Summary: When you catch sight of the newest trend going around you know you’re all but bound to at least try it, it was harmless anyway. What could possibly stem from something so little?
----
You wouldn’t describe yourself as someone who was regularly paranoid, but recently you've been more than a little on edge. You’d given the man at the market the benefit of the doubt, chalking his appearance up to going to the marketplace when the weather was the most reasonable- like you’d been doing, but that doesn’t explain the Suvs.
You don’t know how long they’ve been following you for, you’d been so stuck in your own world that you’d barely been paying attention to your surroundings but after Saturday you’ve been more cautious of your surroundings and that’s when you noticed the black Suv.
You don’t know if it’s the same one every time, they’ve always kept a far enough distance and you haven't been able to catch a license plate but they appear every so often when you go out. The windows are tinted far too dark to be legal so you can’t see inside but you occasionally find them parked outside of buildings you frequent and it’s starting to worry you.
You don’t want to worry your friends or your mom who would buy a ticket out there first thing though, so you keep to yourself and try to keep a distance from the cars and the marketplace (it’s a devastating loss to not have Gladys’ pastries on hand)
On top of that, everyone has been on edge because of the disappearance of most of the Avengers. As far as you know, Stark, Clint, Banner, and that Spider kid are the only ones still in New York which has civilians asking questions about where the others are and why they left.
The anxiety from the lack of heroes has everyone grilling the government for answers, especially considering the fact that the crime rate has gone up just from petty criminals getting too cocky. Due to the constant heat The government has been under, they stated that they’ll issue a public service announcement in a week to explain the situation and you can practically feel the country buzzing with anticipation.
The situation makes you think of Nat and you wonder if her “not FBI job” has something to do with this and is the reason why she’s disappeared. You hope she knows wherever she is that you would’ve understood if she’d just explained the situation to you- but maybe she couldn’t. Maybe she was under some kind of NDA that could put her in danger.
Despite avoiding the marketplace you still get the feeling that you’re being watched and it makes you uneasy. You feel like you’re hallucinating with how often you see shadows moving somewhere nearby. You’re never able to catch a glimpse of anyone who might resemble the market man but the fear is enough to have you staying a few nights at your friend's house.
The Suv’s don’t appear for a while after the move and it allows you a small moment of reprieve. You push the lingering feeling of constant observance to the back of your mind despite your brain telling you to be on guard.
The stress of the situation is so tremendous you don’t even realize you’ve been forgetting to leave voicemails for Nat until your mom calls asking why you haven’t called her in a while. You don’t bring up the stalkers to avoid giving her a heart attack but you do tell her about the amount of stress you’ve been under and the toll it’s been taking on you.
It feels so good to talk about it that you don’t even realize you’re crying until your mother's concerned voice is comforting you through the speaker. God, it was like the universe couldn’t give you a break lately. You hope whatever they’re putting you through all of this for is worth it.
“Come home for a while, Y/n. it sounds like you need a break, I’ll take care of you.” The dismissal of her offer is on the tip of your tongue but the more you mull it over the more you think it might be a good idea. With the city on edge, the growing crime rate, and your new potential stalkers, getting away from the city is probably the best thing you could do right now.
Much to your mother's surprise, you agree and her excitement at having you come home has you smiling on your end of the receiver. The two of you spend the next hour looking for an affordable last minute and you find a plane that leaves in two days that the two of you agree on. It’s probably not nearly enough appropriate notice for time off but your boss agrees anyway and within the hour you’ve got plans to spend a week at your mother's out of town.
It’s the first vacation you’ve taken in a while and even if it was just going home you find yourself more excited than you’d been in at least a month. You hadn’t been this excited since-
Nat. You hadn’t been this excited since you were supposed to meet Nat.
It probably didn’t matter to her that you were going out of town, it wasn’t like she was getting your voicemails anyway but- what if she showed up while you were gone? You shake your head, the possibility of that was slim to none and if she did come back while you were gone she’d just have to wait like she’d made you wait.
Still, she deserved to know about the kid on the skateboard you watched run into a pole earlier today, at least. You listen for the tale-tell sound of the beep after the long too-familiar ringing and you find yourself subconsciously smiling as you tell her random snippets from your week.
The breakfast your friend treated you to, the new show you started, the fair that got canceled due to raccoons breaking in to eat all the cotton candy. You avoid talking about the stalkers like you’d done with everyone else but you frown when the news channel starts covering another attempted bank robbery.
Despite your own safety being in jeopardy you can’t help but worry for her wherever she may be, causing you to voice the thought, the humor in your tone replaced with a solemn resolve
“wherever you are… I hope you’re safe.” You shake your head, attempting to clear your mind from the restless thoughts in your mind “Anyway, sorry I know that was a lot- all that to say I miss you and I love you. Bye!”
You don’t even realize what you’ve said until 10 seconds later and you frantically press whichever number was supposed to delete the message.
Shit.
It was such a force of habit to end your phone calls with an I love you. You can’t believe you almost confessed to Nat over the phone. Moreover, you’re freaked out by how much the words didn’t feel like a lie. If you were honest you’d been avoiding putting a label on your emotions because you were scared of how serious they were getting but apparently your brain had already decided for you.
Love.
You loved Nat.
You Love Nat.
Fuck.
Your mind reels with the newfound discovery and you’re grateful you deleted the message before it would be stuck in her voicemail for her to one day hear. Your head's a mess as you set your phone down on the counter and go to pack up your stuff, you had a trip to get ready for and a relationship to overanalyze to try and pinpoint when you and Nat had gone from total strangers to you being in love with her.
It all made sense now, the heartache, the worrying, the underlying tension between the two of you
It was just your luck that you’d discover you love her when you can’t even tell her. You’re so in your head with your emotions and figuring out what to pack that you don’t even register the sound of your phone’s female electronic voice as it declares
“Voicemail sent”
Pt.29
A/n: Classic mistake, Y/n, I’m sure everyone’s done that! Don’t worry it’s not like she can hear your voicemails or anything…or uhhh ~ Starry

