#maybe that's what happens when the doubles get too close to eachother?
Note
Hallo! Could I possibly request a Tim Drake x M!Reader?
Seeing your autistic reader mirroring the batboys. I think it would be funny seeing the other Batboys (+ Batman maybe), react to reader and Tim mirroring eachother.
Maybe it doesn't start right away, but builds up steam over time. It starting with them rocking back in forth in sync while bouncing off info from an going case, to them picking up mannerisms.
Then maybe continued with their wardrobes becoming so mixed up, they just have double the clothes.
______
Honsetly, the thought of Damien being creeped out by Tim and Reader lifting their cups of coffee or energy drinks up in unison, makes me laugh harder than it should.
That or Bruce seeing Reader and Tim mirroring eachothers fighting style for the frist time and just like, 'what the fuck???'. Because, he probably tested Damien for autism snice they are blood, it's generic. Maybe, Dick for ADHD.
Then, it just slipped his mind to get Tim tested or even see the signs of autism in Tim. Because Bruce is autistic, so would just look at Tim and think, 'Yup, that's normal development .'

Funny thing is I hc that pretty much the entire batfam is on the autism spectrum in some way or another. Bruce is autistic , Dick has ADHD or ADD, Jason has ASD or ODD, Tim is autistic, Damian is autistic and mild OCD.
Is this me projecting onto my comfort characters? Yes, yes it is. But come on, look at the batfam and tell me there isn’t at least a little tism in all of them.
You are also very right in Bruce just not noticing the signs in most of his kids since he’s autistic himself and that behavior is the norm for him. Alfred was most likely the one who had Bruce tested when he was younger, so it would have to be Alfred who steps in and advises them to get checked out, just in case.
Tim just happens to slip under the radar, maybe because of the stress at the time he joined the family, or they were all just too busy at the time, so it just slipped their minds.
Tim is also very good as masking, having grown up with his parents, acting “strange” wasn’t allowed, so he’s mastered the skill of hiding his less approved quirks. So, you’ll never see him stimming or rocking in public, or around people for that matter.
It was only after you two started dating and became very close that he started to let it slip, unconsciously of course. But it’s because he doesn’t feel the need to hide around you, and you are one of his comfort people.
The family doesn’t fully notice in the beginning as Tim grows more comfortable not masking and starts mirroring you. Infodumping is a common occurrence in the family, especially with the type of work they do, so when Tim is talking to you about cameras or his favorite band in extreme detail, They just think it’s a normal happening.
Damian is the first to notice, and he would think you two are trying to punk him somehow. When you and Tim always do things in tandem, picking up your drinks at the same time, always pushing your chairs back and getting up together, using the same type of glass or plates, etc.
He wouldn’t confront either of you obviously, since he doesn’t want to play into your hands. But then your mirroring becomes even more obvious. Like mirroring stims, meaning Tim starts stimming the same way you do.
Do you flap your hands? Tim now does too. Verbal stims? Catch Tim making the same noises over comms during patrol. You both also come to enjoy the same textures if you don’t already, because those textures remind you of each other.
It finally clicks for Bruce when he sees Tim and you wearing each other’s clothes and using stim toys, whilst rocking back and forth on the couch, excited to see your comfort movie. It makes Bruce want to facepalm because it’s been so obvious this entire time.
When he asks Alfred about it, the Brit just gives him a bland look whilst saying something along the lines of “Master Bruce, I thought it was obvious from the start”, because Bruce has a habit picking up kids with the tism.
After that Tim finally gets tested and gets his diagnosis. Not that it changes anything other than what’s on paper. But it does help Tim feel better, as in the past he probably struggled with feeling wrong or like he didn’t fit in.
When Damian also realizes you two weren’t trying to dupe him, he settles with his arms crossed and huffs, saying that of course that was the reason since you two couldn’t get the upper hand on him anyways.
The entire fam shares fidget toys or different coping things. The house is stocked with everyone’s comfort food, clothes, media, etc. The walls are made so sound doesn’t pass through them, the fridge and electronics are also upgraded so they don’t make those buzzing sounds. It’s like autism heaven.
You also are included since your dating Tim, and you two are very happy together. The family is also thankful in you helping Tim come out of his shell, even though neither of you realized you were doing it.

Abandonment Issues / Billy + Stu
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Billy
🥧 Because you're so scared that people will leave you, you are also scared to get close to anyone
🔪 So despite Billy's best efforts to get close to you, you're shut off and you just won't let him in
🥧 Its fine when you're just friends, you're so close and you trust him, and he feels like you're all his... But then when feelings get involved... The moment you realise you maybe like him as more than just a friend...
🔪 Thats when your doubts and paranoid thoughts tend to kick in, thats when you shut down.
🥧 So over night you seem to change, you start pushing him away, making up excuses not to spend so much time with him...
🔪 If Billy wasn't so persistent that would have been the end of things, but Billy has his own issues... He's possesive, terrified of being left, of losing you... So he will not let that happen
🥧 He'd double down and root twice as hard for you, he'd make up more reasons to be around you, he'd keep saying things like "you know you can talk to me about anything yeah..."
🔪 And then when he finally snaps, he does it quiet and calm... Climbs in through your bedroom window one evening all, "forgive me for the intrusion y/n but I couldn't sleep... See i was lying there awake thinking about you..." "Smooth Billy..." he ignores your sarcasm and just carries on, "I was trying to work out whats wrong with you...cause somethings chanhed recently and i don't understand why... We went from being best friends you know... We were building to something real good, all the trailers were released and people you know, they couldn't wait to see the full feature but then... well... The movie never came out, all those trailers got pulled from the cinemas, the production company slashed the budget and well... It feels like you don't wanna know me anymore..."
🥧 You want to be cold with him, you try to be cold with him... "you never stop to think maybe i don't..." he'd get mad if it wasn't such a terrible lie, instead he just looks at you with those sad puppy eyes and reaches out to you.
🔪 "No, no it isn't that... Cause you might not wanna know me anymore doll but i still know you... Its something else..."
🥧 And you can't ignore those puppy eyes. You can't keep lying when you can see the hurt on his face so you bite the bullet and admit how you really feel...
🔪"I'm sorry Billy I'm just... Whenever i get too close to someone i ruin them... Everything gets all fucked up and they leave or it all just..."
🥧 He'd try to cut you off when you get upset, he hates seeing you cry and usually he'd be plotting to kill whoever was responsible for those tears, but today its just you and him
🔪 So he catches your chin between his thumb and finger and tilts your face up to look at his.. "hey, hey... Don't cry y/n..."
🥧 Thing is he knows exactly how you feel, he too is terrified of being left alone by those he cares about most in the world. Right then he wants nothing more than to hold you tight but he knows he needs to talk to you... Tell you how things are, how they are going to be
🔪 Because he isn't ever going to let you go, not now he knows you definitely feel the same... And lets face it, even if he hadn't been sure you did... He wouldn't have let you go.
🥧 "I understand y/n, i know you're scared, i get scared sometimes too yeah? But you don't need to be scared with me... This.." he'd point between you and him, "nothings gonna ruin this, and i will never leave you, i promise okay, youre safe with me..."
🔪 The relationship would be intense, you'd stick to one another like glue. You'd rarely be apart, he'd always have a hand on you and if you had a class separate to him or you did have to be away from eachother, he'd make sure you were wearing his sweater or shirt so that you wouldn't really be without him and other people would know you were his.
🥧 It would be a ride or die, you and him against the world kind of love and he'd remind you of that all the time. "Nobody understands me like you do, nobody understands you like i do, its just you and me babe, youre all that matters to me in this world..."
🔪 He would be very protective of you.. He'd want to know why you have these issues, what happened to you, who didn't love you enough? He'd be bitter about it when he found out, he'd never forgive those people who had made you feel like you're easy to abandon.
🥧He'd definitely kill someone to prove his dedication to you... If he had to... So don't make him prove it...
Stu
🍒 Isn't every going to give you the chance to doubt his feelings for you... He never leaves you alone because he's one clingy clingy motherfucker. He doesn't have abandonment issues of his own, more that he has possession issues... Once youre his youre his and he doesnt want to let go of you for even a second.
🔪 If you're hanging out with your friends outside school he's got his arms around you or youre sitting in his lap... If you're walking together he's picking you up, slinging you over his shoulder, spinning you around whatever... The boys just always physically present
🍒 He doesn't always think about what he says though and so often his lack of tact can cause you upset... When he makes flirtasious jokes about other girls, when he makes stupid comments about the cheer squad... Thats all they are to him, just jokes... And he makes them because the idea of him leaving you for anyone is so unbelievable and stupid to him that he doesn't think anyone could ever believe him for a second...
🔪 But the comments play on your mind and one day he makes the joke and you don't laugh, you shrug him off and cut class to go home early... He doesn't realise what he's done but Billy and Randy are just "Its called sensitivity man, try using your brain every once in awhile..." "yeah man girls don't really like it when you joke about cheating on them..." "Moron..." "what she knows I'm joking?" "yeah she seemed real entertained fuckrag..."
🍒 So he rolls his eyes, dramatically sighing before following after you, shouting for you to slow down, you know digging himself a hole in his endearing way.
🔪 When he gets to you he wraps his arms around you tight and rests his chin on your shoulder, hugging you from behind so that you can't escape...
🍒 At first he's still joking with you, layering it on thick, begging for your fogriveness but you can tell its still all a joke to him... But it isn't a joke to you
🔪 He realises he's gone too far when you start crying and his whole demeanour changes, he would immediately stop laughing, spin you round in his arms and hold your face in his hands looking at you with all the seriousness in the world (or as much as someone like stu can muster at any given moment)
🍒 "Hey baby don't cry i was just joking around with you baby girl i was just joking you know i love you..." he'd carry on talking like that, drying your eyes and kissing your face wherever he could until you stopped crying.
🔪 You sniffling "you shouldn't fuckin joke about that shit..." "well why not baby, you know I'd never give you up for anyone or anything you're mine forever..." when you just look at him he realises... You don't know that, you don't know just how much you mean to him... So he says it again.
🍒 "baby girl you are mine forever." he'd hold you tight against his chest cradling your head with his hand, pressing you to him and kissing your forehead. He'd just keep saying it until you understood.
🔪 And from then on he doesn't make as many of those dumb jokes. Instead he acts extra possesive over you, wanting to spend every moment with you reminding you that you're his. Forever.
🍒 It would be sinister if he wasn't such a goof...
🔪 He gives you his necklace to wear and tells you never to take it off, it will remind you that you're his and it'll show everyone else that too.
🍒 Stu is always joking that he'll kill anyone who tries to come between you... But they're just jokes. Right.

