i. i avoided watching the springy episode for a WHILE because like. the amount everyone was shitting on it was horrible. it like genuinely ruined any passion i had in ii for a while because it was nonstop. you'd think they SHOT Cabby with the reactions. and then i watch it and it's like. eye-rolly at worst. what am i missing
#speaking as someone with brain damage and major memory loss#idk? maybe i'm biased because i came in with the knowledge that they fix it up the next ep?? but i feel lost????#there IS a difference between ''well-intentioned but missed the mark and looks bad'' vs ''genuine egregious acts of ableism''#you made it sound like the second. it was the first#anyways it was a cool ep otherwise#it felt very ''mascot horror'' which was kind of funny and i had to take a deep breath and go ''yea ok. i guess'' about it#made some jokes to callie abt springy#but like it was fine#i liked the fake past players#fun play on mephone's insecurities#i literally only didn't like bot lying + cabby rolling over the file#but it just sorta reads as cabby overcorrecting so people won't hate her#re: her overcorrecting BEFORE bc she was told she scares people#which sucks a lot yea and im sure it wouldve been more delicately handled in the hands of a disabled person but like#it really couldve been a lot worse#you all made it SOUND a lot worse#i avoided the episode because i was SCARED of it being worse#i went in expecting it to be awful#i dont rly think bot was wrong for not wanting a personal vent convo written down tbh but thats the only bit they were right for imho#other than that yea it felt weird and im glad they fixed it up next ep. ezpz.#wish they did not lead my dash to be convinced they hate the disabled for several months. that was a fun time for me (disabled)#anyways#im not saying it was handled amazingly but it really couldve been way way way worse. can we simmer down now#meow.txt

【warnings: swearing】
gn! reader
✎ a/n: i got a bit carried away with shirabu's AAAAHHH. it makes me sad because im a huge shirabu simp but im content deprived so pls expect me to write more about shirabu for an unhealthy amount of times!<3
part 2 - coming soon (ft. tendou and iwaizumi)
Tumblr media
akaashi
"y/n." he said, almost as if he was whispering but he didn't want to bother you as you seem interested in the conversation that you were having with your male classmate.
"darling." he tried once again, tugging on the hem of his your jacket. fortunately, you turned to him this time.
"i thought we were going to the newly opened coffee shop." he reminded you.
"oh yeah! okay, wait a sec." you smiled at him and returned your attention back to your classmate.
'ouch' he thought.
the seconds you promised turned into another ten minutes and so he was just standing there behind you awkwardly. he wasn't even paying attention to the conversation, he was just busy watching as your eye lit up in excitement. the way you would make weird gestures with your hands to furthermore elaborate your story. he noticed as well how attentive you look as the boy speaks, you leaning in to hear him better. heck, you didn't even bother to cover your mouth as you laugh— not that he hated it but you were never like that to him.
he blinks, starting to feel uneasy and having the urge to pull you out of the scene but he knows very well that you're not his property and that he has no right to tell you who and who not to talk to. as long as you're safe then he's fine with it.
he tries reassuring himself that your classmate was nothing more than just a friend but his insecurities were starting to slowly get into his head. he looks down to his feet, brows furrowed as an attempt to distract himself from his thoughts.
"keiji?" you spoke softly, placing your hand on his shoulder. he looked up, staring right behind you but your classmate was no longer there.
'how long was i spacing out?'
"are you okay?" you asked. taking out your handkerchief from your pocket to wipe the beads of sweat that were on his forehead.
"do you feel sick? we could always go to the shop next time."
"i'm fine." he curtly replied. he panicked as soon as he realized how rude his response was but he immediately relaxed when he saw you smiling gently at him.
"if you say so." you reached for his hand, and intertwined your fingers together as he lets you lead the way.
the short walk from your school to the cafe was quiet— quieter than usual. you told him to find a seat and offered to order for the both of you.
he wanted to protest and tell you that he could have paid for it but he chose not to. he really did want to talk but the unsettling feeling hasn't disappeared yet which made him want to not say anything at all.
you quickly found akaashi and sat across him. his hands were clasped together, resting on the table and so you placed your hands on top of his. giving it a light squeeze.
"you've been awfully quiet. do you want to talk about it?" he contemplated on whether he should tell you about his weird feelings or not but he decided that it would be better if he opened up.
"earlier," he paused, not really knowing how he should start it. if you weren't close to him then you probably wouldn't have heard that he spoke. you decided to let your hands on the table instead of his hands.
"when you were with your classmate, i was glad to see how happy you looked as you talked to him but it felt weird, i don't know why but the way you acted around him was completely different compared to when you're with me... " his voice shrunk.
"i apologize for thinking like this, y/n. i know it's completely immature of me. let's just— forget about it." he slightly frowned, grabbing his own drink and took a sip from it.
"were you perhaps... jealous, my love?" you chuckled and he playfully rolled his eyes at you.
"it's nothing, darling." he denies.
"it's clearly something, keiji. and besides, what you felt— or i assume, what you're currently feeling, is valid. i should be the one apologizing, okay? i'm glad you opened up to me." you reach for your drink next to his but akaashi was quick enough to get a hold of your wrists with his one hand effortlessly while the other grabbed your drink , the straw near your mouth. you looked at him in confusion.
"just drink it. i don't want to let go." he lets out a slight scoff, staring away from your teasing looks. you obliged before he changes his mind and take away your drink.
he still hasn't let go and you chuckled at how stubborn he was. he knew he could have let you use your other to hand to grab your drink but oh well.
"but seriously, keiji. you probably weren't listening but we were talking about something else." he doesn't know how your statement was supposed to make him feel better but he nodded, urging you to continue.
"i'm not gonna tell you to stop being jealous because i think that's easier said than done but i just want to assure you. we were talking about how his date went because he has a crush on my best friend and they finally went out. he doesn't like me and i don't like him in that way either." you explained calmly.
"and i'm sorry for making you think that i'm not comfortable around you. i think you took it the other way around though. just because you see me more hyper when i'm with others, doesn't mean i don't feel at ease when i'm with you. you make me feel safe and normal." you sheepishly confessed.
"oh." he mumbled.
"'oh'? that's all you're gonna say?" you joked, your gaze diverting on the table where he was still busy playing with your hands.
"sorry for jumping into conclusions."
"it's alright. i love you, remember that."
"i love you more, y/n."
Tumblr media
shirabu
"goshiki. have you seen y/n?" shirabu asked as soon as he approached goshiki's table.
"huh? why are you asking me that? aren't we from different classes and year?" he tilted his head, confused with shirabu's visible frown.
"yea— i know that, shut up. you know what— never mind." he groaned and left.
break time is almost over and you still haven't shown up. shirabu may never admit but he truly is worried about you.
he stormed to the classroom of your previous class, silently opening the door, and peeked inside. only to see you sitting on your chair with your male classmate standing in front of your desk, a hand resting on the table to support his upper body as he leans down to meet your face.
he scoffs loudly, your head immediately turning to his direction, and leaned away from the boy.
"this is a school. not a motel." shirabu snarled.
"why are you here?" you raised a brow at him while your male classmate stood up straight, fixing his uniform along.
"i— i wanted to check something here but i was not expecting two irresponsible students deciding to flirt in a classroom. have you ever heard of good manners?" he crossed his arms on his chest. watching as you harshly shove your belongings into your bag before making your way to where he was.
you stood in front of him. having to look up a bit to match his piercing gaze, "you're smart but you're bad at making assumptions." you placed your hand on his chest and pushed him to the side to make way for yourself.
"where do you think you're going?" he shouted, trailing behind you as you try your best to get past the crowd.
"i don't know what the hell is your problem with me, shirabu. would you please mind your own business? what are you? my significant other? asshole." you rolled your eyes and continued your journey to wherever your feet decide to lead you as long as he would not be near you.
you looked over your shoulders. seeing that he already stopped following you. you were supposed to feel glad about it but you felt otherwise.
-
it has been exactly four days. four days without your usual bickerings with shirabu. the whole volleyball team was surprised. it's not like you stopped visiting them to watch their practice, but your interactions with the setter have drastically decreased. no one dared to ask about it and they all act like nothing is happening but the tension still somehow got in the way as you converse with the others. the pair of eyes carefully watching your every move and it took you all the energy to not look back.
'seriously? who does he think he is? it's so annoying. how dare he jump to conclusions. and besides, even if he was right, why does it matter to him so much.' you tried to convince yourself but it wasn't enough to overpower how you actually felt about the whole ignoring situation. you did try to approach him the other day but backed out.
semi noticed that you were spacing out the whole time as he was talking about something. not even the blow of the whistle was enough for you to snap back to reality and so he just patted your back before running back to the court to continue the practice.
you sighed to yourself and felt your phone buzz, receiving a text from haru.
haru: hey y/n! i'm in the library right now. i'll be waiting.
you wanted to bid your goodbye to them but they were too engrossed with practice so you decided to just leave without uttering a single word.
"shirabu! where are you going?" tendou watched as his teammate's figure disappeared from his sight.
"ah, young love." he clicked his tongue in amusement.
"hi haru!" you greeted and he offered a smile before he put his index finger to his mouth, a friendly reminder that you two are in the library. you whispered an apology before sitting beside him.
"so, how'd you do in the exam?" he starts.
"i don't think i'm very satisfied with it but i got a 90% so i guess it's not that bad." you talked as you took out your own textbooks and placed the test results on the table for him to see.
he gasps jokingly, "i beg to disagree that it's not a good grade. i literally got an 88%" he playfully punched your shoulders and proceeded to tell you how proud he was that you managed to ace the exam with his help.
"i hope you don't mind if we settle here instead? i didn't really want to bother my roommate and i think most classrooms are occupied right now." he looks at you apologetically.
"don't sweat about it." you reassured, placing your hand over his that was on the table but you immediately retracted your hand when you heard someone cough.
"what do you want?" you tried to sound tough but you were intimidated by his dark gaze even though he didn't mean to scare YOU off.
"let's talk." he looks straight into your eyes.
"no."
"oh? i wasn't asking. i was demanding." he then grabbed all your belongings, carefully but hurriedly putting them inside your bag and zipping it close, and slung it on his shoulder.
"shira—"
"kenjirō." he cut you off and impatiently grabbed your wrist, not forgetting to give haru one last glare before dragging you along to wherever he planned on taking you.
his pace was fast and you tried your best to keep up with him, being careful in order to not trip.
he abruptly stopped on his tracks which took you by surprise and almost hit your face on his back. he gently pushed you inside the volleyball team's clubroom and you finally gave in and decided to let him.
none of you spoke as you got inside. you leaned on the wall just beside the door. staring intently at your bag that he placed on the floor. having no intentions of making eye contact with him.
however, you didn't expect it when he suddenly stepped closer and nuzzled his face into your neck. "k-kenjirō?" you stammer, reluctantly hugging him and rubbing circles on his back for comfort.
"is there something wrong?" you whispered and he finally pulled away from the hug.
"sorry."
"kenji—"
"shut up," wow okay.
"i'm sorry for... being mean— not that it's something new but i didn't realize how bad it was to accuse you of something that you may or may not do... but that's not the point. i know you're bad at flirti—"
"kenjirō, are you apologizing or insulting me?" you let out a laugh. oh how he missed hearing that.
"right. anyway, i'm sorry i made you upset to the point that you had to avoid me," he was about to continue but you interrupted him.
"avoid you— what?! i thought YOU were avoiding me so i didn't want to bother you!" you exclaimed and the two of you stared at each other in confusion.
"so you weren't mad at me?" he narrowed his eyes at you, a hint of doubt laced within his voice.
"no? i mean, i was pretty upset that you thought i had the time to flirt with someone but it wasn't a big deal and my anger only lasted for an hour." you tried to elaborate.
"but why didn't you approach me the day after? heck, you didn't even spare a glance at me during practice!"
"because i thought you were mad at me!" you exasperated, massaging your temples at the same time.
"god, y/n. so you're telling me i avoided you for nothing?" you hesitantly nodded at him, mind still filled with questions.
"why were you so affected by it anyway," you mumbled.
"excuse me?" he raised a brow, sounding as offended as ever.
"imagine seeing the person you like to be with another attractive guy and be PHYSICALLY close with him. how would you feel then?" you were taken aback by his sudden confession but you decided to play along with his i'm-still-in-denial-game.
"well, i don't know about that because the person i like is constantly surrounded by handsome guys on the volleyball team but i was never jealous."
"so you like someone from the team," he humorlessly chuckled. "this is pointless." he stated.
you groaned at how slow he was, "you're so stupid. it's you who i like, kenjirō! oh my god i can't believe you're this dumb." he stared at you in disbelief, using his index finger to point at himself, "me?"
"no. the fucking wall, kenjirō. i like the wall!" you shut your eyes closed, trying not to get your annoyance into your head.
"then who were you wi—"
"a friend, shirabu kenjirō. haru is a friend who offered to tutor me for the whole week since exams are coming." you reassure.
"but why him? do i look like someone who won't tutor you?"
"yes..." your voice trailed off and he stood there, dumbfounded with how straightforward you were.
"but if you just admit that you were jealous then maybe i'd approach you instead." you joked.
"i wasn't jealous but you're changing your tutor whether you like it or not. now, come on and let's tell him so i could finally go back to practice." he picked up your bag and tossed it to you.
"you're not gonna ask me out first?" you teased before placing your hand at the doorknob.
"well then, go out with me."
"i said ask, not demand." you rolled your eyes.
"as if you'd have a choice anyway."

Just Friends - Part 7
Tumblr media
plot: fubu set up with Kuroo , model fem reader warnings: sexual tension, slow burn word count: 7.2k 
A.N:
- Finally!! I'm so glad to finally release this. October was so hectic and I'm a very slow writer. - I'm so sorry for the mistakes on the previous chapters. No one beta reads for me. So I went back and edited Chapters 3-6. - So sorry for the word vomit on this chapter. I was out of control. - Thank you for all the nice comments!! I swear. They keep me fired up and inspired.  - As always, lmk if you want to be tagged in any of my works,
Part 6 | Part 8 |  m.list
“No! It’s not what you think!”
Kuroo almost laughs at how cliche you sounded, a typical response of someone who’s been caught red-handed. You’re about to chase Kenma, but he grabs your wrist to stop you.
“Maybe you should wear your shirt before you go after ‘im.” He tries to hide the mirth in his expression and tone. Your face is so red, you look like you’re about to burst. He also doesn’t want to add up more to the awkwardness you might feel later, so he’s gonna let this one slide. He’ll just pretend that the massage thing was as harmless as it should be. 
You put your shirt in a jumble and walk briskly to Kenma. He follows at his normal pace, settling behind you when he catches up to you and Kenma.
“Sorry about that,” you laugh nervously. “He was just giving me a back massage.”
It was kinda the truth, but Kenma looks dubious. 
“It sounded more than a massage.”
He covers his lips with his back hand so he wouldn’t laugh. Although his rascal self wants to tease you more, he can’t let you feel any more embarrassed than this. He looks at Kenma and shakes his head minutely with a knowing look, hinting not to push the subject any further. 
“Naah. Y/n here is just really stressed so she moans like she’s being fucked.” Okay, maybe he couldn’t completely let it slide after all. 
You irritatedly look at him and punch his arm with more force than usual. “Piss off,” you hiss. 
He dramatically rubs the arm you just hit. “Ow! So violent.”
Kenma ignores the antics and just passes by you two. He’s about to plop himself on the couch, but pauses. He instead gets a chair and seats himself there.
You couldn’t overlook that. Obviously, in Kenma’s mind, you and Kuroo were doing something indecent there so he doesn’t want to be in it. You want to clear it up to Kenma that you really weren’t doing anything of that sort. Well, you were about to pounce on Kuroo, but still, it didn’t actually happen. 
In a way, you’re relieved that Kenma interrupted at the right time. You might have done something you will harrowingly regret afterwards.
“Don’t sweat it, y.n. He just misinterpreted it.” Kuroo’s unusually magnanimous today. It’s strange. He wouldn’t have lived this down on a regular day. Maybe it's because of your no sex relationship? Still, this is aberrant of him. He shouldn’t fail to notice how that last  moan of yours was not of comfort. 
“Right?” He adds, his eyes gauging your own.
So that’s how it is. He is aware. But he’s giving you the option to disregard what just almost happened. You’re relieved, but also confused at the tiny shards of disappointment prickling in your chest. This is what you wanted, for you to avoid sex and Kuroo in the same room. It shouldn’t be confusing.
