Sara and Wille pranking Simon

Oooooo okay!!

Sara and Wille have been getting closer lately, Simon thought it was cute at first, his boy friend and sister getting along! It’s a dream come true.

That was until they wouldn’t stop messing with him. In started off in little fights, Him and Sara would be fighting and Wille would side with Sara! Blasphemous. In class Sara and Wille would always talk, leaving Simon to the side.

At first Wille thought that Sara hated him, but actually she honestly didn’t really have an opinion. Once she heard that he used to ride, she was all over him. Asking him questions, what kind of horse did he ride, did the horse have a name, how much did he do it?

Simon was getting annoyed. When Wille would come over, they would be in his room, playing video games, or studying, usually making out but who’s business is that. Certainly not Sara when she burst in one day, interrupting a very productive study date. They had gotten a whole question done. Wille didn’t even seem upset when she burst in, like his sister walking in on them on his bed wasn’t a big deal.

They talked in private too.

“So when should we do it?”

“As soon as possible. What about tonight.”

“Perfect.”

When Simon walked in on them talking it wasn’t an unusual occurrence but this seemed strange, they both jumped when he walked in.

“What are you guys talking about.” He looked at both of them. Sara looked like a deer caught in headlights.

“Nothing, we were talking about going riding tonight.”

“The stables shut down in an hour, will you have time to go?”

“Yeah, I think we will be fine.“ Sara responds.

Wille and Sara both let out a giggles. Stifling their laughs.

Simon walked back to his room, shutting the door and turning on his music, leaving Wille and Sara alone to their own devices.

Sara pulled out a glass of what looked to be water, and Wille pulled a box of attachable sticky fake bugs out of his school bag.

“Ready?“

“You have no idea.“

Wille took a few of the sticky fake bugs and placed them in one hand and took the glass of water in the other.

He walked to Simons room, knocking on the door, bugs in hand.

The door opened, an unamused Simon at his feet.

“I thought you were going to go riding.”

“Hm, I was, but then I realized how neglected my boyfriend is-“ he places a kiss on his temple.

“-and decided he might want some company.”

“I’m not neglected, I just miss you.”

That almost made Wille feel bad about what he was about to do.

While placing another kiss on his forehead he placed the fake sticky bug on Simons desk.

“Here I got you a cup of water, I’m sure with all that singing you’ll need it.”

Simon smiled that his boyfriend thought of him, he grabbed the glass and put it up to his lips.

He put it up to his lips but nothing happened.

The water was staying still because it wasn’t water at all, it was jello.

“Seriously Wille. Gelatin in my water. Did Sara put you up to this. Very funny.” He shook the glass upside down.

“I think I’m hilarious.” Wille pressed a kiss into Simons lips before pulling his towards him.

“I was just checking to see how the prank went, I didn’t want to see you two making out.”

“Then stop walking in my room Sara.”

“Hm.”

Sara walked in the room some more, looking Wilhelm in the eyes and then over at the fake bug on the desk.

“Oh my god Simon there’s spiders on your desk!”

Wille smiled as he jumped back, containing his laughter.

“Oh my god, I’ll get something to catch it!”

Simon ran out of the room as Sara took another bug out of the box and Wille did the same. Holding them up getting ready for Simon to come back.

Simon came busting in with a bowl, only to be found with two laughing idiots in his way. Wille and Sara could hardly hold it together while they held up the fake bugs to his face.

“Oh my god I hate you both.”

“You love us.” Wille replied

“Nope I hate you now, Sara: disowned, Wille: broken up with.”

“Come on you’re being dramatic Simme.”

Wille put the bugs aside and gave his boyfriend a hug, letting his face cower in his chest.

“I still hate you even though you are very comfy.”

“I’m comfy huh.”

“Shut up you’re still broken up with-“

“- and you.” He points at Sara, his face still covered by Willes chest.

“You are definitely still disowned.”

“Now you’re really dramatic.” Sara replies.

“Get out so I can yell at my boyfriend.”

Sara throws her hands in the air out of defeat and walks away.

“You gonna yell at me or are you gonna stay cuddled in my chest.”

“I’ll get around to it.”

[sapphire-writes]

babeee I just read ch 3 of thin ice (my fav hotd fic of all time btw you’re an amazing storyteller) and tell me why I feel like cregan has a lil crush on Sara I’m paranoid

Oooooo Nonnie interesting observation what a twist that would be, I love that!!

truly though, I hate pitting girlies against each other so I would not worry (at least on Sara's end 😏)

I love hearing your thoughts and what you're reading between the lines (even if its not the direction I go in eventually its so fun!!)

thanks for sharing lovie 😘

[fizzyxcustard]

If you were Sara in labyrinth would you have followed her path or say Yes to Jareth?

