Love and Deepspace Thoughts

I promised some thoughts about Love and Deepspace and we're a week into the game and I think I can finally ramble about it for a while. I've been immensely enjoying myself and screaming daily with my friends lol and I think I've been able to formulate my thoughts pretty well! Idk how many people actually wanna read this, but I always love to have a record of my thoughts - especially something this early in game, because knowing papergames, there's going to be so much angst, so many twists and turns, and I'm already seeing a lot of threads of how things could play out and I like to be able to look back and see how wrong I was lol.

I play on the North American server and have completed chapter 7, so this will be full of spoilers for story content, as well as a lot of spoilers for anecdotes, tender moments, and some of the myth stuff - I'll try to denote where I'll mention certain spoilers in case you're trying avoid certain things, but it'd be impossible to write all of my sincere thoughts and capture all of what I really love and am looking forward to without spoilers, unfortunately.

Below will have a lot of thoughts on the current LIs as well as speculation about the 2 coming LIs, as well as their dynamics, and further speculation on where I think - or maybe just would like to see - the story could be going. To be clear, I have not cleared all anecdotes or myths, as I'm trying to savor things and good lord I cannot pull all those cards; a lot of this is compilation between my experiences as well as @poisonheart and further things I've read and discussed in the server. I will also be approaching this as a longtime player of MLQC, papergames' other otome game, because I cannot help but see the comparisons between the game and sing the praises of where I feel like they've grown and refined, but I don't think you'll need to have played MLQC to read this - you can honestly just ignore those bits lol >A<

What I can outright, sans spoilers, say is that I'm really enjoying Love and Deepspace so much and I think that it's come at a really good time for me, personally, as a MLQC player, because there's so much in game that's been completed and we're basically going through the motions doing our dailies, waiting for our new chapter events or participating in the occasional events (if you aren't hoarding resources for SP wish tree events) so it feels SO refreshing to dive into a new game that takes place in the same universe/world but have so much new stuff to uncover, so much new lore, new characters to meet and get to know. In MLQC I have a very clear favorite, but so far in LADS, I find that while I think I might have a favorite, I really enjoy all three LIs so much and I don't feel bad when I pull someone else's card, because it means I get to gobble all the lore! I don't feel like "UUUGGHH THIS GUY" when we get to X's chapter route. Perhaps it's just that LADS really caters to specific tropes and cliches in a way that I enjoy, but I feel so much like they've done these characters great justice! This goes for the MC, too, who doesn't feel at all like a cookie cutter MC meant to be a stand in for our own self-insert, but rather has a lot of personality of her own, is feisty and discerning.

Also, I gotta give a lot of props to the character customization features. I understand why people are upset that you can only change your hair and hair color in the photobooth function, but we rarely see MC out of that feature - so much of the game is in first person POV - and the times that we do see her, she's seen from the back, so maintaining the same hair for all characters allows them to keep something they can use for her stand in in such scenarios. But the customization is legit nuts! You can do so much with it, I spent so long tweaking mine the day before the game launched! I want to make side accounts I will never play just to play with that function lol

But let's get into the good stuff!

I really cannot sing the praises for the LIs enough, and that's going to be the bulk of what I'll talk about, because even this early in game, there's so much nuance to the LIs in both their characters as well as their dynamics with MC. Everyone brings a little something different to the table, and with what little we know of the upcoming LIs, I think even if for some reason the current LIs don't work for people, maybe the new ones might? But personally, I am so invested in all three of them! While I think I have a definite ranking in favor forming, it's not like it means I dislike any of them at all, and I'm always so eager to learn more!

One thing I'd like to mention before getting into it is that I love the inclusion of the myth cards, and though they are treated as alternate universes, I think it's more like they are previous or parallel timelines, but I'll try to get into that a little more as I talk about the characters!

From what I can see so far, I think Rafayel is one of the more popular fans with the North American/English-speaking fanbase - and it's not hard to see why! He's sassy, provides good comedy, he's fun to bully, and he's really pouty. I had a feeling he would be my favorite from the get go, just because I tend to have a thing for really pathetic men lmao and I have SUCH a fondness for him. I said I think I have a ranking forming, but it feels WRONG to rank them because that's how much I really like them, but if I had to, Rafayel's #2 position is really, REALLY close to #1! But the thing is, it's not just because of all of those traits above. I'd argue that he's one of the characters who has a lot of iceberg depth, as in there's a lot of depth to him that may get ignored or glossed over because of the sass and brattiness that accompanies, or even masks, it. As poisonheart puts it, the comedy hides the pain - and Rafayel comes with a LOT of pain! There's a delicious complexity to him where he is one part needy and clingy, but also one part resentful and hurt. MC made a promise that she doesn't recall - whether it was in this life or another - and you really get the sense that Rafayel wants to settle the score, but at the same time his feelings get in the way of those bitter, hurt feelings, and I really enjoy this complexity a lot! I think it elevates all of the sassiness, gives it a purpose and meaning.

Take his Nightly Stroll Bond: on the one hand it comes across as comedic and even manipulative -and it is! But when you get into it, you understand why. That's not to say if I think there's justification for manipulation because that's not what I'm here for; I'm just here for a good time and a good time I'm having. But when Rafayel says "It's been 800 years!" I don't think that's an exaggeration - he just isn't talking about just the day that he waited. Is faking an injury/illness and checking himself into a hospital overkill? Sure lol but that's what makes him so delightful to me. There's all of this hurt and unaddressed resentment, but as much as that, there's all of these feelings! Because even though he's hurt, he CARES about MC, SO MUCH. That's the problem! It would be easier if he didn't care, but he does. He's so needy, so clingy, he wants her attention because he's waited for so long while she was off, having forgotten him, living a life that abandoned and left him behind while he waited and waited and listen ;~; my stinky fish man I'm so sorry I cannot wait for her to learn the truth. I want to know SO BADLY what happened! When did they meet, anyway? He makes a comment on the homescreen when he's sulking lol about "See you in three months... three minutes, landlubber"

HOW LONG DID HE WAIT FOR HER IF ONE MINUTE IS ONE MONTH TO HIM?!

And listen, idk what anyone else thinks, but the end of chapter 7 had me in my FEELINGS, with the way he tried to leave her at the bottom of the ocean - but he couldn't, because of their promise, because he's unable to go back on it, because even though she forgot all about him and their promise and went about her life without a memory of him, he can't do that. It's the hurt! It's the resentment! It's the confliction between his feelings, because it seems like they take up equal space - his hunger for her attention, for what feels like she was so fickle to give and take away, the way she meant so much to him and he feels like it wasn't the same ;A;

(I've contemplated how possible it is that they met when she was younger, before she was attacked in the Wanderer incident 14 years ago, and if that could somehow have affected her memory, but I feel like it must be something greater, because seeing the fish glow in his heart means the vow they made was binding, so something strong must've caused her to forget. But that's also why I've contemplated if this was in another life? I'm less sure about this, because in Rafayel's second anecdote, he crosses paths with MC at university, though of course she doesn't recognize or recall him, and he specifically recognizes her voice. "Though her voice has matured, her pronunciation, enunciation, the rhythm of her speech, and even the emphasis in her sentences... Every word strikes like a drumbeat, awakening long-buried memories in his mind" It feels more likely that it happened while they were younger. Also I feel like this passage really encompasses her significance, that he can recall these details, to recognize them after so much time ;~; stinky fish you make my heart ache ;~;)

I appreciate so much that they've given Rafayel so much depth, that under the comedy of his pathetic, sulky exterior is so much reason for it, that there's an undercurrent of resentment and something dark - after all, we haven't actually uncovered what happened with the painting and Raymond. We saw the mermaid skeleton in his house - was Rafayel seeking revenge for his people?

But Rafayel also shows tremendous emotional sensitivity, in ways that sometimes catch me off guard. I distinctly remember lol sitting in shock after 4-3, and the text from Rafayel that pops up asking MC if she got the thing, telling her about how he asked a seagull to send a white seallshell why hasn't it arrived yet lol and I remember going "NOT NOW RAFAYEL READ THE ROOM ;~;" and then he goes on, telling her "if you draw on it and put it into the ocean the sea will carry the feelings you poured into the drawing to the soul you yearn for" and I just started SOBBING lol ;~; It was just so.... poignant but so simple. He didn't say I'm sorry for your loss or my condolences or anything like that - it was his own chaotic, weird method, but it was sincere. Likewise, he shows that similar sincerity in Ocean At Night, despite initially dismissing paper lanterns as silly human traditions - a lantern will be blown out why would you put all your hope in something so fleeting - coming around to using his own flame, that will never go out, to light a lantern for MC with the prayer that her hopes will never go out. ;~; Listen, I cried. I was TENDER my heart was soggy ;~;

And while I know people love a good pathetic man and enjoy chaotic sass and the fact that we really, truly NEVER know where his plots are going to go lmao - always an adventure with him - I hope they appreciate that depth and don't disavow the darker elements of him that give reason to those core elements of him. Rafayel is a character that carries his hurt and bitterness on his sleeve, rather than hiding it or shoving it away, and I really look forward to exploring it and all the messiness it has to offer, and how it will play out for MC.

