#guess I’ll leave it on sad stuff and cute stuff

Aziraphale had never been to Crowley’s flat that much. He could list that one night after the “Almost-geddon” and just a few other times before that. But that was all. They were used to spend more time in the bookshop.

Still, he was certain his plants were greener then. And there weren’t so many empty bottles on the floor. The smell of alcohol had already impregnated the air.

- Crowley? - Aziraphale called. For Heaven’s sake, this place is a mess, he thought.

- I’m here - The angel found him lying on the floor, surrounded by more empty bottles.

His sunglasses were a bit crooked on his face, so Aziraphale could see his eyes were shut. He probably didn’t recognize Aziraphale’s voice. And was way too drunk to ask what a stranger might be doing in his flat.

- Hey! - Crowley protested when he took his sunglasses.

The look of pure shock on his face when he realized Aziraphale was standing there was heartbreaking. Suddenly, it was like they were replaying their last meeting on their heads. At the same time.

- Ang… - Crowley stood up and recomposed himself. - Sorry. Supreme Archangel.

- Crowley… - Aziraphale started, and then stopped himself. It wouldn’t help at all. - I need to talk to you.

He handed Crowley his sunglasses.

- Take your time - He put them back -, Archangel Aziraphale.

- Can we not do this, please?

- Do what? - Crowley opened his arms. - Talk? That’s what you wanted to do, right?

- This is not how I imagined it - Aziraphale murmured.

- What?

- I need your help, Crowley.

Pause. An awkward silence.

- Oh… - said Crowley, at last. - So that’s why you’re here.

- Crowley… - Aziraphale started.

- You need my help? - He confirmed. - My help?

- That’s what I’m saying.

- My help? - Crowley continued. - After you left me? After you chose to leave me?

- It’s not what it seems… - Aziraphale tried.

- And for what? Heaven. Of all things - He lowered his head. - You know, after everything… I thought you had changed. For once, I thought you finally saw Heaven as it is. But I was wrong. Like always.

- I had to go back.

- No, of course - said Crowley, sarcastically. - You’re the good guys and Heaven is so ineffably wonderful. Why stay on Earth when you can enjoy the holy loneliness up there?

- Crowley, I need you - said Aziraphale. - I can’t do this without you. We’re a team, remember?

He reached for Crowley, in an attempt to make the demon look at him. But he flinched.

- No, Aziraphale. Not anymore.

He had barely looked at Aziraphale during the whole conversation. Now Crowley had decided it was better to turn his back to him. That almost made Aziraphale lose his hope.

- They’re planning the second coming.

Crowley hesitated. That seemed to truly scare him for a while.

- Good - He said. - It was about time they found a way to destroy this place once and for all.

That made Aziraphale’s knees weaken. Crowley didn’t mean it. Did he?

- I know that’s not what you want. You love Earth just as much as I do.

- Not much then - Crowley spat. - Since you chose to leave us for the greater good.

- Listen to me - Aziraphale stopped right in front of him, making him look away. - I have a plan. I know how to stop it. But I can’t do this alone.

Crowley kept looking at everything that wasn’t Aziraphale.

- If you’re going to say no you could at least do it while looking at me.

- I can’t.

- Why not?

- Your eyes…

His eyes. The eyes that used to be blue, but that he now knew were a sickening shade of purple. Gabriel’s eyes. The thing that marked him as Supreme Archangel.

- Oh, Crowley… - said Aziraphale, lowering his head. - I’m sorry.

He began walking towards the door. There was nothing he could do. But Crowley stopped him, grabbing his wrist. Aziraphale slowly looked at him.

- I forgive you - said Crowley.

He took off his sunglasses and placed them on Aziraphale’s face.

- There. Much better - He managed to put a sad smile on his face. - They look good on you.

- So… - Aziraphale was afraid he could suddenly say the wrong thing and ruin everything. - Are you helping me?

- Yeah… - said Crowley, putting on another pair of sunglasses. - Someone has to put an end to this madness. And it won’t be either of our sides.

- Crowley, we don’t have a side - said Aziraphale, extending his hand to him. - We are on our own side.

That made Crowley smile. A true smile. The one he hasn’t been able to show since the angel left him.

- So I guess we have a world to save.

- One more time - completed Aziraphale, his hand still between them.

- One more time - echoed Crowley, taking Aziraphale’s hand. - Together.

And together they went. To save the world once again. For the last time.

also didn’t realise that amanda was their little baby but here’s an idea if ur up for it. amanda inherits like spencer’s smartness i guess and so when she starts spewing facts about the random-est stuff spencer’s overjoyed and then bombshells just staring at them with adoration in her eyes?? idk something really fluffy

“Shoes?” Amanda asks. 

“Yeah, babe.” 

“No thanks.” 

You hold Amanda’s socked feet in your hands. “You need shoes to keep your feet warm.” 

“I’ll have socks.” 

You look past her tiny face to her father for some assistance. Spencer scratches his neck, looking absolutely exhausted, though he’s dressed sharply. You’d spent a few minutes finger curling his hair this morning before it dried, and he’s brushed them out gently, giving him a windblown look. You pretend to take a photo of him. He rolls his eyes. 

“Amy,” he says lovingly, baby-voice in play as he leans over the back of the couch, “you know why you have to wear shoes?” 

“Why?” 

“Because growing up, your feet are very small, and very fragile. They need time to grow in proper structures, and they can’t do that if you don’t wear shoes when you’re walking a lot.” He gives her shoulder a rub. “Don’t you wanna match me and mommy?” 

“You wear shoes… different. Mom has heels,” she insists. 

“What if I wear flats?” you ask, eager to leave the house before afternoon. 

She shakes her head, crossing her arms over her chest with a Spencer style pout. 

Spencer sits down next to her with a sigh. You’re both aware of how smart she is for her age, and while it can be interesting, it’s also made some stuff so, so hard. Like explaining shoes. “I’m not want to wear them. It’s good for my skin to breathe.” All her r’s sound soft, like w’s.

You rub your eyes. Spencer sucks in an excited breath. “Yes! Skin can’t really breathe, but it’s good to have it uncovered sometimes to help your circulation and your pores.” 

“‘Xactly,” Amy says. 

“And, you know, shoes that don’t fit right force your feet into narrow positions, which can cause a whole bunch of problems.” 

“No shoes,” Amy says. 

“But…” Spencer backtracks, thumbing under her eyelashes gently. “If you don’t wear your shoes, we can’t go out to the store for groceries and we can’t go to the bakery on the way home. Which means you won’t get your sugar donuts, mommy won’t get her slice of cake, and that’s gonna make me so sad.” 

“Why?” 

“Because I love when your mom is happy. It makes me happy when she’s happy. She doesn’t look very happy now, does she?” 

In all honesty, you’re much too pretty to be sitting on the floor, tights to the carpeting and your cute black dress bunching up your thighs. You refuse to close yourself into the ‘mom’ box some may expect of you, dressing as you had before you became a mom, but you’ve allowed Amanda the opportunity to choose your necklace; a gold pendant ring with green and pink sapphires. It’s gorgeous, colourful, and doesn’t even slightly go with your outfit. Spencer reaches for it now, tugging it straight carefully against your neck. 

You frown deeply, pulling your widest, softest doe eyes. “Please, lovely girl, put your shoes on. Or I’m gonna have to be strict, and I hate being strict.” 

“Don’t fw-own, mommy,” she says, listing into Spencer’s side, “you’ll get wrinkles. Worse wrinkles, ‘cos your muscles remember.” 

And again, all her r’s are w’s, her pronunciation lispy and sweet despite her amazing expertise. Spencer laughs and takes her face into two hands, kissing “Wow, smarty pants,” into her crown. “You’re so smart! I can’t believe it!” 

You feel your annoyance softening. Fine, she’s a smarty pants, and you secretly love it so so much. You’ll just have to carry her to the car. Or her genius dad can carry her. Actually, that could be great, Spencer’s never looked so handsome as he does carrying around your little baby, especially now he’s started working out every now and then. 

“Better role your sleeves up, Spence,” you say, standing up off of your knees. “I’m keeping my heels on. Daddy’s gonna carry you, and you’re gonna get wonky feet.” 

“That’s fine,” Spencer says to her in a whisper, “I’ll carry you forever if you want me to, even if you do get all wonky, bubby.”  

