Hiiii!!! Would you mind doing headcannons / a fanfic where Husk has a crush on the reader and one day they ask him if they could cover being a bartender for a while to give him a small break (and to chat with Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb bc they are sitting at the bar too) and he agrees, not thinking that they would actually be able to make any drink or anything, but they actually end up being a phenomenal bartender (yet has never told or shown anyone until now), and it make him flustered as he has an even bigger crush on them now (which he thought was literally impossible). Thank youuuu!!!! 💖💖💖 (Also I love ur work 💖✨)
I cant describe in words how your request made me feel lmao! and thank you so much! ( i could talk about this dynamic all day ♡♡♡

Tumblr media
The night sure was lively now that Angel Dust and Cherri Bomb came (literally) crashing through the front door.
You smiled, resting your head in your hands as you watched the two from the end of the bar. "Those two must be a handful for you," you teased, letting your eyes flit over to the grumpy old cat you adored.
He managed a smile, glancing over at the two who were downing shots like tomorrow didn't exist. "Yes they are," he mumbled.
"So why'd you come over here Whiskers? You know I'm still working on my drink."
"You know I gotta keep my customer's satisfied," his voice teased back- just as smooth as the whiskey he poured- how charming, you thought. "Can't leave you here all by yourself."
You nodded, feeling a blush creep over the tips of your ears and nose.
Although, you couldn't help but notice. . .
Husk, the charming gambling cat who bartended for the hotel, a cat you could've sworn- or hoped- wanted your attention most nights. . . stared at the pair across the bars edge with a tired eye.
You quietly followed his gaze, humming as you pondered the next move.
"Why don't you pour yourself a drink? On me," you slid your card over the polished wood, only to be stopped as soon as it hit the edge of the bar. Husk's fingers pushing gently against yours.
"It's bad luck for a bartender to drink on the job."
"Is that so? Sounds like superstition," you teased, sadly tucking the card into your pocket.
Doesn't usually stop him from doing it, you moped.
"Hey baby! You can buy me a drink, no strings of course!" Angel called over to you, bringing shameless attention to his chest and biting his lip.
The bar laughed with him, spirits deliciously high tonight now that the couple had joined.
You were glad for the change of pace, "You know what?" You pulled the card out again, raising three fingers so that Husk knew how much to pour "I will buy you that drink Angel."
Cherri and Angel celebrated by downing a shot each, the young overlord herself yelling into the air with glee at the score.
Your gaze lingered over to the two, the sounds of vodka and juice being poured next to you. "Husk?" you asked, not really turning to look at him.
"What's on your mind?"
You waited until the sounds of pouring stopped, little freckles of juice sticking to your hand. . . then you turned to him, a little unsure in what you were asking "This drinks for you."
With a gentle hand, you tried to stop him from sliding it over to you, and responded just as fast as his denial "Let me run the bar for the rest of the night!"
His confusion morphed into the classic doubtful Husk you knew: always keeping his guard up.
"Oh really," he rasped, leaning over the bar to hover right next to your face.
Maybe he was trying to intimidate you, or try to see through you. . . but you tried not to flinch at the challenge, watching his dark eyes narrow "And what do you get out of this?"
You shrugged, a dumb smile popping onto your lips "Time to sober up? How hard could it be?" you purred, relishing in the fact that Husk had recoiled from you.
Sitting across the bar, head cradled in your hands, smirking at him.
He sighed, letting his eyes roll "Alright, fine but-"
Before his sentence even finished, you were right next to him at the back of the bar, staring with a pep in your step at all of the liquors, juices, and garnishes he actually had back here.
"Hey I didn't say you could-"
"Sorry Husk," you pushed him out of the area, feeling a little unwelcome or foreign on this side of the bar.
I mean, you both did, but it wasn't an entirely bad feeling-yet.
"Heyy, the old kitty came to play with us!" Cherri teased, watching as Husk awkwardly took a seat next to the two.
"Finally!" Angel groaned, throwing an arm over Husk and pulling him into the fun.
"On second thought, I don't think this was a good idea," Husk unfurled himself from Angel's grasp.
"Come on Husk, you deserve a break!" Angel insisted.
"Yes! Here are the shots!" You laid the three previously poured shots onto the countertop, eagerly watching as Cherri and Angel picked theirs up, waiting for Husk to join them.
The old cat eyed the shot, the red liquid glimmering quite nicely against the bars wood-top, and back the the pair of smiling faces that awaited him "Fuck it, I could use a drink."
When he smiled, you felt it like your own, proudly watching as the unlikely trio threw the drinks back with a hiss.
"So, what'll it be guys?"
Cherri sighed, slinking over the bar with a devilish grin "Hate 'ta hound ya on your first day, but what can you make?"
You shrugged, the confidence of being behind the bar (and the previous drink you had) voiding any concerns or anxieties you would've had. "What kind of drinks were you thinking?"
"More fucking shots bitch!"
You smiled "Dirty hookers, jagerbombs, lemon drop shots. . . maybe a kamikaze?"
"Oh~" Cherri put a hand on her chest, feigning flattery, "Fucking all of 'em! And throw in a few snake bites for me!"
"Just the dirty hookers for me, doll."
The pair of deviants giggled, marveling at the bars newest bartender and talking to each other whilst you familiarized yourself with Husks' bar.
He keeps it well stocked, you thought. Speaking of which. . .
As you rummaged around for the appropriate bottles, you could feel a familiar burning at the back of your neck.
Husk was staring at you.
You blushed, trying not to make eye contact by busying yourself with this new found task. "What's with the face, Whiskers?"
You heard him grunt, "What was that?"
"What was what?"
"You an alcoholic or something?" he clarified, the sound of him running his empty shot glass against the table lying underneath Cherri and Angel's conversation.
You hummed, not really answering until you had everything set on the bar. Five shot glasses on either side, you took the two bottles in hand flipping them upside down with a smile.
The three watched with amusement as you flipped one bottle high up, counting in your head the number of ounces you were pouring with the other while catching the bottle just in time.
Husks stomach was doing flips, watching on with a mix of anxiety that you'd break something (or god forbid hurt yourself) and the fact that you were actually. . . laughing.
The alcohol in your hands, whiskey, rum, vodka- anything- flying between your hands with the debonaire smile on your face.
