Do I know that Zuko and Sokka's LA actors are queerbaiting? Yes but like who on earth is thinking Zukka would actually be canon EVER? I just think they're hilarious for doing this in the year 2024. I'm just having a blast thinking about some guy from Netflix and the ATLA production crew going "okay Ian, Dallas, we need you to start acting fruity with each other. Yes we know we've cast Mai, Suki and Yue but we will not be mentioning that in the slightest. No I want you to start talking about...let's see here, Blue Spirit fanfiction, Dadkoda accepting Zuko as his son-in-law, secret dating, etc."

Tumblr media
“when can i call you next, darlin’?” hobie’s voice was laced with longing, bass distorted by static at the other end of the phone.
“if you’re quick, we can call tomorrow after 5,” you smiled, and if you were in an 80’s romcom, you’d be twisting the phone cord between your fingers.
“5pm it is, don’t be late,” you can hear his smirk, and a bolt of guilt strikes your chest.
“look, i need to ask something, and i think i already know the answer,” hobie speaks, and you bite your lip in anticipation, “the band and i are playing at a new venue tomorrow, it’s the biggest we’ve played, we’re all dead excited, and…”
a sigh.
“well, it won’t feel the same without you there, pretty.”
if the first bolt wasn’t enough, then the second one lived up to it, striking you into the dead center of your heart. it had been well over 6 months since you met hobie. well, “met”. you’d accidentally called the wrong number one day, meaning to contact a friend of a friend, but typing the last number wrong. picking up at the other end was a deep, almost mesmerising voice, telling you; “no bother, darlin’. it happens, just make sure not to lose this number, wanna hear more from ya.”
“hobie, you know i can’t,” your voice is brimming with remorse and you look to the ground.
“i know, shit with your parents, i get it," he tried hard to hide the disappointment, but his heart twanged with neglect and it creeped through into his words.
parents. strict, all-demanding 'parents'. that's what you told hobie when you first started dating, that the reason you aren't able to see him was because your mother was overbearing and extremely protective – it was a lie. a lie that was eating you up from the inside out. the truth was slightly more grim, however.
years ago, you got involved with a guy at work. a couple brief conversations turned into dates, and dates turned into anniversaries, anniversaries turned into toxic, violent arguments and after a long time of dating, you broke up with him. to say he took it badly, was a criminal understatement. threatening phone calls, showing up at your work, sending you gifts and menacing letters – his signature move was scaring off, and even once harming, any man or potential love interest that you interacted with. it was exhausting, and terrifying.
and hobie was different. he was sweet and kind, but rough around the edges, and his voice dripped in passion no matter the topic of conversation. his promises were never empty, and most importantly – he loved you. and you loved him. the last thing you wanted, was your ex to pop up and scare him off, so you kept it from him. limiting your relationship to phone calls at arranged times incase your ex was keeping tabs.
“i’m sorry, hobie,” is all you could muster, not even scratching the tip of the catastrophic iceberg that wedged the back of your throat.
“it’s okay, darlin’, don’t worry that pretty little head over it,” and just like every phone call, you melted into his words, “i love you, yeah? i’ll call you tomorrow at 5.”
“i’ll be waiting,” you smiled, cheeks flushed at his gentle affirmations, “i love you.”
with a ruckus of movement, and what sounded like a kiss, the call ended, and you stared at the screen silently for a moment. not much longer could you avoid it, and the malten bubble of dread spilled into your gut.
sending him a quick text:
‘good luck tomorrow, handsome. what’s the venue called again? you’ll do amazing x’
you turned off your phone, discarding it on the bed as you climbed into the hole of guilt you’d dug yourself.
Tumblr media
“oi, you ready, blud?” hobie’s band mate yelled above the bustle and cheers from the crowd before them. large, bejewelled hands poised onto his guitar strings, he smirked.
“always.”
with a nod to the roadie, the lights went up, illuminating the stage and instruments, hobie's glowing with a harsh red tint. immediately, his sepia eyes digested the crowd. seeing the flushed, excitable faces staring back at him sent a shot of confidence to his bones, and they moved, strumming the guitar with such vigor that the stage floor shook beneath his feet. cheers erupted, and yet felt oddly empty. it was missing something, and he knew what it was immediately.
he'd truly give his all to have you there, front stage in his eyeline, screaming his songs like gospel. not that he'd ever seen you properly, only seeing teasing selfies you'd sent him over the months you'd been together. he didn't care, inherently, he'd fallen head over heels for your personality; a pretty face was only just a bonus.
however, he did yearn for your touch. to feel his hands in your hair, to kiss your cheek, your nose, your neck. he longed to have you with him, even just doing stupid little tasks, having you by his side through the domestic side of life.
his gall spurred him on, his passion surging through his fingertips, spilling out into the sound waves. the audience were lapping it up, screams and chants only barely audible under the booming power of their set. song, after song, after song his talented blood seeped out onto the strings, and his feet were almost numb from the vibration of the bass.
the final song arrived, and his chest was burning, vision blurry, heart pounding against his chest – and he loved it. it was their biggest crowd, their most excitable achievement so far, and his blood pumped with adrenaline as he finished off the set, falling to his knees as he strum his guitar with one final chord. lights falling, his chest was heaving and his eyes scanned the audience one final time – you weren’t there. he had to accept that.
“that was fuckin’ sick, blud!” his bassist yelled as they exited the stage, palm slapping hobie’s shoulder blade and elicited a wide, ecstatic grin.
“you smashed it, mate,” hobie shouted back over the booming stereo that took their place.
“nah, man, you stole the show,” his bassist shook his head, patting him again in appreciation, “good that your lady’s here to see it, too, she must be proud.”
“i wish, mate,” he sighed.
“did you not see her?” his ears perked up, and at his confused expression, his bandmate continued, “over at the back, by the bar, i didn’t know what she looked like, but she was asking after you. ‘er story adds up.”
"shit," he mutters, feet solid on the ground. his heart pounds, skeptical of your presence, but chest bursting with hope that it just might be you, "look, bro, i need to–"
"go! go, man, go see her," his bandmate pushes him in the direction of the bar, and he almost stumbles over his own feet to push the stage door open, met with the chaos of the crowded bar.
dark eyes scanning the aimless faces, he searched for anyone who could look like you; his stature brought him above everyone else, only by a little, but gave him an advantage to seek you out.
"sorry, i need to get past," he repeated, over and over to unassuming bodies, setting through the chaos to find his peace. pushing out at the back, a wave of light met him, shining through empty pint glasses and illuminating the bar.
there you were.
standing quietly, head nodding along to the blasting instrumentals, drink in hand; you were heart-stopping. and he was pretty sure his did. even if he’d never seen you face-to-face, he’d memorised the soft plump of your lips, alluring light in your eyes, even the way your hair fell against your skin from the photos he'd seen. there was no doubt it was you, and my god, you were beautiful. he couldn’t even stop his legs if he tried, as they carried him over to you.
"y/n?" his voice barely travelled through the sound waves, but it hit your ear like a familiar embrace.
turning to him, eyes wide and bright in the twinkling of the bar lights. you drunk him in, warm eyes swallowing every part of him. you'd seen pictures, again, but it could never compare to him. dark brown skin, soft to its complexion, hugged his bones in every perfect way; folding at the creases of his handsome face. he was tall, very tall, and the detail of the curves and indents of his muscles, altered by the shadows of the dim bar light, made your head fuzzy. god, he was beautiful – nothing that a digital screen could ever portray with justice.
"hobie," your voice was crisper than he was used to, and he would bottle it if he could, "hey, handsome, you got a–"
"come 'ere," he interrupted, essentially scooping you into his tense embrace, melting into your scent, the feel of you in his arms. his heart was pounding against his chest. you wrapped yourself around him, running your hands along his leather jacket, ghosting the skin below it.
"you interrupted my introduction," you pouted against his shoulder, "had a whole little joke planned and everything, you know."
"go on, hit me, love," he pulled back a tiny bit, his arms still glued around your waist, looking down through his lashes. you faltered under his intense gaze, giddy smile bursting onto your face and you buried your head in his chest.
"nuh uh, not anymore," you shook your head against him, "you ruined it."
his hand came up to touch your face whilst you spoke, following the edge of your hairline and tucking your hair around your shoulder. he was in awe, having you here, having you with him. tightening his embrace, he didn't want to let you go – ever.
"mhmm," his voice vibrated his chest, and you pulled away, "i'm sure it was hilarious, love."
"it really was," you chuckled, giddy in his presence.
the air grew thicker, your laughter dying out and left with just his strong gaze, his dark brown eyes following yours. you could barely comprehend him being here, in front of you, around you, and he was so much more than you had imagined. feeling his calloused hand caress your cheek, you leaned into his touch, inviting him into your world. cupping your face, hobie bought himself to you, leaning down until his pierced lips were ghosting your own. months he'd dreamed of this, imagined how it would feel to kiss his girl, to taste your lips and feel your love. he could feel your breath, and you were about to give in, until you pulled away.
"wait, i–" you swallowed thickly, pulling your touch from him.
"what's up, darlin'?" his eyes scanned your face for any sign of reason, "did i do somethin'?"
"no! no, you," you sighed, "you're perfect, it's not you."
he'd be lying through his teeth if he denied the pit of anxiety building deep in his stomach, bubbling up his throat.
"what is it?"
"i–" you stuttered again, and fought to get your words out of your brain and into the thick air of the bar, "i haven't been telling you the truth."
silence. just for a second. hobie's brain working over time.
"look, if you've got another fella, or somethin', just get it over with–"
"no! no, hobie, i'm yours, i promise," your words settled him for a second.
"my parents don't care about us, they aren't strict, in fact, they were happy when i told them about you," you begun, opening the dam.
"they know about me?" his voice was smaller than you were used to, and if your brain had a spare synapse to process it, you'd probably have melted.
"yes, and i'm sorry i haven't told you," you avoided his eyes, "it's my ex."
"oh, fuckin' 'ell," he sighed, dropping his arms to his side, and he's about to speak, until you interrupt.
"we broke up years ago, but he's never left me alone," you ring your wrists with your hands nervously, and hobie notices – you looked terrified, "i've tried everything; i've tried the police, i've moved countless times, i've changed jobs, made new friends, met new people – he won't leave me be."
tears welled up now, and his heart reached for you, but his arms stayed stuck by his side.
"every guy that i meet, he's, i don't know, calling them telling them i'm someone i'm not, or following them home and slashing tires, or roughing them up outside pubs," paranoia enveloped you, and your eyes darting around the crowd, "i was so scared, because you're the best i've ever had, and probably will ever have, and i don't want him to scare you off."
"y/n–"
"and i understand if this has done exactly what i'm scared of, because i get that keeping it from you was awful, but i was only trying to protect you and–"
his lips cut you off, warm against your own, capturing your words and pushing them back down your throat. hands on your cheeks, body flush against your own, you melted into him completely. it felt like heaven, like months of tension and longing unravelling like ribbon into the wind. it was safe, gentle, like a promise – a promise that it didn't scare him, and that he was yours.
"is he here?" his voice was low, lips hovering yours.
"i-i don't know," you were flustered, your brain trying to make sense of it all, but his hand on the small of your back stopped any cognitive thoughts, "i haven't seen him."
watching him, hobie's dark eyes floated around the crowd, before falling back onto you. smirk on his lips, he placed a quick peck onto your cheek.
"hmm, i hope he enjoyed the show," he chuckled lowly, and you couldn't help but mimic it, relief flooding off your shoulders, "how about we go somewhere a bit safer?"
"like where?" you questioned, intrigued by the coaxing tone of his voice.
"well, i only live around the corner," he shrugged, before offering his hand. blushing, you slipped your hand into his, the soft skin of his fingers pulling you towards him, until he threw his arm around your shoulder.
"nothing could scare me off, you know," he whispered, placing a kiss to your hair, "i'm 'ard as nails."
"oh yeah?" you giggled.
"mhmm."
Tumblr media
clothed eyes glued to the suspicious figure, hobie stood on a rooftop, footsteps silent as he follows the man below. tailing him through the cobbled back lanes of london, hobie's back tingled with apprehension – he'd been following him for at least a mile, waiting for a perfect opportunity.
and he'd finally found it.
pausing his heavy stroll, the man dug into his pockets and pulled out a slightly crushed pack of cigarettes, fumbling further for a lighter. a small orange glow lit up the air around him as he puffed away, smoke fluttering to meet hobie's nose.
silently, hobie swung to a platform below, pulling his guitar tighter against his back and dropped to the hard ground. the sound of his leather boots colliding with the cobble made the man turn in his direction, eyes wide at the sight.
"spiderman?" the man breathed between puffs, voice hoarse, "can i help you?"
"you know what, i think you can," hobie strutted, hands stuffed into his leather jacket, lanky stance towering him, "are you y/n's ex fella?"
"who's asking?" he questioned stupidly, and hobie let out a laugh.
"bruv, who's– are you stupid or somethin'?" hobie punched him lightly in the shoulder, "do you not see the whole get up?"
"the fuck have you got to do with y/n?" he spat, defensive stance taking over his body.
"none of your business," hobie knew that would sting, "but you're gonna leave her alone, fella."
"you don't know what you're talking about."
"i'm not askin', mate," hobie stepped closer, "and i'm not givin' you a choice."
before he could even utter a response, hobie had swung his spike-studded arm in his direction, knuckles colliding against the pathetic man's jaw, knocking him to the ground below.
"tha's my girl you're messin' with now."

