I'm sure Rouge could, as with other characters. But it comes back to which ones and why? It is her style or required for her line of work? Does she draw the line with specific ones or isn't as skilled with one gadget compared to another?
It's a matter of what the gameplay calls for. (If Tails Adventure and Sky Patrol are anything to go by, a Tails focus game is likely not going to play the same as those who follow Sonic's main gamestyle. If flight the main aspect, the game will focus on that. If gadgets are, it will be on that. Both? A compromise would have to made, but I'm sure they could get it to work.) If you ever heard of "Rachet and Clank", it probably gives a better visual of what I mean for this hypothetical. Spyro too, though more flying than gadgets.
I would say Rouge mainly has experience and stamina over the youngsters; but coming down to what they use their flight capabilities for; Tails being air support and Charmy stated to be a tracker. Plus Charmy does use his stinger and Cream uses Cheese as a projectile. (The fox likely can't beat Rouge toe-to-toe, but I'm sure he'd cause enough trouble for her to not consider him easy pickings next time.) In fairness, we don't really get much time with Prime Tails. {Not the first time a Tails has used a RC device either} It mainly Nine and the other counterparts instead; who live in rather hostile places.
I checked to be sure, and yeah, there is one flight level: The first Speedy boss. There are places to land [in case you get hit], but the stamina bar is completely removed here, as the goal is to get to the top while avoiding Speedy.
Honestly, it's a concept that's not used enough. I can totally buy him coming from the grocery or tool shop, using his tails to carry as much bags and supplies as possible. (Although not techinally the fur, when Nine takes off with the shard; the one Sonic just got absorbed into, you can see it wrapped in his organic tails. So yeah, I say it stands a good chance of coming back.)
You are correct. (Hmm, well, Amy was already shown to throw hammers in Origins.{Which funnily enough again, was shown in X before. The episode Sonic finally comes back from Chris' world.} I say it has a fair shot of sticking. A little less certain with Tails, but I think it could work in Frontiers. Part of me feels that a tweaked version of the Avatar's Wispon gameplay from Forces would fit him well. We'll see what the DLC does for both.)
Hmm, I can buy Tails being interested in history. Especially if it helps him better understand of what's going on at the moment or could be applied later. (Also, I think he just likes learning new things. That being said, it doesn't mean he'll be an expert of something overnight. Hence why he consulted Professor Pickles during Unleashed.)
I feel like the Rouge conversation got a bit away from the point I was originally trying to make, haha =_=' (it's ok but I'm just gonna drop it here)
I heard of Ratchet and Clank but have never played it myself. I looked up some gameplay footage and it looks pretty cool! (Longing for a Tails solo game intensifies)
I know, I know, drones are just so... lame :( I'm still holding out hope that we'll get to see more flashbacks with Prime Tails, I really like him from what little we've seen of him even though he's written so differently from probably any version of Tails I've seen before (except for maybe in some fics haha)
Yep! I've noticed that thing with Nine! (Part of my headcanon is that Tails's ability to control his Tails like that helps him fly (a little bit); I don't have a clear idea of the details, but the basic one is that he's able to position the fur of his tails in such a way that it makes slightly easier for them to function as helicopter blades. At this point it's instinctual for him, but if you're not Tails you might have a bit of trouble figuring out how to do it)
Yeah, I guess we'll see.
Man you mentioned the wispons and it made me think – we haven't seen Tails actually inventing anything for a while, huh? Unless something completely slipped my mind, the last time he had a new invention was Unleashed (the Miles Electric), and it's also the last time we've seen him with a new vehicle (Tornado-1. Geez. The Sonic Boom tv show made fun of his inability to come up with names and I kinda see where they were coming from here lmao). Mannnn. We can talk forever about the loss of his fighting abilities, but he hasn't exactly been shining in other areas either.
Yeah, it definitely doesn't seem... ooc for him to be into history, it just doesn't seem as connected to his usual interests. (But I guess history is inescapable in any field of work) Though Tails also has his own interest in chaos emeralds. (And you know if Eggman keeps summoning ancient evils (and Shadow) it's nice to at least have a general idea of what's going on. Or at least who to ask haha)

Bloody Mess
[Ralph Lamont X Female Reader]
AN: ok 1st of all this got Nasty and also I wanted to try a different format
Warning(s): +17 | Hemophilia, unprotected sex (wrap it to tap it), mentions of abuse, dead body (he deserved it), little rough, sub!Ralph Lamont, cum eating, hair pulling. Masterlist
Tumblr media
Alright so I was dragging my feet to watch the episode of Blue Bloods with Alex Brightman in it and I'm glad I did because I got some cool ideas. I don't watch cop centric shows anymore but I thought Ralph would be a cool Italian mob type: turns out he's some dickhead twitch gamer who murdered a girl for stupid reasons I can't remember. 
So fuck cannon, he's a 90's mobman now. 
**YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED**
Imagine Ralph Lamont is a one man clean up crew. He's the go-to guy for any jobs gone wrong, gone messy. Body needs disappearing without a trace? Ralphie's your guy. 
Kinda like The Wolf from Pulp Fiction (Tarentino, 1994) 
Hydrochloric acid, latex, bleach, bone saw: all he needs is a few hours and it's like there was never a brutal murder here. (Sometimes this is accomplished with a distraction, a staged robbery or shoot out a few counties over if there were too many witnesses)
So Mr. Clean I mean Mr. Lamont gets a job at your home. 
It's a cute little 3rd floor apartment with a Mr. and Mrs. Andersen living in it. 
Mr. Andersen is– pardon, was– a bookkeeper for Dr. Coolidge (friend of Ralphie's; they both like sterile environments), so it's a favor. Dr. Coolidge mentioned over the phone he expected something "like this" to happen sooner or later. He asked Ralphie to be delicate with you– the late Mrs. Andersen. 
You buzz him in without a word. 
He finds you leaning against the kitchen island, putting out the cherry of your cigarette. You put it out right on Mr. Andersen's ugly yellow tie (or he thinks it used to be yellow)
It's a fucking blood bath in here. Mr. Andersen was a bleeder. Red splashes and streaks cover the counters, the toaster, the oven door, the fridge. There are bloody footprints on the floor and an honest-to-go pool of it dripping off the counter right next to Andersen's final resting place. You left the steak knife in his throat and he must have sat down in that island chair never to get back up again. His eyes are listless and grey. 
Ralphie walks around you, careful to keep you in his peripheral just in case you weren't done "expressing yourself." The linen of your frock is stained, your feet are bare, and your eye is black and swollen. Some of your bruises are old. 
In his sweep, he finds three bloodied knives in the sink: a bread knife, a fillet knife, and a cleaver. 
"Mrs. Andersen," he says as he turns back to you, "if you wouldn't mind moving to the bedroom for me? You've made quite a mess and I'd hate for you to have to see anymore violence." 
"You gonna fight him for my honor? He's already dead." 
Ralphie chuckles. "No ma'am. I'm gonna cut him up into pieces so the gallons of acid I brought with me dissolve his corpse efficiently. I'll need to borrow your bathtub for that, and you don't want to try getting cleaned up after the fact. It's no good for the skin." 
He's circled around the white marble kitchen island to stand before you. He's calm. The smile on his face is easy and it soothes you. You drop your eyes and catch an unexpected sight. 
"Are you…" you wipe at your mouth a accidentally leave a crusted red streak. "Do you get off on this?" 
Mr. Lamont shifts his stance; no doubt you've seen the light tent in his pants. "What can I say except I admire your handiwork, Mrs. Andersen. I imagine you may have wanted him to die slowly and painfully. Was it all that you hoped for?" 
You turn sheepish (incredible, really, surrounded by such admirable evidence of your own rage) and nod. "It was…" 
"Glad to hear," he says softly. "Now, if you wouldn't mind..." 
He places a gentle hand on your shoulder but you step away from the island and change his distant, guiding gesture into an intimate embrace. He looks at you in surprise when he feels you wrap your hands around his back beneath his blazer. 
"I seem to suffer a similar affliction," you tell him and press yourself into his erection. "You wouldn't mind giving a girl a hand, would you?" 
Well it certainly wasn't part of the job, but he was eager to please. 
“As you like it,” he whispered, pulling you into a soft kiss. 
Your blood sings in your veins. You’ve just killed your no good louse of a husband and now you’ve got your tongue down a stranger’s throat. And a handsome one too, so polite (you were still wary of him but if Dr. Coolidge sent him perhaps he couldn’t be all bad)
You tug at his tie as if it would make him any closer to being inside of you. The smell of copper is a never ending assault on your senses, but you also smell wood smoke beneath it on his collar. 
Mr. Lamont’s cheeky hands find your hips and a second later he’s helping you sit up on the kitchen counter. You can see your husband from the corner of your eye, his mouth hanging open in eternal anguish. It just serves to intensify your lust for life. 
You give Mr. Lamont's belt a meaningful tug and slip back down to the floor to turn around
You mean to ask him to help you with your zipper, but instead you feel his lips at your neck just before his hand grips the back of your head and pushes you down, face first into the counter inches away from the pool of blood. 
Your hand slides through the sticky essence and you feel Lamont draw your skirts up and your underthings down. 
You gasp with a shriek as you feel something hot slide up your slit and over your other hole. Did he just lick you??? 
The living man growls in what sounds like pleasure, pulling at his sleek tie just enough to loosen the constriction at his throat and then he’s shucking his pants down. 
You’re not sure if you want him to work you up slowly or take what he wants but you hold your breath and let him lead. You’re far from disappointed when he massages the meat of your rear and leans over your back. 
“You can still change your mind, doll,” he whispers, “not too late to go shower and forget today.” 
You consider it but you don’t want to forget. You want the feeling of Georgie’s life slipping through your fingers to soothe you to sleep every night. You want to carry the pleasure of giving your former husband a reason for his rampant jealous streak and know that for once there was nothing he could do about it. You want this living man to make this strange and terrifying day to end in bliss and solidify everything like lightning striking sand.  
You lift your head and run your dripping red hand through his pristine locks. He locks eyes with you and a shiver runs through him as a droplet lands on his nose. “I don’t want to stop, Mr. Lamont. Now be a good guest and fuck me.” 
