I didn’t dare to do anything. I had five pistols pointed at me, even though those people had an IQ of a shrimp.

Dertig jaar geleden: "Belladonna" van Hugo Claus
Nog in 1993 publiceert Claus de dichtbundel “De Sporen”. Volgens zijn eigen zeggen heeft hierin “de lyriek van de jongeling die in de zandbak met een meisje in Tirolerjurk speelt, plaatsgemaakt voor een zeker wellustig masochisme in het licht van de dood”. Hij vindt trouwens dat het “een wet” is dat de grootste liefdesdichters in werkelijkheid flauwe minnaars zijn en hij citeert als voorbeeld…

Guys imagine, non mc is their soulmate, the one who owns half of their soul in every Life time. But they don't know that and forget their love for non mc and they fall in love with mc instead of her in every life time.
It's because non mc is cursed by Astra (instead of Zayne) so she suffers in every life watching them fall in love with mc. Like if she works as a hunter Xavier notices her and feels like she's someone that he should be devoted to but the curse activates and blocks his mind so he goes to mc.
If she works at Akso hospital as a nurse , as much as she tries to engage with Zayne he won't talk to her and have lunch with mc or hang out with her. But at night he suffers from nightmares where a faceless girl walks with him and dies at the end so horribly by his evol that he gets reminded of you.
If she is a secretary to Rafayel he playfully chats with her, hangs out with her- hell he won't even notice that his soul is responding to her because of the bond like a clueless fish, so when he sees mc he immediately forgot about her entirely .
If she is a sidekick to sylus, she slowly avoids him but like a fool when he looks at her she melts in his gaze knowing that she will be hurt when mc arrives. So she Just watches her dragon is loving another instead of his sorceress.
If she works at farspace fleet , yea Caleb is cold to her. But something in his body is always yearning for her. So she lets him, but when mc arrives she is thrown aside.
So when she finally ends that bond by cutting the red thread all of them feels like their heart gets crushed by the force only then their memories returns.
Xavier was killing wanderers as usual with mc but suddenly he fell down his knees and clutched his heart like his soul was tores into pieces. He starts to remember. The girl who died in his arms at Philos gifting him the star tassel , the girl who became a queen to feed his planet it was not mc it was her. The one he always looks at does not talk. His soulmate. So he rushes to her apartment only to find it empty. Why?
Zayne was working with his documents when suddenly his breath got hitched, his head felt like splitting. Slowly, steadily he sits on the chair gripping the edge of the table. Memories flood into his brain like a dam, he finally remembers the faceless girl in his dreams, the one died horribly at the tower by his evol, the one who symbolises his jasmine. Opening the door he rushes into the busy hallway to find her but bumps into Grayson. Zayne gripped his shoulders and asked about non mc but his heart got dropped when Grayson questioned him. "Who is non-mc? She's a nurse at Akso hospital? What are you saying Zayne there's no one working here in that name."
Rafayel was sitting by the beach to escape from Thomas, he looked at the sea and sighed softly. Suddenly he feels that. His bond disappeared suddenly, he got startled for a second so he called mc to check if she was ok. But to his surprise he didn't feel the bond when he talked to her. He suddenly groaned from the pain and gripped his hair. Back when the god of tides bonded to his priestess but forgots her when he met mc because of the curse and betrayed his homeland. He remembers that. He remembers non mc. He looked at Thomas who was running in his way. "Rafayel! Get up-" ,"where is non mc?" Thomas looked at him with a confused gaze, "what are you blabbering? Did you forget that we are hiring a secretary for you? Get up!"
Sylus walks into the mission with the twins behind them from the auction. He expects your presence to greet him when he comes back just like you always did. His eyes widened when he felt that his heart was splitting from the pain. The twins noticed this immediately and grabbed his shoulders. "Boss! Are you ok!?" Years of pain came to him, his sorceress, the curse, how he forgot his sorceress that he was searching for eons and gave his attention to someone else? His sorceress was always standing beside him but he only noticed that when you break the bond. "Luke, Kieran bring non mc to me", "Boss who is that?"
