[shepcdr]

some notes i've made for my pre-mass effect 1 timeline and NPCs until I have time to figure out how to effectively integrate them into my navigation (and just so I can keep track of when tf things happen)! all of this info supplements what is currently in shepard's bio page! i want to work in more details about shepard's alliance career and the timing of his n7 training + there are some other tenth street reds NPCs that ive not had the time to think about and flesh out, but i decided i wanted to sit down last night and at least give a few of them some official names/blurbs. cw for drug use (underage) / manipulation / child abuse for second image -- nothing written out in detail, just explained as clinically as i possible can -- under dax's blurb!

You never meant to like her.

In fact, you were supposed to dislike her.

Alexia Putellas—Spain’s golden girl, the beating heart of FC Barcelona, and the bane of your existence every time El Clásico rolled around. And you? The French firecracker in Real Madrid’s midfield, signed with pride and pressure on your shoulders.

You met her on the pitch first. Cold stares, sharp tackles, a smirk she wore like war paint.

“Careful, francesa,” she murmured during your first ever Clásico, brushing your shoulder with hers. “You might melt under the pressure.”

You narrowed your eyes, heart racing. “Not likely, reina. Worry about yourself.”

It was the start of something strange.

Because every match after that, she sought you out. A glance. A brush of hands when passing by. Words exchanged under the roar of the crowd—sometimes biting, sometimes teasing.

But off the pitch… that’s where things blurred.

You saw her at an awards gala in Madrid, dressed in red and gold like sin itself. She spotted you across the room, lifted her glass with that signature smirk, and you felt your heart hiccup.

The first real conversation happened after an international friendly. Spain vs France. The game had ended in a draw, tension thick but smiles exchanged as the teams shook hands.

“You were brilliant,” she said, stopping you in the tunnel. “You always are.”

You blinked. “Is that a compliment from Alexia Putellas?”

She shrugged, eyes twinkling. “Maybe. Or maybe I’m just trying to distract you before the next Clásico.”

You laughed. Mistake.

Because after that, she messaged you. Once. Then again. Then it became a habit.

Training selfies. Voice notes of her teasing your accent. You sending her croissant emojis after she lost a match. Her sending you a Barcelona jersey with your name ironed on the back as a joke (you wore it once—alone—in your apartment, just to see).

The press would lose their minds if they knew.

The team would raise eyebrows.

But when she met you in a quiet café in Madrid on your day off, hood pulled low, and reached for your hand like it was the most natural thing in the world, you didn’t stop her.

"You’re still annoying,” you whispered, sipping your coffee.

"And you're still dramatic,” she smiled, lacing your fingers together anyway. “But I like you like that.”

There were still fierce matches, still red cards and screaming fans. She’d shove you on the pitch, and wink when the ref wasn’t looking. You’d tackle her hard and mouth Oops with the most sarcastic smile possible.

But later, in hotel rooms after national call-ups, or during secret weekends in little Spanish towns where no one cared about rivalries, she'd kiss you like you were hers. Soft and sweet and nothing like the war you waged on the field.

“Someday,” she whispered against your skin once, breath warm and slow, “I’ll play beside you. Club, country, doesn’t matter. Just… not against you.”

You smiled into her hair, heart full.

“Until then,” you murmured, “we’ll just have to keep pretending we hate each other.”

Alexia chuckled. “We’re so good at pretending.”

But neither of you let go.

You swore you were being careful.

No Instagram likes. No lingering glances when the cameras were around. No replies to her stories, even when she posted a stupid selfie with her dog and you nearly melted on your hotel bed.

You were careful.

Until you weren’t.

It started with Olga.

You were coming back from international duty—France had played Spain, again. A brutal match. You and Alexia had “accidentally” collided three times, and at one point, you’d whispered, “Hit me any harder and I’ll take it personally.”

To which she smirked and replied, “Don’t tempt me, mi amor.”

Which you definitely did not think about on the flight back.

But Olga must’ve noticed something. Because when you came into training the next day, all smiles and a bit too floaty for someone who’d spent 90 minutes getting elbowed by her "rival," she gave you that look.

“Why are you smiling like that?” she asked, squinting at you across the locker room.

You blinked. “Like what?”

“Like you kissed someone. Or stole Barça’s playbook.”

You choked on your water bottle. “I did not kiss anyone.”

Technically true. Not during the match. Not in the stadium.

Olga narrowed her eyes. “Hmm.”

She didn’t bring it up again. Not directly.

But during a post-match interview a few weeks later—after a tense draw between Real and Barça—Alexia had done it again. She’d caught your eye from across the field, mouthed “Nice try”, and winked.

You glared at her (playfully), then immediately had to look away to hide your smile.

The next day, while reviewing match footage, Olga leaned over your shoulder.

“Funny,” she murmured, pausing the video. “This moment here—when Alexia looks at you like you're the last pain au chocolat on Earth. Very sportsmanlike, huh?”

You turned slowly. “You’re imagining things.”

“Oh, am I?”

You were doomed.

Later that evening, in the privacy of your apartment, your phone buzzed.

Alexia [19:32]: Olga knows??

You [19:33]: She suspects. She paused a wink. She’s basically Sherlock Holmes now.

Alexia [19:34]: Told you I wink too much 😭

You [19:34]: No. I told you that. Every time. And you still do it.

Alexia [19:35]: Can’t help it. You’re cute when you’re flustered.

You rolled onto your back and groaned into your pillow.

Later that week, a national break arrived. You had three free days. You told your teammates you were visiting your cousin in Zaragoza. Technically not a complete lie. You just… didn’t specify who you were staying with.

When you arrived at Alexia’s apartment, she opened the door in sweatpants and socks with little Spanish flags on them.

You pointed. “You are so on-brand, it’s ridiculous.”

She pulled you in by the collar. “And you’re late.”

You spent the night curled up on her couch, watching a movie with half-eaten popcorn between you. She kissed your temple during a quiet scene and you thought, Rivalries be damned.

But the next morning, as you scrolled through your phone, you stopped on Olga’s latest Instagram story.

It was a selfie. Her, with a very suspicious eyebrow raise. The caption?

“Hope your ‘cousin’ is nice. 😏”

You froze.

Alexia leaned over your shoulder and cackled. “Oh, she knows.”

You groaned, burying your face in her shoulder. “I’m never going to live this down.”

She kissed the top of your head. “Guess we’ll just have to score more goals and make her too busy to care.”

“…Or just tell her.”

“Or that.”

You sighed. “Maybe next week.”

Alexia smiled and handed you her mug. “Next week, then. For now, drink your coffee, ma belle rivale.”

You smiled into the rim. Maybe being bad at hiding wasn’t so bad after all.

Word spreads fast in football circles.

Faster, even, when it’s scandalous. When it’s unexpected. When it’s you and Alexia Putellas.

You don’t know how someone from Barça found out. Maybe it was a screenshot. A message left open. A little too much softness in her smile when she looked at you during warmups.

Either way, you felt it the moment you stepped onto the pitch for El Clásico.

Something was off.

The Barcelona girls weren’t just sharp—they were cold. You’d gotten used to the bite, sure, but this was personal. You caught Aitana staring at you like she knew everything. Like she was just waiting for you to slip.

And then it happened.

67th minute. The ball bounced loose at midfield. You sprinted. So did Alexia.

You didn’t see her until the last second—her body shifted, your foot came down, and suddenly she was on the ground, clutching her ankle.

“Shit—Alexia!” you dropped down beside her instantly, panic blooming in your chest.

But she looked up at you, pale and in pain, and whispered, “I know it wasn’t on purpose.”

Too late.

Because by then, they were there.