Amy preens as she wraps her arms around him and he picks her up. He takes her shoes from your hand without her seeing. 

“Isn’t she amazing?” he mouths, and he means it, his eyes wide with it. 

“She’s gonna protest socks, next, Spencer Reid, and then what are you gonna do?” you ask. You aren’t half as concerned as you’re pretending to be. Amy’s a baby. She’ll learn how important shoes are soon enough. 

“I’m gonna hold her in my coat, like this,” he says, pulling his coat over her legs. 

“Like that,” you say to yourself, grinning. “Okay, you two do what you want. Can we go now? We really need to get some groceries.”

what happens when bbf!jj notices you crying in your room after none of your friends showed up to the sleepover you’d so tirelessly prepared.

he sighs and sits back on the couch as your brother walks out of the door to run some errand that apparently just couldn’t wait. this isn’t the first time hes been abandoned at your house, your brother doesnt care that he hangs around, and so sometimes he forgets that he needs to keep his friend company.

not that he doesn’t have a solution to his boredom in these times. when hes left alone, he comes to see you, his best friends cute little sister that he just adores so much.

today is not unlike any other, and so he gets up to find your room. though he notices something wrong. the sound of quiet sniffles are to be heard through the door.

he furrows his eyebrows in concern before he knocks on the door. he’s met with you calling out your brothers name in an irritated manner, “go away, I don’t wanna talk.”

he raises his eyebrows, hes never been around you crying before, but he supposes it’d be mean to just leave you to your misery, however it was caused. “uh, s'just me jj.. are you okay?” he calls through the door.

theres a beat of silence before the door unlocks and you appear infront of him. your cheeks are tearstained and eyes red as you sniffle pitifully. “hi jj...”

“woah, whats goin’ on with you?” he raises his eyebrows in surprise, sure he knew you were crying, but actually seeing it makes it seem more real, and he feels sorry for you.

you sniffle, “m’sad.” It’s a blunt statement, you know it, but it’s true. you’re devastated. everything today has just gone wrong.

“sad? n’why’s that sweetheart?” he lets himself in, sitting down on your bed now that a conversation has somewhat started up. he looks around to take in your decorated room, plus the extra two sets of blankets set up on the floor.

you wipe your cheek with the back of your hand, “nobody showed up t’my sleepover.” you murmur, “got everythin’ set up.. i decorated n'all..”

he frowns, “what kind of friends have you got then, standin’ you up like this?” he shakes his head dissaprovingly at the thought, how could they ghost a girl as sweet as you?

you shrug, “m’sure they all got good reasons...” you sniffle, “they’re not bad friends.” you’re not even sure if that’s the truth anymore. really, this sleepover had been a last ditch effort to get them to somewhat like you again.

“no, don’t say that.” he shakes his head, “f’they were good friends they wouldn’t have stood you up like this.” he has an irritate tick in his jaw now, though he pushes past it. he knows that his annoyance isnt going to do anything to console you. all you’d wanted to do was have a sleepover after all.

“look uh..” he sighs, scratching the back of his neck, “you got any.. activites? that you were wantin’ t’do or anything?” he looks a little lost, like he thinks he’s making a fool of himself.

you nod nonetheless, “yeah actually.. I made a face mask to do.” you tilt your head, wondering if he’s about to say what you think he might be.

“look im about to totally embarrass myself here but uh.. you wanna do it with me? y'know... t’make you feel better.” he’s got a tentitive smile on his face.

you giggle softly, “what about my brother,” you ask, “won’t he be missing you in the other room?”

he shakes his head, “nah, he left to run some errand ages ago.” he smiles again, “so, what d'you say about that face mask? just to warn ya I ain’t savvy with all this beauty stuff.”

you giggle, not quite believing that the jj maybank is offering to do something so 'girly'. “okay then, i guess I’ll have to show you the ropes.”

You: please let me recommend you a good ramen place, you seem like you'd need it

Dabi: You have no idea. Take me out

You: like romantically? or are you asking me to murder you

Dabi: I love surprises

You: i just laughed out loud in the middle of my lecture

Mar 08 7:18 PM

Dabi: Need your forensic expertise for a sec

You: …oh no

Dabi: It's a purely hypothetical scenario

You: alright lay it on me big boy

Dabi: If a 176 cm tall and 67 kg heavy person were to climb over a 4,60 meter high fence that has electrical wiring on it Dabi: What would the most likely way for them to die be?

You: this is not forensic at all You: how strong is the electricity You: is there a way to shut it off You: where would you hold onto the fence You: can it be damaged

Dabi: Not me, a 176 cm tall and 67 kg heavy person

You: where would THE 176 CM TALL AND 67 KG HEAVY PERSON HOLD ONTO THE FENCE

Dabi: The only points that provide decent grip surface are the hooks holding the wires in place

You: so the most likely way to die would be electrocution You: will that be all

Dabi: How would one determine whether the electricity has been properly shut off Dabi: In the theoretical scenario that you couldn't get close enough to hear

You: the 176 cm tall and 67 kg heavy person should tap the wiring from the bottom with the back of their hand You: that way their fingers curl downwards and not around the wire You: so the person won't DIE from ELECTROCUTION

Mar 09 00:08 AM

Dabi: Excellent Dabi: Gonna do some field research Dabi: Will report back in maybe a day

Mar 09 08:01 AM

You: i'm gonna be so mad if you die before you've had decent karaage This message could not be delivered.

Mar 11 6:10 PM

Unknown: So it turns out that the person did not have to climb the fence after all. Pliers are such useful tools Unknown: Thanks for the electricity tip tho

Mar 11 6:39 PM

Dabi was added as a contact.

You: you're so hot when you're alive 

Mar 11 9:14 PM

Dabi: Do u think I'm a catch 😏

You: judging by the way law enforcement is trying to get their hands on you, i'd say you're pretty slippery

Dabi: The slipperiest Dabi: You couldn't handle me

You: i'd trap you using cheese and a paper box  You: put you in a jar and turn you into spicy miso broth 

Dabi: Would you hold the jar tight at night and tell me everything's going to be okay 

You: of course 

Dabi: I'm liking this scenario 

Mar 12 01:07 AM

midnight emotions (two little lines pt. 2)

in which your stepson has a bad dream and you feel guilty.

this one has less to do with your pregnancy but it is still relevant!

toji x reader (same stuff from last time applies, technically AFAB because of pregnancy but it's also a world with sorcery so I am not here to stop AMAB people. kept it pretty gender neutral, but let me know if it doesn't seem like it.)

wc: 850

pt. 1 pt.3

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

the darkness floods your eyes as you blink awake for the second time that night. body aching, you roll over, feet fluffing the carpet of you and toji’s bedroom. your arms reach up, exposing your growing stomach to the cold air. 

as you stand, the bed creaks, and you hear your husband groan. 

“doll?” his voice is low from sleep, and you place your hand on his arm. 

“i’m good. i just have to pee.” 

“again? you went two hours ago,” you’d never think that toji could be so whiny, but it sure was a very cute surprise. 

“babe, a whole human is growing next to my bladder. i’m going to be peeing all the time for the next few months,” you chuckle, and you hear him roll over on the bed. 

“fine. see you soon.” 

with that, you begin your walk to the bathroom, able to navigate the dark hallways perfectly after following this routine for weeks. after doing your business, you walk back down the hall, but this time you find that it’s much easier. 

in fact, there’s a light on in one of the bedrooms, which you quickly discern to be megumi’s. you knock, hearing a little “come in” on the other side. 

“megumi? what are you doing up?” you whisper, seeing him sitting up in bed. he furiously rubs his hands with his face, and the sight brings tears to your eyes. 

“i…had a bad dream.” he says, his little voice full of sadness. you move to kneel next to his bed, hoping to reassure him. 

“what happened? you can talk to me about it, if you want. or i can get your dad if you’d prefer.” he shakes his head, but still seems to hesitate. 

“dad’s not going to…leave us, will he?” worry strikes through you. 

“never. what would make you think that?”

“i don’t know, i guess i just wish we could see him more. he’s always pretty busy and only comes home for dinner.” another tear falls down his little face, and you can feel one mirror on your own. curse your hormones. 

