PART 2 of I Never Meant to Memorize your Smile
âYouâve got dried cum in your hair.â Your lips brushed her shoulder blade. Gawon's spine stiffened. âWhat?â
âMorning, sunshine.â She twisted, fingers probing her scalp. âTell me you didnât ejaculate into my hair last night.â âWouldnât dream of it. Though⌠Exhibit A - â You tapped a pearlescent streak on her lower back. â - and Exhibit B.â A glint near her hairline. [1] [1] 'Aim' undersells it. Last night was less a targeted strike and more a Jackson Pollock session across her skin. Stain #1 ended with her pressed against the shower wall as you sprayed load after load over her face. Stain #2: the final piece of the day; Exhausted beyond belief, you came across her back, and the both of you collapsed from exhaustion. It's really a miracle the rest came off relatively easily. She groaned. âItâs crystallizing. Like sea salt.â âAdds texture.â You nuzzled the nape of her neck, inhaling lilac and sex. âStay. Five more minutes.â âYour semen is petrifying on my skin and you want to cuddle?â âYes.â Your hand slid down her stomach. âItâs proof.â
âOf what? Your inability to control your own - â âThat we wrecked each other so thoroughly last night.â Your thumb circled her navel. âThatâs hot.â She snorted. âYouâre disgusting.â âYour disgust sounds suspiciously like pride.â âFine. But if this gluey patch near my ear isnât coconut oil, Iâm bleaching your favorite jeans.â 'Of course.' 'Lay back,' she said, still facing away from you, legs curled and slotted against your knees. 'I wanna see something.' You gently rolled onto your back, sinking into the pillow. She turned, entering your periphery with sleep-gleamed eyes and pink lips. 'Try swallowing,' she said, moving closer. You swallowed. Her lips found your neck right in the midst: a wet kiss to your Adam's apple. The sensation lingered. 'Why'd you do that?' 'Why not?'
Why not. Those two words contained everything: why not when you're curled against her like this, why not when you're deep inside her, why not when you're breathing in the sweet scent of her skin. She shifted back, still within the circle of your arms, her hair tickling your forehead. 'I'm all sore. No thanks to you.' 'I was adjusting to your needs. And your needs... are an acquired taste.' You snuggled upward, her hair now feathering across your chest, almost ticklish. She had no defense. 'The champagne was a nice touch.' 'Which bottle?' She tilted her face up, eyes still heavy but alert. 'Don't pretend there weren't multiple bottles. I counted at least three.' 'Two and a half. The third was already open.'
'Because you opened it.' Gawon turned over completely, facing you now. Goddess. Goddess. You didn't say it aloud, but she probably knew what you invoked with each gulp, each strained touch, each unfettered breath. [1]
-
[1] The thing about thinking "goddess" repeatedly during sex is that it's simultaneously the most embarrassing and most accurate thought possible. Like yes, technically we all know about oxytocin and dopamine and whatever chemical cocktail makes you temporarily insane, but that doesn't explain why her particular face makes your brain short-circuit into worship mode. Modern therapy would probably have words for this - "idealization" or "projection" or some other term that completely misses the point that sometimes a person just is that magnificent and your brain is simply reporting facts.
-
A comfortable pause; No awkwardness anymore, just the luxury of looking.
'Details.' You brushed a strand of hair from her face and planted a soft kiss on her forehead. 'How's your head?'
'Fine. I switched to water after the first few toasts. Unlike someone.'
'You're a lightweight.'
'I know. But you didn't fare much better.' She laughed properly then, burying her face in your chest. 'Certified Chair Tester.'
The memory clicked into place. 'Ah. I made you rate the chairs.'
'Yup. And I rated them all tens because I was tipsy.'
'A flimsy critic in my bed. How appalling.'
She poked your chest. 'You were swaying. It was way too funny to focus on furniture evaluation.'
'It's important information. What if we need to know which one's most comfortable?' 'At two in the morning?' 'Especially at two in the morning. That's prime chair-testing time.' 'You're ridiculous.' 'You helped.' 'Someone had to make sure you didn't fall off the balcony furniture.' 'I was perfectly stable.' 'You tried to serenade a potted plant.' 'It looked lonely.' She propped herself up on an elbow to study your face. 'What did you even sing to it?' 'I don't remember.' She blew at your face. You blinked. 'Liar. You remember everything.' 'Only the important things.' 'So what's important about last night?' You pretended to consider. 'Well, first, the sex - ' 'Hey.' Her hand found your shoulder in mock protest. 'Alright, but⌠come on.' You made the face that said you know it was, and she buried her face in your chest again, giggling. 'Fine. It wasâŚ' 'The best.' Another gentle smack. 'Then champagne in blankets. Plant serenading - ' 'You serenaded the plant.'
' - chair testing. When's the next time, anyway?'
'Never happening.' 'Come on.' You caught her hand, interlacing your fingers. Her skin was smooth, like heated marble. 'The way you looked in that dressâŚ' 'Now you're just being smooth.' You traced her hand - the knuckles, the flesh between finger joints, her careful nails. 'Is it working?' 'Maybe.' She leaned in for a soft kiss. 'What else?' 'The way you insisted on ranking every wine from the minibar.' 'Research purposes.' 'On hotel stationary. With ratings out of ten.' 'What do you have against proper documentation?' Her eyes gleaming. Cute. [2]
-
[2] There's something deeply unhinged about making someone rate wines at 2 AM, but it's also exactly the kind of thing that seems brilliant when you're three drinks in and she's wearing your shirt and everything feels possible. The fact that she went along with it - actually took notes, actually assigned numerical values to '$8 minibar Chardonnay' - is probably why you're doomed. Anyone who matches your weird that precisely is either your soulmate or your downfall, and honestly⌠what's the difference?
-
'Nothing. Found it adorable.' You chased her as she dodged your kiss. 'What was the winner again?' 'The RosÊ. Obviously.' 'Mm.' Your fingers found their way into her hair. 'We should probably get up soon.' 'Why?' 'Sooin's coming at 11:30.' She reached for her phone, squinting at the screen. 'That's⌠two hours away.'
'Exactly. Soon.' 'Your concept of time is broken.' The phone dropped back to the nightstand as she curled into you. 'Five more minutes.' 'You said that twenty minutes ago.' 'Did I? Must have been someone else.' 'In this bed?' 'Could be anyone. Very large bed.' 'True. I should check.' You shifted theatrically. 'Excuse me, mysterious person, have you seen my girlfriend?' She pinched your side. 'Stop.' 'About this tall, beautiful - and I mean beautiful - and makes spreadsheets about minibar wine?' 'I hate you.' 'Makes terrible threats?' She kissed you longer this time, a proper good morning. 'Better?' 'Getting there.' 'Impossible.' But she smiled against your mouth. 'What would make it better?' 'Hmm. Maybe if the mysterious bed person knew where my pants went.' 'Bathroom door.'
'How - ' 'You hung them very carefully while explaining the importance of wrinkle prevention. Very drunk. Very serious.' 'I was thoughtful.' 'You were tipsy trying to be responsible. It was cute.' 'Just cute?' 'And amusing.'
'I'll take it.' You caught her hand, kissed her palm. 'Though I notice your dress made it to an actual hanger.'
'I'm efficient even when compromised.'
'Compromised?'
'Slightly⌠influenced. By alcohol. And you.'
'Me?'
'You kept doing that thing.'
'What thing?'
Pink crept into her cheeks. 'The thing where you look at me likeâŚ'
'Like?'
'You know.' She hid her face in your neck. 'Stop making me say nice things. Too early.'
'It's past 9:30.'
'Weekend rules.'
'Since when do you follow weekend rules?'
'I'm adopting them. Selectively.' Her breath warmed your skin. 'Rule one: no embarrassing admissions before coffee.'
'After coffee?'
'We'll see.'
You wrapped both arms around her, content in the absurd luxury of this hotel bed. The room still held last night palpably - an empty glass on the far table, her shoes abandoned by the door, balcony doors cracked to let in cool morning air. Most importantly, her hair: properly mussed, frizzy where you grabbed it, where she moved in rhythm with your body. [3]
The morning stretched ahead, full of nothing but this.
-
[3] The morning-after hair observation thing is such a clichĂŠ it hurts, but: you become a forensic expert in the evidence of your own happiness. Every tangle says "this happened," every misplaced strand means "we were here, we were real, we were absurdly alive at 3 AM." It's pathetic how much meaning you can extract from follicular displacement, but then again, memory needs its anchors, and if yours happen to be keratin-based, so be it.
-
'It was nice watching you and Sooin together. All the history there.' 'Seven years of questionable decisions,' she murmured. 'Good decisions. Like this hotel room.' 'Mmm. I'll tell Sooin you approve.' She yawned. 'She'll be insufferable.' 'She's already insufferable. That's why we love her.' 'True.' A pause settled between you. 'Do you think she's okay? About the exhibition?' 'She will be. She always is.' 'I know. I just worry.' She shifted to look at you properly. 'Is that silly?' 'No. It's what you do.' You tucked her hair behind her ear. 'It's nice.' 'Nice?' 'Adorable. The kind where you pretend you're not soft but you actually are.' 'I'm not soft.' 'You made her a good luck playlist.' 'That's just being supportive.' 'With color-coded sections.' '���Organizational efficiency.' 'And little notes for each song.'
She buried her face in the pillow. 'Stop knowing things.'
'Never.' Your hand found her back, rubbing gentle circles. 'Hey. She's going to be brilliant. You know that, right?' 'I know.' Her voice came out muffled. 'I just want good things for her.'ⴠ'They'll happen.' She turned her head to peek at you. 'You really think so?' 'I do. And if not, we'll be there with emergency mimosas and terrible jokes.' 'Your jokes are terrible.'
'That's the point.' She smiled, reaching up to trace your face. She kissed your closed eye. You held her closer. Her eyes, the small mole on the tip of her nose. Palpable, the universe of you two. 'I love you.' She whispered. You kissed her in turn. 'I thought no embarrassing admissions before coffee.' Pink crept up her neck as she hid her face again. You pulled her closer. 'Nowhere else I'd rather be.' 'Even with mysterious bed people?' 'Especially then.'
She laughed, tugging you down for another kiss. 'Okay. Fifteen more minutes, then we really do have to get up.'
'Deal.'
'I mean it this time.'
'Sure you do.'
'I'm setting an alarm.' But she made no move toward her phone, already melting back into your arms.
'Very convincing.'
'Shh. Weekend rules. No calling out contradictions before coffee.'
'I thought that was embarrassing admissions.'
'I'm making new rules as needed.'
'Of course you are.' You kissed the crown of her head. 'Fifteen minutes.'
'Fifteen minutes.'
The promised alarm never materialized. Instead, your mouth found hers again, morning breath be damned. Your hands sprawled across her honey skin, palms pressing against the beginning swell of her breasts, circling slightly, drawing out those perfect little half-groans.
When you shifted to bracket her body with yours, she squealed playfully, pressing her palm against your shoulder. 'Someone's feeling bold.'
'Just thorough. You seemed cold.' The lie was transparent. She knew it, fingers already tracing your shoulder, eyes holding that particular heat from last night. 'Thorough, he says. Is that what we're calling it?' You answered by kissing the corner of her mouth, working your way to that spot below her ear that made her breath catch. She tilted her head automatically, a response coded into muscle memory. 'You're terrible,' she breathed.
'The worst,' you agreed against her skin. 'Absolutely the - oh.' Her words dissolved as you found that perfect junction of jaw and neck. Then, disaster: pins and needles shot down your supporting arm. She noticed immediately. 'Did your arm just fall asleep?' You lied by her side. With a big grin. So beautiful, when she smiles. 'Maybe.' 'Adorable. My strong man, defeated by his own circulation.'[1] Her hands worked your forearm back to life. 'Better?' You flexed your fingers in response. She caught your index finger, pressed a kiss to the tip. 'Competen - '
'Don't even start.' Her eyes blazed with mischief. 'Maybe stick to positions that don't require gymnastic endurance?' You pulled her firmly against you, her waist bending perfectly as she gasped. Your mouth found the flexing tendon of her neck, tongue tracing hollows and dips as she arched into you. Fifteen minutes became thirty. Thirty became an hour. Sooin could wait.
