*vigilantes ch. ~64 and main manga ch. ~255 spoilers*
although idk if these are really spoilers if these chapters came out a couple years ago! anime-only fans beware. anyway here’s my extremely long rant about the obvious, not trying to explain anything- i gotta yell!
so that vigilantes arc destroyed me! i’m not good at immediately putting thoughts about media into coherent points but i’m just so sad :( first of all after catching up with the main manga, shirakumo, despite being technically dead during his introduction, rocketed up to one of my favorite if not my favorite character. aizawa is also up there for me- he was first introduced as this strict teacher who seemed to psychologically torment his students for the fun of it, or at least for some yet unknown ulterior motive. but we now know that, while still kinda harsh, he does this to give his students that lead-dropping-in-the-pit-of-your-stomach rush in order to push them to succeed (or something like that?). he truly cares about his students and their growth which has been demonstrated multiple clear times. but what drives him to be like this??
shirakumo!! his actions today are a clear answer to the pushes shirakumo gave him back when they were students. they’re so obviously influenced by shirakumo that they’re almost literally answers. the main chapters are a little foggy because i speedread them at 3 am, but i just caught up with vigilantes. 
at the start, aizawa sees himself as someone who’s constantly just behind and will stay there as everyone moves on. he trudges into class drenched after leaving the kitten behind and he’s super emo about it. meanwhile, shirakumo literally flies through the window, also drenched, saved not only the kitten but aizawa’s umbrella, and manages to put on this cheery (albeit borderline explicit) show about it. it’s a CLEAR contrast between the two and aizawa goes as far to say that he hasn’t reached his “true self yet” while he looks at shirakumo and then says that he starts to change. 
as if it’s not enough for aizawa to beat himself up mentally, his classmates bring him down for not having a “heroic” enough quirk. shirakumo is constantly stepping in to bring him back up, even during real work study stuff, and goes as far to lend him a pair of his goggles so that his eyes become more useful. this becomes a stronger bonding point between aizawa, shirakumo, and hizaishi for them to start looking to the future together. while wearing those goggles, which are protecting his sight from the strong winds on the roof, he stares into the sky, feeling like he’s getting swept into the future like the clouds in the wind. (also the clouds as a metaphor. damn)
and then we come to the last fight. everyone that aizawa looks up to is crushed in the wake of the villain, and he’s the last one standing. there’s a group of children to protect, and he’s panicking and drowning in his overthinking. the way he’s given a huge panel to himself only to be visually overwhelmed by his thought bubbles stood out to me. and then the thing that snaps him out is shirakumo’s voice cheering him on. it’s a bunch of simple praise, but it means everything in the situation. the friend who’s been pulling him up no matter how hopeless or apathetic aizawa feels is of course the one to spur him into action in a life-or-death situation. aizawa realizes he’s gotta fight immediately, and even reminds himself of exactly what shirakumo told him- that his quirk IS useful and levels the playing field. 
i was already kinda spoiled for this part since i read the main manga first, but hearing shirakumo’s cheering the entire time while aizawa is absolutely toiling to defeat this huge villain would have been touching regardless. and when he lands in triumph, hurting but victorious, he screams for his friend to hear that he did it!! but then you see this joy start to like. rot away as soon as it pans to kayama and hizaishi. it’s raining again (THE CLOUDS AS A METAPHOR! DAMN!). shirakumo’s corpse is lying feet away from him, staining the medics’ sheet with blood. i don’t have much to say about this part, it was just a lot for me to process!! also i’m still not entirely sure about the way his speaker works so i might be wrong here, but did he really spend his dying moments with a traumatic head injury cheering on his friend to not only beat the immediate danger, but to self-realization?? or maybe it was prerecorded? idk but either way, truly a hero. 
aizawa and hizaishi are left standing in the rain because once again, “it fits the mood.” so obviously there’s the callback to when aizawa first said that when he comes to class after leaving the kitten and i have yet to fully comprehend it because i have no braincells for interpreting media. i guess maybe it’s like- aizawa at first felt terrible for not being able to save even a kitten while being enrolled in the most prestigious hero course in the country. getting drenched while settling with (what he considers to be) a cowardly measure is the icing to the cake for his self-hatred. it’s the classic “this might as well happen” scenario to get soaked by random rain or a car splashing you with a puddle on a bad morning. rain is sad. but in comes shirakumo, equally drenched but still the bright light that he is. he’s also done everything aizawa couldn’t but wanted to and more in this situation. he could do it not just because of his storing quirk, but because he held the life of someone who needed saving more important than the school rules. this decorum lets the kitten slide as it makes itself at home in the classroom. the rain stops soon after. but then you have shirakumo’s death. once again, aizawa, and even hizaishi, who’s usually always upbeat (almost every panel of him was just him screaming YEAHHHHH. plz give him more dialogue) both agree that the pouring rain fits the mood. this also brings us back to the present that preceded the flashback- koichi just rescued a cat and a child from a villain with aizawa’s help, and now they’re standing under an awning to escape the rain. this situation is literally almost exactly what happened at the beginning of the flashback which is why i guess it brought it on, but it’s interesting to see what changed- aizawa is the one who’s learned from this situation and teaching the student the meaning of responsibility (using an abandoned cat as an example, no less), and they’re all properly shielded from the elements this time. i guess the conclusion (that could be totally wrong) i’m coming to is that the rain sort of represents the adversaries aizawa faces in life- his self-deprecation, those that don’t believe in him, his personal failures that he has been facing lately. shirakumo has always been there to guide him past it, and once he lifts up aizawa nothing can shake him again. but now that he’s definitively gone, it’s back to haunt him for this one last moment of sheer grief. it’s only this one moment though, as aizawa clearly uses this moment to move on and better himself not just for his sake, but for everyone counting on him. he’s escaped the rain.
it’s so clear how this manifests in the main manga and i’m so happy vigilantes was able to spin out such a good backstory and explanation for his actions!! one of the most immediate ways we see his ideals stand out is his taking in of shinsou as his apprentice from general studies. it’s absolutely because he sees himself in this boy. he has a quirk that’s seemingly useless once you get into combat and everyone thinks he’s a creep for it. more people might even wary around shinsou than aizawa’s case. during the a vs. b practice fights, shinsou explains what he did wrong, clearly upset at himself for not doing enough. aizawa immediately pulls himself up, reminding him that in order to achieve what he just said, he’d have to be a pro, and that what he managed was more than enough. these parallels between aizawa and shinsou are definitely hinted at in the main story, like when midoriya underestimate’s his prowess in combat at usj, but with the vigilantes arc everything is so much clearer. in the main manga, we get a direct reference of aizawa’s expulsion rate in relation to how it helps students grow when they face “’death’” as he’s interrogating kurogiri. though dramatic, i feel like it has to be linked to the dire situation aizawa faced when the pro heros and shirakumo got knocked out during that one fight because of its placement in the chapter. he understands better than most in the story that a lot of times pushes, whether big or small, are needed to grow. he wants to be to his students what shirakumo was to him.
OK EDIT because i didn’t realize there was more to the arc after 64 lol. so obviously after shirakumo dies aizawa’s and hizaishi’s dreams of starting a triple hero agency have been dashed. aizawa seems to distance himself from hizaishi, or at least they’re on uneasy speaking terms. he’s coping by training super hard and is bent on going solo after graduation, the opposite of what they had all planned. but this time, he has conviction on what he’s going to do with himself, and that’s great! he learns that you have to be there for yourself in life. there’s a small montage leading from graduation to where is now in vigilantes and it’s been hard, but he’s been making it. still a lone wolf as ever, aside from the pushes from kayama to become teachers with her and hizaishi at ua. he thinks doing that would be a stupid choice for him, he’s been alone this whole time and doesn’t work well with others (anymore, he thinks). but now that he’s in the cafe with everyone, he changes seeing everyone fawn over the cat but their new dreams of being a popular cat cafe. 
the impact of seeing their newfound hope brings him back to another flashback of the rooftop trio, and THE PARALLELS!!! of them also dreaming to start their hero agency based on their first rescue of sushi the cat. back in the present, aizawa, who’s been spacing off, suddenly realizes the sky and his mind have cleared (THE CLOUDS KEEP COMING BACK AS A METAPHOR!!! if this happens in the main story i’ll cry). i’m still not 100% sure of what exactly makes the dots connect for him, but it’s been hinted through the flashbacks and his reactions to the rescued cat that he’s actually a good teacher himself, though he had been mainly shown to have learned from others around him. he drilled husbandry requirements into shirakumo and interrogated koichi about responsibility as if they were second nature. i think aizawa realized that he’s actually always had a soft spot for watching people grow and do good things and wants to be a part of facilitating that. or at least because he wasn’t able to accomplish doing good with his friends originally, he wants to help other accomplish the goal he couldn’t. also the fact that kayama still sends him updates on sushi isn’t just really nice of her, but it’s also another representation of how aizawa’s convictions he developed as a student still drive him to do what he does today.
MY MAIN POINT IS: aizawa really loves shirakumo. to have so much of his character based in the lessons he purposefully or inadvertently taught him is an amazing testament to that appreciation. aizawa never emotes except for the occasional creepy smile when he psychologically toys with 1a, but the emotion he displayed during the interrogation really caught me by surprise. the apathetic emo character suddenly being truly happy or sad is a cliche but this panel right fucking here was so powerful to me:
Tumblr media
yeah his eyes are always bloodshot as a trademark to his quirk, but the emotional EXHAUSTION written on his face is so starkly different than his usual boredom. this feeling that horikoshi illustrates in two small panels is so human that it’s instantly recognizable deep in our hearts. we’ve all been in those heavy and direly serious moments that wrack our mental and emotional fortitudes, where the only response manageable without hideously breaking down is some subtle motion of the hand or crinkle of the face. we all know what this means without understanding the japanese onomatopoeia or needing additional dialogue. before i read vigilantes, i still immediately understood what this man meant to aizawa. and that’s why i love shirakumo so much!! we all know at least a little how aizawa used to feel as a student, and to have someone constantly pushing you and acting as such a light in your moments of darkness is something so incredibly special. i really hope they’re able to get him out of his nomu state so those three can finally become heros together :’)
Tumblr media
god!!!!!!!!!!

A Whole New World Prelude Pt 3
Key:
E/C = eye color
H/C = hair color
H/L= hair length
S/C = skin color
Y/N = your name
L/N = last name
N/N = nickname
(Two hours later)
I screamed, {E/C} eyes shooting open and quickly sitting upright. Not prepared, I smacked my head into something equally as hard.
"Ow! What happened?" I asked, rubbing my head. 
"Ye bloody passed out on us two hours ago. I got ye stitched up." Harry explained, startling me. Opening my eyes, once more, I saw Harry pressing his palm to his own forehead, wincing as he did so. “Why is yer head so ‘ard!!” he hissed, glaring at me between his fingers.
"S-sorry!" I exclaimed, backing up.
I stopped when I accidentally knocked over a photo frame. I froze, catching the frame before it could fall. Lifting it up, I turned to look at it. A family photo it would seem.
Is that his dad? Wow he doesn't look like the Captain Hook I remember. His mom seems very pretty, and nice. But wait, how was this picture taken?
"Is this your family?"
"Ye. Now if ye don't mind." Harry took the photo out of my hands before I could even say anything else.
I blinked. "You have sisters?" I blurted out.
"Ye, now shut yer mouth and come on. School's out now and Uma wants us on the Lost Revenge." Harry stated, grabbing my wrist and pulling me off the bed.
~~~At The Lost Revenge~~~~~
I froze as soon as we got on the ship. Everyone was looking at me. I tried hiding behind Harry. Wincing in pain as I released my grip on Harry's jacket. 
'It's gunna be ok. It's gunna be alright.' I repeated in my head.
"{Y/N}? {Y/N}!" Uma yelled snapping me out of my thoughts.
I peeked out from behind Harry to see Uma glaring at me. 
"Were you listening?" She almost growled at me, I shook my head.
She rolled her eyes. "Well then you're going to pretend you know how to handle a damn sword. Come on crew! Let's prepare to face those worthless brats!" Uma exclaimed.
The crew cheered, holding up their swords. Harry took a spare sword from one of the crew and took my {dominant} hand and placed the sword handle there. Of course I still winced from the pain. 
Harry walked me over to a part of the deck and instructed me to stay put and to look mean. As soon as he walked away I looked up at the sky and noticed a small crack in the sky. 
'Huh? Wait, is that the barrier they were talking about?' I thought to myself, not even realizing that around the pupils in my eyes were thin rings of gold. Barely noticeable. 
"Oh Shrimpy~! What have you got there? That new girl shouldn't even be here!" An all too familiar voice boomed from the docks.
