went back through and added and changed some stuff with anatomy because i reread it last night and found some inconsistencies

[selfloverrrrrr]

hii can i request Pervert gojo finally losing control and nonconing reader after she finds him jerking off with her panties. I’m talking pushing her down on the bed, threating to cum inside her with her begging him not to cause she’s not on birth control only making him go harder. An age gap would be pretty hot as well

Read the warnings carefully....if you don't like my stories block me not report

Gojo's POV

"Am I being a pervert?" I questioned myself. I'm her sensei. Yes I am obsessed with y/n. But never let anyone know that. Not even her. I always stalk her everywhere. I know she's my student. I know she has a crush on Yuji. But I won't let her confess to him. Because she's mine! I don't like if someone touches what's mine!

Whenever she's on a mission I went in her room. See her stuffs. I steal her pantie. Does that makes me pervert? I don't care if it does... She's mine... and I'm gonna make her mine one day!

It was a normal day. I just came back home. I went to the bathroom and took a bath. I came back to my bedroom. I got dressed. I was about to close my closet when I noticed y/n's pantie. Fuck! Every time I see those I get hard. I didn't have any work to do...so why not please myself?

I unzipped my pants and took the pantie. Fuck, my dick was already hard. I wrapped her pantie around my dick. This thing always touches her pussy. I'm gonna get her pussy wrapped around my dick too soon.

I stroked myself. "F-fuck" a moan escaped my mouth. I imagined y/n. Begging me to let her suck my cock. Her small mouth trying to take my dick in. I imagined her little juicy tongue licking the tip of my dick. I keep stroking myself.

I imagined her getting wet by trying to suck my dick. How she'll beg me to fuck her and make her cum. The way she calls me sensei.... And I'll fuck her hard. Spank her. Will fuck her so hard she'll never forget who she belongs to... I imagined all those nasty things and kept stroking myself until I heard my bedroom door open. "Y/n?" I said and tried to pull up my pants to cover myself.

Y/n's POV

I was talking with Nobara on call. "Yes yes I know it was so funny" I said. "I know right" Nobara said from the other side. "Btw girl....did you give sensei his card back that he gave us for shopping yesterday?" Nobara asked. "Oh shit... I forgot! I'm gonna give him back right now" I replied. "Okey then... gonna talk later " Nobara said and the call ended.

I went to Gojo sensei's room. I was about to knock but saw the door was open. I went inside. "Sensei?" I called his name. But no answer came. I heard some noise coming from his bedroom. I looked at the direction. I saw light coming from there. "Sensei must be there" I said and went towards the bedroom.

I opened the door. "Sensei your card-" but I got shocked. "Ahhh... f-fuck y/n don't stop" I saw him moaning while he was stroking himself. Eyes closed. And moaning My name?! He opened his eyes when he heard my voice. "Y/n?" He said and tried to cover himself pulling up his pant.

"I-I'm sorry I didn't.." I was speaking then my eyes went to his other hand. Which was holding a pantie? I recognised it. That was mine.... one of those which were Missing from my closet. My eyes went back to him. I saw him staring at me. He knew I understand what was happening.

I started going back. "I-I'm sorry...." I said and turned around to get out. When I turned around he was standing in front of me. I knew he can teleport himself. He was staring at me again. "You know it now... right ?" He asked with a smirk. "W-what" I said. I started back up inside his bedroom and his was walking towards me. "Don't try to be innocent.... I know that you understood it....my six eyes are telling me it" he said. "N-No... I don't ..... P-Please " I said. He looked at me and smiled.

Suddenly he grabbed my waist and threw me on the bed with him top of me. I screamed. "Lying to your teacher,huh?" He said. "Please sensei I don't know... please let me go" I begged. "I know that you know....that means can't let you go" he replied mockingly. He pressed his lips on mine. He kissed me. he forced his tongue inside my mouth. I slapped on his chest to stop him. But he didn't.

Then he pulled away. I gasped. I was breathing heavily. When I looked at him he already stripped himself out of his shirt. "I almost edged myself when you came in here... Now you should please me better " he said and ripped off my shirt. "Nooo....stopp!!!" I sobbed. "Still not wearing a bra, huh? Or were you wishing for me to rape you?" He whispered with a smirk.

"no no no.... please let me go!!!" I sobbed. Gojo kissed me again. He grabbed my boob and started squeezing it and I moaned in the kiss. Hearing my moan Gojo stopped the kiss and crashed his mouth on my breast. I moaned out loudly. He started sucking on my breast roughly. The more I moan the more roughly he sucks and  squeeze on my breasts.

He pulled away. He was still staring at me. I was trying to get away but he was locking my legs with his own legs. He ripped off my skirt and pantie. I heard an unzipping sound. He unzipped his pants again. Now I started crying. He smirked when he saw me crying. He stroked himself. It was huge. Was he going to fuck me now?!

He came on top of me again. Then he rubbed his dick on my clit. I moaned slightly. "Now spread those legs wideeeee for sensei ~" he whispered in my ear. " No no no!!!! I'm gonna tell everyone!!! I'm gonna tell this to everyone.... everyone will hate you!!!" I screamed. He pushed his whole length in one slide. "Go, tell them.... I. Don't. Care." He replied.

"ahhhhhhh.... pull out!!! Please pull out!!! It's too big.... I...I can't!!!!!!!" I sobbed and begged. "Shhh....be a good slut for sensei and please him" he said and started thrusting in and out. I screamed for help. "Nobody's gonna help you, slut....just accept it" he whispered in my ear and started thursting in and out roughly. I was throughig my legs with pain and begging him to stop. And he was liking it so much. His thurst became harder and harder.

I clenched around him tightly and he moaned loudly " ughhhhhh....ahhh s-so...ahhhh....so f-fucking tight.....oh fuck ...oh fuck.... it's even better than I thought it would be" he started rubbing my clit with his thumb and I bite his shoulder scratched his back to control myself. With a few more thurst I came. He was still thursting roughly. He choked me down to the bed. "Now look at me when I cum inside you" he said statistically. I felt his cock pulsing inside me. I tried to push him away with all of my strength.

" Ughh...no no no no...ahhhhhh...no please no....ahhhhhh..... n-not ahhhh.....not inside..." I moaned. He grabbed my throat and chocked me down to the bed. " Shhh.... shut up and just fucking take what I'm giving you." He screamed still thrusting roughly. "P-Please no.... I'm not on birth control....please don't" I begged sobbingly. I felt him going more rough after hearing it. And I sobbed more. "That's even better... I'm gonna mark you as mine...none will dare to touch you" he said with an evil laugh. Within a minute he came inside me I could feel his seed inside me. He pulled out. My vision was almost blurred out.

"wake up quick, darling.... I have to do it again ~" he whispered in my ear.

Give me your requests guys...

