lying prick, the Kat-voice said. He ignored it.
“I have never heard of it,” Laurien said, inclining her head. “But I will speak with Dannik. He will contact the Federation for you.”
“Thank you,” Lorca said with a nod.
“In the meantime,” Laurien continued, “would you care for some food? We do not serve meals that you will be familiar with as standard, but I can request access to the replicator for you.”
Lorca nodded slowly. He was hungry, in point of fact. “I wouldn’t mind some grilled chicken, if your synthesiser can manage it.”
“Of course,” Laurien said, smiling. “I will return shortly.”
As she left, Lorca sat down, thoughts running through his mind. He was alive, surprisingly.
Best to remain Captain of the Buran until I get a clearer picture, he thought. He tried to remember what he could about his counterpart – the smile, the confidence, the love of fortune cookies were all things they’d apparently shared. But I’m supposed to be dead. So I need to explain why I’m not.
Well, that would be easy. He hadn’t the foggiest idea what had happened to his counterpart, after all. Most likely the man had been incinerated, but despite their differences, he was still Lorca. Maybe he had survived, somehow.
He sighed, and began thinking – he only hoped questions about his origin wouldn’t be too far gone.
There’s one piece of hope though, he thought. If Laurien knew about Starfleet, and we’re in the Federation, the war with the Klingons can’t have gone that badly.
He held onto that. Silver linings and all.

A Shifting World Chapter 4: Goodbyes and Departures
First Chapter
<– Previous
Work Summary: Things have been going great since Hiccup and Toothless have defeated the Red Death. He has his father’s approval, a group of friends his own age, and is leading the integration of dragons and the Vikings of Berk. When neighboring tribes call together a meeting to discuss rumors of Vikings riding dragons, however, Stoick decides to keep their alliance with dragons under wraps. Hiccup must decide whether he should listen to his father or seek to teach the other Vikings of the archipelago the truths about dragons.
AO3
Rating: T
Characters: Hiccup, Toothless, Astrid, Stoick, Fishlegs, Ruffnut, Tuffnut, Snotlout
Pairings: Minor Hiccup x Astrid
Tumblr media
Chapter Summary: Hiccup makes a promise to his best friend. Meanwhile, the twins are the twins and Mildew is Mildew.
Chapter Warnings: Discussions of death and murder, food mention
“You guys are all so lucky,” Tuffnut said as he shook his head at the nearest ship. “You all get to go to the Thing and we don’t.”
“I’d kill for the opportunity to go.” The scariest thing about that statement, Hiccup decided, was that Ruffnut sounded like she genuinely meant it. “The Thing is the prime pranking opportunity, and none of you are going to take advantage of it!”
“We’ll keep that in mind, I promise,” Hiccup said. He found himself regretting that the twins wouldn’t be coming along, even if it cut down the risk of other tribes declaring war on Berk due to missing beards and painted helmets.
Still, with a whole village to terrorize and no one else in their friend group around to entertain them or hold them back, Hiccup was sure that the missed opportunity would soon be a long distant regret.
Luckily enough for Hiccup, if not for Berk, it turned out that many of his friends were coming along, too. Astrid’s mother, Phlegma, was among the Berk Council, as was Spitelout, Snotlout’s father; both had decided their children ought to come along and get a better understanding of the other tribes. Fishlegs, while he had a mother aboard their ship as a sailor, had been chosen to come because Stoick believed he could have potential as a future ambassador of Berk.
Beyond them, all of the Berk Council were going as well. Well, all except for one, who was heading this way with a frown.
Hiccup was suddenly very aware that the twins had seemed to have vanished into thin air. They must’ve pranked Gobber somewhat recently, then.
“Ah, Toothless, there you are!” Gobber said as he wagged the wooden hand cutout attached to his prosthetic arm attachment as he prepared a lecture. “Remember that you aren’t going on this trip, you sneaky reptile.”
Toothless grumbled in irritation and glanced over at Hiccup as if asking him to reverse the decision.