Pairing : poly!Han Jisung x F!Reader x poly!Lee Minho TW : poly relationship ; obvious angst because ya know ; another famous Nana cliffhanger (but I actually want to write a part 2 for it after making a poll because I want to know what you all think) ; straight to the point angst, no dillydallying here ; Word Count : 4.0k Request : Anonny : Can we have poly minsung plus reader but with angst? I am a sucker for angst. AN : first time writing for poly skz... lemme know how I do... please... I hope you enjoy this, I hope I did this right.
Things had started off fine, and that in itself should have gone to show that things surely wouldn’t stay that way. The relationship in itself wasn’t normal, not to say that it wasn’t perfect, but you knew that if it weren’t for the fact that you had to hide your relationship, fans would be judging you, the entire world would be judging you. Those thoughts used to plague you in the beginning, but you had been so happy… Maybe you should have just listened to your head… Maybe that would have saved you from the ending that you received. To get to the end, we have to start from the beginning… It’ll be short though… It’s not like things had lasted very long anyway. 
You were a secretary at the JYPE office, the job in itself was boring, but you also got to see a lot of stars during your walks through the hallways. There was always one that caught your attention, and he had always been so kind to you, giving you a beautiful smile and bowing his head just slightly to say hello. Your heart would throb and you’d get the most wonderful fuzzy feeling in your stomach whenever you saw him, but you were under a contract, much like he was… Those 1 second interactions in passing were all you were ever going to get… Or so you thought. 
Roses had been left on your desk one day, a secret admirer, the card had read. You weren’t sure where they came from, but they were gorgeous, and you placed them at the corner of your desk, looking at them every so often, and that warm fuzzy feeling would return. You thought that it was just your hopefulness that had you wishing that it was the man in the hallway that had those flowers delivered to you, the back of your mind telling you that it was foolish to hope for such things when he was famous and you were just a 9-5 office worker. 
That is until you were heading out of the office for the day, your bag held close under your arm and your folder of paperwork clutched against your chest. You were the last one out of the office that evening, you had stayed a little past your scheduled time and you assumed that everyone had already gone home for the evening. When you stepped out into the hallway though… There he was. 
“Did you get the flowers?” He asked, leaning against the wall and giving you that beautiful smile that you had so foolishly already fallen in love with. “You’re not going to take them home with you?” He mused, noticing your flowerless hands, and you looked between him and the door to the office that was now shut. You could have gone back in and gotten them, but you were taking the subway home and you didn’t want them to get damaged. 
“I like them on my desk… I think they brighten up the room a little bit more.” You explained, and while it wasn’t exactly the real reason… It was still one of the reasons. “Do you know who sent them? I really want to thank them… Seeing the flowers made me so happy.” You mused, and it felt strange to be talking to him so casually… Maybe it was the fact that you were running on little sleep and 3 cans of energy drinks. You were exhausted, and maybe your mind just let it slip who exactly you were talking to. 
“Of course I know who sent them.” He pushed himself away from the wall and walked over to you, causing you to stumble back a little as the words that had been printed in the darkest bold letters on your contract flashed in your mind's eye like a bright neon sign. “I sent them… And you don’t know how hard it was to get them to your office without anyone knowing. I’m glad you like them though. Do you… Know who I am?” He quizzed, and you slowly, almost robotically nodded your head. 
“Y-You’re… You’re Lee Know… Lee Minho… Best dancer…” You rambled, and with every word that left your mouth you got more and more embarrassed, but you couldn’t stop yourself from going on and on. “I’ve seen you… In the hallway… You’re… I didn’t think… Why did you send me flowers?” 
Now his answer is probably quite obvious considering after only a month of the two of you talking he ended up asking you out. That month can be a story for another day though, because right now, this is the story of how your seemingly perfect little world got turned upside down in what felt like a matter of seconds. 
You and Minho had been dating for 2 months, and in those months there was no one that you got more close to than Jisung. You had heard about their friendship, how close they were, how they almost did everything together… You heard just about everything… But you didn’t really expect the proposition that would be brought to you one night over dinner. 
“Do you want to be my girlfriend?” Jisung had asked, and the question coming from his lips sounded so much softer, so much shier than it had when Minho had asked. Of course, you were thrown for a loop and it took you a couple seconds to fully process what he had asked. The craziest part was that he had asked right in front of Minho… And Minho didn’t seem to mind it, he actually seemed a little bit too calm. 
“W-Well… I’m… Me and Minho are together…” You stammered, looking between your boyfriend and the man who had asked you the question. Your expectations were probably a little bit too normal for the situation, considering you expected Jisung to apologize and backtrack and you expected Minho to maybe go off a little bit on Jisung for asking something so silly, but none of those things happened, instead, Jisung looked up at Minho as if asking for help. 
That’s when Minho cleared his throat, grabbing his seat across the table from you and holding your gaze with his twinkling eyes that almost seemed a little bit mischievous. “Well you know, Jisung is my friend, my best friend and… He’s been on almost all of our dates with us.” And that was true… It was something that you thought was strange in the beginning, but Jisung had become such a key part of all of your and Minhos dates that it almost felt strange when he wasn’t there. “He really likes you, and I gave him the okay, I wouldn’t mind sharing you with him… But I told him that it was up to you whether you were okay with it.” 
It was up to you? It was a strange decision to make, and it almost felt like a test… You were worried that that was what it was. Minho was testing you to see if you’d really take him up on his offer, and you were nervous, you were scared about what his reaction would be, what he’d do if you took him up on the offer. “We can give you time to think about it… I know that it’s not the easiest choice to make…” Jisung mumbled, his thumbs twirling as he sheepishly looked down at the table. 
“I just… I need to think about it…” You murmured, and you waited, waited for Minho to call you out for even thinking about potentially saying yes… But he didn’t. He patted Jisung on the shoulder, and then he got up from his chair and walked around the table to stand beside you, pressing a kiss to the top of your head. 
“Take all the time you need, kitten. We won’t rush you.” He whispered, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear. It wasn’t a test… They were both serious about this… And you didn’t know how to feel about that. You had never been in a situation like this, you had never been in a relationship like this before… But would it really be any different from how things already were? You just needed to think.. You needed to think about it… 
And think about it you did… You thought about it for quite a while, and, well… It’s quite obvious what you chose. 
Being with both of them was something that took a little bit to get used to… But all in all, it was generally simple at first. It was more like the guys having shared custody of you, which, in itself, was a funny way to look at it, but it also made things easier for you. One week was Minhos week to have you, and the next week was Jisungs. It went back and forth like that for a couple months. 
Sometimes the two of them would want to take you out together, and that’s really when the weird looks would come from bystanders who didn’t understand the relationship. They’d tell you to ignore it, finding something else to capture your attention so you didn’t think too much about what people might be thinking. To them it didn’t matter, as long as you were happy being with the both of them, they were happy. 
You never felt the tension, you never thought there was any. If you even thought for a second that being with the both of them would cause any problems, you wouldn’t have agreed to it, but they both were adamant that things would be okay. It truly felt like things were okay. After your week with either of the guys was over, they would drop you off at the other's house and they always looked so happy. Sometimes they’d even stay for dinner, or have you sit on the middle cushion of the couch as the three of you watched a movie together. Things felt perfect. 
There wasn’t any sign that things were going downhill, to be honest, it didn’t even seem like there was a hill. The falling of the relationship was more like a drop tower, you had been shot up so fast that your heart was still hammering in your chest and that adrenaline from excitement was still coursing through your veins, you didn’t even have a second to think before that loud click and then you were falling, your stomach being lurched up into your throat and when you reached the bottom you didn’t really know what to do, it was like your brain was jumbled and you couldn’t think straight and everything was just… It felt off. 
“Why are you packing up your bags already?” Minho asked as you walked out of the bedroom. Even though Jisung had made a room for you at his own place, your dresser was filled with clothes that he had bought you and you had all the stuff you needed in the bathroom, you had everything you needed in general… You still liked to take a few things from Minhos with you when you went over to Jisungs and vice versa. “You want to leave?” 
For a second you were confused, double checking your calendar to make sure you hadn’t just lost track of the days, but you were right. It was Sunday, and Sundays were when Minho would usually take you over to Jisungs. “It’s Jis day… Remember? Today starts his week.” You reminded your boyfriend who probably had the days mixed up as well considering they were working on a new album. 
He rolled his eyes, letting out a noise that sounded a little bit like disgust as he leaned back on the couch. “I already talked to him. I get to have you for another week. I miss you too much and… I just want to spend a little extra time with you.” He explained, and you nodded your head along with his reasoning. He had been in the office a little bit more this week which meant that he couldn’t spend as much time with you as he probably would have liked to, and considering he told you he had already talking to Jisung about it, you were more than happy to cozy up on the couch next to him and enjoy the rest of the evening. 
“He’s okay with you keeping me for another week though? He said that?” You asked, just to be sure. Jisung was… Well, you wouldn’t say possessive… But he didn’t really like the idea of missing a week with you. He took great pride in the relationship and making sure you felt loved by him. He loved his weeks with you, and on many occasions, he’d get a little choked up whenever he had to give you back to Minho. 
“Of course he’s okay with it. I don’t know why he wouldn’t be.” Minho seemed to brush it off, and you silently thought of a million reasons why Jisung wouldn’t be okay with not seeing you. “You were my girlfriend first. He’s lucky that I even share you with him… I think it’s only fair that I get to spend more time with you anyway.” That was the first sign, although you weren’t exactly sure what that sign entailed, but your gut was telling you that it wouldn’t be good. 
You didn’t push it though, you allowed yourself to lean against Minho as he looked through the movies on tv, trying to find one that you could watch together. It was always so cute to you that he took your opinion into consideration when picking a movie considering the fact that you almost always fell asleep before the halfway mark. That’s exactly what happened, the sun beginning to set, and the golden hue that painted the room mixed with the sound of Minhos light breathing as you laid against his chest, it was the perfect setting to rest, you always found it easier to fall asleep next to him. 
The rapid knocking against the door stirred you enough to have you slightly conscious, lifting your head from Minhos chest that you found yourself laying across fully now, completely on top of him as you both laid on the couch. “Shh… It’s alright, go back to sleep, honey. I’ll get it.” Minho whispered, brushing his fingers over your hair to lull you back into your slumber before shimmying out from underneath you and running to the door. 
Even though you were still out of it, your mind was awake, your ears fully tuned in to what was happening around you. You heard the door being opened, and then the sound of Jisungs voice, just far enough away to know he wasn’t in the house yet, but loud enough for you to know he was irritated. “Why didn’t you drop her off? I was waiting! Do you know how worried I was!? Where is she?” He ranted almost immediately, and you heard Minho shushing him, and it sounded like he was trying to push him out of the house. “No… No, where is she?” Jisung continued, and then Minho sighed heavily, the breath followed by a loud groan. 
“She’s sleeping. She’s not feeling well and I just wanted to keep her here to make sure she’s taken care of.” It was a blatant lie, you had been more than ready to go over to Jisungs this evening, and while you wanted to call Minho out on it, a part of you was scared to. You loved Minho… You loved both of them… And you didn’t want either of them to get hurt. “I’ll just spend the rest of this week with her and then I’ll drop her off at your place. Sorry for worrying you.” 
You thought that it would end there, that Jisung would believe the lie, but you were sorely mistaken. “The rest of this week?! So you’re saying I don’t get to see her for two weeks straight!?” Jisung screeched, and you could tell from the intermittent cracking of his voice that he was already worked up. “I can take care of her just as well as you can. I’ve taken care of her when she has her period, I’ve helped her when she was sick. I love her and I can take care of her too.” And that wasn’t a lie. Jisung was probably the best caregiver you’ve had. He always made sure that you had what you needed, and he’d do his best to take your mind off of whatever was hurting you or making you feel sick. Even when you felt like you were going through hell itself, he managed to make you smile and make you laugh. 
“She’s my girlfriend!” Minho snapped, and you heard his hand slap against the door, something that he did often when he was trying to make his point or when he felt like his words were being threatened. He didn’t like being wrong, and he surely didn’t like when anyone other than him said anything slightly valid. “I had her first, so how about you just accept what I’m saying and you can see her next week.” 
There was a silence… And for the first time, silence scared you. Your eyes peaked open and you pushed yourself up just enough to see over the back of the couch. Jisung was standing right in the center of the doorway, making sure that Minho couldn’t shut the door on him, but not pushing the boundaries. “Oh! I see… I see what’s going on here. You’re jealous…” Jisung stated, and you heard Minho scoff, and you could see his head fall back as if he were silently laughing at the accusation. “You are. You know I treat Y/N better, you know that I love her better… You’re jealous and you’re scared that she’ll end up just choosing me at the end.” 
You weren’t sure when this turned into a competition, that’s never what it felt like to you, but maybe deep down that’s what they both thought it was. “Why would I ever be jealous of you? If I was so scared I wouldn’t have let you start dating her in the first place.” Minho retorted, his words vibrating with his silent laughter. “I felt bad for you because you were always the awkward lonely third wheel. I let you be with her… But you’re really pushing it thinking that you can just come over here and try to take her from me when it’s my week. I make the decisions… She’s my girlfriend, she’ll always be mine first.” 
You hated that… You hated that he felt like he could make the decisions for you, that he should be the one making all the choices. It had been your decision to date the both of them, so it should rightfully be your choice as to who you wanted to spend the week with. Those words had you getting up from the couch and making your way over to the door. “Hey, sweetie!” Jisung cooed, and Minhos head whipped in your direction, his eyes going wide as he looked at you and then back to Jisung. 
“Honey… You’re not feeling well. You should be laying down. Maybe you should go to the bedroom so you won’t be woken up by him.” Minho urged, or… Moreso pleaded with you, motioning to the bedroom door with a forced smile. You couldn’t believe that he was still trying to ride with that lie, and you weren’t going to allow it. As much as you loved Minho, you loved Jisung too, and you didn’t want him to think that you chose to not see him. 
“You know… I’m actually feeling better now.” You said, shooting a smile in Jisungs direction, and you saw his own smile spread across his face as his eyes sparkled brightly with excitement. Minho on the other hand, looked pissed. “I think I should spend the week with Jisung, I haven’t seen him in a whole week… That’s a long time to not see my boyfriend.” 
Jisungs hands clapped giddily, but Minho was growing more and more furious with each passing second. “I’m your boyfriend!” He growled, his arm wrapping around your waist and pulling you back when you tried to move closer to Jisung. “I’m done sharing… You’re breaking up with him. It’s done. I’m over this.” 
It was a shock, especially considering he was the one who wanted this. The only person more shocked than you was Jisung, but his emotions were more of a flurry, he was desperate, he was pissed, he was devastated. “N-No, you can’t choose that! It’s her choice to make, not yours!” Jisung shouted between heavy breaths, it almost looked like he was on the verge of hyperventilating. “Y/N… Sweetie… Tell him…” His eyes widened with panic as he looked at you, and you were panicking too. 
“Yeah… Tell me, honey… Because I’m done sharing you… And if you want to be with him, then you’ll have to just be with him. I’m done doing this weekly bullshit, I’m done having to be away from you. You’re mine… I shouldn’t have let this go on for so long… I shouldn’t have let it start to begin with.” Minho said, biting the inside of his cheeks as his eyes turned ice cold, although you weren’t sure if the look was all for you, or if he was just so pissed off that he couldn’t look at you any other way. 
“That’s not fair…” Jisungs nostrils flared as his own eyes became sharp, his glare directly pointed at Minho. “You waited… You waited long enough for me to get attached to her, for her to get attached to me… You waited for us to love each other and then you try to give her an ultimatum… It’s bullshit and you know it.” While they both seemed to have so much to say to each other, you were speechless. Jisung was right though, it wasn’t fair. Why did he take so long to figure shit out? “Sweetie… Look at me… Y/N…” Jisungs voice softened, and you saw that he wanted to reach out for you, but Minho was like a guard, doing his best to keep Jisung from being able to even breathe too close to you. “I’m not going to hate you for whatever choice you make… But I hope you make the right one. What he’s doing… It’s not right… It’s not okay. I know that whatever choice you do make… It’s going to hurt you. But I’ll still be there for you… No matter what, I’ll always be here for you because I love you. That will never change.” 
It shouldn’t be so hard to choose, Minho was there first… He should be your choice… But Jisung… He was so sweet, he was so loving… He made you feel loved in a completely different way than Minho. It was all so confusing, and you already felt your heart breaking for both of the men that you loved so deeply, you’d lose a piece of yourself no matter who you chose. “I…” You started, tears spilling over your bottom lashes as you looked between both of the guys that held your heart. “I don’t know… I… I need time to think…” It wasn’t easy, it would never be easy… And you knew that it would only be made harder since they both were always together, they were in the same group, whether you chose Minho or Jisung, you’d always have to see the both of them… You’d always be faced with the thought of what could have been if your choice had been different. You’d need a lot of time to think… And you’d need a couple weeks, weeks to yourself to think about who you’d choose… If any of them… Because you didn’t just have to protect your own feelings and your own heart… You had to protect theirs too.

Sugar Mommies Season 2, Pt:5
Welcome cuties to the fifth instalment of Sugar Mommies. I hope it was worth the wait! <3 I - just like Carol - am frantically trying to find a way to bring Natasha and Wanda home. Please bare with and if the certain nonnie who is pestering me about it, could kindly stop, that would be ace.
Enjoy lovies!
Xoxo
Livvy
Polite Reminder That All My Work - Especially For Sugar Mommies - Is 18+! Minors Do Not Interact
Tumblr media
You can’t stop yourself from checking your cell after roughly one minute and twenty five seconds.
Taking it back from your pocket between two fingers as if it was covered in something disgusting. 
You swipe away the unwanted messages as you excitedly look at the current unread message from your Wanda.
Your safe space. 
One of your safe people. 
Your woman in shining armour. 
Wands (17:43): Natty and Carol are talking about work, boring or what? :(
The smile forming on your face looks goofy but you do not care. 
At all.
Y/N (17:43): I knowww! 
You glance over at Carol, where she’s still talking on the phone to Natasha; power radiating off her. 
Y/N (17:43): They took over before I could get a chance to talk to you, Wands :( 
You watch the three dots dance as Wanda types her reply. 
Wands (17:44): I know, how mean of them! I’d call you now but I need to be on standby in case I’m needed for boring work related duties. I miss you kitten <3 
Y/N (17:44): That sucks. At least we’re talking now, kinda. I miss you more :(
Wands (17:45): You better not be sad, my love! I can’t cheer you up from here!
Wands (17:45): Oh wait, yes I can! Watch this!💕
It takes Wanda a full minute - and yes, you timed her - to send a cute gif of two cats cuddling. 
Wands (17:46): Tada! How cute is that?? 🥺
Y/N (17:46): Did you just learn how to do that…? I’m shocked you even know what a gif is!😂
Wands (17:46): No…what? I’m not that old, kitten!
You bite your bottom lip in an attempt to stifle your laugh.
Y/N (17:47): Sure you’re not…grandma.
Wands (17:47): Excuse me? Grandma? Have you forgotten your place since we’ve been away, kitten? 
Y/N (17:48): Nope. I just felt like trying a new nickname, not a fan?
Wands (17:49): Would a grandma be able to do this?
Two minutes later and Wanda eventually sends her chosen gif over to you and you can’t help but bark out in laughter; hastily covering your mouth.
It’s a gif of hand wrapping around someone’s neck. 
Wands (17:50): Something I am itching to do to you. 
Wands (17:50): Or this.
Another gif comes through and this time it’s of an ass being smacked. 
When the next one shows up on your phone, you purse your lips and stare straight ahead; refusing to let yourself blush too much. 
It’s a gif of a woman being collared. 
Wands (17:52): I can keep them coming, Y/N. Trust me.
You cast a sidelong glance at an old lady next to you; just in case she happens to be peering over your shoulder.
But she isn’t even bothered by you. 
No, she’s far too engrossed in her novel.
“50 Shades -” You snort and cover your face with your hands.
You could not make this stuff up. 
Another gif comes through and you end up calling Wanda without fully thinking. 
She picks up on the second ring. 
“What a pleasant surprise.” She says. “Even if I did tell you I can’t call, baby girl. Are we struggling to understand basic information?” 
“I - I, I don’t know why I called…” You stammer. 
“Don’t go shy on me now, kitten. Tell mommy why you called her. Go on.” Wanda replies, “quickly now.”
“Erm,” You clear your throat. “I called you to ask you to stop sending the gifs…”
“And why is that, baby?” Wanda asks, highly amused. “Are you getting all flustered?” 
“So what if I am?”
“You’re getting defensive too.” Wanda replies. “Aw sweet little baby; is mommy making you all flustered?”
“I - no. Shut up.”
“Did you just tell me to shut up?”
Wanda’s tone changes and you immediately know your mistake. 
It’s like you can pinpoint exactly when all the blood drains from your face.
“I -” 
“ - because I know for a fact, good girls don’t tell their doms to shut up.”
“But - ”
“And you’re my good girl, aren’t you, kitten?” 
You’re silent for a good ten seconds. 
Words and your brain are just utterly failing you.
Wanda loves it. 
She waits patiently for you to catch up. 
“I - w…well. Yeah.” You manage to squeak out. 
“I’ve not had the chance to play Dom since leaving you, kitten.” Wanda sighs. “Now I’ve got you one on one, I can. I’ve missed it. Almost as much as I’ve missed you, little one.” 
You nervously glance at Carol, who just happens to glance at you at the same time. She offers you a wink. 
You mentally curse your cheeks for blushing crimson. 
Carol will for sure know something is up. 
“Where did you go, my gorgeous girl? Come back to mommy.”
“I’m here.” You mutter, “I’m here.” 
“Are you okay?” Wanda asks. 
“Yes…”
“Hi, baby.” Carol smiles, appearing out of thin air. 
She places your drinks on the table.
“Oooh,” You hear Wanda say on the phone. “That’s why you’re distracted. Captain is with you again, isn’t she?” 
“Maybe.” You reply, thanking Carol when she slides your drink over to you.
“Is that Wanda?” She asks. 
You nod, blowing on your coffee.
Carol takes your phone from you and holds it to her ear.
“Shouldn’t you be working, kitten?” 
“...hi Carol…” 
“Hi, bunny.” Carol replies, “shouldn’t you be working?” 
“I am working…” 
“No, little liar. You’re talking to our baby girl.” 
Wanda sighs. 
“Go and do some work, cheeky thing.” Carol says. “We will talk to you later, okay?” 
“But I miss Y/N.”
“Don’t you miss me?” 
“Not as much as I miss my detka.” 
“Go and do some work, brat. We will speak to you later”
Carol ends the call and wordlessly hands you back your phone, rolling her eyes for good measure. 
“Brats.” She smirks. “Constant pests in my life.” 
You smile back, nudging her with your foot. 
“Yes, Y/N? Something to add?” Carol asks. Her eyes are bright, playful.
“...just that I’m glad I’m not one.” 
“Oh?” Carol sniggers, cocking her head to the side. “Is that so, kitten?”
“Mhmm,” You reply, biting into your chosen treat. Its filling oozes out of the pastry and spills onto your fingers. 
The crumbly exterior tumbles onto the chipped white plate.
You expect Carol’s attention to switch to that. 
To watch the chocolatey goo dribble down your fingers. 
But she doesn’t.
No. 
Her eyes are trained fully on you. 
Completely invested in what you have to say.
You chew and swallow. “I’m an angel. What can I say?”
Carol laughs.
A solid, belly laugh. 
“Oh honey,” she says, moving from her chair to sit next to you. “You might not be in the same league as Wanda when it comes to being a little brat; but you can’t deny that its there. I see the sparkle in your eye, small one.”
You watch her, mouth agape; and God, you want nothing more than to reply back with a witty remark. 
“And baby girl, it’s there. I see it right now.”
One hand goes to rest on your knee, while her other arm drapes around your shoulders. 
“Do it,” Carol baits, “go on. Be a brat. I dare you.”
Yup. That was a mistake.
The word dare triggers something in your brain. 
And who are you to ever step down from a dare?
Your chocolate covered hand moves to Carol’s face, quicker than you thought you could move it, but she catches your wrist without so much as a blink. 
The tip of your finger is mere inches from her cheek.
You could still do it. 
Wiggle your hand out of her stupidly strong grasp…
“Only, if you do decide to be a brat, Y/N, just know, you won’t be cumming for an entire week. Do I make myself clear?”
It’s like she burnt you. 
Your hand jerks free from her grasp and you hastily move it away.
“That's what I thought.” 
“That’s…” 
“That’s what, honey?” Carol asks you, handing you a moist hand wipe from her purse. 
You take it gladly and wipe your sticky hands clean. 
“Nothing…” You reply, scrubbing at a stubborn patch on your index finger. “Forget I said anything.” 
“Clever girl.” Carol says, grabbing her drink and taking a much needed sip. 
She glances at you as you pick up your own drink. “Otherwise I’d have had to teach you a lesson right here in this cafe.” 
Carol can’t help but chuckle at your response; the small jerk as you register her words. Your startled “Oh!” as some of the liquid sloshes over one side of your cup and onto your lap. 
“Careful there, baby.” 
Carol takes a spare napkin from the table and presses it down onto the wet patch on your thigh. 
“T-thanks…” 
“Spill anymore and it’ll look like you’ve wet yourself…or let me have my way with you.” 
Your eyes snap up to hers in time to catch the wink.
“Don’t worry, baby.” Carol says, removing her hand from your thigh. 
It mercifully lets your brain restart and you let out a slightly shaky breath. 
“Tease.” 
“Oh? And here’s me thinking you liked my teasing…” Her lips press onto your cheek. “But I’ll stop. I think the barista can see your blushing cheeks from all the way at the till.” 
You nudge Carol with your shoulder, glaring up at her. 
“Have you finished?” 
“For now.” She says. “Come on, eat your snack baby. And drink up before it gets cold.” 
You both sit in silence for a few minutes after that. 
You, nibbling away while Carol sits with one arm behind you; fingers twirling your hair. 
She looks content. Happy. Relaxed.
But on the inside, her brain is working through a hundred different problems.
Trying to remember dates and employees names; and whether she emailed specific people back. 
But for you, she’s keeping her composure. 
Determined to keep it together, just for you. 
“When we get home, love, I might have to disappear for a little bit. Do some work to try to help ease Natasha and Wanda’s load. Is that okay?” 
“Of course.” You reply. “Is there anything I can do to help? I’m a fast typer. Or I can make phone calls for you?” 
At that, Carol smiles, pulling you somehow closer to her side. 
“My lovely, sweet girl. Thank you. But I’ll be okay. I need to concentrate. If you’re there trying to help, I’d just get distracted…” 
You try to fight back a smile. 
“I could make us dinner then?” 
“Much better, my little chef. I might have the perfect outfit for you to wear too, whilst you cook.” 
“Is that so?” You shift in your seat so you’re facing Carol. 
“Mhm,” she replies. “I wouldn’t want you to get your clothes dirty whilst you create a mess in the kitchen.”
“I can’t wait to see this outfit then…” 
You’re leaning forward, hands cupping both of Carol’s cheeks, when you hear MJ’s voice. 
“Y/N!” 
The two of you groan and pull apart, just in time to watch as MJ shimmies through a small gap between two chairs. 
“Y/N! Why don’t you answer your phone anymore?” 
“Sorta got into the habit of ignoring you when I’m occupied…” You mumble. “Why is it always you?”
“Don’t you have other friends to pester, MJ?” Carol mutters, earning an elbow jab to her ribs.
“Y/N, please, you’ve gotta come; it’s an emergency!” 
You sit up straighter in your seat. 
“What?” 
Every disastrous scenario you can think of flickers through your head. 
“What’s happened? 
“Just come on, Y/N. Please!” 
“But I don’t -”
“Now! I don’t have time to explain.” MJ inspects your barely touched drink. “I’ll buy you another one later. And two cookies if you just get up and move. I’m ageing here, babe; come on.”
“Probably because you’re being elusive as fuck right now, MJ.” Carol mutters, checking her nails. 
“I don’t have time for your snark, Danvers; come on Y/N! Please!”
“Right, right, okay, let me grab my stuff.”
MJ yanks you up. 
Nearly tearing your arm out of your socket as she does so.
How she doesn’t knock the table over as you’re dragged to your feet is beyond you.
“It’s an emergency, quick, come on!”
“It’ll be more of a fucking emergency if you dislocate my shoulder, MJ!” 
Carol sighs and stands up; only to be glared at by MJ. 
“Not you! Best friends only.”
You can only cast a I’m sorry glance back at Carol before you’re towed away. 
“Call me when you’re done, hon!” Carol shouts after you, smiling as you try your hardest to not fall over your own two feet. 
Once outside, MJ doesn’t stop towing you.
She doesn’t even check if you’re behind her. She just marches on, switching to a run, assuming the hand she has a grip on is still attached to your body. 
When you eventually do go down, MJ finally decides her rapid pace is a little excessive and allows you to walk by her side; even if it is still a rather quick walk. 
“Gonna tell me - ah cramp, cramp!” You fall into MJ’s side, clutching your side. “Fuck, I’m so unfit, ow!” 
“How are you like this when you have three women who fuck you, Y/N?”
“I -” You slap her arm, “MJ!” 
“What? It’s true!” 
“Slow down, please, I’m gonna pass out.” 
“You have got to work on your stamina, love.” 
“Where are we going, MJ?”
“Round the corner, Peter should still be there.” 
“What the fuck are you talking a…bout…” 
You stand there, dumbfounded, at the sight of Peter holding a small golden retriever in his arms. 
“Hi, Y/N!” 
“That’s a dog…”
“It’s actually a puppy…” Peter replies, taking a small step towards MJ when you glare at him.
“Thank you, Captain Obvious. I can see that. Why are you holding a puppy? What’s going on?” 
“We found him on our way to get a coffee. I’m in love, Y/N. I’m keeping him. Meet Spider-pup!”