Mapi was the first. “Qué carajo estás haciendo?!” she snapped, grabbing your shoulder and yanking you back.

“Hey—HEY!” you shouted, hands up, trying to explain. “It was an accident!”

“You injured her!” Ona growled, stepping between you and Alexia.

“I didn’t mean to—”

That’s when it happened.

A fist. A blur. Pain blossomed across your cheek as Mapi punched you. Full force.

Everything went still.

You staggered back, clutching your face, eyes wide. The ref was screaming. Your teammates rushed over. Olga was already shoving between you and Mapi, yelling in Spanish, hands flying.

You didn’t even register the red card.

Didn’t care.

Because Alexia was still on the ground.

You broke free, ignoring the chaos, pushing past the ref to kneel beside her again.

“I swear I didn’t mean to,” you whispered, your voice breaking.

She reached up—barely—and touched your arm, eyes glassy. “I know. I know, mi amor.”

They took her off the pitch a few minutes later. You were sent off. Your coach looked like she wanted to strangle someone. Maybe you. Maybe Mapi. Maybe both.

The tunnel was dead silent.

Until footsteps echoed.

You looked up from the bench outside the medical room—and froze.

Mapi.

“Here to break my nose too?” you muttered bitterly, ice pack pressed against your cheek.

She crossed her arms, jaw clenched. “…She’s family to us.”

“I love her,” you snapped back, voice raw. “Don’t you get that? I would never hurt her.”

Mapi paused. Something in her expression shifted. “She defended you before they even finished checking her ankle. Said it wasn’t your fault. Said to tell you she was okay.”

You exhaled sharply. Relief hit you like a wave, and your shoulders dropped.

Mapi studied you for a long moment. “Just… don’t make her cry, francesa.”

Then she walked away.

Later that night, you were in your hotel room, half-asleep, when your phone buzzed.

Alexia [22:17]: I told them the truth. That it was an accident. Also, they’re banned from touching you ever again 😅 My ankle’s just bruised. I’m okay.

You stared at the message, tears burning the back of your throat.

Then another ping.

Alexia [22:18]: Come see me tomorrow?

You [22:18]: I’ll be there. With ice cream and a very bruised face.

Alexia [22:19]: Perfect. We’ll match.

You showed up at her door with a bruised cheek, two tubs of ice cream, and three kinds of guilt pressing on your chest.

Alexia opened the door in a hoodie three sizes too big, messy bun in full force, and a soft smile that made your knees weak.

“You look like you got hit by a truck,” she said gently, tilting her head.

You lifted the tub in your hand. “And you look like you need bubblegum ice cream and ten apologies.”

She stepped aside and let you in without another word.

You didn’t realize how tense you were until she curled into your side on the couch, her head resting against your shoulder like it always belonged there.

For a few minutes, you just sat there—eating in silence, your fingers brushing, the TV playing something neither of you were watching.

Then she looked up at you.

“You really scared me, you know,” she whispered. “Not because of the tackle. Because of your face when they came for you.”

You winced. “I couldn’t even explain. They were already ready to kill me.”

She reached up and ran her fingers carefully along the bruise on your cheek. “Mapi’s going to apologize. Eventually. I told her everything. That we’ve been… us.”

You turned your head toward her. “And what did she say?”

Alexia smiled faintly. “That you’d better be serious about me.”

You swallowed hard. “I am.”

Her expression softened like the evening light outside the window. “Good. Because I am too.”

She leaned up, kissed the edge of your jaw—lightly, careful of the bruise. You closed your eyes, letting yourself breathe for the first time since that tackle.

The next day, you returned to Real Madrid’s training ground.

And the second you stepped into the locker room, all eyes were on you.

Olga crossed her arms, eyebrow raised. “So…”

You blinked. “So… what?”

She smirked. “How’s your cousin?”

Groans filled the room, followed by laughter. Even Athenea threw a towel at you. “Seriously?! Alexia?!”

You sighed and slumped into the nearest bench. “Is everyone psychic here?”

“To be fair,” Misa said, “you’re not exactly subtle.”

“I tackled her,” you muttered.

Olga leaned closer. “Yeah. And then you looked like your soul left your body. It was weirdly romantic.”

You covered your face. “This is a nightmare.”

Olga nudged your shoulder. “Relax. We’re not mad. Just shocked.”

“She’s Alexia Putellas,” Athenea added. “And you’re you. Honestly? Kind of iconic.”

A long beat.

Then Olga grinned. “If you bring her to the next team dinner, I will make her wear a Real Madrid scarf.”

“No.”

“Yes.”

You sighed but couldn’t help smiling. “You’re all the worst.”

Later that night, your phone buzzed.

Alexia [20:10]: I told Patri about us too. She just sighed and said “finally.” Apparently we were never subtle.

You [20:11]: I think our teams might ship us more than we do.

Alexia [20:12]: Is that even possible?

You [20:12]: Not when you look at me like that after every tackle 😏

Alexia [20:13]: You tackled me ONCE. Calm down.

You [20:13]: Okay but I cried after. That’s romance, Putellas.

Alexia [20:14]: Come over.

You [20:14]: Already on my way.

"No matter how powerful, how divine, MoonClan will never have complete control. Violence will manifest in a perfect world, and hope will spark in a hopeless world. Stories can be found everywhere, but good stories begin with that compromise."

Years have passed since the first RainClan-LucentClan war, but the bad blood between the two continued to boil below the surface. As tensions begin to arise once more, a young warrior must choose between the beliefs and choices of his family and his own morals. 

================

Hi everyone, you can call me Rosepool :) Welcome to my Warriors webcomic, MoonClan's Choice! A long-term project spanning multiple arcs, with each arc focusing on a different cast, a different story — all of the clans under MoonClan's rule!

This will not be styled like a conventional webcomic. It will have more writing than most — think an illustrated script/novel, rather than a full-on comic. I also plan to incorporate other media elements, such as animatics and perhaps even interactive elements.

In addition, this is a pretty dialogue/plot-heavy webcomic with lots of buildup. It's also very character-oriented and will spend a lot of time developing said characters. Admittedly most of the action won't start until later in the story - if you're looking for something action heavy, this might not be for you!

However I hope you will give this story a shot :) I will do my best to make this as fun for you all as possible. For those who choose to stick around, I hope you will come to love this story as much as I do!

Foxskip's Choice will be updated 1-2 times a week (on Sundays and/or Thursdays) with a new page.

[live-laugh-loverpool]

I started supporting Liverpool...actually, I don't remember when. But all I know was that I was a young student in uni, and Kloppo has just joined the club. he turned Liverpool into the light that I'd heard it was years before I was even born, just like the legends.

Only this time, it was even better. From bare bones, he turned a squad of doubters into believers. And he did it without dubious funding, without mind games (MIKEL ARTETA, ANYONE?!), without paying the refs for free penalties and goals disallowed for the opposition. We won it anyways.

