Summary: When the disbelief of others starts to get in the way, some things must be proved.

Pairing: OT8x female!reader

Words: one word for each member

Genre: Smut

You and Hongjoong were everyone's otp. The adorable couple, always holding hands and whispering sweet nothings to each other, making some people fall in love with you falling in love and others (mainly Mingi, Jongho, and Wooyoung) gag.

But you didn't mind one bit, all you cared for was Hongjoong. You didn't think your relationship was a big deal, but apparently, there were whispers and conspiracy theories. For some reason, everyone around you thought you never had sex. People just assumed the two of you were too pure, and since they had never seen any suggestive touching or any lewd whispers between the two, everyone just thought you had agreed on having sex until marriage. For the first year of your relationship, you were very oblivious about these claims, but since you were everyone's favourite couple, questions started becoming more frequent. Questions that would soon be answered.

It was a random night, the boys had ordered a bunch of fried chicken and planned on staying home and resting on their day off.

"Hey, Seonghwa, truth or dare?" San asked as he sat back down after being forced to wash the dishes.

Seonghwa, who was passing around the beer bottles, one for each, raised his brow at Wooyoung.

"Are the two beers you had making you horny already?" Seonghwa mocked.

"Just answer."

"Fine, dare."

"Send a thirsty text to your last contact. Anyone in this room doesn't count."

Seonghwa rolled his eyes and grabbed his phone to check who it was.

"Oh come on guys it's Wooyoung's mom, he called her from my phone!"

Wooyoung's hyena laugh echoed in the room. As Seonghwa stared at San, asking for mercy, the man just shrugged.

"Do it or strip, honey."

"Go fuck yourself." Seonghwa cursed, before removing his shirt.

Mingi whistled at the man's torso, making Seonghwa blush and flip his friend off at the same time.

"My turn right?" He then asked, getting his confirmation from everyone else. "Uhh, I guess, Wooyoung. Truth or dare."

"Dare." The male replied, not even giving it much thought.

"Okay then," Seonghwa paused, and grabbed one of Yunho's empty beer bottles "spin this, and you have to spank whoever it lands on."

Wooyoung shrugged and spun the bottle that landed on Mingi. The latter's eyes immediately widened and he put his hands up defensively, but upon seeing the looks of anticipation in the room he gave in.

"It's always fucking me dude, cmon..." He complained as he stood up and motioned for Wooyoung to come closer.

Mingi turned around and placed his hands on the kitchen counters while standing in a very stiff way. Wooyoung rubbed his hands together as if warming them up, as he stood behind his friend, before spanking his ass a couple times.

Wooyoung then got back to his seat, as if nothing had happened, while Mingi stared daggers at Seonghwa for the bright dare idea.

"Alright, my turn! Y/N," You knew it was coming, but hearing your name being called by Wooyonung in a truth or dare game was BAD news.

You tapped your index finger on your chin as you thought. Saying truth right on the first round was kind of lame, but receiving a dare from Wooyoung? No.

"Truth." You replied after a couple seconds.

Wooyoung smiled in a weird way as if that was exactly the response he wanted.

"What's the furthest you and Hongjoong have gone?"

The room fell silent, as Wooyoung indirectly asked what everyone wanted to know. All eyes were on you, and you felt very awkward in the current position. Not because discussing your sex life or talking about sex bothered you, but because why the fuck was everyone so interested in it.

"What do you mean?"

Some of the boys groaned as they thought you were just trying to deflect the question out of shyness.

"Ugh, you know what I mean! Like how far have you gone, sexually."

You made a disgusted face.

"You want to know our kinks? Wooyoung, ew! What do you wanna know that for?"

Wooyoung's eyes went wide.

"Your kinks? Do you guys have kinks? You mean, you've discussed stuff like that?"

Finally understanding what they meant, and what they wanted with the whole conversation, Hongjoong turned his body, facing Wooyoung. Your boyfriend placed a hand on your thigh and looked Wooyoung in the eye.

"Wooyoung, I fuck her."

There was a collective silence, out of shock. Seonghwa was the only one who wasn't really surprised since they shared the room, he had seen Hongjoong not so secretly lifting up the covers and taking a pic to send you.

"Why is there such a big shock? Why were you guys so interested in this, I'm so confused... Did you think that after one year together we hadn't had sex at all?..."

"Well," San started "since we never really saw or heard anything, and since you two are so vanilla all the time, we just assumed you wanted to save it for a 'special day'."

You and Hongjoong exchanged confused looks, before bursting out laughing. Upon seeing everyone's perplexed look, Hongjoong decided to explain.

"We met on a BDSM matching website guys."

The table was covered by beer, spat out by three unfortunate guys who happened to be taking a sip of their beer as Hongjoong said that.

"Now you're just messing with us." Jongho called out.

Hongjoong shrugged, not really caring if they believed him or not, but they wouldn't let it slide that easily, they wanted to believe it.

"Fine, then prove it." Wooyoung said, crossing his arms in a 'ha, I got you' manner.

"Come on Wooyoung, what's Hongjoong gonna do? Bend her over on the table?" Yunho tried to rationalize but instead gave Hongjoong an idea.

The man shrugged and stood up. He gripped your hair lightly, in such a way that he would have control over you, yet he wouldn't hurt you and made you stand up and then press your face against the white table. Your boyfriend decided to spice it up by slapping your ass a couple times.

"That proof enough?" He asked, as he let go of you and sat back down.

"I... I guess? It's so weird though we never see you do anything remotely sexual, not even when she's over." Jongho explained.

"We do. You either don't notice it or we hide it. For example, this," Hongjoong paused, hooking his finger on the silver ring hanging from your pink choker "is for her leash, she wears it all the time but you've never noticed it."

"Excuse me, her leash?" Yeosang asked, in disbelief.

"Y/N why don't you go fetch it? So we can show them?" Hongjoong asked, as he lightly slapped your thigh.

"Sure!" You replied, kissing the top of his head as you stood up.

You went into the room he shared with Seonghwa and reached under his bed, to retrieve his secret stash, filled with all of the things you used on each other, and grabbed your leash.

When you went back into the kitchen with it on your hand, everyone was in disbelief, almost as if they didn't believe it. Hongjoong stood up and hooked the leash to the choker.

"Good girl." He said, as he cupped your cheeks and looked into your eyes.

"I still don't buy the BDSM website thing, that's too much for me to believe given that you're both so cutesy."

Wooyoung kept pushing Hongjoong's buttons, and he'd stop at nothing. The latter bent slightly and placed his hands on the table, looking Wooyoung straight in the eye.

"I will bend her on this table again and fuck her if that's what it takes for you to believe me."

"Do it." Wooyoung said, with his shit-eating grin thinking that Hongjoong was just bluffing, but oh was he wrong.

The man tugged on the choker for you to stand up again, and pushed you against the flat surface. Hongjoong stood behind you and bent over slightly to whisper in your ear.

"You good princess?" He asked.

You looked around the table and a smirk grew on your face, from the mixture of shock and anticipation.

"Do it." You said, giving him all the consent you needed.

You could already feel his boner pressing against your ass, as you knew anything that involved people watching aroused him. Sadly for the two of you, there wasn't much you could do most of the time, since he was an idol and couldn't risk getting caught, so you would seize the moment.

Hongjoong spanked your ass a couple of times to really get himself going, before yanking your leggings and underwear down with one movement. He knelt down behind you, and you just knew he was grinning like a little asshole.

Your face got hot, as your boyfriend ran a couple of fingers between your folds.

"Seems like we're enjoying this quite a bit, aren't we?" Hongjoong asked, grabbing your ass cheeks with his hands.

"Are you gonna do something about it or will I have to?" You replied, to which you got a bunch of ooh's from the spectators around you.

Hongjoong stood up, his tongue poking against the inside of his cheek, and pulled on the leash, so you'd stand up as well and fall with your back against his chest.

"Just because they're watching," He started, gripping your jaw so you'd be looking at everyone around the room "doesn't mean you'll get off easy, so I'd mind my tone if I were you."

"Or what?"

Hongjoong, despite what it might have looked like, loved when you acted out because it gave him a reason to push you even more.

Your boyfriend tugged on the leash again, so you'd get down on your knees. You waited as he quickly pulled down his sweats, immediately revealing his rock-hard cock. He got a hold of it and tapped your lips with his tip.

"Open wide." He joked, before bottoming out inside of your mouth.

You could feel his tip on the back of your throat, and so you held onto his thighs with your hands for some stability. Your nails dug into his skin as he fucked your mouth as he pleased. Hongjoong knew to pull out from time to time, to let you breathe, and he always took those moments to admire how beautiful you looked, full of spit and tears, right before he shoved his cock back inside your mouth.

As he grabbed the back of your head and kept thrusting into your mouth, your watery, pleasure-filled eyes met Mingi's. He had the look of someone who knew they shouldn't be enjoying it, but were nevertheless.

Hongjoong didn't fail to notice this, and so he pulled out and pulled you up, by your pretty leash.

"What are you looking at him for? Do you want him to fuck you like I do?"

You leaned against Hongjoong's chest, and he pet your hair as you both looked at Mingi.

"Maybe." You confessed.

The other man was very confused and conflicted. Did they mean it? Would Hongjoong be okay with it? Was it supposed to be a test? Because if it was he was going to fail it.

"Do you wanna fuck her, Mingi?" Hongjoong asked.

He obviously did, his eyes had been stuck on you ever since you walked in with the leash on your hands.

"Can I?" Mingi asked, just to be sure.

Hongjoong looked at you, for you to reply. All you did was bend over the table once more, and wiggle your naked ass while looking at Mingi.

Your boyfriend chuckled and pat your ass.

"Isn't she a treat?"

Mingi took no time in standing up and moving behind you, as he pulled out his already hard cock. All of them were hard, and you knew it.

They all watched (including your boyfriend, that took a seat and began stroking his cock) as Mingi slipped inside of you with a deep groan. He was significantly larger than Hongjoong, and it gave you a brand new, different feeling, that had you moaning at every thrust.

"Shit, you feel so good." Mingi groaned as he sped up the pace.

His big hands grabbed your ass cheeks, squeezing and slapping them here and there, until he came inside you, with a moan so deep you could've came just from it, but you had to hold it in, 'cause you knew you had a long night in front of you.

Mingi groaned as he saw his cum drip down your thighs.

"I have three holes and they're all empty somehow." You said, shocking everyone on the table.

They had never imagined you were so dirty, and they were loving it.

Hongjoong got a hold of your leash and pulled you down to the ground, with a dirty smile on his face.

"Could I have gotten someone better?" Hongjoong asked as he kissed your lips, slowly and passionately, before making you get on all fours.

He slammed his cock into you, fucking Mingi's cum back into you, as he took a hold of the leash and tugged on it.

"Fuck it." you heard Seonghwa say, and before you knew it, he knelt in front of you, stroking his cock.

You opened your mouth and stuck out your tongue, giving him permission to fuck your mouth, and so he slipped inside. He threw his head back and groaned as his tip bumped against the back of your throat. The vibration of your moans from being fucked by Hongjoong didn't help, as Seonghwa wanted to enjoy the moment for as long as he could.

"Shit, isn't she good Seonghwa? Such a good girl for us..." Hongjoong said while slapping your ass.

"Yes, she is, too good man, fuck."

Seeing Seonghwa bust out of his goody-two-shoes act, fucking your mouth his lips agape, breathing hard, and brushing back his sweaty, dark hair to be able to see your face clearly was driving you insane.

Hongjoong was proud of how well his girl was doing, and it wasn't long before he and Yeosang spilled inside of you. Senoghwa came first, as Hongjoong was more used to being able to hold it in. He waited until you were almost there, so he could cum in you and pull out, denying you your orgasm as a 'punishment' for talking back.