Now caleb. Alright, the colonel was at his home which was in skyhaven going through documents. He checked his phone every two minutes expecting a call or message from his new soldier but he didn't. That's when he felt the agonizing pain. He knows. He knows. He fucking finally remembers who was the girl besides him at his childhood when they were experimenting on him. Who was the girl that always holds his hand so he won't cry in his sleep. Who was the girl that he failed to protect when ever ripped you off from him. The next day he checked every possible place that you could be, but he couldn't find you. When he goes to your dorm he was surprised to find out that it was vacant for 2 months and no one's been there.
Why? What happened to non-mc?
She got erased from the universe. Because when she cuts the thread she knows that she won't be here anymore so to end this pain she does it.
Why? Love is always cruel to us?
So the roles got reversed.
Now they are the one who's with the memories of you, while you are playing the game as a player. Now in this life they are just a dating sim to you. But sometimes you notice that they don't talk about their scripted dialogues or how they look at you with the longing eyes. How they wanted to break off the fourth wall to touch you, to give you the love you deserve, wanting your forgiveness for making you wait for them. If this is their fate, they will definitely change it.
They will definitely break the fourth wall to bring you to their world, like before and gets their happy ending.
Can they?
This is just an idea that came randomly to me. So if any of you want to make a fic using this idea please do!!

Not so Artificial Intelligence Part 2
When Bruce finally managed to get the time to look at the file Danny had added to the bat computer, it was almost patrol, and the rest of the family was filling in to get ready to head out. Even Jason had shown up, but that was probably just because he was bribed by Alfred with leftovers from dinner. Bruce couldn’t really blame him, Alfred’s food was the best in the world, but he does wish that he would show up more often just to hang out with him and his siblings.
Bruce sat in the bat-chair, graciously labeled with a sticker from a recent prank by Stephanie. She had gone around and labeled everything in the bat cave, but added the bat suffix in front. It had taken forever to find most of them, but he allowed some of them to remain. 
Finding the new folder was easy, it was labeled FROM DANNY, and left in the middle of the screen. Clicking it open and sipping his fresh coffee he glanced at the first document. The folder was full of notes, pictures and videos, but all of the previews were white, green, or black. 
Bruce started to read through the document, and chocked on his coffee at the contents.
Hello Batman and family, I hope this reached you before they do. I didn’t bring this up just incase you knew and were supportive, but how you act and how contaminated you are I will assume you do not. There is a Government Law that declares any being that has come into contact with enough or creates ectoplasm as non-sentient and non-sapient, but at the same time malicious {Abbreviated the AEA}. We are to be turned over to the GIW to be experiment upon and exterminated. This is literal torture, and I have gathered as much evidence as me and my friends could without being caught. I beg you, please be careful if you decide to take these people down. From what is on here, I think that Lazarus Water is a form of corrupted ectoplasm. Also, anyone who has died and come back to life no matter what are counted, and anyone with godly blood within them. Please Please, save us. My parents are the leading “scientists” which is bullshit, and they’ve already tied me down once. I can’t go through that again. Please, Amity and the Infinite Realms need help. If you don’t help us, I’m scared we may be forced to go to war, and I don’t think you can win against the godly dead. 
Please, I’m begging you - Danny Fenton {King Phantom}
“You good B?” Nightwing asked strolling over casually. He didn’t know how to answer, how was he supposed to say ‘Oh yeah, just found out that the government calls us non-sentient\sapient, and we are to be experimented and slaughtered. Also if we don’t stop them our worlds probably going to fall and we’re all going to die a painful death.’ That’s a fun conversation to have.
Clearing his throat he finally spoke up. 
“Red Robin, Oracle, I need you to help me sort through these, Nightwing, get the Justice league ready for an emergency meeting, call the Dark too. Look at this.”
“Are we sure it’s real though? It could be a prank,” muttered Oracle, though even she doubted her words.
“Even so, the threat is there and we should certainly look through this, and that means the League needs to know.”
