I'm mainly interested in what snarky remark Lars has this time but how would the ROs react if its first date, MC is wearing high heels for the first time and trips, avoiding a faceplant by doing a handstand...only to realize they're wearing a dress and gravity hath no mercy?

This happened to me in high school and my friends still joke that I'm the type to literally fall head over heels in love. 😆

Rook: Honestly, he would probably laugh LMAO if you're embarrassed or try to say anything about it, he'd be like "No, that was awesome. I was too focused on the acrobatics to notice anything." (Half true, but he isn't about to admit that alkdjalfjda)

Beck: Has the grace to pretend that didn't happen and/or gently reassure you that it's fine and he wasn't paying that much attention if you're embarrassed. Would also offer a hand/arm to help make sure you don't trip again

Rhea: She is slightly embarrassed, and if you're embarrassed that would only double it. She'd try her best to brush it off, saying, "Well, at least you didn't trip, right?" It'd probably take her a minute to look you in the eyes again

Zoe: Kinda just blinks at you with wide eyes, like "Are you ok??" before the whole series of events hits them and they kinda just freeze. If you're embarrassed to, they are covering their face with their hands, stammering, "It's fine, it's fine! I promise!"

Lars: "Maybe get some practice in before you wear those." He'd just roll his eyes at your antics, probably not even surprised you'd do that without thinking lol He wouldn't even acknowledge your embarrassment, like it isn't a big deal let's carry on. He would keep an eye on for the rest of the date though, half expecting you to trip again

???: I also think they'd laugh afkldja but more so under their breath because this just seems like something you'd do without thinking. I think they'd also just genuinely be impressed at your quick reaction time. If you get embarrassed, they just gently reassure you, "Rather that than you getting hurt, right?"

Hiii Sweety, I don’t know if you write for kaji. If not, feel free to ignore this request :)

But if you write for him, could you write something about him fucking the reader in cute lil sundress?

Oh Kaji loves them. He’s never really given much thought to women’s clothing or anything like that. But the first time he saw you in a lil sundress??? It shifts something in him.

“Fuck baby, you look so good,” Kaji groaned. He had you bent over the counter, admiring the way your little dress just barely covered your ass.

“We’re gonna be late to Ume’s party,” you replied though there was absolutely no urgency in your voice. Kaji flipped up your skirt and kneaded your ass.

“Don’t care,” Kaji replied. “Need you now.” His thumb was rubbing your cunt through your undies, already seeing a damp spot forming. There was a deeper reason Kaji wanted you now. He wasn’t necessarily insecure, but the thought of all the guys looking at you in a little dress like this made his anger flare up. But you know what would quell that? Knowing you were walking around the party with his cum still inside you.

“Don’t tease,” you whined as he pulled your undies to the side. The cool air hit your hot, wet cunt making you shiver. If he was gonna fuck you, you wanted it now.

Kaji happily obliged, pushing into you. He fucks hard and fast, love how the fabric flutters around your body. It’s a little frantic and needy, driven by the need to claim you. These damn dresses have really done something to his brain.

“Gonna make you cum so good, angel. Everyone’s gonna know you’re mine.”

Bound!omegaverse Stan absolutely bewildered at what Ford, his nerdy alpha brother, is doing at a black market. But also fuck it he’s so glad because at least his brother saved him from being sold to some random alpha.

Stan: haha thanks for bailing me out there, Ford. I really owe you one. I can uh. Pay you back? For what you spent on me?

Ford: oh, yes. You owe me. I do expect to be paid back.

Stan: okay…well, uh. It might take some time for me to get the funds together? So if you wanna give me your info or something I can get back to you when I have—

Ford: no need. I already know how you’re going to pay me back. You already have what I want.

Stan: what do you mean? Also can you untie me already? …Hey, why are you grabbing me like that? Ford??

Ford: let’s go home, Stan (:

I wasn’t really thinking of any specific lingerie, just the idea of it is 🔥💦 to me. Also picture Ford buying Stan a little apron he can wear in the kitchen. Stan didn’t want to wear the thing the first time so Ford slips it on him, leaning close to kiss and nuzzle at his neck while he ties the apron in a pretty bow behind Stan’s back.

Listen, realistically, Stan is just begging to be a housewife. We've all seen the Jimmy Snakes apron art. Ford definitely knows best 😉

But fr the miscommunication after they get out of the market is gonna go crazzzzyyyy. The way I envision Bound!Stan is actually also wanting Ford and wanting to be treated gently (and also punished), but not wanting to allow himself to have these things. He's had to be tough for so long, and letting yourself be vulnerable in some of the situations he's been in was a death sentence. He's also already been cast out by Ford before and he's afraid that he's going to mess things up again.

