convinced he's getting frantic calls from jamie rn like "hi hey can u turn ur tags back on for business purposes thanks" lol <3
i can see girlie and jamie trying to call him like when he’s busy. he’s probably working out or something and he thinks it’s an emergency. but *sigh* it’s his boss calling him and his lovely gf😭
once he's done swinging from monkey bars or whatever he does at the gym he checks his phone and there's like several missed calls from both you and jamie and texts from you like "matty. phone me now it's important". he knows you're in the office but the amount of calls genuinely makes him panic so he calls genuinely panicked like "hi? sweetheart? are you ok? is the baby ok?", and you're like "she's kicking lumps out of me but yeah we're fine", and honestly i think matty gets a teeny bit annoyed like "well why all the phone calls? you had me panicking". and you're like "oh. sorry. it's just something time sensitive for work - can you turn your insta tags on again please? we're doing the release of amber being the opener today and we need to get everyone on socials", and matty's like "THAT'S why you phoned me eighteen times in a row?! for fuck's sake, babe. there was no need for all that"; he regrets it as soon as he says it, though, because there's silence on the other end before he hears a sniffle, and then you quietly shakily saying "m'sorry. was just trying to do my job. didn't mean to annoy you. if you could just let jamie know when you've turned tags on. thank you" and then sobbing "love you. bye" before you hang up. he knows it's mostly pregnancy hormones making you weepy (you teared up when you forgot to wash a teaspoon at home the other day), but he feels awful - tries to phone your mobile and gets no answer, so he calls your desk phone at work and says "s'me. don't hang up, please, i just want to say sorry for making you upset. just got worried about my girls, that's all. i love you. can i do anything to make it up to you?", and you're like "if you're still at the gym, yeah". matty smiles down the phone like "i'm still there. what d'you want me to do?", and you very quietly say "send me a shirtless selfie so i forget to be upset, please"; he giggles and says "whatever my girl wants. also, i've turned tags on, so you can post the news, darling. sorry again. i love you, i'll pick you up later" <3

Reminder: What Peaches allegedly went through is horrible, if true, but that does not excuse him from what he did to Rosa. As an autistic person, his and Lio’s actions remind me of downright horrible bullies I’ve dealt with (I am not a victim of bullying, at least in the traditional sense, but it’s a long story.) and it’s deplorable the way they treated her.
Peaches has called people the r slur, and another derogatory term for an autistic person based on the word aspergers (I have my own issues with the term itself anyway) and clearly enjoyed what he did to Rosa. In some of the audio recordings he released, he did show remorse for what he did to Rosa, however, he went into those conversations with Lio with the intent of recording and publicising it to throw Lio under the bus. I was only vaguely aware of the Rosa call before, and Lio had given me weird vibes, but I always excuses his behaviour with “oh, well, they’re predators, who cares if he’s mean to predators?” But nope, turns out he just treats everyone like shit. And that’s the thing with these moral grandstanding people. They channel their anger into self-proclaimed righteousness to avoid being seen as the unhinged mf they are. Nah. Fuck ableists. Fuck this shit.
Deplorable behaviour. To think it took 3 hours for anyone to say anything. Everyone who was in that call should be ashamed of themselves, even if they were silent. You’re an enabler.
I hate these internet vigilantes. I actually give a shit about these topics, so here are some resources about topics I care deeply about.
Fuck ableists. Bye.
Here’s the video of these grown adults bullying a mentally handicapped woman for not having a job and needing a carer for three hours. Oh, and she’s not the predator in this case, she just didn’t ban the predator, and likely didn’t even KNOW there was one in the server, might’ve not even had permissions to kick them! I run a server, and unless someone is a very obvious troll, I don’t just let my mods ban who they want, most servers don’t. Seriously. This video is repulsive. Check tags.
Video #1 - Lio tries to act scary
Video #2 - Cowards in a VC harass a neurodivergent woman for 4 hours
Video #3 - A video of a cute dog unrelated to this ableist nonsense
Edit: btw the rosa call isn’t the only fucked up call these two participated in, but that wasn’t what my post was about so I didn’t mention it. u can google shit bou it. Might wanna look int2 the Jibz situation. There’s also niche situations like some ND dude called Robert who got bullied by senate for… not liking harassment, lol. Senate sure be a lovely bunch of people, ay? Oh, yeah, recently found out ‘ay’ is pronounced ‘I’ and not ae. Unrelated. Also talking about shit like this just pisses me off. Really fucking much.
Edit 2: I said I was “vaguely aware” of the rosa call before. Turns out I was pissed about it 8 months ago and completely forgot, cuz I liked two comments from back then on the original call (not the 4 hours one) criticising it. Btw, the comment section there is full of ableists. Have fun reading that.
Edit 3: LioConvoy released his video. While I haven’t finished it, I have mixed thoughts on it (like I’m skeptical of some things but generally the screenshots don’t make Peaches look good regardless) I just got to one part, and can I just say how fucking funny it is for Peaches to have a genuine fit over not getting imposter in among us? That’s all I wanted to say.
Edit 4: Not Lio trying to argue with a lawyer 😭 it’s so funny that he tried arguing with a lawyer. You know what getting pissy when someone doesn’t cower to you is? You know what kind of behaviour that is? Bullying behaviour. I’m not doing an argument by authority I’m just saying it’s very audacious to assume you’d know more than a lawyer. And why does this mf like saying “oh, but THIS person is also bad!” Yeah, a lot of people talking about this situation are pretty fucked up themselves. And??? How does that make you look good?? “Soapbox house of cards and glass so don't go tossin' your stones around.” E
Edit 5: I ain’t gonna ride anyone in this situation the only things I advocate are is A) animal rights B) myself. With that said, why is “this video covering the Rosa call is CATTY and MEAN” a criticism now lol? Like okay… and? They were being catty and mean in the call. You don’t have to take the assholes in the call seriously to take the situation seriously? What a strange criticism. I can’t see the likes/dislikes on the video, so idk the consensus, but yeah.
Addendum: Lioconvoy be like: The Rosa call was abhorrent (the language we used not the fact we were screaming at a mentally disabled woman) and it’s fair game (it was over a year ago though why are people bring it up) and it was not okay in the slightest (rosa is a deceitful, bad person) and I won’t make any excuses for my actions (rosa was still in the wrong) and I want to apologise for the ableist language I used (no I won’t show proof I apologised to rosa)
Like yeah rosa might’ve done something wrong (depending on which factors are true, which are false) but if you’re gonna apologise to someone, just apologise. “Sorry, but…” is not an apology. If you’re gonna double down, be blunt about it at least and don’t pretend you’re actually sorry. But pandering, am I right?
You know I remember criticising Mamamax and Lioconvoy once in my server, and someone said “well at least Lio gets people arrested.” No hate to that person, but knowing what I know now, couldn’t be further from the truth. 💀 I wouldn’t say it’s ironic, but there’s a word there somewhere for that.
No, I’m not saying you can’t be criticised if you have a disability. I’m saying the punishment doesn’t fit the crime. She was literally blackmailed into remaining in the call. That call was verbal beratement, blackmail and power-abuse; I’m not sugarcoating it.

I'm updating how I do my monstiary pages! And more stuff about the monstiary.
Hi everyone, I have ended my break of doing monstiary pages as I have gotten my motivation back and hopefully won't loose it again : ]. With my break I came up with some ideas to make the pages better than they were before so I shall explain how they will work from now on.
(There's art under the cut I promise)
Firstly I made a standard layout for the monstiary pages that all of them will follow from now on, Sooza was used as an example because it's one of my favorite monsters.
Tumblr media
Btw I will be making my own drawings of the elemental sigils because I feel like giving myself too much work. Of course the pages will be colored I just did sketches for the examples because, for the third time, lazy. The first thing spoken about in the monstiary posts will be a general description of the monster, followed by random biology facts, then some ecology if I have some.
