wish I was capable of articulating why I've been nonstop head in my hands about YJTV Bart and Jaime the last week or so but honestly I've got nothing. they're a lot and I dunno how to explain it. very important to me though
#give me like another week maybe idk i need to figure out why exactly I'm so emotional over them#it's like... jaime's a normal kid until he's Not and lbr he gets less normal by the day#and then bam there's suddenly a kid from the literal future who came back JUST FOR HIM#like... WILD#and bart? 100% did not plan to imprint on the guy he's trying to keep from going evil#and you can TELL but you can also tell he doesn't actually mind. jaime is nice to him and doesn't mind being attached at the hip#and that's enough for bart. they become besties in like 0.5 seconds and it's precious actually#like... idk man the fact that their friendship is actually a core detail in the whole yknow saving the world thing???#bc if bart HADN'T gotten to friendly would things have gone differently?? if jaime was less open to said friendship??#if they weren't both so willing to be open with each other and then stick together??? how much longer would it have taken#for the rest of the team to find out about the reach's control of the scarab? how much less prepared would jaime have been#for basically everything that happens all season??#like yeah he gets all anxious about practically having a prophecy over his head but at the same time the fact that bart is even THERE#is proof that said ''prophecy'' isn't set in stone.#bart sticks real close to jaime both bc 1) jaime is his mission objective as it were) and also 2) he's kinda a lonely kid#and he and jaime have a connection from the get-go bc of the time travel thing#and has bart ever really had friends his own age before???#lowkey it's almost like they're each other's security blanket of a person#not in a weird codependent way just in a friends who relax a bit more when they're together than with anyone else#bc bart can (theoretically) help and/or stop jaime if his scarab takes over which = success and safety for him (and everyone else)#and jaime KNOWS that and knows bart is prepared for the eventuality which also puts him a bit more at ease#idk I'm just throwing stones at the water and hoping they skip but OUGH peak dynamic actually#Lu rambles#...slightly more unhingedly than normal maybe#yjtv#meta finding tag#for my tags#yeah idk just. many thoughts and feels :)

UPDATE (APRIL 2024): Because The Spirealm is now available through official channels again (Viki, Viu, iQiyi maybe soon?) some of the below links no longer work. I'm leaving them here, but please support the show by watching it through the official websites if you can!
Hello besties,
I come bearing all the sources I can find on English subs for The Spirealm, the live-action adaptation of the danmei novel Kaleidoscope of Death because I need more people to freak out with me over this. A lot of people (me included) have been suffering through the sometimes-unintelligible MTL subs on dramacool, but now that some time has passed, some wonderful people out there have done some amazing fansubs and I thought I'd share some links that @naughtynanzhu and I have found.
Pick your poison:
This google drive contains all 78 episodes, 23 of which have English subtitles (as of 3/21/2024). New episodes are being added but slowly. Video quality up to 1080p. (Note: there are some cute English subbed bts videos at the bottom!) Credit to twitter users @mwsdrama and @xianguang0104 who I believe are the fans behind these fansubs. NOTE (Apr. 2024): This google drive now seems to have restricted access - see note at end of bullet three below
This google drive contains all 78 episodes, all of which have English subtitles. However the English subtitles overlap a little bit with the Chinese ones so it can be a little bit hard to read. Video quality up to 720p. NOTE (Apr. 2024): This google drive now also seems to have restricted access and may not work.
This google drive has all 78 episodes of English subtitles in the form of srt files. You can download them and play the video in your choice of player that allows you to load in srt files (VLC, KMPlayer, etc.). NOTE (Apr. 2024): There is a link at the top to the raw video files ("78 episodes Raw Files 1080") which you can use to access the video files that were originally available in the google drive above that is now restricted.
Retro_fiction on bilibili has English subtitles, but a VPN may be required depending on where you are. NOTE (Apr. 2024): Looks like these have been taken down as well
I can't vouch for the quality of the subtitles for all 78 episodes across all three links, but I scanned through a few episodes in each drive and they're all quite good as far as I can tell, and definitely a million times better than the MTL ones.
Personally, I would download the video files from the first link and the srt files from the third and play them in KMPlayer together for the video quality and lack of overlapping subtitles.
Thank you to the wonderful fansubbers out there who worked hard on these. Please share and enjoy!

This post is going to show you the EXACT moment that tear forms with indisputable evidence that consists of several screencaps, detail shots, and slowed down video proof, which will be at the very end.
The tear and I are getting married, her name is Trina and I love her.
Let's get right into it. Be prepared for uh. Very painful facial expressions! And tears (at the end).
We're going to look through the final fifteen chronologically with pit stops at important emotional points that I think would make sense to cause a tear.
As you can see, we go into this argument with mostly dry eyes, a little glistening here and there but those are NOT tears. Probably just the contacts plus the lack of blinking making his eyes a bit more moist than your usual pair. The tear will be obvious.
Tumblr media
Obvious disbelief when Aziraphale tells him about the Metatron's bullshit, yes, but Crowley soldiers on through.
Now a scene that I personally thought would be most likely to cause tears - "tell me you said no". However - his eyes stay dry! Both before and after Aziraphale's non-answer. No tears.
Tumblr media
The best spot to look at is his waterline, and as you can see it's free of any sad tears.
We have reached the "go off together" stage, Crowley is yelling, they're both emotionally perturbed, a very good foundation for tears. Yet when you look at his eyes during and right after, they're still dry!
Tumblr media
We are now right before Crowley says "you can't leave this bookshop" and when he does BOOM the tear is suddenly there!
Tumblr media Tumblr media
This is what our tear looks like, and we have a very narrow time frame during which it can appear. So it is time for the grand reveal because by now you're probably yelling at me "okay but WHEN does it show up??"
I will tell you. Or rather, I will show you first and then tell you what Aziraphale said right before that triggered it. Ready?
Tumblr media
There it is. Left - no tear. Right - tear. (no i will not make the trivago joke again i want to but i wont.)
Come with me! To heaven! I'll run it, -> no tear yet. It appears after the next part.
you can be my second in command THAT is what causes the tear to finally show up. Right as Aziraphale finishes his sentence you can watch as it appears.
As promised, here is the video evidence, slowed down by half and zoomed in on Crowley's face at the end.
Alright, have you seen enough tears? Good! Let's look at the emotional reason. Because your question is probably what is so special about that sentence that it tips Crowley over the edge?
That one sentence, that one "promise" Aziraphale makes him, destroys everything. All of it in one go.
It is not just about Aziraphale choosing heaven over him, it's not about him saying no to running away (Crowley probably saw that coming anyway). What Aziraphale does is he takes them, their us and eliminates it.
Not just is he telling Crowley that he's an evil demon tm who needs to be an angel to be worthy of staying in Aziraphale's life, but "second in command" takes that even further.
Not "ruling together" or "ruling side by side" or any variation of those. No, Aziraphale is telling him that they are not equal and never have been. That Crowley has always been inferior to him and always WILL BE even if he stops being a demon and does what Aziraphale wants.
This is why Crowley no longer things of them as an us after all of that. Aziraphale took every single meaning it had and inverted it, crushed it up, and then threw it away.
Yeah.
Crowley is telling him he is gay and in gay love with him. Aziraphale takes that and says "you can be my employee at gay conversion therapy which i will run #straight besties".
Crowley hears "second in command" and it is the last puzzle piece falling into place. It's the final straw and that is when we get the tear. Before that he was saying we can be together, be an us, just the two of us, you and me. He was referring to them as free equals who don't need heaven or hell, who are happy with everything the way it is. An Aziraphale who loves Crowley no matter what his former occupation might have been.
We could have been us. (I wanted us to be an us)
And Aziraphale's answer to that is there has never been an us and we never will be. i don't love you the way you love me.
Anyway, see y'all on my next angst post or in the tags. Have another devastating screencap to wrap this all up nicely 💚

i've seen figure skater sanji and hockey player zoro before. idk if its been explored but i'd love to put it out there:
hockey player sanji (specifically goalie bc he desperately wants to avoid being checked) and then pairs skater zoro.
pairs skater zoro's long time partner has been nami. though many people ship them together a Lot, they just know each other super well. Well enough to try dating and both of them realized they don't swing that way. in fact, it makes them a really good team. they fought long and hard to claim top spots in competitions because they portray a chemistry that's separate from the rest. plus zoro can carry nami like she weighs fucking nothing. so their lifts are so much more dynamic. they even have a whole next to impossible combination that they're trying to get the ISU to name after them officially.
sanji plays for the East Blue Straw Hats in the Grand Line Hockey League – a formidable rookie group that took down lots of big names in the preseason. they want to make it all the way to the postseason playoff finals but always seem to fall short. but theyre so determined. they reignited a lot of old sparks that were no longer there for old fans and brought in new and curious fans. sanji is the starter goalie and a damn good one at that. it makes sense bc goalies are often doing splits on the ice just to make a save. he's perfected the technique that utilizes just his legs to make saves that make the crowd go fuckin insane.
we have the usual "i booked the rink to practice before you did" trope but a little more spice. in actuality, sanji loves watching pairs skating competitions. his favorite pair rn is franky and robin (mostly for robin). and he adamantly does not want to admit to anyone that he watches zoro and nami's routines much more frequently. (and if anyone asks, he always says its bc of nami. its never just bc of nami.) and zoro's besties with luffy so he always watches their matches even if he barely understands the rules. and he definitely does not stare at a certain blond starter goalie most of the match thats fucking ridiculous
one day zoro and sanji are invited to do one of those comparison videos between hockey players and figure skaters. both get to laugh at the other even Attempting to do their sport. zoro frankly looks ridiculous in all of sanji's usual goalie get-up. and sanji couldn't land an euler to save his life. the video producer suggests they try a simple pairs skating routine. sanji is like "oh i couldn't do that–hEY WHAT THE FUCK MOSSHEAD PUT ME DOWN" because zoro lifted sanji and had him sat on his shoulder like it was normal.
zoro smirks, "you might be lighter than nami, actually. wanna be my new partner?"
sanji knees him in the stomach before skating away while blushing so hard he could melt the ice beneath him.

Tumblr media
It will be your anniversary this Wednesday and Yoongi surprised you with a trip to the Austrian alps. He rented out a cabin high up a mountain, which was only accessible by a narrow one lane path. He told you to pack warm and take your favourite books and then took you in his jeep. 
You and he haven’t left the cabin yet except for your second day where you drove down to the local supermarket to buy groceries for the week. You will be here for six nights. Yoongi cooks for you. He already announced that he will. You also take a lot of walks and built a snowman in front of your cabin. The afternoons you spend doing your own things. You like to read, while Yoongi likes making music on his laptop. Every now and then, one or the other would look up for a moment to catch a glimpse of the other person. Come dinner time and you find yourselves cooking together whilst chatting about the most random of things. 
Tonight’s dinner was authentic Carbonara with local eggs and bacon. It tasted wonderfully. You went for two portions because you couldn’t get enough. Yoongi was so happy, watching you enjoy the meal and feeling full just watching you. 
The latter has been occupying the bathroom for the last thirty minutes, but seems to finally be done. You are reading on the couch when the bathroom door opens. The scent of his shampoo instantly fills the room. 
“The bathroom's still toasty if you wanna go now", Yoongi says as he leaves the room. He is wearing his sleep pants, but no shirt, rubbing his hair dry with his towel.
You follow him with your eyes, feeling your heart flutter. He is so perfect. His arms tense and flex as he dries his hair, his chest stretches in the position and his tummy looks so soft. Your eyes linger on it for longer. He isn’t sucking it in anymore. 
In the beginning of your relationship, Yoongi always sucked in his stomach when he was shirtless in front of you. Years passed and the once conscious act turned into something subconscious, something his body did on reflex. For a few months now, you began to notice that he stopped doing it more and more. It has been four days since you came here and not once have you seen him suck in his stomach. 
“What?” Yoongi asks as he sits down on a chair in front of the floor mirror, “why are you looking at me?” 
“It’s nothing. I don’t wanna say it yet”, you say and get up to use the bathroom as well.
“What do you mean?” he asks and you can watch how his stomach instinctively tenses up. 
“No, it’s nothing bad. You’re just so handsome. I was swooning over you again”, you assure him and give him a back hug. One kiss to his cheek. Another to his neck. The last on top his shoulder. 
Yoongi looks at you with half-lidded eyes. 
“I’m taking a shower now. Okay?” you ask as you give his shoulders a gentle massage. 
“Yeah, okay.” 
“My handsome prince”, you say and snicker when this makes him lower his eyes bashfully.
You close the door, but don’t lock it. You are in the midst of stepping inside the shower when Yoongi knocks.
“Yes?” 
“Can I come in?”
“Sure.”
The door opens. Yoongi doesn’t look at you on purpose. 
“Sorry, I forgot my brush”, he says and fetches it from the counter. He waves it in the air, “found it.”
And with that, he leaves again, keeping his head lowered in respect. You snicker to yourself. He is such a sweetheart. You wouldn’t have minded if he looked at you, but he still made sure not to be disrespectful. It is the same with any kind of touch which could be interpreted sexually. He could kiss you, grope you, fuck you and ruin you without asking if he wanted to, but would he do so? Of course not. He only touches you when he knows you want it, just as he only looks when he knows you want it. He makes you feel so important and loved with it. You aren’t a piece of meat to objectify for him, a pretty thing to perform at all times. You are his most precious person, his favourite human and the treasure he will only worship if you allow him. Oh it feels so good to be with someone who allows you to be so disgustingly human. 
Which makes the fact that he started relaxing his stomach in your presence all the more precious. He is finally allowing himself to be so disgustingly human in your presence. 
You love this man so much.
Tumblr media
Yoongi is wearing the full pyjama set once you leave the bathroom. His hair is dry and fluffy. His bangs hang into his face, making him appear so much younger.
He lifts his eyes and lowers them instantly when he realises that you were naked. 
“It’s okay to look, I don’t mind” you assure him and leave for the bedroom, “I forgot my pjs. Silly me.”
You return soon. You and he are matching. You had the idea and Yoongi instantly took the soft pyjamas you offered. Even your fluffy socks are matching.
“Did you brush your teeth yet?” he asks you.
“Not yet. Why?” 
“Do you want hot chocolate?” 
“Oh yes”, you gasp with sparkly eyes.
“Okay”, he says and gets up from the couch to hurry to the kitchen. 
You in the meantime get cozy on the couch, bundling up in a woollen blanket.
The cabin is made up of four rooms. The small entrance area where one can store their outside clothes and skiing equipment if needed. Then a sturdy door separates it from the living room and kitchen area, keeping the chill air out that way. 
