Hey, I love your fics. I wanted to request a bat!bro reader who’s 16 where Bruce has split custody with his mum (he grew up with his mum and wanted split) but it turns out his mum was just using him to get money from Bruce and is kind of neglectful? And he always gives it to her bc he’s a mamas boy?
Stay safe and don’t forget to stay hydrated <33
Thanks anon, you stay hydrated too.
Summary: (Y/N) lives with his mom, but it's not going well.
Warnings: Bruce is protective, neglective mom, brothers are worried for (Y/N), Clark is investigating too, emotional (Y/N).
Tumblr media
Bruce noticed something about his son (Y/N). He had split custody with his mother because (Y/N) wanted to be with both of his parents equally. Bruce respected that wish and made an effort to work with his mother.
At first, his mom has agreed too and the two of them worked together to make sure that their son is happy. Bruce's other sons were happy with the results and they loved spending a week with the brother.
But now, there is something that has been going on, but Bruce couldn't quite pinpoint it on anything. He noticed that his former fling had much more nicer clothes. Bruce has sent a very hefty sum in child support for (Y/N), knowing that she is a single mom and she is not as rich as he is.
There wasn't anything wrong with buying new clothes for yourself, but he keeps seeing (Y/N) in the same clothes all the time. Bruce has tried to see it in a logical way, but there was a paranoia in his mind.
He knew that there were stories about women using men's child support to pay for themselves, especially if the men are rich and the sums are very hefty.
Just like in Bruce's case.
He didn't want to be paranoid because it would seem like he was crazy, but what if he was right about (Y/N)'s mom? (Y/N) seemed more anxious and more withdrawn. And when he wasn't in that mood, he became clingy, almost like he was deprived of love at home.
He wasn't clingy before and Bruce found it to be suspicious. He thought about involving CPS and other organizations, but he didn't have any official evidence. Just because someone starts being clingy, doesn't have to mean that they are neglected.
However, it is weird.
Bruce made sure to observe what was going on with (Y/N). The others agreed that something was off with their brother. (Y/N) has always been a happy kid, outgoing and loved to hang out with his brothers, dad and unofficial grandfather, but now, (Y/N) has completely changed.
Sure, you could argue that teenagers change and it was true. But not this quickly and not this drastic.
Bruce has officially decided to get involved, deciding to ask Clark for help. Clark is an investigative journalist and he would be able to do this unnoticed. And Clark would do anything do help his nephew.
He just adored (Y/N) and would do anything to make sure that he is okay. So, he has decided to see what (Y/N)'s mom is doing. All of this looked like a case of neglect and Clark could only hope at this point.
Hopes dies last.
But he knew that the chances are slim of that. He made sure that he followed his mom without her noticing. At first, everything was fine. Until he saw that she was rarely home. She spent her days shopping, hanging out with her friends, spending nights with random men...
And amidst all of that, (Y/N) was all alone. He had become an adult. He had to make himself meals, he had to do everything in the house. Not to mention that he had to pay the bills himself.
And recently the heating got cut off because the mom didn't pay it. Now, that was something that Clark couldn't take. His nephew doesn't deserve this.
He told Bruce that and Bruce has called CPS. Those sums are for (Y/N) and not for her. He got a lawyer too and now he had to wait. Now, she refused Bruce to see his own son.
And now she has messed up.
Bruce quickly filed for full custody, not allowing her to use his son as a weapon. Not going to happen. Absolutely not. The court hearings and preceding's were quick and efficient and Bruce was happy that (Y/N) was finally in his custody.
And it was discovered that his mom committed financial crimes and FBI was looking into her. (Y/N) didn't need to know that and he didn't need to be involved in that.
He really didn't need to be involved in that. But the one thing that makes Bruce mad every time he thought about it was the fact that she used his love and manipulated it.
(Y/N) has always been a mama's boy and she used it as a weapon against her own son. And despite (Y/N) being happy that he left that home behind, but there was this... Weird feeling.
He felt guilty and happy at the same time. He shouldn't be happy that his mother is going to jail soon, but at the same time he shouldn't feel guilty that he is now going to have a better life.
But she wasn't a bad mother at first. She was a great mom, but he knew that money has changed her. Those hefty sums were for him and yet, he gave her the amount every month.
He knows he shouldn't blame himself for it, but in the end he does. How he didn't see the manipulation of his love and adoration for her? How could he have been so blind?
So stupid too?
Bruce knew that he had to talk with (Y/N) about the situation. He started living with them full time a little over two weeks ago. It has not been easy for (Y/N), knowing that his mother was a criminal now and completely changing the way he lived.
He was still withdrawn and Bruce knew that he had to talk to (Y/N). He needed to make sure that (Y/N) knows that he is not at fault. Not happening.
He went to his room where (Y/N) was reading and Bruce gave him a smile as he entered the room sitting next to him. (Y/N) marked the page and put the book down.
It has been silent and (Y/N) couldn't really look at Bruce. And what does Bruce does? He brings (Y/N) into his lap, allowing him to finally find some comfort. (Y/N) didn't want to be clingy anymore, but he wanted comfort.
" Now, I want you to just listen and not talk, okay? " Bruce said and (Y/N) nodded.
" None of this is on you. She didn't take good care of you and none of this is on you. Whatever you might see in the media, is not true. You don't have to, no you shouldn't feel guilty. " Bruce has started, gently rocking his son.
He loved to rock him, even when he was a baby he rocked him. (Y/N) loved it a lot and it would always calm him down.
" Now, you mother made her own choices and now she has to answer for them. I know that you feel guilty and once again, you shouldn't feel guilty. You are going to have at least 3 warm meals with us, you won't have to do any chores anymore, you won't worry about bills and more importantly, " Bruce paused, glancing down at his son who was softly shaking while sobbing.
" Now, if you ever need something, do not hesitate. We are all here for you. All of us. From Damian to Alfred. All of us. " Bruce has said, giving him a soft kiss to the side of his head. He nodded to his sons who were waiting outside of the room.
They have entered and hugged their brother tightly, making sure to let him know that he is not at fault. Damian was the one who was the most vocal about it.
(Y/N) was so overwhelmed with emotions, but was happy to have so much support in his life. He didn't really have that support with his mom and all of this has made his head spin. All of it.
But he was happy none the less.
" Thanks guys. Love you all. " (Y/N) said so quietly and Dick openly cooed at (Y/N). Everyone felt their heart bursting from the sheer happiness.
Now they had their brother back. With a little bit more time, he is going to be his old self.

Fic prompt: s5 pillow talk 💛
I know it's been forever since you prompted this, I hope you like it!
Talks in the Dark
"What'd you want to be when you grew up?"
The question comes out of the blue, a complete non sequitur to the last words they'd spoken (which had been more breathless pants than an actual conversation), but Kate just laughs, reaching back for his hand and bringing it around her body to bring his chest flush with her back.
"When you were really little, I mean," he continues, dusting a kiss to the skin at the back of her neck. "I know you told me once that when you were in college you were pre-law, and then you became the greatest detective in the world, but when you were your little, tiny, feisty baby Beckett self, what'd you want to be?"
Kate strokes her fingertips over the back of his hand, using the gentle rhythm to help herself think. She knows she'd wanted to be something different back then, all kids did even if it was something absolutely absurd, but she can't for the life of her remember what it was.
"I really don't know," she says. "I guess maybe I always kind of wanted to be like my mom."
She feels him smile against her skin, shivering when he brushes his stubble along her shoulder.
"I could see that," he agrees. "You do stick to your guns when you know what you want."
Kate exhales, clutching his hand a little tighter. She's trying not to be so rigid, but she knows he's seen that side of her too often.
"My dad used to joke that 'stubborn' should have been my middle name."
Castle chuckles. "Katherine Stubborn Beckett; it does have a ring to it."
She smiles. "Not the worst name in the world, anyway."
He hums.
"Come to think of it, though, I feel like I did once tell my parents I wanted to be a groundskeeper in a cemetery after we went to a funeral."