-
[1] All taut sinew; the next, your nerve stages a coup, flooding your limb with the fizzy static of a thousand dying televisions. The humiliation is exquisite: biology reminding you that youâre essentially a sentient meat puppet piloted by faulty wiring and whimsical blood flow. You try to play it off - Ah, just my corporeal vessel rebelling against transcendence! - but internally, youâre drafting furious letters to Evolution: âRE: Poor Design Choices in Homo Sapiens Model #27B-6. SUGGESTION: Prioritize limb reliability over, say, toe hair or the ability to taste cilantro as soap.â Itâs the universe whispering, through pins and needles, that even ecstasy is provisional, subject to maintenance, and probably overdue for an upgrade.
-
Her breath hitched when your lips found the edge of her jaw. You kissed the hard angle first, then traced the taut cord of muscle down to the soft dip beneath her chin. When your mouth finally covered hers, it wasnât gentle. âHowâs that for competent?â You growl. Into her mouth. Her breathless mouth. Inching for any opportunity to breathe. You sealed her protest with your tongue. Her hands locked behind your nape pulling you closer until her breasts flattened against your chest, nipples hardening directly on your skin. The scent of her skin - salt and gooseberries and lilac - flooded your nostrils as she arched into you. Your palm slid down her outer thigh, fingertips catching on the fabric of her panties. Higher. Over the curve of her ass, gripping the fabric until the muscle tensed under your hand. She moaned into your mouth, grinding against your hip, her bare feet wrapped around you, holding on for dear life. Then her hand was on you - fingers curling around the thick outline of your cock through your underwear, squeezing just enough to draw a ragged groan from your throat. You felt the damp heat between her legs when your thumb brushed her clothed pussy.
âFuck me,â she gasped, hips jerking as you pushed two fingers past her waistband, through slick folds. âTurn around.â She smirked before she pivoted, turning around, back pressed to your chest. You hooked your thumbs in her panties - black lace - and dragged them down to mid-thigh, perfectly profane. Her skin burned where your knuckles brushed her inner leg. 'Please.' She pleaded, pushing her ass against your erection' You fumbled with your underwear, cock springing free against her lower back. She guided you with a hand behind her, fingers wrapping your shaft, angling you downward. Your first thrust grazed into her. Too tight.
âWrong - ,â she yelped, pain and laughter trembling. 'Oh fuck. I'm so sorry.' You sidle up next to her, 'Are you - '' 'Keep going. Don't ruin the mood. Keep going. Please.' You choked; you adjusted, the head of your cock catching on wetness this time. She gasped as you pushed past swollen flesh, sinking an inch into her. Her inner muscles clenched.
âDeeper.â she begged, fingers clawing at your thigh. âPlease - â You drove forward until your hips met her ass. A choked cry tore from her throat as she took your full length. She was fracturing. 'Fuck. Fuck - ' You held still, letting her adjust, feeling the flutter of her walls around you. 'Take it. Take it.' You breathe out, out of breath, fucking her into heaven. Nothing to offer but your length divvied into her wet walls. Hips pinned against her every turn. Your cock kissing her cervix - the rim of her moist cunt pressed oh so tight, filthy, dirty. âShouldâve - ah - aimed better,â she panted, rolling her hips to take you deeper still. You moved then - thrusts that dragged just so, perfectly, leaving just the crown of your cock before pressing your full length inside her. Her moans sharpened, pitching higher with each retreat, each return. You slid a hand around her hip, fingers finding her drenched folds, circling her swollen bud as you fucked her. Her thighs shook. âCome on,â you urged, thumb pressing hard. âLet go.â You fucked deeper. Restraining her neck, her back compressing into an arch that left nothing in the middle. Only her nape and ass pressed against you. You dug your palm into her navel, 'Cum for me. Princess. Cum for me.' You growl, drawl. Her back arched, more than before. More than what should be possible. A scream ripped through her as she came, muscles milking your cock. Pulse after pulse. You groaned, and you followed, hips slamming forward as release tore deep into your muscles, your bones. Rope after rope. Cum served right to her cervix. Glancing off the walls, eventually sickeningly spread all inside her, filled to the brim, spilling like lava through the slightest crevice of her folds. All she could offer was a soft sigh.
-
Her back was to you, she was still trembling. Sweat glued the both of you together. Your fingers stroked the damp hair at her nape.
'I don't think I can walk.'
You smile. 'Who said you had to walk?'
âMmm,â she hummed, turning in your arms. âSuch a charmer.â Her hand slid down your chest, pausing at your abdomen. âProve those muscles arenât just for show. Carry me.â
You lifted her easily, fireman-style. Her laughter vibrated against your neck as you carried her to the bathroom.
She opened the doors. 'Though I'd be of help, you know, my arms, and your legs situation.'
'Appreciate the assistance.' You jokingly say.
The shower hissed, steam immediately fogged the mirror.
âBrunch with Sooin later. Before her exhibition.â she said, a reminder to herself. Water sluiced through her hair, darkening it to ink.
You followed, hands sliding over her slick shoulders. âAnd after?â
She tilted her face up, droplets catching on her lashes. âHavenât decided.â Your palm cupped her breast, thumb rubbing a taut nipple. She sighed, leaning back into you. âMaybe weâll just⌠see.â
'Wait.' You reached for the shampoo, squirting some into your palm. 'Did Gawon just suggest winging it?'
'I'm full of surprises.' She turned, presenting her back to you as you worked the shampoo through her hair.
'Next you'll tell me you threw out your color-coded calendar.'
'Let's not get crazy.' She was soft, content. Her head steadily went along with your touch. 'This feels nice though.'
'What does?'
'Not knowing. Just⌠being here with you.' She leaned back slightly into your touch.
'Even with soap in your eyes?'
'Especially with soap in my eyes.' She laughed, swiping at her face. 'Very romantic. Really setting the mood.'
'I do my best.' You helped rinse her hair, fingers gentle against her scalp. 'So this spontaneous Gawon - should I be worried?'
'Terrified.' She grinned up at you. 'I might suggest something really wild. Like trying that new Thai place without checking reviews first.'
'The horror.'
'Or walking through the park without a clear idea.'
'Now you're just talking nonsense.'
'I'm learning spontaneity from you. So to speak.'
'That's either very sweet or you're setting me up for something.'
'Can't it be both?' She reached for the conditioner. 'Your turn. What do you want to do today?'
'Honestly?' You took the bottle from her. 'Whatever makes you keep smiling like that.'
'Smooth talker.' But her smile widened. 'Though I notice you didn't actually answer.'
'Maybe I'm learning from you. Keeping my options open.'
'A convert!' She pressed a wet hand to her chest in mock surprise. 'My work here is done.'
'So Sooin at⌠noon?'
'Eleven-thirty. She's got that exhibition at two.' Gawon tilted her head as you worked conditioner through the ends of her hair. 'She's nervous about it.'
'Art?'
'Mhm.'
'She'll nail it.' You guided her back under the water. 'She's got that whole eccentric thing down.'
'I'll tell her you said that.' She wiped water from her eyes. 'She thinks she's too cheerful for the part.'
'Thatâs charm though. No one has energy like her.'
'She contains multitudes.' [1] Gawon's eyes sparkled with mischief. 'Speaking of which, you never told me who your favorite poet actually is.'
-
[1] Gawon deploys Whitman quotes like other people deploy "um" or "well". It's her tell. You've catalogued them all: 'I contain multitudes'; 'I am large' when caught crying at a commercial; 'Do I contradict myself?' when she changes dinner plans for the third time. If you were confronted on behalf of her, you'd say, to the world and above 'She's a loser, your honor'. Though the fact that she only does this for maybe four people in the world makes you stupidly proud to be one of them.
-
'You're not getting out of the Whitman bit that easily.'
'Worth a shot.' She reached past you for the body wash. 'Though I bet it's someone properly pretentious. Ezra Pound? T.S. Eliot?' You had your hand out, she spooled some body wash on your palm.
You rubbed your palms together, getting suds out. 'Baudelaire, actually.' You softly rubbed her body down.
She paused, surprised. 'Gross.'
'What?'
'Pervert.' She smiled, something tender in it. 'I see where you get your naughtiness from.'
You smiled back.
The water ran.
'See?' she said finally. 'Spontaneity. We just had a poetry moment in the shower.'
You pressed a kiss to her damp forehead. 'Maybe ease up on the transcendentalists before coffee.'
'No promises.' She tucked herself against you for a moment. 'I'm feeling very one-with-the-universe today.'
'God help us all.'
'Just you.' She pulled back, eyes bright. 'Think you can handle it?'
'I'll manage somehow.'
'Good.' She headed for the bedroom, calling back, 'Because I'm thinking we skip the predetermined brunch place and just walk until we find somewhere that looks good.'
'Living dangerously.'
'Try to keep up. This new spontaneous me waits for no one.'
'Except for the fifteen minutes you'll spend choosing which spontaneous outfit to wear?'
A towel flew back through the doorway, her laughter following it. 'Twenty minutes, minimum. Some habits die hard.'
You helped her dry her hair, something youâd underestimated, she had a mischievous smile the moment you accepted her offer of drying her hair. The best part was, indeed, the scent of her hair, the softness of it, gliding along your hand.
âDidnât expect it to take this long?ââ
âNot at all, it's your hair. Any time is too short.â
âYou got vocal chords shaped like a heart donât you?â
'Only for you.' You wrapped your arms around her waist, and kissed her neck once.
âIâm feeling beguiled.â
âUnsafe?â
âVery. Whereâs the exit?â
âOh. Iâm not that easy.â You tightened the embrace.
She giggled, her hand wrapping endearingly around yours.
You had maybe 3 outfits; they were also scattered - the rest of the time, you and Gawon had to look for it. You finished just a little later than Gawon.
Outside, Sooin was sitting in her jeep with the windows down. She spotted you approaching with a grin.
'Morning,' she said, climbing out. 'I brought coffee but I drank it all. Sorry.'
'You okay?' Gawon asked.
'Yeah. Just couldn't sit still at home.' She leaned against the car. 'My neighbor started vacuuming at six AM so I figured that was the universe telling me to leave.'
You all climbed in. The car smelled faintly of coffee and the blue lavender sachets she kept tucked everywhere.
'Where to?' Sooin asked, pulling out carefully.
'I hadn't really decided,' Gawon said.
Sooin glanced over. 'Really?'
'Really.'
'Huh.' A small smile crossed her face. 'Okay. Let's just drive then.'
She took a left at the light, no particular destination in mind. The morning traffic was light, mostly delivery trucks and early joggers.
'The exhibition's at two-fifteen,' Sooin said after a while. 'They want a 'spontaneous review' .'
'You're good at those,' Gawon said.
'Sometimes.' She adjusted the mirror unnecessarily. 'It's three months in Hokkaido if I get it.'
'That's far.'
'Yeah.' Another adjustment. 'Really far.'
They drove past a small cafĂŠ with outdoor seating. Sooin slowed.
'This works?'
'Perfect,' Gawon said.
Sooin parked, taking two tries to get it straight. Inside, they found a corner table. The place was nearly empty, just them and an older man reading a newspaper.
'Tea?' Gawon suggested when the server came by.
'Coffee,' Sooin said. 'I know, I know. But tea makes me sleepy.'
'Since when?'
'Since always. I just pretend to like it.' She smiled at the server. 'Biggest mug you have, please.'
They ordered food too - eggs, toast, nothing fancy. Sooin picked at hers.
'Not hungry?'
'I ate earlier. Made eggs at home too. Forgot I did until just now.' She laughed quietly. 'I'm a little scattered today.'
'You'll be fine,' you said.
'Maybe.' She took a sip of coffee. 'My agent actually said 'think less.''
'Helpful.'
'Right?' She managed a real smile then. 'I should just channel Gawon. Very contained.'
'I'm not that contained,' Gawon protested.
'You made me use a coaster at your apartment during a party.'
'That's just common sense.'
'It was a red solo cup.'
They fell into silence. Sooin's hands had stopped fidgeting, wrapped around her mug.
'Thanks for this,' she said eventually. 'I know I'm being weird.'
'You're not,' Gawon said.
