Hey, I saw you did what Ewan's characters would be like with a girl daughter. And I admit that my curiosity was: What would each of Ewan's characters react to an unexpected pregnancy? Or announcement of a pregnancy

Or, opening new horizons, what would each person's relationship be like with their wife/girlfriend when they were pregnant? (if you want to use the reader for this part)

(I'm sorry if you're not accepting requests or something)

Hi! Thank you for the ask and it's truly okay and wonderful!

Headcanons: How would EwanVerse characters react to unexpected pregnancy?

Abraham

He hadn't even planned to stay with you, his only focus was on earning his place among the gypsies. Yes, he lied to himself about liking you, about being obsessed even, but at least he had managed to keep his emotions at bay. Until now. When he learns of your pregnancy, he gets mad, takes time for himself to think. Then he sees how miserable he had made you and his turmoil quickly turns into guilt. He can't stay away from you for long, let alone hurt you. You could be together after all, happy, and hell, that baby is his. What other beautiful manner to make his claim on you is there?

Aemond

War was raging, and he took you as his companion because he could, because as Prince Regent, no one will dare say a word against it. He had needs, impulses both of sinful nature and quiet affection, and you were meeting each of them perfectly. But when you don't bleed for two moons, he finally realises why he chose you, why he didn't 't care about being careful: he wanted you for himself, and having you round with his child would be the ultimate prize. You and the baby would be untouchable.

Billy Taylor

He feared it was going to happen. He had heard the stories so many times : people around with too much passion which caused unexpected things to happen ruined their lives, even reputations. It had scared him as much as elated him when he got to be with you, to touch you everywhere. And now, with the news of you pregnancy and amidst thinking of a way to tell his mother, he finds out that he would do it all again, thousand times over if life allowed it. He would be so very happy with your child.

Billy Washington

He wasn't supposed to have met with you again, or even to hook up. You, the ex he had a hard time forgetting about. But he guesses that once you harbour feelings for someone, it never really goes away. When you tell him, he is awestruck, not believing it, even asking you if it's his. It takes weeks for him to wrap his head around it, thinking what the hell he's going to do then he decides. Decides that he was delusional thinking he could live without you for a while, and that he won't let you go again. He never stopped loving you, and that baby will make everything right.

Ettore

You're just his neighbour, the only one who gets him, who sees him for what he is. He actually doesn't care about what people think of him, or what you think about him. Or maybe just a little. But he likes how you let him do things to you others wouldn't. When you tell him, he stays silent for a while, expressionless. "So?" he tells you, and when you slam the door in his face, he tries to convinced himself that he doesn't care. But in truth he can't stop thinking about it. About what it would feel like to have something as... precious with someone. How foreign it seems to him.

Genyen

He doesn't understand: you said you were fine with him being "just a friend", that you didn't want more, and it suited him fine. So why were you telling him that now? He can't do anything for you, he has nothing, even if he would like to. He would, truly, he finds himself thinking, provide for you if he could, for the baby. But it's the way you look at him with those shiny eyes and a hand on your belly that make him abandon any idea of disappearing on you. He'll stay, whatever you say he is to you.

Michael Gavey

He is euphoric. You're the girl of his dreams, and it seems surreal. He can give you everything you want, provide for you like you've never been cared for before, you don't need to be anxious about it all. He reassures you at once, already scheduling how you'll manage to graduate and have a beautiful baby at the same time, your baby. He won't ever let you go, and is already planning for the second one.

Osferth

You're the lady he can't believe he has, and when you announce that you're carrying his child, he can't help but feel guilty. He has promised himself never to sire a child, a bastard's bastard, and now he had brought shame on you. You would have been better without him, really, better with someone worthy of you. If only he had been more careful. What if you died in labour? What if the baby died? It's with those dark thoughts that he snaps out of it and decides that he will look after you until then. He will pray for you and the baby, be there for the both of you until life takes him.

Tom Bennett

He isn't even surprised, you're his girl after all. It's not like he had planned it, but it was bound to happen at some point. Deep down, Tom is a family man, always taking care of his folks, a fact he is finally brutally made aware of when you tell him the news and a warm feeling fills his chest. Now he just have to find a way to get you a ring. Maybe he'll have to steal it?

Will

It wasn't supposed to happen. You were supposed to get sick of him like everybody eventually did, and he was supposed to remain detached. But then here you are, saying you want to keep it and he allows himself to hope. Hope that maybe you truly love him, that maybe he'll finally have something of his own, something to share with you. Maybe he'll be able to let his guard down, like he always longed to. With this news, he felt like he wouldn't be hurt anymore.

I excluded Hoodie, Jack, Jason & Poacher.

Dynasty Of Flames

Aemond Targaryen x Targaryen-Royce Reader

Summary: Being born into the most respected and equally feared houses in the realm made people look up to you as if you were a god and the devil himself, in equal measure. People say that when a Targaryen is born, the gods flip a coin; and when news of the birth of Daemon’s firstborn- a girl, spread, people could only wait in anticipation to see which side of the coin faced up during her birth.

Aemond being completely oblivious about his own feelings. Y/N being the pride of her father Daemon <3

Warnings: Incest (duh), violence, blood/gore, swearing.

Part 1, part 2, Part 3, Part 4

Part 5

As the small crowd of nobles present at court gathered in the throne room, both sides of the royal family too made themselves present.

Aemond was timely as always, accompanied by his mother and his grandfather who served as hand of the king. Rhaenyra and Daemon were already present with Jace and a very nervous Luke. Helaena arrived a few moments later, arm linked with Y/N's. Aegon too walked in right after them.

Alicent smiled at the young princess when their eyes met. She watched as Y/N exchanged warm smiles with both Helaena and Aegon before she went to stand with her own family without bothering to so much as look at Aemond. She turned and saw that even Aemond refused to look at her.

Odd.

"Did something happen between Y/n and Aemond?" Alicent leaned in and whispered to Helaena. The both of them had been close in spite being apart for years and now upon her return, they seemed so distant.