"Joongie..." You pouted.

He got you back on your feet by pulling on the leash, making you gasp slightly.

"Payback is a bitch darling." He said, as he caressed your face and kissed your lips, passionately.

"You two don't need to stare, just get over here." Hongjoong said after pulling away from you, then looking over at Yunho and Jongho.

They were definitely the shyest in the room. They definitely wanted to break you in two but, but the whole situation made them a little reluctant.

The duo exchanged a look, before standing up and approaching you. You weren't gonna lie, although you were extremely turned on, it was very intimidated, having Yunho stand in front of you and Jongho behind you. Being between two huge men was menacing yet exciting.

Your body was pressed up against theirs, and you had never seen Yunho's face look so serious. His eyes were dark and shimmery, and his jaw was clenched. Before you could say anything, he smashed his lips against yours. Yunho made out with you while Jongho's hands played with your ass, and his lips bit and sucked on your neck.

Slowly, Yunho lifted up your leg and rested it on the table. You could feel both of them moving and pulling out their cocks, and as if coordinated, they pushed themselves inside of you at the same time, and you pulled out of Yunho's kiss to gasp. You dipped your head on the crook of his neck and they both fucked you.

Jongho was aware he had to be more careful, but fuck was it hard.

They snapped their hips against yours, their fingers digging into the skin of your waist and hips, as you bit down on Yunho's shoulder. You could hear their groans and moans right in your ear, and it was becoming increasingly hard to hold it in.

"I think she's about to break Hongjoong." Yunho said in the cockiest, most breathless voice you had ever heard come from him.

You threw your head back, supporting it on Jongho's shoulder, and you could feel yourself clenching at the words.

"Fuck, Hongjoong can I cum? Please, please..." You begged.

"You've been a good girl, go ahead."

You gripped Jongho's thighs and came on their cocks. Yunho and Jongho sped up the pace, so they could cum inside of you before you got too sensitive, as they didn't want to make you uncomfortable.

It wasn't long before they spilled inside of you and pulled out, slowly. Jongho embraced you from behind, holding you up in case you were too sensitive to stand by yourself. He let you go once he realized you were okay, and you looked over to Hongjoong.

His head signaled to the side, and you noticed San and Wooyoung desperately trying to get themselves off, and Yeosang bouncing his leg in a distressed way, while biting his lip.

You got on your knees and waved them over.

"Come on, I won't let you feel left out." You said, as you fanned yourself from how hot it felt in the room.

You could feel Yunho and Jongho's cum drip out of you and pool on the floor as you sat on your heels.

The three men approached you quickly.

"Dibs on her mouth." San said, and you truly admired how he managed to be comfortable in every situation.

"Aw come on dude..." Wooyoung whined.

Yeosang, however, seemed to be happy someone helped him get off.

You grabbed Wooyoung's and Yeosang's cock and deepthroated them for a second, so they'd be covered in spit, before starting to jack them off at the same pace. You then opened your mouth, tongue sticking out, welcoming San into it.

The latter understood how hard it would be to coordinate all three of them, so he did all the work on your mouth so you could focus on the other two.

"Fuck, had I known you enjoyed this so much I would've asked to make a guest appearance earlier." San said, as he fucked your mouth.

Yeosang grabbed your hand, and moved it faster, causing you to subconsciously speed up the hand that jerked off Wooyoung.

"Shit- Fuck." San cursed, as strings of spit left your mouth when he sped up the pace as well.

"Oh fuck I'm gonna cum." Wooyoung said, and you slightly tilted your head upwards, so he could cum on your face instead of hair.

White ropes of his cum stained your face, and not long after, San followed, pulling out to also cum on your face.

Yeosang took a little longer, you could tell he was holding back for the sake of enjoying it a bit more, but when you closed your eyes and stuck out your tongue for him to cum, he was unable to hold it any longer, and came on you as well.

As the whole room echoed with breathless men looking at you, you felt good. You were proud that you had gotten all of these insanely hot and wanted-by-everyone men to get hard for you.

Hongjoong went up to you and picked you up, cleaning up your lips slightly before kissing you. He didn't care that you just had five dicks in your mouth, you were still his girl and nothing would stop him from stealing kisses from you.

Your boyfriend smiled at you and carried you out of the division while caressing your hips.

"You did so well, I can't believe how lucky I am."

Day 6: Promises

A story told in notes

For @stucky-week 2022 day 6 and the prompt “Marriage”. Fonts for Steve & Bucky by @otp-holic.

Previous parts: Day 1, Day 2, Day 3, Day 4, Day 5

We're starting to wrap this up, here's some heartfelt fluff for the weekend. And, as it happens, for Teesha's birthday. Happy birthday! @into-a-ship-or-2

Plain text under the cut as always.

[a speech in the course of being written]

[speech notes on a stained piece of paper]

[a half-written speech]

Bucky,

I was seven years old when I told my ma that one day I was gonna marry you. She smiled at me and said: you do that, sunshine.

I was sixteen when I kissed you behind the roller-skating rink on Coney Island—and you kissed me back. That was the moment I knew I wasn't ever gonna marry anyone, because they wouldn't be you.

Today I’m standing here, after everything, with you by my side. Never tell me the odds. I still can't quite believe that what once was a naïve childhood dream is about to come true. That after this moment I get to call you my husband.

