I was tagged by the amazing Yue @justasmallbloginabigklainefandom who is certain as the sun rising in the east babeyyyy BUT. I have had nothing to show for a while lmao AND NOW I FINALLY DO!
Excerpt from State of Grace (Klaine, Straight!Blaine, Catholic!Blaine bc some of us are working through our religious upbringing and the weight of that)
There’s but a second of silence, of letting the awful words Blaine hasn’t been able to get out for years hang in the air, before he’s being pulled into the tightest hug of his entire life. He gasps a little, the unexpectedness knocking the wind right out of him.
“I’m glad you’ve found that feeling of home. You deserve it.”
Blaine draws back and looks at Kurt. He has found it. In more than one place.
His eyes dart down to Kurt’s lips and once again, Blaine is fighting off visions from his dream. He glances back up to meet Kurt’s gaze, hazel locking with an electric blue and Blaine feels himself being pulled into Kurt’s orbit—
Excerpt from my untitled newsies fic which includes Spider-Man!Davey because SOME of us are hyperfixating on good ole Spidey right now. Also, my irl bestie @jlmjlmjlm (who will never see this notif bc her bitchass is never on tumblr and doesn’t know how to use it) worked through some issues I’m having with this fic in general, and she suggested, in her words, that this conversation be an “aggressive expression of love” and I’ve never heard anything more Javey in my life so here y’all go:
“That’s not what I mean and you know it. I’m talking about the lying and disappearing and shit. I must’ve stopped by your place a million times and you were never there.”
“Jack, please,” Davey begs, glancing warily around the hall. “Can we—can we not talk about this right now?”
“Oh, no, we’re gonna talk about this right now,” Jack points between the two of them, his finger landing square in Davey’s chest. “This conversation is inevitable.”
“I see someone’s been using that word of the day app I recommended.”
“Had to keep myself busy since my best friend was AWOL the entire break. Where the hell you been?”
I’d love to have both of these finished by the end of the summer and I almost said something negative about the speed of my writing but it’s 2023!!! We’re not doing that shit!!! So I will write what I can and it’ll be fun and great and if I finish by summer yay and if I don’t then that’s also fine!
tagging: @anotherdaveyjacobs @kellyscowboy @rockitmans @esperantoauthor @porcelainandthehobbit @cerriddwenluna aaaaand anyone who sees this and thinks “aw damn, I wish I’d been tagged” CONSIDER YOURSELF TAGGED BABEY!

this is a vent post
oh damn my life is pretty empty actually
I have like almost no irl friends and I'm online all the time
and besides I dont really like most of the people I've met irl, they either just treat me like a child or act like I dont exist, so it's not like I could just go up to someone at school and go like "you are now my friend we must go talk about this thing I like"
and like 90% of the people at my school are transphobes, and I also almost never get to interact with any people who aren't
the only non-transphobic people I've been friends with at school are a bisexual girl who most people dislike and a guy who I've heard is in a poly relationship. there's also another nb person but I barely interact with them. closest I've ever been to talking to them was during a project in the 8th grade where we worked on a play and I was in a group with the nb person
slightly unrelated, but still part of the vent: I hate my brothers. all they ever do is fight over literally everything. just yesterday I tried to turn on the AC because it was hot as hell and this bitch fucking punched me in the arm because it didn't let him hear the tv. im probably never gonna be able to move out, but if I could, I would do it as soon as possible. I'm not even gonna invite them to my wedding assuming I have one. they aren't even invited to my funeral.
and about that luka person who I hate, here's why I hate them:
i first met luka not long after getting my first phone. I posted something funny in the replies of the squid game twitter account, he liked the reply and i checked out his account and decided "yeah sure, I'll follow". we then became friends. after a few months, someone claiming to be an ex friend of luka dmed my and explained "hey. luka is actually a shitty person." and told me about what they actually did.
this is your warning to stop reading any further.
//tw suicide baiting, hornyness, gore, castration
luka was a suicide baiter, an extremely horny minor, a gore fetishizer (normally i wouldn't kinkshame, but fucking GORE??? THAT IS LITERALLY DEAD PEOPLE), and he's into castration. this shocked me a lot, since he was the person who got me into higurashi, which is a very gory anime. that day, I felt extremely betrayed, and this is also the reason why I stopped watching higurashi. he's also done lots of other things that I'm not even gonna acknowledge. this is why I dont interact with people named luka.
anyways vent over now look at these pictures of piplups because this is getting too dark for me

6, 9, 10, 17, 29, 31, 32 and 50 for Fate?
6. If they were badly injured, and for whatever reason couldn’t go to a hospital, who would they go to for help?
Calamity. He’s just always been there for her so he always the one she goes to first for help. Unfortunately, Calamity doesn’t have skills to heal wounds that require hospital treatment rip.
However, in Aevium she doesn’t have Calamity. So in that case she wouldn’t know who to go too. She probably instinctively try looking/calling Calamity only to realize oh, right, he isn’t here. She’d eventually get help from one of her friends though.
9. When they’re sick what do they do to feel better?
Watch funny videos and take as much medication as possible. Also not leave her bed and just PILE the blankets and pillows. She be comfy.
10. Do they have any regrets?
OH BOY DOES SHE.
She regrets not doing more in order to save those she’s witness the deaths of, Keta and Nancy to be specific. Also tangent but I feel ROBBED that we didn’t get a scene where Aelita and the MC talked about the grief of losing their parent figures (especially since it was in such a small timeframe between the twos deaths). I know the MC is a semi silent protagonist but- it feels like a missed opportunity. Unless I missed/am forgetting it cuz I would do that.
Anyway back to Fate- She also regrets waking up Alain too (even if she didn’t mean too). Going through the Nightmare Realm and seeing what they went through. She’d be angry at herself too if she was in Alain’s shoes.
Also like- everything going on with Nim because OH BOY THATS A LOT OF ANGST.
She also had regrets when she got Flora arrested at first. That quickly disappeared though when she literally almost killed her friends in an explosion.
There is probably more I’m blanking on at the moment cuz damn the rejvu MC really goes through it.
Her biggest regret however was the fight she had with Calamity. It was the final convo she had with him before she found herself in Aevium. And as far as she’s concerned right now… she’s never gonna see him again.
17. How easily would they be convinced to do something that goes against their morals?
It would very much not be easy lmao. She be a stubborn bitch. Usually you’d need to threaten a friend or family member of hers. Unless that person specifically tells her not to bend to said demands (*points to the whole Eldest scene where her life was threaten for the Flame Orb*).
29. If they were real would you be friends with them?
I would NOT approach her lmao. I’ve got a lot of social anxiety and never approach anyone unless I absolutely have too. Hell, I’d even considered not asking my teacher if I could go to the nurse even though I was having cramps because of my anxiety. Most of my irl friendships were made because others approached me.
Fate probably would approach me tho, I’d think we’d get along! So yeah, probably.
31. What superpower would you choose for them and what would they choose for themselves? If they have one would they choose something else?
I mean- I already gave her various different powers lol. I don’t know what Fate would want for herself honestly. Maybe she’d choose healing powers, again given the shit she and her friends go through.
32. If they could change one thing about themselves what would it be?
Probably to be more smart lmao. Seriously though there’s not a lot about Fate she hates about herself. The worse she thinks about herself is that she thinks her natural black hair is boring af now and she looks so much cooler with white hair (she is right).
50. What is your favorite thing about them?
She is a fucking dumbass. Dumbass characters my beloved. She is also one of the things keeping me sane through the rejuvenation hyperfixation lol.

Life/OSDD rant
Tumblr media
Moon comforting Katsuki
Let me start by establishing the fact that I am the host of the Wilderness System, an OSDD1-b system. My name is Wulf, although most folks we know irl use my legal name because it is also the body’s birth name.
First of all, I don’t expect everyone to automatically know how to interact with systems. It’s perfectly natural for folks to fuck up, I myself often struggle to understand social cues. However, by the very nature of DID/OSDD, I think it’s a pretty easy conclusion to come to that saying something along the lines of “If there was a way to make me into an alter in your head” or “Can [this alter] just go away cause I don’t like them” is pretty rude.
Alters are real people, not just characters for you to play off of just because you think it would be ‘interesting’ to meet yourself ‘from my POV’. Every alter serves a purpose, from protecting the system to caring for it to just comforting a single alter. We are a family, built from blood, sweat and tears with effort from all of us, because the ones who should have given us a loving, safe family didn’t.
I get that sometimes folks don’t get along, but that doesn’t mean they should just disappear cause y’all aren’t besties. Their existence doesn’t revolve around you, it revolves around us as a system. Some folks (who should damn well know who they are but honestly probably don’t because “I’m not the problem, I’m trying to fix them cause they’re the problem!”) should take a step back and realise, hey, maybe I’m butting heads with the system protector and only get along with the system’s caregiver/mediator because I have a part to play in starting fights. Honestly, if you’re trying to fix someone else all the time, thinking that it’ll fix your issues when they have no issue with your mutual friends, maybe take a step back anyway and see it from a different POV who’s really starting and ending fights and who steps away from instigation.
Introjects are not going to perfectly mirror their source. From person to person, everyone has their own perception of a person or a character. Overall, their description may be similar and they may look the same, but they are not going to be the same person. Two alters of the same character from different systems are more than likely going to behave differently. Moon from FNAF: SB may be part of security, but we spent the better part of a month coaxing our Moon into interacting with more than just the system littles. In the end, it took our resident blond Pops Yamada engaging him to be able to start actually communicating both ways (them and Sun have so many similarities, we really should have tried to introduce them sooner). He’s our resident cat scrunkly with codependency issues and from his behaviour, chances are he’s a lot more of a caregiver than a protector.
My point is, don’t look at a violent source and automatically assume that you’re in danger. They’re people, if you haven’t done anything to them, well… there’s a phrase in Chinese that roughly translates to “the thief has a guilty conscience”. If you didn’t do anything, there is no need to fear them. If you did, you fear them because you know what you did.
Further context for the picture: I heard explosions and screaming in headspace in the middle of the day. I didn’t know what happened and Pyreseus, my partner and the system’s primary protector, couldn’t find out what happened either. We found Moon calming Katsuki down, although Katsuki doesn’t want to talk about it. We’re not going to force him to tell us, if he wants to, he will in his own time. Often, alters come with pseudomemories and/or bearing trauma. We accept them as they are and work with them to heal, but everyone has bad days and setbacks. Also, we’ve found that Moon’s default neutral expression is a toothless smile (he has sharp ass teeth) and if anything, he’s frowning ever so slightly in the picture (right side). Honestly, I think it’s almost poetic. He is simultaneously the masks of comedy and tragedy, not that I think he’s realised.
Yes, I got permission from Katsuki to post this. He was fine with it as long as his face isn’t in it. Moon… looks at our phone like The Motherbox and hisses like a cat at our friend talking to him via text. Does he understand technology? He may be an animatronic, but fuck if I know at this point. Also, I’m aware he’s missing his signature ruffles. Pops put him in a vampire costume for Halloween (hence the waist sash), he took the cape off and swapped out his pants, I assume so that he wouldn’t freak Katsuki out even more and cause he likes his jester pants. The kids are trying to design him a year-round outfit that he would be comfortable in, I dunno if the signature ruffles are gonna make a return in it. I guess we’ll all have to wait and see ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

