Broken Mugs — Miguel O'Hara
🕸summery: miguel is tottally not jealous that all your attention is on the new intern
🕸warnings: mention of injury/blood. reader is fem.
🕸a.n: this was actually a req from my other blog @spider999sposts lol. hope anon likes it!
Tumblr media
He shouldn't feel this way.
He shouldn't feel his chest tighten. He shouldn't  feel his mind clouding. His claws shouldn't be digging this hard into his palm, leaving small scars on his skin. He shouldn't be staring at you this much either.
A yellow glow popped by his shoulder, hiding from sight of the other scientists. Under regular circumstances, he'd shoo her away before anyone could see her, but he was too fixated on keeping his eyes on you...and him. Why on earth would you even glance twice at his direction was his question. He'd been hired for two weeks now but Miguel never saw him getting any work down. He was just...around you. All the time. Making you laugh, touching your arm or shoulder here and there, glancing at your lips. You were as bright as ever, too nice, too friendly, but you were like that with everyone, that new intern shouldn't feel at all special.
"Boss, are you okay? Your blood pressure is going up." Miguel's claws dug deeper into his skin, while his other hand tightened around his coffee mug. The intern –whom he never really bothered to learn the name of– was showing you something under the microscope, his hand resting on your back as you leaned to look. You were laughing at some stupid thing he'd said.
"¿Qué está diciendo que la está haciendo reír tanto?" He rasped out, the burning coffee making its way down his throat. LYLA peeked from behind Miguel's ear, glancing at you. A smile crept on her face. "Oh, I get it. You're jealous."
Miguel's eyes flashed crimson, then returned to their normal brown. "I'm not jealous. That is a childish feeling, LYLA." He whispered. "I think it's a pretty grown feeling, actually." LYLA giggled. Miguel took another sip of his coffee, almost spitting all out when he saw him tuck a hair behind your ear while you spoke to him. You nervously laughed, taking a step back, but continued to talk. "He's distracting her from work." Miguel explained. He had no right to be jealous. He was not your boyfriend, nor were you dating. Sure, there were some glances here and there, occasional hand brushing, the fact that you always kept him company during lunch when everyone was too scared to sit with him, always brought him a snack when you were out to grab yourself one, but there was nothing exclusive. "She should be finishing up her research, for that promotion she wants so bad, he's a bad influence."
[What is he saying that is making her laugh so much?]
"Is he? I think he's helping her. They are at her station, you know? And that sample he showed her, she took notes after seeing it." Miguel scoffed, usually he liked being faced with the facts, but right now wasn't a good time. LYLA grinned at him, "It's okay if you're jealous, you know. You thought you had no competition—"
Miguel's grip around his mug tightened, ignoring the sound of cracking. "It's not a competition. It's not fair for him to compete with me." He grumbled, "Look at him, what does he have that I don't?"
"He's funny, probably."
"LYLA."
"Hey man, you asked."
"I don't know why she likes that damn intern so much," His eyes trailed on the two of you, and on the clock, by now you'd usually ask him if he'd like to join you for lunch break, but you were too occupied, of course you were, that trainee never shut up, did he? "He's scrawny, clumsy, and doesn't know what he's doing most of the time." LYLA popped on his other shoulder, resting on it. "Maybe she finds him cute."
"Oh, please." The mug cracked a little more, "She shouldn't be persuing an office romance. Its unprofessional. Besides persuing an office romance with an intern," He watched him look at the clock, and point at the door, he mouthed you something along the lines of 'do you want to get out of here?'
Miguel's blood boiled.
"...is stupid. And she isn't stupid, quite the opposite. She should be with someone with a stable income. Someone who will treat her good."
"Oh what, like you?"
A loud smash caught the attention of everyone in the lab. You finally looked up at him, your eyes widening at the sight. Miguel looked down, only realising what had happened after the sting of hot liquid dribbled down his arm. He'd smashed the mug he was holding into tiny little pieces, most shards stuck in his bloodied hand. The coffee he'd been drinking caused minor burns too.
"Miguel!" You brushed past the intern and ran over to him. LYLA was no where to be found, but he distinctively heard the sentence 'Thank me later.' being whispered into his ear. You stood infront of him, your face woven with worry. "Your hand, what happened?" You gently grabbed his wrist, inspecting his injuried hand closely. "The mug, had to be bad quality, broke from how hot the coffee is." He knew that didn't make a bit of sense, what a lame excuse from the 'world's greatest genius' as you called him, but he was just a man, and right now, all his focus was on how your skin felt against his, and how extremly close you were to his body.
And at how the intern looked really pissed off.
"Oh, you poor thing, that must've hurt." You pouted your pretty lips, looking at him with those beautiful eyes. "Yeah." Miguel shifted, his expression stoic but his reddening ears betrayed the facade he keeps up around you. "I'll get the first aid kit, I took a nursing class once—Or would you like me to take you to the—"
"You'll do a just fine, I'm sure."
You let go of his wrist to grab the first-aid kit quickly, and Miguel looks over to the intern, who was stomping out of the lab, grumbling under his breath.
He grinned. If this is all it took to get your attention back on him, he'd surely break alot more mugs now.

r u taking requests 🥲? if u are can I ask for headcannons on muichiro, obanai, giyuu and shinobu x reader on what they would do if the reader is really tired and a huge sleepy head in general it would be so cute <333
Giyuu | Muichiro | Obanai | Shinobu [X Reader]
In which their s/o is always exhausted and has a hard time staying awake.
Tumblr media
Giyuu
He himself was never a very high energy or high demand individual
But next to you, he looked like a kid during their first sugar rush
You were always either leaning him or tucked away on the most comfortable surface nearby, dozing off
No, you weren't apart of the corps, so he didn't have any reason to force you up
You had your own job and you did it when you had to, and when he was away he would always come back to a clean house with all the chores done, along with you napping in bed
To be fair, Giyuu just assumes this is normal
I mean, he would do the same if he could, but he had a lot of duties and training to tend to
He loves cuddling up with you though, you keep the bed nice and warm for him
Muichiro
Muichiro isn't really sleepy, but he does gaze off extremely often
You are both totally lost together, because he just found out the wind makes noise and you were half asleep on the floor
If you were in the corps, you'd never be sent on missions together because somehow together the effects are worse on one another
You do get your missions done when together, it just means less details are remembered and those can be extremely vital
When home, Muichiro makes you lay your head in his lap wherever he goes- usually outside- while he stares at something of interest and just thinks
One thing he does often is speak his thoughts out loud around you, because he knows you won't take it too seriously or make fun of the nonsensical things he comes up with
Sometimes he just stares at you, and wonders what you're dreaming about
When you wake up he tries to guess, he is only getting more accurate!
Obanai
It's not that he is very energetic, but Obanai likes to do small, menial tasks to keep himself occupied
It might be tending to Kaburamaru, small exercises, or renewing his bandages
He refuses to sit down, and even if he does, he will be working on polishing his blade, or eating a meal
For this, he makes you move a lot to wherever he is if he is home
Sleeping is something you do a lot, he knows you're always tired if you don't, so he doesn't want to force you awake or make you feel bad for it
Instead he just wants you to follow him when he moved to another area, and you can sleep there until he moves on again
It keeps you somewhat active, but also brings him comfort in knowing you'll still be there, even if silent and often unmoving
Shinobu
You were very comfortable to be around considering you were mostly silent or spoke in a melancholic tone
Since she was always studying or tending to others, it helped her plenty having someone like that around
Someone who would watch over her and encourage her to be productive while not distracting her from her work too much
But as a doctor, she also understood that if you stayed still in the comfort of the mansion too often, you might become deficient in important vitamins
" You have to go outside once a day, dear! It's not good for you to stay like this all day! "
She says it like it's fact, and she's probably right
So long as you go out once a day for a small walk she is happy
Set up a hammock on the porch of the butterfly mansion where you can sleep in the sun rays, so you get all the vitamins you need even while asleep
If she has a young slayer alone in any of the healing wards, she will ask you to sleep there so they feel better with company
Even if you are tired, she knows you'll get up to help someone who might need something or is becoming ill
Tumblr media
Authors Note - Me too reader I love sleepin,,, I hope I was able to right up to your wishes, and thank you so much for requesting! This was pretty much all my most favourite hashira lol

Hello I don’t know if you’re currently taking requests but let me tell you. I need more about Milo. If you can. Like he became possessive with reader, jealous of everyone near her.
Milo X Reader: You belong to me
Tumblr media
Warnings: Fighting, bar fight, bone breaking, drunk men, sleazy men, smut, dirty talk, dom x sub (kind of), dom Milo, possessive Milo, ass bitting, fingering, making out, penetration ( p in v), unprotected sex, pet names.
Word count: 3K
He's staring again, he knows he is. He also knows he shouldn't but he can't help it. Not when you look like that. You're at the edge of the bar sipping a drink Milo can't quite recognize. He's known you for years but he never noticed what your go to drink was. Perhaps it was because he had been too occupied pretending the pain in his leg wasn't killing him to care or maybe it was because it didn't really matter. He would never be the one to approach you, your favorite drink in hand as he flirted his way into your heart. You'd never made him feel undesirable. He didn't believe you had it in you to make someone feel something like that but you didn't have to, his brain did the work for you. Self loathing does wonders to one's confidence. 
Milo has been watching you for a little while now. You hadn't invited him to the bar. It had been a coincidence. He'd sauntered into the pub, his mind set on finding a pretty thing to take home. He needed to test the waters of his new powers and he wanted company to do it. A special kind of company. He had expected to find someone random, anyone who peaked his interest enough. He wasn't expecting to see you, in fact, it was the last thing he expected but he would be lying if the sight of you didn't ignite something inside him. 
He still hadn't worked up the courage to walk over. This would be the first you saw him like this. The first time he'd talked to you since the "change". It thrilled him but it also scared him. He wondered how you would react. Would you just stare or would you scream at him for his irresponsible actions? He wouldn't be able to take the look of disappointment on your face. He remembered when you first found out about Michele's unorthodox studies. You didn't  speak to the doctor for a week which to some may seem like a small amount of time but that's because they had never met you. They had never had the pleasure of being around you long enough to feel the radiant energy that seeped from you. His fear of your opinion glued him to his spot but it didn't stop him from admiring you. Milo had almost accepted the fact that, despite wanting with all his heart to whisk you away from this dingy bar, you'd probably go home alone. It wasn't until a man approached you that Milos mind changed. He watched the man stumble towards you with a drunken smile on his face. You shuffled slowly to the side trying to put a small distance between the two of you. Milos' hands clenched at his side, his features turning into a scowl as he watched the scene before him. He saw you let out an uncomfortable laugh before shaking your head in a polite no. Milo noticed the way the man's body language shifted at your actions radiating a sort of dangerous energy. Milo didn't like it at all. Before his mind could compute what he was doing his body moved in your direction, his legs moving in steady steps. Milo had gotten to you just as the man had reached out to grab your arm, his body working as a barrier between you and the man. You glanced up at Milo with a look of visible confusion on your face.
“There you are darling. Was wondering where you'd gone.”
“Milo…”
His name left your lips in a breathy whisper sending a chill down his spine.
“Hey asshole we were talking.”
“You know this guy?”
You shook your head timidly, your body moving closer to Milos as you searched for safety. Milo placed his hand on your arm before turning to look at the other man.
“You heard the lady. She doesn't feel like talking to you.”
“That is not what she said.”
“Yeah because she's too polite for that. Luckily for her i’m not, so i'll say what she’s really thinking.”
Milo paused for a moment, his ears picking up on the beating of your heart. It was a bit slower than it had been when he arrived but it was still faster than it should be. The heartbeat of someone who was afraid. The noise seemed to snap something inside Milo's brain, a sudden feeling of rage coming over him.
“Fuck off.”
You let out a small gasp at Milo's words, your fingers digging into his forearm. 
“Milo leave it, let's get out of here.”
He hated the way your voice shook as you spoke. He hated the fact that this man had gotten to you. He wanted to rip this neck open in front of this entire bar. He wanted to show them all that you were under his protection and that anyone that messed with you would have to deal with him. But the way you clung to him brought him out of his rage filled daze. He turned to look at you, his hands moving to push a stray hair behind your ear.
“Okay darling, if that's what you want.”