✩ 1.5k celebration ✩
thank you guys so so sooo much for 1.5k
for the next couple days, i'll be taking requests on any character i write for
ive collected prompts from different prompt lists, they're just under the line
send a request with one of the following prompts and the character and i'll write a little blurb!
ly <33
prompt list
✩ you're blushing prompts by @thepromptswhisperer
“You’re blushing.” “Yeah, so? Never seen anyone fall for your charm before?”
“Are you okay? You look a little…” “I’m fine!”
“Are you actually blushing?” “No! Shut up.”
A smiles fondly when B starts to blush and draws them closer, allowing them to hide in their embrace.
“This never happened, do you understand?! If I find out you mentioned this to anyone, I’ll…”
A touches their own heated cheeks (, maybe to confirm that they really are blushing. Not that they didn’t already know.)
“I’m not blushing. It’s from the cold.” “Yeah. Sure.”
✩ the sweet early morning things by @novelbear
sleepy, playful smiles as they both take in eachothers messy morning appearance
"you look your cutest like this." "but i just woke up." "i know what i said."
snuggling into the others neck to shield their eyes from the sunlight
peppering small kisses all over their face to wake them
"your morning voice is so hot." [laughs] "what?"
waking up a little earlier than usual, meaning they get the luxury of snuggling further into their blankets and lover to go back to sleep.
accidentally falling back asleep, too entangled and comfortable in one another's warmth.
✩ make 'em swoon by @creativepromptsforwriting
a subtle wink
holding them close by their hips
pulling them on their lap
smirking in a way that suggests more
hugging them from behind
a kiss pressed to the neck
lips brushing against their ear
whispering to them like they're alone in the world
✩ valentine's prompts by @scealaiscoite
“you really planned this?! remind me how you’re single, again?”
“has it occurred to you that we’ve spent more valentine’s days with each other than with people we’ve actually been dating?”
“wow, someone’s looking good. hot date, or what?”
“ i wanted to treat you how i should’ve before.”
“you really thought i wouldn’t remember what you like? please, give me a little credit.”
“i understand if you don’t want to, but i wanted to tell you that i planned a few things for us today.”
“i couldn’t think of a better night to show everyone how in love with you i am.”
✩ in between by @keyotosprompts
"was that a good conversation?" "oh... yeah. it was great" "great." [and there's this thick, awkward silence afterwards].
person a and person b are dating, and person a just finished a conversation with someone person b was jealous of. when they get home, person b is a bit more clingier and so much more touchy. cue a's teasing and b hiding their face in the crook of a's neck.
^ "so... are you finally gonna admit you were jealous?" "uh, no, because i wasn't" (b says as they press kisses to a's neck and hold a close to their body).
"and i love you. i love it when you do the double-tuck thing with your hair when you're nervous, does [person c] notice that? do they know that when you shove your hands in your pockets, you're really just doing it so you can fidget without anyone knowing? or, what about the way you look at people–" and person a is in total shock the whole time.
person b is sulking after seeing person a reunite with someone they've been close to since forever (think family friend...yikes). person a thinks it's adorable and goes to "comfort" b by peppering their face with kisses and giving them words of affirmation.
✩ phrases/actions that have my legs divorcing by @loveisanimaginarydagger3000
Watching in awe as your partner slides their finger into their mouth with your cum on it. 
“Yeah?” They say with a hint of teasing to their tone, “And what if I do this?” They say, changing their rhythm slightly and hitting your weak spot.
Toying with a piece of clothing, whether that be the collar of your shirt, slowly undoing your belt, sliding a finger under the waistband of your underwear before letting it snap back against your skin.(The last one ahhhh) 
“If you want something, you have to use your words.”  
“Remember who’s in charge here baby, I’d choose your next words carefully.” 
“I’m sorry, what was that? I couldn’t hear you over all the noise you were making.” (Someone write an enemies with benefits to this I beg) 
✩ fluff prompt list by @acourtofswiftiesandshadowdaddies

Hey anon, I have screen-shotted your ask because I am going to try stay out of tag/term searches here, which in an of itself probably answers your question XD
So! Thoughts as they occur to me!
I did give the whole first season a watch. Partly out of giving it a chance, partly out of morbid curiosity, like when you can't look away from something awful happening in front of you even when you really want to close your eyes.
What I think is interesting actually, is that my main issues with the show have somewhat changed since I initially watched it. While watching it my only thoughts were "wrong, wrong, that never happened, wrong, wrong, wrong, look how they massacred my boy (gn), wrong!" And while those thoughts themselves haven't changed my main issues have changed to focus more on how it's such a badly structured story (the timelines feel both stretched and compressed in a way that doesn't add anything to the stories being told) and how I don't think it knows yet what it wants to be (it's Tolkien, but it's its own thing, but it's a 'prequel' in the very modern franchise sense of the word to the PJ films, but it's also not those films).
For the structure, I personally wouldn't have put two major stories into one show. I don't think there's the time for that. Both the Akallabêth and the creation of the rings exist as very sketchy narratives that cover extremely long timeframes. Original content was always going to be needed to fill the gaps. But by putting both tales into the one show, I feel they've doubled the amount of gap filling needed while halving the amount of screentime they have for it because there's now twice the amount of canon to cover (tbf, they don't seem to want canon so maybe that's not an issue for them...). To force them to run simultanously and then add original content that isn't just filling the gaps but appears to be completely original, you end up with a story that is both too empty and too full. Nothing is getting the time it deserves. Big moments feel undeserved or rushed. It takes the wind out of its own sails. (and that's without mentioning that these stories running alongside eachother just throws timelines and motivations out of whack, but I refuse to get us all bogged down in the minutiae of my grumblings!)
It's a pity, the story of the fall of Númenor and the creation of the rings have such good parallels, but that would require them to focus on things like religion and politics etc and they seem to be more interested in mystery boxes, so... oh well?
In regards the show's identity crisis, to be fair to them, that's really not that unusual in first seasons. They're not special XD Let's face it, how often have we all been recommended something that came with the caveat 'you need to get through the first few episodes/first season before it gets good and finds its feet'? Especially fantasy and sci-fi that has to establish facts about the world as well as characters in a way a drama set in the real world doesn't. I wouldn't be shocked to learn that the show hits its stride a bit better in later seasons.
However, my current biggest gripe with the show is what I'm seeing in the writers' attitude to storytelling. I can't stand it. The actor for a certain someone whose name begins with H didn't know who his character really was until after shooting the first few episodes. There's the back and forth of is it H or the guy who fell from the sky who'll turn out to be the villain. Sky man even gets some stalkers whose only purpose was to add confusion to this situation and then be immediately killed, no further context. One of the writers (I don't remember who) when asked about deviations from canon said something to the effect of 'we don't want book fans to be episodes ahead'. It's the modern Marvel school of story-telling. It's mystery boxes and twists and fears of spoilers and people knowing what's coming next. That's not how you tell a story. You need more substance than that. Big moments are only interesting if you've earned them with a well crafted lead up. And what's the point of a big moment if it adds nothing to the story in the first place. They had one of fantasy's most iconic villains, why was there a secret? The Second Age is where he's cracking out his most rediculous long cons. The man's twirling his mustache while kicking up his feet and writing 'evil' into every date in his diary for at least a millenium, what does a secret identity add to this story really?
Don't worry, I will move swiftly on from the topic of my boy who is not really my boy before we get in too deep... No one needs to hear that... But do you get my point? Big reveal. No substance.
To add a note of positivity, I actually really like Sky man's music. It's genuinely a really nice piece of music. I also liked that they wanted to add one of the 'original' orcs, that's a cool concept!
Oh! And whoever okayed those American 'stage-Irish' accents needs to be fired into the sun :D

Alrightyy saw Challengers for numero uno tonight and these are some thoughts/things that really got me the second time round!
*Thess are just my opinions the film can be read however anyone else wants
Okay so hear me out.. Tashi is such a dom, Art is such a sub and Patrick is such a switch and oooh it got me how at the beginning it felt like he was Arts dom, then he finds this girl he thinks is fantastic and maybe he thinks she could be the glue to bring him and Art and her all together BUT then it totally fricken backfires and instead he loses both. Art the little puppy he is starts wagging his tail in Zendayas direction and next thing ya know he's got a new owner and Patricks a thing of the past much to his palable distress. I mean christ boyos living in his car and starving, boys a mess since his lost his dom and sub poor boyo, so now various things I noticed some of which I feel back up my argument haha
Gosh theres so many little moments, Patricks thing for Art seems so obvious yet Art seems totally clueless.
1) Patrick is defos bi, not just because he just so is but also cause he matches with a guy on his dating app during his swiping.
2) The doubles match they play in the past? Gosh they're all over eachother! And Pats clearly in charge of that relationship and Art seems totally cool with that (for then anyways..)
3) When him and Art are watching Tashis game at the vert beginning Patrick grabs Arts leg in exhilaration. I mean he always seems to be touching or in the space of his boy for christs sake.
4) When Tashi mentions the fact Arts going to Stamford Patrick noticeably makes a face, you could say its because shes paying attention to Art instead of him or that hes upset because shes going to college instead of going profesh BUT I really didnt read it that way. To me it looked like he was upset Art was going to college, they've been together for years after all and now their splitting up, poor boyo.
5) When Zendaya asks if theres anything going on between then, Art laughs and says no BUT Patrick??? Science and he looks down, hell he wishes there was summat.
6) He taught Art to jerk off. Fucking hell.
7) There kiss man, all three of then and then just Art and Pat, just soo much chemistry.
8) When he reveals he slwpt with Zendaya to Art, and Arts smile drops. I think he's heartbroke at him sleeping with the girl he likes but I also see it as pain at being left out. These two people he's entwined with and now he's outside looking in. I also think If Patrick had seen that reaction he'd have seen a looot sooner that his relationship with Tashi might backfire greatly.
9) Patrick vsiting Stamford, first person he goes to see, his girlfriend maybe..? NOPE hes too busy chasing Art around the tennis court 😭
10) There's a ton of hot moments in this film. And the hottest? To me? That bloody stool grab with his foot. He wants Art close, he always bloody does! And the churros christ! And once again showing Art who's top so to speak, eating his churro, and telling him hes proud of his snakey behaviour. And that it makes his relationship with Zendaya hotter (I bloody bet it does) He never ever seems to show jealousy about Arts feelings for Zendaya, he points out thay he doesn't see him as competition to her not long after and I BET his doesn't. Cause I think he'd love it if Art was with him and Zendaya.
11) My God this bit gets be cause it gets echoed later. Him and Zendaya are making out and this girl who he's with and cares about is just talking bout his tennis game. And tbf what does he say?? "Weren't you gonna tell me bout Art" hells bells could you be more obvious?? And then the fight, he asks her if she's talking about tennis and her reply "I'm always talking about tennis" and I mention this cause it's gonna be relevant later.
12) The injury happens and everyone loses something. Zendaya has lost her career and ability to play tennis to her full potential. Art loses his best friend and Poor pathetic Patrick lost his bestfriend(and secret love) and his actual girlfriend all in one day!
From here on I cant guarantee my numbered points are in timeline order as the timline stated getting more out of sequence🤣
13) Zendaya and Art in the diner and after hearing Art and Pat dont talk no more saying she's a homewrecker after all. And what does Art say?? Zip. Nada. No denial just silence.
14) Okay lets talk that sauna scene. It was gloriously tragic. Patrick is clearly unaware why Art is THAT hostile towards him. I mean thinking of it from his point of view he'd have more reason to be angry considering the snakey girlfriend behaviour. But he never is angry at Art, not once no matter what he did. Of course we then discover Art is SO pissed cause he knows about Atlanta. Christ I bet pur stupid idiot boy Patrick thinks hes just being cleverly smug with that "when we were teenagers" line but idiot boyo your rubbing salt in the wounds 😭
15) still about the sauna, the naked trying to be top dog like old times but no no no, not anymore. Arts not his to be in charge of anymore. And the camera shows Art as higher while Patrick slouches nearby. Patrick asks him when he's so mad but doesn't get an answer. This scene was tragic to me, Patrick just seems hurt by Arts attitude. Art points out that they're no longer peers and I love this because thats the difference between the Zendaya/boys relationship and Arts and Pats. Pat may have been the dom so to speak with Art but he still saw them as peers. Zendaya doesn't. Thats the main difference in their relationships. Respect.
16) One of my fave damn parts of dialogue in the movie. (I really can't remember exact phrasing but this is how I rememeber it) Art is so sus of Pat, Pat asks him if he misses it, Art says he doesnt. And when Pat says he wasn't talking about tennis, Art says "Your always talking to me about tennis" and oof the punch to my gut that was. And it seemed to Patricks too! His face, this poor boy has twice been talking to the people he cares about, abou their relationship and they just say their talking about tennis, he cant catch a break😭
17) Pats reaction to Zendaya asking him to throw the game, is he offended for himself? Nopeee he's mad that she'd do that to Art. He says something along the lines of fucking him was one thing but to have Arts victory be a lie?? Gross, too far, too much of a betrayal.
18) For the third time, having just fucked Zendaya in the car and she just immediately brings up him throwing the match, like crimeny man this boy is probs sick of this game getting in the way of his relationships haha
19) Ooh that match point is glorious glorious cinema my friends. Patrick is so interesting in this whole match. Him deliberating on if he's gonna tell Art? So juicy and the way he did was fucking hilarious. That unspoken signal? Beauty.
20) Arts reaction? Wow oh wowww. The lad went through the five fricken stages of grief! The denial "fuck off!" the rage, throwing his racket, the bargaining, looking at Zendaya as if to say its not true (when she has no fucking clue what just happened). The depression, those sad sweaty tears 🥲 and then? That gorgeous smile, that acceptance. I think he felt catharsis, his marraige was clearly dysfunctional at this point and maybe knowing she cheated, knowing she'd threatened to leave if he lost, maybe that helped him let go of it. Ripped off the bandage, turned off life support, finally shake the pedestal he'd put his wife on( he compared her to jesus for christs sake). He made it through to the otherside and Patrick was there waiting for him with open arms ()iterally lol)
21) When Pat sees Arts smile? His own blossoms, clearly in relief and exaltation. I truly think he told him not to throw his game but to spur Art on. To finally unlock his potential. And to get the old Art he knew back and it bloody worked. That final back and forth, the pure energy, those sexual grunts all building up to a crescendo of a climax. Hooo boy
22) That goddamn brilliant leap in the air. Art is freed and flying, and Patrick doesn't hesitate he flings his racket to the floor because the thing that mattered to him most was never tennis. And he catches his boy with arms wide and then that embrace. They have finally come back together. It was beautiful. What does losing the match matter to Pat when he finally has his arms all over Art again just like he did in the beginning. We have come full circle.
Hahaha this is purely my own read into the movie and obvs mostly about the Patrick character and how I saw his actions. Now a few little bonus notes I noticed.
Nearly everything the boys eat/drink seems phallic, hotdogs, bananas, churros, even those drink bottles and cigarettes. Boyos are obsessed!
Zendaya on the rock at the beach was very little mermaid. Also in that scene when she said she wouldn't wanna get between em. Art said they didn't love together but Pat says "It's an open relationship" hecks you too obvious boy.
(Will probs add more when I remember em/see it for third time cause I am planning on that🤣🤣)