Batman carefully mourned the loss of a peaceful evening, and his coffee, he was going to need to leave that at the cave, he had an image to keep. 
Nightwing wasn’t smiling anymore, Robin looked concerned, and Red Hood was openly gawking at the screen.
“I’ve called the emergency meeting, you three sort these files out, I’m calling up the JLD now. Guess we should warn Constantine to bring a couple extra bottles huh.” His joke fell flat, but Bruce wonders if he should bring some alcohol and coffee with him, image be dammed. 
“Wait a second, godly blood included? They fuckn’ shittin’ on Diana!”
“That’s what your concerned about Todd? Not that the we both fall under these parameters, along with Father and the rest of the collection? I will go fetch Thomas from his chambers, he will need to suit up to follow us to the watchtower.”
“Good idea Damian, tell him to hurry up. Everyone else, in the Zeta Tube, Alfred, you can stay here if you want.” Bruce gathered his laptop and moved the file over, copying and sending it to Tims laptop as well. 
“Thank you master Bruce, I will wait for the younger masters then I will be up shortly. Run along now.” Alfred excused with a bow, but even his face was shadowed in worry and thinly veiled anger. 
“See you in a bit Alf.” Dick replied, inputting directions to the watchtower in and doing a quick headcount. 
With a flash, the dark gloomy cave was replaced by fluorescent lights and the steel infrastructure of the watchtower. Hopping off the platform another flash of light appeared, and Aquaman stepped out. The group filled out as Aquaman politely greeted them. Making their way to the nearest meeting room, Batman and Red Robin began to set things up as the gathered heroes began to sit. 
“Hey Nightwing, what’s with the meeting, you never call for an emergency meeting, Blüd rarely has big threats.” Flash mentioned as he zoomed into the meeting room, last as always, and began to dig into his waffle plate. Where he got waffles from, Bruce didn’t want to know, they weren’t serving waffles in the cafeteria today, or yesterday from leftovers. 
“This isn’t just Blüdhaven, it’s all of the united States.” He worried, checking over one final time to make sure everyone was here. A collection of the main heroes from the Justice League, they’d need to figure out who counted as ecto-contaminated before throwing people around, and Constantine, Zatanna, and Deadman were gathered to represent Justice League Dark. At least he assumed Deadman was there, as a chair was pulled out and labeled for him. At least they wouldn’t have to race to find him, they could tell him just to stay up in the watchtower if things got bad. Finally, Robin and Signal rushed in, signal tiredly rubbing his eyes and his helmet in Agent A’s hands. 
“As some of you know, a person got stuck in the batcomputer a couple months ago. And was only recently released.” Murmurs and imputed questions rose around, and Nightwing promptly ignored them. 
“They left behind a file for us, and we were looking through it and discovered many hidden crimes from the US government. They have taken and labeled a whole species and group of people as non-sentient and non-sapient, and have been experimenting and committing genocide on them.” Again, a chorus of questions and yelling went up, and Nightwing had to take a moment to pause. A glance at Martian Manhunter reviled a stone cold face, quietly waiting for more information. 
“Oh god… what is this?”

Pairing | Thomas Shelby x Female reader
Summary | When Mrs. Shelby requests Tommy in the room with her for the birth of their first daughter everyone is shocked. Men aren't supposed to be in the room with their wives as they give birth, it's just not how it is supposed to be... well all men aren't Thomas Shelby.
Warnings | Mentions of childbirth, pain obviously she's literally giving birth, maybe ooc Tommy? idk. Reader is a little mean to her doctors but she's in pain cut her some slack. MDNI because I said so. Foul language.
Word Count | .06k
~This is loosely based off of the scene in Queen Charlotte when they won't let George into the room to see Charlotte. If you know what I'm talking about I love you~
All dialogue in italics is spoken in Romani.
Tumblr media
"Mrs Shelby forgive me but husbands aren't usually in the room during the birth" The doctor spoke hesitantly as his eyes flicked nervously around the room.
