#tw overdose implication

Just two best friends, trying to stay warm despite the horrors

"Let me keep her warm for just a moment longer.. please.."

[procksecutor]

"Scheiße..."

Klavier sighed as he laid back in the hospital bed, glancing at all the familiar wires and machines that he was hooked up to with disgust and anger. Great, just great. A day before a trial he has to prosecute too. Lady luck has never really been on his side, but he'll be damned if this continues.

How will he explain how he got here, was his first thought. Secondly, how will he make it up?

And thirdly, he's hoping for whatever entity is out there he doesn't hear about a residential treatment center.

[ziwi-miwi]

Thinking about the fact that Nathan drugged Chloe and tried to take pictures of her too

Like the whole thing with Rachel had to have already happened at that point. Was she gonna be the next victim? Why was he doing it in his room instead of at the bunker? Was he trying to hide it from Mr. Jefferson? What would he have done if he'd made the same mistake and overdosed her? It's a lot harder to cover up if it happens in the frickin dorm

TW...? Mentions of alcohol, implications of sex.

Part 2

"Come on, just go." Kaminari hisses under his breath, impatience and anxiety curling around in his stomach as he stands just outside the convenience store.

It's late at night, phones showing a bright 9:37 on the screen, as Bakugo, Sero, Kirishima, and Kaminari stand outside the store. It's the last day of school before the summer and they're all finally of the legal drinking age.

So what better way to celebrate the end of school than with alcohol?

"Why do I have to go in first?" Sero's frowning, harshly slapping at Kaminari's hand as he tries to push him forward.

"You're the tallest?"

"Kirishima's the buffest-"

"Shut the fuck up, idiots." Bakugo growls out, pushing past them and barging into the store. His aggressiveness has the door squeaking loudly before slamming back down into frame.

You look up from where you're seated at the register, a lazy glare on your face. "You're responsible for anything you break. Even doors," you drawl out with a frown as you take in the sulking teenager.

He glares at you, "Where's the drinks?"

"Rude." You scoff, dropping the magazine you were looking at and pointing to the far right. "Sodas and juices are over there." You murmur.

But that only seems to anger him further, "Not sodas. Drinks. Alcohol?"

The door opens again, and three more boys walk in. These ones are more shy and nowhere near as rude as the ash-blonde.

You sit up and raise a brow at them. "We don't sell alcohol to minors."

"Minors?" Sero scoffs indignantly.

"Hey- you look younger than us!" Kaminari pouts.

You roll your eyes. "I'm 18, okay? Now, if you guys want some drinks, I'm gonna need some ID." You say with a smirk, eyes focused on the brooding blonde that had barged in first.

He glares at you angrily as he stalks forward, slamming his student ID card down on the counter. You look down at it, showing little interest at first, until you catch sight of the letters on the top right of it.

"No way," you pick up the card, "You guys go to UA?" You ask, looking up at them. "Hero Course too?"

The shock and admiration in your gaze has their chests swelling with pride, with Bakugo leaning his elbows on the counter and smirking down at you. "Isn't it obvious?"

You raise a brow up at him and grin, dipping your hand into your back pocket to bring out your phone. "Oh yeah. You're the one they chained up some years ago, right?"

He scowls. "You mean the one who won."

You scoff, hopping off the stool and rounding the counter. "Yeah, yeah, whatever. Come on, I'll show you the drinks."

They grin, quickly following after you.

"This is your first time buying alcohol, right?" Ypu say as you stride into an aisle, dark bottles and cans lining the shelves.

"Is it obvious?" Kirishima asks shyly.

You shrug as you begin looking over bottle labels. "Yep. I'm sure you also don't know much alcohol, right? What drinks you want?"

Bakugo glares. "We're not fucking idiots."

"I didn't say you were," you roll your eyes at him. "But anyways. What's your budget, hm? Do you want something strong or something that tastes good?"

The boys crowd in on you, looking around the aisle as well. "Um...." Sero huns as he looks around. "Somethung that's strong. The strongest you got."

You look back at him. "You ever heard of overdosing? Kidney failure? Alcohol poisoni-"

"Where are you going with this?" Bakugo snaps at you.

"I'm starting to see why you were muzzled." You murmur as you pull out a bottle of Smirnoff from one of the shelves and hand it over to Sero. "This is a good option. It's strong and doesn't taste that bad compared to some others." You shrug.

"We'll take it!" Sero exclaims as he grabs hold of the bottle.

"Cool," you hum and look at him. "How many? Just the one?"

"Three." Kaminari says.

You turn to grab two more bottles from the shelves. "You know you shouldn't consume the three in one night," you say. "It's strong, and you guys haven't built any tolerance to alcohol so..." You hand the two bottles of Smirnoff to Kaminari and Kirishima, purposefully avoiding Bakugo, "Just be careful, is what I'm saying."

They hum, not very convincingly, but you can't force them to take your advice.

"Your total is 11,350 yen," you hum as you sit behind the cash register the last item they'd picked. You'd managed to convince them to get some sodas to chase the alcohol, and then they'd wanted to pick up a few snacks as well.

The boys were talkative, and the store was empty. They'd talked about how they were having a small end-of-school party in their dorm, and you smiled and laughed along with them, all while getting them to increase the number of items in their cart.

After all... your dad owned the convenience store, and you were looking at some new bikinis you wanted to get for the summer.

A little persuasion wouldn't hurt anyone.

They pooled together cash to pay and excitedly picked up the bags of what they'd just bought.

"It was nice meeting you, YN." Kirishima says as he grabs the last bag, flashing you a wide smile.

Kaminari joins in, "Yeah. We should hang out sometime." He offers.