With one meaningful glance at the man Milo turned around, placing his hands on your hips as he guided you away from the bar and towards the door. You’d barely made it five steps when Milo felt something wet on his shoulder. He heard your scream of his name followed by the sound of glass shards falling to the ground. Milo didn’t give himself enough time to think before he pushed you away, his body turning around to face his attacker just as the man prepared himself to land a punch on Milo's face. His fist came in contact with Milo's body but not in the way he’d wanted it to. Instead of knocking into Milos cheek the man's hand found its way into Milos open palm, his eyes widening in fear as he made eye contact with the vampire. Milo twisted the man's arm, cracking the bone with ease. You watched with wide eyes as Milo tugged the man against his chest and whispered something in his ear before shoving him away. The man stumbled to the  ground using his unharmed hand to drag himself away from Milo in fear. Milo turned towards you, one hand pushing his hair back as the other reached for your arm. You let Milo drag you away from the bar, your legs moving quickly in order to keep up with his long strides. It was only then that you noticed he was walking without difficulty and without a cane. You stopped walking, your body freezing in the middle of the sidewalk causing Milo to stop as well. He turned to look at you, the anger in his features slipping away as he saw the fear on your face.
“Milo how are you…how did you-”
“It doesn't matter.”
“How the fuck can you say that? You just broke that guys like it was made of fucking paper!”
You glanced down at his legs.
“And you're walking like it's no problem.”
“What a big deal? People do that everyday.”
“Well you're not like most people Milo! You’re-
“What? A sick man? A weakling? A good for-”
“Stop it! I’d never call you any of that and you know it you jerk!”
You turned your face away from Milo, your hands going to wipe away the tears that had started to fall from your eyes. Milos' shoulders sagged at the sight. You just been through hell and here he was yelling at you like you were in the wrong. He called out your name, making you turn to look at him. Your lip shook slightly, making you bite on it in an attempt to look strong.
“I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have yelled at you. Please forgive me.”
He opened his arms to you with a silent request for a hug. You waited for a second before letting your body collide into Milos. He pulled you as close as he possibly could, burying his face into your hair. He listened as your heartbeat calmed down, a small sigh leaving your lips.
“Thank you.”
“Gotta be able to protect what’s mine.”
The words left Milos' lips with little effort. It wasn't until he felt your body tense that he noticed what he had said. He waited in silence, trying to see how you’d react. You shifted against him, lifting your head so you could look into his eyes. When you met his gaze and  saw the primal like expression in them your breath caught in your throat. You had no idea what had happened to him. Even though he looked the same as he always had there was something different about the way he looked at you. He looked at you like he was a lion and you were a juicy piece of meat. And though it startled you it also sent a thrill down your spine.
“What’s yours hum?” 
Your hand trailed down Milos chest fingers running over the clothes ridges of his abs.
“Yes…”
“And what do you do with what’s yours?”
He couldn't take it anymore. Not with the way your body felt warm against him and the way you bit your lips as you spoke. Milos lips crashed into yours, his hands tangling into your hair as he kissed you. You let him grab onto your body, a small moan leaving your lips when he gives your ass a squeeze. He loved the sounds you made as his hands moved against you. You break the kiss, the need for air getting to you. Milos hands don’t leave your frame, his fingers digging into your hips as he rests his forehead against your.
“Take me to your house.”
“With fucking pleasure darling.” 
You’ve been inside Milo's house a thousand times and you knew the layout like the palm of your hand. Even so you managed to walk into the wrong room. You blamed Milo. The way he tugged at your body in desperation left your brain dizzy. You glanced around the room, eyes falling on the desk in the corner.
“This isn’t your bedroom.”
Milo raised his head, detaching his lips from your neck. 
“You’re right it's not. But this works.”
“There isn't a bed Milo.”
“Oh darling, who said we need a bed?”
A smirk spread across Milo's face as he watched your eyes widen before glancing to look at the desk once more.
“Well what are you waiting for? Get over there.”
“You want me on your desk?”
“I was thinking more like over my desk but on works too.”
You rubbed tights together at the sound of Milo's voice. You weren’t used to seeing this side of him. He was usually quiet and slightly melancholic. The man in front of you wasn’t like that at all. The man in front of you was demanding and sexy. You'd be lying if you said you didn’t enjoy it.
“I thought I gave you an order darling.”
Milos hand wrapped around your throat squeezing lightly as he leaned down to give your lips a quick peak.
“Get over there. Now.”
“Yes sir.”
You turned around a yelp leaving your lips when you felt Milos hand come in contact with your ass in a rough slap.
“That's my good girl.”
“All yours sir.”
Milo licked his lips making his way to you. He watched as you hopped onto his desk, spreading your legs so that he could see your underwear. A moan left Milos lips as his eyes caught a look at the lace you wore.
“Planning on getting fucked tonight?”
“I was actually. Just wasn’t expecting it to be by you.”
Milos smile drops at your words. He leans in closer, placing his arms beside each of your thighs, caging you with his body. You swallow dry at the sight of the scowl on his face worried you’d angered him somehow. You had made him angry but not at you. Oh no. He was angry at everyone else. Angry at the others that had gotten a chance to look at you, touch you and taste you before him. He loathed them but he couldn’t change the past. The only thing he could do is make sure that for this day forward he was the only one who could have you like this. Milos eyes bore into you the silence making you uneasy but then he gave you a sly grin and you calmed down a bit.
“You think that…”
Milos hands made their way in between your legs rubbing your clothed clit as he spoke.
“Anyone could fuck you better than i can?”
Your hips bucked as Milo pushed your underwear aside playing with your folds for a moment before inserting a digit into your cunt. Your lips fell open as you moaned, closing your eyes as Milo fucked your with his fingers.
“I asked you a question.”
“No i-ugh shit- don’t think anyone can fuck me better than you.”
“And who do you belong to?”
“Ah-fuck please- you Milo. I’m yours, I'm all yours.”
“Good girl.”
You placed your hands behind you, fingers digging into the wooden desk beneath you as Milo kept up his brutal pace.
“Wanna cum pretty thing?”
“Yess please Milo…so close-oh-please don’t stop.”
“Okay i’ll let you cum but first you gotta give me a kiss.”
You pushed yourself up so that you were closer to Milo, one of your hands finding his cheek. He smiled at you, plunging his fingers as deep as he could. You launched forward, giving him a rough kiss. 
“Cum princess, go on cum on my fingers.”
He didn’t have to ask you twice. Your body stiffened as your orgasm washed over you, your hands snaking their way across Milo's shoulders as he worked you down from your high. Your body sagged into his as he removed his fingers from your pussy and brought them to his lips. He licked his hand clean of  your juices, head falling back at the taste of you.  
“Taste so good darling.”
“Yeah?”
“That perfuct fucking pussy.”
“Your perfect fucking pussy.”
Milos dick twitched at your words the sultry tone in them making him feel impossibly harder. You seemed to notice the way his hips shifted closer to you. Your hands made their way to his pants unbuttoning them before reaching into his boxers. Milo groaned as you pallmed his cock making you smirk up at him.
“Happy to see me?”
“You have no idea.”
“I think I got a pretty good feeling.”
Milo laughed, placing a kiss to your cheek as he pushed your hair away from your face. You moved your face so that you could place Milos fingers into your mouth. He watched as you sucked on his digits, never breaking eye contact. You removed his fingers from your mouth with a pop.
“Can I take care of you Milo?” 
“As much as I would love that darling, I need to be inside you.”
“OKay. How do you want me?”
Milo pulled you off the desk flipping you around so your back was pressed to his chest.
“Lay down darling.”
“Yes sir.”
You did as he asked your ass brushing against his hard on as you did. Milos hands moved to your hips pulling your dress up so that he could get a good view of your ass. He let out a wolf whistle as he grabbed your cheeks. 
“Now that’s an ass I could get used to kissing up to.”
“What's stopping you?”
Milos grinned at you leaning down and giving your butt a soft bite. You pressed your face into the desk at the feeling, your pussy clenching around nothing.
“Delectable.”
“Thank you.”
“Oh don’t thank me just yet darling. I’m about to ruin you.”
“I wanna see you try.”
“Is that right?”
“Uh hum.”
Milos hands ran up your bare thigh, his fingers toying with the edge of your underwear before ripping it off in one quick motion. You gasped as the cool air hit your exposed cunt. It wasn't long before the chill air was replaced with the feeling of Milo's warm skin. He inched his dick into your pussy slowly, trying not to cum at the feeling of your walls fluttering against him and the sounds of your squeals. Once he was fully inside he tugged your hair, forcing you to lean off the table. You could feel the outline of Milos abs against your back as he leaned down to suck on your neck.
“This is that last warning darling. Last chance to back out. If I start now I won't be able to control myself.”
“Lucian i swear to god if you don’t fuck me right now.”
Before you could even fully finish your phrase Milo had laid you back down on the desk and started pistoling  into you. He’d bring his dick almost all the way out before plugging it back in all the way. Your nipples rubbed against the wood as your body rocked with Milos movements. You could feel the desk creaking beneath you a twinge of worry entering your system but quickly vanishing. So what if he broke the desk? He could afford a new one. What he couldn't afford was cumming before you. Milo's hands found their way to your clit, rubbing it exactly. He felt you clench around him as you came causing him to reach his own orgasm. Your body fell lip on the desk, whimpering as you felt Milo pull out. You shut your eyes listening to Milo walk to the other end of the room. He returned with a wet towel, gently cleaning up the cum that had started to leak down your thighs. You whispered a small thank you, far too tired to move. Milo threw the towel on the floor, his hands wrapping around your waist as he pulled you off of the desk. He sat down on his chair tugging you into his lap. You nuzzled into Milos neck, sighing contentedly. Milos' hands stroked your hair, observing you as sleep seemed to take over your body. He placed a kiss to your hair breathing in your scent. A scent that had been made for him and only him. Everything was just as it should be: you in Milos arms. The place which you’d always belonged to.

Eldritch Steve
Part 8
-
Owens arrives in Hawkins as the government always does, a day late and a dollar short. He shows uo with his goons a day after Joyce and Hopper get back from Russia, and Hopper goes off on him.
Steve is amused, leaning against the wall next to Eddie, who is just staring, sometimes Steve forgets that this is his first go around, he's been so calm.
He has nightmares, but not as often as he did before Steve showed him what he really was, showed him just why he had no reason to fear the Down Below. Steve doesn't tell Eddie that he is doubly protected, Wayne has not told Eddie that he and Steve are the same kind of creature, and it is not Steve's secret to tell, so he won't.
Hopper finally trails off, the months of torture in a Russian gulag showing on his face.
Steve almost feels sorry for him, sorry he didn't confirm his death but he had the kids to take care of, the woods to patrol, just because the main gates are closed does not mean the cracks are, cracks like the ones Steve slipped through, like the one Wayne must have slipped through.
Steve has been eating the Demongorgans that came hunting, the demodogs too, making trinkets and charms from their bones.
Hmm, Steve thought as he looked over at Eddie, eyes falling to his hands, maybe he should make a ring next, Eddie would probably like that.
"We really shoud do some tests, Steve." Owens said to him making Steve tune back into the conversation.
Steve looked at Owens, "No, I'm fine."
"You were attacked by a new creature, we should make sure that they don't carry any diseases." One of Owens' doctors said, sounding way too gleeful about it.
Steve stared at her, with a frown, then remembered that for humans the air of the Down Below was toxic, it wasn't for Steve and he'd protected the kids from the hostile air when they had seemed to forget about that fact.
"It doesn't matter, I'm not doing any tests." Steve told them.
"Steve, sweetie, you should let them help." Joyce said softly, it was the same tone she tended to use on Will and Jonathan when she wanted them to do something. It was a tone mother's used on their children.
But she was not his mother, and Steve forced himself to remember that she was Will's mother, that El considered Joyce her mother too, but she had left them while she ran off to Russian, left them vulnerable and alone.
Steve knew what El had gone through, what Owens and Brenner had put her through, she'd told him in stops and starts late at night when nightmares woke her and Steve returned from hunting.
Steve would never forgive Joyce or Owens for that, and he'd never trust either of them with his kids again.
"I said no." Steve said, tone cold, with zero inflection, and he ignored the way Nancy and Robin flinched, it was the same otherworldly tone he'd had in the Down Below.
Eddie's hand found his wrist to ground him, something he'd picked up from Carol, who used it to remind Steve about being Human, but Steve no longer cared as he watched several soldiers tighten their grips on their guns, scents coiling with disgust at the display of affection between two men.
Owens seemed to realize that there was an edge of hostility but he didn't try to defuse it, not yet.
Steve shifted, and his kids seened to understand and moved so they were behind him, Will and El even moving from Joyce and Hoppers' sides, El wrapping her small hand around the wrist not occupied by Eddie's hold.
"There's no need for there to be any problems, a few tests, and then we all go home, like the last few times." Owens tried to placate, but it was clear by the shift that Owens was not in charge here.
"You should make them lower their guns." Eddue said softly, he could almost feel Steve's anger, feel him losing control.
Eddie knew Steve could hurt the soldiers faster than they could fire, he'd seen Steve swallow Demogorgans whole in the blink of an eye but killing the soldiers would not solve anything except satiate Steve's hunger for a time.
