My gf has been rewatching Glee while she works on a jigsaw puzzle all weekend. (She just hit the fucking Rocky Horror episode 🥴)
Two things I’ve learned:
1. The post-Glee fandom PTSD still lingers lmao
2. I have retained an embarrassing amount of plot knowledge, BTS trivia, and fandom history despite absconding from the fandom over a decade ago
Also hi if you’ve just started following me in the past handful of years, I used to be a Z-list Tumblr celebrity dedicated to the Glee fandom, specifically Brittana. We all fought in the trenches for years against Ryan Murphy’s crazy ass so that those Cheerios could get married by the end of the series, y’all are welcome.

Vacation OTP Prompts
sleeping on each other during an 8 hour layover
alternatively, sleeping on each other in the backseat of a road trip
getting lost on a country road and stopping for an impromptu picnic
A is a grumpy person, but B forces them to take pictures in those face-in-hole boards
riding stand up paddle boards for the first time and hilariously falling off
finding a coconut and taking an hour to open it because they have no knife and don't know what they're doing
A forgets to pack pyjamas, B lets them wear some of their clothes but is not prepared for how cute they look in them
being excited over seeing something mundane because they don't have it in their country (me w/ squirrels when I went to america)
or, being totally terrified by something that's actually not harmful at all
A is scared of planes, so B holds their hand for the 10 hour flight, not letting go once
A has been recovering from something pretty bad, but they've been smiling, eating, and trying new experiences - stuff they couldn't have done before. B spends the vacation just grinning proudly, so happy to see A enjoying life again
riding a luge together and screaming all the way down
agonising about which souvenir magnet will look best on their fridge
running around a foreign city at midnight because screw it, why not
a very large bird lands on B's head while they're taking a selfie together, the selfie turns out as A with a beautiful smile and B with a look of absolute horror
trying to take a 'kissing as the waves break' picture but the wave knocks them both over
A is not a hiking person but agrees to go on one with B (because B is their long-time crush), ends up almost passing out, confession ensues

"you draw me?" "You're naming your controller with my name?"
(artist! x gamer! Prompt headcanons/for otps)
• the artist constantly sketching on their sketchbook, working on a project, and ignores the gamer who constantly bothers them.
• the gamer giving the artist a drawing idea of their favorite character from the game they've played.
• the artist climbed up to the gamer while they are playing in their gaming seat. The artist sits on them on cuddles them while they just giggles and hugs the artist while playing.
( bonus if the gamer is online with their friends and their friends was like "hey is that your bf/gf?" And they proudly "yeah, my personal koala baby" )
• the gamer loves to watch the artist draw, its oddly relaxing, sometimes climbs to them and sleeps/lay on whatever on them (personally, lap) just the watch them draw.
( bonus if the artist ignores them. OR.. they stopped drawing just to flirt or cuddle with the gamer )
• switching gifts. The gamer bought a new sketchbook/paint/stationary/etc for the artist, and the artist gave them a controller/a new ps/cute mouse and mousepad/headphones/etc.
• the artist draw while sitting on the gamers lap/between their legs comfortably while the gamer just gaming while bugging them (constant kiss everytime they win the game, or paused the game just to watch them for a bit)
( bonus if the gamer is taller, they would rest their chin on the artist top of head )
• arguing over coming to an art exhibition or gaming conference. ( Would be cool if both of them are famous because their talents/skills )
• drawing/sketching/painting date at the daytime and staying up late for gaming time, just the two of them. ( Would be very cute if the gamer is a night owl who used to stay up late while the artist slowly drifted to sleep in their arms )
• the artist draws the gamer ( as an artist myself, this is how we say 'i love you' )
• not the gamer tries to draw and competes the artist while clearly they are poor at drawing (optional)
• both of them are caffeine addict ( really need to say this. Srsly )
• the gamer being hotheaded because of their friends while playing a videogame, and the artist hugging them or just a simple kiss giving them emotional support that clearly cheers the gamer.
• the gamer teasing the artist when draws an anatomy saying "ouh you draw me? Looks sexy." And the artist just laughed.
• "how did you do that?" "Do what?" "Draw." "I dont know, it simply happens."
• "how did you do that?" "Do what?" "Winning the game! I followed all your tips and tricks!" "I dont even know, it simply did."
( - yes, a them being a golden retriever x black cat or a chaotic duo would be cool, or calm and easy x hypersensitive intovert.. dang, i feel so single )

I love you but that’s a terrible idea for the bradshaws
Here’s a little domesticity with the Bradshaws!
“I love you, but that’s a terrible idea,” you insisted, bouncing your one-year-old daughter on your hip as you gazed across the kitchen at your husband and your three-year-old son.
“A terrible idea or a wonderful idea?” Bradley countered, looking up from his spot at the kitchen table where he and Goose had been hard at work building some sort of monstrous imitation of a gingerbread house out of all of the leftover desserts and candies from Christmas and New Year while you had been giving Lydia a bath.
“A terrible idea,” you emphasized, cradling the back of your daughter’s head as she started to doze on your shoulder. “Besides the fact that the two of you have turned the kitchen upside down, now someone’s going to be on a sugar high for the rest of the night,” you explained, arching an eyebrow as you looked from your husband to your son.
“He hasn’t had that much sugar,” Bradley replied weakly, rubbing the back of his neck as he tried to recall exactly how many pieces of candy Goose had consumed since they’d started this little project.
“Oh, really?” you asked skeptically, shooting a pointed look at the frosting coating your toddler’s chin.
Bradley winced. “I thought it would be a good way to get rid of all the leftovers,” he explained sheepishly. “I realize now it probably would have been smarter to wait until tomorrow.”
You couldn’t help but laugh at the crestfallen look on your husband’s face. He looked like a wounded puppy. Walking over to him, you dropped a kiss on his forehead and ran your fingers through his hair. “It’s okay, honey. We’ll clean it up tomorrow.”
“Mommy, look!” Goose exclaimed proudly, showing off his masterpiece with sticky fingers.
“It’s beautiful, honey. I love it!” you praised him, holding the back of Lydia’s head securely as you bent down to kiss your son’s forehead. You looked down at his sticky face and hands and smirked. “Daddy is going to have so much fun giving you another bath.”
Bradley sighed. “Yep. I deserve that.”

This was a fun little project I found on @suugrbunz posts and I thought it would be fun to practice with this prompt. Hope you like it!
Prompt idea to practice your writing otp (ocs or fandom) — it'd be so cool since a lot of us write BoB fandom related content. So it can be interrupted as a modern au or !! Write your couples when they have grown old together
~💚~💚~💚~💚~💚~💚~
Upon returning from Europe after the war came to an end, you and Joe Liebgott had enough points for Honorable Discharge then came back to America after having served together in Easy Company ready to begin your lives as an exclusive couple. You both agreed that California would be the proper place to settle together. With the finances you each earned overseas, you bought a modest home with all the trimmings and furniture to fill it with. 