Castle's head tilts on the pillow. "I need to know. Tell me everything. How did you go from lawyer to groundskeeper in a cemetery, and back to lawyer?"
"I remember seeing the care they took in making sure the graves looked nice, and it was quiet and peaceful there."
"And you didn't think, even for a second that it might be haunted?"
She snorts. "Not even a little bit."
"Party pooper."
Kate hums. "What about you? What'd you want to be before little Ricky Castle decided the life of a writer was for him?"
Castle's fingers twitch in hers. "Oh, I definitely wanted to be a ghostbuster who patrolled a cemetery. Zap a few poltergeists with my proton pack before they can terrorize people? The best."
She doesn't believe it for a second, but she laughs anyway, giving him that.
"And then I'd fall in love with an unbelievably, unrealistically sexy cemetery groundskeeper and we'd be together forever, making sure the army of the undead never rose to terrorize the city."
Kate snorts. "No really, Castle. What'd you want to be?"
He exhales. "A journalist, I think. Television, print, either. I wanted to report facts to people and keep them up to date about what was going on in the world. I used to sit Mother down and force her to watch my nightly news reports. Which I wrote myself about events I almost completely made up."
His lips pucker against her skin. "It turns out fiction is much more fun."
Kate laughs. "Now that I believe."
Behind her, Castle hums.
"I am glad to know that about you, though," she adds. Pulling her hand out of his grip, her fingers trail down his arm, making soothing strokes. "Thanks for telling me."
His foot brushes hers. "Thanks for telling me about yours, too. You would make a pretty hot groundskeeper, you know."
Laughter bubbles in her chest. "Thanks, Castle," she drawls. "I'll keep that in mind if I ever decide to change jobs."
He grins against her skin. "Good."
Quiet settles, blanketing them in warmth. Kate sinks deeper into the mattress, allowing herself to drift. She's on the cusp of sleep when she hears her name again.
"Mmm?"
"I love you."
A smile works its way over her lips. "I know."
He chuckles, pulling her closer, rearranging the tangle of limbs they've created until they're both comfortable.
"Hey Cas'le?" she says a second later, peeking an eye open and twisting her head as far as she can. She can't see him, but it's the thought that counts.
"Yeah?"
"I love you, too."

fast forward ummm reader’s in college / uni and made it into the same school ashley goes to woohoo !!! but !!! the school is super expensive (considering ashley is attending) so out of like lowk desperation readers mom contacts leon to like . ask for sooomeee money cs she doesnt wanna go broke sending her baby to school !!! ashley overhears the call or whatever n is like “omg i have a little sister and shes going to school in the area ?!? 🥺” and leon, seeing how happy ashley is, lets reader come live w them while shes at school instead of the dorms provided she pretends shes like . a niece or smth to avoid some scandal (stupid ass leon thinks thats gonna cause an issue cs hes LITERALLY fucking his daughter on the down low. not beating the accusations!!!)
reader moves in and ashley is all over her little sister !!! wants to dress her up like a doll cs she sees the state her secondhand clothes r in and how little she has !!! eventually begs leon to take them shopping so they can have a sister/daddy-daughters date !!!
at first its . tense w leon cs he didnt want another daughter around ! he has ashley ! hes doing this to make ashley happy but reader is sooo desperate for a relationship w daddy :( (think of jingle balls reader tbh i think ???) mopey whenever dad downright refuses to acknowledge her, seeing all the hugs and kisses he gives ashley . n ashley isnt dumb ! mostly ! she sees how sad reader is n is like i have an idea >:)

- 🖇️ anon
oh my god anon u don’t understand how much I LOVE THIS.. I have ocs in like my original work where the rich scumbag dad kind of pays off a girl he knocked up to just shut up the baby.. and it reminds me of this cuz his other daughter is rich n spoiled like omg :3
and yeah.. he probably got ur mom a boob job and called it a day. has the money to pay her regularly but he’s a fucking disgusting deadbeat so he stops the minute u turn 18 and there’s also the fear that journalists and media will go digging and find out ab this account he’s sending money to :3 and the thing is ashley wouldn’t even care.. she would just be so happy to have another sister his wife wouldn’t even gaf.. like she doesn’t care ab leon she’s a gold digger!!! so he’s being needlessly . cruel LMFAO but he’s just so . focused on ashley just has tunnel vision for her it’s sickening !!
and he would also be pissed off. that you got into the same university as ashley? takes it sort of as a threat like.. he’s mad omg cuz he thinks you’re there to fucking expose him and ur not? ur just!! a smart cookie omg and ashley is so lovely.. she wouldn’t leave ur side whether it be on campus or at home she’s so excited to have a sister like she grew up pretty lonely? even if leon’s first priority is her he’s still a busy guy and he’s not much fun like he’s a gross old man how much fun can she have with him?
she would be so pushy ab it too.. insists that he gives you a kiss when he gives ashley a kiss! tells him to hug you and hold you when he does it to her:.. and leon’s like tweaking omg he’s usually with her as much as possible fucking her openly. sticking his hand in her panties when he wants but yk you’re there and. not exactly exposed to what they do as of now LMFAO
and ur kind of like. u half resent him? bc how could he do that to you and mom? fuck her and knock her up and then just leave her? when he has a daughter here who just gets everything at the drop of a hat and it’s not Ashley’s fault so u don’t blame her at all its just him omg but at the same time u want him so bad.. when ashley insists that he’s affectionate with u too ur like nonono! it’s ok it’s ok but :3 really you do want him to do it bc u want a dad so bad..
and omg.. big sis ashley she’s so.. she’s so pushy towards leon tbh!! like she will get what she wants from him.. OMG just. she won’t let him touch until he swears to be nice to you and he has to touch you so sweetly and get you off and fuck you while your big sister talks you through taking dads cock .. like trust she will whip him into shape

Since I’m on a roll, here’s another part I had fun with. Both this and the Steve-Goes-Into-The-Car-Blanket-fort scene are apart of Illustrated which is my lil Soulmate AU. 
“The famed bedroom of King Steve. I feel like I should have made you work harder to get me in here. Rumors say you enjoy the chase after all."  Munson drawls, as they walk down the hallway.  
"Rumors say a lot of things, Munson. Most of it’s-" Steve stops, catches himself before he says the word bullshit and inflicts psychological damage on himself. "Stupid." 
"Stupid." Eddie echoes, teasing lilt to his voice. 
“Tommy once spent six weeks trying to convince last year's freshmen that Ms. Click is in a motorcycle gang.” Steve counters. “Went so far as to try and get the school’s journalist club to fake some pictures for him.”
“That explains the entire debate club's fixation with leather vests.” Eddie says triumphantly, looking like there’s a story he’s about to tackle (likely with many dramatics, because omelets seem to have somehow restored the guy’s energy) but stops dead as Steve swings his bedroom door open. 
“Oh my god why is there so much plaid?” Eddie’s jaw drops, teasing forgotten entirely as they step into Steve’s room. 
Who rolls his eyes. “Why does everyone always say that?”
“Because no one in their right mind has plaid walls, dude.” Munson blinks, dramatically staggering backwards like he’s been hit. “My eyes are being assaulted right now.” 
Steve should be annoyed, but surprises himself when he finds he actually wants to laugh. “Does it help if I tell you I didn’t pick it?”
The look Eddie gives him almost makes him laugh anyway. “Who the hell did? Satan?” 
“Close enough. My mom.” Steve turns to look at his room, imagining how someone like Eddie must see it. 
Plaid walls, minimal décor, a bed that’s made (only because Steve’s mother drilled that habit into him) and hideous, matching curtains. The whole set was picked out of a catalog, right down to the stupid, framed car poster. 
The only thing that shows any signs of life is his desk, which is covered in scraplets of paper, pens, a phone and random other objects. 
(Steve’s favorite is a small stuffed penguin wearing a sailor costume. Robin had a matching one, a tribute to the way they had met. It would be the very first thing he’d grab in a fire, one of the very few possessions he owned that Steve truly treasures.)  