On the very far end of the spectrum is Zayne. He's the character I expected to not be too fond of, so I was so pleasantly surprised as we got to know him to find myself proven wrong! I expected him to be... hm... I guess colder? More prickly? Than he turns out to be? And, admittedly, he is still rather aloof and cold on the surface, but I think it helps that he and MC have that history and that we are introduced very early to them through the A Frozen Promise Bond. It made it readily apparent that Zayne was not a cold and aloof person because he was too lofty or something but rather... it just seemed like maybe he'd been someone more awkward when he was younger, someone who didn't know how to connect very well with the daughter of this family friend, but he still tried. The snow seal took me out, you guys ;~; I never moved on from that!!!!!!

Despite seeming so cold, there's a certain kind of warmth to Zayne, just under the surface. He shows his care and concern in the ways he knows best, as MC's PCP, caring about her well being and health, but their Tender Moments are a collection of wonderful moments showing them growing closer, getting to know each other better as people, as friends and equals. For the record, Starry Nocturne hurt me so much, but it did two things I thought were so important. a. It showed that he was not infallible, which I think is very important, because often characters are written in their roles as geniuses who never fail, or else accomplish the impossible, and to see him lose a patient, while painful to read, made him so human but also b. It gave him that moment of vulnerability with MC where he could lean on her. It's so, SO important! for a MI to be able to lean on the MC, I feel, for them to be those equals, for him to be able to be vulnerable with her, but especially so for a character like Zayne who feels very reserved and closed off.

MC makes statements about feeling like there's distance between her and Zayne, especially when they first come back into each others' lives for the first time, so getting to indulge in these little Tender Moments of them taking little steps towards each other, closing that gap between them, is so satisfying! Having that history gives them a dynamic unlike Rafayel or Xavier's with her, because she has her memories of their childhood, of who he was when they were younger, and who they are now, and can compare the warmth of him opening up, of the chuckles and laughter she elicits from him. They also have this kind of flirtship I really enjoy - something very coy, not in an uwu so shy way just.... very coy, both dancing around the bush, before one of them calls it what it is - I thought the A Heartfelt Paradise Tender Moment a really good example of this!

It's so easy to read Zayne as being cold and aloof, but he really does have so much warmth, he just isn't good at showing it. He doesn't wear things on his sleeves like Rafayel or MC. But good LORD when he's in private....!!!!!!! The Business Trip Memoria TOOK. ME. OUT!!!!!! This is the game launch and they're already throwing this at us?! It was, to me, such a mature kind of date to give us? Two people who have had to grow used to each other's absence in their lives, and continue having to make space for those absences, as both are busy people - Zayne, a dedicated cardiac surgeon and MC a hunter - and what it means to grow used to the absence and to miss each other. But listen - when MC got in his lap?! She was touching his mouth? His face?! "What did you want me to do, in front of all those people?" he asked her? SIR?!

HELLO?! Girl. Listen.

I had to fan myself alfjkkfkjafjkafkjaf lmao

I looooooove them for that element of normalcy - for the people who have important careers and lives that they have to attend to, but still find the room for each other in their lives. The implication that Zayne rushed his way through school, took on grueling workloads and lacked a social life amongst classmates much older than him, not because he loved learning or even because he was so dedicated to his career - but because it was his way back to MC, so that he could return to stand in front of her? GOD. HOW DO YOU MOVE ON FROM THAT? HOW DO YOU HANDLE THAT? Knowing that he did it all so that he could stand in front of you again? HOWLING pls LISTEN.

Zayne may feel cold on the surface, but he is SO warm, he cares so much. And not just about MC, either. Thank God, too, because I'm not huge on the "Cold man only cares about the woman he loves" type, but Zayne cares so much about his patients, and making sure they feel seen, cared about? His first anecdote had me crying about seniors in hospitals with no relatives to accompany them to their examinations ;~; What a man.

I haven't had a chance to dig into his myth yet, which is a shame, but his third anecdote DID destroy me. I'm not even exaggerating, I was sobbing in my bedroom - and the worst part is I knew it would be painful going in and I still wasn't braced for impact enough! I mean, frankly, both his second and third hurt but nothing like the third! Parallel universe Zayne in a grim reaper role where he must kill humans turning into Wanderers - so very opposite the surgeon version of him who does everything he can to save people, both of them living parallel lives to each other, experiencing each others' lives through their dreams/nightmares. THIS HAS ME SCREAMING!!!!!

So much of MLQC has a lot to do with timelines - parallel worlds, some alternate universes, a whole timeline that's technically the same timeline reset but also still moving forward...... lol I can't help but think about where all of this fits in to LADS. Even though the Myth storylines are taken as alternate universes.... I think they're part of everyone's stories. We see echos of them. I haven't finished Rafayel's but even little moments, like making a break for it and having to run to escape attention echos a scene of Rafayel and the Princess MC making a mad dash in the market alley to escape the palace guards. It feels especially true for Xavier and MC, which I'll get to. But especially with Zayne - whose myth, again, I haven't been able to dig into, but seems to pose him as a sort of god, a forseer - we have two very different timelines/events now: his myth/Philos story and his parallel Grim Reaper self. How many timelines/parallel universes are we playing with, I wonder....?

I really want to revisit this in the future when I do get to dig into his myth, because I can see how Rafayel and Xavier's myths tie into their identities and their dynamics with MC, but I don't know yet how any of that works for Zayne and MC! I'm so intrigued, I can't wait!!!!

And finally, Xavier. God, I should have known lol in retrospect I should have realized Xavier would be my weak spot but listen..... sometimes I gotta lie to myself lol I love everything about him, the seemingly gentle eepy man who is also simultaneously a walking weapon of mass destruction but also so easily stumped by a UFO machine lol. Much like Rafayel, I'm especially fond of him because of the depth and dynamics, but also, honestly, much like Rafayel, he just checks all the boxes. Poisonheart puts it best when she says Xavier is the perfect middle-ground of the two - he's not as sassy as Rafayel is, but he'll still roast MC, he's very grounded and comes off a little aloof sometimes, but he doesn't seem nearly as aloof as Zayne, and he's also really unintentionally funny! He plays the middle-ground of them SO well. And where Zayne was working hard in order to show up in front of MC again and Rafayel has a score to settle but also so much neediness, it feels like Xavier has a LOT of karma to make up for.

Now, I personally don't have his myth cards, but poisonheart does, so everything I know I've experienced via her and all of our hours of screaming lol and the thing that really gets me the most about Xavier and MC is like..... okay it's the way he's clearly this really incredibly strong guy, but he plays the submissive prey role so well? lol He begs if she tells her to, he doesn't resist, he indulges her, he plays along - but when the mood strikes, he'll pull the dominant switch and flip the table and alkfjlFKJKAFJ ALKJFAF LAKJFAKFKJFAJ AFLKJD GODDDDDDDD IT GETS TO MEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Xavier has that sense of like.... everything for MC, right? Like he's making up for a lifetime. There's implications that maybe he's been searching through space and time for her, trying to find her, that they've lost and each other countless times before - or rather, she's lost him - and his Shooting Stars myth supports this. Sometimes it's really subtle, sometimes it stands out so much I'm in agony. She remarks so often how he feels so distant, like he's as out of reach and mysterious as a star. She has nightmares about him disappearing and he is incredibly reassuring about staying, about not leaving. And maybe I'm reading into it, but he even talks about her hanging on tight, like maybe if she's strong enough, she can keep him from ever being taken away, keep them from being separated this time.

He's also the one who feels like he's actually endured all the years. Rather than separate timelines or parallel worlds it feels like Xavier has actually traveled through space and time, like he's the same Xavier from the myth himself, which makes him talking about the loneliness of stars so much worse. How long has he been alone, searching for her? ;~;

But their dynamic just really gets to me - it's those echos, the way MC subconsciously acts on them, and how indulgent Xavier is towards her. It's the playful teasing and the gentleness and how he plays so submissive and docile but when the mood strikes he can switch it up and catch her (and me!!!) off guard. It's the way he texts LMAO never writing out you or one lmao (which is marginally better than Rafayel's COMPLETE LACK OF PUNCTUATION LMAO ALFKAJFKJAFKJAFKJAFJK) It's the way he has that innocent baby face and could absolutely get away with murder.

Initially I had contemplated if it was possible he is actually a star and while maybe that isn't true I am still not certain he's human - at least he's not from our world (especially if he really is the very Xavier from the myth) but I still like to think of him as one, because he wears the star motif so well and likens himself to one so often. Also, look, I am a SUCKER for a star motif. I was doomed from the start lol.

There's just something about the agony and TRAGEDY in their past, in the echos, the subconscious fears, and the sheer indulgence!!!!! It's MC telling Xavier he might be her enemy later and the distress it caused him, prompting him to share his access privileges with her to earn her trust ;A; It's the way he's apparently spent DECADES, at the VERY LEAST, on our earth AND HE'S A TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE, TERRIBLE COOK lmaoooooooo it's the stupid little lines he says because he's not as overtly clingy and pouty as Rafayel but an armful of plushies is a dreadful thing because then he doesn't have a free hand to hold MC's hand !!!!!!! HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO BE NORMAL ABOUT THIS?! WHINES

I could write a whole essay about Xavier and I'm restraining myself and attempting to be really, really normal about him okay?

But yeah for him it's that depth of like... the guilt and agony he carries - because not only does leaving her hurt him, but it hurts himself, too. That unbearable loneliness, the endless wait, hoping, wondering, unsure of when, or if, he'll find her again, but refusing to give up - and when he does, endeavoring to make up for it. Like, as it is, there's something about strong men being submissive that is so lakkjfkafkjfkjaf alfjakfaf but it's the way Xavier does it with MC that is soooooo INDULGENT, so VERY "for you, because it's you" that makes me want to chew my keyboard and howl at the moon and every time he reassures her he won't leave I feel dread but also I want it to be true.

