I should be working on literally all my other stuff but also I was reading Single Dad Simon, by shotmrmiller (go read it. Now!!) and got inspired. Problem is…. I also got inspired by the Walking Dead sooooooooooooo

TW: Zombies, slightly edited and kinda abrupt ending

You can’t believe your luck. You really can’t, you’ve been running on fumes trying to survive this nightmare of a planet. No one believed that zombies could exist, you faintly remember the rumors that sprouted up in America. But no one paid attention to it, why would they? Man eating monsters that cause an infection to burn through your body making you turn on your loved ones? Yeah… sure, buddy.

Unfortunately for you, and everyone else, it’s real though. Very fucking real especially with the hoard that’s barreling down your way. They’re groaning and moaning, skin a sickly color and black gums signaling their infection along with clouded, starving eyes. Surprisingly for their decaying minds and body they can still run and if you were of the more athletic figure then maybe you’d have gotten away quicker.

You ended up shoving yourself through the back entrance of a gas station. Had to leave your backpack of preserves, extra clothing, and bandages behind to fit through since the damn door wouldn’t open all the way. You didn’t forgo your knife nor your flashlight and you’re glad you kept it on hand. Two dead zombies lay on the ground with single bullet holes through their temple. The hair on your neck prickles at the thought that maybe you aren’t alone. “Shit,” you don’t carry a gun with you, loud noises encourages the dead to come around after all but in times like these… you wish had something more than a knife. You ease around the corner after barricading the back door better so you can take your time exploring.

Your flashlight works fairly well but there are flickering lights on once you get to the front of the store. “Might be a separate generator?” Murmuring to yourself, electricity and water in buildings are rare nowadays. The windows to the gas station are all boarded up haphazardly, quickly even from how there’s blankets strewn across what the boards couldn’t hide. There’s still food in here, not much nutritional wise but beggars can’t be choosers. And there is blood by the register, you check for something bad and you are glad to say there isn’t anything worth a hassle.

It isn’t until you get closer to the breakroom that you hear a noise. A man muttering something in a hushed, quiet voice. His back is towards you but he’s swaying side to side, elbows moving up and down. He’s holding something, he can’t be a zombie his skin isn’t sickly looking. Just a very rich brown, plus no zombie moves like that. With their body decaying so much it’s hard for them to move. Either way, you should probably leave because if he turns around he mi—

Creakkkk

Your eyes widen when the door you were leaning against gives you away. The man jerks around and whips his gun out. The barrel elongated with a silencer, his eyes as sharp as a whip as he zeros in on you. He doesn’t shoot though just stares you down even as you sputter.

“I-I… uh,” waving your hands, “not a zombie, not a zombie!” You fear moving back would make him shot. Him turned to you allows you to see a small bundle in his free arm, tiny little hand wiggling and grasping. “A—“ your words die when his brows narrow. “I’m sorry,” you say quickly, “there’s a hoard out there and I ran in here from the back door to hide, look.” You slowly grab your knife and place it on the floor before kicking it to him. “I’m unarmed.” You say truthfully and you hope he’ll be kind enough to not actually shoot you now.

He flicks down to your knife and then looks back at you. He doesn’t sheath his gun but he does finally speak, “I had that door barricaded.” There’s a calculating look to him that breaks when his baby starts crying a little, poor thing might be hungry or tired or whatever babies do. “Shh, little one,” he murmurs once more but this time he lowers his gun. He must’ve deemed you safe enough and you won’t do anything to ruin that.

“Bad time to have a baby with you, yeah?” Curse your stupid mouth. You’re sweating bullets when he gives you a look. His brow quirked high, eyeing you up and down, a ‘really, right now?’ kinda look to him. You think this might be it since he could take a offense to your remark. He’s got the damn gun after all but… he grins a little.

“Sorry, love,” rolling his eyes as he calms his baby. “Could’t find a babysitter around here, too many bad reviews.”

You blink and then you laugh. A real genuine laugh, “I’ll be on the lookout for one then. I think I saw some numbers when I was running.” You catch a breath you didn’t know escaped you. You’re slow in your descent to sit, you don’t make a move to come closer to him or his baby. Too afraid that you’ll move the wrong way and he’ll shoot you even now after joking.

He only nods a thanks, he looks tired and exhausted. Everyone does but you can’t imagine running around with a baby that’s probably under one. His gun is sheaths to his thigh holster, easy access to grab, as he cups the back of his little one’s head. You can respect the need for easy access, you wish you had your bat still. You lost that one about 2 weeks ago, the wood had splintered as you used it to hit a zombie with riot gear on.

“You alone?”

