maybe a blurb/headcanon about surfing with jj?? that sounds adorable to me :))

Ahh!! Very very late but here it is my love!! I hope you love it

*******************************************************

As much as you hated the ocean and the water, you could never say no to seeing JJ on a surfboard.

The pogues often wondered how you were 17 and still didn’t have the ability to swim or surf.

In your defense, you weren’t very sporty growing up and tried to avoid the beach as much as possible because of the fear.

Eventually, JJ started wanting to take you to the beach for dates once you started dating.

When you explained your fear of water, JJ took it upon himself to become the best surfing teacher possible for you to learn.

“You just have to balance baby,” JJ laughed as you tried, and failed to stay standing on your surfboard.

“It’s that simple,” he said. “You just stand and the waves will take you.”

“Wait,” you laughed as you balanced on your board, JJ gripping your hands as he stood in front of you. “I think I’ve got it.”

“See,” he beamed. “I knew you would do it.”

Soon enough, you got better and better at surfing with JJ taking you to the beach almost every night to practice.

It’s safe to say that the pogues were very impressed with your skills the next time you all met at the beach

Rules: list five things you never get tired of writing. It can be tropes, themes, characters, phrases, whatever brings you joy. Then tag five people!

thank you so so much @seidenbros have i told you how much i appreciate you today? cause i do ✨🌸

enemies to lovers: i fucking love love love this trope! the angst?! oh my oh my 🔥 i am so in love with my boys - spike, damon salvatore, eric northman?! *faints* i’m sure that there’s a few that i missed. nothing sexier than doing something naughty 😏 i have yet to write something for miss tumblrs in this trope but god damn i better hop to it cause it’s my fav

best friends to lovers: i feel like this is also naughty! the angst leading up whether or not you should tell your best friend? how risky the decision is because you could lose them as your closest friend and your hopeful lover? and then when you do tell them and they feel the same? 🗡️ stab me in the heart, the tension is too much to bare!

hurt&comfort: god, this is so so so for me. when you grow up in a family that expects you to take care of everyone (siblings and adults), all you want is comfort and someone to take care of you. love love love writing this. it’s like healing my inner child 💖

smut: who could ever get tired of of this?! i’m really trying to expand my writing here. i’ve been so in love with the details in @seidenbros, @hotxcheeto, and @munsonquinns posts. they inspire me so much rn. (always tag your inspirations). my favorite posts are when the author’s say something along the lines of “is this smut or porn?” 🫣😁🤤

supernatural themes: i am all about that supernatural fantasy and not necessarily just the show! i’m a big fan of anything and everything supernatural! vampire, werewolves, witches, oh my! my favorite is zombies, god damn i love fucking zombies. one of my many goals in life is to write a zombie apocalypse novel. i fucking ✨love✨ zombies (and my queen ellie and my king glenn).

A few people tagged me in this too so thank you, and I’m sorry if I’m retagging you and you’ve already done this 🥰

1. My resilience. I’ve been through A LOT of shit, but I made it through the other side.

2. My big heart. Sometimes it’s more of a bad thing than a good thing, but either way, I’m proud of it and love it.

3. My career. I worked hard to get where I am, and I don’t regret it one bit. I love my career and that it helps provide for my family.

4. My body. I grew a whole human and birthed her for God’s sake. My body is strong and powerful and I’m a damn rockstar for that.

5. My old soul. I don’t always see things the way most people or the “world” does, but I feel like I’m able to empathize with people on a level that most people can’t because of it.

You Don’t Go To Parties | R.C.

Pairing: Rafe Cameron x Reader

Summary: Rafe flashes back on moments in your relationship as he looks for you at his party, even though he knows that he won’t find you.

Based on the song We Don’t Go To Parties by 5SOS

A/N: This is the longest fic I’ve ever written and I think the one I’ve enjoyed the most. This definitely isn’t canon Rafe but it is the Rafe I dream of. Rafe and Sarah are actually close in this because they deserve that and Sarah and Topper aren’t dating cuz I just don’t like them together. Also it is very very very much not proofread like at all

As I am an adult, all characters I write for are written as adults. Any minor characters will be aged up to the general range of their actor’s age.

Warnings: drug and alcohol use, addiction, arguing, harassment, talk of ward being a shitty dad

Word Count: 6.5k

~

25 minutes. That’s how long the party had been going on at the Cameron house. 25 minutes. That was how long Rafe had been looking for you at said party.

He hadn’t even realized he was doing it. Scanning the party every few minutes, his conscious mind chalked it up to wanting to know who was at his house and he left it at that. He didn’t want to think about it any deeper.

