← part 1 , part 2 , part 3 ⭑ part 5 →

synopsis: it’s your first year at college and you’re 1,500 miles away from home. you’d feel completely alone if it wasn't for your attractive roommate ellie. will this attraction complicate the already uncharted territory? or will she be the answer to all your problems?

|✯| pairing & wc: college!ellie williams x roommate!reader. wc: 3.2k

After that special night with Ellie, you realized there was no more ignoring the situation at hand. She left you feeling empty just as quick as she had made you feel full. And you cared so much for her, despite the fact. No matter how much you wanted to stand your ground, your mind always got stuck on the possibilities. The possibility that Ellie was feeling everything you were… The possibility that there was a happy ending in sight… The possibility that Cat meant nothing.

With all these feelings circling your mind, you felt too biased to make the right decision when it came to her. You decided it was time to tell Dina. You quickly picked up your phone and gave her a call, inviting her out to coffee. Thankfully Dina offered to drive, as you were still stranded at Ellie’s bandmates place. 10 minutes later, she was out front honking.

Dina greeted you with a squeal, “Hiii love!! I missed you!”

Before you could reciprocate her greeting she spoke again, “Wait who’s house is this? How was last night? Oh my god Y/n, did you hook up with someone?? Pleaseee tell me!!” Dina’s thoughts were going 100 mph trying to guess the context of this little rendezvous.

“That’s why I asked you to coffee. Trust me, I’m going to explain everything.” Your mysterious answer left Dina even more intrigued. The both of you arrived at the coffee shop, ordered your drinks, and took a seat at a little table in the corner.

“Soooo… TELL ME ALREADY,” Dina exclaimed impatiently as you fidgeted in your seat not even sure where to start. You stared through the shop window at nothing in particular as you mulled over the timeline of Ellie and you. Dina could see the cogs in your brain turning and knew this conversation was going to be about more than a silly little one night stand. You finally spoke 3 words, “it’s about Ellie.”

“Ellie? God I should’ve known, I’m literally your best friend!!”

“It's fine D, I’ve been pretty radio silent about my love life on purpose. See, it’s much more complicated. Like a gut wrenching, sick and twisted, WLW heartbreak kind of complicated. How long can you stay and talk?”

“I’m all yours babe, give me every last detail. I'm serious,” Dina urged. So, you did. The debrief took a total of 3 hours and 2 iced coffees to get through. It felt so good getting everything off your chest.

Dina gave you just the right advice too, “Communication is key.” You knew it was stupid but talking about it upfront was the last thing you had thought to do. It seemed too scary to face Ellie like that, but you knew it was the right choice. Sure it was hard dealing with these feelings and you wanted answers, but you also lived with this girl. You owed it to yourself and to her to figure out this bullshit. You didn’t want to be in a constant state of tension and resentment every time the two of you had to be around each other (which was all the time).

After a morning well spent, you and Dina said your goodbyes and she dropped you back off at your dorm. You walked through the front doors and swiped your student ID to access the elevator. You leaned against the cold, metal walls as you brainstormed how to approach Ellie. You had a good idea of what to say up until you were opening the door and coming face to face with her. She made you forget everything. But, despite your blank mind, you were determined.

“Ellie, we need to talk, seriously.” You tried to assert yourself, but your breaths were shaky from nerves. Ellie looked up from her desk nonchalantly and gave you a blank stare like she had no idea what you were talking about. This really pissed you off.

“Don’t give me that fucking look Ellie, you know exactly what I’m talking about. How could you just leave me like that?”

“Hey relax, it’s not like that.” she stood up and answered calmly, which made you want to slap her even more. Ellie could put on a game face better than she could ever be vulnerable. No matter the damage her lack of honesty caused.

“It’s not like that? Be real with yourself for one fucking second Ellie.”

“Fuck you bro, I don’t need this shit.” she retaliated, not meaning a word she spat out.

“FUCK YOU!” you shouted, moving into her space. Instead of moving back, Ellie stayed right there with you, standing her ground. You felt the heat of her body against yours and an erotic sensation growing between your legs. Your eyes began to glaze over with tears of desperation, she had this unexplained power over you.

“Ellie, I- I can’t keep doing this with you.”

“Can’t keep doing what?” she asked. It’s like Ellie needed you to admit it first before she could even acknowledge it on her own. She longed to hear your passionate confessions and anguished pleas.

“I can’t keep beating around the bush with you. I like you Ellie and it’s driving me fucking crazy because you act like you could care less. You taunt me with your stupid sexy charm and stupid flirty touch just to run right back to Cat. But right here, right now, you can’t deny the tension between us. I need you Ellie.” Tears began to stream down your face and you wiped them away with haste. A beat of loud silence echoed through the room before Ellie finally answered.

“I don’t mean to tease, but there’s just so much at stake when it comes to me and you. Can't you see? I know I’m a piece of shit. I mean, here I am with a perfectly fine girlfriend, yet inches away from my roommate, hardly able to resist her touch.”

“Then don't Ellie. Forget about everyone and please just kiss me.” You were practically begging, it was so pitiful. Ellie placed a hand to your shoulder and shoved you against the wall.

“God Y/n just STOP IT!”

You melted under her agonizing touch, “W-why not me?” You stuttered and took in her hot breaths that hit your face as she panted through her frustration. It wasn’t much longer till the two of you could no longer restrain.

Ellie stared at her dirty converse to avoid your pleading eyes, “I just can’t, I can’t cheat. I'm not a cheater.” She was shaking her head profusely as if to rid her mind of the lustful thoughts that consumed her. She wanted you so bad it hurt. You took her face in your hands and lifted her gaze to yours in a last attempt.

“Ellie-,” you gasped, as the aching became unbearable. You’d surrender to her touch right now if she only asked. As Ellie looked back at you, she wished Cat didn’t exist, you were all she ever wanted and you were right there. She just had to say the words and you’d be hers.

Ellie’s head fell into the crook of your neck in desperation. Her hands moved up and down your clothed body searching for some sort of release.

“Ellie please, I need you.” you whimpered into her ear. The vibrations sent a shiver of pleasure down her spine and just like that she snapped. All her morals disappeared as she found your wrist and grasped it firmly, leading your hand to the waistband of your pants.

She whispered back, “show me.” With her permission your hand darted down to the ache. You slid your fingers through the mess Ellie invoked with just her words before stopping on the big ball of nerves that begged to be touched.

Before you could ease the yearning down below, Ellie interrupts, “I said show me.” A smirk grew upon her face as she watched you discern the meaning of her risky comment. You retrieved your fingers in obedience to Ellie and were prepared to do whatever else she asked.

Immediately, Ellie took your sticky fingers and brought them to her plump lips. Slowly she planted kisses from the tips of your digits down to your knuckles. It felt like a dream. Of course, Ellie knew she should stop, but when her freckled nose caught the sweet smell of your juices she dreamed of tasting them too.

“Put your hands back in your pants.” she demanded with agency. Back inside they went, fingers quick to locate your empty hole. You couldn’t take it, your middle finger gently slid in and a breath escaped your open mouth. You shut your eyes and an in-and-out rhythm ensued. Ellie grew wet herself as she watched you writhe with pleasure. She couldn’t help but tell you.

“I love watching you touch yourself like that.” Her comment evoked a strained moan from your lips as you imagined her fingers inside instead of your own. Ellie cupped her cunt, trying to fight her infidelity but failing miserably.

“Can I see your fingers again please? I- I wanna taste it.”

“Need me that bad?” you teased, like you hadn’t been dreaming of this moment for ages. But Ellie had no time for games and took matters into her own hands. She captured your fingers herself. Her tongue flattened to the length of them before her mouth completely closed in on the treat. She sucked with vigor until your flavor dissipated.

“Tastes so good” she hummed, eyes blown out with pleasure.

“How about you really taste it?” you taunted. The twisted and erotic nature of the interaction left you in a trance.

“You know I can’t Y/n. It- It would be wrong.” Ellie spoke as if sucking your roommates slick right off her fingers wasn’t just as much of a betrayal as any sexual act. At this point morals felt so out of the question but your words from nights before continued to repeat in her head.

“Me? Mess it up for you? Don’t worry Ellie, you can do that all on your own, believe me.”

She was at odds with herself, not knowing whether to dive in head first or run away while she could.

“Please Ellie, I need you inside me.” you begged. She brushed the back of her hand down your face apologetically and planted a kiss on your forehead.

