#nora going ''holy shit. is that the nice boy with the pretty dog from down the street?? how is HE here??''

[new-eyes-extra-colors]

Plots please, for Nora & Reed?(Or Mercy, or Delta if you want to include them too?)

[meme]

I'm unsure if Mercy ever returns to Vegas or would even want to, but in one of Nora's endings, she winds up living there for the rest of her life. I can imagine Mercy helping her and Shaun get there safely and introducing her around. Traveling across the majority of the country together would be quite the adventure.

Railroad shenanigans and missions where everything goes sideways are a favorite of mine for Nora and Reed. Hell, forget anything faction specific--I like the idea of them just working together out in the Commonwealth in general. I think the banter would be incredible. And both snipers, too--they'd mesh well as a team.

On that note, while I'm thinking of a joint Reed and Nora plot as a whole AU, I wonder how they meet. Do they wake up at the same time and start traveling together immediately? Does one of them wake up later? How would they meet up in that case? As part of the Railroad or Brotherhood? As Nick's friends? Would they have a relationship pre-War, since they lived in the same neighborhood? The possibilities are endless and I would love to write something for this now.

[groves]

anyway i have. a variety of thoughts re: The Last of Us Part II, and i wanna get them out, so beware spoilers below the cut

i don’t wanna go the absolutist route of saying this game was incredible or this game was total bullshit - there were things i liked and things i very much did not

druck has been saying from the very beginning that this game was supposed to be about hate and cycles of violence and what trauma can do to a person and like. listen they achieved their goal with that - that being said, personally, i’m very over torture porn

let’s start with the good, shall we

i loved the gameplay! obviously very reminiscent of the first game, but i like the new add-ons of the ability tree, the new items you could craft, the variety of much bigger, more intricate, and interesting maps was hella fun

holy shit the standing/crouch/prone mechanic was smooth as shit and so much fun. i don’t think i’ve ever played a game where you could go prone like that, let alone with that much ease and versatility. it made a lot of the battles really fun and more versatile than they would have been with just boxes to hide behind

abby’s hair?? i don’t think i’ve ever played a character with hair animated past their shoulders/upper back?? she had a long braid that moved seamlessly as she moved - i’ve always assumed long hair on a player character was something that was deceptively difficult to animate (like characters taking off clothing, which ND were the first to achieve in Thief’s End), so idk if any other tech/animation people can confirm or deny that abby’s hair is kind of an animation breakthrough?

the similarities and differences between ellie and abby’s gameplay based on their strengths/weaknesses, materials, and training was a good touch

i know a lot of people didn’t like her, but abby grew on me a lot. do i love her as much as ellie? not by a long shot, but playing as abby for so long was very effective in driving the theme of cycles of violence home. As in, these are two girls who otherwise would have no reason to be enemies, neither of whom are inherently evil, but they keep doing things to hurt each other and brew this hatred in each other, neither of them feeling like they can stop

i loved a lot of our new cast of characters

i would die for dina, who could have seen that coming

i really liked jesse! i wasn’t sure how i was going to feel after the pregnancy reveal but he was just. super solid the whole time and i appreciated him

yara and lev. my children. “i’ve never heard a scar curse before” “that was my first time” an angel

increased diversity! (which is. a double-edged sword, see below) canonically lesbian ellie, bisexual and jewish dina, trans lev, many more characters of color, you love to see it

listen this is just me being a lesbian talking but despite all the bad it’s just nice to play a canon lesbian with a girlfriend in a mainstream, non-rpg game, okay

the genuine portrayal of trauma, PTSD, and triggers. it was, uh, very hard hitting

JJ. the entire domestic scene at the farm. we’re ignoring the rest of the game, that’s where it ends, happy farm gays and their beautiful baby boy

....and the bad

the obvious one - joel’s death. i went into this game fairly sure he was going to die, but it was just so SOON and abrupt and really didn’t do the character justice. i’m extremely grateful we got to see more of him and ellie through flashbacks, but the literal entire purpose of his death was to traumatize ellie and that’s shitty. he was fridged.

i realize this is a very violent and traumatic game/franchise, and the more minority characters you have, the more likely they are to be victims of that violence. HOWEVER, you can’t help but notice when most of the minority characters are killed, mutilated, or repeatedly traumatized.

killed: jesse, yara, manny, nora, isaac (along with owen, mel, and joel)

mutilated: yara, ellie

repeatedly traumatized: ellie, lev, dina

i love to see a young trans character played by a trans actor, but it would also be nice if his story wasn’t like. entirely about being shunned and targeted bc he’s trans y’know

all of this begs the question of bad/subpar representation vs no representation at all and quite honestly i don’t have an answer to that

i said before that i appreciate the narrative and gameplay risk they took with having you play as abby as almost a deuteragonist, but i missed ellie, who this game was supposed to be about. 