I know how papergames operates. I know Xavier may mean it, but I also know.... ;A;

And to think, this is all JUST THE LAUNCH STUFF! We haven't even passed chapter 8 yet lmao We don't even have all our LIs! We've (maybe?) yet to meet our antagonist? WHICH I'M EXCITED ABOUT BTW

Listen.

I have some thoughts and I'll try to keep them short (yknow, for me) because this is already long and rambly and maybe I can just expand on this later but: Sylus and Caleb are confirmed as LIs right? But are they the same person or not??????

If Sylus = Caleb it gives us a LOT of potential for exploring some really complex, grey morality. I mean, no matter what, Sylus is going to bring grey morality lol but especially if it turns out Caleb is actually secretly the leader of Onychinus, because it brings that whole "Who is this person I thought I knew?" and more so because Onychinus is poised as an enemy to the Hunter's Association.

But something Papergames has done in MLQC and I fully expect them to do here is explore grey morality, not only in Onychinus, but the Hunter's Association. Xavier's Tender Moments Garden of Secrets brings up the implication that some Wanderers are, in fact, intelligent, and while it's rare, it can occur. And with parallel world Grim Reaper Zayne having to kill people before they turn into Wanderers it begs the question of this world: can that happen here, too? And it gets into the moral conundrums. That's not to say the Hunter's Association are bad for killing Wanderers and protecting people but it starts to bring up questions, because in Grim Reaper Zayne's world, this is being covered up. What about this world? There's also the question of what is Onychinus even doing? I fully expect to find that whatever their objective is, it will be a question of the greater good and if the ends justify the means and the such.

Ultimately, an antagonist LI has to be sympathetic in some fashion, because how else are they going to write the story for them lol. Like they can certainly have Bond/Memoria/Tender Moments that are more about the combative element of their relationship meeting the chemistry that draws them to each other, but at any rate, there has to be something that draws them to each other and makes them care, right? So therefore, he can't be entirely bad, or at least MC has to be able to empathize with him and his objective, or the cause of it or something like that.

If Caleb = Sylus, that might be more achievable because of their history, but obviously that isn't a requirement, and that can also make it more complex, because again, that whole "this person I thought I knew".

I think there's a possibility for that overlap partly because we already have a LI with a history with MC - but to be fair, Zayne's history with MC is very different than Caleb's and has a different dynamic, so even if they didn't give him the villain route, it would still play out very differently and give them a significantly different enough dynamic that I don't think it would be a big issue.

If he's not Sylus, then there's still a lot of avenues to explore with Caleb. They've already implied that Caleb wants to take care of MC, wants her to lean on him and let him play that role for him, to stop being so strong in front of him, and I think that could very well affect his story and what has lead to his "death". Being in the airforce makes me wonder if it's possible that the military is associated in any way with Onychinus - after all, didn't he say that he does top secret work involving the deepspace tunnel, and isn't Onychinus interested in that? It wouldn't be the first time a government agency was written as being corrupt lol (and again there could be a lot gray morality here where Onychinus isn't necessarily inherently bad). Caleb could have gotten involved simply by his job.

There's the revenge angle, if he, too, was an experiment subject (which would make sense because why did Granny take him in as well?) and wanting to get back at? the people who experimented on them. Or wanting to be more involved? A spy case? SO many possibilities and I'm really excited to see where it all goes!

I think regardless of how Caleb is reintroduced to the story, I imagine there's going to be some kind of conflict - his "death" and then reappearance.... did he know that was going to happen? was it planned? was he involved? I don't think they'll bring him back and yay! now she has a family member back but I think there will be some kind of strife to work through, some good ol angst that really plays with the dynamic of feeling hurt and betrayed but wanting to return to the old times that can never be returned to, wanting to seek refuge in someone who maybe doesn't exist anymore, being drawn to someone you cared so much about and feeling so conflicted about it alfkjkfjkjafjkaf kj

I JUST HAVE SO MANY FEELINGS!!!!!!!!!!

This is such a rambling mess so kudos to anyone who made it this far. Maybe I'll manage to write some more bitesized thoughts later @___@

I know you can change your MC appearance in the photobooth section but sometimes I feel less like the character is supposed to be me (or my own OCs) when they give her her own design.

And this goes for the Ikemen Prince game too, I know I can change her look in the avatar section.

I also get it, they give these MCs a bland look for the art and in LaDS case, the cut scenes because they need a model.

I'm sure I'm one of the few who think this, haha, but sometimes it bothers me.

Yet again, I did my live blogging in my notes app before dumping it here 🙃

Okay. I’m trying to put my thoughts together about episode 4, but this was highly emotional for me from the start.

First off, the way Mew’s instinct was like, “I’m not picking you up if you’re drunk,” when Ray was literally in the middle of a sxicide attempt broke my heart. He thinks he’s a burden and should just ‘leave’ and his ‘emergency contact’s first reaction is to basically treat him as a burden. Like, I’m so glad that Mew realised what was going on, but the fact that this happened and two years later his whole friends group (including Mew) still call him a drunken burden…that hurts my soul.

Khaotung’s performance broke me. That was a scene that was too realistic and a bit triggering. I had to pause the video and have a little cry because I was not emotionally prepared (which is silly because I should have known P’Jojo would call us out).

(Actual gif of me watching this scene)

I think this also explains why Ray will drop everything for Mew; it’s not just because of his feelings, it’s because he promised to always be there, because Mew was there for him when he needed it most.

Oh no. Something feels very wrong that Ray let Mew wear the POOR BOY shirt. No, Ray. That’s for you and only you.

RAY NO. NO KISS MEW. BAD KITTY! THAT’S NOT ALLOWED. Although, at least he’s honest?

I’d like to use this scene as a comparison to Boston and Top, however; Ray was VERY wrong to kiss Mew when he was trying to sleep, but Ray dropped it after Mew warned him off. Boston NEVER backs off when Top tells him no (to the point he manipulated, coerced and gaslit Top into sex - sorry lads, I’m still not gonna blame Top for that completely, but it was a form of assault).

Top. A photobooth? Again?

Okay but Sand telling Ray to open himself up to new music and bands is literally a metaphor for Ray needing to move on. THIS FUCKING SHOW.

Gosh, I love Boston but every time he shows up I roll my eyes and glare XD

Haha Top now seeing right through Boston. Hindsight is 20/20 my friend.

OH HOLD UP NO IS TOP SLEEPING AROUND AGAIN NO BABY I CANNOT DEFEND YOU WITH THIS ONE - this has actually genuinely hurt me. The Boston thing I was dealing with, but the rando ex? No, that’s not something my little black heart can handle. OKAY I NOW KNOW ITS NOT CHEATING THANK THE GODS

Boston, you trying to be careful for your dad’s sake is making me laugh like hell. The shit you get up to and you’re worried about a photo?! (Although I think this sets up a future episode with a photo or sex tape leak.)

Oh, this episode is really showing Top’s nasty side. The thing is, I genuinely believe he was becoming a better person with Mew by his side and Boston has poisoned him right back to being how he was. Ugh. My heart is shattering.

‘I have nothing to hide’ SURE YOU DON’T TOP. WE BELIEVE YOU.

So, Top is into the nose candy. Is it bad that I prefer him on drugs rather than cheating? (Also, is it bad I want them to show Ray doing cocaine? I feel like Khaotung would do a very convincing job.)

Aw, why was the TopMew sexy times cut short? We can see Top, Nick and Boston being nasty but not Mew, Sand or Ray? XD

Ray starting the episode with Mew as his emergency contact and ending it with realising that maybe he needs to move on is perfect and the flow of this episode is just *chef’s kiss*.

(Shout out to P’Jojo for introducing me to another great Thai band, Selina & Sirinya)

Ugh I cannot handle this 7 day wait between episodes. This show is making it more difficult than any other, I swear.

My thoughts on the heartstopper Netflix show:

1. No. Why, why is it like this the only reason Charlie didn't tell Tao it's because he feared that he was the one that got the rumor was out but now we're just making him look like a bad friend this is wrong why did they tell Elle before Tao.

Like i get this is to get the Tao-Elle line further.

2. Tao is so possesive wth??

I knew he was a mother hen type but this is like a lot worse wow.

3. And making Charlie find out about the fight from henry???? Nick literally went to tell him!!! Why not???

I mean i guess this is more tv like but why. WHy.

Also, in the comic Nick texted Charlie and they had a long text cinversation causong both to feel better :(

Again

More drama effect i guess

4. All of the fight scenes... idk...

5. Tottaly way more dramatic, I guess being tv more but i feel like it take the spotlight away from the plot

6. Poor charlie he takes on even more in here

At least in the comic he didn't feel like his friends hate him as well.

7. I do like how Tori has a bigger part here. She's way more present. I like it much so.

8. I see the subtle showings into Charlie's eating dissorder.

9. Tara and darcy :(((( i love them but feelies

Lived for the smoochies.

