note | this was supposed to be part of the final chapter but I unintentionally wrote it too long and I felt like there will be a lot of things happening if I add this there. Don't worry, the finale will immediately follow. For now, here is a not-so-little back story on how they met.
main masterlist | series masterlist
Tumblr media
“Doll, Y/N…” he called out softly. He heard a muffled sob and he knew that you are crying not because of that sudden headache. It took a few more knocks and calls before you answered.
“Please, leave me alone, Steve.”
It breaks his heart to hear your broken voice as you pushed him away again. But he would never get tired no matter how hard you try to hide your real emotions from him. This isn’t the first time you hid from him. If he have to beg for you to show yourself, he would. 
“Please talk to me. I’m here, sweetheart.”
Louder sobs followed from the other side of the door. He rested his hand on your door, looking down at his feet. This is torture. As much as he wanted to talk to you last night and clarify his plans after returning the stones, he still wanted to wait for you. He is draining any remaining patience he has in him because he knows how badly you two need to speak. 
With you hiding or running away every time he tried to reach for you, it reminded him of how you arrived and disappeared from everyone’s lives before. 
Tumblr media
“She is a newly hired agent, employed specifically by me. Agent Y/N will be working closely in the IT unit.”
Steve crossed his arms as Fury introduced you to everyone in the room, The Avengers. Except for Thor, he was in Asgard. You don’t seem intimidated though since your face has a neutral look. Your eyes were impassive. At first glance, you looked like a simple lady who goes to her eight-to-five office job. You wore a plain, white blouse and a black pencil skirt, matching your low-heeled pumps. Natasha had the same pose as Steve, but she seemed proud as she looks at you. Clint, who was next to her, offered you a single nod. Bruce gave you a short, polite smile. Tony was the first one to say something.
“Just because I told you I’m taking a break, you’re hiring a new girl for the tech?” he seemed offended as he talked to Fury. He, then, turned to you,  “Can you go out for a sec–”
“I don’t think you would want me to leave after letting me in in your highly secured building,” you spoke nonchalantly while looking around.
Fury smirked, “Y/N has very sharp memory skills and is a master hacker. Also, she has been trained as a martial artist ever since she was eight. She used to work as a spy and marksman for various groups and organizations.”
“Who were you working for before?” Bruce asked.
Instead of answering the question immediately, you turned your head to Nick. He gave you a single nod.
“I worked for a lot of people. I don’t really know most of them since the higher-ups just give me assignments. I was required to follow with no complaints or else…” your voice trailed off. Everyone in the room could see your eyes getting lost for a second before you sighed heavily. 
Steve later learned that Natasha was originally the one who brought you to SHIELD. It was Natasha's solo mission to take down the training program you were in. Out of almost fifty people in that program, you were the most proficient and definitely the only one who almost defeated the Black Widow herself. She talked you into coming with her while having an intense one-on-one battle with you.
 
“We were both already bloody by the time I took her to the jet.” Natasha quipped. “She later revealed that she was also the one messing up with my comms when I got into their location.”
Before you are officially recruited, you went through tests and interviews with Fury and Maria. You refused to answer without Natasha's presence. Like she was your lawyer or something. But at that moment, she was the only person you trust from SHIELD. You can feel her genuine empathy and honesty to you when she also shared how she got into SHIELD.
Just from hearing stories from Natasha, Steve can tell that you are highly skilled in what you do. But he cannot help to be curious about the sudden recruitment of you. SHIELD already has its practiced IT department, why hire a new one? It became more suspicious when you were separated from other IT specialists in the organization. You have your office on Fury’s floor in the SHIELD headquarters in Washington. In your first weeks, you worked in the office. A month after your arrival, you were assigned to join Steve and Natasha to retake the Lemurian Star that was hijacked by pirates.
“Why is she joining us?” Steve asked Natasha while they waited for you to finish your briefings with Fury. “Isn’t she supposed to be with Fury all the time?”
“She is not his assistant, Rogers. She’s also an agent.” she reminded him, rolling her eyes.
Steve didn’t say anything more. You later joined them in the debriefing with STRIKE while on the quinjet. Steve noticed how quiet you were. You didn’t ask any questions but you seemed focused and ready for the task. You simply nodded when he assigned you to your spot. Steve jumped off the aircraft first. 
Minutes later, he was asking for everyone’s update in the comms. You were the only one not responding if you were in your spot. Just when Steve smashed Batroc into one of the rooms, he sees you pulling out a flash drive from the computer. Your unbothered eyes met his. His eyebrows scrunched together. He was about to say something but the pirate threw a grenade in your direction as he escaped. With your shared coordination, you two jumped to another room. Both you and Steve tried to catch your breath as you two ran for miles.
“Let’s go back to the jet,” you whispered almost breathless. You stood up and walked away, leaving Steve more confused.
“It’s weird to stare.” 
Steve automatically moved his gaze away from you. You two are now in a smaller aircraft SHIELD sent out on the way back to the headquarters. Natasha is with STRIKE and other hostages on the other quinjet. There was an apparent air between you two as you sat in front of each other. You put your leg on top of the other as you continue, 
“You know, if you have questions, you can just ask.”
Steve didn’t hold back and went straight to what he was curious on, “What were you doing with that flash drive?”
“I was getting some files,” you replied matter-of-factly.
“What files? Why?”
“That was my mission.”
“Our mission is to rescue hostages,” Steve stated. He is too annoyed to notice you only answered one of his questions. 
You shook your head, “No, that’s your mission, Captain. I have mine.”
The jet was landing already but you and Steve continued talking.
“You almost jeopardized the whole operation.” he hissed.
