Fire-fam kids Teenage Adventures: Influences
The way I pulled and Evan Buckley and did an ungodly amount of research to find out if Christophers age here was still somewhat reasonable. I pulled out my calculator! Trigger warning: shootings
Tumblr media
It had been a month and a few weeks after his first day of high school. Specifically at Theodore Roosevelt High. Sure Eddie had been more than a little worried, but Chris was confident he would be fine. Don't get it twisted, at first, he wanted to go to school with Denny and Harry. But after thinking it over, he decided it would be better to make connections on his own.
Buck was more than happy to let him try his own thing as long as he was being safe. After the painful slow burn, Eddie and Buck tied the knot and have been married for two years now. It was nothing but heaven. Of course, that didn't mean he wasn't scared his little boy was going off to high school.
"I declare you, officially a teenager. Welcome to angst and acne forever!" Harry had said that when Christopher's fourteenth birthday came up. Harry was already sixteen by now so he knew a thing or two. Denny, who was now fifteen, had recorded the interaction to show his girlfriend and Christopher's secret friend. Not really a secret but Eddie and Buck didn't know about him yet so it technically was a secret. There was a reason Christopher pushed so hard to go specifically to Theodore Roosevelt.
Manuel "Manny" Salvador Gutiérrez. Mouthful of a name to say at once. It's why he preferred going by Manny Gutiérrez. Harry and Denny met him when Chris invited them to the mall saying he wanted them to meet someone. Manny was the type of guy to be tough and stoic. To be known as the troubled kid who looked like could throw a mean punch(he could) and not get hit at all.
Always wearing worn-down Vans with slightly baggy jeans, sometimes ripped jeans, an oversized shirt with a jacket over. Or sometimes a graphic tee that color matched with his Vans and leather jacket.  He dyed hair at the ends, piercings(eyebrow and nose), and small tattoos because his mom let him.
Underneath that though, kid was a total dork. Once he warms up to you he's a complete softy. Like a big furry black dog. Looks intimidating, but is dopey at the sight of his favorite person. And that person was Chris. They had met in Junior High in math class, which was Manny's best subject. The teacher recommended extra credit to tutor Chris and since then they've been best friends.
"Wonder what's taking so long?" Eddie hummed in response at Chimney behind him. After learning they had a 24-hour shift, Hen, Chim, Buck, and Eddie had decided to carpool in the black minivan so it would be less gas on everyone. Noticing the time they got out, Buck texted Carla ahead to not worry about Chris because they would be able to pick him up.
"Not sure, he's usually out by now. The final bell rang like 20 minutes ago."
Looking around, he couldn't spot his kid. He'd begun taking on a different style of dressing recently. Drifting slightly away from bright colors but keeping his nerdy side. His hair was also slightly different. He had shaved sides that weren't vibrant but still shined. Wore more Converse than  Eddie had in his whole life.
Hen looked out through her window, which was closer to the school gates, and saw Chris walking out but without his backpack smiling.
"I see him at the gate but he doesn't have his bag." Buck and Eddie turned to look and were surprised that Hen was telling the truth. Chris had this thing with bags,  that if he didn't have it on him during school hours, he wasn't functional. That's when they saw a 5,6, light-skinned boy with purple-tipped hair in curls in a messy mullet, running up to their son with a backpack on his body and holding Christopher's bag for him on the other.
Eddie's eyes bulged, he barely even got to touch the bag, including Buck. He wondered how Christopher allowed the boy to hold his bag as carelessly as he was. As the two teenagers looked around, Christopher saw the minivan, smiled, and waved. The boy next to him doing the same. Buck, Chim, and Hen waved back smiling.
Not Eddie, he was still in shock and protective dad mode. As the boys walked over Eddie inspected the kid closer. He got a weird feeling and immediately disapproved. Then again he didn't know him so judgment was base level.
"Never would've thought Christopher hung out with punk rock kids," Chim commented making Hen snort and Buck smile while glancing at the back seat diagonal from him. Hen moved back through the open middle and sat in the very back seat. As the door opened, Eddie adjusted himself in the driver's seat so he could look at the pair better.