You shrug with a small smile, "No problem. I'm mostly here... I'll be here a lot during the summer, so you can always drop by."

They begin leaving, and once the door closes, you lean on the register, picking up the magazine again.

You almost groan at the squeak of the door, already too tired to deal with another customer. You turn to glance at who it is, shocked to see Bakugo again.

"What are you doing back here?" You roll your eyes at his permanent scowl.

He grunts at you, continuing to walk to the counter wordlessly, hands stuffed in his pocket.

"Oi," you raise a brow, annoyed at how he was ignoring you. "You really need to work on manners."

He huffs as he stands right before you, opposite the register. He's quiet for a second before he glances to your left momentarily... then again, and a third time.

"What is it, mute?" You huff, arms folded as you follow his vision. "Oh-"

You chuckle, amused. "Big night ahead?"

"Just- shut up and pass the shit." He grunts in annoyance and embarrassment.

You laugh, "Calm down, okay? It's just some condoms." You roll your eyes and grab a few different ones, laying them out to him. "First time buying?" You raise a brow.

That's not entirely what you mean, though. And he picks up on it.

'Virgin?'

He sighs, "Obvious?"

You shrug a bit. "Kind of, yeah." You look down at the selection. "You know your size?" You ask, and he while pointing to the one on the left.

You hum, and scan it. He keeps looking at you as you bring a disposable bag to pack it in.

He struggles to muster up the courage, "Um..."

You look up at him as he stutters, and it has him struggling even harder. It's weird, and it pisses him off, how you're looking up at him when he's buying condoms.

"Any tips?" He mumbles softly, already mortified and wishing he could take it back. You're a stranger, and you've already shown how much you enjoyed making fun of him- why would he think to ask you such?

But you just shrug, "Do what feels right. Don't overthink." You say and hand him the bag. "The aim is for you both to feel good."

He hums and nods. "Thanks..."

There's silence for a few moments as he pays and takes the bag, and just as he's turning to leave, he stops again. Bakugo pulls out his phone swiftly and throws it onto the counter even quicker.

"Can I..." he trails off.

You stare at the phone for a while, then back at him. You smirk cheekily. "Sure." You chuckle as you put your number in his phone.

He takes it, looks at it for a second, before stuffing it back in his pocket. "You're here for the summer?" He asks.

You said so already..., and he knows.

"Yeah," you reply, leaning on your elbows. "Drop by anytime."

He hums and looks at you before turning and walking out of the store.

Ways of handling addictions in Only Friends

Tw: drug abuse, overdose

Let me tell this straight away - I was in a relationship with addicted person. By the time we started dating they didn’t use drugs for about couple of months by still used alcohol a lot. They’d come a long way to be clean and I was there all the time every time. This year they collapsed. Drug overdose, the end of it.

So I know that my personal experience doesn’t make me a profi automatically. Addiction is a very complex subject and very personal experience. But I do know a thing or two about it.

And the first rule here is: addicted person will never stop because of you. They need to want it for themselves.

By this moment we’ve been shown three different dynamics where one person is addicted and the other isn’t: Sand and Ray, Mew and Ray and Mew and Top.

Start with Mew and Ray. The thing is, Mew has no obligation to save Ray. He was there for him in the worst moment and, yes, I really want to say that he had to do more for Ray - he is his closest friend and he is definitely struggling - but. But Mew has a right to step away. Because navigating someone through healing is very hard and very long process and Mew doesn’t have to deal with it. I can’t blame him honestly for that.

For what I can critique not Mew specifically but the whole friend group (all four of them yes) is the very next scene where them all - including Ray - are drinking. Like guys, Ray right here tried to overdose, may be it would be nice to have a fucking break?

The Mew and Top situation is way different. Mew finds out Top uses drugs - that’s not the best thing to learn about someone, sure. But Mew doesn’t take time to think about “do I need that in my life” (which would be understandable), no. He makes a statement: stop using drugs and I’ll have sex with you. There is your price by the way. And this is also understandable - it is a manipulation, yes, but it’s very common way to try to handle things like that, and I would argue Mew has good intentions here. And oh, Mew, my boy, I’m sorry but that’s not how things work. You know Top can have more in a phone call, right? You understand that person saying “I’m not an addict” while having a dose in his pocket it’s at least a bit shady? I know that it doesn’t automatically implicates that Top is a hard addict but still.

But he is already lying about it. Using drugs while having fun with your friends it’s not the same thing as calling your dealer and using it alone in your room because you struggle with emotions, just saying.

Making him choose will never work out. Because he will choose, and it won’t be you.

And what’s about Sand and Ray? Sand knows for a fact that Ray has problems with alcohol. He doesn’t know about drugs, at least for now. Sand and Ray know each other for a very short period of time, and Sand is “it’s not my business” type of person, so I don’t criticize him while saying the next thing. But.

Sand is unintentionally supportive of Ray’s addictions. He drinks with him a lot - they are drinking buddies. I can’t be sure but it’s kind of looks like there will be a weed smoking next episode? For Sand drinking time to time and smoking weed can be fine - he is not addicted (by what we know). For Ray it is a call. So of course Sand, so as Mew, has a whole right to live his life without dealing with Ray’s addictions. But they are definitely falling for each other. That can develop into relationship. And then it will suddenly be a problem. But isn’t it already? How will Ray react if Sand suddenly turns from drinking/smoking with him to trying to stop him? I would say not the best way. There is also an option that for Sand it won’t be a problem so we’ll see.