Leaving For Good
pair: Edward Nashton (Dano) x fem!reader
summary: You're sick of Edward prioritizing the Riddler over you...
warnings: SMUT (18++ MINORS DNI); non/dubcon elements; sex in an elevator; unprotected p in v (wrap it before you tap it); darkish!reader; forced creampie/breeding
Tumblr media
There he was. Sitting slouched at his computer just as he did night after night, researching politicians or whatever he occupied his time with. Between his 9-5 at the accounting firm and his Riddler business, you were a lot less than an afterthought in his routine. Edward hadn’t touched you in weeks.
Your lack of a sex life wasn’t even the biggest problem, not really. He just stopped interacting with you altogether despite the fact that you shared an apartment and slept in the same bed each night. Well, when he didn’t fall asleep in front of his computer.
He didn’t notice when you slowly started to pack your things or the phone calls you made to landlords with available apartments for you to move into. 
You watched him from in front of the front door, suitcases sitting around you. “Eddie, I’m leaving.” He barely nodded to acknowledge your words. You cleared your throat. “Did you hear me? I’m leaving.”
He took a deep breath and leaned back in his chair, finally turning to look at you. His annoyed look turned into confusion. “Where are you going?” He fixes his posture. 
“I found a new apartment and…we’re done.” You tried to hold yourself up, not allowing the words leaving your mouth to have an effect on you. 
It took a second for him to process. He jumped up from his chair and made his way to you. “Woah, woah, woah. Where did this come from?”
You shuttered as his hand rested on your bicep. Getting laid would be the first thing you did once you left. You knew that you desperately needed it. “Now you care? When was the last time we went on a date? I feel like we’re just roommates.”
“I have a lot of more important things to worry about than your feelings.” He pinched the bridge of his nose.
You purse your lips and nodded. “Bye, Edward.” You turned to the door and opened it, pulling your suitcases with you down the hallway.
Edward chased after you, calling your name and apologizing. You did your best to ignore him and keep a steady pace toward the elevator. The doors opened and you both stepped in, him still pleading for you to talk to him.
A few floors down, he slammed his hand against the emergency stop button. “You’re not leaving. I love you and I fucked up, okay? I can’t lose you, you’re the best thing that’s ever happened to me, darling.” He cupped your cheek. Tears fell from his eyes, something you rarely saw happen.
You shook your head. “I’m not falling for your empty promises anymore.”
“Please, let me show you how much you mean to me.” He leaned into you and kissed your cheek, then trailed down to your neck and collarbone.
You wanted to push him off and tell him how much he hurt you after all these years you’ve been together, but you couldn’t deny the way he made you feel when he kissed you. Against your better judgment, you wrapped your arms around his neck and pulled him in closer. 
You could feel him smile against your skin. “Maintenance won’t be here for a while to get us out.” This building was infamous for the lazy landlords and incompetent service workers. It would be about twenty minutes for someone to arrive to help you.
One of your hands reached in front of his shirt to start unbuttoning it. He pulled your top off, his breath hitched at the sight of your breasts after all this time. For such a genius, he was really stupid for letting someone like you feel unloved.
He reached his hand under the waistband of your panties and rubbed circles on your clit. Of course, he still knew exactly how to make you melt. “Please, Edward. I need you.”
“I know, darling. You’ll have me.” His free hand went straight to his pants to free himself as fast as he possibly could. You felt a rush of cool air when you pulled your pants down, exposing yourself entirely to him. “You’re so gorgeous. I love you so much.”
He lined himself up and pushed in until he bottomed out inside of you. He whimpered at the sensation, kissing your shoulder. You missed the feeling of being so full of him. “Thank you. You feel so wonderful. My beautiful princess. Only an idiot would let you go.”
His pace was agonizingly slow, taking in the sensation of being inside of you once again. “Harder, please, Edward. Like we used to.”
Sex with Edward was intense. You loved it most when he would pound you into the mattress and tell you riddles that he knew you didn’t know the answer to and only let you come when you answered it right. He was so calm and quiet in his daily life, it was only natural that he let out his frustrations in the bedroom. You couldn’t be happier about it. 
He maneuvered you to the ground until you laid on the discarded articles of clothing. You wouldn’t even mind if you were on the disgusting elevator floor. As long as he was inside of you.
“Is this better than your livestreams?” He quickened his pace, thrusting into you like his life depended on it.
He nodded, almost out of breath. “So much better.”
“How do I know you’re telling the truth?” 
He leaned into you and kissed you deeply. “I’d do anything for you, baby. I’m about to cum. Where do you want it?”
You bit your lip, pretending to think for a moment. “Inside.”
He laughed and shook his head. “I’m not wearing a condom and we both know you’re not on birth control. Be serious.”
“You said anything, Eddie. I want you to cum inside me. Get me pregnant, yeah?” He slowed his pace and gave you a confused look.
“No. We can’t have-” You cut him off by kissing him, locking your legs around his waist and pulling him in closer. He sat on the floor and you made sure to keep him inside you while you switched positions. 
He held your hips, trying to pull you off of him as you rode him. His pleads for you to get off became staggered, turning into soft whimpers and moans. His grip on you tightened. “You know you can’t survive on your own. You’ll have to support your family.”
He couldn’t answer you. You knew exactly why when you felt his cock twitch and the feeling of warm liquid spewing inside of you, coating your walls. You still rode him through his orgasm, making sure that you got every drop that his body wanted to give you. 
You kissed him deeply and took his hand, resting it on your stomach. “You still love me, right?”
He couldn’t speak much, only giving you an exhausted nod.

Apologies
summary: After an encounter with your old best friend, she gave you her number to catch up. When you decide to send her a message, someone else replies. Was it destiny?
warnings: angsty, fluff, not much tbh
author’s note: I’m so thankful for all the support!! I love you all so much and would love to interact with you! Big thank you to @manrocket-mo 💓💓 She helped me A LOT and it’s because of her that I even got the motivation to write this. She basically helped me with the whole plot sooooo thank her!
Part 5
Apologies masterlist
Tumblr media
Everyone was rushing around and making last preparations for the upcoming show.
He could hear the crowd roaring in anticipation and singing along the songs that were being played. Sometimes, Harry would be nervous to go on stage and hearing the crowd would even worsen it. Other times, it would calm him and make him happy to know that the people were waiting for him to go on stage.
Nevertheless, Harry was always overwhelmed with emotions before going on stage.
This time though, Harry felt numb.
His was sitting on the floor in a quiet corner. His legs were pulled to his chest and he leaned his head against the wall while he waited.
He didn’t wait to go on stage, though. No, Harry waited for his phone to ring.
He turned the notifications off for anyone but you, desperately hoping for anything.
A message, a call, even a text stating that you were okay would be enough for him.
Harry let out a frustrated sigh as he took his phone and looked at his messages for the millionth time that day.
Harry: Hi. I don’t know what’s going on, but I just want you to know that whatever happened, I’m here for you.
Harry: And I miss talking to you.
Harry: God, you already mean so much to me.
“I shouldn’t be telling her that.”, Harry mumbled to himself. “Not now, at least.”, he decided before deleting the last message.
Harry: I hope you’re okay. Please reach out if you see this x
Harry turned his head when he heard footsteps approaching him.
Sarah.
“You look miserable.”, she pointed out and sat down next to Harry. “Thank you.”, Harry rolled his eyes and Sarah let out a small chuckle.
“No, seriously. I’ve never seen you so desperate when it comes to a girl.”
Harry scoffed. “I just need to know what happened.”
Sarah nodded her head. “I get it, I really do. But it’s only been a day. Give it some time. Give her some time to process whatever happened. Go on that stage and hold your speech and make a thousand people happy, Harry. Like you always do.”
Harry looked into her eyes and flashed her a genuine smile. A smile that faded only seconds later. “I just wish I could make her happy, too.”, he whispered quietly.
-
Harry took a deep and long breath before he stepped on the stage and the crowd erupted into chaos.
He couldn’t help it, he couldn’t stop his smile when he saw his fans all dressed up, all looking at him with such admiration and adoration.
He blew some of his fans kisses and waved at others. “Hello Munich!”, he greeted everyone and suddenly, the crowd went quiet.
“First of all, I want to thank you for coming! I hope you’ll have the time of your lives today-“, he began, his voice cracking at the end of the sentence. “I don’t deserve this, I don’t deserve you.”, he continued, closing his eyes for just a second and taking it all in.
He would never grow tired of this.
“There was something happening at yesterday’s concert. Some fans treated another-“, he let out a deep breath. “Another fan of mine very badly. I don’t know what exactly happened, but I know things like this happen quite often.”, he continued.
“I don’t want things like that to ever happen at one of my concerts again. Here, we treat people with kindness. We respect each other, we love each other. This should be your safe place, a place to connect with other fans and make new acquaintances. If you treat another fan badly, for whatever reasons, you’re not welcomed at my concerts. If you do so, you didn’t understand what my team and I stand for and, thus, you’re not truly a fan of mine.”
Harry stopped for a second, letting the crowd take his words in as he thought about his next ones. “If you’re the fan that was treated badly, and you know exactly who you are, reach out to my team. I’d love to give you tickets for another concert of mine. No one deserves to be treated like that.”
The crowd cheered and Harry let out a breathy laugh. “This being said, enjoy the concert and treat people with kindness! The next song is for someone who means a lot to me and doesn’t even know about it.”, he bowed as the first tunes of Cherry started to play.
Don’t you call him baby.
We’re not talking lately.
-
A week.
It’s been a whole week since Harry has heard from you and he was losing his mind.
Your phone was turned off and his messages didn’t even come through. Your phone had been turned off for a whole week.
In the past few months, he had grown so used to you that he had forgotten to appreciate you more. Now that you weren’t answering any of his messages anymore, Harry felt lonely.
He had no one to talk to when he felt particularly down, exhausted, agitated, furious or happy anymore.
There had been so many moments in the last days he wanted to tell you about.
For instance, on Saturday, when Harry went shopping he saw a Cherry pillow. He sent you a picture of it but never got an answer. On Monday Harry snapped a picture of the sunset, because he remembered that you told him how much you loved them. Harry even sent you the speech he held in Munich.
Harry: 🎥
Harry: Was this at your show? What happened?
Harry stared at his phone before he decided to click on Twitter. Everyone was talking about his interaction with you. They were all trying to find you. His fans were speculating whether you two knew each other. They were also talking about his speech, trying to find out who Harry dedicated Cherry to.
If only they knew.
Harry scrolled through the Tweets simply because he wanted, no needed, to see your beautiful face, to hear your sweet voice over and over again. There were at least a thousand screenshots and screen recordings in his gallery just of you.
But he felt guilty. People were attacking you and criticizing your song choice, your outfit or even your appearance.
It was then that Harry truly understood that his fans were simply jealous for you were the most beautiful woman he had ever laid eyes on. Anyone who couldn’t see that was just blinded by jealousy.
Oh, how he hoped you didn’t see what his “fans” wrote about you. He hoped you’d stay away from social media.
He hoped he could delete every single video of you, every single Tweet about you.
You didn’t deserve that.
God, he hoped, with every fiber of his being, that you were okay. Harry was truly going out of his mind. Endless scenarios of what might have happened entered it every few seconds and he simply couldn’t take it anymore.
What if something happened to you?
Harry shook his head, trying to get rid off his thoughts. Sarah was right. You just needed time. Time to process whatever happened at the concert, time to calm down.
But he wished that you’d talk to him, to H. You always did. He’d trust you with your whole life, so why didn’t you seem to trust him?
-
You closed your eyes, trying to control your heavy breathing.
You listened to the sounds you heard. The heavy footsteps, the loud chattering, the loudspeaker announcements.
It didn’t help. Nothing helped.
As you opened your eyes again, you watched people running around, pushing through the crowd and trying not to miss their flights.
You were overwhelmed by emotions and it felt like you couldn’t breathe. The airport air was just so heavy.
You tried to calm down and tried not to panic. This was your choice, a new opportunity, a new life, a new beginning.
In truth, you were running away. Running away from your family, from Jack and Jules, from the people in your town.
But still, this could be a new beginning. You had been offered a scholarship to King’s College London a while ago. You had originally decided not to accept the offer because you were afraid. Afraid of meeting new people, of having no one and living alone.
Now, though, you realized that you didn’t have much to lose anyway.
You sighed, pulling out your phone and turning it on after a whole week. As much as you didn’t want to admit it, you needed someone to talk to. You needed H.
You felt bad for not contacting him. H had always been there for you, whatever happened. But the past week was just so rough. You didn’t want to burden him with your problems.
It caught you off guard, the several messages and even calls from H. You didn’t realize you meant that much to him. But it seemed like he really cared for you.
Someone really cared for you.
When you saw the video H had sent you, your heart squeezed in your chest. It was a video of Harry Styles.
After what had happened at the concert you couldn’t listen to his music anymore, couldn’t even look at the videos you took at the concert. Every time you did, you were reminded of what happened at the concert.
Nevertheless, you clicked on the video and it seemed like your heart broke right in your chest. Harry Styles was talking about you. He was talking about what had happened at the concert. He was offering you tickets to one of his concerts.
Which was one of the many reasons he was your favorite singer. He was so selfless, he always cared for his fans. He-
Jules’ words rang in your ear.
No one will ever like you. Harry talked to you because you stood out in the crowd. He pitied you because of how you look.
You knew her words held no truth and yet, every time you thought of what had happened, you just felt so humiliated.
Were you really so unlovable and unwanted?
Before the concert you would have never declined that offer. You would have reached out to Harry’s team. But now you couldn’t. You wouldn’t.
You: I’m sorry. I’m fine, H.
It wasn’t even five seconds later when H answered you.
H: Cherry.
H: Oh god, I’m so relieved. Are you sure you’re okay? Do you need anything?
You: I’m so sorry, I should have answered your messages
H: It’s okay, Cherry. I just need to know what happened.
You: Jack stood me up at the concert
H: Who would ever stand you up? He’s an idiot, Cherry
H: Did something happen?
You: I met him at the concert
You: He was with Jules, my old best friend that I told you about
You: Turns out they’re dating and have dated for a long time. They just wanted to humiliate me. Jules said some very mean things and I just needed time to process everything
H: Oh, Cherry.
H: They don’t deserve you
H: Jack doesn’t deserve you, no one does.
H: Do you want to talk about what she said?
You: I promise that I trust you, H
You: But I don’t really want to talk about it
You: It just feels like no one truly cares about me
H: That’s bullshit
H: I care about you
You: But I don’t even know if you truly exist
You: Or who you are
You: I don’t even know what you look like
H: Trust me when I say that you’re the person who knows me best
H: You know the most vulnerable version of me
H: I trust you with every fiber of my being. I want us to be honest with each other
H: And if anything like this ever happens again, which I hope it will not, please talk to me and don’t shut me out
H: You can trust me
You: I promise I do
You: Talking about honesty, I have to tell you another thing
H: Yes?
You: This sounds ridiculous. This is ridiculous
You: Remember that scholarship I told you about? You told me to accept it
You: And I did. I’m moving to London
You: Today
H: What?
H: That’s not ridiculous
H: I’m so happy for you
H: God, I can’t stop smiling. This is a new beginning for you
H: When will you land? And at which airport?
You: Around 2pm at Heathrow.
H: Where will you sleep?
You: I was thinking about an Airbnb
You: I don’t have an apartment yet
H: Be careful
H: You’ll find something
H: I can’t believe you’re moving to London
H: How are you feeling?
You: Anxious. I don’t know if I made the right decision
H: I’m sure you did
H: I hope London will make you feel better
You: I hope so too
You: I have to go, H. I’ll write you when I’m in London
-
Harry couldn’t stop staring at his phone. He couldn’t wipe the smile off his face.
He wished he was in London right now. He wished he could see you. He needed to.
When his tour would be over, though, you’d be living in the same city. There would always be the possibility of seeing each other.
Which was ridiculous, London was a very big city. But Harry was always delusional when it came to you.
He knew it was wrong, he knew that he shouldn‘t be doing it, but he needed to make sure you were fine and safe in London.
So, Harry took out his phone and called Lucy, a close friend of his who lived in London.
The phone rang a few times before she picked up. Harry could hear some chattering and noises in the background and figured that Lucy was taking a walk through the city.
“Hi.”, he greeted her. “How are you?”
“What do you want?”, Lucy let out a breathy laugh. “You always want something when you call me”, she emphasized.
Harry chuckled. “You know me so well, Lucy. I need to ask you for a favor.”
Lucy hummed. “Is it about the girl you told me about? Otherwise, I’m not helping you.”
Harry only rolled his eyes. “Lucky for me, it’s about her.”, he paused for a second, not quite sure how to ask her. “This might sound crazy, which it probably is, but she’s moving to London. She’s arriving at Heathrow at around 2pm. I don’t know if you’re free today-“
“You want me to befriend her”, Lucy interrupted Harry. Harry breathed in deeply. “I know it sounds crazy, but she doesn’t really have any friends. I just- I don’t want her to feel alone in London. It’s a new beginning. I just want to make sure she’s fine.”
Lucy stayed quiet for a few seconds, before she sighed. “Okay.”, she gave in. “Where will she be and how does she look like?”
Harry couldn’t stop the grin on his face even if he tried. “You’ll find her at Starbucks. I’ll send you a picture. Thank you, Lucy.”
“I only do this because I know how much you care about her.”
-
You: I landed!
You: I’m at Starbucks right now
H: What a surprise
H: How was the flight?
You: It was okay, how was your day?
H: Better now that I know you landed safely
You: You’re disgusting
H: But you still like me
“Excuse me.”, a voice called out and your head shot up instantly. You came into view with a girl around your age.
She looked very sweet. She was smiling at you, her blonde hair falling into her face. What stood out the most, though, were her bright blue eyes.
She was everything you wished you’d be.
“You lost your money.”, she explained, giving you the ten pounds you must have accidentally dropped. “Oh, thank you very much, that’s very kind of you.”
“No problem.”, she flashed you a toothy smile and her eyes wandered to your tote bag. “Are you a Harry Styles fan?”, she questioned you.
“I was- I am.”, you stuttered. “I love his music, too!”, she giggled excitedly.
“I’m Lucy.”, she introduced herself, motioning to the seat across from yours. “Go ahead.”, you nodded before introducing yourself, too.
“You’re not from here, are you?”, she asked you. “No, I just moved here.”, you explained. “Still figuring out things. What about you?”
“I’ve been living here my whole life. I was just waiting for a friend, but her flight got canceled.”, she explained. “But if you ever need help, I can show you around.”
You looked at her quizzically, intrigued by her kindness, but still accepted her offer. “That would be very nice! Thank you!”
“I’m glad to help.”

