Glad to see you’re back up an’ runnin’, sir! It’s been lonely without you—kept having to make L.T. Rabosia try my ‘late-night can’t sleep’ treats.

..Jus’ tell me if you need help, yeah? I’m always a call away, sir.

@shadow-2-08

Awh... Thanks soldier....

... Let's get back to work. I see y'all have been slacking since I've been gone.

All this baby trapping is driving me crazy in the best way

idk who I'd want to baby trap more, Rudy, Graves, literally all of the 141, I'm just so obsessed with them! They'd all look pretty knocked up and stuffed ^-^

Cw: attempted baby trapping, breeding kink, 18+

Thinking about graves w/ a breeding kink, who will more often than not ask you to fuck him without a condom, promising he’s on birth control which he is but he can’t help that he forgets to take them some days, who will have the two of you go for multiple rounds till his cunt is dripping from cum and he’s using his fingers to push it back in just in case, who will stay skewed onto your cock for hours making sure you fuck him so rough and deep til he’s sure your cockhead is grazing his womb

It doesn’t take much for you to figure out what he’s trying to do, and although you can’t help but feel blood pooling to the lower half of your body at the sheer thought that graves is trying to have your baby, there’s no way in hell you’d be tied down to him in that way and luckily he hasn’t gotten pregnant yet.

However you still want do indulge him in his little fantasy so you buy him a squirting dildo with fake cum in it, spending hours upon hours using that thing on him, watching that way his body quakes, completely soaked in sweat, and cunt swollen and red.

“Please please I cant” he cries out, head trashing side to side as fat tears rolls down his cheek.

“This is what you wanted right? For me to make you a mommy? Be a good boy and take it”

Just imagine how whiny Graves is when he's finally inside of you, all his cocky and smug behavior gone as he ruts into you whining about how perfect you were made for taking his cock. I feel like he likes prone bone position just so he can rest all of his weight on top of you with his arms wrapped around your waist. You might be a mess under him but God he worse just being on top of you. Always to impatient to wait until you're both naked and just shoving clothes out of the way.

cw. nsfw, gn!reader, implied semi clothed sex, creampie, breeding kink, vague dry humping *not proofread, just pure horny

[honestly, losing it just a lil bit 🤏]

MINORS DNI!!

thank you for bringing back the graves obsession Sammy <33

anyways-

just being so ecstatically horny, that you're just pushing clothes aside and not even bothering to fully take them off

it's just a flurry of hands trying to push things out of the way

graves literally can not remove his lips from yours

hence why all of your clothes are still on, just haphazardly pushed aside

feeling him whimper against your lips once he finally buries himself inside you

he doesn't stop after he comes, he keeps his pace although stuttering and slowing a bit

he doesn't want the moment to end

so he keeps pulling moans and orgasms from you

doesn't even care that it's making a mess soft your bodies and the bed

he'll worry about it later

loves having you ride him, so he can watch how well you take him

totally not because he imagines you wearing a cowboy hat while riding him or anything definitely not-

thrusts up into you from below to meet your bounces halfway

loves listening to you cry out each time he bucks his hips up into your sweet spot

[temeyes]

Slap graves with a sticky hand pls

an oddly satisfying request, ngl LMAOOOO

Kortac members that would like a bimbo reader..?

Like I can't imagine anybody.

Especially Nikto.

Bimbo reader: look at my nails I made them with a cute colour... Hope you like them🤭💓

Nikto: 👁️👄👁️

Nikto: you're wasting my money for that..?

BFEKBHEHJFKBEHJFKBHBJFKEHJKB

Nikto would NOT do good with a Bimbo!Reader simply because he's too old for that shit and just doesn't get it. Would he fuck her? Yes. Would he date her? No.

Showing him your new plushies or nails would end up with him looking at you with his scary ass eyes like 🔵_🔵 and probably dissociate while staring at you, as he usually does either way fheefhjb

HMMM as for KorTac members that would do well with someone like Bimbo!Reader, I can see Graves, Valeria, and König.

