seven(ish) sentence sunday!

I was tagged by @cowboy-buck @alyxmastershipper @wildlife4life @disasterbuckdiaz @giddyupbuck @wikiangela @watchyourbuck thank you!!!!!

Imma be honest I didn't do a lot of writing this weekend oskasokaoskas but here's more of the wayf fic because I love this fic so much and I'm always thinking about it. prev snippet here.

Eddie was touchy. That was not new information. Not exactly at least. Buck was used to a squeeze on his shoulder, a hand on his back, a thigh pressed into his, their shoulders brushing when they walked too close to each other, knees bumping together. But this was more than what he knew what to do with. He wasn't sure Eddie actually stopped touching him since they left the room. His hand was around his wrist, their fingers were laced together, his arm was around his waist or draped over his shoulders, he would hook their ankles under the table, he would wrap their pinkies together.  Not that Buck minded. He was getting a bit drunk on it though.

imma tag @bucks118 and @housewifebuck because it feels weird not to tag them by now oskaoskasokaosk

Henry had never had a proper Christmas.

Considering that he lived in a lab for most of his life and barely remembered the life he had before it, Eddie felt like it was his duty to give Henry the perfect Christmas experience.

It was also their first Christmas together, which really made this even more important for Eddie to do.

So, the first thing he did was get Henry gifts. Yes. Not just one gift. But twenty five gifts. One for each year Henry had spent Christmas in the lab.

Well, twenty-four, because the last gift wasn’t finished yet.

Eddie picked up the red bow from the bathroom sink and put it on his head.

Now it was finished.

He looked at himself in the mirror and smiled, almost too giddily for his own good. Turning himself into Henry’s last Christmas present was a silly thing to do. And fucking perfect.

He left the bathroom with red ribbons wrapped entirely around his naked body. It took him nearly an hour to make him look aesthetically pleasing instead of looking like a candy cane.

Eddie shivered in the cold, but it would all be worth it once Henry unwrapped him, which would be any minute now.

Henry woke up at sharply eight every morning, and today wouldn’t be any different. Eddie was counting on Henry’s ridiculously fixed schedule to make this all work.

He prepared a giant box—already wrapped—and hauled it to their Christmas tree. Eddie grabbed the top of the box and hopped inside, nearly falling on his ass from his bare feet.

He closed the box, sitting in the darkness, and he waited.

Once the watch on his wrist beeped, he quickly turned it off as his heart raced in his ribcage. At any given moment now, Henry would come down and see the pile of gifts in the living room in the trailer, and he would definitely be surprised.

Merely a few minutes later, the light footsteps from his bedroom alerted him. A smile creeped up to his lips as the excitement filled him up.

“Eddie?”

Henry’s voice echoed from outside the box, and Eddie prepared himself as the footfalls came to a stop.

He jumped out and screamed.

“Merry Christmas!”

If anything, the look on Henry’s face was worth everything he had gone through.

His blue eyes were unblinking, pupils blown wide, his lips slightly parted. Even his hair was still messy.

Henry tilted his head slightly to the side. “Are you supposed to be Santa?”

“No, duh! I’m your gift!” Eddie laughed, tearing the box apart and stepping out. He smiled when Henry’s eyes fell down to his body. “Do you like it?”

“You’re wrapped in ribbons,” Henry said, his eyes tracing every red line of silky ribbon around Eddie’s body.

“I am!”

“Because you’re my gift?”

“Yes!”

“I see.” Henry took a step forward, lifting his hand to touch the ribbon on Eddie’s head. His lips curled up. “You’re a very pretty gift.”

Eddie grinned. “Thank you. And I’m not the only gift you have too.”

“You’re not?”

“No, these are all yours!” Eddie gestured to the gifts underneath the tree and said, “I got them for you.”

“I only prepared one for you,” Henry said. “Should I have prepared more? Is there a limit as to how many gifts one can give another?”

“No, and no,” Eddie said. “Besides, I’m getting you these gifts to make up for all the years you couldn’t spend Christmas with your family.”

“I wouldn’t have wanted to.”

“Well, the years you couldn’t spend with me then.” He smiled, leaning closer as he said, “So, do you want to unwrap your gift or not, Henry?”

“I’d hate to unwrap such a beautiful gift,” Henry said, hooking his finger over the ribbon around Eddie’s waist and yanking him closer. “But it’d be a shame not to.”

Henry’s lips curled up to form a smile just before he closed the distance between them. Their lips fitted perfectly together, and Eddie threw his arms around Henry’s neck, humming into the kiss.

He moaned when Henry’s hands roamed over his body, pushing him backwards until he had Eddie pressed against the edge of the kitchen. His mind was fogged with filthy urges, and he completely missed the door clicking open before them.

“Merry Christ—Jesus Christ—”

At the familiar voice, Eddie immediately broke the kiss off and recoiled behind Henry’s body as he peeked over his boyfriend’s shoulder to stare at his uncle.

His uncle, who was holding two boxes of gifts as he turned his back to them.

“Uncle Wayne! What—what are you doing here?” he said, embarrassment heating up his cheeks.