You look down and break away from the eye contact. You put a hand on your hip and the other on your temple, which then moves to brush your hair back.
With a long, audible puff, you speak.
“Of course, it was nothing,” you return to his gaze with a dry expression to camouflage the lie behind your words. But at the same time, you also wait for him to say something or for his eyes to show something other than indifference. You don’t know what it is you want or expect, but you wait for it. You’ll know it when you see it. 
It doesn’t come though as he shrugs it off like it was nothing. 
Disappointed, that’s what you are. You don’t like the feeling, but you are.
You ring your driver again, hoping that this time he’ll finally answer. If he doesn’t get to you any soon, you’ll be late for your shoot. You can’t be late for this shoot in particular. Mitsuki’s the creative director. She’s a very pleasant one, but she absolutely hates tardiness. No exceptions. She gets all sour and crank when someone’s late. 
The other end of the line picks up. “Ms l/n. I’m so sorry. One of the tires got flat. I need to change it, but I’m still stuck in traffic.”
Of all the days to get a flat tire on a heavy traffic, it had to be this day. You exhale heavily to clear the irritation getting under your skin. 
“How long before you’re here?”
“I think about an hour, Ms.”
You aren’t the type to get mad at hired help, but you’re really in a pinch. In an hour, you should be in hair and make up already, not arriving only then. Mitsuki gets enraged when someone’s 15 minutes late. To be late an hour, you can’t imagine how she’d be. There’s no way you’re going to wait here for an hour.
“Don’t come anymore. Just get it fixed.” You say coldly before you end the call. It wasn’t the driver’s fault. You wouldn’t bother getting a driver if your car hadn’t been acting up recently. Being dumb this morning, you forgot about your busted car and was late in this morning’s meeting with a client. You found yourself brisk walking in heels at the hotel’s lobby earlier just to save yourself from any more delayed minutes. And now, even your driver’s car is jacked up. 
“Y.n?”
You turn around at the recognizable calm voice you heard. It’s Kenma, except he wasn’t alone. Kuroo is right there beside him. It was kind of weird to see them together at this place and both in business wear. 
“What’re you two doing here?” 
“I’m working with Kenma here to sponsor our next promotional video.”
You just stared at the two of them. You’re used to the three of you just fooling around when you’re together. Meeting like this when you’re all in the middle of doing your jobs is something new to you. 
“And who might you be giving a hard time on the phone, hmm y.n.?”
They heard that? They must both be near while you were getting bummed out from being late this morning and potentially late this afternoon. 
“Ah! I need to go. My driver can’t make it. I’m going to be late,” you spiral back to your hectic schedule. “Bye.” You give them a quick wave, and despite your heels, you walk as fast as you could towards the entrance of the hotel. 
You try to hail cabs that were passing by, but almost every cab was occupied. And for some reason, someone always managed to get the empty cabs before you can even spot them. To worsen your luck, it began to rain. You frantically tap your left foot on the concrete as the panic sets in you.
Mitsuki’s gonna kill me.
You bite your lip and contemplate how you’re going to arrive in the venue on time. The answer you found made you turn back on your heels to go back inside the hotel, only to find them already there behind you. 
“You’re here,” you exhale, relieved that they haven’t gone anywhere out of your sight. “I’m in a bind. Can anyone give me a ride?” 
The two men exchanged pithy looks, but you don’t bother figuring out what that could’ve meant. You just need the help you typically won’t ask for since you’re always doing things on your own.
“I can’t. I have a stream coming up. Sorry, y.n.” Kenma first spoke. You shift to Kuroo, hoping that he can give you the time of day. “Yea, sure. Am free for the rest of the day actually.” He says with a brief smile. 
“Oh, thank God!” The panic and nerves were clearing out of your system. Despite the awkwardness of your previous massage fiasco, right now, you’re glad that he can help. 
“Bye, then.” Kenma quickly took his leave as the hotel valet stepped out from his car and handed him his keys. 
“Should we go now?” Kuroo asked. “Aren’t we waiting for your car?” “No. I don’t want strangers handling my car.” “Then why did you go here?”
Amusement shows on his face at your question. “I saw your cute attempt to hail a cab. Is that how rich kids do it? Let someone else steal their ride for them?” You smile sweetly, disgustingly sweet, then roll your eyes before saying, “Let’s just go.”
You told him the location of the shoot. The drive was comfortable as you both share work conversations with your usual banters on the side. Being friends with Kuroo is confusing and reassuring at the same time. With the history you two shared, you need to tread the waters of your friendship carefully every once in a while. If it wasn’t the sexual tension, it was the affection you felt towards him that would sometimes seem like resurfacing. Even with all that, you can’t bear to walk away from what you presently have. You feel like you really found genuine company with him and Kenma.
“We’re here. Let me just get an umbrella.” He looks back to the back seat and stretches his right arm to reach for it. The current angle of his face emphasized his sharp jaw and the length of his neck. You were just thinking how you need to tread carefully, but easier said than done when you know exactly how your fingers have grazed that jaw, how your tongue has tasted that neck, and much more. 
“What’s taking you so long? I might as well get drenched from the rain,” you snap because you can’t stand your own indecent thoughts. 
“Found it.” He says and returns to his normal sitting position. “Why the hell are you suddenly cranky? Geez.” You feel bad for being suddenly grouchy. He was just being nice and you were being nasty for reasons you can’t tell him. “Sorry. Just don’t want to be late,” you apologized.
He shrugs it off nonchalantly. “Hey. Where’s my umbrella?” You ask when you see him reaching for the door with only one umbrella in his hand. 
“We’re sharing this. I only have one.”
You purse your lips to the side and sharply avert your eyes elsewhere, your irritation resurfacing again. You feel uncomfortable with the idea of being that physically close to him. You’ve pushed the massage incident behind, but that doesn’t mean you’ve forgotten about it. 
“What is up with you? What are you so pissed about?”
“Nothing. Can we go now?”
He stares at you for a good 3 seconds before getting out and opening his umbrella. He moves to your side of the vehicle and opens the door. You get out and try to avoid any raindrops. He closes the door and presses his car keys to lock the vehicle. 
You both start to walk towards the entrance of the place. You’ve never felt more awkward in your life. You’re avoiding getting past the edge of the umbrella while also avoiding Kuroo’s body. 
“Why is your umbrella so small?” 
“The heck are you talkin about? This is the standard size.”
You don’t answer him. The umbrella isn’t small. He’s just huge and his whole body occupied almost all the space under the shade. You flinch when he suddenly grabs you by the shoulder and pulls you close, so close that you can feel the firmness of his body pressed onto yours. 
You raise your gaze to him with a raised eyebrow. 
“You’re gonna get wet if we don’t huddle closer.” You could accept his reason, if only you didn’t catch the miniscule curl of his lips and the skittish glint in his eyes. It was so typical of him really. Maybe you should stop being so worked up all the time. 
“Fine.” Even though he was messing you, you can’t deny that it’s much more comfortable. You’re safe from the rain and his body provided heat from the coldness of the downpour.
He doesn’t do or say anything more as you both get to the doorway of the bar where the shoot will be held. He puts down the umbrella when you reach the shade of the building. Before you’re able to get away from Kuroo’s hold, the door opens. Mitsuki was holding her phone to her ear when she met your eyes. 
“I was calling you and you weren’t — oh.” Her eyes flew to the hand on your shoulder and traveled to its owner. “Well, well, y/n. You leave for a good while, then come back loaded.” You can always count on Mitsku to not hold her tongue. You gently release yourself from Kuroo’s hold to avoid looking defensive. “It’s not like that,” was your thrift reply. 
“Kuroo, this is Mitsuki, my creative director for today, sometimes my friend too. Mitsuki, this is Kuroo.” 
Both of them exchange casual greetings for meeting the first time. 
“How come you mention our relationship, but not yours?” referring to you and Kuroo. You sigh. “He’s also a friend.” You turn to Kuroo and thank him for the ride and his time. 
“Is your driver picking you up?” he asked.
You seal your eyes shut at your own stupidity. Because you were panicking and irritated, you sent your driver home. You open them again and purse your lips in a straight line. “No. I’ll just take a cab.”
“With your cab-hailing skills in this rain? Good luck with that.” he snorts. “Haha. Real funny.” From the corner of your eyes, you see Mitsuki with an entertained grin on her face, obviously enjoying the exchange between you and Kuroo. 
“Call me when you’re done. I’ll come pick you up then.” You want to protest but it will just drag on. You don’t want Mitsuki seeing more of the dynamics of your relationship, so you thriftly say “Okay.”
“Kuroo-san, right?” Both of you shift your attention to Mitsuki. “Actually, we need a male model because the scheduled one today is a total wimp and cancelled last minute.” She shamelessly eyed Kuroo from head to toe. So that’s why she was about to call you. The shoot was cancelled. 
When she looks at you, you mouth the word “no” to let her know that she shouldn’t do what you think she’s about to do. The reaction you got was her smiling widening before speaking to Kuroo. “Do you have an agent? Can we talk over the phone right now to discuss?”
That’s when you step forward. “Uhhh. He’s not a model. He used to be a volleyball player, hence the height and build.” You say defensively. You nudge Kuroo with your elbow so that he’ll back you up, but he doesn’t say anything. He’s just there waiting for Mitsuki’s next words. 
“An athlete, I see.” She nods approvingly. “That’s perfect! I don’t have to talk to anyone. It’s completely up to you then.”
“Errr. I don’t really know anything about modeling. Sorry.”
Your relief was short-lived when she tugs you to her direction and grips both of your shoulders. “Then your friend here can guide you. She’ll be your co-model anyways.” 
He probably figured out by now why you were so apprehensive during the conversation just now. You don’t want him as your co-model. 
His grin just confirmed your thoughts. “I’ll go for it then.” His eyes sparkling with mischief made you surrender. You already admit defeat in your head even though the shoot is just about to start. 
You both get in hair and makeup. Being a woman, you take longer to finish. The clothes the stylists are arranging on you are taking while as well.  They let you wear a very long, elegant gold dress that fits your upper body like your second skin, but the material is flowy from your waist down. When you arrive at the set, he’s already there talking with Mitsuki while waiting for you. Mitsuki notices you first. “Alright! We’re good to go.”
When Kuroo faces you, you almost don’t recognize him. His usual emo bangs were gone. They brushed his hair up cleanly. The suit he was wearing earlier was replaced by gray slacks and white long sleeve polo that has two top buttons open. You have conflicted feelings towards the hair and make up staff that did the work. They did a remarkable job with his overall style. He does look like a model like this. But also, why the hell did they make him look this damn good? The regular Kuroo was bad enough for you.
“This feels weird. I feel like I have too many things on me.” You scowl at his remark. “Too many? Wanna try being a girl?” He’s about to retort but Mitsuki claps twice which calls both of your attention.
“So our client is a liquor brand and the theme is something like wild love at the bar. What I want is you two giving the impression of having a passionate first encounter while you’re out drinking. Give me something and we’ll work it out as we go on, mkay?” 
You knew you’d be working with a male model for this brand, but you didn’t expect that they’d go with something like this. You thought it was just going to be glamour shots to showcase the drink.
But what Mitsuki said, ‘Wild love at the bar’?? That is not something you’d want to be doing with him. It reminded you of the first night you met. 
“I’m all ears on what to do, y/n” His haughty smile doesn’t help the situation one bit. You take a deep breath. This is not the time to muck around. You’re the experienced one, so you’ll be taking the lead. “Swear to me that you’ll take this seriously.” You glare at him, no trails of humor apparent. The change in his demeanor surprised you. You forgot how intimidating he can get when he’s serious. You’re so used to him being an idiot all the time that it catches you off guard. But for today, you’re glad to have it.
You explain to him how the whole shoot will go. For the first shot, you ask a staff member for a chair and tell Kuroo to sit on it. “Get the glass with the liquor and look at the camera while holding it.” He did as you told, except he has this perplexed look on his face with a noticeable discomfort from the way his lips curled in a corner. 
“On second thought, maybe this is a bad idea,” he said after trying the first time. You want to agree with him, but the shoot is already happening. You just want to get over it already since you’re already there. “Nooo. Uh-uh.” Mitsuki’s tone took a sharp turn. She wasn’t happy with what Kuroo said. “Just imagine you’re in a bar, chilling with your favorite drink and you just snagged the hottest girl in the place.” 
“Hottest girl aka me,” you comment on her instruction. That seemed to work because he changed back to his normal self and looked at you with amusement. “Just like the night we met, huh?” He said it low enough for only you to hear, but you still glanced nervously to Mitsuki if she caught any of it.  
“That’s a nice expression, Kuroo! Keep looking at her like that.” You ease up since it looks like she didn’t hear it. You put your elbow on his shoulder and tilt your hips to give your waist an S curve while angling your body towards him at the same time. You lift your chin up a bit and look at the camera with parted lips.
“Yep. Looking good dear.” Mitsuki signals the photographer to start taking the shots. You both slightly alter your angles so the pose will have variations. Sometimes you look at Kuroo, smile flirtatiously at him, or look at the camera in a sultry way. Every time you two would look at each other, you’d ‘cheat’ and look at the bridge of his nose to give the illusion that you’re actually looking at his eye. 
While looking at the shots from a separate screen, she suddenly asks the photographer to stop. You both straighten your bodies while awaiting instructions.  “It looks nice,” she said before looking at your direction. “But it’s boring. There’s nothing wild about it.”  You space out for a bit because for the first time, you don’t know how to proceed. You’re used to fashion shoots and runway. You’ve never had an ad with this theme. “Y.n, dear, can you be a bit aggressive towards him?”
You raise your eyebrow from disbelief. “A-aggressive?”
Mitsuki nods. “Throw yourself at him, dominate him, take control. mkay?” You feel a bit pressured when she’s just looking at you two and waiting for you to start posing for the camera. You don’t have a solid idea in your head, but you just go for it. You try to prop yourself up on the bar counter, but your dress won’t allow you.
Kuroo notices your dilemma and gets up from his seat. “You could’ve asked for help, you know.” He positions himself in front of you and grabs your waist. His hands were strong yet gentle. With your palms still on the surface of the counter, he lifts you up while you put weight on your arms so you can usher yourself properly. You’ve been deliberately avoiding his gaze, but right now, your eyes are glued to his face. 
“Yes. Like that.” You both flick your gaze towards Mitsuki. “Do that.” She instructs the photographer to move the side so the angle of the shot captures you both without him blocking you completely. You realize the position you two have. “I agreed to this to make you uncomfortable, but I’m not gonna lie. I’m the one extremely uncomfortable right now.” Kuroo whispers with a hint of regret on his face. The camera flashes start going off but something clicked between the two of you that you two end up laughing. It’s probably the awkwardness and the nerves that’s been hanging on the air that something so shallow as Kuroo admitting his uneasiness, cracked you both up.
It was just a brief exchange of laughter but you feel relaxed. Even though Mistuki is pretty cool for a creative director, she’s still as serious as any professional. So when you see her smiling as you apologized for the delay, you’re a bit shocked.
“No worries dear. Let’s continue then.”
You feel more confident now. You’re you. The reason you became successful on an international level is because of your professionalism and ability to produce quality results.
From being seated on the counter, you’re a few centimeters taller than Kuroo. That completed the idea in your head. You took the glass drink and placed it on your right hand. “Put your hands on my hips,” you tell him then lightly lift his chin with your index finger, “and look at me like you worship me.” The command earned a raised eyebrow from him but you pay no heed to it.
You extend an arm over his right shoulder, the glass dangling on your fingertips. With your index finger on his chin, you look to the camera with provocative eyes. If anything looks wrong with Kuroo, you’ll just let Mitsuki handle it. After all, she’s the one who asked him to be a part of this. 
“Oh yea! That’s really good.” Compared to before, she looks pleased with the shots now. The pose was captured a few times before she speaks again. “Instead of using your finger, grab his hair to tilt his head back.” You comply immediately and tugs his locks downwards. You might’ve done it a bit rougher than you wanted because you heard a raspy grunt from his throat. You got distracted, so instead of looking at the camera, you look at him. 
You regret it. When you said he should look at you with worship, you didn’t think he’d do it this well. Because his hair is pushed completely all the way back, you see every aspect of his face. Nothing was blocking his eyes that were full of yearning and desire. He’s looking at you like you’re not just the hottest girl in the bar, but the most beautiful person he’s ever laid eyes one. 