Mine. As I have been yours for as long as I can remember

~~~

[speech notes on a slightly stained and crumpled piece of paper]

Stevie,

Sweetheart, I know you hate when I call you that in public, but please indulge me this once? Let your friends see you blush all pretty and pink, the way you do for me.

You’re lucky I can't draw for shit, or I'd never stop trying to capture that face you’re making right now.

I believe what I'm supposed to do here, the custom on this kind of occasion, is to make a promise to you—a vow.

I thought about it. In sickness and in health, till death do us part—I think we've done all of those already. And i’ll do them all over again but, as a promise, it felt a bit lacking.

So, something else, then. A long time ago I picked you up in an alley behind a movie theater and you asked me where we were going. Answer’s still the same, honey—we’re going to the future.

But the where of it doesn’t really matter. There’s this kid, you see. Stubborn as hell. Brooklyn through and through. He never could walk away from a fight.

Except for when he did—for me. If that doesn’t make me a lucky bastard, I don't know.

And that kid? I'll follow him anywhere.

[aziraphales-library]

Hi, I was wondering if there is any fics that contained anathema trying to get crowley and azirphaeal to confess their feelings? Idm is its human au or not

Hello. We have some matchmaker Anathema fics here, and I’ve got a few more when she tries to get Aziraphale and Crowley together...

Let's Start the New Year Right by EveningStarcatcher (G)

Crowley has been crushing on the man who owns the bookshop across the street from his work for months, but only from afar. When his friend Anathema drags him to a New Years Eve party, he finds himself face to face with the strange and beautiful man of his affections.

For the OTP Prompt event! Based on the prompt: Aziraphale and Crowley go separately to a New Year's Party and end up standing next to each other during the countdown to midnight

Only The Good Die Young [Good Omens AU] by derpstiel (NR)

Crowley is a musician, living from pay check to pay check. Aziraphale is a rich, upper class man with his life laid out ahead of him. They couldn't be more different.

But when the two meet at a party, they discover they may have more in common than they thought.

Light, fun, fluffy, with a hint of sad pasts. Ultimately a meet-cute.

Low Expectations by Mimsynims (T)

Despite his better judgement, Anathema manages to drag Aziraphale out to a nightclub.

"You’ll never meet anyone by sitting at home, alone.”

“Is that why you wanted me to come along?”

“Yes, book boy. I know you’d love to meet Mr Right in the library or a random bookshop, but since that hasn’t happened yet, I thought we’d try something else.”

To say that he has low expectations is an understatement, but then someone unexpected catches his eye...

A Toast to the Happy Couple by FeatherBlack (T)

Aziraphale and Crowley receive an invitation to Anathema and Newt's wedding which includes Anathema's phone number. To be polite, Aziraphale calls to give his congratulations and ends up invited to help plan the wedding! Little did he know it would be his relationship with Crowley that had everyone's attention.

Or, Crowley is helplessly pining and everyone can see it. Newt tries to help and makes it worse.

Something That Happens To Other People by Caedmon (E)

Anthony J. Crowley is a hotshot political reporter who's landed himself in hot water with his editor. He finds himself demoted to the society desk, where he is assigned to cover the wedding of Anathema Device and Newton Pulsifer. He'd rather chew tin foil than lower himself in such a way, but if he's going to claw his way back to the top, he's going to have to prove himself.

Aziraphale Fell is the most sought-after wedding planner in all of London, hailed as the 'angel of love' due to his knack for picking couples who have the most successful marriages. He spends his working hours making other peoples' dreams come true... but his own dreams of romance died long ago. To his mind, love is something that happens to other people.

Sparks fly when these two cross paths, and they find themselves instantly attracted to one another. But can Crowley prove Aziraphale’s belief about love to be wrong?

secondhand smoke by PaintedVanilla (T)

you're second hand smoke, second hand smoke i breathe you in, but, honey, i don't know what you're doing to me mon chéri

the year is 1990, and anthony crowley is looking for a church in london that might be tolerable. the one he winds up attending isn't exactly such, but he decides to stick around for one reason. said reason happens to own a bookshop that crowley begins to frequent, much to the surprise and delight of anathema device and newton pulsifer, who seem quite convinced that crowley could use something else to focus on besides gardening, their campaigns, and visits to tadfield.

Keichiro and Rin - 8 23 26 29

8: Nicknames? & if so, how did they originate?

Rin calls Keiichiro "Muffin Man", though they will frequently call each other by a series of cute food-related names. It's what happens when you fall in love while working as bakers in a Cafe.

23: Who comes up with cheesy pick up lines?

Keiichiro. Some of them go right over Rin's head because she just sometimes does not get Earth and human things. On the rare occasion she gets the pick up line, she either laughs or grins and her cheeks turn pink, and that makes Keiichiro happy.

26: What would be their theme song?

Honey to the Bee by Billie Piper

29: One headcanon about your OTP that breaks your heart... (With a touch of 30, and the hc that mends it for good measure)

I've mentioned their three kids--their twins and a son--but before the twins were born, Rin and Keiichiro had a still-born daughter. Understandably, neither of them were in a good mental or emotional place for some time, especially after struggling with infertility for a long time before that and a few miscarriages, and their family and friends were afraid that they were drifting apart, that this might break them apart. It almost did. Then, about three months after they lost their daughter, they come to a breaking point that could have destroyed their marriage but instead they realized that what they really needed to do was stop trying for a child and stop focusing on that and focus on each other. They could still mourn, and grieve, but they needed to do it together. And that they needed to get away from Tokyo, and they avoided Cynnth for the same reason they wanted to get away from Tokyo--they needed to just get away for a while and go somewhere new, different, where they hadn't faced loss. So they took a sabbatical from the Cafe and traveled the world, sampling desserts, learning new techniques, trying new things, having new experiences together. They just focused on having a good time together, and healing, and fell in love all over again.

Let's just say, a few weeks after they finally returned to Tokyo, Rin learned that she was pregnant with the twins.

(Also, I swear not all of my sad OTP headcanons involve babies...)

[levis-little-nuggie]

Inspired by my tinder adventures. I keep seeing bios with nothing but: "looking for my future ex-wife" and my response to that is: "good, so you already know I'll take all your money"

This is an "imagine your OTP" where Person A can be a wealthy, successful business elite, the stoic type and Person B can be chaotic and carefree, maybe they're a student or maybe they fish for a living. Completely gender neutral for your convenience 💜

They enter an arrangement to get married for whatever reason, intention to divorce after like a month, but they catch feels, but also too oblivious and dumb to notice it.

Person B has commitment issues, leaves the day they're supposed to get the divorce leaving the papers signed, making off with the family jewels/riches and Person A's heart

Keep reading for awfully cliché dialogue that I'm not apologizing for.

"Shouldn't we call the police?"

"No Mrs. Wiggleton, let them go."

"But, the jewels!"

"..."

"You, you can't be serious"

Person A throws back the rest of the whiskey.

"You're letting them go, because you lo-"

Person A slams down the glass. "That will be all Mrs. Wiggleton."

"...understood."

Person B is the type who's always on social media. Person A watches on every platform as Person B cashes in the jewels, (all but one but A doesnt know that) and spends the cash on lavish trips and adventures. B is basically live streaming being "free" after being married to the stoic/cold/inhuman Person A, surrounding themselves with pretty people and materialistic things.

And Person A keeps watching as B's smiles falter, the shine in their eyes fade, the videos get shorter, the company slowly diminishes, the events and adventures get duller.

Person A shows up in Person B's hotel bar (or pool or whatever) and they recreate the moment they first met which is:

How they met:

B "you drinkin to forget or to party?"

A doesn't look over, debates ignoring them but the alcohol had them comfortably warm and lips looser than they'd been earlier that day. They didn't completely hate the intruder yet. "What if I said neither?"

B "no one drinks (vodka?) because they like the taste. Can I guess? Mommy and daddy want you to take over the family business."

A's eyes look over at B before turning back to their drink with a sigh

B "ooohh and an arranged marriage to merge companies? How horribly cliché."

But when A shows up at the hotel bar (or wherever), they reverse the roles. A starts with "you drinkin to forget or to party?"

B: "what if I said neither?"

A: "no one drinks (vodka?) because they like the taste. Can I guess?"

A: "it's heartbreak because you realized somewhere along the line you fell in love with a horribly cliché bastard"

How did Person A come to realize they're absolutely head over heels for Person B? Remember Mrs. Wiggleton? She's the equivalent of Mrs. Potts from Beauty and Beast.

Person B spends their time with Mrs. Wiggleton during her daily duties, helping out with, and sometimes surprising Mrs. Wiggleton by completing some of the chores. Mrs. Wiggleton and Person B gardening together, running errands together, Mrs. W is like the grandma they never had and B is like the child/grandchild they never had and they get along so well.

A, trying not to pout: you know, if it weren't for me, you never would have met Mrs. Wiggleton.

B: if it weren't for me, you'd be miserable in a loveless marriage. The difference is I don't spend your money and your staff loves me so I must be tolerable at best.

A (really wants to smack them): calling yourself "tolerable" is generous. You, are a breath away from insufferable.

Mrs. W: and you're a breath away from finding all your pants ironed slightly off-center again.

That's when Person A starts to realize they're helplessly falling in love with Person B.

I know I haven't been able to write anything new in a hot minute (more like what, 2 months? maybe 3?) This is the extent of what I'm able to produce and I really needed this to exist in my life. The idea of Person B just, being a charismatic fisherman, able to talk their way out of any problem or into any situation, a decent social media following, amuses me.

B: "Honey I'm home, and I brought dinner!"

A: "Please don't tell me there's trout on the granite"

B: "it's not trout"

A: stewing silence

B: "What? I'll clean up after!"

A: "It's granite, you dolt! It's naturally porous!"

B: "...eh, it'll give it some character."

Hannamey Headcanons

@bapydemonprincess requested some Hannamey headcanons for an OTP ask meme; my answers are included below!

I'm assuming that we're in a more auspicious version of the Season 2 verse where O!Ciel wins and stays human, although Alois eventually dies and leaves Hannah free to pursue her love in peace.

Pre-relationship

2. What was their first impression of each other?

Mey experienced a full bi panic when she first laid eyes on Hannah in that seductive black dress. The maid didn't recognize her feelings at the time, but she had a crush. Although Hannah didn't show it, the comely young maid caught her eye straightaway. The demonness was quietly amused by how taken Mey Rin was with her; Hannah knows exactly what kind of effect she tends to have on the sapphics >:3. Due to her devilish instincts, she sensed that Mey had a tragic past, and that she'd sent many souls to an early grave (the act of killing tends to "mark" the spirit in ways some demons can perceive), which piqued her curiosity. 4. Who felt romantic feelings first?

Mey Rin! She tends to fall fast and hard in romantic relationships. As a demon, Hannah took longer to acknowledge her growing attraction for the maid as something other than carnal desire. 5. Did either of them try to resist their feelings?

Both of them did, to an extent. Mey Rin was distraught because she knew she shouldn't harbor romantic feelings for someone who served an enemy of young master, while Hannah, after becoming acquainted with the pain of grief through Luka's death, was none too keen on being entangled in an intimate relationship with a human. Love could not be suppressed for long, however... >:3

General

2. Did they have an official first date? If so, what was it like?

Sort of. Their first few trysts occurred under the cover of nightfall, in the woods near the Phantomhive manor. That way, Mey Rin wouldn't have to risk a visit to the Trancy estate, and Hannah was sufficiently far away from the grounds to avoid Sebastian detecting her. However, their first proper date took place when the Phantomhive servants went on a trip to London. Mey Rin split off from the rest of the group to have a rendezvous with Hannah at a little cafe. They both started off a bit awkwardly (Mey was a bundle of nerves and Hannah felt uncharacteristically shy), but once the conversation got going, the bubbly, smiling maid of Phantomhive soon drew Hannah out of her shell. The demonness bought Mey a plateful of the tastiest pastries on the menu; of course, Hannah didn't eat or drink anything herself, but dear flustered Mey was too caught up in the moment to notice. When it was time for Mey to rejoin the other servants, Hannah walked her part of the way back, and the two held hands. >w< 3. What was their first kiss like?

Mey Rin bid Hannah goodbye after one of the demon's nocturnal visits, but they both lingered, neither wanting to be the first one to leave the secluded forest spot. Hannah took an indecisive step towards Mey Rin. Then she tenderly cupped the maid's face in her hands, bent down, and kissed her. When they parted, she whispered a simple "Good night" before disappearing among the trees, leaving Mey Rin red-faced and trembling. The maid dreamily stumbled through the next day, grinning and tripping on air. The demonness wore no perfume, but she smelt of petrichor, and a whiff of the earth after it rains never fails to remind Mey Rin of that first kiss. 7. Who takes the lead in social situations?

