So tell me if I run away, how long will I bleed? by Dark_Rosaleen (TW: Mention of rape/non-con Re: Dr. Wells | 3K | Mature): “Can we… can we back up a sec?” Eddie says, heart hammering because he can’t have heard that right. “Uh, yeah.” Buck says with a bemused expression. “You had sex with your therapist?” Buck frowns.

the cat's meow by 42hrb/ @exhuastedpigeon (Post-S7 | 4K | Explicit): Buck walked into Eddie's house and froze. “Is that a cat?” “Well it’s not a dog,” Eddie laughed, shifting so he was sitting up. Pinto made a dissatisfied little cooing sound as he moved, but settled in his lap once he was upright. “When the hell did you get a cat?” - Eddie adopts a cat and let's himself have good things.

Love & Other Surprises by JJK/ @trenchcoatsandtimetravel (Post-S7 | Getting Together | 4K | Teen): After going to collect Christopher from Texas, Buck and Eddie turn up to the firehouse wearing wedding rings. Everyone is understandably confused.

Sweet Talk by Daisies_and_Briars/ @cal-daisies-and-briars (Post-S7 | 6K | Teen): Eddie asks to crash at the loft while Christopher is gone, struggling to be on his own. Only problem? There's only one bed, and no couch.

🔥 by any other name by coldbam/ @coldbam (Post-S7, Jealous Buck | 7K | Explicit): “Eddie, this guy—he gave me my name.” Eddie’s eyebrows crease together. “Buck here is forgetting the full introduction.” Bailey steps forward and extends his hand to Eddie. “Evan Bailey, 178. I go by Evan now.” He winks, and he’s still got Eddie’s hand grasped in his, the handshake going on a lot longer than necessary. But Bailey always liked to make an impression, especially with— Well, especially with guys he thought were hot. * Eddie meets one of those other Evans from Buck's academy class. Buck is totally normal about it.

Friendly Advice by Inell/ @inell (Post-S7, Getting Together | 7K | Teen): When Ravi asks Buck and Eddie to have dinner with him, they don’t expect him to ask them for advice on how they remained friends after breaking up. The issue? They’ve never been a couple.

all you're giving me is friction by hammersmiths/ @henswilsons (Canon Divergent, S2 | 8K | Teen): “Now that is a handsome man.” The first thing Hen notices about New Recruit Eddie Diaz is that he is in possession of a remarkable set of abdominal muscles. The next thing she notices is the wedding ring. And Buck is staring at him like a piece of meat. “Oh, nuh-uh,” she says immediately. “Don’t even think about it, Buckley.” or, Eddie is new, and married, and Buck won’t stop flirting. 5+1.

🔥I didn't know (that it could be good) by rainbow_nerds/ @rainbow-nerdss (Post-S7, FWB | 27K | Explicit): They're friends, that's all there is to it. Until Eddie lets himself into Buck's apartment unannounced, and finds him in a compromising position. That should be nothing, just something to laugh about down the line, except afterwards, it's like a switch has flipped, and neither of them can get it out of their minds. The solution? They need to get it out of their systems. Just one time, and things will go back to normal. But one time turns to two, which turns to more nights spent together than apart, and still, they haven't actually spoken about what any of this means for them. They're still just friends, right?

When they both end up in Los Angeles, at the 118, some things are different, and others will be the same in any universe.

🔥 go and kill, go and die by Daisies_and_Briars/ @cal-daisies-and-briars (Zombie Apocalypse AU | 7/14 | 32K | Mature): The 118 are a group of survivors in a small California town in the wake of a zombie apocalypse. For months they've been isolated and safe. But the arrival of some new players, the search for some missing loved ones, will shake everything up and put their little team in jeopardy.

Podfic

This Mortal Coil (Shuffle) by knuckledusters/ @danhalen // fic eirabach/ @eirabach (S6E11: In Another Life | 2-2.5h | Mature): Maddie was never supposed to be Buck’s mother. Eddie was never allowed to be his anything. But three minutes and seventeen seconds later, here they are. [Or, Maddie and Eddie wait, bond, and remember.]

Re-read

🔥 like a bird stealing bread out from under your nose by Daisies_and_Briars/ @cal-daisies-and-briars (Post-S7, Fix-It | 21K | Mature): If you’d asked Eddie back in May what rock bottom looked like, it was his son leaving him. That felt like it; everything ruined so entirely that there was no way to ruin it further. There’s always more to lose.

🔥 situations, circumstances, miscommunications ( i just may like some explanations ) by heartbeatdiaz / @lonelychicago (Didn't Know They Were Dating | 4K | Teen): "You didn't know?" Eddie asks, calmer but not less confused. He frowns. "How could you not know?" "You never said anything?" Buck tilts his head to the side. "We were dating?” “I guess not,” Eddie sighs. His heart is beating a little faster, an unpleasant buzz beneath his skin as he all but chokes on a feeling he can’t quite name— it could be hurt or disappointment or maybe a mix of both. In that moment, he knows three things very clearly. 1. Buck is going to be the death of him. 2. He is in love with the most dense, most oblivious man on planet Earth. 3. He is too gay and, honestly, too old for this shit.

How Come You Didn't Tell Me We Were Dating? I Didn't Know Either! by Sonayesul (Didn't Know They Were Dating | 6K | General): “Omigod, I’m in love with Buck,” Eddie said, burying his face in his hands. “I didn’t mean to cause a crisis,” Frank said. “I’m in love with Buck.” Eddie repeated. “I should not have assumed your relationship with him,” Frank continued on. “I’m in love with Buck.” He’s like a broken record. “Maybe we should end early today.” Frank suggested and Eddie weakly nodded. ~ In which case, Buck and Eddie have been dating for six months. Except neither of them got the memo.

Hyunjin loves art, yes, but he loves you more. Don't even try to not make things about you if you're around because you'll be unsuccessful.

"Okay mr. Picasso draw an apple for me"

Five minutes later he'd be handing you the sketchbook, a pencil sketch picturing YOU holding an apple.

"This is ridiculous" you whisper, lowkey speechless. Hyunjin would pout, looking genuinely sad for a moment.

"You don't like it?" and of course you'd throw yourself at him covering him with kisses and praises all over his face.

He's just extra talented and in love! It's not his fault!

He'd be so happy to either learn from you or teach you, if you asked. Like oh my gosh imagine if he had an actual artist as a partner? He'd be so in awe and interested in each and every step of the process.

He would a hundred percent ask you to teach him, whatever the technique. He'd just be so excited to spend time with you regardless <3

Same thing if the roles were reversed and he was the teacher! He'd be very honored if asked him to teach you, probably because even though he's crazy good he wouldn't consider himself a professional artist.

You'd just end you having so much fun together. I feel like Hyunjin would shower you with praises and encouragement.

"That looks so good already, baby."

"It's...missing an arm and hair"

And he'd just respond "It's his business not yours" in the cutest most unserious tone.

"Hyune, come here a sec" you call out and whatever he was doing, he'd walk over.

"I don't think the sketch is bad but something is off. Is it the colors?" he listens, giving you a sweet kiss on the head, then focusing on the painting.

"I think the purple is a bit bright, try adding some black. I know you usually shouldn't but I don't think it's a drop is gonna hurt." he answers softly, picking up the acrylic and then mixing.

He picks up the brush and skillfully covers up the previous color, smiling to himself in satisfaction afterwards.

"See? Now the palette is more balanced." he gives you another kiss because, well yes.

"Yes it does! Colors do make such a difference. Thank you, honey"

It doesn't always need to be a learning experience though! Sometimes you just want to have a laugh or make a mess and then then make out covered in paint like it's not that serious.

It would happen specifically when someone got stressed working on a piece, and maybe it just sucked and wanted to throw it away, so might as well transform it into a whole abstract piece and get a laugh out of it. Mood lifted!

You and Hyunjin were just chilling, sitting together on the couch late at night, a whole storm outside. He turns to you, saying:

"Do you want to play a game?" you look up at him.

"Okay, Jigsaw. What were you thinking?"

He stands up, walking around the living room to pick up two sketchbooks, some pencils and spare pastels. Then comes back to hand you one.

"We pick something in the room -in our line of view- to draw, then we each have three chances to guess it right." you bite your lip, smiling.

"Okay. And what if we don't guess right?" he shrugs, a smirk struggling not to appear on his plump lips.

"Then one piece of clothing, of choice, comes off." he replies, "Each. time." you pout, feigning innocence.

"But...it's quite cold. Will we not be cold?"

"Well then let's hope we lose fast, so we can warm each other up." he winks and you giggle like an idiot, because of course that's where he was going.

"Bet"

And the rest is history <3

Just Wanna Get High With My Lover (Gojo Satoru x Reader)

tags: mdni, nsfw, weed obviously, smut, slight dubcon (they are high), y/n is a stoner, afab reader, gojo is so cute omg, gojo is emotional, high sex, slight hurt/comfort near end, petnames, established relationship, not proofread

A/N: I haven't wrote in forever omg 1.8k words

Listen to Moonlight - Kali Uchis trust me bae

You let out a loud huff as you face planted onto your bed. You spread your arms out, finally getting a break after your long day. First you were sent on a mission with your boyfriend, Satoru Gojo, to catch a seemingly easy grade 3 curse, then it turns out there were like 5 more no one knew about. Gojo of course made missions impossibly more annoying by always trying to show off. Sometimes he acted like he was still in middle school trying to impress his crush. After that tiring mission, Gojo wouldnt stop nagging you about this new desert place 30 minutes away. "Baby...they literally have everything sweet in the world. We have to try it, just this once!" What do you do to make a pleading child shut up? You give them what they wanted. That was one of your weaknesses, you couldn't deny Gojo's pretty eyes, and he knew it. After spending almost 2 hours getting sweets, you were finally home.

"This is my bed too, be considerate to your roomies!" You rolled your eyes. "It used to be my bed until someone forced themselves into my dorm." You sat up, opening a drawer next to your bed and pulling out a familiar jar. Now it was his turn to sprawl out on the bed, you scooted to the edge of the bed so he couldnt knock anything over. He watched as you set down your grinder as well, preparing to make the evenings blunt. "Now youre gonna kill me with the fumes, hmph!" He was so overdramatic, you just needed to chill. The first time he complained about you smoking around him, you actually did almost put it out. Geto laughed and told you to ignore him. He and Shoko smoked all the time. Shoko was more cigerettes, whereas Geto was 50/50. You preferred your blunts, and the closest thing to Gojo smoking was him breathing out in the cold winter. You licked the paper before preparing your herbs on it, then rolling. Gojo watched closely, he did every time.

