schlatt and server reader is literally plaguing my mind. need him coming in to sit in my section, tipping so well and then eventually getting all the coworkers to be like “who is bro??? and why he always tip you so good 😭😭” n then you’re like “oh thats literally my bf” and everyone’s like 😮
ORRRR
he’s like a regular with ted n charlie but if he’s like at the bar he’d be a couple drinks in and is like “is toots working today?? haven’t seen em in a while” and then you get sent out n you’re like “you been askin about me?” and he’s all smiles n “haven’t seen you in a while, just wanted to see my favorite server” n ted n charlie are like “yeah bro always talks about you” and boom love story
or hell yall work together and love to smooch in the back n he always runs your food out for you but everyone thinks it’s rlly cute, like you’re putting food in the system n he’s behind u rubbing your back being like “you forgot they wanted no gravy on the mashed potatoes”
but idk i didn’t rlly put too much thought into it…
wait bc why is server!schlatt kinda….. doing it for me…. also i hope u don’t mind i kinda mushed everything together LOL, let me know if u want more of this!!
server!schlatt who for some reason always gets insane tips even tho he’s kinda an asshole to all the customers
immediately started flirting with u when he got hired… esp if you were training him LMAO
jumps in if ur tables are making u uncomfortable or flirting with u - and sometimes outright takes them over if they’re being assholes and is like “what you don’t wanna flirt with me? aren’t i pretty too?”
first kiss is def in the walk-in when he corners u and asks u point blank if u have a crush on him, and all u can do is kiss him bc he’s so close and has a hand beside ur head on the bin of lemons for the bar
manyyyy more rendezvous in the walk-in hehehe
when ted and charlie come in, he points u out to them while you’re working and is like “yeah seriously they’re so hot i’m kinda losing it” lol
ofc ted and charlie immediately tell u when u come by to check on their table, like “btw schlatt thinks ur super hot just fyi” and schlatt just blushes and hits them with his note pad
def a lot of little touches and spending time around u, looking to see if anyone else is watching while ur putting food in the system and he’s kissing your neck or rubbing your back
going out for smoke/vape breaks with him just to spend time together without anyone else there
wears a tight black t shirt and black pants every day, showing off the outline of his biceps and chest *drool*
always uses his cash tips to buy u a drink after work just so you don’t have to go home yet :) even tho he’s so exhausted from his shift
uses your purple frilly pen when he can’t find his lmao (def not because he likes it)

Okay hi hello I’ve just binged your platonic Simon x reader headcannons and as an aspec person I am absolutely EATING THIS SHIT UP - Simon deserves someone to lean on and seeing him be vulnerable and care for someone like that and who will do the same for him makes my heart melt.
however, I am also a hopeless romantic and an absolute sucker for pain and the thought of Ghost catching feelings and being completely unaware of them because he’s barely used to having a friend let alone a crush; only realising after y/n does something he’d usually find stupid only to find himself completely smitten over it and him just going “oh. oh nO” and queue the internal turmoil because he has no idea what tf to do with himself and god forbid if y/n actually likes him back-
This has been plaguing me all morning and I cannot act right so I had to share it :,)
this can be a read as part of the bff ghost series i have going on, but i see it more as a "what if" kinda thing bc i strongly believe this man just needs a good friend. thank you for requesting, and as always, i hope you enjoy <3
warnings: nothing comes to mind, but lmk if you see something that needs to be added and i'll do it asap!
summary: ghost panics when he realizes he likes you just a little too much.
anon you're so smart for this because i genuinely feel like friends to lovers is the the easiest way for simon to fall in love
like there's already a deep, established trust there (in terms of being on the battlefield)
i mean obviously because if there wasn't you wouldn't even be on the team in the first place
but the trust he places in you on the field paired with the trust he has in you off the field?
i think it's safe to say that while this man doesn't realize it yet, he's already a goner
the meals you share, the low-budget hollywood action films you hate watch, and the unbelievable amount of patience he has for your shenanigans
basically, you two have become two peas in a pod (despite him not wanting to be in the pod in the first place but who cares he's your friend and that's all that matters)
and i genuinely believe of he were to start falling for one of his friends (aka you) it would be a very slow process, one that neither of you realize is even taking place
it would be the little things like you willingly making making the same dish two days in a row for your little meal times because he just likes it that much
maybe even leaning your head on his shoulder while you two watch those bad action films because, deep down, he loves knowing you trust him enough to feel so comfortable with him (bonus points if you end up falling asleep)
ordering him his favorite brand of loose leaf tea that he can never seem to find anywhere on store shelves
god forbid you memorize the way he prepares his tea and randomly show up with a steaming mug of it at random times of the day
as i said before, it's the little things that do it for him
but imagine doing all of those things on the. same. day.
like
you know he woke up extra early to help price take care of some paperwork and while he's doing that you stroll in a mug of tea
then later on when you see him for lunch he finds you made two plates of bangers and mash (sausages and mashed potatoes, it's a british thing apparently) despite having it the day before and when he asks why you just say something like, "yesterday you said you wished you could have more, figured i'd make more"
then later in the evening when everyone's retired to their rooms, you walk into his with the all too familiar box of loose-leaf tea in your hands along with a blanket
you just kinda set the box on the bedside table before dragging him to sit on the floor in front of the tv the two of you snuck into his room one night after price banned them after soap broke his and he was the one who had to clean up the mess
he totally saw you two sneak it in but never bothered to say anything because he trusts you
anyway
you flick on the tv and put on the third installment of that god awful 'sharknado' movie series you two had found out was a thing not too long ago
and all is well
until you lay your head on his shoulder and grab onto his arm as you look over his tattoos
he'll probably give you a little glance before turning his attention back to the movie, it's not uncommon for you to do things like this
but then he'll feel something cold press up against his skin and he'll look down again just to see you holding a colored marker and scribbling inside the lines of his tattoo
and as much as he wants to pull away and throw that marker to the other end of the room
he just can't bring himself to do it
not when you're pressed up against his side with your hands cradling his arm as if he was worthy of such care in the first place
obviously this night wouldn't be complete without you falling asleep against his shoulder, so that's exactly what you do
he lays you to sleep on his bed while he makes himself cozy on the floor :)
anyway cue him getting up early for his morning shower and the complete and utter shock that hits him like a truck when the marker you used the night prior to color in his tattoos doesn't wash off
he makes a bee line for his room and immediately picks up the marker you used only to find out it's sharpie
and while he knows that this would be a perfectly acceptable time for him to wake you up and chastise you for doing such a thing, he doesn't
because when he looks down at his arm he can practically feel his chest bloom with a warm, fuzzy feeling because you did that
and it's after he's stared at the colorful markings that now grace his skin does he realize he's got a small smile etched onto his face
then it hits him like a truck
he likes it because of you
he likes you
it cannot be overstated how quickly he grabs his stuff and leaves the room, not caring in the slightest that you're still wrapped up in his sheets
he doesn't do much work that day
just a lot of aimless walking around base as he tries to, in his words, get his shit together
because, in his mind, this is probably just about the stupidest thing he can do
and it's not even because he's technically your superior, that's a mess all on its own
it's the fact that either one of you could quite literally die at any given point while on a mission
and that's not even bringing up his own mountain of trust issues and insecurities
it's a mess
he's a mess
and how does he deal with this mess?
by avoiding you like the damn plague
you thought it was bad when he was trying to duck out of your pre-friendship interactions when you seemed to always be trying to find a way to bug him? think again.
he becomes practically invisible to you
his callsign isn't 'ghost' for no reason
i can honestly see it getting so bad to the point where you start to really only see him on group missions
which isn't too horrible admittedly because you always manage to squeeze in some small talk, but it's not enough
but one day, price calls the two of you into his office with laswell patiently sat waiting on a video chat over his laptop
and it's revealed that you two are being sent on a mission to gather some intel about some new terrorist group that's popped up on laswell's radar
and he just kinda sits there and accepts the fact he'll have to be paired up with you because what's he gonna do? tell laswell and price no? absolutely not
anyway
i imagine the mission going off without a hitch
i'm talking real simple, just a quick in and out before ghosts is on comms requesting an evac
that's where things go wrong
because you'll get some bullshit response like, "oh no, bad weather, can't fly like this, looks like you'll have to wait! get cozy!!"
and while you are a bit disappointed when he breaks the news, you can't help but feel a little happy because now you actually get to see and interact with simon for more than five minutes
but while you're over in your head having a small celebration over the unforeseen circumstances, simon is pretty much dreading it
he knows you know he's been avoiding you and he's 100% sure you're going to make him sit through an awkward conversation about it
and what's worse, he's certain you won't stop until he tells you why
well it's a good thing he knows how to keep his mouth shut!
at least he thought he did
because after having you ask him for the reason of his sudden avoidance of you for what he swears has to be the hundredth time, he just spits it out in a small fit of anger and annoyance
and i highly doubt he'll realize what he just said until he looks over to you after not getting a response and seeing you there with your eyes wide and jaw open
he'll definitely try to backtrack with something like, "forget what i said. you didn't hear anything."
and then your brain will finally kick in after going haywire for an unnecessarily long amount of time and you'll just kinda ask him in a small voice, "did you mean it?"
and as tempted as he is to brush you off and say no, he can't bring himself to do that
but remember, simon is still a very hurt man underneath that mask and heavy duty gear, so i can imagine him just letting out a small sigh before saying something along the lines of
"i'm sorry."
and your heart just breaks because you can practically feel the shame radiating from him as he turns himself away from you and averts his gaze to the floor
simon riley, perhaps one of the most hardened and strongest men you'll ever come to know, apologizing for the way he feels
you can't help but shuffle closer to him until you're sitting by his side
and you'll sit in silence this way for a while as he tries to ignore just how close you are while you try to find a gentle way to approach this
you're stumped
but eventually, your eyes will fall onto the floor and simon's gloved hand will come into your vision
and there's not a single thought in your mind before you're reaching out and putting your hand on top of his
the man practically malfunctions
he's sitting there, thoughts going a mile a minute as he tries to decipher what this means
but then you'll lean your head on his shoulder and he's almost startled at the way all of the noise in his head seems to just disappear
but still, he can't resist asking
"what now?"
and you'll let out a small, wistful sigh as you nuzzle your head further into his shoulder
"whatever we want."
he'll look down at you with an almost shy gaze, "and if i want you?"
and you'll interlace your fingers and punctuate it with a squeeze, "then you can have me."
and that's good enough for the both of you
at least until you get back to base
:)

Posting this writing for Crypter Rin AU again because i searched for it on my blog and couldn't find it
Rin gasped as the ribbon -the last remains of Ariadne- disappeared from her hand.
It was gone.
Just like Sakura.
Just like Shirou, when he walked out of her life, only for her to find out years later that he was executed.
Just like Setanta, whose blood was now dry on her shirt.
Rin let out a shaky breath.
This lostbelt's king is dead, and it's time for everything to fall apart.
"Tohsaka! What are you doing? We need to get out of here!" Chaldea's master called out.
Yeah, this place is falling apart.
Soon, one of these rocks will come down to crush her.
"Tohsak-" Rin shot Hakuno's shoulder with a Gandr. The shot only grazed her skin, leaving Hakuno and Mash confused and on alert.
"I'm not going with you." Rin glared at them. "Leave, or I'll kill you."
"Are you kidding me?! This is not the time for-"
"Face me! Chaldea!" Rin shot again, but Mash blocked it and looked at her with somber eyes. "Either face me or leave me!"
"Tohsaka-senpai..." Mash's eyes begged her to stop.
"Is this really how you deal with an enemy?" Rin smirked. "You just beg them to come with you? Do you really think you can do anything with that soft attitude? Do you think being 'good' and 'helpful' will turn everything around? Well, it doesn't!" Rin's smirk faded, and her expression was just tired. She was too tired to even feel angry anymore. "Good people never get the rewards they deserve. That's the kind of world you're protecting."
Hakuno's expression hardened.
Was she upset? Good. This will make things a lot easier.
Hakuno walked towards her, and Rin continued to point her finger, ready to shoot.
"Do you get it, now? You just have to get rid of anyone who stands in your way." Kill me. Rin's eyes quietly begged.
Please let me die.
Life has been nothing but hell.
Hakuno suddenly punched her, making Rin stumble backward.
Now that's a pleasant surprise.
"Senpai?!" Mash was surprised.
"I guess you're not all soft..." Rin spit out some blood, and laughed. "You can pack a punch, who would have thought?"
"I just figured that you might need a wake-up call." Hakuno then pulled Rin by her coat's collar. "So you're just going to let Setanta's death go in vain?! Did everything Orpheus said to you mean nothing? You've tricked Ariadne all this time, and you think you can just get away and not deal with the consequences?"
"Yeah. Pretty much." Rin shrugged. "Would be better for us both if you let me just die."
"Well if you want to kill yourself so badly, do it when I'm not around!" Hakuno tightened her grip. "I can't let you die."
Rin hated this woman.
Hakuno's expression looked pained as if she was trying not to cry.
What's with her?
Why couldn't she let die in peace?
Everyone Rin has ever loved is dead.
"Fine. Let's die together, then." Rin pulled out her gems. "I can make all of these explode right now. I can just take you with me."
"Sure you can. You can't even die properly." Hakuno glared at her. "You couldn't even kill me."
"What?"
"I was barely conscious when we both fell. You had your knife against my throat, and yet you threw the knife away."
Rin sighed. "Right... The knife."
Before Hakuno could process what she was saying, Rin pushed away and grabbed her knife.
"Idiot!"
Rin dug the knife into her chest, much to Hakuno and Mash's horror.
"You idiot!" Hakuno was quick to catch her. "Mash! Quick let's carry her out of here!"
"Didn't think... The last person I'd see was you, but oh well." Rin's chuckle was cut off with a cough. "A lame face to be sure, but at least it's not a Matou. That's a special brand of ugly."
"Tohsaka-senpai! Please save your strength!" Mash carefully carried her. "We'll heal you once we get back!"
"Idiot... The point is that I don't..." Rin sighed. The sharp pain in her chest made it hard to talk.
Oh well.
"You won't die!" Hakuno said as they ran.
So stubborn.
But... So kind as well.
Rin smiled and closed her eyes.
She was hoping to see Sakura again, but realistically speaking, she was probably going to hell.
Still, it's a nice thought, isn't it?
Gathering around with the people she loved under the cherry blossoms?
What a nice dream... That would be...

Shipping Meme (Still Accepting!)
do i ship our characters together?: yes | no | not yet but maybe soon
would i like to ship with you?: yes | maybe, i’m willing to try | no
type of relationship i could see: childhood or high school sweethearts | exes (potentially if things go sour?) | engaged | married | long-term relationship | crushes | unrequited love | fling | long distance | online relationship | just dating | new relationship | toxic lovers | friends with benefits
tropes i’d enjoy writing for them: friends to lovers | enemies to lovers | exes to lovers | fake relationship / dating | forbidden love | grumpy and sunshine | star-crossed lovers | surprise pregnancy | second chance | soulmates | amnesia / mistaken identity | forced proximity | secret relationship | slow burn relationship
would i rather plot first or jump right in and see where it goes?: develop their relationship first | jump right in | something in between ( what specifically? ) do a mish mash of talking it out, plotting and just winging it! I like all three. I find that it gives excitement to the mix.
what now?: let’s plot something | send me shippy memes | i’ll send you shippy memes | write me a random starter | i’ll write you a random starter | LET'S JUST HAVE FUN AND FIGURE IT OUT AS IT COMES ALONG!
anything else i want you to know about me / my character / my shipping habits / ect.:  I really think Minthara and Connor have a possibility of being around together for a long time. And if they didn't work out long term, it would be because Minthara has crossed a line that Connor can't necessarily follow. Even in spite of that, Connor would not stop feeling for Minthara. Minthara is so, so utterly devoted, and I think Connor can in full reciprocate that back ten fold. She elevates his self esteem, and he provides protection and full honesty in the relationship. It's a potent combination of vulnerability and trust and absolute loyalty that keeps them strong. It's both their strong suites.
Also she's a canonical monsterfucker? Like? This woman is the best okay. Thank you Minthy. I love u Minthy.