"I don't think so. You're going to let the doctors do their tests, and then sign the disclosures." One of the ranking soldiers said, gun coming up more firmly.
"There's no need for threats." Hopper said, tone angry.
"They are not threats." Steve said before Owens could speak.
They all looked at him, because now there was that otherworldly echo in his voice, and it would be so tempting to tear the nearest crack to the Down Below wide open and throw the soldiers to the creatures there that Steve hunted and feasted upon.
But El squeezed his wrist, looking up at him with wide, pleading and terrified eyes, she'd never seen his real form, even Eddie had only seen glimpses of it, only Wayne had seen all of him, just as Steve had seen all of Wayne before they'd come here to the Upper World.
"There are no threats here." Steve said, forcing himself to calm, but he would not be keeping his secret any longer, not when keeping it would put Eddie in danger, Steve turned to Owens, never taking his eyes off the soldier with his gun raised, "I'm the most dangerous Creature the Down Below ever released into this world, and I do not take threats to what's mine lightly."
Steve reached out and watched every single gun in the room fall to the ground in useless pieces.
"You ever threaten My Mate again and you will beg for a death that will not come." Steve said, suddenly in the ranking soldier's face, "I will feast on your flesh for centuries, and before I am done with you I will devour your wife, your child and all those that are yet to spring forth from you disgusting seed. I will make you watch and remind you that your line is ended in this way because you have such hate in your heart. You will wish your bloodline had ended with you."
Steve stared at him and waited for the prey to look away, ignoring the way he trembled in fear, the stench of terror he released.
Once the man looked away Steve turned back to Owens, a little delighted at the way the man had paled.
"No tests, and I expect Eddie's home to be replaced and the same compensation given to him as the children, as per our first conversation." Steve told him, "Now, if you'll excuse us, it's passed the childrens' bedtime, they have a game to play tomorrow."
Without waiting for the other adults to agree Steve ushered the kids out of the room, guiding the younger ones to Eddie's van and giving Nancy a look as he touched Robin's shoulder.
A warning that she would pay if anything happened to Robin while she was in Nancy's care, but Steve let her go with Nancy.
But he would not be letting the children out of his sight while Owens and his men were in Hawkins, not even to their parents, he did not even think he'd be able to leave them in Wayne's care.
He'd lost his spawn once, he would not lose them again.

NICE my post got two notes anyways here's my thoughts on the pines fam handling over/understimulation as a neurodivergent and mentally ill family in my own personal canon
putting this under a readmore again because uhhh as always with my headcanons there's a lot and it'll probably be annoying to scroll thru over and over
if anyone else has any thoughts about this feel free 2 add onto this post <3 <3 <3 would love to hear it!!!!! ^_^
starting off with mabel, obviously she CRAVES stimulation so so badly and is constantly looking for something new to do, to the point where her default state is Slightly Overstimulated. i figure she also struggles with emotional dysregulation (even worse because mabel is literally just a kid and isnt equipped to handle heightened emotions with grace just yet sdfjjds) and she absolutely canNOT be understimulated or else she will explode the ENTIRE state of oregon. however a couple too many unpleasant sounds or textures or tastes at once and her entire day is ruined- well, it's not really, but it sure feels like it at the time. she starts angry crying and hitting things and only really calms down when she is completely separated from whatever was upsetting her or vice versa (her threshold for the amount of overstimulation she can handle before snapping probably lowers Significantly post-weirdmageddon), having waddles with her usually cheers her up a lot quicker though<3
ford is actually similar to her in a few aspects here, he too is running as far away from understimulation as possible, always sitting in his room tinkering with some new invention or running around catching some new creature to occupy himself. (he wasn't always like this! as a kid, between him and stan he was definitely and obviously the more docile one. but as an adult he feels the need to seek stimulation moreso because he needs to distract himself from his constant stream of often unpleasant thoughts) this has the unpleasant side effect of isolating himself from the people around him, but it's not intentional, it's just that busying himself with projects and studying the supernatural is his Default Solution to having nothing to do. it's comfortable for him. he also has the Thing where if he isn't explicitly invited to join someone, he doesn't feel comfortable doing so, even if he really wants to.
dipper and stan are completely different from mabel and ford in that they just. nobody ever told them that understimulation is not the default state of existing for everyone else??? so they just??? Put up with it regularly???? dipper stims frequently without realizing to combat this- clicking/chewing on pens over and over and pacing his room for example, but more often than not it isn't Quite Enough and he doesn't know Why. this is also why dipper's anxiety is So bad- sitting around without making an effort to distract himself from his many thoughts will often get him catastrophizing within minutes (him and ford probably bond over having Too Much Thought Head Full). in fact, if he didn't have mabel around to remind him to have fun and use his time wisely instead of getting stuck inside his own head for hours on end he would probably be a very different and much less emotionally stable person than he is in the show jsdjfjsda
stan doesn't stim very much except when he's genuinely scared or upset, in which case he is cracking his knuckles, gripping onto the closest fabric so hard it almost tears, pulling off his cuticles, picking at scabs etc etc (you can imagine how much he fucked up his skin in the days following both instances of him losing ford). he probably had very different habits when he was a kid though- because come on. stan was totally the poster child for audhd, constantly running around and being loud to satisfy his lil brain. however within a few years certain nd behaviors stop being "cute" to others and instead start attracting a shit ton of ridicule so now his only stims are ones which are inconspicuous and could be passed off as stress habits instead of being a clear sign of neurodivergence- plus he probably ended up developing shittier coping mechanisms while running around for 10 years after getting kicked out. but it's not like he can smoke or drink all the time with the kids (wendy and soos included) around though so his options are kinda limited

broken | c.s (11)
Tumblr media
prev // next // series m.list
pairing: choi san x reader
word count: 5.5k
warning: u alr know
a/n: went off the radar 4 a while only to pull 5k out of my ass. pls give me all the constructive criticisms <3
you were glad to have lost him in the crowd, hiding behind the shoulders of people until your ride showed up and took you back to the dorm--though that was probably a mistake on your part.
because when there's a knock at the door, you know it's him.
you also know you shouldn't open it; shouldn't allow him back in because there's no reason to hear him out.
but a part of you, so hurt by what he did--the scene still playing in your head and the image of it just as painful as the first time, it feels like there's a brick sitting on your chest whilst trying to catch your breath--that you just need some kind of consolation, even if it comes in the form of predictable lies and a bigger inevitable heartbreak.
want him to tell you that it was a mistake, that she was the one who threw herself onto him; that he never meant to hurt you... even if it wasn't a mistake and though he didn't mean to hurt you, he wasn't thinking of you.
"what?" you try to sound angry, maybe even a little bored to hide the fact you cried the entire ride here.
he stands tall outside your room but look the smallest you've ever seen him, dark hair falling over his eyes and speaking in a shameful voice, "can i talk to you?"
you sulk at that, a click of your tongue and turning around to go sit at the edge of your bed with arms crossed, as if there could an explanation for why he was all over someone else when you weren't there.
his hands gripping her hips and face in her neck the way only he's allowed to do to you.
"i promise that her and me are just friends," he says, shutting the door behind him and settling down beside you, but you're so upset and hurt, his leg just slightly brushing yours sparking a reaction like never before, you have to scoot over and put on some kind of distance.
“we’re…” he drags his words before finishing it off, “friends.” a smile settling on him after that makes you feel so sick–whether it’s from how attractive he still looks or how the answer brings out so many other questions.
“friends?” you reiterate like you’re in denial.
“yeah, friends.”
“do friends sleep with each other?” kiss each other, visit one another and spew such sweet, blush-inducing words that conjures up butterflies?
“some friends do.”
when you finally spare him a glance, you have to keep from giving in just at the guilt all over his face and that he actually came after you. but you're fast to renounce immediately when you see that dark, stained mark on his neck again staring back like someone hitting the replay button on your misery once more.
then all that comes out are just cold and bitter words said in the most unamused tone, san even thinks you sound sarcastic.
"she's a friend, i'm a friend, what's the difference?"
the harshness stuns him, though, what else did he expect? because even someone sweet and forgiving like you has a breaking point when pushed too far.
"you're not just a friend, y/n. you're--"
"i'm what?"
you await his answer, possibly a lie that will make you feel better and more special compared to every other girls he messes with. but the disappointment when he remains silence is strong, it consumes you completely.
"well, i'm sorry i ruined the night for you. i finished most of my assignments and just thought maybe we could hang out, but looks like you already got company. so truly, i'm sorry."
"don't say that."
"why not? it's true though. you were occupied when i got there."
"stop staying that!"
the volume picks you up from the seat, his delivery could've fooled anyone that it was just a blind accusation. but you realize; take in, that san doesn't like his own fuck-ups being thrown in his face. no one really does.
"look, i'm sorry. really sorry," he tries again, voice softer, attempting to calm you; calm himself.
but after everything, after building up your trust and filling your fragile heart with so much hope, all he can offer is a sorry. no lies or consolations because none of it was a mistake.
you suddenly feel like it's getting much harder to breathe, the brick on your chest multiplying by a million and cutting the airway.
"y/n?" san calls, his once shameful face turning concerned. "are you okay?"
but you certainly don't feel okay, and you honestly haven't for a long time. if ever. and every episode in the same fashion is a reminder of that.
"it's fine," you manage to let out, a bittersweet smile on and a response that san can't read into. "you didn't do anything wrong."
this isn't a relationship--a proper one at least, and he isn't your boyfriend. the hardest pill to swallow is he didn't have to come after you, didn't have to apologize... because a truth even harder to digest, is that he doesn't owe you anything.
but you can still hurt from it; allow the pain to settle in as if everything he's done with you is only exclusive to you and him. only you can kiss him, mark him, and his hands should only be on your hips. not anyone else.
and you do. you hurt from it so much, tears streaming down your cheeks so quietly but the sight such a sore to watch, san's not sure what to say to make it better.
can he even make it better?
there's nothing to clarify and nothing to add. you very clearly saw everything for what it was: he replaced you, just like that. and the sickest thing is that he did it so mindlessly like it's a habit. because that's what he does.
he didn't think you'd take it this hard, or maybe he was just hoping he wouldn't get caught because breaking you is easy... he's done it before, but he's afraid this is the worst, yet.
"y-you should go," you say suddenly, picking your head up to san's wide eyes staring back at your puffy red ones before you swipe your runny nose.
"i..." he fidgets, "i can't go right now. not with you like this."
he can almost laugh at the absurdity, the irony of it all when he's the reason you're in this state right now. he understands the absolute ridiculousness but he really can't go; leave you like this.
a shake of your head is what you give, along with a tight-lipped smile although the tears are starting to sting and it's still not any easier to breathe.
"go. i'll be fine."
"no."
you wish for once to understand san, what goes on inside his head and how he makes his choices, because no matter how much you find out about him, it seems you never really truly know who he is.
he will say one thing and then does another; do this then tell you that. hurt you then feel bad about it, like he never really means anything.
san confuses you.
and you also wish you're not so weak-hearted to let him stay by your side once more as if he's not capable of hurting you again.
Tumblr media
the week has been tense, something unpleasant always in attendance when you're with san, even if he's trying his best to brush it off; ignore it, put a smile on his face and act as if it doesn't bother him, too.
as if the week before, he didn't nearly send you into a panic attack and the sight continuously ingrained in his head, it might've scarred him just a bit.
but you're honestly still not used to it--san actually staying around and constantly checking up on you to make sure everything's okay after what happened.
it's odd he actually gives a shit, but even odder you're starting to recognize the pattern of lovebombing every time he fucks up and you can't even find the willpower to be genuinely upset. maybe just a little tired at this point, but still going along to see where it will take you, a gut feeling that the end is near.
"what are you working on?" san's voice makes you jump, turning the laptop the other way immediately in a panic. moments ago, he was still occupied in his own world, you were so sure he wouldn't be interested in your exciting school works.
"just fixing up my draft for a class," you tell him, having to move the laptop even further when he tries stealing a glimpse again, a loose giggle escaping from his lips at the expression on you.
"what's wrong? don't want me to see it?" he raises a brow teasingly.
"it's just a silly little story," you dismiss, "full of mistakes and a lot of corrections that needs to be made."
"i'm sure it's not that bad. but anything from you, i'll read."
a charming smile rests on him and with words like a spell, you have to keep it together; remind yourself that this is the man who had hurt you and no matter how sweet or convincing he is, there's a chance he's gonna do it again, every seconds spent with him constantly in alert ever since, that if you can hardly say no, you can at least keep from showing any amount of joy or satisfaction around him.
"maybe next time."
he just nods lightly and backs up.
"whenever you're confident enough."
it's all so eerie, you might as well preferred when he treated you like shit instead. it's just unlike san to be so lenient, the offer to hang out having came from him when you had made clear he didn't have to because you would be leaving for work soon anyways.
but he was eager about staying regardless of how short the visit would be, it's hard to be touched when you're not at all convinced it's out of sincerity.