You perk up once more when he speaks. There’s a warning in the air to tell the truth and you do so willingly. “I’m by myself, sir. I was in a group but that was when this whole mess started. I left when I didn’t think it was safe, they started acting really weird.” Blabbing more when anxious, what can you say? You don’t know him, he doesn’t know you. He could still kill you… “so, yeah… kinda on my own. Well not kinda— more like… am? I mean, I am. That’s not a question but a fact. I just— why are you laughing?”

He listened intently in the beginning but with the way you’re acting he couldn’t stop himself. Makes sense though, he can’t blame you for being worried. “Sorry, thought you were about to talk my ear off. Put my little one right to sleep,” well not really, his baby start snoozing before he asked.

“Well, excuse me for talking.” Grumbling once more and that small grin on his face widens. Your arms crossed as your knee wiggles up and down. After some time you tell him your name and he in turn tells you his.

“Garrick, Kyle Garrick,” saying his name firmly, almost military like. Now that you think about it, he might be military. He has that air about him from how his shoulders are pulled back and he’s standing firm like a rod. He looks pretty athletic too, even with the jeans and hoodie you can tell he’s got muscle.

“Nice to meet you, Kyle.” Leaning back on the wall and you mean it. You can’t remember the last time you spoke to someone or a guy. You feel a bit more at ease now with knowing his name. He’s handsome, that’s for sure, he definitely would’ve turned your head if you saw him walking down the street. Your heart does squeeze when you look to the sleeping little bundle, their mama… what happened to her?

He follows your line of sight, protective in every sense of the word as he holds his baby closer. “You can stay till morning.” He says firmly, “but you’ll leave after. Got it?” His finger taps on his holstered gun and you nod quickly. You knew it was only a matter of time before he said that, at least he’s letting you stay the night.

“Yup,” pointing a thumbs up with no argument in sight, “definitely. No worries on my end.” There’s a corner in the room you could sleep in but also… he might not want you to sleep in here. You stand up slowly, “I’ll sleep in the front.” He watches as you stand and make your way out. You shut the door for him, he doesn’t seem worried about the food in the front. Maybe he’s got a secret stash, you’re not gonna try your luck to see if he does though.

You find a corner in the front, you turn the lights off before trying to get some sleep. You don’t want to attract any unwanted moths and settle in as best as you can. You’d take the blankets off the window but it’s better the glass is covered instead of you. No one alive would be able to peak in and no one dead should be able to either.

Rolling your neck, you sigh when you feel something pop. Your backpack is outside and you’ll have to grab that come first light. Hopefully no one stole it or was kicked around by the dead. You find your sleep after you counted your sheep only to be awoken god knows how many hours later to a screaming baby and groaning against the glass.

Shit

What Task Force 141’s Houses Would Look Like

John Price

- he lives in a cabin I cannot be convinced otherwise.

- very rustic, defo goes fishing or hunting for fun in his spare time

- likes to be away from the city

- its maximalist in kind of an organised chaos way he can find whatever he need’s immediately but to anyone else it looks kind of insane

- he’d be cleaner if he lived with someone - but yaknow #singledad

- very homey, warm vibes

- if the apocalypse ever hit you’d wanna be here, it’s decked out, secluded, he’s a bit of a doomsday prepper

- has once pissed outside to ‘mark his territory’ but you couldn’t torture that information out of him

- defo has that one room that is mysteriously locked and refuses to elaborate on when asked about it (Gaz secretly thinks it’s really cool) (it probably just has his fishing gear)

Kyle “Gaz” Garrick

- very chic, cool tones

- screams “I did economy as an A-Level but I use pinterest”

- probably has had some type of dinner party with the 141 just to subtly flex to them that “in another life I was an interior designer”

- also defo cooks something with wine just, again to subtly flex his culture capital (he just wants some approval guys bless him)

- plant father - cannot be convinced otherwise

- very organised, keeps it pretty clean unless he’s feeling lazy which isn’t very often

- definitely has a record player - do not mention it or he will go on about how it “just sounds better” (with Price in the background nodding in agreement - but in an old man way)

- somewhere has a box of stuff that doesn’t fit his aesthetic but it’s shit he needs to keep anyways

John “Soap Mactavish

- messy as fuck, no rhyme or reason to it he just puts stuff down, forgets its there and thats just where it lives now COUGH man-child COUGH

- puts some of his drawings up on his walls

- defo has a comic book collection and some action figures

- bunch of childhood shit he refuses to throw away - criminal hoarder

- he likes the messy kind of boyish charm it has, every time his mom comes over she scolds him for it

- a bunch of stuff he’s collected from different places he’s gone, he’ll usually grab some stuff while on deployment if he has any free time, like snow globes or whatever

- went to Greece once and got one of those wooden dicks and finds it so funny, he says it’s the living room’s ‘conversation piece’

- he’s pretty clean when on base aswell, it’s just without the millitary’s structure or someone literally forcing him to clean up he doesn’t really care - it’s his house anyways

Simon “Ghost” Riley

- um

- yikes

- yeah you can tell he doesn’t really like spending time at home on leave

- the singular chair infront of the tv is so sad

- king of minimalism - if that’s what you wanna call it ig

- doesn’t bother decorating or getting anything past the bare essentials because what’s the point?

