NSFW Alphabet: Tom Holland

Author’s Note: Okay so I posted this about a half hour ago then i realized, it didn’t show up on my dash or the stuff i tagged it in, and im just windering, why is tumblr doing this again?? Anyways someone requested this earlier, and im happy to post it, if it works. ♥

A: Anal

Now this! Would be something Tom would definitely wanna try. You would be persuaded a bit into doing it but nevertheless when you both do it, it brings you both pleasure you’d never thought you’d experience.

B: Boobs

Just because Tom is an ass guy, doesn’t mean he doesn’t love your tits any less. He loves the way they feel in his hands and the way they move when you are grinding your body on him.

C: Cum

Alright, so he loves cumming inside of you. Not just during sex, but when you’re giving head as well. There’s just something about cumming in your warm wet mouth when you’re trying to take all of it that just drives him wild.

D: Doggy Style

You love this position, not because how close or kinky y’all can be in it, but because when he has his chest against your back, you can feel the dog tag that is hanging around his neck against you. You can feel the coldness of the metal press to your neck only adding to your pleasure.

E: Eyes

Everyone always underestimates brown eyes, but in him, his eyes are just gorgeous. Especially when you staring into the honey colored orbs while cumming and he has a hand behind your neck to keep your head from falling back so you don’t lose the eye contact.

F: Food

You guys aren’t really interested with the food idea into sex. You both find the idea either too messy or too sticky to bring into the bedroom.

G: G-Spot

Repeat. He hits your g-spot repeatedly, with his fingers or cock. Doesn’t matter, it just doesn’t seem to stop. He’ll hit it hard constantly so in some cases, you even squirt. But it doesn’t matter because neither of you object to the sight or the feeling when you do.

H: Hair

Recently Tom has been teasing people with his new haircut. Even you. So when the days come when he cuts his hair, you kind of get sad. He looked gorgeous with the hair cut, of course. But that doesn’t stop you from pouting from it. The handfuls of hair you would have when he was in between your legs eating you out, or when he’s on top of you and your pulling the hair at the name of his neck. You’ll miss it, but he always makes it up when he sees that bottom lip pout out. (Oops I did too much)

I: Initiative (who starts it first)

He always starts it. It’s not that you never want it, but he always wants it, even in the most unexpected times. He’ll grab your sides, pull you tighter against him so you can feel how hard he is, and start nibblin on your ear to get you to start at it too.

J: Jacking Off

The long hours away, hotel beds by himself. The coldness of the beds, his own hands do no justice. He’ll FaceTime you as much as he can, even if he’s sleepy as hell, he’ll try to have that alone time with you on the phone just he can have even a smidge of the pleasure he feels with you.

K: Kink

Ooooo, he definitely has a spanking or choking kink. Why not both? Which is why you being on top is his favorite position. You could be bouncing on him as fast as you can, just to get you as close to the edge as you can. And he’ll have one hand on your ass spanking you to leave red marks. And the other hand around your throat pressing lightly while your looking into his eyes begging to cum.

L: Location

Tom is very precise about location. He always makes sure it’s somewhere private. Since his fame is getting bigger as time goes on, Tom chooses to do it in a secluded site where no one will see like the place you live in. If it’s in the car, he makes sure to have his car parked in the garage with the door down so no one can see.

M: Mouth

This is a topic we need to address, no hiding. Tommy got thin lips, but does that stop him from eating out your pussy so good till the moment you scream? Nope! He knows how much you love his tongue so he’ll use that to his advantage and just tongue-fuck the hell out of you.

N: No

With the kinks, Tom may like doing stuff like that, but he will absolutely not go too far. If you say what he is doing is too much, he’ll stop all together and ask if your okay. He needs to know if your okay and comfortable with what he’s doing to make sure your happy.

O: Oral

His head game is A1. His tongue and lip work? Oof, shit takes you to a whole other dimension. He lovessss it when you give head too. He loves feeling your mouth try to take all of him, his favorite thing is to fuck up into your mouth with your eyes watering, mascara running down your cheeks. (Where he gets pretty girl)

P: Part

His arms. His arms never cease to amaze you. The way they wrap around your body, they way they hold you up against the wall, the way they flex when he’s holding you and your legs are wrapped around his wait. His favorite body part of you are your cheeks. Both ass and face. When he’s fucking you from behind you, he loves cumming on them like he’s painting a picture. Sexually or not, he loves holding your face cheeks in his hands. They way they bubble up when you smile, thin out when you have your mouth open from cumming, or hold the cum that he just released on your face. (Too much oops)

Q: Quiet

Ain’t neither of you quiet while you guys are fucking. Another reason why he chooses a secluded location, he actually doesn’t like when people hear you moan because he thinks he should be the only one to.

R: Rhythm

Deep, sensual and passionate. That’s how you both love it. Skin to skin, cheek to cheek, heart to heart. You want each other as much as you can and nothing can come between you two.

S: Sexy

Tom says he feels sexiest when he works out, and you do find him sexiest when he is. Especially when he is boxing. The way his body tenses when he is hitting the punching bag drives you insane and he knows it. He finds you sexiest when you’re wearing his clothes. This one shirt he has: a blue button up. He loves you in it, he’s thought so many times of fucking you from behind in it and screaming out his name.

T: Top

Said before, his favorite position is when you’re on top. That’s when he can have you at your neediest and most vulnerable and he loves it. When you’re on your back, Toms hands get to travel everywhere. They go from your ass, to your boobs, to your side, to hike up your legs and to the pet in your thighs he can grip onto while fucking you deep.

U: Unprotected (yes I mean no condom)

As much as he loves cumming in you, he loves the image in his head (and possibly on his phone) of cum on your skin. He finds it so pretty, with the white on your stomach or back and you looked all fucked out of it, and he loves it because he made you like that, he put you in that state.

V: Virgin

Tom doesn’t like one night stands. He never did them, but doesn’t mean he’s pure. He’s definitely had sex, and so have you. And when you guys found each other, you perfected the art. You both found out what your really good at, what your not so good at, and what you both love and hate.

W: Wetness (horniness)

We’ve talked about how needy Tom can get, but he’s not alone. When your in the mood and you initiate it, the wetness could have you both swimming. He loves it when you get in that kind of mood without him having to do anything, gives him a certain type of power when he knows he can do that to you.

X: X-Ray (how big he is)

Tom may be on the short side with his height, don’t mean he on short size down there. He fills you up perfectly, with just some more left over and you love it. He drowns in the cockiness (get it) of his size and sometimes you have to shut him up with a kiss.

Y: Yearning

His hormones and your hormones don’t go well together. When he comes back from those long movie filming times, you guys go crazy like rabbits.

Z: Zzz

Doesn’t matter if it was kinky, rough, slow or gentle; if you guys just had sex, you’re knocking out right after. It’s usually with you having your face buried into his neck, falling asleep with the smell of him. Or him having his head in your neck, cuz our bug needs to be cuddled too.

Taken from @requiemforrose

ABC FACTS ABOUT Marius

A) Their full name: Marius de Romanus (only two people know this full and real name: Pandora and Armand)

B) Age: 38 in mortal years, around 2050 in total years adding up mortal and immortal

C) Height: 6’6 (i haven’t decided yet)

C1: Hair color: Blonde hair, almost white

C2: Eye Color: Light blue eyes

C3: Built: Lean and muscular

D) Pronouns. He/him

E) Species: Vampire

F) Favourite beverage and/or meal: Blood. As a human, he loved wine and fruits like peaches; really soft and juicy fruits. He wasn’t much of a meat eater because he hated the heaviness of it. Marius was a “snacker” more than a meal eater. Meaning, he was always eating something: fruit, olives, nuts. Find Marius and he’s likely eating something small. But he was very active and had a fortunate metabolism.

G) Hobbies and favourite pastimes: reading, writing nonfiction historical accounts, historiography

H) Something they’re exceptionally good at: Painting

I) 2 things they really enjoy:

1) Reading in a quiet room in front of a fire while lying on a couch.

2) Sitting in the Chateau garden writing. He will take occasional breaks to look at the plants or stare up at the sky and think.

J) 2 things they’re not really fond of:

1) Loud people. He really doesn’t feel like there’s any reason to be loud and/or obnoxious.

K) Listening to the same story over and over. He’ll just outright finish your story for you and walk away if he’s in a bad mood. Good or mild mood Marius would listen to it but be grumpy and slightly annoyed on the inside.

L) Their favorite kind of weather: He generally likes the spring because the weather is mild-- not too hot, not too cold with a gentle breeze. But he does enjoy standing outside as it snows. The cold doesn’t bother his already frigid body. There’s something about the soft falling of snow and the gentle sound of it landing that is comforting to him.

M) A few interesting facts about them:

1) He’s a Capricorn.

2) He is an excellent whistler and will often whistle when he paints or sculpts.

3) He hates westerns.

4) He loves the show Horrible Histories.

5) He owns absolutely 0 pairs of jeans or shorts.

N) Favorite movie or music genre:

Favorite Movie: Blade Runner, The Name of the Rose, or the Seventh Seal.

Music Genre: He likes classical, of course. But you’re likely to hear artists like Frank Sinatra, Nat King Cole, Johnny Mercer, and Bing Crosby come from his room.

O) What’s their dream profession? When he was human, his goal was to be a writer/historian/anthropologist. He wanted to wander the known world and write about everything and everyone he came into contact with. Fortunately, Marius did get to do this; he got to live his dream. Unfortunately, it was this very thing that led to him getting kidnapped and turned into a blood drinker, stealing him from a life he was quite content with.

P) Is there something or someone they cannot stand? Why? He has a hard time stomaching the presence of Santino. He can choke back his utter disgust and endure the man. Marius is too reserved and polite now, too honorable and committed to self-control and moderation that he can easily hide any extreme emotion.

Q) Did they do something extremely dangerous at some point in their life? His whole immortality until 1985 was dangerous simply due to the fact that he was keeper of the Parents and therefore always in danger of being caught, attacked, or otherwise abused in some way that might lead to his death, or worse, the death of Akasha.

R) Is there something they wish they could do/achieve but can’t? He wishes he could open up more. Marius is a very self-reflective man. His problem is even in self-reflection he denies seeing certain things. But he knows enough to see that he is angry and bitter, and he can’t seem to heal because he is too prideful and reserved to truly open up to someone.

S) Is there something in their life they regret? Leaving Pandora, abandoning Armand, letting Lestat see Those Who Must Be Kept.

T) Do they have any siblings? Family? Loved ones? He had three older brothers and two sisters, one older and one a month older than him. Marius was the youngest, which made him the most spoiled. He had one daughter that he has never spoken of that absolutely no one knows about. At one point, for about 300 years, Marius followed his family and his ancestors. Not even Pandora was aware he did this. I suppose he thought it would seem too pathetic, too sentimental. He experienced a period of depression around that time and he “severed” his connections with the mortal world. One of the things he did other than burn and bury his own writing, which he saw as corrupt having come from a monster such as he, was burn the records of his family.

U) Are they a morning or night person? He has no choice but to be a night person. As a human, he was a morning person. He was the sort to be up before the sun rose no matter how late a night he had or how much he drank. He would watch the sun rise, exercise, eat, and then work or venture out if he was traveling.

V) Do they have a pet? What kind? If not, what kind of pet would they want? Marius has no pets and wants none. He had fish but they, well, died when Akasha ripped his home in two.

W) How would they describe themselves in 5 or less words? Wise, considerate, contemplative, introverted, artistic

X) Do they have a goal in life? What is it? He wants to be that thing that remembers time. He is obsessed with the continuation of awareness. He wants to believe in the presence of something that knows all of time, even though he knows it is impossible. But he feels he owes it to time to remember it. That is why he studies, learns, listens, and watches. Everything he writes down so as not to lose it in an overworked mind.

Y) Is there anything in their life that’s stopping them from succeeding? He’s so very lonely and won’t even admit it. He somehow lost the ability to connect with people on an emotional level.

Z) Do they have an item that means a lot to them? Nothing. He has no relics from his past-- his home burned down three times and was torn into pieces once (by Akasha). That’s four times he has lost absolutely everything. Once he lost everything for the final time in 1985, he has pretty much not let himself value any physical object or ‘thing.’ He has a lot of beautiful things, but none of it anything he is particularly attached to. Anything of his could be broken or lost and he wouldn’t care.

Forms of Family 3

Part Three

Dee’s nerves were shot.

He had spent so much time- he didn’t even know how much anymore- talking to doctors who asked him the same questions so many times he wasn’t sure he knew the answer to them anymore.

On top of big general worry over Virgil’s condition, Patton would sporadically start to cry out of worry (in any other situation Dee would find it adorable), the twins were antsy as they began to rough house with one another, and finally Logan paced insistently as he kept trying to call their father (using Dee’s phone) to no avail.

Virgil was paler than he usually was, and his small chest heaved as he took short shallow breaths. His dark eyes were closed tightly, as if he was pain- and it only pained Dee more.

“Daddy?” Dee looked away from Virgil at the sound of Patton’s voice as he looked up to see the doctor had returned.

Patton climbed out his arms allowing him to stand slowly before he followed the doctor further away from the boys to speak.

“Based on the tests run and what you explained to us we believe he has a virus most likely caught for your other son, which led to an infection.”

Dee nodded digesting the information, “So he’ll be okay?”

“He will, but we will need to stay here for possibly a few days so he can have antibiotics, and monitoring. I’ll have him transferred out of the ER and into a more permanent room in a different part of the hospital.”

Weight fell from Dee’s chest as he gave a sigh of relief. No he didn’t want to be there longer, but long as Virgil was going to be okay that’s what mattered.

~~~~

Dee was thankful for his friends.

Despite his telling them that things were fine Brenda, Miranda, and more had come to offer well wishes. They brought him a change of clothes from the house and activities for the boys to do, and they had even offered to let the boys sleep in their homes as Dee was rooted to the spot.

Everyone was there to offer support.

Everyone but his husband.

“Daddy?” Patton asked pulling on his shirt.

Dee nodded and stood up and after making sure the other boys were fine he headed out the room to the bathroom.

He was gone for less than five minutes.

Less than five minutes.

And yet when he got back what did he find?

Virgil crying, Logan holding back a kicking and screaming Roman, and Remus- Remus had sunk his teeth into the nurses hand.

Dee was frozen and shock for half a moment until he noticed the nurse’s hand rise up to strike. But Dee’s fingers curled around her wrist before she could dare.

At his sudden appearance Remus released the woman and she wrenched her hand back. She tried to move back so Dee let her go.

“Do everyone a favor and watch your kids,” she snapped.

Dee held back a retort, he wasn’t going to piss off someone watching Virgil. “Remus apologize, now.”

Remus looked smug, but he gave an apology anyways, “Sorry.”

She hurried from the room then leaving Dee alone with his sons. The first thing he did was take a breath before he picked up Virgil and bounced him a few times to get the baby to calm down a bit. When he had quieted slightly he turned the others, “What happened?”

Logan let go of Roman, who then took up post beside Remus before he spoke. “Vee was crying and Remus wanted to help, but she came in and said we couldn’t touch him!”

“He’s our brother not hers!” Remus added in. “I know how to hold him! So she tried to pull me away, so I bit her! And she tried to hit me!”

“So I kicked her! Until Logan became a buzzkill!”

“She didn’t want you to touch him because it’s a matter of being sanitary, not familial ties,” Logan explained.

“So?”

“Yeah so?”

Dee gave a sigh, “You can’t bite people Remus. And I need you guys to listen to what the doctors and nurses say, alright? It’s what’s best for Virgil, okay?”

“Okay...”

“Fine... But if she’s mean to him, I’ll kick her again.”

Dee held back an eye roll (Logan didn’t), “Fine. Whatever, just sit and quiet down.”

“Fine parenting,” Logan muttered.

“Logan, I’m not in the mood.”

“Noted.”