“he’s busy, yes, but it’s because he’s trying to provide for you as best as he can. he just wants you to be happy,” megumi nods, but you can see that there’s still something on his mind. 

“it’s just that…when the baby comes, will he still have time for us?” your heart brakes at his statement, guilt shattering you. 

“of course he will. i promise you that he will always have time for you. he can be gruff, but he loves you.” 

“pinky promise?” he holds his little pinky out, and you immediately hook your much larger one around it. 

“pinky promise. now go back to bed. if you’re tired in the morning, let me know and i’ll call you out of school.” he nods, and you walk to the door, turning his light off. 

“sleep tight kiddo.” the door closes with a soft click!, and you immediately head back to your shared bedroom. your face feels wet, and you realize belatedly that you’d been crying. 

the bed is comforting, but you feel your breaths come out shakily. 

“doll? what’s wrong?” you jump, not realizing your husband’s still awake, and scoot in closer. 

“megumi’s worried that you won’t have time for him once the baby comes, and i feel so guilty. i didn’t even think about how this would affect them.” you’re hiccuping now, and his large hand comes to rest on your back. 

“you didn’t do anything wrong, i should be here more for them.” he whispers, and you shake your head. 

“no, you’re just doing what you can to help us.” he sighs, and you place your head on his chest. 

“yeah, but maybe it’s not enough. i’ll try to cut back on how many jobs i take weekly so i can be here more. we make more than enough money between the two of us anyways.” 

you hum, remembering exactly why you fell in love with him all those years ago. he isn’t exactly the most open person, but he does love his kids in his own way. 

“you need to stop being so cute. this isn’t good for my blood pressure,” he snorts, squeezing you lightly. 

“cute, huh? never thought someone would call me cute,” you laugh at him, wrapping your arms around his body. 

“why wouldn’t they? you just ooze cuteness, from your thick biceps and rippling abs-” 

“i’m starting to think you might be in love with me.” you can just hear the grin in his voice, and you move to roll away before one of his strong arms stops you. 

“ah-ah,” he tuts, “need my doll next to me so i can protect her.” 

“you sure you’re not the one in love with me?” his chest is firm as you run your fingers across it. 

“you wish,” he presses a kiss against your temple, and your body heats up. you huff, feigning annoyance, and his hand comes to cup your face. 

“fine. i might be in love with you. just a little bit."

Part 2- Where Do We Go Now - Lando Norris X Reader

Masterlist

[tag list: @aundercover @landologg ]

Your POV

“Y/N I can’t give you the answer that you want to hear” Max said. “Seriously Max” I said. “What to you want me to do lie to you” Max said. “For once in your life just be honest with me” I said getting up off the couch. “Are you seriously gonna fight me over this” Max said.

“You don’t get it I want a future with you I’m asking you if you want the same” I said. His phone then rang. It was Christian calling him. “I gotta answer that babe we can talk after” Max said.

“I won’t be here when you do that” I said. “Seriously your leaving” Max said. “I don’t know Max what’s more important me or Red Bull” I said looking him in the eyes. The phone still rang. He looked at me and at the phone.

“Yeah hello” Max said answering the phone. “Exactly my point” I said. I then went into our room and put some pants on and a hoodie. I grabbed a small bag of stuff. I walked out. He was still on the phone with Christian.

I walked past him grabbing the keys to my car. I then grabbed my purse too and laptop bag.

“Y/N give me a minute okay.. sorry Chris she’s trying to get my attention” Max said. “I’m leaving” I said walking out the door slamming it shut. I then went to my car putting my bags in the trunk. I drove to Landos place. I’d hope he’d let me stay.

If not the next best option was Kika or Lily. But I knew that going to Lando first would be a good idea. I parked my car in his driveway and walked up with my bags.

I knocked on the door. Not realizing what time it was. I’d hopped he’d be awake. He then opened the door rubbing his eyes.

“Y/N … it’s 2 in the morning what’s up” Lando said. “I got into a fight with Max can I stay” I asked. “Of course come in” Lando said I went in to his house. “I should’ve called or something” I said. “No it’s okay” Lando said. “He’s just so” I said.

“Annoying yeah” Lando said. “I don’t know what to do about him anymore” I said. “I’ll set you up in the guest room” Lando said taking my bags. “Thanks” I said following him.

“Well you know where everything is.. so my home is your home I guess” Lando said showing me to the guest room. “Thanks Lan” I said. “Ignore the uhh pictures everywhere of me” Lando said. “Your race wins its cute” I said looking at the pictures on the wall.

“There’s extra towels in the bathroom closet… umm yeah that’s about it” Lando said. “Oh and my room is next door so don’t be loud” Lando said. “Me loud do you still snore” I said. “Guess we find out huh” Lando said.

“Thanks Lan” I said. “Yeah and please take that Red Bull hoodie off” Lando said. “Right sorry” I said. “I’m kidding but uhh there’s ,cool quadrant hoodies in the closet so steal one” Lando said. “Thanks again” I said.

“Yeah no problem good night” Lando said shutting the door.

The next day

I woke up and got ready for the day. Lando was in the kitchen making breakfast. I then saw flowers on the counter.

“Those are for you I guess” Lando said. “From who” I asked. “I’m assuming Max there’s a card on them” Lando said. “He must know he messed up badly” I said. “Yeah probably” Lando said.

I opened up the card. And read it.

It said:

Y/N, I wish you could see yourself in my eyes. I hear how you always doubt yourself and compare yourself to other people. There is nobody in this world quite like you. The way you laugh the way you smile. Every time I look at you I fall more in love with you.

I really love you. And you deserve so much. I just love the way your eyes sparkle when you are happy. But I hate when you are sad. All I want to do is pull you closer to me and tell you how much I love and care for you. So this is my way of showing it. This is one of many gifts you’ll be receiving.

___

“That’s so sweet” I said. “Here’s breakfast” Lando said handing me a plate. “Max must’ve done this” I said smiling. “Did he write you the letter or did he have his assistant do it” Lando said. “Lando it’s definitely handwritten” I said.

“Well I was just curious you I know I don’t seem Max as romantic” Lando said. “That’s because you don’t like love” I said. “It’s not that I don’t like it” Lando said. “You’ll find someone maybe even as sassy as you are Lando” I said.

“I don’t know if I will I mean there was someone” Lando said. “Yeah” I said. “But who am I kidding anyway” Lando said setting his plate in the sink. “You don’t know unless you try” I said. He looked out the window.

“She’s just way out of my league you know I’ve always thought that” Lando said. “That’s now I felt about Max and now look at us” I said. “But this is different Y/N way different” Lando said. “You know you can talk to me about this stuff” I said.

“The problem is that I doubt she’ll ever feel the same way I do” Lando said. “Then show her maybe this girl is blinded Lando” I said. “Maybe she is your right” Lando said.

We made it back to the track for the next race. I walked in with Lando. I then found Max and went over to talk to him.

“Y/N hey” Max said I kissed him. “What was all that for love thought we were fighting” Max said. “The flowers and the note it was so sweet” I said hugging him. “Yeah I felt bad after the fight last night” Max said. “Well thank you I loved it” I said.

“So you’ll come home later” Max said. “Of course I will” I said he kissed me. “Y/N we have meetings let’s go” Lando said. “So yeah I’ll see you later I love you” I said. “Love you too” Max said.

We then went into the McLaren paddock for a meeting. I sat beside Lando.

“So yesterdays qualifying was great but today we gotta do the same” Zak said. “I think Lando performed great we can go for P1” I said. “Yeah he did but still P2 gets us good points” Zak said.

“For once we have a car that can beat Red Bull you saw how fast we were” Lando said. “I did Lando but some laps weren’t as good as the last couple” he added. “So what he’s right we can best RB” I said.

“Y/N you had great strategies yesterday we know that” Zak said. “Are you even listening to her she knows we can beat them so let’s at least try” Lando said. “Zak have some faith in your drivers and me” I said. “I do have faith in you both I do” Zak said.

After the meeting got out Lando and I were both heated. Zak wasn’t even listening to us about how we could beat them.

“He shouldn’t talk to you like that” Lando said. “Uhh thank you for sticking up for me” I said. “Of course I got your back always” Lando said placing a hand oh my shoulder.

“I mean I knew getting into this sport I’d have issues” I said. “You still are way better than half the men and that’s coming from a man” Lando said I laughed. “You are just saying that” I said.