Every movement, every flip, every spin. It all looked-
Husk caught himself, throwing his gaze to the side and moping. Trying hard not to think about anything.
"Here you go!" You slid the shots over to the pair, sure that it'd keep them busy for a while. . . or at least a few minutes.
"So what'll it be, boss?" You leaned over the counter, solely focused on him now, with that smug smile on your face. . . or maybe you were still a little tipsy.
"Boss?"
"Sure," you shrugged "Your gonna pay me after right?" You laughed when his face dropped, assuring him it was a joke. "Come on Husk, its time for you to be served for once, what kind of drink do you want?"
He seemed to freeze, the little pieces of fur on the back of his neck standing up like he was full of static. "Anything, I just need a drink," he said honestly.
Back to the same tired Husk, you smiled, chest filled with warmth. He looked, or he seemed. . . well you didn't actually know. Did he like that you were behind the bar?
You grabbed him a bottle of beer, easily wrenching the bottle cap off with the metal opener.
Husk took it into his hands faster than you could set it on the bar, tipping the bottle back so far that the dark green glass shone in the hotels light.
"I guessed you really could've used that drink," you sighed, feeling a little guilty for not doing him this favor sooner.
"Chug! Chug! Chug!" Angel and Cherri caught on as Husk nursed his bottle to almost empty.
You smiled, albeit a little bittersweetly, and turned back to the bar in order to make him something you figured he'd like to try.
With new found 'confidence', Husk blearily eyed your back, a sinking, fluttery feeling growing in the pit of his stomach. Watching you clean the glasses, something he did all the time, it looked. . . magnificent when you did it.
Tumblr media
The night continued without a hitch.
You watched from behind the bar as the three laughed. Yes, Husk was laughing, bottle in hand and letting Angel Dust push him around playfully, daring the two of them to come gamble with him sometime.
It filled your heart completely, he looked really good with a smile on his face. . . And every now and then you'd catch him staring at you, almost as if he were proud.
To be fair, the thought almost made you fumble a cocktail you were making for Angel Dust.
"You know, your pretty good at this," he complimented you, in that glorious drunken heaven he was in. The quiet purrs coming from him was enough to convince you of that.
"Here," you offered, sliding a small silver tray with two shots and limes on it his way "on me."
He chuckled, a deep rumbling sound as fine as the drinks he served you. "No, I couldn't drink two-"
"This one's for me," you pointed, taking the slim glass between your fingers.
"Drinking on the job is bad luck," he slurred.
"Are you kidding me? This is the best luck I've ever had! Come on," you insisted.
Husk's face, while already burning from the alcohol, was flush with nerves, a little smile on his face from the feeling it gave him. "Thanks."

✨ Cruel Summer ✨
Part 2
pairing: Solo Sikoa x reader, Jey Uso × reader (briefly)
AN: If you’d like tagged, let me know 💖
⚠️ Warnings: 18+ , swearing, violence (this is the WWE after all) slight smut, infidelity (if you squint), jealous Jey, toxic behaviour, bad/embarrassing writing ⚠️
doesn't follow a specific timeline however it is more recent, total divas making a return.
✨ Said I’m fine but it wasn’t true, I don’t want to keep secrets just to keep you ✨
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The match was going off without a hitch, I had Charlotte in a headlock ready to execute my finisher when I’m taken down from behind by Rhea, the plan was for her to beat me down then escape through the crowd laughing and holding her title up high, I sold the beat down like a pro and the heat she was getting was phenomenal. Corey Graves and Michael Cole were doing their part on commentary making this look like a sickening attack, though as per his character Corey was doing his best to be a little shit that he is and side with the heel superstar. Smackdown ended with me out cold in the middle of the ring. What a way to kick off this rivalry.
Backstage, Gorilla
Back in the gorilla I’m met with hunter.
“Amazing job out there yn!”
“I’m afraid that was all Demi, I just followed her lead.”
A thick Aussie accent fills the gorilla.
“Nah, don’t sell yourself short yn, I wouldn’t have been able to look half as good if your selling of the beat down wasn’t as great.”
I’ve finally come face to face with demi, her aura radiates confidence and raw sex appeal.
“Okay ladies, you both did good.” Hunter states “but now, we have to incorporate the Uso’s into this, so next week on Smackdown the Judgement Day will meet the Uso’s.”
There is a real buzz backstage about this upcoming Smackdown. I just hope it’s something that the fans can really sink their teeth into.
Tumblr media
Yn interview (TD segment)
“I always try and look at social media after a match, everyone things I’m crazy but honestly I need to know how it’s coming across to the fans.”
“If something isn’t working or isn’t believable you best believe the WWE universe will make their opinions known.”
Yn picks up her phone and goes into twitter.
“See, look at these comments.”
Mami vs yn????? TAKE MY MONEY NOW #smackdown #wwe
Mami stepping all over yn, me next jkjkjk unless👀 @RheaRipley_WWE #smackdown
Rhea why????? What did yn do to you :( #wwesmackdown
My two favourite woman beefing 😭 this will go down as the greatest rivalry ever!!!!!!!!!! #wwe #smackdown
“Okay, yeah some are a bit more extreme than others, but it shows that what we are doing, the story we are trying to tell is getting over with the fans. I just hope the Uso’s and Judgement Day can pull it out the bag too.”
Tumblr media
The next day after I’m on television, I always wake up to messages from family and friends congratulating, consoling or just trying to get details out of me about what’s happening next, but my lips are sealed.
If I don’t see Jon, Trin or Josh before leaving the arena I always have multiple messages from them too, and today was no different.
J 💖
Get yo ass ready, we going for breakfast
Or we could stay in and I’ll have breakfast 👀
Did you get message?
You better be getting ready!!!!
I’m leaving now
Yn?
*10 missed calls J 💖*
Shit.
As I’m getting up, I hear banging from the other side of my hotel room, I don’t have to guess what, or who is making that noise. Opening the door, I’m greeted with an unamused Josh.
“Why didn’t you answer my calls or texts? I thought something had happened to you!”
“Well as you can see, I’m fine, so if you don’t mind, I need to get ready for breakfast.”
As I turn to walk away, I’m pulled into the familiar arms of his, my forbidden safe place. If Josh knew I was harbouring these feelings for him, this would all stop, and I could potentially lose him and I’m not ready for that.