Wednesday starts travelling & is writing viper books, both are still in love but having some independance from eachother after being so close in such intense situations & still sending letters & calling eachother. A bad movie adaptation of viper series is made, enid rants about it on stream. -> Wednesday does a remake of bad Viper movie & Enid has a major role & some of other nevermore friends are in it -> Wednesday starts acting/directing etc & becomes a horror scream queen & gets super popular and is also known as super focused and workaholic. Viper books get super popular also. while Enid starts stunt double & Extra work credited as Enid Addams known as Sin Addams on set -> Wednesday & Enid collab on new book Lycoan Curse & it is published credited to Wednesday only, it's a hit. -> Wednesday acts/ helps direct Carnage & enid joins on Carnage as stunt double for it, is an extra in wednesdays next movie Scream in smaller roles -> Lyocan Curse announced to be adapted into show, & Wednesday finally done with ldr and wants to come home to Enid -> Wednesday & Enid get cast as main roles in Lyocan Curse & Wednesday is home with enid now, they are adorable and I love them Am unsure what the timeline is for the bad viper movie & wednesdays remake of it, esp since i think it was before wednesday got popular but am unsure how much that time it gives between having a bad viper movie get made to then having a remake greenlit also if it was during the ldr🤔 Apologies if this feels super nitpicky not trying to be, just trying to wrap my head around the timeline cos I love this sm! anyway ahh sorry for such a long ask, Wenclair and these Au's have me in such a brainrot, I got obsession in my bones -🐅
wenclair start dating by mid to end of 2nd year! Its also the year when Wednesday finishes the book Hyden truth and gets it published around the time the 2nd semester stars.
The marriage happens right after the proposal (both happening in third year, near the end of the actual lunal rite) with maybe a day or two difference just for them to get better from their wounds. Its also the year that the bad adaption of Hyden truth gets made and showcased.
Wenclair and a few of the gang make their own lil remake by themself after graduation. So its not that good of a quality but the effort is shown. Its posted in Enid's old abandoned youtube channel.
The same summer the remake is made, Wednesday makes and publishes her lil short story book that is going to start the monsterfucker allegations in a year or two.
You got everything pretty spot on tiger :D! you did amazing, holy shit. I didn't expect someone to pay that close attention
The announcement of Lunal Curse being adapted isnt when the wenclair ldr ended tho. The 'exile' ended when Wednesday finally sent the final drafts of the book Lunal curse and has it published, she then goes to pack her bags and runs back to enid.
youre so true for this
Wednesday is home with enid, they are adorable and I love them
THEYRE JUST SO CUTE
But just incase, the remake wasn't done during the ldr :) so don't worry abt it
and no worries abt the long ask, i totally get people wanting to understand more on wtf is happening so i appreciate people asking me to expand more :D
thanks again for the ask tiger, have a good dayyy. I totally understand the brain rot, i have it too

"Let's hide until the morning, destroy the clock, and then run away. It's the safest I can think of"
"A sensible decision, but didn't you say that we might not have the time to get everyone?"
"... We are gonna have to try"
"And, uh, call the police? Maybe?"
"Don't they come included with the bomb squad?"
"Oh, right"
"Although, what will happen then? Will they arrest the house? Us? Coli already has gotten out of jail without problems... this is an issue.
Agh, one problem at a time!"
"I'll message Vivi"
"Wait! Technology!"
"Ángel you're right!"
".... I am, yes"
"Aside from us three, the rest are all family! So they have eachothers numbers! We can just tell them to post about a bomb in the bar on the family groupchat or something like that"
"Yeah! I certainly was hinting towards that, no doubt"
"Tell Vivi to go to the main room. Did she answer?"
"Yep, take a look"
Tumblr media
"... Does. Does she only communicate through images of cats?"
"Sometimes the cats have text over them. Other times, she writes a 10 paragraph message in one go.
Really, it depends on the situation"
"Is this a cat pictures situation??"
"This is not her first bomb threat. Look, she even has a kitty deactivating a bomb image"
"... Descriptive.
Anyways, let's get there"
They get inside the house and walk towards the main room
Tumblr media
"So, how are we supposed to find anyone?"
"Well, Marigold is usually somewhere in the main room, but that's not assured. I think we'll just have to search all the rooms here until-"
Tumblr media
"Ah, nevermind"
Simon and Owen appear from the room to the Lounge #2
Tumblr media
"Private Detective Beebo and Detective Assistant Ángel here, we are gonna need you two to come with us"
"Oh wait, is this the wallet where I have the picture of Mozilla Firefox or the one with the shiny pokemon card. Guess it's too late now"
The teens are surprised
Tumblr media
"We didn't do anything! And if we did it was an accident or in good intention!"
"The supermarket had a terrible cart organization. We didn't know they weren't allowed for racing!"
"It's not considered trespassing if the owner of the property wasn't watching and we didn't know!"
"We are minors! Legally we have the right to make a lemonade stand! It was just an alternative recipe!"
"It was the farmers' fault to have such an easily hackable door to his goose enclosure!"
"Hey, hey, calm down, it's nothing about - wait, you let out the 30 to 40 geese??"
"What Beebo here means is that this is not about your possible crimes. This place has received a confirmed bomb threat, and we are here to take you to a safe zone while we deal with it"
"Oh wow, Ángel is learning the ways of the detective"
"There's a bomb? Why"
"Uh. Probably for harm"
"That's so lame. I would rather have a cool bomb"
"... You need to be studied, little creature. Anyways, follow us"
They walk in formation
Tumblr media
"By the way, Boss, why the main room?"
"Well, you said it. It's a relatively safe zone.
It's close to an exit and far away from the point of explosion. I fear that it might cause a house fire or that it could trigger the other bombs.
But we can't ask everyone to just stay outside in this cold, so, main room it is"
"Also, don't call me boss"
"You're so smart, sir"
"... Stick to boss
Sir is for, um, after job activities"
Ángel looks happily surprised
They reach the main room, Marigold is there
Vivi appears from the storage room and gives a wave
Then a middle finger
Ángel answers with another middle finger
Vivi makes a silly pose with double peace signs
"Um, Miss Marigold? I'm private detective Beebo and we have worrying information about this building"
"... So, it really has asbestos everywhere?"
"What? No"
"Wait, really?"
"Is it not?"
"No, no. Um, it's actually about..."
"How to say this without causing her to panic"
"There's a bomb at the bar"
"WHAT?"
"Yeah, we don't know when it's going off, so you guys should stay here"
Marigold goes pale
"Ángel that is very much what the detective handbook says Not to do"
"Sorry, my copy was pirated"
Tumblr media
"Wh- Why?! Was it here before?! Where's everyone else?! Did someone put it!? How do you know?! I am calling the police. Where are Nadia and Nina?!?!"
"Um, uh, well, um, please calm down! We have this under control!"
"How?!"
"Excuse me, I need a quick word with my boss here"
She frantically calls the police
It might be a problem
Tumblr media
"Wouldn't it be easier on everyone if we make them remember? I still have Vivi's book"
"... I don't know.
They are fine now, I mean, this is just a shitty night with a big scare.
With the memories... welll
This becomes the most terrifying night of their life
Bejng eaten by a house, being killed.
Knowing you might get killed again"
"Yes, but that knowledge will make them more prepared to face Coli in case he comes here and does something"
"We can just lie, though! just uhh something about terrorism?"
"In an abandoned hospital? With only 8 people?"
"I, I can figure something out!"
"I'm just saying it would be way easier if we were all on the same page"
"... But would it be the best for them?"
"Well, who are you to decide that?"
"A guy who has died 3 times"
"... That's fair.
Just do what you think is best"