“Ahh the fabled Mrs. Harrington. I thought she was made up.” Eddie says, finally  entering the room. He explores it like something might pop out at him, and hell, Steve couldn’t blame him for that either. 
“Yeah. She picked it out when she used to be here more. Before her and my dad fucked off to New York.” 
“And you didn’t immediately renovate?” 
This is the most expressive Steve’s seen Eddie in the last twenty four hours. Feels almost like he’s got the guy back to some semblance of a balanced mental state, which makes the part of Steve that loves caring for people unbelievably happy. 
Steve shrugs. “Honestly, I never thought about it much.” 
Doesn’t mention that these days he tries to spend the least amount of time he can inside his own home, instead bouncing between work, Dustin’s house, and any antics the kids or Robin had pulled him into.
Thinks vaguely that he and Robin may have actually slept in his living room more than his actual bedroom-or, him in her bed, considering how often he sneaks into her room. 
A fact her parents would be furious about except they’re so painfully relieved that they’ve purposefully given Steve some grace. Something Robin hates and Steve does his best to distract her from. 
“Yeah we’re gonna fix that.” Eddie spins slowly, looking all the way up like some bit of personality is hiding out on the ceiling. “Immediately.”
Digs around in one of his pockets, and pulls out a thick black Sharpie, before turning with it to give Steve a wild grin.  “What do you say to a little home makeover?” 
Steve raises an eyebrow at him, before looking over his room once more. “You sure you don’t want a shower first” He asks, to buy himself time to think.
Has a feeling Munson can find the time to shower, nap and cause chaos, in equal amounts. 
Sure enough, Eddie waves him off. “Don’t you worry about me, Steve-o,  I think I can manage to figure out how to use your bathroom after giving this place a little art CPR.” 
Screw it.
Will in fact, likely help Munson channel out whatever leftover emotion he had left into whatever horrors he drew upon Steve’s wallpaper, which at the very least, could always be removed later.
It’s not like his parents can get any more disappointed in him. 
“Fine, just promise me no dicks.” He agrees, with a sigh. 
Eddie cackles. “Don’t you worry man, just watch the master work.” 
Steve rolled his eyes.
Does actually hang around, if only to turn on his cassette player and point out where all his tapes are. 
Leaves when Munson momentarily stops “redecorating” in order to trash Steve’s taste in music, in alphabetical order. 
“I get it, I’m a mainstream prick, you jerk.” He calls over his shoulder as he exits. “Now I’m going to go where I won’t be insulted, and see if Cunningham needs anything.” 
(She doesn’t, but does playfully insult him, having overheard the conversation. 
“Well fuck me I guess.” Steve mutters with a sigh, as she laughs at him.)

You can Bake!? - Jon Kent x Reader
Reader loves to bake, Jon loves to eat! (And he loves her!!) a match made in heaven. now if only reader would see that too!
femelle reader / she her used / TW: topic of food / 1300 words
- - - 
Sigh, there she is again. Walking up the steps to his house with something that smells AMAZING in her hands.  He can hear her footsteps, but dares not to spoil the surprise. What can it be this time? Chocolate? Red Velvet? Cake or cookies? Only one way to find out. The anticipation is killing him as Y/N hasn't even rang the doorbell yet. He tries not to act too excited, but the minute her finger pushes the button, Jon is (literally) flying down the staircase. He opens the door before the ring tone can finish (oops) and welcomes in his best friend ever. Who looks perfect, as ever. Okay maybe he has feelings beyond just friendship, okay maybe definitely. Jon tries to play it cool, just a coincidence that he was walking past the door the moment Y/N pressed the bell. Smooth Jon, Smooth. Jon?     Jon?
He snaps out of his inner dialogue to see Y/N staring back up at him.
"Uhm..   may I come in?" 
Dang it! She was just standing there waiting for me this whole time! Jon you big oaf! C'mon man we gotta do better if-
"Of course sweetie, come on in.", his mom says. "Jon honey move over-" and lightly pushes him to the side to invite his longtime friend and obvious crush in the house. 
Jonathan is barely recovering from his first daydream daze, but goes along with whatever his mom said. Lois Lane to the rescue, again. 
She gives him one more push to follow after Y/N, but not without a quick "Look alive Loverboy!", as she goes to the family room to retrieve Clark. 
He finds Y/N in the kitchen setting down her latest creation. She unwraps the foil and looks around for 
"Ooh what is it this time Y/N? It smells so good!" 
Y/N pipes up with joy, "Blueberry Lemon Cakes! They're one of my newest recipes I was trying out. I didn't know if I wanted to add some extra vanilla or-"
And there she goes. Jon has no idea what she's talking about but wow keep going Y/N. With her sweet voice, shining appearance, and even sweeter smells Jon is in sensory overload. A big rumble snaps him out. Wait, was that him? 
"Oh my goodness you must be hungry! And here I am just rambling off let me get the spatula- OH I forgot! Shoot, I'll be right back"
"wait, no. don't go." he wants to say, but the words don't come out. His eyes chase her figure and she hurries out of the house. 
Meanwhile his parents walk in with knowing expressions, well- his dad has his eyes completely locked on the cakes but equally knowing nonetheless.  
Not a word is said, but the message is clear. Mama Kent and Papa Kent have some work to do. Looks like Clark has a phone call to make. 
"Here I am!", Y/N reenters with her special baking spatula passed down from generation.
 "Now let's get this party started!"
Y/N carefully cuts the cakes into delectable bites and passes them out. She waits expecting full reviews and criticisms, knowing she can get the best out of a family of star studded journalists and hearty Kryptonians. Y/N loves sharing her baked goods and with the quality of her baking, the Kents have granted her an all access permanent pass. Y/N is incredibly skilled in her craft and has built a long term loyal tasting panel. She even brings treats for Krypto! All safe and homemade of course. The Kents adore Y/N, but one Kent in particular has feelings that are more than just platonic. 
Jonathan Kent has it bad, but she has it all! With her beauty, kindness, her skills, her love to share, and she is invested in her hobbies! Jon wants to be open with his feelings, but doesn't want to lose or mess up what they have. What if she never comes over to visit again! He wouldn't just miss out on her awesome baking, but one of his best friends. He has other friends of course, but this isn't like Damian, Dick, or his brother Conner. He cares for Y/N in a totally different way. 
He loves the way she laughs when she beats him at video games, he loves the way she can talk for hours about anything she likes, he loves when he invites her for a day at the park with Krypto. She's always so good with him! Yet, now she's gone. The gift has been passed out and Y/N went back home. Jon feels a bittersweet taste not in his mouth, but in his heart. 
This happens every time. Every time Y/N comes, she has to go. 
This is how Jon found out his feelings were more than the usual. He doesn't just love her for her qualities or how she gives him food or whatever. He just loves... HER. He is always thinking about her. Here or not. Planned or unplanned he wants to see her and be with her. 
Clark comes back to the family room after washing dishes to find his son, looking outside, moping in the same spot he was in as Y/N's car pulled out of the driveway. 
Yeah, it's time to make a phone call. 
* * * 
About 2 weeks later, Y/N gets a text on her phone. 
"Hi Y/N, this is Clark. Kansas City is playing this Friday and we're going to have a get together, would you like to join?"
"Sounds fun! I'll be there :)"
Friday comes around and the house is full of hustle and bustle! Ma Kent and Pa Kent are here, and Conner brought Krypto! (Good thing you brought some dog cookies!)
This time, you brought your tried and true recipe. Orange White Chocolate Chip cookies. Made with real oranges! 
You greet everyone and settle in. You start a nice chat with Ma and Pa about your recent academics and Conner asks how work is going. Krypto gives you kisses and sits down between Lois and Clark. 
During halftime, Clark speaks up, 
"Jonno, why don't you get the dessert from the kitchen?" 
"Okay, dad."
When Jon comes back, you are not prepared for what you see and smell. 
A full platter of intricately designed peanut butter cookies. 
Your surprise only doubles when the platter is set down and consumed rapidly, and Conner goes
"Wow Jon, these are good! Great job!"
and his family "MMmM"s in agreement with faces full of cookies. 