FIGHTING ELLIE?? i died like 5 times bc i was sitting there screaming “i don’t WANT to hurt her??”

again, i appreciate The Point, that neither of them are inherently evil, but have been caught up in this cycle that has made them enemies of each other. ellie has gone down a dark path and lost her way. it was very effective naughty dog i get it okay pls don’t make me hurt my child again

i’m not entirely sure what the point of the seraphites was besides the aesthetic™ tbh

not that anyone’s complaining about the aesthetic™ tho

the whole santa barbara sequence felt. unnecessary and tacked on. again, i get it, ellie choosing to continue the cycle when she could have let it go, but i feel like that also could have been driven home with a little extra time in seattle

finally, the ending:

liked: that ellie didn’t kill abby. by the time we got to the final fight on the beach i very much didn’t want to kill her. the game proved its point. i just wanted her to get to a firefly base with lev and be safe, and break the cycle.

disliked: the seeming hopelessness of ellie’s story? they gave us a crumb with the fact that she was going to try and reconcile her relationship with joel before he was killed, and honestly, i don’t blame dina for leaving, but even a HINT that ellie was going to go find dina and make it up to her and hopefully settle down and have a loving life with her girlfriend and son and recover would have made it so much better. and i guess it could be open to interpretation, but leaving her guitar and all her artwork of her family doesn’t paint a pretty picture.

overall, i had a fun time playing it for the most part, but it’s left me feeling sad and mournful and hurting. which, again, might be the point. but if it is, i don’t like that point very much.

Jaune: "..."

Every Student: "Default Dance! Default Dance!"

Jaune deflates with a big sigh, but a small smile creeps on his face.

Jaune: "Well...if you cant beat them, SHOW OFF!"

Jaune begins dancing blowing all of the students minds, their hollering echoing all through town.

* * *

Blake: "Hmm."

Yang: "Thinking of Vomit boy?"

Blake: "Mhmm, just hope everything's okay."

Yang: "AAAH, it's fine, our local knights a bit of a mother hen. I'm sure he'll wrangle up the kids and keep them in line and safe."

* * *

Jaune was currently flying a stolen aircraft being chased by flying grimm

Jaune: "HOLD ON TIGHT IM GONNA BARREL ROLL THIS BITCH!"

The aircraft twisted in the sky dodging a swarm of grim.

Student G: "Gonna-"

Student F: "-Hurl!"

Stendent D: "IVE NEVER FELT MORE ALIVE!"

* * *

Ren: "Still worried of Jaune, Nora?"

Ren watched as their hyperactive teammate paced back and forth, her pancakes gone cold.

Nora: "What if Jaune does something drastic like theft, escape from swarms of grim and, AND-"

Ren placed a hand on her shoulder: "Nora, it's okay to worry but have some faith in Jaune, this is a big step for him."

Nora nodded: "Yeah...yeah, faith. YEAH, for JAUNE-JAUNE!"

* * *

Student A: "FUUUUUCKING GOD DAMN!"

Jaune: "HOLD HIM DOWN IM GOING TO POP HIS ARM BACK IN PLACE!"

Behind them was a crashed airship and dissipating Grimm. All the students had ash on them and their cloths a bit torn.

Studen A, with tears in his eyes: "I swear! I SWEAR I'll never floss on the elderly again just make the pain go away!"

Pop

Student A: "AAAAAAaa actually that felt pretty good...do it again."

Stendent B: "Dude...no."

* * *

Oscar: "Jaune with a bunch of kids...I dont know. He wasn't afraid to slam me against a wall, I know I've put that past me but can he really connect with kids?"

* * *

Student C: "I think Violet has a crush on me."

Jaune: "Wig."

Student C: "But I love Peppermint."

Jaune : "Ooh big mood, but Peppermint loves Violet, huh?"

Student C: "Totes."

* * *

Qrow: "Wonder how the kids doing. Feels odd not having him near by, like a big sassing dog suddenly not in the room. Well I'm not with him, so I bet hes having a lucky week."

* * *

Tyrian: "Well well well, we cross paths once more, and OH! You brought little ones with you! Oh imagine the fun I'll have! Ha ha ha ha!"

Jaune: "This wont be like last time creep, SQUAD, what is the RED rule!!"

All students in a wave unleashed and activated their weapons one by one. In a flash Jaune had aura boosted all the students.

Students: "KILL BAD TOUCH MAN!!"

Tyrian: "O-oh...?"

* * *

Weiss: "Ruby please, he'll be fine!"

Ruby, vibrating in place: "I cant help it, hes so far away, I didnt have time to think about it on the train but, hes always been by my side in a way. And now hes all alone with strangers, how can I not panic a bit. He could be in trouble and there we couldnt respond in time. Oh Jaune, please be safe..."

