Tumblr media
It didn’t take long for Rutger to spot her familiar blonde head of hair, pulled back into a messy braid and headphones on her ears. Rutger wasn’t late this time, ensuring he could sit next to Sofia and giving himself time to talk to her before the professor started the lecture.
“Hey.” Rutger says.
Sofia doesn’t reply, in fact doesn’t even turn her head. Rutger realizes her headphones are probably noise cancelling, so he waves a hand in front of her face.
Sofia jumps, pulling her headphones off. “Oh, hey.” Sofia says, pausing the song.
“Hey.” Rutger replies. “What’re you listening to?”
“Uh, Zach Bryan.” She replies, showing Rutger her phone screen, displaying the Elisabeth album cover. “You’re not late this time.”
Rutger lets out a dry laugh. “Yeah, made sure I knew where I was going this time.”
“Oh I’m not judging, I’ve gotten lost like 8 times already.” Sofia jokes.
There’s a lull in their conversation and Rutger just stares at the blonde girl in front of him. “So did you do the readings?” Sofia asks, a little intimidated by his glance
“Oh, uh… some of it.” Rutger says, fishing the book out of his bag. “I read the first 5 pages and then Luca asked me to play chel with him and… chel is a lot more fun than reading.”
Sofia laughs. Her laugh is like a melody in Rutger’s ears. He doesn’t quite know why her every little detail has him so entranced but he isn’t complaining.
“Listen, I know how hard it can be to balance being an athlete with being a student. How about we get together once a week and I can help you with some of the work?” Sofia offered.
A smile comes across Rutger’s lips. “Yeah! That’d be great.”
“Just uh…” Sofia starts. “Don’t let Luca or Adam find out.”
Rutger furrows his brows. “Why?”
Sofia conjures up a lie in her head quickly. “They probably won’t like me trying to become friends with their teammates. They can be a little territorial.”
Rutger seems to buy this explanation. “Oh so we’re not just tutor and tutoree, we’re friends.” He smiles, receiving an eye roll from Sofia. “I mean I’m sure they won’t care if you’re helping me out with English and we just happen to become friends.”
Sofia breathes in deeply, considering the situation. On one hand, there’s this incredibly cute boy, who is charming to no end, and something, somewhere within Sofia desperately wants to get to know him. But on the other hand, he’s her brother’s teammate. He’s the one person in the whole universe that Sofia has been explicitly told to not go near.
But to hell with Luca and Adam, they can’t control her.
“I’m sure they won’t.” Sofia says.
“Great!” Rutger smiles. “Listen, how about you come over to the sophomore house and go over the readings for this week? And, if he’s there, we can tell Luca so he doesn’t just find out randomly.”
This sends a rush of panic to Sofia’s core, but she finds herself nodding before she knows it.
By the time class is over, the two of them are packing up their stuff and Rutger is leading the way to his place.
“So you didn’t get into hockey, huh?” Rutger asked, trying to get to know Sofia a little more.
Sofia chuckles. If she had a dollar for every time she was asked this question, she’d be richer than Adam (even with his new contract). “Uh, no.” She says. “I tried to get into it, but playing just wasn’t for me.”
“Mhm.” Rutger nods. “So what is for you? What do you do for fun?”
“Uhm, read. A lot. My book collection’s a thing of beauty.” Sofia says. “I also like to bake.”
“What’s your favourite book of all time?” Rutger asks.
Sofia answers immediately, with no need to contemplate her answer in her head. “Little Women.”
“Like the movie?” Rutger asks.
Sofia laughs at this. "Um, yeah like the movie. Have you seen it?"
"Um, no. I just know it's a movie with Timothée Chalamet." Rutger sheepishly replies, making Sofia laugh.
"Well, It's this amazing book about these sisters living during the civil war and they have such intricate personalities, and it also delves into women and how they are people with their own thoughts and-"
Only then does Sofia look at Rutger, realizing she has been going on a rant about Little Women. He's staring at her, delicate eyes as she spoke about the book she's so passionate about.
"Sorry, I just went on a tangent." Sofia chuckles.
"No, It's cool how passionate you are about that book." Rutger smiles.
They turn down a walkway and up to a house. Rutger unlocks the front door, allowing Sofia to enter. “Luca? You here bud?” Rutger shouts out.
“Yeah, wassup?” Sofia hears her brother's voice from somewhere in the house.
“C’mon.” Rutger says to Sofia, walking down the hall. They enter the living room where she sees her brother slouched on the couch, a computer on his lap.
Luca pauses from typing and glances up at his roommate. He looks back at his screen before glancing back up. He thought his eyes were deceiving him but, sure enough, his baby sister was standing next to Rutger.
Sofia reads his confused, almost concerned, look on his face. “Hey Lu…” Sofia chuckles.
“What’re you doing here?” Luca asks. His eyes flick to Rutger, suspicion now lacing his eyes. Sofia recognizes where his brain is going so she jumps in before he can make any snap judgements.
“We’re in the same English class so I’m helping him make sure he doesn’t fall behind, especially while he’s away at road games.” Sofia explains.
Luca’s eyes soften and they go back to his computer. “That’s actually a good idea. She’s a fucking genius when it comes to reading.”
Sofia’s slightly taken aback by Luca’s immediate understanding, but Rutger doesn’t flinch. “Great. We’re gonna go over the readings.” He says. “Here, we can go to my room.”
Rutger walks out, not receiving any pushback from Luca. Sofia follows, wondering if Luca didn’t hear him or simply doesn’t care. They go upstairs and into his bedroom, Rutger closing the door slightly. “You can sit wherever.” He says.
Sofia sits on his desk chair, pulling her legs in, sitting cross-legged. She takes out her notebook and book, opening her page notes.
“You handwrite your notes?” Rutger asks, taking out his things.
“Um, yeah if it’s notes from a book or readings. If it’s class notes I use my laptop.” Sofia replies.
Rutger stands in front of her, looking down at her notes. “How do you read that chicken scratch?”
“What do you mean? I actually have really neat writing.” Sofia laughs.
There’s her laugh again.
Rutger joins her laughter, sitting down on his bed. “Okay so I’ll give a quick rundown of what happened in the first 20 pages, then we can talk about the discussion questions. Sound good?”
I get to hear you talk for the next 10 minutes? Sounds perfect.
“Sounds good.” Rutger nods.
“Okay, so the story opens with George and Lennie walking on a path.” Sofia begins.