June 1946 
A representative from a popular local radio station visited your home to invite you and Joe for a live broadcast interview about your experiences together as a couple while deployed. The man explained it would be a real human-interest story and the American public would love to hear it. After a little bit of coaxing, you convince Joe to do it with you. 
You and Joe seated next to eachother across from the record jockey who would be interviewing you. The interview simply went as follows: 
Record Jockey (RJ): So, are you two a couple? 
Y/N: We are a couple. *Proudly smiling*  
Joe: *Nods with a grin* 
RJ: Would you mind telling us the story of how you two met? 
*You’re hesitant at first because women serving in the military was quite frowned upon, but nonetheless would still be overjoyed to tell the story. Joe would only be looking to you to do all the talking. He loves hearing your voice, and just stares at you admirably* 
Y/N: We both enlisted in the Army at the same time and met at Camp Toccoa, GA. I trained with the Paratroopers and the medic training unit while we were there and was assigned to Easy Company where Joe also was. 
RJ: When was that? 
*Joe is better with numbers than you, so you hum in thought then look at Joe to help you out* 
Y/N: June....? July... 
Joe: July 1942 
RJ: What was your first impression of each other? 
*You smile coyly at Joe, narrowing your eyes at him. Joe would be slouching in his seat, not very thrilled to be there in the first place, but perks up a little at the question meeting your gaze affectionately* 
Y/N: He was smug, and overconfident. A real wise guy with a mouth that needed a good bar of soap. My initial impression of Joe was that he was nothing but trouble. And you know what? I was right about that, (Y/N giggles) but after spending all those years with him overseas, I discovered how charming he could be. And how honorable of a soldier he was in the field. 
*Joe grins adoringly at you. Grabs your hand and squeezes* 
Joe: At first, I thought she was a pain in the.... 
RJ: Mr. Liebgott! Please, we’re live! 
Joe: -right...uh, pain in the rear. Whenever me and the guys did somethin’ we weren’t supposta’, she’d always be naggin’ us. Ya know, like a parent? Thought she was going to fall behind a lot and complain about getting dirty or having to fire the M-1. She didn’t complain about the work, the filth, the sweat, the tears or the heat. None of it. She pushed through like any of the guys did. I read her all wrong in the beginning. 
*Your eyes meet and exchange smiles* 
RJ: How many years have you been an item?  
Y/N: Well, the rest of the guys considered us an ‘item’ long before we dropped into Normandy. But I’d say exclusively since late June 1944. After all the near-death experiences, we definitely had a stronger bond. 
*Joe just nods in agreement* 
RJ: Joe, we haven’t heard too much from you. What's your favorite thing about Y/N? 
Tumblr media
*Y/N looks over at Joe expectantly, smirking because she knows he doesn’t really like to talk about feelings* 
Joe: *Long exhale, kind of stares out into space thinking* Well...she’s a knockout. Just look at her. *Gestures to Y/N sitting next to him blushing* I love that she can look the way she does and still be as strong as any of the guys in Easy.  
*He looks you over and winks at you making the butterflies in your stomach dance* 
RJ: So, was there a first date? 
*You and Joe both look at eachother inquisitively, each squinting at one another as if trying to search the other’s thoughts for an answer. You shrug* 
Joe: What about that night at Toccoa when we snuck out after lights out, and walked Curahee? Think that counts? 
Y/N: Ah, yes! It was so hot and humid, and neither of us could sleep on those kinds of nights- 
Joe: Mid-August 1943 
Y/N: -so we both snuck out of billeting to get some air after TAPS and bumped into eachother behind the mess hall. So, it was an impromptu first date. We ended up walking the Curahee trail up the mountain where we always did our awful company runs. But you could see the stars perfectly up there.  
*Joe nods* 
RJ: So, with the war having brought you together and the experiences having made you two inseparable, any plans to make Y/N ‘Mrs. Liebgott?’  
*You hiccup clutching your pearls. Joe chokes on saliva and chuckles nervously* 
Joe: *Scratching the back of his head* I think that goes without sayin’-- 
RJ: How about little Liebgotts? 
*Sweat forming on Joe’s forehead, you sense his panic* 
Y/N: Joe and I have the same ambitions planning for our future. That will include marriage and starting a family. Right now, we’re relishing eachother living peaceful lives after the chaos of the war. We’re in no hurry. 
*You look over at Joe, and he directs a grateful smile to you for rescuing him* 
RJ: You heard it here first, ladies and gentlemen! From the treacherous depths of war love still prevails! Thank you for sharing your story with the public! It’s lovely to see this point of view about the war than from what we’ve only heard or seen in the news. What a story! 
The End

Shipper tag game
Thank you for the tag @marvagon, you glorious human 💖💖💖.
What ship were you completely obsessed with as a teenager, but now you don't care about anymore?
None. I may not be as passionate about them as I once was. But I still hold all my past ships near and dear to my heart. I'll even occasionally nip into their tags on A03 and have a dip into newer fics.
What ship would you consider your first one?
Daiken/Kensuke from Digimon 02. I remember watching it on Saturday morning and wondering if anyone else was seeing what I was seeing. That led me to discover Fanfiction.net. And the rest is history...
Your first fanfic was about which couple?
My very first full length fic was Corinthiel, posted here on Tumblr. My first fic posted on AO3 was Dreamling, and I wrote both last year. I am a very, very, very late comer to fanfic 😅. I'm honestly much more at home drawing fanart then writing. But will occasionally give into temptation, when an idea obbsessively hounds me to the point of insanity.
Do you remember the first couple you saw fan art of?
I genuinely can't. 😅 I remember it was probably on deviantart.
Have you ever gotten into ship discourse?
I try desperately to stay out of ship discourse. To me people's ships are their joy... And I've got no interest in being a theif of joy. If there's something I want to see more of in the fandom, like a rare pair I'm fond of, I just try and create content and hope someone else joins in (@bobbole loves you 💚🤍😅) . If it's not for me, I just keep scrolling on by.
Did you use to have any NOTP or have one currently?
Again, no. I've always been happy to pick and mix my ships. I have my favorites ofcourse. But I've never outright refused to dip my toe into any ship. Maybe if it ventured into an area I personally deemed problematic. But mostly, I'm happy to try anything once.
Who were the last couple in the last fanfic you read?
I'm currently reading Remy Lebeau x Logan fanfic from Xmen. 😅 What sent me in that direction, I do not know. But I've found some amazing new fics in and amongst revisiting some old favourites.
Currently, do you have any OTPs?
I can proudly say until recently I've never had an OTP. Being a multishipper makes that kind of hard. But I don't know, I may be in too deep with Corinthiel. I'm not sure I could picture Danny and the Second Corinthian with anyone else but each other now. (Curse you @ibrithir-was-here. See what you have wraught! 😆). Them and Charmes (Charon x Hermes) from Hades. Because why would you split up the professional associates like that?! (Again very much your fault @mashumaru 😆) , Damn, I guess I've got OTPs now. If there's an established, happy couple in canon, most of the time I'll respect that and leave them be. So I guess that kind of counts too.