“Pull him closer and look here y.n.” You do as you’re told, thankful that you needed to look somewhere else. “Damn. You two look so good right now.” She gently claps her hands while looking at the monitor.
“I’m already satisfied, but let’s just do one more for another option. Umm, Kuroo. You be the aggressor this time. Y/n, …. you know what to do.” She winks after.
Well, not really you don’t. She just wants you to do the thinking on what to do. You put the glass down and put both your hands on his shoulders. “Help me down?” You ask with an easygoing smile. You don’t want to ruin the momentum of the shoot, so you decide to be nice to him for now. 
 “You got it,” then his hand travels up your waist and guides you down back to the floor. You tell him to lean on the counter. He follows with no complaints. You get his arm and ushers him to wrap it on your waist. When he goes along with your silent instruction, you raise your leg to his side.   
“Tug my skirt up to my thighs.”
He doesn’t react and just squints at you.. “Huh?” Since he did not grasp what you meant, you take it to yourself to do it and slowly gather the material at the ends. Then, you yank it up to your thigh. “Get it?” He whistles as he gets the cloth from your hands. “Hey. Don’t do that. If you’re a real model, you’d be in trouble if I report that behavior.”
“But I’m not a real model, am I?” You glare at his provocation. You won’t be having any of his crap at your workplace. “Kuroo,” you say with a menacing glare and he immediately gets the threat behind it. “My bad, my bad. I’ll behave again, kay? Stop scowling now.” You relax your face and take a deep breath. “Moving on then.” You enclose your left arm on his neck while you plant your right on his chest. You don’t want to direct him any further than this. If this is unsatisfactory, Mitsuki will say something. 
Aaaand she does. “Kuroo-san. Aggressive please. Own her. You don’t want her to get away from you.” Upon hearing Mitsuki’s additional instructions, everything about him intensifies three folds. He pulls you even closer, causing your breath to hitch when his face is dangerously near yours all of a sudden. His sleeves don’t do anything to mask the firmness of his arms. And even with the velvet fabric, you can still the strength of his thighs as they’re pinned on yours. The heat of his hand ignited the skin of your thigh as he clutched the fabric and your flesh forcefully. And his eyes, they no longer worship you. They spoke of something similar, but not quite. 
He wants to devour you whole. 
It was too overwhelming for you, so you look away and close your eyes dramatically to make it seem like you’re being swept away in the moment. After one camera flash, “Okay dear, but I need you to look at him this time.”
The few seconds of breaking away from his fiery stare did you some good. You were able to collect yourself again, but not enough to truly look at him. You just focus your gaze right between his eyes as you did earlier.  
“Nooo. When I said look at him, I meant really look at him. Respond with your own passion. You’re looking a bit of a scared vegetable right now, honey.” You’ve never had feedback like that in forever. Maybe when you tried modeling the first few months, you received something similar to that. But never when you started doing it full time. 
You don’t want to, but you have to. You finally meet his gaze and tap into something inside yourself that you’ve been holding back. You let your desire for him deluge you, let it surge through your veins until you’re aching for him. You push yourself even closer to him, not allowing even air to pass between your bodies. 
“Yes! YES! You want him so much, but you shouldn’t.” 
It was just as she said. You want him so much, so much that it almost hurts. You part your lips slightly as you get lost in the moment.
“Oh my God.” Her words sounded distant. It was there. You can hear it, but what clouded your senses was your heart pounding hard against your chest, his hot breath mingling with yours, and the way his eyes are now devoted to your lips. Not long after, he angles his face so that your lips are almost touching. Just a tiptoe and a kiss will already take place. You clench your fingers on his shirt, holding yourself back from that one tiny push that will allow you to feel his lips on yours again. 
“Holy Shit! HOLY SHIT! That was it. That was the money shot.” Mitsuki’s shrill voice which was followed by her squeal broke the trance you were in. You know what she meant. The shoot is done. Yet, you still feel hot. The heated atmosphere around you two still hasn’t caved in. He let go of your thigh as you put some space away from him. You settle your hands on his shoulders while you rest your forehead on his chest. He doesn’t move either. His hand remains on your waist, but without the force this time. With his other hand, he caringly skims the curve of your shoulder. 
“You okay, kitten?”
His voice is so gentle, you nearly convince yourself that it sounded loving. You nod weakly before heading back to the dressing room without saying anything. 
Kuroo’s gaze followed your back as you disappeared. He was amazed but also bothered at what just happened. You looked really into it, like you really wanted him. If the shoot didn’t finish any sooner, he might have closed that tiny gap that separated your lips from his. He’s been aching for you for so long that his control is slipping inch by inch every time there’s an opportunity to cross that line of friendship you set. When he saw you let go and completely relent within his hold, it was maddening at how he couldn’t have you at the moment. What’s worse is that even without the glamorous set, he knows you’re still not his to have. 
He walks towards the room where his clothes were hung and changes back to his usual suit. He asked the make up staff to remove everything on his face. He doesn’t like the feeling of having a layer of cosmetics on his skin. The hair they couldn’t do anything about because they used a lot of product to fix it up. 
When he gets out of the room, Mitsuki approaches him with a satisfied look on her face
“You did so well for someone with no experience at all. Do you have a card? I can hook you up for other gigs. You’ll do great.”
He smiles graciously at her generous offer, but he doesn’t want it. “Sorry, but I’m not really interested. I only did it cause it was her.” He said truthfully. Mitsuki’s mouth curled in amusement. “You know, y.n’s really good to work with. She always had this cool facade that never went down, and it works for her. We love her for it. But today,” she pauses as she gives him a meaningful look. “I’ve never seen her show such vulnerability and rawness. It was,” she sighs with admiration for you.
“Beautiful, wasn’t it?” He knows exactly what she’s saying. After all, he has seen several times how captivating your authenticity can be. 
“Soo, are you two dating or what?” Her eyebrows twitch up and down from anticipation at what he’s about to answer. He badly wants to say yes, but he doesn’t have that luxury. “Naaah. Like she said, I’m just a friend.”
She’s obviously dissatisfied with his response. He is too, but that’s the lousy truth. Out of the blue, she takes her phone out. “Too bad though. You two looked really good here.” She showed him the photo and it was you and him earlier. You were seated in the counter with your arms on his shoulders and his hands on your waist. It was when you were both laughing at his stupid statement.
“Can you send me that photo?”
“Why should I?”
He’s well aware of what she’s trying to do. It’s a business transaction, except for the lack of formality. She wants to get something in return, and he knows exactly what it is. 
“You’re good.” He admits with an impressed glint in his eyes.
“I am. So what’ll it be?” He knows that she knows she has the upperhand of the negotiation. She could probably tell that there’s something going on with the two of you. It’s just a matter of deciding which information to give her. But he didn’t have the fortune of having too many options. He didn’t want to reveal the nature of your relationship before. He wasn’t sure of your feelings for him. He can only speak for himself. 
“Fine. I sorta like her.” 
Her eyes brighten up. “Aha! I knew it. You should totally ask her out, kay? You’re gonna have tall and beautiful babies.” She put one hand on her cheek and closed her eyes while screeching at her own daydream of you and him getting together. When she calms down, she sends you the image file. “For real though. I’ve never seen her like that,” she points to your dazzling face in laughter in the photo. 
“Hey. What’re you two talking about?” You’re back to your normal clothes, but your hair and makeup was still there. 
“Nothing. Let’s go now?” He spoke immediately before your nosy director could say something. He walks to your direction before heading out together. “Bye! Update me, Kuroo-san!” Mitsuki said as she waved goodbye. You couldn’t help but be curious on what he should update her about. 
The rain stopped so no more umbrella horseplay. When you both get inside his car, you immediately ask him, “What was that about?”
“Uhh. She asked if I wanted to do other modeling projects.”
“Do you?”
He didn’t hesitate before answering, “No. That sort of stuff is not for me. I only did it to piss you off.” He starts the engine, then pivots his body to face you. “I must say though. I enjoyed seeing you eyefuck me.” Just when you are getting used to the peaceful, non-smug Kuroo, his true personality kicks right back in. Good thing you took your time getting changed and basically just calmed yourself down. 
“Glad you did. That’s the most you can get from me after all.”
His smile turned upside down at your remark. “Tch.” Your lips tug upwards at the side from his lack of retaliation. 
“I haven’t told you yet, but it wasn’t my first modeling experience.” 
You’re a bit surprised. Even though he has the appearance of a model, you didn’t think he’d do it. You agree with what he said just a while ago. It wasn’t for him. He’s best at his job right now. 
He gets his phone and scrolls up. He must be looking for a photo to show you as proof. When you see his screen, your heart swells. It was you and him a year ago. The neckline of your shirt was pulled to your shoulder for a makeshift off-shoulder while he knotted his t-shirt to form a crop top. You two wore large smiles while posing silly in front of the cam. It was right after when you told him that you’re a model.
“I- you... umm. You kept these?” You swipe the screen and see every single photo you took that day. Not one was deleted. You remember the laughter and absurd joy behind each frame. 
“Yea. Why wouldn’t I?”
One more swipe and there’s no other photo after yours. That’s when you notice that the photos are in the Favorites album. You felt like you were about to tear up. You’ve never felt so cherished in your whole life. Even though you left without saying a proper goodbye and no indication of going back, he still kept them. You tried so hard to forget about him, yet there he was, keeping these small tokens of what you had - proof that you really had been a part of his life.You felt something inside you crumble piece by piece. You should be scared, but at the moment, you don’t feel any fear. Instead, you were enraptured. 
You can feel your cheeks hurting from how wide your grin is. You don’t bother hiding it from him. 
“Can you send these to me?” You turn to him with the smile still plastered on your face, but he frowns at your question. 
“Those photos came from you.” 
You look back at his phone, your big smile reduced into a faint one that’s traced with melancholy. “I deleted them when I went to the US.” If he asks why, you wouldn’t know how to answer. Fortunately, he doesn’t. He gets his phone back from your hand and fiddles with it a bit. A few seconds later, you hear a notification from your own phone. When you open it, all the photos are sent to you. 
He looks at you warmly, his face devoid of anything but heartfelt fondness. “There. Like you never got rid of them.”
---
You lie on your bed with bottomless thoughts that night. Kuroo’s words weighed more than they should in your head as you stare at the photos. 
You deleted them to completely erase any trace of his existence in your life. Now they’re back in your phone with not a single photo missing from the stack. Ironically, it’s also you who asked for them back. Yet, you don’t mind. You came to accept that those memories existed. They happened. There’s no use trying to forget they did when he’s already back in your life anyways.
Looking at you and Kuroo in the images, you can’t avoid thinking how simple those times were. You were just two cool people who had sex for fun. You had no clue things would happen as they did - falling for him, leaving, and for some reason - destiny or whatever, meeting him again. The past you tried to leave behind crept up to you and there wasn’t anything you could do about it.
You thought you’ve moved on. You’ve thoroughly convinced yourself that you’ve disposed of all unnecessary emotions that involved Kuroo. You thought that whatever it is that you felt when you met him again was just remnants of yesterday. You were so wrong. That‘s just what you tried to tell yourself, repeating the idea over and over in your head until you believed it. 
But it never really happened. You haven’t forgotten about him. When you went on dates in the U.S., you’d remember him. So you stopped trying to see anyone and attributed that to being scared of getting hurt again. Hence, you shut yourself out to anyone until you no longer found dating to be interesting. You told yourself getting in a relationship would just get in the way of your career. 
That wasn’t true. 
The truth is just as he said. Your feelings for him are still there, you never did get rid of them. The question now is how to proceed from here.
You jerk when your phone rings right at your hand. 
‘Kuroo’
You don’t want to answer it. You basically just admitted to yourself that you’re still in love with him. Hearing his voice right now would be dangerous for your fragile heart.
But it might be something important. He doesn’t usually call.
You press the answer button. You were about to say hello, but your heart was beating so fast that you were unable to get any word out.
“Hello?”
You swallowed the lump in your throat so you could speak. “Yeah?”
“Is something wrong? You sound a bit off?” How he could tell even through a phone call is unbelievable. “Everything’s fine. Why’d you call anyways?” You do your best to sound normal. “Block your Thursday next week. I’m throwing a party.”
“What for?”
“Mmm. Just felt like having one.”
You minimize the call to check your calendar if you had any plans that day. “Alright. I have an event in the morning, but that night’s free.”
“Nice!!” He sounded a bit too glad. 
“Is that why you called?” It’s a bit suspicious that he rang you just for that. It’s just a party. He could’ve texted you instead. 
“Why? Am I not allowed to call when I want to?” Your heart skips a beat from the playful tone in his voice. You picture him smirking on his phone while he’s lying in bed. You bite your lip at the image in your head. 
Screw you and your stupid imagination. 
“Good night, Kuroo.” You said dismissively. It doesn’t seem like he’s going to say anything else important anyways. He chuckles from the other line before speaking so ever softly with tenderness that gives you butterflies in your stomach.
“Good night, kitten.” 
It was just a simple good night but you were reeling. You fight the smile that was forcing itself to form on your lips. You look at your photos one more time and sigh. 
You are so in love with him. 
On the other end, Kuroo is all smiles to himself. Nothing beats hearing your voice after a long day. Once again, he stares at the photo Mitsuki gave him that afternoon. He wishes it was real. He wishes you were smiling for him, laughing with him, and happy with him. If only you gave any indication that you like him more than a friend, he would’ve made his move. 
Even though he knows you still desire him, he wouldn’t settle for just sex. He doesn’t want a repeat of the past. He wants something further than that and more importantly, you deserve better than that. But so far, he could tell you were enjoying the friendship and companionship only. Even if he wanted to take things forward, he’s not sure that that’s what you want. You haven’t given anything away for him to make his move. He doesn’t want to risk it and have you running for the hills. 
Will he ever make you fall for him? Should he just leave things as is or do something bolder for you to realize that to him, you’re not just a friend?
He sighs. 
He’s so in love with you.

Speakeasy Tonight Neil Season 3 Fanfic- Chapter 8
Author notes: +16, some subjects may be sensitive to some readers. (Violence and harassment)
Hello! Here’s chapter 8! Can’t believe Im almost done with it! I plan on going until chapter 10 or 11, but we are almost done with the Adler saga! Thank you so much for reading until here! Let’s go on until the end! Enjoy!
Candy (08/16/2020)
Chapter 8- Behind the eight ball
There was a tenseness in the air the whole day while I was at the Ice Box. Vince couldn’t seem to be able to quiet down. Cliff dried glasses that were already dry, Neil was on his third bourbon glass, Donovan grunted every now and then as if he wanted to disagree with something. Even Julius and Cleo sounded off key every now and then
Me and Vince going to dinner that night was messing with everybody’s head in different ways. You could feel in your body that it was like walking into the lions’ den, that you’re putting your life on the line. The anticipation never made me feel so alive before, even if I was scared. My heart palpitated inside my chest, reminding me to be ready, attentive and most of all: careful.
Vince was up and running, but I could tell sometimes he felt pain. His tough exterior and his Italian hot-blooded head didn’t permit him to show weakness for long. That was the Mad Dog alright, no one could keep him down more than a night. Some might say Vince is empty headed due to his lack of skills in grammar, math, manners or anything society deems essential to make it big, but they haven’t been in Vince’s shoes. I didn’t know what had happened to his parents although I heard something about a terrible death when he was a kid, but he was always a survivor. On top of it, he had a way of dealing with people much like I did. He was a salesman whenever he opened his mouth, and people were convinced by his words. And in case they weren’t, he carried his fists and his favorite gun “Pearl”. Having him at my side tonight made my fears controlled enough for me to be sure I could make it out alive out of the mayor’s house that night.
In contrast, there was the man I had fallen in love with. If Vince was the tough man that broke, bent and hurt, Neil was there to fix, put together and heal. The steady hands of the Doc were so much different than the vicious, trained fighter that was Vince Moretti. For this reason he had to stay behind. Someone like the mayor wasn’t his job and he knew it. I could also tell it bothered him to an extreme and that he wished he could do more than just sit still and wait. I reckoned it was the same feeling he had in the war
Whenever the riflemen went ahead to fight, as a medic he must’ve always stayed a little further behind, until he heard a cry for him. I must imagine when they came back many were bleeding and most died. He wasn’t in the thick of action but he always had to deal with the consequences, the aftermath. The admiration for him for doing so grew everyday. Not many would have been able to do it, and even for Neil, the darkness of it almost took over completely. So I couldn’t help but feel he was scared of this dinner, because its the action he wouldn’t be able to partake in, but was wondering if either me or Vince wouldn’t come back unscathed.