"They had a bit of an argument last night, from what Y/N told" Helaena answered "but I do not know regarding what, she refused to speak much about it"

"I see" the queen nodded. She would need to talk to Aemond about this. With the arrival of Rhaenyra to court, Alicent had hoped to propose a match between Aemond and Y/N, to ensure the safety of her sons lives once Rhaenyrs stepped into power. She hadn’t discussed this with anyone yet apart from her father and husband, the king who seemed rather pleased with the idea.

With the King amiss, it was his hand, Otto, who was going to make the choice of who would inherit the Driftmark throne.

Rhaenyra along with Daemon, the boys and Y/N stood toward the left side from where Otto sat upon the throne while Alicent along with her children and Vaemond stood at the right.

Princess Rhaenys was standing exactly opposite the throne with Baela and Rhaena alongside her.

So far it seemed that the court was in favour of Vaemond and Luke was growing rather nervous about the whole situation. It just seemed so, one-sided.

He knew that denying his claim to the throne at Driftmark only weakened her mother's claim to the iron throne.

Vaemond spoke to all gathered of how he was of the same blood as Corlys, loosely implying that Rhaenyra's sons weren't. He went on about his argument until it was time for Rhaenyra to speak.

"If I am to grace this farce" she sighed, quiet obviously rather annoyed that this was even an issue when Luke was already named heir "I should like to start by reminding you all-"

The large doors of the court room were pushed open, the loud noise interrupting the princess as one of the guards announced the arrival of king Viserys.

The arrival of the King brought two starkly different reactions from his kin.

On one side, a sense of relief washed over. Y/N breathed out- content, knowing that all was not lost. She could see her mother's eyes widen with hope, a ghost of a smile dancing on her lips.

Meanwhile on her side of the room she'd noticed the utter disappointment and sudden concern that had begon to grow.

Aegon held back a sneer. He'd never hated his nephews. In fact, he got along with them far better than Aemond did. No, the thing that put him in a bad mood was his father practically getting up from his death bed to rush to the aid and defence of his daughter, again.

Where was this side of him when Aegon needed it?

"Father is here, yet again to defend his only child" Aegon scoffed under his breath to Aemond.

Where was this compassion when his brother had his eye taken from him?

There was no denying that he indeed neglected his fatherly duties toward them.

"I will sit the throne today" Viserys managed to find the strength to announce.

This was the first time, in perhaps years, Aemond had seen his father walk by himself though 'walking' was hardly the word for it. 'Hobbling' seemed more befitting. And it pained him that his father never made such efforts for him or his siblings even when he was well.

There was a mask of gold hiding half of his face, that Rhaenyra had not seen him without ever since her arrival to court.

The King continued his slow advance to the throne, momentarily halting when he'd reached the few steps to catch his breath and paused to wheeze. His skin was sickly pale, almost as if he was a walking corpse.

Daemon left his wife's side to rush to his brother's aid. A king's guard too, took a step to assist the King.

"I am fine" he waved the guard off just as his crown fell to the ground with a clatter. Daemon was the one to retrieve it.

"I said I'm fine" he repeated, thinking it was the guard yet again until he heard his brother speak.

"Come on" he encouraged.

Lord Hightower went to his daughter's side as Daemon held the king's arm to help him to the throne. Once he was sat, he placed the crown back on his head before making his way back to Rhaenyra.

"I must.. admit.. my confusion" the king panted "I do not understand why petitions are being heard over a settled succession"

The King scanned the faces of his family that were both split and standing on two sides of the room.

"The only one present... who might offer keener insight into Lord Corlys's wishes is the Princess Rhaenys" he turned to his cousin.

The older woman smiled at his acknowledgement.

"Indeed, Your Grace" she took a step forward, appreciative of her cousin wishing to hear her, something the others didn't bother to do "It was ever my husband's will that Driftmark pass through Ser Laenor to his trueborn son Lucerys Velaryon. His mind never changed. Nor did my support of him"

"As a matter of fact" She continued "the Princess Rhaenyra has just informed me of her desire to marry her sons Jace and Luke to Lord Corlys's granddaughters, Baela and Rhaena, a proposal to which I heartily agree"

The twins exchanged smiles with the boys upon hearing this. Of course they would be joyous, Jace and Luke were fine young gentlemen who any woman would be lucky to be married to.

Y/N smiled too, quiet happy that her darling younger sisters were now betrothed; and to two sweethearts that she knew would treat them well.

The King leaned back slowly "Well, the matter is settled; Again"

Queen Alicent sighed, quite upset at the king for displaying his partiality yet again toward his daughter and her children.

"I hereby reaffirm Prince Lucerys of House Velaryon as heir to Driftmark, the Driftwood Throne, and the next Lord of the Tides"

Lucerys at last let out that breath and smiled as he and his family both shared a moment of pure relief. Y/N took his hand in her's offering a gentle squeeze, a gesture that Aemond noticed and subtly scoffed at.

How dare she take that bastard's hand in hers, he thought, the very same hand that took my eye.

Vaemond, who stood to Princess Rhaenys' left, stepped forward as she went back to the twins.

"You break law and centuries of tradition to install your daughter as heir" he said "Yet you dare tell me who deserves to inherit the name Velaryon? No. I will not allow it"

"Allow it?" the king repeated, almost surprised at the nerve "Do not forget yourself, Vaemond. I am the king and you are no more than the second son"

Something inside Vaemond snapped upon hearing those words. As if he needed to be reminded that whatever it is he was fighting for, was never his to begin with.

"That!" he shouted as his finger was pointed at Luke "Is no true Velaryon, and certainly no nephew of mine"

"Go to your chambers" Rhaenyra placed her hand on Luke's shoulder as she moved to stand before him protectively whilst she spoke to Vaemond "you have said enough!"

"I would advise you to choose your words carefully" Y/N spoke, gaining the attention of everyone present "prince Lucerys is lord of Driftmark and thus becomes your superior. Do not overstep your boundaries"

Jace smirked; Y/N had taken their side, just as she promised

"With all due respect, I do not need a warning uttered from the lips of a dragonling. Regardless of her title or relation to him" Vaemond pointed at Luke as he smiled at her but there was nothing warm about it. Daemon clenched his jaw as soon as he heard the tone used to address his daughter, who he had indirectly called a child.