-
'Right.' She put the phone down. 'Tell me something normal. Anything.'
'Like what?'
'I don't know. What you had for breakfast yesterday. Your grocery list. Literally anything that isn't about auditions.'
Gawon thought about it. 'I bought new socks.'
'Thrilling.'
'They have cats on them.'
'Of course they do.' But Sooin was almost smiling. 'Are they at least subtle cats?'
'They're wearing top hats.'
Sooin smiled.
'What? They were on sale.'
You laughed. 'Show her the ones from last week.'
'No.'
'They have tacos on them,' you told Sooin.
'Tacos?'
'Tiny dancing kitty tacos.'
Sooin stared at Gawon. 'You're secretly twelve years old.'
'They're comfortable.'
'That's not a defense.'
'It's the only defense I need.' Gawon took a sip of coffee. 'Besides, you have that shirt with the - '
'We don't talk about the shirt.'
'The one with the sequined - '
'I said we don't talk about it.'
They went back and forth like that, and slowly Sooin's death grip on her mug loosened. Her shoulders came down from around her ears.
'Fifty minutes,' she said eventually. 'Think I have time to throw up?'
'You're not going to throw up.'
'I might.'
'You won't.' Gawon pushed the water closer. 'Drink this.'
'Bossy.'
'Yeah.'
Sooin drank the water. 'Remember when I auditioned for that commercial? The one with the cat?'
'You were allergic.'
'So allergic. My face swelled up like a balloon.' She touched her cheek. 'At least there's no cats this time.'
'Small mercies.'
'Huge mercies. Can you imagine? Sorry, I can't quietly unravel, I'm too busy sneezing.''
'You'd still get it,' you said.
'With my balloon face?'
'Even then.'
'Liar.' But she looked calmer. 'Thirty minutes. Oh god.'
'You want to head over?'
'No. Yes. I don't know.' She stood up, sat back down. 'What if I forget my own name?'
'Then make one up,' Gawon suggested.
'Hi, I'm⌠Gertrude.'
'Aim higher.'
'Beatrice?'
'Now you're just listing old lady names.'
'Those are sophisticated names.' Sooin stood again, for real this time. 'Okay. Let's go before I really do throw up.'
You paid and left. Outside, Sooin stopped walking.
'I don't want to go to Hokkaido,' she said quietly.
'Then don't,' Gawon said.
'I need the job.'
'You need a job. Not necessarily this job.'
'It's a good opportunity.'
'Is it though?'
Sooin looked at her. 'You're supposed to be supportive.'
'I am being supportive. I'm supporting your right to not freeze your ass off for three months.'
'That'sâŚ' Sooin laughed, surprised. 'Actually helpful?'
'I have moments.'
They walked to the car. Sooin got in, started it, didn't drive.
'What if I bomb?'
'Then you bomb,' you said.
'That's it?'
'Then you bomb and we get lunch and tomorrow's another day.'
'You make it sound simple.'
'It is simple. But cruel.'
Sooin considered this. 'I hate when you're profound.'
'Sorry.'
'Don't be.' She finally put the car in drive. 'Twenty minutes. Let's do this.'
At the theater, she parked crooked and didn't fix it.
'How do I look?'
'Like yourself,' Gawon said.
'Is that good enough?'
'It's perfect.'
Sooin nodded, grabbed her bag. 'If I die in there - '
'We'll delete your browser history.'
'I was going to say tell my mother I love her, but that's better. Thanks.'
She hugged them both quickly, then walked inside before she could change her mind.
'She's going to nail it,' you said.
'Yeah.' Gawon was already looking for somewhere to wait. 'Coffee?'
'Obviously.'
You found a place across the street. Ordered. Sat by the window where you both could see the theater doors.
'She really doesn't want to go to Hokkaido,' Gawon said.
'No.'
'Think she'll take it anyway?'
'Probably.'
'Yeah.' Gawon turned her cup three times. Caught herself. 'Damn it.'
'I didn't say anything.'
'You were thinking it.'
'Little bit.'
They sat quietly, waiting. Normal morning. Normal coffee. Two people waiting for their friend to maybe change her life or maybe not.
Either way, they'd be there.
-
Sooin's exhibition was successful. She sold 3 pieces. 3 more than she expected. She was more than ecstatic. And she was hired.
'I got it!' Sooin shouted from the hallway, fumbling with her keys. 'Holy shit, I actually got it!'
'We heard you the first ten times,' Gawon said, taking one of the champagne bottles before Sooin dropped it.
'I'm going to keep saying it.' She finally got the door open. 'Maybe forever.'
Her apartment was a mess. Empty wine bottles from last night's panic session, canvases against every wall, a dead plant she kept meaning to throw out.
'Sit,' Gawon ordered. 'You're vibrating.'
'I can't sit. I might explode.' But Sooin collapsed on the couch anyway. 'They want me for three months. In Hokkaido. Starting next month.'
'That's fast,' you said.
'That's terrifying.' She opened the champagne badly. Foam everywhere. 'Shit. Sorry.'
'Leave it.' Gawon was already in the kitchen getting glasses. Real ones, not the plastic cups Sooin usually used.
'Fancy,' Sooin said.
'You got a real job. We're using real glasses.'
'It's just three months.'
'It's a whole thing. With a budget. A whole mentor.'
'Who thinks I have 'luminous loneliness.' Sooin made air quotes. 'Whatever that means.'
'It means you're hired,' you said.
'Yeah.' She drank half her glass at once. 'Weird though, right? Like he saw through me or something.'
Gawon and you exchanged a look.
'What?' Sooin caught it. 'What was that?'
'Nothing.'
'Bullshit. You did the thing.'
'What thing?'
'The worried look thing.' She poured more champagne. 'I'm fine. I'm great. I'm employed.'
'We know,' Gawon said carefully.
'Do you? Because you're looking at me like I'm about to cry or something.' Sooin laughed. Too loud. 'I'm not going to cry. I got the part.'
She kept drinking. Fast. By the third glass she was quieter.
'Three months is long,' she said eventually.
'We'll visit.'
'Yeah.' She picked at the couch cushion. 'It's just. I'll be alone. Again.'
'You won't be alone. You'll have the cast, the crew - '
'That's not what I mean.' Sooin looked at them. 'When's the last time someone actually wanted me around? Like, really wanted me?'
The question hung there.
'See?' She smiled, but it was all wrong. 'Can't remember either.'
'Sooin - '
'It's fine. I'm used to it.' She stood up too fast, swayed. 'I'm going to bed.'
'Let us help - '
'I'm good.' She wasn't. 'Really. Thanks for⌠this. For being here.'
They watched her weave toward her bedroom. The door closed with a soft click.
-
The apartment had gone quiet except for Sooin's gentle breathing from the bedroom. You'd both helped her there an hour ago, after the toasts became mumbled and her eyes started closing mid-sentence.
Just you and Gawon on the couch, the Yamazaki bottle between you on the coffee table. She poured two fingers each, no ice.
'She was happy,' Gawon said, tucking her legs under herself. 'Really happy.'
'The exhibition was a success.' You add.
'That's not what I mean.' Gawon took a sip, considering her words. 'Did you see her face when that couple was discussing her work? How she lit up?'
'She loves when people get it.'
'No.' Gawon shook her head. 'She loves being seen. There's a difference.'
You waited. Gawon had that look-the one that meant she was working up to something.
'She told me she hasn't been with anyone.â She said, quiet.
'She's focused on her work.'
'She's scared.' Gawon stared into her glass. 'I mean, I know the feeling now, you know? Sheâs never been with anybody - I never thought that concept would be so important to me now.â
She looked at you then. 'When's the last time someone chose her? Really chose her?'
Japanâs humid night tucked the both of you in this comfortable atmosphere.
'I've been thinking,' Gawon continued. 'About what she needs.'
'Gawon - '
'Just listen.' She shifted closer. 'You're good. Actually good. Not just nice, not just charming. Good.'
'I'm not - '
'You are.' Her hand found yours. 'And she trusts you. We both do.'
'What are you asking?'
'I'm askingâŚ' She took another sip for courage. 'I'm asking you to make her feel wanted. Even just once. So she knows what it's like.'
'You want me to-'
'I want her to stop believing she's meant to be alone.' Gawon was fierce but quiet. 'I want her to know how it feels when someone sees all of her and wants her anyway.'
'This is whiskey talking.'
She set her glass down. 'This is me talking. Me loving her enough to be unconventional.'
'And you'd be okay with it?'
'I'd be there.' The words came out sure. 'If she wanted. If it helped her feel safe.'
You studied her face - earnest, determined, maybe a little scared herself.
'This could complicate everything,' you said carefully.
'Everything's already complicated.' She laughed softly. 'We're sitting in her apartment, drinking her celebration whiskey, trying to figure out how to fix her loneliness. We passed complicated a while ago.'
'She might say no.'
'She might.' Gawon picked up her glass again. 'But she might not. And maybe that's what she needs - to choose. To be chosen.'
From the bedroom, Sooin murmured something in her sleep. You both turned toward the sound, then back to each other.
'Think about it,' Gawon said. 'That's all I'm asking.'
'I don't need to think about it.' You touched her face gently. 'If you're sure. If she wants it. If it would help herâŚ'
'You'd do that?'
'I'd do anything for the people I love.' First time said aloud. 'Both of you.'
Gawon kissed you then, soft and grateful.
She curled into your side, and you sat there with the weight of what you were contemplating. The whiskey bottle refracted and diffracted, amber and warm, like the feeling in your chest.
'When?' you asked eventually.
'When she's sober. When she can really choose.' Gawon was sleepy now. 'When it's not about the exhibition⌠but just⌠us. Being here for her.'
'Okay.'
'Okay?'
'Okay.'
She smiled against your shoulder. In the bedroom, Sooin slept on, unaware of the promises being made in her name, for her heart, in the whiskey-soft glow of her own living room.
-
Morning came with the quiet sounds of movement in the kitchen.
'There's coffee,' Sooin said without turning when you and Gawon came in. She was at the stove, hair messy, wearing the same paint-stained shirt she always wore for cooking.
'Smells good,' Gawon said, settling at the table.
'It's just eggs.' Sooin was carefully neutral. 'Nothing fancy.'
'Sleep okay?' you asked.
'Fine.' She still hadn't turned around. 'You?'
'The couch was comfortable.'
'Good. That's⌠good.'
Gawon nudged your foot under the table. The eggs were starting to stick to the pan.
'Here.' You stood, moving to help. 'Let me - '
'I've got it.' But she let you take the spatula, stepping back.
Standing this close, you could see she'd been crying again. Not recently, but enough to leave traces.
'Sooin.'
'Don't.' Her voice was very quiet. 'Please.'
'Okay.'
You focused on the eggs, salvaging what you could. She stayed nearby, not quite touching but not moving away either.
'I said things last night,' she said finally.
'You were honest.'
'I was drunk.'
'Both can be true.'
She laughed softly, without humor. 'I guess.'
The morning light caught her face when she finally looked up. She looked tired but also somehow lighter, like crying had washed something away.
'I meant it though,' she said. 'About being tired of being alone.'
''I know.'
'It's notâŚ' She glanced at Gawon, then back. 'I'm not trying to make this weird.'
'You're not.'
'I am though.' She moved closer, just barely. 'Aren't I?'
You set the spatula down. 'Look at me.'
She did, reluctantly.
'You're not making anything weird. You're being you.'
'That's the problem.'
'No,' you said gently. 'It's not.'
Something shifted in her face. 'You mean that.'
'Yeah.'
'Even thoughâŚ' She gestured vaguely between you and Gawon.
'Even though.'
She was very still now, watching you. You reached up slowly, giving her time to step back. She didn't. Your hand touched her face.
'Oh,' she said softly.
The kiss was brief, gentle. Her fingers wrapped around your wrist, not pulling away, just holding.
When you stepped back, she stayed still for a moment, eyes closed.
âŚ
She opened her eyes, looked at you, then at Gawon who had moved closer.
'I don't understand any of this.'
'That's okay,' Gawon said quietly.
'Is it?'
'Yeah.'
Sooin took a breath. Looked at the stove. 'I burned the eggs.'
'I noticed.'
'They're completely destroyed.'
