Are You Sure?! Episode 4 observations

8.5/10 ☆

When will Army cancel Jimin and Jungkook? When will ot7 jikookers and vminers and vminkookers make call out posts for them? Jimin and Jungkook should express that all encompassing love for the entire members of their group all the time. Pointing out throughout the entire first day that Tedros is their guest or that they he should leave if he doesn't like it, that he's looking for attention or that AYS is their show, not for other people, was giving mean girls behavior. How is that nice? They love their guest but they're shading him. I think we should totally cancel Jikook!

But how the tables have turned once the kid that tagged along went to bed and the adults could play. Oh, we were back to Connecticut vibes once again. Which are basically the usual jikook vibes in where every little game needs to have a hint of flirtation (I wonder what Jimin would have done if Jungkook wouldn't have warned him about the glass part in the pool? Jimin was in slytherin mode the minute he took off his clothes).

From enganging in intricate rituals to touch each other (as always) to go through a long negotation over eating ramyeon or not (what's ppeuriri got to do with everything? I love their inside jokes and hate them at the same time. Let me in!!!! I was waiting for the bj brothers and when they deliver even some innuendos, it riles me up).

I'm not a BL fan of regular watcher, but this looks like the beginning of one of those steamy scenes where they show them fuck on some balcony or in the pool. Just sayin'.

Say yes and eat the damn ramyeon, Jungkook!

I like Jikook's nighttime routines. Although so far they have been quite tame, no drinking or other shenanigans. They do teeth brushing yoga or they cuddle up and talk about work and their schedules before bed. And there's no bed without Jimin's legs all over Jungkook (I'm sure he must be dreaming of those thighs at this point).

Can it get more domestic than Jungkook talking to his mother and her already knowing about their schedule?

I have a feeling she and Jimin text each other regularly. Oh, if only they had filmed just a bit during their Chuseok weekend in Busan (I do assume Jimin went too, but 🤷‍♀️). I need to see Jimin with Jungkook's mother. She would dot on him and Jimin would be so respectful but shy and oh, I get all giddy just thinking about him. Busan boys, please visit your home town one day and share that with the world!

I refuse to accept the existence of Jimkook, sounds ugly, forced, it doesn't roll off the tongue. But Jikook? Yeah, that works. And they were in full jikook mode on the boat. That embarrassing CPR manouver by Jimin is yet another sign that they will remain that cringe couple. How did Tedros survive on that boat? No wonder he took a step back from all that up until the end.

The entire afternoon on the boat really gave us a glimpse into their original plans and how once again, they just click. They never push it, they want to do the same things and they have fun. And we still got the cuddle and drawing whales out of clouds without that moment turning into something else.

When Jimin is in top shape, without any other illness looming over their vacation, then we know we're in for some entertainment. He's much more engaging and laughs at everything while Jungkook is right there next to him, ready to joint whatever Jimin wants to do.

(Who would have thought that Tedros headbanging the first day would make him take a step back and allow them to do their own thing how they originally planned? I have lots to say about him, but for another post, there's too many nice things that happened and I focus on that at first)

And now, a few more highlights:

What is this? Cutie Jiminie who can also get angry while stuffing his face with rice and noodles and chicken all at the same time? You are what you eat. Or whom 🤭

Jungkook has always been an expert at such lines, how can Jimin still be surprised after a decade? That's what you get. You have the tattoed guy who's really into bikes and Jimin who is clearly into all that, but he's gotta take the lame lines too.

CAPTAIN | r. zoro

synopsis: the captain of the hockey team really gets on your nerves. authors note: hi! i'm back from the dead to offer this fic! i saw a tik tok and got inspired. it was a sports au of hockey player zoro and I was obsessed and wrote this! hope you guys like :) might write a part two since I really like this pairing. also was thinking of doing a series where all the one peice characters play different kinds of sports :)

cw: sports au!, hockey player zoro, not proofread, slightly suggestive wc: 3.5k

click here for my masterlist

--------------------------------------------------------

You would venture to say you're a pretty reasonable person. You never got angry easily, or upset. You kept it together pretty well usually. 

Usually.

Today… Well, today was an exception. Actually it was always an exception when Rorona Zoro was in the rink. He was one of those rowdy hockey players that you would mostly ignore. You worked at the ice rink on weekends and most of the time you got lucky. The players would either be at away games or out partying on weekends. But not Roronoa Zoro. If you could say one nice thing about him it was that he is dedicated to his craft. You had the displeasure of being stuck talking with him and a few of his hockey buddies one day. Who knew this one day would taint the rest of the times you saw him.

His hockey friends were desperate, you’d think they’d never talked to a human woman before in their life the way they pounced on you. Asking you tons of questions about your life, if you had someone, who was your type, did you fancy anyone. By the time they were done asking you felt as though it was an interrogation. You were about to tell them you had to get back to work when suddenly Zoro spoke first.

“Leave the girl alone.” He’d walked out of the showers, his green hair damp and messy. “She clearly doesn’t like being interrogated.” He grumbles. The rest of the team sighs but they listen to the green haired man, leaving you be. You watch as they head back towards the showers, letting out a sigh of relief.

“Thanks.” You had said, he shrugged.

“You should learn to speak up for yourself, rink girl.” He says and before you can respond he’s gone back towards the locker room.

Asshole.

After that you didn’t even spare him a glance, let alone a moment of your time. When he’d check in you’d slide the clipboard over to him not even looking up. It was a bit petty but you felt slightly vindictive towards him. Maybe not entirely towards him but also the company he keeps. His other hockey friends are atrocious to be around. They stare and ask for your number and try to eat lunch with you and just bother you relentlessly. Also despite them all claiming to have interest in you they call you rink girl because of Zoro even though your name is on a tag on the front of your shirt.

Days like today were no different. Once again two of the players were at your desk, asking about your day and pretending to care.

“Still no guy?” The blond one asks, you never learned their names since they didn’t care to learn yours. You clicked your pen, you had paperwork to do and were in a particularly bad mood. 

“Still no girl?” You snap, the blond one pouts but the brunette one snorts a laugh.

“I see why Captain likes you so much.” The blond one mutters under his breath. You barely hear it, your brows furrowing.

“What?”

“Dude… shut up.” The brunette intercepts, knocking the blond in the back of the head. The familiar ding of the front door sounded as Zoro entered the building. “Oh shit… let’s go, hurry!” The blond gasps, you watch the two players practically sprint and trip over each other to get away from your desk. You furrow your brows as Zoro clears his throat. It makes you jump.

“Jesus!” You gasp.

“No, it’s Roronoa.” He says as he watches you place a hand over your heart, the other grabbing the clipboard for him to sign. 

“Ha-ha.” You mock, sliding it to him. For the first time in a while you look at him. It’s cold out so he’s bundled up slightly, his cheeks lightly dusted pink from the cold. He’s almost… handsome? You never really noticed. You can’t look away… well until his eyes meet yours. You look away quickly as he clicks the pen and places it on the clipboard, sliding it back to you. When you reach to grab it back your fingers just barely grace his hand. He’s warm, despite just being out in the cold. You clear your throat, pulling your hand away quickly, busying yourself with your paperwork again. 

“Hey,” He says as your hand pauses and you slowly look up at him. He looks at you for a moment, as though he’s trying to read something on your face.

“What?” You ask, slightly concerned that he’s lingering at your desk more than usual.

“I saw those two idiots talking to you.” He says and you're not sure if it’s a question or a statement so you nod your head. His jaw tenses as he sighs heavily. “Are they bothering you?” He asks. You stare at him for a moment, trying to read his face to know whether or not he was messing with you. He was infinitely serious.

“No. I can take care of myself.” You say with a tad bit of venom in your voice. He nods his head, the look in his eyes unreadable.

“Good.” He says and with that walks towards the locker room without another word. You watch him go, very confused. 

A few hours pass as you walk back to your desk after lunch. The players are leaving for the day, some of them wave at you and you wave back halfheartedly. When the blond and brunette from earlier today pass they walk past you like wounded dogs, very clearly avoiding looking in your direction. Zoro isn’t with him curiously and as it gets later you see he’s the only one who hasn’t checked out and since the rink is closing soon you sigh and hop up from your chair. You walk into the locker room first, silence fills as you poke your head around the corner. Sure enough his locker is open and full of his stuff. You make your way towards the rink you know he’s in there before you even catch sight of him. You hear the sound of his hockey stick smacking against the puck sending it flying through the air, it swishes into the net with ease. A perfect shot. He hasn’t noticed you watching as he sails across the ice to retrieve the puck and set up again for another drill. He’d gotten much better in the months he practiced here. He played like a possessed man, much different from the person you watched practice months and months ago. Not that you knew anything about hockey but there was a reason this man was the captain. 

“Enjoying yourself?” Zoro calls out to you. You jump again for the second time again, blowing out a breath, holding your heart again. “Someone’s jumpy.” He mumbles as he lines up a shot, sending it sailing down the ice into the goal. You clear your throat.

“We close in six minutes.” You call out to him coldly, turning. 

“Hey,” He calls out to you. You're not sure why but you pause, turning as he skates to you, the only thing shielding him from you was a thick piece of acrylic glass that spanned the entirety of the ring. “You play?” He asks as you furrow your brows.

“Hockey?” You ask, looking up at him. Was he always this damn tall? He nods his head, reaching up and wiping sweat from his brow. You scoff, slightly amused.

“No.” You answer and his eyes travel from your own down your body then slowly, agonizingly slowly back to your eyes. You're blushing by the time he meets your eyes again.

“Think you can block me?” He asks and you stare at him incredulously, it takes you a long moment to answer. 

“W-what?” You question, he cocks his head, smirking down at you. 

“I said… Do you think you could block me?”

“I heard you.” You sigh. “And no… I don’t think I could block you.”

“Why not?” He asks, leaning against the glass.

“B-because you're like eight foot tall and hundreds of pounds.”

“Ouch… you make me sound like a monster.” He tsks, still with that grin on his lips.

“You are… you're huge.” You say and a second later your words cause you to blush and look away.

“Uh huh.” Zoro hummed, laughing slightly. You swallow, clearing your throat. “Put on some skates, Y/n, if you can’t guard me I’ll need a goalie.”

“We’re closing, in fact we're probably closed already.” You say as he shrugs his shoulders.

“Hmm… didn’t take you for the scared type.” He says, slowly skating towards the puck.

“I…” You stutter, scoffing a laugh. “Am not scared.” You finish as he shoots you a look, a challenging one. It was stupid really. Stupid that you found yourself sliding into skates and sailing right towards him in the rink. “Fuck,” You curse, not able to stop as you practically crash right into him. But it’s more like hitting a damn wall, he barely budges and grabs you before you can go down. “Sorry.” You breathe out, his hands are on your hips, stabilizing you, your hands on his shoulders trying to keep your balance. 

“You can’t even skate?”

“I just haven’t done it in a long time.” You say feeling a rush of something entirely out of your control when his hands slowly let you go. “I’m fine,” You say, testing the waters as you skate around a tad bit. He watches you like a hawk and when it looks like you're about to go down he’s there in seconds, those big hands back on your hips. 