Is there any couple that, to this day, that you are extremely mad about not getting into?
Again no. If the juggernaut ship of a fandom doesn't really tickle my fancy, I'll sometimes stare forlornly at it. And sigh like a sad bohemian poet. But that's all content envy and I know it. 😆
Is there any ship you used to dislike but now you think they're kind of interesting?
🤔 I didn't dislike it, but I never really ventured near Corintheus until I started shipping Corinthiel. That made me backtrack and consider Morpheus and the original Corinthian's relationship from an entirely different perspective.
Do you have any ship that, in the past, would have been considered normal but now you would be cancelled over?
No I don't think so. As far as know they're all still alive, well and for the most part, living in peace and harmony in their respective fandoms.
What is your favorite crack ship?
Bookend, Destiny and his Book. The old book and chain. Living their best, grumpy old married couple, life together. @jazzy-a 🤜🤛🤣.
What is the couple you read the most fanfics about?
Most recently was Dreamling. I'm a bit of fandom butterfly at the moment, fluttering between multiple fandoms, waiting for the next all consuming passion to strike me down. I read, and reread ANYTHING Corinthiel 😅. But of all time?..... I couldn't say. I revisit so many of my ships so often.
What do most of your ships have in common?
Two bastards in love will always be my favourite. I'd love to boldly claim it's all about two morally dubious rogues, being despicable in the kinkiest ways together. 😅 But I know it's more about two people, often misunderstood and maligned... Finding a deep sense of belonging with each other. But I'm an eclectic sort and I've got a lot ships that don't fit that category I still love dearly.
What do you absolutely hate in a ship?
Absolutely nothing outright. I'll sometimes go off a ship a little once it reaches that point where fanon locks in too tight around it. But I think that's a very me problem, as I crave variation/new experiences/ideas. I'll still love the ship, I'll just know that's just my time to move onto something new and come back and visit every so often.
I'm tagging @martybaker @thelostkelpie @missingrache @thirrith @zigzag-wanderer @lucienne-thee-librarian and @tickldpnk8 and anyone mentioned above. If you want to have a go. 😁

Something I find amusing about C.C. & Lelouch's relationship (spoiler: it's not amusing at all) As a premise, despite everything I'm going to say, CluClu is my otp and will ever be, so this is not intended as a hate shitpost, even if who doesn't like them as a couple is also absolutely welcome to give their take. Furthermore, the topic of my discourse is just their relationship regardless you see it as romantic or not.
Now, to get to the matter, let's take a look first at the other two girls. I've always felt that Lelouch relationship with Shirley and Kallen were somewhat unbalanced, since they clearly had deep, sincere feelings towards him, but as much as he reciprocated them (as friends or almost-lover it doesn't matter here), it's always been them to give the strongest evidence of these feelings. He obviously cared a lot about both, and if I'm being honest I think that Shirley could have been his first love, but he only shows how much important they are to him under dramatic circumstances or if solicited, in response to some showing of "affection" from their part.
In Shirley's case, when he kisses her back after her father's death, when he wipes off her memories, when he blushes because he was expecting her to kiss him and then, sadly, when she dies. As for Kallen, the strongest example that comes to mind to me is when he says "you have to live" after he lied so that she didn't sacrifice her life for him. (I won't take into consideration when he made a move on her, for the following reasons: because he was at his lowest point and was only looking for something to numb himself, sex was the same as drugs at that time, no less self-destructive, and definitely not an act of love; moreover, because he didn't show her any affection AT ALL—what he said to her was straight up insulting and degrading (I state this as a matter of fact, but I'm not judging him here, I could talk about this another time), not something I would proudly bring as a proof of his feelings for her. Lastly, because my point now it's not to demonstrate which girl he had ROMANTIC feelings for.)
Then we have C.C. The only one among the three whose feelings for him were ambiguous to say the least. For the most part of the story, she manipulated and used him for her purposes by encouraging him towards the path that was most convenient for her. She knew from the start the truth about his mother, she watched him struggle and never said a word because that could have made him falter in his determination. She was aware of Charles plans, which she had been complicit with in the past, and also that he had a geass, but never shared these informations with Lelouch, again because that could damage her aim. She was the person who more than anyone else saw how much he was suffering, and I believe she started to care about him even early on the story, but still this wasn't enough to stop her.
Obviously she was conflicted, she often looks torn between what she wants to gain from him and a genuine feeling that she can't allow herself to have. Also, we could argue that, had she really wanted to go all the way with her plan, she could have done so already by trying to kill him, in order to push him to accept the code as the nun did with her (we know from Charles and V.V. that's not necessary to wait for the geass to evolve in both eyes). But she never does this. Deep inside she's not as selfish as she pretends and would like to be, and at a closer look it's lecit to wonder if at some point her decision to stay at his side wasn't for her purposes anymore, even if that was what she kept telling herself—but this doesn't make her actions towards Lelouch any less wrong, any less selfish and manipulative.
As I stated before, among the three C.C. is the only one who, even if she truly had feelings for him, never prioritised them over herself. Even the scene where she comforts him after Euphemia's death is ambiguous, since those words and that gesture came from a person who was taking advantage of him all along.
What about Lelouch though? To me it's always been even shocking how open his feelings for her were (whether you intend them as romantic or not, again, it doesn't matter!). We know him as a person who always acts quite cold (even if he's not), but then we have "I don't know why snow is white, but I think it's beautiful", "If you're a witch then I shall become a warlock", "I promise you the smile you never had", even that snarky "I cannot be friends with a goddess, I've made a contract with the devil". He worries that she could get hurt or die even if he knows she's immortal. To not speak about how he allows himself to be vulnerable in front of her and just her.
So, to refer to the title, what I find "amusing" is how the girl he shows most openly his feelings for is exactly the one who apparently reciprocate less and, for a fact, the one whose reasons for being at his side have always been not totally genuine.
That could open another matter of analisys which I find interesting about Lelouch, namely how his relationship with Suzaku is an ulteriore example of how he clings the most to the people who somewhat reject him and don't give him any assurance that they won't leave him. From a psychological point of view, it seems in line with a young man who in his childhood has suffered from severe trauma bounded to loss and abandonment. It's common in these cases to have the strongest reactions to real or imaginary threats of abandonment, while unconsciously re-enacting the trauma by being emotionally driven towards those who show they could leave at any moment unless you make efforts to hold them back. But this could be the subject of another topic one day, a topic that I would probably call "why I think that Lelouch shows many symptoms of borderline personality disorder, despite the more popular fan-diagnosis that I feel are sometimes dued to a general misunderstanding of personality disorders". Well, that's it! I'm curious to read your opinions, if you like to share :)

SHIPPING INFO:// Answer the following for your muse(s) so people know how shipping works on your blog
REPOST. DON'T REBLOG
*~Fair warning, unreliable munarrator~*
What’s your OTP for your Muse(s)?