“How so?” You raised an eyebrow. “The mission was done well, right? No one really died or got hurt except for the pirates. I retrieved the files I was asked to get while you saved the hostages. I don’t really see any jeopardization there, Cap.” 
You are too composed that Steve can feel his blood boiling from your headstrong attitude, “What are those files for anyway?”
“Eh, none of your business,” you answered cheekily, standing up from your seat.
“Did Natasha even know about this?!”
He did not receive the answer as you strolled out of the jet. Almost half an hour later, Steve marched into Fury’s office later that day, still wearing his stealth suit. Just when he was walking in the hallway to his door, you were walking out of the said office. His jaw clenched when you greeted him with a sarcastic smile,
“Oh, hey, Captain.”
He ignored you, looking ahead. As soon as he entered the room, Steve expressed his dismay and frustration to the director, who was quick to defend you from him. 
“Agent Y/N had a different mission than yours.”
“Which you didn't feel obliged to share.” Steve interjected, “I can't lead a mission when the people I'm leading have missions of their own.”
To gain his trust again, Fury showed him the plans for Project Insight. It didn’t last long since Steve decided to leave before another argument began. He was a few seconds in the elevator when the door opened, revealing you. You now wore a more casual outfit than the one you wore on the mission. Jeans, a striped shirt, and a denim jacket. You also have glasses. It was a new look of yours that he sees since you often wore normal office clothes. There were seconds of silence, only the sound of you opening a lollipop wrapper can be heard. Steve pursed his lips before asking,
“So, the data are for Nick?” You remained quiet and he took it as a silent answer for yes. “
“Look,” you took the candy from your mouth and turned your head to Steve.  “I understand that you don’t really trust me since I suddenly showed up here. I don’t trust you either, okay? You don’t have to waste your time speculating about me and my presence around you. I swear, if you’re going to search my name on Google again, I’m gonna put the worst virus in your phone and computer.”
Blood came rushing to his cheeks and ears. He did search for your name on the Internet. It was a dumb move but he was itching to have any kind of information about the people you worked for.
You proceeded, “I’m just here to do my job to Fury. Not to SHIELD. He needed my skills, I needed to pay for things I’ve done before. Once I cleaned off some dirt on my name to him, I’ll get off this organization.”
“You’re leaving?”
He didn’t mean to sound disappointed but he was obviously surprised. You eyed him like you did not expect him to have such a reaction. You two were in the middle of your exchanged glances when the elevator let out a sound, signaling that you have reached the ground floor. You were the one who broke the exchange, walking out.
“Goodbye, Cap.”
With your stuffed backpack and tied-up hair, you walked farther away. That was the last time Steve saw you. Then, a lot of things happened. A day after that last interaction with you, Fury was shot in Steve’s apartment, where he take possession of the same flash drive you had. Natasha helped him in finding out what was in it. When he asked her about you during a drive to New Jersey, she said that you don’t really plan on staying to be a SHIELD agent or maybe an Avenger.
“She’s probably soul-searching somewhere.” Natasha blurted out, staring out the car window. “That girl has been through shit. The training program she was in almost worked in the same way as the Red Room. She should be living her life the way she wants.”
They discovered later that SHIELD was infiltrated by HYDRA. While in Sam’s place, he wondered if you knew about it. Maybe that was your secret mission to the director. More events happened. He saw Bucky once again. Fury was shown to be alive, aided by Maria Hill. He half-expected that you were with them in their secret facility but you were not. They took down SHIELD and the group’s hidden files were leaked by Natasha to the Internet. Your information is, of course, nowhere there. It was like you made sure that you will never be found by anyone again.
More years and events passed. Ultron happened.  You still passed by Steve’s mind every once in a while. The Sokovia Accords and Avengers split happened. He was too busy that he finally got you out of his head. After laying low, Natasha helped Steve in getting the imprisoned Avengers in the Raft. He had no idea where to go. But fortunately, Natasha says she knows a place where they can stay.
“She…is alive.”
Steve watched you quietly as you socialize with Wanda and Sam. For the first time in years, he saw you again. You welcomed their team into your isolated farm in a foreign country, offering them more comfortable lodging and meals. He was surprised to see you go out of the house when Natasha was landing the quinjet. You still wore the same plain expression on your face but he can see from your eyes that you were more at peace.
“Of course, she is. She just left the country and lived a different life.” Natasha chuckled, sitting beside Steve. “You knew she is alive, right?”
“I did… I guess. But seeing her again after a long time is like a confirmation.”
In their first few days, you and Steve didn’t really interact. You have a large homestead farm, he can see how you can manage living by yourself. He’s been wanting to talk to you. He was unsure why but he knows he wants to apologize. 
“Be patient with her. She doesn’t really talk much about herself to new people unless needed.” Natasha once told him.
“I’m no stranger to her. We worked together before.” Steve spoke defensively.
Natasha clicked her tongue, “Please. In the whole two months she was in SHIELD, you never personally introduce yourself to her.”
Before Steve can get lost in looking back on the time he met you, she spoke again, “If you really want to talk to her, you can try. Just try and have patience.”
Two weeks exactly after they arrived at your place, Steve asked if he can come with you when you were leaving the house to work around your farm. You scanned your eyes from his head to toe before looking back at him again, “Okay.”
“I’m just picking fruits today. So, there’s nothing really much to do.” you shared.
The weather was perfect. The morning sun was kind enough to not be too hot for your skin. You two strolled far away to the house. You seemed more comfortable this time as you were humming some melody like a little kid. Steve’s heart warms seeing that you seemed better than the time you got recruited.
“I really appreciate you letting us stay here for a while, Y/N.” he began, making you pause. “And I want to apologize for being too cynical of you before.”