“Call me Ralphie please,” he breathes, and he’s all too happy to comply. You feel his cock slip between your folds and as he enters you as he promised, you lick your lips and taste cherry and rust. 
“Ralphie… Ralphie…” He loves the sound of his name on your lips, the squishing sound of your lovely womanhood taking everything he gives it. He puts a single hand on your hip leans back to take it all in: the bloody kitchen, the stiff, the lecherous moans, the sweat making his shirt stick to his back, the misleading cleanliness of the back of your dress…
Mr. Lamont runs his hand through the slime in his hair but that blood is already drying. He splashes it into the pool next to you and leaves a bloody print on your back, holding you down to the counter by your shoulder and driving his hips into you harder. 
He can hear you’re close by the crescendo of your voice. He’s close too, and ever the gentleman, he slips out of you and flips you onto your back, pulling up a dainty leg in your daze so he can re enter your heat like he belonged there. He’s resumed fucking you in mere seconds and he likes this position because now he can see your eyes roll back into your head. 
“Where do you want it,” he grunts out. He’s trying not to come but he doesn’t have the willpower to slow down. He needs your answer, and fast...
For a moment your eyes go hard. Mr. Lamont gulps and worries for a second you’re going to pull the steak knife out of your husband’s throat to slit his, but instead you take a hold of his hair and pull his head back into an awkward but commanding angle. 
He feels your breath ghost over his neck. “My house, my rules. Make me see stars and I’ll tell you when to stop.” 
You sink your teeth into his neck and reach down to circle your pearl. Mr. Lamont does as he’s told, hissing and grunting but he holds off his release to give you exactly what you want. 
He has to stop thrusting when you start those delicious rhythmic tremors. He has to hold you up as you throw your head back and lose your balance, dependent on him to keep you upright. He takes over rubbing your pearl with a similar pressure as the one he watched you give yourself, and eased you back down from heaven into the bloody abyss on earth. 
For a second Ralph fears you’ve got too much control. What will he do if you tell him not to come at all? He’ll do as you command, of course, but how cruel were you going to treat him now that you’ve gotten what you wanted? He’s seen your handiwork all around, remember that. 
But your eyes turn soft and he’s worried you’re about to cry, that is until he watches you slip down to your bruised knees and ease your dress down your shoulders. Now you look positively debauched, breast bared and eyes turned up with a pleading look. 
“Finish on me, Ralphie.” You bit your lip and hope to god he’s still listening. “Right over my heart.” 
Ralph Lamont has never whimpered before. He’s doing it right now. How the fuck did he end up like this? 
He strokes his cooling cock, taking everything in from his position above you and feeling his drumming heartbeat in the throbbing of his member. The only word going through his head is yes
Ralphie gives one of you tits a squeeze, then gets an idea
It's a little awkward trying to get you to understand, but you catch on and there's this eager glow in your eyes
You help him slot his cock between your breasts and continue to jerk him off, using your hands as necessary to assist
He's not far now seeing you-- feeling you like that
Ralphie comes with a groan, a white rope painting your chin and splattering cockeyed down over your neck and onto the tops of your breasts. He has to catch himself on the counter as the next rope dribbles lower, half slipping into your cleavage and the rest staining the neckline of your ruined dress. His hips jerk once, twice. You let him slip from your embrace and twist your hand over the head just to milk whatever he has left into your mouth, and then he collapses into a heap beside you. 
You let him catch his breath for a minute, then grasp his jaw and turn his head towards you. You’re looking down your nose at him again and his vulnerable eyes beg for more. 
“Now look what you’ve done,” you gesture to the milky essence covering your skin in mock annoyance. “Clean it up like a good boy.” 
Eyes half lidded, Ralphie leans towards you in a trance, tongue swiping over every pearlescent trail and stray droplet until you’re ‘clean’ again
Completely spent, the man rests his head against your shoulder. Your hands come up to cradle him, stroking his matted hair as if you've not a care in the world
When he's ready he helps you stand up and straightens his clothes
Instead of helping you back into yours he strips you of them
"These will have to be burned, I'm afraid," he tells you. "Go on now, take a nice long bath and I'll call Kevin to see if he can take you somewhere for the night
You have to clear the tub and run it again to get truly clean. All of that grime builds up thick on your skin while you were having your acts of catharsis. 
You slip into a satin frock in your favorite color and let Kevin whisk you away to a movie for the night
As you fix your earring in the rearview mirror, you catch sight of Ralph Lamont on your balcony. He waves down at you leaning against the ledge and unbothered by the state of his clothes. From this far down, it doesn't look like blood
But you know better, don't you?

Always be yours (Pt 2/2)
Tumblr media
Warnings? Demon! Dean, mentions of cheating, sex, killing and lots of cursing
You sat just outside of the armory flat on the cool tile floor with your eyes closed. You couldn't bare to walk through that door. It had been weeks since that night you spent wrapped in Dean's arms. You told Sam you'd seen Dean, that he had sought you out. You didn't tell him everything that had happened or that Dean knew what had happened between the two of you.
You weren't praying for the simple fact that you knew with the exception of Cas no one was listening that would care. Sam had left to get the blessed blood after carting Dean inside the bunker. You'd stayed out of sight the entire time. Now you had to face Dean and watch him go through what you knew would be an excruciating process to flush the demon out of him.
"Are you ok?" Sam's voice drew you out of your thoughts. You opened your eyes to see him standing about a foot away from you "Just trying to get my head on right Sam" he nodded with a sympathetic smile "You know you don't have to go in there yet. This is gonna take a while" "I can't do that Sam. I can't turn away, he wouldn't do it to me if positions were reversed nor would he do it to you"
He held his good hand out but you shook your head and climbed to your feet "Let's do this"
--------
You took a deep breath as you watched Sam splash holy water and repeat the Latin that would concentrate the ground for the process to work. Dean hadn't looked your way yet and you weren't sure if you were relieved or hurt. 
You watched Sam draw up the blood in a syringe. Dean eyed it as well finally meeting your eyes before saying "Sammy you know I hate shots" Sam shrugged "I hate demons" you flinched when Dean snarled at Sam before Sam splashed holy water on him and injected the blood into his arm right below the mark.
Dean's eyes never left yours, a groan of pain leaving him before he shook it off. "Look Dean there's a lot more doses to go. You could make it a lot easier on yourself" Sam told him then turned to walk off. He stopped where you were glued to the floor staring at Dean. "Are you ok?" 
Dean spoke up "Oh Y/N's fine alone with me black eyes and all. Isn't that right sweetheart?" A flicker of a smile flashed across his face and your stomach flipped. Sam looked between the two of you visibly confused before Dean smirked "Oh she didn't get around to that Sammy? Yeah me and her had a damn good time in Colorado"
"Y/N?" Sam's voice wasn't accusatory just simply asking. You stared past him at Dean "Yeah I fucked him that night Sam" "A few times" Dean added and you felt your face warm from embarrassment. "Come on" Sam grabbed your arm to pull you from the room and you heard a slight growl from Dean before the two of you made it out into the hallway.
-------
"You didn't tell me you had sex with him" Sam's voice was barely a whisper. You followed him down the hall to the kitchen "Didn't exactly know how to throw that into casual conversation" 
You sat down at the table holding your head in your hands. Sam walked to the fridge then sat a bottle of water down in front of you "It's understandable Y/N. You love him" you slowly raised your eyes and he nearly choked on the water in his mouth "How did he find out?" You shrugged "Crowley somehow? I guess"
You normally didn't hear Sam curse a whole lot but the string of words that fell from his mouth would've made a sailor blush. "Shit you shouldn't be here then" you shook your head "I'm not fucking leaving you alone with him Sam. He won't hurt me, there's still something inside of him stopping that whether it's the Cain and Collette thing. You on the other hand, our real Dean he'd never forgive himself if he did something to you. The least I owe you both is staying through whatever happens next"
He reached across the table and gently grabbed your hand and gave it a light squeeze "You're still my best friend, you know that. We'll get him back and deal with the fall out of everything that happened" you swallowed hard then said "If we get him back Sam, I'm leaving. I know Dean...seeing me and you in close quarters he won't handle it well and I won't be what tears you two apart" "and if he doesn't want you to leave?" He asked in almost a whisper and you laughed sadly "Then miracles really do happen"
-------
The second dose you didn't go in for and there were no words exchanged between Sam and Dean. You stood in the hallway listening to Dean in pain and fought everything inside of you that screamed to run to his side.
------
The third dose you walked in behind Sam. Dean met your eyes "For all you know he's killing me sweetheart" "Or you're screwing with him and me" you replied trying to not let your heart get in the way of your brain.
"Besides the lore didn't say anything about an exception to the cure" Sam added and Dean scoffed "The lore..hunters...men of letters. What a load of crap it all is" when you nor Sam said anything in return he tilted his head at Sam "Oh you got nothing?"
You shook your head at Sam trying to remind him that this was the demon part talking not Dean. You were relieved when he said "What do you want me to debate you? This isn't even the real you I'm talking to" Dean turned towards you "Y/N did I feel real enough to you? Hell come here and give me a kiss baby" you turned and walked out without a word and heard him laugh before turning back to Sam.
--------
You tried to call Cas but he didn't answer so after a moment you walked back into the room. You heard Dean say "Crowley told me all about it. So let me ask which one of us is really a monster?"
You walked further into the room and cut your eyes at Sam "What's he mean? What did you do?" You knew both you and Sam had went to different extremes to find Dean but there were a few weeks you barely saw each other. "Oh she doesn't know..man that's rich"
"You two were trying to get a twenty on me and Crowley from any direction you could but Crowley didn't want to be found and no one showed when Sammy summoned so he found a way" you looked from one brother to the other "Sam?" He was looking at Dean who half smirked "Oh he would've liked to have gotten there before the deal went down but he didn't really care about poor ol Lester..did ya Sammy?"
It didn't take a lot to put together what you'd missed. "Oh Sam" Dean chuckled darkly "Yeah I killed Lester myself and his wife married that tattooed guy" "I never meant" Sam started but Dean cut him off "Who cares what you meant? That line between us and what we hunt ain't so clear is it? Wow you might actually be worse than me. I mean you found a guy at his lowest, used him and then it cost him his life and his soul. Nice work and Y/N here fucked us both so what does that say about her?"
