¶•¶•¶•¶•¶•¶•¶•¶•¶•¶•¶•¶

Carriages lined the front of the imperial palace and maids and butlers moved quickly putting different boxes inside, each box holding the various belongings of the discarded Emperor.

A happy murmur spread through the working servants as they carried the bags eagerly and dropped them each their respective carriage.

The devil omega was finally getting kicked out.

The being that had been ' terrorizing ' their kind Emperor and kind saint.

The one who was causing the wrath of the gods and goddesses to fall on them.

The idiot that had an unhealthy obsession in trying to emperor despite it being obvious he wanted nothing to do with him.

The heathen that was given the Trovian Empire a bad name to outsiders.

He was finally been shipped out of the castle grounds.

And to the North part of all places.

It was a fitting place. Snow savages and devils were sure to get along.

The people of the eastern part of the empire had cheered and celebrated when the Emperor had told them the news. There kind Emperor had listened to their worries and had taken action, by removing the devil from their land.

" We're finally going to be a pure and holy land once more "

" When that demon is gone I'm sure the lands are going to be more fertile "

" Yeah! I bet next year's harvest is going to be amazing because of the gods will put their blessings on us for getting rid of that stain. "

The people could hardly contain their excitement at the news, because what followed after that was the imperial family releasing the date of the wedding between their Emperor and beloved saint.

The servants worked faster to try and get the h/c lord's things packed so he could leave faster.

" My my ~ look how fast their moving. They should at least have the heart to contain their excitement. Wouldn't want that man's feelings to get hurt now ~ " a playful voice teased slight as he watched the betas scurry around, his silver eyes lightning up at the sight finding it amusing.

The Imperial triplets stood in front of the steps leading to the entrance of the palace, knights surrounding them in to provide a well armoured meat shield.

" And why should they think about that trashy omega's feelings. It's bad to lie you know. What's the point of hiding it Brother Curtin. Everyone hates him and seeing this will be a reminder that he's not welcomed here so he won't try to ever come back " Cosette's pompous voice replied, her silver eyes lit up with glee as she watched the sight as well, her plump lips pulled up into a satisfied smirk.

Finally that bug would be gone and her family's reputation would be absolutely perfect again

" Besides, since when did you of all people start to care for that trash " the omega questioned as she narrowed her eyes sending an accusing glare to her older brother who put his hand on his chest as he let out a dramatic gasp .

" What do you mean by that? I've always cared about our former brother in law. I just think it would be a shame if he cried. Is it so wrong to care for him. Omegas are fragile you know and need to be dealt with delicately " the red haired male mused and someone scoffed causing the two siblings to turn their heads to look at the youngest of their group.

" Yeah right, you just want to see tears running down his face so you can jerk off to it later you freak " the young man said as he glared at the other.

Curtin didn't budge at the his younger brother's accusation, if anything the smirk that appeared on his thin lips said that he accepted the fact.

" Well it's not my fault he has such a cute crying face. That look of absolute despair sends tingles down my spine ~.

Nobody pulls it off better than he does. Besides it just shows he knows he's place. If he was as superior as us he should be able to suck it up and keep his cool instead of breaking down " the older of the three defended himself as he stared back into his brother's silver hues his smirk getting wider as he noticed a deep red shade start to become noticable in his eyes.

" Yeah brother Curtin is right! All he does is throw tantrums and burst into crocodile tears when he doesn't get his way. Your the one who gave him the divorce papers to sign. I bet he throw a bigger tantrum than his previous ones and shamelessly groveled on his knees to try and get you to help him. Such an unsightly thing doesn't deserve to be apart of our family. " The red haired woman said backing up her older brother and staring down at her younger daring him to argue back against her.

Calix clicked his tongue in annoyance and turned his head away from the two silently accepting his defeat as they both joined forces to bring him down and dismiss what he was saying. Like they did every single time.

Hi mind traveled back to the conversation he has had with his ex brother in law.

" You can write to me whenever you want and you need an ear to hear you out. We might not be family anymore, but I still see you as a little brother and I wouldn't want this to lose the relationship we've built together to just disappear "

The h/c man's soft voice rang in his ears and the young alpha felt the tip of his ears redden at the thought of the now beautiful man wanting to still keep in touch with him and hear about his opinions and thoughts. Just like he always had when they were younger.

He had listened to him and had been there to comfort him when his parents obvious favoritism towards his other siblings showed.

And what have you done for him to show you cared ?

A snarky voice whispered at the back of his head making the man's shoulders freeze as a sudden sense of dread filled him

You've done absolutely nothing to help~

It taunted.

He was someone who backed up your sorry ass when no else would. He risked his image in front of your brute of a father so you could escape punishment countless times and what do you do to repay him ? Nothing. You want to hide in your shell of low self-esteem and ignore his cries for help.

It continued and Calix could feel his body start to shake at the accusing words

' S..stop ' he tried to tell it

You haven't changed a bit. Your still a useless coward. You ignored how they were treating him because you were scared to face the exact same punishment. You stood by the side of these people who barely acknowledge your existence on hopes you'll receive praise

' Stop it '

A pathetic coward is what you'll always be. When he's gone who do you think everyone will start talking about? Why you of course. Everyone will start to notice how useless you, how you can't do anything right. They'll notice your nothing but a stain to the Vermillion family name. Who do you think will help you then? Absolutely no one, because the only person who cared about you is being sent away and the others don't give two shits about you.

' StOp iT! '

Awww what are you going to do now? Cry about it like you usually do? Cry about how nobody cares about you and how the world isn't fair boohoo. You don't deserve to do that. At least not yet, wait until you get your own cut of everyone being disappointed in you.

".….... It "

Hahaha. What can't handle the truth? Can't stomach the fact you know how everyones behavior is going to change towards you once they all notice how weak you are? Hahaha your even more pathetic than e thought.

" SHUT UP ! "

The sound of his own voice startled Calix out of his thoughts and he felt the trembling of his body get worse as he felt all eyes fall on him at his sudden out burst.

" Really?! Of all times it's now you decide to show your madness by suddenly shouting at no one out of the blue. Are you trying to bring a mockery to the family name? "

The younger man felt the colour drain from his cheeks at the new voice as the person walked down to join the three.

Calix swallowed a lump that had formed in his throat as he lowered his head down to scared to look up at the person and see the disappoinment and contempt swirling in their eyes.

" I... I'm sorry mother. Please forgive me for my actions. " Calix cursed himself for stuttering and felt the tips of his ears turn red as he heard Curtin laugh while Cosette scoffed mumbling something about how she forget about ' this imperfection '.

Evangeline's red eyes glared down at her youngest son wanting to speak up again at his foul attitude,but a soft voice interrupted her.

" Mother-in-law you shouldn't be too hard on Calix. He's still very young so you should be more careful with him " Leon's worried voice spoke up and everyone turned to look at the pretty man coming down the stairs dressed in his ceremonial grab and holding his staff, following closely behind him was Marrav with more knights.

The youngest alpha managed to stop himself from glaring at the blue haired omega knowing very well he would receive a beating if he was caught. With the way his eldest brother had his eyes watching his every move he was sure any slight agression he showed towards the saint would land him in the ' punishment room '. He didn't want that.

His back still ached from the whips they used on him last time.

" He's no longer a child. The boy is seventeen. At this age he can take a bride and start a family on his own. Please don't baby him to much Leon. That was what that tramp did that's why he's become like this " Evangeline replied, the older omega's eyes going to back to glare at Calix who still had his head down.

Leon's eyebrows furrowed softly as he put a hand on the older woman's shoulder his amethyst purple eyes showing concern.

" Still mother you shouldn't so hard on him. He's going through a tough. He's saying goodbye to someone he saw as a mother figure. So his emotions are going to be all over the place. That's very much understandable..... " The saint started his eyes trailing to look at his future brother-in-law, his lips pulling up into a soft smile when he noticed the younger man was staring at him with a mixture of anger and fear as his body trembled.

Leon's smile grow wider at the young alpha's reaction before turning his attacker back to the older woman, a spark of sadism lighting in his eyes as he noticed the furious look in her raging red eyes as she glared at her youngest pup a small growl leaving her lips.

" Really. You see that devil as a mother more than I who slaved away caring for you?! It's because of you my månå reserve got depleted. You were born as such a weakling that I was kind enough to give you some of my månå. Had I known it would have left me unable to use my own månå I would have left you be. "

Calix flinched as his mother moved towards, he had noticed her hand slowly rising and he closed his eyes ready for the impact.

" Mother calm down and behave yourself. Your causing a scene. You can do whatever when you get back inside but for now refrain from anything. "

Marrav's smooth voice spoke up stoping his mother in her tracks, his silver hues glanced at his youngest brother for a brief moment. "Besides Calix should be more mature now. I told him to cut off all contacts with it and I'm sure he wouldn't disobey his Emperor's words.... " The dominant started as he walked closer to his family, his right hand going to rest on his future mate's shoulder, leaning down to press a kiss to the blue haired man's cheeks chuckling softly as the omega stammered out his words, his cheeks turning a rosy pink colour as he tried and failed to hide his embarrassment.

" .... We don't need any member of this family keeping contact with it. Not only would that be a shame, it would give it ideas that there's still a place here for it. So I'm sure he followed my instructions when I told him to cut off all contacts with it. Right Calix ? "

Said male hastily nodded his head quickly replying a ' yes sir ' when Marrav's stare became harder.

" Haven't they finished packing up it's thing's already? They've been at this for an hour now "

Curtin's bored voice broke the tense silence drawing everyone's attention back to the servants still running around with arms filled with various boxes.

" What are they carrying? The packages look expensive. Did lord M/N buy anything before he left ? I didn't take him for someone to spend money so frivolously. " Leon said as a worried look crossed his eyes.

" Those poor things must feel so tired from carrying all that heavy load " the omegan saint said with a sympathetic voice.

" He didn't. It was that barbarian Empress. She's been sending him gifts none stop for the past month. She even sent more this morning. " Cosette complained folding her chest as she pouted.

She didn't understand why that barbarian woman was showering that trashy omega with all those expensive gifts.

She was obviously more beautiful.

She was perfect after all.

" ...... What ?.... "

Marrav was the one who spoke up, the shock evident on his face as he let his younger sister's words.

Shiva was sending it gifts?

She was trying to court the omega...

She was trying to court it while it was still on his property.

HOW DARE SHE ?!!

" O..ow M.. Marrav. Y..your hurting me.." leon's meek voice spoke up snapping the alpha out his thoughts making him realize his grip had tightened on the smaller male's shoulder.

A quick apology left the Emperor's lips as he leaned down to pepper kisses on the man to calm him down. Leon pouted a bit as his gaze drifted towards the the lavish gifts been carried about, his grip on his staff getting tighter as he forced down a small growl.

I should have killed him when I had the chance. He's becoming a torn in my side.

The larger omega thought his blood boiling a bit.

He had been losing control over people but by bit since the h/c man had recovered. The inner circle of the temple was in disarray at it.

Had he know that the man had suddenly changed in appearance he wouldn't have ever requested for Alvar to ever come and pray for him.

His ego had gotten him into this mess. He had wanted to shit on Aria a bit. See the woman grovel and beg him to help her.

Instead he had gotten overwhelmed by the h/c male's breathtaking beauty and is sweet scent and had to deal with his hold on the Pope and temple attendants slipping.

The h/c man was pitiful in his underdressed state.

And Alvar liked pitiful things.

Now he had the attention of the Pentigrian Empress on him and with the amount of gifts the saint was watching get carried away he was sure everyone knew what was going on.

She was courting him.

How did that thing manage to gain her favour ?

He had tried to and nearly had his head detached from his body by the swing of her sword and he caused the woman to despise him until the day he died.

Yet the h/c man had won her over so easily.

He had Marrav send him over there that in hope's of Shiva's anger falling on him and she would put her rage on the pathetic man. Kill him even. He had been expecting e corpse to come back, not a slightly happier omega.

Oh well he'll get rid of him today at least.

He had louis call some ' friends ' to help the h/c man and his party when they reached the border. He would be able to enjoy his lavish lifestyle soon enough and his toys would be under his control once more.

" Cosette you've known about this for a month and you didn't think it would be important to report such a thing to me " Marrav's cold voice spoke up as he turned his gaze to his sister who froze, her cheeks lighting up in embarrassment as she fiddled with her fingers looking away from her brother's stare.

" U...umm. I..I " the young red haired woman stuttered not knowing what to say.

" Your Majesty lord L/N seems to be coming " the stiff voice of the Emperor's secretary spoke up as he pointed over to three figures making their way towards them from the distance.

The sight shocking the people who had been waiting for them.

Lady Aria was dressed in thick clothes a small red thick wool hat,a pur white fur jacket a red ankle length skirt with small frills sewn at the bottom and black leather boots with small heels.

Her pretty face held a stoic expression, her red tinted lips pursed in a straight line as her golden eyes looked forward with no emotion behind them. The knight walking by her side had a similar expression on his face, but his thin peach lips were pulled down into a small scowl as his baby blue eyes stared forward, narrowing a bit as he noticed the imperial family from the distance.

His long pink locks was tied into a small low ponytail tail and was resting on his shoulder, like Aria he wore a thick clothes his been a thick navy blue jacket that had gold designs seen in them, the buttons looking like they were made of pure silver , he wore black pants and ankle length brown heeled boots. His sword hanged from the belt on his waist the silver tinted hilt shining in the sunlight.

The third was a raven haired man dressed in a butlers uniform, his appearance confusing a few of the people present and making a certain red haired woman's gaze light up as her red hues landed on his form.

The recessive alpha and omega both looked like royals , Basil had gotten more handsome than the last time they last saw him. But what caught everyone's attention was the white bundle of fur blankets the recessive alpha was carrying almost possessively, then they noticed the locks of h/c hair peeking out from the opening.

Once the three reached forward aria courtesied while Basil did his best to bow with his h/c lord snuggled tightly in his arms. " I greet the silver dragon of the Empire and I pay my respect to the silver flames. And I greet the Holy saint of the land, the blessed pure lilly given to us by the gods " the raven haired woman greeted with practiced ease her voice dull and monotone, it was lacking the emotions everyone present wanted to hear.

It lacked anger. It lacked rage, it lacked the futile desperation of a last plea. Instead it held disinterest.

Like she didn't care that her moving away from the eastern part of the empire wasn't going to destroy the trade business she had used her sweat and blood to build up, only for them to take it all away from her.

Basil followed in the lady's footsteps, saying his greetings , his scowl from earlier gone as he greeted them with a straight face.

Leon stared at the two honestly getting irked at their expressionless attitude before turning attention to the h/c man in the knights arms, smiling a bit to himself as he noticed the lack the sweet scent coming the former emperor.

Good! He didn't need that taking away the attention from the people around him..

' it's nice to see you've been doing fine as well Lady Aria " the blue haired man's chirpy voice greeted back as a smile appeared on his lips, a confused expression soon took over as he directed his attention towards M/N.

" Umm is Lord L/N okay ?

The blue haired omega asked worry evident in his voice as he stared at the raven haired women who have him a small smile.

" He came down with a small fever last night and hadn't fully recovered, but he should be fine later in the day. Thank you very much for your concern your holiness " the brown skinned woman replied, her smiling growing a tad bit larger when she heard someone scoff at her words.

" Did he honestly cry himself into a fever? How pathetic. You should all be going now, looking at the three of you make me sick " Cosette's voice spoke up as her silver eyes stared down at the three, flickering over to the beta in their midst for a brief second before going back to the others.

" Now now~ Cosette you shouldn't be so mean. What if you make the omega cry again " Curtin's voice teased softly watching the two for any sort of reaction. " But it's the truth. I don't like to sugarcoat things and I'm definitely not going to do so for this trashy omega " the young red haired woman replied.

" The two of you should calm down. As much as it irritates me to look at these things we have to keep up etiquette " their mother replied silencing the two. Calix and Marrav watched in silence, the younger biting the inside of his cheek to refrain himself from saying anything that would get him in trouble, while the older simply didn't feel like interfering.

Aria still with the smile on her glossy lips waited for them to finish before speaking up.

" We'll be taking our leave now. Since we're going to the north we don't need Felix's assistance anymore. Thank you very much Princess for sending him to us when we needed a helping hand " at her words the dark haired beta moved forward towards his owner, internally cringing at the look the former Empress sent his way.

He was going back to his cage again.

" Take him with you. "

The Emperor's voice surprised everyone. " .. what ? " Aria blinked owlishly confused for a moment.

