"all my dreams my dear they are of you."

spring came fast to jackson.

dew painted the grass on early mornings and little patches of snow began to melt into the soil. winter was finally over and you were finally back on farming duty. however, you weren’t as excited as you thought you would be.

patrol was something you would have dreaded a year ago, the idea of entering the outside world terrifying you completely. but as winter came around, and farming became obsolete, maria had warned you you needed to sign up for a new task. your dumbass, however, signed up too late and both stable and kitchen work were all filled up. patrol became your only option. 

on your first day of patrol, you were assigned with dina. she basically held your hand through it: walking into buildings first, showing you how to aim and shoot your gun, and teaching you all the best places to hide. it was an easy day with one encounter with an infected (who dina shot on sight).

your second day you were paired with jesse, who was, to your surprise, gentler. he made jokes when he could tell you were getting scared, always walked with his hand outstretched in front of you when walking into new territory, and taught you how to make a molotov cocktail.  you felt safe with them.

on your third day, you were paired with ellie who was less than kind at first. upon seeing you she rolled her eyes and scoffed, mumbling something like, “why do i always have to be paired with the newbies?” 

to avoid confrontation you simply kept your mouth shut. you were supposed to be partners and you were going to do your best to keep yourself alive. like the others, ellie walked into spaces first and after clearing the area for any infected, started a small fire in the lookout to keep the two of you warm.

you stood at a distance from her where she was placing her palms just above the fire and then rubbing them together for warmth. you watched on with a shiver, shaking as you looked out the window.

“you’re not going to get warm from all the way over there,” ellie spoke up, causing you to snap your head in her direction.

“what?”

“the fire is over here. you have to stand close to get at least a little warm,” she commented, beckoning you over with the wave of her hand, “here, come get warm.”

“oh,” you stepped closer to the fire, sitting down across from her, bathing in the warmth the fire offered.

“you’re not really talkative, huh?” ellie chuckled, taking picking at her nails as she spoke.

“uh, no, i usually am,” you laughed nervously, looking to the raised skin around her nailbeds.

“oh, so you just don’t like me?” her tone was joking, but there seemed to be an ounce of vulnerability to it. her eyes looked up to yours, scanning your face for a reaction.

“no, i just,” you took a deep breath and shrugged, “earlier you said you didn’t want to be stuck with the newbie so i didn’t want to be a bother or anything.”

“shit,” she breathed, pinching the bridge of her nose. all of the skin around her nails were raw and red, “i’m such an asshole. i didn’t mean it like that. i’ve just had a shitty week.”

“no, it’s fine,” you forced a smile, “i understand. i’m just nervous and this is all new to me.”

she paused for a moment, looking you over and taking another deep sigh. 

“i’m not usually an asshole.”

“sure.”

“no, seriously, i’m usually nice.”

“i believe you.”

“ok, i’m kind of nice, but i’m doing my best.”

“it’s fine, i’m also an asshole,” you spit out and she laughed. a full chested laugh that went on for what felt like a minute. it was the kind of laugh were all of her teeth showed and wrinkles formed by her eyes. it made your chest feel warm. 

from that moment on you and ellie became close friends. if you knew you were patrolling with her you would bring her a corn muffin wrapped in fabric. she’d say something about how good of a cook you were or mumble a ‘fuck yeah’ before stuffing half the muffin in her mouth. if she killed any infected later she would say something like, “that was only for the muffin. you’re gonna need to bring me another before i do any more of your dirty work.”

occasionally, she would bring her guitar and show you some of the music she was writing in any downtime you had. she was always so excited too, saying something along the lines of: “let’s try to clear this area as fast as we can so i can show you my new stuff.”

when you sat in front of her, legs crossed in front of you, you watched as a bright blush spread across her face before she sang. 

“this is new, so take it easy on me, okay?”

at some point towards the end of december she came to your house with something wrapped in fabric. her whole face was red, but you couldn’t tell if it was from the snow or her nervousness as she shoved the present into your hand.

“what’s this?” you asked, eyes wide ushering her in from the snow and shutting the door behind you.

“it’s a christmas gift,” she smiled, “i don’t know if you know what christmas is but people used to celebrate it back in the old days. joel told me about it and now we celebrate it every year. it’s basically just a holiday where you give your loved ones… or friends a present. they used to pretend this big fat guy with a beard came down people's chimneys and gave presents to kids who were good but i guess they gave up that idea. santa probably got infected or some shit. anyways, this is for you.”

when you peeled back the fabric, a picture of you sketched out on charcoal was on a piece of thick paper. you looked beautiful. it almost looked as if ellie had spent hours looking at your face and studying all the tiny details of it. not to your knowledge, but she had. 

a gasp fell from your lips as tears welled up in your eyes. you didn’t even have time to thank ellie before you were squeezing her tightly in your arms, causing her to cough. you were literally hugging her so tight she couldn’t breathe, but she didn’t mind it. she took a deep breath and hugged you back, smelling the pine on your hair and skin. 

“i love it, ellie,” you whispered, “thank you.”

when january came around, ellie decided you didn’t know how to hold a gun. most of your shots were misses and the drawback made you stumble back. you were becoming a liability, but mostly ellie feared for your safety. all it took was one fall and you would never be the same again.

so here ellie stood giving verbal directions on how to hold a gun. you, however, were a mess who didn’t know your left from your right.

“your left foot! i said your left foot!”

“this is my left foot!”

“babe, that’s your right.”

“oh,” you switched legs but it wasn’t good enough. ellie came up behind you, placing her hands on your shoulder and fixing your posture. the heat from where her hands were on you radatied throughout your body and went straight down your legs. she stepped closer, placing a hand on your stomach and pressing it lightly. your breath hitched. 

“okay, now move your hand like this,” her free hand moved from the base of your arm to your fingertips. she adjusted your stance slowly. slow enough for it to feel like foreplay, “just like that. yeah, good girl.”

you could feel her breath on your neck where your scarf didn’t cover. it was all too sensual and then SNAP. a sound in the distance made her jump back and step in front of you, her own gun drawn in a matter of seconds.

your gun stance was never revisited after that. 

but now it was spring, and you would no longer be on patrol. as much as you liked spending time with ellie, it was still too much of a risk for you to take when you enjoyed farming so much. when you told ellie a big pout broke out on her face as she dramatically reached for you. 

“what am i going to do without you on patrol?” she whined, squeezing you so hard it made you laugh.

“we can still hang out,” you reminded her, pushing her off you, “plus maybe i’ll be back on patrol next winter.”

“yeah, but i liked having 8 hours of us time. now we will get like 4 hours a day max,” ellie leaned her head back on her couch, the dramatic pout still there. 

“how about we meet here every day after our shifts and have dinner together?” you offered, making her face light up, “i can cook and everything.”

“okay, but you have to sleep over at least once a week,” she demanded

“deal,” you smiled, teeth showing.

“if i’m not here though you can just let yourself in,” she casually commented, “i’ll give you a spare key.”

it went on like that for weeks, you coming over after your shift and making dinner and laughing with ellie about something joel or dina said until you eventually fell asleep on her couch. some nights you would watch a movie together, others you would bake something together (even though ellie usually tapped out when it came to cracking an egg). if ellie was running late or something you would make up time by cleaning up your mess from the kitchen or tidying up the living room, but by that time she would be stumbling through the door and apologizing for being late. 

this night, however, ellie was running extremely late. you had already cleaned both the kitchen and living room and there was still no sight of her. to avoid anxiously pacing around the room and waiting for her, you decided to clean her room. you swept the floors, wiped down her bedside table, and began making her bed before you noticed a notebook tucked in between her bed and it’s frame. 

you pulled it out of its place and examined it. it looked like it was frequently used, the edges of it torn and dirty. the yellow pages of the notebook were slightly hanging out and it looked like pages had been ripped out and stuffed back in. you shouldn’t read this, your mind rang clear. you wanted to respect ellie’s privacy, but curiosity got the best of you. 

you flipped to a middle page, skimming over some entry about how much joel was being an asshole before stopping at your name. your name in her notebook with hearts drawn around it. your name written in pink over and over again. below the different variations of your name was a paragraph, presumably about you. you read it in ellie’s voice.

“another successful patrol. and by successful i mean i tricked her into holding my hand. i probably sound like such a creep but all i want is to be close to her. i want to hold her hand as we walk down the streets of jackson and kiss her in a booth at the diner. when she got scared she would squeeze my hand a little. it made me dizzy. this crush feels like it’s going to ruin me. i think she may ruin me but i don’t even care. all i want is her.”

you smiled, flipping a page, heat rushing to your cheeks as you read another passage about you:

“i sang a song for her today that i wrote about her. she told me my voice was beautiful and asked who it was about. i panicked and told her it was about cat. fucking cat!!! i haven’t thought about cat in fucking forever. i just want to tell her already because this is so fucking embarrassing. she probably thinks i don’t like her but i do. what if she never knows? i’ll tell her eventually… i will.”

you sit down on her still unmade bed, reading the next page.

“i wanted to kiss her so bad today. ugh. her lips were all red and pouty from the cranberry juice and when she smiled her teeth were all red. she asked why i was smiling at her and i told her that her teeth were all red. she looked so embarrassed and got up to clean them. i felt like an asshole but that’s better than being rejected by her right?”

another one.

“we watched curtis and viper today after patrol. she cooked us chicken and then cried because it was her favorite chicken. this girl has the biggest heart in the world. when the movie was done we just talked about what life would be like if the apocalypse didn’t happen. she said she would have been a teacher or some kind of helping profession. she’s fucking sweet. i told her i’d probably be a dentist or a lawyer. something fun. i left out the part where i’d want to come home to her every night. i’m such a loser. i think i love her.”

the last part made you gasp, except the gasp wasn’t coming from your mouth, it came from the person standing in front of you. ellie.

“what are you doing with that?”

YOOOOO

IT'S TIME FOR A SCENARIO

Ok ok, so, it's like;

We have an MC that people normally see as someone who is very unaffectionate and who always seems to be on the defensive, to such a degree that people think that MC is someone who is Passive-aggressive all the time.

BUT

One day, the boys decide to visit MC at their home by surprise (because they had never visited MC before so they decided to visit him that day because the boys just wanted to)

Yap, at the moment MC will open the door/window (if the boys had decided that it was better to enter through the window) The first thing the boys see is that MC is in his pajamas, one which makes MC, who normally looks like is upset, look like a teddy bear.