ahhhh what about being best friends with hinata and kageyama. bc let’s be honest they totally started to hang out outside of volleyball
— BEING BEST FRIENDS WITH HINATA AND KAGEYAMA
Tumblr media
includes - hinata shoyo and kageyama tobio
a/n - hehe thank you so much for requesting bby!! <3
published date - 27/03/21
Tumblr media
- this is a very unexpected friendship to say the least
- this friendship is just a constant fight for your attention
- they’re so competitive and they always make you decide who wins
- one of the main competitions they have everyday is the one where they race to your classroom to see who can get there first
- or when you say you want something from the vending machine, they are both rushing out of their seats to see who get you your snack first
- despite how much they say they might hate each other, they’re always hanging out in school, at lunch and even outside of school
- of course, you’re always there with them or else they probably would have killed each other by now
- in terms of affection, hinata is always there if you need a hug, a pat on the back or any of that
- for kageyama, let’s just be glad he even looks at you and calls you his best friend
- kageyama is a little bit new to physical affection and that’s why he’s glad he has you and hinata
- hang outs normally is at kageyama’s house because natsu is too loud, kageyama is normally home alone and you and hinata just come over unannounced to annoy him
- whenever you guys are watching a movie, you’re always huddled up with hinata while kageyama is on the other side of the couch, looking at you guys enviously
- being best friends with these guys can be super rewarding and draining at the same time
- you’ve had to stay back at school almost everyday to help them practice volleyball
- and trust me, they love you a little bit more every time you help toss the ball
- kageyama is like canonically super handsome, so expect to get hate from a lot of the girls
- also kageyama is like your protector in some ways??
- like whenever there’s someone bothering, within 2 seconds, he’s right behind you, glaring down at the person talking to you
- in reality, he just thought you were talking to a new friend and he wanted to meet them
- but when he tried to smile at them, the got scared and ran away :((
- he got super upset about that, and sometimes you catch him practicing his smile on the mirror
- but whenever he does that, you always give him a big hug and say that you think his smile is beautiful
- hinata is definitely the type of person to just jump on you out of nowhere??
- he always bites and licks you 🙃
- since volleyball is becoming increasingly more important to them, yall barely got to hang out
- but fear not, bc you become their manager!!
- whenever they’re on break, they’re the first people you go to, to bring them a towel and water
- kageyama loves headpats. end of discussion.
- nothing makes kageyama happier than when you give him head pats and say “good job tobio, i’m so proud of you, i knew you could do it!!”
- pls this man is so touch starved
- and whenever they lose a match, the first thing they wanna do is dive into your arms
- they always call you their ‘home’ or ‘safe space’ because whenever they’re around you, they just seem to relax
- you get them personalised volleyball equipment with their names on it and they treasure it so much
- at their games, they always look towards you whenever they score a point so they can see the proud look on your face
- you try to make them lunches but they eat so damn much that at some point you gave up
- do y’all know in fairy tail how natsu and gray would be fighting but when erza looked in their direction, they would be all friendly??
- yeah that’s basically the three of you
- this friendship requires A LOT of affirmation and reassurance so be prepared
- kageyama once yelled at you, yk one of his ‘king of the court’ moments and you went off on him
- from that day forward, he has not yelled or even raised his voice at you
- also tsukishima actively wonders if you’re being held captive by the two idiots bc he has no idea who would willingly be their best friend
gc name; volleyball whores
hinata: guys wake up
hinata: its an emergency
hinata: guys?? please???
hinata: if you guys loved me, you would answer rn
kageyama: hinata, its 2am you fucking idiot
you: hi shoyo!! is everything okay?? you should be sleeping rn babes :((
hinata: i know i know but i cant sleep
kageyama: well i can, gn
you: kags don’t be rude
hinata: guys wanna come coaches shop with me pls
kageyama: its not even open

Sk8 headcannons because brainrot pt. 2
- everything Reki has ever taught himself has been because of the wonderful world of YouTube tutorials
- Kojiro wanted to get his ears pierced in highschool like Kaoru, but he didn't do it because he was afraid of tarnishing his image (which is ironic when he gets a massive tattoo later in life)
- Langa doesn't like cats because he thinks they're mean
- there’s a stray cat that lives near Langa’s house and even though he doesn’t like cats, he leaves out milk and some fish for it sometimes because he feels bad
- Langa has never had a pet except a goldfish he won at a carnival once that he managed to keep alive for four years somehow.
- Kaoru technically needed glasses in high school, but he didn't wear them because he just didn't care at the time (until his vision grew poor enough that it affected his skating)
- Miya gets called a furry by Reki on the daily
- Reki has some knowledge in video editing and has considered starting a YouTube channel
- Langa has a diary, something he started after his father died. At first he didn't really know what to write, so he would just talk about his day, but eventually he got to the emotions part. The diary was especially useful during his fight with Reki in which he was trying to figure out his emotions (it was also useful when he realized he might have an itty bitty crush on his best friend)
- Joe is the biggest dad friend of the group in terms of doting on the kids and giving advice and stuff. Both Reki and Langa come to him often for advice, and Miya hangs around his restaurant a lot.
- Langa has one (1) succulent that he has managed to keep alive for three years. Its name is Gary, and it may not be the prettiest, but it is not dead yet!
- Reki never tells his mother when Langa is coming over and she's trained herself to just expect a lanky Canadian to be wandering around her house at any time.
- It took Kojiro a really long time to figure out his sexuality (and that's valid!!)
- Hiromi has been hopelessly in love with his manager for three years and has tried on multiple occasions to confess to her, but either something interrupts them or there's some sort of misunderstanding about it. Those are his more violent nights at "S".
- After befriending Reki, Langa and Miya, Hiromi is a little more careful about his tools of sabotage during beefs (and he lowkey feels guilty for injuring Reki in the beginning)
- Kaoru and Reki are actually closer than one might think. Reki ends up asking him for advice just as much as he asks Kojiro.
- Reki can't do something mundane without his ears being occupied. He ends up listening to music or podcasts a lot when he does chores or is working on a board alone (but if Langa is there with him, he'll talk his ear off instead).
- Miya's family isn't particularly bad, they're just a little distant. They assume everything is okay because Miya's so successful with school and skating, and they trust his integrity (which makes it very easy for him to sneak out to "S"). He doesn't really talk to them (or anyone, really) about his struggles.
- When Miya and Koyomi meet, he shows her all his video games and suddenly Reki's little sister is a gamer girl
- Langa almost wore a long-sleeved top to the beach and Reki had to go make him change before they left ("you'll melt in that, are you crazy?!")
- Kojiro knew damn well that Kaoru had a business trip and that the gang was going to the beach, but all other parties were unaware. He just decided to tag along as to not be left out.
- Kaoru trims his own hair, as he finds salons to be ridiculously overpriced for those with long hair
- Reki dogsits for his next door neighbor sometimes, they have a shiba named Onigiri (rice ball).
- Kojiro’s pennant was a gift from Kaoru and he wears it literally all the time except in water (so it doesn’t get ruined)
- Reki’s father is pretty absent, so Oka takes it upon himself to look after him
- Langa occasionally picks up odd jobs in order to help his mom out with finances
- Langa’s favorite animal is dolphins. He had a phase as a child where he read like fifty dolphin books and it was his entire personality for a few months. Despite this, he has never actually seen a dolphin irl
- Reki takes really good care of his nails and Langa… does not. He bites them and it annoys the shit out of Reki to the point where he’s just like “please… just let me file them for you” and Langa relents despite the fact that he hates the sensation of getting his nails filed
- Reki sometimes talks to Langa about getting depressed and one time Langa is like “yeah I getchu” and Reki is just like “heh?” And Langa says “I mean my dad died and I was in counseling for like months after that before I came here” and Reki is just like “oh”
- Langa is Reki’s bi awakening and it takes him a hot second to figure that out
- sometimes Langa pretends to be more oblivious than he is, either for shits and giggles, or to obtain information
- Kaoru knows exactly how to seduce women, and occasionally uses this to his advantage. It just sucks because he’s not into women.
- Reki is super observant, but whenever Langa does something that’s an indication that he likes Reki, he’s just like “WELL MAYBE IM OVERANALYZING THIS CANT BE REAL-”
- Langa (in general) doesn’t feel the need to be super secretive about anything. He’s honest (sometimes brutally so) and doesn’t always think twice before he says something. This can be both good and bad depending on the context.
- Reki doesn’t sleep a lot. He literally has to go to bed past midnight, he absolutely cannot fall asleep earlier. He gets up at 6:30am every day of the week, even weekends. It’s just how he’s programmed.
- Kojiro used to go to the public gym before Kaoru commented about how unsanitary that was. Ever since then he got freaked out about going to public gyms (especially as someone who works in food services) and cancelled his membership. He bought his own equipment and works out on his own now
- Reki knows how to do rainbow loom. His sisters had a phase with it.
- Kojiro drew on himself with pen when he was bored in school.
- Miya has a habit of eavesdropping on conversations he’s not meant to hear

