More of My RE OCs

✂️Individual IDs Beneath Cut✂️

These would be from around 2006-2007. Where Adelaide found her niche in biology, Michael would take an interest in virology.

I’m so happy I finally got around to making finished coloured pieces of them. They’re just simple ID portraits, but I’ve been wanting to draw them for a while now. Leto’s OC post kinda nudged me over the edge, so here they are! I gotta do a whole About Them page sometime soon. They mean so much to me.

“Idk why I made this blog tbh” I lied. I made it to cry about missing Rebecca. I’m a pathetic little fool and I’m jingling in all the minor keys to show how sad and lame I am over missing her. Like yeah we just saw her in Death Island, but it isn’t enough. I need more.

"Son of a bitch." "What is it, boss?" Rollins held up his watch chain. A turnip was hanging from the fob where his diamond-studded timepiece should have been. "That little bastar-" Then a thought came to him. He reached for his wallet. It was gone. So was his tie pin, the Kaelish coin pendant he wore for luck and the gold buckles in his shoes. Rollins wondered if he should check the fillings in his teeth. "He picked your pocket?" No one got one over Pekka Rollins. No one dared. But Brekker had, and Rollins wondered if that was just the beginning.

FIRSTIL ; DISCORD RP INTEREST CHECK ‼️

Hi! This is the blog for my xenofiction story Firstil. It features many different animals in a fictionalized northern Maine wilderness. I have experience with running and developing roleplays over Discord servers (I am currently running two!) and I’ve tossed the idea around of making an RP server for this world several times now. I am/have been in a good few Warriors-based roleplays; the concept of a similar RP method with other animals has been brought into conversation many times.

So! I am doing a quick and easy interest check. Here are some possible features:

multiple character slots, ability to make a character that’s anything from a mouse to a turtle to a moose as long as it follows the rules and lore

unique location channels with individual RPs in threads, to help with organization and re-readability

(optional) narrator-guided RP threads and events (think D&D campaign!)

range in RP styles accepted, as long as responses include actions/thoughts and words

TTRPG-inspired stats, encounters, and classes

weekly character questions, month-long writing/drawing/thread prompts

Any questions about or suggestions for the RP? Send an ask!

[ask-redwoods]

Hello hello! So I often put up ask boxes on various social media regarding my ocs and sometimes I will doodle responses. However they only last for a day and I'd like to always have some sort of box open! Hence this account. Here's a visual guide to my main Ocs;

And then here's some quick introductions with basic details about each of them;

Ichabod: Moth hybrid who spends most of his time partying and getting his version of intoxicated. He's a little awkward socially, goofy, and tends to not bring up his past. He's close friends with Ura.

Ura: a fish-based siren, she doesn't take anything seriously and is considered rude or mean-spirited by most. Honestly I would describe her as a malicious bimbo. She's friends with Ichabod.

Salardi: Another goofy guy, however he can be a little air-headed at times and forgets important things they have to do, or even sometimes the fact that his gel-like exterior has a potent poison able to paralyze a fully grown moose for a few hours. Unlikely friends with Elgaria.

Elgaria: A researcher/scientist interested in bringing immortality to those who are mortal. Highly intelligent and curious about almost everything, with a soft spot for humans. Frequently conducts experiments on living and non-living things, but makes a point to ask for consent nowadays.

Valentine: They are a friendly, chill bird hybrid who loves to cloud watch and stargaze. Can "predict the future" for you if you let him, he's right 100% of the time with 30% of his predictions.

The Traveler: A re(tired) angel who is known as the guide for the forest, generally very neutral in opinion but seems to care for those they encounter. Sometimes tough to find.

Desdemona: Standoffish exterior with an incredibly caring interior. She loves cats and gardening, and holds a grudge against Ichabod and Ura. Always seems to have her guard up for some reason.

The Reaper: A mysterious figure in the forest, symbolizes death and is said to only be noticeable by the poppy petals that follow them, however it is likely too late if you see them.

Spider Queen: A troubled creature with a heavy hatred of everything around her, especially spiders of any kind. Bringing up Elgaria will send her into a frenzy where she can rant for hours.

Nymphaea: Highly respected and immortal being who offers comfort to those who seek it. Soft-spoken and motherly.

Thank you for reading! I will draw as many responses as I can, I really enjoy talking about my critters!

[ Image: A drawing of Peyton Riley and Moose, after Peyton has been pulled from the ocean after her death in the comics. Peyton is leaned against Moose, one hand held against Moose's chest and her other dangling at her side. She's soaked, her hair stringy and sticking to her skin, and her neck is bruised green and pink from where she had been dragged down. Moose has a hand on her arm and her waist to keep her steady, giving her a concerned look and speaking in a small, square, empty speech bubble. Peyton is looking down at the ground, speaking in small, round, overlapping speech bubbles. The color scheme is dark and muted, with a dark teal background. ]

Re-read all of Peyton's appearances (not that many so it doesn't take long) and got upset all over again that they just. Let her die. Batman rolling down into spikes and acid and bombs for the Joker and Zatanna being able to do ridiculous things with magic but god forbid they jump in the water to save even one person.

