I'm looking for anyone sharing their experiences learning Chinese using comprehensible input and how many hours, what their progress was, what they learned to understand and say etc.
There was a guy Kevin who watched 2000 hours of cdramas, and before that did FSI Chinese and simple podcasts and... frankly he did not have much success. His comprehension after 2000 hours is worse than mine (after at most ~1000 hours study or reading, ~700 hours comprehensible input if we count shows I watched and more comprehensible stuff). His comprehension and speaking is worse than most people I've talked to and learners I've seen who are intermediate... maybe he's just not paying attention? That's all I can think. Like that he was maybe literally tuning out verbally what was being said and mostly only paying attention to visuals. Sort of like how when English speakers watch a show with english subtitles they just tune out most of the verbal language. Maybe he just tuned out the verbal language a lot of the time? Because his results were really bad... and then he moved blogs, and the newer blog doesn't exist. Despite the fact he did use FSI Chinese, took a beginner class, and watched Peppa Pig, so he should have had somewhat of a base to understand daily life modern cdramas and everyday language in everyday scenes... I would've expected some improvement in that area of understanding at a decent rate. Maybe he only watched old palace dramas??? Anyway I can't find his new blog as existing. So I can't determine if he ever had success... also the guy did not prioritize "comprehensible" input... he said at first he understood like 5% and just kept watching... (and again! Based on his beginner chinese knowledge from prior sources he should have understood at least 25% of a modern romance daily life drama! Unless he was only using dramas not set in the present???)
Truly I do not know how a person can make so little progress unless they're tuning out. Any traditional study learner I've seen has made more progress, any traditional study as a beginner (with the amount of experience he had) who then switched to reading and watching cdramas (and looking up words once in a while) made more progress! Progress I expected him to be able to make. (Any Refold japanese learner who only did anki for the basics, then immersed a lot, pretty much did what he did as they also had basics beforehand, and there's multiple successful Refold learners who rarely used anki past the beginner stage and rarely looked up words...)
The only other people I've seen use comprehensible input... one is on r/dreaminglanguages and he's only done 150 hours so far, that hes given an update on. He's making good progress though! Very similar progress to thai AUA and ALG students. But I'm now farther than him so I am on a road untravelled wishing to compare what I'm doing to someone who's already done it.
Pablo from Dreaming Spanish is studying Mandarin with comprehensible input. I found this video he shared. But I don't know spanish. So Im holding onto cognates with french and english and seeing how well his progress is going:
youtube
I'm trying to figure out how many hours hes studied so far, and what progress he's made in terms of things he can understand.
Anyway please send me links if you know of anyone who got farther!
#rant#comprehensible input#langblr#something i find interesting just in terms of comorehensibility#is just how much easier i can follow the main idea for spanish stuff... compared to say korean where i dont know shit#spanish is just Similar enough to french and english that i have some tools to guess things soketimes...#i defijitely think using ci for mandarin would be HARD as fuck if you didnt already know some basics#so you can use the basics to lean on guessing more stuff#alas im going to have to be my own guinea pig...#Youtube

practice round
dick grayson x fem!reader
summary; when some guy takes an interest in you, your extremely thoughtful best friend dick convinces you that you need a little more… experience. and who better to help you practice, than himself?
warnings; 18+, manipulation, yandere-lite themes… best friends <3 nsfw, reader is inexperienced, but not a virgin, possessiveness, fem!reader, oral (fem receiving), fingering, unprotected sex (reader is on the pill)
author’s note; felt depraved things writing this… if you enjoy then let me know!
You’re sat on your bed, curled up near the edge where Dick is sprawled out on the floor beside you, scrolling through his phone.
He noticed a slight shift in your behaviour about ten minutes ago when you’d received a notification on your phone. He wonders if you’re going to tell him about it — he supposes it doesn’t really matter if you don’t. He’ll just look through it later, but of course he wants you to be the one to share.
You look so nervous, knees drawn up to your chest like you’re trying to make yourself smaller. It’s adorable. It’s pathetic. It makes something sharp twist in Dick’s stomach.
Finally, you blurt it out. “So… this guy asked me out.”
Dick stills, his finger hovering over his phone screen as he freezes in place. “Yeah? Who?”
You say his name like you’re embarrassed and Dick smiles, slow and easy. But inside, he’s seething. It takes a lot to keep his expression carefully neutral. He’s heard you talk about this guy before, offhandedly calling him cute. He has no idea you may have possibly been forming a crush on him.
You hug your pillow against your chest and scrunch up your nose. “He’s so… popular. You know? Good looking. Everyone’s obsessed with him, so I don’t know…”
“Sure,” Dick mumbles, pretending to focus on his Instagram feed again. “He’s been with… what, half the senior class?”
You wince. Dick thanks the universe in this moment that the guy who has taken an interest in you is basically a manwhore. It’s going to make this so much easier.
“Yeah,” you say, nodding slowly. “Yeah, I guess. He’s really, uh, experienced.”
Dick turns around to face you properly. He scans your face, assessing the way you bite at your lip and look down, your gaze faraway somewhere. “Wait, you’re nervous.”
He forces himself to sound surprised, but of course he knows you’re nervous. He’s banking on it, in fact.
You nod, sighing as you lean back on your bed. “What if I’m not enough for him in… y’know, that area. He’s probably used to girls who know what they’re doing and I’ve barely even—”
“Hey, hey,” Dick cuts you off, getting up to take a seat next to you on the bed and reaching a hand out to lightly squeeze your knee. “You’re more than enough, sweetheart.”
He means that. You’re way more than that jackass deserves. Dick has heard how he’s talked about women before. Even if this guy wasn’t scum, there’s no way in hell Dick is going to let him have you. The gears in his mind are already turning and there’s a growing excitement in his lower belly that he can hardly contain.
“You just said that he’s been with so many people,” you point out, frowning at him.
Dick sighs, like it pains him to say it. “Yeah, well. Sure, he’s probably used to certain things. Stuff he’s probably expecting without even thinking about it. But that isn’t your fault.”
You stare at him, looking utterly crestfallen. He can practically hear your heart sinking and it only spurs him on as he shifts closer to you, dropping his voice into something more intimate and safe.
“Any guy would be lucky to have you. You know that right?”
“Thanks, Dick,” you mumble, trying to smile. But he’s not done.
“It’s just guys like him,” Dick continues slowly and deliberately, carefully choosing his words. “They get bored really fast. If something feels too new… too awkward…”
He trails off, allowing the implication to hang heavy between you. Dick is well aware that you’re not a virgin, but you may as well be. He’s talking bullshit, obviously. He knows that this guy would kill to have you in his bed and that your lack of experience would only make you more appealing to his sick mind. Dick would know, considering his mind is even sicker when it comes to you. The difference is that you actually mean something to Dick.
“Oh,” you whisper, dropping your gaze. You look disappointed and Dick knows exactly what to say next.
“Look, if you’re that worried,” he starts, sighing like you’ve presented him with a problem. “You could always practice.”
You blink at him, startled. “Practice?”
He smiles at you, all warm and encouraging like he’s offering you a life raft. “Yeah. To get comfortable. Figure out what you like, what feels good. What to do. So that when it matters, you’re not nervous.”
You let out a nervous laugh, hesitating. “I guess. But, with who?”
Dick shrugs, noncommittal. “Me, if you want.”
As expected, you whip your head up to gape at him, wide-eyed and shocked. “What?”
He rolls his eyes, as though what you’re saying is silly. “Don’t make it weird,” he chuckles under his breath, keeping his hand on your knee. “We’re best friends. You trust me, right?”
You open your mouth, like you’re about to argue but then you shut it. Because you do trust him — you always have. “Yeah, I do, but—”
“Doesn’t have to mean anything,” he says, softening his voice even more. Every word coming out of his mouth is a lie, but they’re necessary, really. You don’t know what you want yet, which is exactly why he’s here to help. “And wouldn’t you want to practice with someone you’re comfortable with? Someone who only wants to make you feel good and confident. To teach you how to make someone happy.”
Lies, lies, lies. He has no intention of letting that happen.
Dick starts to stroke your wrist, thumb gliding lazy circles over your pulse like he’s trying to calm you down. Judging by the way it quickens, he’s doing the opposite and he has to fight to hide his grin.
Your voice cracks when you finally whisper back. “You really think it’ll help?”
“Yeah, but it’s totally up to you. You don’t have to decide right now,” he says lightly, tucking a strand of hair behind your ear and marvelling at how your gaze is tracking his every movement. “If you’re already this nervous…”
Your voice comes out impossibly small. “What would we even do?”
Dick’s mouth twitches as he tries not to smile triumphantly. He’s got you exactly where he wants and he’s elated.
“We can just kiss for now,” he murmurs, brushing a thumb over your lips, immediately making them part. Fuck, he’s going to have a hard time stopping if that’s all you want to do. “Whatever you want.”
After hesitating for a second and testing Dick’s patience, you finally nod. It’s shy, barely a movement of your head, but you’re smiling at him and Dick feels it go straight to his groin.
“Okay, then,” he murmurs, agreeable like you’ve coaxed him into it. “Do you want to set the pace, or should I?”
Your shoulders relax a little at the kindness in his voice and you swallow. “You… you can.”
He almost groans at your words. So submissive, so willing. You’re giving him permission to do what he wants and oh, he’s going to take it.
Dick gently positions you so that you’re facing him a little closer, sneaking his hand around to your back like he’s done a million times. Except this time, he gently lifts up your chin and offers you a reassuring smile and you can’t help returning it, albeit nervously. It’s Dick after all — your best friend in the whole world. And he’s such a good one for helping you out, right?
As if you’re getting impatient, you glance down at his lips and he decides that’s enough playing around.
Dick leans forward and brushes his lips against yours to test the waters. When you don’t move away, he presses his mouth to yours and your eyes flutter shut.
You’re a little stiff at first, hesitant and unsure as you allow Dick to lead. And he’s more than happy to show you.
He tilts his head slightly, deepening the kiss as his hand slips back to cradle the back of your neck. His fingers tangle in your hair, fully controlling your movements and you let out the tiniest, most helpless whimper he’s ever heard from you.
Dick nearly loses it there and then.
He pulls back slightly, just enough to speak, and his lips brush yours with every word. “You can kiss me back, sweetheart,” he murmurs, voice coaxing and patient. He brushes his knuckles against your spine and swallows hard when you instinctively arch up into him. “Just… follow what I do.”
You nod, your expression dazed and faraway and when he leans in again, you press your mouth to his in a soft kiss.
Dick smiles against you, rewarding you by slanting his mouth more firmly against yours. This time he lets the kiss linger, letting you feel his warmth, the careful way he parts his lips to guide you how to breathe through it.
When you mimic him, he hums low in his throat, the noise vibrating against your lips.
“Good girl,” he whispers, barely pulling back, his voice rough with approval. “You’re doing so good for me.”
Your lips turn up, a shy smile gracing your face as you shiver slightly. “Thank you,” you mumble out, like you’re embarrassed.
Dick has manipulated you into kissing him and you’re thanking him. He’s so giddy he could burst.
Instead he settles for kissing you again, even deeper as his hands slide down to your hips where they lightly squeeze. The action makes you gasp softly against the kiss and he uses it, sliding his tongue against your bottom lip.
You stiffen, unsure and he immediately soothes you, hand against the side of your thigh. Your nerves are so cute. Almost as cute as the strawberry lipgloss that he’s tasting, which he knows is your favourite.
“Open up for me, baby,” he murmurs, voice dripping with patience. “Just a little. Let me in.”
You part your lips, all hesitant and sweet and Dick rewards you immediately by slipping his tongue in your mouth. You melt against him some more and he takes it as a sign to go further until he’s licking into your mouth, kissing you like he’s trying to eat you alive.
He’s borderline devouring you, getting hungrier when he feels you start to move with him, gasping into his mouth and making soft, pleased noises.
Dick can feel how overwhelmed you already are when you helplessly reach out to grab the fabric of his t-shirt, clutching him like a lifeline. He needs more.
Pulling back far enough to speak, he tries to control his own breathing. It’s just so hard when he’s this excited. “When a guy really likes a girl…” he says lowly. “He won’t wanna stop at just kissing. You wanna make sure you’re ready for all of that?”
You stiffen for a second and Dick decides to change his tune, gently kissing your forehead like he always does and begins to shift back a little.
“I mean, we don’t have to,” he relents, trying to sound as flippant as he possibly can when his hard on is painfully straining against his jeans. He begins to slide his hands away from your body as though he’s unaffected. As though his jaw isn’t clenched from the restraint of not touching you. “We can stop.”
“No!” Your hands shoot out to hold his own in place where they grip your waist and your eyes don’t leave his mouth for a second. Your’e panting softly, lips swollen and bitten — courtesy of Dick — and your eyes are glassy. “I— we don’t have to stop… I want to keep going. Please.”
Who is he to deny you when you ask so sweetly?
“Whatever you want,” he agrees, voice calm as ever. But his blood is hot and he’s trying so hard not to rip off your clothes and fuck you into the mattress until your bed is broken in half. All in good time, he tells himself as he guides you further back. “Lie down for me?”
You rest your head against your pillows obediently and Dick runs his hands up your sides, slowly and teasingly. “I’m going to take off your shirt now.”
Nodding, you lift up your arms when he begins to peel away your oversized t-shirt, shrugging it over your head to toss it to the ground. Dick’s eyes don’t leave your chest and it’s like he’s a man possessed when he immediately leans down to drop kisses to your neck and down your chest, grazing the swell of your breasts.
“So, so pretty,” he mumbles against your skin, his hands sliding behind your back to fumble with your bra clasp. You don’t stiffen this time and he takes it as permission to unclasp it before sliding your straps down your arms and leaning back to stare at you. “Fuck…”
You shrink under his gaze, trying to place your hands over your chest when he doesn’t move, and the action snaps him out of it.
“Don’t cover up,” he instructs, impatiently brushing your hands away before looking directly into your eyes. “You’re so fucking beautiful.”
A little laugh leaves you, like you don’t believe him and he decides it’s high time to convince you. Ducking his head down, Dick immediately swipes his tongue across your hardened nipple and you hiss, hand flying up to muffle your gasps as he starts to suck. Everywhere. He’s biting and licking at your chest, purposely leaving marks. If you try and do this with anyone else, they’ll know he was here first with all the blossoming bruises he’s sucking onto your skin.
Your gasps are coming out too quietly for his liking.
“No, don’t cover your mouth,” he says firmly, circling your wrists with his much larger hands to guide them away and pin them to your sides. “Guys like it when you’re noisy.”
Translation: Dick wants to hear you scream.
He returns his mouth to your body, this time venturing lower as he peppers kisses to your stomach. Lower and lower until he’s at the waistband of your shorts. He kisses around your belly button, nipping at your skin to distract you from your nerves as he slides the shorts down your legs.
You’re not even protesting anymore. In fact, you’re eager as you kick the item of clothing off your body. Dick huffs out a laugh against your belly when he sees your pink cherry-print panties. He recognises them from all the times he’s rifled through your underwear draw — it’s his favourite pair.
“Stop laughing,” you say breathlessly as you playfully tug on a strand of Dick’s hair. “It’s laundry day.”
“No, it’s cute,” he says, completely serious as you roll your eyes. The attitude you give him makes him want to fuck it out of you and so he swipes his thumb across the centre of your panties, right where your clit is, pulling a breathless sound from you. “So, so cute.”
You’re already soaked through the pink and red fabric, your wetness forming a damp spot visible through your panties and he grins. Shit, he’s barely touched you.
Dick props up your legs for better access and tugs at your panties, sliding them down to your ankles and then he groans.
He sounds like you’ve just sucker-punched him and before you have the time to process it, Dick sinks a finger into you easily and without any friction.
You’re so wet that it slides right in and the sounds that leave your lips make Dick’s mouth water. You’re gasping on choked breaths as he moves in and out of you, dragging his digit against your walls.
“So responsive,” he exhales, keeping a slow pace as not to overwhelm you. It only lasts a second though, as he can’t help wondering what other noises he can get out of you. His other hand comes up to start circling at your clit and your hand flys up to grab at his inky black locks.
“Oh, sh…shit. Dick, oh my God,” you whimper as the double stimulation makes your body twitch. You’re so consumed by pleasure that you probably don’t realise how hard you’re pulling on his hair — it’s a good thing he likes it. “Oh, please…”
He thinks he could die right now, hearing you beg him. For what, you don’t sound sure, but he obliges you with something. That something being a second finger which slides in almost as easily as the first.
The whine that leaves you is music to his ears and he pumps his fingers in and out, stretching you open in preparation. “Good?”
His question is teasing, since he can tell from the way your eyes are screwed shut that you do think it’s good. You nod nonetheless, whimpering out a “Yeah, so good. S-so good, Dick.”
Dick hums, increasing his pace absentmindedly as his erection brushes against your sheets. He’s practically humping your duvet, it’s pathetic. But he can’t bring himself to feel shameful about it when you’re looking so fucked out before him and he’s barely even done anything.
Fuck, he’s nearly drooling and so he decides the only thing to do is remove his hand from your clit. Your eyes flutter open at the loss of contact, despite his fingers still moving inside of you.
“Wait, what are you— Nngh.”
Dick flattens his tongue against your cunt and drags it up over your clit. You cry out, tangling your fingers further in his hair and keeping his head between your legs. Not that you need to when he’s eating you out like a man starved.
His tongue is moving against you like you’re his last meal while his fingers curl upwards into your pussy, making your eyes prick with tears. The second he starts sucking at your clit, you arch off the bed and helplessly grind against his face, covering his chin in your slick.
Dick moans into your cunt, pulling away a little to ask you in between licks. “Are you close, sweetheart?”
When he doesn’t hear an answer, his fingers pause in their movements and he lifts his head up to look at you.
“I— I don’t know,” you whisper, breathing heavily. “I’ve never… y’know, I haven’t—”
You’ve never had an orgasm
It feels like Dick’s luckiest day alive, he thinks to himself and he can’t help the wicked grin that splits across his face. His slides his fingers out of you, making you whine and his grin widens as he climbs over you, swiping a hand over his mouth before pressing a sweet kiss to your lips.
“That’s okay, sweetheart,” he says soothingly, starting to pepper kisses over your cheek and jaw. “We still have more practicing. You’re going to cum on my cock for the first time, okay?”
“Okay.” Your response is almost immediate and he huffs out a laugh at how willing you are now. Any hesitation has since left you and Dick doesn’t have to convince you to do anything.
Not when you’re tugging at his shirt to take it off, which he happily obliges, reaching behind his back with one hand to shrug it over his head.
You exhale shakily, reaching out tentatively to trail your fingers over the sculpted lines of his chest, the hard ridges of muscle and the soft scattering of dark hair trailing down to disappear into his jeans.
“You’re beautiful too,” you say under your breath with a shy smile and he lets out a broken laugh, rough and shaky, grabbing your wrist and bringing it to his lips to press a kiss at your pulse point.
He’s going to absolutely ruin you.
When your hand drags down his abdomen and further down to his waistband, Dick shudders — a harsh tremor wracking through his body.
“Fuck,” he mutters, squeezing his eyes shut for a second. “Take off my jeans.”
Your fingers fumble to unbutton them and before he knows it, he’s tugging them off and you’re looking down at his cock straining impossibly hard against his boxers.
Dick doesn’t need to instruct you this time, and you’re hastily undressing him, allowing his achingly hard cock to spring free. You let out a breath at the sight of him, his leaking tip practically sore from neglect.
Your hands come up to hesitantly wrap around him, dragging his precum down his length to better stroke him. You do it painfully slow and he hisses through gritted teeth, jerking his hips into your hand which is so, so tiny compared to him.
“Am I doing this right?”
Your quizzical voice nearly makes him buckle, and he decides he’s had enough of not being inside of you.
“You’re perfect,” he promises, sliding a hand up the expanse of your thigh to squeeze your ass. “You’re more than perfect, but if you keep going, I’m going to cum all over your hand and that’s not what we’re practising today.”
You give him a sheepish smile, removing your warm hand and letting it rest by your side while he hovers over you.
Dick glances over your naked frame and nearly sighs aloud at the sight, leaning down to kiss your temple. “Are you ready?”
“Ready,” you say, nodding at him to continue.
Dick brings his length to your cunt and drags it up and down once to cover the tip in your slick, marvelling at the natural lubricant. He’s not going to need anything else to slip right in and when your body twitches at the feeling of his head dragging against your clit, he smirks.
And then he slips the tip right into you, slowly working you through the delicious burn as you gasp. In the back of his mind, he’s a little bit concerned that you haven’t bothered to ask him to wear a condom (not that he was going to — he knows exactly what birth control you’re on, it’s fine), but your compliance is so naive. He’s glad it’s just for him.
“Ohhh, fuck. You’re doing so well, you can take it,” he grunts out, trying to go further in as slow as possible. His hands are clenched around your sheets as he slowly pushes and pushes deeper into you. “You were made for this, weren’t you? Huh? You gonna take all of me?”
“Yes, please, please, please,” you mutter, voice hoarse and nearly inaudible.
“Please what?” Dick stills, not moving another inch as he freezes halfway inside of you. “What do you want me to do, baby? Use your words.”
“Dick,” you rasp out, trying to buck your hips up for more, but Dick grabs your waist and pins you down. You can’t move an inch when he does this. “Please, please, I want more!”
He leans down to chuckle in your ear before he buries himself into you, sinking all the way down to the hilt.
He only gives you a few seconds to adjust before he’s pulling out and slamming back into you. The cry that leaves you is so beautiful and Dick wants to hear it again and again and so, all of a sudden, he’s driving his hips right into you with a desperation.
His cock is stretching you out more than his fingers ever could and you’re so wonderfully tight that Dick can feel every last inch of your velvety walls wrapped around him, sucking him in like something vicious and needy.
You’re practically incoherent now, the whimpers that leave you are basically sobs as Dick fucks into you hard and fast.
“Shit, sweetheart,” he grits out, sweaty curls falling into his eyes as he doesn’t falter in his thrusts. He leans down to press his body against yours as he continues to pound your hot, weeping cunt. “You’re a fucking natural, you know that? You don’t need the practice, you’re perfect. He doesn’t even deserve you. Fuck, he doesn’t deserve to look at you, let alone fuck you.”
Dick’s control and flippant attitude is slipping as he mumbles the words against your skin, but what else can you expect when you’re scraping your nails down his back and pressing your tits against his chest? He doesn’t even care about fucking you under the guise of practice anymore and instead he’s whispering cruelly into your ear.
“You’re so fucking gone for my cock, I bet you can’t even remember his name,” he chuckles against the shell of your ear and you let out another sob, shaking your head frantically. “What is it, baby? What’s his name?”
“I don’t…” you trail off, jaw going slack and eyes rolling back into your head when Dick lifts up your leg to position it over his shoulder, hitting a brand new angle that makes your whole body tense and writhe. He repeats the question and you whine, arching your back even more as you clutch his bicep. “Fuck! I— I don’t know, oh my God, I don’t remember. Oh, Dick, please, it’s so good! You’re so fucking good, I can’t—”
Dick smirks into your neck, his hot breath fanning over your skin as he pants. “That’s what I fucking thought.”
He leans back and brings your other leg over his other shoulder to drive his length into you impossibly deep and you scream his name so loudly that there’s no way your neighbours could miss it.
The sounds of his skin slapping against yours are so obscene in the otherwise quiet of your bedroom that he wishes he could record it to listen to the audio later. He makes a mental note for next time.
As soon as Dick feels your cunt begin to clench around him, he knows you’re close and fuck if he isn’t too. Sweat is coating his back and he feels out of control — you don’t look any better as there are tears of pleasure running down your cheeks, your tits bouncing with every thrust, the sheen of sweat over them catching in the light.
Fuck, he groans out a guttural noise as he picks up the pace to piston into you like a fucking machine. Reaching over in between your legs, he starts to rub quick circles into your clit with his thumb, leaning down to spit on it.
He watches with awe as his thumb rubs his spit into your cunt and the more he circles your clit, the harder he slams into you. Soon, you’re coming so hard that your body trembles with a high pitched whine and your nails are drawing blood down Dick’s back.
The way your cunt is clutching his cock through your orgasm makes him follow quickly and he’s as much of a wreck as you are, burying his face in your neck and sliding his arms under you to pull you close to him as his hips begin to falter. Before he knows it, Dick is shooting hot ropes of cum all over your walls with a choked groan.
It feels never ending, the way you’re milking him for all he’s worth and he decides he never wants to separate from you, keeping himself buried inside of you as he collapses onto you.
He leans most of his weight on his arms beside you, but he’s close enough to feel your racing heartbeat against his chest as you catch your breath.
“You did so good for me, sweetheart,” he pants, one of his hands coming over to rest on your belly where he traces his fingers. “So fucking good…”
Your lips curve up into a smile and although it’s tired, he can tell you’re pleased.
He presses soft kisses into your temple, still buried deep inside of you. Your legs stay wrapped around him and your arms encircle his broadness in a bear hug, not eager to let go any time soon.
Dick is such a good best friend, after all.

