chemistry - grace clinton
grace clinton x reader
Tumblr media Tumblr media
description: in which you and your best friend are always caught up in dating rumours
warnings: really not any?
a/n: kicking off pride month with gracie girl!!! hello, lovely!! love love love this request, too cute 🥺🥺 thank you so much for the love ❤️❤️❤️ enjoy! happy pride month to all of you!!
⋆ ★ ⋆ ★ ⋆ ★ ⋆ ★ ⋆
if there was something to know about you and your best friend, grace, the two of you were two peas in a pod. the two of you were quite literally attached at the hip, and you have been ever since you were 15.
and if you were to tell those cheeky 15 year olds that you were now dating, they would’ve said you were crazy.
you and grace were slight opposites and that’s what made the two of you so balanced out. the two of you were extremely cheeky and always getting caught into mischief.
yet, you could be reserved at times, needing a little extra time to open up to people, but grace always made it easier.
grace helped you out of your shell from a young age, and a lot of your teammates found that you calmed grace down a lot when she got over excited.
your relationship was pure, it just worked, it was fun and exciting yet heartfelt and genuine.
you both played together for england and followed grace around to different clubs. it was rare to see the two of you apart.
back in 2022, the two of you moved in together as you both played for manchester united, and during this time, you by very high demand made a tiktok account to document your daily life.
they were regular videos, some silly ones, serious ones, you didn’t think much of it until they blew up because of yours and grace’s videos.
videos of the two of you giggling on the couch playing with filters, or going to training together. people couldn’t deny the chemistry between the two of you.
you tried to act like the shipping comments didn’t affect you but they did. you harboured a crush on grace but pushed it aside knowing that the comments made her uncomfortable, as she would never look you in the eye when you would bring them up.
but what you didn’t know was that the comments overwhelmed grace because she thought she was being too obvious.
if people on the internet were catching on to her massive crush, she would surely be caught out by you. but of course, the two of you were clueless.
in 2023, you and grace both got loaned to tottenham and that’s when things really kicked off.
“hey, everyone! today i’m doing a get ready with me for game day” you smile at your phone propped up on the mirror of your bathroom.
you were chatting mindlessly, explaining who the match was against, how you were feeling, what was going to happen in the process.
these were your most popular videos, and you loved to make them to communicate with the fans.
“i’m feeling good today, hopefully i get to start, i had a niggle in my hip that was bothering me for the last two weeks and haven’t been able to play” you pout slightly at the camera, fixing up your hair the way you liked it for the game.
suddenly, grace comes in the room, sending the camera a cheeky grin as her arms wrapped around your middle, chin resting on your shoulder.
“gracie girl is here” you chuckle, growing louder when grace playfully pinches your waist with a quick kiss to your cheek.
she stares at you affectionately through the mirror, ready for the game and clearly waiting for you. she fixes a stray hair away from your forehead with her arms still wrapped around you tightly.
“why don’t you tell everyone why you have a niggle in your hip?” she laughs, you glare at her through the mirror, your hard gaze meeting with her amused one.
“no” you grit, trying to take grace’s arms off you but she was stronger, “yes” she quips, a shit eating grin evident on her face.
“grace, no, stop it” you warn, grace shakes her head, really wanting you to say the real reason you’ve been out for two weeks.
“fine, i’ll say it” she grins, your eyes widen, you turn in her arms, your hand clasping over her mouth as you glare at her, letting out a squeal when grace licks the palm of your hand. you could be a germaphobe at times.
“fuck, clinton, that’s gross!” you grimace, washing your hands immediately, clearly a bad idea because grace grabs your phone and makes a run for it.
you let out a heavy sigh, fighting a smile at the corner of your lips hearing grace’s little excited giggles.
“(y/n/n) hurt her hip because i stole her water bottle and she chased me in the rain and fell right on the pitch” she laughs, hearing you groaning from the bathroom.
“but don’t worry guys, i carried her everywhere and kissed her better” she says cheekily.
you laugh as grace comes back to you, pressing her cheek to yours as she held the phone close to your faces, both of you making silly faces.
you cut the video and get dressed into your kit, making grace film your finished look which really caught the attention of the fans.
“okay guys, final outfit, literally the spurs kit” you do a little spin and grace lets out a whistle, “so beautiful” she says adoringly, your cheeks slowly turning pink before you scrambled to get the phone off grace.

gracex(y/n)fann: we love silly girlfriends
↳ (y/n)lover13: girlfriends? i thought they were best friends?
↳ ilovewoso: they are best friends
↳ wosofan99: they’re definitely dating, the way grace looks at her 😩
gracesfangirl: anyone else think they’re flirting orrr?
↳ (y/n)ismywife: they’re flirting so hard i feel so lonely
↳ graciestar: you and me both😞
you and grace continued to make videos and the popularity grew more and more on your account.
so much so, later on when you and grace made the senior lioness team, they always paired you up for media days.
“hello, i’m (y/n) (y/l/n)” grace says cheekily, you hold back a laugh, “and i’m grace clinton” you say back matching her energy. grace glances at you quickly with a smile before turning back to the camera.
“today, we are doing a food challenge, which will be interesting because gracie is a picky eater” you chuckle, receiving immediate protests from grace,
“nah, you’re picky too!” she accuses, pointing her finger at you sternly before gently booping the tip of your nose.
you scrunch your nose up slightly at the action, grace can’t help but blush a little at your soft gaze, quickly snapping out of it knowing you were on camera.
“okay, i’m a little picky but grace is a lot more picky than me” you shrug, looking down at the covered plate in front of the two of you.
“okay, whatever” grace scoffs teasingly, bumping your hip with hers. “so, we will be doing rock, paper scissors and one of us will be blindfolded, and then we guess the food” grace explains.
your eyes were trained on her the entire time she spoke, and when she turned to see you already looking at her, her heart sped up faster than her playing a full 90 minutes.
“let’s go!” you smile, turning to grace to start rock, paper, scissors. and of course, grace won.
she snickered as she gestured you to spin around, gently tying the blindfold over your eyes and spinning you around by your shoulders after she was done.
“is it too tight?” she asks with a hint of worry, you mindlessly wave out your hands, feeling for grace’s face, both of you giggling when you cupped her cheeks.
“nah, i’m good, hurry up!” you pinch her cheek, making her roll her eyes and face the camera.
“so impatient” she mouths, smiling before taking your hands off her face, squeezing them quickly before taking the closh off the plate.
and when it was opened, there were two little bowls, one with ice cream and one with hot sauce. clearly, the media team wanted you both to be evil, but grace couldn’t do that to you.
she spoons the ice cream into your mouth and you smile, “too easy, ice cream” you giggle, grace wiping off the remainder on the corner on your mouth, licking off the excess.
“well done” she praises, squeezing your bicep gently before moving to take off your blindfold after the media team presented a new plate.
the next time, you won and grace had a go at being blindfolded, and you felt a little cheeky with the options. one being wasabi and the other being peanut butter.
you scooped up the teenist amount of wasabi and instantly felt bad as it made way to her mouth. she immediately grimaced and coughed, you handed her water immediately and giggled when grace assured she was okay.
“that was disgusting” she coughs as you take the blindfold off, you wrap your arms around her neck and pull her down into a tight hug, uttering apologies as you kissed her cheek repeatedly.
grace flushed completely, her hand pressed firmly into the small of your back.
“i can’t believe i did that” you say against her cheek, holding her close with an apologetic smile, grace chuckles as she held you, pulling away slightly to press her own kiss against your cheek that had you flushed as well.
both of you pulled away with a clear of your throats, continuing the video with shy glances at each other. and like clockwork, the video. blew. up.