10. THE LOOK OF DISSBELIEF ON TAO'S FACE WHEN NICK TOLD HIM THAT HE SHOULD TRY RUGBY FOR HIS NERVES SKEKDJE he was like "the nerve on this guy" 🤨

11. Nick's freckles... i am in love.

12. The Elle-Darcy-Tara friendship. YES.

13. I love that we get more of the pther characters' stories.

This was supposed to say, not on top of the Nick/Charlie moments until chapter 7 lmao

14. Fuck Ben. I love you Seb but fuck Ben.

15. I mean Issac poor lad had almost nothing in this

16. I loved how Issac always reads one of Alice's other books

17. TAO AND ELLE TAO AND ELLE

18. Tao's hair ppppfffttt i cannot

19. I love how it still comic-like, like the headlines, the transfers, the shooting.

20. Directing job is amazing. Filming job is amazing. Writing is amazing.

21. Nickie darling, he has so much he doesn't understand and can't really figure out alone.

22. The hand??? Imogen understanding??? Yes.

23. The art teacher "nah, im good." Pppfffttt

24. The breakup attampt. Um.

25. Nick's speaches snskdkbdhsns snndnd

The resmblence between the speach in chapter 4 to chapter 8' one. Yes.

26. "I believe you"

27. SMOOCHIES

28. I like how all of the cut moments from Out are spread around the series.

29. HAVE I SAID SMOOCHIES?

30. Photobooth cameo.

31. Nick reciting Tara's words.

32. THE BEACH "I LIKE CHARLIE SPRING NOT IN THE FRIEND WAY BUT IN A ROMANTIC WAY"

33. "Uh? Yes. was that not already established the last ten times we made out?"

34. Nick coming out to his mum :))) (i guessed it would end after this panel and I was right yes!!!)

35. "Y r we like this?"

36. The ending montage :))))

Idea: An AU where the OC is tied to one of the guys by the red string.

In my case, my OC would be older and would be a fated pair with Rafayel. One minute, she's yelling at him from being a primadonna brat, the next minute she's fighting for her life because he can turn up the heat when he needs to and she knows he'll wear her out.

Someone, tell me to write it even though Rafayel is not my bias.

Take it Slow - Part Fifty-One

a/n: okay this is my first shot at a harry:y/n fic, and it will be multiple parts. y/n had a bad experience with an ex over a year ago, and finally accepts her coworker and good friend Niall’s invitation to go on a blind date with his friend Harry.

Warnings: Smut and Fluff.

Masterpost (all previous parts can be found in the masterpost)

“No fuckin’ way!” He shouts. You immediately start laughing hysterically. Niall and Louis rush over to him.

“Please tell me one of you got that on video.” You say.

“Sarah did.” Niall says. “I think this is the first time we’ve ever been able to successfully surprise you!”

“I really had no idea. I wasn’t even suspicious when she said she wanted to grab dessert somewhere else.” He grabs your face and kisses you.

“Okay, okay, go greet everyone.” You say blushing at how intense the kiss was.

Harry greets the many people at the party. Some of them you had never personally met before. Friends from college, and people he had met during freelance work.

“Mariah?”

“Happy almost birthday!” She smiles at him and he gives her a gentle hug. “Y/N invited me, hope that’s alright. Don’t worry, I’m the only one from work here.”

“No that’s great!” Harry looks around and spots Rachel talking with Sarah. “Rachel’s here, have they introduced you two yet?”

“No, I just got here a few minutes before you did.” He takes her hand and walks her over to the girls. “Ladies.”

“Harry you should have seen your face!” Sarah giggles.

“You got me good.”

“It was all Y/N and Niall. We just helped.”

“Rachel, Sarah, this is my friend Mariah. Mariah these are Y/N’s best friends, and sorta my friends too now.” He smiles at them.

“Nice to meet you both.”

“Um, Rachel, you and Mariah have a lot in common.” Harry rubs the back his neck.

“Oh?”

“Yeah, so, have fun!”

Harry awkwardly walks away. When Rachel turns her head Sarah has gone off. She looks back at Mariah.

“He’s told me a little about you, you’re an art teacher?”

“Yeah, and you’re a photographer?”

“Mhm.”

“Cool.” Rachel blushes. She thought Mariah was really pretty. “That’s an interesting tattoo.” She points to the one on her neck.

“Oh thanks.” She blushes as well.

Harry looks back at them and smiles. He’d never admit it, but he’s actually excited to set up a double date. You had thought of everything, Harry finds you giggling with Niall and Louis. He sees Eleanor walking over to them. She looks a little different. He watches you gasp and you take her into your arms. Harry’s eyes grow wide and he takes long strides over.

“Happy birthday, H!” El says hugging him.

“Thanks! Glad yeh could make it.” He looks down at her stomach and then to Louis.

“We have a spot of news.” Louis says, snaking his arm around her waist. “We’re havin’ a baby!”

Harry throws his arms around the both of them, tears pricking at his eyes.

“That’s incredible, congrats to you both.”

“It was so unexpected! I’m already ten weeks, I had no idea. It’s still really early so we’re not tellin’ a lot of people.”

“You’re gonna be a great mum, I mean, you already are…but…”

“I know what you mean, Harry, thank you.”

Waiters come around with appetizers, and another comes around with drinks. Harry couldn’t believe how much you must have put into planning all of this. He had no idea when you could’ve had found the time. You look over and see Mariah talking with Rachel.

“I know you wanted to do a double date, but this setting just seemed perfect. Little more relaxed.”

“You’re brilliant, think they’re hittin’ it off already.” He wraps his arms around you. “I can’t believe you did all this.”

“I love birthdays.” You kiss him. “C’mon, let’s have some fun.”

You and Niall had rented a photobooth and a DJ. Everyone was having a great time. You take a few nice pictures with Harry, and then you both got silly. He even took one with you both kissing. A couple minutes before midnight, you had Harry sit down at a small table, and you placed a crown on the top of his head. Niall wheeled out a cake and everyone sang happy birthday.

You watched as he closed his eyes to make a wish, and blow out the candles. You cut him a piece of cake. Before you can hand it to him, Louis snatches it from you and shoves it in his face. You gasp as they laugh hysterically.

“Tradition, love.” Louis explains through his laughs.

“Very funny.” Harry stands up and follows him around. He grabs him and smushes his cheek to Louis’. “Hope you like your piece, that’s all you’re gettin’.” You hand Harry a napkin and he wipes his face clean.

A waiter comes over to cut the cake properly so everyone can get a piece. You spend the next hour laughing and dancing with your friends. Harry brings you in for a slow dance. The girls all take videos of you. You notice Rachel and Mariah exchange phone numbers.

The night ends around two in the morning when the bar needs to close down. You hug everyone goodbye that you know, and say your goodnights. Harry was off saying goodbye to the friends you didn’t know too well. You notice a couple of them nod towards you and his smile says it all.

“Ready to go?” He asks coming over to you.

“Mhm.” You zip up your jacket.

“What time are ya comin’ over tomorrow?”

“Like three? Not too early is it?”

“Not at all, gives us plenty of time to pregame. Happy birthday lad.”

“Thanks mate.”

Niall takes Sarah’s hand and they walk out with you. You see Mariah and Rachel linger. They wave goodbye to each other. You grab Rachel’s wrist.

“Well?”

“She’s pretty cool. Good job, Harry.”

“Are ya gonna see her again?”

“Maybe. We exchanged numbers, we’ll see where it goes form there. Happy birthday again.” She waves to the both of you.

You and Harry get into your car, and you crank the heat. You give the car a couple minutes to warm up before driving off. You were proud of yourself for not getting belligerent, and Harry didn’t go crazy drinking either.

“I can’t believe El’s pregnant.” He says as you pull out of the parking lot.

“I know! Thought they wanted to be married first. Either way, good for them.”

“He told me he bought the ring, he just wants to find the right time to pop the question.”

“That’s so exciting!” You place your hand on his. “Good birthday so far?”

“Great so far, all thanks to you. I gotta say I’m really lookin’ forward to that dip tomorrow.” You giggle.

“I can’t wait to get home and look at all the pictures we took. That video of you when you first walked in was so funny. It’ll be perfect for my happy birthday post.”

“Happy birthday post?”

“Yeah, I have to let the world know how much I love you on your birthday.” He raises your hand to his mouth and kisses it.

“I love you so much.”

“I love you too.”

You get into the apartment, and you think to yourself that you’ll probably give him some real birthday sex once you both have slept a while, but he has other plans. He pins you up against the wall and attacks your neck. He had been so good lately about not leaving such obvious marks there, but you weren’t going to say no to anything on his birthday.

“You sure you want this now? Don’t wanna sleep for a bit?” You say between jagged breaths.

“No, want you now.” His lips connect to yours and he sucks your bottom lip in between his teeth. He swallows your groan. “Unless you’re too tired.” He breathes against your neck.

“Not at all.”

His hands glide down to your ass, gripping you harshly. Harry had you as many times as he wanted today, but it still wasn’t enough. It would never be enough. Your hands reach up around his neck and into his hair, tugging on his curls. When he’s done pressing another kiss to your lips you feel how swollen they are. He shifts slightly, and before you know it he’s throwing you over his shoulder to bring you into the bedroom.

As he sets you down your hands go right to take his clothes off. He lets you unbutton his shirt while he undoes his pants. His lips find yours again as his hands reach around to unzip your dress.

“This dress is so fuckin’ sexy.”

“Bought it just for you.” You say biting into his collar bone while your dress falls to the floor.

All you had on underneath was a lace, black thong. You hadn’t even bothered with nylons. His fingers play with the material. Your arms wrap around each other as you both fall to the bed. You get tangled in each other, just wanting to touch every inch of skin on your bodies. His hands were on your hips, and you heard a tare.

“Shit, sorry.” He says. You look down at the material that was now falling off of you. “I can buy you a new pair.”

“S’okay, it’s just underwear.” You pick it up and throw it to the floor.