* * *

Tyrian lay battered and broken while one students flossed on him, the rest forming a circle while T posing. Jaune was off to the side with tears in his eyes, recording the whole thing.

Jaune: "I'm so god damn proud of you idiots!"

GOT7 Fan-fic. Rec.

 So, since I’ve read like 80% of fics in the Got7 fandom, I though I’d do a fic rec, to help you (potential reader) and so that I finally can have a list of my favorite fics. These are not all the fics I’ve read, just the first ones that came to my mind. Also most of it consist of JJP, but I will add more pairings as I go! This list is not yet complete, I’m working on completing it, it just takes a lot of time to search for these fics. None of these fics are mine, all credits go to the amazing authors! The only things that are mine, are the little reviews after each fic! Good read! :)

M = Mature / Explicit W = Trigger Warning ♡ = fave

Park Jinyoung is a graduated English Literature major, content with (in Jackson's words) his boring life working at a restaurant and writing poetry. When their worlds collide over a spilled cup of coffee, Jinyoung learns there's a lot more to life than the secrets of his past and the safety of library books.

Review: This one is literally a JJP classic. Long af but sooo worth the read. The characters really just grow on you, even if they are dumb af sometimes :( also GREAT SMUT

* M - Wilder by Sugarbowl

Summary: Newly graduated, Jinyoung is determined to try new things. New parties, new boys, and when Mark asks for a favor, even volunteering as a counselor at summer camp. But new experiences can get complicated, and he quickly finds himself a little out of his depth.

Review: Another classic. I live for the sex scene in at the end. Jaebum is confused and doesn't know how to stand up for himself and Jinyoung is jealous af but also kind of insecure. But they make a great pair together :'). ALSO great smut (!), awesome Markson and cute af Yugbam plus a bunch of great Kpop cross overs (!!).

* M - Charade by Sugarbowl

Summary: Jaebum and Jinyoung walk parallel paths in many ways, but Jaebum isn't interested in their intersection. Jaebum struggles to support his young son on his own, while everything seems to come easy for wealthy, charming Jinyoung. But when they're forced to partner for a project, Jaebum finds himself a bit more willing, and much more in need.

Review: Another great fic by Sugarbowl. It's still ongoing but this fic is so beautiful. Both Jaebum's and Jinyoung's feelings are portrayed extremely well and the way they come together is beautiful. Plus kid!Yugyeom is adorable. ♡♡

* M - Citation by KingJackson

Summary: Jinyoung doesn't love him back.

an AU where jaebum and jinyoung have been best friends for their entire lives, and where jaebum has always been irrevocably in love with him but somehow, jinyoung just doesn't seem to get it.

Review: Another fic that makes me scream. LIKE SERIOUSlY WTF. My heart ached so much during this fic :( But as always everything works out but man, this was an emotional ride for me. ♡

* M - Compas Calling by Sugarbowl

Summary: Prince Jinyoung is destined for a lifetime of luxury, until he's shoved in a trunk and accidentally abducted. Im Jaebum clawed his way out of poverty to captain a pirate ship and... not much else, actually. Jinyoung could be his first real treasure, if Jaebum could just figure out how holding someone for ransom actually works.

Review: BEST FUCKING FIC OF THE CENTURY DO YOU HEAR ME I'VE RE-READ THIS ONE SO MANY TIMES IT'S THE BEST OMG ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

* M - A certain Romance by foxxing

Summary: By day, he's a top-rated babysitter. By weekends he's an x-rated escort. These things are generally kept separate, until the day his weekend regular gets his phone number by recommendation and calls for an emergency babysitter. The problem is that Jaebum doesn't know that Junior the escort is also Jinyoung the babysitter.

* M - Wildcat by foxxing

Summary: No one really talks about it, but it's a well known secret that Jaebum’s real vice is racing cars. Dangerous and incredibly illegal, street racing is the one thing Jaebum is good at (besides being the nation’s first pain in the ass) and has never been caught for. How he does it, nobody knows: Jaebum's been caught for drugs, for stealing, for fighting, but it seems like the one thing the police can never pin him down for is the one thing he loves the most.

He represents everything that Jinyoung can't stand, and Jinyoung hates him.

Review: this is some A+++++ smut right here. ♡

* W - the grandfather paradox by symmetrophobic

Summary: Jaebum locks himself in a cyclic normalcy of work, home, life, and the two people he now loves most in the world- his husband Jinyoung and six-year-old son Yugyeom. So when a mysterious teenager shows up in his life and messes all that up, to say that he's just a little displeased by the change would be an understatement. But Jaebum soon discovers there's more to this quiet, truthful boy than meets the eye, and knows that he has just about four days to find out why.