You are taken back by this! JON CAN BAKE? AND HE DIDNT TELL YOU!? You feel taken back and betrayed!  Oh the humanity and kryptonian! How could he hide this from you? Why did he his this from you??
You turn to Jon with a multitude of questions when you see his face as confused as you are, but he's probably just daydreaming again. 
"Jon, you made these???", you ask
You can only hear the TV and Krypto panting before Conner elbows Jon,
"uh Yeah! Yes. Yes I did."
Cardinal sin of the Kent family, to lie- but Clark feels like this falsehood can be forgiven. He asked Ma, Pa, and Conner to come over and they're all in on it. Ma actually baked the cookies, but now Jon has something to bond with Y/N over. No more looking out through the window! His son has a chance to get closer to the girl he loves, he'd better not lose it! 
"Jon, they're delicious! You have to give me the recipe. Or maybe we can bake together some time!"
...
...
Another elbow from Conner later, 
"Yes!  Yeah Yes I'd love to"
"Cool, we can be baking buddies!"
And all the Kents feel like they just hit a touchdown. 
As the game plays on and the Y/N keep munching, Jon can't help the stupid smile plastered on his face. 
His heart is fluttering, but thankfully only his brother and father can hear it.

My favourite scenes of the movie:
Royal Wedding and Cakegate: Alex’s behaviour and expressions are excellent! The part when he grabs Henry with the hand full of cake, and then he puts the dirty glass on Henry’s hand… hilarious, that entire sequence is just too damn funny!!!
The first meeting after the cakegate: their banter is great, and the tension already!!!! Henry’s “Sweetheart”. The interviews!!!
Supply closet scene: funny. But also, “I need to get out of here” conversation.
Alex in the strawberry costume. (Are the stuffed toys that become friends supposed to represent them?!?) Henry laughing and talking with the little girl.
Outside the hospital: the banter and the flirting! Alex’s “I need to get out of here” and Henry’s ‘he’s an idiot, but I love him’ face.
The entire montage of them texting. Alex laughing in class at the ‘but we were ever so careful, dear’. I loved how they did that sequence, with them appearing on screen. Cornbread and them lying in bed (but not really). Again… the banter/flirting. “I’m hanging up now”
New Year's Eve party: Their looks at each other, their banter (yes, again). Alex, unable to get his eyes off of Henry. Henry, unable to get his eyes off of Alex. The jealousy. The yearning. Henry’s dancing.
Their talk outside, and their first kiss!! Alex’s face after the kiss (the realization)
Alex’s talk with Nora. “He grabbed my hair in a way that made me understand the difference between rugby and football” (whatever that means). The denial and Nora’s frustration (same girl!)
Gala event/dinner: Alex eagerly waiting for Henry’s arrival, the way that everything ceased to exist the moment Henry appeared, including the journalist (which, same!!!).
Red room scene: Alex being really nervous. “Shut up, stop talking.” The kiss(es). The desperation. Acting like fools when interrupted!!
Stonehenge/Big Ben… “Henry and I are much happier against walls” lmfao!! And, obviously, “the night is young, ma.” The test of that scene and Henry’s face after hearing Alex said that he was going to make bad things to him (understandable)
Alex’s bedroom scene: their chemistry. Their conversation. “Just to put it out there.” Alex already showing his need to touch Henry, and holding Henry’s hand. Henry already showing his efforts to keep things casual by letting go of Alex’s hand. Alex’s disappointment, but pretending that everything is alright. Henry inviting Alex to the polo game because he can’t help himself, and playing with his ring because he was nervous. Their smiles and looks as Henry leaves (Henry’s sigh of 'can’t believe this happened', and Alex’s chuckle of 'that actually happened').
Polo scene: Just all of it. “You hungry? Yeah, I could eat”
Their date: their looks, smiles, the tension. “He is.”
“Prince Henry belongs to Britain. Henry Fox has to belong to himself or else he will banish.” “Can he ever belong to someone else?” “Only momentarily.” Their sad looks….. Alex wanting to hold his hand, Henry wanting that but knowing that he can’t, “not here.” (Alex’s love language is definitely physical touch)
Their first time: Alex’s nervousness, Henry’s reassurance. The intimacy, the slight awkwardness, the yearning, their hands… “I can’t believe how wrong I was about you” “Most people are.”
Their conversation in bed. Henry’s “I’m learning” and the kiss on Alex’s shoulder and Alex’s answering smile.
Alex smiling in the plane (he’s in love)
The montage with their emails…
New York hotel room scene: the eagerness and desperation, their laughs and happiness at being together.
Their entire conversation while on the bathrobes.
Zahra in the room scene: hilarious!!! “Technically, I’m the spare” and “would it make any difference if I told you to never see him again?” Alex's answering “No” straight away, without thinking.
Alex tells his mom scene. Love that mother and son duo.
Montage during the lake house.
Henry singing Queen… Alex completely in love (which, understandable)
Alex’s talk with his dad. Alex deciding to jump.
Scene in the platform on the lake. I love love that scene!! Alex not being able to not touch Henry tenderly. Declaring his love for Henry. Henry panicking, knowing that he wants all that but can’t have it. His expression of sadness and horror. Henry underwater. Henry sad because he knows he will break Alex’s heart, and his own.
Henry’s and Bea’s talk. “I wonder if what we do has any meaningful impact on people’s lives” callback to the conversation with Alex after their first time. Montage of sad Henry😢😢… Bea wanting to comfort Henry during the reunion.
Alex’s talk with Nora. “Get your man.”
Confrontation in Kensington Palace. “The man I love” Honestly, just the entire dialogue…. But also, “Henry, nothing will ever happen to you.”
Museum scene. Just the entire scene. Perfection! Sweet, lovely, tender, them!! History, uh? (Sobs!!!)
Henry waking up and smiling because he is with Alex, in bed, cuddling
The exchange of ring and key… my heart!!!! That hug, though…was everything!
Henry freaking out because he can’t talk with Alex.
Alex’s speech, and the montage of Henry struggling with everything. “I fell in love with a person, who happens to be a man, and that man happens to be a prince. He has captures my heart and makes my life immeasurably better. I love his Royal Highness Prince Henry George Edward James Hanover-Stewart Fox.” And the montage of their time together being happy!!! (sobs again!!)
Zahra and Alex’s scene while he talks about missing Henry… she’s just too hilarious!
“Baby” 😭😭😭
Hugging on the stairs, “I will break the sound barrier for you.” Henry playing the piano to Alex and then them playing together. “Proud to be your boyfriend.”
While waiting for the king, Henry wanting to play with his ring, but Alex is wearing it… The look they share.
Stephen Fry as the King
Alex and Henry holding hands, declaring and defending their love, sharing little smiles and small touches.
Henry noticing the people outside. “The world will know me for who I am.” “I love you” “I love you more.”
Holding hands during the Madam president speech
“We won.” “We won.” (you sure did!!) ❤️🤍💙
End credit scene…hilarious

Love Interview - Phil Lewis (L.A Guns) 💕
Tumblr media
Year : 1989
Words count : 1432
> Phil Lewis X C < @sunsetdaydreamer
It wasn't so long ago since L.A Guns released Cocked And Loaded, their second studio album and now they were on tour
They were around Los Angeles, really close to where Cee lived
Cee is a 25 year old music journalist, she interviewed a lot of musicians since she first started her career in 1982 when she was only 18
She worked for Hit Parader, she really loved her work, she loved talking to musicians and learning about their life, she was at her work when her boss called her
— Okay, well...as far as we know til now, L.A Guns is on tour for their second studio album, Cocked And Loaded, they are around here and i see a good opportunity to put them again on Hit Parader! — the boss looked at her with a smile — Talk to their vocalist Phillip Lewis
— That's great! It will help em' with their album! It sounds so cool, I'm in! Where are the members in this moment? — Cee smiled
— They're in a hotel really near from here, Four Seasons Hotel
— Oh, God, it's practically here! I'm going there! — Cee smiled
— Great, good luck! — The boss said and smiled
— Thanks, Jordan! — Cee smiled and got out holding her purse happily
...