Hey there. I guess this is the place to contact? I’m a college student visiting my family for the Fourth of July next weekend. I’ve been away all year. The person who’s most excited to see me is my little brother Zach. He’s eighteen, I’m twenty one. We used to be really close as kids, but when he hit puberty, he started getting wayyy into wrestling and hanging with the jock crowd. It’s like he became a whole different person; even though he was popular for his boyish good looks and his winning smile, his grades really suffered, and we stopped spending time together. Now I can’t even have a conversation with him because he resents me for going to college. He has this huge disdain for “book-learning” and, I think, is jealous of my authority as the older and smarter brother. The last few times I saw him it was all arguing.
Anyway, just a few days ago, I got this package from him in the mail. It’s this Chronoviac thing—I don’t even know what it is, really, and he didn’t include a manual or anything. Just a note that, in his messy and only semi-legible handwriting, reads “For the 4th. Luv u bro”. I googled the chronoviac and came here to ask if you know what any of this means, why he might have sent me this, or hell, even what the goddamn thing is…
To be perfectly honest: You are putting me in a huge conflict of conscience here. What I can and will tell you is that your little brother wants a Fourth of July with his brother. And that he wants to celebrate the Fourth of July the way he's always imagined it. And for this he has defined a scenario on the Chronivac that will only become active if you execute it. What happens then, I can not tell you, that would be a breach of trust against your brother. And it would be above all a violation of what your brother wishes. Whether you will like it? I cannot say. But I can promise you that I will keep the process under control and make sure that nothing happens that cannot be undone. If you're up for it, on Friday morning, before you head home, hit the "Activate Scenario" button.
Friday morning. You're still unsure…. But what is the worst that can happen. Honestly? You don't know. But just because of your parents, you want a harmonious Fourth of July. So what? You press "Activate scenario". It's now 7:00 in the morning. Your flight leaves at 12:30. Shit, then you can go to the gym before. You can already pack your bag and take it with you. Actually, you've already got a decent pile of clothes ready, but there's definitely some sports gear missing. And do you really want to see the fireworks in a button-down shirt? It's supposed to be a hot evening. Fuck, where are the tank tops. After ten minutes your room looks like a bomb has hit it. And you stuffed your clothes into the gym bag just like that. In the side pocket are your sneakers, your socks and your water bottle with the second protein shake. You quickly drink the first one before you leave.
On your way to the gym, you remember that you left your laptop and books at your dorm. Huhuhu, it's the Fourth of July, there's no studying for a few days, there's celebrating. You've worked hard enough, you're allowed to treat yourself. There are only a few of the big boys in the gym. Of course, all the others are already on their way home. But after what you've seen of your not-so-little brothers on Instagram lately, you should pump up your muscles again. After all, you are the big brother. Fuck! Is it really 11:00 o'clock already? Then you have to go to the airport right now. Take a shower? You can forget it. You go once with the towel over your sweaty body, take a training jacket over the wet tank top and you chase your Mustang to the airport. Now every minute counts. And the only chance you have is to use every ounce of your charm. And damn it, you're doing great. Your radiant smile, discreet dancing of the pecs. And the lady at the counter still accepts your gym bag. And in the queue at the security check you are let in. And the boarding staff puts you in a free seat in business class. Because seriously, neither you nor your seatmates would have had any fun in the middle seat that was left in economy class. Because you really need a lot of space. And because, frankly, you stink. Fortunately, the two back rows in business class are empty.
In the in-flight program, you first watch a movie. But that is too exhausting for you. Then you discover the cartoon channel. And you can't stop laughing. Ren and Stimpy are simply the coolest of all. Especially Stimpy, he's just as dumb as you are sometimes. Huhuhu! When you turn your phone back on after landing, you have half a dozen messages from your lil bruh. Photos of his armpit. And the question if you can smell him yet. To the displeasure of the lady next to you at the baggage carousel, you send back a picture of your hairy cave and write that you beat all the stink.
Fuck, you both can't believe you haven't seen each other in a year. You almost crush each other as you hug. You both would have the strength to do that. Fuck, your lil bruh has become a beast. You don't take much from each other anymore. As you sit in the car and your brother drives off, he asks if you want to do a bruh-reunion pump before you go home. I thought you'd never ask, you reply with a laugh.
Tumblr media
Happy Fourth of July to you both!

wait, is that TUCKER “TUCK” ATKINSON? they kinda look a lot like NICK ROBINSON, don’t they? i heard the TWENTY ONE year old is known as the THE SOUTHERN GENTLEMAN around mckinley. it seems like they auditioned to be in THE WARBLERS which is so lame? people at campus have said they’re RESPECTFUL, but don’t be fooled since they’re also BLUNT. rumor has it, you can find them at DALTON BASEBALL when they aren’t belting show tunes. their entire vibe revolves around WELL WORN COWBOY BOOTS, A FISH OUT OF WATER, COUNTRY MUSIC BLASTING FROM THE SPEAKERS IN A CAR WITH THE WINDOWS DOWN but no one pays attention to that here in ohio.

🎤 auditioning with… revival by zach bryan
(MORE BELOW THE CUT)
3+ HEADCANONS
TW: Death, Car Accident
His Mom and Dad split when he was only 2 years old, the divorce was messy and though Tucker was originally going to be living with his Mom full-time she passed less than a two years later in a car accident. His Dad didn’t want custody of him so he moved in with his Grandma and Grandpa on his Mother’s side who raised him until this point. They gave him a wonderful childhood filling their home with love and hard work believing that if you wanted something bad enough and you worked hard for it, you could achieve it.
For his first year of college he was originally attending a small college in rural Tennessee on a baseball scholarship as a pitcher. But, the coach that he had agreed to play for received an offer to coach at Dalton instead when the season ended. Starting this new year fresh and moving far away from home he decided to follow the coach and play for Dalton hoping that the slightly larger school and the better competition would push him forward. Unbeknownst to him when he took the new scholarship, his grandparents just told him that his Dad (the one that left him when he was 2) is living just an hour away from his new school.
Tucker has always liked singing, his grandpa taught hims how to play guitar and he was even in a few musicals in middle and high school but he never thought he would have the opportunity to join a show choir like The Warblers until one of its members overheard him singing on campus one day and asked him to join. He’s one of the newest recruits in the group being that it’s his first year at Dalton and so-far he’s not completely sold on the Academy of all boys but is getting used to it.