“Sorry, bud,” he said instead, and gave Toothless an apologetic smile. “You know that Dad would kill me if I smuggled you aboard.” And anyways, even if he did go through with showing the other tribes that dragons weren’t inherently violent and were actually amazing, intelligent beings who were willing to live in peace if humans were, he wanted Toothless here, safe, if things went wrong. Again.
Toothless snorted and shook his head, his pupils narrowing slightly.
“Don’t worry, bud, it won’t be for forever.” If Gobber wasn’t there, Hiccup would have told him he’d try and make it so he could go to the next one, too. However, Gobber was still there, listening. He wouldn’t exactly be the sort that would keep quiet if Hiccup started making plans to go against his father’s and chief’s wishes behind his back.
“Yes,” Toothless said with a disgruntled huff.  
Hiccup could understand why. He wasn’t too happy about having to leave his best friend either.
Anything else he had to say, however, was swallowed up by a loud yell several feet away.
“I’m telling you, Stoick, this must be a sign from the gods to give up this unholy alliance with the beasts.” Hiccup had heard that voice enough times since after the Battle of the Red Death that he frowned and prepared to sigh with exasperation even before properly recognizing its owner.
Just as there were dragons too affected by the years of conflict to want to move onto Berk, there were Vikings who resisted the peace with the dragons with their heels dug into the ground. But where dragons were happy enough to avoid Berk, Mildew had decided to make his “opinion” everyone’s problem.
And especially Hiccup’s and Stoick’s.
“If the other tribes catch wind of us ‘befriending’ these monsters–” Mildew swung his staff straight toward a nearby Monstrous Nightmare who’d just dropped off a pallet of supply crates tied into groups with fishnet, ignoring their filthy look “–then we might as well kiss our lives goodbye!”
Stoick, half turned toward Mildew and half toward the freshly delivered stack of supplies, rubbed at his head in a way that told Hiccup that he was sensing an oncoming headache. “You’ve already brought this up. For sixteen Gripe Days in a row.”
“And you wouldn’t listen!” Hiccup winced as the vibrations of the resulting slam of the staff end into the wooden dock made their way up his prosthesis. “But now that the other tribes have come knocking, maybe you’ll finally care!”
Stoick cast Mildew a glare so sharp Hiccup almost expected to result in Mildew bursting into flames without a dragon’s intervention. Unfortunately for all of Berk, it didn’t. “Enough, Mildew. I am sticking to the answer I’ve given you every time before. We are not driving the dragons away.”
Mildew’s voice dropped just a fraction, and turned even more bitter and accusing. “Is it something you’re willing to bet the whole village’s lives on?”
“I assure you,” Stoick said, his voice unyielding, “I have the village’s best interests on my mind. And, like it or not, that includes yours.”
“Besides,” Gobber said, walking from beside Hiccup up to Mildew, “is right before Stoick’s about to leave to ensure we continue living in peace really the time to bring this up? Especially since he heard it before?”
Mildew snorted, sounding for all the world like a particularly stubborn sheep not unlike the one that often followed him around.
“I thought so. Now I suggest you go back and tend to your cabbages, unless you want to help load up the ship.” Gobber used his hand prosthesis to gesture at the supplies.
With one last scowl and “Don’t tell me I didn’t warn you,” Mildew stormed off the docks, staff tapping each wooden board along the way.
“Thanks, Gobber,” Stoick said, sounding more relieved than he’d been since the announcement of the Thing.
Gobber shrugged. “Eh, I’ll just add it to list of stuff you’ll owe me for while you’re gone.” He shuddered overdramatically. “Including the Gripe Days you’ll be missing. Not looking forward to those, I’m telling you!”
Stoick laughed and shook his head. “It makes dealing with the other chiefs seem like a picnic.”
Hiccup and Toothless walked toward them. “Can’t you do something about his attitude problem?”
Stoick frowned and sighed. “He gets under my skin as much as yours, son, but I’m afraid I can’t.”
“What does he have against them, anyways?” He leaned over to pat Toothless’s side, to calm himself and his dragon. “They hardly attacked his farm.” Cabbage, to no one’s surprise, was hardly a dragon’s preferred delicacy. In fact, they seemed to avoid them more often than most other crops.