Whispering into my ear he says the one thing I’ve been desperate to hear:
“I’m sorry.”
“I’m sorry for yesterday and the way I acted when you were talking with Orton, I know he’s just a friend but fuck, I hate when other men talk to my girl.”
“Your girl? So, are you mine then too?” I say sarcastically, knowing his answer.
He smirks “You know all this can’t be tied down.”
As much as we have had this conversation before, and I already knew his answer - it hurt but I couldn’t let him see that.
“Exactly Josh, so how about we cut the bullshit and call this for what it is? Two friends having fun.”
He spins me around and lifts my chin so I’m looking at him, his eyes dark and fiery – he was pissed.
“Okay, lets call it for what it is, you are mine.”
His large soft lips engulf my own, filling my body with the same euphoric feeling I always get with him.
“Now go get ready, Trin and Jon are waiting for us.”
At Breakfast (TD Segment)
“Hey girl, you took your time.”
“Ay did my brother try keep you from us AGAIN?”
“Trin, I overslept and Jon no one can keep me from you guys.” I say sitting next to Trin.
No matter what I’m going through, being with my family always makes me feel better. My happy place.
“Ya’ll mind if I sit?”
Joseph Fatu. As much as we run in the same circles, I’ve only ever met him once and that was in Hunters office. From what Trin and the boys have told me he’s quiet at first, but when he warms up, he is truly a special soul.
“Sit yo ass down, you aint gotta ask uce.”
I can see the Fatu resemblance. The dark mysterious eyes, the infectious smile and in contrast the brooding stare. These boys have good genes. My eyes start to wonder to the ink across his arms, studying each piece as if I was an art enthusiast. Looking back up I see his eyes are already on me with the signature Fatu stare, I smile and return to my conversation with Trin, hoping he hadn’t realised how long id been staring.
Unbeknownst to me, the waitress that had been serving us had been making heart eyes at Josh the entire time, and he had noticed this. Whether it was to get back at me for speaking up earlier or Josh being Josh, he started flirting with her at the table, she was over exaggerating her laugh and he was pulling out all the usual material that worked on these types of women. Watching him flirting wasn’t something knew and normally I wouldn’t bother much, however they exchanged numbers and arranged to meet up tonight. My stomach became heavy, and I felt like I was going to throw up, my heart was breaking once again and the cause? Josh Fatu.
Tumblr media
Trin and Jon interview (TD segment)
“I love my brother deeply, but he is such an idiot.”
“Flirting with another girl right when yn is sitting at the table? That’s messed up.”
“Yeah Jon, your right your brother is an idiot. How could he do that to her?”
Tumblr media
My eyes begin to sting as I excuse myself. This behaviour is nothing knew but each time it happened it took a little piece of me. Why did I have to fall in love with him of all people?!

I just need ussop x male reader head cannons I can never find any cus I can definitely see them kissing and then ussop bragging about it as is he wasn’t sweating and race red please 🙏 I love your work it makes me smile at how silly it is smt 💙
I KNOWWWW I never see any usopp x male reader!!! 💥💥
awww that scenario is so cute and true <3
Tumblr media
THANK YOU!!! That’s so kind of you to say! Yesss I’m so glad you enjoy my siliness because my writing always has been and always will be ;D 💖💖
Honestly Usopp probably isn’t fazed much about the fact that your a male
he’s educated on lgbtq+ and if you hc him to be apart of them that’s probably why!
So he’s not much flustered or surprised at the fact that he likes a guy just the fact that he likes YOU.
and your!- just!- yoursoepicsoawesomesoincrediblesobreathtakingsostunningsoastoundingsoextrodinaryso-
LIKE YOUR JUST SO COOL!-
i mean I guess he could’ve just said that buuuut
’cool’ is not cool enough of a word to describe you😉
alr that was a terrible dad joke but anyway-
thats not the point! The point is!….it really doesn’t matter your gender he just thinks your phenomenal (pan usopp? I’ll let you decide…)
the strawhats also don’t mind!
now every time I write they’re reactions it’s the same so I’m not doing it all over again- 😆
just a few honorable mentions :)
first off Robin knew it’d happen all along and nami got paid from the bets of it
Sanji doesn’t get the appeal but he knows every man isn’t the same (my boy zoro scarred him) and so is everyone’s preferences. (he supports)
luffy suggests to throw a party (just as an excuse to have one) but it’s not a bad excuse so you guys through one anyway
and yeah that’s all your getting 🥰
usopp tells the strawhats (probably luffy first) that you two are dating
he’s so excited when he does 💗
as soon as you say yes he’s running off to find everyone, (again- luffy first) shouting at the top of his lungs that you two are an item
okay on to your scenario~ 😊
*chuu*~ usopp gives you a little kiss on the lips (for the first time)
his face gets as red as a rose while standing there computing that he singlehandedly just had his first kiss with you and in general
you blinked and he’s already bolted off to go brag to the rest of the crew
specifically sanji, luffy, chopper and franky/brook
why them specifically?
Sanji because he didn’t even get to kiss at least Charlotte + plus he got his first kiss and partner before him
luffy & chopper because those are his loser bsfs
franky and brook? because he’s way younger than them and he got his first kiss before them 😂😂
he basically couldn’t stop boasting about it for a week straight
even then he’ll bring it up every chance he gets
”you may be strong sanji but at least I’ve had my first kiss” 😁☝️
his love languages are physical touch & gift giving (quality time too)
he will never not be shy about physical touch 💗
he just never gets used to it
his affections? (🤗) he lives for every form of physical touch ever from you
kiss on the cheek/forehead/lips/temple/hand, cuddles, linking pinkies/hold hands, footsie, high fives, shoulders/knees touches
you name it he wants it
seriously even the little stuff- generally before you start dating
Because then he’s even more shy/nervous around you
I haven’t mentioned that but he definitely is
he doesn’t know what to not do or how to act
yes those precisely bc he worries he’ll screw smth up by doing smth you don’t like
as far as how to act he simply doesn’t know what to do with himself around you
he becomes very self conscious
I’m sure quite a few peeps do in front of they’re crush ^v^
making you laugh counts as a love language for him
he loves the sound of your laughter. it lets him know he’s making you happy
he’s really worried about being a good boyfriend
so when he’s able to make you laugh he knows he’s doing something right
with quality time it’s all about the fact that he looooves to be around you!
whenever your away?