I love when you give me your requests 💕

HUEBERRY SHORTCAKE DUCK COMIC REACTION

this week it's DANGEROUS DISGUISE which is one of my favorites so you know i had to roll up. let's get going

so this comic was written in the middle of 1950 and is about spies. what else happened in 1950? THIS GUY. pause for hatred:

[for the non-americans because i don't know how common this information is: joseph mccarthy gave a speech in early 1950 that leveraged post-war anxieties about the soviet union's influence on countries weakened by the devastation to turn americans against each other by claiming that secret communist spies were infiltrating the US government. he made up most of this information but it sparked another Red Scare where everyone was particularly afraid of spies and stuff. birth of the cia etc. this has been an off-the-cuff history lesson by caoimhin]

okay anyway so we start out with the ducks having been banished to europe because they were annoying uncle scrooge too much. this is after barks realized that having a rich guy as a plot device to let the ducks explore was, comment dit-on, awesome. so that's Interesting Barks History Fact Number 1. donald says "i wish uncle scrooge would get mad at us more often" . swag

Interesting Barks History Fact Number 2: homeboy got in trouble for having too many humans in this comic. in fact i believe that the duck family are the only non-humans in this one. after this he tends to stick to his "vaguely dog-humanoid things" strategy when he doesn't feel like coming up with unique animal designs. i approve of this because it means i get to go full sonofmegavolt humina humina at some of the women he drew. outside of disney early in his career barks drew some quite racy stuff btw. insert wolf whistle here. ANYWAY.

we get some "gee whiz uncle donald do you think any of these cool europeans are spies" from the boys to which he's like "whatEVER" and theHOLD ON HOLD ON WHA

HIIIIIIII

ok im focused.

i lied. donald gets it

these panels are fire. i just want to take a moment to appreciate this for being hella violent. there's like six guns in one panel guys. everyone say thank you carl. huge fan of cloakan dagger, what a great name.

LMAOOOOO

and here she is. my beautiful wife madame triple x. i mean who. who is that. well we can tell she's french because of. she talks like that. everyone point and laugh at the french people. anyway madame xxx looks incredibly sexy and says "it's fine for me to read this message there's nobody around except for those three little boys digging in the sand" which is her first mistake because as we learn time and time again they're. well they're Like That. also when she thinks to herself she loses the accent which i did not pick up on initially because im silly

he's just like me guys

this made me shriek sorry dude just appeared

i KNOW barks was giggling and kicking his feet when he wrote this

at which point huey throws a grown man off a bridge. huey kill count 1

and would you LOOK WHO'S BACK

madame triple x are you free on thursday because i am free on thursday when i am free

how long was this guy just sitting there

"i'm just a girl lol"

bro you are two inches tall

NO DONALD NOOOO HE FELL ASLEEP ON THE TRAIN TRACKS NO DONALD HE CAN'T HEAR US HE HAS AIR PODS IN

you see it's FUNNY because the FRENCH PEOPLE went on STRIKE

"STOP THAT TRAIN IT'S RUNNING AWAY"

"sorry dude im on strike"

omg. see it's donald but you can tell he's spanish because he has black hair

next the triplets trap donaldo el quacko in the shower by holding him at Freezing Water Point. this wouldnt work on me because even though i have severe cold sensitivity ive been taking cold showers for three days [rv water heater broken]

after this we have a clever reference to El Materdor when donald gets ready to fight a bull.

get his ass louie

i like to think Miss Georgia Cornpone has a southern accent. actually can we fancast dolly parton. because of beautiful women

VERY SMALL!

that was so beautiful. thanks for coming with me guys. this comic is so good everyone listen to the Carl Barks Remarks episode about it because it's funny and informative ok byeee

[qprstobin]

Oh Eddie 100% was meant to be the king of the underworld, another mirror for Steve. I think that they feel a lot of frustration over how Steve turned out, otherwise I don’t get why they keep making weird doubles for him (we have three! why do we need so much!). I think maybe Eddie is a starter character that they would have developed into a Steve later? Like a character who becomes the confidant for the kids (a very boring choice btw)

The only reason people make Eddie into a victim is to give him the higher ground so that Steve can feel insecure and ashamed, which is a kink for the majority of Steve shippers (like even with Billy which is weird that Steve is sometimes apologizing there too. like guys???? what??????). Canon Eddie is a feral stinky teenage boy. “Mr Cringefail Mr Attentionwhore” to Steve’s “Mr Funny Mr Cool”. Like in order to be the king of the losers and freaks you kinda sorta NEED TO ALSO BE ONE. Steddie are so funny together, like a satirical piece on Romeo and Juliet, whyyyy did people decide to focus on the bullying and victimhood. It doesn’t suit the characters at all

I miss canon Eddie so much, Quinn put so much work into the feral stinky aspect AND YET

I think they also keep trying to, like, recreate the hype they got with Steve accidentally. (Which to an extent they did in Eddie I guess but in a weird way.) But it's hard to do that kind of thing on purpose, you know?

I agree also that Eddie definitely was meant in his own way to be like "king of freaks" or something similar. I think the king titles get tiresome after a while but social hierarchy wise? Most definitely. Which honestly is so much fun! I don't know why people don't lean into it more in a fun way instead of making it angsty. The rivalry they may or may not have could be so incredibly funny but they also make it "oh no :((((( look how mean everyone was". Honestly everyone in this show is casually kinda mean, with a few exceptions (Billy, Troy & James, later Jason) thats all it seems to be, at least if the characters we're introduced to.

Honestly, I'm not sure a lot of these people are actually Steve fans 😭 they don't seem to like Steve very much??? Like Steve fans do enjoy some good whump - either emotional or physical (some of the fics my mutes have read.... Insanity) - and I can attest to that! But like there has to be some pay off for that which a lot of these fics don't seem to have. I'm not sure if people just aren't thinking things through or what.

Also I totally agree I ADORE canon Eddie. He's awkward and a little cringe, and probably is a huge flirt but is very, very bad at it. (Joe Q.'s comment that 'Eddie is never as successful with girls as he thinks he is' lives rent free in my head.) He's dramatic and probably a little gross (at the very least his van must always smell like weed). He is soooo ADHD coded to me, and honestly is just a hilarious outsider pov type character (a dude who thinks he is a freak and a weirdo and then finds out the priss the jock and the loner are all in an actual monster fighting club with his mentees, what's better than this).

I think also when people go too hard into the "he was bullied :(((" thing as opposed to how he actually comes across in canon, is that you lose that narrative foil that makes him so interesting in the first place. Firstly, the obvious Steve parallels, but also I think people miss out on the fact that all of the Spicy Six (minus Argyle 💔) are portrayed when they're first introduced as very much caught up in their own worlds and opinions. Steve is the one who everyone points out because he's definitely has the like biggest and most obvious re-evaluation. But Nancy, Jonathan, and Robin I would argue do too?

Nancy is much more concerned with her new boyfriend who isn't her boyfriend than anything else, very focused on rebelling. She's seen as someone who is uptight and a priss acting out. Barb's disappearance and death completely shakes her foundation, causes her to completely reprioritize her life and what's important.

Jonathan's isn't done in like a great way, because the resolution with the pictures was lazy as hell. But arguably he is going through the same foundation changing first with Will disappearing and then with the pictures. He even says that he saw Nancy as shallow and forgot she was a real person. Them working together is - as poorly done as it is - a similar journey.

Robin's is less on screen, but she goes through a similar thing with the others, overcoming dumb high school biases and befriending Steve. Though hers like I said starts off screen because you get the vibe she started liking Steve before the Russians thing happened.

Eddie is literally going through the same thing. He says himself that he thought Steve was an asshole and that both Steve and Nancy were forcing him to reevaluate his prior biases. A big part of the older crowds upside down journey has always been growing as a person and learning that there's more than meets the eye with others, and moving past stupid high school cliques and biases. The fact so much of fandom ignores that Eddie is also super biased and is also reevaluating his thoughts completely detracts from his character and growth. Like I know the duffers love doing the petty high school "jocks suck and nerds rule" thing, but that doesn't mean fandom has to lol. I feel like giving Eddie all these reasons to not just hate jocks but hate Steve specifically just kinda undermines part of the journey.