Everyone seemed to speak hesitantly around her. I guess that was what you get when you become a Shelby. Everyone around you is constantly terrified to tell you no or disagree. It was like being royalty in a sort of fucked up way.
Polly Gray cut the doctor a look as she walked over to you and put a reassuring hand on your forehead.
"Polly please" you cried in pain "I need him here." Nothing from the old wive tales could compare to the pain you were feeling. You had been pushing for hours now with Polly at your side but nothing was working. Your daughter simply just would not budge. Polly had made the comment early on about her already showing traits from her father.
"I don't care what usually happens. If Tommy Shelby is not in this room in the next five minutes, I will personally end you." You spoke with a hiss pointing at the doctor.
You weren't usually this aggressive, but given the fact you were in pain and used to getting what you wanted all the time, the circumstances were different.
Polly sighed as she looked down at you and began to head out of the room.
"What's wrong, is she okay?" Tommy spoke immediately as Polly exited the doors of your room.
"She's requesting you Thomas" Polly spoke in Romani so as to not alert the other doctors of your request.
"She wants me in the room with her?" He spoke hesitantly as he looked towards the door.
Polly nodded and Tommy immediately started towards the door.
"I'm sorry Mr. Shelby but I cannot allow you to be in the room." The doctor outside of your door spoke as his eyes flicked down to the floor to avoid Tommy's sharp gaze.
"Tell me, doctor, do you like your job?" Tommy spoke with a raised brow as he waited for his response.
When he didn't reply Tommy bent down to reach his gaze "Hmm? I asked you a question doctor, do you like your job?"
"Yes. Yes I like my job" He murmured still avoiding the sharp blue eyes that were currently staring daggers at the man.
"Well if you intend on staying alive long enough to keep it, I suggest you move out of my way." Tommy stood up straight and tilted his head towards the door.
The doctor nodded and stepped aside, letting Tommy enter the room. "If I hear one more word from anyone about my presence in this room, I will have a peaky blinder on each and every one of your doorsteps first thing tomorrow morning" Tommy spoke before anyone could protest.
"Tommy" you gasped as you finally laid eyes on your husband. "I've been asking for you"
"I know, I know. But I'm here now eh? I'm here now." Tommy bent down to give your forehead a kiss as you winced.
"I cant do this Tommy" you cried "I want it to be over"
Tommy's heart broke at the sight of you. His wife. He wished he could just take all of your pain away and keep it for himself.
Tommy bent down to kneel at the side of your bed as he cradled your face in his hands.
"Look at me. Hey, Look at me, love." He spoke softly as you turned your head to gaze at him with teary eyes.
"You can do this. I know you can. You are the most headstrong women I know, and ill be damned if you give up now." You giggled at his lighthearted teasing and nodded.
"And you don't really have a choice love. This baby has got to come out in one way or another." He smirked at you as you rolled your eyes at your husband.
"Okay Mrs. Shelby its time to push" Your doctor spoke as Tommy placed a kiss on the hand he had ahold of and nodded at you.
"Let's meet our daughter Mrs. Shelby."

imagining bruce wayne in my favorite tony stark situations... like, in some time travel episode, bruce lands in the past and he comes face to face with his dad. they shake hands and bruce tells his dad his last name is kent. he finds out the date is weeks before he's born, with a very pregnant martha wayne waiting for thomas at home.
they have a conversation about being fathers, how bruce assures thomas he'll do fine. he has this nearly teary monologue about how he misses his mom and dad so much, how they still influence his decisions.
at the end, when clark finally gets through the portal to pick up bruce, thomas shakes his hand and says. "oh you must be bruce's husband!"
just funny times but also. feelings. because bruce holds it in until they're back to the present, then the dam bursts.

I would love more vampire dads please!! Seeing their dynamic with the reader is just so sweet! I would love to see more Elias too! (I think it’s funny how much of a softy he is is compared to Thomas..)