"Hey everybody!" Christopher said cheerfully.
"Hey!" Was the synchronized greeting. When nothing came out of Eddie except a soft smile, Chris raised an eyebrow but chose to ignore it for now. Turning to his friend while reaching for his bag Christopher spoke.
"Thanks again Manny, I'll text you when I get home." The blonde said whilst putting his bag on the floor of the van. Raising his hand waiting for Manny to do the same.
"Más te vale menso." He replied in Spanish while dapping up Chris. Walking away after Chris closed the car doors, he put on his headphones and walked off down the street.
"Who was that?" Christopher gained a weird expression, not because of the question in general, but because of the tone his dad used. Is he angry at Manny?
"My friend. Why?" Laughter came from the other three "adults" in the vehicle while Eddie started the van giving Christopher more confusion than before. After dropping off the other two firefighters at their respective homes, the family of three headed home. Once inside, Eddie wanted to start asking Chris about Manny but the person of interest interrupted with a phone call. Unintentionally.
"Hey, big man! How's the homework Garcia gave us? N-no! Oh, come on! Another Delta math-, I swear he secretly hates us-,..." The sound of conversation drifted away as Christopher dashed into his room for privacy. A small laugh pulled Eddie from his thoughts.
Turning around to glare at the man who he loved oh so much, but would very much beat up for making fun of him.
"What?"
"Yeesh, spicy Díaz, my favorite. Wish  I could have you to myself early." Buck sauntered over whilst pulling his lover in by the waist. Getting a petty pout from the shorter one.
"Siguele, aver como te va. Don't act like you're not worried either." Eddie sassed as he placed a soft kiss on Buck's lips, the latter happily reciprocating. Pulling away, smiling Buck sighed.
"Nah, especially cause I already knew." He informed his husband, who's eyes widened in shock. "I walk into Chris' room to put some clothes away and saw the Discord call open,... and their messages." Buck looks down somewhat shamefully.
If Eddie was immature, he would ask what the messages had said. However, today was not the day, he needed to know Buck's opinion. (He'll press him for details later when they go to bed) Smiling with jaw agape, he couldn't help but chuckle at his pale lover with blue eyes.
"So you're telling me that, you were judging me, for being too snoopy of my son.." burying his face against Eddie's shoulder to save embarrassment, "And you-!"
Laughing slightly cut him off, to be fair, he was laughing too.
"YoOU decided to SCROLL through our little boy's messages?? You?! The 'laid back' parent?!"
Cackling at this point Eddie was smiling uncontrollably whilst watching Buck wallow in shame.
"You guys okay?" Chris said smiling at how affectionate they were being peeking his head out of his door. The pair turned to look at their son. Damn, he'd gotten tall over the time he'd entered high school.
"Yeah, we're good bud. We're just laughing at something." Buck assured the blonde boy.
"Okay, hey is it okay if I go over to Manny's tomorrow after school? It's his birthday and we wanted to spend time together," Despite the emotional manipulation tactic(taught to him by Buck no doubt) Eddie caved and agreed to let him go, reluctantly, as long as he texted when they went anywhere different location-wise.
-------------------------------------------
So be it the next morning Christopher was gone for school earlier than Eddie and Buck were up for their 10-hour shift, and he got suspicious. The last time that happened Christopher made pancakes and burned Eddies. On purpose. Called it revenge for when he was a kid who couldn't fend for himself. He got noogied for a good bit after that one.
Looking at his phone after brushing his teeth, he saw a message from Chris. Saying he left early with some friends because they were stopping by the store near the school. They were grabbing snacks to eat in class because their teacher didn't care as long as they multi-tasked(they wouldn't), and finished their online notes(they won't).
Looking over his shoulder, Buck smiled in awe. He looked so proud of his son that it made Eddie's heart melt.
"He's growing up now huh?" Eddie nodded but stayed silent. Raising a brow in concern, Buck turned the shorter firefighter to face him and gently lifted his face with his index finger. Poor Papa Eddie, had small tears forming in his eyes. "Awh, Eddie, mi amor. It's okay."
