•Masterlist•
Growing up in a small town in Georgia can have its benefits, close friend group, late night walks, fun memories, but not for some, not for me I get the other side of a small town, the rough crowd and the judgmental stares from the well of kids who’s parents gave them everything they wanted
I never thought there was a problem with the way I lived as a kid but the older I got and realized that not everyone lives with abusive, negligent parents it was world shaking for me and I felt like a complete loser and I still do, I don’t have much some simple clothes and some drugstore perfume and makeup but that’s about it, others girls in my class had expensive name brand everything and judge those like me who didn’t
My dads drunk and takes his problems out on me, my moms a coward and won’t stand up for me so here I am walking around school with a cut down my eyebrow with a nasty bruise forming around
“What happened y/n old man beat on you again” Jessie says laughing as she walks by with her little click, I look back into my locker getting my books for science class sighing not ready for the day ahead full of more comments like that
I walk into Mr.jensons class taking my seat at the back, some people whispering as I walk through the class
“Okay class we have a new student transfering to our class from a different course, obvious people like me more than miss.smith’s music class” he says obnoxiously as the student enters our class
Daryl Dixon he lived a few houses down from me but we didn’t interact much, sometimes I’d see him take out the trash or see him sitting on the doc on the lake behind our houses, it was rumoured that his dad beat on him too but it’s not like we were gonna be friends because we’re abused that crazy…..right?
“You can go sit at the back next to y/n” Mr.Jenson points out to me
He sits down and I can smell his calming aroma, woodsy with a hint of cigarette
“Hi” I smiled meakly
“Hey, ya live on my street don’t ya” he asks slouching down in the chair
“Yeah, I’ve seen you around” so he’s seen me too
“Alright class listen up” the class went on like usual until the bell rang signalling the end of the day, I gathered up all my stuff shoving them in my bag and leaving the class, walking through the hallways heading for the exit when someone runs up next to me
“Hey, ya walking home?” Daryl asks looking down at me
“Oh yeah, I usually like to sit at the doc when I get back, don’t like to stay in the house much”
“Why not?” He asks as he continues to walk beside me back to our street
“I think you know, everyone talks about it” I say motioning to my bruised eyebrow
“They don’t understand, ain’t yer fault”
“It’s just……embarrassing” I say rubbing my arm as a nervous habit
“Yer old man?”
“Yeah, you?” He nods in agreement looking down
“Pretty shitty, wish I could just get out of here or just start fresh here” he hums making my heart warm, finally someone understands how I feel
We got to our street stopping infront of my house
“So ummm I’ll be down at the doc later if you wanna meet me there just to talk or whatever” I say
“Yeah I’ll see ya there” he says heading off to his house a few doors down
I walked into my house hoping nothing happens today, seeing my dad sat on his chair with a beer in his hand watching the tv
I try to walk past him to my room when he grabs my wrist
“Did you pick up the cigarettes from the store like I asked?” His voice is already angry, I completely forgot
“I……I forgot, I’m sorry” I whine as he tightens his grip
“Why can’t you ever listen, you know what this means”
“No please I’m sorry I’ll go get them now”
“It’s too late”
Sitting on the doc was suppose to be a wind down form the day an escape from hell that is suppose to be a house, instead I’m sat here feeling like I went solar against concrete, my lip is busted severely, by cheek stings, bruises and whips against my back, the hoodie I’m wearing was irritating against my sore flesh
I’d do anything just to go back in time and run away with my sister but I was scared and young and now I’m miserable and constantly afraid
“Hey sorry I’m late” I heard from next to me, too deep in thought to have heard him approach
I kept my head down looking at the water
“It’s fine” I mumble
“Ya okay?” That one simple question broke the damn in me as tears spilled down my cheeks, I turn to him just wanting reassurance or comfort
“I forgot to get a pack of cigarettes on the way home” my voice quivers as he stares at my red cheek and bust lip
“How am I even suppose to cover this up”
“I could go kill him” he huffs anger rising in his features
“Everything hurts” I wince when he places his hand on my back, he pulled back quickly
“Do ya need help?”
