Personal Torture

Pairing: Bang Chan x female reader

Genre: fluff / gym au

Tropes: established relationship

Warnings: a lot of body soreness lol

Word count: 898

Author’s Note: I wrote this from experience – well, minus that I didn’t have Bang Chan to help me recover. But the rest was very much so written in the moment.

“Easy… take it slow.”

You whimpered as you slowly descended onto the couch, no part of your body quiet in its protests. The strong hands around your biceps supporting you were a pleasure and a pain, and when you finally sunk deeply into the cushion beneath you, you were relieved when Chan let go.

Crouching down in front of you, your boyfriend tried hard not to laugh at your expense. It made his soft guidance over to the couch seem irrelevant as your eyes – thankfully not hurting in any way – glowered at him. “You okay there?”

“I’m going to hurt you.”

He bit his lip briefly. “I don’t think you can, not at least for a day or two. Besides, if you hurt me, who is going to help you into the shower once I’ve fed you?”

Grumbling at his smart response, you tried to fold your arms across your chest in annoyance. Instead, you winced as your armpits, of all places, ached with the stretch. Christ, was there a part of your body where you wouldn’t ache after today? You let out a huff of air. “I’m never going again.”

“Yes, you will. It was your first session. It makes sense your body would ache afterwards.”

“This much? I feel like I’ve been put into a tumble dryer and thrown about for an hour.”

Chan couldn’t hold back a snort. “It’ll get easier when your body grows accustomed to exercising. I promise.”

“Did you hurt like this the first time?” you asked, looking at your boyfriend’s athletic shape. You then scrunched your nose. “Never mind, I’m sure you came out of the womb this fit.”

Laughing now, Chan patted your knees gently and grimaced when you whined in displeasure. “I don’t remember. I was always pretty active as a kid. And whilst the imagery of baby me coming out with abs is frighteningly hilarious, you’ve seen photos of me as a kid.”

“I can’t believe I let you talk me into this. It was one thing joining the gym and mucking around on the cardio machines. But a personal trainer? Chan, I just paid a woman sixty dollars to kill me.”

“You’re still alive.”

“My last breath is pending. I’m pretty sure if I try to stand up again, that will be my final act.”

“You’re going to be fine,” he insisted, moving into the kitchen and clanging things about. “I bet as soon as I’ve fed you and then gotten you into a shower to ease the ache in your muscles, you’ll be right as rain.”

“It took me twenty minutes to get inside from the car before, remember?”

“Fifteen of that was you telling me you couldn’t possibly move because you would fall.”

“My legs are still shaking. They’re like jello.”

“No pain, no gain.”

“I don’t want to gain. Actually, I do. Gain weight. That’s always been easy for me to do. Squatting down to my ankles on my first PT session? Surely that was her having a laugh at my expense.”

“Didn’t you finish all three sets?”

You frowned. “Yes, but-”

“Then you are stronger than you feel right now. Look at your effort. You didn’t give up.”

“I wanted to after the squats. That’s an exercise designed by the Devil himself.”

Chan gave you a pointed look. “But you completed it all.”

“I didn’t want to fail my first session!”

“And you didn’t. Think about how much you asked of your body just now. And it responded to all your requests.”

You thought over his words, pursing your lips together. He was irritatingly right. A smug smile bloomed over his face when he realised you had silently acknowledged his claim.

“Surely, what I did today wasn’t the norm. There’s no way I am going to recover from this to repeat that routine again so soon. If the squats don’t kill me, the damn yoga exercise on the ground will. I am now aware of muscles I didn’t know existed, Chan. I’d rather go back to being oblivious of them.”

Bringing over the sandwiches he’d made for you both, Chan sat down heavily beside you, grinning when you glared at him. He then handed over a plate before taking a bite from his own. After swallowing it down, he said, “I’m proud of you.”

“Of course you are. You’re a gym bro who successfully convinced your fitness-illiterate girlfriend into joining a gym and paying money to torture herself.”

“No. I’m a guy who listened to his girlfriend complain one too many times about feeling gross and wanting to be healthier and supported her in making small changes. Whether you never go again or not, I’m proud of you for putting yourself first like that.”

Placing down your sandwich, you took in his genuine expression, a small proud smile crossing your lips. “I didn’t fail.”

“No, you didn’t.”

“My butt is going to look amazing after conquering squats, isn’t it?”

He grinned. “That’s my girl.”

“Are you sure you’ll be proud of me if I never go again?”

“Well, you’ve already paid for your next two sessions, so…”

You groaned loudly, wincing when your body disagreed with your efforts. Having a cute butt wasn’t worth all this agony.

“What doesn’t kill you, makes you stronger,” Chan attempted, though he could tell you were beyond inspirational quotes now.

“Kill me now. It’ll be less painful.”

Stress Relief | Katsuki Bakugo x Reader

Fandom: My Hero Academia

Ship: Katsuki Bakugo x AFAB Reader 💋

Genre: Smut, Fluff, Romance, Hurt/Comfort

Summary: A quick unedited one shot where the reader is stressed and Katsuki decides to help her de-stress :) Nothing complicated here, just sexy vibes.

CW: MDNI!, A18+, kissing, romance, sexual tension, spicy scenes, fingering, lemon, Smut, Dirty Talk, Hurt/Comfort

It’s dark in your dorm when Katsuki Bakugo slips through the unlocked door. You’re starting to fall asleep when you see the door open a crack, the light from the hallway illuminating his pale features with its glow.

You’re exhausted and not in the mood to talk to him, not after the day you had. You glare at him from your bed as he quietly shuts the door behind you.

“Come on, babe. Don’t give me that look.” He groans, padding over to your bed and slipping beneath the covers beside you. “You know that I can’t take it easy on you when we spar. You don’t get special treatment in class just because you’re my girlfriend.”

You turn away from him to face the wall, ignoring him. Not only had Katsuki hit you with an over the top, uncalled for special move in training – it was a move you had never seen before. You had thought the two of you shared absolutely everything. You were almost at the end of your third year at UA, chasing graduation. For the past year and a half, you two had been daydreaming about starting a hero agency together. If Katsuki had hid an insane special move from you only to bring it out in a simple training match…what else was he hiding?

“I know that look.” He says as he wraps his arms around you. He’s so strong and sturdy you can’t help but melt into him. “I didn’t tell you about the move because I wanted it to be a surprise. I thought you would be more excited about it, honestly. Come on, babe. Don’t be mad.”

You sigh, your whole body sore from where he walloped you with his overenthusiastic explosion earlier that day. Finally, you acknowledge him. “I’ve showed you all of my special moves – even the secret ones. And yet…you kept this insane move a secret even from me. Sometimes I don’t think you trust me.”

He’s quiet for a moment, rolling your words around in his mind. When he does speak, there’s a tinge of hurt in his voice. A vulnerability that only a few people will ever hear form Katsuki Bakugo. “Babe…I didn’t realize I was keeping it a secret. I was really excited to show you. I don’t want you to feel like I don’t trust you. You’re the only person who knows absolutely all of me. You gotta believe that.” He squeezes his arms lightly around you, reinforcing the words.

You huff with frustration. “Yeah, I know, okay? I’m just really achy and pissed off that you decided to debut some flashy move while fighting me. Why couldn’t you unleash it on Kaminari or Kirishima?”

He buries his face in the back of your neck. “I was tryin’ to impress ya, is all.”

“I’d be a lot more impressed if you didn’t blast the hell out of me during a training exercise.” You try to scoot away from him and end up stretching out your muscles at an odd angle. You cry out softly at the pain.

“Did I hurt ya that bad?” He says, concern lacing his words. “You’re made of such tough stuff…but maybe I took things a little too far in the ring.” His hands run across your body soothingly, trying to rub out any aches and pains that he may have caused during your sparring.

“It’s fine. Honestly, it was a really stressful day and your new ‘special move’ was just the icing on top of the cake. I just need it to be the weekend already.” You sigh out. The past few weeks have been so stressful at school and at your work study. You’re tired and overworked, and you could really just use a break. Katsuki unleashing the full force of his explosion hell on you in class was definitely not something you were mentally or physically prepared for – all you want to do now is rest.

“I know you’ve been real stressed lately. Sorry if I added to it.” He mumbles into your shoulder, leaving light kisses along your skin. You shiver when you feel the tip of his tongue dart out to trace a shape on the sensitive skin of your clavicle.

“Hey…you know what we haven’t done in a while?” His voice suddenly brightens and his hand snakes down to grip your stomach lightly over your shirt. “I can think of a great way to give you a good dose of stress relief.” He smooths his hand down the plane of your stomach and finds the hem of your shirt, dipping underneath the thin fabric so that he can fan out his fingers across your delicate skin. “Let me take your stress away with my fingertips, sweetheart.” He begins to run his fingers back and forth under the waistband of your sweatpants. The sensual touch causes a sparking sensation to gather down in your core. Everywhere he touches, goose bumps pop up on your skin.

“…Kats.” You say, warningly. The walls of the dorm are notoriously thin, and you don’t want to be on the receiving end of one of Mr. Aizawa’s lectures about safe sex, creating a culture of respect, the dorm rules, etc.

“Just keep quiet. I’ll make it quick as I can. No one ever has to know.” He leans in and starts to plant slow, open mouthed kisses along your neck, his fingers dipping lower and into dangerous territory. He brings the palm of his hand to rest right above your panties and slowly starts to circle your clit from over the delicate cotton fabric.

“Oh.” You breathe out, your body coming back to life as Katsuki touches you. He’s always so direct, so sure of himself. His approach to sex is reflective of that – don’t beat around the bush, just get to the heart of the pleasure.

“Yeah?” He whispers wetly before nipping at your earlobe. “You like when I touch you here?”

“Duh.” You hiss through your teeth. Katsuki pulls his hand away from your pussy and you almost cry out at the loss of contact. He brings his ring and middle fingers to his mouth and sucks, coating them in a thick sheen of saliva. He then moves to touch you again, this time sliding his hand beneath your panties for better access. When his warm, wet fingers hit your clit – your body absolutely lights up. All aches and pains are gone – its just you, Katsuki, and his magical fingers.

He starts out slow, circling around your clit until your grinding your butt back into him. He loves this – spooning you while he gets you off. He loves a good power dynamic, and this is no exception. In this position, Katsuki has most of the control. He likes that you know it, too.

He circles your clit lazily for a while, letting you get a feel for it. As you start to buck into him, he decides to speed things up, dipping his fingers low so he can gather some slick from your entrance before sliding them back up to work more on your clit. Within seconds you’re begging for him to get inside you, and he obliges – slipping a single digit into you slowly while giving your clit the attention it deserves with his thumb. He lets you hump his hand, finding the angles that work best with your body and causing you to see stars.

It’s when he slips a second finger into you that you start to get close. You feel his cock harden against the curve of your ass, eager to please. He starts leaving a trail of hot hickies along your shoulder – sucking in your sensitive skin between his sharp teeth and then kissing over marks he leaves behind. The combination of sensations is far too much, and you feel yourself get closer and closer to falling off the edge. The way Katsuki's fingers are slipping, sliding, stretching...it's far too much. You want to groan in pleasure, but you keep your mouth shut as best you can.

His fingers pump in and out of you with practiced skill, and you clap a hand over your mouth to keep yourself from moaning out his name for all of the dorm to hear.

“Kats!” You say in a muffled voice from behind your hand. “Kats, I’m close.”

That’s all he needs to hear. He brings his fingers out of you to focus on your clit for a bit, drawing circles and triangles and figure eights and whatever other fuckin’ shapes he knows how to make around your sensitive bundle of nerves until your legs are shaking. Then, when he feels he’s gotten you hot and bothered enough, he slides two fingers deep into your cunt, flicking them in an attempt to hit your G spot.