"Se istin epagon ao naejot urnēbagon skorkydoso ao ȳdragon naejot bisa 'zaldrīzes-rūs' qilōni ao vestragon naejot nārhēdegon iksis iā dārilaros" Y/N sneered, not taking kindly to even an ounce of that disrespectful tone and Daemon cast a momentary look of pride at her "iksin se va moriot kessa sagon eglikta than ao"

"Furthermore I must urge you to watch how you speak to this 'dragonling' who you seem to forget is a princess. I am, and always will be higher than you in station"

Aemond had his gaze locked on Y/N and he grinned ever so slightly when she put Vaemond in his place. Even Aegon seemed amused.

Y/N felt Luke's hand squeeze her's every so slightly, indicating that he was growing a touch nervous again.

Vaemond did not like the public reminder that he was merely a lord in comparison to her; It stung even more when she pointed it out in their language. With his pride now hurt, the turned to speak to the King.

"You may run your house as you see fit but you will not decide the future of mine" Vaemond spoke aloud so that the entire assembly might hear him "My house survived the Doom and a thousand tribulations besides and gods be damned, I will not see it ended on the account of this.."

He paused as his gaze lingered on Rhaenyra.

Prince Daemon watched his face twitch "Say it" he challenged, menacingly.

A deadly silence fell like a blanket over them all before Vaemond's control snapped as he roared

"Her children... are bastards!"

Y/N's eyes widened and her mouth was partially agape at his disrespectful annunciation of her half-brothers' legitimacy. Across the room, even Aegon and Helaena stood shocked and Aemond immediately turned to look at Y/N, as if to say 'don’t say a word, let the king handle this'. Alicent and Otto exchanged nervous glances.

Vaemond was getting a little too bold, even for the liking of the Greens.

"And she" Vaemond then looked at Rhaenyra, dead in the eyes "is a whore"

Gasps arose from the people present, at how freely Vaemond threw insults.

This time, Y/N pushed past Luke, throwing her mannerisms out the window.

"You fucking-" Baela and Rhaena were quick to rush to their sister's side and hold her back, Jace assisting them.

Even the king was just as enraged as she was. His patience had finally faded away.

"I will have your tongue for that!" He drew his dagger, about to do the gruesome task himself.

Vaemond simply smirked in defiance as a momentary sense of satisfaction washed over him.

But he didn't manage to bask in it for long.

Within a matter of a few seconds, Daemon was right behind him with his sword unsheathed. With one swing of the blade, Vaemond's fame crumbled down to the ground; his head served in half right above his upper lip.

Helaena immediately looked away as Aegon's mouth hung open. Even Aemond seemed startled by this act of brutality. Jace protectively pushed the girls behind him, not wanted them to see the gory mess on the floor.

"He can keep his tongue" Daemon sneered as he stood over what remained of the man who dared to insult his family.

After everyone left that chaotic mess of a hearing, Alicent called for Aemond to talk about what had happened between him and Y/N.

"I hear you and princess Y/N got into a bit of an argument" she crossed her arms and for a moment she felt like Aemond was once again nine years of age and she was scolding him for running off into the dragon pits alone "she's only been here a day, I'm surprised after years of being apart you both managed a conflict after being reunited"

"It wasn’t my intention to make her cross with me" Aemond sighed "I said some words that were phrased poorly"

"May I ask what it is you told her?" his mother asked.

"I told her about marriage being a duty, a duty that highborns like ourselves must abide by" Aemond stared off into the distance as he mentally recalled the events of the night before. How she was so happy to meet him in that library even know she knew that he hadn’t planned it. How he tried to assist her with that book she wanted, how in the process of doing so he had entrapped her between himself and the shelves, how his torso was pressed against her- stop "I might’ve told her that it was expected of us to be wed and then I unintentionally made it sound like I was willing to take her as my wife solely out of obligation"

Alicent was quite surprised at his honesty. Aemond was always truthful to her but she was rather taken by surprise when he so casually admitted that he had spoken to Y/N regarding marriage, something that had never been discussed with him nor with Y/N's family.

"Unintentionally, you say" the queen hummed "Would it be safe to assume that if a choice was given to you, you would choose to marry her?"

"I have known Y/N ever since we were able to walk. She is a princess of house Targaryen, a girl closer to the gods than to men" he promptly answered with a firm tone "a person such as herself deserves nothing less than someone who is in equal measure a dragon like herself, someone who will keep the blood of old Valyria pure within the veins of the future generations"

"Aemond I appreciate the deep thought you've given to the succession of the house and the family name but that is not what I asked you" she tenderly spoke, trying to hold back a chuckle at her son's diplomatic response "do you want her? Not as a prince, not as a Targaryen but as a boy who is once again reacquainted with his childhood companion. As someone who cares about her, not the bloodlines of your offspring; someone who will love"

Alicent did not have a happy marriage, this was no secret to her children. And because of how miserable her life was, she did not wish the same to be repeated with her children. She had already tried to 'help' with that when she wedded Aegon and Helaena and it turned out to be quite a fail. So now that her darling boy Aemond was of age, she wanted him to have a happy married life. She knew Y/N ever since she was a babe and the princess was an absolute joy to have around. When the children were younger, it seemed to her that Aemond had fancied her; but over the years, Aemond kept telling her that she was only his friend and nothing more.

Now that Y/N too was of age and would soon look for a suitable partner, she hoped that the both of them would find some sort of spark. Aemond quite obviously liked the idea of wedding her, she just wanted to further ensure he wasn’t saying it simply to fulfil some 'duty'.

Aemond's expression softened.

Did he love her? Perhaps not yet.

Did he fancy her? Eh.

Would he be alright seeing her wed someone else? No.

They had been attached at the hip since childhood. He was hers and she was his. That was how things always were, irrespective of feelings like 'love'.

So, did he want her? Yes.

"I do want her. Besides, love is not really a necessity for a marriage pact" Aemond simply stated, a response to his mother's last statement "Love is the end of duty"

"Well in this case," Alicent smiled "loving her first, is your duty"

Tom Bennett NSFW Alphabet

A= Aftercare (what they’re like after the act)

Lights up a ciggy and will happily pass it back and forth with his partner, if they're willing to partake.