In any case, here's Moose and Peyton, in my vision where Peyton DOESN'T die (and gets a new puppet in Lola and gets to be a Ventriloquist still).

Bitter Work Re-Watch

This is a fantastic episode not just because we learn more about earth-bending, but because we learn more about all the elements through Iroh's lessons with Zuko. Toph teaching Aang earth-bending & Iroh attempting to teach Zuko lightning-bending allowed the show to continue to lean into the theme of Aang & Zuko's journeys paralleling one another. (The show said Zukaang rights yet again!)

Toph already revealed herself to be a little bratty & selfish last episode when she was unwilling to help with chores & in this episode, she showed that brash asshole side that I associate most strongly with her character. These aren't insults btw, I was delighted by the new splash of personality that Toph brought to the show on my first viewing, & I feel that way again re-watching. Toph is a very entertaining character. Her bluntness, pushiness, & delight in violence & chaos make her fun. But, if it ended there, she'd be an ultimately funny cartoon character but not a compelling or complex character among the other nuanced characters of ATLA. Luckily, it does not end there, or I don't think it does. Why does Toph behave the way she does in this episode? What's making her boss Aang around & insult him & push him to his limits? The obvious answer is to force him to face things head-on with his feet on the ground so he can become a strong earth-bender. However, I do think there's more to it.

The previous couple of episodes illustrate that Toph is always treated as weak & helpless & she hates it. In 'The Blind Bandit,' Toph's earth-bending teacher, Yu, insists on keeping her at the basic level & is shocked when she shows talent. In 'The Chase,' Toph says this to Iroh: "People see me and think I'm weak. They want to take care of me, but I can take care of myself, by myself." In 'Bitter Work,' Toph says this to Aang when he messes up: "Yeah, you are sorry! If you're not tough enough to stop the rock, then you can at least give it the pleasure of smashing you instead of jumping out of the way like a jelly-boned wimp! Now, do you have what it takes to face that rock like an earth-bender?" (I'm also convinced that later when she calls him a "pushover" that's the censored version. We all know she called him something else that starts with "pus" offscreen lol.)

What I'm trying to say is - Toph treats Aang with her own form of respect. Toph is used to being coddled & treated as weak, so teaching Aang without any of that is her way of showing him respect - I'm not saying it's nice, or that anyone would enjoy that teaching method in real life, but I don't think it comes purely from a mean-spirited place. And she did, in the end, compliment him & cheer him on. There is something to be said for people who only cheer you on & compliment you when it's truly deserved tbh, I've always thought so.

I don't have much to say about Aang or Katara in this episode because there's not much to deep-dive into or overanalyze. Aang's reasons for struggling with earth-bending are pretty obvious & self-explanatory & obviously, Katara is going to worry about her friend being mistreated. I also don't have much to say about Sokka other than that the saber-toothed-moose lion was cute but I'm tired of the "Sokka is always the butt of the joke" theme this season. Sokka got a lot of development & badass moments last season & so far he hasn't gotten to do much other than B-plot goofiness this season, which is a bit disappointing.

Iroh & Zuko's scenes in this episode were some of my favorites from them so far. Iroh saying "good" about Zuko's tea while clearly dramatically choking & Zuko's cute little smile when he said "I hope I made it the way you like it" -- that was a great scene. It was funny but also genuinely touching after their time apart. Also, I loved Iroh's discussion of the four elements.

I think that this quote right here is pretty much integral to the entire show:

Fire is the element of power. [Draws the firebending insignia in the dirt.] The people of the Fire Nation have desire and will, and the energy to drive and achieve what they want. Earth is the element of substance. [Draws the earthbending insignia.] The people of the Earth Kingdom are diverse and strong. They are persistent and enduring. Air is the element of freedom. [Draws the airbending insignia.] The Air Nomads detached themselves from worldly concerns and found peace and freedom. Also, they apparently had pretty good senses of humor! [Smiles broadly but returns to a more serious demeanor when Zuko doesn't react at all.] Water is the element of change. [Draws the waterbending insignia.] The people of the Water Tribe are capable of adapting to many things. They have a deep sense of community and love that holds them together through anything.

I really enjoy the discussion of all the different elements & what they bring to the table.

Zuko wants to learn lightning bending in case he has to face Azula again. I can no longer find the post that I'm thinking of, but I read a meta once forever ago about how important it was thematically that Iroh actually taught Zuko to redirect lightning rather than create it in the context of his narrative journey away from the Fire Nation & his toxic family. I wish I could just find the post because it went into more detail, but I thought that was an interesting way of looking at it.