A single tear fell as she said, “I just can’t do this. I have to go,” and turned towards the door. Ellie disappeared out of the room and you sunk to the floor, defeated once more. I guess old habits really do die hard.

After Ellie left, she didn’t show back up to your dorm for the next 3 days. At first you were pissed off and hurt, but the longer she was gone, the more that bitterness turned into worry. She became the only thing on your mind. You had tried calling and texting but to no avail. Out of desperation, you even decided to ask Cat in class. Dina supervised from afar as you confronted her.

“Cat, I know you don’t like me, but can I please just ask you something,” you said with hesitance.

“Great observation! You’re right, I don’t like you. Now, what do you want?” she snapped.

“It’s about Ellie, I haven't seen her in 3 days and I’m really worried. Do you know where she is?” Cat paused to think before she gave you an answer.

“She’s been staying at my place. Is there a problem? I mean, I am her girlfriend,” she scoffed. Truthfully, Cat hadn’t seen Ellie for the past 3 days either but God forbid she let you find that out. She didn’t want you thinking you had any sort of chance with her girlfriend now that she seemed to be getting iced out too.

Of course, her plan worked just how she wanted and you were just about ready to give up on Ellie. You walked back to your dorm dragging your feet hopelessly. When you arrived you were greeted by none other than the girl who’d been fueling your worry.

“Ellie? What the fuck. What are you doing here?”

“I mean, I live here right?” she answered while rummaging through her things. Here she goes again, pissing you off like usual.

“I thought you did too until you went awol for 3 whole days without saying a thing. If you wanna stay with Cat that bad just tell me. I don’t need you sparing my feelings. You’ve already done enough.” Your anger spoke for you and Ellie was baffled.

“Cat? What makes you say that? I’ve been at my parents this whole time.”

You snapped, “Don't lie to me Ellie, I know you were at her place. If you love Cat so much, just be with her and leave me the fuck alone.” Ellie then grabbed her guitar and slinged on a backpack.

“Fine, I will leave you alone. I have a show to be at anyways.” And just like that, gone again.

You replayed the past hour in your head and considered the fact that maybe Ellie was telling the truth. Cat was never known to be a saint, so her lying all of the sudden seemed likely. This time, instead of waiting for Ellie to come back around, you decided to chase after her.

You quickly threw on a revenge outfit and put on some mascara. You stared in the mirror at your black mini skirt and tight crop top. You couldn’t deny it, you looked fucking hot. The peak in confidence pushed you right out the door and to the venue of Ellie’s show.

When you arrived her band was already on stage playing. You realized this was your first time ever hearing them together and decided to really soak it in. Ellie looked so happy doing what she loved despite all the drama happening off stage. She was even better than you thought. You watched as she plucked the strings and bobbed her head along with the beat. You hated how much it turned you on. The tattoo you loved so much was on full display and her arm muscles flexed with each chord. She’d occasionally bite her bottom lip in concentration and it drove you wild. Her set finally finished and you were more than pleased, mentally and physically. Ellie got off stage and you quickly ran after, shouting her name.

“Hey can we talk please? I wanna say sorry.” you explained.

“Fine, come with me to the bathroom, it’s quieter there.” She grabbed your hand and led you. You pushed yourself up to sit on the marble counters that housed the sinks. Ellie looked you up and down, waiting for you to speak. She took note of how good you looked before frantically spewing an apology.

“I’m sorry for accusing you of lying. I was stupid and asked Cat if she had seen you recently. Of course she told me you’d been with her and I blindly believed.”

She seemed to be listening so you continued your ranting, “I really hate to fight Els. I miss having fun with you. I wanna move on from everything and just be happy. Together, me and you.” You looked up to flash her some puppy dog eyes when you noticed her attention being diverted.

No matter how hard Ellie wanted to pay attention to what you had to say, she couldn’t help but stare up your skirt. Your positioning on the counter gave her the perfect sneak peek of the space between your legs. Once you had caught on to her pervy behavior Ellie fumbled to save face.

“Shit sorry um, I was just, uh, you have cute panties.” She then flashed you a sideways smile trying to make up for that dumpster fire of a “save”.

“You don’t have to apologize, Els.” A cocky look spread across your face and Ellie recognized what game you were playing.

“Well then I’d just like to say, the wet spot on them is even cuter.” Your face turned hot as you registered the fact that the same girl who made you soak through your panties was about to be the one to take them off.

Ellie slotted herself between your knees as you sat on the counter. Shock turned to hunger in a matter of seconds as you practically consumed each other. Her mouth engulfed yours as if there was no need for air. You desperately clung to her body, using your legs to pull in closer. Ellie grabbed at your chest as she slipped her wet tongue into your desperate kiss. You gasped into her mouth when she found your nipples through the thin fabric of your top. She twisted them with power before removing your shirt completely. Ellie separated from your mouth for just a split second to admire the beauty before her.

“You’re fucking gorgeous,” she gushed and then used both hands to push your legs apart. Your cunt was on full display through the soaked fabric, your skirt bunched up around your hips. Ellie used her calloused fingers to trace the delicate folds peeking from the cloth and you jolted as she brushed past your sensitive spot. She hooked into your panties to scootch the fabric to the side before you suddenly interrupted.

“Ellieeee, we’re in a public bathroom.” She pouted at you with desperation. Ellie needed you now. Out of pure impulse, she grabbed you by the hips, hands cupping your ass, and stumbled with you into the big stall.

“Take them off” she demanded. You seductively slipped the pink, lace thong you were wearing down to your ankles. The cold air alone on your exposed folds was enough to send a sensation through your body. Ellie retrieved your littered painties and shoved them into her pocket for “safe keeping”. She remained on her knees in the tight bathroom stall and began planting kisses on your inner thighs. These kisses turned into small bites as the shared arousal became overwhelming to your senses.

Ellie eventually found her way to right where you wanted her. Her fingers spread you apart taking mental note of each delicate fold. You gasped in pleasure, as if to urge her to continue. The wet sensation of her tongue finally met your aching clit and a sultry moan escaped your lips. Your opening clenched at the contact as she coached you through the bliss that was her mouth.

“I know it feels good but you gotta be quiet for me baby. Just breathe.” You had barely gotten the hang of keeping calm before her fingers dove in to give you twice as much satisfaction.

You gripped Ellie’s forearm for support as she twisted in and out of your throbbing cunt. She was determined to make you feel good. She needed to make up for her bad behavior.

With that thought in mind, she dove back in with her mouth followed by the curling of her fingers inside you. You couldn’t help but screech and Ellie quickly shot a hand up to cover your mouth. So goddamn noisy. As she continued, you inched closer and closer to the precipice of an orgasm.

The bathroom brimmed with the wet sounds of Ellie’s tongue lapping you up, her fingers assaulting your hole, and the moans she did her best to muffle. But, suddenly, those weren’t the only sounds that filled the room.

“Ellie? Baby, is that you?”

Nothing kills me more than the fact Bruce’s reaction to seeing Branch is to literally pick him up, toss him in the air, give him a wet Willy then proceeded to try to “attack” him before Poppy stepped in

I struggled to go about these properly ; I love the fact he is a dad and I absolutely love Brandy and his insane (pos) kids, I like to think Brandy is a-okay Bruce was with someone else, much as he’s a-okay with her being with to others as well it’s a mutual thing between them

“Oh sorry a Wet William”

I headcanon his to be 6’0 btw !!