And, surprise surprise, MC doesn't seem bothered by the boys' sudden visit to their home (there's only slight confusion, but nothing more than that).

The boys, who expected to receive at least one or another annoying comment or murmur, even a threat to get out of MC's house, are surprised to see the lack of the characteristic MC aggressiveness.

But, anyway, they accept the new discovered side of MC.

(Cut to some boys surprised by the hospitality and kindness with which MC treats them, offering to watch a movie or play one of the few board games in the house, even offering Cook them something)

In short, MC is totally someone who is much more meek and calm when he is in his home than when he is outside of it.

And the boys just love that, even planning to surprise visit MC individually more often.

(This thought came to me only because I imagined Rise! Raphael getting delirious about this, slowly thinking that every time he visits MC, he is actually returning home after a day doing his job ensuring the well-being of New York, being welcomed by his spouse -MC-, and simply living a domestic life)

(Meanwhile MC is just like: "Bruh??? ¿¿??")

NO SHIT-

MY WEAKNESS-

I hate cooking. I hate cleaning. And yet domestic life is one of my favourite troupes. Literally I am a hypocrite.

I-

…

I shouldn’t but…since I’m really fucking excited about writing my first part of my monster series (minus the 3 day delay with my trip)

Double mouthed lady Mikey who loves cooking for you. He feels so much joy when he has a big ass gourmet meal on the table, and happily loads food onto your plate with his chopsticks.

Don’t worry about leftovers!

He’ll take care of it…

By the next morning, you notice all the food from the night before is gone.

(IM TRYING SO HARD NOT TO SPOIL TOO MUCH OF THE CHARACTER ITSELF SCREAMING-)

Standard EPUB format is available to download directly from me for $1 cheaper than Amazon: https://ko-fi.com/s/2a82c64d56

And WILL be available at other retailers soon!

Here's the thing: I had a pretty solid platform on Twitter, but since Elon took over, a lot of my followers left, the algorithm crashed, and the whole thing might go under. I don't have the same reach on other platforms, so I need some help! Please share this post if you like GAY SHIT and BOOKS and helping indie content creators be successful!!! Please follow me or check out my ko-fi for updates! Thanks!!! Here's my pitch, hope you like it:

"Fire & Ice": The flaming hot queer romance novel where a foray into BDSM helps two best friends find themselves, each other, and what it really means to burn. Summary: "Firefighter Tripp Truett has somehow tumbled into a whole new kind of relationship with his quirky paramedic best friend, Lee, but mutual relief from their high-stress jobs quickly develops into something more. With all the missed signals and crossed wires, can these two ever figure out that they're so much closer to being on the same page than they think?"

**************************************** About the author (info dump ahoy!!!!) :

I'm Robin, sometimes known as Wings! I'm a 36-year-old, queer, autistic, disabled mom of 2 humans and 5 senior rescue dogs, former R.N. & paramedic. I'm a hardcore fangirl and a proud fanfic writer (and reader), and while I know some people will judge me for that, I am not ashamed! I started writing as a hobby after becoming physically disabled and unable to work as an RN. Fanfic gave me an audience and an outlet, gifted me purpose and hope again. Transformative fiction is FUN! It fosters creativity and passion, heals wounds, and makes people happy. If someone wants to discredit me for that, then perhaps they aren't the audience I'm seeking.

Ultimately, I know I'm taking a risk, but since people seem to enjoy my fics, this book is my attempt to try and make ends meet through original fiction! I know some people WILL discredit me. But I'm always about being myself and speaking on what I feel matters: Fanfic should be legitimized as a creative medium. I assure you, friends—the thousands of hours I've spent on my fanworks are as REAL as it gets. The intersection of disparaging fanfic + sexism/misogyny can't be overstated—women (esp queer women)'s unpaid work is often treated as a "hobby," not worthy of uplifting. I'm here to uplift! The risk is worth it—I would have nothing without fanfic & I'm proud. Younger creators shouldn't feel shame about writing/reading fanfic. We should ALL approach it as a legitimate medium. In fact, MOST new media these days is transformative "fanwork" of SOME kind, whether it's inspired by, based on, or outright rebooting existing worlds.

Plus, we queer folk simply deserve to see our stories in the mainstream media and to see the characters we fall in love, identify with, and root for to get their happily ever afters.

TL;DR: I'm keeping my name and history. Hopefully, I'll be successful in original fiction, but if not, I'll still be a fangirl. Please consider supporting me + other creators attempting to dip into original works. Follow or subscribe to my ko-fi for previews, updates, access to my discord community where I share exclusive content, and more: https://ko-fi.com/castielslostwings FIRE & ICE IS NOW AVAILABLE THROUGH MULTIPLE PLATFORMS! Ko-Fi subscribers will have the option to buy signed copies & merch bundles! The link to purchase will also be posted there first.

A MAJOR thank you to my friends, editors, and to everyone who in my server for supporting and encouraging me to put myself out there and try something new. Love you guys so much. <3 Thank you to @chaoticdean for the beautiful cover. Many more thank yous to come. P.S. If you are reading this and know anyone with a platform who might be interested in receiving a free copy in exchange for promo (only if they enjoy, ofc), please holler at me, I can use all the help I can get!

What Did You Eat Yesterday? 2 Ep 5 Stray Thoughts

Last time, Shiro had to seriously consider taking over the firm because Oo-sensei is introducing him as such now to their major clients. Kenji's coworker learned that the owner wife is planning to divorce after their daughter goes to college. We also got to see someone else cook and that was a lot of fun.

I'm excited to learn about one of Shiro's exes since Kenji isn't his normal type. I'm curious what he was like that it still has Shiro panicking about the regular kinds of problems homes experience.

Oh this guy doesn't appreciate that Shiro's cooking is love. He also has a cat.

The layout is a little different and has a more masculine feel.

Oh no Shiro was always a simp. He just got walked all over in this relationship and put on a pretty face. I am judging Shiro for how he thinks about Kohinata and Wataru.

Kenji isn't your type. Sir, he also helps you with domestic tasks and cheers you on constantly!!

Grocery Clerk finally spoke to Shiro!!!

I'm so excited about them deciding on a new Christmas menu together.

This beef stew is good. I wonder what instant cubes he was using.

I like that they kept the mentaiko dip.

This entire dinner scene was so beautiful. These two can still have a wonderful Christmas together even if they can't maintain the exact tradition because they think about each other.

Look at that. Kenji went out for a solution to the drain and made the rice.

Wow, fuck Nobu.

Shiro is crying! He can see how much Kenji cares about them and their home. I'm feeling so much!

Well that was beautiful. I don't care about this type shit, Shiro deserves someone who puts as much into what they have as he does. I adore Kenji with my entire being. I'm so relieved that I have this show to recover on a Friday when I get home, especially after I just did two loads of laundry and made food.

8, 14, and 64!! (If any of these have been picked then pick the ones you want to be asked :) )

YAY thank you, friend!! I've answered a couple of these so I'll pick some fun ones for you. 💕

10. Cltr+f "blinks" on your WIP & copy paste the first sentence/paragraph that comes up Ed blinks and rapidly scrolls up and down the page. That can’t be it. A studio doesn’t just fucking cancel someone that successful. Ed had reviewed all the film grosses, both domestic and international; the numbers were there. And Ed saw the way the man danced; Stede was a phenomenon on his feet. And HB Low just let him fucking get away? Were they absolutely insane?

14. how do you write emotional scenes? Do you ever feel what the characters feel? Do you draw from personal experiences? I rely a lot on music to get me in the right headspace. My go-to song, because I feel it gets into ALL the big Ed/Stede emotions for nearly every situation, is The Story. I will literally listen to every version I have on it on loop for however long it takes while thinking about whatever situation the characters are in and then go. I do sometimes draw from personal experience, but alas, I haven't had a Great Big Love like Ed and Stede, so when it calls for that, it's mostly just the power of imagination.

11. Link your three five favorite fics right now I haven't had as much time as I'd like to be reading, but a few that are lingering on my brain right now!

2 Fluff 2 Furrious by @monksofthescrew: the sequel to the PHENOMENAL Fluff. Summary: In which Ed and Stede and their (!) ten (!!) dogs take an unhinged and perhaps ill-advised roadtrip in a dog bus. It's cute. It's emotional. It's Ed and Stede stupidly in love with SO MANY CUTE DOGS. And it's an absolutely impeccable Ed voice. WIP, just one chapter for now, but I've read the next and it's SO GOOD.

Moment of Truth by @trans-top-stede and karawrites: It's the most gloriously frustrating time loop; set during 2x06, Ed and Stede can't come until they learn how to fucking TALK TO EACH OTHER!!!!! I'm a few chapters behind and I am very excited to catch up this weekend, but oh my god, the EMOTIONS and the SEX it's all so good.

The Incident at Direfold Manor by @helloimjennsco: GOOD SPOOKY HORROR. It's the kind of uncomfortable feeling, something lurking in the shadows watching you vibe and it's SO UNSETTLING I LOVE IT AND AM SO CURIOUS TO SEE WHERE IT GOES. Still a WIP, and this is one I'm REALLY glad to be reading as it posts because the twisty turnies are so tasty.

The Tolling Bells by @edsbacktattoo: Recently completed, absolutely gorgeous fic with a unique premise that feels all the more poignant after the cancellation. I just keep thinking about how there is NO POSSIBLE UNIVERSE THAT EXISTS, real or fictional, where Ed and Stede DON'T find each other and fall in love, and how lucky we are to get to witness that. Good shit.

I Spit on Your Grave by @epersonae: A complete one shot! I have accepted this fic as canon now. The conversation Ed and Stede have is one I was really craving in S2, and this version of it scratches that itch perfectly. And because it's epersonae, you know it's some really beautiful, emotional, evocative writing.

Get to know the fic writer ask game!

TULIN MY CHILD IVE NEVER BEEN SO EXCITED THAT IS MY SON!!!!!! THATS MY BOY!!!!! lol I love that the game points you towards Rito first bc no matter what the game wanted me to do, I was going to Rito village first bc I wanted to see all my CHILDRENN

Where the FUCK is Kass.