What’s your top 5 favorite Rollisi moments?
I apologize, as this ask was sent days ago and I'm just now getting around to it because ya know, life, and because I took my sweet time thinking over these scenes.
It's a long one, under the cut!
1. The Scene (the kiss). This kiss has everything. It’s unexpected yet long overdue. It’s tender, it’s loving. There’s swaying. There’s standing on tip toes to reach Tol and there’s bending down to reach Smol. There’s water, city lights, a romantic atmosphere. There's tears (barely) but it's an excuse to touch faces! There's cheek caressing, there's longing, lingering stares, there's hesitance in transitioning from best friends to lovers. Light banter, nervous laughter. THE UNFINISHED SPEECH. I know I'm all over the place with this but SO ARE MY FEELINGS. So much has led up to this moment and I must say, the payoff was excellent. Perfect first kiss.
2. The Fight. Dare I name the one fight they got in that caused them to be labeled “toxic” by haters? I do dare. Why, one may ask? *shakes out piece of paper* Though they are fueled by their lack of sleep and unsaid feelings for each other at the time, there’s still some bite to Amanda’s bark on her part. She’s clearly upset over him leaving her, feels abandoned. Perhaps this is a feeling she’s used to from her own family trauma, but Carisi leaving the precinct particularly hurt not only because she has strong feelings for him at this point, but because he was the only one that ever was there for her in a way no one else was. I think she came to rely on him more than she may have even realized and that all spilled out in that small fight in the squad room. And he was so taken aback, obviously thought she was happy for him but of course she’s going to tell him she is because she doesn’t want to hurt him. The fight is so natural, happens unexpectedly but develops organically. The main reason it’s my number two? Giddish and Scanavino’s best acting, imo. And I’ve only seen the actual scene about three times because it makes me semi uncomfortable. It’s uncomfortable watching people argue. It was so intimate and clearly turned personal, it almost feels wrong to be watching them go at it (in a bad way. Heh). But I think that’s a testament to the acting! A+++ scene! I dream of writing a fight scene as well as this one!
3. The Hospital. Truly, this episode was packed with Rollisi moments from start to finish. I love every moment we get with them individually (hand grab, anyone? Or when he makes her LAUGH at such an emotional moment in the hospital. I could go on about this scene in detail but I’ll stop). My favorite moment of the episode is actually the last scene of them. After Rollins gets rid of her father's (ex) wife, she’s so proud of herself for doing what she feels is right and that reflects in her face when she smiles at Carisi. It’s so simple and subtle, but there’s so much love in that look. Kelli is a master at giving these loving looks and perfect expressions. It’s also a wonderful contrast to how she used to look at Carisi in the beginning - from season 16, when she thought he was a bit of a goof. Now she looks at him like he hung the got damn moon. We don't get to see Carisi's face here, but I imagine he's looking quite amused at her, maybe even charmed by her a little bit. I'm also obsessed with the way Amanda's eyelashes flutter down when he moves closer to her. Flirting over Amanda's bedridden father? The ✨romance!✨ Swoon!
4. The Elevator. This used to be number one for me, until we got the goodness in season 22. There’s something very special about this hug. It’s not even a hug, really. It’s clinging, desperate, need that one particular person and only this person kind of thing. It’s, of course, devastating that Rollins had to go through the whole thing with Bucci and possibly leaving her children without a mother, but like I said, something special about the way this led to letting the audience see who she really trusts as she let’s herself fall apart and into Carisi’s arms. Sure, she trusts her squad, but she also wants them to know she’s ok at all times. Even tells her own therapist this once or twice. She even *begins* to tell Carisi she’s fine, her usual response when asked if she’s alright, but then the second he says her name, it’s like a switch is flicked and she’s sobbing into him. DON’T THINK I FORGOT ABOUT SCANAVINO. He’s always there when she needs it. He’s patient with her, kind, takes her into him with absolutely no hesitation. This scene happens episodes after their fight in the squad room. It’s clear there is no more lingering tension between them in the elevator scene. It’s the way he says “I got you” not once but TWICE, as if he needs her to hear it. Needs to make sure she understands that he’s there not just in the moment, but he’s got her always. No matter what happens between them or with their jobs — and this comes back around in his wedding speech, as well. 🤧 But also, fave part of that scene? When he holds her tighter, leans his head against hers many times, and then closes his eyes. Cannot stand to hear her sobs, or see her in any kind of pain. Oh, my heart. My heaaaaaaart.
5. Rain check. Lots of great acting here. Is anyone surprised? No, but there’s a bit of a range of emotions in this particular scene and it’s acted so beautifully, I could write a whole paper. I’ll try and keep it brief (ha, yeah right). I don’t think Amanda would ever have a problem getting a man anytime anywhere, but I do think it was a big deal for her to ask this man out. I think maybe her intentions at the time may have been less than trying for a relationship, but she was open to trying something with him. I also think it was a big deal because it felt very planned. The outfit felt planned, the way she made him laugh, the hair toss an attempt to flirt. Though she also had this vulnerability about her that only exists with him. She’s putting herself out there, she’s saying that she’s willing to try and I think that is a big step for her, even if she was only open to a FWB situation (that totally 100% wouldn’t have worked bc *feelings*). Carisi, however, rejects her. You can see in his face that he’s so reluctant to do this but he does. Obviously, he’s had feelings for the woman for so long but is protecting himself. Almost like he knows she may think she’s ready to try something with him, but he also knew it wasn’t their time yet. Also, after he tells her he can’t, the immediate disappointment Amanda has? Heart-wrenching, tbh. She looks so upset and gets off from sitting on the edge of his desk so fast. Like. BABYYYYY.
Honorable Mentions: Threats! I’m kind of cheating here, but there’s nothing like an OTP that will kill for the other. I’m -of course- talking about Carisi’s “if Rollins gets shot over this, I’m gonna take ALL of them out.” And also Amanda’s message to Mesner: “if you go after Counselor Carisi or anyone in my family again, it will be your last day on earth. I’ll kill you myself.” Ooh, there’s something so secks see about being violently protective over your significant other. I don’t condone it irl, but let me have the ✨drama✨on tv.
Thank you for this question! I had fun going over some great scenes!

What are your favorte jshk fanfics? also where do you like reading them the most?
Hi Anon!!! today is the day I can finally answer this question😈 ahaha you know how much I enjoy making fic recs so 👀 Let’s go!!!
To answer your second question first, I like reading them on AO3 the most! Mostly because I get almost unlimited number of characters to rant in the comment section........... 😆but also the tagging system is very helpful.
Okay, now to the fun part of this ask😏
You said JSHK, but I mostly read Hananene ones so all of my favs include that pairing... as  I already did a fic rec here of my favs, this list will continue that one, so please check that one first hehe ((I apologize in advance..., I would love for people to recommend me some mitsukou ones tbh... I’m really lost when it comes to other pairings orz)) 
If I’m completely honest with you anon-san, my favorite JSHK fic right now is the one Roxanne ( @istoleyourboat )  wrote based of my art and her snippet:
Star-Crossed and Falling- Where Stars Go to Die by lilaflo
Hanako is Princess Nene’s personal knight 👀. A tale of forbidden love. They slowly fall in love as they exchange a series of gifts, one that includes a pair of matching earrings that remind them of their love when they’re apart. Also, jelly Hanako of Nene’s suitors😏... Oh, but nothing lasts forever and those sweet moments will come to an end when they have to face their cruel reality, in this world, they don’t get to choose neither their battles or the ones they love.
Now more of Roxanne, because I seriously enjoy her work so much (I’m sure everyone knows by now lmao sdkj) 
Night of the Phantom King by lilaflo 
This one is a spooky one. Nene’s regret for never realizing who she truly loves takes her to mourn her deceased friend Amane and cry on his grave in a Halloween night, then suddenly the Phantom King comes to take her away👀 & he looks suspiciously familiar... Beautiful world building btw, also the ending is just, excellent. 
12 Year Romance by lilaflo
Amane meets Nene at the Tanabata festival, she’s older than him, but he falls for her instantly, fast forward, Amane is now in middle school, he’s a troublemaker, & gets constantly into fights, but he swears the new school nurse looks familiar... he then realizes it’s her and thinks it must be fate!!!... This one hits close to home bc I’ve been in this situation irl, so I can confirm all of Nene’s struggles are real (and ofc how a love with an age gap should be handled the correct way, this fic really teaches you many life lessons hahaha) 
took a sip then another sip, then you turned and said to me by chivalrousamour 
This autor has a bunch of good JSHK fics!! I recommend you check their AO3 out, bec you may find something you like for sure! But, this is my absolute fav from them. Nene is a mangaka, celebrating the finishing of her long serialized manga, while Amane is a delivery boy who happens to find her in a very questionable state in her house👀 (it’s all family friendly ofc, anon, I’m not a slimy pervert like some ghost boy)
Maid for Each Other by corologs ( @corologs )
Courtney has this amazing College AU collection series that I encourage you to check out!!! But Maid for each other is my fav!!! So it’s the Yugi twins birthday, and it’s Tsukasa’s turn to choose where they go to celebrate it... you can already tell where this is going... (let the chaos begin) & as the title said, it involves maids!!! (it has Kaicho wa maid sama vibes if you liked that anime~~)
If I Could Tell Her by corologs
What if the picture perfect arc plan was successful??? Well, this fic explores this idea, and it’s very interesting to read. I like how Amane and Hanako are two separate people here.
the horizon tries but it’s just not as kind on the eyes by sincerelyand ( @sunlightinourheadlights ) 
(Oh my sweet Karen, she writes such good fics, so go check her AO3 out as well!!) Amane and Yashiro are friends that share an apartment (& they were roommates-- OMG they were roommates), even if Amane has its complains, because Nene can be a handful sometimes (and in denial of her true feelings as always, are we even surprised at this point?) he loves her dearly anyways😭.
for real, this time by sourlemoncandy  ( @sour-lemon-candy )
Did somebody say fake dating AU?????? Because hell yeah I did asajj I loved reading this so much!! Nene and Amane are childhood friends, and Nene overhears some girls talking about Amane and how one of them plans to ask him out... but she senses these girls are up to no good so she... well, you gotta read it to find out more~~ it’s no fun If I tell ya everything hehe... so go go go!!
lemon cream by sourlemoncandy
Amane and Nene, just two good friends having a road trip and sharing donuts... what could go wrong??  😏 seriously, I loved this fic so much!! Instant fav! Also makes me wanna try some good sweet donuts...
Trip Down Memory Lane by insipidenvy ( @insipidenvy )
This fic is so sweet. I have such a huge attachment to it, because I read it when I really needed some fluff in my life hahaha. It’s sort of a collection of memories between Amane and Yashiro’s relationship over the years. So heartwarming... if you need the fluffs you’ll enjoy this very much!!
The Radish Princess and the Toilet Prince by insipidenvy
This is my favorite fic from insipidenvy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You know how I am a slut for Royalty AUs so that’s why!!!!! Also Toilet Prince!! hahahaha such a good nickname lmao. I love how they bond over their insecurities, it’s very relatable tbh. 
Between Wind and Water by WingSongHalo  ( @wingsonghalo )
My beautiful Wing always delivering the good Hananene content, as she should!! This fic is so fun to read!! I laughed so hard at Nene and Hanako being awkward with each other!!! So you know how Hanako is super clingy with Nene, he’s always touching & hugging her, but this time something weird happens and he’s so distant~~ Nene doesn’t want to admit it at first, but she misses his clingy ghost boy~~ you’ll have a good time reading this for sure!  
The Monster's Bride by Hammsters ( @uglierdaikon )
Have you heard about the myth of Cupid and Psyche? Well this fic rewrites it in a very Hananene way <3 hehe I loved it so much (as I’m a huge fan of mythology~) To sum it up, Nene is fated to marry a monster that lives in the mountains so she’s devastated... to her surprise, her husband is far from what she expected... she only had one rule to obey and well... we all know how reckless Nene is so... you go find out what happens next now!! hehehe
Morning Reflections by FalalalaLa  ( @miss-sternennacht )
So you’ve heard of Hanako watching Nene sleep, but what about Nene watching Amane sleep???!! this fic offers you this and so much more fluff <3 Also Nene remembering how they met and how their relationship evolved during the years, aww <3 
Cursed Coin by DaikonSenpai  ( @daikonsenpai )
There’s a school dance, Yashiro’s supposed to be dancing with Kou (since she can’t go with Hanako, which causes him to be jelly~~ and bitter), but she loses a coin Aoi gave her for good luck so she goes out and searches for it on the last place she saw it, the school fountain. Suddenly Hanako spots her, what’s she doing outside??? is she drunk or something?? what happens next you may find out when you read it~~~
Between Love and Hope by Baronesscmd (SweeterThanYourDarkestSin) ( @baronesscmd )
Oh to be Nene and get to sleep between the Yugi twins... God really has favorites uh... ISTG, this collection of fics is so cute. I love how Nene loves the twins so much in this AU, they have their little cute family. She ofc is in love with Amane, but their relationship with Tsukasa is so tender... it’s mostly this trio having fluffy moments together to heal your soul... if you need some, you’ll get it here for sure hahaha. 
Ghost of You (And All the Futures We've Forgotten) by Indigo_Floof  milkteamoon  ( @indigosienna , @spades-queen )
So anon you may have been wondering, well this bitch likes fluff only???? how about some angst for a change, uh? DAMN, OKAY THEN, here you have some angst to rip your soul out and wish you never sent me this ask in the 1st place, bec of the emotional damage this fic will leave you sdajjsa, also if you liked “Erased”, you’ll love this fic too! 
Hanako of the Opera by zxrstan
Finally, but not less important, me being annoying about Hanako of the Opera & POTO AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!! This fic is based of the AU Aidairo created mostly, it’s really fun to read if you didn’t get much of what was happening during the Hanako of the Opera event, it has a nice ending also! very satisfying I must say. 
AAAAND THIS IS THE END OF MY ALL TIME FAV LIST OMG;;;; Kudos for me for searching through all my damn AO3 and Google Chrome history (from both my PC and phone, since I am a FOOL and forgot my AO3 password so I read a lot of these in the past as a guest before recovering my password LMAO, please be patient with me omg, and also if you see me bookmarking them now, you know why 😭) 
Kudos to all of my writer homies as well, I love and appreciate all of you so much!! you have no idea! 💖
I hope you find this list useful, anon!! Thank you for sending me this ask and have a wonderful day! 
Ps. Please everyone feel free to add more fics to this list if you want! this is all my personal picks, but I’m aware there are a lot more fics that I haven’t read and deserve as much recognition as the ones I listed!