At the other end of the living space, were two doors next to each other. One for the bathroom and the other for the bedroom. A metal wood burner in the corner closest to the bedroom door keeps the small cabin warm and in the corner closest to the entrance way door, a corner bench with a dining table and three chairs was located. Everything was made out of wood, the floors, the walls and most furniture. It looked traditional and cozy. 
The couch was very obviously from Ikea though. It didn’t feel out of place. 
You turn on the cozy sofa, resting your chin on the edge of the backrest so you could watch Yoongi make hot cocoa.
He makes it on the stove with fresh, local milk and actual chocolate. Apparently Austria has this very famous chocolatier, who also makes chocolate especially for hot cocoas. You and Yoongi picked out a few flavours from the store, which piqued your interests.
Yoongi walks to you with his hands balled into fists. He presents them to you.
“Do I gotta pick?” you ask.
He nods his head.
“What are the flavours?” 
“Banana milk chocolate or cinnamon nougat.”
“Ooh okay uhm”, you tap on his left hand. 
He turns it and opens it, revealing the small chocolate bar. It looks tiny in his big hand.
“Nice, cinnamon nougat”, you say.
“Mhm, good choice”, he says and turns to strut back to the stove. 
He stirs in the chocolate, humming to himself as he does. You keep watching him, kicking your feet giddily. When will the limit of your love for him be reached? You always think that your heart can’t take anymore, but then it grows and grows and grows and it never gets too much. 
Yoongi divides the cocoa into two mugs, giving you more than himself. He fills the pot with some water so it would be easier to clean later and then struts back to you.
You stretch out your hands so he can give it to you over the backrest.
“Careful, it’s really hot.”
“I know. Uh, ah.”
“I told you it's hot”, he whines and tugs the mug away from you again.
“I got it now”, you say and pull your shirt sleeves over your hands.
“Careful.”
“I got it. See? Just had to use my brain.”
He snorts and chuckles, rounding the couch so he could sit down next to you.
“Thank you so much for this. It’ll warm me up in no time.”
"Are you cold? I'll get more wood. And a second blanket”, Yoongi babbles and tries to get up. 
You, however, keep him down by laying your legs over his lap, “I’m cozy. Don’t worry.”
“Really?”
“Yes, really. Thank you.”
“Okay, yeah. Just tell me if you change your mind.” 
“I will, my love”, you speak softly as your eyes wander over his features adoringly. You are resting back, keeping the hot cocoa on your tummy for now so it could cool down a little. 
Yoongi is sitting up, fumbling with the edge of the mug by tracing it mindlessly. He glances at you and looks away. His cheeks gain colour. 
You notice and give his tummy a little nudge with your toes.
He glances again. You give him a smile. He barely retorts it because then he is looking away bashfully again.
He takes a breath in the distinct way he always does when he wants to talk. Nothing comes. He is hesitating. 
“What do you wanna say?” you ask him.
“How did you know that I wanted to say something?” he gasps, looking at you with widened eyes.
“Just the way you breathed.”
“Ah”, he flusters, “am I that predictable?”
“No, it’s just that we’re spending so much time with each other.”
“I guess, yeah.” 
“What did you wanna say?”
“Don’t laugh at me.”
“I won’t laugh, promise.”
“What did you mean by what you said earlier?”
“What did I say again?”
“That you didn’t wanna say it yet”, he says and touches the side of his neck in self soothing, “it made me feel insecure”, he adds in a whisper.
“It did? No Yoongi, I’m sorry”, you gasp and sit up to close in on him. Your legs are still thrown over his lap. The mug rests on your thighs for now, “I’m sorry that it made you feel this way. It was something totally positive, but I just didn’t wanna say it yet in order not to ruin it.” 
“What do you mean? I don’t know what to make of this.”
“Okay so, uhm, please don’t take it to heart, but I noticed that you stopped sucking in your tummy when you’re shirtless with me.”
“My tummy?” he touches it, “I’m sucking in my stomach?”
“Not anymore. You did so for the longest time and I understand why you did it, but since a few months ago, you stopped doing it and I guess I just looked at you because I thought that you were so beautiful this way.” 
“Oh. Uhm”, he lowers his head shyly, “okay. I didn’t know that I did that.”
“That’s okay. I understand, you have issues with your torso.” 
“Yeah”, he nods his head, “fuck sorry, I’m an idiot. I thought you were thinking something bad, that I looked weird or something.”
“No, my love. Not even for a millisecond.” 
He nods his head, sagging his shoulders in relief.
“Okay. Uhm, thank you. I needed to hear this.”
“Of course, my love. Thank you for communicating.” 
Yoongi glances at your lips, “can I give you a kiss?” he whispers.
“Yes, but careful the choco”, you allow him. 
Together you make it work without spilling anything, ending the loving kiss with a little stub of your noses. 
Yoongi leans back with his eyes racing over your face.
“Did I seriously suck in my stomach all the time?” 
You nod your head.
“I didn’t realise that I did it.”
“I figured. When my current life started out and being naked in front of someone else suddenly became a regular thing, I began sucking in my tummy too until you helped me gain a lot of self confidence. I think we’re all a little too mean to the part of our body which literally keeps all our important organs safe and cozy”, you say and rub your tummy gently. 
Yoongi chuckles, his eyes soften. You giggle, scrunching your nose.
“Does it look weird now that I’m not doing it?”
You shake your head, “it didn’t look weird as you did it and it doesn’t look weird now. You have the perfect tummy”, you say and give it a little rub.
Yoongi looks into his mug, trying not to smile but failing miserably. His cheeks are rosy.
“My cutie”, you say and kiss his cheek.
He turns his head, begging for a kiss with longing eyes and parted lips. You can’t deny him, not when he looks so pretty like this. You kiss him as best as the mugs allow you to. 
You only break the kiss once air gets sparse. 
“This was nice”, you whisper. 
“Yeah. Nice”, he breathes, studying your lips as if they were his favourite artwork. 
You kiss him unexpectedly, resulting in his lips to tremble and his breath to hitch in his throat. You don’t let it deepen as it was only supposed to be a quick kiss, sitting back and taking the first sip of the cocoa.
“Mhhm yummy”, you say and drink again.
Yoongi tries his’ as well, nodding his head in agreement.
“It’s nice, isn’t it?”
“Yeah, it’s good. Really sweet though.”
“Yes, but that’s the best part. The sweet really makes it so yummy.” 
“Yeah”, he agrees and licks his lips after taking a sip, “do you still wanna watch a movie?” 
“Sure, I’d still be down. You?” 
“I guess, yeah.”
“So no”, you chuckle.
“No, sorry.”
“That’s okay, we could do something else. Oooh, do you wanna try the game?”
The cabin offers a Wii (mounted to the dresser because people can be assholes) with some multiplayer party games installed. You have been talking about trying Mario Party ever since you realised that it was on there. 
“Yeah we could do that. I’ll suck really bad though”, he says. 
“That’s okay. I’m not the best either”, you say and get off the couch to turn on the Wii, “should we compete against each other?” 
“Can’t we be a team? Is that possible?” he pouts, “I don’t wanna compete against you”, he murmurs sadly. 
“Fine, we’ll be a team. Okay, idea. One round we’re a team and another we’re competing? Just for fun?”
“Yeah, okay. I like this idea.”
The game is so much fun. You and Yoongi make up the perfect team. There is not a moment where one of you raises their voice or snaps at the other. The only times you and he get a little louder was during your victory cheers and especially thrilling moments during the mini games where you squealed and squeaked in excitement. It was shared squealing however and based on the thrill of the game.  
The second round was just as fun. Your cocoas have long been finished and you are cuddling under the blanket. You have your head on Yoongi’s chest while he is resting against the pillows. You can feel his voice whenever he speaks and you always get gently shaken around whenever he is caught by the thrill of a mini game. 
Yoongi ends up winning and despite his initial distaste against competing, he is very smug about it. 
“What can I say, I’m natural”, he says, putting the control down, “waaah, I’m a genius”, he sighs and drops his head into the pillows, smirking like the cocky little shit he currently is.
“Wah, look at you gloating”, you tease, nudging his chin.
“I’m not. I’m just saying. I’m a total natural.”
You shimmy up his body until your chests are touching and you have him under you. Your elbows rest in the pillows, his big hands rest themselves on your lower back. He is looking up at you with a smirk, yet fond eyes.
“You’re cocky”, you say, combing your fingers through his hair mindlessly.
“You’re just salty that you lost.”
“Wow”, you laugh, “and here I was thinking that you didn’t wanna compete against me.”
“I didn’t.”
“Mh-hm sure”, you joke.
Yoongi chuckles deeply. His face is glowing in adoration. You brush his bangs out of his face, giving his forehead a little massage as you do it. Over and over. It feels so nice to Yoongi. He feels in paradise right now. Your weight is on him, the blanket traps your shared body heats and your heart is beating so calmly against his chest. Your touch is also so gentle and filled with love and Yoongi thinks that you look especially pretty right now. 
He is in heaven. 
You giggle and rest your head on his shoulder. You can nuzzle your nose against his neck like this and Yoongi can hug you so, so tightly. He does it instantly, rubbing your back up and down and in little circles. 
“This is so cozy”, you whisper.
“Yeah, it’s cozy”, he agrees with his eyes closed. 
“Can we stay like this for a while?” 
“Yeah. Please.”
And so it happens that you cuddle for heaven knows how many minutes. It is so wonderful to both of you. To be so close, to share warmth, to hug and snuggle and adore. It is truly the best ending of an already amazing evening. You don’t talk a lot during the cuddles and that’s perfect. There is no better kind of comfort than truly enjoying the cuddles without any kind of distractions. 
You are soon starting to get sleepy however. Well, Yoongi more than you. And so you agree on leaving the couch for bed cuddles instead. You brush your teeth next to each other and while you leave for the bedroom first, Yoongi stays back to use the loo. 
You are sitting on the bed when he comes in. A candle is burning on the bedside table. Yoongi joins you on bed, lying down on his side while you keep seated. He looks up at you with a toothless, cute smile and reaches out to hold your hand. He is tracing your knuckles as he does. 
You retort the smile, shimmying into a more intimate position by taking a second pillow and using it to support your left arm. You are also on your side, giving Yoongi an opportunity to hide away in your chest. He takes it instantly, stubbing you with his nose as content, little purrs leave him. 
You close your arms around him, burying your right hand deep in his hair. You play with it, massaging his scalp and his exposed ear whenever you get the chance. His purrs grow in volume each time you pay attention to his ear, and from what you can tell, he rubs his feet together under the blanket whenever it happens. 
“Are you comfy?” you ask him in a soft voice.
“Yeah”, he whispers, nodding his head. He slides his hand under your shirt, rubbing your waist slowly. His palm feels incredibly soft against your skin, he warms you so well.
“Me too, my love”, you say and peck his ear. You follow it up with a little rub of his earlobe. Yoongi purrs and wiggles his toes. If someone would ever ask him the definition of perfect moment, he would say it is this one. To know that no one else is around and that he can truly let all his guards down is so incredibly relaxing to Yoongi. He likes life at the estate, he likes living together with his forever family, but sometimes he still feels a little too nervous to let go because of the possibility of someone walking in on you and him. So this holiday has been a dream for him. It’s just you and him and that means he can be the cuddly, snuggly boyfriend he so longs to be.
“Boongie?” you whisper into the silence.
“Mhm”, he hums, sounding sleepy.
“I have an idea.”
“Mhm.”
“What if I used the candle to give you a massage?” 
‘“Mhm? What?” he breathes.
“It’s a massage candle and I could use the wax to massage your back. You know? Rub your shoulders, trace your spine, get that tension out your lower back”, you say, scratching his back in demonstration. 
Yoongi shivers at the touch, rubbing his feet together. 
“Would you like that? I just think that it could be romantic.”
“Yeah”, he whispers.
“Yeah?”
He nods his head.
“Oh Yoongi”, you hug him against you, “I’m so happy. Wow, I’m gonna make you feel so good and cozy”, you say and break the hug to get the candle instead. 
Yoongi takes off his shirt in the meantime, lying down on his tummy. He lifts his arms above his head, hugging the pillow this way and squishing his cheek against it. He is watching you with half-lidded eyes, anticipating the massage with a fluttering tummy. You could do anything to him right now. Anything, as long as it means that he can stay in this cozy dream forever. 
“Oh? You’re already shirtless. Wow”, you say and crawl to him. The candle you have already blown out, holding it safely in your hand, “are you excited?”
He nods his head.
“Me too. I like massages.”
He hums in acknowledgement, but doesn’t say more.
“Actually, I like pampering you in general. Have you noticed?”
Yoongi thinks of all the countless, wonderful times you pampered him. All the baths you made him, all the times you washed his hair and soaped his body, all the massages and “super duper special king spa treatments” you give him, all the flower bouquets you make him and all the small little rubs and touches you give him throughout the day. Yoongi thinks of every time he felt adored and pampered by you and he feels his entire body tingle in reaction.
“Yeah”, he answers you, arching his back into your touch because you placed your hand on his back.
“I really like doing it”, you confess and sit down on the back of his thighs.
Yoongi hopes that you never stop doing it. He feels so unworthy of it sometimes until he remembers that you wouldn’t like it if you knew that he is putting himself down. Then he starts feeling grateful for it.
“Are you comfy like this? Am I too heavy?”
“You’re never too heavy. You’re perfect”, he lulls his words, having his eyes closed.
“Thank you, this is so sweet of you to say.”
You rub your right hand up and down his back, tracing the way his spine swirls with your fingertips.
“Are you ready? It will be really warm.”
“Yeah, ready.”
“Okay, here it comes”, you say and tilt the candle.
Yoongi reacts in a full body squirm and his thighs tensing under you. You trace his spine, painting a waxy line from between his shoulder blades down to his tailbone.
“How is the temperature?”
“Nice”, he sighs.
You place the candle aside and begin spreading the massage oil with the flat of your palms.
“Oh it feels so nice. Really warm. It’s like a warm oil pour”, you say as you work carefully to cover every inch of his back with the oil.
“Mhm”, he hums, nodding his head slowly.
“Oh my love”, you gush, “my love, your skin is so soft. You’re so perfect, my love.”
Yoongi flusters. He stays silent because he is shy and doesn’t know how to react to your compliments, but he hopes that you never stop with them. He loves being adored. He loves it so much. Staying alone and sheltered was never better than having someone like you in his life. He loves being loved and he loves loving in return.
Now that the oil is evenly distributed, you begin with the massage. You start off with his shoulders, using your thumbs to locate the tenser spots and using them as well to break them down in circular motions.
“You barely have knots, my love”, you tell him, massaging along his shoulder blades.
“Is ‘cause you always massage me”, he mumbles with his lips naturally pouted by the position he finds himself in.