Encantober/Egotober - Tragedy/Ink
OK... so turns out when you mash hyperfixations together... you get- uh... interesting results.
Anyway @encantober-official, @tracobuttons
~~~~~~
CW: Moving snake skull, ink nearly suffocating two people, slight vomiting at the end and bones breaking
Everywhere Bruno Madrigal looks, ink spills and drips from the walls of the white void. He can’t entirely explain what’s happening, but he knows not to touch it. He jumps over the puddles, much like jumping over cracks. It’s not so hard. He’ll survive-
Squish! Bruno screams as his foot gets trapped in the sticky ink. He pulls and pulls at his leg to no avail. He stutters over prayers as he tries in vain to free himself.
Suddenly, a blast of warm magic- he can’t think of another word for what he sees- eviscerates the ink, and he looks up to see Jameson Jackson smiling back at him. The moustached gentleman, whom he met mere hours ago, seems to be adept at magic, albeit a different sort of magic. When they get out of whatever this is, he plans on asking him about how magic works in his world.
“Do you know where we are?!” Bruno yells. Jameson shakes his head and motions to him to keep running.
{Don’t think about that right now. Just find an exit!} Bruno can barely read the gentleman’s sign as Jameson leaps across puddles, blasting any ink that gets in his way.
Bruno tries to will a vision to come to him, but ultimately decides against it. He needs his own vision to avoid the puddles.
Bruno is quite literally ripped out of his thoughts as a tendril suddenly ensnares his arm. He tugs against its slimy yet strong grip, screaming as the ink begins to climb up his legs and wrap itself around his body. In the corner of his eye, he can see Jameson’s hands covered as ink envelops him. The tendrils lift the men off the ground. Bruno kicks and screams. Jameson snarls and yells as he attempts to break his hands free of the ink.
“So weak, yet you fight on,” a voice says. Bruno and Jameson gasp.
{Who’s there?! Show yourself, you dirty rascal!} Jameson growls.
“No need for insults…” The world begins to rumble. Jameson and Bruno gasp as an ivory skull emerges from the largest puddle of ink. The beast slowly rises out of the darkness, its slimy form towering over the men. It looks down, the intense stare of its eye sockets burning into the mages. Bruno takes the time to look over the beast’s body. It has no legs, just a large noodle, and that odd skull… It dawns on him.
Bruno swallows back a scream. He hates snakes. “W-what do you want with us?”
“You…” The ink-beast lowers its head so that’s eye level with the men. “You two fascinate me… Always left behind.. Always the weakest ones…”
The coils of ink stretch up their ears. Bruno slams his mouth shut as it gags him. Jameson shudders as the ink wraps around his throat.
The ink-beast turns to Jameson first. “One, abandoned by everyone he loves- family, friends, even mere acquaintances- sacrificed to the monster like a pig on a stick.”
Jameson can’t move. Jameson can’t move! The ink seems to be squeezing his limbs together, as if to crush him. He feels the black goop knock his hat off as it attempts to cover his eyes. He shakes his head violently to keep the ink from engulfing him entirely.
Across from him, Bruno has gone limp, his head lulling as the ink dangles his body in the air like a child’s plaything. The ink-beast nods towards him.
“You, thrown under the bus, left for dead, forgotten by all you love.” Another tendril slaps Bruno across the face, leaving a black spot.
“Your lives are one never-ending tragedy,” the beast says. “Why not let it end already?”
Jameson shakes off the ink covering his eyes as a blinding green light flashes at him. He gasps as Bruno’s eyes glow a bright green. Around him, the ink hovers in the air, caught up in Bruno’s strange trance.
Bruno begins to writhe against the ink as slowly, but surely, a green tablet begins to form from the hovering ink. Jameson watches in awe. The beast roars and steers its giant body towards the prophet.
The ink around Jameson begins to slack, allowing the gentleman to free one of his arms. He snaps his fingers at the tablet, breaking it into sharp pieces. With a wave of his hand, he tosses the broken pieces at the beast’s eye sockets and hits it dead on!
The beast howls in agony, the noise piercing the men’s ears. Their inky prisons go slack, and they slip out of them, falling into the puddles below. Bruno jolts back to life as his body slams against the ground, bones snapping.
The beast thrashes and writhes, roaring all the while. It slowly pulls its body back into the pond, the screams fading away.
Bruno and Jameson lie on the floor, choking on air. Bruno gags and rolls over, sobbing as a burning pain spreads through his legs and thighs. Jameson coughs, spitting out chunks of ink.
As his coughing fit dies down, Jameson smiles weakly at Bruno. {How about we get out here, hm?}
Bruno manages a light chuckle before pain takes over his senses and his world goes black.
~~~~~~~~~

Barber's chair
Horror Short Story CW: bodily liquids, disturbing imagery.
Barber's chair
I’m always excited to get my hair cut. Something so strange and so small yet makes such a big impact on your confidence and appearance. I just sat into the slightly used leathery barber's chair feet resting on the foot stool that stays attached to the spinning chair. It’s so fun playing with them when your barber leaves for a moment, I remember as a kid I’d spin all the time till I felt dizzy. This time, not three moments after I sit down, a broad-shouldered mountain of a man walks behind me. Not necessarily tall. But sitting down beside him, he sure seems like he could crush anyone with his bare hands. He turns towards my seat, his aura sending vibrant chills of every colour and shade down my spine. He leans to open his small floating desk of tools, razors, beard balm, and styling spray. The glance at his back gives me a sense of calm. He has no tattoos or facial piercings but a lovely well-presented beard and slightly long hair that passes no further than his mouth, put up into a styled bun. From one glance, you see that he cares for his craft and shows it with himself. My hair is still damp from the wash another hairdresser gave me about seven minutes ago. I still have yet to see his face as a whole. The silence is thick, only broken by my forceful acknowledgement of the other people near me chatting about their day. Nothing I can make out. The words hit my ears as a mash of sentences and sounds. My lips start to open, feeling the chapped top lip clinging to the lower lip until the two sides let loose with more force. I begin a sentence hoping to break the tension, just a casual introduction and a "How are you doing." Before the air could leave my windpipe, he points to the mirror without saying a word. I glance over, seeing my own reflection. The reflection appeared normal. I noticed while attempting to peek at what was behind me, a note. One the size of a pinky. "Quiet zone", the message read to me. I decided to not say a word. I didn't understand why or how I never was told about this "Quiet zone," but I didn't care to intrude and disrupt. Probably sensitive to noise, I make myself believe. The barber picks up his tools, his left hand holding clippers and the right a comb. Luckily I was only coming for a trim as I wanted to grow my hair out after shaving my head last summer. He stands behind me. His presence takes up nearly the entire body-length mirror. Not literally. While he was a big guy. He certainly couldn't take up that much space. His presence there made it near impossible to focus on the surroundings. I forgot to mention the backward cape as my friend liked to refer to, it was already strung around me to allow the hair to slide right off. The barber gently taps me as if to warn me that he is starting. The buzzer turned on ever so quietly as he dug it into my hair. He was gentle. His muscled hands lay firmly around my hair. If I were asleep, I would have mistaken it for a cat's tail. A couple minutes in, I'm a little bored. The silence irritates a little, and it was clear my legs and fingers became restless. Finding anything entertaining to occupy me, I looked through the large reflection only to be greeted by the barber's face. Nothing odd. At first. His eyes were covered. Not by a hat or glasses or anything like it but by the way he is tilting his head down to cut my hair. His beard covered his mouth and most of his cheeks. It was a brilliant black beard. Ink black like the sky on a clear night. No stars, obviously just a clear dark sky. I'm curious as to what he looks like but refrain from moving my head so as to not disrupt his workflow. He looked invested, caring for every hair like a piece of modern art. On his way to get a spray bottle, he  nudged the chair slightly to the right, and it was only then did I realise the noise of the clients stopped. PART ONE OF TWO -Finn

Welcome, Mr. T-Rex,
To the story of my favorite level in gaming history.
Let me set the scene. It's August 26, 1997. You've just gotten out of school, and are absolutely ELATED. why? Because today is the day the NEW JURASSIC PARK GAME COMES OUT!! and YOU'RE gonna get it!! ON LAUNCH!! You fling yourself into the car and immediately start pestering your mom about it, she sighs and tells you that yes, we are going to Toys-R-Us to get it like she promised.
After what feels like the slowest car ride ever recorded in human history, the car pulls into the parking lot. You can barely constrain yourself from running straight through the driveway and into those inviting doors, crossing safety be damned. Darting through the game aisles with conviction and only one thing on your mind, you find it.
Tumblr media
oh my god. it's so much better than what the magazines showed.
You stand there for almost a minute, stunned by its majesty. You NEED this game.
After yet another eons-long car ride (what is it, the 12th? feels like it, at least.) you finally pull into the driveway. By the time your mother has stepped foot on the asphalt, you're already desperately clawing at the door.
AT LAST, YOU'RE HOME! You chuck your backpack and the homework inside across the room haphazardly, fiddle with the seal on the case and finally manage to put the game into the drive with shaking hands.
You don't put the game down for a second, playing through level after level, character after character, just so you can finally Be The T-Rex.
You wonder how it will feel, to crush all foes beneath you with the godlike power of such a terrible lizard. Years of schlocky dinosaur movies and pop culture references flow through you, as you grow more excited by the second.
You barely beat the boss in the last Velociraptor level, run ragged with few lives to spare, and it's way past your bedtime. But none of that will matter soon. Because it's finally time.
The introductory cutscene plays, quaking from the sheer mass and power of this beast. You take a bite of a pizza bagel you've been saving for this exact moment. The level loads. The air is so thick with suspense you can barely breathe.
The level starts, the orchestral tense and booming, "a fitting song for the ultimate hunter", you think. But little do you know, you are not the hunter, but the hunted.
Almost immediately, swarms of raptors are fervently trying to chase you down and devour you, eternally just one step behind. At first you try to fight them off, to flex your power as the master of this land, but quickly realize this is not the power fantasy you expected as the horde proves endless. You try to flee, but the levels are winding and filled with dead ends that force you to either memorize it all, or face the packs. even the scorched earth you tread upon deals damage to you. Your past confidence and joy have faded to blind panic and adrenaline as you realize that you're on your last life.
Mashing buttons, the glorious form of your beloved T-Rex is contorted and twisted as you jump like a fool to avoid hazards and attack repeatedly at thin air in hopes of even the smallest boost in speed, even if only perceived.
You go through the of rest levels in a fugue state, desperate to reach the end, to see if it gets better, if there's some sort of amazing boss fight or awesome spectacle scene.
There isn't. Only more paths to tread and foes to flee from.
You reach the end of the last level, some sort of base camp or something, you're too tired to care. You save the game, turn off the TV, take out the disc and go to bed. Maybe you'll finish it later.
You do not finish it later.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
BONUS SECTION!!
so. this was supposed to just be a short post about why i thought this level was so funny, but. um, that happened. Whoops!
is now a good time to confess i've never played this game?
ANYWAYS, The name of this post actually comes from the name of the first T-Rex level theme! I felt like the name was originally supposed to be a celebration of you finally getting to the "good part" of the game, but morphed into sort of a "We've been expecting you" tone due to the difficulty, if that makes any sense.

finally, here's a lil doodle for sticking through with this!

What Is Vanilla Extract?
Vanilla is precious in most baking recipes, yet unadulterated vanilla concentrate has an undeniable cost when you get it.
Whether you choose to painstakingly reduce expenses by buying counterfeit vanilla or go overboard on unadulterated vanilla concentrate, it means a lot to know how long your concentrate endures.
Does vanilla concentrate turn sour?
Vanilla concentrate has an endless time span of usability with regards to food handling. Nonetheless, it will lose its flavor and fragrance over the long run. In any case, you ought to have quite a while to utilize your concentrate before you need to stress over its quality, the same length as you store it appropriately.
In this article, we will analyze unadulterated and fake vanilla concentrates with regards to their timeframe of realistic usability. We'll likewise discuss the inconveniences of capacity and figure out how to store vanilla concentrate to boost its quality for quite a while.
What Is Vanilla Extract? Vanilla concentrate is a critical fixing in many baking recipes. Bring the wonderful fragrance and sensitive kind of vanilla to your pastries.
Unadulterated vanilla concentrate is made by macerating or crushing and pounding vanilla beans in an answer of water and ethanol.
As indicated by the USDA, to be viewed as unadulterated, vanilla concentrate should have something like 35% liquor and at least 100 grams of vanilla beans per liter of fluid.
The primary wellspring of the vanilla flavor comes from a compound called vanillin. Albeit the vanilla bean has numerous different mixtures that add profundity and intricacy to the kind of the concentrate.
Counterfeit vanilla concentrate is additionally extremely famous on the grounds that it is substantially less costly than the unadulterated concentrate. Counterfeit vanilla is produced using artificially delivered vanillin, which is really a result of wood mash.
Since it is engineered and misses the mark on other regular supplements and smells of the entire case, certain individuals find counterfeit vanilla concentrate less tasty or fulfilling than unadulterated vanilla concentrate.
Since it is utilized basically in baking with numerous different fixings and flavors, fake concentrate is an extraordinary and economical option for most purposes.
Vanilla concentrate is a fixing in large numbers of our heated products. This normal expansion really conveys large weight — 1 teaspoon totally changes a decent pastry into an extraordinary treat. You can't make a couple of staples like vanilla cake, vanilla cupcakes, or vanilla buttercream without it.
A dear peruser named Jill messaged me last year and said that once she started making her own vanilla concentrate, her prepared products tasted far better than previously. She let me know the mysteries are to utilize additional vanilla beans and allowed the concentrate to sit for no less than a half year prior to utilizing.
I never remembered to distribute a post about natively constructed vanilla concentrate since it's basic. However, Jill's words were sufficient to persuade me that all cooks ought to realize that a less expensive AND better tasting vanilla concentrate is just 2 fixings away.
hand crafted vanilla concentrate in glass bottles Why Make Natively constructed Vanilla Concentrate? Why make vanilla concentrate when you can simply get it from the store? Great inquiry. With the cost of vanilla continually fluctuating, it's exceptionally cost effective to make your own. In addition, you have some control over the strength of its flavor. This is KEY in light of the fact that numerous expensive locally acquired choices come up short on fundamental profundity of flavor that makes great vanilla… great vanilla. This is either on the grounds that the vanilla concentrate is impersonation and made with counterfeit or engineered fixings or brands cut back on how much genuine vanilla in each jug. You're not paying for good vanilla, you're paying for the comfort of feeble packaged vanilla.
(Coincidentally, last year I was essential for a visually impaired trial of various locally acquired unadulterated vanillas and McCormick won by a surprising margin. It was the gathering's top decision in both flavor and smell.)
In the event that you open a jug of a few locally acquired vanilla concentrates and a container of hand crafted vanilla, you will quickly smell the distinction. What's more, this distinction straightforwardly moves into your hand crafted prepared merchandise.
Custom made Vanilla Concentrate: Video Instructional exercise
vanilla beans What You Want for Natively constructed Vanilla Concentrate All you're doing is pouring liquor over split vanilla beans and allowing the invention to progress in years over the long haul. Give it a shake occasionally. It's simply simple.
Vanilla Beans: You can find vanilla beans all things considered significant supermarkets in the flavor passageway. In the event that you can't find them, have a go at buying them on the web. I use and energetically suggest these choices — they're additionally what I use when I make vanilla sugar — Madagascar vanilla beans, these Tahitian vanilla beans, or these Tahitian vanilla beans. (Note that each are various amounts.) I've made vanilla with them all. The beans are a liberal size, quite stout, top caliber, and ideal for hand crafted vanilla. Vanilla beans named "Grade B" are explicitly sold for the purpose of separating, however I've made vanilla with Grade A beans and it tastes perfect. Use all things considered.
80 proof Liquor: Vanilla concentrate is generally usually produced using vodka, yet you can utilize whiskey, cognac, or rum all things being equal. I for the most part use vodka, yet the one container of whiskey vanilla I made 7 months prior is Heavenly.
Don't bother going overboard on costly liquor. This is most likely the main time somebody will advise you to purchase the modest stuff!! All the vanilla's flavor is from the vanilla beans, so spend your cash on those. Keep away from enhanced vodkas as they frequently contain counterfeit flavors, which nullifies the reason for making your own unadulterated vanilla.
Glass Containers or Containers with Tight Seal: We suggest 8 ounce bottles. These jugs have a helpful swing top with an extremely close seal. Extraordinary for giving. Sanitizing the jugs is great, however we've avoided that step with no issue in the result of the vanilla. In the event that your jugs or containers have no plastic pieces connected, we suggest sanitizing them prior to utilizing.