The addiction is not a verdict. Both Top and Ray are young and very rich and it’s a very common thing for young rich people to have some kind of stuff - drugs, alcohol or both. It doesn’t automatically mean they are doomed. But still whoever decides to be in relationship with them (Mew and Sand, talking to you) have to think about it and think hard. Do you understand what are you dealing with? Do you honestly want to deal with it? Are you ready for all of highs and lows you’re going to face? If yes, then good luck to you - it really can work out. But don’t fool yourself into thinking that there is nothing to worry about.

Mark Jefferson

SERIOUS TW FOR: Kidnapping, Captivity, Grooming, Pedophilic Tendencies, Forced Substance Use, Forced Overdose, Voyeurism, Exhibitionism, Implied Sexual Assault

Maxine at 28 is still affected to this very day. Down to the very sound of the click of a cameras shutter. It still makes her cringe on the rare occasion. She hates her being the subject of a photo for this reason unless it is someone she trusts. Whom she loves.

I feel like despite being a soft person to most, someone hard to anger or scare- this is Maxines biggest shame. Her worst memory. Chloes death being the second.

Mark Jefferson wasn't just a serial killer. He didn't maim or dismember. He didn't make them faceless or hard to identify. He made them disappear after his needs were met. They became another red binder cataloging the loss- the very taking of what he valued most in young women, even girls.

Their purity. Their goodness. He wanted to catch the moment it was lost. And Maxine was one of his favorite subjects next to Rachel Amber whom he had a very dark and twisted relationship with.

I think, no matter how much it breaks my heart to think, that from what we've gathered from the games, and references to his relationship with Rachel, that there was probably some form of sexual assault. That he not only went so far as to drug Maxine and pose her like a doll for art. But something more. He makes a huge emphasis on taking away ones purity. And despite it being cliche, what is more precious to a teen, a young adult than that of their virginity?

And the hardest parts to swallow for me are the very real implications that she does die in that bunker. And that she had to go through some encounters multiple times in order to use her powers to get out of the dark room.

[eldritchsurveys]

1171.

Who’s the last person you were angry with? >> Sparrow, probably. I don't get angry with people often.

What was the last video game that you beat? >> Baldur's Gate 3.

When was the last time you ate Pop Tarts? >> Loooong time ago.

Have you ever hyperventilated? >> During meltdowns and such, yeah.

Do you like peaches? >> I do. I never eat them but I do like them.

Have you ever had lice? >> I haven't.

Colored or black-and-white photo? >> Either?

Do you believe in astrology? >> I do, I guess. "Believe" isn't exactly the verb I would use but I guess it technically is the correct one? It just has a lot of implications that may or may not have anything to do with my actual relationship with astrology, which is better described as "I find astrology to be an endlessly fascinating and deeply complex system whose insights I often find personally valuable". In my experiences with it -- outside of the hyper-generalised memes and charlatanry that is everywhere these days -- the astrology math be mathing a majority of the time, so I use it. (Usually when it doesn't add up it's because the person who gave the info didn't actually know what they were talkin about.)

It's also my "thing I'm pretentious about" -- I couldn't possibly say that I know a lot about astrology but what I do know forms a pretty solid foundation upon which to recognise when someone else doesn't know enough about it to be speaking on it. This is particularly true with people who treat astrologers and astrology enthusiasts as if they're stupid for using the system... but you couldn't tell them a damn thing, as is true with everyone who thinks they're too smart for something.

Who did you last give a piggyback ride to? .

Do you like Lady Gaga or does she try too hard? >> I love the implication that if you don't like Lady Gaga, it's because you think she tries too hard (at what???).

What would you do if you were stuck on a boat in the middle of the ocean? >> Die, eventually :V

Where did you last wear a bathing suit? .

Who did your last notification come from? >> Some rando on tumblr.

Do you feel more comfortable with a male or female doctor/nurse? >> bold of you to assume I'd ever feel comfortable in the doctor's office

Are you completely over your last relationship? .

Have you ever gone to a beach? >> I have.

Have you ever suspected anyone of cheating on you? >> I haven't.

What do you usually order on a pizza? >> Hey, this question again.

Have you ever done volunteer work just because you wanted to? >> I have not.

The last time you washed your hair, did you use conditioner? >> I don't use conditioner. Would you ever visit a psychic? >> Sure, maybe. I'm not particularly averse to it, but I also wouldn't spend money on that.

Have you ever had a stick insect as a pet? >> I haven't.

Has anyone ever called you stuck-up? >> Possibly.

Had sex at school? >> I have not.

[TW: ABUSE] Abusive relationship: leave him/her or keep it a secret? >> I'm sure if someone truly felt, like felt, in their whole body, like they could safely and successfully leave an abusive relationship, they would. Provided they passed the Insight check to realise they were in an abusive relationship in the first place. There is no "which one would you do" because no one actually knows what they would do. Not unless it happens to them. What recently happened that made you proud of yourself? >> I did some dishes earlier. [TW: DRUG OD] Ever have a drug overdose? What did you OD on exactly? >> Aside from purposely taking too many of a prescribed antipsychotic when I was 16 and suicidal, somehow I have managed to avoid this fate.

Are both of your blood parents still in your life? . Have you ever made out on a couch? >> Sure.

Someone asked you what you wanted, what would you say? >> Money? When’s the next time you’ll be drinking? >> I don't know, the next time I feel like it. What are you doing on Halloween? . Have you ever been drunk at school or work? .

Do you own any Sims games? Which ones? >> I have 4, and possibly 3 still.

What are you listening to at the moment? >> MyNoise preset, to drown out environmental noise (upstairs neighbour bullshit, mostly).

If you could take back saying anything to anyone, what would it be? .

Do you do anything regularly that could damage your body? >> Bodies are weirdly both very difficult to damage and very easy to damage, so... yeah, I'm sure I do. When were you the saddest in your life? .