" If he provided do much help then take him along with you. There more than enough servants to fill his space here. Think of it as my parting gift to you " the dominant alpha hummed out as he focused his attention back on his future mate showering his cheeks with kisses making the saint squeak and whine once more.

The dark skinned woman swallowed back a protest, very much aware of what the taller man was trying to do.

He was planting a spy on them right in front of their faces with out the decency to even cover up his intentions.

Evangeline would have argued as well but with how the man's phermones swayed in the air made the two women hold their tongues.

" Thank you for the ' gift '. A good day to you all " and with that The three turned and made their way to the carriage waiting for them, the beta butler following hastily behind, failing at hiding the smile on his lips.

Leon watched as the carriages began their journey, his purple eyes flashing red for a brief moment before it went back to it's normal purple hue.

He couldn't wait to hear the news of their arrival~

Unlike what this chapter suggests I very much love Calix. He's my other baby.

if everyone remembers the youngest triplet in the old version they both go through the same neglect, except his was emotional while Calix's own is both physical and verbal and unlike his past self he doesn't have the power to fight back.

Leon absolutely hates his guts for refusing to accept him.

Okay I need to give some thoughts on Sonic IDW 50 cause I was finally able to read it so MAJOR spoilers below.

I feel like the best way for me to talk about this would be in sections so--

Belle

I love Belle, definetly one of my favorite new inclusions from the comics (which honestly isn’t saying too much because I love ALL of the new inclusions so let’s put her in top 5).

In all honesty I was a little dissapointed with her finally confronting Eggman. It wasn’t bad by any means just not as much as I wanted. But I do like how, without outright saying he remembers her, the writing makes it clear he remembers creating her but that he still isn’t Mr. Tinker. Doesn’t treat her with any fondness but knows her name. I do love that he asked her to join him after seeing how useful she was, and when she refused, he actually let her go just fine. Could’ve had Metal destroy her then and there but he’s perfectly fine letting her walk away. Good little moment there.

Also, Badnik siblings fans finally got their interaction and I am very happy for them. Now when does she meet Omega and/or Gemerl???

Tails vs Kit

I don’t know what I was expecting from this fight but I LOVED it. Tails is a fighter, obviously, but he’s never been nearly as actiony as Sonic, so it was great to see him mostly just dodge and try to talk Kit down.

Kit’s reliance on Surge’s needs have finally kicked Starline in the ass because without her around he just doesn’t know what to do aside from keeping Tails away from helping Sonic or stopping Surge. The way he was genuinly taken aback by Tails’ kindness towards him was kinda fucking heartbreaking, this poor little guy deserves the world. The fact that Tails can calm him down by simply complimenting his tech and relating to him on being different is so nice and a very good moment for Tails and of course he beats him by outsmarting him, Finally Tails has good moments again!

Also just constantly in love with any panel. that gives Kit the evil anime eyes I love this guy’s design it’s so good.

Sonic vs Surge

This is the big one. Most of the issue is dedicated to it after all, and rightfully so. I get where people are coming from when they think Sonic wasn’t written well but, guys, come on, he doesn’t know who the fuck Surge is. She showed up, threw him against a wall, and started going on about how much she hated him, a typical Tuesday for Sonic. He started to catch on that Surge has gone through a LOT more than he knows but didn’t get a chance to truly sympathize with her before the fight ended.

I think the problem here, and this is a good problem for writing, is that Sonic is treating Surge like he treats all his enemies. He’s cocky, he’s quippy, he’s forgiving and tries to give them a second chance. He’s like that with everyone.

The issue is Surge HATES that. She was designed to hate and destroy him and he doesn’t share nearly the same animosity towards her and, in her eyes, doesn’t even treat her like a real threat. It’s a pretty good clashing of characters.

And as for the actual fight my word it was amazing. Felt like something ripped straight out of Dragon Ball, fitting with how many parallels Surge and Kit have to Androids 17 and 18, even if it was apparently unintentional. I gotta say I’m a sucker for villains refusing help from heroes even if it costs them their life and Surge doing this while also getting the satisfaction of “getting the last hit” was superb. Can’t wait to see more of her in the future cause you’d be a fool to think she’s actually dead.

Eggman vs Starline

For a comic about Sonic the Hedgehog coming off of a mini series about Surge and Kit, this fight, by all accounts, should NOT be the highlight of the comic but holy fuck it IS.

This was amazing start to finish. Sonic Heroes is what got me into Sonic in the first place so I am HERE for the Egg Emperor being pulled out! It’s honestly just such a cool design for an Eggman robot, and of course Starline pulls out the Death Egg Robot because that things becoming as necessary to Sonic as Green Hill and Chemical Plant (I still love it though good robot design). An Eggman mech battle was NOT on my bingo card.

Egg Emperor was made even better with Starline pulling out the team blast (on his own) and I love how Eggman used that AGAINST him! After such a blunder with having no backup plan for the Metal Virus, the way he absolutely demolishes Starline and uses his own ego, fanboy nature, and tech against him is fucking amazing. New triple power glove? Used the Egg Emperor to bait him to use all its power. Hypnotizing glove? He told him about that, he remembered, and planned for it. Barbed ankle? YA YA YEET!!!

This issue finally made Eggman scary again. Yeah he’s a goofy, egg shaped scientist but what sets him apart from someone like Bowser is that he is CAPABLE and when he’s at his absolute A-game he is fucking powerful and terrifying.

As for Starline. MAN what a send off for the character. He’s easily had some of the strongest presence out of any of the new characters and I’m glad we’re finally done with him. I loved him but I was kinda worried he would escape, be upset his plan failed again, and try something else. But no! He fails and is just fucking TORN by the fact that no matter how much he plans, he can’t beat Sonic, and he CERTAINLY isn’t better than Dr. Eggman.

I can’t find the source for this but I read that Ian Flynn confirmed that he dies here so I suppose this really is a send off for this wonderful homage to Dr. Finitevus. It was great while it lasted but hopefully this means Eggman and more new or old villains get chances to shine. Plus, supposedly Ian also said that if demand is high enough he could feesibly be brought back in the far future, which is standard comics affair, so I suppose it’s not goodbye, just, until next time you rat bastard.

Conclusion

It’s no Metal Virus arc but man I’ve loved Imposter Syndrome so far. It’s not quite over yet but issue 50 was a very neat wrap up of several plot threads and it was just such a good time.

Can’t wait to see Adrenaline Dubs do it, even if they are way way behind lmao

Greetings Siblings of the church! I decided to get up early and talk to Phil. I'd been up all night debating on what I was to do, and finally, I came to an agreement of going to Phil, since I knew him better than anyone else. Strangely, when I left my room, Swiss wasn't there today. Maybe Papa ended my punishment a day early? Or maybe Swiss just decided the punishments were worth it on his end, and didn't care. Oh well. I guess I'm on my own today.

Since Papa Copia usually sleeps in until 10:30 am (on the dot, every day!) I was able to do some work in my office, grab something to eat, and help out in the infirmary a little before leaving to go see Phil.

For the siblings who don't know Phil(Or for the newcomers who have no clue who or what Phil is), Phil is one of the highest ranking ghouls we have in the church. Papa Copia told me once that Phil has been here longer than the church has actually been open, which is amazing. When I first came to the church, Phil and Papa Copia were the first two to help me fit in better with my peers. Phil is also the reason I'm cardinal so young. I wanted to be as cool as him, so I got straight A's in my classes in demonology and the like and worked my way up from sibling, to Priest, to Cardinal.

While headed to Phil, I stopped by the main room to pray for Satan, but.. I couldn't find my rosary. Headed back to my room, looked through there, but I couldn't find it anywhere, which meant I must have dropped it somewhere outside. The only place I could think of was that weird ghouls place, so I'll have to go back soon to grab it- it wouldnt do for a high ranking member of the church to not have their rosary, and besides, it was a gift from Papa Copia for becoming a cardinal.

Phil was lounging around in his office when I finally arrived, and, as always, he was reading some romance book. Abba was playing in the background(Phil really, really likes them), and he didn't seem too suprised when I walked in. I sat in the chair on the other side of him, and I told him how my week had been going so far. I hadn't seen him since last year around when Christmas was happening(While the church doesn't celebrate Christmas, and only celebrates Yule, some of the siblings still do, if only for the presents.), so it was a long and lengthy talk. He interjected when needed, but just let me ramble for a while.

He got all weird, however, when I started talking about the ghoul. I decided to leave saltarian out- just because two people- Papa Primo, and Jacob- had told me to leave it be, and leave him alone- but I did mention the ghoul, and the chest, and how I was sure I left my rosary at the place. I told him I was going back, and he told me to stay away from the ghoul. I asked why, and he got all tense before explaining part of the story. Atleast, I'm pretty sure it's part of the story.

We all know(Or rather, siblings, you SHOULD know this information.) that usually, when Ghouls have done their purpose, they're sent back to the pit, baring a few important ghouls. Papa Terzo's big ghoul Omega is still on the surface helping him, and so is Papa Copia's ghouls Aether and Sunshine. Papa Primo and Secundo's ghouls were sent back the moment they were done with them, which should have happened with a few of Papa Terzo's ghouls. The ghoul Alpha was sent back correctly, yes, but there were four ghouls who didn't take going back to the pit well.

Mist, Ifrit, Pebble and Zephyr. When faced with being sent back to the pit- Mist because she wasn't the right element for Papa Copia and refused to change her element, Ifrit, Pebble, and Zephyr because Papa Terzo was done with them- they wrecked havoc across the church, and nearly killed a couple of Papa Copia's ghouls before fleeing the building. The one I'd seen matched the description of Ifrit, the old fire ghoul that apparently had a temper, and would kill me if I wasn't careful.

I asked if they ever came into the church, and thankfully, Phil said no. They'd be sent back to the pit if they did. Honestly, I think they should have just kept them around. If they're so dangerous, keeping them around until they found a better way to get rid of them would have been better. I promised Phil that I wouldn't do anything stupid like going back for my rosary, and he told me he'd get it for me himself. I thanked him, and headed to the library in order to do some studies. School will be starting back up soon, and I do not want to be left behind. Papa Copia made me his assistant because I was able to balance work and school well. Maybe I'll even find something on the ghouls in here. Wish me luck that I won't run into Papa Copia, siblings.

Happy 1 year Tumblr return!!! I've loved every moment I've gotten to spend you! Here's to more years! 🥰🖤

For the prompts: Fluff/Relationship

19. “For the most part, I am, in fact, an idiot. But I fully admit to it, which should count for something.”

Just Cross and Omega in a sniper's nest. Hanging out, being siblings. Maybe Omega is dishing out the burns over comms to the rest of the Batch gets to chime in.

I've loved every moment with you, too, Deathy!! 💜 You really are one of my dearest friends here! Thank you for making this past year amazing!

I most certainly can do this request for you! Absolutely 😊 (I'll just say it's post Imperial Crosshair and he's come back to the squad, where he freaking should be!)

"Keeping Watch"

19. “For the most part, I am, in fact, an idiot. But I fully admit to it, which should count for something.”

Pairing: Crosshair & Omega

***

Omega sat down and spoke into her comm, "Hunter, we're in position." Then she looked over to her companion and said excitedly, "Thanks for letting me keep watch with you, Crosshair."

Crosshair just huffed and droned, "Don't mention it."

The two sat on the ledge, keeping an eye out for any signs of movement so them and the others could enact their plan of attack. So far, there was nothing. Omega was starting to get bored and was wanting to try and strike up conversation with Crosshair...as best she could, anyway.

"It's good to have you back, you know," she told him.

"Is it, though?" he asked.

"Yeah, it is! Why would I lie?" she questioned in return.

Crosshair's head turned to look at her. "I did terrible things and for a while, I made all of you not trust me. I feel as though I was asked back out of pity."

Omega was surprised to hear him say that. "That's not true!" she cried out. "You're our brother, Crosshair. We always wanted you back...even if things were rough for a while. You made mistakes; we all do. I've definitely made a lot, too. Hunter could tell you all about them."

"I believe you," Crosshair replied. There was a small silence before he then spoke up, “I will admit, but only to you...for the most part, I am, in fact...an idiot. But I fully admit to it, which should count for something.”

Omega smiled, satisfied at his words. "I definitely think it does," she said, laying a gentle hand on his shoulder.

Crosshair looked over his shoulder at her and a tiny, pleased grin slowly formed on his mouth.

"Well, it's about time he admitted it."

Hunter's voice suddenly speaking out made both Crosshair and Omega jump and Omega's face went hot as she realized...she had left her comm on and the boys had heard everything.

"You've got to be kidding me," Crosshair groaned, putting a hand over his face.

"Crosshair admitting he's an idiot...I never thought I'd live to see it," then came Tech's voice through the comm.

"You and me both," added Echo.

"Oh, shut up...!" said Crosshair loud enough for them to hear.

Wrecker's laugh came through before saying, "We still love you, Crosshair!"

That just made Crosshair roll his eyes and scoff in disgust.

"Oh, lay off, guys," said Omega into her comm before turning it off for the time being. Then she looked at Crosshair, sheepishly grinned and said, "Sorry...! I didn't know it was still on."

He frowned for a second, but then shrugged. "I guess I can let it slide...this one time," he said, giving her a side-eye glance. "But so help me, if that happens again, I'm telling Hunter to keep you on the ship."

"No!" she exclaimed, shoving his arm.

Crosshair just snickered teasingly.

Read on AO3 Here Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4 Part 5

View Art Here And here And here

The pregnancy was difficult for Peter, and Tony hovered constantly as they dealt with complications that arose left and right. Tony hired specialist after specialist to ensure his mate got the medical attention he needed, especially when they found out he was carrying a full litter of three. As Peter grew bigger, Tony was amazed that his tiny mate managed to hold their kits inside him, but he also worried because the omega serval’s small body was not made to carry so much, and bedrest seemed unavoidable.

In the end though, it all worked out fine. The kits came a bit early but they were healthy and Peter bounced back quickly. One of the three kittens was a black tiger like Tony and was much bigger than his two younger siblings, which was what had put so much stress on Peter’s system.

It was worth it though, seeing his mate cuddled up on their bed with their kits tucked safely around him, purring away in their mother’s presence.

“You’re so amazing,” Tony whispered, climbing in behind Peter and spooning the smaller omega. “You brought our kits into this world, and look how perfect they are.”

“You say that now, but just wait till they’re older,” Peter murmured back sleepily. “They’re going to be trouble. Mother’s intuition.”

“That’s ok. We can handle trouble,” Tony promised, nipping at Peter’s neck. As he did, he caught a whiff of sorrow on his mate’s scent. “I’m sorry, kitten. I know you wished May could be a part of this.”

Peter stiffened, then shuddered and carefully rolled so he could bury his face into Tony’s chest.

“I just, this should be a happy time, and I am happy,” Peter cried softly. “But I wanted her to be here too.”

“I know, and I’m sorry. Maybe she’ll come around,” Tony offered, though he knew it was a lie.

May had tried to get the courts involved again, so he had sent Nat to handle it. The beta would never cause them trouble again. Nat was the only one that knew though, and she had covered her tracks thoroughly. Even if May’s body were ever found, it would simply look like she had gone off the rails and overdosed on drugs.

Peter would be heartbroken, of course, but Tony had warned her what would happen. He would do anything for his family.

“I just, I thought she would understand,” Peter said, oblivious to the darker turn Tony’s thoughts had taken. “She- she always said I was like the kits she couldn’t have, and then she turned around and told me I couldn’t be pregnant with ours. Just look at them. They’re so precious, and yet she acted like we should have-”

“Shhhh, it’s ok, omega,” Tony interrupted, purring softly to soothe his mate as his tail wrapped around the omega. “The kits are fine, and you’re fine and nothing is going to happen to any of you. You have my word.”

Peter nodded, though his ears still drooped. Tony didn’t let up, nuzzling and nipping at his mate until Peter was putty in his arms.

“Rest now,” Tony said firmly. “The kits will need your attention soon enough and you aren’t fully healed yet.”

“Yes, alpha,” Peter murmured sleepily, rolling back over to curl around their children.

----------------------

As the kits grew, their personalities grew too, and Tony took great pride in them. James was an alpha black tiger like him, and from the time he could walk, he followed Tony around when he was home. When his alpha father wasn’t home, he hovered over his omega mother and siblings, growling at anyone who made them cry. Bucky and Tony encouraged the behavior, much to Peter’s exasperation.