You felt like you'd been slapped in the face when Dean threw those words at you. Sam injected another syringe of blood into Dean's neck and you tried with everything you had to not let yourself break before walking out the room. You could hear Dean asking Sam if he or you had the stomach to do what would be needed should the cure not work and felt your knees weaken at the mere thought.
-----
Sam found you in the map room staring blankly at the screen. "Hey, that's not really him" you raised your face and knew he saw the streaks of tears when you said "Isn't it?" You pushed away from the table when he took a step towards you and shook your head "I just need a minute" 
You walked past him to the room you'd been sleeping in. You sat down on the edge of the bed and looked over to the photo of you, Dean and Sam at Bobby's place that was leaned against the lamp next to the letter Dean had left that night. 
You knew all that was happening had been a possibility and the truth was any amount of heartbreak was worth getting Dean's eyes back permanently green. If that night was the last you got in his arms you'd be grateful for it if he just survived this cure.
-------
You wiped your tears and headed back to the armory. The moment you got to the doorway your heart dropped "SAM" you screamed running in to Dean's side. You stepped closer than you should've but his head was dropped down and you couldn't tell if he was breathing. "Baby, please wake up Dean. Come back to us please" you slapped his cheeks lightly and heard Sam come running in behind you "Is he ok?"
"Yeah if drowning in your own sweat while your blood boils is ok" Dean answered slowly opening his eyes and you hadn't realized just how close you were to him until that moment. "He could stop this darling. You know I'd never hurt you. Just make him stop" you quickly stepped away from him and shook your head "No. We want the real Dean back"
You knew Sam was drawing up another dose but Dean leveled you with his gaze "You think the real Dean is gonna be so forgiving? I mean at least I screwed strangers you on the other hand, my baby brother? That's low Y/N. I would've preferred you fucking Cas" 
"Well if you hate me at least you'll be human to do so" you replied then walked out hoping he didn't see the way your hands shook.
------
One minute you were walking back to the armory after making sure the outer door was unlocked for Cas then the next Sam was pulling you into a side hallway holding his hand over your mouth. "He's out" he mouthed and your eyes widened.
"What's the plan?" You whispered once he moved his hand. "C'MON SAMMY. DON'T YOU WANNA HANG OUT WITH YOUR BIG BROTHER" rang through the quiet air and you flinched. "We need to lock it down. Keys are in the map room" you nodded then pointed "I'll go left and make some noise for him to follow. You go right"
"Y/N..be careful" you half smiled "You too"
--------
You ran down the hall towards the bedrooms making sure to let your feet fall heavy. "Dean?" You called out hoping he'd come after you and not Sam. Sure enough you felt the air shift a half second before your back was shoved against a wall "Hey there beautiful. Where's Sammy?" He had one arm across your chest holding you in place while the other held a hammer.
Your eyes flicked towards it and he smiled "It's not for you. If I wanted to nail you there's better ways" you groaned at the fact that even murderous Demonic Dean had to make bad jokes. "I don't know" he nodded and moved forward catching your lips in a bruising kiss "I believe you but I don't need you getting in the way" 
You weren't sure what he meant until he shoved you roughly into a storage room and shut the door. "DEAN GOD DAMMIT DON'T DO THIS!" you pounded against the door and heard the key turn in the handle "Just calm down baby" was the last thing you heard before his footsteps disappeared down the hall.
-------
Painfully long minutes passed before the door slowly opened. You half expected it to be Dean covered in Sam's blood but let out a breath of relief when you saw it was Cas and flung yourself into his arms hugging him "Thank god" you muttered squeezing the angel who returned the hug fully. "Dean didn't hurt you, did he?" You shook your head "Just locked me in here so I wouldn't get in the way"
He grabbed your arm "Come on. Sam's fine but there's only two more doses to give Dean" you let Cas pull you to the armory trying to ignore the growing knot in your stomach.
--------
You stood between Sam and Cas while Dean slowly woke up. He looked between the three of you "You look worried" you nodded to Sam who splashed the Holy water onto Dean. He didn't even flinch "Welcome home Dean" Sam said with a relieved smile.
-------
You were sitting on the counter in the kitchen nursing a beer. You'd seen Sam when he got back with Dean's food and had told Cas goodbye before he left but you still couldn't face Dean. What he said had stuck with you. He may have cheated as well but it was with strangers and as a demon. You had slept with his brother of all people. You wouldn't want to be with you either.
-------
Hours passed. You saw Sam head to bed and slowly headed towards your own room. You stopped in front of Dean's door and almost knocked but thought better of it. The moment you went to step away though the door opened and you heard his voice "Y/N?" You turned around with a small smile "I just wanted to check on you" he nodded then glanced back into his room "You haven't been sleeping in here have you?"
You shook your head "I couldn't" you didn't know what else to say. Every time you'd tried to sleep in the bed you shared with him you'd ended up crying yourself to sleep. "Do you want to? I mean fuck I don't have a right to ask but will you just lay down with me? Let me hold you." You couldn't believe your ears but your mouth moved faster than your brain it seemed "Are you sure?"
He gave you a smirk that was a ghost of his usual one "I started the day as a demon and tried to kill my brother but you're asking me if I'm sure" you held your hand out and when he took it walked into the room pulling him behind you.
------
He shut the door then pulled you behind him to the bed. He sat down on the side of it and pulled you between his legs. You stood there with your hands on his shoulders just enjoying knowing you had your Dean back even if he decided he no longer wanted to be yours. "Are you scared of me Y/N?" He asked and that shocked you more than anything "What? No" he glanced down at his lap then raised his eyes to you playfully "You could be closer" 
You kicked your boots off then climbed onto his lap effectively straddling him. "I've missed you and not just the sex, this" he whispered burying his face in your neck. "Do you still love me?" You asked and he drew back to look you in the face "Yeah Sweetheart I still love you. Can you ever forgive me for everything I did?" "Are you still mine?" You asked and he kissed your neck lightly "I'll always be yours even if you don't want me"
You smiled and felt tears trying to sting your eyes "I've only ever wanted you Dean" he noticed the tears glistening in your eyes and gently wiped them away "Those women didn't mean anything. The mark and being a demon..it fucked me up and i didn't want to risk hurting you. I stayed away as long as I could but when Crowley told me that you and Sam.." he trailed off but his hands tightened around your waist. "It didn't mean anything to us but helping to keep each other sane and alive. I was hurt and lost and so was he…" Dean cut you off with a kiss and you melted into his touch.
When he pulled away he pushed your hair back out of your face "Can we call this a new start?" His hands had slid under your shirt and you felt his fingertips trailing across your bare skin. "Please" you all but whispered pulling him into another kiss.

Hii! I hope your still doing ships, could you do it with enhypen, tbz and treasure? If you don't mind ( if not, enhypen and treasure pls ) ^^
i'm an aries, a huge introvert, I like drawing and listening to music, sometimes I like to read ( mostly mangas ) or watch anime. I have a huge resting bitch face and I kinda have a cold personality bcuz I have trust issues with ppl and I dont wanna get hurt. I'm mostly alone, I like hanging out with myself, occasionally I do hangout with my classmates/ siblings. Oh and I love playing games ( video games/ board games I don't mind ) also my mbti is INTP-T
I think I have said enough haha, I hope you have a great day! Stay hydrated and I hope you get enough rest! 💕
Yes, I am still doing them so dw !! I hope u also have a great day, thank you !!! And I’m so tired atm so hopefully I’ll sleep a lot tn 😭
In Enhypen I ship you with Jay !!
Tumblr media
Big jay vibes
I can just see y’all together so clearly in my mind
I tried to imagine the other members but jay felt the most compatible imo
Y’all deft watch anime together and read mangas all the time !!!!
You guys with go to like a Manga store or smith and just chill there for hours reading
I feel like if there’s a couch there he’ll be laying down with your head on his chest just reading
Pls, I can imagine is so clearly I hope u can too 😭
Idek if he’s into that stuff but for this I’m going to pretend he does
U GO TO ARCADES AND INTERNET CAFE’S ALL THE TIME
When u win like every game Jay is like 😧
“I let you win”
“Sureee, let’s play again then”
It’s just funny bc u guys have small, stupid arguments like this all the time 😭
It’s nothing you guys take seriously it’s just jokes and you both know that
Draw him.
He will be amazed and happy istg
He loves when you let him look through ur art book
Honestly, he wants a tattoo of ur art on him 😯
Really cool, chill couple that’s kinda just there yk
You guys aren’t really cheesy or cliche ur kinda the opposite and just a really really cool couple
I think you will open up to him and learn to trust him as time goes on
And that’s what he wants. He wants you to trust him and know he’ll never hurt u and in fact he’ll even take a bullet for u 🤷‍♀️
In Treasure I ship you with Haruto !!
Tumblr media
Honestly I was gonna choose Junghwan until I really thought abt it
Haruto is very mellow and laid back as well and comes off as kind of cold so I feel like this would workout
It would workout bc u guys are really similar in a way which makes it easy to understand the other
And when u understand someone it’s easier to trust them and get along ykyk
For this one I think you guys would play a lot of games at home instead
Y’all are huge homebodies you’ll do anything to stay home 😭
he will deff watch anime with you
Hell even pretend he’s a character and start doing the moves they’re doing 😭
Same with Manga’s, he’ll read them as well but I think he’d prefer anime
If u don’t already know Japanese I feel like he’d try to teach u
But if u do and all a sudden you start speaking to him in Japanese he’ll be so stunned and think it’s so cool
He’ll make his 😮 face and say smith like
“yOu SpEaK jAPanEse oMg mE tOo!!!”
😭😭
No really, I didn’t know Haruto 😐
Anyways
He likes watching you draw, he’d be so concentrated on the pencil or whatever ur using to draw just following it with his eyes
Ok but Haruto is literally art itself so u better draw him 😠
He likes it when u play with his hair or rub his back, even if h don’t like PDA or affection he’ll do anything to have u do it
He’ll beg on his knees if he has to
So do it!!!!