Anyway, the last thing I'll say is that Zuko running off to find lightning, in the end, is pretty depressing. The memes about how Zuko runs into a storm & yells at God to strike him down are darkly funny to a point but also in the context of the actual episode....oof. Also, ouch for Iroh. He just had a flashback about his only son who died & then the person he sees as a son in the present asked him to shoot lightning at him. That's....ow.

"You've always thrown everything you could at me! Well, I can take it, and now I can give it back! [Yelling as loud as he can at the storm.] Come on, strike me! You've never held back before!"

I don't know, that's pretty fucking sad. Zuko literally feels like the universe is out to get him, & why shouldn't he? His entire life so far has been about being abandoned & unwanted. I just....ouch.

On a lighter note.

Funny fact: I remember the first time that I watched this episode, I was super confused about what Zuko's actual goal was & I thought that he was literally looking for Azula & it was her that he was yelling at, not the universe. I was so confused about how he thought she could hear him. I have no idea why I took it so literally upon first viewing (I didn't watch this show as a kid btw, this was as an adult) but I did & I was just sitting there like "she's literally probably super far away maybe even asleep & definitely not outside in the storm, babe..." I have no idea what was wrong with me but it's still so funny to me that I thought that. I was so stuck on it afterward too & I tried to talk to my family about it & they were like "girl....I think he was yelling at God not Azula..." & I was like "what? no." It took them forever to make me realize I was being an idiot xD

Oh yes, Iconic Behavior points for this episode: Toph gets 1000 for teaching Aang earth-bending. Aang gets 500 for finally learning, even if it took him forever. Sorry but Katara & Sokka didn't get to do much this episode, so none for them. Zuko gets 1000 for yelling at God to kill him. I'm too lazy to add up points for the season right now but Toph & Zuko made some major strides toward catching up with Azula (don't worry guys, this is me, no one will even come remotely close to competing with her highness for the winner.)

[raymondebidochonlifechoices]

To summarise:

Welcome to Riverdale, the town where you can’t stop progress. The secret, of course, is not to make any, to begin with.

The episode starts with Betty taking off her sunglasses as a reminder of her superpower. Don’t worry, Riverdale, we haven’t forgotten.

Remember how Archie couldn’t help Tabitha because he had his ass handed to him by Percival? That was last week. This week he can in fact go against Percival. Emboldened by their 6x10 failure, Barchie and Jabitha talk about staging a “coup de town”.

Alice overhears them and tells Percival, who implements a curfew at sundown on the pretext of foggy weather.

Instead of moving their meeting re: the coup before sundown, our heroes decide to a) postpone it and b) ignore the curfew anyway. No comment.

Time Alert: it was not yet September when Hiram’s bomb exploded but as per Betty’s calendar it’s now January 15th. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, everybody!

Side note: I too use a huge-ass wall calendar in my office to mark down my period. 

Not.

Now that he’s a deputy, I didn’t expect to see Kevin in RHS and yet there he is, at the teachers’ lounge, sans uniform, ready to drink some coffee. Either those RHS coffee machines make a mean cup of joe or Kevin’s still part-time teaching sex-ed at RHS.

Toni and Kevin have a face-off on the subject of Baby Anthony and what his parents’ lifestyle choices should be. It’s Riverdale, so said choices are: gang membership or compulsive cruising. Kevin is still not related to either the baby or the baby’s parents, so this debate is Moose. Sorry, moot.

Penelope is back! After she was banished from Thornhill, she travelled the world searching for sanctuary and eventually found herself in the Himalayas, at the original convent of the Sisters of Quiet Mercy. Unlike me, Madelaine Petsch is a professional actress who can sip her tea without spit-taking. Kudos.

Penelope is Penelope, therefore, instead of the Dalai Lama, in the Himalayas she found Jesus. She understands that, after all the gaslighting, her daughter’s skeptical, but she goes on with her plan. 1 riverdollar says she’s gaslighting Cheryl again.

Much like Martin Luther King’s assassination, Hiram’s bomb is a fixed point in time, which means that Jughead cannot get his hearing back through Tabitha changing the timeline. Not that it matters: he seems to be doing just fine after that ASL teacher inspired him to learn how to draw back in 6x7. Woke Stories.

Betty opens her front door to go to Archie’s house and sees someone lurking. He doesn’t emit a red aura but the head of Riverdale’s F.B.I. office and catcher of multiple serial killers is spooked. Therefore, she decides to use the back door. To go to Archie’s house. Which is … across from her own. Like … what’s the difference, Yale girl?

Barchie don’t have anything else to say after greeting each other, so they hop into bed for some sex. (Note: after rebuilding his house, Archie is still staying at his childhood room under the roof)

Barchie’s afterglow talk includes: questioning whether they’re dating or not and the fact that Betty’s late. Barchie’s baby talk must be the world’s most awkward segue to serial killer-induced trauma.