Oooooo! That is such a good question. I love it. You know, I would have probably said yes to Jareth. He’s the king of a fantasy land and he can give you anything. Why wouldn’t you say yes? 🤣🤣🤣🤣

[lgbtqlegends]

I have been loving your Avalance headcanons! Do you have any about Ava taking care of Sara after they get her back from the aliens? Thanks : )

thank you so much! and oooooo this is a really good one!! hope you enjoy!

-they get sara back and the first thing she does as soon as she can is fall into ava's arms and it feels so good to be held by her again and she's missed her so much and it's been so long

-they get back to the jumpship and ava holds sara the whole way back to the waverider. she combs her hand through sara's hair and sara takes a little nap because she's so tired from all the times she woke up from a nightmare alone and couldn't go back to sleep since she got taken by the aliens

-they're back on the waverider and ava immediately carries sara to the medbay (sara said she could walk but ava insisted on carrying her and sara really couldn't deny that it felt really good). gideon checks her out, makes sure there's nothing seriously wrong and then lets sara go

-ava carries sara back to their quarters and lays her down, grabs her some nice warm pajamas n then kneels down next to her n cups her head with one hand while sara just smiles tiredly n holds her arm in place with her hand

-ava asks her if there's anything she can get her or if she needs anything n sara just closes her eyes n shakes her head, still with a soft, tired smile before saying "just you", so ava gets her into the pajamas before crawling into bed with her and pulling her as close as she can and whispering that she missed her so much before pressing a kiss to sara's hair

-the next morning ava wakes up to find that sara's already awake, sitting up n playing on her phone or something so she asks if she's okay and sara just puts her phone down n lays back down with ava and tells her that she's just not used to being able to go back to sleep anymore. n then she yawns and ava asks her what she thinks will help her get more sleep n sara just asks ava to hold her n talk softly to her

-they take a few days for themselves, away from the waverider, just to be together, alone, with 0 interruptions or responsibilities because it's been so long and they both really needed it

-for a long while after sara's back, ava keeps checking in on her to make sure she's good and she does a bunch of little things for sara. sara really appreciates it because although sara can do all those things on her own, she loves that ava cares that much and that she thinks to do all those little things to make sara's time a little easier

[gifted-burnout-archive]

oooooo these are very cute, uhmmmm 14, 22 and 26!

14. an artist (of any kind) whose work you look forward to seeing

i wish i was a more artistic person, i really struggle to appreciate art (in all it forms) fully because my mind races a million miles a minute at all times. that being said, while i cannot speak in fields of fashion or photography or actual physical art, i always look forward to discovering music by artists like Gracie Abrams, Sara Keys, Lennon Stella, Sabrina Carpenter, Frank Ocean, Post Malone, Dodie, Wallows, Conan Gray, Harry Styles, Hozier. I really like the vibes, and often find I discover their old music more than look forward to certain releases, you know?

22. if you were going to dye your hair any colour of the rainbow, what would you choose?

I’ve done pink (and by consequence orange), and blue-black. So, next colour I would probably choose a purple or something? I’m on my way to blonde just now so it might be a bit of time before more colours, but yeah.

26. the film you watched most recently that you could watch again and again

This is very very hard. There’s think-pieces I love to rewatch over and over to disocver new things, comedies I watch to catch jokes I’ve missed, romances because I know the two people will end up together. I found out really recently my movie rewatching might actually be linked to my anxiety which is fun! 

In no particular order Ready Or Not (2019), Game Night (2018), Spirited Away (2001), The Cornetto Trilogy (2004/2007/2013), Inception (2010), 1917 (2019), We’re The Millers (2013), and The Martian (2015) to name but a few! And Jojo Rabbit (2019).

[bookcub]

1, 6, 12, Kvothe and Denna (duh)

Thank God I have someone else in my life who ships them. Pretty sure it’s just you and me, dude XD

1. If you had to change the pairing’s very first meeting, how would you change it?

Look, I’m a sucker for a childhood romance, but I would have LOVED if Kvothe and Denna met when he was younger, traveling with his family. I think it is a really big and missed opportunity, they would have more history, maybe know a little bit more about each other, add another dimension to why they are so attached to each other. . . I really would have loved that a LOT. Maybe she saw one of the plays, maybe she was one of the children he played with at one point, maybe she is also Edema Ruh and they met traveling together (although there would be less mystery) (still. . . ) 

6. Least favorite canon moment of them?

It has to be the fight. It’s so important and monumental and they needed to have one, but oh, is it ever so painful to read. And Kvothe says such terrible things. It’s a hard scene to read. 