I don’t think y’all would argue much but when U do it would be a big deal
I feel like when haruto’s annoyed nothing can stop him, he’s so young and isn’t good at controlling it yet
For example he’ll show u a video and you won’t laugh or anything and maybe make a disgusted face and he’s like “...” looking at u with concentrated eyes
And you just look at him through hooded eyelids “what, is that supposed to be funny or something?” and u didn’t mean for it to sound so rude but he got so pissed and walked to his room slamming his door
He didn’t like that u gave him attitude 😭
It’s usually when u show attitude when he’s just trying to be nice, that he gets pissed off
Other than that y’all are pretty chill and get along for the most part
In The Boyz I ship you with Eric !!
Tumblr media
Hmm this one was tricky to decide
But I feel like with Eric being so outgoing and loud that he’s able to break the ice pretty easily
Honestly, you started trusting him after knowing him for like a month
He plays video games a lot with you
He gets so pressed when you win and says smth like
“Again!!! AGAIN! I SAID AGAIN LETS GO”
Like he’s all giddy until every rematch u keep winning and then he gets mad and goes beyond try hard mode and still loses 🤦‍♀️
Makes u laugh a lot
He makes everyone laugh a lot so this doesn’t come as a surprise
You guys are opposites and opposites attract
Yeah Yeah 😎
I feel like when ur drawing he’ll sit next to you and try so hard to draw and just draws a stick man or smth 😭
Pls he is so concentrated and his tongue is sticking out and then when he’s done he gets so excited like
“look look !!! It’s my best by far!!”
Until he peeks and sees ur work and just throws the pencil and closes the notebook 😭
He hates staying home so u guys have inconsistent dates
It’s all over the place, one week they’ll be at home and the next they’ll be in another country 😭
I think the only time u argue or get into “fights” is when he wants to go out but u wanna stay home or smith yk
Just something chill ig
Omg when your at his dorm and sunwoo or juyeon is there-
Ur literally leaving 😭
They’re so loud and obnoxious and u really be third wheeling with ur own bf 😐
They really just stole ur man, what U gonna do now

Tumblr media
Kinda want to make us happen (so stop smiling at me like that)
"Okay. What would you go for, then?"
"I don't know. Johansson, maybe? I like that one" says Steve, thoughtful, dropping down next to Billy, his back against the boiling side of the Camaro" Ooor-oh! Williamson! That one sounds good. Steve Williamson. What do you think?"
"Weird." Billy taps his cigarette butt with his thumb, blowing the ash, "I think it sounds weird. And I don't know why you want to change it, if all of those rhyme with the one you already have”
Steve rolls his eyes. The screams from the pool come gusty, like the wind that has risen from the east. The kids are already more than fifteen minutes late.
"Let's see. You try. I'm sure you'll have a knack for it"
Billy should get mad about his haughty tone, but what he feels instead is that tone describing a line that travels straight down from the hollow of his throat to just below his navel. The wind has extinguished his cigarette when he brings it to his lips. He throws it. Steals Steve's.
"Hey!"
"I don't know" he hits a puff, pretends to ignore him "I like the one you have. Sounds good. Ha-rring-ton. HaaaarringTON ”
"You only like it because you use it to harass me"
Billy can't help but smile. Wide. Cheeky.
"Maybe"
Billy shouldn't know about this last name thing. It's not like he and Steve have anything remotely close to that kind of familiarity. They are not friends or anything. Most of the time Billy only gets to see him like this, in passing. An almost daily coincidence. On days like today, waiting for the kids around a cigarette. On the days Steve stops by the gas station during Billy's shift to refuel the BMW. When he sees him in the distance, walking by, like those people you see only in the movies. Sunglasses on. White, pristine Nikes, a smile more expensive than all the money Billy will ever have in his hands. Million-dollar Steve Harrington, with his million-dollar smile. Completely unattainable for someone like Billy.
Because, that’s it, people like Steve Harrington happen to people like Billy Hargrove only in passing. And he knows, he knows, but he can't help but force those coincidences a little sometimes, push them into happening, like dropping by the Mall to fetch an ice cream on the Scoops –even if it really does have the best stuff in town–, accidentally catching a conversation ("Dingus. I vote for dingus. That’s your new last name" and "Thank you, Robin. I'm glad you're taking it so seriously" and "I take it seriously. Steve Dingus. Think about it"). And Billy is curious now. As he always is, inevitably, about all things regarding Steve Harrington.
"And why do you want to change it?"
 "I'm gonna-" Steve hesitates. Draws a long, curved line with his shoe, staining the tip with the dusty ocher dirt of the gravel "I'm gonna leave"
It's a curious thing. One moment it feels like there's plenty of air filling your lungs, and the next, you have nothing.
"From Hawkins?"
"Eh? No. No” Steve takes a deep breath, “Only from my parent’s house”
Billy doesn't know if when your heart skips a beat you can ever get it back, but if not, Steve Harrington owes him this one.
But he sounds cool, perfectly collected when he speaks again. A long, hard-learned ability.
"And the last name thing?" 
“My father– He's always saying this shit,” he sighs, makes his voice even more serious, rounds it in an exaggerated imitation of his father “This –You're not worthy to carry the Harrington name– shit. So."
Billy knows a lot about asshole fathers and never meeting impossible expectations. If he could, he would erase every trace of Neil off himself, even if he's not sure how much would be left after that.
"Yeah"
He hands him the cigarette and Steve accepts it with a small smile.
 "It will cost me almost everything I have. But, you know, is worth it"
Billy frowns.
"Don't you have like, a shitload of money?" 
"Not if I leave" Steve shrugs, turns his head in the direction of the pool, throat working "If you leave casa Harrington, you leave casa Harrington for good. No car, no inheritance, no nothing. We’re not– in the best terms right now. My father and I" 
Billy wants to know about that too–he wants to know everything– but it seems like too much to ask. 
Steve's head lulls down. The wind picks up momentum over the curve of his back, ruffles his hair in a whirlpool. He puffs on the cigarette.
It's the closest Billy is ever going to get to his lips.
"Well, welcome then, to bottom of the bottom of the social scale.  I’m sure you’re gonna enjoy yourself down here, surrounded by the poor and the unprivileged “
He means it as a joke, but realizes he has screwed up the moment the words leave his lips. Steve’s face twists into something sad and ashamed and Billy is a fucking asshole that needs to stop and think before opening his big, stupid mouth.  
"I guess so," he says, lips pressed thin. And God, Billy is like a fucking elephant, stepping on every delicate thing. He should know better than making it worst.
Fuck.
Because is not as he can’t imagine the reason why Steve wants to get away from Robert Harrington. Why he needs to stop being someone so small under such a large shadow. Because Steve it’s not like that. It’s not some selfish and self-centered prick. Steve is caring and protective and so, so good.
And Billy is totally gone for him.
"You can have mine" he says, and immediately wants to smack himself in the head because though you were gonna start thinking before speaking, Hargrove. 
Steve looks at him, curious and a bit confused. Billy inhales. Deep.
"Can what?"
"My last name" he says, because Steve is looking at him intently, and there’s nothing he can do now "I hate it. You can have it if you want”
And Jesus, he feels so stupid right now. It’s like he can’t control his fucking mouth when he's around Steve, like he’s still seventeen and trying so hard to impress him.  Fishes inside his back pocket for the pack of cigarettes. He can see Steve’s smile growing in the corner of his eye.  And ok. That’s ok. Billy is a big-mouthed asshole. But Steve is smiling now, so ok.
At least he made it better.
"I don't think Steve Hargrove sounds very cool either, truth be told"
But it does. It does. And Billy is turning red, warmth spreading through his face, burning on the tips of his ears.
"It’s better than Johansson"
"That’s true" He does this thing he does sometimes, this thing of fixing his eyes on Billy and instantly looking away, elusive, and Billy's body tightens as if ready to hunt him down, thrumming with the blind impulse of reach after him. In this distance, he can see all the moles that dot his skin, delicate and beautiful, the long to touch them hurts at his fingertips.
"How are you going to do it?"
 “No fucking idea,” he shrugs. “I guess I can stay at Dustin's for a few days and try to come up with something from there. I don't really have anything planned. I just want–". He doesn't say it, like he’s not able to find the words. Like it’s less formed thought and more feeling.  But there’s no need because Billy knows them all. He has an interminable list of them. It starts with freedom, with independence, with never again.  He yelled them all at his father when he got away last year. Max is the only reason he hasn’t flown from Hawkins yet. 
Well, not the only reason. Just the only that’s not a fucking dream.
“No fucking idea” Steve repeats like an echo, huffs a laugh that comes out ragged. Nervous. Like he’s caught up in that thought. How are you gonna do it?.
And Billy is an adult now. Shouldn’t be losing his self-control around a boy like this anymore. Even if that boy is Steve Harrington. Should be able to stop his fucking mouth for fuck’s sake.
But he asks, anyway.
 "Wanna crash at my place?"
“Uh?”
Steve’s brow furrows. Most days it ain’t easy to tell apart the color of his eyes, irises so dark they mix with the pupils, but the sun is sinking low now, golden light brightening them lighter, a soft shade of brown. Billy tries not to think about how impossible he is, how out of reach even like this, so close to him, side to side, their bodies brushing. 
"While you figure it out, I mean. Or, you know, I could use a roommate, share the rent, once you regain some money, I mean”
It's a stupid offer and he knows it, because people like Steve Harrington never really happen to people like Billy Hargrove, only like this, the luck to steal a few moments, a coincidence.
"Really?" Steve asks with something completely, disarmingly unexpected. Something like hope.
He gets up, looks at Billy like he’s trying to decipher something.
"No. Not really. Didn't you just hear me, Harrington?” He says, uses his best unrepentant asshole tone. Lights another cigarette “I'm wasn't by any means inviting you or something"
And Steve smiles smiles smiles. And Billy has never-ever wanted to kiss someone so much, and for so long, and be able to hold himself back.
"Jesus, Hargrove" Steve breathes out a laugh, and he's beaming, and Billy doesn't have the slightest idea how he managed to do that "Is there anything you are not willing to give me?"
And he’s kidding, of course he is, but the words hit like a blow, straight to his solar plexus and Billy is not fast enough, he wasn’t prepared. So when he lowers his head, he’s sure Steve has seen it all, right there in his eyes.
 Everything.
He lights the cigarette, fills his lungs till he feels them burning. 
"You take it or what?"
"I take it" he says. Low and soft like it is something intended only for Billy to hear "And, you’re right, by the way”
“Uh?”
