10 & 19!

Hello, love ❤️

10 What song sums up this year for you?

I thought about this one for a while and finally narrowed it to two:

Carry You, because this year was nothing if not a reminder that I have some phenomenal people in my corner. Even though most aren’t physically close, I could not have survived 2023 without your love. In all the ways it was provided.

And this one should be pretty obvious 💕

19 What was one nice thing you did for yourself?

Got a tattoo to remind me to love myself, even when my body or mind aren't behaving the way I want them to.

send an end of year ask

——

landonorris I’m going to try and keep this as brief as possible because Y/n is incredibly special to me and I would like to keep the best parts of her to myself, but, yes, I do have a girlfriend. As you can probably gather, her name is Y/n and she’s been my lifeline for the past 5 years. I know this picture doesn’t really do justice to how she looks or how we are as a couple, but I’ve found that I would like to keep it that way. She’s someone I hold very close to my heart and keeping the quiet, intimate moments just for us is a high priority for me. All I ask from all of you is that you treat her with the kindness she deserves and don’t bombard her on social media. I’ve kept her away from the spotlight for a long time and have only made her presence known because keeping her a secret seemed worse than letting the F1 world into that part of my life. I’m glad you’ve gotten to meet my love. I plan on spending the rest of my life with her. Xx

mclarensgirlll YALL SEEN THE INTERVIEW WITH LANDO????????? BRO IM CRYING HES SO CUTE

- ln4andop81 reporter: “were you nervous to let everyone know about her?” Lando: “well, the drivers, my friends, and family all knew i had met someone because apparently, according to them, i had a different look in my eyes. So, announcing it to them wasnt that nerve racking because they already knew, but, to the public, yeah, I was nervous. More nervous than she was.” Reporter: “so she was nervous?” Lando: “only because she thought no one was going to like her which is and was absurd. She’s the greatest human being I’ve ever met. There’s genuinely no scenario I could think of that someone would end up even slightly disliking her.” BRO.

- Lando-my-love AND THE WAY HE TALKED ABT FIRST SEEING HER 😫😫 “it was like my eyes were glued to her. I guess i was just so in shock someone could be that beautiful and, sometimes, i still am.”

- mclarenfan22 DONT GET ME STARTED ON HIS PROTECTION OF HER BYE “well, she’s just so perfect to me. The world I live in can be ruthless and unfair and messy, all the things she isn’t. I love her that way. I love her for that. She’s my quiet place I can go to when my job and lifestyle get to be too much. She’s like a time out and we both agreed we want to keep it that way.”

- oscarandlando4ever PLZ THE WAY OSCAR EXPOSED HIM TOO “when she’s around, Lando is so much more tolerable. She can calm him in a way I have never seen before. In fact, the engineers and I all agreed around a year ago that she needed to start coming to races because he was always a hot head if it didn’t go well. When we found a way to sneak her in and she did start attending events, he actually started to breathe if things didn��t go his way.”

- mclarensgirlll AND THEN THE WAY LANDO ENDED THE INTERVIEW WITH “But anyways, i could talk about her for hours, something i told myself i wouldn’t do. I’m in love with her and I just hope people understand we want to be left alone for a while. Just until we get married.” CRYING BC I THINK HES RLLY OFF THE MARKET THIS TIME

- oscarpiastri i know all of you want me to “spill” but really all i can tell you is that, yes, norizz officially rizzed his perfect girl and, yes, he is really off the market this time.

Pencil You In

Pairing: Bucky Barnes x Female Reader Summary: Bucky thinks you've been working too hard and need a break. Word Count: Over 1.3k Warnings: Fluff, crying, reader is tired, slight insecurities, Bucky Barnes (he's a warning, okay?). A/N: Partially inspired by an image the beautiful @bucksangel sent me and life stretching me a bit thin, here's a little ficlet. Lovelies, take breaks. You deserve them and you are more than enough! ❤️ Not beta read and written on my phone, so any and all mistakes are my own. Please follow @navybrat817-sideblog for new fics and notifications. Comments, reblogs, feedback are loved and appreciated!

You slumped in your chair of your home office as you reread the sentence on the screen for what felt like the hundredth time. Weariness had already settled deep in your bones long before you looked over the document, the words blurring together the longer you stared. Blinking a few times didn’t help as you reached for your mug, only to remember that you had finished your extra helping of caffeine an hour ago. Begrudgingly, you set it down and huffed as if it was somehow the fault of the cup that it didn’t automatically fill itself.