"i have to get ready for work." you close the laptop and search the room for materials you have prepared.
san twitches in his seat and swallows down before speaking.
"i'll come pick you up?"
freezing in your spot at that, you turn to him and shake your head.
"no, it's fine. i'll take a cab home like i always do."
the jab is subtle but san doesn't miss it, a look of shame and guilt on him, but he's fooled you one too many times, you can hardly believe anything anymore.
"please, y/n," he pleads, desperation overriding his features as he stands up and hovers over you, "i don't mind. as long as you let me."
as long as you let me. as if all this time, you weren't waiting for him to do his part; the only thing finally pushing him to act upon it now is when he has to.
"if you want," you give in, and he can tell it's only because you're in a hurry, the cold shoulder unlike anything he's ever experienced before. he can't say he doesn't deserve it, but it's definitely out of place coming from you.
it's also out of place he's even trying to make up; console you, everything of which he usually doesn't do, but he feels he owes you that at the very least... or maybe he's just not ready to let it go, yet.
the comfort, your presence, and the things you do for him. he don't want to let go of how easy everything is with you, he wish for it to last just a little longer despite knowing how it will end, but he is so, so selfish.
"i'll be there."
Tumblr media
"wooyoung's party is tonight," you initiate during the third time he's picked you up after a work shift.
"so?" he shrugs.
"you're not going?"
"no."
"oh..." you sigh, slouching in the seat and looking out the window of his car. "if you want to, you can. you're not obligated to--"
"--can we please not talk about that?"
about the very thing that lead you two into the current predicament, no longer in each other arms and staring into the other's eyes lovingly, but with a gaze always so tense and uncomfortable that he's too responsible for.
"san, you don't have to do this. we're not even dating, and i... i don't really care about it anymore," your voice tapers out at the end, so utterly weak, you can't even carry a lie to the last breath because you definitely do still care, and it definitely still hurts like it's the first time.
but to be treated like a responsibility; an obligation he's bind to and have to act upon--it just doesn't sit right. you've already spent way too long being nothing but a burden.
"even if you don't care about it anymore, i feel bad, okay? that was awful of me to do, and i really want to make it up to you. i hurt you, i know i did."
it would be easy to go along with it, the fact he's even trying at all when the relationship is nameless; lacking of label--you should even be grateful to an extent. but the weight is harder to shake off, and every second with the conflict brewing makes you feel as if doom is coming and you're about to burst.
you don't say anything, only merely glancing out the window again to find some form of peace because even the subject is starting to wear you out at this point.
"i won't be attending any more of those parties," he speaks up after you're quiet for too long; the statement making your head snap to him.
"huh? you know you don't--"
"--i know i don't have to, but i wan't to, so please don't try to convince me otherwise."
and maybe the you before he went and fucked up the very last bit of faith you had left in him, would've been moved. but as of currently, you're all too aware of his intentions.
pushed to the edge and the trust in him nearly gone, he understands it will never be the same again. he just wishes even if for the last time, to be in your good grace, because though he doesn't want to let go yet, he don't know for how much longer he'll be able to stay.
the clock is ticking and the distance between you and him is growing more and more.
it would be a lot less painful if he stops everything here; save you the heartbreak and tears that are going to come, but again, he really is such an opportunist, always taking and never giving.
it's poor and tasteless to say that's just how he is, but it's the truth... so he throws himself down; stripped of dignity and pride, and all just for you... for the first and possibly, last time.
"goodnight," he whispers, voice soft and trying to light up the mood before the end of the night, because your eyes are nothing but dead.
"goodnight." it sounds almost like an inaudible and uninterested mumble, the life on you completely different from his.
the both of you just stare at each other, as if waiting for the other person to finally say the last call and end what would usually be a kiss and maybe bodies tangled together in a heated session, but now more like two acquaintances trying to make the best out of the situation.
"are you free tomorrow?" he asks, trying his very best.
and you suppose you've had far too many chances to make things right; lessen the pain and end what is already dead, but the undeniable truth is no matter how much you preach... you're also afraid to let go, if not, more than him.
"yeah."
~
"is that another story you're working on?" his voice rings in your ear, making your nervous eyes twitch to him.
"san!" you nag, and he only giggles in return, backing away from the screen before you're able to push him yourself.
"what? i just want to see." he shrugs.
"well, keep your eyes away." you nearly roll your own, huffing before switching to another tab.
"is it that bad?" the teasing tone is evident, prompting another glare from you.
"it's not a story. just something for my class."
"hmm," san hums, nodding, "when you said you were free, i didn't expect to be sitting on the side while you finish up class assignments."
"well, when i said free, i meant i'm not going anywhere."
"right." he nods sarcastically, "we should do something."
"like?"
"like going out, or if not, we can watch a movie of your choice, if you want something explicit like last time, i'm fine with that too." he smirks, and you have to hold back from overreacting.
"whatever," you dismiss quietly, handing the laptop over to him.
"you pick. i don't really have anything in mind right now."
but it's a mistake, because instead, san clicks on the document you were working on; the surge of panic making you pry the device from him harshly but he's a fighter, tugging even harder.
"san, if you don--"
with another jerk, you're pressed up against his chest and staring into those coy eyes you're all too familiar with, conjuring up butterflies that's been so long, you almost forgot how he made you feel, with his handsomeness and smile that's too easy to fall into.
he smirks before stealing a kiss to your cheek, releasing the laptop as you fall back gently while the blush crawls out.
"sorry," he says cheekily, but you know he doesn't really mean it.
you attempt to fight the smile at the tip of your lips, biting down to conceal as much as possible, san thinks it's extremely endearing.
it's also been way too long since he's kissed you, and seeing the first genuine reaction in such a long while, nothing reminiscent of hatred or bitterness does make him feel a certain way.
~
it's only supposed to be dinner at san's place (at first). he invites you and says he wants to do something for the weekend, and it's not like you're going to decline when he's doing everything--as well as picking you up.
it's always casual at first; conversation, gestures, and everything.
you're starting to lose the edges a bit ever since that day, san witnessing more smiles than frowns and you don't look like you completely hate him, so he thinks, maybe things can be good again.
his apartment always feel homey, though you don't always feel welcomed every time... it is very nicely decorated.
roaming the interior and everywhere you guys have been before, you have to keep from really thinking too much; close out the thoughts of who else he brings here and where exactly he kissed them.
rather than forgiving san, you just kind of became... numb to it all.
the reminder isn't as frequent, but every time you do remember, the hit is still sharp and you'd have to catch your breath, but you've just gotten better at acting like it doesn't bother you anymore.
when the aroma from the kitchen finally settles in, it knocks any other thoughts out of your head and becomes the primary focus as you start sniffing the air.
"let me set everything up," san speaks from behind, walking past you to get to the kitchen.
and it starts like that. a nice dinner at his much smaller kitchen island filled with soft laughters and a genuine interest for each other, it's everything you envisioned if things were right.
when he offers some soju, you don't drink too much as the taste of alcohol in general still something you're not used to, but you drink enough to get tipsy.
enough to loosen up and not feel completely like yourself, but also not enough to still know that when san crashes his lips against yours, it's all kinds of wrong that only feels right in the moment.
the one that you will come to regret once you're sober enough and really think. but maybe your life is as messed up as it is because you never really do, always drawn to temptation over logic.
san is going to be your biggest downfall and he won't be the only one at fault.
you kiss him back and throw both arms around his neck, the slight flavor of the drink he had still lingering and you don't miss the scent that comes along with it as he manages to pick you up and throw down your body onto the couch.
you miss the way he feels on your skin, and he misses your skin on his lips, which is why the first kiss delivered to your neck is the only gentle one before he loses himself.
what comes after that is cliche and obvious.
it doesn't feel right but it does feel good. both of you panting and trying to catch your breaths as he snap his hips into yours and gets a curse out of you.
"oh fuck..." you bite down your lower lip and your nails only digs deeper into the skin of his back at the sensation.
so you sleep with him that night, the shame only hitting when the morning sun rises and you awake to his bare chest pressed against your back and his arm wrapped around your waist.
he's still sleeping and he's absolutely beautiful as always.
you wonder, aside from breaking a foolish girl's heart over and over again, what kind of things has san managed to get away with just because he's as mesmerizing as he is.
it would be easy for someone like him.
but shame can only do so much and last for so long before you submit to temptation again and sleeps with him a few more times after as well, just because he's good at pretending you mean something to him, and you're all too good at self destruction and fooling yourself that when he stayed all those nights with you until morning, it's because of something else and not what you already know.
Tumblr media
the park is quiet; empty, not a single soul in sight other than you and the boy who came along as the small talks take you both in under the moonlight.
"have you always liked writing?" he asks, and you can't help the scoff that leaves, because when did choi san become so invested in mindless hobbies and things you do to pass time. or in this case, something you still haven't quite grasped that still feels much like a chore because it is tied to a class in the first place.
"no." you shake your head, walking along the narrow path as the summer breeze rustles the branches of the trees.
"i only recall slightly that you like computers."
"kind of. yeah," you confirm short and simple, not about to have that conversation again about why it wasn't meant to be.
san is selfish, in the most vain and obvious fashion that doesn't take a genuis to figure out. you believe he knows so himself and holds very little shame from the fact.
eventually, his mask will unveil and it's not like he ever tried hard enough to hide it because you're also selfish in your own ways.
you may not be calculating like san is, but to have keep him around this long and to say it's not because of your own stupid desires and wants would be a lie.
that you also don't use him to fill the hurt and emptiness in your life, chasing after him so hard because he's the closest to the kind of love you've always wanted.
because if you weren't, you would've let him go.
someone like san won't ever be able to love you, and even if he did, how long would it be until he realizes the commitment to one person is all too much and gets bored?
even now, you wonder if he enjoys the time with you at all. because who would rather hang with you than be out at an obnoxious party? but he can still offer temporary relief, and that's awful of you to say, but he was the first to be selfish and will continue to be until the last breath of the 'relationship' so why can't you also?
time seems like it's closing out and you're not sure how much longer the two of you can play pretend before the inevitible shows itself.
"what about you?" you perk to him, blinking your lashes charmingly. "you talked of dancing and performing before, so how come i've only heard about it once?"
a half scoff half laugh escapes from him and turning his attention to the path instead like you just asked a ridiculous question.
"well, i kind of already told you why, but i just don't got much passion for it nowaday."
“i’m not sure,” is all he says, a small sigh of disappointment escaping from you that goes unheard. “i wanted to major in dance and performance, but…”
“but?”
“but i can’t make a living or lifestyle out of it. so i didn’t.”
"i remember. but if you considered it, the passion must had been there once upon a time."
"oh yeah, definitely."
you hesitate for a second, but there's not a lot to lose at this point.
"i'd love to know, if you don't mind telling me."
it takes another couple of steps, but he does answer with very little objection much to your surprise.
"wooyoung got me into it, believe it or not."
"wooyoung was in on it, too?"
"yeah." san laughs. "i was an even worse dancer before i met him. but yeah, was in some sort of club or group for it in high school and we performed at some school events, but that's pretty much it. nothing really worth calling back to."
"no, that's great. it takes a lot of courage to go up there, cause i wouldn't have had the guts. i think i would pass out."
"oh, i know," he teases, and you shoot an unserious glare his way.
"and what about wooyoung? did he go into performance?"
san shakes his head.
"nah. undecided also, but i don't think he's stressing out too much about it. from his parents alone, he would be able to land a sweet job even if he got kicked out."
you nod, a snarky smile on your lips.
"yeah, true."
rich kids and their privileges.
after a few more strolls in silence around the area, san suggests taking a break from walking, both of you plopping onto the bench with tired breath puffing into the air.
it's your first time at this park, but it's not too big and has a nice amount of benches, but more so, the location is convenient because it's a good distance from the dorm which means less chance of your friends finding out.
"dance for me," you demand out of thin air, san turning to meet your gaze a few seconds before a laugh tumbles out, thinking you're most likely joking.
"i'm serious." you sit up and adjust your shirt slightly.
"it's been almost an entire year since i last danced to anything, i'm rusty now."
"so? i want to see. come on," you continue to urge, scooting even closer because then, he might give in.
"this is ridiculous. you're going to make fun of me."
you shake your head, desperate to prove the sincerity.
"i won't. i know you'll do great."
he lets out a defeated sigh before getting up with a "fine" and sees the biggest smile of the night on you.
"but you owe me something in return, too." he points finger and you wave it off.
"sure..." pulling your phone out, you look up to ask, "so what song?"
"uh... exo... overdose?" it's been a while to be fair, and san usually isn't one to hold things in memories, no matter the importance. short term or long term.
the song starts and he nods to the music, a few movements here and there trying to recall but he's struggling a bit, you can tell, unable to help the giggle that comes out because the sight is endearing.