YOU ARE SO RIGHT BAKI IT ISN'T BORING FOR ME EITHER

Hi i havent read the books post-resurrection so im kinda lost on why you dont like phase 2 val? She was easily one of my favourite characters ever, she was flawed (and the books took time to acknowledge them) and relatable and still really admirable (intelligent, brave, loyal) and i really liked her and really appreciated that she wasn’t perfect unlike every other young adult heroines. What went wrong😢😢😢😢
Okay I'm gonna put this under a cut because I very strongly dislike phase 2 val and I know it bugs people who don't feel the same, so. Dead dove dont eat
Okay so first off, phase 1 val and phase 2 val are completely different people. literally. phase 1 val was based on an ex-friend of lardo's who used to apparently be involved pretty heavily in like, editing the books and "she'd react like this" or "val wouldn't say that", and that val she was one of my favourite fictional characters from when book one came out to the release of resurrection. phase 2 val is based on his whiny little girlfriend who likes to start shit with 14yos on twitter, and you can absolutely tell she is no longer the same person. so the long story short of "what went wrong" is "the original irl val's friendship with dirty laundry ended for whatever reason and he decided to retcon her entire personality to suit his gf"
Phase 2 Val, in my opinion:
Weak, like won't even fight back when she gets jumped bc boo fucking hoo she's so awful, bitch get up already, nobody signed up for ur pity party
Whiny. So fucking whiny. All the time. And she's the POV character so it's inescapable.
"Pacifist" but in a really pathetic virtue-signalling kind of way like "Oh, I've done such terrible thiiiiiiiiiiings I'm so awfulllllllllllll look how good I'm trying to be nowwwwwwww pay attention to meeeeeeee" kind of way, it was both boring and a massive eye roll. It's a book about magic and asskicking. Kick some ass. We're here for escapism not "realistic" whining. Yes, irl she'd be a mess. As an author it's his job to strike a balance between the "realism" he wants to portray and making his readers so depressed and done with his heroine that they quit reading, and in my case, he absolutely failed.
Everything must be about her at all times. Skug is having personal problems? Fuck him, they're about her now. Everything is about how it affects her, and her feelings, and be damned to the person actually having the problem. Fucks phase 2 val cain gives about anyone except herself: 0
Bitter and jaded. Which yeah I get why but it's like jesus christ what do we get out of reading about this? It's not even good bitter and jaded where it makes you empathise or admire her strength in adversity or whatever, she's just become a really nasty person with no redeeming features that I could see. Which? Landy outright said she's based on his gf? If your boyfriend is gonna drag ur entire personality through the dirt like that and write "you" as just a collection of incredibly negative traits...yikes.
Really ungrateful about the awesome life she leads? Which bugs me bc I fucking hate mundanity and knowing that all there is to life is fucking working and bad mental health. I would kill to live her life. All she does is moan about it. Like? Quit then. Fuck off back to being a mortal if it's that bad and live the shitty life you wanted to get away from in the first place. That way we'd get no more books, and quite honestly, thank fuck for that. But anyway, she needs to pick one, stick with it, and stop complaining about whatever she chose.
The girl wallows in self pity. And if someone else isn't indulging her enough, she'll wallow harder and louder and more obviously. Yawn.
Her POV is now so depressing to read that Resurrection literally tanked my mental health. I'm not kidding. I fell off the self-harm wagon, the suicidal thoughts came back, reading her dissociating would make me dissociate, I just did not cope whatsoever. Being in her head was just like being in my head during my worst points, and I hate myself, so naturally, I hate her too. Like I get why some people like phase two val. I get that her depression is "realistic" and that trauma does just make some people completely dislikeable and self-pitying, and if people want to read about that, then...sure. you do you, my dudes. But I live that reality, I am that person whose trauma made her a dysfunctional, isolated bitch, and I hate, passionately, having it infest the media I consume to escape.
Essentially if I wanted to engage with a bitter, spiteful, depressed piece of shit in her 20s who pushes everyone away and sucks at everything, I'd live my gd life. Yall see me tryna engage with my real life? Hell nah I'm on tumblr dot com burying my head up the ass of whatever fandom will force my brain to produce some s e r o t o n i n and that is what I need this series for
Also? The dynamic she had with skug in phase one? "Until the end"? "You save me, I save you, that's how we work"? Forget that, it doesn't exist anymore. I stopped reading after Midnight, because she was written like he was a coworker she could barely tolerate. They went from "Lardo confirms on twitter that they talked on the phone a bunch while she was in america and he'd always ask her to come home" to "she comes home and proceeds to blank him for five months while she sits in her fuckin multimillionaire's mansion feeling sorry for herself". Their friendship completely disintegrated, they were totally separated for most of the book, she's written as not giving a single shit about him. She treated him like dirt, and their dynamic basically felt like it was becoming "Local Man With History Of Gravitating Towards Abusive Women Makes Same Terrible Choices For Fifth Time" and? that was the point of no return to me. he supports her unconditionally, no matter what he's going through at the time, he's walked on broken bones to try and get to her when she was in danger, she can tell him anything and he'd never use it against her. I did not, for one second in phase two, believe she felt the same about him. tbh it felt like she could - and wanted to - drop him at the first opportunity and not even feel bad about it, and that's not the dynamic that made me so emotionally attached to phase one. i signed up for "until the end", not whatever bullshit phase two has going on.
Apparently she's "less depressed" now and their relationship is "better" in the books published since midnight, which! might well be true. but I haven't read them and don't intend to, and she's gone from one of my favourite fictional characters ever (which! was impressive! because i almost never bond with the female lead - i normally get attached exclusively to the character i crush on, which would be skug here. val was the first female lead i actually cared about since xena! so im deeply salty about losing her!) to a character i? honestly prefer to pretend doesn't exist. i live in war era dead men/generals crackship land because that way, i don't have to acknowledge her or the fuckin character assassination phase 2 pulled on her.
so yeah, no hate towards phase one val at all. phase one val was awesome and flawed and gave me something to aspire to despite my shitty mental health and trauma, and if she'd kept her original personality she might still have been those things. but the original "real life" val is no longer involved (and doesn't talk to landy at all anymore, apparently), and the val based on landy's insufferable gf? i cannot get behind her at all ever, four for skug and none for phase two val cain bye
(tldr; you're not missing anything by quitting after spx)