golfing with rafe

summary: you have zero interest in golf but rafe wants you to come with him so you do. and after he takes care of you to say thank you.
warnings: none
writers notes: i had to google half of this stuff. i actually have no interest in golf but i definitely have interest in rafe playing golf 😋 also im too tired to proofread this so there may be mistakes…
rafe is always golfing and you're always complaining about him always going golfing. so he decided to bring you along and show you how fun it can be.
you get ready, tying you hair up in two pigtails. you put on a white skirt and a pink tank top with some pink new balance sneakers with white frilly socks poking out the top.

"seriously? you couldn't have just worn leggings and a shirt or something?" rafe leans against the doorway of the bedroom.
"no, ew" you scoff and shake your head, "i wanted to look pretty, so i wore this..." rafe chuckles and pulls you in by your waist, kissing your head. he pulls one of your pigtails gently.
"you always look pretty, sweet girl..." he smiles softly and your cheeks flush.
"thank you, rafey..." you lean up on your tip toes and peck his lips.
"never a problem, babe..." he squeezes your side, you gaze up at him with eyes full of love. his heart basically melts. he pushes down the urge to keep you at home all to himself and takes your hand.
"come on... lets go.." he pulls you outside to the car, excited to spend some time with you doing something you enjoy you get into the car and sigh.
"do we have to, rafe? why golf?" you pout slightly.
"i always go shopping with you... you have to do some things i enjoy sometimes..." he squeezes your thigh gently.
"i guess... but can we not just like... have some cocktails at the country club bar or something... that seems like more fun..." you twirl your finger around a piece of hair.
"they have drinks on the course, sweetheart. i can get you a pink glittery one if that's what your heart desires..."
"really?" you gasp and smile. as he nods with a smug smirk on his face. he always knows exactly how to convince you.
once you guys get to the course, he explains the different clubs and what you use them for.
"so they're all used for different distances, shot types and situations on the course~" you try to listen, you really do, but all you can focus on is how tight his sleeves are on his big biceps. you nod as he talks, zoning out on his tanned, muscly arms.
"you listening, princess?" rafe chuckles, tugging your pigtail.
"yeah, of course" you smile up at him sweetly, wrapping your arms around his waist.
"don't think you were, sweetheart..." he squeeze you.
"okay, maybe i wasn't..." you giggle and he grabs your chin, pulling your head up to look at him.
"you gonna sit pretty and listen, angel?" he presses a few light kisses to your lips as if to persuade you to listen.
"yeah" you smile softly, easily convinced by his sweet kisses.
"okay... so- let me show you how to swing." he grabs a club and stands behind you, positioning your hips against his, crouching slightly to meet your hips. you let him help you hold the club properly.
"my nails-" you whine.
"christ, they're fine, baby... okay- now when you swing, keep your hips in place until the balls moving okay?" he demonstrates, moving your arms with his.
"okay..."
he sets down a ball and steps away from you.
"hit it, baby girl..." he smirks and looks you up and down, not missing your butt sticking out more than usual.
you swing and hit the ball quite a distance, it doesn't even land remotely near where you were aiming but rafe doesn't need to know that. you squeal excitedly and turn to look at him.
"atta girl" he smirks and pats your butt, "you're a natural, babe"
"yay" you giggle
you guys continue around the golf course, he explains tactics and rules as you go.
"rafe... slow down. what the hell are you even saying? can't i just hit the ball and hope it goes in? that seems much easier..."
"no baby... you gotta know how the rules work and how to plan your swing. here.. look" he takes the club off you and doesn't bother to line up the club with the ball and just smacks it, he turns back to you.
"if you don't plan it, it's shit. and you don't wanna lose, right?" he shrugs and you shake your head.
after starting to listen properly, you're starting to think this is pretty fun. rafe is beyond happy that you're enjoying something he also enjoys.
after a few hours, the sun starts to set and you guys head back home. once you get inside, you take your shoes off and lay on the couch.
rafe joins you, sitting next to you and pulling your legs over his lap.
"i'm tired..." you mumble and rub your eyes, your legs immediately relaxing as he starts to tub your thighs.
"yeah you look a little sleepy..." he says quietly, looking over your expression.
you smile slightly as he moves to your calves and rubs them too. after a few minutes of comfortable silence and him rubbing your legs, he speaks up again.
"come on, lets head to bed..." he stands up and takes your hand to lead you upstairs.
once you make it upstairs, he grabs your favourite pair of pyjamas and stands in front of where you're sat on the bed, lazily taking your hair down and makeup off.
"arms up, angel..." he instructs softly and you lift your arms up.
he takes off your tank top and bra, pulling the silky material of your pyjama top over your head and letting you slip your arms in.
"there you go... good girl. lets get this pretty little skirt off..." he smirks and you lift your hips up to help him slide it down your legs.
he swaps your skirt for the silk shorts with the little bow detail on the waistband.
"thank you..." you smile gratefully, yawning and rubbing your tired eyes yet again.
"was that a yawn, tired girl...?" he chuckles softly as he kisses your forehead, his lips lingering for a moment before moving down to kiss your cheek. he pulls the covers back and lays the pillows out how you like it.
"it's definitely time for bed, huh?" he lays you down and pulls the cosy white sheets over you. "there ya go... i've got you..." he smiles and presses a few kisses to your face, stripping down to his boxers and getting into bed next to you.
"sleep tight, sweetheart... thank you for coming with me today... you did well, i'm so proud of you..." he pulls your head against his chest gently.
"i need something in return..." you mumble tiredly.
"anything you want, angel... i'd give you the world if you wanted it, sweet girl..." he strokes your back softly, lulling you into a peacefull, much needed sleep.
"sweet dreams, beautiful..." he kisses your head and tries to get some sleep of his own.

So we and 222 force them to get along bc 222 and we are close so why shouldnt they be too
love this request so much!!! i hope i did your idea justice 🫡🫡 i tried to write this quickly. pls let me know if this isn't what you wanted.thank you for requesting, enjoyyy!!
NOT proof-read, sorry!!!!
fine line | thanos (choi su-bong)
the barracks were quiet, save for the soft murmur of other players trying to get some rest. you sat on your bunk, legs stretched out in front of you, feeling the familiar weight of your belly.
jun-hee, player 222, sat next to you, her hand resting on her own swollen stomach. it felt strange, being surrounded by danger and fear, yet finding a kind of peace in talking about the one thing that kept you both going: the babies.
“i can’t believe we’re both pregnant in here,” jun-hee said softly, her voice barely above a whisper. “i always thought the world would be different by now, but… i guess this is just how life works out, huh?”
you smiled, nodding. “yeah. it’s crazy. but honestly, it’s kinda the only reason i’m still here. these little ones, they’re everything.”
junhee rubbed her belly gently, a soft smile on her lips. “same here. i didn’t expect this kind of life, but it’s like… being a mom now, it’s like i have something bigger to fight for.”
you let out a soft laugh. “i get you. even in a place like this, we’ve still got our kids to think about.”
jun-hee looked over at you, suddenly more playful. “speaking of kids, i’ve got to tell you something. my baby daddy is here too.”
you raised an eyebrow. “wait, really? no way. who?”
junhee’s eyes sparkled with a mischievous grin. “player 333. you know him as myung-gi.”
you blinked, then let out a low whistle. “myung-gi? as in that coinmg guy?”
jun-hee nodded, not even a little ashamed. “yep. crazy, right?”
you let out a laugh, a bit of disbelief in your voice. “wow, that’s... that’s wild.” you leaned back, looking at her with a grin. “your baby daddy is the reason me and my baby daddy are in debt."
junhee’s eyes widened slightly. “i apologise on his behalf... but wait, is your baby daddy here too? no way.”
you nodded, your grin growing bigger. “yep. he is. and… trust me, it’s not who you’d expect.”
jun-hee tilted her head, curious. “who is it, then?”
you leaned in a little, lowering your voice as though sharing a secret. “it’s su-bong...ah sorry thanos.”
jun-hee’s eyes almost popped out of her head. “what? no way. you’re telling me that your baby daddy is thanos?”
you shrugged nonchalantly. “yeah, believe it or not. crazy, huh?”
jun-hee shook her head, unable to suppress a laugh. “this is... way too much. okay, okay, we need to meet by the bunks. i want to see this. you and me, we’ll introduce them to each other.”
you raised an eyebrow, feeling a little hesitant. “you think that’s a good idea? i mean, myung-gi and su-bong don’t exactly… get along.”
jun-hee smirked. “it’s gonna be fine. trust me. they’re both here for the same reason now. i’m sure they can at least pretend to get along. for the sake of us, and our babies.”
you were still nervous, but the excitement was enough to push you forward. “okay, fine. let’s do it.”
the two of you carefully stood up, waddling over toward the area where the men were usually hanging out. you spotted su-bong in the corner, his large frame looming over the other players, while myung-gi was off to the side, doing his own thing.
as you and jun-hee dragged each man to the agreed meeting spot, both men’s eyes immediately flicked toward you. there was a sharp tension in the air as they both realized who the other was. myung-gi’s brow furrowed, and su-bong’s fists clenched at his sides.
jun-hee crossed her arms, giving you a look. “this is gonna be fun.”
you took a deep breath. “fun? more like intense.”
before you could do anything, both men started toward each other, their bodies tense and ready for a fight. su-bong’s deep voice was the first to break the silence.
“you,” he muttered, eyes narrowed. “what are you doing here?”
myung-gi sneered, taking a step closer. “don’t act like you’re in charge here. you think you can just walk around like you own the place?”
jun-hee quickly stepped in between them, arms raised. “hey! no fighting. not now, not here. we’re pregnant, okay? we’re trying to make it out of here alive, and you two are gonna work it out.”
you added, stepping up beside her. “yeah. no more fighting. our kids need us to be smart. we’re in this together.”
the two men stared at each other for a long moment, tension thick in the air. but as the seconds ticked by, something in their eyes softened—just slightly.
jun-hee, ever the mediator, was the first to break the silence. “come on, guys. we’re both in this for the same reason. for our kids. so, no more petty grudges. can you just... act like adults for once?”
you nodded, giving them a pointed look. “we have to work together. for them. our little ones deserve a chance.”
su-bong let out a frustrated sigh but nodded slowly, his fists unclenching. “fine. for the babies.”
myung-gi gave him a long, hard look before exhaling sharply. “yeah, fine. but don’t think this means we’re friends.”
jun-hee raised an eyebrow, her voice light. “we’re not asking for that. just... can we at least get through this without tearing each other apart?”
the two men exchanged a last heated glance before reluctantly stepping back. you and jun-hee gave each other a silent nod of approval.
“alright,” jun-hee said, her tone softening. “that’s a start. we can make this work.”
you smiled, feeling a little lighter now that the tension had eased, even if just for a moment. the road ahead was still long, but maybe, just maybe, with a little teamwork, you could all make it out of here—alive and with your babies.