“It’s fine. I understand,” you replied, not turning around to properly talked to him and just continued walking to one of the trees. “I was someone who have a bad record and worked for wicked people. I wouldn’t trust me either if I were you.”
Steve cannot see your face but the emotion in your voice speaks a lot. It was clear as the blue sky that you still carry the burden of whatever happened in your past.
“It’s not your fault,” Steve spoke softly.
Finally, you turned around, instantly meeting his eyes with a melancholy smile, “I know. But, I still did it. My hands will forever be stained by all the things I’ve done… ”
He can see your eyes turning glossy before you blinked and looked away. You were quick to shake off any threatening tears that could show your weakness. Suddenly, you opened your arms, presenting the tree next to you with a grin.
“Here is my favorite tree in the whole yard!” 
Steve would be lying if he say that he didn’t find it amazing how fast you can change your expressions, almost believable. But he didn’t talk about it. He lets it pass since you seemed pretty excited telling him about the fruits. He didn’t know how long he helped you pick out various fruits such as apples, peaches, and a few oranges. But he didn’t notice that the basket he was holding was full until you pointed it out and told him that you two should wander back to the house.
“How did you have this farm by the way? If you don’t mind me asking.” Steve inquired carefully.
“An old couple sold it to me for a low price. I paid them with the money I got from Nick after doing that job for him. At first, I was aiming for the couple’s house only since I loved how secluded it is. Then, they told me that this farm is included, which was amazing since it can help me avoid driving away to the city every other day for food. So yeah, I bought it.” 
Steve thought that that will be the longest dialogue you would ever say to him. But as every day went by, you got more relaxed in telling him about yourself. You two bonded over early morning coffee chats and picking fruits. And yes, Steve introduced himself to you, letting you know that you can call him by his name. You introduced yourself too with slight mocking:
“Okay, Steve. I’m Y/N. Don’t worry, that’s my real name. Google won’t give you any other name of mine.”
You love waking up early to see the ravishing sunrise while Steve sometimes struggles to fall asleep as he thinks about Bucky in Wakanda and the aftermath of the accords. So, most of the time, the other Avengers in your house will see you two in the morning sitting on the top steps of your front porch with two cups in between.
“Wanda said she’s planning to go with Vision,” Steve confessed in one of your mornings.
You don’t seem surprised as you continued to look ahead and take a sip from your cup, “Yeah, I know. They’ll be staying in Europe.”
“Do you think it will be safe for them?” he expressed his worry with that question.
“He’s an android robot made of vibranium. She can move things with her mind. Steve, I think they are going to survive.” you grinned. But Captain America seemed too serious and concerned with his friend, so you turned in his direction, “Look, they’re going to be fine.  Wanda and Vision are a literal power couple. I don’t think they will let anyone hurt or even lay a finger on them. And based on what Natasha told me, she can see Wanda still evolving her power. I cannot imagine what more she can do when someone hurt anyone she loves. And I know you guys will always come to them if they ever needed help.”
You two sounded like parents who are having a conversation about letting their daughter go live independently. Steve nods at everything you said. Maybe he’s just overthinking things. 
“Whatever you are feeling, it’s fine. You are their leader and you are just concerned about your members.” 
That was the first time he felt your hand over him, giving it a soft squeeze. He saw you doing it to Natasha once when you two were talking alone in the kitchen. He didn’t mean to eavesdrop but it was time Natasha was talking about her sister. You also gave her comfort through your words just like how you did with him now. Other than being a spy or hacker, Steve learned that you were a great friend to everyone too. You and Sam get together well and you can ride along his jokes. With Wanda, you enjoy cooking and watching something on your television. You even prepared an impromptu going away dinner for her before she leaves with Vision. You are like a shapeshifter who can easily get along with everyone.
“Yeah, I definitely became a shapeshifter at one point.” you joked one time. You were getting cozy in one of your cool early mornings with him. You were wearing a white cardigan over your grey nightgown. “By the time Natasha leaked all of SHIELD’s files, I was already out of the United States. I am always ready. I have fake passports and identification cards for different purposes before. I erased all of my information from SHIELD before I left, I knew the government will be after me if I didn’t.”
“Where did you go?”
“I moved from one country to another. It’s fun, you know? Trying out different names and identities. It’s like playing hide and seek.” you shrugged. “Unbeknownst to me, Natasha and Clint were both tracking me down after Ultron happened. They thought they can ask me to join you, guys to avoid such tech issues again. But after what happened to SHIELD, one of the highly-secured organizations before, I don’t think I would want to join any kind of group.”
Steve nodded, “Yeah, it’s hard to trust again after that.”
“That’s why you didn’t sign the accords,” you mumbled like it was a fact.
He didn’t answer but you both know that it was the truth. You two let the silence slip at the moment, only watching the far sky. It was like a painter’s work of art. The rising sun painted the sky with captivating, calming shades of orange, yellow, and pink. Steve tilted his head in your direction when he heard you slowly let out a shaky breath. A single tear rolled down your cheek, making him concerned.
“Are you okay?”
You chuckled, wiping your eyes with the sleeves of your cardigan, “I just love the colors so much.”
You met his furrowed brow gaze. You tried to smile but your lips trembled, “T-This is my fourth year out of that horrible training program. Thanks to Natasha.”
Steve smiled as he was happy with that. You sounded proud and he wanted to maybe greet you for this achievement. But your tears don’t look like from joy, it seems painful.
“Also the same day my mom was shot dead in front of me and I don’t know what to feel about it,” you admitted, sounding more defeated. “I never really got to cry about her death since I was brought to the program right away and we were not allowed to feel anything there. We cannot laugh, cry, or even hum anything. We will be punished if we don’t follow. That… that really sucks.”
