Fantasy food #1 Moondrop Tart
I rarely draw food items due to their complexity but after a rough day I sketched out some food items. This is the first digitally rendered one, the Moondrop Tart!
A primarily winter dessert made from moondrop berry jelly and vanilla cream set in a buttery pastry case, the moon on the top is created with powdered sugar while the decor includes jelly stars and chill berries.

They notice almost immediately, you didn't even have a chance to let go yet, in the middle of loosening your fingers that were tangled against theirs when they tightened their grip by reflex. Enough to keep your hand but not to cause you any pain or discomfort, you let out a giggle indicating to them that you were messing around. Yeah you will not regret that later..
Characters: John Price, Simon "Ghost" Riley, Alejandro Vargas, Valeria Garza, König, Keegan P. Russ, Philip Graves.
They had to do a double take, they ended up walking a few steps away before noticing and they place their hand out and started signaling you to put your hand back in theirs, you didn't and just laughed so they walked back to ask you what was wrong. When you told them nothing and it was just to see their reaction, they looked almost offended. Never joke about something like that again, they almost thought you were going to break up with them from then and there. More likely they were very touchy and a little clingy for the rest of the day. Pretty much looked like a kicked puppy when you tried doing it again.
Characters: John "Soap" MacTavish, Kyle "Gaz" Garrick, Rodolfo "Rudy" Parra, Alex Keller, Kim "Horangi" Hong-jin, Gary "Roach" Sanderson, Philip Graves.
Oh they looked so offended, how dare you let go of their hand?! Yeah you brought that on yourself, it's more likely this will turn into a whole prank war between the both of you. Of course they still went back to hold your hand again but this time you CANNOT pry it off, you started it so you don't really have room to complain.
Characters: John "Soap" MacTavish, Kyle "Gaz" Garrick, Kim "Horangi" Hong-jin, Nikolai Belinski, Philip Graves.
Cool, calm, and collected, they first thought nothing of it but then you started doing it multiple times. They asked if you okay but you smiled and nodded, made them more confused. Then they caught sight of your attempt to not laugh, they thought of it as good fun, they might get you back later on so watch out for that.

Small note: I wanna tag this Creator so bad on my fave CoD creator list because I feel like they're so underappreciated and their works are so good, I saw their acc through @puff0o0's blog and I think they have their mentions off for people who aren't mutuals ahaha.

{part one} {part 1.5}
Tumblr media
-
It had been a long time since that night at the pond. You had long since left the grove and past the shadows, almost to baldurs gate, actually, in the small town of rivington. It was a long and difficult journey, yes, but with ample time and opportunities to talk about what had happened. But it never came up. Instead, there were many longing stares shot your way on gales part, small flirty conversations, and even more excuses to skip away from your companions to get any alone time with Gale, practically praying to the gods he’d say something first. But Gale wasn’t the type to come out of his comfort to express his feelings, let alone such complex ones. He had been rendered speechless.
Today was different. Maybe it was the long journey nearing it's end, but everyone was ready to let loose, even if it was just for a short while. Karlach and Wyll had split up to look for some armor, jaheria stayed back at camp to care for the small child who lost their mother, so it was a smaller company than you were used to. Just halsin, Shadowheart, Astarion, and of course, You and Gale. It was really a perfect day to mill about town, the sun beaming down in warm rays of light, not too hot and not too cold out, not even a hint of rain, so the dirt paths often muddy were dry, no ruining the clothes you had just washed.
Everyone was at their happiest, though of course, the underlying anxiety and pain for events soon to come were lingering, just pushed aside for the time being.
"Is the sun usually this blinding?" Astarion hissed, shielding his eyes with his hand "I don't remember everything being this bright"
"It simply feels brighter coming out of the shadows, you will get used to it" Halsin smiled down at Astarion, slipping behind him slightly to cast a shadow around him, guarding him from the sun. "We Haven't been inside in a while, why don't we find a shop to rest in for awhile, we have some money to spare"
"I could use a new hair ribbon, My old one looks a bit strange now that my hair has changed.." Shadowheart commented, lightly playing with her hair.
You went from shop to shop, it didn't matter, stopping by everything on the way, getting food, drinks, jewlery, and other small goods, the last place you had any energy for was a small looking shop with people outside raving about their service and pleasure being a customer there., without really looking at the sign or name.
Inside was dimly lit, a dark oak, cream, and red color scheme. Easily the most expensive place in all of the town.
"this is...awfully fancy, isn't it?" Gale murmurs, eyes flickering across the room.
"Certainly. I wonder what we could get to drink, I need a good wine..." Astarion immediately glided across the hall and to one of the counters, a huge smile graced his pale face. He stood there, talking for quite a bit, meanswhile, shadowheart wandered around, peaking her head into a room, she slipped a bit more into the room, then suddenly jolted out.
"Shadowheart? you look like you've seen...a lot"
"It's a brothel!" Astarion and Shadowheart said in unison, shadowheart nearly a whisper, Astarion nearly a yell. The woman behind the desk gave them both a nasty stare for the disruption of the ambiance.
"oh of course, sorry, beautiful" Astarion cooed at the woman. the immediate reaction to his flattery and dashing smile visible as she tucked her auburn hair away from her blushed face. He sauntered over to your merry group, that smile still plastered over his face. "I got us a discounted rate on a pair very talented drow."
"Excuse me, what now?"
"I got a discounted rate for an absolutely lovely time with drow twins for the same rate as one person but five. And we will have two rooms for comfort of space. I'm just that good, you all should be thanking me."
"Thank you, Astarion-" Halsin crossed his arms, a small smirk on his lips.
"I-thank you?" Shadowheart sputtered, still looking a bit frazzled by her earlier revelation.
you were still trying to process all of what just happened when even Gale spoke up.
"Well, looks like you'll have just...four people joining you, I'd prefer the company of a good book and an ale right now, i think."Gales eyes met yours for a split second, as you looked up at him. A very distinct look. He wanted you. It was hunger, lust, but restraint. He wasn't going to stop you from having fun with your company, but god did he want you to stay with him.
"I...um.." you looked up at Gale, fully taking him in this time. Gods...He was really the only thing you wanted. You wanted his soft hair between your fingers, your thighs wrapped around his waist. You wanted to feel his tongue shoved inside of you again.
"I think I'd like an ale or two as well."
"Oooookay...Well, since i already paid for two rooms, why don't you both buy a round for the spare room while we get busy." Astarion's eye roll was quite visible and very pointed, but that didn't matter, no one would actually remember anything that was said, as they'd be wrapped in bodies and sweat, including you.
So you ordered two bottles of ale and two of a beautiful red wine, they sat in the middle of a small round table. The room itself was stunning, the walls painted a deep purple, with a golden trim at the tops and bottoms. There was a bed centered in the middle of the room, with an abundance of fluffy pillows on top and a velvet sheet to top it off. It was by far the fanciest room you'd stayed in. Everything dripped of gold and pearls, there was even a damn chandelier. If this was a side room, you wondered what the main room must've looked like.
"This is...." You trailed off, still taking in the whole room.
"extraordinary?" Gale muttered, taking no time to sit down and pour out two glasses of wine. Something was obviously on his mind, as he swirled the red liquid around, his eyes were slightly distant, and his brows furrowed. It didn't surprise, you, though, there was a lot going on, and he had the chance to end his own life to possibly save the world, and yet here he sat, already on his second glass. There must be a lot on his mind, you thought.
Really, he just wanted the courage to make a big move, and a bit of liquid honesty couldn't hurt. While you drank, he tried not to stare, but it seemed to be getting harder and harder. He wanted so badly to reach out and devour you. He wanted to taste you again, grip your thighs with his hands, leave hickeys across your whole body, he wanted everyone to know how much he could pleasure you. He couldn't help but look at his drink, look at you, and the bed. he kept repeating 'just tell her' Tell you what? He wasn't sure what to even tell you?
Was he madly in love with you? Likely. Did he Lust for you? Always. Of course he did. Out of all the worldly and otherworldly beings, things, concepts, you were the most perfect. He Would year the night sky apart to see your smile. Commit crimes to stare into those eyes endlessly.
"They're certainly making some noise," The drinks were certainly kicking in, your voice was a bit shakey, but your head still fairly clear, clear enough to hear the moaning and grunts from the other room, even some....weird god kinks, you weren't sure and didn't care to be that snoopy.
Gale chuckled, nodding his head. "I would bet 5000 gold I could get you moaning louder than all of them, combined."
"Is that the wine talking?" You tried to blink away the disbelief and shock you clearly wore on your face, Gale was an upfront man, but this was on another level...
"Only to help say what's been on my mind." His deep brown eyes looked at you with incredible lust, more than you'd ever seen before, It was hot, searing, intense. "You have always been on my mind."
You got up from your chair, legs weak not from the wine, but from how this charming wizard looked at you like you were the entire world, right in front of him. "Is that so?" You wanted nothing more than for Gale to wrap his arms around your waist and take all of you til night passed and morning arose.
Your legs slotted through his perfectly, your knee nearly grazing his crotch. In one big gulp, you downed the rest of your drink, and leaned over Gale to set the glass down on the table, not very subtly getting closer to him, and even though your chest was practically in his face, he was still looking into your eyes.
"it would be such a waste if we didn't use such a beautiful bed. We're not often afforded those luxuries.." You took one more small step closer to him, reaching out to the hand free from drink, guiding it to your waist. "And we don't want to be wasteful..."
"Certainly not." Gale took one last sip of wine, licking the small drip that fell from his lips. He stood from his chair, his obvious hard on graising your hip. A small gasp left your lips, gods, you had forgotten how badly you'd wanted him, how big he felt...It was all returning to you. Your face flushed with heat as you remembered his tongue deep in your pussy, your lips wrapped around his cock.
Gale was emboldened by the wine, tipsy off of lust, his mind racing with all that he wanted to do to you, sweep you off your feet and into the weave. but that would have to wait, the here and now, right in front of him, you practically offering yourself to him yet again, he'd be a fool not to take it. "Come here, beautiful."
You let out a sigh, biting down on your lip as you sat down on his thigh. He wrapped his hands around your hips, squeezing slightly, almost reassuringly. He guided your hips back and fourth, while pressing you down further onto his thigh. your dress rode up to your waist, only your thin underwear creating all the friction you ever needed between your pussy and his thigh, getting ungodly close his his bulge yet never quite close enough.
His pace was slow and hard, Still clutching onto you like you absolutely needed it, which, was true, as the longer he rocked you the more wobbily your legs felt. You breath started to get heavier and heavier. Your head fell to his shoulders, the pleasure wracking through your whole body.
"No no, beautiful, look at me when you cum" Gale's hand inched its way to the back of your neck, pulling your head off his shoulder and holding you steady as you looked into his eyes,
It was all so much, his needy eyes begging for you to cum, your throbbing pussy, the small wet stain now on his pants from how gods damn much he turned you on, it was hard to keep his stare but you did, as you moaned his name, gasping as pleasure kept pulsing through your body. "fuck..." you chocked out. He let go of your neck but kept his hand on your shoulder, still keeping a firm grasp on your hip as it was clear you weren't exactly stable.
"I...That was..." You nearly whispered, still shuddering from the orgasm. You were so flustered, something that wasn't too easy for you, yet, he made you. His intensity with a smile had you dizzy. "Do you want me to return the favor?"
He raised a hand back to your jaw, tilting your head to look at him fully, to stare into his eyes.
"Let me make love to you-" Gale cooed, soothing you with his charm. "Sit back and let me give you everything."
"Yes, please-" you practically begged. Gale used his fingers to tilt your head slightly, leaving room for him to trail kisses and love bites down your neck, sucking on your skin, leaving you with shivers down your spine. You leaned into his touch, your hands nearly shooting up to grasp his soft hair, pulling him even closer.
"you're so beautiful-" He muttered between hickeys, breath getting heavier as you pressed your hips against him, feeling how much he wanted you, straining
You pulled away slightly, grasping his hand and struggling a bit to get up, turning to lead him to the bed. Although your eyes were set in front of you, you felt his gaze scan your body, how your hips swayed as you walked, he wanted to take all the time in the world to explore your body, learn it more than anything he'd ever read.
"just lay down, beautiful." He pressed his hand to your chest, pushing slightly, letting you fully relax into the bed, his body hovering over yours, his steady and strong arm next to your head, the other making quick work of unbuttoning your dress.
"Take those off for me," he looked down at your panties, slipping a finger at the band of your underwear and pulling it back, snapping it against your skin. It took a moment to register, there was so much distracting you, but you somehow managed. Completely bare and laid out, displayed like a work of art for him to admire. Gale took a moment, sitting up on his knees, to take you all in. His fingers traced along your stomach, lowering slowly, with such a light touch you could barely tell if it was him or a chill.
It shouldn't have been surprising but when he slipped his middle finger inside, you gasped, letting a moan escape your lips as his finger curled in and out of you, working in a slow and consistent pace. His index finger grazed your clit every time he pumped in and out, lightly, still taking you down from the high of riding his thigh, him knowing you'd still be sensitive, to not overstimulate.
"Come here" You pulled him in by his hair, now slightly tosseled and looking frankly unfair. "kiss me."
He didn't need to be told twice, quickly pressing his own lips to yours. He tasted of the sweet red wine, with hints of caramel and clove. He was delicious , addicting. You licked his bottom lip, opening his mouth to allow you deeper into his mouth. While you explored his mouth, he slipped another finger deep inside you, pushing in further than he had been doing before, quickening his pace.
His lips left your own, slightly panting, a bit out of breath. He then trailed down your neck to your breast, looking back up at you, asking permission to suck on your skin. You nodded desperately, gods you needed anything he would give you. His lips attacked to your nipple, sucking and licking, bobbing his head with every pull, it was all building up.
"I'm gonna cum, gods, Gale please I'm close-" You begged, yet he pulled back quickly, you let out a disappointed groan, why would he stop now? It didn't take long to get your answer, he wanted your cum on his mouth. He moved fast to move his mouth to your pussy, not relenting in his speed with his fingers and now, tongue. It didn't take long for the wave of bliss to wash over you, uncontrollable sounds coming out while he rode our your orgasm with one less finger and slowing down with his lips. It wasn't until your hips stopped shaking that he drew out his fingers, moving them to his mouth where he sucked them dry, letting out a small moan when they were clean. "divine.."
His clothes were stripped off, yours now completely tossed aside, the cool air hitting you both, but neither of you really noticed. You were focused on his hard cock pressed against your pussy, grinding againt your lips, getting slick with his spit and your cum. It would be so easy just to slide it in, but he drew it out, teasing you til you begged, pleaded, please, you needed it, you wanted him so desperately. Yet still somehow a fraction of his need for you the past weeks.
Gales restraint was shocking, even to himself, but the sight of you underneath him, begging for his cock, glowing from the orgasm he brought you, was enough for a lifetime, though he hoped there'd be many more lifetimes of this.
One more whimper is all that it took for him to shove himself deep inside you, all the way to the hilt. You felt him pressing against your cervix, a small but sharp pain from the sudden sensation , a good pain, that meant you were taking it all, and so well for him too. He had waited too long for this to stop, he kept pumping inside you, at an unrelenting pace, fast and hard. He switched between sucking on your neck, your breast, and biting your lip, keeping eye contact whenever he could. He wanted to see how much you wanted him, and he wanted you to know how much lust he had in his soul, just for you.
Gale held your neck with his hand, grasping lightly, as he came for the first time, shoving his cock even deeper into your pussy as he slowed his pace down, nearly whimpering in your ear as his head fell to your shoulders, biting down on your skin to keep from some more sounds he found embarrassing, but was so very sexy. You expected him to lay down and rest, after that, but he kept going.
"Flip over for me." He asked, giving your earlobe a small nibble as he spoke. You couldn't move fast enough, laying down on your stomach as he held down your waist, fingernails digging into your skin, leaving small crescent dents. You shoved your ass down on him with every thrust, wave after wave of orgasms wracking through your body, it felt endless, overwhelming. When it all felt like enough he kept going, adding more, rubbing your clit as your ass bounced on his cock, his thumb slipping in and out of your ass, him completely exiting you and only coming back in when you came from his words alone, sweet talking you into more orgasms. Or stopping completely to finish you off with his mouth again, you'd squirted in his mouth more than once, and he came once just from that. Maybe the stopping and starting was also so he himself could keep going as much as he could muster, but that never crossed your mind.
"You take it so well-" and "I want to see you need me" and "You're just too beautiful when you cum, I can't help but follow."
You went until your bodies gave out. Too sweaty, too raw to take anymore.
Gale fell beside you, out of breath, tan skin glistened with sweat and cum, his cock still leaking a bit, though even he was shocked there was anything left in him. You laid there for minutes, maybe longer, it didn't matter. It didn't click that the room next to you had fallen silent until you'd finally caught your breath. Actually...you remember the screams and moans ending a while ago. you notice Gales eyes had also turned to the shared wall, probably coming to the same conclusion as you.
"Do you think they heard us?" You asked, a small smile forming.
"Most definitely."