'We'll make more,' you said.
'Right.' She turned off the burner, moved the pan to the sink. 'Right. Okay.'
She ran water over the burned mess, watched it steam.
'Thank you,' she said to the sink. 'Both of you.'
'For what?'
'I don't know.' A small laugh. 'Everything. Nothing. The eggs.'
'Anytime,' Gawon said.
The morning sun filled the kitchen. Three people standing in the aftermath of something shifting. The burned smell was already fading.
Sooin dried her hands, turned around. 'So. Breakfast?'
'Breakfast,' you agreed.
And that was enough for now.
-
The taxi smelled like fake pine. Gawon sat by the window, arms crossed.
'You okay?'
'Fine.'
'You're doing that thing with your jaw.'
'What thing?' Her jaw unclenched slightly.
'That thing.' You poked her shoulder. 'When you're annoyed but pretending not to be.'
'I'm not annoyed.'
'Okay.'
'I'm not.'
'I said okay.'
She turned to glare at you. 'Her lipstick is on your collar.'
You glanced down. There was indeed a faint pink smudge. 'Huh.'
'Huh? That's all?'
'What do you want me to say?'
'I don't know. Something.' She turned back to the window. 'Never mind.'
'You're jealous.'
'I'm not jealous.'
'You're a little jealous.'
'Shut up.'
You slid closer. She leaned away.
'Gawon.'
'What?'
'You literally suggested it.'
'I know what I suggested. Doesn't mean I have to like it.'
'Fair.'
The driver changed lanes. Gawon stayed pressed against the door.
'She uses vanilla lip gloss,' you said conversationally. 'Very sweet.'
'I don't care.'
'Like candy almost.'
'Stop talking.'
'You use that mint one. Much better.'
She finally looked at you. 'You're enjoying this.'
'A little bit.'
'Ass.'
'Yeah.' You touched her knee. 'Come here.'
'No.'
'Come on.'
'I said no.' But she wasn't pulling away from your hand.
'One kiss.'
'You've had enough kisses today.'
'One more.'
She rolled her eyes but turned toward you. 'You're ridiculous.'
'Yeah.'
'And your collar is still pink.'
'I'll wash it.'
'Good.' She leaned in then, quick and firm. When she pulled back, she was almost smiling. 'There. Happy?'
'Getting there.'
'Don't push it.' But she let you take her hand. 'How was it anyway?'
'How was what?'
'You know what.'
'It was nice.'
'Nice.' She considered this. 'That's it?'
'She was nervous. Kept apologizing.'
'Sounds like herâŚ'
âŚ
'I also liked it.' She added, in the silence.
Wha-
She swiftly kissed you this time, harder, hands on your jaw. The taxi driver coughed pointedly.
'We're almost there,' Gawon said against your mouth.
'We could circle the block.'
'That's very Pretty Woman of you.'
'I've never seen it.'
'Liar.' But she was smiling now, the tension finally breaking. 'You probably cried at the end.'
'Every time.'
'I knew it.' She settled against your side properly. 'You're such a soft touch.'
'Only for you.'
'And Sooin, apparently.' She smiled, now with an air of mischief.
'That's different.'
'I know.' Quieter now. 'I know it is. Still.'
'Still,' you agreed.
The hotel appeared ahead. Gawon straightened, already reaching for her bag.
'For the record,' she said as the taxi slowed, 'I prefer when your mouth tastes like mint. Or nothing. Or me. Or you.'
'Noted.'
The taxi stopped. The doorman was already moving toward them. The moment broke, but the understanding remained - she'd given something, watched something, felt something she hadn't expected. And maybe that was okay.
-
The hotel already felt like home. Two days. Just two days and the air carried Gawon's scent.
And the traces of the entire day, and the day before that.
You carried a box of cookies that Sooin made into the villa. She said it was just a parting gift just for today, but it felt more like she was trying to forget what happened. It was the opposite for you, you couldn't forget; and the fresh smell of the cookies, reminded you exactly of Sooin's plump lips, pressed desperately against yours, as the scent of the cookie caramelized in the oven.
You left the box of cookies on the table.
The door to the bathroom clicked when you sat on the bed. And Gawon emerged. Sheer stockings covering her feet to the midway of her thighs. A stunningly webbed black lingerie piece that covered just the right amount to leave you anguish, while still narrowly hiding everything.
Her bra was the same too, the underswell, the upswell, the way her breasts coupled just over the edge of the bra, just so, god almighty.
-
'Sit on that chair.' She was firm.
You moved, still admiring her, but now sat facing her.
She approached, slowly at first, between you and the bed, and she sat.
'I suppose this is what I planned as payback.'
'Because of yesterday.'
'Among other things. You kissing Sooin, keeping me sore this entire week.'
Her stocking-clad foot traced a deliberate path along your denim-clad thigh - a slow exploration. âGawon.â The name escaped you, raw and pleading.
âHush.â
Your fingers dug into the chairâs worn knit fabric. Her toes pressed, finally, against the aching bulge straining your jeans - then lifted away. âGawon.â
âKeep saying my name.â A command.
Both feet settled heavily on your thighs now, warm soles pressing heat through denim. Your knuckles whitened. âWhat do you want? Tell me.â
âHelp me. With your feet.â
âGood boy.â
One foot slid upward, the nylon catching on your zipper. A single toe hooked under the button. Relief was a breath away. âTake it out.â
âWhat?â
âTake it out.â Her foot pressed down, the arch molding perfectly to your trapped erection. Toe pads dragged firmly along the swollen length. âLook at you. Hard just from my feet. Naughty boy.â
âYouâre the reason.â Your voice was gravel. Her sole pressed harder, feeling the rigid heat through the layers of cotton and denim.š
Her hands clenched the bedsheets, knuckles taut.
Then - emptiness. Her feet withdrew.
You looked up, lost. âWh - '
Her fingers hooked the waistband of her skirt. A slow, slide down endless legs. The fabric caught briefly on her toes before pooling on the floor. Art unveiled.
You released the chair, transfixed. The air hummed with worn nerves. She planted her feet firmly on the mattress edge, wiggling her toes - a deliberate provocation. Her gaze pinned you, savoring your desperation.
Slowly, deliberately, she ripped the seam of her left stocking. White-painted toes emerged. âThese were expensive,â she murmured. âI expect⌠reciprocation.â The contrast - torn black nylon against creamy skin - was devastating.
âTake it out.â This time, it was final. You shoved your boxers down, freeing yourself.
Gawonâs eyes widened. Her left foot landed on your bare thigh, sole searing against skin. Then the right. Both feet bracketed your shaft, radiating unbearable heat just millimeters away.
âLet me show you what these can do.â A soft, dangerous smile.
Her feet closed around you. Her warm textured soles around your shaft, bare toes wiggling, brushing. Pressure. Friction. Gawon grinned, your cock trapped between her arches, twitching, helpless, pooling with precum.
She asked you to move closer, âWait - closer. I can - â
You dragged the chair forward immediately, wood scraping floor. She slid toward the edge. Your hands locked around her thin calves, feeling the flex of muscle beneath nylon.
âThat⌠works.â Her breath hitched. One hand slid down her stomach, fingers pressing into soft skin below her navel. Lower. Beneath the lace edge of her panties. A sigh escaped her as her fingers moved slow, shadowing across her lace panties, hints of knuckles, fingers, the soft squelch. Her hand emerged glistening.
âGod. Youâre so wet.â You barely tear out.
âLike you wouldnât believe.â She held up her slick-coated hand. âWant it? Be good. Take it.' She wrapped that wetness around your cock. Tight. She spat into her other palm. Both hands worked you now, while her feet maintained their tight grip at the base of your cock, barely moving, but destroying your nerves nonetheless.
Then she moved. Her hand held crown of your cock as her soles pressed heavily on either side. Her hand worked the precum down, her feet worked all of it: saliva, precum, her slick.
You twitched. Back arching. Your grip on her calves was too tight at some point, to which she moaned a soft rebellion: you stopped immediately.
You dug your toes into the carpet, your biceps pulsed, you lost oxygen after every filthy pass of her feet along your length.
And yet,
Her feet never stopped - a slow, torturous undulation against your shaft. The textured nylon dragged and pulled every moan from you, every hunchback position to prevent spilling on her textured soles rubbing against the slit of your cock.
Then just as you half-twitched to completion.
She stopped.
'You want my hand?'
'Yes.' You barely say.
You were prey to Gawon: 'Louder, beg for it.'
'Please. Your hand. My cock. Please.'
Her hand gripped your cock like it was a squeeze toy, a welcome sensation when you're passing in and out of consciousness.
Every downward stroke of her hands synced with her soles pressed hard around your cock.
'Look at you,' she breathed. 'Twitching like a rabbit in a snare.'
A strangled sound escaped you. Her thumbs circled your swollen head, smearing her wetness mixed with yours. Pre-come slicked the path. The schlick-schlick of her pumping hands synced with the shush-shush of nylon soles gliding.
Then she changed rhythm.
Her feet stilled, clamped tight just below the head. Her hands accelerated, twisting on the upstroke, thumb digging into the frenulum.
'Gawon - !'
'Not yet.' Her command was amber and honey and gunpowder pressed to your very nerves. 'You hold it. Hold it for me. Be a good boy.'
Sweat beaded your temples. Your hips jerked, seeking deeper pressure, but her feet held firm, denying release. Muscles trembled - thighs, abdomen, the cords in your neck standing rigid. The need was a live wire sparking behind your eyes.
'You taste the air?'Â She murmured, inexplicably.
You did. Salt. Her arousal. The tang of overworked nerves.
'Thatâs you unmaking. Thatâs what I do. Now, come here. sit here.' She patted on the part of bed between her thighs.
You stood up immediately, sitting between her thighs, her arms now entangled around your waist.
'I have a request.' She pressed a kiss to your jaw.
'Mm.' You reply. Running on fumes.
'I want you to⌠are you listening?' She says, now soft.
In a flash, her legs wrapped around your waist, her hand wrapped around your cock. Her heels just hovered by the sides of your shaft.
Then her heels dug in.
You let out a groan. In pleasure.
'I want to watch you have sex with Sooin.'
You twitched. You almost came. You groaned too. She's trying to fucking kill you. Her heels moved just so, the muscle of your shaft shifting in turn, her soles now pressed on either side of your shaft.
'Gawon - '
'Fuck Sooin for me. I won't force you. I want you to. I liked it⌠I liked it when you kissed her.'
'Gawon - ' You breathe. You were about to break. You were twitching. One more move. That's all she needed to break you.
'So?' Waiting for an answer.
Her left foot shifted. Just the big toe, dragging slowly, agonizingly, from root to tip along the pulsing vein underneath your cock. A whimper tore loose. Her hands tightened, twisting harder.
'Ok! I will. Fuck. I'll fuck Sooin. In front of you... I'll cum inside her.'
You groaned, her soles continued its movement, along the length of your cock, the whole of her soles, milking you.
She moaned. She came before you did. She moaned right on the rim of your ear, vibrating her perfect orgasm.
Holy Fucking Shit.
You detonated next.
It was a structural collapse. Spine arching, heels digging into carpet, vision whiting out as heat roared up your spine. Her hands milked every spasm, her feet a warm, grounding weight as you emptied yourself over her fingers, stripes of white landing hot on your stomach, her fingers, the carpet below the bed.
You panted, Gawon held you firm.
Gawon watched, chest rising and falling rapidly, her own arousal glistening visibly now at the lace edge of her panties. She lifted her slick, glazed hand, studying the mess with detached fascination.
'Holy fuck.' She said, spent.
You laughed.
She laughed in turn.
Her foot, still resting against your spent cock, gave one final, proprietary squeeze.
-
Tomorrow. Tomorrow was when everything was gonna happen.
You and Gawon shared a shower. Went along with the routine of days past.
With a commitment etched into eachother's hearts.
-
The day was neutral. Routine. You and gawon showered together. She scoffed when you held her waist with a half-hard cock against her back; all she could offer was, 'Tonight, you'll have all the time you need.' She didn't know how much that made you ache.
The hours ambled past. You and Gawon made rounds to cafes, pet shops, summer trees. Her honey hand was wrapped with yours the entire time, even when clammy: a soft proclamation that the both of you would be through thick and thin.
