No Sugar Tonight 5

Character: Brock Rumlow

Summary: A regular customer becomes more than just a familiar face.

As usual, I would appreciate any and all feedback. I’m happy to once more go on this adventure with all of you! Thank you in advance for your comments and for reblogging ❤️

The townhouse is big compared to your apartment, though most places are. Brock keeps his hand tight on yours as he brings you up the front steps. He punches a code into the lock, the numbers blocked out by his large figure. You teeter on your feet as he pushes down the lever and shoves the door inward.  

He points you in ahead of him and adjusts the straps of the duffel bag hooked over his shoulder. Those are your things, parsed down to a single bag. He follows you in as your eyes skimp the walls. Despite your muddled fear, you can’t help but stand in awe of the antique panel and brick. 

“You seem like the old-style type,” he plops the bag down on the wooden bench against the wall, “shoes.” 

You look down and nod. You kneel to unlace your work sneakers and put them on the rack. He sits beside the duffel as he works at loosening his boots. 

You tear your attention from the tear drop bulbs of the chandelier light above and look at him. Like really look at him. He’s in all black like always. His hair is a similarly dark hue and a shadow of stubble never leaves his square jaw. His shoulders are broad and straight and even sitting, he looks huge. He looks up and narrows his eyes as he catches your gaze. 

“Sir, er, Brock,” you twist your palms together. 

“Yes, baby,” he sits up, his shoulders squaring. The pet name tweaks in your stomach. 

“Erm...” you peer around. “I... I don’t know.” 

“You don’t like it?” He stands and you take a step back. “We can update it.” 

“Um, no, it’s... pretty but... what... what am I doing here?” 

He snorts. It’s as close to laughter as he’s come. 

“Whatever you want, baby.” He nears and reaches for you. You wince as he cradles the back of your head and draws you close. “It’s our home, we make the rules.” 

He bends and kisses your forehead. You gulp as the heavy scent of his cologne strangles you. His fingers curl into your scalp and he hums. He hesitates for just a moment before he pulls back. 

You suck your lip in under your teeth and turn away. You’re buzzing from his proximity. The way he crowds you is unnerving. Everything about him is. 

You sense him watching you as you tiptoe around the bottom of the staircase and stop to stare at the framed painting of a woman in 19th century garb. She seems familiar as she sits on a stool in flowing ivory and pets a lamb, her stomach swollen with child. 

“Like I said, you can change it,” he grits as he comes closer. “Have a look around. Explore. It’s all yours.” 

You flinch and bat your eyes at the picture. This is real. You peek over at the duffle bag as the horror rolls up your spine. You don’t think you’re ever going back to your old life. This man won’t let you. 

You continue down the hallway next to the stairs if only to get space from him and your looming fear. You turn to look into the den. A long sofa and cushy armchairs, bookcases on either side of the vintage fire stove and a rustic rug across the aged wooden floor. You can’t deny that it’s cozy. 

He lurks like a shadow but allows you enough space to make your own way through the place. The kitchen is wrought in walnut and iron. A gas stove, a black fridge, and a dishwasher to boot. The walk-in pantry is stocked to the ceiling. You back out as he leans in the crook of the counter. 

“There’s more upstairs, baby.” 

You take his subtle directive and retrace your path. The dining room on the other side of the stairs gets only a quick glance before you climb to the next floor. Another hallway with several doors. A bathroom with a clawfoot tub and separate shower booth, a linen closet, and office, and the main bedroom. You stop in the last and stare at the four-postered bed. 

You retreat and pass Brock as he stands against the wall, halfway up the stairs. There’s another door but it doesn’t open. You don’t try to get past the lock. You go back to look down at him. 

“It’s nice, er... Brock.” 

“All for you,” he turns and climbs up patiently. 

“I--” your wring your hands, “really?” You look one way then the other, “thanks, but...” 

“You shouldn't chew your lip. It’s already chapped.” He grabs your hands and pulls them apart, “stop picking at your nails.” 

“Sorry, I--” 

“Don’t be. I’ll take care of ya until you take care of yourself,” he brings your hands up between his, grazing his calloused skin over yours. He turns your palms to his and pushes his fingers between yours. His cheek dimples and he guides your hands to his chest. “You’ll be safe here.” 

You nod and stay silent. His warmth seep through his shirt into your hands. It adds to the sheen of sweat speckling over your body. That fiery heat of fear, the nip of the inevitable. You still can’t wrap your head around it all but you know deep down, you’re not going back to your boxy apartment.