If you think Buck didn't hold Eddie for a solid 3 minutes whilst rocking slowly from right to left? You're wrong. He even moved his hands against the man's face and kissed his forehead. Pulling back into the hug, Eddie nuzzled his head in Bucks' muscular figure.
"Don't forget he still needs us." Eddie knew that, but the thought of Christopher one day leaving to be on his own was terrifying.
-------------------------------------------
And need them he did. How did it go so wrong so fast? At first, it started like a normal workday. Mess with Chim and Ravi, gossip with Hen, work out with Lena, answer calls, and help Bobby make dinner. Stuff that was unexpectedly expected. That is till 1:30 when a call from a school. Saying that there was an active shooter in their walls.
"It's at Roosevelt," Bobby said without wanting to go into detail. Everyone in the back seat froze and gazed upon Eddie and Buck who quickly interlocked hands to try and pace their breathing to focus. "Think you can handle it?" Immediate nods from the pair answered. The others smiled solemnly.
Once arriving at the school they noticed police officers everywhere around the school, thank god, and students across the street on the far side of the park. They caught sight of Officer Morales, a good friend of Athena's, talking to the Principal.
Athena went up to them once seeing their arrival.
"Whoever it is, it's a student. The cameras Reid hacked showed no footage of anyone sneaking in on school grounds. I need you guys to go in and find some kids that are still in the building-" A loud series of gunshots were heard. People near but far enough away from the danger could be heard crying, yelling, or swearing. Reluctantly Athena looked to Eddie. "Christopher is in there still. Along with four others. We need to hurry. My group will flank left, you go right, I want this child caught."
Without wasting another second, and no time to fully think about what she said, the team applied bullet bulletproof vest underneath their jackets and broke a window to get in through the science labs. Walking around as silently as possible they tried finding the shooter without giving them a hint of an idea that they were inside. 
Granted, shattered glass in an empty room isn't the quietest. Walking around Eddie's heart was beating quicker than ever. Of all things, why a shooter at his son's school? Then Eddie thought back to what Christopher had asked him yesterday. Poor Manny must think today's the worst birthday ever.
Hearing a crack, they froze. Getting ready to duck into cover in the classrooms or run across the hallway. The sound of running gets nearer, with a shadow then rounding the corner to face them. Manny.
The sigh of relief from the kid was the opposite of what the firefighters felt. The boy was covered in blood and his hair was more messy and gross from sweat. Bobby prayed that it was someone else's blood in an attempt to trick the shoot. Manny scanned each of them till running up to Buck and Eddie.
"I know where Chris is! Come on!" He whispered. Looking at the other firefighters he gave them information on where the shooter was. "She's on the top floor, I drove her away from where Chris was and looped around. She thinks I'm still up there."
So it was a girl. Snapping out of it Bobby radioed Athena and told her to meet upstairs to corner the shooter and catch her.
"Her?" Athena's surprised voice could be heard.
"She's the daughter of a gun shop owner. She must've been pissed enough about Monday morning to pull this," Monday? "Careful, it's not a pretty sight in room S-16." This poor kid. Following Manny down the hall he came from, they made it to the Library and headed to the back.
Digging through the ripped wallpaper, he opened up a hidden room. Inside Christopher was having a panic attack, holding a pair of long scissors. Once seeing Manny he dropped them and lunged into the taller kid's arms.
"Manny! Dads!" The boy said hugging his parents whilst his friend watched. Taking a good look at him, Christopher wasn't injured. Smudged blood from hugging Manny in the relief of seeing his friend alive.
"We gotta get them outta here," Buck said before shots were fired upstairs.
"Go, I need to find Angie. She's still in the upper bathroom. I saw her text." Manny told Christopher, almost forgetting the adults were still there. Seriously?
"No time, come on!" Eddie yelled and went to pick up Chris. But Manny was two steps ahead and grabbed his arm running away. Groaning Eddie and Buck ran after the pair. Eddie was cursing in his head, what the hell is wrong with him!? Putting them in jeopardy like this.
Seeing them stop abruptly, Manny pushed his arm against one of the fire escape doors. It looked like one of the other students propped it open to let others out in case they were still inside. When Eddie and Buck reached them, Eddie walked through the door and tried, key word tried, to drag them towards the truck.