Idw Prowl is an evil SOB (took him two years to send the Wreckers to Garrus-9 and help Maxy (who was protecting all the war crimes the Bots did), put Maxy’s torturer and a war criminal on board the Lost Light cuz why not, sent Pharma to Delphi knowing it was DJD territory)
Prowl... Prowl’s creation and competence in his area of work is astounding. He is brilliant, creative, and defiantly apathetic of this world. But, he is very human in his own way. IDW Prowl is selfish, yet not. He is a unique in that aspect because most people make decisions like his for the sole reason of benefiting themselves. But Prowl’s sole reason of existing is to create PEACE. 
Peace. Peace can only be done when people are complacent, happy, and satisfied. When things are stationary. Stable. 
But life is never stable. Elements desire to form bonds, yet are almost always leaning towards to instability... Prowl’s form of PEACE is a world where there is no fighting. But everything sentient requires to fulfill its desires. As long as there is desire, people will fight. 
A world of PEACE would be a world of full control, there are no surprises, no change. Safety, routines, and constants. No creativity, no development... nothing. stagnant. 
But I must admire Prowl’s tenacity and dedication to this world! 
He sacrifices everything for the sake of the directive, preserve cybertron, PEACE. He sacrifices his morals (Robot Gets Bullied By a Human), his dignity (Recent News, Cop Accepts Orgy For The Means of Establishing Peace, his body (Recent News, Cop gets Molested by A Spider for The Autobot Cause), and of course, thousands of lives (Not Recent News). :D Prowl respects and understands that there will always be chaos and instability, and he is so very flexible around it all! He literally can maximize everything and anything he has. He is the embodiment of consequentialism with a lil dash of politics. I wish my group project members were 1% as productive as him! Prowl tries to put everything black and white, and he gets upset when things get far more tricky, and wants to get everything in control so people can stay safe and remain in peace and not fight! And that’s a respectable goal! Control can be good, it means one understands and is able to retain themselves and the thing they are controlling. But Prowl doesn’t want to accept that there are things out of his control. And Prowl likes to think he’s justified when he controls the uncontrollable. 
I mean, yeah, if he didn’t do what he did, the autobots would have been six feet under A LOT EARLIER. Optimus is not a good leader, preserving organic life over his own soldiers? Psh. Look at Spike, he’s got valid points and can I understand why he left the ‘bots. Prowl’s probably thinking everyday, DAMN, OP, WHY R U SO DUMB. LISTEN WE NEED TO FEED OUR SOLDIERS AND PRIORITIZE OUR SPECIES LIVES INSTEAD OF THIS FUCKING CARBON BASED CIRCLE. HELLO??? And literally Prowl could have been like I’m gonna get ya assassinated so I CAN HAVE IT MY WAY. But Prowl was BORN for the RULES. To follow, to MAKE PEACE. Killing the prime figurehead is against that, even if it would make his life way easier! (hence, not that selfish and also sad that your life is the rules. That’s a short leash, but he makes due)
Honestly I feel bad for Prowl. Must suck to be so big brain that everyone hates you when you say the truths (but also you could learn some more tricks from Jazz to be nicer and hide the truth, but that’s scary because a nicer prowl means more people he can trick and use. Thanks Prowl for being so straightforward! Now people can avoid you easier). He's so straightforward about things that need to be done, he’s in constant denial about the grey area of life!
That’s why when Spike slapped Prowl with reality slaps, Prowl lost some of his shit. Remember, nearly everyone had the edgy depressed time in their teens or young adult years where you realize the world is truly unfair and nothing is black and white? Yeah. Slap that on a 6+ million year old robot with a battle computer and is capable of big brain CPU-age, and was literally built for the sole purpose of enforcing rules and making peace? And no one really cared about Prowl enough to understand him and his background. So Prowl goes through his angst moment alone with his huge titties, frustrated. THIS. IS. WHY. YOU. COMMUNICATE. YA DINGUS. 
Prowl doesn’t become a school shooter like Pharma cuz hes got bigger brain and a lot more power and control over himself, but he literally becomes Shadow The Hedgehog (Even if the world’s against me I’ll fight like I’ve always have). HE’S GONE ROGUE. MA’AM, SIR, THE FUCKING OREO COOKIE HAS TRANSFORMED AND ROLLED OUT.  like. OP was the one thing holding prowl back, which was good! But now prowl’s on the roll and bumblebee is too nice and passive to hold him back. + the bombshell brainwash? feels so bad. being prowl sucks. because Prowl is a necessary evil. 
At least he’s wonderfully blunt about his goal to create a peaceful cybertron, which makes it easier if you want to avoid him or smth. meanwhile you have fake people IRL that smile their way through and then slit your throat and you won’t even know it was them (hey jazz, no offense, but that’s what spec ops does). Fakers are the scariest enemy, but Prowl is still a threat, just not as big as a someone who fluffs you up on a balloon and then pops it. Prowl would just be like, hey, you’re really useful, come over here in my white van i wanna show you something and then maybe you get destroyed. But hey! You were the one with the highest chance of surviving compared to other people! Isn’t that great? You’re so skilled WOW. (Prowl gets punched. Again!) Prowl represents the necessary evil in society. We WILL ALWAYS HAVE EVIL people in this world. But Prowl is a far better evil than people who do evil for their own selfish reasons. It’s like how we have law enforcers and politicians . It’s basically giving them legal rights to do illegal things (lmao). BUT we need them regardless. We need those people to get their hands dirty, possibly killed, so that people can live in innocence and peace. 
I don’t think Prowl ever realized that he was a necessary evil, and when Spike showed him that, he was bitter. But he accepted it. Which I respect because most people can’t be bothered to understand themselves and just throw themselves in denial, and point fingers for their flaws. Prowl sucks up and understands who he is, and he makes the best of it to achieve his goal.  I mean, honestly? Prowl is probably a miracle worker. Not in a Ratchet sense. But look at the way modern governments run, nothing gets done, everything is stalled because no one has the guts to make sacrifices. Prowl would have gotten a shit ton of things done, man, and take quick efficient action. Even if he sacrifices many things for it.  (Warning. I do not condone any taking of lives, NO ONE has the right to judge whenever a person should live or die.)  Prowl reminds me of 秦始皇 (Qin Shi Huang), the king who unified China and sacrificed millions to make the Great Wall, canals, and road systems that last to this day. If it wasn’t for these accomplishments, China wouldn’t have been what it is today. Was it a good thing? For the future residents of China? Hell yeah. But the costs? Those are sins that can never be erased, and they are horrible and shouldn't be done ever again. Was it necessary? Perhaps. But that’s another discussion. Is Prowl evil? Depends on your definition of evil. Perhaps he’s justified, perhaps in his world, he’ll go down as the Qin Shi Huang of the Cybertronians. Regardless, Prowl like Pharma, is an EXCELLENT example to study on public ethics, and administrative officials should analyze him and learn from his mistakes and sins.  I think Prowl is not evil in a sense that he wishes to harm others, but evil in a sense of his apathy. Prowl is a necessary component to a functional society (someone to plot, to use people, to enforce rules even if some are sacrificed, someone who can get their hands dirty). He lives a terrible and sad fate, and I do not wish ANYONE to live a life like Prowl’s or look up to Prowl. Yes, he’s so clever and brilliant, but that kind of power will make you the loneliest person on Earth.
Thanks Prowl for taking the entire load of sin on your shoulders! Big MVP! You get nothing from the world except hate and contempt.  I would go on about him more but I have IRL stuff to do. I love Prowl as an example to tell people that MODERATION. COMMUNICATION. AND COMPASSION are important factors to have a healthy and good mental state. Prowl is the perfect example of someone who doesn’t want to empathize (haha so many people are like this today), who doesn’t want to try to use more braincells and friends help to make better plans that are more moderate and not extreme, and who doesn’t want to talk to anyone thinking its a waste of time or have difficulty explaining things.  BUT I LOVE G1 PROWL because he has far more patience and manners, and doesn’t take a darker, route for his goals. awhohdohd he’s baby,,, i wish all cops had patience and manners and in general open-minded yet cautious enough not to be taken advantage of,,,, perhaps then we wouldn’t have so much polarization and fighting with authority in this world.... 
uwuwwuwuwuw they did prowl so dirty in idw WAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH ;____;   Again, you are welcome to disagree or agree! I wrote this really quickly so I’m sure there will be points that could be clarified or edited. Prowl’s really complicated and I do not like to talk about current IRL problems, but Prowl represents a lot of problems in society. And I think it’s critical if we try to look at both perspectives to get an understanding on WHY people do these things, and is there a solution to AVOID making those same mistakes? There’s a couple of controversial things in this short essay I wrote, esp. about cops IRL. So feel free to have at it! Or ignore it! Whichever is more comfortable for you! Thanks for coming to my ted talk! Again, Prowl is a bad influence and a sorrowful life to live. please do not try to be like prowl. xD I won’t intrude on you if you do, because you have a right to live the life you want as long as you’re not hurting other people’s interests and wellbeing!

Discord server? Is there multiple people in it owo?
Yeah, there are a lot of people OwO Here are some of our introductions! (In order of how often they speak on the server) (Under the cut because there are too many of us djhsbdbhdfjhbfjhb)
Tumblr media
August hasn’t sent his image yet so there’s a placeholder. Anyway, because he hasn’t sent it in here’s a bit of stuff I know about him!
He will fight you. He will fight god. There is no stopping him. Owner of the server. Piss him off and you’re dead. (/j... mostly) Alongside NM and Jade, these three are the most chaotic. McDonalds! McDonalds! Scare him with proper grammar and punctuation. Speaketh in the fusty tongue- Online married to Jade. They might actually marry irl in several years, who knows- He/Him pronouns. I think he said he was genderfluid but my self-doubt brain is flaring up so just use he/him hggfdbjdhfbjjhvgfb
Tumblr media
Another placeholder! Why? Because Nightmare (AKA NM) hasn’t sent anything either B’D
Nightmare is chaotic, especially when around Clover. Save me from her. Constant Villain Arc but doesn’t mean any real harm. I think she’d actually cry if she found out she actually hurt one of us in any way <3 She will also fight god. Biggest Dream SMP lore absorber. Second place is Sin and third is Cosmic. Any pronouns, I’ll use she/her for Nightmare unless asked to not <3
Tumblr media
This is Chara! She’s the one of us most likely to ace a history exam and make a fighter jet in Minecraft UwU (Pronouns since they aren’t listed are She/They)
Tumblr media
This is Wildy (The mod writing out this post)! I’m the one who will blow you up with explosive bunnies in Terraria yet be scared to ask for something irl- Since I didn’t write anything out in mine, I’ll just list here:
Hurt anyone I know and I’ll steal your kneecaps. Filthy crime child, will commit arson for fun- Likes drawing, hurt/comfort, writing, gaming, and PLOT- Considered pure despite being one of the oldest members of the server. Cries when exposed to character death and certain songs in key moments. Also cries when lonely, which is worryingly often B’) Draws with a mouse >:D She/Her pronouns, will say “I’m a GIRL” if you get it wrong and if I don’t despise you. Multishipper Rairpair hell, Oumaede hours go brrrr- Chiaki kinnie with potential ADHD pog- Will talk about self or OCs too much, but ask about how I’m feeling and I’ll spend 5 minutes buffering before saying that I’m tired because I genuinely cannot tell what’s wrong with me 99% of the time :3 Questioning in several ways, someone save me.
Tumblr media
Another placeholder cause Sin exists too-
Sin is second place on the Dream SMP lore absorber leaderboard, second only to Nightmare and her room almost completely designed for screaming about it. She/Her pronouns (which actually surprised me cause everyone in the server referred to her with they/them and I just checked her roles szjhbndjbfhjb) Very very good at writing in rps. Like damn. I actually don’t have much more to note even though Sin is very pog. Her persona is part spider tho :3
Tumblr media
This is Olive! Fellow Danganronpa fan pog UwU (Pronouns since they aren’t listed are She/They)
Tumblr media
Final placeholder is for Cosmic!
Third place in Dream SMP lore absorber. He’s really far behind though hehe- Another Danganronpa fan. Probably hates V3′s mastermind a lot- He/Him pronouns Again, don’t have much to note about him.
Tumblr media
This is Tina! She’s been more active on the server lately, which is very pog.
Other members of the server who either aren’t as active, are people I barely know, or aren’t participating are:
Jade (Any pronouns) - August’s online SO.
Nova (She/Her) - The person I once had a debate with about whether or not tomatoes were fruit :3
Abby/Kittybunny (She/They/Kit/Bun/more neos) - The person who also likes Rain World and Warriors :D
J (He/They) - Nightmare’s friend who kinda intimidates me.
Akira??? (She/Her) - I genuinely either don’t know or forgot who this was I’m sorry-
Ash (Unknown Pronouns) - Also barely know/remember this person, but they seem pog.
And more, but I’m too tired to add them lol

NOTES:
It's been a while. I've had these two chapters written for a while now but I haven't had time to sit down, edit them a little better and post them. Since I have time now, I thought I'd go ahead and do that, whether you guys asked for these next two chapters or not.
Sorry this took forever! Sorry I'm so slow, I've been settling into a new house and taking care of some IRL stuff / taking a little break. I swear, I'm going to update everything sooner or later. >.>
I love you guys.
WARNINGS:
NON/ LOOSE CANON COMPLIANCE - this is the biggest warning, so if you’re into things that follow exact canon plot you are… definitely not going to like this. ANGST & SLOW BURN, HEAVY SEXUAL TENSIONSTARTING NOW, ACTUALLY - this is just so everyone who started reading this thinking the smut would transpire in a hurry knows that apparently, it is not. VIOLENCE / SWEARING & FIGHTING, POSSIBLE UNDERAGE DRINKING AND OTHER SHENANIGANS- look.. it’s high school. shit happens. also apparently, my ofc Alyssa uses the word fuck like all the time?…EVENTUAL SEXUAL CONTENT / A VIRGIN ORIGINAL CHARACTER- this one is self explanatory. yes, i plan to write a smutty chapter in this at some point. when? i don’t rightly know. it’s got a while before we get there. STALKER TW - this chapter marks the true appearance of Alyssa's ex, Dave Novak. It's hinted heavily that he's a gross asshole who likes to play mind games.
If you're under 18+, probably not a good or wise idea to continue reading this series. Because there are going to be a few dark and adult themes within. I'll warn here, of course, but you need to understand that I don't control you. If you continue to read after having read the warnings and you're upset or don't like something... Totally on you, friend.
PAIRING:
Andrews!Sibling OFC x Sweet Pea.