- doesn’t care it’s a shithole, he can afford a better house, but it kind of reminds him of home back in Manchester (crying)

- definitely chain smokes in his bathroom

- he’s got a treadmill there somewhere

- has a box full of his family’s belongings under his bed (crying again)

- no mirrors, only a small one in the bathroom to shave

- only item of decoration is a snow globe Soap gave him once, it sits next to his bed

i’m here to encourage you to please elaborate on singledad!könig

also, do any of their kids have any scuffles with each other? how do the parents and children deal with it?

This ask was sent 10 minutes after the dream daddy post went up. Anon, I adore you.

I was going to put single dad König in this same post, but then it started to go on and on, and I want to take my time with the second half of your ask as well, so all my König thoughts will go in a separate post. Thank you for enabling me :3

(also this is the post I lost 3 paragraphs worth of writing on. It was literally all of Price and Ghost's sections, so forgive me if they're not up to par).

Price: With three kids, there are bound to be spats. Brianna taking something of Alice's without asking, Clara ruining one of the older girls' possessions, etc. etc. People see Price with all girls and remark how peaceful his house must be, but Price (and anybody who has a sister) knows that is NOT true. The Price home is chaos interrupted by periods of peace. Luckily, their dad is a literal military captain, so he's able to whip them into shape. All manner of crying, yelling, and shrieking can be silenced with one singular "GIRLS!" from the man himself. Then after that comes the soothing and the stern talking-tos.

Ghost: I think Simon was great with kids pre-Roba, he had Tommy and then his nephew Joseph. But post-Roba and his work in the special forces, he's much more rough around the edges. Like I said in the main post, Caden is a pretty quiet kid, so I can't see him starting or getting into any trouble. But he is still a 10 year old, so I can see him throwing a fit when he's frustrated or uncomfortable. If this happens in public, Simon will pull him aside and talk to him quite sternly, especially if Caden is making a ruckus as an emotional outlet. In private, he gives Caden space to let it all out, and then talks to him afterwards. However, if Caden can articulate what's upsetting him, he's very gentle and understanding. One way or another, I can see Simon getting help with his PTSD, so he uses a lot of techniques that his therapist taught him with Caden.

Soap: I imagine Elodie as about 6-7 years older than Thomas, who is a literal baby, so I can't see that they get into any fights. Mostly Elodie getting cranky about Thomas getting all the attention, at which point Johnny has to reassure his daughter and give her some love as well. When they're older, Elodie is a classic older sister who fucks with her little brother. She's never truly malicious, but there are definitely times when Johnny's standing in front of them sighing and pinching his nose because Elodie's played a nasty prank on her brother. Johnny's a very picks-his-misbehaving-kid-up-like-a-doll-and-gives-them-a-noogie kind of parent. He's never raised his voice at his kids, but instead has an "if what I think is happening is happening, it better not be" tone that instantly strikes fear into his kids' hearts. I can hear it in my head. I know you guys can hear it in your head too. 'Nuff said.

Gaz: It's hard to say what it's like when Kyle's kids fight: I can see Violet being the sort of girl who is quite close with her younger brother, so I can't really imagine a lot of scenarios in which they would fight. But Elliott is a younger brother and Violet is a growing teenage girl, so there have probably been a few times when Violet got mad at Elliott and screamed at him or said something that she regretted. Kyle and Emily will both scold the kids when they step out of line, and they both do their part when it comes to discipline. Kyle in particular is a very "I'm not mad at you, I'm just disappointed" sort of parent. He expects a lot of Violet, but sometimes that pressure can get to her.

König: This man is overwhelmingly soft for his daughter. The calmest, most gentle giant. I think out of all the dads he's most susceptible to spoiling her, which obviously could become a problem. He's incredibly lucky though, because Ava is an angel. She is spoiled, being an only child on her daddy's colonel salary, but she gives more "kind rich girl" vibes than "inconsiderate little brat". I'm going to elaborate more on this in the upcoming König post, but he's got this deep sadness to him because he lost his wife. Ava is a pretty perceptive child, so she doesn't act out unless she's having a really hard time, in which case König is nothing but soothing and reassuring.