graceswife: okay there is no way these two aren’t married with three children
↳ (y/n)swife: they have grandkids too, there’s no way they’re friends
ilovewoso: …i’m questioning everything i know
↳ (y/n)lover13: …so am i
graceand(y/n): i don’t know if i want to be (y/n) or grace
wosofan: grace, can you fight?
you both didn’t expect the amount of attention you were getting. gaining more and more followers, as well as an increasing amount of dm’s and comments questioning your’s and grace’s relationship.
on a free saturday, you were sitting on the couch in your shared flat, scrolling through endless comments about you and grace. you were up earlier than her, as grace liked to sleep in.
you looked worried as you scrolled, breathing a little heavily with a pit in your stomach growing. maybe you were coming on too strong? grace was probably so uncomfortable, you should have known better.
you couldn’t help the tears pricking in your eyes, it was overwhelming. you loved grace, you really did, and you felt occasionally that she might feel the same but the uncertainty grew larger through the years.
you heard the door of grace’s room open and you hurriedly wiped your tears, grace heard the sniffles and rushed over to where you were, worry flooding over her features.
“love?” grace says cautiously, heart breaking as you turned to her with a tearful smile, “morning” you choke out, grace moves around the couch to sit next to you, her hand grabbing yours and interlocking them.
“love, what’s wrong?” grace asks softly, her free hand wiping a stray tear escaping your eye. you take a deep, shaky breath, subconsciously moving closer to the girl you loved so much.
“the comments on the video we made is just a lot to handle” you breathe out, fighting back the tears seeing grace’s concerned face.
“the ones about us?” grace clarifies, you nod, your hand squeezing hers a little tighter. “you don’t like them?” grace asks cautiously.
“i just think i’d like for them to be true” you say after a moment of silence, bracing for the impact of rejection from your best friend.
“we can make them true” grace says without hesitation, her demeanour changing completely knowing you felt the same.
to say you froze was an understatement, your eyes meeting with grace made your body feel like it was on fire.
“i’ve always wanted that, babe” grace says earnestly, smiling brightly at your look of relief. “i have too” you say shyly, hearing grace tutt next to you.
“and you didn’t say anything? tsk” she mocks, her face stoic for a split second before you both broke out in a fit of giggles.
“you didn’t say anything either” you roll your eyes teasingly, “i didn’t say it verbally, no, physically, yes” she says charmingly, moving forward to place a kiss on your cheek.
she smiled feeling it grow warm under her lips, pulling away with a satisfied smirk. but what she didn’t expect was you leaning in for a kiss on her cheek, grace moving her head so your lips met with hers gently.
you pulled away slight with a surprised expression but leaned forward again until your lips just ghosted over hers, teasing her with a smile.
“so annoying” she joked, her hand making its way to your cheek and pulling you in for a kiss.
you giggle against her lips and she bites your bottom one warningly, both of you heavy breathing as grace lowered your back to meet with the couch, both of you kissing breathlessly in a languid, yet loving kiss.
when grace pulled away, she took in your appearance, kiss swollen lips with enlarged pupils, admiring how beautiful you looked, knowing you were doing the same with her.
both of your eyes twinkled. you both knew the wait was worth it to get to this moment.
“hey guys, today we are doing a get ready with me for camp for the lionesses” you smile at the camera, hearing a snicker coming from beside you.
“i have a very special guest for this one” you say cheekily, glancing over at grace with a knowing smile, holding out your hand for her.
she took it instantly, letting you drag her into the frame, grace with a bright smile that made your heart feel warm.
“my special guest is my girlfriend” you grin up at her, letting grace peck your lips quickly knowing it would go crazy on the internet.
“before we start, baby, i want to answer a question i saw in your comments” grace says pleadingly.
you giggle and nod, your girlfriend squeezes your hips gratefully as she kissed your cheek.
“to answer your questions, yes i can fight, and i will” she says with a hint of anger in her words, wrapping you up in a tight hug from behind as she kissed your cheek repeatedly, deja vu from the first video that gained a lot of attention.
your hands rest on grace’s with a loving smile before you helped each other get ready, answering some questions as you go along for fun.
when the video got posted, everyone flooded the video with messages of support, feeling the pure love emanating from the both of you.

🧚🏻‍♀️ hello wanderer! i see you've stumbled into my neck of the woods and found this note i've left.
it has taken me a while to write this, so if you read it all the way through, i thank you in advance.
i am taking a semi-hiatus from writing.
that being said, fics for gaza has priority. i still have an aot fic to be posted, and i am still accepting fics for gaza requests - more info here!
i've been going through a lot recently... mental health and working through trauma, coming to terms with and accepting my identity and speaking out about it to my safe circle of people (happy pride month!!! 🩷💛💙) i am so mentally drained, and i haven't been this sad in years.
on top of all that, engagement just sucks.
everyone says "write for yourself, don't write for engagement" and i do, to an extent, write for myself, but my entire blog has always been centered around taking requests and writing those for you.
i used to feel very encouraged to write, but i don't feel that anymore. i hardly get interactions from mutuals at this point. it goes both ways, i know. i have a hard time reaching out, i feel like i am always a bother, or that no one actually cares to hear from me, or that my asks "get lost" sometimes.
why do i feel like a bother on my own blog?
anyway, i'll still be here, reblogging and simping if anyone wants to connect. i am simply just stepping down from writing for a bit.
i hope i'll continue to hear from my draken anon 🤍 you have no idea how happy you make me.
i am truly am grateful for you all and hopefully someday soon the spark will return. <3
if you made it this far, here. have a cookie for your time. 🍪
xoxo, mack

It’s November, and around my house that means I’m getting into gear with all of my Holiday and Winter Cards! This time of year is always rough for me, but one thing that always makes me happy are Christmas and Winter cards. This is my 9th year doing this, which is hard to believe, but I’m crazy excited to be able to continue the tradition this year, and I'm doing so with something new!
The cards are in the process of being made entirely by me, as always, but this year I'm also trying my hand at watercolors so every card will be unique with a bit of art that is hopefully not horrible adorning the front hehe
I'm still making them, but the rainbow trees in the banner are a preview of the art that will be featured on most of the cards and then I will add my personalized messages and send them filled with all of my love and good vibes! I can't do that without some important information from YOU though! So...
WANT A CARD? HURRAY! Here's how it works.
As stated above, I'm still working on the cards and they might not be sent out in time for Christmas, but they will all be mailed, I promise! haha
Through the rest of the month of November and maybe a little into December, I’ll gather addresses and finish the cards so I can start writing out the cards ASAP. Life happens, so the cards might not all make it to you before the new year, but I’m going to try my best to make it happen! Even if my goal of mailing them in early December doesn’t happen, you’ll definitely get a card at some point if you claim one.
HERE’S WHAT I NEED FROM YOU.
I’ll be collecting addresses using this google form. It’s pretty straight forward, but on the form I will be asking for:
Your address (I will mail them internationally). PLEASE write it out exactly as you would on an envelope, line breaks and all! I’ve had some cards get returned to me in the past because I guessed where the line breaks should be, and I guessed incorrectly, so to avoid that I’d love it if you could tell me where the line breaks are
The name you want me to use for the address as well as the name you would like me to write inside the card. For many, the name will be the same, but for others, it will be different, so to account for that, I’ll have an option for both.
Your tumblr URL. This is just so I can reach out to you if there are any issues.
Your preference in card. I will mostly be making rainbow pride trees affixed to Christmas or winter themed paper, but in case you need your cards to be holiday and rainbow free, I am going to be attempting some winter tree cards as well.
And that’s it! There aren’t any other stipulations or requirements. We don’t need to be mutuals, you don’t even need to be following me or in the fandom tbh. You just need to want a homemade card from me to hopefully bring you some cheer!
Even if you aren’t interested in a card for yourself, please reblog this post and help me spread the word. I would greatly appreciate it!
Thank you, and Happy November!