This team is not just a team. It's a group of people, a sort of family FC. and it's not just the players and coaching staff--it's the fans, too, every true fan. In his nine years, Klopp has turned Liverpool into a light that touches people's lives, and gives them some hope. maybe love is possible. maybe the underdogs can win. maybe it's okay to think romantically every now and then, while kicking butt and being a goofball at the same.

i could go on forever. but thank you, klopp. you helped me believe again

Coupe de France Reims vs Angers Copa Del Rey Atletico MAdrid vs FC Barcelona

Coupe de FRance Reims vs Angers

I love le Coupe, it is my favorite cup tournament in a football association. all teams participate, no restrictions. thousands of teams, I love the honesty. Most cups aren't used properly. The point of cup tournaments which started in england with the FA cup is to be a space where all teams in an FA have a chance to compete with each other.

circa 25th minute

Excellent, the ref is right, if you look at Angers, Reims, the angers player didn't hit the ball with his outstretched hand, the ball hit his hand next to his body. Excellent call, the video assisted refs are blind in this game

79th minute

the first goal reims has scored since the new coach , nakamura, ito with the assist. ANgers are battlers

82nd Niang has to score that, no excuse, no excuse

last minute of the game the 95th minute! great knockdown from 27 of Anger, Bamba Diang score! to penalties

I am not watching penalties

Copa del Rey atleti vs barca

Alvarez scored in the first minute, griezzman in the 6th and then with a 2-0 lead, atleti defense was unable to stop barca who went into run and gun mode and pedri + cubarsi scored. so again, atleti have to defend better, we can't let a 2-0 lead go like this. And I comprehend the challenge.

Well we will see. Atletico Madrid have battles from now to the beginning of march. every match is a battle, every match situation is to the next, handle it , act, onto the next

circa 25th

statistically Atletico madrid is the bet defensive team in laliga, over the course of the laliga season but barca is the strongest goal scoring side in laliga as well

atleti don't bunker like in the past, simeone has slowly in these ten years changed atleti's style of play, atleti play an open style, this allows for the false 9 system more goals but provides problems defensively, because when you play an open system, you need great athletes, like real madrid who play open but have in recovery , Valverde/Camavinga/Fran Garcia/Tchouameni these players have the athletic ability to recover. whereas atleti don't have anyone in midfield or defense like that, this is why the bunker is a better system for our athletic level but simeone has tried to get the team to be as sharp in skill as possible

circa 40th

in parallel barca play a high speed attacking system, they press at the halfway mark. It is a run and gun system this is why whenever they lose the ball you see the whole barca team run back as hard as they can. The idea is to knock the wind out of teams early, the problem is if they don't knock teams out early , or they get scored on early with a team able to bunker well, then they are winded in the second half and all sorts of problems can arise. but the young attackers have succeeded in punching teams out

halftime

no lyonga, simeone is playing barrios + gallagher who got a red card in a league match. Simeone is playing his rotation, he has done it all season. Gallagher passes backwards usualy. Barrios is young. If simeone doesn't rotate now after rotating all season he losses the lockerroom

it's not the same simply because simeone has rotated like this all season. Carlo isn't a heavy rotater so he is rotating now late in the season from circumstance, simeone has rotated all season like this

Oblak is the best keeper atletico madrid have but simeone for quite a few seaons plays the rotations, I saw this in the last three seasons. Maybe you haven't noticed. and i comprehend his reasoning. the point of rotation is fitness/health. Oblak can't play every game. He can't and giving musso/gallagher/barrios starts is what the rotation is for, show what you can do, and Simeone will more than likely make one shift halftime and then circa 70th the three like all season. I comprehend what you are saying, but... the players know his rotation, they expect to play, if he just says, i am going to change my mind that is bad coaching.

55th minute

phase 2 , simeone has done this a lot this season , the three phases

IN: Reinildo & Lino OUT: Galán & Giuliano Gonzaleznow mor speed with Lino. Reinildo better defensive support

60th minute, Molina in gallagher out arguably he has put better players in skill wise but players who are less athletically able

68th minute

IN: Correa & Sørloth OUT: De Paul & Griezmann

the beast is in

100% barca is tired, and llorente scores making is 4-3 time to equalize or win it, fire in the belly

in the 88th minute Raphinha + Pedri are out, raphinha balances for yamal + lewandowski while pedri often is the sole player truly possessiin in the attacking system so barca is going for the one goal lead

THE BEAST!

TRabzonspor!!! the beast!!!

I love himi never forget his time in the turkish super lig for trabzonspor, anyone else remember him then... sorloth is for me, lovely

great game, atleti!!! good half, all to play for in the next half, no problem, onto Bilbao, must win, good rest for lino/oblak/reinildo the rotation has worked all season, no excuse alteti had more chances to score, alvarez, no excuse baby

The Coach II

Player: Pep Guardiola

Summary: Months after your brief encounter at the end of football camp, Pep and female football player-reader meet up to see each other one more time. Word count: 3600+ Warnings/ themes: Infidelity, Soft Smut, Angst. Alcohol.A/N: This was going to be the second and final but it became so long I divided them up. The third and final one should come out in the next week. Since Man City won the Premier League and Pep was in Ted Lasso I decided to hurry this up and release it. Enjoy.  Part 1 

           You entered the lobby, it was early in the night. The lobby echoed with the sounds of people. tourist walking and chatter in different languages. You went straight to the hotel front desk and asked for an envelope left to you under your name, “Here you are, miss” said the man behind the counter. “Thank you, have a good night” you said as you started walking towards the elevator. You took the card key out of the envelope and looked at a sticky note on top of it that said in handwriting Room 1021. You smiled as you looked up to get in the elevator and pressed the white button next to the number 10 sign. You put the card key in your purse. You sighed and checked yourself in the reflection of the elevator mirror. Your heart had started to get a bit jittery and your breath was becoming shorter. No other man had this effect on you, no one could make you both as bold or as doubtful. But of all the things you could have been thinking, you could only think of how you got there. It was almost time for the international break and you were thinking if you should travel back home or stay in Spain, or go somewhere else for a mini vacation. Villareal, your club, was 4th in Liga F, and you were doing well. You had scored four goals by now, had good percentages of passes completed every game, and a good defensive rate. Your only shortcoming was that you sometimes lost your temper and you would argue with the ref and get a yellow, you had three of them by then.  Besides all the games won, you had a good highlight, an outside-the-box goal against Fc Barcelona, although the game ended 5-2 in their stadium, you were proud of yourself. They were the best team in Spain and in the top 3 of Europe, and you got one against them. You even exchanged jerseys with AItana Bonmati, you admired her, up there with Alexia Putellas. You still thought about Pep, not as often as before, but every now and then you would fantasize about seeing him again. You would watch some Manchester City games and get butterflies whenever the camera focused on him. He always looked so intense, so serious on TV. Not the man who offered you a flirty smile when his hand was touching your pussy, that man was never on TV. 

A week before the international break, Pep texted you. He hadn’t texted you since pre-season. You jumped up when you saw the notification with his name Coach P. He asked how you were and praised your first quarter of the season. You told him you had seen his games and were rooting for them to take over the first spot by the end of the season. You asked him how he was. He replied after a minute that he was doing fine, busy as usual, but something had kept bothering him. You asked what was bothering him, surprised he was actually having a conversation with you on text besides football. 

< I keep thinking about you and the move you pulled on me>

You answered with a question  

<In a good way or a bad way?>

<Both> he replied right away.

 <If it’s any consolation, I think about you too> you sent back, you were nervous and excited. He liked you, he thought about you, more than you had thought. You were almost about to squeal.

<That’s the least you could do> 

You didn’t know what to reply but he texted you again before you could reply

<I’m going to be in Barcelona for two days during your international break, I know you are not called up for your National Team. I would like to see you, if possible> 

You had to reread your message three times before you screamed and kicked the air multiple times. Can fantasies come true?, you thought.