━━━━━━━ ✦❘༻༺❘✦ ━━━━━━━

. . . ⇢ ˗ˏˋ First time meeting ࿐ྂ

‗ ❍ He is pretty laid back, I mean come on, he owns a vacation style restaurant and surfs

‗ ❍ very attentive to you, being a father does help, eyes always locked onto yours, arms on his hips in fists, body facing you, overall just making sure you know he has his full attention

‗ ❍ gosh he’s so interested in whatever you’re saying, ranting babbling

‗ ❍ of course you knew him while he was in brozone, and you couldn’t help be a little excited and all over the place, he just smiles oh so fucking sweetly at you

‗ ❍ UGH he just nods and is so fucking polite listening to you

‗ ❍ once you’re done your overall hyperness and shock, he would pull you into a side hug and just hug you gently

‗ ❍ fuck I know he would introduce you to brandy and his kids, smiling up at her and her smiling at you

‗ ❍ he would so totally cook for you too

‗ ❍ teach you to surf

‗ ❍ loves sitting on the beach at a fire with you

‗ ❍ so let’s you play with to his hair

‗ ❍ dad jokes, you cannot escape them no matter how hard you try

‗ ❍ he’s pretty strong too, nearly rivals JD’s strength, I mean come on he definitely picks his kids up every once in a while so he has to be strong to do that

‗ ❍ this man is so easily riled up and persuaded into doing things even if he doesn’t want to - mean did you see how quick his kids and poppy got him to sing? All because he was flabbergasted that his kids didn’t believe he was popular - yeah you do that to him a lot because it’s funny AND HE IS OKAY WITH IT

‗ ❍ sings to you whenever you ask, used to just get a private thing, but it’s anywhere and anytime you want it to be now

. . . ⇢ ˗ˏˋ Him crushing on you ࿐ྂ

‗ ❍ he knew immediately, had the conversation with Brandy as soon as he figured those feelings out - she was all for it, she found you attractive and a good person to bring into the relationship, plus you were good with their kids

‗ ❍ THEY HAD AN EXTREMELY HEALTHY CONVERSATION WITH YOU ABOUT IT AND GAVE YOU ALL THE TIME YOU NEEDED TO FIGURE IT OUT

‗ ❍ once you made your decision, Bruce was over the moon, he smiled so big his eyes squinted up and his fangs on full display for you as his tail wagged behind him fast - he felt like a teenager all over again

‗ ❍ holds your hand whenever he can - all the time

‗ ❍ always watching you

‗ ❍ eye contact is so more intense

‗ ❍ still takes it slow though- it is different being married and having a partner so none of you guys made it official yet

‗ ❍ explains he would appreciate it if you and Brandy knew each other more - who wouldn’t? She would be an amazing friend to have

‗ ❍ always ALWAYS looking around the room, everywhere to make sure he can see you

‗ ❍ makes you a matching necklace with him

. . . ⇢ ˗ˏˋ Getting together! ࿐ྂ

‗ ❍ it would take a LONG time to get together, roughly 5 months at least

‗ ❍ he would take you out on a nice beach date

‗ ❍ picnic, singing, him playing a guitar

‗ ❍ then he would ask you

‗ ❍ though he would treat you the same way before, you just had a label

‗ ❍ still touchy as ever

‗ ❍ hugs you so tightly whenever

‗ ❍ takes 3 weeks from getting together to finally get a forehead kiss, and a palm kiss

‗ ❍ two more weeks to get one on the lips - kind of sloppy with it since he’s not used to kissing someone his size - fangs shoved against your mouth but you know it’s not his intention to bother you with them

‗ ❍ his claws are trimmed down too! So he doesn’t hurt his wife, kids or you

. . . ⇢ ˗ˏˋ Random things! ࿐ྂ

‗ ❍ tail is on the floor like JD’s just a bit smaller, the tuff of fur at the end lays on the floor while JD’s tail drags behind him a good couple feet

‗ ❍ I KNOW he slaps while on the grill

‗ ❍ hates oranges and lemons, but still takes them to eat from his kids plates and the kids think he loves them - doesn’t care to correct them on that because he loves seeing how happy they get to give them

‗ ❍ draws in his free time, really honed the skills as he draws with his kids

‗ ❍ NAPS, loves them, enjoys holding someone while doing it, especially you since he won’t be crush and he so desires to curl around someone to protect them

‗ ❍ he really does love his Brothers even JD, he still does have some resentment about the events of them splitting apart, but, he’s learned to let it go, they were going, dumb and stressed out ; he has always witnessed the change in JD - he just hides it because he’s the oldest - he understands the struggle needing to appear happy and fine for people

‗ ❍ painted nails all the time because of his kids !!

Two Losers Update

I don't even want to post about these two, but apparently Harry is attending the coronation alone and leaving right away and Meghan is going to stay in LA. She signed up with WME and they are doing a little "we totally are big Hollywood players" pr drive with a dinner at a private club, a Lakers suite, and hints about upcoming projects (fake awards!, rom coms! African HGTV! Tig 2.0!, Archetypes 2.0!, talk show!, etc...). It's all smoke and mirrors with these two. Archie is apparently having a secret celebrity birthday party...just like all his other secret celebrity birthday parties.

None of those projects will materialize. The only marketable narrative they have is the family drama and that isn't really working for them anymore, as the letter drama illustrated. )Of course they leaked it. Why would anyone else leak it?)

This Page Six leak read like extracts from a publicist's memo. "They had to make a decision that was genuine and authentic." "The words that Harry and Meghan have said about the importance of their family are lining up their actions." "For all the people who say they want to be half in and half out of the royal family, this proves just the opposite."

That last quote made me laugh, because they are literally trying to half-in (Harry's going) and half-out (Meghan's not). But the article does get to the heart of their problem--they are seen as fake and as long as they keep leaning into fake family drama (*cough*leaking letters*cough*) they will be seen as fake.

But, of course, they can't help themselves. Even a court case can be turned into family drama, if you're as obsessed as these two are.

That lasted for a hot minute and then everyone forgot about it. And now poor Omid is also desperately trying to create some drama and it's just not getting any traction.

And that's an "ask not for whom the bell tolls" for the Sussex brand. They've spent the last five or so years feeding off the family drama and have built nothing of substance. Now that the drama is fading, it's time to take stock. That's why Meghan is now looking to build her "rich mom" brand. If I were building a "rich mom energy" brand, I'd iron my clothes and show up at the coronation, but maybe that's just me.

When they left I argued that they should go for a lifestyle brand. I think I wrote an entire business plan for them with a new blog and Instagram, some Tik Tok videos, and lots of brand partnerships. I argued Meghan could guest host The View and then go on to have her own show with some political word salad and guest stars.

However, I don't think that's an option for them anymore. They are now too closely associated with royal family drama. That's their brand now, whether they like it or not.

I guess skipping the coronation is an attempt to move on from that, but I don't think it will work.

I did love the return of the diaper shorts. Hopefully Meghan will now return to the "California street style" (diaper shorts, ripped jeans, and tinfoil minidresses) she favored before her sudden 2017 Princess Makeover and we'll stop hearing nonsense about how Kate is copying her. An "un-Princess Makeover" so to speak.

I think that's what they are aiming for with the relaunch of The Tig (who starts a lifestyle site nowadays???). It's less about the business angle and more about "re-winding" her brand. The problem, of course, is that Meghan's pre-royal brand was bland and unsuccessful. Not sure how they are going to deal with that. Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Aniston, and Drew Barrymore are all doing the "California Hollywood Player" lifestyle with more personality, talent and pedigree than Meghan. It's a crowded field. The only thing that sets Meghan apart is the "Duchess" title and that title is both incongruous and hypocritical.

Can't wait to see what WME does with this mess.

Moving on, I did love the "Moment Harry Went Woke" anecdotes. Apparently, the article has been taken down, lol. The granola story was fantastic. That could be part of Meghan's new brand, "the granola that turned the prince woke."

Honestly after Qatar I was anything but motivated to post, so here it is for Qatar and Texas.

I literally still feel sick thinking about what the drivers had to go through just because Qatar has money. It physically hurts me. I'm honestly just glad that everyone is okay now.

That being said here are my favorite drivers 5,5 months into liking f1:

1. Alex Albon

As always, my beloved. This guy made me support Williams in the first place and now they have become my second favorite team (after Ferrari of course, because I apparently like pain). It sometimes feels like they're the only one's who really care for their drivers.

In Texas I was really stressed out like what do you mean 0,3s away from the points in the sprint race? And what do you mean 11th in the race?

2. Sergio Perez

Checo is the sweetest, I love his smile so much and it felt good to see so many Checo fans over there in Texas, not only haters. He was doing okay this week, but Lewis is getting closer and closer and I'm scared. I just need him to be good in Mexico, otherwise I'm going to quit watching F1 (I would never but please Checo please)

3. Lewis Hamilton

This was a hard decision. But I've been obsessing over Lewis again these past few weeks so he gets 3rd for now. Even though him being good literally tears my soul apart. I want him to be good, but he's a danger to Checo my beloved. I am sooo happy that Mercedes seem to get closer to Red Bull and that Lewis might have even had a chance today if the race had been just a few laps longer. But at the same time, please be worse than Checo.