if you'll have me, i want you ! PART ONE ! seok matthew
Tumblr media
suggestive, angst, exes to lovers, mdni, late matthew birthday special !! (happy late matthew day)
synopsis ; after a horrible rainstorm leaves you forced to pay a visit to your ex boyfriend's house on his birthday, you begin to fall in love with him all over again
contains ; angstyyy, crying, hugging, slight possessiveness, l-bombs, no smut in this part but ending is suggestive ! future parts will include smut
wc ; 1.5k
based on 'i want you' by stephen sanchez !
it'd been a while since you'd last found yourself stood before seok matthew's front door.
you'd broken up three months ago. went separate ways after a petty little fight between the two of you got blown completely out of proportion.
you had never expected that you'd be back here. especially not on his birthday. but you really had to other choice. unless you wanted to go out into the thunder storm and walk the five kilometers it was to get back home.
you wish you could have messaged him in advance. that could have worked if the two of you hadn't blocked each other on everything.
you prayed that he wasn't out celebrating his birthday. or that he hadn't found himself a new girlfriend. that would be extremely awkward.
it was fine. all you were going to do was knock, ask for a ride home and then continue ignoring him and his existence as you had been for the past few months.
you gulped away your pride as you raised your fisted hand to knock on the cold wooden door.
the sounds of footsteps nearing made your heartbeat quicken.
the latch clicked as the door pulled open, matthew's soft brown eyes meeting yours. you'd heard the phrase 'eyes wide as saucers' before in your lifetime. but you were sure you'd never seen it until now.
"y/n?" he sounded shocked. and rightfully so. it wasn't everyday you were showing up at your ex boyfriend's house.
"hey." you said softly, chewing on the inside of your cheek as you stared down at the floor.
"is something up?" he asked concerningly, tilting his head to the side. you nodded your head and glanced up at him.
"i'm so sorry for coming here so unannounced on your birthday like this." you apologised, "i just . . . my bus to get home was cancelled, and i have no other way to get back. your house was the only one i knew in the area, so i was wondering if i could maybe get a ride?" you mumbled, fiddling with your sleeves and looking into his pitiful eyes hopefully.
"i see." he said biting his lower lip in thought, "i would love to give you a ride, but my car's at the mechanic right now." he responded, before opening his door wider for you, "but if you want, you can come in and stay until the storm calms down?"
your eyes widened, "are you sure?"
matthew smiled at you.
"yeah, of course. come in."
you walked inside, feeling your heart flutter. you hadn't been inside of his house in what felt like years. it was much nicer inside. the warmth of the heater bringing solace to your freezing body.
"did you eat today?" he asked.
"h-huh?"
"you usually never ate until after work. horrible habit."
your face heated up. "i didn't eat." you mumbled, slightly surprised that he'd remembered something like that.
but then again, this was seok matthew. he remembered everything about you.
"i cooked your favourite." he said gently, leaning down so his eyes were at level with yours. you felt yourself going completely crazy whenever he did that.
"you . . . did?"
a small smile found its way onto his lips as he nodded, gesturing for you to follow him into the kitchen. you slowly trailed behind his as you
your head was now going insane. so much has happened between the past two minutes, you were sure he was about to say or do something else that would make you explode.
he pushed a bowl of food before you as you sat at the barstool before he marble countertop. awkwardness quickly encased the both of you as you quickly raked your brain for small talk.
"did you . . . do anything for your birthday today?" you asked.
matthew smiled sadly and shook his head.
"hanbin tried to throw a party for me. but i wasn't interested."
"oh. why not?"
"i don't know. i guess i just stopped liking that stuff." he said vaguely.
that wasn't right. matthew loved parties, he loved his friends, and he loved going out. he wouldn't just stop liking those things out of nowhere.
you looked back up from your bowl, matthew was now on his phone.
"looks like the storm isn't calming down until like, three in the morning. do you want to stay here tonight?"
your eyes widened at the sudden offer. he quickly became flustered, cheeks reddening as he stumbled over his words, "i'll sleep the couch, though."
"are you sure? i don't want to be a bother to you."
"it's not like you have another option, right?" he chuckled dryly, leaning against the counterspace beside you, "and it'd be nice to have some company."
your heart dropped a little at the sight of him so lonely. how could you possible decline, knowing he was all alone on his birthday?
"i'm taking the couch." you said.
he smiled and nodded, "okay."
and then it went quiet again. any chatter sucked away into the air as the two of you stared at each other in the epitome of awkwardness. you silently studied his soft features. his beautiful eyes, his dark brown hair, the little beauty mark that rested just beside his eye.
you'd yearned for him horribly.
his stupid laugh, his sweet voice, his pretty face, everything. it still felt surreal to you that you were sat here, in his kitchen, eating his homecooked food, face-to-face with him.
"you're still working at the cafe?" he asked quietly, noticing the uniform you still had on.
"yeah, i am."
"i thought you quit? your manager was a piece of shit."
"i did. but after we broke up, i couldn't find any other work. so i went back."
he furrowed his eyebrows.
"i'm sorry you have to deal with that."
you smiled and shook your head.
"it's not your fault. i shouldn't have gone back in the first place, that was on me."
"it is my fault. i broke a promise." he said.
the room fell silent once more as matthew chewed on his lower lip. you didn't knew what to do or how to respond. so you sat there dumbly, staring into the bitter abyss that was his eyes.
"i swore to your parents that i would always be there for you."
your face began to heat up at his words. you gulped and shook your head, "that was a while ago, matthew, it doesn't matter anymore-"
"yes it does. it all matters. i was a shit boyfriend. i wasn't there for you at all."
you reached out for his hand that was sat by itself on the countertop, putting your own on top of it.
"you were an amazing boyfriend."
he blinked in surprise, looking at you in such a way that would surely make you melt at any second.
he captured your hand in his, holding it tightly.
"i've missed you." he whispered, reaching over to tuck away a strand of stray hair that had fallen before your face. tears prickling at your eyes when he smiled warmly at you.
your bottom lip quivered as large droplets raced down your cheeks, "m-missed you as well."
matthew's face struggled to hold the grin he kept on for you as he opened his arms wide for you. you stood up from your seat and threw yourself around him in a hug, hiccupping and shaking as warm tears escaped your eyes, soaking into the fabric of his shirt when you buried your head in his shoulder. he put a gentle hand on the back of your head comfortingly, beginning to cry himself as he embraced after so long.
"shh, i'm here now." he whispered, "don't cry."
you sniffled as he cupped your face and made you look up at him, wiping at your cheek with his thumb.
"you're crying too, idiot." you croaked.
he laughed at you, his beautiful crying face full of love as he neared you to whisper into your ear.
"i love you." his arms found your waist yet again as he blinked back more tears, "and i'm so sorry for everything."
"you're an idiot." you mumbled, standing up onto your tip-toes, keening further into him as your fingers pulled themselves away from the warmth of your long pink sweater to wipe away his tears in return.
matthew just chuckled and nodded.
"i am, aren't i?" he sighed dramatically as his body fell loose against you.
you closed your eyes, lashes binding together through your tears as you nodded your head, "but you're my idiot."
"all yours." he whispered in response.
"and i'm your idiot." you muttered, heavy lidded, already drunken in lust although he'd done almost nothing now.
"all mine." he confirmed,
"had the prettiest girl in the world in front of me and i showed no appreciation for it at all." he brought his hand up, squishing both of your cheeks together as he looked into your eyes, "can i make up for it?"
TO BE CONTINUED . . .

Tu sais je vais t’aimer ( Bullfrog x g/n reader )
It’s been a while since I made a story unrelated to requests … I just felt like doing something a little different since I recently noticed that we have reached 110 followers , which is just - 
Broo !! :,0
I really wanted to take the opportunity to thank you all so much for being so supportive of my little headcanons and stories for Bullfrog and Rayman , you’re all really amazing and kind and you’ve really made me feel like home here on Tumblr …
I may be a bit too busy and ( most of all ) shy to interact much with everyone , but I really do appreciate you guys … thank you so much , I mean it :,) ❤️
Now then , onto the actual story , I’ve recently stumbled upon this beautiful French song , and at some point a random inspiration for a Bullfrog fic hit me : 
what if the reader decided to surprise their beloved frog boy by singing him this song ? Maybe for a special occasion , like the one year anniversary of the relationship ? 
It just seemed too wholesome of a concept for me to let go , so I ended up writing this :,) 
I also added a translation in English for the lyrics , because it’s just so cute and it melted my heart when I read it ;//; 
Hope this turned out okay ! 
Details : use of g/n reader who likes to sing and can play piano ; 
established relationship ; 
no warnings needed 
Tumblr media
It had been a very long , tiresome day for Bullfrog …
The last mission the Warden had assigned him and his companions had been filled with complications , and this could easily be guessed by his bruises and ripped clothes .
Even as someone who took pride in his job , he yearned for nothing more than to find a quiet place to rest … hopefully in the arms of his beloved .
He also hadn’t forgotten about what a special time this was , so before going back to you he had managed to pass by a flower shop and buy a bouquet of your favorite flowers : the thought of your smile in front of his gift was the one thing that was keeping him from dropping on the ground for sheer exhaustion .
< I’m back mon amour ! Sorry for being late , this was a much more difficult task than I anticipated … > 
Bullfrog stopped , slightly alarmed by the fact that you weren’t behind the door to greet him like usual :
you were always so happy to see him whenever he got back , so it was quite strange …
He closed the door as quietly as possible and begun to walk , attentive to every single sound to avoid anything sneaking by him .
If something had happened to you , he was more than ready to rescue you and defend you from any possible threat , exhausted or not …
But it was then that he heard it : someone was playing the piano in the living room , and when he finally reached it his eyes widened …
You were there , as beautiful as ever , and as soon as your eyes met you smiled softly at him and started to sing …
< Tu sais je vais t'aimer même sans ta présence 
( You know I'm going to love you even without your presence ) 
Je vais t'aimer même sans espérance 
( I will love you even without hope )
Je vais t'aimer tous les jours de ma vie 🎶 
( I will love you all the days of my life ) > 
Bullfrog wanted to say so many things in that very moment , and yet he was so overwhelmed by joy that he couldn’t bring himself to speak …
He just walked forward , sitting on a chair next to you while listening to the sound of your voice .
< Dans mes poèmes, je t'écrirai c'est toi que j'aime …
( In my poems I will write to you it is you that I love ) 
C'est toi que j'aimerai tous les jours de ma vie🎶 
( It's you that I would love all the days of my life ) > 
He looked up at you in awe , nodding his head to the beat , and as soon as the song ended and your hands left the piano you finally turned around once more to look at your boyfriend .
< Happy anniversary , love ~ 
God , you won’t believe how many months it took to learn how to pronounce everything correctly … buut , I just really wanted to do something special for you , you know ? I hope I didn’t butcher too many words … 
Also sorry for being so quiet before , I didn’t mean to scare you , but I wanted to surprise you and - > 
Worry immediately filled your eyes when you took a better look and noticed the bruises on his face , but Bullfrog shook his head , caressing your cheek with one hand …
< Don’t you think about that my dear , it’s nothing … besides , receiving something so beautiful from you as a gift was enough to make it all better . > 
He smiled at you tenderly , watching you leave a kiss on his palm .
< Thank you , y/n … je t'aime tellement … ~ > 
You let out a little chuckle , unable to stop your cheeks from turning red in front of his loving words …
< I love you too , Bullfrog … I’m really lucky to have you , you know ? > 
Before you could even realize it , the distance between your faces diminished more and more , until eventually your lips met into a much anticipated and needed kiss .
You closed your eyes , letting out a sigh while holding Bullfrog in your arms , and you could feel all the tension in his body instantly melt to your touch as he gladly leaned into it …
Eventually you both pulled away , staring into each other’s eyes and enjoying that precious moment of intimacy .
< We should probably get you patched up now , sweetie … those bruises look painful . > 
< Alright alright , but before that , here … > 
< *gasp* - you remembered my favorite flowers ! Thank you Bullfrog , these look beautiful ! > 
< Don’t mention it mon cher , it’s not quite as good as your gift , but … > 
< Are you kidding ? I love them ! We should put them in some water before they start wilting … > 
As the two of you carried on with your conversations , glad to finally be together , the sun started to disappear behind the tall skyscrapers of the city … some of the nightly neon lights were already starting to illuminate the crowded streets .
It had certainly been a one year anniversary to remember .