B= Body part (favorite body part their own or their lovers)

There's not a single part of Tom's body he doesn't love. He's a cocky little shit and knows he's hot stuff.

For this partner it's all about the tits and legs. He loves pawing at their chest while kissing and the sight of long legs in a skirt has him pitching a tent.

C= Cum (anything that has to do with it)

Straight into the condom. He's not completely irresponsible.

D= Dirty secret (Pretty self explanatory)

Not as experienced as he likes to make out he is. Has only gone all the way once before, the rest have all been drunken fumbles that have fizzled before they've gone anywhere.

E= Experience (do they know what they’re doing)

Not really, but he's a fake it till you make it kinda guy.

F= Favorite position

Cowgirl. It allows him to mask some of his inexperience and he enjoys watching his partner's tits bounce while looking up at them with that cocky smirk of his.

G= Goofy (how serious are they)

He'll definitely make crass puns during foreplay and can enjoy a giggle during the act. He's not totally serious about it.

H= Hair (grooming habits)

Doesn't manscape, but isn't especially hairy so it doesn't matter.

I= Intimacy (in the moment romantic or rough/dirty)

Rough and dirty to begin with, as he's just excited to find someone who won't be shy about going all the way. As his feelings develop he'll become slower and more romantic about it.

J= Jack off (do they masturbate and how often)

A sneaky one in the bathroom once a day - sharing a room with his sister limits his options for doing this, so he doesn't do it often and can't really take his time with it.

K= Kink (kinks what they like possibly unusual)

Quickly discovers he has a praise kink, but he enjoys dishing it out. As he gets comfortable, his partner can expect things like "so wet for me, good girl", "can't believe how tight you are" and "just like that, darlin', takin' me so well" to come tumbling out of his mouth.

L= Location (where they like to get it on)

Honestly, Tom would prefer a bed, but his living situation doesn't allow for that. Backs of cars, down alleyways and secluded outdoor areas are where he'll be getting down and dirty.

M= Motivation (things that makes them tick/turn ons)

Long legs in short skirts. When his partner bats back his sarcastic comments and cheeky remarks with ones of their own. Heated arguments. When his partner looks up at him through their lashes.

N= No (turnoffs or absolutely won’t do)

Not into degradation, choking or anything that can be perceived as harmful to his partner - in his mind, only a scumbag would lay hands on a woman like that.

O= Oral (receiving or giving and how skillful they are)

Big into receiving. Quite lazy about giving, but it comes from a lack of experience. If his partner coaches him through it he'll do it every once in a while.

P= Pace (how fast they are and how long they last in bed)

Hard and fast and doesn't last for very long, due to both inexperience and risk of being caught. This improves over time once his stamina improves and he finds a regular shagging spot for him and his beau.

Q= Quickie (do they prefer fast and hard)

All sex with Tom is quickies. He'd love to take his time, but that's not an option.

R= Risk (do they like to try new things)

As long as his partner is leading the way then yes.

S= Stamina (how many times they can go and how long each round lasts)

Can do a few times in a night, but each one won't last longer than a few minutes.

T= Toys (are they game for using sex toys on themselves or lovers)

"You've got me, what do you need that for?"

U= Unfair (how do they tease or do they enjoy suspense themselves)

Loves to tease and be teased in return, but can only handle so much without cumming in his pants.

V= Volume (are they loud, what sounds, and do they talk)

Lots of dirty talk and lets slip the occasional filthy sounding moan.

W= Wild card (random sincannon of any sort)

Will absolutely keep a pair of his partner's knickers as a souvenir - keeps them stashed in his pillow case and gives them a little sniff if it's been a few days since he's seen them.

X= X-ray (what’s down below in dem pants)

Decent - 6.5 inches, more than enough to satisfy, with a slight curve that means his cockhead has no choice but to drag across his partner's g-spot when he's hittin' it.

Y= Yearning (sexdrive level)

Insanely high.

Z= Zzzz (do they sleep after if so how quickly after)

Likes to have a cigarette afterwards and engage in playful pillow talk, so won't fall asleep straight away.

priest or pleasure?

Until HoTD s2, I’m waiting for my few crumbs of World on Fire and in denial of what happened to such a sweet priest character

Fluff with Osferth is sweet and comforting, gentle touches, soft kisses, fleeting glances and warm intimacy, a confession that leaves his heart hammering when you reciprocate, blushing at your forwardness but getting used to as time passes, long talks under the stars, protective to each other as long as your days can allow it.

fluff includes flirting with the other until they break, Tom taking you around town at home, “slight of hand” gifts from him that you have your eye(s) on, cheeky nicknames and inside jokes, sweet kisses that can easily turn passionate, stealing his jumpers when it’s cold (or maybe he’ll just offer his arms or other ways to stay warm 😉)

Tom Bennett x royal!reader headcanons

Request: Reader who's really in love with him to the point of questioning if she's good for him & has ties to English aristocracy.

A/N: Not connected to my other series. Based on a request!

Tom met her as another individual seeking a way out of France. He didn't know of her identity or status until much later in the trip, only that Y/N sought out a safe route home as he did.

He initially thought she was another French woman until he heard her English accent. Although it was central to London. This would've made him spit something about Manchester and his detest for posh Londoners, if not for the woman's beauty and attitude. She held herself high and had this tenacity - a bite to her words that spoke largely of her personality.

From thereonward, the two grew closer on their shared English background, sticking together for the most part until they arrived at the border. This became apparent when they had to identify themselves and her relations to a certain Windsor House became apparent.

Tom wasn't abhorred or angry to be exact, he was more disappointed that she lied about her identity. Although, it became apparent to him much later on the boat ride back that she was merely doing what she had to do to survive.

After that followed an apology and then they were really off onto another path. She found themselves fawning over different parts. The shine of his hair in the sunlight. The glint of mischief in his eyes when he wore that smirk. He was no different in finding everything about her enthralling. She was the picture of grace and poise, as well as a sarcastic side to test him.