“No I’m serious you are amazing Y/N on the track and off the track..there’s nobody in this world quite like you” Lando said. “That means a lot Lando” I said. “Well it’s true you know” Lando said. “I heard the food is better here” Kika said walking through the door.

“Kika oh my goodness I’m so happy your here” I said hugging her. “I had to come visit my favorite gasly of course” Kika said. “Oh I’m not my brother though Ki” I said she smiled.

“Can I steal her for lunch” Kika said. “Yeah go on have fun” Lando said. “Thank you now come on you have to fill me in” Kika said. “I absolutely will” I said.

Crown’s S Class Mission - Roger Barel (Epilogue)

As usual, can’t guarantee 100% accuracy on this. Awkwardly translated smut ahead. Nsfw, mdni

Roger: Geez… I’ll need to discipline you on not feeling something whenever someone touches you.

Kate: Huh? Kyaa.

Roger turned me away from him and placed a hand on my butt.

Roger: This is your punishment, Kate. No matter what I do, you’re not allowed to take pleasure from it.

(This position…)

Kate: Please don’t, this is humiliating…

Roger: Not gonna listen to some weak protests.

He had a firm grip around my waist and even if I flailed my legs, I wouldn’t be able to break out of his hold.

It was like being locked in a cage.

Roger pulled down my underwear and smacked by exposed butt with the palm of his hand.

Kate: Ahh.

(He’s slapping it gently…)

I’m overcome with embarrassment and my face heats up.

Roger: …Again

*smack* *smack* The more his large hand smacked against my skin, the more embarrassed I became.

(This is so embarrassing. And yet…)

I felt myself growing hot between my legs at this naughty situation.

Roger: Why’re you rubbing your legs together?

Kate: N-no reason…

Roger: Oh of course. There’s no way getting spanked feels good, does it? But if that’s the case, why are these getting harder?

Kate: Ah…

Roger’s nails teased at my exposed nipples.

Roger: Since I’m disciplining you, I won’t be as nice.

Sweet stimulation attacked my body as fingers pinched the sensitive tips.

Kate: Hyaaa…

As Roger played with my nipples with one hand, the other went between my legs.

Roger: Ah~ Look. You’re so wet down here.

I looked away when he showed his fingers coated with my arousal.

Roger: Will you get like this with anyone?

Kate: No! I get like this…because of you, Roger. You’re an egoist who always does stuff like this. Despite that…

Roger: …?

Kate: Despite that, you’re…special…Mmnn…

He grabbed my chin and kissed me roughly over and over again, leaving no chance to breathe.

When our lips parted, Roger brushed my bangs.

Roger: Why are you so cute?

Kate: Huh? Ah…

Roger raised my butt up so that it stuck out and plunged his thick fingers inside my core.

Kate: Ahn…

Roger: It’s not over yet. You’re gonna say something naive like you really like me again, aren’t you?.

Kate: Aahh…ahhh

You could hear the wet sounds as his fingers pumped in and out.

He continued pinching my nipples and the shuddering stimulation took over my body.

Kate: Roger…

Roger: Cum, Kate.

Roger patted my head as my body trembled.

Roger: I’m the only one you can rely on, and the only one who can do stuff like this to you. Don’t wag your tail for anyone else but me, Kate.

--

—The next day, my body was complaining.

Roger: What’s up with that posture?

Kate: I’m sore…

Roger: Hahaha. Well isn’t that just sad? Hmm, what to do, what to do…

Kate: Please don’t touch me!

Even a mere touch would make me want to pass out from pain.

Roger: So, why are you dragging yourself around like that?

Kate: Um, I heard something from WIlliam. About how you’re the one who negotiated for Emilia Winslow to be appointed as a secretary for parliament?

Roger: We’re still a long way from women having the right to vote, but it’s at least a stepping stone.

Kate: Thank you Roger!

Roger: Don’t wag your tail so happily, Kate.

Kate: Huh…By chance…

Roger: Probably.

Kate: You’re going to do stuff to me again!?

Roger: Yeah, it’s great isn’t it? You got another excuse for me to take care of you.

(This man…)

It’s annoying, but I couldn’t help but smile in the end.

I’m sure I’ll continue to wish I was strong.

Even so, with someone supporting me, I’ll probably be stronger than I was yesterday. 

Roger: Ah, that’s right. Meet me at 19:00 tonight at the entrance. 

Kate: For a mission? I thought Harrison and Liam were going out today.

Roger: We’re splitting a special reward. Let’s go for a drink.

Kate: But that’s yours…

Roger: We resolved it together, didn’t we? If you don’t wanna, then I guess I’ll have to ask Jude or Al.

Kate: I’ll go! Ah, because…I want to drink beer.

Roger: Hmm?

Roger poked my side with a smirk.

Kate: O-ow!

Roger: Hahaha. Dummy.

Roger laughed with a carefree expression as he watched me writhe in pain.

Hi is it okay if you write a story about baby branch and Floyd

It sure is 😊

Remember (a Trolls fanfic)

Dear Diary,

It’s been a pretty quiet evening at home so far, and I guess there’s a few reasons for that. For one, I guess it’s no secret that I’m the quietest among my brothers (they say I should assert myself more, but I find that I can’t - it’s just the way I am 0.0). Also, my older brothers aren’t here at the moment, and the bro that IS here is sleeping on my lap (it’s a little hard to write right now, but I can manage). I’m guessing you’re probably wondering where exactly my older brothers are. Well, John Dory is out running some errands with Grandma, so they’re hitting the grocery store and a few other places (plus, JD DID say he was going to try and get supplies for some new costume ideas he has planned for us and our band, BroZone).

Spruce is out on a date. He ran another one of his competitions, and the winner this time around is a girl named Doreen. I’ve seen her around town a bit, and she seemed very excited to be able to be with him. As for Spruce… I don’t think I could really say the same :( But, regardless, they were heading out to Senior Frosty’s. A lot of us like to go down there for some sweet treats (personally, I think Grandma’s stuff is the best, but they’re okay too ^_^). Spruce’s favorite is the Tropical Sunset sundae, which is an ice cream that I think is made from vanilla, with some kind of fruity syrup and chunks of pineapple on top. It sounds pretty tasty, but my personal preference is the strawberry delight (an underrated flavor, but delicious nonetheless!)

Clay headed off to another one of his sad-book club meetings. He’s sorta told me about them before, but I’m a little nervous to go to one, if I’m being honest. If it’s about sad books like he says, I’m probably gonna be in tears the whole time! I guess I’ll just have to make sure that I pack a lot of tissues when I do get the chance to accompany him :)

That leaves me and Branch, like I mentioned before. We had some fun with all kinds of activities around the house.

We frosted some sugar cookies that Grandma had baked earlier in the day (Branch got a little messy with the decorating, but he didn’t mind). We played some games (the usual - hide-and-seek, tag… freeze tag) and sang some of our band’s songs together. I’m very proud of him. Even though he’s only a couple years old, he’s got a great falsetto going. Golden! I can tell he’s going to be an amazing singer one day, and I can’t wait for him to start performing with us. John Dory thinks he’s ready, too. A few days ago, he actually suggested that we should start arranging for our first tour. Spruce and Clay agreed, and it’s going to be so exciting!

As Floyd tapped his pencil to his chin, pondering what to write down next, the light weight on his lap began to shift. He immediately put his journal down, and watched admiringly as Branch cutely yawned and stretched.

“Hey, Branch,” he cooed softly, stroking his brother’s delicate little cheek. “Did you have a good nap?”

The baby blinked up at him, rubbing the sleep out of his large blue eyes and grinning his sweet little one-toothed grin. “Uh-huh!”

Floyd chuckled and ruffled his rich blue hair. “That’s good.”

“What did you do, Floyd?” the small Troll asked curiously.

“Oh, I was just writing in my journal,” he said, showing him the book that he’d placed at his side.

“Ohhh,” Branch mused, cocking his head. “Can I see it?”

“Sure thing,” Floyd replied fondly, opening it up and allowing Branch to flip through the pages.

“I write all kinds of things in here,” the magenta-haired Troll explained while the baby stared in wonder. “Ideas, stories, wishes… but do you know what my favorite thing to write about is?”

“What?” Branch asked, his eyes twinkling with interest.