“Almost done,” you whispered to yourself, straightening up so you could do one last readthrough.

It was a long week in what felt like a series of long weeks. Almost every minute of your schedule was accounted for lately and all you wanted to do was relax. People were depending on you though and you could relax over the weekend.

Hopefully.

“You should take a break.”

You didn’t turn around immediately at the sound of Bucky’s gentle voice, but you did manage a smile when you glanced over your shoulder a moment later. He didn’t return the smile, concern swirling in his blue irises. You were afraid to stare into the pool of his eyes for too long out of fear of drowning.

And, god, you were drowning. It would be so easy to reach out and take the lifeline that was his hand. To just admit that you need some time to rest because you were tired. Hadn’t you earned it? Didn’t you deserve a break after the hard work you put in?

But maybe you didn’t deserve it. What you did wasn’t as important as someone like Bucky. You firmly shut the door on that thought before the words could make their way out of your mouth. If he could’ve read your mind and known you thought that, it would’ve disappointed him. Not in you, but whoever made you decide that what you did wasn’t enough.

Because you were always expected to do and be more.

“I will in a few minutes,” you said.

He let out a heavy sigh as he crossed his arms, making you tear your gaze away. You didn’t comment on his disheveled hair, like he kept running a hand through it. Likely because he worried about you stretching yourself too thin. “That was what you said a few minutes ago,” he reminded you, his voice light instead of accusatory.

You shut your eyes in the hopes that the tears wouldn’t come and took a breath. “I really will this time,” you promised, giving the document one last readthrough once you got your emotions under control.

“I’ll hold you to that,” he said.

If you wouldn’t take a break for your own sake, you had to do it for Bucky.

“Okay. I think that’s at a good stopping point,” you said, making you saved it before you closed it out. If you lost all of that after everything you put into it so far, you would’ve lost it. Before you could move to the next task on your list though, an alert popped up on your screen. Your heart dropped to your stomach because you didn’t remember scheduling anything else today. You didn’t have the mental or emotional capacity for more. “What is this?” You mumbled before you opened it.

Reading the subject line, you did a double take.

CUDDLE WITH BUCKY

You covered your mouth to smother your giggles. “I don’t remember scheduling this meeting.”

“It’s a good thing I remembered, baby,” he said as you spun around in your chair, sauntering over to you with a smirk as you tried not to laugh again. “It’s a mandatory meeting in our bed. No rescheduling. And I expect it to go the full hour. Maybe longer.”

“How did you manage to set up an alert on my computer?” You asked as he grasped your hands and helped you to your feet, having to steady yourself a bit when your head spun.

At least you remembered to eat. Well, that wasn’t technically true. Bucky brought you your meal earlier because he was the best boyfriend you could ask for.

“A magician never reveals his secrets,” he winked before he brought a palm to your cheek, his gaze shifting to something more serious. “But it seemed to get your attention.”

Your cheeks burned as you averted your gaze. “I wasn’t…” you trailed off, an apology on the tip of your tongue. Had you neglected him this past week? Or the ones before that?

Did he think you were a bad girlfriend?

Bucky slid his hand to your chin so you’d look at him again. “Hey,” he whispered when your lower lip trembled. “I didn’t mean anything by that and I’m not upset with you. I don’t think I could ever be upset with you. But, baby, you’ve been working your ass off even more than usual. I’m so fucking proud of you, but you need to take a real break.”

Your eyes burned, but no tears surfaced as he searched your gaze. “But-”

“What is it you always tell me about work?”

“That it’ll be there tomorrow, but we may not be” you answered, sighing. He was right. You couldn’t let work and expectations others set for you take control of your life. “I told you that the last time you ran yourself ragged with missions.”

He brought his mouth to your forehead to kiss it, his scruff tickling your skin. “And now I’m returning the favor,” he said against your skin. “So, come to bed. Lay with me. Just…”

“Be present,” you finished.

No phones. No work. No outside forces interfering. Just the pleasure of being with each other.

“Exactly,” he said, tugging you by the hand. “C’mon. We’re both late for our meeting.”

“Yes, Sir,” you teased, smiling when he groaned.

“This is a cuddle meeting, but it’ll turn into gently fucking you to sleep if you keep talking like that,” he warned you, pulling you to bed a bit faster.