trampoline.
ignoring his earlier question, she complains, "your son was using me as a trampoline." content tags: fluff, they have a kid and they're married, modern au notes: they name their first born after bruno, i will die on this hill. i also think alfonse would be the type to wear jeans and a nice shirt willingly for a grocery run, though no one has any choice because the family is famous. only one of his kids takes after him in that regard. they're all the type to be comfortable in jeans though
as the door to his shared bedroom creaks open to less than half of its full—out of consideration for his wife who despises all manner of artificial lighting, but especially when her surrounding previously happened to be shrouded in full darkness—alfonse releases his hold on the door knob. his subsequent entrance is accompanied by the sound of his wife's pitiful groan and the cheerful laughter of their four year old as he jumps on top of her.
"papa, papa! i did it!" zach exclaims from his spot on his mother's back. when the lights flicker on, his hands, covered by the sleeves of a light blue hoodie that's too big for him, fly over his eyes; they lower for a brief moment, revealing his dark brown eyes to still be open, before they resume their original position. "the light's on!"
"yup, the lights are on," he humors the boy. amusement, borne from both the exaggerated way his son mimics his mother and his mischievous smile, compels his lips to smile. "did you wake mama up?"
blue eyes glance at the boy's unfortunate victim, lying face down on her side of the bed, as their owner slides his hand into his back pocket in search of his phone. he pulls it out just in time to see his son's response, comprising solely of vigorous nodding.
"really?" alfonse asks, coming to sit at the edge of the bed; he has to move kiran's hand out of the way, but in doing so, he comes out of the experience holding his wife's hand. "she's up?"
zach tilts his head and blinks in confusion. turning his attention back to his still half-asleep mother, he moves her long, dark hair out of the way and pats her back with his sweater paws.
"mama, you're up?"
"mama's up," responds kiran in a tired, muffled voice. "five more minutes."
"which is it then?" the blue-haired man teases.
one arm-wrapping around his son, he pulls the boy off of his mother. the sight of his changed outfit—in particular, the light blue sweater he was made to wear so that zach would take a bath—is fascinating enough for the blue-haired boy to briefly forget about being taken away from his favorite spot. rather than throw a fuss, he quietly in fiddles with the sleeves.
she takes that as her cue to prop herself up on her elbow, freeing her left hand from his grasp and smushing her left cheek as if she has a bone to pick with it. a pout and a huff accompany her now narrowed eyes, the same color as their son.
ignoring his earlier question, she complains, "your son was using me as a trampoline."
the memories of this morning's tantrum—about a bath of all things; don't kids like baths?—flash through his mind, forcing a snort out of him. "i thought we agreed he was your son."
sitting up, kiran leans her back against the bedrest. a hint of amusement glimmers in her eyes, made all the more striking by how blank her expression is. sweater paws in pink—after carding through the full length of her long, messy hair—go after their first victim of the night.
zach looks up; his small hands, once in the middle of dragging alfonse's sweater off his shoulder, drop the fabric they gathered, the same way they tend to drop their owner's toys when a new or rarely seen one makes an appearance.
first priority goes to slipping his arm away. once his son is placed in his mother's embrace, the man pulls his sleeves back up. blue eyes narrow fondly at the once impossible sight before him—of his awkward wife pressing a flurry of kisses over zach's face, giggling as if she's having the time of the world all the while.
"no! 't tickles," their son shrieks delightedly. "papa, help!"
"hmm, should i?" alfonse ponders out loud. his soft smile grows bigger and mischievous at the two conflicting answers he receives. "alright, alright, i'll help."
legs clad in jeans that he's been wearing for the past six hours—around the same time as kiran; having worn it when they were leaving the house for groceries, they'd forgotten about it afterwards—swing up onto the bed, laying flat on either side of the mother-son pair. he leans forward and wraps his arms around his son, but makes no move to actually free him.
kiran pauses her affection, looking up at him with her signature pout and glare. as he closes the distance between them, her expression changes to a cross between begrudging and fond.
"smooth—" she sighs, pecking his lips in return.
dark brown eyes widen as their owner catches up to what she was about to say, releasing zach from her grasp to cover her mouth. taking the opportunity to spirit the blue-haired boy in her arms away, alfonse places him in his lap.
"there we go," he says. "don't use your mother as a trampoline anymore, okay?"
his son nods seriously.

“Just ask,”
A/N: A little something I thought about after watching the season 6 finale of Family Matters (if you know this one, you’re officially ‘cool 😎’). Enjoy! @cassianappreciationweek
Summary: Cassian being a good dad to not just his daughters but also his young soldiers.
Cassian: (sleeping with his wife)
Nesta: (dreaming about stabbing)
Both: (hears a hard bump)😳
Nesta: What the hell was that?
Cassian: Idk. Let’s find out
Both: (gets out of bed)
Nesta: (carrying a dagger)
Cassian: (carrying a bat)
Nesta: (whispers) Why do you have a bat?
Cassian: Why else? To kill them
Nesta: With a bat?! It’ll be too messy.
Cassian: Well I didn’t wanna kill them too quickly
Nesta: You look like you’re going to play baseball at 4 in the morning 😒
Cassian: Shh, someone’s in the kitchen.
Both: (slowly creeps into the kitchen and turns on the light)
???: (eating pickles)……oh hey General 😁
Nesta: General?
Cassian: wait a sec…Zach?!
Zach: (a young Illryian boy) Hey there. Sry, I meant to call but my phone bill went out
Nesta: Um honey, who the hell is this?
Zach: Oh you must be the witch that everyone’s been talking about. Name’s Zach.
Nesta: I wasn’t asking you
Zach: Someone’s grumpy 🙄
Cassian: You just broke into our house. What’s you expect? We give you some food and half our salary and let you run off?
Zach: 🤯 You’ll give me half your salary
Cassian: 😡
Nesta: Why are you in our house
Zach: Oh nothing much. Me and the guys are here to get breakfast
Cassian: Zach, this isn’t even-wait, the guys?
Zach: Yeah. Alex, Kenny, Mike, and Sal.
Nesta: There’s MORE of you
Zach: Sure there is. There’s this thing called multiplying where I come from. You see when a man and a woman love each other very much-
Nesta: I’m gonna rip out your tongue if you don’t shut up
Cassian: Where are they
All: (hears a toilet flush)
Alex: (faerie walks out of bathroom) Sorry. That casserole did not sit well with me. Btw you’re out of TP
Nesta: I’m guessing you’re Alex
Alex: Why yes I am madam 😏
Nesta: 🙄
???: Hey can someone keep it down? We’re trying to sleep
Zach: Sry brah
Cassian: (stomps over to the couch and pulls the cover)
???: BRIGHT LIGHT! BRIGHT LIGHT!
Cassian: Sal! Kenny!
Sal/Kenny: (Kenny’s and Illryian and so is Sal) (sees Cassian) 😳
Kenny: …hiya General
Sal: Lovely night.
Cassian: were you two…just-
Kenny: Oh no of course not.
Sal: Yeah we finished hours ago.
Cassian: (lost for words)
Nesta: Honey, who is it
Cassian: Two people who are about to be sent to the mountains if they don’t get the hell off my damn couch!
Sal: okay okay geez
Kenny: Who died and made him cranky
Cassian: (opens mouth to respond but suddenly remembers) Where’s Mike?
Sal: Huh?
Cassian: Where’s Mike!
Kenny: Oh Michael. Haven’t seen him yet
All: (hears the back down open reveal Mike, a high faerie)
Mike: Hey Zach, did you find any of those Lucky Charms I like
Zach: Nah sry brah. He’s out
Mike: General! How the hell are you out of Lucky Charms?!
Cassian: Mike I swear to the cauldron, I’ll-
Mike: The cauldron will bury you when they find out you don’t have any LUCKY CHARMS!
Zach: Calm down brah. It’s gonna be fine
Mike: Does he at least have some Cocoa Puffs
Zach: Yeah next to the Cheez-Its
Mike: Awesome! (Goes into the pan tree to get cereal)
Nesta: So, how did you get in here? Our house is blocked with magic wards
Zach: The spiral stairs. Took forever
Nesta: Then how did…(gestures to Mike)
Mike: Mike
Nesta: Mike get in here?
Zach: Oh I create a temporary window after I found my way here so the guys could get in. It should be closed now
Mike: SCORE! (Finds the cereal and eats it from the box)
Cassian: Alright that’s it! Out! Everyone out now!
Alex: But I didn’t find my Cheez-Its
Cassian: I said OUT!!!
Sal: killjoy
Kenny: And I wanted to try that French cheese too