Take a shot. Scan the kitchen.

Do a line. Scan the basement.

Play a round of beer pong. Scan the backyard.

“Right, bro? Rafe, have you even heard a word I said?” A shove from Topper brings Rafe back to reality.

“Huh, what? Is it my turn?” Rafe turns back to the card table covered with red solo cups.

“We lost like five minutes ago,” Topper deadpans, “which you would know if you had been paying attention.

Where is your head, bro? It’s like you’re not even here. This is your party.”

Rafe just shrugs in response, scanning the backyard again.

“Who are you looking for?”

Rafe turns back to his friend. “I’m not looking for anyone.”

“Yeah, sure,” Topper says skeptically, “You’re just searching the crowd every few minutes for no reason.” He slaps him on the back. “Real convincing.”

Rafe starts to make a noise of indignation, but Topper is already walking away, leaving him to his thoughts.

As much as he doesn’t want to admit it to himself, Rafe knows exactly who he’s looking for, and he also knows he’ll never find you in the crowd. You don’t go to parties anymore, and he only has himself to blame.

-

(10 Months Earlier)

Growing up middle class in the Outer Banks was a weird experience. You weren’t a pogue and you weren’t a kook, and neither group made any attempt to claim you. You were just you.

You hadn’t wanted for much during your childhood, but you learned not to spend on needless expenses. Your parents taught you the necessity of hard work and they taught you how to budget. You didn’t go to lavish parties, but you weren’t going to bed hungry. As an adult, you worked two jobs, waitressing during the week and bartending on weekends, and your parents pitched in every once and a while to help you pay your rent. You weren’t rich by any means, but thanks to your work ethic and the kindness of your parents, you made it work.

Rafe Cameron grew up in a different world. He splurged endlessly, using up the massive allowance that his dad gave him. He didn’t care about price and he didn’t care about budgeting. Most of all, he had never worked hard a day in his life.

When he comes up to the bar one night while you’re pouring drinks, you don't spare him a second glance. He flashes you that crooked grin and calls you ‘darlin’’, but it doesn't matter. You know Rafe Cameron’s reputation and you don’t get tied up in the games of rich boys. You simply make him his drink and go on with your night.

If We Go Down | J.M.

Pairing: JJ Maybank x Reader

Summary: When JJ gets knocked off the boat and almost drowns, you do everything you can to keep his head above the water. Later, John B tells him how you saved his life.

A/N: I saw a post about jj not knowing kie almost drowned for him and I had to write something based on it. As usual I couldn’t figure out how I wanted to end it so it just cuts off. It’s also not entirely proofread lol

As I am an adult, all characters I write for are written as adults. Any minor characters will be aged up to the general range of their actor’s age.

Warnings: violence, almost drowning

Word Count: 1.5k

-

This was absolutely going down as one of the weirdest weeks of your life, and with everything you and the pogues had gotten up to in the past year, that was saying something. But sneaking onto a ship to save Sarah from her fucked up family and, hopefully, getting back the magical golden cross that once belonged to Pope’s ancestors, that definitely had to take the cake.

You and JJ have been paired up on this expedition, seeing as you always make the best team, and have been tasked to lock the passengers and crew hull. Piece of cake right?

-

JJ leans against the wall next to the hull door, pressing himself as close as he can so as to not be seen. You follow suit on the opposite side, peaking around the corner to count everyone who entered.

“How many?” JJ whispers to you. You hold up three fingers. He peaks through the doorway and holds up six more. After a minute, you hear the Cameron’s coming. Around the corner you see Rafe, Wheezie, and Rose enter the hull.

You turn back to JJ. “That’s everyone,” you whisper and nod your head towards the door.

“Except Ward. We need Ward.”

“We don’t have time to wait, J.”

He pauses for a moment and then with a sigh, he motions toward the door. The two of you bolt towards it, pressing your full body weight against it in an attempt to slam it shut. You aren’t fast enough, the crew pushing back against the heavy door.

“Close it, close it!” JJ yells.

“I’m trying!” You push with all the strength you have, JJ pressing his body up against yours. “Lock it!”

He slams the lock in place and you both take a deep breath. From inside the hull you hear a crew member yell, “Try the other door!”

You and JJ lock eyes. “There’s another door.” In a split second you’re both sprinting to the other side of the hull, slamming and locking the door before they can escape.

“Oh my god,” you breathe out.

-

After dealing with the hull, you and JJ help Pope hook up the cross to the crane so that he can move it to the lifeboat. Then it's time to head up to the deck. The two of you move about the ship considerably less carefully now that the crew and passengers have all been taken care of. Or so you thought. As you round the corner to the stairs, you come face to face with the angry captain.