I shivered and gripped the sword handle tighter.
Mal and her gang. 
My hands started to shake. A memory of my past flashed through my mind.
My mother screaming at me when she found me in the backyard in the rain. But what she was screaming at me about was that the rain didn't touch me. It was pouring yet I was completely dry. I knew I had an affinity with water. But with this damn barrier I'm just getting nothing. Maybe it was just in my world. Maybe I'm just a freak..
Suddenly a knife came flying towards me. On some miracle of reflex I swung the sword and reflected it. I looked up and saw a boy… What did Harry say his name was.. Jack? No…. Josh? No….. Jay! That's his name.
Jay was Jafar's son. Hmmm cute but not my type. Suddenly I was sword fighting Jay. And I had never fought with a sword before…. Wait have I? Maybe as a small child.
"What's your name, new girl?" Jay asked me, snapping me out of my daydream.
"I don't have to tell you!" I replied, smirking.
Jay smirked as he continued to sword fight with me, slowly pushing me towards the edge of the ship. Shit. If he keeps at this I'm going to fall in. And yea, I never learned how to swim.
I'm unsure if he could see the slight fear in my eyes or he just thought he had the upper hand. But all of a sudden Jay got up close to me, wrapping an arm around my waist. He then whispered in my ear.
"We could use someone like you on our side. Consider this our offer~!" Jay smirked, a very quick peck to my cheek before he let me go.
I was too out of it. Didn't realize I was falling till i hit the ocean head first. Unprepared, I started drowning. Struggling under the water, my eyes were getting heavy. All I could think was, 'Why don't my powers work?????'
As my vision started fading the last thing I saw was a figure, then darkness.
~~~~~~~~~~~
"{Y/N}? {Y/N}???" I could hear my name but it was so far away.
Air? I could feel air entering my lungs. 
My eyes shot open and I quickly sat up, coughing up water.
"Oh good ye're alright! I'm gunna kill tha' bastard!" Harry exclaimed.
I looked up after coughing up all the water that was in my lungs. Harry was sitting on the beach, drenched, smudged eyeliner. And oh my god, my face was definitely heating up, mostly because Harry looked absolutely hot. Shit.
I sneezed. Shivering from having just been in the ocean. Harry sighed and stood up. Holding out a hand to me.
“Come on. We gotta go get ye dried off so ye don’t catch a cold.” Harry stated.
I grabbed his hand and with his help got up on my feet.
My {H/L} {H/C} hair was soaking wet. My clothes were soaked. My nose is starting to burn from the salty ocean water. I looked at Harry, hugging myself.
“L-Let’s g-go. I’m f-f-freezing!” I exclaimed in a shivering stutter.
Harry smirked, grabbing my hand in his. “Come on, {Y/N}. Let’s go back to my place, well I guess since ye’ll be stayin with meh it’s “our” place. But anyways come on.” Harry rambled on, pulling me to follow him.
Once we got to the apartment Harry had me go into the run down bathroom while he looked for some clothes for me to wear. I stood in the small bathroom, examining my surroundings. There wasn’t much. An old sink, a toilet that somehow manages to work, and a shower that looks like it could use some scrubbing down. I was startled when Harry opened the bathroom door and threw some clothes at me.
“There ye go. They were meh older sister’s clothes. They should fit. Ye can dry off with that towel in tha’ corner.” Harry stated.
I looked over at him and noticed his eyes were closed. At least he’s a gentleman. He closed the door, leaving me in the bathroom alone. I blinked, feeling my face heat up again. Was it just the thought of him seeing me? I shook my head. No. He’s only helping me because Uma would get mad at him if her newest recruit was sick. Also, is there medicine on this island? I have a feeling there isn’t.
I quickly dried off and got changed. {If your H/L is medium/long, then: I put my hair in a high ponytail.} I took a deep breath and opening the door. Harry was in the small kitchen area, though all it had was a retro styled rundown fridge and a sink. 
“T-Thanks for lending me your sister’s clothes.” I smiled.
Harry waved the back of his hand at me as he was at the kitchen sink. Was he hand washing dishes? 
I looked around the house. Messy, small, kind of reminded me of those studio apartments back home. This was definitely bigger than the apartment I had. But this one is definitely messier. Can’t complain though. I guess this is what my life is gunna be now. Hmm. 
“{Y/N}? Ye there? We need ta go. Uma’s gunna want us at the shop.” Harry explained, now standing at the front door, hook in hand.
How long has it been now? I walked over to him and we walked outside, and towards the Chip Shop. I looked up at the cloudy sky. Hmm. Has it really been an hour and a half already? Wow. 
“Ye alright lass?” Harry asked, raising his eyebrow in confusion.
“I’m alright, the day is just going by very fast that’s all. And…. I’m just thinking about the fight on the ship.” I responded, rubbing my left wrist with my right hand.
Harry continued with his confused look. “What do ya mean by that?” 
“Well. So um. Back in my world I had a small affinity for water. But here I can’t even make the water do what I want even a little. So I’m just bothered by that.” I explained as we walked through the market. 
I watched Harry steal a slightly rotten piece of fruit from a stall. Understanding now that this is not a place where good things happen. It feels like they get the leftovers from the mainland. I looked around as we got closer to the Chip Shop. 
This was just the beginning of my life here in this new world. What happens next? Well just wait and see? ;-)
That’s it for the Prelude! Just to let you all know that each chapter is gunna be 3 parts each. And oh boy is Chapter 1 gunna be exciting! Hope you all enjoy!

8x01: We Need to Talk About Kevin
Then:
Tumblr media
P U R G A T O R Y
Now:
100-Mile Wilderness, Maine
1 Year Later
A couple is sleeping peacefully in the forest when a bright light fills the sky, waking the woman.
Tumblr media
The couple goes out to investigate when they hear rustling outside. It’s a deer! Close...it’s Dean! He’s looking more like a feral rat than a deer. I would not want to run into someone looking like Dean in the middle of nowhere, that’s for sure. He pulls his gun, asks where the road is, grabs a bag of their stuff, and skedaddles. Yikes. First, for anyone not caught up, let’s all collectively scream what we all thought on our first viewing: Where’s Cas??! Second, who the fuck hikes anywhere, let alone the 100 Mile Wilderness trail with that kind of gear?! Camp chairs? A lantern the size of a dining room chandelier? A tent that’s making Harry Potter quake? Anyway, I lol thinking this is the most unbelievable part of this scene, and not the dude who just got back from Purgatory. 
Clayton, Louisiana
4 Days Later
Cue up Styx “Man in the Wilderness”, and sit back and watch one of my favorite montages. Watching Dean walk down a road never gets old. He walks to a cemetery and digs up a grave. He chants an incantation over some bones, and voilà, he brings back to life a vampire! They embrace.
Tumblr media
Wait, what? 
In Kermit, Texas, Sam’s ditching on a woman AND a dog. He drives to Rufus’s cabin in Montana, where a hiding Dean assaults him with all the monster tests. They both pass, and hug. Sam is shocked. “I guess standing too close to exploding dick, sends your ass straight to Purgatory.” Dean explains the situation with the first dick joke of the season. Sam has further questions, and Dean is vague on the details. Sam also wonders about Cas. Dean shuts down a little more and admits, “Yeah, Cas didn’t make it.” 
Tumblr media
Sam presses the matter. “Something happened to him down there. Things got pretty hairy towards the end, and he... just let go,” Dean adds. So, he admits that Cas let go here, did he alter his memory after this? In any event, Dean’s really broken about it. 
Sam then admits that he got out of the life, tossed all his phones, etc. “Something happened to me this year, too.” Gah, like a complete breakdown and fugue state, but I will reserve my thoughts for my non-existent essay on the state of Sam’s mind when Dean and Cas were in Purgatory. That sends Dean into an anger spiral. (Natasha: LIMES)
He listens to all of Sam’s phone messages --the increasingly desperate and eventually disillusioned pleas for help from Kevin. 
Tumblr media
He was their responsibility, and Sam just ditched him. Uh, because he was in complete mental failure! Sam hears something in the background of the last message and is able to isolate the sound to a bus station. They track him to Michigan, where his girlfriend, Channing, is attending college. 
Once at the motel, Dean sees two boys playing with their toy guns, which sends him into a memory spiral. He’s chasing a vamp in Purgatory and eventually catches him. “Where’s the angel?”
Tumblr media
WhEreS tHe aNgEl?
W H E R E ‘ S  T H E  A N G E L?
??
?
(Don’t touch me.)
“You’re him. The human.” 
Like, excuse me? The monsters are all meeting up talking about the human wandering around Purgatory looking for that angel? LIKE PLEASE. No, please STOp. I can’t take it, even after all these years. 
Anyway, Dean keeps demanding to know where that goddamned angel is. The vamp refuses to say so Mr. Dramatic lops his head off set to a very elegant camera angle. 
Another monster attacks but Dean’s too far from his machete. Then ANOTHER monster attacks THAT monster. Spoiler: IT’S BENNY! 
Tumblr media
Later, in the motel, Dean suggests moving on, but Sam thinks he should get some rest. Dean goes into another anger spiral --probably because he couldn’t sleep for a year and all Sam did was sleep due to his complete breakdown. Sam trying to ignore that he didn’t have control of his world isn’t helping him with Dean. Sam found “a girl.” Well, actually, she was a fully grown woman, but go on… Listen, I don't like the Amelia stuff as much as the next person, so I have a very elaborate headcanon of Sam’s mental break and the symbolic fantasy world he created while he barely existed at the cabin. 
Tumblr media
Anyway, Sam asks Dean what Purgatory was like. “It was bloody. Messy. 31 flavors of bottom-dwelling nasties. Hell, most days felt like 360-degree combat. But there was something about being there.”
“It felt pure.”
It fElT PuRe
I T  F E L T  P U R E
Flashback to Purgatory, where Dean’s life is still saved by Benny, the vampire. Dean threatens to shiv him up the ass so...every friendship needs to start somewhere? The vampire knows an escape hatch out of Purgatory! But it’s only for humans. He’ll show him the portal as long as Dean smuggles his soul out of Purgatory. 
The first rule of Purgatory is you can’t trust anyone. Dean doesn’t trust Benny - not an inch. But he does need allies. He tells Benny that he’ll agree to that tenuous deal as long as they find “the angel” first.
Tumblr media
At a college, the Winchesters interview Channing. She hasn’t heard a word from Kevin and furthermore, would spurn his love forever now that he’s no longer going to Princeton. Ouch! After they leave, Channing’s eyes go black and she slices her roommate's throat so she can make a phone call. DOUBLE OUCH! She reports that Kevin still hasn’t gotten in touch with her, but Dean Winchester is back.
Trying to get some work done amongst the students, Sam experiences his own mournful flashback. He hit a dog! He shouted at veterinary hospital employees! Damn it, this is an animal hospital!!! I hand you a bloody dog, you fix! Shouting helps things happen! 
Sam bby.
Tumblr media
Dean arrives with a burger in hand, reunited with one of the loves of his life at least. Sam reports that he’s tracked Kevin to Iowa.
At a run down church in Iowa, the Winchesters pay a house call. Kevin immediately confronts them with a Borax-loaded supersoaker. Once he figures out they’re human, Kevin gives them the tour of his new digs. He’s learned how to ward against demons. And then while explaining his recent past, Kevin has his own flashback! Everyone gets one! 
In Kevin’s flashback, he’s been captured by Crowley who sits him down to work on another tablet. A DEMON tablet! Dun dun DUN! Kevin mines its secrets and tells Crowley that there’s a hell gate in Wisconsin. (Made out of cheese?) Demons gather ingredients for him and Kevin gets to have a MONTAGE of preparing a spell to open the gate. Only…
Tumblr media
...Kevin was hoodwinking the demons the whole time. 
Tumblr media
He’d found a demon bomb recipe and blasts away his guards while Crowley waits on a distant Wisconsin farm. 
Tumblr media
Back in the present, Kevin’s stowed the tablet somewhere safe but before he did that, he made sure to memorize one more important spell from the tablet: a spell to close the gates of Hell...FOREVER. 
Dean and Sam head outside to the...second story church deck?...to chat. Sam’s disappointed that Kevin seems further into the hunting life than before. Dean’s proud of the kid - “he’s in it whether he likes it or not.” Oof. Dean, your Winchester is showing.
Sam heads down to the candle-lit church. He apologizes to Kevin for bugging out on him - and on everything hunting related. It’s definitely staged like a confession.
Tumblr media
Kevin admits that he’s perturbed when he really stops and thinks about his life, post-prophet-revelation. Sam assures him that “it gets better.” Hmm RLY? Sam’s an optimist, and continues: if they can banish all the demons, Kevin might actually be free to live a good life. BRB weeping and shouting angrily at this show!