“Yeah, that’s true. I do massage you a lot”, you say, “but then, you massage me a lot too.”
“Mhm. Is nice.”
“Very nice.”
“All of it is nice.” 
“Yeah? Am I doing well?”
He nods his head and shivers as you run your fingertips along his skin. 
“All of it’s nice”, he repeats, “I like this trip so much.”
“Me too, Boongie. I like it so much. You really picked out the perfect place.” 
“Thank you. I wanted it to be perfect. You’re my love.”
You feel your heart swell in your chest. You run your eyes over his features with butterflies dancing in your tummy. He is such a loving person. He always says that he is cold and unfamiliar with romance, but he is so full of love. He is warm and sweet and loves without being aware that he does. You lean down and kiss the shell of his ear.
“You’re my love too”, you whisper.
“Mhm”, he hums happily and smiles slightly, “I like the cocoa every night.” 
“Yeah, me too and all the yummy food you make.”
“Yeah, thank you. I try to be good.”
“You are the best. I’m so spoiled with you”, you kiss his ear again, “and lucky”, you add, giggling sweetly as you squeeze him gently. 
“No, I’m lucky”, he corrects you and shifts as you trace his spine, “I like it there.” 
“Yeah? There?” 
You trace his spine by massaging along each side of it. He has little dimples at his lower back. You include them in circular motions before going up again. You repeat it over and over. Down to his dimples and up to his shoulders.
“There is nice.” 
“Then I’ll keep doing that”, you say and fall silent together with him.
You and he share in the silence for a while. The only thing audible is the faint sound of your hands gliding over his oiled-up back. The sound is just as relaxing as the massage. For both of you. And while Yoongi enjoys the touch, you find great relaxation at the sight. You love how his skin and muscles shift and move under your fingertips. It is both fascinating and deeply relaxing. He looks so soft and squishable. You love it.
“Can you do my legs too?” Yoongi breaks the silence in a whisper.
“Your legs?” you whisper as well.
“Nevermind, it’s fucking stupid.” 
“No, it’s not. Of course I can do your legs. You just gotta help me with your pants, I got oily hands.”
“Yeah, okay. Cover my butt with something.” 
“Okay I will.” 
Yoongi shimmies out of his pants, kicking off the last few inches. You place one corner of the blanket over his butt, giving him a little pat.
“There we go. All modest.” 
“Don’t touch my butt.” 
“I’m not touching your butt, doofus”, you chuckle, “stay still, I’m getting more oil.”
“I’m serious, don’t touch my butt.”
“As a matter of fact, I will, Yoongi. I will only touch your butt from now on", you tease him sarcastically. 
“Whatever", he murmurs, closing his eyes again because you are moving to his legs.
You snicker, “doofus. By how you keep talking about it, Imma think you secretly want me to touch your butt.”
“No, I don’t. You’re wrong.”
“Okay okay if you say so”, you say with a fond chuckle on your lips. You begin spreading the oil on the back of his calves, “are your legs in pain?”
“Yeah, they’re sore from walking.”
“I’m surprised that you can get sore.”
“Yeah well….it’s bad.”
“Aaah I see. It is so bad and not just a scheme to get me to massage you longer.” 
“Yeah, it’s bad.” 
You snicker, “you’re cute”, you say and begin feeling up his calves, “and genuinely tense. Wow, does this hurt?” 
“A little. It’s okay.” 
“Sorry, I gotta loosen you up.”
“It’s okay”, he assures you, “we gotta take a break from walks tomorrow.”
“What? Noo, I was so excited for the walk. Can’t we do it again?” 
“Fine, okay. We’ll take a walk tomorrow.”
“Yay, thank you Boongie.” 
“Mhm”, he hums. A second of silence then he chuckles.
“Tickles?” 
“No, I’m just laughing at myself.”
“Why?”
“You give me one whine and I’m already saying yes. Fuck, I’m so weak for you”, he says and laughs.
“Yeah, true”, you snicker, “maybe I’m just a really good convincerer.” 
“That’s not even a word”, he cackles.
“Yeah it is. Just like skincarer is. And massagerer.” 
He snorts, shaking his head. He covers his eyes with his own hand, laughing with his shoulders.
You laugh with him, wiggling your shoulders happily. You love making him laugh. This is your greatest joy in life. 
“You’re so silly”, he says and sighs loudly, “god. Convincerer”, he murmurs and snickers to himself. 
“You must admit, it got a ring to it.”
“I guess, yeah.” 
You snicker and lower your eyes back to his legs. You guide your hands up his calves until you have his thighs under your palms. You continue the path, applying pressure to get out some of the tension. You stop at the edge of the blanket corner and drag your hands back down his legs again. All the way to his ankles. Back up with the goal of going down at the end. 
“Is this doing something for you?” you ask.
“Yeah.” 
“Good.”
You want to keep doing this motion for a bit because it really helps loosening everything up. Yoongi falls silent and so you share it with him. The wonderful thing about being with each other is that you can both talk and be quiet and it’s equally nice to do. Massages are the perfect time for both and it seems that Yoongi is in the mood for silence right now. 
What you don’t know however is that Yoongi has very sensitive thighs (you know that) and that your innocent touches suddenly start to feel very exciting to him. They feel nice and tingly on his calves and the back of his thighs, but feel almost electric on the inside of them. 
You rub your hands up his thighs, guiding your thumb along his inner thighs this way. Yoongi follows the touch, feeling flutters in his stomach.
He wants to get back in control. He doesn’t want to ruin this sweet moment by being horny. He isn’t like this. Not him.
Your thumbs draw circles on his upper most thighs. Yoongi shivers and bites down on his own lower lip.
But it’s so hard to stay calm. Oh it is so hard. 
Down again. Your attention is on his calves for now, while Yoongi wishes for it to be on his thighs instead. You draw relaxing lines for a little while and then you finally take on your journey up his thighs.
Nice and relaxing on the back of them, but electric on the inside. Yoongi opens his legs just a little. 
“Is that nice?” you ask him and stay lingering on his inner thighs.
Yoongi had hoped you would. That is why he spread his legs like a needy boy in the first place. 
“Nice”, he sighs, twisting a bundle of the pillow as his senses blur. He can feel every second of your touch. 
It is so obviously innocent. So full of love and adoration and the desire to relax. Yoongi feels so guilty for making it into something so exciting, but he can’t help himself. He’s got such sensitive thighs and your fingers carry special magic in them. One touch was enough to enchant him and now he is paying the consequences. On top of that, he is feeling so cozy and good tonight. This is a happy kind of horny. 
Your fingers slide under the hem of the sheets, brushing against the swell of his buttocks. Yoongi tenses up, not in discomfort but desire. He is on fire. This is making him so needy. 
“Oops, sorry. Too far”, you gasp, retreating your touch instantly.
Yoongi lifts his butt, aching for your touch.
“Please.”
Your stomach tingles. You feel intensely overwhelmed for just a second. He looked so needy. 
“I’m sorry?” you ask him, gawking at him with widened eyes and your hands resting on the back of his thighs.
“Mh-hm fuck”, he gets out and squirms. He lifts his hips again, tensing his thighs.
Your heart flutters. He is needy. This isn’t just a silly trick of your mind. Your innocent touches made him needy. You genuinely didn’t plan on doing this to him, so this is speeding up your pulse insanely.
“What’s the matter?” you ask him, rubbing his inner thighs to soothe him. This touch is not of innocent nature. This is meant to make him needier.
“Horny”, he whispers and lifts his butt again.
“Wow, this just made me so excited. You just opened the floodgates”, you say and chuckle, “are you serious?”
He nods his head and squirms, opening his legs further.
“Touch me. Please”, he begs quietly.
“Your bum?”
“Yeah.”
“Didn’t you specifically tell me not to touch your butt?”
“I was dumb. Wanna be touched. Please.” 
“Fuck, you’re hot. Wow Boongie, I didn’t plan for this evening to go that way, but I’m so excited”, you say and giggle. You claim the space above him for a moment, leaning down to bite his ear gently.
Yoongi sighs, tilting his head to give you better access. 
“Are you sure?”
“Yeah. You?” 
“Mh-hm yeah. What do you want me to do?” you ask him.
“Just do anything.”
“Not enough, I need you to use your words.”
Yoongi whines in embarrassment, shaking his head. You close your fingers around the back of his neck and squeeze in warning. He mewls quietly.
“Finger me”, he chokes out, following it up with a shy, “fuck, please.” 
“That’s better”, you praise and caress his neck, “I’m gonna make you feel so good, my love”, you whisper, basking in his breathy sighs. He looks so pretty making them with his lips parted and his eyes closed. You kiss his ear, “now stay. I’m getting the lube.”
Being organised is awesome because it only takes you a few seconds to get what you need. Lube and a little surprise for later. You’ll make sure to include it once Yoongi is blissed out. 
You climb on top of him and rub his back. Yoongi moves into the touch, relaxing under it. He is so excited. Being touched and pampered made him feel so needy tonight. Ninety percent of your massage nights don’t end in sex. They are truly just relaxing bonding moments to you and him, so tonight is an exception. An exception you are more than willing to take advantage of. You love when Yoongi gets the kind of needy where he begs for your touch. Those occasions are rare and precious. And leave you way too needy for more.
You draw circles on his lower back, using the opportunity to pull off the blanket. Yoongi arches his back the moment he is exposed, presenting his bubble butt to your eyes. 
“So pretty”, you say and grab his buttocks to knead them. He’s got so much to offer. For someone who is naturally petite, he has the most voluptuous butt ever. You love it and how it feels between your fingers.
Yoongi purrs, feeling his head begin to blur. You are exposing his hole every now and then, making him need it to be touched and explored. The air feels so cold on his skin, all he wants is your warm touch and the stretch of your fingers filling his hole.
Except that the first experience you give him is that of your insanely warm and wet tongue grinding against his hole.
“Ah”, Yoongi moans loudly, tensing his thighs. He wants to cum. That’s how fucking good the surprise feels. He is suddenly so fucking excited and turned on and giddy that he could genuinely burst.
“Mhm, mhm, mhm”, you let out as pull back with a sigh, “mhm so good”, you lick his hole, “so good, mhm”, you bury your face between his buttocks and grind the flat of your tongue against his hole by nodding your head.  
Yoongi didn’t plan on being loud, but here he is. Being loud. And it is solely because you decided to start it off by using your mouth on him. Him. The man with the biggest oral fixation ever. The man who absolutely loses every functioning brain cell the second your mouth is on any kind of pleasure spot. Yoongi didn’t plan on being loud, but it’s fucking impossible when you are giving him his favourite thing.
You break away again with a slurp. It is just for gathering your saliva because seconds later, you are spitting on his hole. You pick it up with your pointer and middle finger, spreading it on his hole in upwards and downwards motions. 
Yoongi reaches behind himself and spreads his own ass, dimpling his buttocks this way.
“That’s my good boy, spread yourself for me”, you talk to him sweetly, gazing at his exposed hole with love drunk eyes. He is so pretty.
Yoongi obeys gladly, feeling hazy. You made him wet, which makes the air feel so much colder on his skin. Never before did he crave your warm touch more than right now.
He mewls softly, arching his back. 
“You’re so pretty”, you say and place your hands over his’. You lower your tongue back to his begging hole and lap at it in quick, short licks. He flinches each time you do, clenching under your tongue needily. 
“Fuck…”
This is driving him insane. It feels so good. Your tongue is so wet and warm. Your hands over his’ feel so adoring and safe.
Yoongi buries his face in the pillow and groans. He drags out the sound until he has to breathe in, doing so in gasps and wiggles of his hips. 
“You’re cute”, you say, lifting your mouth from his hole. You make up for the loss of contact by rubbing his wet rim, playing with his balls with your other hand. He has the softest skin. You love feeling it up and giving it a good massage. 
“Good. Good what you’re doing”, he gets out, parting himself wider. He sticks his butt out just a little, presenting his hole almost proudly. 
Oh what a contrast to his once shy nature. He talked about covered butts and you staying away from it and now look at him. He is arching his back and parting himself willingly. 
“Keep it like that, love”, you order him, lifting your hands for just a few moments so you could reach for a spare pillow. You place it under him, guiding hid hips down gently. 
Yoongi loves when you guide him, rolling his hips into the pillow as if he was making love to it. 
“So needy”, you giggle and reach to your side for the lube.
“Yeah”, he agrees.
“Mhm, I love it. Spread yourself again, my love.”
He obeys instantly, waiting for your touch with bated breath. 
You open the lube bottle and tilt it over his hole, letting some of the lube trickle down. 
He doesn't react to it, but that is because he is Yoongi and he sometimes likes to stay quiet during sex. He also doesn’t react when you touch his rim to spread the lube, but you don’t mind these days. 
It was a little different at first. Of course it was. Having him be quiet even during something normally as vocal as sex was surprising at first, but with time and learning each other’s intimacy languages, you really started to enjoy his quiet moments. Because as long as Yoongi is quiet, it means he is so lost in the pleasure that he forgets to make sounds. 
“You’ve got the prettiest hole”, you praise because you love filling the silence with words of adoration. He deserves them. 
“Mhm.” 
“Ready?” 
“Yeah, ready”, he says and lifts his hips a little. 
“I’ll start with one.”
“Do it.” 
You rub the pad of your finger up and down his hole a few times before finally pushing in.
Yoongi loses all kinds of tension in his body instantly, sinking into the pillow as if you just pushed the turn off button to his muscle functions. He releases an audible sigh, following it up with a small “mhm”. 
“Slipped right in. You’re so soft, my love”, you purr, moving your finger in and out carefully, “hurts? You’re so tight.” 
“No. Good. So good.” 
“That’s good to hear. Tell me if it’s uncomfy.”
“Is good, keep going please.” 
There is something deeply meditative about fingering Yoongi. Which is something highly unusual to say about such a sexy act, but it really relaxes you tonight. You aren’t going fast or rough, chasing the pleasure like a madwoman craving her high. No. Tonight, you are going slow and gentle, making it all about the journey rather than the destination. 
You are taking time to really savour it and worship him in the process. While your dominant hand is busy with loosening his hole gently, your other hand is busy caressing his back and sides. You rub your palm up and down, trace his spine and give the softer spot a little squeeze. All while your finger gives him the feeling of being full he so dearly craved. 
Yoongi feels in paradise. He likes when you are rough and you force the pleasure to the surface. But there is something insanely healing about being eased into it. You take time, take it slow, keep it gentle. Yoongi feels so cherished and safe when you give it to him slowly. 
And how much more intensely it builds up. The warmth goes so much deeper and feels so much hotter than if you did it fast.