“I think it’s safe to say I’ve won this game before we even started.” He says with a slight laugh as he slides off his jacket. You shake your head vehemently. 

“Nuh uh! I just-- need to warm up, that’s all.” You say, staring at the ground as your hands grip his forearms.

“Here,” He says, placing his jacket on your shoulders, it smells like him, like something warm and woodsy. You slide your arms through the sleeves. “Look up,” He says. A moment later your eyes find his, something sparks between you, your stomach doing a flip. “Don’t stare at your feet as you skate.” He directs as you nod your head, not trusting yourself to speak and not mess up your words. Slowly he starts skating backwards, holding you as you keep up with his pace. Slowly you fall back into your old routine, able to skate on your own. 

“See… told ya’.” You say a bit cockily, almost falling again but catching yourself. Zoro smiles softly, shaking his head. You could crash looking at the smile alone. You force yourself to look away. “So… how do we play?” You ask as Zoro grabs and tosses his stick to you, you catch it with ease. 

“We’ll play for five minutes, if you can score one goal on me you win.”

“I thought I was gonna play goalie?” You ask.

“I’d rather me get hit with pucks than you.” He says, warmth spreads through you at that, so you don’t answer him. He reaches and zips up your jacket before skating towards the goal. He turns to face you, crouching slightly, nodding his head to you. Game on, you guessed. 

You skated a few feet before hitting the puck hard. It sails and misses the goal by at least a couple feet. Zoro laughs.

“You’re trying right? That wasn’t even anywhere close.” He mocks as you skate to grab the puck.

“I don’t even know if I’m holding his damned thing right!” You call out, shaking his stick at him. 

“You’re not.” he says and you huff.

You hit the puck again and again and again. A few times you made it close to Zoro but he just batted it away with ease. You weren’t sure how much time passed before you were hitting the puck again, missing, the force of the hit making you lose your balance and slam onto the ice. You lay sprawled out on the ice as Zoro skates over quickly to your side. You took the opportunity to hit the puck where you laid and slowly it glided into the goal.

“She shoots! She scores!” You cheer from the ground as Zoro scoffs a heartily laugh, his cheeks dusted that same pink from earlier.

“That was a dirty play.” He grins, looming above you. 

“It was a play all the same right? Is that five points? I don’t know anything about hockey.” You skirk as Zoro lends you a hand, you take it.

“It’s one point.” He laughs, pulling you easily to your feet. 

“One point…” You trail off. “I slammed into the ground for one point.” You say and Zoro breathes out a laugh, nodding his head. “What do I win for beating the captain? Bragging rights?”

“You can’t utter a word of this to my team.” He says in a mock serious tone as a smirk grows on your lips. 

“You can’t tell me that, Roronoa, I’m the captain now.” You say as Zoro raises a brow, his cheeks going even more pink.

“Is that right?” He asks, his voice a rasp. You notice than how close you two are standing, you're still holding his hands, the warmth of them radiating through you. 

“That’s right.” You confirm, keeping a well placed poker face. 

“Got another round in you?” He asks as you shake your head.

“Y/N! Is that you?” Your boss called as you heard the door being pushed open. Your heart drops in your chest, the alarm showing on your face. “What’re you doing?” Your boss asks as you stutter out a sorry.

“She was helping me clean up, sir, sorry for keeping her.” Zoro calls out to your boss. Your boss buys Zoro’s words. 

“Well hurry up, I need to get home for dinner.” Your boss says, walking back out of the rink. You blow out a breath, skating towards the exit, Zoro just behind you. 

“Jesus… thanks.” You blow out, heart still in your throat. 

“No worries.” He says just behind you.

You plop down on the bench, leaning to untie your skates. Zoro sits beside you quietly, doing the same. It's a little awkward now, especially after all that oblivious flirting you were doing. This wasn’t something you couldn't see coming.

Just last week you didn’t even like looking at this guy, now you found yourself liking looking at him. A complete turn around. Not entirely unwelcomed though.

When you finally kicked off your skates, you sat up just as Zoro reached over, warm fingers on your chin and turned your face gently towards him and pressed his lips to your own. You gasped, taken off guard, eyes wide. A spark shot through you like nothing you’d ever felt before. His fingers on your chin slid until he was gently cupping your cheek, his other hand coming up and doing the same thing on the other side of your face. He kissed you gently. Slowly your eyes fluttered closed, your hand reaching up and falling short, as you knotted it in the front of his t-shirt, pulling him by it closer to you.

“I really fucking like you.” He mumbles against your lips in between kisses, you kiss him hard at his words. Ghosted over your lips causing a shiver to track down your spine. All the pent up emotions you harbored came spilling out as you somehow ended up in his lap, the moment grew intense, a groan escaping his lips that your lips muffled. His hands found purchase on your ass as he stood, taking you with him, carrying you with one hand to press your back into the acrylic glass around the rink. One of your hands slides around the back of Zoro’s neck, tangling in his hair. Zoro makes a sound you didn’t think was possible for him to make, something that had your stomach bottoming out and your fingers barely tugging at his hair, a soft sort of whimper escaping his lips. His kisses then turn hungry, almost feverish. He’s burying his lips in yours, forgetting to breathe, his hands tightening around you, completely lost in the moment. Someone clears their throat, startling you both as Zoro lets you down. Your boss stands there, hands on his hips, a look of embarrassment on his face. 

“Sir, I was helping him.” “She was helping me.” Zoro and you speak at the same time. Your boss raises his head, shaking his head as you nod your head in understanding leaving with your boss. 

You were reprimanded but ultimately he let you keep your job. Yay. It was your first infraction and he said to keep it professional which you agreed with and apologized vehemently. You probably apologized hundreds of times in a five minute conversation. Your boss asked not to talk about it again and you were completely fine with that. You gathered up your stuff and pushed out into the cold winter night. The cold hitting your warm cheeks and cooling you off. You didn’t have a moment alone to think about what had just transpired. 

“Y/n…” Zoro called out as you crossed the parking lot. He waved as you blushed. “I’m so sorry… you didn’t get fired did you?”

“No... What was that?” You asked as you got closer.

“What?”

“Why’d you kiss me? I-- I sort of thought you hated me.” You confront.

“What? I don’t-- I don’t hate you.” Zoro shakes his head. 

“You sure? I mean-- you were an asshole to me that one time… saying I needed to learn to take care of myself and that stupid fucking nickname? Rink girl? All your teammates call me that by the way.” You say, all of it sort of falling out like word vomit. Zoro raises his chin slightly, looking down at you. 

“They call you that?” He asks, his voice level as you sigh.

“Yes! They do!”

“I’ll fix that.” He promises as you stare at him. This whole night was just strange. 

“Why’d you kiss me?” You ask again. Zoro’s eyes soften.

“I told you already.” He says as you shake your head. 

“You didn’t tell me anything? We barely talked before today.”

“I said I like you. I said I really fucking like you.” He reiterated. You remember him saying that. The heat and warmth spread like a wildfire after hearing it again.

“Why?” You ask as Zoro sort of cocks his head.

“Why?” He echoes as you raise your brows, nodding your head imploring for an answer. “Because you're pretty. You’re funny and I like the way you ignored me all the time.” He admits as you laugh despite yourself.

“What? Y-you like that I ignore you?”

“I did. I like this way better.” He motions to you and him talking. You raise your head.

“Okay…” You say skeptically, you find your mind trailing back to the kiss and it brings a blush to your cheek. You clear your throat. “How long?”

“Hmm?”

“How long have you liked me?” Zoro looks like he’s thinking about it for a moment. 

“The first day I met you probably.” He says nonchalantly. You laugh.

“Yeah… sure.” You roll your eyes. He steps closer to you.

“I mean it. You introduced yourself and said I had green hair, not that you liked it, you just said I had it.” You remembered that, your lips part in surprise because he remembered it too.

“It’s uncommon.” You say and Zoro smiles warmly down at you. 

“Still don’t know if you like it or not.” He grins as your eyes bounce to it. 

“I like it.” You say and see a soft blush form on Zoro’s cheeks. “Why were you such an asshole to me that day?”

“I-- am sorry about that. I was more angry with my teammates for annoying you. I wanted you to know that you could speak up for yourself, that you could just tell them to shut up but-- I’m sorry.”

“And Rink girl?”

“Poor attempt at flirting…” He says. You start laughing, shaking your head.

“The poorest attempt. But… your words did make me speak up for myself more, so…” You relent. Zoro smiles softly. You can’t help it, you pull him against your lips. That smile was too much. You needed it pressed against your lips. His hands slid around your hips.

“Christ, Y/n… go home!” Your boss grumbles as you startle, Zoro’s hands stay planted on you as you shoot an apologetic look at you boss. 

“Sorry, sir.” You say as he waves you off, slipping into his car and driving away. You start laughing, your hand coming up to cover your mouth.

“You are going to get me fired.” You grumble as Zoro presses his mouth to yours again as though he couldn’t wait another damn second, walking you back until your back is pressed against his car. He lifts you with ease, setting you on the hood as the car’s alarm sets off. 

“Fucking hell!” Zoro hissed, fumbling for his keys. You dissolved into laughter.

Fandom Friday, 08/23: Fanfiction

Hello again, everyone...and welcome to another installment of Fandom Friday, the two-post series where I go off to find new and interesting fanworks that might need a bit more visibility.

Before I forget, there are just two little reminders I'd like to drop here:

First, in order to have as many examples I can gather from as many facets of the fandom I can draw from and still fit the ten-link limit...I've made the executive decision to do this every two weeks, even if just to give you all as complete an experience as I can.

And second, if there's anybody not on the tag list who ends up liking this series of posts two times in a row...well, I might be tagging you in a few questionnaire posts later this weekend, as I'll be double-checking people's interests in pursuing stuff like this, or not.

Anyways...before I ramble on or delay any further, here are my fanfiction picks of the week!

THE CLONE WARS

THE MANDALORIAN

The Mandalorian Fanfiction--By @deadlynavigation:

The Mandalorian Fanfiction--By @m-musings:

In conclusion, as part of my mission to poke around the Star Wars fandom and, on Friday every two weeks, highlight those writers who might otherwise go unnoticed…I hope you will check out the links I have included for yourselves and like, comment on, and reblog them, as well as also giving the writers a few more followers to their Tumblr pages.

Please also like and reblog this latest installment so that these links can be spread around to as many other fans as possible, just in case not all of them can tune in at the same time.

An additional thank you goes to @djarrex for making the divider I used earlier in this post, but still want to give credit for.

And finally, so that I do not forget…thank you to my friends, thank you to this fandom, good morning, and good luck.

[aquaburst3]

Okay, since I haven't seen many posts up yet about this, not that I blame anyone since others are probably at school and work rn, I want make a post summarizing what happened so far in the latest event on the JP server.

Disclaimers:

All of this info came from LuluBelle over on my Discord server, so all the credit for gathering this up goes to them.

Also, I don't know how to speak or read Japanese nor do I have the JP version of the app, making me unable to verify this. Take this all with a huge mountain of salt.