Also Lewis is one of the very few men that I find breathtakingly beautiful. He is so gorgeous. And I love his tattoos. Especially his hand tattoos.

Fun Fact: My dad watched the Qatar GP with me, which was his first race ever and now he keeps refering to Lewis as the one who never makes it past turn one. Can't wait to tell him that the one who never makes it past turn one almost got Max.

4. Charles Leclerc

This was another hard decision, because I love Charles, but the past few weeks I barely paid attention to him (not because I didn't want to, but because there were so many other things to focus on, plus Uni sucks). I have thought about putting him on 5th, but who am I kidding, I love Charles too much and when he took pole I basically had the same reaction as Matt from p1. But I didn't really have time to be sad, about him losing P1 so early, because there was so much happening.

Also both Ferraris have been doing quite good, just not good enough, which is sad, but at least they didn't have any major strategy fuck-ups.

5. Lando Norris

I almost put him in 4th. This is mainly because I totally fell in love with Team Quadrant and was watching almost all of their youtube videos. Texas quali was the first time is tuned in to Max Fewtrell's watch along and I couldn't help but cheer along for Lando. And for the first half of the race I thought that there might be a chance for him to get his first win. It's kinda frustrating watching him being on the podium every weekend but never on the top step.

Honorable mentions:

Lance. He's really close to taking 5th. I might just have two 5th places next time. I might feel for him even more than I feel for Checo. And that means something. My boy passing out in the car in the middle of the race in Qatar? I literally couldn't sleep after reading about all of this. Just imagine the things that could have happened. I could cry just thinking about it. And then the dnf in the sprint race in Texas. He was doing so good and then that. But at least we got some Strollonso content and two stroints. Good race for him today.

Logan. I didn't think I'd ever say that, but Logan has kinda sneaked his way into my heart. He's nowhere near the top five but same as Checo and Lance, I just want him to have a good race for once. Qatar might have opened my eyes about him. That he was the only driver with the balls to retire for the sake of his health. And a big thanks to Williams for being so lovely. I feel like no other team would be so understanding. Sure you could say they have nothing to lose, but still. It takes some bravery to do. And I'm happy they did.

Also the Texas race was quite good, happy for Logan. Even though the rest of the weekend sucked.

Fernando. I don't know how and when it happened but I feel myself growing fonder of Fernando every day. I realized during quali when I was really upset that both Williams, both Astons and Hulk were out in Q1. So, all five of them, drivers that I wanted to see doing well. And the dnf in the race sucked so bad. Both Astons did so well and then that.

But then again, at least we got some Strollonso content. Fernando always pointing his camera at Lance is so cute.

Also him dead ass asking the team to pour water over him in Qatar might be my favorite thing ever.

Nico. Also no idea where that came from, but I realized that I have developed a huge soft spot for Nico. It started with me being interested in how he does because he's German. Then I started to genuinely like him and now I have this huge soft spot for him. It's not like he's competing for the top five though. It kinda feels like he has his own category (again, might be the German in me talking). I respect him big time, spitting facts about how shitty Haas is and frequently driving that shit box into the points. But I don't really search for content about him. Except for Hulknussen every now and then.

Speed round:

Oscar's safe (mad respect, many would have sent that into the wall) and stupid dnf. Also Loscar is kinda cute.

Alpine being sponsored by Travis Kelce. I just think it's funny how the whole Taylonso thing comes full circle now with Tay's new boyfriend basically buying Fernando's ex team.

Also Esteban just casually talking about throwing up in his helmet...

Nico Rosberg. I initially didn't like him, but he does spit facts and I appreciate that.

Yukierre. They're too cute for my little heart.

Pierre and Danny Ric. It's crazy to me how two drivers who literally used to be my favorites at some point are now totally irrelevant to me. I still like them, but in a normal way. Which is weird. I'm not used to being normal about something.

F1 acadamy slaying. And Bianca in McLaren :)

Women.

(Please can we talk about queen Susie?)

That's it for now. Give me your thoughts.

Elizabeth Olsen, Serena Williams, Jennifer Lawrence, Celine Dion, Zendaya, Michael Jordan, and Robin Williams might remind you that younger children can have huge potential for success! I totally get that MC has been denied opportunities and sheltered so they start out on the back foot. But to be honest I’m not interested in playing as someone whose background is only used as a simple pass/fail and will give no flavor text. To be blunt I don’t want to perpetually play as the most useless person in the room. I think it’s a cool concept to have others actions/reputations hang over the MC, but I don’t want my MCs actions to have no consequence. Even if it’s just a MC who was super friendly to everyone and the party privately feeling frustrated when a noble is cold to them or being eh if they are more aloof. I’m not trying to say that eldest kids or middle children aren’t successful; anyone can be successful if they have the willpower and luck.

— a probably overly triggered youngest sibling who carries their fam

Hi anon.

You come across as a little combative in this ask, at least in my point of view, so forgive me if that is not the case, but it will colour the tone of my response.

If this is your way of telling me your expectations of the game, then I do not appreciate your phrasing and the tone of writing in doing so. In the future, I would prefer something more gentler or polite. Had not included your last line about being triggered and perhaps are acting emotionally, I would have deleted and ignored it completely. You are allowed to be honest and blunt, I welcome it, but your writing prose in this instance makes you sound aggressive, rude and accusatory and I do not like that.

Now onto what I think are your concerns:

The whole point of the game is that main character's agency allows for the change in the Empire. The MC's choices are important and they are game changing and consequential. I promised that on the game's very first post. I would not have made it an IF if that were not the case. It would take less effort to write a book.

There is no doubt that younger siblings can be successful. If I did not believe that, then I would not have made the MC the youngest child who can ascend the throne despite all the cards stacked against them.

In the original ask that I was responding too was in regards to any established preconceptions of the MC as of Chapter 1. I never said that being the youngest meant they could not rise above their siblings. I decided that considering the circumstances of their station or birth and past family history, there are preconceptions about the MC that will eclipse who the MC actually is as a person. And that preconception colours the MC's reputation to the rest of the world.

Birth order does not beget success. But using your example above, I can also say that some of those people are successful because of the efforts/privileges of the people that came before them. That they were born in better socio-economic circumstances than others, that their parents made the right connections/knew the right people, that they were born into the right family, the right coloured race, so on and so forth. Some of it might be true, some of it might not. But that doesn't matter if I believe it's true. It's a preconception that I have. This is what I am talking about when I mean there are preconceptions are being held against the MC no matter what they do.

This is only Chapter 1. Everything has to start somewhere and I made the informed decision to have all MC(s) start on this controlled platform because when there are too many variables in place, things become out of hand. This story is already too complex with multiple layers of nuances that must be juggled.

If you want your MC to be independent and ascend the throne. That is a choice that I allow players to make. There will be consequences. There will always be consequences. I will punish you for being cruel. I will punish you for being kind. You cannot make everyone happy. You can only do what you think is right. You can be as selfish or selfless as you want.

But I will say this as a warning: If my response to that original ask triggered you, then you will not enjoy the beginning of Chapter 1. Prior to drafting this response, I had just finished writing a group of scenes involving a character that is more of asshole than Eirik. He will humiliate you and look down on you for things out of your control and you will not be able to respond properly because he will be right.

Have a nice day.

#answered asks #tsr #sorry if this is too negative #or if i'm being too sensitive #but I prefer people to be polite and not aggressive in the asks okay?#but I will always welcome funny asks #I try my best to answer every ask in my inbox #Very long I'm sorry.#MC

hello , im the one who asked about avengers 5 .

I meant inc and what did you think about Nadia and Hank finally interacting ?

Thanks for clarifying!

I kind of... It's a complicated one. I've really wanted these two to interact for a while, so maybe I've had really high expectations, but it felt weirdly... eh? Like, Nadia idolised Hank for most of her life. He is the whole reason why she tried so hard to escape from the Red Room–she wanted to see her father, and she was heartbroken when she found out he died before she could have met him. Hank, meanwhile, only ever became a superhero because of Maria's death. That was what made him become a superhero. His wife had died, and he didn't even know she was pregnant.

And because of this, if you were gonna have them meet... I think it should have been in a Nadia book or a Hank book. Not a Janet book, because it's important for Janet to do things that aren't to do with her ex husband or her ex husband's daughter.