Horangi: If Ryujin (Hong-jin's daughter) has beef with you, he's kicking your ass right alongside her. When she was young, she was fully capable of both starting and finishing fights, and Hong-jin was an incorrigible enabler who was more likely to double over laughing than scold his daughter. Her mother usually had to be the disciplinarian. Hong-jin and Ryujin have a complicated relationship, but in adulthood, they're pretty even keel, and have grown even closer since the death of Ryujin's mom.

Keegan: Jason and Cecelia have been through a lot together, so they don't really fight. When they do though, it's nasty, and Keegan serves as more of a go-between than a disciplinarian role. Both of them will seek advice from him, but he understands that they know each other better than he does. Not for lack of trying, of course, but it's inevitable with older adoptions. His role comes from having more life experience, and he's got a kind of impenetrable chill that makes everybody a lot calmer.

👀😈🧠👩‍🏭???

👀 Do you have any WIPs that you would never let see the light of day? If yes, what are they about?

i have several fic ideas that have just petered out and i'm resigned to not finishing. it's not about not sharing them, it's about making peace with never finishing them. (i also have several fics i havent touched in months but im DETERMINED to get back to but that's a separate problem.)

one of those is, sadly, femdomverse 3 (and everything else i had planned). i have shared bits and pieces about it before, and it was going to be called "points present" bc she leaves a pair of her underwear as a ~treat~ for getting his first points ladkfjasldkfjaslkjf

i think my big problem with femdomverse was just down to teething problems. i wrote fdv1 on impulse in under 24hrs, i dont think i would've even finished fdv2 if i wasn't trapped in my appt with covid (thanks covid.) it sorta grew into a much larger idea than it started as and trying to figure out planning it out once i was already in the middle of it. i think it was a good lesson for really taking the time to think out longer projects fully before i post anything in the future.

but fdv still has such a place in my heart and its spirit lives on in my other girlfics!!!!

😈 Is there anything you enjoy doing that you think your readers hate?

this is such an interesting question because i spend very little time thinking about this. i write what i wanna write and if yall like it thats just a bonus :P new ask game tell me things i do as a writer you find annoying??? lol i suppose one thing i do a lot is talk about fics and just not get them finished or posted in a reasonable amount of time. WHICH ANNOYS ME TOO TO BE FAIR. idk. let me know~

🧠 What’s an idea you have that you can’t quite call a WIP yet?

ooooooh gio for u. as a treat. i'll talk abt my sargewood fic idea. this doesn't really count as a wip yet bc i haven't written anything yet, BUT circling back to the first one, planning out longer forms fics is important for me in the writing process. i've only talked abt this with care in DMs so i guess this is its first proper public sharing.

so, it's an au where kyle never really got into racing, he and logan knew each other in carting but kyle's career petered out and he and logan fell of of touch. for logan, his career progresses as we know it irl, until he gets dropped at the end of the 2024 season and he ends up without any sort of drive, goes back to florida in a sort of career limbo. and runs into kyle again!!!!!

but!!!!! surprise!!!! kyle's a dad! (this was all thought up around this btw. i was like how do i make singledad!kyle as a concept into an actual story with substance.) kyle and a high school ex had a baby, kyle realized he was gay so they broke up, she's very very smart and got into law school or smth so she's off doing smart businesswoman shit and kyle is the primary parent who gets child support. (amicable coparenting!!! just to be clear!!!!)

so with all of logan's new free time he can spend all this time with kyle and his kid to the point where lines start to blur and he now has all this free time to unpack any feelings that might pop up. writing a chaptered fic would be so so daunting but i think it'd be a good challenge for me, i just rly need to sent aside time to rly work on outlining everything i want!

👩‍🏭 If one of your fics was going to get you arrested, which one and why?

i'm not quite sure how to answer this question aldfjaslfjasldfja i'm big on. feeling morally neutral abt the fiction we all write. HOWEVER i do know that like, oscarmark is ~controversial~ and i do have this wip. that i havent touched in a while but i love the concept so much i still rly want to get back to at some point. the wip actually predates fdv and i originally was like 'oh i'll just anon post it i'm too embarassed' but now any embarassment abt the wierd shit i write is GONE lmao. i did talk abt it in the replies of this post and thats the most i've said about it before. it's really just a contrived silly little plot all just to set up oscar being fucked over the side of a boat. which is public sex technically which is also a crime. its v self indulgent its very For Me i hope i can take it out of wip purgatory someday :'(
