Get ready for some flufffffffff!!!!! Will post the entire fic when it’s finished but wanted to share this fluffy intro for fun!!

For the flufftober prompt “hoodie weather”—-which…is coming later in the fic 😂 thanks to @ascreamintothevoid-blog for the prompt ❤️❤️❤️ here’s a preview!! 🥰

*white collar season 6 spoilers*

Neal eyed the room and decided now was the perfect time to make his escape. His subjects were distracted by his generous gifts, eyes glittering with greed as they devoured their loot. If Neal wanted to escape certain capture and torture, he needed to leave and it needed to be now.

Silent as falling snow, Neal slipped into the shadows of the room and practically slid to the door, not forgetting his fedora that had fallen to the floor in all the mayhem. He reached out his hand to twist the doorknob, heart pounding, hoping that he’d chosen the right moment to escape.

Yes!

The doorknob turned and Neal vanished into the night.

Well, he almost vanished into the night when a deep voice cried out:

“Hands up, Caffrey!”

Neal froze.

“Yeah! Hands up!” a much higher and younger voice called.

Neal couldn’t help but let a smile break across his face. He put his hands up and spun around slowly.

Peter Burke and his son, Neal Burke, stood on the townhome stoop, both with their hands on their hips looking much like the father and son pair that they were. The only difference between the two (aside from their age) was that little Neal had brilliant blue eyes and a mop of jet-black hair—resembling his mother in every way except his body language and mannerisms, all of which were pure Peter Burke.

“You caught me,” Neal chuckled, striding back to the front steps, admitting defeat.

He’d tried anyway.

“And that’s five!” Peter said triumphantly, kneeling next to his son, “You see, I’ve caught your Uncle Neal—”

“Oh come on, Peter, that doesn’t count, I wasn’t running from the law,” Neal scoffed.

The younger Neal narrowed his eyes and crossed his arms. He was seven years old and way too smart for his own good.

“So my dad isn’t law enforcement?” He questioned.

Neal rolled his eyes.

“And you weren’t running from him?” The kids pressed on and Neal felt very much like he was being interrogated.

“I was simply leaving dinner. I’m tired and—”

“You aren’t tired!” Neal Burke argued. “I saw you drink a cup of coffee after dessert!”

Neal opened his mouth and then closed it. Peter raised his eyebrows, a smirk forming on his lips.

Damn Burkes and their observational skills.

More to come!!! 😁😁😁😁 we’ll find out what Neal is running from lol 😂

My favourite thing about Leia is how fucking soft she is.

Like she is a little lady. She speaks very gently. She cares so much. She’s protective and warm. She just smiles and looks so happy. With Luke. Like, only Luke.

In the movies, this is also the case, but it really is one of my favourite parts of the 2015 run of the comics. They’re like, Leia: “Luke is doing great” while Luke is in the background getting thrown through a wall.

Sana (I love Sana) says she’ll won’t take Leia to Nar Shaddaa (to Luke) for free and Leia immediately offers her credits. When Sana is like “nah, just give me Han” Leia immediately agrees, and like. It’s funny for a variety of reasons but my favourite one is that Leia is trading Han for the Chance of seeing Luke.

And like, the comics show Leia telling Luke that she supports him even though he has to leave and she is very sad about it. She’s super disappointed she doesn’t get to go on the long probably meant-to-be boring mission with him. She just wants to hang out with Luke and make sure he’s okay and try not to lose him in the first fifteen minutes (again) or fifteen minutes after finding him again (also again).

I mean, it isn’t just Leia, I fucking adore Chewbacca’s relationship with Luke because. “Who would be stupid enough to volunteer to go on a doomed rescue mission for Skywalker-“ and it’s Chewbacca, Chewbacca is stupid enough, Chewbacca has the ship idling in the hangar, Chewbacca has had a Luke Rescue Kit in the ship since Luke left a week ago, Chewbacca is so ready to go on a doomed, borderline suicidal rescue mission for Luke.

Chewbacca just beats up a bar full of people to get them to tell him where Luke is. Like, that’s amazing. It’s adorable. He makes C3PO come with him. A wonderful idea. Chewbacca eventually picks Luke up like Like is a big cat. My favourite panel of all time.

Chewbacca and Leia are both over there like “I’ve only had Luke for three and a half months and if anything happened to him, I would kill all of you to get enough blood to perform an ancient ritual to make him perfectly alright again and I would start with Han.”

Han, meanwhile, is over there like “rude. Understandable, but still. Super rude.”

And I just think how soft Leia is with Luke is really sweet and how soft Chewbacca is with Luke is really cute and how both of them are so sarcastic to Han for literally no reason other than that they Thrive with his annoyance-

It’s great. If nobody else gets the characters, the 2015 run comes the closest.

Going to do a Nevermoor series reread in June + July + August ? if anyone else also wants to do a reread around that time, could be fun to have more of the fandom prepping for Silverborn

Did initially make a roadmap plan to split the books up into weeks on top of already being months, so that people could focus on specific parts and discuss each week….. but between the fact that I messed it up the first time, Silverborn kept getting delayed as I planned it, and I’m actually really bad at keeping to stuff like that (looking at you, Silverborn Countdown Challenge…) I’m deciding to just go for it at whatever pace happens.

Me, wondering if I’ve become immune to media, that, even if I find something I enjoy a lot, there’s been nothing in a few years that has rocked me to my core & become a fundamental part of who I am, so maybe I’ve just read/watched/listened to too much and can no longer be affected as deeply as I used to be: 😐

Kevin Perjurer: …so what a monumental achievement it is to be remembered for four.

I’ve been really thinking of reopening my art shop soon… I’ve been taking some practice doodles (hence all the posting lately) while I shake off my rust and I’m finding things I enjoy working on again. I miss trying my hand at more dragons/OCs and colors. my shop’s so broken rn lmao but that’s a problem for a later date it’s just nice getting back into art