Archie mentions Fred, which I take to be Varchie foreshadowing: after all, partners who are obsessed with their daddykins together, get back together.

Meanwhile, back at Pop’s, Jabitha have defied Percival’s curfew by keeping the Diner open for no reason at all.

Tabitha is upset because Jughead, who now hears thoughts instead of sounds, read her mind. That’s an invasion of privacy! (Also, the only way the writers could think of introducing a new plot point: what is Tabitha hiding from Jughead??)

Fresh Stories™: The narrative of serial killers appreciating Betty’s Darkness™ returns.

Nothing spells romance like a good dismemberment story. Twenty-two episodes after the first mention of TBK back in 5x4, we finally learn what happened to Betty while she was held hostage by him. Apparently, he gave her an electric carving knife and told her to dismember a dead body, which is a bit disappointing: I expected him to give her the chainsaw. Baby steps, I guess.

Armed with a deadly weapon, F.B.I. trainee and all-around badass Betty Cooper, instead of going after TBK, dismembered the body. Ok.

Archie wonders why he’s in Riverdale. He must be getting even denser, as he says it’s because he wants to raise a family there. I, however, remember it’s because General Taylor sent him back to manage the RROTC program at RHS.

He assures Betty that he’s not going anywhere. We know this is true, because he told Veronica exactly the same thing in 5x18: like bad writing, Archie is never leaving Riverdale.

In the Babylonium there’s another couple that doesn’t care about Percival’s curfew: Veggie play strip poker in front of daddykins’ portrait and then have sex in one of the champagne suites. They proceed to have the only real adult conversation in the show ever since the time-jump and call it quits for fear of perpetuating their parents’ toxic dynamics. If Riverdale is good at one thing, that is spelling things out.

Back at Pop’s the 6-figure CEO from Chicago doesn’t have enough gas for the diner’s generator. While Jughead wonders around the parking lot with an empty tank, Tabitha listens to the phone call that saved Barchie from Hiram’s bomb on a ham radio, because … why not?

Everybody’s got candles but no one, NO ONE, like Cheryl Blossom. Penelope gives Cheryl the letters Heather, her junior high school belle, sent her. She admits she hated Cheryl because of internalized homophobia. This actually tracks: in Riverdale, all the fathers are douches and dead and all the mothers are douches and gay. Except from FP, who is a douche, alive and probably gay too.

At the Fogarty-Topaz residence, Fangs and Toni eat some tostitos. This also tracks: Doritos are for legends only. Man, I miss Hiram.

Fangs wants Baby Anthony to be raised the same way that he and Toni were. Which, I surmise, means, with a sick mother for whose medicine he’d have to pay by selling fizzle rocks (like Fangs) and a homophobic uncle who would lock him out of the trailer (like Toni). Oooookay.

You won’t effing believe it but Kevin and Moose are also violating Percival’s curfew by being at school after sundown. Kevin still works as a teacher at RHS after all. He says that the deputy stuff is a part-time job but the fact that he was unaware that Moose is the new PE teacher, makes me think it’s the other way around.

Fangs’ ex asks Fangs’ ex if he got back together with his ex. (That would be Fangs). They didn’t, so they decide to put the ‘ex’ in ‘sex’.

Meanwhile, Fangs is mad that Kevin hasn’t come by the house as promised. He wants to go out and find him but instead stays at home to make out with Toni.

Back at the Diner, Jabitha also make out share a hug.

While everyone -but Jabitha- had been fornicating, Percival made a coup of his own and became mayor of Riverdale. Thanks for giving him the idea in the first place, Archibald. If this isn’t the biggest incentive about contraception, I don’t know what is.

Tabitha says she has time-travelled 1.384 times. Off-screen, of course - the show’s budget is limited. No wonder Jabitha don’t have any sex. Girl must be exhausted!

She says they manage to beat Percival twice but Jughead always dies. Jughead, who has died and come back quite a few times, remains unbothered by the news. For good measure, he hugs Tabitha again.

Toffee was also on a ham radio contacting her accountant. Her candle making side hustle is doing really well and she’s searching for new investment opportunities.

Hi, I just wanted to let you know, since it seems you need a bit of positivity today. I keep about 10 tabs eternally open on my mobile, of important facts or cool things I want to remember. Your AO3 library is one of those constantly open tabs, always accessible. I've got no idea why, but She's a Terror, We're the Victims is one of my go-to comfort reads. Drawing Keys With Water is so unique and fun to go re-read every few months. Five out of Five is one of my favorite Brodinsons pieces, I love the witchy culture you included that the boys inherited from Frigga, and how even their friends find it a little odd- it's so natural and realistic. MOOSE. MOOOOOOOOOSE. I love it so much I've read it in English and in Russian. I can't wait for more of the Stygian rewrite!