Cee got into the hotel and asked about L.A Guns and the lady told her the rest of the members were hanging out and the only one at the hotel is Phil, who was at room 204 (7th floor)
— Oh thank you — Cee smiled and got into the elevator and waited until it was in the 7th floor
She kept looking at the door and she stood at room 204, she breathed deep and knocked the door
She heard him say : — oh, i'm coming — his voice is so shy and soft
— Hi, I'm Cee, nice to meet you Phil! — Cee said as he opened the door
— Hi, nice to meet ya too — Phil smiled and he leaned his body trying to seduce since he's such a flirty guy
— could we hang out? Look, I'm a music journalist and i work dor Hit Parader, i would really like to know if you'd like to give an interview — Cee said as she blushed
Phil laughed softly and shy, then he smiled and said, looking into her eyes — why not?
He turned off the lights and locked the door, he put the room keys into his "Rip And Tear" pants pocket
They were getting out of the hotel and then they were walking on the streets together
— So ummm... — Cee started and Phil immediately looked at her, she continued  — I listened to Cocked And Loaded and it's such an incredible album, you guys should reach a number 1 hit at least here in the U.S
Phil smiled and said : — Thank you darling
— You're welcome. — Cee smiled
They got into a restaurant and they sat into a table
— You were in band called Girl, with Phil Collen from Def Leppard, you guys released two studio albums in the early 80s, Sheer Greed and Wasted Youth, and later on the you disbanded, in Wasted Youth era, what led the band to be short lived that way? Could you explain? — Cee looked at him
— Actually, we described Girl as a poem, not an 8 part novel... we didn't want to become big at all, ya know — Phil said
— Why? — Cee went kinda serious
— Cause i don't think we were good enough to become big...we sounded terrible, except Phil Collen who is a fuckin talented and dedicated guitar player, so Def Leppard didn't get him in vain but...yeah that's it! We were not that nice, mostly in the U.K! — Phil said
— But...Phil, you were REALLY NICE! I think, i really do! Never in my life i have seen 5 glam boys singing and playing the way you did! But its okay, its your opnion anyway — Cee said
— Thank you kindly, darling — Phil smiled, flirty and started to rub her chin tenderly
Cee smiled shyly
— So...could you tell me about you? — Cee smiled
— Oh, yes of course! Ummm...i was born in Hammersmith, England and...uh-, my mother was scottish and her family as well, and my dad is english. I actually have a step dad, who i call my old man or even dad since i never knew my biological father — Phil said calmly
— Oh, what about your mom? — Clara
— She passed away when i was around 5 or 6 years old...yeah, tough thing for a little kid to deal with, but okay, its life and that is what unfortunately happens to anyone. The only thing left for us is to accept and let it happen — Phil said
Cee felt her heart a bit heavy, she never imagined Phil got through this in his life, she decided not ask much about it
— I grew up with my then dad and its been wonderful. We travelled a lot, we went to Belgium, France, for examplem Oh, and Spain, by the way, i speak spanish too — Phil laughed, he had such soft and genuine laughter
Cee laughed as well
— So you experimented and even ate every kind of food and sauce around the world...? That's nice, really nice! Talking about foods, which food do you like the most? — Cee asked
— Ooooh, you just hit me hard now, Cee! — Phil laughed and started to think — Hummm, i need to say it's Ravioli — smiled
— Oh, same! — Cee smiled
— Oooh, thats wonderful! — Phil smiled
— Yes it is! ... Well, did you went to normal school, that you go there and gets back home later or boarding school? — Cee asked
— Boarding school. I lived in school from 8 to 16 years old and then i dropped out and started my real life. And i need to tell you, times living there were wonderful, but also a relief when i left — Phil laughed and Cee laughed too
— Did you have any friends there? — Cee asked
— Yes, i did! — Phil said
— That might be teasing but...what about the girls? — Cee laughed softly
— Oh, that's okay Cee, no problem! By the way i like to say something about him because its a funny thing. Well, girls from my class used to call me a freak and then the older girls were much nicer, not to mention that some of them used to flirt with me. I did the same and gave them that same flirt back to them — Phil laughed
Cee laughed as well — You're a nice guy, honestly, i see Boarding School made you a gentleman. I highly appreciate this —
— Oh, thanks! — Phil smiled
— No problem! And did you live somewhere else out of England, or Spain as you told? — Cee smiled
— Yes, i lived in Denver in the 70s, mid 70s. Around 1974, 76' — Phil said
— Oooh, interesting, nice! — Cee smiled with that — And...what are your favorite musicians? — asked
— Oooh, there are so many, Cee, but okay, the main ones are Heavy Metal Kids, as well as Gary Holton, Alice Cooper, Janis Joplin, David Bowie, Japan, Deep Purple, Rolling Stones and Black Sabbath. — Phil smiled
— Oooh, cool ones! And what about that one, "Japan"? — Asked Cee
— Oh, yes — Phil laughed — I am not referring to any japanese band, and they're not japanese, they are actually english. They were my main influence when i was in Girl, they were OUR main influence! The 2 first Japan albums still rocks my world, honestly. I highly recommend you to listen to it, you will not regret it — he laughed
— Oooh, interesting story! — Cee laughed softly
— If you look at us in some old Girl memorablias, mostly at me youre gonna see some reasemblance between myself and David Sylvian, if you ever seen of course — Phil laughed
Cee laughed and then said — Ummm, i think ive ever heard that name...well, im gonna search more about it later — smiled
— Then they released other really nice albums, and then they disbanded. But its okay, i understand that — Phil diz
—Ye me too, thats the way it goes — Cee said
— You are a really easy person to talk to, ya know, i quite like talking to you — Phil smiled as he drank his champagne
Cee smiled — Same — she unconsenquently took his hand he took hers, smiling as well
They talked and then it was time to go, but it such a great night, and OBVIOUSLY Cee would add the best parts to the issue

Uuuuuh you know what, mini bios time.

Kinda a grump, keeps to herself most times, but is also a little gremlin.
Always wears a witch hat bc she thinks it looks cool + it holds her stuff ( like her baseball bat)
^ has a baseball bat. No she does not play baseball ( I think she would like it tho)
Wants to learn fireball but it's HARD ( she has a natural affinity to plant n death magic than anything else)
Sees that Bo is tired and tries her best to not cause many problems for him.
Molly
16
She/Her ( cis)
Half - Vampire
Pan
Knew Zara ever since they were babies
Very bubbly and sweet. Very popular at school.
As a half vampire she doesn't need to rely on blood as much as her dad, but does enjoy blood based smoothies.
Doesn't like transforming into her more monstrous bat form cause she thinks she looks ugly :(
( currently) has a Interest in photography!
Grace
16
She/Her ( trans)
Werewolf
Lesbian
Childhood friends with Zara and Molly, though she came a little later.
Number 1 Instigator and Enabler
Still the most level headed of the three. She just likes to have her fun.
Is the class president. Has dreams of actually being someone that can cause change in the world. ( She doesn't want to be an actual president tho)
Is the oldest of 4-5( still figuring it out). Really good big sis, love her sibs ( all of them are adopted btw and are different types of supernatural)
Bo
25
He/Him ( trans)
Null*
Gay
90% of the shit Zara likes is bc of him. Unfortunately that also includes her desire to cast fireball. Minecraft.
Works a shit ton of jobs since their moms are constantly busy with work and thus need to be out of the house. So, essentially, he's Zara's legal guardian.
^ so far I know he works in retail and as a freelance bounty hunter ( being a Null means he doesn't get cursed by cursed items). But he works other jobs too.
T i r e d and incredibly depressed but keeps going for Zara.
Hasn't been in a relationship for years after a very shitty ex. Wants to start again ( with Jarah lmao) but is still nervous.
Genuinely a sweet guy despite his appearance ( tall, muscular, rbf and has tattoos n piercings). He dreams of opening a potion shop, since that's the only way he can do magic without having magic.
Aliyah
25
She/her ( cis)
Human
Bisexual
Has been best friends with Bo since middle school or high school. They've been ride or die ever since.