Like I said in my other post, I'm calling him Honest Fellow, since that sounds less awkward and I think it'll be localized to that anyway.

JP Event Spoilers Below

The arc starts with Honest Fellow and Giddel selling the themepark to some faceless NPCs. After some convincing, they enter the park. Honest Fellow evil laughs.

We cut to a basketball game between RSA and NRC. NRC lose yet again. NRC fight amongst themselves, and the teachers break it up.

After the game, Floyd, Ace, Yuu and Grim, wallowing in their frustration at NRC's loss to RSA, decided to go Craneport to get some snacks. There they find Jade and Jack on the way.Jack was there to get some new threads while Jade was there by sheer coincidence.

Kalim and Ortho arrive. They were in a bookstore, because Kalim was searching for books concerning magic potions, since he's struggling with those and Sam's shop was closed. (I have no idea why Jamil wasn't there either, because him leaving Kalim unattended seems kinda ooc.)

Honest Fellow along with his brother swoop in, making their sales pitch. Grim wonders about what Playful Land is exactly. Ace explains that it's a mysterious amusement park that nobody knows where it is. Honest Fellow says that's correct.

Honest Fellow gives the group tickets to the park. When Kalim says they'll go the next weekend, Honest Fellow chimes in, saying, "Oh, no, no! You can only use it until tomorrow!" They both fuck off into the night.

When the group gets back, they tell Riddle and Jamil about the tickets. They're both like, "Hell no!" Riddle shoots it down because skipping classes is unforgivable. (Ace was originally gonna invite Deuce, but he tattled on him to Riddle, since he found the whole thing suspicious. Honestly, good on him.) Jamil finds it suspicious and puts his foot down, telling Kalim that he forbids him from ever going.

Jack tells Leona, who is all like, "Nah, this is kinda fishy." Jack decides that he has to go because he promised Honest Fellow he would, and he doesn't want to break it.

Floyd tells Azul. He says, "Nope, I'm not coming. It's sus, and I don't wanna owe anybody anything!" They tweels laugh, saying that they want to check it out BECAUSE it's shady.

Ortho tells his brother. He shoots it down, since he doesn't like crowds. Ortho then confides in Vil thanks to them being in the same club.

Early the morning, before the sun rises, the group gathers to sneak to the harbour in town. Kalim managed to get the rest of the Light Music Club to come along, because they saw just how sad Kalim seemed and decided to tag along to comfort him. Vil was convinced to come along by Ortho. One, he wants to see what's the big deal about this park. Two, he's also suspicious, and, as a dorm leader, he wants to oversee all of his juniors and make sure they're all okay. Trey followed after Ace because Deuce asked him for his help and had the feeling that Ace would be stubborn enough to rebel and sneak out even though Riddle said no. Leona followed after Jack because he felt like he had to be the responsible one for once and was genuinely concerned about Jack's well being.

Honest Fellow arrives. He is just so dramatic. Half of them go, "Fucking really? Why did any of our juniors trust this guy? He's as sus as a FNAF animatronic!" (Not in those words, obliviously, but along that same idea.)

Honest Fellow shows them around the park. Which looks like this...

The park is more like those travelling summer fairs where it goes from town to town instead of staying in one place like Universal Studios, Knotts Berry Farm or any of the Disney Parks. The boys can kick back and indulge in their darkest desires.

The third years still feel that this whole thing is kinda sus. Since Grim and some of the others head straight to the entry gate, they reluctantly go along with it to watch over their juniors. Grim face plants into the gate, because he didn't show a ticket. Ace shows his ticket. Ace, Grim and Yuu's clothes get magically altered to resemble the ones on the card. The same thing happened to everyone else.

After everyone's gotten inside the amusement park, we have a foreboding speech from Honest Fellow and Giddel about how the young generation are easily skeptical, but can still be fooled by the promises of a fun play park. Honest Fellow mentions how he and Giddel should accommodate their visitors… for it will be the "last'' fun memory that they'd have. Cue End of Part 1.

Some other minor side things...

It's confirmed. Honest Fellow and Giddel are brothers.

Honest Fellow is a mage, but is less magically inclined compared to the NRC boys. Giddel is a non-mage.

Lulu, aka the same person from my Discord server, suspects the themepark itself might be a magic tool of some kind. Considering how it operated in the movie and novel along with fan theories about them, I'm inclined to believe them.

We also finally got a description of what Yuu is actually wearing during this event. (Honestly, it's about fucking time. Because one gripe I always had with these events is that we never get even a small description of what Yuu is wearing, which makes it harder to imagine what's going on in my head.) Basically, they are wearing the same style jacket as Leona, but with the same colours as Lilia's costume. Do with that information as you will Malleus/Yuu shippers.

Honest Fellow has a Honest John pendant on his hat.

More of a personal gripe, but I'm not sure what to make of Honest Fellow as a character yet. Right now, he seems like the mastermind behind this whole operation, but that doesn't make sense. In the movie, Honest John wasn't on board with the Pleasure Island shit, and only went along with it thanks to the Coachman threatening him and Gideon's lives. Wouldn't it be far more fitting for him to be a lacky of another villain and being forced to go along with it out of fear of having the same thing happen to him and his brother? And if that was the case, that would also better align him thematically with Ortho, who's brother is the same way towards him. But I'm reserving my judgements on his character until the event is over.

Playful Land gives me major Joy Joy Land vibes.

I find the idea of Leona, Trey and Vil going there, because they are worried about their juniors adorable. They are really tapping into their big brother instincts, even if I doubt Vil and Leona would ever admit it out loud.

Though, one plot hole with this whole thing is why didn't Jamil, Trey and Deuce rip up the tickets if they were that concerned about the others going to the park? Granted, the tickets could be enchanted so that they're impossible to destroy, but I never heard if that's the case yet. Idk, it's a nitpick, but it's still something that annoys me a bit as a writer myself.

AF MidWeek Round-up!

This is just a simple post compiling all of my attacks so far along with some artists notes! Mostly because I found myself much more active this year than last year (Minus these few couple days due to some appointments). I'll be tagging everyone and linking to other socials so you can see these lovely folks. Of course if you want to attack me, I'm ready to fight! Without further ado, here's all the attacks so far :>

@cosmicdenro @stellarknightz - Weekend Date The name of the game for these first few attacks was to get everyone who I was supposed to last year but ran out of time ^^;;. I decided upon Jesse's Zircon over Jesse the character (one in my bookmarks) b/c it seemed like Turquoise Zircon was less drawn this year but was his icon on AF. So easy pick from me :> (Btw doing Sodalite's stripes and copying Zircon's shape language was really fun!!)

@/clawothy (Twitter) - Chill Cat Another attack from last years bookmarks! It was definitely a soft but enjoyable opening into drawing furries since Claw's so human shaped. It was fun drawing his tail and patterns :>. This is just a nice character design all around.

@twidaisi - Speedy Service Twi was also one from my bookmarks, but also a doorway down an ArtFight rabbit hole. Which will become apparent in the next two pieces. For this one, I had a pretty clear pose in mind so I placed it onto O.R.B.I and went from there!! His design is so neat and he seems so cool! The pose was also pretty fun to do as well, just an overall fun art piece (Also this one got a revenge!!! I still really really love thank you so much!!!!!)

@scratchgeist - Escapism Ho! This was a doozy! Twi had Scratch's profile linked so I ended up hitting him with an attack too. Drawing Scratch's mane turned out to be a pleasant experience despite me originally fearing it. This scene idea also came from a prompt of Scratch going outside. I ended up putting Polish on this because all those scratchy "ink like" lines I actually did manually (take a fuzzy brush and then go over it using a sketchbook eraser). It was nice dipping my toes into BatIM again and trying out more animal feature.

@/stylin.art Instagram @/crypticc0rpse Instagram - Pirates in arms One of those two people were linked on Scratch's profile and the person linked also linked to the other person. But I realized that both Stylin and Crypt had some shared characters. So this ended my little rabbit hole of people by attacking these two lovely fellows at the same time. This little crossing swords idea took me a nice minute to come up with but I liked how it ended up anyway. I really did like drawing James together like this (probably helps that I really like pirates in general). Also yes I know her hand is fucked up I noticed way to late to fix it.

@smoresthehalloweenqueen - Listen to the waves Once I finished up with that I moved onto the next bookmark, which was Smores! Originally I was gonna draw Brutus but then I was like "I like his sona it looks like fun!" So I drew them listening to music because why not :>. I struggled on the arms initially but it came out real clean and nice. Honestly might be my best work so far! (Fun fact, I color picked the waves + background from Seafoam's icon.)

@skittisketch - I got it! Mr. Sascachawean himself! I referenced this pose form the classic Objection point because I thought it would fit his personality. This was also a little bit of a test with a style I had only done in sketches (Basically my human style but omitting a neck which somehow shaves off a lot of time). This was a super fun pose to do with a pretty nice background! (Once again, fucked up hand I know I noticed too late again)

@justpainterrobot - Rare Nightly Sight I had this really really clear picture of what I thought up for this attack and I'm happy that I was able to make it a reality. I put the polish tag on this one because I almost got super super detailed of what the junk was below her (Stuff coming down from Elysium n all that) but due to a lack of references I just went with typical metal and wood. Fun fact, the night sky in the background is based on the one from Deponia itself (The first game's scenes with the professor at night). I think this rewrite of Toni was really cool from what I could find about her. Overall a labor of love type of attack.

@coelpts @swan-swanno - Boss Battle I thought to myself "Hm, I see Coelpts around a lot, lets hit him with an attack." and it turns out Ciel's gay married to Swanno's charater Mikhail, who was the last one in my bookmarks from last year. So another double attack for this one! It was a struggle starting this one mostly because I was debating whether or not to draw Ciel's Lord outfit but I ended up doing so because why not :>. It was a fun experience copying Swanno's more angular style, which is a stark departure from my more rounded shapes (As you can see here). Has a nice venture doing the lighting as well, overall a good experience.

@tailsylennon - Sweet Treats Mitchell showed off Tasily's proflie one day and I saw their sona and was I was like "Lemme draw it!" and did! I ended up following another prompt by her because it was their birthday! (By the time I started on this it was 8 pm and I freaked tf out and got to work). Her sona was really cool and I really loved drawing them. Fun fact, each of the set pieces references the Hallows Souls trio. The chair is decorated after Terra, Markus is the table, and Whistle pallet is used for the tea set :>. It was just a pleasant and cozy attack to make overall.

@ceaseless-enemy - Congratulations!!!! I've actually known about Voila for quite awhile now and thought his design n theaming is quite neat! I actually based the pose off of Ai from Oshi No Ko (I think one of her key arts before the anime released, ifykyk). But I skillfully cut out the legs because I can't draw digitigrade legs... Hooray... Otherwise it was quite nice to work on this attack in particular, especially the eyes and the hair :>.

@killbent - Getting Ready This is another one I had a real clear idea of prior to doing this, specifically because Killbent gave a prompt to give Mr Fairchime pink hair, so i thought a "pre-show" set up would look nice :>. The lighting was another new venture for me, because I usually do cool/night time like lighting but I think it turned out nicely for Fairchime. It was also fun doing the accessories and stuff on the vanity as well. Fun Fact, it's a bit hard to see through the watermark + lighting but the face paint and pallet both have the colors of his make up! Overall a pleasant and warm attack for this year.