(And on and on we'll go) 'Til my shadow turns to sun rays
Summary: It's Hotch's birthday. He feels sorry for himself and hates the Sun.
Warnings: Food mention, Spoilers for later seasons
Pairings: None
Words: 1.1k
My entry for @hotch-central 's Hotch Birthday celebration. Happy Birthday, old man.
His eyes were burning.
Aaron stirred, and in his disorientated state it took him some time to realize where he was. His back was aching, his double-socked feet were freezing and a stubborn sunbeam was shining directly in his eyes. He was in his bed, or what was supposed to be his bed for the next two weeks. Being in Witness protection was bad enough on a good day, let alone after the second move in three months because of a security breach and a town sheriff recognizing him from a BAU case years ago.
No. It was too early in the day to be thinking about the BAU, about everything, everyone you had to leave behind.
He knew it was selfish to wallow in self-pity, especially since Jack had it so much worse. They were finally settling in when they got the call that they were being temporarily relocated to a cabin in the middle of Nowhere, Colorado. Jack had finally stopped giving him monosyllabic answers to questions and any sort of parental prodding, he even found his footing in the new school and now it seemed like they were going to have to do it all over again. Two weeks in a cozy cabin with unreliable water pipes and heating, rustic looking wooden furnaces and a library nook. A short glamping vacation, his designated marshal has called it. Glamping.
Well, James…if this marshalling thing doesn’t work out, you have a career in real estate, because you definitely oversold the cozy aspect…
The sound of falling pots and pans roused him from his thoughts and the surge of adrenaline got him sitting up and reaching for the gun in the night stand before the rest of his body could decide if that was the right action for his current state.
It wasn’t.
The moment he sat up his back erupted in flames and bright and shiny dots started dancing in his field of vision. What was worse, they wouldn’t go away no matter how much he shook his head. With the frequency that this was happening lately, he was sure his field days were very much behind him. Maybe even his earthly days if he didn't get himself checked over soon.
You are never going back, you old fool. The Bureau is functioning perfectly fine without you. By the time this is over, nobody will remember you.
After a while, he was convinced he could try and stand up. Jack might be in danger and if he doesn’t protect his son, these torturous months of isolation and unhappiness and constant fights will all be for nothing.  
Fortunately, he was saved from any other action against the possible threat by the quiet string of curses in a familiar voice that cracked a bit more every day.
Is he saying ‘fudge’? Oh Jessica..I miss you and your swearing. Maybe you should have taught him the real thing so I’d have you to blame…
“Jack? Is everything okay?” he croaked, noticing the time for the first time since his abrupt waking. He slept in. And his throat hurt too.
“Jack?”
More cursing and then finally an answer.
“Yes.”
“Are you making breakfast for yourself?”
“Yes.”
Hotch sighed. Somehow it was still too early for this. He tried to remember what worked last time Jack was this closed off. The arcade. Except they were in the middle of nowhere with only eachother for company, and unless he managed to train the squirrels to simulate Pacman with the acorns Jack collected yesterday, he was in for a very quiet two weeks and a lot of sulking.
He laid back down and swung his arm over his eyes. Why was there so much sun this late in autumn? He decided he was going to stay in the room for a little while longer. His back was still on fire from the lumpy mattress and if it was one of Jack's bad days, one wrong look and he’d abandon his breakfast and then they’d both regret it by dinner. They needed to talk, but words were hard when you couldn’t offer any reassurance except that it'll all be over soon. When? Who knows.
I guess Peter Lewis knows.
It wasn’t all bad. Jack was a good child, and by some miracle he still loved his father, despite everything he put him through. They would get over this hump soon and maybe truly make an adventure out of the miserable hand fate had dealt them lately. The worst thing was when he started asking about Jess and home. And judging by previous months, they were scheduled to have one of those conversations soon.
Speaking of…
Just as he was about to drift off and let himself marinate in some spicy self-inflicted self-pity, there was a shuffle of feet near his room and Jack came in.
“Dad?”
“Buddy, I don’t know when we can go home. I can ask the marshal next time he visits, okay? I want to go home too, you know that...” Hotch sighed, his arm still shielding him from the stubborn sun rays.
“No, I know. It’s not that. Dad…” Jack paused. Hotch could hear him squirm and could just imagine him biting his lip. He always did that when he was nervous about something. Something big.
Stop profiling your son.
“Dad, can you please look at me?” Jack continued and moved closer to the edge of the bed. Hotch was surprised to hear it groan a little bit, which signaled to him that Jack sat down. He wasn’t sure what either of them did to make such quick progress, but he was not going to analyze it. Not today.
Hotch reluctantly righted himself, opened his eyes that were still blurry from his first attempt at waking. Immediately he found another reason for keeping his vision blurry and unfocused: Sitting in front of him, still in his pajamas, was his son, holding a plate full of pancakes with candles sticking out of them.
Oh Buddy…
Before he could stop himself, the tears just started flowing. Jack’s slight, tentative smile faded.
“I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to make you sad! I just…Auntie Jess never taught me how to make a cake, so this is the only thing I could make…and we don’t even have maple syrup, just that pancake stuff…” Jack continued rambling and it took Hotch several tries to get him to stop.
“Buddy, no, please! This is perfect. You are perfect. Thank you so much.” They both stopped and took a moment to center themselves. That they had in common.
“Yeah. You looked like you could do with some cheering up.” Jack shrugged, his voice now quiet and slightly trembling, and then he reached for Hotch’s cheek and wiped the two trails of tears that were still on his face.
“Happy Birthday, Dad.”

BROKE YOUR OWN HEART
(Can't Finish What You Start)
Remus Lupin & Original Male Character
cw: graphic despictions of violence, angst, blood.
Summary
CHAPTER O4
At first it looked like a normal pub. When they got inside, Mouth and Elliot greeted the busy man behind the bar while going straight to the back, like they were co owners of the place. Remus followed close behind them as they opened the door to the basement, being inmediately attacked by the screams and chants of what sounded like a full quidditch stadium.
It was an old room with tall ceilings and concrete walls, so large it could probably fit two of Elliot's houses, if it weren't for the massive crowd of sweaty men inside.
On the way there Remus learned that they were heading to a fight club. A bloody fight club. And he thought that maybe Mouth was right about getting hurt burn.
At least it now made sense as to why Elliot never hesitated to throw a mean right hook if he found it necessary. He was certain no prissy motherfucker in Hogwarts had any chance against him. And they didn't.
They got just in time before they closed the doors, so they paid the entrance fee -five pounds each- and a bearded guy asked if any of them were fighting tonight. Mouth and Elliot had said yes. 'Oslo' seemed to know them well since they greeted eachother by name and handed both boys two ribbons to tie on their wrists. Elliot got red and Mouth blue.
The fights seemed to have started earlier than usual since they were already pulling a manic guy on top of another bloody face. They dragged the passed out person away from the man-made circle on the middle of the basement and a bald man raised the winners hand in the air, who offered the chanting crowd a crooked smile as he got handed a red plastic bag filled with money.
This was not how Remus imagined spending his summer.
He couldn't wait to see James and Sirius and tell them everything.
The same man held two empty bags -one red and one blue- in each hand and walked around as everyone streched to get their money in before two different men got in the circle and start wrestling.
Remus kept watching as the bald man handed the two bags to a couple of guys in the stairs. They started couting the contents of each bag and splitted both at the middle, waiting for the results.
"If you win you get half of the money the people against you betted, the other half goes to the winner's crowd" Elliot leaned on a concrete pillar, hands on his pockets in a relaxed way "So if fifty people are against you, you get two hundred and fifty pounds"
"Since the stablished amount is ten pounds each" Mouth added "Only rich assholes come see us getting fucked up. They get off on it or something" Elliot laughed "But last saturday of the month means double bets. That's five hundred, baby"
They watched in silence as they dragged another guy out of the floor. This time Blue won. They repeated the whole thing.
"What will happen if no one is against you?" Remus asked Elliot. Mouth snorted at the question while moving his limbs around, trying to warm up.
"That's not a problem Elliot particulary has" he answered.
"Let's just say I'm easy to hate" A knowing smile crept on his face but Remus didn't dare ask anything else.
Soon after it was Mouth's turn to go in. They wished him good luck and the fight begun. He wasn't either too tall or too short, but his beefy muscles were undeniable, so a lot of people betted on him. His opponent was on the shorter side, but was agile and looked experienced.
At first it was pretty even between the two of them, a lot of dodging and not much contact. Then Mouth got the upper hand with a strong kick right on the chest. Until he got swiped by his left knee and fell down to the floor.
"Fuck. That's his bad knee. Broke it one time and never fully healed" Elliot said, worried for his friend.
At the end nothing too serious happened to Mouth. But he did lose after a punch on the side of his head that nearly knocked him fully out, so they called it quits.
Elliot was next.
"You know the rules, gentleman! No shirts and no weapons!" The bald man exclaimed.
As Elliot started walking Remus was suddenly filled with an inmense sense of dread. What if he got seriously injured? Fuck, what if he died? He should've never let him do this shit.
"Merlin fuck, Elliot" his voice wavered, face as white as a sheet "Please be careful" the boy just turned around without stopping and grinned at him.
Fucking wanker.
He watched as Elliot slipped off his shirt and threw it to the ground while opening his way through the crowd of people, that started shamelessly booing at the sight of the familiar boy.
When Elliot finally arrived to the center of the circle he found Remus worried eyes again, but smiled and looked at him as to saying "See?"
Fucking wanker.
His opponent was a white guy with his torso and neck covered in ugly tattoos. He looked like a rabid dog, saizing up a relaxed looking Elliot with muttered growls.
Almost everyone got their hands inside the blue bag. They fucking loathed him. Remus watched the barely half filled red bag as baldie handed both of them to the crew.
The fight was up. Tattoo guy inmediately launched forward to grab Elliot but he dodged him easily, keeping his fists in front of his face. They walked around in circules, both challenging the other to approach them. Tattoo guy finally gave in and threw a fist at Elliot, who managed to move to the side and sucker punch him square in the jaw, making him back down with a groan of pain.
Elliot was lean but strong, well defined muscles danced around his body thanks to the demanding job at the factory. He could be Michelangelo's fucking David, Remus thought. Although having absolute baby-like features, his permanent poker face made up for any problem he could have from lack of intimidation.The other guy looked more like a junkie psycho chihuahua than a real competition. And that might just be more dangerous.
The younger boy leaped forward and got another hit, this time on the eye. But Tattoo guy trashed his arms around, making it impossible to predict where were they going to end up, so Elliot got hit in the nose and the crowd cheered louder as blood started to pour.
Remus could feel his heart trying to thump out of place and had to close his eyes after a couple minutes. He couldn't see this.
The crowd started booing and Remus inmediately thought the worst, and quickly opened his eyes, expecting to see the beautiful face that belonged to Elliot all fucked up on the floor, getting dragged.
But then he remebered they hated him, so they were booing because of Elliot's red ribbon swaying high in the air around his wrist. He had won. The biggest shit eating grin Remus had ever seen on his crimson lips as he admired the crowd that insulted him.
"We've got the winner, gentleman!" The bald man pushed the red bag close to Elliot's chest as the noise got louder "Hold this tight in your way out, kid" he told him.
So Elliot took off running through the crowd, grabbing Remus by the hand and making him pick up his speed as they ran up the stairs and closed the door. He couldn't risk getting the bag snatched by a pissed off asshole, so he dragged Remus out of the pub all the way back to the basketball court, where Elliot dropped his hand to rest them on his knees, trying to catch a breath. Remus did the same as they looked at eachother.
"Fuck"
"Yeah, fuck" They started laughing.
"I can't believe I just got out of a fight club" said Remus, calming down.
"I can't believe I just got out alive of that fight" retorted Elliot jokingly, indicating Remus to follow him, so they started walking home.
"The bloke was mad" Remus sizzed "I couldn't even watch after he started spinning like an helicopter and hit you in the nose" At the injuries mention, Elliot tried to wipe some of the blood that got on his mouth, but the nose had stopped bleeding "Shit, it's not broken, is it?"
"Nah, it would hurt like a bitch if it was. I'm actually pretty okay. Definitely got worse than this" Elliot said, actually surprised. "Maybe you're my lucky charm" He sent a flirty smile to Remus, who wanted to murder him for it.
"Lucky charm or not, I'm not ever going back to that place" Elliot snorted.
"Fair enough"
It was already fully dark out, the stars shining dimly -nothing like Remus sky back in Wales-. The sandy haired blonde had catched the pubs clock before leaving the place. By his suprise, it was just eight thirty, the whole day had felt so much shorter.
They arrived at the front lawn. Elliot's eyes went straight to the driveway, checking for a beated up grey car, but it was empty, as always.
"Fuck. They can't see me like this" he stopped Remus before he could get any further. Elliot pulled off his pants -again- and grabbed the hose -that they never used-, letting water pour as hard as it could without risking getting caught by the noise.
"Merlin. Can you stop getting undressed in public? You can get arrested for nudity, you know?" Elliot laughed as an old lady walked down the street, eyeing Elliot without holding back. Remus rolled his eyes at the boy for waving a hand up to the woman teasingly.
"Why? Jelous, Lupin?" Elliot said, going back to rinsing his chest and face out of any trace for blood. Without it Elliot looked mostly normal, he still had some time before the bruises develope, so he can make up an excuse tomorrow. "Good enough, right?" Remus nodded sheepishly as Elliot slipped the jeans up again, they were dirty but the dark color helped to diguise it a little.
They passed the door and saw Elliot's mom cooking something in the kitchen as they greeted everyone inside. Lupe and Eric where running around in the living room, Dominic was struggling to catch up to them, but happily. Gia was probably studying in her bedroom.
"Hey, guys! Dinner will be ready soon, okay?" She said "Why are you shirtless... and wet?" Elliot looked down to his body as if that was the first time he saw it too. Keeping the red bag of money behind his back.
"We went swimming down the lake. Must have left it there" she looked suspiciously at him but didn't say anything else, going back to the cutting board.
They both took showers -separated- and changed into some clean, sweat-free, clothes. They sat together on Elliot's bed. The window was open, letting a summer breeze refresh them even more, thanks to the thin layer of cold water still on their skin.
Remus watched, almost hipnotized, as Elliot tended to a small cut under his right eye that he was glad Marian hadn't noticed yet and as he spreaded over his face some antinflamatory cream he kept on the dresser.
After Elliot finished he grabbed the red bag and let all the money out on the bed, crumpled up in a high mountain between the two boys.
"Wanna help me count?" Elliot asked, making Remus snap out of his daze and nod quickly.
They counted in silence, scrunching their face in disgust when handling some of the bills that had specks of blood on them.
"Do you do this often?" Remus murmured, without looking up from the task, but could sense Elliot gazing up at him.
"Not anymore. Only for double bets" he shrugged.
"Why?"
"Why do I fight or why I don't do it often anymore?" Elliot snickered, raising a mocking brow to try and alivate the intimate vibe that made him a little too uncomfortable.
"The latter" Remus serious tone made contrast with his friends nochalant attitude.
"I can't afford dying, Rem" he shook his head jokingly, althought it was a sincere explanation. Remus had to stop himself from literally gulping at the nickname.
"Why did you even start fighting, then?"
Elliot sighed exasperated, as to let Remus know that this wasn't a conversation he wanted to have. What he didn't know was that the taller boy had stopped caring enough to keep walking on eggshells around him, and decided that if he wanted to get in, maybe he had to break the door down.
But Elliot didn't let him.
The sardonic grin returned to his face as he raised the neat stack of money in his hand " 'Cause of seven hundred and sixty pounds, baby"
Remus let him have this one.