Gobber and Stoick shared a solemn look.
“You see, years ago he set his farm up there,” Gobber said, sounding like he was getting into a long story that had no happy ending. “No one particularly minded, given he was always that… well, Mildewy, for the lack of a better word.” He shrugged. “And he married a woman who was just as grumpy as he was, and they had kids who took after the both of them.”
If Gobber and Stoick hadn’t looked so serious, Hiccup would’ve shuddered at the thought of a family of Mildews.
“They all seemed happy, though, and they kept mostly to themselves, so everything was fine.” Stoick shook his head. “And then, one day, his wife and children were picking up supplies in town when a dragon raid hit.”
“It was the worst in decades.” Gobber bit his lip. “Our best could hardly keep up defending the town from the dragons.” He sighed and shook his head. “By the time dawn came and they retreated, so many had died, even those who hadn’t fought.”
“Including Mildew’s family.” Hiccup never thought he’d feel anything regarding sympathy for the man, but then again he’d always summed his irritability up to stubbornness beyond the usual Viking levels.
“And that wasn’t the end of it.” Stoick’s tone caused Hiccup to brace himself. “Mildew somehow got it into his head that we let them die intentionally because no one liked them.”
“Well, no one did like them,” Gobber jumped in with a conciliatory tone. “But no one hated them that much,” he added when Stoick glared at him.
“Everyone kind of understood that it was mostly the grief talking, and things kind of died down after a while.” Stoick stroked his beard. “And eventually he ended up taking another wife.”
“And that’s when a dragon came to his farm and burnt it to a crisp.” Gobber shook his head. “Mildew escaped. Not his wife.”
“And after he got over that, he married another woman. She was from the Northlander Tribe, I believe.” He glanced at Gobber as if to confirm.
Gobber nodded. “Aye. And I bet you can get what happened to her.”
Hiccup’s stomach clenched. “I’m guessing not a peaceful death by old age.”
“After that, he became obsessed with killing dragons.” Stoick stroked his beard, lost in thought.
“Not himself, of course.” Gobber shrugged a single shoulder. “Let’s just say he chose to keep a farm far from the raids for a reason. But he bought dragon parts off those who did kill them. Bones, scales, heads, the lot.”
Toothless made a nervous sound, and Hiccup reached over to scratch him under the ears in an attempt at reassurance. “Don’t worry, bud. No one’s getting your head.”
“He was always advocating for crueler ways of killing them off entirely, not just driving them off our land for good.” Stoick frowned. “In any case, any intention he had of making his peace with them died with his wives and children.”
“But now we can make sure that no one else has to go through that.” Hiccup knew that losing family to dragons hurt; he’d lost his own mother to a dragon when he was a baby, and that had definitely stung after finding out that it was the Red Death’s fault. Still, he couldn’t imagine preferring being at war with dragons to the peace they had now over it.
“I know, and I wouldn’t change it for the world.” Stoick placed a hand on Hiccup’s shoulder, being careful not to knock him over. “However, he’s been bitter since the day he was born, and circumstances only made him worse. When you’re chief, you’ll have to deal with worse than the likes of him.”
Hiccup resisted the urge to roll his eyes. “Encouraging pep talk, Dad.”
Stoick shook his head and laughed, and the somber tone the conversation had taken seemed to disperse like that. “Next time, I’ll let it surprise you.” He glanced around the docks and the ship, scanning everything. “Well, it looks to me like we’re just about ready to set out here. You get on the ship and I’ll get the loose ends tied up.” With that, he walked off.
Hiccup turned back to Toothless. “Well, I guess it’s time to say goodbye, bud.”
Toothless warbled in a very unenthusiastic tone.
“I promise I’ll be back, with a whole new bunch of stories to tell you.” A gathering of Viking chiefs was certainly never boring, as Stoick had often been inclined to share. “I’m sure you will too, since the twins are staying behind.”
At that, Toothless snorted and rolled his eyes.
Hiccup couldn’t help but smile at that. “You never know, you might have too much fun watching them get in trouble to even notice I’m gone.”