12. If you had to take them and plunk them into another fandom, what fandom would that be? Why?

Oooooo. . . hmmm. . . I kind of want them in Arrow, but in a Oliver x Helena or Oliver x Sara kind of way. . . Vigilanting together and discussing right and wrong, with dark backstory and stuff.  

(that seems like a good quote for them) 

Name a pairing, pick a question~

[nedyma]

Constangreen

oooooo boy, i was not expecting constangreen but i’m so happy to answer these.

 who hogs the duvet

 this would totally be john because john doesn’t think about it and gary’s too gary to say anything about it. so after their first few mornings together, john always feels incredibly guilty when he glimpses over to see gary on his side of the bed in nothing but his boxers, and curled in on himself to try and stay warm.

 john ends up getting two more blankets, because who sleeps with only one anyway? and it works out because they end up buried in the covers and john loves when his and gary’s toes tangle under the blankets.

who texts/rings to check how their day is going

 gary, at the worst imaginable times. john’s performing an exorcism and he gets a text from gary with at least seven heart emojis and a kissy face. and if john doesn’t answer the text soon, gary follows up with a call to make sure he’s alright. john might have had to have a talk with gary about that, but that doesn’t mean john doesn’t love knowing he’s cared for.

who’s the most creative when it comes to gifts

 it’s not that john’s useless at giving gifts but he’s utterly useless at giving gifts. he’s usually handing over a store-bought present, so of course it’s gary who’s usually the one who has the sweet caring ideas.

 but then john surprised them both by buying gary shiny new die for his d&d games.

who gets up first in the morning

 not that gary wants to, but it’s gary. besides, there aren’t many demons for john to fight at seven in the morning.

who suggests new things in bed

 gary, with a bright red face and shaky hands. and john’s grin splits wide across his face as he tackles gary to the bed and puts those ideas into action.

who cries at movies

 john and gary are both guilty of that. when they’ve got the rare hour of downtime, they’ll curl up on the couch and catch up on films. and if one happens to have a heart-wrenching scene, they’re both pressed to each other’s sides, eyes watery.

who gives unprompted massages

 john, and good thing because gary needs and deserves a good massage.

who fusses over the other when they’re sick

 it’s actually john who gets incredibly nervous when gary wakes up one morning with a stuffy nose and a sore throat. john’s suddenly warming up soup, keeping gary in bed, and worrying his lip over gary’s minor cold.

 gary thinks it’s incredibly sweet.

who gets jealous easiest

 perhaps not jealous, but gary gets insecure easily. he just can’t believe someone as cool and handsome as john constantine would want to date him. and gary’s not a fighter, so it did put some strain on their relationship at the beginning when gary thought john was showing interest to someone else, gary would pull back, deciding there was no sense in fighting when surely gary green would lose in every department.

 john still tries his best to convince gary how madly in love with him he is.

who has the most embarrassing taste in music

 we all know john’s taste in music, and while i wouldn’t consider gary’s taste embarrassing, it’s a lot of pop music and today’s hits.

who collects something unusual

 well, considering john has bat spleen in a small bottle, i’d go with john. he has some interesting things at the millhouse after all.

who takes the longest to get ready

 i don’t think either of them take very long, but they’re usually side by side, whether they’re brushing their teeth or brushing their hair or putting their shoes on. they get ready together, and usually get distracted by one another in the mean time.

who is the most tidy and organised

 I would say gary would probably be more tidy, but that’s not hard when compared to john constantine. gary green is a mess, trust me. his

who gets most excited about the holidays

 gary gets the most excited to be able to spend them with john.

who is the big spoon/little spoon

 i think this is pretty interchangeable. sometimes john likes to be held, sometimes gary likes to be held.

who gets most competitive when playing games and/or sports

 jeez, i think it’s hard to imagine gary with any competitive bone in his body, so probably john. john love petty rival bets, whether that’s games or sports.

who starts the most arguments

 john comes off crabby a few times so he ends up hurting gary’s feelings and only realizes when he hears gary shut the bedroom door. he spends the next ten minutes apologizing until gary opens the door and kisses him senseless.

who suggests that they buy a pet

 gary does, because he’s got a kind heart and they actually do adopt a white cat that’s got green eyes and pink paws. john doesn’t like her at first, since she’s got gary’s attention for the whole first week, but then gary’s gone one weekend and priscilla, the cat, curls next to john on the couch and maybe they could get along after all.