In Sam’s hazy flashback, he waits anxiously for the news from the vet. She reports that his dog will be okay. Sam corrects her - the dog isn’t his! She double barrel blasts him with sarcasm, implying that if he doesn’t take care of the dog he hit then he’s the worst person in the world. Which. Okay. I generally don’t mind Amelia though I think she demonstrably has terrible luck picking stable, healthy relationships. But this scene always has me rolling my eyes. It’s so normal to foist a dog on a stranger! Everyone has the means and time to care for a dog, not to mention a dog who has been seriously injured! A vet would not do this! Amelia, plz. 
Tumblr media
Amelia puppy dog eyes Sam, and he’s toast. He’s spent so many years working on his offensive puppy eyed tactics, he never thought to work on his defense!
The church begins to shake and wood splits apart Kevin’s devil’s traps. A couple of demons arrive, armed with more swagger than weaponry. There’s a zappy flashy kicky fight and then Crowley and Channing arrive. Crowley demands the tablet for Channing’s life. He flashes Channing back into control for a moment as proof of life. Kevin offers himself up in exchange for Channing’s freedom and heads off to “pack up.” Then Kevin lures Crowley and Channing to a holy water trap.
Tumblr media
As they’re being doused, the Winchesters and Kevin escape. While they drive away, Crowley orders the demon out of Channing and then kills her. Oof. 
Later, Dean gets a phone call as they stop for gas and snacks, and then passes it off as a wrong number. Kevin passes on donuts and beef jerky. He just saw his girlfriend die and that doesn’t lend itself well to gas station snacks. 
Dean offers up words of Winchester Solace™. “You’re in it now. Whether you like it or not you do what you gotta do.” Good talk, Dean! 
On Dean’s pee break, he furtively places a phone call. It’s Benny, the vampire from earlier! He’s lurking on the edges of a funeral in a not-at-all-suspicious way. He figured out cell phones! But not fashion.
Tumblr media
Dean tells him that they shouldn’t talk for a while since they’re both adjusting to life. Benny wistfully tells Dean that Purgatory WAS pure and he should have appreciated it more while he was there. They both admonish each other to be good (and presumably not go on a murderous rampage). Good talk!
WHERE’RE THE QUOTES?
We made it, brother
I don't know whether to give you a hug or take a shower
Nothing says "family" quite like the whole family being dead
Where’s the angel?
Hey, the rules are simple, Sam. You don't take a joint from a guy named Don, and there's no dogs in the car!
So you're looking for a soul train
There's a demon in you, and you're going to your safety school

Swimming in Silk ~ Chapter 3

Rated T (for now anyway)
Kagome didn't much care what strangers thought of her. It didn't matter if she had no long term goals or plans while living in the Feudal Era. She did her own thing at her own pace, and helped Kaede whenever possible. So it didn't matter when a woman inquired why she wasn't married, or when another asked why she didn't conduct herself more like a normal miko. They weren't people who were precious to her. However, between her swimming class, collecting herbs and assisting the villagers, she couldn't help but notice over the weeks that a pair of narrowed eyes were constantly glaring daggers into her back.
Kagome turned and frowned at Jaken, their gazes locking. He was not precious to her either, yet it was getting ridiculously difficult to ignore him. The little imp had done nothing to hide his displeasure at the news of his lord courting her. With the Daiyoukai away, his bulbous yellow eyes glowered intensely, clutching his staff tight and muttering under his breath.
With a sigh, Kagome set her basket of washing down. "Look Mister, do we need to have a talk? Because I feel like this-" she gestured between them, "isn't going to smooth over naturally. Come on, lay it on me."
Jaken blinked slowly, scoffing and turning his head up into the air, since he lacked a nose with which to snoot arrogantly. "A-as if I would agree to bad mouthing Lord Sesshoumaru's chosen-"
"You can speak freely. I won't tell Sesshoumaru what you say, I promise."
His mouth instantly opened and he threw his small hands up. "You are unsuitable in every way! That my Lord has decided to pursue a filthy human makes me fear he has lost his senses, or been put under an evil spell! Your manners are terrible, and even your-"
Kagome tuned him out after that, letting the insults wash over her at first, but gradually becoming more annoyed. Her hands clenched into fists and she snatched his staff from him in order to get his attention again.
"Well then," she grit out. "I guess you have a lot of opinions on the matter."
Jaken jumped for the staff, which she held just out of reach, causing him to hop up and down for it. "Wench!" He barked.
Kagome huffed, narrowing her eyes and booping him on the head with it. "I didn't ask you to speak your mind for no reason. Look," she crouched down, until they were eye level. Jaken stopped and stared at her in surprise. "The other demons at Sesshoumaru's mansion- stronghold thing...they'd all have the same opinion as you, wouldn't they?" She asks seriously.
He scoffs, crossing his small arms. "Of course! Lord Sesshoumaru's line is prestigious and should remain untainted. Every demon expects him to wed one of the silver foxes from the South Kitsune clan. Or at least a demoness of high standing. You will only dirty him."
Kagome's lips thinned and she looked at the wooden staff in her hands, feeling the demonic power radiating from within. "I'm the Shikon Miko, doesn't that count for something?"
Jaken huffs, "not much." He quiets then, glancing away. "If we said you were a Hime like Inuyasha's mother, MAYBE they might not react quite so badly."
"A-a Hime?"
"Or at least someone of nobility! Not a commoner with a short skirt- gah!" He rubbed his sore head, glaring as she booped him a little more forcefully. Kagome frowned, swallowing her pride and breathing out. She didn't care what others thought of her, but her situation wasn't like Sesshoumaru's. He had others to look after, lands to protect. Surely it mattered then, how she'd reflect on him?
Would their relationship affect land treaties or the goodwill among his allies? Now that she thought about it, Sesshoumaru hadn't brought it up once. Yet he'd left for the Western Lands just that morning without her. She quickly shook away the insidious worry that he was keeping her a secret from his fellow demons. He probably just wasn't ready to show her his home yet.
"Okay..." Kagome handed over the staff and inclined her head slightly. "C-could you..." she trailed off into a mumble.
"Hm? Speak up, girl!" He frowned, booping her head right back with a sharp 'thunk!'
"Ow! I asked you to teach me! Teach me how to act in a way that won't piss off all those other demons." She quieted, dropping her hands from her head. "I don't want his choice to reflect badly on him. I don't care what they or you say about me...but if they start thinking poorly of him because of me, I wouldn't... want that."
Jaken's large eyes blinked slowly, and he straightened, looking her over. "Hnn..."
Kagome felt like he were imitating Sesshoumaru's habit, but it was more like a high pitched, helium induced version. She bit back a smile at the thought.
He gave a sharp nod then, and waved the staff violently in front of her face. "Right then! If you have the resolve, I will strive to turn you into a slightly less wretched version of your pitiful human self. Unfortunately we can't do anything about your species- ow!"
"Uh-huh, enough of that. Let's get on with this, please?" Kagome mutters, dusting off her hands as she stood.
Jaken nodded, turning his head up and leading the way with an air of importance. Kagome hoped she hadn't just made a severe mistake.
Tea ceremonies, calligraphy, etiquette training...even posture control. When she'd asked Jaken for help, she hadn't expected the training to be quite so...snobby? And so close to home of what human nobility practised.
"Ow!" Kagome hissed, quickly snatching back her hand and clutching it to her. She glared at the toad across the low table, "I won't be able to hold the pot if you keep hitting my hand!" She growled, eyeing the staff and considering breaking the bane of her existence.
"Well stop slouching like that! Imagine you're in the presence of the distinguished, beautiful Lady Kimi. Her eyes are sharper than the finest blade- any weakness on your part will be noticed immediately! Especially such a slouch."
"If Lady Kimi cares so much about something as pedantic as Tea Ceremonies then maybe it's a lost cause that we'd get on. Whoever she is," Kagome grumps, lifting the ridiculously large pot and pouring the hot liquid into Jaken's tiny cup, trying not to relax her spine too much. She was grateful Kaede had lent them her hut to practice in, not wanting her friends to see this.
"The nerve! Lady Kimi is Lord Sesshoumaru's mother! She demands respect." He huffs, sipping from the cup and making a pained squawk when it burned his tongue.
That made Kagome pause. "His Mother..." she trailed off thoughtfully, trying to picture such a person. She'd chatted so often about her family, and spared no detail about her gentle, slightly quirky mother. Sesshoumaru had barely talked about his own.
Kagome sat back on her heels, considering. "I hope my being human doesn't bring back any bad memories of the whole- Inuyasha's mom thing."
Jaken tuts, inhaling the fragrance of the tea. "She'll probably not take you too seriously. It's likely she'll view you as passing entertainment for her son. It's not like you and Lord Sesshoumaru are mated."
Her face flamed red, and Kagome stared at her knees, setting down the pot with a 'clank.' Of all creatures, Jaken was not the one she wanted to discuss that with. "Ahaha- y-yeah. Uh...is there anything I can do to make her take me more seriously?"
"Hmm...You could fight one of Lord Sesshoumaru's admirers to the death."
Blue eyes turned flat. "No."
"Fussy girl. Fine then, you could demonstrate that you're on equal ground with my Lord by riding atop Ah-Un."
"Huh? Rin does that all the time, what's so-"
"Without his muzzle or saddle." Jaken adds sharply, scratching his chin. "You must tame Ah-Un to obey you without question. Not as a pet like Rin does, but as a subordinate like my Lord."
"How to train your dragon is going to sue me for copyright," Kagome mumbled, getting to her feet and straightening her summer clothes, smoothing her skirt. "Okay. That sounds much better than this stuff- how do I tame him? Do I give him sugar cubes or rub his belly?"
"Impudent girl!" Jaken barked, soon leading the way from the hut on the outskirts of the village. Ah-Un lazed in the sun at the edge of the wood, seeming very content. The dragon's scales gleamed in the light, and one of the two heads rested atop the other. Gentle snores escaped the beast, causing Kagome to smile at the sight. This is going to be a walk in the park.
"Wake up at once!" Jaken hopped about, poking the hide of the dragon with the staff. "Your services are needed, don't ignore me foul beast!"
When Ah-Un did not stir, Kagome dropped to one knee, reaching out and fiddling with the fastenings of the bridle and muzzle of one of the heads. A yellow eye peeled open to pin her with a startled, keen look. She smiled reassuringly.
"Hey, don't bite me, okay? I'm just taking you both out of these-" she lifted the muzzle off the jaw of the dragon, and he gave a yawn, tongue curling. It's teeth flashed. They were flat and nonthreatening, leading Kagome to realise that it was a herbivore. "So can we start over? I don't want you to treat me like Rin or Jaken okay? You don't have to protect me like Sesshoumaru ordered. I'd like to...earn your loyalty."
The free head, which Kagome now noted to be the left and therefore Un, blinked at her. She lifted the muzzle off Ah, and set it to one side along with the bridle. "I want you to treat me like Sesshoumaru. So...Jaken said I've got to 'tame' you. Is that alright?" She asked, which caused the heads to look at each other, perplexed.
Jaken scoffed as he fiddled with the strap of the saddle, loosening it. "Stupid girl, Lord Sesshoumaru wouldn't ask. He'd demand." He grumbles, tottering around the side of the beast to glare up at the heads. "Now listen here! You're going to fly and run about just like you did in the wild before our gracious Lord caught you. Understood? This girl intends to be our Lords mate."
Kagome looked into Ah's eyes as the dragon gave a listless nod, it's nature apparently quite relaxed. "So um...how do I go about 'taming' Ah-Un?"
"It's simple. You just have to get on the beasts back and grab it by the mane- while invoking the name of the house claiming it."
"Oh, so I guess mine would be Higurashi." She hums, stretching and padding around the side of Ah-Un. "That doesn't sound too hard, way easier than calligraphy."
The moment she lifted the saddle from it's back however, Ah-Un leapt up into the air, sailing high above the trees. Kagome started in surprise, a cold sweat breaking out on the back of her neck. How...am I supposed to catch it like that?
Something that sounded like a witches cackle had her looking down, dazed. Jaken was grinning up at her, and he swept his arm out. "Please do your best!" He burst into another round of laughter, causing her shoulders to tense, jaw setting.
"Right." She muttered, rolling up her sleeves. "Let's do this."
Sesshoumaru slowly glanced down at the never ending chatter by his side. Ever since he'd touched down on the border of the village, the kit had not stopped talking. He'd made no attempt to answer, but had listened enough to glean the key details of the one sided conversation: Shippo had been practising the techniques and heeded the advice he'd offered about transforming, but had only managed some basic manipulations.