*goes to find you/asks around about your whereabouts* “hey m/n whatcha doin?” 😋
don’t get me wrong he’s not clingy the man still has hobbies—you know working in the usopp factory n such
But he does like to spend a good portion of his day with his lover 💛 (who doesn’t?)
gift giving is heavily his thing since he can give you his tinctures
you know cuz he likes to make stuff?
especially if your weak
then you can defend yourself
and he won’t have to worry about you <3
even if you are strong he’ll still make you stuff :P
maybe something that can help in battle but since you can handle yourself it likely protain to other things you like
if your strong he 💯 runs to you to protect him when danger comes
”YEAH!! M/N’S GONNA BEAT YOU UP! YOU BETTER NOT MESS WITH US!!”
(he’s saying this as he runs away :3)
if he ever manages to save you he’d be so proud of himself and brag to everyone about it
”yeah!! I saved m/n’s BUTT!” 😼
he keeps retelling the story more dramatic a each time and the only one still buying it is chopper <3
even luffy don’t believe him no more 🗿
If your weak he will protect you with everything he’s got!
even if that ain’t much 💪
which it’s essentially just him telling you to run, stalling, then running away himself
He likely leads the threat to someone who can defeat them and takes the credits 😎
random :)
he is most certainly simping if you have abs
like he would just loooove to watch you work out 😍😍🙏
if you met back in syrup village he probably followed you everywhere
like you were his only friend before the usopp pirates type thing
Btw you were the vice captian of said group
If you’ve known each other for that long it’s likely love and not just a crush by now but you label it 🤷‍♀️
if not then when you helped save his village he prob developed a crush on you then
how bravely you fought 😍 (even if you were crying like him)
Or maybe he goes to your island and he finds you very cool (even if your not physically strong)
either way he romanticizes how you really are and develops a crush on that idea of you. BUT- dw he DOES genuinely love you ‼️
quick mention on kaya- lets say him, you and kaya were just close friends and they weren’t crushing on each other
you, chopper, usopp and luffy are a group- ain’t no doubt about it c;
y’all are always being silly 😜
If your the mature one of the group your gonna go crazy 🤗🤗 not crazier than nami
Pranks also happen a lot (water bucket on door, stealing stuff, ding dong ditching etc.. little harmless stuff 😚)
overall usopp boyfriend review and rating? 100/100 green flag please date him
Usopp def needs some more content ! Male reader particularly
Hope you enjoy lovely nonny~♡

Alright girl, I thought of something 😏😏 The reader and Buck are dating and got really good friends with Sarah and the kids, so you get invited over for a BBQ and some games with your friends and enjoy the time of a little normal life. Then you stay over at night, enjoying some more alone time with your man 😉 and I have a feeling that you will blow up this idea into smth phenomenal again ♥️
Twice in one day!!! I am spoiling you 😉
Thank you very much to the totally gorgeous @imagine-all-the-fandoms for sending this in and thank you again for being so patient! I hope you like it ❤️💖
Warnings: p in v, blowies, Bucky gives good head, small spit kink cos I am still a whore
Tumblr media
-----------------------🌻----------------------
'We are about an hour away! Can't wait to see you all' you hit send on your phone and Sarah pinged back a smiley face almost immediately and you smiled. You and Bucky had made the long drive down to Louisiana to spend a couple of days with Sam, his sister Sarah and her kids. You both loved being in Louisiana with the Wilson family, it felt like being in another world, where you could both be free from the struggles of everyday Avenging and instead just be a cute couple with their good friends.
Bucky's hand shifted from the gear stick to your thigh and squeezed as you smiled up at him. "You ok?" You asked and he nodded, a smile warming his face. "Hmm, just looking forward to getting there."
-------------------🌻------------------
As soon as you were out of the car AJ and Cass were running to Bucky, shouting about his arm and begging to be swung around. Sarah was yelling at them to calm down and let Bucky catch his breath, but he was already lifting them off the floor to their delighted screams.
You hugged Sarah and she launched into a million questions, asking about your journey, about Bucky, whether or not he had popped the question. You rolled your eyes and laughed as she squeezed your hand and led you inside for some much needed food.
Bucky arrived moments later with your suitcase in one hand and two excited kids hanging off the other. "Hey Sarah" he grinned and once the kids had let go she pulled him into a hug. "So good to see you! Sam is down by the boat if you wanna go get him?" Bucky pressed a kiss to your cheek and headed off with AJ and Cass in tow, asking him endless questions about his arm and who he could beat up in a fight. You and Sarah laughed at them before you helped her finish dishing up dinner.
-------------------🌻------------------
By the time you had finished eating the sun was setting and you couldn't remember the last time you felt so relaxed. You settled yourself in Bucky's lap, his arms wrapped around you, fingers playing with yours as Sarah and Sam swapped increasingly embarrassing stories about each other. That was until Sarah won, of course.
"Ok I'm officially sick of sharing family stories, can we start drinking and find a different topic of conversation?" Sam grumbled before pouring everyone a healthy whiskey. You were already a bit giggly from the beer you had been working on all afternoon, so this was probably a mistake, but you were safe so you carried on.
Bucky pressed a kiss to your head before clinking his glass against yours and taking a sip. "That's pretty good man, cheers. And thank you for having us". Sam and Sarah both waved away his thanks, "you guys are always welcome here, anytime" you all smiled at each other before Sam whipped out Cards Against Humanity. You groaned and shook your head, "I suck at this game Sam!" He just laughed and dealt out the cards.
"Ok who took a dump last?"
-------------------🌻------------------
It had been a perfect evening that turned into the perfect night. After you had run through Sam's game, you tried your hand at poker (you lost) then monopoly (you lost) and finally you rose from your seat and begged Sarah to put some music on. In your drunken state, you both laughed and sang along loudly to the music, twirling each other around.