And that's all of them so far! I picked up some new bookmarks + I gotta get Twi back for drawing Compact!! So those will probably be compiled by the end of AF so about, early August-ish if I keep up the pace. Anyway, thank you so much for reading and gracing me with the opportunity to draw all of these amazing characters!

Until next time!

Oooookay. So... quick, little update.

(It's a lie, it's never quick or little, heh.)

I'm working on the first interactive story and I'm about 20% through the writing work and things are about to pick up.

The story itself isn't all that noteworthy and a secret for now, in case I'm going to scrap the idea and go with a different one. (it do be like that sometimes)

I'm going to give a rough estimate of a couple weeks until I'm going to release it. Unless I start obsessing over it, then maybe less but don't bet on it.

It's very barebones in terms of appearance and function... as in... You can currently choose your own name and what genitals you have, the rest is predetermined by the answers you click on.

The idea for now is for the reader to be a sub and have a choice between at least two (male) partners (aka for now it's written that you can have either one or both if you play your cards right). Maybe I'll do dom later if people are interested? Unsure yet.

I'm thinking of implementing a sort of "Affection points" system that determines your ending in a more subtle way, just like some visual novels have. I'm an idiot when it comes to coding though, I only learned a bit of HTML for a game once because it let you add custom descriptions, lol. I figured the very basics of it out but there's still some work to be done, not to mention it would require me to put a value on everything.

Anyways, here's where the poll comes in. I know a lot of you just click on an answer without reading the rest, I see you. I'm like that too, so I'm sneakily going to hide it under the read more section so I get a few more organic answers.

* AP = Affection Points (the system I was talking about above)

I have a feeling I can guess the answer but I am the queen of somewhat unnecessary polls, at least in my own mind, so why not?

I also promise I'll write some more smut soon, just currently busy with my job and the project (and also being a 'functional' adult; rip).

Last bit of text, I promise but I'm going to dedicate a new tag to this, and I'm calling it #idiotupdates for those peeps that care enough. (#idiotrambles for all the other stuff btw)

Have a nice weekend, my lovely monsterfuckers! I shall soon return with an ask request that I did not procrastinate on and you cannot prove anything.

💕

WIP Wednesday

Tagged by @spaceprincessem @exhuastedpigeon @spotsandsocks @devirnis @lover-of-mine @sibylsleaves @hoodie-buck @loserdiaz @daffi-990 and @ladydorian05 Thank you all so much! I look forward to all your fics!

Alright, so yesterday I asked basically for permission to work on my Halloween fics instead of NFL Buck and many of you said to do it. So just for a short time, I will be pausing on NFL Buck. I promise it is still being worked on a bit, but most of my concentration will be on my Halloween fics, which I really hope I can actually get done before Halloween.

Also, I cannot promise that I will be posting much more for tag games this weekend. My daughter is having minor surgery on Friday that we are going out of town for (hospital where I am was a year out), so I will be making most of the weekend taking care of her. I will try my very best to post something, but no promises.

Now that I've caught ya'll up, I know I mentioned a possible werewolf buddie fic. Well that is not this today. Instead I am bringing back Jigsaw Buck, my serial killer fic based off the Saw films. Previous post can be found here.

Warning below the cut. Description of grotesque death and also Devon's suicide. ENJOY!

Pretending to care, to have those emotions that make him approachable and later ignored, is hard work. Buck slipped just a little once.  After losing Devon on the roller coaster.  Of course, Buck wanted him to fight for his life, to see how much better it could be after the game was won, but in end, it wasn’t enough. And that was on Devon. But his old fire captain somehow took his quick acceptance as a form of shock and sent him to department therapy. Buck hated therapists. They were of the few who had the power to peer past the layers, rip off the masks, and see the twisted bloody hunk of flesh that resembled what remained of his dead brother-in-law. Cold with no emotion to be found; just the void that demands the retribution of others. Thankfully (and somewhat unfortunately), Dr. Wells was too distracted by the shiny layer that is firefighter Buckley to actually do her job.  Sadly, she abused the small amount of power she held in her delicate, manicured hands and tried to sexually exploit the man she was supposed to help. When Buck dug around a bit and found her many other victims, well it was a good thing Dr. Wells had such a precise schedule. It was almost too easy grabbing her in the blind spot of her office’s cameras. Too bad the therapist spent most of her given time, screaming that she did no wrong. That those she exploited wanted what she forced upon them, that she didn’t abuse the power she held. And when those last few precious second ticked away, Buck stepped into the room, saddened by her reluctance to take the second chance, learn her lesson. “Game over.” He told her bluntly then turned away, unable to witness his masterful contraption drill into her skull. The whirring tool flung ringlets of bone, blood, hair, and brain matter across the room and onto the floor. The key to her freedom, sat unused in a box just a mere two feet away. The price…a single hand, relinquishing the power she held in it and a tool of her neglect.

Dr. Wells isn't the first or the last of Buck's victims. Spoiler: Eddie will be a subject to Buck's games as well. Mwhaha.

A few haphazard post-MSQ thoughts for Dawntrail

okay first of all fuck Zoraal Ja loved your trial

Dawntrail in general makes me want to go back and actually finish FFIX, and part of that is also to actually find out more about Kuja's deal. I was in vc with my static over DT ending and my co-tank pointed out Zoraal Ja's whole arc is a dead wringer for Kuja. Which makes sense based on the wiki summary I found. I just also dreaded the possibility of people comparing him more to Zenos, which thankfully, I haven't actually seen much of. But then I'm not on Twitter, and only just started exploring the tags, so maybe that take is out there. Sorry but as a dedicated Zenos Fucker I still don't see it XD not every violent man with daddy issues is a Zenos.

Speaking of daddies, it's a genuine accomplishment for Dawntrail to bring us both the BEST and WORST dads in the game. Congrats Gaius your seat at the bottom has been taken, but Man did Zoraal have to earn it.

Just one little issue. WHO IS GULOOL JA'S MOM??

I cannot believe this wasn't even at least questioned at any point, they put more words towards reasoning how he must be Zoraal's kid cause of his coloring but didn't question who his mother could be? Especially with Sphene the LITERAL QUEEN right there looking AWKWARD AS HELL when he's brought up.

My guess is this will be explored in the patches, but good GOD you thought FFXIV was shitty with its female characters, Gulool's mom wasn't even a character! Legit negative for me and any further storyline is just going to make me question why it wasn't relevant earlier.

However to shift tracks to GOOD female characters, I freakin' love Wuk Lamat! I love her design her facial expressions her voice good god her VOICE, I love her goals and how she tries to relate to her enemies but will not hold back but also won't sacrifice others to get what she wants.

I know she's every shonen protagonist rolled into an orange tabby, and that's great! They didn't stumble once with her as far as I'm concerned.

I'm probably gonna have to devote a whole other post to thoughts about Sphene and the Twelfth(?) reflection's fate. I appreciate that the stakes have been simultaneously scaled back but also shifted, I guess sideways would be the best description?

I find it interesting that the main threat is very similar to in Endwalker-that of moving on from dead end ways of living. But while Endwalker was finding a reason to go on living, Dawntrail is about finding peace with death. Cause you need both to live a happy life, and to have a society that doesn't eat itself, or everything around it.

Also a quick comment on msq-appropriate jobs; obviously any job is great, but I feel really good about sticking with both Dark Knight and Viper throughout. Viper in particular, for having both its roots in the main setting, and its capstone ability Reawaken has you call upon the memories of your hunter forbears, a kind of healthier version of the regulators' soul consumption ability. And Dark Knight is just my WoL's canon job, but also her self-styled title comes from DRK's quest title The Boundless Dark. So I HAD to finish the expansion as The Boundless Queen standing against The Queen Eternal.

Unfortunately, the Neo-Ishgardian Top didn't get the texture upgrade, so it clashes a bit too much. I'm gonna have to work out a good glam, but am using the Fallen set plus pieces of the Neo Kingdom Fending set as I get them.

Viper on the other hand, is perfect as it is and I love it. I don't even have to finish the role quests except for completeness. Look at the worn folds in the leather!

Anyway those are my current thoughts, I've only since unlocked Expert roulette and will start the normal raids later tonight, and then level crafters this weekend. Time to do the mmo bit!

Edit: Also the raid series is gonna be perfect for Alice. "Time to honor the memory of your queen! With Bloodsport! Let's go Zenos!" *Shinryu minion squealing sounds*

*brennan lee mulligan voice* heeeeeeeelllllllllllllloooooooOOOOOOOOO one and all and welcome back for another thrilling episode of...whatever this is. thank you for being here.

It's 2024! Say hi, intrepid heroes!

reading recently finished:

-orwell's roses by rebecca solnit (audio) - glad I listened, ultimately very gratifying - history, criticism, extremely lush garden-filled prose and love for growing things - nona the ninth by tamsyn muir - felt so much about [redacted] it made me cry. i can unblock ALL THE TAGS NOW - the blue sword by robin mckinley (audio) - catching up on old school fantasy continues -when the angels left the old country by sacha lamb (audio) - beautiful. not not in conversation with good omens but doing something different.

recently begun: -the ministry of the future by kim stanley robinson - can't decide if it's a scifi novel or a policy brief about ways to combat climate change- reading on my mom's recommendation -babel: an arcane history by r.f.kuang - withholding judgment, but i know you probably want me to hate it and so far i don't, really! to my own surprise -the shadow of the wind by carlos ruiz zafrón (audio) - spooky, post-modern but incredibly good at sounding like it is of the time it depicts. many thoughts on the audio book narrator's accent work, most favorable -one corpse too many by ellis peters. wild that i have only just begun reading the cadfael mysteries

listening last week was about discovering and putting on continuous loop the group trousdale on the recommendation of @m2pixie (!) and other trusted friends; the energy, the harmonies! they fill a girl group void i didn't realize i had, it feels like the best kind of throwback, like old chicks or something, some desperately needed bops. exhibit a: bad blood.

today my daylist introduced me to joy oladokun and i'm so glad it did. love her vibe, love this cover art. had to take a picture of my desk, the visuals were so satisfying.

watching the newest series of netflix's lupin!! so far i'm really, really enjoying where this season has been spending most of its time-- the new characters, the new heists, the new stakes. especially fun to watch with friends where we can all shout about the mrs doubtfire of it all, the betrayals, the misdirection, the 'he can't keep getting away with this!.' the original lupin series will always bring back memories of watching it in early lockdown; i'm glad that there's this now to think about and remember instead.

playing hollow knight hollow knight hollow kniiiiiiight. bought it a few months ago when it was on sale, after hanging out and watching @dimir-charmer stream for us a bit, but playing it yourself is a different game. i'm having a blast. it's becoming a problem. i'm having to be so so good and mature in how much i let myself just get suckered in to a full day spent in my little buggy maze adventures. the temptation to keep going until i've made a meaningful advancement of some kind (today: got the longer nail! last time: beat hornet! saved zote the mighty, got the baldur shell charm, and beat the gruz mother!) is very, very real. have also gotten around this by listening to lots of lo-fi hollow knight beats to relax and study to while being 'productive.'

