“I etched the face of a stop watch, on the back of a raindrop.”
“I heard the news that you’re planning, to shoot me out of a cannon.”
~ (Piledriver Waltz — Arctic Monkeys)
^ Both are soooo good. Most people prefer the Submarine one but I loveee SIAS so much. (No arguments I don’t wanna hear it it’s my opinion, you’re entitled to yours.)

Mushy May Day 19
Confessions
Pairing; Rain/Dewdrop
Notes; I can't believe I haven't written Raindrop yet, this is blasphemes- but better late than never, i guess (they're on my list one more time after this thank gwod) thanks as always to @forlorn-crows for putting together the prompts list!
It was late. Not late enough to warrant a firm look from the Omega or Aether, but late enough that everyone was tucked away in their rooms, whether alone or with someone. Dew was enveloped by Rain, their arms curling and tucking into him to create a cocoon. Their natural cold skin was a relief to him, as his heat was a relief to them. The way they slotted together, how they balanced each other out; they were made for one another.
It was raining out, it had been for days, and it made them both terribly achy. The two clung to each other since the rain began and only let go when necessary. They got some looks, but none that Dew couldn’t fight with a simple hand gesture.
There would’ve been multiple times in his life Topside that he would’ve called the vulnerability he had with Rain weak. He felt for that poor ghoul. Never secure in himself, too afraid to reach out. He’s glad he’s in a better place.
He knew Rain was watching the window, how it was being pelted. If they were to say anything, he knew they’d say something poetic about it. Something that would make Dew snicker, in turn make Rain slap him for laughing at them. He’d make it up to them, he always did.
“Rain,” Dew murmured into their chest. One arm hung loose around their waist, his claws drawing idly on their back, while the other was tucked between the two of them. His favorite position.
Rain hummed in response, the vibrations echoing to his head.
“I…” the idle drawing paused, “I think I love you.”
It came out quick, unwarranted. He’d never meant to tell them how he felt, ever. Kept hidden away in a secure box inside his heart. But, that was for his former self, wasn’t it? He wasn’t scared to be vulnerable in front of them, not anymore. He had no reason to; they’ve kissed, fucked, cuddled, cried, yelled, and made up. They were as vulnerable as vulnerable could get.
There was a beat with no response, and for a split second Dew thought it was over. It was nonsensical, he knew Rain more than they knew themselves sometimes. But the anxiety that always egged him on reared its head and for that singular split second, Dew thought he ruined it.
But he didn’t. Of course he didn’t. They loved each other, that was a given with how they hung off of one another constantly. After that split second, Rain’s hold on him grew ever so tighter, their head moving to kiss the top of his head, the suggestion of a smile based on how their lips curled.
“I think I love you, too.” Rain whispered back, fully confident in their statement. Dew believed them wholeheartedly.

my favorite thing about stories, be it books or manga, tv shows or movies, or even epic poems and recited songs, is that they never really end -- the part we tell might end: there will always be a last page, or a last episode, a list minute, or a last line, but not really -- because even if it ends here, the story itself keeps on going -- in your heart, in your mind, in the hearts and minds of everyone who's read it or watched it, listened to it or sang it.
and the best part of all that is, even if it does "end", you can go right back to the beginning and start again.
because yes, stories end. the ending will always be there.
but then, so will the beginning.