Cross-Posted on AO3.
Tumblr media
Everyone had told Yuji Itadori that it was a bad idea. A very bad idea. After all, just dating as a Jujutsu Sorcerer at all came with its fair share of risks. Dating as a Jujutsu Sorcerer while sharing a body with the King of Curses? It should’ve rendered him completely celibate. But to go beyond that, to not only date, but to date a normal, powerless girl with absolutely no knowledge of the existence of Jujutsu society and curses?
Now that was downright stupid.
Those were Gojo’s words too! Satoru Gojo’s — the stupid idea savant! That had certainly gotten Yuji to second guess things. When he left to meet her for their first official date, he’d gone there with all the intentions of breaking things off. But then…
Well, there wasn’t any big revelation. She’d just been her. And he just couldn’t let her go. There were very few moments in his life these days that were able to be just sweet and simple. So any he could have, he knew that he had to cling to, and cling to tight. And moments spent with her? They made him feel like life would never be complicated again.
So six months later, here they were at the matsuri of a temple near her school. And boy, watching her knelt over the shateki stall, silly little tongue sticking out of her mouth as she concentrated so deeply on the balloon she was aiming at, could he not regret it any less. Especially not when she looked so damn cute in that yukata.
POP!
 “I got it!” she jumped back from the carnival game with a squeal, accidentally knocking Yuji in the chest with the pellet gun.
“Oomf—!”
She gasped, “Oh my gosh I’m so sorry!” and rushed forward to check his chest, almost hitting him in the face this time, “Are you hurt?!”
He was able to anticipate it this time though, catching the muzzle of the rifle in his palm with a laugh, “I’m fine, I’m fine. Let’s just put this down, alright?”
She relinquished it immediately, bringing her hands to her face to try and cover her blush as she nodded frantically. The moment had finally caught up to her, the fact that she’d almost taken him out twice with the toy rifle and got completely in his face, touching his chest. And the cutest embarrassment came along with it. 
That was one of the things he really liked about her. She was shy and soft-spoken, but that didn’t stop her from ever living or hiding her true feelings when push came to shove. Especially when they involved other people. She often got ahead of herself, feet moving before her brain, throwing manners out the window if it meant helping somebody in need, blurting out the silliest little nonsensicals to try to ease an awkward silence. But never failing to revert back to that shyness and feel embarrassed about it in a way that always brought a smile to his face.
“Your prize, Miss.”
They both turned back to the game-tender, and Yuji instantly froze when he saw the prize being handed to her.
A little yarn doll, just big enough to be a keychain, and it— holy shit, it looked like—
“Aww, look at him Yuji!” she beamed, holding the doll up next to his face, “It looks just like you!”
He could feel his heart freeze with dread, his stomach twisting.
“W-What are you talking about?! No it doesn’t! It’s got tattoos!”
“Yeah. And four arms,” she rolled her eyes, “But look! It’s got your hair and eyes and that mischievous little smirk,” she wiggled it closer to his cheek, “That’s all troublemaker. All Yuji Itadori.” 
He swatted the little doll away from his face, growing more and more prickly the longer she held it so close to him, “Is not!”
She giggled, taking his whining as embarrassment over being teased rather than anything serious,and pulled the doll back to clutch into her own palms lovingly.
“And it’s cute…” she blushed a little as she whispered, “...just like you.”
Yuji softened at the sight. 
He needed to take it easy. It’s not like she could know the history there, the thing it actually looked like — he’d made absolute sure that she hadn’t, after all.
But still, the question remained:
“What’s it supposed to be anyway?” he asked, “A mascot or something?”
He had to know, it was just uncanny how much it looked like Sukuna. And this temple didn’t have any ties to the Jujutsu world that he knew of. Not that he knew a lot. But he hadn’t seen any sorcerers or cursed energy residuals in the area. If anything, it was weird how few curses — even flyheads — were in this area, considering how old the temple was.
“I guess it’s the guardian spirit of this temple,” she answered.
Yuji’s eyes widened. No. No, there was no freaking way.
“This thing?” he pressed in disbelief, “But he— I mean it looks more like a demon than a guardian spirit.”
“That’s kind of the interesting thing!” she explained excitedly, “My homeroom teacher was telling us about it last week. I think the story goes, that in a war between spirits and humans, the peasants this temple served were constantly caught in the crossfire. That is, until a dedicated, benevolent demon came along and vowed to protect the temple even while the rest of the world burnt around it.”
She presented the doll to him, “This little guy is that demon.”
It was all Yuji could do to not roll his eyes at her. Okay. Now he knew it was just a coincidence. Because sure. Benevolent. That’s what Sukuna was. 
What a bunch of crap.
Oi. Sukuna suddenly gruffed in his head. I’m plenty fucking benevolent. 
Yuji went rigid. Sukuna didn’t talk to him often. And honestly, he preferred it that way. He could nap and plot and flit away the time however he did in his own soul, while Yuji enjoyed the life surrounding his. Rarely did he actually tune in and observe Yuji’s life unless there was a battle or an… opportunity at hand.
So the fact that he seemed to be paying attention now was more than a bit worrying. 
What, you gonna tell me that the story is true or something? Yuji snapped right back at his squatter bodymate. That you actually protected a temple?
Could be.
Yuji’s breath hitched.
O-Oh yeah? he demanded, trying to not reveal his wavering confidence. And what was the catch? There’s no way you were some guardian out of the goodness of your heart.
He could practically hear Sukuna smirk inside his head and it unnerved him. Sukuna was privy to all kinds of information about curses and Jujutsu that Yuji learned at school, a lot of which even involved the King of Curses himself. Yet he hardly had anything to comment on then. So why was he so damn talkative about this story?
I protected the shrine… Never said shit about the people in it. And then that horrible, raucous laughter of Sukuna’s echoed in his head.
“Shut up!”
“Huh?”
Yuji snapped back to his girlfriend, who stared back at him with wide, confused eyes. Shit. He said that outloud, didn’t he?
“Sh-Shut up— no way they’ve got fluffy ice!” he tried to save, pointing past her to a nearby stall, “We gotta get some!”
She looked behind her, following his finger, and then laughed, relieved that it was something as simple as that rather than something she might have said, “I swear, all you ever think about is food, Yuji.”
“That’s not true… I think about you a lot.”
…is what Yuji would’ve said if he were smoother, more confident, and convinced that a line like that wouldn’t send her running for the hills. But of course, he wasn’t any of those things. So he just rubbed the back of his head with a sheepish laugh and nodded when she suggested they go get in line for some.
He wanted to just enjoy the night, to forget about curses and Jujutsu and most of all Sukuna — he practically dared the curse to make another fucking remark, to get all of his unwelcome commentary out now while he could. But the inside of his head had gone, thankfully, radio silent. So he made peace with the fact that Sukuna had gotten bored with all of this and had gone back into his own soul to sleep.
But no. Sukuna was not gone, nor bored. Far from it.
He was hungry.
Tumblr media
Sukuna watched Yuji’s little girlfriend through his host’s eyes.
He’d excused himself to go use the restroom soon after they’d gotten their fluffy ice to split, and now he’d just stopped to watch her, sitting on a bench near the edge of the temple, the mouth of the forest, and enjoying her frozen treat with childish glee. The lovestruck fool was living in the moment, watching her with a heart full of warmth and just wanting to take it all in.
For Sukuna however, his stare was full of a hunger growing more and more ravenous with every second.
Of course she looked delicious at all times.  In her school uniform (girl’s uniforms were one of the few innovations of this era he could fully get behind), in her gym clothes the times she and Yuji went jogging together. Even that little floral sundress number she’d worn on their last date had really gotten his motor going. She was just a gorgeous little thing, and exactly his type.
Sickeningly sweet and salaciously stupid.
 But there was something about her right now, dolled up in a snow white yukata, walking under the warm glow of the traditional lanterns, down the path of a temple he once called home — she looked like she could have existed just like this, a thousand years ago. That she could’ve encountered him when he was at the height of his power, looking just like this.
It took everything in him not to utter “Extension” and tear her to pieces in front of every pair of prying eyes right here on this stone path. 
But no. He had to control himself.
He had to plan his moves carefully, he couldn’t just cause havoc willy-nilly, not without raising an unignorable alarm for the Jujutsu Sorcerers to put Yuji Itadori and himself down like Old Yeller. No, now was not the time to rape and pillage and have his fun.
It didn’t mean he was happy about it, though.
Somehow, there was something even worse about not being able to have his way in this form then it had been when his soul was fractured for a thousand years. At least before he’d manifested, he was held back by the fact that it was impossible to do anything else — he literally couldn’t have physically let loose even if he wanted to. He was essentially stuck in purgatory.
But now, when he had the full ability to ravage but had to keep himself in check, with only himself and his self-preservation to answer to? God, it practically fucking burned. It wasn’t right. If he didn’t get some kind of outlet soon, he was going to go crazy. 
It was like he was a dog, kept chained and locked up within the cage of his own skin. But that’s not what he was. He wasn’t a fucking housepet. He was a hunter, a predator.
And a damned good one at that.
There was a huge difference between other Curses and Sukuna. The sorcerers had decided to define this difference by grades. But Sukuna believed that the real explanation was much less academic, much more simple.
After all, just because a curse was “Special Grade” didn’t mean that it was worth a damn. It could have all the cursed energy in the world, but if it didn’t know how to properly hunt? It’d be lucky to last a century. 
They were trophic beings at the end of the day.
Low-level Curses, like flyheads? They were, at best, Primary Consumers. If he were being blunt, most of them were Producers, barely above algae. They tended to draw in more Jujutsu Sorcerers than they were worth. Sitting fucking ducks.
That waste of space from the Juvenile Detention Center? A Secondary Consumer. He could pick off the herbivores that were humans. Injured zebras falling behind the herd like his host and the little girl with the hammer.