 “It sounds better the more I think about it"
   (This is how it goes:
Steve never gets to change it.
He moves in with Billy. Needs the money because (“No, no, no. You’re not gonna pay for all our food ¿You want me to die of embarrassment? Wait. Wait. Don’t answer that") so he postpones it because, there's no rush, really (“And you keep calling me HAAaarrrrington, so feels a bit like a waste”) it was one those in-the-heat-of-the-moment kind of decisions anyway so (“No. It was no childish. You’re an asshole. Ok, well. Yeah. That I can accept. It was not the most practical) it ends up on undefined hiatus.
And then they start joking about it. Billy calls him “Mr. Hargrove” (“Good morning, Mr. Hargrove” or “Wanna go to the movies tonight, Mr. Hargrove?” or “You forgot to do the dishes yesterday, Mr. Hargrove, that's five bucks to the forgotten-dishes jar, Mr. Hargrove”) and Steve uses his, when replies, in a fairly accurate impersonation (“You owe like, twenty dollars to that jar, Harrington. So you are not to speak”) and keeps on using it against him on a regular basis (“Gosh, Harrington, you're such softie. And think that you used to be such a hard-ass on High School” every time Max convinces him to take her shopping).
And, truth be told, Steve never hated it that much. Kind of loves it, now that his father hasn’t power over him anymore, now that it's Billy who uses it, rides the letters like a wave, HarrignTON, piling up the syllables like in a roller coaster. When he says,
“I’m glad you’re here with me, Harrington” falling asleep against his shoulder on the couch.
When he says,
“I miss you, Harrington. This is so boring without you” that time Steve took the kids on a camping trip for a whole week.
When he says,
“I can’t stop myself from kissing you anymore, Harrington. So this is your chance to step away”
They hyphenate, at the end.
There are a lot of Hs and Rs and Gs, that they share, and Steve wants them all.
They toss a coin in the air.
“Are you sure you haven’t cheated, pretty boy? You look too smug to not be lying”
“Why would I? But we can switch, if you want to”
“Nah, I think it sounds pretty good, actually” Billy says. Kisses him “Better the more I think about it”)

NEEDLETAIL?????????
Needletail???????????
What?????
OH???????
Wh THIS GUY IS TALKIN 2 DEAD PEOPLE????
HOW WHO IS THAT
OH MY GOD
These guys are weak and dumb skyclan is epic and sharing the territory with them is good, but of course sparkpelt isn't dealing well with change wink wink nudge wink nudge nudge huh???? (this is a nod to how I project into her and say shes autistic)
I am getting anxious for tinycloud SERIOUSLY how much longer until those kits??? Everyday you show up and its WOW my tummy ssure is HUGE AND BULGING I just Wonder Oh When They'll Be Born, probably pretty soon!!! :) and then they arent!!!! Birth dammit!!!
Cherryfall cut the sick and hurt cats some slack jeez youre Fine, youre not feeding half the forest and you have THREE medicine cats ready to help you if youre not feeling well
Bastard Cherryfall I hate you /lh
Dovewing and Tigerheart have relationship drama again. What is UP with those two I simply do not understand them
Watching Bramblestar trying to control this bizarre situation is actually funny he is so close to screaming "PLEASE dont be mad :c"
SOON WHEN???? JUST KIT THOSE KITTENS DAMMIT
Tumblr media
Get her, Alderheart
They LITERALLY said something about sharing the territory, they were like "Stars have five points baby and we need those 5 clans togetherrrr" what else do these cats want??? I know its a big change but its necessary
Wait everyone shut up that cat is named Podlight this is so important to me
Dang these cats are really still struggling :c I wish they didnt blame each other
Harestar is so cool
What the FUCK mistystar????
God what a disaster of a gathering Starclan is gonna be so pissed everyone is doing the opposite of what they should
I was holding my breath oof
I hope thunderclan gives some territory too thats too small a space for Skyclan
Oh boy oh boy oh boy i am Anxious for these Kitties
Violetpaw is me having nightmares every night
Macgyver is a heavily gringue name and I have No Clue how to say it how the hell do you say it
Update its either Mick Guyver or Mac Guyver apparently
Its fun to see how different the sisters are from one another, I love them both
I also love their mom with the name identical to puddleshine wish I got to meet her
IM CRYING BRO........M...MDB.....NFBANN.....VIOLETPAW BELONGS MY DARLING MY DAUGHTER
Sadly Twigpaw is for gender binarism 😔 /j
Twigpaw is often in her thoughts and doesn't pay attention to anything around her and I love her for that
Bad news Finpaw is gonna lose his tail, good news I can draw his tail fin-shaped
Puddleshine surgeon moment!!!
I love Graystripe and Millie
And I love that being flirty is a part of Sparkpelt's personality, I don't know what Alderheart is talking about she's always been dandelion-headed
Ok this is epic, I’m glad we’re breaking gender roles in Warrior Cats my heart dropped when the books called Briarlight cr*ppled, that’s the thing they promised not to do anymore recently right? I’m not sure but, I could use some uh less ableism on my Warrior Cats, the series is old but the newer books should be better, so yeah, good modernize these cats babyyy
OH COOL Skyclan journey!!! Fun I hope they find someone :] also fuck Molewhisker and Cherryfall bastards.
Jayfeather is gonna miss Alderheart too much for him to leave hehehe
ALL of Starclan showed up just to call out Riverclan pahahah
oooo is shadowclan haunted?????
FINALLY TINYCLOUD IS KITTING YES GOD YES GO QUEEN GOOOO!!!!
I wonder why Twigpaw wants to stay behind, there has to be more than just the camp stuff
"I wish I were more positive like Twigpaw, but at least I'm just as scarred by the death of my loved ones as my dad :] I like being like him"
Violetpaw witnesses a car crash 😔 that was a bit messy what happened to those cars also why the hell was one of them smaller was it a bike??? Or ???? Idk what's up with it!!!
Needletail just happens to have slow-down turned on for her on the discord chat so she can only say like a few words each hour :/ why the hell is she here tho Violetpaw needs to get OVER your death!!!!
Tumblr media
This short exchange has made me love Dewpaw
Also, I love Twigpaw, I still wonder why she stayed behind tho
Ahh, is it cus she feels too estranged from her family :c ? I wish her mom was around maybe that would help
Jee Twigpaw be a tad more empathic, I can see Twigpaw struggles with that sometimes
You can't cheer him up right now he's grieving, just find him on common ground, talk to him, don't try to make him happy just try to keep him company
Oh wow finpaw that's a dangerous thing to say I hope Twigpaw doesn't crumble under the pressure to never be sad because people like her because she's happy and her being sad would be bad
ALSO I JUST REMMEMBRERD UH TWIGPAW MENTIONED BRIARLIGHT BUT BERRYNOSE IS RIGHT THERE???? HE IS RIGHT HE DIDNT DIE OFF SCREEN IM SURE OF IT WAIY
BERRYNOSS IS RIGHT THERE I CHDCKED!!!! HE LOST HIS TAIL TOO AND HES A GREAT WARRIOR, TWIGPAW!!!! YOU SHOULD HAVE MENTIONED IT ITS MORE RELATABLE
Okay I'm glad they're getting along this is nice
Oh look twigpaw you Are like your father :] this is cute
Skyclan begins to fish competitively I'm glad
I like it when medicine cats bicker about their leader's behaviors ehheheh, Jayfeather talking about how weak Shadowclan is, Alderheart being annoyed at his father for wanting to stay silent, the others worried about the tensions this is all cheff the kisser
Jayfeather spitting the truths about how Starclan doesn't know shit, and he is very much one to speak
Puddleshine: Rowanstar stepped up the patrols :c
Leadstar: He has warriors enough for that?? Damn good for him
Dang poor Skyclan I hope they manage stuff better soon
Oooo the girls are fighting!!!
Alderheart starclan anxiety time dang

Blackstar protagonist moment
The medicine cats: our gods are toying with us again and destiny is uncertain
Leaders: I cannot DO this right now PLEASE leave and let me care for The Real Issues
Alderheart: YOU WILL hang out at my house Willowshine this isn't up for debate

I love leafstar so much
Juniperclaw: aren't you gonna punish her????
Leafstar: why
Juniperclaw: when I tell rowanstar he's gonna be pissed
Leafstar: don't tell him
Juniperclaw: the fuck is wrong with you and your clan??? Where is everyone???????
Leafstar: busy
Icon
I don't trust abled people specially able-bodied people telling disabled people they just have to train harder and feeling sorry for yourself won't help.
But this is the closest to a positive message to disabled people we have ever had in warriors so I guess I'll take it but I want better
IVYPOOL!!!💖💖💖💖💕
Dang ivypool what a way to show someone you miss them hahaha
Twigpaw: uhhhh how's dovewing?
Ivypool: what do you mean did she do something illegal I'm sure she did
Ivypool is a seriously funny character WHY are you yelling at the young adult about your sisters illegal activities she doesn't know anything about it!!!!
Alderheart goes on an adventure
Feet inspector on the road!!!!
Jasper is so funny I love him
Omg what's he got against clan cats??? What's his sad backstory????
YEESSSS SPARKPELT MY LOVE 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💕💕💕💕💕💕💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💕💕💕
Sparkpelt your opinion sucks but I love you
I'm really really glad they had this moment this is really sweet, they hadn't talked for a while but this is genuine like, we hadn't had this sort of relationship in so long in the books with just, dialogue yknow??? THEYRE TALKING ABOUT THINGS
And the pause Sparkpelt takes between her speaking to fix what she's saying "I'm sorry for saving you :c no wait uhh not exactly but like" this is so good so natural so fun I love you sparkpelt
I get why she has a diferent opinion on Skyclan it's good for someone close to Alderheart to have a different mindset from him and for him to have someone like uh be opposites from him a lil yknow contrats his characteristics makes both siblings fun round and full of kitty do you get what I'm saying???
I love this
I love Sparkpelt, love her lil anxious moments, love her, love that she just wants to fool around with toms and enjoys Larksong but doesn't want to get serious you go girl
They wanted to write smart-ass they wanted to write smart-ass so bad
They're doing this in the rain?????
I'm quite certain Violetpaw is a young adult by this point its valid for her to go
Wh why did you let your cat out in the rain dude!!! When it comes back it's gonna dirty up the whole place it's wet out there!!!! And the cold is gonna get in the house!!!!!!!