The only way I knew how to soothe him was to play leader, act confident. So my feet took me to him, and hugged him around his shoulders from behind. Although his focus remained on the bourbon, I could feel the tenseness in his shoulders ease
-Guess who called me this morning, before I came in?- I said and he turned his head to the side- Your mother
-Mother?-This time he turned to me. It was a weird thing hearing that word come out of his mouth. Being estranged from his family for so long... Hearing him mention a parent made him look younger and softer in my eyes. It wasn’t bad, it was just different- What about?
-She said she’s terribly sorry my last visit to Boston didn’t turn out the way it should have and we should come up again for a formal engagement dinner. I’m betting it’ll be incredibly ritzy and she did invite my family, which means Uncle Charlie will be there!
He seemed to ponder over it for a few seconds- And I’m guessing you agreed, so I have no choice but to attend another social gathering. If I knew a wedding involved meeting with so many people so often I would’ve suggested we did it all in secrecy
-Oh, don’t be a wet blanket! You only get married once!
-Thank the heavens for that- He raised his glass and I punched him in the arm, making him spill some of it- Ow! Hey! Fine, I get it. We’ll go.
-Great. It’s this weekend
-Isn’t it too early? With the whole mayor ordeal?
-It’ll be fine, it’s just a weekend. Besides, the wedding planner did say all the invitations finished being sent out yesterday!-I said with a lot more enthusiasm in me than he had in him. I would’ve taken offense otherwise, but it’s Neil. He never really made a big deal out of most things, wedding invitations included
I asked Cliff for a drink and for a while we were just sitting in a comfortable silence, I was about to propose a chess game when the phone rang
-It’s Charlie, MC. He wants to talk to you- Cliff said
I made my way there, thanking him before picking it up- Hey, Unc
-Hey, Kiddo. Been hearing quite a lot about the mayor from over here- He said cheerfully. He sounded healthier, which made me happier about my decision to send him back for a few weeks, even if it turned out being longer than I expected
-Yea, he’s been some trouble, but we’re actually almost done with him- I mentioned the documents and the dinner, catching up on all of the business recently. Then, we spent some time catching up on family and those little things about relatives like Aunt Mabel or cousin Katrina that didn’t really matter much but if was nice to talk about. I mentioned the Boston dinner and I could hear him smiling through the phone, letting me know he’d tell my family
-Listen, MC. It’s time I went back to Chicago.
-We’re almost done, Uncle Charlie. I’ll let you know!
-I know you were worried about my health. I’m glad you sent this old man away for a few weeks. I needed to call you and tell you that even though I set things up for the long term there for you, it’s time I officially retired from the Ice Box and handed over the keys to you
-Uncle...
-I won’t go anywhere, I’ll come in once in a while. It’d give me the chance to take it easy, now that I know the place is in good hands. We’ll still work together at the appliance store- He paused, thinking about his next words- But before I do, I can’t just drop everything on your shoulders. I know the Ice Box has risks and I’ve been in this business way longer than you have. I have plenty to offer before I step down for good. I wanna work on this one last job together.
I didn’t know if his desire was out of pride, or if he was missing his true home and family that he found within the Ice Box. I knew I couldn’t keep Uncle Charlie away for too long, but there was a resolve in his voice that I had to respect
-I could use you here, Unc- That was my answer
He laughed- I thought it’d take more than that to convince you. When we meet in Boston, I’ll come back to Chicago with you and Neil
-Sounds like a plan. I’ll let everyone know.

As the afternoon went on with preparations for the dinner I still had one thing on my mind. I needed to tell Neil I was expecting, that much I already knew. But either something seemed to get in the way, or I got too nervous to say anything. Part of me wondered if it was the universe telling me to tell him later. However, I knew that going to this dinner without telling him would betray his trust
At night when the Ice Box opened and people started to fill up the place, I decided it was time to tell him. With less than an hour before I left and everyone doing their jobs I pulled Neil away from the loud music and excited dancing to the back room
-Did you really pull me here for necking?
I laughed kissing him gently- I could have but... No. I actually need to talk to you. Remember I was trying to tell you something last week? I-
-MC, you in there?-I could hear Vince knocking- We have to go
-Oh for Pete’s sake, this isn’t happening tonight- I grabbed both of his arms looking into his eyes- I’m pregnant.
His eyes weren’t wide with surprise, but the shock was visible, more as if he had just realized something rather than just found something out. His brows twisted, trying to read in my face if I was joking or being serious. Something in my eyes must’ve convinced him, because he let out a sigh, and I could tell he was trying to find the words to say.
-MC!-Vince called again
-I have to go, now... We’ll talk about it tonight- I opened the door
-Wait a second...-He turned to follow me and I knew he was going to try to stop me.
Against my better judgement I forced myself to move to move faster- I have to go!-I repeated myself- There’s no other way
-MC!-I heard Neil’s voice but I was already far away. I could hear him following me outside but I stepped in Vince’s car and told him to drive away
I didn’t allow myself to feel heartless. A decision had to be done and it was the hard one. Although I knew within me I made the right choice by telling him before I went, I knew I had to go. I would probably face the consequences of it later, but what mattered is that the Ice Box would be safe, and Neil would still know.
-You alright, there?-Vince asked while driving
-Yes, there’s just too much going on at once- I answered- Once this night is over it’ll be a weight lifted off our shoulders. Are you ready to steal those documents?
-I am. Going to the John upstairs, his office is third door on the left and the documents are all in folders on the bottom drawer of his desk
-You got it. If you have time though, find out if there’s anything anywhere else, There must be some more important papers laying around.
-I got it, doll. You just focus on distracting the mayor
____
The moment Vince parked and the roar of the engine stopped, I swear I could hear both of our hearts struggling to not beat out of rib cages. Vince was in his fanciest suit, I was in my ritziest evening dress. He got out and in a respectable manner opened the door and offered his hand to me.
On the gate there were two mean-looking goons, keeping the mayor’s palace safe. We said who we were and easier than I imagined, we were allowed the entrance to the grand house that scared me but pulled me in just as much
When we stepped foot in the immense living room, the main door was closed behind us. The noise it made when it shut echoed throughout the room, as if it reminded us that we were outsiders, peasants and minuscule in the presence of the king, the mayor, who we could see ahead of us in the dining room. The table was set and the gigantic chandelier fell right above it like the sun of his world
-Welcome, Vince... Miss Granger. Sit down-He motioned to two chairs in front of his.
Our slow and steady steps took us to the dinner. Each step made my heart beat faster. Me and Vince hadn’t said anything since we stepped foot in the house, but we must’ve been making a pretty good job out of remaining stone-faced, because the mayor kept smiling unknowing of our plans to betray him in his own house. Vince had made a good job of saving his life. He admired him and now, he trusted him
We ended up sitting opposite to him, and the silence was almost unbearable. Adler’s eyes watched the both of us for a few seconds before he started talking- Don’t be shy. It doesn’t fit the personality of the Mad Dog or the Ice Box flapper... Oh!- He paused as if he had realized something- Don’t tell me you’re intimidated!- He looked at me- Let bygones be bygones, Miss Granger. I know we haven’t always seen eye to eye, but... We’re all working to our mutual benefit now.
I breathed deeply, calming my nerves- That’s right. What matters for me is that the Ice Box is safe. As long as that’s the case, everything’s the cat’s pajamas
I looked at the food in front of me, inside I wondered if it was poisoned, or if he was the one fooling us. But with Vince not being the sharpest tool in the box, he dug right in, eating everything in front of him. He didn’t die or started getting sick so I safely assumed I could too
Once the anticipation of the dinner ended, the whole event was actually pretty boring with the mayor talking on and on. It reminded of dinners with Momma’s friends on Sundays. Suddenly, I was a little girl again and I couldn’t wait for it all to be over. This time, however, I knew more things were at stake. As we finished dessert a signaled to Vince discreetly with my eyes
-‘Scuse me, Adler. This was all fine and well and I’ll be right back- He started getting up- I need to go to the john. Where is it?
-Closest one is upstairs, first door on the left- He pointed up. He agreed and was on his way to, instead, steal all the documents we needed. The tick of the clock seemed to slow down, as if it was letting me know this was a very important moment, one that I would never forget
-You’re looking lovely tonight, Miss Granger- Adler said. It was his turn to get up, only to walk around the table and occupy Vince’s spot by my side. The gesture made my skin tingle, as if millions of ants crawled on it. I wanted to run, to scream and escape. However, if I could keep the mayor talking it’d be the chance we needed to end him for good
-Thanks, Adler. I see you didn’t give up on your advances towards me. Even though you know I’m a taken woman, engaged in fact.
-Oh, I know that- He touched my hair. Why was I shivering? Was I not able to control my fear? Why did his dark eyes scare me so much? I impulsively backed off, looking into his eyes seemingly brave- But- He continued either way- I know that women like you, Miss Granger, don’t consider themselves a lady, and I’ve no doubt that you’d hate to be treated like a porcelain doll, a gentlewoman- His face approached me- No... No...-He whispered- You’re different, MC. You’re fierce, you’re the leader of a group of gangsters. You got dangerous men tied on a leash.
-The Ice Box is but a small operation, there are much bigger competito-
-You’re right- He interrupted- But none of them faces the odds of society, of judgement and underestimation. No, you are an incredible woman. Any man would be lucky to call you his wife- He grabbed my jaw making me look at him. I was trying my hardest not to show any fear, but it was hard- And one thing you should know about me is that I hate when somebody claims a treasure before I do. Lucky for me, you are not married, just engaged.
-Mayor Adler- I tried to pull his hands away, but he was bigger and stronger- This wasn’t what we agreed on
-Here’s my new proposition!-He sad grabbing my jaw tighter, making me yelp- Together we should have control of the entire Chicago’s underworld. You’ll be first lady, my wife! And I’ll give you the keys to be the most powerful and biggest operation Chicago, no, the United States has ever seen. Imagine how much power you would give me. Imagine it, the First Lady of Chicago. You’d have your own empire!- His other free hand pushed my dress up my thighs, I could see the disgusting lust he had in his eyes
A force came upon me, I didn’t know where I found the strength, but I punched him on his nose, making him back away from me. I got up, pulling my gun off my leg holster and pointing it at him- Don’t you dare touch me again. I’ll never belong to a man like you.
It gave me satisfaction to see his nose bleed. But it died quickly when he laughed- Take her.
Before I realized two big men grabbed me from behind overpowering me. My screams must’ve been loud enough because I could hear steps coming towards us, and soon Vince had his gun to the mayor- Let her go!
-Vince, watch out!- I said as another one of his goons fired a shot, which hit Vince’s side. He groaned and collapsed on the floor.
Everything was slow once again. The red forming on his side, the blood gushing from his wound onto the floor. The sound of his beloved gun pearl crashing against the tiles. The sound of his body hitting the ground. The way all the documents we needed spread from inside his suit all over the floor, painting a white that contrasted the deep red around my friend. My uncle’s adopted son.
-You were planning to deceive me all along!-Adler said in rage as he saw the papers. Betrayal showed in his eyes towards Vince
-Don’t you ever dare to threaten my family again- Vince said in a quiet, hurt voice- Way to get your skull cracked
-You know what I do to those who betray me? I make them suffer- He approached Vince’s body on the floor. I sentence you to death.
-Wait! No! I’ll do it!- I yelled, but it was too late.
The two men holding me started to take me away until the whole scene was out of my vision. All I heard was a single shot
-Vince!- I yelled, to no avail
____
The next thing I remember was being taken down these dark stairs and thrown into some sort of basement. The two goons climbed back up and locked the door.
I took some time to weep. For my friend, for the fact that we failed, and for the reason that I didn’t know what I would do know.
Once I calmed down, I looked around. The basement was old fashioned, mostly grey. It was poorly lit and there was no sign of anywhere sunlight could come in. For a basement it was pretty spacious. It had a bathroom with a shower, two old mattresses on the floor, a bookshelf that was almost empty, some spider webs and a table.
I went up the stairs to try to open the door to find out it was truly locked. I climbed back down, defeated, and positioned myself on one of the mattresses, unsure of what to do next.
-I can’t believe he’s gonna keep me prisoner here...
-You best believe it. He will. And there’s no way out. Now what did little Miss Granger do to put herself into this situation?- A deep familiar female voice echoed throughout the room. From the darkness the once elegant figure emerged. The one who once was the main source of my troubles
-Vera...-I said looking up. She looked nothing like the glory she once was. Her dirty clothes and messy longer hair indicated that she was in there for too long of a time. It didn’t take me long to put two and two together and realize she had been there since she disappeared
-Well, this is a pleasant surprise. And so we reunite- She sat on the other mattress
-So you didn’t shoot the mayor and ran away from Chicago...
She snorted- You believed that story?
I shook my head- No, I just wouldn’t put it past you
-Nice of you to start with the unpleasantness, MC. Will make our time as roommates much more agreeable- She laid down- Now I’d like to get some sleep.
-Vera, how are you okay with this?!-I got up- We have to escape! He can’t do that
-I tried. There’s no way- She replied calmly, too calmly- I don’t care about any of it anymore. Politics, mayor, Chicago. It can all go to hell.
I observed the woman for a few seconds. The woman I knew would never even say “hell” before. I don’t know if I hated her more or was starting to actually like her
-Well, I ain’t staying here- I said going up to the door again.
I pushed my body against it. Pulled it with all my might, tried throwing stuff against it and everything I could. But it was useless. I was tired and I was getting nauseous. Defeated I walked back to where I was
-Finally giving up?-Vera asked
I didn’t bother answering- Just... Exactly how long have you been here?
She thought about it for a second- Must be... A few weeks now- She shrugged- I stopped counting, makes you go insane.
-He’s the only one who’s insane- I replied- I ain’t staying here!- I repeated myself, trying to give my confidence a boost. I tried to get up again but felt a pain. My hand instinctively went to my stomach, caressing it
She eyed me curiously. Then with amusement, which quickly turned into surprise-MC, you’re pregnant.
-Thanks for letting me know.-I responded sarcastically. Man, I was spending too much time with Neil.
Oh, man, Neil... I rubbed my eyes thinking about how much he must be going bonkers right now. Guilt overcame my body. He knew being the head of a gang meant I was always putting myself in danger. However, he didn’t sign up to be told he was going to be a father, and then have the gal completely disappear and have herself kidnapped. I was being so selfish. Especially after everything Neil had been through I just had to know something
-Is Adler gonna bump us off?
Vera stared at me- No... No- She shook her head- Adler only kills when he’s being merciful. Those he really hates, people like us, he likes to see them suffer.
-Sounds like the cat’s pajamas- I said unenthusiastically
-Don’t let him know you’re pregnant, MC. Don’t let him know- She said before turning away, falling asleep rather quickly for someone who was in her position.
I made a promise to come back home. To be safe. How many times had I said “I’ll be fine”.
Sometimes you just have to realize how young and stupid you really are.

Ok so its been 24 hours since I saw the movie and I wanted to write down my thoughts, most of it is for me so I can go back and read how I felt about it years from now, its going to be very long and wordy but im just writing as the thoughts come and now worrying about grammar or anything, that includes timeline, so my thoughts may come to me out of order . I’m going to put it all under read more so i dont spoil it for any of you lovely people
So I got to the theater like 40 minutes early because I just couldnt contain myself and I wanted to get my perfect seat. Wore my new HTTYD shirt and brought my toothless plushie from build a bear (another little girl had the same idea she was so cute)
but now onto the movie
they threw me for a loop I was totally expecting a “this is berk’” speech as the very opening, not the raid, but honestly this movie is about change so I liked the change. But I still got my fix, because as they flew back to Berk my only thought was “this is berk”, AND THEN HE SAID THE THING YES.
Loved the scene in the great forge, it just really showed how big Berk is and how many vikings there are, and seeing them all happy and enjoying a meal together just warmed my heart, plus Gobber teasing Astrid and Hiccup about marriage and Valka beating Spitelout at arm wrestling haha.
Tuffnut was comedic gold, talking about his “beard” and giving hiccup bro pep talks. And when he said the earth was round? and the stars? I almost died laughing. 
Grimmel  being a complete jerk and drugging those poor dragons with their own venom.
Fetch with Hiccup’s leg?? and him dropping it in Astrid’s lap and then being over protective of the leg when Stormfly came near it? Then Hiccup tickling Astrid, what did we do to deserve such a cute Hiccstrid scene?