The moments themselves were cute, but the pacing was so strange in that issue it was hard to appreciate them, and I don't know how to feel about Hank fucking off into the void with some supervillains. Like, no, Hank is not someone who makes good decisions, I can appreciate that, but he was also someone portrayed as feeling a good deal of responsibility and love towards William, so it feels odd he would seemingly have very little actual interest in getting to know and learn about his daughter. Like even in the short moments they had I didn't feel like they majorly cared about learning about one another. Mark Waid did a better job with the fake Hank in that Nadia and Scott teamup, which had more emotional impact because you felt her emotions far more clearly from her perspective.

I'm genuinely trying not to be overly critical because I think this book ultimately wasn't for me but I do feel frustrated that this is how they met. Not one of the most impactful things to have happened in either of their lives, but in about 3 pages total in a book mostly about badly replicating Noir plots with superheroes and Ultron is there. Like, this should have been an entire issue dedicated to meeting, figuring out what their relationship is going to be, learning about one another proper and not from word of mouth. It shouldn't have been from the perspective of a character Al Ewing fundamentally does not understand and cannot write.

I dunno. I like the moments in a vacuum but as a story I felt let down in a lot of ways and this meeting after coming close to a decade of build up did not stick the landing and felt bizarrely inconsequential. Also, the Hope line mixed with Old Hank put me in far too much mind of MCU Hank for my own liking. Like, yes that's what her name means, but Hank did not know Maria was pregnant so the dialogue is. odd.

THESE ASK CONTAIN SPOILERS FROM THE FAMILY PLUM TREE!

I know, its heartbreaking 😭😭 Just when you thought Willanor and their family live happily ever after - the rug gets pulled out from us 🤧

Yes, and you can choose that ending nonnie! Officially, that’s where the story ends for me. I’m not exploring what happens after, so if you want to pretend all these tragedies don’t happen, that’s okay!

Yes, she gets away from her cheating husband! She is FREE!!!!! with her doggies ofc! I mean if in your mind you think they end together, I’m not fighting it! Tamsin’s ending is open for interpretation!

😭😭 yeah, Ingrid dies and it was so freaking hard to write! she was the last one I worked on cause I kept postponing it 🥺 and Laurie honors both his siblings! Milian and Ingrid!

@time-to-hit-the-clouds OMG!!! I can totally imagine that! I would watch each and every single one of those documentaries!

@wa-royal-tea it’s almost like they are cursed 🤔 AND WHAT??!!! i swear I have written proof you knew about Emi!! I shall give it to my lawyer 😋

they can’t 😭😭 but at least one good thing happens 🥺 Chriszola ending up together ❤❤❤

I’ll tell you, they both hurt! I remember when I first learned Daria was considering killing Emi off in a car accident. She was just a kid in her story by then 😭😭 and Ingrid my sweet baby Ingrid! That truly made me cry cause it was just so unexpected for her family and they had just lost Eleanor the year before!

@utamuse My heart hurts too! Why do you think it took me so long to work on it? I was breaking my heart left and right!

His Grimalldi side really did come out! But, he had to exile her. It was expected. With Helene out of Monaca, it gave the people the chance to see Leonora as their Crown Princess.

EYE - 😳😳😳😳 You are so right nonnie! 😅

Same. It would have been too hard on her and even Max to see their family handle all that tragedy 😥

@nadhirahhamidun me to hun! me too! Bttersweet is the right word for sure.

Eleanor became Queen 😭😭

He was a bit disappointed, but respected her decision. The dynamic between Milian and Elora changed a lot! Their marriage was never the same, but they remained married. Elora supported her daughter.

William was completely heartbroken about his baby girl but he had to push aside his grief for Leonora.

Zola and Chris reunite romantically YEARS after Emi’s death. Amelia didn’t have anything to say about it - and Zola worked really hard to help repair Chris and his kids relationships.

Yes, the Grimalldis were hit really hard back to back. First Eleanor and then her sweet Ingrid 😭😭 That was the hardest thing to write. Her and Jacob leaving Leonora an orphan.

Milian and Laurie grew closer after the plane crash, They both loved their sister.

Yes, I knew Ingrid was going to have a short life. I didn’t know until recently that her daughter would one day be Queen. It just felt right.

🥺🥺🥺💔💔💔

yeah, i was shocked when I first learned Daria planned on emi having a short life 🤧 though it could change if she ever comes back but from what I remember Emi was going to die young. Chris growing distant from the kiddos because he felt guilty he survived while their mother did not was also something she was toying with and I decided to go with it because that would be the one thing he could never imagine doing. Being an absent father like his own was. Yet, his grief got in the way.

Surprise!!! 😳😳😳

13 Books Tag Game

Tagged by @mothmage 🖤

1) The last book I read:

Ghost Of by Diana Khoi Nguyen. This is a book of poetry I read for my Intro to Poetry class - it deals heavily with grief, having been written in the aftermath of the death of the author's brother, and if you like free verse, concrete poems, or stream-of-consciousness-like verse, this would definitely be something to check out. Also Othello by William Shakespeare :3

2) A book I recommend:

If We Were Villains by ML Rio! It's about a bunch of theatre kids going to an arts conservatory to study Shakespeare. People fuck, people do drugs, people get murdered, and like half the cast is gay and repressed about it. The prose is really vivid, and overall, I'm just super impressed with the story and the characters Rio created!

3) A book that I couldn’t put down:

Interview with the Vampire by Anne Rice. I know this is a Vampire Chronicles blog so that seems rather obvious but I truly was captivated by this book. Checking it out from the library was one of the best decisions I ever made.

4) A book I’ve read twice (or more):

I'm going to cheat for this one and do a play instead: Hamlet by William Shakespeare. I first read it in school in junior high, then again on my own my sophomore year of high school, and I've flipped through it several times since then. As much as I love other Shakespeare plays like Much Ado About Nothing and Twelfth Night and Romeo and Juliet, I never seem to run out of things to say about Hamlet. It's just so rich.

5) A book on my TBR:

Ohhhh soooo many sdljkfklfjasklfsjlkjfskl. But my friend gifted me Plain Bad Heroines by Emily M Danforth for my birthday and I figure I should get around to it at some point 😅

6) A book I’ve put down:

A year or two ago, my mother came home from Target with Ramses the Damned: The Reign of Osiris by Anne and Christopher Rice, because she saw our goth mom's name and figured I'd appreciate it since I like the Vampire Chronicles. It's not the first in the series, and I was having a hard time connecting to these random new characters, so I closed the book after a few pages and it's been sitting untouched on my bookshelf ever since 😅

7) A book on my wish list:

Every year for my birthday and Christmas I ask for one or two Shakespeare plays because I want to collect the full set (of all the ones I'm interested in LOL). Next on the list is The Comedy of Errors.

8) A favorite book from childhood:

Ummmm I'm trying to think. I have an abridged version of Little Women by Louisa May Alcott that I read several times in fifth and sixth grade, so I'll go with that. (hilariously, I remember almost nothing about the plot of the book now)

9) A book you would give to a friend:

I'll go with Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen because that is currently the book that I have been badgering my bestie to read lol

10) A book of poetry or lyrics that you own

The aforementioned Ghost Of but also Girl's Guide to Leaving by Laura Villareal, also something I read for my poetry class, and also something I would totally recommend!

11) A nonfiction book you own:

So many, mostly for school. Gender: Ideas, Interactions, Institutions by Lisa Wade and Myra Marx Feree (3rd edition) is something I bought for my sociology of gender class a few semesters ago, and I would highly recommend! It is very enlightening and full of interesting facts.

12) What are you currently reading:

Blood Canticle by Anne Rice! It's wacky as fuck but you know what, I'm actually enjoying myself. I just haven't gotten very far because I'm super busy with school this semester so I haven't had as much time to read for pleasure sadtoad.jpg

13) What are you planning on reading next?

The next play my Shakespeare class is reading is The Taming of the Shrew, so I guess technically that sfdasffasdf. For VC, I'll move on to Prince Lestat after finishing BCan.

Lowkey I've been thinking about an aftonschmidt fic that centers around Mike's employment at freddy's being way longer than what it was in the movie. Throughout the fic I was thinking that... Mike is in a sort of 'boiling frog' situation, with the heat escalating so subtly and so slowly that he doesn't really notice. William starts as the overly friendly career counselor, but eventually, he manages to worm past Mike's defenses and begins to plant the seeds of an unhealthy dependence.