welcome to the UK, where world leading healthcare is free at the point of use! hopefully you don't need it though. underfunding and shitty management of the public health sector by non clinicians mean you could wait up to six months for an urgent referral. hope all your organs are in good working order because you could die waiting if they're not :) and god forbid you should need to see a GP or a practice nurse for something more minor - the demand highly outweighs the supply and you'll be engaging in the hunger games to maybe get a 10 minute telephone appointment in September 2026 :) mental health suffering? well you are shit out of luck my friend - again, demand far outweighs supply - everything has been cut down to less than the absolute bare minimum - and the criteria for services is sky high now. make a cup of tea and take the crisis line number. you'll be fine right?
welcome to the UK, one of the richest economies in the world! how is it then that living standards are as low as they were in the 1970s, what with the old cossie lives and wages that were already laughably meagre now completely out of sync with how fucking expensive everything is?? i know you worked hard to get your education and onto your graduate scheme and did everything society asked of you to make it in life, but things are different now so here's your mouldy room in a shared house where the rent is a million pounds a month and lol what disposable income aren't you just happy to have a roof of your head?? stop going to Costa every morning for your soy triple shot vanilla latte you entitled little shit! it's not like we've had 14 years of complete mismanagement of the economy or anything! ps. aren't you so tired of hearing that it's all your fault?
welcome to the UK, where we have a welfare system designed to help people.in need, I.e. those out of work and those too sick to work! but good luck accessing that too. and if you want to try - LMFAO! oh honey no one LIKES working. but all this pretending to be too unwell to work ain't fooling anyone! come on mate drop that defeatist attitude and get on indeed.com. none of your conditions are even real. stop using your multiple sclerosis/depression/long covid/terminal cancer as an excuse. fucking sickness culture in this country. the high rates of mental illness especially have no obvious cause at all do they?
welcome to the UK, a tiny country that prides itself on tolerance and has historically seen great benefits to the economy and culturally from immigration! but god forbid we make this an easy place to live for trans people! this Woke has gone too far! and oh my GOD aren't all these refugees SO annoying?! they clearly just want to come here for the free healthcare (you know that non existent thing) and to get welfare benefits (you know asylum seekers aren't entitled to benefits apart from a pittance allowance from the home office right?) and they're absolutely not braving a life threatening journey to escape horrific conditions and persecution in their own country. but whatever. not our problem. off to Rwanda with you. human rights are stupid lmao. empathy? compassion? never heard of her.
welcome to the UK, where we support genocide and saying certain things in opposition of it is actually fucking illegal. i wish i was kidding.
welcome to the UK, where nothing works and everyone is sad.
welcome to the UK. god i fucking hate it here.
british tumblr - even if you don't think it will make a difference, even if you recognise there is just a lesser of two evils here, even if you don't trust any of them, even if you're fucked off and burnt out, i am BEGGING you to vote to get these absolute cretins out of power. we cannot have another five years under tory rule. there will be nothing left.

HAPPY PRIDE FROM THE IDW SONIC SHOWDOWN! Made it just in time before pride finishes here in the UK, but pride lasts all year around anyway. However you celebrate and whatever flags you use to represent yourselves, I hope you have a good one Here's a little doodle featuring characters from IDW and a few other Sonic comics who have some degree of queer to them, either in the comics, word of god or popular headcanons. I wanted to include more (shout out to Mighty's gay dad and his dinosaur bf from StC!), but ran out of time and space A little more info about each character, in case anyone's curious:
From top left: Tekno the Canary - From Fleetway Sonic the Comic, a character widely embraced by the queer community. In a conclusion to StC written by series writer Nigel Kitching and released on StC:Online, Tekno is revealed to be in a relationship and have a child with Amy Rose. As of this year, Tekno's creator Lew Stringer gave his blessing for fans to think of her as non-binary, even if he himself wrote her as female - leading some fans to embrace Tekno as she/they Gold the Tenrec - From the Archie Sonic Comics, Gold has been stated by creator Evan Stanley to be attracted to women, although Stanley wasn't sure if Gold was strictly bi or gay, which is why I opted to give her the rainbow flag here Tangle & Whisper - As close as we can possibly get to being a couple without officially being a couple. Hopefully one day! I was actually going to use the rainbow flag for them as well, but as of this month's issue, the duo appeared with a lesbian patterned sky in the background, so they got the lesbian flag Dr. Starline - Headcanoned by some to be a transman because his spurs (which are naturally occurring in male platypuses) are artificial. It's also generally accepted (I think??) that his idolising of Eggman may be romantic. I did a poll for which flag to give him and the gay flag won, so he got that one Nite & Don - Our married bird guys! Good for them! Again, I gave them the rainbow pride flag because it hasn't been stated (that I know) if they're gay, bi, pan or otherwise, but they're happy and together either way Sally Acorn (with tiny Nicole!) - My childhood fave from the Archie Comics. This chipmunk is bisexual and there is nothing you can do about it Lanolin the Sheep - Many of us are optimistic that Lanolin might quietly be the trans rep we've been hoping for from Sonic, as she's a girl sheep with horns Cheese the Chao - As chao are non-binary, I included Cheese to represent them, because Cheese is cool Sonic the Hedgehog - A touchstone to many in the community. I included the asexual, aromantic and trans flags in his speed trail, as Sonic won the t-boy swag tournament on tumblr and Sonic/no one was voted the best Sonic ship on tumblr. As a trans aroace person myself, Sonic's lack of interest in romance and conformity was always inspirational to me growing up. The rainbow facepaint is because I'm sure that he's as important to other members of the community in their identities as well As always, these are my readings and takes on these characters that may not align with your own or be canon in anyway. But I hope that you can find joy and peace in pride as I do regardless :3