If you have siblings, have they moved out or do they still live with you? .

Have you been outside today? >> I haven't.

Did you know you wanted to be in a relationship with the person you are now when you first met him/her? . Would you rather live in Alaska or New Zealand? >> Aotearoa New Zealand, easily.

Is there anyone in your life that knows right away something’s wrong with you? >> I don't think anyone could figure that out with any consistency.

If someone said to you “nice ass,” you say? >> How I respond depends on the circumstances and the person.

What would you do if you walked into your house only to find your boyfriend and your mother making out? .

What if you found out your partner had a previous sex change? >> Neat. What about it? Have you ever dated someone in the military? >> I did once.

Favorite burger condiments? >> Oh, the usual.

Do you like peanut butter? >> Sure.

Do you like cold pizza? >> I really don't. Hunks of cold cheese... blegh.

Have you ever broken a bone? >> I have not. Are you interested in creative writing of any sort? >> Sure.

Would you introduce the last person you kissed to your parents? .

What does the shirt you’re wearing look like? >> It's just a Fruit of the Loom undershirt. Or Hanes. IDK, one of the two. Do you like to cuddle? .

Is the last person of the opposite sex you texted single? . Would your parents disown you if you got pregnant? . Any baby names you think you might name your future kids? .

Think back to your most important relationship, was it all your fault it’s over? .

Has anyone seen you naked in the last 6 months? >> Sure -- I live with someone and I'm not shy about being partially dressed or undressed in front of them.

personal rant

TW: Anxiety, Covid mentions read at own risk, slight mention of Over doses, tw medication

I literally got the J&J Vaccine the day before it got cancelled and i’ve been having such bad anxiety ever since. I’ve been theorizing for a while I have theiroid problems so that isn’t helping at all and I suffer from leg cramps to begin with so every ache and pain i feel has been triggering me and setting me off to the point where i’ve had to start new anxiety/depression meds after going 4 years without needing them because i’ve been managing my anxiety with techniques and being able to manage my triggers and such on my own because I was having trouble managing the medication (I have a phobia of Overdosing since my friend accidentally OD’d on tylenol while we were at school together so when i couldn’t remember if I’d taken my meds or not I would rather go without taking them which doesn’t help anyone) 

I hate this irrational fear of every little ache or pulled muscle or wahtever that i know is going to end in like 3 minutes but I can’t help but immediatley go to the last case scenario and i hate it, I’m constantly afraid and frustrated and I want to cry! I want to scream and I just want to officially know i’m alright and going to stay alright.

Nothing helps where before this i suspected I had an absess (idk how to spell it) tooth which hasn’t been helping either because now i get the fun of balancing the��‘is this from the shot, the tooth or my anxiety?’ i’m so frustrated with myself! like my tooth doesn’t even hurt really I’m sick of being afraid of my own shadow and on top of i I don’t know if my meds are making it worse or better! which also brings the problem of if I up my dose (Doctor said to go from half a pill to a whole pill when I’m ready) will that make it better or will it make it worse?! 

so anyway that’s my rant because i can put things in writing better than I can vocalizing it. I start therapy again in the next week or so, hopefully that will help and i’m trying to hold out for that before i make another doctors appointment but I’m not sure if i can. I’ll delete this later so i’m sorry ahead of time

[daydreaming-ace]

About Winter

If you have no idea what I’m talking about: Winter was originally an OC for an emoji OC thing, but later evolved into an actual OC. Winter works in the Edibles Department of a research facility with Meri, and Winter often mixes up and forgets words in English or Italian. Winter uses no pronouns, and there are no exceptions.

Now you know what I’m talking about, there’s new information under the cut!

Winter has three other siblings: Summer, Clematis, and Bennington / Bennin. Winter has more contact with Summer, since au has actually settled down. Clematis is in college, and has been studying a lot, so he rarely talks to anyone. Bennin was doing photography for a bit, but no one really knows what she’s doing now. 

Summer lives in Maine with aur pet pig, Charlie, and often video calls from the house. When given the opportunity, Winter sometimes visits Summer and stays for a week before going back home. Summer is just a really accepting older sibling, and the oldest out of everyone (au mainly does photography, and writes articles for aur blog).

Clematis usually has to be dragged out of his studying to take a break, and Winter usually does it because Winter is closer to him. He will never (willingly) relax, so it’s safe to assume he’s either being forced to relax or something’s seriously wrong if he’s actually relaxing. He’s nearly identical to Winter in personality, but put in some more “recklessness” and add in “inability to relax”.

No one knows what Bennin is doing, not even she knows what she’s doing. She started photography a while back, but stopped because she thought it was a Summer-thing (au tried to explain to her that nothing’s off-limits because one person already likes it, but failed). She’s still in high school, so it worries both Winter and Summer when Bennin talks about finding an end-game job immediately after high school. 

Both Winter and Summer work to help their younger siblings with college (if Bennin decides to go). Summer always has rooms open for aur siblings, if they ever decide to live with aur in Maine (it’s a big house, and it sometimes gets lonely). Viri is Clematis’ roommate, so he helps keep Winter notified if Clematis does something stupid (like that time he drank so much soda it helped him “see faster”). 

Viri and Winter actually met through an incident with Clematis, where he passed out in the middle of the apartment. This caused Viri to freak out (since Clematis never willingly relaxes), and caused him to use Clematis’ phone to call the most recent person (which was Winter). This phone call led to Winter coming over, finding out what happened, Viri and Winter carrying Clematis to his room, and then the two of them talking until he woke up.