~~~~

It took two nurses, one doctor‍, and his friend Miranda to pull him away from the hospital room. But the furthest he would go is the first floor to get a coffee.

“So glad I pried you from that room,” Miranda commented as they stepped out of the elevator onto their floor.

Dee sipped at his coffee, “Yeah, the bad coffee is totally worth it.”

She rolled her eyes and was quiet for a moment before she spoke, “Have you heard from...?”

Dee gave a sigh as his fingers involuntarily clenched and unclenched into fists. “No. I left half a million messages and sent twice that in texts... and I got nothing.”

Miranda paused in thought, before she stopped in her walk and turned to face him with a serious look. “I know you don’t want to hear this, but personally I think you’re better off without him.”

“Miranda I-”

“I’m not going to overstep more than that. But if you are still set on trying to contact him, maybe you could try using someone else’s phone? He might have you blocked.”

Dee opened and closed his mouth unsure of how to proceed, but she nodded slowly.

“If you need a phone feel free to use mine.”

He watched as she pulled out the device and held it out to him, but he shook his head and turned. He couldn’t be blocked... right?

“We should head back,” were the only words he could force out as he turned to walk the way they had come.

The walk back was silent, until he slid open the door and was greeted with the scene inside.

“I win!”

The shout came from Roman and Remus playing some game on their iPad in the corner. Apparently Remus had won whatever it was. Beside them Logan was nose deep in a book while Patton lay on the floor with a coloring book. It was a scene so normal he almost wished he could pick the whole thing up and drop it in his house. That Virgil would be healthy and things could be back to normal.

When he entered the room they all looked up at him, but he said nothing making his way back to Virgil.

“When can V come home?” Patton asked him.

Dee gave a sigh as he sat in his seat, “Hopefully soon Patt. Tomorrow or the day after.”

“That’s far away.”

“I know, but it’s to make sure Virgil is feeling his best, alright?”

“He needs to feel better faster then.”

Dee nodded, “I agree.”

~~~~

“Pacific.”

“Pacific. P-A-C-I-F-I-C. Pacific.”

“Paralysis.”

“Paralysis. P-A-R-A-L-Y-S-I-S. Paralysis. Come on give me something harder.”

“Fine, sorry, I thought we starting easy and building up. Um so... exasperation.”

“What’s the point?” Roman interjected. “Logan wins every year. He doesn’t need to practice. He’s the best speller! ...Er...”

“Speller. And why do you go to soccer practice then?” Logan asked him. “You guys won the last three games.”

“We don’t play soccer anymore,” Remus put in. “We’re gonna do karate.”

Dee sighed, “That’s not confirmed yet.”

“We can’t do karate?” Roman asked. God the kid sounded like Dee had done something terrible. He grimaced,

“I’m not saying that either. I need to look into some things first.”

“So that’s a yes?”

“It’s a maybe.”

"Maybes are yeses!"

Dee gave a sigh as Logan frowned, “They are not. Do- do you know the definition of both words?”

“It’s not a yes right now,” Patton threw in. “He has to talk to Dad first!”

Dee felt a pain in his chest as he gave the boy a smile, “E-exactly Patt.”

“What’s the next word again?” Logan asked changing the subject.

Dee nodded thankful for it, “Um... we were on exasperation.”

“Exasperation. R-O-M-A-N-A-N-D-R-E-M-U-S. Exasperation.”

Dee just shook his head, “I need a nap.”

~~~~

When the name flashed on his screen Dee swore his heart stopped beating.

His eyes flickered to his sons to find Logan watching him curiously. He gave a hard swallow as he grabbed his phone tightly and walked out into the hallway. The nothingness in his heart was suddenly replaced by a jackhammer as he finally answered the call.

“Hello?” His voice shaky, quiet, and weaker than he wanted it to be.

“You always take forever to pick up,” grunted the voice on the other side.

“Virgil he-”

“Where’s your watch?”

Dee felt himself deflate, “What?”

“Where’s you watch?” He asked again. “The one I gave you on our honeymoon? I need it.”

“What? W-why?”

“Does it matter? Where is it?”

“I don’t know. But why-”

“Of course,” there was a banging and shuffling on the other side. “You fucking lose everything. I already checked your side table and the safe, do you have any ideas on where it could be?”

“Virgil is in the hospital,” Dee stated bluntly. “He has been for two nights now.”

“What does that have to do with a watch?”

Dee gave a laugh of disbelief as his anger began to rise, “Nothing at all. But he’s your son too, so shouldn’t that be where your concern lie? With your son? Or with a fucking watch?”

“...Don’t swear around the kids.”

“Oh now you’re concerned?” Dee shouted. “You hate that I swear, but you can’t fucking come to the hospital see your son? What the hell is wrong with you?”

“Don’t raise your-“

“Don’t! Don't you even try to tell me what to do anymore. I’m done with you and all this bullshit. So listen up, you have two choices. You come here now and be with your children, or you get the fuck out of our lives and never contact us again.”

“You can’t do that.”

“Yes I can! I’m done lying to the boys! I’m done lying to myself! I gave you your choices. Come and be a father or get out of our lives.”

“Damien,” his voice was slow and angry, but Dee couldn’t bring himself to care.

“What?”

“You are aware that I pay for everything right?”

“...I guess you made your choice.”

“That’s not what I said.”

“If your money is more important that your children then you made your choice. So feel free to take your money with you. I’ll keep my kids.”

“Damien I-”

Dee cut him off by hanging up the phone. He stared down at it for a moment before he took a deep breath to stop the tears burning at his eyes.

“Dad?”

The soft call came from behind him and Dee turned to see Logan and the twins standing in the doorway. He opened and closed his mouth, but no words came out. He moved back into the room and sat in his chair before he felt small arms pull him into a hug.

He lost his battle against the tears as he hugged Roman back. There was a short pause before the other three joined and Dee held his children tightly to his chest.

“Daddy’s not coming back?” Patton asked quietly.

Dee forced himself to take a deep breath as he pulled back enough to look them all in the eye. “Our family is going to be a bit different now,” he started slowly. “But it’s okay. There’s many forms of families, and now ours is just us. But it’s okay, we’ll be okay. Can you guys trust me on that?”

Logan nodded and adjusted his glasses, “One hundred percent.”

“Good, I’m gonna need your help Logan.”

“You needed my help even when he was around.”

Dee smiled ignoring the way his tears still fell, “Glad I can count on you.”

“We thought he wasn’t coming back anyway,” Roman admitted.

Remus nodded solemnly, “Dad’s never been gone this long... Does he really not care anymore?”

“I’m sorry,” Dee told them both. “I want to think he does, but I don’t know. But I’ll be here for you guys regardless okay?”

Dee looked to Patton and it pained him to find tears in the young boy’s eyes. He pulled him close mumbling apologies as he was unsure what else to do. But Patton held him back saying that he loved him. And that was good enough.

Because even without him, they were still a family. And while some could try to cause rifts and difficulties to break them up, Dee would always be there for them as their father- as their dad who asked for nothing in return.

Thank you so much for reading!!!!

The Incomplete History of Secret Organizations - How to Crack the Code

Now that Season Three of A Series of Unfortunate Events has aired, I feel it’s about time to finally tell y’all the Code from The Incomplete History of Secret Organizations- for those of you who can’t get the book, haven’t read it yet, can’t figure out the code, or who just don’t wanna spend time finding it out yourselves.

On page 188 of The Incomplete History of Secret Organizations, the key to cracking a code sprinkled throughout the book is provided:

WARNING → THERE IS A SECRET MESSAGE IN THIS BOOK

You may have noticed a cross-referencing technique that appears throughout these pages, looking as such: (See: Notorious Researchers, pg. 30). This device is a helpful way to direct readers to relevant information that can be found elsewhere in a text.

It is also a handy way to send a secret message.

Every librarian knows that books contain secrets, and hiding a secret message in the pages of a book is a frequent VFD tactic. Volunteers who cleverly cross-reference will discover the message, while their enemies, who rarely finish a book, remain unaware.

If you have read this far, you may be wondering how to discover this message yourself. First read the book carefully, making note of any parentheticals shaded an unusual hue. This is no printer error; it is a key informing you that part of the message can be found on the suggested page. Follow the references and locate the letters colored a corresponding hue. These letters are scrambled, not unlike an anagram. Once you have unscrambled the word, write it on the color-coded line of this telegram. Completing the telegram will reveal the answer to a question that has stumped philosophers, police inspectors, and even Lemony Snicket:

What comes after the end of The End?

Next to this description is a photo of a telegram, which is fourteen words long:

___ ____ __ _______

____ ___ __ _____

____ ____ _____

__ _____ _____

And, indeed, each word is underlined in a different color.

Now... onto cracking the code.

As referenced, there are occasional cross-references in the text. And sometimes, the See: is in the color you need to look for.

If you follow each See to its corresponding page, you’ll find letters scattered across the text that are in the color you need to find. These letters make up each word.

Word-by-word, let’s see what we can find:

The first word, in dark purple, is on page 133: The Reptile Room. To be honest, this is the hardest word to find: the dark color is very close to the color of the actual text. There are three letters here, in the following sentences:

You always want to do something new, but at the same time, I wanted to see if there were clues I could integrate into the design.

This flips it so the priority is the reptiles, and his own living space is sort of diminutive.

And in “The Reptile Room,” [Monty]’s delighted to share his world with these kids.

otw

The second word is on page 99: Toupees for Toddles, in an orange-ish color. There are four letters, which can be found in the following sentences:

“Well, we can’t put a wig on a baby.”

It’s one of the oddest things I’ve ever done in my career, applying a little wig on a baby.

When we started the second season, Presley had grown her hair long enough that we could actually create the ponytail with here own hair, which was a relief.

ests

The third word, in a hot pink, is on page 130: Mr Poe’s Office. There are only two letters, which can be found in the following sentences:

It can be goofy, but it’s never goofy-stupid.

He’s the guy that’s literally standing between Olaf and the Baudelaire fortune.

The fourth word, on page 110: How to Dress for a Masked Ball, in a gray-blue color, can be found in the following sentences, with seven letters:

The flashback that opens “The Carnivorous Carnival” is set at a Venetian-style masked ball, where masks conceal a number of familiar faces. Cynthia Summers designed each mask with the character in mind, including Dr Orwell’s “eyeglasses,” a Medusa-inspired snake mask for Uncle Monty, and theatrical comedy/tragedy masks for the Snicket Brothers. (Jacques wears the comedy mask, while Lemony, of course, is tragedy.) The ball also marks the first on-screen appearance of the mysterious Beatrice, described in the script as “a beautiful woman dressed as a dragonfly.”

eidnrsf

The fifth word, four letters long, is on page 45: Olivia Caliban/Madame Lulu, is in gray:

A dangling thread from Season One was a certain book on secret organizations discovered by Justice Strauss - a book whose title will be familiar to anyone reading this.

Still, they liked the idea of a character finding The Incomplete History of Secret Organizations and having the book change your life, as it will no doubt change yours.

While the book’s version of Olivia is a veteran agent of dubious morality, the show reinvents her as a noble school librarian struggling against institutional corruption.

There, disguised as Madame Lulu, she fulfills her mission of passing the book to the Baudelaires - and sacrifices herself at the lion pit to save their lives.

jtsu

The sixth word, colored light orange, is on page 109: How to Dress for a Career in Food Service. The three letters can be found here:

Author Daniel Handler explains that the VFD agents we meed in the show are the types of people whom children notice by adults overlook.

You’re going to notice things that are invisible to the adults talking over your head.

Take a good look at the restaurant’s terrifying logo.

uto

On page 141: The Miserable Mill is the seventh word, in two red letters:

“The Wide Window” left us with no more stage space, so it forced us to shoot the mill at a real location, an old dock building which we then tried to make look like a stage.

Klaus comes back from the eye doctor, but he isn’t quite himself.

The eighth word is on page 97: The Real Sugar Bowl. There are five light purple letters:

According to Esme, it was stolen from her by Beatrice, and according to Olivia, it may have been the reason for the VFD schism. It’s not the first sugar bowl to play a vital role in a work of classic literature (interested parties may seek out We Have Always Lived in The Castle at their local library), but Daniel Handler muses on another possible inspiration: “There a whole sugar scene in the movie Midnight (See: Snicket, Jacques, pg 44) that must have seeped into me when I was a child. Somehow I think that was one of the sugar bowls of literature that ended up sneaking in.”

The existence of four identical sugar bowl [props] may be of interest to Esme Squalor, or at least her actress, Lucy Punch, who requested to keep one when the series wrapped. “My character was so desperate for it,” says Punch. “It seemed appropriate.”

eahrc

The ninth word, in blue, is on page 172: The Carnivorous Carnival. There are four letters:

There’s literally no program you can watch that’s any wierce.

The aesthetic of carnivals and circuses is naturally creepy and absurd to begin with. And then you add the overlay of our material, where everything is filtered through the Baudelaires, so the sets are designed to be seen as if you’re a vulnerable child glimpsing this horrible world and trying to maintain hope.

Count Olaf arrives at Caligari Carnival, where he hopes the fortune-teller can help him.

wlli

The tenth word is on page 89: The Many Faces of Barry Sonnenfeld. There are four green letters:

and in “The Vile Village,” he’s the fire chief posing with his Dalmatian int he firehouse-turned-saloon.

A common ancestor to our series’ interconnected families?

Barry birthday is April Fool’s Day, and for his birthday, I decided to knock off a painting with him in it.

We’re shooting the Hotel Denouement right now, and the whole hotel isi based on the Dewey Decimal System, and each floor is a different subject.

eetm

On page 64-65: The Sinister Songs, you can find five magenta letters for the eleventh word:

“I was a huge fan of the books in my twenties, and I was also a huge fan of Barry Sonnenfeld, so to see those two come together and actually be a part of it was unreal.”

Count Olaf introduces himself to the Baudelaires with this song and dance - ignoring the fact he’s already met them. Handlers says, “Singing is perfect for Count Olaf because he imagines himself so wonderful.”

All of the dance numbers were choreographed by Paul Becker, who pulled double duty in the first half of “The Carnivorous Carnival”.