Impending, part 3
Tumblr media
Matsukawa Issei x afab reader
Word count: ~3.4k
Tags & warnings: SMUT-MINORS & AGELESS BLOGS DO NOT INTERACT. Fingering, oral sex (f receiving), p in v. There is cum. Pubes exist in this world. A little angst, pining, guilt, and desperation (my four favorite flavors).
Note: Finally finished this mini-series. The word counts have grown too much each time, but what can I say? — I want him emotionally, spiritually, biblically.
part 1 | part 2
Tumblr media
You can’t stay in bed forever.
Probably.
Not unless you can convince Hiro to bring you something for dinner, but that’s never going to happen.
A particularly angry gurgle from your stomach makes you roll out of bed and pick your way to the kitchen. The tackiness of your skin is proof you made the right choice to sleep the day away. Summers are always stifling, and the humidity lingers even after the sun has set, preventing the air from dropping to comfortable temperatures.
A cool gust from the fridge provides a welcome relief, though it’s unfortunate the shelves are empty. That’s the worst part of being at home — the isolation. The trees and hills are beautiful, even the warbling of the birds at 4am is nice, but grocery stores and restaurants are few and far between. You could walk to the ancient ramen place a few streets down, or the sukiyaki place a few streets up, but neither sound at all appealing in this heat.
“Did mom and dad leave us anything for dinner?” You shout toward the open basement door.
No answer.
“I know you can hear me.”
You can’t see the middle finger Makki holds up. “I’m getting pizza later.”
“Can we order now? I’m starving,” you pad downstairs with a whine.
Sprawled on the couch, Hiro is sporadically illuminated by some anime show on tv. While you don’t recognize it, you can at least pick out the white-haired guy Hiro likes landing a couple of (over)dramatic punches on a black-haired guy.
“How are you even hungry? You’ve just been sleeping all day.”
Your brother doesn’t take his eyes off the tv where the black-haired one finally managed to dodge, and now the white-haired one is strategizing (at length) about his next move.
“You’re one to talk! As if you’ve mov-”
“I’m hungry too,” a deep baritone chimes in seemingly from below you.
You leap back with a yelp, squinting into the darkness at your feet. Out of the shadows, Issei’s form slowly takes shape. Honestly, you’re shocked you didn’t step on him.
“That’s not what you said 5 minutes ago,” Makki grumbles, but picks up his phone to place the order.
Issei shrugs, reaching his arm out toward you.
You dodge beyond his fingertips and beat a hasty retreat back up the stairs, calling out over your shoulder, “order me a Hawaiian pizza.”
“No way in hell. That’s disgusting.”
Fake retching sounds follow you to the top.
The cold spray of the shower is calming, necessary even, to wash the stickiness from your skin and quiet your frazzled nerves.
That happened almost a week ago, and seeing him in your house every day has only made things more fraught. While you haven’t exactly been avoiding Issei, you haven’t tried to talk to him either. For your brother’s sake you should probably make clear that it was a mistake; one that will never happen again. You could blame it on the beer or the weed, but the truth is, Issei plagues your thoughts even while sober — his breath hot on your neck, fingertips digging into the fat of your hips, the utter fullness when he pushed into you.
Before that night, the image of him as a gawky preteen was all your mind could conjure up. But now… Your fingers aren’t enough to relieve the pressure anymore.
Your encounter unleashed some latent magnetic field, prickling your senses and hopelessly drawing you toward him at every turn. You welcome his attention more than you care to admit, so, unsurprisingly, it’s been hard not to make it weird, and harder not to second-guess every single interaction these days. Since when did he know your favorite snacks? Did he used to stare at you so much? Had he always been this touchy?
Or is he just hoping for a repeat of the other night?
The possibility stirs up both anxiety and relief. Except for the teeny, tiny detail of being your little brother’s best friend — you know, the one person outside of family that Hiro places 100% of his trust in — Issei would top your list of fuck buddies (and if you’re honest, maybe even more than that).
What’s been most confusing is that Issei doesn’t seem bothered, and you’re not sure why that irritates you so much. He’s never seemed like the kind of guy who would treat you like a notch in his bedpost, but then again, best friend’s sibling is a perennially popular porn trope for a reason. Surely he’s not immune.
None of that really matters though. Hiro’s been acting strange lately, like he knows something’s up. Half the time, he books it out of a room as soon as you walk in. God knows how he’d react if he found out what happened. Issei said he wouldn’t care, but how true is that? You try to imagine how you’d feel if one of your friends told you they’d slept with Hiro, and you can’t help but be…one, grossed out because you really don’t want to think about it. And two, well…protective, angry maybe. He might be an ass, but he’s still your brother, and you’d never do anything to actually hurt him.
A knock breaks into your anxious musings.
It’s then you notice you’re standing vacantly in the middle of your room. Somehow, you’d finished showering and walked back while lost in thought.
“Go away!”
Hiro is the last person you want to talk to right now; especially not before you can get your thoughts under control.
Footsteps shuffle away, but instead of the telltale creak of the stairs, they pause, then turn back toward the door.
The door jiggles and clicks open.
“What part of-”
Except it’s not Hiro. It’s Issei.
His audacity dumbfounds you, but only for a second.
“The hell?! Get out!”
Hesitation flickers across his face but he takes a step forward.
“Can we talk?”
“NO.” You wrap the towel tighter around yourself.
When he doesn’t move, you reiterate the point by whirling on your heels and stomping toward the dresser. The underwear drawer suddenly captures your full attention, and you rummage through it with single-minded focus.
The door shuts behind you with another click, and you let out a shaky breath.
The relief is short-lived.
“You’ve been avoiding me.” Goosebumps break out all over your skin at his words.
“That’s not true.”
The lavender scent of your shampoo tickles his nose. With you faced resolutely away, he steps closer and allows his eyes to sweep over the droplets gleaming across your shoulders.
“No?”
His lips brush against the base of your neck, and whatever retort you had fizzles on your tongue.
“Issei,” you whimper, “you said you wanted to talk.”
You lean back into his touch and feel him grin against the juncture of your neck. His hands, big and warm and firm, slide up under the towel to knead at your soft thighs, rapidly emptying your brain.
He gives you a gentle nudge toward the bed.
“I don’t think we should do this,” you protest, but your lack of conviction is apparent in how eagerly you obey, practically tripping over yourself to perch on the edge of the mattress.
He raises one thick eyebrow. “Why?”
“Hiro’s going to find out.”
Issei unbuttons his shirt with unhurried movements, unveiling the smooth musculature of his chest. Its slopes and dips are made more dramatic thanks to the yellow-orange light of the single desk lamp. You swallow thickly, eyes drawn to the sharp cut of his collarbones and the faded scar on his right hip.
“Makki knows. He doesn’t care.”
His shorts and underwear quickly land in a pile on the floor.
Even in the harsh light, his dick is nothing short of mouth-watering. A pretty flush tip sits enticingly over its thick, veiny length. Coarse hairs curl tightly at the base, trimmed short to reveal more of him.
He kneels and shuffles forward to tug the towel from your clutch, uttering an appreciative groan before he tosses it aside.
“Fuck, just look at you.”
Your objections devolve into gasping moans when he pushes you back to lay open-mouthed kisses across your collarbones and down your chest, sluggishly mouthing over your hips, down the tops of your legs and back up, licking a stripe along the tender skin of your inner thigh as he splays your legs up and out. He dives in to suck on your clit and you almost choke.
Your entire body tenses with pleasure when he starts to lap at you. But it’s the way he meets your gaze with hooded eyes — intoxicated from a single taste — that kickstarts the last ounce of resistance left in your body.
“Issei, if you- fuck that’s ahhh- you’re just looking to get your dick wet…”
That stills his tongue. Even though you’re the one protesting, you can’t help but whine now that he’s actually stopped.
“That’s not…” He frowns, a mixture of your juices and his saliva glistening on his chin. In one fluid motion, Issei slides you off the bed and onto his lap. A shudder runs through him when his erection glides against your folds, though it doesn’t distract him.
“Is that what you think this is?”
You’re not sure what answer he’s looking for, so you stay silent, head turned to avoid his eyes.
He scrutinizes you for what seems like an age. How could you not know? All the times he’s tried to impress you? All the things he’s done in the hopes you’ll notice him? All the years he’s trailed behind you — to your house, to university, and even to Sendai?
“Do you remember when your parents made you start watching us after school?”
Your face scrunches in confusion at the change in topic, but he’s insistent.
“Do you remember? Right after you started high school?”
“Ok…yeah,” you indulge, “I remember. I’d just joined photography club and had to quit like a month later. I was pissed — they’d never cared about leaving us home alone before so I didn’t understand why I had to babysit you guys.”
“They didn’t actually care. I made up some lie — I don’t even remember what it was now — to convince my parents we needed a sitter. I figured they’d make you do it, and they did.”
You look up in confusion. Is he…blushing?
“And in eighth grade, when I needed help with math… I actually bombed my tests on purpose for a month because I knew my parents would ask you.”
Wait… “Was that what your fights were about?”
Hiro and Issei were thick as thieves, the only exceptions being in your first and last years of high school. Their fights got heated too, though neither ever told you what set them off, no matter how many times you tried to pry it out of them. The second time, Issei didn’t come over for almost a month afterward (you remember because you had to go to his house to tutor him) but things always eventually went back to normal.
Issei huffs a soft chuckle. “Yeah, Makki figured it out.”
“Figured what out?”
“It’s not obvious?” Issei drops his head onto your shoulder with something between a groan and a laugh. “I liked you. A lot. I still do.”
He admits it so casually, like he’s commenting on the weather. Like he and Hiro haven’t kept this secret for over a decade. Like it’s hardly a confession at all.
For once, you’re the one struggling to keep up.
“Wait…you like me?”
You feel a muffled snort. “That’s literally what I’ve been saying this whole time.”
“And Hiro’s…not mad? But he’s been acting so weird lately,” you point out.
“Oh that. He keeps trying to ‘give us space’ or something. I told him to cool it.”
“Oh.” Huh. Maybe it was obvious. You were just too worried about Hiro to notice that every time he flew out of a room with some flimsy excuse, you were left alone with Issei. Issei, who you like more than you expected. Who’s had a crush on you for more than a decade. Whose lap you’re currently nestled in, naked.
“Does that mean we can…” You shift, jerking when your clit catches his spongy tip.
He laughs, grinding his hips up to meet you.
“We sure can.”
You’re still wet, really wet, you’re reminded when your pussy glides against him, and getting more aroused by the second as Issei stares, mesmerized by the slick trail you leave along the length of his cock.
His hands slide down to give your ass an excited squeeze before lifting you up onto the edge of the bed.
Dextrous fingers part your puffy lips as he rests his cheek against your thigh, giving him the perfect view of your dripping cunt. He thumbs lightly at your clit and heaves a sigh of contentment when your hips buck in response.
“Didn’t get to enjoy this last time.”
You bite back a moan when he slides one long finger into you. It reaches deep, and you squirm in encouragement when he sinks a second one in. He works them nimbly, curling and scissoring them while rolling your clit, breaking you down into a whiny mess in seconds, until you’re dripping down his wrists and onto the sheets.
You’re so distracted by his fingers that you don’t notice him dive in, just feel his lips wrap around your clit with a slurp. He licks and sucks at you eagerly, and you can only gasp and writhe, trying to steady yourself with a fist in his soft wavy hair. The walls echo with your cries mingled with Issei’s enthusiastic groans and the wet suction of your cunt around his fingers.
It catches you by surprise when you cum, cresting fast and hard, pulling your body taut and whiting out your vision. Before you realize it, you’re already quaking with aftershocks, trying to twist away from the overwhelming sensation of him licking and suckling dreamily as you come down.
When he finally pulls his fingers out, he makes a show of sucking them clean, stroking himself as he smirks up at you.
He pushes himself up off the floor and god, fuck. He’s irresistible, his cock bobbing heavily between his legs as he gets on his hands and knees above you.
Issei leans down, humming happily when he wraps his mouth around your right nipple. He massages your chest with one hand and grips his cock with the other to smear his tip along your sopping pussy.
It feels good, but you squirm and push at his shoulders. “Want you in my mouth,” you beg.
He placates you with a hungry kiss. “Next time, ok? Next time. I can barely- I don’t think I can last long,” he admits wryly, “but next time we’ll do anything you want.”
Your eyelids flutter shut in anticipation when he lines himself up.
He pushes in slowly, first the fat mushroom tip, then the whole thick length of him, rocking himself in, out, in, inch by inch until he’s pressed flush against you. Issei groans when your face contorts with pleasure. The stretch is incredible. He stuffs you so full, finally hitting that place you’ve been unable to reach.
He takes things slow. Too slow. He wasn’t able to savor you before, but he’s not about to make the same mistake again. His long, languid strokes are just enough to have you grinding against him in frustration with every thrust.
“Let me enjoy this for a minute,” he rasps.
His hands trail restlessly across your body, caressing and squeezing every inch of skin he can reach. He kisses his way down your neck to roll his tongue around your nipple, biting and sucking one before moving to the other, and back again.
After what feels like hours, your patience finally gives out.
You smack him hard on the ass. “Issei! Fuck me already.”
That jolts his hips into action. The length of his body is laid on top of you, pinning your legs up against your shoulders as he pistons into you with surprising force. Wet slaps alternate with the loud squeak of the mattress.
You begin to quiver, your whole body shaking as the heat builds in your core. He reaches deep, so so deep, making you wail every time he bumps your clit and his cock hits that perfect spot inside of you over and over again.
“Ohhh- fuck, Issei please I’m-”
He barely has time to blink before you’re falling apart at the seams again. Wave after blinding wave of ecstasy crash over you, relentless.
Your pussy clenches hard, gripping his cock so firmly he can barely move. Not a second later, he pulls out with a shout. Through hazy eyes, you see his mouth drop open. He fists his cock only once before his body stiffens, convulsing as jets of hot cum shoot out to land on your cheeks, shoulders, chest, stomach, dribbling out to coat your pubes, before finally leaving him twitching.
The room fills with hoarse pants.
You laugh weakly at the mess. “Wow, you came a lot.”
“I think I almost blacked out,” he croaks.
With great effort, he pushes himself off the bed and returns with the box of tissues from your desk. He cleans you up with care, just like last time.
“I wanted to last longer,” he mumbles, pressing a sheepish kiss to your sternum before collapsing on you, pinning you down with his weight.
It does something funny to your heart to witness him like this, so different from his usual confidence.
“Next time,” you assure him.
“Next time?” He looks up, almost reverent.
“Yeah.” You smile and brush the damp curls away from his eyes.
Next time. He breaks out in an obnoxious grin. There’s going to be a next time. And if there’s a next time, there might be a time after that.
“You won’t even need to introduce me to your parents.”
You snort. “Ok, pump the brakes.”
When you finally make your way back to the kitchen (with Issei practically holding you up as you wobbled), you find one Hawaiian pizza and two-thirds of a pepperoni pizza sitting on the counter.
Issei loads up a plate for you both before heading down to the basement. You grab some cold beers and follow suit, pausing in the doorway to take a few calming breaths.
You don’t hear any yelling or scuffling — a positive sign. Hopefully, that means Hiro isn’t too angry.
You take one wary step, then another.
When you reach the bottom, your eyes hesitantly find Hiro’s. There’s an uneasy moment when he frowns at you from where he’s seated on the floor before he gives you a curt nod. It’s stiff, but definitely not angry, not even upset.
Your shoulders untense.
Issei waves you over to the couch where he settles you securely in his lap, his arms encircling your waist. You cast another wary glance at Hiro who just rolls his eyes.
“Glad you’re finally done ‘getting some water,’” Makki snipes. “I’ve been waiting forever to start the next episode.”
“I’m definitely not thirsty anymore if you know what I mean.” Mattsun wiggles his eyebrows suggestively.
Hiro’s face twists, revolted. “Ugh- I- ugh god, I don’t want to think about-” he sputters. His eyes flick to where Issei’s hands grope at your thighs and ass. “Whoa, ok rule number one: not when I’m right here. And rule number two-” there’s an uncomfortable pause before he mutters, “keep it down next time.”
Mattsun’s not at all chagrined. In fact, he puffs out his chest proudly.
You, on the other hand, shrink in absolutely mortification. Right when Issei opens his mouth to make another (probably vulgar) retort, you shove a slice of pizza in…with a little more force than you intended.
He chokes in surprise and your brother lets out a mean snicker. “Perfect timing! Serves you right.”
You expect him to continue bickering with Hiro, but Issei instead flashes you a dopey grin. “Thank you baby,” he says sweetly, muffled though it is by a mouthful of food.
The gleeful smirk drops right off Makki’s face and he whirls back toward the tv with a loud gag.
“You’re welcome,” you giggle. Your brain’s still playing catch-up with everything that’s happened today, but you think you like where this is heading.