Secondly I made a character to be writing all these pages in universe! Mons. Booksby (Mons. is used as a suffix [or something idk what that type of thing is called but you know it's like Mr. or Mrs.] to proclaim an individual as important) a chipper fluffy Bowgart who had an interest in monster/critter biology and art. I don't have a first name for it so I will only refer to it as its last name. They were alive during the very early ages of the modern monster world and also technically the very late ages of the time period directly after the dawn of fire because they were turned into a statue by the events of the cataclysm. Long story, unfortunately it doesn't remember anything from before they were a statue other than that it was taking art classes.
Tumblr media
I did a little comparison in that doodle page of a standard Bowgart and Booksby to 1: show the unique traits of Booksby and 2: to show how much individuals tend to variate from the standard individuals shown in my monstiary pages. Also that's it at the beginning of its monstiary project, it was very VERY old at the end of the project as shown in this self portrait with the finished monstiary (don't mind me I just wanted to try out a more painterly style real quick, also forgot the tuning pegs on the horns, oops!) Also btw all of my msm characters use it/its pronouns unless stated otherwise as it's the closest to the translation of the monstrous pronouns used for referring to a sentient being, but because they don't know English nor have an idea of genders or whatever they don't mind being referred to as other pronouns if you feel like it I guess.
Tumblr media
Not a lot is actually known about Booksby as an individual as it wrote very little about itself, taking pride in its inpersonal writing style for its academic work. Also as a totally unrelated side not that did not cause me to make that previous decision about the character, I suck at writing character specific dialogue. Though they did add little notes to some drawings they made and that's the closest anyone has to any personal information about it.
Finally I will now be using the tag monstiary for anything relating to the monstiary to make it easier to access. idk how to end this lol bye come back tomorrow to see monster taxonomy and some explanation of that because that's what I'm doing next!

would you write Eddie x reader where he's like, dropping everyone off at night and reader is last, when the kids are gone she takes her bra off because it was definitely hurting her aaaaand Eddie notices that she's got pierced nipples? NO NEED to make it smutty if u don't feel like it, just curious about his reaction? lol thanks <3
I was supposed to post this a few days ago but I forgot </3 - sorry I didn’t have time to proofread
Warnings: mature themes, MINORS DNI, nipple play, nipple piercings, slight dom/sub,
Right Before My Eyes - Eddie x Reader
Eddie’s van served many different purposes. He could have deals in pure secrecy, shielded by the extra back space. It also meant that he was the resident driver. Having to drop every single member of hellfire club off at their respective houses because, after all, he did make them stay out late for his campaigns. There was no surprise that the kids would beg for a ride in his van, seeing it as some form of fun they wanted to exploit as much as they could. You just happened to tag along, in need for a ride after your car broke down in the summer.
Eddie had just started the car, calling out to everyone to get in before he left without them, an empty threat knowing he would never - but a threat nonetheless. He only had to drop off the younger boys, Erica choosing to hang out with her friends for once. Leaving you in a car full of teenage pheromones. Luckily, Eddie gave you shotgun privileges for being a senior and all the others could do was sulk in response.
“Bye Dustin!” You waved enthusiastically, leaning back on the seat to stretch. “Why do you always drop me off last even though Dustin practically lives in the middle of nowhere?”
“I don’t want to sit in an empty van with Dustin without some support.” He chuckled. “He is a hand full.” You shrugged in response, fiddling with the seatbelt.
“Who made these things so uncomfortable.” You groaned, pulling one of your bra straps down. Relishing in the instant relief you felt. The seatbelt had been rubbing against your recent piercings, creating an intolerable ache. Unclipping the back quickly, you threw it behind you, landing in the rear end of the van. “Oh fuck, I’ll never find that thing again.” Tilting your body to take a good look, you’re met with complete darkness.
“I’ll take it as a souvenir.” Eddie chucked, looking down at you. He caught a glimpse of your shirt without the bra, a clear indent where your nipples were. “Do you have your nipples pierced y/n?”
“Keep your eyes on the road.” You said, dismissing his comment.
“Any other piercings I should know about?” Eddie keened curiously.
“Just these.” You giggled, cupping your boobs underneath, making the metal appear more visible. “It was a dare.”
“Well I would like to personally thank whoever gave you that dare.” Eddie said slowly. “They are a godsend.” His eyes were glued to you, watching every breath you took closely.
“You can personally thank the piercings.” You said, biting your bottom lip. “Wanna see them?”
He had already pulled up at your house, turning the ignition off. “Come here.” He patted his jean covered thigh. Although climbing over was not the easiest thing, you made do and found yourself straddling his thighs. This new position gave Eddie a perfect view, nipples now hard against your shirt, you let him have complete control.
There was an obvious strain in his pants, tenting underneath your legs. His hands were gentle, moving slowly over your chest. You had really hoped no one was home to see Eddie Munson make putty out of you. One quick look out the window and you’d be caught. Maybe that was a part of the fun.
Your breath hitched with every lingering touch. Eddie looking up at you with each movement, being careful not to hurt you. “So sensitive, sweetheart.” His words echoed around the van, hitting you like shockwaves.
“They’re still. Kinda. N-new.” You said between breaths, flinching at each touch.
“They’re-“ He paused suddenly, watching as your nipple twitched slightly. “Wow”
“Stop staring.” You grumbled, feeling self conscious, despite being on Eddie Munsons lap as he practically calls you perfect.
“So I take that as an invitation for this.” He smiles, swiping his tongue across your bud softly. You gasp lowly, almost embarrassed from the noise emanating from you. Covering your face with your hand, you let Eddie continue, using your other hand to hold his head in place, fingers digging into his curls.
The tension was high. Labored gasps followed by sweet words of encouragement was all you could muster out. It had to be at least midnight by the time you opened your eyes. Seeing Eddie below you, panting between breaks, was a sight. He had you coming completely undone without even starting.
So there you had it. The best possible use of Eddie’s van, that was newly discovered today, would have to be the late night hookups, fueled by the pure adrenaline of the nights session. Now that you knew about the furthering perks of the van, you made sure to make good use of it, with Eddie right behind you.
“Hey, look what I found!“ Eddie grinned widely, holding up your bra from earlier.

lol I started this the morning before we got word of the teaser and then PROMPTLY forgot about it. But here we go! I was tagged by @oatmilktruther, @bizarrelittlemew, @ghostalservice and @petrichorca, who are all equally amazing as people as they are writers. 💖
Rules: Share the first lines of your ten most recent fics and tag ten people.
The day began, as they always did, with a kiss. (all of these lines across my face) The infamous Grief Fic™, post-canon, Ed and Stede are in their 80s, I promise it is more uplifting than it sounds. I'm very proud of this one, but please mind the tags.
Dear Tooth Fairy, My name is the Swede and I am 42 years old. (A Fairy Tale) Ed is history's greatest tooth fairy, Stede is an eccentric flower fairy, and they have a magical adventure on the wings of my personal favorite OC, Arthur the rosy maple moth. Potentially the cutest thing I've ever written.
"Bye, Bonnet!" (Here's to the Night) It's Y2K, and Stede is stuck at the office making sure his father's company doesn't collapse at midnight, and Ed is the sexy IT consultant who calls him every 30 mins to flirt I mean, check in on things. There's romance. There's silliness. There's heavy 90s nostalgia. No Neopets were harmed in the creation of this fic.
There’s nothing Edward Teach loves more than a big, beautiful clock. (Clock Strikes One) Unhinged, clock-themed porn, this time with spanking. It's both filthy and educational! It's the follow up to Witness Marks, and there will be more.
It’s been four days since the former crew of the Revenge reappeared, and Ed’s hiding in his cabin. (Choose Your Own Adventure: Reunion!) By far the COOLEST fandom project I've ever been a part of! So many writers and artists took part in creating this, and it is magnificent. If you haven't found all paths yet, here's your reminder to do so. There's something for everybody.
There was something to be said for being married to one of the world's most sought-after fashion designers. (Pretty and Stiddies and Gay!) Inspired by this incredible art by @buumbaby. Ed and Stede are ridiculously in love and have hot sex, including once in public while Stede's in a gorgeous evening gown.