Zach: Course I do. I have……water
Cassian: What about food?
Zach: Phew. Food’s overrated

Zach: My parents got divorced. My dad left. My mom and I are offically poor and have no food left
Cassian: So for the past 3 days you haven’t eaten anything
Zach: ……
Cassian: (sighs) Wait here (goes into the kitchen)
Zach: 😕
30 minutes later
Cassian: (comes back with a plate full of food)
Zach: 🤤
Cassian: Here. It’s for you
Zach: (eats it really fast) (burps) Th-Thanks. You didn’t have to-
Cassian: Do you have a place to stay?
Zach: Yeah my mom’s. But…we…
Cassian: I know.
Zach: 😔
Cassian: Alright. Tell you what. My brother, the High Lord-
Zach: Wait?! The High Lord is your brother?!
Cassian: Yes and if you don’t want me to tell him about you and your friends, stay quiet and pay attention.
Zach: 🤐
Cassian: My brother’s looking for an assistant sense me and Azriel, my other brother are preoccupied with the soldiers and the Valkyries. I’ll tell him about you. And I’ll see if I can get you a well paid job.
Zach: 😳 R-R-Really
Cassian: If you do the work right, and still show up for training, I’ll see what I can do.
Zach: That’s…amazing! Idk what to say.
Cassian: But, on one condition.
Zach: Anything
Cassian: No more sneaking around to get food. Especially not at my house. And that goes for the rest of your pals. Got it?
Zach: Totally
Cassian: Next time you need food, just ask.
Zach: Sure thing. Hey uh, Gene-
Cassian: Cass is fine
Zach: Cass…can I have…seconds
Cassian: 😁 You can have as much as you want
Zach: (zooms into the kitchen)
Nesta: (comes in) I heard bits and pieces. What’s going on?
Cassian: Tell yeah in a bit. Right now, for the time being, we have another mouth to feed.

Hi, I have a request if it's okay. A zammie one, where Cam asks zach about his dating/gf history please in zach's pov? Thank you sm!!! 🫶💗
There are things they don’t teach you growing up in the Covert world. Like how to talk to girls. Or boys. They also don’t teach you what happens when you fall in love. And they definitely don’t teach you how to heal a broken heart.
I wasn’t supposed to be going to Gallagher. Obviously. It’s an all girls school. I’m a boy. You can do the math.
But where was I supposed to go when my school (if I could even call it that) blows up? Literally.
So that’s how I found myself in the hallowed halls of the Gallagher Academy. Again. This time without my junior class.
Cammie’s different. Which is to be expected. But I can’t help feeling like it was my fault. I’m the one that told her to run. That we could keep each other safe but, she didn’t listen.
I stare at myself in the mirror, loosening the tie around my neck. It feels like a noose.
I shake my head to clear my thoughts when a knock sounds on the door. It’s probably Dr. Steve. Not really in the mood to deal with him yet, I walk across the room and pull the door open. I stop short. And my stomach does a little flip.
“Hi,” she says, her eyes looking anywhere but at me.
“Hi,” I say back.
She looks so thin. So unlike Cammie. Her hair is a different color and it’s shorter. She’s flighty and fidgety. It’s like she’s searching for an exit, a way out, every chance she gets. It sucks.
She looks down at her feet. “I almost killed him.”
My shoulders fall. That’s what this is about. What happened with Abby. What later happened with Dr. Steve.
I open the door a little wider. “Wanna sit down?” I ask, rubbing the back of my neck. I’ve never had a girl in my room before.
She looks up at me then and finally looks past me into the room. We hadn’t talked since she saw me in a towel. The thought is almost enough to bring a smile to my face but I can’t. Not under the circumstances. Not when she almost killed someone.
Cammie looks around again and then looks at me. “On the bed?”
I glance around. The room isn’t messy and there’s a desk but only one chair. And then the dresser. And the bed. Way to make her uncomfortable Zach.
“Or on the floor,” I say quickly.
She nods and sits down on the floor. The moves are automatic, stiff. It’s like her body isn’t hers anymore. Like she’s an imposter.
I can’t bare the thought. She’s still Cam. She has to be.
As I sit down across from her, she speaks. “Am I the first girlfriend you’ve ever had, Zach?”
I stare at her. Where did that come from? I clear my throat.
“Yeah actually. Not that we ever confirmed that but you’re something, I won’t deny that.” I say truthfully.
She nods like she’s thinking it over. “First crush?”
I can’t help it. I laugh. “First crush? Alexis Greer. Second grade. She had these little pigtails and I accidentally spilled her lemonade or something all over her dress. She…” I laugh again. “She didn’t like that very much because she pushed me and broke my nose.”
Cammie gasps and then laughs with me. I didn’t realize until then just how much I missed her smile. How much I missed her laugh. “What about you?”
She stops laughing and thinks about it for a minute. “Dylan Parker. Kindergarten. He used to chase me around the playground.” Her words are clipped. Rehearsed. I smile at her to keep her from noticing that I noticed. “Anybody else?”
I stare at her and shrug. “Nobody of importance.” She gives me a look and I chuckle, smiling down at my feet. I look up at her again. Looking at Cammie, it’s enough to forget that the earth is moving beneath my feet. Even though I know for certain that it’s still moving, she makes it feel like the earth stands still. I brush a strand of hair behind her ear and she doesn’t flinch. “Because they aren’t you.”
She looks away and then back at me. “Even if I’m crazy?” She whispers.
I shake my head. “You aren’t crazy. Trust me.”
And for the first time since she came back, her shoulders fall like the weight of the world has lifted. And I swear, there was a sparkle back in her eyes.
And as quickly as it appeared, it was gone.