You chuckled, one of your many ways to cope. Steve watched you with sympathy. 
“Yet I got away. I’m here.” you wept. But tears kept coming in. “But with all the immoral things I’ve done as a spy, I don’t know if I deserve to be here or feel happy at all. I don’t know.”
It’s not your fault, Steve wanted to remind you again. But you continued, “And I usually spend my days alone. I always try to work around here to distract myself from any kind of emotion. But now, to sit here in peace with someone, in front of this sunrise, my feelings are really all over the place and I feel unworthy of it.”
Gently pushing the coffee cups aside, Steve scooted closer to you. He wrapped an arm around your slumped shoulders. He lets you cry to his shoulder, damping that part of his shirt.
“I know I should feel happy for escaping hell. But my heart hurts so much.”
For the first time in years, you admitted what you have been feeling inside. You never told everyone about it before. Steve is very much aware that you just shared the most intimate confession you had and he appreciates you trusting him with it. 
Two, three, or four minutes flew by, Steve is still holding you to his shoulders and you were calming down. He felt you lifting your head.
Your chest still heaves from your sobs when you spoke, “I-I’m sorry about that. I probably got carried away–”
You stopped when Steve shakes his head side by side slowly, “No, it’s fine. You don’t have to be sorry for everything. It’s okay for you to feel emotions. You’re a person and everything you are feeling right now is valid. You can express whatever you want. Laugh. Cry. Sing whatever song you want. You’re free. No one’s going to hurt you now.”
The moment he said that last sentence, he read the relief showing from your glistened eyes. Your shoulders were shaking when you cried harder. You turned your head down, hiding your face. Steve’s hands carefully reached down to your cheeks. His thumbs softly swiped the trickling tears.
“Feel free to take your time processing your emotions. You can cry for now but you don’t have to carry it with you all the time. And you will never be alone now. You accepted this group of war criminals in your home, so we will stay with you forever. You have no choice.” he tried to lighten up the mood and he grinned when he heard your lips letting out a giggle. “Natasha is here. I’m here. You can come to me, okay?”
You nodded wordlessly against his palms. Steve smiled and you did too, showing more ease than earlier. You looked back at the sky, and he mirrored. The sun is about to shine bright with the white clouds any time now. The mix of colors is almost gone. 
“Everything you said meant a lot. Thank you, Steve,” you murmured. Your eyes are beginning to puff and get weary from that bucket of tears you poured out. You opened your arms and you two shared the warmest bear hug. 
“Thank you for opening up to me, sweetheart,” he replied before planting a kiss on your hair.
That moment unquestionably got you two closer. Your two other housemates, Natasha and Sam, were not shy about showing you two that they noticed it. They would sometimes tease you about it. But you two shook it off.
“Y/N, this is obviously favoritism.” Sam accused you.
Steve and Sam were playing scrabble. Natasha was keeping scores while you check their words in your hefty dictionary book, also given to you by the old owners of the farm.
“No, it’s not, Mr. Wilson. The word was here in my handy dictionary. It’s acceptable.”
The Falcon rolled his eyes, “No one uses flapjack in a sentence anymore.”
“You just did.” you teased him.
Both Natasha and Steve chortled. Sam gaped his mouth open, dramatically reacting.
That’s how their first four months happened in staying in your house. Steve almost forgot that they were just laying low. They still have to be alert to every danger that comes to Earth. Of course, with your tech skills, you still helped them with getting information and making useful gadgets for them with limited resources. Steve was thankful that you lend your skills in tracking growing harmful groups in different countries.
“Can I join you guys?”
Steve paused from fixing his boots when you suddenly barged into his room with a single question. It was unexpected. Earlier that day, Wanda, who’s currently in Scotland, sent out a message to you about Vision’s mind stone. Something strange was going on with it. Steve, Natasha, and Sam immediately planned to go to them as soon as possible. 
“Are you sure, doll?” 
Steve stood from the edge of his bed and walked to you. It has been two years since they came to your quiet farm and they’ve done a lot of missions with your assistance for their techs. But you never volunteered for going on missions.
“I am. I feel like I’m ready and I can help. I will be a great backup.” you insisted. Steve knows something’s going on in your head to make you have a decision like this. He seemed to be thinking deeply, so you added, “I can feel that this is a big mission, Steve. I don’t think I can just sit and wait for you three to come back here. I really want to go this time.”
Steve stared at you even longer. He knows that you are fit for joining them, you are one of the most competent persons he has ever known. But he doesn’t want you to be placed in any dangerous situation. It was like after knowing for a couple of years, all he wants is to keep you protected in this private land you own. But with your strong-willed attitude, he knows he can’t. 
“Steve, you know that I will still go with you even if you say no, right?” you calmly asked.
“Then why are you still asking me this?”
You gulped, stiffened your posture, “Because… I want you to know that I trust you and you are important to me. Even if I won’t follow you if you’ll say no, you are important to me.”
With how quiet the whole room became, he can hear the heavy beats of your heart. He knew, by the rhythm of it, that it was almost identical to his own heartbeats every time he sees you at the start of his day.
“I know you are already Captain America but I want to be with you in all of your battles. I want to fight next to you than to stay here, wondering how are you.  I want to protect you. So I can make sure that I will still see you at the end of the day. I want to make sure that I will hear your voice calling me whatever nicknames you like because I love it. I love it and all the other things you do for me. The simple meals, the walk to the trees,  the coffee sessions in front of sunrise, and all the hundreds of kisses you left on my hair, forehead, cheeks, and nose. All of them. And sometimes, I wish you just–”
Absolutely caught off guard, Steve pulled your waist closer to him and placed his lips on yours. You didn’t react at first but you kissed him back. And at that moment, he cannot think of anything else except you. Your charming smile, your hearty laugh, and the humming of your voice every time you two walked outside to pick fruits. He suddenly felt your fingertips combing through his growing hair. He gasped when you slightly pulled his hair. But before the kiss could deepen, you pulled away.