“I don’t see him,” JJ muses, looking over the side for John B.

“JJ.”

He stops in his tracks. “Of course,” he quips, “There’s more of you.”

“Get down on your knees,” the captain orders.

“Yeah, that's not gonna happen.” JJ charges at the captain, who swings his machete, narrowly missing JJ’s head. You grab his arm as JJ pins him against the wall. He lands a punch to the captain's temple and you pull a door hitting him square in the face, knocking him to the ground.

As JJ squares up, you look over the side of the boat to yell for your friends. You don’t get a chance before JJ gets knocked to the ground, hitting his head against the boat, leaving him in a daze.

so I did a thing

OBX characters as tweets

[homesickturner]

"Goodbye green leaves! Goodbye sun! Goodbye warmth! Hello chilly breeze and sweater weather!" with sarah

yes yes yes I love you so dearly Sarah🥹 thank u Anna for the request! I’m so sorry it’s short, I’m really tired and I’m trying to clear my inbox as quick as I can ❤️

***

It’s no secret that Charleston’s golden girls loved the autumn season. You and Sarah were often seen out and about wrapped up in layers enjoying the weather, wether you were taking photos with the golden leaves or heading into Starbucks to order your weekly pumpkin spiced lattes.

“I love autumn,” you beamed, looking over at Sarah with her latte in hand.

“I know,” she sighed. “Goodbye green leaves! Goodbye Sun! Goodbye warmth! Hello chilly breeze and sweater weather!” She laughed at the end of her sentence as she ran into a pile of yell red leaves.

People always assume the worst when it comes to breakups... Chase and Maddie were both busy, in different parts of the world, working, it's very much possible that they decided to end the relationship because they couldn't find time to be together. It happens to a lot of famous couples. That's normal.

It happened to me in my last relationship (my ex went to take a majors degree in another country and we ended up breaking up because he simply couldn't do long distance relationships and feelings weren't the same after being away from each other for so long, but we broke up on great terms and still talk from time to time).

Chaselyn loved each othe so much, I'm sure there's no bad blood between them (they still like each other's pics) and they can very well still be friends.

People please just be respectful.

that’s just exactly me point… nobody — no matter how big of a fan or how much of a fan they are — knows these people. all they’re going off are instagram posts, and tweets, and gossip blogs (which i have a whole other issue with) and they think they know these people inside out and they just don’t /:

everything they’re saying is just based on assumptions and whether they like chase, or like maddie, and it can’t be helpful to either of them to constantly be speculated about or have bullshit thrown around about them for a headline or a couple of likes… these are real people, with real feelings and a real situation.

and to your point about relationships, that’s also true. like nobody’s saying that’s the reason, but it’s just stupid to automatically jump to the assumption that there’s some big scandal to be revealed /: let them deal with their shit in peace

[fivelakesinwriting]

I'm 100% sure Drew has road rage. He's the calmest person ever until he sees someone driving like shit

I believe this. He presents himself as so cool and collected, I want to know where he puts his frustration. I'm a bad baby and have road rage (yes, mom - I know that's bad)

Does he yell in the car? Does he box (omg) ? Tell us, Drew.

[rudystree]

Not a fan of mullets but if anyone can rock one is Rudy 😌

[goldenroutledge]

fanfic ask game! ❤

I, R, S, T, X

thanks for the ask babes ❤️

I: Do you have a guilty pleasure in fic (reading or writing)?

i kind of live for those moments when exes reconnect/reunite? because it’s angsty and i love it at the same time

another one is probably admission of feelings but they’re sure it’s unrequited so they cry in embarrassment and heartbreak but only to find out the feelings are mutual

R: Are there any writers (fanfic or otherwise) you consider an influence?

my mind immediately went to @toriswrites because when i found her blog i was in love with her writing and she inspired me to write!

i would also have to say @outerbankies because her description and detail is perfect and idk there’s just such good vibes in her fics, i can’t even describe it!

@annab-nana as well because her fics give me butterflies, her writing is immaculate 🦋

S: Any fandom tropes you can't resist?

best friends to lovers & enemies to lovers lol

T: Any fandom tropes you can't stand?

character death or amnesia or separation by circumstances out of their control because it hurts my heart too much. too much angst for me

X: A character you enjoy making suffer.

it varies, depending on how i feel about the character at the moment lol. i’d say rafe or jj because i write the most angst for those two. but it still hurts a little 😣❤️‍🩹

send me a fanfic ask!