"I don't understand why you're always smoking," You picked your lighter out of your pocket and light the blunt. "I don't always smoke. Plus, it calms me down." Being a student sorcerer was stressful, and dating Gojo was even more stressful. Sativa was the one thing keeping you from going insane sometimes. He watched as you took a hit, like a child seeing a exotic animal for the first time.

"Let me see it," You snorted, then you realized he was serious. "Knock yourself out Satoru..." You handed him the blunt. "How do I do it?"

"Satoru, why do you want to smoke? I thought you were 'too healthy' for that?"

"I want to brag to Suguru, about how I can also smoke 420" That sent you lying on your back on the bed, laughing your ass off. "What?!" He seemed offended.

"There ain't no way you just said that corny shit." You were already laughing like you were 5 blunts in, of course Gojo would say something cringe like that. "Satoru, baby" You looked at him with a straight face before another laughing fit.

"What? Is that not cool to say?"

"Thats just-thats not how thats used babe," You still giggled, sitting back up and seeing he was still holding the blunt with confusion. "Okay, first of all, dont be smoking cause you think you'll be coo-"

"Oh my god, chill out mom, I'm an adult!" You rolled your eyes.

"Whatever, give me." You took it into your fingers and put it to your lips, gently sucking in and letting it sit before breathing out. "Like that," He took it and tried to imitate what you did. After 3 seconds of inhaling, he started coughing. You tried not to laugh, making sure he was okay. He stuck his tongue out. "Bleh! That tastes nasty."

"You wanted to try it." He attempted again, this time getting about 4 or 5 seconds of inhale. He coughed less this time. You two took turns before he laid down with a low moan. "I feel like I'm flying." You were a bit faded too, but his eyes were getting pretty red under his sunglasses. You laughed at his state, never expecting to see the greatest sorcerer like this. He stared at the ceiling while you turned on Jhene Aiko. "Fuck... y/n, i feel so good." He almost moaned. You couldnt deny, you blushed at that. You also couldnt believe how dramatic he was sometimes. He sat up. "And hungry."

"Someone has the munchies," You sang along. He grabbed the bag from the sweet shop earlier and stared eating. One thing you never understood about him was how he could eat any sweets he wanted and still have the most handsome abs in the universe. He always had muscles ever since you known him. And he has never gone a day without a million sweets. Made absolutely zero sense. "You know Shaggy was a stoner." You mumbled, taking another hit and sitting next to him, huddling closer.

"From Scooby Doo?"

"No, from Dora, stupid." He laughed. Normally he wouldve had something witty to say back, but he just laughed like you were Pete Davidson.

"It was so obvious he was smoking, do you remember Mary Jane?"

"Hell yeah, she was 12 year old me's idol."

"Huh, i thought it wouldve been Daphne" He took a hit, starting to get the hang of it. He still coughed almost every time.

"Why?"

"Dunno, she was hot." You shook your head, not even wanting to argue or reason. You watched as he switched from donut to blunt, almost confusing the two time to time. He handed you the blunt and you gradually brought it to your lips, feeling the vibe. "Zoinks! Mary Jane's like my favorite name!" You spit out any smoke you inhaled, coughing whilst bursting out laughing. Not only did he say that out of no where, he did a perfect Shaggy impression, causing you both to throw a laughing fit.

"What the hell is wrong with you Satoru?" You said between coughs before laughing again. Eventually, you both calmed down, staring at each other. You were reminded of what you were daydreaming of earlier, how the hell he kept his muscles. How were they so fine. He read the lustful look in your eyes, then pulled you in for a kiss. The blunt was forgotten on the floor, he climbed on top of you, pinning you down while your hands explored his neck and hair. His hair was so soft. His pace was much quicker than the previous times, his kisses moving down your jaw, then your neck. He hands rushed under your baggy t shirt. "W-wait, Satoru" He looked at you. "You're high...are you-"

"I heard being high during sex feels ten times better."

"But you're not-"

"Y/n, Thats the reason I wanted to get high with you. So Yeah, sober me consents and high me consents. Do you consent?"

"Of course," He went back to kissing down your body. "Plus, you're so gorgeous like this." You scoffed.

"Am I not as gorgeous when youre sober?"

"Eh..." You smacked him on the head gently, making him laugh. He came back up to kiss your lips while smiling. He looked at you, taking off his sunglasses. His shining blue eyes contrasted his reddened sclera. "So fucking beautiful," He mumbled. He couldnt stop kissing you, couldn't get enough. Soon your shirt was gone, then his. Next was your bra. It drove you crazy how he could undo your bra with two fingers in literal seconds. Especially when it took you forever. He played with your tits, praising them before kissing further down your stomach. You giggled, his breath tickling you. Everything was much more sensitive. His hands were in your pants before you knew it. He worked his fingers around your clit, then sliding them down further. He watched as your breath quickened the faster he thrusted his fingers into you. He curls them and you were seeing stars.

"Feel good baby?" You nodded. After three songs by Jhene Aiko in a row, Kali Uchis came on. 'Moonlight' Spotify read.

"Cmon Satoru..." You whined out, making him smirk. His sweatpants were pulled down, and he positioned himself infront of your legs. He wouldn't miss out of teasing you, but it didn't take long for him to be thrusting deep inside you. Both of your moans were much louder than usual. You could already see the noise complaints coming in. He had fucked you high before, considering you were high a lot. But you were never this high, and the high sex was never so sensual. He always held back a little when you've smoked a blunt or joint because he wanted to be the reason youre sensitive out your mind. But now you both were feeling so good. You felt something drip onto your cheek, then your forehead. You looked up in confusion, realizing he was crying. "Toru?" He stared at you, mesmerized. You put your hands on his shoulders in attempt to slow his movements. "Toru, whats wrong?"

"Im so fucking in love with you..." He mumbled, putting his head into your shoulder. You moaned into his ear with each thrust. "You dont even understand...I refall inlove with you every fucking day..." You smiled, kissing his cheek.

"Fuck...Love you so much toru," He cried and moaned into your neck, his face was red. He mumbled sweet words into your ears, professing his love over and over. He came inside you with a loud cry, you followed. "Fuck!" His voice cracked, taking deep breaths.

You two laid there trying to catch your breath, he was still holding onto you tight. As if he let go, you'd disappear. The moment was so intimate, there was basically red leds and roses everywhere. It reminded you of the day you realized you were in love with him. It was on a mission sophomore year, you two were paired up to find a grade 1 curse. When you thought you had got rid of it, it came right at you. Gojo had pushed you out of the way, and fought the curse. There was a moment, and total of 20 seconds where you believed he was dead. In those 20 seconds, a million thoughts and emotions overwhelmed you. Guilt, worry, sadness, anger. But he got up like nothing had happened and laughed at your face. You rolled your eyes, but that night your feelings were abundantly clear. Your worst thought during those 20 seconds was "I never got to tell you how much I loved you". You never thought you would use that word in the same sentence as Gojo, but you did, and you meant it. Maybe in another life, he had actually died. Maybe in this life, you were given another chance. So you made sure you didnt waste that opportunity.

"I love you y/n" He wiped his tears, kissing your cheek over and over. "Youre my everything." You smiled at him, catching him in a kiss.

"Zaza got you emotional, huh?"

"I'm seriously your shaggy, you're my Mary Jane" You snorted at that.

"You don't smoke enough for me, plus im not as hippie as her." You said sarcastically, laying on your side when he pulled out. "Anything else?"

"Morticia and Gomez Adams. Cause I'd kill for you." You giggled, rolling your eyes. "Are you calling me emo?"

"Jeez y/n, just accept my love!" He whined.

"Love you too, 'toru"

Hello lovely Lofty❤️

What would you say is the pros and cons of EMS work?? Or like, things you would say to someone looking to be an EMT?

I have a full time job I don't plan on leaving, but tbh learning about what you do and reading your stories has kind of put it on my heart and I was curious if volunteer EMT jobs are a thing. Like, getting all the training done and then volunteering when I can?

Idk, I was just curious if you had anything to say regarding this😅

I could probably google some of this info but if if you feel like answering it would be appreciated! I value your opinion❤️

Ok, give me just a sec—*SQUEALS excitedly into pillow*

Hello Anon! :D That’s so exciting to hear!! I’m glad you’d rather just do it volunteer, as career EMS pays very little (my nursing job is what keeps a roof over my head, not my EMS one lol), but nearly every agency in my area has volunteers so I imagine it’s the same for your area!

So general pros and cons for EMS:

Pros

Tight knit work crew - These people see some bad things together, and trauma bonding is a thing, so they tend to be pretty close and have a lot of fun together. A note of care, we all have dark senses of humor. It’s a natural coping mechanism for people, and it can make life really funny too. But generally, working with EMS providers is quite fun! There will probably also be things like banquets, cookouts, and other fun bonding activities!

Boo boo bus - Driving is one of my least favorite parts of the job, but it is very fun to drive the truck around with lights and sirens and have the power to stop traffic and go through a red light lol. Super dangerous, but very fun

Knowledge - You learn so much in EMS! Medicine and our understanding of diseases and injuries is constantly changing, so you’ll always learn something new if you keep up with your training. Speaking of which, your agency will provide training opportunities to help you grow!

Patient care - You’ll find that the majority of your calls aren’t actually emergencies, but when you can actually take care of someone who needs you, you’re gonna ride that adrenaline high for ages. I still remember calls from years ago where I actually made a difference in someone’s life, and it’s a thrilling feeling.

Shift style - We work in 12-24 hour blocks, which means you knock out your work week in 2-3 days. As a volunteer your hour requirement would be much less than 36, but you could knock out a 24 hour monthly requirement in a single day if you wanted. Also, depending on a few factors (day vs night shift, busyness of your run area), you could literally just be spending your time chilling between calls. Sometimes I bring video games to work and play the switch because we have so much downtime. At night we get paid to just sleep if nobody’s calling 911.