Review: Amazing fic, but my heart hurts so bad :(((((((((

* M - Prove it by Got7hearts

* Of duchebags and pretty boys by schoetheisrealaf

Apart from that, have a nice day. PS.: I hope you don’t have sex for a year. :)"

OR

You steal my parking spot all the time and I was just heading out to leave a strongly worded note under your windshield wiper but oh no you're hot AU Starring Jinyoung the kindergarten teacher and Jaebum the (arrogant yet dorky) business man

* M - Walls of Glass by hakka is_shadow, katamari

Summary: The city's social structure is firm and unyielding--Alphas at the top, Betas in the middle, and Omegas as pliant, broken servants to the Alphas. When Im Jaebum, the heir of an old Alpha family suddenly finds his social position flipped, he's thrown into a world of intrigue, deceit, and as the very unwilling servant to an even more unwilling Park Jinyoung.

Review: OK SO THIS IS LIKE ONE OF THE BEST WRITTEN FIC IN THIS FANDOM. LIKE THE UNIVERSE IS SO WELL MADE AND THE PROGRESS OF JJP RELATIONSHIP MAKES MY HEART SWELL UP WITH LOVE ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

* Come Soflty (to Me)  by Sugarbowl

Summary: Jinyoung is new in town, and Jaebum is trouble. 50's AU

* M - Spoor by maledict

Summary: It wasn’t odd, to present so late, but that wasn’t the problem.

* an apple a day by moonlikeyou

Summary: Doctor Park Jinyoung, star of Seoul Medical Centre's paediatric department, is used to being treated by nothing less than starry-eyed adoration and respect. So, its no surprise that when Im Jaebum, a surgeon with maddeningly pretty twin moles, kicks him out of "his" operating room, Jinyoung gets a little mad.

Okay, maybe more than a little mad. But it's all Im Jaebum's fault anyway.

Review: DOCTOR!AU. CUTE CUTE CUTE CUTE ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

* M - Taint Me by Got7hearts

Summary: Jinyoung is seventeen when he falls in love with Jaebum, who is eight years older than him.

Shouting match over the last Christmas goose at the grocery store AU

Review: This is super cute. Best while listening to Confession. :'3

* M - Smoke and Mirrors by hakkais_shadow

Summary: This was not the birthday present that Im Jaebum was expecting...

Review: Mafia au and hot af smut... ♡♡

* M - I Don't Fucking Care (At All) by wonwoozi

Summary: “Your boyfriend’s hot when he plays.” Jackson mumbles to him as he slips an arm behind Jinyoung, hand finding purchase on the edge of the wooden bartop, his fingers gripping the ribbed edge.

“He’s not my boyfriend.” Jinyoung replies instinctively and gives Jackson a routine jab to the ribs. “And that’s my line, by the way.” He adds as his eyes trail over to Mark, sat behind the drumkit with his face trained into a concentrated smirk, smashing every beat perfectly, hair positively dripping with sweat.

“Not my boyfriend either.”

* M - keep me warm by subsequence

Summary: The problem is that Jaebum...isn't a cat. At least, not entirely. God, sometimes Jinyoung wishes it were that easy, wishes he could just leave out a bowl of food and water and maybe get his laptop keyboard used as a napping spot when he was supposed to be working and have a simple owner-pet relationship.Instead, Jinyoung has a romantic entanglement bordering on codependency and the worst case of blue balls he’s ever had.And Mark had said that getting a cat hybrid would be good for his blood pressure. What a joke.

Review: Another amazing work from subsequence. Every time I read the part where Jaebum swats at Jinyoung’s dick, I just can't stop laughing. :’DD♡♡♡♡

*M - Human Nature by cutiepiemarkeu

Summary: Jaebum accidentally summons an incubus and his boyfriend Jinyoung walks in on the two of them almost getting their freak on. Arguments ensue and JJProject are stuck with an incubus they can’t get rid of - but how do they deal with his attractiveness and the overwhelming urge to have sex with him?

Review: This is a 3-some featuring Mark. But the smut is so good, honestly. Really worth the read. ♡♡♡♡♡

Mark / Jackson

* The Prince Who Never Laughed by seitsemannen

Summary: Once upon a time, in a kingdom far, far away, lived a beautiful and kind prince named Mark, who after his mother's loss never laughed again. That was until he met the brightly smiling apprentice of a glassblower, Jackson Wang.

Review: Such a great and quality fic! Honestly, this was such a good read I can only recommend it! ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

* Twist by KingJackson

Summary: Mark knows Jinyoung. Jinyoung knows Jackson. Jackson hooks up with Jinyoung who also hooks up with Mark. Mark goes to hook up with Jinyoung and ends up also sleeping with Jackson. Jackson sometimes hooks up with Jaebum, but that isn’t important right now.