[773 - 589 - 7956] attachment
[773 - 589 - 7956] I think I decided how you can repay me, scarlet…
[773 - 589 - 7956] Better enjoy your quiet and happy little life while you still have it, scarlet. Because soon it’s all going to be ripped right out of your pretty little hands.
[773 - 589 - 7956] That boyfriend of yours isn’t even gonna be able to save you this time, scarlet. You’re mine.
[773 - 589 - 7956] See you soon, scarlet.
Each new text that came in had me tensing up. Careful to keep my phone out of sight of anyone who was nearby. My heart was about to beat right out of my chest and my stomach felt like it sank to the floor. I was barely listening to anything being said around me and I guess it was more obvious than I thought because Toni cleared her throat, nodding to the phone in my hand.
Gazing at me in concern.
“Everything okay? You look like you’re going to be sick.”
“Yeah,yeah. Everything is fine.” I lied. I think at that particular point in time, I was just trying to convince myself that this was all some kind of bad dream. Or worst case scenario, Dave was making empty threats.
Toni eyed me suspiciously. I tried to give her a convincing smile, but I’d have had to be an idiot to even think for a second that she believed me. She eyed my phone and reached for it. I managed to shove it in my pocket.
“Trust me.” I pleaded. She gave me a wary look and sighed, grumbling “Fine, okay. Alright.” under her breath.
And I did my best to push the texts out of my head. Jumping in the conversation she had going on with Cheryl and Veronica. Laughing and talking as if nothing were wrong.
Lying through the skin of my teeth.
XXX
“What’s got you so jumpy?”
The question caught me off guard. I wanted to tell someone what was going on, I really did, but… I didn’t want to worry anyone, either. I was at least 99.9 percent sure that there was absolutely no way that Dave would show up in Riverdale, at least that’s what I was hoping.
I did my best to play it off. Shoveling french fries into my mouth just so I didn’t have to answer right away. My cell phone lit up and I flinched before I could stop myself.
Toni reached for it and I quickly grabbed it and shoved it in my pocket. She gave me a concerned look and I muttered quietly, “Probably just Reggie...again.”
“Reggie’s with that new girl though?” Cheryl spoke up. Gazing at me thoughtfully. My breath caught in my throat because if anyone would catch on to there being something truly wrong with me or something off in the way I was acting, it’d be her or Polly.
So far, I’d managed to fool everyone else into thinking I was alright, even my dad and my brother.
,, Dave won’t come here, it’s not worth the hassle. He’s just playing mind games. That’s all this is. Pull yourself together.” the thought came and I managed a smile, shrugging.
“You’ve been acting weird all week, now that I’m thinking about it.” Cheryl was the one who said it and she gave me an expectant look. Waiting.
“I have not.”
,, I do have one secret I can spill. Maybe if I tell them about my crush on Sweetpea…” and so that’s what I did. Sighing as I reached for the shared plate of fries between the three of us. Raking my fries through my vanilla milkshake and taking a few deep breaths to kind of collect myself, both from Dave’s harassing texts and what I was finally about to get off my chest about having feelings for Sweetpea.
“You have. Start talking.” Toni spoke up, watching me. Sizing me up. If I had to guess, I’d pin money on her sitting across the booth, trying to figure out what was up with my jumpy attitude all week.
“Okay, alright. Fine. But what I’m about to tell you two does not leave this table, okay? It.. It can’t. If Sweetpea ever found out, pretty sure he’d start avoiding me and things would get weird.”
Toni and Cheryl exchanged a look and then Toni nodded. Chewing a mouthful of fries as she muttered calmly, “Go on.”
“ I may or may not have a crush on Sweetpea.”
“Oh, you definitely have a crush on him. It’s kind of obvious.” Cheryl gave a soft teasing grin and I sighed. Dragging my hand through my hair and taking a few seconds to let her words sink in. I almost dreaded asking, but I felt like I had to given that she said it was obvious. “Oh god.. He doesn’t suspect anything.. Right?”
“Oh, he’s the only one whose oblivious. But the rest of us, we’ve known a while.” Toni teased me. Then asked calmly, “Is that all? Why’s that have you so jumpy?”
“Because I know how bad I am at hiding things, okay? I was kind of… I dunno, freaking out I guess.” I eyed her, waiting. Searching her face in the hopes that she accepted what I said and didn’t keep pushing. A few seconds passed and she laughed softly. Took a sip of her strawberry milkshake and asked with a smirk, “Are you gonna do anything about it?”
“Probably not. Every time I even think about it, I manage to talk myself right out of it. He’d laugh his ass off, okay? Besides, remember all the flirting he was doing with Josie when they had to work together during the play?” I pouted as I pointed it out.
Cheryl and Toni exchanged looks and Toni laughed. “He was doing that to make you jealous. Or that’s what I think he was doing. Either way… I think you should do something. He’s not going to and trust me… I’ve known the guy my whole life. I know him well enough to say that I know he has a thing for you. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been so cranky when you two first met?”
“I thought he was just naturally grumpy?”
“Oh, he is, but the way he was towards you was totally different. He’s only that grumpy when he’s trying to keep his defenses up.” Toni informed me before finishing off her shake.
The door to the diner opened and Sweetpea walked in, Fangs in tow. The two of them were laughing about something. I gave both Cheryl and Toni a pleading look and Cheryl seemed to pick up on my unspoken plea to change the subject thankfully, because she asked, “Are you going to F.P’s retirement party at the Wyrm?”
“Yeah.” I answered, finishing off my milkshake. Sweetpea flopped into the booth beside me, carelessly slinging an arm over the back of the seat. His hand brushed against my shoulder and I swear just the small brush against me felt like someone had taken a livewire and dragged it over my body real slow.
Toni smirked at me, nodding at Sweetpea while he was too busy wolfing down french fries to notice and I shook my head.
“I dare you. No… I triple dare you.. Flirt with him.” Toni gave a teasing grin as she mouthed the words to me and I swallowed hard.
She’s not playing fair. She knows I can’t turn down a dare.
I happened to glance out the window of the diner and when I thought I saw Dave standing there, leaning against a streetlamp, one hand in his pocket and a cigarette dangling between his lips, I nearly choked. This prompted Sweetpea to start hitting me on the back lightly as he laughed and looked at me in concern. “Damn cherry, are you trying to kill yourself?”
Toni’s brow raised and Sweetpea explained what happened earlier in the day, how I’d nicked myself with the scalpel in our first period class while doing a dissection. What Sweetpea didn’t know was that when it happened, it was because I thought I’d seen Dave standing outside in the parking lot, only to blink and the parking lot be empty.
I have got to stop letting his stupid mind games get to me. It’s just because he’s texting me again. It’s just because he knows how to work me up and get me all scared, he used to be good at it when we dated.
He’d never come to Riverdale. He’s just doing this to me for his own sick amusement and every single time I let him get to me, especially when I’m to a point where I’m so paranoid I’m imagining that I see him everywhere lately, it’s letting him win and that pisses me off more than anything.
I’m supposed to be stronger than that, damn it.
Toni eyed me suspiciously and I braced myself. When she didn’t bring up my skittish behavior, I relaxed a little.
I wanted to tell someone what was going on, but at the same time, why? I’m pretty sure this is just Dave, being an absolute bag of dicks.
It has to be that. It has to be.
XXX
He stood outside some podunk little diner right in the heart of town. The hazy red neon gave off a comforting and inviting warmth and he lit his cigarette, fuming in anger as he watched her sitting inside.
“I know you’re not ignoring me, scarlet. I know you’re not.” he muttered, mostly to himself as he turned the collar of his leather jacket up against the wind and started to walk towards the South Side.
Maybe it was time he paid his old buddy Eric a visit. Eric was out of prison. Eric was the one who’d told him where Alyssa was to begin with, though he didn’t realize it.
Dave chuckled and shook his head as he walked towards the shitty apartments on the opposite end of town where Eric lived. Eric owed him a few favors. He was coming to collect.
“Did you really think I was jokin when I told ya I have friends all over? That you weren’t ever gonna get away from me?” he mused to himself as he knocked on the door of a first floor slum apartment.
Eric opened the door, leaning in it lazily. Blinking at him in a daze and smirking. High fiving him as he asked him why he was in town.
Dave whipped out his phone, showing Eric a picture of Alyssa. At first he gave him some story about her running off while he was in the pen. Eric wasn’t buying it, he could see it written in the expression on his face. And that only made him angry. Eric owed him. He was here to collect the favor owed. All he wanted was for Eric to help him out on this one little thing.
Eric shook his head, chuckling in disgust. Gazing at him with a brow raised. “I think you need to leave, man. Now. You don’t want the heat this is gonna bring down on you. And I’m not about to get on a Serpent’s bad side, even if the Serpent in question is just a damn kid.”
“See, I’d like to just put this all behind me, man... but she’s the whole reason I even went to prison to begin with. Then I get out and find out not only is my girl not loyal, she’s also the one who snitched on me?” Dave eyed Eric. Getting irritated because this was not how he saw the conversation going.
“I’m telling you, you need to leave. Forget about Alyssa. I see her around all the time with some kid… Sweet Pea or Green Bean, some shit. The Serpents are not people you fuck with, man. Not around these parts.”
“You know the Serpents aren’t shit to me… Right?” Dave quipped, smirking. “I’ve got this under control. I just need you to help me out a little… C’mon, man. You owe me.”
“I don’t fucking care. I’m not helping you do whatever it is you’re here to do. What I oughta do is put a bullet in your fucking head for even thinking I’d be down for this shit. She’s a kid, man. A fucking kid... Favor or not, man… I’m on the Serpents side with this. Not yours. You need to leave.” Eric warned, giving Dave a firm glare as he folded heavily tattooed arms over his chest.
“Oh, so that’s how you’re playin, huh? Okay. Alright. All I wanna do is see her again. I’m not going to do anything. I just want to straighten things out. Get a little closure on the situation...”
Eric scoffed. “This coming from the king of overreaction. I don’t trust you.I’m breakin code of my gang by even talking to your ass. Nope. The answer is no. I’m not helping. Do whatever you have to do to me, but I’m not about to help you scare some kid. I’ve got better things to do with my time, buddy...”
Dave’s arm shot out and he pinned Eric against the door of his apartment. Smirking at him calmly. “I know you haven’t forgotten just how much your sorry ass owes me. Because that’s what this sounds like.”
“I guess that’s what it is then. Because I’ve seen what the Serpents can do. I’m not about to bring all that down on my head.” Eric stepped back inside his apartment, slamming the door in Dave’s face, leaving him to glare at the closed door and take a swing.
“Guess I’m doing this all by myself.” Dave mused as he turned and wandered down to a shitty dive bar nearby. He needed to have a few rounds. Come up with a plan.
And a little after midnight, after finding himself a few new talkative friends in some local Ghoulies, things were starting to look up for him. And he was slowly forming a plan.
Now he just had to wait. Pick his moment. Toy with her a little more.
“I’m so close I can almost touch you, scarlet. Soon… Soon you’re going to pay for running your mouth to mommy about me...” he smirked to himself as he unlocked his hotel room and stepped inside.