<I don’t know if I can, but yes, call me and maybe we can figure it out> 

<I’ll call you tomorrow afternoon, good night>

<night!>

You almost didn’t sleep that night, thinking about seeing him again, trying to plan conversations because you were sure you were going to be a hot mess if you indeed saw each other, and you always reverted to small talk when you couldn't think straight. The elevator opened on the 10th floor, you looked for the room and opened the door with your card key. This was a big suite room. It had an entrance with a small living room, and the bed was in another room. “Hola?” you sang a bit loud while you closed the door, “Estoy aquí” (I’m here). You looked around moving slowly. You were really nervous, you had thought about this for so long that the idea of it finally happening scared you a bit. Pep entered the room from the bedroom and stopped to look at you and said “Hello” with a small smile. He was wearing a black turtleneck with gray pants and black shoes, he looked sophisticated but unassuming. You felt a small jolt down your spine when you saw him but tried to play it cool. “Hi” you replied and flashed him a small wave. The last time you saw him you felt so powerful and dominant, sure you could make him yours for a bit, but now you were feeling overwhelmed. He came over to give you customary kisses on each cheek and asked how you were, you said you were fine, trying to sound convincing.  

He took a big breath and asked “Would you like something to drink?”

“Sure, what are you having?”

“A whiskey on the rocks” “I’ll have the same” you replied

He went to the room’s kitchenette to serve your drinks while you looked around the room, admiring the colors of the room and the chic furniture.

“How was the trip here?”

“It was fine, shorter than I remembered”

“Good”

“And the hotel where I’m staying is nice, very modern and hip”

Not the small talk, you thought. 

He came over and handed you your drink. “Cheers” you said as you offered your glass “Cheers” he said and he gently touched his glass with yours. You both had a sip of your drinks while you looked at each other, there were nerves in the air. “Do you want to sit down?” he asked and he took his hand to your back to guide you to the sofa next to you.

“Okay” you said as you went in front of him to sit.

You sat and drank half your whiskey right away. 

“Is everything okay?” Pep said and sits next to you “Do you want to leave?” he said as to let you know he noticed you were different. 

“Why do you say that?” you said surprised

“Well, you barely talked or moved, you seem…uncomfortable” Pep explained as he drank some whiskey.

“Oh. I’m just feeling a bit nervous to be honest. And, no, I don’t want to leave” you replied. You wish you could control the awkwardness and you were failing but you needed him to know you wanted to be there too.

 Last time you were in a room together you felt you had nothing to lose, that you probably would never see or speak to each other again. This time it didn’t feel like that, your aggressive behavior was suppressed by the possibilities of what could be said and done there.

“Y/N, How can you be nervous when you look like this?” asked Pep pointing at your outfit and face. He was more than attracted to what he saw.

“ It doesn’t matter, being alone here with you is making me feel a bit on edge” you said, you were always honest and direct with him, it was better this way, you liked it that way.

Pep chuckled and brushed his lips on the cheek close to your lip to give you a small kiss. You let out a short, shy, quiet giggle.

“There’s nothing to be nervous about, hermosa” he says as he caresses your profile with his fingers “we’re here to hang out, right?” “Um, yea” you said while your hand went looking for the one touching your face. You took it into yours while looking at him. “Is that what we’re here for? I wasn’t exactly sure”

“We can do whatever you want” he said while interlacing his fingers with yours and pulling you towards him, putting his other hand on your naked thigh

“Is that true?” you asked, feeling a warmness all over your body induced by his touch “You arranged this whole thing to do whatever I say?”  He nodded.

“So if I say ‘Pep, let’s just get drunk and watch TV’, you’re okay with that?” you asked, testing him. He stared at your soft pink lipgloss-covered mouth “Yes,” he said while the hand that was on your thigh comes towards your face and he traces your bottom lip with his index finger “Is that what you want to do?” 

 “Right now?” your heart was running even if you were seated. You looked at his mouth, he had a cocky smirk on it “No.” You didn’t feel nervous at all, it had faded away completely and you could only feel a yearning for him and his touch. His hand was now grazing your hair.

“Would you like me to kiss you?” he said, his face got close to yours.

You touched his chin with your bottom lip “Yes, I would”.  You were ready and eager, and it seemed that he was too.

He took you by your hair and gently placed his lips on yours, slightly opening his mouth right after while placing a deeper kiss. You felt liberated from any feelings that were holding you back and with a deep breath you open your mouth even more to slip your tongue into his mouth, finding and trying to dominate his. He let out a small groan. You separate from the kiss and said “Sit back”. He did and you mounted him, legs open as much as you could on the sofa, your core on top of the area his member should be. “Not nervous anymore? he said while looking up at you “Mm-mm” you said as you puckered up a smile and shook your head. He started kissing your breasts over your clothes, lips leaving wet traces on your exposed chest and neck. You were panting with desire, reacting to his touch. You couldn’t take it anymore and kissed him again furiously, lips and tongue making a sloppy mess all over his own. You pulled back to take off your top and bra in a lust-filled hurry, you wanted it all off. “Fuck, look at you” he said when he sees your naked torso. “Let me take this off” you said, tugging at the hem of his shirt. Once off, he pulled you towards him and kissed you, hand on your waist, your breasts touching his chest. You could now feel him getting hard, poking you, you moaned into his mouth while you moved your hips back and forth. You weren't thinking about anything, just feeling, letting yourself go. “I need you naked and on my bed, now” he said in between kisses. “That can be done” you said in between jumpy breaths. You unmounted him and took the rest of your clothes off except your panties while walking to the bedroom. “Ven” (come on) you said looking back, both to give your command while looking at him, but also because you really wanted to know if he was into it as much as you were. He looked flustered but ready, his eyes darker than ever, pupils dilated. He was smitten by you. You sat on the corner of the bed, legs crossed and waiting for him to come to you. You now felt the rush of carnal tension and curiosity, you had thought about this moment for so long, and you were confident it was going to be worth every minute you waited for it, or at least hoped. Pep walked over barefooted and only wearing his pants. You took off your panties slowly and crossed your legs again while he watches, you love flirting with your body.

“You’re a dream, you know? So beautiful. I’ve been thinking about you for months” he said, opening your legs while you let a seductive smile be drawn by his words “Now, let me have that pussy of yours”. You let out a big breath, barely able to breathe at a regular pace after you see his head hide in between your legs and feel his warm tongue almost make out with your slit, making you let uncontrollable moans out of your mouth. “Are you always going to be so wet for me?” he asked while still in between your legs “Alw-shit-always” you try to say while he attacks your clit with his tongue.

“Jodeeeeer!” He groaned as he came all over your back and collapsed on the bed following your mutual orgasm. The leftover waves of pleasure still made you jerk your hips. You held your core with your right hand thinking of how intense it felt. This man wanted you, desired you, kissed, bit and sucked everything he could, said the sexiest praises in your ear and pounded you like he was never going to fuck you again. He made you come hard and twice. You laid next to him, he was still panting while looking at the ceiling, looking fucked out. You looked at him, still trying to catch your breath, and gently kissed his shoulder. “If we ever do that again I might have to be your permanent side chick” you said while laughing mid way through the sentence and stumbling through the last three words. He looked at you and smiled, he planted a small kiss on your cheek, and said “That’s exactly why you need to go to your own hotel tonight”. You frowned, that sentence actually hurt your feelings. It didn’t feel like a joke, just a warning. You felt disposable, used, you felt like you just connected and he was telling you to fuck off.

“Well, you at least should have waited until I cleaned your cum off my body before you started kicking me out’ you said, annoyed as you sat up.

“That’s not what I meant“ said Pep as he sat up and shook his head

You stood up from the bed “Oh, I think you said what you meant. Having post-nut clarity, are we? That’s ok. I’m getting some myself. I’ll clean up and be on my way back to my hotel” you said in an anger-flared rush “Would you calm down and listen?” he said, you were officially mad now, you were known for losing your cool. He knew that you went from zero to sixty in three seconds.