From oldest to youngest: Summer, Winter, Clematis, Bennin. Summer is 32 years old, Winter is 27 years old (older by 13 minutes), Clematis is 27 years old (younger by 13 minutes), and Bennin is 16 years old.

Summer uses au/aur/aurs/aurself pronouns. Winter uses no pronouns. Clematis uses he/him and they/them pronouns. Bennin mainly uses she/her pronouns but has been testing out xe/xim/xis pronouns.

febuwhump day 28: "you're safe now"

sequel to days 7 & 19 | tw: aftermath of torture, overdose, graphic injury | general audiences

It takes 24 hours to get a full list of possible suspects: anyone in the nearby area who matches Mulder’s rough description, who’s been in prison recently for violence against women or girls. The list is only 13 names long, but that’s still more than the local police can track down and interview in one day, and they’re running out of time.

Scully hasn’t had a vision since the one during the briefing, and she tries not to think about what that means.

It’s 8pm. The police force aren’t willing to send out officers until the morning, even though they have a list of addresses, even though Mulder might be dying, or dead – don’t think about that – and she’s rereading the names again, unable to do much else, when she realises she recognises one of them. It takes her ten minutes of scouring through the casefile before she finds it: one of the first witness interviews, for the first abducted man, before he was found dead, before the FBI got involved.

The man – Marshall Dunn, aged 35, released from prison 5 months ago after serving 2 years for aggravated assault - wasn’t a suspect, hadn’t even been called down to the station. But he’d worked in the same auto repair shop as the first victim. That’s a link.

It’s a hunch. A Mulder-sized one. But it sure beats waiting for another ten hours.

xXx

Less than an hour later, and Skinner’s pulled some strings to get her backup. Ten minutes later, they’re on the road, a ragtag convoy of her sedan and two FBI SUVs, and that’s when she gets another vision.

Mulder isn’t in it.

Instead she watches as the man washes his hands in the sink – his hands, stained red with blood – and pointedly looks up, into the mirror. She looks right into the eyes of Marshall Dunn, and feels her blood run cold as he speaks.

“Come find me. My work’s all done now, anyway.”

The vision fades away, and she pulls off the road, heart pounding so hard that for a moment she worries she’s going to pass out. It takes a minute to even her breathing, and when she raises her head she sees Skinner leaning out the back of one of the SUVs, looking over at her with concern painted across his face. She nods to him, once. Jaw clenched, she forces back tears.

Okay, you bastard. I’m on my way.

xXx

Marshall Dunn is upstairs, in the back bedroom, with an empty bottle of vodka and a pill container that once held prescription methadone. He’s still breathing, shallowly – by the time Scully gets to him, he’s already been put in the recovery position and an ambulance is on its way.

Even though she’s the doctor, and probably has some legal obligation to stay and help, she leaves the room without a word. The house isn’t very big, and it doesn’t take her long to sweep through the few rooms. There’s a bathroom – the bathroom, she recognises the mirror, and the sink is still stained with blood – a kitchen, a front room, but there’s nothing, no sign of Mulder’s presence. She checks the garage last, but even that reveals nothing – there’s no blood, no sign of a struggle, no weapon. It’s not the same room she saw in the visions.

The thought she’s not dared to think creeps into her mind: What if Mulder was never in the house at all?

Then she hears it; a human grunt of pain.

Her heart stops for a moment, relief and shock stopping all higher brain function, before she runs over the corner of the room. There, half-hidden under a tarp, is a trapdoor. It’s locked with a brand new heavy-duty padlock, the implications of which aren’t lost on her.

“Mulder?”

His voice – pained, shaky, but definitely Mulder – replies. “Scully.”

“I’m going to get you out of there.”

No time to find a key. She’ll have to shoot the lock off. It’ll destroy evidence – really, she should wait until someone can photograph it – but right now she doesn’t want to waste any more time. She fumbles with her gun, heart pounding in an echo of the two-beat in her head: Mul-der, Mul-der, Mul-der.

“Mulder, keep talking to me.”

There’s a sound from the other side of the door, one she can’t make out.

“Mulder?”

“Cold,” he whispers.

“I’m coming down there.” She forces her hands steady and takes aim at the lock. “Cover your head.”

The sound of the gun echoes through the garage, and she distantly hears shouts of surprise from upstairs. She should have warned them. Never mind. The trapdoor, now without the padlock, is easy enough to lift. She shines her flashlight into the hole and sees nothing but the floor.

“Mulder?”

No reply. She holsters her gun and drops down.

There’s a crunch as she hits the ground at an angle, her foot twisting awkwardly under her weight, but she grits her teeth through the pain. Raising her flashlight again, she realises that this is it, the place in the visions – the same cold dirt floor, the same breezeblock walls. She turns, orientating herself, and there’s Mulder, hunched in one of the corners, trembling. God.

She limps over to him and crouches by his side, assessing the situation. His shirt is in tatters, torn and cut away from his body, and his chest is covered in bruises and wounds. There are three long, deep cuts across his chest, one of which she recognises as the one she watched him receive. Scully knows they’re infected, too; one in particular is inflamed and still weeping fluid.

Mulder’s hands are pressed into the left side of his stomach, shaking worse than the rest of him; she wraps her fingers around one wrist, and eases it away from his body. Underneath is a mess of blood and torn fabric – he’s tried to stop the bleeding, probably too far gone to realise it wouldn’t help – but she can tell it’s bad. A penetrating abdominal wound, probably with a dirty blade.

Lying her coat on the ground, she eases him down until he’s on his back. He whimpers, eyes opening, and she leans over into his line of sight.  

“Hey, it’s me. You’re going to be okay.”

There are tears in his eyes. She’s not sure if they’re from pain or fear or both; either way, she swipes them away with her thumb, trying to soothe.