"No, I need to get to Angie! She's still in there!" Manny yelled out trying to rip out of Buck's hold.
"Manny! She's gonna be okay, I know you don't trust law enforcement but these are good ones. They're my family," Chris calmed(reprimanded??) his friend and led him towards the truck. Once they got to the truck, Hen ran over to inspect the injuries on Manny while Eddie checked Christopher to double-check if he was injured or not. A thump broke the inspection though. Looking up, Eddie saw Manny lying down in the truck with Hen panicked.
"Manny!" Chris yelled, leaning over his friend trying to wake him up.
"Oh my god-, Eddie I need gauze for pressure, he was shot in the stomach!" Scanning the boy, he noticed the splotch of blood on his white shirt over the torso was getting darker. Also spreading and staining the vehicle along with the boy's jacket. A brief sight at the jacket let Eddie read out a name on a patch on his right arm. U.S. Navy Airforce it read.
"Shit! Buck! Grab Chris!"
"No! Buck let me go! Manny!" Chris yelled trying to break free from his pop's arms. Looking back at the scene the kid was barely breathing but needed serious medical attention quickly.
"We need to get him to the hospital. Now!" Nodding her head, Hen and Eddie transferred him to one of the ambulances and rode off to the hospital nearby. 
"Stay with us kid, just a little longer!" Manny was looking around the ambulance looking at Eddie trying to respond to him. "No, no, no, don't talk, focus on breathing. I need you to stay with me! We're almost there!"
Looking out the window of the ambulance, Eddie's heart broke more. The sight of leaving Christopher behind in Buck's arms, still trying to break free and run after the ambulance. Eddie didn't doubt tears were streaming down his son's face.
-------------------------------------------
Later after arriving at the hospital and dropping the kid off, Eddie asked the nurses, whom he knew personally from all of his and his husband's escapades, to give him updates on Manny. She agreed relieved after inspecting the file quickly and said she'd let him know anything that happened.
After an hour of searching and a shot police officer, they were able to catch the girl responsible. Apparently, on Monday morning one of the teachers shamed her for her behavior. Saying it was her attitude wouldn't get her far in life especially because she didn't have a mom. the teacher didn't apologize and the people who she asked for help didn't do anything about it. That doesn't excuse the shooting and the lives it cost. The teacher she tried to get wasn't even hurt after the fact.
Parents were crying whilst firefighters and police officers consoled them. Returning to the scene for any additional tasks, Eddie scanned the area looking for his team. After catching sight of Buck and Chimney, he and Hen ran up to them.
"Where's Christopher?"
"Carla took him home, Bobby let me call her to make sure he was away from here," Buck said from behind him. Looking around slightly Eddie saw Ravi sitting on the curb with his head in his hands. "Ravi was up with some of the officers and Bobby trying to get the shooter. She aimed her gun at Ravi and a kid hiding in the corner jumped in front of him. It went right through his skull. Held him in his arms and took his parents into the building to mourn." Eddie grabbed Bucks' hand and walked up to Ravi.
This poor guy couldn't catch a break. Looking up, Ravi revealed his bloodshot eyes and pale face.
"It wasn't your fault," Buck said leaning on one knee with his partner copying. Putting an arm on the shoulder for comfort. Shaking his head, Ravi bit his lip to stop more tears.
"I'm sorry Buck, but right now I can't believe that. I don't think I ever will either."
After that Bobby told them all to go home and spend time with themselves and their families. Once opening the door to their house, Eddie and Buck were tackled into a hug by their son and then a softer one from Carla. After she left, Eddie gave Christopher an update on Manny. He was stable but wouldn't leave the hospital for a few days.
"Do you know his parent's phone number? I don't know if they followed to the hospital after getting a phone call." Chris gained a pained expression and rubbed his eyes, pushing his glass up in the process, before responding.
"They aren't home, they're in Miami. They're truckers, so they're never really around." Eddie took a glance at Buck who was looking down at the table saddened even more. "They're good people, just not around a lot. He was mainly with his uncle till last year. I can't say more than that, it's personal and should come from Manny."