I am scrambling for a topic, hn...
Maybe Yuu talks about how they went about naming the planets in her world to the Ignihyde boys?
YuuTalks! Explaining the Planet Names
A/N: Some quick edits I didn't realize I didn't do. Sorry!
"What a lovely turnout."
Idia sat curled up in a section of the bench seating, Ortho sitting beside him in the otherwise empty classroom.
Giggling, Ortho tilted his head as he read over the chalkboard, "Most of our friends have made the connection that if one of your events isn't mandatory, it's in their best interest to not attend. But, your world's space exploration far exceeds our own. So, I wish to hear more about the advancements from your home!"
"I'm just here to make sure you two don't start making blueprints for weapons again..." Idia mumbled, glaring over the tablet he clutched to his face.
"Fuck you. Anyway, welcome to YuuTalks! A fun little thing I've decided to do to explain topics from my world to you poor little rat boys."
Yuu clicks a button on the master remote, sending the room into darkness and illuminating the chalkboard from the overhead projector. Smiling, Yuu gestured to the title, "YuuTalks! How We Named the Planets!"
Ortho's eyes widened, already recording the presentation and leaning forward in rapt attention, "You have multiple planets!?"
"Well...We don't live on multiple planets. But we've been aware of them since ancient civilizations took notice of the stars. Seeing how we can see most of them with the naked eye..." Yuu erased the board, drawing several symbols in chalk.
Idia quirked a brow, able to recognize a few symbols. Two were gender emblems, but another two were logos he had seen in his own family registry.
Yuu made a final symbol in the beginning of the line, a circle with a single dot in the center, "I'm gonna make this a game-"
"Oh no-"
"Shut up, this'll be fun. The planet names that I was taught were actually based on Greco-Roman astrology. Which makes the fact that only you guys showed up so fucking funny to me."
"Greco-Roman...Ah! Those are your world's equivalents of the Valley of Woe and the Union of Mourning, Prefect Yuu?"
"Yep! The Romans basically ate Greek culture and passed it off as their own once Greece fell. But then they renamed a bunch of stuff to piss me off."
Idia frowned, though more interested than before, "I really doubt that's why they did it-"
"Shut up. It totally was. BUT! Since you guys are the smartest boys on campus about who these planets were named after. I'm going to describe the planet and you will guess who its namesake is."
Ortho clapped his hands, internally opening a search window while Idia himself poised his hands over his tablet.
He smirks, throwing Yuu a subtle challenging stare, "Bring it."
Yuu turns, pointing to the first symbol in the lineup, "First up, a freebie. This is the symbol for the Sun. It is the star at the center of our solar system, the gravitational pull dragging us and our planetary brethren behind it as we all go hurtling in space together. Now-...Yes, Ortho?"
Ortho turned the flashing lights of his arm off, putting it back down to the desk, "Was the Sun not named in the same fashion as the other planets?"
"It was. This is a freebie, Ortho. Trust me the pattern is quick to pick up and then I will fuck you over later. But, 'Sun' is from an old English — Queenian — word 'sunne' which itself is from a Proto-Germanic — Fuck, um...Central Shaftian — word 'Sunnōn'. But the most common name was Sol, after the Roman sun god."
Idia was actually taking notes, brow pinching at the information, "Wait...I'm not gonna try to say her name, but you said it was a goddess of the sun* when you told me about the gods you pay respect to."
Ortho tilts his head, "I thought it was the Star Lord, Lord of the Solar Palace?"
"The wha-"
"Ok. Quick crash course. My planet has many religions. Which, if I'm remembering what Lilia and Trein have told me, doesn't really happen here. You guys have more like...'Icons of Concepts' compared to whole ways of life based around group beliefs. But MOVING ON-"
"So wait. You said the Roman god. But these names are based on Greco-Roman? Where's the Greek? Are they taking turns?"
Ortho raised his hand again, lights flaring up to be noticed more easily in the dark, "What was the Greek name for Sol, Prefect Yuu?"
"Thank you for raising your hand, Ortho. The Greek equivalent to Sol was Helios, persona of the sun-"
"OOOOOOOOOOOO!" Idia’s eyes widened, an almost giddy vibe taking over as he tapped his tablet, "Helios was an Elden mage who pioneered fire magics."
Ortho nodded his head, "He created a large number of fire spell basics that we still use today! He died via immolation, so the fact your world saw him as a persona of the sun itself is fascinating!"
"Yeah, that's a word for it. Ok, let's start round one. The first planet in the solar lineup is currently the smallest planet. It's also the closest to the Sun, meaning it makes a full trip in only 88 days compared to my world's 365-ish days."
"Aaaa. So quick..." Ortho and Idia both took notes before whispering as to who they believed the planet to be named after. Idia had proposed the symbols would be helpful, seeing how Helios in his magical studies was the first to spell weave using archaic magic circles.
"Our worlds' ancient histories are weirdly closely linked. I think symbols were some of the things that were crossed over, like the stories about the Great Seven and such..."
"True...Then..." Ortho raised his hand again, thankfully without the blinking lights and called out when Yuu nodded, "Was this planet named for Hermes?"
"Correct! Romanized to Mercury, the planet is named after the God of travelers and communication."
Ortho giggled, "Because it's so fast!"
"Next planet." Yuu tapped the female symbol, "Second from the sun, yet the hottest planet in our system. It's covered in clouds of sulfuric acid and is literally the landscape of actual hell on the surface. But from the view of our world, it was the most beautiful star in the sky..."
"Hmmm...Maybe Eris? History did paint her as a rather malicious trickster, but she was known to be quite beautiful..." Ortho tapped at the desk, mentally reviewing the overwhelmingly large records of Woe and Mourning historical figures.
"It does sound like a pretty horrific status of a planet...pretty from afar, but a toxic environment up close- It's Aphrodite."
The laugh Yuu let out was short and barely contained. She smiles, looking at Idia with a head tilt, "What made you come to that conclusion?"
"Ah…A few hundred years ago, we found what we think were Aprodite's journals. She wasn't much of a mage, but she did dabble heavily in potion crafting. The research she had put into her potions was interesting enough to be published as a scientific memoir. While most of it was her recounting on the properties of plants and other magic objects, she was also ripping on her family viciously..."
"She recounted several ways she's cheated on her husband..."
Yuu laughed harder, "Messy bitch, I love her. Yes. Aphrodite, Romanized to Venus, is the name of the planet. Venus is also called my planet's twin, since they're roughly the same size. Now skipping to the fourth planet-"
Humming under his breath, Ortho's brows creased but he skipped over the third info section in his notes, "We're skipping your planet, Prefect Yuu?"
"If you guys do well on the others, you can guess my planet's name." Yuu taps at the male symbol on the board, "Known as the little red planet, it's the planet we've studied the most. We've sent multiple explorer robots up there and have learned the planet is red because its soil is rich in iron. In fact, it's so red that it's a key naming feature in every culture that discovered the planet."
Idia hummed under his breath, scrolling through the list of historical figures linked to his homeland, "Little and red, huh..."
Ortho perked up and yelled, "Ares!"
"Ding ding ding!" Yuu tapped the symbol, "Ares, the god of war, is the namesake of the little red planet. Romanized to Mars!"
"How'd you guess that Ortho?"
"Do you not remember the legend? Ares and Aphrodite had an affair for many years. During one such meeting, Aphrodite's husband came home. And since he knew what Ares looked like, she poured what was possibly the first draft of a color-changing potion over his head. Unfortunately, it was permanent as Ares remained red for the rest of his days..."
"We just named it because to the Greeks it looked blood-soaked. Your legend is cuter. Now," Yuu taps the next symbol, a stylized '4', "This is the fifth planet. Big as fuck, like insanely big, too big. Like, 13,000 of my planet can fit in this fucker."
"That is big…"
"That's cracked stats big..."
"We also sent a satellite up there named after his wife since a bunch of the moons are named after his lovers."
Ortho and Idia looked at each other, eyes glancing back to Yuu as Ortho asked, "Is that...a cute thing?"
"More along the lines of hilarious."
Idia sighed, "It's Zeus."
"Damn, say it with a bit more hope in your soul at least."
"I don't wanna talk about that asshole..."
Yuu held up her hands, nodding her head, "Fair. But, yes, the fifth planet is named after Zeus, romanized to Jupiter, the big daddy king of the gods."
"Don't...call him that..."
Ortho giggled, "You named a satellite after Hera and sent it to revolve around him?"
"The Romans called her Juno, but yeah, it's funny. Now...This one might be tough because they are not...the same person this time? But are? It's weird."
Yuu taps the next symbol, a stylized 'h', "The second largest planet in our solar system, after the big daddy king-"
"Don't call him that!?"
"Fine. The second largest after Jupiter, it's known for its dazzling outer rings made up of rock and ice. It also has the most moons of any planet."
"Oh? Quick query, Prefect Yuu. What are the moons of the other planets?"
"Well, Mercury and Venus don't have moons. My planet has one moon. Mars has two, Deimos and Phobos named after Ares’ sons. Jupiter has...95 that we know about? Or at the very least ones that are recognized as moons. And...the planet we're talking about now has...274-"
Idia’s eyes widened, even Ortho pulled back in surprise, "What, like, all at once!?"
"We think Jupiter has 600 we just haven't categorized all of them...Jupiter is so fucking big, it's annoying to think about..."
"What...what did you even name them all? At some point, you have to start using numbers instead..." Ortho tilted his head, brows creased in thought.
"Well, the biggest moon is named Titan..."
Idia groaned, "Just tell us, there's...there's too many titans to guess from if the themeing is following what I think it is. And you're saying there's 274 moons? We'll be here all afternoon."
"Well...Saturn is the Roman equivalent of Cronus-"
Both Ortho and Idia jumped back in their seats even more, Idia nearly scrambling backwards to the desks behind him, "Cronus!?"
"Damn...What did he do here? In my world he like...castrated his father and ate five of his children."
"By the Design...I don't...Cronus is theorized to be the first incident of an overblot? It's the only conclusion we can make from what few written accounts of the event we've found. He seemingly went mad one day and attempted to murder his wife and children."
Idia tapped at his tablet, "Was he known as a god in your world? I think after...the incident, his children tried to erase him from history with varying results."
"Uh...varying answer. He was worshipped, but nowhere near as much as his children were. There was kind of a soft spoken respect to him? But he wasn't really worshipped until he was romanized into a god of agriculture."
Ortho squints his eyes, "Agriculture?"
"You know...because of the sickle?"
"...You mean his murder weapon!?"
"Moving on." Yuu turned back to the board, tapping the next symbol, a hybrid of the Sun and Mars symbols mashed together. "We actually only discovered this planet and the rest in the past few hundred years! It and other planets were only theorized to exist, but the technology just couldn't find them yet."
Idia raised his hand, "I wanna keep talking about the fact your world had the legend of a man maiming his father and cannibalizing his children, and they were just cool with him???"
"Shhhhhhhhhhh. This planet has its own iconic set of rings and is actually tilted by 90°. Plus, it's the only planet named after a Greek god instead of Roman. It has fourteen moons, all named after book characters, giving them the title of the 'Literary Moons'."
Ortho hummed, doing brief math in his head before speaking, "So...it rotates normally, but its north and south poles are pointed facing the sun directly?"
Idia let out a terrified peep, "That's way too much sunlight! Wait...how long does daylight last then? If a whole hemisphere is looking right in the crosshairs of the sun?"
"Like 40 years."
"I'd kill myself."
Laughing, Yuu spoke, "It's kind of our fault? The theory is that an object the size of my planet hit it and caused it to tilt."
Idia mumbled under his breath, "Ruining stuff for everyone else is kind of the thing of your world, huh?"
"May we have another hint, Prefect Yuu?"
"Hmmmm...This planet is named after the Greek personification of the sky."
Ortho tilts his head, thinking over his options, "Is it...Ouranos?"
"I'll give you the win." Yuu wrote on the blackboard, giggling, "Uranus is what the planet was called in the end. Here's how we spelled it."
...
"...Prefect Yuu-"
"I know."
Idia held his hand over his mouth, "That's...so disrespectful...Why did you spell it like that...?"
"Because scientists forget at times that children are monsters. Next planet, because I wanna finish and get lunch."
Glancing at the clock, Ortho mused, "It has been a bit since we started."
Yuu tapped the next symbol, very clearly a trident, “This planet-”
Idia and Ortho both spoke, “Poseidon.”
“Let me…fucking speak?”
Idia gestured toward the board, glaring at Yuu in annoyance, “Its symbol is a trident. You’d have to be a noob of the highest degree to not know the symbol of the first Mer-King.”
“Fuck you, I’m still talking. Since it’s so far away, it’s basically a giant ball of ice with dense clouds over its surface. Said clouds were believed to give it an appearance of water though that has been disproven. It has sixteen known moons, all named after lesser sea gods such as Nereid and Triton.”
Idia called out, voice dripping heavily in a sarcastic tone, “Wow, more water-centered historical figures. How could I have not thought it was Poseidon?”
“Shut up, it's called Neptune and your knees are forfeit when we leave this room.” Slapping the board, Yuu nods her head toward the last symbol, “Guess it, you cunt.”
Idia opened his mouth but gave pause, humming as he studied the symbol closer.
Ortho tilted his head, “Is that a ‘G’?
“Ortho, does this look like a G?”
“Yes! It looks like a confused lowercase G!” At Yuu's continued silence, Idia gestured to the board, “Is it!?”
“No! You fucking dumbass- It was the smallest planet of our solar system until it got so unpopular with the scientific community that they declassified it as a planet. Can you guess who this one is named after? Huh? Can you guess, Idia?”
“...That's fucked up and mean.” Idia tapped at his tablet, shrinking back when Yuu leaned over the desk to continue taunting him.
“No, go on say it. Who is the little bitch planet named after that went on to have little bitch descendants?”
Ortho spoke up, the sadness clear in his tone as he looked at the board, “Was it really so disliked…?”
Yuu turns to Ortho, tone softer and all of her hostility gone, “No, it was declassified because after like…80 years of continued study and advancements in telescopes, scientists found that Pluto, romanized from Hades, didn't really…planet right?”
Idia spoke, “How does it not ‘planet’ well?”
“Well, for one, it's small. Like smaller than my planet's moon, small. Pluto's moon is actually only like half its size. And it doesn't orbit properly. It's like riding on Neptune's orbit sometimes. Plus its apparently on a fucking orbital angle different from the other planets, so that's making it weird too.”
Ortho leaned his head against Yuu’s shoulder, playing up his sadness and tapping his fingers together, “Did people really not like it…?”
Yuu sighed, patting Ortho on the head before backing away from the desk, “Nah. From what I remember people were pretty pissed that Pluto lost its status. They just kind of claim its a planet and are debating about it still.”
“Aw…That's nice. So Pluto is very loved in your world?” Ortho's eyes were shining, a clear contrast to Idia’s guarded and half hidden glare.
Rolling her eyes, Yuu smiles, “Yeah. We love that funky little planet. Oh! I have to show you guys a song about Pluto, I think you'd both like it.”
“We'll see about that…” Idia mumbled, glancing at the clock before sighing, “Hey. Did you still…want to do lunch…?”
“Yeah. I really don't even wanna try to find my main trio of braincells right now. So you two get to have me as a lunch date.”
“Oh goody…”
“Shut up, you fucking offered.”
“Wait! Prefect Yuu, you haven't told us your planet's name yet. I want to know.”
“I mean…I've said it before. You know the stuff I'd say when you guys first met me? ‘What on Earth?’ ‘Earth to dipshit.’ ‘Salt of the Earth.’ Stuff like that.”
“...It's Earth?”
“Yep.”
“But…but that's so boring, Prefect Yuu! That just means dirt!”
Yuu couldn't help but chuckle, “And our moon is named Moon.”
Idia huffed, already standing from his seat as Ortho remained fuming in his, “Talk about dropping the ball in the writers room. It's like playing an MMO with an immersive cast of high fantasy names only to find an NPC named Kyle.”
“Yeah…we didn't really see ourselves as a body in the universe…but the other names for Earth and our moon are actually Terra and Luna.”
“Doesn't Luna-”
“Yes, Luna just means Moon. Romanized from the Moon persona, Selene. And Terra is Romanized from the Greek Earth persona, Gaia.”
Both Idia and Ortho freeze, both looking at Yuu with wide eyes.
“...What?”
Idia coughed briefly into his fist, his mouth suddenly dry as his brain raced with theories and ways to soft launch questions to his parents, “Gaea is the name of our Planet…”
“...Huh.” Yuu clicked the remote, holding the door open as the room fell into complete darkness, “It's always kinda weird how close our worlds seem…”
Idia nodded, following behind Yuu and Ortho to the cafeteria, “You're telling me…”
Idia is talking about Xi He of Chinese mythos. Ortho follows up by referring to Tai Yang Xing Jun. She hasn't actually explained this to them, though.

"Three shots of vodka please!" Stacy told the bar tender as they nodded putting three shots in from of us.
I was at the club with my best friends Stacy and Margaret, and we had planned on getting very pissed. Stacy wanted to celebrate her promotion at work with a little girls night. She really wanted us to go all out. Her boyfriend said he would pick us up later so we were set to drink like it was nothing.
"Cheers." She said as the three of us rose the shot glasses in the air and downed it. The strong alcohol hitting the back of my throat causing a burning sensation.
"Okay, lets dance!" Stacy said walking towards the dance floor pulling on our arms. We made our way, the rhythm taking control of my body as I began swaying to the music.

After an hour, we were pretty buzzed and having such an amazing time. That was until I saw him. George Clarke.
The man that was suppose to be a simple fling. Just a one time thing, no big deal. Well, I kept going back like an idiot. Every time I would see him or get needy, he was the one I called. It's really stupid because, I know he sleeps around, he has a new girl basically every week. But, I literally can't get him out of my head. He's irresistible, he makes me feel so special. He treats me like a queen and I've never been able to find someone else like that. That's probably how he pulls so many girls.
I was deep in my thoughts, swaying to the music and I guess I kept staring at him because his eyes met mine. Piercing blue orbs staring into mine as he made his way towards me. I shouldn't do this, but I want to so badly. It would be a mistake to do anything with him again.
"Hey lovely." That familiar sweet voice spoke above the music. "Hey, how've you been?" I responded back hoping he came just to say hello. He leaned closer into my ear. "Not as good since I've last been with you." His voice spoke as softly as it could over the music. I trembled slightly at his words. "I can't." I said looking over towards Stacy and Mar.
"Oh come on darling, just a taste is all. It won't kill you." His words made my brain fog and the next thing I knew, I was being led towards his car. It's not like I was blackout drunk or anything either. I knew what I was doing and I still couldn't resist. '-just a taste', I need him so bad.
We got inside his car and I felt myself immediately latch onto him like he was the fix I needed after days without it. I placed my lips on his soft, plump ones. The ones I craved so badly, the ones that made my legs go weak, the ones that made me lose all of my common sense.
He pulled me on top of him so I was straddling him as we kissed roughly, both desperate for more of each other. His hands were on my lower back, slowly making their way underneath my shirt. I gasped at the cold sensation of his hands as they made contact with my skin. He used this opportunity to slip his tongue in my mouth trying to explore more of me.
My hands moved to the back of his neck, bringing him closer to me, our bodies molding together as our kiss became more intense. I felt the growing tent in his pants beneath me, letting me know he wanted more. I slowly started grinding against him.
He grunted against the kiss struggling to keep dominance allowing me to take over. I increased my pace as his grunts turned into loud moans.
His hands pierced into my hips as he wanted to be inside me desperately. I kept grinding against him, his head tilting back as I could tell he was about close.
My hips bucked as I feel warmth beneath me. "Fuck, Y/n, you always know just what I need." He laugh breathing heavily. "Im gonna have to go home now and clean up this mess... unless you wanna clean it?" He said as I crawled off him, sitting next to him.
Now, I know I shouldn't go with him but I can't help myself. "Sure." I said as he leaned in to kiss my lips.
"Let's go then baby."

Bathroom Intruders



Another Josh story! This one contains smut, and since there's been a long time since the last I mentioned it, I'll do it now. My blog is 18+, and there's several causes for this. I'd appreciate if minors kept away.
Anyways, enjoy this story. Many liked the "Never have I Ever" (link here!) story, and this is basically a prequel. In the original fic, there's mentioned that Josh and reader had sex in Chris's bathroom, so that's how this will go. Hope you like it! <3
Word count: 2,8k (unedited)
Hiii, could you write the time when reader and Josh had an action in the bathroom at Chris house? In "Never have I ever..." was this topic. And I love your work! And sorry if my english isn't perfect but i hope you know what I mean with this request 😭💞 - @amsliajskxkxkx
I lean back in the car seat, letting Josh steer the vehicle freely, not being in the way. I guess this was enough teasing for one day. And judging by his very visible boner, he needed some downtime until we got to Chris’s. Ashley was meeting us there for a game-night. Snacks, soda and talking. We all had classes the day after, so alcoholic drinks were out of the question.
“So, when are we planning on telling the group?” I ask, looking over at him. Despite his situation, he’s relaxed. Leaned back, one hand on the wheel. His shirt rolled up to his elbows.
“When do you think we should?”
“I don’t know” I admit. We’ve been going at it for so long now, it almost feels wrong to burst the bubble now.
“We can still wait a bit, after all, we still have some stuff we need to figure out”
“We do?”
“Yeah”
I turn to him, noticing the edge of his lips curling upwards while he struggles to stop it. He gives me a quick side-glance to check if I’m still watching.
“What stuff are you referring to?” He clears his throat, one hand stroking his thigh impatiently.
“Well, you know…”
“I don’t know”
“We haven't tried all the positions yet”
I can’t help the laugh that bursts out. He smiles, having been holding onto this joke for at least a couple of minutes.
“And how long have you waited to give me that reply?”
“Ten minutes”
I give him a nudge, a small hit on his arm. He doesn’t mind, still not being able to contain his laughter.
“Do you know how many positions there are? We’ll be dead before we try them all”
“Yeah, yeah”
He drives into the parking space, turning the car off and sighing loudly. I look to the entrance, trying to see if the door is unlocked. But it’s too far away.
“You wouldn’t mind doing it right now?” He asks, voice a bit rugged and breathless.
“In the car?”
“Mhm?”
“I don’t think making Ashley witness this when she walks past is going to be the best way to get the news out”
“Okay, then I guess we’re waiting a couple of minutes to go inside”
We wait, and after about seventy seconds, I break the silence.
“Funny thing is, we would’ve been done by now” I tease, trying to hide my smile. He furrows his brows, a finger coming up to state something.
“Hey, that was one time, and I had a pretty rough day!”
“If you say so”
“I do”
“Mhm”
I give a small laugh, leaning over and pressing a quick kiss against his lips before taking off my seat belt.
“I’m messing with you”
“We all know you love doing that” he sighs, leaning forward to capture my lips one more time. I break it off, putting my own finger against his lips.
“Hey, we wouldn’t have been together if I didn’t mess with you. I was the one who made this happen”
He grabs my finger in his hand, dragging me towards him to meet my lips yet again, the kiss tender and passionate.
“I’ll let you believe that”
My hands start to wander, feeling up his chest, one hand going behind his neck to pull him closer. He unbuckles his seat belt, giving himself more room to move. I lean more over, a little surprised when he pushes the seat back. I pull a little away looking over his flustered face.
“You sly fox, you wanted to get in the mood” I whisper, looking through his tactics.
“Well, you’ve told me what turns you on, I’m just doing it”
A loud knock on the window interrupts us both, and I let out a shriek while he jumps. I turn around, seeing Ashley outside, beanie and a warm puffy jacket.
“Open the window!!!” She shouts, her voice sounding through it. I oblige, rolling it down and letting her peek her head in.
“Why aren’t you inside yet? And why is Josh’s seat leaning all the way back?” She asks, giving us both a sceptical look.
“Something’s wrong with it, Josh was getting some a couple of days ago, and the girl messed with the settings. He can’t get the seat up again” I lie, giving him a small smile.
“Gosh, Josh, I know you’re a serial dater, but at the expense of your car? Isn’t that taking it a tad too far?” she asks, obviously judging him. He looks at me, ever so discreetly giving me a sour pout.
“Um, I guess she just really liked my car”
“Sometimes, it just amazes me how freaky you can be Josh, and not in the good way” she shakes her head, standing up outside the door. I look over to him again, talking loud enough so Ash can hear everything as well.
“Yeah Joshy, you know what a bed is? Maybe you should try using that instead? It’s a little cheaper to wreak”
I try to contain my laugh, making sure that she can’t see me aggressively biting my lips to stop myself.
“You’re gonna get back for this” he whispers, opening up his door and walking out. I do the same, greeting my homegirl with a big hug.
“Anyways, have you been at Chris’s new place yet?” I ask curiously. She may have, and we all know nothing has or will happen with them at this rate, but it’s still a good chance.
“No, he’s come over to me a couple of times, but he always said that he wanted to get his furniture moved first, getting everything sorted and things like that”
“Ahh, okay”
We all walk over to the door, glad to find it unlocked. We make our way inside, yelling his name. A loud crash makes us stop in our tracks, everyone looking at each other.
“Chris?”
“I’m okay!”
The coats are left in the hallway, and Ashley starts walking quickly to the kitchen. Josh and I walk right behind her, hurrying to see what the fuss is about. On the ground is a bowl, luckily unharmed.
“See? These things are as sturdy as me”
“You’re a lucky guy” Ashley comments, bending down and picking the bowl up. I walk over, taking two of the many things he’s balancing in my hands. Josh comes up behind me, front brushing against my back, mouth being a little too close to my chin as he leans over to grab a couple of other things from the blonde.
“Cochise, we need a tour, don’t you think?”
“Maybe after we’ve put these things down” I remind him, everyone standing awkwardly on the kitchen floor.
“Move, move!” The boys urge, making Ashley and I hurry out. We walk further into the apartment. I take in every detail. He’s certainly made this place pretty, plants, decor, space… He knew what he was doing when picking out matching furniture and placing them around. I wonder how much time this took him. We arrive in the living room, couch, coffee table and a big open space. His console is connected to the tv, already playing the familiar intro music.
“Well, I’ve been in Josh’s nasty sex car so I’ll go wash my hands” I declare, giving the guy a small punch. He gives me a sour expression, while Chris asks Ashley about it, and she starts explaining Josh’s fake encounter.
“Maybe I also should go do that, and you know, murder someone as well” Josh whispers, leaving the two behind. I find my way to the bathroom. The space shimmers in dim gold lighting. The room is clean, with a big sink and countertop. Before I can shut the door, a hand slithers in between the gap, stopping it from closing. Of course I know him by just his hand. Tan, veiny, big…
“Hey, now these people think badly of me” he complains, shoving himself through the gap and locking the door behind him.
“They think of you like they always have Josh, don’t you remember when you used to be like that?”
“I’m a changed man!”
“I know you are, I’m messing with you! Sorry, if you want to let them know about it now, you’re free to do so, again, sorry” I say, a little breathless. I didn’t know this would affect him in this way. He rolls his eyes a bit, voice louder as he continues speaking.
“But that’s the point, we can’t let them know yet”
“And why not?”
“Because all of them will think I’m just messing with you!” He’s in my face, all up against me, breathing heavily while I soften. I don’t know what to say, his outburst conjuring a mixture of feelings I can’t differentiate right now.
“What?” I whisper, confusion taking over. Messing with me?
“We all know how I used to be, and you were the major switch which changed everything, but… I just know, many of them will be disappointed by me, because they think that this is another one of my flings and everyone will take sides when it’s over and-”
“Hey, hey, calm down” I try, hand coming up to his face. His heart is beating rapidly, chest heaving with each breath.
“Calm down” I soothe, placing a small, tender kiss on his lips. His arms go around me, holding on tightly as if I’m supposed to disappear.
“We said that if this doesn’t work out, we’ll still be friends, right? No need for anyone to take sides”
“I don’t want this to end” He whispers, one hand going to my head, tangling in my hair.
“Neither do I” I counter, pulling back to look at him, eyes glossy as he looks down on my lips.
“Then why are we talking about it like it’s going to happen?”
“I-I… I don’t know”
He captures my lips in his, first carefully, but then puts more pressure. I lose my balance a little, taking a step back to make sure I don’t fall. He continues forward, making me walk backwards all the way to the empty, clean counter, my back hitting the hard material.
“This… I can’t imagine being with anyone else but you”
“Neither can I” I whimper back, his lips finding their way to my neck, kissing and sucking all over.
“Josh…”
“Mmm?”
“We’re at Chris’s place, in his bathroom” I give a loud moan, and Josh’s hand quickly flies up to cover my mouth.
“Yes we are, and that’s why you need to be quiet” He smiles, and I nod while his fingers slowly slide their way down to my pants.
He continues ravaging my lips with his, efficiently working on unbuttoning my pants at the same time. I lean back a little, making it easier for him. He drags the fabric down my legs and off my feet, hands feeling up my thighs. I tug on his shirt, making him let go of my lips for a couple of seconds so I can drag it over his head, throwing it on the floor. He helps me off with my top, pulling it over my head before he starts kissing me again, hands going to his pants to take them off.
I feel myself heat up, panties getting wetter in anticipation. A small clank sounds, his belt hitting the tile floor as he walks into me, pulling my body to the edge of the counter. I feel his hardness against my heat, begging to be let inside. I grab the hem of his boxers, pulling at the fabric. He groans and I let out a shush sound, reminding him of our location. He pulls my panties off impatiently, hand going to my back, making me lean over the edge, barely hanging onto the counter. I’m already dripping, waiting for him to enter me. He looks up questioningly, and I give a slight nod.
Before I know it, he slams into me, full length testing my limits. I scream out, but he already expects it, having his hand over my mouth as he pounds in and out. The combination of pleasure and pain is astonishing, every feeling mixing together in my stomach, making me dizzy and whimpery.
With his other hand, he takes hold of my waist, making me turn around, feet falling down on the floor again, my upper body bent over the counter. The coldness of the stone gives me goosebumps, and I try pulling myself up a bit, seeing him as a pantining mess behind me in the mirror. His hand is still over my mouth, making muffled moans and whimpers come out, while he tries to lower his tones as much as possible. I feel his fingers move over to my stomach, pulling me back with both arms. He holds me almost in the air, his front pressed into my back, already a bit sweaty. His head leans over my shoulder, rapid breaths as he keeps up the pace. Making me stand up makes him reach even further, hitting my cervix with every thrust. His fingers move down to my clit, rubbing circles and causing a number of sounds to erupt from my mouth. I can’t help it, the extreme mixture of simulations combined with the pain and sight.
“You see that? Look at yourself, t-this, it’ll last, you got that?”
I nod my head, and he smiles as he leans down, kissing my neck. The wet touches are massive contrasts to how he fucks me, roughly and over the top, each part connected in different ways.
I start nearing my edge, tension building up in my lower stomach as I try to keep quiet. He’s nearing his end too, his grip loosening around me, unable to keep it. His hand goes from my mouth to my breast, groping harshly. I fight the urge to scream, my voice stopping in my throat.
“And now, when you come, don’t you dare make another sound”
I can’t even not, finally reaching my high and breathing out. I’m hyper focused on my voice, keeping my mouth shut as I let out small whimpers. He rides me through it, pounding faster and harder as he reaches his own, pulling out and coming all over my ass and back. I feel the hot liquid running down my back, my upper body leaning over the counter to catch my breath. I hear him, feel his pulse through his wrist.
“H-hey, are you okay?” he asks, coming up beside me and kissing my cheek. I smile, turning my head to meet his lips. My body is covered in red marks, all from how hard he was grabbing me, but I like it.
“I love you” I whisper, and I can see a faint blush on his already exhausted and flushed face.
“I love you too” I capture his lips yet again, his arms going around me to pull me closer.
“Hey, are you finished in the bathroom soon!” Chris’s voice sounds from outside. I freeze, sensing Josh tense up beside me. He’s about to answer, but I put my hand over his mouth. I take a deep breath, steadying my voice.
“Yeah, just woman problems!”
“Oh, okay, I won’t pry then. Is Josh in there with you?”
“No, I think he went out to get something from his car!”
“Okay, we’re ready to start now, so just make haste!”
“Gottcha!”
Josh lets out a small laugh, impressed by my quick thinking.
“You usually don’t have a cold head after this”
“Well, maybe being riskier has made me more cunning”
“Hmm, maybe”
“Let's clean up and get out” I state, reaching for a random towel and some water to clean off my back. Josh splashes water in his face, fixing his hair and getting his clothes back on. I put on my garments, his fingers outstretched to comb through my hair, settling the mess.
“Where should we put the towel?” I ask, holding the white fabric up, looking for a laundry basket.
“Where does he put his laundry?”
“Don’t look at me as if I know” I defend, putting my hands up.
“Let’s just leave it on the floor”
“On the floor? Josh, are you insane, that’s not guestly behaviour”
“Well, fucking in your best friend’s bathroom is not either”
I shake my head, leaving the towel on the ground, kicking it a little to the side so it’s not in the way. Everyone puts their dirty clothing on the floor anyway. He would probably see it, think it’s dirty and then throw it in the washing machine. After all, he would never know that we had sex here. I wasn’t planning on telling him.