────────────
I knew a boy once, when I was small
A tow-head blond, with eyes of salt
I knew William back when we were just some random younglins in sweden. Our blonde hair and blue eyes could be spotted from a distance away and they know it was us. We grew up next door to eachother, and if you couldn't fine one of us, we were most likely with the other. Growing up Mrs.Nylander always liked to joke that we were soulmates, well actually she wasn't joking. I thought that too but then he left, for Toronto and then it was too late. I really thought we'd somehow, someday be together. I still remember that day, the sun was shining so brightley, the air just right, the lake calm as ever with soft waves and the perfect picnic to end the summer.
I remember doing a double take, and then blabbering about college and how we had planned to go to college together while he was in the Sweden Pro League. All he did was stare at me, and I realized that our plans had changed without me knowing.
And somehow, we fell out of touch
Hope he took his bad deal and made a royal flush
Don't know if I'll see you again someday
After he left for Toronto, we planned to stay in touch. We did until his first game in the NHL. His family and my family flew out to Toronto to catch his first pro game and then after that, things changed. More time passed between text messages and face times. More and more excuses from him and at some point I'd had enough. So I blocked him on social media and his phone numner. The Willy I had grown up with and the one I had cared so deeply for, was no longer the one I knew. Maybe the billet family had changed him? Though when we met them, they were sweethearts especially the blonde mom. Maybe the money had but that would have been so out of character for him
The Nylanders moved a few blocks away in 2019, and that was the the first time she had heard about them or William for that matter. Despite having the home next store, they spent most of their time in Miami and their Canadian home. So there was really no way that I'd see him ever again. Our lives were just so different.
After they moved, she heard through the grapevine that William was having a hard time in Toronto. He had even reached out to my dad for some advice, because of his time in the Sweden Pro League and understood long negotitations on contracts. My dad spent the better part of a day talking to him and for the first time in years, she heard his voice. It was deeper than the last time she had heard it, and his laugh even more hearty.
My dad went on to explain that his contract wasn't what he deserved, at dinner after his signing. He had wastde the first part of the season, and feared it would harm his career. My dad said that he'd get paid no matter what but would of walked away and try to get another contract for smaller time. But that was his decision, because he loved the team, staff and city. That meant, he would not be seeing the family anytime soon. He wouldn't be seeing me for who knows how longer.
Address the letters, to the holes in my butterfly wings
William left a hole in my heart, that has yet to be closed now at 25. . I fear that it will never be. My grandmother explained that the reason it hasn't healed is because I still am holding onto hope that Ill see him again and he'll see me the way I see him. My grandma jokes I should fly to Toronto without a return ticket and see what happens. But everybody knows I'd never do that.
Well, I hope you know how proud I am you were created
'Cause I love you, and I hope that you're okay
My dad during the 2022 playoffs, said one night at our weekly Sunday dinner that he was getting a ton of hate that was unwarrented. But explained that it was just part of the job, and the hardships of it. I remember nodding and making a note to look him up when we were done. I saw the hate that they were giving and going after who he was as a person. I debated on reaching out to him and wish him well in the playoffs but debated if that was weird or wrong of me. I enlisted the help of my two sibilings and they pushed me to do it. Stating that I was his absolute best friend at one point.
I opened instagram, unblocked his account and opened messages.
Hi Willy-
hope ur okay! Sending so many positive vibes and love as the season rolls on. Keep pushing the boundaries, Raring. (darling)

>:00 I'm sorry that a lot of stressful stuff happened Pri; weekend is right around the corner though! I hope you're getting the rest you deserve this week with some sweet, well deserved MCC 24 (and the hopefully played Build Mart Remix) >:D!!
About your Tumblr tag problem, have you tried asking Tumblr support about it? 🤔 Initially I thought it may be something like a shadowban or something of your blog but some your post do show up in the tag like the Vex!Cub and Vex!Scar, so it's uh, the tag is pretty weird, I think. I'm sorry I can't really give any suggestions on it 😔
Lastly! If you need some suggestions on request, I sure have one! What about a Double Life Xisuma and reader? Both of them have been close 'friends' (coughs coughs, the theme of Xisuma silently pining seems to be popular so if you don't mind) during Hermitcraft and just so happens to get paired up in Double Life.
It's soft domestic moment where the first green-yellow life is spent normally and happily until maybe they get to red and some final death tragedy struck?
It can end in and angsty plot orr, it can end where both of them spawned back at Hermitcraft in the end. Maybe reader ended up going "Well that was fun while being in a relationship." And then just.. Ask if he wants to actually be in one with them?
- 🌻 (I'm sorry that this is confusing. I hope you have a great day/weekend though! Good luck!! :DD)

Xisuma x Reader ▪︎ Romantic
Tumblr media
Word Count ▪︎ 1,120 words
Summary ▪︎ A recount of your lives on Double Life, and a retelling of the end of them.
Note ▪︎ I've gotten some rest and I feel a lot better. I have actually talked to Tumblr support about it, but their solution was to ignore it. I think it might just be the tag. I unfortunately did not watch mcc, I was busy all day :( I hope you enjoy this, its a bit different from usual. You have a good day/night too, 🌻
Tumblr media
It was originally your idea to sign up for Double Life, but Xisuma was benefiting from it. In the beginning, he was sure that he wouldn't be paired with you and assuming you would be paired with someone else, namely Scar or Grian. When he had found out he was your soulmate, he was elated. This was his opportunity, his way of getting even closer to you and eventually asking you to be his lover.
As soon as he was able, he suggested the idea of moving far away and building a house, just somewhere where the two of you could live in peace. You jumped at the idea, having always admired the simple domestic lifestyle others have. When you told Xisuma this, he melted inside. It was like the two of you were meant for eachother, literally. You were already soulmates, and now you wanted the same life as him.
The first few months on the Double Life server were simple and peaceful. You and Xisuma had began a farm, tending to larger crops and harvesting from a small garden near your house. You shared chores, and alternated who cooked on what days. It worked well for the two of you, and any time not spent in the garden or fields was spent together, cuddled up in a loveseat the two of you had built. With all the time you spent together, it was only a matter of time before the two of you slept in the same bed, sharing your nights as well as days.
About 4 months into staying on the server, you both had lost your first life. It was a simple accident, and you had fallen off of your roof after you slipped. You woke up in your bed, Xisuma beside you as he asked you if you were okay. You nodded tiredly, the fatigue of of the respawn settling on your bones. He lets you rest, tucking you into bed gently and telling you goodnight.
After that, Xisuma had become more protective. He took over all jobs that were remotely dangerous, leaving you to harvest and plant in the garden and household chores that didn't include anything sharp. Despite the extra work, he hadn't struggled at all, leaving you no need to pick up the slack. You had more time after that, and most of it was spent lounging after he had completely barred you from the fields.
It was many months before you lost your second life, having gone to visit Grian and Scar after they had complained about your isolation. To make a long story short, it had been a trap. It was a prank originally, but it had backfired and instead of sending you into a pool of cold water, it sent you into a lake under a thick sheet of ice. You had banged on the ice, screaming for help from the two who had gotten you into this mess. Apparently, the teleport function in the trap had broken and sent you underwater. This was a lie. You didn't want to admit it, but the 'prank' was not a prank. You respawned after that one with Xisuma panicking over your body, his helmet off and his hair a mess. Once he decided you were okay, he made you stay in bed for the next few days. You were still weak from the respawn, and your method of death had weakened your lungs from so much inhaled water. He took great care of you, only leaving to give a quick once-over of the crops in the field and pick up vegetables for you from the garden. You were just as domestic as before, even while on red. The only difference was the slight buzz under your skin, calling for revenge against Grian and Scar. You mostly ignored it, favoring to knit and read while bedridden.
Xisuma, on the other hand, had a harder time trying to control the longing for revenge. It was a constant for him. Anger wasn't a new emotion to him, but he had never seen this type of anger. Burning, wrathful anger, the type of anger that tears through servers and ends lives. This anger was explosive, acidic in his veins and left a bad taste in his mouth. This was the anger that made him kill.
When you had fallen asleep for your nap, he had acted. He left you a note, telling you not to worry and that he would be back in a day or two. He sought vengeance, and he made his way to Scar and Grian on a warpath. When he reached them, he killed them. It was easier than he thought, quickly finding the upper hand with Grian. The man was so much smaller than him. and it was easy to kill him.
The feeling of the blood on his hands burned. He was sickened, and appalled at what he had done. The guilt weighed heavy on his heart, his hands in his lap as he sat in the same loveseat the two of you had sat in days before. This is how you found him, blood shot eyes and blood stained skin, his armour already set aside at the door. You didn't ask, because some part of you already knew.
Your last lives were lost only a few weeks later, this time on purpose. You had been allowed back outside now that Xisuma was sure you were okay. You had been in the garden while Xisuma was deep within the fields, too far away to hear or call to. This was when he had been found. You didn't see who it was, just felt the piercing pain of phantom wounds and the slow, creeping feeling of cold that often comes with blood loss. Soon enough, you were sprawled out on the dirt, dying with no wounds. That's how you stayed for minutes, time passing so slowly it felt like hours. Finally, your eyes fell shut and you were at peace.
You woke up with a start in your bed in Hermitcraft, sweat on your brow and a name at the tip of your tongue. The feeling quickly passed, and you relaxed back into your bed. You stared at the wooden ceiling, tracing your eyes over every line and blemish in the wooden beams. You lay there for hours, not moving. Something was missing, you could feel the hole in your heart where it was.
Five hours into your solitude, someone knocked at your door. You got up sluggishly, taking your time to walk to tour door. Once you open it, Xisuma immediately wraps you in a hug. Something inside you tells you that this, this is what you were missing.