Taking the Chance (Dean Winchester x Reader)
Author’s Note: MY FIRST SMUT FIC! If I recall correctly, I wrote this as a Galentine’s Day 2016 fic exchange with @mrswhozeewhatsis, and I went all out lmao. It took so long to write because I was an spn fic writer noob and inexperienced irl lol. It’s 4 pages of filth so I hope you all enjoy. :3
WARNING: NSFW 18+ ONLY, vaginal sex, oral sex (both receiving), dirty talk.
---
If God was still around and not gallivanting all over the place, Dean was sure He would’ve sent him to Hell (again) for all the things he was thinking of doing to you, but was too much of a wussy to actually do them. Because at this point, all Dean wanted to do was bend you over the kitchen counter and make you come on his lips and mouth. Or maybe whisper obscene things in your ear while succumbing you to pleasure with his fingers.
Dean’s fingers gripped the doorjamb tighter as he watched you strutting around the kitchen, swaying that ass tantalizingly in your silky sleep shorts that left little to the imagination. He didn’t know what the hell you were doing in there this late at night, but if this was actually a sign from God telling him to just make a fuckin’ move, no matter how far-fetched it was, then he wasn’t going to complain.
Well, it seemed perfect, actually: You were both single, both experienced in the sack. You were a beautiful woman and he was a handsome guy. Oh, and it was Valentine’s Day tomorrow—what better way to start the day than to wake up next to a beautiful woman he had sex with the night before, a woman who was also his best friend, a woman who he’d completely, irrevocably fallen in love with. So yeah, the situation seemed perfect.
Now all he had to do was actually make a move.
And he didn’t know how to do that without being an asshole and offend you. But then it seemed like the image of you in those sleeping shorts was permanently branded into his brain, and he decided that no, he wasn’t going to back down from at least trying.
As soon as he could get his legs to move.
Fuck.
***
You weren’t excited for tomorrow. Like, when somebody said the words “Valentine’s Day”, the images in your head would immediately be of heat-shaped balloons, rose bouquets, and marriage proposals and other cheesy shit. Not that there was anything wrong with that, but your favorite kind of Valentine’s Day was waking up next to the person you loved and having a nice breakfast. Okay, and maybe some good V-Day roll in the hay.
And every time you imagined your perfect Valentine’s Day, it would always be one person beside you: that one person with the striking green eyes and plush pink lips and smatterings of freckles all over his perfect face. That one guy with the deep, sonorous voice that made places down there tingle with delicious curiosity. That man who had a body carved by the gods, the one that had you imagining doing such filthy things with, the one that had you practically salivating at the thought of it on top of you, grinding slowly into you… maybe underneath you as you rode him to high heaven… Damn. You were sure that the image left you with a damp spot on your underwear.
You sighed, moving to the fridge and bending down to rummage through it for the stash of chocolate you were hiding just for this particular day. Well technically it was for tomorrow, but then you figured you could just eat them sparingly tonight and scarf them down when the clock struck 12. And maybe have a glass (or a bottle) of wine with you while—
You felt warm hands on your hips, making you jolt upwards and almost hit your head on the roof of the refrigerator. You quickly pulled yourself out of it and spun around to face the person who made you jump out of your skin.
It was Dean. And the way he was looking at you was making you feel like helpless prey. Not that you were opposed to that analogy…
“Dean,” you managed to whisper, worried that your voice was shaking. “What brings you in the kitchen tonight?” Yeah, nice work, Y/N, really original.
You felt his hands return on your hips, fingers gripping you tight. The sensation made warmth crawl into your belly. Oh, the thoughts you were having…
Dean seemed to get closer, and your breath hitched at his proximity. “Was just supposed to get a beer. But then I saw you… in this,” you felt his fingers run down your thigh and catch on the hem of your thin sleep shorts before gliding over the tank top you were wearing. You felt your nipples harden underneath it when he brushed the underside of your breasts, your cheeks flushing at the knowledge that you weren’t wearing a bra and Dean could see every single thing that he was making you feel. And you didn’t care because you were probably soaking through your panties, and you just wished that Dean would either let you go so you could do something about this, or that he would just take the initiative and--
The kiss he placed on your lips was bruising, the force he put in it making your back hit the fridge, and you were certain you’d see bruises tomorrow morning.
Dean licked your bottom lip harshly, almost begging for entrance, and you immediately complied, your fingers winding in his hair as your tongues met. Each swipe of his tongue against yours or on the roof of your mouth had you slowly melting into a puddle on the kitchen floor. Your fingers tugged his hair, eliciting a muffled moan from his plush lips. They were softer than you’d ever imagined.
You pulled back to breathe, and said, “Dean… please,” as you ground down on his thigh that you didn’t notice had been wedged between your legs. “Please just—,”
“Please what, Y/N?” he whispered against your ear, voice deliciously rough. He ground his hips into yours and you could feel his hardness under the flannel pajama pants he was wearing. The thought of him hard for you was enough for you to let out a broken moan of your own.
“Please,” you pleaded, desperately grinding on him. “I need you, Dean, just please—,”
Without another word he hoisted you up into his arms and carried you out and into his room, kissing you senseless all the while. You paused for a bit when your back hit his bedroom door hard, worried that you might’ve woken Sam up, but when you heard nothing, you looked at each other for one second and were immediately at each other again.
You blindly groped behind you for the doorknob and almost snapped it off when you finally found it. Granted, it was probably a bad idea to open the door without telling Dean because you both almost fell in when it opened, but you righted yourselves without any further injury.
Dean set you down and immediately went for your tank top, breaking the kiss to yank it over your head and then throwing it behind him. With one glance to your bare breasts, he basically lost it, bending down enough to catch a pert nipple in his mouth, and sucked, making you release a loud moan and grip his hair for dear life.
He picked you up again and set you down none too gently on the bed, pressing a hard kiss to your lips before trailing them down, nipping at your skin as he went, on your throat, in the valley between your breasts, just above your belly button, and finally stopping when he came in contact with your shorts.
Dean looked up at you, breath labored, his eyes boring into you with a clear question: Are you sure? And why wouldn’t you be sure?
You nodded, and the green-eyed hunter wasted no time and just tugged it down, along with your panties. The next thing you knew, his face was between your thighs and his tongue was on your clit and—OH SHIT HIS MOUTH!
It was like he was setting fire to your very core with the way he lapped at your clit, moaning all the while and sending the vibrations through you, making you shiver and moan and grip his hair as he worked you over. Pretty soon you felt yourself cresting, getting closer and closer to the edge, and then Dean pursed his lips and sucked on your clit and you were gone, shouting his name with your release.
You were boneless, but still somehow managed to return Dean’s kiss, tasting yourself on his tongue, and the knowledge that he was wholly comfortable kissing you after that tore a broken moan from your lips.
You broke away from him, your fingers still in his hair, and said, “Your turn.” He acquiesced to being pushed down on the bed, stripping off his t-shirt before lying fully down on the memory foam mattress. You straddled his hips and leaned down to press a gentle kiss to his lips, doing as he did and trailing down just until his neck, where you nipped and licked and sucked until there was a nice purple bruise right at the junction of his neck and shoulder.
He groaned when you rotated your hips right over the bulge in his pants. You were still wet from your previous orgasm and you knew he could feel it. Dean’s delicious groans filled your ears as you ground down on him, moaning your pleasure to the ceiling.
After a few more seconds of torture for Dean, you raised yourself up on your knees slightly to pull his pants down. He helped, ending up sitting down and face-to-face with you as he kicked them off. You couldn’t help but steal a few more kisses before pushing him down forcefully.
You didn’t give him a chance to recover as you shimmied down his legs and took a second to marvel at his cock before taking him in your hand and pumping him gently, slowly, savoring all the groans and moans that tumbled from his mouth.
Leaning down you kissed a line from the base of his cock all the way to the tip, giving it a little lick before taking him in your mouth.
At that, Dean let out a punched-out groan and a yell of your name as you bobbed up and down. You could make out his knuckles, white with the grip he had on the bed sheets, hips fighting to keep still as you sucked and tongued him, one hand pumping what you couldn’t fit in your mouth because he was just that big.
“Ugh,” Dean groaned out, “Y/N, stop… Please…”
You immediately ceased, worried that you did something wrong. “What is it? Sorry, do you want to stop? We can stop if you’re not comfortable…” Wow, now you were rambling. Maybe you did do something wrong because if Dean was feeling good he wouldn’t have stopped you, right?
“No,” Dean said, sitting up and capturing your lips in another breathtaking kiss. “I don’t want to stop what we’re doing,” he was murmuring against your lips, dragging his teeth along your bottom lip; you let out a moan at the slight bite of pain. “It’s just that when I to come,” Dean slipped a finger in your wet heat and curled it towards himself, making you buck up against his hard cock, “I want to come inside you.”
You dropped your head back and moaned, bucking your hips up again.
When Dean flopped back down after giving you another kiss, you were a bit confused, expecting him to be the one taking the lead for your first time together. Said mad smirked, gripping your hips tightly as he said, “I want you on top, sweetheart. I wanna see those beautiful tits bounce while you ride me—OH, GOD, Y/N!”
You’d impaled yourself on his cock right then, and stayed still, trying to adjust to his size, wiggling a little bit and whimpering because you were so wet and your clit was singing, crying out to be stimulated and you just wanted to move. It didn’t help that you felt Dean twitch inside you, feel him shaking, trying to hold off on bucking up into you until you were comfortable enough to start moving. His grip on your hips was tight, but you didn’t mind—you liked having this effect on him, liked just how much you affected him.
You ground against him, slowly, experimentally, loving how well he fit inside you and how delicious he felt. Soon you were bouncing up and down his cock, the room filled with the sound of skin slapping against skin, breathy moans, near-screams, punched grunts, and heavy breathing.
“Dean…” you whimpered, thighs shaking as you felt your orgasm near. “Dean, please, I—I can’t—,”
“Hold on sweetheart.” Dean held you still and started thrusting up hard and fast into you, and you screamed your release within minutes, sure that your fingernails were going to leave marks on his shoulders.
Dean kept thrusting into you, aggravating your sensitive sex, making you wetter and you felt heat rise in your core again. The hunter helped you step over the precipice and into another orgasm, and this time he came with you, groaning your name into the crook of your neck.
You two stayed in that position for a while, waiting to come down from your respective highs. When you figured you could stand up without wobbling, you raised yourself up and scooted backwards until you flopped down on the bed. Dean, being the less jellied of the two of you from your excursions, stood up and grabbed the t-shirt he was wearing, coming back to you to clean up the mess you both had made. He got a peck on the nose for that afterwards.
“Go ahead, Y/N,” he called over his shoulder. “Just let me clean up, and I’ll be there in two shakes.”
So you went, flopping yourself down on Dean’s soft pillows and making yourself comfortable.
The last thing you registered before you conked out was a warm body sliding behind you, and Dean snaking his arm around your waist to pull you closer.
***
When Dean woke up he didn’t know what he was supposed to expect. Sure, a part of him hoped that he would wake up to your warm body tucked against his. It would’ve been greatly welcomed, especially after that amazing sex last night. But it looked like he spoke too soon.
Your side of the bed was cold, only a small depression in the mattress and your half of the covers drawn back were the only indications that you were ever in bed. Dean sat up and looked around the room, noticing that your clothes were gone, and his were folded up at the foot of the bed.
He mentally kicked himself for even hoping that you’d give him a chance for a relationship. After all, he’d broken the world several times, got so many people killed, and died once or twice himself—he couldn’t really fault you for not wanting him, despite what had transpired between you the night before.
Dean sighed, running a hand through his hair and staring at the space you’d slept in solemnly, thinking of how badly he fucked up and—
The door opened slowly, revealing a fully-clothed you, carrying a tray with two steaming mugs of coffee, a plate stacked high with pancakes, a container of maple syrup and one for butter, and two sets of forks and knives.
“Hey,” you said, carefully closing the door with your back and walking towards him. “Didn’t think you’d be up so early.” You placed balanced the tray on the mattress and carefully sank down on it. You took a mug and offered it to Dean, who was speechless at your gesture. “Why so quiet, Dean?”
“I—,” it was like his tongue didn’t want to function. “I just—… You weren’t here when I woke up, so I thought you… regretted what happened last night.”
To Dean’s surprise, you laughed. “What are you talking about, Dean? How could I regret that?” you said, picking up your mug and nursing it. “Last night was… It was fantastic.” Dean thought he was hallucinating, but he swore he could see you blushing. “I don’t think I’ll ever regret it.” You blew air into the coffee, trying to cool it down, doing anything to avoid looking Dean in the eyes.
Meanwhile said hunter had a huge grin on his face, relieved that you weren’t mad at him for suddenly coming on to you last night. And right now, you looked so adorable, clad in your sleep shorts and a t-shirt from the back of his dresser that had seen better days. He just couldn’t help but lean in and kiss the corner of your mouth.
“Happy Valentine’s Day, Y/N,” he whispered, resting his forehead on yours and looking lovingly into your eyes.
The corners or your mouth quirked up in a smile and you pecked his lips with a murmured, “Happy Valentine’s Day, Dean.”