He hoped Henry’s body had somehow covered him. He hoped his uncle hadn’t seen him entirely wrapped in ribbons and getting it on with his boyfriend right in the living room.

“It’s Christmas Day, kiddo,” Wayne said, clearing his throat. “I—I thought I could come over and visit you two. Have a nice Christmas breakfast.”

“Hello, Wayne.”

“Hey, Henry, the one who’s dating my nephew.” He shuffled on his feet, seemingly too concerned to turn around and look at them. For obvious reasons. “I see that you two are busy. Maybe I can come back for a Christmas lunch?”

“Christmas breakfast is good to me.”

“What?” Eddie said softly, and Henry looked back at him.

“What?” Henry asked, bemused.

“You want to have breakfast with my uncle? I thought we were going to do something here.” He gestured between their bodies. “You have breakfast with him all the time.”

“We have breakfast with him. But this is a Christmas breakfast.”

“Well, don’t you want to unwrap me?”

“I do. I also want to fuck you.”

Eddie snorted. “That’s implied in the unwrapping part, Henry.”

His boyfriend smiled. “Telling your uncle to leave and come back at lunch seems rather rude,” Henry said. “We can always get back to this later. At night.”

He frowned, but eventually he nodded. “Okay, fine. But you better unwrap me nicely then.”

“As you wish, darling.” Henry smiled. “You probably need to change, though.”

Eddie flushed. “Right,” he said. “Uncle Wayne! We can totally have breakfast. I’ll just have to change first. Give me five minutes?”

“Yeah, sure, kid!” He gave Eddie a thumbs-up without turning around. “I’ll be right here.”

Eddie smiled, looking back at Henry. “I hope this didn’t ruin your Christmas Day experience.”

“Ruined?” Henry shook his head. “It’s perfect.”

built to fall apart

(ao3)

words: 491

characters: jay ferin, niklaus hendrix, chip (background)

content & warnings: JRWI RIPTIDE EP 81 SPOILERS! thats it really tho lmao

summary: Jay makes a deal.

—————

It’s cold, when the deal seals itself.

The pearl is between them, Niklaus smiling down at her as she snatches it out of his hands. In the split second that they’re both holding it, a crescent-shaped chill presses itself into Jay’s shoulder, not quite cold enough to be painful but just frigid enough to send a shiver through her entire body.

She thinks she might be trembling, but she can’t be bothered to notice when the key to Gillion’s prison is in her hands, when she’s just agreed to something she doesn’t even know, when Niklaus Hendrix has them all firmly in his grasp.

They defeated one puppeteer just to become tangled entirely in the strings of another.

All she has to do is get struck by lightning. Sure! There’s a godlike doctor roaming their world and an artificial leviathan being built somewhere and the Navy is hunting for them and there’s a moon on her back. Getting electrocuted to free Gillion is the least of her concerns.

“It’s tonight,” Niklaus says, stepping onto the water. The frozen sunlight shines on him like he’s some sort of hero, the self-satisfaction on his face clear as day. Jay glowers, hoping that with all his power, he can feel every ounce of hatred and fury seething within her. The deal was cold, but now she feels like her anger could boil the silent sea below. “You don’t want to miss it. This is your chance.”

And then he turns as if to walk into the ocean, and time resumes in an instant. A wave crashes down over his head, and when it levels out again, he’s gone.

Jay stares blankly at the water for a moment, her hands going numb around her death grip on the pearl. She looks over towards the dock, once again bustling with people. Chip is walking away, his gait unsteady and slow. There’s an empty, hopeless look on his face that she can see even from so far away.

Her knees give out, and she sinks to the ground, blank expression crumbling as a sob shoves its way out of her mouth. Curling up against the side of the ship, she lets herself cry, forehead against the pearl as she mumbles, “You’re coming back, Gill.”

Thunder rumbles as a storm—the storm—approaches, the air thick with anticipation even as the sun shines down brightly. Chip has disappeared into the distance, now, broken and battered and falling apart in ways Jay can’t even see. Her tears drip off the pearl, landing on the deck in near-silence, interrupted only by a loud CLANK as something drops out of nothingness and clatters onto the ship.

She doesn’t even need to look to know that it’s Gillion’s sword, trying desperately to return to its owner.

Jay stares out towards the giant waterfalls, dark clouds swirling dangerously above them, and hopes destiny’s blade gives them just a little more time before striking them down.

crazy how my Twitter activity has been so much higher than any of my posts on here lately, across a bunch tweets I've been getting way more likes and comments regularly than before, which has always been so hard for me to get on Twitter. I’m even finally super close to 500 followers there, which has also always been so much harder for me to get there than here! I’m like wtf people actually like me on Twitter now...??? kjfhfjkhjfdjsgshfk and people are saying such sweet things about me and all the Eggman knowledge I have to share and it means a lot to feel appreciated 💜

am in the process of making Kaiser rolls - ones i haven’t made since 2019 when i first really got into bread making. 

i’m very excited to see how they come out because when i made them last, they were stunning. golden brown out of the cast iron and so fluffy but with a perfect crust. i’m hoping for these to be just as beautiful.