The omega twins, Ben and Harley, were a pair of mischief makers that had none of their mother’s gentle calmness. Peter just sighed anytime there was a crash or screech in another room, because ten times out of ten, it was the twins. James kept them from getting hurt but didn’t save any of the hapless victims that fell into their traps. Only Peter and Tony were safe from their machinations, as they loved their mother too much to hurt him while respecting Tony’s place as alpha.

“I really wish you’d have a talk with them,” Peter groused as he deconstructed yet another trap their 5 year olds had put together. “It was cute when they were only two or three, and it was marbles on the floor or strategically placed legos as caltrops, but this is a bit much.”

Tony wondered if Peter wasn’t right. Their kits had all inherited their intelligence from both of them, and it showed in the elaborate glitter bomb rigged to fridge. Peter had been lucky to catch sight of the trigger before pulling it open.

“I’ll give them a room or something,” Tony said instead. In their line of work, he didn’t want to discourage defensive capabilities after all. “Somewhere to practice and then make everyone use it as training.”

“Not in the house,” Peter said firmly. “Put it on a different floor or something. I don’t want them to ‘forget’ which room was ok.”

“Of course,” Tony agreed, already planning which rooms he could add to the training areas for the boys to practice in. He also made a mental note to get them proper lab space so their inventing was supervised. Those pieces were clearly torn from something else, and he dreaded Peter finding the mechanical corpses of whatever appliance they had sacrificed for their craft.

Peter tolerated a lot, especially not having been born into this life, but even he had limits. Taking apart his blenders or toasters just happened to be one of them.

Tony drew back from his thoughts when he realized Peter had stopped moving. The omega’s tail was low and his ears down, and Tony could smell the heavy sorrow floating off of him.

“Hey, what’s wrong?” Tony asked, drawing his mate in. “I promise I’ll talk to them, no more traps in the house.”

“No, I just- where did the time go?” Peter asked, gesturing to the mechanism in his hand. “How are our babies already doing stuff like this? Am I- are we making sure they’re happy? I mean why, why do they even do this? Are they scared and want to make sure they can make things safe?”

“Hey, no,” Tony said firmly. “That’s definitely not the problem. They do this because they’ve got your brain and mine, which is dangerous enough, but they also know that they’ve got their mama to hide behind. And everyone is afraid of their papa, so they can prank whoever they want with impunity.”

“Not everyone,” Peter said with a snort, and Tony smiled as his mate’s scent cleared.

“No, not their brave Oma who yells at me for staying too late at the office and throws pillows at me when he thinks I’m being ridiculous,” Tony agreed. “All of which is healthy for them to see. When they’re older, they’ll have to behave properly, but for now, this isn’t truly hurting anyone. They know where that line is.”

“You mean James knows and rides herd on them,” Peter said with a huff. “Ben and Harley would be wild children without him.”

“I’m sure you’d keep them in line just fine too,” Tony said, leaning down to kiss Peter’s forehead softly. “But this is good. They’re learning to respect the alphas without me having to be the bad guy. James has a good head on his shoulder, just like both of his namesakes.”

“You’re right,” Peter sighed, leaning into Tony’s arms. “I guess I’m just worrying about nothing.”

“That’s alright. I’ll make sure to remind you that everything is fine,” Tony promised. “And that our children will still need you when they’re older too. They’re just spreading their wings a little.”

“It was easier to feel like I was useful when they were tiny and still needed help,” Peter said wryly. “For all that I didn’t have a minute to breathe some days, I knew they needed me. Now, it’s always ‘I don’t need help mom’ or ‘I can do it myself.’ And I know, it's just part of growing up but I miss it. I miss when they were little kits.”

“It’s ok to miss it,” Tony assured him, pulling him in tighter for another hug. “They were awfully cute back then. Now, they’re just little hellions.”

Peter smacked Tony’s arm but still smiled at the alpha as he snuggled back into his arms.

“I- I wish we could have more,” Peter whispered, like it was some shameful secret. “I know I shouldn’t, but I do. Every time I see little kits, I just want more.”

Tony frowned at the tone and pulled back so that he could look at Peter properly.

“Omega, if you want more kits, then we’ll have more kits,” Tony said seriously.

“But, we already have three, and-”

“And we can have as many as you want,” Tony interrupted. “I assure you, I have more than enough to take care of any kits you’re willing to give me. Plus, you know how much I love stuffing you full.”

Tony nipped at their mating mark, and then kissed his way across Peter’s soul mark.

“Aaah Alphaaa,” Peter groaned, and Tony grinned as he picked the omega up.

“Come on, Omega, let’s go practice.”

Sins of the Past: Ohana Means Family

Summery: A collection of drabbles set in my modern au where the Bad Batch raise Omega after rescuing her from the abusive hands of their mother. In this chapter Crosshair takes care of Omega whilst she is sick.

Notes: Happy Birthday @xoxo-40782 ! This chapter is dedicated to you! I hope that you have an amazing birthday! Everyone should check out their bad batch modern au!! It is amazing!! And I used a lot of inspiration such as Crosshair liking Ghibli movies and having issues with his similar appearance to Nala Se in this fic!! I hope that you guys enjoy!! Xxxxxxxx

Ao3

FF.net

They had been warned that this could happen. Obi-Wan had told them that having been trapped in that Hell of a house all her life, Omega hadn't had the chance to be exposed to all those childhood germs other kids did, leaving her more susceptible to them now. And a month after starting school, it finally happened.

Omega had woken up on Monday morning with the worst cold Crosshair had ever witnessed. Coughs had racked her shivering body that was half delirious with fever.

The boys had preciously decided on a rota to take care of Omega on sick days, and on Friday it was finally Crosshair's turn.

Thankfully her fever had broken by now but she was still bunged up with snot, so Hunter had decided to keep her off the rest of the week, hoping that she would be fighting fit by Monday.

So all Crosshair had to do was keep an eye on her.

Which was kind of the problem.

He had managed to get over most of his ill placed jealously after his talk with Hunter, but unfortunately Crosshair was well aware that trauma didn't disappear that easily.

There was no denying that any of them were Jango's offspring, with his apparent super spreader genes. But where the rest of their siblings were all blunt corners, he and Omega were sharp edges with their pointed features and lighter hair that was unmistakably the mark of Nala Se.

And Crosshair hated it. He hated it so much he once smashed the mirror in the bathroom which Ninety-Nine never replaced. He could deal with his own appearance. Shaving his hair till it went grey and getting a tattoo across his face helped.

But then Omega came into their lives. And whilst Crosshair would be eternally grateful that she never had to step foot in their sorry excuse for a mother's home again, sometimes just being around her hurt.

To see that same face that tortured him his whole life in the innocent one of a little girl felt like a cruel joke that the universe was playing to specifically spite him.

He had resorted to avoiding her which wasn't easy in a small house packed with six people. However he figured it was the better option than accidently snapping at her with something he knew that he would immediately regret. He was pretty sure Hunter at least had noticed although his older brother hadn't mentioned anything about it, yet. He knew it was something he'd have to confront eventually.

He just didn't think that day would be today.

Crosshair sat on the sofa, whilst Omega was bundled up on the other, Gonky curled up on one side of her and a stack of tissue boxes on the other, as she watched TV. Having missed out on the past decade of pop culture, Hunter was trying to rectify that, starting with the Disney classics after Omega had asked what a Disney Princess was when one of her classmates had made fun of her for not knowing. They were currently up to Lilo and Stitch. Whilst Crosshair was much more of a Ghibli fan, he didn't mind the colourful cartoon musicals, not that he would ever admit it.

He kept one eye on Omega whilst scrolling through his phone. Replying to the texts Hunter sent about every five minutes reassuring him that yes their sister was indeed still alive and ignoring the messages from his asshole of a boss Rampart who was still giving him shit about taking a day off even though Aayla had offered to cover some of his sessions for him.

The movie had barely finished playing when Omega burst into tears.

Shit, Crosshair thought, rushing over to the girl.

"Are you hurt? What's wrong?" He asked. Hunter was going to kill him if anything happened to her on his watch.

"Sh-She... she's just like me!" Omega managed choke through her sobs.

"What do you mean?" He asked, not understanding where this conversation was going.

Omega pointed at the screen where the characters were currently visiting a montage of Elvis exhibits as the credits rolled.

"Lilo! She's Polynesian! She is raised by her siblings! She's just like me!"

That was when Crosshair realised she wasn't crying because she was hurt. Happiness might not be the correct to describe word it either. It was hard to put into words the freeing ideal of being known.

And God had Crosshair realised just how badly he'd fucked up.

Growing up, if he'd seen a movie like that with someone like him in it. Maybe he would've been able to recognise himself in someone else instead of feeling isolated in a body that nobody else could understand.

He hadn't even realised he'd pulled Omega into a hug until Gonky tried to jump between them to get in on the action.

Omega's sobs subsided into giggles as Gonky's tongue locked away her tears, tickling her face.

"Let her go you big lump." Crosshair told the husky, nudging him back to the girl's side. Since he was now over here anyway, Crosshair figured he might as well stay and settled into Omega's over side. He picked up the nearby remote.

"It might be garbage, a lot of the Disney sequels are but they made a second film if you want to watch that?"

Omega nodded eagerly, curling against his shoulder, as though it was the most natural thing in the world, even though it was the first time she had ever done it before.

To distract himself from getting teary eyed as well, Crosshair pressed play.

I hope you guys enjoy this version of Tech, I thoroughly have.

Love oo

Gym Membership Master List | Main Master List

Tech and Zaina were finishing their workout by the far west wall of the gym, both sweaty from their workout, they’d already spent the better part of an hour building up to deadlifts, each bringing out the other’s competitive nature.

“I’m surprised you did not ask Hunter to help you”

“Well, as much as I enjoy Hunter’s company, I don’t necessarily want to spend every single waking moment with him.”

“Really?” Tech asked his eyebrow crooked upward, “I thought you two were …”

“Oh we are, it’s just …” Zaina placed the barbell down in front of her, turning to look at Tech, “I mean you know what it’s like when you’re dating someone, as much as you enjoy your time with them, and don’t get me wrong, I love spending time with Hunter and Omega, it’s…” Zaina couldn’t stop the giant smile that graced her lips, “they’re amazing and everything I could have wanted, but sometimes it’s nice to have a moment to yourself, or to spend time with someone other than them, just for a little bit. You know?”

“I suppose. Granted most of my girlfriends end up breaking up with me, because I forget I’m dating when I delve into a project.”

“I’m sorry, that sucks. They should be understanding at least”

“Oh no, you misunderstand. It is not that they are not understanding. In fact, it is quite the opposite, I once dated a woman for seven months before she finally broke up with me. Granted I was extremely consumed with my project for the better part of six months, out of those seven.”

“Oh. I see. Can I ask you something?” Zaina tilted her head to have her follow him towards the juice bar.

“Of course”

“Is there anyone now that has your eye?”

“Hmm” Tech took the seat beside her, thinking about the question, was there anyone? There was, but the chances of her being interested in him, that was another thing entirely “Why do you ask?”

“Cause there’s this woman” Zaina began slowly watching Tech’s expression carefully, “I believe you met her, when I had you guys over for games night about two weeks ago” Tech shrugged his shoulders, “she’s one of the girls I work with, blonde hair, gray eyes, very pretty.”

Tech remembered her, she was very pretty, but as interesting as a piece of blank paper, “Right, what about her?”

“She wanted your number, I said I would double check because I didn’t know what your status was or what your inclinations were; so would you be interested if she called you?”

Tech thought about it, he was unattached and maybe she would be fun for a few dates, but in the end it wasn’t his style. He wanted someone he could share ideas with, someone who would interest him not just physically but mentally as well, a quick fling was more up Crosshair’s alley “Thanks Zai for the offer but I’m good. She is …” Tech cleared his throat, scratching the spot behind his ear trying to think of the best way to explain what he meant, “as pretty as she is, she is not my type.”

“Well, what is your type?” Zaina asked, taking a sip of the drink Hunter had left in front of her after leaving a kiss on her forehead, which instantly caused her to look away abashed, yet there was still a coquettish smirk on her face as she looked towards Hunter.

“Zai, I am not sure I can explain it as easily as …”

“Hi Tech” Tech glanced up to see Kamarie, at seeing her beautiful smile his heart began to beat quickly, he felt as though he couldn’t breathe. If he could describe his ideal woman to Zai, well then that would have to be Kamarie, she was brilliant, funny, kind, beautiful and for some inexplicable reason she was his friend. She was the kind of woman you never forgot, at least to Tech she was.

Zai tapped his foot subtlety when he hadn’t said anything “Hello Kamarie, it’s a pleasure to see you”

“Not as great a joy as it is for me. In fact, it has been a while since the last time we met, is everything going well with you?”

He felt his throat go dry, and no amount of swallowing was helping the situation, “Yes,” he cleared his throat, glancing over to Zai, “have you met Zaina, this is Hunter’s girlfriend and Mel’s cousin” Tech motioned towards her, she’d been eyeing his interaction the whole time, Zaina pulled herself together, turning to look at Kamarie, holding out her hand readily with her usual friendly smile.

“Lovely to meet you, Kamarie. Take it, you're a friend of Tech’s?”

I was quick to take her hand, “Yes, we met a while back. He was kind enough to help me when a rather obnoxious and determined gentleman wanted more of my attention than I dared give him. He refused to accept my disinclination for what it was and proceeded to make his attempts to interest me even more forceful, which of course did not impress me even the slightest. As such, Tech interfered and promptly removed the gentleman from my presence with a promise should he attempt to influence my opinion in a manner that greatly distresses me, Tech would be the one to deal with him.”

Zaina glanced over to Tech, whose cheeks had a dark tint, “Wow, impressive Tech. You certainly know how to make an impression” Tech noticed the smirk on Zaina’s face, which he promptly tried to ignore.

“I did what any gentleman would have done” Tech waved off.

“I doubt that; you and your brothers were raised better than most” Zaina smirked.

Tech seemed to ignore Zaina’s statement completely as he turned his attention to me, “Kamarie, before time passes us, Bishop E3 to H6”

“Oh Tech, you must know such an action would only cause me to act in a manner to defend my Queen and King. Bishop G7 to H6 captures Bishop” I couldn’t help smirk at Tech, “As a man of skill and forthright, I imagined your attacks to be slightly more daring, unless I underestimated the skill with which we are playing.”

“Perhaps I wanted to provide a sense of calmness and wellbeing making sure you understood the gravity of the situation when I tell you, Queen D2 to H6 capturing your Bishop.” Tech looked so proud of his move a smile etched on his face that reached to his eyes, “I would suggest taking the time needed to fully consider the ramifications of your next move. I would greatly dislike the idea that you are leaving your royalty at their most vulnerable.”

I couldn’t hide the smile as I looked at Tech, I wouldn’t have expected anything less from him, “Ingenious, as always.” I looked away from him for a second and realized we had gathered a bit of an audience, I cleared my throat,” Tech, Zaina, Hunter, and Echo” I nodded to the four of them, a smile etched on my lips as I headed off to my workout.

Zaina looked from Kamarie’s retreating form back to Tech, “Okay, what the hell was that?”

“Oh we are playing a very intricate came of Chess, Zai”

“No. I know that; I mean the tension between the two of you” Zaina wiggled her eyebrows up and down.

“Oh, I felt that tension” Echo reinforced, he was biting his bottom lip keeping himself from laughing.

“Don’t bother, sarad’ika” Hunter stated as he passed Tech his drink, while winking at Echo.

“What? Why?” Zai looked from Tech to Hunter, “Tech, you want to tell her?”

“No”

“Come on” Echo nudged his brother

“Hunter” Tech’s tone was final, Hunter shrugged ignoring his younger brother and turning his attention to the woman who was beautiful inside and out, and had captured his heart completely, something that he didn’t think would’ve been possible.

“Fine, I’ll tell her.” Hunter leaned closer to Zaina, he took her hands in his, tracing her knuckles with his thumb, “He is heads over heels for her, has been for some time, right Tech?” Hunter glanced over to his brother, who simply glared at him as he chugged back his drink. He turned his attention back to Zaina, smirking as he continued, “I’m pretty sure she feels the same way Sard’ika, especially after that day Tech stepped in; but Tech is too cowardly to ask her out.”

“I am not as you say ‘cowardly,’ I simply do not wish to impose a desire she may have no inclination towards. I want to be her friend, rather than not being in her presence completely.”

Zaina bit her tongue to keep her from laughing at how adorable Tech was, “Do you notice how his speech pattern changed after she showed up?” Zaina teased smirking at Hunter’s nodding.