Advanced Tumblr Things I Would Pay For as a Content Creator Fuck I Hate That Fucking Term But It's What We Use Now
A Google Cal etc. connection so I could manage an editorial calendar far easier. When things are in in queue they are COLOR A. When they have posted they are COLOR B. If I move them on Google Calendar, it updates in Tumblr's backed system... so I can manage it via Google Cal.
A Pinterest connection button where things would crosspost. This would be a button below "Post now" that would give me a drop down option of what board, if any, to post it to.
A Facebook/Instagram connection cross post button.
Tumblr media
I understand the feelings a lot of people have about Facebook and Instagram.
And.
I have a lot of folks who like my stuff that are on Facebook and Instagram.
Whenever I talk about Facebook on Tumblr I invariably get a comment or ask "pfft your'e still on Facebook?"
My fellow. I am building a business. If people like spooky things are on Facebook, I'm going to have a Facebook place for me to put spooky things here.
Allow me to specifically pin a post into a backend dashboard so I can see how a specific post is doing with likes, reblogs, what it is tagged with, etc.
A dashboard that brings up the tags people have added to my posts. A slider so I can say "show me every tag everywhere" vs. "show me the... 5 most popular tags."
A dashboard that would show me a heatmap of popular times and days of the week things of mine get posted. For me, personally, this is more a comfort in "it rarely matters because this is Tumblr" versus trying to pinpoint or optimize things. I am including this specifically because I LIKE DATA and this IS EXISTING METADATA so is an easy (...easy-ish... none of this is easy) win.
Tumblr media
A second queue. Works exactly like the first -- CONNECTED AS ABOVE WITH CALENDAR -- that let's me build a specific queue for "Hey! We have a new greeting card for sale!" The benefit of a second queue being I can pop things into here without worrying about timing and have it set to "run this once a week." Sometimes a "Hey we have a widget for sale" post needs to be scheduled. Sometimes I just need to have it run once a week.
The ability to reply to MESSAGES and INBOX and all other things via email. You know how in most support systems you get "Reply to this email to continue thread?" I am an email person. I am not a Tumblr Inbox person. I am not a Tumblr Chat person. I am an email person. Let me use this as a hub.
Speaking of email: An alert I can set up that sends me a weekly report of how many items are in queue.
An email alert I can set up when my queue hits [a figure I set].
Tumblr media
Facebook has surprisingly robust dashboards on how posts do. Their backend system is a fucking nightmare so don't do that, but the idea of being able to quickly understand "This post about mermaids did well" and "this post about vampires did better" is good.
As above, help me understand "Early July is a surprisingly good time for your posts about vampires. Cemeteries not so much -- that is great for August, though."
A Shopify plugin. Let me add "add to cart" on a post.
A MailChimp and other email plugin. Let me add "sign up for newsletter" on a post.
I don't want data on how other people are using this platform. I want data on how other people interact with my posts.
I will pay monthly for this. The immediate justification is easy: "this would help me sell a few more zines to people who already like my zines and have stated they wish to be informed when I have new zines."
I have my email settled in place but as a bonus option: You have domains, which make sense.
Start a "We are Tumblr, here is how to manage a domain" Tumblr where you regularly post articles about domain management.
Add an email system -- just fucking partner with Google or similar, don't build a goddamn email system.
Tumblr media
Tumblr's audience is full of weirdos making weird shit.
I can tell you from personal experience: "Hello fellow weirdo who wishes to Make Small Things for Sale. Let me help you figure out a small issue so you can take a step closer" is a viable business model.
Become the social media platform that lets folks say "I want to occasionally sell this thing I do as a hobby. And/or. I am literally just starting out. Help me do that."
Tumblr media
@staff text me I'm cute and I have ideas.
Some of them even make sense.

Not to be a total Ray apologist (especially now at all times!) but I am somewhat irked at the way Top and some online opinions talk about Ray "dragging" Mew into his destructive lifestyle as if Mew is an innocent lamb being led astray. Mew is an adult who knows exactly what he's getting into with Ray - he's spent the past couple of years chastising him over said lifestyle, and he knows it's driven by Ray's substance abuse and mental health issues. Yes he's heartbroken so isn't making the best choices, but he is still responsible for those choices . Ray, however is an addict. We know this, Mew knows this, Ray denies knowing this. The idea that the addict is more responsible than his non-addict friend (who is very much cognizant of addict's addiction) when said friend decides to dip his toes into the self-destructive world of said addict...well, that's something. People rightly criticised Ray for demonstrating a type of 'poverty tourism' during ep 5 and as far as I can see, Mew's actions seem to be something similar, because we all know it's not going to stick - he's going to try on the unhealthy hedonism shoes cos he's pissed and heartsick, but he can take them off whenever he wants, whereas for Ray those shoes are cement blocks made from childhood trauma which are dragging him down to an early death (as Mew himself prophesied only an ep ago!).
On an entirely unrelated note, my two favourite First moments in this ep were 1) the adorable little noise he made after Ray asked him to help him/pulled out the 'na?' and 2) after Ray asks if he really doesn't want to talk to his dad, there's a second where you can see him imagining it before he sort of shakes himself out of it - it's such a lovely and subtle moment. And I think it's a pattern that repeats in his interactions with Ray - we see him allow himself to fall under his spell, or live in the moment, imagine what his life could be, and we also frequently see him give a little shake of the head and a rueful smile as if to gently knock some sense back into himself. Like we saw in ep 5, his life follows a routine necessitated by his financial situation and the emotional walls he's built up as a result of this and perhaps his romantic history, and he acts like he's fine with it, but then little cracks sneak in now and then that serve to remind him he's just surviving, not thriving. And I do think he's okay with not knowing his dad, and of course he's right about families not having to be mum/dad/child, but still, there's that wistful moment of 'what if' that seems to be a recurring theme throughout his story.
That's a great point about Mew being able to live Ray's addictive lifestyle with none of the longterm consequences; it's definitely a nice callback to Ray's poverty tourism and the ways in which these characters are adapting to other characters' lifestyles and being let into their world. Ray got to see Sand's world and became more empathetic towards him in the process. Maybe this foray into the world of drugs, alcohol, and hard partying will show Mew something similar about Ray? Specifically regarding his own criticisms.
I want Mew to open his eyes to his own errors when chastising Ray about drugs and alcohol. I want Mew to understand that simply lecturing someone and looking down on them isn't enough to make them quit. I want him to see why Ray has turned to these methods of release, and why even if he tried, he wouldn't be able to get himself out easily. This could be a groundbreaking moment for Mew to get to experience a fraction of what Ray is going through (not on a psychological level exactly, but as far as the addictiveness of drugs and alcohol). And yeah, Top's anger over Ray corrupting Mew is frustrating, because he acts as if Mew is a little puppy on a leash, going whichever way Ray pulls him. We know for a fact that Mew is capable of making his own decisions, and whether or not he's going through a heartbreak doesn't change that. He's letting himself fall, and he can ultimately only blame himself; he knows what he's getting himself into with Ray.
(Sidenote, but this is such a big blow to Ray--agreeing to be with him only when you're at the lowest of the low and your judgement is impaired. Mew is winning friend of the year once again...)
First! I agree--he does a great job with subtlety as far as making us aware that he is curious about what it would be like to know his dad. One of the reasons I think First is so good in this role is that he's excellent at portraying the little cracks in Sand's facade, whether it's about Ray or his father. He's good at acting one way but clueing the audience in that he really feels another way. I'm not an actor, but I suspect executing all of those emotions would be really hard to do.
Speaking of Sand though, I just. Want to wrap him up in a hug and tell him that he deserves better. (But also, SandRay endgame PLEASE.)

Best Aid - Part Six
Modern Tommy Shelby x Reader - Masterlist
Previous parts: 1 - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5
Summary: you are a young doctor in Birmingham. After a crazy incident, Thomas Shelby shows up at your hospital. You don’t know much about the man everyone seems to fear, but you definitely will.
Warning: swearing, blood, mention of torture and abortion/misscariage. And overdose. Jesus, dark episode? haha
A/N:  Comment and interact, tell me what you think! it means a looot.
English is my second language so I apologize in advance for the grammar mistakes.
︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵‿︵
The room you were in now was five times larger than your entire apartment. Thomas's aunt's hotel was a thousand times more than you had expected. In your hotel "room," you had a kitchen, a dining room, a TV room, a massive bedroom, and an even bigger bathroom. It's practically a fully furnished luxury apartment with room service, which, according to him, is 100% complimentary for you. The hotel was a bit farther from the hospital, but it didn't make much of a difference.
You felt somewhat out of place, sitting on the light gray, probably more expensive than your car, plush sofa. "Please don't destroy anything," you whispered to Ozzy, who was nestled on your lap.
Why exactly you were here remained a mystery to you. Sure, there's all that "your life is in danger" stuff, but why are you here? Thomas brings everyone around him who's in danger to this hotel? Or were you an exception? And why would you be? Would it be too arrogant to think you were the only one he cared about to this extent? Why would you even want to think that?
In the past few days, you felt your world flip, everything turned upside down. You let your body sink deeply into the sofa, your head falling backward and resting on the soft cushions. Your eyes closed out of exhaustion from the days that had passed, the hours you couldn't sleep. Now, for some strange reason, you felt safe, and within seconds, you slept like you hadn't in days.
**
"Who is she exactly?" Polly asked Thomas as they sipped on whiskey in the hotel restaurant. The restaurant was bustling, guests enjoying their dinner to the soothing sounds of jazz, relishing the cuisine crafted by a Michelin-starred chef.
"The doctor. You know who she is, Pol," Thomas replied, grabbing a cigarette and sliding it to his lips. In a fluid motion, Polly plucked the cigarettes from his mouth.
"Smoking is prohibited here," she said, crushing the cigarette in her hand, causing Thomas to roll his eyes. "I know who she is, but why is she here?" she inquired, gazing into her nephew's eyes, as if trying to read between the lines of his thoughts.
"She's in danger," he replied.
"Aren't we all?" she asked, and he nodded.
"Yes. But she doesn't know anything, Pol. Even if she did, she wouldn't know how to protect herself from it," he sighed. "I can't allow them to kill another person who has nothing to do with any of this," he said, his voice intense.
Pol nodded, her head slowly bobbing back and forth. "Be careful, Thomas. You might do more harm to her if you fall in love," she warned.
Thomas scoffed, shifting his gaze to the restaurant's entrance. "Can you keep an eye on her?" he asked, avoiding eye contact.
"Poor girl," Polly whispered to herself. "Sure, I’ll make sure she is ok," she shrugged.
"Thanks, Pol," he said, then downed the contents of his glass in one gulp.
"Would you like dinner?" Polly asked, but Thomas shook his head.
"No, I've got work to do," he said, rising from his seat and bidding his aunt farewell with a quick kiss on the top of her head.
“Bloody hell” She cursed as she watched him walk away. She knew he was already too involved with you and that could be a problem. 
The last few times Thomas fell in love were chaotic. Let's just say that when he falls in love, he doesn't think straight. Granted, his relationships weren't exactly healthy.
The first woman he fell in love with nearly ten years ago was named Grace. At that time, Thomas was just starting to build his empire. He fell deeply in love with this woman, who turned out to be a spy. Luckily, she was terrible at her job. Several tumultuous months of on-and-off again relationship followed as she was torn between doing her job and allowing herself to fall for the man she had to spy on. 
He spiraled when she decided to do "the right thing" and left his life with a folder full of evidence against Thomas. He had to take her down, well, actually Polly did because he was too busy drowning in alcohol. Grace's name is still not spoken in the Shelby family to this day.
The second one was a crazy Russian, he did business with her family. She was the "if you jump, I jump" type. For a while, Polly thought she might mean something good for him. He was happy, felt alive. She injected some fervor into his life, a kind of motivation.
However, because of her, drugs became a problem. She, like many rich people, had her vices, cocaine being the worst of them. They had an intense nightlife, so intense that it became their entire life. He spent so much time with his face in the white powder at night that during the day, he couldn't function. To make matters worse, he dragged Arthur into it.
Polly spent a long time trying to pull him out of that reality, but nothing worked. Until the Russian woman discovered she was pregnant. Tommy, as crazy and reckless as he might be, he always puts family first. 
After a long conversation with Polly, he knew that he needed to change, but she didn't want to. To start with, she didn't want the child. That was enough to make him crazy angry because he did want it and he knew that if she didn’t, there was nothing he could do about it. 
During that period, they argued 24/7. Until he finally won and made her promise that for nine months, just nine months, she wouldn't use any drugs. In the meantime, he gave her everything she wanted… cars, a house, luxury clothes, horses, businesses, whatever she desired, she had it.
For four months, they went together to the obstetrician, already looking at baby clothes in stores. Polly thought everything was settled. But her sobriety didn't last long. Thomas had to travel to the United States for a weekend, and during that weekend he was away, she had an overdose. It's a common thing, when an addict stays sober for a while and then uses again, they usually maintain the same dosage, but their tolerance is lower. She died, and so did the baby.
After that, Thomas was never the same. He never got seriously involved with any woman again, and it's been six years.
**
You woke up with a start, sitting up abruptly on the sofa as your brain raced to understand where you were. Something that often happens when you take those heavy afternoon naps. 
You brought your hands to your face, rubbing your eyes as you tried to calm down, realizing you felt strangely well-rested. Glancing at your wristwatch, you had an hour before your shift started, so you decided to get up and start getting ready.
In the bathroom, the bathtub seemed to beckon you for a long soak, and you allowed yourself to take advantage of the room's amenities. 
After you were dressed, you heard a knock on the door followed by someone yelling "room service!" You frowned and opened the door to see a woman whose eyes held a certain depth and charisma, and her curly brown hair framed her face in a way that exuded confidence and charm.
"I know you," you said as you tried to figure out where you knew her from.
"Yes, we've met. I'm Polly," she said, extending her hand towards you.
"Oh, yes, of course! It's nice to see you again. Thank you for letting me stay here" you smiled and shook her hand.
"No problem. I brought breakfast for you," she said, pushing a metal cart into the room, forcing the door to swing open, making you step aside.
"That's very kind of you," you replied with a hint of doubt in your voice.
Polly assessed the surroundings and turned her attention back to you. "Didn't sleep?" she asked, looking inside the room, which had a perfectly made bed.
"Oh, I did. I was so tired that I passed out on the sofa," you said with a shy smile.
"I see," she removed the cover from the food on the cart. "I hope you like croissants."
"Who doesn't?" you smiled.
Polly chuckled softly “You have no idea how many people don't”
She said as she began arranging a small breakfast spread on a nearby table, which included not only croissants but also a selection of pastries, fresh fruit, and a steaming pot of coffee. 
“I’ll let you eat” she smiled “if you need anything, you let me know”
“Ok” you nodded “thank you” 
As you started to enjoy your breakfast, you couldn't help but feel a sense of gratitude for Polly's unexpected kindness.
Your shift at the hospital was calm, with nothing too dramatic happening, just a few broken bones and some cases of diarrhea. But with almost two hours to go, your boss gives you a call and asks if you can pull a double shift because the other doctor had a last-minute issue.
You agree reluctantly because, let's face it, you need the extra cash to move into a new apartment since you're definitely not going back to your old one.
"Hey, beautiful," Jeremy said as he approached you. You were reading a patient's chart who was just admitted.
"Hey," you replied, happy to see him. "Oh, I'm so glad you're on this night shift. I've missed you," you said with a smile and hugged him, setting the chart aside.
"Oh, girl, I had to take my fiancé for a colonoscopy. Poor thing..." he said, and you smiled.
"Why? What's wrong with him?" you asked.
"Suspected benign prostatic hyperplasia," he replied, and you nodded.
"But he's so young. BPH usually happens in older patients. It's a bit weird, isn't it?" you furrowed your brow, and he agreed as you walked through the hospital hallway.
"Yeah, it is, but the doctor doesn't think it's anything serious, and I'm trusting him. And don't you dare fill my head with worries," he warned you with an annoyed look.
"It probably isn't anything serious," you reassured him with a laugh.
"How is your man, by the way?" he asked.
"What man?" you asked, frowning.
"Thomas?" he said as if it were obvious.
"He's not my man Jer, for God's sake," you replied, avoiding the question.
"Hmm. I see you still haven't sorted things out with him. Why?" he asked.
“Too complicated” you answered “can we please not talk about it?”
“You are really just gonna let him go that easily? not even one fuck to see if things match? What if he’s that kind of guy who fucks you senseless? He sure looks like it” he chuckled 
“You are so… so dirty” you said, not finding the right words
“That's what my fiance tells me” he smirked, making you laugh
Your shift continued calmly until around two in the morning when the same figures you had prayed to any higher power, be it God or the universe, not to return to the hospital, came back. Arthur and John Shelby walked in, carrying a man covered in blood. Thomas walked calmly behind them. The nurses on duty rushed to assist in transporting the man, who appeared unconscious, to a bed.
"I need him alive," Thomas said as you passed in front of him on your way to the man. You stopped and stared at him for a few seconds, a mix of confusion and anger on your face. Looking at his hands, you noticed the scratches on his knuckles and blood, a lot of it. You thought of a million things to say but simply shook your head and continued to walk to the man.
"Okay, what do we have?" you asked, putting on your gloves as you saw Jeremy opening the patient's clothing. Other nurses were connecting him to the cardiac monitor while another assessed his neurological responses.
"Male, around 30, beaten and with a gunshot wound, no signs of exit wound," Jeremy said “look at this” he said showing you the man's hands, all nails were pulled out “He was tortured.”
"Neurological signs are normal," the nurse assessing responded.
"Alright, let's control the bleeding. Can someone get a blood bag, just in case?" you requested and began evaluating the gunshot wound in his shoulder, which appeared to be a few days old, already starting to show signs of infection. "Oh, jesus. Can someone bring the portable X-ray; we need to see where the bullet is lodged."
"There's no bullet," Thomas said, standing a few steps away from the bed.
The nurses looked at you, puzzled, waiting to see if they should fetch the X-ray or not. "Go," you said, choosing to ignore him.
"It's a waste of time. You won't find anything," he insisted.
"Do you want to do my job?" you snapped, annoyed, and when he remained silent, you continued, "Then shut up and let us work.". You knew if you told him to wait outside or to fuck off he would ignore you and that would piss you off more.
You turned your attention back to the man. "Has his blood been collected?" you asked.
"Yes, I told the lab to rush the tests," Jeremy replied, now cleaning the patient, who was covered in both dried and fresh blood, making it difficult to see the wounds. The man’s face was unrecognizable, all swollen, red and purple. 
"I want a chest and a head X-ray," you instructed. As soon as the radiologist arrived with the machine, he nodded and started to do his work. 
"Jaw fractured in many places," the radiologist reported as he examined the images. "He has some signs of pneumonia, his bronchi are very radiolucent. Lungs don't look too good. No sign of free fluid and no sign of any bullets. There are also five broken ribs, all still in place with no indication of lung perforation. Bullet wound looks clean, nothing damaged around it" he sighed “that’s all” 
"Thank you," you said with a smile as you watched him walk away. "It's likely he has aspirational pneumonia, given the amount of blood in his nostrils and mouth," you remarked while examining his mouth. "Alright, let's begin with broad-spectrum antibiotics and some pain relief. We'll proceed with the dressings, and remember, the bullet wound requires pressure. I won't suture the wound because it looks bad and infected” you took another look at the wound 
You worked efficiently with your team to stabilize the patient, providing him with the necessary care. Despite the earlier tension with Thomas, you focused on your duties as a doctor. The man's life was in your hands, and you were determined to do everything you could to save him.
“We'll await the results of the blood test to determine if a transfusion is necessary; I suspect it is due to his pale mucous membranes, but we'll confirm that. He does appear somewhat dehydrated, so we can prepare the fluids, but let's hold off on it a bit. If he's hypovolemic, giving him fluid prematurely could worsen his condition." You continued, "We should also work on warming him up," your gaze shifting to his pale and cold skin. "Monitoring his vital signs will be crucial. Keep a close watch on his oxygen saturation, heart rate, and blood pressure. Please inform me immediately if you notice any changes."
As the medical team swiftly began implementing your orders, you kept a watchful eye on the patient's condition. The antibiotics and pain relief were administered promptly, and the dressings were applied with care, paying special attention to the bullet wound's pressure.
You took a deep breath, observing the medical team as they moved in an almost synchronized rhythm. The controlled chaos of the emergency room was like a well-orchestrated dance, each member playing their part with precision and efficiency.
Taking a step back, you scanned the area, but Thomas was nowhere to be seen. You walked outside to search for him and found him with his brothers, right outside, smoking.
"Is he alive?" he asked when he saw you.
"Did you do that?" you asked, ignoring his questions. He ran his tongue over his lips, briefly averting his gaze as if he had no patience for your question.
"Is he alive?" he asked again, this time with more firmness in his voice.
"Yes..." you responded almost in a whisper.
"Good," he said, tossing his cigarette on the ground and heading towards his car.
"I need to know his name; he needs a file," you said urgently.
"Oh, he's a John Doe," he replied, his back turned to you as he walked away, almost mockingly.
"He was tortured!" you yelled.
"Was he?" he asked, turning to you as he opened the door to his car. "I didn't notice. Call me if he dies."
You stood there, seething with anger and frustration, watching him drive away without a care in the world. The Shelby brothers remained smoking, exchanging glances as they witnessed the tense encounter between you and Thomas.
“What the fuck are both still doing here?” you asked
“Making sure no one comes for him,” Arthur said, trying to hide his chuckle
You shook your head and returned to the hospital. You couldn't shake off the unsettling feeling that something was terribly wrong with this situation. The mysterious patient had been brutally beaten and left for dead, and Thomas's nonchalant attitude left a sour taste in your mouth. A wave of nausea washed over you. The same hands that had once made you crave for more were now capable of something so terrible. Doubt and unease gnawed at your mind as you grappled with the unsettling reality of Thomas Shelby's duality.