“I don’t know how bad they are”
He moves behind me lifting my sweater up to my shoulders, revealing the old and new scars that littered my back with occasionally fresh bruises
“Oh baby girl I’m so sorry” he says under his breath but there was something there in his words that made it feel like he understood this type of beating
“Are they bad?”
“Don’t think ya need stitches but I don’t want ya going back there” he says bringing my sweater back down moving beside me again
“But where am I suppose to go?”
“Old man’s gone for a week, ya can stay at my place”
“Are you sure I don’t want to burden you”
“Ain’t a burden, yer staying with me, come on”
His house was more or less just like mine but there is no surprise there, our fathers are basically the same, he brings me to his room and it’s pretty normal, some hunting stuff plain brown walls
“Thanks for this” I say sitting on the edge of his bed
“ ‘course, ya need anything?”
“Do you have any painkillers?” He went in his drawer and popped one in my hand, taking it hoping it will ease this discomfort
He jumped on the bed sitting next to me as a comfortable silence surrounds us
“I got em too”
“Huh?”
“Scars, don’t like to show em, don’t like to be reminded”
“I’m sorry Daryl, one day we’ll be happy, one day we’ll get out of this mess”
“Together”
Part.2 soon working on some other stories!!:)

loved ur rejection angst ficc!! what about a fic where the roles are inverted? like its reader rejecting alex :) ?
Thank you! Thanks for the request!
"I can't right now." A Quackity Imagine.
Alex was in love. Oh, he was so in love. He would get lost in your eyes every damn time he'd look at you. His heart would beat faster than anything when you touched him, when you kissed his forehead, when you'd laugh about his stupid jokes... He was so in love it would hurt, but you... You were trying to move on from your stupid ex. Alex thought sometimes that, maybe, he'd have a chance with you.
"That's the day! Gonna say to Y/N that I love her." He says to the mirror and to his friend, Noah (most known as Foolish). "Dude, are you sure?!" He asks. "You said I should confess my love and now are you asking if I'm sure?! Really?!"
"Sorry, man. I just, like, yeah, you should, but... Are you sure?!"
"I'm not. But I have to have courage enough to tell a girl that I love her." Alex says and sighs. "Well, I'll do it." Foolish nods and gets up. "Well, fine. Good luck, dude! The worst that you can receive is a "ew, no.", you know?!"
"Thank you, it helps me so much." Alex is ironic and Noah laughs. "Well, bye." He lefts Alex's apartment. "What a great friend." The boy whispers.
"Heyy." You say to Alex as soon as you see him, the boy smiles to you and hugs you by the waist. "Hey, you look beautiful." He says and you smile. "Thank you, Alex!"
The boy took you to a fancy restaurant, he didn't say the reason, but you might knew it. Alex was acting more... Romantic with you in the past months, you thought he just wanted to make you feel better, but sometimes you'd see him watching you with shiny eyes.
You loved him. Of course, he was your best friend, but... Only your best friend, you know?! You never saw him in any other way.
"Y/N?" He calls you and you smile. "Yeah?!" You look at him with a smile. "What do you want to order?!" He asks you.
"Do you like me?!" You ask him right after, and Alex looks at you with confused eyes. "W-What? I... Wh... Who told you that?!"
"It's obvious, Alex. All the flowers, the fancy restaurants, the touches and glances... I'm not stupid, you know?!" You say, a little upset. You didn't even know why you were upset, but you just... You were passing through a lot of problems and Alex decided to like you?!? "I'm in love with you." He says. Oh, great. He decided to fall in love with you while your world is upside down!
"Alex, I... I don't like you back and I can't believe you made this mistake! I'm your best friend! And I'm passing through a lot of shit right fuckin' now, how can you even think about falling in..."
"I don't think, it's not a rational decision, Y/N, and you know it very well, right?! Because you still love your ex even with all the mistakes he..."
"Oh, shut up about my fuckin' ex! You don't understand, you never dated someone!" You cut him off and he looks at you with sadness in his eyes. "I just said I was in love with you and you say I don't understand the feeling?!"
"Are you sure that you're in love with me, Alex?!" You ask him. "Oh my God, of course I'm! Jesus, Y/N." He says, upset. "I can't believe you're saying all this shit to me, I swear, it's unbelievable."
