lullabies - jjk

summary: in which everyone is sleep deprived and jungkook helps with some lullabies || warnings: none || genre: fluff, established relationship, parenthood au, dad!jungkook || word count: approximately 700

Your baby was constantly waking you and Jungkook up throughout the night with loud sobs, and this night was no different. You checked on her the first time, going into her room and making sure nothing was wrong and that she wasn't hungry or anything like that, and when she rejected you feeding her, you knew she wasn't. You then checked her diaper to make sure she was okay and she was, it was clean. You even did everything to make her crib as comfortable as possible while still making sure it was safe for her, and yet every once in a while, throughout the night, you were being woken up the sound of her cries.

After the first time, you stopped checking and waited for her to calm down, which after a few minutes, she always did, but it was constant throughout the night and you couldn't take it.

Your head pounded as you woke up for the nth time to the sound of your baby crying. You turned over, now facing the man who was spooning you from behind, to see that Jungkook was also awake now.

"Just try to ignore it, honey. Blair will be okay." Jungkook softly says in an obviously sleepy voice. We were both sleep deprived, but we expected this, and we'd just have to get through it.

I nodded as I shut my eyes and cuddled up to his chest, the both of us lying there for a few minutes as we listened to the sounds of our baby's cries.

I couldn't take it anymore.

I moved away from him and he opened his eyes, looking at me.

"I can't do this. She's crying for longer than usual." I said, which wasn't actually true, but it definitely felt longer than usual this time.

"Okay, I'll go check on her." Jungkook tells me.

"It's okay, I can-" I'm cut off.

"Baby, no. You checked on her last time, it's my turn. Lay down." He said as he pecked my forehead and got out of bed, walking out of the room.

A few minutes later, I could still hear my baby crying next door, but at least she wasn't crying as hard as before. Even though I knew Jungkook was there taking care of Blair, I couldn't help it. I got out of bed and made my way to Blair's room.

When I walked into the Blair's room, I saw Jungkook standing in the middle of the room with her in his arms, swaying back and forth slowly as he softly spoke to her. He looked over at me when I walked in the room, smiling a little at the sight of me.

"You just couldn't resist, could you?" Jungkook softly asked me with a smile and I nodded, walking over to him and putting my hand on Blair's arm, gently rubbing it.

Jungkook handed me Blair and I carefully took her in my arms. He led me to the little sofa and made me sit down. He then stood by Blair and I and started softly singing lullabies. I continued gently rocking her as we both listened to Jungkook singing. Jungkook's hand made his way up to my head as he started gently massaging my head with his hand.

Now, with his singing voice, me rocking Blair, and him massaging my head, along with just the lack of sleep in general; Blair and I were both getting sleepy.

Eventually, without even realizing Blair fell asleep and so did I also I continued to unconsciously rock her in my sleep. Jungkook noticed and he stopped massaging my head. He walked over to Blair and took her from me, gently placing her in the crib. He bent down and gave her forehead a little kiss before walking over to me and picking me up from the chair, carrying me out of the room and back into bed.

I didn't even realize what had happened until I woke up the next morning, tucked into bed, next to Jungkook, who was sleeping next to me. I checked the baby monitor on my nightstand and I saw that Blair was still asleep.

Parenthood is difficult, but it is worth it.

500 words or less! Either feysand or nessian finding out their having a baby!

Cassian had no idea how long he'd been standing in the bathroom, staring at the little stick that had the word pregnant on the tiny screen in little black letters.

He'd just gotten home from the gym and was getting in the shower when he accidentally dropped his phone in the trash next to the toilet. For a moment, he debated if it was even worth it - he knew what was in the trash of he and Nesta's master bathroom - but ultimately decided that he could bear a few germs to get to his $800 phone.

But then he found it.

The pregnancy test.

The pregnancy test that he'd been staring at, stark nude, since he'd found it.

Pregnant.

He was so stuck in shock that he hadn't heard the front door open, hadn't heard the footsteps down the hall, hadn't heard his wife come into their bedroom and freeze at the threshold of the bathroom.

"Cass."

He'd hardly heard his name, but although she hardly breathed it, it caught his attention just enough.

He turned to face her.

His cheeks were wet. He hadn't even realized he'd been crying.

Even in his state of undress, she met his eyes with the smallest of smiles. A hopeful smile.

"This is yours," Cassian said, holding it up. He felt like an idiot asking, but he needed the confirmation.

Nesta laughed, quietly. "Yes. It's mine. And yours, in case you were wondering."

He couldn't even comprehend her joke, he was too dumbfounded by the fact that he was going to be a father.

"I just found out this morning," Nesta went on, stepping towards him. "I was going to tell you at dinner tonight. I had a super cute idea planned that you just ruined by rifling through the trash, which is disgusting, by the way."

Still too stunned for her teasing, Cassian took her hand in his. "You're pregnant."

"Yeah."

"We're having a baby."

She laughed. "Yeah."