She’s had quite an exciting / Time on the road

agina

On page 24: Violet the Inventor, there are two gray letters for the twelfth word:

But now those inventions, like the Baudelaire mansion itself, are gone.

She promised her parents she would always look after them, and while Count Olaf’s schemes have put that promise to the test, Violet’s managed to stand strong in even the most unfortunate situation.

Pages 116-117: Deciphering Code: Using the Dials of the Spyglass, has five purple letters for the thirteenth word:

As a volunteer, you already know why and when the spyglass was created (See: Motion Picture, Pg 10) but we will briefly recap its history here.

A permanent mark has its advantages, since even the most absent-minded member rarely leave the house without their ankle (See: Peg Leg, pg 86), but it has its drawbacks too, particularly if the organization undergoes a schism, so that the same symbol that once stood for comradery and literacy suddenly represents treachery and pyromania now that it is inscribed on the ankles of your enemies.

But just as a movie might be more than a movie, a spyglass can be more than a spyglass.

Critics called these films terrible, which was the point: Sebald wanted to ensure that no one would want to see them besides other volunteers, who would be more interested in their secret messages than their artistic value.

The cinema’s projectionist assigns the film a production code made up of a unique combination of numbers and symbols.

riynb

The fourteenth and final word can be found on page 32: Who is Lemony Snicket? There are five pale green letters:

He is currently investigating the lives of the Baudelaire orphans, though his reason for doing so is unknown, as are his whereabouts.

Mr. Snicket can be identified by his dry wit, his tailored suits, and his ankle tattoo, as well as his tendency to launch into wordy monologues containing Very Frequent Definitions.

But when developing the series for Netflix, Barry Sonnenfeld and Daniel Handler independently felt that their Snicket should be seen as well as heard.

And they both independently thought of Patrick Warburton, a frequent Sonnenfeld collaborator whom Handler had loved in a little-seen film called The Woman Chaser. Volunteers who track it down will note that it features Warburton speaking to the camera in a suit and a deadpan style that one might call Serlinig-esque - or Snicket-esque.

haebc

The Code

So now we have all the words: ��

otw ests of eidnrsf

on riynb haebc

Which do not take a long time to unscramble...

What comes after the end of The End?

Well, it turns out... the code is a couplet...

Two sets of friends, just out of reach

Will meet again on Briny Beach.

So here’s my review on the newest MLB episode (Chris Master):

Although I was lowkey disappointed in this episode ngl, cause one, I thought there would be more ig, and two, cause I feel like it was kinda a filler episode if you yk what I mean (??) I still liked it for multiple reasons and here’s why:

Chris is probably the cutest kid they ever put on this show (although August is vv cute ok)

*In future episodes I want some more Nino and Chris content just saying cause ugh I can see lots of brotherly love there, and we just don’t get enough Nino in this show*

Going off what I said about Nino, he’s literally so pure and cute in this episode. (And I have so many questions for Santa and why the hell Nino is so low on the list like??)

I love Marinette, Nino, and Alya’s friendship it’s so cute, and I love how they immediately go to Mari to watch Nino’s little brother while they go on a date. (love them :’) ) Marinette really is THAT babysitter.

And I LOVE whenever Alya calls Marinette ‘girl’ like idk why but friendship goals right there y’all.

Although Chris was kind a a brat to Mari at first, Marinette and Chris’ little friendship is sweet, and even if Marinette lied to Chris and stuff about her being an elf and making up the whole story about Santa, it was still a cute moment where Chris was so fascinated and paid such close attention to Marinette and her words.

I wish Carapace was in this episode only for the fact that Chris is Nino’s brother and I want to seem him get protective and such over Chris although then it might get too personal and Carapace might just get in the way. (Then again, it would probably add a little more suspense to the episode too)

I read a post about how someone thought the Santa Claus in this episode was fake cause he would know who Ladybug and Chat’s identity is and Ladybug would not be the best kid in the world (lol true) and I agree. Adding on to that theory, I feel like Chris subconsciously made that Santa to make his ‘dream’ come true (even if Santa denied that he was the best kid). And this could also be because he heard everything Marinette told him and believed her.

I honestly really liked the whole concept with Ladybug and Chat Noir fighting ‘toy versions’ of them idk why I just found it interesting.

Although I wish there were more sentimental Ladynoir moments there’s one point when they’re fighting their toy selves, and they’re talking and Chat sees his ‘toy version’ coming towards them and he grabs and pushes Ladybug away. uwu my heart !!

AND WHEN CHAT SASSED LADYBUG AFTER SHE WAS LIKE “don’t you think this whole thing is kinda strange?” AND HE DEAD RESPONDED WITH “Stranger than fighting a pharoah’s reincarnation or a pigeon overlord empowered by magical butterflies you mean?” AND HE HAS THIS SMIRK ON HIS FACE WHILE SHE HAS THE MOST BORED LOOK IVE EVER SEEN ON HER FACE WHEN HES TALKING TO HER SKSKSKS

Love how Santa was over on the side of the ice rink pouting about all the hatred in the world I laughed so hard when the scene cut to the toys, Chat Noir, and Ladybug flailing across the ice as Philippe is gracefully skating across it sksksks

When I was watching this episode, I was just watching really closely at the details for some reason, and can I just say no matter how good any episode is or how good the plot is, the animation is always so beautiful ? Like I was just watching Mari in the beginning and you can notice her little ticks whether it be just little twitches or the way her hair moves or she moves, it’s just always so good.

Chat Noir in a Santa hat that is too big for his head makes my heart go swoosh. The only emoji to describe that is this 🥰 (rip to anyone who can’t see that emoji I’m sorry it’s the new blushing emoji with hearts around it if you must know.)

This episode is actually so colorful and I love it like wow.

I love Nino and Ladybug’s interaction (new friendship please??) and I love when Santa lets his list fall on the ground they’re completely ~shook~ reaction lmao

Nino was so concerned for his brother and was begging Ladybug to help find Chris even while everything was going on and it was freaking snowing in Paris, like this kid is so oblivious but I love him.

When Ladybug used Nino’s back to lean on as she wrote what she wanted for Christmas was adorable especially because Nino had this little confused kind of smile on his face omg

The fact that Ladybug literally asks Santa Claus for whatever Chris wants even when it’s the only thing she could have all year from Santa is the most selfless, wholesome thing to happen in this episode ugh

BUT WHEN CHAT GETS UPSET THAT LADYBUG IS THE BEST BEHAVING KID IN THE WORLD AND SHE GETS COCKY AND GIVES HIM THE LOOK I WHEEZED SO HARD

Chat was the cutest thing ever, he is pure and he radiated Adrien vibes the whole time I watched this.

When Ladybug sniffs Santa’s hat I was like ‘wtf’ but then when she described the basic smells of Christmas it made me want December to come faster.

^^which also made me wonder what month is it supposed to be in the mlb timeline rn??

Ngl, Philippe kinda annoys me normally, but I loved the moments with him and Chat begging for presents from Santa Claus in this. Comedy g o l d .

The fact that Marinette actually made gifts for Adrien’s next thirty five birthdays. This kid better embrace his feelings for her soon before it becomes even more borderline creepy lmao

I feel like also at the end it just shows how much growth Chris went through between the beginning of the episode and him being akumatized considering it’s in a span of like a day.

When at the end the mischievous little shit Chris still wanted to know what was inside Mari’s trunk even after technically getting akumatized by his curiosity about it and after Marinette tries to explain its has stuff for her crush in it and he ended up cutting her off saying it was ‘gross’ anyways

^^and how all this time Marinette was thinking about his whole elaborate response to it and how he would probably go back to his brother to tell him, who would go to Adrien and tell him, and it would be hella awkward at school but she didn’t even get that far into telling him before he stopped her.😂😂

Marinette chasing Chris around at the very end and teasing him is just proof she will be a great mother and amazing aunt to Nino and Alya’s kids.👀

And Marinette’s denial and utmost confusion throughout this whole episode just ties it all together and makes it better than it already is.

Overall, this episode was very cute. (As I stated twenty billion times already in my reasons of liking this show)

I seriously psychoanalyzed this episode w o w but it’s fine these are just my observations on everything.

#cat noir #chat noir #ladybug #marinette dupain cheng #adrien agreste #nino lahiffe #alya cesaire #miraculous ladybug #the tales of ladybug and cat noir #season three #season 3 #chris master #djwifi #miraculous ladybug season 3 #mlb #ml

I think you should do ALL THE ASKS :D

WELL ALL RIGHT THENA - Ships that you currently like a lot. (They don’t have to be OTPs because not everyone has OTPs.) Friendships, pairings, threesomes, etc. are allowed.1) DCAU TimSteph2) ItsuHaru3) Logan x Diana Prince4) Itsuki Koizumi x Kyouya OotoriB - A pairing–platonic, romantic or sexual–that you initially didn’t consider, but someone changed your mind.*looks at WonderWolf and SuperBats*C - A ship you have never liked and probably never will.BatCat. Even back when I wasn’t a fan of Batman I remember I read one DCAU comic involving Catwoman, and her character just didn’t appeal to me.D - A pairing you wish you liked but just can’t.Any Kagepro ships tbh. Idk I’m just not really invested in the romance of the series. I prefer them all as friends/platonic.E - Have you added anything cracky/hilarious to your fandom? If so, what?Ahaha… I’ve contributed a fair bit of Kagecrack through vids/posts, though I think my favorite are these BTAS crossover edits.Also Kyorange and Skitzo!Kyon for TMoHS. (Plus the “genderbent cast is the previous generation” theory if that counts?)F - What’s the longest you’ve ever been in a fandom?Well I’ve been a Pokémon fan since elementary school. While I no longer watch the show/play the games, I still follow the new generations and RP on occasion.G - Have you ever had an OTP? If so, do you remember your first one? Who was in it?Eeyup. While I don’t ship too often, when I do I ship HARD. ItsuHaru was my first real “obsessive” OTP, but I think the honor for the *very* first ship I had goes to… Cody x Ken from Digimon S2, in a sense. *shot* ^^; Idk I was just really focused on the idea of them making up and becoming “friends”. XP Though I also shipped Ken with Kari too bc of the Dark Ocean stuff. (Also Gary Oak x Molly Hale from Pokémon but that’s a whole other story. >.>; )H - What is your favorite source text for fandom stuff (e.g., TV shows, movies, books, anime, Western animation, etc.)?I’m still mostly a weeb so animu is my go-to, but I’ve been branching out to more Western stuff lately. (Although when it comes to Kagepro the songs are still the best medium. =3=)I - Has Tumblr caused you to stop liking any fandoms, if so, which and why?Steven Universe. While I still love the show, hearing about all the toxicity in the fandom really turned me off so I just try to avoid it.J - Name a fandom you didn’t think about until you saw it all over Tumblr. (You don’t have to care about it or follow it; it just has to be something that Tumblr made you aware of.)Again, Steven Universe. Also Over the Garden Wall and Bojack Horseman (the former of which I still really recommend you see).K - What character has your favorite development arc/the best development arc?I’m also gonna say Sunset Shimmer from Equestria Girls. She went from being a seemingly one-off villain to a fully redeemed good guy and leader in her own right. Though she still has her insecurities, it lets her relate to and help others in the same situation to not let those feelings of inadequacy or jealousy overcome them.Also Midna from Twilight Princess. Her change of heart from servicing her own needs to selfless sacrifice after observing how hard Link tried to save others mirrors my own feelings when I met Link in OoT/MM and watched him grow into a true hero, working to help both the people of Hyrule and Termina even when he had no obligation or was openly blamed for Ganon’s rise to power.L - Say something genuinely nice about a character who isn’t one of your faves. (Characters you’re neutral about are fair game, as are characters you merely dislike. Characters that you absolutely loathe with the fire of ten thousand suns are exempt, as there is no point in giving yourself an aneurysm over a character that you hate.)So I’m not a big fan of Dick Grayson in the DCAU (or any of his animated adaptations aside from Lego Batman; his YJ version being especially egregious) since I see him as rather childish and bad at dealing with conflict, but he’s admittedly a lot better in the tie-in comics, which give him some much needed development as Nightwing (whereas he barely got any screentime in TNBA). There he acts as a genuine big brother to Tim, and is shown to not be as nearly as bitter at Bruce as the Old Wounds ep would have one believe. I also like that they highlight Dick’s fondness for music, wherein his musical knowledge actually comes in handy to solve a couple cases.M - Name a character that you’d like to have for a friend.All of the Mekakushi Dan, SOS Brigade, or Host Club tbhN - Name three things you wish you saw more or in your main fandom (or a fandom of choice).1) More Kagepro content in general2) More DCAU TimSteph 3) More ItsuHaru

O - Choose a song at random. Which ship or character does it remind you of?Growing Up - Run River NorthDefinitely a Timmy Todd/TimSteph song now that I think about it. Especially the lines “I found my way without your help, with a broken family” and “monsters in my head”. ;(P - Invent a random AU for any fandom (we always need more ideas).…Tbh I’m really liking the “Legion x Ouran” idea lately. XD *shot*Q - A fandom you’ve abandoned and why.Hm… I don’t think there are any I’ve really “abandoned”, per se. Most of them are still there, just not at the forefront anymore.R - Which friendship/platonic relationship is your favorite in fandom?All the relationships in Kagepro *shot*S - Show us an example of your personal headcanon (prompts optional but encouraged)Molly Hale from the third movie is the god of the Pokémon world. Just… don’t ask lol.T - Do you have any hard and fast headcanons that you will die defending?Already answered, but I’ll add a few of my favorites for DCAU TimSteph:1) Tim cuts his own hair after RotJ (or rather just lets it grow long) since he doesn’t trust anyone else with sharp objects around him. Steph is the first person he allows to trim his hair for him (even though she has no experience with it either), since I imagine him feeling comfortable enough around her that he even falls asleep like Sousuke does with Chidori in Full Metal Panic! The Second Raid. (For context, he was raised as a soldier from an early age and this is what happened when they tried to take him to a salon. Played for laughs, but probably an accurate portrayal of people suffering from anxiety/PTSD having to deal with mundane tasks that trigger them.)

2) Similarly, Steph plays piano to help calm Tim down whenever he’s having a panic attack.3) After RotJ Tim refuses to wear red for a long time until Steph knits him a red scarf and tells him it “suits him” bc red is the color of heroes.

As an aside, I also recently like the idea that Logan was at Lex’s party in the DCEU and saw Bruce and Diana together, based on this playlist that I made. U - Three favorite characters from three different fandoms, and why they’re your favorites.Gonna talk about a few I don’t mention too often nowadays.

1) Link from The Legend of ZeldaLink will forever be my greatest true love. He’s the first real “hero” I believed in, and he honestly changed my life at one point to actually want to be a better person. While that faith has faded and I don’t think I can ever reach his example, I still wish I had that kind of courage and kindness - or at least be able to inspire others in the same way he did me.2) Meroko Yui from Full Moon wo SagashiteIf Link was the first (and only) person I ever truly fell in love with, Meroko was the one who taught me what “true love” was in the first place. I won’t say too much since I still sincerely hope you will check out the series someday, but suffice to say there’s a scene towards the end where she makes a choice that shows how much she has personally grown, and come to understand what it really means to “love” someone wholeheartedly.