I think Graves in general would 100% be the type to have a trophy wife, pretty little thing clinging to his arm in public, perfect body showing in the skimpy clothes you love to wear. It's natural for a man with money to spoil you, mainly buying lingerie and dresses that leave little to the imagination, though he also buys you things for your special interests and supports your hobbies.

Valeria, well... having a pretty thing like you is a far cry from all the war and violence in Las Almas, keeping you away from that place and kept a secret so the enemy cartels don't hunt you down. She's seen how ruthless they can be— she's a huge part of cartel violence as well, so she makes sure to keep you safe and guarded away from any of her enemies, never once being seen with you in public even when she secretly sometimes hopes she was able to give you a normal relationship.

König loves coming home to his pretty, bimbo girlfriend. You keep him in check and show him a more optimistic perspective than what someone as cocky and pessimistic as him is used to. Even when you're not the brightest tool in the shed, you're not afraid to knock him down a peg whenever he gets too cocky, and he absolutely adores to spoil you. He makes good money— what's the point in that if not buying lovely lingerie and dresses for his girl?

Your hc for how 141 would react to their team-crush being simped over, was incredible! No notes!

May I request something similar, only this time it’s for Ghost team??

Thank you!! Ofc, here you go 😘 So sorry this took so long. ENJOY!

Ghost Team: How They React to Their Team-Crush Being Simped Over

Note: Team Crush is female. Skipping Ghost, Soap, Gaz, and Price because you can read it in the og ask here. I hope I got the team members right lol

Alejandro Vargas:

Looks visibly angry. Furrowed brow, angry, clenched fists, clenched jaw

He has to take deep breaths to calm down.

Es sola una mujer. That's what he tries to tell himself but no, she's not just any woman.

He'd casually go up to her, call out her name loudly and greet her in front of everyone

And he'd ask her if she wants to hang out.

If she accepts, he'll put a hand in her shoulder and lead her away, smirking to himself.

Rodolfo 'Rudy' Parra:

He can get a little despairing at first, and might even consider backing off because some of her admirers look and seem way better than him.

But he'd watch her carefully to see how she reacts to their pickup lines, compliments, suave, moves. He'd see what sort of man she responds best to.

Only when he's absolutely certain about her, he'll build up the courage to make his move.

He'd be hiding a mess of nerves under his cool, calm exterior as he does.

Phillip Graves:

The first sight of it makes him click his tongue.

He'd definitely stare daggers at every single person who looked her way, and he'd do it for DAYS.

He'll intercept anyone who dares approach her, pretending he needs them for something-- just so he can divert their attention away from her.

And then he'd give them a very subtle threat when they're out of earshot.

And when everything is settled and he has shooed away all competition, he'll make his move.

KeeKee suddenly jumped on Alastor's shoulder from behind, holding a sinner's finger in her (non-existent) mouth.

“Hmmm?” Alastor hummed, turning to the stranger key…. Cat…. Thing.

“Oh, hello there Keekee!” he cooed, gently scritching her under her chin with his free hand, the other still holding onto the newly christened Phillip.

“What brings you here? Are you being me a treat or have you acquired the taste for sinner flesh?”

Read through some files and turns out my favourite Commander is a Marine...

What can I say?

I don't believe the file and thereby challenge you to a sparrin' match because ya baby ass lookin face can't be a Marine.

-sincerly your favorite Army Ranger

Hooah

Damn skippy I'm a Marine. Can't believe you're an Army Ranger. Some of you can be pricks. But then again, we can all be pricks eh?

You can spar me when I'm not actively dying from the flu. I've been next to the toilet for thirty minutes, waiting to vomit my breakfast up. You do not want to spar me right now.

But I will give you a joke to hold over. You know why Army guys say hoorah? You can't say oorah with a dick in your mouth.