Cons

Management/staffing - Like most jobs, somehow we’re all cursed with idiots in charge. Obviously this is variable, but a general trend in EMS is to overwork its people and toss them out to sea before they sometimes feel ready. And also like most jobs, we’re perpetually short staffed and everyone gets stretched thin to make up for it. Luckily for you, this shouldn’t be as big a problem because volunteers are usually treated very well!

Patient care - It’s a pro but it’s a con too. 85% of your calls are going to be for things that people should have never called 911 for. Your big pretty Boo Boo Bus is mostly going to be an Uber. And it will get frustrating, and you will have frequent flyers, and some people are not kind at all. They’ll call for your help and then get pissed off at you for trying to help. Anyone who’s worked customer service can relate, I’m sure. You get trained to handle life and death emergencies and then instead you’re picking someone up for a cough they’ve had for three days and you’re wondering when you became their mother/father and have to take the baby to the doctor when they haven’t tried anything to take care of themselves at home or see a less urgent health facility. It will burn you out if you’re not careful.

TMI - Speaking of patient care, get ready to see people at their absolute lowest. Hoarder houses, maggots, abusive households, all that jazz. Another reason for trauma bonding with your coworkers! 👍🏻 (This won’t be the majority of your calls, but you’ll see them)

Physical strain - If you don’t take care of your body, this job will hurt you. I’ve thrown my back three times working EMS; there were times where I was hobbling around like an 83-year-old and I was 22. You’ll be lifting patients of every weight, you’re gonna be contorted in weird positions trying to splint someone, CPR is a cardio exercise in itself (lol), you will probably be sore after some calls like you just went to the gym. Also, we don’t take meal breaks - you eat when you can, and you will become a speed eater very quickly in this line of work.

Mental strain - You’re gonna learn a lot about yourself and others in this work. How do you cope with stress? You will watch people die, you will see suicides and shootings and stabbings, you will watch family hurt each other and grieve over lost loved ones. You will be on edge for the majority of your shift as you wait for the tones to drop, you will be stressed trying to find an address or navigate the road and make sure nobody gets into a wreck with you. Military and first responders are so alike because the stress level and distribution is quite similar - downtime with boredom gets interspersed with spikes of huge adrenaline rushes. Have good coping skills, have a strong support system, take care of yourself. 95% of the people I know on duty are in therapy to stay sane.

Overall, I adore EMS. If I could survive off EMS pay I’d work it full time and do nursing as a side gig for funsies lol. The majority of the work is fairly mundane, but when you get to make a difference boy do you get to make a difference. And you’ll have so many funny stories to share. And the people are awesome.

Hope this helps! :D

Okay but dere HOW DOES HE PROPOSE

Rings are gorgeous btw

(Rings referenced in this ask from this post)

It was a normal day, tbh. No fancy dinner, no pretty views, no bath with roses, no going out for a date or anything.

We had just gotten back from a fantastic week of traveling owo. All the views, wonderful food, and experiencing new things with him happened then :3. In fact, the whole trip was something he surprised me with!

On this day, we were resting to recoup. Absolutely chilling without much plans to go outside. We are just being cozy comfy and spending time doing mundane things. Watching TV, playing games, perhaps ordering in, wearing pajamas and all uwu.

I start binging a show I really like and he's watching with me. At some point Ichi gets eepy. Says he's gonna go take a nap in our room. He knows I'm really into this show now, so he tells me to keep watching and that he can always catch up later. I ask him if he's sure and he insists, so I do. I'm there for the next few hours watching while he sets his plan in motion in the bedroom.

After finishing the first season of this show, I'm getting up from the couch, stretching and going to the kitchen for a drink and to get out some condiments. I had ordered our dinner to be delivered a little while ago. And it should be here soon.

This is when Ichi calls me from our room. I call back and he says he needs me in there for a sec.

I open our door and peek in and don't see him, before fully coming in and looking around with a "where are you?"

And then my eyes fall on the bulletin board/calendar above our desk. Attached to it are a bunch of candid photos of me from our trip that I never even knew he took. They were all beautiful, and it had my heart swelling. There's a sticky note in the middle of them that reads "down here sunshine" (sunshine being his main pet name for me) with an arrow pointing down to the desk.

And following that arrow down I see an envelope with a pink wax seal of a cherry blossom. It's sitting between two (fake) water lillies, and there's a few chocolates strewn about.

Slowly I take the letter and open it, tears springing in my eyes already after the first few lines. By the end of the most heartfelt letter I had ever read, detailing everything he loved about me and how much I had changed his life, I was a sniffling wet cheeked mess.

I set the letter down and turn around to look for him, seeing him leaning against the doorway to our en suite bathroom (where he was hiding when I came in).

He smiles softly when he sees the way I look at him.

I can't help but ask in the tiniest voice if he really meant all that in the letter.

And his smile grows with a bit of a knowing chuckle as he makes his way toward me, telling me of course he does.

He comes and holds my hands and tells me I'm everything to him.

"And there's something else..."

He lets go and takes a step back before kneeling on one knee before my very eyes and I am releasing the sobs I was holding in as I read that letter with an "Oh my god."

He tells me he really is his happiest with me and that he couldn't imagine a life going forward without me before pulling out the black box and opening it to showcase this ring:

"Would you do me the honor of being my wife? Will you marry me?"

And of course I am absolutely saying yes with my whole DDD chest, snotty nosed and all lol.

He puts the ring on me then we are embracing.

And after I've calmed down a little and have gotten cleaned up, he also lets me know he ordered us dessert too, to celebrate. One of these strawberry pizzas (I've heard they're so good from a place nearby irl but haven't gotten a chance to try one yet rip).

Seeing it once it was delivered almost had me crying again <3333333

He is truly the best man, lover, fiancé, and hubby ever 🥺🩷🩷🩷🩷

And he showed me that again when we made love that night 🫶🏾.

Thank you for asking Kitten! Writing this made me so so so happy 🥹💜💜💜💜💜.

MHA BOYS AS BOYFRIENDS PART 2

Headcannons - sfw - I'll to keep it gn but fem pronouns may be used

Characters: Eijro Kirishima, Denki Kaminari

Warnings: Stupidity and not proof-read

(part 2)

Eijro Kirishima

He made the first move

He asked you out the most cliche way possible but your heart melted anyways

He wrote you a love poem (with the help of the lord of darkness and shadows), bought you bouquet of your favorite flowers and a bunch of snacks

oh, and to complete the cliche, he confessed to you on valentines day... right in front of your dorm.... while the girls were having a sleepover in your room...

Safe to say everyone heard the news in less than 2 seconds and mina (dont we all love her?) got it all on video

"Y/n, I'm in love with you, can I be yours?"

"Mina! Play that part again!"

"Y/n... you've been listening to the recording for the past 2 hours"

Kirishima is the literal definition of boyfriend material

Oh? Your back aches? Time for a spy day for the literal angel that bless the earth!

You had a nightmare and texted him at 3 am? He'll be there in 10 secs with his hoodie for you to wear and a bunch of plushies

He trys to cook for you, it's so cute! He ended up burning half the kitchen whilst bakugou yelling curses,,, but hey! It's the thought that counts

He's all for that PDA: Holding hands, an arm around your waist, not so secretive pecks on your nose- he just loves giving you attention

Not exactly the jealous type because he knows you can handle yourself (since you're super manly and strong ofc)

But he won't hesitate to step in as soon as you need him to, giving the person a passive agressive smile and an excuse the get the hell away from them with you in hand

"We're such a manly couple! Nothing can beat us!"

Kirishima LOVES training and working out with you,, he doesn't mind taking you to the gym for a date

don't worry, he does take you on real, romantic dates

you both often go to the arcade, town festivals, and picnics

When his hair grows out and his roots start to show, he comes to you to re-dye and cut it for him

spy days and movie nights

He usually keeps his cool around you, but sometimes he turns into a mess when you something -particularly- provoking

"Pebble! Look here! I found a ladybug!"

"Oh my god! let's adopt it as our child!"

Denki Kaminari

he confessed first... on accident

He and the bakusquad were hanging out in the common room, playing super smash bros (the only thing he can beat bakugou in, but you didn't hear that from me) when he started going on a rant of how perfect and hot you are

oh but of course you were literally standing right behind him as he went on and onnnn

"Y/n, she's just perfect! I'd do anything to score her, I'd never flirt with another chick again! Just imagine how our wedding would be: super fancy and expensive and-"

"I would prefer an outdoor wedding, what do you think?"

"Oh yes yes, I ca- Wait! Y/n?? H-how long have you been standing there??"

He was so over the top when you both just got into the relationship: constantly texting you, showering you with gifts and affection, wanting to spend every sec with you

But once you've both become more comfortable- nothing has changed, and I mean, you aren't complaining at all

kaminari's so touchy-feely and clingly and love-y and you absolutely adore it

he basically begged bakugou to accept you in his little friend group

"Gimme all your love and attention y/nnnnn"

you both love to play minecraft, watch youtube vids and listen to music together

chill evenings with him >>>>

he's definitely more of himself around you, but also allows himself to share some of his personal problems with you

you guys talk about mental illness and comfort each other when having a bad day

all being said, you get to see a side of him that no one knew existed

he's defiantly the PDA kind of guy

He'll shamelessly fawn over you in public, grabbing onto your waist, nose and forehead kisses and constantly clingly on to you- he always makes sure that you're comfy with that tho!

He's for sure the jealous type

he'll hold to you any way he could, whether that's holding on to the hem of your sweater or locking pinkies, he wants to feel secured when you're talking to a sus stranger

but, when the person seems to get to personal...