I have an oc couple. Zach and Bella is their name and they give off greens energy. Anyway, when they're older, Zach likes to help Bella do her hair like, when he comes in from work. He helps her detangle and braid her hair, and she shows him the products she uses like coconut oil, conditioner, etc. Sometimes he does her hair while she plays the game, or they watch a sport or movie together until he's like "I need to shower and make dinner." So like, I like stuff like this, "tough guys 'pampering' their ladies " trope. I don't think Buttercup would actually trust Butch with her hair lmao, he might cut it too jagged or something. But he probably trusts her enough to cut or shave his head.
Anyways, i'm talking married/college graduate life, where they're probably casually sharing an apartment and developed a "more serious" relationship. I thought about this gesture of Butch clipping her toe nails after massaging her feet. He likes to take care of her and probably offers to help with very "intimate" deeds as an act of love.
Shoving in the blues to say, if anyone is doing their girls hair right, it's Boomer to Bubbles. He's got the parting and styling down.
But for greens I think Butch would enjoy massaging Buttercup's feet. I don't know. What intimate acts can you imagine the greens doing?🙂💚
Aw that’s very sweet! I love little intimate acts between couples. I won’t lie, it’s hard for me to imagine physically intimate acts because physical touch is the last of my love languages, which is so funny because I h/c that the greens are big on physical touch and have to force myself to write it. For me, I stick to the simple holding each other when they watch tv or fall asleep like they're constantly having to touch each other. Like walking down the street, their knuckles keep bumping, but because they're both "tough" (embarrassed) they can't hold each other's hands in public until later on when their relationship is more established. When they're more established, PDA is more acceptable to both of them. Nothing graphic, just holding hands, pecks on the cheek, or causally resting/wrapping arms around each other.
I think it'd be cute if they were also constantly trying to outmuscle each other, which results in multiple piggyback rides or bridal holds. Massages would definitely make sense. I also imagine a lot of bear hugs and slapping each other's asses when they feel like teasing.
I also think of them as the "quality time" couple. Hiking, going to concerts, and just maintaining a very active lifestyle. I had an outline I never got around to where the greens are engaged, but for whatever reason, Buttercup swears she's going to mess the relationship up because OBVIOUSLY there's friction since she's a good guy and he was once a bad guy, and why would he like her and everyone thinks they're going to break up and she can't let that happen and blah blah blah,
so she's always planning intense couple activities to like self-counsel the relationship, which she definitely only read one magazine article about, and as Bubbles watches her neurotically discuss the next 5k the greens will be running together to ensure a strong, healthy, active relationship, Butch is nodding along with a dopey smile because no one's ever given such a damn about him before.
So, yeah! Secret smiles, sly looks, encouraging words, and effort to make things good for both of them. Oh! and I'm also a huge fucking sucker for the two of them patching each other up after a fight, like good shit, 100% all day every day lets gooooooo yessir there's nothing more intimate than hurt/comfort. if that boy isn't hurt in some way and she ain't fixing him back up, then you know I didn't write it lmaooo
Also, it'd be funny if Bubbles actually hated Boomer doing her hair because they both know he’s better at it, and he’s 100% ready to shove it in her face. Like she throws her hair into a messy ponytail, and he’s like “oh, honey, no, please, what is going on here?” He’s HIM’s child, I make him no other way