[awesomeferret10]

Add this one to this list of times Dan talks about how something for one of them is actually something for Both Of Them™

“Bring me a gift”

“Phil can’t have chocolate”

The implication that every gift Dan gets needs to also be for Phil is insane I love this unhinged codependent ass bitch

[ask-philgraves]

Sure. Miss Rosa will give you a comprehensive list of the allergies.

@shadow-compay-secretary

I made waffels, anybody want sum?

Excluded is:

Task Force 141 (Roach is allowed)

Los Vaqueros

El Sin Nombre Cartel

General Shepherd

Konni Group

I’m BEGGING you more reader being the barracks bunny for the shadow conpany, but this time reader acting all tough and bratty towards them but deep down she just wants their attention after they’ve been ignoring her and focusing more on their missions:(

brat tamer!graves??? brat tamer!shadows???

cw. nsfw, gn!reader, brat!reader, brat tamer!graves & shadows, exhibitionism, voyeurism, mandhandling, oral, masterbation, slight choking, dacryphilia, spanking, fingering, edging, overstimulation *not proofread, just pure horny

[IM SO HAPPY YALL ARE LOVING THE SHADOW COMPANY X READER STUFF SJSKSBSJ] special tags for @waltzthegenderfluidpan @smmy-winchster

MINORS DNI!!

you're sitting by the shadows as they get their mission briefing except no one is trying to finger fuck you into oblivion

you know that their line of work isn't the easiest but they usually spend any and all moments of their free time with you

so when they're all getting ready for missions, they reduced you to an errand bunny

asking you to get things for them, drop things off for them to other people and only being rewarded with kisses to your cheek or forehead

going to bed cold and alone bc all of your fav shadows are out on field

once the mission is done and they're all back, you've resorted to minimal contact with all of them

doing the bare minimum, sneaking off after mumbling snarky remarks and giving them all the cold shoulder

it's only a few days into the cold shoulder treatment and all the shadows are getting more and more irritated as you deny their advances

a shadow finally speaks to their commander about it, who advised them to let him handle it

graves corners you when you're alone in the common room, his stare is stern yet gentle

there's no real need to ask what was wrong, graves knew what was wrong

without any thought, another snippy remark leaves your lips. you froze as soon as you processed the words that fell from your lips

as graves manhandled you over his lap, he all but ripped your shorts and underwear down your legs

not a second later and you feel a hard smack to your ass

it was just one after the other, leaving your cheeks red and sore with handprints

you were shaking in graves' lap, tears soaking into the couch cushions

feeling something cold drip onto your aching hole before fingers were pushed into you, immediately curling them up against your sweet spot

you tried to squirm away, the harsh and quick pace he set was overwhelming

graves simply held your hips down, continuing his onslaught on your slicked hole

a few shadows decided to stay and watch the show, watching how easily their commander gets reactions out of you

there's too many sensations you're feeling, it's all muddling together

just as quickly as the pleasure built, graves had pulled away

the fullness of his fingers leaving you empty and aching

the process repeats for god knows how long, the hours started blending together

bringing you to the edge of sweet sweet relief before all of it was snatched from under you

it left you squirming, needy and sore in your commander's lap, pleas falling on deaf ears

there's noises of shifting around you but you don't have the strength to look

before you know it, you're being placed on the now empty coffee table

your shirt is tugged off of you, hands immediately honing in on fondling and groping your chest

your pushed up on the table, your head hanging off the edge

you peer up at the shadow in front of you, eyeing the way their cock twitches mere inches away from your face

they tap their tip against your cheeks before slipping through your lips, their hand on your neck as they used your mouth

your hands were led to more cocks, their hands encasing yours and they fuck into your fist

graves' hand is still between your legs, rubbing against your sweet spot

with a quick whistle, graves moves, his position filled by another shadow

it took mere seconds for the emptiness to be filled again, filled with a thick and heavy cock

each thrust made you gag and sputter around the cock in your mouth

the ones fucking your hands, encasing yours with theirs, squeezing your hand around them tighter

they fucked into your fist even faster, nearing their release as they watched you choke around the cock in your mouth. their release coated your hands in a sticky white gloss