Their relationship is filled with sarcastic retorts and lots of banter!! Tom has found his match. Even in the most stressful situations, she finds a way to bring him back to the moment. They kept each other from falling to their nerves and the fear lingering over their heads. Lingering touches and glances turned to hand holding. Making sure the other is okay and offering comfort in tough moments.

He was a spitfire with ample fuel. Hatred towards the war, authority, and a load of abandonment issues and disappointing others. Tom hid these feelings of helplessness to his nature beneath the facade of confidence, his snark and flirtatious antics making up for the insecurities buried beneath the surface.

She...she was his equal, in a sense. From the first moment, she had returned his snark with equal vigour, and put Tom in his place without prompt. She was graceful, resourceful and quick thinking. The woman was respectful and kind, caring and the right amount of sarcasm to meet Tom's outrageous and loud personality.

No matter his tendency to get into trouble and start fights without prompt. She was quick in learning his tells and desire toward mayhem, taming him from the get go. Y/N made sure of that, pulling him away from the men he had pushed too far; tucking herself into his side while walking along a dark street with shift figures around; bringing his head back to earth when he drifted too far into the dark depths of his mind.

Their first kiss and realisation was a fixed close proximity where Y/N found herself staring into those oh-so blue eyes. She held her breath and lost herself in the moment where he pressed his lips to hers, and her head was spinning. One hand was on her waist, and the other grasping her jaw. To be kissed like this-

From there onward, it was a blissful relationship between the two. The rush of being close to another, the warmth of a shared bed; the comfort of a close body. Reassurance that everything would be okay even in the darkest of times.

The real problem began when she found herself questioning herself. She fell in love so deeply and quickly, Y/N questioned if she was good for Tom. They, of course, came from different upbringings and experiences. It was one of the differences between them that they managed to bridge a gap. And yet...she found herself overthinking about all of the happiness someone else could bring him.

Someone who could see him at any time of day, anywhere they wanted. A person who wasn't followed by security details and people watching their every move. Someone who didn't have most of their life planned out for them since the day they were born. A person without guilt in holding their love back from declaring their relationship. She pined for that type of relationship without paying the price of privacy. To love him in every way possible would be what he deserved. That is what she saw in him.

One day, Tom found her mulling over these thoughts alone, holding the papers with pictures of her and supposed bachelors. They talked it out and she confessed her thoughts. He would be much happier with someone who could completely be with him. In their relationship, they were reclused to closed doors - just the two of them. It was a matter of secret meetings and brief encounters. How could they truly be happy? How could he be happy?

Tom dismissed each of these with his logic immediately. He didn't care for extravagance or showing off their relationship. He loves her and the relationship they have. Having it in private or public, no matter - all he cares about is her and having her in any way he can. He tells her how eternally grateful he is to be know her; to love her; to eventually wed her.

Right about then was when she flushed and the overactive thoughts dimmed at the half lidded glance her way. The stare that enveloped all of the love and adoration she held for him. The knowing look that meant he understood exactly how she felt and desired nothing more than her.

Detective Agency HC: Request from @lynnbeth5172

Moodboard made by me.

AU with Tom Bennett and OC Ada Stalker

Meeting & Getting the Job -

Ada and Tom meet after he returns from the Navy.

He's looking for a job and sees an ad in the paper for an assistant at a private detective firm.

He applies, and his work in the Navy is what gets him the job.

As a detective -

Tom doesn't take things seriously straight away, and Ada is frustrated.

He tries lighten the mood with jokes and quips.

Sometimes his mouth gets him in trouble or endangers a case.

Angst/Tragedy -

On one case, the suspect is being pursued and Ada finds herself trapped and in danger.

Tom realises things are serious and Ada could seriously die if he doesnt do something.

He hears her shouting for help, and he begins finding a way into the room she's trapped in.

Breaking down the door to get to her, calling her name while he moves fallen furniture out of the way to get to her.

Relationship Begins -

After the case, Tom asks Ada to go out, even just for dinner or a walk.

He asks her so sweetly, it throws her off, and she finds herself saying yes.

One date becomes two dates, those dates slowly become a relationship.

In a Relationship -

Tom is extremely protective of her, even though he knows she's more than capable of handling herself.

Anyone so much as looks at her the wrong way and he's ready to argue.

But Ada shuts him down, they don't need him fighting.

Their relationship is full of his ability to constantly get in trouble (she'll say she hates it, but she doesn't) and her managing to somehow keep him out of trouble.

Perfectly matched.

Crumbs Asks:

You have to smell the breath of every Ewanverse character - stick your nose right in their gob and take a ten second huff. Rank from worst to best smelling and describe what they smell like.

This is so unhinged and I had so much fun thinking about this, omg. But this was so hard and I'm not sure if I completely nailed it!

Okay, here goes:

Billy Washington - He's barely taking care of himself and probably brushes once a week when he's at his lowest, if that. Layered on top of bad breath is the smell of Stella Artois or whatever other beer he's drinking. Do not get in his car with him when the windows are all rolled up because his breath will burn your nose hairs off.

Jack - He's a teenager with no one to really remind him about taking care of oral hygiene, so it wouldn't surprise me if he doesn't brush regularly. No particular smell. Just bad breath.

Will - Sorry Will girlies, but this boy isn't brushing his teeth regularly so he gets pretty rank. Gets tea breath SO BADLY. Plus, his breath probably smells like yesterday's fish and chips.

Genyen - This man would probably have okay breath when he's living at the monastery because Jinba makes him brush his teeth after he hotboxes the monks with his awful breath one time. But when he's off on his own, all bets are off. Stale, nasty breath with a hint of whatever he's eaten for his most recent meal.

Michael - We all know this man's breath smells like Crunchie bars. I'm on the fence about whether he brushes regularly or if he's smelly nerd boy. Probably doesn't make brushing a priority, though, since there are more important things to do. Or he just forgets since his brain is focused on other things. Crunchies are his mints, lol.

Osferth - I can see Osferth adopting actual medieval dentistry methods like cleaning his teeth with a cloth and using whatever herbs he has on hand to make his breath smell better. Has the ability to keep his mouth somewhat clean and I can see him taking the time to do so. Cleanliness is next to godliness, after all! But since he's on the go with the rest of the boys, his breath might not be the best all the time. Probably has meaty burps.