summary: jennifer jareau would be the death of you someday, you know that and you'd probably let her. surprisingly, you weren't aware that you caused that same reaction on her, too. 
pairing: jj jareau x fem!queer!reader 
w.c: 4.8K
warnings/content: lots of yearning and miscommunication; angst (wouldn't be me without any angst); flirting; fear of rejection; this is not a coming out fic but it discusses the topic; description about impulsive actions & consent & acceptance; foul language at some point; murder is briefly mentioned; mentions of bad experiences regarding relationships; friendly banter; an argument; fluff; making out. 
A/N: this is my entry for @the-guilty-writer pride fic challenge! I didn't chose an specific prompt. I've had this idea for a long time and when I saw this challenge I thought “oh, that's how this is going to go.” hopefully, you'll like it <3 and happy pride month!!!!
─────────────────────────────────── 
“I think I'm in love with her.”  
You don't go around revealing your life to the first person you see. That's just not you. But have you ever been through one of those moments where your mind trails back to that person and all you can see it's her eyes, her smile, the scrunch of her nose when she's concentrated and the tilt of her head when she's confused about something?  
And then, it slips out. Your heart speaks for itself, you can't control it.  
“Huh?” Penelope queried, drifting her attention back to you. She has been ogling some blonde dude since the moment you came into the bar. You didn't understand the appeal. He was just an average white probably tasteless man. Penelope could do so much better, but that was none of your business.  
You were ogling someone else as well, so. Hypocrite.  
“Wait—what?” The blonde gripped your arm, eyes widening behind her glasses as if a realization has come to her. “Who are you in love with?” 
Oh, she heard that? Somehow you thought it could have been muffled by the loud music.  
You know some order thing that could be muffled? JJ and her stupid flirting with that stupid guy beside you. God, if she giggled one more time you'd break your beer bottle in your head.  
You wondered what would Penelope think in case she knew who you were talking about. You've received a lot of looks because of your sexual orientation over the years and it's long gone that part of you that cared so much about what people thought of you. You were a grown woman, successful in your field and you didn't depend on anyone to survive. Especially prejudiced people. But those people in the bar, they weren't just people. They have become your family. You couldn't stop thinking if they would treat you differently if they knew you weren't straight.  
“Baby girl and princess!” You step out of your inner turmoil to acknowledge a very drunk Derek Morgan. Both of his arms around yours and Garcia's shoulders. He was the touchy kind of drunk. You didn't complain and you knew by your friend's wicked grin that she wouldn't either. “Now what are you doing here moping around? There's a dance floor with plenty of space over there.” 
“Oh, I can see that. Are you taking us there then?” 
“I'd be more than happy too.” 
Before Penelope could drag you out, you clicked your tongue under the roof of your mouth.  
“Sorry, not tonight. My legs are killing me.” 
Derek chuckled, shaking his head in disapproval. “Because of when we jogged after the unsub?” 
Grabbing a shot of tequila and promptly throwing your head back, you straighten your back while staring back at him, a scowl present in your features.  
“You call that jogging? I'm not a gym rat like you, Morgan.” 
“I can see that, we need to change that!” 
“Uh-huh,” you push his shoulder playfully. “Convince Spencer first and we can all wake up at five a.m together to run around the Headquarters.” 
Derek yelled through the music about always getting what he wanted in the end and he wouldn't give up before Garcia whisked him away to the dance floor and they disappeared from your sight.  
A smile lingered on your lips until you realized the golden strands almost touching your arm and your mood went sour again. Thankfully or not, you could no longer hear the flirting, maybe the alcohol was being effective and numbing your eardrums. 
“A pretty face like that cannot carry anything but a smile.”  
Really, someone was about to get punched tonight and you wouldn't be responsible for your choices. What would it take for you to be alone and sad for a few minutes— “Oh,” you blinked at Emily, shoulders sagging in relief. “It's you.” 
You saw her grin through the glass she was sipping on. “Don't act so excited.” 
“It's not that.” You rolled your eyes. “I thought it was another asshole trying to get my number. I'm so done with men tonight.” 
“Hey,” she raised her glass, mentioning your beer. As you did, you clicked them together. “Preach. We should kill all of them.” 
You leaned on her arm, face splitting into a shit-eating grin. Yes, the alcohol was finally in your system. “Such a good idea I could kiss you for it.”  
There was some cheering going around and when you looked back at the dance floor, Penelope was the center of attention. Hotch and Rossi looked like they were having the time of their lives watching the scene, while Blake cheered her on just as strongly as everyone else.  
Sometimes, you wished you had Penelope's confidence. She'd walk into the room with colorful clothes and heels decorated by herself and she'd own it. That was your best friend. Spontaneous, strong and one of the best people you knew.  
If you had half of that confidence you might have confessed your stupid feelings for the woman you were head over heels for. You had to watch her flirt with someone else right in front of you as if it didn't make your heart break because you wanted it to be you instead. 
“Kiss me then.”  
Spinning around to stare at Emily, you blinked confused. “Uh?” 
“You said you'd kiss me,” Emily tilted her head, her dark strands slipping out from behind her ear and covering half of her face. “Do it then.” Her tone had a tinge of playfulness but even in your inebriated state, you saw the truth between the lines.  
You'd never thought of Emily as more than someone you could share everything with. She's been your friend since you entered the Bureau, shy and isolated, she helped you get out of your shell and admit your true persona. She knew everything about you, even more than Penelope, your best friend. Being Queer was something that Emily had a lot to say about and it brought you two closer. To both of you, it was nice to speak without stepping on eggshells, fearing you'd be looked at differently by your friends. 
You were aware she's beautiful. Of course you were, you're not blind. Emily Prentiss was powerful and she radiated grace wherever she walked. That's just something you never... thought about. You never thought that boundary could be crossed. 
Until now. 
“Do you really want me to?” You asked, glancing down at her shiny lips. Another thing you knew about Emily, she hates lipstick, her go-to choice would always be plain chapstick or lipgloss.  
Emily brushed a strand of hair behind your shoulder, leaning forward. Your nose barely touching. “I wouldn't mention it if I didn't want it.” You smiled at that, just as you were about to close the gap between you and say fuck it for everything and everyone else that was in your head, a hand on your shoulder pulled your back, slightly startling you.  
Emily blinks dazed at someone behind you, her face twitching in confusion.  
But JJ says your name and you freeze, “A word, please?”  
She walks away and you are conflicted on whether you should follow like a kicked puppy or stay with Emily and carry on with... Who are you kidding? This is Jennifer you're talking about. Is there any moment you've ever said no to her?  
This is pathetic — you think, stumbling into people as you walked to the exit where you presumed JJ was going. She had vanished a minute ago and there were so many people you couldn't see where she went. 
You're pathetic. She just interrupted your kiss with a pretty girl and you're following after her like a starved stray dog—unless. Unless something happened and she needed you. 
“Jen,” you said carefully, finally outside the bar where she awaited you. You couldn't see her face because she had her back facing you. “Hey, you okay? Did something—” 
“What was that?” She cut you off. As she wiped around to face you, you saw her flared cheeks. That could only mean two things: angry or drunk. She looked fine for someone drunk, different from you who was almost floating at your feet. She said your name again, this time more calculated. “You and Emily? When did that happen?” 
A laugh of astonishment left your lips. Were you hearing it right? “Was that why you called me over here?” you really wanted to be sure before you blurted out something you didn't want.  
JJ scoffed, folding her arms over her chest. That was one of the cutest reactions you find endearing about her, but now it just frustrated you. It frustrated you because you still found her cute despite her irrationality.  
Focus! 
Before you could spar anything back, someone bumped into you causing you to stumble forward, almost falling flat on the sidewalk if familiar arms hadn't held you in place. Her perfume reached you fast than two bottles of beer and five shots of tequila could ever do. The sweet smell of orange blossom made you almost melt in her arms. When you stepped back into reality, you noticed your head was on her shoulder as her whole body shook.  
She was too busy yelling and gesticulating angrily at whoever had bumped into you to realize you were drunk on her perfume.  
“Are you okay? The idiot was too drunk, he almost ran you over— Are you okay?” She repeated, tone softening at the end as she cupped your face and saw your unfocused gaze. “I think we should sit you down.” 
“I'm fine,” you sputtered out, leaning into her touch absentmindedly. Why were her hands better than your pillow? You could sleep right there. 
“Sure, you are.”  
It took you five minutes for you to breathe into a new setting. One you knew too well, the discreet scent of strawberry she'd spray around. That was her car. 
“JJ,” you said, rubbing your eyes tiredly. You should have drank more because you could feel yourself sobering up. “Why did you bring me here? Can't we just talk tomorrow?” 
If you could avoid the inevitable, you'd do it while you could. 
She stayed silent. You huffed out a breath of disbelief when you turned the side and saw her staring straight forward.  
“Okay.” You spat, hand on the door handle. “I'll see you—” 
“Don't leave.” 
“Why not?” Your fist clenched in the handle. “You're acting like a child and I don't even know what I did.” 
Letting out a long sigh, she said, “I'm sorry." 
You hated the way your body reacted to her. Chest searching to cure whatever caused that tinge of sadness in her voice.  
“What happened?” You inquired softly.  
She shifted on the seat, raising both of her hands to pull her strands back.  
“You did.”  
If you hadn't sobered up before, you sure we're sober now.  
“Me?” you croaked out, studying her in what you judged to be nonchalant but it was actually quite desperate. What had you done to make her upset? You barely spoke the entire night.  
In fact, you were trying to take some distance from the blonde for a while. It was the healthiest option you found instead of reciprocating the casual compliments and innocent touching. Because JJ did those things but it was out of friendship. When you did them, you wanted more. You felt more. That had to stop. Once you fell, it was unstoppable. Free falling straight to the rocks. And you'd be the only one banged up in the process due to something you created in your own head.  
But you already fell, didn't you? That's what you blurted out to Penelope an hour ago. You were doomed ever since she said Hi to you in the bullpen on your first roundtable meeting.  
Either way, you took some space. Speaking only the necessary and exchanging point of view during cases. She didn't seem to care so you guess you didn't make a difference in her life. Did it hurt? Yes. But you wouldn't ruin what was left of your friendship.  
“What did I do?” You bit your cheek, afraid she would throw at your face exactly what you were afraid of: she knew about your feelings and she didn't want to be around you anymore. She felt disgusted by you and— 
“You mean what you were about to do.”  
Your hand moved from the handle to your lap as you shifted your whole body to face her. “I— what?” What was she even talking about?  
JJ heaved out a frustrated breath and her gaze finally met yours. It wasn't cold like when she had brought you outside, it was warm, like a volcano about to erupt in lava.  
“God, you don't see it, do you?” Your face caved in confusion. “Why did it have to be Emily? And out of all the places you could do that did it have to be by my side?” 
It was as if her anger had rubbed off on you instantly. 
“What?” You snapped. “You're mad because Emily and I almost kissed by your side?” A humorless laugh escaped you, you didn't even care that she was bothered by what she had seen. You were mad because she interrupted you to screw with your mood. “Oh, I'm sorry, Jennifer. Did I interrupt your trashy flirting with Johnny Depp?” 