🏡 + wlj (wade lee junior)
there was a period in his life i think wade convinced himself maybe he was someone this just wasn't going to happen for, and that had to be okay. did he want a family? of course. but he was always working or traveling or doing both, and so was mikayla, so it just didn't seem realistic. plus, he still had a big family, in all his little nieces and nephews, and in chelsey and starla even before they were together, and that would be enough, right? but ultimately, it wasn't in a really big way and i think that's part of what finally helped him and chelsey get together in the end. since they were teenagers, that was his person, and when your person gets pregnant by the worst guy you ever met, it means you double down and gain an additional mini person. and he had to take a certain level of space just so he didn't go literally insane being Just Friends with chelsey, but really and truly chris janson vc done and locked in with them from the start. like the actual logistic change of we live together and raise starla together was actually probably the easiest part of their getting together. because he had already loved that kid for her entire life. like it was so perfect that i think he got nervous when they got pregnant because like. how're we gonna capture lightening in a bottle twice. but the joke was on him because as nice as instant family with the lifelong love of his life was, intentionally choosing eachother and choosing their family was even better. i think it also makes him feel close to his dad to be where he is now. like he ran for a while not just from chelsey but from dealing with working through wade sr dying and tried to make his life as different as possible to distract from it. but there's something that just makes sense about setting up the lawn chairs for him and his lady at the saturday morning soccer games. they're going to enjoy their thermos coffee and periodically peek back to make sure the other kids are only moderately horseplaying in the background. like theres no where in the world he'd rather be. to that same logic, it made him closer with the rest of the family too. he was never like estranged from kyleigh or his siblings but in putting that barrier between him and his hometown he inadvertently put a wall up between him and his loved ones. i think he was stuck in his head for a long time but having kids pulled him out of it a little because this is a group of people who will always matter more than made up scenarios in your brain.

Sorry for asking another question so soon, and double sorry if you've answered this before, but would Skel care about what happened to Rye?
You've mentioned before that he'd be ashamed of her, but how would he feel knowing that A. She was killed in a horrible way after being crippled? And B. That one of his friends was the one that caused it?
Also does Evan even know Skels full name? And even if he does, does he not remember Ryes full name?
Please take this meme as payment.
Ginger reading the letter that Itchy forged:
Tumblr media
Dude never apologize for asking questions, that's what this blog is here for! Every question helps me develop this world even further. I appreciate each and every one. <3 Flood this inbox with as many questions, comments, and memes as you like. They literally give Looming Gaia life!
Speaking of memes, this one gets a gold star. ★ It's SO easy to picture Ginger just squinting at that letter like "bitch wat the fuk..." lmao
And that is a hell of a good question too...I had to think about the answer for quite some time. Here's my logic:
We know Skel is ashamed of being a slave, and by extension, a goblin. He's ashamed of every aspect of his ancestry. I imagine he would be ashamed of his parents because of this, and by that I mean he wouldn't want to be seen with them. He doesn't want to meet them. He doesn't want anyone to know them or where he came from.
Skel remembers very little of his mother. He remembers her name, but he doesn't know that Evan's family used to own her as a slave. Evan doesn't have a close enough relationship with Skel to tell him something like that, nor does Skel know Evan well enough to tell him his full name, so Evan does not realize Rye was related to Skel.
In short, neither Skel nor Evan realize that Rye ties them together.
If Skel realized that Evan was responsible for her death, I imagine he'd have very mixed emotions. He'd probably feign indifference at first, acting like the whole thing didn't bother him. He'd say, "Well, that's what she gets for giving up her name! I'd rather bite off my tongue than let it speak my name to a lasher! So another worthless, lowly hob lies dead in the ground, who cares? Not me! I rose above that life! It's no skin off my nose!"
And I think he'd truly believe that at first. But deep down this knowledge wounds him, and over time this wound begins to fester. He'd carry this pain around for a while, stuffing it down over and over every time it tried to rear its head, telling himself that his mother got what she deserved and her life never mattered anyway, so why should he cry for her?
But there would come a day, probably months later, when he tries to reassure himself...and he can't, because no fae can lie, even to themselves. He would finally have to admit to himself that he's hurt. And with that admission, I think he'd fall apart emotionally. All that pain he was holding back would spill out at once, and his friends would see him suddenly "snap" for no apparent reason.
He'd go apeshit on Evan out of nowhere. Maybe the crew is having dinner in the dining hall, Evan makes a little comment that rubs Skel the wrong way, and it turns out to be the straw the breaks the camel's back. Skel stands up and attacks Evan with a telekinetic pulse, sending him flying across the room. He'd start screaming with tears in his eyes, calling Evan a heartless lasher and so on, and the crew would be utterly confused as to why...
Except Evan. Evan knows why, and he feels terrible about it. Skel storms off and Lukas is furious at him, advising Evan to suspend him for this--or better yet, fire him!
Evan refuses to punish Skel. He simply tells Lukas that everyone has bad days, and later on he talks to Skel in private. The two have a real discussion about their feelings over this matter, holding nothing back this time, and they're able to finally reconcile with eachother about it.
That's just one possible outcome for this scenario though. I think there could be lots of different answers!