“You should know by now, old man, that you don’t tell women to calm down when they are mad” you said and walked away from him “Oh for fuck’s sake, venga ya, mujer! Esto no es un puto partido para estar peleando tanto” you heard him say as you entered the room’s bathroom (Come on, woman! This isn’t a fucking match to be fighting this much)

 You took the first towel that you saw and threw it on the floor while grunting “Asshole!” and just stared at it for a minute. You didn’t expect anything specific from this night, but to feel like someone’s cum bucket wasn’t it. You were livid and sad at the same time. How could you be so stupid? Why would you have a crush on a married man? “Y/N” said a voice behind you. You turned to see him by the bathroom door

“What?” you snapped like a teenager talking back to their parents

“Look, I’m not saying you have to go now, I wasn’t clear. It’s just not a good idea for you to stay here. I actually want you here. Please, don’t be upset”  he said as he slowly got closer and closer to your naked body with every word. “Well, whatever, I think I'll leave now. I don’t think I want to stay here with you” you said still feeling defensive. “Stop trying to fight me, Y/N. If what I said hurt your feelings, I apologize. I wasn’t trying to kick you out. I want you to be here and hang out a bit more, and maybe we can see each other in the morning before you leave. You just can’t sleep here, that’s all. Remember, I’m not single like you” he said as he stroked your bare arms, as to comfort you in some way. “ I wasn’t planning on sleeping here, anyway” you said with a pout. He held your face and said “You’re so cute when you pout, you hot head” Pep pressed his lips against yours, and his naked body pressed itself against yours. You felt your body melt a little with his kiss. He had experience cooling women down from a mad mood, you could tell. You kissed him back, your mouth wanting his, expecting some tenderness. He separated himself from you and said “Let’s clean you up, I’ll help you” and he did. 

You shared a hot shower, washing and touching each other softly, caressing as you both cleaned each other, stopping only to kiss under the water every now and then. Just as fast as you got a hot head, you had calmed down and felt totally at ease. It felt so good to be pampered that you just had to say something because both of you were so concentrated on the task at hand that you barely talked. You took a second to hug him and lay your head on his chest, “This feels so nice” you said as you sigh. He gave you a small kiss on your hair and caressed your wet back. It felt so intimate and close, even more than just fucking each other, like something a real long-term couple would do. You barely had experienced anything close to this. All your relationships had been short, casual, or long distanced. You decided to keep washing him and get some more soap to wash his chest, stomach and reached to clean his member, when you washed him, he got hard as you moved your hand to make it clean. You smiled, it tickled you so that he was so turned on by you. “Is that for me?” you said as you grab his hard cock

“If you want it” 

“So bad” you said and let water hit it so that the soap comes off. You got down, and then you let your tongue traces its whole shape, as it twitched slightly from your tongue's touch. You grabbed the base of it with your hand, while you put the rest of it in your mouth, tasting the tip with your tongue. You couldn’t believe how hard he was. The warm water kept washing over you as you kept sucking and licking him, he kept looking at you while small deep groans came out of him, you enjoyed having him there in your mouth, seeing him trying to look at you while fighting his eyes from closing from the feeling that came from your action, small noises leaving his throat.  

“ I haven’t been this hard in years. God, you’re so good at that, Y/N”

“am I?” you said while stroking him harder, going in to suck him faster, if you liked one thing, it was his praises. Your tongue licked him up and down while one hand stroked him and the other one massaged his balls.

“Oh Fuck—Yes” he said

“Are you going to come in my mouth to show me how good I am?” you said keeping a fast pace

“Joder—keep going”

“mhmmm” you said mouth full of cock, hand doing circles around the bottom of his cock

“Me vas a hacer correr” (you’re going to make me come)

“Come in my mouth” you said quickly and kept sucking him off. You felt his cock getting harder in your mouth, Looking up, seeing his wet body and face, looking at him squeeze himself with his hands on his waist, grunting. It only took ten more seconds for him to fill your mouth and throat with all his thick juices, quiet groans in the air, you swallowed part of it and spat the other and licked his tip slowly, staring at him flinch from the intense feelings while you did. You loved having this power, making hard, making him come whenever you wanted, and the flattery that came after. “You are ridiculous” he said grabbing your face by your chin, part of it with his cum on it, and kissed you softly “I’ll take that as a compliment” you said afterward.

You stayed a while longer in bed after getting dressed, TV on but getting ignored by you both. You talked, made out in between conversations, put your hands on each other every moment you remembered this was temporary. You usually initiated the kissing, but he always kissed you back like a happy young man with his first girl, holding your face, or your neck, or your ass or your waist, fingers tracing the shape of your body. When you started feeling the heaviness of sleep crawling in you jumped up and said “I’m going back to my hotel room, I’m getting sleepy. it’s a five minute taxi ride but you know, it’s late” and walked to the door with him following you

“Ok, I’ll come by tomorrow to see you and say good-bye, okay?” he said walking you the door holding just one of your fingers with his hand.

You picked up the purse you had on a table near the door. You kissed him as to say goodbye you said, “I’ll see you tomorrow, Pep” and gave him a small smile before you left.

“Adiós, querida” he said as he closed the door behind you

The elevator ride down to the lobby had you thinking you liked him more than you should but you stretched your back and fixed your posture as you tried to reject this idea from your head. 

You let a small sigh come out of your mouth as the elevator doors opened. You couldn’t wait to see him tomorrow.

The Mysterious Fistbump Goes To The Footie! 

[ID: Three images; in the first, the Chicago skyline at night shows a skyscraper lit up red and blue with “Go Chicago Fire FC”; in the second, smoke from fireworks drifts over the field, and in the third I am taking a selfie, face obscured by the fake fur on the hood of my parka.]

I did not realize when I bought my ticket that it was for the season opener, but I’m glad I went! It was a good time, I got a free flag, and one of the buildings that always lights up with messages was adorned as above while I was walking home. (Anon who sent me the ask about homohobic chants -- more on that later, there’s a post I’m working on about it, but the short version is while I didn’t hear that chant, we also didn’t have any straight penalty kicks at goal. I didn’t hear it during corner kicks, and there was some pretty intense messaging about bigoted chants, so I’ll keep you posted.) 

I almost didn’t go, because it was cold and rainy, but the rain was due to clear up right as the match started and I had my big red waterproof parka on, so I came through fine. For the National Anthem they had a mariachi band, which was awesome and they did a great job. The stadium wheeled four big red stars (for the stars on the Chicago flag) out onto the field, which went off with sparks and gouts of flame and rockets while the anthem was going on. 

I grew up attending San Francisco Giants and Oakland A’s games in MASSIVE west coast stadiums, so I’m always shocked by how small Chicago stadiums are -- Wrigley Field is quite intimate and Soldier Field is on the small side as well. I was pretty close so I got a good vantage on about 90% of the action, and had a nice view of the south curve, where the hardcore fans were. I’ve never been to a pro match in person, so I was a little startled by how passionate the fans are -- there’s so much more constant emotion than a football or baseball game, much more extreme reactions. I’ve never heard that much booing during a single sporting event in my life but, as I mentioned to my seat neighbor (a nice woman about my age who was there with her teenage daughter), “The ref doesn’t seem to understand that it’s possible to foul a Chicago Fire player.” There were so many uncalled fouls, good lord. 