“If you both will excuse me,” Tech stood, irritated with the three of them the seemed to be studying him, “I have to change. I am meeting with one of our equipment vendors.”

“Oh of course, Tech” Hunter smirked, “a meeting” he teased, while he winked at Zaina.

Tech simply rolled his eyes, finishing his drink at the same time, walking away from the three of them. He wished he could be more forthright, more like Crosshair in that sense, being able to just ask or put himself in a position where he could potentially risk a friendship. After all, he never seemed to have any issues discussing how he felt towards someone; then again Crosshair never stayed with anyone long enough to make them valuable enough to treat with the dignity and respect. Tech wanted to be her friend and more than that he wanted to always treat her with respect and dignity, not as just something to occupy his time.

Tech scrubbed his skin harder than he realized, his frustration clearly evident on his irritated skin. He stepped out of the shower, wondering if he could take that step with her. He wasn’t a romantic per se, in fact he was most definitely not a romantic, according to his previous paramours he was the least romantic person they had ever come across. Granted, the only reason he was with most of them was because they asked him.

He didn’t want to think more about Kamarie, but no matter how hard he tried that smile, those eyes, that intelligence she demonstrated again and again, were permanently etched into his memory. What he needed was a night out, to forget what he was feeling. She was a brilliant engineer and the last thing she’d be interested in would be someone like him.

As Tech walked out of the locker room, he noticed Kamarie was sitting at the juice bar with Zaina, he wanted nothing more than to have his feet carry him over to them, to sit and listen to her, to hear her voice fill the space around him, listening to her discuss one subject or another, to hear her call his name yet again.

“Tech” It was almost as though his thoughts had granted his deepest wish, he glanced over to see Kamarie waving him over.

Before he even realized his feet were taking him to the very person, who he wished would become his world,“Yes?”

“I wondered if I may trouble you for some assistance with my latest project, as you know I’ve been having difficulties not just with the hydraulics, but the program coding focusing on making sure the hydraulics do not overexert themselves, worse still it appears the coding is refusing to recycle itself at the end of every action.”

“Are you sure the coding is properly entered?” I didn’t even answer him, I simply raised my eyebrow at him, while I leaned into my hand that was propping my head.

Tech noticed how Zaina was hiding a chuckle behind her knuckles as they pressed into her lips as her elbow rested on the back of her chair, Hunter seemed similarly amused.

He felt his face heat up, “I would be only to happy to help you address this problem, unfortunately, at the moment, I am on my way to attend a meeting with one of our suppliers.”

“Do not stress yourself, Tech. I will give you my number, contact me once you are free to do so” I promptly handed Tech my business card before I headed to the locker room. It was a little odd to have so many watching us, yet I understood it was due to their admiration for their brother.

Zaina tried, she really did try not to say anything, she wanted to be supportive of Hunter’s younger brother and did not want to embarrass him, but she couldn’t help smirk at his shocked expression, as his eyes read and reread the card in his hands.

“Do you think his brain short-circuited?” Crosshair’s voice teased as he walked up beside his younger brother.

“I think his brain is rebooting at the moment,” Hunter laughed, “let’s give him a minute or two to come back to us” Hunter and Crosshair chuckled.

“Will you two stop?” Zaina defended Tech, “Leave him alone. It’s not every day his Bishop captures the Queen” she tried, she really did but she couldn’t stop smiling from ear-to-ear at seeing Tech’s cheeks deepen a darker red at the teasing he was receiving from the three of them.

“For your information, Zai,” Tech smiled as he turned the card in his hand, before he locked eyes with her, as a self-satisfied smile appeared on his lips, “I always capture the Queen” he smirked as he headed off, tucking the business card into his pocket.

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

My stomach was fluttering when I noticed Tech’s caller ID appeared on my cell. I wanted to answer, but of course at that moment, I was inundated with questions, as I did my best to answer the panel before me.

“Are you sure you’ll be able to meet the deadline?” Lama Su narrowed his eyes on me.

“I understand the panel's concern, but must I remind you we are here for the benefit of veterans and those in need of prosthetics. Human trials for our prosthetics are progressing at exceptional speed. There have been difficulties with seven percent of the trails.”

“Could you please clarify the difficulties?” Tong Wee asked as she readjusted her pen ready to take notes.

“Certainly” I pulled up the next slide from my presentation, “as you can see from overall feedback, most patients have reported they find the prosthetic to be a benefit to their life. Patient FJ-3645 directed our attention to one issue with their neural interface, at times the connection would drop between the patient and the prosthetic. We discovered the problem was a firmware issue; which has since been adjusted — however this particular patient has stated that the issue, although fixed, has affected the overall feel of the equipment. We are currently trying to determine the problem the patient is sensing. I would like to next direct your attention to patient EF-2487 this patient was at work when the prosthetic completely failed. It appears in this case the neural interface completely crashed.”

“I do apologize for interrupting” Nala Se began as she held her hand up, indicating for me to stop my presentation “are you saying most of the issues are neural interface based?”

“In these particular two patients it has been, for Patient FJ-3645 the problem with their prosthetic developed from a firmware issue; for Patient EF-2487, their problems arose due to a temperature issue.”

“A temperature issue? Would you please do your best to clarify this statement” Nala Se tilted her head at me.

“The patient’s body temperature runs higher then normal and works in an environment dealing with extreme heat raising their normal body temperature even greater.”

“Why was this not dealt with before human trials?” Tong Wee noted.

“None of the scenarios could have predicted a body temperature that normally ran as high this patient. Their physiology is actually quite unique.”

“No doubt there would certainly be some patients who inevitably end up running a fever”

“Of course, which was taken into account during the trials and even at time of development. However, what was not taken into account was a normal body temperature of 110. This particular patient was selected for the clinical trials due to their unusual biology.”

“How long did the patient wear the prosthetic before it completely malfunctioned?”

“A total of 875 hours, approximately 36.4583 days”

“That is quite the achievement, what exactly transpired?”

“The neural interface was burnt from the internal heat.”

“Have you been able to determine, what exactly about the patient’s physiology causes their temperature to run at a higher rate?”

“At this time we are unable to determine the direct cause. The patient has undergone several tests already, the theory at present is a belief the patient has a form of thyroid disease or possibly a heart arrhythmia we are currently running several tests to determine the validity of those theories.”

“What are the other issues?”

“Another patient had a hydraulic issue”

“Excuse me” Lama Su narrowed his eyes at me, “Do any of the problems actual deal with some sort of manufacturing issue?”

“If you turn to page 153 of your reports, you will note out of the fifty complaints we have received out of 700 patients, only one was a manufacturing issue which was fixed promptly”

“Any other issues we should become aware of?” Lama Su looked up from the report I handed out to them at the beginning of our meeting. I was about to open my mouth, when he cut me off, “More specifically, any issues that will cost the company money?”

I let out a sigh, “No. Majority of the issues are due to the physiology of the patient or a firmware issue.”

“In that case, I do not see a need to continue the meeting. Excellent work, doctor. We look forward to your next report.”

“Thank you ladies and gentlemen” I nodded to the panel of six men and women, grabbing my equipment and reports promptly leaving the meeting room, as soon as the panellists all left. I looked at my phone, as a notification for a new voicemail popped up. I couldn’t help smiling at the thought Tech had left me a voicemail.

I waited till I was in my office, closing the door before listening to his message.

‘Hello Kamarie, I do hope this message finds you well. As you requested, I finished with my meeting and contacted you as soon as I was able to; I wish to reiterate that I would be elated to help you figure out the coding issue you have come across. Please feel free to contact me at your earliest convenience. I look forward to hearing from you.’

There was a silence for a second before Tech's voice came back on the line.

‘In case, I forgot to mention, this is Tech. Tech from the Marauder Gym. The same Tech you play chess with …’ I heard him let out a sigh, ‘Again, I look forward to hearing from you at your earliest convenience.’

I couldn’t help smirk at his nervousness that clearly seeped through. I sat at my desk, staring at my phone, I wanted to call him, and tell him I could never forget him, I would always remember him, for as long as I could.

Yet, regardless of how much I wanted to take a step with Tech, I kept remembering the last time I was so upfront with my affections, not just my affections but also regarding my condition. The last time I informed someone about my future and what I was facing, it didn’t end well.

However, start something off with Tech on a lie, even if it was an omission was not the way I wanted it to begin and somehow I felt that he would be someone who would not shy away or run away simply because things may be more difficult than expected.

I took in a deep breath, chasing to have faith in a man who by all accounts seemed to be the encapsulation of what I had longed for, my finger shook a little as I dialed Tech’s number.

“Hello”

“Hi Tech”

“Kamarie … I … the message …” Tech took in a deep breath, “I cannot apologize enough”

“Tech”

“No please let me apologize”

“There’s nothing to apologize for”

“If you are sure”

“I am”

“In that case, how can I be of service?”

“Well, I would like to go over the coding issue with you, do you think you’d be able to come by my office?”

“When?”

“In an hour?”

“Unfortunately, that will not be possible, I’m finishing up with some work here, would it be all right if …” Tech cleared his throat, “Would it be all right if we met up for dinner to discuss it?”

“I believe dinner would be an even better suggestion, than what I had planned.”

“Gre…”

‘Did you get a hold of her?’ Another voice came on the line, it sounded like Crosshair cutting off Tech, however I hardly spoke with the man so I could be mistaken.

‘Yeah, I did…’ before he could say anything, more loud steps came booming over the phone.

‘Hey!’ Another voice called out.

‘Wrecker? What’s up?’ Tech asked

‘I’ve been calling you’

‘We didn’t hear you’ Crosshair’s voice rang through, ‘Anyway, Tech, you should just ask out Kamarie, you like her and she likes you, that’s evident by how she smiles at you.’

‘No di’kut!’ Wrecker’s booming voice came over the speaker, ‘I meant, when I tried calling Tech on the phone, I couldn’t get through, Cross.’

“That’s because I’m on the phone … right now … with Kamarie. She’s on speakerphone and no doubt has heard all of this”

“Hi Crosshair, hi Wrecker, I apologize for not saying anything earlier.”

There was nothing but pure silence for a minute, before I heard Crosshair’s voice trail off ‘Oh, shi…’ followed promptly by shifting feet and a door slamming shut.

I was smirking as I nibbled on my bottom lip, I couldn’t believe he liked me. I thought for sure there was no way he would’ve been interested in me, after all he was … he was amazing, intellectual, kind, dignified, treated me with utmost respect, and quite handsome. I couldn’t help the giggle that escaped from my lips at the sound of the door closing.

“Well, that happened.” Tech chuckled, “I believe there is a requirement here for me to express my deepest apologies on behalf of my siblings, please do not pay attention to anything Crosshair said, he is just … he is an idiot.”

I giggled at his reaction, yet doing my best to still my nerves, “I must disagree with your assessment of the situation, Tech.”

“Please enlighten me”

“Your sibling simply pointed out an interesting fact that has been a quandary of mine for some time”

“How interesting. That is an important factor in this observation. Wouldn’t you agree, Kamarie?”

“I wholeheartedly agree”

“Is what Crosshair stated factual?” Tech asked with hesitancy, maybe she was just being friendly.

“I believe it to be quite accurate, I know for myself it has been some time since my opinion of you has risen considerably. I find my mind often drifts to moments where I spend a significant portion of my time, contemplating your facial features, your kindness and your intellect.”

Tech cleared his throat, “This seems to be a dilemma for the both of us. With this new information available to both of us, would you care to join me for an evening meal with a romantic notion attached?”

“I would be delighted”

“Would you still care to discuss the coding issues at dinner?”

“It could be one of many topics we can discuss this evening”

“In that case, I eagerly look forward to our evening together”

“I do, as well. Tech, before you go, there is something I wish to say”

“Please feel free to alleviate any concern”

“I appreciate that, I simply wish to point out, Bishop C8 to B7”

“Oh now that is quite interesting. Pond A2 to A3.”

“Pond E7 to E5”

“Queenside castling”

“Queen D8 to E7”

“Protecting your King, I see, very clever”

“Would not want my King to be so vulnerable to opposing forces, he should remain vulnerable only to his Queen”

“I agree wholeheartedly, a King and Queen should only be vulnerable to each other”

“It takes a great deal of trust and respect to rule together, to know how to handle the skills each one brings forth.”

“Especially when going into battle for the first time.”

“At what time and where should I meet you?”

“Would 8 p.m. accommodate your schedule?”

“Perfectly, Tech.”

“I will call and make a reservation and provide you with the details promptly”

“I await with eager anticipation”

“As do I”

“Goodbye Tech”

“Goodbye Kamarie”

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Hunter watched as Zaina held Iris, rocking her back and forth. Even though Hunter understood how much it still pained Zaina to hold something she would never have the opportunity to have, he couldn’t help think she would’ve made an absolutely wonderful mother. He was glad at the very least she would be able to dote on her niece, and they had agreed to look after her for the weekend.

Wrecker wanted to surprise Mel with a special weekend away for the two of them, to celebrate their engagement. He had wanted to do it sooner, but between Iris remaining in the hospital for a tad longer than they had expected and Zaina being attacked, not to mention the wedding preparations, time seemed to slip away from him and before he knew it, Iris was six and a half months old.

“How’s it going babe?” Hunter whispered as he placed a gentle kiss on Zaina’s temple.

“Good, I think she’s finally asleep” Zaina answered back matching his tone, doing her best to keep her niece asleep.

“Guess what?” Hunter asked as he wrapped his arms around Zaina and Iris

“What?”

“Tech finally asked her out”

“No. Seriously?” Zaina turned to look at him.

“Yup, he was asking what restaurant we went to for our first date today after he got off the phone with her”

“Aww that’s so sweet”

“Dad!” Omega shouted as the front door slammed, waking Iris after Zaina spent the past thirty minutes getting her to fall asleep. Her wailing from the unexpected noise pierced not only the living room but everyone’s ears as well.

“Omega!” Hunter shouted back at seeing his daughter walk over to them wincing at seeing Iris in Zaina’s arms wailing. She felt guilty, she hadn’t realized Iris was going to be there.

“Sweetheart don’t, she didn’t know”

“That’s still no excuse, sarad’ika. How many times have I told you not to slam the door!”

“Sorry, I didn’t know Iris was here, but …” Omega began.

Hunter chuckled, feeling bad at raising his voice “Doesn’t matter. From now on, unless you are in trouble, bleeding, or running from some psycho, act like everyday Iris is here.”

“Okay dad,” Omega smirked, “but I was wondering, did you know Uncle Tech is sitting in his car in front of our place?”

“Before we begin with your uncle, do you know what time it is my dear?”

“I know I’m later than I said, but not by much, just …”

“Thirty minutes to be precise”

“Z wanna help me out?” Omega pleaded

Hunter looked from his daughter to his future, at least he hoped she’d be his future if everything went according to plan, however his look clearly stated no interference.

“You know Megs I would love to help you but I gotta take care of this little one, see if I can get her back to sleep” Zaina bounced Iris in her arms hoping the rocking motion would calm her down, she headed towards Iris' crib in the spare room, “She’s not wrong” Zaina mumbled under her breath, as she passed Hunter, noticing the smirk on his lips, “He has a point” she mumbled out to Omega as she stood in front of her, before placing a kiss on her forehead, smirking as she went off with Iris.

Hunter let out a deep sigh, “All right, did you eat?”

“Yeah, Hera’s uncle made us spaghetti”

“Did you finish your homework?”

“Yes. We started our project, which is why I was late”

“Okay, let me go talk to your uncle, but you gotta text me, you know the rules”

“Well you didn’t text either”

“Because Howzer texted, next time you don’t text, you are getting grounded missy” Hunter walked over to his daughter, wrapping his arms around her hugging the stuffing out of her as she hugged him back, “sorry for raising my voice.”

“Sorry for not texting and for slamming the door.”

“I’m serious though, next time you’re getting grounded”

“Yes, Dad” Omega chuckled as she released her dad, walking over to the living room.

“Not kidding” Hunter stated as he grabbed his phone simultaneously putting on his shoes and headed out the front door.

“Love you too, dad”

“Yeah, yeah. Say that now with the threat of being grounded looming overhead” Hunter chuckled, as he walked over to Tech’s car.

He was surprised to see the loon on Tech’s face, he looked shocked, shaken to his very core. The only other time he’d ever seen Tech look like that was when he received news about Echo and Wrecker’s injuries. Hunter knocked on the window, pulling Tech from his own thoughts.