And They Were Roommates! | KNJ x PJM
Tumblr media
Pairing: Namjoon x Jimin
Genre: smut, fluff, friends to lovers, Roommates!AU
Rating: M (18+)
Warnings: swearing, kissing, dry humping, oral sex (m receiving), Namjoon's a bit of a tease, Jimin is total putty in his hands
Word Count: 1.8k
Disclaimers: NSFW, obviously I don’t own BTS - they just inspire me
Summary: Jimin suddenly finds himself a lot closer to his roommate Namjoon than he ever expected to be. And it's making him fall apart.
A/N: Happy Pride month! I wrote a little sequel to my MiniMoni drabble "Is That My Shirt?" It picks up right where that story left off, but if you haven't read it, that's okay! All you need to know is that they're roommates, and Jimin has a bit of a crush on Namjoon. 🥰
Unbeta’d as usual. I’d love to know what you think - my inbox is always open! 💕
Masterlist 💜 Find me on AO3 💜
Tumblr media
“Are you okay?” 
The question hangs in the air. A few seconds stretch into a few minutes. Jimin knows he should respond, but he can’t seem to. He’s frozen, unable to think, let alone speak.
Because Namjoon’s hand is on his dick. 
Namjoon’s hand. 
Is on. 
His dick. 
Somehow, they’d ended up on the couch. Jimin couldn’t remember how they’d gotten there. One minute, they’re standing in the hallway, and Namjoon is bending towards him, all dimples and hooded eyes, and then suddenly, they’re lying on the couch, mouths mashing together, and Namjoon’s hand… well, not to overstate the facts, but his hand is on Jimin’s dick.  
“Is this too fast?” Namjoon rasps, removing the appendage in question from where it was sliding halfway down Jimin’s pants. 
Jimin shakes his head furiously. No, no, not too fast. He’s wanted Namjoon for so, so long. Jimin’s ready to slam his foot on the accelerator like Vin Fucking Diesel. At least, that is the answer his dick would give if asked. But his head? Seems to be pumping the brakes, given his sudden bout of hand-on-penis induced paralysis.
“No,” he finally croaks, wincing as his voice squeaks like he’s going through puberty again. He’s too fucking old to sound like a hormonal teenager, even if he’s currently acting like one. “No, don’t stop, I’m okay. This is okay.” 
Namjoon laughs, dipping his head to kiss Jimin again. God, his lips are so soft for someone who never bothers with things like the expensive lip masks Jimin indulges in. He comes by that lushness naturally. Yet another reason Jimin should be frustrated with him - his annoyingly perfect mouth. 
Except the longer Namjoon keeps that mouth on him, the less Jimin cares. 
“We don’t have to rush into anything,” Namjoon studies Jimin’s face. “I'm not going anywhere.” The smartass in Jimin wants to ask if he means that literally, as his roommate, or if he’s speaking about this… whatever this is between them, but the expression on Namjoon’s face makes it clear. 
Namjoon starts to pull away, and Jimin clutches his biceps in a blind panic. And then panics again as the muscles in his roommate’s arms ripple under his fingers. Holy hell, he knew Namjoon was yoked, but it’s one thing to see and another thing entirely to feel. Images flood his already overwhelmed brain, but he cuts through the filth, finding his voice again. “No. Not rushing. Wanna… wanna kiss you.” 
“Yeah?” Namjoon’s eyebrow rises cockily. “Is that what you want?” 
Jimin nods, tongue suddenly tied in knots again. What the fuck is happening to him? He’s never been shy with any of the people he’s messed around with over the years. He’s always been a shameless flirt and proud of it. And in the bedroom, he's more than happy to take the lead. Any other time, that is, except for right now, lying here in Namjoon’s strong arms. 
Namjoon kisses him thoroughly, head tipping to the side to allow him a better angle. His tongue flicks at Jimin’s lips, and Jimin opens automatically, eagerly letting Namjoon in. He can’t stifle the moan that the other man coaxes from the back of his throat, husky and desperate. His body buzzes as Namjoon’s laughter vibrates through him. 
“Listen to you. So needy, hmm?” 
God, the rasp of Namjoon’s voice. Jimin is painfully hard, cock throbbing in his jeans. He tugs on Namjoon’s shirt, trying to urge the taller man to come closer. Namjoon obeys his silent request, and Jimin groans as he feels Namjoon grind his pelvis into him. His roommate is just as hard as he is. 
Namjoon wants him, too. 
This information goes straight to Jimin’s already stunned head and he loses his words again, whimpering as Namjoon trails his mouth up and down the slender column of Jimin’s throat. He nibbles on a spot below Jimin’s ear, and the sound that leaves Jimin’s mouth is embarrassingly loud.
Namjoon laughs again. “Damn, I wish I’d known you wanted this sooner.” He nips again at Jimin’s neck, and Jimin instinctively bucks up into him, making Namjoon hiss. “Shit. Right here? Is this the spot?” A tender nuzzle grants him another whimper. “Hmm. I wonder where else I can touch you that will make you moan like that.”
“Joonie,” Jimin whines. He blinks in surprise. He whined. Jimin never whines when he’s with someone - he’s always the one making the other person whine. What is going on? He’s completely falling apart.
It feels amazing.
“Joonie,” he says again, voice still shaky. Because even though Namjoon has abandoned his incredibly sensitive neck, he’s starting to slip down Jimin’s body, kissing him through his shirt over his chest, hot breath tickling Jimin through the thin fabric.
“Joonie?” Namjoon repeats, lifting his head to peer at him. His eyes have darkened, pupils fully blown, lips bright red and swollen, and Jimin wonders what he must look like at this moment. Probably an absolute wreck. 
And then Jimin realizes what he’s said. He’s never called Namjoon that before, has no idea where it came from. But before he can spiral too far, Namjoon grins. 
“I like that. Call me Joonie, baby.” His roommate’s dimples pop. “Can I call you baby?” He reaches for the hem of Jimin’s shirt and slips it up over his chest, exposing Jimin’s torso. 
“You can call me whatever you want,” Jimin blurts, head falling back against the couch as Namjoon’s teeth suddenly graze one of his nipples. “Just keep doing that!” 
He can feel Namjoon laughing as his mouth suctions to Jimin’s chest. Every rumble makes Jimin’s heart do a somersault. 
“You’re so cute,” Namjoon informs him. Jimin’s been called many things by those he’s fooled around with - hot, sexy, even ‘fucking amazing’ a time or two. But never cute. 
He likes it. 
Namjoon’s long fingers are playing with the button on Jimin’s jeans. “Can I keep going, baby? You still okay?” 
“You - you wanna keep going?” 
Namjoon chuckles, bringing himself back up to Jimin’s mouth again. The way he kisses him brushes away any doubts that were trying to form. “Yeah,” he murmurs, nose nudging Jimin’s cheek as he speaks, “I wanna keep going. Wanna make you feel good. Do you want that?” 
Jimin nods, diving in for another kiss. His hands clutch at Namjoon’s sides, and Namjoon rolls his hips into Jimin’s, earning himself another whine. 
“Say it, baby,” Namjoon whispers, rolling again. “Tell me what you want.” 
“Wanna keep going, Joonie,” Jimin keens. 
“What do you want me to do?”
Jimin swallows thickly, cock aching at Namjoon’s question. “T-touch me. Please.” 
Namjoon grins, eyes crinkling nearly shut as he shuffles down the couch. “Gonna do more than touch you. Since you asked so nicely.” 
A quick flutter of his fingers and Jimin’s pants are undone and being shucked. His dick strains against his boxer briefs for a moment before those are gone too. Part of him feels abashed that he’s already leaking, his tip wet with precum. His excitement at the thought of having Namjoon’s hands on him is so painfully obvious. But Namjoon doesn’t seem to mind one bit, given the way he groans as he smears the wetness over Jimin’s head with his large thumb. He gently grasps Jimin’s dick in his hand and Jimin closes his eyes in ecstasy as Namjoon lowers his mouth. 
“Joonie!” he gasps as Namjoon swirls his tongue around his shaft, covering him in his spit, making him slick enough to easily take him in. As soon as Namjoon’s lips close around him, Jimin immediately thrusts upward, and then immediately apologizes. “Shit! Sorry!”
Namjoon just places one of his big hands on Jimin’s hip, holding him down while the other hand strokes in tandem with his moving mouth. And that mouth. Oh, that glorious mouth! So warm and wet and tight when he swallows around Jimin’s cock. 
Jimin is in heaven. Namjoon’s lips feel so perfect wrapped around him. He doesn’t have the slightest clue what it is he did to end up here, but he thanks his lucky stars he did it, because oh my god Namjoon is deep-throating him. Namjoon’s nose bounces off of Jimin’s pelvis as he bobs, and that’s it, Jimin’s not going to last. Maybe he should feel ashamed that he’s going to cum so quickly, but at the moment he just can’t find it in himself to give a fuck. 
“Joonie,” he groans, hands fisting in Namjoon’s dark hair, “hyung, gonna - I’m gonna -“
“Mmmmm,” Namjoon hums, releasing his grip on Jimin’s hip to press Jimin’s hand further into his hair. Jimin gets the message, and tugs, guiding Namjoon down as far as he can go on his cock, feeling himself hit the back of his roommate’s throat- 
Jimin moans, a drawn-out guttural exhalation of wordless pleasure as he spills inside Namjoon’s mouth. He keeps thrusting, hips lifting off the couch, as Namjoon swallows around him, cleaning Jimin’s release with his tongue. Jimin collapses back against the cushions, completely spent. Mind a total blank. 
Maybe later, they’ll have to talk seriously about this moment and what it means and where things might go and all of those tricky questions that come with fooling around with your roommate/crush/possible love of your life (?), but not right now. Right now, he glances at Namjoon, who is sitting back on his heels at the other end of the couch. He wonders what Namjoon thinks about the way Jimin reacted to, well, everything.
Jimin sits up, rubbing the back of his neck, shirt still tucked up under his armpits. He pulls his boxer briefs back on. “Um. That was…” 
“That was so fucking hot,” his roommate finishes, corner of his lips twisting into a smile. “Was that good for you?” 
“Yeah. Really fucking good.” Jimin’s mind feels a lot clearer now without the haze of arousal fogging it up. “Uh. Hyung - “
“Joonie,” Namjoon corrects him, shifting so he’s seated next to Jimin. One of Jimin’s hands is resting on his bare thigh, and he slips his fingers between Jimin’s. 
Jimin stares at their entwined hands. “Right. Joonie,” he begins again, a flush creeping up his cheeks, “I’m not usually like this.” 
“Like what?” 
“Like so…” Pliant? Submissive? Weak as fuck for someone’s touch? “So, uh, yielding. This was kinda… new. For me.” 
Namjoon tips his head, gaze thoughtful. “Yeah. Me too, actually. But, I dunno. It felt right?” He shrugs. “And I liked it. And I think you liked it, too?”
Jimin bites his lip before grinning. “Yeah, I did.” He takes a deep breath. “And… I like you, Joonie.” 
“Kinda thought you did.” Namjoon has the audacity to laugh at Jimin’s astonished expression. “You don’t hide things as well as you think you do. But it’s okay.” He yanks Jimin’s hand, tugging the shorter man into his lap. “Just makes me like you more.” 
As he smiles against Namjoon’s lips, melting into his kiss, Jimin thinks he could get used to this.