Not me avoiding both the entire East portion of the map in preference of going to Gerudo to see Riju

YOOOOO GIBDOS????? Need the suns song

OH LIGHTNINGGGGGG interesting I am DIGGING THIS and we get to go into Gerudo without disguise???? BANGERRRRRRR

I want my HORSE 🥲 silence my trusty white stallion where art thou

I’ve made it to Hateno and I’m fucking sick of these Koroks, like get up you lazy tree spirit are you fucking KIDDING me

ZELDA’S HOUSE!!!!! IS!!! THE!!!! HATENO!!!! HOUSE!!!! THEY LIVED TOGETHER!!! We been knew but OH MY GOD ITS SO FUCKING OBVIOUS WITH ALL THESE IMPLICATIONS. HIS HAIR TIE. THENEW TUNIC. THE KIDS DRAWING OF ZELDA. I AM GOING FERAL THEY ARE SO GODDAMN DOMESTIC

Yo where the FUCK is Kass.

Okay okay I’m having a time with paragliding so I’m just going to do Rito Village’s thing so I can get Tulin’s power

Lmao they’re not gunna kill off the babies like they did with the last champions…. Right?

LOL OKAY OKAY COOL THEY WONT CRISIS AVERTED but MAN I’ve fucked myself bc it is nearly 5a and my sister is coming over at 8a 💀

my HORSEEEE I HAVE MY HORSE BACK yo that is TRULY the best thing I missed my horse so much

Okay now I’m going to do the tears of the dragon quest bc WOOOOOHWEEEEE I miss Zelda

This was a fucking mistake it is 3am and I have to be up in four hours for work and I’m SOBBING bc ZELDA HAS SACRIFICED SO FUCKING MUCH I CANNOT DEAL WITH THIS LIKE WHAT THE FUCK NINTENDO

At least I have the sword 🥲

I’m loving everyone sending asks and talking to me about this game I love each of you SO MUCH… not as much as I love Tulin and Riju but still LOL

Yo I’m so fucking sad bc of Zelda rn I think I’m just gunna get a shit ton of shrines and explore the depths

THE DEPTHS ARE SO FUN AND COOL!!! I also think I found a temple in eldin ???? COOOOOOOOLLLLL !!!!!

What’s not cool? Yunobo being all macho macho man bruh when that is not the sensitive little Goron I know and love. Marbled rock roast? Sureeee Cuz that’s not suspicious.

Okay I’m going to avoid Zora’s domain and head to the great plateau…. Why the fuck is the Old Man’s Cabin inhabited by the Sheikah what the fuck is this

Okay so the Yiga are just camped out in Akkala too??? Bitches. Next thing you know Kohga is alive and in the depths LMAO

Now I’m going to Zora’s Domain bc it’s my last pit stop before I actually continue the story LOL… scratch that Imma head to Tarrey Town and see how the fam is doin! And !!! Hudson has a daughter!! Guess that answers my question as to how long it’s been between games lmao

I keep procrastinating Zora’s Domain OOOOFT but I’ll go there now for reals—Sidon is engaged??? Man was like “Omg bestie it’s been forevs btw this is my fiancé” like damn okay how long has it been since Link went to Zora’s domain

I’ve been searching for Kass and I’m having major doubt atp 🥲 I want my beloved songbird back

OKAY DUNGEON TIMEEEEE Imma do Yunobo and while I know it wants me to save Riju for last I simply cannot stay away for long so I’ll go there next!

Yo these temples are fire I got majorly concerned with the Wind Temple but it genuinely makes sense to have a more familiar groundwork for players to begin with that’s just different enough that you notice so it prepares you for the more complex classic Zelda dungeon twist the rest of them have

I’m annoyed all of their abilities require me like ‘asking’ their spirits rather than having a function button to summon it at will

Except for tulin bc he is my child and all is forgiven. And Riju bc she’s pretty and I love her

DID I FUCKING MANIFEST KOHGA BEING ALIVE AND IN THE DEPTHS?????? BITTTTCCCCHHHHHH I thought these people be straight up loyal but nah he ain’t dead, just chillin in the depths

Yo I thought I was at the end of the game but nope I find out that the Zelda I’ve been chasing is a puppet WOW who would have guessed 🙃

BUT THE WAY GANONDORF WAS LIKE “using her made it so easy to lure you into traps” like my man KNOWS

Okay okay fifth Sage down and now I’m going to the Hyrule castle chasm

Was no one going to tell me this might be difficult bc I’m just tryna sneak through but that ain’t happening LOL

I’m going to shower and eat dinner and THEN I’ll beat the game

Oh my god we back at the place we started I LOVE FULL CIRCLES

I’m going to fucking sob this has been such a good fight!!! Getting to use the master sword the entire time >>>>>

(Even though i legitimately used a lynel bow and bombs to deal most of my damage to Ganondorf… don’t judge me I am ✨strategic✨ and I only managed fo do real damage if I did arrows, arrows, dodge dodge dodge, flurry rush, backpedal it up)

ZELDA BEING MY HOMIE IN THIS DRAGON FIGHT WE LOVE TO SEE IT !!! She makes me so happy she went straight for Link to save him bc that’s simply instinct

🥹🥹🥹🥹IM SOBBING THIS IS SO FUCKINNNNGGGGGGGGGGGG THIS IS SO GOOD I LOVE HER AND I LOVE THAT WE GET TO DIVE AFTER HER AND ACTUALLY CATCH HER 🥹🥹🥹

Lifting her out of the water… Zelda waking up to the feeling of a warm loving embrace… telling Link “I’m home” and that she has “so much to tell” him… I’m going to need another box of tissues bc I be EMOTIONAL

Awe all the sages pledging themselves to Zelda

Link just being a silent supportive boyfriend bc homeslice can and will do everything to protect Zelda (and okay he already did a ceremony for this but let me have my shipper goggles on)

I’m just going to say it. This might be my favorite game. And I’m a diehard Majora’s Mask fan. Like that’s been my favorite for a WHILE. I miss the simplicity for some of the game mechanics but thoroughly enjoy the new creations we can make. I also understand zonai devices now so when Kass comes in the DLC it’s over for y’all

Anyway botw/totk zelink is canon and no one can change my mind

Hi, it’s me, the asker who was so curious about Danny at school ✨

I got three things to say, silly thing first, 1. I’m so curious about what Danny’s diet is gonna be. I was rereading that chapter, and if Vlad has to eat meat to stoke the flames, does that mean Danny has to go vegetarian? That would be so fucking funny, I’m ngl 😂 but also sad, bc then he’d be thinking about Sam all the time 🥺 anyways, I’m just interested to see what you do with it 👀

2. You got me thinking about enemies to lovers, hardcore. And I realized, when I enjoy that kind of ship, I’m not here to see them become all lovey-dovey and domestic. I’m here to see the pain, and the toxicity, and the deep codependency of it all. The ‘I hate you, but I can’t leave you’, and the ‘you might kill me one day, and I embrace that.’ If you’ve watched Hannibal, you know exactly what I mean 😂 For Vlad and Danny, I don’t really give a fuck if it’s pompep or badgercereal, i just want angst and codependency 😈 I think that’s part of what I like about your story so much, is that it’s toeing the line between the two relationships. Halfway parental, and halfway toxic/romantic love.

3. You’ve fucking ruined me for other fanfiction rn 😭😂 I can’t read anything else for more than five minutes 🥲 Partially bc I’m so invested in the story, but also bc your writing style IS SO FUCKING GOOD. YOU SHOULD BE WRITING ACTUAL BOOKS, LIKE WTF. Anywayyysss, I’ll just curl up into a little ball of boredom on the floor till you update again 😂💕

Sending much looooove, 😘 I hope the brain to fanfic pipeline is working out for you 🤌

Hello and holy shit! What an ego-bloating kind and generous ask this is! Let me jump right in:

1. I don't want to spoil the plot too much, but Danny's diet is going to be key in unraveling a very important part of Vlad's enigma, and I cannot wait to get to that point. I've been sprinkling crumbs of information throughout the story thus far, laying down a foundation upon which to build this Big Thing, and the next chapter (14) will—or should, anyway—finally begin to deliver on it.

2. My friend, you've just given me an epiphany: it's not so much Enemies to Lovers that we adore, I suspect, as it is Enemies and Lovers. That's exactly the tag I'd use to describe Hannigram, and it's such a different and exciting dynamic. I've never quite—well, scratch that—okay, I've never written Enemies and Lovers in such depth as I am with Familiar. There's something darkly satisfying about letting lovers remain ugly; the notion that deep, abiding affection can exist in tandem with fear and disgust; that even monsters—in the very act of being monstrous, or perhaps because they are monstrous and not in spite of their monstrosity—are capable of loving and being loved.

3. Frhgahrglahrglahg I'm going to print and frame this one and hang it on my wall for days when I feel utterly inept. I've been writing fanfiction for a while now, and I've written volumes of silly, embarrassing, poorly-executed tripe, so if I haven't at least gotten a little bit good at what I'm doing, I doubt I ever will 😆 That said, I'm putting a lot of effort into Familiar, I mean pulling out every stop and employing every nut and bolt in my mental toolbox to craft a good story (and reading. Always reading), partly as a challenge to myself and partly out of sheer love for this great ship and its fandom. Everyone here is so nice and welcoming and awesome. I only hope my tiny contribution continues to entertain.

Speaking of which, the wait for this next chapter shouldn't be long. The feedback I've been receiving is phenomenal, and it's definitely helped to fuel me along when my mania wavers. I'm incredibly grateful to you and everyone reading enjoying this story. Thank you thank you ♥

amazing! i don't know if you've ever done the alphabet headcanons before. but would you do them for either percy or nico whenever you get the chance? thank you so much!!! ⚡️🌷

Asdajkfhsakjh Percyyyyy my beloved 😍 I would love to do these and I will do some for Nico later as well, but I have never done the alphabet one so if anyone has any suggestions on how to fix it please let me know

Also and this is a big ALSO obviously all of these characters are at the ages up point. Let’s not be weird. And for Percy wel let’s say you either also went on the quests or you went instead of Annabeth bc baby if she went and you didn’t there’s no chance

Also I am using Logan Lerman as Percy because he is the definition of right person wrong time he was perfect

A= Affection (how do they show affection)

Percy definitely is a physical touch kind of person. If you go on yet another quest it’s grounding to him. Hr will pull you in a tight hug when he knows your safe. We know he kisses you anytime you two have to go separately. Meanwhile at home he likes to wrap his arms around you whenever he can. He is also pretty big on acts if service, he is just very thoughtful to everything you say and do. Are you hungry he stops somewhere before he gets home and gets every type of your favorite snack. Loves to spoil you with both of these.