-------------------------------------------
The next morning school was canceled for the next two weeks. Along with encouragement for parents to seek therapy for their kids. Chris already had one, but Manny had become a concern now in Eddie's mind. Birthday at the same time as shooting and almost dying was not a good combo.
"When Madison pulled out her gun she was in the English room. Me and Manny were walking down the hall from turning in papers when we heard the gunshots. We thought something loud hit the floor till she came out, saw us, and shot. I froze, but Manny reacted and shielded himself in front of me. Grabbed my hand and booked it downstairs. I was able to pull the fire alarm in time whilst someone else called the cops. Angie was the one that wasn't in the room so she dialed 9-1-1." By the end of retelling the incident, Chris was sobbing in his father's arms, trying to speak but couldn't.
After a small breakfast, they all headed to the hospital and saw the multitude of parents in the waiting room. Some with tears, others with anger on their face. Some blank.
"Why are we here?" 
"This is where we brought Manny, figured you'd want to see him. Plus he deserves a good party for his birthday. Sixteen's a big one." Chris brightened up at the idea but went back to somber at the idea of Manny connected to tubes keeping him alive.
"Hey there, you visiting that kid you brought in yesterday?" the same nurse from the other day asked. Smiling Eddie nodded, holding up a bag with a cake inside. They stopped at the store quickly to buy a mini one. Eddie hoped he loved carrot cake. It was the only one they had.
"If that's okay. Don't wanna overwhelm him after yesterday." Buck coaxed, probably trying to subtly tell Chris they might not let him in due to not being on the emergency list.
"Yeah, honestly better you three than no one at all." That brought frowns to Eddie and Buck. His parents weren't home yet then. Going up the elevators and walking the halls down, they got to the room. Taking a deep breath Chris opened the door and saw Manny awake looking at something on his phone. Looking up he visibly relaxed yet still looked worried. Meanwhile, Chris was just happy to see his friend alive running over to hug him.
Buck had his arm over Eddie's shoulder and leaned his head on the latter. This kid wasn't so bad. And he deserved so much better than what the universe handed him this week.

Reader is jealous Davina keeps flirting with Kol and she gets enough courage to go up and kiss him so she can back off. The thing is reader she isn't sure what came over him, Kol went along with it cause he does feel for her but was waiting for her to say or do something about it. He makes a joke about how long it took her to admit it. /Playful banter between Kol and reader, she is vocal about not liking Davina but never gave a real reason but it was cause she wanted Kol to herself.
Well That Took A While. | Kol Mikaelson x Reader
my masterlist ↪M A S T E R L I S T
Tumblr media
"Now you tell me, if Davina can make better pancakes than that." I smirk sliding a plate of pancakes down the end of the table to Kol who had been sitting patiently for 20 minutes for me to make him pancakes.
"You have a bit of a jealousy problem." Kol laughed at my remark, eating my pancake before melting into bliss "it's good huh?" I ask him and he nods "and no I don't have a jealousy problem. I just don't like her all too much, shes... irritating." I shrug
"you say that about Davina more than anyone else." Kol says with a mouthful of food "yeah because she's always up in your face." I shrug "who is that?" Davina walks into the room, taking a pancake off of Kol's plate and comfortably sitting down next to him.
"Y-" "Some girl she bumped into in the bar." Kol cuts me off and I give him the death stare "what, no." I say angrily "oh well most people are lovely here, if they bumped into you its because they don't like you, isn't that right Kol." Davina winks to Kol.
God I had hated her guts since she came into this stupid Mikaelson family thing. It's always about her and Kol or about how the world hates me because I can't get anything, which doesn't make sense but to her it does.
"Well aren't you both in a mood today." Kol scoffs "it wasn't me, i've made it apparent how I don't like her." I point to the teenage imbecile sitting next to the man of my dreams.
"Besides it's like she lives here, I do, she doesnt." I say snatching the rest of the pancake out of her hand and stuffing it in my mouth.
"If you didn't like me so much, why would you eat my food." I say at her angrily with my mouth full of food.