It depends. Hannah is melancholy, withdrawn, and secretive, while Mey Rin tends to be cheerful and outgoing in environments where she feels secure. However, if Mey Rin is nervous or unsure of herself, Hannah will take the lead in order to spare her lover the anxieties that come with prolonged social interactions. She'll gently pat Mey Rin's back or hold her hand to help the maid stay calm. 8. Who gets jealous easier?

Hannah. Demons jealously guard the souls they hold dear, and are very protective of their mates. If Hannah catches someone trying to make a move on her woman, she'll either wrap an arm around Mey Rin's waist and hold her close, or step between Mey and the (real or imagined) rival...giving them a deadly glare that makes the bravest heart quail. She bares her fangs and lets her demonic essence show, her long hair writhing like Medusa's serpents, until the interloper beats a hasty retreat. However, after a few conversations with Mey Rin on the subject, Hannah learns to calm down a little. 9. Who whispers inappropriate things in the other's ear?

Under normal circumstances, I don't think either of them is given to making crass remarks. Hannah prefers subtle innuendos--double entendres or inside jokes that no one but Mey Rin will understand. She'll smirk knowingly when she catches Mey Rin's longing glances at her cleavage (causing the maid to turn into a blushing, incoherent mess). Mey Rin gets a little bolder when she's tipsy; she'll climb into Hannah's lap and whisper about all the things she hopes the demon will do to her when they're alone. Shortly thereafter, Hannah finds an excuse to leave the party early with her lover so that she can make good on Mey Rin's suggestions. ;)

Love

1. Who said "I love you" first?

Mey Rin! She gave Hannah a small gift (a little embroidery piece of an owl), and when she saw how stunned the Trancy maid was at the gesture, Mey Rin blurted out, "Why do you look so surprised? You know I love you, yes I do!" She was mortified by her outburst and slapped her hands over her mouth, but Hannah just laughed and gave her a warm hug. 2. What are their primary love languages?

physical touch and acts of service, with quality time being a close second. Like most demons, Hannah views language as a tool for manipulation--in her mind, actions speak far louder than words when it comes to revealing a lover's true intentions. And since Mey Rin spent most of her childhood and young adulthood deprived of meaningful connections with others, she craves small intimacies like having the demonness brush her hair or hold her when she needs comforting. 4. How often do they cuddle/engage in PDA?

Very often! They're extremely snuggly in private. Mey loves to sit in Hannah's lap or rest her head against the demon's bosom, and Hannah dotes on her human. They have to be cautious about overt PDA in the Victorian period, but no one will look twice if two very good lady friends stroll arm-in-arm together... 8. Who's better at comforting the other?

Mey Rin is a little better at this because she's naturally warm and empathetic. However, Hannah has a quiet, reassuring presence, and she learns to tell when Mey Rin is feeling sad or vulnerable and needs a little cuddling. 10. Do they prefer verbal or physical affection?

As explained above, physical affection! 12. What kind of nicknames do they call each other?

Hannah calls Mey Rin "beloved," her flower, or her little princess; Mey Rin is initially hesitant to speak so familiarly with an ancient, powerful demon, but she'll sometimes call Hannah "honey," "love," or Chinese terms of endearment.

Domestic Life

1. If they get married, who proposes?

Demons' concepts of mating bonds aren't the same as our ideas about marriage, so it never occurred to Hannah to make a formal proposal. But one day, Mey Rin wistfully confessed that she would love to be Hannah's wife, if society were more open-minded about that sort of thing. The demonness couldn't bear to see her human sad, so she used her powers to make a pretty engagement ring (amethyst set in gold) to give to Mey shortly after this conversation. If they couldn't have an official ceremony, then damn it, they'd make their own. 2. What's the wedding like? Who attends?

It's held in the Phamtomhive garden, among the roses (Sebastian and Hannah reached an uneasy truce after Alois's death), and all the Phantomhive servants attend. The triplets are also there to assist with the ceremony, strewing flower petals, carrying the ladies' wedding trains, and so on (my headcanon is that they're babey demons who serve as Hannah's subordinates). Lizzy, Sieglinde, and Ran Mao are Mey Rin's bridesmaids. Both Mey and Hannah wear beautiful dresses (pink and purple, respectively). Instead of having a religious official preside over the ceremony, the ladies exchange vows that they wrote for each other. 4. Do they have any pets?

Oh yes! Hannah sometimes takes in injured wild animals to nurse back to health, like a fox kit that got its paw stuck in a trap, or a robin that broke its wing, so they soon have a smol menagerie on their hands. 8. How do they celebrate holidays?

Mey Rin loves holidays like Halloween and the Chinese New Year, so Hannah learns about the associated customs and traditions to help her wife celebrate. For events like Halloween, they'll coordinate costumes (one year, they both dressed up as witches), and save up lots of candy to give to the local kids. Hannah uses her demon powers to add spooky touches to their home, like magical floating candles and ghostly shadows that appear in the windows when someone passes by. Mey Rin gets a huge kick out of it! 10. Who's the better cook?

Hannah. When you've existed for millenia, you pick up a few skills here and there, such as navigating your way around a kitchen. ;) She loves spoiling Mey with her favorite treats. 11. Who likes to dance?

They both do, though Hannah is usually the one to ask Mey to join her on the dance floor.

[earnestly-endlessly]

what about your favourite cherik fics of all time? (:

Dear anon, I am so sorry for the delay. I’ve been meaning to put this list for about a week now, but I feel as if I’m missing some fics. Most of these are fandom favourites and might not come as any surprise, but these are my all time favourite fics that I’ve probably read more than once and more than twice. I tried to keep a wide variety of fics, including both one-shots and multi-chapters as well as different genres. I hope you enjoy these fics as much as I do.

Charles lives in the unceasing glare of the public spotlight, yet keeps his sexual orientation a closely held secret, afraid he could lose his throne and force his deeply troubled younger sister into a role that would crush her. Erik, journalist and world traveler, has been a loner most of his life; he has little patience for closet cases. But a chance meeting in Kenya brings these two opposites together and sets in motion a love affair that will challenge the British monarchy – and their most deeply held beliefs about who they are, and who they should be.

Continuing Education – aesc and spicedpiano

Summary: To his students, Erik Lehnsherr is despotic and terrifying. To his department head, he’s the brilliant young researcher who abandoned his prestigious job overnight, moving across the country to join MIT’s faculty. But to Charles Xavier, he is a contradiction. As Erik and Charles settle into their new roles as colleagues, their professional rivalry starts to spill over into the personal.

Naturally he ends up sitting in in the class, where Professor Lehnsherr mistakes him for a student. It’s really too bad Erik has such a strict policy against dating students. It’s also too bad Erik doesn’t seem to know how to use Google.

So it’s obviously the talk of the office when Erik is being made to go to the company party and he’s bringing his husband.

So when he meets Charles, brilliant and lovely Charles who is more popularly known amongst the mortals as Persephone, and feels the promise of something wonderful that could make his eternally doomed existence infinitely more bearable... you can bet all your drachmas Erik's not going to let Charles go any fucking time soon.

The first time Charles sneaks up on him wearing no metal, it triggers him and he reacts instinctively, with violence. … Erik discovers why Charles understands him so well: he was once used in experiments as well, experiments run by his own family, and in one of them, he lost his voice, so he uses his telepathy to communicate.

I'd like to see a completely straight!Charles, out of pure love and care of Erik, initiate a romantic relationship with him. It can be because he wishes to give Erik something positive in his life or because he thinks it might help change Erik's mind about Shaw, the reason is up to author. Also, while Charles finds intimacy with Erik strange and awkward, he does enjoy the new, non-romantic layers that have developed in their relationship.

Jaune: *blushing* s-so that means...

Yang: i would love to be your girlfriend.

Jaune: r-really?

Yang: *nods*

Jaune: okay...i-i’m really happy...j-just give me a moment so i can- *passes out*

Ruby: JAUNE!! *kneels besides him* WAKE UP!! DON’T WALK TOWARDS THE LIIIIGHT!!!

Weiss: are you really going to date him, as like, your first boyfriend ever?

Yang: why not?

Weiss: yang, he’s an avid nerd, he’s always talking about x-ray and vav, he has no motor coordination, he’s short, ugly and is scraggly as a stick, why would you even consider this idea?

Yang: He’s a nice friend, and i think he would do a great boyfriend.

Weiss: *sigh* it's your funeral, im not going to say anything about it.

Yang: careful weiss, you’ll end up eating your words like this.

Weiss: i highly doubt that.

*on the beach ten years later*

Ruby: WEISS!! *tackles weiss*

Weiss: LET GO YOU DOLT!!

Ruby: NO!! I MISSED YOU!!!

Blake: let her breathe ruby.

Ruby: *pouts* okay... *lets her go*

Weiss: *sighs getting up and wiping the sand out of her* five years, i’ve been out for only five years and this is what happens when i get back?

Ruby: *still pouting* you shouldn’t have picked a college so far away from us.

Yang: well, at least you had the decency to show up in our family barbecue.

Weiss: it was the only opportunity i had, final exams will start next month so i need so relax a bit before digging back in the studies.

Yang: wow, you learned how to relax! Are you sure you’re really weiss?

Weiss: shut up you idiot!

Blake: it's her, absolutely.

Ruby: who is it?

Weiss: neptune.

Ruby: your boyfriend?

Weiss: ex-boyfriend, caught him cheating on me a month ago.

Yang: wow...it must be tough, i'm sorry for you ice queen.

Weiss: *sigh* don’t be, i knew i shouldn’t trust him. Men are all the same, you can’t trust any of them.

Yang: nah, not every man is like that.

Weiss: really? So you never had to deal with an asshole of a boyfriend before?

Yang: nope.

Weiss: so you never really had any problems at all? Wait, forget about it, you used to date jaune when we were kids so of course you had problems.

Yang: i actually never really had any problems with him.

Weiss: are you serious right now? Just the fact that you used to date him already counts as several problems.

Yang: not actually, jaune was always the perfect boyfriend. He was really shy in the beginning but he got a lot better with the time.

Weiss: forgive me if it's hard for me to believe in that.

Yang: it's okay ice queen, every group of friends needs their sceptic one right?

Weiss: *rolls her eyes* right...i never really asked you, but how did you two break up? Was it long after i went to college?

Yang: *grins* who said anything about me and jaune breaking up?

Weiss: wait...don’t tell me you’re still dating him.

Yang: okay, then i won’t tell you that i’ve been in a happy and healthy relationship with him for the last ten years.

Weiss: ...i can’t believe in you, how did you managed to stand besides that short, ugly and scraggly idiot for so long.

Yang: because i really love him, and well...the fact that he's not so short, scraggly or ugly anymore does help a lot.

Weiss: what do you mean with tha-

Jaune: *hugs yang from behind* hey there sunshine.

Yang: hey there ladykiller. *turns around kissing him*

Jaune: sorry for the late, my sisters were trying to convince my dad to get a new grill and throw the old rusty one away.

Yang: it's okay, i don’t mind.

Jaune: ...weiss? Its you? It's been awhile, how are you?

Weiss: *frozen staring at the tall, handsome and defined blonde wearing swimming trunks, a tank shirt and standing before her* w-who are you?

Jaune: it's me, jaune. You don’t remember me?

Weiss: o-of course i remember you! But when did you got so...so...

Yang: *with a grin* Hot? Handsome? Stunning? Sexy?

Weiss: *blushing* tall.

Jaune: *sheepishly* i think it came along with the age, i didn’t noticed until yang pointed it out.

Weiss: *still blushing* h-how didn’t you noticed that!? Anyone can see it clearly but you only noticed when your girlfriend pointed it out!?

Yang: ex-girlfriend ice queen.

Weiss: w-what!? Didn’t you just said that you and him were in a healthy relationship!?

Yang: and we are, but im not his girlfriend anymore *grins showing her a diamond ring* i’m his bride.

Weiss: ......YOU’RE WHAT!?!?

Yang: i actually wanted to talk to you about this, our marriage is going to happen in about seven months, and i wanted you to be one of my bridesmaids since blake already is my maid of honor.

Weiss: ......i-i really don’t know what to say.

Jaune: just accept it, yang really wanted you to be one of her bridesmaids.

Weiss: i’ll think about it, its too much information for my brain to process in such a small amount of time.

Jaune: take your time, you have seven months to think in a answer.

Weiss: r-right.

Jaune: now if you excuse me, sun challenged me to an surf competition and i need to show him who’s the king of the beach.

Yang: okay, i’ll be cheering for you.

Jaune: thanks sunshine.

Yang: no prob handsome *leaning against his chest* now be sure to win okay? If you do, then you can be sure that the title of ‘king of the beach’ isn’t the only reward you’ll gain today~ *winks*

Jaune: *blushes slightly* okay, then you better let this reward ready, cause i'm not losing to anyone right now.

Yang: thats what i wanted to hear *slaps his asscheek* now go there and show him who’s boss!

Jaune: yes ma’am! *takes off tank shirt and bolts towards the water*

Weiss: *blushing and staring at his perfect chest and abs*

Yang: *chuckles*

Weiss: *blushing* w-what’s so funny!?

Yang: it's nothing, i'm just thinking about a stuck up girl i met several years ago, and that always said a lot of bad things about jaune, but now she’s drooling all over him. Isn’t that funny?

Weiss: *blushing more* IT'S NOT!!!

Yang: ready to eat your words now? I said you would regret, didn't i?

Weiss: SHUT UP!!! I DON’T CARE ABOUT THAT BIG STUPID IDIOT!!