“You say that like that’s a bad thing,” you smiled, gasping as he gently pushed you onto the mattress.

He braced a hand on each side of your head as he leaned down, his breath fanning your face when you whimpered. “Sex after we cuddle,” he breathed, sending a shiver down your spine. “Then we can cuddle again.”

You leaned up to brush your lips against his. “Deal,” you agreed.

Once he maneuvered you to the middle of the bed, his large body spooning yours, you couldn’t stop the tears that came. You bit your lip so he wouldn’t hear your soft sobs, but he must’ve sensed them as he grazed his nose along your neck affectionately and pulled you closer in his arms. You didn’t realize just how much you needed to be held until then.

It was as if all the stress faded away.

“I really am proud of you. Hardest working woman I know and always taking care of me,” he whispered, pressing a kiss to your pulse as more tears hit the pillow.

“Because I love you, Bucky,” you whispered. Who wouldn’t want to take care of someone as amazing as James Buchanan Barnes?

“And I love you, too. So much,” he swore to you, turning you in his arms so he could kiss the tears away. The first kiss lingered on your cheek as he let out a shuddering breath. The sight of you crying likely broke his heart, but he didn’t say anything about it for your sake. “So let me be your personal hero today, okay? Let me take care of you and show that you’re more than enough.”

The words were so heartfelt and touching that you were surprised you didn’t melt on the spot. “You already are,” you promised before his lips met yours.

And he could pencil himself in for cuddles and more whenever he wanted.

I'll say it again, lovelies, you deserve breaks and you are more than enough. Love and thanks for reading! ❤️

🍒 Seungcheol's arms are the safest place on earth

Seungcheol x gn! reader | fluff | approx. 600 words | no warnings A/n: so... remember the little baby drabble i said i was writing specially for you? here it is @brownsugarbaybee ❤️

When you’re feeling down, you would often think about Seungcheol’s arms. Yes, one reason is because his arms are extremely attractive and it lifts your mood. But more importantly, Seungcheol’s arms are the safest place on earth. 

Seungcheol is so protective over you, he’s practically like your guard dog. Like scary dog privileges? Check! No matter where you are, whether you’re at home, in a quiet street or shop, at a loud party, or an extremely crowded street, Seungcheol makes an effort to keep an eye on you. Even if you are someone who is more conscious of your surroundings, it’s basically second nature to him at this point. 

Seungcheol is always ready to step in to protect you from anything, anyone, and everything. At the first signs of danger or if he sees you being uncomfortable, you don’t need to say anything, he’s already there. Often, he uses his arms (and hands) to pull you away from danger like falling objects or people intentionally/ unintentionally bumping into you. Or, he would use his arms to physically shield you from any danger that comes your way. 

There has certainly been more than one occasion when you’re at home or in a store trying to reach something on the higher shelf when an object starts to fall on you. Instead of it hitting you, you always look up to see Seungcheol’s arms between you on the falling object. He never ever scolds you for being clumsy or not asking him for help. Instead, he’s just happy that he was able to protect you. The bumps, scrapes, and bruises littered on his arm don’t bother him. In fact, he’s rather proud of them. It means he was able to save you from feeling that pain. Plus, it helps that you tenderly look after his injuries and give him kisses after. 

Besides that, Seungcheol’s arms are like your lifeline. He’s always happy to let you cling onto his arm whenever you want. He finds it so endearing that he’s basically your comfort person. You cling onto his arm in crowded places so you don’t get lost and also to soothe the overwhelming feeling of just being in a crowd. You practically cling onto his arm anywhere at any time. It brings you comfort. Something about clinging onto his arms grounds you. It helps to calm you when your nerves are in overdrive. Of course, the physical touch and close proximity to his person helps too. 

Big strong muscular arms = warmest, best hugs. Seungcheol loves to swing his arms around you. From the front, from the back, around your waist, hips, legs(?), you name it, his arms have been around it before. He loves bringing you closer to him. And no matter how warm it gets, you can’t help but adore being hugged by him. Whether you are happy, sad, or just feeling a complex mix of emotions, Seungcheol is always there for you with his arms outstretched, ready for you to dive into them. 

When Seungcheol envelopes you in his arms, it’s like the feeling of a warm, weighted blanket being wrapped around you on the coldest of winter nights. At the same time, it feels like a different kind of weight, an emotional or mental one, has been lifted from your person. It’s the feeling of coming home and being able to finally relax. The physical sight and feeling of his arms wrapping around you also feels like you are taking refuge behind a large, resilient shield. One that would hide you away and protect you from all the hardship in the world. 