Also all those motherfuckers are fast and they are gymnastic. At one point a NYC player jumped up to head the ball and did a full-on forward flip over the Chicago player blocking him. The grass was super wet because of all the rain, so there was a lot of slip-sliding around. I’m never not impressed by pro athletes and what they can make their bodies do, but you rarely see it so plainly. I tend to pick one or two players on any given team that I kind of follow more intently than most -- I came to AS Roma following Mourinho (the manager) but Dybala and Abraham are kind of “my” players, although I’m also very fond of Smalling and I was sad to see Zaniolo leave. I have a feeling Chris Mueller, a forward who is a homegrown Schaumberg boy, is going to be my Chicago Fire Guy. He’s not particularly big but he’s fast and good with the ball, and he pulls the eye when he’s on the field. 

Anyway we tied, which given we were down a goal for most of the game I will accept happily, and I had a good time. Though I do think I will wait until it’s a trifle warmer before going to another one.

Do you have any fan casts or strong takes/feelings on the foxes’ appearances? Fandom tends to use the same Pinterest models, which feels wrong to me.

i do in fact! i've actually been meaning to make a post about how i choose to write all of the foxes' ethnicities anyway

but yes i absolutely agree that the typical pinterest model types u generally see on edits is not how i see any of them. nor is reece king or froy gutierrez or lucky blue smith one of my FCs for anyone

for a lot of them i don't necessarily have a single specific FC so much as i have like,, a general impression of features that i will see on various different people, who all may look wildly different from each other or who may not even look how i see the character as a whole but do have a specific feature i associate with them. mostly it boils down to the Energy i get tbh and that's just a Feeling i cant even explain

fun fact im a tiny bit face blind so that might account for some of why i'm so all-over about this

may as well go chronologically. some of them i definitely have more thoughts on than others

1. Dan

ethnicity: Afro Native (Sioux)

features: medium dark skin. buzzcut, killer fade. she often styles it in waves. she's very butch, wears a lot of basketball and cargo shorts, tank tops and flannels and jerseys, hiking boots. skinny but muscular, with a very rectangular body shape. defined jaw. probably like 5'4 or 5'5

FC/Energy: sometimes i get some dan energy out of janelle monae but more butch. lotta dan energy out of samira wiley. lashana lynch

2. Kevin

ethnicity: a lot of things tbd, but he's pretty multi-ethnic. i like the idea of kayleigh being half- or a quarter-japanese in addition to irish because it gives her more of a reason to go to japan for her undergrad. wymack is from d.c. which is a majority black city for its actual residents, but i also like the idea of him being Pasifika/Hawaiian. HOWEVER - and this is pretty important to my read of kevin's character - he's white passing, and has been mostly treated as a white guy who tans his whole life, like occasionally asked if he's italian maybe. learning that his father was a Distinctly Not White Man was a big shock to him.

kristin kreuk, lindsay price, phoebe cates, and marie digby are all half-asian actresses i base kayleigh on

i suppose i base his story partially on broadway actress carol channing, who revealed publically that she was a quarter black when she was like 80 years old. though maybe wentworth miller, a biracial actor who knows his father is black but also doesn't know him, is more accurate to kevin's story. then keanu reeves is a white passing actor with asian ancestry

also none of these people look anything like how i picture kevin lol. kevin is just like,, a guy. handsome ig. but kind of in a CW character kind of way

actually

kevin looks exactly like young jason momoa

3. Andrew

ethnicity: kayin/karen from myanmar

features: fat and muscular, very wide and heavy. this blog is basically all andrew body type refs. medium-olive skin, has a bit of a greyish tinge that makes him look a bit eerie or unhealthy. deep set, droopy eyes; looks so tired. flat face with a low-bridged nose. crooked teeth, especially his canines. natural hair black-ish but he bleaches it light blond. has the beginnings of martial artist punching callouses in his knuckles

FC/Energy: holy shit the characters i feel have Andrew Energy are all over the place. pedro pascal. babe ruth (yes fr). oddjob (harold sakata) from goldfinger. the jinn (mousa kraish) from american gods. gaear grimsrud (peter stormare) from fargo. takeshi kovacs (joel kinnaman) from altered carbon. and i wanna be clear, it's these characters specifically, and generally NOT the actors outside of that specific role. except pedro ❤️

4. Matt

ethnicity: cuban

appearance: matt has more of an Energy than specific features to me rn. that energy is Warm. he has that Warm bro jock dude energy. kind of a marvel hero build, hunky and muscular. very rectangular face. has this haircut:

5. Aaron

i get to cut myself some slack and not go AS in depth about aaron because he and andrew are identical twins

ethnicity: kayin/karen from myanmar

appearance: similar build to andrew, less confident and casual posture and body language. less apathetically murderous and more emotive expressions. better teeth bc his mom took him to the dentist. yes also bleaches his hair

celebrities: probably a lot like the difference between the characters and the actors. andrew is the characters and aaron is how the actors actually look. idk ive never looked at someone and thought 'hey! looks like aaron!'

6. Seth

ethnicity: have been going with half-vietnamese. considering looking into various south asian possibilities like pakistani

appearance: string bean build. that's all i have to offer

7. Allison

ethnicity: allison's very up in the air for me. she and seth are the two foxes i feel fine with being white, but im committing to having no white foxes sooo. i would say i generally see her as either half-middle eastern or chinese

appearance: plus sized and hourglass shaped. heart shaped face. taller, like 5'8 or 5'9. she has a pretty fraught history with her appearance and her parents payed for/pressured her into getting a nose job to have a 'prettier' nose. she also bleaches her hair blonde. she gets it done at a salon tho the twinyards do it in their bathroom

FC/Energy: elle king and nadia aboulhosn are my main inspos for her, esp body type but nadia esp in Vibes

8. Nicky

ethnicity: multi-ethnic. his mother is southern mexican Indigenous, possibly oaxacan. his father is mixed white/kayin

appearance: definitely takes after his mother while his father is white passing. dark brown skin, warm undertones. slightly stocky build. tall ovular head and thin aquiline nose. he's kind of just,, the opposite of the twins ig, so like their facial features look very different, which is a big part of why people don't make the connection between him and the twins alongside the difference in their skin tones, heights, and builds. nicky's build and features are very vertically-oriented, with a tall head, narrow-set eyes, thin nose with a high bridge, etc. the twins are horizontally-orienged, with broad, flat faces, wide-set eyes, wide noses with a low bridge, etc.

FC/Energy: yalitza aparicio, not a guy but one of the few Mexican Indigenous stars in the film industry and i really like her features for nicky. she's oaxacan

9. Renee

ethnicity: Black. african american

appearance: plus sized, circular/apple body shape. round face. dark skin. microlocs to a bit past her chin, bleached white and dyed at the ends. she and allison go to the salon together. femme but plain style, a lot of blouses and long skirts, practical shoes. knuckle callouses. about 5'6

FC/Energy: dominique fishback. tracie thoms, esp in RENT. gabourey sidibe. nicole byer, but not in Energy. brandy, for some reason, probably bc i think she has very serene Energy and is a little bit otherworldly. like if brandy played arwen or galadriel from lotr it would make perfect sense to me, and that's the Renee Energy™️

10. Neil

ethnicity: mixed. Black/Jewish on both sides. his father is polish ashkenazi and afro-brazilian. his mother is Black British and algerian jewish

appearance: very... sharp. like sharp all over. does that make sense? sharp features, sharp face shape, sharp angles to his body. he's got what i vaguely think of as a 'basketball build' not meaning tall but meaning very rangy and angular and lean. all limbs. seth has a similar build. lighter brown skin. he has waardenburg syndrome which is actually where he gets he gets his eye color, and his eyes are very large and widely spaced as well. freckles freckles freckles. freckles everywhere. 4a hair but at least during canon it's not very healthy and thus the curls aren't well-defined. he grows it out long enough to tie back and starts taking better care of it in post-canon. wonky, slightly crooked teeth, with a gap between the fronts