I don’t have fandom OTPs (though I do have ships I favor over others). As such, I don’t have true rp OTPs. I understand this isn’t the norm… my condolences. 
To jump on the… no, PULL, the bandwagon, like a mule, I say… *chin-hands* I cherish all the ships you see here, from the familial to the romantic to the sadistic (currently active or not).  Since I enjoy a variety of dynamics, I feel very lucky to have the muns and friends who’ve taken the time to write with me, especially over this last year. 
What are you willing to RP when it comes to shipping?
I like to feel things out through the writing and let the ships sail organically and perhaps also majestically along the Aegean... or straight into Charybdis; it depends. When the writing works, I find we’ll inevitably have conversations about where we want to set our sails. When in doubt or with a new mun, I try to follow your lead. Pre-establishing ships are something we have to discuss and plot. 
I don’t partake in pregnancy threads, nor do I read them. No exceptions.
How large does the age gap have to be to make it uncomfortable?
Mun can take or leave age gaps. The muse… In default aus, Modern!/Music!Ben’s around 30-34, and as (self conscious) public figures, I’m not sure either would date under 28. But Music!Ben is Music!Ben. Ex-Con!Ben is 34+ and, at any rate, would much rather any romantic interest be at least around his age. 
I move all over Dark!Ren’s timeline. Sometimes he’s he’s a 40-something-year-old cyborg who absorbed all his knights and roams wild space for fresh meat.  Sometimes, he’s a deranged 25-year-old still-kind-of-a-kid on a leash holding a bunch of other deranged kids on leashes. His primary interest is the Ren. You do the math. 
Are you selective when shipping?
Romance/sensual/sexual: Yes and no. No, because I like to ship. Yes, because consent, communication, compatibility, and chemistry are what make a ship fly. (Quadruplex, bitch!) We’re not getting to That Side of Neverland on nothing but pixie dust. 💅
Familial/platonic: Trick question, we still have to have the four Cs. 
As a side note on romantic ships, so long as we keep things PG-13/fade to black, we don’t have to talk all the time or often. We can sail side by side in silence while our muses figure things out.
How far do steamy moments have to go before they’re considered NSFW?
‘S’all about the motion of the ocean, na mean? If it gets kinky and implicit, we can keep it on the blog. If it gets kinky and explicit, we whisk it off to Discord. This only happens if we have a bond. This has been a PSA… 
Who are other muses you ship your muse with?
My muse has as many connections as I can write/keep up with. They can be seen right here on kylo-wrecked.tumblr.com for free! Read more—no jk. 
There is invariable potential.
@etoilebleu, @itmeanspeace, @ifyoucatchacriminal, @lastxdragon, @silverjetsystm, @valkxrie, @brooklynislandgirl, @nightmarefuele , @mayxthexforce , @chromium-siren , @smokinmirrors are some muns I ship with romantically. Sometimes, the ships are in a questionable state. Sometimes, they're toxic. Sometimes the ships are made out of lies. Sometimes, they're not even ship-shaped; who knows? They all have flags, and the flags flap proudly.
Famships with @desireandduty and @shadowedlights (exploring with @mnolith / @destincd).
Muses my variants are still getting to know (because I am slow, etc.): @bewitchingbaker, @smolcuriouskitten, @corinnebaileyrp, @southern-belle-outcasts (Nilza), @protectmypeople (lol).
Come one, come all.
Does one have to ask to ship with you?
Gone corporate: let’s have a quick check-in to see whether we’re aligned.
How often do you like to ship?
Gone automation: I’m sorry, I didn’t get that. Please try again later. *dial tone*
Are you multiship?
Yes, and as many muns have said before me, I ship across verses. Picture it: me on a good day, potentially you, shipping across the universe… 
Are you ship obsessed or ship more-or-less?
More-or-less. I’m here for juicy writing of all types. 
What is your favorite ship in your current fandom?
I’m a near-fandomless sham. Something broke in me, idk. I can think of the most erotic scene I’ve seen in a movie in quite some time, but it’s controversial and doesn’t belong here teehee. 
Finally, how does one ship with you?
We write a little. We talk a little. The rest we’ll make up as we go along. I don’t love plotting myself into corners when the sea we write on is fluid. Feels weird, man.

au + trope + prompt game ♡ band!au + fake dating + “you had no idea, did you?” 👀
Welllll . . you know how the last time I did this I said story got away from me . . .
This time, the dang fic didn't even wait for me to tie my shoes - it took off and I wasn't able to catch up. So not even remotely close to a drabble, its hilarious.
So, @datshitrandom, here are 2,343 words for you. (HOLY CRAP)
1.) can I confess when I first saw "band!au" I was like - marching band? highschool like band class sort of thing?
And then I was like OOOOOOHHH, duh . . rock band.
I really should stop writing so late at night 😂
2.) Not sure if this is what you expected with fake dating, but here's hoping you like it 😊
3.) I'll put all these up on A03 eventually they all turned out cute - and I might expand on some of them if there's any interest .
****
“Thank you! And good night!”
The venue was filled with the screams and cheers of yet another satisfied audience. Dalton had nothing if not an extraordinarily rabid and enthusiastically effusive fan base. Kurt couldn’t argue. They helped with the paychecks that he had to pass out every week.
“We love you, Blaine! We love you, Seb!”
“We love you! We love you! We love you!”
“You’re my OTP!”
“You’re amazing!”
And so many other comments like them echoed off the walls of the venue amongst ear-splitting screams and applause.
Up on stage, the two frontmen for the band shook their heads, chuckling at all the commentary they were able to hear over the crowd. Blaine and Sebastian grinned, slung a free arm around each other’s waists, and held their instruments up proudly as they walked off stage together.
The crowd ate it up. More screams erupted. Kurt swore he nearly saw a couple of young women faint - or came pretty close to it.
Pretty much a typical show for Dalton.
Another night down. Another city to go.
*****
Kurt had lingered by the merchandise table, carefully watching to ensure everything was packed away so it could be carted off to the tour bus that waited in the back of the building.
“Oh god,” he heard as the remnants of the audience filtered out of the building behind him. Did you see it? When Blaine took off his jacket - and THOSE ARMS. WHAT THE FUCK! I thought I was going to faint.”
“Tell me about it,“ another voice responded. “And that smirk Seb threw him when he did it. Lord, those two will be the DEATH of me.”
“Can we talk about how sad I am that they don’t swing my way…but man, what a hot couple the two of them are?”
Kurt rolled his eyes and tried very hard not to comment out loud.
Oh, if they only knew.
*****
After triple and quadruple checking (thank goodness for these days and his OCD tendencies), everything was in its place in the truck, and the roadies were sent off to the next venue to get a head start preparing for the next day’s show. Kurt worked his way backstage and knocked on the greenroom door several times before walking straight in.
And he was immediately treated to a front-row viewing of Sebastian playing a very vigorous round of tonsil hockey with his boyfriend.
“For fucks sake, don’t you two have a hotel room for that?” Kurt snarked playfully as he used the clipboard he had in hand to smack Sebastian on the ass.