Seungcheol’s arms being around you brings physical protection, mental stability, emotional reprieve, comfort, love, the feeling of home, a feeling of liberation, and protection all at once. And there's no place else you would rather be.

The Best News of Last Week - September 11, 2023

Sorry for not sending last week's issue as I got covid again :/ I passed it, so here's the best things that happened last week :)

1. The IRS plans to crack down on 1,600 millionaires to collect millions of dollars in back taxes

The IRS announced on Friday it is launching an effort to aggressively pursue 1,600 millionaires and 75 large business partnerships that owe hundreds of millions of dollars in past due taxes.

3. Mexico supreme court decriminalizes abortion across country

Mexico’s supreme court has unanimously ruled that state laws prohibiting abortion are unconstitutional and violate women’s rights, in the latest in a series of victories for reproductive rights activists across Latin America.

Wednesday’s ruling came two years after the court ordered the northern state of Coahuila to remove sanctions for abortion from its criminal code, a decision which prompted a tortuous state-by-state process of legal battles. So far 12 of Mexico’s 31 states have decriminalized the procedure.

[lost-in-lamentation]

Hey, it’s about 1 am-ish and I’m in a real angsty mood I was wondering if you could do Lucifer, mammon, and Diavolo with their respective MC dying in their arms.

Ty

❤️❤️❤️

a/n: angst is here.

request: MC dying (not peacefully) in their arms. (see end author notes).

warnings: there is blood and injuries, MC dies, mammon swears once, the characters are sad, and there is absolutely no comfort in this fic.

important! once again, this is hurt/no comfort. make sure you’re okay with that before reading on.

diavolo, mammon, lucifer x gen!reader. (separate.)

you were confused. you laid on your back, the sky above you shifting from a deep red into pitch black. a liquid warmth covered your stomach, spilling over your side and soaking the soil beneath you. with a groan, you attempted to turn onto your shoulder, but you were stopped when you felt a sharp pain shoot through your side. you cried out at the feeling, and that’s when you heard him calling your name in the distance.

═  ˎˊ˗

diavolo.

diavolo had never run faster in his life. at the sound of your mangled and strained voice, diavolo bolted through the forest, not caring if he trampled the plants or animals along the way. his wings propelled him forward with each stride, practically blowing through the trees until he finally reached you. the ruler of devildom had never felt so helpless before; but now, seeing you laid out on the ground with barely a flicker of life in your eyes, diavolo wanted nothing more than to succumb to the same fate that seemed to be nearing you. he breathed shallow, hand shaking as he brought it to hover over your bleeding wound. "MC?" 

his voice, though desperate and quiet, still managed to cut through the ringing in your ears. shakily, you turned your head towards his voice, unable to see him clearly through your blurry vision. "dia… hi," you slurred. you lifted your arm weakly, trying to take his hand in yours. diavolo placed his hand where you could find it, but his trembling didn't go unnoticed. "dia, what's wrong? you're-" your voice caught in your throat, forcing a harsh cough out of you. 

"no, don't talk," diavolo whimpered, bringing your hand up to touch it to his forehead. 

you smiled up at the demon, sliding out of his grip to caress his face. "you're so sweet, you know that?" diavolo immediately felt his stomach drop. "always… always looking out for me. always being a good leader," you choked out, blood threatening to overflow from your open wound. "make sure you look out for the brothers for me, hm?" 

diavolo inhaled sharply, pushing your hands away and leaning himself over you. his elbows dug into the ground on either side of your head as he pressed his forehead to yours. your eyes closed at the proximity, but you could feel his tears seeping into your skin as they fell onto your cheeks. "don't be ridiculous, MC," he argued, his fingers tearing into the soil. "we'll have barbatos turn back time. he can change this!"

"... no, dia. that's not how it works," you whispered, your own voice struggling to be heard. "you know that." you raised your hand to his shoulder, gripping onto it as your final lifeline. "let me g-"

"you're supposed to rule with me!" 

the echoes rang through the air. you opened your eyes one final time to meet his. "let me go," you pleaded, your voice breaking at the same time as his heart. 

diavolo didn't, couldn't, say anything in return. the last thing you heard was a roar befitting the ruler of devildom, before finally falling into the abyss.

mammon.