Number One babysitter when Bo is busy or just needs to fucking crash for the day. She's essentially the girl's big sis.
Family came from a long line of Monster Hunters, but uuuuuuh. Nowadays the supernatural and humans are ( kinda) chill and monster hunting like that is looked down upon. She was still trained to fight but overall she doesn't care.
Is an aspiring journalist, but works at a shitty place. How's bounty hunting with Bo to make sure he doesn't die and relieve stress.
Wants a girlfriend ( or boyfriend) so bad but alas. No luck.
Losing braincells over the bo n jarah thing ( she knows)
Jarah
25
He/Him
WizardWitch/Magi
bisexual
^ I don't think he knows this yet.
A prodigy of magic, was pretty much pushed into magic as soon as his parents realized his potential. He went to an elite school and everything. Pretty much the top of his kind.
He wasn't happy however, no matter how much he tried to convince himself he is. He always loved baking. Meeting Bo and Aliyah actually made him quiet his old job and work at a cafe.
^ his parents were not happy about that. Been strained ever since. Though maybe it was always strained
Constantly has restricted his abilities, out of habit and fear of them. Still offers to teach Zara about magic though.
Feelings for Bo is mutual, but he doesn't realize this for a while. When he does he....kinda panics.
Moving in from that, he loves baking, and is very skilled at mixing magic into it, enchanting flavors and emotions. Everyone loves his sweets :)
*Magi is the general term for magic users in this world. Witch, Wizard, and the like are ultimately just titles, but each has their own history with it.
*A Null is someone who is born with an immunity to magic, but at the cost of not being able to perform it. You cannot become a Null just to be clear. Bo was born as a Null, he never became on, got it? Good.
And yeah that's everything I wanted to share.

I dont think people have asked this before, and I knows its pretty specific... but could you maybe do something with AK!riddler with a significant others parent that doesnt like him? Like its clear the mom/dad/brother/sister or whatever, doesnt approve of him and actively tries to make him look bad? But their significant other tells him they know their family members toxic view of him but they dont listen to them?
Disapproval
Arkhamverse Edward Nygma X Reader
I love this a lot omg 💝 I hope I did the request justice 🥹
CW family disputes, hints of abuse
The moment Edward was told about your family's curiosity about him, he was partly irked. Does he really need to meet them? But then again when you think about it, this certain step in a relationship is what one would call a leap. A big one at that, and he really does love you with all his heart (the one where others say he is lacking but no, it's only reserved for his one and only other lesser half) . And not to mention, how your parents would be stoked to see the smartest man in the world with their child! It wouldn't hurt to give your parents some sort of attention, why, everyone would be honoured to meet the Riddler! He supposes that it's because of you, and only you, would he go and meet about people who are, in his eyes, lesser than he is.
He's made his research, apart from your passing comments about your parents and siblings, from what he's heard you have a common familial relationship with them. That being fondness and distaste, well that's what he heard as a normal family interaction would be, not that he knows what it looks like but anyways-- your family couldn't be more normal, nuclear type of normal that is.
A family of five in a quiet neighborhood where you grew up into your lovely, precious current self. There was your mother who stayed at home to tend to you, your siblings and the house. Your father worked a boring office job coming home to his wife and three children, he wasn't all that emotionally close to any of his children, even suspecting of having an affair, passed away just three years ago. The eldest of the children is your sister, Lea, currently a journalist from Bludhaven. The second child is your brother Anthony, currently a kindergarten teacher at your hometown. You were the youngest, which had automatically made your older siblings hold their power over you with their age and yet they are naturally obligated to be protective of you.
In one instance made prominent to him, was when you recall your sister taking a defensive stance against your parents when you declined their career choices for you in college, as your parents would only pay for your education if you chose a certain lists of what they want for you. In the end, Lea, only a year in her career, had opted to answer to the financial needs of your first few semesters before your parents relented and helped Lea to pay for your college. As for your older brother, you always mentioned how he was always there for you, being by your side amid the tumultuous times wherein all you needed was an embrace.
Your family seems warm. Of course he feels no jitters when meeting them, he knows he is no common man to feel such a thing, why would he be nervous?
"My, look at you! Oh, my baby!" Your mother takes you in her arms, momentarily rendering you breathless before she turns her attention towards the very person she's been looking forward to meet.
So when the front door of your childhood home inevitably opens, he was faced by your mother, where he found hints of your features from her. She greeted you with welcoming arms, Edward catching a whiff of her sweet perfume. In more than one way, you were similar to your mother. How she let him in without much of a thought of his character, it was as if by nature she immediately knew that he isn't the sensationalised 'deranged lunatic obsessed with riddles and puzzles'.
"Y/N! It's so nice to see you again!" Anthony takes you in his arms, playfully ruffling your hair.
Upon entering the house, you were then greeted by your older brother, who, unlike your mother, froze in his tracks for a period of time.
"You must be Anthony. I've heard a lot about you." Your older brother snaps from his reverie when he realised the dark haired male holding his hand out.
"Good things, I hope..." Despite his anxiety, Anthony comes up with a response.
Edward didn't take notice the way Anthony froze, but he took note at how his hand shook within Edward's grip. And he was proud at the fact that he is still intimidating, why, they should thank you. If they weren't family, he wouldn't have thought twice about getting them killed to meet a goal. Just another name in a statistic. But anyways!
"Where's Lea?" You asked. Your eldest sister had always been a punctual nut, so it was weird to not see her front and center.
"Oh, caught up in traffic perhaps. You know her, she always bite off what she can't chew." Your mother dismissively waved her hand. "Now, Anthony could you please watch the cooking for me? I believe it's time to... Let this young man know who they're dating."
And so as Anthony tends to the kitchen, your mother has Edward to herself in the living room, with your various photo albums for him to show. You were glaring at Edward at the duration of it all, as he cockily smirked up at you and took a variety of pictures from your childhood and you couldn't do anything about it.
"And this was Y/N when they were in a play. What play was it again?" Your mother turns to you.
Simmering from embarrassment, you barely squeak out, "Romeo and Juliet, mom. I didn't even have a major role in it."
"Yes, but look at you! You were on stage!"
"I agree, Y/N. You look lovely." Edward agrees, smugly taking another picture for his blackmail collection.
"Edward..."
"Oh relax, calm yourself Y/N, it's just lighthearted." Your mother teases.
"Hey Y/N, can you help me here for a sec?" Anthony exclaims from the kitchen.
You sighed, sitting up and leaving your boyfriend and mother laughing amongst themselves and enter the kitchen to help your older brother... Well, he didn't seem to need much help, everything was settled there, the counters were clean, the dishes are washed and the food was just waiting to finish.
Without a prompt he pulls you by the wrist and walked you over a corner, where he repeatedly glanced over his shoulder and checked the volume of his voice.
"Anthony, what's--"
"Edward Nygma? As in, the Edward Nygma? The Riddler?" He spoke with such a rush you were almost sure he said that all in one breath.
"Yes, he is..." Your cheerful demeanor diminished when you realised how solemn Anthony was at the moment. "Why?"
"He's the Riddler, he's dangerous, how could you have not realised that?" There was a certain panic in his frantic voice, his grip still tight around your wrists. "Are you being held hostage? You can always tell me--"
"What? No! He's my boyfriend, he can never hurt me!"
"He's still a dangerous man and I'm worried about you!"
"I'm fine Anthony, he can never hurt me." You reassure, slipping from his clutch. Though there was a time you backhanded you across the face when you looked over his shoulder while he was working, but it was your fault because it was bothering him. If you don't do that again, he wouldn't hit you. At least you weren't being put out as a hostage for Batman to rescue.
"He's a the same guy who kidnapped journalists and Lea was one of them." Anthony's complexion paled with his unnerving and unneeded concern for you.
"That was before we were dating! He would never--"
"It doesn't matter! Why are you so damn stubborn?"
Despite the tension rising amongst you and your brother, you remain unheard from the living room.
"He would never hurt me. I promise..."