“All the stuff I do with you, and our brothers.”

“Wow! Really?”

“Definitely,” Floyd answered. “That way, when we want to remember something special, it’ll all be right here.” He gave him a little side hug that Branch happily leaned into with a giggle. Then, the little blue Trolling thought of something else.

“Do you write songs in there, too?”

Floyd nodded. “Yeah, I do.” Then he smirked. “But you know, I’ve been having a little trouble trying to finish the one I’ve been working on. Do you want to help me?”

His baby brother’s face lit up. “Yeah!”

And, as he and Branch made another cherished memory - harmonizing together and creating wonderful new melodies - Floyd made sure to recall every little detail of their experience so, in that way, he could notate it in his journal for them to always remember.

steve valentines day idea… reader seeing couples and valentines stuff everywhere and it making them super sad and annoyed coz no one’s ever done anything for them b4 and on val day they just leave school crying bcz lonely 😔 but friend steve (who we r crushing on) sees and such.. tysm 🕺🏻

hiii tysm for requesting!!! happy valentines 💗💗 | 0.5k of fluff

You have something against whoever invented Valentine’s Day.

Why do couples need a day to rub their happiness in everyone’s faces? They already do that enough on a normal day, you think.

So, maybe you’re lonely, and maybe you’re tired of seeing the couples around school be all cute when you feel like you’ll never find that for yourself. Maybe you hate this day because it reminds you of what you don’t have.

Maybe you think of Steve, your absolute best friend who will never see you as anything more than that.

The two of you became close after he (thankfully) dropped Carol and Tommy and started acting the way he would’ve without their influence. He sat with you at lunch when he didn’t have anyone else, and then, suddenly, you were impossibly close.

You’re not even sure when you started to have feelings for him, the fall so long and so unavoidable that it feels like it’s always been this way. You, in love with a boy who loves you in a completely different way.

At least, that’s what you’ve convinced yourself.

Your last straw of the day is the sight of a freshman asking out his crush with a disgusting, sweet sign and a very enthusiastic yes in return. It’s embarrassing, how your eyes water.

You rush out the doors and head to the parking lot, sniffling and pressing your palms into your eyes to push the tears away.

Steve notices. His gaze always drifts to you when you’re around, and he’d seen your face when you saw the couple, the way you speedwalked outside. Following you wasn’t even a question.

“Hey, hey,” he catches up to you and places a gentle hand on your shoulder. “What’s going on?”

You shake your head and blink hard, “I fucking hate Valentine’s Day.”

You aren’t letting yourself cry fully, but Steve can see the tears shining in your eyes when you turn to face him. His heart pinches in his chest. He never wants to see you upset.

“What happened?”

“Nothing. It’s stupid, I’ll be fine.”

“Talk to me, sweetheart.”

“It’s just- do you ever worry that you’ll never find your person?”

No, he wants to say. No, he doesn’t worry because he’s found them and you’re standing right in front of him. He loves you, he just has no idea how to say it.

Still, his eyes are on you, unwavering, when he says, “sometimes.”

“I’m tired of being alone, you know? I know it’s dramatic, but today just makes it all worse, I guess.”

“It’s not dramatic if it makes you upset, okay?” He pulls you into a hug, his arms around your shoulders, your cheek against his chest. “We can hate Valentine’s together, if you want? We’ll watch horror instead of romance, eat regular-shaped chocolates.”

Your arms squeeze tighter around his waist. “You’d do that with me?”

“I’d do anything you wanted.”

He doesn’t think his feelings could be anymore obvious, you don’t think yours could ever be reciprocated. You don’t seem to notice that when people call you two a couple, Steve never corrects them.

“You mean it?” You mumble into his sweater.

Steve moves his hands to grasp your cheeks and tilt your head up. He leaves a lingering kiss on your forehead.

“Yeah, I mean it.”

is Rock/Romeo different in the japanese ds cute?

(as someone who isn’t fluent) yea in jp romeo sounds like less of a bastard and more like idk. idiot airhead spacey naive kid? the jp version also takes him much more seriously as a love interest option which stresses me out a bit but it’s also cute

for the english version of DS and cute natsume sometimes added some arrogant douchey scum bastard zaniness to romeo’s lines to idk i guess try and match rock? (who has different speech habits / “role speech” in JP compared to romeo) and of course natsume also just handled a lot of DS lines Weirdly or Not at all

for example

the wedding vow

JP:「もう一生離さないよ♡ 」| “For the rest of my life, I’ll never let go!♡” (cute)

Natume EN: “I’ll never leave you. Heh heh.” (troubling)

the divorce fakeout event you get if you neglect your husband (the entire thing)

JP: romeo thinks you hate him and he’s sad because you don’t communicate, and says goodbye.. he comes back and apologizes and admits he never wanted to leave, he just wants to stay together and you head to sleep (all’s well that ends well)

EN: romeock thinks you hate him and he says “is it my looks? my gorgeous looks can’t be fading already, can they?!” when he comes back he’s like “i know you can’t be tired of my looks already. it must just be a phase. well time for some beauty sleep” (who the fuck said you were allowed back in)

other than stuff like that, in general i’m finding a lot of events make slightly to very more sense in japanese because often it feels like each line of dialogue was either translated too literally into english or they didn’t have context, so that also applies to romeo’s heart and random events especially later events / events after marriage / rival marriage

the entire yellow heart event didn’t make proper sense to me in english compared to japanese but one small silly example from it where (probably) no context translation made the scene 10x funnier is when he has his dramatic confession

in JP he realizes he may have hurt you by joking around and making up stories to hide his feelings and apologizes profusely. protag shakes her head no with a heart over it to be like “it’s okay <3”

in EN he asks “Can you forgive me…?” and protag does the same gesture. like “NO <3”

also neither here nor there but his relationship with Louis feels a lot more familial in japanese. in english i wanted to kick him out the window during the child discipline event. in JP it’s more silly… (i still want to kick him out the window but more affectionately…) she overall sounds a lot more idk timid in EN but in JP she’s rougher and teases and scolds him a bunch (good👍). she and her two NEET cats children are a very cute family imo

overall i find natume’s odd additions to the game incredibly funny and enhance the experience in their own way (by making it worse) and i enjoy the more bastardly creature but i also think the more serious and soft romeo is sweet. he still has a lot of “what is wrong with his brain” moments in both en and jp he’s just more douchey in english

warnings - death, grieving

Why does it take a minute to say hello and forever to say goodbye?

May 29 - Mónaco GP

“Any plans after the race” I asked my teammate, Alex

“Well, there’s always the Red Bull afterparty, you know that is almost a tradition, even if you DNF” I look at him and nod.

“Yeah, I can’t handle too much, not after dealing with a very drunk Charles and Lando, no thank you”

“C’mon, we need a little bit of fun. And we’re expecting the best from you, you’re Mrs. P3 today and can finish as Mrs. P1″

Safe to say that Monaco it’s not my favourite GP. Reason: none but today it’s raining and I prefer a sunny Mónaco. Who knows, maybe I want to look for a really cute french around Mónaco harbor.

Nah

Not me at the moment

"Oh, shuss. I’m feeling confident buuuut...let’s see. We have a little meeting with Jost and then get ready”

“Cool, see you”

I walked to my motorhome and for a moment I feel like everybody was looking at me in a weird way. I ignored it and changed in my race suit getting race before the race. The reunion got cancelled and the FIA scheduled for a little debrief, weird.

 As I go inside the room, I am looking for Alex, seems that everybody is in a rush. Being in front row in Mónaco is a big achievement and being in a Williams is like touching gold, so I can mess this up

“Alice...Al...¡Alice!” Alex is shaking my shoulder. Lando and Daniel, who are in front of us, are looking at me trying to gain my attention

“What...I get lost in my thoughts, sorry” I look around and every driver where looking at me “Why is everybody looking at me? For the record, I got a shower in the morning” The looks in their eyes are the same when my mom told that my hamster died when I was 8 years old...

No

Not that look

I’m not ready

I’ve never been

“We need you in your motorhome then you decide if you want to race” started Lewis with a sad expression on his face

“What ever it is...I’m okay if you tell me...I mean, we tell each other our stuff...sometimes...I...I” Alex take my hand and squeeze it, his eyes are a bit watery, so are Lando’s, so as Pierre’s, so as Sebastian’s

So as mine

No

I wanna run from here

“Tell me already, I can deal with your faces right now as much as I love you all” Sebastian was crying, Alex’s face is something that I would never forget and his next words were like a whisper, an arrow to my heart, worst that a heartbroken.