"I mean whenever I transform into a human my tail always stays! Why does it do that? Do you have that problem? Is that fluffy thing on your shoulder your tail? It doesn't look attached-"
"Enough, kit." Sesshoumaru uttered, inhaling slightly. Odd...he could sense holy powers, yet did not detect any new youkai in the area. What had the miko been up to?
"Hey...isn't that your dragon?" Shippo asked, perplexed as he pointed at the dull green shape flying above the trees, tail swaying in a tell-tale playful action. Sesshoumaru rose a brow and padded forward, appearing at the edge of a clearing and lingering under the shade of the full branches of leaves.
A dark mane of hair caught his eye as Kagome leapt from some nearby bushes, shaking the greenery off her as she sprinted. She threw a rope out that he distractedly recognised as a lasso of some sort, but it fell short of Ah-Un's tail. The dragon somersaulted out of reach, and the girl fell onto the floor, rolling into a crouch and whining.
"No fair! You're not supposed to move," she huffed, causing the heads to let out a rumbling noise of amusement. One of the heads opened it's jaws, a bright blue light emanating from within it's throat. This was Kagome's only warning as she quickly jumped away, a bolt of lightning hitting the spot moments later. It scorched the grass, causing smoke to curl into the air.
Sesshoumaru noticed Kagome draw an arrow, firing at the dragon. Ah-Un dodged and swept down closer, soaring through the clearing and dancing just out of reach as Kagome threw the lasso out again.
She made a noise of frustration, pushing her hair behind her ear, but her back stiffened. Turning ever so slightly on her heel, she peeked over her shoulder at his location. Sesshoumaru was mildly curious about the unease rolling off her, as though she'd been caught doing something she shouldn't. For the most part though, he was more confused than anything.
Kagome smiled weakly and waved at him. "H-hey there, missed you. Um...me and Ah-Un were just- uh...playing! That's right. Playing," she nodded quickly as Sesshoumaru steadily approached.
He arched a regal brow, "indeed. This one did not think humans took attacks so lightly. It's something I'll have to remember."
Golden eyes bore down on her, sharp and demanding. Kagome sighed, lips pressing together. She could never lie to him for long. Before she could say anything though, a large hand hooked around the underside of her knee, and suddenly she was fighting to keep her balance. Kagome's arms waved in the air, and she quickly planted her hands on his broad shoulders. Sesshoumaru bent down slightly, lifting her knee up so that he could better inspect it.
Kagome blinked, having not noticed it was bleeding, but now awareness crept up on her, and the cut stung. Sesshoumaru's narrow gaze slid to Ah-Un, and the dragon made a soft crooning noise, much like a kicked puppy.
"Don't blame Ah-Un. This was...this was my idea. Besides it's just a little scrape, you know I can handle this."
"Hn, yet you have not explained what you are 'handling."
She smiled and patted the sturdy shoulder under her hand. "Think of it like sparring. I have to keep my skills sharp, right? Wouldn't want any demons to think less of me."
That silver brow quirked again, eyes burning. 'Who would think less of you?' they seemed to demand.
Kagome quickly looked away, gaze landing on her yellow bag. She tugged at her leg as she forced a grin. "Oh! I nearly forgot. I brought you some more puzzles."
Hot breath fanned over her exposed knee, and the cut pulsed in response. Her eyes widened as feather soft lips pressed down on the bloodied flesh, causing a blush to race over her cheeks. Kagome winced slightly when his lips became a firmer pressure, and told herself she was not painfully aware of her skirt hitching up, baring more of her thigh. Swallowing thickly and letting out a shaky breath, she started as their gazes remained locked, his becoming hooded. Her heart stumbled in her chest and quickly picked up.
"...That's not fair." She found her voice too husky for her own liking.
It was his turn to smile, lips curling up into a predatory smirk, a hint of a fang flashing at her. "Yet it is the most effective method."
Kagome breathed out as something shot down to the pit of her stomach, burning low. "I just...want to be on equal footing with you in other demons eyes. Taming Ah-Un is one way of achieving that," she tried to distract herself, finally freeing her knee from his grip and setting it down.
Sesshoumaru looked at her flatly, "it is unnecessary."
She lifted a shoulder, unable to stop the grin from tugging up her mouth, "maybe so, but anyway, I really did get you gifts. Stop interrupting my gift giving!" With a dash, she scooped up her bag and yanked the zip open excitedly riffling through it. She told herself she was not kind of giddy about the kiss, that would be dumb and silly. They'd kissed loads of times. Sesshoumaru waited patiently, but padded closer with a vague air of curiosity.
Kagome straightened and turned with a grin, showing him the puzzle. There was a thin metal circle, and two rods connected to it.
"Okay," she passed it over. "For this puzzle you've got to unhook the two rods from the circle and-"
Sesshoumaru unhooked them with a simple movement of his hand. Kagome's jaw dropped. She grit her teeth as heat rose to her cheeks. "Y-you show off!"
His eyes glittered, and he passed the gift back silently, arching a brow expectantly.
Kagome huffed and stomped to her bag again. "Stupid intelligent jerk," she grumbled, suddenly yanking a cube out of the bag and holding it up.
"This time you'll get a real challenge! That was just a warm up. This is a rubik's cube." She grinned evilly, tossing it over to him. Sesshoumaru caught it easily, glancing at it for a moment.
"...Is the aim of the puzzle to make all the sides one colour?" Was all he asked.
Kagome felt her grin slip slightly at his unaffected tone. "Yeah..."
He focused on the cube and started turning the sides. Kagome felt her expression morph from stunned, annoyed, and finally to exasperation. Sesshoumaru turned the final green side of the cube, completing it in a matter of moments.
Again those warm gold eyes rose to meet hers, and somehow Kagome was reminded of a dog waiting for a stick to be thrown. He didn't say it, but it seemed like he was...enjoying himself.
"Do all humans struggle with these simple games? Or are they meant for children?" He asks in a velvety tone, and her slightly affectionate musings were cut short. She glowered. It had not taken her two weeks to solve a rubik's cube, nope.
Kagome caught the cube he threw back to her, and gave a ticked off 'humph!'  "Just you wait mister, you won't be laughing- or uh...smiling with your eyes for long!"
It was then she realised hopelessly that she hadn't actually brought any more puzzles for him. No wait...she did have something.
Kagome rose from her crouch and smoothly approached him, holding something. Sesshoumaru blinked, but waited, lifting up his hand to accept the unique looking orb. It was black, but had a white circle, with a number 8 fixed in the middle. He could hear something like liquid inside it, and looked at Kagome for instruction this time.
She smiled at him, mischief curling around the edges of her mouth like smoke. "This is called a Magic 8 Ball. It's not a puzzle, but it can tell you your future, see-" she plucked the ball out of his hands and thought for a moment. "Magic 8 Ball, will I catch Ah-Un today?" She asked in a serious sounding tone.
Turning the ball over in her hands, she leaned in to look at a circle Sesshoumaru hadn't noticed. A blue triangle floated up into view, white letters telling her - Absolutely.
Kagome gave a victory cheer, handing it back to Sesshoumaru and waiting with bright enthusiasm. Sesshoumaru eyed the orb warily, "this one decides his own future. The fates do not govern me."
His intended gave a cry of frustration. "That's just like you to say! Just give it a chance. Please?"
When her expression turned pleading, Sesshoumaru cut his eyes to the sky, before turning to the orb. "...Magic 8 Ball, will this one be successful in his quest?" He asks lowly, causing Kagome to wonder what he was referring to. Had he not been at the Western Lands today, but actually on some new quest?
Sesshoumaru turned the ball over just like Kagome had, and they both leaned down slightly to look at the triangle. - Don't count on it.
Burning gold instantly locked on her and Kagome quickly held up her hands. "H-hey! It's not saying it's impossible! M-maybe try again?" She suggests weakly.
Lips thin, he turns back to the orb and utters out the same question, while Kagome feels something tug on her light sweater. She glances down at Shippo, who smiles at her. "That game looks cool, can I play next?"
Kagome winces. She had intended to give the ball to Shippo originally, but the proud Demon Lord had annoyed her so much she'd ended up using it. "Y-yeah, of course you can, Shippo. Just wait your turn and I'm sure Sesshoumaru will-"
A hissing noise caught her attention. The stench of something burning and acidic offended her nose. Kagome placed her hand over her nose and mouth, "what the heck- Sesshoumaru!"
The Daiyoukai glanced up at her, hand slightly lifted from his side, mercilessly pouring poison from his claws onto the Magic 8 Ball on the ground.
Kagome gave a sigh, patting Shippo's head. "I'll get you a new one," she mumbles, ushering the boy at her side away from the fumes.
A little while later, after the ball was nothing but a crumpled, melted heap of black goo on the forest floor, Sesshoumaru deigned to grace them with his attention again.
"As previously mentioned. It is unnecessary for you to be taking on the traditions of my kind," he mutters, waving a hand in the direction of the aimlessly flying Ah-Un.
Kagome shrugged. "I needed something to distract me while you were away."
Golden eyes warm, and he seemed to forgive her for the foul fortune-telling orb. "Hn...this one is here now," his voice is deep and smooth.
"I know," she drew up onto her tiptoes and pecked him on the lips, winking with a saccharine smile. "I won't be long."
Sesshoumaru hums, cooled claws brushing her hand lightly, thumb trailing over her red and slightly sore knuckles. He seemed to pause, but Kagome was more distracted by his hand. The Higurashi seal was still there, after several weeks. Curiously her stamper had gone missing. He's not been...re-applying that, has he?
Sesshoumaru slowly glances over at Shippo. The kit had been waiting patiently the entire time, albeit with his back awkwardly turned, scuffing his small paw on the ground.
Shippo starts and looks up when a shadow falls over him, Sesshoumaru's gaze fixed on the boy.
"Come, kit."
Shippo blinks in surprise, watching the Daiyoukai pad away without a backwards look. Shippo glances at Kagome, who shoots him a thumbs up, smiling encouragingly. With a spring in his step, he hurries after the flow of white hair, causing Kagome to lightly giggle. Adorable.
Though to her surprise, when she heard Jaken racing over to him with a greeting- Sesshoumaru kicked the imp, sending him soaring over the tree tops like a screeching football. Shippo seemed to ask him why he'd just abused his retainer. Sesshoumaru gave the taciturn answer of; "he knows why."
Turning back to the matter at hand slightly confused, Kagome looked up at the dragon lazing in the sky. At least the break had given her room to think, and she'd never catch Ah-Un using conventional means. She turned on her heel, getting to work under the shadows of the trees.
Ah-Un eventually tired of flying, giving a lethargic yawn. In truth, the dragon had gotten used to simply being a 'beast of burden' so was unused to such long stretches of activity. Un made a noise as he caught sight of something. Flying down towards a flat, sunbathed rock near a stream, two pairs of eyes locked on the Lettuce leaves that had been scattered atop it. The dragon settled down, ears pricked as the two heads tore into the leaves, happily munching away. It's not as if the miko could be easily forgotten, but she'd been gone for awhile, and Ah-Un felt tired. Perhaps resting for a moment would be...
The sound of something scuffing on the ground- like a shoe, had Ah raising his head. Kagome grinned, standing on the opposite side of the river, soaked to the bone to throw off her scent. The beast's yellow eye's widened as she aimed her arrow- not at them, but at a rope strung tight into the ground. Kagome fired, and the arrow cut through the rope, causing a previously concealed net to shoot down from the branches.
Ah-Un made a startled noise as the net landed atop them, and quickly thrashed and wriggled. Kagome dashed through the stream, leaping onto the dragon's back and scrambling to reach for it's mane.
"Hold still!" Kagome laughed, feeling her body jolt as the dragon bucked.
Just as she grabbed hold of the hair-like mane under the net, the dragon jumped up into the air, rolling. Kagome gasped and locked her legs around it's hide, tightening her grip as she felt herself nearly be thrown.
"I claim you in- gah!" Her chin smacked into dull green scales as Ah-Un thrashed down with a roar, landing on the ground. Tangling it's legs in the net, it's tail swung from side to side, trying to shake free.
"I claim you in the name of-" Kagome gave a sharp cry of pain as the dragon rolled heavily onto one side, trapping her leg beneath it's hide and crushing it into the ground. Gritting her teeth as tears pricked her eyes, Kagome's fingers made a fist in the mane, and she tugged, voice finding it's strength.
"I claim you in the name of house Higurashi!"
Ah-Un stilled, the two heads perking up. Kagome breathed out, "...sit up, easy now."
The dragon did as asked, straightening from it's position on it's side to lay in a more dignified manner. Kagome felt her ankle pulse, but she ignored it in favour of wrestling with the net, finally lifting it off over their heads. She tossed it aside and winced as she panted, reaching down to touch her foot- quickly retracting her hand.