"I... Alex, no, I don't want you loving me this way, okay? I just can't deal with this information right now!" You say, Alex gets up from his chair and starts to walk to the exit of the fuckin' fancy restaurant. You get up and follow him through the door. "Alex!" You yell his name when you reach him at the parking lot. "Go away, I don't want to talk with you right now!" You hear his broken voice and you know he's crying even when he's not looking at you. "I'm sorry, Alex! I can't love you this way! Not right now!"
"Whatever, Y/N!" He yells at you. "I'm sorry for falling in love with you, I didn't mean to. That's what you want to listen to, uh?!"
"You're being such a selfish person, Alex!" You yell back and he laughs. "And you're being an asshole, Y/N." He turns around to face you and you can notice his red eyes.
"Fuck you! It's not my fault I don't find you interesting enough to fall in love with." You say and the impact of what you just said made Alex back off a little. The pain in his eyes just made you realise how mean you were being with him.
"Alex, I didn't mean it. I swear, I'm sorry." You try to approach him, but he backs off again. "Just... Go, please! I don't want to see your face anymore."
"Alex, I swear.."
"Leave!" He yells and you turn around to leave the parking lot, knowing you lost your best friend, the only person that was with you while you were passing through all of this.
Alex watched you walk away and start to sob. It was worse than he thought it'd be.
You broke his heart.
Thank you for reading, I hope you enjoy the writing! :)
Requests are open!

Weirdly specific things Entreri would Approve or Disapprove of if he was a BG3 companion
APPROVE:
Taking the ring from Mattis and just walking away
Baa-ing at the red caps (ha ha idiots)
Saving Arabella by talking down the snake rather than Kahga (color him impressed, you saved the girl without stirring the pot)
Giving the Noblestalk to Derryth (maybe wife beaters should die)
Rejecting Raphael at every turn but especially rudely
Every "kill yourself" boss option in Act 2
Making someone other than him go onto the clown stage (ha ha idiot)
Supporting Mol's business ventures
Biting Crusher's toe off (he's kind of a freak sometimes, I'm sorry)
Taking Gortash's offer
Freeing Wyll from his contract (it's not like I secretly like that guy or anything, I hate heroes, stop looking at my boner when he fights)
Extorting the chest from Rugan then killing him later to stay on the Zhent's good side
Letting Lae'zel just do whatever murderhobo thing she wants tbh
DISAPPROVE:
Drawing the mustache on Vlaakith (you're gonna get us killed in this base full of githyanki for your fucking whimsy)
Convincing Rolan to stay in the Grove (1. not our business 2. all your preaching is gonna do is just get these guys killed too, is that really what you wanted?)
Siding with Minthara against the Grove, though he won't leave the party neccesarily
Giving the Noblestalk to Baelen (maybe wife beaters should die!!)
Telling Tara to stop eating pigeons (this noble creature is living life to its fullest)
Making him go up on the clown stage, he will be unspeakably livid
Sparing the goblins Ketheric tells you to kill (idiot did you even see that man, do you even know where we are right now)
Letting Wyll kill Karlach (a real professional knows a bullshit job when they see one, hero)
Drinking Jaheira's truth serum spiked wine (you're embarrassing me in front of an actually savvy person, why are you always like this, Tav)
Getting whipped by Abdirak (he is kinkshaming you)
Fucking the Emperor (he's kinkshaming you again but also are you an idiot, that man is using us)
Fucking Mizora (I resent Wyll as much as I do any self-proclaimed hero, but he trusted you)
(General note from Entreri: STOP HAVING SEX AT CAMP)
Petting Scratch (he is joyless, get a move on)
Paying to free the artist (you're embarrassing me in front of the other criminals)
Talking to Naaber, just at all
Asking the drow sex worker to roleplay as Drizzt Do'Urden (Entreri isn't there, he just senses he should hate you for some reason)
THINGS HE'S INTERESTINGLY NEUTRAL ON:
In theory letting Gale blow up the Netherbrain would make the most sense but... I hate gods.
He is alarmingly unfazed by you licking the spider.