(found this screenshot online, and holy extra health batman)

making pancakes. lots and lots of weekend pancakes. sent a bunch of mail since new year's, and have some new arts and crafts (charcoal pencils!! those little paper cone blender guys! better paper) to fuck around with next time i want to get ~artistic. watch this space.

working on teaching is so all-consuming. it's great, i love it. the course (maps class! if you see that tag, this is that) is going well, i think! first three lectures down. the students i've gotten to know i really like, the material has yet to get old (see one - do one - teach one is so real. i understand this class now, finally, in a way i don't think i did just being the TA, even after three times). it takes so much longer to just copy-paste-change color and font on slides than it should! i've regularly been getting four-five hours of sleep on monday nights before teaching on tuesdays, but it has meant that i don't have the brain space to be self-conscious while i'm 'on', i just. go. having fun selecting teaching 'fits, having (less) fun handling all the students who joined in the second or third week and need help with catching up, but it's not their fault there was a waiting list and lots of turnover.

(petrus roselli - portolan chart of the mediterranean, 1466)

non-teaching: - student letter of recommendation for dental school (DONE) - conference panel proposal (due 1/31) -submit revised conference paper for that prize (due 1/30) -send draft of grant application to A for her to be able to write a letter of recommendation (due IMMEDIATELY WHY ARE YOU ON TUMBLR) (you have until 2/15 to fix it but she needs the draft!) -chapter 3 edits (lmao) -read for that other course you're meant to be the TA for (oops) - give i. feedback on her thing (tonight) -RAship hours (c'mon these are actually paid work, please do them)

Here's some ideas for Heroes Week!

And here's the link to the idea list I did. You can also use these any future fics (or drawings).

Hikage leads his fellow vestiges (except they're alive here) on a weekend camping trip. We can only imagine the chaos

In honor of Third's name reveal he has to be the victim of some AU where the original work stars a guy named Bruce. Or put into the outfit of a guy named Bruce.

All For One gets turned into a rabbit and Yoichi finds him, thinks he's an ordinary rabbit, and takes him home to where he lives with Second. He then suffers having to watch his brother live a happy romantic life with coral head. Naturally, he tries to communicate who he really is to Yoichi, who remains oblivious. Unfortunately, Second picks it up instead. Shenanigans ensue.

The same AFO hates his brother's boyfriend(s) stuff, blah blah blah, except... AFO isn't Yoichi's brother.

It's En's birthday and nobody has any idea what to get him. They all scramble to get a good gift and learn a lot about him on the way.

AFO is the owner of Cat Yoichi. He's one of those super annoying rich cat owners who brags about their purebred cat and how he only gives him *Expensive food brand that's actually really good which makes him even more annoying* and stuff like that. Cat Yoichi is very much an indoors cat, but only because AFO wants him to be. If he had his way, he'd be outside exploring all day. Meanwhile, Second and Third are alley cats starving for food. They see Yoichi living a good life and scheme to try and get in.

Some sort of farming game AU. I say Animal Crossing, but that's only because it's the only farming game I have played. Hikage enjoys his peaceful life maintaining his vegetable garden, only for a ridiculously loud neighbor (Banjo) to choose to put his house right next to his. And for added fun, Toshinori is the mayor of One for All Isle

Nana competes in a cooking competition.

You know all those jokes about men figuring out they're going to have a kid because they start making dad jokes and stuff? Okay, now imagine that All Might starts doing that after he meets Midoriya... And AFO notices the sudden dad behavior.

AFO messes up while cutting his brother's hair and Yoichi has too try and hide it.

Genderbend! I put this on the last one, but I haven't seen a lot of genderbent 4-7 so I'm putting it here too.

According to the wiki, Banjo shaved his head. What circumstances would lead up to that?

It's almost Christmas which means it's time for the MISTLETOE TRAP TROPE!

Yoichi sees what a great match Inko would be for the Eighth and ropes everyone else into helping them get together. To make up for her being unfortunate enough to marry his brother.

Something for the Vault Breakers ship! Yoichi is losing his mind trying to get the two together, because no matter what, they seem to think any romance-like actions come from friendship. "You two SHOWER together?" "Well yeah, we're saving money." "You KISS each other?!" "Of course, we do, we're best friends."

Referring back to a certain birthday post I once made, Hikage is a librarian in a small village who fights back when an evil CEO tries to destroy the forest the village is built on.

Users 1-8 are turned into animals (you pick which) and Izuku is forced to take care of them.

There has to be a classic trope in here: Yoichi is struggling to make ends meet as he tries to achieve his dream of becoming a manga writer. There's no way he's going to his brother, but he needs money and fast. He decides to get a second job at the coffee shop next door to his apartment, and ends up serving some very interesting people. Including a mysterious (and handsome) spiky-haired man.

To refer to a meme I once made, En, Banjo, and Hikage babysit little Izuku.

Villain Second and Third.

I forgot to put this on the last one, but please tag me if you do use any of these. I want to see it!

How would the hashira react to a clingy child reader

Giyuu

you’re a child so he doesn’t think much of you being clingy

Most times he just sort of picks you up and holds you in silence

If you or someone else looks closely there’s always a glimpse of happiness in his eyes when he does this

This act of automatically picking you up, once got him “caught” in-front of the other hashira and they all just stared at him in a weird sense of shock

Mitsuri

She thinks this is adorable

She absolutely does your hair, short or long it doesn’t matter

She lets you swing off her arm (like her dad did for her)

If you’re a constantly clingy child she takes you out to eat most nights she has off, and loves to try new things with you

Also she holds you a lot, like if she could she would hold you forever

Tengen

He thinks it’s cute that you follow in his every footstep, literally sometimes

Like sometimes when he does his “flashy” pose you stand behind him copying his different movements

He likes to pick you up and throw you up on his shoulder especially in the entertainment district (because no kidnapping today thank you) if anyone asks why he carries you that way, he says “because it’s the flashiest way obviously.”

If he happens to be busy he hands you to his wives and they play with you until you all pass out in a cuddle pile, when he finds you all like this he quickly takes a picture ( I don’t care if there weren’t mobile phones/cameras if it bothers you it would be a mental picture) and then lays down with all of you

Obanai

Since you’re a child fine “but only because Mitsuri and Kaburamaru like you” is his excuse

He will join if Mitsuri or you ask him specifically to play or do something

He’ll never admit it but he loves these moments with you

Sometimes on weekends he has off he takes you to a really tall tree, climbs it with you, and just sits there holding you. Both of you almost wish those moments would last forever

Shinobu

You’re a child so she thinks it’s really sweet and doesn’t mind you tugging on her at all

If you get hurt she personally helps you and gives you a treat or prize at the end

She likes to go out and play with you in the butterfly gardens making flower crowns and such with kanao

One day she came home and gave you a matching butterfly hair clip and you’ve worn it ever since

Murichiro

He hates your constant tugging at his sleeves and hair at first

But he soon realizes the longer he ignores you, the worse that the tugging gets and he eventually caves in

In his free time he likes to play games, and every time you have to re-teach him your favorite patty cake game even if he remembers it’s become a tradition

He also like to play tag and hide-and-go-seek, sometimes he’s so good at hiding you don’t find him for a week

Whenever he comes back from long missions he brings you back hair pins or other trinkets in two or more colors since he can’t remember your favorite color (at least he tries)

Sanemi

Since you’re a child he doesn’t completely mind, he wishes you would stop following him everywhere though

He told you to stop once, but he unconsciously yelled and you started crying so he gave up

He picks you up and carries you around but never in front of anyone especially the other hashira (come on he has an ego to protect)

You like to ask him how he got certain scars and he tells the story on any you point out, even if he obviously exaggerates the story you still love hearing about all his adventures

Gyomei

He doesn’t mind you at all he finds you adorable even if he can’t see you

With how tall he is you love climbing on his shoulders and looking around

You pretty much try and stick by his side 24/7 like if he’s alone for more than five minutes people should start to worry

When he’s on missions and you’re forced to stay convince other people to make one of his favorite foods every time without fail

Rengoku

He adores the fact that you follow him around like a lost puppy

He loves to carry you around in a variety of different ways, honestly you might never have to walk again if it weren’t for his missions

One time before he left you begged him to stay (obviously he couldn’t) but he brought you back a puppy/kitten to make up for it (you totally named it donut)

He often plays games with you and Senjuro, one time you scared them by going inside to get a snack and forgot you were playing outside with them

Anytime he’s out you collect little flower bouquets to give him when he gets back

[ohmeadows]

ooh for the ask game: 5 and 12 (for your ruanliu fic? i just love this fic so damn much, i need to know everything about it)

What fic surprised you with how much interaction it got this past year?

unsurprisingly, i was not at all prepared for the amount of interaction you and me are a twisted fantasy got, for better or worse. i wrote it for two people in about 48hrs and didn't think much else of it at the time. the tag enemies to milkies, added as a silly little joke, took on a life of its own for a while there.

(apparently i also wrote most of it while in the university library? just right there in public? ok.)

i got a lot of nice dms, some really icky ones, some people behaved really weirdly around me for quite some time, it wasn't the best introduction to a fandom but i went thru it and now i'm just writing what interests me. i haven't re-read it once since i posted it, so readers probably know it better than i do by now.

What inspired the dew of dying stars?

lots of little things, amongst them a throwaway thought at the end of september of "two frosty women mmm kiss". that was it. and then i wanted to know, well, how could i make that work? under what circumstances could their paths cross? it wasn't as hard as i thought it'd be. ruan mei's writing in simuni was honestly stellar, precise and interesting: did you know she has a manual for dealing with people? that was probably the first hook: what would jingliu had given to have a manual for how to connect with and live with others? with baiheng?

a common theory before ruan mei's full lore was revealed was that she was from the xianzhou cangcheng due to her association with plum blossoms and xianzhou-like style; and though her lore hints at another planet I still like to think she at the very least spent some formative time there. this also served as an exploration point of shared trauma, what it did to them, what those plum blossoms growing out of jingliu means to them both... though now that we know ruan mei nurtured a planet it'd be interesting to see someone do ruanliu au where ruan mei reveals she nurtured the planet that devoured the cangcheng.

ever since reading jeff vandermeer's 2014 novel Annihilation (and later, watching the alex garland movie version) i have been obsessed with the potential of floral and plant body horror, but struggling to find an outlet for those ideas. instead, i let them fester for years until hsr introduced mara: an entire civilization blessed/cursed with the looming disaster of what awaits them as they grow older. delicious.

during the fall of 2023, some friends were reading a lover's discourse: fragments by barthes and sharing quotes and reflections on the daily, which informed the inclusion of baiheng's presence; I find it nigh impossible to write about jingliu without at least brushing against baiheng and the wound she represents in jingliu's psyche.

these two points served as the strongest sources of inspiration, while for ruan mei, i ended up doing a lot of research into plant biology and systematics, as well as slowly and patiently layering an extrapolation who she was from simuni lore available to us at the time. in the end, i only had to do minimal edits as her lore was revealed, which is honestly a credit to hsr's thorough writing in simuni. i spent a lot of weekends in the library flipping through plant books to gather vocabulary and further extrapolate on it.