So like Hyuna has a prostetic/mechanical leg, right. Reader doing some maintance on her leg. It gets a little flirty no doubt but reader is all professional despite the attempts. Does off handedly say their good with the hands, they don't register the potential suggetive undertones...
Basically more flirty Hyuna and oblivious reader! (Its an adgenda I didn't know I had)
“You're Good With Your Hands”
Summary: Hyuna needs a routine maintenance check on her mechanical limb. As you work, she flirts playfully, teasing you with double entendres, while you remain completely oblivious to her advances. Despite her charm, you focus on your task, completely unaware of the sparks flying between the two of you. However, as the interaction wraps up, you start to wonder if maybe you missed something...
Tags: Hyuna x Reader, Fluff, Light Flirting, Oblivious Reader, Teasing, Unspoken Chemistry, Romantic Tension.
Warnings: Mild suggestive content (flirting), Emotional undertones, Minor physical contact.
A/N: it's an agenda, we didn't know we needed 🙏





The hum of tools echoed in the small workshop. It wasn’t much, just a dimly lit space tucked away in the corner of the rebel hideout, but it had everything you needed for the job at hand. Hyuna sat on a chair in the center, her long legs stretched out in front of her as you crouched down beside her, focused on her prosthetic leg. The mechanical limb gleamed under the light, a perfect blend of technology and design. But, like all things, it needed maintenance.
“Are you sure you know what you're doing?” Hyuna’s voice was light, teasing, as she leaned back in her chair, arms crossed loosely over her chest.
“I’ve worked with this kind of stuff before,” you replied, not looking up from your tools as you adjusted the small panel on the side of her prosthetic. "Just need to make sure everything's calibrated properly."
She tilted her head, her hair catching the light, a small smirk playing on her lips. "Mm, well, if you're good with your hands, I guess I can trust you."
You paused for a moment, glancing up at her, but didn’t catch the glint in her eyes. "Yeah, I’ve been doing this kind of work for a while. I’ve got steady hands," you said, returning to your task.
Hyuna let out a soft laugh, her eyes flickering with something mischievous. "I bet you do. Steady hands can be a valuable asset in more ways than one, don’t you think?"
You tightened a bolt, trying to focus, but her teasing didn’t make it easy. “Well, I’m just doing my job. You know, keeping things running smoothly.”
"Smoothly, huh?" She leaned in slightly, the movement so subtle it was almost imperceptible, but it made your heart skip a beat. "You’re sure it’s only about the maintenance, or are you making sure everything’s running perfectly?"
Your face flushed slightly, and you focused even harder on the prosthetic, your hands steady despite the way her gaze seemed to burn into you. "It's just maintenance, Hyuna. Nothing more, nothing less."
"Mm," she hummed thoughtfully, her voice now more of a whisper. "Sure about that?"
You let out a sigh of relief when the final panel clicked into place. "There. Good as new."
Hyuna stretched her legs out with a satisfied grin, clearly pleased with the work. "I’ll admit, you do a good job. Maybe you should make a habit of keeping me in top condition."
You rose to your feet, brushing off your hands. "I’ll keep that in mind. I’m all about precision and efficiency."
She winked at you, leaning back in the chair, her playful demeanor not hiding the deep, lingering sadness in her eyes. "I think we could both use some efficiency right now. There’s a lot to do, after all."
You caught the look in her eyes for just a moment before she masked it with her usual charm, and you found yourself briefly distracted by how real she was in those fleeting seconds.
“Anyway, your leg’s all set. Anything else you need?” you asked, trying to stay professional despite the warmth creeping up your neck.
Hyuna stood, slowly stretching her arms above her head. She seemed to enjoy the way you didn’t react to her subtle flirtations, as if it was a game to her. "I think you’ve done enough for today, don't you think?" she said, her voice low and smooth.
You blinked, not fully catching the meaning in her words. "Yeah, I’ll leave you to it."
Before you could walk away, Hyuna reached out and lightly grabbed your arm, her fingers brushing your skin. The touch was brief, but it sent a spark of warmth through you.
"Thanks for the help," she said softly, but her smile was more than a simple thank you. It was playful, teasing, and it made your pulse race.
You nodded, trying to mask the nervous energy buzzing in your chest. "Of course. Anytime."
As you walked away, you couldn’t help but replay the interaction in your mind, wondering if maybe you had missed something. But no, you had to focus. There was too much at stake for distractions.
And yet, as the day carried on, you couldn’t shake the feeling that Hyuna wasn’t just teasing... maybe, just maybe, she was waiting for you to catch on.

The Science of Why Raphael Won’t Get Tf Out of My Head
It’s your local doctor in cambion physiology here. I’m going to take you through my theory about why Raphael is stuck in our heads. It’s all based on Science™, of course. Some of these carefully studied theories are dependent on the fact that you are the owner of a uterus. If you aren’t, then idk. I can’t help you. You’re a medical anomaly. It’ll all make sense in a moment, don’t worry about it.
There are a couple of things that I believe are necessary for prolonged focus on a specific character (Source: The Devil, Bite. 2024: Pulled it out of my ass):
Attraction: It helps if said character is hot.
Versatility: I’ll explain later.
A feeling of being able to relate to said character
Attraction
There’s this theory about how women’s attraction to men changes in accordance with their menstrual cycles (source and source). Basically the study says that when a woman is at her most fertile, she prefers more traditionally masculine looking men. However, the rest of her cycle she might prefer men who lean more towards the feminine (both in general qualities and physical attributes).
The whole point of this, is that at ones most fertile, it’s full on monkey brain genetics going “he looks strong and male, so he’ll make good offspring”, while for the rest of the time, it’s more attractive to find someone who actually has good partnership potential. Someone who is reliable and caretaking, and who would be stable in a longer relationship.
I suppose you could sum it up to one being a more romantic attraction while the other is more of a primal and carnal attraction.
Now I want you too look at this very educational graph that I used a couple of minutes to slap together:
Basically, my argument is that though Raphael is not stable or caretaking in any form, the difference between the two forms still visually fits into the two respective categories. His human form for the rest of the cycle, and his cambion form (the ascended form too if you’re freaky, I guess) that seems more traditionally masculine when fertility is highest.
That means that you can look at his dumb face throughout your whole cycle, but might feel a shift in which one you find more attractive (if all this science stuff is correct).
Even if the science behind all of this is bullshit, I still believe that different forms help when it comes to not getting tired of looking at someone.
Versatility
I’m just going to say it, even though my heart might disagree: Raphael would not have the effect he has if he was a more explored character with more screentime in canon. We would all love more Raphael, but I really think the reason for his longevity in our minds is that he is still somewhat mysterious.
Which parts are actually him and which parts are performance? What is he like behind closed doors? How much devil and how much man is he? We don’t really know. We have been given puzzle pieces, but there’s still a loooot of space free for interpretation, which is honestly what makes him great.
It’s been said before in this little corner of the internet: there are so many versions of Raphael, and the great thing is that people are never fighting over which Raphael is the “right” one. Some prefer Soft!Raphael, while others prefer Dark!Raphael. The versatility of his character’s representation allows for that, which I know at least has kept me interested for a long time when it comes to writing him.
Being able to relate
In much the same vein as above, people find different ways to relate to him. The thing on top of that is the feeling that we shouldn’t be able to relate to someone like him, which adds a certain level of taboo to it which is interesting.
He is both the smoothest mf alive and the biggest cringefail loser behind closed doors. He’s obsessive, weird, and too fucking much to be near for a longer period of time. He writes his contracts as songs because he likes ‘whimsy’. He’s got daddy issues and makes that everyone’s problem. There’s a lot to him that someone would at least be able to relate to at some level.
In conclusion
He is without a doubt the character I have hyperfixated on for the longest time, and I know it’s the same for a few others. I genuinely believe it’s because there is so much to him. If you get tired of one aspect of him, there are always other aspects of him to focus on, both physically and psychologically, instead.
And there is some variation to the attraction that I atleast can feel myself. If I have written a lot of darker stuff about him for a while, I get the urge to write something softer, and the cool thing is that you can do that and it still makes sense with the character. My preference for his forms vary often too.
Even when I tried to focus on other characters, I found myself returning to Raphael, because those other characters were often too fleshed out canon-wise. It quickly bores me because then there is a limit to what you can do with them.
There is a lot to Raphael and he’s like a glob of clay. You can mold him into whatever you like.
Thank you for coming to my TedTalk.

October Sun
summary: the ability had manifested after your first semester of 7th grade. after the farmhouse cellar. after the EMTs and the policemen and Then Deputy Baxter. it was something you kept to yourself. it made you more vulnerable to the things that go bump in the night, which was why you never used it. or so you thought.
pairing: Wally Clark x fem!reader
warnings: eventual smutty smut smut. and mad spoilers. and obvious Canon divergence. very involved, very dense plot.
bon reading, frens
___________________________💀
OCTOBER SUN pt.9
The pulse between you and Wally flared to a fever pitch, swirling and cresting around you, into you, through you. One hand in your hair, fingers kneading; the other secure on your hip, supporting you firmly in his arms.
You wanted to bask in it forever, an intoxicating maelstrom of sensation, and all at once every pop ballad you'd heard growing up made sense. The kiss deepened and shallowed; a swipe of his tongue, twin gasps, a moan, then back in, hungry and untethered.
Wally placed you on the edge of the stage, careful, like a totem at an altar, his lips never leaving yours for more than a breath. He stood between your thighs, big hands roaming down your arms to your waist, hips, up again, fingers teasing under the hem of your t-shirt.
Gradually, the feeling of hot need now lessened, though didn't dissipate completely. Rather, it softened into something contented, manageable. Satisfied now that you and Wally were tangled in each other's space.
Thoughts filtered in through the thinning cloud; questions you had to ask; admissions you had to give, so you put a stalling hand on Wally's chest and nudged gently.
"Wait," You said, and now you knew what you sounded like after being ravished to oblivion, wow. "We need to talk."
Wally blinked his eyes open, sweet brown almost entirely eclipsed by arousal. His lips, kiss-plumped and red, turned up in a smile you couldn't help but mirror. Even though you'd shunned all reason—had gone against a lifetime of rules and shared yourself with a ghost—you felt at peace for the first time in days.
"What's up, baby?" Wally asked, pressing his forehead to yours. He took your hands in his, fingers laced, like he was reveling in being able to touch you. He waited patiently for you to speak. But as you were about to, a lightbulb seemed to blink on in his head and he straightened. "Hold up," his voice dropped to a panicked whisper. "If you don't want anyone else to know, we should get out of here or Mina—"
"Is on lunch—" You air quoted, "—for another thirty minutes. She goes twice a day, sits outside the door, eats the same ham and cheese her mom packed her, and smokes the same cigarette she stole off Miranda Paterson before rehearsal."
Wally gaped, "I~ did not know that." Then he frowned cutely, "How do you know that?"
"My mom." You admitted, "She graduated the same year Mina died and warned me about it before I started here. She actually witnessed Mina's first loop." You grimaced, "The benefits of a residual haunting, I guess."
"Residual haunting?"
As you spoke, you crossed your ankles at the small of Wally's back and guided him back to you, "Basically, the worst kind of loop a ghost can get stuck in." A peck to his lips, "At least, in my opinion."
"You know a lot about this stuff, huh?" He asked through quick, dry kisses of his own, grinning smugly when you chased his mouth as he leaned away. "Do you know why I can touch you?" The question was barely a whisper, his teeth tugging your bottom lip before he pressed another kiss to your lips.
A little gasp and then you said, "It's impossible, right?" Asking yourself the same question.
"So, you don't have all the answers..." Wally grinned with mischief in his eyes, hands sliding from your hips to your ass.
You blushed and licked your lips, watched in fascination as Wally tracked the movement before doing the same. He squeezed your ass, fingertips digging into your flesh, pulled you roughly against him, and nipped your lower lip.
"Tease," He said, rolling his hips against you so you could feel how worked up he was.
You moaned, the pulse flaring again, brief and bright, and when you pulled apart, you couldn't stop yourself from simply staring at him. Taking in every feature, every mole; the shape of his mouth as he smiled laxly back at you. Fuck, he was gorgeous. Like he walked right off the pages of a magazine.
"Hey, you don't know either." You defended through a grin that quickly melted. Your heart pitter-pattered as his eyes heated and his fingers kneaded your ass, rocking you against him. His breath hitched with yours, a choked, needy moan released from his chest.
"True," Wally breathed, grazing the tip of his nose along your neck. "But I'm a ghost. You're alive and can see me; you have a lot more to answer for, baby."
And oh God, the term of endearment shot spikes of heat through you.
"My family has a long history with ghost stuff. According to my great-aunt, we can trace it all the way back to the Arthurian Age." You punctuated your statement with a lingering kiss, separating on a sigh. "You make it really hard to concentrate."
You felt kind of dumb admitting that aloud and were relieved when Wally snickered, "Back at you."
He stroked the back of his pointer finger down your cheek, gazing at you as if in worship. It was heady being on the receiving end of such a look, and you hoped he saw in your eyes equal awe and appreciation. Wally was honestly the most incredible person you'd ever met. The fact that you were able to feel him as if he were alive; to touch and kiss and experience, honestly wasn't what stood out to you. What made more of an impression was how little you knew about the guy whose skin you wanted to crawl in to and never come out.
On that note, "What's your favorite color?" you asked, wanting to devour every piece of information you could about Wally.
He looked adorably rightly confused, but answered anyway, "Uhm, red. Yours?"
"Purple." Some days. "Or dark orange." Sounded more accurate, but actually, "Mostly green, but not, like, neon or anything."
Wally pressed his lips together, suppressing a goofy smile for a couple of seconds before surrendering it. "That answer totally suits you." He bussed you on the nose, making you go cross-eyed for a moment, "Why do you wanna know?"
"Because I don't know anything about you, but here I am, wanting you to do dirty, nasty things to me on a stage at school..." And whyyy did you have to phrase it like that? You mentally cringed, cheeks a bright red and eyes flitting away to avoid his.
His hands gripped your ass harder and dragged you impossibly closer. "That can be arranged," Wally said, husky. Turned your attention back with a gentle hand and kissed you like reckoning, his fingers sliding into your hair while you whined into the kiss. When he pulled away, "God, I've wanted to do this forever," he admitted and, holy shit, he couldn't just say things like that.
Dazed, "Me too," then you murmured in thought, "Although before yesterday, it wasn't like an obsession." You gazed hopelessly at him, "It's like I can't think about anything else anymore when you're within ten feet from me."
"Same," Wally said before his expression turned calculating, "What's changed?"
You cocked your head, "What do you mean?"
Wally kissed you softly then said, "You've managed to ignore me for three years because neither of us felt desperate to climb into each other's skin. I haunted you for a month straight two years ago and you didn't budge. Since yesterday...babe, it's like I can feel you. Like you're in my head. So...why now?"
He was right.
You were a little impressed and a lot turned on. Wally had always come across to you as a bit of a stereotypical jock: somewhat slow on the uptake, but well-meaning and full of heart. And muscle. And you had to shut that thought down right there before your mind wandered again.
As you tried to think up plausible reasons—Venus was in Aries; a new connected-energy conduit had formed in the earth below the school; hormones. Fuck knew what it could've been because nothing added up—Wally's thumb rubbed circles into your skin under your shirt, his lips brushing distracting kisses to your neck.
"No clue," You shivered, drew him into another short, sweet kiss, and then continued, "I tried to find some information about randomly occurring ghost-lust last night, but there was nothing." At his confused look, you revealed, "We have a pretty specific collection of books at home."
"A magical library?"
"It's not magic," You said, "It's connectedness," and chewed your lip in thought as you tried to logically answer what catalyst could've been responsible for your sudden insatiable horniness for Wally. A deep, weary sigh. You pressed your fingers into your eyes before dropping forward to rest your forehead against Wally's sternum. Jesus, he smelled good. Oaky. "It could be caused by the same output that's keeping me from seeing Maddie..."
Wally reeled back, visibly shocked, "Hold up, you can't see Maddie?" And, oh, oops, did you not mention that before? You shook your head. "So. At the bus stop yesterday, you really had no idea she was there?"
Wait a damn minute, "Maddie was there?!"
"Yeah, she followed you and, uh, What's His Name—"
"Simon." You supplied, eyes wide and horrified. You really couldn't detect Maddie at. all.
"Him, yeah. She followed you guys out there. Wanted to see if you knew something about what happened to her."
Casting your mind back to yesterday's conversation, you tried to recall if Simon had mentioned anything worthwhile. Except, he hadn't wanted to talk about Maddie. Not initially, not until you brought her up. Simon had wanted to talk about, "Whether or not I can see ghosts..." You glanced up at Wally. "That can't be a coincidence. What if Simon's like me? If Maddie's on your side of the veil, maybe Simon can actually see her...and that's why he wanted to know if I could see her too."
Wally gave you a sympathetic look, "Trust me, that guy can't see ghosts."
"And how would you know that?" You raised a skeptical eyebrow.
"I've been here for a while, pretty girl." For some reason, that fact made your heart ache, "You're the only person with a pulse I've seen who I ever thought might be able to see me back."
"But that's the point. My mom was a freshman when you..." Died, you couldn't bring yourself to say. Moving on, "She would've seen you after that and you obviously didn't pick up on it."
Wally stared at you, long and hard, and conceded, "Okay, let's pretend Simon can see ghosts." It was clear by his tone he didn't believe it. "If he can, and he can see Maddie, then why can't you?"
"Good question."
Taking him by the wrists, you encouraged him to wrap his strong arms around you, tucking your head under his chin and circling your arms loosely around his waist. You felt safe, wrapped up in him like that. Like nothing bad could or would ever happen to you again.
"Maybe it's Maddie?" Wally suggested. "Maybe you can't see her because she's new? She hasn't been dead as long as the rest of us, only since last Friday..."
"Not how this works. Plus, if that was the case, and Simon can see her, it still doesn't explain anything." You replied playfully, bumping the tip of your nose to his, "Trust me, it takes four minutes before a person goes from attached to their earthen vessel to haunting the science lab."
A wicked, ruthless moment for everyone involved.
The scar on your left hand itched, reminding you of that night in the farmhouse cellar. Where you'd discovered—down to the second—how long it takes a soul to disconnect from the living world and ascend. Or cross-over, as most people called it.
Your brain felt like sludge against the connection between you and Wally, more interested in continuing to feel his lips and hands on any and every piece of you, but you persevered.
Maddie was a ghost, fact: Wally had spent time with her. Simon had asked you whether or not you could see ghosts which, on the surface, not suspicious, however, in the context of Maddie actually being a ghost, mildly strange. There was only one explanation you could think of, but you weren't sure it was even worth bringing up.
All you knew for certain was that, "Maddie can't be dead."
Wally wasn't convinced, "She seems pretty dead to me. I can see her. Rhonda, and Charley, and the others can see her. No one else can."
You considered Wally for a moment. Asked, "Does she feel different to you at all?"
"Different how?"
"Like...other. Not as present." And you watched Wally think seriously about it. It should've piqued your curiosity that Wally couldn't outright say for sure whether or not Maddie's ghost was different than the others he haunted the school with, but you were too focused on getting to the bottom of why you couldn't see Maddie in the first place. Not waiting for his answer, you said, "I think she might be trapped."
"You mean more trapped than the rest of us?" Wally chuckled, dry and humorless.
The statement inspired a whole host of questions that you forced yourself to ignore for the time being.
"This is gonna sound insane—"
"You're literally talking to a ghost."
"Insane-er," You amended, "But Maddie could've slipped into an In Between somehow." You barely had an argument, the list of hypotheticals dismal against what knowledge you'd collected from various factual sources, but it was the closest thing you had to a lead. "Look, death is a very direct journey from one plane to the next, no detours. I see dead people. I can't see her. And if she isn't dead, then the only other possible thing I can think of is that she's stuck in an In Between. It would also reasonably explain why Simon can see her and I can't...if he can, I mean."
Wally's eyes seemed to be trailing an onslaught of thoughts as they traveled across his mind. "Okay, yeah, you're right, that sounds insane. What the hell is an In Between?"
"It's—" A distant metallic snap-shudder pierced the otherwise quiet theater, interrupting you. Before you were able to discern where it had come from, you felt a hand grab your shoulder from behind.
You gasped, knocked back into yourself, and when you looked up, you saw Wally in a state of bewilderment, standing with his mouth agape and eyes the size of dinner plates, at the end of the center aisle that's length now divided you.
A familiar, though markedly less friendly, voice demanded, "What are you doing in here?" and when you glanced over your shoulder, Mr. Anderson stared, hard and haggard, awaiting your explanation.