After a little while you felt familiar hands holding on to your waist and swaying with you, but also helping you to steady yourself. You soun around and found yourself face to face with Bucky. "Hi handsome" you grinned up at him and wrapped your arms around his neck, pulling him in for a quick kiss. "Hi beautiful" he smiled back and rubbed circles on your hips. "Shall we head off the bed soon?" He meant it to be a simple question, but he sort of growled it at you, making you blush and nod, kissing him again, a little more desperately this time around.
"Guys, I've made up Sam's old bed for you, top of the stairs if you wanna head to bed" Sarah said, waving her arm towards the house. "Um what? No, no way are those two sleeping in my bed...nah nope." You all laughed at him and rolled your eyes, "Sam we're only sleeping, what's the big deal?" But you couldn't stop giggling as Bucky whispered something truly filthy in your ear. "I will kill your Barnes, I swear to god..."
-------------------🌻------------------
You stumbled up to the bedroom, Bucky's hands on your hips as you battled the stairs up to your bedroom. "Almost there baby, just a few more to go..." He chuckled and finally you reached the door and headed inside.
You immediately stripped off your dress to escape the stifling heat as Bucky threw open the windows. "Damn baby, you tryna give me a heart attack?" He walked over to you and pressed kisses to your face before sweeping down to your neck and chest.
You sighed his name and dragged his face back to yours to meet in a kiss, lips and teeth clashing as your passion for him flared in your tummy. "I know we said we wouldn't....but can we?" You whispered, eyeing Sam's bed and tugging at Bucky's waistband. "Baby, it was never not on the cards... Lay down pretty girl, show me where you want me."
You placed yourself on the bed before slipping off your underwear and spreading your legs open, showing him your pretty pussy, and whining as your fingers slipped through your folds. "Just there huh? I think I can work with that hmm?" You whispered his name and he quickly kicked off his pants and threw his shirt across the room before settling between your thighs, mouth inches away from your heat. He blew a stream of cool air on to you, making you squirm, before he settled his lips on your cunt and licked at your folds. You grabbed a cushion to cover your mouth as you moaned, his fingers joining his tongue to drag you towards your peak. Your thighs shook as he curled his fingers upwards and you jerked your hips as your came, biting down on the pillow to muffle your scream.
He pulled it from you to press a kiss to your lips, the taste of him and you riling you up again. With a little coordination you pushed him backwards and shuffled down the bed until you were level with his cock, which was resting heavily on his stomach. He panted as you pressed soft kisses and kitten licks to it, making his body jerk with the sensitivity of it. His fingers wrapped through your hair and he tugged gently. "No teasing princess, please...." You pressed one more kiss to him before taking him as far down your throat as you could. You set a steady pace, bobbing up and down, pausing briefly to pull off and lick up and down his shaft, paying special attention to the thick vein that pulsed on the underside of his dick. "Oh baby fucking hell" he moaned and you threw the cushion at him, which he chucked away, grinning. You rolled your eyes before taking him back in your mouth, sucking hard as he brushed the back of your throat. He held you there for a moment, rutting up into your mouth, making a delicious wet sound that went straight to your core.
"Come up here baby, need to fuck that pussy" he pulled you gently off him and urged you upwards until your face was level with his. "You gonna ride me baby? Or you want me to do it?" He pinched your nipples and you ground your wet heat down on his abs, before you whined out, "you do it Buck... Please?" And he chuckled before flipping you over and you landed with a huff. His hands pushed your thighs upwards, opening you up to him and he groaned before spitting on your pussy, rubbing it in with his cock. You sobbed and bucked your hips before he cooed at you. "Ok baby girl, I know, I know, gonna make you feel good now." Your fingers dug into his shoulders as he sank into you, filling you perfectly in one thrust. You squeaked as he started a relentless pace, filling you up each time and bottoming out. His growls became louder and longer with each thrust until you pulled him down, intent to quieten him before Sam bust in and kicked his ass. You let his tongue explore your mouth as you tugged at his hair and wrapped your thighs around his hips. His low growl vibrated through your chest and you thrust forward as he pounded harder, chasing his release. "Come with me baby, come on sweetheart, don't hold out on me." He whispered in your ear and pressed himself deeper and harder until your walls squeezed him and you both toppled over the edge, panting as you shook and clung to his body as he peppered your face and chest with kisses.
He finally rolled off you and pulled your sweaty body closer to his and you giggled quietly as he started to doze off. "Sam is going to posion your coffee y'know" and he chuckled groggily, "fucking worth it."

So I’ve been meaning to ramble about the beauty of four walls for so long now but am only just getting round it so i really apologise because the amount I’ve enjoyed reading every chapter and just the pleasure the story has bought me I should’ve been leaving huge appreciation on every chapter. You’re so talented.
I’m just gonna start by saying that four walls is one of, if not the most, thought provoking and intimate things I’ve ever read. I don’t really have the vocab to explain what it is about it, but the way you portray emotions and just the delicacy of every situation, especially in chapter 8 where they finally get together, is just something else. There’s this underlying yearning and carefulness in each chapter that’s just so realistic, and seeing it written down and feeling that ache in my chest whenever something you’ve written just encapsulates that so perfectly is just heaven.
Also the way you depict insecurity ;-; Alex thinking miles is suddenly going to start looking at him differently. And that possessiveness of miles and confusion he feels about Suzy because she’s more than just a fling and is in Miles’ personal space and bubble that Alex sees as his but now includes her. I just can’t because it’s so relatable and written SO PERFECTLY.
And the little details? THE LITTLE DETAILS! These tiny bits of intimacy like the mixed jackets and the shoes next to the door and the description of miles’ belt buckle and how it moves with his breathing is just- omg. And the little addition of Alex always trying to unlock each door with the wrong set of keys? And the ‘where’s home’ ‘here’ ’me too’? SOBBING. It’s honestly a little scary how perfectly you depict that kind of lostness that can be common for people who are constantly moving about and find that security in that one person who’s always been their person no matter where they are. Sometimes I really think you must just be one of them writing their actual story just pretending it’s fanfic xD
And the nerves, and that doubt, like even though Alex must know deep deep down that miles feels the same he just needs to provoke it until Miles breaks and he can be sure. And that ‘c’mon al, it’s never just you, is it?’ That miles says because it’s just them, on the same wavelength, overthinking themselves into being convinced the other doesn’t want them. And the HURT omfg the hurt. Miles thinking Alex is just pushing to see what happens and to get his own way like again I can’t explain how incredibly you do that and how realistically you portray it and without seeing inside Alex’s mind it does seem like that’s exactly what he’s doing. But Miles’ perception of him vs the way Alex sees him as home (like ‘just the two of them alone in the room Alex most often sees when he closes his eyes to escape other rooms’)just ASGDKFLFOENDB. Babies.