3) Gary Oak from PokémonThis is a bit of an odd one, but Gary is a character I related to a lot when I was an adolescent since, of the main series cast, he was the first and one of few to really change his “status quo” by quitting training and deciding to become a researcher instead. In my eyes it seemed like a shockingly conscious choice to “grow up” in a world where you can ostensibly remain a “child” forever, and I both admired and deplored him for it (especially at that tender transitory age I was going through at the time, where it feels like you’re being forced to “become an adult” whether you want to or not).

V - Which character do you relate to most?Already answered.W - A trope which you are virtually certain to hate in any fandom.Romance in general is really not my thing, so I dislike when it’s the focus/the writers feel the need to pair every character. I’d rather leave things open-ended most of the time.X - A trope which you are almost certain to love in any fandom.Family/friendship stories + tragic adopted children wanting to be heroesY - What are your secondhand fandoms (i.e., fandoms you aren’t in personally but are tangentially familiar with because your friends/people on your dash are in them)?X-Men, Kingdom Hearts, Dangan Ronpa, Fate/Stay Night, Various Magical Girl series, Various RPG Horror games

Z - Just ramble about something fan-related, go go go! (Prompts optional but encouraged.)I feel like I’ve rambled enough already phew. OTL Thanks for asking though. =P

Story Time || Ross MacDonald Oneshot

Word Count: 2,010 Summary: Upon bringing your young son to the bookstore with you, you hear a man’s voice that catches the attention of you both. Author’s Note: Major thanks to @u2bibliophile for the lovely idea <3 It was so cute and fun to write. Also the book Ross reads in this is Chicka Chicka Boom Boom. I’ve linked the music version I document in the story. Highly recommend listening to it when the time comes! Be sure to throw in a like or comment if you liked it! I love seeing feedback from you all. Please feel free to read my other work here! Enjoy!

“Mommy, I want this book!”

You had heard it all day. Your little one’s voice, still high and childlike, yet as annoying as a little boy’s voice ever could be. He wasn’t usually a bad kid - no, usually Carter maintained the same calm demeanor that had drawn you to his father. That is, before he abandoned you during your pregnancy for someone who was very much not pregnant and less of a burden. You would never let Carter get that way. Though, you supposed in moments like this where he didn’t listen to you and kept whining, he was that way to some extent. It made you despise it more.

“Carter, sweetie, we can’t get that book. Mommy has to go get a book for her work. We don’t have the money.”

“But mom!”

“Not today,” you sighed, shaking your head. As much as it hurt to tell him no, you had to. You really did not have the money, and the book he had his eyes on contained actual toys attached to it in a big set. You were sure it would be expensive, however much it was. You simply couldn’t afford it, not when your own book would be its own fortune. Taking Carter’s hand, you brought him back towards the more education-based books. They were far less interesting to the little blonde boy. No four year old could find interest in thick, pictureless books. He didn’t see any pretty colors or cool figures. It might as well have been pure nothingness in front of him. He grumbled and acted sluggish as you brought him to your specific section. A loud sigh voiced his displeasure. You gave him a sympathetic smile as you pulled one of the books off the shelf.

“I know buddy, it’s boring. I’m almost done, and then we can go home and play. Alright?”

He hardly looked satisfied. But, it was enough to make him quiet, and that was good enough for you. You started filing through the books, until finally after about ten minutes of looking, you got what you needed. Picking Carter up off the ground where he had decided to sit and pout, you began making your way through the store. Though you were a bit wary to move past where Carter had seen the book set he wanted, he kept his calm. You chalked it up to him wanted to go home, which frankly you could not blame him for. The quieter he was, the faster you could get him home. But then, just as you were about to make your way to the checkout counter, music started to play. Acoustic guitar music that caught your little boy’s attention in mere seconds. Grinning from ear to ear, he pulled at your shirt and pointed over to its source, which of course just had to be the section with his toy book.

“Mommy, I wanna’ hear the music!”

“Carter, I don’t know if we-”

“Pleeeeease?”

You sighed. You had been a pretty mean mom to him, dragging him around and refusing to buy anything for his time and patience. This was the least thing you could do. Besides, it was free to listen to music. If it got Carter excited, who were you to stop him? Taking his hand, you gave in and walked him over. He giggled and thanked you as profusely as any excited four year old could. As you made your way over, the sound of a really deep voice filled the air. A few other voices giggled around him, and when you got close enough, you noticed that these voices belonged to three handsome men, friends of the one responsible for the acoustic sounds. A small crowd of kids were surrounding them, eagerly watching the four as their parents waited off to the side. Whoever these men were, they seemed important. You were pretty fond of the one with the guitar, yourself. He laughed and then scratched at his beard.

“I was only joking that I’d give everyone a concert, but now that I’ve got a crowd, I suppose I might as well perform something for them anyway.”

“You better,” the guy with curly black hair laughed, gazing out at the kids, “the little ones look ready to hear some music.”

“Alright then,” he spoke, smiling their way, “do any of you kids have a song you want me to sing?”

The taller of the three standing giggled, saying “Old MacDonald should do the trick” to the visible chagrin of the bearded boy. The other two joined in on the giggles, along with some parents. Apparently, these boys definitely were famous. And jokesters, apparently.

“Sir?”

All eyes fell on your boy, Carter, standing right in front of you with a little blush but excitement evident in his face. You blushed as the bearded guy first looked to you before gazing Carter’s way. Giving him a soft smile, he gestured for him to speak.

“Can you sing the song from the book my mommy usually sings to me?”

The man grinned even brighter. “Of course! What book does she sing to you?”

“Chicka Chicka Boom Boom.”

A few kids giggled at the choice, but the man held his smile. He fiddled a bit with his guitar and then began strumming it to the all too familiar tune. He threw Carter a wink.

“Of course, buddy. That’s a throwback to my childhood! We’re all about as old as it is, anyway. I know it by heart because of that, if I’m being honest. I’d love to sing it for you.”

“Yay!”

Clearing his throat, he began to strum louder, growing rather animated facially.

“A told B, and B told C, "I'll meet you at the top of the coconut tree." "Wheee!" said D to E F G, "I'll beat you to the top of the coconut tree." Chicka chicka boom boom! Will there be enough room? Here comes H up the coconut tree, and I and J and tag-along K, all on their way up the coconut tree. Chicka chicka boom boom! Will there be enough room? Look who's coming! L M N O P! And Q R S! And T U V! Still more - W! And X Y Z! The whole alphabet up the - Oh, no!”

The other boys all laughed as he pretended to fall off of his seat, flailing about. The kids also got a kick out of it, including your little Carter, who had been trying his best to mouth along to the song as he danced to it. You smiled and ruffled up his hair, which got a smile from both Carter and the man up front. He continued.

”Chicka chicka... BOOM! BOOM! Skit skat skoodle doot. Flip flop flee. Everybody running to the coconut tree. Mamas and papas and uncles and aunts hug their little dears, then dust their pants. "Help us up," cried A B C. Next from the pileup skinned-knee D, and stubbed-toe E and patched-up F. Then comes G all out of breath. H is tangled up with I. J and K are about to cry. L is knotted like a tie. M is looped. N is stopped. O is twisted alley-oop. Skit skat skoodle doot. Flip flop flee. Look who's coming! It's black-eyed P, Q R S, and loose-tooth T. Then U V W wiggle-jiggle free. Last to come X Y Z. And the sun goes down on the coconut tree... But - chicka chicka boom boom! Look, there's a full moon. A is out of bed, and this is what he said, "Dare double dare, you can't catch me. I'll beat you to the top of the coconut tree." Chicka chicka BOOM! BOOM! Chicka chicka BOOM! BOOM!”

And with that, the song was done. Everyone clapped and cheered, the man bowing for the kids and getting patted on the back by his friends. You clapped as well, smiling at him and the way your little boy clapped and cheered as loud as he normally did for his favorite TV shows, or any superhero movie you let him watch. His little blonde mop ran up to the man and hugged him tight. You blushed, only able to watch the adorable sight through your fingers. The man waved and beckoned you to come over, the curly haired boy telling everyone thank you for coming and something about the year ‘1975’. Moving forward, you came and picked Carter up, the little boy still all smiles at the man. You held out your hand.

“{Y/N},” you told him kindly, “it’s a pleasure to meet you.”

“It’s a pleasure to meet you as well,” he replied, grinning back at Carter, “I’m Ross. Who’s this little guy?”

“Carter.”

“Nice to meet you, Carter,” he spoke in the most sweet voice you had ever heard a man use. “You’re quite a handsome lad.”

“What do you say, love?”

“Thank you Mr. Ross,” he replied, polite just like you raised him. Ross reached and messed with his hair, causing him to giggle. “I really like how each letter had..had a different voice!”

Ross smiled. “Thank you! My family always did that for me when I was your age,” he added, poking at Carter’s chest. Carter giggled and squirmed in your arms, making you laugh and have to set him down. Once his feet touched the floor, he was off playing with the other kids sticking around in the area. You shook your head.

“He seems like a firecracker, that one.”

“You have no idea.”

“I’m assuming he has his father’s hair?”

You bit your lip. His father. “Yeah, he does. Thankfully, he doesn’t have much more of the guy.”

“Bad father?”

“You have no idea. He’s out of Carter’s life probably for the best.”

Ross’ expression softened. “I’m sorry. Genuinely. He deserves a good dad. But, from how polite and sweet he is, I see he has a good mother to back him up.”

Blushing, you felt like a silly schoolgirl around her crush. Apparently his voice wasn’t the only thing that was smooth. “Thank you. I’m sure I’ll find someone good for him sooner or later. I try my best to keep him happy in the meantime.”

“You’re doing a wonderful job.”

“Thank you.”

“Look...I hate being so blunt but...you’re a beautiful woman,” Ross rambled nervously, “ and I adore your child. I would really like to get to know you and, if I could be so lucky, him, better. Would you want to go get dinner sometime? My treat?”

You smiled and reached to rub his arm, getting him to look at you. The smile he gave back to you when meeting your eyes lit up your world. “I would love to. And, eventually, we would love to as well. Do you want to exchange numbers?”

“It would be my pleasure.”

You quickly did. Upon receiving your phone back, you found out that his last name was MacDonald, hence the taller man’s joke about ‘Old MacDonald’. You smiled at it before pocketing your phone and calling Carter back over. He jogged over and then held his hands up, allowing you to pick him up and hold him at your side.

“Say goodbye to Mr. Ross, Carter.”

“Bye-bye,” he said sweetly, waving to Ross. Ross waved back, throwing a grin back to his friends who were watching quietly a bit away.

“Bye, little guy.”

“See you later Ross,” you said to him, smiling behind your blush. “I’ll text you when I’m free for dinner, yeah?”

Ross nodded. “Yeah, that sounds wonderful. You two get home safely.”

“Same to you.”

With one final wave, you turned and went back over to the checkout counter. After quickly buying your book, you headed out with Carter to your car. As you went to buckle him into his booster seat, Carter tapped you on the arm.

“Mommy?”

Pulling back to look at him, you cocked your head to the side. “What, love?”

“I really like Mr. Ross.”

You smiled. “You know what? I do too, buddy.”

The Robins x reader w/ low body positivity

a/n: I did some like scenarios (I guess that’s what you would call it idk) of the robins because one of my friends was feeling a bit down about his body(yes, I’m saying that males get self conscious of their bodies too which so many people have the misconception that they don’t) and I decided to make some robin scenarios for anybody else out there who was feeling a bit down about their bodies and I want all of you to know that you are beautiful just the way you are. (I know some parts were longer than others and I’m sorry but I hope they’re all equally lovable.)

(side note: I didn’t do Stephanie Brown even though she was a robin at one point because most people know her more as batgirl rather than robin and also the fact that she wasn’t even really robin for that long of a time so I decided to not put her in this but if someone wants me to do her I’d be glad to do it.)

(another fucking side note: This post is quite long and I’m so sorry but it’s because I added all the robins. Sorry again, if its like so long and annoying. It’s just easier for me to upload it all at one time but I’ll post them separately if it’s more convenient for others.)

Dick Grayson

You were standing in the mirror getting ready for a night out with your friends as a pair of arms wrapped around your waist. Before you could stop yourself the words, “Do I look fat?” slipped out of your mouth. Dick’s arms slacked a little as he looked into the mirror at your face. “What?” he asked with a slightly amused look. “Never mind. Forget what I said. It doesn’t matter.” “No no no. It does matter. Why would you think that?” He grabbed your wrist and turned you around saying, “You look gorgeous. And besides you’re the sweetest, hottest person I’ve met, (y/n).” Then, he proceeded to press kisses along your jawline. You felt your cheeks burn a bright red as he looked into your eyes sweetly and said, “You know we can do other fun things here, rather going out today.” “No, I made a reservation, Dick. But maybe, afterwards we can have a little dessert.” you said seductively while walking out the room. *later after dinner* “This isn’t the type of dessert I thought you were, (y/n).” you heard Dick whine for the 2nd time. “It’s not my fault you have a naughty mind.” You said while slowly licking your spoon to free it of the rest of your ice cream. Dick rolled his eyes as he tried to make a move on you for the 4th time while running his hands up your thighs and whispering your name into your ear softly. You guys did have a fun night though after dessert *wink wink*

Jason Todd

You were running your hands up and down your body tracing your self conscious spots. Jason came out in his swimming trunks and grabbed the bag that you had pre-packed from last night. “Come on, (y/n). We have to start going. I wanna kick Dick’s butt at volleyball when we get to the beach.” You smiled softly as you nodded and grabbed your sandals and a cover up. “Is Alfred picking us up?” “Yup, Bruce told me that they should be arriving here in about 5 minutes.” Jason pressed a kiss to your cheek and he placed his free hand on your ass. *at the beach* “You sure you don’t wanna take that off and go for a swim or join us in volleyball?” Jason asked you for the millionth time. “No, I’m fine.” You whispered as you looked around at the girls who had joined the family’s game of volleyball. “At least take off that cover up. You look like you’re burning.” Jason’s voice started to change into a sound of worry and slight irritation at your stubbornness. You shook your head while sighing and crossed your arms like a child who was rebelling. Jason took a seat next to you and pulled your cover up off and started putting more sunscreen on you. “Okay, if you don’t wanna play I’ll leave you alone but if this is because you feel self conscious then I’ll keep bugging you till the day ends.” he said while puffing out a deep breath. “You look great, y/n.” He said before letting out a frustrated sigh and started again, “I suck at this. I just want you to know that you’re hot, y/n. Especially, at night when we play rumble.” he chuckled softly at your red face and kissed your collarbone then he got up to go play volleyball again. “Hey, I’m back guys.” he yelled out cheerfully as he hit a ball out of his face and towards Tim’s face. You smiled at him and looked around as you thought “How did I get so lucky with a dumbass like him?” Then, you went out onto the sand as a ball flew past your face by inches. “Oh, it’s on, Drake.”