His hand reaches between your legs, and he groans when he feels how wet you already are.

“Need to taste you. Where’s that lube from earlier?” You giggle and grab it from the side table. You toss it to him and get into position. “Don’t get too comfy, want you t’sit on my face while I do it.”

“Alright.”

Harry puts some lube on his fingers and spreads your legs apart. He dips his middle finger inside of you and moan out a cruse word under your breath. It was cold at first, but then you got used to it. Once he felt like there was enough in you, he retracts his finger and sucks it into his mouth.

“Mm, so good.”

He lays back on the bed next to you and gestures for you to get on top of him. You slowly lower yourself onto his mouth, and you grip the headboard while his tongue licks you up and down. You feel his teeth pinch and nibble on your clit. His hands grip your hips harshly, surely to have fingerprint sized bruises later. He was lapping up and swirling is tongue all over you. The combination of the flavored lube and you in general was absolutely delicious to him. He could just do this all night, but you had other plans for him.

You grind against his face and ride his warm tongue. You feel your legs shake around him, and your stomach starts to tighten. You reach down to rub your clit while he sucks on you, and you feel him groan against you.

“Fuck, Harry!” You practically scream as you release onto him. “Shit.” You say, out breath. You wiggle off him to let him catch his breath.

“We gotta get more of that stuff.” His lips were swollen and glistening. He wipes them with the back of his hand. “Where’d you get it?”

“Sample from a sex toy party.” You giggle. “Should be easy to find.”

“It was already open when you used it on me earlier…”

“Oh baby.” You put a hand on his chest. “It was only open because I was curious about the taste when I got it. Don’t worry, no one’s ever used it on me before.”

“Really?”

“Yes, only you.” You smile at him. He grabs the back of your neck and pulls you down for a kiss. “Mm, now you taste like cherries.” You coo.

“It’s like grenadine almost.”

“Yes! With a hint of vanilla.” You both laugh. You take a deep breath and straddle him. “I have one last thing for you.”

“Oh?” He raises an eyebrow at you. “You gonna ride me real good baby girl?” The name makes you shutter in the best possible way.

“You have no idea.” You take another deep breath, and swing both of your legs to turn around. You feel him sit up slightly. “This is a little easier if you’re laying flat.”

“What exactly are you doin’?” You turn to look at him over your shoulder.

“Most people know it as a reverse cowgirl.”

“Babe…” He looks at you concerned. “We haven’t really done much else and the last thing I want is you cryin’ or gettin’ freaked out.”

“I want to do this with you, for you. I think it’ll be okay since I’m on top, I’ll be the one in control.” He doesn’t speak for a minute.

“Alright then let’s sit on the edge of the bed, that’s actually the better way to do it. I can hold you and keep you steady.” You nod.

You both shift. Harry sits with his legs over the edge of the bed and lays back. You get on him how you were. You grip his hard dick and give him a few pumps. He props himself up on his elbows so he can see you better. One hand moving up to rub your back. You lean into his touch. You were feeling good and not scared in the slightest. This was your boyfriend, not some fucking idiot freak.

You lift up slightly and rub his tip against you for a moment. He grits his teeth at the sensation. You lift up a little more and slowly guide him into you. Taking him all in and you sit back down on him. He was so big inside you, you felt like you could feel him in your throat. You were breathing heavy, but doing okay. You feel him shift behind you, your back was now against his chest, your feet resting by his hips, and his arms were wrapped around you. He leaves soft kisses on your shoulders and the back of your neck as his hands roam to your breasts.

“You’re doin’ so well.” He says into your ear.

“M’gonna start moving.” You feel him nod.

Harry was in a totally euphoric state. You sitting on him like this was sending him so far gone he had no idea where he was. The angle of it all just felt so good. He couldn’t wait for the day you’d be able to fully take him like this. For the day the only sound in the room was your ass clapping back against him. But right now this needed to stay sweet and soft, and careful.

You reach one of your arms back behind you so you can grip at his hair, a reminder that it was truly him behind you. You lift yourself slightly on your knees, almost sliding all the way off of him, and then go back down. You feel him groan against you. You continue with the same, agonizingly slow motion. You weren’t doing it to tease him, you just genuinely didn’t want to pound down on him too hard.

“Harry, shit, you can lay back babe.” He was clutching at you harshly, totally lost.

“Hm?” He breaks from his trance. This was all so intimate he felt like he was going to explode. One way or another, you always gave him exactly what he wanted.

“Lay back so I can move easier.”

“Alright.”

He lays back, but props himself up on his elbows, he doesn’t want to miss a second of the show you’re about to put on for him. You knew how to do this, you used to be pretty good at it. You grip his thighs behind you, and start to bounce up and down slowly on him.

“Jesus.” His head rolls back, but he tries his best to keep his eyes on your ass. “So fuckin’ beautiful, angel, you have no idea.” His praise gives you all the confidence in the world. You bounce on him a little faster, arching your back in the process. “Doin’ amazing, so proud of you baby girl.”

His dick felt amazing like this. You used to love getting fucked, absolutely railed from behind. As you continued to roll your hips down on him, you just wanted him as deep as you could possibly take him, but in order to do that he would have to take control. He propped himself up a little further to reach around for your clit.

“Fuck, Harry.” You moaned. He rubs you good and fast as you continue to ride him. Your mind wanders, and you let an intrusive thought slip out. “God, I just want you to fuck me up.” You groan as you feel your orgasm coming. He stops rubbing you and you whine. “Hey.” You pout, looking over your shoulder to meet his eyes. He looked stunned.

“What, what did you say?” You stop moving as your eyes grow wide. “Did you just tell me you wanted me to fuck you up?” You swallow hard and nod your head yes. “Tell me how.” You lift yourself off of him, and sit next to him.

“I mean, I’d like for you to just rail me, man, just like really give it to me, but I’m scared.” He could come from your words alone and he wasn’t even inside you anymore.

“Let’s, um, do it in the bathroom. I’ll bend you over the sink and you can watch me the entire time.”

“Okay.”

He takes your face in his hands and kisses you tenderly before getting off the bed. He leads you into the bathroom. He was trying to hide how giddy he was.

“I’m not gonna go too hard…just in case.”

“Alright.” You kiss him again and turn around.

You prop yourself up on your elbows on the sink counter. You feel Harry’s tip start to press into you and you close your eyes.

“Open.” You snap them open at his command. “You don’t have to watch if it makes you uncomfortable, but you have to keep your eyes open, understand?” You nod your head yes as you look at him through the mirror. “M’gonna move now.”

He pulls all the way out and goes back in. He does this lightly at first, watching your features. You had moved to grip the edges of the counter and your mouth was parted. You were enjoying it.

“Harder, Harry, go on.”

He pulls nearly all the way out and pounds back into you. At first your vision goes white and you almost have a flash, but you shake it from your mind when you look at him. His mouth was parted too, eyes fixed on what he was doing. It was such a turn on for him watching himself connect with you like this. He continues with the same motions. He reaches around to rub your clit and you arch up into him, back pressing against his chest. He holds you in place with his other hand securely on your hip, as your hand reaches back to grip his hair.

“Feels so fucking good.” You gasp as he doesn’t let up.

“Takin’ it so well. You’re amazing.” He plants open mouthed kisses to the exposed part of your neck and that’s when you lose it.

“Harry!” You come, boy do you come hard. You press back against him out of instinct.

“Shit!”

He loses his balances and falls backwards. He holds onto tight so you don’t get hurt. He grabs onto the shower curtain at the last second and rips it down, luckily just falling on his bum and not hitting his head. For a second he feels like he can’t breathe from nearly landing on his tailbone. You had landed hard on his dick and all you can let out is a squeak. Tears rolling down your cheeks.

“I’m so sorry, are you alright? I, I lost my balance.”

“I think your dick when up through my throat.” You look over your shoulder at him. You both start laughing. “I don’t think I can take much more, do you wanna just come on me somewhere? You can choose the location.”

“In all honesty, the uh, slip gave me a scare so I’m not exactly hard anymore.”

“Oh.”

“Can’t you tell?”

“No…it all feels numb at the moment. Landed on you pretty hard.”

“Wanna try to get up, love?” He coos. You use your feet to push off the floor.

“Mother of fuck!” You say popping off him. “Ow! Fuck!” He watches you with a frightened expression. “Shit.” You turn around to look at yourself in the mirror, spreading your cheek slightly. You’re relieved when you don’t see any blood, but something didn’t feel quite right. You sigh, and put your hand out to help him up.

“How’s your butt?”

“S’fine.” He looks back at the curtain. “I can fix that tomorrow.”

“Don’t worry about it.” You smile reassuringly.

“Is it feelin’ better?”

“No it feels like, I can’t even describe it, really. It was like it was in here.” You press your hand on the upper part of your stomach. “Like you were really in my guts.” You take a step. “Wow! Okay!” You lean back against the sink.

“Want me to carry you?”

“Please.”

He bends slightly to pick you up bridal style and carries you over to the bed. He gets in next to you and throws the blankets over your bodies.

“Probably should’ve waited until later today like you said.”

“You couldn’t have known you were you going to slip. Did I do something to make you lose your balance?”

“Just wasn’t expectin’ ya to grind back against me, I forgot where we were for a second. You were doin’ so well, I fucked it up.”

“No! It was great, it felt so good. Maybe in a couple days we can try again.” Harry sighs with relief. “Now turn over so I can spoon my birthday baby.”

“I love you.” He laughs.

“I love you too.”