It has been quiet for some time already until Yoongi breaks it with a whisper of your name. He sounds so out of breath and hazy.
"Yes, my love?" 
“Can you use a second finger?” 
“Of course”, you say and slip out to put more lube. You give his rim a little rub and slide back inside. Two fingers at a time, you go slow to prevent pain. The pain never comes, only warm tingles so, so deep inside him.
He groans, clenching around you needily. 
“So tight again”, you speak softly, pumping your digits in and out of him. You curl them each time they pass his prostate, sending electricity all through his body.
“Mhhm”, his voice shook as he made the sound. 
“More lube?” 
He shakes his head, “feels so good.” 
Your stomach tingles. He is so sexy when he talks like this. 
“Mhm”, you hum and lean down to kiss your way up along his back until you have his ear under your lips. You keep the rhythm of your fingers going, nibbling on his ear slowly. 
Yoongi sighs, chasing your kisses with shivers running down his back. They go straight to his prostate, allowing your fingers to feel so much better than they already. Which means a lot because he is genuinely so far gone in paradise. 
“You feel so good”, he sighs and follows it up with a deep, happy moan.
“Mhm, my good boy”, you praise him and sit back up so you could really concentrate on fingering him. 
The tranquillity returns. Slow and gentle, you fuck open his pretty hole. You watch every shift and change, take in how it hugs your digits and moves around them and caress his back as you do it. Truly, you could do this for hours. Tranquillity might have returned, but Yoongi is a lot noisier than he was before. 
He gasps and sighs. He lets out little moans and deep groans. He even purrs and whispers your name every now and then. You kiss his back or ear with every sound he makes, feeling so entirely high on this moment that you have to moan with him every now and then.
You are sitting, gazing at his loose hole when Yoongi speaks again. Or begs for that matter.
“Faster.”
“Faster. Like this?” you ask and speed up by curling your fingers against his prostate repeatedly.��
“Ye-yes. Holy fuck, urgh god”, he groans and lifts his hips off the pillow to press back on your fingers.
“Shit, is this doing it for you?” 
“Yeah, yah, y-yeahah.” 
“This is so hot. So fucking hot, oh god.” 
“___, please don’t stop aaah.” 
“I won’t, my love. Fuck, this is so hot”, you moan, switching between looking at his flushed hole and his scrunched face. 
It is buried halfway in the sheets, glowing in bliss. Strands of his hair are sticking to his forehead, his brows are furrowed tightly. His cheeks are so pink, his lips are as well. 
“You’re so handsome, it’s insane”, you croak and look at his butt.
He can’t stop fucking back onto your fingers in squirmy arches of his back. It must feel so good. You are hitting the right spot. The truly, perfect right spot. 
“I wanna make you feel so good, Yoongi love. Shit, wanna make you shake”, you confess and speed up, adding movement to the curls. You use your wrist for it. 
Yoongi’s moans grow in volume and in quantity. If he isn’t moaning, he is gasping and breathing out the neediest curses. 
“Holy fuck, it feels so good. What the fuck are you doing?” he chokes out as he tries and fails to get on his knees. His legs are shaking too much to hold his weight. He is destined to drop back into the pillow and use what little strength his hips offer to fuck back onto your fingers.
“What are you doing to me? Oh god”, he keens, shaking under you.
“Is it that good?” 
“Yeeeees”, he groans and grabs the sheets above his head to twist them desperately, “fuck ___, fuck holy fuck.”
“I’m going insane, you are so sexy”, you moan, staring at him with blown out pupils. His ass is so noisy all of a sudden. So wet and greedy. You need to give it to him harder and make the noises grow. 
And oh how they grow. He sounds so wet, matching the volume with loud moans and needy variations of the word “yes” and your name. Truly, two words are enough to drive you mad. 
“You’re taking me so well”, you try to praise him, but quite frankly you can barely get the words out. He is stealing your sanity by being such a handsome, perfect man for you.
“A-ah ah aha ha”, Yoongi moans loudly, arching his back repeatedly as you abuse his prostate in the most amazing ways. He is close. His stomach is so tight, his legs so weak and the fire between them is reaching unbearable levels. You worked him up and now the crescendo is close. Yoongi swears he might need to scream soon.
“Mhhm Yoongi, that’s it. That’s my kitten.”
He is so restless, so squirmy and shaky. It is turning you on like crazy. Your fingers are starting to get tired, but you don’t slow down. You want to give him the fingerfuck of the century. He deserves to feel amazing.
“I have to cum”, he moans, shaking like crazy, “ah ah”, he squeaks breathily, getting on his knees to fuck back. His legs tremble uncontrollably, but he preservers, arching his back oh so prettily. 
“You’re so sexy. You’re so fucking pretty.”
“I have to, to cu-cum. ___ ah”,
“I’m not slowing down baby, cum on my fingers. Go on, show me.”
Yoongi yelps up in pleasure, breaking apart on your skilled fingers. He is clenching and pulsating around you, burying his face in the mattress so he wouldn’t scream. His fingers are twisting the sheets, his body twitches repeatedly. He isn’t leaking from his cock, which means he is currently experiencing the best kind of orgasm ever. A prostate orgasm. So intense and deep inside and insanely addictive, that one is never enough. 
Yoongi drops into the sheets once the shaking finally subsides. He huffs out air repeatedly, writhing weakly. He is tensing around your fingers, fucking the pillow as he keeps chasing the warmth. Of course one isn’t enough. 
“More”, he begs, “more please.” 
“You’re driving me insane”, you croak, “god, my fingers are gonna cramp. Give me a second, yeah?” you say and pull out.
“Please back. More please, don’t stop. Back”, he begs desperately.
“I am. Feel it”, you say and drag the tip of the prostate vibrator over his hole, “do you know what this is?” 
“Yeah”, Yoongi exhales, feeling drowsy in excitement.
“Do you want it?”
“Yeah, please.”
“Here it comes”, you say and push it in easily. 
Yoongi purrs, pushing back onto it. Once it sits snug inside him, you turn it on with a press of the button, switching to his favourite setting instantly. You don’t want to make him wait, not when he is so beautifully lost in bliss. Tonight is about him and giving him as much pleasure as possible.
Yoongi turns into jelly instantly, melting into the pillow. He releases small moans and purrs, enjoying the intense vibrations with parted lips and closed eyes. His prostate is throbbing. No words will ever be able to describe how good the toy feels after such an intense high.
“Feels good?”
He nods his head vigorously. His cheeks are flushed, his pink lips so wet from his drool. 
“That’s good to hear”, you say and lay down beside him, running your hand up and down his back. You prop yourself up on your elbow and lean down to kiss whatever parts of his face are exposed.
Yoongi chases you with needy purrs and quick gasps. He spills tears, whimpering so heartbreakingly that you get worried.
You shoot up, cupping his cheek.
“What’s the matter? Does it hurt?”
Yoongi peels his eyes open, looking at you in devotion. He spills a few tears.
“I love you”, he chokes out.
“I love you too”, you whisper, “oh Yoongi, you are so full of love.” 
He whimpers and touches your hand. You hold it instantly, enjoying how he is squeezing you weakly.
“Am I yours?” he asks.
“You’re mine. So entirely mine”, you whisper, brushing his hair out of his sweaty forehead.
Yoongi rolls his eyes back and closes them, growing slack in blissed relief. He is yours. Entirely yours. This feels so good to hear.
He furrows his brows and moans. The reassurance makes the toy feel insanely good all of a sudden. Better than it already did. 
“Touch my cock, please”, he hears himself beg even though his brain currently can’t process anything other than the addicting pleasure deep inside him. 
“Of course, my love. My beautiful love”, you say and give his forehead a kiss for good measures before you shimmy down between his legs again. 
His cock lies perfectly so you can take it between your fingers and jerk it. You pick up some lube as well, spreading it all over his cock and balls.
The vibrator still purrs and pulsates inside him as you begin your cock massage. You go slow for now, paying attention to his balls as well. They are so big and hard already. You know he is going to cum so fucking messily once it’s time.
“Oh god”, Yoongi croaks and twists the sheets, curling his toes as well. His hips chase your hand, trembling weakly because the pleasure is making him so feeble. 
“Now I can feel you all up”, you say and run your hands all over his cock, “you’ve got the prettiest cock. Such a pretty cock.” 
“I can’t do this for long.”
“It’s okay. Tonight’s about you, my prince. Let go whenever you need to.”
Yoongi melts even deeper into the sheets. Yes, that’s possible. You are ruining him to the very core and it feels so good that Yoongi loves every fucking second of being so entirely weak. Your hand is moving exactly how he needs it to. There is pressure around his cock, your warmth is seeping deep into him and your skin is so incredibly soft. You touch him with love. Yoongi can feel it. This isn’t just a touch meant to make him climax, this is a touch placed with love and adoration and because he is important to you. 
Yoongi fears that he might black out once he has to orgasm. You have him so weak. 
“I have to- ah.” 
“It’s okay, my prince. Let go. Just let go”, you encourage him with your sparkling eyes glued to his cock. It is so pink and flushed, glistening prettily because you make him so, so wet. 
“___”, Yoongi moans your name, which makes the orgasm which follows even more intense. Your name means everything to him. Having it be the last thing he can form before his orgasm utterly ruins him, makes him feel actually fucking high. 
Guttural moans follow after your name, his body shakes so much. 
“That’s it. Give me everything. That’s my prince, you’re such a good boy. Give me everything”, you talk him through it, feeling dizzy at the view. He is shooting so much cum and doing it so aggressively at that, that it is covering all of your hands and most of the sheets between his legs.
“God baby, I’m milking you dry. You’re such a good prince, my love. Such a good pretty prince.”
“___ please don’t- ah! stop!”
“I’m not stopping, my love. I want everything of you, you’re such a good boy like this”, you speak softly while your hand pumps his throbbing cock quickly. You apply pressure whenever you reach his tip, squeezing ever single droplet of cum out of him this way.
“___ please, ___”, Yoongi moans into the sheets, shaking harder with every repetition of your name.
He won’t be able to go again after this one, you can already sense it. You are completely destroying him to his very core and he loves it. You love it too. You really, really fucking do.
“Good boy, that’s my good boy. Give me everything”, you moan, allowing him to truly release everything with just a squeeze of your fingers around his tip and a gentle fondle of his balls, “fuck look at you, that’s my prince, squirt for me. Fuuck.”
Yoongi is screaming. At least what he considers screaming. Fuck, it feels so much better than good. This is healing. He didn’t even know how much tension he had inside until you finally squeezed it out of him.
Yoongi doesn’t know how long his orgasm takes, but he knows that once it starts to die down, everything begins to hurt fast. He feels so drained and ruined and his nerves beg for a break.
“Stop”, he croaks weakly, tensing up in discomfort.
“Enough?”
He nods his head, fleeing your hand.
“Good boy, I’m already stopping”, you say and drop his cock to turn off the toy. You go to pull it out, but Yoongi stops it. 
“Leave it, please.” 
“Okay, I will”, you and bend down to kiss along his spine, “god Yoongi, you’re such a good boy. And you’re so handsome and pretty and beautiful. My love, my beautiful love”, you whisper as you worship his back with kisses and touches.
Yoongi melts into a puddle of safe relaxation. There is no better way to recover than being adored by you. You do it so honestly. He always feels so much because of it. 
Once you reach his face, you lie down on your side again, propping yourself up on your elbow. You run your fingers over his face and through his hair, tracing his ear as well. You want him to feel how much you adore him and that he can feel safe with you.
Yoongi enjoys your touches with closed eyes and soft purrs. He feels safe and adored. You are doing such a good job in showing it.
Like this, you and he share moments of tranquillity again where no words need to be exchanged because being with each other is already enough to understand everything. 
The tranquillity gets broken by Yoongi fluttering his eyes open. You smile at him instantly. 
“Thank you”, he whispers. 
“That was a hell of a massage wasn’t it?” 
He chuckles tiredly, nodding his head. If it was humanly possible, his pupils would be little hearts right now. But it isn’t possible and so he gazes at you as if you were his fucking everything (which you are).
“Mhm”, you peck his cheek, “I had so much fun. I love when you’re so relaxed and clearly enjoying it. I love your moans, my love.”
“I loved it a lot”, he says and closes his eyes again, “you’re perfect.”
“No, you are perfect, my love. Gosh, I could eat you”, you say and bite his cheek.
Yoongi chuckles as much as he whines, leaning into it.
“Heh”, you let out, “now lie still, I’m cleaning you up. You made such a mess”, you say as you sit up to start cleaning.
“It felt so good. I couldn’t help it.”
“Don’t apologise, my love. I told you, I’m obsessed with you when you’re being like this.”
“Mhm.”
“The sheets are gonna be so cold and wet tonight though. Oh god, I think we need to pay for deep cleaning.” 
“Afterwards. You’re gonna get them messy too.”
“Oh? Ohoho Yoongi, what do you mean?” you coo playfully as you squeeze his buttocks softly.
“You know what I mean.”
“Mhm, I do. I’m really excited for it.” 
“Mhm.”
“Wanna keep the toy still inside?” you ask as you run your hands up and down his messy inner thighs.
“Maybe a bit longer. Sorry, it’s so nice.” 
“Don’t apologise. You can keep it in for as long as you want to”, you say and lean down to bite his left buttocks.
Yoongi complains loudly, but soon breaks into happy giggles with you. The giggles will continue all throughout the cleaning where you and he can’t seem to stop joking around and will only slowly die down once you and he are cuddling because for some reason, Yoongi can’t stop making funny noises and cracking you up with them.

Hard Reset XII
Pairing: Joe Burrow x Reader
Warnings: 18+
Description: This flashback fic covers Joe & Reader's first Valentine's Day together back at LSU. There's also another flashback nestled within this flashback (Joeception) of when they first met at LSU.
Time/Place: Thursday, Feb. 14, 2019 (Valentine's Day) / Baton Rouge, Louisiana (with a flashback to June 2018)
A/N: This is the twelfth fic in the Hard Reset series.
This flashback got too long so I'm posting it in two parts. The smut is in the second part, but I'm rating this 18+ because it's smut adjacent. I'm hoping to have the next chapter up before this week-end. The smut has been finished for awhile, but I'm just trying to put the finishing touches on the ending. Nothing is coming easy right now, but I refuse to give up. 😋
I've had a few messages asking me if LSU Joe has long or short hair in this flashback. In my mind, he has short hair with the forehead curls (see gif below). I've tried to keep the descriptions ambiguous just in case y'all wanna imagine him with the longer hair.