Abraham - Beer or ale breath, probably with bonus cigarette smell. But you still can't tell me that this young man doesn't take care of his oral hygiene, based on how primped he is. He has to smell nice for flirting with his ~lady. Might have a mint every now and then, but don't count on it.

Aemond - Similar to Osferth, actually. Aemond keeps himself very clean and that extends to his oral hygiene. He's using similar medieval oral hygiene methods as our baby monk, with things like mint, cinnamon, or rosemary to give his breath a nice smell. He's a prince and he smells good. Might have wine breath every now and then, but who's complaining?

Tom Bennett - Tom lives in a time period where he has access to a toothbrush and toothpaste. He probably brushes regularly (I'm being biased because he's hoosband, hehe), although he smokes like a chimney and drinks a fair amount of beer. But I'm stealing the headcanon that he's a spearmint guy so he has fresh breath a lot of the time.

Ettore - The only time you'll find this man near the top of any list, lol. He lives on a prison ship with Dibs, who definitely makes sure that all of the inmates are clean and their teeth are well brushed. And there's not much that he can eat or drink that would give him bad breath. He probably smells kind of minty or just... clean.

Billy Taylor - This boy's breath is SO FRESH. He never goes a day without brushing twice (his mom wouldn't let him + he works at a fancy hotel and has to smell nice) so his breath is pretty good! Probably eats mints to keep his breath fresh during the day, especially if one of the managers notices that it's going stale.

actor tom bennett x south-east asian chinese actress stem girlie who is doing her phd headcanon. this is inspired from the brazil event. instead of brazil, the studio sent them to reader's birth country, which is in south-east asia, to promote the show. the reader gets to flex her linguistic skills in her birth country, which led the studio to have an increase in viewership.

tom bennett: *talks about his character and his approach as an actor. cockily and openly flirts on reader on stage through witty banter. praises her work in both stem and acting that are both applied in the show. openly admires her ability to speak multiple languages. openly admires her comparison between acting and music and her defence why the stem field needs creativity, how the tech field is arguably art as well and how hard she had to fight to keep all of these careers. openly admires how she calls out the condescending attitudes of her fellow academics towards the creative field and for labelling her art career as a "little hobby". openly admires her nerdiness of her listing the similarities between HOTD and Ancient Chinese history and the parallels between the show they are in and the political chinese dramas. laughs at her reason on why she decided to join the show, which is because it reminds her of the political cdramas she loves so much. loving the way her eyes lit up whenever she talks about her country's food and traditional dresses. praises how beautiful she looks with her modernised traditional dress. praises her classical pianist and violin skills that she used for the show. praises her beautiful singing voice that was used for the soundtracks of the show. refer to this video to how i imagine her singing voice: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DMmVgNRh-aM *

reader: sorry for rambling, guys! i just turned this into a masterclass for music, tech and history!

tom bennett: no worries, love! it's cute! and adorable! 😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉😉

audience: *notices the way he looks at her* awwwwwwww! 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕💕

host: are you two dating? is the kdrama coming out?

reader: *laughing* nahhhh! we are colleagues. he doesn't like me that way. and the kdrama is NEVER coming out, guys.

host: uhhhhhh, he does like you.

reader: *laughs* no he doesn't!

host: yes he does!

audience: yes he does!

the entire goddamned world: yes he does! 🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍🌍😯😯😯😯😯😯😯😯😯😯😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑😑

Tom joining Aemond in trying to convince the reader that they like her

She doesn't believe it one bit, JUST ACCEPT IT

HAHSHAHD

omg imagine a love triangle between tom, reader and aemond 😳

i'm sorry im obsessed with older shelby headcanons, like geriatric Eva being a firm Diana stan, slighting Cowmilla and just the monarchy in general.

Or just like how there family is immortalized and percieved through history. Where their company may be now. Shelby descendants dominating every industry.

A funny meta thing where a dramatization of the Shelby family origins shoots and people look at the historical figures and are like "damnnnnnnn that's a zaddy right there"

or like Eva and Thomas just not getting with the times and modern technology, "you can't just kill people like you use to these days"

I hope you enjoy 😉

Gif by @quelmarth

Eva would be wondering why these two ladies are fighting over Charles the Turd when they could just find better men or better yet get together.

She would be at each women's weddings(and Camilla's it would be a sympathies greeting card cuz she's dead by then) be like, seriously? This guy is who you want? Take my grandson, Tom Jr, he's a much better guy, smaller ears too.

Tommy lives well into his 90s because Eva doesn't want him to die way earlier than her

He still remains a very private person and goes full cryptid once he retires from politics

Charlie grows up to be a very liberal politician with a personal feud with Margaret Thatcher, outlives her so he can piss on her grave

He's also Winston Churchill's son in law by his daughter, Mary (who contrary to irl mary Churchill doesn't become a conservative)

Has an I love my gay sister(Diane who is bi) t shirt the moment they come into the market

Diane ends up a singer-actress-buisnesswoman-philanthropist who does a little bit of everything and yet no one is really sure what she does.

Diane also lives very modestly for someone with a lot of money

Also is openly bi but no one believes her

She marries Tom Bennett from World on Fire and has two or three kids

Her eldest son, Thomas Jr, is Eva's favorite grandkid

Gabe becomes a spy/assassin and eventually marries Luca’s only daughter and pretends to be working for the company abroad when really no one knows where he is

Some speculate he died as a teenager as no records or photographs exist of him past 16

They all show up at Arrow House on every major holiday come hell or high water

Eva wrote her memoirs but marketed it as fiction

Everyone has theories about what's true and what's not

Florence marries Andrew Roberts JR (son of Billy Kimber’s accountant) who she's callee her boyfriend since they were six

Florence may or may not have had a romantic relationship with Princess Margaret on the side as both were playmates and the same age

There are several adaptations of Eva's memoirs and what little they have on The Shelbys

There are Sucession style series, documentaries and docu-series and a fuck ton of tell all books about them done the second they die (Tommy in the late 1980s and Eva in 2000 at the age of 104)

Eva is nearly always played by Salma Hayek or Penelope Cruz

Tommy is played by Jason Statham or Leonardo Dicaprio

Eva is also a Catholic Saint who gets decanonized once it is known she was an aetheist

Hi, would you be willing to do any more Headcanons with Ewan's characters?