what couple traditions they have

 john’s got a record player and there’s this song he played after the first night they got together, and they slow danced, with john’s mouth pressed to gary’s shoulder and his hands on gary’s waist as a fire flickered in the fireplace behind them. john still won’t tell gary the name of the song, but sometimes after a heated night, john will play the song and they’ll dance.

what tv shows they watch together

 hmm i can’t picture this. so i might go with none for right now. they binge movies rather than tv because keeping up with tv in their line of work is exhausting.

what other couple they hang out with

 hang out might not be the term but they run into sara and ava quite often considering they work together.

how they spend time together as a couple

 usually it’s spent saving the world since john’s joined the legends and gary’s a time agent. but then there’s also the soft moments where john’s hand is carding through gary’s curls when they’re laying in bed. or when their hands are intertwined as they walk side by side. or, as previously mentioned, they binge movies and make out on the couch.

who made the first move

 john planted a big kiss on gary and we all saw it. buuuut the proper move was made when they both blurted out that they wanted to see each other again. and they did.

who brings flowers home

 gary brought home a bouquet of blue flowers once, and they were lovely, sitting in the vase for about two weeks, and john tried to return the gesture but something happened, something about a poltergeist, and john came home with crushed flowers, a split lip, a gash on his forehead, and a tear in his shirt.

 gary appreciated the gesture and insisted on putting the flowers in the vase.

who is the best cook

 these two disaster men decided to try and cook together and they end up making one of the most delicious home meals either of them have had. so they improve one another’s cooking easily.

It’s a Hard Love:  part 1

The title is from the NEEDTOBREATHE song called Hard Love and if you haven’t listened to it, please do. It’s a main inspiration for this series (and also for Running Away so there’s that little nugget). This series started as a plotline of Running Away and became its own thing.