By evening, you walked nervously with Gawon to Sooin's place. She said everything was arranged. What did that mean?
The walk upstairs was even more nerve-wracking. It was until Gawon hugged you, right outside the door to Sooin's, that you calmed down. 'Sooin deserves the best. You deserve the best. I won't be jealous. I want Sooin to feel loved - more than just a kiss. I want you to understand, more than just sex, that I'll be forever yours.'
'It's a pity I can't throw you against this wall and make love. Hm?' You grin. She grins back. You kiss. You have no idea what you did to deserve Gawon.
The door softly cranked open and Sooin was stood there. Her hands raised perpendicular, waiting for you.
You walked towards her, then hugged her.
Sooin stood on her toes for a moment, readjusting her arms around your neck. She was secure, holding your head, looking at you; maybe she was trying to conceptualize something, something more foreign than just kissing.
Your hands were at her waist now, against her warm skin.
You were already half-hard. Half-dizzy. Crazed: Gawon's watching you, Sooin wants you. Focus, for once, focus.
Two beautiful women, one observing, one right in your arms - the one that isn't your girlfriend. You were confused.
Things were uncoiling. You aren't sure what it was.
'Kiss me. Again. More. As much as it takes.' Sooin whispered, right on your ear. Her moist breath tingling the side of your ear, your face.
Your breath caught. AWOL. You looked at Sooin once more. Her cheeks flush, her breaths heavy, her hair tangled so perfectly around your fingers.
You caught the side of her chin with one hand. Tilting her head just a little, just so, and you touched her lips. She was breathing fast, her heart was beating, you felt it on her lips.
You slid your tongue between her lips, selfishly. mmph she says, christ almighty. You traced her lips, her tongue.
Her arms tightened around your neck, and she took initiative: pushing her tongue deep into your mouth. You moved in response, in surprise. 'Gently' you whisper, she nods; now, licking softly, her tongue to yours, exploring you. Her hands were stretching the quarter-zip that Gawon bought for you.
You were catastrophically hard. You weren't privy to what Gawon was doing, what she was saying, most of all, what her reaction was. You were a deer under spotlight. Sooin coodinating perfectly to make sure you couldn't look at Gawon.
'Was that good?' She asked. Cheeks flush. Breathing heavily. Her hips were gently rocking against you. On your hardness.
'Yes. That⌠was perfect.' You whisper, just loud enough. Gawon surely heard it. Your cock jerked in excitement.
Without saying anything, you pulled her tight, entering her mouth once more, harder, without sympathy. She squealed something. You kissed her hard. Passionately. Far passionately than before, far more than the other times.
Your arm seized the small of her back. You helped her rock her body against your hardness. She was moaning in tandem with your pushes and pulls.
You looked down to see, to go past concept, to see what you were doing to Sooin. But before then, Sooin pulled your chin again, and kissed you hungrily.
Don't worry.
Just enjoy it.
'Christ almighty Sooin.' You balk, speech almost unintelligible. Desperately clinging to Sooin's body.
'Grind into me. Please.' She begged. That was it. That did it.
You nearly lifted her into the air as you ground yourself deep into her. Separated by cloth. Your cock against her pussy.
She moaned deep into your mouth. Her husky voice destroying a piece of you every time.
'I'm gonna come.'
'Keep going. Please. Keep going.'
You desperately move. Forgetting everything. Concepts forgotten. Just Sooin body perfectly sidled up on your brick-hard cock.
Then:
Gawon wrapped her arms around your shoulders. Forehead against your nape.
'I want in.'
Sooin retreated back. Cheeks red. Breathing heavily.
Gawonâs lips left a searing trail down your neck - half-graze, half-bite - as her fingers hooked the hem of your shirt. Fabric rasped upward, baring skin to the cool air and her hotter mouth. She mapped your shoulders, the tense cord of your triceps, then circled to face you, eyes locked on yours as her tongue flicked a nipple. The jolt went straight to your groin.
âI want to suck your cock.â
No preamble. No permission asked. Her hands were already at your waistband, deftly working the button, the zipper teeth parting like a sigh. Your fingers tangled in her hair, not guiding, just anchoring, as she sank to her knees.
Behind her, Sooin stood frozen. Back pressed to the doorframe, knuckles white where she gripped the wood. Her breath hitched - a soft, involuntary sound. Gawon heard it. Didnât turn. Just smiled against your hipbone, her breath humid through the thin cotton of your briefs.
âWatch,â Gawon murmured, not to you.
She peeled the briefs down. Your cock sprang free, flushed and straining and dripping with pre cum. Gawonâs gaze didnât leave Sooinâs face as she took you into her mouth.
Her cheeks hollowed out, a gentle sucking noise rang out as your knees almost buckled right then and there.
The soft whimpers of Gawon going deeper.
The slick noise of her tongue circling the head.
Sooin made a sound - a whimper trapped in her throat. Gawon hummed around you, the vibration ricocheting up your spine. Encouragement? Mockery? Impossible to tell.
âGawon - â you choked out.
She pulled off with a filthy pop. âPatience.â Her hand replaced her mouth, stroking slowly. Deliberate. Theatrical. âSheâs never seen this, has she? Never seen how pretty a man comes apart.â
Sooinâs eyes were wide, dark, fixed on Gawonâs hand moving on your shaft. A fevered flush crept up her neck.
Gawonâs free hand reached back, blind, and found Sooinâs wrist. âTouch him,â she ordered, voice thick around the command. âJust here.â She guided Sooinâs trembling fingers to your hip, to the tense muscle jumping beneath sweat-damp skin. âFeel how hard he is for us.â
Sooinâs touch was feather-light. Terrified. Electrifying. Her fingertips traced the V of your pelvis, then flinched back.
âLook at him,â Gawon insisted, taking you deep again, hollowing her cheeks. _âLook at what we do to him.â
Sooinâs breath stuttered. This time, when her hand returned, it didnât tremble. Her palm flattened against your stomach, feeling the clench and release of muscle as Gawon sucked harder, faster. Her thumb brushed the base of your cock where Gawonâs lips stretched tight.
Two hands now. Two women. One unbearable friction.
Gawon moaned around you - a sound of pure satisfaction - and Sooin echoed it, softer, wonderstruck. Her nails bit lightly into your hip as Gawon took you to the hilt, throat working, eyes watering but never closing, never looking away from Sooinâs rapt, overwhelmed face.
Gawonâs throat flexed - a tight, rippling swallow against the head of your cock. Her nose pressed into your base. You felt the ridge of your crown catch momentarily on the tense ring of muscle at the back of her mouth before she forced herself deeper, her throat opening in a practiced spasm. Tears welled at the corners of her eyes, tracking mascara-smudged paths down her flushed cheeks. She didnât blink. Didnât look away from you.
Her lips sealed impossibly tight around the root, the stretch burning. You felt the thump thump thump of her pulse through the soft flesh of her palate, pressed directly against your straining underside. Saliva overflowed, thick and slick, dripping down your shaft onto Sooinâs hand still splayed on your lower belly. The warm rivulet traced a path through the sweat-sheened skin.
Gawon held you there, buried to the hilt. Her breath came in short, desperate sniffs through flared nostrils, unable to inhale fully. Her jaw trembled with the effort. A low, guttural hum vibrated through her throat and into your cock - a physical buzz deep in your core.
Then, slowly, agonizingly, she retreated. Her throat released its grip with a wet, sucking pop. Your cock slid back through the tight tunnel of her mouth, every ridge, every vein catching exquisitely on her tongue, her palate, her teeth held carefully back. Her tongue flattened beneath you, a hot, broad pressure massaging the sensitive frenulum as she withdrew. Cool air hit the slick length for a fraction of a second before her lips, swollen and red, sealed back around the head.
Her tongue pressed hard under your cock, making you wince with pleasure, all the joints of your body gridlocked under blissful tyranny. Her lips pulsed around your shaft, the softness of the inside of her mouth, molded around your shaft, all velvety and fucking outrageous, dragging horribly along your length, the suction of her lips making a meek sound as it passed the crown of your cock.
Her hands never stopping working the base of your shaft and your balls. Switching rhythmically, squeezing lightly, fingers rolling your sac, just so, just so.
'Fuck. Gawon.'
'God. I love you. And this cock. And everything.' She breathed out, all flush and bothered, intermittently sending a hand down her panties, knuckles shadowing along her panties as she fucked herself on her fingers.
Gawon's saliva ran glistening along your shaft. Before it could pass down your legs, her lips surrounded your shaft again. Slicking Sooin's fingers where they still pressed against your hip. The sound was obscene: wet schlicks on the upstroke, guttural swallows of choked gasps when she surfaced, the constant drip onto skin.
Her hot gusts fanned your wet skin when she, occasionally, came up for air: short, sharp inhalations followed by low moans directed at you, directed at her fingers working on her pussy, before she plunged down again.
Sooinâs hand on your hip shifted. Her thumb found the taut tendon running from your hip bone towards your groin. She pressed into the rigid cord of muscle, her nail scraping lightly through the sweat and Gawonâs spit. Her other hand, the one Gawon had guided, lifted from your belly. You felt her hesitation in the air above your cock, then the tentative brush of a fingertip against the slick, spit-sheened head - just below where Gawonâs lips were sealed. A jolt shot through you.
Gawon felt it too. Her eyes, locked on Sooinâs, narrowed slightly. She increased the suction, hollowing her cheeks sharply, pulling Sooinâs focus back to her mouth, her control. She released you with another filthy pop, saliva stringing between her lower lip and your crown.
'See?' Gawon rasped, her voice wrecked. She didn't break eye contact with Sooin. Her tongue darted out, broad and pink, lapping at the pre-come beading at your tip, collecting it messily. 'See how he leaks for it?' She guided your cockhead back to her lips, her tongue swirling over the slit once more before taking you in, not deep this time, just the head, sucking hard and fast, her cheeks collapsing inward. 'All this⌠just from my mouth. Imagine.'
Gawon looked at you once again. This time, she stood up, wrapping her arms around your neck before kissing the side of your face, then pressing her tongue deep into your mouth.
Sooin stood there, wet-handed, even flusher, but she still just stood there: waiting, patiently.
'Sooin.'
That was all she had to say for Sooin to rush back towards you. But before she came, Gawon pushed you. You lost the abiltiy to maintain balance a long time ago, your knees were fucked, your brain was totally fucked. You were just fucked.
So you fell. Onto the bed.
'Calculated.' You breathe, masking the previous panic in your voice.
'Always.' Gawon says. And she leans on you, her knees on the bed. Hand on your wet cock.
Her lips surrounded your nipple, and a faint suction ran through your entire body.
Gawon's hand, the one taht was preoccupied with stroking you into madness, pulled for Sooin to come. And, again, she did.
Knees on the bed.
Palpably close to your cock, Sooin kneeled closer. And her lips pressed warm against your nipple.
Gawon motioned for Sooin, something unspoken, and you felt her hand wrap around your shaft.
Schlick.
Her moved. Her hands were smaller. Warmer. Tighter.
Schlick.
'Sit on him.' Gawon said. You darted up to look at them. Sooin was silent, eyes wide, her hand stopped moving.
'Are you sure?'
'Sit on him. Dear.'
The side of your chest where Gawon stayed was warm, she was there, looking at Sooin, she slid off your body, steadying herself. Her skin glanced off the sunlight, she was paler, a born deer surrounded by two wolves.
You were complicit in her ruin. You knew it now. Your cock grew harder the more you looked; soft skin, large bosom, thick thighs. You took a deep breath when Sooin straddled you, your lungs ballooned, the sides of her inner thighs pressed to your outer thighs. Her body was just inches off your rock-hard cock.
Gawon slid behind Sooin. Sooin didnât turn - her gaze stayed locked on you, lips swollen and bitten red. The snick of a bra clasp echoed in the quiet. The garment slid down Sooinâs arms and landed in your lap, warm from her skin.
'Ah.'
Their laughter tangled - light, nervous. Gawonâs hand darted out, snatching the bra away.
Sooinâs breasts were bare now, high and full, nipples flushed pink. Your gut clenched, a visceral pull to bury yourself inside her - now.