Adachi trying to frame Yukiko
Tumblr media
Early in Persona 4, there are a couple scenes where Adachi tries to frame Yukiko as Mayumi's murderer and raise suspicion about her.
April 17th, after you get caught with weapons at Junes:
Adachi: Well, that announcer, Ms. Yamano, was staying at the Amagi Inn before the first murder. Adachi: Seems Ms. Yamano had some harsh words for the manager about the staff's attitude towards guests. The stress of it caused the manager to collapse. And with Ms. Amagi being the manager's daughter…She must've felt pretty strongly about the incident, y'know. Adachi: By the way, did Ms. Amagi ever hint that she might be leaving the house? Adachi: 'Cause if not, there's been some theories floating around that she's laying low for some reason or another…
After you save Yukiko from the TV:
Adachi: We were just questioning Ms. Amagi, but she says she doesn't remember anything that happened while she was missing. And we can't figure out her whereabouts during the missing period, either. It's like she really disappeared. Adachi: It's all pretty fishy, if you ask me… Like there's something else going on.
On April 30th, when Adachi meets up with the kids at Junes and Yukiko is with the group, he doesn't say anything to her or about her. Seems he's dropped the subject... This all looks very silly after you learn he's the real killer. And so these interactions get written off by players as, "Adachi trying to drop hints about the case so that his little game with Namatame and the Investigation Team can continue".
But what "hint" is he dropping here? What is the point of his accusations? Or, idk, is there a point, besides to move the plot along? "Move the plot along" feels really, really generous. Chie seemed concerned about Yukiko going missing even before Yosuke brings up what Adachi said. The kids would have gone into the TV to try and save Yukiko regardless.
Tumblr media
I'm not really confident about this because it *does* get dropped pretty quickly, and this feels like a bit of a stretch even for me and my walls of tl;dr. But I get the feeling that Adachi is trying to frame Yukiko or make her seem suspicious because he's (at first) concerned she might do exactly what she does in December. This would be pretty bad for him, seeing as how he's trying to get away with murder. And him sending Namatame off to try and kill someone then get blamed instead hadn't produced any results this early.
During December, Yukiko brings to light that Adachi showed up at the ryokan claiming to be Mayumi's police babysitter. Based on what we see, the game suggests that Adachi was lying about being assigned to her. But at the time, the ryokan staff didn't know any better. They took his word for it, and he hung around and chatted with them for a bit.
This makes Yukiko an eyewitness who can place him at the Amagi Ryokan before Mayumi's death, and that's why he's trying to make her seem untrustworthy or discredit her. Like, "What? Me? Mayumi Yamano? Impossible. This girl is crazy. She did it. She had a motive." But he drops it because after Yukiko comes out of the TV, she doesn't say anything that could implicate him. (And he would have an idea cause as he says after you rescue Yukiko from the TV, him and Dojima question her after she turns up.)
Tumblr media
I have seen people call "Yukiko not bringing this up until December" a plot hole. I don't know. After you bring her out of the TV, it's like, "Shadows, blah blah, Personas, talking teddy bear, blah blah, amnesia about kidnapping, TV world induced exhaustion, Kanji's arc starts 5 seconds later". I doubt that "hey Adachi said he was there to guard Mayumi" is on the forefront of her mind.
What really puts this out of "plot hole" territory for me is that even if the kids think Adachi is a moron, they still respect that he's an officer. The power behind the badge is a very, very easy way to explain why Yukiko didn't think twice of him showing up at the ryokan to begin with.
And it's not just that one time, and it's not just her either. Like, Yosuke taking Adachi's accusation of Yukiko seriously is tied to him being a detective working on the case. Would Yosuke feel the same way if it was Kashiwagi saying this? Yosuke and Naoto respect that Adachi is in charge when the kids try to get the protagonist out of the interrogation room, Chie invites Adachi to Marukyu on the stakeout because he's an on duty officer, Kanji didn't think twice about his behavior specifically because he's an officer.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Semi-relatedly, I thought it was funny that out all of the Persona 4 characters, Adachi has special interactions with Yukiko in BB Tag. (Edit: Then again, Yukiko does have a special quote when she wins vs Adachi in Ultimax. So hm idklol.) On their partner victory screen, Yukiko says she won't question Adachi for now, but the Investigation Team will stop him if it turns out he's up to no good. And Adachi calls her and her friends naive for trusting him (even if only a little) enough to not be breathing down his neck already. Like, girl, come on, didn't you learn the first time?

Kazuki Dragging Rei Around
I skimmed through the episodes again (#1 - 7) to see when exactly Kazuki drags Rei around and in what kind of situations. Now, I didn’t fully rewatch all the episodes, just skim them, so I may have missed an instance, but this is what I found:
Episode 1: No dragging at all, even in the opening scene where they need to go to the daycare to pick up Miri.
Episode 2: This iconic scene, of course.
Tumblr media
Where Kazuki is dragging Rei and carrying Miri from the gun fight going down. In this situation it’s just a safety thing. He needs to get all three of them out of there. He basically has to drag Rei away even though Rei is in his element. Though, because Rei is in his element here, he doesn’t make any complaints about this, he’s just focused on shooting his gun. Rei also doesn’t have much of an emotional attachment to Miri yet.
Episode 3: Kazuki doesn’t physically drag Rei anywhere in this episode. But he does kind of bring him along for the ride to see Miri’s mother. 
Tumblr media
Rei kinda just goes along with it though, probably because he knows that Kazuki does actually want to keep Miri and he has started to form his own emotional attachment to her. But yeah, he is initially just met to keep an eye on Miri. Miri drags him to the park to play in a way too.
Though, once again, no physical dragging takes place here.
Episode 4: This is the episode where Kazuki drags Rei. He drags two times for sure, and one time that is heavily implied:
Tumblr media
The first drag is to the first daycare that turned out to be an awful place. The second time is only implied and it is to Miri’s daycare (Aozora). The last time is when they are at Kyu’s bar and have to go pick up Miri at the daycare. In all of these cases, Rei was being dragged away from or being kept from indulging in activities and habits he likes (video games and smoking) to do something responsible and largely connected to Miri. He is also in his “Off” mode during all of these moments, not in his “On” mode and focused on his job.
The rest under a Read More due to length.
Episode 5: Kazuki doesn’t drag Rei around in Episode 5, but Miri does for at one point.
Tumblr media
When the subject of their jobs gets brought up, Rei was going to try and escape it by jumping into his work “Scouting time.” But Miri sees him, stops him, asks him a few questions, and that causes him to turn around. No need to drag him back when Miri does it for him, lol.
Tumblr media
It shows how Miri has a much bigger influence on Rei now.
Episode 6: Kazuki drags Rei, but not because Rei doesn’t want to go somewhere, but more so because they aren’t supposed to go there. 
Tumblr media
Rei and Miri are once again shown to be very similar in this regard. Miri is shown to be a good kid who sticks to the rules. That is her general understanding of “right vs wrong” at this stage in her life. Taiga is shown going against the rules, so she knows that he is wrong. He also goes against societal rules (taking food, etc.) to get attention, so Miri also views that as being “wrong” and “mean.” Because often “mean things” are things that hurt others in society. 
Tumblr media
Now, we know because of Rei’s upbringing that he doesn’t necessarily have a normal sense of right from wrong. In Episode 1 he was ready to shoot through Miri to get their target after all. But from the brief interactions we’ve seen with his father (and based on the kind of work that he was trained to do from a young age), it would make sense that Rei would be hyper aware of following rules that are laid down for him. 
Tumblr media
So that’s why he doesn’t want to go to the zoo. Not because he wouldn’t want to (when they actually get there, he seems quite excited at going to a zoo for the first time), but because it was something they were told they shouldn’t do by the daycare. Those were the rules. Mirii is kinda the same. Taiga does something he isn’t supposed to do (like Kazuki), Miri follows/gets dragged along (like Rei), but both her and Rei end up having a bit of an adventure and a good time (overall).
Episode 6 is also the first time we see Rei (alone) bring Miri to school. It’s likely a first in general, since Rei was shocked at Miri stating she wanted him to bring her in. And I think that is a key thing to note here, Miri basically demands that Rei bring her in and not Kazuki:
Tumblr media
She doesn’t ask. She states that Rei will bring her, so he is kinda “dragged” into doing so by Miri. He really has no other choice. 
Tumblr media
Because neither Rei nor Kazuki are certain about how Miri is feeling about Kazuki after going to the zoo, Rei has to be the one that picks her up from daycare as well. Once again, there really isn’t any other option.
Episode 7: Now, in Episode 7, there isn’t any dragging on a physical or narrative level here in regards to Rei, Kazuki, or Miri. Kazuki does up and leave for the episode, but this isn’t dragging Rei into doing anything. Kazuki (and Miri) have both already done that enough with Rei. Now it is Rei’s time to drag himself into doing things. And he does them. 
Tumblr media
When Miri asks about daycare, she isn’t demanding he bring her like Episode 6, she just asks about it. Rei realizes the time and then he actively gets up and starts getting Miri ready and brings her there (and then back). Miri will remind Rei of the things he needs to do with her in this episode (”I’m hungry” etc.), but Rei is the one that actively does it on his own (even if it is just ordering pizza). 
It will be interesting to see if Kazuki and/or Miri dragging Rei around physically or narratively will continue to happen now or if the series will stick to this growth we’ve been seeing build up, and have Rei take the initative on his own more and more.

There's a lot to be said about Hazbin Hotel. I don't hate it, but I'm also not a die-hard fan. But one thing that gets me in terms of pacing is that it feels like Frankenstein's monster, stitching together important scenes from a longer show while leaving out any of the build up that would make those scenes so impactful.
Now, I get it. 8 episodes at 25 minutes each is an unfortunate hand to be dealt and they didn't know if they'd get a second season. But a bunch of the scenes that can be considered "good" are only good in isolation; the second they are put into context you realize "wow, that came WAY faster than it should have." Without context, they just feel hollow.
Like I actually got thrown for a loop when Husk said how he didn't want Angel to throw away all his progress because... did Angel make progress? There's one line in episode 5 that implies he's starting to make improvements but last I heard between Husk and Angel, Angel called himself a "coked-up d sucking h" and Husk's response was "baby that's fine by me." That doesn't exactly support this idea of Husk being invested in Angel trying to make progress.
"You didn't know" is an awesome song and a chilling scene but that doesn't take away the fact that it feels like we skipped 3 episodes of development for Emily and Sera. It's awesome in isolation, but when you watch the episode it feels less impactful because... these characters literally didn't exist prior to this episode. It's a cool scene built on the world's shakiest foundation.
Same thing happened with "whatever it takes". This gorgeous power ballad is sang by Carmilla, but it's cheapened by the fact that this is Carmilla's SECOND SCENE. The show has given us no reason why we should care, we haven't seen her interact with her daughters beyond one of them calling her "mom"... there's just no development.
Do you see what I mean when I say this feels like we are missing scenes??? Like yeah, the show has flaws, but I feel like a good 70% of the structural issues would have been fixed with a little more time, and it was time the crew was unfortunately not given.
TL;DR the best way to get a positive experience out of Hazbin Hotel is to watch the scenes you like and then imagine the moments that led up to them.