Toothless meeting the light fury was even better than I thought, he was such a dork and had no idea what to do, then looking to Hiccup for advice about how to flirt oh gosh silly boy.
Im calling Hiccup out on his saying Astrid isnt a romantic, I mean Hiccup is totally the hopeless romantic, but Astrid in my mind is totally a secret romantic, at least when it comes to her own relationship.
Also Toothless practicing his mating dancing by watching his shadow and studying the naddars as they danced was so adorable.
Ok ngl I actually thought Grimmel had shot Toothless in the house, and I was so happy to see that is was part of their plan and that he had back up (sorry Fishlegs I love you and you took one for the team so good on you!). Why I was surprised by this idk, I know these characters enough to know that they would pull something like that. BUT HICCUP TELLING GRIMMEL OFF AND CALLING HE OUT FOR SITTING IN STOICKS CHAIR, YES BOY. That just made the feeling of Berk being attacked and flames burning everywhere hurt so much more.
The meeting with all of Berk? Just wow, I mean first off I love that Hiccup had his whole gang up there with him, just goes to show that he really trusts them and values them as being part of the team. Astrid sticking up for my boy and Tuff just going “IM WITH HIM WHO ELSE” A plus team work, I loved the support. Not to mention the fact that Hiccup was able to convince them all to pack up what little they could carry and leave. I mean we know from the first movie that vikings are stubborn, but they are also capable of change. The fact that they left their home of 7 generations and probably left some import things they couldnt carry with them was such an amazing gesture. And Berk really is where ever the vikings are, it is not just a single island. It really hurt to see them leave the island, the place where it all started, but the fact that they all stuck together really shows how strong of a bond they have as a people. 
Light fury knocking Hiccup off Toothless, such a sassy girl I love her. I mean come on Toothless was obviously gunna save him. Also the sheeps wanting to be dragons is something I never new I needed, especially after seeing how afraid of dragons they used to be (I mean the dragons did hunt them, but im all here for them cosplaying as their favorite dragons) 
I JUST REMEMBERED I NEVER TALKED ABOUT FLASHBACKS SO LETS DO THAT NOW. First of little toddler Hiccup??? THE FRICKIN CUTEST THING EVER OK. I know there was a line in the trailer that wasnt in the movie the one where Stoick says something like “I believe its your destiny to find the hidden world so dragons and vikings no longer need to fight” but I wasnt sad that they didnt keep this line. I think it makes more sense to have what they did, Stoick talking about finding the hidden world so they could protect Berk from it. I mean this took place when they were still fighting dragons, so yea the line about destiny could mean he thinks Hiccup would destroy the hidden world, but the tone of the scene was so calm and relaxing that to me it gave off the vibe that Stock was implying that Hiccup would unite their worlds, which doenst make sense since again they were still at war with the dragons at this point. So I liked what they had in the movie, I think what they kept fit the tone and it still showed how Berk was at war with the dragons.
NEXT FLASHBACK. Little Hiccup just sneaking down the stairs and then his little face like “oh shit” when he saw his dad was up and trying to sneak back up. The way he said he wanted water, I JUST IT WAS SO CUTE, whoever voiced tiny hiccup good job because omg it was so cute. How happy he was to go over to his dad and sit on his lap.  When he asked Stoick if he would get them a new mom, my heart just broke I mean Hiccup was so young that he didn’t fully grasp the situation, and I mean before Hiccup got caught sneaking downstairs we saw Stoick crying. That was so important to me I mean Stoick the Vast, he is massive, and remember the first movie the fact about him ripping a dragons head off as a baby? Yea this character who basically screams masculinity has yet another vulnerable scene, showing yet again that crying is ok (I mean back in the first movie when he told Hiccup he wasnt his son, and when he met Valka again?? yes please keeping showing people that being masculine doenst mean you cant cry!). Stoick teaching Hiccup about love, yes dad points for you, I adore the scenes like these, that show how much Stock loves his family, he would be so proud of Hiccup and who he has become. OH YEA SIDE NOTE HOW I FORGET HICCUPS STUFFED DRAGON? THROWBACK TO THE TV SERIES THANK YOU.
New Berk, cuz thats the best I got to call it right now, love how everyone basically immediately goes to claiming their areas ahha.
Ok Snotlout my boy did you really just say “who died and made yout Chief” because too soon, I still love you
Low key thought they were gunna make Snotlout and Eret a thing, despite the weird flirting Snotlout had with Valka. I mean he was trying to be taller than Eret, and Eret was like hah no, yall id ship it ngl eret and snotlout 
Toothless meeting up with the light fury again, but this time trusting his instincts is another reminder that toothless is in fact an animal, a very intelligent animal, but an animal who has instincts and a desire to be with his own kind, I mean can you blame him? Its been at least 6 years since hes seen another dragon that was like him, maybe even longer depending on how long he was alone before he met hiccup. 
The throw back to the forbidden friendship scene? With toothless drawing in the sand, and oh God I never thought I would get so emotional about sand but dang that sand animation just was so realistic that I wanted to touch it. Hiccup being like “wow now you can draw”, Toothless growling at the light fury like he did to Hiccup back in the first for stepping on his art, come on guys Toothless worked hard on his art! The light fury flying away but toothless not being able to follow her, another throwback to when he couldnt fly with the dragons during the snoggletog special.
Hiccup making toothless a tail to fly alone, and Im glad they added the part when Astrid said they tried it before, again throwback to snoggletog, and that he didnt want the tail, and Hiccup clarifying that it was because he had no need to fly alone before. Now my only worry here is that the casual fan will just think that the exchange is a copout, I mean unless you remember the special you wouldnt know that they tired making him a tail fin and he didnt want it, so to the casual fan it might seem like they only added the comment to answer the question “If hiccup could make a tail fin why did he never do it before?”. Seeing the special where toothless destroys the tail really adds a layer of depth to the scene, because those of us who saw it remember that it was a statement that even though Hiccup had the ability to create a tail so toothless could fly alone, toothless wanted to fly with his best friend and didnt care for the tail. 
now the actual scene with toothless flying alone finding the light fury, first off it was so cute how he showed her his new tail! He was so proud of it, and no doubt proud of his best friend for making it. The scene itself though reminded me so much of the romantic flight, the way they flew together above the clouds and how it gave a sense of flight because we couldnt see the ground, ugg it was so beautiful. I was honestly blown away by the animation, the clouds and the color, they were all so beautiful. Toothless and the light fury flying together and really bonding, similar to Astrid and Hiccup on their first flight together, ugg all the throwbacks to the first movie really killed me. Also Toothless trying to copy the light fury and how she goes invisible was so cute, he was like “ah yes I got this, wait no shit again, no shit again again!” then he basically summons thors power of lighting and finds his new power, so proud of my baby. 
Now I fully believe that Toothless was going to go back to Hiccup after he spent time with the light fury in the hidden world, no way my boy would leave my other boy without a goodbye. But the other started to freak Hiccup out, I mean Hiccup knew his best friend would come back, but the others made him doubt it and seeing him freak out was heart breaking.
Astrid being like boy hop on we gonna get yo dragon, yes girl. Honestly them going into the hidden world on Stormfly? I mean need i say anything about the animation in this scene? The visuals were just breath taking, I cannot put it into words. Tootheless being the alpha is always a win, also Astrid calling him a king and Hiccup realizing that this beautiful place of dragons, is not place for humans, because Valka said it best, greedy humans ruin everything.
Hiccup and Astrid getting caught by a dragon and then going on a fun slide ride, and of course toothless comes through as the alpha to protect his humans, ALSO STORMFLY DONT THINK I FORGOT ABOUT HER, CUZ YES. I mean just like toothless Stormyfly will protect her human best friend, and I love her. 
How did I forget the next raid scene? I mean dang again the visuals and the lighting were just so spot on. Them all getting trapped? Valka being a badass and working with Cloudjumper to save them? Hiccup jumping and just escaping the clutches of Grimmels dragon? RUFFNUT
Ruffnut my girl dont think I forgot about you, I just I dont even know what to do with you. She was amazing, I mean shes just does not care, not scared that shes a prisoner, she fricking just talks about how ‘hot’ she is and just other random stuff about her life, like girl give me that confidence. But when she talked about the island i was like girl no dont do that, but her flying back and saying she doenst look back in response to being asked about being followed was pretty darn funny.
Bro the scene of the light fury and toothless getting captured? Toothless protecting her and telling the other dragons to stand down, at least until they can escape. Just heart breaking, help is so close, but I guess thats the downside of being the alpha, having that power can be used against you.
Astrid my girl, pep talking my boy Hiccup JUST LIKE THE FIRST MOVIE. And yes parallels again, just like in the first one Astrid said things to hiccup, she was very honest with him pointing out the things that had done wrong, the first pointing out how messy the situation got because of the lies, and in this movie pointing out how he constantly doubts himself, and in both Hiccup has a sassy comment regarding her pep talks, but Astrid always follows up with the good, like how he was the first viking to ride a dragon or how he was always brave, even without toothless, showing how she would always be by his side to support him and help him, especially when hes about to do something stupid. I just ugg they are couple goals, they dont even need to say I love you because they SHOW IT in their actions, in their support for eachother, their cute banters, and I am here for it. ALSO I MEAN HE KISSED HER HAIR EARLY AND THEN HER FOREHEAD THOSE ARE SO CUTE TO ME AND JUST SO NATURAL FOR THEM AHHH. Also “so what are you gunna do about it” “probably something stupid” YES YES YES I AM HERE FOR THAT SHIT
Everyone jumping off the island so they can ‘fly’ on their own, just first off so visually amazing, and second off so symbolic to me of each of them spreading their own wings and growing up into amazing people. 
Fishlegs and his baby dragon, I mean come on lets be real that shit is adorable, and baby dragon had his big dragon (does that dragon have a class name? because I dont remember it) friend and Fishlegs be like dont mess with baby dragon. 
Yooo I knew it, from the trailer I was like “Tuffnut is probs pissed that this dude cut off his hair beard” and boom it happned, but rip hair beard (until the end of the movie that is when it comes back)
Yall that unspoken scene where Hiccup and Astrid are just frickin shit up WHILE THEY JUST LOOK AT EACHOTHER, I MEAN HICCUP JUST CASUALLY THROWS SHIT TO START A FIRE AND THE ENTIRE TIME THEY ARE STARING AT EACHOTHER HAVE A CONVERSATION COMPLETELY WITH THEIR EYES LIKE THAT IS SOME NEXT LEVEL SHIT AND COUPLE GOALS.
I got such satisfaction out of Toothless destroying grimmels arrow shoter thing and watching as Grimmel started to get afraid, I mean this dude was so confident in his abilites, and up until now he has had the upper hand, but then you can see the “oh shit moment” as he realizes he is starting to lose and heck yea im here for it. Speaking of oh shit moments, when hiccup was riding toothless and they wer getting attacked? and then toothless is like “I SUMMON YOU THOR AND YOUR LIGHTING” and hiccup was like WTH?!!??!?!?
Ok yall that scene when toothless got shot, and hiccup is hanging from the light fury with grimmel on his leg? I mean Grimmel really thought that he had won, he underestimated the love Hiccup has for Toothless, and the moment that Hiccup told the light fury to save Toothless and he let go? the hesitation she had trying to pick who to save? her new mate, or his best friend that she now seems to understand has a great important meaning to toothless? The image of Hiccup falling, and the camera angle? I mean seeing him fall from above, seeing it in his face that he was content, content knowing that his best friend would be alive and safe and that Grimmel would no longer be able to hurt the dragons or his people? Such a self sacrifice, a true Chief just like his father. 
Then the light fury to the rescue! Hiccup being like LOL BYE GRIMMLE YOU DEAD. Also reminded me of when he started to ride toothless back in the first movie and they fell and hiccup got back on his back and in control just in time, because dang she saved him his butt just before he hit the water. But seriously I loved this scene, she went back for hiccup, she saw the interactions Toothless had with him, how Toothless protected him and Astrid in the hidden world, how Toothless CHOSE HICCUP when he saw him in danger in the hidden world, she came to realize that this boy is important to Toothless, and she saw that Hiccup was willing to die for Toothless, and she went back and saved him, and God I got emotional.
Also Hiccup leaning on Astrid because he has lost his prostectic leg, yessss im here for it
NOW TO THE REAL TEAR JERKER I mean gosh you could just see the realization again in Hiccup that the dragons didnt belong with them on Berk, that even though they love the dragons and the dragons love them, even though they have worked together for years and they want to live together in peace they just cant do it safely.There are too many people out in the world who would attack berk, and we have seen that both in the movies and the show, and that puts both the people and the dragons at risk. 
It was safest for everyone if the dragons went to the hidden world, where no one could find them, well expect Hiccup and Astrid who have been there once. I just cant though, that scene was just so amazing and heart crushing. I mean you can see it that Toothless doesnt want to leave his best friend, and Hiccup doenst want him to leave, but he reassures him that its ok that its best for everyone and that its time to say good bye for now, not forever though. Then oh God how Astrid follows him, because she knows hes right too, she knows that they can no longer live with their dragons safely, and she takes off Stormflys saddle and says good bye to her best friend. THEN VALKA who has lived with the dragons for 20 years, she knows too and she doenst hesitate to let Cloudjumper go free, and it made so much sense to me that she was so willing to do so even after being together for 20 years, she has protected them for 20 years so there is no doubt in my mind that Valka would do this without a second though if it meant that was the best thing for her friend. THEN OMG EVERYONE ELSE FOLLOWS THAT JUST HURT SO MUCH. I mean ever single Berkian seens what Hiccup did, and everyone knows they have a special bond, I mean they all have a special bond with their dragons, but Hiccup and Toothless are different, they were the only pair that we know of that needed each other to fly, I mean sure the other vikings needed their dragons to fly but their dragons didnt need them to fly, toothless relied on hiccup to control his tail and that bond is so special. Anyway, I just thought that all the others saw Hiccup doing this, and hes their Chief the man who started the whole riding dragons for them, so I have no doubt in my mind that they would follow his lead, and again to me they see Hiccup and Toothless doing this letting go, so they must think “If these two can do it so can I”. I just really think it shows how much the vikings truly care for their dragon friends, when you love someone you want the best for them, you want them to be happy, even if that means you need to say goodbye. And thats what happened here the vikings loved their dragons so much that they were willing to say goodbye to their friends if it meant that they would be save, and the same goes in the other direction, the dragons are not dumb and I believe they knew that leaving is what was best too, that leaving meant that their viking friends would be safer. The love they all have for each other is so amazing. I only wish that the goodbye was long, I am so bad at goodbyes and omg I just wish they had a longer time to say goodbye, not only to their dragons but to the others as well, I mean toothless saying goodbye to Astrid and Stormfly too Hiccup? uG I SUCK AT GOOD BYWS OK I JUST WANT EVERYONE TO BE ABLE TO SAY GOOD BYE TO ALL THE DRAGONS.
But man i said to myself ‘you can do it dont cry’ didnt work, I sobbed, legit sobbed, and it wasnt my normal movie cry were its just tears, it was the kind where you can feel the pain in your chest from your heart beating to hard, from trying to hold back the chocked sobs so no one else would  get annoyed, although lets be real they are did the same thing so we all cried.  Seeing them all fly off, AND THE REVERSE HAND TOUCH I CANNOT, THAT REALLY HURT I JUST COULDNT TAKE IT THE PARALLELS REALLY KILLED ME THE ENTIR MOVIE. Then Toothlesses look back at Hiccup, and then the long shot and seeing the massive wave of dragons, and then seening toothless following from the back as he is the last to leave, the vikings looking on with sadness and fondness for their dragons, really did come for my heart.
NOW ONTO HAPPY TIMES. the Wedding, oh my god, how lucky can a girl be? I got to see the mother of all my OTPs get married, and dang they were beautiful, and they looked so happy, it just warmed my heart to know that these two dorks who truly have a special relationship finally got married. Then Gobber called them Chief and Chiefstriss and wow really hit me hard that these two were going to lead Berk together, because they are always there to support each other. THEN that kiss so cute, and how Hiccup goes to gently cup her face with his hands, just wow my otp is the best.
Then we again have love master Tuffnut who will take Snotlout as his new student, and FISHLEGS HAS A LITTLE BABY GRUNKLE STUFFED ANIMAL IN HIS BAG. aND RUFF being like “you win i love sensitive guys” Then we have Hiccup and Astrid looking out to the sea as their friends and family come together with them, and Astrid lays her head on his shoulder so great.