Stede sat on a bench in the lobby area of the office building and took a hearty sip of his very berry smoothie. (A Day in the Life of Model Employee S. Bonnet) Stede is the world's worst postal worker, who blows off his job to flirt with famed hair model Edward Teach. Possibly my favorite Stede I've ever written.
Loudly did the muses sing of the sea god Edward and his mortal lover, Stede. (forever is our today (who waits forever anyway)) What it says on the tin. Ed and Stede are cursed for defying the gods' orders to part ways. I'm really proud of how this one turned out. Like, really proud.
"Maaaa." (To Get to the Other Side) Short, sweet, silly, smutty.
There's a moment when you're deep into a long drive when your mind begins to wander. (Where the Daylight Begins) My baby. My child. My pfp. My 115K magical realism modern AU that was heavily influenced by The House in the Cerulean Sea. I hope it leaves you feeling like you've been wrapped up in a big gay hug.
Not tagging anyone because this has been sitting in my drafts for so long I'm certain everyone has already done it, but if not, consider this your tag. 💕

HAPPY NEW YEAR BBYS 🥳🌻💃
Today, 1st January 2022 brings with it so many new opportunities for us. We have 365 days to evolve into a better person, to grow. I genuinely wish that this year brings us loads of positivity, happiness and good health. I hope all those moments we have felt I'm not good enough are replaced by realising our self worth. All the moments we have not liked even hated a part of us get turned into pure adoration and self love. I wish everyone a very happy new year. Let the past stay in the past let's make new, beautiful memories and achieve more than we have yet.
My Tumblr mutuals I LOVE YOU GUYS. You're like a blessing. I can come to talk to you when I can't talk to the people ik irl. You guys never judge and are always there. You make my life so so so much better. I came on here to be a part of a fandom but who knew I'd find three gems 🥺❤️

Hey y'all!
My exam date is 'almost' declared. It's on 17th July, 2022 most probably. So I thought in this last leg of the journey I must give my one hundred percent, right? I'll be going off Tumblr till my exam. I'd miss you all so much. Just thought I'd let everyone know before disappearing without any heads up and making my besties worried. I'll see you soon bbys hopefully as a medico🤞
BYE!
Stay hydrated and keep slaying 💅😚❤️

Me unintentionally romanticising my life by playing music while cooking or bathing; lighting scented candles while studying and going for long solo strolls every evening, just me, my music and nature.
How do you romanticise your life?

😩❤️🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
Tumblr media
Bruh, TWO FREAKING years?!?! Like two whole years. But okay, WOW i.
I'm so so so so soooo happy. My first year was so lowkey; I was scared to text 'popular blog owners'; I was legit scared to reblog at one point lol! It's been such a journey. I've loved every bit of it.
I've met such amazing people and I'd never trade this for anything.
@silverswallow @mendesblurb These two people have been my rocks here. They were the ones who made me stay and I'll never forget that. When I started writing they were my source of encouragement. I love you both SO MUCH.
@swiftmendeshoran Britt, the freaking VIBE you have, I LOVE you.
@yournameoneverypage Babe your fics ✨😩
@malfoytookmyheart bro like BRO your blog gets more relatable everytime I'm on there.
@chocochipcookie305 Mal, thankyou for being here.
Tumblr is literally my coping mechanism.
There is so much going on. I've met SUCH great people. All of my studyblr mutuals are the freaking best. I'm EMO and I'm not kidding. @alfalfaaarya @rae-blogging @proving-myself
I have and always will cherish every moment I've spent on here.
🥂 To many more shitposts and rants and fics (reading and hopefully writing)
Signing off

I absolutely love your chancellor kenobi series and am so grateful that you've written so much of it, you have sparked much joy for me. I wanted to ask your advice as someone who has written & published a large AU with many moving parts. How do you choose what order to publish things in? Do you have an outline that you stick to, do you publish as you write it, do you go with the flow?
Hello! Thank you so much, I'm glad to hear that you enjoy it!
Now, I could probably tell a few horror stories about how I was structuring my files and writing early on before @veilofadyingstar clowned on me enough times to get me to not write more than 5 different fics in the same google doc, separated only by headers (yes really), but I don't think that's very conductive to your questions, so I'll leave it at that, lol.
Chancellor Kenobi (CK) started as directly-into-tumblr ficlets. As in, I wrote everything directly into the text post editor and then just tagged it and pressed save and that was that.
It was also, early on, sort-of-not-really a prompt fic. Basically, I started by writing a ficlet on an idea, and then people wanted more of that ficlet, so they sent me asks. Sometimes they did manage to hit on what I imagined would happen, sometimes they didn't (in which case I would tell them what actually happened). I have so many asks still that I planned on replying to with a ficlet but just forgot, which is why my inbox currently has 156 messages in it, lmao (sorry everyone who sent me an ask!)
Back when this was the format CK was in, back in December 2016, I posted ficlets in whatever order I wrote them. I updated daily back then, sometimes even twice per day. After 10 days of this (so on the 13th, with about 10ish ficlets to the story) I asked if people wanted me to collect everything in a masterpost, which they did, at which point I had to go back and actually double check the order of events.
This was all so early on in the story that I just posted ficlets as I wrote them, haphazardly adding them into the timeline where they belonged, without caring about posting order at all.
I had an idea of what would happen, and as it grew more complex and I got further into the story, I realised that posting things out-of-order wouldn't be feasible anymore. The ficlets were becoming far too context dependent (because of the complexity and details of the plot) so even though I was still writing ficlets in the order of "whatever strikes my fancy", I now had to wait with posting until it was actually the next bit of the plot, this is when my updates started to slow down a lot, because yeah...
I started writing down an outline of events, but I never finished that, and I've since lost it lmao. So the actual plot, the story, the details... all of that lives only inside my head. I'm mentally keeping track of everything.
Which, honestly, I don't think I recommend that LMAO
After all, keeping it all in your head means that if you forget something, lmao, it's gone. bye bye
However, I did mention fairly recently that I'd done some organising of my files where I properly placed files out in order and name them, which now kind of works as an outline, lol (I use a writing subscription service for a gamified writing experience called 4thewords). However, there are a few blank files in between the named ones because I know I need more stuff in there in between the named events so it's not really a proper outline either.
So. I still write the fic out of order, which is something I can easily do due to the format I'm writing it in: interconnected ficlets as chapters. This means that I have ficlets that are far in the future of what I have posted, but they cannot yet be posted for the simple reason that the plot is now so complex that things need to be posted in order, otherwise it won't make sense.
As such, I no longer publish as I write, though I used to. At this point, the fic has grown too large and has too many moving pieces for that to be feasible.
Generally, I usually like to finish a fic before I post it, because that means that I can go back into early parts and edit them if need be (say I come up with something cool I need to foreshadow, or I realise that I mentioned something too early, or I realise I introduced a plotline I dropped so it's better to edit it out etc etc). That's not really possible with CK anymore (though, I mean, I guess I could go back and secretly edit stuff and pretend like nothing's up, lmao) so it's entirely possible that this fic has some inconsistencies etc (though I do my best to ensure there aren't any, there's always the risk I've missed something).
Writing CK and sharing it with all my readers has been an amazing experience, and I dearly hope people are not only willing to stick with me to the end, but also that they will feel like the pay-off was worth it.
For some people, finishing a fic before posting doesn't work because they need engagement to keep going, which is absolutely valid! For that, I think having a more structured outline is very useful in order to keep things clear and avoid accidental plot holes. It's no guarantee of course.
Ultimately, how you post and how you write comes down to you as an individual writer.
For me, it's rather flexible. Sometimes I write things in a strictly chronological order from start to finish and that's it. Sometimes I skip around in the story and need to make sure I leave very large empty spaces (metaphorical or literal) so I know where there's missing content that need to be written before the story is finished.
All of this is of course very much personal to me, and what works for one writer might not work for another. But I hope it gives you some help and some insight, perhaps.
Happy writing, anon!