So, uhh how would Tanjiro Inosuke and Genya act after having sex with their s/o for the first time? Would they be protective? Shy? Lovey-dovey? Thank you ^^
OWO HONEY. I'll tell you.
Demon Slayer Boys after being Intimate. G/N!Reader
Tumblr media
Tanjirou
Tumblr media
When he found out about you liking him back...
He was shaking with excitement, his hands shaking and his fingers going numb.
He was so happy that he felt that he could die and know that at least he had you.
But when you both had sex
He was very passionate and kind with each thrust, the world spinning with every deep pound into you.
After you both had lose your innocents to one another
He was shy and very gentle with you the next day, and felt as if he fell in love with you all over again.
°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°
You softly hummed as you felt like the day had been washed in vanilla and cinnamon, the morning was somehow more lovely then before. Slowly rising up from the bed, you felt a bit of soreness in the lower half of your body.
Groaning quietly to yourself, you sat up.
A fuzzy bath robe wrapped around you yet slipped off your shoulders due to the fact it was a little bigger then usual.
Both of your bare shoulders shining with a pink blush.
Still half closed, you looked around the room almost drunkly.
Confused of why you were alone in the bed you passionately shared with the hero to all himself.
Tanjirou.
Without another minute of worry of his where abouts, the sliding doors open in a clumsy way.
A soft gasp leaving whomever it was, as the sound of dishes cling together.
"Oh oh no!" He whispered shouted as they struggled with the door and what seemed to be a tray.
You stumble onto your feet and quietly walk over to the man at the door, gently holding the door open for him to enter.
A soft smile on your face as you spoke to him, silky and smooth.
"Need help love?"
Tanjirou squaled and almost fell back from your sudden presence.
"D-Darling! Did I wake you?" Sounding worried about being to loud.
Giggling and shaking your head you replied with a 'no'.
Tanjirou had brought a tray of rice eggs and bacon that had sliced green onion and some yellow mashed potatoes that had some cheese inside, with some tea.(I wish I could eat this.)
A small blush on your face at the cute gesture.
You sat next to him and kissed his cheek.
Turning to face you immediately, his face burning a bright red. Almost whimpering at you.
Both of you grabbed your chop sticks and started to eat while you asked why he brought the food himself.
He looked away as he scratched his cheek, a blush still visible.
"Well... I just felt bad that I went to rough on you last night, I got selfish near the end and gave into my needs and probably hurt you a bit. So I asked if I could take our food here today as an apology."
His mood at change the atmosphere in the room, his face also turned into a sad frown.
You gently crested his cheek drawing his attention to you.
"You didn't hurt me love, all you did is make me fall in love with you more."
His frown jumped into a smile as a small tears popped from his eyes.
He would never be able to let you go now.
○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●●○●○
Inosuke
Tumblr media
He was very obvious with his crush on you, yet you seemed to be denser then a brick.
When he start up told you he loved you.
You had no other choice but to know.
And when you both finally got intimate.
Holy Hell.
This man was going really hard and rough with you, gentle groaning as you screamed his name. It was like he had been waiting forever to pound you into the bed.
Like a beast breeding his mate.
The next day he was in a daze almost for a week.
Not speaking to anyone but only staying by your side with flowers dancing around him.
°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°
Laying on his chest, you would occasionally snuggle into him. His arm underneath you holding you closer to him.
His other laying on his toned stomach.
You both stayed like this for a while till you had the feeling of hunger, stomach grumbling quite loud now.
You pushed yourself from his warm body and saw his state that you didn't notice before.
He seemed to be a melted puddle of happiness, his aura a heart warmed glow as he had finally had you.
A dopey grin on his face until he saw you about to leave, gripping your wrist he sat up too. Looking you in your eyes deeply.
"I'm going to get food Inosuke" you whined almost at the growing hunger.
He pouted and almost asked you to stay with his eyes alone, his body language begging for you to not leave him yet.
Sighing you stood up but helped him up too and hugged him.
"Just come with me, we can eat together." His aura rising back to a heart warming glow as you felt hims nod, grabbing his bore hat he placed it on and walked with you to find food.
Sitting outside together, munching on bean buns. Humming at the yummy flavors, you turned to look at Inosuke.
A soft smile on his mouth as he ate his bun, still happy as a puppy that got a treat.
You giggled and sat closer to him as you both enjoyed eachother presences.
The wamr spring breeze blowing soft smells of nature, it was a perfect morning with Inosuke.
○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○●○
Genya
Tumblr media
This man was so rough when it came to all but you. He just silently stays by your side and always make sure he gives you enough attention.
When he confessed to you, he was a stuttering mess which was quite out of character.
And when you both decided to have sex
O my God.
You would think he would go crazy
But when he put himself in.
He would slowly pound into you, with each thrust he would whisper how much you truly meant to him.
Telling you how long he waited to be connected with you.
And he made sure you had at least four orgasms.
So in the morning he was more prideful then ever and actually acted happy to others which made people scared for their lives.
He also marked you up quite a lot on your neck to make sure they all knew you both were together.
°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°◇°
"Ouch! G-Genya that hurts!"
You whined as Genya gently pressed each hickey that was a beautiful purple on your neck.
Small tears forming at your big loveable eyes.
The morning was bright and fresh as the two of you woke form your long night of love making, the both of you were hugging one another when you guys opened your eyes.
Genya quickly moved away from you and wore blush of crimson while yelling at you to not get the wrong idea.
Even though the two of you basically saw eachother naked.
You both chatted about how silly he was acting but Genya smirked when he saw your neck that looked like you came back from a fight.
Blushing at how many you had, he kissed each one with a cute smile on his rough face.
"You look so beautiful."
He made sure you did not hide any of his marks with your cloths and walked with you around the temple where all of the demon slayers stayed.
The others asked if you were okay since you looked like you were in a fight to the death.
You waved them off, saying it was nothing serious and they shouldn't worry to much.
As you drifted off to the reality of what gave you such mark in the first place.
Blushing and shaking the heat from your face, you saw in the corner of your eye.
Genya grinning like an idiot. But you found this quite charming.
Running to him after saying your goodbye to the others you were talking too
You hugged Genya and hid your face in his chest, a soft groan at the sudden impact.
He frantically tried to get you off him as you could tell he was blushing at your embrace, you laughed to yourself quietly as you heard his heart beating faster then anything in the world.
He was adorable in his own strong way.