So I do think he'd be really resistant at first, even though it's something he does really want. Not to worry though, bc Ford is going to give it to him.

favorite face farting position?

recently been very into the other person sitting on the couch and me being on my knees with my head stuffed in between their legs 🤭

[hockeyboistrash]

Lifeguard!Luke who asks you to help apply sun cream to his back (he can defo ask a colleague but this is way more intimate) but flushes redder than his shorts when you touch him👀

Lifeguard!Luke whose hands shake when you ask him to help you apply sun cream on your back👀

Lifeguard!Luke who sometimes flexes his muscles when you approach him or when he walks past👀

Lifegurard!Luke who feels the slightest bit of jealousy in his stomach when guys approach you at the pool👀

LOVED THE FIC EM, I've literally been thinking about it non-stop and since last night!! And reader's fingers underneath his waistband? FIRRGHIOQFNGH GIRL YES SO MANY THOUGHTS

Meg pls I'm at work right now 😭 you have now corrupted my mind with lifeguard!luke 😩 (no work is getting done now 🤣)

Luke would gently rub the sun cream on because like your boob's are right in front of him and his brain is short circuiting. "Luke you can rub harder, you know" 😏 will gladly put cream on your ass too (to clarify this isn't happening at the pool because ya know kids about lmao)

You'd both get jealous fr. You'd be sat in your new spot, right beside the lifeguard tower, and can see some girl from your math class eye fucking your boyfriend. Luke bless him would be oblivious when she's trying to flirt. (Might expand on the jealousy in a fic 👀)

Meg thank you so so much 🥹 your kind words mean so much to me. I'm glad I could do your idea justice 🫶🏻

Hi, lovely! Could you write something with Tim being worried about Lucy because of Seth, and saying something to her along the lines of "He's going to get you killed, Lucy."?

Lucy's hand trembles as she pulls her dirty undershirt out of her locker, quickly shoving it into her bag. "You don't think I don't know that?"

“Obviously you don't, otherwise he wouldn't still be pulling stupid stunts like the death wish he had today!”

She thinks about slamming the door of her locker closed and even fleetingly considers storming off. But instead of giving in to what she wants, Lucy takes a deep breath in through her nose and counts to five. She knows that what Seth did today was stupid and since he’s her rookie, she was partially responsible for his actions. But that knowledge doesn’t make things any easier. 

Lucy twists her body to look at Tim for the first time since he stormed into the women's locker room. 

Though his shoulders are taut, and his facial expressions are hardened, it's the tone of the truth that slips past his lips that gives him away. He's scared, but his unadulterated fear was different from her own, which still chilled her to her bones. 

"Could you please not?" There's a burning sensation behind her eyes as her throat constricts with a harsh swallow. She's not going to cry, not here, not now, but she doesn't have it in her to cover the tremble of her voice. "I don't need a lecture from you right now."

She just wants this day to be over. More than that, she just wants to go home. 

Tim's next words were uttered into existence with a voice that was much quieter, softer, than before. 

"Lucy."

“What." The word comes out harsher than she intended it to, but right now, she doesn't give a shit. 

"I'm sorry. I shouldn't have-" 

“You’re right. You shouldn’t have.” 

Tim takes a step forward. “Are you okay?”

"Not really." Lucy rasps. She wasn't okay, not in the least. 

The sigh Tim releases is immense as he drops the bag on his shoulder to the ground. "Come here." 

Lucy only thinks about it for a moment before she takes one step forward to find comfort in his open arms. She wraps her arms over his shoulders and around his back, closing her eyes. She can’t help but think that it’s a little pathetic how quickly she melts into his warmth as she takes a deep breath in, inhaling the same scent that the shirt she wears to bed every night once held. 

"I shouldn’t have yelled at you. I’m sorry." His breath is warm against the nape of her neck as he whispers. “Is there anything I can do to help?” 

“You’re already doing it.” For the first time in what felt like hours, Lucy finds herself relaxing. "Grey said we would finish handling it in the morning, I just wish Seth's career didn't have to end this way."

"There was no other choice to make. You did everything you could, but the kid was a walking liability. It was only a matter of time before he got you, himself, or a civilian, killed." 

Lucy pulls away at the thought. She doesn't have to tell him just how close her former boot had come to achieving two out of the three today. 

"Look, I know things have been a bit chaotic recently,” She says as Tim takes a step back to retrieve his bag that had been abandoned. “But we still haven't had that conversation you promised me a few weeks ago."

Tim raises his brow with a curious grin. "No, no, we haven't. What did you have in mind?" 