[redfountainpostin]

Umm, could we get some more headcanons on the boys and their dragons and all that stuff? :) I've been reading though them and I love them! ^^

Of course, I am so happy you enjoy them! Riven's dragon, Cannibal, is very old and had dozens of riders before him- to contrast that, Sunfire and Vermax, Sky and Brandon's dragons, are extremely young, they're the same age as the boys and they are their first riders. Sky and Brandon both mounted at the same time, 7 years old, so they are very experienced riders. Riven on the other hand first rode at 16, but Cannibal being so old helps because he knows what his rider wants even if the rider himself is not perfect at seeing it through. Riven did not speak High Valyrian Dominian prior to coming to Red Fountain, but Brandon nudged him to start learning phrases pretty much as soon as he saw him and Cannibal interact- he knew that Riven was the next rider. After Riven officially claimed the dragon- on the previous dragonrider's FUNERAL- (it really did nothing for his reputation lmfao) an actual tutor was sent from Andros and Riven is pretty good at it by the time season 1 rolls around. Sky and Brandon are C2 level, as if native speakers, and Riven is B2 by the time season 1 rolls around, and he no longer needs a tutor at that point, and through speaking with the guys, and reading (he canonically likes to read) he gets to C1 by season 3. He's never gonna be C2 but like, WHY WOULD HE NEED TO BE, lol. Sky's dragon hatched in his cradle. The egg was given to Erendor by Orion, as a kingly gift (dragon eggs are almost NEVER given outside the family) but it never hatched. It was kept warm and given to Sky as it made sense to do so, but the fact that it hatched for Sky and not Erendor is a sore point and Erendor deeply resents his son for that, instead of being proud.

While Red Fountain always had a dragonpit and was a designated residence for local and visiting dragonriders, only a few times in history was one of the students a dragonrider- and never before three at the same time, of the same age, of the same squad. It's a lot, and all of the professors and dragon handlers are invested because teenage boys are STUPID and Red Fountain currently has literal magical NUKES residing inside, and people with the codes are 16/17 and want to kill each other over who flirted with who's girl, who has more privilege, who insulted Princess Stella and where the fuck did the XT674WES hardrive go?! (timmy is not even a dragonrider but somehow even his problems become relevant and cause enough drama with the other 3 that the teachers are sitting on pins and needles) Speaking of that, I think they're ready for day of the royals when Sky and Riven have their showdown. They couldn't do much, truth be told, but at least it was *only* that. No one died, no dragon was life threateningly injured. The faculty waited for nearly 2 years for the shoe to drop, now it finally did. Riven lost control over Cannibal then- Darcy's magic messing with his mind led to little to none impulse control, whatever negative feelings he had towards Sky were being pumped up to the nines, and Darcy's own murderous tendencies kind of infected him- problem being, Riven himself is no stranger to such things, and nail in the coffin was that both he and his dragon are both cannibal. Honestly, if Riven's mind was weaker and the slip in control lasted for more than a few seconds (it IS seconds, just feels like hours to everyone watching) Sky and his dragon would both be VERY dead. The incident wasn't Darcy's doing, just consequence of her overall. The whole dragonrider thing is also giving me opportunity to have several additional set designs, based on which planet they are on we can see how the dragonrider lodgings look like. But here, it allowed me to make Red Fountain WAY bigger than it original is- and I mean BIG, BIG, HUGE, like... HUUUUUGE. Only part of the fortress is a school, there's insane amount of ground that's not for students to walk on, and part of that is the dragonriders' chambers. Officially, all three guys have a set of chambers- they still use the dormitory, though, because they are students. They can go inbetween of course, they are not bared entry, but not only would be rude to stay there while everyone else is in dorms, it is also extremely inconvenient bc as I said Red Fountain is huge and they legit could need good 30 minutes to get from the chambers to class. Still, the chambers are useful- to Sky and Brandon at least, because they can use them as storage- which is a blessing considering in my hc Red Fountain rooms are not all that big at all. Riven doesn't use his as storage area bc he doesn't have that many things to begin with, but when gifts from Andros (and pr lol) start piling in, whatever he won't use daily, he just tosses in there when he gets the chance.

The dragonrider lodgings is also why Riven will never get expelled- what's the point, he still would live there- at least as student they have some control and can try and mold him in the right direction.