You woke up a little after eleven. Harry’s head was face down in the pillow, and he had an arm strung over your stomach. You rubbed your eyes and you groaned quietly. You forgot to wash your face last night. You slowly get out of bed and your lower half aches. As you walk into the bathroom and see the shower curtain in the tub, you’re reminded of the event from last night. True, you were proud of yourself for taking it. But you did have a flash when you landed, a bad one. You were able to keep it together for his sake, not wanting him to feel bad. You didn’t like lying to him, but you did what you thought was best.

The warm water is welcome to your face as you begin to take all your make up off. You sigh as you pat the soft towel against your skin. You look in the mirror praying there isn’t a new blemish, you had enough as it was. Harry thought you had beautiful skin. He never noticed when you had a pimple, or any of your acne scars. Your freckles helped hide a lot of it, as did the way you wore makeup.

With your hair up in a bun, and your robe thrown on, you make your way to the kitchen. You needed to get your dip started for Niall’s superbowl party. While you were doing that, Harry was woken up to the sound of his mother calling him on the phone.

“Shit.” He says when he realizes it’s a FaceTime. He sits up and rubs his face before answering. “Hi mum, hey Gem.” He says with his sleepy voice.

“HAPPY BIRTHDAY HARRY!” They say in unison.

“I told ya he’d still be in bed.” Gemma says.

“Thought we’d give ya some time to sleep in before we called. Did you go out last night, love?” Anne asks.

“Yeah, Y/N took me to dinner, and then brought me to a surprise party. I had no idea, she got me good.”

“Where is she?” Gemma asks. Harry looks around.

“In the kitchen probably. We’re going to a superbowl party later.”

“Oh fun! Did you take lots of pictures last night?” Anne asks.

“Yeah, I’m sure Y/N will post some later.” Harry’s phone was blowing up with texts and Facebook notifications. “Some others I’m sure are posting as well.”

“Isn’t your move comin’ up, how’s all that goin’?” Gemma asks.

“Good, pretty much just need to get the bedroom furniture out at this point. Her brother is going to help next weekend. I have to go to Florida for work, I’m pissed.”

“It’ll just be even more exciting when you get back.”

Something on your rear end kept hurting while you were getting everything together. You could easily have bruised your tailbone when you landed on Harry. You go to walk into the bedroom.

“Hey babe, could you check my butt for a bruise, I-“ He quickly mutes his phone and points to it.

“My mum and Gemma!”

“Oh my god!”

You both could hear them laughing. Your face went beat red and you walked into the bathroom to inspect for yourself.

“What the hell have you two been doin’?” Gemma laughs. Harry unmutes the phone.

“Nothin’, we, uh, had a slip on the dance floor last night is all.” He says it loud enough so you’ll hear his lie and hopefully go with it. You come over to the bed to say hi.

“Hi, yeah, I’m a bit clumsy on my feet sometimes.”

“Heard you threw my boy a surprise party, well done.” You smile at them and get off the bed to go back to the kitchen.

“Harry, I’m gonna let you chat with your sister a minute. But I love you and happy birthday. We sent you cards to your P.O. Box.”

“Thanks mum, love you too.”

“Alright, so how’d she really bruise her ass?”

“Like I told you.”

“She’s not clumsy, and from what I’ve heard she’s a great dancer.”

“It’s none of your business.”

“So what you’re into BDSM now?”

“Jesus Gem! No. We both fell last night, think I have bruise myself.”

“What were you doin’?”

“We were in the bathroom and we both slipped and fell, okay?”

“Okay, say no more. Just wanna make sure you’re not roughin’ up the poor girl. How long you in Florida for.”

“Like a week.”

“Not so bad.”

“I’m sure once I’m down there it’ll be fine, I was just looking forward to havin’ the week off together. Unpackin’ and what not.”

“No way she can unpack the entire apartment by herself, plenty for you to still do together.”

Harry smells something sweet coming from the kitchen.

“M’gonna go, I think she’s makin’ me breakfast.”

“Alright, happy birthday again, love you.”

“Thanks, love you too.”

Harry gets out of bed, and definitely feels a bruise on his tailbone. He puts on sweatpants and a t-shirt and goes out to the kitchen.

“Happy official birthday!” You say, stacking pancakes onto a plate. “I made those banana pancakes you like so much.”

“Thank you.” He walks around to kiss your cheek.

“Sorry about that earlier, I didn’t realize you were on the phone.” You say, pouring him a cup of coffee.

“It’s alright, they got a good chuckle out of it.” He makes himself a plate of pancakes and dives in. “Mm, oh my god, so good.” You giggle. “So, how’s your arse?”

“Got a little bruise right here.” You turn and point to your tailbone.

“Think I have one too.” He chuckles.

“We’re idiots.” You laugh.

“Don’t know how I’m gonna sit around watchin’ a game all evening.”

“Once we start drinking it’ll be fine.”

“Niall had a party last year and you weren’t there, now that I think about it.”

“I know, I went home to watch it with my dad and brother. I had a very strong feeling the pats may not go back again for a while so I wanted to watch with them. The superbowl was like another holiday in my house growing up.”

“I can imagine so.”

“My dad would always make shrimp pasta salad, which was a big deal because he never bought shrimp.”

“Why?”

“Too expensive.” You shrug. “So I have that made up too, it’s setting now.”

“You’re such a good cook, I feel spoiled.” He kisses you on the cheek and cleans up your plates. “Lemme go fix the shower curtain, surprised I didn’t bring the whole rod down.”

You wrap your arms around him and press your chest to his back. You nuzzle into him, and you both just stay there for a moment. He rubs his hands over yours.

“Alright, go ahead.” You give his bum a quick pat and off he goes.

You change into a long sleeve, white shirt and some jeans. You throw your Gronk jersey on over your shirt. Harry comes out of the bathroom and raises an eyebrow at you.

“Thought you’d be more of a Brady gal.”

“Oh I have his jersey too, but I know Sarah’s gonna wear hers so I’m opting for Gronky.”

“Gronky?” He chuckles.

“It’s his nick name.”

“Which team are you hoping wins today?”

“Neither.” You say under your breath, but he hears you and starts laughing.

“Y/N.”

“Okay, okay, I don’t know. It would be nice to see Jimmy G. win, but also Kansas City lost to us last year, so it would be nice to see them win too. I don’t know. I’m in it for the commercials this year. Halftime show should be pretty good.”

“Who’s performin’?” He asks, sliding his black jeans up his legs.

“Shakira and J. Lo.”

“Hm, definitely will be entertaining.”

He grabs his Packers sweatshirt out of the closet and you grimace. He gives you a look and you just shake your head with disappointment.

“We don’t have to like the same team you know?”

“I know, but….Jesus.” You say and walk away from him. “Help me carry this stuff down, it’s heavy.”

“You bet.”

You and Harry load up his car with the food and head to Niall’s. It was going to be a chill afternoon. You get there and Sarah helps you put the food in the kitchen. Rachel is chatting with Niall on the couch. He looks over and gets up to greet you both.

“Hey guys.” He smiles and hugs you. “Happy birthday.” He hugs Harry too.

“Thanks mate.”

“Harry, did you have fun last night?” Sarah asks hugging him as well. “Oh! What a beautiful necklace.” He glances down at his pearls.

“Thanks, Y/N got it for me.”

“Haven’t seen you wear those in years.” Niall says. “No one wears jewelry better than you.”

“Rachel, what did you think of Mariah?”

“She was really nice. We’ve texted a little today.”

“That’s great! Do you still wanna do a double date or somethin’? We could go out after I get back from Florida.”

“Sure! If she’s into it.”

“Okay, did you make up the games?” You ask Niall.

“Yup! Here’s the list for when we all need to take a drink.”

“Fantastic.” You look it over and hand it to Harry.

“Have we claimed spots on the sofa yet? I like to sit in the corner.” Harry says.

“You’re the birthday boy, sit where you want.”

“What do you want to drink babe?”

“Just a beer, love.”

You smile and go into the kitchen. The girls follow you. Niall and Harry chat.

“So end of February he’s gonna pop the question.” Harry says to Niall.

“Where are you gonna meet him?”

“Says he wants to go to campus where they met.”

“Cheeseball.” He chuckles.

“I know. Can ya believe Freddie’s gonna be a big brother?”

“It’s wild. I can’t imagine bein’ a parent right now.” He looks back at Sarah then back to Harry. “Feel like I’m just learnin’ how to be a proper boyfriend.”

“I know what you mean. Although…” He looks over at you. You’re laughing about something with the girls as you’re mixing a drink for yourself. “Wouldn’t mind gettin’ her pregnant.” He says lowly.

“That’s half the fun, innit?” They fist bump.

“We’ve talked about it a little, she wants to have kids with me someday.”

“Really?”

“Yeah, it’s pretty cool.”

“No offense mate, but back in school I can recall a lot of girls sayin’ they wanted to have your babies.” They both laugh.

“Good thing condoms are a thing.” You and the girls come back over. You hand Harry his beer. “Thank you.” Sarah sits next to Niall and Rachel sits next to her. “C’mere.” He pats his lap.

“I’m not sitting on you all afternoon.”

“Didn’t say ya had to, just c’mere.”

You sit on Harry’s lap and wince. You adjust slightly until it feels comfortable. But you can’t hide the expression on your face.

“You okay?” Rachel asks.

“I’m fine, I just had an accident last night.” Both girls gasp. Niall looks back at Harry.

“What happened?” Sarah asks.

“Stupid me took a shower and I slipped and fell. I landed right on my butt.”