HHEELLLOOO POOKIE GUESS WHO'S BACKKKKK AGAINNN
Ok so for the friendship drama my friend said that she was talking abt someone else but it sounds like a lie imo BUT im not gonna say anything for now until I have more clues to go off of
And for my requestttt today I'd like to ask for reader jumping kaiser :D (I worded that horribly, didn't I?)
My main idea is that kaiser is basically upset about something (it can be anything honestly) and he's super distracted right, so then we (insert that one red russian bodice or corset with a scandalous symbol) pull up and give him the tightest hug ever (rip kaiser your rib cage will be missed) and just like another him with kisses and stuff like aaaaaaaaaggguhsdynkoijjk
Also, if like this was more early on in their relationship (who cares about how english works I'll write whatever I want) kaiser would be like so shocked and honestly that's just so cute like sghhhgfvhknhgg
Ruby Tease
HAIIIII I hope you get more clues lmao
‧₊˚ ┊ In which you catch Kaiser distracted<3
⋮ ⌗ ┆cw ⪼ fluff, female reader, use of pet names, suggestive!, might be a lil ooc!, established relationship

You and your boyfriend had recently gone shopping, it was mainly him just picking out different nightwear and accessories for you–but you had fun. Besides when he tried to buy certain sets that were just string or covered rarely anything appropriate.
It was a little bit after you got home, when Kaiser told you to do a fashion show for him. He sat on the couch manspreading–getting comfortable as he smirked up at you.
“Go on Liebe, I’m waiting.”
Sighing, you took the ten bags in hand and walked into your shared bedroom. Taking your time with pulling each set out and choosing which one to wear for him.
Meanwhile, Kaiser’s mood was deplinishing–not because of you–but due to one of his teammates messaging him about practicing on one of the days off. Saying he couldn’t unless another member was there. Why on earth would he want to be at the field when he could be with you.
You walked out of the room, dressed in a pretty red lace set, standing close to the doorway as your boyfriend hadn’t noticed you yet. The blonde grumbled while he shut off his phone and placed it aside. Closing his eyes as he rubbed at his temples.
Taking this chance you sneaked up to him and launched yourself at him. Wrapping your arms around his chest as he fell back against the cushions gasping in shock.
You laughed sitting up and seeing his flustered cheeks. Straddling his hips while in your new outfit. “How does it look?” You asked, making Kaiser slowly look over your body. You watched as his adam’s apple bobbed, wetting his lips slightly as he nodded. “Amazing…” He answered with a husky voice.
You caressed his cheek gently, “What had you all upset?” You questioned as Kaiser shook his head, “Just a nobody on the team.”
You nodded as he leaned forward and kissed you. Taking you by surprise before you slowly kissed back. Your kisses had gotten better, after all you didn’t have your first kiss until getting with Kaiser. And it had only been a year since you first made it official.
Kaiser’s hands slipped over your hips and onto your ass grabbing it as the kiss deepened. You pulled away for the air, soft pants leaving you as your boyfriend groaned in displeasure.
“Sorry, but I still have more outfits to show you. So what do you rate this one?”
Kaiser glared at you before rolling his eyes, “9.5/10”
You laughed as you got off him and ran back into the bedroom.
©hey-itsdollie please don't copy, change, or steal my work. Thank you!