"Hey there, stupid-face! I know my partner is super hot and is a literal angel, but she's taken! Shoo now!"

arcade dates, random parking lots, and fast food places and connivence stores at midnight

[exploringme2022]

He is fucking lying peice of shit, he lies in every sentence to everyone, he potrays himself as a victim always literally always so everyone feels sorry for him, once again I got into same trap , even talking to him as stranger that he is the victim , everyone did wrong to him, he is very lonely and stuff, i start feeling sorry for him, like I did wrong to him, but the fact is he didn't realised his mistake a bit playing with 2 woman at a time, lying to 2 woman at a time, basically using 2 woman for his own thril, cheating on 2 women's, hurting me and started cheating on me in March, have no sympathy or empathy for me, whatever good i think of him is completely wrong, while he was feeling thrill he didn't have to hurt me, lie to me, or keep using me at my worst but he did, he didn't even keep my respect or dignity or consider me as human being, 5 years I was with him, and he didn't even care about me for a sec, he is fucking selfish person and always been, he always think of himself and has always been, why the fuck I have adjusted so much for him because I always felt sorry for the guy. He doesn't have money so can't go out, he doesn't want this so can't do this or that, why didn't I demand what I wanted... Well fuck off I was okay 😂😂, I was okay and alive without him and I will be okay and alive without him... But I will always regret that our paths has crossed and will always regret trusting you blindly, even though I told him i can't trust anyone again but he said he will never break my trust but he shattered, i regret trusting someone again, i don't care if someone loves me or not I need to find love within myself, I need to learn for not trusting anyone anymore or giving someone power to disturb my mental peace again, and I forgive myself for trusting him, or finding love where respect has not been served or the person who always lives in his past, and I don't want him anymore, first of all he didn't realised his mistake ulta he realised I don't deserve him😂😂, ok i seriously don't deserve this guy or any woman , who doesn't know how to respect woman, gf, sis or mother, second he still loves her like deep water as deep shit good for him he deserve e and he just did like and doesn't love me or miss me anymore and moved on, he still wants to spend time with her, well she is his karma, and he lives in past, he wants her more than me and he doesn't like to go out Netflix and chill or cooking at home, boring, no personal life, and he chooses pain over happiness and past over present... Bullshit, well he thought Anusha came to rescue but not again, because whoever comes in his life give him immense amount of love or anything he will die for that Randi only, so go deal with it , because this is the first someone showed you the mirror, and he thinks there are plenty of options out there easy to fall in love, then go find one or in your case go find someone ruin their life and again go fall in randi's trap or let someone use you... Well it was for fact that you don't deserve me and you never did, you don't deserve loyalty and honesty, you deserve a person who treats you like a shit.. good for you, and I am happy you are not part of my life anymore, talking to you as a stranger made me feel anxious, if I talk like shefali then i will have anxiety agains, i can't forget what I have been through, i accept all these things and let you go in peace,

I can't deny I loved you and cared for you, and you get what you deserve, and shall be able to pass this loneliness phase of yours, and I did what I had to do to save you from toxic situation that can cause your life, but you're life is not in my hand it's in hand of God, but I wish you to survive come out as stronger and good person and value what you have instead of running what is not worth your time and be happy and live your life again and be better version of yourself, i let you go in peace...and i wish our paths should never cross again, i hate it that someone whom I consider so much in my life and gave so much power turned out to be biggest lesson of my life..

[thispabulum-blog]

Oh, Hello!

What's the Tea? Tuesday

Alright, it's been a while since we've talked.

Basically, my living situation was a little lot hectic and I needed some time to get things settled.

Things are...more or less settled! The intervening time was not that interesting on the dating front, because I was more focused on all the chaos, but we'll run through where we're at.

Cuddlebug and I are doing great! As he was getting ready to move out of his house in August, he asked how I'd feel about moving into an apartment with him, and I was surprised to find I was happy and excited about the idea. So we're doing that now! Expect some posts about the cohabiting process.

Space Kitten has moved away, to be closer to their primary partner and her husband. We still talk, though I miss them dearly.

Aquaman has gotten back together with his ex. I'm not happy about it, he's not happy about it, I'm not even sure his ex is happy about it. But a condition of that happening is that he's not allowed to talk to other girls anymore, so...

Item 9 is wonderful! We've had a few 3-person dates with Cuddlebug that have been chill and fun and cuddly, and he was nice enough to offer to help us move (he did not end up doing that, but we don't hold it against him). Recently he came over on Friday after work, and we just cuddled and watched Star Trek and ate pizza. An excellent way to spend an evening, in any case.

Cuddlebug and I had our first date with someone new, Chex Mix, a month or two ago, and I'll talk about that next week because it's its own story. It wasn't bad, per se, but it was...weird.

Dr. Strangelove and I are continuing the friend thing. He took me out to dinner for my birthday and got me a present, and we've gotten together a couple times to pass the dog back and forth.

I still talk to Deep Dish sporadically, we just haven't worked out a time to get together. He's cute, but busy being a single dad with two very young kids, so that's fine.

I started talking to someone very recently...gimme just a sec to come up with a nickname for him...Obi Wan.

But we'll get to that in a bit.

So anyway.

What's happened with Cuddlebug since August?

He's still the cutest, sweetest, dumbest boy in all the land.

Uhhh...We finished Better Call Saul (excellent!), have watched two animes (Kaiji: Ultimate Survivor and Castlevania), have gotten through the two extant seasons of The Witcher, and got halfway into the second season of What We Do in the Shadows before he got bored with it. We've watched more movies than I can count. He's seen several seasons of Frasier that I was watching on the tv while he played video games at our old place.

We've eaten a million burgers, thousands of crackers, half a ton of popcorn, many sandwiches, a bunch of pizza, and not nearly enough pasta.

He's started playing Magic the Gathering in a semi-serious way, and is hoping to do more with it this year. I have vowed to be Cute Cheerleader Girlfriend for him in whatever capacity I can.

We had both of our birthdays and also Christmas, which were very sweet despite being not as big as we'd hoped because of money and stuff.

We went to visit Mama Bug for Thanksgiving. It was a nice time, and I like her more all the time. She and I conspired to buy Cuddlebug new clothes, I got to cook for her, and I made a truly excellent tres leches cake that was raved over by all.

And something interesting happened.

I've often been surprised and impressed by how Cuddlebug handles my anxiety. For someone who doesn't seem to have ever been afflicted with it, he does such an incredibly great job. He's calm, reassuring, and always asks what's needed of him. He tells me not to worry about things, because "worrying isn't a Pretty Girl job" (easier said than done, but I appreciate the sentiment). He doesn't take it personally when I'm irritable, he doesn't match my energy or escalate, he doesn't mind giving me space, and he doesn't let me apologize for getting overwhelmed, because "I can't help the way my brain is".

But then we were at Mama Bug's, and as it turns out she's got the Anxiety BrainTM, for sure. She's asking him question after question about our living situation and jobs and everything, and he's trying to reassure her that he's handling it. It was like Ohhhhh, now I get it; he's been doing this for a long time.

And it made me think about how with the Anxiety BrainTM, it's like whenever there's a problem or a decision, it branches out like a big dead tree in all sorts of directions at once, trying to think about and play out all the different possibilities and consequences - which is stressful and exhausting. But his brain is more like...a rat in a maze. He goes in one direction until he hits a wall, and then he turns around and finds a different way. It's a very different way of existing, but it seems to work for him.

Couldn't be me.

The whole way driving home from Thanksgiving (4+ hours), we talked. Good car-talking, the kind I love. Mostly about the future and things we want to do, long-term goals and stuff.

I told him about some of my plans and how it was always weird with Dr. Strangelove because whenever I'd fantasize about my future, I could never figure out what to do with him in it. It was this confusing situation where he had taken me out of the fun poly-dating space I was in, and I thought Okay, I guess I can settle down and do the domestic thing, but then he also didn't want to get married and have kids, so it left us/me in this uncomfortable limbo. Like, I'm giving up this lifestyle that I enjoy, but what am I getting in return?

And looking forward, there wasn't really a place for him. There were plenty of things in my imagined future that involved being with other men, or just doing things/going places that he'd never have gone along with.

But with Cuddlebug, he's down for pretty much anything. He's genuinely happy seeing me happy, and I can't imagine him ever standing in the way of something I wanted without a really good reason. In talking about the things I want to do with my life, he was so sweet and supportive and excited for me, and impressed with how much thought and research I've put into everything. He offered his help in different ways, and reassured me that he was totally comfortable with me taking risks to do the things I'm passionate about.

What a cute boy.

After Thanksgiving, we lived in a hotel for a few weeks, which was quite the adventure. Then we moved into an apartment! Slowly, gradually, things are coming together.

It's been a month since we moved in here, and I really enjoy it. I'll talk some more about that on Thursday.

Please don't make me move again anytime soon. I'm so tired of carrying shit.

Back to our new friend Obi Wan! I met him on Hinge, surprisingly enough.

He's a cute guy, (enby, he/him/they/them) younger than me, poly & married. We had a good conversation about how he and his spouse tried poly a few years ago and had some trouble with it, so they worked on themselves and their relationship and went back to it when they were ready.

I felt some really good chemistry with him right off the bat - lots of long messages, easy conversation, no unwanted sexual advances. We made a date to hit up the arcade on Sunday.

He texted me a few times about worrying what he was going to wear, which is pretty cute. Cuddlebug was nice enough to drive me and get me all hyped up.

It was a pretty short date, by my standards - about 3 hours. We played some games together and a few near each other.

I beat a small child at a fighting game so hard that he rage quit, which is possibly one of the highlights of my adult life.

We were able to have some good conversation, even with the music and all the noise. He called me cute, called me stunning, told me he liked my hair and my dress and my nails. Mistook me for being 4 years younger than him (when in fact I'm 5 years older). Beat me at Primal Rage and Skee Ball and Star Wars pinball, and pretty much everything we played except Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow Over Mystara.

He's competitive, loves to argue about religion and politics, is passionate about LGBT issues, drives a cool car, makes dad jokes, speaks three languages, and looks super cute in fishnet stockings. Cuddlebug is very intrigued.

After a while we went and sat outside on the patio to drink some water (and he could vape), and we were able to have good talks then, too. Found out we both own Chewbacca onesies, which is always great.

He had to wake up early for work Monday, so I let him drive me home, and he said hi to Cuddlebug at the door. We've talked about hanging out this week, just him coming over to play board games and maybe cuddle and watch something. That is potentially happening on Thursday. I'll let you know how it goes.