"Fuck," he breathed, which made her laugh louder, and then he was lifting her off the ground and spinning her around. She'd just started squealing uncontrollably when she started smacking at him. He set her on her feet as he said, "Sorry, am I crushing you? Fuck, am I crushing the baby-"

"You stink," she said, still grinning as she dusted off her sweater - as if she could dust off his post-gym stench. "And you're naked."

"You never complained about my nakedness before," he said, one brow lifted. "Which is how we got to this point."

Nesta rolled her eyes - eyes that lingered down, then back up again. "Pig."

But when he reached out for her, she let him pull her back towards him and he kissed her softly. "I'm sorry I ruined your surprise."

"It's okay," she whispered, leaning up on her toes to kiss him again. "You're happy."

There was almost a hint of doubt there that Cassian wanted to quickly erase. "Yeah, Nes. Yeah, I'm happy. I'm really, really happy."

"Good," she breathed, the tension fading from her shoulders. "Me too."

In less than a year, they'd be a family of three, and although Cassian knew what a huge responsibility a child was, he couldn't even pretend to be stressed or nervous or scared.

He was too damn happy.

Made some art things for the Parenthood AU because I can

If you don't know what this au is; Kevin and Streber basically simultaneously both replace the role of Lila, but are also still kind of in their original roles too. Lila most likely doesn't exist in this au, or she does and just gave Skid up for adoption for some reason.

Also yes, Streber still survives in this au, but is traumatized. He used to like lifting Skid off of the ground in a playful manner, and he still does, but he has trouble with it now that he only has one arm.

Bonus: In this au, Streber, Kevin and Skid visited the beach once. Kevin decided to go on a walk on the beach because he could. But after a bit of messing around, Skid decided he wanted to go see Kevin. Streber decided to come with him. But as they tried to find Kevin, they ran into a bunch of crabs. Which led to Streber protectively holding Skid and screeching at the top of his lungs while trying to fend the crabs off. Kevin saw all of this from afar, and after running like crazy, he managed to save the both of them. After lightly scolding the both of them, Kevin decided to just go back to the spot they picked for their beach visit, and spent time with his family there. Either way, Kevin wasn't really mad at them, he's just constantly stressed over Skids safety due to his spooky antics, and will panic easily even if it's just like minor danger.

"Say Grace, lest the showrunners smite you" fan request completed by @vaasm

[lavenderstobins]

“We are not recreating The Shining,” Eddie says firmly, plucking the hatchet from her hands and holding it above her head before she can swipe it back.

Nancy inhales through her nose, staring at the closed door. In fairness to her, he gets it. He feels panicked enough about his godchild-slash-kid-of-his-two-best-friends being locked in the room by himself. If it was his daughter trapped in a room by herself, he’d probably be trying to hack the door down too.

January, 1996. Robin and Nancy have just moved into their new house with their son, next door to Steve, Eddie and their daughter. They're meant to be having a casual catch-up, but life has never been easy for them, has it?

a not-so-little parenthood au fic i wrote, featuring eddienancy best friendisms, platonic soulmates steve & robin, steddie & ronance as parents, eddie and nancy being a chaotic duo, and some character introspection.

“Psst! Old Geezer!”

“The fuck did you just call me–!” Dick Grayson was a lot of things–cop, detective, vigilante, handsome beyond mortal comprehension–but he wasn’t old! Twenty-three was not old! When he got his hands on that brat– “Oh, it’s you. You need to knock it off, kid.”

The kid in question had become something of a legend to the Central Bloodhaven Police Department. Detective O’Mallery had dubbed the kid “Stalky,” but Dick thought Lurky was a more accurate name; the kid lurked outside murder scenes, often showing up before the press… and sometimes, before the cops. Lurky was a short kid, easily half Dick’s height, and pale. He practically glowed, lighting up the alley Dick was guarding. He wore a black overcoat that swamped his tiny body, with the sleeves and hem cut to fit the child’s frame and a stiff gothic collar that reached his ears. Lurky’s black hair and blue eyes uncomfortably reminded Dick of—

“Nah, i don’t think i will,” the kid dismissed, shoving his hands in his pockets. “‘Sides, you can’t do anything to stop me.”

“I can arrest you,” Dick said, completely serious. “You’re interfering with a crime scene, again. I’d be well within my rights to do so.” The kid looked unimpressed. 

“Okay, boomer.”

Dick resisted the urge to murder a child. Barely. 

“Besides,” Lurky continued, “I just wanted to do my civic duty and inform you of the bloody knife three alleys over. Pretty sure it could help solve the crime scene there.” He gestured towards the apartment building behind Dick. “Andrew Grant-Williams, age 36, apartment 214. Right?”

“How the hell did you know that?”

“What, that thing with the knife? I looked for it, obviously.”

“No, about the suspect!” Dick glared at Lurky. “There’s no way you could have pinpointed who in the apartment died; did you steal a police radio!?” If he did, then Dick would actually have to arrest the kid. 