"skip to the chorus."
and you do, eyes trained on him without detracting and watching as the recollection seems to creep up, his execution still a little jumbled and he doesn't look like he's 100% confident, but you know you've never seen anyone moved like that in your lifetime.
not that you know anything about dancing or whatever, but you've definitely never met a dancer, so to see someone work their body and move it so effortlessly, you're impressed for sure.
san doesn't even realize the chorus's over until you start clapping, the muscle memory just naturally leading him to the next beat.
it's been a while since he's moved like that and the sense of comfort that comes from it is weird, but welcoming in a way. it was quite fun, he thinks.
you're still clapping when he sits down again, the thin smile on you eventually turning into something more.
"you said you're rusty but you did so good! you even remembered it!"
"bleh," he dismisses, detaching from your gaze to stare out at the emptiness in front, "just muscle memory."
your next set of compliments blurs into muffled voices for him at the same time conflicts run round in his head, snapped back when you bring up, "want to stay over? yuna said she won't be back until morning."
it's the longest he ever takes to say a short and breathless, "yeah..." walking back with you to the dorms but feeling like a completely different person, it's frightening the way he just flip flops emotions, it raises the hair at the back of your neck from what you thought was a harmless and even entertaining situation.
but san seems to have taken it otherwise because the silence is anything but comforting, you fear this is it.
you unlock the door and settle your things first, your shoulder just barely angled his way when san annouces he's going to take a shower.
when you imagined the end, you think of a screaming match; at each other's throats and just absolutely the ugliest way possible. but this just might be worse... it's always worse when it comes unexpected.
but unexpected is such a loose term at this rate, because between you and san, there is so much hurt and so many unspoken wounds beyond repair from all the chasing.
you're so broken and san is not good for you, but for your own selfish desire, you wish he would stay, even if for one more night.
when you're near asleep from all the waiting, your heavy eyes failing to keep focus on the wall, the sound of the door creaking followed by footsteps until his chest is against your back gives you the biggest sign of relief, it's quite pathetic.
that he's going to stay and whatever came over him was just momentarily and you're all too good at overthinking.
you let sleep take over, hopeful that when you wake up, he will still be next to you.
~
san thinks that if you ever allowed yourself to think you're worse than him even once, you're absolutely out of your mind--which, you are, because he don't doubt you've thought of it.
you're quite skilled at leading the fault back to your own.
but if you're the one to pull the gun out, he would be the one to pull the trigger. and if you were to ever commit a crime, he would be the mastermind behind it.
if you're selfish, he will always be more selfish than you.
when he gets so much more than what he bargains for, coming to the realization over and over again that it's not good to recognize your touch and lose himself in your smile, he wants to run again. the way he always does.
it's how he handles unwanted emotions and practically anything not on his fucking list.
he will start something on impulse and trying to make up to you was definitely that, and it will end the same way.
he started this with you for all the wrong reasons and now, it's way past the due date.
~
you wake to very little light in the room, tossing lightly to gain your conscious, but heart suddenly dropping when you can sense the cool air of nothingness gliding against your back.
back that you thought would've been protected by a certain boy. but when you finally turn around, the worst pain yet hits you right in the face.
the space next to you is empty, and all there's left of san is a note taped to the side of the nightstand that you can only faintly see, but know every letter to.
'i'm sorry'

YANDERE TANJIRO KAMADO HEADCANONS
Tumblr media
Don't get fooled by his innocent look because beneath that innocent pure cinnamon roll exterior lies a hidden side, a part of him that's obsessive, possessive and lovestruck to the core along with being completely DELUSIONAL to the point where he doesn't even feel like there's something wrong with his feelings. You need to hand it to him though, he's quite the dedicated one indeed and from the very moment your eyes met, he's already devoted his heart, mind and soul to you, his precious beloved. He views you as a precious innocent angel that needs to be kept safe from the toxicity and darkness of the world and he's more than happy to be your protector and provider
He's actually good at masking his real intentions and yandere tendencies for you. In fact, he hides it so well that people won't even realize from the first look that he's so obsessed and possessive of you but his sister Nezuko knows all about his obsessive feelings of love for you, yet she won't really do anything about it other than encouraging her dear brother to pursue the love of his life. Both siblings are delusional to the core and congratulations, you have his equally possessive and obsessive sister who wants to keep you safe for her brother's sake after you
He takes the role of your caretaker VERY seriously, he does not want your health deteriorating or you suffering from any complications. He's taken the time and liberty of stalking the living HELL out of you and when he found out about your irregular sleep schedule, needless to say he was less than pleased. He realizes you really aren't capable of taking care of yourself which fuels his desire to take care of you even more. He's like a fussy mother hen always concerned and worried for you whenever you get hurt even in the slightest. The other day you accidentally received a paper cut and he was tempted to ensure you stay away from paper completely as he kept fussing about your little cut for hours and hours. He doesn't like seeing you in pain, when you're in pain, he's in pain. He feels like his heart is getting wrenched and someone dug a sharp blade into his heart, as an overwhelming amount of tender love and affections flows for you in his tender heart whenever you get hurt as he comforts you
He loves seeing that bright beautiful smile of yours and wants to ensure your happiness. With him. Where you belong. He'll buy small gifts for you such as your favorite flower, your favorite candy and such and give them to you with a sweet smile on his face, you won't even suspect how long he's stalked you for and how he's managed to find out these things without you ever telling them to him. He's very observant too and notices every single new detail about you. He can probably draw a freaking portrait of you with his eyes closed since he's memorized every inch and every part of your beautiful ethereal heavenly features. HIs mind is occupied with thoughts of you as he dreams about the happy and blissful life you both would have with each other after he brings you home with him and marries you
He's also quite the paranoid yandere, his fear of losing you to someone or losing you in a fight against a demon would send his concern and worry for you into overdrive and he feels the need to take you 'home' as in kidnap you, sooner than expected. Whatever do you want to be a Hashira for? There's no need for you to fight against those dangerous demons when he's around to take care of you and protect you. Your safety is of the utmost importance to him and that is something he will NOT compromise on at any cost. He admires your bravery and strength to save people but he doesn't want you facing the risk of you losing your life in the process. At times he might have to even keep you in the dark regarding a few missions but it's all for your own good in his opinion
He's good at masking his true intentions and feelings when he's around you and other people. He might look calm and friendly and collected on the outside when you're speaking to your so called friends but he's SEETHING inside as he has a fake plastered smile on his face. His hand is just ITCHING to slap your friend and throttle them for daring to steal your attention away from him, he feels like they're doing it deliberately just to drive a wedge and distance you from him. Deep down he's slightly worried that your friend might charm you too much and steal you away from him which is something he cannot allow to happen. He might not resort to killing the person off, but the next time there's a demon around the area, Tanjiro might not be able to save your 'friend' in time. Of course you wouldn't know that he's also asked the demon to TARGET your friend but that's a different story altogether. The only person he trusts to be around you is Nezuko
His love for you is like a passionate growing flame and your every touch is like a drug he can't get enough of. He needs you, he wants you. He needs you in a way like a drowning man needing air, he feels like he wouldn't be able to live without you. His family was killed by Muzan and he can't afford to let you fall in danger as well, he can't lose you. You're his world, the light of his life, his SOULMATE. His feelings for you would just keep getting worse and worse and finally it would lead to him ending up kidnapping you at some point in the night when you're asleep in your house. You'll wake up in Tanjiro's house on a bed with Nezuko looking at you with a curious look as she lets out a happy noise that you're awake and she'll alert her brother. "Oh, good morning darling, how did you sleep?" asked Tanjiro as you stared at him and blinked in disbelief, unable to comprehend what the hell was even going on at the moment. When you asked Tanjiro what was going on, he just let out a soft smile and told you the truth of how he took you in the night for himself and how he was going to protect you. Please don't scream or cry, he'll feel sad and he feels a sharp pang of hurt in his chest to see you upset. He doesn't like seeing you sad. He knows it's a big change and you'll need some time to adjust, he's understanding and willing to let you take as much time as you need to adjust to your new life and your new home with him and his sister. But one thing is for sure, he does NOT feel guilty at all, not even a single ounce of remorse because the way he sees it, he's keeping you safe. He's protecting you, that's what he tells himself every time and that opinion of his clouded his sense of rationality. Is it so wrong to protect someone you love?
There's no point in escaping from him, he'll just track you down and bring you back to the house. Scream, cry and insult him as much as you want, he'll just put you down on the couch and check you for injuries. He feels like the reason you ran away from him is because you didn't feel loved enough from him and he didn't shower you with love before but don't worry, he'll smother you with his affection now and cling to you like moss below a rock you'll barely have any time for yourself. Nezuko might like your head pats and likes hugging you but she wants her brother to be happy too which is why she'll side with him no matter what and prevent any means of you escaping from them. She likes it when you braid her hair and Tanjiro has a soft smile when he sees you and his sister interact with each other which is an adorable scene in his eyes
You're not to step into the kitchen for cooking either, the house is most probably baby proofed as well. He just doesn't want you getting hurt, the kitchen is a dangerous place, he doesn't want you cutting yourself accidentally with one of those sharp knives or burning yourself with the stove. He'll cook for you instead, you don't need to lift a finger when you're with him. Just let him take care of you and spoil you

This is me, the Lamikkaku anon. You wanted to hear more so here it is:
Firstly, I wanted to talk about how Lami survived. Basically she ran from the hospidal looking for Law and was found by marines. Luckily Vice admiral Tsuru was there, and feeling compassion towards the girl she took her in and decided to help her. Thanks to Tsuru washing Lami with her devil fruit the white amber lead desease isn't deadly anymore but its still a persistent/chronic illness and Lami has to be washed very often. This is kept as a secret only she and Tsuru know.
So she grows up in the marines, she isn't too fond of them and dislikes the goverment for obvious reasons but she has no where else to go and reconises Tsuru as a good person. I think she knows who Corasan is. She never met him since he was already with Doflamingo by the time she was rescued, by Sengoku must have went on and on about his kid and how great he is. Until, you know, the deranged gay bird kills him.
When Lami is a older she hears about this piraye named Trafalgar Law and immediately reconises him. She can't say anything of course because he is a pirate and she is a marine, but it gives Lami some hope. Eventually she joins SWORD and decides that she will at least try to meet her brother. She appears on Dressrosa but since shit gets really bad she is too occupied to talk to Law, but she manages to listen to Law and Sengoku's conversation.
Eventually she decides to join XDrake as a spy in Kaidou's beast pirates because she heard about the ninja-pirate-mink-samurai alliance and once Law gets there they reunite. There is tears, catching up, and Law uses his powers to finally get rid of Lami's amber lead desease so she isn't 100% dipendednt from Tsuru's powers anymore.
She helps during the raid and really bonds with the Hearts: she thinks that Bepo is adorable, finds Pemguin and Shachi to be humorous but the one she likes the company the most if is Ikkaku. She leaves with them instead of going back to the marines after the raid.
But of course, Blackbeard has to be an asshole and now Law is separated from his sister again. HOWEVER all of the hearts survived (if this isn't canon I will explode) and they ended up is some uncharted island were they try their best to trive and build a raft or something. All of their equipment got destroyed.
Its around this time that Lami and Ikkaku grow very close, and eventually it just blossoms into a full on romance. The others are worried Law might freak out but Ikkaku reassures them that she is, in fact, the only person here worthy of dating the captain's sister.
Okay, first of all, I love your brain. I want to open your skull and idk, grab a straw and drink from it. This is altering my brain chemistry- Okay. AAAAAAAAAAAA. I have so many thoughts. (The first post about this if somebody is interested).
I absolutely love everything about this. It's such a good way to make Lami survive. She joins the Marines but she doesn't actually wanna be there, it's just her way of surviving. But still, she manages to be one of the good marines. In fact, joining SWORD also means she probably meets Koby/Hibari/Helmeppo and I can't stop thinking about them actually getting along pretty well? When she finds out Law is alive and she decides to go undercover too to see him, the only people who know about her true reasons are those three. I just find it cute. Luffy's biggest fan (Koby) and Law's biggest fan (Lami) being friends is something really funny to me.