Elias would have never described himself as a soft man, even before his turning, he was a cold silent man, generous and kind in his own way, but in his line of work softness and warmth rarely survived, if ever. When human he was a leader, boss of many as one of the heads in the vampire hunter association, and one of the top performers, a no nonsense cold and calculating man.
Sure, he was caring with his loved ones, even playful. But never soft. As a mountain of a man it simply didn’t fit him. Strength and violence marked his day to day.
When Thomas entered his life it added a missing spice to it, the love, the undeniable attraction between the two of them, it was magical, Thomas was the first person he was ever sweet with, his downfall, his whole heart in one being. But even then he wouldn’t describe their relation as sweet, much less as something soft. They were two predators that often enjoyed a game of cat and mouse between themselves.
But then you came
Wonderful, sweet you
If Thomas was his downfall, you were his absolute demise, a child of his own, something he would have never dream about. You sweet face, your soft voice, it simply made his heart beat, reviving a part of him that was long gone. He feels guilty when he is reminded of your first interaction, if he’s honest he usually was a bit of a brute with other vampires entering his and his husband’s territory, but seeing you crying, so small and light in your dirty pajama, his heart broke, and the guilt of handling you so roughly eats at him every time.
He is not even sure why or how, but you simply are the apple of his eye, a sweet little thing that he loves dearly, if you asked for it he would bring you the moon and stars.
He treats you like royalty, softly carrying you from place to place. His heart melts when you curl up closer to him. Handling you with such care and giving you soft loving words and delicate touches. He hates to see you cry, doing anything in his power to make sure you never experience discomfort, hurt or sadness if he can help it.
In his eyes, you are nothing but a defenseless child, and he will be dammed if anything happens to you.
The day you discover that he's at your beck and call it's over for him.

Can I request a "maze runner boys × reader having their first kiss." Like what would be the scenerio and stuff. Thank you♡
TMR x Reader having their first kiss
Thomas:
- oblivious puppy we all know that
- you came up before him, so there wasn’t much time to get to know each other
- in the wicked headquarters, when Teresa got taken away and you didn’t, you were the one trying to calm him down and helped to search for her
- you almost had a heart attack when he barely slid under those doors
- kept nudging you forward so that you don’t fall behind when you were running away
- when Winston passed away, you grabbed his hand for support, squeezing hard, and he squeezed back, letting a few tears spill from his eyes
- you finally realized you’ve fallen for each other
- cold nights in the scorch were warmed by his huge bear hugs
- I mean, literally, he has large arms and super protective hugs
- always makes you feel wanted
- so back to business, you arrived in the Right Arm, everyone had a chance to finally relax, you and Thomas went to search for Teresa
- At some point you stop and take both his hands in yours
- “You have to stop throwing yourself in danger like this”
- “But I have to protect-”
- “You can’t save everyone, Thomas. And who will save you?”
- hug him tightly, as if at any moment he’d disappear
- “I just car about you all,” he says, his hands gently drawing circles on your back, “I care about you,” he adds, then pulls back
- you look at him, not really understanding what he’s getting at
- his warm hand touches your cheek, doing the thumb thing
- and then he leans in
- and you do, too
- the kiss is very gentle and soft and loving
- you are his world and he is yours
- both of you pull back, smiling sheepishly
- *beat* *both, blurting out* I love you
- laugh at your perfect timing)
- he starts kissing you again, but you step back, because from the corner of your eye, you saw a wicked berg…
Newt:
- long story short, two oblivious idiots in love
- Minho’s “lovebirds!” jokes weren’t helping, only leading both of you to believe that the feelings aren’t mutual
- spent a lot of time with him in the gardens as a track-hoe
- deep, meaningful conversations
- QuAlItY tImE
- once he accidentally hurt his bad leg
- you helped patch him up
- it triggered him, and so he decided to confide in you, just let it all out and be done with it
- let’s just say it was really sad and emotional
- since then you became even closer
- you would stay with him in the Med hut, trying to cheer him up
- you didn’t even have to do anything, you being there is a boost to his mood already
- once you were sitting together on his bed and you started falling asleep
- he tried to shake you up, but you only wrapped your arms around his neck and clung to him
- unconsciously, of course
- you were just so sleepy, and he was so cozy, and…
- he wouldn’t stop smiling, admiring the girl in his arms
- feels like the luckiest guy ever
- kisses the top of your head, thinking you’re asleep
- TA DAM you’re not.