Anyway I got WAYYYY off track. Wkenedk this has just been in my head for a while

[kmze]

HA! I had totally forgotten she had brown hair at the beginning! This is so weird and funny! To be honest,I always felt that flashback story was extremely unconvincing.I mean how come he held onto Katherine's picture for 145 years and went after Elena because of the resemblance but never even bothered to acknowledge Val even once!He met Lexi a year after,met Rebecca in the 1920s,met Caroline and told her about Lexi but somehow Val never popped up! Remember that 1864 Steferine scene where Stefan said something like I HAVE NEVER MET A WOMAN QUITE LIKE YOU. I touch you and my entire body ignites.I see you and I see an angel.I kiss you and I feel like I'm falling in love with you.Granted he didn't know that Katherine was a vampire at the time but he met her some 6 months after Val and completely forgot Val and then I'm supposed to believe 150 years later when Caroline asked him specifically about Val that's when he remembered and went all nostalgic?I remember Caroline even mentioned her name to Stefan when he went to rescue her in his house and he didn't even recognise her.A part of me wanted to believe maybe it was the memory of Val sleeping with him and leaving right after that caused him to turn Caroline down like that in the pilot episode (even though I'm pretty sure it wasn't.Stefan had made up his mind he was in love with Elena at the time.So he had the blinders on.Pilot Elena was the definition of Human Garbage btw), that Caro probably reminded him of Val but the writing never made that clear so yeah nevermind.

I loved 1864 human Stefan.He was a shy,hopeful,small town teenager.For some reason I couldn't connect with 1863 Stefan.I think my only takeaway from the whole thing was how clinically depressed he was six years after his mom's death that he would take his first sexual encounter to a cemetery which is exactly why,like you said,Lily's sudden death didn't make any sense because her entire narrative became about being a battered wife who died,dated a psycho vampire,died again.She was such a wasted potential.And the whole Julian revenge plot was probably the most dragged out dumb plot ever especially since they managed to kill him with a stupid chair under a cloaking spell which Val could have used anytime after 1863 and killed him instead of gladly travelling with him for 40 years.And I never understood why anyone was supposed to be scared of him when he was drinking away his manpain and racing cars.I mean Klaus,Katherine,Silas terrorised the entire town,went after Elena's friends,the heretics took Caroline and Elena's coffin but Julian was crying for Lily just like Damon and Alaric were crying for Elena and Jo.Stefan and Damon were in the stone for months.Wasn't that the perfect opportunity to do something terrible to the people they loved?I even remember Paul had said Julian would do something that would prove to be terrible even for TVD.What was it?

Dries sidelined Baroline too.Wasn't it her who wanted to cut the Baroline scene in the Halloween episode?It was my favourite scene of them.Baroline's lack of communication after Stefan got marked didn't make sense either.If Bonnie knew Stefan would die when Rayna did,she must have told her,right especially since they were exchanging baby pictures! Why wouldn't Caroline want to know where her boyfriend went instead go angry and refuse to read his letters?I mean I get her fury but so many things didn't add up.Also how come Caroline was okay with Bonnie taking pills while dating Enzo?Caroline would be the first person to object to all these! And then Dries was doing some BS interviews and everyone was losing their heads.I don't know how she even calls herself a writer!Such a disgrace!

Fandom and their motivated reasoning! Who cares? 7×21 was probably the only episode I actually enjoyed that season and I was so happy Stefan didn't respect Caroline's choice because when someone is going to hurt themselves in front of you,you don't stand there and watch.You do something about it.I HATED 3×22 and never understood why Stefan wouldn't save Elena especially since in s2 he told Elena that if he died it would still be okay since he had already lived whereas Elena had barely begun.Her death would be tragic not heroic.Caroline was 24-25 at the time(eternally 17).She had barely lived.Why would anyone in their right mind let her kill herself? It doesn't surprise me that the TVD fandom has a twisted idea of choices,freedom, and agency, since the show itself has presented twisted or nonexistent forms of all three for its entire run.Female agency was practically non-existent on this show, but a lack of agency had always been rampant, under the disguise of false agency.

I'm just finding it hilarious that discussing about s7 after so many years can feel so cathartic!I think as a fandom we had so much expectation going from s6 and then s7 crashed and burnt just like that!

Yeah I feel similar to the whole Valerie situation in how it felt like it was just trying to replicate the Katherine storyline but it really didn't work lol. Even in that podcast I watched Melinda was saying how Paul was groaning at playing a 16 year old in a flashback so that probably didn't help. I remember there was some overdramatic letter he sent to Damon that had me dying in the phoneix stone hell scenes that was like "the days grow darker but my heart grows darker still...." I think Neil wrote that too, he was the only one who really didn't GAF about SV or what Dries wanted. Yeah Stefan didn't think twice about Caroline in S1, he had already convinced himself he was in love with Elena before he met her. I don't think he really sees Caroline as anyone outside of Elena's friends until S2 and teaching her how to vampire. Yep I think Julie saved the Baroline scene and I also remember because I will forever be mad about this they cut a scene of Caroline and Stefan talking about everything with Valerie and the baby and Julian and Dries CUT IT! And Julie tried to do damage control on Twitter but that stung. I think Paul meant Julian killing the baby I don't think he realized what had aired so far, I also don't know why he'd say that when Damon killed a pregnant woman in 1994 and he covered it up.

Yeah I don't really get why Caroline wouldn't at least read one of the letters he sent or be more concerned for Bonnie. I love Caroline and most of the time I am on her side but with that I was like, IDK BB I think you're being a little harsh. I get she was mad and she had every right to be but she didn't even give him a chance to tell his side of the story knowing he was running from a huntress. I think Julie just did what she could to fix it (and this is why I think she was just doing damage control).

I don't hate the scene in 3x22 I am just shocked they actually did it! I mean he let the woman he loves, the person he was fighting to get back to that whole season die! To save Matt fucking Donovan! And I'm sorry but I cannot buy that he did it because he knew Elena would be so depressed if another one of her friends died because of her (RME) but I mean she'd still be alive. Stefan did that because he was so driven by his performance as "the good brother who lets Elena make her own choices" that he kept it up to the point that he let her die to respect her choice. That is just so insane. You can't even say it's because he respects that choice for the people he loves because when has he ever respected Damon's choice to die, it's literally the reason he's dead! I do think that moment was when he stops doing that though (he really struggles in S4 but I need my rewatch to really remember), and he never really does it with Caroline because he doesn't pretend with her like that. I mean Caroline definitely idolizes Stefan early on but the foundation of their bond as friends meant he didn't hide as much of the bad parts from her to take on that persona. I believe Caroline is the only person Stefan actually asked for help with his bloodlust, everyone else just tells him they're going to help him. Stefan also leans more into his meaness in the later seasons, like when he tried to kill Mary Louise so he could have sex with Caroline.