Favor
⤷ dream x f!reader.
⤷ genre: angst, fluff
⤷ word count: 8.4k
⤷ requested: yes, by this lovely anon!
Tumblr media
— summary: dream asks you to pretend to be his girlfriend for a day. things only seem to go downhill from there.
It started as a favor.
On a quiet night in your apartment when you stared at your phone for way longer than your eyes could physically take and rolled around on the bed, talking to one of your best internet friends, Dream, he asked you for a favor. His voice was muffled through the mic on his phone, the one connected to his computer way cleaner, but neither of you could bother getting off FaceTime and call on Discord instead - yet you still heard him loud and clear, because you burst out laughing right after.
“What the hell did you just say?” you laughed, turning on your stomach and opening the call, now entirely focused on the timer that counted every second you spent talking to him instead of your Twitter timeline.
“It’s embarrassing, don’t make me repeat it!” And for that sole reason, you wanted him to repeat it, loud and clear.
“Is this why you were so insistent on me coming down to Florida? So I could pretend to be your girlfriend at your cousin’s wedding so your family doesn’t think you’re a loser?” you laughed, finding the situation entirely absurd as he sputtered, words mashing together, trying to defend himself.
“No! No, I wanted you to come here because we’re friends and I-I wanna meet you, this is just a… benefit, of sorts.” he replied, and you couldn’t help but laugh even harder at his poor attempt of trying to save face.
“Alright, I’ll bite.” you chuckle. “What’s in it for me?”
“Whatever you want.” he responded, much too quick. Your eyebrows raised.
“Whatever I want?” you parroted.
“Yes.” he confirmed. “I’ll buy you something, if you want; I’ll even pay you-”
“Pay me?! I’m not a whore, Dream!” 
“That is not AT ALL what I was saying!” he cut in, yelling as you burst into a new fit of laughter. “It’s just… I sort of already told them I have a girlfriend and I was just hoping you’d say yes ‘cause it’s gonna be very awkward if I show up without the girlfriend in question.” 
You put your head in your hands and he sort of dryly laughed at himself when he heard your palm hit your forehead. “What is wrong with you, man?” 
“Listen, it’s not gonna be so bad! Just stay by my side for a bit, look pretty, we’ll get some drinks, and then dip. That’s it, I promise.” he reasoned.
“And here I thought we were gonna make out in front of everyone. What’s a fake relationship if we don’t make a show out of it?” you sarcastically snickered, and could practically see his eyeroll from miles away.
“If that’s what you want, then we’ll do it, by all means.” he replied and you laughed, shaking your head in mild disbelief.
“Alright, well, if you already told them, I don’t have much of a choice, do I?” you huffed, pretending to be way more bummed out about it than you really were. “I’ll do it.” 
“Thank you so much, oh my God.” he replied and you chuckled at the sheer relief in his voice.
A few seconds of silence pass. “What’s the catch?”
“I don’t know what you mean.”
“How do you want me to publicly embarrass myself in exchange for this favor?”
“Personally, I think that forcing you to tweet that tweet about pissing yourself in bed again and also tweeting that everyone should subscribe to me isn’t “publicly embarrassing” at all.” 
“Maybe I should’ve picked a different fake girlfriend.”
“Sucks to suck, pissbaby.”
The weeks leading up to your meetup felt like years, with every treacherous minute of you two talking over muffled mics and shitty webcams feeling longer than it should, your empty apartment feeling emptier and emptier by the day. Was it even possible to miss a person you hadn’t even met yet? 
It turns out that it very much was, because as soon as the painfully long weeks were up and you were finally metres away from him, you jumped in his arms like a woman finally seeing her soldier husband after the war, standing on your tiptoes while he bent down the best he could to hug you back. His chest rumbled with a warm laugh when you turned your head ever so slightly towards his ear.
“Hello, boyfriend.” And just like that, the warm turned into a groan of faux annoyance while you burst into laughter and he pulled away, scanning your face with an equally annoyed look.
“I should’ve never asked you for that. You’re never letting it go, are you?” Yeah, you were kind of annoying with the amount of corny boyfriend jokes you threw his way - you had to give him that. But then again, he crafted his own fate and now he must accept the consequences.
“Oh I’m sorry, I didn’t realise your majesty wasn’t appreciating the work I’m doing! I just won’t show up at that wedding, how about that?” you bit back, voice dripping with sarcasm.
“You’re such an idiot.” he laughed. “Give me those bags.”
A blissful week had passed, and he hadn’t pissed you off in real life nearly as much as you thought he would. It took a bit of getting used to to his family calling him Clay instead of his beloved internet username, and you did get a couple of suggestive looks from his mother the first few times she visited - you had a couple of “eye conversations” in which she never exactly asked if you were his girlfriend, and you never exactly denied it, but you knew both of you felt the weight of the unspoken words yet you had to keep everything secret and ambiguous. Or at least you thought you did, before he revealed to you that he told his mom the two of you were dating already. Seems like the glances were knowing and not questioning. Maybe you weren’t as good at eye conversation as previously thought.
Living with him was fine, mostly because he had godly air conditioning and a house that was probably way too big for him, and also a very cute cat that followed you everywhere and made living with a man for a full two weeks way more bearable. Finding out that he can’t cook was one of the most bizarre revelations about him that you’d had in the years of your friendship, and you demanded he watched as you made chicken wraps. You complained about how he was 21 and couldn’t cook for himself, he complained about how it’s 2021 and he can just order from Chipotle or something, dude.
A week of goofing around and trying to hide the fact the two of you temporarily lived together from the internet had passed quicker than it should’ve, and for the first time in seven days, Netflix was turned off and the two of you were dressing up for the wedding, ready to set off with his parents and younger sister. He spent ages trying to convince you to match with him, which was quite literally impossible because he wore a black suit and you brought a red dress, which resulted in the two of you roaming around a local mall at 10 am, half asleep, looking for a reasonably formal black dress, because of course Dream always got his way.
An hour of arguing and your fashion tastes clashing later, you picked an off shoulder black dress with a high slit, along with a pair of pumps, both of which you forced him to pay for, and went back home, ready to glam both of you up as much as humanly possible because you were not ready to let him show up in some horrendous pair of shoes and claim to be your boyfriend. 
“Is this okay?” you questioned, turning from the mirror to face him and let him be the judge of your shimmery black and white eyelids, spending way too much time on a makeup look for a wedding of someone whose name you didn’t even know. He blinked at you as his judging gaze washed over you like a wave, scanning you up and down while you nervously cocked your head, leg tapping in faux impatient annoyance to cover up the fact that you felt like prey under his eyes. 
“It’s… yeah, it is. You look good.” Dream confirmed, nodding his head at you in a movement that was way too quick and snappy and you turn back to the mirror with a huff, watching him stare right back at you. 
“Too much, right? I should try something else.” You say, grabbing your makeup remover wipes, but he cuts in before you can even wipe a single smudge.
“No, no, it looks good, I promise. Really good. Don’t touch it.” Something way too sincere in his voice makes the air tense, more tense than usual, but you drop it, deciding to just take the compliment with a tight lipped smile.
“Okay. You ready?” you ask, and he nods, nervously straightening out his suit before looking back at you with an anxious grin.
“Yeah, I think so. Do I look fine?” 
He did. He looked more than fine. You’d never seen him actually dress up for something and put proper care into his looks - he was practically forced into doing it by you this time as well - so seeing him in an actual black suit, all formal and expensive looking, messy dirty blond hair properly combed for the first time in ages, made you gulp and look away. You sort of never understood the argument that women and men can’t be friends because you were never attracted to one of your male friends, ever. Dream was born to be an exception to every rule, it seemed. 
Realising that you abruptly looked away, you attempted to awkwardly clear your throat and smile at him.
“Yeah, you do. Let’s go.”
During the ride there, his mother seemed to finally explode and the words that have clearly wanted to pour out of her mouth for ages finally came out. You supposed it was better for the poor woman, and did your best to suppress a laugh when Dream dramatically sighed and leaned against the window when she nosily spoke up. 
“So… since when have you and Clay been together? He’s told us absolutely nothing!” She spoke up from the passenger seat, shifting to look at you, excited smile plastered on her face and you politely smiled back, mentally noting that you’d have to bully the shit out of him for acting like his mom is embarrassing him in front of his 8th grade crush.
“Ah, we’ve been friends for a long while, but we only started dating a month or so ago, because it’s hard doing long distance and all that.” you said, hoping it would sound believable enough because the two of you rehearsed this a few days ago, writing out a whole backstory from how you started dating to what exact words he used when he asked you out. There were a couple of arguments here and there, such as the fact you refused to say you confessed you’ve been in love with him for years and he refused to say he admitted he’s been your “bottom bitch” for 3 years but in the end, you somehow managed to agree on a cohesive timeline of events.
“Oh, does that mean you’re going to move here?” she questioned, and that one didn’t surprise you either, Dream having prepared a full list of answers to questions that people might ask in your notes app. He was a perfectionist to the point it got on your nerves, but that had its own perks.
“No, but I’ll definitely visit more often, and if it goes well, I might as well move here.” you smiled back at her and she nodded, going back to staring through the windshield. You and Dream exchange a relieved glance that you hope his younger sister doesn’t notice.
“Let me tell you, I was waiting for you two to get together! He always talked about you, I was getting tired of him, you know that?” she giggled and you widened your eyes at Dream who, snapping out of somewhat of a daze, immediately jumped to protest, light blush adorning his pale cheeks. 
“No, I didn’t! I did not, mom, don’t lie to her.” he argued while all she did was laugh.
“Oh come on, it’s not embarrassing now that you’re together!” she kept going, and his younger sister joined in, to make it even worse.
“Yeah, you do talk about her a lot, not gonna lie.” she spoke up and his cold glare directed her way told you everything you needed to know, hanging on by a thread not to burst out laughing. He refused to even look your way, turning back to the window as his cheeks started heating up. You couldn’t help but let out at least a bit of a giggle, placing your hand on his arm in fake comfort.
“It’s okay, you can admit it now.” your tone borderlined on mocking and he knew you’d make fun of him for days to come so he stayed silent while the rest of the car burst into laughter.
The wedding was truly beautifully set up, set in a hotel wedding venue, walls painted in pure innocent white with hints of gold here and there, and you nudged Dream as the two of you observed in awe, asking what sort of money the groom had to be able to afford this sort of expensive venue. Nudging him proved to be way easier now, because you linked arms - you originally made fun of him for suggesting to walk like that instead of holding hands like normal people, telling him you’d look like you were at your high school prom, but he persisted, and you didn’t end up looking as goofy as you thought. 
“He’s a doctor or something, pretty sure.” he replied, quick feet trudging down the long hallways, your own struggling to keep up with him, especially in your heels. He seemed to be in a rush to sit and get it over with as soon as possible so he could avoid any nosy family members, but bad luck followed him everywhere, it seems, because as soon as you two entered the place where the bride and groom would unite, at least three different pairs of eyes locked on you, and you immediately saw a fairly elderly woman get up with open arms, staring at Dream with a grin on her face. You saw him immediately tense up, and almost laughed right then and there.
“There’s my boy! Oh, you’ve grown so much, come here!” The woman looked to be in her fifties and Dream let go of your arm to nervously laugh and fall into her hug, the two rocking from side to side as she kept going on about how it seemed that he grew taller and taller every time she saw him. 
When the two pulled away, her eyes fixed on you, judgingly scanning from head to toe and you suddenly realised why Dream tensed up the way he did - old white women sure had a way to make you anxious. Thankfully, he stepped in. 
“Aunt Bessie, this is Y/N, my girlfriend. Y/N, this is aunt Bessie, my mom’s older sister.” he generously offered the explanation you were so obviously lacking and you grinned, as if that information helped you in any way, and stuck out your hand in an offer of a handshake. However, she seemed to have different plans, because as soon as she heard the words “my girlfriend” her face lit up as if she won the lottery and her lips stretched into a smile, opening her arms for you the same way she did for him. 
“Oh my God, you finally got a girlfriend? Come here!” she said, shaking her head at your outstretched hand and gesturing you to return the hug which you quite hesitantly did, politely laughing as she hugged you tighter than you’d deem appropriate. Dream came from a family of huggers - that much was apparent from him, you guess, but you weren’t exactly prepared for this.
Aunt Bessie seemed to be way louder and screechier than expected, because the word “girlfriend” boomed through the room and off the snowy walls, and at least five other family members of his turned around to check who the lucky fellow that finally got a girlfriend was. Another one of his aunts seemed to notice the commotion and suddenly, another older woman with shoulder length, dyed blonde hair, along with her two younger kids, was hurling at you as well. 
“I always complained to him that it was about time he got a girlfriend! He’s a fine young man, no wonder you picked him, honey.” Aunt Bessie shot you a knowing look and you closed your mouth in a tight lipped smile in a feverish attempt to keep down the laugh that threatened to escape you. 
“Oh yeah, he definitely is.” you giggled, looking up at Dream again who looked like he wanted the earth below his feet to open and swallow him whole. Before you could nudge him in the ribs and tease him for hours to come, the other aunt suddenly spoke up.
“Clay! Oh my gosh, is that you?” she exclaimed, shocked grin on her face, and you briefly wondered if Dream ever even visited his family. He nervously smiled, obviously not really sure who this woman even is, but he hugged her back anyway, clearly walking the line between ‘happy to see his family’ and ‘insanely uncomfortable’.
“I haven’t seen you in so long, your dad hasn’t visited since we moved to Toronto! Look at how tall you are, you’re taller than my husband now! You used to be so tiny, whatever happened to you?” Upon hearing the word Toronto he seemed to realise who he was talking to as his eyes softened, and you wondered if he really was so expressive or you could just read him that well.
“I grew up, I guess.” He awkwardly laughed and she laughed harder than she should’ve before turning to you.
“Oh, and who is this?” She said, gaze periodically switching between him and you, a knowing smile on her face which told you she definitely knew who you were.
“Ah, this is my girlfriend, Y/N. Y/N, this is… my dad’s cousin, Mabel.” He introduced, large hand landing on your back, and you felt like you were experiencing déjà vu at the way her face lit up at the mention of a girlfriend. 
“Wow, it’s so nice to meet you, Y/N!” She said, energetically shaking your hand, before turning back to Dream. “You never told us you got a girlfriend! You’re finally planning on settling down, huh?” 
Your head snapped in his direction at the speed of light when she mentioned settling down, and you could see him tense up as well as he nervously laughed.
“Yeah, we haven’t visited in a while, so nobody from the family really knew. And, uh… we haven’t really thought of that yet, we’re taking it slow and everything.” He said and you were almost in awe at how good he was at bullshitting. The woman did nothing but laugh.
“Ah, don’t lie to me, I see the way you two look at each other! It’s your wedding we’ll be attending next!” She winked, and just as Dream got ready to fake laugh once again, her family called her over and she excused herself, walking off.
The two of you hurried to your seats as well, sitting down next to his younger sister. 
“Your family is insane, man, holy shit.” You laughed in disbelief, staring at him as he shook his head, clearly as distressed as you were.
“Literally nobody in this family gives a single fuck if I’m single or not except the old aunties. And I seem to have a shit ton of those.” He muttered under his breath. “The way you look at each other - I literally didn’t even look at you properly that whole time!” 
You cackled at that one, hitting his arm. “She’s right, Clay. You’re one fine young man, eh?” You nudged him as he groaned in embarrassment, only turning your way to glare at you. 
You didn’t get to tease him for much longer, though, because the organ started playing and the bridesmaids and groomsmen lined up, the groom standing at his designated place. The bride walked in, arms locked with her father, thin white veil covering her face as she walked down the aisle, looking angelic in her puffy wedding gown. Silky brown hair fell down her shoulders, curled towards the ends, and you could see the hint of blood red lipstick beneath the veil. She looked beautiful - the groom seemed to think so as well, because you could see him tapping the corner of his eye lightly, wiping any stray tears.
She finally made it to the end and stepped to face her soon-to-be husband as her father moved away, sitting back in his chair. The wedding officiant stepped up, and held a speech much longer than it should be, which just led you to zone out. 
One day you’d be beneath that veil, wouldn’t you? One day, you’ll face your fiancé the same way she is, and you’ll let your hearts link with a string that nobody but the two of you could snap. Who would that be, though? Who could you even trust with your heart in their hands? And you’re not aware of how and why and when, but your eyes shot up at Dream, whose eyes also glinted in that way where you knew he wasn’t paying attention, and maybe he was thinking about the same thing as you. Maybe one day, you’ll be attending his wedding, forcing one of your friends to play a fake boyfriend as he wipes his tears, waiting for his bride to get to him. 
It was disheartening, the thought of being a bystander while he locks lips with somebody else. You supposed you just liked being the center of attention, so you let yourself pretend you were his bride in your daydreams. Separating daydreams from rational thoughts was mandatory, because you weren’t sure how you’d explain to yourself that you can’t stand seeing Dream marry someone else. 
Dream, the infamous hopeless romantic, still seemed out of it, maybe even a little emotional, despite not being that close with either of the two. He was probably thinking about his own wedding as well, thinking about his future, the face he’d see when he pulled back the veil.
Just then, his eyes darted to yours, and you realised you were caught staring, snapping your head back to the couple that started reading their vows by now. You started going red from the neck up, cheeks on fire as you could feel his gaze burning into you. He turned back after a few seconds, though, probably assuming you stared at him because you were bored, and neither of you spoke, even though you kind of wish you did. What even is there to say, though? 
By the time you snapped back, the “I do”s were already being said, and her veil was getting lifted, showing her beauty to everyone present, and as they kissed the whole room bursted into cheers and applause in support of the newlyweds. The two exit, teary eyed, their parents follow close behind, and that’s when Dream’s family rushes both of you to your feet, following the two into the reception hall where the actual party would take place. 
From then on, the wedding is the same as any other. The two have their first dance, they give a welcoming speech, and Dream lets you stuff your face with cake and repeatedly refills your wine glass as repayment for dragging you into this whole thing. At some point, he stretches his hand out to you and asks for a dance like a rom-com main character, and you’re not sure exactly why he did that because he’s mostly terrible at dancing, but you had fun letting him twirl you until you got dizzy anyway.
You also realised just how much he did actually need a fake girlfriend, because it seemed like every twenty minutes some sort of relative of his would walk up to the two of you and congratulate him on “finally getting a girlfriend”. You ended up bullying him for that as well, wondering just how long he’s been single for if they’re all this surprised that he’s got a girlfriend, to which he just downed the glass of water he’d been sipping for half an hour and asked you about the weather.
His family took a few pictures with the new couple - you even got to speak to the bride at some point, congratulating her and wishing the two of them well, but in the span of a few hours, the wedding was over and the newlyweds made a great exit, signifying the end of the party. The two of you were driven home by his parents, and you waved them goodbye as you stumbled to the front door, your heels insanely uncomfortable and the red wine in your stomach weighing down on you; you just wanted to get out of this dress and into a pair of pajamas and pass out on his couch in the living room. 
That’s sort of exactly what you did - you half-assed taking your makeup off, wiping down your face a couple of times, deciding that was enough before changing into some worn pajamas and plopping down on the couch next to Dream who already claimed his place and sunk into the cushion while a random movie played on the TV. The two of you basked in the comfortable silence that surrounded you, the exhausted, tired type. You both appreciated the quiet and fell asleep sitting next to each other, wedding already forgotten.
That night, he went from Dream to Clay.
The departure was bittersweet. You left two days after that, your hug at the airport tight, warm, filled with a sugary sweet feeling you couldn’t quite place and sour acid that ate away at you because you didn’t want to leave in the slightest. His arms were warm, inviting, whispering for you to stay but you left anyway, waving him goodbye, setting off to home. 
It seemed like all your problems came and went with him, because a week later, at 3 in the morning while you were up editing a video, you got an all caps message on your Discord from Sapnap.
“YOU’RE DATING DREAM?”
You blinked at your computer screen, white letters blinding you in the dark, brain trying to keep up with why he even thought that. Within 10 seconds, another message, this time from Dream.
“so i told george and sapnap that we’re dating”
“don’t kill me pls” 
Yeah, you weren’t going to kill him, per se, but he definitely made your life a lot harder than it should be. You opened Discord, Premiere Pro and the unedited video abandoned, typing back to Clay quickly.
“WHY”
He responded immediately, as one panicked man does.
“they’ve been making fun of me for being single for ages now :(“
“we already did this fake dating thing before and it went perfectly fine”
“just play along for a month or so”
“pls”
You audibly sighed. And as if he could hear you, he started typing again.
“i’ll promote you on my channel more”
“just pls do it”
“you love me, right” 
Another sigh fell from your lips before you could stop it. Of course you did, because if you didn’t, there’s no way you would be playing into this. You typed back.
“fine”
He messaged back immediately.
“THANK YOU”
“LOVE YOU <333”
With a shake of your head, you mumbled “idiot” with the ghost of a smile flashing on your face, switching back to your video, opting to ignore Sapnap for a little bit. He could wait. 
Fake dating seemed pretty damn easy during the first week - you thought you were killing it by sending corny tweets and staged selfies so he could screenshot them and send them to the groupchat, giggling on call about how oblivious they are and how you’re fooling them so good, both of you opting to ignore the parts where they claimed they knew the two of you were gonna get together eventually. It was fun, lighthearted, and an excuse to flirt with someone you had nothing official with.
As much as all your problems came and went with Clay, though, they came and went with his friends as well, especially that hopeless man Clay called his best friend. 
Because yeah, of course Sapnap was the one to accidentally spill to the public that the two of you were “dating”.
George was streaming at what was apparently a normal time in the UK, not so much for Florida, and Clay was sleeping while you were watching his stream while making some food for yourself. It was going fine, a bit of a chill stream, and you leaned against the fridge as your oven preheated, tired eyes following his Minecraft skin. 
“Sophie, thank you for the dono! ‘Hey George, I love your videos, just wanted to ask if you were speedrunning with Dream today?’” he read out, and you could faintly hear Sapnap join the stream through your headphones. 
“No I’m not, Dream’s… I don’t know what Dream’s doing right now, actually. He’s not responding to me, though. Probably talking to his girlfriend still.” he continued, exaggerating the last part mockingly, still playing into the whiny role of being upset that Clay was ditching the two of them for you. That majorly woke you up, though, as you stood straight on your feet immediately, because oh no, nobody was supposed to know.
You exited out of the Twitch app quickly, letting the stream play in the background as you tried to fish for Sapnap’s profile on Discord and text him as quick as possible, trying to warn him to not let anybody know, but before you could do it, you heard his laughter clear in the stream.
“Yeah, Y/N, his sweetie poo.” Sapnap said, causing George to laugh even louder, before moving onto the next topic, and your heartbeat picked up an insane amount, nails loud and probably damaging your phone screen as you typed as quickly as humanly possible to yell at him because this was not planned, at all.
You heard him go quiet after you shot him a couple of messages over Discord (“SAPNAP” “ARE YOU FUCKING STUPID” “WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU” “NOBODY KNOWS YET” “IM GONNA FUCKING KILL YOU”), type something to George who then fell quiet as well for a few seconds, pure horror on his face, and then went back to streaming as if nothing happened while Sapnap profusely apologised to you on his and George’s behalf.
No apology could fix what had already been done, though, and you were left alone with the warzone that was Twitter who had already speculated the two of you were dating long before while Clay peacefully slept somewhere in his house at 4 am in Florida. You bombarded him with messages and waited until he woke up ‘cause what were you even supposed to do?! 
You chose to spend your time finishing the pizza you were originally supposed to make and almost burnt your whole apartment down because you forgot the oven was on for a whole hour while yelling at Clay’s idiotic best friends. You yelled at Sapnap, who kept apologising to you, you yelled at George, who yelled back that it’s not that big of a deal because people were bound to find out anyways, and you yelled at Clay, because he was the guilty one somehow for not being awake during your breakdown. 
He did eventually wake up though, to the shitshow that were his notifications with at least thirty messages from each of you, messages from his other YouTube friends who were fairly surprised, and his entire fanbase going ham on Twitter. He was surprisingly calm about it - calmer than you were, anyways, and sheepishly said over the phone that the fake dating thing may have to go on for a little longer since you couldn’t just date for a month and then break up, and you were sort of okay with that.
And of course, the business side of him awoke at that moment, and he giddily told you about the amount of views the two of you could pull if you did the same shit you do with George and Sapnap anyway, but on livestream. 
You rolled your eyes.
And then agreed anyway. 
And so, the charade began.
His Twitter statement was up shortly, telling the people that you’d been dating for a couple of weeks and weren’t planning to tell anybody yet until a certain someone spilled their guts live, and the fact Dream was dating someone, let alone another popular streamer, took the internet by storm. You expected hate, and you got quite a bit of that, but the people that had shipped the two of you before were certainly more than delighted and a lot of Clay’s fans were supportive. 
Now, both of you had excuses to do chill streams together and just hang out and you took the opportunity and ran with it. 
You’d sit and play Geoguessr or just try and speedrun Minecraft a bunch of times for hours on end, doing stupid bits and things you’d be doing offline anyways, with a little more flirting than usual, because that’s what made it interesting.
“Oh this is France, for sure.” you claimed one night, two or three weeks after the secret was officially out, chewing on the fries you bought for this specific occasion, streaming on his alt to a few thousand people. 
“You think so? It could be Belgium, too.” he responded, humming in thought as he looked around.
“I know so.” you responded.
“How?” 
“I just do. Gamer intuition, babe.” you said, and he wheezed at your response, repeating the words gamer intuition under his breath.
“No, seriously. It is France, I know it is, I’ve seen so many pictures of that place I know it like the back of my hand now. That’s Lyon, or something.” you continued, plopping another french fry into your mouth.
“You have? Why do you know so much about France, that’s so random.” he responded, opening the map and pointing to France, although he keeps looking around, unsure of his decision.
“I dunno, I like it there. I wish I could move there.” you replied.
“Why, though?” 
“It’s pretty and heavily romanticised! Just like me!” you joked and he laughed, before letting you continue. “I dunno, it’s the city of love. Be a little romantic.” 
“The… the city of love is whatever city the two of us are in.” he said, and it took a few seconds for you to process the joke before letting out a fake disappointed sigh.
“I can’t believe I’m dating someone as corny as you.” 
At that, he bursts into wheezes, and you follow along, enjoying the sound of his laughter coursing through your headphones more than you used to a few weeks back. It feels nice, feels right, acting like this. You like calling him your boyfriend more than you think you should. 
A few weeks go by, and it feels all too natural. It feels too natural, talking to him first thing in the morning when you’ve barely even had your coffee, calling him pet names, throwing sweet words at each other publicly like they mean nothing. It feels all too natural, and nice, and all too right, and you don’t even notice when the two of you cross the line between public and private, and you’re stuck making stupid jokes about making out when you first see each other when there’s nobody to witness them except the walls of your rooms, but you don’t like thinking about that, because you know it’ll bring nothing but confusion. The current this that the two of you have is perfect to you, perfectly lighthearted and funny and fun, and you intend on keeping it that way, refusing to think about it in any way past jokes.
That is, until you can’t anymore.
It’s late, again, and you’re staring at his contact name on your phone screen, lazily lying on the bed. It reminds you of a night from roughly 3 months ago, when your whole friendship seemed to change in the few seconds it took you to process what he’d asked of you, and it feels weird, but nice.
“My mom really likes you, you know?” Clay breaks the quiet that you’ve learned to appreciate in his presence, and you exhale through your nose, the noise just short of a chuckle.
“Yeah?” You laugh, and he does as well.
“Yeah.” He reaffirms. “She thinks you’re a great girlfriend. Apparently I seem brighter ever since we got together.”
You laugh again. “I am a great girlfriend, to be fair. She’s totally right.” 
“Well, I wouldn’t know that. If you’re as good of a girlfriend as you pretend to be, though, then you’re amazing.” He says, and words fly out of your mouth before you can stop them. 
“Yeah? You wanna find out?” The flirty nature is nothing strange to the two of you, but this time it feels kinda different, it feels like you’re stepping into dangerous territory that there’s no coming back from. You feel like you’ve ruined everything, for some reason.
He laughs, like normal, though. He laughs like nothing happened at all, and you’re so, so grateful for that.
“Sure, let’s do it. You’re about to unpack the full Clay boyfriend experience.” He snickers and you laugh as well. 
“That means I just unlock the dick as well as the personality.” you respond, quick as always, and the wheeze that escapes him is so loud that it makes you laugh too.
“...Unlock the dick…” he repeats through another wheeze and you nod, laughing.
“Yeah! I mean I’m literally experiencing the boyfriend experience without actually having a boyfriend, it’s fuckin’ great.” you say and he hums.
“You could have one, though.” 
The implications are crazy, his words are crazy, he’s crazy and everything that he could mean and couldn’t mean by that is driving you crazy too, brain faltering and heart seeming way too big for your chest to contain it. It’s silent.
“I could, I guess.” 
You choose to say, and he switches the topic naturally, like he never said anything.
Things are never the same again.
It’s not in a bad way. Sure, it is kind of a bad way for the feelings you’re trying to push down inside you, a bad way for hot nights when the unbearable heat forces you to stay up even when you don’t want to and you have no choice but to think about why you feel the way you feel as you melt into the burning sheets below you, a bad way for when he jokes about finding somebody else and you feel your stomach churning. A bad way for realising that this fake dating thing is really getting to you, but not a bad way in general.
Maybe it’s in a good way. Maybe the underlying implications whenever he makes jokes about making the relationship real are good, maybe the way he calls you in the middle of the night when he’s anxious and freaking out and defends himself by saying: “You’re my girlfriend, you’re always there for me, I just figured I could call you.” and you end up wondering if it’s possible to say jokes in such a vulnerable state or if he’s serious is good, maybe the way it’s been a few months and he won’t tell his own best friends that it was a joke the whole time is good, maybe the way you confronted him about it and he said he likes having you as his girlfriend is good. 
Maybe the way the two of you are always walking the line between joking and being serious, between being friends and something more, between lies and pranks and emotional investment and fear of committing, and the way you’re always trying to push the other off, is good. 
The fans love it. The fanart is incredible (serves especially well for those hot nights when you can’t fall asleep and you scroll, watching yourself fall in love with Clay in every universe, tales told by people who observe your story and find it worthy enough to retell in their own words, to take the love you pretend to have and turn it into something real), people love to gush over the compliments he sprinkles in at random times during conversation and the general flirty dynamic is loved by many, pulling in more views and attraction for you. 
And you suppose that’s good too, but at some point, the good warps into bad, bad warps into terrible, and you wonder if this is all even worth the sleepless nights, wondering if he feels the same way.
Those thoughts haunt you more and more often every day. When you wake up, and text him first thing in the morning, your brain acknowledges that the camera is off - nobody’s around, people aren’t listening, so why are you still playing the role of a girlfriend and starting up a conversation with him when you haven’t even brushed your teeth properly? When you’re editing in the middle of the day and he calls to keep you company, making more stupid boyfriend jokes, your stomach flips in a weird way that makes you hate him, hate the way he can joke about these things so freely, like it doesn’t hurt him. Like it doesn’t affect him like it affects you. 
But, as much as you wish you could hate him, you couldn’t bring yourself to, and that was the worst part. Because, in reality, whenever he laughed you’d smile without realising you did, whenever anything exciting happened to you he was the first one you went to, whenever you wanted to laugh or cry or sit in silence for hours or complain you always went to him, the one person who you know would listen. In reality, whenever he made a joke about giving up on the fake dating and making it real, you wished so bad that he was serious this time, that this was what it took and he’d crack and all of your suffering would end.
It eventually happens.
It’s a pretty chilly morning, birds chirp outside and the sun that slowly rises is covering the kitchen floor in a golden hue as you pour milk into your cereal with one hand and hold your phone in the other, letting Clay ramble about whatever it was this time, when he brought it up.
“So, when do you wanna come down to Florida again?” he asks casually, and you almost drop the gallon of milk in your hand. 
“What?” 
“I said, when are you coming down to Florida again? Last time you came was pretty fun.” he says, and an empty silence follows. There’s an unsaid “I miss you” that you don’t hear, and he’s too afraid of saying it. 
“Florida wasn’t exactly on my schedule this month, man.” you say, placing your phone on the counter for a second. Clay sure knew how to surprise a person.
“Well put it down, then.” he jokes, and you hum.
“What, you got another wedding coming up?” you giggle and he groans - you never really stopped making fun of him for that wedding.
“No, I don’t. Can’t a man just miss seeing his beloved girlfriend?” It’s unbelievable how quickly dread can wash over you as soon as he makes one of those jokes. You were convinced the mix of anxiety and butterflies that appears in your stomach was gonna kill you sometime soon.
“He can, he’s just being weirdly insistent.” you argue nonetheless. “But sure, I’ll consider it.”
You do more than consider it - in a few weeks, you’re back at the airport, and falling into his arms has never given you such an adrenaline rush in your whole life. Something about having him wrapped around you, close to you, the warmth of his body radiating into yours sent you spiraling, head clouded with nothing but love and the fact that you wish you could stay there forever. You wished you could press pause and cherish the moment, let yourself bask in that feeling of pure love, pure adoration that you helplessly drowned in. But you couldn’t, and you left his arms feeling oddly empty. 
Hiding the fact that you were unapologetically head over heels for him proved to be a hundred times more difficult when you were right there, next to him, talking to him, when you could just kiss him any second, feel his lips on yours and nobody would stop you - the opportunity was right there, looming over you, the devil on your shoulder taunting you, telling you to do it. 
You got to wake up in the same house as him, watch his hair stick out in different directions and his raspy morning voice as he complained about the smell of your coffee, watch his eyes glint whenever he talked about something he liked and observe as he carried around Patches like a little baby. You got to experience every bit of domestic without the consequences of committing, and you wondered just how far this would go. For how much longer would the two of you blatantly ignore the fact that you were a couple that slapped the title “fake” on it because you were cowards who refused to admit what this truly was. 
Not for long, apparently, because you grew tired, and decided to put an end to everything on one random Thursday night - and if he hated you forever for it, then so be it. 
You were sitting on his couch, watching a random movie together, drowning in one of his Dream hoodies while you chewed the popcorn he made. It was dark outside, just past midnight, and you could see the branches of a tree swaying calmly through one of the nearby windows - the silence while he scrolled through his phone lazily was comforting too, everything was lazy and serene and it would’ve been perfect if it wasn’t for the constant anxiety that gripped you by the throat whenever you were in his close proximity, the nervousness that killed you, the upset feeling of wanting to cuddle up with him but knowing you can’t because you guys are just friends, and nothing more.
The couple on the screen kiss while a violin plays in the background - how fitting. Maybe that’s what pushes you to the edge, or maybe you were just that sick and tired.
You were exhausted, beyond exhausted. Your eyes were tired, the anxiety was morphing into annoyance and anger and you were ready to give up on it all. If this ended the friendship, at least you two had a good run. Your heart couldn’t take it anymore.
“You know, you still owe me a favor in return for pretending to be your girlfriend.” you say, and you sound gone, zoned out, more than you wish you were. You hear his phone turn off with a click.
“Yeah? What do you want?” Clay asks, and you blankly stare at the TV for a few seconds before turning to face him, eyes burning. 
“Kiss me.” 
It’s silent. The characters on screen are arguing. You hear the wind through one of his open windows.
“What?” he asks, voice cracking, and his expression falls. You’ve fucked it. Oh well.
“I want you to kiss me. Kiss me like you mean it. Kiss me like someone’s watching and you wanna make it believable.” you say, eyes boring into his, your words having nowhere near as much of an effect on yourself as they do on him. Your eyes sting like they’re being lit on fire, and your throat is sort of closing up, but it’s fine. “Let me have this before I go, because once I leave, I don’t wanna do this anymore, Clay. I can’t pretend like I don’t want you to introduce me as your girlfriend and fully mean it. I can’t lie to your face anymore.” 
Silence. Deafening silence, once again.
“I love you.” he blurts out, and you don’t even register it at first. “I don’t want this shit to be fake either. God, I really don’t. It hasn’t been fake for a while now, at least not on my part. I’m sorry, it’s just- it was easier to keep this bit going than it was to actually admit that I’m… into you.”
And once again, the room falls into silence, much like it always does whenever the two of you share moments like these.
And then, you burst into laughter.
“So… so you mean to tell me, that both of us have liked each other this whooooole fucking time, and just refused to admit it and ‘pretended to date’ instead?” you burst into giggles, and he looks sort of hesitant to laugh, but he does anyway.
“I mean… yeah? I was waiting for you to call me out for doing all that when nobody was watching! Why did you never call me out?! Don’t blame me, I made it so damn obvious that I wanted you!” he protests, and you almost can’t believe what you’re hearing.
“Excuse me? You should’ve just fucking told me instead of making a million and one jokes about how I’m your girlfriend! We’re not in middle school, Clay!” you argue.
“Yeah, but I thought you’d catch on and talk to me about it at some point! You never called me out for anything!”
“So what, I’m supposed to just read your mind now? You’re fucking unbelievable.” you huff, crossing your arms over your chest and turning away in annoyance. As soon as a warm hand lands on your shoulder, though, the annoyance melts like wax under fire, leaving nothing behind.
“I still haven’t returned that favor, you know?” he whispers in your ear, breath fanning your neck, closer than he should be. The hairs on your neck stand up as you turn back to Clay, who wore a mischievous grin and a glint in his eyes that suggested no good. 
You suppose bad can be good, sometimes. 
As his lips press onto yours, that theory is proven true, because he sends a flicker of fire burning down your spine, spreading into your limbs, making your fingertips electric as you pulled him in closer, hand snaking up to grip at his hair - the everlasting grin against your own proves, once again, to be no good as his hands slip under your hoodie and grip your sides, but you think you enjoy this sort of bad. 
They sneak up further, and you hear him chuckle into the kiss as your insides melt at his touch. The two of you silently agree that maybe he should ask for favors more often.