Tim Drake

Tim was typing away on his computer as you read over his shoulder. “Is it an essay?” “Yeah, it has to be 5 pages.” he said without even looking up at you. You smiled at the way that his eyebrows furrowed when he was concentrating, and the frustrated look that came upon his face when he was trying to think of a good word to use. You left the room quietly and went to the kitchen to make Tim and yourself some food. You fixed (y/f/f) and placed it on a plate. You walked back into the room and placed the food in front of Tim. “You should take a little rest, Tim.” He smiled up into your (e/c) and then he kissed your wrist. You watched him eat and just picked at your own food and took small bites. “Are you not hungry?” “Uhhh. No not really.” He looked into your eyes as he tried to see if you were telling the truth. You met his eyes as he looked away. “You always (n/h) when you’re lying or nervous. Also, you think I haven’t noticed that you pick at your food a lot lately.” You laughed and said, “Of course. I wouldn’t be able to fool one of the best detectives.” He smiled softly and kissed the space between your lips and jaw. “You’re perfect to me, y/n. I….um...I” Tim looked at you and stroked him thumb on your hand. “Tim?” you asked getting concerned. “I love you, y/n. Why would you think that you’re not pretty or whatever.” You smiled as he took another bite of the food and you kissed his forehead as you said, “This is why I love you. You adorkable twat.” Tim rolled his eyes slightly as he pinched your cheeks. “I’m gonna go back to my paper.”

Carrie Kelley

(side note: I don’t really know that much about Carrie’s character so if I suck ass on this one, I’m sorry. Also, this is like the millionth side note.)

You walked past Carrie as she was packing for a small camping trip that she was having at one of her friend’s backyards. “Hey, do you know where my shirt is? You know the one that has a whole bunch of holes in it but I still wear it.” You yelled in the direction where she was. “Uhhhh. I don’t think so. Maybe you left it in the laundry?” she yelled back. “Why are you looking for it?” You walked into the doorway of her room and said, “I was gonna wear it to go workout. Or at least look like I went working out.” She laughed slightly at your statement. “I wish I was more like you, Carrie.” you said, “You’re cute, fit, and….just everything.” Carrie looked up at you in surprise and laughed a little. “You’re perfect too, y/n” She started to stand up and grabbed both of you wrists. “You’re cute, pretty, awesome, great, and so much more that even I can’t name them all.” You smiled at her comment as she pulled hair out of your face. “Thanks. I don’t know what I’d do without you.” “Nothing. Absolutely nothing because we’re like puzzles. Without us together nothing will be right because we won’t make the picture. I love you and you should know that. You’re gorgeous.” Your face started to light up like a red stoplight and you stroked her cheek in appreciation as you pulled her into a soft kiss.

Damian Wayne

(side side note: so, (b/f) means best friend and (l/f/t) means least favorite teacher. (e/c) means eye color.

You came back from the day's class and walked into the apartment that you shared with your (b/f). “Hey, babe.” your friend called out to you as she pulled you into a one sided hug. “Hey.” You proceeded to drag yourself to your room in a tired feat. “God, I hate (l/f/t). He always gives a pile of homework that isn’t even related to the actual class.” You started taking your clothes off and sighed as the air passed your skin in a slight breeze. “Is that so? Is the teacher doing his job correctly?” you heard a voice come out from inside your closet. Your whole body froze with goosebumps as you grabbed your sandal from the ground. “Who the hell are you?” you questioned as you pulled open the door and got into a defensive stance. Your boyfriend Damian Wayne pulled you into a hug as he spinned(a/n: is spinned even correct. IDK anymore at this point. I’m tired) you around and dipped you. “Really? A sandal. Now, I know you can do better than that, y/n.” He let out a soft chuckle as you struggled slightly and sat on the edge of your slightly messy bed. Damian’s face went red as he noticed your half naked state and looked away. “Put some clothes on.” You looked down at your bare skin and grabbed a random shirt on the ground in embarrassment. “You ready to head out, my love?” Damian asked from outside the room. You looked at your outfit one last time before stepping out the door. *at fancy restaurant* Your (b/f) was laughing with their s/o as you and Damian slipped into your own conversation. Damian’s gaze looked past yours towards a blonde girl in the back of the room. She was tall, skinny with perfect skin. She kept winking and making smoochy faces at Damian. Damian’s hand moved to your thigh and he smiled at you. “Isn’t she pretty?” you asked looking at the thigh that Damian’s hand was resting on. “Huh?” Damian looked down at your (e/c) eyes and stroked your hair. “See. You can’t even answer, Damian.” “No. It’s just that it’s so startling that you would think that. You’re beautiful. At least better than her I mean she’s making moves on me who is clearly taken by a beautiful beast like you. You make me feel more attached to life, my love.” He pulled your lips to his in a gentle gesture as your (b/f) suddenly burst out laughing and said, “Suck the food not each other’s faces guys. At least wait till we’re home you two.” You pulled your quickly reddening face away from Damian’s. *later that night* You and Damian just sat in you room and watched movies that you liked in a peaceful silence that couldn’t be anymore perfect than you imagined.

{Special} College!AU Kihyun

major: drama + classics (concentration: greek civilization)

minor: ancient greek

sports: is running around campus in a toga considered a sport? he did that once as a part of an impromptu production,,,,,,

clubs: poets society, theater club, hosts the bi-yearly ‘on campus olympics’, playwrights united, so many tbh,,,,,,

kihyun’s love for drama comes from his love for greek mythology. it all started with him watching an old film version of the odyssey when he was ten and afterwards he couldn’t stop parading around the street asking everyone to call him “odysseus ruler of ithaca”

but instead of going into film as a major, kihyun had started reading the playwrights of sophocles, euripides, and agathon and had fallen for the sheer madness of greek tragedy

his love for both acting, writing, and the culture of ancient greece made him want to learn the language (although he is rather clumsy with it) but inevitably he ended up majoring in both drama and the classics

bringing together the two things he loves most: being on stage himself, while also learning about the art of his favorite kind of plays

and everyone in the drama major agrees that if they ever put on productions based off ancient greek plays that kihyun HAS to be the main role -

like for their production of hamlet, kihyun was fine playing horatio - he didn’t have to be the prince but when they put on oedipus rex well,,,,,let’s just say there was no question kihyun wanted the role

mostly because in the play oedipus ends up blind and kihyun came into practice with a blindfold on and proceeded to try and prove he could still do everything without seeing anything,,,,he ended up in the nurses office buT HEY HE GOT THE ROLE

all his classes that focus on playwriting / scripts kihyun has this need to only write twists on greek mythology, or make up stories using the gods

and in costume design he’s always like “my sketches are based on artemis!! see the dress is short, but comfortable with nature-themed colors because artemis was the goddess of the hunt-”

and you know the way some people are harry potter nerds or ,,,, gamers ,,,,, or you know kpop fans,,,,, kihyun is a fan of ancient greece. to put it simply

and he’s really smart about the civilization, he knows so many facts and so many philosophers and writers and political figures - even though it might seem like he’s a little messy at times

which believe me, kihyun can give off the messy feeling because he’s really easily frustrated by a A LOT of things. like he always gets too much on his schedule and then fusses about how he can’t finish

and minhyuk loves LOVES L O V E S to tease kihyun when kihyun is trying to focus on his work

and it ends up with kihyun chasing minhyuk around the library waving around his copy of ‘hippolytus’ like a weapon

but also kihyun always drags minhyuk into his room to read through lines with him or give him his opinion on kihyun’s acting

and minhyuk is like whY ME ASK SHOWNU and kihyun is like i can’t shownu’s only reaction is ‘good’ ‘nice’ ‘very pleasing’

like minhyuk and kihyun are always bickering if they’re in the same room and minhyuk’s always like ROFL YOU’RE SO MAD YOUR EARS TURNED RED!!!! and kihyun is like THEY DID NOT CO M E HERE SO I CAN WHOOP-

but in the end minhyuk is always one of the first people kihyun invites to his productions and it’s cute it’s like cats and dogs w/them

on the other hand, with everyone else kihyun is sooooooo sly and he’s always like,,,,,like he always knows everyones secrets and no one knows how

like he leaned over to jooheon once and was like “i heard you failed your test in global finance” and jooheon’s fry fell out of his mouth because he was like WHO TOLD YOU I SHREDDED THAT TEST and kihyun is just like (-----: heard it thru the grapevine~

also jooheon is just an easy target for kihyun because he always slips up and tells kihyun exactly what he wants to know and everyone is like kihyun let him live and kihyun is like hehehehe,,,,NO

tries to matchmake all his friends on blind dates and stuff because he calls himself the ‘modern day eros’

it flops most of the time and everyone in monsta x is like stop trying to wingman us and kihyun is like that’s why you’re all single because you won’t listen to me - the actual god of love

and even though kihyun seems like this responsible, on-top of his work kind of person there are times where,,,,,,,that isn’t very true

because college makes people doubt their abilities and kihyun has never been the kind of person who’d go around asking for help or advice,,,he always just gives his support

but when he needs it most ??? he shuts down

and you learn this because every time you’ve ever seen kihyun,,,,you’ve seen the happy and excitable kihyun. the kihyun who laughs with his whole body, who speaks his lines with so much emotion that people C R Y, who is always shining on and off stage

you’ve seen him like this ever since you started volunteering to paint backgrounds for the theater club

and never once,,,,had you see him look sad. you’d seen him angrily yelling out when things were getting messed up, how he gets a little on edge when people keep messing up lines,,,,,maybe even the way his ears get red when he’s rushing to get rehearsal started but,,,,,,

sad??? nope

so you can only describe it as pure shock when you think that everyone has gone for the day and you’ve set up the large white banner that you have to paint for an upcoming production but as you step back inside the dark theater with buckets of paints you hear ??? crying

and it isn’t like sobbing or anything but you hear someone sniffle

and you consider like turning around and leaving them in peace, but when you catch a glimpse of the pink hair,,,,,,,,the pink hair of the only person on campus who has that bright of a dye job

you freeze and think “kihyun?”

and at first you don’t believe it because no way. someone so outspoken and charismatic wouldn’t seclude themselves to crying in the theater ,,,,,

but then you see him get up from the corner he’s slumped again, a liter of paper scraps making a ring around his feet

and that’s when you notice that you’ve locked eyes. your wide, confused ones staring into kihyun’s that are rimmed with redness and the tear stains down his cheeks glisten even so far away

something about it leaves you even more shocked ,,,,, because even like this kihyun is handsome. hauntingly handsome,,,,,,wiping at his face with his sleeves and desperately moving his eyes away from yours

and you think he’s just going to run past you. leave

but he seems stuck too

and for a while you two just stand there in a silence broken only by kihyun sniffling every now and then and you shifting the paint can in your hands

and then you hear him go “im sorry, this is painfully awkward for you isn’t it?”

something sounds a bit bitter in his voice,,, what it is you don’t know ? but you transfix your stare and shake your head simply going “no. you’re the one that looks like you’re going through something painful”

kihyun’s head snaps up to look back at you and again,,,,,,something about the browns of his eyes seem illuminated and glassy

he bites back his lip but sadly drops his shoulders “you’re right. it is painful.”

now it probably isn’t your place to go around meddling into his business, but it’s never nice to leave someone crying alone without at least trying to extend a helping hand so shakily you step forward. setting down your can of paint you keep your eyes on him

“what’s wrong?”

kihyun seems to break at the sound of your question. a visible shiver runs down his body and before you know it he’s back to his knees on the floor, picking up the scraps of paper and crumpling them in his hand

without really knowing why you rush over and try to pull the scraps from him. you unravel one and read the disjointed sentences, the obvious dialogue mixed in with stage commands

it’s a script,,,,,,for a play

putting together a couple of more scraps you make out names like ‘aphrodite’ and ‘eros’. the names of ancient greek cities. words you can’t decipher but that are most obviously distinct of an old langue

you look up at kihyun and he stares blankly at the paper before clenching his teeth

“they won’t approve it. greek tragedy isn’t popular in our time, it’s only meant to be studied.” you tilt your head and kihyun continues with a sigh

“every time we have to submit a draft, the professor gives it back. says, “kihyun stop writing tragedies. stop putting in obscure greek references. kihyun,,,,,,,,,,,do something more modern.” but i don’t want to. im not majoring in modern theater. im majoring in the classics. so what if i want to rewrite them. so what if i want to make a play about ancient gods no one cares about. i care about them. i ,,,,,,,,”

he stops and his gaze meets yours. your trying to piece the paper back, you want to read the scene but you can’t. it’s so ripped up

kihyun takes the paper and without looking at it recites that characters lines. he sets the place for you, olympus and than a city off the skirts of athens. you listen, enchanted at how he’s added all this to his memory. the smallest details, the expression on his characters faces

it’s only one scene that he recites aloud, but you edge closer and ask “is there more?”

kihyun lets out a shallow laugh and shakes his head “the professor said to give it up. i need to re-write something more to their taste.

you sit back on your heels and then get up, taking the paint can beside your feet and dipping it in a sand colored mix, you begin to paint a long line

kihyun watches and blinks “what is that?”

you turn to him and smile “ancient greek cities had columns right?you mentioned the outskirts of athens-”

kihyun gets up and puts his hand over your wrist. he shakes his head and goes “you don’t have to.”

but you yank your hand and continue to paint. “i want to.”

for a couple of minutes you continue to paint, trying to imagine the backdrop kihyun described as best you can.