Nothing's Gonna Stop Us Now
Chapter Six of Under Pressure: A Thunderbolts Fic
SERIES MASTER LIST | MAIN MASTER LIST
Previous | Next
Word Count: ~6.8k
Warnings: Mentions of death and violence, THUNDERBOLTS SPOILERS?, mentions of childhood trauma, language, mentions of Pepper and Morgan, Bucky acts like a dad/concerned uncle(let me know if I missed anything)
Author's Note: Went on a trip for my birthday and finally got back, so sorry for the late chapter. I'm hoping to at least post once a week. Anyways, this chapter is a fun one, and the beginning to the speculating (basically, I get to make stuff up, so yay!) The team gets food and finds a place to crash for the day, more Bob and Reader moments...I hope you enjoy!
⋆˖⁺‧₊☽◯☾₊‧⁺˖⋆
The restaurant was practically empty besides the seven of you in the wake of the Void incident, yet if you were to close your eyes, it’d be just as loud as rush hour, when everyone trickled in from their lunch breaks with the time clicking until they returned to work. Beside you, Alexei was chewing. His mouth was wide open, letting more food fall onto his plate than what was actually swallowed down his throat. He was chipper, even though you all had risked your lives, nearly died numerous times, and had been up for more days than were healthy. Still, he loudly jumped from conversational topics, starting with his disdain for the Avengers title, saying he liked the Thunderbolts more, then somehow ended up telling everyone the story of an after-mission party in Russia. You were glad there were no children in the restaurant due to the lewd direction Alexei’s story was taking. You were hardly paying attention, instead watching Walker’s face contort as he tried to swallow his next bite of food. Watching, you tried to hide your snicker as John gagged on a bite of his food at Alexei’s next words.
“Oh no,” Yelena groaned into her hand. Her fingers dragged down her face, elongating her embarrassed expression. “No, no, Alexei,” she called out. “No one wants to hear about that as we eat.”
“Yelena,” Alexei exasperated, throwing his arms up into the air, shooting bits of food at all of you. Flinching, you narrowly missed the chunk of lettuce coming your way. “It’s natural. You feel the glory of the battle and want to share success with others. Huh?” His eyes widened with enthusiasm, seeking agreement from the men at the table. Walker shifted uncomfortably in his seat, unsure whether to encourage the man. Meanwhile, Bucky waved his hand dismissing the notion entirely, which left Bob; And Alexei singled out poor Bob. With a clap, Alexei patted Bob’s back, wiggling his brows. In turn, Bob arched his back, wriggling out of Alexei’s hold. “You understand Bob. I see in eyes.”
“I-uh-I don’t-sure?” Bob managed to stammer out. His eyes fell on you for an escape, to which you simply shrugged, not wanting to be a part of this. An action Alexei didn’t miss.
“See!” Alexei stood up triumphantly. A smirk appeared on his face in a not-so-whisper, and he leaned into Bob. “Let me guess, you share success today with–”
“Dad!” Yelena pleaded. “Can you stop?” Alexei’s face fell at his daughter's words.
“I thought it was never going to end,” Ava muttered under her breath before taking a sip of her soda.
“Tell me about it,” Walker added.
By now, there was no sign of any staff members. You didn’t blame them for making themselves scarce. However, it didn’t take long for Alexei to bring up another story to share with the others. This time, more PG-friendly.
“Pst,” Bucky called out to you, stopping you mid-bite. He nudged his head, asking you to follow him. If the others noticed you two leaving, they made no note of it. Walking to the corner by the bathrooms, Bucky stopped you with a firm expression printed onto his face. You knew that look well. It’s one that you've had a plethora of experience with, seeing it from Tony, occasionally Steve, and the others. You cleared your throat, crossing your arms over your chest to prepare for the upcoming reprimand. “Now that we have a chance, care to explain your involvement with the…,” Bucky motioned to the others at the table, “Bob ordeal?”
“Bucky–” you sighed, but he cut you off with a wave of his hand.
“You said you were going to get evidence–”
“Which I did,” you interjected. Bucky’s eyebrows raised at your words. “Look, can we talk about this later, cause I’m-”
“No, Y/N. We won’t talk about this later. You know why?” His hands were resting at his hips now. You rolled your eyes at him, glancing back at the table as Yelena and Ava snickered at Walker choking on his food again. Bucky cleared his throat, awaiting an answer from you. You grumbled a “why,” allowing Bucky to continue his scolding.
“Because you nearly got yourself killed, and from what the others told me, at least three times. One of which I witnessed.” You winced as each word left Bucky’s mouth. You understood his concern, but you were no longer the kid who ran and hid with Steve and Bucky all those years ago. You were an adult and had been for a while.
“Look, I get you’re concerned–”
“That puts it lightly.”
“Bucky, I’m not a child anymore!” You yelled, your voice carried over to the now-silent table. You tried to ignore how their eyes bore into the back of your head, their ears itching to hear more of Bucky’s and your private conversation. “I–I can handle myself.” Your eyes finally met his icy blue ones. “I got the evidence for the trial. End of Story.”
Bucky opened his mouth to refute your words, but you shut him down. “Look, I’m sorry.” Bucky’s eyes lowered. “I got a live location and message from FRIDAY, only for it to disappear with no updates. Then you go and sacrifice yourself to buy us time to get out. So yeah, I’m concerned.” Guilt floods your system. Gently, you place your hand on Bucky’s arm. He reciprocated, lightly patting your hand in return.
“So?” You asked, breaking the silence. “What’s next? With the impeachment, I mean.”
You watched as Bucky’s face scrunched up. His jaw clenched tightly. “I don’t know.”
“What do you mean you don’t know?” you tensed. You shook your head. This isn’t how the story was supposed to go. You got the evidence, and now Valentina gets sent to jail—end of Story. “I sent you the evidence. We–” You pointed back to the table at the others. Yelena waved to you before turning back to her food. “Can testify against her. Hell, maybe even put her in federal prison for attempted murder.”
“Yeah?” Bucky raised his brows at your words, his shoulders tensing by his ears. “Well, she just tied all of us to her.” You felt every drop of blood in your body go cold. The New Avengers, the live broadcast. Hell, she got you and Bucky on screen as well. You two hadn’t said anything, but your presence was enough. “Doesn’t help, she wiped O.X.E’s slate clean. The investigation came up clear. Nothing.”
“Fuck,” you cursed, fingers reaching into your hair to clench tightly at the strands. “She’s gonna get away scotch free…and we’ll be screwed if we try anything against her.” You fought the urge to kick the wall beside you, but your willpower wasn’t as strong as you thought it had been. Your foot kicked out. The wall thudded, and a framed photo fell to the ground, shattering.
A chorus of ooo’s erupted from behind you.
“Someone’s in trouble,” Yelena teased.
Your ears flushed as you bent down to pick up the frame. Dusting off the photo, you took a step towards the counter, firstly to apologize, but then to clean up the mess you had made, but something stopped you. It had taken you a moment to recognize the faces in the photo, but you’d know them anywhere. The picture was dated to the Battle of New York and was signed by each member of the original Avengers. Your finger traced over their faces, stopping on your Father’s.
“You’re more like him than you think,” Bucky whispered into your ear. You whirled around to face him again, a chuckle escaping your mouth.
“Yeah, sure, you’re just saying that,” you disagreed. The frame dropped to your side. “He was a hero. Sometimes a bit of an overprotective asshole, but a hero…” You trailed off. “Nothing like me.” Your eyes trailed back to the table, unconsciously meeting Bob’s. He offered you a small smile before turning his gaze back onto Walker, who now took the opportunity to share one of his war stories. “I just don’t want to fail them. It’s funny,” you chuckled. “We’re a bunch of messed-up, traumatized people who were alone but found each other and made this,’ you whirled your hands trying to conjure up the word. “This team…it just,” You grew quiet. “Reminds me of them–The Avengers.”
Bucky took a step closer to you. His hand came to gently pry the photo from your hands. He held it up to you. The photo mirrored the team sitting at the table. Your eyes widened at what he was trying to get. You quickly snatched the frame back from him, shaking your head. “No. Bucky, no–”
“I think we have a shot–”
“Then Valentina would fuck us over. Remember? We’re chained to her.”
“Then become strong enough to steal those chains out from under her,” Bucky enunciated. You frowned. “There’s a reason Valentina wanted you to help her little PR stunt with the Sentry. You’re the daughter of the Avengers. Your name holds power. It’s time you took it back and made them proud.”
You shook your head, stepping into the shadows of the corner, your shoulders caving in on themselves. “But–but what if I fail? What if I just give Valentina more power and–”
“Then we’ll be beside you. Together as a team.” Bucky had never seemed more determined. A light flickered in his eyes at the proposal. You bit your lip, thinking it over and over. Your eyes darted back and forth between the others and Bucky.
“Okay.”
A thunderous chorus of “Yes!” filled the air. It came from Alexei, who had quite the set of lungs on him. As his yell filled the air, you made a note to leave a large tip once you all left. You winced, noticing all of the others had been listening the whole time.
“Were you…” You trailed off, feeling your cheeks heat up.
“Listening to the entirety of your conversation? Yes.” Ava blatantly said. “You’re not very subtle.”
“But it’s fine,” Yelena finished. “As Bucky said, we’re a team now. No use in fighting Valentina alone.”
“Hate to cut the conversation short…” Walker added. You all turned to look at him as a humongous yawn crept out of his mouth. Like wildfire, the yawn ignited a chain reaction in all of you; Your minds remembering your lack of sleep. “But can we talk about the whole team and Beat-Valentina's operation once we’ve, you know, slept?”
Nods and murmurs of agreement echoed from all of you, but an important question hung in the air. Bob was the first to voice it.
“Uh, where exactly are we supposed to sleep?” He raised his hand in the air like a student asking permission from a teacher.
“That’s a great fucking question, Bob,” Walker announced. His eyes fell on you.
It took you a moment to realize, they were all looking at you. You sighed, pinching the bridge of your nose.
“You do live in New York—“ Bucky added. You shot him a glare. The New Avengers were sleeping at your place for the night.
⋆˖⁺‧₊☽◯☾₊‧⁺˖⋆
As you all lined up to enter your home, you wished you could turn invisible from all the looks your neighbors were giving you. You could only imagine how they felt: seven bloodied and beaten up, heavily armoured people, many of whom held terrifying demeanours, didn’t fit the prim and polished look the wealthy neighbor standardized. You offered tight-lipped smiles, occasionally acknowledging your neighbors until everyone had shuffled in.
You took in a sharp inhale of breath, scooting behind those still removing their shoes in the entryway, only exhaling when you got to the open living room.
“Now this…is home,” Alexei complimented, glancing around your house. His eyes fell on the various photos lining the walls. Some of which brought a smile to his face.
“Thanks,” you muttered, unsure of how to respond to the wave of visitors in your home. You weren’t one to have guests, even though you had numerous guest rooms and an air mattress in case anyone did come to visit. There had been some talks long ago for Pepper and Morgan to come visit, but they didn’t amount to much. Other than the occasional dinner with Bucky, Sam, and Clint, no one really stopped by.
“Shit your rich,” Ava noted, taking in the sight of your high end home decor. Walker laughed at Ava’s comment. His eyes lit up as he patrolled the room as if he were picturing himself living in a place like this.
Meanwhile, Yelena had made herself at home, plopping onto your couch. With a loud groan, she sank into the cushions. The grim and dirt from her armour rubbed into the fabric of the couch, but you didn’t care. “I’m stealing this couch, Stark.” You raised your brows at her comment. Part of you wouldn’t be surprised if you woke up one day to find it gone.
The only one who didn’t welcome them into your home was Bob. He stood by the entrance of the living room, lingering on the edge. You turned to him, opening your arms. “You’re welcome to make your home, Bob.”
“Oh, uh–” his eyes widened, taking a small step into the living room. Immediately, his eyes peered around the room in awe of it all. Glancing at the books and DVDs that lined the shelves along the far wall, you watched him stop and read all the titles. Occasionally, his hand would reach up to his mouth to wipe away something, his eyes finding something interesting on the ceiling.
Clearing your throat, you began to speak. “The kitchen is just past the living room.” Everyone’s eyes followed past your finger into the kitchen. “Feel free to help yourself to food. Uh–” you rubbed your temples, feeling a headache forming. “Two bathrooms, one on each floor. There’s showers if anyone, you know–Bedrooms, I got two guest rooms, and can inflate an air mattress in the office if–”
“I call the couch!” Yelena calls out, already draping an arm across her face. Soon after, the others began to stake claims to which bed they’d sleep in. Alexei took the guest room with the bunk bed, and Walker begrudgingly volunteered to take the bottom bunk. Ava snatched the other guest room, leaving Bucky the air mattress in the office. Once they all dispersed to their respective rooms to rest, clean up, etc., you realized Bob was still standing, with nowhere to go.
“You can take the couch with me, Bob,” Yelena murmured. Her voice was full of sleep. She was too tired to see the wave of discomfort Bob had to share the couch with her.
“There’s also my room,” You offered. Bob’s eyes squinted at you.
“Oh-uh, no, I can’t–”
“It’s fine, I’m not even tired,” you insisted. It was a lie, but Bob didn’t need to know that.
“I-uh, don’t sleep,” Bob shrugged his shoulders, tilting his head. “I mean–I have a hard time sleeping in places I’m not familiar with…sorry.”
“I get it,” you explained, trying not to overwhelm him. After all, his memory was still foggy from before. You weren’t sure he even remembered how he got to New York in the first place. “Do you want to take a shower or–”
“Nah,” Bob assured you. His eyes moved back over to the books on your shelf. His feet waddled closer to get a better look.
“You can read one if you’d like.” Bob looked back at you, and you felt another dismissal coming. “I’m serious. Most of ‘em are children’s and young adult novels. It was all I could read for the longest time…still, they’re a fun read.” You moved to stand beside him, reaching for one of your favorite novels. “This one is really good. Called The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse. Granted, it's a bunch of pictures and poems, but I loved it.” You smile at him, offering the book as a passage of time. Bob glances down at your hands, gently taking the book from you. Hugging it to his chest as if he were afraid of dropping it, he thanked you before turning away to take a seat on a nearby lounge chair.
Steps descending the stairs pulled you away from the bookcase. Walker shuffled down, approaching you with a question on his lips. “Got any extra toothbrushes and a change of clothes?” He asked you quietly, eyes narrowing on Yelena’s passed-out figure.
Your eyes widened. You hadn’t thought of that when offering your place for them to stay and sleep. You’d have clothes for the other women, but Bob, Alexei, Bucky, and John? Maybe you had something of your dad’s, but you weren’t inclined to give those shirts away just yet. “Oh, no. I can run out and grab something from the store, if you’d like.”
“All good,” Walker began to apologize. “I was just–”
“I’m sure the others want to change and get clean as well.” Walker was still trying to refute your generosity. “I don’t mind,” you insisted. Reluctantly, he nodded, stepping back towards the stairs as he thanked you.
Without wasting a moment, you had grabbed your keys and were on your way out the door when a passerby’s judgmental stare caught you. Groaning, you closed your front door and shuffled up the stairs. You snuck into your room, snatching a pair of clothes heading to the bathroom to wash up.
Your skin stung as you pulled up the shirt. All the cuts and scabs that now littered your body had practically sewn the fabric to your skin. Peeling it off, you fought back a wave of wincing. God, it hurt. With all the adrenaline drained from your body, the entirety of the situation hit you like a train. Luckily, the steamy hot strings of water pumping from the shower soothed your aches. You peered down at your feet, observing all the dirt, blood, and grime taint the water a dark brown. The water swirled at your toes, pooling at the drain before slipping out of sight. Blinking, you wipe some droplets of water from your face, reaching for your hair wash. You had a meticulous and efficient way of bathing: tackling your hair first, then your face, and your body. It didn’t feel right to wash yourself in any other way. If you washed your hair last, there’d be lingering remnants of shampoo and conditioner on your back, so then what was the point of washing your body before? Clint had given you some strange looks as you explained your routine to Nat one day. Granted, he probably still used three-in-one body wash for all his needs, but even so, it worked for you.
Rinsing the remaining bubbles of soap from your skin, you turned off the shower, stepping out to dry yourself. As if on cue, your phone screen lit up. Snatching it from its place on the counter, you answered the call. It was from Pepper, your mom.
“Hey,” you answered, using the towel to dry your hair, squeezing the water out. You had an inkling as to what she was calling about. Pepper never really called you for anything unless it was important or unless Morgan wanted to chat. You doubted Morgan was there since it was the middle of the day during the week, which meant school.
“So,” Pepper began. You could hear the tension in her voice from a mile away. “I saw an interesting news clip not long ago. Something about the New Avengers?” You sighed. “Care to explain?”
With a click of a bottle cap, you began to put on your skin care. Your skin let out a breath of relief, feeling the soothing and healing products coat it. “It's…a long story, Mom.”
“Well, I’d like to hear it, and don’t tell me you’re busy. I can see you are at your house.” You bit your lip, wincing. You had forgotten she had your phone’s location. Something about keeping track of the family. You didn’t blame her, knowing the shenanigans you and Dad had gotten up to.
You let out a huff of air. Your hands came to rest on the cool surface of the sink. You took in your appearance before taking a deep breath to explain everything to Pepper. “You remember I was helping with the impeachment trial?” You asked her. Pepper hummed. “Well, we needed evidence, not just…hearsay. So I went to get evidence. One thing led to the other, ended up saving New York City with a bunch of…” Friends? Superhumans? You couldn’t think of a good word, instead opting to just skip it over. Pepper would understand you anyway. “Valentina saw her opportunity and used it. Now the impeachment will lead to nowhere and…” You couldn’t help the audible sigh that escaped your mouth.
“And you’re just going to let her get away with it?” Pepper asked you.
You shook your head, realizing Pepper could see it. “No, I just–How did Dad do it?”
“Do what, Y/N?”
“Gain the favor of the public? Lead? Make a successful team in the first place? Do it all?” You took in a shaky breath, reaching for your clothes to offer some distraction from it all. “ Bucky said I should make him proud, do what they would want me to do, but–I don’t know what I’m doing and if I shou–”
“You already do make him proud,” Pepper interjected. “You always did.” You scoffed at that.
“Sure, it’s not like I went off and went rogue after…” Shame swallowed up your next words. “I failed him. Thought I was doing something good, and it just turns out I was hurting more than helping.”
“You were young, still a kid–”
“And that makes what I did okay? Pepper, I killed people with my–I hurt Morgan and Dad.”
“That’s not your fault. You know the mind stone did something to your powers–”
“Still.” You tensed. “It’s been years, and I should be able to control it, to touch–” Immediately, you opened the bottom bathroom drawer, pulling out a pair of gloves, pulling them over your hands and fingers.
After a pause on Pepper’s end, she began to speak. “You want to know how he did it?”
“Y-yeah,” your voice broke.
“He played the part and worked the people, never stopping for a moment to achieve his goal and protect his family. To protect you. It’s hard, Y/N. It took its toll on him, but there’s a reason the name Avengers is something revered and respected.” After a moment, she continued. “If anyone can do it, Y/N, it’s you.” Pepper’s voice was gentle and reassuring. Like how a warm blanket and cup of cocoa snap you out of the trance of a raging stormy night, Pepper pulled you out, grounding you.
“I gotta go pick up Morgan from school in a little bit–”
“Oh, I can let you go,” You sputtered.
“She misses you. I do too. It’s been a while since you came to visit. Maybe you can drive out here sometime soon? We can talk about this more–” You thought about it. The cabin by the lake. The warm walls that comforted you and held the remaining pieces of your family. It was a place where only rest and peace were found–the place where you said your final farewell to your Dad. Maybe a break would do you good. A place for you to find your bearings before tackling Valentina off her pedestal.
“Yeah, that sounds nice,” you interjected, cutting Pepper off. She let out a soft chuckle.
“We’ll talk later.”
“Tell Morgan I said hi,” you managed to say before the call ended.
Slowly, your eyes found your reflection in the mirror. You looked normal now. Fresh cuts still covered the skin of your cheeks, but you were clean and fresh. You took in a deep breath, muttering an affirmation to yourself. Cracking open the door, steam from the bathroom snuck out, clouding the air. You trekked down the stairs, snatching your wallet and keys from the bowl on your hallway cabinet. As you slipped on your shoes, a pair of footsteps crept up behind you.
“Uh–mind if I join you?” Bob asked, pulling at the end of his sleeve. “I can carry the bags, you know, help.”
You turned to look at him, smiling, “Book too boring for you?”
Bob shook his head. “Finished it actually.” Your eyes widened. Just how long had you been in the shower? “It was really good,” Bob added.
Shaking yourself out of your daze, you nodded, opening the door wide enough for the two of you. “Yeah, I wouldn’t mind the company–or the help.” Bob smiled back at you, slipping on his shoes before shuffling out the front door behind you.
⋆˖⁺‧₊☽◯☾₊‧⁺˖⋆
80s music blasted from the rickety speakers in the grocery store ceiling. It always played during the slow business hours. Where no one really was in the store besides those who no longer had better things to occupy their days, such as work, family, school, and more. It seemed you and Bob fell under that category with the numerous elderly folk roaming the long aisles searching for the best deal for their buck.
Bob strolled the aisles beside you, pushing the cart. He quietly hummed along to the current song playing from above as you perused the shelves. You already had three tubes of toothpaste chucked into the metal cart, each a different brand of a minty fresh variety. You were unsure if any of your house guests had a preference or not. You squinted at another brand, which advertised as eco-friendly. You raised your brow, shrugged, and placed it in the cart with the others. Better safe than sorry, you figured. Next came the toothbrushes. You never understood the reason for all the different brands and varieties. They all did the same thing, yet it seemed there was a meaningful difference in the shape and design of the toothbrush bristles. You frowned, trying to figure out the difference between the Ultra Soft Bamboo brushes and the Micro Nano toothbrushes. Sighing, you placed both back on the racks, reaching for the cheap three-dollar ones. They came in a pack of 12. Each with different cartoon characters plastered onto them. Granted, they were marketed towards children, but you were sure they’d care less.
Watching you place the toothbrushes into the cart, Bob let out a chuckle. You cocked your head at him as he wiped his mouth. “You put four different toothpastes in the cart and just a basic bag of toothbrushes.”
You glanced down at the cart, noticing the irony. A soft shrug left your shoulders. “I don’t know, it’s just people have different tastes and tooth brushes just…” You snickered, trailing off, not really having a reason for the diverse set of toothpastes. “Oh well, do you want to add anything?”
Bob shook his head. “Nah, I don’t have a preference. Just whatever works, I guess.”
“Same,” you agreed. “Never can understand the difference between all of these. Just too–”
“Overwhelming?” Bob finished.
You nodded. “Yeah, overwhelming. I get that we don’t want products to be in a monopoly, but why are there all these differences? Like, what even is the difference between…” You grabbed two random toothbrushes off the shelf. “...Essential Fresh Clean or Advance Clean, like they both clean, or at least I hope they do.”
All of a sudden, Bob let out a loud snort as waves of laughter rippled from his chest. You watched a large smile etch itself onto his face, as his nose scrunched up, hands doing the same, tucking in close to his body. You couldn’t help but soften at the sight. He seemed so carefree and so full of light. Like a lighthouse on a stormy night, his eyes lit up, shining their way through the dark. You couldn’t help but be mesmerized by them.
“S-sorry,” Bob managed to mutter in between his chortles. “It’s just–you’re so funny. You know that?”
You felt your ears growing hot from all the attention. Shyly, you glanced away, looking anywhere but at Bob. “Yeah, yeah. How ‘bout we move on from toothbrushes and onto the other things.” You said, reaching into your pocket to retrieve the list you had made. Your eyes scanned the different clothing sizes, and you had managed to figure out with the help of a very tired Yelena and a very intelligent AI. Who knew FRIDAY could deduce the approximate clothing size of everyone? With a click, you crossed out the toothbrush and paste section. “How’s your fashion sense, Bob?” You asked.
Bob shrugged before glancing down at his clothes. “Not great. I mean, I just wear…well, whatever.”
“Good enough for me,” You muttered, before telling him John’s, Bucky’s, and Alexei’s clothing sizes.
You figured you two could divide and conquer, leaving him to tackle the men’s section while you trekked through the women’s. As you perused each aisle of clothing racks, selecting items that Yelena or Ava might like, you navigated the sizing like a pro. While just as confusing as an ancient grimoire written before time itself existed, you took to understanding the language of women’s sizing well. Something you had Natasha to thank for. Meanwhile, the men’s sizing was too simple. It made you feel like there was some hidden agenda. You didn’t trust it. After you had grabbed a few shirts and pants in the sizes of your female house guests, you paused. Did Ava even wear anything besides her suit? You remember her mentioning something about how it helped her hold her body together in the physical realm. You glanced down at the clothes you got for her, contemplating whether you should put them back or not. Instead, you chose to leave them. She wore them if she wanted to, and if not, well, you had a few extra sets of clothes for the future.
Rolling the cart from the colorful women’s section into the beige and blue men’s section, you searched for Bob. Occasionally, you stopped to snicker at a strange quote plastered onto a shirt before moving on. It didn’t take long for you to find Bob, hiding behind a rack of pants. His eyes darted between the comfortable fabric of the sweat pants and the stiffer, nicer-looking trousers.
“Get both,” you spoke, coming up beside him.
Bob nearly jumped out of his skin. “Jesus!”
You chuckled. “Someone’s jumpy. Who’re these for?” You asked, pointing to the pants as you gently pried the pile Bob held in his hands, placing them into the cart.
“Uh, I got everything for the others, except–Does Walker seem like a sweatpants guy to you? I don’t know.”
You pursed your lips, excessively jutting out your bottom lip. “John’s definitely a pants kind of guy. I doubt the man’s worn anything other than shorts when lounging around. If you’re talking sweatpants, Alexei’s your man. Bucky…he’s a pants man, but also wears sweatpants.”
Bob cocked his brow at your words. “You seem very sure about Bucky’s taste.”
You scoffed. “Only had to live on the run with him for a while. Of course, Steve was there, but you learn a lot about a person living under the radar with them.” You noticed the questions popping up from Bob’s throat, waiting at the tip of his tongue. “The Sokovia Accords Debate?” Bob shook his head, unsure of what you were talking about. “It’s this set of agreements that regulates superhumans. Some of the Avengers were all for it; it held us accountable for our actions and their consequences. But others…well, they knew it meant the government would hold power over us.” You grew quiet as you took a pair of pants in John’s size and placed them in the cart. “I was scared and didn’t want to be under the government's control again. I suppose some of the others felt the same way. But it created a…divide amongst us.” You felt Bob’s eyes stare right through you. The pity, the sympathy, you didn’t want it. Shaking your head, you peered up at Bob with a tense smile. “They were repealed in the end. You know, after…the blip.”
Biting his lip, Bob reached out to grasp your arm and offer comfort. He couldn’t remember much about the blip, being in and out of intoxicated states. He had a hard time remembering anything from the haziness of his memory. But before his hand could touch you, you stepped back, taking a sharp inhale at the sight of his hand, his bare skin. “S-sorry,” Bob hurriedly said, pulling his hand back into his body.
You shook your head. “No, I’m sorry, I just–I don’t like touching people with my ability and all. Sometimes it’s fine and other times it’s…dangerous.” You stepped to the cart, taking the steering bar in your hands to push it to the grocery section of the store. You needed something other than some week-old beers and microwavable mac and cheese in your home. “It wasn’t always like that, you only had to worry about electronic things frying, but now…it’s everything—anything with energy. Anyway,” You muttered, trying to bring a more cheerful tone to the conversation. “Want to help me pick out something for dinner?” You didn’t give Bob time to answer before you had pushed the cart out of the men’s section.
Little conversation passed between you two as you selected some ingredients from the vegetable aisle. A simple pasta was easy enough to make and filling enough for seven people. You figured you’d also get some stuff to make sandwiches and some stuff for breakfast, unsure of how long everyone would be staying. Bob occasionally selected a few things to place into the cart. As the silence deepened between you two, you felt shame rising, boiling to the surface. The only sound accompanying the tension shifting in the air was the squeaking of the cart’s wheel. It had decided the weight of everything in the cart was too much for it. You couldn’t take one more deafening squeak, but couldn’t find it in yourself to say anything. Soon, you found yourself finished with the checkout, your card in hand. The cashier handed you your receipt as Bob placed the bagged goods into the cart, replacing you at the helm.
“Uh, I-” You kicked yourself, folding the receipt into a tiny little square. What were you going to say? Sorry for unconsciously dumping trauma onto you. Sorry for shutting down your help. Sorry for being a dick? None of the options your mind came up with sat well with you. Instead, you found yourself addressing a different topic. “Want to help me make…dinner?”
“You don’t sound very sure about that,” Bob noted, sensing the uncertainty in your voice.
“No, I want your help–I just meant–Is it really dinner? God,” you groaned. “I’m exhausted.”
“Thought you said you weren’t tired,” Bob repeated, unconsciously leaning into you. Not quite brushing shoulders, but close enough, you could feel the warmth radiating off of him. “Offered me your room to sleep in and everything.”
“Right. I did.” You sighed, glancing up at him. “Well, Bob, I lied. I fucking tired. Yeah, I was unconscious after crashing down from the sky, but there’s a difference in resting and being in an unresponsive state–”
“Wait, you what?”
You paused, having arrived at your car. You clicked the button that lifted the trunk. Your nose scrunched up slightly. “Do you…remember?” You shook your head. “What do you remember?”
“Uh,” Bob muttered, placing two bags into the back of your car. “Last I remember, I ran out, distracting everyone, and I saw you…” His eyes locked onto yours, his eyebrows pinching together. “You were calling out my name. They were–” He looked away. You watched as the muscles in his jaw clenched. You gulped. “You were supposed to be in the car with the others, but you came after me. W-why?”
You unloaded the last bag into the trunk, pulled the trunk closed, and began to push the cart into its designated spot in the parking lot. “That’s a…big question, Bob.”
“We’ve got time,” Bob muttered.
You took in a deep sigh as you two split; he entered the passenger seat and you the driver’s seat. Putting the key into the ignition, you turned it, your car humming to life. “I–” you looked down at your gloved hands. You had already told Bob more in a few hours than you had managed to spit out to Bucky in months. There was something about him that made you want to talk. Maybe it’s because you knew he’d understand, or that maybe he’d listen to you and not just hear your words. Whatever the reason, you began to speak just as the radio began to play a 90s rock song quietly in the background. “In the vault, I guess I made a promise to myself that I’d make sure you made it out. Told myself if I got you out, safe and sound, maybe I was what my dad thought I could be–a hero. And when you took off, drawing attention away from us so we could escape, I ran after you.”
“But you are a hero,” Bob said. “At least, I think you are.”
You smiled at Bob’s words. “Thanks, Bob.” You turned your attention away from him and to the road. You didn’t feel like now was the time to drop any more stories of your past. Instead, you cranked up the volume, allowing the music to fill the air.
Before you knew it, you had returned to your place, groceries unloaded and covering the countertop. Slowly, you began to unpack, placing everything in its place. Bob was kind enough to deliver the change of clothes and tooth brushes to their respective owners while you got dinner started. Yelena had woken up first, quickly showering before sauntering into the kitchen to peer over your shoulder, peering at the pot of boiling water.
“You’re making…?” Yelena asked, her accent seemingly thicker with sleep. You glanced over at her. Droplets of water trickled off her hair and onto the new shirt you had gotten her. It was a light grey with cute doodles of puppies on them.
“Pasta.”
“Pasta.” She repeated your words, slightly shaking her head back and forth like a bobblehead. “Just Pasta? No special sauce or–”
“Just pasta.”
“Alright, no,” Yelena stated, snatching the wooden spoon from your hand. “There is no ‘just pasta’. That is so wrong. Sit back, I’ll make dinner. ‘Just pasta,’ she grumbled, the words like it was a slur. Too tired, you stepped away from the stove, allowing Yelena full control of the cooking process. “What else did you get from the store?” You shrugged. “Please tell me you got some vegetables. Some meat?” You pointed over to a brown paper bag on the counter. Yelena skipped towards the bags, pulling out what she wanted. She gave you an approving look before asking you where everything in your kitchen was located. But before you could answer, she cut you off. “Never mind, I’ll find it. Just go to sleep and rid yourself of those…” She used her finger to draw tiny circles around your eyes. “Raccoon eyes. A bit too emo if you ask me.”
“They’re not that bad.”
Yelena smirked at your defensive reaction. “They’re bad. So bad. Bob, tell Stark how bad her eye bags are.”
You whirled around to find Bob sneaking back into the kitchen. His eyes widened, hovering over your dark circles. He peered over at Yelena, who was waiting for his agreement. “I–You do look tired,” Bob replied.
Quickly, you brought your hands to cover your eyes. “Alright, I got it. I’ll go sleep,” You turned to Yelena. “Just don’t burn my house down.”
“No promises,” Yelena smiled, shooing you out of the kitchen and up the stairs.
You weren’t sure how long you had been sleeping. Once your head hit the soft plush of your pillow, your eyes closed, welcoming in well-deserved rest. Your lullaby was the loud rumbling snores that escaped through the wall you shared with the guest room, where Alexei and John were sleeping. You doubted John Walker was the kind of man who snored. Instead, you selected Alexei as the source of the thunderous noise. Any other day, the snoring would put you off sleep, yet the exhaustion that ached deep from within your bones overcame you. You didn’t even manage to pull your comforter over your body before falling asleep. It was a decision you regretted upon waking up. A chill crept up your body as Yelena shook you awake. Your eyes peered open. You groaned, of course, everyone was now occupying your room.
“Whatisit?” You mumbled, your words slurring together.
“Stark,” Yelena called out to you in your slumber. “It’s Valentina. She wants to talk.”
You were wide awake now.