Tech turned his head blinking at seeing his brother beside his car, as he lowered the window, “Hunter?”

“Hey buddy, you okay?”

“Yeah, what are you doing at my place?”

“Tech, you drove to my place”

“What?” Tech looked from Hunter, to the house behind his brother, there was no mistake he had driven to his older brother’s home. He must have been in more shock than he thought, not to mention his body clearly knew what he needed even if his mind was too in shock to register.

“You wanna come sit with me on the porch, tell me what got you driving to my place at 11 at night?”

“I … uhhhh…”

“Come on buddy, turn off the car”

Tech followed Hunter’s orders, moving without even realizing he had left the car, his keys dangling from his fingers, as he shifted on the seat on the porch.

“Want a drink?” Hunter offered, Tech simply shook his head ’no’ as he took in a shuddering breath, Hunter nodded as he took his seat, “Want to tell me what’s got you looking shocked?”

“Kamarie”

“Did something happen on the date?”

“It … ummm…” Tech looked at his hands they were shaking, Hunter reached over and grabbed them, hoping he would be a grounding force for his younger brother, “Tech, hey whatever it is, it’ll be okay.”

Tech nodded squeezing his older brother’s hand, Hunter was shocked, he wasn’t one for emotions or a display of emotion, whatever shook him up, must have been pretty intense, he waited to hear what Tech had to say.

“As you know I met up with Kamarie for our date” Hunter nodded, waiting for Tech to explain more, “everything was going great, better than could have been expected, when …

Rivaereri First Times Event 2023 Day 7 Prompt: Free Day (First time buying a house)

White Picket Fence and All

Summary: After the baby is born, Levi and Eren are ready to buy their first house

"I'm beginning to think we'll never find the one." Eren said dejectedly, while holding their newborn. The baby girl, Lucy, is currently fussing and Eren fished out a pacifier for her. They are currently sitting in Levi's car. Eren managed to find a job that allows him to work from home which is perfect after just having a baby.

Their baby arrived earlier than planned, which is why Eren and Levi are now scrambling to buy a house. Their apartment now feels too small for three people. It's been tough finding the perfect place in the right neighborhood that fit their budget. They are targeting a great area with an amazing school district, which is why all the houses they looked at that fit their budget has had problems.

They've already looked at about ten houses and all of them either had problems or had location issues such as being too close to a busy street. It's a good thing one of Levi's friends, Hange Zoe, moonlights as a realtor, so they are getting a discount on realtor fees.

"Maybe we should look for a different suburb for a starter home and then move when Lucy starts school." Levi suggested, though he didn't really like that idea. He doesn't like how messy it is to move house and wanted to find a perfect house that they can stay in for a long time. Finding a good Neighborhood would be key for this.

"I think we should try some more houses in this area, but if we still don't find anything, then maybe we can think about backups." Eren also had his heart set on the suburb, since the school district had special programs for omegas and didn't funnel them all into home-economic classes, something that was important for the omega.

Levi pulled into the parking lot of their apartment. They were done for the day. After they trudged up to their apartment, Levi started cooking their evening meal while Eren fed the baby and changed her diapers. Lucy was six months old, precocious and is starting to accept solid food into her diet. Soon, she would be weaned completely and can be potty trained.

They are about to turn in for the night when Levi received a text from Hange about a house that's on the border of their target suburb but can still be considered to be in the same school district. Levi immediately made an appointment and went to sleep.

------

On the day and at the appointed time, the couple pulled up to the house, spying Hange waiting for them by her car in the driveway. Immediately they noticed that the yard for this house is a lot bigger than the other houses they've seen. Already a point in favor.

Hange looked very excited as she ushered Eren and Levi into the house. She explained that this neighborhood is a new development that just happens to be between two suburbs, this house just happens to be counted as residing in the couple's target area, but the home prices are lower than the ones in the target suburb.

The house is practically new, built three years ago and bought by someone who went out on long term business trips and hardly lived in. Now the guy is selling, and Hange just happens to see it before her fellow realtors.

The interior of the house is indeed amazing compared to the others. It's actually somewhat too big for three people, but that shouldn't be a problem since they plan to have at least two more siblings for little Lucy.

After a thorough tour that had Eren vibrating with excitement that even infected the baby, Hange left them to have a moment to themselves.

"Are you thinking what I'm thinking?" Levi asked, unable to keep the excitement out of him voice.

"I think that this could be the one!" Eren said, while Lucy babbled happily in his arms, even she's excited about this.

"It's in the higher end of our budget but it's much bigger than the other houses we looked at."

"Look at the yard, it's huge, we could do so much with it! Even add to the house if we need!"

"So, are we saying yes?"

"Definitely."

With that decided, they looked for Hange to tell her about their decision. Hange beamed, she gets butterflies in her stomach every time she helps someone find their dream house, and this goes double since Levi is her friend.

From there on, Hange handled the rest. The only thing Levi and Eren needed to do was wait until they are making the down payment the house and signing their names on the deed.

------

Eren and Levi's friends congratulated them on their good luck, and all helped them to move into their new digs.

On the day they finally finished moving all their stuff into the house and got everything tidy and livable, Levi got the news that he got a raise. Everything was looking up and a round of celebratory sex was in order.

♥️ Recently Read Fics - February 2022 ♥️

These are all the amazing fics I read over the past month (from shortest to longest). Don’t forget to leave kudos and comments to show the authors your appreciation if you read any of these! 💗

♥️ what’s that sound by @onlyfor-thegays (485, NR)

An omega freaking out the first time they hear an alpha purr because they were raised by and around betas and omegas. They had never heard it before and they freaked out thinking their alpha was hurt.

♥️ The Phantom Heart by @haztobegood (500, NR)

Harry notices the small stain at the edge of fabric. She scrapes her nail across the mark. It won’t come off. A smudge of crusted paint forever staining the threads baby pink with a bittersweet memory.

♥️ Thunder and Rain by @neondiamond (628, G, yes this one is mine, but we love a bit of self-promo in this house)

There’s a storm outside and Louis can’t find the puppies. Luckily, Harry’s there.

♥️ let me show you by @thestylinsons (1k, T)

After three rounds and several empty bottles, Louis is feeling a bit tipsy and everyone else seems to be enjoying themselves. Niall has just finished his turn, “Never have I ever got a tattoo”, to which everyone else groans and reluctantly drinks. Louis laughs to himself because he remembers the time he swore he’d never get a tattoo, and now he’s got an arm full. At this point, the alcohol slides down Louis’ throat like honey.

“Tommo, it’s your turn now.” He hums and looks around the room. Niall’s staring at him, giddy off the high of his last turn. Harry’s got both hands around his drink now, the label torn to pieces on the floor. Zayn and Liam are next to each other, and Louis remembers Zayn telling everyone something that happened a few months ago.

Or, everyone plays 'Never Have I Ever', and Louis discovers something about himself.

♥️ Nothing’s Gonna Stop Us Now by @allwaswell16 (1k, NR)

Louis is having a personal crisis, a third Valentine's Day being single. Unless he meets someone this week at the high end department store he works at, he'll be stuck going to Niall's Valentine's Day party--again.

Or the one where Harry mistakes Louis for a mannequin.

♥️ forever&more by @solitudeandchaos (1k, G)

Harry hands the envelope over to her and watches her throw it into the bin full of letters.

“Are you sure it’ll get to New Zealand in time?”

“It should but it’s hard to tell with Covid.”

Harry bit his lip worriedly, nodded and tapped his phone against the card machine to pay.

it's valentine's day. harry and louis haven't seen each other in two and a half months, they swap valentine's day cards from eleven thousand miles apart.

♥️ as long as there’s us by @hershelsue (2k, G)

Harry and Zayn discuss what to do for Valentine's Day. It doesn't really matter.

♥️ Happy Valentine’s Day, You Cockroach by @allwaswell16 (2k, NR)

Harry Styles, new director of the Milltown Zoo, has a great idea for a Valentine's Day themed fundraiser. For a donation, they'll name cockroaches after people's exes and then feed them to the meerkats on a live stream. He just didn't foresee how many cockroaches would end up with his name...

♥️ you (lost and lonely) by @hershelsue (2k, E)

Harry and Louis have a couple of days together before Louis goes on tour. Sometimes, however, dysphoria hits Harry harder than he can handle. Louis makes it alright.

♥️ Lips of an Angel by @beelou (2k, G)

And Louis can’t believe what he’s seeing. A man, cuddling with a grown bear. Literally rubbing its belly like a contented puppy. He can hear baby talk coming out of the man’s mouth too. Louis rubs his eyes to see if this is actual real life, but when he uncovers them, the sight before him is still there. He didn’t think that when he took his siblings to the zoo that they would see something as odd as this.

♥️ Sleepy Nouis series by @ladyaj-13 (2k, T)

A collection of unrelated Niall and Louis stories where for whatever reason, they end up in bed together.

♥️ take me home (forever and ever) by @twoghostsdancin (2k, T)

As he grips the counter tightly with his sweaty palms, the cashier gives him a concerned glance, an eyebrow angling in confusion. Louis is sure he’s saying something, but he can’t hear a single thing coming out of his mouth. It’s like someone just turned off all his senses, and all he can hear in his ears is a faint ringing sound. He staggers backward, his mind swirling, and his breaths shallow until he feels himself fall into a strong grip.

The world goes black.

Or. The first time Louis falls, Harry catches him. The second time he falls, it’s for Harry.

♥️ At Last by @juliusschmidt (3k, T)

That’s when Louis sees it, scrawled in the corner: let’s do valentine’s.

There’s a few more notes after that, a place and a number, but Louis can’t process them in that moment.

His heart pounds and his head spins. Zayn wants to spend Valentine’s Day… with Louis. Louis’d spent so much time equivocating about whether or not to ask Zayn on a date that Zayn had beat him to it.

♥️ Gonna Dress You Up In My Love by @fallinglikethis (3k, T)

Harry decides to take up knitting. He's horrible at it.

Louis wears everything anyway.

♥️ I Can Be Your Vice by @littleroverlouis (3k, E)

It could be his innate flight or fight instincts kicking in. His predator is closing in and he is the prey. Fear would be a rational response.

After all, there is a centuries old vampire standing directly behind him.

“You’re ahead of schedule, Louis.”

Or Harry and Louis are FWBB (friends with bloodsucking benefits)

♥️ I'll do anything you say (If you say it with your hands) by @harrystomlinson (3k, G)

"What d'ya say curly?" Louis raises his eyebrow, mischievous smile playing on his lips.

"I'll do anything you say." Harry's voice comes out breathy, eyes widening when he realised what he'd said.

Louis doesn't reply- only takes his hand and pulls him in.

♥️ Make Your Mark by @ladyaj-13 (3k, T)

When one of Liam's classmates isn't getting the hint that he's not interested, Louis suggests they make him look unavailable.

♥️ Been Waitin’ (After Weekend After Weekend After) by @absoloutenonsense (3k, T)

Louis and Harry meet at a laundromat.

♥️ Validation by @lululawrence (3k, NR)

“Hey, how are you?” Harry asked. He’d found that sometimes just a smile and a kind face was all that was needed to brighten someone’s day.

“Oh, uhm. I’m alright. Can you validate me? »

Harry chuckled inwardly, but decided to go ahead and take him literally.

Or the one where Harry worked in a parking garage and he totally didn’t mean for this, the whole validation of people as well as their parking tickets, to become a thing. It just kinda...did.

♥️ Somersault by @sun-lt (4k, G)

“Got you something,” Louis whispers eventually.

Something in Harry’s stomach fizzes; the idea of presents—especially surprise ones—has never failed to evoke somersault excitement in his belly. And though he never has any expectations, it’s certainly not uncommon for Louis to spoil him like this when he knows Harry’s had a rubbish sort of day.

Louis gets Harry presents. Harry’s contemplating getting Louis a ring.

♥️ in the shallow water, you can swim around me (i won’t mind) by @non-binharry (4k, E)

“What’s got you all worked up this morning, princess?”

Louis tickles up Harry's ribs and Harry squirms, slapping his hands away.

"Your little footie players are in here giving their mummy hell this morning." Harry explains. “I could barely sleep so I had a little bath. I thought it was only fair that you give me a hand to lotion myself up.”

“And just where do you want me to rub you down, my love?” Louis asks, an amused lilt to his question. Harry knows that Louis had already figured out exactly what he was really getting at, too embarrassed to flat out say he was horny at 8 o’clock on a Thursday morning. Harry’s libido was going haywire in his final trimester, and while Louis was never going to refuse pulling his cock out to give his baby exactly what he wanted, Harry felt undignified over the reality that he could barely function these days if he didn’t do something first to relieve the aching pressure building just beneath the surface.

“Hmm,” Harry says, tapping his chin, “I think I want you to start… here.”

♥️ Click by @allwaswell16 (5k, E)

When Louis got assigned a roommate, he wasn’t exactly thrilled, but as far as roommates go Marcel was a pretty good one. That was until Marcel started clicking a counter everywhere he went...

♥️ baby I’ll never leave (if you keep holding me this way) by @so-why-let-your-voice-be-tamed (6k, T)

His fingers curl around the first thing he can find that would be suitable as a weapon, an umbrella that has a rather impressive looking metal pin at the end. He holds it in front of him the way he imagines people hold a sword, tiptoeing through his living room until he can find whoever’s in his kitchen. He briefly considers calling 999, figures that if someone’s trying to burgle him, he should probably not be a hero and actually rely on professionals to arrest them, but he’s never been the type to sit back and wait, and -- is that singing?

It is singing. Whoever is trying to rob him is in his kitchen, singing an eighties pop song under their breath.

And they made cookies?

♥️ you bring me home by @solvetheminourdreams (6k, G)

OTRA Melbourne — 14th of February, 2015

It's Valentine's day. It's Valentine's day and Harry's annoyed, because instead of spending the night with his boyfriend after a day packed with promo and a show—he can't find him anywhere.

Or the one where the boys trash a dressing room, Liam and Zayn just want a gift wrapped, Niall's life is in peril, Louis is MIA, and Harry's just a tad frustrated.

Did he mention it's Valentine's day?

♥️ Kiss Me Again, You Fool by @wabadabadaba (6k, E)

“Louis, you’re cuter than a button. Will you be my valentine? Hm, no,” Marcel scowls. “It is true but no. ‘I love you a latte!’ But wait, does he drink coffee? Only sometimes so that doesn’t make sense.”

Marcel sticks his tongue out as he ices three more cookies.

“I go bananas for you,” Marcel giggles. “That’s cute, but not sophisticated enough. He’s the best designer on our floor, he deserves something better. ‘Right from the start, you stole my heart?’ No, I don’t want to scare him off. I should probably just speak from the heart, that’s always what mom says. But then Gemma says that’s lame, I don’t knooow,” Marcel groans.

or the one where Marcel has a huge crush on his coworker, Louis, and decides Valentine's Day is the day to put himself out there.

♥️ Where Love Grows by @neondiamond (6k, T, more shameless self-promo)

When his husband leaves without warning only weeks after the birth of their first child, a struggling Harry is forced to move in with a work colleague and raise his newborn in the desolate, dreary outskirts of London. There, within the walls of a shitty apartment complex, he meets Louis Tomlinson, fellow struggling parent and hopeless romantic.

♥️ young hearts on the chase by @polaroidlouis (7k, G)

Before he can question him any further, Harry’s holding out a drink to him, ‘Louis’ written on the side of it with messy, pink letters. Warmth spreads all throughout Louis’ body when he takes it, starting from the tip of his fingers where they brush Harry’s to curl around the cup and settling in his chest.

“I also got us– um,” the omega starts, nervous fingers fumbling to get the paper bag open. “Got you an egg muffin. Or– or a normal muffin if you don’t like egg ones.”

“Who doesn’t like egg muffins?”

The smile that breaks across Harry’s face in response is as bright as the one yesterday. Louis almost expects it to be kissed into his cheek as well. It looks like Harry’s considering it for a moment, too, dreamy gaze gliding all over Louis’ expectant face. He seems to decide against it with a sigh though, and Louis’ not disappointed when they start walking side by side instead (he’s not).

harry’s a hopeless romantic, louis’ oblivious, and it’s going to be Valentine’s Day.

♥️ in comes the rain by @starlitlou (7k, M)

Louis glared down at the calendar notification on his phone, as if by the power of his gaze alone, he could make time skip forward. He just really did not want to deal with this.

Stupid fucking heat. Stupid fucking biology.