Haha, if you can't tell, I'm a fan of your Loki-centric work, but that's just because I spend too long fawning over Loki to worry as much about the other quality characters of the MCU. But you are easily my favorite author in the MCU fandom. And just because I'm only familiar with that side of your work, doesn't mean that the other sides of it aren't brilliant as well, especially your original work!

You have a really unique and genuine heart that shines through each of your works. You've got an eye for realism, even in vast, campy universes like the MCU, but in a comforting, natural way, not in the grim-dark way that realism is so often portrayed. Every word you write, even the whump and terror fics, still has a pervasive feeling of hope for the characters and the promise that things won't be perfect, but they will be okay. It's just so lovely to read your stuff.

Now go save all of the nice things people have been telling you in a pretty little file, so that when nonnies are being mean you can shove a file full of 'au contraire' facts in their faces.

The Mitchells vs the Machines (2021)

In a way, animated films have never been more stunning. I know a lot of work goes into them but they're so technically advanced they make it look easy. Maybe… too easy? We've mastered hair, realistic textures, backgrounds, etc. which gives many of them a uniform look. Then comes The Mitchells vs the Machines. So original, full of energy, and visually dynamic there's nothing else like it. This is a hilarious, modern film whose emotions run deep and themes couldn’t have been tackled even a few years ago.

Aspiring filmmaker Katie Mitchell (voiced by Abbi Jacobson) frequently clashes with her nature-obsessed father, Rick (Danny McBride). He can barely handle a cellphone. She loves memes and the sort of wild humor you find on YouTube. As Katie prepares to leave for college, her mother, Linda (Maya Rudolph), and dinosaur-loving younger brother, Aaron (Mike Rianda) worry the family might never be the same. The solution? A family road trip - just as a new line of home robots malfunctions and takes over the world.

With its robot uprising premise, you'd expect the message to be “can’t we just put down our screens and appreciate real life?”. This film is smarter than that. It knows the internet isn't going anywhere. Ultimately, the robot stuff is secondary to the emotions at the film's heart. Katie and Rick frequently clash but as adults, they're aware of their differences. They know what to say to placate the other - setting up devastating revelations later on. Watching The Mitchells vs the Machines, I saw a part of myself in both Katie and Rick. I understand the need to leave the nest and the sadness that comes when your child stops seeing you as a hero and rejects the things you hold so dear. When Rick sees Katie tossing away a wooden moose sculpture he gave her as a child, it’s sad. You don’t know how sad until much later. This is the kind of movie that introduces an idea and then comes back around when you least expect it, underlines the emotion with a fat yellow highlighter, and then punctuates that feeling so hard it’ll bring tears to your eyes.

The human element makes the non-stop laughs even funnier than they could've been on their own. The story by director Mike Rianda and his co-writer Jeff Rowe is filled with memorable jokes, many of which incorporate internet memes or references. The "look" and structure of YouTube videos (such as the cold open that draws you in), colors, music, songs, editing, fonts, and more combine together wonderfully. Even if you don’t know what that weird thing “means”, you’re not too old to get the joke because you instead understand why Rick is so perplexed by it. Those two sides make it universally accessible. If you haven’t seen these memes played out before, it might even be funnier. We’ve had animated road trip pictures, movies about the way different generations deal with technology, and stories of machines turning on their masters but never like this. When was the last time we heard “voicework” by a dog internet celebrity?

In a key scene, Live Your Life by T.I. & Rihanna starts to play. In that instant, it’s impossible not to feel the purest form of euphoria. Everything you saw previously was building towards this single moment of exhilaration. This is a great, feel-good movie that anyone can relate to. Its great message about nurturing creativity and communication between families is the cherry on top. This is the kind of laugh-a-minute movie that will get even better on re-watches because there's no way you can catch all the little gags spread throughout the first time. (April 22, 2022)

Summary: When Reader’s ex-boyfriend comes back to town, he finds a way to make amends— with a little help from her niece.

Category: FLUFF

Warnings: None other than a few swears :)

Word Count: 3k (I barely made the limit, folks, that was hard lol)

MASTERLIST

NOTE: This is my entry for @homoose ‘s 2k Celebration!! And if this fic seems familiar, that may be because it’s a re-telling of the car-wash scene from Ramona and Beezus 🤭😂 It’s one of my favorite movie scenes of all time, it never fails to make me squeal, and I had SO MUCH FUN writing this!

Also! I tried very hard to find the scene for you to watch incase you haven’t seen the movie, but the ones I did manage to find on YouTube cut out THE BEST PARTS, so I’m sorry 😭 But in case you want to know the ~vibes~ I tried to capture and don’t feel like watching the movie, I made THIS post last night with some dialogue/background from the scene if you’d like to read it! Obviously it’s not required since what I’ve written is quite different, but it is encouraged 😊

I hope you like it!! And if somehow you haven’t followed Moose yet, you should! She’s the sweetest ❤❤❤

Y/N found an abundance of upsides to taking neighborhood walks with her niece. For one thing, it gave her a distraction, something to focus on as she made sure eight-year-old Piper wouldn't wander too far from the sidewalk. She found solace in quizzing her on the multiplication table as they made their way around the block, an activity in which Piper enthusiastically flaunted her love of numbers.