And the little patchwork punk? The one that dared to put his pathetic mitts on his soul twice? Sukuna would be generous and call him a Tertiary Consumer. He sure did give that Seven to Three Sorcerer and his host a run for their money.
But Sukuna, himself? Of course, he was an apex predator. He knew how to wait, to watch, to be patient. To wait until his prey was in exactly the right position where victory, making the kill, was guaranteed.
Enter: Yuji’s new little girlfriend. The ingénue. 
The prey.
Okay, so maybe she was some low-hanging fruit, but it’s not like he could be too choosy. And boy was she ripe for the picking.
Besides, a top of the food chain hunter such as himself knew how to make some fun, a chase out of anything. 
Yes, little Yuji Itadori should’ve listened to his teachers. Dating a non-sorcerer, bringing such a tempting piece of meat into his eyeline and waving it around so proudly was a very bad idea.
And Sukuna lived for bad ideas.
“Extension.”
Tumblr media
She perked up as Yuji re-approached, “Hey—!” then paused, head cocking as she noticed something… different about him.
“What’s with the…?” she gestured over her face, indicating the black marks now running across his skin.
“They were doing some face-painting at one of the booths,” he answered simply, lowly, “Looks good, right?”
She flushed a bit at the timber of his voice, eyes dropping to the cup of fluffy ice in her hands. Even imitating Itadori, there was a huskiness, a darkness in Sukuna’s voice that couldn’t be masked. And it sent shivers straight up his prey’s lovely spine.
“Y-Yeah… Looks really good.”
He smirked. Trap set.
“Really good, huh?” he purred, sitting on the bench not only next to her, but with his legs pressing hard against hers.
Her cheeks flushed, giggling as he slid his arm behind her shoulders on the bench, and giddy embarrassment set her body afloat. She liked this, liked it a lot. She always wanted Yuji to sweet-talk and touch her like this, more than she really should honestly. But she was way too embarrassed to ever admit that herself. So this extra flirty mood he seemed to be in at the moment was sending her straight to Cloud 9.
“...Uh— Uh-huh. R-Really good.”
She hazarded a look at his face again, the intensity, the uninhibited desire burning like coal in those lazy-lidded eyes sending an all new feeling of excitement through her body. One she’d been denying for a while.
With a squeak, she looked back forward, jutting the cup of fluffy ice over in his general direction, “D-Do you want some more?!”
He barely paid the measly little treat any mind, far more invested in the delicacy so pretty and wrapped up in an obi for him. 
“Yeah, why not.”
She turned towards him, eyes focussing on his tight chest rather than his sinful eyes, so that she could pick up the spoon and feed him. But before she could even touch the utensil, he reached past it, towards her, and caught a little drip of sweet syrup at the corner of her mouth with his thumb. 
Her breath hitched, loud and embarrassingly. But this only seemed to spur him on. He brushed it slowly along the length of her lower lip, pressing it in ever so slightly when he got to the center, kissing the pad of his thumb to her teeth. He could feel everything about her through this, the way her throat bobbed anxiously, the shuttering breath against his skin, the way her tongue sank forward instinctually to meet him. 
She couldn’t help it, the hypnotic lull that it pulled her into. Her eyes started to shutter closed, but in doing so she noticed something.
His nails.
Sukuna clocked this almost simultaneously, whipping his hand back before she completely lost her stupor and bringing the thumb to his own lips, nails hidden from sight. He made a show of licking the residuals of sweetness off of it, eyes boring straight into hers.
“Tastes even better this way,” he purred.
She flushed and turned away quickly and completely, her back to him, beyond embarrassed, “Y-Yuji—!”
“What?”
“That’s so embarrassing,” she squeaked.
“What do you mean?” he husked, leaning in from above her, pressing impossibly closer into her back, “What’s so embarrassing about loving the way you taste?”
Sukuna could feel her cheeks heat up as he slotted his nose into her shoulder, “In fact…”
He pressed his mouth, motionless, into the nape of her neck. He breathed into it, doing everything in his power to get a whisper of a taste of that skin, without devouring her whole.
“I’d love to taste more.”
He ran his hands down her arms, nails catching on every goosebump. They were going slow, teasing, but they weren’t stopping. No, they were not stopping their descent. Not until they got to—
“Y-Yuji,” she gasped out an embarrassed laugh as his hands slipped down to cover her own over the cup, sticky and cold from the fluffy ice dripping forgotten over them, “Come on, there are people around…”
“And?” Sukuna’s fingers weaved with her own squeezing tight, his hips slanting flush against her ass, “If there weren’t people around?”
She tilted her head back, startled by how close his lips were to hers when she did so. Startled, but not scared off. No. Intoxicated. Caught in the center of the spider’s web.
Trapped. Right where he wanted her.
Sukuna’s smirk widened and he caught her lips, all pretense gone. He was going in for the kill.
Tumblr media
There was a reason why she was easy prey, and it wasn’t just because she was meek and malleable, easy for Sukuna to overwhelm even without powers.
It was because she wanted this from Yuji, had wanted it for a while, actually. If he didn’t know from all the needing looks and batting lashes she’d sent his way over the last six months — a virgin whore if he’d ever seen one —  it was more than obvious now. The way she grinded against him, gasped excitedly as he shoved her against a tree, back arching as he turned the top of her yukata into a belt, exposing her bare chest to his rough, relentless palms.
He was brought back to the other fucks he’d had under this very tree, when he’d been able to dig his claws into the flesh of shrine maidens until he felt bone. Or that village girl whose spine he’d snapped in half as he came.
This wasn’t nearly as physically exhilarating as those times, but there was something oddly even more exciting about it on a sentimental level. Of course, it was his first fuck in over a millennia, and a virgin at that (his fucking favorite), but she was Yuji’s too. 
Yuji’s girlfriend, Yuji’s love, Yuji’s prize to be won — and he’d stolen her right under the brat’s nose. The only thing that would make it better would be if Yuji could actually see it right now.
He could let that go for now though, especially considering how pliant and eager she was, the way she held back her yelps and locked down any complaints as they slipped down to the cold, crackly ground, her bare back grinding hard into the bark. He knew that it hurt her, he could smell the blood and feel the way her breath hitched in his mouth, and yet miraculously, she didn’t say a word. She wanted this to happen, she wanted to make him happy. And she was too shy to voice anything that might result in otherwise.
“You ready?” he purred, already shoving his pants down to his knees and giving himself a few preparatory pumps, regardless of her answer.
She gulped, and nodded hurriedly.
As soon as he moved her panties to the side and rubbed the head of his cock against her entrance exploratorily, Sukuna knew she was lying. Her body was clearly not quite there. She was plenty wet, sure, but she was still tense from the nerves, and shallow from the lack of prep. 
That was fine though. Actually, it was great. That added ring of resistance? That’s what made virgins and victims the absolute perfect prey, that’s what made them intoxicating.
He couldn’t have held back if he wanted to.
Without any other warning, he slammed his hips forward, fucking her fully.
She cried out with a volume that was clearly not all from joy. She was hurt. And he almost came on the spot at the sound.
“Are you okay?” he asked, just to keep in character. He didn’t care either way.
“Mm—! Mm-hmm!” she nodded frantically, tears clear in her eyes and hesitant to open her mouth, lest she reveal the actual pain she was in.
Oh, a little tough girl, huh? He could fucking fall in love.
Sukuna kept a serious face, but inside he was splitting in two, smiling.
“You sure? Do you want me to stop?” he insisted. It’s not like he would, even if she wanted to. But the idea of her powering through the pain, begging him to keep going even as he broke her? It was just too good to pass up.
“Y-Yes,” she yelped out in such a sweet, strained voice, “P-Please, keep going Yuji!”
He reached forward, running a hand through her hair, that once perfect little updo now frazzled and ruined with leaves and dirt, “I’ll be gentle, okay?”
She sniffled and put on a brave, quivering smile, nodding. He dragged out of her to the tip, slowly, expertly, pulling from her the first little gasp of pleasure.
Then he bottomed out inside her.
She cried out loudly, nails clinging into his back with vicelock strength as he fucked her, truly fucked her. She tried to make those cries sound pleasured, like moans. But she couldn’t hide the screams they truly were. She pulled him closer so that she could try and muffle them into his shoulder. 
But that wouldn’t do. No, that would not fucking do.
The hand in her hair tightened, pulling her head back harshly so that she had nowhere to direct her noise but into the night sky as he pounded into her. She bit her lip, trying to keep them at bay.
“Fuck, it feels so good,” he groaned, genuinely, “What about you, baby? Do you feel good?”
She tried to just get away with nodding and whining.
“Tell me baby,” he pressed, “Tell me it feels good.”
“I-It… It feels good!” she finally cried out, desperate for him to stop, “Y-Yuji, it feels so good!”
He pressed his lips into her cheek, almost cumming on the spot as the streams of tears down her skin touched his tongue.
“I love you so much,” he growled shamelessly.
She smiled a face-splitting smile, eyes wide and puffy, and body completely open and raw, as she tried to love away the pain.
“M-Me too!” she almost gagged, “I love you too!!”
In this life, the previous, or even the next, Sukuna was sure he’d never cum as hard as he did when he saw that face. 
Tumblr media
Yuji stared down at her in absolute horror. What had he done? No, what had he done?!
His girlfriend, that pure, perfect girl, the one true light of his life, was laid out beneath him, a complete mess. Covered in dirt, hickeys, and a sheen of her own sweat and tears. 
Raped.
Her bare chest rose and fell heavily (he could be thankful for that at least), and her cheek rested against the twisting roots of the tree they were under as she tried to catch her breath.
No.
No, no, no, no, no—
Her eyes blinked open as she felt a splash against her flesh, pulling her from her post-sex daze. She turned to look up at Yuji, instantly shocked to see him hunched over her and sobbing uncontrollably.
“Yuji?” she gasped, “Yuji what’s wrong?”
“I… I-I just—” he choked, trying desperately not to throw up. His fingers ran shakily across the divots in her skin, the scratches and bitemarks, “Are you o-okay?”
She followed his stroking hands to her marred shoulders and whipped back to him with a gasp.
“Ohhh, sweetie no— don’t worry about those! I’m fine!”
“A-Are you sure?” he rasped.
“Of course!” she pulled him down into a tight embrace, “I loved it, Yuji.”
Those words stabbed him harder and hotter than anything else she could’ve said. Made it all so much worse.
“I absolutely loved it.”