Her brows reached her hairline in surprise. She isn't expected you to have any reason to be mad, but apparently, you were. Very much. You never called her Jennifer, it felt so wrong. She almost felt guilty.  
No, she did feel guilty. Immediately after the words escaped her mouth. Why was she making you justify anything? You weren't her girlfriend. You weren't her anything. Just like she wasn't your anything.  
“You really are a hypocrite, you know?” You carried on, jaw clenching. “You've been all over that guy and I had to watch the entire night — when I'm supposed to be having fun — and I'm just— I didn't say anything. Because I have no right to say anything. You can do whatever you want with your life and we're not—” you sucked in a breath, stopping some words from leaving your lips. “—it's not fair, JJ!” 
JJ was speechless, completely taken aback by your garrulous speech. By how you ran out of breath, it looked like you had been bottling up all of that.  
“And you know what? I won't apologize for what you saw. If you're bothered by the fact that I feel attracted to women—” 
“Whoa, wait.” She almost got a neck twist at the insinuation, her whole armor falling. “You think I'm upset because I saw you kiss a girl?” 
“You cockblocked the situation so I didn't get to kiss her—” 
She completely ignored your jab. “This has nothing to do with you.” The look you gave her was enough for her to realize she has just messed up continuously. Really, she called you out here to argue about something that is entirely her issue. It might involve you — it most definitely does, you're the center of it — but it is not your fault. It's hers.  
Jennifer Jareau is a hypocrite. She knows that. 
“I couldn't care less about who you kiss or what your sexual orientation is,” JJ clarified. “I mean, if you ever feel comfortable talking about it— I'm all in for it. But I'm not— that doesn't bother me. That's not what I intended for it to sound like. I'm sorry.”  
Your eyes skim over the features, searching for any sign of lies; the only emotion you were able to find was regret.  
“I had a problem with who you were about to kiss,” she added quietly, munching on her lower lip. A couple crossed the street to reach the bar entrance, they were laughing and holding hands. Diverting her attention down to her hands, she started feeling bad about the situation. Acting like this — angry? That wasn't her. JJ wasn't impulsive nor did she go rough on expressing her feelings. She knew that alright. There's been a lot of times where she wore her heart on her sleeve but none of those times were regarding her love life. She's always been cautious, maybe because in the past, people haven't been cautious with her heart and she had to deal with it by herself. Alone.  
Also, she wasn't sure about her feelings for you. Not until a week ago, when your absence started shadowing her days more and more.  
JJ never fell in love with a woman before. Sure, she's had crushes and was attracted to some but. They weren't you. None of them were you. Somehow, when you came along, her life was flipped upside down. She wondered how could someone question all of their beliefs because of one person? When she met you, the question switched to how could someone not question everything because of one person?  
Oh, but she fell hard. No parachute in sight and she was terrified of heights.  
Between innocent touches on the shoulder, compliments and shared coffees in the morning, and the willpower to just protect you at all costs when you were in the field... something blossomed. And it couldn't have been anyone else.  
That's the reason she was so mad when you and Emily almost... Yes. Not only that but how dare you ignore her for weeks and act as if you weren't doing it?  
Did her absence in your life not mean anything? 
“Did you and Emily fight?” You questioned, brows knitting together. “You looked fine this morning.” 
JJ ran a hand through her face, “No, we didn't fight,” she let out impatiently. 
“Then why—” 
“Because I have feelings for you!” She blurted out. “And I wish it was me. I wish it was me who you were touching and giggling and blushing with, not her.” Okay. What was that thing about not being impulsive? In her defense, she wasn't like this before you barged into her life, so it was all on you. “I wish I was her, to be more specific and to just further bury myself under. I wish it had been me in her place.”  
The softness of her voice revealed how apprehensive she was in saying that. You wanted to pluck out the lines of concern on her forehead, but at the same time, you thought you had gone crazy. You didn't hear JJ saying she wanted to kiss you, did you? Maybe you were still drunk.  
“Are you going to say something?” Her voice was small and you blinked awake.  
“I— I don't—” 
“I'm sorry.” 
Your breath halted.  
“Why?” 
JJ let out a shaky breath, shaking her head with a groan. “Because I just ruined everything.” Before you could protest, she carried on. “I made you think you had done something wrong and it was all me. I shouldn't have said anything, I'm just— I'm sorry—” 
“Did you mean it?” 
“... what?” 
Your eyes traveled through her features, “What you said before.” 
Swallowing hard, she avoided your eyes. “About my feelings? Yes. I wouldn't joke about that.” Something came to her mind and her back straightened slightly. “And also about not being bothered by your sexual orientation,” JJ said. “You're still you and that hasn't changed. It won't change. That would be pretty hypocrite of me, actually.” That last part fell from her lips as a whisper but you could hear it loud and clear. 
You felt your throat closing up. “Really?” you asked, that kid in you that was rejected many times by her parents turned up on the doorstep of your brain. She was still scared. Still looking for acceptance.  
“I love you the way you are, why would it change anything?” 
Your heart stopped beating. Nothing could be heard around you, even though the windows were rolled down and there were few people on the streets, speaking loudly. The bar buzzes with loud music.  
You didn't even know if you remembered how to breathe.  
JJ seemed to be on the same page because she hadn't moved but her eyes were widened in shock. Taken aback by herself. She wasn't remotely drunk to blurt out stuff like that, the opposite actually.  
“JJ—” 
“I'm sorry, I didn't—” 
“JJ,” you said shortly, making her shut up. “Stop,” you ordered even if she had already. The air was heavy, you could taste it bitter in your tongue. Your hand reached out to hers as you leaned closer as her throat bop up and down rapidly.  
Jennifer's mind was juggling between multiple emotions but the moment your fingers brushed hers, it all became silent. It was impressive the way her body reacted to your touch. It slipped her mind from those days you barely exchange a good morning, she doesn't ever want to get to a point where she can't feel it.  
“This isn't a joke, right?” Her gaze lifted to yours. God, had she been staring at your mouth this whole time?  
“No,” she breathed out. “No, it isn't.” Her eyes dropped again, but she got it together in time. “That's not how I wanted you to find out. I'm not sure if I ever wanted you to find out...” 
She watched as your lips twitched slightly and your tongue danced through them slowly. Expecting you to run to the hills as soon as she let the truth slip out, bewilderment reached her senses when that's what you didn't do. You stayed. And you were still there, staring at her, unmoving.  
Until you retracted your hand from hers on the car seat to touch her cheek carefully. Your lips moved but she couldn't hear a thing.  
“Uh, what?” 
“It is okay if I...” She was nodding before you could finish speaking and her lips had crashed to yours in full force. Impulsiveness. That's all her. Then, she leaned back, covering her mouth, blue eyes widened when the reality of what she had done came.  
You made a sound of protest because of the sudden withdrawal. When you saw her face, it was as if a bowl of cold water had dropped right above your head. She regrets it. She hates me now, she's— 
“I'm sorry. I didn't even—I'm sorry, that was out of line, I didn't mean to— I'm so sorry.”  
Tilting your head to the side in confusion, you questioned, “Wait, does that mean that you didn't want to kiss me or—” 
JJ gave you a look of surprise, “I didn't know if you wanted it, which clearly is not the case and I'm sorry—” 
Relief flushed your fear down the drain and you could finally feel the air entering back into your lungs. You started laughing uncontrollably. Feeling eyes burning in your side profile, you raised a hand in a silent request to wait until the fit reached a stop. A minute later, you were red, but you could speak.  
Just as JJ started to apologize again, you shut her up by cupping her cheeks and closing the gap between your lips. Like she had done beforehand, albeit softer. Her eyelashes tinkled your cheeks and the baby hairs at the nape of her neck were being brushed by your nails, it didn't take long for her hands to start trailing down your arms. You felt her smiling into the kiss.  
“You don't hate me?” she asked in between pecks.  
You let out a hum, “I hate you so much—” another kiss “... that I can't stop kissing you.” JJ huffed out a laugh and you kissed down the blush in her cheeks. "I asked if I could kiss you first, silly." She mumbled something along the lines of oh, right. 
“So, uh, wait, I—” She stuttered out and you leaned back. “About what I said before. I really am sorry. I was being an idiot. And of course, you can kiss whoever you want to kiss I was just—” 
“Jealous?” 
Her eye roll was the reply you needed.  
“I don't know. Maybe.” 
You pressed your lips together, “Okay.”  
JJ lifted her eyes to you again, studying your features for a while. She had this unreadable expression from which you couldn't identify the meaning to.  
“What?” you asked softly. She smiled, brushing a strand of your hair behind your ear.  
“Nothing. You're beautiful.”  
You blinked, not expecting to hear that, which only made her grin widen. “It's not exactly how I imagined our first kiss to be.” 
“Oh?” You mocked, recovering from the previous compliment. “So you've been imagining it?” 
“Yes. More times than I can count.” She let her back rest against the seat, eyes never drifting from you. You had missed the feeling of her gaze on you, you had missed just admiring her daily. Now that she was there, in front of you, swollen lips and flushed cheeks — because of you — you didn't know what to do. It was too good to be true.  
Did she love you as she said before? Was this just a one-time thing? Would she regret it in the morning? 
So many questions you wanted answers to but you didn't want to leave that moment.  
She called out your name gently, thumb drawing invisible patterns on your hand. “Hey,” she cooed. “What are you thinking?” 
You shook your head, waving it off. “Nothing.” 
Both of you chose to dive into silent touches and soft mumbling, just enjoying each other's presence. You didn't care about partying inside and a part of you felt smug that she chose you over that man sitting beside her at the bar.  
She was playing with your rings, commenting on each one until you let out a groan and she looked up at you questioningly. You stared at the console, your lips turning down in a frown.  
“What it is?” She asked, suppressing a grin. You looked cute acting so annoyed.  
“There's too much space between us, Jareau. I don't like this.”  
“I'm afraid that that's what happens when I'm in the driver seat and you're in the passenger seat, doll.” 
Your nose twitched at the endearment and your face immediately flared up.  
She grinned.  
“Do you want to go on a date with me?” Her grin turned into a soft smile. She kept staring at you awaiting an answer in expectation, your eyes followed the spark of anxiety in her eyes and the ways her hands had become clammy on yours. No need to be a profiler to realize she was nervous. Not that you weren't about to hyperventilate yourself, but maybe her reaction meant that she wanted something more and not just tonight.  
You weren't sure of that before.  
“You really want to do this?” You brought one of her hands to your cheek, leaning into her warm palm. JJ stroked the spot softly. “I mean, do you want to—” 
“Be something?��� 
You gave her a coy smile.  
“I don't want to scare you off,” she added, intertwining your hands while leaning forward. “But, if you want to—” 
“I do.” You cut her off, biting your lip once you realized you did. “I'd love to go on a date with you, Jen. You know,” you paused. “I don't know if that wasn't clear enough, but I feel the same.”  
Laying her forehead on yours for a minute, you saw the corner of her lips quirk up slightly. “It'll take me a while to get my head around that.” 
“I've been smitten with you for like... forever.” 
“That is so not true!” 
You gaped at her. “Yes, it is!” 
JJ rolled her eyes, “If you say so.” Before you could retort stubbornly, she pecked your lips. “I do care an enormous amount about you, you know that?” I love you, actually. But that's too soon and I can wait to say it at the right time. 
Your hand curled around her wrist as if you were afraid she would leave forever. She kissed your cheek, hand nudging out of your grip to intertwine your fingers in a swift motion as if she had read your mind and this was her way of saying I'm not going anywhere.  
“I care an enormous amount for you, too, Jennifer Jareau.”