Ah-Un gave a low croon, Un turning it's long neck to glance at her, as though sensing her pain. Kagome gave a weak smile, breathing out, "I-I'm okay. Don't worry about me. But uh...I should probably go home before Sesshoumaru finds out about this." She thought back to the two men who had nearly wounded her, and hoped that Sesshoumaru would see reason enough not to skin the dragon. Still, she really didn't want to worry anyone, and her time felt like the best place to be for injuries if she could help it. Pulling her sock down slightly, Kagome's lips thinned at the sight that awaited her. Black bruises circed around her ankle.
At her soft request, the dragon flew into the air, though it's movements were careful not to jostle her. Kagome smiled slightly, patting it's side. "Now I can see how you take such good care of Rin," she mutters, trying to distract herself from the pain.
Ah-Un gave another noise, and she directed it towards the Bone Eaters Well, breathing out in relief when it came into view beneath them.
Something faint teased at the edge of her awareness, like a breeze to an incoming storm. Sesshoumaru's signature youki reached out from where Edo lay, no doubt searching for her pulse of reiki. Kagome bit her lip, hard. If she reached out, he'd sense her pain in the tangled web of their energy, and would probably come looking for her.
"Hurry, Ah-Un," she bid, gripping the dragon's mane as it soared down from the sky towards the well.
The youki spread wider behind her, hot on her heels. She felt his breath on her neck. 'Why aren't you answering me?'
Kagome quickly lifted her uninjured leg, swinging it over so that she rode 'side saddle.' When the well was in position below her, she glanced at Ah-Un. "I'll be back, please tell Sesshoumaru not to worry. Just say it's an emergency."
With shift, she pushed off the dragon and plunged from the sky, her hair whipping up above her as she fell towards the well's opening. As the breeze sped past her, Kagome sensed what felt like long, clawed fingernails strain to reach her black locks. The strands slid through his fingers, and Kagome disappeared within the depths of the well with a burst of magic.
When she smelt the familiar fumes of the city, and collapsed into a heap at the bottom of the well, Kagome let out a long, agonised cry that she'd been holding in. Her ankle flared up, and Kagome grasped the rungs of the ladder, hauling herself up. Whatever it was, she needed a Doctor.
And pain killers. Lots of them.

Rurouni Kenshin Fanfiction : See you in life Beyond -Chapter 3-
Summary : For as long as he remembers, life had never been easy for him. So when carefully-buried memories are brutally awakened, the worst can happen… *A long canon post-Jinchuu story, including most of RK’s main characters, depicting how Kenshin tries to survive his inner demons, and how he and Kaoru finally became a family…*

Link for Chapter 2 : https://sesshatetsuko.tumblr.com/search/fanfiction%20chapter%202
Chapter 3: First glimmers of evil
It was one of spring's first sunny week in the new capital, after a fourth season which had proved to be labored that year. This morning, only the last sighs of winter's chills were still being felt, and the dew perched on budding leaves was sliding to the ground with the help of a slight wind.
Every inhabitant of the Kamiya dojo -including its brawler and its wanderer- was busy with its favorite task : Kenshin was doing the laundry, Kaoru was chasing her disciple through the yard, Yahiko was being chased by his assistant master, and Sanosuke aka the brawler was chewing obsolete remains of a fish carcass while waiting anxiously for mealtime.
"Phew ..."
The former Sekihotai let out a sigh, dusting his jacket with a lascivious gesture. His belly was clearly yelling famine.
"Hey Jou-chan, when ya're finished with the shoutin' match, could ya tell me if there's somethin' to eat 'round here?"
Sanosuke Sagara had the nasty habit of giving nicknames to most people who were hanging around him, as if calling someone by his first name suddenly risked causing him in an oh-so-fatal form of spontaneous combustion. So Kaoru was Jou-chan, Megumi was Kitsune, Saito had inherited of the wolf and Yahiko-CHAN was self-sufficient.
"Why you..."
Kaoru suddenly stopped her race to point a finger at the streetfigther.
"How dare you even speak of that?! Don't you know you can bring food and cook it by yourself like a grown man, instead of always complaining!? "
Her eyes spoke of hell's chasms and sulfurous vengeance. Sanosuke took a preventive step back, and Yahiko, glad that the attention was momentarily diverted from him, took this opportunity to move to a safe place – which happened to be in that case right behind Kenshin's back. He knew from experience that the situation could quickly deteriorate ...
"Maa maa do not argue," said the wanderer, pulling his hands out of the soapy water. "This one will take care of it as soon as he finishes the laundry, that he will."
Strangely enough, Himura was revealing in repetitive daily chores, as if to compensate for the chaos that had been his life so far. Except for a few intimate friends, most people who knew him back in the days of Bakumatsu did not understand that a former cold-blooded assassin, in this case a patriotic leader occupying a key position in the revolution, could be satisfied with such a routine.
A simple, normal family life... he has probably never known that before, thought Kaoru whose gaze softened at the sight of the samurai humbly hunched over the basin, sleeves rolled up, a patient smile on his face. The soapy bubbles were going up to his elbows and formed a frothy beard under the cheek where he had previously wiped his hand.
"I'm glad to know ya're the one making miso today, Kenshin," Sanosuke continued. "Haven't recovered yet from last time Jou-chan cooked and my guts literally tried to get out of my tummy!"
"What the hell..."
The young kendoka's eyes flashed instantly. Kenshin could have sworn he saw drool running down her chin.
"... I feed you for FREE and that's all you have to s-"
"Is tha' a reason for trying to poison me ?!" the accused rebuked, pointing at her too (yes, Sanosuke sometimes had suicidal tendencies).
"It's true that you aren't spoiled by nature busu ; as thin as a plate and unable to bake anything edible... "Yahiko rectified, feeling compelled to place a comment to calm the situation, always bravely sheltered behind the wanderer.
"A little respect for your master! RHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA "
Thus Kenshin -or rather his face- received a boken, two stools, five bowls, and three daikons. His defence resulted in :
"Orororororooooo ..."
"Kenshin, I'm so sorry!"
Kaoru realized too late that the red-collapsed form on the floor was innocent, and rushed to his side.
"Yare yare," said Kenshin, rubbing his head, "This one is fine, Kaoru-dono."
The samurai could have easily dodged each of her projectiles, even catching them flying and sending them back in one movement. The stool by the way, properly launched, could have made a nice whiplash injury ... But Kenshin was uncomfortable with showing his talents of former assassin, acquired in a context as painful as macabre, nor to use his incredible capacities in a harmless environment that did not require it. Note also that Kaoru was a proud master of kendo who did not deserve in the eyes of the wanderer to be humiliated or discouraged by such behavior. Above all, the mere idea that his beloved might one day be afraid of him or feel physically threatened, and therefore begin to act cautiously around him, was enough to make him feel nauseous.
As he got up, he did not fail to accidentally brush Kaoru's hand, whose face immediately went through six distinct shades of scarlet. The two lovers got up as quickly as possible, spending the next few minutes trying not to look clumsy.
A classic day, in other words.
A little too much maybe...
"...Excuse me?"
All heads turned towards the entrance gate of the dojo where a young man was standing, his black hair strictly brushed, dressed in a navy uniform trimmed with white at the ends of the sleeves. It was cut short at the level of legs, revealing sober satin shoes on which were mirroring perfectly the metal sheath of his saber.
"Can I help you?"
The mistress of the dojo approached the newcomer, who did politely salute in return.
"Agent Kyosuke, I wish to see Himura-san," he informed, "I have a letter from Officer Fujita to give him."
"If you look for him, this one is here," The wanderer instinctively took place between Kaoru and the stranger before greeting him quickly, taking the paper directly from his hands.
"So what does it say?  "asked Yahiko, who had instantly hurried to join the three adults.
"It's a letter from Saito..." Himura mumbled as he was decrypting the katakana lines. He did not answer more, focused on reading the document.
"Huh, that's all...? Don't keep the information for you!"
While the unique pupil of Kamiya Kasshin was starting the well-known dance of 'plz-tell-me-I-need-to-know' and Sanosuke was discreetly asking the postman if he did not have some money to lend him before realizing at the same time that he was instead a policeman, Kaoru was watching closely the samurai whose dorsal muscles had momentarily tensed.
"Can I see it...?" She said, gently slipping her head over his shoulder.
He crushed the paper in his hands.
"...What's the matter?"
The expression on Kenshin's face froze, then a cautious smile crawled across it.
"Saito asks this one for help on a mission."
"Well?"
"This one does not really know what it is for now. We'll see that later, that we will," he said, crouching again in front of the wet basin." Agent Kyosuke, please convey to Officer Fujita that he can count on this one's help. "
"Understood, Mr Himura. He will be delighted to hear that. "
With that, the policeman withdrew and the wanderer resumed its work, showing obvious attention on the cleaning of a hakama, returning exactly where he had stopped it before being interrupted by all this fuss. His mind, however, never really returned to the task at hand.
Seijuro Hiko completed his furoshiki in no time.
A spare outfit, his purse, equipment to sharpen his katana if necessary and of course his faithful jar of saké hanging on his belt. Nothing else was needed to cruise the roads. Of pragmatic nature, the master never cared about such insignificant material details.
Honestly, he was far from pleased to go on another trip. The mere thought of confronting this stinking, swarming and uneducated mass that the people outside his forest were was enough to give the hermit heartburn. Unlike his disciple who had wandered most of his life, Seijuro was rarely leaving his mountain. As for that terrible intuition that he'd had about him... Hiko still did not understand what that meant, but after spending several days running around in his hut trying to solve the impossible equation, he had reluctantly resolved to leave. In almost forty years his instinct had never deceived him.
In haste, the thirteenth master of Hiten Mitsurugi began his journey to Tokyo ...
In the middle of the night Kaoru was awakened by moans-like noises. Enjoying busy days, it was rare for Kamiya Kasshin's master to be a light sleeper.
What the...?
It was almost three o'clock in the morning and the neighborhood's streets were theoretically empty at this hour. As she focused on her hearing, she had the feeling that they were coming from the place where the samurai slept. Had he shouted so loudly as to pull her out of her sleep? Or was her audition playing tricks on her?
Whatever... I cannot take the risk of something happening to Kenshin.
Rather than thinking about this subject blindly, she decided to endure the coldness of the night, and stood up. The young kendoka feverishly put on her yukata before lighting a candle of wax, then discretely opened the next room's door...
Curled up on the edge of the futon, makura ejected on the floor, Kenshin was twisting around furiously in his bed. The cover was unstructured to the point of discovering his torso, riddled with scars. Although unconscious, the wanderer was aimlessly opening and closing his lips, as if talking to the wooden ground. And, to her surprise, he did not seem to be aware of her presence at all this time. She kept her ears open.
"Tomoe..."
His face was fully contracted.
... He's speaking in his sleep?
"Tomoe"
His arms were moving in all directions. He turned his head again, his features marred by the expression of intense pain. The kendo teacher was watching him with a mix of astonishment and horror.
"K-Ka ... o ... ru ..."
Grabbing his skull in his hands, he almost tore a bunch of red hair with his grip. The young woman felt her heart tighten.
Is he dreaming of our deaths...?
Her decision was made... She entered the room, knelt beside him and put a hand on his shoulder. He was cold but covered in sweat.
"Kenshin. I'm here, "she whispered," I'm fine ... "
The wanderer did not react, his eyelids still vigorously closed.
"I'm here," she continued, shaking him slightly.
"No..."
He was biting his lips so hard that a discrete trickle of blood escaped from them.
"Nooooooo ..."
He doesn't hear me ...
All the while struggling he continued to moan, contracting his muscles at a strenuous pace. Despite the repeated words and gestures of the young woman, nothing was enough to wake him up. Kaoru continued for a few minutes before giving up.
It's no use. He's gone too far ...
She didn't want to shake him too badly either. The wanderer needed rest. Reluctantly, she closed the shoji of the room and silently went back to her own bed. Falling anew into the arms of Morpheus was hard enough that night, for the young woman was saddened to see the former Ishin Shishi still fighting the endless demons of his past. He would never tell her about those in the morning, but she suspected his nightmares to be much more frequent than what they actually could see...
The samurai, for his part, continued to struggle violently against his invisible enemies. After a few minutes, he finally seized the guard of his sword, which contact was frozen.
"NO!"
Kenshin awoke abruptly. His whole body was shaking. Tears were running down his cheeks and his heart was beating wildly. Only the silence and the cold twilight of the night surrounded him, but his mind was still engulfed in the long-winded abyss of his memory. He took several minutes to realize that he was just in his room. And that all this was only a vision.