I got up, ignoring their voices, their screams, I have no place to go, my legs are functioning alone. It’s still raining and the way to the paddock is alone, no one and there’s tears running down, I looked to the grey sky and then to my feet

What now?

I sit on the floor, looking to knowhere. Being a thousand kilometers far from home and being an only child and deciding to leave was the greatest sacrifice for my mom, saying goodbye and know, all that distance just for set myself in my biggest dream, but she’s not here today and she’s not going to be tomorrow

Not anymore

How is it now that somehow I am felling like the biggest looser?

Like, doesn’t matter anymore.

“I’m sorry mom, forgive me. But I know that I have to let you go. I'm giving up and... and I guess this is where we say goodbye, I hope to be alright, someday I'll be fine, it’s just... not tonight” I heard a lot of steps and the boys where standing in front of me with their umbrellas and Carlos have a bouquette of red roses, Yuki offers me his hand so I can stand.

Charles look at me “We are with you and even If you feel you’re alone, you’re wrong. You have 19 brothers that are going to hold your hand till the day we die. We know how close you were, we knew her and she loves you”

“She’s proud, so are we” Said Sebastian “It’s not correct for me to send you racing today but If you feel strong enough to do it for her, we’re with you, If not...well, we’re still with you, till the end of the line”

I look at them. I still have a home, they’re home

“Promise me to stay?” I asked 

“Always” All of them start hugging me and telling me that they are here for me and more lovely words. 

“Boys, It’s race time. Let’s go” I smiled and headed with Alex to our garage. I changed my suit and get ready. This is for mom, Even if i get in the bottom, this is for my number one fan. My get in the car and thumbs up to everybody. I’m okay, I’m okay

I’ll be okay

“Radio check”

“Loud and clear” I answered to Andrew, my race engineer, 

“Okay Alice, let’s do what you do best, I give you my condolences and I tell you that this is your race, do it for your mom, today she’s looking after you...as always, kid” 

“Thank you. My mom is now an angel, let’s get that P1” I smiled and the moment we expected, lights out.

With an end time of 01:13:521, I passed the chekered flag and all of the screams of the fans and my team holding a big board with my mom’s name on it and a P1. This is definitelly a race to remember. There is no pain so great as the memory of joy in present grief, my mom is gonna be forever, even she can’t call me as she ever did or wait for me at the airport, her memory and all the time she spend taking care and helping me is something that stays.

I placed the car in front of the P1, I go out of the car and put my hands in my face, not realizing this and I saw everybody clapping at me, Checo and Lewis, stand by my side and in the big screen located at the podium a photo of my mom was present. I kneel crying. Lewis kneel by my side and then hug me, Checo did the same, I look up and the rest of the boy were there with happy faces.

I look at Lewis, we took off out helmets and balaclavas. I smiled and run to hug my team. Everybody  is cheering, joyful. I run to the boys and hug Max and then all of them join

“My home is here, thank you” 

“Anytime, A” said Mick

“Lovely and cheessy but someone needs a shower” said George and we started laughing. “Go for your trophy miss” 

“What a way to kill the moment George” Alex said, he hug me and jump with me “I must be a wizard, Mrs. P1″

“First of many, you’ll see” I follow Checo and Lewis to the podium. I look up to the sky, how gratefull I am for living my dream, being the best on it. And still...she’ll always be here. I shake the champagne and enjoy the moment with the others. My second family is here, smiling at me, clapping, cheering, laughing, all the happy ways to show me how much I mean to them.

At the end

Home is  were my 19 brothers are. And I’m glad that I’m always there

[dragon-queen21]

i come once again bringing pokemon and one piece agere headcanons (sorry if this bothers you, i like making up random agere stuff it’s fun)

pokemon first: (going off of indigo league)

i wholeheartedly agree with the idea of ash and misty bickering while little. the idea of them regressing together and fighting like two toddlers is so funny and in character, and i can only imagine what kind of trouble they’d get into

Brock being the best caregiver because he grew up taking care of his little siblings—he’d be so understanding and would probably not even ask questions, he’s just like “well guess they’re kiddos now, I’ll treat them as such”

but also Brock as a regressor? i could see that. him cuddling with onix and it being very gentle despite being made of stone. also him and vulpix playing because it’s one of the cuddlier pokemon he has, just having a good time

i could see the main three stopping by parks, playgrounds and toystores because ash and misty immediately revert to baby brain when they see one

and i haven’t forgotten about team rocket—you’re so right about them being caregivers, and meowth would be a good playmate

They find ash regressed and are confused, he’d probably be all “ehhh give the kid a break, he’s got a lot on his shoulders” all nonchalant, and team rocket is ⁉️ why is he behaving like this? but gentle nonetheless

now a few one piece ones becaue i love silly pirates bro:

sanji would be a great caregiver to Nami in my opinion. he’s always spoiling her rotten, making her special candy or little sandwiches and sweet treats in the shapes of bunnies or whales or other cute things, never bashing her when she sucks her thumb or does something childish. to him he finds it so endearing she trusts him enough to be this vulnerable around him

never leaving her side while regressed; always taking the oppurtunity to take her hand and lead her around the ship or display his special cooking skills in the kitchen while she watches excitedly

on the flip side i think nami would also be a great caregiver to sanji. despite how much he annoys her when he’s big, i think she’d understand that when he’s little he’s quite literally just a kid, so she’d probably be a little more understanding

I’ve never seen any baby chopper headcanons before but i think it’d fit! him as a pet regressor also fits. i think maybe he’d be an age dreamer and robin could care for him, seeing how much she already adores him

I also raise you this: chopper being a caregiver to Zoro. he’s already a little bit easier on the reindeer than the other members of his crew, and choppers a certified doctor! who better to take care of their best mate then their caring doctor?

also CG franky. he’s so cool dude, i think he’d let you ride on his shoulders and do corny stuff to make you laugh.

ok sorry this got super long, just needed to share this THANKS!!’ have a great day dude ⚡️⚡️‼️

~This doesn’t bother me at all! In actuality this really brightened my day up :D

~As I am watching through Indigo right now I can say that Brock has seen stranger things than his two friends acting younger than they actually are. He would just shrug to himself and go along with it.

~Currently on episode 20 or something while re-watching(It takes me forever to watch shows I’m really bad at finding the time to just sit 😅) , the one where the haunter transforms as the ghost of a girl from hundreds of years ago. Anyways, while Brock is so distracted by her, Misty and Ash trying to drag him back just gave me the vibes of two fussy kids not getting enough attention.

~Adding on, regressor Brock not telling the two that he regresses and rather just stick it out on his own/ with his pokemon. Probably feels bad about being their caregiver while also being little too. When they do find out Ash would proclaim himself the best caregiver and probably start fighting with Misty over it.

~I don’t know why but my brain instantly went to angst. It would be really sad going to toy stores, knowing that you can’t take anything with you, they are always traveling after all so asides from maybe a stuffed animal that could fit in a bag or something small they couldn’t get anything. Or just- not having the money for things like paci’s a little gear and trying to save up but there is always that decision of comfort items, vs having a decent place to stay and food to eat (yes I know they stay a lit of times at poke centers I believe for free and stuff but shh we are ignoring that for a moment)

~I love team rocket so much. You have no idea.