"you're bleeding, you're bleeding…" mammon gasped from above you, his words dripping with fear. an arm hooked underneath the small of your back, and you immediately recoiled away from the touch with a yelp. mammon drew his arms back, his lower jaw quivering as you choked on your own blood. "i'm sorry, i'm so sorry," mammon cried, falling to his knees next to your shaking body.

you shuddered with the effort to breathe, reaching to run your fingers through his hair, just the way mammon liked. the avatar of greed only sobbed harder at the feeling, pounding his fist into ground before tearing your hand away. in seconds, mammon had straightened his back and pulled you into him, pressing your fading warmth into himself. if these really were your final moments, mammon was going to make sure you felt him. "ma- mammon, not so tight." you laughed weakly, trying to get him to smile.

mammon shook his head almost violently, starting to hyperventilate. "why are ya actin' like this?!" he shouted into your ear, arms practically constricting around you. "actin'... actin' like you're fine, you're bleeding!"

"i am fine, mams, you're overreacting-"

"you're fucking dying!" the tension in the air hung by a thread. you could have sworn you heard it snap when mammon's voice broke the silence. "you're dying, and i can't- i won't lose you!"

you gazed at him softly, holding your side to staunch the blood from spilling out. "you're gonna get blood on your jacket," you whispered, tugging on the familiar brown leather you had stolen from him multiple times.

mammon stifled a sob, biting down on his lip. "stupid human," he stuttered, pressing his face into your neck. "i don't care about it, but we need to get you back home, lucifer and satan will know what to do, so stay with me, MC, okay? got it?"

your head rolled onto his, the weight comforting for the demon. "hey, promise me something?"

"don't start with that!" mammon sobbed into your neck.

you carried on despite his protests. "make sure lucifer gets breaks, okay? and don't mess with your brothers too much, they all look up to you. be a good role model for once."

"stop, please," he wailed now, feeling your warmth begin to leave him behind.

with your last bit of remaining strength, you wrapped your arms around his waist, whispering into his hair one final time, "i love you."

mammon felt his world break apart when your arms loosened. "i love you too," he cried softly, words falling on deaf ears.

lucifer.

lucifer tended to your wounds immediately, ripping his cloak off and wrapping it around your midsection in a desperate attempt to stop the bleeding. "MC, do not close your eyes. stay awake, stay focused on me."

delirious from the blood loss, you smiled at him. his expression was intense as always, but for once, you saw the unbridled concern carved into his features, tears running down his cheeks. "i don't think i've ever seen you cry, luci."

lucifer clenched his jaw, forcing himself to look away from the face he had grown to love. "this is not the time for jokes." he pressed the fabric harder onto the gash in your side, his entire body shuddering in fear when he saw the grey cloth turn scarlet instantly. "i'll bring you to simeon, his magic should be powerful enough to save you."

you winced at the pressure lucifer was using on your wound. gently, you grabbed onto his wrist, weakly tugging it away from your body. lucifer gaped at you, his gaze becoming frantic when he realised what you were doing. he inaudibly questioned you, mouth forming the words "what" and "why" repeatedly, but lucifer never actually spoke them out. "anyone ever tell you how pretty your eyes are, luci?"

lucifer wiped the tears that collected on his lashes away angrily. "i have no need for such words."

"maybe, but you should at least know." the avatar of pride felt his resolve weaken with every word that fell from your lips. you watched as he brought the cloak back to your side, but you pushed him away again after a few beats of silence. "no, lucifer."

he snapped his head to look at you, voice raising in confusion and frustration. "why?" lucifer glared at you now, his hands trembling. "why do you refuse?"

you reached out to him, gesturing for him to come closer. "it's already too late, so… let it just be us," you confessed, pulling down on his collar so his face hovered above yours.

lucifer had thought heartbreak would get easier the second time around; it wasn't true. his life shattered before his eyes as your breaths became shallow. "you can't leave me like this," he begged you, stroking your cheek delicately. "please don't leave me alone."

you brought your hand up to the one that rested on your cheek. "you're never alone, lucifer. your brothers will always be here. and i will be too." you laughed one last time, bright as ever on one of the darkest days of lucifer's life.

"say it all again," lucifer sobbed into your shoulder, desperately grabbing the hand that once held his. "say anything," he pleaded, only to be greeted by the absence of you.

a/n: nani nani nani i absolutely loved the way you hopped in again to clarify the angst