He knew it was dumb how worked up he got about it. It was far from his first time having to deal with it and it would be far from his last. And yet.

Being ace and an omega had never been Louis' favourite combination. Even less so when his heat is involved. Unfortunately, it's not something he can avoid forever. Harry makes it all a bit better.

♥️ With You Here, It’s Better by @chloehl10 (11k, M)

Louis hates Valentine's Day, especially since he's found himself suddenly single yet again.

When he stumbles upon his ex in the pub cavorting with his new boyfriend, Louis has had enough. He doesn't, however, expect a tall, curly haired stranger to come and turn his night around...

♥️ It’s Been Ages by @2tiedships2 (13k, NR)

“We need to talk,” Niall said as he plopped down on Louis’ bed. “It’s you and Harry. You like him, he likes you, it’s a match made in heaven and you will one day be mates,”

Louis shook his head in exasperation. “If you’ve been watching, you would see that Harry is interested in, like, alpha alphas. Not me.”

“What the fuck is an alpha alpha?” Niall asked with furrowed brows.

“You know what I mean,” Louis said, giving Niall a pointed look.

“I literally have no idea what you’re talking about.”

♥️ two sugars by @sun-lt (21k, T)

Louis rushes away to the kitchen, waving distractedly, and as his and Niall’s voices rise in a muffled squabble, Harry commits his first ever act of theft.

Louis’ blanket, emerald polar fleece still heated from his body, soaked in the mountain lake notes of Louis’ scent and the sugary aroma of the café, fits easily beneath his parka. Harry’s heart pounds like he’s run a marathon and his tea—perfectly sweet—burns as it splashes on his cheeks and chin, his trembling fingers failing to control the tilt of the paper cup.

Lonely and anxious in a new city and a new job, obsessed with preparing for a picture-perfect future he can’t actually picture, Harry begins to nest but can’t allow himself to indulge enough to satisfy the bone-deep, instinctual urge. Louis works in a café with a yellow door, has an extensive collection of soft sweaters, and keeps offering Harry books and pastries.

♥️ With A Little Kindness by @jacaranda-bloom (33k, E)

The man lays his hand on Harry’s forearm and Harry looks up as the stranger leans in. “I just wanted to say,” he whispers. “Can I cover your bill? I’m a big believer in paying it forward and I can see you’re struggling. It’s none of my business, of course, but I’d really like to help.”

OR the one where Harry is a struggling single parent who doesn’t have time for relationships and Louis is a generous stranger who is unlucky in love, until fate decides to step in and bring them together.

♥️ Bring It Back That Old Feeling by @all-these-larrythings (57k, M)

After six years together, Harry thought there wasn’t anything that he didn’t know about his husband, and no problem they couldn’t solve with a kiss and a snuggle. After a painful year of booze and heartache, he realizes some problems are much harder to fix, but the wait is always worth it.

Okay but AU where Jaster never died, Jango’s suoercommandos were never killed, Jango never went face to face with Dooku and crew (and tbh let’s just get rid of Palpatine cause he was the one that orchestrated that whole thing), Jango grew up on Mandalore as the heir apparent alongside Arla without any issues with the New Mandalorians because they all had the common goal of removing Death Watch forces, Jango eventually gets scouted to work on the cloning project but instead of it being an army they’re looking for a physically advanced null to clone so they can have a baseline for genetics testing and Jango says yes as long as 1: he gets two kiddos (Boba for him and Omega for Arla cause it amuses them and they Wanna be parents and Jaster keeps subtly mentioning grandbabies) and also that the cloners are obligated to either adopt the children out, or send them to force schools if they have a midi count, so that happens and Jango has a son and niece now, and they all just chillin till one day Boba comes home with another boy around the same age as him named Din who’s legit sooooo shy and skittish around droids but likes that the adults all immediately take him in because Boba chose him as family and so that’s the new baby and now Jango has TWO babies and they all grow up together (Omega comes home with a teenage Fennec one day and the adults are all ????? But accept that there is ANOTHER sibling) and one day young adult Din (a handsome fellow with extreme social anxiety that causes him to rarely ever take off his helmet but it’s not the Creed, it’s just his fear of people looking at him same babe same, who’s a good solo bounty hunter and and speaks like 15 languages but can’t string together a single sentence on his thoughts in any of them) wanders back to the palace (where Jango is aging but in charge of both the TM and also his ailing father who’s probably gonna outlive them all but gaining some memory issues let’s be honest) and Jango is all ‘how was work?’ And Din is all ‘??????’ *holds up green infant* and that’s when it occurred to Jango that he hasn’t seen Din in person in over a year and a half and how the FUCK did Din not mention adopting a child in all that time and Din explains that they could have found a Jedi station to drop him off at but literally whenever he tried they were followed and the kid almost grabbed again so can Jango plz call that annoying redhead Jedi he claims he doesn’t flirt with so the council member can send someone to pick up the child that he is not attached af to he promises he just thinks that Grogu is the softest most amazing most perfect absolutely precious creature in the whole universe and he’s NOT attached thanks and they send Obi-Wan (who’s reluctant to admit that his memory is going super fast and Anakin claims it’s because Obi-Wan is probably using the force to keep his hair from losing colour) and Plo who are all ‘lmao this child has BONDED with you’ and they overalls decide that Din is his dad now so he should get both hometime with the baby AND visitation rights, and Din is all ‘???????????’ And Jango is all *laughs himself sick at the idea of Din being in the Jedi temple cause Din would probably cry if a stranger spoke to him above a whisper lmao he’s gonna have to send Din with Boba or something* and now Din is wandering around the Jedi temple with Boba behind him, hiding around corners because he Saw People and ew he doesn’t want someone to look at him and then Grogu feels his presence and starts a stampede out of the garden with the other toddlers who are all ‘!!!!!!!!!!’ To see his Buir and Din is all ‘oh thank god my security blanket’ and refuses to put the baby down and little 12 year old Luke and Leia come out after them because their special mission of the day was to keep the toddlers out of Master Yoda’s herb garden and they’re all ‘👁👄👁’ at pretty Mando giving off anxiety in the force and beat the savage toddlers back to the garden and it’s a beautiful thing and Din has a baby and siblings and cousins and he’s loved and taken care of.

#Cara probably wanders back from a mission with him a year later and is big sister now #star wars #the mandalorian #din djarin #jango fett #jaster mereel #grogu

broke 1,000 followers (the fuck? I don't even make content people), so decided to write up a list of some (but not all, I'll make other lists later) of my favorite Bakugou-centric fic recs. my tastes run towards hurt/comfort, as you'll probably figure from the list. if there are some Baku-centric fics that you've enjoyed that aren't on here, please add them - this is definitely not a complete list of the ones I've read and love, but I'm always up for some recs. <3

fair warning, most of these are wips.

------------------------------------------------

Social Media 101 by WindsChild8178

Part 1: Survival Guide to Fucking Up

[Solely Bakugou’s point of view]

Katsuki Bakugou doesn’t have a gentle bone in his body. He’s aggressive in everything he does and does everything with 100% of his heart in it. After the Sport’s Festival, Katsuki starts to get harassed by strangers for his unheroic demeanor. It starts with letters but it doesn’t end there. The moment Katsuki realizes the harassment has entered dangerous territory and he needs to tell someone, it’s already too late.

Part 2: Post Traumatic Life Disorder

[Point of View opens up to Bakugou, teachers and classmates]

When the Dorms are finally built, everyone is settling in well, but things become tense as people begin to realize something isn’t right with the recently rescued Bakugou.

[Cannon compliant right up to after the License Exam]

hands down my favorite fic in the fandom right now. it’s the one that converted me into a Bakugou lover. if you have any fondness for Bakugou as a character then it’s likely you’ve read this one already, but if not, I can’t recommend it enough. incredibly depressing, but with the hope that comfort is coming soon in the next few chapters.

The Kids Will Be Alright, Eventually by NotWithThatAttitude

Bakugou is spiraling in the aftermath of Kamino and his friends are starting to notice. He's stubborn, aggressively independent, and less than willing to dig into his past, but after a breakdown that ends with a painful secret revealed, he starts to get help.

Whether he likes it or not.

Meanwhile, a new kind of villain threatens an uneasy peace following the loss of Allmight. Whispers build as a new narrative slowly takes shape:

Hero society needs to change.

Feat. Therapy, Dadzawa, best boy Kirishima, dysfunctional families, healing, growing up, and the mortifying ordeal of being known

guys.. the medical accuracy of this fic is just... *chef’s kiss*

I rarely see mental health genuinely handled well in fics, but this one goes above and beyond. kudos to the author for doing such excellent research into psychology, and making the application of it in here not-boring. also, while this one does have abusive!Mitsuki, it’s done in a way that feels realistic, and how I usually will see it occur in real life, rather than just for the hurt/comfort feels.

fair warning, the fic can be incredibly triggering (themes of severe depression, PTSD, panic attacks, rape survival, abuse survival, suicidal ideation/attempted suicide, among other things), so be safe and heed the tw’s if you decide to read. legitimately one of my Top Favorite fics in this fandom.

Lock and Key by autochorystalize

Bakugou made a choked, gravelly noise before croaking out a low, “You can’t be serious.” His fingers ached to blow up everything in the room.

“I’m sorry, young man, but you can’t change reality! This sometimes happens.” Recovery Girl clicked through his file, adding a new symbol in a previously empty slot.

- - -

A pair of eyes discreetly locked on to an explosive blond plowing his way forward, parting people in his path. He recognized the kid, of course. Anyone in the underbelly of society would recognize him, after the publicity of both UA’s Sports Festival and the events leading up to All Might’s fall. The uniform he was wearing cast away any doubts about the young man’s identity.

It was a bit of a surprise that the little firecracker presented as an omega.

- - - - - - - - -

Or: there are certain types of evil that seemed too distant, archaic violations and perversions that would never actually threaten bright-eyed heroes-in-training in the clean, modern world...but sometimes those evils aren't as distant as one might think.

remember when I said that I love a/b/o fics that are full of plot and world-building and gender-induced tension? that’s this one. the OC’s are fabulous and you love to hate ‘em. also, it’s the fic that made me fall head-over-heels for the TodoBaku dynamic, so it’s got a special place in my cold, dead heart.

be warned, there are rather explicit non-con scenes between an adult (OC) and a minor (Bakugou) in this one, but the author warns for them in advance, and you could likely skip those parts without missing too much if you need to.

Never and Always, Eventually by Wawa_Boonliang

"Katsuki can remember the exact moment that he and Deku…that he and Midoriya Izuku became friends. He can also remember the moment he and Izuku became fierce rivals, a time when they were almost enemies.

However, what he remembers most clearly about their relationship is the moment that they moved passed rivals and became something more close than mere friends. Something more like brotherhood, something forged in fire and secured in the middle of a battlefield or in the midst of natural disaster where the number of the dead was climbing ever higher. And then it was torn from him."

Katsuki is given a second chance. A chance to save everyone. A chance to change everything.

But should he?

y’all. I’m a slutty, slutty whore for time travel fics. a time travel fic with autistic!coded Bakugou? it was love at first read.

Lessons Learned by Sif (Rosae)

Rather than the police station, Katsuki's friends bring him to a hospital after rescuing him from the villains. His wounds were minor, but it didn't make having them treated any less important. As it would so happen, Best Jeanist was also brought to this hospital after the attack.

Sometimes, small choices have a big impact on how a story plays out.

classic Bakugou hurt/comfort. this fic opened me up to the potential that could be a genuinely good Best Jeanist & Katsuki mentor-mentee relationship, and I kind of dig it and search ravenously for it in other fics now. I’m also a huge fan of the behind-the-scences Pro Hero Chat group.

Slope by sunfleurmoon

“I’m not a hero. Or a good person,” Katsuki says, giving Aizawa a pointed look, “So leave me alone. I don’t care about the League or UA, or you—” The two years he’s been away have been fine, more than fine, fucking fantastic actually if you ignore the bi-monthly near-death experiences. He doesn’t need this place. He doesn’t miss this place.

And yet, longing, a childish desire to tear up, or maybe blow something to bits, they all twist in his chest like a band of traitors regardless. “—I just want to go home.”

Or: the one where Katsuki and Izuku fail the first term exam, Aizawa discovers their pasts, and Katsuki is booted from UA. Featuring questionable descriptions of villain organizations, a slightly illegal moving shop, and your favorite emotionally constipated badass in distress with a newly discovered penchant for collecting strays.

paaaaaaiiiiiiiin. the hurt is ALIVE in this one. lots of tortured, angsty exploding child goodness. the OC’s are excellently crafted, and the Bakugou & Eri relationship? beautiful. definitely deserves a read.

Ground Zero by WindsChild8178

In the wake of Kamino, Katsuki is tested more than anyone could imagine. Bound by a villain’s quirk to keep his silence or die, he lives each day knowing it might very well be his last. He continues to work towards becoming a hero, keeping his secret from his classmates and teachers, focusing on making it through each day and trying not to allow the panic or depression to get the best of him. When the villain finally corners him with demands in exchange for his life, there is really only one answer Katsuki Bakugou can give.

honestly don't know which I want updated more - social media 101 or ground zero. this author's fics are amazing, and I really wasn't expecting the twist in this one. can't wait for windschild to come back to this fic some day.

The Defect by LadyGreenFrisbee

"Why do you want to win the Sports Festival so badly?"

Because I want to see if the defect could usurp the masterpiece.

(In which Endeavor holds a terrible secret and Bakugo has to suffer since childhood for it.)

a great concept, and I adore the shouto and Katsuki sibling interaction here. hoping the author will come back to this one some day.

A Name That You'll Remember by Heronfem

Kirishima Eijirou is a Hero. Bakugou Katsuki... is not. Trapped in his toxic workplace and increasingly desperate to get out, Red Riot's days are only brightened by a new villain known as Caution, who's not exactly villainous and keeps accidentally doing good deeds. But when a real villain appears, a threat from the past that demands that Red Riot make the ultimate sacrifice to keep the public safe, Bakugou is forced into saving the day... and eventually, Red Riot himself.

sob story good guy villains are my weakness, this fic is a gem, and I'd kill for the sequel.

Our Hero by AnonymousTwit

He felt everything jerk to the side and throw his balance off before he saw anything, dust clouding his vision and irritating his lungs as the earth itself opened up to swallow them whole. For a single moment, in a millisecond's time, his wild eyes locked with Raccoon Eyes', hers alight with fear and adrenaline-fueled desperation. Somewhere in the back of his mind, he realized that it was the first time she'd looked at him with something other than long-deserved hatred in days.

And then he was free falling.

After a particularly nasty encounter between childhood friends, the class learns about Bakugou and Midoriya's dark history and practically ostracizes Bakugou while trying to defend Midoriya. An earthquake during an outing has all sides regretting their decisions.

just fucking tear apart my self-sacrificing faves in every way imaginable while their loved ones watch on in terror. 💖🥰💖 this one is heavy on the Bakusquad and Class-1A feels, and VERY heavy on the Mina & Bakugou relationship (platonic).

Running back the tape, watching it replay by Faralyne

For someone ripped from their time, ripped from the few but strong relationships built by time and personal development, by self-reflection and swallowed pride, ripped from the one thing that made him feel worthwhile and needed and put-together, and forced to forge everything over again—Katsuki thinks he is handling it pretty fucking well.

A villain’s quirk sends a 29-year-old Bakugou back in time to his middle school days.

am I a sucker for time travel? yes. am I a sucker for vigilante!bakugou? also yes. am I a sucker for this fic? literally refreshing the page in wait for an update as we speak.

Liability by sandelf

After All-Might dies rescuing Bakugou from the League, Bakugou is determined to prove it wasn't for nothing.

But the world is against him, his grief is overwhelming, and his stability is splitting at the edges.

very self-indulgent bakugou angst. tw for harassment, severe depression, and suicidality.

Special Mentions:

How To Win The Sport Festival: A Step By Step Guide by mhwright

Short re-imagining of the Sports Festival Arc if Shinso had planned a little better and worked a little harder to win the Sports Festival and if the match-ups had been slightly different. Self-indulgent fic of watching him succeed.

this is completely Shinsou-centric, not Bakugou-centric, but I love and adore it and am dying for a sequel. Shinsou is Best Boy here and you'll be rooting for him the whole time.

#fic rec #katsuki bakugou #bakugou #seriously though if you have a rec for me please always assume i will be unbearably grateful for it #and hit me up with it in the comments or through messaging #thanks for the follows y'all!