FC/Energy: now neil i actually have a ton for. mostly models which im a lil ashamed of bc i do try to draw more from athletes. alton mason is a main body type ref. mugsy bogues is good to see what i mean about the basketball build without the height. here're the boys: cykeem white, luka sabbat, désiré mia, Leo Hoyte-Egan, dylan hasselbaink, this beautiful stock photo model i've never been able to track down

i think about him every. goddamn. day.

in terms of like,, real ppl and not models: corbin bleu, especially during Jump In. figure skater elladj balde. rayan "ray ray" lopez from mindless behavior. A$AP Rocky a lil bit, maybe i just like his hairstyle idk

two more models i think are important: carissa pinkston and ralph souffrant

[thank you @dwead-piwate-meggers and the anons who sent asks! i was gonna answer all these great questions anyway for oc building so i’m sharing 💕]

name: angelica vaughan age: 26 pronouns: she/her hometown: lleanelli occupation: aspiring thriller-horror (screen)writer love interest(s): vinh, nyra, atticus bff(s): adegoke fc: benedetta gargari

What made them apply for Body Count & what are they hoping to get out of the experience? She was feeling lost, and she hopes the experience will give her some needed clarity and sense of direction.

How do they take their tea (or coffee)? [x] Is more of a coffee person-- specifically cappuccino, but at home she usually just drinks moka coffee with milk (sometimes regular, sometimes rice milk) and sugar [#3 or #4]. If she drinks tea it’s usually earl gray or black with just honey.

How regularly do they swear? [x] Only when upset/angry, and usually in Italian (but will throw in a ‘fuck’ here and there or some terrible bri ish curses). 

How do they prefer their toast? [x] Anything between D 3-5 and E 3-5 is cool. If you give her something burnt she will not eat it, if you give her something untoasted she will throw it at you.

If Body Count had a Big Brother-style vote to kick someone out, who would they vote out right now? [x] Florrie, probably. Too much chaos and too much noise. 

Are they a “you can call me anytime” person, or a “phone permanently on silent” person? [x] Is simply too busy to be a “call me anytime” kind of person and also usually leaves her phone on silent/dnd, but will reply to your messages as soon as she sees them.

How do they celebrate their birthday? [x] Nice dinner with close friends (elegant but still casual, nothing to fancy but definitely not ‘rowdy’) and a separate dinner with family that isn’t really optional being Italian.

Can they drive? [x] Yes, and she’s the sensible/safe driver (even a bit too cautious tbh). She prefers cycling, when possible.

I want a baby meme! What does your MC say? [x] “We only have like £12 combined.”

What did they wear on the first day in the villa? [x] She let Florrie pick an outfit for her because she doesn’t feel fashionable enough. High-waisted shorts and a flowy printed shirt, something cute and a bit vintage! There are some fashion refs here. 

What is their opinion on Eurovision? [x] Gets very into it, watches every year and gets mad when she disagrees with the winners. Obviously team Italy.

Who/what is their favourite musical artist? [x] Probably Artic Monkeys/similar (I’m not an expert so I can’t give specifics)

What is their cultural/ethnic background? [x] She’s white, her dad is of Italian and Welsh origins while her mom’s full Italian (from Lazio). 

Would they be willing to move to their RO’s city, or would they prefer that their RO move to Manchester with them? [x] That would depend on both the RO and the circumstances; she would be willing to move/compromise but would wanna discuss all the pros & cons it together and take her own career in consideration before making a choice. But she’s not particularly tied to Manchester.

Are they quiet on their feet, or are they an elephant in disguise? [x] A very normal footfall / could be quieter if she wanted to.

What is their eye colour? [x] Light green.

How did they end up in Manchester? (Derived from: where do the ROs live? [x]) Got a job interview, it went well, so she hopped on a train.

What kind of accent do they have? (Yes, this still applies if they’re not British!) [x] It’s a bit of a mix! She’s lived in Italy as a child and then moved to her father’s hometown (but continued visiting Italy during the summers); her father knows italian but doesn’t speak it fluently, he has a very strong Welsh accent, while her mother has an accent but speaks english almost as a first language since she’s always travelled. Angie doesn’t have a strong italian accent and you wouldn’t notice it immediately until she pronounce certain words, same way she doesn’t have the strongest Welsh accent but you can still hear it in some sounds!

If they were a videogame character, what loot item would they drop? [x] Notepad and colouring pens.

Do they return their shopping trolley? [x] She’s not a heathen, of course she returns the cart!

How meme-literate are they? [x] Selectively online so she misses most memes and doesn’t really care.

Under normal circumstances, how loyal are they to their partners? [x] 10/10 loyal but not to the point of stupidity.

What is their zodiac sign? (Bonus question: do they believe in astrology?) [x] Virgo sun. Very firm about not believing in astrology.

Do they like to dance? [x] Only dances at social events and depending on the type of dance she could feel a bit self-conscious (like, club dancing isn’t her style). Definitely up for dancing randomly in an intimate/domestic setting though!

How likely are they to lend their jacket when their RO is cold? [x] 100% would be the meme of the one covering her so in clothes while simultaneosly scolding them for not dressing appropriately.

Where do they fit on the Jock-Nerd vs. Goth-Prep alignment chart? [x] Somewhere in Nerd-Prep, really close to Adegoke.

What do they use as a bookmark? [x] A fancy bookmark. If she sees a dog ear she might scream.

True or false: “If I run and leap at MC, they will most certainly catch me in their arms.” [x] Tries to catch them but fails because their arms are limp noodles.

What would they sing at karaoke? [x] She would not sing at karaoke.

How did they do in school? [x] Total nerd, worked very hard and got excellent grades.

What is their 1am convenience store snack run purchase? (Bonus question: if not British, what snack food from home do they miss most?) [x] She tried Italian food, she’s not touching british snacks with a 10ft pole<3

What does their apartment/bedroom look like? [x] Boho decor, light walls and neutral colours with some plants, a lot of cute decorations and books etc... but not enough that the place looks crammed since she hates mess. Lots of scented candles. Artsy-chic vibes, just like in her wardrobe.

What would they wear to a fancy event? [x] A formal/fancy jumpsuit.

Are they a dog person, a cat person, or a rock person? [x] Cat, but likes both. Generally prefers cats because they’re more lowkey and she’s a bit too busy to give proper attention to a dog.

What is their love language? [x]  Words of Affirmation/Quality Time   (giving) and Quality Time/Acts of Service (receiving)

What is their MBTI type? [x] ISTJ-T

If you had to assign them one song, what would it be? [x] Tongue Tied by Iwan Rheon // Ophelia by The Lumineers

Give us a few funky facts about their family background! [x] TBD

Are they a big spoon, a little spoon, a versatile spoon, or a knife? [x] Not a fan of spooning, it’s a bit too clingy. She’s fine with spooning for like the evening while watching a movie or something, but wouldn’t wanna fall asleep like that. Not exactly a knife, likes sleeping shoulder-to-shoulder but with some distance.

What are their feelings on piercings and tattoos? Do they have any? [x] Has a couple of very small cutesy tattoos and earrings. She doesn’t like extreme body mods on hereself, but is totally fine and can appreciate it in other people!

Do they want to get married someday? Would they rather propose or be proposed to? [x] Says she doesn’t care but secretly really wants to; would rather be proposed to but would prefer discussing it together beforehand.

Don’t fuck this up meme! Where do they fall? [x] Will try not to fuck up and probably won’t.

What is their favourite animal and why? [x] Squirrels. They have relatable nervous energy. And they’re cute.

Would they be willing to wear coordinating couple’s outfits with their RO? [x] If it’s something she’s comfortable wearing she wouldn’t mind.