“what about the background you’re supposed to actually be drawing?” he asks and you run your free hand through your hair to push it back from your eyes

“ill do it after. right now, i want to paint this. i want to see a part of your play in front of my eyes.”

kihyun seems taken aback but he sees your determination. he steps back and you think he’s going to leave, maybe find you inarguable and give up

but then you hear him walk back and forth, taking in your painting so far and then a smile pulls at his lips

“well ok see the column, cover it in slight vine. there’s also a market scene in my play so we should add in stalls and maybe an animal or two-”

you and kihyun paint for hours. maybe three. maybe four. you and kihyun. alone.

you both end up with stained hands, sweat on your foreheads, and a half finished piece of artwork

kihyun grins and turns to you, “thank you.”

you shrug your shoulders, the overalls your wearing have long been stained with paint but now there’s even more and you feel bad because kihyun’s gotten his fancy looking sweater dirty but he doesn’t look like he cares at all

he’s looking at the background with shining eyes and you’re happy because you can see that the redness from crying is gone, that bitter tone in his voice is gone

and you’re looking at the passionate boy you’ve always found so mesmerizing again

but as you two realized it’s getting late you set out the large banner to dry in a vacant part of the backstage. kihyun suddenly takes your hand and pushes his phone into it

“put in your name and contact so we can meet up and finish this?”

you gladly oblige and kihyun reads your name aloud when you’re done, almost like he’s testing it out as a line to read on stage. you feel a slight blush cross your cheeks when he says it so boldly but you hide it with a “hopefully this all drys over night.”

kihyun walks out of the theater with you, insisting that he hold half the empty paint cans and a brush between his teeth that makes you laugh

as you wave goodbye and go separate ways the warmness in your heart stays with you all the way to your dorm

the next day,,,,,,,,,,,,that warmness is gone

because the director of the play you were supposed to draw the background for is livid to see that instead of their european snowy mountains request,,,,,,you’ve drown an ancient greek cityscape

“are you an idiot? can you not listen to directions? HAVE YOU EVEN READ THE PLAY? this isn’t some bullshit remake of ‘Medea’. throw this out no one is going to use it!”

the yelling makes you flinch and you reluctantly try to roll the banner up but the director puts a hand in your way

“what are you doing? rip this to shreds, it’s garbage.”

you clench your jaw and stand up, “it’s not garbage. it’s for another play. i need to make sure not to ruin it.”

with a cocked eyebrow the director folds their hands and snorts “what other play? since when were there any greek productions approved by the theater club? no one wants to s-”

“i want to see it. i want to see my friends greek tragedy and im not going to ruin the art we worked hard on so if you can please shut up and move your hand. ill get to work on your background, practice for it doesn’t even start till next week.”

passing the director whose looking at you with an open mouth you roll the banner up and heave it into your hands. it’s long and heavy, but you figure you’ll be fine if you walk slow

but just before you do, another set of hands wraps around the big roll of paper and you see a familiar pink head stick out from the side

“need help?”

you grin at kihyun and the two of you lift up the unfinished background. the director mutters something about of COURSE kihyun wants to put on a play copying the tragedies and it takes everything in you not to snap at them

kihyun’s reassuring smile keeps you stable and the two of you walk out of the theater and kihyun leans the rolled up paper against the wall

“well, i guess ill keep it in my dorm. although im not sure my roommate will be happy about it,,,,,,then again shownu never really cares that much.”

you apologize but kihyun leans over to ruffle your hair

“why are you sorry? i should apologize for distracting you from making that other background. that asshole really went off on you - do you think you can just quit and permanently work for me?”

you know he’s half-joking but you play with the idea in your head for a minute before putting your hands on your sides and going “you know what, i think i will quit.”

and with that you turn on your heel, back into the theater before kihyun can stop you, and you shout “i QUIT”

before returning to kihyun whose waiting outside with his eyes the size of the moon

“you- why- you”

you laugh and shrug “i don’t want to work for an asshole, might as well put my skill to good use for people who actually appreciate it.”

kihyun bites back a big grin and throws his arm around your shoulder, pulling you into him suddenly and squeezing

“you know i owe you a lot!” you blush because he’s warm, his chest is solid and you fit so perfectly into the crook of his hand but you just manage to shadow it with another chuckle “you do! anyway, you need to finish writing the play,,,,,,”

kihyun lets you go and rummages around in his backpack, pulling out a thick stack of papers

“i spent all night on it. i mean i already had half done, but i actually finished it. you really motivated me.”

the words are simple but they make you heat up again and you take the stack, eager to flip through it and finally read the whole thing. kihyun somehow hauls the entire roll of paper onto his back and says he’ll call you when he’s free so you two can finish this up and so you can tell him what you think of the play. you nod and watch as he struggles across the quad,,,,,,,

you hold the play in your hands and think,,,,,it’s worth it. for him, it’s worth it.

you stay up reading it, even neglecting some studying to read it twice. from what you can figure out it’s a play on an greek romance tragedy where aphrodite meddles between a young girl and her secret lover,,,,,,,it’s kind of corny in some parts and over dramatic,,,but that’s the style that suits kihyun the best

and in the morning as you’re leaving for your first class you get a call

kihyun’s excited voice on the other line calls your name and he says that if you have some free time to meet him in the art department soon.

when you show up at the room kihyun told you about you see that all the desks are pushed against the wall and your unfinished background is spread on the floor surrounded by paint cans and brushes. kihyun is already on his knees, painting, wiping sweat away with one hand

but once he realizes you’ve come in he jumps to his feet and tugs you over by the wrist chattering about what he wants to add into the painting.

you guys paint together for horus, kihyun keeping the mood happy with jokes and stories and telling you more about the play he has in mind

at some point you two are sitting close together, shoulders basically rubbing up against each other

when kihyun leans over and you feel the tickle of a brush on your skin

and you look down to see kihyun painting a smiley face on your forearm

you retaliate by drawing a mustache on for him

he laughs and draws swirls on your cheeks

and the background is forgotten for a while as you both paint little things on one and other

kihyun covers you crooked flowers and scribbles of lines and you try to draw whiskers on his nose

and ,,,,,,,,, then you know kihyun is leaning in close

the brush he has is too big so he uses his finger to draw a pink petal on your forehead but then he makes the (good,,,,verY GOOD) mistake of looking into your eyes

and it’s still early afternoon with the sun peaking thru the blinds

of the empty classroom,,,,,

except,,,,,for you two,,,,,,,,,,

and your eyes are like,,,,,,,,,,,the most beautiful thing kihyun has seen in his entire life,,,,,your breathing both slowed,,,,,,,,your mouths inches apart,,,,,literally,,,,,

and both of you are thinking the same thing which is like ‘how soft are their lips,,,,,’

BUT ALAS NEITHER OF YOU DO ANYTHING AND INSTEAD PULL AWAY GOING BACK TO WORK EMBARASSED AS HELL

except kihyun cannot stop thinking about it and you keep touching your lips every second but ,,,,,,,,

kihyun just stops and goes “looks like we’re almost done!” in an effort to break the awkward air and you nod, adding some final details

and finally you get up and kihyun says you can leave it here to dry since no one is using this room today

and you don’t know why,,,,maybe it’s the leftover embarrassment, but you get your things and tell kihyun you have to go,,,,

but before you can make your escape kihyun calls out

“are you going to come and see my play?”

and you gasp because holy shit did he get it approved by the theater club????

but kihyun shakes his head and you’re like then how-??? and kihyun is like “just promise me, when i call you with an invitation you’ll show up right?”

and he puts out his pinkie and you’re like a bit confused but you link yours with his and promise

and kihyun reaches out like he’s going to ruffle your hair again but pulls back

and you leave,,,,,,,,,thinking about how kihyun is going to manage to pull off a play without the club but also,,,,,

your fingers touch your lips again,,,,,,but you’re like sTOP thinking about it let’s go do some homework or something instead!!!

ofc kihyun is in the room alone, staring down at the finished piece with his own hand over his mouth

before screaming out “YOO KIHYUN YOU ARE AN I D I O T” at himself and almost falling forward onto the damn background

but also like ,,,,,, two weeks passes and you don’t hear from kihyun. like you see him running around campus doing his usual thing, you see him teasing that other guy jooheon and hanging out with minhyuk

but everytime he turns and you think he might see you,,,,you duck behind a tree or pull up your hood

because ok you’re not going to admit it but,,,,,,,,,,,,you kind of are still embarrassed about the whole art room incident but,,,,,,you honestly though kihyun would have said or done something by now to show you it was all ok????

and you know it’s stubborn to not just text or call him first but you just caNT

and after it edges on three weeks you think well it isn’t worth it to care anymore. kihyun needed you around because you helped him with the painting. it didn’t really matter

but as you’re sitting in your dorm, watching some drama on your laptop your phone goes off and mindlessly you pick up w/o looking at the caller ID

and on the other line is,,,,,kihyun

who goes “you said you’d come if i invited you right? can you come down to the west dorms?”

and you sit up, almost knocking your laptop off your feet and you’re like “uh oh yes give me 5 minutes” and you can practically hear kihyun’s smile on the other end when he’s like ok great!

and that’s how you end up in kihyuns dorm,,,,,,, staring at the makeshift stage he’s made out of blankets on the floor and the familiar background you both painted taped onto his wall

and you’re not sure where kihyun is, but you can hear voices from the bathroom and suddenly ????? shownu comes out

wearing what you presume is a night sheet as a toga

and he starts off talking about his “daughter” who can’t find love and instantly you realize this is ,,,,, this is the script you read by kihyun

and then the ‘daughter’ runs out. it’s changkyun in a wig

followed by mischievous aphrodite played by minhyuk in another wig and a crown made out of plastic flowers

and the narrator in the back, who sits down in the corner is a very tired looking hyungwon

followed by the dashing young lover,,,,,,,,,,,, kihyun

(also in a night sheet toga)

and there’s music,,,,,,,every now and then provided by wonho with his ipod and jooheon who throws paper shavings everytime minhyuk appears since he’s playing a goddess

and the whole thing looks so,,,,,,,,so bizarre and silly

shownu pulls the script out of his toga to literally read off his lines and minhyuk is obviously improvising and when kihyun tries to hug changkyun changkyun almost smacks him away with his wig

and it’s,,,,,it’s a mess

but it’s kihyuns play. and you watch it: laughing and clapping and gasping when you need to

and finally, the last scene,,,,,,,,the last kiss between the girl and her lover,,,,,,

changkyun suddenly goes over to you and pulls you up, moving you toward his spot beside kihyun

whispering “he wanted it to be you, plus i don’t want to kiss him”

before sitting down where you were

and you’re looking at kihyun who says his last line before wrapping his arm around your waist and placing a gentle kiss right ,,,, on your lips

and you’re like !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! because oh god everyone is watching - was this kihyuns plan - he’s so soft and this kiss is so nice - wait oh god his friends are all watching

but then you can’t help it, your hand almost reflexively goes up to his neck to pull him closer

and hyungwon literaLLY clears his throat because AHEM this kiss is ‘short and sweet’

but when you two pull back it’s obvious the play is over and everyone in the room breaks into applause

but you’re star-struck staring at kihyun who just smiles and goes

“i’ve been waiting a long time to do that”

before turning to bow to the lone changkyun who is sitting where you were, pulling you down a bit so you bow too

and ,,,,,,,,,,, it’s crazy really

but somehow it feels right and you compliment everyone on their acting and helping and all of them crowd around to talk about how kihyun had bribed them to get them to do it

and it makes you laugh, hearing about how much effort kihyun put into this “play” just,,,,,,,,,,,,,,to show it to you

and once all his friends have filed out of the dorm. shownu leaving with jooheon to let you and kihyun be alone

you turn to him and go

“it was a good play, but you should really submit it to the theater club. it deserves more than just me seeing it.”

kihyun grins, kissing the side of your cheek and going “it’s ok. this play is special,,,,,,so special because it’s only meant for one person to see it.”

you: “me?”

kihyun: “the person i like.”

you: “so,,,,,,,,,me?”

kihyun: “pleASE i am trying to be romantic.”

you laugh again and kihyun collects you in his arms, pressing your foreheads together and wow yes kihyun asked you out by putting on a whole play for you and we ALL KNOW HE WOULD BE THIS EXTRA

but it’s cute,,,,,,,,,shownu comes back to find you and kihyun sitting in his bed reading through other stuff kihyun has written and shownu is like “id like to get some sleep but if you two plan on staying up giggling i will go make my bed somewhere else”

kihyun walks you back your dorm considering it’s dark out and you tell him that you’re serious though - he should get one of his plays put on by the theater club

kihyun just kisses you again and tells you you’re the best fan he’s ever had

and you hit him playfully because yes, fan but also -the best significant other???

and dating kihyun means literally just dating the most affectionate person in the world

from the moment you two meet up after your class to when kihyun has to leave you for practice ,,,,, kihyun is holding onto you

holding your hand, holding your waist, holding your face, literally just attached to your side

for that constant love and attention

and he’s even more passionate and dramatic than what you thought you knew

like he’ll get down on his knees with a rose in his mouth in front of your whoLE clASS on your 100 day anniversary

and he’ll insist on carrying you if you as much as scratch yourself on something

and he’ll serenade you outside your dorm window

and he’ll get his face printed on a t-shirt that says ‘i love kihyun’ as a gift for you

and oh gosh it sounds overwhelming but it’s all done with the best intentions because you best believe he makes himself a shirt that says ‘i love y/n’ with your face on it so he can wear it with pride

even though hyungwon sees this couple item and looks at you like please tell kihyun to burn these

but kihyun isn’t just passionate about you,,,,,,,,he’s passionate about your life too. he’s always cheering you up when you’re in a slump over course work or friends or family. and your family loves him because he literally is so polite and so well-mannered around them

and even on little holidays that most people overlook he’s like ‘let me call your family and thank them for bringing you into this world one again-’ and you’re like PLEASE

kihyun is also super smart,,,,,like he knows so much about ancient greek civilization and when he practices the language in front of you you’re like ‘you’re a genius’ and kihyun is like ‘i know, you’re lucky to be dating me. the next socrates’

and you’re like ok bye but he begs you to stay with many kisses

and he’s a drama major, and people think it’s easy but you know how kihyun stays up studying lines and then working on props that the club might need, and revising his own personal playwrights

and when you learn that he’s even taking a class on like lighting techniques??? for like stages???

you’re honestly like,,,,,,he is a genius and so hardworking,,,,,

so you’re always like giving kihyun a shoulder massage or helping organize his notes and he’s like “you really care well for me”

and you play it off like WHAT would you do without me,,,,,but you’re just really proud of his hardwork

and that’s why when you hear that the club is looking of putting out another production you insist that kihyun submit one of his plays,,,,,but he gets all concerned again

so with confidence you submit a copy of it yourself and it gets picked?? and when kihyun finds out he runs to your first

and literally picks you up in a spinning hug because he’s like mY PLAY and you’re like I tOLD you TheY’D LOVE IT

and that one teacher that kept telling him to stop writing in that style,,,,,,well let’s just say he’s quite embarrassed when the whole drama department gets excited over seeing the club put on something modeled after the ancient greek play

and you ofc help to paint the background

and while kihyun is practicing, every now and then he’ll break his concentration to surprise you with back hugs and kisses on the neck

on opening night of the production,,,,, you have a front row seat along with the rest of monsta x

and it’s amazing,,,,,kihyun shines so powerfully with his performance

but watching him makeout with the other lead,,,,,well,,,,,let’s just say you force jooheon to cover your eyes for you

but after as you’re all congratulating all the student actors

you pull kihyun aside and just,,,,,,,,well just you kiss him with a bit more force than ever and kihyun pulls back like ‘is this a gift for my performance or are you trying to tell me something?”

and you blush because Shut UP but,,,,,also,,,,,,,,,,,,,,you’re like “kihyun let’s celebrate more,,,,,,,,alone,,,,,,,,in your dorm,,,,,tell shownu to spend the night somewhere else”

and kihyun’s ears go redder than blood and he doesn’t even have to open his mouth when you two show up in front of shownu

A Lamb Among Wolves Ch:7

Chapter Seven: A Cold Reception

Dawn was doing everything she could to try to keep herself from trembling hard enough for the others to notice. In the process the lamb had stopped paying attention to the casual conversation that had been going on between the other wolves now seated in the comfortable and inviting den of the ranch. It was supposed to be simple little meal. She would meet Vernon's brother Zach and his mate. The worst she imagined that would happen would be Zachary making some off color comments, maybe the couple taking an immediate dislike to the ewe, or even Vernon and Zachary getting into an heated argument over Dawn's presence.