Tumblr media
Since I posted the first part of this as a sneak peek, I put a substantial (bold) cut so you can scroll down and start reading the new content w/o re-reading the sneak peek if you don't want to.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Thursday, Feb. 14, 2019 (Valentine's Day) / Baton Rouge, Louisiana
You exit the cool interior of the grocery store, squinting at the mid-afternoon sun as you quickly make your way to your car, popping the trunk and loading a few bags of groceries inside before hopping into the driver's seat; you slide your sunglasses on and head for the exit, looking both ways before easing out into the traffic on River Road, rolling your windows down and throwing a quick glance at the Mississippi River as it runs parallel to the street, its earthy, fertile scent bringing a smile to your face.
"70 degrees in mid-February!" you mimic in Joe's voice, laughing at the accuracy of your impersonation. "He's def gonna bitch about it," you continue, flicking your turn signal on a few minutes later before making the turn that will take you away from the river and toward your apartment complex.
~ ~ ~
An hour later, you're whipping up some homemade frosting when your bestie/roommate Gina walks in, sniffing the air dramatically.
"Smells like heaven," she groans, eyeing the fluffy pink concoction as you finish beating it with a mixer. "What is it?"
"Raspberry buttercream frosting," you answer, grabbing two spoons and scooping some frosting on each before handing her one. "How's it taste?" you ask, laughing when she makes loud, appreciative noises.
"Delish! I can't believe you made homemade frosting," she marvels. "What ya gonna put it on?"
"Chocolate cupcakes." You step back and wave a hand at the plump cupcakes sitting pretty on a cooling rack beside the oven. "I made these from a triple chocolate cake mix, so they're just semi-homemade."
"Oh, just semi-homemade? I better call the food police," she teases, walking over and leaning down to sniff the cupcakes before throwing you a look. "I hope Joe realizes how lucky he is to have a woman who loves to cook."
"He's very appreciative," you mutter, blushing when she cackles at the look on your face.
"Seven months in and you're still blushing over this man? He's def doing something right."
"Not gonna argue with that," you giggle, peeling the wrapper off one of the still-warm cupcakes before cutting it in half; you smear a generous amount of frosting on both halves before handing one to Gina. "Happy V Day," you state, bumping your cupcake half against hers before taking a big bite. "Happy V Day," she parrots, making num-num noises as she polishes off the confection.
"What are you and Trey doing tonight?" you ask, licking a dollop of frosting off your finger as she rolls her eyes.
"He's bringing take-out over because he waited too long to make a reservation, so literally everywhere decent is booked up. I told him if he brings wings or pizza, he can forget about getting any pussy."
You laugh along with her for a bit before quieting down. "So what did y'all decide on since wings and pizza is clearly a no go?"
"Nothing," she shrugs. "I'm tired of having to ask for things I want. After almost a year and a half together, he should know without me telling him. He's just gotten lazy and expects me to do all the work and make all the decisions. He mostly just sits and scrolls his phone when we're together unless I tell him what to do."
"I hear you. -- So what do you actually want for dinner tonight?"
She thinks for several seconds before answering. "I know it's basic as hell, but I'd love some lasagna and breadsticks from Olive Garden."
"Might be basic but still delicious." You give her a wink as you cover the bowl of frosting with plastic wrap and place it in the fridge. "I made enough cupcakes to share with you and Trey," you continue. "Once they cool completely, I'll frost them for you."
"Thanks, but I might hoard 'em for myself if he shows up with McDonald's or some shit."
You walk out of the kitchen and head toward your bedroom, beckoning Gina to follow. "He's not gonna show up with McDonald's," you scoff, pulling the top drawer of your dresser open to grab two pair of panties, one pink and one red, both with tags still attached.
"What are these?" she asks, eyebrows rising when you hand her the red pair.
"I ordered them a couple of weeks ago. I was starting to think they wouldn't arrive in time, but they got here yesterday. Happy V Day!"
"Thanks, girl!" She holds the flimsy mesh thong up to her face, grinning at you through the gossamer fabric. "These are totally see-through," she giggles, "and that center seam on the crotch is gonna give major camel toe."
"Exactly," you purr, wiggling your blush-pink thong that's identical to hers except for the color. "Next best thing to crotchless without being crotchless."
"Oh shit, that reminds me of the crotchless panties I gave you as a gift!" she chirps. "You wore them for Halloween, right?"
"Yep, Joe totally wrecked them."
"That ain't the only thing he wrecked," she chortles. "You were def walking funny the next day."
You join in the laughter for a sec before speaking. "I mean, yeah, he beat it up for real, but the limp I had was mostly because I tweaked my groin from doing the splits on his face without stretching first. Didn't even realize it until the next day."
"No way!" she hollers, falling onto your bed and kicking her feet in the air while cackling. "Hold up," she gasps after several seconds, pointing at your yoga mat that's rolled up and leaning against the wall in the corner of your room. "Wasn't it just after Halloween when you got majorly into yoga?"
"Maybe," you shrug, grinning ear-to-ear as she mentally connects the dots.
"I thought you were just trying something new since you already do cardio and strength training, but you've actually been getting more limber for sex?"
"Yep, don't wanna pull a muscle."
"You lucky bitch! I can't even get Trey to pull my hair during sex much less pull a damn muscle!"
The look on her face causes you to throw yourself on the bed beside her, both of you roaring with laughter until your phone rings.
"Oh shit, it's Joe," you wheeze as you check the display, gasping for breath to try and get yourself under control before answering. "Hey babe," you manage before immediately dissolving into another fit of giggles.
"Hey," he answers, his voice slightly bemused. "You okay?"
"Y … yeah," you pant, biting your lip hard enough to hurt before cutting a side-eye at Gina, her ridic, bug-eyed expression causing you to snort loudly before howling with laughter.
"Are you laughing or crying?" Joe asks.
"Laugh … ing," you wheeze, taking in copious gulps of air as Gina grabs a pillow and rolls off the bed and onto the floor, using the pillow to muffle her laughter.
"What the hell, babe?" he asks, sounding slightly worried. "Are you sure you're okay?"
"I'm fine." You take a few deep breaths before continuing. "Gina said something funny right before you called."
"Are y'all drunk?"
"No, daddy, we haven't been underage drinking."
"I don't give a shit about underage drinking and you know it. I mean, you'll be 21 in less than three months."
"You sound kinda pissed," you pout, smiling at his heavy sigh.
"I'm not pissed, and I don't care if you've been drinking. Matter of fact, I've got two bottles of your fav blush wine chilling in my fridge for tonight, I just don't want you drinking and driving. Let me know if I need to come get you."
"I haven't been drinking," you reiterate. "I'm putting you on speaker," you continue. "Gina? Have we been drinking?"
"We have not been drinking!" she states loudly from the floor.
"Told ya, daddy," you gloat in your brattiest voice.
"If you call me daddy one more time, we're gonna have a problem."
"You gonna punish me?" you purr. "Maybe ground me for a week?"
"Maybe bend you over, pull your panties down and spank your sweet ass before burying my tongue in your …"
"You're on speaker!" you yelp, laughing as Gina hops up and sprints for the door, throwing you a naughty smirk on the way out.
"Sorry. Got a little carried away," Joe mutters.
"It's fine. Gina ran like hell, but you didn't say anything super raunchy."
"Only because you interrupted me."
"I mean … we were talking about sex when you called."
"Ummm, do I even wanna know the deets since you were laughing so hard you could barely breathe?"
"Just that I got into yoga so I could be super limber for sex with you. You frequently get me in positions where my knees are pushed up by my ears or I'm basically doing the splits."
"What's funny about that?"
"Nothing. I'll tell you more later."
"You like it when I manhandle you a little, right?"
You smile at his uncertain tone. "I love it. You know I love it. The funny part was her reaction. Apparently, Trey doesn't get down like that so she was expressing her, ummm, frustration. The look on her face was what set me off."
"Does Trey know he's a boring lay?"
"Probably not," you giggle, "and don't you dare tell him."
"I hardly ever talk to him. He's been aggravated at me ever since Gina told him I pay for your monthly bikini wax, and now he feels like he has to do the same for her. I told him it's only fair since getting your pubes ripped out is no fun, and it's at least partially being done for his pleasure."
"He can be a little self-centered."
"A little?" Joe snorts.
"Okay, a lot. Gina loves him, though, so hopefully he grows out of it eventually."
"Wouldn't put money on it, but anyway … how's your day going?"
"Good. My classes were boring, as usual, but I have zero homework so that's good. Also, I picked up all the groceries I need to cook dinner for us tonight."
"Did you have any trouble using my credit card?"
You chew on your lip for a second before answering. "I didn't use it."
"Why not?"
"Because I wanted to treat you for once; you always pay for stuff."
"Listen … you go to the store, bring stuff to my place and cook delicious food for us. The least I can do is pay for the groceries."
"Just let me treat you this one time. It's part of my Valentine's Day gift to you."
"We'll see," he mumbles. "Do you need any help getting everything to my place?"
"Nah, I think I can manage the grueling five minute drive by myself," you snark.
"You gonna be a little shit all night, or is this just an appetizer?"
"Just an appetizer," you giggle. "I intend to be way worse later."
"Don't threaten me with a good time."
"It's a promise not a threat," you purr.
"Woman, I need to go work-out, and I don't wanna hit the gym with a hard-on. Can we save the sexy banter for later?"
"Yes, sir," you drawl, putting as much implied sex in the two syllables as possible.
"Keep that same energy for later tonight," he orders, his voice dropping an octave like it always does when he's aroused.
"Yes, sirrrr," you repeat, giggling at his exasperated groan.
"One more 'daddy' or 'sir' out of your pretty mouth, and I'm gonna skip the gym and drive straight to your place."
"No, you won't," you tease. "You're religious about getting your work-outs in."
"Listen, I'm gonna hit the gym, come home, eat dinner with you, then fuck you 'til you can't think straight. Then I'm gonna reload and fuck you again."
"Sounds good," you whisper, a sizzle of anticipation racing down your spine.
"What time are you coming over?" he asks, his voice still thick with arousal.
"Probably about 5:00."
"I'll be back from the gym by 5:30."
"Okay."
"And, babe?"
"Yeah?"
"I intend to go hard so make sure to take your vitamins and stretch."
"Yes, sir," you whimper, ending the call before he can say anything else. "He's def gonna make me pay for that later," you giggle to yourself, hopping off the bed to go find Gina.
* * * end of sneak peek * * *
You find Gina sitting on the sofa when you walk into the living area. "Hey," you grin, plopping down beside her. "Hope we didn't gross you out."
"Not a bit," she laughs, handing you a small gift bag. "It's your fav bath bomb and some chocolate-covered almonds," she continues as you peek into the bag.
"Thank you! That's so sweet." You give her a hug before setting the bag on the coffee table.
"You're welcome. So, you and Joe are staying in tonight, right?"
"Yeah, we don't like going out on holiday nights because of the big crowds."
"Y'all are always on the same wavelength," she smiles. "What are you cooking for him? Besides the cupcakes?"
"His fav spicy Cajun pasta plus garlic bread and salad."
"Is that the pasta that has blackened chicken, shrimp and andouille sausage in it?"
"Yep."
"Yum! That's what I want you to make for my 21st birthday dinner. I've been craving it for a while."
"I mean, I can make it for you sooner than that if you're jonesing. We don't have to wait a whole month until your birthday."
She gives you a smile as she shakes her head. "It'll be worth the wait. Besides, I'm prob gonna be eating a fucking Big Mac and fries for dinner tonight, so I need to let my digestive system recover before I gobble down that delish pasta."
"You're not eating a fucking Big Mac and fries," you laugh, grabbing your phone and hitting a number before putting it on speaker.
"Hey Y/n," Trey drawls. "What's up?"
"Hey." You smile at Gina's surprised expression before continuing. "Listen, lasagna and breadsticks from Olive Garden."
"Ummm, what?"
"You're bringing dinner to Gina for Valentine's, right?"
"Yeah."
"Lasagna and breadsticks from Olive Garden."
"For real?"
"Yep."
"Okay, cool. -- Anything else?"
"Just … remember that Valentine's Day is about romance." You grin at Gina as she bugs her eyes out at you. "Turn your damn phone off and seduce your woman."
"Did she tell you to say that?"
"No, but I've heard her grumble at you a few times lately about constantly being on your phone when y'all are together."
"That's true," he mumbles. "I def need to be better about that."
"Tonight is the perfect time to start."
"Okaaay, so lasagna, breadsticks, seduction and stay off the phone?"
"Yep."
"Got it."
"Cool. Have a nice night." You end the call and level a no-nonsense look at Gina. "Okay, girl, I did my part. You gotta take the reins once he gets here."
"What do you mean?"
"You got a fresh coochie wax and some naughty panties. Put him on his back and sit on his face."
"For real?"
"Yes! I think he's too shy to initiate that kind of action, but I bet he'll be totally into it if you take control."
"I … don't know."
"He goes down on you, right?"
"Yeah, but not like that."
"Not yet," you purr, wiggling your eyebrows.
She gives you a look before taking a deep breath. "I'm gonna try it."
"Yes!" you chirp. "Just make sure you stretch first."
"I will," she giggles, her eyes going wide when the doorbell rings.
"I'll get it," you state, quickly heading to the front door and checking the peephole before opening it. "Wow!" you gush, smiling at the sight of a vase full of blush-pink roses; a head pops out from behind the beautiful arrangement. "Delivery for Y/n," the delivery driver says, giving you a cheerful smile as you reach for the vase.
"That's me."
"I got one more delivery for this address," she says. "Be right back."
You're grinning ear-to-ear when you walk back into the living room.
"Those are gorgeous!" Gina gushes.
"For real! Listen, you need to go to the door; the delivery driver is bringing another arrangement." She gives you a 'say what?' look before heading to the front door.
You set the glass vase on the kitchen island and open the card, reading it out loud. "Happy first Valentine's Day! Can't wait to celebrate many more together. Love, Joe."
You're still smiling when Gina walks in with a vase full of red roses. "Gurrrrl," she chuckles. "I know you told Trey to send these to me."
"I didn't! Swear to God!"
"Really? 'Cause it's kinda cray that Joe and Trey sent the same flowers -- just a diff color -- from the same florist."
You nod your head for a bit before a thought hits you. "I wonder if Joe said something to Trey? If he did, he didn't tell me."
"Call him and ask him."
"Okay," you grin, heading for your bedroom. "Be right back." You close your bedroom door and hit Joe's number, hoping he isn't already working out.
"Hey," he answers almost immediately.
"Hey," you echo. "Thanks for the roses. I love them."
"You're welcome."
"Can you talk for a sec?"
"Yeah. I just got to the gym, but I haven't started working out yet."
"Did you tell Trey to send Gina flowers?"
"Uhhh, no. He called me a few days ago and asked if I was sending you flowers. I said yes and told him what I was sending and the name of the florist. Why?"