She crossed her arms over her chest. 'Youâre grinning,' Gawon observed, mischievious.
'I know.'
'Approved?'Â Gawonâs tone was all edges.
'Jesus. Are you blind?'Â You shifted closer, easing Sooin back against your chest. She was gentle, her back was arched. She was so so soft. Her bare shoulders trembled.
'Mm!'Â Sooin gasped as your thigh brushed her inner leg.
'Okay?'Â you murmured.
She nodded, cheeks blazing with red.
A hand closed around your cock - Gawonâs. Her thumb pressed the leaking tip. 'Hard as marble. Is this for her?'
You stayed silent. The answer pulsed in her grip.
Sooin arched when Gawonâs other hand slid between her legs, palming her through damp cotton. 'Itâs really happening. Oh fuck, it's really happening.' Sooin breathed, pinned between you.
Gawon hooked a finger in the waistband of Sooinâs panties. Look. She peeled the fabric aside.
Wet heat glistened. No barriers left.
-
You traced Sooinâs inner thigh, feeling the jump of her muscle. 'Tell me.' 'I want' Sooinâs voice frayed. 'Just⌠touch me first.'
Gawonâs hand left your cock, guiding yours to Sooinâs center. 'Here.' Your fingers met slick heat. Sooin whimpered.
'Like this?' You circled her clit, her viscous slick covering the pads of your fingers. Holy fuck. Sooinâs head fell back against Gawon. 'Yes. God - yes.'
Gawon bit Sooinâs shoulder, leaving a red bloom. 'He needs to feel you. Ready?' Sooin nodded, frantic.
You lined up, the head of your cock nudging her entrance. Her hips jerked. 'Wait,' Gawon ordered. She spat into her palm, slicked your length. 'Now.'
You pushed in - slow. Sooin cried out, back bowing. 'Breathe,' Gawon commanded, pinning Sooinâs hips down. 'Take it.'
Sooinâs walls clenched, scalding tight. 'More - ' You thrust deeper. She sobbed, nails scraping your forearm.
Gawon watched. She moved to the side of the bed, sitting next to you. Hand on her mound - fingers moving. She breathed soft. She was looking at you, how you moved into Sooin. You met her eyes, once or twice. Making sure she saw, how your hips crushed against Sooin. Gawon's grin didn't leave her, her lust-gleamed eyes didn't change. Her fingers were still inside of her. In the background, as you stared at Gawon, Sooin let out pitiful moans that was more inspiration than anything else.
You moved deeper. Found her shoulder to bite on. Her pussy was wet, hot, her slick passed through your entire shaft, collecting down your balls.
'I'm fucking losing it. I'm fucking losing it.' She repeated, in your ear. You went faster.
Her hips moved up, your hands pulling as support, and she crashed back down. Her ass against your thighs. Smack.
She let out a pitiful moan again.
She moved back to find a different position. Her breasts bounced up and down. Your cock ground against her g-spot. She came.
She came just like that.
'Ahhh. Oh fuck oh fuck oh fuck' She buried her head in your shoulder. Trembled. Lost herself. Regained herself. Grinded her hips just a little. Letting your cock move and scrape against her sensitive spots.
'How does it feel? His cock grinding you. All inside you. Stretching you out.' Gawon's hand held Sooin's sweaty nape.
It wasn't question: an observation.
Her pink pussy was swollen around you. Morphed around you. Her stomach moved as her diaphragm collected oxygen. It felt unreal, her pussy tightening as she breathed in and out. It reminded you of a grounding detail, as the pause ensued: fucking Sooin as your girlfriend watched.
This time, Gawon's hand wrapped behind you, and she kissed you; first, on your ear, a tender, wet kiss that traced the outline of your ear; then, as you tried to kiss her back, her finger hovered over your chin, and pushed it back: 'I'm a spectator.' That was all she said.
Sooin was still breathing softly, her forehead still pressed against your left shoulder. The sides of her body still moved in accordance of her breaths, her humid breath hovered on your collarbone - worn out, high on bliss.
'Slap me.'
What?
'What?' You say, this time, with your mouth. Doubly processing.
'I want you to slap me.'
You look at Gawon, only to find her smiling.
The only clueless person in the room - you. [1]
-
[1] The exact moment your brain, which was previously operating on a simple "This is nice / This is weird / This is hot" flowchart, blue-screens entirely. It's the dawning, ice-water horror of realizing that the other two players in this⌠scenario⌠have apparently been co-authoring a very specific Google Doc of Kinks & Agendas in a shared folder you were never invited to.
-
Sooin blew air at you. You looked, she was smiling, still rawing from the pleasure, and then, just then, kissed you.
You locked your arms behind her back, and pressed your cock so deep that she groaned into your mouth. Her tongue moved in frantic movements as you pressed deeper and deeper into her; her folds pressed wet against the base of your shaft. You let the kiss go - to Sooin's dismay: mouth open and dizzy and flushed - to press your face against the space between her breasts; on either side, there was hills of perfect upswell dotted with pinkish nipples. You held her firmer as you plowed into her. She was still, victim to her pleasure, moaning, groaning, releasing her slick - some of it dripping on the carpet.
You saw Gawon move behind Sooin in your periphery. A sharp crack echoed - Gawonâs palm landing hard on Sooinâs ass. Sooin yelped, her fingers digging into the back of your neck. You held her hips down against your lap, your cock buried deep inside her, and delivered your own stinging slap to her other cheek. The flesh jiggled, already flushed.
'Thought you could just take and take, little thief?' Gawon hissed, naked, pressing her front against Sooinâs sweaty back. Her lips brushed Sooinâs ear. 'Squeeze her tight. Make her gush. Let her ruin her own fucking carpet.'
No more talk needed.
You stood, lifting Sooinâs legs, hooking them over your shoulders. She groaned, back arching, as the angle drove you impossibly deeper, the head of your cock grinding against her cervix. A raw, punched-out whimper escaped her - she was still trembling from her last climax.
You pulled her ass back, just enough for the tip to catch, then slammed home. A wet thwack of flesh meeting flesh. Sooin shrieked. You grunted, the force driving your hips forward.
Glancing down, you saw Gawon on her knees between Sooinâs splayed legs. One hand was frantically rubbing her own swollen clit. The other hand rose and fell in weak, almost spastic slaps against Sooinâs reddened ass. 'Close⌠oh fuck, close,' Gawon gasped, her voice thin and strained.
Sooinâs ass slammed against your hips again, slicker now. The wet sound was obscene - a mix of her slick, her cum, your pre-cum, smearing across skin and dripping onto the carpet below. The air reeked of sex and sweat.
Gawonâs head snapped back. A ragged cry tore from her throat as she came, her hips bucking against her own hand, her weak slaps stopping entirely as her body seized. 'Yes! Fuck! YES!'
The sight, the sound, the feel of Sooinâs cunt clamping down like a slick fist - it pushed you over the edge. 'Gonna - !' you managed, pulling out just as the first hot pulse surged up your shaft.
'Fuck! Fuck!' Sooin sobbed, her body convulsing. Her swollen pussy clenched around nothing, and a gush of clear fluid splattered onto the carpet between her thighs, soaking into the fibers. 'Oh god! Oh god!' she gasped between desperate cries, her hips jerking as she squirted again.
You gave her no respite. Still hard, still throbbing, you shoved back into her sopping, pink entrance. This time, you crushed your mouth to hers, swallowing her gasps as you fucked her through her own aftershocks. Deep, punishing strokes. The final sprint.
You buried yourself to the root, grinding hard. 'Fuck!' The growl ripped from your chest as you locked Sooin against you, fingers digging into her hips hard enough to bruise. You emptied yourself deep inside her - one thick, hot rope after another, painting her inner walls, each pulse kissing her cervix. Your balls tightened, drawn up, as Gawon ducked her head, hollowing her cheeks to suck them greedily, swallowing what spilled.
'You⌠filled me,' Sooin breathed against your lips, dazed.
You kissed her, deep.
You thrust twice more, shallow and possessive, grinding your spend deeper into her core. Then you pulled out with a wet suck.
Thick globs of your cum spurted onto the soaked carpet, joining her slick puddle. One stray pulse landed on Gawonâs waiting tongue. She closed her mouth, swallowing.
You lowered Sooin onto the bed. She collapsed, chest heaving, looking up at you with glazed, awestruck eyes.
Your gaze locked onto Gawon. She was still panting, her own climax lingering. On her knees, she shuffled forward until her face was level with your softening cock, still glistening with a mix of your spend and Sooinâs slick. She let the heavy head rest on her tongue for a heartbeat, tasting it, before closing her lips around your shaft. She hollowed her cheeks, sucking firmly, cleaning every inch with slow swipes of her tongue.
To be continued.
a\n: And here we are! Hopefully this fic isn't too bad, I forgot how to write, and then maybe rememberedâŚ. idk. So for a few updates, I think releases will be monthly. Commissions are a bit of an issue - since i live somewhere where receiving payments or even operating a paypal account is strictly forbidden - so I decided to close the Ko-Fi account. When push comes to shove, and I mean when I'm really seeking money, I may find a work around. For now, here are my free works: monthly, utterly imperfect, barely edited, yet here. right here.

Canât stop thinking about readerâs family and friends not believing them when they say that theyâre dating rumi, bc 1. Rumi is a worldwide famous popstar and 2. Rumi is a literal goddess in her own right and reader is just going insane trying to prove that Rumi is actually their girlfriend.
The moment I saw this ask come through I really did just have to run over here bc as someone with a large family, white siblings and two fuckass extended family ahh friend groups this felt like an obligation. Ofc different groups may respond differently, but đ
Telling your friends would be a Challenge aka they'll probably laugh your ass out the door. How the fuck did YOU??? Bag THAT fine piece of ass HELLO????? Like okay bae and I'm actually Tom Holland's side piece it's time to wake back up to reality đŤś. You need like proof in pictures, receipts in messages and preferrably her right in front of them. It feels like you're going through an immigration checkpoint. When they actually see that Oh you're Not actually bullshitting and this is actually #holyfcknairball? "THEM?????? REALLY" but tbh at the end of the day they'd support it easily. If you have K-Pop enthusiasts in your group they'll probably freak out and faint but they'll be back up later asking for autographs from her and the other members. My friends would threaten me if I ever fumbled personally
Rumi finds it funny asf but also she's kinda like "my bad", half laughing at you and half sincere bc wow you fr have to prove you're not just being DELUSIONAL. It's okay she'll kiss you in front of them if they want proof, she'll take Any excuse to kiss you :3c
Family would be another thing. You wouldn't even need to supply proof though, she'd wanna make a good first impression on her own. She'd bring like food baskets and gifts and everything, getting to know your family and all that. She'll basically do all the work for you and next thing you know she's basically already invited to the gc and whatever sort of family gatherings you have đ¤ˇââď¸ atp wedding her would just become a formality LMFAO but if you fumble this they'll kill you. Joke. Maybe. Who knows. But she's like the most likeable person out there, parents fucking love her and yours probably won't be an exceptionâcan't help but stare at how easily she can just. Do it like "is it PR training or is this just like natural for you" "đĽ°"
My mum would love her and she's very Traditional so đ. My siblings would personally also laugh me out the door too 𫶠hate them (love them)

Thats what i love about the greek gods though; their duality. Aphrodite on that level is expecially cool. As a kid i thought you could be pretty or you could be strong like pick one. But nah. Aphrodite is all pretty and bubblegum and girly. But shell fuck you up totally.
Or like persephones the same way. Shes goddess of spring all flowery and stuff. But you also need to watch out for her more than you need to watch out for hades
Its like so cool as a person who sees themselves as a problem/like struggles with anger or whatever too
Like i aim to kinda have that duality to me as well.
highkey i love it when gods have such stark epithets ie Aphrodite PhilomeidÄs vs Aphrodite Areia (smile loving vs warlike) apollo paeon vs Apollo Loimios (healer vs plague bringer) Dionysus Maenoles vs Dionysus Patroeus (raging vs parental) SUCH A DIFFERENCE WHAT??