Margaux’s New Friend - a Single Dad!Charlie short story
Tumblr media
THIS IS A PART OF THE SINGLE DAD!CHARLIE SERIES, YOU CAN FIND THE OTHER PARTS HERE
Request: none but @happinessinthedarkesttimes​ and i started discussing this after the last part of single dad!charlie and i couldn’t help but write it 
Word Count: 1281 words
Summary: Set before the Single Dad!Charlie series, at the start of filming when Margaux is only 2, Charlie has one more scene to shoot and all of his usual babysitters on set are gone, so Taylor steps up 
Warnings: none
A/N: so i wrote this like last week sometime? and didnt post it cause i didnt want to be annoying, and then forgot about it until today lol and now that my laptop is dead i wont be posting much writing so hopefully you like this one  i’m loving writing these little flashback short stories so you’ll probably see more of them eventually, if theres anything in particular you’d like to see in one of them (i have a couple of ideas already)  enjoy!
Tag List: @happinessinthedarkesttimes​​​​​​​​ @littlemissaddict​​​​​​​​ @vicesvsvirtuesfanfic​​​​​​​​ @headheartbellarke​​​​​​​​ @lovesanimals​​​​​​​​ @bartok-the-magnificent​​​​​​​​ @juliefromaustralia @multi-universe21 @rangerelik @kaitieskidmore1 ​​​​​​ @fandomxreaders​​​​​​​​​ @ifilwtmfc @yagorlemmalyn​
"Taylor, I need a massive favour.” Charlie gasped out, entering the room in a rush, his daughter in his arms. Taylor looked up from the piece of paper where he was studying the chords for Now or Never. 
“Yeah what’s up?” He questioned.
“Can you look after Margaux for like 20 minutes? I’ve got one more scene to shoot and Tori and Sav are already gone.” Charlie said quickly, and Taylor nodded.
“Of course man, no problems.” He agreed, and Charlie gave him a thankful smile, placing Margaux down on the ground in front of Taylor and kissing the top of her head. 
“She’s gonna cry, just distract her. Good luck. Bye baby!” Charlie called as he rushed back out of the room. 
Taylor stared down at the two year old, watching as her face fell when she realised her dad had left her behind. He had only met her once before and it wasn’t for very long, and the toddler had just clung to her father the whole time. This was his first time properly interacting with the little girl. 
“Hi Margaux, my name is Taylor, do you remember me?” He said softly, crouching down next to the two year old. She ignored him, still staring at the door that Charlie had left through, tears beginning to stream down her face. 
“Hey, don’t cry.” Taylor soothed, reaching out to rub her back, not wanting to overstep with the clearly emotional toddler. 
“Want Daddy.” She cried. Taylor bit his lip. 
“He’ll come back soon.” He tried, but Margaux shook her head. 
“Now.” She whined, her bottom lip jutting out. 
“He’s busy sweetie, why don’t we go get a snack or something?” Taylor tried. Charlie did say to distract her. Margaux nodded tearily, and Taylor hesitated. 
“Can I pick you up?” He asked gently. 
Margaux nodded again and Taylor stood back up before leaning down, lifting the tiny blonde toddler into his arms. Her face instantly went to his neck and he flinched slightly at the feeling of her tears and heavy breathing. Distraction time. 
“Do you like chocolate cake Margaux? Maybe we should go find some.” He questioned as he pushed the door open. Margaux sniffled. 
“I like it.” She mumbled. 
“You like it? That’s good, me too!” Taylor said, his tone overly enthusiastic, trying to cheer the two year old up. 
Margaux hummed slightly and Taylor paused, listening, trying to figure out what she was singing. When he couldn’t identify the tune he decided to ask. 
“What are you singing?” He questioned softly. 
“Butterfly.” Margaux answered, sniffling slightly. 
“I don’t know that one, can you sing it for me?” Taylor asked, and Margaux shook her head. 
“Daddy sing it.” She stated. 
“Your Daddy sings it for you?” Taylor checked, and Margaux nodded. 
“Yeah.” She said. 
Taylor entered the catering tent, spotting the table covered in tea cakes instantly. 
“Here we go, do you want a cake?” He asked, heading over to the table. 
Margaux nodded slightly, lifting her head out of his neck to look at the table, her eyes red and nose running. 
“Which one?” He asked, and Margaux pointed to a chocolate cupcake. 
“This one?” Taylor picked it up and she nodded again, taking the cake from him with a mumbled thank you. Grabbing himself a cake too, two juice boxes and a few tissues to wipe her nose and in case of a mess, Taylor carried the toddler back out of the tent, knowing exactly where to take her.
“We’re gonna go for a walk, okay?” He told her. 
“Okay.” Margaux replied simply. 
“What’s your favourite colour?” Taylor asked, trying to keep the toddler from thinking about her dad. Margaux squinted. 
“Purple.” She decided after a moment. 
“I love purple too.” Taylor agreed. 
“And pink and blue.” Margaux added, and Taylor smiled to himself at the added interaction. He might be getting through to her. 
“Very pretty colours.” He said. Margaux nodded. 
“What ice cream?” Margaux mumbled.
“What’s my favourite ice cream?” Taylor asked. 
“Yeah.” She replied. 
“Tiger tail, do you know what that is?” He told her and she shook her head. 
“No.” She said. 
“It’s black liquorice and orange flavour.” He explained, and Margaux gave him a blank look. Taylor chuckled to himself. 
“I like chocolate ice cream as well.” He said, and her eyes lit up. 
“I like chocolate and strawberry and rainbow.” She smiled, and Taylor mentally cheered that she seemed to finally be coming around to him. 
“Those are some very good flavours.” He agreed. He stopped at a bench that overlooked the main road outside the studio, sitting down on the chair and shifting Margaux onto the seat. She wriggled, moving herself so that she was sat in his lap, and Taylor smiled. 
“Can I wipe your nose?” He asked, and Margaux stayed still in response, allowing him to wipe her damp cheeks and nose. 
“Much better.” He said once he was done and she smiled up at him, a smile that made her look almost identical to her father. “Do you want some juice?”
“Yes please.” She said, taking a juice box from him and sipping on it instantly. 
Taylor started to eat his cake, and when Margaux was finished hers he offered her the remainder of his, which she ate happily. 
Taylor’s phone vibrated in his pocket and he pulled it out, seeing that it was a message from Charlie saying that he was done already. 
Taylor texted back that he would meet him where Charlie left them, and moved to lift Margaux back up again. 
“Where we going?” She asked as Taylor threw their rubbish into the bin. 
“Your Daddy is done now so we’re going back to him.” He said. 
“Daddy?” She exclaimed, her eyes lighting up. Taylor nodded and Margaux squealed with excitement, as if she had been separated from Charlie for days and not around 20 minutes. 
They walked back in mostly silence, Margaux squirming out of his arms to run over to Charlie when she spotted him, and the young father lifted her up, kissing her head gently. 
“Did you have fun?” He asked, just as Taylor made it over to them. 
Margaux nodded. 
“We got cake!” She grinned. Charlie fake gasped and Margaux giggled. 
“You got cake without me?” He asked, pretending to be upset. Margaux laughed harder. 
“Yeah!” She exclaimed, and Taylor couldn’t help but smile at the interaction. 
Charlie turned his attention to Taylor, smiling at the older boy. 
“Was she good?” He asked. Taylor nodded. 
“She cried a lot but once we got cake and juice she was fine. We had a good chat and watched some cars and then we came back.” He told him. Charlie gave him a small smile. 
“Thank you, she’s not the easiest to leave. Her whole life it’s just been me and her so she doesn’t really cope well with me leaving her. We’re working on it and she’s actually gotten a lot better, if you can believe that.” He explained. 
“Well she did good today. Actually, she was singing herself a song, if that’s important at all. I asked her what it was and she just said butterfly, and that you sing it.” Taylor said. 
Charlie nodded in understanding, clearly knowing what song Margaux had been singing. 
“It’s the butterfly fly away song from the Hannah Montana movie. I sing it to her when she gets too worked up. I’ve never heard her try to sing it herself before so that’s a new one.” He glanced at the toddler, who was already falling asleep in his embrace. “Anyways we should go, Owen’s waiting. Thanks again Taylor.” 