“Your beard tickles,” you murmured, making Steve laugh. “But I like it. You looked really good with it.”
Instead of responding, Steve just peppered your face with kisses.
“Okay, I’ll take that as a ‘Yes, you can go with us’.” you giggled.
Steve raised a brow, “It means to say ‘I love you’. But yeah, sure, come with us.”
You squealed and ran out of the room to prepare. Steve grinned seeing you so excited. But then, you come back, poking your head to his open door.
“Oh, and I love you too.”

Steve already played this game with you before. Now, he is willing to wait. But it’s hard when it feels like you’ve been pushing him farther and farther away.

So, I couldn't think of any good ideas with drawing Nick Valentine for Valentines Day, and I'm being lazy (might be sick) and using a base this time around. So, I instead decided to take my mascot, Retro and draw them using a base with a furry version of Nick (based on a design from one of my comfort character's on Toyhosue, Valentine (Cornelius) Enjoy or don't. I'm content nonetheless.
Time taken (1 hour) | Program used: Ibis Paint | Base used by: Girlsrok_art on Payhip.
(I had to edit it because apparently when I extracted the lineart, the signature for the base artist went poof. Ugh.)

Dylan just wants to have his first kiss with Ryan. Why do people keep interrupting them?
They are an item now, kind of. No, no, not kind of Ryan. They're official. Ryan said so himself. And Dylan is determined to lay a big ol' kiss on him to seal the deal.
But of course, Mr. H walks right into the radio hut when Dylan is leaning in, so close to Ryan's pretty mouth, and then they're five feet apart and Ryan awkwardly shuffles out of the shack.
Dammit.
Next he tries after Ryan's morning sailing lesson, but little Suzy interrupts to ask a million questions about lake fish before Dylan can even get his hands on Ryan's hips.
Lunch hour? Oh, suddenly, Abi needs Ryan's help setting up for an artist lesson.
Hiking trip? Sorry, Dylan, Emma can't reach the lighting equipment for the theater performance that night and now you have to get it down.
Dinner hour? Nope. Dylan and Ryan are both on watch duty, so all they can do is eyefuck the entire hour over Nick's, admittedly, tasty meatloaf.
Dylan relents to a kissless day, pouting at the back of the auditorium as the kids put on their rehearsal. He did do a pretty stellar job with the lighting, but he'd much rather have sucked Ryan's face.
He feels a gentle tap on his shoulder as Kevin on stage stumbles over a line and Emma encourages him. "Yeah? Oh, Ryan!" He whispered.
"C'mon, let's get out of here." Dylan doesn't have to be told once, as Ryan squeezes his hand and tugs him out of the auditorium, out into camp, farther still until they're on the pier of the lake.
"Ryan, I-"
Before he can say anything more, Ryan presses their lips together and Dylan gets with the program, deepening their kiss and turning it wet and heated.
When they pull apart, Ryan laughs. "Been meaning to do that all day."
"Yeah? Heh...me too."

Tattooed Hearts by Alaskan_Outsider.
It's my favorite because I like the different uses of soulmate trope. I haven't seen much with the matching tattoo designs, and I thought it was really cute, and it was hilarious Bucky's butt tattoo. I just really fell in love with the fic right away, and I couldn't stop reading it, and I just hope that other people enjoy it too ❤️
Move over, Cinderella, and take your glass slippers with you. Steve doesn't need them to find his true love when he has butt tattoos!
Thank you for reccing this, anon. It sounds fantastic! xD

When Steve wakes from the ice he's disoriented and panicked. The Tattoo on his right arm of a blue star only confuses him further. As time goes on, he becomes too busy with adapting to the 21st century and aliens to care about the mysterious tattoo. That is until a second one appears.
After losing his left arm in an accident on a research expedition in his final year of college, Bucky enrolls into the Stark Industries Experimental Prosthetics Program and is fitted with a metal arm that brandishes a red star. His buddy Gabe works in a tattoo shop and likes to use Bucky as his practice canvas. After Bucky got the metal arm, Gabe thinks it would be funny to have a matching blue star inked onto Bucky's right arm.
While performing a check up on Bucky's arm, Tony notices Bucky's tattoos match the ones that have been mysteriously appearing on Steve's skin and makes the connection.When Bucky gets a tattoo it appears in the exact same place on Steve's body. The two are connected. The question is: How and Why?

Essential listening, Babies.
I cannot emphasize how formative this record in particular (and the Firesign Theater guys in general) was, as well as seeing all the Monty Python episodes on PBS, and watching all the Python films as they came out, all of these...all were essential to my sense of comedy and humor. Robin Williams' stream of consciousness style came after these guys.
The "Nick Danger, Third Eye" old radio show program parody that is "Side 2" on the record is a MASTERPIECE of current-events comedy. There is an entire shtick built around a coupla songs on the Beatles' White Album...it's pure gold.
The Nick Danger side also has great fun with the old Foley Artist sound effects. "If you're so smart, why don't you pick your cues faster? Better get 'em up out of the celophane before they scorch!"
Hell, I could go on…LISTEN!