*****

The bar was moderately crowded so you made your way to the bar and settled on an empty stool near the corner. A guy sat a few stools down to your left and a group of what looked like college kids to your right but you ignored them. A bartender walked up and leaned against the bar. His smile was wide as he quickly glanced around to see if anyone was going to join you. "What can I get a pretty lady like yourself?" The flattery was a little over the top but you shrugged it off and looked over the specials on the board behind his head. "Let's start with a beer and see how I feel when it's empty." The bartender nodded and grabbed one from the fridge behind him. He popped the top and slid it to you so you raised it in cheers before you took a big gulp. Your friends had stood you up despite the fact that you were here to celebrate your new job. Not that you really blamed them. Sara and Isaac's two kids were sick, Melissa had to work late and then early tomorrow at the hospital, and things with Jacob had been weird since the two of you almost kissed at that one party a few weeks back. When he'd found out that the other three had bailed, he had quickly made an excuse to not come out as well. Not one to let something like being alone hinder your enthusiasm, you headed out until you found a bar you'd never been in before and decided to celebrate by yourself. It was your first real job with benefits and set hours and you could not be happier. Your parents had been proud when you'd told them about the offer. Even your dad, who was usually pretty reserved, had told you that he was happy for you. After you finished the first beer, you ordered a shot and another beer. When the still grinning bartender placed them in front of you, you quickly threw back the shot and grimaced at the taste. "Most girls order something fruity," offered the bartender as he took the shot glass back. You wiped your mouth and shrugged as you picked the beer back up. "I like a cocktail as much as the next girl but not tonight." The bartender shrugged and headed off to the other side of the bar to serve the college kids. You knew it helped them get tips if they were friendly and flirty, especially with certain clientele, but you always felt off center when it happened. "You know, there are studies about people who drink alone." You turned to the guy sitting to your left who had spoken. His hair was slicked back, face with an amount of stubble that probably took a while to perfect, and his clothes were high quality. Not all together someone who fit in at a seedy bar, but you knew better than to judge someone by their appearances. Plus he was ridiculously attractive and currently smiling at you so you took that as a good sign. "I thought that was just about adolescents that drank alone, not adults?" "Well I think the sentiment transcends age." You watched the stranger carefully and couldn't help a grin as you turned back to your beer. "I guess you would know seeing as how you're drinking alone as well." The guy grinned down at his own beer and murmured "Touche" as he took a sip. The bartender came back to check on the people at your end of the bar and seemed to pay you a little more attention than some of the others. Then again, you were the only female on this end of the bar. "I had plans to drink with a friend but he got held up at work. Figured I'd get a head start before he got here." You held your beer up in solidarity with that. "Yeah, I was supposed to be out celebrating with friends that I got a new job but they all had something come up so here I am." The stranger nodded slowly before he gestured to the seat next to you with a grin. Why not, you thought with a thrill and a nod. He moved to the stool next to you and held his hand out. "I'm Billy," he said as you took his hand and shook it politely. You offered your name in response and then released his hand. "So a new job? That's always good. Do you mind if I ask what you do?" "Oh it's nothing big," you clarified as you took a sip from your beer. "It's just a receptionist gig at some swanky office." You kept it vague because no matter how attractive Billy was, you weren't about to tell a complete stranger where you worked. "Administrative assistant," he corrected with a laugh. At your confused look, he explained easily. "The preferred term is administrative assistant. They do a lot more than just answer the phones and deserve the credit." "You sound like an authority on the matter. Are you an administrative assistant?" Billy laughed at your joking tone and tipped his beer back to drain it completely before he looked at you with a playful glint in his eyes. "Oh no, I have a small issue with taking orders from someone. I don't think I'd make a good assistant." "Orders huh," you joked in a thoughtful voice. "I don't think there are many orders in office environments." "I guess I'm just going by the movies I've watched." You broke character for a moment to laugh and Billy joined you. With a shake of your head, you placed your elbow on the bar top and used your hand to support your chin. "I think you might be watching the wrong kinds of movies Billy." Billy bit his lip to keep a smile down and you tore your eyes from the movement to focus on your drink. "I suppose that is a matter of opinion," he said with a husky rasp in his voice that made you fight back a shiver. When you finally looked back at him, he tore his eyes away and held up two fingers at the bartender to request more drinks. The bartender set them down and you noticed a lack of a smile as he pushed your beer to you. Maybe his flirting hadn't just been for tips, you pondered as you raised your bottle to lightly touch Billy's in a small toast. "So you have no problems with drinking alone, you are an authority of administrative assistants, and you may have one friend that prefers work to hanging out with you. Don't you sound like a catch," Billy laughed and leaned back a little to be able to look you over. Hopefully the flush on your cheeks could be attributed to the alcohol and not his intense gaze. Seriously, who let the male model have this much charisma? It was detrimental to the health of females everywhere. "If that's all it takes to win you over, I guess I don't have to mention my amazing business or military career." Heat pooled in the bottom of your stomach as you watched Billy stare you down. You had been able to brush off the banter from before but now, with his voice going low in a way that clearly did something to you, you had to admit that you were interested. "Is that your go-to when you're trying to pick up women in bars?" Your voice came out almost hoarse at first and you would have been embarrassed if you hadn't watched Billy's eyes drop to your mouth. His tongue darted out to wet his lips and you felt your skin begin to tingle. "I usually don't have to try to pick up women in bars." That declaration should have repulsed you, as if he was God's gift to women, but it didn't deter your current thought process. One look at him told you that he probably was God's gift to women. A gift you wouldn't mind unwrapping. "Are you trying to pick up a woman in this bar?" He took a look around the room at the women this bar had to offer before he turned back to you. He leaned forward until his face was very near your ear, his breath brushing against your hair and neck. "Is it working?" He leaned back a bit and you licked your lips as his eyes dropped to them once more. The movement was enough and he leaned forward to capture your lips in a kiss that shook you to the core. A wolf whistle made the two of you pull away and you blushed as the college kids cheered. "I uh, I'll be right back," you promised softly as you grabbed your purse and headed towards the bathrooms. Your heart beat double time in your chest as you pushed open the single stall bathroom door. Never before in your life had you done something like that; kissed a man you just met at a bar. Hell, almost kissing Jacob had taken almost six months of crushing on him and look how that had ended? You placed your purse on the counter next to the sink and stared at yourself in the mirror. "You're in your twenties, you're attractive, you're starting a new chapter in your life. You have the right to go home with a guy from a bar if you want to." After your little pep talk, you washed your hands and grabbed your purse before leaving the bathroom. Billy still sat at the bar and his face lit up when he saw you. With the building "oooooo"s from the college kids, you marched right up to Billy and grabbed his head, pulling him down to kiss you once more. The college kids broke into loud cheers and you ignored them as bit down onto Billy's bottom lip and broke the kiss with a gasp. Billy's eyes roamed your face and you watched as a smirk broke out over his lips. His eyes were darker than they had been before and it sent that a thrill down to your toes as you leaned up to his ear. "Your place or mine?" He pulled his wallet out and laid down some bills to cover both of your tabs and led you out of the bar and to the street. From there he offered his hand and gently pulled you a few blocks down where a very nice car was parked. Too nice for this neighborhood, but you slid into the passenger seat when he held the door open for you. His hand on your thigh, Billy drove through the streets of New York to a sprawling building. He pulled into the parking deck and into a parking space nearest to the elevator. You looked around at the other cars in the garage and felt immediately out of place. As if his car wasn't bad enough. Here you were surrounded by the cars of his neighbors and you felt like you were in some sort of Mercedes Benz commercial. When you reached down to undo the seat belt, Billy leaned over and pulled you into a hot kiss. You melted into the kiss and could feel him smirking against your lips. "Come on," he murmured against your lips and stepped out of the car. You took a moment to breathe but as you reached for the door, he pulled it open for you. "Well damn, looks and chivalry. Aren't you the whole package." Billy grabbed your hips and pinned you to the side of his car, his own hips pressed against yours. Your breath came out faster as he leaned down to nose at your collar bone. "If you don't mind, I think I'll show you the whole package somewhere I won't have to worry about legal ramifications. Until then," And he kissed you once more before he took your hand and led you to the elevator. There were few things to tell you how well off someone was more than having to use a special key to be able to get an elevator to go past a certain floor. Apparently the key was reserved for people with penthouse suites. When he pulled you out of the elevator and into a small foyer, you noticed it took another key to get through his door. You wanted to laugh. Your life had turned into some sort of cliched movie but you didn't care. He turned to you and offered his hand. You took one look at it before you reached out and placed your hand in his. After tonight, you might have to take back your joke about him watching the wrong kind of movies.