One particular reason why I love the DragonRidersAU is that it's giving me an AU where Riven himself is nobility, without using the "he's the lost son of X" or "bastard son of Y". I enjoy both of those in moderation but I feel Bloom has monopoly on the "village girl finds out she's actually a princess" thing XD And in this verse, Riven actually outranks Musa, so THAT'S an interesting thing to keep in mind... However, for about six months before claiming Cannibal, HE WAS the lowest ranked person in Red Fountain and possibly all 3 schools. So him making such a jump really messed up the social ladder for a few months, but it kind of helped that Riven's demeanor didn't change much- like he was an arrogant twat before and he's an arrogant twat now (I actually think he managed to get away with things before in Magix because he's so haughty that sometimes people assume he must be some important nobility bc no commoner in their right mind would act like that lol- think Ciri when she ran away to see Geralt, the footman let her go because he thought she had authority to command him to open the door)

Sky, Brandon and Riven know Nabu prior to season 3- they first met him when he came to RF to do Riven's blessings (where they snickered through half the ceremony bc Nabu kept calling Riven "son" when Riven is like 6 months his senior) and then when Riven made his rite of passage ride to Andros, Sky and Brandon followed a day later, it was during spring break, Timmy was there too (no one is going to deny them a guest, especially not on Andros). So they know he's a super nice guy, not even Riven could find an excuse to strike beef with him.

"Ghadir is the completion of the religion, the perfection of God’s greatest bounty, the most magnificent feast of Allah; it is the feast for the righteous people, followers and supporters of the holy Prophet of Islam. Ghadir is the feast of Islamic justice and leadership, the feast of humanity, projecting light on the ideologies and inducing hopes in the hearts. It is the renewed covenant of the prophet’s mission in the guardianship of Imam Ali (A)."

*Ghadir is a code of life*

“By raising Imam Ali’s hand and introducing him as the source and guardian of Islam, the Holy Prophet guaranteed his divine mission and rescued it from evil powers. Ghadir not only marks a specific divine day but also signifies a turning point in history. It serves as a comprehensive guide for life, beliefs, and schools of thought. Moreover, it heralds the promise of a brighter future.”

[helly-watermelonsmellinfellon]

istg some ppl show that they did not have to go to a Christian school with a Christian dress code and therefore don't know how to imagine an outfit that fits the rules but doesn't look hideous.

What many ppl saw in their minds for Bella Swan's outfit on the day she met Edward's family:

What I saw in MY mind:

We legit were given a dress code for our Christian School Choir performing and one of our church's events and everyone had to wear khaki-colored bottoms and dark blue shirts, and I was like, "like the Wal-Mart workers?!"

Some girls wore the first pic, but either with a button-up, a t-shirt, or a denim skirt in khaki-color. I tried my best for the second, but with a white lace cami beneath that reached my collarbones so I wouldn't get into trouble, and black flats. My friend Abby went even a step further and made it even fancier somehow with full makeup and jewelry and high heels.

Bella has a particular style between tomboy and Modern-religious-girl-trying-to-explore and it all depends on her mood for the day. Edward is an Edwardian-religious-boy-trying-to-be-a-person-in-modern-day who gets hot at the sight of ankles and collarbones from the girl he likes(cuz he's seen many vampire women in states of not-clothed and not given a shit or showed interest, he's a virgin through and through).

Ok, some time ago I told @transgenderer something to the effect of "if you want to acquire a good understanding of the cross-linguistic patterns in phonology, you kinda just have to read a bunch of grammars and phonology papers; it's difficult to find a source which summarizes all the data comprehensively and neutrally". And that's unfortunately true, but crucially I did forget to mention the existence of searchable typological databases. For phonological inventories there's PHOIBLE, for general language structures there's WALS, there's also a lot of data at the UCLA Phonetics Lab Archive, and for rare features and putative universals, there's the Universität Konstanz Rara & Universals Archive. There used to be something specifically for phonotactics, the World Phonotactics Database at http://phonotactics.anu.edu.au/, but it's no longer online. Apparently they are planning to bring it back eventually.

These are all great starting points for getting a sense of what does and does not occur in language and how widely. None of them (well, excluding the UCLA Phonetics Lab Archive because that's not really a typological database) should be trusted about any specific language without consultation of the relevant literature. Despite best efforts on the parts of the people who organize these projects, the fact is that many languages are simply very poorly documented and ill-understood, and these databases must make a choice on how to code the relevant data points, leaving aside crucial information about the level of certainty. On top of that, especially before recent times many authors used idiosyncratic notation that may be ambiguous or have been misunderstood by the people entering the data into the database, etc.

PHOIBLE is especially sensitive to the fact that what phonetic symbols are assigned to the phonemes of a language is to some extent an arbitrary choice on the part of whoever is doing the analysis. Usually you'll pick something like the most common phonetic realization of the phoneme, or the realization in the least marked environment, or something like that, but ultimately (moderately controversial claim incoming) there's no ascertainable ground truth to what the underlying values of individual phonemes "really are". The whole point of phonemes is that they have a range of values in different environments! So there's ground truth to phonological system as a whole, and assigning specific phonetic symbols to each phoneme is a convenient way to distill the gist of phonetic realization at a glance, but it's ultimately kind of arbitrary. Looking at phoneme inventories can give you a sense of the kind of phonetic features which tend to be contrastive crosslinguistically, but but you have to be very careful interpreting the data.