helloooo!!!! since you are my fave blog about shyan content, i must ask: what are your favorite fics???
AHhh! I–OK well, Lately I’ve been finding more and more fics that fill my heart right up with every gorgeous headcanon there is, but If we’re talking all-time favourites, I have finally compiled a List from the moment I started reading shyan fic in 2018 of fics that have ruined my life; all of them here in no particular order.
Be All My Sins Remembered by spoopyy
Summary: In every lifetime, they find each other.
Review: This fic manages to take you on a long journey through what feels like a series of AUs and they all weave in and out of the wealth of their relationship with some vivid descriptions of the historical settings their journey takes them through. As someone who grew up reading Anne Rice’s epics through historical events, this fic is right up my alley. A vampire Shane passing through the wave of human society’s climb searching for a reincarnated Ryan again and again, trying to hold on to him and keep him through great tragedies and timeframes that just don’t let them be together. This was one of the first fics I read when I was only a lurker and to be quite honest, I need to give this one a nice re-read, maybe for the book club which would be loads of fun. Either way, 10/10. Would be Hurt in the heart again.
Perfect Fit by @beaniegara
Summary: There’s a legend that says anyone able to take all of statue Shane’s cock will summon the god to the mortal realm. Given the statue’s excessive size, no one has ever succeeded to prove or disprove the story.Until Ryan that is.
Review: Listen. You wanna talk actual fandom legends. This fic is one of them and it pulls out all the stops on being delicious and evocative. Also features one of my favourite incarnations of size queen bergara. Good stuff and you’re really rooting for Ryan in this lol. 
Everything’s Weird and We’re Always in Danger by the beethechange
Summary: Ryan perches on the edge of the bed, an indistinct shape that Shane can only just make out in the dark, so he turns the lamp back on. He wants to see Ryan’s face, wants to know that he is alright. Ryan’s cheeks are damp, his hands fisted in the hideous flowered duvet.
“It won’t go away,” Ryan says miserably. “I’ve been like this since we got here, basically, and it won’t fucking—”
“Ah,” Shane says. “Well, you know, sometimes fear…adrenaline…they can affect people. Physically.” He waves his hands indistinctly crotchward. “It’s a, a scientifically known phenomenon.” Shane feels a little better staying in the realm of scientifically known phenomena.
Review: Word of advice. You see a fic is authored by beethechange, run don’t walk because you’re absolutely always going to be treated to the best of banter, the best of prose, chemistry, organic execution and feels right up the bottom end of your heart. This fic, this changed everything I thought I knew I wanted out of a bed-sharing fic. It’s got a little bit of two treats here. You got a sex-pollen-esque situation mixed with bed-sharing and holy fucking damn that is more than you think you deserve, but read this because you do deserve the best of the best. The build up, the dialogue, the surprisingly hilarity of it, the hotness woah, and The Aftermath. When you think you know what you’re in for, you’re wrong and you’re most pleasantly surprised. Get this fic in your life and honestly? while you’re at it, you could do a clean sweep of every fic in her list of works and while my less than adequate reading time management may still be short on some of her most well-recommended pieces, I have an adamant faith that Bee doesn’t disappoint. Go get y’all juice.
Maelstrom by thewindupbird
Summary: Here’s the thing about driving halfway across the country to see someone. You can’t really deny, after that, that you’re pretty much head over heels for them.
Review: Listen. One morning on a day off, I just laid in bed and read this– all 40k+ words– while lying there clutching my pillows, hurting and loving every moment of it. The descriptions of Americana, the slow steady metronome rhythm of Ryan’s feelings as frightened and helpless as they feel when you’re relating deeply to them juxtaposed with the deep-seated struggle of understanding what it is to be with someone you love so much but your mental health is burning quiet holes in your ability to express it in a way that can be understand. Ryan’s fierce determination, breaking through the silence of their non communication is really Everything to me in this fic. i think I really left my heart in the scene in Shane’s parents kitchen. That finished me. Read this fic and understand the deep relief you get when you’ve finished a fight with someone you fiercely care about and they understand you and you understand them and it’s OK; it’s gonna be all right. Augh. 
A Burial on Box Hill by InkStainsOnMyHands
Summary: The Celtics believed that the yew flower symbolized both immortality and death. Meanwhile, for centuries, the buxus flower was seen as a symbol for safe passage into the afterlife.
Or,Shane and Ryan were never the same after investigating the Black Forest of Germany alone.
Review: Let me just quote my bookmark comment here. Usually I flee from tragedy like a cat spotting a cucumber but the brevity and the prose dragged me in and now I’m a functioning mess. Bless this fic. Oh my god it’s short and reads like one of those quick horror stories you’ll read to your friends just as the scary stories are transitioning from the urban legends to the ones that feel real. Big warning for main character death but still read it if you appreciate a good story told.
Body Farming by shiphitsthefan
Summary: Failed suppressants and a surprise heat: the worst of cliches, and here Ryan stands, living the trope on location with the alpha he’s hopelessly in love with. Even worse, they’re spending the night in the famous Bell Witch Cave, completely alone and with no way to contact the outside world.
Ryan knows he can survive and keep his preheat a secret, as long as Shane will stop being so protective and concerned. After all, it’s not like Shane wants to bond with him.
Right?
Review: Now judging from the reactions of many people I’ve spoken to, big heavy ABO kink is not popular here but guys, GUYS. This one. Let this one in I promise it is not what you think it is. The dynamic is organic and the worst side of the trope is subverted in all the best ways and lord help us, the smut is hot, like swelteringly smoking. It’ll stay with you. 
Believer by cellard00rs
Summary: Some demons and otherworldly creatures love climbing up the power ladder. Shane is not one of these. He likes where he is (thank you very much) and has no interest in moving up. All he wants is to give his friend Ryan a nice birthday gift. So, naturally, everything goes to hell.
Review: This fic is another fandom legend. When I think demon!Shane. It’s this and one other one that always pops right into my mind. This was my first exposure to the bureaucracy meets the supernatural!Shane trope and I was sold from the get-go. The Shane in this fic is everything I imagine a demon!Shane is and his ginger care for Ryan, the concept of their bond and how even though Shane is a demon and responsible for keeping the supernatural a firm secret from Ryan and the rest of the world, his skepticism is relayed through his status as a demon. I want to talk more about it but I think so much of the enjoyment comes from the surprises as the plot unfurls. 
Heartbeat by quackers
Summary: So the guy Ryan sits next to at work is a vampire. That’s no big deal, right?
Review: I could talk your literal ear off about this fic. Vampires, man. I love the trope; you don’t know me as a person if you don’t know this at least. And this fic kept me fed all damn year. It was a readable garden. If there is one thing I can guarantee about quackers’ work, it’s that their world-building is a festival of detail. The realms and alternate universes they work with while still managing to keep Shane and Ryan’s voices so familiar and real is a talent not attributed to your everyday author. This fic propelled me into wanting to write more and more because quackers makes stories so much fun! Reading their work is, to me, not unlike the feeling I got when I was younger and finding series that speak to my need to escape this crummy existence, made me want to believe in fun spicy things like a vampire that lived through centuries, cynical but still searching, navigating a world where people are still people, adjusting to differences and prejudices, finding comfort in a guy that understands that and more. I’ve talked about this fic in more than a few different posts so I’d just be reiterating a lot of things I loved about the more historical aspects of Shane’s journey, the way Ryan is so firmly curious and inventive in ways to connect with Shane. Look, even if vampires aren’t your thing, I can promise that if you visit quackers list of work, you will find something for your supernatural-lovin’ palate that speaks to a gentler side of your own curiosity about monsters and the jocks that love them. lol.
I’ll Crawl Home by carrieonfighting
Summary: “Shane was almost unnerved by how quickly he’d settled into this body, this name, this life - his friendship with Ryan was the most time he’d spent with any human before, and yet the man fascinated him.”
Review: This is the second fic I think of when someone says the words ‘demon!Shane’ to me because ohhhh my word, this fic is a masterpiece. I really am hard pressed to find anything better than the feeling I get when I think of demon!Shane headcanons interwoven with the irl Buzzfeed reality and the idea of the Ryan as we know him being protected and watched and loved so deeply by a demon that found him so long ago and wanted nothing but to protect him. I feel an almost vicious glee reliving that moment when Ryan and Shane are on goatman’s bridge and man, I just really love canonical fic mixed with a slight twist. The writing in this makes it work so well with lines that still haunt my heart and soul like “Ryan liked popcorn. So did the demon. Genuinely, not just out of a desire to please the human – he liked the way it crunched between his vessel’s teeth. There were some aspects of taking a corporeal form that were…nice; laughing, coffee, feeling warm. Ryan made him laugh.” FUCK! The beautiful agony of it, watching the demon fall in love with Ryan through the eyes of his vessel. Just stark with pain and unspoken, well-written angst and pain with a perfect ending, I wouldn’t change for anything. I love this for us as a fandom and will always love that author crafted this piece and shared it with us. (Also every time I hear Work Song by Hozier, I think of this fic again and sigh).
Like I said at the beginning, thanks to @skepticbeliever-bookclub I’ve been discovering and re-discovering some fics I hadn’t had the chance to read and or have never even heard of before and my bookmarks list is growing with each new week. So if you get through this list and need more in your life, here you go. Every fic in my bookmarks deserves the community’s attention. If I can just make one special request of you guys? If you do happen to click any of these and enjoy what you read, please take the time and tell the author what you loved about it. It really changes the game out here for fanworks and fan-creators like you wouldn’t even believe and the people who shared these works with us worked hard to make the stories what they are and put a great deal of emotional investment in sharing it. Share more than your silence in return. 
Hope you find something you like here, nonnybabe..