Alex Keller
world caves in - @halcyone-of-the-sea
✧ you might look at this fic and go, "mothie, i thought you didn't like the miscommunication trope." and you'd be right, i don't like that trope, but this fic came really goddamn close to changing my mind about that because ho-ly hell what an emotional rollercoaster i was taken on. i was captivated. obsessed. enraptured. i could not stop reading this fic, i was hanging onto every word trying to figure out what would happen next!!!
Tumblr media
Jake "Hangman" Seresin
born to die - @uselsshuman
✧ emma really tried to kill me on the first day of pride month. she said, "happy pride, now suffer 😌" just swooped in with her beautiful writing and this equally beautiful relationship, luring me in with the best fluff and the cute little callsigns and then left me sobbing on the floor trying to put my heart back together.

Javier Peña
late night texts || prologue | i. say what you want | ii. it's just aah little crush | iii. say that you need me - @mvtthewmurdvck
✧ when i was told about a javi text-fic, i was so excited and then it came out and it was perfect and then the next chapter came out and it was even more perfect and then every chapter after that just kept blowing any expectations i had completely out of the water. i really don't know how jo managaes to write the best fic i've ever read every time, but she's just so unbelievably talented i'm just alsdkasjk
Tumblr media
John "Soap" MacTavish
all my life, my love - @uselsshuman
✧ medieval soap fic! medieval soap fic! medieval soap fic!
fun fact about me: i love medieval/royal stuff!! and i also love soap!! so when i saw this, my heart just about leapt out of my chest and i ate👏🏼 it👏🏼 up👏🏼 this wasn't a snack, this was a full-course five-star meal of royal/knight goodness. so good in fact, that i went back for seconds and thirds and will be going back for fourths and fifths before the day is over!!
witch!reader - @peachesofteal
✧ i am in love, i am heartbroken, i need to scream
“What have you done?”
Tumblr media
that'll do, johnny - @lundenloves
✧ started reading this for the soulmate!au (because as we all know i am a slut for soulmates) and stayed for what has to be one of the best characterizations of soap i've ever read?? i don't even think saying i'm floored would work here because that just doesn't cover how completely lovely and charming and amazing this is. such a touching and beautiful depiction of a relationship!!
Tumblr media
John Price
willow tree march - @yeyinde
✧ i can't. i just- how am i expected to be normal after that? how do i go about my life now that i've read one of the most stunning fics in existence? i change my mind from a few recs list ago, a museum is not enough to capture the pure artistry of lev's fics. i don't even know how to describe how i feel about this, or how much i love it. i read this fic like it's the last time i'll get to gaze up at the stars, wanting to cherish every moment and commit every second to memory.
songs that sounds like sea-foam - @halcyone-of-the-sea
✧ witches! fae! mermaids! i have been spoiled with an abundance of life-changing fics this month!! the anon who suggested this needs to have all of their dreams come true, and halcyone.....i can't even form words. i need a book of all her fics because her writing needs to be bound in the most beautiful cover with those pages that are edged in gold and given a special place in a library dedicated to the greatest fics of all time.
silkabo - @moriflos
✧ i don't know how to correctly get across the way this fic (and everything that fleur writes let's be honest) just reaches into your soul and completely sucks you in. did it hurt my heart reading this? more than you could possibly imagine, but that's not going to stop me from reading it again and again and again.
nitimur in vetitum - @moriflos
✧ remember when i did that trope ask game and fleur asked me about a/b/o and i said, "i'm not really interested in a/b/o, but there are like a handful of fics that i like that fall under that trope." yeah, this is one of those fics. and how can you blame me when she's written such poetry like this-
(Price reminds you of the streaks of gray across a canvas. Simply there, but not like the saturated hues of the green and yellow and bright reds that flit through the board, catching your eye. He is—)
Tumblr media
Keegan P. Russ
first strike - @halcyone-of-the-sea
✧ i read the warnings: angst and tension and goddamn if that wasn't the most accurate warning i've ever seen. i've never felt such panic and anxiety while reading like bravo at that amazing tension building! but that ending???? oh man, it was so worth it going through all of that just to get to that ending!
Tumblr media
König
moths hit the window - @halcyone-of-the-sea
✧ did i read this because i have a bias toward anything moth related? yes. BUT i also love me some good angst and boy howdy did this deliver! könig is not one of my fav characters, but you best believe he is whenever halcyone writes for him! i don't know what it is about her characterization, but it's always spot on and i just uggghhh there's no character she could write that i wouldn't love.
Tumblr media
Kyle "Gaz" Garrick
shaky fingers - @halcyone-of-the-sea
✧ i stopped working on this fic rec list to read this. i then procrastinated this fic rec list for another two hours so i could re-read it about four more times. if i could dedicate a whole rec list just to one fic, i would make one for this fic in a heartbeat. one of my favorite characters, written by one of my favorite writers, with nothing but fluff?? i am in literal heaven.
he loves me not - @deadbranch
✧ it's the playful banter. the soft teasing. the playful banter. the gaz being a little shy. the playful banter. seriously, i love the banter in this fic, their little back and forths feel so real and grounded and like two people actually talking to each other and i just- i love the way deadbranch writes her characters, i love this fic, i'm just in love.
cult of vagabonds || chapter five: copper talons - @halcyone-of-the-sea
✧ excuse me one moment while i-
Tumblr media
ok now that that's done, this fic has me stressed the fuck out i am so tense but i am craving to know more! i feel like i'm going to start turning into one of those crazy conspiracy theorists with their red string and corkboard and tinfoil hats.
Tumblr media
Miguel O'Hara
paper flowers - @luveline
✧ this man has been the source of major brainrot for me, and this fic really filled in that fluff i was craving for him. and with just the perfect sprinkle of angst in there, i really enjoy miguel and reader's relationship and just how into each other they meanwhile everyone else is just 🫣
with my heart and soul - @uselsshuman
✧ you ever look at a fic and know it's going to be good just from the title alone? that's how i felt about this fic, and i was right. it's got everything: there's fluff, there's whump, there's action, there's fun spider banter. all of it put together in a lovely soup flavored with great writing and an added dash em's perfection.
untitled - @luveline
✧ grumpy/sunshine is such a great dynamic and it really shines in this fic. i'm also obsessed with miguel and reader's dynamic. how he knows he cares for her and that means trouble, but he doesn't completely push her away and just accepts it while still trying to maintain some kind of professionalism. he takes his job seriously, and that's absolutely nailed in this fic.
the weight of the world(s) - @ghost-with-a-teacup
✧ i finished reading this, and had to take a moment to step back and just-
Tumblr media
five stars. 10/10 would def read again.
just one dance - @ghost-with-a-teacup
✧ i👏🏼love👏🏼this👏🏼fic👏🏼 i will say it to anyone who will listen, i will shout it from the rooftops, i will tell my boyfriend about it until he gets annoyed with me! the softness. the tenderness. the slow-dancing!!!! i love the way tiffany's mind works and cannot thank her enough for this fic 🙏🏼
you call the shots babe, i just wanna be yours - @lymmsweb
✧ this man needs all the breaks and a long spa day, let's be honest. but i love fics where the workaholic get to take a break and this fic really emphasizes those little things, those quiet moments between characters that really bring it all together here.
oh, what can i do? - @uselsshuman
✧ this is how i am every time i reread this fic-
Tumblr media
i love the way emma writes miguel, and miguel fluff even more so. got me kicking me feet, and blushing, and twirling my hair, and just fangirling over everything she writes.
what's in between | (II) - @ghost-with-a-teacup
✧ these fics absolutely exploded and oh my gosh do they deserve all of the love and praise they've been getting!!! it actually deserves more, in my opinion ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ there's just something so good about the secret relationship trope, and that fun little moment of "actually we're married" is done so well here. so cute and so fun and one of my new comfort fics.
better when you're here - @uselsshuman
✧ one day i will be able to put into words just how much i appreciate and adore emma and her determinedness to provide such beautiful fluff for all of my favorite characters. there is no character she can't write, no character she can't make me love. i am feral for this fic and all of her fics.
welcome to new york || 1 | 2 - @writeforfandoms
✧ i am so intrigued by this fic series...and by intrigued i mean so unbelievably excited to see where this goes that i can barely contain myself. i'm going to have to get another notebook so i can write down my theories and ideas about what's going to happen because i am clawing at my seat with curiosity and excitement!!
Tumblr media
Multi
dead disco || on a slow night - @peachesofteal
✧ dead disco, my beloved.
Tumblr media
that is all.
diamondback || prologue | chapter one: chasing light - @lethalchiralium
✧ a series i've been so excited for and now it's here!!!!! it's like when you get that feeling of anxious excitement because you don't know what's coming but you know that whatever it is, it's going to be amazing and all you think about for weeks to come. and i know it's going to be like that because that's how i felt with these first two chapters.
Tumblr media
Simon "Ghost" Riley
the captain || part 9 - @as-is-above-so-below
✧ i beta read this and was still in awe at how good it was when i read it after it was posted. i might've said this before, but fuck it i'll say it again, i adore freyja and her and ghost's relationship. it's a great mix of humor, drama, love, and teasing and that little list at the end??? 😏
harvest storms - @halcyone-of-the-sea
✧ something i didn't know i needed until i read it, and all i have to say is wow. just wow. the way this fic just evokes these raw emotions in me is insane, such a masterful and very realistic take on ghost dealing with a teen daughter he barely knows. and ghost being the "did you win" type of dad when his kid gets into a fight is just so funny.
the paintings || mermaids - @peachesofteal
✧ hello??? what is this???? peach, miss ma'am, you can't just drop this stunning fic and then expect me to be normal about it. you can't just leave me with this mysteriously astounding worldbuilding, and all this intrigue about ghost, and this beautifully poetic fic that has given me all types of emotions. who gave you the right??? how dare you??? but also thank you so much 🙏🏼
sassy series || school pick-up - @peachesofteal
✧ this is the only series that has me beefing with a non-existent pta mom, but soft dad!simon riley is worth it esp when he's written this well and his relationship with theo is just so goshdarn cute!! ugh, your fics are putting me back in my ghost era in the best possible way and i cannot thank you enough for it.
happiness series || raindrops - @lethalchiralium
✧ i meannnnnn y'all know what i'm gonna say here. i can't help it though, i adore this series, it's fun, it's cute, and yeah it rips your heart out and stomps it into the ground with no apologies sometimes but so what?? if it means i get more cuteness like this, i'll happily take all of the heartbreak. i'm in this one for the long haul!
you've just moved in with simon. great. - @rileyslibrary
✧ i love this so much words cannot describe it. it's so cute, and i love the idea of ghost needing time to adjust from having to constantly take orders to unwinding and not having to worry at home. and the little affirmations at the end, my heart cannot take it!
can't lose you - @sleepiexx
✧ june 1st was the day for people to try and hurt me apparently, because ouch. the arguing, then the guilt, the soft confession, i'm just a mess here, but the ending had me giggling and i love the small moments of levity sprinkled in. what a good way to start off the month!
reasons why ghost likes his medic - @ghostaholics
✧ i'm gonna write a fic, and it's gonna be called reasons why ghostaholics is one of my favorite writers ever. i may be biased about ghost and his medic fics, but this is so good and it just makes sense, y'know? esp with the way it's so beautifully written here, like ghost finding reasons to stay near them, asking them to teach him how to properly suture when he already knows. i just love it, and i love this fic so so much.