And they say romance is dead.

Review: All right so this fic is one hell of a mess, but a mess sent straight from heaven! The main pairing is Markson and Markjin (it's complicated) but there's end game Markson and JJP, plus Jackson is an angel sent from heaven in this one! Don't let the pairing discourage from reading this gem! ♡

* Private Show by Got7hearts

Summary: Mark likes to put on a show and Jackson loves to watch until he's been caught.

Review: A+ smut.

* M - lapis lazuli by gotchick

Summary: in which mark is a businessman and jackson is a fencer.

Review: great fic with rich kinda arrogant but kinda insecure mark plus lots of smut!

* M - Playhouse by seitsemannen

Summary: All sorts of rumours surround the handsome Wang heir and the good-looking servants of his household, but no one seemed to know for sure, as no matter the price, the members were not willing to give the secrets of their Master up.

Mark doesn't care for celebrities or rumours, except the one that says the Wang household pays several times more than the usual servant's salary, so when there's a job opening at the House, he goes for it. In the days and weeks spent at the House, Mark gets to know the members and finds out what of the ludicrous rumours were true and what weren’t. What he did not know to expect, however, is how good friends he would become with the other members of the House, and what’s worse, that he would fall in love with Jackson Wang.

Review: THE BEST. Multiple pairing but mostly Markson. Still ongoing but sooooo worth the read. also, long af. ♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡♡

* never felt clean, your timing was perfect by jflawless

Summary: i. jackson is five years old when he’s convinced he’s discovered the secret to love. it’s not much of a secret, he thinks, watching his parents exchange blatant “i love you”s only to quietly prove it later in subtle actions.

you like someone. you’re nice to them. they like you too. it’s the simplest thing he’ll ever do, he thinks, falling in love. a lot easier than tying his shoes or adding double digits or reading without his mom there to pronounce the really long words.

Jaebum / Jackson

* Just Smile Again by riots

Summary: Jackson's been lowkey nursing this crush for years, but he never meant for Jaebum to ever find out. Mark and Jinyoung have other ideas. Also, they're terrible friends.

* Face by jibootyjimin

Summary: @defsoul has started following @jiaerwang

* Fluffy Tales by wildandsexy

Summary: Jackson Wang’s Definitive List of Things Im Jaebum, Roommate, Cat Hybrid and Grump Extraordinaire Does and Does Not Like:

DOES LIKE: • Hoodies • The one table on the library’s second floor by the big window (direct sunlight all morning) (it’s basically heaven on Earth) • Nap time (usually at 11am) (and 12pm) (and 1pm) (and 2pm) (and 3pm)…

DOES NOT LIKE: • Waking up • Being awake in general • Not being asleep • Jackson Wang

Jackson Wang's new roommate doesn't even hate him. He 'nothings' him. And that's just something that Jackson can't live with.

Review: SO GOOD SO CUTE JAEBOM IS ADORABLE BUT GRUMPY AND JACKSON IS TRYING HIS BEST ♡♡♡♡♡♡

Warnings: brief language, barely dirty kissing

A/N: Oh this one was adorably fun…

“We should have gotten a hotel room,” you groaned, Jensen laughing when he pulled in front of the house you pointed out. “Everyone is staying here. You’re going to hate me before we even get to Christmas.”

“You worry too much,” he said, leaning over in his seat to kiss your cheek. “It’s just your parents and sister.”

“And my aunts and uncles and grandparents and cousins and my cousins wives and husbands and boyfriends and girlfriends and there’s probably a dog in there and-”

“Relax, honey,” he said, cupping your face and pulling you close, bopping his nose against yours. “I love you and I’m going to love your family too.”

“Just…if my little cousins get on your nerves, let me know. A couple of them kind of…love the show,” you said.

“Hey, I’d rather have them love it than hate it,” he said, pecking a fast kiss on your lips. “Come on, the faster we get in there, the faster you can stop fussing.”

“If I ask to ditch, you’re good with that?” you asked, Jensen rolling his eyes.

“If it goes south, we can run away then, alright?” he said, opening the car door. “Time to show me off, Y/N.”

“Oh please, you aren’t that pretty,” you said, Jensen smirking when you climbed out after him.

“There’s my girl,” he said, popping the trunk, grabbing a few bags and a big decorated one with smaller gifts you’d brought. “Good thing you’re pretty enough for the both of us, huh?”

“Quiet pretty boy,” you said, your face flush, rolling your eyes at yourself. “We’ve been dating nearly a year and you still manage to do that.”

“Because you look adorable when you blush,” he said, nudging you forward to walk up your driveway and front path. “I’m sure I’ll get to see a whole lot more of it this week.”