•It was the first thing Megumi ever drew and showed him (It was literally just him and Tsumiki as stick figures) and he cried

•Made Shoko come to his appointments for moral support
CHOSO
•Standard ear piercings
•Usually just sticks to silver or black studs because he’s afraid of being judged :< •With a little push he might wear small hoops occasionally

•Left arm is a complete sleeve filled with various details such as red spider lilies, various geometric patterns, and names of his loved ones hidden throughout
•Simplistic patterns running up his fingers on both hands
•Did not budge during any of the procedures, however the intensity of many of his healing processes usually rendered him unable to do certain things, so he often required assistance afterwards, even while swearing up and down he didn’t (he almost fell down the stairs)

Disability pride request? Two characters of your choice hanging out, maybe one using two forearm crutches and one using two canes. They can be friends or partners - I just generally love seeing disabled characters interactng with one another!
How about three disabled characters?
Once upon a time @camille-lachenille sent me a prompt about Míriel having Ehler-Danlos Syndrome. I had already sketched a disabled Celegorm with EDS in mind and, thinking about how it's genetic, had an epiphany about Celebrimbor (and the meaning of his name) and I drew him as well. So I wrote a fic about all three of them dealing with chronic pain, but I still hadn't drawn Míriel. That oversight is now fixed!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They have more in common than just chronic illness xD.
This is still titled "The EDS gang" in my files, I'm going to stick to it. Set sometime in Fourth Age Valinor, when most things are good again...
Disabled Tolkien characters series
(Feel free to send me more disability prompts! I love drawing them.)
More ramblings about disability aids that devolved into bullet-point headcanons under the cut. ID and transcription at the end, but they're also in alt text.
[CW: this is all fairly light but discussion of death and trauma and you know, everything that comes with these three.]
I do not know how to make comics. I'm sure that's very obvious but, you know, learning new things and all that. One thing I learned was that my usual style of rendering does not work with it as well so I rendered them entirely twice.
It was meant to be day 21 and 22 of my October challenge, because surely I can draw and colour a full page in a day (spoilers: no). In the end it was a combined 15 hours of work over 3 and a half days because I made it as complicated as I possibly could 😭 Still, I had fun and learned a lot.
Note: Ehlers-Danlos syndrome is a connective tissue disorder, affecting basically how your cells are glued together. There are a lot of different symptoms (and different types of EDS) but a frequent one is joint pain and hypermobility, and it's at least partly inherited.
Míriel:
Red was Míriel's colour first. She's not into gaudy things and rarely wears vivid colours, but almost always something red. She barely wears any jewellery since reembodiment, mostly for sensory reason (She is very autistic. That's something she gave Fëanor, Curufin, Caranthir, Ambarussa and Celebrimbor, at least.)
She died of post-partum (and general) depression and energy depletion from childbirth or something, but the chronic illness that was taking all of her energy and keeping her from her craft certainly didn't help.
Also pregnancy was horribly rough on her, partly because EDS can be affected by hormonal changes.
She's actually been better since reembodiment, because she has better accommodations (Finwë did his best but he was very lost) and also a Vala on hand who makes her very good painkilling tea.
She wears knitted compression gloves that she designed to help with hand pains.
Her wheelchair is of Noldor make, but I'm sure Celebrimbor will have suggestions for improving it.
The tapestry that she is weaving is actually this painting of Finrod that I did a while ago. I figure that she's representing calmer, nicer things now that she doesn't have to weave her grandchildren's downfall and deaths.
Celegorm:
He was in a relationship with Oromë before the Exile. After his reembodiment, it took them a while by they talked it out and forgave each other. Oromë doesn't quite get elves, but he's really supportive.
He has a pair of wolf-head canes carved by Nerdanel. He alternatively uses both, just one and sometimes none depending on activity/pain level.
He wears bandages as compression garments because this is a world without elastane. His leggings have reinforced knees for support.
He's always heard about Míriel having the same thing as he does from Finwë, and he knew that when he started showing symptoms, Fëanor was terrified that he'd fade too. So for a long time, Míriel's story was kind of hanging above his head.
That's why it takes him a while to go seek her out after he's reembodied. Celebrimbor understands why it's important to him and he pushed him to it a little bit, so Celegorm dragged him along.
They're going to get along great. Míriel is both the quintessential grandmother and also she has a twisted sense of humour that Celegorm will just love.
Celebrimbor:
Celegorm was always his favourite uncle, and they became very close when Celebrimbor started having symptoms in the early years in Exile, and Celegorm stayed with Curufin in Himlad for him.
It took Celebrimbor a while to forgive him after Returning (not as long as Curufin but still) but they've gone back to being really close.
He was really unlucky with reembodiment: while he wasn't reborn with the physical aspect of his torture, the memory of pain and the trauma made his chronic pain a lot worse than it was before, and he can no longer walk unaided.
He designed the silver ring and wrist splints back in Eregion with Narvi's help, and ended up literally living up to his name (which means "silver fist/grasping hand").
Paradoxically these were a great motivation for him to work through his trauma and go back to the forge, because he couldn't find a silversmith in Valinor who could make good enough ones for him, even with all of his sketches and specifications.
A lot of his work since reembodiment has been designing and making disability aids for people.
He uses platform crutches to spare his hands as much as possible. He invented and designed them, of course, as well as the KAFO brace that he wears here. He's also a part-time wheelchair user.
He is still wearing dwarven beads in his hair. He obviously didn't bring anything back from Middle-Earth but he asked Gimli to make them for him in remembrance of Narvi. His tunic is also dwarven-inspired.
He is pretty chill about Sauron here. I don't know if there was a redemption (I have feelings about @chthonion's The Harrowing and @mynameisjessejk's Otter Mayhem) or if he's just been through enough elf-therapy to be able to joke about it. Celegorm's sense of humour is just Like That.
Celegorm and Celebrimbor are about to try Vairë's special painkilling tea for the first time 👀
Between all of them they should really open a disability aids shop or something. They just might! Míriel doesn't really ever leave Vairë's house but I think Celegorm and Celebrimbor will keep visiting her a lot, and eventually all of the grandkids will as well.
Image description and transcriptions:
Two digital comic book pages.
Image 1: The first case takes the whole width, showing two pairs of feet with each two canes/crutches on a tiled floor, with a speech bubble saying "Do you think she'll want to see us?"
The second line has two cases in 2/3 and 1/3 format. The first shows two hands in red fingerless gloves working on a tapestry on a loom. The second shows part of a light-skinned face in profile, with curly white hair. Three speech bubbles say "My love?" "Um?" "There are people here asking for you."
The bottom part has one case off-center showing the same hand undoing the brake of a wheelchair, with a speech bubble saying "Your grandson and your great-grandson." above and one saying "I'll be right here." below. Then a full-length off-case portrait of Miríel, a light-skinned elf with shoulder-length curly white sitting in a wheelchair and pushing herself. She's wearing a pale pink embroidered dress with red accents, red fingerless gloves and elbow pad and brown boots and smiling.
Image 2: A single large case shows two elves standing in a room with a tiled floor, with a large door and two tables behind them. There are thread spools on one table and a tea set on the other. One elf, Celebrimbor, is brown-skinned and slightly chubby, with long black hair in a braided bun, wearing a red tunic and dark green pants. He is leaning on two decorated platform combo crutches made of wood and metal, with a KAFO brace on his leg. He wears finger and hand silver splints. The other elf, Celegorm, is pale and has long white hair in a high ponytail with small braids, he has tattoos on his neck and arms and he wears bandages on his shoulders, elbows and wrist. He wears a green tunic, leggings and wrap-around gaiters. He is leaning on a cane and holding up another cane, pointing at the first elf. Both canes have handles carved in the shape of wolf heads.
The speech bubbles are arranged around and below them, giving this dialogue, with the speakers distinguished by the shape of the bubble (the parts in parentheses are smaller text in the bubbles):
Celegorm: "My lady, my name is Tyelkormo, and this is my nephew Tyelpë." Miríel: "I know who you are, my wonderful children. Come sit." Celebrimbor: "That would be nice, thank you." Miríel: "Vairë, my love, would you make us some tea?" Celebrimbor: "My lady!" Celegorm: "A Vala who can make tea! (I could never get Oromë to do it.)" Miríel: "It was a long domestication process." Vairë (off screen): "Hey!" Celebrimbor: "Instant hot water! That’s nice. (I wonder if I could replicate that.)" Miríel: "She makes wonderful hot water bottles." Celegorm: "Oromë just uses his hands as hot pads." Celebrimbor: "Ew, I didn’t need to know that." Celegorm: "What? Just because your Maia burns everything he touches–" Celebrimbor: "Shut up." Miríel: "You must both tell me everything about yourself. And your partners!"