It was also nice to stay outside and take in the warm sun and soft rustling of the trees, though every once in a while all of it wasn't enough to keep the memory of Spencer at bay.

After all, it was kind of hard when he was back in town, and after all these years he was reaching out to her like he hadn't broken her heart in the first place.

"You seem sad, Auntie," Piper said, grabbing Y/N's hand as the turned the corner.

Y/N swung their arms together gently, smiling down at her with a tilt of her head. "Why d'you think that, hon?"

Piper gave a little shrug, her ponytail blowing softly behind her. "You don't smile as much. And you always smile when you're with me... And you asked me the same times equation 3 times in a row just now. You're distracted."

Y/N couldn't help the breathy laugh that escaped her. You sound just like Spencer... Instead, she told her, "Aw, I'm sorry, Kiddo. My mind is just in a... confusing place right now. But I'm very happy that you got to come stay with me this weekend, you always brighten my day." She punctuated her sentence with a little boop on Piper's nose, to which she giggled and asked for another math equation.

The two of them continued around the block a few rounds, though on their fourth and final one, Y/N noticed very familiar car parked just outside her house.

Heart jumping into her throat, she stopped in her tracks, and Piper kept going only to be pulled back slightly. The girl turned to her aunt and furrowed her brow. "Auntie, why did we stop?"

"Um... I just wasn't expecting any company today besides you..."

Y/N certainly wasn't ready to discuss everything that was going on with Spencer to anyone, let alone her eight-year-old niece who wouldn't probably understand or care anyway. So she explained it the best way she could, quickly coming up with a plan to avoid him as long as possible.

"See the car parked over there?" Y/N asked, and Piper nodded. "Well, that's an... old friend of mine... And we haven't talked in a long time because we don't really get along anymore. So when we get up to the house, he might try to talk to us, and I'm going to tell him that we're busy."

"He's not mean, is he?"

Sensing Piper's reservations, Y/N reassured her while letting her own contempt for her ex fuel the conversation. "No, but... He broke my heart. And he—"

"Y/N... Hi..."

She nearly jumped, mostly from surprise, but also at the fact that hearing her name coming from his lips and his voice and just him brought back a flood of feelings she'd rather have forgotten. Still, she turned to him and cleared her throat. "Spencer... Hi."

Piper suddenly let go of Y/N's hand, a small scoff escaping her. "Oh. Spencer..."

The two adults turned to look at her with surprise, though it was Spencer who spoke up. "You... know me?"

"Mhm," Piper returned with a nod, crossing her arms. "I heard Mom and Auntie talk about you yesterday, and she says you have a stupid, beautiful face."

"Piper!" Y/N screeched, heat rising to her face. "I... You can't tell people that, I— That's not... I..."

"Oh... I'm sorry, Auntie," the little girl said quietly.

Y/N was fully prepared to dig a hole and stay buried in it forever, and her embarrassment grew even stronger when Spencer spoke up again. "It's okay," he reassured gently, a small laugh sounding from his throat that regrettably gave Y/N butterflies. "You're auntie's definitely right, I do have a stupid face."

Before Y/N could stop the conversation altogether, Piper cut in quickly, being sure to add, "And beautiful."

Spencer's eyes flicked up to Y/N, drawing her in with amusement and charm, a fact which she hated to her core. Because it was working, and that was annoying as hell. "Yep," he said, never taking his eyes off of her. "And beautiful."

And then the corner of his mouth turned up slightly, flashing her the most amused, stupidly perfect smirk.

Piper started talking again, and for the second time that day, Y/N wished she hadn't even said anything at all, keeping this whole situation to herself.

"But we can't talk to you, because you broke Auntie's heart, and we're busy. C'mon, Auntie. Let's go." Piper grabbed Y/N's hand and led her up the rest of sidewalk until they got to the driveway. And even though it might have been childish to completely ignore Spencer as they walked past, not giving him a second glance, quite frankly she was quick to abort the situation as soon as possible.

Unfortunately for her, Spencer was persistent.

They were almost to the steps up to the door when he called out. "Piper! Can I ask you something?"

The little girl turned around, losing grip of Y/N's hand and greeting his gaze without batting an eye. "Sure."

Damn kids and their willingness to be nice to strangers, Y/N grumbled in her head.

"I know... your auntie is an important person to you, right?" Spencer inquired, walking up the driveway with his hands in his front pockets. Y/N swallowed, most certainly not noticing how the sun perfectly highlighted him in a glow that made him look more beautiful than stupid.