🡸 Previous episode
[PODCAST INTRO/THEME]
🦊: *bumps into the mic* Oop! *in between chuckles* Sorry guys!~
Jungkook: Get it together!
🦊: Oh my god~ HEY, King!
Jungkook: Hello peasant.
Yoongi: *snickers*
🦊: O- You know what? That's mean~
Jungkook: *trying not to laugh* Okay
🦊: He's just pouty because he lost in a 1-v-1 on Splatoon against me. Jungkook: It's a stupid game~ Why is it in third person?~ And, why can you see my snipper laser?
🦊: Just get over it!~
Jungkook: Okay!~ Fine! *long pause* For our listeners~
🦊: Exactly. For our listeners~
Jungkook: Before we begin, we do have a millennial in our sights.
🦊: *snickers*
Jungkook: *in between chuckles* This is our second guest! Min Yoongi!~
🦊: *claps their hands*
Yoongi: Hello everyone! I'm Suga from BTS.
Jungkook: Hyung, don't be so formal~ Our listeners don't care.
🦊: Legit, they like that we're relatable.
Yoongi: Okay, okay
🦊: Just like Suchwita.
Yoongi: Without the alcohol.
Jungkook: *gasps* Should we?!~
🦊: *gasps* Daehyun?
*long pause* *muffled voice*
🦊: *gasps* Okay! I'll get it! *in a distant voice* Whiskey?
Yoongi: Yes, please
Jungkook: Get us a beer, please!~
[Spongebob Narrator: Five minutes later]
🦊: We all have our alcohol!~
Yoongi: Thank you, Y/N.
Jungkook: Thank you!
🦊: I would just like to say, we saw Barbie~
Jungkook: We saw Barbie.
Yoongi: Oh! I haven't seen it.
🦊: *gasps* Oh my god~ You know, it's okay. I'll take you.
Jungkook: Y/N cried!
Yoongi: Really?~ Why?
Both: Well-
🦊: Okay! First off, I did NOT expect that Billie Eilish song to hit me so hard!
Jungkook: And not to give spoilers but, it was everything good.
🦊: It's a TRUE feminist icon. It's not misandry, which is what basically every publication is saying it is-
Jungkook: Oh! Absolutely not.
🦊: And it's not misogyny. It's true feminism. Wh-
Jungkook: Without spoiling anything, it had all three-
🦊: Yeah!
Jungkook: It had misandry, misogyny, AND feminism. And it showed how both misandry and misogyny can just be downright ugly and hurtful for the people who are being disliked, and prejudiced while feminism is genuinely something we should all aspire to do.
Yoongi: Oh! I'll give it a shot.
🦊: I saw that in East Asia, a lot of women are taking their partners, especially their cis-male partners, to see Barbie. And basically, they're testing how much of a green flag they are depending on how they feel before the movie, how long they last during the movie and what is their thoughts after the movie.
Jungkook: Oh! Wait, am I a green flag?
🦊: *long pause* Well-
Jungkook: *in between laughs* WHY'RE YOU THINKING ABOUT IT?!
Yoongi: *laughs*
🦊: *in between laughs* Okay! You're the type of green that is making its way toward yellow, but it's not completely yellow.
Jungkook: Okay, at least I'm not completely yellow or orange OR RED!
Yoongi: Be grateful.
🦊: Exa- Thank you, Yoongi!~
Jungkook: Definitely watch it, hyung.
Yoongi: Would you have watched it if Y/N hadn't taken you to the movies?
Jungkook: *silence*
*Yoongi and 🦊 laugh loudly*
Jungkook: Okay! Okay! I would have, but I would not have dressed up!
🦊: I was SO surprised we were the only ones dressed up!
Jungkook: Obviously, I was Ken!
🦊: I dressed up as Barbie!
Yoongi: Y/N when we go, do you wanna dress up too?
🦊: *gasps* Really?!
Yoongi: Yeah, I'll be K-
🦊: No~ Be Allan~ Because you're one of a kind~
Jungkook: *gasps* OH! Okay RIZZGOD!
Yoongi: *snickers then laughs*
Jungkook: You trying to rizz up Yoongi-hyung?
🦊: No~ *long pause* Okay, yeah~
*All laugh*
🦊: Before we begin! I would just like to say that this topic was thought up by Jungkook.
Yoongi: I would have liked to participate in the music one.
🦊: Oh! We can have your opinion on that!
Yoongi: *long pause* Well, I would but honestly Jungkook basically said what I thought about reggaetón.
🦊: Fair enough. I know you have some... *chuckles* Opinions on dembow and phonk.
Yoongi: *chuckles* They're just not for me, but you and Jungkook look like you have fun while dancing to it.
Jungkook: And not like... perreando!
🦊: OH! HE ROLLED HIS R'S!~
Jungkook: Rrrrr~ *laughs* We just goof around.
🦊: We meme dance.
Yoongi: *chuckles*
🦊: Like... You know how there's the stereotype that white people can't dance? We dance like that stereotype.
Jungkook: Just for fun. Not to make fun of anyone.
🦊: Mmno
Yoongi: They look cute together.
Jungkook: We're not dating.
🦊: So, in this episode we're gonna talk about television shows.
Jungkook: Y/N wanted to bring Yoongi on because he's about to head to th-
🦊: Oh my god! Please don't remind me!
Yoongi: *snickers then laughs*
Jungkook: Y/N is really close to all seven of us, but they're especially close to Hobi-hyung, Yoongi-hyung, and me. And since Hobi-hyung is already there~
🦊: I'm suffering...
Jungkook: They have- Okay, they have not taken it well!
Yoongi: Really?
🦊: Yeah... I think that's why in the last episode I cried. You told us- Or, rather, told your close friends when you were leaving, and it was no joke, the day before we decided to record.
Yoongi: Oh!~ I'm sorry!
🦊: I really tried to hold it in, but like thinking about Hobi already being there, and you leaving, just made me think, you know-
Yoongi: It's inevitable...
🦊: Yeah... Jungkook is gonna leave too, and that made me really sad because Hobi and you are my close friends, and that hurts. And I have cried. But Jungkook is my BEST friend... So...
Jungkook: But it's not like you're NOT gonna see us for a year and a half. We saw Hobi-hyung and Jin-hyung!
🦊: Oh my god, I hugged Hobi SO HARD! You guys have no idea. I lowkey cried too.
Jungkook: Both of them had tears in their eyes.
Yoongi: It was so beautiful to see.
🦊: *singing* When did it end?~ All the enjoyment?~
Jungkook: *singing* I'm sad again!~
Both: *singing* Don't tell my boyfriend~
Jungkook: *singing* It's not what he's made for~
Yoongi: *chuckles*
Jungkook: Going back to it.
Yoongi: Mhm.
Jungkook: Y/N wanted you here to get a perspective of shows you watched as a kid since when you were in first grade, we were both just about to be born.
🦊: *snickers*
Yoongi: *hums* Interesting.
🦊: Which, okay, let's be honest. You at the age of 12 were already a professional producer, so...-
Jungkook: Ballin' with a dollar in his pocket.
Yoongi: I was making money but it wasn't like-
🦊: A lot.
Yoongi: Exactly.
Jungkook: Funny how we brought a guest who didn't watch-
Yoongi: *laughs*
Jungkook: *in between chuckles* A lot of television as a kid.
🦊: But he wasn't ostracized, right?
Yoongi: *in between chuckles* No~ no... I did see it here and there, I just didn't dedicate my time to it since I was focused on music.
🦊: We love an ambitious person.
Jungkook: I didn't watch a lot of television either, but, Y/N introduced me to a lot of shows.
🦊: And he doesn't have time for a lot of them but-
Jungkook: The ones that I really like, I invest A LOT of time. I poop with my phone on my lap-
*Yoongi and 🦊 laugh*
Jungkook: *in between laughs* Everywhere! I try not to lose sleep, but when I'm invested. I am in. ves. ted!
🦊: I remember when I was obsessed with "House of Dragons" and I wanted to gatekeep it from Kookie because~
Jungkook: Wh-!
🦊: BECAUSE! It's such like... Okay, it's the prequel to "Game of Thrones" and the television series is over, but the BOOK series is not over! So I didn't want you to get invested so that afterward you get disappointed!
Jungkook: I didn't know that the "Game of Thrones" ending in the series is not canon!
Yoongi: It's not canon and in the book, Jon is still asleep or in a comma.
🦊: Iconic.
Yoongi: Y/N got me into it because they know that I would get invested but I don't make it my personality, like Jungkook and them.
🦊: Yoongi is an observer~
Jungkook: He is.
🦊: Slytherin energy~
Yoongi: *imitates a snake*
*Jungkook and 🦊 laugh*
🦊: First things first, my first exposure to East Asian shows was anime. And I don't remember which one came first because they all kind of merged together in my head, and it was "Inuyasha", "Naruto", "Pokémon", and "Yu-gi-oh!"
Yoongi: Interesting, because all those shows are from the 90's.
Jungkook: Yeah, when I was born those were already long running.
🦊: Well, I think it's because getting them to the western side, especially to the U.S. and Latin America, took some time.
Yoongi: In Korea, Pokémon first aired in 1999, and I was 6~
🦊: Oh! Puerto Rico, it was also 1999 too
Yoongi: You watched it from the womb?
🦊: *snickers* *in between laughs* Okay! Okay! I remember watching the first episode but I GENIUNELY don't remember how old I was.
Jungkook: I didn't watch ANY western shows as a kid other than Spongebob.
🦊: The icon himself!
Yoongi: Jungkook and Y/N watch Spongebob for fun.
Jungkook: But the first seasons, you know?
🦊: It's the most fun, you can tell when the creator walked away and when it because just not fun.
Jungkook: Mhm.
Yoongi: So, what's your culture shock?
🦊: Oh! Okay! Sorry! Okay, so, I did get exposed to shows, but it was interesting when I grew up I started watching dramas. And with dramas, there's like reality shows and stuff like that.
Yoongi: Right, for promo.
🦊: Exactly. Especially if you wanna be *in between chuckles* Delulu~ And you fall in love with the actor's looks~ And~ *laughs*
*Yoongi and Jungkook laugh*
🦊: Wanna get to know them?~
Yoongi: Right, right.
🦊: One of the things that I picked up on quickly was, the plots were all the same. Poor girl meets asshole rich dude. The rich dude has either a cousin, brother, friend, like someone close to him who is just the nicest person ever and THAT'S the love rival. She still chooses the rich asshole because he changed for her, but then something happens. The most common one is that the mom of the rich asshole finds out and pays her to leave, then one of them has an accident and somehow they make it work and boom. Happily ever after.
Yoongi: That's pretty much the jist of them.
🦊: But, my biggest culture shock is the variety shows.
Jungkook: Really?
🦊: Yeah, I just... Okay. It was- I had a weird feeling, like, I didn't know how to feel.
Jungkook: Why, what happened?
🦊: Okay, so, I remember the first one I watched was Weekly Idol, or Doni and Coni which... EW! They're... I remember when I watched you guys' episode, like the first time you were there and I loved it because I was a child. But watching it as an adult? I was like... Oh my god-
Jungkook: *chuckles* Your ARMY is showing.
🦊: I just! Okay... I just don't understand how someone can harass and be so mean to their guests and get away with it because it's "comedy"... Like... How is saying that Yoongi's song was "shit" comedy?
Jungkook: Ugh...
Yoongi: People have their own opinions, I guess.
🦊: Well, their opinion is WRONG. Like... Side eye. You could have just said it wasn't your taste without saying that it was bad and shit, you know?
Yoongi: I agree.
🦊: But, going back to it, the variety shows took me aback because everything is over-edited.
Jungkook: What do you mean?
🦊: Like... They put colorful subtitles on almost every sentence and these subtitles could be what the person is saying, what the person is doing, or what the editors think the person's inner thoughts are.
Jungkook: Ooooh! I hadn't noticed that. But, it's true~
🦊: And then replaying something shocking multiple times in *in between chuckles* multiple angles
Yoongi: *chuckles* 맞아~
🦊: Which, if you think about it, it's very stimulating and lowkey catering to the deaf community, since closed captions and interpreters are in scarcity on the Western side.
Jungkook: I hadn't really thought about it that way, but it's true~
🦊: That was my biggest culture shock. I got used to it after a while but, you know?
Yoongi: Were you shocked about the games?
🦊: *hums* Okay, so, I was but at the same time I wasn't? I don't know how to explain it.
Jungkook: Says as they're about to explain *chuckles*
🦊: *chuckles* So, I wasn't shocked because variety shows on the Western side also have games, but I was shocked at how queerbait-y the games are.
Yoongi: Like passing a paper member to member with our lips
🦊: It's so obvious fan service, but fan service can be very queerbait-y.
Yoongi: That's true.
🦊: Like, shipping friends with each other is... *groans* Not good~
Jungkook: Yeah.
🦊: But, yeah, I don't have any negative culture shock. Except for me being a Doni and Coni lowkey-highkey hater.
*all laugh*
Yoongi: Y/N introduced me to a lot of 90's shows. And, even though this wraps into the music category, I was shocked at how rock-inspired a lot of shows' intro was.
🦊: Which shows do you have in mind?
Yoongi: "Total Drama Island", "Teen Titans" from the 2000s. "American Dragon: Jake Long", and "Ben 10".
🦊: Okay but the other ones~
Yoongi: We saw "Wizards of Waverly Place", "Hannah Montana", "Sonny with a Chance" and a couple others with real people. And some of those also had inspiration in pop-rock.
🦊: Which is so 2000s if you think about it.
Yoongi: Was pop-rock popular in the 2000s?
🦊: In the western side, ESPECIALLY in the U.S. it was very popular.
Yoongi: I was just listening to hip-hop.
Jungkook: Yes he was~ Hip-hop classes were real.
Yoongi: You loved them
Jungkook: I did!~
🦊: As you can hear, Yoongi truly is an observer.
Jungkook: That was your culture shock?
Yoongi: Yeah!~ I was exposed to U.S. culture fairly young since I really like hip-hop culture.
🦊: What was your culture shock, Galletita?
Jungkook: Mine was... I guess the pipeline?
Yoongi: Pipeline?
🦊: Ooh~
Jungkook: So, Y/N basically explained that there's a pipeline of television, especially if you grew up in the 2000s.
🦊: Yep.
Jungkook: Basically, every kid in the U.S. watched either Disney channel with sitcoms or watched cartoons, but all of them came together to watch the hot new show-
JK and 🦊: "Total Drama Island"!
Jungkook: And basically "Total Drama Island" was-
Yoongi: It was a cartoon reality show.
Jungkook: Exactly. So it didn't take long for a lot of kids to get into real reality shows like "Next", "Cribs", and basically any reality show on MTV.
🦊: The pipeline gets split though. If you continued to watch cartoons, you get into anime. The pipeline goes EVEN DEEPER because if you watched anime, and listened to the openings, you probably got into Vocaloids, which are synthesized voca- I don't know why I'm telling you, yo-
Yoongi: I know about Vocaloids, yeah. I danced with one.
🦊: I. CO. NIC! I was genuinely SO jealous when I found out you were dancing with her. SeeU was SUCH an icon.
Yoongi: *laughs* Really?
🦊: I- Well, I fell in BOTH pipelines, but, I definitely fell more into the anime one.
Yoongi: Right.
🦊: But like, the vocaloid pipeline somehow brings you to the kpop pipeline. Which WEIRDLY the heavy metal rock or even rock music pipeline ALSO brings you to the kpop pipeline.
Yoongi: Interesting.
Jungkook: So, one day Y/N got nostalgic and we kind of watched a show that they were into as a child and I, unknowingly, also followed Y/N's pipeline.
Yoongi: Do we have a pipeline?
Jungkook: *long pause* I guess one of the biggest pipeline is that a lot of men in Korea want to be in either entertainment OR sports just to avoid military duty.
Yoongi: Which is not common, but happens a LOT!
🦊: Did you follow that pipeline?
Yoongi: No, hell no. I wanted to be a producer from a very young age not because I wanted to avoid military duty, but because I genuinely love music.
🦊: You did say it was your first love.
Yoongi: It was.
🦊: *sighs smiling*
Jungkook: If we had a camera recording us, I would look at it as if I was Jim from "The Office"
🦊: *snickers then laughs* Why?~
Jungkook: If you know, you know.
Yoongi: *long pause* I feel like I'm out of the loop for the first time.
🦊: You and I both.
Jungkook: You're ALWAYS out of the loop.
🦊: Okay! If I was out of the loop, how did I find out about the aliens BEFORE you?
Jungkook: Oh god~
Yoongi: What kind of aliens would you like? Ones that can transform like Ben 10? Aliens that look human but have superpowers? Or shapesh-
🦊: SHAPESHIFTING!
*Jungkook and Yoongi laughs*
🦊: You guys DON'T understand! If the aliens could shapeshift, I have a LIST!
Jungkook: *in between laughs* A LIST?!?!
🦊: *in between laughs* I have a list that the alien MUST follow!
Yoongi: Who's on top of the list?
🦊: Okay, right now, Toji Fushiguro~
Yoongi: Mmmm~
🦊: I have a lot of people, mainly anime men, because... I can bag a human.
Jungkook: You can't BAG YOUR CRUSH!
🦊: *gasps*
Yoongi: Jungkook-ah!~ *chuckles* Be nice to Y/N!
🦊: I can bag him, I'm just being respectful.
Yoongi: Exactly... Y/N just respects people's boundaries. Wait... So... Who's on the bottom?
🦊: Sukuna. Ryomen Sukuna. But, not because he's not hot, it's just tha- *muffled giggles*
Yoongi: Oh! They're covering their face!
Jungkook: *groans* Here we go
🦊: He has four arms~
Yoongi: *long pause* Right...
🦊: Two mouths~
Yoongi: *long pause* Okay...
🦊: *long pause* And one of those mouths can move anywhere.
Yoongi: Wait... *snickers* Are you...? *laughs* Are you sayin- I don't even wanna say it!
🦊: I'll say it for you!
Jungkook: *laughs* Stop!
🦊: Please let me say it!
Jungkook: Okay!~
🦊: I want an alien to shapeshift into Ryomen Sukuna because he has four arms, so, he can touch my chest with one hand, guide me with the other hand, stimulate my *clears throats* south with the other hand, and grab the back of my head and pull my hair with the other.
Jungkook: You're forgetting something.
🦊: Oh! Because one of the mouths can move, while he's kissing me, he can lick ANYWHERE he wants with the OTHER tongue~
Yoongi: 세상에!
Jungkook: Tell him about-
🦊: OH MY GOD! Okay... So, he- Okay, he... has two... *long pause*
Yoongi: *gasps* TWO?!
🦊: TWO!
Yoongi: Are they side by side? Up and down?
🦊: We actually DON'T have ANY confirmation. But my headcanon is that they're up and down.
Yoongi: How many balls does he have? Two or four? Are they ALSO up and down or side to side?
🦊: Hmm... I hadn't thought about it.
Yoongi: If it's four, there's more.. um... Milk *giggles*
*Jungkook and 🦊 laughs*
🦊: Yeah... And I wanna be filled by Sukuna.
Jungkook: WHY Sukuna, he's LEGIT EVIL!
🦊: Okay~ He's not EVIL!~ He's just... Umm... He's ju-
Jungkook: *deadpan* Y/N, his first lines were "Where are the people? The women? What a wonderful era to be in. Women and children are crawling everywhere like maggots. It's marvelous. It'll be a massacre."
🦊: I can fix him.
Yoongi: *laughs* Can you?!
🦊: I can!~
Jungkook: I mean-
🦊: Well, I-
Yoongi: I have no doubt about that.
🦊: *silent*
Jungkook: I'm looking at the invisible camera.
🦊: Guys?
Yoongi: Hmm?
🦊: Let's pause for a minute. I need to use the bathroom. *muffled movement sounds*
Jungkook: They have a small bladder when it comes to alcohol *chuckles*
🦊: *in a distant voice* You can edit it out, right Dae?
*muffled voice*
🦊: Purr, be right back.
[silence]
Jungkook: *whispering* Are you gonna do it today?
Yoongi: I don't see a point...
Jungkook: Why?~
Yoongi: Well... They JUST called me their "close friend" just now, and I'm about to leave for the mi-
Jungkook: *scoffs* Okay. YOU get to go home because you're going to go to a government office because of your shoulder
Yoongi: Yeah, but I can't do an-
Jungkook: Hyung... Why can't you trust me? I'm their best friend! I know better!
Yoongi: *sighs* *mumbles* You don't get it...
Jungkook: *sighs* *long pause* I'll leave the episode early, so you can close with them. They listen to the podcast, so, if you don't do anything, I'll post it unedited.
Yoongi: Why would y-
Jungkook: Because I know you, and I know them... You two need a little push and this is it.
Yoongi: *gulps* *sighs softly* fine...
🦊: *from a distance* I'm back!~ Sorry I took so long *giggles*
🦊: What else is there to talk about?
Jungkook: How was your first time at HYBE?
🦊: Oh! It was awesome! I was so happy I get to teach the trainees~ Though I wouldn't have minded if I got you!
Yoongi: It would have been fun for you to teach me Spanish...
🦊: Right?! But, I don't need a job to teach you! We're friends, right?
Yoongi: *hums agreeing*
Jungkook: Plus, he's just learning to impress you!
🦊: *scoffs then giggles* Stop! He already impresses me with his music. 28 is my ANTHEM!
Jungkook: You switch the lyrics to Spanish!
🦊: It's fun!~ *singing* Me 'stoy volviendo un adulto~ No me acueLdo 'e na'~ Mis sueños y ambiciones donde estan? Estan lejanas~ Ya no veo ni donde esta la meta!~
Yoongi: *chuckles* 재밌네~
🦊: 그죠~ Jungkook doesn't like it when I do it, but it's SO fun~
Jungkook: Guys... Do the closing without me, I have to go somewhere.
🦊: Wha~ *pouty* But your schedule is free! I got it right here...
Jungkook: It's something with Bam... I'm sorry! It's an emergency!
🦊: OH MY GOD! GO GO! Take care of my nephew! HURRY!
Jungkook: *muffles movements* *in a slightly distant voice* *chuckles* I will! *long pause* Hyung...
Yoongi: 어... 할게...
🦊: 뭐가 할거예요?
Jungkook: Don't worry about it.
🦊: Well! Kookie had an emergency! But Yoongi and I can finish up, right?
Yoongi: Yeah. Thank you for having me here today.
🦊: Thank you for being here!
Yoongi: *gulps* What if I came back to the podcast, would that be okay?
🦊: Oh! That'll be so dope! I'd love to hear your opinion on more things.
Yoongi: I'm an avid listener, so, it's gonna be weird listening to today's podcast once it goes live.
🦊: You'll love it. Daehyun does aMAZING editing.
Yoongi: *long pause* You never reveal your crush, do you?
🦊: *in between chuckles* No... I just- *long pause* *mumbles shyly* I know he listens, his friends have told me...
Yoongi: *hums*... *long pause* Do I know him?
🦊: Mmmm... Maybe!~ *chuckles*
Yoongi: *hums*
🦊: *in between chuckles* Why are you staring at me?
Yoongi: I just noticed how long your lashes are...
🦊: What?~ That was so sudden!
Yoongi: Well... *chuckles* I don't know, it's- I find it kinda cute..
🦊: W-WELP! That's all the time we have! Our producer is telling us to wrap it up!
Yoongi: Leave suggestions for Jungkook and Y/N in the comments and what you would like for them to talk about in the future.
🦊: Yep. And don't forget to stream the D-Day trilogy but Agust D!
Yoongi: Again, thank you so much for having me.
🦊: *mumbles shyly* You're welcome anytime...
Yoongi: 여러분 안녕히게세요
🦊: Hasta el proximo episodio!
Tumblr media
Daehyun gives you a thumbs up, indicating that the recording is done for Yoongi and you. You look at him and bow slightly as he smiles softly. You take off your headphones and look back at him smiling slightly then said
"You did great, our listeners are gonna like it!"
"You think so?" He responded. A bit shyly, but not enough to be shown.
You nod and then stand up, a bit too enthusiastically. Daehyun signals you to come to him to inspect the track and what needs to be edited out. You nod at him and then look back at Yoongi, asking him if he would like to be shown out. He shakes his head and then tells Daehyun that he would like to help edit the episode, something that surprised you.
"I thought you had a schedule to-"
"It's okay. I can stay for a little longer" He interrupted.
"I don't want you to get in trouble..."
"I won't. Daehyun can you play it back at exactly minute 49?"
You furrow your eyebrows and look at his empty whiskey glass, thinking to yourself how he couldn't be drunk, since nobody got refills, as per Daehyun's request. Then you put on your headphones to listen back to the audio, pushing the microphone slightly away and taking off your notebook to take notes. You hear yourself stumbling away from the microphone and telling Yoongi and Jungkook that you would be right back. There's a long pause, and you weren't there, but you could feel the air thickening, just as it is at the moment you and Yoongi are playing back the audio. You gulp writing down that this part should definitely be taken away. Then, you hear it. Yoongi and Jungkook talking about how he should do something today, by the sounds of it, a confession. A love confession. You pause your writing, keeping your face as neutral as possible. Looking at the notebook, rather than the eyes that are definitely looking for your reaction. You feel your eyes begin to twitch as if they're about to sprout water, your nose begin to flare, and your cheeks begin to redden as you puzzle that they're talking about you.
Jungkook knew about your crush on Yoongi. He also knew that you didn't want to do anything because you thought it was only a simple crush, but that came to a crash when he called you and told you when he was leaving for the military. You faked your nonchalantness and told him that you would miss him as much as you missed Hobi, but that was the day that the snow melted and spring came when it came to your feelings. You cried to Jungkook that day, and coming into the studio he rented to record was hard. Especially because you had to fake being enthusiastic and happy. In the end, you couldn't hold it in. You were gonna miss Jungkook, he was your best friend. But missing Yoongi was gonna tear your heart apart. When recording that episode ended, Jungkook said to not give up hope and that something for sure was gonna happen. Something happy.
You looked at Daehyun nonchalantly and told him to keep it as it is without any editing, the excuse being that the listeners would like the authenticity. Then, you quickly took off your headphones and gathered your things. Fearing that you wouldn't make it to the door, you rushed your steps. It's not you... You don't wanna get your hopes up. You know he wouldn't like you in a romantic sense. You two are vastly different, another reason why you never spoke your feelings to him. You were bubbly, outgoing, a bit extroverted, loud, and talked with anybody and anything. Complete opposite of him. When you stepped out the door, you let out a breath you didn't know you were holding and let your tears fall. Silently crying.
"Y/N? You okay?" You heard Jungkook's voice, but that was quickly dismissed as a hand grabbed yours.
You looked up and saw Yoongi, motioning you to follow him. You nodded and followed him to an empty studio.
"You don't like me?" He asked, a bit unsure and insecure.
You shook your head, disagreeing with him, something he understood. You felt tears staining your cheeks, your breath shorten, and your cheeks reddened as you said
"I like you..." In a shaky voice. "I like you a lot. I just didn't think that you'd like me. I'm not tall, I'm loud, I'm- I don't have any qualities that you'd like..."
His face softened as he got closer. He cupped your cheeks and wiped your tears with his thumbs. You continued by saying
"I stumble in my Korean. I'm not even Korean! Why would you like me?"
"Why wouldn't I?" He responded in a soft, slightly hushed voice, taking you by surprise.
"I like that you're extroverted." He continued "If we eat out, I know I can count on you helping me with my social anxiety. So what if you're not tall? I think you'd fit nicely in my arms."
He pulled you into a hug, smiling softly. He then nuzzled his face in the crook of your neck and slowly took in your scent. He leaned back a little.
"I was right." He said smiling gently. "You have other qualities that I like... Like... How excited you get talking about anime and video games is so beautiful to me. Your eyes sparkle, your tone of voice gets higher, your body language gets more expressive, you use your hands more."
He gently pushed a strand of hair away and looked into your eyes while saying "So what if you stumble in your Korean? At least you know Korean! Which is more than I can say when it comes to Spanish."
You chuckled, smiling while wiping your tears.
"And so what if you're not Korean?... I fell in love with YOU, not your nationality or ethnicity"
You gasped softly and looked into his eyes whispering "Love?" He chuckled and nodded then sighed.
"I know it's a big word, but it's how I feel... And I don't wanna leave for the military without telling you how I feel."
You cupped his cheek and studied his face. He has gotten chubbier in the cheeks, his skin paler than usual, and his hair was shorter, probably to prepare it to get cut. You got on your tippy toes slightly and pecked his lips first to see if it was okay. This took him by surprise but it didn't last long for him to hug your waist and kiss you back.
You pulled away and smiled then hugged him. His arms hugged you back as you leaned your head on his right shoulder, sniffling slightly and apologizing for crying, something he dismissed quickly. Your moment was quickly ruined when you and Yoongi almost fell from Jungkook jump-hugging you.
"AY! YA! Don't be stupid!" You said as you pushed Jungkook away. Yoongi already taking the liberty of letting go of you so that you and Jungkook could push each other around.
"You got your love confession! Thanks to ME~ The BEST wingman EVER!" Jungkook exclaimed as he wrapped his tattooed arm around your shoulder and neck. You groaned playfully and pushed him off you, but that didn't stop him from doing it again.
"Say I'm the best, and I'll let you go~" Jungkook said smiling from ear to ear.
"You're the WORST! Estupido, how could you force a confession out of Yoongles!~"
"Hey! He wasn't planning on doing it, and you were all mopy. I had to do something!"
You sighed and hugged him, burying your face in his chest, and said in a mumbled voice
"You're the best..." which came out in a slightly muffled sound.
"AH! Did you hear that, hyung?! THE. BEST! I gotta tell Jimin!" Jungkook said as he pushed you off of him and took off his phone.
You and Yoongi looked at each other and smiled. Promising to talk to each other more in his apartment.