I have this incredibly specific WrioChi scenario rotating around in my head that I have to throw out there before it drives me insane. Imagine the following:
Childe seeing Wriothesley walking out of his office, calling out to him, and leaping right off the second floor of the administrative zone at him, and Wriothesley panicking and dropping everything in his arms to catch him and then reprimanding him to "Stop DOING that, you brat!!!" And Childe is just like "but it's fun and you always catch me!"
"I should let you drop," Wriothesley grumbles, though his hold doesn't loosen. If anything, Childe feels his grip tighten slightly as the redhead pretends to contemplate the possibility.
"Mmmm..." he hums thoughtfully, "well, I guess I'll have to hope I land on my feet!" The shrug that follows gets the Duke's brows to twitch lightly on his otherwise stone cold expression.
"You'll break your legs from that height." His grip tightens again. Childe grins. He knows this of course. Vision users have tougher bodies, so he'd have to land wrong, but breaking a bone was a very real possibility. However, he'd heal it off relatively quickly, especially compared to the havoc his Foul Legacy wreaks upon his body, and it was a risk he was willing to take. Not only did Childe have plenty of trust in his own body's capabilities and expertise in executing dangerous drops and cushioning rolls safely, but:
"You will never let that happen." Childe's confident reply echoes in the nonexistent space between them, reverberating through Wriothesley's bones.
"I just told you, I will let you fall," Wriothesley scowls down at him. His grip is a little painful, but his voiced threat is rendered ineffective against Childe, who smiles, softer this time, the sharp teasing corners tempered by the concern that was pacing a visible hole through the frost of the other's gaze.
"You told me you should, Your Grace, but your eyes say you won't." For a second those same eyes widen at his words, and Childe knows he hit the nail on the head. He grins in delight as Wriothesley averts his gaze silently, confirming it further.
For a man who was once meant to keep him captive and kept so many secrets, the Warden was a terribly easy man to trust in.
Childe was never a fan of... relying on others. It wasn't really in his playbook, couldn't be, with the kind of profession he was in, the coworkers he worked with. Physically, letting any part of his plans fall on anyone else's shoulders always came with a threat of failure and fatality. Emotionally, the idea of letting people close to him, like his family, in on his worries was even more devastating. Frankly, letting anyone else into his heart and head was always going to be out of the question. Or so he thought.
The Traveler, was one such newcomer into Childe's limited circle. And when they both found themselves in Fontaine once again for one reason or another, the Traveler, ever the networking expert, introduced him to Wriothesley over a cup of the Duke's fine tea. Introduced was, admittedly, a strong word for a situation in which Wriothesley already had his name, family's names, occupation, and detailed criminal record on file. It was a jarring experience to say the least, to have a complete stranger ask after the well-being of his siblings, but at the end of the day, he could finally put a face to the grand title he had heard so many times during his stint in the prison. Even with the amount of reverence people spoke of their Duke with, Childe had been unprepared for the kind of person he really was in the flesh.
Shrewd and cautious, stomping out problems quickly and efficiently. Polite and charismatic, yet tangibly dangerous and unafraid to resort to brutality when his hand was forced. Wriothesley was nothing if not reliable; he protected his values and people with a steadfast viciousness that Childe recognized intimately -- an indomitable, resolute determination that matched his own.
It seemed like there was nothing thrown his way that Wriothesley couldn't handle, and Childe couldn't help but want to test the limits. Posing himself as the world's most difficult problem to solve was an endeavor that came quite naturally to the Harbinger, but perhaps it was Childe's limits that had truly been tested.
Wriothesley had stepped up to the challenge before him and, while neither had expected to tumble into bed together in the process, it had not been unwelcome. Under the Duke's attentive gaze and steady hands Childe found himself being taken apart piece by piece and reconstructed into a version of himself that felt lighter somehow. It was months later that Childe lay awake with the realization that the lightness came with the missing pieces, the shards of his long-fragmented heart that Wriothesley gently pried out from his scars and bones and swallowed down diligently to keep them safe inside himself. And yet, Childe had never felt more whole.
He had come to trust Wriothesley to a degree he could have never even imagined. It was... less frightening than it should have been to have someone hold his heart this way. To have someone he felt so completely safe with. Childe knew that on a physical level he was the overall stronger fighter from their spars, but this did not take away from the serene sense of security Wriothesley's presence gave him. To put it simply, Wriothesley was someone he found himself comfortable with. He was someone who did not judge him at face value, but rather worked to understand his behaviors on a level Childe could never recall anyone bothering to do. Even now, it felt as though the other had already figured out Childe's motivations on a deeper level than Childe himself.
The Duke looks at him again, this time his eyes alight with a streak of mischief that makes Childe's pulse skip a beat in anticipation.
"...Tell you what, if you stop throwing yourself off the mezzanines, I'll reward you."
"A reward from the Duke himself? Must be quite generous!~" Childe fishes coyly for any further information with a lash lidded look and his fingers playing with Wriothesley's tie. The wolfish grin the Duke gives him in response sends a spark flickering down his spine. Wriothesley sets him down, one hand settling familiarly on his hip as the other comes up to tilt his chin up to hold his gaze.
"You'll have to find out, won't you? Although you can rest assured I am a firm believer in paying people what they are owed." Wriothesley's eyes glitter with promise, keeping Childe's breath hostage in the back of his throat. No precise details, huh? Well, Childe is a curious man by nature, so this suits him just fine; the intrigue adds to the fun of it all.
"I'll take you up on that then, Your Grace. I'll make sure to be a good boy for the duration of this visit, and we'll see if your reward is satisfactory enough for me to behave next time, " he teases lightly, and Wriothesley huffs a sharp chuckle of amusement through his nose, giving Childe's hip an affectionate squeeze of agreement before letting go to go pick up what he had dropped earlier to catch him.
Childe missed his touch already.

Have u ever posted your comic or animation workflow anywhere? Im super curious on how you tackle the process, especially not using a drawing tablet. I know you have a very simple (and adorable) style so that probably helps in terms of workflow -- Im just curious about the steps you take.
Thank you! With both comics and animation my key thing is to not spend too much time on any particular thing, just draw loose and fast. Honestly the only downside to drawing with a mouse is that I can tell my arm has extremely specific muscle memory regarding it- if my mouse breaks and I get a new one I have to spend a good month or so just letting my hand get used to it again lol. Same with if my setup gets readjusted too much- right now my setup is my mouse on one of those padded mousepads, on top of 2 books, with my elbow resting on my 3DS case (I'll get an actual pillow or something for it eventually lol). But luckily thanks to this I suffer very minimal wrist pain 👍
(...Okay I started to go really in depth in my process here, so sorry if this is way more than what you were asking. Putting it under a readmore just to save space lol)
With MFM in particular, I start by writing out the entire script for the next story arc, which really is just all of the dialogue and vague notes about any important actions. Then I do the paneling with very loose stick-figure like sketches of where the characters are and what they're doing. I prefer having very little planning when it comes to character poses and panel shapes, coming up with those on the fly makes things much more exciting and faster to make. But it's the opposite with dialogue... it needs to be 100% FINAL before I draw a single line lol.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
That's part of my script for my most recent chapter, as well as what my extremely loose goofy thumbnail sketching is like. I write the script as one big thing and don't separate it into pages until I actually start drawing- then I go and color change it just to keep track of what dialogue goes on each page
After that, I go back and do the ACTUAL sketch, as well as the lettering (I don't believe this is how it's done professionally. I used to do lettering as the very last step in the process... but then found it hard to cram speech bubbles in the right places lmao.) After that is lineart, coloring, background flat colors, then shading/rendering for all of it. I do each step in batches, as in I sketch out ALL pages of a chapter before moving to lineart, I line ALL pages before starting coloring, etc. I find it way easier to be productive when it's broken up like that, though when I first started the comic I used to draw each page to completion before starting the next (but also, the comic's style was DRASTICALLY simpler back then haha)
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Unfortunately I merged some of the shading to the background flat colors so it's not entirely accurate... oops) FireAlpaca has a sand texture feature that I only found out about last year- adding that to the backgrounds makes them look 10x better with WAY less effort.
With animation, it depends on the project. For simple 5-10 second animation I make for fun, there's very little planning lol. I skip some steps in the process- I'll sketch out the keyframes (and maybe any difficult inbetweens if necessary), line those, then go straight into making linework inbetweens. I'm not a cleanup artist and have no experience in that, so I always find trying to line my rough animation makes everything jittery and wobbly. If I do it with a clean line from the start then I can avoid that and save a lot of time 👍
For my bigger projects (such as the Parvey cartoon and the MFM Kickstarter trailer), I do the whole animatic with final audio first and foremost, with the animatic being almost like the keyframes. I split them up into individual shots, .mp4 files anywhere between 1-30 seconds usually, and animate those one at a time. I'm a huge fan of free to use programs and try to use them as much as I possibly can, here's a list of the ones I use:
FireAlpaca- for the actual drawing part itself (storyboarding/animating/etc). FireAlpaca has a feature that lets you export every frame as it's own drawing, as well as an onion skin mode
Windows Movie Maker- for compiling all of those frames into video format, creating individual shots. If you upload all of your frames and set them to around 0.08 seconds, it equals about 12fps (I usually animate at 0.10 seconds/10fps, its a bit slower but looks nice)
Onlinesequencer.net- for making music. It's the place I've made all of my songs on, like the timeloop song, hyperworkaholic, and the background music for the MFM Kickstarter trailer.
Audacity- for editing audio/music. Also great for recording things directly from your desktop
DaVinci Resolve- for editing and putting together all of the shots into one big video. Can get kind of intensive on the computer during rendering, so watch out.
YouCut (app)- also for editing and compiling shots, I used this one a lot a couple years back but I'm not sure how well it holds up. Doesn't need much phone storage to download but needs a lot to render videos.
MS Paint (yes really)- for typing up text. FireAlpaca has a text option but I don't like it as much as Paint's.
...The only thing I genuinely can't do alone is voice acting. Luckily there's a big voice acting community on Twitter and they're all amazing to work with!
This got... way more in depth than I planned for it to be, so sorry if this is way more than what you were asking lol. But that's my general process when it comes to my art 👍