"She got the same arrangement you sent me but with red roses instead of pink."
"Well, good for Trey. Maybe there's hope for him after all."
"Maybe so," you grin, dropping your voice a bit. "I really love the roses. Can't wait to thank you for them later. They're gorgeous."
"You're gorgeous," he murmurs.
"You better go get your work-out done so you can hurry up and get home."
"Yes, ma'am."
"Don't expend all of your energy, okay? Save some for me."
"Don't worry about that. I got plenty," he boasts, his cocky tone bringing a smile to your face.
You end the call and walk back into the living area, giving Gina a huge grin as she waits for the deets. "Joe didn't tell Trey to send the roses."
"Really?"
"Really." You explain the situation while she shakes her head.
"Damn, I guess he was afraid Joe would show him up," she giggles.
"A little healthy competition can be a good thing," you state, laughing along with her for several seconds before y'all quiet down. "I should've got Joe a couple more things for V Day," you mumble.
"Whaaaat?" she chirps. "You're cooking him dinner and dessert, plus you're supplying the naughty panties and the contents of said panties."
"That's true," you chuckle, "plus I got him a jigsaw puzzle to remind him of the first … well ... actually the second time he asked me out."
"You mean the second time you shot him down?"
"Yeah," you grin, letting your mind rewind back to June 2018.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Early June 2018 - Baton Rouge, Louisiana (in a small bookstore just off LSU campus)
You take a sip of your iced coffee and scowl at your computer screen, hitting your delete key several times while barely registering the sound of the bell that alerts you to a customer entering the bookstore. "Let me know if you need any help," you automatically say, never taking your eyes off of your screen.
Several minutes later, you catch some movement in your peripheral vision and quickly turn your head, making eye contact with a tall, blonde man for a few seconds before he disappears behind the bookshelves. Haven't seen him here before, you think to yourself, taking another sip of your drink as you continue to look in his direction.
He eventually reappears, and you smile at him. "Need help finding something?" you ask, swallowing hard as he walks toward you, his long-legged stride making you feel a little funny.
"Just looking," he says, the sound of his voice hitting you like a roundhouse kick to the face.
"Oh … okay," you mutter, your pulse picking up as he walks directly up to the large L-shaped desk that serves as a check-out counter and sticks a hand out toward you, his impressive height and broad shoulders completely blocking out the late-afternoon sun streaming in the windows behind him.
"I'm Joe," he announces, giving you a devastating smile when you stand up from your desk chair and grasp his hand.
You try not to react to the electric shock you feel when you nestle your hand in his much bigger one. "I'm Y/n," you mumble.
"Nice to meet you, Y/n. I'm new here. Just recently transferred over from OSU."
"Oklahoma State?" you ask, grinning when he rolls his pretty blue eyes.
"Ohio State," he answers.
"You're a midwestern boy, huh?"
He raises one eyebrow before answering. "A midwestern man."
"My bad," you giggle, biting your lip as a blush rises in your face; his gaze drops down to your mouth and you feel something stir deep inside you, a rush of heat and a steady throb between your legs that makes you react by pressing your thighs together.
"No problem," he states, his already deep voice dropping a full octave lower; he quickly flicks his gaze down to your denim-clad thighs, lingering there briefly before recapturing your gaze.
Got damn, you think to yourself, trying to act normal as your body continues to react to him. I prob need to buy some new batteries for my vibrator, you muse, wiping your sweaty palms on your jeans when his sinful lips curl up in a wicked grin, like he's reading your mind and really liking what he sees.
The entrance bell ringing breaks the porny spell, and you turn your head toward the door, smiling at one of your regular customers. "Hi, Mrs. Peavy. The book you ordered came in today's mail."
"That's great news!" she chirps. "I'm just gonna browse for a bit before I check out."
She disappears back behind the tall bookshelves, and you return your attention to Joe, catching his gaze sliding down your body again before he clears his throat and checks his watch. "I gotta get to the gym," he mutters, raking a hand through his hair while backing away from you. "It was really nice meeting you."
"You too," you grin, shamelessly ogling his ass in his slinky shorts as he heads out the door.

One week later
You're sipping another iced coffee and staring into space when the entrance bell jingles, pulling your attention to the tall, blonde man striding toward you. "Hey," you grin, standing up as he walks directly up to your desk.
"Hey," he echoes, waggling his large styrofoam cup. "Am I allowed to have this in here?"
"Is it a drive-thru daiquiri? And if it is, are you at least 21?"
"I'm 21, but it's a smoothie not a daiquiri," he chuckles. "I just didn't know if y'all allow drinks in the store."
"It's fine," you state, pointing at your iced coffee. "Drinks are def allowed."
"What is that?" he asks.
"It's an iced mocha latte. I have one every workday to give me a little caffeine boost."
"What days do you work?"
"Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday 3:00 - 7:00."
"That explains why you weren't here when I popped in last Friday afternoon."
"Yep, that explains it," you say inanely, your pulse picking up at the thought that he came in hoping to see you. He takes a sip of his smoothie, and your gaze is drawn to his throat, his prominent Adam's apple bobbing as he swallows the frosty beverage.
He licks his lips before giving you a lethal grin. "Did you know that you get a greater energy boost from eating an apple instead of drinking a caffeinated beverage?"
"No way," you grin, taking a big slurp of your iced coffee while he gives a vigorous nod, causing a dirty-blonde curl to bounce against his forehead.
"Seriously," he states. "There are studies that show eating an apple gives you a longer energy boost than a cup of coffee. Honeycrisp apples are my fav," he continues. "Have you ever tried one?"
"Maybe baked in a pie or dunked in caramel," you tease, "but be for real. Apples don't have caffeine."
"True," he nods. "It's the natural sugars and the fiber in the skin that give you the sustained energy boost."
"Are you a registered dietician?" you ask with a hint of playful snark.
"No, but I'm an athlete, so I've consulted with lots of dieticians and sports nutritionists."
"I see," you grin, half-convinced he's bullshitting even though he's built like an athlete. "Think I'll stick with my trusty caffeine."
"Cool," he quips, shifting his weight from one foot to the other while raking a hand through his hair. "Sooo, you go to LSU?" he asks.
"Yeah, I'm in my junior year."
"Cool," he repeats. "You taking any summer classes?"
"Just one; it's an online course in business ethics. Super easy."
"What's your major?"
"I'm doing a double major in graphic design and digital advertising."
"That sounds interesting and also a little intense."
"It's really not bad," you admit. "I rarely have homework since I get most everything done in class plus the 12 hours a week I spend here at the bookstore."
"How long have you worked here?"
"Since about midway through freshman year. My parents were against it at first, but they came around once they realized how ideal it is. It's nice to make a little extra money instead of expecting them to pay for everything. Between my partial scholarship and the college fund they started when I was born, I'm gonna graduate with zero student loan debt, which is basically like winning the lottery these days."
"Damn right," he enthuses. "I did my undergrad in finance, and starting a college fund as soon as possible is one of the best things a parent can do for their child."
"Undergrad?" you ask. "Do you already have a degree?"
"Yeah, I got a bachelor's from OSU in consumer and family financial services. I'm a graduate transfer doing a master's in liberal arts."
You raise your eyebrows. "That's quite a move from Ohio to Louisiana. Do you have family here?"
"No … well, not yet. Eventually my teammates will be as close as family."
"Teammates?"
"Yeah, football teammates."
You feel your heart sink at the implication. "You play football?"
"Yeah."
"For the university?"
"Uhhh, yeah. I was a back-up quarterback for three years at OSU, so I transferred here to get a chance to start."
"A fucking quarterback," you mumble under your breath.
"What was that? I didn't hear you."
"Nothing." You give him a bland smile before taking another hearty gulp of your 'caffeinated beverage'.
He watches you closely for a few seconds before speaking. "I take it you don't like football."
"What makes you say that?" you ask, a bit disconcerted that he read you so easily.
"Your whole demeanor changed when I mentioned it."
"I like it fine," you scoff. "I mean, except for the fact that it's violent as fuck, and I'm always worried I might witness a horrific injury. Other than that, I think it's just peachy."
He hits you with that panty-dropping grin, and you're more than a little annoyed when your body reacts. Simmer down, you think to yourself. Nothing dumber than getting sprung over a fuck boy quarterback.
"How many games have you been to here at LSU?" he asks.
"Several," you lie.
"Several, huh? Like at least ten?"
"Like three," you mumble. "The last game I went to kind of ruined it for me."
"What happened? Horrific injury?"
"No. There was a drunk dude sitting beside me who kept sloshing beer on my boots, literally burped in my face, and then had the audacity to get mad when I refused to give him my number."
"Yikes. Not cool."
"Indeed," you grumble.
"Well, if you come watch me play this fall, maybe I can give you a few tips to avoid the drunk assholes."
"As if," you snort, rolling your eyes when he hits you with a pouty expression. That shit's not working on me, pretty boy, you think to yourself, squaring your shoulders as he shifts his weight again and hits you with another smile.
"Well, anyway … would you like to maybe grab lunch or something this week-end?" he asks.
"Ummm, I'm actually hosting a 21st birthday slumber party for a friend this week-end."
"All week-end? Friday through Sunday?"
"Kind of," you mutter, hoping he doesn't ask you to elaborate.
"Cool," he says, "hope y'all have fun."
"Thanks," you mumble, your gaze darting to the door as the bell jingles, signaling a new customer.
"I better get going," he says, giving you a lingering look before striding toward the door.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Two weeks later
You hear the entrance bell jingle and quickly cut a glance at the door, eyes going wide when Joe walks in. Holy shit, take a hint, you think to yourself, giving him a bland look as he walks up to your desk.
"Hey," he smiles.
"Hey," you echo, trying hard not to return his smile.
"How was your slumber party?"
"Good."
The silence stretches out between you for a bit before he speaks up.
"Did I do something to upset you?"
"Nope."
"Okaaay," he mutters, running a hand through his hair while clearing his throat. "Look, I know you don't love football, but I can talk about a lot more than that. I was hoping we could maybe get to know each other better? Maybe just go out for ice cream or lunch sometime?"
"When?" you deadpan.
"Ummm, maybe Friday? I have some team activities Saturday and Sunday."
You give him a tight smile before answering. "Friday's not good for me. I have a 3000 piece jigsaw puzzle that I'm jonesing to finish, and I have it on my schedule for this Friday."
"A jigsaw puzzle?" he asks, his tone bordering on incredulous.
"Yep," you chirp, your expression daring him to question you further.
The silence stretches out for an uncomfortable amount of time before he finally breaks it.
"I get it," he mutters, slowly backing away. "Sorry for bothering you." He spins around and heads for the exit, stopping just before opening the door to look back at you; his gaze lingers on you for several seconds before he pulls the door open and walks out.
You release the breath you didn't realize you were holding and slump back in your desk chair, wondering why you feel so empty when you should really feel amazing for curving an obvious fuck boy.
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
Two weeks later
You finish the last bite of your shrimp po' boy and dab your mouth with your napkin, quickly turning your head toward the street behind you as a car backfire causes everyone to flinch.
"Got damn!" Gina snaps, grabbing her glass of sweet tea and taking several gulps. "Damn near choked," she wheezes, both of you giggling.
Y'all are sitting at one of many picnic tables at an outdoor food court that's flanked by several food trucks; you take a sip of your sweet tea and turn your head again, scanning the lunchtime crowd until your gaze comes to rest on a familiar figure sitting at a table with a few other guys.
"Oh shit!" you gasp.
"What is it?" Gina asks, her head on a swivel to see what upset you.
"Don't look!" you hiss. "It's Joe."
"Who?"
"That guy who came into the bookstore a few times and asked me out."
"The quarterback?"
"Yes," you whisper, turning your head slowly to find him staring directly at you. "Oh shit, fuck, dammit to hell," you breathe, plastering on a fake smile and waving when he waves at you.
"He's headed this way," Gina warns.
"Should I run?"
"Hell no," she laughs. "Just smile and act unaffected."
"Fuck my life," you mutter, smiling as he walks up to your table. "Hey," you greet, annoyed at the breathless tone of your voice.
"Hey," he echoes.
"Ummm, Joe this is Gina," you say, gesturing toward her, "my roommate and bestie. Gina this is Joe," you continue, gesturing toward him.
"Nice to meet you," Gina says.
"You too," Joe grins, looking back and forth between you before Gina speaks up.
"I'm gonna throw out our trash and head to the car," she announces. "Y'all take your time talking."
"Thanks," you grimace, gesturing at the seat opposite you once Gina vacates it. "Have a seat."
"Thanks," Joe says, dropping his big frame down and resting his ridiculously sexy hands and forearms on the table.
Asshole, you think to yourself, hating the fact that you're incredibly attracted to him. "Sooo, how's your football stuff going?" you ask.
"Good. How's your jigsaw puzzle stuff going?" he asks, not even trying to hide his smirk.
"Good," you state, your cunty expression daring him to call you out.
He stares at you for several seconds before speaking. "Look … I just wanna tell you that the jigsaw puzzle thing is the worst brush off I've ever heard."
"What makes you think it was a brush off?" you ask.
"Because it's ridic. You could've finished the puzzle any other time."
"I could have," you agree. "But I was really looking forward to doing it that specific night."
He tilts his head and gives you a look. "I don't think the puzzle actually exists."
"Oh really?" you mumble, grabbing your phone and scrolling through your pics until you find what you're looking for. "This is it," you say, studying the pic while continuing. "It's a shot from the Hubble telescope." You flip your phone around so he can see it. "It's the …"
"Crab nebula," he finishes your sentence, taking your phone and setting it on the table in front of him. "Damn," he whispers, leaning down for a better look. "This is a beautiful shot." He quickly flicks his gaze up at you before looking back down at your phone. "Most colorized shots of the Crab nebula are depicted in cool colors, but this heat signature is very hot," he murmurs.
Very fucking hot, you think to yourself, studying his face as he continues to look at the pic, his long eyelashes fanned out against his slightly-sunburned cheeks.
He eventually slides your phone across the table toward you and gives you a sheepish grin. "I owe you an apology for not believing you. I'm sorry."
You feel a hot blush rise in your cheeks, more from shame than attraction, and you heave a sigh before responding. "Listen … I did finish the puzzle Friday, but you were right when you said I could've done it another time, so it basically was a brush off."
"Thanks for being honest," he states. "Why don't you simplify this by just saying you aren't interested in me."
"Because that would be a lie," you blurt, surprising yourself just as much as him with your admission.
"Okay, now I'm confused," he grins. "If you're interested then why the brush off?"
You have an answer ready because that's pretty much all you've been thinking about lately. "I just feel like we wouldn't be very compatible."
"What are you basing that on?"