Yang: hey! Jaune is not stupid nor idiot *with a perverted grin* although i will admit, he is big reeeally big.

Weiss: *atomic red* i hate you...so fucking much...

Yang: love you too ice queen, but now please take your eyes out of my future husband’s abs, the only one allowed to ogle at them is me.

Weiss: *angry embarrassed noises*

[pinkcake]

I hope you'll get good results on your exam! ♡ for the otp ask, may I know more about sophia and seb? :)

thank you aah! i actually did well ~ not my best grade ever but it was a B so not awful either, and it was a difficult class! 🌷 sorry to make you wait for a reply ~ time for some sebphia! 🌻

who made the first move ~in a way, both did ~ sophia had a plan to make the move, as sebastian has a tendency to get caught up with his work and doesn’t have a lot of energy to put into social interaction afterward…! on spirit’s eve, sophia asked sebastian to accompany her through the haunted maze… she planned to act scared and grab onto his arm throughout the maze, but as it turned out, she didn’t need to act at all. the wizard outdid himself that year and she ended up grabbing onto seb’s arm, hiding her face in his back, holding his shoulders and making him walk ahead of her nearly every step of the way… darn it, she’d thought, this didn’t turn out as cute and flirty as i thought it would. too scary, rasmodius! soon, they exited the maze, sophia with a huge golden pumpkin in her arms. “thanks for protecting me through there, sebastian… maybe you should play as the warrior in the solarian chronicles — you’re like a knight!” she grinned. sebastian smiled back, a bit mischievous, and made his own daring move, “do i get a kiss from the princess as thanks for my bravery?” 

who said ‘i love you’ first ~sebastian. sophia was upset after attending monthly therapy in zuzu city because of a relapse. she stayed with seb that night, curled up in his bed, tear tracks still on her face. “i’m sorry i’m difficult,” she said quietly. he spooned her tight from behind, pressing his nose into her hair as she shook. “i love you. that won’t change, even if you turn into some monster, which you won’t. but i love you no matter what. we’ll get past this.” 

how often they fight ~ they don’t have true fights very often, but emotional discussions happen all the time. 

whose big spoon/little spoon ~ seb is the big spoon, sophia is the little spoon! (fun fact - all my farmers are little spoons, probably because i’ve projected little bits of myself onto each of them, and i’m incredibly short + have a very tall bf so i’m always little spoon lol) 

what their nicknames are for each other ~ sophia calls seb “frog prince” and “honey”, seb calls sophia “shooting star” and “baby” 

who’s the better cook ~ sophia! sebastian can’t really cook except for a few of his favorite dishes, but he contributes to the household in other ways… ~ 

their song(s) ~ ghostin - ariana grande loving is easy - rex orange countygoodnight baby - tarunemidnight city - m83let me in - gabrielle aplin

who remembers their anniversaries ~they both remember! sophia is very active in writing things down on her calendars and sebastian is secretly nostalgic and sentimental :3 

their favorite thing to do together (besides sex) ~mining! sebastian is actually really good at combat and makes a great partner for sophia will traversing the mines. they love the sense of adventure and make a great team in finding gemstones and fighting monsters! 

who ‘wears the pants’ in the relationship ~ neither really…? sophia makes money but she’s a bit anxiety-prone and looks to seb a lot to make the big decisions, as he’s older and a bit better at those types of things. i guess i would give this to seb, actually! let’s just say he takes charge! 

how they would get engaged ~just before fall ended for good, seb took sophia out on a ride to the cliff overlooking the city — a ritual they’d begun together shortly after becoming a couple. he still hadn’t completely quit smoking, and despite sophia not being very fond of the habit, she kept quiet and instead adorably rambled about how annoying the new taxes were and how tired her new medication made her and how panini wasn’t liking his new organic cat food and how pretty the skyline looked. his girlfriend stands a few feet ahead of him, looking out over the edge while he leans against his motorcycle. gaining his courage hearing her voice, sebastian stomps out his dulled cigarette after one last long swig of smoke and reaches into his pocket. getting down on one knee, “soph.” she pauses in her rambles, turning around while pulling her coat tighter around her small frame, and her smile falls when she sees him, palm cupping around her mouth. he swallows, maintaining his calm and collected expression despite being more nervous than ever before. “… marry me?” the usually talkative farmer is silent, body tense and eyes wide. damn… maybe i should have said more. should’ve told her how much i love her and want to be with her, or something. what a lame proposal. maybe i should just start over? before his mind can run anymore, he’s toppled to the dirt in a hug, a teary-eyed and beaming sophia saying, “of course i will, dummy, you don’t even have to ask!” 

what their wedding would be like ~as it is the first marriage ceremony in pelican town in a literal decade, the valley would come together and make it a pretty special occasion when they hear about the engagement. emily made decorations and ribbons in white and dusty purple and revived the old wedding arch, evelyn made pretty flower arrangements of white peonies, wisteria, and fairy roses, gus making dinner and setting up a banquet and table settings in the community center, sam setting up a band stage, dance floor, and planning out playlists for a reception after dinner at the community center, haley helping sophia with hair, dress, and makeup, and robin and demetrius handing out all the invitations around town. after sophia and sebastian had exchanged handwritten vows, kissed the bride (and groom), became husband and wife, signed lewis’ official marriage papers, tied that knot tight, partied like it was a brand new century, drank a lot less than everyone else at the reception but still enough to feel warm, cuddly, and smiley, they made it back to the farmhouse with sebastian carrying his bride through her very own door that was now theirs. 

how many kids they’ll have ~ they currently have two: their oldest son levi, and younger daughter felicity… they always said they’d stop at two, but recently, sophia’s had baby fever and sebastian loves being a father, so… we’ll have to see!

Re the Charioteer Andrew Epic-

My problem is I am greedy and my eyes are bigger than my writing abilities and I want to include EVERY POSSIBLE THING

Because the thing is, Mary Renault accidentally created the most interesting possible character in Andrew. She had no way of knowing when she wrote him that every identity that defines him would go through an axial shift within his lifetime, but they DID and I desperately desperately want to explore that.

Like, let’s start with the obvious- Andrew Is Gay. This is tumblr, so I only need to sketch the outlines of the massive shifts in public attitude towards homosexuality, but even just looking prior to 1967, when homosexuality is decriminalized in the UK- like, did you know a group of Friends published “Towards a Quaker View Of Sex”, a defense of homosexuality, in 1963?

And speaking of Quakerism, like, it is IMPOSSIBLE to understate how deeply they were impacted by the ideological shift in Christianity around the mid-century. The movement was having a revival around the time Andrew was born, the Evangelical-Liberal split split deepened and formalized in the mid 40s and mid 60s, and by the end of the 20th century over half of all Liberal Quakers wouldn’t consider themselves Christian.

That’s not even getting INTO the fact that Lewis Benson, a Quaker theologian who did some really great development in response to the increasing tension between the conservative and liberal factions over reactions to the ecumenical and liturgical movements and one of my personal faves, was lecturing and writing and published his seminal work in the late 60s, and if you think I’m NOT trying to figure out how to work a thinly fictionalized version of him into this story than honey you don’t know what self indulgent means!!!

And to top it all off are the radical post war changes to English society and global culture!!! And the Cold War!!! And nuclear disarmament and civil rights and and and and!!!!

And I also have an epic fucking Bunny/Andrew love story because I love the contrast between the two, in the novel they represent polar opposites of earth and heaven, and they’re not my usual “OTP type” so they’d push me out of my comfort zone, and I love the idea of Andrew, at the cusp of embracing his identity, exploring gay spaces on the pretense of tracking down Bunny to apologize, and of course when he finally finds him Bunny needles him relentlessly but Andrew’s feeling bold and flirts with him and they have some kind of deeply awkward hook up. But Andrew being himself decides the only moral reconciliation to this is that they’re married, which Bunny ain’t having, and Andrew gets all Hosea about it, but they orbit each other for 30 years and grow (Khalil Gibran On Love And Marriage to reference shit I been seeing recently!!) and Bunny challenges Andrew and calls him on being detached from his communities and not fully embracing things, and Andrew listens because he can take a 1000 foot up look at everything but he can’t take that perspective in Bunny’s arms, and Andrew is a steady place for Bunny through a thousand and one changes and challenges, and you know they reunite with Laurie and Ralph at the end of all this and I’ve got too many ideas to pick from...

So basically what I’m saying is I want to write about my fave going through 70% of the major changes of the mid-century when even just one would take a book to explain fully because I am greedy!!

Space Dementia

Hi, my dear friends. I got something very good for you. This is the beginning of my sloppy translation of my fanfic that you've been waiting. Sorry for silly mistakes, that meet in the text. I translated alone. So... I hope you enjoy.

OTP: Jennifer Wright/Robert Grey Genres: Romance, Angst, Drama, Detective, Psychology, Hurt/comfort, Humdrum, Horror, AU, Friendship  Summary: She thought she had found salvation in him, but she didn't know she was at the mercy of a horrible monster who had own plans for her. //// Chapter I. 2007, Pennsylvania, Philadelphia Stood may sunny day, heralding a warm summer. The blue sky was absolutely clear and the cool wind was sneaking into the small children's room. The curtains swayed from the easy impulses, sometimes forcing the fifteen-year-old girl to swear. They bothered her to collect items from red chest, who was standing right by the window made it difficult to find something very important and valuable. To find the room was a mess: everywhere littered with toys, crayons and school books interspersed with items of clothing. Now the reigning mess did not bother the hostess of the room at all because she's late. Parents waited in the car, putting before the fact that if is going to take longer than necessary, they will go to  grandmother without her. But the girl couldn't go on the road without his beloved soft toy-bear, which has always been with her almost from the cradle. "Jennifer!" a stern voice was heard from her mother at the foot of the stairs in the corridor. "I'm coming!" shouted in the answer girl, finally finding the necessary and the most expensive thing from the entire his room. She hugged the bear cub tightly and threw her backpack over her shoulders and ran out of the room.

The door to the house slammed, and she enthusiastically jumped into the big blue BMW. Father, glancing in the rearview mirror, smiled at her daughter and started the engine. His wife constantly looking at the clock. She was very unhappy that they were already half an hour late. Dyed hair dark red waves falling on her sharp shoulders, slightly obscuring an oval face, which wore the grimace of discontent. Blue eyes constantly examined the interior of the car, as if not knowing what to stop. The woman pursed her full lips, fingering something in her hands. Little Jennifer always thought her mother was very beautiful, even when she was not in the mood. Although the girl never saw that Mary was happy. As if she's something has long been disappointed and now was upset with the whole world and their own lives. She is always cold treated her daughter like she was her non-native. Unlike Chester, the girl's father. He enjoyed spending time with Jenni, telling stories and tales. The black-haired man always tried to devote time to the daughter. His brown eyes radiated the most sincere love and kindness. This couldn't hide even the glasses, which he began to wear recently. Chester was quiet and peaceful man, he rarely raised his voice at anyone and kept all the anger in yourself. As soon as Mary throw another tantrum, he tried to silently listen to her and understand what was wrong. Probably because of his soldier's endurance and nerves of steel their marriage and Mary has still not disintegrated. Recently, however, the wife began to behave strangely, and something inside tells Chester that he's going to lose her. Jen never meddled with her parents relationship because she thought it was a personal matter. They'll figure it out fine without her help. Moreover, the girl didn't want after her words catching unhappy, angry and full of reproaches her mother's eyes. So now she turned to the window, inserting headphones into her ears to isolate herself from the outside world. Most of all she was like her father. She had the same dark hair, freckled face and neat nose. Plump lips and blue eyes, the girl got from her mother. Character she also largely took over from the father. Jennifer showed kindness and responsiveness, tried never to be rude, but sometimes she's very stubborn. The car moved smoothly from the place, going from Sunny Philadelphia to the North of the country, to the small town of Derry, located in Maine. The road promised to be long. In a way it is necessary to make some stops to fill a tank with gasoline, and also everybody to have a snack and to gain strength for the further road. Jennifer, as she's can remember, every summer went to Derry for two weeks to visit her grandmother. Her house was located closest to the city center, where almost no one was walking. The girl truly did not understand why parents doing this to her every year. No, of course, she loved to chat with her grandmother, who was always in stock a lot of stories. However, Jen continued to not understand parents until she was thirteen. It was then that she realized that all this time they were trying to spend alone with each other and to establish relations. Now at fifteen, sitting in the back seat of the car and vaguely hearing the curses of mother, Jen was really hoping for these two weeks, they will be able to love each other again. But with every trip to Derry for the last three years, she believed it less and less. Plunged into her own thoughts and music in her headphones, Jennifer closed eyes. The car began to seasick her, and the tenacious paws of Morpheus dragged the girl into the sweet realm of dreams.