B= Beautiful (what is their pet name for you)

I think this happened on accident. Like either you guys just started dating or you’d been hanging around so often that you basically were and he had to ask for something. “Hey babe could you pass me my pen?”

You notice immediately but it was kind of cute so you start reaching over for his pen. He kind of freezes as you reach over as he starts to realize what he said

“Shit did I—“

“Yeah yeah you did.”

He begins to panic and starts apologizing immediately and you have to cut him off and tell him you liked it. He malfunctions for awhile because he’s not sure what that means but he tries to call you that again when he can.

C= Cuddles (Are they a cuddly person?)

Oh my god read above, yes! He loves to cuddle! He likes having a constant in his life, ie you. On quests when you would both have to sleep anywhere strange you would often find yourself having fallen asleep on his shoulders and vice versa. It became a very comforting thing to both of you, and you guys did everytime. Grover is the equivalent of Charles Boyle and is screaming internally the first time because he thinks the two of you are perfect together.

D= Domestic (Do they want to settle down? What kind of future do they want)

Luckily for me, we get a lot of these answers in canon. Percy 1084918484843939% wants to settle down and stop worrying about saving the world for a damn minute and find a nice place for the two of you. He is in love with the thought of you as a parent so if you want any kids he will jump with excitement because he thinks you’ll be best and while he’s scared he may not do as well he still wants to live every aspect of what some may think is a mundane life with you. It’s his dream.

E= End (How would they break up with their partners if they had to? What would make them do that in the first place?)

This is absolutely never happening unless it’s life or death for you. Like some god or entity has to have the power to end your life and you and Percy are separated at the moment. He would probably go to you with tears in his eyes and tell you that it is probably best for the two of you to part ways. You know something is going on but once he sets his mind to something it’s almost impossible to change it. Even if he takes care of whatever is threatening him if he sees you really are safer without him he will stay away.

F= Fear (Whats something that terrifies them)/ Fiance (How would they propose)

For the fear aspect is losing. Not being able to save you. Anything of the sort we see he is willing to risk his life for someone he loves so not being able to get there in time is his worst nightmare. Again thanks to canon we know that he’s actually terrified of drowning.

When he proposes he’s going to try and be as romantic as possible. Take you to the first place he kissed you kind of romantic. But it is a Percy so he gets kind of tongue tied when he’s trying to tell you how much he cares about you and after a while the “will you marry me?” comes out or you have to kiss him to get him back on track

G= Gentle (How gentle are they emotionally, physically?)

An angel. Percy takes it so slow with you to begin with, you definitely set the boundaries whether you know it or not. He’s seen the worst type of guy first hand and would never try to do anything to hurt you or rush you. He’s also very emotionally in tune with you, he will know when you need someone to just be there and when you need to talk and he’s okay with doing either until you feel better

H= Hugs (Are they a hugger? What do their hugs feel like? How much do they like to hug?)

Yes. Yeah. Absolutely. You know the hug in movies when characters A&B haven’t seen eachother in forever and A holds them so tightly and lifts up B just enough where their toes are off the ground? Yeah that’s the kind of hugs he gives all the time. He knows what it’s like to almost lose you, he takes all the hugs he can get. Even if it’s not that dramatic he hugs very tightly he wishes he didn’t have to let go.

I= I love you (how soon did they know they were in love? How long did it take to say the words?)

Honestly uncle Rick was looking out because this really is all answered.

It takes him forever to realize he’s in love with you. He knows he loves you but I mean it probably takes some major battle for him to realize it’s more than that. Once he figures it out though he will tell you almost immediately.

J= Jealousy (Do they get jealous easily? Do they try and make you jealous)

Yeah. And this comes with anything. Anyone you have history friendship or otherwise. But not in the creepy possessive way but in the way that he wishes he had been there. He may feel like he is keeping you from a different life. When you get excited even with a friend and remember any adventures you have he worries you don’t have as much fun with him and he is stressed fam. He trusts you like I said he would just rather be with you.

No he does absolutely not try and make you jealous. Except maybe with his power for fun. But with other people no. However, homeboy is oblivious when other people are into him so their blatant flirting probably goes over his head. You have to spell it out for him and while he thinks it’s cute you were jealous he won’t let it happen again.

K= Kisses (what do their kisses feel like? Where do they like to kiss you?)

Similar to his hugs. He kisses very strongly. The ones where he breathes in as he starts to kiss you just in case it’s the last time. When it’s the two of you he likes to kiss you more passionately but he waits for you to initiate. He likes grabbing your hair and slightly pulling you closer to him. Helps him remember it’s all real.

L= Littles (Do they want kids? What are they like around kids? How many?)

Oops already answered this but yes of course! He probably wants at least two so no one feels lonely, he remembers having to constantly move and he thinks if they at least have a sibling it won’t be so bad if you all do have to move. We see how he is around Estelle, he’s naturally kind and caring around kids and he would be the BEST dad.

M= Mornings

He likes to cook. Whether you like it or not he’s up in the morning making blue pancakes. Does not mean he’s a morning person he just like to do so when you wake up. He enjoys sleeping in or cuddling for as long as you can before having to get up. Gets you coffee/juice as you start getting ready for the day. He waits until the last possible second to get ready but he’s ready to go in like 15 minutes. He’d rather hang around with you.

N= Nights

Definitely prefers cooking breakfast to dinner but he will still try and help or will order take out if neither of you are feeling up to it. He thought your skin care routine was kind of pointless at first, mainly because he didn’t really get it. But now he’s almost excited to do it with you, because no matter what anyone says it’s relaxing and he enjoys this winding down activity. I see him putting on a movie or show before bed and cuddling until you fall asleep and then he will turn it off, and then probably run his hand up and down your arm until he drifts off

O= Open up (When do they feel comfortable enough to open up? Is it all at once or painfully slow? Do you have to dig?)

Honestly, while it’s easy to read Percy’s feelings it isn’t as easy for him to explain why certain things bother him or to talk about his past. It would have to be when he isn’t feeling upset for you to be able to bring up talking about his childhood, yours he wants to hear everything about. He tried to play it off when does eventually talk about it but he’s been through some shit. He doesn’t like burdening people with why he’s upset though, even if he isn’t burdening anyone especially you.

You really have to dig for him. And while he does tell you eventually he’d rather just move on from it. There’s some people that while he refuses to forget, he doesn’t want to talk about them because it gets kind of painful. And yes I’m talking about beckendorf. It’s not because he isn’t comfortable sharing on his part, it’s just talking about things can make it worse before it makes it better and that’s no fun.

P= Patience (Are they quick to anger? How do they calm down?)

Percy is pretty patient. Unless someone is hurting his friends or more importantly you, he doesn’t get riled up easily. Usually has his witty remarks to annoy the other person back. But man, get him angry enough and he can be terrifying. Usually, as long as he doesn’t have a storm forming around him a simple touch to his arm will make him realize you’re okay and he will start calming down. But he does usually need to walk it off. Prefers if you go with him to help through it.

Q= Quiet/Quizzes(What do they like to do when they have time to be alone? What fun things do they remember about you? DO they remember everything?)

Percy would rather not be alone honestly. I feel like his anxiety just shoots through the roof after all of those quests. It does help if he’s around water and he go swimming and relax. Waters always calmed him it doesn’t really change.

Percy remembers EVERYTHING about you. Like I said before he’s a big acts of service guy so if he sees something that he knows you will love doing or will love to have he’s doing his best to do said activity.

R= Recovery (How you take of them and vice versa after a battle?)

Hard to take care of someone who can just heal himself with water or ambrosia. But say you guys are far inland with nothing in sight you are going to have to use all of your persuasion to let you help him. He would rather focus on you. And because he’s going to use all of the supplies on you this can be a struggle. Most of the recovery is going to be making sure he’s okay or just letting him fall into you because he is exhausted.

Him on the other hand is very gentle with you. Drawing water around whatever he can to heal you as much as he can and if there’s no water or the injury is too big he is making sure you get the ambrosia and nectar. You take priority to him. If you’re totally fine like I said he would rather just lean on you than anything else but he still loves when you try and help him. Falls in love over any bandages you may put on him, seriously he loves that you’re worried about him.

S= Safety/Solution (How protective are they? How do they solve problems)

I’m sure you can tell by my above answers but very very protective. He values other peoples lives at the risk of his own and it’s something that you both love and are terrified of. He is an emotional problem solver, he is witty and clever as we see in the labyrinth battle but he will take whatever course he can to get you safe.

T= Try/ Touch (How much effort do they put in? When they need or want your touch what do they do? How often do they do this?)

These are hard because so much of this is repeated so I apologize 😭 but anyways Percy puts all the effort in. He doesn’t take any relationship light and I mean that to include friendships. If for some reason you guys are long distance for a quest or maybe you’re visiting family he will make sure to keep in contact. And in the relationship he keeps very important dates in the front of his mind so he isn’t someone to miss birthdays or holidays or anything of the sort. He also puts in effort to make sure you enjoy said holidays.

Percy often needs touch just to calm down. Not from being angry by years of almost dying has him anxious and he likes have his lifeline close to him just to let him know you’re there. I think without think he will outstretch his hand to you for you to hold it. He often times does not realize he does this if it’s a bad day. If he doesn’t get much sleep he likes to rest his head on your shoulder. If he’s having a regular good day or you’re out he probably still enjoys holding your hand and as stated previously lots of hugs from behind.

U= Ugly Side (What a pet peeve of yours they have? Bad habits?)

Percy doesn’t mean to do this and it’s not in a rude or condescending way but he often questions the bings you say. He doesn’t even realize the way he asks could be taken as rude but it used to make you feel like he didn’t trust what you were doing or planning or maybe didn’t know better. I’m so serious he just wants details on the plan or what you guys are doing he thinks the world of you, his questions are more about how he fits into the plan or how he can help not to attack you or make you sound dumb.

V= Vanity (Do they concern themselves over how they look?)