Been going a bit feral thinking about Stampede Vash grappling, so can I request headcanons for Vash grappling a afab reader? Fluff or nsfw, or both, whichever you want.
On the one hand its really sweet, because aww, they Trust Him enough to let him put them in various holds and grapples (some of which, it has to be said, involve Vash touching a lot of boob, because thats how center of gravity works). But also Vash and reader getting flustered about it because hhhnng, friend pretty, and grappling training involves a lot of getting sweaty and gross together and touching and your face being close to theirs- or other parts of their anatomy.
(There's even a move where you try and and smoosh somebody to your chest enough that they can't breathe/tap out, and trying to practice that while having tits is. A Process. Wearing a sports bra helps, but it can still be a pain.)
Also maybe reader getting pinned and/or put in a chokehold by Vash and just being like. "OH. I see this has awoken something in me." "Oh, shit, I actually really trust him with my body and safety, and not just in a friendly way." "OH NO, HE'S HOT."?
I had to do so much research just to figure out what grappling was, and I'm mad at myself for not knowing because this. THIS. It's good stuff. ;)
Vash happily agreed to your request for a bit of grappling training. To him, it would be a fun way to work not only himself out, but you would also get in a good workout with it as well. It was two birds with one stone. You both get into the correct stance and, before you can even blink, the blond acts quickly.
Your back is firmly pressed against the floor as Vash has one leg across your neck, pinning you down while he has a grip on one of your arms, tugging it in a way that seems like it should hurt, but it doesn't. Your eyes are wide as you realize just how close his thigh is to your face, and you try not to think about it. You eventually have to tap out with your free hand, to which he immediately releases his hold on you.
You're not entirely sure as to why such a thought even entered your mind like that. It wasn't as if he did or said anything. Maybe it was what he wore that twisted your thoughts? Your eyes glanced over his attire, soaking in his black turtleneck and sweats combo, though your eyes may have stayed too long on the sweats.
Snapping yourself out of that mindset and focusing on the training at hand, you got back into your previous position, with Vash mimicking it. After a few seconds, you both went at one another, except this time around it was you that got him in a hold.
His back was on the ground while his head rested on one of your legs. You had an arm around his neck in a sort of chokehold while the other pulled at one of his arms, rendering him unable to break free from it. Such a position allowed for an increased closeness, which you realized how anyone walking in on such a scene would think the way you currently were.
Vash's face was practically smushed against your chest due to this position, and you couldn't tell whether or not he was affected by it. You, on the other hand, couldn't help but feel the tips of your ears burn as you stared down at him. His eyes held no glint within, so knowing whether or not what his thoughts were was impossible. Except, he didn't make a move to tap out, which would free him. Perhaps this was a sign?
Though he tapped out the second your brain thought it, and you quickly released your hold on him. He made a comment that praised you on getting him down to the floor as quick as you did, and you thanked him, smiling as the two of you got into the same stance for a third time.
You really couldn't stop thinking about how you practically smothered his face with your breasts, and that thinking is what caused you to lose focus and hit the ground with a thud. It didn't hurt, and your eyes widened at the realization of the position Vash put you in.
His weight pressed against your body, keeping you in place on the floor. He had one hand at your hip while an arm was planted across you, in between your neck and breasts. The blond's face was mere inches from your own and you honestly felt like passing out with the way he stared down at you.
Lips curved upwards into such a sweet smile while his eyes crinkled as they stared into your own. "Fuck," you breathed out, and it caught him off guard, having his first thought going towards how he might be hurting you with his full weight. He went to lift himself up off of you, yet you tugged him back down with a free hand and mimicked his earlier smile. "Don't move," you told him, "I like this position."
Only then did it click with him. He realized that, through all of the sweat from this session, the positions and the sheer closeness each one put you together in produced certain thoughts. Thoughts he really didn't think about until now. Well, that's a lie, but you didn't have to know that, yet.
His lips copied your smile, and he brought his face down a little more, the tip of his nose brushing against yours. "Did you like the other positions, too?" His smiled broadened when you gave a quick nod.
"I hope the second one wasn't too much." He shook his head at you and chuckled. You felt a little embarrassed having his face so close to your chest.
"It wasn't," he smiled, "they were...soft. It felt nice." You hummed in response and felt the urge to close the gap between you and him, your lips brushing against his in a soft, yet hungry, kiss. He didn't pull away or attempt to show any disgust with the sudden action. Instead, he worked his lips against yours, tasting them before he had to pull away. "You want to--"
"Continue this elsewhere? Yes."

My partners and I are having a baby in May, and I'm excited to be a mom, but I also keep returning to your story "Checking In" over and over. It feels like a chapter of my life is closing and I know that a new one is starting and it'll have its joys too (including erotic ones!) but I can't help but be sad to see part of me go, or at least some of the dreams that have animated the last 7 or 8 years of my life (sexual and otherwise).
I think you said one time that you don't fuck with mothers because they usually have something in their life more important than you, and that speaks to me. My own mom told me that once you have a child, they're the only thing that matters, and while I think that kind of ego auto-annihilation is probably maladjusted (and maybe explains why I felt like she resented me sometimes when I was a child) I do feel the possibility of worshipping at someone's feet with a truly clear mind is being foreclosed upon, at least for a long time.
I'll be 52 when they turn 18, and I remind myself that hey, I find 52 year old women hot all the time, but 34 year olds aren't even exactly in huge demand now. It's not like my sexuality will disappear between now and then either, but it's hard to imagine what it'll be like. Having an hour alone with my vibrator interrupted by a crying infant I have to go nurse has a weirdly erotic frisson of its own, but I imagine it'll be challenging for a good while.
I told my therapist a version of this but I guess I wanted you to know it, too. I've sent you asks before and through your replies felt closer to, if not my God, then at least something I could pretend was for a little while. It's not like I'll stop cumming to your ouevre, either. I guess I just want you to know that although we only ever had cursory interactions, they mattered a lot to me, and will still matter a lot to me even though my relationship to it feels like it's exchanging a feeling of absurd aspiration for a tinge of wistful regret. Maybe that's selfish, I don't know, but it felt worth saying. Thank you for existing.
First, that was beautiful. My heart somehow managed to make the sound “Awwwwwwwww”. Seriously. I’m actually worried. But until the ambulance gets here…
Second, I am touched like Beyoncé singing to a little blind girl… I mean, that a young lady in your condition keeps re-reading “Checking In”, well, that’s just hot. But more importantly, I’m not happy if the words can’t reach you wherever you are. I like that they keep finding their way to you —and you, to them— even when you wind up in the cultural primordial soup of procreation.
Think about how deep you’ve gone! Months of your life, taken by a creature that doesn’t acknowledge your humanity; your body reshaping itself against your will; your organs playing God between your legs. And from here, beyond the horizon of fear and pain and relief, lurks eighteen long years of servitude and struggle and half-completed, clumsily rendered “I ❤️ yuo mOm” cards scrawled on construction paper. You’re in the thick of it. And presumably, of you.
To reach you there? That’s high praise indeed. Thank you, kiddo.
RE: sad to see part of me go
You’re simultaneously tugging at my heartstrings and making me envious of whoever has the joy of putting you through this most exquisitely human of tortures. I am totally jelly.
So much is being inflicted upon you, so many choices are being made that you can never take back… and people on the street will congratulate you. They’ll infantilize you, and frighten you, and shame you, and tell you smiling lies, and touch you like your body no longer belongs to you. You will become both less and more than human for a few months, and then WHAM, back down into the dirt of life, only now all the rules have changed and something really smells around here.
(A fun example of how you can be both catered to and disregarded all at once: note how much effort I’ve put into this response.)
All of which I’ve said so that I can say this: go, my dear child? Are you kidding? That part of your life isn’t going anywhere. It’s in everything you do. It’s who you are. You’re just modulating your relationship with it.
RE: something in their lives more important than you
It’s just better for everyone. Sometimes sad and disappointing, yeah… but better. I like clarity rather than confusion, and while keeping a girl perpetually suspended between dueling interests sounds like something I’d enjoy, it’s really not in this case.
RE: truly clear mind
Do you need that with someone? I mean, really need it? You obviously want it, we know that. But being pregnant at all suggests you might not need it.
That’s okay, y’know. Having a mostly clear mind? It’s okay. It doesn’t have to be spotless and sublime. I know I seem perfect to a certain kind of girl because I am, in fact, perfect for a certain kind of girl… but I represent precisely one way to push all those buttons of yours. Maybe someone else can’t push them exactly the way I would, and maybe you’ll always wonder if it’s somehow… less. Maybe it will be less, but you’ve gained enough elsewhere to soothe the burn of loss. Life is full of trade-offs… make the most of the trades you make.
RE: 52
I won’t bullshit you and tell you that life for a highly sexual fifty-two year old girl isn’t tricky. Our cultural cult of youth marches on, and pauses for no woman. But it won’t be exactly the way you picture it. After all, there will always be cruel, possessive 75 year old men with viagra prescriptions and amended wills ready to give you a whole new perspective on your oldest desire.
RE: challenging for a while
Yup, it’ll be a challenge. But you can do it, soldier. It’s your goddamned job. And good girls do their jobs. If you do yours the best you can, as thoughtfully as you can, then I suspect you’re gonna be okay.
RE: if not my God, at least something I could pretend was
It’s important to remember that the aspect of me that owns women is extremely possessive and proscriptive, but the aspect that inhabits your imagination is really relaxed about that whole “no other gods before him” thing. He’s happy just to own a little plot of land between your ears, a place to set up housekeeping… a hearth to keep the fire burning.
Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things unseen. You can lose your faith, but only when you stop dreaming.
RE: they mattered a lot to me, and will still matter a lot
There goes that heart thing again. I feel like it’s definitely not supposed to do that. Someone would have, y’know… mentioned it. “My heart just made a sound like a Pentatonix made of wheezing banshees leading a funeral dirge” feels like something people would talk about if it came up. Y’know, in passing.
Bless you, sweet person. I’m proud of you for bravely taking such a difficult path.
And you’re welcome.