And holy shit he does.

Katsuki hits that delicious spongy spot deep inside you and your body jerks with pleasure. He smirks at the reaction, proud of himself for figuring you out so quickly. He hits the spot again and again and again until your pussy tenses up and falls into one of the finest orgasms you’ve had in your life. You cum so easily, your whole body shaking as he takes you apart with nothing but his fingertips. The waves of the orgasm hit you full force, your body tingling and jerking in time with his targeted movements. He lets you ride out your orgasm, mumbling quiet praise into your ear as you grind through your high.

“That’s my good girl, so perfect for me. Cumming on my fingertips so nicely. Fuck babe. Fuck you’re gorgeous. Keep cumming for me please.”

His words are just as sexy as his hand down your pants, and you can’t believe how lucky you are to have landed someone as hot as Katsuki.

When you finally finish, he slides his hand out of your panties and pulls you close. He plants a hundred kisses across your neck and shoulder, happy to have been of service. You lay in silence for a moment – you catching your breath, him glowing with pride at a job well done.

“Did I manage to take away some of your stress?” He whispers cheekily. The damn idiot is so proud of himself, as always.

“S-sure.” You try to sound calm, cool and collected but the break in your voice is enough. Katsuki knows that he achieved exactly what he set out to do. You melt back into his chest and start to doze. What a day it's been! You're too tired to speak anymore, but you manage to squeak out: “Thanks babe. Love you.”

“Love ya, too.” He says, settling in under the covers and planting a last kiss on your back. “But I’m still not taking it easy on ya during training.”

“I wouldn’t have it any other way.” Is the last thing you say before drifting off into a sound sleep.

Some replies! One about drawing, another one about Ortho, and then some other TWST ones.

Anonymous asked:

Hello Ryu! I hope you and Katsu are doing well. I wanted to ask you: how do you manage to post daily? what motivates you? I just admire how you manage to post quality content every day, I enjoy everything so much! and another question: how do you fight hand pain? I do draw daily, but I end up with hand/wrist cramps and it's worrying me, what would you recommend? Amazing art as always!

Hi Anon! Thank you so much for your kind words.

I actually talked about our motivation and the ungodly amount of sketches (lol) that I produce here! But in short, I’ve always loved drawing, and I spend the majority of my time drawing. Not everything that we post daily is new stuff: we have a big backlog of sketches, and Katsu helps me to manage it. Since I can focus on drawing and Katsu takes care of posting, it’s actually feels easier.

As for the second question, the most important main thing is PLEASE don’t overwork your hand! The moment you feel wrist cramps, take a break immediately, or if the pain is too much, better stop for the day, even if you really want to continue :( I am lucky to have pretty good stamina when it comes to this, but this is also partially because I stop immediately if I start to feel tired, plus never draw after my lengthy timeslot dedicated to drawing is over.

Here are a couple of more things that could possibly help:

Pay attention to the way you move your arm when you draw. Prioritise moving your elbow and using your entire arm instead of just moving your hand and wrist. Also try not to squeeze your pen too much, as it tends to make muscles tenser, at least in my experience.

Take short breaks every once in a while to stretch and do exercises for your wrist. These work nicely, but I also love to just… not do anything with my hand at all for like 5 minutes, to let muscles relax a bit.

If your muscles are tense after drawing, warming them up also makes it feel better. I just hold my wrist under warm water lol But there are better ways to do it.

Oh, and check if you do something else with your hand that might also put pressure on it during the day. If you use PC, for example, and sit in front of a desk, then your elbow should be on its surface (the reason for that is in my first point of this list), otherwise you strain your wrist muscles with that position. This is just an example, but it might help to find other reasons why your hand can be tired even before you start drawing. If not, that’s also fine! Drawing is hard enough to do that kind of damage on its own.

If nothing helps and you still feel cramps, you should of course talk to your doctor about it. Maybe they’ll have better advice than I do. Please be very careful with your hand, these muscles are not the ones that should feel slightly sore after a workout unlike a bunch of others, this strain (and pain) can do irreversible damage to your hand and should not be treated lightly. It’s better to take frequent breaks and draw later than to lose the ability to draw (and do other everyday things along with it) at all.

Take care of yourself, Anon <3

Anonymous asked:

wow a whole shroudcest ask post!!! kissing each of the askers consensual and platonically on the mouth, i love that y'all in this fandom. also agree, Ortho should use his beams as a treat when not allowed to join mature content that has first years, it makes me really sad for him!! Epel is super small and he gets to join????? sometimes he's even ''aged up'' (and stays short and small, i see that) lmao like what, Ortho can't be aged up too? the double standards are staggering

sometimes i assume he's just hard to draw, it's fair when mecha and armor are difficult for some people and i often see those two in won't draw lists in commissions, but also?? you don't have to draw when writing?? at least in writing, he should show up more, i'm doing my part at least in the orthoreader and orthooc tags on ao3. his crotch being bare is a feature, not a flaw.

(related to this post)

I am so happy and shocked that so many people wrote such long and lovely messages!! Everyone GETS IT…

Yeah, Epel also gets to join all the time, but somehow Ortho isn’t! This absolutely isn’t fair lol He would be super pissed about it.

I agree with you though that it is related to his design. Of course, the majority of people who complain about Ortho don’t even attempt to draw him as they aren’t artists, but I think a lot of aspects of his appearance are somewhat… “off-putting” to them? It feels like it’s a very strong word, but: his height, his “heels”, the waist and crotch parts of his gear, plus he isn’t very manly and ikemen-like, instead his appeal is that he is a cutie and sometimes a “kusogaki” type. This is why some people just don’t like him at all, and some people don’t like him and cover it up by saying “awww nooo he is just a baby, look at him, he is a kid right?”

I am happy you’re providing people with written Ortho-related content, Anon 💪 He would be so proud and grateful!

Anonymous asked:

Your chibi lillia just looks so adorable, he looks so chewable

Hehehe thank youuu!! Please chew on his chibi cheeks.

irregardlessly-tish asked:

Have you seen the new design that was announced? (Trying to keep it vague in case people don't know which character it is, I don't want to ruin the surprise lol) From an artist point of view, what do you think? I was kind of disappointed by it… I'm not sure if it's Yana's design or not, her characters have so much personality but this one looks just… so generic? Love his suit, the glasses are a great touch to represent this character's eyes (orlackthereof) but everything else feels so uninspired in my opinion. I know this is the pretty anime boy villain game but this one is just too much of a pretty anime boy and I hate this fluffy pretty anime boy hair...

I have! And I will spoil it so please don’t read my reply if you don’t want to know who it is lol

To be completely honest, I am not sure what to think yet; I kind of want to see the full design and also to see him in action. He does feel very different from Rollo and Fellow&Gidel, and maybe this is one of the reasons why he might feel underwhelming: those guys have very colourful designs and a lot of accessories, plus somewhat clearer silhouette (Rollo’s hat is iconic, Fellow also has a hat and fox ears, and that makes them very distinct right away), and the new guy… it’s hard to tell yet, but I think it’s kind of difficult to make a skeleton design work on the same level both in terms of his monochrome colour scheme and the fact that he is, in fact, a skeleton-like creature.

I know there are a lot of jokes about Gojo that people make (I am one of those people), and I think that some people aren’t as excited for the new guy because of that (the feeling that we’ve seen him around a lot already, because young!Gojo was everywhere very recently). But I do agree with you: the glasses are indeed a very good touch and a very smart addition design-wise.

I am also personally excited to see Undertaker vibes from him, but that’s personal lol

So yeah, I’m not sure for now. I really want to see more of him before making proper judgment. I absolutely see your point though. I think if he turns out to be a fun character, his design elements will also become fun and enjoyable, just in a different way.

The Caged Tiger | Part 6

Prev | Masterpost | Next

CW: captivity, referenced torture (sleep deprivation, starvation, forced to fight), dehumanization

Nightmares plague Ash for . . . days? Weeks? Time has truly become meaningless to him. A cycle of sick images swim through his mind each night—if it can even be called that—which wake him in a cold sweat. He is run ragged most days, sparring uselessly against Owen; every time he seems to have an upper hand, Owen outsmarts him, outpaces him, outmaneuvers him. With his friends, taking Owen down was almost easy, but alone, even with the benefit of his hybrid form . . . it gets more difficult each time.

Ozmund tries every cruelty at his disposal to elicit the results he wants. Some nights, Ash isn’t allowed to sleep at all; instead, he’s forced to push his body to its limits, exercising until his muscles give way beneath him. On other weeks, he’s given only pale vegetable broth to sustain himself—a punishment, he assumes, perhaps to make him angry enough to fight harder. Even his contact with Faye, the only kind face he’s seen in months, is lessened. Though after she’d bristled with disgust at his tiger form, it almost hurts worse to see her than not. Most days, he sits alone in the dark until Ozmund or Owen drag him to the sparring arena once again. Hsa, too, seems to have disappeared, leaving him utterly alone.

After one particularly rough day of fighting, Ash readily collapses into fitful sleep. But when he awakes, something feels off. The dank, stale air of the dungeon is replaced with a gentle breeze, the crisp scent of pine and earth carried along on the wind. Ash blinks against the bright light. Why’s it so bright? What’s going on? As his senses tune back in to the world around him, he realizes he’s not in his cell anymore.

The heavy weight of the collar around his neck is gone; cool air tickles his throat and soothes the tender skin. Beneath him, the dewy grass caresses his sore, naked body. He scrambles to his feet—no chains, no manacles, no binding magic—and digs his toes into the soft, damp soil. For the first time in what feels like months, he breathes in deeply, his chest expanding to its full limit without restraint. Although his eyes struggle to adjust to the intense sunlight, he glances around himself: lush green trees surround him in every direction, and by his feet, he finds his beloved spear. He snatches it from the ground, clutching it to his chest for a moment like a treasured friend. Am I . . . free? Is this real? Looking at his hands, the burn scars around his wrists are still there. If this was a dream, then surely . . .

“So you’re finally awake, huh?”

His stomach drops low in his gut. Ash spins to face the voice, positioning the spear to protect himself. Owen approaches through the trees, hands held aloft as if calming a wild animal.

"Easy there, big fella. No need to get . . . stabby. I'm here to make a deal."

Suspicious, Ash lowers his spear only partly.

"Close enough, I guess," Owen shrugs. "Listen, this is what you wanted, right? Freedom? One last go with me, and you can have it—"

At the word—freedom—Ash's heart leaps up into his throat. It's too good to be true . . . Why would Owen help me? Why would they let me go?

"—As long as you can catch me. If you do, tear me to shreds, burn my body; do whatever it takes. This whole 'living forever' thing is getting pretty old. Destroy me beyond repair, and maybe I won't come back this time. Then you can go home, or back to your friends, whatever floats your boat. Ozmund will never be the wiser—and we both get what we want."

Of course there would be a catch. Nothing is ever straightforward with Owen. Try as he might, though, Ash can't find a loophole Owen could exploit. And after seeing how little Ozmund values Owen beyond his incredibly hearty constitution, Ash is inclined to believe him. Or perhaps his desperation has simply reached its peak.

Ash clears his throat, his voice raspy from disuse. "And what if I fail?"

"Then we both go back to our miserable lives being lab rats. Look, take it or leave it; it's up to you. And before you think of running off without keeping your end of the bargain, you should know that you can't get out of here without this." He holds up a small silver ring. "Think of it like a magic key—without this ring, you'll be locked in this forest forever."

As much as Ash is distrustful of Owen, he can't deny the appeal of the offer. All he has to do is rely on his instincts—be the hunter he was born to be—and he can finally be free. All his suffering wouldn't be in vain: he's stayed alive long enough to find a way out! Even if the tiny skeptical voice in his head screams in protest . . . he has to try.