[latimeria-fell-from-heaven]

hi !! i have nothing to read and im horny so what r ur all-time favorite hentais ???

hi hi anon!

hooo boy, this one is gonna be a long one since i have a lot of favorite hentai's and my tastes have varied over the years. also same nonnie, me too.

nsfw/hentai below!

one // this one i've already recommended to another anon who asked for consentacle recommendations, but it's really cute and wholesome in my book since they both are happy and even have cute baby tentacles of their own at the end ( which i would like to snuggle btw ) so yes.

two // another one i've recommended to an anon who asked for it, but it shows how tentacles decided to actually not rape their female hosts and be wholesome with them, even protecting them from molesters and helping out with chores and such. so yep, if this ever happens, sign me the fuck up for getting tentacles of my own.

three // this one is in the tentacle shop series and the fourth installment, but i really like this one bc our mc, mitsuri actually gets a part-time job at the shop, and it's very much shown that another character in the series, shogo, is very much into her and finds her to be cute and even supervised her and teaches her the ropes of tentacles. so yep, 10/10 would work at a tentacle shop if it ever exists.

four // this one is pretty lewd from the get-go and doesn't involve tentacles, but trust me it's cute. the girl is pretty horny like nearly 24/7 ( girl same ) and even sucks him off at work, but they're living together at a pre-trial for marriage, which is consensual on both of their parts btw! the end always gets me, bc the guy "proposes" to her with a candy ring, but it's so fucking wholesome and cute and she's crying. and bruh i'd cry too if that happened to me.

five // dude this one was honestly pretty fucking funny ngl bc they're both insulting the shit out of each other and just being so fucking chaotic and literally everyone's just like hurry up and fucking date lol. like bro, i felt the girl on a spiritual level bc i've actually acted like that around people i liked, and i still do but now i just do it with my friends when they call me short lmao. anyways, the two end up in a hotel and take each other's virginity and actually start dating at the end and everyone's like oh y'all dating now? now you can lose your virginities, and they're both so embarrassed bc they literally just fucked the night before. really cute and funny!

six // a femdom one but it's actually consensual! anyways, she uses a blindfold on him bc it would heighten his senses and such, and he enjoys it very much and she rides him and then ends up overstimulating him afterward, which isn't shown in the panels. but he reassures her that he did enjoy himself. also plot twist ( ? ), he straight-up admits to being a sub and only dommed bc he felt that as a boyfriend he had to and asked her to dom him, which surprised her but she agrees nonetheless. it's pretty cute and wholesome, and i actually appreciate the whole consensual femdom thing bc most of them are either not or just have shota's in them. very much enjoyed this, the femdom in me was happey.

seven // we did it boys, we found the fucking wholesome shit. but fr, this one was so cute and warmed my heart. the art itself is gorgeous like i legit forgot it was hentai i was reading and not some aesthetic love story. they do take each other's virginities but they are both absolutely okay with it, and the day after he takes a cute pic of her and makes it his wallpaper. like, sir??? yes??? getchu a wholesome and loving relationship like this,,,

eight // another wholesome one, but it starts out with our mc asking out the girl, and it's kinda sad bc the girl admits she doesn't have any friends bc of her stoic and scary look, but she's actually pretty shy and appreciates the mc asking her out. he then makes it his mission to take her out on a lot of dates and make her happy. he does have a jealous moment and sort of takes it out on her, but he realizes he fucked up and apologizes to her. they do have sex out behind the cafe and she loses her virginity, but afterward, they actually discuss telling their relationship to her boss and even talk about going on another date again. so yesss,, really cute and actually wholesome.

these are my favs that i tend to find myself going back to, so i hope you'll enjoy these as much as i do nonnie!

(Belated) TFATWS 1.3 roundup

This will probably be surprising to anyone whom I’ve subjected to my megaton of tfatws reblogs--but ep 1.3 was my least favorite of the series so far. And unfortunately every time I try to put together my breezy little liveblogging impressions, I get immediately stuck wanting to write ten paragraphs of WHY it’s my least favorite, which, in so many words: too little Sam POV. And by this time, plenty of other people who agree with me on this have written plenty of thoughtful threads on why, so I am just going to...let it go. For the moment. (And maybe just make it a separate ten-paragraph post.) Anyway, tl;dr:

I still enjoyed the episode

I’m still loving the show

I still think we’ll get emotional and dramatic payoff; BUT

I’m disappointed with my fave’s treatment this time around.  

Okay! Got it down to one paragraph and a bulleted list. Onward.

I’m relieved that Isaiah is at least in the previouslys.

I dunno, man, that cheesy commercial alone doesn’t make the GRC seem like the good guys, even before you follow it up with Walker throwing his weight around.

“Do you know who I am?” And just like that, Walker shows his true colors and proves he’s not worthy of the legacy. Because he’s a person who allows power and fame to corrupt him.

So is Zemo Nazi/Hydra or is he just a Nazi/Hydra fanboy? 

“What are you reading?” “Machiavelli.” “Yeah, you definitely seem like the kind of guy to break out of high-security prison. This is a good idea.”

“We are NOT breaking him out!!!” *puppy dog eyes* “sigh. fine”

I know the fandom loves Zemo, but man he is a little bitch. It literally takes him three minutes to start breaking down both Bucky and Sam. How the fuck did he even get his hands on Bucky’s notebook? (see below) Excuse me, Steve’s notebook. <x3

“Heartbreaking: Worst person you know just made a great point.”--> Sam re: Zemo and Marvin Gaye.

So Karli is friends with a cute little girl, sees her mother/mentor die unnecessarily, and just wanted to be a teacher when she grew up, and we think she’s the villain? NO.

This is getting super long so....below.

Heartbreaking Pt. 2: Yes, Sam, Zemo is right and you look good in the suit. (That is impeccable pattern matching, btw. I did not watch seven seasons of Project Runway for nothing.)

Okay, I should save this for my ten-paragraph bitching post but: I KNOW the trope of “undercover guy has to eat something gross to pass” is objectively funny. But Sam is from Louisiana.  I can guarantee you the man has eaten frog and/or alligator AT LEAST once. In fact, since the family business is shrimping, there’s a non-zero chance that he has prepared and served super-gross foods such as six-inch sea cockroaches with heads and ganglia attached. He should NOT have been fazed by a cocktail with fresh snake gonads or whatever those were. You know what would have been a funny take? Sam knocks back the drink, then says: “Delicious. And [pointing to Zemo] one for my friend here.”  (AM is hilarious here though.)

“Power Broker, really?” Goes with “Smiling Tiger is a bad name” and “Battlestar? Stop the car!” (Frankly, a person still going by “Winter Soldier” does not have a lot of room to criticize here...)

How does Zemo wearing a cool coat and dancing like a cute dork make up for what he’s doing to Bucky here? Sebstan had tears shining in his eyes. 

Love language: “You good?”

The layers of Sam, an African American man from the South, watching another human, his friend, apparently being sold...

REALLY? Sam didn’t put his phone on silent? (Bless Sarah for being a civilian and not playing along...)

HOWEVER this is a pretty ugly reminder in this episode when Zemo is throwing around his zillions and his private plane while Sam can’t get a loan to save his family business.

Was it Sharon who killed Selby? I’m confused?

Sharon! Being the poster woman for landing on her feet. Good for her. And thank you, Sharon, for having a wardrobe of men’s wear in Bucky and Sam’s sizes. Although if you could have gotten one of them to wear that sequined number...

It is just hard to accept that Steve and the Avengers did her SO dirty that they simply ignored her in the two years they were on the run. (It also doesn’t gibe with Sam and even Bucky seeming to know Sharon, since they never met before CW.) Come to think of it though, I don’t remember how Steve even got himself pardoned after IW?

I’ve read the theories that she might be the Power Broker, which seems unlikely purely on the practical basis that if she was blipped for five years she’d lose her standing, but this is Marvel, so who cares about making sense? If she is, I hope she’s not treated as a flat-out villain; maybe she deliberately let Karli and her group get the SS serum rather than Hydra wannabes? 

Let’s hear it for Sharon--kicking ass and not even bothering with the names.

Nagel is the most villainous villain who has villained here so far. What a waste.

So there are up to twelve SS serum doses left. Calling it now: Walker is going to do whatever he has to in order to get his hands on one of them.

However I do NOT want Sam to take one. He doesn’t need to be superpowered to be a hero.

“Partners each convinced the other is the sidekick.” 

We’ve all been waiting for this callback.

That had better not be the last of Sharon. She has her own minion--this should be good.

Look: the only reason Bucky would even CONSIDER taking the shield is that Sam says he doesn’t want it. (And I’m not sure he even IS seriously considering it so much as trying to make Sam reconsider.)