Toothless snorted and shook his head. He didn’t sound particularly convinced.
“It’s just for a few weeks, I promise.” Hiccup held out an open hand. Toothless stared at it and hesitated, then leaned his head over until his nose met Hiccup’s palm.  “Take care while I’m gone.” He let himself give his best friend a crooked, mischievous smile and wagged a finger at him in warning. “And no helping Ruff and Tuff with their pranks, alright?”
Toothless seemed to raise the draconic equivalent of an eyebrow, but nodded. “Yes.”
With that, Hiccup forced himself up the gangplank and looked for a place to sit. It was going to be a long journey.
So this is probably the last chapter I’m posting to Tumblr before the Log Off Protest. While the next chapter will likely be published on AO3 around the same time next week, I won’t crosspost it to Tumblr until the protest is over and I log back in. After that, crossposting should continue as usual. Thank you!

Para || A Glimpse || 
Who: Charice, Trey Watkins 
Where: Charice’s House, Manhattan 
When: Saturday Evening 
What: We get an update on Charice’s life through a glimpse of her Saturday night
Charice was always working, always taking care of the kids, always taking care of her friends but tonight she had no one to take care of but herself. The kids were spending the weekend with Dylan and she had finished up a few meetings and emails early last night so she cracked open a bottle of wine, picked up her phone and made a call. Dating was never going to be her forte. She was never going to be great at it. She was a full time working divorced mother of 5 kids and she was just 28. She didnt have time for a man. At least that’s what she told herself when Trey Watkins walked into her life. He was a 6’2 tall drink of something model who she met during fashion week. She took one look at him and knew he was trouble. And after giving in to some shameless flirting and a kiss or two in Paris, she figured she would never see him again. And then he sent flowers to her office. And when she didnt respond, he sent more flowers until she had no choice than to tell him that she was a busy woman. She had fun with him but she had kids and a job and an ex husband. She didnt have time for a boy toy. He’d made it clear right off the bat that he wasnt a boy toy and he wasnt looking for some play thing either. He wanted pure, unadulterated love. Something that Charice had forgotten that she also wanted. So she gave him a chance. They went on a date and that date turned into a second date, which turned into a 7th date which eventually turned into them dating for 6 months. He was different than she was used to. He was kind and gentle and so funny she nearly peed whenever he made her laugh. And he respected that she put her kids and family before anything else. She was nervous to introduce her kids to a man when all they had known was Dylan. That was who they had seen her love and be with but with Trey it was different. She was nervous about how the girls would react. Especially Mariayah who still had a mean streak. So she was waiting for the right time to tell them that she was dating and falling for a man that wasnt Dylan. She would wait until a weekend when they were out of town and Trey would come over and spend the days with her, either in bed, on the floor, or wherever they landed after they got handsy. She thought things would slow down after dating for so long but nothing was slowing down, not yet anyways. And even better, her friends liked him. Santana wouldnt stop talking about how hot he was and Brittany would turn red whenever Charice would share the scandelous things they would do together. Even Chris was drooling whenever she brought him around. So everything was perfect. Except now, it wasnt. Because as much as she tried to forget that two people she loved the most had shut her out, she just couldnt. Trey came over and in an hour they were stripped, out of breath and sweating on her living room floor. Charice licked her lips and laughed, her eyes closed. “Am I a bad mom? My kids play on this floor.” “We’ll clean it up,” Trey smirked, sitting up and leaning against the couch. He gently caressed her bare leg and kissed the top of her knee. “You want some wine?” “Water,” she asked with a nod and watched him get up, not a stitch of clothes on him. She smiled in content, his muscular back glowing from the lights of the fireplace they were laying in front of. He looked just as good coming back as he did walking away, his confidence oozing off of him as he sat back down and handed her a bottle of water. He started to rub her feet, a small groan coming out of her mouth. “God, you treat me so right.” “Damn right,” he teased. “So wait, what was it you were