"Well it's because Kol is here, wherever he goes, I go." she smiles like a fucking idiot. I can't believe she even thinks of having a chance with Kol.
I give her a death stare, Kol obviously finding it funny with the subtle snickers as he hides behind Davina trying to hide it from me.
"You fucking creepy teenager." I say "Harvest Witch" she corrects me "Harvest Bitch, Davina Cole is a Harvest Bitch." I correct her before she rolls her eyes at me in a petty way before looking at Kol with loving eyes.
"Besides if Kol wanted you, he would have done it a while ago, wouldn't you Kol?" Davina asks "Uh-" "Kol shut up, Davina you're just upset because Klaus didn't give you what he promised, neither did Elijah so you're just being a little bitch because you know that you are no longer of use therefore meaning no more raging popularity for attacking the Mikaelsons, you're just a little girl now." I say.
She did get a rise out of me, not in a good way either. It was like she hated me, I suppose she did but I did nothing towards her.
"well if Kol liked you so much-" Davina continues talking and I block her out, walking over to Kol and kissing him passionately, placing my hands on his cheeks. Loving every part of the kiss until Davina screamed out.
"UGH" she says before storming off.
Kol and I had never done anything like that ever, so of course she would get mad and storm out of the room like a little 9 year old about to throw a tantrum.
"woah" Kol says as I pull away wiping my mouth wiping my wrist. "Don't say woah, you went along with it." I mumble going back to what I was doing before Davina came in.
"it was just the heat of the moment, I had to do something to get that bitch off my back." I mumble and Kol nods.
"well that took a while." he scoffs "did you taste the pancakes?' he asks me in a joking mood "what do you mean it took a while" I say turning my back to him "well it took you a while to do something about your little crush, darling." Kol says and I can just tell her has a smug look on his face even though my back is facing him.
"what, no i don't have a little crush." I spin around only to find that my assumption about the ok on his face was right. "you do, what other reason do you have to still be in this conversation right now." Kol winked.
I couldn't lie to him because even if he knew I was lying he could hear my heartbeat.
I guess that took a while.

PLEASEEEE tell me about the symbolism in your drawing Oh i am dying to know
HII why thank you for asking!! I'll try my best to answer concisely but Tl;dr I'm not normal about either cwilbur or flower symbolism :) it also must be noted that a lot of my decisions are entirely based on my personal cultural experience so I hope if anything you find it interesting.
For an overview, The peice is inspired by art nouveau, namely alphonse mucha and henri privat livemont, and is mostly based on this hamlet production poster by the former. The composition however is not based on said illustration, and is slightly inspired in part by stained glass and fences of the movement. The clothing cwilbur is wearing is from the edwardian period, if I've got my references correct it's earlier in the period, though not any year in particular. It differs drastically in the fact that the colors are very vibrant (I can't help putting cwil in shades of red, ho16 permanently changed my brain chemistry), and that the Cape part of the inverness cape is entirely too short. Otherwise I've attempted to keep the general silhouette accurate.
Now the plant symbolism:
First: Arabian jasmine (which fun fact are not actually the same as the 4 petal vine yasmine, has a different name, Full (فل), and they grow on shrubs) and the Damascus rose go together because of two reasons: 1) i didn't know other flowers to put there and 2) they're very closely tied in my brain. If you try to find their symbolism you'll find a lot of things about beauty and purity, as is common with any white flower or rose, but my reasoning differs. Without going into too much detail, I intended for them to symbolise community and belonging.
Daffodils (the ones depicted are the ones most common in my region, they may not resemble the expectations but they are indeed daffodils) mean death rebirth and hope, its a flower i generally associate with cwil. Same meaning goes for the white lilies. And poppies have a heavy association with war and generally symbolise remeberance and hope for peace, and thus, l'manberg association.
The next five are flowers that represnt certain characters strictly based on cwilbur's preception of them, but they can be applied to others as well, i just thought these were most important:
Freesia: especially when yellow, usually means thoughtfulness, trust and friendship. represents cranboo.