So I said this elsewhere but: apparently Zemo is redeemable. Sharon killed about fourteen people this episode alone. Bucky killed “almost everyone he ever met.” Sam offed helicopters full of terrorists in ep 1. Karli’s victims are not exactly innocent--they are hoarding resources meant for those refugee children and sick people.  I am not giving up on my daughter for this. ;-)

Heartbreaking #3: Bucky and Sam were dead for five years so it’s not exactly fair to call them out for not visiting the Sokovia memorial but...would they have thought of it?

WAKANDA! Finally! They’ve been teasing it since ep 1 but I didn’t think we’d actually get there. (Although I’m 100% sure that Shuri is one of the nine numbers in Bucky’s phone.)

Not a lot of Sambucky this time around, although we did get

Sam being a sweetly worried boyfriend throughout. Sam calling him “Buck” at least three times--with no pushback. 

Bucky very determinedly NOT looking at ALL at shirtless Sam. Not at all. 

And POSSIBLY Bucky reading a self-help book about forming strong erotic love relationships.

So I watched LUCIDS 1-4 without any prior knowledge...

and here were my thoughts. I didn’t watch any backstory or anything so enjoy my suffering.

PART 1

“So what happens when the people inside of their dreams go to sleep?” They die

“What happens when we wake up? Do they go on living while we’re not there?” THEY DIE-

“Who are they anyway?” they’re faces that our brain catalogs and stores for later use, although it’s also arguable that every time we dream we go to an alternate reality and inhabit the body of another version of ourselves. Now, were you in a car accident and trapped underwater or-

Are they twins?

(Me tuning out to do something)

“-the squirrel in spongebob was your soulmate, making you a Sandy simp-”

Me, snapping back to the video: hold up-

“[get him to] eat your apple”

[in the dream sequence] weird dream, but ive had weirder. now, Why Pamper’s-

why does he suddenly have a knife-

“You put a filter on the Dreamscape feed?”

“Technically, you are seven years old.”

Is the apple a reference to religion or does the creator just really ilke apples?

quinn? calling himself jasper? u sure hes not just nonbinary? is this just a metaphor for transphobic parenting?

“He died... but somewhere, he grew up.” So is your plan to take a Quinn from a different universe and make him your own, thereby robbing another version of yourself from happiness? When does this ever go well?

Yknow most people, when they lose a kid,,,, kinda,,,,,,, dont go on a ceaseless quest to find another version of their kid that grew up without knowing that another version of his mother was invading other peoples’ dreams to find and kidnap him,,,,,,,, like aint u got a therapist-

IS HILLS THE VILLAIN AFTER ALL ORRRRR

wait but if ben sees the apple wont he realize that his reality is wrong and his reality will change, making it so that hills doesnt get her son? or is there some time-based rule that says they’re only transported to the reality that the person believes at that moment? or is this another stab at the multiverse thing where an infinite amount of hills gets their happy endings while an infinite amount of hills doesnt and etc etc?

[just-like-playing-tag]

A Letter from Norman reactions

Tonight I was feeling like reorganizing the notes I took after reading the novel for the first time. Just some random personal reactions I had after reading it; if anything catches your attention and you'd like to know more about a particular event from the novel, please feel free to ask and I'll be happy to help!!!

Under the cut because it's l o n g. That is, if Tumblr allows me to add a "read more", which has never happened before, but I'll keep hoping in it.

• Disclaimer: I'm suing anyone who ever said that the novel is all about NorEmma. I've literally put off reading it because I didn't want to get into something overly romantic while there's??? Nearly nothing about it that is romantic??????? Just a slight mention in that last chapter and that's it???????? Why are y'all like this

Prologue

• I need you all to know that the important letter™ through which Norman informed Emma about his plan starts with him describing the weather. I just think it's a relevant information.

• Ok I'm at freaking page 1 of “A letter from Norman” and. NORMAN IT'S A FREAKING LETTER TO EMMA NOT A SHAKESPEAREAN PLAY THERE'S LITERALLY NO REASON TO BE THIS POETIC

Maybe, I would get it if it was directed to Ray, but to Emma?????

Chapter 1

• Emma in 2038: Let's befriend ghosts

Emma in 2047: let's befriend demons

Seems like a logic consecution to me

• Ok but why has nobody ever mentioned the extremely precious Emma / Gilda moments in the novel???? My heart was completely melting that was the most adorable thing I've ever read??????

• The way Norman is constantly in awe of Ray is so adorable... Baby is so sweet I swear, he deserves the world

Chapter 2

• OK BUT THE SWEET EXCHANGE between Ray and Isabella before him and Emma go out at night?????? Ray is so pure is swear... He's a precious baby who didn't deserve all the shit he went through.

Reporting it in case anyone's curious; for context, Norman is sick, and Emma wants to go out look for a flower that she's read is going to help him feel better. Emma and Ray are convinced that Norman is going to die because babies are just that dramatic, and easily impressionable as well. They're seven here.

“ «Ray, I'm counting on you!»

Isabella pressed an hand on the boy's shoulder, who turned his face to her and diligently nodded, before continuing: «Differently from Emma, I don't think the flower is going to help Norman heal».

«What do you mean?»

«However, it's better than having to sit back and watch without doing anything. I too, like her, want him to heal as soon as possible.»

«Sure, I understand...» ”

NOW that hits so hard. You have to understand, this is after Ray had made the deal with Isabella. He had already started to plan the escape. In this occasion, he was on a very thin line: alone at night with Emma, outside the House, a child who knew the truth. Isabella knew those were the right conditions for him to attempt an escape, so she decided to test his loyalty; one misstep, and their deal - which was fundamental for the escape Ray was planning - would have ended.

But at the same time, Ray needed to go. Because, just like Emma, he just couldn't stand to lose Norman. And to see these three children caring so deeply about each other even at such a young age makes me honestly bawl. This is quite certainly my favorite thing from this series. And Ray deserves the world.

• Ray was so determined to save his two friends, he even considered for a moment, in the woods, to tell Emma the truth about the orphanage. I find it very nice how the novel hinted of all these times Ray almost revealed the truth, it really puts emphasis on how he was trying to find the best moment for the escape- but it also hints to how desperate he was to share this grievous burden he was forced to carry for the longest time.

• “ Ray, you must keep on living, Norman whispered to himself like a prayer. ”

I'm... I'M 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺

Doesn't help the fact that this bit was literally at the end of pages of Norman praising Ray and how brave he had been for so long.

• “ Nobody in the House would have wanted for Ray to pay with his life to amend the silence of all those years. ”

I love this bit. Nobody between the children ever hated Ray for speechlessly assisting to dozens of his siblings being lead to death, because they all immediately understood how much he was suffering, how powerless he must had felt, and also, even though it only led to him being even more hurt, how deeply he loved them all. It's really nice to realize that no children ever hated Ray- no one besides from himself. His siblings love him unconditionally, and that's precisely what he deserves 🤧🤧💕💕💕

• Norman: *adventures in a detailed description of Ray's features and gestures for no other apparent reason than the fact that he finds him pretty*

Chapter 3

• Ok I know people use to see Ray and Susan's interactions under the light of Ray having a crush on her but honestly? I think they make the cutest brotp. I never knew how much I needed Ray-having-an-older-sister content untill now.

• For real though!! What hits you really hard is to find out, even though he would had never ever showed it, how desperate he was to have somebody care about him, and to be loved. He literally grieves for losing someone that looks after him and is there to check on him in his lowest days- we know it's the thing Isabella never gave him. Man, this boy didn't deserve all the shit that happened to him. Tpn may have become an old known story for me, but Ray's sufferings in his early age will never stop tearing my heart apart.