~Been thinking about Ash somehow getting separated from his friends, (maybe pikachu as well) and stumbling into team rocket. And they can’t exact steal pikachu if pikachu isn’t there, and helping Ash look for him is just… beneficial to both groups, yup, that’s the only reason. James just picking the young trainer up onto his shoulders to carry him. Jessie complaining that “oh great, now I have two children to look after” and I don’t know just them-

~~~

~Nami being soft around Sanji is just the sweetest. Probably because Sanji is shy while small and any compliment given to her from the regressed cook is usually mumbled and said with a genuine small smile and him half hiding away. Like if she makes food for him, or he thinks the outfit she is wearing s pretty or something

~Regarding regressor Chopper, you had me at mama Robin :D

~If anyone on the crew I would headcanon as age dreamers, it would be him and Usopp tbh.

~Mkay but the first thing I could think of is Chopper doing his absolute best to be a good caregiver. Probably has a bunch of games and activities set up. Meanwhile Zoro being super grumpy and sleepy and just cuddles Chopper as though he’s a stuffed animal and refuses to let go by threat of tears.

This was 95% me rambling about pokemon and I thank you for giving me the excuse too :3

[miffysrambles]

ShadowRabbit Angst (?)

(WOOO this one’s taking a lot of courage, but I’m really excited to share this !! Even though it’s not my normal work, I hope you enjoy if you stop by to read it!)

The odd couple just finished their nighttime date, a simple stroll hand-in-hand through Flower Fruit Mountain (Macaque making sure Wukong was not around to ruin it of course).

He gently set her down on the cramped balcony space as he chuckled, “Well Li-Li, I hope you had a good time tonight.”

Li pouted as she playfully punched her boyfriend’s shoulder, “You know I hate that nickname!”

Macaque chuckled more as he rubbed his shoulder, pretending the

purposely pathetic punch hurt.

“Oo, ouch! No can do sweetheart, it’s just too cute not to use.”

He wrapped his monkey tail around her waist as he pulled her closer to him.

“And, it’s cute just like you.”

He flirted, kissing her on her nose.

Li blushed softly as her rabbit nose twitched making him chuckle more, Macaque loved making her flustered.

She tried to regain herself and responded by leaning up on her toes to kiss him on his lips, a part of her wanting to get back at him for his flirting and teasing.

Macaque’s golden orbs widened slightly from the surprise kiss, they slowly closed however as he wrapped his arms around his girlfriend’s waist as he leaned into the kiss.

The kiss was short-lived, but oh-so sweet for the two.

As they pulled away at the same time, Macaque chuckled while his cheeks flushed.

“I should tease you more often, bunny.” He grinned down at her, his golden orbs shining down at his girlfriend.

Li laughed softly as she held his hands and teased him back, “Oh hush you, or else I’ll stop kissing you.”

“Aww Li, that’s going too far.” He groaned playfully as he put his hands up in a non-existent defense.

She laughed softly as she turned to unlock her balcony door, “Would you like to stay the night?”

The monkey froze, she was asking him to stay the night? She wanted that?

Did he want that?

“Uh well, I have a bunch of stuff I have to do back at the dojo. Would love to stay Li but I’m busy.”

Li’s ears slightly dropped, which made a small sharp pain shoot up his chest.

He hated it when her ears dropped.

“Oh, no problem! Just wanted to give you the option.” She still put on a smile despite how disappointed she was, she didn’t want him to feel pressured into staying.

“Thanks anyway bunny, I guess I’ll see you later?” He grinned at her, trying to end the conversation before it could get more awkward.

“Yeah I’ll see you later, I had fun tonight.” She softly smiled at him, causing his face to heat up.

Oh, how he loved her smile.

“I’m glad Li, goodnight.” He waved goodbye as he turned around to leave.

“Goodnight Macaque, I love you”

Those three words that escaped her lips made him stop in his tracks, making another wave of sharp pain shoot through his chest.

‘I love you’ repeated over and over in his head, they had never exchanged these words before in the relationship, only ever saying they ‘liked’ each other.

They hit him like a truck, did he love her back? Could he love her back? Was he capable of loving her?

He didn’t think before what he did next, he was panicking and needed to get out of there.

“Y-Yeah, goodnight.”

Before she could respond, a shadow portal appeared below him and disappeared into it.

Li held out her hand in a sad attempt to reach out for him, sighing in disbelief as he left her standing there.

She finally walked into her apartment, leaning against the wall as she slid her back down it as she brought her knees to her chest.

How could she be so stupid? She knew he had trouble communicating and dealing with his emotions, how could she say that and put him on the spot after previously agreeing to take things slow?

She rested her face on her knees, breathing softly as she tried to calm herself down.

She loved this monkey demon with all her heart, she needed to know if he loved her just the same.

Her thoughts were suddenly interrupted by a clattering noise that could be heard from the other room, making her rabbit ear twitch as she raised her head.

She slowly got up, reaching for one of her blades that rested against the wall; she left them there earlier that day because Macaque could easily protect the both of them on Flower Fruit Mountain.

She gripped the pink handle of her blade as she saw a figure sprint across the room, knocking things over in a flash that was too fast even for a rabbit demon like herself.

“Hello Li!” A disturbed male voice echoed behind her, making her eyes widen as they looked to her side.

She gasped as she felt a hand grab her arm and pin it to her back making her drop her blade as it clattered to the kitchen floor, gritting her fangs as she tried to break free of the stranger's grasp.

The strange man pinned her against her wall by her arm, making her trinkets clatter and break onto the tile.

She struggled more in his grasp making him let out a ghastly giggle.

“Oh, the lady bone demon would like a word with you.”

She looked over her shoulder to see the “mayor” who gave MK the key to the town a few days ago.

“Y-You, aren’t you the mayor?”

The mayor giggled more, “Not exactly. I had to pretend to be this horrid city’s mayor to help set my lady free.”

“And soon, she’ll be your lady too.”

Li’s eyes widened as she eventually struggled her way free from his grasp, reaching for her blade on the ground.

The mayor, however, was much faster than her and hit her into one of the bookcases in her living room.

She yelped in pain and groaned as her back crashed into the bookcases, causing books to fall onto her as she hit the ground.

She eventually reached her second blade that rested against the wall, using its chain in an attempt to grab him.

The mayor’s wicked smile didn’t leave his face as he grabbed the chain with his hand and whipped her over into the kitchen, slamming her body into the wooden cabinets.

Li rubbed her head in pain as she sucked air through her teeth, looking up at her destroyed apartment.

She winced at its withered state, looking up to the side to see the mayor still smiling above her.

“Nowhere to run now!”

He grabbed her by her ears making her yelp in pain as he brought her face to his,

“Like I said, the Lady Bone Demon would like a word with you Fei Li.”

He summoned a glowing blue portal and pulled her by her ears out of her apartment.

His smile never left his face, even through her noises of pain.

Dear Callum,

It’s so quiet these nights. I never really noticed quiet before. Maybe I was used to it? I guess I never really told you, but I was alone a lot before… us. It kinda never bothered me, you know? Or maybe I didn’t think it did? I had training and stuff. Or I was supposed to be meditating or whatever (yeah, I know. Me. Mediating. I wasn’t good at it.)

But I guess I never noticed the silence until it became a thing. Like we are… haha.

Ugh, that’s terrible.

It’s weird sitting looking at the fire in silence though. Without you. I know it wasn’t that long that we travelled together but I think maybe that might have been the favourite part of my day looking back. After all the crazy adventures of the day had passed. When Zym and Ez would drift off but we’d still be awake. I noticed early on you’d stay up drawing in your book and you’d talk to me and it was… nice. I’d pretend I was sitting up to keep look out but… I just liked talking to you. And I know it was about dumb stuff, Xadian animals or food or whatever but some nights, maybe a bit more in the beginning I think… you’d be looking at your book while we whispered in the dark and it was easier to watch you and peek at your cute, wee ears or floofy dark hair. And you’d always fall asleep before me mumbling weird things and making dorky faces.

It was cute.

It’s… lonely now. Sitting in front of the fire with only the cracking of the sticks or the chirping of insects. I looked around for adoraburrs but there don’t seem to be any here. Maybe I’ll find some in Xadia. I know it’s super lame but they really were my little friends when I was a kid and I think if one or two wanted to tag along with me for a while I wouldn’t feel quite so alone.

I’m sorry again for leaving. I hope you’re back in Katolis now and maybe not feeling so sad or angry at me. I look back in that direction a lot. Sometimes I think my feet are trying to take me that way. But I know I need to keep going. I know I have to see this through. I hope you understand why. I’m not sure I explained it well, because it’s hard to explain something you just feel.

Like how much I love you and want you to be safe. And I’m sure it doesn’t seem that way because of what I did but I hope some day maybe it makes sense. Some day you’ll understand just a little and don’t hate me for everything.