Now dang my boy HICCUP WITH A BEARD??? BEARDCUP IS REAL, and he is wearing his fur cap, and Astrid looking like a frickin QUEEN, and AGAIN HOW LUCKY CAN A GIRL BE I SEE A WEDDING AND I GET CHILDREN????? MY OTP HAS TWO CHILDREN???? AND THEY ARE GORGEOUS.
buT DANG when they saw Toothless through the fog and then the light fury and then the little baby heads pop up, and you can see how happy Hiccup is. But Toothless doenst immediatly recognize him, which makes sense because I mean 10 year for humans can change the looks drastically, and hiccup has a beard now so he doenst look like what toothless remembered, plus hes the alpha and must protect his family. Astrid protecting her children like a frickin badass mom, and Zephry hidding behind her mom and Nuffink going into her chest? Ug love it, they trust their mom to protec them, and I love this to because it really shows that they are children, I mean I have no doubt that Astrid and Hiccup are going to raise them to be brave, I mean its Hiccup and Astrid, but they are still children and well they have grown in a world without dragons, different than their parents, we know at that age Astrid was fearless, I mean she wanted to fight a flightmare, but now the world has changed and they arent at war and they can raise their kids as kids, and I love that they showed that fear in the children it just gave a sense of realism to me. 
Then HIccup DID THE THING with the hand and Toothless finally was like “WAIT THIS IS MY HUMAN” and his eyes went big and omg how he attacked him with kisses and licks. Then Astrids laugh to see them reunite, and them urging their kids that it was ok, and remember before when I said they would raise brave kids? Well this little cuties were afraid, but they still listened and trusted their parents, and omg Zephry was so stiff from fear and her face, and Nuffink was hiding his face, but Hiccup came and showed them how to approach Toothless, and wow here we go again with the hand touch and HIccup telling them to let him come to them, and Toothless did the thing AND OMG THEIR REACTION WAS SO CUTE. The way Zephry cocked her head and smiled, and how Nuffink dropped his hand from his face and his mouth widened in awe of his dragon. 
THEN I GET TO SEE HICCUP WITH HIS SON RIDING TOOHTLESS? AND HIS SOON IS JUST MAKING THE CUTEST LITTLE WAVING MOTIONS WITH HIS HANDS. And hiccup throwing his kid in the air as he giggles in delight, and I swear I heard him say “Dada” and it killed me. Then Astrid being Astrid flys right passed them ON STORMFLY, like thank you for not forgetting about my girl, because she loves Stormfly and Stormfly loves her and seeing Astrid ride her with her daughter just made the scene even better. They could have easily forgotten about my girl, but they didnt, they didnt do her dirty, I may not have gotten to see the moment when she and Stormfly met again, BUT I SAW THEY RIDING TOGETHER AND THATS GOOD ENOUGH FOR ME.
Oh yea bonus points for seeing the light fury and the babies flying with them. Then Hiccup just flys upside down dropping Nuffink on Astrids head, and ug the way he just casually clings to his mother, then I was like wow I hope Zephry gets to ride Toothless with he father, AND THEN HE PULLED UP NEXT TO THEM AND HELD OUT HIS HAND TO DO JUST THAT, dreamworks you really came through for me, thank you so much for allowing Dead and all the other hard workers of this franchise make this amazing world for us. It tore my heart apart, but I loved every second of it, and I have no regrets, it was honestly a great ending,no matter how badly it hurt and how badly I wanted them to live together forever, it was just the perfect ending with a great lesson about letting go and moving on, becoming your own person, and being happy with the memories you had, because being able to say you loved something or someone and letting them go is better than never loving them at all, thats what happend to the vikings and dragons, and thats what happened to me personally at the end of it all. I cant wait to relive the magic and watch all the movies again. 
oh how could I forget? The end credits, you thought the pain ended with the end of the movie nope the credits are going to give you every major scene from each movie, reminding us where we started and where we have come to, and that was just the cherry on top of it all. 
Also side note a girl sat behind me and she goes “is that a toothless plushie?” and yes it was so she asked to see it so i handed him to her and we started talking about the movie, she was able to see it during an early release boo i had work. Anyway she asks me how old i was when the first came out, and I said 16, she seemed shook and i asked her the same, she said she was 5, so if math does me right she would be about 14/15. I was older than she is currently is when the first movie came out, thats wild. Then i laughed off the age difference saying “you would never know ill be 25 in a week”, and her (i assume) mom said I looked young haha. But because of the age difference I gave her some good life advice, I told her not to care about what others think of you, Im almost 25 crying over a dragon movie that means the world to me as i sit with my dragon plushie, and her mom just agreed with me and told her to listen to me because I knew what I was saying haha. Shout out to this girl too because shes the one who told me that Hiccup and Astrids’s kids had cannon names, I had been avoiding everything I could about this movie so I was glad to be up to date on that.
Wow this took me like 2 hours to write i think? I mean yea it was mostly for me to read later in life so I can remember this day, all the photos i took before hand, and all the excitement I had, wow Hi future me! Sorry about all the grammar mistakes but Im just typing as the thoughts come, hope I didnt break your heart again as you read all this. Until next time

OMG I LOVE YOU ALL! I CANT BELIEVE I NOW HAVE 500 FOLLOWERS, AND TO THANK YOU HERES MY LONGEST ONESHOT YET!
Hey I'm not sure if you are taking requests right now. But I have been watching fionns show, Him and been getting all types of weird feels from it 😂.but I was wondering if you could do one where y/n and fionn are step siblings and one day him and y/n are alone and he decides to kiss her. And it gets really heated and there is a lot of smut whilst making sure they don't get caught by anyone.SMUT NSFW word count 8039  •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
Someone like you
Tumblr media
“I think this will be good for you honey, the move and all”.
You sat silent in the passenger seat as you stared out the window, watching the scenery as you passed by. It was a gloomy day, rainy and cold out, but that definitely wasn't going to stop you from moving in with your father, your birth father.
Ever since your parents divorce you had been living with your mom, you were always really close and got along exceptionally well, that was until Brad came into the picture. Your parents divorced five years ago, your dad started dating Alyssa three years ago, and married her last year.Your mom on the other hand didn't take the divorce well, and any guy that showed the slightest interest in her she was “in love” with. She met Brad two years ago, he just proposed and they're  marrying in a week. He never cared too much for you, just wanted your mother all to himself, someone to wait on him hand and foot, but he was wealthy so she couldn't really complain.
“You mean you think it will be better for you and that douch bag if I'm out of the house”.
“Y/N, I told you to stop calling him that, I really like him and he likes me”. You turn to look at her, feeling the anger overcome you from her words.
“Yea he supposedly cares about you and you care about him but not your own child, all you really want is me out of the way, cause it's what he wants”. You know your whole face is now fully red. How can a mother pick a man over her child?  It didn't matter now, you'd be at your fathers in five minutes, and he did love you, even Alyssa loved you. You quite liked Alyssa, she always treated you as one of her own, kinda makes you regret picking your mother over your father, but she was alone and you felt that she needed you.
“It doesn't matter how you feel about Brad now anyway, your father can deal with you, and lord help you if you speak about Alyssa that way”.
“I wouldn't speak about Alyssa that way, cause she's more of a mother than you are anyway”.
You can see your fathers house now as you pull up the drive, unbuckling your seatbelt and opening the door before the car is even fully stopped. Hopping out of the car, you open the back door to get your bags, not bothering to speak to your mom, you didn't have anything left to say to her.
“Y/N, darling I've missed you. How are you love?” Your dad was now out of the house ready to help you with your bags. He looked good, healthy, happy.
“Hey dad, I'm good, how are you?” Your dad took your bags from you as you both entered the house. You had forgotten how much you loved this place, although you hadn’t gotten much time to spend here, only holidays.
“I'm better now that you're here. Want to see your room?” You nod and smile at your father as you both head upstairs, you were glad your room was upstairs away from everyone else so you could have some privacy. No one would yell at you for being up past a certain time, or for accidentally hearing what was happening in the next room, you were finally free.
“Well, here it is love”. The room was spacious, a huge bed sat in the corner with more pillows and blankets than you could ask for, and you couldn't wait to snuggle up under the fluffy duvet that was draped over it.
“Umm, I hope you like it, Fionn helped paint it and put the bed together, a-and you have a bathroom right out there”.
“Dad, I love it, thank you”. You quickly embraced him in a hug, just happy to be with him, happy to feel safe and wanted. “Missed you dad”. “Missed you too darling”.
“Alright, well I'll leave you to unpack and settle in, Alyssa should be home in an hour. Oh and if you need anything, don't hesitate to ask, this is your home now, want you to feel like it”.
You couldn't believe how quickly your mood had changed within 15 minutes just from being with your father. He was always understanding and caring, you knew this was the best choice. “Thank you, oh and dad, who's Fionn?” He chuckled at the question, finding it funny how you could forget about your step brother. “Fionn, your step brother… Alyssa's son you goof”. You had completely forgotten that Alyssa had a son, of course you'd only met him a handful of times. “Right…right, I don't know how I forgot”. “It's ok, he's right down the hall if you need him, and dinners at seven”. You nodded as your father exited the room, leaving you to have some privacy and settle in before dinner.
 You decide that you should probably freshen up, grabbing a towel, and your toiletries from your bag. You lifted the towel up to your nose, inhaling the familiar scent that you've carried through your childhood to now. It was a comforting smell, mainly because your mother had been washing laundry with the same detergent your entire life, and it's the only thing that's stayed consistent. Luckily for you, Alyssa uses the same detergent, so the smell of Hawaiian breeze can continue to comfort you.
After entering the bathroom and striping from your clothes, you jump in the shower, the hot water hitting your muscles and immediately relaxing you. All the stress was now gone from your body, and you felt much better as you grabbed your towel from the drying rack and wrapped it around your body.“Crap! How did I forget to grab clothes?”
You were wet and cold from the air hitting your damp body. How could you forget to grab clothes, and you had already thrown your other clothes in the hamper, no way you were putting those back on. It's not like anyone's up here, you could just run from the bathroom to your room really quick and no one would notice. Grabbing the toiletry bag and clutching onto your towel you quickly walk out of the bathroom, almost making it to your room before you hear a deep voice, making you freeze in the middle of the hallway.
“Ummm… who are you, and why were you in my bathroom?” Please don't be who I think it is, please please please! You chanted in your head repeatedly before turning around to face him. “Hi” you said letting one hand free from your towel to send him a small wave. “I'm Y/N…your step sister”.
You saw realization take over his features as he stood there silent. You had just seen him eight months ago, but he was no longer the lanky kid you met at your fathers wedding, he had filled out. You couldn’t help but to notice how thick his neck was now and how perfectly his Adam's apple complimented it. His shoulders were broader, jawline more defined, and he was taller, you wouldn't even recognize him if your father hadn't reminded you of him earlier.
“Oh, right… right I forgot. Do you usually walk around in only a towel, cause most of us in this house wear clothes”. Seriously? He just met you… well not just but he didn't even know you and he was already being sarcastic. “No, I forgot to grab clothes before my shower”. Fionn just nodded his head in acknowledgment to your response, showing that he didn't really care. “Are you always such a smartass?” The boy laughed dryly at you're question, burying his hand in the pockets of his hoodie. “Dinners at seven, mum doesn't like it when people are late”.
And with that he went into his room. Great, he made an amazing first impression, he was going to be fun to share the upstairs living space with.
  After you shut your door, you took a big breath and checked the time, it was now 6:30 PM, dinner was in half a hour. You grabbed some clothes and quickly put them on, checking your hair in your mirror and touching up your makeup before heading downstairs. You could hear someone rummaging around in the kitchen, it wasn't your father cause he went to pick up his and Alyssa's son from your grandparents. Making your way down the rest of the stairs you pray it isn't Fionn, but you hadn't heard him come out of his room since your encounter.
“Y/N, love how are you?” It was Alyssa, she embraced you in one of her warm hugs while she told you how good it was to see you. “It's good to see you too”. She stood back, a smile on her face while she admired you. “Well dear, dinners not quite ready yet, but it will be soon”. “Do you need any help?  I'll do whatever you need”. Alyssa went back to tossing the salad she was preparing, while checking on the chicken she had cooking. “You're a guest Y/N, I can't have you cooking”. “Well technically I live here now, so I'd like to do my part”. Alyssa took a minute to contemplate whether she was going to let you help or not. “Alright, you can make the dressing, I haven't gotten to that yet”. You give her a smile, heading over to the cabinets to get a mixing bowl, then you start getting together all of the ingredients you needed. 
You heard the front door unlock and open, your dad walked in with the baby shutting the door behind him before entering the kitchen.  
“Hello girls, how's everything going?” You both tell him that dinner will be ready soon, him giving Alyssa a quick kiss before sitting the baby in his chair and heading to his room to freshen up. “So Y/N, I hope Fionn was polite and all…that is if you've seen him”. You went back to the moment the two of you ha run into each other earlier, thinking that no he was indeed not polite at all.
“Umm, well we just kinda passed each other in the hall… said hey, that was about it”.Alyssa was setting the table now and fixing the plates for everyone.
“Well, you'll get comfortable around each other im sure. He knows dinner is at seven, but would you mind going upstairs and getting him? He tends to be forgetful”.
“Sure”. You head upstairs, not looking forward to getting your step brother so he would be on time to dinner. Knocking on the door you hope he has found his manners since your last encounter.
“Fionn, Alyssa sent me to get you, she wanted me to remind you dinner is at seven”. You can hear the boy getting up from his bed, opening the door he just looks at you.
“Uhh, yea I know, dinners always at seven”. He wasn't being rude now, just seemed tired. He walked past you and headed down the stairs with you following behind. Everyone was already sat at the table when you made it downstairs, you and Fionn taking your seats across from each other where the food is already set.
“So, how was everyone's day?”your father asked as he took a bite of the chicken. “Work was good nothing new really happened today. Fionn what about you?” Alyssa said as she fed the baby. “Umm, no, schools school. This salad is amazing by the way, like the dressings different or something”. You just continued to eat silently while Fionn complimented your dressing, cutting up pieces of chicken and popping them in your mouth. “Well Y/N made it so tell her”.
You looked up, your eyes meeting his, you couldn't help but to think about how pretty they were with the most perfect eyelashes framing them. “I like it, s’good”. He said with a small smile on his lips. Wow, maybe he was just uncomfortable earlier, you were wet and in just a towel after all, and you would have probably not been too polite if a stranger was in your home naked walking the halls. “Thanks”. “How are you moving in and all Y/N?”
You felt happy and safe here, it was much better than being at your mothers where you knew you weren't even wanted, but you weren't going to tell your father that in front of Alyssa and Fionn. “It's great dad, I'm gonna be really happy here”. The rest of dinner you and Fionn were silent, just sharing little glances here and there as Alyssa and your father chatted. // You were now upstairs in your room, getting settled in and deciding what to wear to school tomorrow, it was about 11:30 and you really needed to get to bed, but you just were to antsy from the day. Looking at your window you see a cloud of smoke pass by, walking over you unlock it and stick your head out. “What are you doing out here?” Fionn was sat on the ledge that was below yours and his window, it was more of a second roof really.
“They don't know I smoke, well I think they do but I've never told them and they haven't caught me”.  Fionn said as he took another drag of the cigarette.
“Oh, so this is like your secret hiding spot?” He nodded his bed as he blew the smoke out of his mouth, the white cloud leaving his delicate lips and flying into the night sky.
“Come sit”. He patted the spot next to him in an attempt to coax you out onto the roof.
You obliged, stepping out into the roof and taking the spot next to him, Fionn offering you a cigarette and you declining. “How's school, I only ask cause I'll be starting tomorrow, I'm a little nervous”.
“It's like I said earlier? Schools school. Nervous?” Fionn looked at you, eyebrows furrowed like it was ridiculous for you to be nervous.
“Yea… I mean it's a new school and I don't know anybod-” “You know me”. He said taking another drag of his cigarette, being sure to blow the smoke away from you.“Yea, but you don't want your step sister hanging around all day. I mean-”
“Of course I do. I mean…I would like to show you around, you know…until you're comfortable”.
You could see a blush creeping up Fionns neck and face, did he actually like you?  Of course not, it's probably just because it's freezing out here. “Umm… do you want some hot chocolate? I was thinking about making some before bed.”  