Piper nodded.

"Well... She's important to me, too. And I really hurt her feelings, but I want to make it up to her. Would you be kind enough to let me try?"

Damn him, Y/N grumbled yet again. Damn him, damn him, damn him to hell... Why was he so charming?

He'd always known that kids were a soft spot for her, and when they'd dated, they talked a lot about having some of their own  one day. Every time they took a walk in the park and they passed a kid, they always gravitated to Spencer, giving him the biggest smiles, and in turn he would give them a high five or perform a little magic trick to make them smile even wider. And Y/N melted into a damn puddle every time.

He knew exactly what he was doing, using Piper as a means to win her back, but even still, she knew that because of his gentle nature, most of it was... well, nature. Deep down, as much as she hated to admit it, she knew that he was a kind person. They may have ended things on bad terms, sure, and Y/N could pretend he was cruel all she wanted— The truth was that no matter how their relationship ended, he was a good man at heart.

And that's why it hurt so much.

Y/N thought for sure Piper would fall into his web, but she was pleasantly surprised when the girl responded with, "I don't know... I don't know if I trust you yet."

You and me both, Kiddo, Y/N thought to herself.

Spencer laughed again. "That's fair. Look, you can say no, but... How about I give you something in return?"

"Spencer, that's no—"

Piper crossed her arms and tilted her head to the side, interrupting Y/N before she could finish protesting. "How much we talking?"

"Piper!"

"Well, I was going to offer to show you a magic trick, but I suppose I could work you a deal... I only have a hundred bucks on me, would that be enough?"

Sure enough, Spencer pulled a one-hundred dollar bill from his pocket, and the young girl's eyes went wide. Y/N's did, too, but more likely than not it wasn't a means of excitement.

"You have yourself a deal!" Piper squealed with a jump. She ran over to take the money, meanwhile Spencer looked up at Y/N with a smile.

She didn't return it.

"Is there somewhere we can talk?" he asked softly. Kindly.

"Well, I'm babysitting Piper today, so you'll have to come back another time," she returned a little coldly, hoping that she and Piper had just scored a free Benjamin to pig out on ice cream while Spencer was left waiting forever for a conversation that was never going to happen.

Funny how eight-year-olds always had a way of making things more difficult for you.

"Auntie, Spencer and I made a deal. He gave me money, and now he has to make it up to you. Remember?"

Y/N groaned. "Yeah, yeah, I remember..."

"Well, how about I... take you guys out for lunch? My treat? If it's alright, we can go to McDonald's..."

"The one with the play place?" Piper gasped, immediately turning to Y/N. "Oh, Auntie, please can we go? Please, please, please?"

She looked up at Spencer, shaking her head in exasperation as he smiled at her, those sparkling honey eyes reeling her in whether she wanted them to or not. Then she turned to Piper and sighed.

"How fast do you think you can eat?"

***

Y/N was surprised Spencer didn't try to talk to her more on the drive over. Though, Piper did most of the talking, telling Spencer about how much she loved numbers and math, and he even quizzed her on some multiplication equations on the way.

If she wasn't so annoyed with him, Y/N would have melted completely.

It was the getting into the restaurant that worried her the most, though. She knew that once Piper ran off to play while they waited for their food, he would spend whatever short amount of time he had trying to win her back. And she was afraid of two things, mostly that she would end up crying in the restaurant, making a scene and wishing she'd never agreed to go, no matter how heart-broken Piper might have been. But there was also a small part of her, nestled deep into her heart, that was afraid she'd fall for him all over again.

He certainly made falling easy.

When the three of them stepped into the restaurant, it was easy to see how excited Piper was to be there. She gently tugged on Y/N's sleeve before looking up at her. "Nuggets, fries, and Sprite?"

"Apples, too, and you've got yourself a deal," Y/N said.

Piper nodded, not really caring but eager to go and play. So she sighed and nodded, leaving her with a, "Be careful!" as she saw the girl quick-walk over to the play area. There was a decent crowd that day, but thankfully no one in the restaurant seemed to have any grievances or knacks for trouble.

Spencer on the other hand... Y/N scoffed to herself, thinking how he was the most troublesome person in the area.

He proved her point by nudging her with his elbow. "She's a fun one."

"Yeah, she's somethin' alright," Y/N grumbled. "I can't believe you bribed her just to talk to me... If I didn't know better, I'd have thought you were being romantic. But I do know better, and you're just stubborn."

Spencer laughed, but she refused to look at him. "Aw, come on, give me some credit. You know I can be a little of both."

This time Y/N did look at him, squinting in a glare, like she was contemplating. "Eh... five to ninety-five. Leaning in favor of stubborn, of course."

"Obviously." The amusement in his voice made her hate his stupid, beautiful face even more than usual.