Uh, right, so these databases are useful tools, especially because they're searchable. But you have to be really careful with them.

A Long-Overdue RANT Girlies Appreciation Post

Tonight feels like the perfect night to tell you how much I love you all, and I apologize in advance for the length of this post.

~ Nina ~

My precious Pastel Woods outfit hype-woman who’s always ready to Style Carry™️ me onto the battle field, deceive the enemies with her iconic mermaid hair extensions and then KICK SOME ASS for the both of us. Darling, if your Pinterest board is any indication, you have me absolutely figured out and it is both hilarious and iconic. You are for real my Kenny-coded friend’s evil twin and I know without a doubt that you two would go full GTA mode on the NPC bad drivers to bring me an iced coffee (from ANYWHERE but the Bad Vibes Café). Speaking of which, I hoping you’re treating yourself to an iced chai, because you deserve it, you gorgeous and talented REAL author who I adore. Thanks for climbing up on stilts to give me a kiss on the cheek whenever I’m feeling down. Your constant kind words mean so much to me and yes, you did make me cry actual tears when you called me your IRL Superhero. Your dear Wal-Mart Taylor Swift sends all the love in the world.

~ Teri ~

Scary Teri, my favorite Ten Ferrets Stacked in a Trench Coat, my fellow road rage gal who loves screaming in the car as much as I do. I can’t even tell you how much I appreciate you for biting the bullet and being the Cartman friend with whom I can make THE darkest jokes and tell THE darkest stories (and, of course, exchange graphic jump-scare surgery pics) without scaring you away. At the end of it all, you still tell me I’m vibrant and resilient, and that warms my heart more than I can express. Thank you for allaying my fears of becoming a Cynical Asshole (formal diagnosis as you all know). Thank you for making me feel strong when I feel weak. I look forward to many, many more unhinged conversations and overly analytic beta reads of your spectacular fics. I do, in fact, still expect to receive a package containing the buckets of tears I have harvested through Hourglass.

~ Riley ~

My dearest WARRIOR, sword-wielding protector Riley, co-sponsor of the Style Carry™️ who makes me spontaneously combust with everything she writes. We come together to form one joint Whump Deity as the Queen of Injury Fics and the Queen of Sickfics, and I love that everyone on ao3 GENUINELY lumps us together as one being. I don’t blame them since we really do be sharing one brain cell. It kicks ass being each other’s target audience because even with our most self-indulgent shit, mark my worms, the other WILL be absolutely blended. Whenever I’m feeling down, you’re ALWAYS locked and loaded with lizard pics and not to mention graphic illness and injury for my viewing pleasure. Your fics, bedtime stories and sneak peeks that are ALWAYS tacitly solicited bring me such an incredible amount of joy. I mean it. It was the sweet siren call of OJV that brought me to Tumblr in the first place. I am so glad to have come to the dark side and to have become a RANT girly, and I owe that all to you. You are the heart of RANT, dear. Without you we’re just ANT, and ants aren’t even that cool. Thank you so very much for being the ultimate hype gal, for being THE world’s best commenter, for reminding me to take care of Ye Olde Flesh Prison when I’m being terrible about it, and for worrying about me when I���m too stubborn to worry about myself. Your support means the world to me, my dude. Our chats and headcanon dumps have actually been the grounding force keeping me sane (ironically, since we’re so insane about Style). Keep kicking ass and avoiding creepy pizza men, okay? I love you so much and I love being NOT normal together.

@1moreoffkeyanthem @asteria7fics @boxwinebaddie

All three of you, and everyone else on this crazy website who makes me smile, THANK YOU.

Quote of the Week

If you write a bug in your Rust program, Rust doesn’t blame you. Rust asks “how could the compiler have spotted that bug”.

– Ian Jackson blogging about Rust

Despite a lack of suggestions, llogiq is quite pleased with his choice.

Please submit quotes and vote for next week!

Oh ok. Don’t tell anyone you saw me and if you do tell them it was outside a wal-mart

Also ok, I won’t call you that Ms

Thank you, you seem nice enough! Don't worry I won't tell, but maybe next time use a different code name for your product, it was a bit confusing

[jumblekinz]

In 2016 I got my first signature webkinz- a Siamese cat. Not by buying it but by finding a lost toy in a Wal-Mart fake flower isle and passing it off as my own when i left since a- Wal-Mart didn't sell them and b- the tag thats Sween in the leg to say what species it is ( not to be confused with the code tag which was no where to be seen ). Despite it not being able to be properly adopted in game it was a dream come true for me :)

finders keepers dude those plushies were a LOT of money