He waited until his body stopped shaking. Let the tears stop flowing. He dropped his blanket, took his katana and stood up.
Enough sleep for this night.
Kenshin entered the police officer's desk directly without being announced, causing a panic attack to the receptionist he had greeted nonetheless. The tyrannical Goro Fujita was particularly meticulous about procedures, and that included the one about never disturbing him without warning.
Mibu's wolf and former patriot were staring at each other.
"Saito."
"Himura."
"I received your letter."
"Well, that'll save me a boring speech."
"Tell this one the facts."
When they were both alone, their relationship was fundamentally different. Patience and politeness were out of place between former adversaries who had exchanged more saber blows than greetings.
"You're even more irritable than usual Battosai ..."
The former Shinsengumi silently noted the rings under the indigo eyes of the redhead. He grabbed a large blue binder resting on his desk, from which ink-filled leaves were partly coming out. And began to peel them...
"The facts, Saito," repeated the wanderer.
"You are therefore aware that the police of Tokyo, Kyoto and even Osaka are investigating a large-scale case of disappearance ..."
He took out a document, where colorless portraits were drawn.
"Children, precisely."
Himura winced.
"Hm. And what do you expect from me, exactly?"
"Nothing."
Saito took a breath from his cigarette. The wanderer was nervously touching the handle of his weapon.
"Nothing so far, I just want you to keep wide-open eyes around you."
"This one is already doing so."
"...And to report any suspicious behavior to me," the officer finished.
Himura nodded. The officer put the bundle down carefully. Even sorting out the news sent by Kyoto forces had asked him a considerable amount of time.
"When I'll have a need for you to intervene, I'll call you back," Saito concluded, turning his back to the window. "For now, I don't have any more information."
The wanderer did not need to be asked twice.
"Understood, this one does not like this kind of case either."

Singing In Quiet
HAPPY BIRTHDAY @galaxy-starheart why the fuck can i still not tag you tumblr plz
I heard you had a thing for this ship. So I hope you enjoy. :D I may or may not have been inspired by a recent Mark upload. >u>
(For those unaware, this is about Sexyplier and Brother Jeremiah. You know, Mark egos. Go check out @alcordraws for more deets. uwu)
Sexy was beautiful.
No, Sexy was more than that. Sexy was funny, smart, witty, creative, kind, generous and a plethora of other positive adjectives one could find in a thesaurus. Jeremiah could go on and on for days about the wonders of his boyfriend.
Which was precisely why he never felt good enough. Plain looking, shortly cropped hair, simple clothes and glasses. He was a younger Mark. A scrawnier Mark.
Not like Sexy, with his long, dark hair and toned muscles. He was the older Mark. The more defined Mark without the baby face and instead hosting a gorgeously chiseled jaw. No nerdy glasses. Stunning no matter what he wore, which was often very little.
No, Jeremiah just couldn't compare. He often wondered why Sexy bothered with him at all. He had to do something. Something to show Sexy he was worth it. Otherwise, Sexy might realize just how out of Jeremiah's league he was, and leave him for someone better. Someone more suave and handsome and smooth talking.
Mark had a girlfriend. Amy was a lovely person; all the egos loved her, or at least tolerated her existence. Surely he'd have a tip or two, surely he'd know how to maintain someone's interest. Jeremiah turned to Mark's videos, combing through them, searching for that thing that made Amy find him worthwhile. That kept her with him for all these years. There had to be something.
He found it in a recent video. A cover Mark had tried for the first time, with his guitar. It was rough around the edges and Mark was clearly nervous, but even so his angelic chords managed to shine through.
Music. Singing.
Of course. How could Jeremiah have forgotten? Sexy had some of the most beautiful vocals he'd ever heard. Granted, all the egos shared some degree of Mark's singing ability, and perhaps Jeremiah was a bit biased. Still, Sexy enjoyed music, and he knew he was a fantastic singer. Jeremiah couldn't compare to Sexy's beauty, or his charms, but maybe... just maybe...
He could sing.
That was how Jeremiah found himself knocking on Mark's door with an acoustic guitar in his hands, instead of his usual bible.
Mark was understandably surprised. Not only was it odd to find an ego on his doorstep, but for it to be Jeremiah, and with a guitar? He blinked and rubbed at his eyes in an effort to make sure they weren't playing tricks on him. "Jeremiah? What are you... you're not on another Mormon spewing spree through town, are you? Because, you know, that's not gonna work on me."
Jeremiah gave a sheepish grin. "No, nothing like that. I just... I wanted to ask, if maybe... you could give me some guitar lessons?"
That set Mark to blinking again. He scrubbed a hand at his eyes and face. "Wait... what? You want me to... what? Lessons? Since when did you want to play the guitar?" He paused, then squinted at Jeremiah. "...where did you even get a guitar?"
Jeremiah's grin became a bit more strained. "I bought it. Of course. And, uh... no reason really. Just... saw your video, and thought it'd be interesting to learn." He rushed forward, hoping to evade anymore questions. "So are you going to teach me or not?"
Mark frowned and scratched at the back of his head, but eventually shrugged. "I mean... yeah, okay. I can spare some time. I'm still practicing myself, anyway... so I'm not sure how great of a teacher I'll be."
Jeremiah's shoulders relaxed, and his smile smoothed out some. His death grip on the neck of his guitar loosened. "I'll take whatever you can give me."
Thus the lessons began. Jeremiah hadn't taken the time to learn many things in his existence, but when it came to Sexy, his determination was stoked into a roaring blaze. He sat through session after session with Mark, almost daily, going over chords and bars and rhythms. It wasn't long at all before his fingers bled, and he came home to the treehouse covered with bandaids.
"What happened to your hands?" Sexy would ask, frowning, gently turning over the digits in his own to examine the bandaids.
Jeremiah hated lying to Sexy, but he needed this to be a surprise. He always came up with some excuse or other to satisfy his boyfriend's concern.
Oh, I was helping Bill with the garden.
I got into a scuffle with Opinion Minion again.
Chef needed help in the kitchen, you know I'm not the best with a knife....
Sexy never seemed to fully believe Jeremiah, but he accepted every excuse. He would scatter kisses across Jeremiah's fingers, and then move onto his face; loving, tender, slow. Sexy cared about him so deeply. It was precisely the reason he pressed on, working through the pain and frustration and road blocks.
"Have you been practicing on your own at all?" Mark asked one day.
Jeremiah winced. "I can't. Se... I mean, I have no privacy for it. I don't want the others judging me." He swallowed. Jeremiah still hadn't confessed his reasons to Mark.
Mark had pursed his lips into a frown. Much as he wanted to reassure Jeremiah, he understood that anxiety all too well. He wracked his brain, knowing solo practice was important to getting better. "What if... I introduced you to someone? I think he'd have just the solution."
Jeremiah was wary, but he was also desperate. His anniversary with Sexy was coming up, and he needed this song to be perfect. So he accepted Mark's offer, though he found himself quickly regretting it when he was led to the doors of Egos, Inc. itself. He stayed close to Mark, having been inside the building before but never without Sexy at his side. Somehow, his boyfriend always gave him a confidence boost. It certainly didn't help Mark was leading him to a part of the building he'd never been to before. Usually, they just borrowed the more extensive kitchen space.
Yet Mark took him past that area and deeper into the halls. He knocked on a door, and it was opened by one of the androids- not the truly terrifying ones, but the odd one. The misfit: Bingiplier. He'd greeted Mark enthusiastically, attempting to do the same with Jeremiah.
Jeremiah had managed a shaky greeting in response. It was enough, and they were invited into what appeared to be a studio. Mark pointed out the ego they were actually here to see- Mark Bop. Of course. How could Jeremiah be so dull? Even if he wasn't familiar with all of the main egos, everyone knew about the musical one. Why didn't he think of coming to Mark Bop for help before?
The ego was more shy and subdued than Jeremiah expected. It was a welcome temperament, though, in the wake of his rattled nerves. He resisted the urge to pilfer some of the expensive equipment, and instead thanked Mark Bop profusely when he conceded to lending Jeremiah one of his recording booths. Finally, he would have a private place to practice. No worries about Sexy or one of the other egos catching him. No fear of his surprise being spoiled too early.
He really owed Mark for this. Maybe he'd return that blue flannel he'd snatched a while back.
Maybe.
With the solo practices, Jeremiah was able to begin piecing together his song. Mark's guidance was paramount, and even Mark Bop offered up a suggestion or two whenever he happened to be around. It was coming together, slowly but surely, and Sexy was none the wiser. He only hoped his growing absences from the treehouse weren't giving his boyfriend the wrong impression.
When the day came, Jeremiah texted Sexy to meet him in his bedroom. In reality, he was waiting outside, standing in the small clearing beneath the treehouse with his guitar at the ready. He could clearly see into his own bedroom window from his position, and once he spied Sexy's silhouette he fired off another text.
Look outside.
It took a few moments, but eventually the window was opened to reveal the surprised, stunning face of Sexy staring down at him. He pressed his hands to the windowsill and leaned outside. "Jerry? What're you doing down there? Is that... is that a guitar?"
Jeremiah tried to grin, but his lips trembled too much. His fingers were shaking as well where they rested on the strings. Sexy was spectacular, leaning out the window in his adorable pink crop top with his dark hair flawlessly framing his face; breathtaking. It took him several tries to find his voice. "Sexy. We've been together for... for a year now, and... I just wanted to do something for you. To... to show you just how much I love you. So... listen, okay? This is for you."
Sexy had his hands pressed over his mouth, brown eyes wide with a mixture of disbelief and adoration. Jeremiah took it as a sign he could continue, and drew a deep breath.
He messed up the first chord. Resisting the urge to curse under his breath, he bit at his lip and tried again. The notes were practically muscle memory by now, but his anxiety was making his palms sweaty; his fingers slipping. Jeremiah furrowed his brow and muscled through it, looping the intro of the song once over when his voice failed to work.
But the words couldn't hide forever, and soon they were spilling out. "When your legs don't work like they used to before... and I can't sweep you off of your feet...."
Maybe it was a cheap move, picking the same song as Mark. He'd just been inspired. The song was so romantic, and he couldn't hear it without thinking of Sexy and himself. It was perfect. "Take me into your loving arms. Kiss me under the light of a thousand stars. Place your hand on my beating heart."
His version was less so, but... Sexy was still listening. He was still watching with rapt attention, so Jeremiah would keep playing, keep singing. His anxiety never dissipated, but his confidence grew the deeper into his performance he got. His voice evened out and his grip on the guitar became more sure, the notes flowing into a steadied rhythm. At some point, he'd closed his eyes, just allowing himself to feel the music and sing from the heart.
That's what Sexy was to him. His heart. This song could never convey it enough, could never compare, but it was something. Finally, he had something. "Thinking out loud... baby, we found love right where we are...."
The final chords of the song trailed off and Jeremiah drew another deep breath. His eyes were still closed as he tried to compose himself, tried not to think the worst of the ensuing silence. Had Sexy left? Did he hate it? Did he think Jeremiah's efforts were stupid? Not enough? What if he-
The sound of footsteps rushing towards him had Jeremiah's eyes flying open, just in time for him to receive an armful of crying Sexy. Stunned, he held his boyfriend close, the guitar awkwardly hanging off his shoulder to the side. Sexy was burying his face into Jeremiah's neck, hiccuping and sobbing, pressing wet little kisses there while he clung to Jeremiah like a drowning man. Jeremiah's heart hammered away in his chest. "Sexy...?"
"I love you so much."
Color flooded Jeremiah's cheeks. He shrugged his guitar around to his back so he could hold Sexy closer, better. Gently, one of his hands rubbed down the elegant curve of Sexy's back. The other carded fingers through his soft, black hair. His own lips trembled again while his heart performed backflips. "I... love you too, Sexy. So much. You mean... the world to me, and... thank you. For staying with me...." His voice cracked, and he gave a little sniffle.
Sexy laughed, raw and wet and incredulous, and pulled his face out from Jeremiah's neck. It was red and puffy from his tears, his nose running, bangs sticking to his forehead and in Jeremiah's opinion he was still the most gorgeous thing he'd ever seen. "Of course I'm with you, you big dumb idiot! I wouldn't want anyone else- I don't want anyone else. I want you. It's always been you... it will always be you...."
Jeremiah let out a soft sob of his own, brown eyes misting over with the threat of tears. He choked a little on his words, "I love you so much. I don't..." He hiccuped, and Sexy pressed a finger to his lips.
"You don't have to do anything else but kiss me, damn it." Sexy was smiling. He removed his finger in favor of cupping Jeremiah's face in his hands, thumbs stroking along his flushed cheek bones. "Kiss me."
Jeremiah could do nothing but oblige.