Percy doesn’t like to look like a hobo but he also isn’t going to spend a ridiculous amount of time getting ready. Unless he’s taking you out the he will dress appropriately. He would rather be comfortable and be ready to fight something or run if he needs to.

W= Whole (What makes them feel complete?)

Family. You, his mom, Estelle, Grover, Tyson,even Paul. The people he know will do anything for him and he would do the same. The people that wouldn’t leave him or disappear. The more of his family is around the better he feels, and then going home with you at the end of the night.

Y= Yuck (What do they not like in a partner?)

I would probably say someone who’s micromanaging. Not in the Annabeth I always have a plan way. But I’m the way that they nitpick anything he does. Percy likes someone who can have fun every once in awhile. At the same time he wouldn’t want someone who can’t be serious when they need to be. Honestly other than that Percy is pretty flexible he thinks life experiences shared takes weight over anything else.

Z= Zzzzz (How do they sleep? Sleeping Habits?)

On you. It’s still hard for any demigod to sleep. He keeps riptide on his nightstand religiously. He still worries something will happen to you so whether he admits it or not he is up for a while after you’ve gone to bed. Best way for him to fall asleep first is if you’re rubbing his back and talking about anything. It reminds him you guys are and have been fine and he will let himself drift off. Even then he would rather you lay on him and he stay up for a bit, just in case.

okay but I would love your thoughts on what the boys reactions are when flatmate! matty and you finally get together!!

like obviously they wouldn't be shocked, I imagine they even had a bet on but I would love if just one of them was genuinely flabbergasted. in my mind it's ross bc he just seems oblivious and takes mattys incessant "we're just close mates!!!" seriously bc him and matty are just close mates so why wouldn't you be?

I imagine you invite them all over and matty makes them sit down and you go make tea and coffee for everyone. you bring it in and sit next to matty and go "okay so we have some news-" and matty is just so fucking excited he interrupts you and just goes "WE'RE DATING SHES MY GIRLFRIEND AND WE'RE IN LOVE" and you're like "babe!!! woah!!! give the men a second to breath!! (but i love you too that was very sweet)" The immediate reaction is a groan from George, a smile from Adam and a completely shocked face from Ross. at first matty is like "George??? that's the worst reaction ever?? you're meant to be my best mate and-" George just cuts him off and goes "matty I am really happy for you but couldn't you have got together literally a week later? now I adam £20." this causes him and Adam to burst out laughing whilst you and matty just sit there shocked (Ross is also shocked but that's because he still hasn't processed that you're together lol)

Ross eventually says "...but you always said you were just mates???" and Adam is like "Ross love, seriously did you see them in bed together cuddling? or how about when they dance in the kitchen together when they make breakfast and tea for eachother? or when matty hears her sniffle once and goes bat shit crazy and gets 200 tissues and loads of cough sweets? it was pretty fucking clear those two idiots were head over heels!" the whole time they've been looking at eachother during this convo so Ross looks over to you two for confirmation of this shocking turn of events and just sees you staring longingly into eachothers eyes and he's like "fucking hell have they always looked at eachother like that?" and adam and George just do a slow nod and Ross says "god I'm stupid"

aaaaaaaah this shit is SO CUTE. kind of obsessed with the idea that adam's the first to know/notice that you and matty are in love with each other actually - like because he's so easy to talk to and kind, both you and matty inadvertently end up just letting your guards down a bit and gushing about the other to adam. and he doesn't say anything to either of you about how the other feels, he just does a classic adam hann knowing look (you know the vibe) and waits to see how long it'll take one of you to admit it. and then adam and george are chatting in rehearsal one day and you and matty are being cute with each other in the corner (fuck knows where ross is... off somewhere being sexy as per usual probs), and george nudges adam and goes "look at the pair of them" and he tells adam about how domestic the two of you are at home and that he had said you were like a married couple. adam's like "they've both been pining for the other to me for years its insane. maybe now you've said something they'll realise and get together now. i bet it'll happen this weekend". george is like "hmmm no they're both too stubborn to admit it so soon. give it another week to sink in" and they literally put a bet on it lmao. but i don't even think it's like a planned reveal when they find out you and matty are together, i think the boys are just over at the flat chilling and you and matty kiss in front of them (like how you used to do head kisses, just a casual kiss on the lips as you pass each other) and the boys are like WHAT WAS THAT and matty's like "oh yeah we're a thing now turns out we've been in love with each other for a while lol. but now it's official" and then the exchange about the bet happens, like you said. ross really is in shock though - he's like "i've played wingman for both of you so many times??? you were in love with each other and living in the same flat and i was wingmanning you so you could take other people home???" and matty's like "yeah lol we both literally just realised on saturday night that it was requited love". and ross thinks for a minute and goes "wait i literally wingmanned you on saturday night WTF???" and you're like "yeah and then he came in to ask me for a condom and decided he wanted to shag me instead lol" and matty's like "babe please it was making love not shagging" and the boys are like "ok we're happy for you but please shut the fuck up now" lmao <3

we could leave the christmas lights up ‘til january | stede x ed x izzy

read it here or read it on ao3 <3

this was supposed to be the fic that introduced the au, so if you like just pretend this one came first. though, none of the fics in the au necessarily have to be read in order, it will just be a bunch of one shots for this idea!!

but i’ve only written fluff once for this fandom and not even this trio, so it’s overdue. i feel like this fic is a bit meh but it’s definitely more to provide some context for the au. i spent so long working on all of their backstories im actually pretty proud of them akdjwjr

off note and it doesn’t matter but i started the bbc show “uncle” that con o’neill is in (yes i watched it for him) and it’s actually really good and i am SO in love with val <3

but enjoy!! please tell me what you think / what you’d like to see for this au :)

title is from “lover” by taylor swift x

2.2k words — modern day au, domestic fluff, christmas, ed suffers from chronic pain

more from this au; and now i see daylight

Ed was fucking tired.

It was almost eight o’clock by the time that he finally pulled into the driveway, and all he planned on doing was having a shower, and going to bed. He didn’t even fancy his dinner, which he knew Stede would've kept in the fridge ready for him to heat up.

He didn’t like Fridays. Fridays were the only day that Izzy and Stede got out of work a good couple of hours before Ed did, and he didn’t like being left out on their time together.

But he was home now. He could just… relax.

It didn’t help that his knee had been killing him all day, which, he would admit, was his fault. He had woken up a lot later than he should have, and in his rush to get ready and leave the house he had forgotten to put on his knee brace. Which basically fucked his leg for the whole day, considering his work was all pretty manual.

Ed had been working at the garage for coming up three years, and he loved it. He loved the fact that he was always bustling about doing something, something that kept his mind and hands occupied. It had taken some time to fall into the flow of his work schedule, but he had and he was so thankful for that.

It had been Izzy who had originally gotten him the job. At the time, Izzy had also worked there. It was the first thing that he had helped him with after Ed had gotten out of rehab.

Of course, Izzy didn’t work there anymore; after he’d lost his leg, there was no chance of him filling his post back up there. But Stede had been kind enough to offer him a job in the little café tucked away in his library.

Ed didn’t mind working without either of his partners there. It just meant that seeing them again after work was even more exciting, something he looked forwards to every day he was apart from them.

His eyes screwed, wincing as he turned to get out of the car. He didn’t even bother grabbing his bag, in his urge to just relax. He could sort that shit out in the morning. Ed was just looking forwards to his warm house, his partners, and some peace and quiet.

…which, he realised when he opened the door, he would not be getting just yet.

The first thing he heard was Stede’s rambling. Stede, bless him, did ramble all the time, granted. But it was one of those do as I say rambles, one he usually ended up using on Ed actually.

Though, for once, it wasn’t directed at him, but at Izzy.

“…be half an hour max and we can do the rest tomorrow, or I can just do it all myself tonight. What do you think, the red? Or the green? I do have more of the green but the red goes better with the gold-”

“Jesus Christ.” Izzy sounded as wiped out as Ed felt.

Ed shrugged his coat from his shoulders, and kicked his shoes off on the rug that Stede had put out now that the wetter weather was more common than not. The warmth of the house was like heaven, and he took a moment to just stand there, leant against the wall as Stede carried on his rambling in the living room.

The colder weather was never favourable, his knee always hurt worse in the cold even with the brace. But without it? He doubted he’d be able to be on his feet for too long the next day, but luckily it was Saturday, which they all had off of work.

Thank fuck.

After he realised that he had been stood there for too long, Ed finally made his way from the hallway into the living room and- just stopped in the doorway. Staring.

“What the fuck is all this?”

Pretty much the entire floor space was covered with different Christmas decorations — ornaments, tinsel, fairy lights, the lot. In the middle of it all knelt on the floor, unsurprisingly, was Stede. He had a rope of tinsel in one hand, the other dug into a box which seemed to just contain more of the shit.

Izzy was tucked up in his armchair by the fireplace, and seemed to be pointedly ignoring the mess around him, as he had his phone in his hand and a blanket draped over his lap.

“Ed!” Stede whipped his head around and smiled, like a fucking holiday bomb hadn’t been deployed in their living room. “I didn’t hear you come in, I’m a little preoccupied. What colour do you like best? Izzy isn’t being helpful in the slightest.”

Izzy scoffed. “Told you to toss it all, didn't I?”

“Oh don’t be such a Scrooge, Israel.”

Ed was still stood in the doorway, blinking at the room in front of him. He knew that Stede was fond of traditions and holidays — he had been awfully skilled at decorating the house for Halloween, had actually scared a good few kids with the fuckery he put outside the house. But they hadn’t really talked much about Christmas.

It was the first of December for fuck sake.

“Ed?” Stede put the box down and got to his feet, frowning a little.

“I think he’s in a state of shock.” Was all Izzy supplied, clearly just to jest Stede.

“I just…” Ed waved his hand around, unsure what to say. “Didn’t remember our house being so glittery.”

Stede stepped over the decorations laid out on the floor to greet Ed in the doorway, leant in to plant a kiss on his lips, and for a moment the decorations didn’t matter because he was home and didn’t want to be anywhere else. He mumbled a hello to Stede, kissed him again, and once Stede had returned to his spot on the floor Ed finally walked into the room, crossed over to Izzy’s chair to lean down and greet him with a kiss too.