NOT WHAT I THOUGHT

I've known, or well known OF Eddie since middle school. He's one year older than me so when my best childhood friend Jeff started hanging out with this scrawny guy with a big smile and a buzz-cut I just kinda tagged along at times.They started a band together with some other guys around the same age. Corroded Coffin...they weren't good but to give them some cred they weren't awful either.

I wasn't friends with Eddie per say, just acquaintances. We'd say hey when passing each other in the hallways.

When high school rolled around Eddie was already attending since he was older. I was shocked seeing him again. Where was the scrawny kid I remembered... The smile was still as big. But gone was the buzz-cut and there was a frizzy mane of hair growing in. He'd gotten taller and the look was different no more sweatpants and t-shirts now it was all jeans, leather jacket and denim west over a shirt bearing his DnD club emblem "Hellfire Club"

Apparently, he'd started that club right at the beginning of his first year. When our year arrived Jeff joined first thing, and that was that I barely saw him any more.They had their own table at lunch, they were deemed "Freaks" and were then automatically outcasts at school. There were also the rumour that they were into some satanic rituals or some other lame shit, all orchestrated by the so called "good guys" at Hawkins High. Meaning the jocks and the cheerleaders...and let me tell you not one of those holier than thou kids were any better than Eddie and his crew...they were even worse. I mean a nerdy game opposed to sex and binge drinking in some abandoned house on the weekends? Yeah...and Hellfire was the ruin of America's youth, laughable.

Anyway, I wasn't really part of any click in school. I just sort of floated on top. I didn't seem to bother anyone with my presence which meant I could basically hang out with whomever I chose that day. Didn't like the jocks and most of the cheerleaders so those hang outs were few and far apart. I did like 2 of the cheerleaders though so I did hang out with them at times, so that's why I was sort of accepted in their ranks. But the guys, oh my god were they were the most unbearable sexist pigs... I hooked up with one of them at a party once, Jesus fucking Christ was I turned off. He expected me to be meek and humble and just take what he gave... that shit ain't me let me tell ya! I rode his ass in anger and then just got off, stood up and left him. I did not get a very good reputation among the jocks after that. I was too bitchy, and no one was "allowed" to do anything but talk to me. Like I'd want that shit again!

I'd still say hey to Eddie when passing, exchange pleasantries if he'd come up to me and Jeff the few times we had a chance to talk. Nothing major, but oh my did his new look do it for me, he was hoooooot! I had a big crush on him all through high school, but seeing as my existence as a neutral force was a little dependent on not being seen with the freaks too often I didn't do anything about it. In hindsight, it was cowardly of me. But that's high school for ya, survival of the fittest and follow the hierarchy.

It seemed Eddie, despite being actually very smart, wasn't great at following the rules or attending class or even taking tests. This resulted in him having to repeat senior year not once but three times. This meant though that I was able to spend some more time with him, to my delight. We had some classes together my senior year, his 2nd try. So there was the odd project we had to work on together seeing as our last names were directly after each other. Mullner and Munson... The second the teacher said the words project and pairs I knew for certain I would be teamed up with Eddie. I didn't mind of course, if it weren't for the fact that he wasn't too keen on actually showing up to do the work every time. But the times he did show up we got along really well. It didn't make my crush go away, lets put it that way. I mean sure he was cocky and kinda in his own head all the time, also he had a bad habit of getting messages and just disappear at random. Turned out he sold pot to make money.

I graduated and left Hawkins High behind me, also Eddie...he'd been left behind another year. Jeff was excited though, he'd also been forced to retake senior year due to illness. He'd missed too much and they couldn't let him graduate. He didn't mind, this meant another year of Hellfire for him.

I started working at the Hideout, this dive out by the highway. The hours sucked, the job was...meh, but the pay was good and I did get to see Jeff and Corroded Coffin play every week. They had a slot on Friday nights at 11. Which meant they mostly played for me and 5 drunks. They didn't suck as bad any more...not to say they had star quality but at least they'd improved from the talent show in 8th grade. The one thing, to me, they had going for them was Eddie's stage presence. God was he sexy up there!

The few times there was an actual crowd a Friday night there would be women flooding the floor below the stage just to try and get his attention, he always gave them what they wanted. This was the one reason I never made any kind of move, I did NOT want to be just another notch in the bedpost of Eddie Munson. I never gave much thought to how my own bedpost looked...or what was left of it. Eddie was probably the only guy I wanted that I hadn't just "taken". This was in my mind because I'd been smitten with him for so long, I would just be heartbroken if he sucked or if he just ignored me after. So I just let the idea of seducing him be just a fantasy for lonely nights.

I'd been occasionally hooking up with Steve "the Hair" Harrington. Not that I fancied him really but he was good with his tongue and his dick was big. A bit too into himself for my liking but what the hell a girl's gotta get her some. This is when I heard something that shook me to the core a little. I was hanging out with Steve and Robin, his amazing sidekick I LOVE Robin! Anyway, one of Steves "kids" as Robin calls them is a hardcore fan of Eddie's. He came in to Family video where Steve and Robin work and he was rambling on about Eddie like he always does, and I listen...like I always do.

"And then Mike said he needed to get a girlfriend since he's the only one in Hellfire still single, and get this HE BLUSHED and mumbled something about he's fine anyway and that the girls he liked never wanted anything to do with him"

What? I mean...he never seemed to have an issue with the girls AND women surrounding them after gigs. I'd seen him leave with more than one at a time on numerous occasions. So he was like me? No feelings, just sex? Of course he was, looking like he did why would you settle down when you could have anyone you wanted for the night. But thinking back on what Dustin said, he must have had feelings for someone at some point? I was intrigued, I'll have to ask Jeff about it. He'd known about my weakness for Eddie since the beginning but he's cool he would never say anything about it.

The thing with Steve ran it's course, we ended up as friends. I wasn't really in to this friends with benefits thing he suggested so I just told him. Either we're friends or we fuck... I really don't want both. It just makes things complicated. It worked in the beginning when we fucked and then on occasion hung out. But then as I grew more and more fond of Robin it became more hang outs and less fucking. He accepted, saying that truth be told I was just a distraction for him so he wouldn't obsess so much about his ex which he still had major feelings for. We hugged it out and I got a new friend. Strangely enough at some point, and I don't really know when or why Eddie started showing up in the click. I couldn't figure out why, I mean I got it when the kids were around, they were all in Hellfire. So he'd give them a ride sometimes, but then he started hanging out with us. I wasn't sure how I felt about it, I mean we still got along well. He was less cocky now, more down to earth. Still a nerd at heart though, and suuuuch a music junkie. Anything and everything he could slap a rock label on he listened to and obsessed about. Right now it was Metallica and their new single Master of Puppets that was his obsession. He excitedly told us he figured out the chords to it now and that he was trying to learn how to play it on his guitar. I was impressed, I liked the song. Those riffs aren't easy. Maybe I should have told him I saw them live back in April?

Time just sort of passes you by in Hawkins, probably because nothing ever happens here. Suddenly it was graduation time. Jeff, Eddie and Pete were having a "HELL-fire is over" party after graduation and Jeff asked me if I wanted to come. There wouldn't be a lot of people. But there'd be "booze, pot, music...and nerds" he laughed as he invited me. I was really supposed to work that night but I hadn't had a night off in some time so I asked Hank, the owner if I could have Friday off to celebrate my best friend graduating. He said yes seeing as it was graduation and things would be slow that night anyway.

Now came the eternal question...what to wear? A party with DnD nerds/rockers and their friends. Not too girly obviously. I rummaged through my wardrobe... I found this short black denim skirt I'd bought for a Halloween look a couple of years ago. I wasn't bad, and I'd put on some weight since then so it fit me a hell of a lot better these days. I would finally have reason to wear my Metallica Damage,Inc Tour shirt. I put it on and I tied it up with a hairband and made a cropped shirt from it. Yeah this will work I thought. Might even impress...someone... Black boots and fishnets, paired with big hair and I was ready to go. I always keep my makeup to a minimal, the trends of today aren't really my style, too much color all at once. Just some black liner, mascara and a subtle lipstick.

I looked in the mirror...would it be too obvious who's attention I wanted to catch? I had decided I would at least TRY to talk to him tonight, see if there was some spark. I was so over pining for this guy now, I wanted to get with him once and for all. Either there'd be something there or I'd just be heartbroken for a while. Better that than this shit I'd been doing for way to many years now.

Steve and Robin were going to the party as well, which to me seemed a strange choice seeing as Steve's ex and also a closer friend than Eddie, was also graduating now. But I got it when they told me Nancy would be joining them later on when her family were done celebrating her. She was "the designated driver" tonight as she was in charge of keeping her little brother Mike and the other kids in line. No one could stop them from coming so her parents made it her mission to keep them out of trouble. She was NOT impressed apparently. Steve said he was going to help her keep them in line, so he's be sober aswell. If I needed a ride home I should just come find him.

"Yeah, if my plans are successful I won't be leaving with you guys anyway" I smiled

"Oh? Do tell" Robin turned around in the front seat

"Nah...might jinx it" I muttered

"She's going for Munson" Steve chuckled "can't you tell by the outfit?" he looked at me in the rear-view mirror and winked at me

"How the fuck?" I said, no one knew about my weakness for Eddie but Jeff and I was sure he hadn't said anything to Steve...he didn't really like Steve.

"Really? I mean... I have eyes sweetheart. No one in their right mind could have missed those long stares you've been giving Ed when he isn't looking. Like...c'mon. Been like this a while right?" he says as he pays attention to the road once again

"Oh... And here I go thinking I'm sneaky as fuck..." I mumble

"Hell no, or yeah maybe for someone who hasn't got the same problem you do you might be flying under the radar...but c'mon it's me. Secret crushes is my thing" he laughs

"Wait...EDDIE? Really? You like Eddie? Yeah I mean...for a guy he's ok looking I guess" Robin is really gay by the way

"Yes..."I sigh "I like Eddie... I've liked Eddie since my freshman year ok!"

"But that's like...5 years now?" Steve is shocked

"Yeah" I say annoyed and look out the window

"Why the hell haven't you made a move? You seem like his type" Robin is dumbfounded

"I like the guy ok... I have no desire to only become another notch on the bedpost then discarded and left heartbroken...ok?" I snarl

"What changed?" Steve is once again looking at me in the mirror

"The fact that it's been 5 years...and who the hell knows what he's going to do now after graduating. He might leave, should I just go through life regretting never even having some fun with him 'cus I'm worried he's just another fuckboy?"