who wants peddie post-anubis fluff in bullet-point form :P
anubis reunion right before a new term is set to start
they’ve convinced whoever’s in charge of the school at this point to let them have the house to themselves for like. a week
(it’s a resident turnover year at anubis so all the rooms are empty)
first order of business? inducting everyone into sibuna who hadn’t been already
it’s mostly honorary now, but also just in case something happens to nina while the og members aren’t around
(thankfully, nothing does)
at some point, they’re sitting around and catching up and jerome (slightly tipsy) demands to know why eddie hasn’t “put a ring on it” yet
eddie splutters some excuses about wanting to finish uni/grad school/certifications/buying a house/getting stable jobs first while patricia nods along
(joy’s told her on more than one occasion that she could just propose herself. 
but she knows eddie really wants to, and she’s going to honor that.)
anyway. now that he’s caught up on everything, mick insists on exploring the tunnels more
mara too—she’s fascinated by the architecture of the school (“what do you mean, the library and sweetie’s office and that shack in the woods all connect here?”)
so they spend some time down there cleaning/exploring.
willow also does some cleansing rituals which, oddly enough, does put the others at ease
but they tire of it after a few days and move on to other things like seeing how many places KT’s key can open around the school 
the couples initially take the bedrooms while everyone else gets the chairs and couches in the hall
patricia and eddie immediately claim the bigger of the girls’ rooms, annoying everyone else (but hey, first come first serve)
however. all of them just end up having giant slumber parties in the living room every night
things get a little funky on friday, though. patricia suddenly wakes up early that morning to find that eddie’s no longer next to her.
she decides she must be dreaming and falls back asleep
when she brings it up the next morning, he pretends to have no idea what she’s talking about
the other girls plan a trip into town to get mani-pedis “for old time’s sake” as if that’s something any of them except amber did while they were in school.
joy insists that (read: makes) patricia get a really elegant set of acrylics she never would have chosen on her own
they come back and the boys, who were in charge of dinner, gleefully show off their tower of marshmallow sandwiches
ambers like “absolutely not” while joy mumbles something about having bad memories associated with that particular meal
nina suggests mashed potatoes and everyone else shouts her down
while they’re arguing about the nutritional value of graham crackers, eddie asks patricia if she’d like to go on a walk with him
“this week has been great but we haven’t really had much time together, just the two of us”
after that, how can she disagree?
“ok but one rule, yacker—”
“who makes rules for going on a walk?”
“just. humor me a bit.” “ok fine.”
“I lead the way, you just follow. there’s something I want to show you.”
and so they set off
they go to the field first.
“football >> soccer.” “they’re the same thing, doofus” “nO”
“here’s where we accidentally destroyed victor’s begonias. and here’s where you pushed me into a pile of manure because you had a crush and didn’t know how to tell me”
“i did NOT”
“well why else would you have—” “shut up”
they reach the crypt entrance in the woods. “oh eddie here’s where you jumped off a roof because you were so worried about me”
at to the clearing— “let’s take a moment of silence to honor our fallen friend.” “who, sophia?” “no, yacker, me. i died too, remember”
they wind back to the school and eddie pulls out a key from his pocket. “stole it from eric after grad. it should still work, i bet they haven’t changed the locks in the past century.” so they go in
their old lockers are obviously being used by other students now. “hey here’s where i kissed you.”
“ok if you start pointing all of those out, we’ll be here for days”
“your words, not mine 🤪”
at the science labs— “remember when you put moss in dad’s cookie”
at the pool— “i’m thinking about that one gym lesson where you fell in fully-clothed” “and instead of helping me you just stood there and laughed!” “excuse me, i’d just curled my hair. i wasn’t about to ruin that”
on their way back, they pass by the gatehouse. patricia shudders. “that place still gives me the creeps”
eddie draws closer to the door anyway. he stops and turns to her. “i don’t know if i ever told you this but…this is where I realized I loved you.”
she frowns. she doesn’t remember—oh.
they walk in silence for a bit after that. it’s starting to get chilly out; he wraps and arm around her waist, pulling her closer
ten minutes later—“wait, eddie, where exactly are we going?”
“I still have something to show you, remember?”
they finally stop right in front of the frobisher library. the door’s open.
eddie: “you know, this was actually a nice place to study”
“study?? the only thing you did in here was commit two murders within minutes of each other.”
“I didn’—actually yeah that’s fair”
he pushes open the bookcase hiding the tunnel entrance. “come on, let’s go back this way.”
“…why”
“reverse trust exercise. except you’re not blindfolded. cmon, you owe me this!”
she explains each of the task rooms in detail when they pass by. he knows most of it already but it’s almost cathartic for her, so he lets her talk
they get to the very end and patricia’s about to push open the door to the study when eddie stops her. “here’s where i need you to close your eyes. this is a trust exercise, remember?”
so she does and lets him guide her into the study.
“ok you can open them now.”
it takes patricia a moment to adjust to the brightness that greets her, but when she does, she can’t do anything but just gasp.
the desk and furniture are gone; instead, rose petals are strewn about the floor. every inch of space on the walls not occupied by shelves is covered in what looks like a giant picture collage of…them?
“eddie, what is this? did you—when? how?”
he shyly takes her hand and leads her around the room.
the collages form a little timeline of their time together after they left school, starting with the grad party photo booth strip right next to the tunnel entrance. there are polaroids from various dates they went on through university, pictures his mother took over their breaks. 
an entire section is dedicated to random candids of her she didn’t even know he took, let alone saved.
then they reach their adult lives. college commencement, airport selfies from when they were doing long-distance while she finished grad school. 
moving in together, that brief stint where they fostered kittens without their landlord knowing, buying their first house. 
vacations to hawaii and vancouver and back home to visit her parents.
but it isn’t the occasions themselves that are captured in the images – it’s the look of happiness on their faces, the warmth shared between them. the love.
“what’s this section for?” she asks, pointing to a small blank square right next to the door.
eddie takes a deep breath.
“this.” 
and he drops to one knee.
the world comes to a standstill.
“holy shit”
“patricia williamson—”
“yes.”
“yacker, I haven’t even asked—”
“fine, make it quick.”
“ok, ok. patricia williamson, every minute with you has been the best of my life. from arguing in the lounge to saving the world to almost burning down the kitchen more times than I can count, I can’t imagine a life without you right by my side. will you marry me?”
she says nothing but just tackles him to the floor
“hey, it’s cozy down here” “shut up and kiss me, doofus”
afterwards, as they make their slow ascent from the cellar to the house, she asks him why he chose the study of all places.
“it just felt full-circle to do it here, at anubis.”
“but the cellar???”
“the only place w any privacy. and, well, I didn’t think you’d appreciate being asked on the crocodile bridge. so.”
“did anyone else know?”
he shakes his head. “I just wanted it to be between the two of us.”
he pauses. “well, joy threatened me within an inch of my life if I didn’t get a move on within the next month, so I had to tell her something, but she thinks I’m going to pop the question when we get home.”
“lmao”
“she also said she wants a ‘pretty ring picture’ in the announcement, whatever that means”
“oh, that explains the french-tips on my nails.”
they agree to keep the engagement a secret till they get home but
they both have the subtlety of a baby elephant 
(and an hour into their 2.5-hour ‘walk’ kt got worried, checked the study, and saw eddie’s set up)
so everyone in the house knows within minutes of them emerging
which honestly works out for the best because of the amount of teasing they have to endure the rest of the weekend (at least they’re getting it all at once)
the end <3