"Deal."

After giving Owen a brief headstart, Ash pulls in a deep, cleansing breath. His scent is faint, but easily identifiable—Ash quickly picks up the trail and begins his pursuit. Never has a hunt held such high stakes for him; even living off the land and hunting to survive, he's never felt such intense desperation. I can’t let him get away. I can’t fail this time. Come on, Ash, you can do this.

He stalks the path of boot prints Owen left in the damp earth. Memories ripple through his skin, a searing nostalgic ache; every hunt with Kane, every playful chase with Evius, he can feel it all like the sunlight dappling through the trees. Although the forest is unfamiliar to him, the elements themselves feel like old friends—the towering trees and the prickling grass beneath his feet are companions he’s always known. With that confidence, emboldened by that comfort, he lets his fear roll off of him.

The stretch of his muscles is satisfying and liberating as he leaps into the branches above. Like his tiger ancestors, he prowls the canopy, noting every rustling leaf and snapping twig on the forest floor below. He is calm, collected; his rage has no place here. Not yet, anyway. Not until I find him . . .

As the sun rises higher in the sky, Owen’s scent begins to fade. Just as Ash thinks he’s lost the trail, a voice calls out from deeper in the woods.

“Help! Ash!”

Is that . . . Mouse?!

The Power of Stretching: More Than Just Movement

Imagine waking up in the morning, your body stiff from a night of sleep. Instinctively, you stretch—arms reaching overhead, legs straightening, and your back arching gently. In that moment, your muscles loosen, your mind feels clearer, and you are ready to start the day. Stretching is such a natural and simple act, but its effects reach far beyond just physical movement. It’s a powerful tool for both body and mind, one that we often take for granted.

Stretching is a way to connect with your body. It helps release tension, increases flexibility, and keeps your muscles and joints healthy. Whether you’re an athlete or someone who sits at a desk all day, stretching is crucial for maintaining mobility and preventing injury. But stretching isn’t just for fitness enthusiasts—anyone can benefit from the practice.

There’s something almost magical about how stretching works. It increases blood flow to your muscles, making them more pliable and ready for movement. This is why athletes stretch before and after exercise, preparing their bodies for action and helping them recover afterward. But even if you’re not gearing up for a workout, stretching can be a great way to reset your body throughout the day. A few minutes of gentle stretching can relieve stress, boost circulation, and improve your posture.

Speaking of posture, the modern world has created a new set of challenges for our bodies. We spend hours sitting in front of computers, hunched over phones, or slouched on couches. This can lead to tight muscles and poor posture, which in turn causes discomfort and pain. Stretching helps counteract the effects of a sedentary lifestyle by lengthening muscles and aligning the body properly. Simple stretches, like standing up and reaching toward the sky or bending forward to touch your toes, can make a world of difference.

Stretching is not just a physical activity—it’s also deeply tied to mental well-being. Taking the time to stretch can be a form of mindfulness, a chance to slow down and pay attention to your body. Many people find that stretching helps reduce anxiety and promote relaxation. The act of focusing on your breath, feeling the tension release from your muscles, and being present in the moment has a calming effect on the mind. It’s no surprise that stretching is a central part of yoga, a practice that connects physical movement with mental clarity and peace.

From a scientific perspective, stretching has many benefits. It increases flexibility by lengthening muscle fibers, improves circulation, and helps with range of motion. Regular stretching can improve athletic performance, prevent injuries, and alleviate muscle soreness after exercise. Dynamic stretching—like arm circles or leg swings—prepares your body for activity, while static stretching—holding a pose for 15 to 30 seconds—helps your muscles recover and relax.

But stretching isn’t limited to the body alone. There’s a figurative side to stretching as well. We often talk about "stretching ourselves" when we push beyond our limits or try something new. Whether it’s taking on a challenging project, learning a new skill, or stepping outside of your comfort zone, this kind of stretching helps us grow as individuals. It’s about expanding our horizons, testing our capabilities, and discovering what we’re truly capable of.

Stretching can also be a metaphor for resilience. Just like a rubber band, we can be stretched to our limits, but with the right care and recovery, we bounce back even stronger. Life’s challenges often test our endurance and flexibility—both physically and mentally. Stretching teaches us to be adaptable, to bend without breaking, and to find strength in those moments when we feel pulled in different directions.

A fascinating fact about stretching is that animals do it instinctively. Have you ever noticed how cats and dogs stretch when they wake up from a nap? It’s called "pandiculation," and it helps them wake up their muscles and joints. Humans do this too, especially after sleeping or sitting for long periods. This natural urge to stretch is our body’s way of resetting and preparing for movement.

In conclusion, stretching is a simple yet powerful practice that benefits both the body and mind. It increases flexibility, improves circulation, and helps prevent injury, all while offering moments of relaxation and mindfulness. Whether you’re an athlete preparing for a game, someone trying to relieve the stress of a long workday, or just looking to improve your overall well-being, stretching can transform your daily routine. So the next time you feel stiff or tense, take a moment to stretch—your body and mind will thank you.

The Perfect Timing: When Should You Drink Green Tea?

In the realm of beverages, green tea holds a special place. Renowned for its health benefits and refreshing taste, this centuries-old elixir has become a staple for many around the globe. But have you ever wondered when is the best time to sip on this green goodness?

Let's uncover the perfect timing for indulging in the wonders of green tea.

Morning Brew: Rise and Shine with Green Tea

Picture this: the sun is peeking over the horizon, and you're greeted by the gentle aroma of freshly brewed green tea. Starting your day with a cup of green tea can kickstart your morning on the right note. Its moderate caffeine content provides a gentle energy boost without the jitters, making it an ideal substitute for your regular coffee.

Moreover, green tea is rich in antioxidants like catechins, which can help revitalize your body after a night's rest. A morning cup of green tea can jumpstart your metabolism, aiding in digestion and enhancing fat oxidation, setting the stage for a healthy day ahead.

Midday Pick-Me-Up: Combatting the Afternoon Slump

As the clock strikes noon and your energy begins to dip, green tea comes to the rescue as the perfect pick-me-up. Instead of reaching for sugary snacks or another cup of coffee, opt for a soothing cup of green tea. Its combination of caffeine and L-theanine promotes alertness and concentration without the dreaded caffeine crash.

Furthermore, green tea contains polyphenols that have been linked to improved brain function and reduced risk of age-related cognitive decline. So, whether you're tackling a work project or studying for an exam, a midday mug of green tea can provide the mental clarity you need to power through the day.

Pre-Workout Fuel: Energize Your Exercise Routine

Looking to enhance your workout performance? Look no further than green tea. Consuming green tea before exercise can boost your endurance and help you maximize your training efforts. The caffeine in green tea acts as a natural stimulant, increasing adrenaline levels and mobilizing fatty acids for fuel, which can improve your overall athletic performance.

Additionally, green tea's anti-inflammatory properties can aid in post-workout recovery by reducing muscle soreness and inflammation. Whether you're hitting the gym or going for a run, incorporating green tea into your pre-workout routine can help you crush your fitness goals.

Evening Relaxation: Unwind with a Cup of Tranquility

As the day winds down and evening approaches, green tea can serve as a calming companion to help you unwind. Unlike its caffeinated counterparts, decaffeinated green tea varieties offer the same health benefits without disrupting your sleep patterns.

Sipping on a warm cup of green tea in the evening can promote relaxation and alleviate stress, thanks to its soothing aroma and theanine content. Incorporating a nightly green tea ritual into your bedtime routine can signal to your body that it's time to relax and prepare for a restful night's sleep.

Conclusion

In conclusion, the perfect timing for enjoying green tea depends on your lifestyle and personal preferences. Whether you prefer it as a morning energizer, midday refresher, pre-workout booster, or evening wind-down, green tea offers a myriad of benefits throughout the day.

So, go ahead, brew yourself a cup of green tea and savor the goodness at the perfect moment, whenever it may be. Cheers to your health and well-being!

Beyond the Lounge: Why Sports Leggings Are Your Workout Gamechanger

For many women, leggings have become a wardrobe staple. They're comfortable, versatile, and can be dressed up or down. But when it comes to hitting the gym or pounding the pavement, there's a crucial distinction: regular leggings just won't cut it. Here's why a dedicated pair of women's sports leggings is essential for your active lifestyle, and how to choose the perfect pair for you.

Comfort: An Important Aspect

Let's face it, comfort is key when it comes to pushing yourself in the gym. While style has its place, sports leggings prioritize comfort in ways regular leggings simply can't. Moisture-wicking fabrics keep you dry and prevent irritation, while the supportive fit reduces fatigue and soreness.

Imagine lunges without the fabric bunching, or squats minus the dreaded see-through moment. Sports leggings move with you, not against you, allowing for a full range of motion without restriction. So ditch the distractions and focus on your workout – because when you're comfortable, you're unstoppable.

Beyond Comfort: Functionality Matters Too

Sure, regular leggings might feel comfortable for lounging or running errands. However, during a workout, they can quickly become a source of frustration. Here's what sets sports leggings apart:

Performance Fabrics: Sports leggings are typically made from moisture-wicking materials like polyester or nylon blends. This keeps you dry and comfortable, preventing sweat from accumulating and causing irritation.

Supportive Fit: Unlike regular leggings, sports leggings offer a more compressive fit. This helps with muscle support, reducing fatigue and soreness during and after workouts.

Freedom of Movement: Squats, lunges, and high knees – a good pair of sports leggings should move with you, not against you. Look for designs with four-way stretch fabric that allows for full range of motion.

Durability: Let's face it, workouts can be tough on clothes. Sports leggings are built to last, with reinforced seams and a construction that can withstand the demands of exercise.

Finding the Perfect Fit: It's All About You

The ideal sports leggings should feel like a second skin, offering support and comfort without feeling restrictive. Here are some key features to consider when making your choice:

Length: Sports leggings come in various lengths, from cropped capri styles to full-length options. Choose the length that best suits your activity and personal preference.

Waistband: High-waisted leggings offer the most core support and coverage. Mid-rise options provide a comfortable balance, while low-rise styles might be preferred for activities like yoga.

Seams: Flat seams minimize chafing during exercise. Look for leggings with minimal seams, especially around the inner thighs.

Features: Some leggings come with additional features like pockets for your phone or keys, mesh panels for breathability, or reflective detailing for increased visibility during nighttime workouts.

Beyond the Basics: Performance-Enhancing Details

While the core features are crucial, some leggings go the extra mile to enhance your workout experience:

Squat-Proof: This ensures your leggings stay opaque even during deep squats or bends.

Contoured Waist: A contoured waistband provides a more flattering fit and additional support in the core area.

Strategic Seaming: Strategically placed seams can enhance the shape and provide a flattering silhouette.

Moisture-wicking Pockets: Some leggings feature pockets that are made from the same moisture-wicking material as the rest of the garment, ensuring your essentials stay dry.

Conclusion: Invest in Yourself, Invest in Quality

The right pair of sports leggings can make all the difference in your workout experience. By prioritizing functionality, fit, and features sports leggings for ladies by ShopFeier match your needs and you'll be setting yourself up for success. So ditch the regular leggings and invest in a pair of sports leggings that will support you on your fitness journey

CBD and Self-Care: A Natural Harmony for Your Well-Being

In an era where self-care has assumed unprecedented importance, individuals are constantly on the lookout for natural methods to enhance their overall health and wellness. Enter CBD, or cannabidiol, a substance that has been creating ripples in the realm of well-being. CBD is gaining recognition for its potential to foster relaxation and elevate one's self-care routine, making it a valuable addition to your quest for well-being.