At first it all seemed like it was going to go smoothly. As the couple made their way back to the main hall of the house, Dawn caught her first glimpse of the wolf she presumed to be Zachary. The wolf was still in his police uniform, albeit stripped down of all the bells than whistles that went with it. The wolf ran a paw through his grey fur, playing with it slightly as he passed along the reddish tips. Like his brothers, the wolf had areas of soft white fur around his face and muzzle. But what stood out was the fact that only one of his eyes had white fur around it while the other had simple grey. It was unusual to see that sort of lack of symmetry. Zachary let out a howl before his steely grey eyes fell on the approaching couple. Dawn expected the next words out of the wolf's mouth to be a greeting, but before the wolf could open his maw again Vernon quickly snapped it shut with a paw.

"Turn off the howl, we all know you're here." Vernon chuckled.

Zach pulled his muzzle away, a look of hurt forming on his face as he placed a paw to his chest.

"Just like you to assume I'd let out another howl Puppy." Zach said sarcastically, giving Vernon a smirk.

Vernon narrowed his eyes at the slightly shorter wolf, and slowly Zach's confident smile faltered.

Zach shrugged, shaking his head. "Okay, I was..." Zach grinned broadly. "What can I say, some of us indulge our natural instincts with pride."

Vernon let out a scoff before Zach's eyes fell on the little ewe. Dawn internally braced for whatever barbs the wolf was preparing for her, but was surprised to see the wolf flash a genuine smile.

"And you must be Dawn right?" The large wolf crouched down to the lambs level, extending a large paw her way. "Heard about you from Ma, I can't believe you are the little lamb Vernon used to pal around with!"

Dawn warily extended her hoof, still uncertain of the wolf's intentions. Zach gingerly clasped her hoof, giving it a careful and delicate shake.

"Never thought I'd hear about you again, much less you getting together with my dumb ol' little brother." Zach gestured his head toward Vernon as the taller wolf let out another scoff.

"U-um....nice t-to meet you." Dawn stammered as the wolf released his grip.

"Where's Vanna?" Vernon drew Zach's attention back to him as the wolf rose to his feet.

"She's locking up the cruiser. Making sure our gear is all wrapped up tight." Zach chuckled. "Not like anyone's gonna steal 'em around here. But you know Vanna, she's a stickler for procedure."

"And professional, which I wish would have rubbed off on you by now." Vernon smirked.

Zach gave a hard laugh. "Oh that's good. You're on you're guard today Puppy." Zach rubbed the fur on top of Vernon's head roughly. Dawn couldn't help but smirk, it was kind of odd to see a mammal as large as Vernon getting treated that way. It appeared that no matter how big Vernon got, at the ranch he was always the runt. She couldn't help but see herself in that moment, and feel a pang of sympathy for her Puppy Love.

Vernon shoved his brother's paw away, clearly irritated.

"C'mon Zach!" He hissed. "Not in front of y'know..." Vernon trailed off as he glanced at Dawn.

"Aw cheer up Pup." Zach didn't miss a beat. " I'll try to take it easier on you this weekend. Can't completely embarrass you in front of your new mate." The wolf flashed a snarky grin. "I'll leave that to Ma."

Vernon let out an aggravated huff. The wolf opened his mouth presumably to retort, but he was cut off by a feminine howl. An almost hypnotic look came over Zach's face, and before another word could be spoken Vernon clasped Zach's maw shut again.

"That'll be Ma." Vernon muttered. "Let's just get to the Den, you can get some more jokes in once we're settled in okay?" He sneered at Zach. "I'd rather endure that then listen to you howl for the next twenty minutes."

The strange look faded as Vernon released his brother's muzzle.

"Y-yeah, yeah." Zach gave a weak chuckle. "Besides I'm getting hungry anyway. Those shortbread cookies are calling out to me."

"Among other things." Vernon grumbled.

As the group entered the den, Dawn could see Wade and Mrs. Hunter were already seated across from one another. The she-wolf was in the midst of pouring Wade a piping hot cup of tea. Turning to greet them, Audrey gave the cushion next to her a rough pat.

"There y'all are, I was startin' to wonder." Audrey mused. "Sit on down, I want you all filled up before we hit the corn field."

Dawn found it odd that Zach rushed to take the vacant seat next to his Mother rather than wait for his wife, but the ewe was more concerned about Audrey's mention of what sounded like field work. Dawn motioned for Vernon to lean down, which the wolf quickly obliged.

"What does she mean by 'hit' the corn field?" Dawn whispered.

"Ma probably wants us to help pick some corn for the stall tomorrow." Vernon whispered back, a quiet chuckle emanating from his throat. " You can help if ya want, but don't have to Mutton Chop."

"O-oh no, I can help!" Dawn whispered back, trying to appear eager. " I'd like to try at least." Dawn wasn't sure how much she corn she could pick, but at the very least it seemed like a great way to further bond with the family.

"C'mon you two!" Audrey piped up, breaking up Dawn's impromptu huddle. "No need to hide in the corner, there's plenty of room on the love seat!" Audrey waived a paw at the plush two-seater across the table from her.

With Vernon's help, Dawn clambered up onto the sofa cushion. Once she was properly settled, the large wolf eased into the seat next to her. The couch was considerably large, but the ewe had become accustomed to that sort of thing living with Vernon. Still there was something about the vacant space surrounding the ewe that was making her feel more awkward and uncomfortable than usual. Dawn couldn't help but think that maybe it had to do with her own fears of inadequacy. The ewe wasn't a wolf, or even a predator. And yet here was this tiny, meek little ewe taking up the spot a she-wolf should probably be taking.

"How do you like your tea darlin'?" Dawn's was pulled out of her thoughts by Audrey's sudden question.

"O-oh!" Dawn jumped slightly. " I g-guess a half a cup of milk and three sugars." The ewe timidly adjusted her eyewear.

"Alrighty." The wolf smiled as she began to craft the brew, adding spoonfuls of sugar to a fairly standard white mug.

"So where's Vanna?" Wade asked Zach.

The russet wolf shrugged. "Still packing away the gear I guess." As Zach took a shortbread cookie from the platter, he threw Wade a curious glance.

"What about your girl." The wolf scratched the fur on his chin with his cookie. "Giselle right? Where is she?" Zach dug his fangs into the cookie, snapping it in two.

Dawn could see Wade visibly tense up slightly at the mention of the giraffe.

"Even Vern brought out the lil' miss, so what's your excuse?" Zach pressed further.

"She had a family emergency Zach." Audrey tutted. "Poor thing's Father is sick."

"Well ain't that a shame." Zach replied, placing his paws on his knees. "Would have been interesting to see one of us finally bring a she-wolf back."

"Like you should talk." Audrey gave her son a playful swat. "You were the first one to bring another species girl home. If anything you started that trend."

With the last of the milk stirred in, Audrey held the piping hot mug of mint tea across the table toward Dawn. "Not that I mind. I don't care what kind of pelt my daughter-in-laws wear. Here you go darlin'."

The little ewe did her best to close the gap across the table, but could barely reach the cup from her seat. After a few moments struggling Vernon stepped in, taking the cup from Audrey and passing it to Dawn.

"T-thank you Puppy." Dawn said, taking the cup. Settling back down in her seat, the ewe took a ginger sip of the brew. It was pleasant, not quite as good as her Mother's, but still a decent cup of tea.

"Ah, you call him that too! That's adorable!" Zach cooed.

Dawn could see Vernon blushing fiercely, his ears sagging in embarrassment. Dawn placed a hoof on his leg, rubbing it gently in an attempt to reassure the wolf. Vernon returned the gesture with a rather weak smile.

"W-well he calls me Floofy." Dawn stammered. " I-It's something we used to do back when we were l-little."

"Floofy huh?" Zach sipped his own tea. " That's sweet, ya know me a Vanna have pet names too."

"Oh?" Dawn replied.

"Yep, she's my lovely little kitten, and I'm her-"

"Mutt." Wade chuckled. Zach flashed Wade a mild sneer.

"Trust me, it's endearing when she says it." Zach assured the other couple.

Dawn suppressed the urge to giggle at Zachary's own clumsy rebound from being embarrassed. Zach was surprisingly more lighthearted and jovial than the ewe had expected. On top of that so far the wolf seemed to be completely avoiding any of the more sensitive subjects she had expected he might venture into. Needless to say the ewe was starting to feel her confidence in the whole re-union rising.

But that hopeful feeling quickly evaporated as the creak of a door drew Dawn's attention to the entrance of the Den. As the door swung wide open, Dawn's eyes fell on one of the largest tigers she had ever seen. The massive orange and black stripped tigress had to duck as she made her way through the door and into the room. Like Zach, she was still clad in a very basic Meadowlands Police uniform. Her sharp yellow eyes seemed to give a quick scan of the mammals, lingering uncomfortably on Dawn for a moment before Zach cut through the sudden silence.

"Speak of the devil, there's my little kitten." Zach gestured to the large tigress.

'Little' was definitely a sarcastic use of the word. This tigress had to be as big as Lionheart, but her countenance was entirely different. Despite the fact that Lionheart had been a jerk, the mammal exuded charisma and a friendliness to the public that Dawn knew was half the reason he got elected. Only she had ever got to see his true, colder side. But even then he had an animation to him. Vanna's aura exuded a cold sternness, which was only heightened by the lack of response to Zach's playful nickname. Vanna coolly made her way over to the armchair next to her husband and gently sat down. Dawn could hear an audible creak as she filled out the seat, the chair clearly straining to keep the large mammal up. She saw now why Zach had quickly taken up the space next to his Mother, the one armchair Vanna now sat in was the only place she could even fit.

"Hello everyone." Vanna said quietly.

Zachary stood up on his chair, giving the large cat a kiss on the muzzle before settling back down into his seat. Vanna didn't even flinch.

"Well the rest of you all know Vanna, of course." Zach said. "But Vanna, I'd like you to meet Vernon's new gal, Dawn Bellwether." Zach gestured to the ewe.

Dawn could feel her breath stop as Vanna's yellow eyes fell on her once again. The ewe clenched her teeth to keep he jaw from dropping open in both awe and fear. Vanna squinted at her slightly before slowly extending a massive paw out to the sheep.

"Hello Ms. Bellwether." Vanna said. "I'm Vanna Hunter."

Dawn did her best to extend a hoof without allowing it to tremble. There was an intensity in the tigress' eyes, and the ewe wasn't sure if it was something that was always there or if it was directed at her.

"D-Dawn Bellwether." Dawn couldn't help but stammer as she took Vanna's paw. The large tigress gently closed her paw around the ewe's hoof, giving her a soft, albeit mechanical handshake. Dawn let out a quiet and relieved sigh as the tigress released her grip.

With Vanna introduced, the wolves went back to discussing various things, but Dawn couldn't help but keenly focus on Vanna. The tigress had taken to preparing her own cup of tea, only occasionally replying with one word answers to the wolves conversation. Every time the tigress' eyes fell on Dawn she quickly looked away. Part of the ewe was ashamed of her behavior. She didn't know much of anything about Vanna, and yet here she was actively trying not to tremble before the massive tiger. Dawn knew she wasn't in any danger, despite her ancient prey impulses telling her to flee. But the other part of the ewe could sense a deeper mistrust coming off the tigress, something that was making Dawn actively aware of the of her past misdeeds not yet discussed by the family at large.

"Dawn, you okay?"

Dawn was broken from her vigilant trance. Turning to Vernon she realized she had unknowingly began to bury herself deeply against his side. The large wolf gingerly wrapped a paw around her, rubbing her shoulder reassuringly.

"Yer practically balled up into me Honey Lamb." Vernon added.

"O-oh." Dawn stuttered. "I-I'm fine."

Despite her reply, Vernon's look of concern remained unchanged.

"You sure?" Vernon pressed.

"I-I'm fine really." Dawn gave a vigorous nod, but her faltering voice betrayed her true feelings.

"So how'd you two get together anyway?" Dawn's attention turned back to the room. The question had come from the seemingly eager Zach, the wolf in the midst of popping another cookie into his maw. " I mean after all this time, how'd you run into each other?"

"W-well...er..." Vernon coughed. "We met at work. Gus hired her on as my co-worker for the night shift."

Vernon eyed Dawn uneasily, it was clear the wolf really didn't know how to proceed from there.

"Oh, so Gus hired her on?" Zach grinned. "How is that old billy by the way, still got that messed up horn?"

Vernon gave a brisk nod. "Yep, same old Gus, same old buggy horn."

Zach chuckled. "Ah that's rough, that goat was always a good kid." Zach took a sip of his own tea. "But I'm getting off track, so you two met on the job and then what?"

Vernon nervously eyed Dawn again, clearly looking for help.

"W-well we didn't even recognize each other at first." Dawn jumped in. "If I hadn't heard Vernon's nickname we may have never even realized it."

“Naw, I think we would have figured it out.” Vernon said. “Heck, we were spending so much time together there’s no way we wouldn’t have made that connection.”

Zach chuckled. “Maybe, maybe not.” The russet grey wolf gave a shrug. “I mean it’s no secret you don’t like to dwell too much on our childhood Vern. I imagine memories of Dawn would have been buried pretty deep.”

Dawn could feel Vernon tense up slightly, the wolf seeming to cringe at even the mention of his past. A brief and awkward silence fell over the den.

“Of course none of us even remembered Dawn till you told Ma about her. I mean we remembered you having a sheep friend, just not the name.” Zach grinned weakly. “But hey, I imagine Dawn would eventually recognize you, she seems like the smart type.” The wolf clearly was trying to bring to conversation back to a lighter tone.

“O-Oh, well thank you.” Dawn smiled meekly. “B-but to be honest if I hadn’t been through therapy I may not have remembered him either.” Dawn shifted in her seat uncomfortably. "I had my own childhood trauma to sift through."

“A-after that things sort of…well they just sort of took off from there.” Vernon chimed in. “Dawn moved in with me and…well…I mean…” Vernon scratched the back of his neck, flashing Dawn an uneasy glance. Dawn could tell Vernon was trying to carefully avoid all the more sensitive situations that arose during their time together. The fire, the police chase, almost getting killed. It wasn’t the kind of topics that Dawn wanted deeply dissected by the group either, but at the very least they couldn’t avoid it for the whole visit. These were the events that had pushed them back together, for better or worse. Dawn took Vernon’s paw into her hoof, intertwining her fingers with his own. The ewe gave the wolf a reassuring smile. Vernon gave a weak smile in return, his tail wagging slightly.

“Vernon took me in after my apartment was burned down” Dawn faced the group, doing her best to keep her gaze away from Vanna in order to brave her way through it. “And while Vernon asking me to stay was entirely innocent, living together sort of pushed us closer and closer together, romantically speaking.” The ewe gave Vernon's paw a squeeze. “But what really ended up becoming the catalyst for us admitting our feelings to one another was…well…I’m sure you saw the news.” Dawn gulped as she finished her statement.