I’m really really late going somewhere and this isn’t nearly the appreciation I want to show for you or four walls, nor is it anywhere close to highlighting all the things that are just phenomenal about the way you write and portray these characters. But the way you write has honestly introduced me to this whole new world of how characters emotion’s should look, and how it’s this simmering beneath the surface that you do absolutely incredibly that makes the characters so much deeper and more vulnerable and just perfection
So thank you so so much, honestly love this story and your writing beyond belief <3333333
hii 💖 oh my GOD where to start??? this is so unbelievably, UNBELIEVABLY lovely i don't even know what to say 😭😭 genuinely, i can't even begin to tell you how much this made my day (scratch that. my whole WEEK) when it popped up in my inbox 🥺
writing four walls over the past year has brought me so much joy, so to hear that this little world i've created has been bringing other people joy too is truly the most special feeling in the world ✨💫
your kind words about how i portray emotions and inner workings is just - god, i don't even know what to say 🥺 that's always been one of my favourite things about writing, but when you immerse yourself in a character's headspace as much as i have with alex in this fic, it can also make it really challenging. like i definitely spend a LOT of time going back and forth and worrying that i haven't got it quite right to make sense for his character, or that i've spent too much time on the introspective side of things vs dialogue. so yeah - to hear that when you're reading it all the emotions feel that real?? aghhhhh. that's everything i could possibly want and makes all the challenges of writing it feel TOTALLY worthwhile 💗 (also, i love that you feel that ache in your chest when you're reading, because that's what i feel when i'm writing them in this fic too 🥺)
i'm also so glad you think all of alex's feelings of jealousy/insecurity around suzy work - that's been something i've really enjoyed writing actually, it feels like her presence is (slowly 🤦‍♀️) helping him unlock a lot of doors that it might have taken him a lot longer to notice otherwise! it's been really interesting to write that dynamic.
AHHHHH as i'm sure you can tell, i'm an absolute sucker for little details, so it makes me SO HAPPY that you enjoy all those elements of the fic 💗 also all your comments about chapter eight specifically and how everything unfolded there have made my heart absolutely sing 🥹 i was actually really nervous about sharing that chapter and worried that it wouldn't measure up, so hearing your lovely words about that scene is just - thank you 🥺 it truly means so much💖
honestly it's not the first time someone has said that they think i must be either alex or miles writing this, and each time i hear it it just leaves me speechless because that is just the BIGGEST compliment ever??? 😭 obviously we only get glimpses of what they're like from interviews, lyrics etc - but they have *such* a special dynamic and are such fascinating people, so to feel like i've managed to capture even a semblance of who they are is truly so special, thank you 💗
i'm going to stop flailing at you in a moment because i feel like i've rambled on quite long enough now, but this: "the way you write has honestly introduced me to this whole new world of how character's emotions should look" THIS??? this has to be one of my favourite things someone has ever said about my writing 🥺 i want to print it out on a post-it note and stick it above my desk ✨
thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a thoughtful and generous comment - i truly can't begin to tell you what a gift feedback like this is, and how much it inspires me and keeps me going through the tougher moments of writing 🙏 you also sent it at a time where i'd been struggling particularly with self-criticism and doubt around the chapter i'm currently writing, and honestly reading all your kind words just restored so much confidence and joy in my writing. thank you so very much, i'm wishing you the most wonderful day and sending all the best vibes your way 💜💜💜
Tumblr media
(PS the next chapter is nearly ready now! 💖)

Hello hello! Selfie here~📸
Jude!!!! This update was phenomenal as per all your previous updates💖 seriously thought my favourite thing ever was the 3 siblings just interacting with each other (sally my beloved 🥰 and Percy the clown🤡). The best thing to date though has to be being able to yell at imre and lorcan, I literally couldn’t stop laughing at how gagged lorcan was😭
Keep up the great work, I always look forward to see what you come up with🫡

Hi! Can I request one shot with mom reader x Carlisle wholesome moment with Rosalie. Rose would definitely be my fav child and not Edward 🙄. She’s so feisty and Carlisle nickname kitten for her just fit her so much lol.
Also Because I have daddy issue hahahaha
Hello dear💖, thanks for your request.
Carlisle Cullen x mom reader 👧🧛‍♂️ Vampires and Kittens👧
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Y/n was a vampire, she had recently been founded by the Cullen’s and since then she had met her mate Carlisle. Y/n and Carlisle met through the hospital; she was a nurse who had feelings for the doctor. Y/n changed when Carlisle proposed to her, she made the choice, she wanted to live a life of eternity with her dear beloved mate.
Changing into a vampire at first was quite difficult, it felt like you were suffocating and then you no longer breathed. All the sights, scents, sounds became clearer, y/n could hear a human’s blood flowing from a mile away. Animal blood wasn’t exactly like human blood, it was enough to satisfy you, but human blood fulfilled you. Y/n’s speed was unnatural, her strength was supernatural, and her beauty was phenomenal.
Y/n was sitting down in the lounge, she picked up a book and started to read it. Y/n’s eyes scanned through every part of the text, word by word she tried to picture the scene in her head that was until a door swung open. “Come on Rosalie, it’s not that bad, Bella’s quite cool” Emmett was trying to reason with Rosalie “She shouldn’t be here, why does she even want to throw her life away”. Y/n closed the book to see what the two were even arguing about. “Well, she’s not a vampire yet, who knows she might change her mind” Emmett smiled, Rosalie rolled her eyes “Bella’s made her choice, she’s prepared to give up something everyone would want”.
Y/n felt bad, she was closer to Rosalie then out of anyone from the Cullen’s, they share a mother-daughter bond.