Understanding CBD:

CBD is one of the numerous compounds naturally occurring in the cannabis plant. Notably, it distinguishes itself from its cousin THC by being non-psychoactive, meaning it won't induce a high. Instead, CBD offers a broad spectrum of potential therapeutic benefits without any mind-altering effects, making it an appealing option for those seeking to incorporate natural remedies into their self-care regimen.

How CBD Elevates Self-Care:

Stress Reduction: CBD is frequently sought after for its potential to reduce stress and anxiety. It interacts with the body's endocannabinoid system, helping regulate mood and stress responses. By integrating CBD into your self-care routine, you may find it easier to navigate daily stressors.

Enhanced Sleep: Quality sleep is fundamental to well-being. CBD has exhibited promise in assisting individuals with sleep disorders, including insomnia. Through its relaxation-inducing properties and anxiety reduction, CBD may facilitate a more restful night's sleep.

Pain Relief: Whether you contend with chronic pain or post-workout muscle soreness, CBD's anti-inflammatory attributes could offer relief. Many individuals employ CBD topicals or oils to alleviate discomfort, allowing for undistracted focus on self-care.

Skin Care: CBD is making a significant entrance into the skincare realm. Its antioxidant and anti-inflammatory qualities position it as a potential ally in managing skin issues like acne or irritation. The inclusion of CBD-infused skincare products in your regimen can promote skin well-being as part of self-care.

Mindfulness and Relaxation: Introducing CBD into your self-care routine provides an opportunity for mindfulness. The act of consuming CBD, whether through tinctures, edibles, or other methods, invites a moment of pause, reflection, and the prioritization of your well-being.

Tips for Seamlessly Integrating CBD into Your Self-Care Routine:

Begin Gradually: If you're new to CBD, commence with a low dosage and incrementally adjust it to find the optimal balance for your needs.

Consult a Professional: Especially if you have underlying medical conditions or are taking medications, it's prudent to consult with a healthcare provider before incorporating CBD into your self-care regimen.

Prioritize Quality: Ensure your CBD products are of high quality and sourced from reputable suppliers to maximize their potential benefits.

Combine with Holistic Self-Care Practices: CBD complements a broader self-care regimen encompassing exercise, wholesome nutrition, meditation, and relaxation techniques.

In summary, CBD presents itself as a valuable asset within your self-care toolkit, offering a natural and holistic means to elevate your overall well-being. As with any self-care endeavor, tuning into your body and tailoring your routine to suit your individual needs is pivotal. When approached responsibly and in conjunction with a wholesome lifestyle, CBD can help you place self-care at the forefront of your priorities and attain a profound sense of balance and serenity in your life.

Whether this is the first time you’ve stepped into a gym or you’re back after an extended break, there are ways to help yourself get into the swing of things. When it comes to helping new gym goers, it’s hard to beat kava. This euphoric drink has been used for centuries and carries a variety of benefits that are sure to help you on your fitness journey.

Pre-Workout Boost Kava, or kava kava, is a plant that’s been used for centuries in the South Pacific. The root of the plant can be dried and turned into kava drinks. This beverage isn’t like any pre-workout drink you’ve had before. While some pre-workout choices get you amped up and fill you with oomph, the kava boost is more of an extra edge.

If you just started going to the gym, you know what those moments are like after you leave. Sore muscles. A sense of exhaustion. It’s enough to break new gym habits. With kava, you can create a post-workout recovery routine that encourages you to keep up the good work. Kava is also known for its relaxing benefits. It can help you wind down after a challenging workout. While stretching, taking an ice bath, or just chilling out, kava can help elevate your mood and encourage a better recovery. When you know that after your workout, you’ll get this incredible experience with a kava drink, you’ll be more excited than ever to finish your routine. Alcohol Alternative When you start working out, you want to make sure your lifestyle promotes health and fitness in every aspect. That way, you feel better when you lift or run, and your body can turn these exercises into positive momentum. One way you can do this is by using kava as an alcohol alternative. Kava can have the same euphoric and social benefits without any of the negatives. Drink a moderate amount before hanging out with your friends or heading out to a party. It’s great for concerts, sporting events, and karaoke nights. Then, when your next workout comes up, you’ll be glad you were using kava as an alcohol alternative.

Knight in shining-whatever (Bradley Bradshaw x female!OC)

Please leave some ideas/requests below, I am having a ton of fun writing these but am looking for some good prompts, even ones for regular imagines/ non OC related prompts!

Summary: After having to eject during one of Mav's dogfights, Brandy sits in Penny's bar nursing a bruised ego and wondering how after everyone in the squadron came to visit her, Rooster managed to be the only one not to. That is, until he decides to take matters into his own hands, getting into a fight with Hangman at the bar for almost killing her, and then having to explain himself for never showing up to make sure she was okay.

Warnings: alcohol consumption, angst/fighting

Brandy sat at the bar, her sore muscles finding some relief as she leaned against the bar for support. That morning during Maverick's dogfight, Hangman left her and her RIO, well, hanging- as per usual. She got caught in turbulence, causing both engines to malfunction one at a time. She did everything by the book, but it was simply to far gone for an in air fix, causing her and her wingman to have to eject. She fully understood that what happened wasn't really on her, but it didn't change the anxious feeling in her chest that felt like it weighed a ton. She lifted the cold beer to her cheek where a small bruise had formed, sighing as she closed her eyes.

"You know, its very disconcerting when you drink beer." Brandy heard a soft voice behind her and cracked a smile despite not opening her eyes. She felt a chin plop down onto her shoulder before she leaned her head to the side against it.

"I'm okay, Nat." she cooed back, opening her eyes and shooting her best friend, Nat, a reassuring glance. Natasha raised her head off the small blonde's shoulder and gave her a doubtful look as she slunk into the stool beside her, causing Brandy to huff with another smile. "It's just my head, I'm really fine. Little bit sore." she explained, leaning her head into her hand as she spoke to the other female pilot before taking another sip of beer.

Brandy had a hard time with this type of stuff; she didn't love to be taken care of or fawned over too much, she felt like it made her look weak especially in a training situation. Which was why she was incredibly surprised that most of the pilots visited her once she got back to base to make sure she was okay. She appreciated it, she really did, but she just found it odd, especially knowing the competitive nature that had been going on between all of them during the training exercises. They were all slowly becoming family, and one she was grateful for at that. But it was also the exact reason that she couldn't understand why Bradley had not been one of those people to visit.

Nat had told her that when her plane went down and Maverick's worried tone for her to eject was heard over the small radio back in the hangar, Bradley had nearly lost his shit over the small pilot. Which brings her right back to wondering why she hadn't seen the boy all day. The two had shared many close moments over their past few weeks at TopGun preparing for what they could only describe as the incredibly insane low flying mission they were tasked with. So much so, that she assumed the two had pretty much started a relationship at this point; and yet, here she sat at the bar nursing a bruised ego with beer instead of being taken care of by probably the only person she would ever let.

"No tequila for you tonight, Patron?" Hangman teased from behind her, Brandy's face taking on a slack faced, cold expression, putting her beer bottle down onto the counter a little too aggressively and with a grip that was just a little too tight. She could hear that stupid fucking grin on his face.

"Brandy don't worry about it- Hangman would you shut up?" Nat tried to console her and beat off Hangman at the same time, standing up from the barstool she sat on.

"I've decided a beer bottle would be easier to shove up your ass, Hangman." Brandy suddenly said, her face and voice both emotionless before taking another swig. This was really not what she needed to deal with right now. Any other time? Not really, but especially not now. Nat's jaw dropped slightly as she leaned her back onto the bar, most of the other pilots laughing in a chorus, and glanced down at the blonde pilot who refused to swivel around to look at Hangman. She couldn't hide the proud grin, making Brandy smile every so slightly despite the pain it caused in her cheekbone.

"Is that any way to speak to someone who came to visit you-"

"I didn't ask to see your fucking face of all people-" Brandy started to argue in an aggressive tone, her voice slightly raspy and fed up enough to spin herself around on the bar stool. There was a buzzed fire starting behind Brandy's eyes as she eyed the cocky pilot who really just seemed to be enjoying riling her up.

"Brandy just leave it, there's no point in ending up with a broken hand too." Nat mumbled next to her, grabbing her arm and pulling her back down onto the bar stool that she didn't even realize she stood up from. Without taking her eyes off Hangman she pulled her arm free from Nat's grasp a little harsher than she meant to before swiveling back around to face the bar. Nat shook her head at Hangman before joining her best friend again whose head was already back in her hands.

Just from the short exertion of energy, Brandy felt like someone had taken a screwdriver and shoved it through her orbital. The bruise on her cheek sent pulsing pains into her eye and she held the beer bottle up to her face again. The more she though about it, all she wanted to do was be with Bradley, maybe its even the reason she came to the bar in the first place, in hopes she'd find him in his usual spot. Would that have made her feel better or worse that he was drinking instead of making sure she was okay, she had no idea.

"Are you sure I can't get you a real ice pack for that?" Brandy looked up from her self-pitying internal conversation to be met with the kind eyes and smile of Penny. She shot back a grateful smile and shook her head as softly as she could without worsening the head ache.

"I'm okay Penny, thanks." Brandy took a swig of the beer as Penny went back to wiping down the bar. She hadn't even realized that Bradley had walked in, although his eyes weren't trained in her direction anyways. Nat noticed first, grabbing onto Brandy's forearm tightly as she surveyed the way there seemed to be lasers coming out of his eyes that positioned themselves right at Hangman's back. Bradley's face held nothing but anger with a clenched jaw that was in stark contrast to his bright outfit consisting of his usual Hawaiian shirt and white tank top.

"On second thought, we might need that ice-pack." Nat mumbled without taking her eyes off Bradley and slowly sliding off the bar stool. At this point, Brandy looked down at the grip Nat had on her forearm and then to her face where her eyes were wide but rest of her face clearly trying not to express alarm or worry Brandy. Brandy's eyebrows knit together slightly before she glanced over her shoulder right in time to see Bradley swing and sucker punch Hangman right in the jaw.

"Oh you've gotta be kidding me." Brandy grimaced, her forehead meeting her forearm which was down on the bar top. Nat was already rushing over to the boys to break up the fight with the help of some of the other pilots who had come into the bar along with Hangman. Brandy lifted her head up with a huff before climbing down from the bar bench. the neon lights making her squint slightly from the migraine like pain.

"Bradley-" Brandy started but he had already managed to hit Hangman again, making the small blonde roll her eyes before picking up her pace toward the scuffle. The low bun that her hair was in bounced slightly as her pace quickened before she managed to shove herself in between Bradley and Hangman, much to Nat's dismay. By the time she was able to separate the two slightly, her head was pounding and strands of her bangs hung in her face.

"Bradley, back up!" she growled, pushing her hands into his chest much less forcefully than if she was fully recovered. For as light as it was, the small shove brought Bradley's attention away from Hangman and down to the small blonde pilot in front of him who looked just about as similar to a fire cracker. "Get outside." she added through clenched teeth and a point of her finger to the deck. Bradley's gaze rose back up to meet Hangman's who was leaning against a table with one hand, the other raised to his nose that was dripping blood. He hesitantly backed away toward the deck before turning on his heels and stomping outside somewhat like a child with Brandy following suit, steam coming off her skin and that nagging pain in her head throbbing with every step.

"What are you, a fucking child? Huh-" Brandy started screaming once they were out on the deck, shoving Bradley in the chest with the same ill-produced shoves she used inside. "What the fuck was that you absolute fucking asshole- you- fuck!" she screamed, cursing word vomit after word vomit because it was really all her brain could muster with the remaining working braincells she had. She was fuming, this was really the first time she saw him today, and she's playing teacher for a schoolyard fight.