Hi! So I had this idea lol.
You know that joke where a friend wakes up in the hospital and the friends ask what the last thing they remember is? So the friend says the last thing that happened but the friends are like “Omg dude! That was 3 years ago!” And make them think that they were in a coma for a little bit and lost some memories?
Well what if Wild got rendered unconscious in a battle or something and the chain does that joke on Wild (because they don’t know anything about his backstory or adventure yet) and he starts freaking out and they realize “oh shoot, that didn’t go well…” so prank gone wrong, you know? With Wild whump because watching him have emotional pain is fun!😂
(I meant to reply to this earlier! sorry anon, have this little snippet I wrote)
"Wild? Link? Are you with us?"
Wild groaned, holding a hand to his head as he blinked dazedly. Everything felt fuzzy as the world finally began to make sense around him.
"Wild!" Hyrule exclaimed, eyes wide as he prodded at the Champion's head.
"What's the last thing you remember?" Warriors questioned, hovering over both Wild and Hyrule.
"Um..." Wild grimaced as Hyrule touched a particularly sensitive spot. "I remember... fighting a battle? There... there was a Hinox... I got hit in the head?"
Beside them, Wind scoffed, muffling a giggle. "Wild, that happened six months ago!"
Wild's whole world stopped. He slapped Hyrule's hands away, scuffling backward until his back hit a tree. "No, no, no..." He grabbed both sides of his head, breathing heavily as he brought his knees up to his chest. "No, not- not again, please, I-" The Champion choked on a sob, body trembling as he curled in on himself. "No no no no no..."
Twilight carefully placed a hand on Wild's forearm, sitting down beside the terrified Champion. "Cub," he murmured, shaking his head. "It's okay. Wind was just joking; you didn't lose your memory."
Wild peeked up at the rancher, eyes wet with tears as he sniffled. "I didn't?"
Twilight shook his head. "Nope. You got knocked out by that Hinox only about five minutes ago," he reassured the distraught Champion. "It was just a bad joke." The rancher shot a look back at Wind.
The sailor raised his hands, shaking his head. "How was I supposed to know?!" He sighed, wrinkling his nose in guilt as he glanced at Wild. "...Sorry. I didn't mean to upset you. It was supposed to be funny, I didn't think-"
"It's fine." Wild pushed Twilight off him as well, face solemn and steely as he stood up.
"Cub-"
"It's fine," the Champion hissed, almost growling at his companions. "...Let's just go."
Twilight, Wind, Hyrule, and Warriors exchanged glances, shrugging helplessly as Wild started to wander in a random direction.
"What do you think happened?" Hyrule asked quietly, frowning.
Warriors sighed, pressing his lips into a thin line. "I don't know. But whatever it was, it really affected him." They all glanced back to where Wild was standing, still shaking the tiniest amount. "It's up to him whether or not he wants to talk about it."
"Poor Cub," Twilight mumbled, mostly to himself. "I'm sorry."

Tumblr media
Certain suitors inspire different feelings in me. Gilbert makes me scared, Leon makes me giddy, and Keith makes me a hoe. So, I'm blessing all of us with some filthy, filthy smut from our first prince of Jade.
As always, minors do not interact and please read warnings before reading.
warnings: nsfw, vaginal sex, oral (male receiving)
Far Beyond Your Duty
word count: 750
You know you shouldn’t be doing this. As Belle, your only duty is to know the Rhodolite princes enough to pick the best king. You have no business with the visiting princes. In fact, Sariel has warned you over and over to stay away lest they find out your true identity.
It was supposed to be just a simple trip to the bakery, and Keith’s kind smile made it difficult to say no. Even Rio relented and left the both of you alone. Everything had been fine up until you both returned to the palace, where Keith dragged you back to his room without saying a word. And when you looked up at him and saw the feral glint in his golden eyes, you knew you were in trouble.
Now, you were in his bed, lying spread eagle as Keith’s fingers drove into you. His mouth was sucking on your right nipple, his free hand cupping your other breast. Keith’s large frame engulfed you and all you could see, hear, and feel was him. He was everywhere and anywhere and you were left pulling his ashen hair as you struggled to keep your sanity intact.
“Y’know,” Keith whispers in your ear. “I have always wondered why Gilbert and Silvio took an interest in you. They could have any noblewoman they want and yet, they follow you like a pet to their owner.”
Keith removes his fingers from inside you and thrusts them into your mouth. You grip his hand in place, licking every crevice as you relish in the pleased expression on Keith’s face. He forces your legs wide open and aligns his cock with your entrance. You feel the tip of it poking you and involuntarily, you thrust upward. He chuckles.
“I think I found the reason why. Do you do this with them as well? Do you entertain them like this whenever they ask for your company?”
“No. Just you. Only you, Prince Keith.”
“Really now?”
“I’ve never…” you choke on your own words as you feel his cock slowly entering you. You reach out to grasp his shoulders, gasping at the pain of his thick length pushing its way forward.
“You’ve never done this before?”
You nod, neck snapped backward as the pain gradually turns into mind-numbing pleasure.
“That’s okay,” he whispers, his voice soft and gentle against your ear. “You don’t have to do anythin’. You can just lay there and be my little sex doll, hmm?”
As soon as he sheathes himself fully inside you, he starts fucking you. Hard. You wrap your legs around his waist, toes curling as you moan his name over and over again. You’ve never felt so full, and when you look down, you see exactly how wide Keith’s cock is stretching you.
Keith leans down and kisses you passionately. You try to match his movements but you’re rendered mindless with how good he is making you feel. All you can do is receive his every thrust, accept his every kiss, and feel his every touch. You’re rendered delirious, and the only thing that matters is that Keith doesn’t stop fucking you.
“They’ll probably wonder what’s taking you so long to come back from our little trip. Especially that attendant of yours.” Keith grunts as your nails dig deep into his back, leaving scratches that’ll probably hurt the next day.
“But that’s okay,” he continues. “You can tell them you were being a good guide and took me to all the nicest places. You could tell them we had fun. A lot of fun.”
“You just can’t tell them exactly how we had fun. After all, we wouldn’t want them to know how good you are at taking cock, right?”
And as Keith thrusts faster you delude yourself into thinking that you are in fact just being a good hostess. You have a part to play as a noblewoman, a front to prevent the visiting princes from finding out your true identity, and part of your responsibilities is to make sure that they enjoy their stay in Rhodolite.
When Keith pulls away and forces his way inside your mouth, you suck him hard. It was wet and filthy and when you feel his length twitching, you pull away and stroke him to completion. You allow him to paint your face white with his release and it was there when you came to a realization.
You are good at playing hostess. So good that you’re going far and beyond your duty.

Wonder Boy || Steven Grant x Male Reader
Characters: Steven Grant X Male!Reader | Marc Spector X Male!Reader
Fandom: Marvel, Moon Knight
Warnings: None
Summary: Steven was massively crusing on you, and so was Marc even though he denies it.
Tumblr media
Steven Grant was massively crushing on someone.
That someone happened to be you, one of the museum's best tour guides. It was mainly because of your warm personality and the way you made everyone feel welcomed. Your bright, shiny aura drew people in. The ability to make even those uninterested in history curious and ask questions. You described things with such confidence, one would think you were actually there.
Or maybe it was because of your captivating eyes, which he always got lost in. Or your deep, sometimes husky voice that sent shivers down his spine. Or that attractive smile that never failed to leave him speechless.
Marc makes fun of his pinning, of course. He found it hilarious that Steven turned into a blubbering mess in front of you.
Steven didn't know what he was talking about. Marc could deny it until he's out of breath, but Steven could feel him close to the surface whenever he spoke with you. How he sometimes melts at the sound of your laugh.
Steven gave out a small smile, internally gleeful. Not even Marc was immune to your charm.
"He looks lovely today," Steven murmured, staring at you long enough for it to be creepy. He saw Marc rolling his eyes in the mirror, though he felt his agreement.
Marc noticed that you had finished your tour and seemed to be approaching them. Steven was still out of it, so he took control of his hand and slapped him. 
Steven's eyes widened as your eyebrows shot up. Now he didn't normally curse, but he wanted to curse Marc to kingdom come for this.
"Hey, Steven," you said with a smile, deciding to just ignore whatever that was.
Steven attempted to answer back, but his throat suddenly felt dry, and he couldn't get a word out. He couldn't even begin to explain what that was before. 
Marc shook his head at his other half's poor attempt at conversation. Steven's cheeks turned red as you shot him a concerned look. 
That wasn't going away any time soon.
"So how was your day?" You asked curiously. "Anything interesting happen?"
You always seemed interested and asked about his day. Steven wished he could tell you some wild story—or even a funny one—so he could hear you laugh. Alas, he worked at a gift shop, and nothing worth saying ever happens here.
He heard you calling his name and realised that he had zoned out for some time and still hasn't answered your question.
"O-Oh, my day was—it was fine," he stammered, not knowing what to say. "And not really. Being a tour guide would be more exciting, though." He said it wistfully.
You were sympathetic toward his plight. You had definitely tried to help him in that regard. You knew Steven knew Egyptian history, and his enthusiasm for the subject would've made him a great tour guide.
You continued chatting for a while, rambling about myths and stories that completely went over Marc's head. 
When closing time came, you and Steven walked out together in silence; both of you were too tired to speak.
You waved at Steven as you separated. You yawned and put your hands in your pockets. You swallowed, feeling parched from all the talking, not noticing you were being followed by two sketchy-looking men.
You were suddenly tugged into an alley and harshly pushed against the wall, causing you to yell loudly.
Steven, who wasn't so far ahead, jolted as he recognised your voice. Marc instantly took control of the body and ran to you.
What he didn't expect when he turned around the corner was to find you punching a man hard in the face.
He watched, gaping, as you kneed the other one in the stomach, who doubled over in pain, before turning your attention to his partner and kicking him out. You bashed the remaining one's head, rendering him unconscious.
You turned around to see Marc looking at him in disbelief, and you smirked.
Marc broke out of his daze when he saw that he had your attention. He panicked a little, not yet ready to face you, and he quickly surrendered the body to Steven.
"That was bloody brilliant!" Steven gushed, making you smile a bit.
"Ten years of practising karate had their uses," you boasted with a bit of a smirk.
"I guess they did," he said, in awe of you, before suggesting that he accompany you to your house.
You frowned. "Are you sure? It's a little far from your house." 
"No, really, it's okay. I want to make sure you're safe," Steven said sincerely. Your eyes softened, and you smiled at him softly.
"All right," you shrugged, wrapping your arm around his shoulders.
Steven flushed brightly when he made eye contact with you. "Let's go then, wonder boy," he joked, making you laugh loudly.
With that, they went together, and Steven smiled at his—no, he thought as he glanced at his reflection—their wonder boy.