How did you get your first job in animation. Specifically in storyboarding
Industry Q
Ooooooh my first storyboard gig....hm, technically it would have been for the Nick Artist Program since I was a storyboard trainee which I go into detail in this previous ask. But I never told the story how I got my first revisionist job after the Program. Sadly, it's not as eventful as getting into Marvel or the Nick Artist Program. But I'm willing to share haha. - So around April/May of 2020, the Nick Artist Program (which I will call NAP for the rest of this post 'cause it's too long to type haha) was gearing up to place the trainees onto productions once our 6 month training period was up. For those who don't know, NAP is a 6 month training program at Nickelodeon where you get trained in your respective track (Storyboard, General Design, CG) by being assigned to a production and a mentor. Normally, NAP trainees get hired after the 6 months by their assigned production or a completely different production if there is an availability (recruitment usually helps with this transition). However, there are instances that trainees don't get hired and move on to a different studio. I am one of those instances. So at the time, I had learned that Rugrats (the production I was assigned to) didn't have an opening for a revisionist anytime soon. So my mentor and I worked together to find another production I could jump on. After asking around, I managed to get a test for the Baby Shark show over at Nick Jr. It was the only production that was looking for revisionists because they were using Adobe Flash and not Storyboard Pro. I knew Flash so I took the test....and I got offered the job. The only thing was....I just didn't feel excited to work on Baby Shark. By no means I'm trying to downplay Baby Shark. If that's the type of show you wanna work on, go for it. But I just knew it wasn't for me. Sure, I would have a steady paycheck and job security for more than a year (yeah preschool don't play y'all). But my heart wasn't in the project when I was taking the test. So, I sat down with my mentor and told him how I felt. I apologized so many times 'cause I felt like I wasted his time and effort...and I was really torn about not wanting a job that didn't speak to me as an artist. And in that moment, he actually praised me for being honest not just to him but to myself as an artist. Sometimes...
Sometimes it's hard to say no to a job. You don't know where the paycheck is coming from, you got bills to pay, living becomes more and more expensive by the second. Sometimes you feel like you can't risk saying no because you have to survive. So you take what you can get, hustle while still trying get to where you want to be. But it's also okay to not say yes to the first thing that approaches you. Often times when it happens once it will happen again and it keep going. Of course, I didn't really learn this lesson wholeheartedly until a year later when I was hired to work at Marvel (you can read that story in this previous ask). But it still felt good to hear that it's okay to pursue projects that will challenge you creatively and make you excited. Sometimes we gotta work that one job just for the paycheck. But as an artist, you deserve to work on projects that bring you joy and growth. So, after that I finished the Program and left Nickelodeon. Even though it should have been a scary moment, I remember feeling at peace with my decision and just hit the ground running again with applying. I did it before and I can do it again haha. It wasn't until 2-3 weeks after finishing NAP that I received an email from Titmouse about if I'd be interested interviewing for a revisionist position. I agreed and the show turned out to be Star Trek: Lower Decks and I got to speak with Barry Kelly (Supervising Director) and Benjamin Kaltenecker (Line Producer, and yes my Voltron fans it's that Kaltenecker). We ended talking 30 minutes over the scheduled time since we were having so much fun chatting about Star Trek, anime, animation in general! Apparently, they found my website online and thought I would be a good fit so they requested an interview. I wanna say 1-2 days after the interview I got an offer to work on the show and that's how I ended up at Titmouse for almost 2 years haha. That pretty much sums up how I got my first storyboard (revisionist) gig after NAP and I'm sorry it's not has grand as Marvel haha. But I think that experience taught me a lot about how I should allow myself to be creatively satisfied in my day job. Granted, now that it's been 3 months since I've been laid off from Marvel (as of this post) I do work a bunch of freelance gigs to just pay my bills. But sometimes it be like that. Though going forward, I hope I'll continue to work on productions that excite me and push me to improve. I hope that answered your question!

RICHARD KERN, TORONTO, 1988
Richard Kern's career has been remarkable to watch from the perspective of someone who met him briefly for a portrait session, after a screening of his films in the backroom club where I usually saw and photographed bands. Kern emerged from New York's East Village with a zine and later a series of films that were aggressively provocative, back when this was still acceptable subject matter for artists. I'd already seen an evening of his films - a program that included Fingered and The Right Side of My Brain - and it was pretty indelible. But we were all edgelords back in those pre-grunge days, and this sort of overtly offensive stuff was celebrated, especially if it offended the right people.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Richard Kern and his colleagues in what got called the Cinema of Transgression - which included filmmakers like Nick Zedd, Jon Moritsugu, Beth B, Kembra Pfahler, David Wojnarowicz and others - were an obvious tributary to the underground and indie rock scene, especially when musicians like Henry Rollins and Lydia Lunch would appear in Kern's films. Their whole "fuck you if you don't like it" aesthetic was a natural fit with bands like the Butthole Surfers, Jesus Lizard, Big Black, Poison Idea, Pussy Galore and so many others. So it was natural that we'd do a feature on Kern for the alternative music monthly I worked for when he showed up to ask questions after an evening of his films, with my friend Tim assigned to write the piece while I got to do the pictures. I showed up with my Mamiya C330 and my flash, umbrella and light stand and photographed Kern simply, sitting on a chair in front of the movie screen on the stage at the Rivoli where I usually saw bands.
Tumblr media
What I didn't know at the time was that my Richard Kern portraits would be my last ever job for Nerve magazine, where I'd been developing as a photographer (no pun intended) for over two years. The story Tim and I handed in would be laid out on flats but never saw publication, as money troubles (and some personal ones) unceremoniously ended Nerve magazine after five years. This was effectively the end of my apprenticeship as a photographer; if I wanted to make a living at this, I had to seriously start looking for work at "real" magazines. I'm not sure if anyone ever saw these portraits of Richard Kern; they probably didn't get published anywhere until I posted a few on my old blog several years ago.