Broken but not Shattered Ch7

Grabbing his money, he decided against his jumper and since it was warm out he even left off his tie but still brought his cloak just incase Y/n got cold. After locking his trunk he made his way up to the Great Hall where he told Y/n he would meet her. Getting there however he didn't see her and furrowed his brows. He was sure he had told her to meet him here at four sharp and it was just that time. Perhaps she was running a bit late or...

"Sev?"

Stopping he turned to his left at the sound of her voice and when his eyes met her he felt his breath catch in his throat. She was in a dress... an actual dress. If he was correct it was called a sundress style with thin straps on her shoulders. The black cotton was flowy, ending a little above her knees. Walking closer to her he swallowed hard at the amount of skin the dress allowed him to see.

He was just starring at you, silently. You knew it wasn't what other girls would consider a date worthy dress but your mother had made it for you and it was the best you had. You had hesitated putting it on while getting ready, never thinking you could pull off dresses and as he stood there staring at you, you were becoming even more self conscious. Licking your lips you bit your lip and looked down. "I..is this okay?"

"It is ah.... you are wearing a dress..."

Tilting your head you furrowed your brows a bit... "Well... y..yes you said we were going on a date so I... I thought..." When it all became to much you closed your eyes and turned on heel, "I'm going to go change..."

Hearing this snapped him out of his trance. Quickly grabbing her wrist he pulled her back to him. "No." Licking his lips he looked down at her and watched her look up to him. "I like it... You look beautiful."

Blushing deeply you saw him give you a small smile before he stepped back some and held out his arm for you to take. Returning his smile you felt him lead you out of the school and towards the village. The two of you spent the walk there talking about the upcoming exams, Severus asking you what things you thought you needed to study the most for and promising to practice with you on those things.

Seeing her smiling at him so softly he knit his brows, "What?" When she shook her head he pushed again, "Tell me."

"You are still treating me the same, you are still pushing me to succeed, even knowing what I am."

"Did you think I would not?" he asked with a raised brow.

Shrugging you looked down to the path. "Omegas are thought to be unintelligent. Most don't even think we are capable of having an education."

"Like who?"

Tilting your head you took a deep breath. "Well my grandfather for one. There isn't many people who know about me Sev, other than my parents and brother the only other people in my family that know are my mom's parents, not even my mom's siblings or my cousins know."

"And your grandfather does not approve of your education?"

"No, not really. He's never said it to me per say but I heard him talking about me when me and Flint were eavesdropping." Looking back up and over the land you felt a small clenching in your chest at the memories. "He's old fashioned anyway, he doesn't think women should work, he hates that my mom helps my dad out at the bar but as for me... an omega... He thinks that I should have been kept at home, that I shouldn't have been allowed to go to school. I think he was partially worried about people finding out and the danger it would put me in and after Ilvermorny it just got worse but..."

"Wait, what happened to you at Ilvermorny?" She had told him before that she had had a problem with one of her teachers but that had been the end of it.

"I couldn't tell you the whole truth before, you understand that right?" Seeing him nod you gave a small grin before your free hand moved to your amulet. "There was a teacher, my Charms professor, Mr. Lyre.... I never really liked him all that much, no one did, he always made people feel uncomfortable..." Scrunching up your nose you shook your head. "Well last year I didn't have this Amulet to help me, I had to take this potion, this horrible, horrible potion."

"What potion?"

"I don't even think it has a name, all I know is that is was made to help repress all of the signs and traits of omegas. It's really old too. It isn't like this though, because this doesn't hurt, this doesn't make me feel like that made me feel." Knowing what he was about to ask you held on tighter to his arm. "Imagine if every time you felt excited or.. or had a thought or feeling that was just one of your instincts you would instantly have it ripped away. Then you would be left with this emptiness this completely off feeling that made you feel nauseous." Shaking your head you looked away, "I don't even want to think about it, point is it just sucks. There is absolutely nothing good about it other than the fact that no one knows what I am.... not even sure I knew what I was half the time because it made me so delusional. I never took it during summer break or when I was home but when I went to school I had too."

He didn't like knowing his love was subjected to that. "So what happened?"

"In a nut shell he gave me detention because he thought I was faking when the potion was making me feel sick, an it did, all the time. I tried telling him that I needed to go to the medical wing but he wouldn't let me.... I knew it was the potion wearing off, I always got light headed when I needed to take another dose. I can't remember everything, I know I was sitting in his classroom, it was late and he was close, too close. I think I passed out at one point because the next thing I know I was....I was in his private chambers and then... then I was somewhere I didn't even know.. I found out later it was his home."

He felt his whole body turn tense at that, felt a growl rumble in his chest and his teeth clench together.

"I was crying, terrified. He knew what I was and he... he was an alpha. To him I was no longer his student I was an unclaimed omega.... When he went to... I screamed for my dad and I don't know how but he heard me... sensed that I needed him. He showed up and ripped Mr. Lyre off of me. I have never seen my dad like that, he was so enraged. They started fighting and I wanted to help but my dad told me to stay away...."

When she had to stop to take a break he said nothing, only continued holding her arm and watching her face.

"He was going to kill him, Mr. Lyre. He had threw this dust at my dad, right in his eyes and he couldn't see... I heard him begin to use that curse and I panicked."

Seeing her eyes looking down he frowned. There was a clenching in his heart again and he knew she was getting upset, that this was becoming hard. "Y/n..."

You wanted him to know, he was your alpha, the boy you loved, he deserved to know. Glancing around you saw no one but still pulled him off of the path and over behind some trees. "You remember the other day at breakfast when you saw me light that letter on fire without using my wand, without even speaking?"

"Yes. You used wandless magic... it was amazing..."

Grinning you looked up to him. "Well it's a little more complex than that. Omegas are naturally frailer than both the other classes. Smaller, weaker but not defenseless. You see nature always has a way to try and level the playing field so Omegas have a better connection to certain elements... mine is fire." Holding up your hand you gave one last look around to make sure the both of you were truly alone before creating a ball of fire in your palm.

Looking at the flames in her hand he felt both his eyes go wide. Watching as she closed her hand to disperse the flame he looked up to her and saw her looking sad and guilt riven. Understanding now he opened and closed his mouth, "You... burnt him?" Seeing her nod but keep her eyes down he blinked. "How bad?"

"I was afraid and in pain... Scared. Before I knew what I was doing I had set the whole room on fire. My dad got me out of there and went back to Get Mr. Lyre but it was too late."

She had killed him... She had burnt him alive. Just staring at her he didn't say anything. He didn't know what to say at first.

"I..I didn't mean to.. I never intended for him to die, I just wanted to save my dad...."

Hear how shaky and soft her voice was along with feeling that clenching in his chest and seeing her shoulders curling up he quickly snapped into action. Wrapping his arm around her he pulled her to him and pet the back of her head as she laid her head on his chest. "Shhh. I understand, I know you would never hurt anyone on purpose." Feeling her nuzzle his chest he kissed the top of her head. The knowledge that that man had almost claimed her, that she had almost belonged to another made the alpha in him feel even more territorial.

Kissing her head again he took a deep breath before pulling away, placing his hand on the small of her back. Walking back onto the path he felt her lace her fingers with his and lean into his arm. Glancing down to her he felt the corner of his mouth tug upwards some, that warm feeling in his chest making him sigh softly. Nothing else was said as they made their way to Hogsmeade. She had seemed rather surprised to find out he was taking her to Madam Puddifoot's Tea shop. He himself had never been in the place but he had heard others talking about it being a ideal date spot.

Surprised by his choice you let him lead you to the grey stone building with the pink painted trim. Trying to see inside you saw the windows were all fogged up. Grinning up at him when he opened the door for you both to enter you felt your eyes go a bit wide at the inside of the place. It was so.... pink... frilly.

"Hello dears, pick any table you like."

Looking to the woman you gave a small grin and a nod before looking back up to Severus.

Inwardly groaning at how crowded it was he looked down to his female and sighed. Leading her over to the back table he heard as some of the other students whispered about the two of them both paid them no mind. They had been dealing with it for months now and while at first he was worried it would drive Y/n away from him, now that she was his claimed mate he no longer felt threatened.

Sitting in the chair when he pulled it out for you, you giggle lightly when his cheeks turned a bit pink at your comment of him being 'ever the gentleman'. Once he was sat in front of you noticed his shoulders still stiff looking and gave a smirk. "Wouldn't this style just look so cute all over a home?" Watching his eyes snap up from the menu to look at you, you managed to keep it together for a few seconds, the look of pure terror and disgust on his face too funny to pass up.

When she started laughing, her hand moving to cover her mouth in an attempt to not interrupt others he knew it had all been a jest and felt himself relax. "Our home will look absolutely nothing like this." he spoke as he looked back to the menu. When she remained quiet he glance back up to see her smiling softly at him before she looked down to her own menu.

'Our home.' The thought made you feel warm inside.

"Do you know what you would like?"

Quickly looking back up when Madam Puddifoot came over to take your order you glanced to Sev and then to her, "Um green tea please."

"And for you dear?"

She had ordered one of the cheapest teas. Licking his lips he looked down to the menu, calculating prices in his head. "Black tea and a slice of lemon cake."

"Alright luvs it will be right up."

Once they were left alone he reached across to take her hand in his, stroking the back of her hand with this thumb. "You never told me what your parents said... about us."

Tilting your head you grinned softly. "They weren't mad or anything... just kinda shocked... worried I guess."

"So they are okay with... with me?" he asked nervously.

"Well my mom said she is happy you are a Slytherin." you giggled and saw him grin some.

"And your father?" Noticing her biting her lip he felt doubt settling in.

"He.. ah... he had a few choice words that I will not repeat." Noticing him look down you gave his hand a squeeze. "He wants to meet you. They both do."

Snapping his eyes up he saw her serious. "They do?"

Nodding you smiled. "Yea, they invited you to come stay a week this summer.... if you want to that is."

Stunned he just blinked and then smiled. "Yes, that sounds great... so long as your father is not just getting me closer so he can kill me."

Laughing you saw him smile. "I'll be working at the bar of course but you can keep me company... maybe you can make Canyon leave me alone." you said with a roll of your eyes.

"Who is Canyon?"

"My brother's best friend. His little sister, Catalina, or Cat as we call her, is my brother's girlfriend. Don't get me wrong he's not a bad guy, he'd do anything for anyone he's just ahhh.. well you'll see."

Going to question more he snapped his mouth close when their order was being placed before them. Thanking the woman and paying he pushed small plate with the cake on it that she had placed before him across the table to his mate. Seeing her look up to him in confusion he only gave her a small grin and looked down to add cream to his tea, missing the way the Madam Puddifoot smiled at them.

Blinking you looked down to the cake and then up to him. Standing up you saw his eyes snap up and his brows dip. Scooting your chair over so that the two of you could sit beside each other you sat back down. Moving your tea in front of you while the cake plate was moved between you both so you could share you saw him look to you and gave him a small smile that he returned.

When a flash of light went off he stiffened. Seeing the beta woman standing there with a camera he went to question her when she was placing the picture she had taken on the table. With a simple wink she was walking away. Looking back to the picture as it finished developing he saw the both of them, the moving picture showing him looking up to her before the both of them were smiling at each other. Grinning he kissed the top of her head as she laid it on his shoulder. Cutting a piece of the cake with the fork he held it to her mouth.

................................

Running as fast as you could you heard one of the prefects yell for you to stop running but you paid him no mind. The clenching in your chest too strong for you to care about the rules. He needed you, your alpha needed you, you coudl feel it. Hurrying out of the halls and into the courtyard you made your way out into the grounds. Coming up on James and the others you saw them laughing and narrowed your eyes.

"Oh L/n you missed the show I am afraid, Could have saved you the disappointment." James laughed.

"What did you do? What did you do to him?" you growled.

"Well we just wanted to see what it was you saw in Snivellus that's all." Sirius chuckled..

Snapping your head to the right when another group of students started talking you heard them laughing about what James had done and when it finally clicked you felt that fire fill your veins. Without another thought you marched over to James and swung your fist through the air, landing a hard hit to his nose. Instantly your felt something in your hand crack but only bit down on your tongue, refusing to show them any weakness.

"AWHA!" Covering his nose with his hand he landed back on his ass in the grass.

"James!"

Feeling something wet cover his palm and leak from between his fingers he growled and glared up at the female from his cracked glasses. Pushing himself up to stand he hurried towards her.

"NO! NO! Put me down you asshole!" Thrashing in his hold you kicked your feet and tried wiggling out of his hold as he carried you somewhere.

Seeing his friend walking towards the lake he froze and furrowed his brows. "James... hey wait a minute." Sirius spoke.

"We tried to make you see, tried to give you the easy way out but you just continue to choose that pathetic worm. Well I'm done giving you a chance." The male spoke.

Understanding what he was going to do he felt his body clench up. "James no! Don't!"

Letting out a scream as you were thrown through the air you felt the shock as you landed in the cold water, your hip hitting one of the rocks hard. Shooting up you coughed up what little water had filled your airways and tried to swim towards shore. Grabbing hold of some of the rocks you felt your hand shoot with pain.

Looking down at the female he huffed out. "Go ahead, go to the future death eater but when he turns on you just like he did Evans don't expect us to take you in."

"W..why the hell would I ever want anything to do with bullies like you. All of you, you call Severus pathetic but you are all the ones that seek out others to put down to make yourselves feel powerful. In my book that makes you the pathetic ones and none of you will ever amount to anything." Watching him raise his wand you braced yourself but nothing ever happened.

"James that's enough. Leave her alone." Sirius told his best friend in a voice that held no waver. Seeing James look to him he kept his stare until finally the male lowered his wand.

"Let her go." James scoffed in a low voice.

"I could say the same thing to you." Sirius countered. Seeing him roll his eyes but walk away he gave the small female in the water one last look, his chest clenching before he turned and walked back to the castle with his friends.

Standing up you tried to wring out your clothes and hair as much as possible Pulling out your wand you found it broken and closed your eyes, "Daddy's gonna kill me." Shoving it back in your pocket you started walking in search of the boy you loved. You wondered what James meant by Severus turning on you like he did Lily?

Finally finding him out by the tree the both of you always sat under you stopped when you heard soft crying coming from him. Rounding the tree you saw him curled up on it's roots, his knees pulled up to his chest with his face buried in his arms. Seeing his shoulders shaking you felt a clenching in your heart and slowly moved closer to him. "Sev?"

Swallowing hard when he heard the soft voice of his mate he kept his face hid away in his arms, not wanting her to see him like this. Pathetic loser. "Go away." When he felt her place a hand on his back he tensed. "I said go away Y/n."

Sitting on your knees in front of him you moved to hug him, trying to keep from getting him wet with your clothes.

"Are you deaf I said go away. I don't want you here."

Stifling your trembling lip at his hurtful words you stayed where you were, refusing to let his words send you away. He didn't mean it, you knew he didn't. He was hurting. They had done this, embarrassed him beyond belief. Made him feel so alone. But he wasn't and you wouldn't allow him to feel that way. No he would always have you and you would show him as much.

When she continued hugging him he felt more sobs break out, his whole body shaking. "Why will you not just leave me alone?"

"Because I love you and I won't ever leave you." Feeling him cry more but not tell you to leave again you kissed his head. Laying your head on his shoulder you just sat there, continuing to hold him, reassure him that you weren't going anywhere. You didn't know how long had passed, your knees were sore but you ignored it.

Sniffling he wiped his eyes before lifting his head some. Peeking up from his arms he saw her own eyes open some to look at him, those alluring blue eyes that he could stare into forever. Swallowing hard he blinked and then closed his eyes when she reached out to brush back his hair. She never seemed bothered by his 'greasy' locks, always touching it whenever she got the chance. "You are wet."

Kissing his temple you hummed.

"Why are you wet?"

"Doesn't matter." you told him with a shake of your head.

Sitting up he noticed she was indeed completely wet, soaked even. "Tell me..."

"I ah... went for a swim."

Growling he saw her shoulders curl up some and took hold of her hand but instantly released it when she let out a pained whimper. Knitting his brows he gently grabbed her hand and brought it in front of her so he coudl see and when he did he frowned. The left side of her right hand was colored in a bruise and the pinky finger knuckle was sitting oddly. It was broken for sure. "What happened?"

Looking away you tried to pull your hand away but he held your wrist in a strong grip.

"Y/n?"

"I fell..."

"Do. Not. Lie. To. Me." he grit out. "You are wet and your hand is broken, what happened?"