Part 2

[queercapwriting]

Oooooo... Can we pleeeaaase find out how Sanvers get together in you NB Alex College AU??? I'm super hooked on that series and I need mooore! *makes random excited squeaky noises*

^^ Above-referenced series (this ask made me smile so much) is linked here – Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 | Part 5

Maggie had suggested that they sit together on the couch, and Alex had never associated couch sitting with nerves.

They’d always associated it with studying or with Movie Night with Kara or with Game Night with Lucy and Kara and James and Winn, or with Siblings’ Night. 

Not with this.

Not with… kissing. 

Not with Maggie Sawyer, this girl who literally rode into her life and who, already, Alex didn’t want to stop being around. Ever.

“You’re so good at this,” Alex breathes into her mouth, and when Maggie sighs a small laugh, Alex pulls back. “I’m sorry, that was a weird thing to say, I ruined it, didn’t I, I’m sorry I – “

“Whoa, hey Danvers, slow down, hey.” Maggie shifts her hands from Alex’s undercut and jawline to their torso, hesitating before she brings her hands down on Alex’s tank top, their binder underneath.

“Can I touch you here? Only if you want me to,” Maggie clarifies, and Alex reaches their hand down on top of Maggie’s, bringing her hand onto their ribcage. 

Alex gulps. Maggie gulps.

“You didn’t do anything wrong, Danvers, okay?” She chuckles again, warmth lighting up her eyes and her entire face. “It was cute. You’re cute. And hot.” Her eyes travel down Alex’s body. “Very hot. And you’re not so bad at this whole making-out-on-the-couch thing, either. It takes two, you know?”

Alex blushes, and Maggie decides she wants to make them blush every day. 

Multiple times a day.

“Okay. But still, it was a corny thing to say.”

Maggie shakes her head and brings one of her hands back to Alex’s face.

“This okay?” she asks. Alex nods their head eagerly, and Maggie leans forward to kiss their nose. “I like corny, Danvers. The world could use a little more of that corny earnestness you have. And anyway, sex is all about communication, right?”

Alex’s eyes fly wide, and it’s Maggie’s turn to blush and splutter.

“I mean… not that we’re having sex. Who’s having sex? Your roommate, probably, not us. Not right now, anyway, I – god, I kissed you twice, and now I’m becoming you? What – “

“Maybe kiss me again. Another test. To find out if we’ll really do the whole lesbian merging thing.”

Maggie licks her lips and glances at Alex’s mouth. “So what, you get all smooth when I’m the one stumbling over my words, Danvers? My hero,” she teases, and Alex’s breath hitches at the way her tongue wets her lips.

“Well? Do you consent to further testing?” Alex quirks their lips to the side, and Maggie barely stops herself from swooning.

“I do,” she whispers, leaning forward again, and Alex’s lips on hers take her breath away.

And she gladly gives her breath to Alex. Her breath, her slightly parted lips; her hands, her hair, her soft whimper when Alex tentatively flicks their tongue across Maggie’s lower lip.

“Was that okay?” Alex asks, their voice low and questioning, and it’s a question Maggie’s used to asking, but not so used to getting asked in return.