• Ok, I wasn't ready for all this angst on Ray's part. I mean, I obviously know GF were hard times for him, but I didn't expect for him to take over the pov. Sis, how wrong I was. Now I'm crying.

• Coming to the realization that Ray's initial plan actually was to bring everyone in the escape, but he clearly had to give up on it after having realized it would have been impossible to save them 🥺🥺🥺

(I mean it was not impossible. He believed it was. But it wasn't.)

• Ok but. The last part of the Ner chapter. I really don't want to spoil it for anyone because it really was a beautiful chapter but I really need to say: Emma and Norman. The way it wasn't just Ray always being there for them, protecting them from afar; no matter their blissful ignorance, they have always been there for him too. They never abandoned that lonely boy, and they made it so that he could have a last reason not to give up. A single, dim light of hope in that pitch black, devastating world he was born in. I may or may not be crying my eyes out.

(Btw I had written this before the Ray special chapter came out, and it's kinda funny to look back at it now)

• The thing with the Ner chapter is: you enter in it after reading two chapters of normal, wholesome children's stories. There's a dark undertune in it, but it's very subtle and it doesn't interfere with the happy, cheerful atmosphere of these children facing adventures together with each other. But then the Ner chapter strikes, and the Ray pov arrives, and it's like being beaten with a bat in the stomach several times. Deep down, you had always known it; but you suddenly realize that all these children are going to die. And, even worse, there's one child who knows. There's one child who has to assist to everything powerlessly. There's one child, one freaking-nine-years-old who knows that all his siblings are going to die, and there's nothing he can do. That a single mistake could ruin the chances of making just two of his siblings survive, which is everything he's hanging to right now. One child who only needs to be loved. Well that... That hits hard.

Me expressing my thoughts: girl this form is shit you can't write something that is understandable to save your life can you

• Also can we please appreciate Norman taking so long to get out of the forest as it's a recurrent characterizzation of his character to be desperately willing to live just *French chef kiss*

• I really like how the novel underlined how Norman's choice of sacrificing himself corresponded to a betrayal toward his friends (when you think about it, Emma definitely felt betrayed). It's almost like in his last moments Norman chose to switch roles with Ray, taking on his shoulders the burden of being both the traitor and the sacrifice.

Chapter 4

• Norman: * “ He instinctively closed his eyes and abandoned himself to the sweet memory of that time he understood how deeply loved he was. ” *

Somewhere, Ray: Can't relate

• Emma: Norman, what you want to do when you grow up?

Norman: It's a secret.

Me:

• “ Ray woke up before everyone, as usual. ”

A remarkable detail. You'd think Ray, as a good depressed person as he is, would sleep more than the average. The truth is: he doesn't sleep at all.

• Norman: There's... Another person I like

Me:

• OK NOW WHY did none tell me about the nine (9) lines of Norman / Don interacting it was worth reading the novel solely for that.

• WHY DID NONE TELL ME ABOUT DON ALMOST STRANGLING NORMAN AND MAKING HIM LITERALLY PASS AWAY IT WAS TOTALLY WORTH READING THE NOVEL SOLELY FOR THAT

• Reading about Conny being there hurts a lot but reading about Sadie and Hao brings up a totally different kind of pain. Also who the hell is Cindy?

• Norman: Oh yes, Emma and Ray, my most dear friends, my closest siblings, the reason I wake up in the morning, my only reason to live, the ones I'd entrust my life with,

Also Norman: Dunnot in the last thirteen hours and six minutes they have been acting pretty sus, I'm kinda sure they're betraying me somehow ://

• “ «I agree, but it feels like you've fallen down a rabbit hole. You're restless, you constantly look off...» said the raven haired boy, distorting his mouth in an hardly intelligible grimace and giving his friend a meaningful look.

«Norman, about that mysterious girl...»

«No, you're mistaken! I...»

Norman, filled with frustration, raised up his voice, starting to lose the coolness that was usually characteristic of him.

«But I haven't said anything yet!»

That being said Ray, with slightly mocking doing, turned on his feet and went away, leaving Norman like that. ”

I LOVE THIS BIT SO INEXPLICABLY MUCH I'm always *so* in for Oreo finishing each other sentences / reading each other's thoughts. Here, Norman answered Ray's question before he could even expose it, because he already knew what it would have been. Equally, Ray knew what Norman was going to say even though he cut his answer halfway through.

I love how much on the same page they are, they really... Totally and fully understand each other even without words, and I find it so sweet. Seriously, their dynamic is so wholesome

• Norman's last birthday gift: the thing that matters the most to him: his family's happiness

Emma's reward: the thing that matters the most to her: her family's happiness

Some things hit harder than others.

• I don't know like. When you read the novel after the series has ended, everything hurts so much more, because you know these are all memories Emma has lost forever.

• So you made colorful clothing by "coloring old clothes"? Have fun realizing y'all have celebrated Norman's birthday wearing your dead siblings' clothes

Bonus this epic note I randomly took I completely forgot the context of:

• Isabella is a bitch. I don't give a fuck about your dramatic past woman, leave that boy alone

(When the protect Ray mood hits™)

[juminsmysticmc]

Can you do RFA + V and Saeran with MC who is very insecure about a scar on their chest from a heart surgery? Sorry if that's a little specific you dont have to do it if you dont want to

⚠️RFA + Minor Duo with a MC who is very insecure about a scar on her chest from a heart surgery Trigger Warnings

Hey dear! Are you alright? I hope so, none should feel insecure about their scars because ,,You should know you’re beautiful just the way you are, and you don’t have to change a thing the world could change its heart No scars to your beautiful we are stars and we are beautiful,’’ this song was once my favorite one! I wish you the best, my love! BTW, I am watching a KDrama which is about a girl with heart surgery and I thought this was a pretty funny coincidence….Okay! Now enjoy!

Jumin

Happy about your husband’s presents from Italy, you opened the package.

Your hands uncovered the package from the thin satin and opened the blue box.

A beautiful white dress with little pearls on it decollects.

You had to gasp due to its beauty.

,,Jumin, there was no need!’’ you giggled and pulled it out to take a better look at it.

,,My love, nothing in the world would be enough for you,’’ he confessed and stroked your hair to give you a kiss on your cheek and ask you to put it on.

You nodded and took the dress with you to change into the beautiful dress.

However, as soon as you had it on and looked at yourself in the mirror, you noticed something extremely ugly.

Your heart ached as you softly brushed over the big scar on your chest.

,,Ugly,’’ you whispered.

,,Such a beautiful dress and here you are, destroying its beauty,’’ you hissed to yourself and tried to cover the scar.

Just when you tried to put your hand over the spot, someone took your hand.

,,Beautiful,’’ someone you knew told you.

,,That is the sign of true beauty. Strength, hope, beauty. This dress fits perfectly on you. I am proud of you and your fight. You had a weak heart, but you could fight. You should be proud of this scar and show it off, instead of hiding it,’’ Jumin told you and kissed your soft lips.

Maybe he was right after all.

Even though you were still unsure, with him by your side who didn’t think badly of you, you could endure it.

Zen

,,Let’s go to the beach!’’ Yoosung begged in the chatroom, causing everyone to feel energetic and agree with the blond boy.

Well, everyone except you.

As you looked through your wardrobe, you couldn’t find a single bikini that could cover your scar.

You gulped.

Zen already saw your scar. He knew what the ugly spot on your scar looked like.

The other members of the RFA didn’t.

And you really didn’t want to tell them.