Call It What You Want Pt.3
Pt.1 Pt.2 Pt.4 Pt.5 Pt.6
Summary: You get together with your friends to catch up on life and they're skeptical about what you're doing with Regina. A house party at Shane Oman's house gives Regina the chance to prove them wrong
Pairings: Regina George x Gender Neutral/Fem Reader
Warnings: internalized homophobia, underage drinking, drug use (there's some coke involved, but nothing too crazy I promise)
Notes: Hi! Chapter 3 and I'm just having so much fun with these. Listen, I know there's another party, but it's college. I'm keeping it realistic lol but also, next chapter will be a small time jump and they'll get more well established. Just trying to have some fun and build it up and see how things are shifting I guess?? Anyway, I really hope you like this chapter as well and thank you all for taking the time to read. Also, slight mention of drug use, but just a little dabble. But TW just in case. But I kept it not super crazy and kinda light for that reason
///
You were at your desk with your headphones on, doing your best attempt to do the readings for one of your classes that was due tomorrow. You always had a tendency to wait until the last minute for things, citing the excuse that working under pressure helps you think better. College may be testing the limits of that theory, but so far you haven't failed anything horrendously. It's only been a month since classes started though so there's still time.
Two arms wrapped around you from behind, caressing your chest and collarbone. You shot forward in your seat, ripping your headphones off your head and whipping your chair around to confront your roommate for majorly crossing a fucking boundary when you were met with a laughing Regina instead.
"Chill out, it's just me. Your roommate let me in before they left."
You stared up at her waiting for your heart to calm down. Though, staring at her wasn't doing you much good cause now it was just beating faster in a whole different way.
She was dressed up, her oversized designer purse that she uses for her backpack was sitting by your doorway so you know she must have stopped here right after class.
Something about that makes you feel all warm and giddy inside.
You also try not to think about the fact that you haven't seen her in like almost two weeks though.
"What brings you by?" You leaned forward, resting your forehead against her stomach and closing your eyes when her hands find their way to your scalp, massaging softly.
"I wanted to see you. I've just been busy with classes and soccer stuff lately." She gave your hair a tug so you would tilt your head back and look at her.
"When's your first game?" You questioned, your hands finding the backs of her thighs because that's what was within your reach and you almost felt like if you weren't touching her right now, you would implode.
"We've already had like three games."
"Oh." You said, your eyebrows furrowed. The hands on the back of her thighs faltered slightly and you didn't realize how much you wanted to be present at one of her games until you basically found out you were probably never going to be invited.
"Why the face?" She frowned, rubbing her thumb between your eyebrows to essentially try to get you to fix your face.
"Can I come see you play?"
"Uh," her voice was a touch higher than normal and you knew whatever was about to fly out of her mouth was either going to be a lie or something you probably didn't want to hear.
"Don't worry about it." You shook your head and gave her a tight lipped smile, leaning back in your chair.
"Stop, don't be like that." She straddled your lap and you tightened your grip on the back of her thighs because the last thing you needed was for her to fall. "I just can't have any distractions while I'm there."
"No, yeah. That makes sense." You agreed for the sake of moving past this conversation, but you also weren't really looking at her either. She gripped your face with both her hands, forcing you to look at her.
"Stop, Y/N." Her tone sounded less playful and you knew you just needed to let it the fuck go. You nodded and she squeezed your cheeks, pushing your lips out and planting a kiss on your lips. You quickly caught her lips for a second kiss before she could pull away and you could feel her smile against your lips.
She slid her hands down and cupped your neck, deepening the kiss. You could feel her rubbing her thumbs along your jawline and having Regina George sitting on your lap kissing you has to be what heaven feels like.
"I have to finish my homework." You mumbled against hers lips, pulling her closer to you by the backs of her thighs. She responds by grinding down into you, shaking her head no. You gasped when her hips moved against you again and she wasted no time slipping her tongue into your mouth.
"Fuck your homework." She said before bringing you in for another heated kiss.
It was tempting. God, it was so fucking tempting. The way she was grinding against you was making your brain short circuit so you know trying to get anything done would be impossible.
"Stay here with me and hangout." You pulled away from the kiss to look at her, pushing some stray hairs from her face. "Ren will be gone for a while. It'll just be us. I can order pizza, too."
"Ugh, I guess I could do some homework, too." She said begrudgingly.
"You probably should if you want to keep playing soccer."
"You probably should if you want to keep playing soccer." She mocked, rolling her eyes at you.
But the fact that she had her arms draped over your shoulder and had been twirling the hairs at the back of your neck around her finger really made you feel like she was not as upset about spending time with you as she was trying to let on.
"What kind of pizza do you want, beautiful?" You sneak in one more quick kiss because you just couldn't help it.
"Would you judge me if I just said cheese?"
"Never."
You both just stared at each other in silence for a few moments. One of Regina's hands moved to cup your cheek, her thumb swiping against your cheekbone. She leaned in and pressed a soft, slow kiss against your lips.
"I'm gonna change and get everything I need from my room. I'll be back." She gave you one more quick kiss before getting off your lap and you felt almost desperate the way you tried to keep your hands on her until she walked out of reach. So desperate that even having your fingertips on her felt better than nothing.
She took her keys from her bag and left it sitting against your wall. There was no question about whether or not she was coming back. When she closed the door behind her you hopped out of your desk chair and to to work on straightening up your room.
You fixed your bed, moved some clothes out of the way that were in the way. You had this bean-bag lounge chair thing that your mom got you and you pulled it out from the little space between the wall and your dresser where you shoved it because it took up way too much room to keep out daily.
You plopped onto the chair and called to order a large cheese pizza, opting to order from a nicer place instead of Dominos since Regina would be joining you. You got a soda for yourself and a sparkling water for Regina and added two cannolis for dessert.
Regina knocked on your door about twenty minutes later. She was dressed in comfy sweats and a crew neck, carrying a few books and her laptop and charger.
You smiled and stepped aside to let her in.
"Sooo, I have a paper to write that's due tonight that I forgot about. Where can I plug this in?"
"You can take my desk. Let me see." You looked at her charger and nodded. "We have the same one, just use mine and plug your computer in. I only have to do some reading and annotating tonight." You carefully took her charger from her and set it on her bag.
She set all her items on your desk and started to carefully move your stuff to the side, making sure to bookmark the page you were on and to put your laptop to sleep properly before closing it.
You grabbed everything she set aside and set in on your bed, grabbing on the book you needed, your pen, and a highlighter. You took everything to the beanbag chair that was situated slightly behind your desk.
"You're so far away." She commented, turning in your chair to face you with a small pout.
You chuckled and grabbed the back of the chair, dragging it to the small space between your desk and your bed and setting it there. You picked up your book and your pens and plopped down. Regina nodded in approval and turned to her computer.
After twenty minutes of straight reading your eyes needed a break. You closed your book and stretched, looking up at Regina to see her texting. Her computer screen split between an empty google doc and the school portal that actually signed her out for inactivity.
"Have you even started?" Nudging her leg with your foot.
"Hmm?" She hummed, waiting until whatever text she was working on was sent before looking up at you.
"Your paper."
"I will. Relax." She rolled her eyes and made a face at you before turning away. Which actually kind of pissed you off a little.
"Fine. Don't come crawling to me for any fucking help then." You adjusted yourself in the beanbag chair, opening your book again and continuing to read.
You could hear Regina typing every once in a while, but when you would look up you would see her doing online shopping or pretty much anything that wasn't homework. You continued to read for almost another thirty minutes until you got a call from the pizza delivery person that they were at the front desk of your dorm.
"Did you pay? Let me pay for it." She stood up, helping you off the beanbag first before attempting to go to her bag.
You pulled her back by her wrist and pulled her into you, wrapping your other arm around her waist.
"I've got it. Don't worry about." You kissed her quickly and patted her lower back before releasing her. "Get the tv remote off Ren's desk and pick something for us to watch while we eat. I'll be right back, babe."
You grabbed your keys and slipped on your shoes so you could head downstairs.
You returned a few minutes later with the box of pizza and the bag with your drinks and dessert.
Regina had cleared off space on multiple surfaces to make room for the food and for you both to eat. She was waiting for you patiently on your bed, laying comfortably against your pillows while scrolling through the streaming app of her choice.
You set the pizza down and got everything situated. Pulling out paper plates and napkins then making plates for the both you. Regina held both your plates while you pulled out the drinks and opened them.
"You got me a drink!" She said excitedly when she saw you pop open her sparking water.
"Yeah, baby!" You set the drinks on the edge of your desk and slid in to bed next to her, taking the outside once again.
You settled on watching Schitts Creek while you ate, having to talk her out of a Real Housewives show and reminding her that she was the one we with a paper due tonight.
You watched one episode while you ate and you watched a second one to 'let your food digest', both of you settling further into your bed. Regina had her head on your chest, rubbing the part of your arm you had wrapped around her that she could reach.
Your biggest mistake was letting her convince you to put on more episode for good measure. Actually, no. Letting her pull a blanket over the both of you was the mistake.
She was out within the first five minutes of the third episode, though your fingertips rubbing her scalp weren't really helping her stay awake.
You gave her until 8:30 before turning off the show and waking her up gently. You kissed the top of her head, calling her name after every kiss until her eyes fluttered open then back closed. She buried herself deeper into your embrace.
You found her cheek and kissed it repeatedly and obnoxiously until she got annoyed enough to wake up. It was a short nap, but you can tell it was a good one just based off the redness in her face from both how she was laying and how warm and comfortable she was.
You pushed hair from her face and handed her her drink, giving her just a few minutes to fully wake up on her own without being rushed.
When Regina was fully awake, you both made your way back to your designated homework spots. You sat more comfortably this time, your legs stretched out with your feet resting on Regina's lap. Something she had actually encouraged you to do which surprised you a little.
You had no complaints about it though. Since her deadline was creeping up on her she was actually doing her work, but whenever she would pause to read something or think about what she wanted to type out next, her hands would find their way to her lap and trace patterns on your shins and ankles to help her think.
She got her paper submitted about five minutes before the deadline. Did she almost have a few mental breakdowns? Yes. Was she cursing out her professor? Also yes. But as soon as it was submitted you could tell she was visibly relieved she got it done.
"When can I see you again?" You asked her, handing her her bag as well as a small ziplock of pizza.
"Tomorrow?"
"I can't tomorrow." You shook your head. "I'm gonna be seeing Ava and Isaac tomorrow."
"Who?" She raised her eyebrow.
"My friends? From North Shore? We are gonna meet up after classes tomorrow."
"Oh."
"What? What's wrong?" You asked, immediately detecting a shift in her mood.
"You're not gonna say anything, right?"
You swallowed the lump in your throat. You were obviously hurt that she didn't want anyone knowing, but also like if she wasn't ready she wasn't ready.
"Yeah, of course. Don't worry about it." You gave her a reassuring smile and despite the night you had together, she left without kissing you goodbye.
---
You met Isaac and Ava at a burger place near your campus that they had been wanting to check out. They both went to a different university in the city so it was nice that getting together wasn't impossible because of distance.
It was just impossible because of life.
You all greeted each other excitedly and ordered your food before getting down to the nitty gritty of your catch up.
Isaac had an STI scare and told you he finally got himself put on PrEP after you had been begging him since the school year started. His parents are also filing for divorce since he and his siblings are all 18 and over which he is actually pretty thankful about cause he was sick of them together. You and Ava were shown a multitude of different Grindr profiles of the guys he's been with, offering praises for the good ones and some reality checks for the questionable folks.
Ava hasn't been too involved in the dating scene. She has begun dabbling in some drugs that were a little heftier than what was usually provided at the house parties thrown by her brother. She did tell you that if you ever hear her mention meth or heroin, that y'all had permission to get her ass to rehab. But right now, it wasn't that serious.
You definitely made them share their locations with you indefinitely though.
"So, Y/N, drop the dirty details. What's been going on with you?" Isaac asked, taking a sip of his soda.
"I've been seeing someone. Maybe? Kind of?" You felt yourself blushing just thinking of Regina.
"What do you mean maybe, kind of?" Ava jumped in defensively. It was her and Isaac's turn to play the concerned friend role with you. "Do you have a picture?"
"I do, but she's not out yet."
"What does that matter we don't know he-oh, we fucking know her don't we? From North Shore?" You nodded and Isaac smacked the table. "At your school??" You nodded again and you could see him thinking, going through the list of everyone in your class that he knew of that went to your school. Which, was not a lot. "I can only think of like five people and two of them are boys." He held up three fingers, putting them down as he went through them. "Lupe Campos, Amira Harris, and Regina George." He put his three fingers back up and wiggled them.
You shifted ever so slightly when he said Regina's name and you and Ava made eye contact. She narrowed her eyes at you and you know you've possibly been found out.
"She doesn't want to be out. I'm not-I'm not confirming anything." You managed to stutter out.
"Shane is having a party tomorrow. My parents are out of town. He invited a bunch of high school people cause you know, he def peaked in high school and can't let that shit go. Are you coming?"
The notorious Shane Oman is Ava's twin brother. Two complete different personalities (almost), but unsurprisingly they're both pretty close to each other since they're twins. Apparently he had been struggling with life lately since graduation so this party is apparently his desperate attempt at finding purpose and popularity again.
"Yeah, I'm down. Could be fun." You shrugged.
"I heard he invited Regina and she will also be going."
Okay, well, see that you didn't know.
"Good for her." You nodded, playing with your fries before pushing your plate away.
"She didn't tell you?"
"Why would she?" Isaac interrupted before you could respond. Neither you or Ava spoke, but the eye contact between the two of you was enough for Isaac to finally connect the dots. He gasped before collecting himself. "Seriously? Regina George?" He said her name barely above a whisper, being conscious of the fact that you said she wasn't out yet.
You didn't tell them, technically.
"She's actually really great and just misunderstood."
"You could make the same argument about polar bears or crocodiles." Ava argued, pushing her hair behind her ear. "You don't think that her coming to her exe's house party and not saying anything to you is, I don't know, suspicious?"
"You never fall for the straight girl." Isaac piped in and Ava snapped in agreement.
"She's just figuring herself out." You defended.
"At your expense, babe! Come on! You know better."
"It's so different when it's only us. She's just scared." Ava gave you a look that could only best be described as pity and it didn't make you feel great.
"I get you, you know I do." Isaac reached across the table and grabbed your hand to give it a reassuring squeeze. "Just be careful."
"No, yeah. I know. I am."
---
You took the Metra to Evanston early Saturday afternoon, bringing a bag with an outfit or two with you and deciding to stop by and visit your dad, step mom, and little siblings.
They all greeted you excitedly and you spent the afternoon playing with your siblings, two year old Levi and 9-month old Zoe. It gave your dad and step mom some time to themselves and it gave you time with your siblings, something you both appreciated.
You started getting ready to go around 7pm. Levi hung out with you until his bed time and when your dad came him to pick him up off your bed, he gave you the speech about being careful, to call him at anytime if you needed a ride, not to drive drunk or get in the car with anyone that has been drinking or doing drugs. Pretty much just covering all his basic before releasing you into the wild.
Isaac picked you up around 9:30pm and when you got there the house was already packed a vibrating. Definitely not to the capacity it used to be since it's a random weekend in the middle of the semester, but still pretty full nonetheless. Regina's pink jeep was parked in the driveway. She must have had the same idea as you and came to Evanston early to see her family.
The fact that she was parked in the driveway and not on the side street or the front lawn made you want to throw the fuck up.
You did particularly enjoy the fact that, as far as you knew, Regina did not know you were coming. You felt like you had the upper hand. You put extra effort into your outfit and your hair. You didn't expect her to talk to you tonight or even acknowledge you if she saw you tonight. But that didn't mean you couldn't make it difficult for her not to.
You walked into the party and past a bunch of people who have never bat an eyelash at your existence in high school. You pushed past the drunk, high, sweaty party goers with Isaac clutching your jacket and guided him through the crowed to the kitchen.
Regina was in that area, drink in hand, talking to Shane, Gretchen, and Karen. When she saw you it was like she saw a ghost. You could tell she didn't expect to see you there and that it threw her off.
You were at the counter where all the drinks were laid out, debating between a bright blue drink and a bright green one. Both looked equally questionable. You felt a presence beside you and you knew it was Regina because you could smell her perfume.
"What are you doing here?" She asked, filling up her own drink and not making any eye contact with you.
"Ava invited me. Shane's twin sister." You added for clarification.
"Shane's twin?" You turned to her to say something, but she looked at you briefly and could tell her comment annoyed you. "I'm kidding. I know he has a twin. I didn't realize your Ava and his Ava were the same." You just nodded, deciding to take a chance on the bright blue drink and putting your cup under the spigot of the cooler it was in and filling your cup.
"You look really pretty tonight." You told her before taking a sip of your drink. She blushed and pushed some hair behind her ear, topping off her own cup.
"So do you." She smiled and took a sip of her drink as well, still not turning to look in your direction.
Karen and Gretchen waved her over and Karen shouted for her to bring them more shots.
"I'm surprised you're talking with them." You made yourself look busy while she prepared their tequila shots.
"Shit is different when alcohol is involved. I miss them a lot sometimes."
"Need help?" You watched her finagle the three plastic shot glasses and the red solo cup in her grip.
"Got it." She moved past you, knocking into your shoulder and making your drink splash over slightly onto your hand.
How she prevented anything from spilling onto her was a fucking mystery.
You found Ava and Isaac in the garage with a few other people, passing around joints and bongs. You took a seat on one of the chairs Ava saved for you and she handed you a joint before your ass hit the seat.
You vibed in the garage for about two joints until Ava pulled out a small bag of coke. That cleared the room quite fast honestly. Only you, Isaac, and two other people stayed with Ava.
She offered it to everyone and Isaac refused immediately. You hesitated to say no and she smirked, asking you if you were interested. That she would make sure it was a small bump and you would be totally okay.
Sure, you had only been drinking and smoking weed prior.
You were too scared to snort it, Isaac calling you 'so real' for that. Instead you were taught how to rub it on your gums and how to let it sit under your tongue instead.
The first fifteen minutes after were great, although seeing your best friend who was like this innocent band nerd just a few months ago snort a line? That was not anything you would want to see again.
You were fine until Gretchen and Karen came in to the garage Regina-less. Something about that had you start to feel a little bit anxious.
They came in asking Ava some question about where something was and she questioned where her brother was and you were out of that room once you heard he was in his bedroom.
You felt anxious, like your heart was going to fly out of your chest. Also, weirdly enough, you felt like you could totally fight someone and win right now.
You made your way to Shane's room and saw the door closed. You turned the knob and it was locked.
"Fuck." You sighed, pressing your head against the door briefly before pulling away.
You dragged your feet down the hall to Ava's room, opening the door and shutting it quickly when you saw the room was already occupied. You made a mental note that you would hopefully remember to tell her to wash her sheets.
You were kinda feeling sick and you didn't want to go back downstairs so you walked to the very end of the long hallway by the window. It was quiet and secluded and you sat with your back against the wall so you could watch all these assholes at the party.
You weren't sure how long you had been sitting there, maybe ten minutes max. You thought it was starting to wear off, but seeing Regina coming down the hallway arguing with Ava, and Isaac hot on both of their heels, had you thinking you were hallucinating.
You leaned forward and the three of them rushed to you, Regina shoving past Ava to get to you first. You heard an 'ooop' escape from Isaac's mouth and you met his gaze with a smirk. He winked and gave you a nod.
Regina was on the floor, kneeling in front of you with your face cupped between your hands.
"Hey, are you okay? You've been missing for a fucking hour." She titled your head up to look at your eyes in the light.
"I've been up here the whole time."
"Well we asked around trying to find you, but got conflicting information. Turns out, people are fucking stupid." Ava jumped in and Regina whipped her head around to give her what you assume was the most foul look both her and Isaac had ever seen judging by their faces.
Clearly Regina and Ava have not been getting along. You squeezed your thighs together at Regina's protectiveness over you then raised an eyebrow at Isaac. He shook his head and gave you a look that told you you'd talking about it at some point later.
"I'm so sorry, guys. I had no idea. I didn't mean to scare you." You still sound a little dazed and confused, trying to figure out how that hour passed in ten minutes.
"What happened?" She asked softly, her hand under your chin and her eyes searching your face.
You thought it over, trying to remember why you even came up here in the first place. You looked around the area and your eyes bounced to Shane's bedroom door. You furrowed your eyebrows, trying to get your brain working again. Regina didn't come from Shane's bedroom. You have confirmation that she's actually been trying to find you for the last hour.
"I don't remember. It's nothing." Your eyes bounced between her face and Shane's door once more and she knew exactly what your thought process was.
She shook her head no and let her thumb brush over your bottom lip quickly when she was pulling her hands off your face. She stood up and helped you up.
"Do you want me to take you back to your dad's?" Isaac asked as soon as you were on your feet.
"What? No. I'm good. Should we get another drink or something?" The last thing you wanted to do was be more of a vibe killer than you already had been. Especially for Regina.
"Yeah! That's what I'm talking about, baby!" Ava exclaimed and gave you a high five. "Want some more?" Ava teased, giving you a playful nudge and you both laughed. She was teasing you, you knew that. Joke or not, Regina didn't like it and you could tell by the way her grip tightened on the back of your shirt. "Seriously though, you should go home. Your eyes are fucking crazy right now."
"Where's my phone?" You asked when you noticed your pockets were feeling a little light.
"I have it. Let's go." Regina tugged your shirt and nudged you forward. "I'll bring you home."
"Nobody has to bring me home. I will take an Uber or call my dad. I'm not ruining anyone's fun. I feel fine guys, honestly." You lied. You felt nauseous and dizzy. Your heart was also racing crazy fast and you aren't sure if it's from the coke or Regina's fingertips against your back. "Also, Ave, people were fucking on your bed. Before I forget."
"Ugh, what the fuck!" She stomped and busted into her room. It was empty now, but very clearly, uh, used. She abandoned you to take care of that mess and you honestly don't even blame her.
"I'm gonna take you. Let's go." She repeated, clearly eager to just get you the fuck out of there.
"I'm gonna walk out with y'all. This party just ain't it for me, honestly." He held his arm out for you and Regina nudged you toward him. You hooked your arm around his and he walked you down the stairs, Regina trailing not too far behind you. "Let me tell you something." He said when Regina was out of earshot after letting you know she was going to get her purse and say goodbye to people.
"Hmm?"
"I thought Regina was gonna beat Ava's ass, girl. She was pissed." He shoved past the last few people on the front porch and led you to Regina's car.
"Really, why?"
"Well, I ran after you trying to find you. You were like a fart in the wind. Just poof, gone. Could not find you. I swear I went upstairs and you were not there, granted, I didn't necessarily look down. I came to Ava to get her to help me find you. Mind you, at this point, Regina came in to look for Gretchen and Karen cause they were still in the garage fighting over some stupid shit with her. Regina came in and overheard I couldn't find you. Ava was dismissive at first, said you would be fine. Regina kept her cool, kept it together. But then," he rested you against her jeep. "But then she said 'it was just a little coke. They're fine.' Honey, if you didn't tell us y'all were sneaking around, she would've gave it away then and there."
"Get the fuck out. What did she do? Wait, shush she's coming." You readjusted yourself when you saw Regina approaching with her bag, a bottle of water, and her clunky keys in hand.
"Talking shit?" Was the first thing out of her mouth as soon as she got close enough, sending a smirk your way while she unlocked the car. "Thank you, Isaac." She said as he helped you get situated in the passenger seat.
"I don't even feel it anymore, guys. I really think I'm fine."
"Mmm mmm." He shook his head, reaching across you to hand Regina your seatbelt to click in. "You need some sunglasses or something you look scary."
"Goodnight, Isaac." You rolled your eyes and he pressed a kiss against your cheek. "Text me when you're home?"
"Of course. You, too, please. I'm calling you tomorrow, too. Night, Regina." He waved at you both before closing the door and making his way to his car.
You both watched in silence waiting for him to get into his car safely.
"You're gonna come to my house tonight." She stated, putting her car in drive and not really giving you an option. She pulled your phone out and handed it to you. "Text your dad. I'll bring you home in the morning."
You unlocked your phone to see a bunch of texts and calls from Isaac, Ava, and mostly Regina. You can tell at some point, they all found your phone or realized you didn't have it because the messages stopped around the same time.
The final message Regina had sent you on their quest to locate you, after a slew of semi annoyed ones, or about how it wasn't funny, or that she was actually worried, was simply just 'baby please'. You stared at the words for a minute, letting the words burn into your brain before you were pulled from your thoughts and asked you if you texted him.
"Oh, yeah. Yes." You shot him a quick message and he responded almost immediately. He must've have been awake watching tv or playing a video game, but he's always been a night owl like that. Especially on weekends. He told you to be safe and to call if you needed anything. "Are you sure it'll be okay that I'm there? I can go home. I really think I'll be okay."
"Stop."
"Okay, sorry." You settled into the seat, turning your knees away from her. You felt bad about ruining the party for her, ruining her night, making her feel like he has to bring you home with her and take of you.
You were probably overthinking and maybe still slightly paranoid, but it just wasn't a great feeling.
She clicked her tongue in annoyance and reached across your seat, grabbing your knee furtherest away from her and giving it a tug so they were back facing her direction. She kept her hand planted firmly on your knee until she pulled into the drive way of her mansion. Which, yeah, understandable.
She parked in what was probably an eight car garage and led you inside of the house. There was a light left on in the main stairway for her, but otherwise it seemed the rest of the house was asleep. When you tried taking your shoes off at the door so you weren't too loud, she told you everyone took their sleeping pills for the night and would be too knocked out to hear a damn thing.
She led you up to her room and closed the door behind her. Your eyes widened, taking in the space. It felt bigger than your mom's apartment.
"Here." She was smirking when she handed you a pair of clothes to wear for the night. A grey long sleeve t-shirt and a pair of pink sweatpants that had 'slut' written on the back.
"You think you're so cleverrrr."
"I do, actually. And funny. Plus, I think I deserve it for what you put me through."
"I want to lay down so bad I'm not even going to fight you on it." You wouldn't admit it aloud, but they did look comfortable.
"And I want a picture."
"Okay, don't push it." You gave her a pointed look. She laughed and kissed your lips once, then a second time. She let the second kiss linger a little longer, her hand resting on your cheek and her body melting into you.
"I'm gonna shower. I don't care what time it is, I'm taking advantage of my big shower before going back to school. Will you be okay?" She swiped her thumbs across your cheeks and you nodded.
"In that big ass bed? Yeah I'll be so good."
Regina left to the attached bath to take her shower and you changed your clothes. You folded your clothes and put them on her chair. You changed into the clothes she gave you and hummed at how comfortable they were.
You climbed into her bed and picked the side you thought would be correct based off how everything was situated. You layed on top of the covers and sighed when your head hit the pillow. The beds at the dorms sucked, but this bed was also comfier than any other bed you've been on.
You closed your eyes, listening to the sound of the water coming from Regina's bathroom. You heard her come out of the bathroom at some point. She was walking around the room, doing a bunch of things but you were too lazy to open your eyes and see what.
The bed dipped and you felt her slide into the space next to you. The smell of her floral body wash and shampoo flooding your sense.
Her lips pressed against your cheek and her hand found it's way up your shirt to rest on your stomach to trace patterns around your belly button. You smiled and squirmed a little cause it tickled. You felt her smile against your cheek and she pressed a quick kiss to your lips before pulling away.
"Hey." You mumbled in protest, cracking an eye open to see she was adjusting the towel for her hair.
She laughed at your impatience and got herself comfortable again, supporting her head with her hand to keep it off her pillows for now. Her other hand found its way to the waistband of your pants, twirling the drawstring.
"These look good on you. Pink is totally your color." You grunted and she laughed through her nose. "I definitely need to see the back in action though. Give me a little turn." She nudged your hip and you let out a loud laugh, turning on your stomach for her. "So gorg, babe!" She was laughing with you, her hand coming down to smack your ass cheek a few times, which sent you both into a fit of giggles.
She wrapped an arm around you and buried her face between your shoulder blades. You tugged her arm to pull her closer to you and laced your fingers together. She shifted behind you and the towel on her head went zooming across the room. You settled deeper into her chest and her grip around you tightened.
"Will you need a ride back to school tomorrow?"
"I was just gonna take the train back."
"Ew, no. I'll take you to get your stuff from your dad's and we can go together
"Cool, thank you." You nodded, feeling yourself start to fall asleep. Regina kissed the back of your head and began to pull away.
"I need to do my skin and hair routine. Get under the covers and go to sleep."
"S'fine." You mumbled, already too far gone and making no effort to move whatsoever.