Happy Happy Pride Month Shana!!! Please write more Luten and Zuko!!
a continuation of 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11
Zuko and Lu Ten leave most of their stuff on the ship and Hu even promises not to throw it overboard once they’re gone. Hopefully they'll be back, although Zuko has no idea when. How long does it take an avatar to become a master? It can't be that long, right? He's done it before.
Riding the sky bison, is admittedly, extremely cool.
Katara insists on going to talk to her brother and explain their plan. Zuko waves at him from Appa's back, not stepping onto a boat full of waterbenders because he's not an idiot.
It doesn't matter how long he's been in the Earth Kingdom, wearing Earth Kingdom colors while serving with Earth Kingdom people and on an Earth Kingdom ship. No one looks at him and thinks he's anything other than Fire Nation.
Luckily a hundred years of expansion means lots of people look like the don't fit, but he's not willing to risk his neck on that when he doesn't have to.
The siblings have some sort of argument that he doesn't bother listening to, but the end result is he and Katara climbing back onto the bison and the rest of the waterbenders sailing away.
Sokka holds himself like a prince, in a way Zuko has spent years unlearning how to move. That boomerang has a sharpened edge. When they get to land, he wonders if he can convince him to spar.
"We need to go get Toph first," he says. "She's on the way to the Lagoons anyway and it's stupid to leave and go get her later when we get to earthbending."
Plus, he doesn't like that he and Lu Ten are outnumbered. Having Toph here will even the playing field.
Also if she found out that he went off to train the avatar without her, she'd kick his ass.
"We'll have to kidnap her," Lu Ten points out, eyes crinkled at the corner like he knows what he's thinking.
Katarra and Sokka look pissed, so he cuts them off before they can yell at them, "Help her sneak away, more like. She'll want to come, but her parents probably won't let her."
Zuko remembers the first time he met Toph, when she'd pointed at him in the crowd of the rumble and demanded he fight her. He wasn't even competing, but something about the way he'd moved or breathed had told her that he was a bender worth her time.
He'd won that time and hadn't gotten that lucky since.
"Her parents?" Sokka asks. "Isn't she a master benders?"
"Master benders still have parents," Zuko says and decides not to tell them that Toph is twelve years old.

Criminal Minds PRIDE Fics
Well, it's the end of Pride Month. Thank you to everyone who entered fics, new or old (or both)! This was my first time hosting a writing challenge and the amount of love surrounding it was truly incredible. From the range of writers who participated, to the the types of fics, it shows just how broad this community spans. I hope all of you are well, and safe, and know that you are extremely loved ❤.
This list is not exhaustive by any means. There are many other LGBTQ+ Criminal Minds fics out there, these are just the entries for the challenge. If you have a late entry (I know I do) don't be afraid to send it in! If you sent in a fic and it is missing, let me know that too!
Please let me know if you have issues with the accessibility of this list for any reason (I used fun colors again). I am happy to provide you with an accessible format.
Tumblr media
(once again, my favorite CM Pride gif which is actually part of a set that I need to track down and reblog later)
Fics are under the cut!

Pride 2023
Happy Pride everyone.
At a bit of a crossroads at the moment. I'm trying to find myself a new job cuz I've been at the old one for far too long, and a change of scenery would be nice, preferably one that has something to do with animation/video making etc. I don't want this to just be a hobby, so I'm trying to find work that'll take me, which in turn gets me self conscious. Pride came and went, I usually make something at the beginning but there's been a lot that's happened this year, not just with my animation work but with the state of the world at the moment, and I wasn't sure if I had it in me to make something to celebrate. Well, we're here at the end of the month, and all I could muster was something bittersweet but hopeful. Hopefully it gets better along the track.
I'll still be gay and make homophobes cry though.

Monthly likes/dislikes
👎🏻 Our Skyy2 - it’s a shame because except for The Eclipse and NLMG none of the episodes have been good. The ABAAB episodes have been surprisingly entertaining and they were better than the show itself but overall it’s obvious that this whole production was rushed and most of them did not put the required thought + effort into creating these stories; especially the MSP episodes had me shaking my head for so many reasons. Maybe the concept of 16 episodes for 8 couples in the span of 3 months was putting too much on their plates but it’s frustrating because it had a promising start. Hopefully this season marks the end of this project altogether.