“You took a shower at two in the mornin’? Where were you?” Niall asks Harry.

“Um…”

“Niall, stop it.” Sarah says. “Don’t ask such personal questions. He was obviously in the shower with her.” She grins at the two of you.

The game finally starts, and more of the food comes out. You’re still sitting on Harry’s lap. The NFL did a special tribute to 100 years, and you hollered when you saw Bill and Tom on the field.

“One way or another he gets to be on the field.” Rachel says.

“It’s customary at this point.” You say. “Did you see Gronky, so cute.” Harry pinches your side. “What?”

“You think that oaf is cute?” You, Rachel, and Sarah all gasp and glare at Harry.

“Not a fight you wanna have mate.” Niall says chuckling.

“Don’t be fucking rude, Harry.” Sarah says.

“That man makes me question my entire sexuality.” Rachel says.

“Why?”

“God he could just snap you like a twig.” You say looking at the girls and they groan in agreement.

“You know he’s got a big dick.” Sarah says.

“Alright.” Niall says to her. “That’s enough of that.” Sarah kisses him on the cheek.

“Don’t be jealous, Niall. I’m plenty satisfied with the size of your prick.” She says giggling.

“I think you’ve had enough to drink.” She kisses his cheek again and goes back to the TV.

“Good for Demi.” Rachel says.

“Yeah, she looks great.” You say. “Still comfy with me on you? I can move to the chair.”

“You’re not goin’ anywhere.” He kisses the back of your neck.

The kickoff starts and you all take a drink. The first yellow flag, you all take a drink. The first commercial comes on, and the person who laughs or makes a comment has to drink.

“This dip is so good!” Niall says.

“Thanks, it’s really easy to make.”

“And way better for you. We love a low carb dish.” Sarah says giggling.

The halftime show starts and the three of you start hollering.

“Get it bitch!”

“She looks so good!”

“Starting off with She Wolf? Big dick energy.” You say making everyone laugh.

J. Lo comes out and you all squeal when she sings Waiting for Tonight. You starting singing along.

“God I remember I was like three or four when that song came out. I remember watching the making of the music video on MTV.��

“Same!” Rachel says. “She’s really doing fifty right.”

“Remember ladies, you’re not ugly, you’re just poor.” Sarah says.

“Preach!” You say taking a sip of your drink. “Ever notice how perfect every famous person’s skin is? Would love to have affordable skin care.”

“Nothin’s wrong with your skin, love.” Harry says.

“Plenty is wrong with it. My freckles just cover up the small things.”

“Remember when we were in college and you had to stop using proactive because it burned your skin?” Rachel asks.

“Fuck, that was scary. Then I had to switch to all of the hypoallergenic shit.”

“It burned your skin?”

“Yeah! I had been using it for years, and then all of a sudden it started acting up. I was so mad because my mom had just bought me all new stuff.”

The game goes on, and you all start drinking water to sober up a bit. You and Niall go into the kitchen and pull out a small cake, and stick some candles in it. You dim the lights and start singing. Everyone joins in. Harry’s face lights up and you place the cake onto the coffee table. He blows out the candles and gives you a kiss on the lips.

“Thanks guys.” He says. “I’m feelin’ really loved this weekend.” He smiles and you hug him. “Who wants cake?”

Harry cuts it up and you help him get it onto the plates. You were waiting to post your special message until you got the cake out. You sit down on the couch and set up the pictures and what you wanted to say. You make your post to Instagram and share it to Facebook. Harry sits next to you, taking a bite of the cake. He feels his phone go off, and smiles at the notification.

“I’d just like to wish,” He reads the post out loud.

“Harry, stop!” You giggle.

“My boyfriend Harry a very happy 26th birthday. The last almost six months have been the best of my life and I’m so happy we got to share this day together. I love you to the moon and back, and around again.” He looks at you and puckers his lips. You kiss him and everyone in the room awes.

“Shut up, all of you.” You pout.

“It was very cute.” Niall says.

“Look through the pictures. Some of them I’m saving for our six month.”

“I’m gonna be in Florida for that.” He sighs.

“I know, we’ll celebrate when you get back.”

The game goes on, and when it ends everyone helps clean up. You all say your goodnights and head to the car. You and Harry hold hands the entire way home. It was the perfect birthday weekend.

Uncertain Love - Cubicles CYO Ending #1

(As requested by readers, I’m posting all the endings for Cubicles! I hope you enjoy them, and I am excited to bring you more choose your own ending fics in the future. Shoot me a message if you want to be tagged. Stay tuned! xoxo, Bri)

The party was in full swing, and thanks to the couple of drinks bubbling in your system, you were feeling much more chatty and confident. You flitted through the party, chatting with everyone as you went along. You couldn’t help but notice that James was sticking close to his friends, even though plenty of the girls (and honestly, some guys) were pining from afar. He had been so friendly with Mary earlier that you were surprised he wasn’t mingling more. Plus, he’s a known flirt. Feeling a little bold, you sauntered over to the group of guys with a grin. “Hey lads, how about we liven up this scene with a round of shots?!” Remus looked at you surprised, but Sirius and James immediately crowed with joy and dragged everyone over to the bar to grab glasses. James and Sirius went through the party and handed each person a drink before heading up to the DJ booth. James grabbed the mic and people in the crowd started cheering. “Hi gang! Thank you all for coming! I’ve always wanted the place I work to be somewhere that I enjoy, and where I feel like I can make connections and a difference in the community. That’s why I plan these events, so we can all let off steam and get to know each other! If you ever have any suggestions for things you’d like to see at a future event, don’t hesitate to reach out to me; I’m a friendly guy, I promise!” James winked, pausing his speech for a moment as you heard a nearby group of girls squealing, prompting an involuntary eye roll. Then you noticed James look over at you, a warm smile planted on his face. “Now before we take our communal drink, I just wanted to give a little shoutout to my partner-in-decorating, Y/N Y/L/N, who is an absolute dear for helping me get this whole setup together. Wouldn’t have been half as fun without you, so thanks for putting up with my crazy antics.” You felt a blush creeping over your face as people turned to look at you, smiling and cheering. You didn’t hear the words that came next, from Sirius this time, but everyone counted down swiftly from 3 before knocking back their shots. You quickly mirrored them, feeling the firewhisky slide down your throat like a shooting star. You felt your pupils dilating as the alcohol hit your stomach, and you slowly tipped toward the edge. Now seemed like the best time to confront James about earlier, after that rather heartfelt toast. Unfortunately, he was nowhere to be found, so you wandered through the activities until you happened upon the photo booth that James had been working in earlier. You decided to slip in and recollect yourself. Perhaps you’d had more than you thought… “Merlin’s beard is this thing even on?! I better not have to pay for this or…” Just then, the curtain slid open to reveal a red-faced James Potter. You stared at him slackjawed, feeling your face begin to mirror his. “Oh gosh, sorry Y/N, I didn’t realize you were already in here. I’ll go…” But as he started to turn, you grabbed him by the wrist and pulled him inside, reaching across him to yank the curtain shut. He looked at you nervously. It was almost cute how he was so flustered. “What’s up with you? I feel like we were having a good time earlier, and then as soon as Mary showed up, we got awkward. And then you made that sappy toast in front of everyone!! Was it something I did or said?” You murmured, looking away at the screen in front of you. Out of the corner of your eye, you noticed the confusion wash across James’ face before he seemed a little frustrated. You swallowed anxiously. “Well, you’re the one who seemed rather peaked when Mary asked if we were having a moment, Y/N. I just played along so as not to make you more uncomfortable than you already seemed to be.” There was a bit of bitterness in his tone, but also a dose of sadness, and you now wondered why you’d gotten so distant then. Not that it excused the way James had responded, which made your temper flare up again. “Yes, well you didn’t have to act so keen on her arriving, you know! I know what they say about you sometimes, and I wanted to believe that it wasn’t true! But maybe they were right…” You spat this out at him before looking morosely at your shoes. The stunned look on his face was quickly replaced by one of determination. He reached out and took your chin, turning your face towards his. He leaned forward and you inhaled. “Listen, Y/N, I like you. I asked you to help me set up for the party as a ruse to spend time with you. I thought that was rather clear, but I guess it’s a gesture that friends do as well. But I want to be very direct with you. I arranged the whole party as a chance to talk to you. I knew that…” James paused for a second, looking twisted around. “Your best friend doesn’t like me very much, so I needed a venue where she wouldn’t be present so I could actually talk to you… alone. I’m sorry if you thought I was being flirty with Mary; that’s just in my nature. It was a nervous, and if I’m being honest, somewhat wounded response to you blowing off the moment. Which was incredibly immature of me, but sometimes I just can’t help myself. I’m sorry, but I’m not sorry for going to all the trouble to get your attention because here you are.” Exhale. He looked at you desperately, and you felt his shaky breath on your nose. It smelled of liquor and candy, and suddenly it was the best thing in the world. You leaned forward and pressed your mouth across his, a smile warming its way over your lips. His response was stalled, surprised probably, and without realizing it, one of you tripped the photobooth and the second you opened your mouth to him, the light flashed. You pulled apart swiftly, staring at the screen. Another flash, and suddenly you were laughing. James couldn’t help joining you, and with the last flash, the moment was sealed. You turned back to him, and he leaned forward again for a rather heady kiss. Your brain was dancing, thick with affection or alcohol. James sighed, brushing away a lock of your hair. “As much as I’m enjoying this, what do we do about Evans? I… don’t want to ruin your friendship. Girl power and all that…” You pursed your lips, ruminating on this inconvenient truth. Lily would probably never accept you going out with James. Why shouldn’t your happiness matter though? Maybe once you felt things out with him, you could tell her. You didn’t really want to lie or keep a secret from your best friend, no matter how much you liked this weirdo sharing the photobooth with you. “Well James, I think, for now, this can be our little secret. Who doesn’t love a little danger once in a while?” You chuckled, and he gave you a smug look before recapturing your lips. ——————————————————————————————————— Tag List @supremequeenofthenerds, @wizardwritings, @couragetocontinue, @fudgefight, @lionnottheanimal, @crtreg, @shehassomuchsoul, @formersovietunion, @serenefreakgeek, @bibimagines

PART 2

Author: @sabine-leo

Pairing: Tom Hiddleston / Reader

Genre: Romance, Fluff, Mysterious encounter, sexual tension

Wordcount: 1948

Part: 2 / ? (aprox 3 - 4) LINK TO PART 1

Summary: A mysterious masquerade ball calls for a enthralling encounter with a handsome stranger.