Thankfully he kept the conversation short after that, at least until they ordered. Since it was Spencer's treat, she milked his wallet for as much as she could afford to on fast-food. She ordered a large chocolate milkshake and enough food for her and Piper to share for dinner later— and probably lunch the next day, too. The amused chuckle Spencer let out as she was ordering did have her believing maybe she was being a bit childish. But the longer she thought about it, the more she stood by her actions.

He did break her heart after all. The least he could do was compensate through chicken nuggets and French fries.

The only thing she didn't count on, though, was how long it was going to take to make all her food, not to mention getting things done for other people. As she and Spencer made their way to the table, she realized she'd have to talk with him longer.

Spencer took advantage of this, naturally.

"So... How've you been?"

Y/N scoffed. "You show up out of the blue five years after you break up with me, and then have the nerve to ask me how I've been, in a McDonald's? Yeah, I've been great."

He sighed, his eyes flitting down to the table. "I know, I'm... I'm sorry. And I know I should have—"

"Spence, please don't... Look, I know... I know why we broke up, and I came to terms with the fact that your job was just to dangerous for us to be together, but... I mean, you weren't even willing to work it out, you just... ran away. That hurt."

"Y/N... I'm so, so sorry that it happened that way. I think about it almost every day and how much I wish I could have changed it..."

"But you can't change it. And now you... you show up here after all this time to—to what? Win me back? Use your kindness and your charm to reel me back in, like that'll somehow make everything better?"

He looked up at her through his eyelashes, the sight almost breaking her. "Maybe..."

"It's not that I don't appreciate the thought, Spence, because I do... I've dreamt about the day you'd come back and apologize, begging me to take you back... But I can't get hurt again. And you have to understand that."

"I do... Just..." His hands reached out across the table, gently touching hers. The feeling sparked something in her, something nostalgic and warm...

Something that felt a lot like home.

He was going to continue his speech, but a knock on the glass separating them from the playroom on the other side jolted them apart. It was Piper, a stern look on her face. "Don't try anything, Mister... You're still on thin ice."

She turned away then, running back to the slide when Spencer sighed. "I thought we had a deal."

Y/N laughed, nodding at Piper through the glass. "Even a hundred bucks and free food isn't enough to win someone's trust." Spencer looked over at her and waited, visibly swallowing. But Y/N flashed the smallest of smiles before finishing, speaking quietly, yet with all the truth and firmness in the world. "You have to work harder than that."

"Duly noted," Spencer replied, his gaze never straying from hers. "Looks like me and my stupid, beautiful face have some work to do."

Y/N rolled her eyes, leaning back in the chair as Spencer grinned like a fool... A stupid, beautiful fool. "Oh, alright... You know what... If you weren't paying for my mountains of food and giving me a ride home, that thin ice you're on would have just shattered under the weight of that comment."

"Oh, come on, it was funny."

"No, it really wasn't."

"Yeah, it was."

He stared at her, smiling until her forced frown slowly and reluctantly transformed into a smile of her own.

***

"Thank you for lunch, Spencer! And for the hundred dollars!" Piper skipped past him and up the driveway, stopping to turn and wave with her Happy Meal toy in hand. Y/N was carrying a bag of leftover food and half a milkshake, her stomach already regretting every choice she'd ever made.

"You're welcome, Piper," Spencer said, smiling at the girl. "And thank you for letting me get a chance to set things right with your auntie. You really helped me out today, I appreciate it."

"Sure thing. Just don't break her heart again, or I'll break your stupid, beautiful face. It'll turn into a stupid, ugly face then."

Y/N mentally face-palmed herself, turning to Piper and telling her to go inside and wash up. The girl gave Spencer one final wave and a smile as she did so, leaving the adults alone once again.

"Thank you..." he said quietly, shifting on his feet. "For giving me a chance. I really want to make things right with us... Make up for the way I hurt you, and... try harder. You deserve that much."

Years of heartache and trying to get over him begged Y/N not to believe it, but deep down she knew he was being truthful. He wasn't the type of guy to come around like this—especially with all the work travel he did—just to manipulate her into heartache again, with empty promises and hurtful intent.

She knew he was really willing to try to make things right, and that was a big start.

"Thank you... for saying that... And for making Piper's day. I know you didn't really mean to bribe her, but the fact that you did it anyway is absurd, so... I guess I have to give credit where credit's due."

Spencer laughed, and this time Y/N didn't hate the feeling of the butterflies in her stomach fluttering at the sound. "Well, I'm glad I could at least amuse you today. Does... this mean my romantic to stubborn ratio shifted a little bit?"

Y/N rolled her eyes affectionately, taking a sip of her milkshake. "Hmm... twenty to eighty."

"Still leaning in favor of stubborn, I suppose..."

The smile they shared in that moment felt more like the ones they used to share back then, officially kickstarting the slow, meticulous mending of their love.

"Obviously."