That's all for now! Tomorrow we can look at some of the more entertaining garbage I've seen on dating apps since August.

eggs and other love stuff // 卵や他の愛のもの [summer collection: vol 1]

timeskip! sakusa kiyoomi x f! reader

genre: fluff

summary: your high school friend/crush moves in next door!

note: first of the summer collection even if it doesn't really have summery vibes bc i said so >:( also i have a slight affinity for naming fics w sakusa food-related

you don't expect to see him here. in this place. at this time.

you soak deeper into the bath, head submerging underwater as you let the warmth of the water engulf you. a slight ringing in your ear, only amplifying the thoughts that fill your head.

you reminisce the time, the early evening sky soaked orange, as you call him into an empty classroom, arms outstretched and in your hands, a letter with your heart poured out, and a bag of cookies you spent all night burning and remaking.

you notice him eyeing the little plaster on your pinky, and you make an effort to draw his attention back to you. "kiyoomi, i've liked you for a long time now..." you pause, his face is unreadable, but at least it hasn't contorted into a scowl. "i just hope you'll accept them."

sakusa does nothing but nod, a satisfactory response, he takes both in one hand and walks away, but not the response you wanted.

you were third years then, with much more important things to worry about, perhaps thats why you still thought about it so often, about him so often, wondering what it meant, what it could've been. you pushed against the sides of the tub, pulling your body out even as the water resisted it, goosebumps rising at the sudden coldness of the air.

you hear the doorbell ring and sigh, wrapping a towel around yourself, you trudge to the door, annoyed.

"it's me." you freeze. "kiyoomi."

"b-be right there, what do you need?" you shout at door, scrambling to your dresser to throw some clothes on.

"i um, i need some eggs," you could almost sense the slight hesitation in his muffled voice.

"alright i'll be a sec!"

you finally open the door, the sudden wind minty on your freshly damp hair, you're met with the same dark eyes that always held your gaze captive, the same mask he had always adorned and hands stuffed into the pockets of his shorts- the only notable difference you thought, but it was summer now, he couldn't always wear a jacket.

"eggs right?" you call out leading him into the cramped kitchen area of your tiny studio apartment. you crouch down and open the door to the mini fridge, the cold blue light reflecting in your face as you reach in and pick out a few, "how many do you need?"

"actually...i couldn't get my stove to work, i was wondering if you're okay with me cooking here tonight." he peered down at you still crouching, his face as unreadable as always.

"sure, anything for an old friend." you swore you saw his eyebrow twitch, "but you'll have to make me some too," you said cheerily.

he rolled his eyes in feigned ignorance, smiling under the comfort of his mask, "we'll be having tamagoyaki," he paused as he plopped a heavy bag of something on your counter, "and mackerel."

"gasp kiyoomi, you know i never eat fish," you pout.

his arms crossed, "it's good for you, and you'll like the way i make it," because i've made this recipe a hundred times pretending it was for you, he thought, smiling again before playfully calling you over, "don't think you're getting off little brat, whip the eggs."

and just like that you guys fell into an easy rhythm as if you were never apart.

that was 3 months ago, your little late dinner rendevous became a daily occurence, and soon enough,

 in your balcony that was definitely too small for even two standing people, orange rays illuminating his curls, his face bathed in that sunset glow, he handed you his letter which contents' held his whole heart, and cookies he spent all night making, you eyed the small plaster on his pinky and raised a brow. "just to show you i remember," he explained, you smile, "y/n i've liked you for a long time now, i just hope you'll accept me."

"do you wanna know a secret?" omi whispered as you peered up at him, tucked under some blankets, cuddled in each other's embrace, the muted voices of some tv show filling the backdrop of your attention.

"sure omi."

"i had eggs that day, 2 full trays too," he looks straight into your eyes, no sense of guilt in his voice.

"you..." you pout.

"my stove was perfectly fine, perfect even. just needed a reason to see you again, you were always on my mind...plagued every part of me y/n."

"are you calling me a virus?" you pouted again this time he brushed his thumb over your chin, soon both hands caressing your cheeks as he took your lips in his, a long stretch of silence followed, only the soft sounds of some audience laughter and the two of you. you push against his chest a little, pulling away, once again finding yourself lost in the stars of his eyes, "and it never felt like home without you omi."

"but also you owe me a bunch of eggs."

he laughs kissing your nose and pinching your cheek, "and i'll spend the rest of my life paying you back."

sol’s comments: tonight was so nice and chill u guys, i swear i was in the flow for a solid 4 hours just getting stuff done <3 also i'm taking requests now but i'll probably put up the rules tmr since it's getting late :> hope yall have a great day or night or whatever besties 🥴💗

How do you think lin and toph would act around su when they bring her home for the first time? Would lin be careful and gentle, or would she just play and be rough with the new baby bc she doesn't know that babies need to be handled with care? would she be fascinated by her baby sis and spend time staring at her new sister or would she just be like "eh, i've seen enough". How would toph handle bringing su home for the first time + the first couple of days? Sorry for the huge load of questions 😅

Hi Anon, thank you for the ask, and your patience! Happy to chat about the lovely Beifong family. :)

So with baby Su finally coming home and Toph and Lin interacting with her...

I'd say that Toph tries to be pretty chill with her newborn. She tries to tend to her needs, whether it be rocking her to sleep or holding her when she's fussy, she's pretty much there in a second. This is partly because she doesn't want her baby to be upset, but also because she's on maternity leave and she's a little bored, so doing something is better than nothing LOL.

Lin is a very curious big sister. She's pretty aware of how Toph treats Su differently, how she's gentle and sweet with her, even when she's being "bad". So, Lin tries to follow her mother's footsteps and is sweet with her baby sister and is careful when she holds her. Sometimes she forgets that Su is just a baby and perhaps tosses something close in Su's direction and that's when Toph reminds Lin to be a little more careful.

I don't think Lin ever gets tired of her baby sister (she's pretty cute, after all), but she does get annoyed with all the screaming and crying at night. That she could live without, and when she tells that to Toph, Toph just chuckles and says, "Yep. I could do without the screaming too, kiddo." Perhaps it becomes an inside joke for them, too! Whenever Su does something that both Toph and Lin agree is annoying or exasperating, they just say "I could do without ___" and then they giggle.

Otherwise, I think Lin's interest toward Su stays relatively the same, mostly because her mother is really good about explaining things to Lin so that she can understand why something's happening or why Toph is doing a certain thing. Of course, if the topic is for when Linny is older, Toph makes a joke out of it and then changes the subject pretty quickly. But because Toph explains the basics of babies to Lin, her interest is always piqued because there's always something to learn about babies, even if you learned about them haha!

As for when they bring baby Su home, I feel like it's a rather anticlimactic day. They were all prepared and anticipating the day Suyin was born, and then when she's finally here and they get to go home, It's kind of like "Okay. The excitement is settled down. Time to sit."

Except, of course, Toph is taking care of two kiddos so there's not much time to sit LOL.

I think that Toph would have company over for the first few days after Su gets to go home, and they mainly are there to help manage the business of two kids over one. If Toph is trying to take care of Su, she usually asks her friend(s) to watch Lin to make sure she's okay. If Toph needs off baby duty for a hot sec, she'll go out in the yard with Linny and they'll toss some rocks around the yard together.

Toph is also just trying to adjust to that random newborn schedule. So she's running on low sleep for a few months (that's where having friends in the area is helpful if she needs a quick nap during the day lol).

The excitement of a new member in the family being in the house probably wears off after a couple weeks, and Toph and the girls learn to find a groove in the midst of the chaos lol. But once everything is settled, it leaves for many a fluffy and cute moments for Toph to bond with her baby girls :')

Okay! I think that's all I have for right now. Thank you again for the ask, Anon (and thank you so much for your patience my apologies for the delay on this one ope). Feel free to stop by if you wanna chat some more, and I hope you have a great day!

......

Send me asks about ATLA, LOK, or anything, really! :D

Short Stories:

Dumbness of Darkness-Gregory

Featuring Ellen by @multydoodles , Leroy Flynn, Tiam Kome, Yaeko by @sakurablossoms10 and Rubina

(Notes Gregory really needs more ships and friendships... But also more Flirt restraint. )

A true friend:

Given Gregory and Flynn didn't really have Family to depend on, given they are Not Close to their Foster Families and Ellens Family is Chaotic, Leroy invited His Friends Home to him, given His mother Made Lots of treats days before Christmas to snack on and make fun of Movies.

Flynn and Leroy had their usual squabbles and discussed Things among them while Greg reserved the Couch and Ellen chilled next to him.

"Hey... That might sound a Bit dumb, but I am glad you are a friend of mine Ellen, ya hear."

Ellen giggled.

"Yeah it kinda doesn't sound like you. But why that?"

"The last time I had a Girl who is nice to me without wanting something Back or trying to fool me was Suzy, my caretaker. Aside that I either got rejected because of my Flirts or Just treated like I was nothing. And Heck even my Fans mostly want me for my Fame... Nothing more... I feel with you I can Talk about anything, maybe even more than Leroy and Flynn sometimes... So I at least wanted to thank you."

"Greg... Don't worry, I got your Back."

"And I got yours Bro... Sis. I dunno. Ellen."

"I demand this Movie First." Flynn took Out a DVD from the shelf and Put it in the Player.

"Flynn come on, you didn't even let us Vote it Out." Leroy looked a Bit annoyed.

Ellen stood Up.

"How about we each Chose one and watch them in Order?"

Greg nodded.

"I demand a Horror Christmas movie after."

Leroy started to laugh.

"Horror Christmas? Sounds great to make fun of."

And so they chatted, ate snacks, Flynn talked Into the important scenes, Greg accidently spoiled stuff and Ellen shared a blanket with Leroy, Well Leroys legs given the Rest was already heated.

Genuine interest:

"I can't allow that."

"Come on Kome... I mean it with Tiam... I Like him... Can you at least as a sibling figure to him give me a Chance."

She glarred daggers on him.

"I have one Condition... We make it a Double date so I get to watch you."

"Depends on If you have someone for the Date."

She punched him in the stomach.

"Ouch."

"Don't worry... I'll get someone..."

And so at Night they met at a Restaurant Handpicked by Kome. Tiam in a bit more nicer Look, Kome in a White Dress while Yaeko next to her wears a Mint Dress. Gregory knew Kome wanted to fool him given she Had to chose a fancy Restaurant, knowing He has no real Table manners.

They talked why Greg tried to slowly do His best to survive while Kome asked him questions.

After a while Tiam spoke Up.

"H-Hey Kome... I do am glad you try to Take Care of Me... B-But I am fine... And you also wanted to spend some time with Yaeko too, isn't it better we Split Up Here."

"I...."

She looked at Yaeko who seemed a Bit lost. He was right, she was so focused on getting things Out of Greg that she forgot about her own Date.

"Yaeko-chan... I am sorry... I neglected you a Bit. How about We Go now Where you want to."

"Its fine Kome-san. Its good to See you Take Care so much of your friend."