“It’s okay. It’s okay. I’ve got you.”

Under her hands, she feels his pulse start to calm as his body stops shaking. There’s movement above; she hears Skinner’s voice, shouting for someone to bring the paramedics, but she doesn’t take her eyes off Mulder’s. There’s an emotion in his gaze that she can’t quite label, but it brings a lump to her throat that she swallows down.

“I’ve got you,” she murmurs again, as his eyes start to close. “You’re safe now.”

Freeze!

I stared at my hands. Each racing heartbeat made them shake worse than the last. Blood rushed through my fingertips. Each vessel throbbed in time with the beat. My already waning vision worsened as my eyes welled up with tears. My head hit the desk with a thud. The rising and falling of my chest sped up with each passing minute. Why me?

The sound of knocking pulled me out of my trance. My phone, which was otherwise forgotten, clattered to the floor as I got up. I rushed to collect it and watched as my vision went blank and my head throbbed upon doing so. Fuck. I dropped it and clutched the edge of my desk as I fought to stay conscious. The most I knew is that it had landed on a hard surface. My nails dug into the surface as pain ripped through my body in waves. After a beat, albeit blurry from tears, my vision restored. My abdomen still throbbed in pain, but I could loosen the death grip I had and stand somewhat stable. My hands still shook and felt like pins and needles, however, they stabilized as my breathing slowed. I was free.

I grabbed my phone. No damage. I sighed with relief and tapped to wake it. I had several missed calls and texts. How long had I been gone? 2 hours had passed since the initial text. I frantically entered my passcode and opened the messages. Each one was more panicked than the last. My ribcage throbbed as my heart rate increased once more.

hi

hey?

hun?

hey are you alright??

Hey, i'm so so sorry. I was having a flareup and was struggling to see

Sharp pain coursed through me once more. My body shuddered in response.

Could you maybe come over if that's ok? I know you're hanging out with someone atm and i dont wanna take time away from that

i'm right outside your door.

Right. The knocking. The lock clicked as I turned the handle.

"Hey, sorry I kept you waiting"

"It's okay. Are you alright?"

[merakiui]

I saw you wanted to write more stuff with Zhongli in that tag, could do the mafia au thing mixed with soulmate au? (Basically when you make eye contact with your soulmate, you’ll finally see color after only seeing black and white your whole life. Vague idea but it’s there! ❤️ Also, what are all the tw for all the ideas you have and which ones will be sfw and nsfw? I’ll read them regardless of what they are <3

Ooh, that’s a brilliant idea!! Soulmate au with mafia au Zhongli would be interesting! I’ll have to keep that in mind as I continue to brainstorm ideas for him. Now as for what the general warnings will be for each fic (dark/nsfw content warnings ahead):

Bittersweet Secret chapter 6 - yandere, violence, descriptions of blood, unhealthy behaviors/relationship, captivity, Stockholm syndrome, strangulation, near-death.

↑ Small synopsis of the plot: Xiao comes to terms with what he’s done in order to keep his life and secret sweet, but darkness continues to lurk. Something goes horribly wrong and puts a strain on his relationship with you, thus forcing him to taste a new flavor.

Yandere!Albedo college au story - yandere, stalking, murder/death, mentions of drugs/overdose, violence, unhealthy behaviors, nsfw implications/scenes.

↑ Small synopsis of the plot: You think there’s more to calm and collected honor student Albedo than meets the eye. When a student passes away on campus under mysterious circumstances and you and Albedo meet at the crime scene, something tells you he had a hand in your classmate’s death. You’re determined to figure out the truth, even if it costs you greatly.

Yandere!Childe story - yandere, unhealthy behaviors/relationship, descriptions of blood/gore, kidnapping, forced relationship, murder/death, arranged marriage.

↑ Small synopsis of the plot: Misfortune and death hangs over your small village like a sickly fog. Livestock and villagers alike are going missing, only to be found slaughtered or intentionally buried under thick piles of snowfall. You scoff at the superstitions your father speaks of—skeptical of the supposed monster who’s stalking your village and wreaking havoc—until you come face to face with it.

Xiao x Reader x Venti - not yandere. the main warning for this would have to be angst/heartbreak.

↑ Small synopsis of the plot: You invite Xiao and Zhongli to take a road trip with you and Venti. You’re waiting for the perfect moment to confess, while Venti has been hung up on his feelings for years now and being the third wheel to you and Xiao has made him truly contemplate his crush on you.

Yandere!Albedo baby-trap fic - nsfw, yandere, unhealthy behaviors/relationship, friends with benefits, forced pregnancy/baby-trap, use of aphrodisiac.

↑ Small synopsis of the plot: Albedo asks you to assist in his newest experiment and you agree, not prepared for what’s to come as your relationship strays into dangerous territory.

Yandere!Kaeya fic - nsfw, yandere, unhealthy behaviors/relationship, intoxication, alcohol consumption, drunk sex, dub-con.

↑ Small synopsis of the plot: Your charming Calvary Captain challenges you to a drinking contest. If you win he covers your tavern bill and buys you lunch the following day. If he wins you’ll have to do a few favors for him.

Yandere!Kazuha fic - nsfw, yandere, unhealthy behaviors/relationship, somnophilia, non-con, obsessive thoughts.

↑ Small synopsis of the plot: In a perfect love story, you would return his feelings and it would be happily ever after. But this isn’t that type of story and Kazuha has to take matters into his own hands if he wants to make his love for you a permanent reality.

Yandere!Diluc fic - yandere, arranged marriage, unhealthy behaviors/relationship, attempted violence.