"There’s a new pet-friendly restaurant with outdoor seating a couple of blocks from here. I was thinking that maybe you could go grab Kojo, and we could finally have that talk." 

The door of the locker room swings open, but neither of them pays the person any mind. 

"Are you sure?" 

Without hesitation, Lucy nods. Was she still shaken up over the events that had transpired today? Yes. But she knows she can be traumatized with a glass of wine in her hand, a plate of food on the table in front of her, and her favorite canine sleeping at her feet. 

“Ask me that again, and you’ll be the one buying me a glass of wine.” She teases with a grin. The threat is empty and they both know it. In all actuality, Lucy appreciates the concern. 

Tim rolls his eyes, though his smile ultimately betrays him. "Text me the address."

Lucy hums in acknowledgement as he walks away. The better portion of her day may have been shit, but at least her evening was looking up.

Imagine being rook and fumbling so hard your first love no longer wants to be friends with you and is now dating your roommate who you hate

Honestly the friendship break up with Rook + dating Beck path is so fucking funny to me for this reason

[theresa-of-liechtenstein]

Hi! I think that you might be the perfect person to ask this question to. So, Cabin Pressure - I feel like I understand all the characters well, I've written them many times, I know their voices. Except... Theresa. I know that she's A Literal Princess, witty, falls for Martin, but somehow I feel like I've never fully -gotten- who she is. So could you rec any fics that are really good on the Theresa characterisation? I'm happy to read any pairing or rating, I also don't mind if they're yours of course *g*

hey there! 👋🏻 first off, sorry for not getting back to you right away! i wanted to sit down and write you a proper reply, considering theresa characterization has occupied at least some part of my brain for the greater part of the past decade (my god, has it really been that long?) and, really, my time playing in the fandot sandbox.

i tend to write far more than i read, ha, but i can point you in this direction: maybe you've heard of it before, but there was a push to encourage more theresa-featured or theresa-centric fic in the ao3 tag, called project theresa (@projecttheresa was the tumblr blog for it, and the ao3 collection is here). it was spearheaded by @sircarolyn and @wellamarke in 2016, re-emphasized in 2021 (which is where i joined in a bit, rather than cheering from the sidelines) and, technically, is still ongoing! so i would recommend the flowering of fic that came out of that initiative. i want to add more to it myself, though i have a couple of works backed up in the pipeline (the first year of grad school was a little bit more taxing than i anticipated, but i really do want to get back to writing). especially since next year will mark a decade since the original project theresa was started, i'd like to do something for that.

anyways, i hope this helps you on your theresa journey and thanks for asking!! 🫶🏻

Can I request some reader and Steve on Halloween after their babies have gone to bed and the two parents enjoying their alone time on the couch watching movies and going through their kids candy

UGH my heart!! sorry it’s so late on halloween, but i hope you enjoy anyways 💛 dad!steve & mom!reader; wc 904

-

You’re sitting on the couch, feet kicked up in the coffee table, going through a bag of candy by the time Steve finally re-emerges from your middle child’s bedroom. You hear the shuffle of his feet against the hardwood floor that creaks in certain well-worn areas, and your head shoots up, grinning at the sight of your sleepy husband. His hair is floppy and falling into his face, a pair of glasses perched on his nose, and he’s wearing sweatpants and an old shirt that reveals a bit of tan skin when he stretches and then cards his hands through his hair. He yawns as he makes his way over to you, shaking his head as if to try to wake himself up, ���Molly finally fell asleep.”

“Took long enough,” you snort. He’d been in her room for nearly half an hour.

“She just kept talking and talking, no matter how much I tried to get her to go to sleep. She didn’t say it, but I think she was scared she’d have bad dreams,” Steve shakes his head again, this time fondly as he drops onto the couch next to you.

“Our sweet girl,” you frown, leaning into your husband’s side, “Too delicate for even Halloween, huh?” Molly’s your sensitive child, always emotional and in tune with what everyone else is feeling, always takes things to heart.

“Well, to be fair, that asshole a few blocks over did scare them. I get scaring some kids, but did Winnie the Pooh, a fairy princess, and Raggedy Ann look like they wanted to be scared?” Steve’s still annoyed, you can tell, even though he’d yelled at the twenty-something jerk who had made his babies cry.

“She was just surprised, she’ll be okay,” you comfort Steve, the palm of your hand landing on his thigh as he grumbles and pouts, not unlike your kids do. “Will you be okay? Or do we need to cancel our yearly Halloween movie marathon and candy stealing?”