texting me about yesterday. Your cousin was back in town?” Another groan. “Please,” she sucked her teeth. “I dont even know where to begin.” He nodded. “Well you told me about her dating your brother in law, which I’m pretty sure is incest.” “Shut up.” “And you told me that he was cheating on his fiancee with her and she disappeared but that was  it.” Charice nodded, taking a sip of her water. “That’s pretty much it. Except she came back. She was in Vegas or something with her ex-girlfriend and has been there for a year. I’ve been trying to talk to her, to reach out to her, anything. Cedes was like my damn sister. I loved her more than anything and she just dropped me like I was a bad habit… and then she had the nerve to come back and reach out to me for forgivenss. You believe that shit?” “Yeah… I do.” “What?” “Charice, you said her leaving was heartbreaking right?” Charice nodded. “So why wouldnt her being back be the opposite of that? Why wouldnt it be something that makes you happy? She left, yeah. And it was a bad bet but wasnt it you that told me you were over all the drama?” Charice say up, removing her feet out of his hands and cocked her head to the side. “This isnt drama Trey. They cut us all off because they’re fucking selfish. Look you dont know Sam and Cedes like I do. Their shit is nuclear and it sucks everyone in even if their lives are fine. And then we try and fix it and get our lives fucked up too. I’m over it. And I’m over them leaving and coming back and acting like shit’s clear now. Half of me is okay that she left. Like them being together is all kinds of bad news. They’re just the worst for each other.” Trey nodded, not meaning to upset her. He licked his lips and pulled her back over to him. “Come here, looking all mean and small. I’m not trying to step on your toes or nothing, okay?  I get it. Family is hard and they’re assholes sometimes but what do we have without family.” “More money, less headaches, less drama,” Charice listed, giggling as he kissed her neck. “No dummy, you’re supposed to say nothing,” he teased. “We need them, even if they are a mess.” Charice shook her head. “It’s her fault I have all these crazy ass white people in my family now,” she said, trying to hide her smile. “You love ‘em…. Nah but speaking of family… ” “Oh no,” she said, knowing where this was going and grabbing her blanket to wrap it around her. “Charice.” “I know where you’re going and you know where I stand.” “No, I know where I stand. I know how I feel about you. I know that I sneak around like a high schooler just to see you because you think the kids arent ready but Charice I feel like I only have half of you. I told you when we first started that I’m not in this for games and some ass every once in a while… no matter how good the ass is… but I want all of you. Even the parts you try to hide.” He reached over and tucked a stray curl out of her face. “You dont mean that,” she shrugged. “Men always say they want all of it. All of this but in reality all of my bullshit is insane. It’s not just kids it’s so much more.” “And I want it.” “No you dont.” “Hey,” he said, placing his hands on her shoulders and forcing her to look at him. “I’m not him. I’m not your ex husband who’s gonna hurt you and lie to you and hide from you. Look, you’re not the only one in unfamiliar waters right now. I’m not used to this. I’m not used to falling for someone this fast but what I do know is that I want all of you. If you really think the kids arent ready then fine, I’ll back off but I need you to think about the fact that it might not be the kids that arent ready for someone new.” “What?” she frowned. “I’ve moved on with my life. I’m ready for someone new.” “Yeah in your life but maybe not in your kids life. Look the last thing i want is to step on any toes. Talk to your ex and see how you feel about introducing significant others to the kids. Then think about what that might look like. Really think about it because once I’m in there’s no going back for me.” Charice sighed, searching his brown eyes and kissed his lips. “You’re too fine to be this smart.” “Rude,” he shook his head. “I went to school for engineering okay? I just happened to get discovered making some extra cash on the side. It’s not my fault.” “Ya damn right,” she nodded. “It’s your parents fault. And God. God did this.” Trey smiled, his perfect white teeth and dimples making Charice swoon. “Stop looking at me like that woman.” “Like what?” “Like you wanna sit on my-” She cut him off with a kiss, smiling against his lips as he kissed her back. “Bedroom. Now.”   She got up, dropping her blanket and practically ran to the back of the house. “Yes ma’am,” he muttered to himself, getting up and following after her.