(AO3 link posted in comments below)
“SALLY!!!” Angie greets in a cheerfully aggressive way, flying out from nowhere and knocking Salvatore to the ground as he heaves his way up the path toward the Beneviento estate.
“G-good evening… A-Angie… is D-Donna… home? I-I’d like to… t-to speak w-with her” Salvatore asks, somehow not even surprised by the fact that he was currently looking up at the darkening sky as the spastic porcelain doll his sister communicated through frantically flew in circles around him, like a small child who’d been given too much candy all at once.
“Hahaha, ya, she’s here. We saw you coming up the hill, so she should be waiting for you inside” Angie answers, giggling to herself as she slowly levitates up into the air, staring at Salvatore all the while. “This better be worth our time, Sally-boy, or you’ll owe us a huge favor, you got it?” The matrimonially dressed doll croons before frantically taking off toward the house without waiting to see if Salvatore was following, laughing maniacally all the while.
“I-I’ll k-keep that in m-mind…” Salvatore mumbles under his breath, flipping himself upright from the prone position in which he’d landed on his back. Picking himself off the ground, Salvatore took a deep breath, hoping that Donna was in a good enough mood to give him what he needed, before finally following after Angie.
“DONNA! SALLY’S COME FOR A VISIT. I DON’T KNOW WHY, THOUGH!” is what Salvatore hears Angie scream just as he hobbles through the front door of the estate, the Beneviento home looking just as dark and empty, save for all the doll’s of course, as the last time he was here.
“Tores,” Donna greets simply, appearing out of nowhere behind the hooded man, much like her doll had done just moments earlier.
“D-Donna! Y-you’re looking w-well” Salvatore greets back, fiddling nervously in front of the younger woman, his inability to read her expression due to the presence of her black veil causing the deformed man to sweat anxiously, despite both Angie and Donna’s use of their familiar nicknames for him. “How a-are you d-doing? H-have you m-met… your g-gift yet?”
“I have” the veiled woman answers simply, after a long moment of silence, turning her gaze to the other room, where some ornate chairs, a coffee table, and a couch sit in close proximity to one another, creating a delightfully cozy area to host party guests, if such things were to ever actually grace a house such as the Beneviento’s. Currently the only thing the sitting area hosted was a tall, grim looking man, dressed entirely in black, with a pale, gaunt face, and long, unkempt black hair that fell gracefully upon his sleeping face.
“All he’s done since he got here a few hours ago is sleep and stare off into space” Angie whispers quietly to Salvatore. “Donna says he’s just resting and adjusting to being out of the pod for an extended period of time, but I'm starting to think he might just be brain dead.”
“I take it you have met your gift as well?” Donna says suddenly, regaining Salvatore’s attention just as she motions for the deformed man to follow her out of the room and away from the still-sleeping man in the other room.
“U-uuuuuh… y-yes… yes I’ve m-met mine… th-that’s… actually th-the reason w-why I’m… h-here…” Salvatore stutters nervously, as he hobbles behind the younger woman, struggling to keep up as Donna effortlessly floats through the confusing maze of the Beneviento estate.
“Hahaha, keep up, ugly, or I’ll make you test one of my puzzles before entertaining your little request” Angie giggles sadistically as she flies past Salvatore’s shoulder and zooms down the hallway to the left. Hoping that Donna wasn’t purposefully trying to trick him so that Angie could make good on her threat, Salvatore books it down the hall, breathing a sigh of relief when he catches up with Donna just as the funeral clad woman enters her personal quarters.
“I’m sorry for the sudden change in location, but I wanted to give your concerns my full attention without fear of waking Antxon from his slumber” Donna apologized once Salvatore had closed the door to her workshop behind him, removing her veil from her head and placing the ornate head covering on its designated stand, revealing the large, veiny tumors that grew from her right eye to the deformed man. Smiling kindly at Salvatore as the deformed man removes his hood.
“N-no worries” Salvatore assures, lowering his hood to reveal the array of bulbous growths that grew along the front and back of his neck. “I’m j-just glad you… h-have s-some time to h-help me.”
“Of course, it's not a problem at all, Sal. At least, not after the incredible favor you did for me, it isn’t. I didn’t know what I was going to do when that huge storm we had last year broke parts of the waterfall off and flooded the house. I thought I was about to lose everything all over again before you came in and diverted the water flow back down the opposite side of the cliff. The fact that it’s a little late in the evening means nothing if I can repay you for saving what remains of my home” Donna says kindly, a beautiful smile spreading across her face.
Salvatore giggled and looked away in embarrassment, unused to being praised so heavily, even by Donna, the sweetest and calmest of Salvatore’s younger siblings. But regardless of that fact, yes, it’s true, Salvatore is, in fact, the reason why the Beneviento estate still stands proudly, if a bit dilapidated, on the cliff it had been built upon however many centuries ago by Donna’s ancestors. After a large summer storm knocked out several of the rocks that had previously ensured the waterfall pointed parallel to the house, the flow of water was forced to change due to the presence of a new hole through which water could, and did, flow heavily through.
Donna was practically paralyzed from her hysterical sobbing when Salvatore finally arrived with a potential solution to the slow but agonizing destruction of her childhood home. Angie was all but convulsing madly on the ground just a few feet away, a sickeningly humorous display of the debilitating fear and madness that was flying around inside Donna’s brain at that moment. Shockingly, Salvatore’s potential solution, to open up a new, larger hole on the opposite side of the cliff that would hopefully divert the flow of water away from the Beneviento house, ended up being exactly what was needed to solve the problem.
A couple of powerful swings of the tail of his much larger, much stronger fully-mutated form had the rock on the other side of the cliff falling away like small pebbles, allowing the river water to burst forth from the brand new opening. The hole through which water had been escaping onto Donna’s property slowly drained itself of water before stopping altogether, the waterfall having been successfully diverted to the opposite side of the cliff side, saving the Beneviento home from previously certain destruction.
If it weren’t for how understandably distressed and thankful Donna had been due to the results of the situation, Salvatore would have been just a bit annoyed by how frantically she sobbed while insisting upon paying the deformed man back for his kind services. Salvatore didn’t really see the need. He was more than happy to help Donna out with her problem, but he didn’t do it with the intention of getting a favor or payment out of the younger woman. Sure, it would be nice if, because Salvatore did something nice for Donna out of the kindness of his heart, Donna was willing to extend the same kindness to him when he called out for assistance, but that had never been his intention.
He wasn’t Karl, after all.
Regardless, Donna had been insistent that Salvatore may call upon her for whatever he may need in the future, and it would appear as though today was the day that he would be able to take advantage of Donna’s kind offer.
“I-It was n-nothing… I a-assure you… I was… h-happy to do it f-for you… b-but since… y-you offered to d-do something… for m-me… in return f-for what I did… I-I figured I’d… make u-use… of i-it…” Salvatore trails off, hoping he wasn’t imposing too much upon his sister. He knows she said he could ask anything of her, but even someone as talented and powerful as Donna had her limits. The deformed man can only hope that Donna will be able to assist him this time just like she has many times before.
“Of course. What is it that I can do for you? If you’re looking for manual labor of some kind, I’d certainly be willing to lend you as much of a hand as possible, but unfortunately my true skills lie in only a few areas, so I apologize if I prove to not be much help in the long run” Donna says bluntly, though her unintentionally self-deprecating speech is quickly shut down by Salvatore.
“N-no no, not a-at all… I’m w-well aware of… w-where your s-skills lie… and th-that’s why… I’ve c-come to you f-for this” Salvatore explains hurriedly. “I-I need… a dress.”
“A dress?” Donna asks, the rise of her left eyebrow revealing just how much Salvatore’s request had shocked her.
“Y-yes” Salvatore nods his head. “A d-dress… f-for a very beautiful y-young… young woman…” the deformed man says, trailing off as his cheeks begin to burn from outright embarrassment of his own words. How much more desperate and pathetic could he possibly sound?
Donna merely chuckled at the older man’s sudden bashful behavior. “Oh? So you’d like a dress commissioned for your gift would you? Well, isn’t that sweet.”
Salvatore turns away as his whole body burns with shameful embarrassment. Now, it wasn’t as though the deformed man wasn’t comfortable around Donna to talk about these sorts of things, but Salvatore wasn’t nearly as close with Donna as he was with Karl, so a part of the mutant man couldn’t help but wither slightly as the black clad woman’s soft laughs slowly came to a stop.
“Forgive my rudeness, I don’t mean to make you feel bad by laughing at you. I actually think your idea to give your gift a gift of her own is quite smart and charming. Are you looking to woo your gift, Tores?” Donna teases goodnaturedly, using her nickname for him to boot, as she walks over to a nearby drawer and begins pulling out fabrics of various colors and materials, gently placing them all out on the table in the middle of the room for Salvatore to see.
“I-I don’t k-know about… th-that… I th-think I’ll just be h-happy if…i-if we can at l-least… be f-friends.”
“But you would like more?” Donna asks knowingly, smoothing the fabrics out.
Salvatore let's his gaze fall to the floor as he fiddles with the leather bracelet on his left wrist, grimacing as selfishly filthy and domestic thoughts begin to fill the deformed man’s mind, twisted visions of tender embraces, brutal love making, and soft, loving kisses shared in a bed filled with so many children; his children; their children, scattered here, there, and everywhere across the warmth and safety of their nest, filling in every space not currently occupied by either of their parents. Surrounded inside and out by the love of the family he’d never allowed himself to dream of before. Not that Salvatore's sick and disgusting mind could ever come up with an image as pure and wholesome as this one on its own.
“I-I would… I’d l-like… a g-great deal m-more… th-than I’ll p-probably ever b-be worth… b-but I can’t h-help it… she’s just s-so… so… sh-she’s everything I’ve ever w-wanted in life… and s-still someh-how s-so much more… I h-haven’t been able to… t-to stop th-thinking about h-her… since I f-first laid eyes u-upon her… I-I want to g-give her… e-everything… I w-want to be h-her everything… i d-dont know… if it’ll e-ever work… b-but a p-part of me can’t help b-but… can’t help but w-want to try… just t-to see if m-maybe… maybe… i-it could?” Salvatore admits somberly after a few moments of silence.
Donna hums in understanding, remaining silent as she continues to gather up her supplies. After a few more moments of searching, the younger woman finally sits at the large sewing table, turning to Salvatore as she picks up a thick and luxurious looking silk material, dyed the color of bright red blood, a small smile on her face. “Well, if you’re planning on winning your gift’s affections through the use of gifts, then we’d better make sure we make her a gift worth falling in love over, yes?”
Salvatore gasps in excitement as he realizes what Donna’s words really mean. She’ll help him make a dress that he can gift to Nadine!
“O-oh thank you… th-thank you, thank y-you, thank you thank you thank you!” Salvatore praises, grabbing Donna’s hand and shaking it excitedly between them.
Donna chuckles in amused fondness. “But of course! Anything for an older brother as reliable and helpful as you! Now, the actual construction of this dress will, unfortunately, take some time, if you are looking for something fancy and luxurious, that is. There’s also the issue of measurements, as the dress will need to be custom fit to your gift’s unique frame if you want it to look the way it's supposed to. However, if you’re in a rush and would like something to give her today, I could throw something suitable together for just the time being. It won’t be the final version of course, but she'll at least have something to wear while I work on the real dress in secret. Does that sound like an agreeable plan, Tores?” Donna asks, folding her hands in front of her, making her look very professional and serious.
Salvatore nods his head. “Yes, th-that’ll be j-just fine! I’ll l-leave the d-design of the d-dress… u-up to you, D-Donna… I t-trust your e-expertise… h-however if y-you do h-have… something… th-that I could g-give Nadine t-today… then th-that would be a-amazing… as well…”
“Nadine” Donna repeats slowly, smiling again. “What a pretty name that is? Which one is she?”
“Th-the blue one… w-with white… f-freckles… an-and fins.”
“Ah yes, I remember now. Mother Miranda spoke quite poorly of that particular subject. Said she was an absolute menace, if I recall. What do you think of her?” The black clad woman asks, curiously.
Salvatore shrugs his shoulders. “I-I’ve not m-met her officially… yet… I g-got nervous an-and hid… under some c-crates… when she f-first woke up… b-but she seems… surprisingly… m-mild mannered and calm… as f-far as I c-can… as far as I can t-tell.”
“I see” Donna says, “well that sounds interesting. Though… why were you hiding under crates, again?”
“... I-I don’t w-want to talk about i-it” Salvatore mutters softly, the embarrassed heat returning when Donna chuckles at his behavior.
“Oh, don’t worry, Tores, you know I’d never judge you about something like this. Were you afraid she’d hate you when she saw you? Is that why you hid?”