“I’d go back out if I were you.” Izzy nodded towards the door once Ed had perched himself on the armrest of his chair, and looked up to see Stede glaring playfully.

“I’d take a lot less time doing it all if you helped.”

Izzy pulled the blanket off of his lap, and reached down to fumble with his prosthetic, and after a moment he took it off, careless as he let it drop to the floor. “Can’t help.”

Ed snorted a laugh, though Stede’s expression was very unamused. “You can’t use that to get out of everything.”

“Yes I can.”

Stede was pouting, and looked over at Ed, gesturing to the decorations around him. “You don’t think this is all pointless, do you?”

“Never said it was pointless.” Izzy mumbled from his side.

Ed let his gaze drift over the decorations again. Nowhere that he had ever lived had ever decorated so heavily for Christmas. When he was a kid his mother would put up a tree and some stockings, but that was it. When he and Izzy had been roommates out of school, they’d never really bothered with much either, just a shitty little plastic tree until they went back to their families for the holidays.

But Ed knew that Stede had led a very different life up until the point that they had met. His life had always been lavish, always had the expenses to celebrate holidays however he wanted. He had no doubt that the decorations over their living room floor were nothing compared to where he had lived with his parents, or with Mary before them — it wasn’t like their house had the room for it all — but it was still more than Ed or Izzy had ever had.

Ed didn’t hate Christmas, not at all. He held fond memories of his mother from that time, secret santas with Izzy (that, granted, he’d had to basically force Izzy to take part in), and more recently, the first Christmas that they had all been together for.

But this would be their first Christmas living together.

“It’s not pointless, mate, no,” Ed shook his head, leant down to lift up a little ornament of an angel into his hands. It was delicate and pretty, and nothing like he and Izzy would’ve owned before they had known and loved Stede. “S’just… y’know, we’ve never really seen the point in decorating the place for Christmas.”

“Really?” Stede had his mouth open, shocked, like Ed had just said something scandalous. “Never? But it’s so- it’s so lovely, Ed, Izzy, it’s such a pretty time of year.”

Ed just gave a little shrug. “The decor and shit has never been so important I guess.”

“Right, then,” Stede nodded, and he had that look on his face — his stubborn look, the look he got when he was about to do something that neither Izzy or Ed would be able to stop once it was in motions. “It’s settled. You two are going to have a real Christmas, done properly.”

His determination made Ed smile, and how could he say no to that? That much passion and stubbornness and- fuck, he just loved Stede so much.

Loved both of them so much.

“Sure thing, love,” Ed nodded, smiled. “But how about we stick a pin in it until tomorrow, yeah? ‘Cause I’m fucked, and just really wanna go to bed-” he moved to stand from the arm of Izzy’s armchair, but he moved in a way that sent shooting pain from his knee and throughout his leg, and immediately cut himself off, gritted out a “fuck” as he stood still.

Izzy had long since zoned out of the previous conversation, had been reading some news articles on his phone like the old man he was, but Ed immediately felt his hand on his back. “Edward?”

“What’s wrong, love?” Stede was insisting, too, and Ed looked up and watched as he scrambled to his feet to get to where Ed was stood.

“Nothing, nothing,” Ed waved them off, inhaled deeply to recompose himself. Sometimes he forgot how much his knee actually did hurt, the pain took the breath from his lungs sometimes. “Just forgot to wear my brace today- ow, what the fuck?” He turned to scowl at Izzy when he had smacked his waist.

“Fucking idiot,” Izzy grumbled, though Ed could see the worry in his eyes. “How much did that brace cost? Too much for you to forget to wear it.”

“Is your knee okay?” Stede was fluttering at his side, frowning. “How bad is it? Do you need any help?”

Ed shook his head. “I’m all good, just a little tender. Will be worse off tomorrow.”

If anything that just made Stede’s frown worse. “Why don’t we go and take a shower so we can get in bed, hm?” He offered, lightly held Ed’s arm with his hands. “I was going to shower anyways, Izzy said he wouldn’t kiss me until I got all of this glitter off of me.”

“I won’t,” came Izzy’s voice whilst Ed laughed. “That shit pisses me off, and now it’s all over our carpet.”

“He’s just being a grump, it’s past his bedtime,” Ed grinned, pretended to ignore the swat he got to his hip as he pulled Stede in with his arm around his shoulders, briefly kissed him on the mouth. “We can shower then sleep,” he told Stede, before he looked back at Izzy. “Will you be joining us, darling?”

Izzy certainly had a point about the glitter, because Ed glanced down at his hands and could see that his skin was dotted with red and golden flecks. He looked back at Izzy with a smile, hands outstretched to cup his face.

“Ed- no-” Izzy leaned as far back in his chair as he could, held his hands up to try and shove Ed’s away. “Edward-”

Ed was far too entertained, and leaned far enough in to cup Izzy’s face despite his protests, laughed against his mouth as he kissed him, before he leaned back to see him.

His beard was glittery.

“Oh don’t you look fabulous, darling.” Stede beamed from beside them.

But Izzy was just glaring at Ed, didn’t look the slightest bit entertained.

“Well, now you have to join us,” Ed beamed, still laughing as he leaned away, tapped Izzy’s cheek once more. And though being leaned down had twinged his knee a little more, the pain was sharper in his joint, it was definitely worth it. “Coming, love?”

“Go fuck yourself.” Izzy grumbled, but despite himself he still leaned down to grab his prosthetic, started putting it back on so he could head to the shower with them.

Stede went upstairs to get the water running and between leaning on Izzy to get to the bathroom whilst his knee was playing up, and listening to the sound of Stede’s humming from the bathroom, he couldn’t have felt more at home.

💫 what is your favorite kind of comment/feedback?

Okay this one I’m taking time to answer because I’m gonna use some real examples (because I never delete shit from my AO3 inbox and I'm feeling a little self-indulgent this morning) so strap in:

1. Comments left in the bookmarks. It’s rare, I’ve only ever had it happen twice. But it’s a little window into someone else’s view and I love that shit.

In one someone quotes a line from the fic itself and follows it up with “I’m gonna use that, maybe, once I get bitches, gotta cut my hair for that.” The once I get bitches part had me genuinely laugh out loud for the first time in I don’t know how long. I really hope their endeavour panned out for them 🤣

2. Comments that quote parts of your own fic. I love seeing what parts of a piece of dialogue or scene really resonated with people.

This was fantastic! Oh especially the whole show bit, I enjoyed it too damn much! So well-written and funny, I was grinning like crazy! “But I work in a morgue, so the guys at work are not exactly the sort of stiff I want to be picking up. Naked Attraction please help me find a man who isn’t mortified to go home with a mortician!” - I remember this from the snippets and it's brilliant!

3. Comments from the same username on several chapters of a multi chapter. Those people are the bees knees and fill me with the warm fuzzies.

I can’t even begin to tell you how my heart soars whenever I see your name, @blondelunaa, @abihastastybeans and @practicecourts doing this. 10/10 kudos to you guys.

4. The “Sorry, I got too engrossed and forgot to comment” or “Re-reading!” Kind of comments. With fandom it sometimes feels like something is dead after a week without new kudos etc coming in. But comments like these prove that people are still reading and appreciating long after that.

Oooh ive gushed over this chapter before, but wow- this patronus scene is everything and more. I love the image of the stag, so powerful and magnificent - ima sucker for patronus reveals but this one takes the cake 🤩 and the end is perfect !!

5. The requests for more or a prequel/ sequel. Again rare (for me anyway). I got a few of these on a microfic but I’m gonna share the one:

I am obligated to inform you that I'm in dire need of a sequel. Or prequel. Or both, I won't complain...

6. The paragraph. I think these are the kind of comments everyone loves to get. Just a full paragraph of gushing about something you made.

Oh my goshhhh!!!! My heart!!!!!!! Thank you so very much for writing this <3 This is a perfect, heartfelt, beautiful glimpse into the "after" I requested. I'm so happy they resolved all their feelings! I love the sweet domesticity of the line "it's just me", like they're already an old married couple in Godrics, instead of two teenagers in the Heads Dorms. I feel like that line really helped set the tone of intimacy for the rest of the fic. I'm glad they talked about all their feelings and James doesn't have to be broody anyone xx Thank you for sharing Charms!

8. The full block caps shouting comment. The passion involved in that style of comment.

I SHOULD'VE BRACED MYSELF AFTER THAT AUTHOR'S NOTE

9. The one word/one liner comment. It's small but mighty.

This was fantastic!!!

This was fab. All the kudos to you 🌸 You are a very talented writer ⭐️

This was mad…I loved it

10. The comment from someone "fandom famous" who you thought wouldn't even know you exist. Exhilarating and also incredibly daunting when posting a WIP.

Ahhh the drama in this one!! Loved the James and Lily interactions. Sweet to see Alice and Lily's friendship in person for this one! Got some satisfaction from James hitting Pettigrew I won't lie lol. Glad to see Lily's not pregnant (yet)! Excited to see how you wrap this up!

11. The unexpected compliment comment. Someone paying your work a comment you weren’t expecting. I’ve highlighted a few here that I go back to when I feel like just throwing in the proverbial towel:

Hot damn, this is best court room scene I’ve ever read in fanfiction and most published novels. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time! I’ve been devouring this fic quickly because the dialogue is so freaking good- the perfect combination of fun banter but with a realistic flow- I feel like I’m reading conversations with my own friends. Also I don’t know if this makes sense but they everyone’s Britishness jumps off the page in a way that I love.

Woah! Broken can be a beautiful place to start. Mind blowing and emotionally a masterwork

Just read all of this in one sitting, love your writing! Look forward to reading more of your fics

Asfjksagf this fic is amazing!! It's nighttime here now and I thought to myself that I would just read a couple chapters and then finish it tomorrow - but I COULD NOT put it down!!! Had to devour it all together!! It was just so novel, so interesting, so fun! And the final scene with James holding and hugging Lily from behind had me positively melting the whole time ;A; incredible! <3

I’ve just found this story and I binged the whole thing \o/ Thank you so much for sharing it. The soulmate concept can be so tricky to navigate and I imagine it’s hard to come up with fresh takes on the Lily/James Patronus storyline, but all of this came together so seamlessly and the narrative is so engaging. Such a lovely experience, and I’m incredibly grateful to have stumbled upon it! Phenomenally done! \o/

BTS Baby-daddy discussion:

I love that you opened this discussion because I have thought about this far too much and am stoked to share my take:

First of all, your reasons and assessment were highly sound.