A female friend whom I thought was doing okay cos she wasn't contacting me for quite sometime, turned out, recently also got into a lot of problems.
You see with us girls, yes sometimes when we tell close ones what happen, we don't have the intention of shaming our partners, but more of needing someone as a listening ear to Drown our sorrows and maybe if the other has smth to share about their problems with their other half, we sometimes find comfort in that ours is not so bad as compared to theirs. Well, once again this girlf of mine found out smth again. Why do guys always just pacifiy us so we stop the overreacting drama quarrels and give us empty promises and we stupidly time after time get taken in and in the end, the thing repeats. I still stick to what I believe. Once a cheater, forever a cheater. Once a liar, forever a liar. 🤷🏻‍♀️ but I still lent a listening ear, gave her my opinions and I told her, don't say you're okay when you're not. Cos I did that and nope, I was FAR FROM OKAY.
& I was abit agitated when she told me, it's okay she has to face being stuck with him cos she started it and all he ever says is 'its a guy thing'. HELLO. WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY HIM SAYING YOU STARTED IT. the dramas? The quarrels?the spot checks , the confrontations? Come on. If he didn't do so many things behind your back, if not for his actions, if not for your own intuition/instinct that smth is not quite right, if he didn't do anything wrong ,even if you spot check, you wouldnt find a thing. But you did, time and time again. Who made you have so much insecurities? Who made you this toxic partner you are today? Who. He did. He had a choice. He chose to do those things in disregard of your feelings and now he says it's a guy thing? I say it's bullshit. He made a choice. I didn't ask her to leave him tho. It's her choice. But she said she wants to leave so badly because she can't take it anymore.
But I told her, you know you're different when you don't tear as much as you did for that person anymore, when you know certain things that mattered to you a lot then, didn't matter to you so much now. It's not that we don't love anymore, it's just after all that has happened and that person put us thru, our hearts are just broken and ya, it's gonna take a longggg time to heal. But even when it heals, it already bares a scar.
Why do people torment each other like that? Why can't people just treasure what they have and be satisfied? If you respect your partner, you wouldnt hurt your partner. Simple. Why would you wanna hurt someone whom you claim you love? Unless you didn't really love them as much as you think you did. The irony of this whole shit. Contradicting eh.
Wokayy time to go to bed. Been feeling off lately. Headache and and nausea is kicking in real bad.

Wtf Is going on with car insurance companies?
Last company auto renewed my policy but i wasnt aware of this as had moved address, so to cancel it I had to pay 133 as id already started going with someone else on top of the initial deposit amount i had to pay for both companies which has took a large chunk of my money for what i feel was no fault of mine, then a month later im getting letters from my current insurance asking me to pay an extra 90 plus 25 admin fee or my policy will be cancelled AGAIN meaning a cancellation fee because when i said i had held my licence for 8 years they recon its 7 ive held it for and this makes my policy go up, thing is i got my licence on 22/08/2003 and took my poliocy out on the 19/08/2011 so they're making out when i took out the policy i only had licence for 7 years for sake of 2 days who the hell wouldnt have said 8 to that? it just seems theyre trying everything now days trawling through all your stuff finding the smallest detail just so they can get money off you or cancellation fees cos that way they're not risking anything on insurance but still gettin money off you for cancellation fees its a joke and I can really see why people think there's no point having insurance anymore. Plus I have never made a claim since I started driving but because others have in the country im being punished with premiums going up. Will it just end up where everyone who simply cant afford it thinks sod it and drives round with no insurance? surely that would make things even worse but all these cancellation fees if it happens again that I have to cancel that will be 550 ive paid in the last 2 months and still my car wont have insurance????? arghhhhh its doing my head in surely something can be done to help the customers a little more as insurance was always a headache but this is becoming ridiculous now. ..""

Right now I am insured with Allstate. I am under an Allstate plan called the gold protection plan in which I will be eligible for a new car if there is an accident. I think I am paying a liitle too much for car insurance. I have a 2004 Honda civic and a 2006 Honda civic. Both cars has full coverage. Does a two year old car need full coverage.