- you slowly get up, any tiredness completely gone
- and you blush, and he blushes, and you’re eyes widen
- then, surprising you both, you press your lips to his
- man, he didn’t expect that
- doesn’t kiss back, scaring the bloody hell out of you, because you think you did s wrong thing
- but then his hand is on the back of your neck, another around your waste, and his lips meet yours again
- boy, he did know how to kiss. No idea how, but he. just. knows.
- so careful, yet so passionate
- both of you pull back rather quickly
- ToUcHiNg FoReHeAdS
- “I think it’s the right time to say I love you” he breathes
- you look into his chocolate eyes and smile
- rub your noses together, peck his lips once more
- and once more
- and then his cheek, making his breath hitch
- “love you, too, mister Newton”
Minho:
- The two of you are sassy, no denying that
- but before you became an official couple, you were just so shucking shy like oh my
- and he didn’t understand it at first
- then he grew to like it
- and like you
- he would sit with you at lunches whenever he had a day of, and made sure to have a brief conversation with him at bonfire
- you would always be rather timid and polite, until one day you ACTUALLY SASSED BACK
- it surprised him so much he would just open his mouth and stare at you for a few seconds
- “are you okay?”
- after that, he knew there was more to you than shyness
- he taught you confidence
- maybe you taught him to be a tiiiiiiiny bit humble
- (unlikely thought, duh)
- one day you couldn’t find him anywhere, so you went to the map room
- and yup, he was there, leaning over the table covered with maps with a grim expression
- you asked him what was wrong, and even tried to joke
- he would always laugh at your poor attempts to joke
- he was silent
- so you walked up to him and took his hand
- “what’s wrong?”
- it was the first time he was so open with anyone about his problems
- it just, like, spilled out
- and then you hugged him, because you knew he needed it
- he almost squeezed the air out of you, but you didn’t care
- “there is a way out, I promise. You’re doing your best to find it, and I know you will”
- “And what is I don’t?” you were taken aback, because he sounded on the verge of tears, “What if there’s no way out?”
- you pulled back, making him look at you
- “There is. And you’ll find it.”
- the way his eyes watered made yours burn, too
- to put you both out of your misery, you leaned down and kissed him
- he held you like you were his last hope
- his lips so soft and arms so strong
- barely audible moans made you shiver
- when you pulled back, you saw a few tears escaping his eyes
- but he stood straighter
- “thank you”
Gally:
- most people would say he’s not the type to fall in love or fall for, but actually quite the opposite
- instantly noticed you, but never thought you noticed him
- was shocked when you walked up to him and asked for help
- like, why him?
- alright, it didn’t mean anything, so he just went on and helped
- all the while you more and more understood that grumpiness is not his only face
- you got a job as a builder and so you had more time to spend together
- he was so talkative around you
- your conversations would occasionally be really, really deep
- one time you told him you weren’t sure you were beautiful, since there were no mirrors in the Glade
- it really stung him
- like, how could you, YOU, not feel beautiful? You were gorgeous
- when you walked to your hut, you’ve found something on your pillow
- a flower and a note
- “you’re beautiful”
- it actually made you cry
- next morning he came in to ask for something, you literally ran up to him with a hug
- he felt kinda awkward
- when you pulled back, he said “What was that for?”
- you saw a hint of a smile on his lips
- it made you smile even wider
- suddenly he was all serious, placing his hands on your shoulders
- “Don’t ever think you’re not beautiful. You are. If any of those shanks ever says otherwise, I’ll beat the living klunk out of them.”
- unbelievable man.