Hi bestie I'm making a presentation on Mitch to my friends (please don't ask I have immeasurable brainrot and need to get it out somehow) but I don't really know what to include to really encapsulate all of his... everything so what are your personal favourite moments/ important Mitch lore. Also if you could drop some pics of him sitting on men's laps and engaging in otherwise questionable activity that would also be appreciated lol
oh my GOD. that is SO CUTE and i am so so honored to be called upon to help you with this incredible project.
i feel like (although its in need of an update. not me doing quarterly updates of this mitch marner primer like it's my actual job) my mitch marner primer will have a lot of the content you're looking for (if you haven't already seen it flkjdlsss. apologies in advance for the insanity of this even existing) *also my matt martin tag, justin holl tag, and patrick marleau tag has a lot of adorable gifs and photos!)
random things that immediately come to mind are what justin holl and alex kerfoot and Zach hyman said about mitch that just STAY WITH ME because i feel like they convey what mitch means and is for the people around him: justin holl: “you can’t really put into words how much Mitchy means to this team” alex kerfoot [when asked about where the leafs miss mitch the most - when mitch was out with injury i think]: "we miss him everywhere" zach hyman listing the things he'd want on a desert island: mitch
Other lore stuff (this is going to be very stream of consciousness and messy...apologies in advance)
The way Mitch draws SMILEY FACES and stuff on his gloves to remind him that hockey is supposed to be fun (and sometimes he writes Z on it - presumably for Zeus. Other times he's written H on it for Hayden, a child cancer patient/friend that Mitch befriended during his London Knights Days, which you can read more about here)
THE ENTIRE ATHLETIC ARTICLE about what mitch was like during his London Knights days https://theathletic.com/2469915/2021/03/25/mitch-marner-ohl-season/. THIS IS SUCH A GOOD ARTICLE but does have a paywall…if you don’t have a subscription, copy+pasting the athletic link into here should allow you to bypass
This video of Zach asking reporters if they caught Mitch singing loudly in the lockerroom lmao. I just LOVE how every single Leaf immediately points out Mitch as the one who's most likely to always be busting out into song and dance. I just know he was a Gleek when he was younger i just KNOW IT
What Jon Cooper says about Mitch. i just know jon cooper is smackin his lips somewhere out there wanting to sign mitch to play for him. Coops i know what you are
The way it's literally IMPOSSIBLE for mitch to go ANYWHERE or do anything without acquiring at least 3-5 doting father figures who want to kidnap him and squeeze him like a stress ball (same)
EVERY. SINGLE. THING about the 2015 NHL draft class and the friendship between connor dylan and mitch. every single thing
The way Mitch takes ANY and EVERY opportunity he can to gas auston and his teammates up! and his general inability to chirp anyone without immediately backtracking (most noticeable in the leaf to leaf with matt martin) and being a big loser about it. I know he always says he LOVES getting under his friends' skin and being annoying but i feel like this is like the time he asserted "he was thick for his size"? aka patently false but we love the DELUSION for you, babygirl! no but fr - it is generally impossible for mitch to get through any media appearance without complimenting or referring to auston at LEAST once. that boy is a simp to the core for auston matthews. this i think is even sweeter because - idk about now - but it's pretty clear that mitch's dad saw auston as a massive rival to mitch and a threat to mitch's potential success with the leafs? so mitch's friendship with auston and general "HEART EYES HUMINA HUMINA AWOOOGA HES SO GOOD HES MY BIG BOY HES MY MASSIVE MAN" demeanor about auston is all...in spite of his dad
The way he's never met a goalie he hasn't fallen in love with
The way he loves all dogs and kids (and the way kids seem to gravitate toward him). he's a CARICATURE of a man.
The way he complains and whines SO much whenever his teammate posts a photo without tagging him, even if he's not even in the photo. the constant need for attention. the babygirl behavior!
The way he sTILL HATES VEGETABLES and distrusts soup because of the texture and YET will make "ice cream soup" by mixing it with a spoon until it's all melted before he eats it. like what the fuck? what the fuck.
his utterly guileless warmth and happiness and enthusiasm for LIFE, hockey, and his PALS. he's a little stupid sometimes but he's so sweet and so CUTE and just a little k-pop group maknae-coded man
The way he melts himself into older players' families so thoroughly their kids believe that mitch is actually one of them
Moments of Mitch sitting on other players' laps or generally needing to be the most tactile physical-affection craving baby:
mitch and matt napping and spooning
this just makes me laugh bc mitch...wat are u doin
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
anyway, i will end this with what my friend said about mitch: i think once you're friends with mitch you just accept that he will be cuddling and spooning and draping himself over you. look. all these men clearly have the tired expressions of 'look, mitch just happened to me i didnt have a choice.'

Peter moaned at the sight , rutting faster, and pushing in deep the instinct to breed coursing through him, he shivered and whined happily at being called a good boy, his tail wagging back and forth quickly . “Mmhm~ yes yes want to be a good boy “ it was his weakness being praised .
He licked into Zach’s mouth eagerly groaning as his knot began to grow and expand . “Hnngh~”
-------
@fictionrps
Zach moaned as Peter licked into his mouth, happily accepting the tongue, god he loved canines, they were so messy. "Harder, fuck him harder," he said against his mouth, thrusting deep into Pip's throat, feeling the old dog quivering as he was used from both ends.

Oh but I definitely would love you to answer 20 for all the babies as well! Sorry if it's a lot!!!
No don’t worry! I compiled all the 20s for each character here:
From This
20.) What are YOU most proud of about your character?
Abigail - She seems like she has a mind of her own, and I’m… Hoping that makes her feel more complex and not just confusing somdflfktm. Like, there are many different sides to her and she is messy like I think real people can be.
Max - He has remained 100% good boy all around since jump. I feel like he is nice and comforting bc he was also my 2nd ever OC and since he occupies his own condensed lil universe I feel less pressure to connect everything into his story.
Jude - Probably my favourite moodboards I have made for were for her, her aesthetic I think is really pretty and she has one of my favourite designs. While she has stayed fairly basic tbh she does have this inner conflict that’s fun to explore.
Zach - His aesthetic is also on point at least in my opinion. Also I actually really appreciate that he is my first and only character so far for people to have differing opinions on him, because that makes sense to me, he is morally complicated even if he tries to be a good man.
Apollo - I’m proud of his name, since I ended up choosing one which not only fit as the ‘brother’ of Archie, (Archimedes and Apollonius were both Greek mathematicians, and another Apollonius had several similarities to Jesus…) and ‘Apollo’ just feels right.
Ciarán - How I managed to bullshit my way into fleshing out his character I still don’t quite know LMAO but I think he has this quite mysterious aura still… I also enjoy how he feels like a character from an old fairytale/storybook or a myth sometimes.
Adam - I am honestly quite proud of how unique his concept is and how much symbolism (my fave) I managed to work into his character so far. Like all my other characters are relatively standard/tropey which is why I like them, but Adam is different, he gives such daylight/stepford smiler horror vibes to me.