"I don't think the term fuckboy and Eddie is even allowed in the same room..." Robin says quietly

"What do you mean?" I say

"I don't think he's as bad as the rumours say" she shrugs

"Well...only time will tell. Maybe I'll just offer myself up and get shot down anyway so keep a spot open in the car" I say

"Ok so he's a nerd he's not an idiot" Steve smiles

"Just because you were stupid enough to fall for my shit doesn't mean he is" I chuckle

"Hey I had NO complaints what so ever...trust me. Top of the line" he says making a 'chef's kiss' sign

"Ew...but thanks I guess" we all laugh at Steve's review of me

We get to the party and it seems it's more crowded than we expected. I think more than even the guys throwing it expected. We walk in and there's a real weird mix of people everywhere. People I never even thought I'd see at a party hosted by "the freaks". I see Jeff in the kitchen talking to Mike and Dustin, I point them out to Steve so he knows they're here. I walk over and I throw myself at my best friend

"Hey Freakshow! Great turnout! Is this your idea of not that many people I know why you failed maths" I say giving him a big wet kiss on the cheek

"Fancypants! You're finally here, thank god. One sane person in here at least!" he says hugging me

"Where?" I say wide-eyed looking around "those people are scary" I laugh

"Yeah ok, fine...one person with the same mental state as me then"

"That's more like it, so you having fun?" I say reaching for a beer.

"Yeah, I mean... I don't even think I know half of the people in here. But word spread we'd have booze and pot so naturally this became THE party to go to... The only ones not here are Jason and his crew...and ain't no one missing them" Jeff says "cheers Fancypants now I'm an adult like you" he booms and lifts me off the ground spinning me

"Woooah big boy I'll spill my beer! That's alcohol abuse I'll have you know"I laugh "where's the rest of the gang?" I ask

"Oh they're around, I guess. Gareth's over there trying to impress some girl he has algebra with...as you can see...he's failing just as hard in both. Pete's in some serious discussion with Lucas bout last weeks campaign and Eddie is just around...making sales I guess" he shrugs at the last part "Ed's not much of a party guy...but he knows when it's prime business time" he smiles

"I see, well I'm gonna make the rounds. Wanna join in or are you good here?" I say

"Good here, booze here...booze good" he laughs

"Dude, take it easy. You're to heavy to carry remember that. And no puking in the sink...go outside" I say as I walk off in to the crowded space. Apparently this is Gareth's place. His parents work away from home a lot so he decided that was a sign to have a bash. I mean...good thinking! I see some people I know from when I was in school, have a few words with them. Walk on, get stuck talking to Robin and Nancy. Then I spot him, outside in the garden. Sitting on a bench with Chrissy, smiling looking like he's having the best time. Something inside churns...why her? She's one of the only cheerleaders I like so I can't get mad either. She's so freaking pretty it hurts looking at her AND she's sweet as hell. Of course that's his type...Robin turns to see what I'm looking at

"Oh that's nothing, they've been friends forever" she whispers in my ear

"Oh...I wasn't"

"Yeah you were...no lying to me. Here have a shot" she says and grabs some small glasses from a tray being passed around

"Fuck it, give me one!" I say, normally I stay clear of strong alcohol and stick to beers. But I'll just consider this liquid courage. I down the shot and hiss at the burning sensation

"Go get him tiger" Robin says slapping my ass

"Weirdo" I laugh at her but I start to make my way out to the garden. In the time it took me and Robin to down a shot Chrissy had apparently decided to abandon Eddie who's sitting there looking up at the stars. I sit down next to him, apparently I was quiet as a mouse because he's startled when he notices me

"WOAH where'd you come from?" he says

"In there..." I say pointing at the open doors

"You tiptoe out here or something? Didn't hear you coming" he smiles "Hey nice shirt, where'd you swipe it?"

"Nah, just walked normally. Trust me...if I were coming you better believe you'd hear me" I say. Here goes nothing! "oh the shirt, bought it after the show...was a good one, were you there?"

"Ha...ehmmm..what? OH" Eddie stares at me then he turns blood red in the face and looks down at his shoes. What the hell? He composes himself "What you saw Metallica live now on their tour? Seriously? Fuck I'm jealous...and me there? Yeah with what money" he mutters

"Hey tell me something Eddie, we've known each other, sort of atleast, for years now" I say casually

"Yeah" he almost croaks, he has to clear his throat before trying again "yeah...what do you want to know?"

"Why have we never fucked?" better be blunt right away than trying to play coy

He's silent, very suspiciously silent. I look at him, he's just staring at me

"What? It's a fair question? You're hot as fuck and I know I'm not too bad to look at. So why have we never bumped uglies?" I say

"I...wow...I didn't think you wanted anything to do with me..." he says with a nervous grin

"Come again? Not want anything to do with you? Why'd you think that? Have I been rude to you? Omg if I have I'm sorry" I say trying to think if I've ever been dismissive towards him in the past

"No, not like that...but you've always been so...neutral" he glances over at me like he's afraid to look straight at me any more

"Oh...I have, haven't I? In school it was just because of pricks like the jocks making my life difficult whenever they saw me with you guys... I haven't any excuse why it kept being that way now...sorry" I say bumping in to him from the side. I can feel him flinch...he notices I felt it "ok...sorry...apparently I was waaaay off here. I won't mention it again... So having fun tonight?" my heart sank but I tried keeping a cheerful facade

"Why would YOU wanna fuck someone like ME?" he says quietly

"What's wrong with someone like you then? Tell ya a secret?" a small glimmer of hope again

"Yeah"

"I had such a fucking crush on you in school" I didn't wanna be too much for him right now so I tweaked the duration of my crush a little

The look of pure shock in that handsome face "You what?" he says like it's the most idiotic thing I could have ever said to him

"Yeah, I mean honest to God. I walked around dreaming up all sorts of scenarios in my head whenever I saw you. Not to mention when we actually interacted...woah then my fantasies really went haywire" I smile

"Noooo...you're screwing with me now" he says in disbelief

"I did ask about that, or more or less offered...you haven't answered me yet" I say meaningly

"Whaa...oh...yeah that... I don't think I have a good answer for you" he shrugs

"Look, I'm attracted like hell to you. I'm game if you are...you don't even have to take me home...we could just slip in to one of the bathrooms here to have a quickie...I just...need to get the thought of fucking you out of my head" I say

He stares at me again like he's not sure I'm really here at all "So...if I want to I can fuck you right now?" he says

"Yup...well maybe a little more private than right here but yeah" an idea strikes me "ok lets do it like this" I say and I get up and I straddle him on the bench. I hear a sharp intake of air as I look down in to his brown eyes. His mouth is slightly open and his hands are now tentatively around my waist "hey you may touch it's allowed" I whisper in his ear and then I let my tongue play on the soft spot right under his ear. He moans and I can feel all the hairs in his neck stand up. I keep placing little kisses on his neck, trailing up to his mouth. I stop with my lips barley touching his "I think we should kiss to see if there's any reaction...don't you?" I whisper. I can both see and hear as he swallows hard, he nods vigorously. I let my hands slide up his back and in to his hair, then I go in for the kiss. And holy crap on a cracker his lips are amazing. He's a good kisser, but...something in his kiss almost feels like he's unsure about what he's doing. I can't help it, but being this close to Eddie, kissing him, having his scent invade my nostrils makes me so horny I start grinding down on him. Well...if I wasn't sure before I sure as hell am now. There's no denying he wants me too...in a BIG way. Damn, he seems to be packing... Suddenly he jerks away from me

"Yeah...wanna get the fuck out of here then?" he mumbles

"You sure?" I smile

"Abso-fucking-lutely" he says nodding to enhance his words

I stand up and I smile as I see the very prominent bulge on the front of his jeans, he stands up as well. Turns around and I can tell it's to "fix himself" for walking through the house.

"I'm just gonna find Steve or Robin and tell them I'm leaving. Meet you out by your van?" I say

"Yup...good plan" he says "I'ma...walk around" he blushes again looking down at his crotch where the bulge is still very visible

"You do that" I say and I lean in and give him another kiss "just because I can" I whisper as he looks at me questioningly

I run in to the house, look around like a crazy person to find any of my friends. I spot Steve in the kitchen, I make my way through the crowd. I'm surprised to see he's talking to Jeff and Gareth.

"Hey ma boys, weird seeing the three of you in the same place" I say

"Yeah...Harrington's actually kinda ok...for a douchebag" Jeff laughs

"Hey I said I was sorry for being awesome in high school" Steve also laughs

"Whatever dudes... I'm leaving" I say

"Noooo...but you just got here" Jeff says "that bored of us already?"

Steve's been looking me over...up and down...looking at my red face and shiny eyes "OH FUCK ME DEAD! You're leaving with Munson aren't you!" he pokes my arm repeatedly

"WHAT?! Nooooo who caved?" Jeff says and I'm so glad Gareth had seen some other girl he wanted to try and get with and he left us.

"Caved?" both me and Steve look at Jeff

"Oh fuck...wasn't supposed to say anything..."

"About WHAT JEFFREY?" I only use his full name so he knows I mean business

"Well...you've both been kinda the same...walking around moping over each other for years now" he shrugs and gives me an apologetic smile

"Oh hell no...we are talking about this later. Now I have to go..." I give him my patented death stare "the hell kinda behaviour is this springing something like this on me now when I have no time to kick your ass for keeping secrets from me" I mutter "YOU!" I point at Steve "make sense of this" I say "you're sober...figure out what this oaf is talking about" I say...

"Will do boss!" Steve says and salutes me

"Hey Fancypants...you mad at me?" Jeff says pouting and giving me big puppy eyes

"Nah Freakshow, can't be mad at ya. But don't keep secrets from me that are about me" I say and I tut at him

"Promise...but Fancypants...be nice to him...he's not what you think" he says before I leave

"When am I not nice? YOU SHUT UP!" I say as I can see Steve's grin getting bigger and he's about to make a comment "I'm leaving now before I lose it with you two" I say and smile

When I get out to the front I see the van down by the end of the driveway. It's engine is running so I guess Eddie's good to go. I quicken my steps and I open the door. Eddie looks at me...relieved? Was he worried I wouldn't show up?

"Hey, sorry but Freakshow needed to give me pointers" I laugh

"Pointers?" Eddie seems to relax now that I'm in his van

"Yeah to be nice to you, because apparently you're not the way I think? Whatever that means" I say as I fasten my seatbelt. I look up when I don't hear the expected chuckle. Eddie's looking worried

"He said that? Jesus Jeff... What else did he let you know about me" he sighs as he puts the van in to drive and we head out on to the road

"Well...if I wasn't mistaking you've liked me for about as long as I've liked you and we've been moping around over each other for years so now he's thrilled...or something" I giggle at the thought

"For fucks sake Jeff...apparently can't have a secret 'round him then" he mumbles

"What, you telling me it's TRUE?" I say in shock

"You think he'd make something like that up?" Eddie says looking straight out the window, not even a glance at me

I glance over my shoulder...yeah of course there's a mattress back there "Stop the van Eddie" I say quietly

"What?"