"You done yet?" Bradley tested and immediately regretted the words, standing up straighter as Brandy's jaw opened slightly, anger filling behind her eyes until he was sure she was thinking of a million and one ways to make his plane crash the following day.

"No where near fucking done Bradley- what the hell was that? Huh? I haven't seen you, all fucking day. I have seen everyone in this goddamn squadron except you until now, where you walk in here all guns-a-fucking-blazing, my knight in shining armor, goddamn bullshit to avenge me?" Bradley just took the screaming, surprised, honestly, that all that fury could come out of such a small person. But mostly, he just took it because he wasn't even really sure he had an answer for any of the questions she was asking. The truth was, he was fucking scared out of his mind when her plane went down. For a good few minutes he had no idea if she was dead or alive and he lost it. Mav had eventually found him forty minutes later to let him know she was alright, but Bradley had already nearly been in tears at that point. He felt like he needed to see her, because he just couldn't lose her in the same way he lost his dad, but the feelings that bubbled to his surface about the blonde pilot were equally as terrifying as losing her. And so, he waged an internal war in his head that lasted nearly the whole day, back and forth back and forth until the sun was down. The thing that didn't scare him, though, was giving Hangman a piece of his mind for almost killing her, and so that was what he decided to do.

"You walk in here a few weeks ago and fucking start something with me that I'm really not sure at this point you can finish being that I almost died and you couldn't get your ass up to make sure I was still breathing- like was it all a joke?! Making me fall in love with you like that again only for you to still be too goddamn scared? Are you a fucking child?!" Brandy kept word vomiting and finally Bradley was kick started back.

"I-" he started in an angry tone but quickly lowered it, not really bringing himself to be able to yell at her. His mother taught him better than that. "I thought you were dead." he settled on, his face going red with embarrassment and about how stupid the statement sounded. You thought she was dead goddamnit you really are an idiot-

Brandy paused, her eyes narrowing as she knew that everyone was alerted that she was not, in fact, dead, Bradley bracing himself for the criticism of his statement, "You thought I was dead?"

"Yes." he stuck with his story, playing as dumb as he could and praying it got him out of this unscathed.

"So you came here, to punch Hangman for killing me? Did I get that correct?" Brandy spoke slow, her anger bubbling even further to the surface and wishing she could look away from those damn eyes she was in love with.

"Yes, there are flowers in the car." he finished with a nod. Now that one, he told himself, not entirely a lie. Good job.

Brandy moved a hand over her mouth as she began to pace back and forth. The silence was killing Bradley, but he really couldn't bring himself to speak as he watched her pace. It honestly broke his heart, to see the bruising on her face and on her arms, the way her skin looked too pale for the normal tan complexion she sported from days in the sun. All he wanted to do was hug her and roll her up in a blanket and take care of her-

"Okay, I knew you weren't dead-" he suddenly blurted.

"Wow, a fucking genius-"

"Would you let me finish?" he raised his voice slightly, leaning onto the railing of the deck and bringing his non injured hand up to his face, dragging his hand over his mouth. Brandy crossed her arms. "When I heard your plane go down over the radio I panicked. Mav found me, like, an hour later crying in my room because well- that's... how my dad died- ejected like that and I guess when I was listening to your voice panic over the radio and Mav's voice yelling too I just- I couldn't help but think that that's what it sounded like for my dad too. So, I knew you weren't dead but I felt like I couldn't tell what was real or not and if I walked into that hospital room and you weren't okay I don't think I could live with myself because you are literally all I have besides Mav and that's complicated-"

"Rooster-" Brandy tried to interrupt him, guilt washing over her about how she yelled at him when all of this was purely done out of fear of what happened to his dad happening again.

"I do have flowers- in-in my car that wasn't a lie I have flowers for you-" he continued to talk quickly, tears beginning to sting his eyes as the blonde walked over to him. Brandy sighed, gently picking up Roosters bloody hand off the railing of the deck and surveying the damage of it; her tiny hands gingerly probing around at the bones to make sure everything was okay. Her energy felt completely drained after the fighting, but even with the pain she was feeling, all she wanted to do really was comfort Bradley.

"He wouldn't admit that he could have killed you." Bradley said through a slightly clenched jaw watching Brandy check out his hand. He thought about punching him again as he said that; how could he not understand the weight of that?

"Hangman is an idiot..." she mumbled refusing to let go of Bradley's hand but finally looking up at him. His brown orbs of eyes seemed to already be watching her intently, although looking much more hurt and worn down after the conversation. "And now he knows that very well thanks to you." she added with a small smile and gesture to his hand, making Bradley relax ever so slightly about the blonde being mad at him.

"Hey I'm not..." Bradley started again suddenly, his good hand making its was to her waist where his fingers clung onto the belt loops of her jeans the way they normally did when they were out at the bar, his little way of saying she was with him. "I'm not playing games, this wasn't and isn't a joke to me. I'm... definitely falling for you too." he finished, regaining some of the confidence that she was used to seeing him with. Butterflies swarmed Brandy's stomach and chest at the words that she actually quite frankly forgot she had said earlier.

"I'm sorry-"

"No you're not apologizing for this one," Bradley laughed slightly, Brandy smiling shamefully at her habit of apologizing for everything and moving her gaze to the ground until Bradley's injured hand nudged her chin up slightly so she looked back at him again. "I'm sorry that I didn't make it around to seeing you today because I was too caught up in my own head to go to you, and I'm sorry for being your knight in shining whatever punching Hangman for you-" Brandy rolled her eyes even though her smile grew, "And I would really just like to go home and take care of you. It's really hard to see you like this." his thumb grazed over the bruise lightly, but Brandy nudged her cheek into his hand enjoying to comfort until the slight wince of Bradley's face reminded her that was his bad hand.

"Oh, fuck sorry." she said before her hand covered her mouth quickly, making both of them laugh. Brandy leaned her head forward onto Bradley's chest as they laughed, the arm not around her waist snaking its around around her shoulder. He kissed her forehead softly, enjoying the smell of her soft perfume that always lingered around her after she was showered.

"Can I actually go show you those flowers now? I am really proud of them."

"Yes," Brandy laughed with a sigh, pulling away from Bradley slightly before allowing him to lead her to the car, his hand in her back pocket as they walked. "You need to let me look at that hand when we get home though."

"On second thought, why don't you stay here with Hangman-" he teased, only to received a jab to the ribs which he rightfully deserved, causing the two to laugh even more.

down the line that perception has turned by 180 degrees

as it should

ten becomes more irreplaceable, relatable, beautiful, perfect and impressive the more you know him

he’s not as mysterious and impossibly badass as everyone assumes

his personality is very approachable to you

and you find him interesting in every aspect, looks to hobbies to background to personal habits

and also opinions because ten is a guy who really thinks stuff through

so you gotta be roughly on the same wavelength

he likes discussing controversial and complicated stuff a lot for sure

being far wiser than his age suggests

you are the first to share those things with him until the rest of the world catches up to this gem of a person

spending so much time with you

in the most personal way he can

he takes you to see the floating markets in bangkok, you spend the summer in thailand

wakeboarding and playing badminton

his entire family knows you inside out at some point this shit is serious

it’s very important to him to go back to the roots every now and then

and that you have been around his home city as well

getting to enjoy the area and time together eating the most savory delicacies

renting a boat and paddling you around to the important spots, he can explain any question you have

this kissing is gonna be so romantic

who needs a vacation in venice when you can go to thailand with none other than ten himself as your ferryman let that sink in

except eating durian there he is, the boyfriend who can do anything!

with seemingly no effort

ten does little kind services of love for you throughout the day

he pours you herbal tea, fixes some furniture (he’s surprisingly good at tinkering), comes home from the bakery with your favorite pastry, does the laundry with your favorite fabric softener

he also goes on a huge shopping spree with you monthly because fashion is key in this household and it’s tremendous fun

you giggle when he puts on oversized shirts deliberately to look funny

everyone in the clothing store will think oh man what an adorable pair

ten will model the living hell out of the entire stock

and buy you the cape you really really want as a birthday present

said item turns out to be your favorite couple accessory

because you can sit next to each other on a bench at the river and wear it

what’s not to love about a portable blanket

of course he will take to instagram and make it such a cool thing, photographies of you wearing really cool coats and jackets

mirror bathroom selfies together as well, with a back hug, the classic

and not just for insta

you snuggle a lot generally

ten is always available for affection

and accepts all PDA

he’s a kitty after all, he loves the warmth of your body more than you know

remember how taemin said ten’s hands are always cold, newsflash not anymore since you stuff them into the pocket of your hoodie whenever you can

and hello sir your paws will be nice and cozy on my waist

or hand in hand when you waltz through your apartment

time for dance is a must

oh my god ten is so good at all of this

although say he’s definitely faster into latin than standard genres

tango argentino, he loves flamenco as well

don’t believe me? ten is a diehard rosalía stan!

vamos

so, no-brainer, expect a lot of dancy stuff

that escalates into wild, passionate fucking

which probably looks like an aggressive form of couple exercises

you poor sore souls

ten’s lil kitty butt is falling apart from all the “i can handle a bigger one!”-level pegging and you have aching legs all over

favorite position? full nelson

if you ask me ten’s ass is probably so carved out by the end of this you could fit lucas and kai in there from head to toe

this is not for the faint of heart

sex with this guy is extra cardio

and if you’re into that a threesome is gonna go down sooner or later

with our girl lisa

there. i said it

miss manoban in those knee-high boots, grinding her thighs between yours and you finishing off on ten’s face? the fucking hottest thing ever i need a moment wow

i don’t have to tell you how orgasmic this is gonna be

steamy sex life with ten very recommended

⌈ kai

— motto: you’re like a precious rose. i’ll protect you forever.

to be straightforward with you

he is in so heavily in demand it’s madness

to give you an idea of the scale

mark is basically occupied by yuta until the end of time

but kai has an entire idol fanclub on top of all erigoms

those sharp moves did not go unnoticed

he gets an inkigayo sandwich every other day

jesus christ

if rent-a-sexy-bf.com was a thing kai would be the most requested

his phone would be blowing up with contracts like

and you also have to pass kyungsoo’s vibe check

and taemin’s

the road to being kai’s gf is indeed the way of the samurai

i mean honestly: kim jongin is without a doubt the hardest member to get a date with

this has got to be the most selective man of the entire industry or something

if he likes you he REALLY likes you

and he will be the one showing initiative

because he wants to make it clear he isn’t just spending time out of politeness or something

although it’s pretty logical that if kai was unable to reject someone he would no longer be an idol but a harem husband busy every hour of the day

seoul would be able to found its own village

kai town

where like 70% of the population is pregnant

but since kai wants to keep on dancing obviously and he wants to lend his heart to only one person

seoul has to settle with a singular nini family house instead of a kai district

where you and the man himself are a full-fledged household basically since kai’s nieces double as actual kids

if you wanna be a young ass ‘mom but not mom with kids’ and be married to kim kai this is it

does he have a thing for milfs or something

that thought just came to my mind

anyway you’re mommy anyway wink wink

fucking til’ dawn until even his muscles hurt

going raw at the gym together

him cooking the most random food with the infamous waffle maker

cuddling with an army of teddy bears surrounding you

walking the dogs with the sexiest dancer alive

and the sexiness is only the tip of the iceberg

we know he’s all-round amazing

kai is the king of figuring out ways to chill out with you anywhere anytime

and yes innocent chilling

...unless you’re in the mood for something else

up to you

anyway

sweet innocent chilling for now... with the stunner... just smooching at best things aren’t going raw or anything

on the couch in the kitchen in the car when it’s parked somewhere in nature

kai takes you very seriously and is a great listener

he’s literally so respectful and open-minded i can’t

he will keep your secrets and stand up for you if it’s ever needed

yes he is extremely caring and invested

kai does not tolerate others being shady towards you

if there’s an instance where you are hurt and unable to assert yourself don’t worry. he knows how to confront others with measure but a firm determination.