Seb flipped Kurt the middle finger from his position on the couch, straddling Adam Crawford, the band’s newest drummer. He continued making out with Adam for a few minutes before addressing the band’s tour manager.
“Jealous, Kurt?” Seb snarked back, his eyes twinkling. “I got me a tasty English crumpet. I know you’re an Anglophile and all, but hands off. This one’s mine. Not sharing.” Seb pouted, stuck out his tongue childishly, and then twined his arms around Adam’s neck, beaming down at him.
“Behave, love,” Adam chastised, nuzzling Sebastian’s neck as he pinched Seb’s side. Seb squawked and batted Adam’s hand away.
“Why don’t you make me,” Sebastian growled seductively before he bent forward to kiss Adam again.
“You bet I will …“
Kurt rolled his eyes, laughing. “Oh my god. Seriously. Hotel room. Fuck like rabbits, I don’t care. Go now. Before you defile this greenroom and we’re forced to pay the venue for stream cleaning all of the furniture AND the carpet in here.”
“Spoilsport,” Seb teased as he got up and pulled Adam up off the couch. Sebastian almost reached the door before hesitating and turning to Kurt with a concerned look. “H . .how’s it look out there?” he asked carefully.
Kurt gave Sebastian a reassuring smile. “You’re all clear - you and Blaine went out already to sign autographs - and last I checked, any fans had dispersed,” Kurt said straightforwardly. “Security hasn’t spotted any stragglers - no one out of the ordinary. They’ll escort you straight from the door of the venue to the vehicle. I didn’t see any paparazzi either. But just in case, try to keep your hands off each other until AFTER you’re in the car. It’s waiting for you outside.”
Seb nodded and squeezed his boyfriend’s hand tightly. Adam leaned over and kissed Sebastian lightly on his temple. “It’ll be OK,” Adam reassured his boyfriend before turning to Kurt. “Thank you for all of this.”
Kurt shook his head. “It’s really Blaine you’ve got to thank. He’s doing the bigger part. I’m … I’m just doing my job.”
Adam and Sebastian shared a strange look between them. They both knew it was more than that. “Kurt,“ Sebastian said quietly. “Talk to him. You really should. Tell him how you feel.”
Kurt clutched his clipboard to his chest like a shield, shaking his head again. He couldn’t. Kurt just couldn’t tell Blaine how he felt - how he'd had been head over heels for Blaine since all three of them were high school friends, and Blaine and Sebastian tossed around the pipe dream of starting a band and breaking into the music industry.
Kurt refused to put Blaine in that position. Especially now.
He probably didn’t reciprocate the feelings anyway.
“Go,” Kurt said as he pushed Adam and Sebastian towards the door, refusing to dwell on his unrequited love for Blaine Anderson any more than he had to. “Tour bus leaves at 9 am sharp tomorrow morning. Don’t make me have to drag you out of another hotel room naked. Again.” He gave Sebastian a warning look.
“I’ll keep him on task, boss,” Adam grinned as he assured Kurt. He tugged Sebastian out the door, patting Kurt on the back as he passed.
****
Ten minutes later, Blaine popped out of the bathroom, dressed casually and towel-drying his hair.  Peeking from under the towel, he looked around the green room, spying only Kurt on the couch, checking his phone. No Sebastian or Adam in sight.
“Oh shit, am I the last one?”
Kurt tossed him a smile as he pocketed his device. “Hey, don’t even worry about it. Seb left with Adam and headed to the hotel. Puck is driving them, and he’ll make sure they get back to their room safely.”
Blaine let out a breath he didn’t realize he had been holding. The tension in his shoulders eased a bit after hearing that. “I’m sorry. I know it’s been a while, but …”
Kurt nodded. “Hey, I get it. Believe me, I’m the same way, kind of checking over all of our shoulders all the time. But we’ll get through this.”
Tossing the towel onto the nearby makeup table, Blaine sighed. “It’s still shit, though, the whole thing. I wish it never happened. Not to Seb, certainly not to Michael. They didn’t deserve that.” Blaine ran his fingers through his hair nervously, making a tousled mess of his damp curls.
Kurt crossed the room and pulled Blaine into a hug. “I know,” he whispered. Stepping back, Kurt began running his fingers through Blaine’s haphazard hair in an attempt to make him more presentable. “Now that’s better,” he said, trying to chase away the sad smile on Blaine’s face.
Blaine nodded, still lost in his thoughts.
“You know,” Kurt said quietly. “What you’re doing for him and Adam. That’s big, Blaine. It’s a big sacrifice on your part.”
Blaine shook his head as he took a deep breath. “But it’s not,“ he told Kurt. “I care about you and Seb too much. You both saved my ass when my Dad threw me out. You kept me sane, kept me clean. I wouldn’t be here today if it weren’t for the both of you.” Blaine whispered, his mind suddenly racing back to that terrifying day that changed everything for all three of them. “I … I don’t know what I’d do if … if that happened again. I’d do anything to protect you… both of you.”
Kurt was right there with him, reliving everything as well. That fateful day, an unhinged Dalton fan tore through security brandishing a gun, shouting threats specifically at Sebastian and his then-boyfriend, Michael. Michael tried to shove Seb aside, but it didn’t matter. In the chaos that ensued, the gun went off more than once, and any assembled fans waiting for pictures and autographs scattered. The shooter also was able to slip away in the insanity.
In seconds, both men were found on the ground bleeding.
Michael never made it to the hospital alive.  
Seb was numb and in denial for months, half afraid to step on a stage again.
Until Blaine came up with a plan.
Kurt felt Blaine’s hands tighten around his waist. His fingers gripped Blaine’s arms as they held on to each other as the support system they’d always been for one another. “Pretending to date Seb just to throw off any potential nut jobs is not a way to live, Blaine. It’s not fair to you.” Kurt insisted.  
Blaine said quietly. “If I hadn’t talked Seb into this whole band thing, it never would have happened. Michael would still be alive. Hell, they might have been married by now and adopted kids.  They could have grown old together - could have had it all. This is the least I could do for him.”
“You’re putting your life on hold, Blaine. For how long?”
“For as long as it takes. It’s not like . .” Blaine’s mouth drew into a tight line as he pulled away, walking towards the far end of the room.
“Not like what?” Kurt asked curiously.
“It’s not like I can have the guy I want to be with anyway.”
Kurt’s heart felt like a vice was squeezing it. Of course. Of course, Blaine would have someone he wanted. This was Blaine: beautiful, silly, kind-hearted, considerate Blaine. He had a whole world of people screaming for him every night. He could have the pick of any of them. It’s obvious that Blaine would have his eye on someone by now.
“Oh,” Kurt said, trying hard to keep his voice steady. “I … I didn’t know. I’m sorry it won’t work out.”
“Me too …“ muttered Blaine as he grabbed his jacket off the hook on the wall and went to leave, looking grim and resigned.