Orange/tiger lilly: pride, hatred, status, tenacity.  Cquackity
Lilly of the valley: cmon we all know this one, ctommy
Boat orchid: virtue and morality, a gesture of respect and friendship. Ctubbo
Gladiolus: diminutive of gladius(sword); strength of character, moral integrity and rememberance. ctechno
pomegranate tree and fruit: pomegranates have a very different connotation in Western media, from what I can glean, as opposed to what I'm used to them being perceived as (I won't derail this but I can elaborate if needed). In short, I've chosen to take advantage of this double meaning and so its here to represent life death and resurrection while the tree is for family and home.
On a side note, I was originally going to do night blooming jasmine (مسك الليل) but it wasn't working, the symbolism of it however still stand: its a flower many love and think smells amazing, but rarely do they actually want the burden of having it in their own yards because of how deathly strong it smells. I was intending on using it to symbolise the complicated nature of cwilbur's relationship with the important people in his life.
And finally, the olive tree: aside from its meanings of peace and friendship, olive trees also mean olive oil which is a product with many healing properties that is not too easy to make and requires a lot of work. i chose it to mean healing and the process thereof.
So yeah that's it, hope it's up to expectation and thanks for the interest means a lot to me <33

I just binged the whole first season of Wednesday on Netflix, that shit was exquisite. It’s definitely worth the watch, not one episode lacked the Tim Burton touch or Jenna Ortega performance standard. I’d definitely watch a season 2, well done to everyone who contributed.

There are so many things I love about FMA (Specifically Brotherhood/Manga) HOWEVER SOMETHING STANDS OUT TO ME-
I love how all the characters are just,,,, "Genderless for your interpretation" - AND THAT IS JUST SO HEALING FOR ME AND HAS HELPED ME FIGURE OUT MY OWN IDENTITY -
Like I've seen Transmasc!Ed but I've also seen Transfemme!Ed
And my favourite one is Olivier (Promise no bias KLGLFKDSJG) - Like her gender is perceived SO DIFFERENTLY From person to person - Like I hc her as a transwoman who is starts to explore more of her gender and presents both masc and femme - But I've seen so many other hcs for her!! Like some people hc her as afab Non-binary person!
Like yes we have the canon character stories BUT I LOVE HOW I CAN JUST LOOK AT THEM AND GO "Genderless blobs that can be anything I want them to be"
I LOVE THIS SHOW SO MUCH BECAUSE IT'S SO PERFECT YET HAS SO MANY AREAS THAT CAN BE UP TO INDIVIDUALS TO CREATE A GROWING STORY ONTOP OF IT!!
Also FMA is a trans coded manga/anime you can't prove me wrong BECAUSE I AM CORRECT!

Rhett is the grandfather of Coulter and his brother Theo. Coulters mom, Leticia, loved having her father, Rhett, helping out. Every morning, Leticia would steam some sweet buns before she would go work the shipyards, it was hard seeing her children without their father, who died at sea shortly after she fell pregnant with their son Theo. Coulter was always a really skinny kid, he wanted to ensure his growth period would last as long as possible, so he ate tons of his mums food.

"i have been mental over you for weeks! Actually since the day we met. I always thought I wanted a clean and polite girl all my life. A girl who sits up straight and follows all the rules, the perfect girl with the prefect pin. you know- to match me. But than seeing you be so different and free and ready to live your own way.. it- it made me feel excited! But we have been best friends since before we could talk and I didn't want to lose the only friend I have left and I just felt to stuck an-"
Percy stammered before Dina placed a hand in front of his face to interrupt him.
"Shhhh"
She sweetly hushed and flashed him a sympathetic smile.
"Dina i- I am sorry"
Percy mumbled. His eyes filling with tears of guilt. He waited silently with expections of Dina blowing up and condemning him away and never speaking to him again or maybe even assaulting him for "forcing himself upon her" like she had threatened against all his overzealous gryffindor friends who seemed to have way too much confidence. But percy was different somehow. The way he blushed in embarrassment and stammered away, trying to search for a reason to justify his love for dina, trying and hoping she doesn't hate him.. it was- endearing to dina.