Borrowed Clothes
When you were kids, Fem!Caleb and you would always share clothes. If you liked a top of hers, she would insist that you should wear it and when you come home from a sleepover youâd find her wearing your hoodies. It just made sense that you shared your things. But as you get into high school, your styles stop aligning and you stop stealing her clothes. No matter how much she tries to offer you clothes or buying pieces she knows youâll like, you donât budge.
There is no greater tragedy in her high school years than you refusing to wear her clothes like you used to. Doesnât let you know how badly she wants you too, instead drops subtle hints. Like if you say youâre cold, she already be peeling off her hoodie trying to offer it to you or mixing some of her laundry into yours in hopes youâll mistake it for one of yours.
Though that didnât stop her from borrowing your clothes. It didnât matter if it was a pair of socks or a shirt. Hell, sheâd try to borrow your bra and panties if you let her, doesnât matter if they fit or not she will try. If it has your scent, sheâs stealing it and wearing it around. Yes, even those cringy anime tees from middle school you only wear to bed.
âJiejie, take it off!! You canât wear that to school!â
âRelax, pipsqueak. All my other clothes were dirty.â Such a dirty little liar.
What grinds your gears is how amazing she looks in whatever she steals of yours. It doesnât matter if you are smaller than her, your tiny shirts make the perfect baby tees on her, or bigger than her, your oversized shirts are perfectly baggy on her. If you didnât live with her, youâd also agree with most everyone at school that she is a goddess. Instead of admitting how attractive she looks, you yell and tell her to stop touching your shit. Gran thinks sheâs too old to deal with you and Calebâs shenanigans so she tries her best to ignore it.
Before she leaves for the DAA, she swipes one of your shirts. An old, well worn shirt that she can put over her pillow case so you are always close. Every time she comes home, she makes sure to put it back and swiping another, needing to smell you when she goes to sleep as creepy as it sounds.
When Caleb decides to visit you in Linkon, she expected to find you in your pajamas already. What she doesnât expect is for you to be using an old tee shirt of hers as your pajamas. And it seems to cause her brain to short circuit, stuck in your doorway holding bags of snacks for an impromptu sleepover with her eyes as wide as the moon. You have to push her inside to snap her out of it, not wanting your neighbors to see you pants-less like this.
She assumed that most of her stuff had burned up in the explosion, but she forgot about the clothes she had at the DAA. And you wear it when sheâs not around, as a sort of comfort. You will send her to an early grave (for real this time), she fears.
Now, every time Caleb sleeps over, you find a new shirt laid on your bed with a cute note wishing you sweet dreams.
It only gets worse when you start dating. All of her clothes are now yours. Thereâs no escaping like you did in high school and college, you will wear her shirts for her. Wants you to model all her clothes so she can shower you in praise and take photos like youâre a model.

what i dont understand is why we dont have more hera centric fics in pjo. to me, she is such an interesting character that can be taken down so many different routes. all we see of her is a jealous and vicious side which, fair, but is also just one facet of her abilities and personality.
hera actually does quite a lot for the demigods and the olympian pantheon as a whole. and she is a lot more forgiving towards the demigods than one would assume based off her fanon depictions. i think many forget to keep in mind that she is the goddess of family, even if she herself might not be happy about how her family is/looks/acts, which definitely influences her actions in the series. she is quite instrumental in both wars, and to me, believing that the 2nd gigantomachy started bc of her is just zeus propaganda (though his pjo characterization is FAR from his title as god of justice, so i am not a fan of him in the series (traditional zeus is much more multifaceted to me)).
she fucks with annabeth a lot, but one: sheâs a god, and two: the beef is mutual, so i truly believe that hera just fucks with her for the love of the game, and as sheâs a goddess might not understand when sheâs taking it too far for a mortal. and this doesnât disregard the crazy shit sheâs done in pjo and the myths! but if weâre making poseidon, apollo, and hermes benevolent baddies we should see her for the good sheâs done, not just the bad.
it would be awesome to see fics where hera explores her domains, which are really important ones!! she is the patron of women, thereâs SO much to be explored with that. and her marriage with zeus means that she has quite literally experienced/seen most of the struggles of women tbh LMFAO. we could get fics where she works consistently with artemis as their domains overlap, maybe seeing her and thalia form a relationship? could be after jasonâs death, bc i honestly think that she thought of jason as her own demigod son, and grieved for him.
sheâs the goddess of family!! HUGEEEEE. i mean, thereâs so many options with that. maybe her power was weakened during the war with kronos bc thatâs her father? maybe each solstice she gets stronger because her family is all together. maybe her and jason getting closer, and by extension her and the demigods in general get closer. sheâs not their godly parent! she can intervene a lot more than their parents can. it would be cool to see fics where the demigods realize sheâs the goddess of family and can be their patron goddess in a way. (though i do love percy ascension fics where he becomes their patron)
one of my favorite fics is i used to float, now i just fall down by pupscotch, where juno was the one cursed to be mortal and not apollo, but instead of doing whatever quest jupiter gives her, she just adopts jason and makes him her trial and just tries to become the best private school mom ever. she works for a womenâs organization, genuinely cares about jason, and goes through some self reflection that is so wonderful to see. its jason centric, but i feel like a lot of my opinions of how we should treat my girl are shown here!!
i just honestly love her,,, and i totally understand why her fanon characterizations are the way that they are, but i do think we should give her some more credit in how she literally saved the world.
#percy jackson#percy jackon and the olympians#pjo hoo toa#hera#i think its misogynistic to see her as the root of all evil and then go and find other gods who have done Worse as totally fine#but thatâs just me#she is so misunderstood to me!!!#love my girl#headcannons#jason grace

Day 3: Arranged Marriage
have this oneshot (800+ words lol) for the vision i have for the jercy political marriage au i've been thinking abt since last yr. idk when i'll start working on it actually, but i hope you enjoy this.
@jercy-events
He looks like Luke.
Thatâs the first thing that Percy thinks of upon seeing the Roman praetor.
With those cerulean eyesâcalculating, almost coldâalong with his cropped blond hair and the scar on his lips, one would think heâs related to Luke Castellan.
But somehow, the similarities stop with the way they look. Percy doesnât remember feeling uneasy with Lukeâs presence upon first meeting him. If anything, all Luke radiated back then was trustworthiness. Sure, there was a mischievous glint in his eyes, but that could be attributed to his godly parentage.
Yet, this man before himâthereâs something imposing, unsettling, with him. Even as a bearer of the Achilles Curse, Percy shudders at the thought that if this Roman so decides, he can definitely rip Percy into shreds.Â
Percy steels himself. He canât afford to be intimidated now. Heâll do anythingâabsolutely anythingâto prevent another war from happening.
Negotiating peace with the Romans is the key to ensure Camp Half-Bloodâs safety.
â
âA wedding?â Percy springs up from where heâs sitting at the rec-room along with Chiron, Annabeth, Nico, Clarisse, Jake, Will, Drew, the Stolls, and the Roman praetors, Jason Grace and Reyna.. (she refused to say her full name).
âWhat? Youâre old enough, yes?â Right. And thereâs also their favorite goddess, Hera, who is âleadingâ (whatever that means) this meeting. âToo old actually. Back in the dayââ
âWaitwaitwait! A wedding?â
âYes, Perseus.â The goddess seems bored while she flicks her hand. âA wedding. Marriage. Union between two camps. Between the two most powerful demigods of this generation. You as the Hero of Olympus, and Jason as my Champion.â
A sacrifice, is what Percy hears.
He looks over the other manâJasonâacross the table tennis table. His face doesnât betray any of his emotions, so very far from his sister, Thalia Grace, who always makes it a point to let everyone know when sheâs irritated.
The son of Poseidon wants to argue that Nico di Angelo can be more powerful than him, but the son of Hades has just been settling at camp, not even a resident there, mostly doing errands for his father for the past five years.
But Percy is not the kind to point fingers and pass the burden to anyone, especially to Nico; he took the Great Prophecy years ago for him after all.
So Percy Jackson does what he thinks is right:
He walks away.
â
âWhat have you got to lose?â Percy spats when, during dinner, the son of Jupiter thought it would be a good idea to bring him food in Cabin 3. He doesnât know what runs on Jasonâs mind and somehow, that annoys Percy all the more. âYouâve trained for this all your life. You grew up at camp, for fuckâs sake! But Iâve got a life, Jason Grace!â
Percy really doesnât. He never dated again after Annabeth; he doesnât know what to do with his degree; he feels like a foreigner in his momâs apartment now that sheâs got a ânormalâ family.
But no one has to know that.
âYouâre right.â Jasonâs voice is calmâtoo calm, like everything before a storm. âMaybe Iâve got nothing to lose. But my camp needs me and Iâm not the kind of leader to lead them to war. Good night, Percy.â
â
Percy is having anything, but a good night.
Of course, he canât sleep. No matter how tired he is, no matter how drained he feels. He knows he said too much, reacted on impulse. Again.
Jason doesnât deserve Percy lashing out like that. No one deserves something like thatâsomeone rubbing in their faces the things that life hasnât allowed them to have. For all Percy knows, Jason has wanted to have a life, too.
Percy might not know exactly how life has been at Camp Jupiter, but by the way Jason Grace and his co-praetor carry themselvesâthat silent but powerful strength underneath those composed and observant gazes. That can only be borne out of rigid training.
The respect they have for the godsâtheir own parents who abandoned them to fend for themselvesâis like their second nature. The dedication they have to keep the lives of future demigods.
Ugh, Percy feels bad for being such an asshole.
â
âThank you for your hospitality, Chiron.â Reyna says as she and Jason bids goodbye to the centaur. âPlease let us know if Percy considers Junoâs idea.â
âFor now, all we can do is to keep this a secret from our people,â Jason adds.
âI understand,â Chiron agrees. âItâs safer like that.â
As Reyna is mounting her pegasus and Jason summoning his storm-spirit, Percy comes running with a duffel bag in hand.
âPerseus, where are you going?â Chiron inquires.
âIâm coming with them,â the son Poseidon says matter-of-factly. âIf you want me to consider this, I need to know more about Camp Jupiter and⌠Jason.â
Percy counts it a win to see Jasonâs amused smile. So he knows how to smile, too.
âIâll inform Lady Hera,â the centaur sighs, seemingly to resign to his fate of dealing with another Percy Jackson moment. He hasnât even finished speaking when Percy calls for Blackjack.
#is this anything lol#i had another idea actually for this prompt but somehow it decided to be a long fic so there's that xc#jercy week 2025#jercy#jason grace#percy jackson

Yor worrying that her disappearing because of her job would mean she betrayed the Forgers vs Yor realizing that the risk is worth protecting them.
Grey colours, the Forgers as she first met them having their backs at her with empty, disappointed faces, vs bright, warm colours, the Forgers as she now knows them facing her directly and smiling at her.
She starts the story feeling like an outcast, fearing that no-one, not even her brother, will accept her as she is. That people will turn their back on her, and her life will continue being colourless and lonely.
Then her life fills with colour, with people who will face her head-on and accept her. She develops into confidence that the Forgers care for her and is reminded that even if she ever has to leave because of her job, the knowledge that she protects innocent people...
and that this work of hers will be acknowledged...
... is enough to give her the strength to carry on.
#Yor Forger#Spy x Family#sxf meta#there is also a meta there about how she fears Yuri will be too heartbroken by such a revelation#bc she raised him and he idolized her and she fears to even consider the possibility of him finding out#Loid and Anya are on a different scale#not because they âlove her moreâ or whatever#it's impossible to make that comparison#but because they see her flaws and don't idolize her#but they accept her and support and encourage her#she feels on an equal standing with them#I mean... not perfectly. not yet. but it's closer than with Yuri#I mean protecting him was her first and always motivation#but she also wants to protect him from the truth#while she feels that if the Forgers find out... it will be okay#she won't be judged#and I think that means a lot to her#that she has a place where she can fall and fail and be treated like a person instead of a goddess (by Yuri) or a failure (by society)#wow okay I'm back to writing tag meta I should go to sleep

Dante had got the hint that she wouldnât exactly be overly trusting of his twin brother, especially considering his past deeds. But that was between himself and Vergil, the way HE saw it, she had NO reason for butting into their affair. Even if she did, what chance did she stand against a man who could turn sword slashes into dimension destroying vortexes of destruction??...Before Dante could speak up, Vergil noticed her hand in her pocket...the same place she was keeping Asteroth...He narrowed his eyes, pressing his thumb bellow the Tsuba of his sword.