Maybe that’s a silly thought? Probably.

I’m still going to hope though.

Just like I hope you’re sleeping well tonight. Maybe dreaming a happy dream of us? When we went to the adoraburr meadow or something.

I really hope I find one. I’ll call him something dumb like Jelly Tart or something. Something that reminds me of you. And maybe I can talk to him before I fall asleep at night and not feel so alone.

I love you.

So much.

Rayla.

- Rayla wiped her eyes as she read the letter one last time before she crumbled it up and tossed it in the fire.

Steve Harrington 

“The hair” 

King Steve

Your Stevie

He’s so affectionate, so nurturing 

He’s naturally such a caring person that he babies you a little all the time

Usually in a way that makes your stomach twist and flutter when he’s walking somewhere with his hand low on your back

Or when he holds your face in his hands to check on you

“Did you have something to eat yet today? Hm? C’mon, I’ll make you something to eat, on the house.” 

Ohhh my god it makes your heart pound and your pussy throb

Your ovaries literally cramp up for this man

Literally the second things in Hawkins calm down a little, you’re going to look him dead in the eye, put his hand on your lower tummy, and tell him you’re ovulating

He will be instantly hard when you put his hand on your tummy

And you know he’s going to pump your cute little pussy full of him, full of his cum until you’re pregnant

Unfortunately for you, today you’re cramping up because you got your period

You haven’t even gotten out of bed yet and you know

The feeling is unmistakable

You let out a little whine

Maybe if you don’t move it will go away

You’re usually up by now, Steve guesses you must be sleepier than usual

He meets you back in his bed where you’re still curled up in a little ball under his duvet with a coffee or tea or whatever your preferred beverage is, just the way he knows you like it

You feel the bed dip

You don’t immediately attack him with kisses, so he knows something’s up

His hand, big and warm comes to rest on your back, rubbing soothing shapes

“What’s wrong, princess?” 

His voice is so low and caring and you can feel his love for you radiating off of you

“Got my period…” you mutter into the bedsheets

You feel like shit

You don’t want to move, you don’t want to cry

You just want ibuprofen and a hysterectomy 

“Aw, peach,” he coos, brushing his finger across your forehead and placing a kiss along your hairline

Honestly, he was expecting this

What kind of boyfriend would he be if he didn’t keep an eye on your cycle?

“Don’t move a muscle, angle, daddy’s got you.” 

He kisses you again, tucking you back into bed, and leaving the room

He comes back a few minutes later, and lifts up the covers enough to settle a hot water bottle against your skin, nestling it into the bend of you hip at the exact right place

You whine at how good it feels

He moves you to lean up on your elbow

“Open,” he directs, placing two painkillers in your mouth and raising a glass of water to your mouth

He doesn’t need to direct you to swallow, but he does anyway

It’s not an unfamiliar command, and it makes you shift your hips a little and squeeze your thighs together 

He moves you to lay back down and begins rubbing your back again, checking his watch to make note of the time

“Alright, you can take more just before lunch,” he mutters to himself

“Here’s what we’re gonna do,” he begins, and you scooch closer to lay your head on his lap, “We’re going to stay here for a few minutes until your cramps ease up, get you in a shower, then we’re gonna hole back up in here and watch movies until you feel better, and you’re not going to lift a finger. M’kay?” 

He looks down at you for confirmation, and you nod

“‘Kay,” you mutter into his lap

He really can’t believe how goddamn cute you are

So that’s exactly what you do

And he sticks to his word, not letting you lift a finger

He brushes your teeth for you, puts deep conditioner in your hair, wipes some toner and moisturizer over your face

He knows how period breakouts can stress you out

You spend the rest of the day bundled up on the couch watching your favorite movies

He wraps you up in your favorite blanket, puts your head on his lap or chest, and rubs your lower back

Feeds you chocolate and snacks when you get fussy yk

Comforts you through your other symptoms

Lets you rant to him if you have any mood swings

If you get horny

Which who wouldn’t around Steve

He puts you between his legs with your back against his warm chest

Wraps his big old arms around you

And rubs the shit out of your little clit through your panties while peppering your face with kisses

Praises you SO FUCKING MUCH

Tells you over and over and over how much he loves you

How pretty you are, how much he loves spoiling you, how good you are to him 

If you really really want him to

He’ll stick his fingers down the waistband of your panties and rub your little clitty absolutely raw

After he’s made you cum at LEAST half a dozen times just from rubbing those light little circles, he gets you settled into his side for a nap

He caresses your cheek with his thumb, watching you sleep, chuckling when you squirm in your sleep and hump his thigh

Periods are shitty

But they’re actually kind of nice if they’re an excuse for Stevie to baby you

Rambling about the Ghibli movies I’ve seen Part 2

Read part 1 here.

11. Tales of Earthsea

This one was... weird? Just boring? I really liked the designs for the mosaics and the city, but the rest needed a lot of work. I was intrigued about the main character and found myself thinking how the books are probably better. I had some problems with the character designs and the story was all over the place. 

12. Only Yesterday

A little too long, dragging in the middle, but really cute. I loved the way it depicted the country life, the softness of the scenes in the past and the fantasy bits. I also have the feeling I should live somewhere else since I was little (I love nature and forests) and I’ve been remembering a lot of stuff (well, that’s a side effect of going to therapy, I guess). Anyway, I enjoyed the little story and the way some moments were animated and I wasn’t expecting to hear castanets in a Ghibli movie. 

13. Porco Rosso

Em... this one was pretty, but the story was weird. The scenery, music and flight scenes are really good. I was interested in the transformation part, but then it started saying things like: “Sorry only women are going to build the plane.” and then making a 17 years-old fell in love with a 36 years-old. Yikes. Just yikes. Then the ending is rushed. Started out good, ended up... meh.

14. When Marnie Was There

I really liked this one. The story got me hooked, I related a lot to the main character and everything was so beautiful (just look at that house!). It can be a little confusing sometimes, especially during the middle part, but once it starts explaining things... oh, boy. My only complain is that I only knew it was the story about two girls and, once Anna started blushing I started shipping them... SPOILER it didn’t end up well. 

15. The Wind Rises

So beautiful... and also sad. Miyazaki sure loves aeroplanes and that sort of stuff, huh? But I can’t complain: his flying sequences are always amazing. I also really liked the cinematography in this one, there’s a lot of interesting angles and uses of animation. It can also be funny sometimes (I still think that German guy ate a decorative plant) and I’m glad it didn’t dwell too much in the sad parts, even though I would have liked to see a little more after Nahoko leaves and before the dream sequence. Talking about dream sequences, that’s yet another thing Miyazaki excels at. BTW, I was ready for the sad ending, but still got me. 

16. The Cat Returns

Utterly bizarre at the beginning, took an interesting turn midway where it reminded me of morning cartoons. It’s a cute story, although I’d have preferred something a little deeper or more nuanced. But it’s nice. Not the best one but fine enough for spending some free time. And yes, I’m well aware this one was made for small kids (maybe it’s the only one so far). Also, didn’t like how they teased out that Haru and the Baron are in a relationship. I still ship him with the other cat statue from A Whisper of the Heart, thank you.

17. Grave of the Fireflies

There are some movies you can just watch once... but even though, you’re glad you watched them. This movie was a ride and I was getting ready mentally to watch it, thinking that I could never find the perfect moment. However, something happened that hurt my soul so I was at the right place. It was painful, with exquisite music, but it hurt a lot. Just like Life is Beautiful... I won’t be rewatching soon... but I’ll thank it for what it is.

18. The Boy and the Heron

Proof that we still need fairytales! Have to say it was strange to go from the last movie to the beginning of this one because SPOILERS, I immediately knew what was going on. I loved the take on trauma and mixing past and present in a fantasy world that also looked an awful lot like a limbo (thanks, Over the Garden Wall). Overall, while it reminded me of other stories, it had enough heart and stuff going on to keep you hooked. You can tell it’s the result of a lifetime telling stories and my only complain is the creepiness. It was the least thing I liked from Chihiro and while I get why it has to be done, it doesn’t make it less disturbing. 

19. Tale of Princess Kaguya

(disgruntled noises) I loved the first part. Cute animation, interesting style and adorable characters. I was having such a great time. Cut to the palace bit and the escape after the party and the story starts dragging on and totally changes genres. It went from fluffy and uplifting to depressing and sad. Why? Just why? If I had seen this movie when I was a kid, I would have never wanted to watch it again. Sigh.