Secondly, for my baby-daddy I choose Yoongi.

So, non-idol AU he's still a producer. And probably a rapper. I'm so certain he would have still taken that path and made it (though probably with less notoriety). He would be a lower-key celebrity who had more time for things like family and could still show his face at the local park without causing a riot. I also feel that provided he surrounded himself with good people like he did in BTS, he would have eventually still become the very healthy version of himself that he is today. That being said, why do I choose him? Okay, yes, he's my bias and I will probably be single forever because I'm practically in love with him, but also I have two major reasons:

He would be an amazing father. He would be loving, and nurturing, and committed, and responsible. Everything I've ever heard him say about his probable parenting style has sent me straight into the deep end of delululand. And even if he wasn't your romantic partner, he would still be a wonderful person to co-parent with because he's just so fucking respectful and so desirous to understand others and exist well alongside them. I also feel like he's the smartest financially, and your child would never want for anything, no matter the state of global economics.

ALSO, I am convinced that he is most likely to fall for his baby-mama under the domestic circumstances of co-parenting. I feel like as opposed to some of the other guys, learning he was going to be a parent wouldn't be a frustration to him for more than a second. I feel like he would be really happy and excited regardless of the circumstances, especially after the baby was born. The man lives to serve others, and he's soft as hell. He would be so in love with that little baby. He also cares a lot about character, and if his baby-mama was a loving mother and he was in this co-parenting circumstance with her, I think he would fall fast and hard. He's a sentimental sap at his core. I'd give him one Chuseok with his little unplanned fam and it would be game over.

Now who would I least want as a baby-daddy? Jungkook.

Jungkook, non-idol AU is probably a pro-gamer or an athlete. I'm gonna go with professional athlete. In this universe, even if he's surrounded by people who ground him, he's a lot more cocky and self-absorbed. The man is gorgeous and good at everything. He'd have women eating out of his hand and no idol-culture rules cramping his style. I think he'd be kind of a mess.

Again, I have two major reasons besides him being less adjusted as a human:

At this point he seems like he's still growing up and learning to care for himself. I don't think he'd be prepared to care for a child. I think he would feel like his youth was cut short a bit, which, hey, I would understand. I feel like he would would think of his pre-baby days as the "glory days" and refer to them as such. I think he would love his child, but I think it would be a struggle for him to adjust to the parenting lifestyle. I think as a mothering co-parent in the situation it would sometimes (oftentimes) be like having two kids you had to keep track of.

Also: emotional whiplash. Jungkook is a flirty flirty flirt. He is also a romantic at heart. I think he'd be the kind of guy to lead you on, even if he didn't intend to. He'd always see you as a maybe and he'd blur those lines as often as he was allowed. He'd be the type to be carousing around the country and then come visit for Christmas and have you wrecking a good solid relationship you were in by ending up in bed with you because you're always gonna wish it would stick, that he would want you for keeps, that he would stay. Like, I get Christopher Hayden from Gilmore Girls vibes from this mine and that shit would fucking destroy me.

Anyway, this was way too much fun and please excuse the novel I just wrote 😅 😅 😅

I love your delulu hours! 💜

OH???? MY GOSH??????? i'm not even gon lie i may be a bit more neurotic bc i am one with mother nature rn but this made me shed a tear LSKCLSDK LIKE??????? OH????

DANNY IS SO BOYFRIEND HOLY SHIT HE LOOKS SO COSY AND DOMESTICATED LIKE THATS MY HIUSE WIFE RUGHT THERE HES COOKING SPAGHETTI FOR THE KIDS HE HAS ON YOUR FRILLY APRON. SOMEONE SEDATE ME RIGHT NOW I AM SCREAMING

no bc i'm experiencing physical pain like my chest hurts just thinking about him all sweet and smiley and cosy in his sweater in the kitchen like that. he's 100% got something simmering on the stove, just about to put something in the oven for dessert when you come home, a cat stevens record on, gentle afternoon sunlight filling your kitchen. he tells the kids to give you some room when you first come in the door, but he's smiling because he loves to watch the way they get excited for you to come home. he gives you a big hug when you come to him, and he only lets you go to give you a kiss and take your bag and steer you to the table so you can sit and have a cup of tea. “how was your day, my love?” he asks. he listens attentively and still manages to cook a perfect dinner and keep an eye on the kids at the same time. he keeps your house full of warmth and peace and joy, and he's always happy to see you, and he cares for you and your little ones with kindness every single day. he loves you. and you're perfectly happy, happier than you ever imagined you could be.

#stay at home partner danny is obviously something i care SO deeply about. help #soft tag #maddie talks to friends!

🎃…overall ship…🎃

@horanghaejamjam

goddamn katt, the self control i needed to not immediately write this ship, i'm so shy around you which is why i barely dm you but you're also the reason i like to procrastinate. i could write ships for you all day and fail university. you are my priority always <3

and just when I think i can’t fall for you harder than i already have 😩 the hair 😩 but like for real i was so excited to see you request again!!! i missed you so much 😭 the emojis are speaking for themselves but man I’m on cloud nine rn.

one extra special ship coming up!

i went so over word limit for this but i couldn't stop writing this, i have an addiction to this ship and i have to say this ship is the best one i've done so far, and it's extra special because it's for you. normally these ships are just over 600 words 630 max but holy shit this ended up having a word count of 1041. i literally struggle to write 1000 words of an essay but i can simp over you and this member and write a whole ass novel.

and such a sidenote but i just realised why i am so whipped for you and now it's so obvious, but it wasn't until you dyed your hair that i saw it. you remind me of a cartoon i used to watch as a kid, i used to watch all the time when i was 7-9 it was called ruby gloom and the theme song still slaps and you are literally irl ruby (even if your hair isn't red)! you're making me cry so much at that realisation

~ateez~ seonghwa🎃

This was the quickest decision I have ever made in the history of my indecisiveness. There is something that feels so beautifully domestic whenever I picture you and Seonghwa together, it’s so vivid that I can see the exact smile he would have for you, describing it wouldn’t give him justice so here you go.

You possess this incredible gentle nature and you are also the most honest and proud person I have ever had the pleasure of meeting. You transcend the need to hide so you wear your personality on your sleeve and it the most endearing thing in this world.

But I’m not the only person who thinks so, Seonghwa would be besides himself and it would really show in everything does. You bring forth this sense of docile innocence in him, even if you weren’t dating at the time Seonghwa would have the irresistible urge to open up to you and be his most vulnerable self.

Even though Seonghwa is very loving this would be a big deal to him, normally he feels that he has some control over the relationships that he has, both platonic and romantic, but in this case, he really wants to take the back seat and see what happens.

He adores your kindness and your willingness to even give him the time of day, even though he is the literal Park Seonghwa and he doesn’t owe you anything he still feels obliged to show you just how good a boyfriend he is.

I can’t say this enough you make him feel like a good memory, you bring him so much peace and he can’t imagine ever wanting to leave your side.

Before I return to the more drabbley section of my ship we need to address your absolutely stunning visuals! Each time I see you and your aesthetic I actually get so emotional.

You are so pretty in the most wholesome way and you are an absolute icon starting from your hair to your aesthetic outfits. You literally have forest pixie visuals and your eyes are just so hypnotic, it is only natural that I ship you with THE siren eyes visual Seonghwa.

Both of you are so dreamy and beautiful, but in a way that I haven’t seen before. You both exist outside of the standard beauty standard yet you also just outdo every beauty standard ever. I truly can’t express how fond I am of your visuals and combining that with Seonghwa you get a dream couple.

Now, the creativity that just about oozes from your fingertips will never not impress Seonghwa.

Following the soft domestic relationship dynamic Seonghwa truly loves how he can just stick close to your side and experience the most exciting sense of comfort.

Your internal black cat mom energy has rubbed off on Seonghwa and he really starts to assume the role of being the dad, aka, acting like a husband even if neither of you explicitly mention the idea of having a family.

But let’s be real he definitely wants to have a family with you whenever the opportunity arises. 

You’ve actually plagued him with so much wholesome energy that it makes the other members gag, it’s so sickening to see how gentle he is with you.  Seonghwa is actually shorter than you, so the most sickening act off affection you do is resting your head on top of his just to give him a soft little kiss.

Oh, and we thought Yunho was the one and only spiderboy but Seonghwa totally looks up at you with a blush coating his cheeks as he places a feather-light kiss on your lips.

I don’t know where else to put this but talking about kisses he totally has this fixation with your tattoos he will aimlessly trace them when he is sitting next to you and he will even kiss them. His favourite will definitely be the pawprints on your thigh.

He also has a habit of treating your dogs like his babies up until the moment that you have babies.

Another thing is that SEONGHWA IS PRACTICALLY MADE FOR BOOKSTORE OR BOBA DATES YOU CAN’T TELL ME OTHERWISE.

He also tends to giggle, like actually giggle whenever you call him “love”, “darling”, or “hun” even if you give that nickname to everyone you know.

Seonghwa loves you, that much is clear by how much of a damn baby he is around you, and he absolutely swoons whenever you present him with gifts or notes of encouragement but please be warned...

He will present you with even more elaborate gifts, and sometimes they are normal cute relationshippy things but other times they have this Seonghwa flare like him designing a custom you-seonghwa-and-your-dogs-in-a-cute-house lego set that you could build together all while he tells you that you’re way prettier in person.

All in all, there is something special about you, the way you look at him is enough to summon all the butterflies. Even if he holds back on the pda he will always say just how much he loves you, he will smother you with those three words. But it’s all in good faith. So many things have happened in his life but meeting you and having the privilege of falling in love with you is the greatest thing to have ever experienced in his life.

 Now, picture this, a bed full of plushies and in-between all of that is you and Seonghwa using your five blankets as a means of hiding away from the world. All the sounds around you are muffled and yes, it’s fall, the leaves have finally morphed into a flurry of browns and oranges.

Seonghwa’s slow breathing is irregular since he is humming some small song that has come straight from his heart. The lattes for two he made sit off to the side, widely neglected as you stare into each other’s eyes, he feels like he is living a dream, he wants you to pinch him so he could wake up and go about his days. But when you playfully poke his cheek, he finally realises that the sweetest thing in his life isn’t a dream, it isn’t a wish…

It’s true love.