the shadow fucking your mouth, held your head up as he spilled in your mouth

swallowing without a second thought and sticking your tongue out like you always do

the shadow that's situated between your legs, uses the moment to his advantage

holding your thighs up and apart as he spears his cock into you, he twitched twice before painting your walls white

as you tried to process what just happened you were moved from the table to rest against someone's chest

you felt it before you saw it, two cocks pressed against your hole

sandwiched between two of the biggest shadows to take both of their cocks at the same time

one quickly slipped in, holding your hips down as the other shadow slipped in beside him

the stretch burned, making you shiver and arch your back

they moved in opposing rhythms, never leaving you empty

each moan was breathier and whinier than the last

you could barely keep your eyes focused long enough to see the shadows that still have yet to have their turn are hungrily stroking themselves

you're beyond fucked out by the end of the night, clinging onto whoever is in front of you

[nekrosmos]

Distractions???? I'm great at distractio- *insert something exploding in the background*

Ahem... I mean I uh... I'm adequate...

Any who, have random questions.

How do you think the men (yes I include Nikolai and Graves with the 141, honorary second dad and little bastard man who won't leave)

Would react to eating spicy ramen. Who would love it, who would hate it, who's crying, and who would look at the others like they're weak. (I imagine an unimpressed Laswell, and a spice intolerant Ghost. Graves and Soap are trying to out spice the other, and Price has a tight grip on a glass of water.)

Hi Lia !!!

Honestly, good question. I guess it depends on what kind of spicy ramen they're eating, like, regular stuff you can buy at the local store or Buldak, because Buldak are straight up inedible to me even though I have good spice tolerance.

I think Price would try to toughen it up but he's bright red, gulping water even though it doesn't do anything, and then spend the afternoon locked in a bathroom. Well done Captain.

Gaz would be like "you guys are weak, I got this" and sure, at first he's fine, but if we're talking Buldak level, I think he would be surprised and start sweating heavily but now he's got to save face so he's just eating it while trying to act normal. What do they put in this anyway, liquid fire ?

Soap would be overdramatic. Makes his noodles, puts the entire amount of spice, bets money to someone, probably Gaz or Nik, that he can eat all of it without problem, then ends up crying after the first noodle. His nose is running, his eyes are watery, but he comes back for another noodle and falls on the floor, pretending to be dead.

Ghost knows better and eats the noodles without the spices. Everyone watches him eat this like it's so easy and they grow a little more fearful of him that day. Ghost is chuckling on the inside.

Graves would probably make fun of the brits for being so spice intolerant and talk big game about the food back home and drop some very bad spanish of food he tried etc, only to start coughing like a mad man after eating one noodle.

Nikolai has been all around the world, he's probably more used to spicy food than most, so he does okay, makes fun of the boys for not being able to eat the ramens, probably bet some money against them and won enough to get him and Price a nice vacation.

Laswell knows better, pretended to not be hungry, and just filmed the entire thing. Leverage, she calls it.

[awkward-fink]

I need sleeping positions with graves, Kate and Keegan. I just love it too much. (And them!)

Hey!! I am so sorry it took me a while to get this done! But I had to do some research into Keegan and Laswell. And Graves as well. I hope my portrayal of them kind of fits and you have fun reading this. Thank you so much for your question, I loved writing this. I was so happy to get your ask in my inbox, I nearly happy danced^^ But on with the show, enjoy! (and if I made some mis-portrayal or some mistakes, please be kind and let me know so that i can rework it? Thanks!)

Sleeping Positions with them III

Keegan P.  Russ

Thank God this man isn‘t as heavy built as some of his colleagues

Yes, he is muscled and trained, and muscles weigh more than fat, but he is still less heavy than, say, Ghost

Because this man here is laying on top of you, halfway or fully, covering your body, but his head and his arms need to be able to move. His body slotting in between your legs, his chest on yours, his head at your neck breathing you in, his arms at both sides of your torse, free. This is how he sleeps most of the time.