The room had grown quiet again, and Dawn’s nerves were causing her to periodically squeeze Vernon’s paw.

“Y-yeah I had seen that.” Zach mumbled. “T-that was a real close call for the city.” The reddish grey wolf took a sip of his tea. "As well as yourself."

“That was pretty brave of you to put your life on the line like that.” Audrey added.

Dawn heard what she swore was a slight huff from Vanna, the first sound she had heard from the tigress during this turn in the conversation. She could see Vanna’s eyes were on her again, but she shifted them away as Dawn looked at her.

“Yeah, I don’t think I’d be willing to expose myself to night howler gas like that.” Zach added. “I saw some of the pictures from those Bug-Burga attacks.” The wolf paused for a moment, placing his tea on the table as a look of discomfort crossed his muzzle. “I’ve never seen anything so horrifying, and I’ve been on the force for six years.”

“I have.” Muttered Vanna.

Dawn turned her attention back to the tigress in surprise. It was probably the most the feline had said since she first entered the Den.

“Well of course you have kitten.” Zach chuckled awkwardly. “ Vanna has more years under her belt then I have. She used to be at Precinct Two in Savannah Central before she transferred out here.”

Zach stood on the couch, placing a paw around his wife’s shoulder.

“In fact that’s how we met.” Zach grinned, placing another kiss on Vanna’s muzzle. While the tigress’ face remained unchanged, Dawn could see a hint of red forming below the fur on her muzzle. Seizing the opportunity to shift the subject away from herself, Dawn jumped on the thread Zach had supplied.

“Oh, really?” Dawn asked.

Zach seemed to beam with pride. “Yes ma’am. When Vanna transferred out to the North Meadowlands P.D., Pa assigned her as my partner.”

“To keep you in-line.” Vanna added.

Zach laughed. “Yeah, Dad said I had a bad habit of getting myself into dangerous situations.”

“That’s because you like to have something to brag about.” Vernon added.

Zach sat back down, sneering at Vernon as he crossed his arms defiantly.

“Hey, I can’t help it if I’m an amazing cop! I didn’t get to be deputy just because our Father is the Sheriff.” Zach snorted.

“It helped though.” Vanna added, taking another sip of her tea.

“Vanna! You’re supposed to be on my side here!” Zach whined.

Vanna let out a sigh, turning her attention to Dawn and Vernon the tigress gave them a shrug. “But he is a good cop.”

“Thank you kitten.” Zach replied. “Anyway, so Dad thought having a partner would be a good experience for me.”

Zach closed his eyes and shook his head, shrugging as he did. “Now I hated the idea, last thing I wanted was a partner.” Zach stabbed a paw toward his looming bride. “And if you can imagine, Vanna was a real pill. A real by the book, hard nosed, city cop.”

Vanna simply nodded, taking another sip of her tea.

“But after working together for a while, well…” Zach smiled warmly as he began to reminisce. “some embers kicked up.” Zach placed a paw on Vanna’s larger one, gently rubbing it as he eyed the big cat affectionately. “ Theose embers became sparks, and then a fire, and next thing we knew we were trading vows at a tithing ceremony.”

For the first time during the entire conversation, Dawn saw Vanna’s face light up as a smile curled across her muzzle. The lumbering tigress slowly leaned over her mate, placing a dainty kiss on the top of his head. Zach in turn gave her muzzle a gentle caress, causing her to emit a pleased chuffing noise before she eased back into her seat.

“Been about two years since then, although it seems like just yesterday.” Zach added.

“Yeah, I remember the ceremony.” Vernon said. “That was the last re-union I was out for right?” The larger wolf asked.

“Yes Vernon.” Audrey replied. “Although you live so close you really have no excuse not to make it out every year.” The she-wolf tutted.

“MaAAaaa…” Vernon whined. “You know I had school!”

“MhhHmm.” Audrey replied, sarcasm lacing her response.

“And work!” Vernon continued.

Dawn giggled quietly as the wolf continued to whine like a little puppy, living up to his nickname.

“Do you give the others this much grief when they don’t show?” Vernon griped.

“Yes I do.” Audrey took a sip of her tea. “It’s a Mothers job. That and asking for grandpups.” Audrey smirked.

Vernon threw his paws up as he let out an aggravated sigh.

“Teeth to tails Ma, you ever gonna drop that?” Vernon continued.

“She hasn’t stopped with us.” Zach added. “She’s been on us to adopt.”

Another warm smirk crawled across Vanna’s lips. “Daily.”

“Hey, I don’t care where my grandpups come from, or even what species they are! I just want some already!” Audrey huffed.

Pups, or lambs were a concern of Dawn’s. More so out of fear of what Vernon’s family would think of losing another shot of getting some blood related grandpups. But considering Audrey’s response, the ewe felt somewhat relieved. Dawn definitely wanted to have kids, but part of the price of being with the one she loved meant she would never get to actually carry any herself, nor would Vernon ever be a Father genetically speaking. Still knowing that if they adopted a pup or a lamb it would be loved by Vernon’s Mother regardless was a weight off her shoulders.

“Anyway, that was a really beautiful ceremony.” Vernon sighed, returning to the previous topic at paw. “ And you two looked perfect together up there, like you were made for each other.” The wolf smiled broadly.

“Aw shucks Vern.” Zach blushed as he traded glances with the large cat. Vanna had her own deep matching blush as she stared into Zach’s eyes.

“T-thank you Vernon.” Vanna replied.

“Yeah, that transfer she took out here must have been…fate or something.” Zach sighed, patting Vanna’s paw gingerly.

“I-If you don’t mind me asking.” Dawn mumbled. “W-why did you transfer in the first place?” Dawn gingerly took a shortbread cookie from the platter. “Was Savannah Central really rough or…” Dawn trailed off as she saw the joy drain from Vanna’s face, replaced with the same coldness she had entered the Den with. The tigress released Zach’s paw, clearing her throat before speaking.

“Well, I transferred out because of the growing…er…issues in the city.” Vanna’s stare fixed on Dawn, sending a shiver down the ewe’s spine. “Let’s just say It…wasn't really a good fit for me in the long run.”

“That was…what kitten?” Zach asked. “Four years ago?”

“Close to five now…” Vanna mumbled.

“Wasn’t that during…” Wade trailed off as realization slowly began to dawn on the rest of the group. However Dawn had already put two and two together when Vanna mentioned how many years ago she had made the transfer. A quick rough estimate placed Vanna’s departure right around the height of Dawn’s terrible night howler scheme, when anti-predator sentiment had been in full swing. Dawn slowly placed her hooves over her mouth as she realized what exactly had driven Vanna out.

“O-Oh gods…I…I” Dawn stuttered. “I-I’m so-so sorry. If it-"

"Don't." Vanna said, placing her tea down gingerly on the coffee table. "What is past is past. As an officer of the law I firmly believe that any mammal who has paid the dues set upon them by a judge and jury has paid their debt to society." Vanna sighed, her cold eyes still fixated on the now shivering ewe. "I am also a firm subscriber to the belief that rehabilitation is a highly successful way to treat offenders." Vanna took a small cookie from the nearby platter, delicately balancing it between her fingers.

"And besides..." Vanna muttered. "If Vernon is vouching for you, you can't be all that bad." In that moment, the tigress offered the ewe a small grin. Her piercing eyes softening for just a moment.

"Ahem" Vanna turned back to her mate, quickly popping the small cookie in her maw. "I came out here because I had long grown to hate the grittiness of city life. And if I hadn't, I would have never met my little goofball here." The tigress mussed Zach's hair roughly.

Zach pushed the large feline back, chuckling as he did. "Kitten! Not in front of the family!"

Dawn felt awash with relief. She wasn't sure if Vanna would ever be somewhat of a friend to her, but at the very least the tigress had been kind enough to deftly ease the elephant out of the room. Whether it was just for Dawn's sake, or if she really felt that way the ewe wasn't sure. But for now she had seemingly managed to move past the worst of Dawn's past with little issue, and for that the lamb was grateful.

"So when's Pa getting home?" Wade asked.

"Dad said he'd be back for dinner." Zach replied. "He's finishing up some stuff at the station."

"Pfft." Audrey scoffed. " Your Fathers just trying to get out of helping pick corn." The she-wolf took a large swig of her tea before placing her empty mug back on the table.

Zachary gave a hard laugh. "Ma, he swore he had some cases to review. He seemed earnest enough."

"Oh I'm sure he did seem earnest." Audrey chuckled. "But he also always seems to have cases to go over when there is farm work to be done. Either that or working on your house."

Zach put his own teacup down, placing his paws on his knees.

"Well do you want us to keep livin' in a trailer across down the street or you want us to have a house?" Zach laughed. "I mean, we can't be thinking about grandpups without a nice home to raise 'em in can we?"

"Y-you live that close?" Dawn asked.

"Oh yeah." Zach replied. "What with our jobs and all, it seemed like the best idea to stay close by."

"And because you can't cook for yourself." Audrey added.

"MaAAaa!" Zach's whine was nearly identical to Vernon's.

"It's true, he can't" Vanna stated bluntly, setting her own empty tea cup down.

"Ugh, traitors on all sides here!" Zach huffed, crossing his arms.

Dawn did her best to stifle her giggles, she was trying to be polite after all. But really her chances of being heard over Vernon's own laughter were pretty much slim to none.

"Luckily, some of us can cook for ourselves." Vernon choked out in-between laughs.

"Oh good for you." Zach sneered back.

"Vanna, y-you don't cook either?" Dawn asked.

The tigress ate another shortbread cookie before clearing her throat.

"I grew up rural, but I never learned to cook. Then once I got to Zootopia I never really had to." She muttered. "It was always easier to get Bug-Burga or something, especially when I became a cop."

"Oh." Dawn replied.

"What about you?" Vanna asked. "Surely Vernon can't cook for you? If I remember prey diets are a bit more nuanced than a preds. We just don't have the taste buds for it."

Dawn twiddled her hooves together nervously. "Well, y-yes." She stuttered. "If it's a big meal, we usually cook separately."

"Y-yeah." Vernon scratched the back of his head awkwardly. "B-but I am learning. Slowly but surely."

"See!" Audrey gestured a paw at her large son. " Now if you were willing to sit down and learn like Puppy I wouldn't have to be cooking you dinner every day!" The she-wolf let out a howl of a laugh.

At that point Zach stood up. The wolf wiped his paws on his shirt briefly before grimacing at his Mother.

"Well, if we're done with riding me up and down the farm I think I'm gonna head out to the field." Zach pointed his thumb at the entrance to the den.

"Oh Zachary, don't be like that." Audrey tutted. But by the time she said it the wolf was nearly at the door.

"Don't be jealous because I'm the favorite!" Vernon called out after his brother. Dawn could hear Zach let out a scoff as he exited the Den.

"Hey now." Wade laughed. "Who you trying to kid. Everyone know I'm Ma's favorite."

Vernon opened his mouth to speak, but Audrey cut him off.

"Oh don't you boys start that now!" The she-wolf smirked. "You know I love all you boys equally."

"Some more equally than others." Vernon chuckled.

"I'll tell you boys what." Audrey mused. "You are all my favorite, and I love y'all equally, buUUUuuuut..." Audrey lingered on the word but, stretching it out teasingly. "I may give some bonus points to whichever one of you picks the most corn."

Wade was immediately on his feet, adjusting his faded cap tersely. "I'm going to pick circles around you and Zach!" The wolf stabbed a finger at Vernon before bolting toward the door.

Vernon let out a soft chuckle as Wade disappeared beyond the entrance of the Den.

"See that right there is why I'm the favorite, pointless competition doesn't get me as riled up." Vernon gave Dawn a wry smirk. Dawn giggled, shaking her head in disbelief. The ewe had never grown up with siblings, and assumed the little show she had just witnessed was a little taste of what she had missed growing up without them. As silly as it was, the ewe couldn't help but be a little jealous herself that she didn't have family quite like that.

"Welp, even so." Audrey stood. The she-wolf began to gather the empty mugs as she continued. "Bout time ya'll get out there, I'm gonna need a lot of corn to run the stall for tomorrow. The roasted and buttered corn is our most popular seller."

Dawn watched as both Vernon and Vanna rose to their feet, Vernon giving his pants a quick brush to free it of shortbread crumbs.

"You're not coming Ma?" Vernon crossed his arms. "And you say Dad's trying to get out of work." The wolf chuckled, shaking his head.

Audrey retorted with a sarcastic laugh of her own. "And you think you're my favorite?" She tutted.

As Audrey came around to Dawn's side of the table, the ewe quickly finished off her tea before gingerly handing it off to the wolfess.

"You know I got dinner to work on, I'm cooking for seven tonight." Audrey picked up the cookie platter, leaning it towards herself to keep the few stray leftover cookies from spilling off. "And I'd like to have it all done before your Father gets back."

Dawn began to make her way off the large loveseat, clambering down the cushion. However, before the ewe could touch the floor she suddenly felt a pair of familiar paws wrap around her. The ewe let out a squeak as she suddenly felt herself swoop through the air before coming to a stop high above the room. Looking down, the ewe could see she was now seated on Vernon's shoulders, the wolf smiling back at her.

"Welp if we're gonna be picking, it'd be best if you were high up." Vernon grinned widely. "It'll be easier to reach everything." The wolf arched his eyebrows.

Dawn gave the wolf a playful swat. "Vernon!" She tried to hide her growing smile. "I told you not to do that without warning me!"

"You know you love it!" Vernon laughed.

Audrey was stifling a laugh of her own. "You two are too cute." She cooed.

Much to Dawn's surprise, even Vanna appeared to be smirking at the pairs antics. She gave the couple a short nod before making her way to the door.

"Well I guess we'll head out there Ma." Vernon said, gesturing his head toward the door. Audrey gave the couple a dismissive waive as she grabbed the last of the mugs, stacking them on the platter.

"Good, I'll call y'all when dinner's up. You go have fun." She replied.

"Yeah, fun." Vernon gave a sarcastic laugh. Glancing back up at Dawn, Vernon gave her another smile. "Having you out there will make it a bit more enjoyable at least."

Dawn giggled, giving the wolf a gently pat on the head. "I would think carrying me around would be worse."

"Pft..." Vernon chuckled. "Please Darlin', carrying you around is like I just let my head fur grow in a bit longer, you're like air."

Dawn giggled as the wolf began to move toward the exit of the Den. Gingerly, Vernon lowered himself to allow them to pass through the door without Dawn hitting her head. Finally clear of the doorframe, Vernon waived back at his Mother.

"See ya later Ma!" The wolf yelped.

Dawn wasn't sure how the whole corn picking thing was going to go, but at the very least the ewe was growing comfortable being around the family. So far she had seemed to make good with nearly half the Hunter pack. If things kept going the way they had been, she was looking at a fantastic weekend.