Anthony remain unconvinced, but he knew you wouldn't cave in that easily. Seeing as him asking for your assistance in the kitchen as a ruse, you return to the living room, where your mother and Edward were still going through old photographs.
Cooking was done, Anthony finally exits the kitchen to join the rest of you in the living room where he kept warily glancing over your boyfriend. So far, Edward was enjoying himself, why wouldn't he? Your mother has nothing but sweet to him and of course, Edward does love it when he's so effortless as establishing himself as a threat. And Anthony wasn't doing anything about it all, he just quivers in his corner like a helpless little dog.
Based on Anthony's reaction, you can only imagine how much of a hot mess it would be if your sister were to arrive. And she is a force that cannot be reckoned with, similar to that of your boyfriend's stubborn little head and sharp tongue. You wouldn't want to subject Edward under your sister, she knew him and does a dreadful job at keeping a filter in her vocabulary, she didn't know him the way you know him. Lea would spit fire at Edward with that tongue of hers.
After a long week after his defeat from Batman, this would be the first time you'd see him smile and with Lea's arrival, her blind distaste for people 'like' Edward, and her unabashed self... It won't go well for your boyfriend at all, he just wants to be happy for once, why can't they grant him this?
"And this is the three of them on Lea's graduation! Oh, I remember Lea was complaining about how her younger siblings are taller than her even when she's wearing heels."
"How tall is she, ma'am?" Edward asks your mother.
"Well this photo is five years ago hmm let me think... Oh I don't know, but she is now shorter than Y/N! It's fun to watch her pout when others are taller than her. If she sees you, she would be seething!"
Oh she'll be seething, alright.
"It's been lovely mom, but Edward and I will be on our way." You blurted out after thickly swallowing. It's best to retreat whilst Lea hasn't arrived yet.
"We are?" Edward raises a brow.
"But we haven't started dinner yet. Are you two heading off elsewhere?" Your mother asked.
"Yes." "No." There came the conflicting answers brought by the couple in unison, causing your mother and brother to look at you with furrowed brows.
You glanced over Edward, who seems to be confused of your sudden incline to get out of here. Weren't you who suggested to meet your family? Why, of all sudden, are you backing out? Now that he's enjoying himself?
"A-at your appointment with Doctor Crane, remember?" You stammered, your eyes wide looking over Edward.
His eyes squint at the slightest. Why the sudden eagerness to leave? "Yes, but didn't we discuss that we go tomorrow?"
"I-I don't think we did... Did we?"
"Yes, we certainly did."
"Oh how about this;" your mother butts in. "Since Lea is running late, how about we start dinner without her?"
Before you can protest, Edward answers without your input. "Of course, Mrs. L/N. That would be lovely."
By this, you were tense in your seat. Your brother's cooking was as good as you've always remembered, but you barely touched your food. The one time you tried to swallow it down you were met with the dread from the rampant thoughts about your sister's arrival and whatever hell she'll bring with her. Edward, who was seated beside you, has been confused at your sudden insistence to leave when he's having so much fun. Given, he requested you'd leave once he deemed it, but he doesn't want to leave. Not yet at least.
When you heard a vehicle stop by the driveway, you can only freeze in your seat. With no more time to run, you were settled to go down with a fight if ever it came to it. It would only be wishful thinking to be dreaming about Lea not opening her mouth about Edward.
"I'm here! Sorry I'm late." You heard Lea by the door, taking her shoes off and setting them aside.
"Lea! Come join us for dinner!" Your mother calls.
You can barely look over your shoulder when Lea had walked through the door. She pulls her seat beside Anthony, across Edward but then she noticed there were no plates in her place. She continues to talk even after standing up to fetch herself a plate from the kitchen.
"Gosh I am so sorry for my being late, I had to run something by the office first and traffic was atrocious. Apparently, Nightwing is on a chase with some bad guys. Chief was forcing me to get a coverage of the event but I booked it out before he can call me over."
She must not have noticed Edward yet, as she busily chatters. Lea eventually returned to the dining room and finally settled on her seat. She looks up at Edward, though she doesn't recognize him yet.
"You must be Y/N's boy-..." There it was, the terror in her countenance as she stared at your boyfriend.
Let's see... He's won the adoration of your mother, the terror from your brother. And from your sister... Recognition.
"Is this a fucking joke?" Lea looks over you. From the background, you hear your mother hiss at her for using profanities at the table. You meekly looked up at her, seeing her point at him. "You do know who he is, right?"
"This isn't a joke, I am dating your sibling--"
"Oh no I don't believe I asked you that question, Riddler." She returns the scowl he's given her, just as scathing and wrathful. "Y/N look at me, why are you dating him?"
"Lea! Please!" Your mother attempts to calm your older sister, holding on her wrist and attempting to pull her down to her seat.
"Mom, this man has done bad things! I was one of the people he kidnapped that one time!"
"We weren't dating at the time!" For the first time you looked up at her, eyes brimming with tears.
"As if that'd made a difference! Hey you, you remember me right? Or am I just one of the few hundreds whose lives you altered severely? One of the traps you made permanently paralysed a coworker of mine!"
Edward clutches a cutlery from under the table. Would it be bad if he were to silence her permanently? He is fucking right there and she talks as if he isn't right in front of her. He felt like a child all over again, listening to adults talking about him whilst all he can do was to clutch his hands and look down.
"Lea!" You yell as a desperate attempt to get her to shut up, whilst you squeeze Edward's hand from under the table.
"What? I thought you weren't convinced he is a dangerous man?" She mocks.
"He would never hurt me!"
"His records in Arkham says otherwise! He's a narcissistic bitch! He 'loves' you, sure, but I doubt that he wouldn't hurt you. You know I've been there." An abusive relationship for five years was what your sister endured. But you weren't enduring any battering from Edward at all, she wouldn't know what your relationship with him.
"You don't know him like I do!"
"I spent my days making reports about him and people like him! Dangerous people who are a threat to everyone whom they come in contact to and that inudes you regardless if he loves you or not!"
Like Anthony, you didn't want to further discuss this matter, especially when your sister refuses to back down and listen.
"This was a bad idea. We're leaving." Supressing a sob from the back of your throat, your message came out shaky. You stood from your seat, pulling Edward alongside you.
"Listen to me Y/N, I only want the best for you--"
"Oh my god, can you just please shut up for once?!"
Lea freezes in her tracks when you turned to yell at her. After that, your pace quicken and you no longer hear her attempting to have the last word, as she always does. And so you left your family back at your childhood home, leaving them stunned beyond their words.
The silence between you was deafening even after remove yourselves away from the tense situation back in your childhood home. You were particularly afraid to speak up, based on Edward's tensed countenance, only then did you notice him still clutching a knife in his hand and you figured to let him sit in silence whilst you drive away. The route back home to Gotham grew nearer, you took a glance over Edward on the passenger seat, who has somewhat cooled down.
"I'm sorry about my family. They shouldn't have talked to you that way. And I'm sorry for not defending you enough..." Warily glancing over him, he barely budged. You steady your breath with quivering jaws and you continue your statement. "I don't care about what they say, Edward... I know they're not true. They know nothing about us."
Still nothing. Even after you arrived, he makes an instant beeline for his workshop whilst you stayed in the car, steadying yourself. Your breathing continued with hurried huffs of air, tightly seeing your eyes shut in a poor attempt to stop yourself from crying.
Fuck, does he still even love you???

hey hey hey who wants some supporting character personalities and goals and other facts and junk from the TMNT Musical! AU
-Irma: resting bitch face for days, and her face is adorned with Cat eye glasses. April's best friend, who has dreams to be a journalist. Usually wears sher hair in a bun. She usually always has some retort, or quick witted remark. Never short on insults. However, she has a heart of gold, and loves her friends. She and April have been friends for years, and Irma literally comes to her house unannounced and April's dad is like "Irma, my second daughter, are you hungry?" It's great.