"No can do, I want this to be a fun day for you, lets Dance together."

And so they left leaving Tiam and Greg to Go Outside in the courtyard.

"Sorry... I really was Happy you asked me Greg, but I k-know how protective she can be."

"I survived didn't I..."

He sighed.

"I actually wanted to thank you for Always patching me Up, ya know... And also I really do took a liking to you... It might seem I only Flirt around but that is because I Hope to find a Person for me... Which is why I also wanted this Date to prove it..."

"I... didn't think a-anyone would Take interest in me... So thank you..."

A rare Smile glanced on Tiams face as Greg offered His Hand.

The inner Darkness:

"Ey Ruby... Do you have a sec?"

"I do Hope its not about Flynn..."

"Actually its more about that Thing that happens to you when you are in a Fight? Does it make ya stronger? Or is it Just Motivation."

"You probably wouldn't understand it."

"Man you are no fun..."

She looked Back at him.

"That Stone on your chest... Maybe you can Tell me about it and I Share my Info."

"Aight, Sounds fine."

They both sit down on the nearby Couch.

"Does children of Darkness Sound familiar to you?"

Ruby gulped.

"Yes..."

"A Doctor came by... Saying I was one of them... After I blackes out I suddenly Had this gem in my chest and my previous dark Magic was lightly surpressed."

"Do you know how this doctor looked Like?"

Greg nodded.

"Silver Hair in all directions.... Glasses, weird moustache... And a X scar on His face."

"It really is him.... "

"You know him?"

"My sister Had probably the Same surgery as you... She just couldn't Take it Well... And died in my Arms..."

Greg slammed His Fist on the Table.

"That bastard. I don't understand what He does but If it Ends Up with us being more in pain or die Like your sister.... Its Hell. And that only because of some rumors of children of Darkness being Dangerous..."

He visibly seemed angry, Rubina put a Hand on His shoulder.

"I reserached it... If a child of darkness doesn't learn their Powers and Turns old, they become a feral Creature.... However this surgery is as you say Not the cure... I try to investigate this Case for a while and find evidence to make this Scientist who plays more with the Powers than find a actual cure pay."

Greg stood Up abruptly and Put both His Hands on her shoulders.

"Can I Help you? I wanna get back on that Bastard who took my caregiver away from me and did this too me."

Rubina looked down and pushed His Hands away from her.

"Its Not that easy. All I ask you ist not to try to remove that Crystal at all... Or you might end Up Like my sister... She Is now forgotten but her Soul lives with me... Which is why I Look Like that in Combat."

"I s-see... Argh this is hurting my head... I leave it to you Ruby, but call me If you need me. I want this Bastard to be punished."

"I never thought we would have the Same Goal.... Don't Tell Flynn alright..."

"Gotcha, but I can't Promise that I won't let it Slip by accident."

She sighed.

"Just be carefull, Dumbass."

At The Studio with (Sik-K) AMBW

𝐂𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐲'𝐬 𝐏𝐎𝐕

Being wrapped up in a fuzzy cover with shaved legs and no pants on is amazing. I grabbed my glass of red wine that was on the nightstand next to me and took a sip of it as I read through some pages of "The Sun is Also a Star." This is how every Friday night would be. At home chilling alone until my boyfriend Kwon Min-sik (also known as Sik-k) would come from the studio and spend the rest of the night with me. He's a Korean rapper and is blowing up by the second. That's why I understand the late nights, the photoshoots, the paparazzi, and the concerts.

But most of all 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠.

I have a love-hate with touring because I hate it when he would go but I also love it because he's doing it for the fans. They are so loving and supportive of him especially with me. Once the news got out that Korean rapper, Sik-k was dating a black girl some people were disgusted and not impressed with us. But his fans would go at it with anyone on social media who would say anything that wasn't right to me. I got to admit, I love it when they do that. But Sik-k one time went on his Instagram live and kissed me on camera just to show the haters that he doesn't care about what they say he will still be with me anyways.

Kwon was always like this with me and that's what I love about him. He is bold, handsome, smart, loving, caring, and did I already say handsome?

Speaking of him, my phone started to vibrate and I saw that it was Sik-k calling me. Why was he calling me in the middle of the night?

"Hello?" I answered the phone.

"Hey, baby. I need your help with something," He says on the other line.

"Why? Is there something wrong?" I put the wine glass down on my nightstand.

"No..well, yeah. It's not something serious but it is important. You know how I am when it comes to my music," He says and I nodded as if he was here in front of me.

"Yeah, so what do you need help with?" I asked.

"With a song, I am working on. I've been trying to find the right words to say but it's coming out the wrong way and you know you're my inspiration now for songwriting. So, I need you to-

"Come over there?" I finished his sentence, already understanding the situation.

"Yeah, that would be so nice. I know you are getting out of your comfort zone and everything." I could hear how sorry he was.

"No, it's fine, baby. I will be there in a sec," I took the covers off of me and threw on some white sweatpants.

"Thank you so much, Cindy. Call me when you get here," He says before hanging up the phone.

I got up from the bed completely and drunk the rest of my wine before getting dressed into a black crop top and Kwon's jean jacket. It looked oversized on me but I still looked cute. I put on white and grey sneakers before going into the bathroom mirror to check my hair. I had knotless medium braids in so I didn't need to do much with them but I did fix my edges a little bit before walking out of the bathroom. I grabbed my phone and keys before heading out of the house.

The studio was literally ten minutes away from our house but the way I drive I will get there in five minutes. I applied lip gloss while I drove on the streets of South Korea and played some of his songs to get me in the mood for studio time. I was a singer myself but didn't start making music until now. And our fans want us to collaborate with each other, which I find cute. Once I pulled up to the studio, I called Sik-k and he picked up immediately.

"Hey, Cindyyyy. Are you here?"

"Yes, bighead. Open the door for me," I heard him chuckle then scrabbling. It sounded he was walking then he hung up.

Once I parked our 2018 Mythos Black Metallic Audi S4 in the parking lot, I came out and walked towards the building. As I kept walking, I saw Sik-k holding the door for me. He was wearing white sweatpants and a black shirt, the same as me. But the only thing he was wearing different from me was his white jacket and he had on a black beanie.

"Hey, boo," I said once I got in the building with him.

"Hey, sweetcakes." He says before kissing me on the lips. I felt his hand go down to my butt and gave it a light squeeze.

"Sik-k, stop!" I hit his chest playfully causing him to laugh. "Not in public." We started to walk down the halls.

"There is no one around," He did a whole 360 on me and I laughed while shaking my head.

𝐇𝐞'𝐬 𝐬𝐨 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐟𝐲.

"Not even Jay Park, he's a busy man," I asked curiously as we walked into the neon studio. He sits down on a chair in front of the sound booth.

"Not even him, it's just us." He smiled widely as I sat down on his lap.

"Okay, soooo. What did you need help with?" He wrapped his arms around my midsection as I got comfortable with him.

"Well, the lyrics. I need it to sound romantic because it is a love song and it goes perfectly with the beat."

"You wanna hear it? He asks and I nod before he pressed play on a red button.

The music filled the studio and I nodded my head to the beat. This instrumental had Sik-k written all over it and I loved it. Kwon looked at me the entire time with a smile on his face as I listened to the song and I was mentally smiling.

"I am doing this song with Ph-1 and HAON." He paused the song and I nodded.

"Okay, what do you like to do with me?" I got up from his lap and sat on the other chair next to him.

"Make love?" He smudges. I threw the small pillow behind me that was on the chair to help with back supports at him and he laughed.

"Umm...I like to watch movies with you. I like it when you wear my clothes, like how you are doing now." He smiles at me.

"Yeah, what else?"

"Yeah, I really like the way you dress. Let's start with that." He says before grabbing a pen and writing it down on his cute black notebook that he likes to write his songs in.

"Okay, I will record this." He stands up from the chair. "Then you tell me how it sounds once I am done," He walks into the sound booth and tells me to play the instrumental.

생각만 해보고 있어 beach house La pam-pam-pam, 바다 바람 따닥거려 장작 불에 멍 넌 눈에 넣어도 안 아프니깐 내 눈에 넣어 내 폰 사진첩에 살고 있어 넌 왜 받아야 돼 월세, 쭈욱 살고 있어봐 원한다면 천생 둘이 시작하기 딱인 Feng Shui

Baby 나라를 골라 pick one 2주만 보내고 오자 Week 1, 맛있는 술 마셔 Week 2, new outfit 사러 Nike and all designer My drip wetty, wetty, wetty, wet, wet 내 stance daddy, daddy, daddy bad See me, run it up, see me, f$ck it up 얼른, hurry up, hurry up, yeah

As he went on I sat back into the chair and just enjoy the view of a beautiful man rapping lyrics to a beautiful instrumental, that was probably going to be about me. Even though Sik-k and I have been together for three years, he still gives me goosebumps every time he performs or writes music in front of me. I don't think I will ever get used to it.

"Okay, I am done." I heard him say causing me to pause the instrumental. He walks out of the sound booth and sits next to me again.

"So, how did it sound?" He asks nervously and I smiled at him.

"I don't know. You tell me," I said before I pressed play on the song and his voice came into the speakers. I turned to him and saw that he was bobbing his head which meant that he was enjoying himself. I loved seeing him happy and being able to be comfortable with me.

"Yes!" He gets up from the chair and picks me up surprisingly. I wrapped my legs around his waist as he spun us around in the studio. "Thank you so much, baby."

I kissed him on the lips and he put me down on the black couch that was behind us. We continued to kiss passionately as he hovered over me but someone knocked on the door causing us to look. We saw Jay Park standing by the door, looking at us with a smirk on his face.

"Hey, kids. We just got that couch so don't ruin them, okay?" He says before laughing and we joined him. When our laughter died down, Jay came inside and took a pen.

"We ran out of pens from my side," He says while walking to the door. "Peace out." Jay closes the door behind him and I straighten myself on the couch.

"I thought you told me that he wasn't here," I crossed my arms at Sik-k and he shrugs like the goof that he is.

"My bad." He said before we started to make out on the couch again.