Oh, Donna, sweet, kind, wonderful, omnipotently all-knowing Donna. How Salvatore hated her ability to read him like yesterday’s newspaper.
“M… maybe…” Salvatore hesitantly admits, before a thought crossed his mind.
“W-were… were you… w-wearing your veil… f-for the same r-reason… Donna?” Salvatore asks, realization causing his eyes to grow wide as he looked up at the younger woman, a soft chuckle escaping her in response.
“I suppose you could say that” Donna breathes. “I know my… mutation, isn’t nearly as bad or even life altering as yours were, but… I simply can’t handle the looks of pity, disgust, and fear that the villagers leveled me with whenever I dared leave my home. Not like you can at least.”
“I-I don’t know… i-if I’d call what I-I do… ‘handling’... I-I try to hide m-myself away… j-just as much as y-you do, Donna” Salvatore interjects, taking a step forward and reaching out to take the younger woman’s hand in his own, a comforting gesture is what Salvatore hopes it comes across as.
“I suppose… but at least you feel a sense of comfort and confidence whenever you’ve lured someone into your reservoir. You have the home advantage and are capable of utilizing and manipulating your surroundings to best fit your needs. Whenever someone enters my home however… well, let's just say the comfort of a home field advantage isn’t enough to soothe my mind of the constant worries and anxieties that come with having a total stranger in my home.”
Ah, so that’s what this was about. Salvatore was more than aware of Donna’s uneasy and traumatic upbringing, as well as how much more damage her cadou mutation did to her as well, both physically and mentally. Unlike Karl however, Donna at least had the distinct advantage of being an adult when her mutations took place, but this didn’t really end up doing very much for her in the end, only shoving the already reclusive young woman even further into her grief stricken shell.
It had taken Salvatore no shortage of effort and time to slowly but surely work his way past the hard exterior of Donna’s shell, slowly convincing her to open up until she was comfortable enough around him to both hold a conversation for longer than 5 minutes, as well as take her veil off in his presence, a gesture that Salvatore honored by removing the hood of his cloak as well. Since warming up to him however, Donna has proved to be a valuable, if difficult to get a hold of, figure in Salvatore’s life, and the deformed man was proud to call such a talented and pleasant young woman his younger sister. Even Donna herself would admit to greatly enjoying the times when the deformed man would go out of his way to pay her a visit, if only to sob about the latest romance film he’d watched while she worked on her personal projects.
In the years that they’ve had to get to know each other, Salvatore is proud to say that he’s managed to learn quite a few more personal things about Donna, and one of those things happens to be the fact that Donna hates nothing more in this entire world than random strangers in her house.
“I-Is this… about h-him?” Salvatore asks, knowing Donna knew exactly who he was talking about, despite having turned her head away so the unhooded man couldn’t read her expression.
A gentle squeeze of the hand has Donna talking. “I just… don’t know what to do with him. Mother Miranda gave us these gifts but didn’t tell us what we were supposed to use them for, other than “whatever we want”. But what if I never wanted a gift in the first place? What if I don’t want to have to tiptoe around my own damn home just so that some poor sap doesn’t have the daylights scared out of him the second he sees me?” Donna laments, sighing heavily in frustration and fear. “From what I’ve hear, your gift sounds like an absolute madwoman, so at least you’ll have something interesting to look at even if she rejects you. All mine had done all day is sleep and look like he left his brain behind in the pod. What on earth am I supposed to do with a brain dead body? I might as well give him to Heisenberg as an early birthday present.”
“W-well… I don’t k-know if I have a-any better of a “ch-chance” with my g-gift as a-anyone else… b-but I do th-think that… if you w-want to have a g-good relationship… o-of some k-kind… with y-your gift… then… m-maybe you need… to be th-the one to r-reach out… reach out an-and try and start it… y-yourself… sh-show him th-that you mean… n-no harm… and that you j-just want companionship and a-acceptance… an-and maybe… maybe if h-he wants… the s-same thing… you can… you can m-make something… out of th-that… m-make things w-work out best f-for the both of y-you… i-in whatever w-way works b-best… for the b-both of you… not a-anyone else” Salvatore suggests, feeling like he’s talking entirely out of his ass at the moment, but hoping that Donna, as smart as she was, would be able to get at least something out of his meaningless rambling.
“Hmmm… make things work for us in whatever way works out best for us, huh?” The younger woman asks, though seemingly more to herself than anyone else. “You know what… I think I might just give that a try. Thank you, Tores, you’re always such a wealth of knowledge and wisdom!”
“W-well… I c-certainly do my b-best” Salvatore blushes, rubbing the side of his neck happily as Donna giggles and turns her attention back to the fabrics.
“Alright, well, with that emotional conundrum handled, why don’t we finish our conversation about the dress you’d like to eventually give to your gift. I have a few pieces already made lying around that I'm sure will fit her, I’ll just need to shorten them a tad bit, so I'm not as concerned about what you’ll be giving her today as I am about getting an idea of what you’re looking for in the dress you plan on giving to her in the future” Donna says, breaking back into her serious business mode.
With a nod of his head, Salvatore begins describing to Donna the vision he has in his head, both for the dress as well as how it will fit on Nadine’s uniquely structured body.
“Hmmm, that definitely does sound like a challenge” Donna admits once Salvatore has concluded his explanation, “however, I don’t think it will be so difficult that I won’t be able to do it within the next few weeks.”
“S-so, you’ll d-do it?” Salvatore asks, hopefully.
“Yes, I’ve already said that I’d be more than willing to aid you in whatever you needed, but the fact that you’ve come to me with a problem I can solve with my needle and threat just makes me excited to start working. I hope its to your liking once its finally finished!”
“Oh, t-trust me, Donna... I k-know both N-Nadine and I… will be v-very pleased… with th-this dress… once i-its finally f-finished,” Salvatore assures as Donna leads him out the front door of the Beneviento estate, their conversation having concluded and Salvatore still in need of something to go along with the gorgeously pristine white satin nightgown that Donna had given him to gift Nadine until her real dress was ready.
“Well, I certainly hope so,” Donna says kindly. “I’ll do my very best on it, you can rest assured about that, at least. Anyways, I won’t keep you much longer, since you still have quite the night ahead of you it seems. At least, if you’re planning on heading up to see her too, you will.”
Heaving a heavy sigh, Salvatore nods his head solemnly. “Y-yes… I am s-still planning on g-going up to see… Alcina… just to see i-if she has… anything else… I c-could possibly g-give Nadine.”
“Whatever it is, you’ll have to pry it from her like an old rotting tooth, I imagine” Donna comments quietly.
“I-Im afraid you m-might be… b-be right about th-that one” Salvatore laments, though the thought of surprising Nadine with an even more incredible gift than just the satin nightgown filled him with a sudden inexplicable feeling of determination, as though nothing in the world could stop him so long as he had his beautiful Nadine to return to.
“B-but anyways… I w-wont take up… any more of y-your time… th-thank you, Donna… you h-have no idea… how m-much this means to m-me” Salvatore thanks as he begins heading back down the hill.
“You’re welcome, Tores. And who knows, perhaps one day… if things with both our gifts turn out well… we could all get together and share a meal… all of us together?” The black clad woman asks, her hope and apprehension for what the future may hold plain as day in her voice.
Salvatore merely smiles as the younger woman. “I w-would enjoy that g-greatly, Donna… an-and Nadine would a-as well, I think… let’s t-try and… and set s-something up… for after w-we’ve all been g-given some time… to a-adjust to our n-new living s-situations?”
“I think that sounds wonderful, Tores. Have a safe journey, and do let me know if Alcina could please return my large mannequin. Those things are a pain to make myself and yet she never remembers to send them back after she commissions a new dress.”
“Don’t w-worry, Donna” Salvatore chuckles as he hobbles away, beginning to make the rest of the journey toward Castle Dimitrescu along the still-snowy village paths, “I’ll be s-sure to let her k-know!”
“BYE, SALLY! SEE YOU NEXT TIME!” Angie all but screeches as she flies past Donna and crashes into something inside. Salvatore chuckles when he hears the audible sigh from Donna, knowing that she’s about to have her hands more than full, even without her gift factored into the equation.
Oh well... at least it would make for a funny story to hear about later!
So long as Donna survived the whole ordeal, that is.

With that being said if the third party have already admitted liability will I still be compensated for my damage to my vehicle and injuries? The reason why they need to update my policy is because when I did the quote online I inputted the amount of cars in the household as 1 instead of 3 (my error) but upon going back to their website to retry the quote with 1 car vs 3 cars in the household, it turns out cheaper to have 3 cars instead of the one so i cant understand why I would need to pay more to get something cheaper.

First time car insurance?
I passed my driving test on the 6th of December 2011 and got a car yesterday. It is a 1.0 litre peugeot 107 56 plate and I'm 22. Wondering where the cheapest place to go for car insurance would be or the cheapest way to do it? I've heard some people go on their Mum's, but you shouldn't do that as it's illegal to say they are the main driver when you are (not sure how this would be proved). I've looked on price comparison sites but they are all still so expensive and I still feel I can get a better quote. The best one has been from an independent insurer called Ingenie at 1300, so I know I can get cheaper on sites that aren't on price comparison ones, if that makes sense! The thing is there's so many was just wondering if anyone knew the cheapest?? Getting bored of typing my details in over and over :) Thankyou x""

17 Year old insurance rates?
On average, how much would insurance be for a 17 year old male with a 2001 BMW 740li? I have an okay job but I don't wan't to spend over 5k on insurance a year, as that would eat almost a fifth of my salary. Would insurance be cheaper on a coupe such as a 1991 Nissan 240sx? Also, do you have to pay a higher rate if your car is turbocharged? Will they insure you if your pushing over around 500 horsepower? If I buy a 240sx I'm going to do an engine swap for sure, so I want to know if it would be better to wait. Any answer is a good answer, so thanks for anything!""

Insurance costs on a Range Rover?
I'm only 14 right now but since I am a massive car fan I have already come up with a selection of cars. Most definetly euuropean though. My idea was the 3.5 litre that Land Rover had in the Range Rooney (Top Gear reference) I hear insurace is higher for SUV's and convertibles. I think a Rage Rover could be good for practicality, and even though they are slightly unreliable I was thinking put in a new engine. But I also had ideas for a used Mercedes SL hardtop (if they had any). I also like the VW beetle (original). I would think my budget would likely be $4000-5000. I just remembered I also wanted a 1997-99 Jaguar XJ long wheeelbase. So if u can please make a suggestion for a European car with 6 cylinders or more preferebly British or German and tryy adding what insurance might be pllease. Thank you.""

How can I prevent this girl from completely taking advantage of my insurance company?
A few nights ago I accidentally brushed the side of my neighbor's car with my front bumper (cause she was parked like an idiot as usual). I'm taking full responsibility of it cause it's my fault and I have no problem with that. Initially I was going to pay for the scrape to be compounded out and whatever else was wrong as a result of me hitting it. However, when I spoke to her, she started pointing out a ridiculous amount of things: there's a scratch in addition to the scrape (ok, sure), she says I cracked her light (maybe I did, it's possible) but she's also saying that I caused her tire to pop out and that there's tread missing from it (which makes absolutely no sense because I didn't hit the tire or rim or wheel well at all). Basically, she expects a whole new paint job and a set of tires which is ridiculous for the small amount of damage that was done. I want to make sure she isn't trying to take advantage of my insurance company and cause my rates to skyrocket as a result. The car is a complete piece of sh*t and she doesn't take care of it at all - the paint's dull, the rims are rusted - and I think she's trying to fix these things by making it like they were a result of me hitting her. I have no problem at all taking responsibility for the damage I did, but I do have a problem with her making things up and trying to fix other issues through my insurance company. The last claims representative I spoke with told me that I would not be contacted by the adjuster at all since there is no damage to my car. Since she's going to be talking with the adjuster and I won't, I'm afraid she's going to exaggerate the amount of damage. Should I call my insurance company and tell them this? Will they care? What can I do?""

Good place to buy car insurance for an 18 year old?
I'm 18 and just recently passed my driving test. Problem is, my Dad wants to put me down as a second driver on his car but it's a BMW sport with a 2L engine. The cheapest quote I could find is 4,500 annually, which my Dad is not prepared to pay of course. Some companies were even asking for 40,000 which is just a joke! I have been driving this car for over a year and now that I finally have my license, I'm pretty annoyed that I'm not able to drive the car that's just sitting outside. Anyone know any other routes I could take? Weekly car insurance? Monthly? Ideally I'd like to have a quotes of less than 1600 annually, but now it seems unlikely. Buying another car is not an option as I'm going to Uni in a couple of months and will not be needing it anymore. Any suggestions would be helpful, thanks.""