“Yes,” she whispers, and Alex’s smile could light up the multiverse.

“Good,” they murmur, lowering their head so they can do it again.

And again, and again, and again.

Maggie’s laying with her back on the ledge of the couch – this okay? Alex had asked, and Maggie had nodded desperately – Alex’s head pillowing her head – aww, you’re so sweet, Danvers, Maggie had teased, but her heart had never felt this warm – Alex’s leg between her thighs – don’t fall, Danvers, she’d cautioned, and Alex had chuckled, I would, wouldn’t I? and Maggie had secured her hands protectively on Alex’s waist to make sure they didn’t as they both giggled and kissed each other’s faces – Alex’s hair tousled by Maggie’s hands – so you like the way the undercut feels, huh? Alex had asked, and Maggie had blushed – when there’s a loud knock on the door.

“Fuck,” Alex pants into Maggie’s mouth, resting their forehead on Maggie’s. 

“Dirty mouth, Danvers,” Maggie chuckles breathlessly, her eyes shut tight from the effort of not moaning her disappointment.

“Who the hell is it?” Alex calls, crawling off of Maggie. And, sure enough, nearly falling in the process.

They cling to each other and giggle.

“It’s me, Alex,” Lucy’s voice sounds. “And Sara. I am so sorry, but I left my laptop in here and I realized I have an assignment due at midnight – “

“You realized? I reminded you, Lane,” they hear Sara’s voice joining the mix.

“Whatever, can we come in? Just for a second? No need to get dressed, I’ll keep my eyes closed – “

“We are dressed!” Alex protests, and Maggie bites her lip and blushes as she checks over her clothes and hair to make sure she’s somewhat presentable.

“What a shame,” Sara grins as she strolls in with Lucy. She glances at both of them up and down with a faux-critical eye.

“Looks like you almost weren’t dressed, though, hm?” she teases, strolling forward to hug Alex and shake Maggie’s hand.

“Shut it, Lance,” Alex blushes, but appreciates the way Sara hugs them with more masculine gusto than she hugs most of her other friends.

“So you must be Maggie. I hear you’ve got a motorcycle. Nice. But uh… You plan on treating them well, right?” Sara raises her eyebrow as she and Maggie shake hands.

“She practices krav maga,” Lucy whispers loudly from across the dorm, and Alex aims a playful kick her way.

“Guys, don’t scare her off,” they singsong, their hands shoved deep into their pockets.

“My only plan with them is to treat them the way they deserve to be treated,” Maggie ignores Alex and Lucy’s antics, her eyes belonging to Sara for the time being.

Whatever Sara sees in them, she must like. She must trust. Because suddenly she goes from a protective stance to a welcoming smile.

“Well good, then, Maggie Sawyer. Luce, you have your laptop? Good, okay. Have uh… have a good night,” Sara winks and flashes a peace sign as she heads back out the door with Lucy.

“Have fun, kids!” Lucy gives them an identical wink as she, too, rushes back out the door.

“Sorry about that,” Alex chuckles when they’re alone again. “My friends can be… a lot.”

But Maggie shakes her head and takes their hands. “No, I told you: I love that they care so much about you. You deserve it.”

Maggie licks her lips again and Alex gulps.

“So. Looks like we have the rest of the night to ourselves,” they manage to choke out, and Maggie reminds herself to breathe.

“Looks like it,” she repeats. “Wanna kiss me again?”

And of course they do.

In your opinion, what are the best and worst story/character archs of the entire show? (Personally, one of my favourites is the spencer pill story in season 5B. It was just so well written, troian's acting was so great and the whole story was just so real. It fit her character so well. The worst one would probably be the whole "mona's body is in the barrel" story. It was just so weirdly written in my opinion, and in the end the barrel had no relevance to anything. I have plenty more from that

Oooooo yes. That's a good one. I mean a bad one. You know what I mean 😂 that barrel story arc was embarrassing. They hyped it up way too much, only for them to not answer what's in it IN the show, but via interview, and even then, the answer sucked! Sometimes I question what goes on in Marlene's brain because seriously, how can SHE even think that that's good story telling? I just don't see one single spark of goodness from the way they handled that storyline and it baffles me that Marlene thinks she's a good show runner. I could go on for days but I'll end that rant there. Other than that, and the obvious Sara Harvey being Black Widow and red coat, the worst storyline is how they handled Ali's return to Rosewood. She was such a bitch in the flashbacks and then she comes back as a victim - when she (probably) chose to fake her death in the first place. Her overnight personality change was horrendous to watch and unfaithful to the character. Some of the best storylines they've done is Spencer infiltrating the A team in 3B, the Ezra and Toby betrayals (not the best endings, but I loved that they weren't afraid to rip our heart outs temporarily), and the introduction of Mary Drake and the plethora of discussions she sparks.