kai takes a lot of that responsibility but only to the degree where you are comfortable

i think you get what i mean by that

and he is diplomatic instead of plain patronizing

you have a right to be protected. it means he not only treats you well, but also makes sure your well-being isn’t disturbed in any other way outside of the relationships

outside influences aren’t to be underestimated

and since kai is a godly man you encounter a lot of jealousy from others

a matter he will take into his hands since he knows he’s the reason

standing up for you also means saying no

to these jealous voices so this is an important boundary he has to draw

that all kinds of hellbent people want to get into his pants and take his stage image too literally is not up to you to fix

kai is there for you to enjoy and love not to defend

that’d be exhausting and beside the point

kai prevents stress and negativity to come to you

i hope i explained this well he doesn’t do this to be bossed up or make you weak it’s because he wants to make life easier for you

guys being protective will be chalked up as chauvinistic these days. often rightfully so

but what i mean is that kai support you in all regards so you won’t be at a disadvantage or feel terrible about something

⌈ taeyong

— motto: we’ll take good care. enjoy the pleasure.

he’s the type of boyfriend who will ask you about things he missed out on while he was busy

things um from the internet

while mark literally knows that one by heart already taeyong will ask you things like what the wellerman song is

and you thought it would be something nsfw

i got you fooled

did we forget that the man literally watched nct memes on youtube

taeyong is both even more 18+ than you think but also even more innocent than you think it’s complicated

this man is just hard to describe he’s so different, i mean every person is unique but he’s an original it’s the extra mile you know

anyway

sea shanties

bopping to it all day since he just heard it

singing it while he prepares dinner based on a youtube recipe video as he often does

he’s the most adorable person ever ever ever

asking you why shanties are back in fashion

(good question, requires a deeper sociocultural analysis i reckon)

planning to remix one for his soundcloud lmao i kid you not

maybe your favorite shanty

featuring fast-pace rap and all

creating his own previously unknown phrases and shit like that you know him

palazzo rocco lemon detox flashbacks

he’s hilarious i swear

taeyong will produce his own shanties for you can you imagine

as he says: my happiness is your happiness

watch out he will drop a shanty music video with extra krumping moves

taeyong is a never-ending source of pure crack

prepare to laugh a lot like, a lot lot

how can a man who seemingly has such a serious outlook on life and such a bonkers kinda face be so lighthearted

it’s like he’s peter pan or something

especially since he has to manage like over 20 brats in nct his cutesy behavior towards you as his gf will stand out to you

yeah so to be clear we all know he’s the cute one in the relationship

and guess who wears the pants

that’s always you ma’am don’t deny it

or wait

not for long actually because they come off um physically

but not metaphorically

because who doesn’t wanna sit on his face tbh

your favorite reserved spot

he loves it

taeyong has such a thing for your body it’s ridiculous

mister lee got a sexy mama

and you have such a thing for the gloriousness that is him

but neither of you will not admit it as openly as other people would think

all there is... is being flustered

baekhyun probably has to play some cupid now and then

and give you some ideas

like gifting taeyong plushies and things like that

baekhyun knows what taeyong is all about so the advice is very welcome

but most things you find out for yourself

by being a little braver with him you know

you walking around naked in the apartment or basically fresh out the shower with nothing but a towel

will shake up taeyong so immensely, he will back himself against a wall without you even pinning him there lmao!

jeez he’s so deep into kinky stuff but easily shook anyway

i quote him again: “born to be cute, i dunno!”

you can imagine the overwhelm when you rub yourself against him like it’s nobody’s business

it’s so much fun to give taeyong a regular horny meltdown not gonna lie

this man was grinding his whole body all over the superm stage and now he’s basically freezing up and drooling

how many denied and ruined orgasms he’s gonna get, so much overstimulation all the way

you’ll lose count of it

and just how wet you’re gonna be

is a thing for the history books

taeyong isn’t such a big deal in nct for no reason god gave him every talent

so great sex is obviously in his repertoire

i think you’re gonna break some records for most fucks per week

you know... guys like lucas taemin kai and baekhyun spend more time wooing and teasing and flirting

but taeyong gets down to business

one glance is enough

⌈ lucas

— motto: the hottest couple around.

ah, big boy

you really got this man’s attention

doing nothing much at all really

he probably just saw you walking around talking to friends

carrying an impossibly huge veggie burger munching and enjoying yourself after going on a jog

yeah boy that’s how you catch his eye

they say love begins in the stomach and that is the true meaning

or the nose, your food smells really good, lucas is going crazy, he’s seeing stars and shit

anyway

the towering burger isn’t the only thing he wants

lucas cannot get you out of his mind no matter how much he tries to distract himself

with more good food, movies, games

fooling around with wayv or the superm maknaes, and working out

he’s admittedly... a little himbo head over himbo heels with you the feels got to him

he’s not gonna say it’s a date he’s just gonna invite you just because

to hang out in the kitchen while taeyong cooks and baekhyun comes up with the idea to play twister

imagine lucas with his long arms and legs bending himself all over the place

fighting with kai who almost crashed his shoulders into taemin who avoided the accident quickly

making you lose a round

obviously lucas will hustle until your team wins

mostly because he’s so tall and baekhyun is so small which is a huge advantage when stacking each other over the map

let’s just face it baekhyun only suggested this game to bite everyone’s butts and to see you have skinship with lucas

which is definitely a successful plan of the leader

yukhei is in paradise

jumping around his room like an oversized bunny after you went home

don’t lie, you fell hard for him as well he’s just such a presence

emotionally, physically

a gentle but persistent giant

he’ll do anything to make your relationship happen once he knows you’re interested

if there’s someone meant to be a boyfriend it’s gotta be him come on

he will cave in after a while and admit he can’t just forget about you

not gonna lie

your ex is gonna be shaking in his ratty boots

his poor eyes will literally jop from their unexpecting sockets

when he sees lucas hanging out with you

with his shining blonde hair and tall stature, that perfect shapely body, with great fashion on top of that

looking like your guardian angel

man, xuxi really does

pulling you out of your slump that’s been going on for months

and bringing back smiles and a good time he knows how to do that best

and big big hugs of course

you can imagine how soothing and grounded it feels with such huge arms around you

he will make sure that feeling is always there when you need it

because you deserve that treatment

which means he will come over very very often

yeah get ready for how yukhei is a lot more driven than you think just dial and he will be there

underneath the meme surface is someone very determined who really really wants you

yukhei is chaotic good incarnate but in that area he isn’t messing around

his brain is like: “gotta be with her”

on repeat

he must call you, he literally can’t sleep without tying loose ends together as quickly as possible

no second wasted with this guy, even far down the relationship timeline

i really pity your ex

i mean someone dating any superm member would drive their former partner completely nuts

but lucas is a special case

he has that kind of look and aura that makes other guys dig themselves into the ground like wiggling worms or cope by fanboying over him

i don’t wanna make this sound like a competition and yet — congrats on your noodly blondie boyfriend alright

⌈ mark

— motto: two nerds in love.

how to explain this. mark is a perfect balance of a lover, a talker, and a shy bean

with a tendency toward bean

and flicking the bean

you know

cutting right to the chase are we

mark is very invested in pleasing you as good as he can

and defeating his awkwardness

because if we know one thing it’s that he always strives to become better and better like he can’t help it

and isn’t afraid of almost biting off more than he can chew

how many subunits is he part of at this point is it gonna be nct hollywood as well god dangit

back to the point mark doesn’t treat relationships and sex as something static which is a good and rare thing

he does his best and always looks for room to improve

while being very nervous, very bilingual, it takes two languages or more to express what he thinks about you let that sink in

that’s very shaky first date sex while being extremely in love with each other

lucky you

and an afterglow where he plays the guitar for you

that’s so nice

he can play it while laying down and shit

while singing

not rapping, actual full-fledged serenading

we’ve heard how that sounds in the relay cam

are you dating some kind of teenage heartthrob or something huh

mark will make it very clear he’ll stick around, this bad bitch is here to stay

or actually, he’s a good bitch, don’t misunderstand

mark doesn’t have a lot of edgy in him unless rap is concerned

he’s the kinda guy to get lost in IKEA with

having a good time

as often as his schedule permits

you really have to make use of your time together

this man might as well the busiest idol out there

and you are no different because birds of a feather

you’re both mr. and ms. independent

out and about very often

so meeting up becomes something special during comeback season

or wait mark always has a comeback going on

which is a double-edged sword but something you both know you signed up for

which is why you spend a lot of time around NCT dream, 127, and SuperM

sm’s publicity agents have to work extra hard i’m telling you

a dating rumor is the last thing both of you would need

since you befriend several members you gotta stay on the low as well

but hey the rage of jealous people of the public is nothing compared to the force of nature that is yuta nakamoto

who seriously thinks himself threatened and robbed

in case you are feeling possessive as well...

...you might have to fistfight yuta

to be able to be with mark

who is basically property of osaka at this point

yuta is a scorpio that’s just the way it is

unlike taeyong who wishes his rap buddy the best, yuta kinda wants to be mark’s wingman and see him date, live his best life

but also have mark for himself to fawn over and to adore, to be fascinated by

we get it yuta. bisexual struggles. very understandable

you have to promise in person that mark doesn’t forget about the holy gaming nights with yuta

which is hilarious since that’s not up to you but mark’s memory

bestie, yuta uses everyone as a scapegoat don’t sweat it too much

regardless you put a weekly reminder on the fridge

so the roaring lion yuta would be pacified

he doesn’t want to lose his sweetheart can you blame him

the ultimate but also most risky solution is obviously inviting yuta for movies

which will be appreciated but also cause a storm

mark will definitely break a sweat when you start a popcorn war or try to prove who hugs mark the best

caught in the middle of mayhem is mark lee’s specialty what did you expect

this either ends with murder or a chaotic open relationship down the line

yuta really is attached but who wouldn’t be

it could be worse mark has double the love you know

⌈ baekhyun

— motto: you wanna know why i’m your candy?

baby tell me are you ridin’?

in fair verona where we lay our scene...

that baekhyun always wants to woo you — his way, which proves to be very interesting to say the least — is never hard to miss

putting in effort is mochi default mode

no matter what stage of the relationship you’re in

he might as well regularly serenade you under your balcony in the backyard just because

probably singing ‘baby we can stay up’ and wiggling his ass in all directions because he’s a dirty boy gone wild

yeah. nowadays romeo is twerking instead of feuding with tybalt

that’s good for him and everyone involved

you in particular because you get some very racy eye candy

you know how baekhyun is

at least nobody’s around seeing him put on an 18+ show like that

your little guy is one unhinged fella

if it starts pouring he will grind up and down the next lantern and belt out ‘singing in the rain’

you bet he can do some actual pole dance

he’s strong and bendy you know

and loves to gyrate his whole bag of bones like... he wants to hit you with all the body rolls

in the rain

what a freaky man

but hey you wanna stay up for sure

doesn’t take long until you beckon him to come upstairs

where the only way to alleviate him of his wet clothes—

oh well he has those roger rabbit vibes and you can’t be mad at it

he will play off all his hormonal antics

baekhyun is hilarious

and so perverted, he can keep up with your spicy idea of playing patty-cake don’t worry

how do i know you’re an extra nsfw kinda person?

who else would like baekhyun

he says juicy things all the time

and does juicy things

yes. finally a couple on eye level indeed.