Rin gasped as the ribbon -the last remains of Ariadne- disappeared from her hand. It was gone. Just like Sakura. Just like Shirou, when he walked out of her life, only for her to find out years later that he was executed. Just like Setanta, whose blood was now dry on her shirt. Rin let out a shaky breath. This lostbelt's king is dead, and it's time for everything to fall apart. "Tohsaka! What are you doing? We need to get out of here!" Chaldea's master called out. Yeah, this place is falling apart. Soon, one of these rocks will come down to crush her. "Tohsak-" Rin shot Hakuno's shoulder with a Gandr. The shot only grazed her skin, leaving Hakuno and Mash confused and on alert. "I'm not going with you." Rin glared at them. "Leave, or I'll kill you." "Are you kidding me?! This is not the time for-" "Face me! Chaldea!" Rin shot again, but Mash blocked it, and looked at her with somber eyes. "Either face me, or leave me!" "Tohsaka-senpai…" Mash's eyes begged her to stop. "Is this really how you deal with an enemy?" Rin smirked. "You just beg them to come with you? You really think you can do anything with that soft attitude? You think being 'good' and 'helpful' will turn everything around? Well, it doesn't!" Rin's smirk faded, and her expression was just tired. She was too tired to even feel angry anymore. "Good people never get the rewards they deserve. That's the kind of world you're protecting." Hakuno's expression hardened. Was she upset? Good. This will make things a lot easier. Hakuno walked towards her, and Rin continued to point her finger, ready to shoot. "Do you get it, now? You just have to get rid of anyone who stands in your way." Kill me. Rin's eyes quietly begged. Please let me die. Life has been nothing but hell. Hakuno suddenly punched her, making Rin stumbled backwards. Now that's a pleasant surprise. "Senpai?!" Mash was surprised. "I guess you're not all soft…" Rin spit out some blood, and laughed. "You can pack a punch, who would have thought?" "I jusr figured that you might need a wake up call." Hakuno then pulled Rin by her coat's collar. "So you're just going to let Setanta's death go in vain?! Did everything Orpheus say to you mean nothing? You've tricked Ariadne all this time, and you think you can just get away and not deal with the consequences?" "Yeah. Pretty much." Rin shrugged. "Would be better for us both if you let me just die." "Well if you want to kill yourself so badly, do it when I'm not around!" Hakuno tightened her grip. "I can't let you die." Rin hated this woman. Hakuno's expression looked pained, as if she was trying not to cry. What's with her? Why couldn't she let her die in peace? Everyone Rin has ever loved is dead. "Fine. Let's die together, then." Rin pulled out her gems. "I can make all of these explode right now. I can just take you with me." "Sure you can. You can't even die properly." Hakuno glared at her. "You couldn't even kill me." "What?" "I was barely conscious when we both fell. You had your knife against my throat, and yet you threw the knife away." Rin sighed. "Right… The knife." Before Hakuno could process what she was saying, Rin pushed away and grabbed her knife. "Idiot!" Rin dug the knife into her chest, much to Hakuno and Mash's horror. "You idiot!" Hakuno was quick to catch her. "Mash! Quick let's carry her out of here!" "Didn't think… The last person I'd see was you, but oh well." Rin's chuckle was cut off with a cough. "A lame face to be sure, but at least it's not a Matou. That's a special brand of ugly." "Tohsaka-senpai! Please save your strength!" Mash carefully carried her. "We'll heal you once we get back!" "Idiot… The point is that I don't…" Rin sighed. The sharp pain in her chest made it hard to talk. Oh well. "You won't die!" Hakuno said as they ran. So stubborn. But… So kind as well. Rin smiled, and closed her eyes. She was hoping to see Sakura again, but realistically speaking, she was probably going to hell. Still, it's a nice tought, isn't it? Gathering around with the people she loved under the cherry blossoms? What a nice dream… That would be…

The Kappa Situation (Ray Palmer x GN!Reader)
Tumblr media
Pairing: Ray Palmer (The Atom, LoT ver.) x Gender Neutral Metahuman Reader Rating: Explicit Words: 1915 Summary: You get injured, you get some flashbacks, Ray is a darling angel. Sexy times. Note: Mashed two requests together, then changed some wording to make it gender neutral since gender is sometimes so unnecessary. Uhh reader has the power to manipulate magnetic fields. Oh and a Kappa is a creature from Japanese folklore.  Tags: flashbacks, love confessions, idiots in love, oral sex, and hinted sub!Ray... ok it is kinda there. OH AN NO BETA BECAUSE I AM LAZY 
The ring moved slowly parallel to the metal bar it was around. With brows knitted in concentration, you manipulated the magnetic micro fields around it to move it to the finish without it touching the bar. You just passed your personal record. A smile formed on your lips as you moved it further. That was until the door to your room opened and the sound disturbed your concentration. The edge of the ring touched the bar lightly and a loud buzzer hurt your ears in punishment. 
“Dammit! What do you want?” You turned around to find Ray in the door. He looked at you like a kicked puppy. “Ah Ray… Can this wait? I am in the middle of training.” He frowned. Normally he would have gone already and given you your space. 
“I feel like you’re kind of avoiding me. Did I do something wrong?” He tilted his head. It was so cute. You tore your eyes away from him and grabbed the energy shake off the side table. That puppy look was exactly what you were trying to avoid. Dammit there were fairy godmothers and elves and whatnot wandering the timeline. There was no time for your dumb crush. Lives were at stake. 
“No, not at all, don’t worry about it. I just have been concentrating on improving my microfields. You know that if I refine it I could generate electricity right? That skill will be necessary eventually and I don’t want to be the idiot who did not train enough to get us out of regular Legends shenanigans.” You sat down on your bed and took a good swig from the shake, concealing your face with the bottle. 
“Oh… oh yeah ok,” Ray replied and you thought for a moment that he was going to leave you alone. However, he did not move from his spot. You kept on drinking, side-eyeing him. Your eyes raked over the perfect-fit jeans and the dark red sweater he wore on top of it. Oh how he was a champion of hiding his perfect body. When you came to his head, he had his eyes on you as well. You lowered the bottle and cleared your throat. “Can I uh…” Ray started, “God… I just want the truth. I don’t like people not liking me, especially not if I like them very much.” He ran his hands through his hair during his mini-ramble. The dark brown locks stood up in all directions now. 
“I like you too, Ray. I promise, I am not upset with you.” You chose your words carefully as you rose to your feet. Ray caught on your words. He was used to realising that your ‘better’s never meant ‘good’ and your ‘no lies’ did not mean ‘full truth’ either. You wondered when he had learned your loopholes so quickly. 
He walked inside, the door whooshing close behind him and the situation suddenly felt so intimate. “Not upset then… Perhaps disappointed?” You sighed and shook your head. He kept coming closer. “Then… Sad? Are you sad?” You chuckled and shook your head again. “Furious?” Another shake of the head. Another step closer. He stopped walking when there was half an arm’s length between you. He was talking, but you could not take your eyes off his perfect lips. You were so smitten. Dear Lord, have mercy on your soul. 
Inhibition slipped you as you finally looked up at Ray. Your intense stare shut him right up. “Ray Palmer, I have been avoiding you because I’m super into you. Now please leave me alone or kiss me.” No one could shut up Ray Palmer like you. The boy scout with so many words turned into a gaping fish at your words. Since he was not jumping at the opportunity to kiss you, you pointed towards the exit, but he took a gentle hold of your wrist. 
“No, no, I choose kissing… just… can we wait with that? I am pretty sure my breath still smells and I wouldn’t want our first kiss to be… gross… not that… I mean, ha, I am into you too, super into you, super duper…” 
You did not kiss that day. The memory was cut off with a dull ache in your chest. You opened your eyes, squinting at the ceiling. “Where am I?” You mumbled to yourself. There was shuffling and suddenly your boyfriend was in your vision. He was rambling. How typical. “What happened?” You, very intelligently, inquired, cutting through the words with only two of your own. 
Ray blinked at you. “You saved my life, don’t you remember?” As he stared at you with concern, you frowned, trying to remember. 
The kappa ran between the trees and the bushes. Ray was hot on its tail, his smaller size allowing easy navigation through the highly vegetated area. It was a wonder how Japan from the future had dense forests within the city serving as a park. You moved into position near the park’s entrance. You saw the green creature run right past it and you started running parallel to it. The sidewalk was full, even at this late hour. People yelled at you as you pushed them aside. You were just in time to see Ray change back to his normal size and make a jump to catch the kappa. 
He rolled over the sidewalk and right into the street. You sprinted as you spotted a hover car coming right at him. “Ray! Move!” You exclaimed, totally forgetting about your comm. You stopped in the middle of the crossroads and stretched out your arms. The magnetic field repulsed the hover car, slowing it to a stop right in front of Ray. You let out a sigh of relief, before you found yourself off your feet, right before everything went black. 
“Ah yeah, a car. You’re welcome, by the way.” You held your arm out and Ray took it to help you up. He helped you out of the medbay. Apparently you were all good, just bound to be sore with some minor injuries to your rib that Gideon could not fix for you. “Where are the others?” 
Ray was the perfect gentleman as he guided you to your new, shared room. “Still taking care of that kappa. We took it almost to the waverider, but it got away before the hatch was fully down.” You sighed, making a joke about how they were hopeless without you. Once in your room, Ray pulled you close and let you lean against him as he undressed you. You smiled as you smelled the mixture of his deodorant and grime of a long day. You helped him minimally, letting him undress you like a doll. Once you were down to nothing, he pushed you down onto the bed. “Don’t lie down yet. I’ll clean you up a little so you can sleep comfortably.” 
You hummed and let him take care of you. Ray returned shortly after with a bucket of water and a small towel. He was methodical and careful as he wiped down your skin. You closed your eyes and let your head hang back. The second he was done, you carefully lowered yourself down onto the bed, legs still hanging off the edge. Ray walked over to your dresser to get you some underwear. You whistled at him. He looked over his shoulder at you, an unspoken inquiry on his face. “I am naked on our bed and there is no one on the ship. Don’t you want to make use of that?” You winked at him, making him laugh. 
“As much as I would love to - for the record I really, really want to - I don’t think we should have sex with your injuries.” You pouted at him and trailed a hand down to your sex, rubbing yourself slowly, teasingly. “Uhm, uh…” You smirked when Ray was clearly having doubts about his righteous decisions. You saw his eyes follow the path of your fingers. “Just oral? I can do that, you can just lie there.” You failed at suppressing the grin that spread over your face. As he gestured to your body while suggesting you’d just lie there.
You chuckled and beckoned him over with your fingers. “I’ll take anything from you, but please lose your clothing as well.” Ray pulled his black shirt off in one smooth motion. He then unceremoniously pushed his jeans and underwear down together. Ray dropped to his knees like a man about to worship a god. He put your legs over his shoulders, removed your hand and got to work with his tongue. He lapped over you with languid strokes. Your eyes closed and your head fell back onto the bed. A happy sigh left you as his glorious tongue licked up your taste. 
“I love doing this,” Ray announced between licks as if you were not awfully aware of how happy he could be from just servicing you with his mouth. He teased you with only the tip of his tongue, before going back to those slow, long licks. You sighed and put a hand through his soft hair, pulling a little so he would put his lips around your most sensitive parts. Just one tug was all it took for Ray to drop the teasing and just get to work with sucking and licking and moving his head like he would die from a lack of your pleasure. 
You moaned at the sudden spike of pleasure. Your back naturally arched off the bed and you winced at the pain that stabbed through your ribcage. And just like that, the pleasure stopped and Ray was looking you over with saliva still dripping down his chin. “Are you ok? Are you in pain?”
“Yes and yes… You are so adorable,” you sighed as you shifted. “Sorry, could not help myself from moving. Having you suck on me like that is just very good.” You smiled sheepishly at him. Ray nodded and stroked your cheek with his thumb. He told you to relax as he went down again. He put your legs over his shoulders and you were expecting him to go back to what he was doing before, but instead you felt his tongue circle your hole. “Fuck Ray, please,” you whimpered at the idea of his tongue inside you. 
Your boyfriend was nothing if not obedient. He gently pushed his slick tongue inside, fuckign you with it. The pleasure was just as good, just less intense. While it was previously like bullets of pleasure through your body, this was like a continuous stream of pleasure that would slowly send you overflowing. You removed your hand from his head to touch yourself, your fingers gliding easily over yourself with Ray’s saliva still there. You allowed to let all the soft sounds escape you, being free in your expression of pleasure. 
Ray was a champ, who did not stop until he heard you gasp and then a hand landed on your abdomen to steady you as his tongue slid back up to replace your hand. An exclamation of pleasure left your lips, the feeling overruling the slight ache of your injuries protesting against the muscles tensing from your orgasm. You were panting as much as you could once the pleasure subsided. Ray rubbed your thighs for a hot minute, until he got up again. Your eyes were unfocused staring at the ceiling until they eventually closed, your body giving in to the exhaustion.