He perks up at that and presses a kiss to your temple, “No, no, we definitely can’t cancel that.” For as long as you’ve been with Steve, Halloween night was reserved for a scary movie marathon for the two of you, and sometimes a couple of friends. And once you had kids old enough to trick-or-treat, you’d started rummaging through their haul, taking what you wanted for yourselves. They never noticed, and they never ate all of their candy, anyway.

You squeeze Steve’s knee, cheek smushed into Steve’s shoulder as you move in closer, “Okay, good. Woulda been real upset to have to miss out on that. What should we watch first?”

Steve lets you choose first, so you’re quick to get up and put on Hocus Pocus. It’s definitely not Steve’s first pick, but it’s not a bad choice. You quickly rejoin Steve on the couch, sitting next to him closer than necessary, though he doesn’t mind at all, and you throw a blanket over your laps. He makes a big show of pretending to yawn, like boys would do in high school, stretching his arms over his head before casually resting the one closest to you over your shoulders. It makes you burst into giggles, both slightly flustered, and endeared to your husband’s ridiculous antics. The fact that he still makes you feel like this, even after all your years together, doesn’t escape you, and you snuggle into his side, pressing your cheek to his chest, “You’ve still got the moves, Harrington.”

You can feel his laugh under your cheek, his chest heaving with it as he says, “What can I say? Still gotta impress my girl.”

“It’s working,” you reply, resting your hand over his heart.

Silence falls over the two of you as the movie begins to play, until Steve’s foot nudges one of the kids’ bag of candy on the table that you’d previously been digging through. He shoots up, eyes wide as he grabs the three bags of candy, dropping them in your laps, “We almost forgot the most important part. What do you want? If you say something gross like almond joy, I’m divorcing you.”

“Steve, I literally saw you eat a handful of candy corn earlier. A literal handful.”

“Candy corn is a must on Halloween!” Steve gasps a bit too loudly, indignant, and totally forgetting that you have three kids who just went to sleep.

You quickly slap a hand over his mouth, covering your own laughter, “Shh! Don’t wake the kids!”

Eyes wide, Steve realizes what he’s done, and you both wait with bated breath, desperately hoping you don’t hear any tiny feet in the hallway. When a minute passes without any doors creaking open, you turn your attention back to your husband, who is in the middle of licking the palm of your hand to get it off of his mouth.

You nearly shriek but manage to hold it in, working your hand against Steve’s sweatshirt, “Ugh. Disgusting.”

“You love me,” he says, so confidently, so assuredly, you couldn’t deny it even if you wanted to (and you definitely don’t want to).

“Yeah, I do, Stevie. You can make it up to me with a kiss and a peanut butter cup, though.”

Steve picks out a pumpkin shaped peanut butter cup and presents it to you, his free hand cupping your jaw for a soft peck on the lips, “That I can do.”

Jealous Noa does something to me. 😚

hi uh thanks satan now i cant stop thinking about it let's get FERAL

NSFW CONTENT BELOW ( 18+ ) PLEASE READ AT YOUR OWN RISK THANK YOUUUU.

Imagine Noa like... Denying you seeing your friend ( another male ape in the clan who you've gotten close with ). Noa brings it up of course, a bit bitter at the way you smelled that particular afternoon, maybe some added stressors like the Elders being on his ass about something.

Like, you have accidentally brought this Apes SCENT into the nest? How DARE? It's on your clothing, it's in your HAIR, soaked into your SKIN? That's how close in proximity you've been, you're defending yourself, Noa knows that and there's rational thought in there somewhere but he doesn't like it. "You're not allowed to see him again."

"You can't stop me from seeing my friends, Noa!"

"Do you... want to bet?" A phrase you had taught him comes back as he rounds near you, the intentions in his eyes flurrying to you as you swallowed and nodded. Yeah, you wanted to bet. You wanted to find out. "What are you gonna do to me, Eagle Boy?" Your voice is nothing more than a tease to him.

And well

Your clothes are nothing but a tangled mess on the ground, torn to PIECES because Noa doesn't feel like sparing them a second chance, the absolute carnage of his canines against your neck, him swiping your body so you're pressed against him, your back flushed to his chest and he starts trailing his bites along the back of your neck and RIGHT BETWEEN YOUR SHOULDER BLADES.

Right in the most tender spot that he can find and he's holding you against him as you're moaning, squirming and telling him that you're sorry, that you won't hang out with him again and he just. Let's you rub against him like that, letting your scent rub against him of course, but in return, you're getting absolutely blasted with his own and something deep inside of him knows that it's going to take a lot of washing for it to fade.

Plops you right on the nest, face down he doesn't know how to handle his emotions looking at your face, thinking that this other Ape had more intentions with you than you were really willing to realize.