I thought about something like this, how each of Ewan's characters would react and act if he (the character) really liked the reader (I mean on a level of suffering for love), but the reader didn't reciprocate those feelings.

Hi anon! Of course, here we go:

Unreciprocated Love reaction - Ewanverse Headcanons

Abraham:

He had set his eyes on you, it would be easy winning you over. But he hadn't expected the reader to refuse him, and he hadn't expected his infatuation to develop into extreme fixation. Suddenly when you're not around, he needs to know where you are, what you’re doing, with who. He hates not knowing. You don’t like him? Then maybe he’ll make you see that he is the only one for you.

Aemond:

He does not often fall in love, and he doesn't accept failure, so he must be certain his feelings are reciprocated. When it's clear it's not, he bids his time, denies his enragement to the world and waits for you to have no choice but to fall in his arms. You will eventually, he is sure of it, he had never stepped down to a challenge, and you're the greatest of them all, he needs to have you.

Billy Taylor:

Is sullen for months. It had taken so much time for him to gather the courage to confess, to tell you how much he cares about you. And it was all for disappointment. He doesn’t think his young heart can take it, and he doesn’t think it will ever heal either. Starts to pick up things you leave behind to collect them, because it reminds him of you.

Billy Washington:

Absolutely crushed. But he isn't even surprised, he never had any luck in life, so having someone like you love him back would have been too good to be true. He tells himself he will be fine, get over it, but it doesn’t. It hurts when he learns you’ve gone out with one of his friends two days after he confessed and it hurts more that he has to see you everyday. He starts to be mean to his friend, real mean and soon he is afraid he’ll lose it in front of you. He can’t stand it.

Ettore:

He doesn’t really understand the feeling, this sensation in his stomach when he looks at you but he knows he wants more. He has to obey his body, because it feels so good, and refusal is not an option. He won’t get angry, he won’t be violent, but he will stalk, and he will watch. At first. Then it’s just you and your incessant habit to ignore him and he can’t take it anymore. He has to do something about it. He’s just not sure you’ll like it.

Genyen:

He knows his flirting technique isn’t perfect, but he at least expected something, some semblance of interest. Not indifference on your part and then complete avoidance. He admits that hooking up with one of their friends out of spite was not one his smartest moves, but at least he discovered from the jealous expression on your face that you might care after all. He’ll make you regret it at some level.

Michael Gavey:

He knows there is no chance you like him back, no chance you would even consider it. But he can't help but ask one day. He had to, it drove him crazy: how he thinks about you every single hour of the day as well as during his waking hours at night, how every time he sees you he has a cold sweat. It falters his focus far more than he allows himself to, and he has to do something about it. But the rejection hurt more than any others, and now he just has to try and not being a fucking creep about you until he finished uni. Easier said than done.

Osferth:

He doesn’t even know what to answer to Finan and Sithric when they ask him why he is sad all the time. How could he admit that it’s because he had suffered the greatest heartbreak of his life? How can he explain that he doesn’t feel like he couldn't live happily if he does not see you everyday, get to be close to you, talk to you. He wishes he could forget you ever existed. Maybe God will grant him this wish. But it's just a silly hope, and he is cursed to watch you from afar.

Tom Bennett:

Pretend he would get over it soon. Tells himself that you were "too good" for him anyway. But then time passes and he doesn't feel like this for anyone else but you, so he starts to unconsciously live his life around you. He thinks he will grow out of it eventually, but it doesn't. The disappointment makes him crave for what he would have had if he was with you, but despite the frustration he doesn't let it bring him down. Tom Bennett is never discouraged after all, and he will continue being his charming self with you whenever he can.

Will:

He tries. He really tries to let go and move on but knowing you don't feel the same is gnawing at him. Eventually he starts to feel angry, all the time and he blames you first, then himself. You were so nice to him, and now you act cold and distant. Soon there is only one thought in his head: he has to fix it.

Dynasty of Flames

Aemond Targaryen x Targaryen-Royce Reader

Aemond slowly, and I mean SLOWLY, letting his guard down

Warnings: Incest (duh)

Part 1, part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5

Part 6

Y/N heaved a sigh of relief once she was within the comfort of her quarters after the hearing. She closed her eyes for a moment to process everything that had happened. How Luke almost lost his claim, how she argued back with Vaemond, how he insulted the boys, when he publicly insulted the princess Rhaenyra, how Daemon took his head for it.

She was terrified at first; not by the sight of Vaemond's disembodied figure crumpled on the floor but for what might happen to her father for killing a lord in the presence of the king and other nobles.

Daemon was not charged with anything and was let off the hook without a single consequence of his impulsive decision.

The princess walked to her bed and sank into the soft mattress and covers, taking a moment to close her eyes. After a few moments she turned toward the little table by her bed and stretched out her hand to grab the letter she had noticed was passed from under the foot of her door when she'd woken up. She was in a hurry in the morning to make it to the throne room on time so she hadn’t read the letter at the time.

She curiously eyed the seal that held the parchment shut. It was a blue-coloured wax seal that had the symbol of a dragon wing. The princess carefully pried apart the paper so that she might read the note and at first glance, she immediately knew who it was from.

It wasn't the language that was used, but the handwriting that gave it away. It was his handwriting. Y/N was a bit confused as to what he had written and why he felt that it was necessary to pen it down instead of just telling her: she was quite literally only a few steps away from him. But then again, she doubted after last night's conversation he would want to talk in person; she had of course stormed off from him.

Her eyes skimmed over the words and she, subconsciously, began to read the note in his voice.

"Ñuha dōna Y/N, nyke jaelagon naejot gīda skoros mirre īlon ȳdragotan nūmāzma mōrī bantis. Iksan vaoreznuni syt se mijegindita ñuhoso nyke dīnagon ezīmagon udra skoros iksin isse ñuha bartos, nyke gōntan daor nūmāzma naejot vēdros ao."