- watches you for a few seconds
- then carefully leans in, searching for any sign on your face that you don’t want to
- but you do, so when you’re sure about what he’s doing, he close the gap between you
- you have to try it to know how good it feels
- and so gally kept his promise, and you never felt not beautiful ever again

catwin nation, can I offer you a little hurt/comfort in a canon setting
I feel like the Cat King is not the type to say "i love you" out right , so after months of very much dating but not calling it dating Edwin tells Thomas that he thinks it may be time to part ways, the Cat King is very hurt but tries to mask it, asks if Edwin's finally bored of him and, frustrated, and hurt that Thomas doesn't seem to care, Edwin tells him "no, I simply do not want to fall in love with another person who cannot love me back"
and the Cat King, who's tried and failed to keep Edwin at an arm's length this entire time because he was sure Edwin would never actually see him as something worth keeping, just looks at Edwin like "what do you mean 'cannot love you back'? do you not see?? how do you not see the power you have over me already??"
they talk and it ends with the Cat King whispering right into Edwin's mouth, his tone all petulant "of course I love you, ghostie"
later at a get together with everyone the Cat King keeps bickering with people and teasing them, Edwin pulls him back a little to whisper in his ear "be a good kitty" and it's the first instance that Edwin actually manages to fluster Thomas, and the subsequent pissed expression on the Cat King's face makes Edwin laugh and smile with teeth
he leans into Thomas again, this time to tell him "I had no idea. That relationships could be this… joyful. I have never thought that I could have something like this for myself. Thank you." And then it's like a dam has been broken and Thomas just has to kiss him and can't stop fervently whispering "I love you. fuck, I love you"

Surnames in Pentiment Not surprisingly, almost all of them are occupational. If I forgot somebody let me know. - A note: "-yn" or "-in" were endings added to women's surnames in Bavarian dialect to create a feminine form. Thus Gertner→Gertneryn, Drucker→Druckeryn, etc.
Andreas & Caspar
Maler: "painter"
Ziegler: "brick maker", "tiler"
Peasants
Gertner: "farmer, gardener"
Bauer: "farmer, neighbor"
Kemper: "farmer, serf"
Hübner [Sepp, Simon]: "farmer" (in particular a farmer who worked a specific amount of land called a hube, equivalent to an English hide, of ~120 acres)
Kreutzer [Old Til, Black Til]: "cross", someone who lived near the village cross
Pfeiffer: "whistler, piper"
Rauch [Ursula's husband Fabian]: "smoke", "hearth"

Steinauer: "stonecutter, mason"
Müller: "miller"
Stolz: "proud"
Isenkopf: literally "iron head"; "metalworker"

Cappoci [Illuminata]: "head, overseer" (another real family, this one minor nobility)
Fries [Matilda]: either geographic, referring to someone from Friesland, or occupational, "builder of dams/dikes"
Hafner [Sophie]: "potter"
Kaufmann [Lijsbet]: "merchant"; married name "Woutersen", Dutch form of the patronymic name "Walter's son"
Huberyn [Gertrude]: variant form with the same meaning as "Hübner", above
Rožmberk [Zdena]: "rose hill/mountain" (also a real Bohemian/Czech noble family)
Faucigny-Saux [Mathieu]: geographic (Faucigny; Saux would likely be a more specific location within the region, and was a fairly common topographic name for settlements, meaning "willow") ☞ As pointed out by @brothermathieu, while Illuminata writes Mathieu's surname as "Faucigny-Saux" in her letter to Magdalene, Mathieu signs himself with the name "Faux-Saucingny" (whether this is Illuminata getting his name wrong, or an in-game typo/error, mea culpa). ☞ Saucingny/Saucigny doesn't turn up much (what I have been able to find is primarily misspellings of Sauvigny); but the surname Faux can be another topographical name (this one deriving from a beech tree) or it can be an occupational name meaning "reaper" or "maker of scythes".
Růžička [Wojslav]: "rosy" (Slovak)
Other
Caviezel [Else]: "horse, horseman" - (Swiss-Romansh - the significance of which you can potentially learn in Act III; this is also why Else is the only woman whose family name doesn't follow the -yn pattern)