When they see each other again in Wano, Law can't believe it. For a whole second, he actually believes he's getting tricked somehow. It has to be some devil fruit user or- Or maybe he's losing his mind. The heart pirates don't know what's going on, but Law stands there, astonished and static and about to cry. When he never, ever cries in front of anybody that isn't Bepo (or Shachi/Penguin/Ikkaku but that's if his mental state is on the verge of collapsing even more than usual). Long story short, there's no time to explain everything but Lami tells him the important things and decides she's going to stay with him. The girl doesn't even care about whether she's a marine or not, she just breaks the cover and goes "well, change of titles now. Brother, I am going with you" and tbh Law doesn't find it appropriate. He doesn't want his little sister to be a pirate. He wants her to have a normal life and live in peace the way she deserves. But she reminds him that she's (was) a marine. She's strong. She can fight and she will fight, whether he likes it or not. And look, she's always been cute and cheerful but now she's also stubborn, so he can't say no to her. Besides, having her in the crew also means having her close, so that's a win for him. It'll be easier to keep her safe like that (even if she can actually fight on her own).
And let me tell you. Her dynamic with the Heart Pirates is amazing.
Everybody loves her and they seriously question if she's truly Law's sister because she is... So different from him. She's sweet and fun and upbeat and everyone is side-eying Law like "Are you sure this girl isn't like... mistaking you for another person?" and Law is about to cut Shachi and Penguin in half if they don't shut up about that. She loves Bepo. She adores him. Bepo loves her back. She won't let go of him. They're best friends now and she considers him to be the most adorable thing on earth. Also, she trusts him with her life since he's Law's first mate and that means Law trusts him too. Law thinks he's going to have a heart attack because he doesn't know if he loves this situation (his favorite people together) or if he hates it (what if they like being together more??? Without him???? He's a bit jealous). Lami also loves Shachi and Penguin. They love her back. Law hates it because they're even more chaotic together and they won't stop being touchy with his sister (not in a weird way, they're just a very affectionate crew and Lami loves hugging them back). Lami indulges them and follows them in everything they do and Law is so, so tired. He keeps telling them to stop acting like that but Shachi and Penguin always say "But you never hug us back!!" / "Yeah, captain! She's sweeter and cuter and way nicer!" and Law is about to lose it. The only one that doesn't make Law furious is Ikkaku, surprisingly so. Ikkaku is just so nice and fun to be around that Lami loves her right away. She has never had actual friends outside the Marines and she's so excited to start this new life with them! Ikkaku shows her around the ship and explains every little thing to her, and Lami is so, so thrilled to finally be free of everything that was holding her back. The thing is-- Lami feels guilty for what happened because she thinks she could've saved Law somehow or- Or maybe met him earlier than this. She doesn't want to tell him because she knows it will only hurt him, so she opens up to Ikkaku instead, and she's the one to comfort her and understand her better. Lami also asks Ikkaku to tell her about Law and what kind of person he is now. What kind of adventures they've had. Ikkaku and Lami grow closer and closer and they're the girls™ of the crew. Also, Lami is a very lesbian disaster and Ikkaku is also a lesbian mess, so Ikkaku flirts with her shamelessly, and Lami blushes and giggles and kicks her feet. While Lami flirts with Ikkaku without even noticing, and Ikkaku faints every time. Shachi and Penguin have a bet going on about them.
Not to mention that everybody is weirded out by Law's behavior now. Now that Lami is back in his life, he looks... Happier? He smiles more. Like. Actual laughs and smiles. He's so sweet and protective when it comes to Lami it's just odd to see him like that. He kisses her forehead and hugs her and whenever she's playful and teases him, he actually laughs and has fun. Bepo is like "Oh, true, you haven't seen captain like this, right? Isn't he cute?" when the Strawhats see this, and they're all like "More than cute it's just... Unsettling". Honestly, the heart pirates couldn't be happier for their captain. Talking about the Strawhats: Since they're all in Wano and Lami is helping them out, she meets them there. And I think, since Lami and Koby are friends, that she would instantly love and admire Luffy. The whole crew would again be saying "Is this seriously your sister, Torao?" and she'd go "Torao?? They call you Torao??" / "No. They don't. Don't give her ideas-" / "It's okay, Torao-" / "Fuck". And now Law is having the worst time of his life because Luffy and Lami get along and he's starting to lose it. But, anyway, they're happy, so whatever. He's just glad she's alright.
And this has nothing to do with Lamikkaku but I think Lami is religious (I think it's pretty obvious, like, the religious background in Law's story). After everything fucked up that happened to them, Law stopped believing for obvious reasons. But Lami sometimes prays and talks about God and fate and Law is very against that because "If God exists, why would he let this happen to us? If somebody as powerful as that makes us go through this suffering, I don't think it deserves to be worshipped" and Lami just smiles softly and says: "I can see your view. But still, believing isn't accepting everything God does. I guess it's dumb, isn't it? But I like to think Mom and Dad are in a better place now. I like to think that you'll be in a better place if they take you away from me again" and Law can't fight against that. Then, Luffy Gear 5th happens and Law has a whole catholic crisis. But that's for another day. Make this Lawlu if you feel like it. The point is Nika my beloved-
Now, Lamikkaku moment:
They survive the fight against Blackbeard. All of them. Except for the Polar Tang (RIP, you were an amazing ship, darling). So they end up on a deserted island and... Things are bad. They're all devastated. The first thing Law does is look for Lami to check if she's alright. And she is, kind of. They're all glad they're fine, but they've lost their ship. Their equipment. Their food. And instead of resting and thinking about it, Law is already trying to plan something to escape from here, feeling responsible and guilty and-- Both Lami and Bepo are the most concerned, but they're all going through a rough time. While they get back on their feet, Ikkaku and Lami get even closer. Lami is close to Law constantly because she's pretty much the only person that he can open up to and rest with whenever he's overworking himself. He only sleeps when she's around. Etc etc. But Lami can't deal with all of that on her own and it's obvious, so it's Ikkaku the one looking after her. Lami won't lose faith in God for this, but she's still pretty frustrated that something like this has happened to them again. Ikkaku tells her that sometimes is the people around you you have to rely on and not just God, even if it does help most of the time to believe in something like that. They spend most of their time together. Sleep together. Lami has nightmares and Ikkaku helps. Ikkaku is trying her best to cheer up the crew along with Shachi and Penguin but it's hard, and she's working hard to maintain the order too. Lami admires her strength because she hasn't seen her falter or hesitate yet in the time they've been there, and Ikkaku just says that it's what a pirate does. Get back on their feet and fight. And besides, if the crew needs somebody to rely on while their captain is busy/going through it, she doesn't mind being the voice of the reason. And Ikkaku is not a Goddess, but Lami is starting to feel the same trust and comfort she feels when praying while she's next to her. One thing leads to another and they end up falling for each other rather quickly. They don't want to tell Law yet, because he's... Not ready for news. But Bepo/Shachi/Penguin find out at some point and they're sure Law is going to be furious (because he won't let any of them go near Lami romantically) but Ikkaku is sure it won't happen. She's sure Law will be happy for them. First of all, because Lami keeps saying Law only wants the best for her and would never go against that. And second of all, because Ikkaku says that if Law ever had to let somebody date his sister, it would be Ikkaku. Law ends up finding out because, you know, these three can't keep their mouth shut. And he surprisingly doesn't care. In fact, in a moment of desperation, it makes him so happy to see his sister finding love. He tells Ikkaku in private to take care of her, and she only smiles and says "Aye, captain" and Lami overhears, so she ends up hugging him right after.
They're clingy but their presence and PDA aren't annoying. It's just sweet. They hold hands and kiss and they keep teasing each other, and it brings a new energy to the crew. It gives Law hope. If Lami has managed to come back, they'll be able to come back stronger too. Of course, they're a bit chaotic too since they're pretty different to Law, but it's alright. As time passes by, Ikkaku ends up teasing Law about it and she can't help but make the 'I fucked your sister' jokes because, c'mon, how could she not? Lami finds it hilarious, and she knows Law isn't really that angry at Ikkaku at the end of the day. Ikkaku seems like the cool, protective one, but in reality, whenever there's a fight and people underestimate Lami, Ikkaku just stares at her like "That's my girl <3" while she kicks ass. Basically, they're the cutest, most supportive girls, and Law just knows Cora is happy for them too.

Okay I just want to dump my Magoranza headcanons because of another post I saw, even though I should definitely sleeping right now ( ̄ヘ ̄;)
Okay, so my headcanons are more pre-relationship based but I still want to share them so badly ( ꈍᴗꈍ)
Additional note: I repeat a lot "Magolor" and "Taranza" instead of using stuff like "the mage" and "the spider" and other stuff, so yeah, I apologize for the repetitions, I might edit it later to fix that.
☬ I kinda imagine they have a "A fell first and B fell harder" kind of situation lmao.
☬ Magolor first seeing Taranza around, and noticing he always looked miserable in a way (it would happen not long after the events of triple deluxe). So he decides to approach him and go "Hey, wanna hang out ? (^-^)" which Taranza accepts because Magolor gives him an excuse to occupy his mind.
☬ Magolor only asked Taranza to spent time together out of pity for him, but soon come to appreciate his company because not only is Taranza pretty smart and helpful, but he can be pretty mischievous despite his seemingly calm attitude. So obviously Magolor keeps him around because he could always use some help with his shoppe and with his research on the Lor.
☬ And sure, they both share similar interests, and they get along pretty well, and Magolor even allows Taranza to sit on the roof of his shoppe and only him, but that doesn't mean they're close ! And the fact that he is impressed by Taranza's knowledge doesn't mean anything either, and neither the fact that Magolor wants to spend more time with him, or that he thinks it's cute how clumsy Taranza can be, or when he re-do his hair from time to time, and sure, Taranza definitely looks so fine with that new scarf-
☬ And before he knows it, Magolor fell in love with the spider.
☬ His first reaction is to hit his head against the table upon realization. How did that happen ?! WHEN DID THAT HAPPEN ?
☬ After a few minutes, he calms down, and just moves on. It's not the end of the world, right ? No need to act weirdly about it.
☬ Though, after he realizes his feelings, Magolor will act a bit differently with Taranza. No big changes, it's pretty subtle actually. Offers discount at his shoppe and on some days even offer some items "because it wouldn't sell"; taking an interest in some of Taranza's hobbies he didn't share with him previously "because seems interesting"; and even studying some of Floralia's culture "in case one day I want to visit so I can be prepared".
☬ He would sometimes flirt a bit but quickly brush it off as a joke, and with his prankster personality, Taranza just rolls with it.
☬ As for Taranza, he doesn't see Magolor as anything other than a friend for a while. Like I said earlier, he would just see Magolor as a way too think about something other than Sectonia's death. But quickly comes to appreciate Magolor as a friend, despite his tendancies to make off putting jokes and being a bit apathetic.
☬ He sees Magolor as a smart person, not only for all the researches he does, but for his projects too like the attraction park he made for Kirby, and his business with the shoppe. And he's fun too, always knows what to do when they hangs out, which Taranza appreciate a lot. It's like a breath of fresh air compared to the strict ambiance in the castle of Floralia. And he finds fascinating all of the tales Magolor has about other dimensions, or about Halcandra.
☬ For a while, he doesn't really notices Magolor's flirting, mainly because he only sees him as a friend, but also because he still feel like he can't completely moves on from Sectonia. When he thinks of love, the first thing he thinks about is her, his dear Queen.
☬ It's not until someone else points it out (either Susie or Marx) that Magolor acts differently with him compared to everyone else (Marx would probably complains about the free stuff Taranza gets, while Susie would points out how Magolor took a sudden interests on things related to him) that Taranza starts noticing this too. And he also notice how Magolor only "jokingly" flirt only with him.
☬ Boi does that spider gets flustered.
☬ Taranza spends the following few days questioning if Magolor really likes him like that, and how he feels about it.
☬ And for the first time, he start thinking of romantic love without thinking about Sectonia, but about Magolor instead. And he likes it (even if a part of him feels guilty about it).
☬ After a few more days after he realizes that he might be in love with Magolor, Taranza starts making moves on him too, a bit less subtly though.
☬ If he gets the occasion, he buys and gift him all kinds of stuff, be it something Magolor took an interest of while walking in around in the waddle Dee's town, or something related to his interests, or it could even be something related to his research (or something Taranza at least thinks is related to his interests). Most of the time, the gifts are pretty spontaneous.
☬ Magolor would joke about how Taranza is spoiling him, and Taranza would laugh it off, albeit extremely flustered.
☬ He would also do all kinds of favours to Magolor, helping more around the shoppe more than usual, and proposing more help with his researches.
☬ Magolor does notice the sudden change of behavior in Taranza, how he suddenly seems more nervous and flustered easily, and how he seems more clumsy while helping sometimes. He decides not to question it, though. It's kinda endearing to see, after all.
☬ It kinda goes on like that for a while, the two just flirting with each other without much else going on after, and it's this kind of awkward phase between friendship and romance where the both don't know where they stand at this point.
☬ Until one day, Kirby asks them if they are a couple. Magolor starts chuckling while Taranza starts choking on air.
☬ Magolor teasingly asks Taranza "Well, wouldn't we make a cute couple ?" which flusters Taranza A LOT.