May I request Ogun with a Black shy female reader doing a training session that leads to a little bit more 🙈
Anon please
You’re a second-generation pyrokinetic (Like Joker and Maki). Idk why but I made up in my head that you have flint-bottomed tap-dancing shoes that briefly light when you scrape your feet against the floor…..so that’s where you get your fire from 🤣🤣🤣
This one is a bit longer than normal cause i gotta build the tension
I am terrible at action scenes bruh
Tumblr media
Chug- lift heels, slide forward, and then drop the heels at the end of the slide forwards
“Hey, Y/n!” You look up from the bland mashed potatoes and corn Company 5 had prepared. It was a hot Sunday morning and your partner in crime was as excited as ever. He stood a few feet away at the back entrance in the cafeteria. Cocking a thumb behind him, he dawns a toothy grin. “Want to play a quick game?” The game Ogun hinted at was one you were quite familiar with and one you should have known he would ask you to participate in today. “Fine, but don’t cry when I win.” You scoop another spoonful of corn before tossing your tray away for recycling. You’d need all your strength cause Ogun never lost without asking for back-to-back redos.
.You didn’t quite understand the need to be sweaty all the time, but always gave in to his whims
Ogun preferred to train in the field where the sun shined the most throughout the day at the far left of the Company. Often as you went on throughout your day-to-day training, you’d spot Ogun doing laps and practicing his attacks throughout the day.
“I’m feeling fired up today Y/n, you might want to be worried.” You close your eyes as you stretched an arm over your chest. You had yet to lose but you knew Ogun only saw that as a personal goal to get past. “Let’s get this over with, I’m tired.” The smell of smoke enters your nostrils giving you enough time to dodge Oguns boosted attack. “I told you about letting yourself known Mr. Montgomery.” You open your eyes, Oguns skin was lit ablaze with his pyrokinetic abilities.
From afar you’ve always admired the swirls that decorated his skin whenever you got amped up, and this time was no different. “I see you’re already using “Flaming Ink” what, you already scared?” Ogun widened his stance, glowing white eyes watching you shift your feet. “I’ve been working on a new move that I want to show you so why don’t you try your little fire trick.”
Curious, you scuff your shoe on the floor and draw your fire...only the fire doesn’t come. You do it again and the light goes out just as quick as it came. “What did you do?” You narrowed your eyes at Ogun. “Oh nothing, I’m just faster than you now.” You take a few steps back, “Oh that’s how you want to play it? Okay!” You take off running at the very edge of the field and Ogun is fast behind you. Internally you admit that he had gotten much faster, but a simple fact as that wasn’t going to make you lose.
Doing your best to maintain speed, you chug and draw the flames close to your chest out of Montgomery’s line of sight. It was small, mostly snuffed by the kick of your legs as you ran but it was big enough to get the job done. Similar to Ogun in his natural state, you too could throw projectiles just not as damage-inducing.
Turning around as you run, your eyes widen when Ogun appears just inches in front of you, “Surprise!” Your flame is snuffed and you tumble bringing Montgomery down with you. You prepare to feel your body be crushed by his muscled one but at the last minute your shoulders are grabbed and you flip again. The change in elevation causes you to lose a bit of focus, but you can still clearly feel Ogun cushion your fall.
“Oh wow, this looks like something out of an anime.” Ogun laughs when he finds himself lying flat on his back, you positioned comfortably on top of him. The position was completely ridiculous with your thighs straddling his stomach but you were thankful that you wouldn’t be in any sort of pain later.
“Looks like I’ll need to train harder huh?” You playfully punch Ogun’s shoulder. Even though the whole ordeal only lasted 6 minutes, you could feel your back drenched with sweat. While you couldn’t wait to get in the shower, Ogun seemed content with being in a salty state. “You’re dripping all over me you know?” Your head immediately snapped down to look at Ogun with wide eyes, “Excuse me?”
Ogun had a neutral look on his face not hinting at any humor behind his words. “You’re sweating really bad. Did little ole me get you all worked up?” He had to be teasing you at this point, but you couldn’t find a single crack in his facade. “Yeah well, maybe if you didn’t choose this big ass field with no trees I wouldn’t be 2 seconds from passing out.” You stand up, a bit wobbly, and help him up. “I’m going to go shower, you can stay out here if you want to.”
Ogun happily joins you on the way to the showers. You could hear his excitement from finally beating you. “Don’t get cocky, it was a one-time occurrence Ogun.” An arm is slung over your shoulder. In a smug tone, Ogun mocks you, “Don’t be mad cause you lost. You’ve had enough time to be cocky on your own terms.” You gasp mockingly before turning your head to spit back a remark but lose your breath from how close his face is to yours. At such close proximity, you become aware of small details. How his skin shinned in the sunlight, how Oguns eyes contained such a very specific hue of orange that they mimicked the fire of Sol almost precisely. You even wouldn’t be surprised if they would burn to the touch.
“What’s the matter, got nothing to say?” Out of instinct, you shove his head away with so much force he goes flying before landing on his ass. Before any questions are asked you deflect, “Gross I got your B.O all on my shoulders.” From behind Ogun scoffs, “How dare you, any other fine lady would be blessed to be near my manly musk.” Stifling a laugh you utter one final tease before slipping into the girl’s shower, “Yeah, manly must.”
It was endless labor as your captain followed you around, blowing that damn whistle. Given laundry duty, you had to take multiple shifts back and forth throughout each level of the building to collect everyone’s clothing. When you came across Ogun’s level your job was hindered as you were forced to wait as he sifts through his piles of dirty laundry, “Trush me Y/n, there’s a shirt that I accidentally put in here but it’s actually clean.” “Ogun if it’s in the dirty clothes then it’s dirty.” You try to haul his stuff out but he stops you. “I swear if you don’t move I’ll burn your stuff.”
Ogun chuckles, “You burn my clothes and it’ll catch your clothing as well.” Ogun reaches inside the pile you held pulling out a blank white T-shirt that looked annoyingly similar to the 12 other T-shirts you had watched him toss to the side. “Unless of course, you’re trying to go streaking which by all means I encourage you to.” You ignore his joke and pretend it doesn’t strike a certain feeling in your gut.
For your next task, you had to prepare different levels of activities for a group of 5th graders coming to the company the next day. Of course, Ogun would be assigned to the same task as well so while you worked diligently to bring equipment from the storage room, Ogun spent his time using each of the items incorrectly. “Please stop bouncing the footballs with the tennis racket before you get hurt.” Ogun ignored you as he dribbled with the racket. “Don’t be mad cause you’re not as creative as me.”
Well, as you predicted Ogun ends up getting punted in the face when he tries to toss the football in the hoop. Even though the sound it made on impact was loud and hollow, Ogun barely flinches when it ricochets. “Wow you seem pretty experienced with getting hit in the face with balls, you barely moved.” Ogun glared as he watched you pick up the football. Absentmindedly you spin the football as you speak, “You know if I didn’t know any bet-” Your speech is gargled when your mouth becomes stuffed.
While you weren’t watching Ogun through a basketball at your hand making you push the end of the football in your mouth. “Wow you seem pretty experienced with balls in your mouth, you gotta show me some time.” You cradle your mouth, it throbbed with dull pain and resentment filled your mind. “I’m sure it’ll be easy, there aren’t going to be too many inches stopping me.”
At this point, both your nerves are on high alert, and the energy in the air shifts from playful to angry. “Oh yeah?” Ogun walks slowly and calmly towards you, raising a brow when you stumble back yet still maintain your glare. The hand cradling your jaw is held tightly in his grasp, “Would you like to try?” The dare only eggs you on, “You won’t last a second.” The faint twitch of his temple lets you know you hit a nerve.
*Wheeeeze*
Both you and Ogun’s heads snap to the left. Pan stood at the gym doorway arms waving and whistle blowing, a clear attempt at reprimanding your laziness. The playful aura comes back and you and Ogun are subjected to extra work for your negligence. “This is your fault you know.” he shoots back, “I don’t want to hear it Montgomery.”
Ogun walked down the hallway in search of a new victim to torture, so it was only pure convenience when he stumbled near your living quarters and caught you just before you walked inside. “Y/n! You were absent for dinner.” You take one look at him before dashing into your room. All you wanted was to sleep, training with Ogun, and then having to complete your own set of chores plus extra was tiering. So seeing Ogun wandering out and about during the late hours only met trouble.
You jolt from your train of thought as your door is banged on. “Go away Montgomery, I’m trying to sleep.” Ogun whined, “Well you weren’t trying too hard cause you weren’t in your room yet, now let me in.” You kicked the door back, “No, now go away!”
No sound is heard, not even a shuffle. Sighing you walk towards your bed with a content smile, you’d apologize to him later but now it was your time for rest. Heavy wind billowed through your opened window making you shiver as the curtains tickle your skin. The sharp coolness made your teeth rattle but it was just the right amount of cool you needed in order to head off quickly to dream land. Turning the dial of your lamp, your room is shrouded in darkness and you climb underneath the covers. Nothing could stop the relaxation you were about to receive…….nothing but the feeling of “something ain’t right.”
Opening your eyes and expecting the worse, you are then greeted with the worst as the same fiery eyes you admired hours before, hovered above your face. “You should really close your window.” You scream and throw a punch in Oguns direction but it is in vain as he catches it and pins it down. “I should really get you back for doing that earlier.” Ogun doesn’t make any move to let you go or even speak again. “How the hell did you get there so fast?” You are unable to look away from his eyes, nothing else would have mattered anyway.
More wind blows through your curtains. “I told you I’ve gotten faster.” You can feel his breath caressing your cheek the closer he gets to your face. The hand wrapped around your wrist tightens despite your body being slackened. “Oh yeah?”
“Yeah”
No one knows who moved first. All you know is that your pajamas were being ripped off of your body as Ogun aggressively devoured your lips. Tossing everything to the ground, Ogun sits above you, with his shirt was off, you are given the liberty to admire his chiseled body. Ogun makes quick work with fingering you open, watching with a toothy grin as your chest shakes and your breath stutters. “Not talking much now are you?” He doesn’t care if you respond, all he cares about is wearing you down. You pull him closer, nails dragging down his back, as your orgasm overwhelms you. “Ogun!” Your legs are hiked up and over his shoulders as he positions below you.
“Good job, I don’t want to hear anything else but my name.” The stretch was burning and filled you tightly. “How many inches you think that is?” You weakly slap Ogun’s arm as he weakly ruts into you before pulling out completely, “S-Stop making fun of me.” “ Aww, but it’s fun!” Ogun is slow and precise as he mashes his hips forward. There is no hesitation and the pace stays at a fluid toe-curling pressure. “You’re so silent now Y/n. Tell me, how does it feel, huh?” Your back raises from off the bed, “It...good-I oh god!”
The simple fact that you couldn’t speak sent tremors to Oguns cock. He wanted to tease you more, make you break. Your pussy was wet and sopping for him and not even Sol could make him stop fucking you, not when you looked so beautiful underneath him. But a mischievous streak doesn’t go away that easy.
Leaning back on his haunches, you are put back on top of Ogun, the same position you were in when on the feild. He doesn’t move and just looks at you, “What are, what are you doing?” You try to bounce but he holds you down making you pulse around him. “Please let me move.” But he doesn’t, the only movement you get is when you’re held down harder on his cock. “How many inches Y/n?” You shrug, “I don’t freaking know like 5 or something!?” You just wanted to cum not answer a random questionnaire.
Ogun uses his strength to lift you up and slam you back down. “Wrong, try again.” It takes a moment for you to catch the breath that got knocked out at the second stroke. “Do you really want me to stroke your stupid ego, fine 8inches!” You are slammed down again and this time it hits a special spot just short of your G. “Wrong again, don’t be a smart ass Y/n” He rubbed your side. “Come on, play my game for a little bit, don’t you want to cum on my dick?” Oguns hands squeeze your breasts, thumbs rotating the dark circles of your areolas leaving your nipples to tingle in need.
“Si-Six damn it! It has to be like 6.” your answer is mumbled but is loud enough to satisfy Ogun. As if you weighed nothing less than a piece of paper, Ogun uses his thighs to bounce you on his cock. Your chest bounces in his face taking his immature mind to cloud nine. He could feel the tell tell sign of his own orgasms cumming, as your ass slammed down on his shaft. “Stop squeezing down so damn hard!”
Being the person you are, you don’t listen even after you feel Ogun spill inside of you. “Oh fuck!” You rearrange your own legs and start bouncing at your own pace. The tight grip on your waist means nothing as you chase your second cumming. “Hurry up you little shit my balls are burning!” Ogun tossed his head back as his mouth releases cracked moans. His cock continued to twitch as it became softer but still stimulated. Soon, Ogun couldn’t take the stimuli anymore and pushes you down on the bed. The feeling of his fingers thrusting in and out of your pussy was a little less satisfying than his cock but you cream around it just as easily.
You lay down giggling while Ogun goes in and out of sleep. “I was right, you didn’t last a second.” “Shut the hell up, you’re like a vice.” Your sweaty state somehow doesn’t bother you as you rest in the afterglow. Your blinds continue to shimmer as the wind continues to blow. “Five and a half.” The numbers mean nothing to your muddled brain, “What?” Ogun looks at you, “5 and a half inches is the correct answer but I appreciate the 6.”
Suddenly the glow was no longer worth it.