“Emmett, do you mind giving Rosie some space” y/n held Emmett’s shoulder, she knew when Rosalie wanted space. “Fine, whatever” Emmett sped off annoyed, Rosalie didn’t like Bella, she thought the whole thing of her becoming a vampire was idiotic. “Rosalie, do you mind if we can talk” y/n smiled “I guess, whatever it won’t change anything” Rosalie sighed. “Why are you and Emmett arguing” Y/n knew how close they were, Emmett was Rosalie’s mate, they were soulmates. “Nothing its just-, I can’t believe ever since Bella joined, she would give her life away when she has a choice”.
Y/n placed a hand over Rosalie’s shoulder, Bella had chosen to be apart of the family and Edward had found someone that made him happy. Rosalie in truth was jealous Bella had the freedom to do as she pleases, to have a family, have people care for her, enjoy life. Rosalie could never understand why Bella would throw all of that away, her life as a human.
“To give up something so precious to become something monstrous” Rosalie’s eyes slightly glared “Rosalie, I know you want that life back but you’re with someone that loves you truly” y/n smiled.
Rosalie smiled to herself, she leaned into y/n’s grasp “you will always be my daughter, me and Carlisle couldn’t ask for anyone else”.
Speaking of timing, y/n heard someone knock lightly on the door “hey y/n, I finished work early”. Carlisle’s eyes gazed on y/n and Rosalie’s as they seem to be having a moment “hey kitten, everything all right?”. Carlisle sat in between, he wrapped his arms around y/n and his Rosalie.
Rosalie didn’t say anything, she leaned into her loving parents arms, they might’ve not been her real mum or dad, but they were there for her. “Don’t worry kitten, we will do our best to care for you” Carlisle smiled.
For the rest of the night, y/n and Carlisle spent time with Rosalie, the one thing she was grateful for when she was turned. She was loved by people who care about her, her tragic past seems like a figment when y/n and Carlisle came into her life.
Anyways that's all I have for now:
Ta Ta✨

hope this isn’t weird 🙈 stopping by to say that your writing is absolutely phenomenal!! a full-course meal with a heaping side of dessert—just absolutely delicious 🔥💖🔥💖🔥👨‍🍳💋 your tav is an absolute delight to read 🥹💖💗💖
your prose is so beautiful and you do an incredible job of capturing these emotions so well. and ol’ raphael! where to even begin? 😈you nail down his voice and mannerisms so perfectly it feels as though he’s come alive. and that’s no easy feat!
i hope it’s alright to ask but how do you keep a character, well, in-character whilst writing? 😺
thank you for sharing your incredible work fr!!!💖💖💖🐣
Not weird at all! It's so nice to hear, and so reassuring! And I always love interacting with other Raphael fans. Frankly, we all in this terrible hellscape together. Before BG3 I went through a long, long, long period of time where I wasn't writing at all. It was grim. It's being truly lovely to get back into it (even if it's because of a devil).
As for keeping a character in character, a lot of it is practice. And like...I dunno. I tend to gravitate towards character's with very distinct voices (Raphael and Astarion are the easiest in BG for me). When I'm writing a scene, I ask if I can hear the character saying what I've written. If I can, it's probably alright. If I can't? It needed changing.
Someone was also kind enough to post all of Raphael's voice lines, which was a massive help. But, yes. Read your dialogue over in the character's voice. It'll (usually) help direct your efforts.
Thanks so much, love! Have the best night!

WOW, your art is so amazing and absolutely beautiful!!!! I can’t get over how your mind/ imagination must work!!! Like some of the backgrounds in your recent TLOU works 👀🤤 and the color choices!!! OMFG YOUR COLOR PALETTES 🤩💖✨ you are so good at generating mood with colors alone, but you are able to tell an entire, detailed, story with your art/ illustration skills, which always astounds me btw. And you inspire me sO much, That I’ve taken up digital art much more seriously. I’ve also been inspired by your art to start watching TLOU, too! I’ve never seen it before so I don’t actually know any of the characters lol 😅 (I came for Star Wars and stayed for everything else)
Anyway, I essentially just wanted to say thank you for posting your lovely art on here for others to see!! Because, honestly, you and a few other artists here on tumblr have really inspired me to come back to art and take it up seriously again. So thank you, sincerely. :-)
Hi! Thank you so, so much for your kind words, it has really left me almost speechless. I’m so honored to hear that my art could inspire you artistically. 🙏 I also hope you enjoy The Last of Us when you watch it. It’s a phenomenal series.
Thank you again for your kind words. It is always my pleasure to share. ❤️🙏

👋 An Anons ask just made me realise something 🤔 Was Salyra ever planning on coming back for MC? Like at all? Or did she get comfortable in the little bubble she made for herself in Ishari? Like she missed us but she wasnt actively doing anything about it ? She says she always thought of us buuuut not gonna lie her actions pretty much say otherwise 🙄
And are there gonna be any POVs in the story I'd like to see what Irus thinks of the heartbreak and tears his beloved is going through especially after our hot night together 😉 and also, What was going through Salyras mind first when she saw MC, then when Anu mentioned Rana and during our conversation with her? I mean she has to feel some guilt for her actions right, I mean does the thought cross her mind that Rana is older than when she left us or that she never got to raise us at all, can she see the tears and hurt on MCs face at all? Does that make her think about what we're going through even a little bit?
And oooh Ramona your writing is phenomenal, you set out to break people's hurts and you never pulled any punches 😂😂 your work is amazing and I'm loving how the story and when do you think chapter 6 will be out i want to mark it on my calender I'm anxiously waiting for our next encounter with Mama no Salyra...she'll get her mama privileges depending on chapter 6 😏 ooh and another thing...sorry its quite a few asks huh😅...its just that I'm too invested in this story 😁....What would she think of being called by her name by MC and how would she feel? And what choices make her feel the most sad because those are the ones I'm going for 😈
You'll get your answers in Chapter 6 regarding Salyra 😋
Unfortunately, extra POVs are reserved only for my Patrons as bonus side stories. I'm not a fan of IF games where the perspectives of other characters are included in the game - because it takes away some of the ability of players to imagine what the characters are feeling for themselves. It also is a lot of work that doesn't add anything to the plot or the scope of the game so I won't be adding extra perspectives in the main game 😊
I'm glad you're enjoying the game so far and thank you for loving the angst! 💖
I can't answer anything about Salyra because this will all come up in Chapter 6 and I'm a total pantser when it comes to writing so I just write what feels natural so I don't know myself what Salyra will do or say until I write it 😅
Chapter 6 hopefully will be out in March 🌼

Hey! I was just curious if you had decided how Elvis and Jack first met? Was he a part of Elvis’ football team? Or did he maybe go to school with him? I was just thinking about this and was curious! It’s honestly nuts how much of my brain this fic takes up. I have read MANY many fanfics, and this is far and away the best I have ever read. Such a complete story with well-developed, interesting characters. The smut is so hot but also so riddled with detail that it really adds to the story. Your portrayal of Elvis is absolutely magnificent and I hope that either this fic never ends- or he’ll appear in your future works. Although I’ll absolutely read anything you write. Anyway, you’re phenomenal and I’m a big fan.