With all that in mind I'm still rather pleased with my portraits of Kern: they have a starkness and simplicity I was striving for (what my friend Chris Buck recently referred to as a "clunky honesty"). You didn't have to know that Richard Kern would end up with a career as a celebrated, arty pornographer, but it wouldn't surprise you. He has, in the decades since I took these photos, published over two dozen books with titles like XXModels, Digital Kern, Shot by Kern, New York Girls and Extra High, sometimes for quality imprints like Abrams and Taschen. Even more improbably he has survived the scythe of cancel culture, perhaps by hiding in plain sight.

I forgot all about this
First "Underground Music" Program Heard Far Away into Cuba
Once upon a time in 1966 there was a 50,000 watt AM radio station in Little Rock, AR called KAAY and they ran a late night show called Beaker Street, which featured a blend of progressive rock, blues, and psychedelic music from the 1960s and 1970s. Beaker Street pre-dated the FM radio boom of the mid-1970s and foretold the rise of album-oriented Rock and Classic rock formats.
In 1966, Beaker Street hosted by Clyde Clifford was the first underground music program broadcast regularly on a commercial AM radio station in the central US. Over the years, Beaker Street became an iconic program and is widely regarded as a pioneer in the field of progressive rock radio. For fans of Beaker Street, many album cuts became favorites over the years, including songs which were generally not available on either 45-rpm records or LP albums.
In early 1967 Beaker Street was a staple for adherents to the burgeoning underground communities in the upper Mid-West especially in Des Moines, Iowa, where it was the only access to Dr. Demento and Firesign Theatre. The strong nighttime signal of 50,000 watt, clear channel KAAY meant that it was possible to regularly listen to the station's nighttime programming in a wide area of the midwest and south.
Beaker Street attracted a legion of fans across the Midwest with its pioneering format, which featured long album cuts from rock artists who otherwise would not get commercial radio airplay outside of large cities with freeform or progressive rock stations. KAAY's late-night "footprint" gained fans as far west as Wyoming and Montana, north to the Dakotas and Manitoba and south as far as New Orleans and into Florida. This strong broadcast signal enabled Beaker Street to deliver the music of the late 1960s counterculture to many smaller cities and towns in America, where such music could not otherwise be heard over the air waves.
The KAAY nighttime signal was so strong that young people in Havana City and in other places in Cuba were able to receive it clearly. In the late 1970s, music sung in English was restricted by the Communist Government. Cuban radio stations were allowed to devote only about 20% of their time broadcasting music sung in English, so many young people used to listen to American radio stations as a response to that limitation, and the KAAY was one of the most popular.
Radio theater also made a comeback on Beaker Street, in half-hour or hour-long segments called Beaker Theatre; sometimes utilizing serious (and occasionally not-so serious) re-workings of old radio serial scripts, voiced by the Beaker Players; sometime playing the recordings of the comedy group Firesign Theatre, especially the "Nick Danger - Third Eye" series of skits. During the run of Beaker Street, the Firesign Theatre actually made several live appearances on the show.
Clyde Clifford continued to host Beaker Street until his retirement in 2018, after which the program was temporarily suspended. Today, Beaker Street continues to be a beloved program for music fans in the Little Rock area and beyond, and its legacy as a groundbreaking radio show remains an important part of the history of progressive rock and radio broadcasting.

Rules: Make a 24 hour poll with the names of your WIPs, let it run, then work for 10 minutes for every vote the winner receives.
Thank you for the tag, @angelcasendgame!!!!! I am not sure I will be able to work on anything very soon just because life came after me again, and turns out I'm gonna be moving over the next month or so, but I really do hope I can find time!!
None of these have names yet lol. I put the SPN ones first, but technically I've been trying to break my writer's block by returning to The Great Gatsby (It's all Nick/Gatsby btw, just realized that might not be immediately evident) with limited success. It's always come easier for me. But all of this is stuff I do actively want to work on.
Ohh I don't know who to tag. I'm sure everyone in this circle has been tagged already, and most of the people I talk to regularly enough to know about their projects have more or less left Tumblr... I do absolutely want to pass this your way though, @antique-ro-man!! (It's Wes, btw!) I also wanna tag @heyfagbutt! And then anyone else who sees this and wants to participate, I also encourage it!! This is such a cool idea :D !!
Long, rambling explanations down here ⬇⬇
I think the name is pretty explanatory? The gist of it is they go after the same guy and become pseudo-enemies but they keep bumping into each other like this and decide to work together after a while 👍 this is a really bad hook LMAO. Anyway, I'm trying to build on the idea that they work REALLY well together when they do it intentionally but fail comically when they don't.
Pretty much what it says on the tin as well. No Supernatural AU. Dean goes to a community college to get a certification to help with his work elsewhere, but Cas, a figure drawing model, catches him drawing (which Dean's been doing on and off as a hobby) and tries to get him to sign up for the arts program.
I technically only have a summary of this, and I'm not entirely sure if I will write it all out, but I do want to at least put more time into the development before I dedicate to giving up on it bc of scope lol. I just have SUCH a soft spot for fake relationship AUs. Also, I just found out that while I have FINALLY aged into independent FAFSA eligibility, I am once again tax bracketed out. Anyway, financial abuse is real and I want to project my suffering onto Dean. Also immigrant Cas, but I haven't decided where I want him to be from yet. I think this has a lot of potential for some pretty hefty character redesigns too so it's also compelling to me from that angle. I guess I could also write it for TGG, but I did initially think of it for Destiel, so.
I don't know how to explain this one very well except that I had unhelpfully written "poolboy au" in my notes and then proceeded to forget what the hell I meant. This fic was an attempt to resurrect that but ended up being a funky modern West Coast re-imagining where Gatsby can't even "make it" as much as he wants to, and Nick can't find a place to live except for a less-than-legally rented pool house. It's not meant to be a full rewrite or anything though.