“Anytime.” Taylor nodded. 
And he meant it.

Masterlist   Ace
Tumblr media
“Who’s gonna tell Jody?” you asked, standing around with Lorraine and Bucky.
“I don’t know,” Bucky sighed.
“Well, someone does. She was his closet friend,” you looked at him.
“I can’t do this,” Lorraine’s eyes watered up.
“I know, I’m so sorry for your loss, Lorraine. If you need any help….” you gave her a sorrowful look.
“Will you plan the funeral?” she asked you.
You knew you couldn’t say no. After everything Asa did for you, you needed to do this for him.
“Of course,” you nodded.
“Will you tell Jody?” Bucky turned to you.
You nodded softly.
“Thank you, dear. I know I can count on you,” her eyes watered once more.
“Of course. I’m sorry,” you wrapped your arms around her before leaving with Bucky.
“Why are you making that face, Ace?” he laughed softly.
“Asa’s gone. I knew I should've stayed with you two, it’s all my fault,” you gave him a look.
“Wasn’t your fault Ace. Mistakes were made. It was Jael’s fault,” he sighed.
“After this wake, I’m going to hunt him down. He’s dead,” 
“You sure that’s a good idea?” Bucky crosses his arms.
“Yeah, I can do it,” you shrugged.
“By yourself?” he raised an eyebrow.
“Yeah, so?” you gave him a look.
“Look, no offense, Ace, but you're just a kid,” he started.
“I’m not a kid. I’m 21 for crying out loud!” you raised your voice.
“That’s still young. You’re too invested into hunting,” 
“I’m fine. You don’t know what you’re saying. Bye,” you pushed past him, getting into your car and driving off.
---
Asa was a well-known hunter in the community, everyone knew about him as everyone knew about you.
It had been years since you last saw Sam, Dean, and Jason, or talked to them.
You’ve been going around hotel to hotel, hunt to hunt, finding any hunter that needed help. It took your mind off of everything. You didn’t care about people knowing that you were a girl, or how you looked. The only thing that you kept, was who your family was and your name. People told stories about Sam and Dean, while you just stayed quiet. 
You dialed Jody’s number, getting ready to tell her about Asa. You met her many times, she was a nice person, but you didn’t know too much. You know she had two adopted daughters, both a few years younger than you, and you knew she was sheriff of Sioux Falls.
“Hey, kid. What’s up?” she picked up the phone with a cheerful voice. You felt your feelings drop, hearing how happy she sounded, and you were gonna ruin it.
“H-Hey, Jody. What’s going on?” you sniffled, taking a deep breath.
“Just have some friends over. We’re watching a movie. How was the hunt with Asa and Bucky?” she asked.
You paused, taking a deep breath.
“T-The demon…..” you started.
“The demon killed Asa,” you said softly.
You could hear her shallow breathing as your heart broke.
“Uhm, t-the wake’s today, and we’re cremating his body tomorrow. Lorraine wanted to get him out as soon as she can,” you explained.
“O-Oh,” she stuttered.
“I’m so, so sorry for your loss, Jody. I wish I could’ve saved him,” you started.
“No, no, kid. It’s not your fault. I-I’ll, uh, I’ll be there as soon as I can,” she sniffled.
“Okay,” you said softly.
“Okay,” she hung up the call.
You groaned to yourself, wiping your face, getting ready to go to Lorraine’s house.
---
“Quiet down!” you yelled for what seemed like the 100th time.
Hunters were loud. Drunk hunters were louder.
You sighed, grabbing a beer.
“You Ace?” you heard a man from behind you ask.
You turned to see him talking to Bucky.
“Nope,” he shook his head.
“I don’t get it, I’ve asked every hunter here, none of them are Ace,” the man sighed.
“Well, you didn’t ask me. Nice to meet you,” you gave a sarcastic smile.
“You?” he asked in disbelief.
“Do you have a problem with that?” you raised an eyebrow.
“Just…. not what I was expecting,” he replied.
“Now, I have a question for you. Did you ask every hunter here, or did you ask every man here?” you pushed off the table, crossing your arms as he went silent.
“Didn't think a woman could be the fiercest hunter here? Do you have a problem with women?” you walked near him, watching him tense up.
You saw Bucky hold in a laugh from the corner of your eye.
“N-No, no ma’am,” he stuttered.
“That’s what I thought,” you scoffed.
“M-May I just say it’s an honor to meet you. I’ve heard the stories about you, all the great things you’ve done,” he started.
Stories?
You knew that hunters knew you, but you didn't know they told stories.
“Oh, uh, thanks…. I think?” you hesitated briefly.
“So, how did you start hunting?” he asked you.
“My mom was a hunter, and when she died I felt like I had to take on her legacy,” you explained.
“What about any other family? Like your dad? Any siblings?” he bombarded you with questions.
“Dead. My dad died when I was a kid, and my brother died some time ago,” you lied.
“Oh, I’m so sorry for your loss,” he gave you a sad look.
“Well, it's been a while, and I’m okay,” you shrugged.
You gave a small smile, finding your way to find Lorraine.
---
“No labels, that’s a red sign,” Dean muttered to himself, picking up a beer bottle.
“Nah, it’s good. Homemade,” Bucky smiled.
“I’m Bucky Sims,” Bucky introduced.
“Dean Winchester,” he replied.
“Whoa, the Dean Winchester? As in like dead four times Dean Winchester?” another hunter, named Randy interrupted.
“Yeah, it, uh didn’t stick,” he gave a small smile.
“I mean, Asa was famous, but you’re here, and Ace is here? This is gonna get interesting,” he exhaled.
“Ace is here? I’ve always wanted to meet him,” Dean started.
“Uh, she,” Bucky corrected.
“Oh, really? Good for her,” Dean said, opening his beer.
---
“Oh, hey Alicia, Max,” you greeted the twins, standing in front of them.
“Hey, Ace, this is Sam,” she introduced you to the man standing in front of them.
He turned to you, as you felt shivers go down your spine. 
Sam
“Oh my god,” you gasped.
“What the!?” he jumped up, looking at you in shock.
“I-It’s nice t-to meet you,” you stuttered, walking back.
Holy shit, oh my god
You panicked, walking to the back room.
“(Y/N),” you heard Dean call your name.
It’s been years since anyone called you by your name.
“Please, go away,” you said, walking into a room, with Sam and Dean entering with you.
“(Y/N), please, just talk to us,” Dean said.
“Shut up. Leave me alone, please,” you begged.
“You’re Ace? You’re freaking Ace?!” Dean raised his voice.
“So what if I am?!” you yelled at them.
“No, Ace was around before you left,” Sam remembered.
“I was Ace then, and I’m Ace now,” you said shakily.
“What the hell?!” Dean yelled.
“Just stop! Both of you!” you yelled.
“(Y/N), just listen,” Sam started.
“No! You have nothing to say to me, Sam. Do you think I-I forgot what the last thing you said to me was?!” you yelled.
“That wasn’t me, I swear. Look, when we were at the hospital, we were all waiting, i-in the waiting room. They weren’t letting us go in. We saw a shifter leaving your room, and then you were gone,” Sam’s eyes watered.
You went quiet.
“Where’s my brother?” you asked softly.
They both gave each other a look.
“Where is he?” you raised your voice.
“He’s gone,” Dean answered.
You felt your heart drop.
“W-What… what do you mean?” you stuttered. You knew, but you couldn’t. He couldn’t be gone.
“He’s dead, (Y/N)!” Dean yelled.
You jumped slightly, as your eyes watered.
Sam elbowed Dean, motioning to him to calm down.
“(Y/N),” Sam started.
“I’m sorry-” he continued.
“Please, j-just don’t. God, everything was okay before you came here,” you sighed.
“Okay? You call that okay? We looked for you, for so long! We thought you died, (Y/N)! You disappeared!” Dean yelled.
“Y-You think I was gonna stay there, with you?” you spat.
“We were gonna fix things,” Dean started.