This is a psa to all of Vera’s family members:
She has like three different performances this spring and has intentionally told you about none of them, so I will instead:
Spring Show: the Midtown arts programs are performing, she’s in the ballet program! She’s dancing Firebird in the pas de Duex where the bird gets captured, it’s her all time favorite, and in our class’s group routine, which is to Sunlight by Hozier and she helped choreograph!
Talent show: school talent show, she and our friend Ivan are doing acrobatics(he does circus) and have been working on it since November!
Spring Musical: she got roped in by the stage manager and now she’s running lighting! She says it doesn’t count because she isn’t on stage but it’s something she got really into and enjoys!!
This has been a Public Service Announcement
@goddessof-death @not-a-poser @white-wolf-actually @peterparkermans @azalea-romanoff @a-simpfortessa-lesbriean @vpotts-official @becca-barnes-official please add people I don’t have tags for

⚠️ PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT 📣
📡 COURTESY OF YOUR GENERAL 🪖
Omega Helldivers, it has been brought to the attention of Super Earth High Command that certain officers aboard Super Destroyers have been spreading false rumors regarding the presence of a long-extinct alien species from the southern rim of the galaxy.
Due to the Omega Sector’s location along the southern rim, I wanted to inform you that all rumors being presented are certifiably false, and any officers or Helldivers found spreading such rumors should be reported to the nearest Democracy Officer or to Super Earth High Command directly.
Truth is a pillar of Democracy, your effort is integral to maintaining its stability!
[This concludes Super Earth High Command’s Public Service Announcement.]

⚠️ SCAM WARNING FOR DISNEY+ USERS ⚠️
just went to log in to Disney+ on desktop for the first time, googled 'disney plus' (because i'm old like that) and nearly got caught in a scam so PLEASE READ THIS AND STAY SAFE OUT THERE!
right now when you google 'disney plus' the FIRST RESULT (which is also a SPONSERED result) looks like the legit website but IT IS A SCAM. here's what you will see:
^ that result and ALL of its links lead to a scam website. if you click you may be fooled, as i almost was. this is what you will see:
^ looks like a legit login window BUT LOOK AT THE URL!
^ THAT IS SCAMMER URL NONSENSE. real urls don't have all that shit, as you will see. but if you put your login and click Next, here's what you will see:
^ it asks for your password. now, i did this with my actually account but afterwards i checked and you can do it with a fake email and fake password because none of this info actually matters they just want you to click this Next so you will reach the scammer page which is:
^ ⚠️ NO LEGIT SUBSCRIPTION WEBSITE ASKS YOU TO LOGIN THEN IMMEDIATELY ASKS YOU TO CONFIRM YOUR PAYMENT DETAILS. THIS SHIT IS A SCAM. ⚠️
Back out of the site and return to the google search results, scroll down to the SECOND search result, which is the REAL one, and this is what you will see:
^ THESE are the real links.
^ THIS is what the real log-in landing page looks like.
^ THIS is the real log-in page. NOTE HOW SIMILAR IT IS TO THE SCAMMER PAGE but also note the differences: the REAL site has extra info and links in the footer, but more importantly the URL is simple and not stuffed with scammer nonsense.
For this to be happening with Disney is BAD - they're a huge company and don't want this kind of bad shit happening to their customers or for their name to be fucked with.
but also: WTF GOOGLE?? the FIRST search result - a SPONSERED result - is a SCAM on one of the biggest streaming services out there. GEt YOUR SHIT TOGETHER GOOGLE.
and everyone please stay safe! spread the word! add info if this is happening to other streaming services too!

Just want to share this post again, on how to update your settings so you can see mature content (which is like 98% of what I post lol).
I’ve had a few folx reach out to say that they’ve been missing my works and posts, so be sure to update your blog settings on desktop if you’re missing stuff. We should all be allowed to hoe freely and whenever we want 😤
Also, I encourage you to comment on or reblog the stories that you read. Serial liking is a huge bummer and makes it feel like our content is good enough to consume, but not good enough for you to take a quick moment to show some love. If you’re shy, drop an anon ask or a private DM. It really goes an incredibly long way in keeping our muses inspired, which only means more content for you, ja feel?!
P.S. My asks are always open for playing and hoeing around. Share your hoe thoughts on the CE babes! Screech at me about my stories or verses. Let’s have some fun! ❤️🙏🏻