"You have very pretty eyes percy"
Was all she could manage to mutter. She was not sure why she said that or why it felt like the perfect thing to say in the moment, in this moment all dina could focus on was his sweet green eyes. His stunningly beautiful eyes that were as green as grass and as deep and meaniful as a million story books. Dina searched her mind for the answers to why this boy made her feel so perfect and so special, his smile, his laugh, the way he always knew the right thing to say, but all she could focus was his eyes.
His eyes told her everything she needed to know
And in the process of getting lost in the middle weasleys eyes she slowly leaned in close
Dangerously close.
Closer and Closer..
Until the two were passionately locking lips.

Treating My Sister Right | Freya Mikaelson x Reader
my masterlist ↪M A S T E R L I S T
Tumblr media
God she was beautiful, her blonde hair, her grassy green eyes and the way she carries herself. Like she owns the world, and she may aswell own the world.
I'm basically drooling over her, she's right in front of me and I can't even think about anything other than her.
They way I'd do anything for her and she wouldn't even have to ask twice, I'd kill people for her, I'd protect people for her. "you're drooling" a voice interrupts my gaze, turning my head annoyed to notice it was my bestfriend, Klaus.
Or as she calls him, Niklaus.
"she's just so beautiful" my voice made me sound high, i had been in love with the eldest Mikaelson for as long as I could remember. I couldn't even remember life before her really, all I remember was meeting her and how it changed my world.
"you should really take up my offer, on that date." Klaus states, we were at a party for the alliance of the witches, vampires and werewolves. Freya had been a main host so she was down stairs greeting everyone in her blue gorgeous dress.
Klaus and I had been standing up on the balcony, getting a birds-eye view of every weird looking individual.
"no." I state turning to him "you'd treat her right." he shrugs "what do you want me to woo her? use a bit of magic, she's the mikaelson witch, anything i'd do wouldn't even phase her." i sigh looking back down at her.
She was now talking to Elijah and Kol, it was one civilised chat because Kol didn't have a hint of death or anger about him.
"that wasn't what I said, y/n, i'll set everything up you just get freya and turn up, on time or the food will be as cold as your heart." Klaus says cheekily "your heart" I point to him "please, i have a beautiful baby girl." he chuckles.
"yet you still have time to kill people, doesn't stop you only gives you a distraction worth being distracted for." I shrug and he chuckles rolling his eyes.
Freya was now walking up the stairs towards me and Klaus, I'm assuming she had to talk to Klaus since her and I barely even spoke.
"Freya!" Klaus says and I spin around "Niklaus, Y/n" She smiles to me and Klaus "Hey Freya" I smile gently to her, admiring her up close, the way her dress fit so perfectly on her, the way her hair was curly but not out of control curly.
Her green eyes, god her green eyes, to see them up close is something I'd never get sick of.
"Niklaus, where is half of the crescent moons?" Freya asked Klaus in a sassy tone "I believe they were held up in traffic" he jokes around, Freya gives him a serious look "they were having a family bonfire thing, they are on their way." Klaus rolls his eyes.
Klaus turns to me before winking "your turn" he mouths and I shake my head and he grabs me, placing me in front of Freya "F-Freya" I stutter "Niklaus" I yell turning around to hit him nervously and he laughs.
"She would like you to go on a date with her, tomorrow evening?" Klaus asks Freya for me "A Date?" Freya says shocked "I told you Klau-" "Sure" she cuts me off with a smile on her face before walking off.
God she's amazing.
Wait.
She Said YES?
"She said Yes, right?" I ask Niklaus who winks turning back to the party "SHE SAID YES" I yell internally.
Her heels echoed through my mind, as did her voice sure, she actually agreed to go on a date with me. What on god's green earth.
"fireworks time" Klaus says to me "You got it" I say ecstatic waving my hands in the air to the fireworks placed on the roof "incendia" I mouth and the fireworks go off.
Everyone starts clapping and laughing, I look down the see Freya looking up, admiring the night sky whilst I admired her.
How her dress blended in with the night sky yet her green eyes stood out, out of everything.
She was just perfect to me, "you will treat her right, right? you won't just treat her badly in spite of me." Klaus says second guessing his assumption "no of course not, i'd never throw away the chance to treat her right, she deserves it." I smile.