“There was no fixing things! I told you that I-I hated you! And I still do! Do you think I-I wanted to fix things after everything that I said? I was in pain, Dean, and you made it worse. I bet you still don’t know where I was going that day,” you shook your head.
“Maybe I don’t, okay, but we’re family. We’re supposed to hate each other, and we’re supposed to fix things,” he said softly.
“What makes you think I want to? Look, out there, with all the hunters, I’m Ace. (Y/N) doesn’t exist. You two don’t know me. You can stay for Asa’s wake, but after this, I never, ever want to see you again,” you said shakily.
“That’s not your decision to make,” Dean said, as you started walking out of the room.
“It’s not yours either. You were the worst father. I’d be shocked if you even knew how old I am,” you scoffed, about to leave.
“You’re (Y/N) Winchester, born on April 20th, 1995. You’re 21 years old, your favorite color is blue, your favorite book is ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’. You wanted to go to Yale, and you’re my daughter. And I love you, so much. And I’m so sorry that I didn’t show it.”
You froze, your hand on the doorknob, as your tears fell to the floor.
“I spent years looking for you because you’re my kid, you’re my family, and you mean the world to me,” Dean walked next to you, putting his hand on yours, slowly taking it off the door.
“You’re smart, you’re fierce, you’re brave, you’re kind, you’re beautiful. And you’re too good for our family,” he turned you to face him.
“Family’s overrated anyways,” you sniffled, closing the door behind you.

1. what fandoms have you written for (but do not currently)?
um i didn't rly write for any fandoms when i was younger, but i knew my 12yo self was probably conjuring harry potter headcanons in my head D:
2. what fandoms are you currently writing for?
for now, and for a long time, i've been writing for bts. i've like always been a multi from the moment i got into kpop but i've never actually fleshed out any of the wips i had for any other groups LMFAO. honorable mentions are got7, skz, haikyuu yup
3. how long have you been writing?
a longggg time, i think. i enjoyed writing fiction as a kid a lot. most of it would be like off-brand spy kids/harry potter/hunger games type beat stuff. and it was awful. but i was literally like 9 so cut me some slackLKSDFJSLKDjf
4. on which platforms do you post your stories?
primarily tumblr and i only recently made an ao3 acc. the only fic i have on there is a tae drabble that's already posted on here LOL. i think it's 'resolutely, yours.' but i don't even remember bye. i remember i drafted drivers license on there but i literally forgot to post it so it's probably gone HAHA.
5. what is your favourite genre to write?
e2l even though i have no e2l fics on this blog i think
6. are you a pantser or a planner?
i used to never plan my fics, like at all. but then i was so unsatisfied with the flow of things and like idk lack of clarity. drivers license was the first time i actually sat down and planned out an entire fic as i was writing it. it rly does make things easier when u have an idea of what u want. and then just having the idea can help you possibly expand on it and get even better ideas off of it. the events of drivers license and the order it was all written in changed like 20394803 times. but yeah, does that make sense... LMFAO
7. one shot or multi-chapter?
one shots because i can never fucking get myself to finish a series. i love reading them tho
8. what is the perfect chapter length in your opinion?
no clue. i love long stories and slow burn tho, it's just so satisfying and $wag when it's well-written and the characters are well-written too.
9. what is your longest published story? is it complete?
the fic i'm about to post is nearing 20k, and it might even surpass that which will end up being the longest story on this blog. insane! drivers license is around 10k i think, and then if u combine the wnrs couple's fics it's like 15k? im too lazy to look tbh SRy
10. which story did you enjoy working on the most?
oh drivers license for sure! i don't think i've ever immersed myself and put so much effort into a story before. it was truly an amazing experience, and i just know that i'll probably never be able to write anything like that fic ever again. it's rly one of a kind for me.
11. favourite request you've have written and why (if any?)
most of the requests i had on this blog got taken down bc they were so bad. i'm not sure if the yoongi superhero!au is still up on here, but i'd choose that one since i really had to branch out of my writing style for it. regardless of it being like barely 2k.
12. are there reoccurring themes in your stories?
miscommunication, so much banter, i used to see this a lot but i would take it out but... head bonking ??LSKDFJHAHA, my side characters being dumbasses and then my main characters being even bigger dumbasses (oc probably being the biggest dumbass)
13. current number of wips?
during the course of writing the current fic i plan on posting this week, i created like 5 wips and they all hit 5k, and then i straight up abandoned them. and then the endless idea bank google doc. so if i count the wips i for sure want to finish by like this year or summer... like 3 or 4.
14. three things you have noticed about your own writing?
i feel like i repeat stuff a lot throughout all my stories LOL,, it irks me so bad. i think i relate to all my ocs in at least one way or another.
15. a quote you like from a published story
alrighty this is a lil snippet from 'drivers license':
this is from the second letter oc wrote to jk:
"The same delusional daydreamer hopes that one day we can talk and laugh like old pals. Like nothing ever changed between us. I hope you achieve your dreams that you always thought seem too far-fetched, yet in the back of my mind I always knew you could easily grasp. I hope someday you can live a life of lesser worries and insecurities, because you rarely had any to start off with. I always hoped the world for you, because you deserve it. And despite everything, I still believe you do."
this paragraph seems pretty simple but i think it did the best job of like describing oc's emotions and realization of things,, its kinda cliche tew yas love that
16. a quote from an unpublished story
alr this is from the e2l jimin series that is going to take me forever to write bc the outline for it is SO LONG
“Would it kill you to at least show up with a shirt on?“ You sneer, patting your forehead with the back of your hand due to the sweltering sun. The event hasn’t even started yet and you can already feel your hair sticking to the back of your neck.
Crossing his arms, he scoffs, his biceps bulging out as his arms bend. Not like you were staring at them. “Sorry couldn’t hear you, too busy boosting the school’s morale.”
17. space for you to say something to your readers
i feel like i don't show enough appreciation to my readers and mutual on this blog. i have met so many lovely people and have gotten so much support, i hope u all know that it does NOT go unnoticed. i always tend to go back and reread all the comments and asks that i get on my stories bc it rly does make my heart soar. it makes my day!!! thank u all for sticking with me thru all my 3am shitposts and inconsistent writing schedule LOL,, you all have my whole heart and some more <3

Modern AU Snippet
This was originally supposed to be after Part 6 I believe?? After they got back from Christmas. It got cut and I went a different direction. It’s still a nice little date though. I haven’t touched this since June 2017, and it’s unedited. Don’t come for me lol. I may post more snippets.
------------
A knock on the door echoed through the apartment. 
“Liz, could you get the door? The pizza delivery guy forgot our garlic bread and he’s supposed to be coming back with it.”
Liz finished piling her pizza onto her plate so she could rush to the door. She tripped over a pair of shoes in the hallway and almost dropped her pizza but managed to save it at the last minute. When she opened the door though it wasn’t the delivery guy.
“Hello,” Klaus smirked at her and Liz felt her heartbeat speed up. She and Klaus had both been busy since getting back to new york and they had seen very little of each other. She missed him more than she cared to admit. 
“Hel-” 
Her word was caught in her throat when Klaus leaned forward to kiss her suddenly. Liz deepened the kiss and tried to slide her plate of food onto the table in the entryway without moving away from the kiss. It was the most ungraceful thing that she had ever done but she wanted her hands free and she didn’t want to stop kissing him. She finally managed to set her plate down without untangling herself from Klaus and wrapped her arms around his waist. 
“Are you happy to see me?” Klaus asked when they finally separated. He pressed a kiss to her temple and Liz tightened her grip around his waist.
“I am. Although, I wasn’t expecting you when I opened the door. The pizza guy is bringing our garlic bread so unless you have any bread then I’m a little disappointed.” Liz grinned up at him.
Klaus shook his head in exasperation and gripped her hips. “What are you doing tomorrow night?”
“Hmm, tomorrow night? I don’t think I’m doing anything.” 
“We haven’t been on an official date yet and I want to take you out. Would you like to go on a date with me?”
Liz opened her mouth to answer and saw the delivery guy come around the corner. She pulled away from Klaus and took the forgotten bread from the man. 