No foreplay this time, he's mounting you. You're his and you know you are as your body is reacting to him, urging him to take you as you moaned his name.

No pleasure outside of the brief moment he shatters into you and your hands are hard to grasp the animal pelt below you, lungs rattling at the pure force and drive of his hips snapping into yours.

I have a feeling he'd be spiteful enough to make you wait to orgasm though, quick for himself to fill you to the brim, marking you even further as you squiggle against him and he can feel you tightening around him as he continues at a slower pace, content in his actions as he light licks the blood from your shoulder blades, lapping his tongue around and giving artistic swirls of red against your skin.

You're begging him, literally, to let you cum. To touch you, to do anything, legs shaking and forearms tense as you were struggling to keep yourself up. You think he's done? No, no. He is on his butt, grasping your legs and tearing you right against him, back once again flushed to his chest as he helps you right him, your legs being almost suspended in air as Noa uses the strength he had to practically man-handle you on his cock. Hard, he's relentless and mean almost, feeling the tug of bruising along the softer nature of your inner thighs but you don't want it to stop. He brushes his tongue along the side of your neck, cementing even more of himself on you as you toss your head back against his shoulder as you finally orgasm against him.

Afterwards is really nice and tender tho like. Noa making sure that he didn't hurt you, making sure that you were okay as he racks his hand through your hair ( Hey another sprinkling of his scent all over you, how sweet <3 ). You're face down in the nest and just laugh as he looks at the pretty nasty bite mark between your shoulder blades with a bit of guilt, thinking that he had actually hurt you. But, you turn your face and laugh softly at him and mutter, "So it took hang out with another Ape to get you to come out like that? I need to hang out with them more."

2, 4, 7, and 25 from the character ask game for Dimitri?

Dimitri! Thanks for asking - this was a fun set of questions. (Would love to hear your thoughts too!)

2. Favorite canon thing about this character?

I really admire his dedication to his people and protecting vulnerable groups like orphans and those experiencing poverty. People like to call him a centrist or a conservative or whatever, but if you check out his endings, I don't... really see that.

Solo, he works on helping orphans and improving foreign relations. With Dedue, the foreign relations focus is Duscur.

With Byleth, he implements reforms of both government and church. With Annette, the (presumably government) policy changes are explicitly described as revolutionary.

With Hapi, he destroys TWSITD to get justice for Duscur and helps cure her of her condition.

(Obviously, the endcards are short, so there's a lot we don't know, but that's true of everyone's endcards. And of course each lord's end is best case scenario of their route for obvious reasons, but there's also a lot of examples of him saying things in line with these endcards during the actual storyline in both Houses and Hopes.)

He wants to make things better, and importantly he is concerned about who might get lost along the way, and I appreciate that about him.

4. If you could put this character in any other media, be it a book, a movie, anything, what would you put them in?

I literally haven't thought about this beyond this exact moment, but I'd kind of like to see what he'd do in the Dragon Age series, given the similarly politically complicated setting with different factions and a lot of morally grey issues. If we're talking like, taking it out of medieval/middle-ages-related content... hm. No real deep thought here but Full Metal Panic! would be kind of fun, I guess because it's a fun mix of school hijinks, international intrigue, romance, and mecha. There's some psychological aspects to the series, too, which would be interesting for multiple characters. Hm. I would probably never write this, but if someone did... I would read.

7. What's something the fandom does when it comes to this character that you like?

There's a lot I don't like that fandom does with Dimitri, so I'll try to uh... refocus that lmao. I like when fandom adequately addresses his mental health struggles (which is unfortunately less often than I'd like, including in my own writing). I think it's hard to do because a lot of people are uncomfortable with depicting mental health struggles, a lot of people don't understand mental health struggles (especially Dimitri's), and a lot of people just aren't interested in it (fine!). So I get why it's not addressed (well) as often as it is. But when it is addressed well, damn, that's a meal.

But more generally, I like when fandom shows his sassy side. He can be pretty playful, especially with Dedue and Felix!

25. What was your first impression of this character? How about now?

Pfffft. I'm trying to remember. I played CF > AM > VW > SS when the game first came out. I intentionally avoided spoilers as much as I could, but I knew you'd get a different perspective depending on route, so I think I remember being intrigued by him but tried to reserve judgment until I'd played all the routes.

Now I really like him. I mean he's half of one of my favorite ships (Dimilix!). I think he (like the other lords) gets severely misrepresented a lot of the time, so I mostly stay out of those debates. I relate to the empathy to anger pipeline that exists within him, and also appreciate the community focus that he and the other Blue Lions have.