“No, wait,“ Kurt cried out as he rushed over, grabbing Blaine’s wrist and stopping him just before he went out the door. “Who is it? We … we can fix this somehow. We found a way for Sebastian and Adam to be together. We can figure something out for you, too.” 
As much as it pained him to say those words, Kurt couldn’t bear to see Blaine so miserable - not when there was someone out there he had his heart set on.
“No, you can’t. You can’t do a thing.”
“Yes, Blaine . . yes we can.”
“Just leave it alone, Kurt,” Blaine growled, yanking his wrist free from Kurt’s tight grip. Blaine scowled as he moved further away from Kurt, dragging his fingers through his hair again in frustration and pacing the room like a caged animal.  
“Stop being so goddamn stubborn. I’m telling you, we can figure something out.” Kurt insisted.
“Kurt…”
“Blaine…” 
“Let it go.” Blaine hissed.
“Blaine,” Kurt said, starting to get more and more exasperated as the conversation continued. “You deserve to be happy. Who is it? Just tell me.”
Blaine spun around, a distraught look in his eyes: “You!” he shouted. “You, Kurt, it’s always been you!”
“W . .what?” The clipboard Kurt held slipped from his fingers and clattered to the floor.
“You,” Blaine said slowly. “Kurt, ever since I saw you walk down those stairs at Dalton, there’s been no one else but you.”
“All this time … ” Kurt mumbled quietly to himself.
“You probably don’t feel the same. And that’s fine,” ranted Blaine, though he sounded the farthest from being “fine” as a person could be.
Kurt shook his head. “You are completely clueless sometimes. Do you know that?” In a few short strides, Kurt crossed the room, grabbed Blaine’s face in his hands, and shut Blaine up with a kiss.
For a few short seconds, Blaine stood there, shocked. Kurt pulled away to ask what was wrong, only to be yanked closer as Blaine kissed him back hungrily. It was all tongues and teeth and bitten lips as they finally released years of emotions that they had been holding back from each other. 
“You had no idea, did you?” Kurt whispered after they resurfaced for air a few minutes later.
Blaine shook his head. He gazed back at Kurt, and that’s when Kurt saw it.
The moment the joy fizzled out of Blaine’s eyes and in its place, he could see concern and fear reflected back at him.
“Kurt, “Blaine whispered. “We shouldn’t. We. . .we can’t do this,” he choked out as he slowly began to pull away.
Kurt gripped Blaine’s arms tighter. “No. Please, don’t say that. I … I love you, Blaine.”
“It’s because I love you that … I can’t put you in this position, Kurt. I can’t let what happened to Michael even be a possibility for you. Don’t you get it? I … I can’t lose you.” 
Blaine screwed his eyes shut, seeing the blood pour through his fingers as he tried that day to help Michael. He still could hear Seb’s weak voice calling out to his boyfriend, the paleness of Sebastian’s face before his eyes rolled back, and he collapsed into Kurt’s arms. It was too much. “I can’t lose you. Not like that,” Blaine repeated painfully. “I wouldn’t be able to survive it.”
“You won’t.” Kurt pleaded. “You’re not going to lose me.”
“You can’t promise that. You can’t predict the future.”
“And you can’t live your life worrying about what might happen,” Kurt said firmly, wrapping Blaine back into a tight embrace. “I’m never saying goodbye to you. Do you understand me?”
“Kurt …”
“No.” Kurt pulled back and gently cupped Blaine’s face in his hands. “You listen to me. We will figure something out. Somehow. We’ll all stay safe. I promise.”
Blaine stared back into those blue eyes and nodded, his heart hoping with all his might that Kurt was right.

Daniel and Esmae for prompt 21- secretive
((OTP Prompts))
May I just say how absolutely STOKED @marydublinauthor and I are to see Daniel and Esmae getting a request?? These sweethearts bring us so much joy, and we haven't paid them a visit in ages 😭
I decided to write a story about mermaid!Esmae in honor of MerMay coming to a close soon!
You can read more about this AU here!
Tumblr media
The Night Cove
Daniel considered it their cove. His and Esmae’s, even if she loved it more than him. In their months together, they had explored up and down the shore near the castle. This inlet, with its massive rocky overhang and calm waters, was Esmae’s favorite.
Daniel might have loved it more if not for the black rocks that jutted above and below the surface. He’d gotten better at not scraping himself, but nighttime visits always ended in a few mishaps. He could already feel the sting of a few cuts.
Esmae, of course, had no trouble navigating the environment. Other than a few torches Daniel had lit up on the shore, she was the only source of light. Her magenta glow darted about in the water like living starlight. 
Having found a relatively comfortable rock to lean against, Daniel observed with with stunning clarity as she made a beeline for him. Surfacing, she hefted something proudly over her head.
“What’ve you got now?” he asked softly.
A tiny orange starfish—well, tiny to him. It was nearly the size of her torso.
Bringing himself lower in the water, Daniel inched his palm closer for Esame to place the tiny creature in his hand. She appeared greatly entertained whenever he interacted with little things from her world.
He brushed the starfish with his fingertip, raising his eyebrows at the curious sensation of its arms unfurling calmly against his palm. 
Esmae watched raptly, an endeared smile on her face. It’s very sweet, how gentle you are. I didn’t think humans were capable of that. Although she couldn’t speak to him above water, he memorized every word she graced him with when he joined her below the surface.
As she reached for the starfish to return it home, the sash around her upper body slipped a bit, revealing enough to make Daniel blush. She caught his expression and broke into a silent giggle. She adjusted the cloth and gave him a pointed look. Will you be alright after seeing all that skin, you poor thing?
Apparently, merpeople had a different idea of what body parts could be casually exposed. He never ordered Esmae to cover herself, but his flushed face and avoidant gaze were distractingly funny, according to her. He swore that sometimes she created a loose knot on purpose.
“Must you laugh at me every time?” he scoffed.
The grin on her face said it all. Her smooth skin brushed his palm as she took the starfish, prompting him to hold his breath. She was so soft—something he’d never been able to appreciate when he’d stupidly held her captive. Now, he felt unworthy of each bit of contact she gifted him with.
As she escorted the starfish away, she took the nearest source of light with her. As he began to turn in the direction of the shore, the water rippled in the firelight. He froze as something stirred beneath the surface—something that certainly wasn’t Esmae. 
A gray fin broke through with near silence.
Daniel froze, his mind rejecting what he saw. A shark shouldn’t have been tempted to enter such shallow waters—yet there it was, heading straight for him. He snapped out of his stupor and jolted back with a noisy splash. 
“Esmae,” he breathed, then raised his voice. “Esmae!”
His back hit one of the large rocks. He tried to shuffle to the side, looking around madly for Esmae’s glow while keeping track of the shark’s path. The scrapes on his arms and legs stung sharper than ever—had he drawn the beast right to their cove with his blood?
He shouted her name louder. The shark circled the rock, its fin dipping below and above the rippling water like a taunt. If he dared to pull away to escape, he had no chance of outmaneuvering the predator. Was this how Esmae felt when he’d found her trapped in the tidepool all those months ago?