Uhhh yeah, I'm keeping the details private for this one ahaha but that's just because it wasn't supposed to be a big deal and I told a friend she would see what it was when it was done...like oh god probably a month ago at this point... My original scope for this was quite small, but research for it, indecision, and a nasty case of writer's block that I've had for nearly a year now have kept development a bit slow. Hopefully, I'll finish it before the year comes to a close.
I also don't know how to explain this one well other than "after being rejected by Daisy (Canon Divergent), Gatsby attempts to buy his way into a bewildered Nick's heart. Though the fic is from Nick's POV, Gatsby's just had his worldview shattered and is in a bit of denial, but instead of pursuing Daisy harder, he channels all of that energy into Nick (though he's not really sure why he's doing it at first). I wasn't sure what to put up at the top because I absolutely don't want my code name for this public at least until it's done LMAO.

The Quarry headcanons
one big mix about everyone and everything
Spoiler alert, of course.
English is not my first language, so I apologize for all mistakes.
Tumblr media
- Ryan only shares headphones with people he trusts. Ryan suggests you listen to music/podcasts from his headphones? he loves you.
- On the first day of camp, Dylan created a playlist for Ryan that he just loved and listened to whenever he could.
- I wondered at first what an Australian was doing at a summer camp in New York. So I looked up the origin of the name Furcillo. I found out that this surname is popular in the usa among people of Italian origin. My hc therefore is: Nick has Italian roots but was born and raised in Australia. As for his presence in America, I added that his sister is living there and he always wanted to live with her.
- As for Nick's siblings: Nick is the youngest of 7 siblings. I found out that his actor has 6 siblings and in my opinion, that fits Nick's character so well.
- Nick has sight defect and usually wears harry potter like glasses but he switched them to lenses for the summer camp because he was scared that people would make fun of him. (that hc is also bc of Nick's actor)
- Nick has a lazy eye
- I have some hcs about the origin of the characters also here they are:
- Nick - Italy
- Abigail - Sweden
- Emma - USA
- Jacob - USA
- Kaitlyn - China/Thailand
- Dylan - Czech Republic
- Ryan - Germany
- Laura - USA
- Max - USA
- Dylan was obsessed with aliens as a child. (He still is)
- Ryan loves podcasts. he is obsessed with them and listens to them 24/7.
- Dylan was a quiet, shy kid at school.
- Dylan loves cartoons and comics.
- Dylan is not only interested in quantum physics but also in paranormal things.
- Dylan wanted to be a ghost hunter as a child. The reason was the movie Ghost Busters, which he loves. His phone ringtone is theme song from this film.
- Dylan is a fan of The Walking Dead. Hence, the first thing that came to his mind after seeing werewolf's bite on Nick/after the werewolf bit his hand was to cut off the limb.
- Ryan is biromantic asexual.
- Dylan uses he/they.
- Dylan is demisexual biromantic or demisexual homoromantic (I don't know what a canon sexuality of dylan is so I'll leave two options)
- Laura is bisexual.
- Emma is bisexual with preference in women.
- Nick is the type of talented kid who has been praised by every adult and shown as an example, but doesn't know what he really likes.
- There is one thing, however, that Nick likes more than the others. It is cooking and baking.
- When Nick was a child he wanted to be a baker. But he didn't tell anyone about it because he was afraid that someone would make fun of him for it.
- Emma has wanted to be popular since childhood. Before being an influencer, she wrote fan fiction. This is how she discovered her love for writing.
- Emma was not popular as a child. she always stood aside. She decided to change that when she went to high school.
- Abigail is from a family of artists.
- Abigail loves reading.
- Abi also loves to write letters.
- Abigail also loves calligraphy. She has always been the type of person you take notes from. Then she got into it more and now it has become one of her hobbies.
- Laura has wanted to be a doctor since she was a child. However, with time she realised that she loved animals and wanted to be a vet.
- Jacob has a terrible sens od direction.
- I wanted to somehow explain to myself the fact that Kaitlyn was so good with guns, so a hc was born in my head that there was some kind of woodsman in her family and she was very interested in that as a child.
- Abigail designed her tattoo herself.
- Nick loves the survival programs.
- Kaitlyn is interested in photography.
- Jacob is a very emotional and sensitive person.
- Kaitlyn and Jacob were very popular at school. However, Kaitlyn was much more popular and everyone liked her.
- Kaitlyn is the type of person that both teachers and students love.
- Kaitlyn's best friend since childhood was Jacob. No one has ever become more liked by her than this idiot.
- I can bet that Jacob and Kaitlyn's friendship started when she saved him from some older kids. Maybe someone took his toy or something and he started crying and Kaitlyn wanted to comfort him.
- Most of Nick's siblings are sisters (maybe even all of them. I like to think Nicky has 6 sisters I don't know why lmao)
- Jacob is the class clown type and everyone takes advantage of the fact that he does before he thinks. Kaitlyn acts as his voice of reason.

If LATGBG gets picked up by Nick (at least that's what I hope from you going to their artist program), are you fearful you'd get screwed like most other modern Nicktoons?
Hypothetically, yes! There are a ton of Nicktoons who haven’t gotten their chance to shine in the spotlight; and it’s been made even more clear with the current animation climate. I’d at least hope in the scenario it does get screwed over, I’m able to obtain the rights back! But as I hope to keep Lumi independent (as much as I can to, anyway) that won’t ever be the case! Even if it’s not as watched as many other cartoons, that’s okay! I just want people to enjoy it!