Office Wars
Tumblr media
Pairings: fem!reader x Jaemin
Theme: Fluff, Mild Jealousy, playful arguments, light crack, humour, protective.
Word count:2.2k
Gist: You were always at each others throats at work and everyone knew that and was used to that but maybe there was more than just the arguments on the surface.
Tumblr media
"Ms. Y/l/n you're typing too loudly" Na Jaemin said with his infamous smirk plastered on his face.
A collective sigh was heard across the office. Your colleagues were all used to the usual banter that took place between you and Jaemin, easily being able to tune the noise that followed.
You however found it particularly difficult to avoid the banter when Jaemin picked at you for the most ridiculous of things.
"Oh I'm sorry Supervisor Na I didn't realise your hearing aid was on" You replied, the snark to your tone didn't go unnoticed as Jaemin scoffed but you couldn't be bothered to look away from your work.
"I don't need hearing aid to hear your keyboard being murdered, the poor thing has to recieve the brunt of your anger caused by Writer Kim"
You slammed your hands onto your table and angrily spun your swirling chair in the direction in which Na Jaemin sat.
Your anger doubled as you saw him proudly smirking from his position, knowing you just gave into his taunts but you couldn't care enough since he was the one that made the low blow.
"Don't you ever get tired idoling around and causing your co-workers headaches?" You said to the smug looking boy before getting on your feet and waking to the pantry.
Jaemin smiled as he watched you dissapeare behind the wall that separates the office and the pantry.
You made two cups of coffee, calming yourself before you walked out placing one on Jaemins table and carried the other to yours and got back to your work. At this point the office was slightly accustomed to your dynamics but it still baffled them. No one understood how the two of you worked, one minute you were at eachother throats the next second you were on the same team. And they didn't even try to understand, they just went along with it.
Like right now,
"You're going to be late for the briefing if you don't hurry your pretty little fingers up" you mocked, the cheeky grin plastered on your face clearly showed how amused you were by the fact that Na Jaemin had FORGOTTEN to prepare for today's briefing as your teams supervisors in this small publishing company.
The furiously typying man let go of his lip that was trapped between his teeth to grind them together, eyes wavering for a second to glare at you before focusing on his task at hand.
You cheerily walked away, a skip in your step as you reached the meeting room waiting for your supervisor and CEO to enter, happily chattering with your colleague Joy about the small queer owned business the two of you came across on instagram because of this month.
Soon the CEO stepped in and the room fell quite, Jaemin was still not on his seat but a minute later he walked in apologising for the delay.
A rather short and surprisingly sucessful briefing later you walked back to your desk to finish of what little work you had left before you streched, slightly pushing your chair away from your desk.
"Ready to go y/n?" Joy asked coming upto you and you grinned at her, nodding.
"Don't waste time then c'mon" you heard the annoying voice of Na Jaemin say from behind you and then saw the man in question walk past you. You glared holes into his back and Joy chuckled.
You and Joy continued to chater as you made your way to the restaurant your team always eats at, to find that your entire team was already sitting there.
"I ordered what you asked me to" Your colleague Suho said to Joy who thanked him.
You took your seat inbetween Crystal and Yangyang, which also happened to be directly opposite Jaemin.
"I ordered (insert dosh of your choice) for you" Jaemin told you and the two of your stared at eachother for a few seconds and then you smiled at him thanking him.
Everyone let out a breath they didn't know they were holding at that, expecting you to get mad at him for ordering for you without you asking him to.
The wait for the food to arrive was peaceful, except for the few snark remarks you and Jaemin exchanged but it wasn't something that people weren't used to.
Upon the arrival of your food your eyes lit up. Ever since you were a kid you loved to eat, in fact you were the biggest foodie in your family.
You excitedly picked up your chop sticks ready to dig in before a voice interrupted you.
"Your food isn't going anywhere slow down or you'll burn your tongue." Jaemin said nonchalantly and you ignored him poking out your tongue at him and immediately digging in for a big bite.
As soon as the food touched your tongue you're eyes widened at the sharp sensation caused by the heat immediately dropping the serving back onto your plate as you started to pant like a dog because of the heat.
Yangyang who was next to you noticed, placing a hand on your shoulder and picking up your glass of water with his other hand.
"Careful Y/n" he warend rather uselessly after the deed was done, bringing the cup of water to your lips so that you could wash down the heat with the cooling water.
You drank the water, hands reaching out the hold the cup on your own. Once the burning sensation cooled down, you turned to Yangyang offering him a smile while thanking him.
You're attention then turned to Jaemin who sat infront of you glaring at no one in particular, expecting him to be looking smug.
You shrugged at the change in attitude as you continued your mean, this time blowing on your food before you took a bite.
Not even fifteen minutes later you felt a kick on you shin and then looked up to see Jaemin leaving, you sighed rolled your eyes and finished the food on your plate as fast as you could before dashing out back to the office. No you didn't forget to pay, the meals were handeled by the company.
You reached the office only to find Jaemin sitting on his seat pouting angrily as he typed away. You chuckled, deciding to not indulge him as you walked back to your seat and got on with your work and ignored the way Jaemin looked at you even poutier than before.
Ignoring him was a bad choice since after that he got even more annoying, dropping more files on your desk for you to deal with, making random comments about your corrections, complaining about anything and everything and you just ignored the fussy manchild with an eye roll.
"Y/n we have to go for the mandatory company diner now." Joy said to you and you looked out the window at the end of the office to see the sky becoming a dark orange hue, it was late evening.
"I still have so much to do" you whined, letting your head fall onto your desk with a thud and Joy winced, not knowing what to say.
"Stop whining y/n and just come back and get it done. I have work to do to so I can walk with you back to the office after dinner." Jaemin said walking upto your desk.
You lifted your head sligtly to look at the tall male who was looking at you, waiting for a reply to his question and you sighed head falling between your arms again.
"We have to leave now we don't have forever y/n make a choice" Jaemin said impatiently tapping his foot on the floor.
"Okay let's go!" You said suddenly jumping up and marching towards the exit. Jaemin chuckled and Joy looked at you as if you had grown two heads but then the two of them immediately followed behind you.
The company diner was uneventful. Mr. Choi on of your clients was making what he though to be flirtatious eyes at you again but you only saw it as creepy. But you were still able to enjoy you meal, sitting between Jaemin and Joy, happily chattering away.
After everyone was done eating you knew you couldn't stay to chat and you lifted you phone off the table checking the time and signalling Jaemin who nodded and the two of you bid your goodbyes.
"I can walk you if you want y/n-shi" a rosy cheek and very drunk Mr.Choi said and you gagged.
"It's Ms.y/l/n to you Mr.Choi and there's no need I'm walking her there, making sure our employee feels safe by making sure you're not around them." Jaemin said, eyes glaring daggers and the now offended drunk man.
"You" Mr.Choi yelled pointing his finger and an unimpressed Jaemin "How dare you talk to me like that! Don't you know how important I am to this company" the angry drunk man yelled.
"Mr Choil please stay professional because it isn't that hard to find good writers, especially on to replace you." Your CEO spoke up and you had to hold back a chuckle at Mr.Chois flustered face as his mouth opened and closed not able to form any words.
"If that all we'll be taking out leave." Jaemin said grabbing onto you hand and bowing at your CEO who nodded and quickly dragged you away. You quickly bowed in respects to you CEO too before you were dragged away by Jaemin.
"I felt like punching him" Jaemin said on your walk to the office, hand still holding yours.
"Me too" you chuckled at the fuming male as you walked the rest of the way in silence, hand in hand.
You immediately rushed to you desk upon reaching your office and started typing away and Jaemin lazily strolled to his seat, doing whatever he had to do.
Half an hour later and all you had to do was send out two mails and save the document you were working on, so you let yourself relax alittle slumping back onto your chair. You peaked at what jaemin was doing and smiled. "That's a good score, must have been alot of WORK" you teased and Jaemin looked embarrassed at getting caught.
"I-i was bored okay" he said avoiding your gaze and you smiled.
"Okay"
You crossed one leg over the other, leaning over your desk to send the last two e-mails and save the document you were busy correcting.
Just as you finished with your work and sat up straight Jaemin spoke "You know when a person sits with crossed legs and their legs are pointing towards you that means they like you" he said pointing at your position and you looked down to see your leg was indeed pointing at him.
"That means you like me y/n." Jaemin said cheekily wiggling his eyebrows.
And you looked at him eyes screwed as if you were judging his entire existence, which you were "Jaemin" he hummed in reply still grining, "We're engaged it would be really weird if I didn't like you" You said and Jaemins grin grew even wider and you sighed chuckling at your happy fiance.
"Yea it would be weird" he said sliding his chair towards you, crashing into you slightly and you steadied him.
"Ahh your so cute my y/n" he said pulling you into his arms and plukering his his lips trying to kiss you but you leaned away from him just to annoy him.
"Don't avoid my kisses" he huffed pouting as he tried again but you teased him again avoiding him.
"Yah! You brat give me a kiss!" he yelled and you chuckled turning you head to give him a small peck on his nose but he had other plans immediately moving his face and his lips met yours in a sweet kiss in which you felt yourself melting into. Kissing Jaemin was always calming and he always tasted sweet even thought he drank that disgustingly bitter coffee.
You slowly felt his hands snake behind your head pulling you closer lips moving in sync as he deepend the kiss, your breaths mingled as both of you felt lightweight. You got lost in eachother for a second before you slowly pulled away resting your forehead against his. He smiled at you eyes sparkling in the dim lit room.
"If someone walked in on us right now they'd have a heart attack" Jaemin joked and you chuckled. It was an unspoken rule between the two of you to keep your relationship a secret in the office and you did that by bickering. "We should tell them now though shouldn't we?" You asked and Jaemin pecked you cheek sitting up staright, "Yea and hand them the wedding invites" and you grinned, heat rushing to your cheeks, you never got used to the fact that you were to get married to Na Jaemin, your soulmate.
Needless to say when the two of you told everyone at the office the next day you were pretty sure some of them were this close to having a heart attack. But most of them Congratulated you as you stood hand in hand with Jaemin, grinning like an idiot.

Not your fault - Levi x reader
Just felt like it had been a while and came up with this. Hope ya'll enjoy reading!❤️
Warnings: none really. Mentions of death. Angst and a dash of fluff at the end.
Saying I was scared was an understatement. No, I was shook to the very brink of my existence. I hadn't expected it to be so nerve wracking as it was, now that I had finally joined the scout regiment.
I had expected this of course.
Who wouldn't? Specially when they were proned to fighting naked humans as tall as trees running at you like they were on their morning caffeine rush.
What was even worse was when the stoic captain of the special operations squad decides to pick you to be part of his squad. "I appreciate your skills," he said.
Well I guess there wasn't really much to fuss about that apart from the new mission we were setting up for and our very special rivalry.
Today, everything had gone smooth until that female titan had decided to come waltzing in.
She had managed to wipe out all of Levi squad and I felt my blood boil. My mind was in a blur, filled with thoughts of nothing but blood lust. Just from her.
Eren's screams played at the back of my mind and even as I caught sight of him shooting towards where I was, I couldn't find it in me to stop him.
As cruel as it sounded- I wanted her to feel the pain as I did.
I glanced down at Petra's body. The eyes that always greeted me with brightness were now looking at me blankly. Tasting the saltiness from the tears that streamed down my face unbeknownst to me- my cool demeanor finally broke. Snapping out of my trance I pushed myself off the branch I stood upon.
Shooting my hooks into the skin of the female titans shoulder, I zipped through the air screaming in anguish. I swung my blades over my head, aiming for the hand that covered her nape. If I could just cut through her wrist-
Just as planned, my blades sunk into the flesh of her wrist. Deep, but not deep enough.
If only I hadn't been distracted and just pushed away right then..
Her large hand came in contact with my body, swatting me off like as if I were some insect. Which in her case, I probably looked it. With a pained yelp, I was being thrown through the air.
"Y/N!" Eren.
My eyes shot open just when a bolt of lightning struck through the air. Ah.
I realised what was happening.
I tried to aim my grappling hooks at one of the trees before I probably fell to my death or by the slightest chances, fell straight into a titans mouth. But everything was in a blur and with the way the titan hit me, I couldn't quite direct my focus onto one thing. And before you know it, I had already inched closer to the ground, crashing straight into a tree. I doubled forward and my body slid down against the rough surface.
Cursing inwardly, I glanced down at my body; my lower half, sprawled out on the ground as I slumped against the tree.
I wanted to move, to assist Eren - but my body refused to respond. I couldn't budge and for a moment, I hoped I had died through impact because the thoughts that ran through my head were killing me.
My body felt limp almost like as if I was paralysed. I fought to keep my eyes open. The ground beneath me shook and my ears were filled with the sound of Eren's titan screaming. And with that, black filled my vision.
>>present<<
My body shot up at once and I winced at the sudden pain that shot through my body.
"You're awake."
That voice.
I snapped my head to my right and I was greeted by those steel eyes that belonged to none other than the captain. I had this urge to shrink and disappear out of existence under his icy gaze and-
Wait.
I was alive? Or no wait. Good Gods, please don't tell me he died too!
Without thinking, my hand shot out to grab his arm that was crossed over his chest. This took him by surprise and his eyes shifted between me and my hand with a hint of annoyance laced in his features. His body had tensed under my hold and I immediately pulled away with a gasp.
"I-I'm sorry sir. I just-"
"I found you not too far from the rest of the squad," he cut me off. My head lowered at the mention of the others. "I didn't think you were alive considering the amount of blood you lost. But that's when you coughed, splattering all your substances at me and well- you know the rest."
I didn't know what to say. Even if I did, I didn't have it in me to speak or make a snarky remark like I usually did. The thought of my fallen comrades made me sick to the stomach. But I couldn't cry either.
No. Just not with him here.
You remember how I said we had a special rivalry going on between us? Yeah.
Ever since Levi had asked me to join his squad- we'd always been at eachother's throats. Which I didn't quite expect considering how he picked me.
He'd say something sarcastic, I'd snap back at him and vice versa. It eventually came to the point that commander Erwin had to walk in one time, suggesting Levi that it would be best if I were switched to Mike's squad. But Levi had simply walked out of the room.
Just like that, Erwin asked me to make the choice and I said no. Why you ask?
I wanted Levi to accept me.
I couldn't even remember what started this rivalry to begin with and it was eating at me constantly. I had never seen him snap at people as easily as he did with me. Well he did occasionally, but this was on a daily basis and it made no sense at all.
Hanji said it was just his nature and that I'd understand him later. I realised that was she said was just ridiculous because this man, he didn't even dare to show me a little bit of respect. So I decided I'd leave him be and put up a mask whenever he'd target me but that's when things got worse. He always found reasons to argue with me and I caught up with it too.
Breaking down in front of him wasn't an option now.
Levi's chair scraped against the floor signalling that he was probably leaving.
"Thank you," I said quickly, making him stop in his tracks. I'd never said that to him before. But since he saved me, it was only right that I did.
His head turned around halfway and he eyed me narrowly. "For saving me," I finished. He clicked his tongue in response and left the room, shutting the door a little louder than I expected.
Cue the breakdown.
I flopped myself back on the bed. Grabbing the pillow that supported my head, I hugged it tightly as I screamed into it.
The tears didn't stop.
I couldn't save my comrades. Why did the captain even decide to pick me in the first place if I couldn't save my own comrades?
It was getting harder to breathe with my face stuffed in the pillow and the choked up tears didn't make it any easier. I felt so pathetic. But no matter how much I tried, it wouldn't stop. The guilt and hatred just kept coming back to me.
It felt like I had been crying for hours already as my body spasmed, signalling the next fresh batch of tears approaching.
The sound of the door opening and closing again made my body freeze.
I peeped up from my pillow and regretted it instantly seeing the captain standing at the foot of my bed, holding two cups in his hands. His eyes locked with mine again.
Maybe it was me just seeing things but his eyes widened and very slowly, he made his way upto the side of my bed.
"I brought you some tea," he said stoically. "Drink it before it gets cold."
I subtly wiped my eyes against the pillow and sat myself up on the bed like as if I hadn't been crying my eyes out just a few moments ago.
Avoiding eye contact, I thanked him silently and took the cup from his hand. Even though I wasn't looking at him, I could feel his gaze lingering on my face. Feeling too self conscious, I brought the cup up to my mouth only to wince as I burned my tongue. A weird sound came from me and I slapped my hand over my mouth.
"Tch. Be careful idiot. I didn't ask you to drink it that fast," Levi scolded. I face palmed inwardly, brushing it off with a sheepish grin. He cocked a brow and shifted his gaze outside the window.
Silence.
I didn't mind the silence, but with him sitting right there, it felt like my nerves were dancing. If that was even possible.
Eyeing him subtly, I noticed how his gaze seemed distant, longing. And that's when I realised. I was being selfish.
I wasn't the only one who had lost my comrades.
"C-captain-"
"Levi."
I tilted my head in confusion and nodded right after catching what he had meant. "Levi. I-I'm sorry."
"What for?"
"For everything."
"Be specific." I gulped. So he wanted a full on confession. Here it goes.
"Well for being.. for being a brat." He raised his brows and turned to look at me. I shifted my gaze to the floor at once, finding it easier to speak calmly that way.
"That wasn't a joke, I promise. I was being selfish. I didn't know how much pressure I might have been putting on you by always being snarky and uncooperative. And now too.. I was considering my own feelings without thinking about how you felt. I just- didn't understand why you hate me so much."
"I don't hate you," he said abruptly. I looked at him slowly but reluctantly.
"I-" he ran a hand through his hair, releasing a frustrated sigh. "I don't hate you. I was just worried."
"Worried?" I asked.
"Worried you'd end up like this. Or by the least, end up dead."
Ouch.
"You doubted my skills.. yet you picked me to be a part of your squad. I don't get it," I mumbled.
"Idiot. It's not like that," he barked. "I recall saying I respected your skills. I really do. It's just that you can be reckless at times."
I gasped in disbelief.
"Reckless?"
"Yes. Reckless."
"How could you-" he raised a brow and eyed my position on the bed. I followed his gaze and it dawned on me. Half of my body was wrapped in bandages and my arm was in a cast.
Yeah. Reckless.
"I had no doubt in your skills, keep that in mind brat. I picked you for my squad because I knew you'd be a good addition to it and-" He paused, looking like as if he were in thought before continuing.
"It was easier to keep an eye on you this way."
I shut my eyes tightly, guilt flooding through my veins little by little.
"But I failed." My eyes shot open hearing this.
"I failed you and I failed my squad."
"Levi-"
"No y/n. There's no denying it," he said. I noticed how his voice was beginning to shake and that just made my heart ache. I had never seen him this way. "I told you that I added you to keep an eye on you and look at you now. Even worse, I failed to protect the rest of my squad."
"Levi," I said softly. "You know, if I ever end up dying out there- I'd never blame you. I'd never say you failed to protect me. But what I would want you to do, is to give our sacrifices meaning. We devoted our lives. We chose to go down this path knowing the circumstances. Knowing that someday there could be a chance we wouldn't come back home. So just know, this is not your fault and they don't blame you either. Even if it is, we must make their sacrifices worth something."
Levi stared intently at me but this time, I didn't feel like shrinking away. I wanted the man in front of me to have reason to fight, to know he wasn't to blame. And that all of this- we were facing all of this together.
He didn't say a word. I didn't expect him to either and I didn't mind it.
His gaze was everywhere and for a second when his eyes met mine, I couldn't help my urge and slowly yet hesitantly- reached out for him.
"May I?" I asked.
He tilted his head, confused by what I was asking permission for. I opened my arms slightly for him and after a short while, he shockingly leaned in slowly (not before shifting awkwardly in his seat though). Wrapping one arm around his shoulders and one hand on his nape, I pulled him into my embrace gently.
I felt his fingers trace over my clothes slightly like as if he were contemplating what to do. After a few seconds, his body completely relaxed in my arms and I felt his hands slowly snake around my waist.
"It's okay Levi," I whispered and rubbed his back in attempt to comfort him. He tucked his head into the crook of my neck. That made a soft smile crawl up my face.
This man was a fighter but he was also human. A human with feelings no matter how stoic he could be. Hanji was right.
>>Third person's pov<<
It was at that moment, that a new friendship began to blossom between the two. A spark of hope and a reason to fight in their dark world.
Okay phew.
That came out a lot more angsty than I thought it would be haha. But I hope you all enjoyed reading it and have a wonderful day/night!❤️