Jimmy: might be but it should be just as obvious that I wanna hear it Janis: how badly I want some alone time with you just increased Jimmy: 🚬? Janis: worth a go Jimmy: [do your best to try and escape lads] Janis: [probably enough into our hot chocolate/festive film to give you a few minutes here] Jimmy: [take your chance and leg it] Janis: [lord knows you need the moment Jimmy: [it's deserved you didn't know you'd still be here with all these kids and no privacy whatsoever] Janis: [what a time, at least you don't have to go home and separate 'cos heaven forbid] Jimmy: [that would suck, the time between boxing day and nye is weird enough if you like your fam and aren't a highkey teen in love so] Janis: [hence 'I missed you' like you've not spent forever together at this point and barely been apart] Jimmy: [hence the most genuine smile ever like an adorable nerd because whatever he was expecting her to say was not that but we're here for it] Janis: [when you go to nudge him like shut up but it's more of a feelsy lean and we all know it 'sorry about missing work' 'cos we feel bad even if there's fuck all we can or could do about it] Jimmy: [always gotta give that feelsy lean back regardless of how much it hurts us which gets him thinking about how much work would suck being this injured so we're 😒 which makes it seem like we're really annoyed about missing work even though we know he'd rather be here, hence the shrug he does when he snaps out of said thoughts 'you're my fave job any road, said it before' stop calling her a job sir even if you said that in a more feelsy tone than the words suggest] Janis: ['charming as the first time' and a 🙄 we're probably playing off as more jokey than it is] Jimmy: ['nowt I'd wanna be doing more than pissing about here with you, what could be more charming than that?' maybe if you'd said that in the first place boy instead of calling her a job again] Janis: ['I'm against serving coffee to ungrateful dickheads, it's not much to brag about, like' but a shrug and 😏 'cos we're not fuming over it] Jimmy: ['loads else you could if you wanted to' just telling her she's 🥇 basically there 'but I'll do it if not' casual hypeman is how that sounds but we're just 😍] Jimmy: [when I was asleep a little list of things he likes about her/she could brag about came to me so I'll try and recreate it from memory for us now, first he was obvious and just wrote fit on her arm or wherever but then did a camera and painting mime to emphasise that and tell her she was a good muse before adding mysterious where he wrote fit but then it started getting cute cos he drew little vampire teeth in the air above her smile and a sun on her face which he added the 😁 grin to obvs and then because we were in that general area he wrote nerd in caps on her neck across the biggest lovebite because not only is she such a one but to include nerd flirting then we moved to her throat and he did 🗨 because he likes talking to her and added a 🎵 inside because she's genuinely a good singer then wrote fun before adding the ny as well cos she's also a laugh then he went down to where her abs are and wrote athlete also in caps because DUH and finally on her ribs did the ✔ again because she's been taking care of him and is so kind and nice etc and while he was there got carried away just drawing an elaborate and massive rose for all the love and feels we can't currently express] Jimmy: [there might have been others I'm forgetting but those were definitely the main ones] Janis: [I'm dying boo, we're going to have to be physical because if we aren't speechless then things will be said but it's going to be the most intense and loving ever so we know] Jimmy: [not letting that be interrupted, soz children fend for yourselves for a minute please] Janis: [it's not like we've gone far, you're fine and we need this so we don't die] Jimmy: [my half asleep day dream has killed us all I am soz] Janis: [we're not soz at all, y'all living your best life] Jimmy: [the feels have never been higher] Janis: [are gonna have to force you back in eventually] Jimmy: [if only so y'all don't declare your love in words as well] Janis: [smack on that window children because it's too damn soon hush] Jimmy: [Libi 👀 to see if you're kissing] Janis: [she's gonna tell everyone lmao, tiniest shipper] Jimmy: [I love her with my whole heart] Janis: [mcvickers getting that lowdown they did not ask for when we're back, accidental snitching, at least we're being good-ish lmao]