Note: When you read the first half I´d recommend listening to this song:

That is the song I immagined them dancing to!!

youtube

“Would you reveal your name? Or should I just start to call you Darling?”

The shiver that went down and up your spine again was telling how much he ignited your phantasies with his low, whispered question. But something about this night made you braver than you normally would be. “Maybe I will…maybe I won´t…” You said while leaning forward yourself.

Tom took in a sharp breath and chuckled very low.

“Very well!” He leaned back and gave you a once over for the hundreds time tonight.

“I might just coax it out off you…Darling” He added and grinned wickedly while his thumb pressed down to feel your pulse for a second. Without letting go of your wrist he stood and towered above you, trapping you between the table and himself. Leaning down he came close to your ear.

“Dance with me…” The waft of his cologne engulfed your senses for a second before he stood up straight again and twirled the hand that was holding your wrist in a way that you were now holding his hand. Now you gave him a once over. God, he looked dashing in that three-piece. You could tell that he was well build under all that fabric. A soft tug made you stand up. Tom smiled and started to walk onto the dancefloor with your hand in his, searching a spot that gave you enough room to move. As he turned to you the music stopped, but he just grinned and twirled you 2 times before he tugged a little harder to get you close to his body. Your breathe puffed out as your chest hit his with a soft thud. His hands ran down your arms as the first notes of a new song came out of the speakers.

The grin that spread on Toms face as he recognized the song was so damn sexy. He lifted your hands up to his neck. “Hold on darling…” His hands grabbed your waist and he slowly leaned a bit forward to bend you backwards a little, bringing your groins even closer together. You let him bend you backwards, not even the slightest scare that he would not support you or help you back up. Your hands lost touch to his neck and skidded down his shoulders and strong upper arms as he tilted you JUST a little more while leaning back himself. Swaying you softly from left to right and then tugging you back up again. He looked you deep in the eyes through his mask and your hands found their way back to his neck on their own. There was no way not to sexy slow dance to this song.

One big hand spread on your back, deep enough to almost touch the starting curve of your behind but not high enough to touch your skin where the dress exposed it. The other had your waist in a soft grip as he swayed with you. Taking in a shallow breath one of your hands skidded above his lapel to his neck, touching his skin and feeling the soft brush of his longer hair. You heard him takin in a breath but he did not say anything, he only watched you and danced with you in a more intimate way than you have ever danced with anyone before. Damn he could move smoothly. And he made you move sinuously against him too.

Tom bend you backwards again, you tilted your head back and let the music fully take over. This time he did not lean back, no he followed you and let his nose touch your exposed neck. Inhaling your scent and wetting his lips as if he was ready to take a bite out of you any second. The tip of his nose did not break contact as he pulled you back up again. He stayed close and let it skid over your cheek into your hair so that his lips where near your ear as he whispered. “Your name, beautiful?!”

You honestly felt dizzy, his presence was a bit overwhelming and his voice did things to you. As you felt his lips breathe a kiss to the spot under your ear you shivered in his arms. That made him chuckle and hold you even closer. “My name is Thomas…” he said into your ear again before he leaned only back so much as to look into your eyes. The hand that had been on his skin slowly dropped down to his chest. Tom blindly found your other hand and entangled it with his against his chest.

“Hello Thomas…I am (Y/N)” A sexy smile spread on Toms lips before he closed the distance very slowly to give you a soft kiss onto your lips. “Hello (Y/N)!”

Emma, who had watched you dance with Tom fanned herself as she turned to the bar.

“Holy shit that was hot, I think I am a bit weak in the knees on her behalf!”

Sam chuckled as he overheard her talking to herself. Emma looked up and blushed.

“Woops!” Sam grinned. “Never mind. I also watched my friend dance with your friend and I too felt it was like watching foreplay!” Emma giggled. “Are you a gaper?” Sam shrugged. “As much as you are!”

Emma started to laugh and they both headed to the bar, together.

Tom softly swayed with you to the next song. He wished to see your whole face! From what he could see he knew that you were stunningly beautiful to him. Normally he wasn´t so shallow but on a night like this it had been the first thing he had noticed, COULD notice. The tension, the crackling sparks that were a dead giveaway to the sizzling chemistry that you ignited in each other sure came from the bodily attraction. But even that was a rare thing to happen to him. He could find someone attractive without his blood pulsing hot through his veins after only a slight touch from that someone. With you, it was like setting himself ablaze with every single touch, look or smile he shared with you. There was only one problem, if he wanted to see your face, he had to reveal his too.

Was he ready to do that? For something that burned hot and probably, most definitely only one night?! Something like this was set to crash and burn after a passion filled night.

Tom tried to shut up his thoughts and turned you. He danced with your back against his chest. His arms wrapped around your waist and his head resting close to yours. You were the perfect height for him. You felt perfect in his arms. Closing his eyes, he smiled as you stroked his arm. It felt so good that he nuzzled you for a second. Seeing a photobooth in the far corner behind the dancefloor he had an idea. If he couldn´t have you for the night without risking to reveal himself and face the aftermath of a one-night stand with a celebrity, he nonetheless wanted a memento.

“Bear with me!” He said into your ear and walked with you still against his chest and in his arms to the photobooth. “Thomas?” You asked and now he got Goosebumps hearing his name from your lips. “Let´s take pictures. As a reminder that when the sun rises, we still know that this was not a mere dream.”

Laughing softly, you let him take the automatic release in one hand and take a picture. After the first picture where he stood behind you, engulfing you in his arms he turned you. You looked up to him and he down on you with a smile. That was another picture. Grinning he started to goof around. It took you not a second to join in on the fun and the both of you took some pretty hilarious pictures with the added items you choose. Still giggling you put down what was in your hand and looked up to Tom. “You are fun!” He said and grinned, even under his mask you could see the smile reaching his eyes. They sparkled. “And you are so very beautiful!” He added and before you knew it, he had you in his arms and began to kiss you slowly but chaste. THAT was the last picture he took.

The booth produced 2 tickets. On it was a link and a generated password to access the pictures after 12 hours for 2 weeks. Tom slowly lifted his head and licked his lips. “Sorry for the ambush.” He chuckled and added as he saw your grin. “Ok, I am not really sorry, but usually I don´t do stuff like this…” You laughed. “What? Dressing up and going out with a mask to meet equally masked strangers. Or dirty dance and kiss masked strangers while taking pictures?”

Tom laughed loudly and took the two tickets. “Both!” He handed you one ticket and put his safely away and asked. “Want to grab a drink? Or have I overstayed my welcome?”

Smiling up you said “A drink sounds lovely, Thomas!” Tom took your hand in his and led the way to the bar where you joined Sam and Emma.

The both of you got teased for the dance but Tom only grinned and stayed close to you. He touched your hand or your back while the 4 of you talked and shared some laughs about this night. Sam was watching Tom interact with you and he knew the boundaries Tom had set for himself. Needed to set for himself. Sam didn´t think you would be one of the women who would sell your encounter with a celebrity to the highest bidder, but he had seen stranger things while with his friend. When Tom and you came back from another slow dance together, Sam bobbed his head to Tom that it was time to leave. Toms heart sank but he knew Sam only meant to protect him. He nodded and turned to you. He was about to talk as Theo, definitely a bit drunk tumbled into him.

“Sorry mate!” He mumbled and Tom caught him just in time before his legs did some funny things instead of holding him up. Sam came to help Tom and clapped Theo shoulder.

“Time to go home lads!”

Tom looked at you apologizingly. You smiled softly at him and said “Get your friend home safe.”

Sam had started to turn, who knew what Theo would do or what Tom would say if they stayed a minute longer to say goodbye. Tom walked away with Theo pressed in the middle of him and Sam, looking one last time over his shoulder, back to you. He could not follow through with his need to take you home for the night. But he could not walk away like that either. “Just a second, hold him!” He said and let go of Theo. “Thomas?!” Sam said but Tom already strode back to you.

Without a word he let his hand touch your cheek and tilt your head up. He pressed his lips against yours and tugged you against his body. You could only hold on and kiss him back.

Gaspingly he broke lose and looked at you. “I won´t forget this night!” He smiled a bit sad and let go of you. “Goodbye (Y/N)!” You gulped, still flabbergasted. “Goodbye Thomas.”

With that he left with his friends and you could only stare after him.

Emma took your hand and said.

“If he loses his shoe on the way out, I will hunt him down with you!”