↑ You strive to be the perfect spouse for Diluc, but lately your relationship has taken a sour turn. Unable to fix things as they are, you turn to other methods in order to patch up your failing marriage.

if you’re hearing THE FUNERAL by YUNGBLUD playing, you have to know ANDREJ VÅRVIK (HE/HIM; CISMAN) is nearby! the 29 year old has been in denver for, like, FIVE YEARS. they’re known to be quite CALLOUS, but being QUICK-WITTED seems to balance that out. or maybe it’s the fact that they resemble THOMAS DOHERTY. personally, i’d love to know more about them seeing as how they’ve got those MIDNIGHTS STARING UP AT THE NIGHT SKY, THE SCENT OF COFFEE BREWING IN THE MORNINGS, CIGARETTE SMOKE LINGERING, PLANS TO RUN AWAY AND START A NEW LIFE vibes. and maybe i’ll get my chance if i hang out around the RIVER NORTH ART DISTRICT long enough!

trigger warnings: child abuse, drugs & alcohol, addiction

hello and welcome! andrej is a pretty well established character of mine so apologies for the longish bio. strap yourself in for a fun ride as we introduce andrej!

alrighty so this kid was born and raised in a small town in the middle of nowhere in norway. he was born a twin ( the younger one ) and he and his brother were pretty inseparable as kids, especially because they were homeschooled and didn’t have anyone but each other

( child abuse tw ) his parents were very very cruel people and treated their children as though they were robots. from a very young age, he was expected to study and learn difficult things, even to a university level. getting even just minor things wrong resulted in punishment which ranged from food being taken away, to being hit, to being locked in the basement ( child abuse tw end )

he was bright and picked things up easily but his parents always saw andrej as the “inferior twin” because he was the youngest and more sensitive than his brother. they only wanted one son and they made that very clear.

when he was 13, his father got a job in america which was when andrej finally learned a small taste of freedom. the twins were enrolled in school and andrej thrived because he finally had a chance to fill the lonely hole in his heart with people. this placed the first wedge between him and his brother because his brother was shyer than andrej so ended up being shunned to the side.

homelife was still hell and andrej dreaded coming home and would often get himself in trouble so he could get after school detention and remain there longer.

sixteen was when things too a drastic turn for andrej. he was starting to struggle a lot more and was having bad depressive episodes and intense mood swings which he didn’t know how to deal with.

( drugs tw ) he was invited to a party one night and snuck out so he could go and that was when he was introduced to heroin. it was the first time in his life that he’d ever felt good and things rapidly got out of control for him.

andrej was using regularly and drinking all the time and his brother was the one who had to protect him and hide what he was doing from their parents. this was the second wedge in their relationship because his brother resented andrej for what he was doing but andrej was too far gone to even notice or care.

then at eighteen years old, andrej finally escaped from the hell he lived in and ran away from home, leaving everything behind including his brother. he stole money from his parents to keep himself going but spent the next few years permanently inebriated, moving from motel to motel and spending half his nights in the beds of strangers. maybe he was wasting away his life but he didn’t really care because everything he did, he did it to just feel good.

( overdose and suicide implications tw ) his life couldn’t carry on like that forever and at 22 he finally went too far over the edge and overdosed. deep down, he wasn’t even sure if the overdose was actually an accident. for a long time, he had been living not caring if he died because he was miserable and his life just seemed worthless to him. but when he woke up in hospital still alive, this felt like the universe had given him a second chance.

but he knew he couldn’t stay in the hospital for long, so he ran as soon as he could and went back to his family home to find his brother and ask for help. his brother drove him to rehab to finally get the help he needed. in there, he was diagnosed with bpd which was a relief in a way for him because finally the dark things in his head begun making more sense to him.

it wasn’t an easy ride by no means and he relapsed multiple times and would forget to take his medication and the cycle would begin all over again. but once he reached 25 and had managed to remain sober for an entire year, that was when he moved to denver to find a place to settle.

he’s lived there for four years now and even though he’s not exactly happy, he’s doing okay. he has a job as a barista at a local cafe which he enjoys. this year he decided enroll in the local university to study meteorology, the one thing he’s always found fascinating, and maybe finally make something of his life.

SOME FUN FACTS!

he adopted a border collie when he moved to denver who’s named ✨aristotle✨ for very pretentious reasons. andrej adopted him so he wouldn’t feel so lonely and he hoped it would help w his depression bc he’d be forced to get out of bed to take care of him. the two of them wake up at 5am to go on hour long runs because andrej is a psychopath who hates himself

he’s very very bad at keeping jobs. he’d been fired from at least 10 jobs for various reasons which include but are not limited to: talking shit back to rude customers; “accidentally” dropping plates of food on rude customers; fucking co-workers in the staff room; simply just not turning up for work because he “didn’t feel like it”; telling shitty managers exactly what he thinks of them; stealing money from the cashier and claiming the cameras were edited to frame him… the list goes on.

despite this, he’s now working as a barista and he’s managed to survive 5 full months with very few incidents ( he’s discovered that swearing at people in norwegian doesn’t get him in trouble as nobody understands him )

he’s had a very difficult time with figuring out his identity as he was never allowed to explore himself and his interests as a kid and because he wasted away his teenage years and early twenties. he doesn’t really know what his interests are yet and his personality constantly switches because he’s unsure how to act but he’s doing his best to figure himself out

when he was younger he struggled a lot with his sexuality too but now he’s just decided fuck labels and if anyone asks he just vaguely waves his hand and mumbles something about being here and queer

even though he just wants to be loved, andrej is terrible in relationships. he knows he’s difficult to be with due to all his issues and his commitment issues are horrendous. whenever things get serious, he has a bad habit of ending it and running even if nothing bad had happened

tbh he just doesn’t think he can do monogamy but would probably be v happy in an open polyship where he has lots of people to keep him from being lonely but doesn’t feel too committed

he’s an absolute genius but nobody would ever suspect that considering he acts like he has zero brain cells most of the time. thanks to his parents, he can fluently speak at least six languages and is very well read and knows a lot of random shit

tbh he would be great on a quiz show and would probably end up winning if he tried

also he has a sweet tooth mainly because he was never allowed treats as a kid and now he’s discovered sugar he eats far too much of it