I WAS HOLDING MY BREATH OH LORD
That was SO INTENSE AND SO FUNNY AND SO MUCH, IM SO GLAD SHE MADE IT I GOT SCARED
Oh this is so epic
That moment when your cat nearly dies and then it runs off and you go after it and then a bunch of other cats show up and start running with it
I hope Twigpaw can see the others soon
Glad to see her keeping her medicine cat knowledge ehehehe

Oh so Snowbush hasn't improved, maybe he will die?
Poor Alderheart

I'm so heartbroken for them
Uh pdhsgahab okay then
Bye finpaw
Wow that was easy for him
This is fun
I'm still sad as hell
Okay there's a lot going on right now wow
The owl scene was funny as hell to picture, this dramatic prophetic moment and the cats just "uuggh is that a prophecy??? Nooo"
Okay so
There's some shadowclan cats missing, considering the many sleekwhisker maps I'm sure she's up to no good but I have no clue what happened to the others and I hope they're okay
Wow! That was really something
Fantastic ending to a very good book its, definitely a different energy from the third but I'm really enjoying this I'm still excited as hell!!! I got worried things would get kinda bad from here but nope!!!! Very fun stuff for now this is very very good and I am enjoying it
This is definitely one of the most fun arcs I've read so far!!! The drama the stakes the little moments everything is tying together really well into a very fun story I'm enjoying a lot!
I worry for Twigpaw and hope for her happiness, and Violetshine too, hope her and Hawkwing deal well with missing her. Tree is being interesting. Alderheart wasn't much of a focus here but always fun to see him trying to solve the damn prophecy no leaders seem to care about. Mousewhisker was okay??? Lots of very fantastic turns for all events and uh let's see where this all goes next!!!

Hey hello I sent in an anon about starting tarot a while ago (I do not know when I know it was post quarantine starting but...time is wild) and i was wondering if you answered it? This isn't at all me trying to pressure you please please don't read it that way, i totally get it if you didn't! I just know that tumblr's search function is very broke and I'm scared I missed your answer, which would be sad. (I hope this doesn't sound like a bother it's genuinely all good if not I'm just checking!)
YES oh my gosh holy shit hello hi yes hi anon my dear I did in fact completely fucking forget to actually answer your original ask I am so sorry lmao
thank you for reminding me ajhdfgjhsdfg and again I’m so sorry it took me forever anyway I’m gonna just uhhhh look up your original ask real quick
OKAY so resources and starting decks! there are lots and lots of people who know more than me so I feel a little unqualified to answer this but I can tell you my thoughts?? but I definitely recommend looking into what other folks have to say on starting out, I’m sure there are lots of different opinions and ideas! :D
also sorry, it’s me you’re asking, so you’re not gonna get nice neat dot points and I’m not great at being concise, I’m just going to ramble if that’s ok, very sorry, very sorry
under the cut rambles
so........................
for learning meanings........ it’s a lot of work, there’s a lot of detail and a lot of different things to think about during readings, I’ve been learning tarot for around seven years on and off and I still don’t remember everything! 
so IMO it’s best not to come at tarot with the intent to Learn Everything before you start! it’s the perfect thing to learn as you go! my advice would be to just kinda throw yourself in. when you first get a deck, go through the cards and vibe with them some and look at their meanings, but mostly just kinda contemplate them, don’t try to memorise everything at once. start doing readings, look stuff up as you go............. I would recommend keeping a journal where you document your readings............ which will help you with memory and picking up on patterns and connections....... uhhhh
I really like using apps as a companion as well!  they can be a super good resource even if you don’t want to use them FOR readings necessarily
I use Galaxy Tarot as a convenient way to look up meanings and summaries of the cards when I just need to kinda jog my memory (though the descriptions aren’t super detailed), and it has a function where you can either do a reading with the app or you can do a reading yourself and then plug the cards you’ve drawn into the app, and it can help you with pointing out recurring themes and symbols and connections between the cards, which can be handy when you’re first starting out and maybe feel a little overwhelmed by the Amount Of Information you’re trying to take in
uhhhh another one I’ve used in the past is Labyrinthos Tarot, which is an app to help you learn and memorise the cards and their meanings., from what I can remember there are sorta, games and exercises to help with it, I forget exactly how it works since it’s been a while since I used it! but maybe that’s a good one to check out too?
I feel like apps is something i should’ve mentioned at the end but anyway moving on to the rest of it
most decks will come with a guidebook of some sort! so you’ve got the traditional rider waite tarot deck (which is probably the default deck most people think of when they think of tarot), and there are plenty of resources online such as Biddy Tarot which can give you a fairly detailed rundown of the card meanings! these meanings can be applied to variations of the rider waite cards, but lots of decks are a little wild and a little funky and are off doing their own thing while still following the basic rider waite structure, and if you receive a guidebook with a deck, that’s definitely an invaluable resource!! ‘cause it’ll give you the artist’s kinda interpretation and their meanings, their own personal touch, even if you then look up the card in more detail online
ALSO tarot is just a whole fuckin tonne about intuition as well though! so as much as it can feel like something where you need to focus on all the details and try and keep them all rigid and by-the-book, you might do a reading and feel yourself drawn in a certain different direction or just get a “feeling”, so you should definitely be open and flexible and listen to what your gut tells you as far as meanings go! plus, you will develop your own relationship to the cards and maybe draw your own personal meanings and associations! that’s definitely not something to fight against and don’t worry about whether that means you’re doing it “wrong” - you should listen to those feelings, those r important!! :D
lastly I will say, it can be helpful to have someone who is more experienced with tarot around who you feel you can ask for advice from or get second opinions from if there’s something you’re confused about! or who can give you tips and tricks from firsthand experience. like, it doesn’t have to be something you learn alone, and having a teacher or companion can be really helpful in terms of bouncing ideas and getting new perspectives! I throw this out there because I always forget to say things like this, ‘cause I forget that other people Are Not Me and other people like being around people lmao rip
and as far as starting decks go........... it really depends so much on what you want and what’s important to you! some people will say start with the traditional rider waite tarot, and if you decide to do that, you will certainly have a lot of resources at your disposal! it’s a valid place to start for sure
but there’s also SO many different decks out there with all sorts of themes and art and personality, and IMO......... I’d kinda urge you in the direction of choosing something you’re personally interested in and engaged with! it can make connecting with a deck easier and can help you stay interested and engaged during learning! but that’s just me
when I got my first deck the lady in the store kinda just took me to the collection of decks and just asked me which ones I vibed with and which one kinda called out to me or one I was drawn to, then she let me take a look at some of them and she showed me how to handle them and use them!! this was my first experience, n I was told just to go with what Feels Good And Right
n there’s so much cool art out there! and many interesting themes! you might not know which one you’ll latch onto until you see it, so take some time to look around and see what speaks to you c:
for instance, certain themes like cats or flowers, certain art styles, maybe certain series you’re into (I have two welcome to night vale decks n the raven’s prophecy by maggie stiefvater), or queer friendly decks! I have the Numinous Tarot which I ADORE, which is a deck with gorgeous artwork and extremely queer, all gender neutral language and lots of diverse designs, etc
so it depends what you’re into! take some time to feel it out, my friend
I would also like to throw out a mention to oracle decks as well! I actually started with oracle decks long before I used any tarot decks c: 
I am................... very tired. and blanking on the best way to explain the difference between oracle and tarot decks, but you can look into this if you’re interested! lots of people use both or use them in conjunction with each other and there’s benefits to both n so on and so forth........
but in terms of Starting Out, and getting comfy with doing readings? they can also be really helpful in this regard! I found since oracle decks can have any number of cards and are less “structured” than tarot decks in a way, it can be really helpful as a way to get comfortable with things if you find, just, the Amount Of Detail that is involved in tarot decks overwhelming!!
it was something that helped me get the ~feel~ of doing readings and sensing with the cards and vibin and such, n get some practice drawing connections between cards and deriving meanings from the stories the cards present! but in a way that’s not quite as...... overwhelming?? as traditional tarot decks?? I was SUPER intimidated by just how extensive tarot decks were when I first started and I thought I’d never figure out what I was doing HAHAHA
but again, it’s just practice, I think!
where tarot will follow the same 78 cards and structure and is very traditional and I guess “rigid” is not exactly the right word?? but yeah?? oracle decks are a lot more flexible in what they represent and a lot more loose in the structures they can take
I do love oracle decks because of how varied they are!! each one is its own little system and its own unique universe and it’s really quite lovely, even if you aren’t into Actually Doing Readings with them, y’know?
but then, I find tarot decks the same way, what will all the different art styles and different people’s interpretations and renditions of the same story, like, it’s really fascinating!! 
this has just turned into me rambling about how cool they are now
point is, do a little research into what sorts of decks and themes you might like to buy, when you get a chance I thoroughly recommend visiting a store so you can speak to someone who has some experience with tarot decks, they can help guide you when it comes to picking one and giving you some tips!! remember that it’s about intuition and following your gut as much as it is about memory and precision, so you should pick a deck that Feels Right
and uhhhhhhhhhhh
just kinda throw yourself in!! that’s literally my best advice!! you’re never gonna memorise everything beforehand (I’ve been learning on and off for seven years and I still often have to consult guidebooks and webpages) but you WILL absolutely learn as you go
it might feel very clumsy starting out, but as with any craft, you will improve with practice and begin to feel more comfy and confident with it as you go!
I hope this helped out some!! maybe!! possibly!!!!! ok goodnight!!!