Except this shark wasn’t overwhelmingly massive. Not to him. It could take a chunk of him, and he might survive. But Esmae… She’d be less than a mouthful to the creature.
As if the thought of that summoned her, a magenta glow bobbed into view beneath the clear water. A shout caught in Daniel’s throat.
Idiot! What was he thinking, shouting for her? He was drawing her right to her death.
“No!” he shouted. “Go back!” 
But she drew closer. Daniel tensed, then lunged out to get her to safety. The shark darted around the rock and tossed its head toward his arm. He snatched himself back, breathing heavily. 
Esmae paused. Her little, glowing form waved off Daniel flippantly. Then she approached the shark without an ounce of hesitation.
Daniel gaped as she swam alongside the beast. When the pair circled near, he swore he saw her little lips moving. He’d seen her play with fish before, but this was insane. 
Before he could think to duck under the water to hear what she was saying, the shark swam off, exiting the cove calmly.
Relief came gradually. He couldn’t believe either of them were safe. Even when Esmae swam up to him, he didn’t take his eyes off the shark’s direction until Esmae nudged his abdomen insistently. He flinched at her touch and looked down to find her peering up at him with an amused expression. She was so close, his slowing heartbeat picked up speed again.
“W-what on earth was that?” he stammered. “You were speaking to it? What did it want? How did you make it leave?” 
Her smile widened. At least she was entertained. She found his hand and gave his finger a downward tug. After another wary look at the open water, Daniel lowered himself under the surface, intent on getting an explanation from her. 
She took one look at his wide-eyed expression and giggled. He hadn’t heard her musical little voice for hours. “Are you alright?” she asked rather sweetly. She got comfortable near his hand, weaving her lithe form through his fingers.
All he could do was shrug in response.
She giggled again. “That shark helps guard my people. It ensures other predators stay away. My father has a way of convincing certain beasts to be on our side.” She leaned her cheek on his knuckle. “It must have followed me. It came to make sure I was alright.”
Short on breath, Daniel surfaced briefly. “You were able to speak with it?” he asked, struck with more wonder than fear now.
“No,” she said when he ducked down again. “It’d be a bit like talking to… to a dog or a horse.” She enunciated the animals’ names strangely, as they were wholly foreign creatures to her until recently. “I was able to send it off. Though, it’s a good thing they can’t speak. Otherwise, it’d tell my father where I’ve been spending my days.” 
She smirked conspiratorily at him. Daniel surfaced. It was rare she spoke of her people, least of all her father. Daniel knew for certain that her people wouldn’t be pleased if they discovered she had made contact with a human. Considering the awful two weeks he’d put her through when they met, Daniel could say little to defend humanity.
“I suppose it’s for the best we stay secretive,” he sighed. He gave another cursory glance at the water, relieved that he saw no more fins breaching the surface. He couldn’t shake how fantastically brave she was for putting herself between him and the beast. He peered down at her. “So—how can you tell the good sharks from the bad ones?”
There was a bit of a wild look in her eyes when he met her under the water again. She moved from his hand and tapped his nose teasingly. “I can’t. I suppose we just got lucky.”

Year of the OTP challenge 2023
Tumblr media
So I post a lot of my fanfics on here to share with everyone because well I write them when I'm inspired. That being said last year my dear friend @mischief-and-tea-by-the-sea convinced me to sign up for the @yearoftheotpevent challenge which was unlike any I'd ever taken the opportunity to participate in before where each month you were given prompts to use as guidelines and tell stories with them. I decided at the beginning to go with something that told a WinterIron story from a beginning and over the months evolved through a year's time (or I should say two timelines as the story truly begins decades earlier and is mixed with the 'present'). Throughout the year the story took a lot of twists and turns becoming it's own epic thing in it's 12 different monthly story installments telling a larger picture for these two along the way. It's a lot of story because well it took a whole year to produce and develop, but it's one that I'm particularly proud of because it was a HUGE accomplishment for me that I can proudly say I finished. With that in mind if anyone likes WinterIron and is looking for something with some length behind it to give them a read through the colder time of year, then I welcome everyone to take a look at this year long project under the cut as I had a lot of fun with it!
Thanks to everyone who has taken the time to read this one and encourage me along the way in writing. It was truly a once in a lifetime adventure challenge and so much fun! I learned a lot about myself as an author through it and I would encourage anyone up for a challenge to give it a try in the future as well!

character ask game for Iris and Caitlin? :)
Iris
Sexuality headcanon:
Bi or pan!
OTP:
Westallen 🥰 I also love Westhallen, Snowest, and Barriscowest!
BROTP:
Iris & Cisco 💞 sunshine twins for the win
NOTP:
Iris/Eobard, Iris/Snart
First headcanon that pops into my head:
Iris is a decent singer, but she hates singing solo. She loves singing with Barry 💞
(She misses him so much when she loses him 😭 she can hardly bear to sing a single note without him there to harmonize)
Favorite line from this character:
"In this world, the bravest thing you can be is optimistic" words to live by!
One way in which I relate to this character:
I also can't cook very well 😅 working on it though
Thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character:
Her Three List. Also the waterfront kiss. I just...*sigh*
Cinnamon roll or problematic fave?:
Cinnamon roll!
Caitlin
Sexuality headcanon:
Bi and/or aromantic!
OTP:
Snowstorm and Snowest 🥰
BROTP:
Caitlin and Cisco! I used to really ship them, but...as time goes on, I ship them less. I don't see them as siblings necessarily, though I do see that vision, but...idk. They're cute as a ship but I mostly prefer them as a brotp lately
NOTP:
Caitlin/Eobard, Caitlin/Wells (any of them). Also Caitlin/KF (I personally love the sisters angle for them)
First headcanon that pops into my head:
Caitlin had a toy doctor set and proudly carried it around everywhere 💞 she used it most often on her dad
(This is in fact me projecting, I miss my toy doctor set)
Favorite line from this character:
"It's not a burden if we shoulder it together"
One way in which I relate to this character:
I'm also a pre-med like her who had a passion for it from a young age!
Thing that gives me second hand embarrassment about this character:
The way she treated Jax in 2x5...yikes. (And the way some people on Tumblr apparently called that "a mom encouraging her son"...double yikes)
Also her stint with Amunet...girl wtf??
Cinnamon roll or problematic fave?:
Cinnamon roll! Though…problematic fave in some seasons (like s4 💀)
character ask game!

Sorry Hannah, I didn’t save the Hinny microfic since I typed it here 😔 but I got another one! Guessing you liked the first one? 😳 if so Dobnny approves!
Desire Set Ablaze (microfic Hinny)
He trailed kisses up and down the column of her throat. Taking his time nibbling on the sweet spot that would always have her dragging her nails down his back. He remembers when he first done it a weeks ago, he was shocked but quickly realized that the desire to make her come apart was becoming stronger with every passing second.