"And I saw, behold it was a white horse... and hell followed with him." Deputy Sabine Brody

bio below the cut, tw for mentions of torture and drug-use

Sabine is the younger sibling of Jason and Grant Brody, and the older sibling of Riley Brody. She was sweet, shy, and soft-spoken as a child, usually preferring to spend her time alone with her video games or nose buried in a book. Jason and herself were inseparable when younger, comments often made about how you never saw one without the other. This bond, unfortunately, waned as they got older and their interests pulled them in separate directions, Sabine never related to Jason on his desire for adventure and risk-taking.

Sabine pursued a business career, hopping between desk jobs and always having a tendency to fall so deeply into her work she rarely had time for personal relationships. Because of his worry for her, Grant ended up insisting she come with them on their celebrator vacation. Initially, she declines until persistent badgering from Grant makes her reconsider.

After being captured on the island, she tried to make the initial escape with Jason and Grant. They made it far from the camp but after Grant was shot, Sabine fell into hysterics and panic. She was caught by Vaas and held captive by him for days. In this period of time, she was tortured by the pirate lord himself, every interaction the two had was filmed. Sabine was able to escape, killing the pirates keeping her in the room before Jason arrived to save her. In a moment of panic, she attacks him before he snapped her out of her hysteria.

After escaping, Sabine became hellbent on revenge, joining in the fighting. She turned out to be an excellent soldier, slaughtering her way through endless outposts and pirates all with the goal of hunting down Vaas. When she finally does come face to face with him, a fight ensues that ends with her successfully killing him, only for her to realize it didn’t lessen the pain of losing Grant or what he’d done to her. She switched gears, trying to dedicate herself to saving their friends and getting off of the islands. Due to her revenge quest, she was completely blind to how Citra had been manipulating Jason, only seeing what’s wrong with the situation when it was too late.

She was captured with the others by the Rakyat, Citra intending to have them all sacrificed. While Jason prepared to cut Liza's throat, Sabine managed to escape her restraits, pleading with Jason to stop but unsuccessfully. A fight ensued between them, Sabine’s goal ultimately being to disarm Jason but she accidentally killed him by impaling him with the knife. The Rakyat turn on them, another struggle occurring before Sabine freed her friends and was able to flee the temple.

Sabine underwent intensive therapy after Rook Island. She blames herself everyday for what happened to Jason, personally feeling Riley hates her and alienating herself from her family and friends. She was prescribed opiods to deal with pain from a severe shoulder injury sustained on the island but ended up becoming addicted. Her substance abuse continued until she overdosed, being found by Riley and admitted herself to rehab on his request

Sabine gets a call one night that her brother, Riley’s plane has gone down and they can’t locate him. The implications initially are that her brother is dead but she later receives a voicemail from Riley saying he survived the crash. She worked out details by talking to people who knew where he was going and determined he was in Kyrat, working with old contacts from Rook Island to secure herself a private flight into the mountains. The initial plan is to be dropped off near the border and enter the country on foot to avoid detection but the plane was shot down and she was taken hostage by Yuma.

She was able to escape after enduring the hallucinogens that Yuma drugged her with. Tracking through the mountains of Durgesh, she finds her brother’s plane and then later Riley himself, whose been hiding out in one of the nearby caves. They were ambushed by The Royal Army before the Golden Path arrives, taking them captive initially as they’re unsure if they can be trusted. After determining the siblings aren’t a threat, they’re allowed to leave, though Sabine was convinced to fight as it was the only way she’d be able to secure safe passage out of Kyrat. During her time fighting for the Golden Path against Pagan, she began a romantic relationship with Amita. During this relationship, she's manipulated by her into killing Sabal.

When Pagan is removed from power ( due to being killed by Sabine ), Amita reveals her true colors and Sabine immediately ends things with her. She's allowed to leave the country with Riley, immense guilt weighing on her due to knowing she likely left Kyrat in a much worse state than it was initially in.

After the death of her mother due to illness, Sabine decides to move to Hope County, Montana, hearing all the stories about what a quiet and safe place it was. She's welcomed to the community by Earl Whitehorse and after bonding with him and other citizens of Hope County, he tells her she should think about training to become a policer officer. After enough thinking, she decides her learned skills from Rook Islands and Kyrat would be best put to use there. She's taken with Earl and the others on the night the Marshall decides to move forward with arresting the Project members and quickly is thrown back into a war she didn't ask to be part of. In the midst of trying to help clear the Seeds out of Hope County, she falls deeply in love with Faith, though due to being unable to convince her to leave the cult, she's forced to fight and kill her.

As The Collapse begins, Sabine takes shelter in the Rye’s bunker. When emerging, she decides to head her own way, encountering Thomas Rush after travelling across the country side. There’s an immediate bond formed between the two as they relate over their combat experiences. Sabine becomes Thomas’s captain of security and years later, Carmina Rye, her god-daughter, gets in touch with her to ask for her help. She brings it up to Thomas and they head back to Hope County only to be stopped by the Highwaymen.

After being reunited with the Ryes and other residents of Hope County, Sabine begins a mission to liberate Prosperity from the Highwaymen’s iron grip.