Janis: that doesn't have nothing to do with being able to tell he took it too far this time Jimmy: you don't know fuck all about me or what he has or hasn't done Janis: I've seen the state of you, for fuck's sake Janis: I'm not saying shit about previous or implying that it means anything but you can barely breathe right now Jimmy: the state of me is right, what bit of this has owt to do with you? Janis: I'm not going to piss about with you doing stupid shit if you aren't handling your actual Janis: that's what Jimmy: piss off Janis: you Jimmy: who the fuck are you giving me ifs and buts Jimmy: you piss about with me whenever it suits you Janis: fuck this Jimmy: yeah Janis: [hear that door go] Jimmy: 👍 Janis: I'll be back when I need to be Jimmy: for all you know you've woke every dickhead up and that's now Jimmy: but alright, keep giving it out like you're so bothered about the state of me and the bollocks I can't do while you leave me here on my own Jimmy: not fake at all Janis: I know it ain't Janis: and if you're gonna leave a 4 year old kid to freak out that'd be on you Janis: I don't have to stay and listen to you, who the fuck are you Jimmy: fuck's sake Janis: I didn't slam the door, they're asleep Jimmy: that's alright then Jimmy: forget I said owt Jimmy: top reaction Janis: yeah 'cos you've got fuck all room to talk Janis: be better for you if I did Jimmy: I don't wanna do this Jimmy: talk about it Jimmy: have to fucking handle it or whatever it were that you said Janis: then don't talk about it Janis: it's the bare fucking minimum to not expect me to ignore that you're in pain Jimmy: and what, you think I don't know that? Jimmy: that I wouldn't do a better job of this if I could Janis: apparently, I've got no right so Jimmy: you shouldn't have to hack this an' all Janis: I don't Janis: all I was doing was saying go sleep on a proper bed Jimmy: it's just Jimmy: I don't know Jimmy: weird Janis: how is it Jimmy: I said I dunno Jimmy: it's been ages since anyone bothered to say owt worth listening to like that Janis: well Janis: why fuck yourself up more Janis: that's it, it's no deeper than that Jimmy: Why not? Jimmy: that's been the question up to now Janis: if you're gonna self-harm Janis: don't do it in front of me Jimmy: you get to hold the 🔪 my dear, and when you do it'll be a pisstake if you don't go harder than that Janis: I'm not playing right now Jimmy: nor me Jimmy: what I meant were, it don't matter to me what happens to me if it only happens to me Jimmy: very catholic of me, I know Janis: i'm not interested in having no more blood on my hands Jimmy: not bleeding out as of now Jimmy: you're welcome to piss off again if I ever am Janis: 👍 Jimmy: is it? Janis: yep Jimmy: what kind of answer is that? Janis: what do you want? Jimmy: and what kind of question is that an' all? Janis: I'm not in the mood Janis: to talk to you or do this Janis: I'll be back to do my share and then we'll go back as soon as we can Jimmy: just come back now Jimmy: it's freezing Janis: I'm fine Jimmy: I won't be if I have to piss about looking for you Janis: don't Janis: I know where I am, it's not your concern Jimmy: don't make me Janis: for fuck's sake Jimmy: is right Jimmy: come back and ignore me from here Janis: don't tell me what to do Janis: I'll come back when I'm ready Jimmy: don't be a twat Jimmy: then I won't have to Janis: how far do you reckon I've got in this time Janis: I'm basically outside Jimmy: 💪🏆🥇 you Jimmy: might've 🏃 anywhere Janis: it's snowing Janis: in case you'd forgotten Jimmy: that'll be why I want you to come inside Jimmy: tah for recognising it Janis: don't come near me then Jimmy: alright Janis: [show up a few minutes later] Jimmy: [we do be giving her space like she requested thankfully but we have made her a tea because it's our love language and it is cold af out there no lie] Janis: [act like you're not gonna take it for as long as you can but clearly do] Jimmy: [go to your bed sir and give it a while before you come at her again] Jimmy: What did you mean? Janis: about what? Jimmy: you said you don't wanna do this, which bit? Janis: I was talking about tonight Janis: not permanent plans Jimmy: weren't how it sounded Jimmy: you had a plan and it were to piss off back there as soon as Janis: both gotta work Janis: both got kids that don't belong to us Janis: just the obvious next step, really Jimmy: if you wanna pretend that's why, go on, obviously Janis: I'm not pretending shit Jimmy: you don't have to be a massive dickhead to keep it going just 'cause I already were Janis: obviously I don't want to spend no more time with you too Janis: why would I Jimmy: no idea Janis: there you go then Jimmy: alright then Janis: she'll be gutted Jimmy: ? Janis: Libi Jimmy: already spent ages longer here than we were going to Janis: true Jimmy: and she don't need to know that you're #overit and me Janis: makes playdates a bit awkward Jimmy: what's a bit more faking? nowt we haven't done before Janis: right Jimmy: she's less thick than most of our audience but still only a kid Janis: no need to break them up Jimmy: agreed Janis: sorted Jimmy: ✔ Janis: anything else we need to? Jimmy: like what? Janis: dunno Janis: why I asked Jimmy: it's your question, weren't me who asked it Janis: I don't ask questions I know the answer to Janis: as a rule Jimmy: if you had something in mind, say it Janis: there's loads of shit Janis: potentially Janis: mainly how we're finishing this if we are Jimmy: up to you that Jimmy: it's you who wants to Janis: no it isn't Jimmy: weren't me who said I wanna go back or that I dunno why you're worth spending time with Janis: like you've not said shit tonight Janis: and neither of those is saying I want to finish it, anyway Jimmy: what else does not wanting to spend any more time with someone mean? Janis: we've been mates for what, a minute? Janis: we were doing it before then Jimmy: so you just don't wanna be mates? Janis: not worked out so great thus far Jimmy: bit rude Janis: 🙄 Jimmy: it were going alright Jimmy: you don't need to chuck it all Jimmy: not for something that weren't about you Janis: you bighead is really showing Jimmy: how is it? Janis: 'chuck it all' Janis: I was fine before you came about, tah Jimmy: you know what I mean Janis: how you say shit matters Jimmy: how I say loads of bollocks Jimmy: you get most of it Janis: I'm dickhead lingual, I guess Jimmy: I'm sorry, alright Jimmy: for what I said when I was in pain, that load of bollocks Janis: if you never phrase it like that again Janis: alright Janis: forget about it Jimmy: deliberately will ALWAYS phrase it like that now, each time Janis: if you could not make a habit of it, be appreciated Jimmy: being a MASSIVE dickhead? bit late for that Janis: I can handle that Janis: taking shit back that you've said Janis: leave off that Jimmy: not a habit I want Jimmy: only fancy the ones that'll 💀💀💀 me which that ain't gonna if it makes you piss off out of it Janis: a deal then? Janis: deal back on, actually Jimmy: if we shake on it Janis: okay Janis: come out then Jimmy: come here then Jimmy: meant to take your advice and stay put like a good lad here 🛏 me Janis: you're awkward how and when it suits you Janis: [but does, obviously] Jimmy: [will shake your hand and pull you into a hug gal] Janis: [the most dramatic hug, definitely forgetting to be careful here soz] Jimmy: [not caring that much because we care more about the bae knowing how soz we are and how many feels we have] Janis: [likewise, the tension got too much and went wrong, as it does, and we're #shooketh] Jimmy: [straight up asking her to stay for a bit because we're in our emotions so we're just saying what we wanna say without thinking about it] Janis: [just nodding 'cos that's all we can do] Jimmy: [making room for her as if this isn't a single bed lol] Janis: [at least you'll remember to be careful again and not hug him so hard, but then you're like oh, 'cos don't want to make it a Thing™ again so 'sorry, if you think I was making it all about me'] Jimmy: [a noise like no that is not what we think because 1. the strength of how much we don't think that 2. what are words and just hugging her for the emphasis] Janis: [shrugs like it's okay but we're not gonna keep going like we don't believe him even if we lowkey don't] Jimmy: [just looking at her like ! 'I think it's more of a headfuck than you signed up for, nowt else'] Janis: [just looking like how do I even explain that that's not your fault and literally the last thing either of us should be concerned about because it does not matter, just shaking our head like nah] Jimmy: [playing with her hair cos it would've had snow on it recently because there is too much we wanna say about our feels and so much we feel like we can't say about our family situation] Janis: ['I CAN handle it' like trust me] Jimmy: ['me an' all' like same even though you lowkey can't] Janis: [soft kiss] Jimmy: [you can have some little kisses too gal like my boo loves] Janis: [just being the most soft] Jimmy: [you gotta] Janis: ['we're alright, yeah?'] Jimmy: [a nod because the emotions are still too high rn and I'm not letting you say shit thank you] Janis: [sigh of relief] Jimmy: [hugging you again cos we don't want you to leave] Janis: [you can stay here lads, the bubs will be alright and you'll hear if they ain't] Jimmy: [snuggle it's what you both need] Janis: [let 'em be for a hot sec] Jimmy: [mhmm] Janis: [what shall we do in the AM?] Jimmy: [make breakfast together for these bubs obvs because all the domestic bliss needed] Janis: [might have to trek to the shop to get supplies, that'll be an adventure] Jimmy: [maybe you can make them some kind of sledge because you're both crafty art hoes] Janis: [I bet there's some kind of tings in a caravan that would work, cannot think what exactly but we know the vibes, get creative] Jimmy: [I wouldn't have the first clue but you two would figure it out and you can get Cass to help she'd be into that] Janis: [as well as snowball fight and snowman making competition, which are 2 points we wanted to hit too] Jimmy: [love that and you can also make snow dogs for these bubs] Jimmy: [the question is should we let them have another night here before we send them back or is that too dangerous] Janis: [I think we should for the danger of it/to prove we can lol] Jimmy: [I'm down, just don't have another argument please] Janis: [hohaha, be good] Jimmy: [I have faith in you] Janis: [the only thing I've said you've done is baking/crafts so apart from that enjoy your snow/beach funtimes, you should also get chips for dinner, obvs] Jimmy: [yeah I'm trying to think if there's anything else they should do] Janis: [there's potential the kids have said more? because this is a whole long weekend and they don't know/care not to so, that's potentially something we need to know] Jimmy: [oh that's a good idea, is there any tea you want spilled] Janis: [hmm, she'd probably just KEEP talking about her parents like all the things she's been told about Edie specifically, so all that tea, just more than we've got out so far] Jimmy: [likewise can picture Bobby really driving home the point that he doesn't have a mum and like what he remembers about her being basically nothing so it'd be obvious they haven't seen her for ages not just since they moved] Janis: [poor babs, just bonding and JJ are here like and I OOP] Jimmy: [I hope Cass isn't around when you're spilling that tea bub cos she will be fuming] Janis: [that is potentially a thing unless he knows better by now lol] Jimmy: [this boy living his best life with his new bff deal with it Cass] Janis: [soz hen, you'll be hanging with your new mates as much as you can so we're probably fine] Jimmy: [getting all that arcade swag] Janis: [love that we're pretending we don't hear any of this clear drama lmao ly babes] Jimmy: [poor Jimothy having to just sign all this back and forth like] Janis: [I do think for a bit Libi would keep shouting like he'll hear her eventually 'cos she's only little so that'll be amusing/a time just screeching everything lowkey] Jimmy: [that's really pure babe I do stan you] Janis: [people like that's a loud child lollollol] Jimmy: [I hope you're not still shouting when you go home hun, hilarious as that would be] Janis: [mcvickers like lawd, she'll be showing them how to sign what she's learnt like just in case bobby comes round] Jimmy: [which he definitely will at some point, all the playdates forever] Janis: [fully gonna just try and take herself to Jimmy's all the time like no gal] Jimmy: [shows up at his door because they literally live that close to each other everyone like !!!???] Janis: [troublemaker baby] Jimmy: [do so love the edition of her to this lil family unit JJ are making here though, she really does add to it] Janis: [agreed, it's very cute, she'd probably have told him about how Astrid is technically her auntie but like a year younger 'cos that's wild to kids, so gonna get a sense of how messy this fam is lol] Jimmy: [and she doesn't talk either so Libi would be used to having to find ways to communicate with her too even though we know Ro be pretending there's no issue rn] Janis: [exactly dr phil, we all been knew and trying to work around it apart from ro lmao, just giving a lowdown on every auntie she has which would be amusing and probably a lowkey drag for some of y'all ladies, we know Janis and Billie are her faves] Jimmy: [I can wholeheartedly support those faves gal, Billie would always be doing the most for her and Astrid, fuck you Ro you dusty bitch, Bobby would love all this cos they lowkey have no fam] Janis: [take 'em for rides on your fancy wheelz, they'd love that, just like you can come meet them when we get back like okay JJ, all this is happening regardless, soz] Jimmy: [if she was here you'd have a bomb sledge hens she's probably built Libi and Astrid all kinds of things, Bobby will love all of Ali's animals and shit she has too, casual farm moment] Janis: [probably telling you every cats name too, poor Jimothy is gonna need a break lol] Jimmy: [unrelated but related do you think Ali would have space for any horses because I have all that Cass horse content] Janis: [I think it makes sense, I too have some gay horse content, like it wouldn't be a working farm but I think she'd have various farmyard animals just for the household] Jimmy: [yeah it made sense to me too, like your auntie vibes] Janis: [mhmm, and it could've been just land when we inherited it but she's swagged it up now she has more time/the kids aren't bubs etc] Jimmy: [Bobby just asking if they can have a kitten, Jimothy like NO] Janis: [I'm cackling, 'cos Libi like YEAH] Jimmy: [just like okay can we have a chicken/pony/donkey whatever else creatures there are, Jimothy like lawd] Janis: [just shoving the whole barn into your rental home, god bless you tiny fools] Jimmy: [and then Bobby obvs wants to phone Twix and Jimothy is just trying to distract him because we don't wanna phone Ian and he won't play along with this thank you] Janis: [distract y'all with an activity fast] Jimmy: [they could make dog treats, it's not very difficult] Janis: ]that's a good idea boo] Jimmy: [casual gift to these pups] Janis: [they'll enjoy that, kids and dogs, also can have a tea party for the toy pups lol] Jimmy: [so CUTE gonna say that Jimothy draws you a little comic strip or something about these pups kids] Jimmy: [I don't know what daily doodle you're getting today Janis, but something loved up for sure] Janis: [frankly, we're all living today hun] Jimmy: [do you wanna do this night like we did the one before with them chatting again or are we just saying it's a chill loved up vibe?] Janis: [hmm hmm hmm, let's do it, maybe we can be cute] Jimmy: [you start it then gal cos I did before] Janis: [on it sonic] Janis: 🥇🏆💪 Jimmy: 😏 Janis: come on, we bossed it Jimmy: no need to sound surprised

About to nod at Katya because she was her friend for such a long time but then snapping the fuck out of that instinct and shaking her head because not anymore clearly and scoffing because yeah Summer is an idiot, who'd wanna be her when she doesn't even wanna] Fearghal: [Katya scoffs back 'She would rather be thought pretty and have boyfriend than have things that matters but this is like all girls our age, yes? Silly, knowing nothing about anything.' Fearghal coming back with three of whatever and shoving one at Tess as quick as she did the cigarette, swapping it for her empty, throwing it not at Summer and Josh but in their general direction 'What would you like to do?' Katya adds, taking a swig of her drink 'We can find you more customers if you would like'] Tess: [literally would wanna say something about how much Josh and the family they were meant to be did matter but not drunk enough for that although she blatantly will be soon cos haven't eaten anything in forever probably and would drink like half the drink he just gave her immediately like what could go wrong here. Finally saying 'Yeah' to both things but so quietly they'd struggle to hear it over this rave if they were anybody else and making herself move into the crowd to get customers instead of away which is what she'd wanna do] Fearghal: [she can go off to get all the lads and clearly get so fucked up 'cos all gonna buy her some too 'cos that's the ploy here, whereas he's gonna stay in sight 'cos shamelessly protective and can step in if anything kicks off with those two] Tess: [god bless, not all heroes wear capes lads, I appreciate less lads for Tess to have to deal with as she's getting white girl wasted in this club] Fearghal: [go have a cry you deserve it lbr] Tess: [just in the bathroom like the girly cliche you're not] Fearghal: [have at it honey, shame he can't smack Josh yet really] Tess: [kick everyone out first though you don't need that to be your rep] Fearghal: [meanwhile actually do smack him 'cos any reason at a party where everyone's fucked up] Tess: [hooray for coming back and them being gone] Fearghal: [small blessings, and they've probably shifted a fair amount between 'em so] Tess: [give this smol drunk child her money lads and she'll try not to cry on you] Fearghal: [all the funds for you] Tess: [give them a drug freebie like thanks even if Katya might wanna save hers for later if she's had loads] Fearghal: [I hope you've cheeked some for later or you'll be so skyhigh/about to die lol] Tess: [when she'd just wanna leave but like that's not her life]