“Let’s get this over with,” you said, groaning as you got up to the front door, finding it unlocked and pushing it open. Jensen followed after and wiped off his boots, setting down the bags. “Mom! I’m here!”

“Oh, hi sweetie,” she said, popping out from down the hall, wearing a big smile before she stopped, glancing back and forth between you and Jensen. 

“Everything all right? I told you I was bringing my boyfriend,” you said.

“Is he that boy on the horror show?” she said. 

“Sure,” you said, forcing your eye roll down. “This is Jensen. Please do not scare him off.”

“Y/N,” she said, pouting at you, taking Jensen’s coat from him, pulling him into a hug. “You know, she’s never brought a boy to Christmas before. She must be serious about you.”

“Run away time yet?” you asked Jensen, his head shaking as he smiled at you.

“Well I am very serious about your daughter, Mrs. Y/L/N. You have a very lovely home by the way,” he said, stepping out of his boots and tucking them up against where the others lay. “Is there anything I can help you with? Mom’s always get stuck with the work during the holidays.”

“I’m sure I’ll find a way to put you to work,” she said, giving him a smile. “For now why don’t you settle in. Y/N you’re in your old room with Nora and Lacy. Jensen you can take the couch in the den if you want some privacy. Otherwise you’ll need to bunk up with a couple of the older boys.”

“Wherever you want me is fine,” he said.

“You know mom…maybe Jensen and I could both have the den and Sara could take my spot. She doesn’t want to be stuck on the couch with the boys anymore. She’s sixteen,” you said. 

“Sweetie,” said your mom. “Your dad’s not thrilled you missed Thanksgiving. I’d just let him have this one, alright? An early Christmas present for him.”

“I was with the Ackles,” you sighed. “I mean we live together and you know…sleep in the same bed…”

“You mean have sex?” said your dad, peering his head down over the balcony above. “Hi sweetie.”

“Hi dad,” you said with a red face, giving him a hug when he came down the stairs with open arms. “This is Jensen.”

“Uh huh,” he said, crossing his arms and using his slight height advantage over Jensen to look down at him, Jensen throwing on a confident smile when you knew he was sweating bullets.

“Nice to meet you sir,” he said, holding out a hand.

“You that actor fella?” he asked. “She said you were an actor.”

“Yes. I’ve been doing it my whole career,” said Jensen. “I’ve been steadily employed and-”

“You work a lot?” asked your dad, squinting his eyes.

“Three minutes and time for a drink. Happy Holidays,” you said, shoving your coat on the hook, trying to drag Jensen out of there before his interrogation could continue. 

“You work a lot?” repeated your dad, Jensen’s smile fading. 

“Well the hours are long but it’s only nine months out of the year and it’s not a normal job so-”

“You make time for her?” asked your dad.

“Geez, you gonna water board him too?” you said, your dad pursing his lips at you.

“Answer the question, son,” said your dad, Jensen glancing at you, a flicker of fear showing.

“Of course sir. We talk everyday, except when I get home in the middle of the night obviously. I know better than to wake her up when she’s sleeping,” said Jensen, trying to get your dad to laugh but only receiving a scowl. “Oh boy.”

“Final question,” said your dad, stepping up in Jensen’s face, Jensen staring up, full nerves on dispaly now. “You good to her?”

“Wouldn’t dream of being bad sir,” said Jensen. Your dad squinted at him and nodded, walking down the hall towards the kitchen. “I think he just took five years off my life…and he’s coming back.”

“Jensen,” said your dad, walking back towards you, pointing a finger at him. Jensen swallowed thickly, your dad finally breaking and smiling at him, putting his hand out in front of him, Jensen carefully bringing his back up to shake it. “I once got a boy to leave doing that actually.”

“Can’t imagine why,” said Jensen, getting pulled into a hug quickly, letting out a nervous chuckle.

“Oh and Jensen has to bunk up. Sorry bud, Mary and George are coming in to town after all,” said your dad. “We got a full house this year.”

“That’s no problem sir,” said Jensen, your dad raising an eyebrow.

“Dad stop scaring him,” you growled. “I like him.”

“Sheesh,” he said holding up his hands. “Your sister is busy making cookies if you want to help. We sent most everyone out of the house so we could properly question Jensen on our own.”

“How kind of you,” you said, rolling your eyes. 

“Y/N, you’re on dish duty tonight,” he said, your jaw dropping. 

“Okay, I am not twelve anymore. You can’t just do that, you know,” you said.

“I’ve been working on getting her to put things in the dishwasher,” said Jensen with a more relaxed chuckle. “I really don’t mind helping out with the chores.”

“Ah, a boy with manners. Must have the patience of a saint to put up with you,” said your dad.