You shrug. "I'm an introverted bookworm who doesn't really like to party. I enjoy cooking for my friends and hanging out at home."
"That perfectly describes me minus the cooking part," he grins, laughing softly when you narrow your eyes at him.
"Boy please," you scoff. "Most college athletes are huge partiers and total manwhores."
"What are you basing that on?" he repeats.
"I'm basing it on my experience, and also things I've seen and heard from friends."
"So you've dated some college athletes?"
"Kind of," you mumble. "He was actually my high school boyfriend, a year older than me. We dated for just over a year before he graduated and went to college. He wasn't talented enough to get a Division 1 football scholarship, but he did get a D2. The school was about a four hour drive from our hometown. He promised me we'd make the distance work, then he proceeded to fuck everything in a skirt the second he hit campus. Luckily I had several other friends at the same school who dropped a dime on his fuck boy ways."
"Was he a quarterback?"
"No, but the quarterback on his college team was even worse. One of those gross dudes who brags about getting more ass than a barstool."
"I see," he mutters, taking a deep breath before continuing. "So now you think all football players are like that? Like 100% of us?"
You shrug. "Maybe not 100% but why chance it? I know that not all snakes are poisonous, but I still avoid 'em. You're a man, though, so you wouldn't understand."
"I understand. And yes, there are plenty of fuck boy athletes, but I'm not one of them."
You bite your bottom lip to quell a skeptical smirk, noting that his gaze drops down to your mouth for several seconds before he continues speaking.
"Can I tell you a little bit about myself?" he asks, finally dragging his gaze back up to your eyes.
"Sure."
"I'm an introverted bookworm who doesn't really like to party," he states, echoing your earlier words. "I spend most of my time at football practice, working out, watching game film, and studying the playbook. Once my classes start, I'll be studying for those, as well. You can usually find me at my apartment or the football facility, which is a five minute drive from my apartment. Occasionally I do something wild like eat at a restaurant, browse a bookstore, or play blackjack at a casino."
You raise an eyebrow, and he chuckles before responding.
"I'm not a gambling addict or anything like that. I don't play very often, but when I do, I win more than I lose." You can't help but smile at his cocky tone as he continues. "I also enjoy playing chess, collecting graphic t-shirts, and reading about plus watching pretty much anything related to how the universe works, hence me nerding out over your Crab nebula puzzle. Physics is my fav subject." He gives you a big grin. "Am I boring you yet?"
"Not yet," you mutter.
"I also enjoy building LEGO sets which are basically just 3D versions of jigsaw puzzles." You stare at each other for several seconds before he speaks up again. "If you get to know me, you'll realize I'm not a stereotypical jock."
Holy shit, he's smooth, you think to yourself, wondering if his earnest expression is real or fake. Prob fake as fuck, you seethe; time to set him straight. "Listen, I'm not gonna jump in bed with you, okay?" you snap. "There are plenty of other women on this campus who'd be DTF if you flash that smile at 'em. Why waste time with me?"
"Because I'm not looking for a quick fuck. I'm looking for someone I can vibe with."
"Running game on me is not gonna work, sweetie," you snort. "You're good at it, don't get me wrong, but I see right through that shit."
"Look, I know you've had some bad experiences, but I swear I'm not running game. Don't punish me for some other guys' sins."
You stare at him without speaking, trying not to show any emotion as he continues.
"Plus, you're the one who keeps mentioning sex," he states matter-of-factly. "I'd just like to get to know you."
"You're right," you mumble, caught somewhere between admiration and aggravation that he's managed to get the upper hand in the conversation; time to put him on the back foot. "That was very presumptuous of me. You're clearly not attracted to me, so I apologize for jumping to that conclusion."
"Okay, that's not true and you know it," he mutters.
"Meaning?"
He runs a hand through his hair before answering. "Meaning … I'm very attracted to you, but I'm not just looking for sex. Does that make sense?"
"No."
His laugh caresses you like a physical touch, and you squirm in your seat, exasperated at the effect he has on you.
"You're really not making this easy," he grins.
"I don't owe you easy," you scoff, biting the inside of your cheek to keep from returning his grin.
"You're absolutely right," he states as he stands up, throwing a quick glance at the table where his friends are sitting before returning his gaze to you. "You don't owe me anything," he continues, smiling as he plucks his sunglasses from the neckline of his t-shirt and slides them on; he waits several seconds -- like he's waiting for you to say something -- before spinning around and heading back to his bros.
He takes three steps before you call his name, your pulse hammering when he turns around and removes his sunglasses before locking eyes with you; you stand up and take a small step in his direction, every pleasure point in your body throbbing in unison when he quickly closes the distance with two long strides, looking down into your upturned face. A thrill shoots through you at how much taller he is than you. Focus! you think to yourself, swallowing hard and licking your lips before speaking.
"Ummm, do you have any plans for this Friday?"
"Not yet," he grins. "What do you have in mind?"
"I have no idea," you admit. "Maybe just grab ice cream or lunch or something?"
"Why don't we exchange numbers then we can decide later?"
"Okay," you mutter, feeling a little lightheaded as y'all exchange numbers.
He eventually slides his phone back in the pocket of his shorts and gives you a cheeky grin. "Just so you know, I don't have sex on the first date," he says, gracing you with another deep laugh that sizzles your nerve endings as your mouth drops open in shock. "Just kidding," he chuckles.
"You better be kidding," you warn in a playful voice. "This is just a friendly hang-out, right? Not a date."
"Of course, very presumptuous of me to call it a date." He gives you a wink before sliding his sunglasses back on.
His wink hits you in all the right places, and you quickly slide your sunglasses on to mask your reaction. "Totally presumptuous," you grumble, matching his grin before spinning around and heading toward the parking lot; you take about a dozen steps before throwing a look over your shoulder, a jolt of heat rushing through you when you see him still watching you. "Fuck," you mutter under your breath, picking up your pace as you head toward your car. "What have I got myself into?"
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
"Y/n?"
Gina's voice snaps you out of your flashback. "Yeah?"
"Girl, you must've been having a spicy daydream because you were damn near drooling!" she chortles.
"Just thinking about when Joe and I first met," you grin, heading to the fridge to pull the frosting out. "Let me get these cupcakes frosted then I'll help you set up a little tablescape for your V Day dinner."
"Martha Stewart ain't got nothing on you," she giggles.
"Damn right," you laugh, grabbing your piping bag and dropping a star tip in before letting your mind wander, a sizzle of anticipation running through you as you think about the night to come.

'Did Timothée Chalamet get y/n y/ln a role in 'Little Women'?'
By Bridget Thomas
Tumblr media
As previously reported by various outlets, actress y/n y/ln has been cast as the youngest March sister for yet another remake of "Little Women", expected to be premiered by the end of next year. However, we can't help but wonder, how did y/n manage to get a role alongside actors of such high caliber, such as Meryl Streep and Best Actress Nominee Saoirse Ronan?
Despite the success of movies such as Supercut and The Hating Game, y/n's acting skills cannot even begin to compare to those of her co-stars, she's a romcom actress, and she's supposed to stay that way. But as Ringo Starr once sung: "I get by with a little help from my friends" and y/n is no exception.
Timothée Chalamet, Greta Gerwig's other main muse, has Hollywood eating out of the palm of his hand, and his influence goes a long way. So much so, that he was able to secure Amy's role for new friend (possibly new something else) y/n y/ln.
Right after they were seen mingling at a party in Paris with y/n's boyfriend (probably soon to be ex) Charles Leclerc, y/n got the call that they decided to give her the role.
Don't we all want a boyfriend who uses nepotism to our benefit?
Seriously, though, how does y/n manage to get this heartthrobs to spare a glance her way and do this stuff in her name? Somebody call the Winchester Brothers, we might have a witchcraft case right in front of our eyes.

'Victoria Presley: I still miss my best friend, but all she did was use me.'
By Daniel Gomez
Tumblr media
After staying away from social media and her job for a month and a half, beauty influencer Victoria Presley is back and she's not afraid of anything. Not even legal repercussions.
Back in July, Victoria received a 'Cease and Desist' letter from none other than former best friend y/n y/ln, demanding she stopped talking about her in public and to news outlets. This sparked the rumors that Presley had been selling her secrets to tabloids and was the one to reveal the engagement secret alongside actress Mia Kim, Aidan Kim's sister.
Victoria immediately removed herself from the narrative, deeply hurt by her ex-bestie's actions. Now, after gathering her thoughts and recovering from being stabbed in the back, she's giving us this exclusive interview.
"I can't help but miss y/n, she was my best friend for so long. But all she did was use me." Victoria is still in disbelief of y/n's actions, after giving her all her love and support. "I let her live in my house for months, and one day she leaves without any explanation. All to meet that Formula One guy."
Victoria has expressed her discontent with y/n's relationship with Charles Leclerc several times, arguing he is one of the main reasons y/n cut all ties with her and not the rumors that she revealed y/n's secrets to tabloids.
"He changed her for worse. Their relationship is so toxic, they breakup and get back together again and again, and they're just looking for ways to use the other's reputation for their benefit."
However, Victoria is certain the relationship won't last much longer, since y/n has her sight set on co-star Timothée Chalamet. "y/n has liked him for a while. When the rumors of his relationship with Kylie Jenner came out, she assured me she could steal him away with a flick of her hand."
Meanwhile, Victoria is focusing on her beauty line and its evergrowing sales. "I'm competing directly with Rare Beauty and Fenty. I'm in the big leagues, the way I deserve to be."

By Paul Dean
Tumblr media
Aidan Kim fans won't have to wait until October 5th anymore since their idol has decided to move the release date for his debut album forward by one month.

Monza, Italy, September 3rd.
1...2...3... deep breath in, 4...5...6, breathe out.
You repeat the process five times until your heart has set in your chest and isn't trying to break free anymore. Until you've stopped squeezing your thighs with your palms and you can keep your eyes open without feeling like the red decoration is stabbing your eyeballs.
It's good that you can manage your anxiety before it turns into panic. You're still embarrassed about The Spain Incident, although neither Charles nor Carlos fault you for it at all. Still, every now and then, their panicked faces flashback in your mind and you feel sorry for them all over again.
You don't want this weekend to turn into The Monza Incident. Not when Charles' contract renewal was announced a few hours ago and he's on Pole Position, this weekend has to be perfect. Or as perfect as possible, for your boyfriend.
Boyfriend.
The weight of the word has multiplied by a thousand in your mind. Silly, when you really think about it. But palpable in a way that has butterflies flying around your stomach every time you think about the word and Charles' smiling face appears in your mind.
He's your boyfriend and you're his girlfriend, and this was a mutual agreement you reached with panic still holding you by the throat, only soothed by Charles' soft lips against your temple and his warm hands rubbing your skin.
You agreed to come to this Grand Prix because it will be the last one for you for a while. Filming for Little Women starts soon, and though they have a couple of races in the States, your schedule can be a little unpredictable. Also, you're hoping to score more roles soon.
You breathe again, deep enough that your lungs ache and lightheadedness threatens to rise through your body. You're overwhelming yourself, again.
According to the world, you’re not skilled enough to be in a movie with Saoirse and Timothée and should give up the role to someone who actually deserves it. Which you won’t do, of course. That someone who deserves it is yourself. It has taken a lot of pep talks in the bathroom mirror to brainwash yourself into believing it, but you’re getting there.
Plus, there are more things to worry about with Victoria back on her bullshit and Aidan's album coming out in two days. There are so many things to fix again, just when you thought you were getting there. Of course the two people that hate you most in the world have to mess with you again.
"Already here?" Carlos asks the second he crosses the door to the Suite. "It's way early."
"Good morning to you too," you let the air out of your already burning lungs and smile at Carlos. "I have nowhere else to be."
You could be at the Paddock Club, mingling with whatever celebrity or rich local is there. Or even visiting McLaren, since Lando offered to 'show you the garage', something Charles didn't like, of course. The secret of your newly earned girlfriend-boyfriend titles is one you try to keep close to your heart.
As if that has worked before.
A wave of anxiety runs down the back of your neck when you remember the tweet you saw this morning about a Deuxmoi tip on Charles and you. What could the exact price be, to reveal your relationship to the world?
"Have you had breakfast? Looks like you're going to throw up," Carlos says, sitting in the sofa opposite yours.
It's at least the fifth time he's told you that during the weekend. You know he does it out of a place of concern, but it still rubs you the wrong way. You also need to look perfect, not like you're going to throw up.
"I had breakfast back at the hotel, it's just the lighting."
"Sure?"
"I'm fine, Carlos. How are you?"
Carlos shrugs, he's not being the center of attention this weekend despite this being another home race for the team. "Good."
"Didn't you have to be at the meeting today?" you question, although it's obvious that by his getting there just now, he didn't.
"Had my PR reminders yesterday. Charles is different."
Of course. He has to know what he's allowed to say about his renewal and what he should not speak on at all.
Your own team advised you not to let yourself be seen at Monza. Mildred would have pulled you out of the plane if it had been up to her, and Walter would have helped her hold you hostage until the weekend was over.
They're both trying to find out about the Deuxmoi pictures too, although you doubt they can reach an agreement of any kind with whoever holds them to stop them from calling People Magazine up.
This whole avoiding being seen thing makes you feel wrong. As if you were doing something bad with Charles instead of just finally letting the love you've felt for him for months show. You hate it.
You're wrong to compare your current situation with your past ones. Aidan was your first really public romantic relationship, but before that, you didn't hide your partners either. Of course you weren't that famous, but even then, you didn't entertain the thought of scurrying around like criminals.
"He'll be fine, y/n," Carlos adds, looking at the way your foot keeps stomping the floor, like you're some kind of hyperactive bunny. "He's on Pole. You can pray for Max's downfall, though, maybe that'll help."
"I don't pray for people's downfall," you click your tongue, crossing your legs to stop the tic.
Karma and all that.
"Maybe you should." Carlos winks at you, and your conversation is finished as Charles leaves his meeting.
You can tell something's off just from the way his shoulders tense, but he smiles at you the moment your eyes meet.
"Everything okay?" you ask before he leans down to reach your height as you sit and pecks your lips.
"Yes, everything's good."
He's lying.
─────────
What was the point of coming to Monza if you're only watching the race through the screens?
You don't think the sun has touched your face at all since you got to the circuit, and you really want to be out there. But you stay put in your seat as the formation lap occurs right outside of the Suite.
It will make no difference, though, Charles is focused on the race, as he should be, rather than whether you're watching him through the TV.
Soon enough you know what will make a difference.
It's some kind of miracle that Charles has managed to regain the P1 position after the disastrous pit stop Ferrari put him through, and maybe Carlos was actually praying for Red Bull's downfall since Max has his very first DNF of the season and Checo can't get past George in P3.