William goes out of his way to kill Mike's old babysitter, he listens to Mike's anxieties of his aunt and kills her as well, he makes sure that no one gets to close to him. Mike is completely and utterly alone, with William swiftly coming to Mike's side as his one and only friend. He listens to all of Mike's vulnerabilities, his fears, his insecurities, his dreams- all of it, all of it for him and him alone. William could admit to himself that at first it was just a passing amusement, but that amusement twists itself into an extremely real obsession with a nice dusting of possession atop it as well. Mike is his in his mind, he was his the moment that what he wanted was to not kill him- but own him, possess him, watch the helpless fire burn in his eyes while he attempts to fight him. But, that's all in due time, until that point, William is careful of making sure he barges his way into every factor of Mike's life and takes every inch given to him. Mike is the one who opened the door to him, who accepted every offer, who trusted in William's comfort- so Mike shouldn't feel upset at all, after all, William is so kind and he was the one who made the decision to accept William's kindness after all...

Just, I really the idea of a more slow burn approach to whatever the fuck William and Mike have going on here. In this fic I don't think they'd be explicitly sexual or romantic in the beginning, but instead William is the biggest goddamn tease in the universe and purposely plays innocent. Mike is afraid to call him out on it or even presume that William would be so underhanded- so he just assumes that he's looking far too into things. William totally isn't trying to wind Mike up so so damn hard that he wants Mike to break under the pressure of his own dependence and lust towards him. To such an extent that William wants to watch Mike melt from the inside as he tries to keep his desire under wraps. If anything, William thinks it's the most damn cute and pathetic thing he's ever seen in his life. Mike's desire is a starved thing, and he has every intention to drag it out until Mike is quite literally on his knees willing and begging for anything that William is willing to give him.

Sometimes William even likes to check in on Mike while he's at work :) now, Mike may not know that he's there because he's sleeping, but William has his own needs as well... he may be denying Mike, but he won't be denying himself :)

Also a random scene I have in mind is William purposely setting a fire in the Schmidt house, specifically in Abby's room, so that the entire house goes up in flames. William had a brief hope that Abby would suffocate or die to the flames, but she sadly did not do either. So instead he offers for Mike and Abby both to live with him until they're able to get back on their feet <3 isn't he so nice <3 anyway William totally isn't sadistically pleased to have Mike so close-

#I lovelockeelovellvrlovrlovrlelove toxic gay fuckers #william is fucking gross and evil as shit. I still wish I was mike here tbh

CROSSROADS

Hello everyone! I am alive. That's what you feel when you write after almost one year. This is my submission for @choicesprompts hosted by @angelasscribbles and@dcbbw . A big shoutout for both these ladies who held my hand as i took baby steps into the writing arena again.

I would also like to announce a Tag-list clean up because I have recently resurrected so there may be people who moved on. Totally fine. Please drop in a reply or message if you want to be tagged. I am going to tag only few in this who have peeped in to check on me past few months.

Book: RoE and TRR crossover

Characters: Leo, Katie

Word count: 1608

Disclaimer: All characters belong to pixelberry.

Rating: Mature

Warning: Angst?

Prompt: @choicesprompt appears in italics.

This is in future. Leo left the cruise and Katie married William. She had no idea who Leo really is.

The cool wind pushes my hair back as I walk along the familiar path, every step taking me deeper into the past. It’s been years since I’ve been here; everything is different.

Everything is the same.

I’m not paying attention to the present as I walk, I’m too lost in memories of long ago. That’s why I don’t notice the person walking towards me until I hear a familiar voice call my name.

I freeze. It can’t be. What are the odds?

I lift my head as my eyes dart wildly around before finally landing on a face I’d recognize anywhere, even now.

“It’s you.”

“Surprise, surprise.” He shrugs his shoulders, his hands tucked in the pockets of his jacket. His attire looks expensive and pretty stylish unlike I saw him last time. One thing that hasn’t changed is his looks. Against the backdrop of the Acropolis, his charming smile seems unaltered even after fourteen years.

“What are you doing here?” I can not hide the excitement in my voice.

“Well, I told you when we first met, I belong to a small island here. In fact, I should be asking you, what are you doing here?”

“I came with my husband.” I wince inside. I should have skipped that detail.

“William Sloan.”

My eyes widen, “You know?”

He gives his signature smile and brings up the past casually. “When you are waiting for someone and that someone walks away with another man, right in front of your eyes, you know.”

“I am sorry Leo, but…”

He raises his hand cutting me mid sentence, “That’s absolutely fine, Katie. You made your choice. Everyone has the right to. I made mine.”

“Not all choices turn out to be right decisions, do they?” My eyes search his with some hope. What was I thinking?

“You are not happy with William.” Instead of asking, he just makes a statement. As if he knows it all. How does he always know everything?

“How can you say that?” I jut out my jaw defensively.

“Well, I see you walking all alone in the ruins of Acropolis brooding to yourself.”

“Even you are alone.” I try to prove my point. Mistake!

“I never said I am alone. I am with someone.”

“There you go again. Always talking in puzzles and keeping an air of mystery around you.”

“I know I did not reveal my true identity to you on that cruise. But I did plan to tell you everything that night at Captain’s Ball. If only, you would have…..” his voice trails off.

My thoughts drift to that night for a moment. If only…. I had chosen Leo, we would be walking hand in hand now, there would be a life to be happy about, some love to hold me maybe, and a child perhaps! But I cannot let Leo know that. I try to protest.

“I chose William, because he had a stable business, he would have understood my inheritance and my family background.” Why am I trying to argue?

Leo chuckles, “I must say, your inheritance and his business together must be a perfect formula for a happy life then.”

“At least I am not roaming around the roads on a motorbike like a nomad.” I say with a bite in my tongue. As if hurting him will relieve my pain.

“You are right. But sometimes wandering helps find the aim of your life. Sometimes getting out of your rich robes helps to understand the struggles in a life of a common man.”

“Rich robes, huh?” I fan out my hands gesturing at his clothes. “Mr President was surveying the life of commoners. Did you make some great amendments to the law?” I ask sarcastically.

“I can say proudly, I did.” He swells up his chest with pride.

“So, you are a President? Of Timbuktu?”

He gives out a hearty laugh, his head falling back. It’s infectious. I find myself smiling at my own joke, with him.

After a moment, he is suddenly serious and closes the distance between us. I can see his eyes turning to a darker shade of blue. When he is an inch away, he tilts his head, his gaze piercing, he questions, “What happened to the girl who followed the rules?”

My eyes well up and I break the eye contact, looking far away at a distant lone pillar. “Rules don’t work always. Sometimes they ruin what we have.”

“Then make your own new rules.”

I look at him puzzled.

“Come, let’s walk.” He gestures at the narrow muddy track with rocks on either side. I quietly follow.

“Katie, you had love in your life but the next moment you had a lot of money as an inheritance and no love. Yet you kept going.” He stops and admires me, “Even when life was unfair, you never lost hope.”

Is it me? It sounds like he is talking about someone I knew a long time ago. He starts walking again and I trudge along.

“You paved your own path. You bent some rules and faced the challenge thrown at you.” He halts again and turns towards me. “And you know what the best part was?”

I keep looking at him quizzically. He gives a wide smile before speaking again.

“In the short time I spent with you, I saw the bond you shared with your family. You ran back to them even after all the hardships. That Katie, was a lesson for me. I am glad I met you. You played an important role in my decisions and that made me what I am today.”

“I helped you?” I ask him in disbelief.

“You did! I learnt it from you.”

I flay my arms away. “No, no, no! it wasn’t supposed to be like this. I am not the Katie you knew once.” I hide my face in my hands.

Leo holds my wrists and pulls down my hands. “Look at me, Katie. Even I am not the same adventurous crazy guy.”

I raise my damp eyes meeting his gaze. He is still holding my hands in his. “The man you met long time ago was a person running away from his responsibilities, abandoning his people because he was too weak to fight against the wrongs. But meeting you made it all right for me. I carried back the memories of you, your determination to make things right, your spirit to keep it bright.”

I shake my head unable to take it all. I feel the pain I have been through. William has been through. The hurdles we tried to overcome and, in the bargain, falling apart. “I am sure you didn’t have to break the rules and hurt someone to do it all.”

“Katie, you were the one who refused to accept the rules that would harm your dear ones.” He holds my shoulders, as if waking me from my slumber, “If you are done sulking over few lost moments, get up again. If you did it once you can do it again. If you could bring a change in a person like me, you can change anything.”