“Thank you.” She turned to Klaus and winked at him. “You see this is the way to a woman's heart. You give her cheesy garlic bread. If,” Liz paused and looked at the guy's name tag. “If Jeff here were to ask me out then I would definitely say yes.”
“You would?” Jeff raised his eyebrows in surprise and Liz had to fight the urge to giggle. Jeff looked entirely too excited by the prospect of going on a date with Liz. She had just been kidding and she felt bad that he took it seriously.
“Bye Jeff.” Klaus fixed him with a look and Jeff glanced back and forth between the two of them. Liz finally handed him a tip and he scampered away quickly.
“You got his hopes up.” Klaus sighed. Liz covered her mouth with her hand in order to stifle her laughter. Klaus leaned forward and brushed his nose against hers before kissing her again. “I’ll pick you up at 7:30.”
He pulled away and Liz watched him walk down the hallway to his apartment. She couldn’t help the smile that spread across her face when he turned back to glance at her. Liz leaned against the doorframe and waved at him. Klaus laughed and finally turned to walk away from her.
Liz closed the door and turned around. She jumped when she saw Amelia behind her. Amelia had both of eyebrows raised in surprise and was watching Liz intently. Amelia leaned against the wall and smiled slowly at Liz.
“What?”
“You two are so cute it makes me sick. Hand over the goods. The movie is about to start.” Amelia snatched the bread from Liz and headed towards the living room. Liz stood in the hallway and she couldn’t stop grinning like an idiot. She fished her phone out of her pocket and tapped it against her chin as she thought. She opened her messages and began to type.
“I didn’t reply to you but the answer is yes...:
“I assumed it was yes. Unless, you would rather take Jeff?”
“ha ha you think you’re so funny. What should I wear?”
“Something nice. Kind of like what you wore on the fake date.”
“Looking forward to it. :) See you tomorrow.”
Liz smiled down at her phone for a minute before burying her face in her hands. She allowed herself one squeal of happiness and fought the urge to jump up and down. 
“Get a grip, Liz. It’s just a date.” She whispered.
She grabbed her pizza off of the table and went to join Amelia in the living room for movie night.
-------------------------
She hardly slept that night out of sheer excitement. The day dragged on until it was finally time for her to start getting ready. After spending an hour going through her closet she finally decided on an outfit. 
Liz touched up her lipstick in the bathroom mirror and surveyed herself. She had to admit she looked damn good. Her makeup was simple but for a pop of color, she had applied a dark red shade of lipstick. She wore a long-sleeved knit dress in black, the v neck gave it a hint of sexiness without being too over the top. She paired the dress with a pair of black over the knee boots. It was winter and she didn’t want her legs to freeze. The look had come together wonderfully and she was happy with the outcome. She felt confident in this outfit.
She grabbed her coat off of her bed and her scarf before leaving her room. Amelia and Luca were on the couch watching a movie and Luca whistled loudly when Liz walked into the room. Liz rolled her eyes and laughed when Amelia whistled too. 
“Wow.” Luca sat up and rested his head on the back of the couch so he could watch Liz. “Where are you going all dolled up?”
“She has a date with her new boyfriend.” Amelia grinned.
“New boyfriend? Anyone I know?”
“Nope.” Liz slipped on her coat about the same time someone knocked on the front door. She grabbed her purse and waved at Amelia and Luca over her shoulder. “Don’t wait up.”
“If you bring him back to the apartment then lock your door!” Amelia yelled after her.
Liz shook her head as she reached the door and opened it. Klaus was standing there and Liz smiled up at him. He froze at the sight of her and let his gaze traveled up her body. Klaus grabbed her hand and pulled her to him so he could kiss her.
Liz’s hands drifted under his coat and she wrapped her arms around his waist. Klaus pulled away from her after a minute but didn’t let her go. He took her hand again and spun her slowly. She laughed and indulged him as he looked her over.
“You look beautiful.” 
“Thank you.” Liz reached out and opened his coat. He was in a tailored gray suit and white dress shirt. He had forgone the tie and the top two buttons of his shirt were undone. Liz’s gaze focused on the column of his throat for a moment before she shook her head to clear her vision. “You don’t look so bad yourself.”
Klaus draped his arm over her shoulders and pulled her to his side as they began to walk down the hallway. He pressed the down button on the elevator and kissed the top of Liz’s head. The two of them stepped into the elevator and rode down to the ground floor. They walked outside into the cold and the wind whipped past them. 
That was one thing Liz hated about the city. When the wind blew in-between the tall buildings it always felt so much colder. She huddled against Klaus and sighed happily when he pulled her closer to his side. Being in his embrace was one small perk to the cold weather. He smelled like cologne and mint. She buried her nose in his shoulder for a second and inhaled. She liked it.
“What are we doing tonight?” Liz wondered.
“We’re going to dinner and then the rest is a surprise.” 
“Really? What is it?”
“Well, I can’t just tell you.” Klaus sighed.
He hailed a cab and the two of them slid into the warm car. Liz settled next to him and she laced their fingers together. Klaus squeezed their intertwined hands. He pressed a kiss to her palm before giving the driver an address. Klaus turned to Liz and gazed down at her.
“What have you been up to since we got back into town?” 
His thumb was brushing the back of her hand and it was distracting. Liz swallowed thickly and reached up to push his hair out of his face. Klaus fixed her with a look and Liz smiled at him. She was so happy to spend time with him.
“Not much. I’m enjoying my break and I’ve slept in almost every day. It’s very cold outside so Amelia and I have mainly just stayed at home. Although we did venture out to the movie theater the other night. It’s been relaxing. What about you?”
“Well, my friend Randy is in town and he’s staying with me so I’ve been spending time with him.”
Liz laughed at his tone. He didn’t sound that happy about it. “Do you not like to spend time with him?”
Klaus sighed at the question. “I do, really I do. We have a complicated relationship. He and I have known each other most of our lives so he’s basically like my brother. I already have two of those, I don’t need another one. We fight like siblings. I’m a grown man but when he’s around we just drive each other crazy for no reason other than to irritate each other. It has been like that for our whole friendship.”
“Why is he staying with you then?”
“Because I wouldn’t have him stay anywhere else. He travels a lot so it’s good to see him when he’s here regardless of my irritation. He usually stays with me for a week or two, then goes to Elaine and Sebastian's for a week, and then to my parent’s for a few weeks. Then he goes down to D.C. to visit Elias before flitting off to his next destination.”
“Is he close with your family?” Liz wondered.
“Very. My parents consider him like another son. He lived with my family while we were in middle school and high school so he got to know my parents and brothers very well. You’ll meet him at the new years eve party.”
“What happened to his family?” Liz asked.
Klaus looked like he was about to answer when he noticed where they were. “We’re here. We’ll continue this inside.” 
He paid the driver and the two of them stepped out onto the sidewalk. Klaus led her into a nice restaurant. It was romantically lit and cozy inside and Liz felt the cold slowly leave her fingers. The restaurant was decorated in dark woods and warm colors. There was just something intimate about it. The chatter of people was soothing and the food looked good.
Liz looked around as Klaus talked to the hostess about their reservation and their coats were taken. The hostess seated them immediately and Klaus pulled Liz’s chair out for her. After their wine orders were taken Liz opened her menu and started to look it over. She didn’t know what to choose because everything looked so wonderful. After they received their wine and placed their orders Liz reached across the table to grab Klaus’ hand. He smiled at the action and played with her fingers gently.
“Continue what you were saying. I promise we won’t spend the whole evening talking about your friend but now I’m curious.” 
“It’s fine,” Klaus shrugged. “Just so you know everything I’m about to tell you is common knowledge. I’m not about to betray his trust by telling you all this.”
“Okay...” Liz tilted her head in confusion.
“Randy’s father is a horrible man. When Randy was small it wasn’t so bad but the older Randy got the more and more he and his father grew apart. At first, it was due to the fact that his father was always busy but then when they did spend time together they just realized how different they were. Randy’s father didn’t really care for him and Randy didn’t like his father either. His mother was never at home and when she was home she avoided her son and her husband.” Klaus said.