“Seriously?” you dead-panned, your mom rolling her eyes at your father. “You two wonder where I get it from, I swear…let’s ditch the bags so we can go see my wonderfully impressive older sister.”

“Oh my…” said Jensen once you’d escaped upstairs, ducking his head into your old bedroom, a big smile on his face when you dumped off your bag. “Is that a pink leopard print bedspread?”

“Do not judge, Ackles. High school is a confusing time for us all,” you shot back, his lips curled up as he took a look around.

“You had one too!” he said, pointing at a wall near your bed. “Why does every girl put up like a thousand pictures of guys and crap.”

“I’ve seen your childhood bedroom. Would you like me to bring up the teddy bear that-”

“Shut up,” he said, cheeks bright red as he turned away with a grin. You dropped off his bag in the guest room he’d have to share with two of your cousins, cocking your head before you shoved him down on the bed. “What are you up to?”

“The house is nearly empty and we are not going to get a second of alone time for days so…” you said, climbing on top of the bed, his arms already wrapping around you to pull you flush with his chest. “Might as well make out while we can.”

“I fell in love with a genius, didn’t I?” he chuckled, pressing his lips to yours. You felt the rumble of his chest as he laughed, your legs moving to straddle his hips when a whistle broke through the room.

“Little Y/N, making out with a boy, tsk tsk,” you heard your older sister say. 

“Go away Nic Nac,” you said, Jensen laughing underneath you. “You so owe me for all the times you had guys over when you were babysitting me.”

“Well I was going to ask if you and your secret boyfriend wanted to help decorate cookies but you seem to be occupied at the moment,” she teased.

“Nic Nac…” you growled, leaning back to stare at her. “We’ll be down in-”

“Holy shit,” she said, her eyes wide. “Who the fuck is that?”

“The random guy I pulled off the street and brought in here to make out with. It’s my boyfriend, loser. Jensen, this is my somehow highly successful, dumb as a box of rocks, older sister Nicole. We call her Nic Nac,” you said, Jensen giving her a wave. “Nic Nac this is-”

“That’s Dean freaking Winchester,” she said, a hand on her hip, smiling wide at you. “Look at you landing a hottie. Didn’t know you had it in you kid.”

“I thought Supernatural was too scary for you,” you said, crossing your arms, Jensen laughing to himself. 

“It was but hey, hot guys got me over that,” she said with a smirk. “Wait…does that mean you know the other one? The tall dark and handsome dreamboat? If he is single, you have got to set me up.”

“Maybe if you let me go back to making out, I’ll think about it, hm?” you said. The door shut faster than you thought possible, Jensen snickering to himself as you looked down at him.

“Did you just auction off Jared so we could get down and dirty?” he teased.

“I said I’d think about auctioning off Jared so we could get down and dirty. I wouldn’t send him to that basket of crazy. I have a soul after all,” you said, lowering your head down. “Now where were we…”

“Me under you, letting you do as you pleased,” he said, grinning up, throwing his hand behind his head. “I’d be very pleased myself if you continued.”

“Oh I certainly will then,” you said, lowering yourself down to kiss him again, planting your palms on either side of his head, running over his arms. “You are such a pretty boy, you know.”

“Lucky boy too,” he breathed out, moving his hands to rest by his head, your fingers lacing together with yours, another grunt coming from the doorway as it pushed open.

“Five more minutes Nic Nac and I’ll talk to Jared, alright?” you said, planting your mouth back on Jensen’s before she could answer, Jensen murmuring under you. “What’d you say?”

“I think he was trying to say I’m not Nic Nac,” said a different voice, Sara. “Howdy, Y/N.”

“Sara,” you said, crawling off Jensen quickly and getting to your feet. “Look at you, you grew like five inches since last year.”

“Uh huh,” she said. “I so knew I wasn’t being a complete freak when I recognized those dorky sunglasses in that picture he posted a few months back. The one’s from the family reunion last year made up all special for us. I thought how the fuck did he end up with a pair. Makes total sense now.”

“I say we shelve this for another time Y/N before your grandparents walk in,” said Jensen, swinging his legs off the bed and walking over. “So you like the show, Sara?”

She turned all giggly after that, Jensen letting her ask as many questions as she wanted, turning on that confident performance he did when he was nervous as he met the rest of your family. You managed to steal him away when you offered to go on a drink run, Jensen sighing in relief when you were driving his car around town.

“How you holding up, Jay?” you asked, patting the top of his hat while you got caught at a red light. “Overwhelmed?”

“I didn’t realize half your freaking family watches the show,” he said. “I was nervous before but…I don’t know, it makes me more so now I guess.”

