Played “Taps” at 11am on the 11th to honor all veterans. Then hosted DePauw and Wabash grads, along with family and friends, at our annual Monon Bell Telecast Party. DePauw won the 129th meeting of the 2 schools in a double overtime nail biter to hang on to The Bell for another year.

Originally known as Armistice Day, Veteran's Day originated from World War I when in November, 1918 an ending of hostilities went into effect on the "eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month." However, it wasn't until June of 1919 when President Wilson signed a Proclamation that Armistice Day was officially designated as a day "filled with solemn pride in the heroism of those who died in the country’s service and with gratitude for the victory." Today we honor all veterans from all wars - like in this 1927 photo where veterans from the Spanish-American War, the Civil War, and World War I gathered together. Thank you for your sacrifices and bravery. For more photos honoring our veterans see AncientFaces.

Check Point (John Price x Reader)

John makes dinner and you discuss decorating for the holiday.

1.1k words

CW: none - this is pure fluff. (Or is it?)

Feedback welcome!

This work is part of the S.N.A.F.U. series, the Masterlist is also pinned to my blog.

Masterlist

John is like the cat that got the cream the entire next day. He’s never out of reach, not exactly hovering, but staying within arms-length. He eventually talks you into watching football with him, which you do, curled around each other for a few hours. He’s only vaguely sorry about the bruises on your thighs, but mindful of them when jostling with you for position on the couch so you can’t get too annoyed with him.

He offers to cook dinner, so you occupy yourself by dragging your box of Christmas decorations out. It’s not big, and half of the box are vintage glass ornaments you are too scared to actually hang on a tree, the glass thin and fragile and the ancient wire hangers rusty. You look up at John after carefully setting the vintage ornaments aside, trying to gauge how receptive he would be to going shopping this close to the holidays. His eyes raise off his task to meet yours, like he can feel the weight of your gaze.

“I don’t have any of the hardware needed to get a tree darling, I think that may have to be a task for next year.”

John speaks before you can say anything. You press your lips together to keep from smiling at his allusion to next year, something warming in your chest at his easy projection into the future.

“That’s alright, I was actually wondering if you would consider coming shopping with me tomorrow? I shouldn’t be spending more money right now but all my decorations are old and you have approximately…?”

You hold up your hand to John, indicating he should fill in the blank you have left at the end of your sentence. He understands without having to be prompted.

“None.”

“Right. Thank you.”

John sighs, going back to his task before replying.

“On a scale of one to ten, how necessary is this shopping? Worth dealing with the crowds?”

You hum, thinking for a moment while you watch him work. You forget, sometimes, that John is a veteran with trauma. He’s so self-assured and confident that things like busy crowds and loud venues half the time don’t occur to you as potential triggers, just a normal course of life. A part of you knows that the landscape is different for John, last night being a prime example.

“No, you know what, don’t worry about it. I can go on my own.”

You cut him some slack, not wanting to put him through unnecessary hardship. That has him looking up at you again though, unexpectedly. He looks like he’s going to say something and then presses his lips together, redirecting himself to rolling a chicken breast around ham and cheese.

You don’t realize he’s still stewing on it until you’re setting up little reindeer figurines made of ceramics along the edge of the island where he’s working.

“Do I get a say in any of this decorating?”

You look up at him, surprised. His face is serious, tracking your placement of the ceramic deer.

“How do the deer offend, my lord?”

You joke, unsure if John’s annoyed with the decorating itself or your choices. He shoots you a look that would probably have anyone else quailing. You raise an eyebrow, unimpressed with his grump and set the deer down in place firmly instead.

“Don’t give me that look, what’s wrong with Vixen and Blitzen?”

“Nothing.” He backpedals, but you aren’t having it.

“You wanted a say, let’s hear it then.”

You gesture with your hand, encouraging him to come out with it. He straightens and looks at you steadily before surprising you again.

“Why did you uninvite me?”

“Uninvite you? From what? Shopping?”

You’re grasping at straws, trying to piece together what’s annoyed him about being let off from that particular task.

“Yeah. You asked if I wanted to go and then told me to forget it immediately. Is this because I don’t condone all that glitter?”

You can’t help the swell of affection that squeezes your heart, looking at him frowning down at you. His hands are held aloft, covered in chicken juices but you step into his side and wrap your arms around his waist tightly anyways. The snowman figurine with generous glitter had been a hard no from the former Captain when you had unpacked it.

“No, it’s because I didn’t think it was fair to ask you to deal with the crowds. Your lack of festive spirit is a separate issue.”

“I can be festive.” He huffs, deflating slightly in your arms.

“Say it louder so my snowman can hear you.”

He shoots you a look and you smile, patting his ribs before letting him loose again.