Hello,
I’d love to share some lovely conversations my brother and I have had to no one in particular, more or less to the void and if one person finds it humorous then I’ve accomplished something.
*Dark humor-Unaliving, Abusive Parentals*
*Also, included some with my mother because she’s just wow… 😂*
Truly, don’t read below the belt if you’re sensitive—protect your heart, we just coping, and lightweight trauma dumping but like in a funny way and in a way that allows you to just skip right on by because nonconsensual trauma dumping is messy as fuck. 🤪
——
Pier 39 — SF
“I like your shirt.”
(Natasha Romanoff shirt, duh 🤪)
“Thank you..”
“That’s how you find the women loving women…”-Me whispering to my brother.
“Which was shocking to me because she’s in an American flag shirt.”-Zach
“You can be gay and stupid, we don’t discriminate.”-Me
At the State fair
“Come on Zach, do the hang on challenge.” (Aunt)
“I’ll do the hang on challenge if it’s with a rope.”
*Playing Pokémon Go* (3)
*Solrock flees*
Me: "That bitch fled… I'm tryna play
Pokémon, not be reminded of my dad"
Katy: "Was it a Hitmonchan?"
Tumblr media
(Zach’s dad was a POS, as were all of Eva’s partners 👊🏻👀)
-
“You sound like a rabbit eating a carrot.”-Rachel(eldest sister)
“You sound like a bitch!”-Me
“I can live with that.”-R
“You already live with that. With many…”-Z
“What?”-Me
“I’m not going to elaborate”-Z
“Not you! Not you!”-Z in a panic
-
“Why are we cheering in the bathroom?”-Me
“I don’t think that’s cheering…😳”-Z
*Seeing Smile*
“No, because if it was me I’d kill myself in front of my boyfriend. Don’t believe me? Well you will now”—Me
“Not you imagining yourself having a boyfriend”-Alex(bestie)
At the SF zoo
*Family friendly train ride rolls by, random kids wave to us/we wave back*
“Should I pull a Josh?” I ask my brother, who snickers while we evade our aunt’s glare.
Tumblr media
(Our brother Josh unalived by train, my boy kinda lost his head (but literally 🥁) in 2016, enjoy this tribute tattoo 😂)
*5 minutes later*
“You know, I was talking to mom about Josh, and I was wondering if anyone was listening to music when it happened.”
*Stares knowingly*
“I bet it was a head banger”
“Not many people train to commit suicide, but…”-Zach
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media

Mom—😳😂
She’s a menace—I don’t wish to post this and offend anyone who lives with bipolar, but this is just my personal experience with a mother who chooses to remain unmedicated.
I’d also like to say I’m not perfect, there are times when I could be more patient, or cautious with my words, but it’s also really hard to get through to a woman who never sees what she’s done wrong throughout your lifetime. And I’m 26 years worth of exhausted, so cut me a break, it’s hard work being the black sheep of both sides of the family 😂
Promise I’m only showing what I deemed funny after the hurt was over, I’m a-okay my dudes 😂
*random ramblings*
“I’m nice until you fuck with me.”-M
“I’m never nice.”-Me
Tumblr media
All in a days work 😂😂
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Now why she send me this song?? 😂😂😂

OH MAN. i just can't imagine what they've been going through. i wish they could drop some details, but from the way they're talking, it seems like a lot of what the internet is speculating about is true???
so so messy!!! also i miss eugene lol.
yesss i miss Eugene on the trypod but he doesn't enjoy doing it:( lots of love that they're so respectful of that and instead bring the rest of the employees in to learn and enjoy it instead. legally they can't drop details + respect to will (alex's ex) and of course ariel and her boys. but from what i've seen ned did NOT leave peacefully which is probably why they can't go into it in detail, he would probably sure. they also acknowledge that "shady" part of him when they bring up his copying the font & style of their statement and keith is obviously bothered by this a LOT. yes it is true, alex and ned were in a relationship, the affair lasted close to a YEAR. whilst she was engaged to her bf of 10-11 years? insanity. i can't believe the stress from ned broke zach's dishwasher 💔

sooooooooooooooooooooo in cmh zach said "your boyfriend's private" and cam wa slike you are not my bf, and zach was kinda pissed and said I noticed, why do you think he said that? like is that a hint he wants to be her bf around that time already? and can you please please make a zach pov of it?
In CMH, when zach said that cam isn't over josh, but she will be, do you think at this point he likes her already
In CMH zach told cam that she likes her boyfriend's private, soooo my question is, do you think this is the point where zach was hinting that he likes her for real and wants to be her boyfriend?
sooooooooooooooooooooo in cmh zach said "your boyfriend's private" and cam wa slike you are not my bf, and zach was kinda pissed and said I noticed, why do you think he said that? like is that a hint he wants to be her bf around that time already? and can you please please make a zach pov of it?
I remember on twitter, ally said that if it is zach's pov, it would be a lot of ooh that cammie girl doesn't know shes great and I feel like it's mostly for CMH, but when do you think that thoughts turn into something more? like when he starts thinking about her in a great, romantic, i'm crushing way?
Okay so I got a couple asks regarding Zach’s feelings for Cammie and when exactly they started to flourish and whatnot. This is all my interpretation and I only skimmed my books so I’m sorry if I missed something important. But I am putting a full diagnosis below and combining it all 😇
For me it was like the end of chapter 11 when Rachel said the whole “I think you guys are going to forge friendships that’ll last a lifetime” speech. I feel like that was when Zach kinda made the switch from distance to hey-this-is-kinda-cool. But not necessarily in a i-want-to-be-your-boyfriend kinda way. I think it was more of an oh-my-god-I-actually-completed-my-tail-assignment-and-this-girl-thinks-she’s-so-out-of-my-league-but-we’ll-see-about-that kinda way. And an holy-cow-this-girl-really-knows-her-stuff kinda way.
Like I don’t think it was an automatic crush. And I don’t want to think of Zach as the type of boy that would consider Cam a challenge because she didn’t like him yet. That definitely wasn’t Zach at all. I don’t see Zach as a player or anything like that. But, I do believe he was definitely crushing on Cam after Tina asked if he and Cam were a thing and she “relinquished” her claim to him. Which is chapter 13.
It doesn’t help that right after that, they see Josh in the next chapter. Literally chapter 14. And I’m sure seeing Josh out and about was extremely jarring to Cam, making her completely forget about the mission at hand. And I’m sure it didn’t help on Josh’s end because here’s Cammie and here’s Zach. Two people that he can’t quite remember. Like an itch he can’t scratch. There’s something there that doesn’t make sense. Something is missing to him. And he just can’t figure it out. And it doesn’t help that here’s Cammie shocked that she sees Josh with DeeDee and also shocked that Zach is pretending to be her boyfriend when that hasn’t even been established or confirmed yet. It’s all just messy.
And it’s not until afterwards when he asks her why she froze in the gazebo in chapter 14 and the ball scene in chapter 16 that Zach realizes that he actually actively cares about her. Because she goes missing. And she froze out in the middle of an Op. And he wants to know what’s wrong with her. Why did she freeze up? Why is she so anxious? What’s really going on inside her head? Why does she need to flee the grand hall? And also, we find out why he didn’t want people to know just yet that they were alone together. Because he wasn’t ready for that. And I think because he also didn’t want to put Cammie on the spot because again…. Nothing had been truly established yet.
Which leads me into when Zach said “I noticed I’m not your boyfriend” which is in chapter 18. By this point there’s so much going on in the book. They’re training and Joe is all about CoveOps and working together in the field. And Mrs. Dabney is all about the formal aspect of it all and trying to teach them what it means to actually be partners in disguise and the political aspect too. And there’s girls running around flirting with every boy they see and everyone’s basically pulling at them and trying to form some sort of relationship with them because oh-my-god-there’s-boys-here-at-an-all-girls-school! And Cam is trying to figure out just who Zach really is because he is definitely not going to tell her outright. And Zach is so focused on figuring Cammie out. (What was so special about that kid at the diner? What was so special about him that she almost jeopardized the game of coin tag? And why won’t she let him—Zachary Goode—- in?) Which is why he gets upset when she clarifies that he isn’t her boyfriend. He was only trying to joke about it with her saying “she likes her interludes secret and mysterious. Boyfriend’s private”. I also don’t think he even knew that he wanted her to be something more. He was just focused on the fact that there was something there between them.
Even in DJGC after he dips her and kisses her in the foyer, it’s so messy. Like he just up and leaves and he’s busy and Cam can’t stop thinking about him and there’s so much there. But we have to remember that they’re only kids. And also by that point the circle is after Cam and my girl is just trying to survive. The last thing she wants on her mind is Zach. And that’s also why Zach was everywhere on the campaign trail. He was trying to make sure that she was safe and okay. Because he knew that the circle was targeting her. Or at least Macey at the time.
Also I will make Zach POVs of the scenes requested next 😇