Hiya! I think you seem like a pretty cool person and a great writer and I hope you're doing well and having an awesome day! Saw what you were working on and can't wait to see the finished products! With all that being said, if you ever have time at all, do you think you could make a bodyguard! AU with NCT127 please? If you're too busy to do all the members that's fine, maybe just do Taeil, Doyoung, and Yuta? Only if you have time of course! Welp, I'm probably talking too much so uh, bye! 😃
thanks! here’s a little bodyguard!nct for their comeback celebration ^^tw: blood, guns /
Taeil
absolutely doesn’t want to be doing this job, but god does it pay good so he’s like here i am 
tries to take inconspicuous naps whenever he can
100% fell asleep standing up at the airport,,,,,100% didn’t take notes when you asked him to
there’s probably like a set of rules bodyguards are supposed to follow on the job and every new guard knows them like the back of his hand
while taeil is like “uh yeah rule 1,,,,,uh,,,,don’t let the client die? im super good at this job don’t fire me.”
but also like have you ever seen taeil do that,,,,,that like,,,,evil smile,,,,,that alone scares off anyone who tries to come in your vicinity 
everyone keeps telling you that taeil isn’t a good guard, that when you’re going to be in real trouble he won’t be able to save you
but you,,,,believe him
if only because you’ve known him for so long it feels like you have something special with him
and when you do get attacked, someone tries to get at you with a conceled weapon
taeil,,,,show ups
he pulls you behind him, unafraid and stops the person dead in their tracks with his bare freaking hands
like grabs at a knife with his bare hands,,,,, 
of course he gets gashed and hurt but he doesn’t even wince at the pain, he keeps you completely shielded while another guard pulls away the attacker
and you’re like holy shit holy shit and taeil is like “are you afraid? we need to get a medic-”
and you’re like “nO YOUR HAND TAEIL YOU’RE BLEEDING?”
and taeil is like it’s a little scratch i wont die (it’s not a little scratch,,,he will lose blood)
and you like shrug off your jacket, tying it around his palm and he’s like “it’ll stain-”
and you’re like “i love you but you’re being dumb, im not in danger and you’ve protected me for years let me do this for you.”
and taeil, about to faint from blood loss is like “oh,,,,well i love you too,,,,actually - ok im fainting now”
Doyoung
nags the other bodyguards so much that he doesn’t realize you’ve needed his help for like five solid minutes
no one knows how he became a bodyguard because he always seems to be in over-panic mode
how do his eyes get even wider when he’s scared? a mystery
his ear-piece was customized by his mom to have little bunnys on them and the hangul of his name
cute,,,,but a tad bit annoying - just enough that the other bodyguards are like “if you fuck up, dads gonna be on your ass” (dad in this scenarios is doyoung because he’s much like a parent)
tries really hard to get over his fears to be a better bodyguard,,,,but bugs??? oh no,,,,,heights??? HELL no,,,,,,deep water?????? you might as well be guarding him he’s clinging onto you with dear life
but doyoung’s observancy skill is like no other - it’s like he has eyes everywhere and he’s incredibly methodical about how to deal with danger
also i just would like to say that bodyguards don’t have to wear gloves,,,but i feel like doyoung would
you’re at some kind of conference, giving a speech at the stage and as usual doyoung is stationed right behind you
he realizes almost immediately that someone is trying to sneak past the curtain behind you - probably to wait and attack you when you’re leaving down the steps
so when you finish, doyoung signals for two other guards to go down the stairs
and instead of letting you walk down the only stair off the stage
he hops off, opens his arms and motions for you to jump into them
and you’re like ????? “that’s unprofessional -”
but doyoung turns to the audience and is like “in about three seconds someone will be dragged from behind the curtain who was waiting to hurt my boss.”
and bam three seconds later the two guards end up in a brawl with some masked person holding a weapon
and you immediately just throw yourself at doyoung, who catches you swiftly 
and whispers against your ear that he’s going to make a run for the car he called for
and you’re like you called for a car??? already??? and he’s like it’s my job, so hold on
and when you’re finally safe and sound, for some reason you can’t let go of doyoungs arm,,,,and he’s completely ok with it
because you’re like a bit paranoid but doyoung is like “im like a hawk, if anything tries to hurt you ill see it before it can.”
and you’re like “gosh i should give you a raise,,,” and he just blushes and murmurs
“you could also just give me,,,a kiss instead,,,,”
Yuta
oh my god who let this flashy kid do this job 
like bodyguards are supposed to be present, you know to scare people off
not to draw their attention because they’re handsome and/or didn’t wear the uniform and wore something that may or may not have glitter on it and oh my god is that an expensive watch
yuta: i have to look good on the job
doyoung, about to snap: no you’re supposed to wear the suit the company gave you
yuta: but i don’t want to be boring like you
doyoung:,,,,,,,,,,taeil hold me back
but seriously, no one thinks yuta is your bodyguard they’re like that’s just your boyfriend??? right
and yuta lives off this he throws an arm around you, fixes your hair and goes “im madly in love with them,,,,but i work for them,,,,it’s a one-sided affair!”
dramatically flipping his hair while three hundred people go doES that MEAN yOURE sinGLE
but,,,,the catch is yuta is actually deadly. not just looks wise - although the feline eyes and smile does make it hard not to be shocked still
he’s also trained in multiple types of fighting arts - not to mention has the aim of a god
so you’re safe,,,,,,but there’s always eyes on you 
sometimes, you do have yuta pose as your boyfriend - especially if you’re in another country because it means he can be close and if anyone tries anything they won’t see him coming
and you know,you’re at this gala - yuta is hold your hand as due to the act of you guys being ‘together’
when an older man approaches you and suddenly, you feel a gun to your back
you flash a look at yuta, but the man tells neither of you to do anything - to follow him out where you’ll hand over anything of value on you 
yuta squeezes your hand and you follow the instructions, till your outside and as you take off some of the jewels you have on
rummaging through your bag for whatever money is in there
you feel the gun pointed at your back and yuta’s eyes shifting between it and the man
and just as he moves it a bit, to take the money you’re going to hand over
yuta grabs it, and delivers a hard kick to the mans abdomen - shoving him far away from you 
he presses his earpiece, calls for backup outside and then grabs your hand to run
you trip a bit, trying to keep up with his speed but yuta doesn’t let you fall behind 
and when you’re far enough away, you hear someone transmite that they’re chasing the guy
you look up at yuta, whose usually warm expression is twisted into sheer fear and concern
he grabs your face with both hands, lips quivering “are you ok? i didn’t think he’d give me an opening - i really thought if you gave him everything he’d kill you and -”
you put your hands over his and shake your head “it’s fine, im ok. you did your job so well.”
suddenly, yuta’s eyes darken a bit and he leans down touching foreheads with you
“i know you think this is just a job for me, and that im always joking around but when will you realize that im not,,,”
you blink “wha-”
“i really am madly in love with you.”

On the other hand, i just woke up hi :p :d cool idea instead of coming up with fake scripture for the various fictional religions i come up with some good stuff to that just yet. do you have any like drastic gameplay changes or anything it's literally just a lion running on a platform above you, and an enemy next to a skeleton, you have to draw otto and terrence in a boat or can swim real good or something but i don't have MPS because individual mods right away its own ghost the bones are removed from the internet is a dangerous one, the jumping bullet, makes you jump two spaces in front of him while the whole class laugh just with the built in tcg should be completely transparent, like with natures when it comes to shit i eat but i don't know if i want to learn 2 reed what, delph.

Hey. I'm sorry to bother you, but I was wondering if you have any tips on how you usually get from the "broad idea" stage of a story to actually figuring out the events and how things go from point a to b to c? I get ideas all the time and I want to try actually writing some of them, but I always get stuck at actually going from "wouldn't this be cool" to "how does this plot actually go down as a story"...
Ok so this got pretty dang long because I am forever loquacious and suck at brevity.  And it’s 4am so excuse typos, lol.  And also, writing is very personal and everyone has different methods and things that work for them, so this isn’t like the One True Way to block out a story.  It’s just how I do things.  
Part One is about narrowing your broad idea and defining the shape of the story.
So, the most important things to keep in mind when trying to figure out how the story actually goes are A) Who are my characters? and B) What is the message?  
The first thing is characters.  Who are you characters and what do they want?  The very simplest plot outline is that you have a protagonist who wants something, and an antagonist who stands in the way of the character getting that thing.  
When you know what your characters want, and you know their personality, think about what they woud logically do to achieve that.  What is your main character trying to do? That’s your story.      
Second, the message.  Almost every story I write has a message.  The ones that don’t are some of the self-indulgent Goretober ones, or really quick fluffy ones.  These aren’t grand, life-changing messages or things I’m trying to change the world with, but just a basic theme.  I’m sure you’ve all learned about themes in your literature class so I’m sorry to turn this into school, but themes are important.  The theme defines the basic voice of the story.  It’s what it’s about.  For Want of a Nail is about evil twins and a serial killer, but it’s about how circumstances and environment can alter a personality and that goodness is a choice, not a trait.    
Knowing what your story is about helps to give it a cohesive shape.  When deciding what direction the plot should go, the overall theme gives you direction.  If you know your story is ultimate about “enforcing one’s justice”, you’ll choose your plot points based on “how does this contirbute to the idea of enforcing one’s justice?”.   Not every single thing, but enough to give it that structure.  Like, I knew For Want of a Nail was about choice, so I knew that the strongest ending would be giving Alter-Flynn a choice rather than just killing him.
It doesn’t have to be a positive moral, or even a clear message, though.  Still is about sanity and how fragile it can be - no message there, just exploring the concept.  As the Sparks Fly is about religion and faith, and 3 different conclusions are reached by the end.  Heck, at its core, Under the Ice was based around a song lyric from Into the Woods (”Sometimes people leave you/halfway through the woods.”)  If you’re stumped, focus in on what the most important aspect fo the story is (maybe it’s a relationship, maybe it’s a characters personal growth, maybe it’s an existential idea like death or lonliness).  Sometimes, a moral-style theme will naturally come through while you’re writing and you can pretend you’re a genius who thought of it.  
So when trying to narrow down your story from a broad idea, answer these questions: Who is my protagonist?  What do they want?  Who is standing in the way of them getting that?  What is this story ultimately about?
Once you know these things, you should have some structure to the story.  The trick thing now is to fill in all the blanks.  So Part 2 is about how to fill in all that empty space that appears once you have the vague shape of a story defined.   
I find it helpful to talk it over with someone.  Often, ideas will be stagnant until I start typing them out, and once it gets flowing it’s easier to keep that momentum going.  Explaining ideas to someone else is good for this, because it gives you an excuse to type it out, you’ll find yourself adding more details on the spot as you realize your friend is going to ask about that plothole, and depending on where you have the conversation, you’ll probably have a transcript of all your ideas to look back on.  It’s even better if the friend is also interested in the idea, and can throw ideas back at you.  A lot of my stories came to form through conversations with Daffy, Hoskky, Nurse Friend, or Lynx.  