Everybody Wants You | 5
Everybody Wants You Masterlist
18+ MINORS DO NOT INTERACT
Tumblr media
Jake couldn’t believe what he was seeing. Across the bar sat Locklyn, upright on a piano while Bradley serenaded her and the rest of the bar. And she smiled at HIM not Jake. He growled as Javy brought over another drink.
“You don’t have to do this, you know.” Javy says, setting the drink in front of his best friend.
“Do what?”
“Watch this. Man, let's just go to another bar.” Javy suggests but Jake shakes his head, “No. I’m not letting her out of my sight.” His fingers trace the rim of the glass. The last time Jake had seen Locklyn smile like that was at graduation, right after he proposed. But even before then he hadn’t known how much it would hurt him.
“You’re a jerk sometimes man. You never saw how great she is.” Javy’s words make Jake snort because of course he did. He has always watched her from afar because he knew just how beautiful she is, and how kind she was. He saw how she went out of her way to make sure the fridge in the baseball house was stocked and they had dinner after practices but him noticing and actually showing he noticed were two different things. He saw that now because Jake hasn’t seen Locklyn look at him the way she looks at Bradley in months.
So yeah, he sees how amazing she is, he just doesn’t see it when she smiles like that with someone else.
Locklyn’s smiles with Bradley? Well if that didn't kill him—
Her  gaze catches Jake for a second before her eyes widen and turn back to Bradley at the piano. Before Jake can think anything of it, there is a hand on his shoulder.
“Long time no see, Seresin.” Jake can feel the blood drain from his face and it’s all he can do not to flinch.  It takes everything in him not to scream when he realizes who is next to him. “How are you? How is your life?” She asks and Jake hates it. He hates that she’s standing so close, he hates that she’s smiling at him. But worst of all, she’s talking like they’re old friends. “We haven’t talked in weeks, you should call me more often, Jake. We could catch up…”
“Walk away, Harlow.”
“It’s Willow, actually but I’ll chalk that up to the drinks you’ve had.” She giggles, settling herself into his lap. He tries his best not to react and keep glaring across to where Locklyn is laughing with Bradley. “What happened to our little talk about being friends Jake?”
“I changed my mind.” Jake says, hoping he can get Willow to walk away. He hopes Y/n doesn’t notice, wishing he could go home. “This isn’t exactly a friendly conversation, Willow.” Jake can barely hear himself over his own heartbeat. He wants her off of him.
But Willow isn’t listening because she leans in and whispers, “Let's go back to my dorm and I can do that thing you like with my tongue.”
“I said—”
She interrupts him by kissing him, her hands reaching around his neck and pulling him closer. He pushes her off, getting up abruptly. He doesn’t look at her. Doesn’t want to see the disappointment etched into her almost pretty features. She stands up too, following after him as he heads for the door. When he gets outside she pulls on his arm. “Where are you going? Come back, Jake. Please.” She begs and he thinks he hears a sob, and he feels sick. This isn’t Locklyn.
“Don’t touch me." He snaps, shoving her away.
She falls against the wall behind them. He keeps walking, pushing past everyone and trying to focus on where he's going, and why he needs to be anywhere other than in here.
There's an odd buzzing in his ears and he feels like he might throw up. He doesn't stop until he reaches the parking lot. He sits down on the curb, leaning against the car. He closes his eyes and tries to breathe. He can still smell Willow on him. He can still taste her lips. He can still feel her hands on his shoulders. He can still feel her body pressed up against him. He can't stop thinking about it.
He tries to remember the last time he felt good, happy. He closes his eyes and lets the scene paint in his mind.
Tumblr media
It was the middle of summer in Austin, Texas, Jake and Y/n’s hometown.  They’d been engaged for about three years at this point.
They were lying in his bed long after their childhood friend’s had left his house and Jake had his arm wrapped around her waist, watching her read as he marveled at her beauty. Her hair was spread out across the pillow, darkening the sheets and she looked like an angel to him. She let her book fall onto her chest and turned to face him. “What are you doing?”
“Just looking at you.” He answered honestly.
Her eyes widened a bit, but it wasn’t enough to hide the blush that spread across her cheeks. She leaned up on her elbow, giving him a kiss. “Are you done?”
“I don’t wanna move.” He grumbled, pressing their foreheads together.
She laughed, running her hand through his hair gently. “I like looking at you too.”
They stayed like that for a few minutes before Lcoklyn pulled him up and let his eyes follow her hands as she stripped from her dress before she got under the covers and beckoned for him to join her.
He had to fight back the overwhelming desire to kiss her. He wanted to be inside her. He wanted to feel her beneath him, feel her skin warm under his fingertips as he traced every inch of her body. Instead, he took off his clothes, sliding under the blankets beside her and wrapping his arms around her tightly.
“It’s cold in here.” She commented as she ran her thumb along his jawline, sending shivers down his spine.
He hummed a soft agreement, shifting a little and wrapping his legs around hers. “I’ll warm you up.” He murmured against her neck.
“Oh, you will?” She asked breathlessly and Jake smiled against her skin, knowing she was already wet and waiting for him.
“Of course.” Jake moved so he could place kisses up her jawline. He made his way to her ear, biting softly. “I mean, I have a feeling that I’ll find some way.” He whispered, his lips moving back to her neck.
She moaned softly, arching her back and tightening her hold on him. Jake grinned against her pulse point, taking advantage of his proximity to reach her folds. He sucked harder, working his fingers between her folds and making her hips buck up in pleasure. “Jakey…” She breathed out his name in a shaky voice.
Jake smirked into the skin of her neck and continued his ministrations, slowly building to a fast pace. He heard her gasp as he hit just the right spot. “Come for me sweetheart.” He whispered, moving his head to kiss her shoulder.
“I’m gonna… I’m gonna come, Jake.” She panted, gripping the sheets of the bed. Jake could feel the heat rising in his gut and couldn’t help the smile that came to his face. He picked up the pace and reached a spot deep inside her that caused her to bite down on his shoulder, letting out a loud, muffled moan of his name.
“You gotta keep quiet sweets, don’t need Ma coming upstairs.” Jake murmured into her shoulder, slowing his motions, just enough to bring out the reaction he knew he wanted.
“I—I can try.” She muttered.
When he finally felt it, her walls clenching around his fingers, she gave a loud, long moan. He groaned as he felt her juices flow around his hand.  “Good girl.” He praised. He pulled away and watched her closely, seeing her breathing heavy and her pupils blown wide. The sight made his stomach clench. "You're so beautiful." He said breathlessly.
"Shut up." y/n blushed deeply.
Jake chuckled and shook his head. “Never gonna happen, I thought I told you that when we first started dating.” He teased and Locklyn rolled her eyes.
He kissed her again, slower this time and holding her closer.
“Jakey—“ she whined, pulling him closer to her.
“Yes?”
“If you don’t fuck me in the next 5 seconds, I’m going home.”  Y/n threatened and Jake smirked.
“Yes ma’am.” He nodded as she pushed her to lay on her back, climbing on top of her.  He didn’t hesitate before kissing her hungrily. She responded immediately, wrapping her arms around his neck and tangling her fingers in his hair. It took less than two seconds for his cock to harden even further, only breaking the kiss to slide inside her, moaning loudly as she clenched around him.
“Shhh Jakey,”Locklyn’s giggles turn into a moan as he pulls out and immediately pushes back in. He thrust into her repeatedly, causing her to whimper in satisfaction.
“Fucking hell, Locks,” Jake gasped as he pulled out yet again, hitting that sweet spot he knows is there. She gripped his shoulders tightly.
“I love you.” She moaned in his mouth, causing him to groan again.
"Fuck, I'm gonna—I'm gon'—" His words were swallowed up as Locklyn pulled him down into a kiss again, muffling her moans as she came again.  She clutched onto him, digging her nails into his skin as he spilled himself into her.  They collapsed against each other on the mattress, panting heavily as they caught their breaths. Jake rested his forehead against her collarbone, inhaling deeply and closing his eyes as he tried to get himself to calm down.
Y/n stroked his hair tenderly, her fingers moving over the stubble on his cheeks. “That was amazing.”
Jake sighed contentedly, nuzzling her neck slightly. “Yeah?”
“Mhmm.” She hummed in reply. “But you know what I think we should do next?”
He raised his head and frowned playfully. “And that would be?”
“Go get some ice cream.” She suggested, a  grin plastered across her face.
“Sounds like a plan.” Jake smiles, kissing her sweetly. “Lets get you cleaned up first.”
Tumblr media
Jake smiled softly at the memory. That was only 2 months ago. 2 months before their agreement started again.
He thought Locklyn would be the first to break after the break up but the longer he sat there, the more he wished he would’ve listened to her about their agreement.
Maybe it was time to focus on them, but was he too late?

PJOTV Ep 4 + 5 (spoilers)
My brain is, and has been, rotted entirely! I feel like the TV show is such a treat because the new content adds layers to the story SO MUCH like the plot and character dynamics it makes me want to scream. Yes the differences are absolutely notable but the bottom line is that our main trio would find each other in any universe or storyline and would choose each other every time
-The opening scene of episode 4 broke me a bit: the lore that Percy actually did not take naturally to being in the water, he was actually afraid to be swimming! I feel like before we definitely characterized him as someone who felt at home in the water since he came out the womb but damn look how far he comes. How jarring it must be to later find out you're actually the son of the sea god :o
-Percy continually being angry about the system of the gods (not) interacting with their children, being so shocked that a parent wouldn't help or talk to their child. He's so sweet and I feel like his rage grows the more he gets to know Annabeth because he sees how amazing and loyal and cunning she is and wonders how her mother could ever ignore or abandon her
-Annabeth just in general, her badassery is so fucking perfect for this character, the way she draws her knife, her being so fucking in tune with Percy already....the way she knows exactly what Percy is going to do before he does it ((and the way he listens to her unconditionally i.e. cutting off Medusa's invisible head in episode 3 but I digress)), knowing he was alive and waiting for them somewhere at the beginning of episode 5. she is a LEGEND and she is LOCKED TF IN
-the hug <3 i won't make it weird if you won't <3 <3 we're like friends now <3<3<3 do u understand how i hurt
-trio walking down the side of the road like bums -_- i died lmfao. also them hiding when approached by some dude and just being like <3 we good ty tho!!
-Percy, again still acclimating to this fucking weird ass world where gods are real and can kill u easily, is shook when ares threatens to kill them. luckily, as a change of pace, grover is cool as a dang cucumber and saves the day af. this is what i mean like absolutely the characters are so different like yes grover has been nervous a lot but he also can turn it tf on and smooth talk when he needs to
-Annabeth has never seen a movie. Percy immediately insists that they watch one together. Look me in the fucking eyes and tell me that's not a date? Hello?
-The entirety of the tunnel scene/chair scene. Percy being the one to figure out the story illustrated Hephaestus' life. Percy ALREADY working to save Annabeth first and foremost! Percy continually sacrificing himself for her! Believing deep down she is capable of great, impossible things and being willing to set aside his life for her without question. Telling her she is better. "You just are. And you know it." Giving her Riptide, no second thoughts, no backing down.
-ANNABETH CHASE ALREADY ASSUMING PERCY'S PROMISE WOULD BE ABOUT HIS MOTHER. HIM BEING ASSURED SHE WILL SAVE HIS MOTHER, NO HESITATION. HIM ASKING HER TO COME BACK FOR HIM. HER BEING SURPRISED THAT HE THOUGHT HE HAD TO ASK. (THE ENEMY PHASE WAS SO SHORT LIVED. THEY HAVE BARELY GOTTEN IN THE BACK OF A TRUCK TRANSPORTING LIVE ANIMALS TOGETHER. WHO KNOWS WHAT THEY WOULD TALK ABOUT IN THERE NOW. I'M fine don't worry about me).
-On that note, the ending. Percy is like a loose cannon full of a deep rage and a lot (A LOT) of unrealized power; his problem is that he is not locked TF in like Annabeth (as of right now) and the ending really made me excited because it feels like he is finally catching on to what a big deal he actually is. All this anger he has inside him, all this rage at what he has lost and the suffering he has seen, .... i'm honestly beside myself at what is to come because this is already SO JUICY and I feel like we've barely started!
-side notes: the score is so amazing, I'm really enjoying it and I understand all the videos of the actors promoting the soundtrack!!! also my sister has never read the books but she loves the movies and we watch it together; she is very very excited for the casino scene so there is definitely hope for her in the near future. ((my nico loving ass will also be holding binoculars and twitching))
so yes a lot was changed but i am really liking the new content a lot because it just feels like added lore and, again, these guys can best the odds in any universe and help each other in every timeline. the most important plot points are there and i feel like they have already set up a lot of info for later on down the line. I do wish there was a bit more banter/conversation (because Percy is actually so quirky and I feel like this could be explored more) but the time we do have is amazing and feels super fresh! even when i've read the books to pieces! and again the convos they're having right now are setting shit up for later and maybe then they can play and have fun wit it. as always, i will be loyally sat, lurking, reblogging. kiss