Charles is going to win Monza again.
The decision making tree branches in front of you in a matter of seconds, people at the Suite are already talking excitedly and someone asks if you want to go down, there are four laps left.
You get up from your seat, aware that if life was anything like that videogame you played a couple times on the set of Parisian Valentine with your co-star, the "This action will have consequences" legend would appear on the screen right now.
You follow the Ferrari worker out, but even between the excitement and celebrations, you manage to hear what the PR Manager really thinks of your presence in the Paddock.
"She’s such a PR nightmare,"
She switches to Italian when your eyes fly to her face. And you can only wonder what cruel yet entirely accurate thing she said.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
It's worse than a nightmare. It feels like the apocalypse all over again. And the weight of the world is back on your shoulders, feeling like you're messing up what was a weekend out of a dream for Charles.
You flashback to Monaco and the way Mati pulled you out of your head and locked your phone in her purse. You wish she was here more with each passing second. You cannot tear your eyes away from every single tweet speculating about your presence, about your relationship, about your intentions. It's overwhelming.
But Charles' happiness is what matters. He's absolutely ecstatic, even after the mishaps during the interviews where his PR training had to kick in and lead reporters back to Formula 1 related questions.
The thought that maybe you should have tried to make friends with more people occurs to you when you arrive at the celebration in the private club and Charles is dragged away from you. He tries his best to hold on to your hand, but the truth is people want to be with him and not you, so you let him take the spotlight he deserves and enjoy it.
"So, are you and Charles dating, then? Didn't you use to be engaged?"
You half-smile at the girl who just asked you the question, so boldly it takes you aback. But you guess her eyes are so bright from how much alcohol there is in her system, she's bound to be direct with liquid courage running through her veins. She's pretty in that dark hair, dark eyes way that has you momentarily doubting your own looks.
The extra heartbeat that takes you to reply, has her eyes shifting around the room before settling on Charles, who is finally walking back to your side.
Your boyfriend hands you a drink and smiles at the dark-haired girl and her friend, politely. "Are you having a good time?" the question is mostly directed towards you, but both girls jump at the chance of saying they're having the time of their lives and congratulating Charles for such an epic win. But they prompt you to join the conversation a few seconds later, so you're grateful for it either way.
There's a song in Spanish playing on the speakers and Charles is doing his best to sing the words while encouraging you to move to the beat with him. With his arms around you, things feel a little lighter, the whole in your chest that anxiety carved out is slowly filling with the love you feel for him, and the happiness of the day outshines the darkness of the thoughts in the back of your mind.
That is, at least, until the first notes of 'In Your Pocket' replace the previous song, after the DJ announces it's a special request. It's a remix, obviously, so people can dance to it, but a few of them have stopped moving altogether just to be a little less discreet about eyeing you.
"C'est pas amusant," you hear Charles say to one of his friends, who is hiding his mouth behind a tall glass of alcohol, his eyes still betray his enjoyement.
"It's fine," you squeeze Charles' arm, trying your best to smile although you're being put in the spotlight and there's nearly nothing worse than being the butt of a cruel joke. "It's just a song."
You wondered many times what those surrounding Charles thought of you. They didn't know you, after all. His brothers were nice to you when you saw them around the Paddock, and it wasn't like you'd hung around the rest of his friends. Did they mock him when tabloids called him a homewrecker? Or did they believe he'd just embarked on what seemed to be a dead-end relationship?
"I'm sorry, soleil, they're just— they're idiots," Charles adds, his hand reaching for yours. He looks genuinely upset and you can't help but hate whoever requested the song a little more for spoiling Charles' mood rather than for making fun of you.
"Charlie, it's okay, I've been through worse," your reassurance doesn't soothe him, so you squeeze his hand and he presses his lips to your temple. "I'd rather listen to Bad Bunny or something, though."
Charles laughs and pulls you out of the dancefloor, to a more private part of the club where you both can catch your breath and share a few kisses, unafraid of people staring at you.
Tumblr media
New York, United States, September 7th.
You know you're in trouble when Mildred calls tells you that you need to be at her office ASAP. She also used that condescending 'I'm the adult' tone that send you back to when you were fifteen and got in trouble with your mother, so it's another indication that she's angry at you.
Of course you know why, the words 'PR nightmare' haven't left your brain in days. And the moment you set foot in New York, Mildred was all over you about every single thing that was being said about the Monza Incident—aka seeing your boyfriend like any normal person would.
"This isn't ideal," Mildred says after a while, she has been explaining the public's perception of you for the past half hour. "It's like you—"
"Like I fucked up?" you cut her off, squeezing your knees to stop from biting your nails.
"We were rebuilding your brand, y/n. People think you waited for things to die a little so you could go public with Charles. Aidan's new album is not helping your case."
If you thought 'In Your Pocket' was bad, nothing compared to the rest of the songs. Some in which he called you a list of things including a homie-hopper, drama starter and said you settled for a 'bum' when you could have had a 'rockstar'.
"How is that my fault?" you don't intend to sound so whiny, but you can't help it. Why are Aidan's actions always your fault somehow?
"People are talking more about how you are dating a Ferrari Driver after spending months saying you weren't, rather than the fact that you landed an incredibly important role."
"We haven't told anyone we're dating,"
Mildred rolls her eyes despite her best efforts to remain professional. "Do you really think that's necessary?"
"What do you suggest we do?" you ask, knowing you won't like the answer.

Man, there is just something so fascinating to me about the Boat Boys because I think their relationship has always been akin to like...the rockiest of waters (pun intended). I've just been thinking so much about it...
In 3rd Life, funnily enough, one of their first interactions was just them riding a boat together. In Last Life, Joel ended Etho's series. Even before being soulbonded they've had that sort of "me and the bestie/can't stand his fakeass" dynamic.
If anything was evident in Double Life, it's that they had fun together. It's safe to say they probably weren't the most loyal to one another, mainly due to Etho and his Bdubs withdrawal, but it would be wrong to say that they didn't enjoy each other's company. They both have the urge to cause chaos, but one's more upfront about it and the other is more subtle. They complimented each other and balanced out the other, and when the time came around, they died together poetically.
Limited Life was definitely...a season for Joel and Etho interactions. This season was filled with animosity, and constant jabs, and bitter callbacks to a past life. Boat Boys this season were just killing or insulting each other left and right, not finding a moment of comfort or piece around each other.
Then there's Secret Life. This one in particular makes me kind of insane because there's both the animosity and bite to their words when they're interacting with one another, but there was also sincerity. For a brief moment, these two were able to express genuine care that they still had for one another, and that's just crazy to me. Both Joel and Etho's characters don't know sincerity and always deal more mushy, heartfelt things awkwardly, so this was CRAZY for me. And it always hits harder for me because I've always just imagined Joel and Etho's relationship to just be a very strong, platonic bond. They have people who they are definitely closer to; Joel has people like Lizzie, Grian and Jimmy, and Etho has people like Bdubs, Cleo, and Tango. Those are people that they tend to naturally gravitate towards, but the two of them will always end up crossing paths. And well, that's what being soulmates is really about, right? It's not really about romance; it's about being bound to find this particular person in every universe, no matter what.
Out of all the people on the server, I never expected it to be them. Etho and Joel, the two guys who never seemed to be able to let go of their soul bond when everyone else had moved on to some capacity.
It's like how Martyn never left winter. It's like how Jimmy and Tango will always be each others' ranchers even though they no longer reside at the ranch. It's like how Scar and Grian know monopolies better than anyone. Cleo will always be caught up on BigB's betrayal and Lizzie will remain bitter about Cleo's destructive tendencies towards her home. Impulse will never let go of Bdubs' betrayal. It's the way Scott seems somewhat attached to literally ALL of his exes. The lifers just cannot be normal about each other and every new season adds to their insanity regarding one another.
If you've reached the end of this, I commend you. I'm not adding anything new to this conversation, I'm just yapping and blabbling about the Minecraft series that changed my life and altered my brain chemistry. These worms eat at my neurons everyday and I just HAVE to tell somebody, ANYBODY about my insanity.

So if Delta is JD's ex, then there's actually a pretty good chance she recognized Brach, or at least recognized the family resemblance. Out of all of Branch's brothers, JD is the one that looks the msot like Branch, almost identical really if not for the fact he is clearly bigger, older, and bad green hair with a lighter blue skin tone in comparison to Branch's dark navy hair and desaturated blue. I wonder if that affects how she handles the whole "Pop Trolls coming in and actively insulting her and her people with a musical number" thing, especially when you can tell that Branch is the most reluctant to be doing that and actively tried to argue against it.
I also get the feeling that JD and Delta may end up being besties or the kind of exes that still love each other but not romantically. And Delta is a very pretty mare so she got a lot of suitors herself, you can bet JD is gonna vet them for her to make sure they're worthy of her, even of he knows Delta can easily handle herself
When she first met Branch, she did think there was a resemblance with her ex, but didn't put it together because of one thing. JD thought he was dead. Shortly after their break up, JD went back to the troll tree to see his brothers, only to find a desolate and sickly tree.
When he came back to Lonesome Flats, he was devastated, thinking that his entire family was eaten. He would've lost all of his color if she hadn't been there to help build him back up. They may no longer have romantic love, but they do have a strong platonic love.
Now, JD does keep an eye on the trolls that show interest in his best friend, but they're nothing to worry about. It's the ones that show interest in him that can be problematic. Unfortunately, JD is a magnet for the troublemakers, Delta already arrested 5 of them. This concerns his brothers

Same bestie 💜
@chiliger
-----
Dogma doesn't understand this.
He knows that his brothers are enjoying the lights, the blaring music, the smell of regulation cologne mixed with natborn colognes and perfumes, but he is just...
His brain seems to have been left on the shuttle they took hours ago, the drink in his hand warm from being held so tight. He can't handle looking anywhere else than at the small patch of carpet somewhere in front of him, he's sure he'll vomit or something and that would ruin their time off, so the carpet patch is his best friend right now. He blinks eventually, and the lights and blaring music are gone when they open, the cool air from outside making Dogma blink rapidly a few times to fix his dry eyes. Tup and Hardcase are singing something, the two definitely drunk as they sway back and forth waiting for their taxi, and Dogma feels a bit guilty that they seem to have so much fun while he's just quietly in his own world.
Ever helpful Jesse points out the taxi with a nudge to his side, Dogma blinking dry eyes and looking away from the random neon sign he'd been looking at. His ears are still ringing from the loud music as they're driven back to their temporary quarters, everything so bright as he becomes a support to keep Hardcase up long enough to get inside their room. The queasiness from before begins to lurk under the surface, Dogma hoping the longer he ignores it the better he'll feel as he slips into his evening wear and washes his face.
He nearly jumps when something slips over his ears, and the distant ringing seems to stop at once. He's wearing some of the headgear the heavy gunners wore, a grinning Hardcase saying something that Dogma thankfully cannot hear as he slumps slightly against the sink, stomach beginning to settle once more. Fives is shooing Tup away as he pulls together a few mattresses, and Dogma is surprised that he's as coordinated as he is despite drinking the rest of the 501st under the table without a blink. The second he's done Hardcase flops on the bed, laughing about something Dogma can't hear as Tup ungracefully joins his side, long hair obscuring his face as he rests his head on Hardcase's chest with a yawn. Fives and Jesses are talking about something when Dogma decides to move his legs to join the others, the lights dimming as he settles against Tup with his own yawn.
He's out by the time the lights are fully out, his brothers draping a blanket over him as soft conversation fills the night air.

Maybe another siren shadow milk post? On reader cookie and siren S.Ms relationship and what shenanigans they get up to?
Like, Reader Cookie would be sailing and out of nowhere shadow milk jumps in like "Whats up bbg?" And they talk?
Not doing a prompt for this one but this gives me an excuse to ramble about the lore of the Beast Hunters AU!! Starting off with Shadow Milk and Reader's relationship.
Their relationship is rather... hm, I'd say complicated? For one, they're bound together by their contract. But on the other hand... well, Shadow Milk has kept Reader safe from more than just the Licorice Sea, hell, maybe he's even fallen in love with his little Songbird. As for Reader's feelings? Well, they consider him to be their closest companion in some kind of way.
Now, onto World building! ahem...
Long ago, monsters roamed and ruled over the Dessert world, terrorizing Cookies and the like... That was, until five Cookies with great power were baked into existence by the witches. These Heroes wielded a great power baked into the Soul Jam that they wielded, but as always... Great Power begets corruption.
One by one, the heroes succumbed to and fused with the darkness within the Soul Jam. No longer were they cookies, but beasts. The lights that remained from the remnants of the Soul Jam quickly split off back to the Witches, who then commanded them to find new heroes to defend against the beasts.
And so, the Lights did. They found new Heroes, and thus the Great Beast War began... And by the end of it, the Legendary Beasts were sealed away. But, something happened to the Heroes as well. In order to gain the upper hand during the war, they had fused with their lights.
Now more like spiritual protectors, they guided their newly formed kingdoms and territories as if they were kings and queens. Some of them were more present in the lives of their cookies, while others took a more observant and guiding role.
But just a few decades later or so, the seal upon the Legendary Beasts weakened... Allowing them to escape back into the Dessert World to reek havoc once more. Seeing this, the heroes set out to find a new set of saviors for cookie kind... Most of them, anyways.
So far, only two of the five have selected heroes...
At least they have friends to help them with their journey, right?
( In case you're wondering, the selected are Gingerbrave(White Lily)(and he's bringing his bestie's Strawberry and Wizard) and Princess Cookie(Hollyberry)(Knight Cookie of course, is tagging along with her), Pure Vanilla, Dark Cacao and Golden Cheese haven't selected their selected yet... Though rumor has it that Dark Cacao had selected someone but revoked his selection.)
And now, onto what the Beasts are!
As we already know, Shadow Milk is a Siren, but what about the others?
Well, so far I have Eternal Sugar as a harpy, Burning Spice as some kind of insect-cookie fusion thingy and Silent Salt as a spirit of sorts. I haven't figured out what kind of Monster Mystic Flour would have become yet... Maybe a Dragon? Who knows.
And that's pretty much all for this post.-
Ah wait, Gingerbrave lore.
So, in this AU Gingerbrave is White Lily's son! She created him mainly to see if she could but also to eventually wield the light of Freedom in her place as a successor. The main reason I did this was because Gingerbrave is very freedom coded to me, and he's silly.
Also he might be part faerie??? I dunno, he's been Fourteen mentally and physically for quite a while though.
I'll probably expand on the Gingerlore later though.
and now that's all! also, drop who you think the other heroes are gonna select because I think it'd be interesting to see who you all pick.