“You can come if you really need to have a say, John. I just didn’t think it was worth putting you through all the hustle and bustle for just a wreath and some knick-knacks.”

“I know you; you say just a wreath and knick-knacks but you’ll be back here with more bags than you can carry if you’re unsupervised.”

That’s a fair point but you’ll be damned before you let John know that you agree.

“Oh, well if I need saving from myself, I suppose you’re the man for the job.”

You raise an eyebrow at him, casually placing another deer in the line-up. He shakes his head, wisely, focusing back on his work, placing the chicken on a baking tray.

“Trying to save the flat’s limited storage space, love.”

“Hmm…I suppose I can believe that.”

You agree easily, looking at him out of the corner of your eye. He smiles to himself, carrying on to wash his hands at the sink. You watch him, the strong lines of his back flexing under his old t-shirt as he moves. You can’t help picturing the way his back would look as he moves inside you and feel your belly swoop and face heat at the image it conjures in your mind. He turns to dry his hands and catches you staring, face flushed. He raises his eyebrows at you and tucks his chin, a look you know well as an unspoken question. The slow smile that curls across your face is anything but innocent.

“How long is the timer set for?”

You can’t help asking, the thrill of teasing John perennial in your life, now with richer rewards for your trouble. He’s able to read your thoughts just as easily as you read him apparently because his answering grin is savage.

“Long enough.”

Your feet are moving before he’s finished speaking.

★👗⭐️….SUKI’S STYLE !

☆ - EVERY-DAY

- her style is lowkey all over the place but it’s authentic!! a mix of blokette and just whatever she wants to put on that day lolll

- she’s not afraid of mixing different colors, patterns, textures and lengths!!!

- she likes to thrift shop, especially for vintage designer!!! she’s an environmentally friendly queen

- definitely competes with jeongin as the fashionista of skz

- a lot of people think her style is weird but she’s constantly setting trends in sokor sooooooo…..

☆ - DANCE PRACTICE/WORK

- she usually goes for looser fitting, baggier clothes for practice!! especially cause their dances are always very hiphop, she feels more confident that way!

- loves to dress like soulja boy circa 2006 for recording??? and for other…work stuff

- if she’s doing a solo practice or a more sensual dance she’ll trade in her baggy clothes jersey for a tighter fitting outfit

- since she’s usually at the company from 9-5 she just likes to be comfy (but still cute)

☆ - AIRPORT FASHION

- nobody can ever guess what she’s gonna wear because she’s so spontaneous

- will either be in uggs and sweat pants or a blazer and heels, no in between

- literally the definition of never let them know your next move

- also always has on a pair of some type of sunglasses, used to get criticized for it until she stated that she pays for/collects these sunglasses and would like to wear them lol (also you try walking with all those cameras in your face…like)

- she used to hate going to the airport cause the way she dressed was always a topic of discussion but now she’s a proud idgaf war veteran

ERMMMHELLO GUYS IM BACK

so basically I’m probably not gonna be back back but I just wanted to say hi again and give u smthn rq also just to say I’m gonna be like SUPER SUPER BUSY until like March cuz I’m in a musical as a pretty decent role 😭 not to say I won’t be posting until March but I’m not gonna be posting AS MUCH… and won’t be ASSSSS active (it looks like I said ass hehe) anyways little explanation for this 😍 (it’s not little)

Basically I watched the conjuring yesterday and I’ve been obsessed with the song Red Sex by Vessel recently so it’s been getting me in a really spooky mood.

SO THIS IS AN AU LOOSELY BASED ON THE PLOT OF THE FIRST CONJURING. VERY LOOSELY. It’s based in like early 20th century America and Childe is a war veteran suffering with “Shell Shock” who is being targeted by a demonic evil spirit that wants to kill and possess him. (People who are mentally weaker are more susceptible to attention from evil spirits) Things in his house keep moving and vases tip over but he doesn’t really pay any mind to it. One day he goes to church per usual and the church demonologist, Zhongli, senses demonic spirits latching onto him. Zhongli comes up to childe and tells him that he is being haunted. They spend the next few days together tracking the demon’s state until it attempts to possess childe and they are forced to exorcise it.

Childe realizes through zhongli that he has a passion for demonology and wants to learn under zhongli’s guidance. Basically they work togetehr and exorcize demons and they live in an apartment together so they can both monitor haunted artifacts and items they find 😍

Pay no mind to this bc it’s literally just brainrot. LITERAL BRAINROT but old timey black and white horror has got me fucked up recently. Like ur telling me old vintage photographs from back then don’t freak u tf out😨???

Anyways maybe I’ll post more abt this if I still am obsessed w this typa stuff😭 BYEBYEE