☬ After a few seconds of trying to calm down enough to talk, Taranza reply "Maybe we would, don't you think so too ?" which ends up flustering Magolor back.
☬ And all the while Kirby is looking at them like "What the heck is going on ? (◍•ᴗ•◍)"
Anyway, that's also how they ended up together. BYE-

You pretended you couldn't feel Rooster staring at you from across the room.
You pretended you couldn't see the longingness in his eyes, as you laughed with Bob or joked around with Hangman.
You also pretended you don't think that he's your soulmate.
The past few days has been rough on you, the mental exhaustion evident on your face as the light from the Hard Deck illuminates your face.
"Robby, what brings you here?" You looked over your shoulder, leaning against your car that is parked infront of Hard Deck.
"I know what you're thinking, y/n/n."
You raised one eyebrow, "Care to be specific? I'm thinking 'bout millions of things, Robby." You chuckled, he neared you until he's next to you, leaning against your car.
"I know that you think he is the one." Bob answered, looking at the night sky. You stilled, damn, you couldn't really hide anything from him. Bob already memorized your actions, feelings, and thoughts like the back of his hand.
It's not like you're not the same to him, you know what he wants you to do before he can even say it out loud.
"You want me to test it out." You stated, which made Bob look at you and smile. "Who knows?" You closed your eyes and drew in a breath, a shaky sigh leaving your lips.
"I'm scared."
Bob reached for your hand and gave a comforting squeeze, urging you to continue. "Why?"
"What if he isn't the one? I'd feel like I'm betraying my soulmate because of my feelings for him, Robby." You looked down as Bob widened his eyes, "So you admit you like him?"
"Yes. I do like him, but he probably doesnt' like me." You confirmed as bob shaked his head, telling you that Rooster doesn't dislike you. He needs to talk to Pheonix about this later.
"As long as ypur soulmate isn't Bagman then they're okay to me." His statement earned a chuckle from you, but a thought crossed over your head which dampened your lightening mood.
"And with the Uranium mission coming up.. If I ever get picked for it, will I even come back alive? Will I ever come back at all?" You asked yourself, fear evident in your eyes.
"I want to meet my soulmate before I leave for the mission, I might never come back, Robby. Just once and I will be happy." You looked away. Bob knows exactly what you mean as he shaked his head.
"We will come home safe." Bob stated, as he gripped your hand and made eye contact with you. You could feel him determined, and somehow, his words bring you a sense of comfort.
Tumblr media
"So hot." You moaned, fanning yourself with your hands. Jake who coincidentally walks past you, winked. "Thanks sweetheart." You made a disgusted face at him.
"What the.. I was talking about the weather. Shut your trap statefarm or else I'll make you eat sand." You shaked your head as he laughed, walking away. "That damn mouth of his, I swear." You grabbed your sunglasses as you sat at one of the beach chairs.
"Mind if I sit here?" You heard someone asked.
Looking over your shoulder, you repsonded "Sure, whatever. Don't think it's occupied anyway." Rooster looked at you for a long while and sighed, "Look, I'm sorry for ignoring yo-"
"Rooster, I forgive you. Let's just put it behind us, yeah? I'm sure you have your reasons." You mumbled.
"It still doesn't give me the the right to be a douche." He shaked his head, being sincere.
"Sorry about Hangman too, he's a fucking asshole, I know." You added. You heard the chair creak as he sat beside you.
He tried to look at anything but you. But his eyes seemingly cannot do it, he's mesmerized. The fact that this is one of the few times he got to see you without your uniform or flight suit is doing things to him. It's not helping that the navy blue sports bra and white shorts are complimenting your body.
And you acted like you don't know he was checking you out.
"You don't need to apologize on the behalf of him. He's not your responsibility." He stated. You chuckled, "Well, I feel kinda responsible."
"You and Hangman are getting into fights recently, I heard that you got into a fight at Hard Deck." You looked at him.
Rooster drew in a breath. Did you know the reason why they fought? Has Hangman already brainwashed you that he's no good for you and that he's a player?
"I don't know what ypu guys fought about but from what I heard what happened it seems serious."
Rooster stilled for a moment, opening and closing his mouth. You don't know? It's a miracle it hasn't reached you yet, considering almost everyone knows about it now. Bob and Pheonix did a good job at keeping things seemingly under the wraps infront of you.
"Yeah, it is." He mumbled.
"Care to tell me about it?"
"Well.." Bradley hesitates, he doesn't know how.
"I don't bite. Lay it on me, dude." You grinned. Rooster sighed, "We fought because of a girl."
He noticed your smile faltered, or maybe that was just his imagination? Maybe he's just being delusional.
"And? What? He likes the girl and you like her too?" You tried to act like that it didn't affect you. But it did, it felt like someone stabbed you as you listen to Rooster talk about this girl that he's head over heels for.
You weren't dumb, you can see that Rooster is hopelessly in love.
"I like her, I think she's my soulmate."
Tears sprang onto your eyes as you try to keep your smile and voice steady, thank goodness you were wearing sunglasses. Rooster didn't seem to notice it.
"Oh really?"
"Yeah, but Hangman.. He doesn't like that idea."
You need to get out of here, you need to ne away from Rooster. Tears are threatening to spill from your eyes as you can feel your heart hurting.
"Oh, maverick's here.." Your voice cracked, before he can even ask what's wrong you were already jogging towards Bob and Pheonix.
Tumblr media
"Rooster, do you realize how fucking dumb are you?" Pheonix asked, glaring as the taller man looked away.
"So that's why she wasn't her usual self earlier in the beach.." Bob mumbled, Rooster asked "Wasn't she just down because she didn't win?"
Pheonix rolled her eyes as she face palmed. "Are you that dense Bradshaw? It's clear that she's painfully inlove with you! You think she's upset over the football? No! It's because you were talking like you have another girl in mind that you like!" She threw her hands up in the air, almost smacking Rooster in the face.
"You think so?.." he asked, looking down.
"That she's inlove with you and that you're dumb? Abso-fucking-lutely."
He wants to fucking believe it, he wants to think that you feel the same way to him. He wants to think that there's a chance you like him and think that he's your soulmate.
"You better figure this out before the mission, Rooster." Pheonix shakes her head. "Do you have any intel, Bob?"
Bob looked at Pheonix uneasily, "This will be the first and last time I'm going to snitch on her, Pheonix."
He knows that snitching on someone isn't good, but he could endure you being angry at him for a few days than not say it. He knows that this is going to be the important key to stop the misunderstandings between you and rooster.
"Yeah I know Bob, get on with it!" Pheonix turned to look at Rooster, making sure he's listening.
"She likes you, Rooster."
Rooster couldn't process it, he blinked a couple of times. "Hold on, one more time." He urged Bob to repeat what he said, maybe he just misheard.
"She's inlove with you, Rooster. She thinks that you're her soulmate."
Bradley Bradshaw couldn't believe it, his mouth opened as he asked a quite ridiculous question. "Are you sure?"
Bob sighed, shaking his head. Love makes people dumb, he thought. "Look man, if you don't believe me then I don't know what to tell you except for find it out yourself."
"Try to touch her subtly, like brush your hands against hers during class and stuff like that. See if your mark will glow." Pheonix suggested, Bradley hummed, considering it.
"What should I do if I find out we're soulmates?"
"I- Rooster, does Bob and I look like an instruction manual for how to deal with your soulmate?" Pheonix facepalmed.
"I was just asking..-"
"Well then it's a dumb question!"

Ngl I think cat!nancy definitely bullies puppy!Eddie, although I don’t think she realises that she’s like actually scaring him.
Eddie comes over to you with a big dumb smile on his face, his tail going a mile a minute. Nancy was napping on your lap, but she’s mewling a little grumpily into you (it’s silent, but you can feel in reverberating on your body), and wrapping her tail around your leg as soon as Eddie comes over, because he’s always loud and all over the place.
But then Eddie accidentally crushes her hand with his as he tries to climb over your lap in the small space Nancy isn’t occupying, and she immediately jumps up, which is scary enough for poor Eddie, but then she’s swiping at him, eyes like steel.
Especially if puppy!eddie is a crybaby, it gets to be a bit of a routine :((. But he really doesn’t mean to disturb Nancy, in fact, sometimes he’s even trying to play with her! Or be very friendly and loving with her bc Eddie’s affectionate, and that’s when she gets mad at him!
But Nancy also doesn’t actually want to make Eddie cry too. She doesn’t want to bully him, especially not bullying him into changing. He may be a big dumb overexcited puppy but he’s hers and your big dumb loveable puppy. She’ll pat his head if he apologises and she feels bad bc he rly doesn’t need to. And she’ll cuddle up with him when you’re gone, as she’s sighing because she’s waiting for you, because cat!nancy needs her warm surface to nap.
They really are friends. Eddie will get very tough and growl if someone tries something on Nancy. And she’ll defend him to death if anyone tries anything with him as well
cw: hybrid au with dog hybrid!eddie and cat hybrid!nancy. don't like don't read, or block the tag 'hybrid au' below. hybrid au faq
omg big tough dog hybrid!eddie who's hellbent on protecting nancy except he's so focused on looking out for her he doesn't realize she's already scaring away anyone who thinks about coming near the two of them LMAO
he's definitely just Too Much for her sometimes!! she does not want to entertain him 24/7 and he wants to be entertained by someone 24/7 so she has to dodge him or at least discourage him from messing with her, which, as you've theorized here, probably freaks him out sometimes
she probably can't ever fall asleep on him at first because he's so happy she's willingly hanging out with him that his tail keeps whacking her or the bed and making too much noise LMAO 😭

4-7 with all four of them <3 I love the long explanations
Tumblr media
what flower/plant do you associate with them?
dark red carnations. meaning devotion and a deep romantic love and passion. there her favourite flowers, seen by how many axl gets her as gifts. while the love meaning is sentimental for her, particularly the devotion part, she does just really love the colour <3
what part of their appearance do you associate with them the most?
probably with her eyes or her nose. both are very striking features that make her stand out. i feel like we don't see too many female characters with those features, especially her humped/crooked nose. i love how she contrasts with axl <3
what hobby do you associate with them?
flower pressing and other crafts related to it, almost like junk journalling. anything she can put on a piece of paper, some lyrics, flowers or even a sketch of axl sat on their balcony. there's a reason all her notebooks are falling apart. there are also her fixer nature that will often see her fixing old radios and even practical tasks like putting up shelves and painting walls.
what school subject do you associate with them?
physics or maths. they're were her favourite subjects at school but i think andy loves to problem solve, anytime she can fix something physically she will, so to put that practically in a subject makes her happy.
Tumblr media
what flower/plant do you associate with them?
i feel like i can't say anything but roses for him! but definitely traditionally red roses, the classic representation for romance and we all know axl is a traditional romantic. but also white for the connections to purity and virtue, things that occupy his thoughts a lot.
what part of their appearance do you associate with them the most?
i think for axl it's definitely his hair. it's such an iconic and striking feature of him that stands out to like everyone he comes in contact with. he also loves how it feels when andy brushes it and grabs onto it
what hobby do you associate with them?
does playing piano count? lol but as a hypothetical because he doesn't really have any hobbies at the moment, i think axl would enjoy quite a hands on hobby like mechanics and fixing up old cars and motorcycles or maybe even something like leather work
what school subject do you associate with them?
art probably, i know he spoke about his art teacher being one of the few he actually liked at school. i think he likes the freedom associated with it, especially when he can just be abstract and let his thoughts run wild.
Tumblr media
what flower/plant do you associate with them?
hmmm interesting. i like dahlias for yoko, normally representing beauty and commitment as well as perseverance due the fact they continue to survive even when other flowers have died in difficult conditions. also spider lilies <3
what part of their appearance do you associate with them the most?
yoko has quite a prominent top lip with a strong cupid's bow, making her look like she's already wearing some kind of lip stain. it's something she used to be quite self conscious about when she was in school.
what hobby do you associate with them?
cooking but like in the fancy chef way when she feels like it. being experimental with making fancy sushi platters or extravagant chocolate cakes. she's often giving out all the food she makes to others when she inevitably makes too much. she of course did dance and violin as a child/teenager but has fallen out of love with both.
what school subject do you associate with them?
see yoko really hates all school subjects but i think she probably enjoyed textiles the most. she's always loved fashion, even as a child and has a keen eye for sewing, it was one of the few subjects that she felt she had full control over, where she wasn't told what to do.