Driving Down Memory Lane (Strange x Reader)
Driving Down Memory Lane (Rated T)
Request?: NO
Pairing: Stephen Strange x Spouse!Reader; Parent!Stephen & America Chavez
Word Count: 1.9k+
Warnings: Mentions of PTSD, few swear words, NO MoM SPOILERS!!
Summary: To celebrate a momentous occasion, you have the genius idea for you and your husband to take America out driving for the first time. What happens when there's a bit of painful nostalgia during the otherwise normal chaos?
Tumblr media
“This is a terrible idea.”
“Stephen, it’s going to be fine.”
“No, it really isn’t,” your husband’s voice sounded nervous as he spoke. “We’re going to die. She’s going to kill us.”
“You know, I am right here,” you could barely see America from your position in the backseat of your car. You watched as her hands flailed about while she went on a rant to husband in Spanish. Although you weren’t fluent in the language yourself, you were able to pick up a few key words: “worry-wart” and “fun killer.”
It was a few days after your unofficial ward’s sixteenth birthday. To celebrate the occasion and the two year anniversary of her coming to stay with you and Stephen in the Sanctum, you had a genius idea. What better milestone was there than to teach America how to drive? At first, Stephen was against the idea. He could think of a million other activities that would be far better suited for the situation.
“What happened to taking her to go mini-golfing?” he had protested. “Or taking her to see Niagara Falls? You know, things that won’t involve us being in a moving vehicle driven by a kid?”
You countered his argument with one of your own. If you were both bent on giving the multiversal traveller a normal life experience, there were some things that needed to happen. Getting behind the wheel of a car was one of those things. It had taken a lot of convincing, but somehow you had managed to get your husband to agree to sit in the front passenger’s seat – a choice he was now regretting once again.
When you brought up the idea to America, the young student could hardly contain herself. “Driving?” she asked, practically bouncing around. “Like a real car? On the road? All by myself?”
“Whoa there, tiger.” A nervous chuckle escaped you as you shook your head. “You won’t be going by yourself. Stephen and I are going to be there to show you the ropes.”
“Yeah, but like, I’ll be behind the wheel and everything, right?!”
“As long as you don’t kill us all,” Stephen had shouted as he strode towards the library. 
Now, your husband fidgeted in his seat while shaky hands idly fiddled with the seat belt. You started kicking yourself immediately after noticing his nervous habits. Stephen hadn’t been in a car in years, not since before his accident. The same accident which ended his previous relationship and ruined his chance at having a successful career as a neurosurgeon. It had rendered his hands useless for months, leading him to venture out and find Kamar-Taj in hopes of a treatment. You had felt rather sad when you and Mordo first met Stephen in the alley, yet you were glad about the situation because, without it, your paths may never have crossed. 
“So, which one’s the gas?” America asked anxiously.
“You don’t know what it looks like?” you drawled your question out, hoping you wouldn’t completely regret this decision. After passing her written test with Wong, you would have thought America would have been given some training with a car. That was apparently not the case. 
“Well, I think it’s on the right…” America leaned forward in her seat with anticipation. You couldn’t help but smile at her curiosity. 
“Why don’t you give it a try since we’re parked?” you suggested, reaching over to place a reassuring hand on Stephen’s shoulder. Your hope was to ease his anxieties over the situation, but you knew trauma is never rewritten overnight – especially when you Blip for five years. 
The rev of the engine startled you both. You hadn’t expected America to find the pedal so easily…or apply that much force to it. “Holy shit,” the young girl shouted from the front seat. “That’s amazing!”
“Language,” you chided. “And you need to ease up on gas. If you go that fast on the road, you’re going to end up impaling us all up on a tree.”
“That’s not how-”
“Doesn’t matter, kiddo,” you wagged your index finger at the rearview mirror. “My car, my rules.”
You couldn’t help the small smile that appeared on your lips as an exasperated sigh flooded the car’s interior. As excited as you were about taking America out for her first lesson, you knew it was important to set the ground rules early. Her (and yours and Stephen’s) safety were the top priority. You may have been able to survive trips throughout the multiverse and battle evil beings on a daily basis, but you weren’t sure how likely it was that you would be getting out of this car without experiencing a mild cardiac event. 
“It’s going to take some time, kiddo,” you tried again. “We just have to start you out with one thing at a time. Before you know it, you’ll be able to go out on the open road by yourself. The only thing we ask is that you have patience and take it slow when you’re getting started.”
You watched as her head bobbed up and down in agreement. “Alright, fine. What’s next?”
 - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
After nearly an hour of practicing use of the gas and brake in the parked car, you and Stephen agreed to let America drive around an empty parking lot. Well, it was more like you agreed while Stephen shook his head and started to turn green at the thought. Since you were in the city, it was hard to find a proper place without any other cars around. So to make things easier, you had Stephen create a portal while you drove the car to a more isolated part of town where you could enter the Mirror Dimension. 
“You have to slow down.” As your life flashed before your eyes, you started to feel bad for your parents when they were teaching you how to drive on your grandparents’ farm. Sure, the constant nagging and reaching for the steering wheel as you attempted your first go at real independence will forever haunt your memory. However, as you now sat in the front passenger’s seat with knuckles as white as a Midwestern Christmas, you were starting to see how right they may have actually been to help you. “You need to ease up on the gas as you’re making those turns.” 
“I’m trying to, but it’s just-” 
“Difficult, I know.” You reached over to gently rub her right forearm. “You will get this, though. I promise.”
It took some time, but America was finally starting to relax with the thought of being behind the wheel. Now it was time for the big test. You could feel your heart pounding in your chest as you asked her to pull out of the lot and onto the road. She started out a bit dodgy, having a bit of difficulty positioning the car itself. As she went on, though, the ride became a lot smoother and the two of you were beaming as you lowered the windows down. 
You guided her through some of the turns, though most of the decisions fell to her. There was some comfort in knowing that even if things did get out of hand, you still had a modicum of control. The mirror dimension had seemed to be the safest call as you found yourself thanking Vishanti for your movements through trees and road barriers when America lost her grip on the steering. 
 Right, Stephen?” The only response you received was silence. “Stephen?” you asked again before shifting in your seat.
Your husband wasn’t paying attention to you. His eyes were focused on the window, his gaze telling you his mind was millions of miles away. There were days you’d find him like this. Usually it happened when he’d be lost in thought or there was a heavy toll on his mind. Since his return from the Blip, Stephen has had more time than usual on his hands – not the best activity for someone with obvious PTSD. 
You gestured to America to go out and stretch her legs in order to give the two of you a moment. Without a second thought, you unclipped your seatbelt and squirmed your way into the backseat next to your husband. You reached a timid hand to gently squeeze his shoulder. “Stephen?” you asked quietly.
“This is close to where it happened.” Stephen’s voice sounded distant. He lifted a shaky finger up to the glass. It was pointed toward a strip of highway, curved in all directions and giving a nice view of the harbour below. “Right over that ridge. This is really the first time I’ve seen it since-”
Your hand instinctively launched itself toward your husband’s. The moment your fingers intertwined, you smiled at the sound of your wedding bands clinking together. That clink was enough to bring a small smile to Stephen’s lips. “Honey, I didn’t think-” you started to apologize profusely, “if I had known that this was where it- I should have remembered about the car-” Tears pricked at the corners of your eyes. 
You felt awful for putting Stephen through the memories again – especially when you knew what it was like to suffer just as much. When he returned from being Blipped, you were terrified to visit the rebuilt Avengers compound after the final battle. You tried to just return to the Sanctum, but it was clear Stephen didn’t want to spend a second not by your side. It was hard to fight the memories. Everywhere you went on that compound lot was a trigger for you. The landing strip where Tony told you Stephen was dead, the control room where Stephen’s picture had been hung in memorial. . . it had been a challenge to not break down, but you only managed to do it with the strength of the man beside you.
“Hey, hey it’s okay.” Almost instantly, Stephen’s entire demeanor changed. You felt his arms wrap around your form and he pressed a kiss to your temple. “It doesn’t bother me anymore. Do you know why?”
When you shook your head, a small sad smile toyed on his lips. “Because if I didn’t have that accident- if I didn’t lose use of my hands for God knows how long- I would never have come to Kamar-Taj. I never would have learned the Mystic Arts and I never would have found you, my true happiness.”
Overcome with emotion, you surged forward to capture Stephen’s lips with your own. Words could never express to him how much he meant to you, but you hoped your actions would suffice. A shaky hand reached up to rest against your cheek while the other pulled you closer by your waist. You held onto the grey cardigan shirt he was wearing like it was a lifeline. For just that moment, it was like the both of you were the only two people on Earth, determined to remind the other just how much love you shared. 
“Hey, I hate to break up the happy moment,” your young apprentice said as she poked her head in through the driver’s side, “but it’s getting late and I’m hungry. Can we stop for pizza?”
“Whatever you want, kid,” Stephen relented with a sigh, allowing his hand to clasp yours once more. “Just don’t eat too much at once again. You don’t need a stomachache.”
She nodded. “Can I drive us there?” 
“Don’t push your luck,” you reached to grab the keys from their place in her palm as Stephen created a portal to help you escape the Mirror Dimension. “Remember, my car, my rules.”
There was a snort from your husband as the young girl before you gave a small pout. You shook your head as you sighed. “Maybe we can let you drive back home. But for now,” you turned the keys in the ignition, “get in, losers. We’re getting pizza.”

Author's Note: So, is it that obvious I fell in love with Parent!Strange/Reader and America fics? I totally didn't base any of these interactions based off of my own driving experiences (absolutely not, nope, no siree). I just had this idea and thought it was adorable. Yes, I know America can multiverse jump, but hey-- multiverse jumping can't get you around a single earth's New York now, can it?
I have a few ideas for a couple of additional found family Strange, Reader, and America fics that I want to write...including a potential sequel to July 19th., if anyone's interesting. Make sure to leave a like, comment, and a cheeky reblog to help me out with the algorithm and let me know if you want to see more content like this on my blog. Until next time, little sparks <3