You didn’t want to worry them or even talk about the issue you had.

The reason why you had to sit down so often, why you couldn’t go into the water and swim with them, or why you couldn’t run.

You just didn’t want to tell them, but thanks to the scar you probably had to.

Tears began to flow as you feared their reaction.

Suddenly, Zen came in a big smile on his face which disappeared as soon as he saw your tears.

,,Jagyia, is everything alright?’’ he worriedly asked you, brushing your cheek and looking at your face.

You looked up at him and suddenly hugged him, telling him about how unsure you were.

,,But Mc,’’ he began and looked at you.

,,It’s okay. They will understand. They will accept it and won’t do anything to make you feel uncomfortable, I promise. And if they do, I’ll fight them.

But you don’t need to feel scared at all…’’ he tried to tell you.

,,But if you really don’t feel ready yet, it’s okay. I will always support you and love you. So let’s stay at home if it makes you feel better. Or let’s go quickly and grab a new swimsuit which can cover the part you want. Whatever you decide, princess, I will understand and support you,’’ he whispered, making you feel much better.

,,It’s okay,’’ you mumbled, taking his hand and nodded.

,,You give me strength.’’

Yoosung

,,I’m so excited,’’ Yoosung gasped and hugged you from behind.

The both of you agreed on today.

It was odd that you guys kept talking about it, but you really prepared for the night.

The night.

You would lose your virginity to him tonight. You guys agreed on today.

But on the other hand, you still didn’t feel ready yet.

You were struggling.

Your poor heart was beating crazily and you felt it.

The stabbing pain in your chest whenever your heart was beating too quickly.

Immediately, you grabbed the painful spot and went down on your knees.

,,Mc!’’ he called out to you and got down for you to check on his beloved girlfriend.

When you were better, you finally told him the issue.

,,I was panicking,’’ you began, looking at him.

,,I was scared because… you’ve never seen it. The scar,’’ you said the last sentence in a whisper.

Yoosung looked at you.

,,Scar?’’ he repeated after you.

The soft shirt in front of your chest disappeared as you showed him your skin and the red scar which was left from your last heart surgery.

,,I have a weak heart. Luckily, I’m alright now, but in the past you could say that I lived in the hospital. I’m alive, but in order for me to stay alive I need to pay a price. I think that my price is this scar,’’ you quickly tried to cover your body again when Yoosung stopped you.

,,You look amazing. It’s beautiful. You are. There’s no need to worry. I love you. Not for your beauty, but for who you are.

You are, Mc. You are you,’’ he whispered and kissed you.

,,We don’t have to do anything tonight. Let’s just relax and cuddle,’’ with that he hugged you and laid back.

You wondered inside your head how much it took him to act like that, smiling at him and hugging him.

,,Thank you.’’

Jaehee

The reflection in the mirror showed you and the scar.

The one which was left from the surgery you had just a bit ago when you suddenly collapsed on your girlfriend Jaehee.

It all went so quickly.

One moment ago, you were laughing with Zen and Yoosung as well as with her in your shop and the next moment you felt pure pain and just fell backwards.

Their screams were still in your head.

The moment was so surreal.

And so, the long journey of you and your illness began.

But you won.

However, you now had the scar from this war, making you insecure about everything.

You didn’t even allow Jaehee to look at you yet.

However, the woman you thought of entered the room just at that moment, making you shriek and cover the scar with your hands.

,,Mc,’’ Jaehee spoke up, approaching you.

She grabbed your hand and made sure that she could see the spot.

,,You‘re gorgeous,’’ she said and looked up at you, tears flowing down as her chest was naked.

,,I know, this isn’t the best way,’’ Jaehee apologized.

,,But I just wanted to say that I love you. I love you and this part of you. I’m sorry if I made a mistake. Just know that I like you,’’ just when she was about to stop you, you grabbed her and fell in her arms, hugging her.

,,I’m sorry for leaving you out for so long. It’s ugly… I thought you would never want to watch me again…’’ you confessed and sobbed in her arms.

,,I love you,’’ Jaehee whispered, brushing your scar and softly kissing you.

Saeyoung

,,Why do we always have to turn off the lights? Is it some kink?’’ Saeyoung asked you as he stood next to the light switch.

You began to fumble with your fingers.

He was right. He wanted to see you after all. But even after you began to live in his house, you didn’t want to show him your body.

The scar on your chest.

It made you feel insecure and scared that he wouldn’t want to touch you anymore.

You looked down, without giving him an answer until he spoke up again.

,,Is it because of the scar? Your heart surgery?’’ he suddenly asked you as if he already knew about your childhood.  It was as if he already knew every detail.

It was as if he spent the birthdays with you in the hospital room. It was as if he opened the Christmas presents with you.

Slowly, your eyes stayed glued on his figure.

,,You knew?’’ you asked him, unsure about how you should react.

,,Yes, well, I had to do a background check on you, remember? And I found out… and I simply began to think, you know...?’’ he tried to explain.

You slowly began to smile while the tears began to fall down on the soft bed sheets.

,,I’m sorry…’’ you mumbled.

,,Don’t be,’’ Saeyoung whispered and hugged you, stroking your back.

,,It must have been hard on you, right? It’s okay, yeah? Mc, look at me. You can do whatever you want. I can switch off the light. Sorry for saying that dumb joke earlier.

But you can also show me the scar. We can talk. I love you. Whatever you decide, it’s okay with me so don’t worry, please…’’ Saeyoung begged you when he cupped your cheeks, making you smile at his cute words.

Saeran

You nibbled at your lips as you counted the pills you had to take.

,,Two, three… six…’’ you sighed.

This wasn’t a life you wanted to live forever.

Suddenly, Saeran walked in, something he never did while he was still working.

Jumin gave him three days of home office work in the week since he was also still weak and not good with too many people.

That’s when your boyfriend saw you with the pills.

Observing you, he immediately understood that it was something serious.

Something he still didn’t know back then.

,,Tell me,’’ he ordered and sat down next to you.

As if he would attack you any moment. you put your hands over your chest.

,,Heart?’’ he whispered, his voice was trembling. You could see that he was about to cry.

,,It’s… yes. My heart. But I’m better and stronger now. It’s just… I need to take them. It’s okay…’’ you nodded.

,,Then, why do you still look so sad?’’ Saeran asked you, brushing your hair with his hand and smiling at you.

You couldn’t hide anything from him, could you?

,,It’s… now you found out… and so, you will soon see my scar too… And I’m scared of that day,’’ you told him honestly.

Your boyfriend nodded at your words and took your hand, kissing them and looking into your eyes again.

,,It’s you. It’s still you. It’s normal to feel insecure. I do too… everyone does. That’s another reason to show everyone and be proud. Especially you, who won a fight, Mc… you can always talk to me and I will never make you do something that makes you feel uncomfortable, but know that you are good enough,’’ he told you, making you feel stronger and full of bravery.

Jihyun

,,I had an open heart surgery when I was little. I can’t even remember. My mother just told me about it,’’ you told Lucy.

Your hands were trembling and you were sweating.

You were scared and you could feel the urge to throw up.

Fear grew bigger and bigger as the little child observed you. Her eyes were glued on your chest.

,,Did it hurt?’’ she asked you.

Trying to fake a smile, you told her that you couldn’t remember, but that you guessed that you weren’t in pain at all.

You already scared her with the ugly scar. There was no way that you would tell her that you probably were in a lot of pain.

You were just becoming secure about the scar thanks to Jihyun, but right now you felt just like the first couple of times when he saw you naked.

Just that this time, your daughter saw you and began to cry in panic when she saw it, making you feel bad about it too.