"THAT...is between me and my brother...Whatever you believe to accuse me of is no BUSINESS of yours..." "Okay guys, lets just chill for a moment yeah?...besides, I already told you that my bro had mellowed out since then. I could tell you the story later when we are out of--" As soon as the twins saw the flames go out, followed by a greater force of darkness and the voice that followed after...Vergil spun around, standing tall as his eyes dart around...listening to the voice! Dante simply rolled his eyes before he casually strode around, resting both his hands against his pockets as he looked at the monsters that manifested...Dante of course saw the half man, half lion half snake monster and just...chuckled! walking ever-so-closer to the beast before casually knocking the back of his knuckle onto his chest as if in a taunting manor.
"Soooo! This big bad Goddess of yours dosen't wanna get her own hands dirty so she sent YOU guys instead? Yesh! She must have her own priorities if she decided to throw the entire chess-board onto the table." Dante looked around, noticing that...there weren't any Demons around this time??...strange, this tower is usually brimming with Infernal life forms...where were the Bloodgoiels? the Hell soldiers? not to mention the Spider Demons that usually roam the web rooms??...
"Speaking of which! any of your other pals gonna join us some time soon? Not sure if your new to this whole game of "back-N-forth" but YOUR not exactly our usual company. Not a single Demon in sight! That's a first, I can't think of a single Devil that dosen't wanna peace of THIS pepperoni~!" Dante reached behind his back where the Devil Sword Dante was...all before he DREW the sword out! holding it in his hand as the blade gave off a hellish magma-like glow from inside the sealed up sword blade. Being a Son of Sparda and a professional Demon Hunter who had been fighting Demonic threats his whole life, fighting monsters like these should be second nature to him. Vergil looked around, a word not escaping his lips...His thumb still pressing the underside of Yamato's guard...Vergil had always been constantly prepared for a fight, weather they were safe or not...it was how he always gained an advantage on his foes to begin with...These monsters...there wasnât a single Demonic entity amongst them...most unusual...
@devil-hunter66
River's wings felt heavy as the half-blood soar over Tartarus. She followed the river Acheron until she reached it. The crack in the ground where the water had been draining.
The half-blood just wanted a normal summer vacation at camp half-blood. Of course, that wasn't going to happen. The underworld at some point had been thrown into chaos, creatures from Tartarus finding a way to flee and raise hell upon the rest of hades. Now it was up to her to figure out the issue.
"Alright. Father said this should be the way to hell." The half-blood check to make sure she had everything one last time. Rations? Check. Nectar? Check. Tools to maintain her prosthetic if it gets damage? Check. Weapon? Check. River took a deep breath and dived bomb down into the crack to hell. The quest prophecy ringing in her head.
She wasn't sure how far she was falling, or for how long. But eventually the air change. She opened her eyes to find herself in the demon world. Hell. "Okay..." She landed on the ground. "Now, how the hell do I find who I need to?" River said to herself.
With no better answer, she began walking deeper into hell. Keeping her scythe in it's cube form. But a hand around it just in case. She wasn't sure how long she had been walking, but it was at least felt like a few hours, until she finally found something else down here.

I HAVE A ANGST IDEA FOR A HADES GAME READER!
SPOILERS AHEAD!!!!
Did you see how Demeter made all life on earth incredibly difficult for mortals as punishment for having "stolen her daughter"? Well, based on the fact that in myths people literally DYING OF STARVATION (and apparently in the game, of cold) this idea came to me.
Imagine that the reader is a normal mortal, nothing particularly remarkable, EXCEPT that she is a farmer with the rest of her family, who just before the eternal winter came, they worshiped Demeter so they could have good crops and so on.
but then, without warning, winter arrives.
At first it's not so bad, because they can ration certain things and get by with some groceries, but as the months go by and the winter continues to get worse, so does the situation in the reader's house.
The surrounding villages begin to have pests, have problems with resources, not having to eat, etc. and the first deaths begin thanks to this, which quickly spread throughout the community where the reader lives.
The first to fall from the family are the most vulnerable, the grandparents and children of the reader's younger siblings, to whom they perform the appropriate funeral rituals along with all the people who had already died due to the winter.
Everyone's life is turned upside down trying to find ways to survive without having a coast to fish and with now few animals, and the cold gets worse and worse...
The community soon begins to decay and reader participates in the funeral rituals out of respect and to not think about the horrible situation, becoming more educated in the chnotic gods.
They are all desperate to survive, but the snow makes it almost impossible to leave the city where they live, so they are stuck.
It doesn't take long until the reader's parents also succumb, either from illness, from the cold, or from starvation from giving all the food to their surviving child.
and it's not even the worst.
reader is now sick too. So the remaining people of the town cannot allow her to make them all sick and kill them, so after giving the proper services to her family, they lock her in her own house.
but at this point the reader is so tired that she doesn't even mind being isolated. but she knows one thing. she can't allow herself to die like this. not because it is degrading or unfair, but because she knows that if she dies and no one performs an adequate ritual for her, she will not even see her family in the afterlife.
all the pain and suffering in vain.
So against all odds, the reader finds ways to survive on her own at home, constantly being in the limbo of life and death due to her horrible health.
and, thanks to this, the reader meets Thanatos.
I think I'll leave it vague if the relationship would be platonic or romantic, but they definitely got off to a bad start.
We already know that Thanatos finds his work exhausting, so the fact that the reader clung to life and did not want to leave even when she was in horrible conditions bothered him to no end.
and on the other hand, the reader OBVIOUSLY did not want to die and it was annoying that he wished her dead (even if it was technically his job?) and that led to several verbal fights. at first.
Thanatos appeared at the reader's house when she was especially weak, whether she could not move on her own, had respiratory attacks and/or was in special pain, etc. episodes that, although temporary, were still close encounters with death.
When Reader and Thanatos eventually get tired of insulting each other in these moments, at first they just wait to see whether Reader will survive this particular episode or not, in a rather tense silence.
It is not until the third or fourth time this happens that the reader begins a conversation with Thanatos in an "informal" way.
As one can imagine, at first Thanatos didn't even react or try to continue with said conversation, just do his job and leave, but as time went by he began to show more signs of listening to what the reader was saying. and eventually even give short answers.
He doesn't share much, but now the reader doesn't go crazy being alone.
I also imagine that on some occasions, when the reader can't move much, she DRAG to go get food/medicine, which bothers Thanatos because it seems 1- unhygienic and 2- stupid in a certain sense, mortals get sick because of it. not taking care of themselves, does she NOT want to get better?
It is from there that their relationship begins to improve, but the reader's health worsens every day.
It's the same as what happens with the other villagers that Thanatos collects, weakness, coughing up blood, pain in the rib cage, inability to eat, difficulty breathing--
but even so, the reader STILL wants to cling to this miserable existence, she can't even eat or stand anymore and STILL doesn't want to leave...
WHY? WHY SUFFER THIS WAY INSTEAD OF SIMPLY DIE?
and the reader's response is quite simple.
There is no one who can give her a burial, but her family did have one, without that she would simply wander through the Underworld and be alone AGAIN.
but at the same time, the reader no longer has the strength to continue holding on, the pain is UNBEARABLE and the little energy she has leaves her...
Thanatos is there, at least.
I like to think that the reader would agree to go with Thanatos VOLUNTARILY if he even lets her see her family one last time, thus dying peacefully.
And it would be especially ironic if by chance the reader ends up as a shadow in the house of Hadesđ
I think that in general, a deceased reader would be like a more responsible Hypnos, she is not going to bother the GOD OF DEATH so she does the minimum ÂŻâ \â _â (â ăâ )â _â /â ÂŻ
She is definitely happier now that she is no longer in pain, but she was quite traumatized by the experience :') although on the positive side, she is one of the few people who can play pranks on Thanaros with almost no consequences!
simply....mortal reader sheneigans.
Shares, reblogs and comments are very welcome!
Maybe i could use this Reader with another characters? Idk. I didn't know how to finish this but i like it!

oh yeah also this happened
"I don't think you seem to get it." Ctimene smiles from where she stands, leaning against a tree at the corner of the clearing, "I will take back my husband." She turns to meet Calypso's eyes, "And I will take back my brother."
Calypso pauses whatever she was about to do, one hand on Odysseus' shoulder. They both look extremely confused about where this woman dressed in armour and carrying a huge axe came from.
"My ship is docked down at the beach." Ctimene informs them, "I will be returning every man, and every one of my friends to Ithaca."
"And why would they go with you?" Calypso snarls, "I'm a goddess! I've got all they could want here, all they could need here!" She pauses, a cruel smile playing across her face, "Besides! We're all stuck in Paradise, no one can come nor go, my island stays unknown!"
"About that." Ctimene laughs, picking her axe up, "It's not unknown to the creatures of the ocean. Like our mutual friend, Epolenep! Or Polites and Telemachus." She shrugs.
Ctimene can vaguely see the way Odysseus' gaze darkens at Telemachus' name.
"Oh, You're adorable." Calypso coos, "Can't you see? You sealed your fate just to beat me! You trapped yourself and your crew when you arrived here in Paradise, blocked your one way home, and now you'll never get back!" She laughs slightly, though Ctimene can also see the way the goddess' confidence is draining the longer she stands there unwaveringly.
"You're going to let them go." Ctimene says calmly, "And you're gonna apologize and do everything you can to make up for the suffering you've put my brother through all these years."
"Or what?" Calypso challenges, "Last I checked, goddesses can't die. You can't kill me."
"Exactly." Ctimene steps forward, lifting her axe.
SIX HUNDRED STRIKE CALYPSOOO :D
ctimenes totally a pirate in this au. Also she has a giant axe â¨â¨
This is what happens when i think when i really should be asleep and now theyre fishâ¨
#epic the musical#epic polites#epic telemachus#my art#Ctimene#epic calypso#epic odysseus#epic the musical au#my writing#Can you tell i dislike calypso#im gonna let someone murder antinuos violently too#anyways#Sea creature au#fare thee well

Is it just me or does the way Hera is portrayed in the PJO/HOO series feel out of touch? By that I mean, while it plays into the idea of Hera's relationship with her husband's children and ideals of family, it seems like Rick just took that and ran with it without actually wanting to dive into those aspects and develop them more (ngl, his writing for his female characters, especially the goddesses, could use some work even if I do enjoy them). The reason Hera is the way she is with her husband's children is because she can't punish him [Zeus] directly due to him being more powerful (and the last time she turned against didn't he literally hang her from the sky)? And even while I'm not justifying her actions, there's a method to them, so why would she go after other random demigods like Percy and Annabeth? Or at least in a way that was written better than her falling into a trope (I enjoy this series with my heart, but the criticism about how the gods are written holds some value that shouldn't just be ignored either). Like, I don't know, it just feels like there was more that could've been done with her character instead of just immediately writing her off as the cruel, cold-hearted, evil stepmother (a trope that's overplayed, especially when not even bothering to give them any depth). I could write ideas, but then we'd be here all day.
#hera#pjo#hoo#pjo hera#greek mythology#greek myth#listen im getting back into greek myths and the classics so if anyone has any book/text recommendations pls share#rr crit#like especially being the goddess of family marriage and fertility her going after random children doesn't make sense (esp so hard like why#is she constantly harassing annabeth with cows?)#it also gets annoying in regard to percabeth bc the fandom tends to wrap them hating hera as their whole character trait and it's overplayed#it would make more sense for hera to probably be concerned or watching over percy bc maybe sally sent out a random prayer for help#hera caught wind (not necessarily realizing that percy is poseidon's son) and provides him & sally an added layer of protection before tlm#heck maybe she could even do the same for annabeth but to a lesser extent? maybe u could still keep them being at odds bc maybe#having grown up with thalia (who is zeus' kids & all that works) she's on edge and doesn't trust hera who'd be like âkay whateverâ#and was it hard to add any scenes of hera getting any understanding like the other gods were able too (dionysus)?#like im not saying that everything she's done has to be erased but is it that hard to add dimensions to it?#percy jackson#annabeth chase