Okay, so many wonderful things here, baby! Lemme see, where to start?
I mention somewhere (part 5, I think?) that Jack met Elvis in high school because some boys were bullying Jack about his scar and Elvis stepped in to help and they were fast friends from that point forward! I was inspired by the story of how Red West stepped in and stopped bullies from cutting Elvis' hair off, and loved the idea that Elvis would pay it forward and help someone else!
And thank you darlin' for your specific feedback -- I always get a bit nervous about the smut because it can be so easy to get too focused on the 'hotness' of the act itself and forget the rest, so I'm glad it's adding to the story at least part of the time!
Speaking to his portrayal, honestly, I'm just glad my portrayal of E is coming across as even somewhat realistic and hopefully respectful of his complex humanity! It's SO weird writing about a real person sometimes because I love him to death and try to pour that into the 'character' of him as much as possible while staying true to all the history and differing accounts of who he was and could be. There is still so much I am learning about him, so it's a constantly ongoing process of interpreting that info! But at the end of the day, it's still an interpretation. (If he's out there somewhere reading PS over my shoulder, I really hope I'm doing you justice EP and that I'm not embarrassing myself too much! LOL) In any case, I'm really glad it seems to be resonating with y'all!
Finally, thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for reading and your support!! 💖 It means the world!
Tumblr media
(This is what I imagine he's doing over my shoulder... 🤣 Like, "eh, I would've actually said/done it this way, but it's fine, I guess..." *shrug/smirk*)

Here's some more questions coming at you for OC Bingo! These are for Jumping into Wonderland/ Hayden.
What's your favourite thing you've written for the story and how did it come about?
Were there any characters from other works of fiction that inspired Hayden?
If you could have a conversation with Hayden, what would you ask?
Which other OC in the series are you most proud of?
Which OC in the story are you most similar to?
💖💖 Thank you for asking!! 💖💖
1.) What's your favourite thing you've written for the story and how did it come about?
Spiral and Diving both had different highlights/challenges for me.
Spiral is very canon heavy, so it was less about writing something completely original, and more about manipulating what was there. The premise for bringing my OC into this world was mostly mine (heavily inspired by Impure's New Game + theory), but all the main events themselves were from various versions of the Stand. The best part of this was cherry picking the events I liked and mashing them together like a FrankenStand mess. Best example of this would be in Vegas. '20 series Glen was put on trial, and confronted Lloyd there, which hey, he was absolutely phenomenal in that scene. I can't complain and I wouldn't want to lose that. But I would have also loved to see this version of Glen face off against Flagg directly as well, much like how book Glen got to. So it was a game of, how do I get both (and keep this man alive through them). How would one effect the other since they were never meant to co-exist. And I liked weaving all that together.
Tumblr media
Diving was more of an original plot after canon events wrapped up, so I could take more pride in creating events there. My favorite moments in Diving ended up being the times at the end of each section when everybody's storylines came together. With three main OCs, there were three separate arcs, but for the section ends they usually wove together into each other well. At least I hope they did. So it was fun having Hayden's part, Steph's part, and Max's part all start to bleed into each other and watching one group's actions directly affect another's. A good example of this was in the section two climax. I had the song 'Monster' in my head (thanks PeaceMaker), and I liked the idea of playing with who was the true monster. So you have Gwen and Rayna with conflicting claims in Steph's story. You have Harold, who had been a villain prior, fighting who he had been in Max's story, and you have Hayden and Flagg (one of the biggest 'monsters' of their world) battling can-toi/taheen in her line. They all end up playing a part in each others story while still keeping their own structure and play on this idea.
Tumblr media
2.) Were there any characters from other works of fiction that inspired Hayden? (Bonus catch: Which OC in the story are you most similar to?)
To start, when we're talking about Hayden, we have to acknowledge she was Hadley prior to the start of Spiral. 'Hayden' found herself on the side of the road after the Trips virus hit. She doesn't remember her past, or anything she could do. She was starting out fresh, and could only go off of her core personality. In this respect, she's pulling a lot of me. I mean, let's face it, I wrote this because I love Glen. If I'm going to add a character for him, I'm going to make it very me. Self indulgence ftw. So reactions/feelings/general snark. Me. And reactions and feels are all she really has. Hadley, however, is much more Doctor Who-esque mixed up with later stage Willow Rosenberg. Way smarter than me, ability to do magic, quick thinking. Try to save everybody, as best you can, and always help. Underlying personality traits, yeah I'm still pulling on what my reactions/feelings would be, but overall, you're looking at an odd blend of Willow Doctor.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
3.) If you could have a conversation with Hayden, what would you ask?
What would I ask Hayden...? 🤔 Was the bloody revenge rampage fun? It looked fun. 😂 But seriously, I guess I would want to know as much about magic as I could. There's some natural abilities in her world, but a good deal of magic is learned. I would love to know whatever she could share. It would also be fun to get the first hand account of what my favorite characters are actually like too, but that seems kind of cheap. (Hey thanks for taking this interview. So what can you tell me about everybody else.)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
4.) Which other OC in the series are you most proud of?
Hayden, Steph, and Max are my three main girls. I have other supporting cast, but those three drive a lot of the action (although Gwen comes in late to take a larger role). Hayden has a 101k story to herself, so she clearly has a top spot. But I guess Max really came out of nowhere and took control. I ended up writing things for her that I truly never planned for with no better reason than, she wanted to. It makes sense with a base character model of Faith from Buffy. Take, want, have. And that's pretty much what she did, with little regard to anything else and no shits given. It was chaos, but it was fun chaos.