Letting out a deep breath you closed your eyes. "I punched James then he threw me into the lake." you mumbled.

Growling deeply he went to stand but felt her pull him back down.

Quickly nuzzling his neck you held him tightly. You could practically feel the anger radiating off of him and as much as it frightened you, as much as the omega in you wanted to curl up and submit you wouldn't. You didn't want him to get in trouble because of you. "Don't bother with the likes of him. Don't drop to his level." you told your mate in a soft whisper.

Licking his lips he tried to push back these strong feelings inside of him. That Potter had humiliated him, made him so angry he had snapped at his best friend but what was even worse is that he had hurt his Y/n, he had hurt his omega. "I can not just let him get away with harming you."

Kissing his neck you breathed in his scent. "Yes you can because tomorrow it won't matter, tomorrow we are leaving and then it will be just us for a bit. And then in two more years we will be done with him and his heard of jackasses forever. Then it will be just us. Right?"

Taking a deep breath he pet her head. Brushing her wet hair back over her shoulder so he coudl stare at the proof that she was his forever. "Yes. Just us."

.................................

Grinning at the sad memory to the end of your fifth year you shivered a bit as the cold invaded your bones. Remembering that week of summer the both of you had had together though made the freezing of your limbs float to the back of your mind. He had been so worried, so nervous when you had taken him to your home. All which was for nothing as he was instantly accepted. Oh so many fond memories of that summer, A summer in which you wished you coudl go back to...

...............................

"And your parents know that Severus is coming do they not Y/n?" Dumbledore asked with a raised brow and saw the omega nod with a smile.

"Yes sir."

"Very well then." Leading the two teenagers to the open area he gave them both a smile. "A good summer to you both, we will see you both again soon." Going to turn away he remembered something and stopped. "Ah yes before I forget." Pulling it out of his robes he held the book out, "Here you are Severus. I will see what I else I can find over summer."

Taking the book he gave the headmaster a bow of his head. "Thank you Professor."

"Have a good summer as well sir." you told him. Walking towards the area where Dumbledore had led you both to you looked out to see the portkey there and smiled. Looking back to Severus you saw him looking to the thing with a raised brow. "What?"

"I know they can be anything but I was not expecting a rake."

Shrugging you gave him a grin. "Only thing Daddy had on hand at the time." Making sure your bag was tied tightly you looked to him and smiled, "Ready?"

"I have never traveled by portkey before."

Groaning you took his hand. "It's ah.... well let's just say I will be happy when I can Apparate. Now don't let go of my hand or the rake until we land okay?" Seeing him nod you reached out to take the rake and saw him do the same thing before the both of you were off.

It felt like there was a hook in his stomach yanking him all around. Feeling his hand on Y/n being tugged as well he tightened his hold. All too soon though they were slamming into the ground and he heard her groan. "That was terrible."

"Agreed." you grumbled. Letting out a heavy sigh you felt Severus pulling you up to stand. Dropping the rake for now you looked around and smiled. You were home.

Looking all around them he saw green hills and mountains in the distance. There were tons of trees and he even noticed what looked to be some sort of water in the distance. Seeing a home a little ways away in a clearing of trees he grinned. Overall he thought it was a beautiful sight, refreshing. "This is your home?"

Nodding you smiled. "Yep, this is it." Pointing to the cabin through the trees you saw him look that way, "That was my dad's parents home and then a little ways down the drive there is where Cat and Canyon's home is."

"Everything is so.... open and fresh feeling." he said and saw her smile. When she offered her hand he took it and walked with her towards her home. The closer he got the more detail he was able to take in. It looked to be of the cabin style with walls made of wood and stone. It wasn't a mansion per say but it was of nice size with a barn in the back along with a small farm from what he could see. "You have animals?"

"Oh yea, chickens and ducks, goats, and pigs... a turkey maybe, if my dad hasn't killed the hateful thing that is. I'll show you around later. Oh wait a..."

Hearing her give a loud whistle he stood beside her and watched as large cat jumped onto the porch railing, the thing had grey colored fur with patches of black and white. "A kneazle. You have a kneazle."

"Mmmhmm. This is Skitz." You told him as your pet quickly moved over beside you to start rubbing up against your hand, asking to be petted. "I've had him since I was five."

Holding his hand out to the cat he heard a low growl come from it and quickly pulled his hand back.

"Um he doesn't really like men all too much, don't take it personally he doesn't even like my dad and he's the one who buys his food."

Hearing a loud banging he snapped his eyes over to the large garden and saw a gnome running around.

"You are supposed to be taking care of that you know?"

Seeing her looking down at the kneazle who only looked to her with a bored expression he chuckled when it finally hopped down to go chase after the pest. Looking at the porch he noticed a swing that had cushions on it. There were painted handprints by the door, one large one at the top that he knew had to be her father's. below that was another big one but smaller than the first, the next two little ones made him smile softly, the thought of a little y/n making it. Watching her open the door he saw her look back to him and hold out her hand. Taking it he walked with her into the home.

The cabin look carried on into the home with wood floors and beams along the ceiling. The outer walls showed the same material from outside, stone and wood logs, while the inner walls looked to be made of plaster and painted a cream color that went well with the other colors of the wood and stone. Seeing as the door entered into the living room he saw a large couch along with a recliner and two end tables that didn't match the coffee table. There was a rug under the furniture and many books lined the shelves along the back wall beside pictures and such.

"Come on I'll give you the tour and then show you where you will be staying."

Nodding he followed her, he found the rest of the home to be just as cozy as the living room. Once he had seen the kitchen, dining room and glanced down the hall to where her parents room was he followed her up the stairs that were built in around the fireplace. Getting to the second floor he saw her point to one room, telling him that was her brother's room.

"This is the second floor bathroom." you told him, pointing to the open door. "You will be staying in here. Sorry it's not that big...."

Walking into the room he found it about the same size as his bedroom back at Spinner's End but more homey looking. The bed looked to be a full size with navy blue bedding. There was a dresser in the corner and a window that looked out over the land. Seeing a door he guessed it went to the closet and grinned as he looked back to her. "It is wonderful. Your entire home is." Seeing her smile he thought of something and knit his brows some. "Where is your room though?"

"Oh it's the next one down after the hall closet." Seeing him raise his brow and turn to walk out into the hall you felt your face heat up. "Wait.... no... Sev you don't need to see my room."

Walking down to the last door on the floor he grabbed the knob and went to open it but was stopped by his female. "I thought you were giving me the tour, does that not include your room dearest?"

"No."

"And why is that? Are you hiding something from me?"

"No I just ah... well maybe.... no Severus..."

Wrapping his arm around her he opened the door with his free hand and moved inside the room. Stepping into the room he saw the inner walls painted black with white dots on them, noticing some of them he smiled, constellations. There was a round rug on the floor with a crescent moon on it. The vanity on the right wall he noticed was also painted black with the same starry design on it. Books were stacks here and there on shelves and on the nightstand laid sketch books and a set of charcoals. The bed however was not your normal bed. It was pushed into the back corner of the room and there appeared to be purple and blue sheets of fabric hung up around it to block it off from the rest of the room. There was something else about it as well...

Watching him walk closer to your 'bed' you bit your lip and rubbed your arm, embarrassment and nervousness filling you. Looking down you slowly followed him.

Tilting his head he looked inside the little cave to see many pillows and other blankets lining the outer perimeter of the bed with the center holding a soft silver blanket that looked kind of like fur and a black silk blanket. When he breathed in he was hit with a light scent of what he knew was his omega.

Seeing his brows slightly knit together as he took it all in you breathed in deeply. When he reached inside you felt your body tense. "Sev wait."

There was clear desperation in her voice, not like the embarrassed, playful one before. This time she was serious and he froze. Looking back to her he saw her curled up some, her lip bitten harshly between her teeth. Feeling that off sensation he pulled his hand back and straightened up. "Y/n... what is it?"

Looking back to your sanctuary and then to his chest you took a deep breath. "M...my nest."

"Your... nest?" he questioned and saw her nod but still not look up to him. "I.. I do not unders...." he started but the sound of a door opening made him snap his mouth shut.

".... I told you it wasn't going to work!.... Whatever let's just..."

"Hey is Y/n/n already here?"

"Good question. Y/n?!"

Hearing the deep voice of a male he knew that had to be her father and felt his throat go dry.

Seeing Severus's body tense up you held back your giggle and took his hand. "Coming daddy!" Pulling him towards the door you got up on your tip toes to kiss his cheek, "Relax they are going to love you."

Nodding because he didn't trust his voice he swallowed hard as they started making their way down the stairs.

Can I ask for multiple character break downs?👀

Well if I can, then would you please do one for Ada and one for Tommy and one for John

But if only one has to be done, then you can choose any one of these.

Thanks! <3

Thanks for the ask! 💞

Ada Thorne nee Shelby

How I feel about this character

Just love for her! She is adorable, strong, fierce, absolutely amazing! Ada and Polly are the best developed female character on the show. Mainly, because Tommy can’t fuck them, so they can’t be reduced to his love interest, which is such a good thing, because I love strong women. Makes me weak in my knees.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

Freddie Thorne, Ben Younger, Jessie Eden, because Ada is bi, she just gives off that vibe, u know.

Somehow I prefer to read stuff with a female reader for her, more than a male reader for her. Because it’s either Freddie x Ada for me or Ada x female reader.

My non-romantic OTP for this character

Lizzie, Polly, Ada and Linda are an amazing combination! She and Tommy have an interesting dynamic as well! I would have loved to see more John and Ada interactions, because they have not such a big age gap inbetween, so I think they are close. Especially after Ada got her child and John got married with Esme. Oh, Ada and Esme would have sooo much fun together. Esme would be like the sister Ada never had.

My unpopular opinion about this character

I think her character changed a lot between season 1 and 2, because of Freddie’s death and also after she joined the business again. Sometimes when I make memes or the alignment charts, I have two icons for her, one from first season and one from third season, because I think she is one of the characters who changed the most through the series. First season Ada would do a lot of things different and more naive than third season Ada. Mainly, because she still believed in communism in season 1 and she somehow lost her faith after losing Freddie. Which is super understandable tho.

She acutally becomes wiser with age... unlike her brothers, who just do the same shit over and over again.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

I wished Ben hadn’t died, because they kill her lovers even fast than Tommys. WTF, right?

On the other hand I wished Ada talked some sense into Jessie, to NOT SLEEP WITH TOMMY THE WHORE SHELBY! Because Ada knows her brother very well and I think she genuinely liked Jessie, or she liked her enough to save her from the pain of being Tommy’s toy or pleasure doll.

And I’m still bitter about the way they killed of Freddie... but more about that later...

Tommy Shelby

How I feel about this character

Relationship status: It’s complicated!

Yes, well, I ramble about Tommy’s shit a lot. I know! He is still an intersting character and it’s so tempting to think about his actions in certain situations, but if I would meet him as a person- I would hate him from the bottom of my heart! <3

He is such an asshole all the time and when I first watched the show, I forgave him a lot he did to his siblings, because I was caught up with his good looks and the presentation of him being the good guy who does bad things to survive. But I spend some time to think about his actions and I noticed, he is an awful human being... to Polly, to his siblings, to his lover and actually to everyone. He might think he does all those mean things to archive a bigger goal, but he is just a gambling addict who can’t stop taking risks he isn’t even prepared for.

Shitty things Tommy has done over time:

Forcing his brother to marry somebody, John didn’t even know at that time, to end a feud, Tommy had started himself and only when it was in his favour to end it, he used John as pawn, so he could archive his plan. HOW FUCKED UP WAS THAT? Nobody seems to talk about this. It was fucking awful! And the way he did it was horrible to! Tommy said nothing to John until the very last moment, when they were already surrounded by enemies, so John couldn’t said no. It also shows, that Tommy thinks he is above his siblings. Tommy thought John wasn’t capable of chosing a wife for himself, so Tommy did that for him too. Even when John didn’t ask for this at all!

Destroying Ada’s relationship with Freddie and chasing his best friend out of town, just because... TOMMY WAS AGAINGST HIS SISTER HAVING A RELATIONSHIP. and yet he proclaimes to listen to woman and to give them a fair change. Maybe just not for our dear Ada!

Destroying Arthur’s marriage, because he kept dragging Arthur into shit, he wasn’t mentally stable enough for. Putting thoughts of rejecting Linda into Arthur’s head, by talking bad about Linda and making jokes about her any given time.

Sleeping with Lizzie over and over again, even when he knew she loved him and when she tried to get over him by dating someone new, he made the order to burn down the pub of Angel, humilated his family, and have him killed later.

Sleeping with Jessie, so he could use her

Humiliate Polly, when she was at her lowest, after Rueben had left her

Drag Michael into the illegal business after Polly begged him not to

Dragging Finn into all this shit after John died, because John wasn’t avaiable anymore

Calling Grace a whore, when they first met

Paying Lizzie in his head, even after she stopped being a sex worker

Helping a fascist

I could go on for a while, but you see my point here!

All the people I ship romantically with this character

Nobody! I want to see him miserable and alone! Honestly I’m never going to read all these soft!Tommy fics or whatever, because they really don’t interest me. I don’t want to see him happy.

But go have fun people and write and read whatever you want!

My non-romantic OTP for this character

Tommy and Lizzie, because they have a sexual relationship, which is not based on romance and I love this sad and depressing dynamic between them. It’s so interesting to write and read about.

Tommy and Ada are great in the show. I love their talks and Ada actually points out when Tommy is acting like a douche again.

My unpopular opinion about this character

I have a lot... where should I start?

I get so annoyed, when I see Tommy shown as a twink, because the actor is just 1,70m... which is not small to me. I know a lot of men around that height and I think they are average and not small. Also a lot of men feel bad for not being tall enough, because everywhere in our society it’s normal to have a tall man and a small woman. And the way tall man or small man are sexualized in this alpha/omega thing or in a top/bottom dynamic is so... meh. It’s really uncomfortable to see how people try to push the patriarchal man-woman dynamic into same-sex relationships.

Tommy is a class traitor and a horrible husband.

Man, I could rant for hours, but I stop right here. Just remember, please don’t feel attacked, I don’t mean to attack you. Even if you write or draw... whatever with Tommy, I would never say something bad about this. Enjoy creating Tommy content, I will love to ignore it!

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

I was so disappointed when they killed Freddie, because those two could have had an interesting and compelling relationship. Freddie could have been a great frenemie. I put this here and on on Ada, because their marriage wouldn’t changed the plot as much as Freddies and Tommys friendship. Tommy would have been a way better person, if Freddie was around.

John Shelby

How I feel about this character

MY HUSBAND! I love him and he has never done anything wrong in his life.

Nah, John has many faults, but I still adore him as a character, because his faults are actually making the plot more interesting. I also read, that he and Tommy fight a lot, because John is more moral and has way more integrity than his older brother. It was just hinted in the show, but I love this side fact and I will base my whole characterisation this.

I love to write, draw and read stuff with him. He is my favorite character from Peaky blinders and my love will never die, even though he did.

Funny tho, when I first watched PB, I adored Tommy and was annoyed by John, but as I rewatched it I changed my mind about those two.

He had so much potential and I would spend all my money, which is not much, but the devotions counts, to see a spin-off with just John and his army of children.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

Esme, because they are sooo cute together!

My OFC, because I love writing them.

Any reader, because I’m a sucker for John.

My non-romantic OTP for this character

All kinds of interactions with other characters and John are great! My favorite is John and Ada to be honest. But here are other dynamics I adore as well:

John & Polly, (she would help him a lot with the kids)

John & Arthur (they come to the garrison to drink and play cards, they talk a lot about their problems, deep bond here)

John & Tommy (in my head they are always fighting)

John & Lizzie, because they have a great friendship, and they helped each other a lot. She spend time with the kids and he gave her financial support, so she would quit her job, which she didn’t do, because she feared being all alone again, and she has trust issues) (I’m actually writing a fic about these two)

John & his kids (I’m soft for dad!John)

John & Michael (especially in season three, because John seems to be jealous of Michael)

My unpopular opinion about this character

John is not completely stupid. Well, he is certainly not smart, but he works in the betting shop, and Arthur does not, or not really, because Arthur is bad at math... John at least knows his numbers. And also Tommy chose him to be the legal bookie over the others, so John must do a good job there. He just never got a degree or something similar like Michael. Which is also a reason, why John seems to be bitter about Michael joining the business. Michael was put in a higher position than he did.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

This one is obvious... John should have survived.