-Timothy: he wants to be like his dad, Baxter Stockman; a scientist. He, more than anything, wants his father praise and pride, but his father is usually at work, or just too busy for him. He tends to raid a certain junkyard, where he tends to see a silhouette of someone doing the same thing as he is. They became friends from afar, waving to each other when they see each other, and they make piles of things that they may not need, but the other might. They have never seen each other up close, however one time, the lights of the yard came on, and he saw a flash of green and purple duck behind a pile of junk. He's on his schools robotics team, btw.
-Mona Lisa, aka Monique Lisa: she had always wanted to go to space; to be an astronaut. When she was mutated, she thought she had to say goodbye to those dreams. However, Raph gave her hope, and she kept up her studies, hoping to make it to space one day. She never passes up an opportunity to infodump about space, but she loves when Raph will tell her a story. She especially loves it when he tells her about anything relating to Artemis. Mona has unending patience when it comes to Raph; he was the one who saved her, after all. He comes to rant and vent to her, who sits and listens. Then, when he calms down, she asks him for a story, which he gladly tells. It works out very well.
-Casey's mom: I don't have a name for her yet (I'm leaning towards Jackie) but she is going to be a doctor. She and Casey moved to New York from a reserve (their Native American) to get a better job. She felt bad about making Casey so upset, but she had to do it. She feels that it's what's best for him. She loves him more than anything, and would give anything for him. It's hard being a single mother with a job where she can't see her son all the time; but she makes an effort to never miss a hockey game, and to stock the fridge with food he likes, and try and keep up with his favorite current bands and friends. (Can you tell I love her)
im working on Leatherhead, Mondo gecko, Bebop, Rockssteady, etc.

If T@ylor goes after Buck; both Bobby & Eddie will go after T@ylor
Revenge seems to be the backdrop for T@ylor's ethical conflict in 5x17 and 5x18 and while her goal is to take down the whole 118, she's specifically targeting Buck, Bobby and Eddie.  KNOW THIS: T@ylor is a sociopath and she's pissed about the fact that Buck's found family has reconciled. Remember she's all alone because her dad killed her mom; therefore she was clinging to Buck like he was clinging to her.  Everyone is back at the 118 except for Eddie but he was there fighting the Dispatch Center fire in 5x16 at Buck's side just like he used to be. 
Since Buck doesn't have to cling to her anymore, (hindsight to 5x13 "Fear O Phobia" when Buck told Maddie he was 'clinging' to her), she's reverting back to the B!+&@ she was in 2x6 "Dosed" who will do anything for a story.  She realized in "May Day" when the whole 118 was walking out of Dispatch arms linked that her time of clinging to Buck was over.  That's why she approached L#cy; she was warning her to leave the 118 before T@ylor attempts to destroy the 118 with whatever revenge plot she has planned.
Her goal is to take down the 118 but more specifically she's targeting Bobby and Buck. In yesterday's blog post titled "Breaking News: T@ylor Ke!!y is a Liar" and one of last week's posts titled "Buck just remembered the real T@ylor Ke!!y"; these points were included.  Key points:  While the majority of the audience has been focused on the "kiss" between Buck and L#cy from 5x11 "Outside Looking In" being the catalyst for the BT breakup, only a few people have noticed how T@ylor's personality has been OOC for the entirety of season 5.  In one episode she's a detective, then a doting girlfriend, then a journalist, then a Power Ranger, one of the Pod People or a Stepford Wife😕😕😕.  The only logical explanation for this is one that follows the narrative dots that connect to a revenge plot.
If she goes after Buck in any way shape or form, she better watch her back because, in 5x16 "May Day", Bobby said "you mess with my kid you mess with me" (foreshadowing because if she messes with Buck, she'll be messing with Bobby).  Everyone knows Bobby is Buck's pseudo dad and he will fight for him just like when he entered the Dispatch fire to get May out. He risked his own life for her and he will do the same for Buck because he won't lose anymore of his kids.  He lost his whole family in Minnesota and please believe he won't let that happen again.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
If she hurts Bobby, then she better get ready for a fight because Buck will lose it.  He's already almost lost Bobby too many times in the past, 2x6 "Dosed", 3x9 "Fallout" and 5x16 "May Day". Buck was in a daze in 5x16 watching Bobby while Hen was checking him over.  In 3x9, Buck told Bobby "I know I do dumb things sometimes and I generally drive you crazy. But you're an important person in my life Bobby; one of the most important. And I don't know what I would do if anything were to happen to you" (foreshadowing for anyone including T@ylor if they try to hurt Bobby).  Buck said he didn’t know what he would do, well the audience is about to find out.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Eddie already hates T@ylor and he figured out she was a BS artist way back in 2x6.  He can't stand her guts and the look he gave her in 5x11 was like 'if you don't get your trifling @$$ out of my house right now...🤪🤪🤪🤪'. 
Tumblr media
If she messes with Buck while Christopher's around, it will be curtains for her.  She better not mess with the family Eddie chose.  She was finally ok with Buck and Eddie's relationship after 5x10 "Wrapped in Red" because Eddie left the 118.  But in 5x16 she saw him in some turnout gear walking on Bobby's left side with Buck on Bobby's right side and she realized it's over now because Buck was standing next to his dad with the love of his life on his other side🙃🙃🙃🙃. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So to throw Buck off of her revenge plan she stepped to L#cy while she was in Buck's line of sight so that he would see them talking.  He had no idea what they were saying but she wanted him to think it was about the kiss.  It wasn't.  That was a warning and L#cy missed it.  L#cy wasn't around in 2x6 so she doesn't know anything about T@ylor’s failed news story on the 118.
Tumblr media
Finally the dumpster fire that is still season 5 is about to get good, especially when Buck finally ends his dead relationship with T@ylor and sends her and her belongings packing. Let’s get ready to rumble.

Don's motivation for getting married was admittedly spur of the moment but when you're watching someone you love get sicker and sicker, well it's hard to not want to grab life with both hands.
And it's unlikely Charlie will be the one to give her those movie mom moments so yeah he marries his girl and lets his dad string fairy lights in the back garden and he dances with his mom as she fusses over him. It's a beautiful moment. He's got his mom, his dad is twirling his new bride and he sees the flash of the camera go off. 
It's a small party with only those closest to them present and it's all for his mom. He knows that and his wife knows it too. But as he smiles down at her, head resting on his chest as they sway into the night, he's starting to admit that it was for him too. 
And yeah, he likes the way he looks in a wedding ring. Suits him. Suits her more.
I think there's some bitterness there for Journalist, too. Like don't get her wrong, she loves Don, and she loves Don's family, and she gets it, but there are some days when she wonders why she wasn't enough to want on her own. It's a crack in their foundation from the beginning of their marriage. She wonders on the really, really late nights if Don would ever have married her if Margaret had never gotten sick.
On the good nights, she thinks maybe he would've.
On the awful nights, she's certain that he wouldn't.

It makes me sad thinking about Jancy and college. Because I think Nancy would understand if Jonathan is honest with her about college. How he's scared to leave his mother and brother. How he always dreamed about going to NYU but knows that it might only be a dream. Nancy would understand but he doesn't want to burden Nancy.
It makes me sad as well just because neither of them would want to hurt the other. Jonathan was willing to throw away NYU to be with her but then he started thinking about his family and he's willing to throw his relationship away for them to keep them safe but also because he doesn't want to be the reason she holds anything back. He wants her to go after her dreams and become the best journalist and take the world by storm. He doesn't see himself having that ability. He even recognizes Nancy would, in a sense, understand why he doesn't want to leave his family and he knows she'd give up her dream college for him.
I think the main issue of this is the fact Jonathan sees his father in him. And he knows his mom gave up a lot as a parent for him and Will and he doesn't want that for Nancy. He loves her so much and he's scared he'd hurt her like his dad did his mom. He's scared of the type of man he'd grow up to be and he doesn't have confidence in himself and his abilities which is really sad because Jonathan is smart, resourceful, and an amazing photographer. They'd be an amazing journalistic duo.
I think they just need to talk it out. And I think Jonathan needs to talk to Joyce about his concerns and I kind of would like to see Will telling Jonathan he'd be okay.