joining the dea and javier peña falling for you would include
Tumblr media Tumblr media
a/n: first javier request and my soft clown ass did her best to bring this request justice for you corazoncitos,, wow anyways pls love me either way if this is actual garbage
taglist: @fandomnerd16 @visintaes @sheeshgivemeabreak @artemiseamoon @umvirgo @redhairedace
let me know if you want to be tagged!
ok so when i thought about this- my mind went straight to a slow b u r n relationship :))
because all i can think about is him not even realizing the moment where you- the very person hes been trying to avoid since day one- holds his entire heart in your hands
like him coming to the point where he notices hes so deep in love with you the very second he stared at you a little longer than usual,,
 not paying attention to what you said even though he was staring straight at your lips- 
and hes just over here like “fuck me,, this cant be happening-”
i laugh because i know he would start to get all nervous around you,, 
his tie feeling like its choking him when he tries to talk to you, becoming tongue tied,, when he had literally zero problems before talking with you- 
his palms sweating and getting so frustrated with himself,, especially when he looks over at you when you laugh at something steve or horacio said to you-
just wanting you to be laughing at something he said instead-
just the literal exact opposite feelings hes been trying to push away and convince himself he doesnt have has him beyond done with himself at this point because he knows theres no way out of this-
because?? since when the fuck ever did the javier pena start getting nervous around trying to talk to a woman and much less the person that hes supposed to be working with,, thats what pisses him off- 
and i would imagine him having this closed off connection with you since the first step you took in the office
because i have this thought in my head where javier wouldnt have liked the news of you joining the dea in colombia when he first heard about it
bc theres already so much stress going on from trying to catch escobar,,
and hes not about to have to train and catch your rookie ass up to them ya feel?
but woW does he realize he has it all fucking backwards about you when steve introduces you to javi when you get there-
like im not going to lie,, i can feel it in my bones that javier wouldnt really care when both you and steve are standing in front of him
i can just imagine him just glancing up,, looking you over once and just brushing you off,,
just giving you a short hello with like a forced smile and getting up,, grazing past you two-
and steves over here rolling his eyes like “dont listen to him, he can be an asshole,, but youll get used to it-”
i dont know- i get the feeling that you and steve would get along well since the start,, like the two of you becoming best friends:)
because he knows what its like to be in a different country and even more, what its like to be the rookie
so hes just having you always stick with him all the time,, being dea buddies :)) wow
but also having a good relationship with carrillo because i just know he would see something in you-
youre not the one to be a goody-two shoes like steve in the beginning and just by hanging around with you for 5 minutes,, he already loves you and is always with you on missions,,
like you becoming one of the people he trusts the most in the group :)
just- you befriending the whole office to the point everyone would come to you for literally anything-
i laugh imagining javiers amargado ass always being annoyed af by that,, because weve seen this man stress tf over escobar and bernas bs hes always pulling-
and hes just trying to be serious for once and not have this whole case drag on any longer than it has to the point where people dont come to him anymore- 
but listen- i can see you having this attitude with him all the time,, like challenging him everytime you interact with him,,
literally not giving 2 shits if he listens to you,, just getting under his skin and steves over here already on your side no matter what-
i cant-  imagining him giving you an attitude back,, pushing you away and sending you with murphy but
 :(( even tho he wont ever admit it then,, :( he lives for bantering with you because those would come to be the highlights of his day :((
like in those moments he slowly starts to realize unconsciously he doesnt hate you at all,, he just doesnt know how to handle these feelings he has for you because he gives me vibes of him never settling down-
but here he fucking is,, not even noticing that hes constantly looking at you,, sitting up straight when he sees you start to walk over to him :(
or like him muttering to himself,, trying to convince his mind that he doesnt and shouldnt see you in a romantic way-
but he just can’t help stop thinking about you,, the way you smiled at him that morning or that you chose to sit by him during a meeting- 
i dont know- im just emotional at the thought of him being so hopelessly in love with you,, like not even fighting it anymore because he cant
just him slowly coming around to being near you all the time,, and maybe just checking up on you,,
i CRY at thought of him becoming your number one hype man :((
like him yelling at everyone to shut up and listen to you when you have something to say about information-
the both of you smiling to each other,, like him nodding in your direction because he has your back :)) wow i aM SOFT
im fucking sorry but the way he has literal HEART EYES watching you talk in front of everyone,,
not even paying attention to what youre saying just focusing on the way hes never noticed the little details about you- i
this bitch is literally in a haze,, focusing all of his  attention on you,,
like he doesnt even notice when steve looks over at him and back to you,, smile on his face when he realizes what javis thinking about-
i cant- and him elbowing javiers side when you finish talking because hes not even moving from his spot,, still too embobado watching you like
“you fucking like her dont you?”- 
:((HOLD ON?? - I SOB at the thought of steve being the wingman because he just wants the best for both of his friends,,,
 he makes it his fucking mission to get you two together- :((
like im imagining him being the type to give you a note or something from carrillo or messina-
telling you to pass it on to javier even tho he’s literally like 4 feet away from you both lol
like hes just trying to push you two to spend more time together as much as possible-
woW because can you imagine you giving javier these smALL HEART EYES AS YOU WALK UP TO HIM,,
the two of you being stuck to the floor when youre giving him the note,, both of you waiting for the other to make a move first,, 
neither of you being able to get 2 words out to eachother even though you both would banter with each other before but now?? its a difference feel
and all the while steve is over here next to carrillo,, the both of them betting which of you two is going to do something first lmao
god im sorry but im :(( imagining you giving him a small smile and walking away buT javiers not even looking at the note because hes over here standing there,, not moving a single muscle,, just watchinG YOU LEAVE WITH THE BIGGEST HEART EYES WHEN YOURE NOT LOOKING AT HIM ANYMORE- :(((
oh my god, wow can you imagine steve getting connie in on this because hes just so done waiting and watching you both fucking struggle to get 4 words out to eachother- so much p i n n i n g
so like the two of them would definitely do this double date just to get the two of you together outside of work :))
but:) they would skip :)) halfway through the date or just not show up at all :)))
and have you and javier go on :)the date alone :)) so its just the two of you :) WOW
listen i dont make the rules but you and javier definitely walk in the next day together,, holding fucking hands perhaps?? im- i need to go sob