Interview With The Amazing Sara Raasch

I just finished the last book in the Snow Like Ashes series, Frost Like Night. My feels are all over the place! AHHHHHH!!! I loved this series so much!

Snow Like Ashes series follows 16-year-old Meira, a headstrong refugee of Winter, who wants nothing more than to fight to take her kingdom back. She tends to go off half cocked into action. She definitely reacts emotionally in situations.

She trains alongside the future King of Winter, Mather. He is believed to be the heir. He’s also her closest friend in the world. ::Oooooo!! wink wink::

And Sir, he’s in charge. He trains them. He makes the decisions. And he looks out for everyone in their refugee group as best he can.

The series has these beautifully written eight nations (Seasons and Rhythms)  that the characters travel to on their course to save their own kingdom and these emotionally complex characters they encounter along the way that you just want to keep reading about. Crazy twists and secrets and WOH!!

I loved Meira so much because even as she acted emotionally, she was so brave, loyal, and determined. So determined. And watching her grow and deal with the surprise relation of who she really is throughout the three books was awesome!

Frost Like Night has big battles, unexpected turns, incredibly swoony moments, and a war to end all wars.

I am so lucky that Sara agreed to answer some of my burning questions I had after I finished the last page of that incredible book!

Check out my interview with her!

1) What an amazing series! I loved every minute of it and will definitely miss Meira and the Seasons and Rhythms! How are you feeling with this being the last book?

Relieved! Sad! Excited! Bittersweet! It's a crazy mix of emotions, but that's pretty much publishing in general. Just nonstop emotions! All! The! Time!

2) There were some terrible losses on Meira's journey to save the world. Was there anyone that hurt the worst to you?

*SPOILERS*

The scene that always made me tear up SO MUCH (mostly because I listened to Krista Siegfrids' "Can You See Me" while writing it and OMG the FEELS: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v7Z6nQNJPiA) was definitely Sir's death scene. It was the culmination of so many threads (Meira's father-esque plot with him, Mather's similar thread, Hannah, the magic, etc) that it was just constantly ripe with emotion. Ugh, still hurts!!

3) In your acknowledgements, you said you had a character named after your friend, Melinda, that didn't make it into the book. If she had made it into the book, what kingdom would we have met her in? Would she had dodged the Decay?

Ha! She'll love that you asked about this :) Melinda is my sister, and she isn't too much of a reader (gasp! I know!). So I knew the only way I had any hope of getting her to read my books was to hide her in there somewhere -- so I named a side character after her, Queen Melinda Haskar of Cordell, Theron's mother. It's important to note that she's his *deceased* mother, and my sister takes great pride in now telling everyone that she's the dead queen of Cordell.

4) The Blizzard fandom is such a cool fandom to belong to! What is some of your favorite fan mail you've received from fans?

Oh where to even start!! I've gotten the most AMAZING things -- all because the Winterians are the best fandom to belong to, in my opinion ;D I've gotten coasters painted with the map of Primoria, hand-made mugs, fan art GALORE (people are so. freaking. TALENTED!) -- but I think my favorite thing has to be a compilation album of sorts that one of the FROST LIKE NIGHT War Council members gave me -- it's a whole book of quotes from fans saying how much they love the series. She even got a note from my mom! It's so amazing!!

5) You have a new series you are working on! Yay! Can you tell us any juicy details about it? Or is it all really hush hush?

I am in LOOOVVVEEE with my next series!! It's a YA pirate fantasy. I describe it as the Golden Age of Piracy meets the Spanish Inquisition with botanical river magic. I can tell you more about the three POVs -- one is a girl, Lu, who lives on the island of Grace Loray (where said botanical river magic is); another is a stream raider (think "pirate") who harvests and illegally sells magic, named Vex (my young Jack Sparrow inspired character!); the last is from the country that once owned Grace Loray as a colony, Ben, the crown prince of Argrid (a Spain-esque country with a very theocratical government). Despite what it may look like, it is *not* a love triangle! Ben is the product of my deep obsession with CS Pacat's Captive Prince trilogy -- if you haven't read that series yet, omg, GO READ IT NOW!

Thank you so much for having me!!

Such an amazing series, Sara! Thank you so much for answering my questions! I can’t wait to read the new series!! So excited!