when baekhyun asks are you ridin’ you ask how hard

bruh

this is gonna be fun

and remember

beside handing you sacks of money

his priority is always to make you smile

i’m kidding about the bags but

baekhyun is so rich it’ll show in your relationship, but he’s more about the interactions with you rather than the lifestyle

baekhyun didn’t hustle for a bentley he hustled to sing and get out of sm alive alright

financial stability: important

luxury: very nice to have, he can make you the presents you want to have and travel a lot together

but smiles: baekhyun priority

because he so badly wants to know you love him and adore him, he sometimes feels so insecure

of course you do

you always reassure him with your reactions

it’s very important to him don’t underestimate it

baekhyun has always been talking about his ideal type in terms of how he can cheer her up

so even the naughtiest sexy time evenings are gonna be filled with all giggles

anyway other than that your pussy will be dripping

because this guy is as horny as all other members of super m combined

and you have your ways of leaving him tongue-tied and wrists-tied

taemin’s impact

superm isn’t short of bondage supplies we all know that

so yeah. shibari baekhyun is gonna happen

since he does pilates imagine what kinda shapes you can bend this lil guy into

and take some pictures

privé is in trouble

bondage model baekhyun is bursting onto the scene

you might even run a risque blog that features cropped pictures with him

heh — you think people will recognize him by his body?

nope

first: you only upload HD pictures that aren’t whitewashed

baekhyun is basically never photographed like that

second: who expects baekhyun to be featured on a bdsm blog with his girlfriend

and this is the guy that drives you around in his expensive car with his big black shades on

well what can i say

nothing is the way it seems

⌈ taemin

— motto: i’ll unfold a whole new world for you.

taemin is cocky, he’s sensual, and: a very smiley person as we know

least boring relationship ever

he will prance toward you whenever he can to involve you in cuddles

touch-starved taemin is a thing

kkoong can tell you about it, he needs kisses and embraces so often

might as well pepper him with it no problem

and put him into your oversized sweaters when he eats ice cream on the sofa, watching movies, and you brush his ever-growing hair

he’s smol he’s gonna fit into them don’t worry

and on the other hand he likes a rough and tough girl who thinks of him like a boy toy

who acts tsundere or like his bodyguard

working out almost daily to the point of sweat all over

a gal probably able to pretzel minho lucas and chanyeol into one giant bundle

taemin truly has the taste of a divo

multi-layered as always

so you couldn’t say the relationship is always the same in sentiment, the vibe of the dynamic could be different every day

we love a complex man

what would be volatile to others is actually an advantage up close

because taemin understands every difficult facet of himself and his partner

even if those facets might be contradictory

or something that’s felt shameful about

he will accept and listen anyway

the same goes for getting what drives you

taemin is like a walking psychology velvet couch with fancy swirls as arm rests

point is he isn’t fooled by the surface of the world

he knows what has to be known

which also means your looks aren’t the part he prioritizes

and not even outward personality and habit is what he’s drawn to

it’s the mentality and values underneath

that’s true compatibility to him and he can feel it

he’s really really smart

and also finds it important that you get along with shinee and superm, that you think they’re nice to be around and vice versa

especially kai as taemin’s absolute bearly bestie. if kai thinks you’re shady and you don’t like kai either

or if you’re permanently super awkward and taemin’s moodmaking doesn’t help

we have a problem

but fair enough

kai and taemin are basically one soul at this point so if taemin likes you jongin does anyway

bff telepathy

in fact jongin was probably the one introducing you to taemin lmao!

because he knows you go well together instinctively and he is correct

so not to worry then

and it’s good on taemin to think longterm and not see you as a person outside of social interaction y’know

cough cough he thinks about marriage, you might be ms. lee one day

here he goes again taemin is just very mature seeing you as well-rounded in every aspect of life

without letting his dick make the important decisions at the detriment of making this a relationship of two lives not just two bodies only

but obviously don’t assume taemin is no horny devil. we all know he dreams of the freakiest scenarios and fantasies in this whole group

going kinda crazy about the thought of making you cum which he always wants to try with new methods

which occupies his mind more than a big bowl of super spicy noodles which is taemin’s favorite meal so

at the same time taemin junior is definitely the same clingy attention whore as his sparkly owner

limp wrists from all the handjobs on your side

and very swollen lips from giving all that head on his side

this is gonna be interesting

he puts the 6v6 in 69

equals 69v69 am i right

but i’m serious that’s gonna be a lot of oral action

you definitely ask each other about having sex very often, daily if you have the time and find a nice spot

and how on earth do both of you keep your hands off each other sleeping in one bed

taemin is touchy as hell with no shyness, and you squish squeeze and grope this guy like the mochi he is

ah when things go both ways

TEXT

[ Scenario One ]

Gavin: I heard from Minor that you smelt of ointment at work today?

MC: That’s right. I might have exercised too much yesterday, so my body aches everywhere... what about you?

Gavin: I’m doing fine.

Gavin: I’m used to it after the regular training at STF. Sledding isn’t much.

Gavin: How are you feeling? Did you pull a muscle?

MC: I’m not injured. There’s only soreness.

Gavin: Are you sure?

Gavin: Let me know if it really hurts.

MC: I seem unwell because of how stinging the scent of the ointment is...

Gavin: I see.

Gavin: In that case, I’ll give you a massage tonight to alleviate the ache. That way, you won’t need to use the ointment tomorrow.

[ Scenario Two ]

Gavin: I heard from Minor that you smelt of ointment at work today?

MC: Be honest. Minor’s main job was to spy on me, wasn’t it?

Gavin: Cough. I told him to do it.

Gavin: He lets me know whenever you feel unwell.

Gavin: Were you injured from sledding?

MC: I have no idea. I can’t see the spot where I pasted the pain relief patch.

Gavin: I’ll pick you up after work and see if you need to visit the hospital.

Gavin: ...I’ve just received information that you look unwell.

Gavin: Are you in a lot of pain?

MC: Okay, it really hurts, sob sob sob.

Gavin: I’ve made an appointment at the massage centre.

Gavin: After work, meet me downstairs punctually.

Gavin: When that time comes, the first thing I’ll do is give you a comforting hug.

[ Scenario Three ]

Gavin: I heard from Minor that you smelt of ointment at work today?

MC: It’s not so serious that I had to apply pain relief patches all over my body. I only pasted one.

Gavin: Looks like the warm up exercises before sledding weren’t done properly.

Gavin: After work, I’ll take you to the hospital for a checkup. You might have pulled a muscle.

MC: Reporting to the Commander - I’m not that fragile!

Gavin: You can’t give false reports to the Commander.

Gavin: Based on a reliable source of information, you currently look unwell.

Gavin: You're also frowning, so you’re probably in a lot of pain.

MC: I’ve just fired Minor. Let him join the STF.

Gavin: The STF will not consider him.

Gavin: I’ve just collected some ointment from the infirmary.