* * *  "Wake up, sleeping beauty," the gentle whispered of father, and Jen slowly opened her eyes and smiled. “Get up, Jenni. We're in Derry.” The girl nodded in response, getting out of the car and taking the backpack. She looked around, finding herself on the broad street of little Derry. Unlike Philadelphia, here was cloudy weather. The sky was overcast with gray clouds, and the treetops swayed continually in the icy wind. The girl shivered from the cold, deciding quickly to go to grandma's house. No matter how many times Jennifer was in Derry, she never liked it here. First, there was always no one to walk with. She didn't understand why this small and seemingly cozy town, so little children. And young here was a bit. All at once went to the big cities, to enter universities. Nobody wanted to sit in that hole. Jen with confidence can tell that this place is specially created for the elderly like her grandmother. Here, nothing ever happens, everyone knows each other and spread unpleasant gossip. In short, a real village, thought the girl to herself, looking around. "Jenny, go to the house!" shouted grandmother, already meeting its on the threshold of. "Hi, grandma!" Jennifer exclaimed joyfully, rushing into the arms of her beloved Granny. “I miss you. Are you?” "I am also insanely missed you, sweetie," smiled the woman and stroked her granddaughter's dark hair. “You're all grown up, Jen.” “Quit, granny.” "Let's go for a walk today in the supermarket, and then go on the swing?" she chuckled, suggesting a routine ritual she and Jen had always performed. The dark-haired girl nodded in response, paying attention to the parents who had left the house. Mary folded the bag of food they had brought with them into a small black bag. She serious looked around the whole area, as if looking for someone among the trees and bushes. Then the woman turned her attention to her mother Christine, smiling stiffly. "I put all the food in the fridge. Money on your desk, mom," cold said Mary. “If anything happens, call me.” "I know what to do, honey," Christine snorted, hugging Jennifer tightly and smiling at her. “We'll be fine as usual.” At this point, the house was left by Chester, also smiling. He didn't want to leave his daughter for a long time in Derry, because it is unlikely that anything will change in the two weeks of her absence at home: Mary was adamant and seems to be going to file for divorce. The woman approached her daughter, pulling an unnatural smile on her face again. It made Jennifer uncomfortable. She was too used to the stern expression on her mother's face. "Behave yourself, Jennifer," her mother said quietly, patting her cheek with a cold hand. "Bye." "Bye, mom," Jen quietly squeezed out. "Don't let her go anywhere, Mrs. Wheeler," said Chester, crouching on his knees in front of the girl. In the answer she smiled. "I've heard strange things about Derry." "Tales of clowns again, dad?" Jennifer smiled, rolling her eyes. "I don't believe in them. Especially since I spend all my time with grandmother. Too boring here." "It'll be all right, Chester," Mrs. Wheeler assured him. Chester smiled and hugged daughter. She snuggled into him, not wanting to part with him for two long weeks. The man released her and walked to the car where Mary already waiting him. Dad waved to his daughter, sitting in the BMW and starting the engine. Christine and Jen watched as the blue car headed away from Derry, back to Philadelphia. The girl sighed, feeling like every minute longing for the native home, for mom and dad becoming more and more. * * *  In Derry the storm began again. Heavy rain poured outside the window, spoiling Jennifer's mood. Today she wanted to go for a walk with her grandmother around the city again, see all the few sights for the hundredth time and go to the supermarket for groceries. But the stupid rain ruined everything. Somewhere high in the sky lightning flashed, and there was a deafening thunder. In the living room TV for a moment ceased to catch a signal. Grandmother swore loudly, making Jen burst out laughing. Getting up from the sofa, an elderly woman came to the old ruin and knocked. The girl sighed, continuing to listen to her grandmother's curses and look out the window. Drops slowly dripping down the glass, dissolving into each other. The wide road was completely flooded, and the dirty water ran into a small storm drain, which was located at the bottom of the curb. “What's clown, granny?” suddenly Jennifer asked, continuing to mesmerize dark storm drain on the opposite side of the street. “Ah?” surprised grandmother. "Well... Dad said something was going on in Derry. He told me about some clown. Weird fairy tale. I vaguely remember", said girl, frowning. "I was five or seven." "No wonder that you don't remember." Jennifer was immediately distracted from the contemplation of the rain and sat down beside Christine on the couch. Grandma hugged her granddaughter with one hand over his shoulder, the other has lowered the volume on the TV. The woman sighed, sinking into his memories, and slowly start: "This clown appeared here when I was about twenty-five years old. Maybe a little less. It was during this period that children began to disappear. A lot of children are missing, and no one could find them", with each word, the elderly woman went into herself more and more. "The madman who disguised himself as a clown only got caught by the police once. But he escaped. Almost immediately. Many years have passed since then. I was hoping that psycho was dead." "He back in Derry?" cautiously asked Jen. "Yes. And I heard that from you. You told me you saw him waving at you from the bushes." said the grandmother, than scared girl. Suddenly Jennifer was confused, plunging into her own memories…

* * *  In Derry came one of the few sunny summer days, and Jennifer, of course, persuaded her grandmother to go for a walk. They reached the main square, where many people always gathered. On the playground the kids were playing, which was quite a bit. Jen sprinted off to the Playground while her grandmother crouched down to rest after a long road. The left leg was treacherously sick. Jennifer happily jumped on the free swing to the face to trees and bushes, enclosed by an iron grating. There, behind the fence, was a small nature reserve Derry, and there were forbidden to go. On the grid could be seen a yellow plate with the inscription: "Private protected area. For illegal entry - a fine of 1000 $". The swing rose high in the air, and the girl was enjoying this wonderful feeling she flies. Such a clear and blue sky could be reached with your feet, which inspired even more. Seemed, even a bit, and Jennifer indeed going to fly. She fancied herself a bird, until she again turned her attention to the fenced trees. Among the bushes could see something white, and Jen, distracted from their fantasies, tried to see a strange spot. Behind the bars stood a man in a white clown costume. Red buttons-pompons did not look ridiculous, but rather gave a special charm to lush clothes. White collar, the same white makeup on the face and red hair. The lips, painted in red, is immediately stretched in a welcoming smile, it was worth the girl to draw a clown's attention. He waved to the girl, then motioned to him. Jennifer stopped the swing, wondering if she should approach the clown behind bars. The girl frowned and showed the clown a finger, indicating she'd be back in a minute. Clown subtly smiled in anticipation, but that baby hasn't seen. "Grandma, can I go play with the clown?" running up to grandmother, loudly asked Jen. "Which clown?" woman immediately distracted from their crosswords. "Well, he's there, at the gate", she explained and turned to point a finger at the clown, who is there already, of course, was not. "Oh, he's probably gone. Pity!" "Let's go home, Jennifer", frowning and saying no more, her grandmother said sternly, and taking the girl by the hand, led her to the side of the house. The girl turned back, noticing that the clown was standing in the same place. He pouted angrily and wiped the nonexistent tears from his face. Jennifer was confused, thinking, that made the right decision. Otherwise, the grandmother raised the whole district on the ears… * * *  Two weeks visiting the grandma have passed for Jennifer unexpectedly quickly. She always found something to do: read books, in good weather, was walking with his grandmother in the bad watching TV with her, sometimes painted in your album. All the time the girl found something to do, and memories of that stupid meeting with a possible maniac Derry themselves out of my head. Again high in the sky the sun was shining and Jen first heard the birds singing, sitting on the veranda of the house. Grandma took out of the house on a tray of tea and cookies. The girl smiled at her when she sat down opposite and began to tell another story from his life. Christine traveled around the world a lot and saw a lot of things. She always had the opportunity to go from Derry to some metropolis to live in luxury, but she still remained in this backwater. Jennifer couldn't understand her. To which grandma replied that after many years Jen will understand it. Suddenly the girl was distracted from the story grandmother, noticing how the house is approached from afar the familiar blue BMW. Jen was confused, because parents usually pick her up on Sunday, and today was only Friday. Grandmother also drew attention to the car, which has already stopped near the house. For wheel as and always was Chester. He turned off the engine and got out of the car. Jen instantly fell from her seat, running towards her father with cheers. Chester picked up the girl in his arms, kissing her on the cheek and squeezed. "Why are you here so early?" Jennifer was surprised, already being on the ground. "I'll tell you everything, kitten. But first I need to talk to your grandmother", calmly replied the father, and together they went to the house. "Mrs. Wheeler, can I have a word?" "Sure, Chester." smiled woman, rising and heading for the kitchen. The man followed her, asking Jen to sit in the living room. Girl nodded in response, not knowing what happened. Dad rarely talked to his grandmother about something serious, she thought to herself. And it usually didn't bode well. Jennifer frowned, including TV and starting to look for something interesting among a long list of channels. After a few minutes, the adults came back from the kitchen, and Jen immediately noticed how gloomy grandmother. It was as if she was plunged into some bad memories from her life, which made the girl feel uncomfortable. All her attention turned to father, who sat opposite her. "Jennifer, listen to me carefully", quietly asked Chester, hard sighing. Girl sat down on the edge of the sofa with her hands folded in her lap. She was preparing to hear anything, if only not very bad. But severe and focused expression of papa's face she understood that it happened something serious. And it hit him really hard. Because he has always the cheerful face, but now it showing no emotion. "Your mom... She left." dad started gently, and her eyes immediately glistened with tears. "We're divorced, sweetheart." "Where she left?" sobbed Jen. “I don’t know”, Chester shrugged his shoulders in confusion. "She's coming back, right? Yes, dad?" no longer holding back tears, hoping girl asked. "I don't think so, Jenni." Christine, who was watching them, sighed. Heart sank in pain, desperately trying to understand why her daughter left her family. The woman herself was ready to cry, seeing as Jen snuggled up to daddy. Inside the girl something painfully broke, and instead of love to the mother, which and so it was always cold, had formed a black abyss of hatred.

How I feel about this character

Josie is that elegant, well spoken lady I dreamed of growing up to be when I was a wee punk. She has mystery! A good heart! Golden. Ruffles. The noble eldest of her family, saving them from doom. I think its fair obvious I am heart eyes gaga over Josie. And she's a gossip! True story, my favorite kind of person. Tell me all the things. 

All the people I ship romantically with this character

Leliana and Josie is probs my favorite ship for Josie. Next would be the not romance with Blackwall. I don't think I have a specific Inquisitor romance for that i like. But imagining her with an ex carta dwarf lady makes my heart feel fluffy. Val may get a cousin.

My non-romantic OTP for this character

Also Leliana, i love their friendship? How they pick on Cullen and Cassandra. You know the shopkeepers cry in terror and joy when they arrive. Like yes a sale but oh the standard they demand.

My unpopular opinion about this character

I don't think I have one. Hm. 

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon 

I am actually good with her canon. A marriage would be nice in Trespasser. Oh that would be glorious. The flowers alone. 

Cullen

How I feel about this character

Cullen is. He is not my favorite normally. Fandom ruined him for me, #notsorry. Now. I do think he is a character with great potential. I also want that furry cloak thing. I need it.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

I dont have specific ship but there are a couple, as in literally 2, specific pairings that I read. But its more because I love friends writing then because I am googly eyed over noodle head. 

My non-romantic OTP for this character

Therapy. He needs it. Do they have lyrium anonymous? That's what he needs.

My unpopular opinion about this character

That is not a redemption arc. He definitely becomes more selective with his mage distrust/hate. But he doesn't really change from his all mages can't be trusted stance. And the templars were poor mistreated puppies! Yeah no they problematic to bud.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

Him interacting with now ex templars. Growth beyond the dogma and the addictions. It needed more. But kore isn't for boys who are pretty i guess 

Sera

How I feel about this character

Sera is a disaster and I love her. Sera is all of us who saw a qunari lady and also went woof. I like that she's nobody compared to most of your companions. She's a real people. Also eat the rich mentality is just yes. Throw them into the pit. And she brings the inquisitor in as a red jenny? Who else goes after this life, let's have another for you let's go. Her friendship is also so sweet? For all her friends, I don't think she gets friend friends until she's with the inquisition. Also, I totally get how she talks, train of thought is relatable. 