“Sorry. I would have warned you if I knew. I thought it was just Sara and Nora to be honest,” you said, giving his hand a squeeze as you turned left, avoiding the store you were supposed to go to that was just down the street, opting for the long route tonight. “You’re trying so hard not to be shy in there. I’ll try and get you some more space when we get back.”

“I’m alright,” he said, glancing out the window, tilting his head at the landscape. “What’s that?”

“You got five bucks on you?” you asked. He nodded and you took a left, driving straight down the road about five minutes, turning right and pulling into a parking lot, no line in sight. Jensen forked over the five dollar bill that you then handed over to the guy working the line.

“Ever been before?” he asked.

“I have,” you said, Jensen staring ahead curiously. “He hasn’t.”

“Stay on the plowed portion of the road, set your lights to dimmer and drive slow. Enjoy,” he said, patting your door, waving you to go ahead. You knew the routine but Jensen was looking all around.

“What is this?” he asked as you switched your headlights down and started to drive slowly, turning around the bend, hearing the gasp from his lips. “Wow.”

“The local park sets up lights and designs during the holidays,” you said, slowly going past a giant lit up snowman. “We get to drive through and see it all pretty for five bucks. You can walk it earlier in the season.”

He hummed and let himself get caught up in it, eyes wide and lit up, wandering all over the place at the snowmen and reindeer, presents, igloos and more, his nerves replaced with a boyish wonder on his face. About ten minutes later and you were driving out, heading back for the store but he was all goofy smiles now.

“Did you like that?” you asked, Jensen lighting up and smiling down at his lap. 

“Yeah, felt like a little kid again,” he said. “I’ve never seen anything like that.”

“You’re in snow country, baby. We got to find someway to use that magically white fluff to our advantage,” you said, pulling into a parking spot, driving out a second after.

“Okay, we have to get the stuff at some point,” said Jensen with a laugh.

“We will,” you said, driving down the main road of the plaza, parking in front of the grocery store. “Come on.”

“I’m pretty sure your mom has enough food to feed an army, Y/N,” he said, watching as you grabbed a shopping basket and headed inside, Jensen on your tail. You took his hand and walked down the aisles, heading to the back of the store. “Two bottles of whip cream…I’m all for trying new things but maybe we should wait until we’re home for that.”

“Dork, it’s not for that. Filthy gutter mind,” you said, rolling your eyes. 

“It could be for that…” he teased, moving on his feet as you started walking away, grabbing a pack of gingerbread men off the end of an aisle. You hummed along, poking your head down a row, grabbing a jar of choclate spread and a box of plastic knives. He was trying to figure out what you were up to when you climbed into the front seat with the bag of goodies, tossing some up on the dash, Jensen cocking his head.

“Mr. Ackles, I present to you your very first cold man’s smore,” you said, handing over a gingerbread cookie broken in half, whip cream and chocolate in between.

“This is kind of genius actually,” he said, taking a bite and giving you a thumbs up. “Yummy.”

“Feeling better?” you asked, Jensen nodding as he took another bite. You stole a bite of his smore, his finger moving fast to dab some chocolate on your cheek. 

“Much,” he said, kissing it away. “Thank you for watching my back.”

“I know that’s a lot of Y/L/N’s to handle at once. Hopefully they’ll be back to their normal weird selves when we get home,” you said, Jensen smirking over at you. “We better finish these first. They won’t last more than two seconds in that house.”

“Good call,” he said, reaching for the can of whip cream. “More for us.”

“Hey dad? You want me to turn off the outside lights? You forgot again looks like,” you said nodding out the window, trying your best not to stir Jensen too much from where he’d fallen asleep half on top of you, the long drive taking it out of him.

“I got it,” he said, standing up, giving you a kiss on the top of the head. “He’s tired, let him sleep.”

“We got to go upstairs anyway. Aunt Mary and Uncle George are supposed to get in middle of the night, they’ll want to crash here,” you said.

“Your Aunt and Uncle are staying at the hotel five minutes away, sweetie,” he said, giving you a smirk. “The room is for you two.”

“I thought…” you trailed off, spotting your and Jensen’s bags tucked up in the corner behind the door. 

“He didn’t run off after the brutal onslaught…he seems like a good guy,” said your dad. “Don’t let me him know that yet though. I got a reputation around here.”

“Dad?” you asked, giving him a smile as he grabbed a couple of blankets for you, Jensen not waking up once. “Cut this one a break. I like him. A lot. He wants you guys to like him too.”

“I know,” he said, flicking off the light as he left. “He must be special if you’re willing to bring him home to us. Night sweetie.”

“Night dad,” you said, slumping down, Jensen’s head turning to burrow into the crook of your neck. “Hear that? You’re special.”

He mumbled in his sleep and tucked himself into you as close as possible, sighing once, his breathing falling into a steady rhythm again.

“Sleep tight Jensen. I think they like you.”