Gavin: I’ll be downstairs at your office in around ten minutes.

~~~~

Your nose was red as you made it back to the cabin were you and the team had decided to vacation for a little down time, of course it wasnt your normal run of the mile cabin not with Tony bank rolling the whole thing. It was a rustic 4 story cabin with 3 rooms on each floor, a huge fire place that literally sat in the middle of the house (you didnt really cared how it worked you just knew it looked cool), a huge kitchen and living room sat on the first floor.

"I cant believe i let him talk me into that." You mummbled making your way to the fire place. Clint, your wonderful older brother had decided that the team should have a snow ball fight, you know "team building exercise" as he called it. You had of course been on opposing sides since it would be fair for two Bartons to be on the same team as Tony had said.

"You should know his tricks by now y/n, you've only known him all your life." Nat laughed walking in the door after you shacking snow from her hair.

"I didnt expect him to peg me in the side of the damn head. OR tackle me to the ground and shove my face in the snow." You grumbled. "Hes lucky he ran before I could get up."

"I'm pretty sure he's hidding in a tree somewhere." She laughed again.

"Good, the bird can stay in his roost for all I care. I'm going to go take a nice hot shower and a nap. Let the others know please." You walked off toward the steps that lead to yours and your boyfriends room. "Hey Nat, try to make sure the others are nice to Loki? The only reason hes here is so that he could try to get closer to them."

"Yeah, him being able to spend as much time with you as possible was not his intentions at all." She stated rollingbher eyes.

"Thanks." You went and took the hottest shower you could stand enjoying the steam as it enveloped you before you got out wrapped yourself up in a big fluffy towle and made your way into the living area. This was another nice room, hell every inch of this place was nice though. It wasnt like your "mini apartment" as you liked to call your room at the tower, but it still had a seprate smaller living area with a couch and a recliner, the bed was on the oyher side of a patrician looking out of the floor to celing window. You didnt want to lay there because it was so bright so after digging around in your bag and pulling out a pair of black shorts and one of Lokis green pullovers you decided to crash on the couch. After a few minutes of watching some random cooking show you dozed off engulfed in your boyfriends sent lulling you to your dream world.

You woke with a start when you felt something pressong aginst your forehead, you felt like you hadnt been asleep for very long, lookinh atound you realized first that it was dark outside, and second your muscles all over was sore and stiff feeling.

"Shhhh, Its just me, my darling." Loki ran his hand down your cheek softly. "I came to check on you, I realized you must not be feeling good when you were whimpering in your sleep." You then noticed that your throat was sore.

"I dont whimper." It came out horse, youtried to clear your throat as much as you could.

"You did, it was adorable." He smiled. He walked around the couch to take a seat next to you. "Your not feeling well. I can feel it." He had a look of worry. He always went on and on about how vulnerable mortals were and you wasnt doing anything to prove him wrong at this moment.

"Loki, I promise the worst this is is a cold that I technically caught from my idiot brother. Ill be fine in a few days. The only thing that aucks is I'll be stuck in here while the rest of you are out having the time of your lives." You huffed pulling the pillow under your head better.

"The rest of you? My dove, I can promise there is no rest of you if your not going to be there. The only reason I came on this dreaded team building experience is because of you." He offered you his hand and helped you stand so that he could guide you to the bed. "Lets lay here and watch the snow fall." He pulled your side of the blankets down and help you under them.

"That sounds like a plan Loki. Although I am a little hungry." You sat in bed as you watched him strip from the clothes he had been wearing all day and changing into a pair of black sleep pants. He started digging again. "I have your hoodie on." He looked over and shook his head with a smile.

"It looks better on you anyways. Of course I should have known that you would try to get me naked." He laughed. "Your brother saod he would bring something up in a bit. I had text him and told him you wasnt feeling all that well."

You stared in shock, "Textjng my brother? Looks like you have made some new friends."

"I wouldnt go that far, he said that he was afraid of you even if you were sick and I was probably the safest one in the room. He is going to vring a peace offering though." He pulled the blankets up around him as he settled in bed.

"The hawk shouldnt have flown his roost. Ill kill him once I get to feeling better." You grumbled.

"Sleep now my darling, get some rest. When we wake in the morning, of you are feeling any better, we will plot domination over your brother then." You felt him wrap his arms around you and kiss the top of your head before drifting off once more.

Never Quite Free (Natasha x Reader)

Summary: Natasha grows concerned after you start ignoring her and decides to check on you.

!TW WARNINGS: Implied sexual assault, PTSD, and panic attacks! (lots of fluff near the end to make up for it i promise)

A/N: just a vent fic,,, as a treat. The song referenced in the fic is Never Quite Free by The Mountain Goats, in case you want to listen to it for context though you don't have to.

It's all good to learn that right outside your window There's only friendly fields and open roads And you'll sleep better when you think You've stepped back from the brink And found some peace inside yourself Laid down your heavy load It gets all right to dream at night Believe in solid skies and slate blue earth below But when you see him you'll know

For the longest time, going out into the world was like maneuvering across a field of landmines. The bombs could be set off by nearly anything, from minute details that had latched themselves to the back of your mind to glaring reminders that were almost impossible to ignore. Anything and everything that reminded you of him had seeped its way into the cracks in your brain, leaving irreparable stains and water damage in its wake. From the smell of cedar and pine aftershave to the brassy sound of a jazz trumpet on a passing radio, these reminders were minuscule as thumbtacks, and yet they felt like railroad spikes being hammered into your chest and skull.

In the past, you would bury yourself in work or drink yourself nearly to death to escape his ever-present grasp on your mind. Your life had been filled with you shoveling meaningless noise into your routine in attempts to block out the alarm that always seemed a pin trigger away from sounding in your head. Then, you met Natasha. You learned that she knew over seven languages and almost exclusively cussed in Russian when she was pissed enough. You memorized her favorite shows and books and how she snored like a lawnmower when she laid on her left side- a fact she vehemently denied. Natasha Romanov was caring, smart, strong, and oh so protective.

It's okay to find the faith to saunter forward With no fear of shadows spreading where you stand And you'll breathe easier just knowing that the worst is all behind you And the waves that tossed the raft all night have set you on dry land It gets okay to praise the day Believe in sheltering skies and stable earth beneath

These little bits of information filled your mind and heart with endearment and love, thoroughly pushing the smell of cedar aftershave and rot to the far back of your mind. And that was where he stayed for the longest time. For a whole two years, you filled your days with movie dates, forehead kisses, and late-night cuddles. She introduced you to her friends, Steve Rogers, Carol Danvers, Wanda Maximoff; you even befriended Tony Stark- though Natasha never explicitly refers to him as a friend. Everything was going so well for the first time since before you met him. But, like a cockroach, your past is not so easily killed.

But hear his breath come through his teeth,

Walk by faith Tell no one what you've seen

You were at a local coffee shop when you noticed him. He was sitting at the table adjacent to yours, scrolling through his laptop, briefcase at his side. When you beheld him, it was as if your muscles were turning to concrete slabs. They were dragging you down, below the faded wooden floorboards, below the concrete foundation, until you were choking on dirt and rocks. It took you nearly five minutes to realize it was not him. However, him or not, the damage was done. Because you had seen his well-kempt mustache and graying sideburns, had seen his eyes the color of a lethal tundra. You could have sworn you felt those eyes watch you as you rushed out of the café and into the crowded streets.

From that day on, he was back. He visited you in sleep and trailed you all throughout work—a hefty shadow. However, it was not until you were in bed with Natasha that it came to its tipping point.

Your fiancée, having noticed your peculiar attitude, had decided to surprise you with a night of candles and wine. Not wanting her to be more concerned than she already was, you played along. You forced yourself to reciprocate every kiss and caress despite the acid in your throat and the timpani in your chest. Eventually, Natasha swept you off your feet into a bridal style carry and led you into her bedroom. Gently setting you on the bed, she quickly straddled your hips. Leaning down, she cupped your cheeks and pulled you into a heated kiss. You swallowed down bile and half-heartedly opened your mouth to allow her tongue space to explore. She groaned and tore off her shirt as she pulled away from you.

"God, you're so sexy," she murmured, grinding her hips further against your abdomen. Natasha grabbed at your shirt, pulling it off your torso before chucking it across the room. You felt your throat tighten as your upper body was exposed to the elements. Your fiancée set about yanking off your sweatpants, murmuring bits of praise under her breath as she did so. Her gentle lithe hands seemed to grown more masculine and rough the longer they touched your bare skin. Her body morphed into the familiar form of a naked man. His sickeningly familiar graying mustache and coarse chest hair set flares of frigid panic through your body. He was here, he was here, hewasherehewashere.

Your body convulsed and kicked out at your assailant; flashes of his rough hands forcing your legs apart fueled the strength behind your attacks as you lunged to your feet. You shoved him off of you with a borderline unhinged snarl.

"Get the fuck away from me, Castor!" You screamed before hurriedly shoving on your clothes and sprinting out the door of the apartment. He was following you. You could hear his heavy footsteps thudding behind you. Your thighs burned from the sudden exercise, and the roaring in your ears drowned out your surroundings. You shoved your way into the elevator, nearly punching the first-floor button with your fist. Sweat dripped down the nape of your neck as you struggled to suck in breaths of air. Clutching your chest, you allowed your knees to collapse.

When the elevator slid open, you shot to your feet and ran through the lobby, out into the cool night. You clumsily pushed people aside, his voice clawing through your ear canal. You wildly waved down a taxi and slid into the back. Your voice was as flimsy as tissue paper as you gave the driver your address.

When you got home, you slid all three locks into place and snapped your curtains shut. You huddled under your blanket and slowly succumbed to a sleepless night.

Natasha was many things, but a worrier was not one of them. Why should she spend all her time fretting when she could just get up and solve the damn problem herself? However, after three days of complete radio silence on your end, she was sorely tempted to break into your apartment. That night, you had rushed out of her apartment as if the Devil himself had been at your heels. The look in your eyes had been that of a wounded animal. Natasha felt her stomach clench with anxiety as she stared down at her phone. 37 texts, 10 calls, 10 voicemails, and not a single message answered. You were always a punctual texter, which only made her worry worsen.

Natasha shoved her phone back in her back pocket and took a long sip of her coffee. What the hell could have caused you to run out of her apartment mid-sex? Not to mention, who the hell was Castor? Natasha finished off her coffee and set her red and black spider mug in the sink. The cup had been a 6-month anniversary gift, and she made sure to drink out of it every chance she got. After cleaning up the last of her breakfast, Natasha pulled out her phone once more and typed out another message.

Nat: darling I've tried giving you space but its been 3 days and I'm worried. I'm coming over.

Natasha moved to put the device away; however, after a second, she reconsidered it and unlocked it once more.

Nat: I love you <3

Pushing the phone into her pocket, she rushed out the door. When Natasha arrived at your apartment door, she immediately pulled out her phone once more. Nothing. She huffed a shaky breath and pulled out her copy of the apartment key. You had given it to her after you almost burnt down your apartment trying to cook for their date that night. She had to rush over to your apartment to clean up the damage done by the small grease fire and cook you both last-minute spaghetti.

She twisted the key in the lock and quietly pushed the door open. The apartment felt akin to a tomb. The curtains were drawn, and all the lights were off. Dirty dishes were piled up Tetris style in and around the sink, not to mention the empty takeout containers strewn throughout the living room and dining table. The TV was quietly playing It Chapter 2, yet you were nowhere in sight.

Worry continued to grip the assassin's chest as she called out, "Y/n, kotyonok are you here?" Being cautious of the numerous fast-food containers and clothing items thrown about, Natasha made her way towards your bedroom door. She hesitated for a moment before steeling her nerves and carefully knocking on your door. For a moment, she heard nothing, only the faint sound of Pennywise's voice coming from the living room. Then, just as she turned the knob to open the door, she heard whimpering. Her heart ramped up to a gallop as she quickly opened the door to your bedroom.

Natasha was certain she had seen war zone's tidier than this. Clothes covered nearly every inch of the bedroom, mattress, and wardrobe. Not to mention the numerous crumpled tissues and fallen picture frames. However, the state of your room was hardly her first concern because in the center of it all, huddled in shaking ball, was you. Painful sobs were rasping from your lips as you burrowed your face further into your knees. Your hair was tangled and greasy, and you were wearing one of Natasha's sweaters with a food-stained pair of boxer shorts.

The assassin felt sorely tempted to sprint across the rooms and scoop you into her arms. Instead, she went for the safer route, which was carefully wading through the mess over to your side of the bed. Tutting quietly, Natasha swallowed the urge to cry alongside you as she quietly cleared her throat. "Mon trésor, can you hear me?" she whispered, setting a hand next to your own, cautious not to make contact.

Instead of a relieved smile or a tired 'yes' like Natasha had expected, your entire body flinched away as if you had been punched. Your eyes snapped open as you scrambled across the bed, looking around hysterically. "Castor?" you called out, eyes wild with panic.

Natasha furrowed her brows and backed away from you. "Y/n it's me, Nat. I'm not here to hurt you; I just needed to see if you were okay."

Slowly, your eyes shone with recognition. Your body, however, remained as taught as before as you studied your fiancée carefully as if she was a trick or a mirage. Natasha felt her heart fracture slightly at the display of fear. "Nat?" Your voice was quiet and raspy; if she had not seen your mouth move, she would not have registered that you were speaking.

"Yes, kotyonok, it's me."

You furrowed your brows and brought your knees back up to your chest. "Wha-what're you doing here?" You asked, your voice slurred and shaky from the sobs racking your body.

Natasha carefully sat down on the edge of the bed, "I have been so worried about you. After you ran out on me a few days ago, I have been trying to check to see if you are okay."

Your face crumbled once more as you buried your face in your knees, "I-I'm," you hiccup, "Sorry, Nat."

Natasha tutted dotingly and slid back so that she sat beside you, still cautious not to touch. "Hey, hey, it's okay, darling. You're okay; just breathe for me. Can you do that, sweetie?"

You inhaled quick stuttering breathe, which quickly dissolved into hyperventilating. You clutched at your hair and squeezed your eyes shut.

Your fiancée watched with a heartbroken expression, "You're okay, you're okay, just keep trying. Can I touch you?" You nodded shakily as she pulled you onto her lap. Gently, she pulled your fists from your hair and replaced them with her own. She stroked your knotted locks and quietly cooed sweet nothings into your ear. She guided your fist to rest atop her chest as she whispered, "Copy my breathing okay, mon trésor?" Sucking in exaggerated breaths, she held her hand atop your own to keep it in place. After a few tries, your breathing eventually settled, and you let out a long whimpery sigh.

It's all good to learn that from right here the view goes on forever And you'll never want for comfort and you'll never be alone See the sunset turning red let all be quiet in your head And look about, all the stars are coming out They shine like steel swords Wish me well where I go But when you see me you'll know

Natasha smiled and kissed the top of your head, "You're doing so well, my love. Nothings going to get you while I'm here, I promise."

You burrowed further into her lap and placed your head atop her chest, letting the sound of her steady heartbeat soothe you into a lull. The two of you sat there for what seemed like eons as you soaked in the feeling of safety and warmth. Natasha hummed quietly, placing chaste kisses on the crown of your head every once in a while.

Sucking in a breath, you spoke, "He was a family friend." Natasha's humming stopped as she looked down at you. "His name was Castor Davids, and my dad met him at work. He was nice at first, sort of like a goofy rich uncle. He would always buy me new toys and books. He would even take me out for ice cream. Even when I got into fights with my parents, I knew I could always talk to him when I was upset. But then..." you gulped, your voice breaking. Natasha continued stroking your hair. "But then one day, he was babysitting me while my parents were out at a baby shower. H-he..." Your words broke off into a sob, and your fiancée quickly shushed you.

"You're safe; you're here with me. No one can hurt you, I promise. Just relax, darling. Thank you for trusting me enough to tell me that you're safe now." Eventually, after a few more minutes of comforting words and protective hugs, the phantom hands that had been grasping at you for days disappeared.

You burrowed your head further into her chest and huffed, " 'm sorry I ran out on you the other night. I shoulda texted."

Natasha chuckled humorlessly, "Darling, that is the least of my worries. What I am worried about, however, is the last time you had an actual healthy dinner." You looked down at your lap sheepishly and shrugged. Natasha playfully pinched your side and untangled herself from your hold. You whined at the loss of contact and looked up at her accusingly. "I am going to make you a proper dinner, and we are going to sit down and watch stupid TV shows."

You huffed, "Can we watch House Hunters?"

Natasha sighed and nodded, "Fine, only because I love you, though." You grinned and slid out of bed. Your fiancée inspected you with a grimace, "First, we're going to take a shower."