Tumblr media
what flower/plant do you associate with them?
this one was a bit more difficult, never really thought of this for duff but i feel like chrysanthemums are a good choice. normally being close to optimism and happiness, as well as long lasting friendships which suit him very well.
what part of their appearance do you associate with them the most?
again the hair <3 especially when it's kind of started to form in that cotton candy bleach damage texture as well as the two tone of his darker roots growing in the back.
what hobby do you associate with them?
it's a bit difficult to say at the moment considering his main go to is getting drunk to go out with friends but i feel like fitness and sports are something he can usually get behind as hobbies.
what school subject do you associate with them?
physical education/gym. we know he was quite a star at it until he heard the sex pistols for the first time but it's definitely a place where he could let loose and not have to worry too much about paying attention or anyone else.
thank you for asking xxx any other questions i'll be happy to answer <333

Kalmar's question of "How the fuck did you get in here?" is politely ignored. Mm, maybe not ignored, is there a better word? Something nicer? Something ah-? Set aside? No, no that's two words- Uh-
(See, it's not that he isn't allowed to know or that she wants to keep secret-secrets from him. It's just hard to explain the strange connection she'd made between mirrors and doors and eyes and how that seemed to have suddenly become true for her. Later. When she's less shaky-shaky and sleepy and he's not Looking at her like that.)
ANYWAY. Alice holds out the jar - half full, by the way! Isn't that nice? - hands shaking. She adjusts her grip. It's going to fall on the floor. It's going to burst like a well fed tick, and spray blood across the floor and up the walls...
Alice gives it a little shake, shows how fresh it still is. It licks up the sides of the jar and tints it thickly-sickly red. The smell of iron clinging to the lid makes her stomach hurt.
"Here-" Breathless. One short, unsteady step brings her close enough to shove it into his hands. "He----re you go~" Her hands pat at his, hovering to make sure he has a good and steady grip. Red and white, like slotting a heart between ribs, kinda sorta, if she's being Silly.
She should go now. But she doesn't. She nibbles on her finger. Remains rooted helplessly to the spot. She looks up at the ceiling and down at the floor, peeks briefly at Kalmar from under her hair. He's kinda blurry, haha, Weird!
@scxrytxles has a donation
There's a grey, dead undertone to Alice's skin. Her voice sounds flimsy, too-high, not all the way there. The all-too-familiar smell of blood clings to her, and her hands aren't any warmer than his as they fumble with the back of his palms.
The outside of the jar is not quite dry, covered in smudged, reddish fingerprints. It's solid and heavy and it would be very easy to let it slip out of his spindly fingers. For a moment, he almost wishes someone would drop it. He doesn't feel quite clean or correct taking it, not looking at her -- but, then, what else is new?
"That's very charitable of you," he manages, coaxing his face into a mild smile. Sets Alice's blood carefully down on Alice's dining table.
(What the hell is he going to do with this? It's not like he has any tasks-which-require-fresh-blood waiting -- he'd just have to try and store the energy, and Alice is so, um, eccentric that he finds himself wondering precisely what spending her Life might do to his casting.
He would prefer it not go to waste if he were her, though.)
"Though I would, uh. Prefer to discuss this sort of thing in advance, if it's happening," he hears himself say. "Preparation, yes?" Stupid, probably. Too close to suggesting that he'd be happy for this to happen again. Maybe it would be better if he'd said No, like a normal person --
He steps forward to plant a hand on each of her shoulders, steering her into the chair he was occupying before she, uh, got here. (There may be the slightest hint of necromantic suggestion winding out from his hands, gently encouraging -- not forcing -- her shaky limbs to follow along. He's not really thinking about it.) "You -- sit down. I'll get you, ah --"
"I will get some things. Stay there." She's not still bleeding, is she? Probably not. She wouldn't have wanted it just dripping on the floor, after all.
He sweeps off to the kitchen half of the room, opens the cupboard to find --
Dry spaghetti? Tinned pineapple? Ibuprofen? He did not, in fact, stock up on groceries.
Kalmar frowns, checks his pockets in case there's something there he forgot about. Finally snatches up the pineapple can, and glares at it until it splits open along the side, draining the Juice or perhaps Syrup it is Preserved In into a glass.
This he sets in front of Alice, clnk. Wrenches the Jar open on the third try, finger-paints a sigil on the side of the glass -- he doesn't know if this does anything, but they can at least act like he can give some of it back -- and nudges it half an inch closer to her. "You should drink that first," he says. "--Uh, presuming you're not allergic."

NXT World's Collide - Initial Thoughts
Tumblr media
Now to part 2 of 3
In NXT UK's last hurrah before taking a hiatus and becoming NXT Europe, what remains of the UK roster are to be integrated into the normal NXT, including their titles. The World's Collide event sees NXT UK cross NXT in battle in our second PPV of the Weekend, All Out will be (somehow) fitted in tomorrow
Spoilers for the PPV
No matches for the Kick-Off, bit remiss given how it's only a small card
Starting with NA title with Pretty Ricky, but Melo with the hanged jerseys mind games, Sikoa among the shirts, Melo has the NA title decal on his knee pad too
The two are very clean in their wrestling, a great double springboard cutter to cancel each other out popped the crowd
Also Stu Bennett has been great on commentary
Melo wasn't sneaky leaving his foot out for Trick to pull like half an inch XD
Good match, probably could've benefitted from story, Trick did bide Melo time but it was the paul smackage when Ricochet landed on his feet for the Shooting Star Press
Oh, so Roddy's dead
There are a lot of bodies for this four way
Ahhh Briggs and Jensen eliminated first by Gallus, so much for the NXT UK Tag Champions
That alliance between PD and Gallus didn't last
Creeds then eliminate Gallus, who don't leave quietly
Julius' hot tag was great
The eliminated teams are fighting in the ramp for some reason which leads to a le sigh ref bump
Kemp then of course uses this to turn on the Creeds
Urgh they had to go with the Zoolander Twins, where was Brutus throughout all of this?
The same promos from Clash are on NXT, does WWE think that we don't watch both?
Tony D'Angelo trying to validate the fact that he lost LDF doesn't work, but he looks to be trying to side with Cameron Grimes who blows him off
You make Meiko come out first!?
Bit too much smoke for Bea/Blair
Mandy arrives in a...car? Sporting USA attire
Someone is screaming far too much
Yeah that list doesn't do Mandy favours
Reminder that Meiko is 42 years old and still amazing
Bit dumb though to wait for Mandy to pose and not take advantage of it
Mandy's gear seems to be struggling to contain her girls
KAMIGOYE! Only 2
Of course the fickleness of American crowds that they will cheer anyone American against non-Americans
And Rose *URGH* wins, Meiko hits the Scorpion Rising on Blair and after having to set her up, Rose hits both with the running knee
I am absolutely fucking baffled that between Bea Preistley and MEIKO SATOMURA, WWE choose Mandy Fucking Rose to still be their champion
Why do I even bother? They made her beat Raquel, KLR and Io after all, I just expected the better wrestler to win
They moved Axiom vs Nathan Frazer to Wednesday :/
Just be Nikki Cross and Piper Niven already!
First to challenge all active women's championships but won nothing in NXT
Chance is literally so mini compared to Doudrop XD
Toxic Attraction make a distraction which occupied Nikki so that KC2 can beat Piper, even though Piper proved able to handle both women previously in the match
That's 3/4 interferences btw, plus Nikki could've made it, weak match really
Main Roster bias made the tag champs look weak as it is
The Dyad are just weird, why couldn't we have the Grizzled Young Vets?
Still not sure how I feel about Bate with the long Jesus hair
Of course my internet chooses the main event to start blipping out and killing the vid quality, I've seen the buffer bar longer than I saw Bate's entrance
Never been done? Titles have been unified from two different brands and even companies for like decades
Bronn's shoulder was well up from that Airplane Spin slam
Bronn kicks out of the Tyler Driver 97 but Bate gets to the ropes for the Gorilla Powerslam
Bate forgoes the second Tyler Driver attempt to try his rebound Shotei and runs into a spear to lose
Least Tyson Fury didn't come out to sing American Pie, but again it was just, fine? I guess I never quite bought that NXT would give it to Bate
There's something missing as well, I can't quite explain it but it's like that buzz in my chest that makes me into it, Bate and Bronn are great workers, but I feel like they could've done a lot more
Conclusion
Honestly, I would've rather slept. The opener was good but after that it was just a snowball of weak booking choices, I get you wanna make it feel evens but the fact that Pretty Deadly and Mandy became unified champions in succession then postponed a potential best of 3 banger between Ben Carter and A-Kid shows the mentality NXT 2.0 has at play, thew Vince-ism is still there, right down to the 'home team' bias.
I also hope that the NXT UK belts aren't gone, they are WWE's best looking belts, and if they are gone I will happily take the UK title for myself if they name a price.
Overall it was fine, somehow didn't top Clash at the Castle, ball's in All Out's court now. Now I have to have 5 hours sleep...

THE ART OF ARTURO MENDOZA
in a dream-like state, arturo mendoza laid out on a beach towel atop the sandy shores, a joint assembly of stars delicately pressing against his eyelids — in actuality that'd only begun in the midst of his unconscious reverie, as he had vehement daylight beaming down on him. he'd drifted off to sleep the night before, where memory past that eluded him. his drowsy gaze flit around his surroundings, and the lingering tinge of sangria on his tongue hit him right as a splash of water did.
he'd be lying through his teeth if he said the figure before him did not appear to be an angel at the entrance of the pearly-white gates leading to unworldly sights. perhaps even heaven. after arturo ran his fingers through his drenched curls (matted hair), then shook his body like a wet dog outside in the rain, the figure began clear. a few slow blinks later and they are recognized to be the one person he knows like the back of his hand.
god, clario, he sighed in a wistful manner. i could recognize that face anywhere.
a familiar flush rises to said person's cheeks, the accentuating dewy-freckles scattered raindrops complementing her appearance. regardless of the fact that arturo has absolutely — as well as frequently — uttered more intimate things to her in hushed, breathless tones, the observable effect on her is constant. the intensity and bluntness of arturo's words doesn't at all go unnoticed by her. not ever.
she cradles a surfboard beneath her arm as she grins broadly, dimples evident. there's a faint  redness in her forest green doe-eyes that alarms arturo in that moment, his pierced eyebrows raising in response. he stands up immediately — the soft towel that was draped over him tangled up at his waist — and towers over her like a small-scale skyscraper.
she, clairo alvarez, is an artist with a knack for finding that spark in life that creates a rush. an adventurous sort of nature, perhaps. she sets the board against an illuminated sign planted in the sand before she inhales, exhales.
her breath hitches in her throat once arturo is face-to-face with her, attentively looking in her eyes, seemingly trying to find something. when he doesn't do such thing, he allows for each and every one of his feelings to engulf him, warmth occupying his entirety whilst he wraps his arms around her smaller form and says, azúcar, what exactly happened mast night?
a momentary flicker of sadness passes in her eyes before the usual light takes over. she holds onto his bulky arms and squeezes slightly, his affection comforting. in spanish, she murmurs, muchas cosas — when translated back to english: many things. it wasn't yet too late when we left home. we were drinking sangria on the floor of your apartment for a long while. but eventually, we stopped talking to one another about nonsensical things when you said that you craved to go on a spontaneous midnight adventure. not surprisingly, i agreed without a hitch. i would've let you lead me to anywhere, as i trail behind you. like that one quote: 'don't go anywhere i cannot follow.'
he sighs, yeah . . . you're a bit crazy, huh?
she quips, for you, apparently so, and pecks him on the lips, grinning profusely. in that moment, both of their heartbeats are battering drums. but we came here, disheveled and groggy drunk. you fell asleep but i stayed. tried to wake you up, never worked. heavy ass sleeper. . . but anyways, i fell asleep next to you, head on your chest. you woke up once before that, told me you loved me, pulled me closer. the more she speaks, the more her smile gets wider. i told you i loved you and that you should 'really get some rest, you're body is probably screaming at you to.'
the vulnerability of his previous words and actions consume him. his chest ignites with passion. idyllic clouds above loom over the surroundings. with a handful of her curly hair now in his grasp, he presses his lips upon her's and thinks, finally. finally. a labored gasp escapes her at the contact; he kisses the ever-changing grin on her lips over and over and over.
devotion harbors within him and he begins to kiss every visible inch of her upper body. again in spanish, cairo gasps out — at the same time his needy kisses along her exposed shoulder as well as her freckle-covered collarbone resemble a dance of fervor; a soul-bearing touch; and a telling expression of their collective urgency to love (alas, the familiarity) — the words, hasta que no pueda besar más, each word accentuated; until i can kiss no more.
she hugs him to her body, the eventual loss of his touch heavy on her conscious. he is a mind unraveling. the last puzzle piece attaching. the taste of a honeysuckle. the petrichor-scented smell of the earth after the world's endured a storm. and the refreshing feeling of a drink in the summer. and endgame. and her forever. so she gently clasps his hand and presses it against her heart. it only beats at this rhythm for you. tears well in his eyes as he responds by saying hasta que no pueda amar más under his breath.
until i can love no more.