“I can?”

“Only you can.”

We walk in silence along the track for sometime. He gives me time to mull over my thoughts and to revive back. We come to the part where the narrow lane meets the main atrium.

“Do you still ride on a motorbike?” My curiosity speaks out.

“No.” he grins. “I have had my share of exploration.”

“Guess your expedition gave quite a direction to your life.”

“Much more. I learnt to be a better person and embrace what I have.”

“And yet you stand alone here. Just like me?”

“As a matter of fact, I am not.” He looks at the ground as if he is trying to decide whether to tell or not. Eventually, he points at a young boy in a distance. A tall graceful lady stands with him, their backs towards us. They are busy discussing something looking at the pillars around. “I came here with my wife and son. He wanted to see this place. Curious little archaeologist in making there.” Leo’s blue eyes shine proudly as he fondly talks about his son.

My heart sinks again. He has what I wished for. A family. A family that stays together. Suddenly, I want to hide away all the sadness in my life. I don’t want him to know how empty my life is.

“So, the mystery man does have a family. Good for you.”

“Thanks to you. You see my wife, Madeleine. I was running away from one who had loved me all my life just because I was burdened with unwanted responsibilities that meant doing things that were against my principles.”

“Who are you?” I know him more today yet I don’t know him.

He smiles, “Lets keep that conversation for the next time. Today when I saw a gloomy Katie treading through these rocks, I felt the urge to come and remind her who she really is. What she can really do. And how many lives she has touched. That’s all you need to know and focus on for today. Leave me where I was and take your next step ahead. Life is waiting for you. He waved walking away from me.

I turn to face the setting sun and face my world. With newly restored courage, with newly found aim, with new hope.

I grab my phone and dial to hear the voice that has soothed me most all these years.

“Hello, Katie?”

“William…..” I do what I did the best. Rekindle the love. Get back home.

idk if ur requests are open but,, can I get either hcs or a oneshot for tse dave w/ a alt teenage reader also working the nightshift at the mall?? (platonic ofc) and they just annoy him every chance they get whenever they work their shift w/ him,, he dislikes them bc he doesn’t like their clothing and style like the old man he is but he finds out ltr on their parents kicked them out and they’re literally sleeping on the streets so he becomes more of a parental figure keeping them out of trouble and such?? ty!!,

I like these vibes. William/Dave having to put up with chaotic teens is a funnee vibe>:) (although, I'm gonna go with chaotic teen bc I don't really know anything about alt stuff, very sorry about that/gen)

Dave Miller w/ platonic!teen!reader

-When William had formed his persona, moved a town or two over and started working at a different diner in his own restaurant chain, he didn't think he would ever meet some kid who made him re-think every decision he'd ever made

-But there you were, in all your horrid, teenager glory, loudly screaming lyrics to songs that Dave had never even heard of before

-You found him kinda weird, but mostly funky, calling him things like, "skrunkly" and "blorbo". He has no fucking idea what that meant. He didn't really wanna find out, if he was being totally honest.

-He doesn't know why they need two night time security guards on staff, especially if one of those two is a somewhat annoying teen, but he doesn't say anything about it

-You absolutely write those "kick me" signs and put them on his back, but they say shit like "hug me", "I don't bathe", "my favorite movie is Clueless", and "my wife left me for a pool boy in the Bahamas". Every time it's something new, and every time Dave thinks about stuffing you into a suit and skipping town.

-You spend most of your night time shift avoiding any actual work and trying to get Dave to pay attention to you and have a conversation with you. Sometimes it works, other times it doesn't.

-He's watched you sleep on the job multiple times. Never brings it up to anyone else, though, because you're still in school and you probably need the sleep.

-If you don't have a good home life, Dave's house became a sort of safe haven for you where you would go and forgot your troubles from parents and/or siblings by getting Dave to watch slasher films late at night

-Every time he sees you on his front porch late at night, he considers murdering your family

-Absolutely despises your driving “skills”. Refuses to get in any car that you’re driving

-Just overall a very, "No, I'm not their dad, in fact I fucking hate them. Anyways, kid have you had water and food today?" relationship

(hey guys, sorry i havent made a return, my phone broke and i had to get a new one which is in the process of getting here, so im on my laptop for now)

And he is done! Behold! The USS Kitty Hawk (CV-63) redesign! He looks miles better than his predecessor we don’t talk about...

Art Notes:

-The pose itself was thanks to an amazing reference drawing of the Kitty Hawk by an unknown artist, so huge credit to whoever did create that beautiful piece!

-I basically did the same to KH that I did to the Flysenhower when I did my attempt of him, so I have the blocky colors breaking up the shape of the flight deck. I also extended that to the rest of his features as well (the body itself, the runway markers, etc)

-Unlike the Flysenhower, I used a totally different thematic lighting for this, to give the illusion that KH is perhaps out on the foggy sea. It would be more ominous without his thousand watt smile.

-His hat was really the only piece of his real WoC design that I moved over, just to ensure we all know this is that guy. Funny enough, when side by side, his hat is bigger than the Flysenhower’s. He gets bragging rights.

-His eyes are like a coppery brownish hue? I think somebody said that they might be like green, but mostly for the sake of giving him a tad more difference than the Flysenhower, his eyes were made darker.

A Couple of Headcanons as well:

-Just like Flysenhower in my story “The Decision”, Kitty Hawk was originally a pittie later turned ship, previously gone under the name William (that is, William Bringle, the name of the irl captain of the Kitty Hawk) before his decision.

-KH is pretty up there in age, being numbered 63 (comparitively, Flysenhower is #81, weird because Eisenhower was #69 (har har) so I guess our boi is substantially younger/newer?? I don’t really know).

Soooo yeah! Kitty Hawk! The Less Shitty Kitty! Y’all enjoy, I actually had a lot of fun making this, doing the linework is so theraputic, just making shapes. Much fun to be had. XD

#USS Kitty Hawk #CV-63 #Kitty Hawk #The Less Shitty Kitty #I am honestly so proud of this #I think this came out amazing

(( hi i love all ur gremlins tell us what you like writing about each of them thank u ))

[Oh boy you know I'm gonna go on a rant so bless you for this.

The main thing I love about writing all of them is the complexity of each character. They're all bastards in their own ways, but they all have the classic 'more than meets the eye'.

Nikolai is a right bastard but unfortunately, he's my bastard now I guess. The fact that money is the almighty force in his life, he's willing to fuck over friendships, his comrades and an entire city to get that pay? Yeah, I love that. I also love him in his 'retired' verse where he's trying to maybe make amends while also still making money and you know fuck over a person or three. I love the double talk he manages to do or how he manages to say things while thinking something else.

Jake is emotionally stunted (somewhat understandably) and I like seeing the growth he has. From trying to figure. outwhat emotions are, to trying to deal with the whole 'my dad's dead and I never met him and everyone hates me for him' shit, as well as actually caring about people again? What I love writing about him is that at his core he's good and soft, but life and circumstance have made him into what he is.

The Iron Bull is my king of double talk. He's the one I've written the longest and I still don't feel like I've covered/uncovered all of it. I could write essays on my feelings for Bull and honestly, I just love writing the fact that he's talking the talk but not walking that walk. Not to mention that depending on your decisions and influences you can make him into something he was meant to be.

Charles is the worst corporate bastard and I mean that affectionately. My favorite part about writing him is probably getting to use the hyper-specific knowledge I have and don't get to use it in a creative setting that much. I also love the dynamic and the world-building that I've done in regard to Charles. I will say that I really feel like writing Charles and The Gear brought back my love of writing that I had kind of started to lose and I'll forever love him for that.

Johns- I really do love William J. Johns. I didn't think I could love someone so much after one movie but uh you know what I was wrong. It's how much he really lies to himself and how unwilling he is to deal with his own issues or confront them. I really love the development I've gotten to make with him in his main verse which would be after the dark planet, his survival, and the person he's trying to become. It's great to watch the growth but also the potential backslide into ways that are just easier and more familiar.

All in all- I love getting to flesh out these totally complex characters!!]