I say, able to move, but Keegan doesn’t move. Once he found his spot, his position, he falls asleep quick and then he won’t move anymore

He is a sniper; he has learned to stay motionless for extended periods of time and sleep is NO exception for him!

You can twist and turn underneath him, can boop him, kiss him, grumble at him, he wont move, he wont even wake. Because you are safe beneath him and he can always touch you, you can’t leave

But if there is even the softest of sounds that isn’t normal in the apartment, a weird reflection of light glinting in the windows, this man is awake and aware faster than you know

He sleeps like the dead, a stone, unmoving and heavy. And sometimes he snores softly, it is becoming a lullaby to you by this time

You hadn’t been allowed to sleep with until he really trusted you, he couldn’t have rested before that

He wears old sweatpants, a few holes are alright, an old shirt and sometimes even socks to bed (you can get cold feet as a sniper, laying motionless for hours or days. Some things are hard to shake, even in bed.)

Kate Laswell

She is a strong woman, in control, steadfast and loyal. She is stern to those under her command, supporting her colleagues and friends. Her love language is acts of service.

Why am I telling you this?

Because she loves to be held in bed, loves to be the little spoon, to just shed all signs of leadership and bask in the presence of the person she loves

If she can’t be the little spoon, she will hook her pinky finger around yours, or grab onto your arm or shoulder

She murmurs sweet nothings in her sleep and burrows as close to you as she can, sometimes even partly underneath you.

Needs a weighted blanket if you are not there to fall asleep, if you are with her then she just needs your arm over her stomach.

If you lay on your back, she is slotted right against your side, her head on your shoulder

If you wake in the middle of the night to go pee, she will sleepily walk behind you, one hand holding onto your shirt as she follows you with closed eyes and grumblingly pleading for bed again

Turns on Koala-mode if she is sick, clinging to your back or front and will never let go until she is fit again…. Trying times…

Kate wears soft pajamas to bed, older model but chic, comfort over looks. It keeps her warm

Phillip Graves

Has the biggest bed of all of them, the most expensive beddings, the most luscious blankets

Listen, he is calling the shots here, he is *deserving* of only the best things, the most decadent of entertainment as well

So, let’s be clear, he is sleeping on his back, in the middle of the bed, legs spread out and one arm underneath his pillow (where a gun is hidden, you can never be too careful)

He gracefully lets you rest in between his legs, your stomach on his hips and your head on his chest. The hand not underneath his pillow is buried underneath your sleeping clothes, groping you even while he sleeps

He has a decadent soft blanket which you must share with him. Not because he doesn’t want you to have one, but because you are his as well and the only place for you is against him, on top of him, or with your legs tangled with his own

In contrast to his luxurious bed and bedding he wears an old, clean shirt to bed and form fitting boxer shorts

Also, he is making sure that you only wear the most comfortable and expensive clothing to bed, or nothing at all.

He will keep you warm, don’t worry Honey, just stay close to him, he is a furnace, and he will take good care of you

He loves it when your hands are on his hips while you both sleep, or when you hug his middle, your head on the spot his heart beats underneath

Because Graves, also just wants someone to love him, to hold him, to feel safe and comfortable with

So, it will take time until you join him in his bed, at least this bed. (He totally has another one for “sleeping activities” with flings, ONS and others, and not for resting.)

But when you reach this phase, you are golden. He invested in you, time and money and trust and emotions, he won’t let you go again without a fight.

[yawnderu]

imagine graves flirting with reader while gearing up for a mission and it pisses gaz off so gaz just pulls reader's mask down and kisses them on the lips but keeps their face hidden with his hand 🤭🤭

Do u remember the way Gaz simply stared at Graves when he tried to give him a hand shake and a fist bump? I feel like jealous Gaz would be just like that— quiet, keeping it professional, but not afraid to show an asshole like Graves that you're his.

It's not like Graves has seen your face either way, so you can expect him to turn your body around, pulling your mask down and giving you a long kiss, keeping eye contact with Graves as he does.