Falling for the Freak - Eddie Munson Fix-It Fic - Chapter 25

Hi there! Sorry about no update last night. My brain was scrambled from a long ass work day and a weird text from my ex. No major drama between us but let’s just say this coming semester might be an interesting one. I’m literally itching to get back to my apartment, I swear, I’m losing it. I can feel it calling to me to just be there. I am going back this Sunday and I am so fucking excited about it. Ugh let’s just make it Sunday already. 

And again, just a fair warning that this thing here will be coming to an end. I think the next chapter is going to wrap everything up. Since we had a smutty chapter last time, I want to have a fluffier chapter here and then finish it off with the next chapter. It’s gonna be a happy ending and I think you all will be really pleased with it! I’m certainly excited to write it. 

CHAPTER SUMMARY: The end of the school year is quickly approaching and Eddie is beyond thrilled that he’s finally going to be leaving Hawkins High School. The reader is finished with classes now - as most American colleges finish early May - and is working more and spending as much time as she can with Eddie.

WARNINGS: Literally just all the fluff. And probably some language.

Chapter 25

I was finally done with school. I felt kind of bad because my college courses got out much earlier than the high school. Eddie was in good shape to graduate though, even despite everything we had gone through. Even though he was pretty much entirely healed at this point, after what happened at the prom he decided it would be best to finish the year at home. 

Now that I was done with school, I asked to work strictly morning shifts at Family Video so that I could spend my afternoons with Eddie. Sometimes, I would pick up Dustin from school, grab Eddie’s assignments, and we would drive over to the trailer together. I often picked up pizza or something easy to make for dinner. While Eddie and Dustin would work on their school work, I would cook dinner. It was all very domestic, but if I was being completely honest, I didn’t mind it at all.

One night we were all sitting around eating chocolate chip pancakes for dinner when Dustin looked up at Eddie, “Hey, when is graduation?”

“Uh, July something,” Eddie said, his mouth full of pancakes. “I don’t know the exact date,”

“That’s so exciting,” I said. “I can’t wait to see you walk across that stage with your diploma,”

“I don’t know if I’m going to walk though,” Eddie said.

“What?” Dustin and I asked simultaneously.

“You saw what happened at the prom,” Eddie said, jabbing the air with his fork. “And that was just a dumb high school dance. Can you imagine what they’ll do to me if I try to graduate and move on with my life?”

“Eddie,” I said, “you have to walk at graduation,”

“Yeah,” Dustin chimed in. “What about that epic speech you made before spring break? How 86 was going to be your year? How you were going to flip Principal Higgins off and run like hell out of here?”

“This seems like quite a speech I missed,” I chuckled.

“That was before everything,” Eddie said. “Before I became even more of a freak than I already was,”

“Eddie,” I said, “you are walking at graduation. Not just because I want to see how cute you look in your cap and gown, but because you deserve it. You have worked so hard for this. And you’re an innocent man. Not just that, you saved the lives of these people. I get that they don’t know that, but if they did they would realize you’re a hero and that they should be celebrating you,”

“Yeah,” Dustin said. “Don’t let the ignorant mouth breathers in this town ruin your accomplishment,”

Eddie thought about it for a minute. Then he stood up from the couch. “You’re right,” Eddie said. “I’m not going to let them take this away from me. I saved their asses. And I have studied way too much for this shit not to walk. And Dustin you do have a point, I have to flip Higgins the bird, I can’t miss that opportunity,”

“So you’ll walk?” I asked.

“I’ll walk,” Eddie said with a smile.

--- 

“Babe come on! We’re gonna be late!” Eddie called from the other side of my bedroom door.

“Just a second!” I said. “I’m almost ready!”

He had promised me a night out. Eddie had neglected to tell me what that exactly meant. He just said we had to be ready by seven thirty at the latest. It was seven twenty. I couldn’t decide what to wear because he hadn’t told me what we would be doing. I settled on a long red skirt and a black cropped tank top with some strappy sandals. Hopefully we wouldn’t be hiking anywhere.

“Babe!” Eddie called again. “I’m not trying to rush you but we really gotta go soon,”

I opened the door after tying the last loop on my sandals. “Stop fussing, I’m ready,”

Eddie was dressed casually as well, so that gave me comfort. I didn’t understand how he made black jeans and a Metallica shirt look so sexy but it always took my breath away.

“Where are we going?” I asked.

“That’s for me to know and you to find out,” Eddie said. “Now come on, let’s go,”

We got in his van and he drove us to the fair grounds. When we parked, Eddie got out and opened up the back of his van. He pulled out an old cooler and two folded blankets. 

“Need any help?” I asked.

“Nah, I’m good,” Eddie said. “Let’s go,”

We walked together in the warm June air. Eddie stopped once we had reached the top of the nearest hill and then he set the cooler down. He unfolded one of the blankets and set the cooler on it. He left the other blanket folded and then sat down. 

“You gonna join me?” he asked.

“Of course,” I said. “What is all this?”

“A picnic,” Eddie said. 

Eddie opened the cooler and I saw it was stuffed with food. There were sandwiches and chips and candy and even a bottle of cheap wine. Eddie unpacked everything but the wine; he handed me a sandwich and tore open the bag of chips.

“What is this all for?” I asked. “You really did all of this for me?”

“You’ve been taking care of me for months now,” Eddie shrugged. “I figured it was time I take care of you for once. Think of this as a thank you,”

“Eddie,” I sighed, looking down at the turkey sandwich he had made me. “This is perfect,”

“I’m glad you think so,” Eddie said. “I would’ settle for anything less for my girl,” He leaned over and kissed me quick. 

“I don’t understand why you were in such a rush though,” I said.

“Well, you want to see the sun set don’t you?” he asked, nodding towards the sun that was just starting to melt into the sky. “This is really the best place to see it.” Eddie paused. “And it’s where we first met,”

I smiled. I felt like a giddy school girl thinking about the night we met. “That feels like so long ago,” I said, taking a bite of my sandwich.

“Yeah,” Eddie said. “We’ve been through a lot. I kinda feel like I’ve known you all my life. And yet it hasn’t even been a year,”

“I feel the same way,” I said. “I hardly remember what it was like not having you in my life. It’s like you’ve always been here somehow,”

“Well get used to it,” Eddie chuckled. “Because I’m not going anywhere. You’re stuck with me,”

“Good,” I said. “As long as you’re good with being stuck with me,”

“Of course,” Eddie smiled. “I wouldn’t want it any other way,”

I paused as a thought occurred to me. “Eddie, what are you going to do in the fall?” I asked. “Are you going to go to college?”

“I don’t know,” Eddie sighed. “I think I need a break from school for a while. Especially after all that happened this year,”

“I understand that,” I said. “But do you think you’ll stay in Hawkins?”

“I don’t know,” Eddie said. “I don’t know that I can,”

“Yeah,” I said. “It’s probably better to find a new place where people don’t think you murdered the local cheerleader,”

“Yeah, unfortunately,” Eddie said. We both got quiet for a minute. Then Eddie looked up at me. “You should come with me,”

“What?” I asked, nearly choking on my sandwich. 

“Come with me,” Eddie repeated. “I mean, I know you have your classes here, but you could transfer somewhere, right? You could come with me and we could start over,”

“Where do you want to go?” I asked.

“Anywhere,” Eddie said. “I don’t care. As long as I’m with you. I mean, if you don’t want to come, you don’t have to,”

I thought about it. “I want to come,” I said. “You said it yourself, I could transfer my credits to another school. We could get jobs so we could have cash. We could find a cheap apartment somewhere,”

“Just us,” Eddie said.

“And a dog?” I asked.

“Or a cat,” Eddie said.

“Or both!” I giggled. 

“I like both,” Eddie said. “Both would be good,”

“I like both too,” I smiled. 

“Do you think I’m crazy?” Eddie asked with a smirk on his face.

“Yes,” I said. “But I think I might be crazy too,”

“That works for me,” Eddie said, pulling out the bottle of wine. “I think this calls for a celebration,”

“Absolutely,” I said.

Eddie uncorked the bottle and we took turns taking sips. (He forgot to pack cups). It felt like we were out there forever. The sun finally set in an haze of orange, red, and pink. When the sun was gone the night got cool. We huddled underneath the second blanket Eddie had brought and held each other tight. I pressed my face against his chest and breathed in the smell of him.

“I can’t wait to run away together,” I said.

“Me neither,” Eddie said and pressed a gentle kiss to my forehead.

Hello lovelies,

A review you've all been waiting for!!!!

My naked truth?

I can't decide if I loved this book or hated it, which is why I only rated it 8 out of 10.

There were times that I was sitting on the edge of my seat in pure excitement.. and then there were times that I wanted to throw up in so much disgust.

I almost cried but I didn't.

This book...god, this book was emotionally grueling.

Lily and Ryle, toxic from the get-go. Ryle literally asked her for a one-night stand THE NIGHT THEY MET??? AND THEN after everything Lily told him about her father and mother's relationship, he still had the AUDACITY to put his MF hands on her????

I mean now the roof scene.. magnificent but seriously, Ryle? You were suppose to be MR. PERFECT.

I loved the Ellen letters about Atlas.. loved but do we not think it's a little creepy for a 15 year old to be sneaking a 18 year old into her house... Now wait, before you judge me for saying that, I know it's only 3 years and she was about to turn 16 but the way he kept asking her when she was turning 16.. that made me feel funny..

but then her father literally almost killing him.. my heart shattered.

Do you see now why I said love/hate relationship with this book?

At the end, I loved that they finally came together and that Atlas kept his promise about coming back to her.

"You can stop swimming now, Lily. We finally reached the shore."

I was punching AIR. I kind of wish Atlas would've beat the shit out of Ryle though.

He does not deserve Lily. He does not deserve Emerson. He doesn't even deserve his own family.

Now, please, Allysa.. My die hard of a bestie.. She's amazing, talented, brilliant, incredible, amazing, show stopping, spectacular. Her and Marshall are complete opposites and I love it.

I literally cannot wait for "It Starts with Us" to come out because I am dying to hear Atlas' side.

I hope it'll be a jaw dropping as this one was.

Happy reading babes! <3