"I can't wait to hit that!" Mike gave a subtle point with his finger at the light skinned black girl sitting at the far left of us, stretching on the gym floor. "Got her number at lunch yesterday. She told me to come over Friday after school. So you know what that means." He started making obnoxious moaning sounds while pounding his fists on the bleachers. Typical young high school kid shit.
Mike was the high school pretty boy. Fly gear, good hair & tall. His grades were shit but when it came to the ladies, he was passing with flying colors. So much that us regular guys used to make bets every year on which new girl Mike would hook up with first. And this year he had his eyes set on Mandy. The light skinned black girl in gym glass who would stretch before volleyball games. And us guys would watch her like hawks.
We had just finished up our football game so we had a few minutes to relax & drool over the ladies before the gym teacher would tell us to 'go be active.' Volleyball wasn't our thing, so most of the fellas would play more contact sports. Anthony (Ant) blurted out our next move. "Half court dodgeball." We all looked at him confused. Mike let out a fake laugh. "Yeah sure Ant. With what ball? The red one is done for & that black one got stolen so... yeah. Not happening." Ant sucked his teeth & sank back into the bleacher seat behind him. Ant was the 'ideas' man. Short, nerdy but super chill kinda dude. Also had a bit of a temper if you ever pushed his buttons too hard. He actually got suspended for 2 weeks one year for slamming a senior onto a lunch table & telling him he was gonna "slit his throat" if he ever touched his fries again. Ever since then he was Ant. The short, strong nerd kid who picked up and slammed a 6 foot tall senior jock & lived to tell about it.
Zach, was the only white dude in our little crew of random black kids. He hung with us because we never judged him for being the way he was. He dressed & acted like us but lived the suburban life back home. And we didn't give a shit. And if anybody stepped to him for 'acting black'... we would let them know what time it was. That was our thing. We all bonded because we were all different in some interesting ways. In ways we didn't see in other kids at school. And we looked out for each other. Even if some of us never threw a punch a day in our lives.
But back to Zack, who decided to wake up from his pot head nap to chime in on our conversation. He sat up straight & fixed his long gold link chain & dragon charm. "I brought that ball back. Like a week ago. Naw wait. Two days ago." Now HE was the recipient of our confused looks. "Brought WHAT ball back?" I said slowly in hopes that he would for once give us a clear and coherent answer. "That black dodgeball. Threw it under the bleachers so no one could use it." We all turned and looked at each other & communicated without speaking. As if we were all trying to decipher Zachs weed smoker logic, & then came to whatever conclusions made the most sense to us.
Mike gave Zachs arm a quick slap with the back of his hand. "Ok so get your ass up & get it dude!" Zach let out a goofy sounding low toned chuckle. "Naw bro, it's like waaaaay under there. Way too dark and dusty too." He pulled at the tongue of one of his all white Air Forces to let us know exactly why he wasn't the man for the job.
Before any of us had the chance to roast Zach for his lame ass excuse, I jumped up made my way down the set of bleachers to retrieve our dodgeball. "Fuck it, I'll get it." I looked down at my all black outfit & had a moment of pause in my head. Too late now. Ant wasn't far behind me. "If you get stuck or can't get it, lemme know." He said. As well dressed as Ant was, he somehow managed to keep his clothes spotless even in the most messy of situations. I gave him a 'good lookin out' nod & readied myself to head under.
From where I was standing I could see our dodgeball. Just sitting there, looking back at me. Probably wondering why it was under there in the first place.  Making my way to it was pretty easy. It was just a matter of not smaking my head off of anything while I moved. Half way under, I did this thing I do sometimes. I jokingly thought to myself... 'What if these bleachers just started to close in on me? Like if this was all just a set up? I wonder how much time I would have before I got crushed? Oh shit.'
A slightly echoing voice called from behind me. "You see it?... you got it?" I picked up the dodgeball along with fingers full of dust and debris that had accumulated around the bottom of it. "Yeah I got it." Ant disappeared to tell the rest of the crew the good news. The crouch walk back was a bit more tedious. I felt like I was holding onto a precious artifact, while also trying not to bang my head off of anything. I was just about all the way from underneath when I remembered. 'Bleachers closing in 5... 4... 3... 2...' I gave myself a longer last second countdown & did a small jump out into the gym lights & fresh air. Mike and the rest of them were already gathered on the right side of the gym floor.
I jogged over and went for a lazy layup with the dodgeball & missed. Mike grabbed it from it's stationary bounce and started doing his 'And 1' moves before tossing the ball to Zach with some force behind the pass. He caught it off balance and played it off with a spin move & a few dribbles between his legs.
Ant looked at the stragglers who were still hanging out on the bleachers. "Half court dodgeball! Who's down to play?!?" We got a few glances back, a few 'no thanks' gestures, & a few mumbles, but nobody got up from the bleachers.
Ant turned back to us and shrugged. "Ay man I tried." And to be fair, the stragglers pretty much consisted of the 'fuck everything' & 'no contact' kids. So half court anything was pretty much a no go.
I walked over to Zach who was still in his dribbling zone out & snatched the
dodgeball from him. I shot from half court & missed again. Basketball it is.