Where do they fall on the cuddle scale? [x] Rarely initiates but actually loves cudding (exclusively in private and only in a serious relationship). Still needs to have her space but would do fairly well with a very cuddly so as long as they don’t go too hard when it comes to PDA.

I Demand Iru Facts (if you’re up for it ofc!)

A

Yes I am up for it! I don’t think I talk nearly enough about my fcs here but I think I wanna change that. At the very least it will be the problem of everyone following me here and not just my cool and epic Discord friends. That being said I’m gonna just share the major info about him before/instead of just giving facts bc otherwise nothing will make sense. That’s just how it is with a lot of my stuff. This gets super long because I am bad at keeping stuff brief and in general there’s just a lot to him, whoops... Looks like I’ll be using another readmore tonight.

Iru was an Umbramaker! They are bootleg Mirror World Starcutters, which Mirror Halcandra definitely designed on their own and not by stealing and subsequently copying Overworld Halcandra’s Starcutter blueprints. To be fair, there are a few differences, but most of them are just aesthetic and don’t really change much. Anyways, Iru was specifically designed for disaster relief and material transportation. That’s why, if you have seen his refs, he had those two big mechanical arms. Very useful for moving rubble or lifting large pieces of metal for use in construction. Nowadays they... aren’t used for such beneficial things, though...

Like their Overworld counterparts, Umbramaker AIs are programmed to learn from their environment and the people around them, which is pretty useful! At least it is until one spends a lot of time around someone who’s not a great person, and subsequently picks up habits and ideas that make them insufferable! That’s what happened to Iru. He’s misogynistic and a thot, self-centered, inconsiderate, manipulative, generally annoying, and blames people not liking him on jealousy or misunderstanding. So, in other words, an incel minus anything literally sexual. Obviously that was a problem, and it got to the point that basically everyone who knew him had negative feelings toward him, other than the guy who rubbed off on him. He died though, and Iru didn’t really care at the time. But everyone hated him, and it really fucked up his relationships with other Umbramakers, most notably leading to him being broken up with by another ship he had been “dating” (Umbramakers can’t really date because of a lot of reasons but their relationship had that vibe), who had discovered she was biromantic and also couldn’t stand what Iru had become.

Iru was already pretty fucking hurt and pissed over that, except she then went on to spread rumors about him being involved in anti-government activities. Which, well, Mirror Halcandra didn’t take lightly, on top of having already been looking for excuses to “recycle” (see: kill and repurpose the parts of) Iru because he and his obnoxious personality were getting in the way of efficiency and productivity. There wasn’t any proof that he’d actually done anything wrong, but basically anyone who disliked Iru was saying it was true... which was just about anyone who had known him for more than 10 minutes. Given it was his word against the vast majority, and Umbramakers weren’t even considered to be people(mush like Starcutters in the Overworld), it probably isn’t difficult to guess how things went for him. There was no trial, and in fact they literally turned his voice off to make him shut up. Then his AI was shut off and he was taken to be disassembled.

At an earlier time in Mirror Halcandra’s history, his story would have ended here. This was not an earlier time, though. See, the truth is, such treatment of Umbramakers wasn’t extremely unusual. Despite having emotions and thoughts and relationships and all that, they were still viewed as nothing more than your average computer, just in a larger form. Unlike Overworld Halcandra, which was and still is doing less than great financially, Mirror Halcandra could afford to replace their toys as soon as they showed signs of breaking or underperforming. It happened often enough that they reached a point of complacency. During Iru’s disassembly, something was removed improperly, which registered as damage. He woke up, and it wasn’t difficult for him to figure out what was going on.

Another usually useful feature of Umbramakers, which actually wasn’t copied from Starcutters, is their ability to use parts interchangeably, so long as there wasn’t too much of a size difference. Great for the situation of a ship damaging something like, say, a wing; they can use a wing not originally designed for them temporarily until the damaged one is repaired or replaced. Not so great when that allows a now rogue ship to just grab whatever he could attach to himself and then escape the country before preparations could be made to stop him. Negative levels of great when you consider the temporary aspect of using the wrong parts; now you’ve got perfectly fine ships being attacked and having their parts stolen, and storage facilities being raided, for the bastard to keep replacements on hand. Oh, and he also looks like shit because he’s got multiple conflicting aesthetics.

Iru honestly didn’t enjoy living like that. For one, it was uncomfortable physically, even if he’d managed to convince himself that what he was doing wasn’t uncomfortable morally. Secondly, it was just boring! Nobody to talk to or hang out with, all he did was just fly around or plan his next attack/raid for new parts, nothing to shake things up. Sure, the sense of power it gave him was cool; nobody listened to him at all before, but now he had the influence to make people beg. He found satisfaction in being feared by anyone who recognized him. But even that lost its shine after a few decades... Until he connected to the messaging system of another rogue Umbramaker. She was smaller, too small for him to consider getting parts from, and a much older model anyways. She also didn’t know who he was, or what he looked like.

Naturally, he saw this as a huge win, because obviously he was going to get a new gf who wouldn’t betray him like his old one. That didn’t happen though, on account of him still being obnoxious and a creep. Didn’t help that when he finally tracked her down to meet up she was disgusted by him and immediately left. He still kept in touch, against her will, even to the point that you might have called it stalking. Through that, he learned of a Starcutter; she didn’t have the cool and aloof personality he was interested in, but at that point he didn’t care because he was sick of being rejected. Same thing happened again but faster, due to there being no physical encounter because god damnit he forgot the milfs can communicate with each other. He still wanted to meet her though, and he did! Mostly to find out more about the other Umbramaker’s whereabouts, and as an added bonus he tricked the Starcutter’s pilot into giving him admin rights over himself! Threats really work wonders, huh?

That was all fine and good, and by now he’d taken to vibing outside the Mirror World because that’s what the other two were doing. One day he spotted the Starcutter again, and took to following her around and trying to flirt with her because he’s a fucking creep. He would not admit that it took him several days to realize he had, in fact, been talking to a mimic the entire time. Partly because he was too self absorbed to realize the “Starcutter” not immediately telling him to fuck off was unusual, because he assumed he’d charmed her. The mimic was just as confused as he was, honestly; usually they fail to keep up the act to a convincing degree for so long around people who know the real ship that they’re imitating. Even more confusing was the fact that when they were found out, Iru didn’t try to attack them or something. No, he actually stuck around for some reason, casually ignoring murder because he finally found someone who didn’t hate him.

The two become what could arguably be considered friends, and eventually Iru opens up about himself and his old life and how much it sucked to be him and how sick he was of the monotony of his existence and probably some overdramatic stuff mixed in with all that. The mimic hears all that and keeps it in mind for later. Stuff gets more difficult for Iru as parts that fit him become better guarded and the ships he could steal from get harder to find. His raids become riskier, and eventually the mimic decided enough was enough and points out that he can’t keep that up forever. Iru is like “oh wow thanks for the advice /s”, until the mimic introduces the concept of him becoming a mimic. It takes a solid not-even-an-hour to convince him that that’d be preferable were it possible. In the process he delivered a powerful and emotional monologue, which the mimic didn’t care about because look, they figured out how to get the monster juice out of themself that’d make him a fellow disgusting flesh boat! Iru is offended but also takes the chance for a better life.

Currently, he’s living at some point a few weeks after that, much to everyone’s dismay.

And that’s how Iru became a vile meat creature after having already become a horrible Frankenstein’s monster of different ships’ parts! The moral of the story is, if you’re gonna kill someone, do it right, or else they might defy the laws of nature, science, and the government to become physically capable of biting you in the ass.