You saw a smile appear on his face, he really was beautiful. Wait what were you thinking, stop it Y\N he's your step brother. Yea but you aren't related says the stupid little voice in the back of your head taunting you.
“Well if you can make hot chocolate as good as dressing then yes”. You smiled at him as the both of you stood up and headed back into the house, Fionn shutting the window behind himself as you both snuck downstairs quietly to not wake your parents.
“Hey can you grab the cocoa out of the cabinet, I can't reach it”. Fionn walked over to the cabinet, pulling out the cocoa and handing it to you. Taking a seat on the counter, Fionn watched as you mixed together all of the ingredients.
“Here you go”. You said as you handed Fionn his cup watching him taste the sweet, thick, chocolate mixture.
“Fucking amazing”. He said as he pulled the cup away from his mouth, a little drop of the drink sat at the edge of his mouth, you swiped it up with your thumb placing it in your mouth and sucking the sweetness off. You could see Fionn gulp as you made perfect eye contact with him, he took both of your cups and set them on the counter, not being mindful of the noise. He jumped down from the counter making van more noise.
“Hey what are you doing, you're gonna wake everyone?” “Sorry, just thought you may wanna sit up here”. He said as he motioned to the counter. You shrugged as you walked towards the counter,  jumping up and resting there, you now being level with Fionn.
“Aren't you going to come up here?” Fionn faced you, placing his hands on either side of your legs.
“No. I wanted to be even height with you”. You took another sip of your drink while Fionn walked towards the liquor cabinet, pulling out a half drunken bottle of whiskey. “What are you doing?”
“Adding a little excitement to your amazing creation”. Fionn said as he poured a bit of the bronze liquid into his hot chocolate.
“So not that I mind you living here, but why the sudden move?”   He was now positioned exactly as he was earlier, directly in front of you with his hands on either side of your legs.
“It's complicated. My moms marrying some jerk who never wants me around…she sorta picked him over me…said I was the one causing problems and that I was worthless when he would yell at me for absolutely nothing”. “I'm so sorry Y/N”. You played with you pajama shorts, trying to avoid his pitiful gaze that you were sure he was giving you right about now.
“It's ok…I mean it's fine, I'm here now anyway, and it's better”. His interest had gone to your fingers that were still toying with your shorts, he was still listening to you, but just in awe of your movements.
“Yea…these are cute” he said as he lifted the baggy material around your leg. “Little pink flamingos, I like them”. He was only complimenting your pajamas, but you couldn’t help to blush at his kind words, but what if it was only the alcohol talking or he didn’t really mean it he was just messing with you?
“Thanks”. You said shyly taking another sip of your drink.
“You're beautiful Y/N, not worthless… I mean, I know that we don't know each other well, but you are… at least from what I can tell”. Fionn took another huge sip from his mug, trying to avoid eye contact with you.
“Thank you, that means a lot”.
Fionns hand gently met the side of your face, stroking down it before he leaned forward and placed his lips on yours. You could taste the sweetness of the chocolate mixed with the bitterness of the alcohol and his cigarette as his tongue entered your mouth and the kiss began to get more intense. It started off as a slow passionate kiss, you weren't sure what triggered it, maybe it was the alcohol, or maybe the two of you had incredible chemistry.
 You grasp the back of Fionns head as you spread your legs allowing him to stand between them, knocking a spoon to the ground in the process. Fionn broke the kiss to pick it up and make sure your parents hadn't heard.
“Don't worry about it”.
 You said breathlessly as you tugged him back up to your lips by the collar of his shirt, his hands now roaming your bare thighs and sneaking beneath the fabric of your shorts. Fionn elbowed the box of cocoa in the process of trying to feel every inch of your soft skin, knocking it to the ground.
“Kids, are you down here?” You heard your dad yell from inside his room, luckily the living room separated the kitchen from their bedroom, so he couldn't see his step son feeling his daughter up as he kissed her. You both quickly scrambled to pick the items up, moving on opposite sides of the island to not seem suspicious of what you were doing moments ago.
“Hey are y'all still up, on a school night?”
You and Fionn both looked at each other, as if to come up with an excuse as to what you were doing, when really the whole thing was innocent to begin with. “We couldn't sleep dad, sorry. We just came down for some hot chocolate, hope that's ok”.
“Of course it is darling, just don't want you to be too tired in the morning is all”. All three of you stood there awkwardly staring at each other, before Fionn decided he was going to bed upstairs.
“Well goodnight dad”. You said as you quickly followed behind Fionn. As you were about to enter your room Fionn followed you.
“What are you doing?” Fionn looked confused, like you had decided on something downstairs and now you were acting like that conversation had never happened.
“I'm… I'm coming in with you… to finish what we started”.
“No Fionn, we can't…that can never happen again, you're my step brother”.
“Doesn't matter, we aren't related. Didn't you feel what I felt down there? I know you did so there's no denying it”.
“Fionn, like I said…we can't happen, goodnight”. And with that you shut your door in his face, exhausted from the confusion of it all you finally laid down and went to bed, awaiting the new day tomorrow. // It had been three weeks since the last incident, you and Fionn didn't really talk, just the occasional ‘Excuse me’ in the hallway. You had made friends with his friends, you were even getting close to this guy James, you’d been on a couple of dates but nothing serious.
You had tried to talk to Fionn, to make things normal again, but he wasn't having it. He avoided any conversation with you possible, so you tried your hardest to get his attention, walking out of the bathroom in just a towel because you “forgot” your clothes, wearing shirt and tight clothes. Sometimes you would grab one of his shirts out of the wash and sleep in that and only that with just a pair of panties, making sure he saw you in it.
Fionn knew how to retaliate though, he would forget his clothes when showering as well, waking up in the morning and walking out of his room in only a pair of boxers. This has gone on long enough, tonight after dinner you were going to confront him.
“So Y/N, is school still going well for you?” Your eyes were locked on Fionn as you twisted your pasta around the fork, completely not realizing your father had asked you a question. “Y/N…?” “Yea dad?” “I asked you how's school going”. Fionn looked up at you, licking the pasta sauce from his lips before taking a sip of water.
“It's great, I love it here…and all of Fionns friends are so welcoming”. “Maybe a little too welcoming”. You hear Fionn mumble under his breath. “Excuse me?”   Everyone was now looking at Fionn as he swallowed the pasta down.
“S’just, I think you and James are a little too close, I don't like it”. “Well Fionn, are the two of you friends”. Fionn looked at your father annoyed at his interruption. The truth was,James was a great guy and Fionn knew that, but James had you, and he could be with you without any discourse.
“Yea and he's a fine friend, he's just a huge player, I don't want Y/N to get hurt”.
“Well, Y/N maybe you should slow down with this boy, I mean you just met him really”.
You didn't speak for the rest of dinner, just glared at Fionn, you were pissed. How could he have done that, it was selfish and rude. // You were sitting in your room, contemplating whether or not you should go talk to Fionn, you didn't know what his problem was lately but you were going to confront him. You were in one of his flannels that you put on after your shower, your shower where you stepped out with just a towel and ran right into him.
 You knocked on his door, no one answered so you walked in. There he was stomach down on the mattress grinding himself into it, his eyes were squinted as he bit his bottom lip, working his hips into the mattress. You gasped as you accidentally elbowed the door, Fionn immediately stopped, looking up at you. “What the fuck?” He quickly scrambled to cover himself, red tinting his cheeks from embarrassment.
“I'm sorry, I'm so sorry I was just coming to talk”. You quickly tried to exit the room, embarrassed from what happened.
“Wait”. Fionn said, reluctance lacing his voice. “What is it?”  
“Well…I just wanted to talk about…about why you've been ignoring me since that night. “Ignoring you? Y/N you're the one that said we could never happen, remember?”
“I know that Fionn, but we could still be friends, you seem to not want me in your life at all”.
Fionn sighed as he sat up a little straighter, still trying to hide his hard on.
“It's… it's not that I don't want to be friends, it's that I don't know if I can with you. I want you more than a step sister, i think I'm falling in love with you Y/N, I've been attracted to you sense the moment we met two years ago”.
Did he really think he was falling in love with you? He was well liked by many girls at school, he could have anyone he wanted, but he wanted you.
“I want that too Fionn, and truth is I'm falling for you too. Why do you think I walk around in basically nothing all the time? I wanted you to notice me”.
“Then why didn't you let me in your room the other night? I thought things were going well”.
Fionn wasn't making this easy for you, you wanted to be with him, but it's not very common for step siblings to be together. “They were, it's just…we could never truly be together, we'd have to sneak around”. “Then sneak around with me, I don't care how I have to have you, I just want you”. You stood thinking for a second. Was this really what was best? You wanted Fionn more than a step brother, but at what cost?
“Alright, we’ll do it, but you have to promise no one will find out”.
“Promise”.
You stood there awkwardly, not sure where this left the two of you now. Fionn continued to cover himself as he sat on the bed. He didn't plan on rubbing himself against the sheets, and he definitely didn't plan on you walking in on it. It all started with him being too hot, so he stripped down to nothing, then he couldn't help but to think of you wearing his clothes and walking out of the shower in just a towel. He moved a certain way, rubbing himself lightly on the sheet that laid on top of him. It felt good, and he needed it, but what he really needed was you.
“Well…goodnight”. You said as you headed out of Fionns room. “Wait” you turned to face him, you could see how embarrassed he was with how frantic he sounded when he called for you. “Stay...please, help me?”
You raised one eyebrow at him as your head filled with the images of the two of you, you helping him with his problem, but you couldn’t let him know that you so desperately want to help him.
“Been trying to get off for days, I just can’t seem to cum...need...need you”. “Ok”. His face lit up, more in shock than happiness, he couldn’t believe that you had actually agreed. “You’ll...you’ll help?”
You rolled your eyes. “Yea, I said I would didn’t I?”
You walked over to his bed, bending down and lightly capturing his lips in yours, deepening the kiss and tasting his mouth as your explore with your tongue, tasting the cigarette that he had a bit earlier and a natural sweetness that seemed to always be there. 
Fionn had slipped one hand under the sheet and was stroking himself, moaning in your mouth as he felt the pleasure. You slide your hand under the sheet, grabbing him and stroking him yourself, his free had that wasn’t holding himself up had snuck up under the shirt that you were wearing and gripping at your hip, his moans and whimpers getting louder as you worked him.
“Scoot back and lay down”. You said breathlessly as you broke the kiss, eyes still shut and forehead rested against his. Fionn did just as you asked, now fully laying down on the bed with you between his legs, teasing his by kissing as his hips and avoiding the one place he needed you the most.
“Please love, no teasing...not tonight”.
You did as he asked, grabbing him by his base and licking a broad stipe all the way to his tip, your lips wrapping around it as you flick your tongue over the slit. Fionn gasped loudly, trying his best to stay quiet so your parents wouldn’t hear, but you felt too good and this was just your mouth, he couldn’t help but to think what your warm, wet, tight center would feel like wrapped around him.
 Fionns whimpers were becoming louder, you were now fully bobbing your head up and down as you hallowed your cheeks out, making your mouth even tighter on him. You were keeping perfect eye contact, occasionally gagging on his length while you squeezed and tugged at his balls, trying to give him ultimate pleasure. “Y/N... please, I need you...need to feel your warm center wrapped around me, want to be inside you please”. Fionn begged with his eyes screwed shut from how hard he was now, your mouth was amazing but he needed you.
“Fionn what about our parents, I mean what if they hear?”
Fionn shook his head, now sitting up on his elbows. “They won’t, come here”. He said as he stretched his arm out to you. You sat up, straddling his lap as his placed his hand on the side of your face, bringing you closer to him and passionately kissing you. The kiss becoming more heated as he unbuttons your shirt.
“Always loved you in my clothes”. He mumbled against your lips as he pulled it from your body, revealing you to him. “I like your clothes, they smell like you”.Fionns hands were rested on your hips as he scanned your body, he was in awe.
“God you’re beautiful”. He said as he pulled you in for another kiss, your clothed center now grinding on his  length. You were already wet, sucking Fionn off could have made you cum just from his sounds and taste alone. You needed him inside you, but you didn’t know how quiet you could be.
“Let’s take these off”. Fionn said breaking the kiss and sitting up, you sat up helping him to pull your panties off before grabbing a condom from the drawer and rolling it on, you sinking down on him. You moaned as he entered you, he wasn’t huge, but he was thick and you loved the delicious burn he left in between your legs.
Tumblr media
“Shit, you feel better than I could have imagined, so wet. Are you this wet from me, from having my cock in your mouth?”
You hummed out an ‘uh huh’ as you began to slowly bounce up and down on him, you hands firmly placed on his chest so you could balance. “Fionn, you feel so good stretch me so good”.
Fionns hands were firmly gripping your hips as you rode him, you could see his neck straining from him trying to stay quiet when really all he wanted to do was moan out how pretty you were.“Love, you’re so beautiful riding me, but we have to hurry, don’t want one of them hearing and I don’t know how long I can stay quiet for”.
Fionn pulled you down, your chest firmly against his, he wrapped one arm around your lower back, holding you in the perfect position for him to thrust up into you. He started off slow as you slowly kissed, you could feel every bit of him, every ridge and vein slowly caressing you. You were a moaning mess, you couldn’t suppress your moans like he could, he felt too good, hitting just the right spot.
“F-Fionn...you feel so good, please don’t stop”.
“I’m not love, but you have to stay quiet”. He said through gritted teeth with his eyes tightly closed. 
You let out another moan and Fionn took his free hand and placed it over your mouth as he began to fuck up into you faster. You could feel that you were close and so was Fionn. Tears were now streaming down your face and running into Fionns hand, he felt too good, hitting that spot deep inside you that took you over the edge. Your eyes rolled to the back of your head as you came around him, milking him of his orgasm. You rolled off of Fionn, your entire body limp as you both tried to catch your breath.
“That was fucking amazing”. Fionn said, eyes still closed and shivering every once in a while still affected from the intense orgasm.
“Yea...it was”.
Fionn opened his eyes and turned to face you, pushing a strand of your hair behind your ear. He didn’t think that you could be anymore beautiful than when you were riding him, but this, this was absolutely stunning, your post sex faze.
“What I want to do...what I really want to do is make love to you. Slow, passionate love where I can hear your moans and really feel you, where I can kiss every inch of your body and make you come multiple times. I’m sorry it wasn’t like that...our first time”.
“What are you talking about? Fionn, it was perfect, you were perfect. I mean yea that does sound nice, but I wouldn’t trade what just happened for anything”. Fionn gently kissed you. 
“You’ve got to go back to your room”.
“I know, but I don’t want too”. // The past few weeks were all the same, Fionn sneaking into your room one night saying that y’all weren’t going to do anything, and then there you were, intensely making out with his fingers deep inside you. But sometimes all you did was talk or cuddle then fall asleep only to wake up at two AM freaking out that your parents had found you. Some nights you went to Fionns room, you’d end up sucking him off or pleasing him with your hand before laying in his bed and discussing your dreams with each other.
One night the two of you and your parents were downstairs watching a movie, you and Fionn on one couch bundled under a blanket, and your parents on the other. You were especially cheeky that night, you didn’t know what had came over you, but you thought it could have been the little make out session the two of you had before coming downstairs.
 Fionn had tasted of his cigarettes again, you didn’t smoke and you  usually hated when people did, but something about him doing it and the way he would taste after turned you on. During a particularly interesting scene, you snuck your hand into the waistband of his grey sweatpants, teasing his length, it now semi hard and Fionn was asking you to please stop, but you didn’t. Fionn had to get up and finish taking care of the problem you caused before coming back to finish the movie.
You claimed that it was just payback for the night you all went out to dinner. Fionn tried to finger you under the table, right there in front of your parents and a whole restaurant, a cocky smirk  on his lips when you let out a little gasp. // “So dad, I have to ask you something”. You were all sitting at dinner, Alyssa had made a roast that she let sit in the crockpot all day, so the whole house smelled amazing. “Should I be nervous?”  Your dad asked as he stopped eating, his full attention now on you.
“No, no. It’s just, I have this project for French class, I have to write about historical events, places, the food, art. They want to send me to France for a few days, all expenses paid. I can bring one person with me, but I know how busy you and Alyssa are so I was wondering if I could go alone”.
You could see your father contemplating on it, he was super strict, but you just didn’t know how he would feel about you going alone. “You can go, but on one condition”. “Yea anything dad”. “You have to take Fionn with you, that is if it’s ok with him”.