the music was loud and obnoxious as you tried to speak to Jake. "i'm getting pretty bored!" you yelled over 'Party in the USA.' you and Jake had lost Tara and Johnnie a while ago, and you had been at the party for about 2 hours.
"yeah, we should go find Johnnie and Tara!" he mentioned. you nodded in agreement. Jakes arm snaked around your waist as he pulled you along with him.
trying to find Johnnie and Tara was a difficult feat. the house was big and there were many rooms. not to mention the kitchen and living room were huge. as you walked into the kitchen, you spotted Johnnie and Tara standing in a small circle of people. you pointed them out to Jake and began to walk over.
you tapped on Johnnies shoulder. "what are you guys doing?!"
he leaned back to speak into your ear. "truth or shot, i guess. Tara dragged me over because she wanted to join."
"you two should join!" Tara shouted.
you looked towards jake who was already looking at you. you shrugged, "why not?"
Johnnie and Tara squeezed the two of you into the circle. the man across from you got your attention. "you! h/c hair." you pointed at yourself and raised an eyebrow. he nodded. "i have a kinky question for you. have you ever been choked during sex?"
the question cause your face to heat up. you heard Jake let out a small giggle as his grip on your waist grew tighter. you and Jake had never had kinky sex, it was always super soft and vanilla. neither of you had ever entertained the idea of doing anything further than that.
"no, i haven't." truthfully, this game was rigged on your part. you were designated driver for that night, so you couldn't take a shot even if you wanted to. Jake ultimately decided to stay sober with you.
you asked some other person a question, which they took a shot for. you kept getting asked odd questions like, 'would you want to use handcuffs during sex?' (which you said maybe to,) and other questions in that realm. you noticed Jake getting more aroused by the second. the thought of Jake doing all these things to you made the ache between your legs grow. it was odd, you had never really thought about stuff like that.
you two were in the game for about 20 minutes before you both started getting sick of that, as well. the ache in Jakes pants along with your own was starting to become unbearable. you turned to Johnnie and Tara once more. "you guys ready to go home?"
They were both pretty drunk at that point and resisted before giving in. you knew as soon as you all got back to the house, Tara would crash on the couch and and Johnnie would fall asleep as soon as he hit his bed. you dragged the two of them outside with the help of Jake and threw them into the backseat. Jake climbed into the drivers seat (since it was his car, even though you were the designated driver,) and you climbed into the passenger seat.
Jakes hand gripped your thigh as one rested on the steering wheel. it started to climb dangerously close to your heat, which made you rub your thighs together. Jake held a small smirk on his face. the two in the back seat were distracted. Tara was yapping to Johnnie about something you blocked out. Jakes hand placement made your mind foggy with need.
by the time you were home, you were itching to get Jake into your shared bed. the two of you helped the drunk ones inside. just as you suspected, Tara knocked out on the couch and Johnnie crashed into bed, not even bothering closing his door fully. you basically dragged Jake up to your bedroom, which you didn't need to because Jake already knew.
as soon as you closed the door, Jakes lips were on yours. instead of the slow, desperate make out session you usually had, it was rough and needy. the way his lips clashed with yours in a needy manner turned you on even more. you clawed at his shirt, ripping it off and throwing it onto the floor.
he pulled your dress up to around your your waist. your bare ass was pressed against the cold door, sending chills down your spine. Jakes tongue easily slipped into your mouth, tangling with yours with passion. he picked you up and you wrapped your legs around his waist. his growing bulge pressed into your aching core. you moaned into his mouth, which fueled his desire further.
he brought you over to the bed, sitting down quickly. one of his hands found it's way into your panties. his fingers teased your clit and ran through your folds, collecting your slick. he pinched your clit, causing you to moan into his mouth once again. "fuck," he muttered against your lips, starting to unbuckle his pants. he ripped off his belt and jeans before pulling down your underwear.
he pulled your panties to the side and teased your entrance with his tip. "please, jakey." you grinned down onto his tip. making Jake let out a groan.
he gripped your hips and pulled you down onto his dick. you let out a moan as you sat down, taking his length fully. you began to gently bounce on his cock. "god, i love how fucking innocent you are." he groaned into your neck, biting down into your skin.
you let out a loud moan as his hands moved your hips faster. you rested your head in the crook of his neck as you took him harder than you had before. "you fuck me so fucking good," you moaned out.
his hand moved to your neck as you kept up the same pace. he gripped your throat gently, causing your moans to come out louder than before. they were raspy and dripping with need. "look at you, being such a slut for my dick." he hissed through his teeth. "you like it rough, don't you, ma?" his grip tightened.
your brain fog was prominent as you couldn't form any words. you nodded desperately as he pounded into your pussy. his hand moved from your neck to your hair, pulling your head back. he kissed and sucked dark marks into your neck. your moans and his grunts filled the room along with the smell of sex.
you were already so close, "fuck, Jake im-"
"close? i know, baby. i can tell." a smirk formed on his face as he pumped into you faster.
you writhed under his touch as he brought you closer to your climax. his hand gripped your neck again as he pulled you in for a kiss. his lips glided with yours as you came undone on his cock. your walls spasmed around him as he helped you ride out your climax. he kept ducking you roughly as he chased his own.
with one final thrust, Jake came inside of you. his cock softened inside of you before he pulled out. his cum dripped out of your pussy. he laid you back on the bed and grabbed the baby wiped from the side table. he cleaned you up, being very gentle with your sore cunt.
he peppered your body with kisses as he praise you on how well you did. "you took it so good baby,"
he collapsed on the bed next to you and pulled you close. he dragged the covers over the both of you. "we should do that more often," you smiled.

Flufftober | 10.14 |
Home Decor - Oscar Piastri
You and your high school sweetheart Oscar Piastri walked into the local home décor store, and the warm glow of autumn lights immediately sets the mood. The aisles are filled with everything from spooky Halloween skeletons to cozy fall wreaths. Oscar, looking casual in a McLaren hoodie and jeans, eyes the shelves with a mix of curiosity and amusement.
“Alright,” you say with a grin, “we need to find the perfect fall décor. None of that basic pumpkin spice stuff though. We’re going for style.”
Oscar nods seriously, but there’s a playful glint in his eye. “Right. So, no pumpkin-scented candles?”
You chuckle. “Well… maybe one.”
You grab a cart and begin wandering down the aisles. The first thing that catches Oscar’s eye is a giant inflatable ghost. He immediately lights up. “Can we get this?”
You laugh. “Where would we even put that? It’s huge!”
“I’ll find a spot. Maybe outside, near the entrance, to give everyone a proper scare.”
You shake your head but throw it in the cart anyway. “Alright, you win this one.”
Moving on, you spot a shelf filled with little decorative pumpkins. Oscar picks one up, examines it like he’s inspecting his F1 car before a race, and turns to you. “What do you think? Too basic?”
“It’s classic fall. We need at least one pumpkin. Balance out your ridiculous ghost.”
Oscar smirks. “Fine. But I’m in charge of picking the spooky stuff.”
The two of you continue down the aisle, Oscar grabbing a set of glow-in-the-dark skeleton hands while you pick out some fairy lights with little autumn leaves. You catch him looking at a cute black cat figure, and he tries to play it cool.
“You like it?” you tease.
He shrugs, pretending to be indifferent. “It’s alright, I guess.”
You toss it in the cart. “It’s coming home with us.”
Finally, you end up at the candle section. The smell of cinnamon, apple cider, and pumpkin spice fills the air. Oscar wrinkles his nose at one overly sweet-scented candle.
“No way,” he says, setting it back down. “That’s too much.”
You grab a more subtle apple cinnamon candle and wave it under his nose. “Better?”
He nods, satisfied. “That one can stay.”
As you make your way to the checkout, the cart is filled with a mix of spooky and cozy – a perfect blend of your personalities. You glance at Oscar, and he gives you a playful grin.
“This is going to be the best-decorated place ever,” he says confidently.
You laugh. “Yeah, thanks to my pumpkins and your ridiculous inflatable ghost.”
Oscar leans in, pretending to whisper. “The ghost is going to be the star, admit it.”
You roll your eyes, but you can’t help but smile. “Maybe.”
As you both head out of the store, Oscar grabs your hand, swinging it lightly. “I think we nailed it,” he says, looking at the cart full of fall magic.
“Definitely,” you agree, already imagining the cozy, spooky vibes waiting for you at home.

sixteen shades of blue


prologue - a barely blue
professor!Dieter x reader
words: 800~
warnings/tags: no major warnings for this part. Reader is not a student. University admin stuff lol, write what you know and all that. Fantasizing about the hot professor who can't deal with basic admin tasks. drug use mention (Dieter, duh). Feelings. Hands. Unedited, unbeta'd, written on my phone I'm sorry for mistakes!
a/n: Happy birthday to my brainrot bestie @chronically-ghosted!!! this is a short little thing which hopefully will lead into a bigger thing one day but I know you have been waiting for him for so long so I'm introducing art history professor!Dieter today especially for you.
"Can you go check 16a?" Your boss calls over to you at your desk, "Looks like the register didn't go through"
You sigh to yourself but respond with a 'sure'.
16a is one of the smaller lecture halls on this side of campus; a quick job but not one you should be involved in, not that you'd ever complain about that - a people pleaser to your core, saying no to a work task felt like you might just die.
You stop short of the hall when you hear his voice, confident and excited, your heart skips a beat when you realise just who is teaching in 16a today.
Dieter had walked into your life when he joined the academic staff of the university a year ago. He was like a whirlwind and a calming breeze all at once, nothing like the stuffy, stuck up professors you usually worked with (worked for, in their minds). Dieter was everything they weren't.
You slip in quietly, and don't make yourself known straight away. He's talking about Cezanne - a particular passion of his - and you enjoy the way his hands move as he speaks, bringing the words to life, giving them a flow and a flourish. One of the rings on his fingers glints in a ray of light, drawing more attention to his hands.
You've thought about those hands a lot. His use of them to express himself. How he moves them in a pattern on any available surface when he's lost in thought. The smooth strokes they help him make on a canvas. He'd set up in one of the campus studios outside of hours to work on his own paintings, and you'd stumbled in following the smell of weed when working late one day. You promised to keep his secret safe if he'd let you watch him paint. It was mesmerising to see him work, to see his talent. He's a wonderful, albiet unconventiional professor, but it's clear his real love lies in making art himself.
You'd thought about his hands in other ways too, ways that made things inside you flutter and heat up. How his touch would feel, fingers dancing on your skin, tracing art on you, making you his masterpiece.
You have to shake the thoughts from your head. It's not appropriate, you're at work. Finally you clear your throat and he turns, a smile immediately lighting up his face, brown eyes deep and excited as he looks you up and down without much subtlty.
"Give me a moment" He says to the class, holding up a finger and barely turning his gaze from you, "Examine that reduction of natural form, and then we'll discuss it"
"Hey" You say quietly, stepping forward. He leans into you, a gesture that feels exceedingly intimate despite the students sat behind you.
"I was thinking about you this morning" Dieter says with what feels like a shyness, an admission, "My muse" he adds, and your heart does a little flutter. He'd been calling you that since you inadvertently helped inspire him on a new work one evening.
"But I'm guessing you're here because i've messed something up, right? Is it the stupid registers again" He sighs dramatically and you can't help but giggle.
"I'm afraid so" You nod and step towards his laptop.
"I hate these fucking things" He groans as he watches you access the system and press a few buttons, he's technology averse and you do feel for him in that sense, but you appreciate that he doesn't complain about your systems and processes that make your job easier.
"Remind me to show you how to use this when you're not teaching, okay?" You mutter, entering some final data and stepping back to the door.
"Thanks. I don't know how this place would even function without you..."
You look away, embarrased at the compliment. He's always telling you how much you help him, how good you are at your job, but it never gets easier hearing praise like that. Especially when you'd like to hear different praise coming out of that mouth, plush lips whispering against your ear while he...
You cut the thought off quick and scurry to open the door, but before you can leave he turns back to you and grabs your hand with a gentle hold. Not entirely appropriate infront of a class full of students but you can't pretend it doesn't thrill you. His large hand is warm, the slight press of his rings is definitely not unpleasant. You’re about to get lost in your horny imagination before he speaks again.
"I'll be in the studio later, come by and see the new piece?" He draws right in, so close you feel his breath, speaking in a near whisper. His eyes are almost pleading, wide and waiting and you could dive into their depths.
You squeeze his hand a little and let an easy smile play on your lips. Youd' hoped he'd ask, it had been a while since you'd seen his work, had him all to yourself... it sounds like the perfect evening to you.
"Nowhere I'd rather be"