"My sweet Y/N, I wish to clear whatever we talked about last night. I apologise for the poor choice of words and an even poorer attempt at wording my thoughts, it was not my intention to offend you."

Y/N continued to read and then immediately sat up as she read aloud the latter part of the letter, wincing inwardly.

"Kesan sagon olvie biare naejot rhaenagon isse se Godswood gō īlon bartos naejot se dēmalion tistālion, se kessa olvie vaoresagon naejot ȳdragon isse issaros"

"If we could meet in the Godswood before the hearing, I would be most appreciative and would much prefer to talk in person"

The girl slowly folded the paper and heaved a sigh, now wishing she had read the letter on the morrow. She quickly put the letter under her pillow and stood up from the bed, wasting no time in pushing open her doors to go find Aemond. Y/N was a bit hesitant as she neared his chambers, especially after she had ignored him all morning and unintentionally left him to await her arrival at the Godswood.

But no matter, she would be honest and tell him that she hadn’t read the letter until, well, now.

She'd only knocked thrice before she heard the sound of footsteps, indicating that whoever was in there was getting closer to the door.

As soon as the heavy wooden door swung inward to open, Aemond's lips parted ever so slightly when he took notice of who was awaiting him on the other side of the door. Y/N was the last person he was expecting.

"Princess" he greeted curtly "lost your way perhaps?"

"I know my way around the keep quite perfectly thankyou" the girl briskly responded which made Aemond chuckle "I got your note, though I could not find time to read it in the early hours of the morrow. I only just broke the seal and discovered your wish to see me in the Godswood"

Aemond's expression softened.

"Well, nice to know you did not intentionally leave me awaiting your arrival all morning" his piercing gaze never wavered and he was rather impressed by how unfazed she was by it "I was on my way to the dragon pits. After such an eventful morning, I wish to go for a short flight around the city"

"Ah" Y/N simply smiled. She too used flying as an escape from the world sometimes; riding on dragon back was rather therapeutic "I shall leave you be then my pr-

"Would you care to join me?" he quickly asked before he could change his mind "after all, you do owe me the pleasure of your company after you had me wait for you all morning"

"Unintentionally"

"Unintentionally" Aemond repeated. Word of the day, he thought.

Y/N hadn’t informed her family of her plans with Aemond. Luke was reaffirmed as Lord of the tides and she wanted them to joyously celebrate it instead of ruining their day by announcing that she was going to spend her time with someone they all seemed to dispise.

Y/N was a bit hesitant at first, to make herself seated in the sadle atop Vhagar. The dragon was known to be quite hot-tempered and hostile but Aemond assured her that Vhagar wouldn’t hurt her at all if it was accompanied by him. So, Y/N just took his word for it and climbed into the saddle, Aemond following soon after and seating himself behind her. He snaked his arms around her waist to grab ahold the reigns that would allow for him to control the large beast.

"You aren’t afraid, are you?" he asked as he leaned closer, his lips brushing against the shell of Y/N's ear "of Vhagar?"

"Do you wish for me to be?" she asked with a smirk.

"You'd be a fool not to" he grinned as Vhagar stretched her long, leathery wings.

"Are you afraid, my prince?" Y/N asked, gripping the saddle as she felt the Dragon jolt violently, signalling that she was getting ready to take flight.

"I am not" he responded.

"Then I suppose that makes us both fools" Y/N turned so that she might steal a glance at him and that resulted in their noses bumping. Aemond leaned away at first, not expecting to have her face merely inches away from his and Y/N grinned at this before turning around just as Aemond asked for Vhagar to take to the skies.

"Soves, Vhagar"

Y/N closed her eyes as she basked in the familiar sensation of the cool breeze blowing against her face, like the wind was peppering her with kisses. She hummed to herself, leaning back into Aemond's chest which felt as rigid as the back of a chair.

Aemond could feel her body move slightly as she heaved a long sigh of contentment. He let go of the reigns and pried her fingers off the saddle to bring her arms to the sides, outstretched.

At first, Y/N gripped his hands, shifting in her seat a little so that she could balance herself even though she knew she was securely chained to the saddle and there was no way she would fall out. Eventually, she loosened her grip and gently rested her comparatively smaller hand in his large one.

Aemond liked the feeling of her soft cool skin against her warm hand, her fingers delicately brushing along his skin as she faced her palms outward to feel the wind hitting against it. Aemond ran his fingers along her knuckles, refusing to break away from the contact. He didn’t know why he was craving the sensation of skin against skin. It was like someone had set a fire ablaze in his chest and the only thing who soothed those flames was her touch.

He was a bit happy that he had forgotten his riding gloves that day.

"Y/N" he leaned in again so that she might better heard him amidst the wind "about last night, I did not wish to imply that I would marry you because it was something I believed to be merely obliged to do"

The princess didn’t respond but she tilted her head slightly, her cheek brushing against Aemond's lips, signifying that she was paying attention.

"You are the blood of the dragon and you deserve nothing less than what befits the gods. I can provide for you, ensure and contribute to your happiness" Aemond made a bold move and slid one arm around her waist, relaxing his tense frame "I only wish the best for you, something I can and will give to you, willingly"

Y/N listened to him intently as her pulse began to quicken.

"No mere lord in the realm would cherish you as much as I do, my dearest friend. I would kill for you, conquer cities for you. You've stood at my side when I had no one and I promise to stay by yours just the same" he continued. He remembered all the horrible marriages within this house: his own mother’s to the king, a marriage that had broken the family. His older brother and sister's, a marriage in which the both of them barely spoke. Daemon and Rhaenyra's, a marriage that was deemed scandalous. Aemond never really expected for anyone to love him, not after his injury but he did have something far more precious that none of the others had: a genuine friendship "the both of us, together, we will be vehement. I am more than willing to take my closest friend as wife because I couldn’t see a more suitable match"

Aemond, this time, deliberately brushed his lips against Y/N's skin, right behind her earlobe which made her shudder.

"I am willing to marry you not solely out of duty. I am willing to do so because I believe we can restore our house to its complete glory"