“Randy and I went to the same private schools growing up and his family ran in the same circles my parents did so we saw a lot of each other. We were primarily academic rivals and I wouldn’t really have called us friends during that time. Randy might disagree though.” Klaus smiled.
“His home life got unbearable and he didn’t want to go home so he started staying with me at my parent's house on weekends. Then weekends turned into a few days a week and then he was living with my family full time. And his parents didn’t even care. They never checked to see where he was or to make sure he was safe. It made my mother so angry. So she and my father made sure to include him in all family gatherings and holidays. When I said he was practically my brother, I wasn’t kidding. My parents raised him through his middle school and high school years.”
“Which brings us to the last few years. Randy’s father reached out to him because he wanted to start grooming him to take over the family business. Randy didn’t really want to but his father and family are real estate moguls with millions of dollars in properties. Randy wanted to make sure their hard work was taken care of regardless of his relationship with his family. So he indulged his father and started training to someday take over the company. Then he found out his father was doing some illegal things within the company, neglecting employee rights and things like that.”
“He confronted his father and when the man refused to do anything about it, Randy hired my father and brother and took him to court.”
Liz gaped at him. “Did he win?”
“Oh absolutely. Not only was the evidence solid but my father and Sebastian used up years of pent up anger as motivation in the case. I’ve never seen them work a case that smoothly. Their court sessions might as well have been a tv court drama they were so good.” Klaus smiled coldly. “They wiped the floor with Randy’s father, took his company from him and put him in jail. After Randy took him to court a whole bunch of lawsuits regarding the employee neglect started coming through so the convictions just kind of piled up. The company was placed at Randy’s feet. He told the board to hire a new CEO and that he would be a silent presence. His family still owns the company in name but it’s run by the new CEO and board. Randy has very little involvement and he likes it that way.”
“Oh my god.” Liz shook her head. “I can’t believe that.”
Klaus nodded. “It was bad but Randy is in control now and he’s cut off contact with his father and mother. He’s happy and that is all that matters.”
“Okay, well enough about that. I want to know about you.”
Klaus smiled slowly and Liz could’ve sworn he looked a little uncomfortable. “What do you want to know?”
“Are you not accustomed to people asking questions about you?” Liz wondered.
“No, I’m not actually. I’m close to very few people and most of them have known me my whole life so they already know a lot about me.” Klaus shrugged. “Ask your questions.”
“It’s nothing scandalous.” Liz laughed. “What’s your favorite color?”
“Purple or blue.”
“Okay, what’s your favorite food?”
Klaus looked thoughtful. “I don’t know I don’t really have a favorite. I like chocolate and tea. I love oranges, or kiwi, or tomatoes. When I have a cold I like to eat chicken noodle soup or grilled cheese sandwiches.”
“Favorite movie?”
“Raiders of the Lost Ark.”
“Really?” Liz giggled. 
“Yes.” Klaus smiled at her giggle.
“It’s a good movie.” Liz agreed. “Least favorite movie?”
“Any of the Star Wars films.”
Liz gasped in outrage. “I think we might have to end this date now.”
Klaus rolled his eyes at her shock. “Look, they are excellent movies but when I was little Sebastian was obsessed with Star Wars. I think I’ve seen the original trilogy like a million times. So, while they are good movies, if I never see one again it’ll be too soon.”
“Aaron went through a star wars phase too but we only watched the movies once a year.”
“We watched one every day, Liz. Every day.”
“Okay, then you are forgiven for not liking Star Wars but just because I find you so cute.”
“Well then thank god for that.” Klaus smiled. Suddenly he frowned and reached into the breast pocket of his suit jacket. He glanced at his phone for a moment and Liz noticed that it was ringing. He ignored the call and placed the phone on the table. “Sorry about that. Continue.” 
“Have you ever broken a bone?” Liz asked.
“I broke my arm and collarbone when I was in fifth grade.”
“How?” 
“A hockey accident. I played when I was little. I stopped after that.” 
“What was the first job you ever had?” Liz wondered. She hoped he wasn’t annoyed by the questions. She just wanted to know everything about him.
“I worked in a library at age fifteen. I shelved books and worked my way up to desk clerk. I worked at that library until I graduated high school and went off to college.”
“When and who was your first kiss?” Liz grinned mischievously at the question.
Klaus scoffed and Liz could’ve sworn she saw him blush. “My first kiss happened when I was fourteen and her name was Margot. We had been friends most of our lives and she was over watching a movie with me and I kissed her. We’re still friends and see each other from time to time.”
“Okay.” Liz leaned forward. “While we’re on this train of questioning, when did you lose your virginity?”
“Is that a first date question?” Klaus laughed loudly.
“You don’t have to answer it. I’m just curious.” Liz smiled.
Klaus smirked at her and started playing with her fingers again. “We’ll come back to that. When and who was your first kiss?”
“I was fifteen and his name was Corey. We were at a birthday party and we were playing spin the bottle.”
“You played spin the bottle?” Klaus laughed.
“I did.”
Klaus’ phone vibrated on the table again and he frowned as he checked the caller id. He ignored the call again and turned his attention back to Liz.
“I had sex my junior year of high school and it was with my girlfriend at the time. I haven’t spoken to her in years.” Klaus answered Liz’s earlier question.
“Have you had any other girlfriends since then?”
“School kept me busy but I have had three others since then. I haven’t dated anyone in the last six months though. My schedule just didn’t allow it. Now that I’m not traveling as much it is easier and well, you make it worth it. Even if I was still busy I think I would try to date you.” 
Liz blushed at his words and tried to stamp down the fluttering in her chest. It was only their first date and she was falling for him so hard. 
Klaus surveyed her and raised an eyebrow in question. “What about you? Have you slept with anyone?”
“I have,” Liz answered slowly. “It was my senior year of high school and it was with Vincent. There hasn’t been any other boyfriends between him and you. A few dates, but no long-term relationships.”
Klaus’ phone rang again and he sighed in irritation as he looked at the caller id. “I need to take this. That is the fourth time in the last few minutes Elaine has called me and she never does this. I just need to make sure everything is okay. I’ll be right back.”
“Go ahead.” Liz smiled at him and Klaus kissed the back of her hand in apology. He got up from the table and walked out to the entrance of the restaurant. Liz saw him answer his phone and he looked irritated. He was listening to Elaine and he pinched the bridge of his nose before relaxing. He hung up the phone and gave Liz a small smile when he saw her watching him.
He came back inside and spoke to the hostess before coming back to the table. He kissed Liz as he passed her and Liz blinked up at him curiously. She wanted to know what was going on. Klaus sat back down and sighed.
“I’m going to have to cut our date short. Our food is almost ready so they are going to wrap it up for us.”
“Is everything okay?” Liz asked.
Klaus took a deep breath. “Everything is fine. Elaine is an OB/GYN. She’s not on call tonight but she has a high-risk patient that has gone into premature labor and the patient is scared and asking for her. Elaine is more than happy to go up to the hospital but she has Matthew at home with her. Sebastian is in a meeting and she can’t get a hold of him and my parents and her parents are at a benefit. She’s taking Matthew with her to the hospital and I’m going to meet her there and pick him up. He’ll come home with me until one of his parents can come get him. I’m sorry.”
“No, it’s fine.” Liz held his gaze. “I’m not about to get mad over something like this. I will never get mad at you for canceling plans if something is wrong. This is important. We can always go out another night.”
Klaus leaned across the table and kissed her suddenly. Liz smiled against his lips and touched his cheek when he pulled away.
“Thank you. I’ll take you home first and then I’ll go to the hospital.”
“Nonsense.” Liz waved her hand dismissively. “If you're taking him back to your apartment then it would be silly of you to make two trips to our building. I can just get a cab and go.”
“I feel really rude just putting you in a cab and sending you back to your apartment.”
“How about I just go with you, pick him up and then we can go back to our building? That way you won’t have to make unnecessary trips and I don’t have to leave you.”
“Are you sure?” 
“I’m sure. Let’s go.” 
Klaus settled the check and they got their food