Is comprehensive coverage enough for me or is it a good idea to keep the full coverage. Any recommendation.

How to obtain depreciation from insurance company?
I had a roof claim at the end of the year for $45K. Ultimately the roof failed and damaged the interior of the home as well. The insurance company sent an initial check for $38K, and there is $7K in depreciation as a hold back. Once the work was completed I sent the insurance company a final invoice from the contractor for $44K. The invoice listed all of the work done and a grand total. The adjust is asking for line item detail around the charges. My contractor is telling me this is a ridiculous request and won't provide. So now I am sitting here with an adjuster who won't budge on their stance and a contractor who won't help. Are there any hard and fast rules on how to obtain the depreciation funds. In the couple of claims prior to this over the years, all I had to turn in was a generic invoice. I am at a loss and need to get those funds to close this deal out. I have full replacement value.""

""I gave a urine sample for life insurance, want two more samples on different days. Why??
I gave a urine and blood sample about a month ago for life insurance. I received a call yesterday from the company that takes performs the physical and takes the samples...they said my insurance company wants to more urine samples on two different days. Why is that?? It has me really worried and I can't call the insurance office until tomorrow to find out why. I would assume that they had messed up the sample if they just wanted one more but they want two on two different days. :/ I informed them that I take birth control and sometimes take Ibuprofen. I don't use any other drugs or smoke and very rarely drink alcohol. I also have not been having sex (only with 2 people) and have been tested for STD's and visit the gynocologist every year and am always fine. I didn't receive anything from my insurance company about my blood tests which means those didn't show anything (would only send to me if something wrong). Any ideas about what's up with the urine sample requests???
CAR INSURANCE QUESTION?
Hello, I was in a car accident 3 weeks ago today in Massachusetts but live in NH. The other guy swerved in my lane on the highway, although their were no witnesses and we still have no word on who was at fault. I was driving my boyfriends car which was no insured, although I have comprehensive coverage on mine. My insurance (gieco) will pay a $1000 pf my medical and have put a claim in for my boyfriends car. I was wondering if anyone knew if they would cover his car? As it looks like the guy who swerved in my lane doesnt have insurance either, as NH doesn't require car insurance. If anyone knows if it possible please let me know. An adjuster has already considered it a total loss. Thanks!""

My car was wrecked and the insurance company paid to have it fixed. Now they have found something they missed?
After paying out around 12,000 to fix my car (body damage only, but new car so everything came from factory) we found out there is something else that needs to be fixed and because the car is so new and they don't make parts for it, whole transmission needs to be replaced, even though nothing it actually wrong with it. Now insurance wants to total my car. I have gap coverage and want to know my options if i would like to keep my car and have transmission fixed myself. At first insurance told me they would pay off car, I keep it and get settlement money, then they told me no settlement money, but I would get to keep car with salvage title and it would be paid off, now they are saying they r trying to make sure I can keep it at minimal cost to me . The lien holder says if the insurance pays it off, they (lien holder) will not allow me to keep the car. If the insurance pays for it, isn't it their option to allow me to keep the car or not? What are my options?""

We pay so much in car insurance and have yet to have a wreck or anything. Not to mention the ridiculous amount for car tags.

New driver trying to get insurance... Quote for 1750 in November... Why has it gone up to 4400 now?
Hello all, I'm 17 years old (male) and passed my test earlier this month. In November I just thought I'd get a rough figure for insuring a 1.2L Corsa (2001)... I got a quote from Quinn Direct for 1750 (I put in the details as if I had already passed etc). So yes, more than the car is worth, but my parents and grandparents were willing to help me out with it, and I was pleased. So, Christmas has been and I thought I'd get looking... I went back on to Quinn Direct and now for a 1L Corsa (2001)... The quote is 4450!! That is ridiculous! It's true, I'm a 17 year old male... Bla bla... But 4450 for a 1 Litre car? All my friends are with Quinn Direct, and their 1.3L Fiesta's etc are only 1900 to insure! Gocompare and all those don't give me much better quotes either. I've also done the Pass Plus. Can anyone shed some light on this please? Thanks!""