“No, I didn’t steal a police radio. Yet.” Dick tried really hard to ignore that last part. He’d done far worse things as Robin, after all. “His wife told me.”

Andrew Grant’s wife, Patrisa, died four years ago in a mugging gone wrong. Before Dick could question Lurky further, Dick blinked and Lurky vanished just like Batman. 

Even worse? Dick bothered checking the dumpster three alleys over and found, underneath a bag of kitchen scraps, a hunting knife, still bloody.

For Rowaelin

Morning in bed with their children

Ship: Rowan x Aelin Trope: Parenthood, modern au, fluff A/N: Thank you for the sweet prompt! I hope you enjoy. :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"DADDY!"

Rowan didn't even have time to open his eyes before he nearly took a knee to the groin. His daughter, who was going to be five in a week, was half her mother and half WWE wrestler. Beautiful and funny and slightly terrifying, Rowan loved her more than anything in the world.

Even at five-thirty in the morning.

With a grunt, Rowan wrapped his daughter in his arms with a yawn. "You should still be asleep, Freya. It's too early."

"But I'm excited," she whispered, although it seemed loud as hell in Rowan's ear. "Mommy said we go swimming today. I want to go swimming."

Rowan looked over at Aelin, who was still sound asleep. Her mouth was hanging wide open and he swore she was drooling.

"Mommy won't be up for at least two hours," he grumbled. "Go back to sleep until she's up."

"But you're up, daddy," she said, and he swore she spit into his ear as she spoke.

"Not by choice," he muttered.

"Want to play superheroes?" she asked, slapping him in the face with every word that came out of her mouth. "Or, we can watch cartoons. Or, we can make pancakes. Or, we can play with playdoh--"

"I will do all of that once the sun is up," Rowan promised her, his eyes still closed as he patted her back. "C'mon, Freya. Back to sleep."

"But I'm not tired," she whined, throwing her entire little body into her mini-fit. "If RoRo can be awake, so can I."

Rowan sighed. "If Roman was awake, he would be--"

A soft cry came through the baby monitor, and Rowan opened his eyes to find Freya giving him a satisfied grin that reminded him of his wife when she was proven right and he was proven wrong.

Beside him, Aelin barely stirred and Rowan swung his legs off the mattress and stumbled down the hallway to the nursery. Their eight-month-old son was sitting up, lip wobbling as his feet kicked in his sleepsack. Rowan quickly picked him up and nearly gagged from the stench coming off of the infant.

How something so small could produce such a stench...he would never understand.

After a quick diaper and pajama change, Rowan was carrying his son down the stairs, his lip being tugged on as if it was the latest trend in baby toys. He was too tired to care.

He mixed a bottle that was quickly put into Roman's mouth to keep his whining at bay, and with his little head on Rowan's shoulder, they went back upstairs to the master bedroom.

Once Rowan entered, Aelin was still sound asleep but to his surprise, Freya was too. Her golden curls were splayed across the middle of the bed and she was lying sideways, her feet propped on Aelin's side. Even in his exhausted state, Rowan chuckled at the sight. His daughter and his wife were snoring in unison.

"They're a mess," he whispered to Roman, who grinned up at his father with the bottle still in his mouth. Careful not to wake either of them, Rowan settled back against his side of the bed and cradled Roman while he finished his bottle. When he was all done, Rowan laid the infant against his chest and burped him. In the process, Roman fell right back asleep, his mouth hanging open, breathing steadily.

He was just about to doze off himself when the bed shifted and Aelin's glazed eyes met his. She gave him a sleepy smile before laughing quietly at Freya, still sprawled out across the bed. She reached across their daughter and ran her thumb over Roman's hand.

"You could sleep through battle," Rowan mumbled, and Aelin chuckled.

"I don't know what you're talking about," she shot back with a yawn, scooping Freya into her arms. "You shouldn't be up so early though, babe. It's Saturday for fuck's sake."

Rowan shot her a look that only earned him a wicked grin before she puckered her lips. Rowan leaned down to press his mouth softly against hers before saying, "You're so full of shit."

"That's why you married me." She winked. "And procreated with me."

Rowan's deep laughter shook the bed as he settled back into his pillows. "Yeah. That's why."

Aelin reached around Freya and took Rowan's hand in hers as her eyes fell shut once again. She drifted back into a peaceful sleep but Rowan was wide awake. Even if he couldn't fall back asleep, he didn't want to move. He was comfortable holding his wife's hand, cradling his son, listening to the sweet obnoxious snores of his four-year-old.

It was so simple, but it was perfect.

Even if it was too damn early.

Fantasy of the day

is Iris running around the house after bath time. The plan is for Kimmy and Jim to chase her into a corner and then catch her in a towel, but she acts (and sounds!) like a greased pig. The terrible twos were pretty terrible with Iris; that kid is basically the energizer bunny until 8:30 sharp. And that's a problem, because bedtime is supposed to be 7.