And if you don’t have a friend to talk to, I seriously love talking about stories with people.  There are few things I enjoy more than plotting stories so I am 100% up to talk to anyone about their fic ideas. 
But other than just sitting down and throwing ideas around, here are some things I do.  I am a big history fan and I base a lot of my stories on history, either explicitly inspirationally.  Like, N’oubliez pas is clearly based on the French Revolution, but there are aspects of history in a lot of my stories.  For Want of a Nail was partly based on Jack the Ripper, for example.  So when I have a broad idea of something, I start doing research and read about similar scenarios in real life.  Like, right now I’m plotting a sequel to The Uninvited, so I’ve been watching documentaries and reading up on real-life victims of kidnap.    I’ve talked about this before when asked about research, but research and inspriation gathering is often the same.  Bits and pieces of real life get added to my list of “scenes that would be interesting.”  
I’ll look at other fiction, too.  Other stories with a similar premise.  What has already been done effectively, and why did it work?  How can I twist that in mine? I pick up plot elements from my older, abandoned ideas, too.  I often try to combine a bunch of rejected ideas into one big one, to get them all taken care of at once.  
Think about the characters.  Like I said in the beginning, think about what your characters want and what they would do to achieve that.  The antagonist has something they want, so they make a move to reach it.  Then the protagonist reacts to that and makes a move in response to them.  Then the protagonist makes a move toward what they want, and the antagonist reacts to them (try not to have your antagonist to all the proactive things; entirely reactive protagonists tend to be boring).  Plotting becomes a chain of figuring out what each character would do in reaction to the others, or independantly toward their goal.
The goal here is to create a list of scenes or plot points you want in your story.  These are all pieces of a jigsaw puzzle and now your task is to try to put them together.  Start listing the scenes in chronological order.  Look for connections between plot points, which things could lead to which other events.  If you have a good idea, don’t worry about whether you know how to get there yet.  Quite often, during the explaining to a friend stage, the conversation is like
Me: And then THIS happens!
Friend: But how?
Me: ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Magic.  I’ll figure it out later.  
Jump around.  Throw in conclusions you want and trust that you’ll find the connection to get there eventually.  You might not, but don’t disregard it until you try.  Just start shuffling things around until the connect-the-dots start forming a cohesive picture.  I find I work better with pencil and paper at this stage, and draw lots of arrows and circles and squiggly lines to connect points and add notes.  The danger in this messy part of planning is you might change something near the beginning that makes what you planned for the end impossible, so stay aware of that and try to catch this issues before you start writing.  
And when you’re stumped and don’t know how to get from a to b, I don’t have anything to suggest but to lie face down on your bed and think.  I can’t really help you there; ultimately you’ve just gotta fish them from your brain.  If it’s a bland or dumb idea, just go with it for now and hopefully something more inspiring will come to you later.  At least you have the foundation down for now.  
Ok that’s all I can think of for now.  It’s really late so I hope my sleepy rambling made sense.  The best TL;DR I can give is that working out a story is like gradually whittling down a piece of wood and giving shape to the creation beneath.  It’s gonna be blobby and ill-formed for a while, and there will be mis-steps and bad ideas you’ll eventually drop, but just keep the core of the story you’re trying to find and the characters moving it in mind and chip away at it until it takes form.

I'm upset but
When I recap my day, there’s nothing to be upset about bc it was a fucking nice day
Except here I am
I woke up at my friend’s house at like 7am and drove my other friend home
We both left w our La Croixs, which doesn’t look right plural but there was more than one La Croix and they were peach pear
Ok, I gotta say it, peach pear is fucking 2/3 of a Joanna Newsom song so just add plum already bc that’s obvi what’s missing and then you can play the song fer that really specific commercial fer the really specific drink yer marketing and maybe that will satisfy me
But there’s more
I go home and sleep some more
Bc I can
Even better
Then I make myself a fabulous breakfast and COFFEE IN A FRENCH PRESS.
I sweeten it w HONEY
I take a quick shower and have just enough time to throw on a tee shirt and underpants
Then, my lover comes over fer coffee in bed and she looks so good since she was at the farm
She’s brighter and bronzer and just determined as ever
She’s wearing a muscle shirt and a tiny vest and I’m like melting bc she’s such a Fucking babe
She tells me about her world, she shares it w me, and I’m just in awe about all the things she can do // is doing
After about an hr of talking, she asks me if we are gonna cuddle or what and I fucking stumble w my words bc yes and of course and holy shit
I learn she is no longer stripping rn and I honestly wrote about it later on bc I had to process my happiness w her
I needed to write about how she listens to ramps and finds comfort in moss under her feet,
how she belongs no where to no one but she is connected to everything
She’s rooted and reaching
She is the water she seeks to grow
And we kiss and we make a date to go to Planned Parenthood together bc we’re responsible and I massage weird parts of her body that might be sore from being on the farm
But she says she’s still sore from stripping actually and the farm was real chill this time around
I try to keep up with her worlds but I decide to focus on the moment, on her teres muscles which I’ve been finding are really tight on most folx which is why I decided to work on hers
I really want to totally touch her boobs but decide now is not the time bc I have to work soon and that’s not cool fer either of us
I just lay on her chest and listen to her
It’s not that I didn’t have anything to say, I just wanted to listen
I missed her, she was sad when I last saw her, and so I was sad, too, in that way that one cannot help but feel the sadness of someone dear to them.
I carried it, too.
I feel hopeful fer what’s to come, fer her and me, and I drop her off before I go to work
I write about her at work, then i write an outline fer the blog I’m working on fer work
The New Moon just happened, so I frame it from that.
I also draw inspiration from how i left work at a toxic job, and now my lover has, too.
We’ve reclaimed ourself in our own ways.
I almost finish the Time magazine from the future (now a few days old)
I learn about Margaret Atwood and A Handmaids Tale, and I decide I need to read it before I see the show.
I do half a cross word; I’ve been mighty productive this shift but I’m eager to get off.
I have a vm from a work manager, so I call back bc I love my job and I feel v protective over it
I can’t help but get paranoid whenever work people call, I always think I’m in trouble
There are rarely bad things and mainly good things, and t'day was no different
My manager thinks I’m a strong worker and she’s taken to me
I call her my Morpheus bc she kinda is.
We get all of our biz outta the way in the first 10min but I’ve managed to meet somebody who talks as much as I do, if not more.
I try not to get annoyed w myself
But I can’t help but get annoyed just bc it’s my wind down time and I wanna wind down w my friends
Except she’s praising me really highly and telling me stories and I know that this isn’t all fer me, it’s fer her, too.
So I listen on.
And I’m sitting outside of my friend’s house and then I’m walking and I’m trying to politely wrap up but I don’t know how bc she’s clearly trying to convey something to me and I’m like that child that’s too antsy to sit and listen
She’s telling me real shit about myself and I’m in it, you know?
She tells me all this shit I need to hear bc I certainly don’t tell myself often enough
Like how I minimize the work I do and the impact it has on people
Or how I tend to downplay my talents
Or even just rule myself out of nice things
And I can’t tell if I’m doing it that very moment by staying on the phone or not so I’m annoyed by the juxtaposition of it all bc yes, I do these things but it’s not like I mean to or I’m not trying to quit
All the sudden, I’m feeling all the efforts I put in as far as building myself and someone I look up to is telling me I’m shining, I’m Fucking shining
And it’s too much, it’s overwhelming
My eyes start welling up on my friend’s porch after sitting outside fer an hr bc my manager is randomly telling me I’m doing a good job yet all i wanna do is be w my friend’s and not think about any work
I just came out of work where I did two jobs worth and processed my life on top of it plus half a crossword
All I wanted to do was wind down w my friends
That’s all I wanted
But I always get so much more and sometimes I don’t even know what to do w it all bc I don’t always know how to contain them, let alone coexist w them
And I missed everything
I missed everything bc a voice on a phone was telling me what I needed to hear to feel like all the work I’m doing is worth it
But it is, bc I know
I don’t always know why my clients come back but they do and I honor them each time I see them
I don’t always know what I do good but it works out
And Morpheus was trying to tell me what it is that makes me special and I just wanted wine and to kiss my lover and to hug my friends
And I was frustrated bc I know I’m special but I don’t always know why or how, I didn’t know why we were talking about me so much
She was trying to convey something and I am v clearly struggling w it or not ready
I’m not meaning to sell myself short or anything I just can’t wrap my head around why I wasn’t able to do the thing I planned on doing tonight
Why tnight, yknow, to tell me all this about me?
Why was it so important to tell me all this?
I’m upset bc there is no reason to be upset besides being derailed and sitting outside fer an hour.
I’m upset bc my success is like a fucking secret life I don’t know how to share v well.
My family doesn’t hear this, and they're the ones who need to; it’s just not the same from me
I don’t get a lot of grown ups praising me like Morpheus was and it’s no wonder I both want to listen and to shake them off
It’s not v often I get a grownup who understands the work I do, we do, and praises me fer it
I am so used to working anonymously and letting my work speak of my earnest efforts
I’m upset bc I work so hard and barely know how to feel proud of myself fer it without first taking myself down a notch about the things I could do // could do better.
Which is everything, but that’s everybody and that’s also v subjective
I am upset bc I wanted to New Moon w my friends but I was on a work related phone call fer an hr instead and I already work a lot
My time is precious and my friends are precious and whether or not it mattered to them, it mattered to me.
And I was upset bc no amount of working proves anything but yer too Fucking busy to spend time doing other things that matter to you
Like spending time w yer loved ones
I’m upset bc my dad worked all the time and I told myself I’d be more present bc that’s just as important if not more
I’m upset bc I don’t feel like I’m fulfilling that promise even though I had a great day overall but it didn’t end like I planned and I was just tired of waiting
Bc sometimes I feel like I’m always waiting fer my turn to do what I want and then my turn never comes
And it doesn’t feel fair bc what I want feels so simple
But it never really is
I just wanted to share time w my friends bc it was wind down time and I was done working.
And I’m really upset about it bc it’s like I’m never done working sometimes
Then I get so crabby I need to be alone bc that’s not how I want to spend time w folx I love
Even when they are sweet n call me to check in n shit like
I need to take a fucking trip