"Stop the van Eddie" I say louder this time

"But you can't walk from here it's pitch black" he says worried

"Eddie...just. Stop. The. Fucking. Van!" I feel like I'm boiling at this point

"Ok...ok...sorry if I upset you. I mean I could have lied to you" he says as he stops on the side of the road "there you can get out now" he mumbles

"Get in the back" I say as I begin to untie my boots

"You...what?" he stares at me

"Get in the fucking back of the van dude... I need you to fuck me with every ounce of feelings you may have for me...ok" I say as I kick off my shoes and stand up and make my way back to the mattress

"Yeah...fuck...yeah of course" what is it with this dude sounding like he's never had a woman take control before. He stumbles a little as he removes his shoes and come crawling back to join me. "Wait...fuck I'm sorry but... I mean we're not parked very good here...if the cops come they WILL knock...there's a dirt road just a little up the way. Can I just move the van there?" he says

"Sure. I do not want any interruptions... I'll just make myself comfortable then" I say

Eddie swallows visibly and nods, gets in the drivers seat and gets the van rolling. I smile to myself as I begin to remove skirt, t-shirt and fishnets. Leaving me laying there in panties and a bra...matching for the occasion of course. It's just a couple of minutes until the van makes an abrupt stop and Eddie turns over to me again, when he sees me laying there wearing next to nothing a sound comes from him that I couldn't imagine anyone making even if I tried. It's like a mix between a moan and a cry.

"Fucking hell you're gorgeous" he says

Now it's my turn to get a little embarrassed... I did not expect that level of admiration...

"Wow...ehmm...thank you" I say suddenly feeling very exposed "eh...feeling a bit alone back here..." I say meaningly

"Yeah, fuck sorry... I was just admiring...and pinching myself" Eddie says and quickly moves to the back to join me. He sits down on his knees beside me, just looking so...for lack of a better word innocent. I sit up on my knees as well and I start removing his leather jacket

"Very rude letting a girl be naked all alone" I whisper as I find my way in under the hem of his shirt feeling his hot skin against the palms of my hands, he has a little bit of a happy trail I can feel...other than that he seems to be perfectly hairless. I run my hands up his chest, feeling his heart beat so hard it's about to break free. I pull the shirt of him and I sigh...

"You're even more perfect than I dreamt" I mumble. Ivory skin, marked by some scattered tattoos and the most delicious looking patch of hair disappearing down in to his jeans.

"Stan dup" I say coarsely

"I...have to tell..."

"Nope...no have to's now. Just stand" I say shaking my head at him

He sighs but stands up in front of me. He looks down like to ask "what now"

My hands follow the front of his jeans, feeling the muscles of his thighs flex under my fingertips. I zone in on his fly and I slowly pop the button and begin undoing the zipper. I look up and Eddie's eyes are shiny almost veiled like he's gonna cry? I smile at him and I put my fingers down the hem of jeans and boxers. I begin pulling them down, still looking in to his eyes. But then comes the grand reveal and I have to look at what he's packing. The last few inches I just pull down, I have to see him now. His cock slaps up against his stomach, rock hard and glistening from pre-cum already. It's big...Jesus Christ it's huge. I lick my lips and draw a deep breath "Eddie you're magnificent" I say

"Mhhhmmm" is the only response I get and I look up. He has his head back so that all I see is the underside of his chin. He's breathing heavily, and I can feel him shaking. This makes no sense... but what does make sense is the absolute perfect cock in front of me and the pool it's creating in my panties. I wrap my hand around the shaft of Eddies perfect pornstar cock and I moan. It's so hard and hot, red-ish pink head dripping pre-cum down my hand as I stroke it. I cant help it I have to touch myself. The hand I'm not stroking Eddie with I shove it down my panties and I start playing with myself, I can't remember ever being this wet. Eddie finally looks down and sees me stroking his cock, moaning and my hand down my panties. He stiffens and then he shoots his load with a deep coarse moan. Taking me completely by surprise, so much so that I yelp...

What the hell?

He's standing there head slightly back, hands over his face, breathing rapid heavy breaths

"I'm so fucking sorry" he moans "so fucking sorry" he almost sounds like he's crying at this point. He slumps down beside me and lays down, arms still over his face

"Ehm...is this a...problem you have?" I ask tentatively, how the fuck do you address this without sounding mean?

"What do you mean?" he says under his arms

"Coming...too soon when having sex?" I say feeling embarrassed

"How the fuck should I now" he mutters

"Wait...what?" I'm sitting next to him, drying my hands on a rag I found on the floor.

"How the hell should I know if I come too soon when having sex... I've never fucking had sex before..." he almost yells in frustration

There is silence...the kind you could cut with a knife. My brain isn't getting what he's saying...is he?

"Eddie...are you a virgin?" I whisper

"Of fucking course I am...no one wants to fuck the freak" he snarls, I don't take offence. I know it's nothing to do with me personally. I feel so fucking bad right now throwing myself at him, cornering him in a situation like this one...but it's done now. Might as well try to make up for it. I lay down next to him, as close as I can get. I start running my fingers along his naked body...

"I want to fuck the freak... I've always wanted to fuck the freak..." I whisper

Eddie's holding his breath, it's so quiet. Then he exhales loudly "don't makes jokes right now" he mumbles

"Eddie...look at me please"

He lowers his arms, I can see there's tears in his eyes. He looks at me, there's a defensive look in his eyes. I keep running my fingers over his torso

"I may have a reputation for being a bitch but I would NEVER joke about something this important Eddie , I promise you that. I really, really want to try this again... You're so fucking hot Eddie, and I've had a crush on you since freshman year. I mean...if I'd known I had even the slightest chance to get with you...trust me you wouldn't be a virgin now..."

"A slight chance?" he sounds exasperated "do you have any idea how I feel about you? Remember when Jeff and I became friends in 8th grade?"

"Yeah, the birth of Corroded Coffin, how could I forget" I smile

"I've fucking loved you since that first time Jeff brought you along to hang with us. You were the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen...and you only got hotter growing up. I've had to watch you go from one guy to the other and never even giving me a second look. Yeah you've always been polite and nice to me...but I just wanted you to notice me... see me..." there's a tear trickling down his cheek. This is when I realised that Robin knew too, this is what she meant...he's not as bad as the rumours say he is. I feel tears threatening myself, this is just...too much. He's such a sweet gentle soul and I fucking acted like a whore. I start crying. Eddie turns to me

"What's wrong? Did I say something bad?"

I tell him my exact thoughts, he's totally gobsmacked for a couple of minutes. Then he pulls me in close and starts kissing me

"Please no crying, I didn't mean to make you cry. This was a great experience, omg it's the best fucking orgasm I've had. I would have just wished I'd been man enough to tell you from the start and maybe I wouldn't have nutted all over you without warning. You can NEVER think that I think of you as a whore. Who the hell cares if you've had sex... I mean just because I haven't doesn't mean I think anyone that has is bad. Jesus I was so fucking jealous I could cry everytime I heard any of the guys talking about their "conquests" when all I wanted was to have you...no one else but you" he's a blabbering mess now

My feelings take over and I roll him back on to his back and I lay down on top of him. Kissing him, running my hands in his hair, leaving marks on his neck "mine now" I purr. Eddies hands are on my back, I feel him tentatively fumble with the clasp of my bra

"Can I?" he mumbles

"Please" I mewl

Eddie manages to get my bra open, I sit up and I remove it completely. His eyes says everything I would have ever needed to hear. His hands slowly caress my stomach, up my chest until they reach my boobs. He takes one in each hand, feeling them, weighing them in his hands, taking the nipples between his fingers. I can feel my panties getting absolutely soaking wet.

"One second" I say and I roll off him to remove them as well. Then I'm back on top of him again. Feeling the tuft of hair on his stomach against my clit. I lay down, taking his face in my hands, I kiss him. God I kiss him with years of feelings pent up. His hands are all overme again, grabbing my ass, kneading like my ass cheeks are dough. I can feel he's hard as a rock again, but this time he has to take command, I don't wanna push him again. Not my place to be a demanding bitch twice in one night.

I can feel his cock twitch, every time it does it flicks my clit and I just wanna grab him and sit myself down on that massive fucking beauty of a cock. Like he's reading my mind I feel him put his hand between himself and me, pushing on me to raise myself a little. I do that, now he's got real access to his cock, I feel him stroking it a few times, then he carefully starts sliding it up and down my soaked slit making me feel dizzy. I hear him mumble to himself "no one remembers a coward Munson" and it's the cutest thing I've ever heard. But I get distracted as he lines up with my opening and gently pushes himself in.

"Fuuuuuck" I hiss, the stretch is amazing. I have to sit up now. I raise my upper body slowly and I look down at Eddie. His pupils seem blown, his eyes are not brown anymore they're black with desire. I slowly sink down on his cock, moaning the whole time. It's fucking amazing the way he fills me so perfectly. His hand has left his cock now, bet he knows it's in good hands anyway. He's holding on to my hips now. I'm down to the hilt now, feeling his hair against me.

"Don't move just yet" Eddie moans with restraint "please"

I sit still feeling like he's filled my entire lower body. I lean my head back and I start playing with my tits, I just wanna move soooo bad. I look at Eddie, he's mesmerized by what's happening. His fingers are digging in to the fat on my hips.

"Please Eddie...can I touch myself?" I beg "I won't move I just wanna feel you inside as I rub myself"

"Fuuuuck....yeah...ok. This is so much better than I could have ever imagined, you're so fucking hot and tight around me. I'm so scared I'll blow my load if you even shift your weight right now..." he moans

I let one hand slide down my body and in between my thighs, I start with soft circles around my clit, just teasing it. But something inside takes over and I start rubbing real good, like I do at home when I'm imagining this very thing. Having Eddie inside of me. I'm close, just from feeling his big cock inside, no movement only filling. Then I feel Eddie's hands sort of urging my hips to move.

"Fuck it I need to feel you move around me. I'm sorry if this will be a 2 second affair again" he growls and he grabs my ass and I fall forward, still one hand rubbing myself and one hand I'm resting on the mattress. He starts thrusting, first slow like he's not sure this is the way to do it. But he must have gotten a taste for it because very quickly he's pounding me to the high heavens. I feel the tension snap and I scream

"Fuuuuuck Eddiieeeee...yes...yes...YEEEES fuck yeah....ooooo my gooood...aaaaaahhhh" I feel my pussy convulse around him and I'm literally seeing stars.

"Fucking hell...wooow....oh here it comes...fuck here it comes" Eddie's grip on my ass tightens, that's gonna leave pretty marks in the morning. I can feel the throbbing and pulsating inside as he empties himself in me growling like an animal as he does. So fucking sexy I feel like I could come just from that sound alone.

"Jesus fucking Christ that was amazing" he pants breathlessly when he's able to speak again. Then I hear him gasp "fuck...I didn't wear a"

"No worries, I'm on the pill Ed" I say as I'm slumped over on his chest feeling like I've never felt before from sex

"Oh...good...'cus I'd like to do this again...as soon as he's up for another go..." I can hear the smile on his voice and then I feel him kissing the top of my head

"Oh sweetheart, you have so much to learn and I'm more than willing to teach you" I giggle

"Was that a nice way to tell me this sucked?" he laughs so I'm bouncing on his chest

"Honey did that fucking feel like I thought it sucked?" I look up at him

"Well...I don't know do I?" he winks at me

"Trust me... you're a natural" I smile