Season 11 anon here again, I just finished 11x09 “O Brother, Where Art Thou?” and I have some thoughts that actually aren’t really Sam vs Dean. Like of course I’m thrilled I was correct that it was Lucifer calling to Sam and not God. But Sam isn’t important to my current concerns. I was wondering your take on the Amara/Dean arch and why they took a creepy stance by making her have to grow up. I have so many thoughts and most of them are articulated by a shuddered and a gag. There was the pre-teen Amara stalking Dean and going “See you soon, Dean.” Which is weird but can be shrugged off. But then you have teenage Amara and the dynamic between them in her bedroom after she sends Crowley away. The dialogue just hints to something romantic/sexual etc. And to be fair, I was hoping it was just subtext and I was being weird of the brief moment they had as adults in episodes one. But then they close the episode with young Amara walking down the street to the song “Girl, You’ll Be a Woman Soon” which had me feeling all times of negative ways. Personally, especially after seeing them in 11x09, I think the Dean/Amara chemistry and bondedness (totally not a word but it’s fine) could have been a good and intriguing storyline had that not that type of creepy undertone. And I’ve seen some arguments in situations like these that could spring the argument “Amara is technically thousands of years old so it’s not creepy.” But she was still in the body of a teenager. The more I think about the more I feel like I’m back in a course on an author like William Burroughs in college about to dive into to some incredibly dark and uncomfortable topics that I don’t want to explore. All that is to say, I was interested in your take on that storyline.

Hi! Welcome back :)

Regarding the Amara arc, I'm pretty sure the answer to "why is her growing up portrayed as creepy" is because the entire situation is supposed to be creepy. At least initially (because she's kinda humanized as the show/season goes on). I mean --- and I'm looking at the script as I write this to try and make sure I'm not accidentally spoiling anything --- she's an immortal, all-powerful being with innately concerning undertones (e.g. "I was the beginning and I will be the end. I will be all there is," "I can't be resisted," "We're bonded," etc.) And they've taken the time to emphasize the fact that he literally cannot fully make his own decisions around her (which, in terms of where you are in the show, culminates in him going to take her out with that blade and then immediate transitioning into that kiss). I always interpreted the creepy undertones as an intentional underlay to their interactions. Which, to be honest, kinda made sense to me because she's as connected to the Mark --- the thing that has been perched on his arm, worming its way into his brain, and slowly corrupting his soul --- as he was. So, in other words, I think you're picking up on those implications because the writers wanted those implications there.

However, I want to say that, as of the episode you're on, it doesn't get any worse. (Especially not worse than the teenage scene, about which I felt the same way as you... like, I do see the argument about her being older than she looks, but the scene was deeply implicative in an uncomfortable way.) Please note that it's been a while since I saw these episodes, so I could be misremembering, but I don't remember it getting much worse.

Thank you for the ask, and feel free to keep writing as you continue on! All the best!

So I had a some lore ideas about DL2, especially with now having played through a few times. I don't think Waltz, or Colonel Williams(The Burcher) were inherently evil, per se. Were they 100% good? No. But they weren't evil. Waltz seemed to care greatly for all of those children in his care, and I'm sure he didn't want to be doing what he was any more than they wanted to be there. I have a feeling he was desperate to find a cure, not only for Mia's sake, but for humanity as well. I also don't buy that the GRE wasn't secretly wanting to weaponize THV, possibly even creating bioweapons. Thus testing on all of those kids, plus I guarantee they probably tested on prisoners and others, anyone they could get away with that the world wouldn't likely miss. The GRE and the world's leaders and militaries likely were trying to make weapons to win wars, as world powers tend to do. I honestly also don't believe Colonel Williams was responsible for the chemical bombings of Villedor, I'm sure he had knowledge, yes, but directly responsible? No. I think that other guy, I forget his name right now, I believe he was more directly responsible. Hell, Jack Matt was more evil, he apparently had orders to evacuate and chose not to, plus he wanted Col. Williams dead so badly, and I wonder why? Probably because Col. Williams knew that Jack Matt ignored the evacuation orders, and that was a loose end he couldn't afford to have, because if it got out that the so called Savior of Villedor aka Jack Matt had let all those people die? Not good for his image, I'd wager. He would be finished as the leader of the PK and I bet there'd be loads of pissed off civilians, and other PK, gunning for his head.

I LOVE ALL OF THIS

Anyway!

I have a lot of thoughts on the Dying Light villains and its story line.

More so now that I've made headway with my outline, because the more I think about it the less sense it makes.

Waltz. Totally agree with you. He looked after the kids and he was very likely just trying so hard to find a cure (or, you know, just get Mia through this), like you said. That's the impression we get based on the messages we find, from when Aiden remembers how things really were, and based on the notes the kids themselves wrote.

But. He still had children kidnapped. He still held them hostage. What he did was not right, not by a long shot.

Though let's assume he does it for the love of his child.

... and then he goes completely off the rails. I bought Waltz as a villain who was just straight up a villain, before we knew Mia was his daughter and how she was the driving force behind all of this. I stopped buying him when he was turned tragic by his struggle and his obsession to cure her led him to make a decision to murder everyone in Villedor because for some reason its their fault, when he had the means, the MEANS, THE MOMENT HE HAD THE KEY, to give Villedor AND HIS DAUGHTER life. He must have known what they had stored in X-13. He absolutely knew where it was, at all times (since that is where he did his experiments).

So instead of going "hey we found a key, we can get all those supplies and I can cure my daughter :3" he must have indicated to Dylan and anyone else involved in this that he was going to do something absolutely terrifying, causing Dylan to try and get the key out of the city.

Good job, Waltz.

Was it the compound? Is that was twisted him around so badly? So quickly? And what's up with the hecking timeline.

Report 13, 2036. "Funds are gone. Ran out of test subjects. Jabbing myself now with the compound." What funds? Who funded you? It's 2036, are you saying you were getting literal funds from Williams? Who you are supplying with souped up soldiers? And he ran out of funds? *record scratch* I buy resources. If you swap funds with resources (which is one of the many things I change 'cause I'd lose my mind if I didn't), then the drive to crack open X-13 makes more sense.

Report 20/2036. He sounds more excited. "Lucas found the key! Sent Dylan and a team over to Old Villie to investigate!"

Report 23/2036 He sounds sad. Collected. "Six months since funds ran out. 20 since last improvement. If its true that Lucas found the key then X-13 is the only hope."

Btw all those are dated with 130th day into the year being the latest time stamp, which would make it May, but it's clearly autumn during the game. You can see the seams where the story was patched together after they lost Avellone (which I am not sad about, btw) and the hints indicate something that made more sense.

See, when Aiden arrives in Villedor, Lucas was just murdered. A few days ago. But, you can still hear dialogue of people lamenting that they haven't seen their families in months because of the blockade, which never made any sense to me until I heard Waltz's recordings and figured out the original plan maybe had Old Villedor and the Central Loop disconnected for much much longer.

So. Uh. Sorry, I got carried away. And I wanna scream so much more, but I'd be spoiling like half of the Monsters, We. if I did and I kinda don't want that. If you want me to scream pop into my DMs :3

Oh. Yeah. Williams. This dude confuses me. Supposedly he's the same guy as in the Banshee comic?! And that's Villedor?! I don't buy it?! 'cause gee, talk about comic book villain. Literally and figuratively. And I thought Waltz was supposed to be inspired by Resi Wesker.

Also when I say "I don't buy it" what I mean is: I have heard you, canon. I choose to ignore you.

So did he order the chemical bombing? Fucked if I know. Maybe? Depends if you subscribe to the comic book dude being Williams, which I doubt cause didn't he choke on some of that gas at the end? But then again the banshee with the cure dangling off her neck was in the DL2 trailer and that was in Villedor so, ya know.

But I am also still trying to wrap my head around the inefficiency of the fail-safe protocol which Williams originally stopped (that was one of the first things I smothered with a pillow for Monsters, We.), which is "Let's send a handful of rockets. At a long interval. :3 :3 :3 For no other reason than to give the protag time to stop it but also give us a moral choice :3 :3 :3"

And look at that, I got carried away again.

And I haven't even touched the GRE secretly working on furthering their bioweapons research. *hides Monsters, We. Kyle Crane under a tarp* They'd NEVER. *shocked face*

(They did, they totally did. The GRE were mostly a bunch of wankers.)

I should stop. I will stop.

HAVE A GREAT DAY

#Dying Light 2 #Headcanons are fun #Don't take my rambling too serious I am just very invested in this franchise #I love Dying Light 2 and have nothing but respect for the writers and devs #But at the end of the day canon is a sandbox to me and I like knocking over and rebuilding stuff