All the people I ship romantically with this character

Dagna!!!! They are just so damn cute. I am also partial to her and my Asa. 

My non-romantic OTP for this character

Iron Bull. Mayhem. I also love her and Blackwall. She gets him. He gets her. Dick jokes. 

My unpopular opinion about this character

She is perfect. And has a valid point. If there is a golden throne whats worse? An ass in it or it being empty? I also like that shes not an elfy elf. So many are doom gloom our lost cause. From like...over a thousand years ago. Can we grow pls

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

I want to be a wingman on a Sera and Dagna date. Let me set up my explosions are for bonding lesbians. 

Alistair

How I feel about this character

I was too old for Alistair when I first met him. He's a child. Literally. He's like 19. Thats a baby adult, the boy who didn't want to be king. Also i found this lone blossoming rose amongst the dead things so i took it..for being chantry raised he is not very understanding of miracles. And you gift him dolls. Why did duncan go oh yeah i'll take this one to probably die young. Like why dude. He could have left the chantry with alistair and been like okay here's 100 gold and go that way. You have a good sword arm, become a guard somewhere. Instead of feed the child blood... I also really hate how he treats Morrigan. Wtf man. And yes, she is mean back but to say he was inappropriate when they first met would be an understatement. I'd be a bitch to him to.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

No ships. Oops.

My non-romantic OTP for this character

Wynne, he needs a mother. So badly. He needs cookies and hugs and stories. He may not be a child by age, but definitely by maturity. 

My unpopular opinion about this character

Like. My whole ass opinion lol

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

I want him and Leliana to discuss that rose lol but i want alistair to grow a spine. He doesn't want to be king. His uncle treated him like shit, tell him no? Walk out on that king deal? Like thats barring sparing loghain bc he does sorta grow a pair then but abandons his duty that supposedly means so much. Why couldn't he have been like nah Anora is the queen why should i take her spot? That i don't want? 

Cassandra

How I feel about this character

I like that Cass is so Cass. Okay. She will fucking punch you in the face but also reads smut. I have found my people. She tries to right her wrongs, and the orders. She is also willing to eat her own words. She believes in people and goodness. While also maybe stabbing people. But she is also so naive? She believes Varric. Honey. Sweetie. He's full of shit and your full of shit meter is broken.

All the people I ship romantically with this character

I don't really have a ship for Cass. Bear with me here, she is married to her work. She believes in it with every fiber in her soul. If she had to choose between romance and what she felt called to, what was right? She would let go of the romance. Which is supported by canon if you romance her and she becomes divine. Love only in glances. The world needs saving after all. And for cass it won't ever stop needing to be saved.

My non-romantic OTP for this character

Cullen. She is a good influence on him, that he can do better if he tries, that he is better than he thinks. Also Dorian, their love of books would be a good start for a friendship. You know they read a lot of similar smut, especially if it's terrible. How else do you be mean to it.

My unpopular opinion about this character

I am angry she tried to murder my dwarf. We will go rounds lady. In her defense, I understand why she wanted to stove his head in lol and that's why I don't ship them. To antagonistic for me.

One thing I wish would happen / had happened with this character in canon.

I am pretty happy with her canon.

50 OTP Things (CarLee Edition)

I really needed to get my head back in the game, so it’s all under the cut! Hope y’all enjoy!

1.       Who is the early bird/ Who is the night owl?

Carley is the early bird, and Lee is the night owl. Though they both stay up quite late (or early, depending on how you want to look at it) because of work, Carley is up earlier than he is, as she likes to squeeze in a coffee and a quick morning jog to get her newspaper. Lee, however, can sleep for America.

2.       Who is the big spoon/ Who is the little spoon?

Lee is the big spoon, and Carley is the little spoon; which is pretty much self-explanatory. Carley is tiny compared to him, so she likes using him as an extra blanket when she feels down of just when she needs a cuddle

3.       Who hogs the cover/ Who loves to cuddle?

Carley hogs it, especially in the winter. It’s a running joke between them that Carley is ALWAYS cold, so she curls into a little burrito and sleeps like a baby, leaving Lee shivering in his boxers outside of the covers. But they’re both pretty big cuddlers, too.

4.       Who wakes the other one up with kisses?

It really depends on the occasion. If it’s Carley’s birthday, then he will. But if it’s Lee’s birthday, she will.

5.       Who usually has nightmares?

Carley has really bad night terrors at times, especially during stressful times in her life. The most recent was when she worried about their false-positive pregnancy test, and how Lee was taking everything (read my fanfic guys!)

6.       Who would have really deep emotional thoughts at the middle of the night/ Who would have them in the middle of the day? 

Carley would have them during the day most of the time, surprisingly enough, while Lee has them at night when everything is silent.

7.       Who sweats the small stuff?

Surprisingly, again, it’s Carley. Lee is more laid back and chill about stuff. One example is like, where the shower suddenly gave up on them, and they had to make do with washing in the sink for a couple days. Carley near on had a full-on panic attack, while Lee just chilled and told her that they couldn’t do anything until the boiler repairman came, so they’d be better off just biding time. It didn’t stop her worrying.

8.       Who sleeps in their underwear (or naked)/ Who sleeps in their pajamas?

Lee sleeps in his boxers, and only his boxers. And Carley sleeps in a tank-top and a pair of Lee’s baggier shorts. She also stole Lee’s old football jersey for the colder months, with a pair of sweatpants. However, once children come into the mix, he started wearing pyjama bottoms / lounge pants / sweatpants, only wearing a shirt for the winter.

9.       Who makes the coffee (or tea)?

Surprise, surprise; it’s Carley. She wakes up, has her coffee (also pours him a cup), and then goes for a jog while Lee gets his day started. So by the time he comes downstairs, his cup is just the right temperature to drink without scalding his tongue.

10.   Who likes sweet/ Who likes sour?

Carley has the sweet-tooth in the relationship, while Lee prefers stronger tastes. One example is that Carley’s drink is normally a sweet red wine, while Lee likes stronger stuff like Whiskey or beer.

11.   Who likes horror movies/ Who likes romance movies?

They both liked horror movies, with Carley only secretly watching all those trashy, romance-y chick-flicks while he was out with his brother or she was off sick from work (which has only happened a handful of times over their entire marriage)

12.   Who is smol/ Who is tol?

Smol – Carley / Tol - Lee

13.   Who is considered the scaredy cat?

Neither of them were really ‘scaredy cats’ when it came to the ZA. But smaller things? They were about even. Carley HATED spiders with a passion, and other creepy-crawlies, while Lee hated needles and anything to do with hospitals.

14.   Who kills the spiders?

That would be Lee. Except he didn’t “kill” them per-se. He told Carley he’d killed the spider, when in fact he’d caught it and put the little guy outside.

15.   Who is scared of the dark?

Neither. They actually liked it, truth be told. It was comforting for them to just lay together staring out into the darkness of their bedroom.

16.   Who is scared of thunderstorms?

Again; neither. It was relaxing for them. It wasn’t uncommon for them to share a bath during a storm.

17.   Who works/ Who stays at home?

Please, they both worked. There was no way in HELL that Carley wasn’t working. She outright stated multiple times throughout her childhood and teenage years that she didn’t want to be the ‘little housewife’ and that no man would stop her from being a journalist. So when her and Lee had started dating, she was worried about this attitude scaring him off, or him not liking it. However, she was relieved to find he was just as driven as her when it came to working, and they balanced each other out.

18.   Who is a cat person/ Who is a dog person?

Carley was literally the embodiment of a cat. She was perfectly content to curl up all day in her pyjamas with a good book or a trashy tv-show (after her morning jog, of course), while Lee was the embodiment of a dog, as he enjoyed being out, seeing everything he could, while brightening people’s days in doing so. He wouldn’t leave somewhere if he knew someone was upset, and would try to help them out In any way he could.

19.   Who loves to call the other one cute names?

Neither. They were never really into cute nicknames or pet names? They call each other the usual ‘married couple’ names like “honey”, but that’s it.

20.   Who is dominant/ Who is submissive?

Oh, oh-ho, wink wonk. Sexually it’s Lee who was more dominant, while Carley was more submissive (that’s not saying they didn’t mix things up though!). But out of the bedroom? It was less of a dom/sub thing they had, and more of a partnership. Neither was more dominant than the other.

21.   Who has an obsession (over anything)?

Does Lee’s interest in Civil War history count?

22.   Who goes all out for Valentine’s Day?

Neither. They didn’t really celebrate the holiday more than a card and making time for a nice dinner on the night. They didn't like to spend money on a holiday created primarily to make money.

23.   Who asks who out on the first date?

In some weird, second-hand way it was Carley who asked Lee out. She gave him her phone number, which gave him the green light to ask her out. They met up a week later, and boom; first date: Achieved.

24.   Who is the talker/ Who is the listener? 

Like I’ve said before, it was an even-keel. Carley ranted about work whenever she could, and so would Lee. Their relationship was less of a his/hers thing, and they worked as more of a team.

25.   Who wears the other ones clothes?

Carley stole Lee’s clothes ALL THE TIME, even though they were WAY too big for her, with his 6’2” frame, vs. her 5’3” stature. When they started a family, Carley would always steal Lee’s t-shirts before they bought her maternity clothes, and despite the maternity stuff being a lot prettier and better-fitting, she always went back to Lee’s stupid, tatty baseball t-shirt. She always blamed this for Clem liking baseball and sports more than dancing and singing.

26.   Who likes to eat healthy/ Who loves junk food?

Carley ate super healthily, but not 100% of the time. She was a firm believer in a treat staying as just a treat, while keeping her body in top condition. Lee, however, couldn’t have cared less. He ate balanced, but he wasn’t opposed to the idea of eating two pieces of junk food in one day.

27.   Who takes a long shower/ Who sings in the shower?

Neither, really. Unless, of course, they were sharing the shower. They were in and out within ten minutes every morning.

28.   Who is the book worm?

They both enjoyed curling up with a book, but Lee moreso than Carley, as he needed to constantly read new non-fiction books for his job, while Carley read and watched the news almost constantly, even on days off.

29.   Who is the better cook?

Carley, but only VERY slightly. When her and Lee started dating, neither could cook to save their lives. And though they both attempted to better their culinary abilities, it was only Carley that the lessons really worked out for. Neither of them meant for it to be the ‘woman cooks while man works’ situation, but simply by pure dumb luck it was the way things had worked out.

30.   Who likes long walks on the beach?

Both of them, though neither of them got to do it often, as they lived in the inner-suburbs, about an hour away from the coast. Once Clementine came along, they made a point to do it more often.

31.   Who is more affectionate?

Privately, it was equal. They liked to cuddle, kiss, snuggle up on the sofa, etc. But in public they stuck to holding hands, and brief pecks on the cheek. They didn’t really like to force their relationship onto the people around them.

32.   Who likes to have really long (deep) conversation?

Both of them, really. It was something they liked to do on a night; setting aside 30 minutes to just talk about their day, or whatever was bothering them.

33.   Who would wear “not guilty” t-shirt/ Who would wear “sin” t-shirt?

Lee would wear the ‘Sin’ t-shirt, while Carley would wear the ‘not guilty’.

34.   Who would wear “if lost return to…” t-shirt/ Who would wear “I am…” t-shirt?

Oh my Christ it would be “If lost return to Carley” and “I am Carley”. She was the more mature in the relationship, after all.

35.   Who goes overboard on the holidays?

Neither. They believed in setting boundaries, and setting budgets. It wasn’t about what they spent, or the grand gestures; it was the fact that they were together to celebrate things that mattered to them.

36.   Who is the social media addict?

Seeing as Carley needed to keep up with general goings-on in the world, she was on social media the most of the two of them. But neither of them was an addict per-se.

37.   Height difference or age difference?

Lee was two years older than Carley, and they met when Carley was 18 years old, and Lee was 20. There is just under a foot of height difference between them (5’3” – 6’2”)

38.   Who likes to star gaze?

Both of them. Their honeymoon consisted of a lot of stargazing (keep tuned to my fanfic!)

39.   Who buys cereal for the prize inside?

Neither. The only cereal they eat is bran or cornflakes, which are ‘adult’ cereals, and thus there is no prize in them.

40.   Who is the fun parent/ Who is the responsible parent?

Lee was the more fun of the two of them (letting Clementine get icecream before dinner, and play at the park for an extra little while) while Carley was the firmer of the two. Though they never grounded Clem, they did take away privileges if she was ever in trouble (which was a rarity).

41.   Who cries during sad movies? 

Carley. Oh my Christ, Carley. Though Lee did cry during Monsters Inc, which was the butt of many jokes for years to come.

42.   Who is the neat freak?