After reluctantly moving away from her delectable throat. Harry had to bite his bottom lip once he saw Gin’s freckled face scrunched up in both equal pleasure and annoyance of him no longer feasting upon her. If you ask him, that look rivaled her blazed one that she would give him before ever kissing him.
Hell, if only he had a camera he could take a picture of her right now just to show her hot fucking breathtaking beautiful she looks. The way her creamy breasts, that were decorated in a constellation of delicious freckles were slowly rising and falling. Even the two love bites he’d given her that were starting to darken close by her pink areolas, had made her look even more exotic. Honest to Merlin, he couldn’t help but stare at her, while she slowly opened her eyes and set her eyes upon him.
Who would’ve thought that sneaking out to the pond by the Burrow, while the rest of the family were doing chores would be the best bloody idea he ever had. He knew that their time under the blistering sun would surely come to an end soon. It was only a matter before either Ron or Hermione would make an excuse themselves so they could have a bit of a “walk” around the grounds of the Burrow. Yeah, as much as he loved his best mate, he wasn’t keen upon having him interrupt this moment he had with Gin-
“Oi! Are you going to just going to stare at me or can we continue?” Gin’s voice brought him out from his thoughts, Harry watched as she raised a brow smirked.
“I was just giving you a break, Giner-”
Before he could finish saying her name, Gin hand used all her strength to roll them over. His hot and sweaty back was now against the prickly grass. As he felt his girlfriend proudly straddle his thighs; Harry could only stare at the way each freckled thigh was now keeping him pinned to the earth beneath him. Not that he was complaining at all. Fuck, he could never complain, in reality this was his plan all along.
“Never, call me Ginerva…do you understand that Potter,” Gin gritted out as she slowly trailed her hands up and down his chest.
“Why not it’s your name isn’t it? Ginerva,” he smirked at the way her eyes narrowed at him.
“Seems like you’ve become a bit cocky, I’ll have to find a way to bring you down off your hippogriff.” Gin had said in a mock serious tone.
“Oh really, now how will you do that-” Harry had started to ask but realized that his girlfriend was clearly steps ahead of his game. He felt her lips begin a burning path down his chest, all while his treacherous body was begging for her to continue.
“Gin, you don’t-have to,” he groaned as he watched her red hair fan out all over his navel, she had quickly made it so close yet so far from his length.
“Oh, I most definitely do. Be a good boyfriend and hold my hair, will you?” Ginny smirked back at him, only seconds before watching her pink tongue lick the tip of his-
Woah, anyways that’s all I got for you my sweet-innocent little Hannah-Banana, hopefully this gets you through the day. Even though we both know that Dobnny is OTP, I suppose multishipping Hinny would be alright.
— sincerely yours, Dobnny anon
🥺

Tumblr media
thank you for taking time away from your otp to write hinny. i love your hinny, it is great.
I am scared to see if you ever write dobbny smut

Can I ask for #20 - child: "Look, I made this for you. I also made one for mum/dad/parent." with Beauyasha? Is that okay? If not, you can pick another pairing <3
20 more domestic OTP with children prompts this is going to be related to this drabble. not quite what the prompt asked but i thought it was cute.
The one thing Beau never thought she'd be grateful for was noise. In her line of work, silence is omnipresent and oppressive: silence in the library, silence while other Expositors are speaking, silently compiling research into a report, silently stalking a target through back alleyways. She's become far more comfortable with the sound of her own thoughts than she'd ever have imagined, which is why it's such a relief when she comes home on a night and opens the front door to a wall of sound.
Tonight, it's off-key Xhorasian folk songs and sizzling sausage on the stove and incoherent shrieks from the second bedroom, where, Beau assumes, Aurelia is, since she hasn't been greeted with a tackling hug about the knees as she'd've expected.
"Hey, babe," Beau calls, tossing her things unceremoniously onto the couch. "Smells great."
Yasha's singing cuts off as she turns to smile over her shoulder. "Hello! Hang on, let me get her." She takes a deep breath and bellows, "AURELIA! GUESS WHO'S HOME!"
The bedroom door slams open with such force that Beau instantly winces, anticipating the hole she'll have to patch up later. There's a blur, and then Beau is opening her arms just in time to catch the tiny half-elf girl who has launched herself up into them, already halfway through a sentence. "—so much fun, you're gonna like her, she has a pet bird but she didn't bring him, and we've been working so hard, can't wait to sh—"
"Whoa, whoa, whoa." Beau laughs, flipping Aurelia around so she's now sitting on her shoulders. "I missed basically all of that." It's only then that Beau spies a pair of eyes peeking out from behind the door frame to Aurelia's bedroom. "Who's that?"
Aurelia tugs impatiently on Beau's top knot. "I was telling you. That's Cherielle! She's new in my class!"
Cherielle appears, broad and tall for a girl Aurelia's age, with a familiar shade of green skin and the slightest hint of something protruding from her lower lip. She smiles shyly. "Hi, Mrs. Beau."
Beau smiles back. "Nice to meet you, Cherielle. Thanks for putting up with this one." She tickles Aurelia's bare foot, which kicks out as she giggles. "You stayin' for dinner?" Cherielle nods. "Well we're happy to have you."
Her view is suddenly blocked by the top half of Aurelia's face, which hangs upside-down in front of her. "We were making crafts!"
"Oh?"
"Yeah!" Without warning, Aurelia launches herself off of Beau's shoulders and races into her bedroom, pulling Cherielle with her.
Beau takes the brief reprieve to go into the kitchen and kiss her wife's cheek. "You give her coffee or something?"
"No, I think she's just...like this."
"Fucking hell, when does she start hating us?" Beau pauses, then asks, "You talk to Fjord?"
Yasha takes the sausage off of the stove, nodding toward the Sending Stone on the counter. "He's already routing this way."
"Good."
Just then Aurelia reappears, Cherielle in tow, and she proudly presents a bouquet of four paper flowers, each colored haphazardly and half-crushed in her hand. "Look! I made this for you!"
Beau wonders for a half a minute if she is actually going to dissolve. "You did?" She takes the flowers, crudely made and so, so wonderful, and pretends to sniff them.
"Mhm! And look—" She waves Cherielle forward, who produces a similar bouquet from behind her back. "Cherielle made one for Mama!"
"Oh goodness." Yasha wipes her hands on her apron and accepts the flowers from Cherielle. "Well they're gorgeous. The most beautiful flowers I've ever received."
Beau feigns a pout. "Thanks a lot, Cherielle. Now you've upstaged me."
The girls giggle, and then Yasha says, "Go wash your hands, we'll be eating in a few." They dash off, and Beau sets her flowers to the side with a sigh. "At least she's making friends."
"I'm not sure Cherielle had much choice in the matter." The two of them fix plates for dinner, and they set them onto the table just as the girls screech back into view. There is no silence at the table that night, not as Aurelia and Cherielle fill Beau and Yasha in on all of their schoolyard adventures, and Beau cannot imagine a better sound than the laughter and excited chatter of her little girl and her new friend.