Fionn looked shocked as he looked up from his food, had your dad really just given him the best gift he could as for, he would get to be alone with you in a city where no one knew you were step siblings.
“Of course, id love to go”.
The two of you tried to contain your smiles so it wouldn’t be so obvious. “Ok, it’s settled then”. Your dad went back to eating, but all you could think of was you and Fionn finally alone. // You and Fionn had survived the two and a half hour train ride, finally arriving in Paris, where there was a car waiting for the two of you at the train station. Finally making it to the hotel and checking in, you  and Fionn were both exhausted, falling asleep in the bed and decided to do your sight seeing tomorrow.
You and Fionn were having an amazing day, and you had to head back tomorrow so you were trying to make the best of the time you had. You started your day off with breakfast at a cute little cafe right around the corner from the hotel, then heading to the Eiffel Tower and the Louvre. You loved every minute of it, getting to act like a couple with Fionn, getting to hold his hand in public, it was amazing.
“I don’t want to go back tomorrow”. Fionn said as you slowed danced to the music that was being played. You were eating dinner at a cafe that had live music at nights, there was even a dance floor with strings of lights hanging above it.
“I don’t either”. You said as you rested your head on his chest.
“I’m serious Y/N, I wish we didn’t have too. Today has been amazing, I got to show everyone that your mine, I got to act like your boyfriend in public, I even got to hold your hand. No one knows us here so we can be what we want to be, and I love you, I’m in love with you”.
You couldn’t believe how sweet he was being, truth was you didn’t want to go back either, you just wanted to escape to this world where no one knew who the two of you really were to each other. “I love you too Fionn”.
He grabbed your face, gently kissing you as you stopped dancing. This was something new as well, something you couldn’t do back home. Kiss in public.
“See that, I want to kiss you when and where I want to kiss you, and I know that we can’t back home but, I’m glad I got the chance too here”.
What the two of you didn’t know was that James had come to France for the weekend, and that he was still bitter over you breaking up with him. He had thought that maybe there was another guy, but never your step brother. James made sure to snap a few pictures of the two of you, especially you kissing.
“Fionn, can we go back to the hotel? There’s one more thing I want to do before we go home”.
“Sure Love”.
As soon as you made it into your room you headed to the bathroom and Fionn laid down on the bed. You had bought special lingerie for tonight and you just hoped Fionn didn’t think it was too much. It was a black lacy matching two piece, you’d gotten it two days before, you felt confident in it, so you thought he may like it. Before stepping out, you pull one of his button ups over your head. 
Crawling into bed, you immediately kiss Fionn. “Not that I’m complaining, but what are you doing, isn’t there something you said you wanted to do?”
“Fionn, do you remember that night when we had sex, and you said that you wanted to make slow passionate love to me?”
“Yes”. That was all you had to say to trigger his memory, after he said yes he immediately grabbed your face, slowly and passionately kissing you, laying you down on the bed with him hovering over.
“Can’t believe I wasn’t gonna use this as my opportunity”. He mumbled as he kissed his way down your body, unbuttoning his shirt that you were wearing. The cold air hitting the trail that he left behind of hot, wet kisses, causing goosebumps to rise on your skin.
He made his way to your panties, sitting up to look at you sprawled out beneath him.
“Is this new?” He asked as he picked at the lingerie. You nodded your head “Yea, got it for you”.
“You look absolutely gorgeous love, but I’m gonna have to take these off now”. He said as he slowly slide your panties down, you lifted your hips up to help him. He tossed them to the corner of the room before removing his own shirt and kissing you again, making his way back down to your center.
“Can I taste you love, please?” “Yes, please Fionn”.
Tumblr media
He spread your knees to give him access to the one thing he’s being dying to do. Taste you.
“You’re so beautiful”. He said in awe as he gently rubbed his finger over your clit before placing his hot wet mouth over it. You let out a little gasp at the sensation, his mouth felt amazing as he flicked his tongue over your clit, working you to your first orgasm.
“Fionn, don’t stop please... you feel too good”. Fionn worked you with his tongue as he pushed one finger inside of you, pumping it in and out at a slow pace. You gripped Fionns hair as he continued to lick you to your orgasm, his name falling from your lips every once in a while along with whimpers.
“Taste so good love, sweeter than your hot chocolate”. He was now sucking at your bundle of nerves, a second finger now stroking your walls.
“F-fuck I’m gonna cum...keep doing it just like that and I’m gonna cum”. Fionn continued his assault on your clit, now humming at your taste, finally pushing you to your orgasm. Your legs tried to close around his head as they shook from how hard you were coming. Fionn licked you through it before sitting up, your juices covering his mouth and chin. 
Fionn kissed you, you could taste yourself on him, it was sweet and bit bitter. You were trying to undo his jeans, all you really wanted now was to feel the burn of that stretch that you loved so much. “Please Fionn...I wanna feel you Please, you stretch me so good, want you inside me”. “Ok love”. he said as he sat up, undoing his pants and removing them, throwing them to the corner of the room along with your panties
He lined himself up with you, slowly pushing himself in so you could really feel the stretch and it was even more delicious than before. This was a feeling that you would never get tired of, a feeling that you craved and needed.
“So amazing, you feel so amazing”. Fionn said with his head buried in your neck, leaving hot wet kisses on it as he slowly thrusted into you, Whispering sweet nothings in your ear, telling you how beautiful you are, and how much he loves you.
As he began to thrust deeper and your moans and his growls became louder, you started to move your hips against his, causing him to moan out your name with a shaky voice.  
“Come with me love Please, I want to come with you”. He said sounding so desperate like he needed it more than air itself.
“Fionn...I think I’m close”. You could feel your stomach tightening as your orgasm washed over you, Fionn was now moaning out your name as well as you his. You gripped his back, digging your nails into the porcelain flesh, wrapping your leg around his ass, pushing him even deeper into you as you worked your hips against him.
You made love twice that night, the first time and the second time you rode him. Fionn told you the entire time how good you felt and how beautiful you looked, he even made sure to take care of you after, getting you water and a banana. // You got back on the train the next morning, sleeping through the two and a half hour journey home. As soon as you both walked into the house your parents were sitting on the couch, waiting for you.
“Hey guys”. Fionn said when they didn’t say anything, but just looked at the two of you like they were disappointed.
“Fionn, Y/N, I think you need to sit down, we need to have a talk”. Alyssa said, sternness coating her voice. The two of you sat opposite your parents, awaiting what was going to happen.
“It has come to our attention that possibly the two of you are more than step siblings” you father said, staring the two of you down.
“I don’t know what you’re talking about”. You said fear filling your stomach.
“Really?” Your dad asked as he flipped over a picture. It was of you and Fionn in Paris at the cafe. Fionn was kissing you and you both looked so happy. Alyssa sat down two more pictures, one of y’all dancing and the other of you holding hands.
“James sent them to us, said he was in Paris and saw the two of you, he’s concerned”.
“He’s not concerned, he’s just some dick that’s upset that Y/N left him for me”.
“Fionn please sit down”. Alyssa said in a calming voice as Fionn continued on his rampage.
“No! I love Y/N ok, I’m in love with her. We’re not related, our parents just decided to marry a year ago so it’s not wrong”.
Your parents looked at each other as Fionn tried to calm down. You sat there nervous of what was to come.
“Well, if that’s how the two of you feel, you have our blessing”. Your father smiled at you, your face filled with shock and Fionn was frozen next to you.
“Are you serious?”  You asked grabbing onto Fionns hand.
“Yes, we just want you to be happy” Alyssa said smiling at your father. Fionn grabbed your face, quickly kissing you from the joy that was coursing through him.
“You can finally be mine, always and Forever”.
“Always and forever”. You said smiling, your heart finally content.

Anonymous asked:
i’m sorry i didn’t come back yesterday... i didn’t like talking about it (。-_-。 ) i'm very behind, and do not know how to make friends very well (*´-`) but today i’m feeling better that way, but a little sick in here (@´_`@)what do you have tord?-shy anon
Tord: um? a pen?
(tord locked up the sample yesterday, he’s just doing some paperwork. right now. tom and matt are in his room as they earned the rest of the day off for further exploring that lab. it was horrible for them… -mod x)
spooncryptid asked:
Hewwo
Tord: hey cryptid.
spooncryptid asked:
You guys doin ok?
Tom: we’ve been *cough* better.
Matt: *moan*
spooncryptid asked:
Mm? What happened??
Tom: tord took a closer look at that piece of scrap metal we found yesterday and thought it was part of some kind of timer so me and matt had to go looking for more parts to it…
Matt: everything hurts and it was so slow!
spooncryptid asked:
That sounds awful!! Are you gonna be ok???
Tom: … I’m still nauseous…
Matt: I think we’ll be fine… Just need some time to recover.
spooncryptid asked:
Mm.. could I help with anything?
Matt: … i heard purring cats can make people feel better… *grabby hands*
spooncryptid asked:
Ok!! Are you ok with snuggling? Or does it hurt??
Matt: yes, come here. my muscles are just sore.
Anonymous asked:
some strong tea could help with the scent ╮(─▽─)╭-shy anon
Tom: maybe, but the red army seems to have a preference to coffee as apposed to tea, so unless you have some i’m shit outta luck.
spooncryptid asked:
//happily goes to Matt//
matt pulls you into his and tom’s laps. they both start petting you.
spooncryptid asked:
//purrs and snuggles into them//
they relax a little bit. tom still looks a bit sick but matt already looks much better.
spooncryptid asked:
(Cryptid, I was hoping I’d have a little bit longer before i started existing today)
Tord: but… he was awake yesterday and you existed?
spooncryptid asked:
(Yea, I’m just tired today, trying not to use as much energy)
Tord: then stop hiding.
spooncryptid asked:
(Hiding?? That’d be a real waste of energy, why would I be hiding?)
Tord: you act like i don’t live with people who can change what they look like in the blink of an eye. you don’t fool me.
spooncryptid asked:
(What’re you talking about??)
Tord: i may not know what you are specifically but i know your not human, and i damn well know you don’t actually look like that.
spooncryptid asked:
(Oh that, I do this more to focus myself, and not to unsettle people, but if you’re good talking to a disembodied voice then I’m fine with that)
Tord: just point me at a thing and i’ll pretend it’s you. it’ll be like i’m talking to tom’s mom or something.
spooncryptid asked:
(Im really fine, I’m saving energy by not being corporeal right now)
Tord: good, now you don’t have to answer this but… what are you any way?
spooncryptid asked:
(I’m from the void, I don’t think there’s a specific name for what I am, I’m basically an inter dimensional formless sentience that’s found a way to interact with universes I find interesting)
Tord: … nice… how much can you do?
spooncryptid asked:
(Well it really depends on how much energy I have, but I can go between different universes and dimensions and manifest how I choose, in a few cases I can slightly warp the previous reality to make something new, like Cryptid! though that was kind of an accident and I don’t really know how I did it)
Tord: …huh. well alright then…
savior au:
@mayhemandmonsters
Tom: hey! mayhem i managed to get the assassins here, come meet Ares.
Tord: that can not seriously be his name…
Tom: her and yes it is. the other two don’t wanna give me their names.
mayhem:
Tumblr media
“That’s good news, and as you can see, Matt and I got that inter-dimensional portal thing working.” He gave Ares and the other two a smile. “And just in time too. I sent another of their jerk recruiters away, this time with a broken arm on top of the broken nose.”
savior au:
Tom: glad we got them here when we did then. don’t expect a response from these guys, they don’t exactly talk much…
Tord: that’s the understatement of a lifetime.
Tom: shut up commie.
mayhem:
Tumblr media
“Haven’t heard someone other than me get called Commie in a long time.” He grinned before turning serious. He had a folder with all the information he and 3301′s men had gathered on the group. “This should have more information on those Templars Reborn jerks.”
savior au:
the three nod in unison (”oh come on tom! you have to admit that’s creepy!” “hush.”) and step away from tom and tord. they wait patiently for their transportation.
mayhem:
He presses a button on a small device and sets it down, grinning when the spell it held activated and opened a portal to his backyard. He gave the three a nod and handed over the folder he had.
savior au:
tom and tord watched as Ares gently took the folder from mayhem before she and her fellow assassins vanished into thin air. tord jumped at their unexplained and instantaneous disappearances while tom appeared more interested in the portal and the affects it had on the world around it.
mayhem:
He shut it down after the three vanished, a bit curious about how they did that. “Well hopefully that problem’s over with now that those three are on it.”
He smiled a bit before letting out a sigh. “Did you ever figure out what that stuff on that scrap of metal was?”
savior au:
Tord: yes and no, the explosion was a decoy unfortunately…
Tom: they were testing their weapon.
Tord: it is some kind of deterring agent meant to keep supernatural beings away. just a little spritz of this stuff and the surrounding area and anything it lands on becomes the most vile thing in the world to any supernatural being in the vicinity.
Tom: the worst part is we don’t know what it’s made of and the only sample we have is contaminated by the other things that were in the lab, so we can’t even reverse engineer it either. meaning no fixing the lab any time soon, or clearing out that horrible smell.
spooncryptid asked:
(Hey, sorry for blinking out before, what happened while I was gone?)
Matt: tom and tord went to set things up with mayhem.
spooncryptid asked:
(Ah, alright, how are you feeling?)
Matt: much better. kitty purrs are magic. and naps help too.
mayhem:
Tumblr media
“I’d love to punch the jerk that made it.” He growled for a moment before pausing, now he was a bit concerned about it’s affects. “I’m kind of wondering how it affected me so much, unless it was bleed over from exposure to all the supernatural beings I’ve encountered.”
It was a bit worrying that it could affect a human with the exposure he’s had. What if it updated to be used on humans with bleed over from supernatural beings too?
savior au:
Tom: as it didn’t affect this asshole *points at tord* it’s more likely it just affected you because you were a leviathan briefly.
Tord: either that or it affects supernatural creatures and people from other universes.
spooncryptid asked:
(That’s good to hear, did anything else interesting happen today?)
Matt: after the lab visit? not a lot… that i know of anyway. i was napping for most of the day.
spooncryptid asked:
(Mmm, that that sounds nice.. did you find anything at the lab?)
Matt: the rest of the pieces of the detonator, but not much else.
spooncryptid asked:
(Hmm, well that sucks.. you guys should tell me if you’re gonna investigate the lab again, Since I don’t get any weird effects from whatever’s in there)
Matt: lucky! i felt like i was carrying around lead weights all day!
mayhem:
Tumblr media
“Those are pretty good theories. Still, kind of a bit disturbing to know that someone is aware that supernatural beings exist and is trying to repel them.”
This was getting more and more complicated. “Might be a good idea to make something that’ll block scents if it’s used anywhere Tom works so he can at least be in the area, then have me take a look for him.”
savior au:
Tom: we’ll have to look into that.
Tord: very disturbing, but we’ll get the vile thing that did this, and they’ll regret it.
spooncryptid asked:
(Jesus, definitely ask for me next time! I don’t want you or Tom to get hurt by that stuff)
Matt: it didn’t hurt per say, i was just soooo tired.
mayhem:
Tumblr media
“I hope you do, I’d rather not come for a visit and instantly want to run away because of that stuff.”
savior au:
Tom: at least you’d have a quick way back? i mean you did make a portal.
Tord: we will find a way to neutralize this stuff, don’t you worry.
spooncryptid asked:
(Still, you shouldn’t overexert yourself like that, it can’t be healthy)
Matt: i had to! tom couldn’t even go very far into the room before he actually vomited!
mayhem:
Tumblr media
“The portal’s more of a really complicated spell contained in a device that powers it when the button’s pressed. It can be used up to three times before needing to be recharged.”
He did seem a bit relieved at the thought of that stuff being neutralized.
savior au:
Tom: so it’s magic, not machine?
Tord: it may take a bit but i won’t let it be until that shit is useless.
mayhem:
Tumblr media
“It’s mostly a machine that contains and powers the magic.” He was pretty proud of the work put into this.
“And good, that stuff is bad for everyone. And I’d hate to see it be used to hurt others.”
savior au:
Tord: me too…
Tom: we should be getting back to matt soon, i don’t think that nap helped him as much as he said it did.
Tord: probably. hopefully we managed to help, see you some time soon mayhem.
mayhem:
Tumblr media
“Alright, see you guys another time.” He gave them a little wave, then used the portal device to return home. A few moments later another spell on it activates and the device itself vanishes to return to its world.