CARLEY. Literally, she liked to keep EVERYTHING organized and in its own place, while Lee liked his office to be an organized mess.

43.   Who wins the stuffed animals at the carnival for the other one?

Lee tried to, and failed multiple times, and then grumbled for an hour about how the games were rigged, and how no one would ever win them.

44.   Who is active/ Who is lazy?

They’re both pretty active, to be honest.

45.   Who is more likely to get drunk?

Lee. Carley had only been blackout-drunk twice over their entire relationship, with one being very early on (resulting in a false-positive pregnancy test), and the other being her bachelorette night.

46.   Who has the longer food order?

Lee. He can eat for America, and then some.

47.   Who has the more complex coffee order?

Carley. God, she liked all kinds of coffee. Black, white, Latte, Cappucino, frappe; you name it, she’d drink it. Whereas Lee drank it black most of the time, with Almond milk occasionally.

48.   Who loses stuff?

Lee. He could not keep a space tidy for the LIFE of him. Carley always TRIED to keep things as tidy as possible, but he’d go right back in and mess things up, thus meaning he lost a lot of things.

49.   Who is the driver/ Who is the passenger?

Lee did the majority of the driving, though both of them were actually able to. It just tended to be him that drove them to and from places.

50.   Who is the hopeless romantic?

Oh god, both of them! They really liked to show each other that they loved each other, and really believed in making their marriage work. As cheesy as it sounds, Lee knew she was the one from that first meeting, and she felt exactly the same.

Glee 6x08 liveplurk

Yuè [glee 6x08] i still can't believe RIB thought it was a good idea to get Klaine back together and have them get married... in less than half an hour

[thrushed]

Welcome to Honey fills in a meme about the otp, Love/Robin, a ship that could use a ship name but I’m not creative enough for that. :D

who is more likely to hurt the other?

Physically they would only hurt each other by accident so who knows! I think Robin is more likely to since Love has a bit of a complex around hurting people bodily and has more emotional intelligence than Robin, lmfao. Robin can say more hurtful things in the moment and he can be blunt in his thoughts and wording if he’s in a certain mood.

who is emotionally stronger?

Hmm... Robin has been through more hardships and had to grow up faster which has given him a lot of tools to keep on keeping on, though this stuff can be emotionally draining too. His feelings don’t run as high as Love’s, who is the definition of abundant. (Robin is overall steadier character.) But Robin doesn’t have the same kind of emotional strength to do stuff that Love can do easily like being emotionally available all the time, open socializing, whatever society stuff rich people do, etc. Love is tons freer with his emotions and more comfortable with expressing them. Robin tends to want to find his equilibrium on his own and not overshare, so even though Robin is the quiet-stoic-leader type who seems to have his shit together, Love probably wins here! Love, the emotionally intelligent one. Lol.

who is physically stronger?

Their strengths are so different I have no idea. I don’t know who would win in a fight between the two of them and we muns have talked about it too if they would have gotten matched up 1v1 in the Vytal Festival Tournament. We don’t know! It gets complicated with semblances and weapons and whether or not they were seriously going at it? Buuut if they were arm wrestling Robin will definitely win because almost a lifetime of archery has given him serious muscle strength and stamina where it counts~

who is more likely to break a bone? 

THEY’RE HUNTSMEN IDK. I’ll flip a coin..... Coin says Love.

who knows best what to say to upset the other? 

Robin. Love will needle at things and be challenging but also backs off if it’s too much? A very early encounter between them really set the precedent of Love learning not to overstep boundaries too much with Robin. Robin is the one who will zoom to the heart of things as straight and true as one of his arrows, and he’s learning the stuff that gets to Love the most. He’ll point out personality flaws or plainly call something bullshit if it’s bullshit, or he’ll just cut Love off, which might be the most upsetting thing for Love ahaha!

who is most likely to apologise first after an argument? 

Love unless Robin is clearly in the wrong and knows it. Robin takes longer to cool off and get around to the apologising, but he will do it first if he has to.

who treats who’s wounds more often? 

Robin. Love is “squeamish” around blood.

who is in constant need of comfort? 

Omg they both need it. These kids. Love is just someone who seeks comfort through people and making good experiences. Robin absolutely needs comfort on his bad days, after nightmares or when the trauma feels particularly close on that day and he just does not have enough spoons or when self-soothing fails him. Love probably wants more attention but Robin definitely needs more comfort in his life.

who gets more jealous? 

Robin. Robin is much more possessive once they’re officially together and he tries hard not to be obvious about it or let it lead to true jealousy. He knows how much Love flirts around and how appealing his personality is because he loves that about Love too? But in the back of his mind he’s still like... but he’s mine. Robin is fiercely monogamous while Love is ????? which is reason #278273 why they take forever to officially start dating.

who’s most likely to walk out on the other? 

Robin. Walking out and/or giving the silent treatment is his thing in person and in text. :)

who will propose? 

Literally no idea. As of right now it’s not a possibility. Love is betrothed, Robin has a lot of loose ends he needs to resolve before he wants to even think about marriage and making a new life with someone. And they’re in a ldr for a good while.

who has the most difficult parents?

That’s present tense and Robin’s parents are gone sooo. Love.

who initiates hand-holding when they’re out in public? 

Pshaw. Love. Hand holding, linking arms... he does the pdas.

who comes up for the other all the time? 

I don’t know what this means D:

who hogs the blankets? 

Love. Because he’s a wimp for the cold and has such an early bedtime that he gets first dibs on the blankets.

who gets more sad? 

Robin though he’s very quiet about it and gets annoyed at himself if he complains to people about his own woes.

who is better at cheering the other up? 

Love x1000. Love is so good with words and can be such a warm person that it makes Robin mad sometimes, but it’s incredibly welcome!

who’s the one that playfully slaps the other all the time after they make silly jokes?

Neither? :/ Yeah, neither. No playful slappy. 

who is more streetwise?

Robin by faaaar. Love thinks he is streetwise because Vacuo can be a rough place, but Love grew up safe and sheltered and with a seriously good quality of life. Love chose whenever he wanted to go to a rough place while Robin’s the one who has lived having to be streetwise. He’s suffered the consequences of not being streetwise enough. Robin may not be a big people-person but he would be able to find his way around different scenarios. There are a few situations where Robin can be a weirdly effective social butterfly too.

who is more wise?

I said all of the above but Love knows and says a lot of wise stuff! Love is more philosophical and poetic about wisdom. Robin has lived wisdom that shows in his practicality and decision-making process, which is what characterizes his leadership style.

who’s the shyest? 

Robin? Not shy exactly but he’s more reserved!

who boasts about the other more? 

Love. Love would boast about the cat he met 5 seconds ago...

who sits on who’s lap?

Neither have this habit? But most likely Love?

Sengoku Night Blood Episode 3 Recap.

Furrrrrrrrrrries!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

– We have this moment where Hideyoshi says he will make Yuzuki want to marry him again but then Hanbee Takaeda (the boku cute pie) interrupts them with Bad News! Apparently one of the guys from the Takeda Army (Aka the werewolves *cough* furries*cough*) came to see them.

–The guy is a cute blond with long hair called Masanobu Kousaka, he informe them that Shingen forces are near and they wish to talk with Hideyoshi about Nobunaga and the girl with Himemiko’s blood, but Hideyoshi is kind of an ass.

–They (Hideyoshi Army) team up together to talk about what they gonna do with Shingen and his army and Hideyoshi just like that decides the best is to go and see him and everyone is just like oh well Hideyoshi-sama is always like this, lol.

–Once at the furry base two guys are sparring but one of them points out Yuzuki must be the girl with Himemiko’s blood, amd Hideyoshi gets in protective mode but before anything happens Shingen comes out to see what the hell is happening and once he sees is the Hideyoshi army he invites them to drink sake with him and his man.

–Yuzuki is not really someone who like to drink, Toshiee on the other hand is completely drunk off his ass (he is so adorable!!!), our heroine is instead staring at the furries (relatable af, I mean they are adorable and their ears twitch!!!!) amd one of them is like why are you staring at us like that?? And Shingen immediately notices is the first time she sees a werewolf and even offers to let her touch his ears (ahhh I volunteer!!! Please Shingen-sama let me touch the fluffies! Do it gurl!!) but Hideyoshi gets jealous (stop it dude you are not her keeper, let the romance happen!!!) and asks Hanbee to escort her to her room along with a very sleepy drunk Toshiee (#darn you and your cockblocking ways Hideyoshi).

–Toshiee is completely wasted and Yuzuki tells Hanbee maybe a bit of water will help, Hanbee agrees and Yuzuki goes for it.

–Back at the sake party, Shingen asks Hideyoshi for an alliance so they can protect Yuzuki and defeat Nobunaga together (Oh yes pls!!!!)

–Yuzuki finds Masatoyo (a cute werewolf he sneaks up on people often) he s looking for a couple of vials made of wood and helps her with the water.

–Hideyoshi rejects the offer (ahhhhhh you arrogante jealous bih!!!!!) and Shingen is as annoyed as me.

–Yuzuki trips and accidentally spills the vials, they contained a medicine, she apologizes to Shingen and his man, he is pretty cool about it actually (ahhh stop it Shingen is just my kind of dude) all of them are except for Masukage a cute pie who gets real angry but the rest the guys apologize for his behaviour cuz he has never known the touch of a woman (basically he is a virgin) and the poor baby gets all flustered. Thing is they will need to make more medicine amd for that the must look for the herbs in the woods of course Yuzuki offers to help them.

–One of Shingen’s man is worries about Shingen cuz apparently he is really sick, and he says Shingen should push for a marriage alliance with Yuzuki (yes pls) but my sweet bae says he decided not to marry since a long time ago (whyyyyyy??)

–She goes to the woods with them along with Hideyoshi cuz the guy is a jealous ass, Masukage is being pretty rude with Yuzuki but she doesn’t get disheartened, and once she finds a herb she shows it to him excitedly and he kind of warms up a bit to her (I live for this moments) but Mr Cockblock ruins the fun once again, not only that but the idiot steps on a bee nest and they have to run outta there, tee-hee this is just dandy for me cuz Masukage grabs Yuzuki’s arm and once they arrive he gets teased for not letting go of her and someone asks him what does it feel to have touched a woman for the first time (leave my baby alone he is too pure for this world).

–Now Yuzuki asks Masanobu to teach her how to make the medicine while Shingen spies on them with a smile (my heeaaart) once they finish, Shingen talks to Yuzuki and offers to have some bean paste with honey together, and Yuzuki asks him why did he left the medicine in such a wierd place, the reason is because the medicine is very bitter and Shingen looooves sweets (a guy after my own heart) then he asks why did she help them and she says that is because she caused them troubles is her responsability to fix them Shingen says a guy named Uesugi Kenshin is just the same and he admires that and aspires to be like that, he gets this amazing aura and she says he is cool (of course I ship it).

–Shingen’s man are convincing him to take his medicine cuz a woman warmed hard to make it for him, but he is like ewwwwww still he takes it and is very surprised to find the medicine is not bitter at all, Yuzuki tells him she added honey to it so it won’t be bitter for him (ahhhhh this is love my dudes) and suddenly everyone (me included) wants her to join the Takeda Army.

–Bam!! Naughty Nobunaga sends a surprise attack and the must flee, of course my baby Shingen takes his waifu with him and carries her in bridal style to the woods even though he is reeeeal sick (ahhhh my shipper heart, this is it my OTP) he starts coughing blood making Yuzuki very worried, but he still tries to reassure her, Masatoyo can’t take to watch his beloved Leader suffer and tells Yuzuki Shingen has a chronic sickness and only her blood can help him but Shingen refuses to take her blood (honestly he is 1000000x times better than fucking Hideyoshi who took her blood even when she didn’t want him to and was scared af) Yuzuki girl keep him. Oh and now they are more fucked cuz some Yakuma appear and Shingen says he will fight to protect her and he does! (*chanting* OTPOTPOTP)

–Shingen’s man save them just in time and they manage to defeat their enemies with Hideyoshi’s help, Yuzuki and the Hideyoshi Team say their goodbyes (I mean of course she would stay with the Hideyoshi team because they are the main group, the STARISH if you will, but narratively it would make more sense for Yuzuki as a character to stay with the Takeda Army, because they never told her she wasn’t useful instead they taught her to do the medicine and praised her all around appreciating her willingness to help, besides Yuzuki seems the kind of person who would want to help someone in need like Shingen, also he refused her blood which seems to be all this people care about #just saying)

–We have that cute raccoon-san from the first Episode running and calling out to Yuzuki #the plot thickens.

–Nobunaga is chilling in his throne? With his minions around and it’s time to act (Kay but he is still so hot??? I want more of this gothic vampire pls)

Final Toughts: I LOOOOOVED this Episode, and I must admit I liked the Takeda Army a lot more than Hideyoshi’s #sorry not sorry, I am definitely buying that game just to play Shingen’s route a thousand times, and now I am curious about Nobunaga seems we’ll get more plot next Episode and I am ready for it cuz so far this anime hasn’t disappointed me on the romance department.