,,Mommy needs to rest now, okay? You can go and play in the living room. I will follow you soon,’’ Jihyun quickly said, smiling at his adopted daughter and quickly hugging you as soon as she was outside.

,,You did well! My Mc is so strong and so brave! Well done…!’’ he told you and patted your head as you began to shed a few tears.

,,Jihyun, what if she will be disgusted by me now?’’ you asked him, scared for the future mother-daughter relationship.

,,Don’t worry,’’ he began.

,,She’s a good girl. She was just shocked because she thought that you were hurt, not because you seemed disgusting to her. Don’t worry, okay?’’ he asked you and kissed your soft lips, ready to make you lie down.

The thing about you needing to rest wasn’t a lie after all.

And so, you luckily went to sleep reassured.

TW: ALCOHOLISM, DEATH, ABUSE

GETTING TO KNOW WELLS

gender / pronouns: cismale / he/him

orientation: hetero

children: lane morrison (intro here), and probably a few others but that’s for future plots!!

WHAT’S HIS STORY ?

wells’ blood runs thick through this town to a long line of morrisons, and they sure as hell make SURE everyone knows it. rumors have flown around about the morrison family for generations, eyes roll when they enter a space (at least in wells’ experience) & they own a reputation of chaos. scaring away newcomers just by being themselves. and of course, like it was in his dna, wells’ actions would align with those that preceded him.

he grew up on a plot of land bought many moons ago by his great great ... grandfather / uncle /  (the story changes every time he hears it) w/ a few trailer-like one story homes with broken screen doors & random “antiques” in the yard aka things that people in fair lane were throwing out that everyone THOUGHT would be needed one day. (still lives here btw!!!)

growing up around family was FINE but it reminded him of his destination - what he was going to end up like anyway, DESPITE being kinda smart in school & having larger dreams. the family was scrappy, deceitful; wells learned at an early age how to manipulate people to get what he wanted. he was taught how to STEAL, lie, charm, and how to get by with what they had.

wells spent most of his childhood at his uncle’s home, just a few minute walk away on the plot bc his own home wasn’t ideal. he looked up to the guy A LOT, but hasn’t spoken since he left mapleview for bigger and better things when wells was just 15.

his father, a returned drafted vietnam vet, took out the anger of what he witnessed / how he was treated / how life was UNFAIR out on his family, and often times physically. he wasn’t involved in wells’ life all too much, only when he needed something or wanted to let off some steam. 

his mother was a caring & loving woman, also mapleview grown (the two had been high school sweethearts), but loyal to a FAULT, always choosing her husband to back. 

screams, crashes, fights, fires - you name it. needless to say, that plot of morrison homes never had it quiet, easy. cops knew everyone by first and last name and could drive the route from the station to the morrison’s home with their eyes closed.

wells’ father DIED when he was 19 (although wells hadn’t considered him alive for a while) & no one knew HOW so there was never any closure for him, his mother, his fam... all his death provided was another source for the rumor mill surrounding the morrisons. was it a bad bar fight ? did he have a bad fall ? wrong pills ? some say his mother was a killer but he knew better than that.

wells’ mother is still live & somewhat well, living with his brother in a house about 20 minutes away. at her old age, it’s hard for her to do things on her own and it was decided that wells - the youngest of his generation - wouldn’t be able to care after her, let alone care for himself. she’s been there for about 10 years now and still complains every minute.

ok back to our boy. somehow wells managed to destroy every good thing that ever came his way. self-destructive due to self-hatred and REGRET which never got better as he got older and continued to well, destroy things. a slippery slope, for sure.

alongside his uncle, always dreaming of getting out of this small town, wells was good ENOUGH at school and that was his way. but of course it didn’t happen: 1. he fell into fulfilling prophecy of his predecessors, 2. he had not a PENNY to his name to leave (i.e. gambling addiction), 3. he had a child in his early twenties, 4. he tried to fight the admissions counselor at the nearby community college

having some sort of love in his life. didn’t happen: 1. he pushed/pushes everyone that dare get too close (mostly selfishly), 2. couldn’t change his addictive personality (i.e. alcoholism), 3. began to resemble his father, 4. has 0 emotional intelligence and cannot touch feelings/emotions

to get a job and be a normal person in society. didn’t happen bc: 1. has a narcissist complex, 2. would steal from the cash register, 3. would hit on customers, 4. doesn’t understand paying “taxes”

more to add here

BASICALLY, he’s lived a life. he acts as though his life is already over, there’s nothing to lose, nothing to gain and this is just how it will be for the rest of his time on earth. he’s despondent and lives far too much in the PAST, blaming himself for everything that came his way (but ok he’s not too far off tbh).

although MANY a regret linger in his mind before sleep, his largest regret is losing his family - the love of his life who LEFT the two high and dry just after about a year together and his son who moved out at just 16. the mother of his child was the only person he remembers that saw him for more than rumors, his facade and became a good influence to him - but OF COURSE he fucked that one up and she left. he blames himself big time, but would never show that. only hatred her way aloud. 

his son, lane, left while still a boy just like himself, and it HURT to think that the apple hardly fell from the tree above, not able to be a good father. never TAUGHT how to be one. manipulative to a fault, wells would always say the younger was never appreciative, never UNDERSTOOD... and he’d convince himself that his son hated him as much as he hates himself. he’ll also say he’s the only reason he’s still alive. LOVE / HATE seems to blur so often for the old man here. always did.

the only constant throughout his life has been alcohol. the morrison’s start off early of course, and wells was drinking/etc on his own by the time he was 12. UNLESS you count the bourbon his father would feed him to sleep as a baby. what started off as social and partying as he grew older, became something much more ugly. his body didn’t just crave it, it NEEDED it to function by the time he was in his early twenties. it was easier to hide it then, all young and into a good time but it wouldn’t just last for weekends. he’d need a drink to get by mentally, and physically and became fully dependent. a depressant to match his mental illness.

WHO IS HE ?

he has a DEEP southern accent with a hard RASP that sounds as though he smokes a pack a day (because he does). 

despite graduating high school (i KNOW, believe it), he doesn’t have a vocabulary too wide and will use larger words incorrectly all the time.

can have a bit of an old grumpy man aesthetic, easily belligerent, even though he’s only in his 40s and can be charming as hell too (that smile!!!! ok!!! knows how to manipulate.)

he doesn’t trust the government at ALL and is a bit of a conspiracy theorist, despite collecting money from the government each week for unemployment. he refuses to pay taxes so only does jobs under the books. will go on a tangent about how the government is creating diseases, hiding aliens; eat the rich, etc... he also doesn’t trust cops at all, despite being picked up and taken home by them at least once a week.

grew up on rock and roll! had a band in the 80s where he could’ve SWORN they’d be rich and famous. long hair, tight pants, acting out - wannabe motley crue.

drives (ILLEGALLY) an old ford from the 70′s that somehow still works, after losing his license years ago from too many DWIs. 

i assume all of the town knows him as the town DRUNK. maybe it used to be funny back in the day, but now it’s just really SAD. he’s a nuisance. 

WHO DOES HE KNOW ?

y/c HIRED him for some odd jobs, must be under the table.

HIGH SCHOOL BUDDIES who also stayed around mapleview. they can be friendly, enemies now, distanced, a lot to do here.

a BROTHER / step (which i might submit to the main :))

a ONE-NIGHT stand

a GOOD INFLUENCE who tries their best to get him working towards something better. fair warning, this would 9.99/10 times not work.

where wells is the BAD INFLUENCE to y/c, convincing them to drink a ton, giving horrible advice when they’re in their most vulnerable state.

a STORE OWNER that has banned wells from entering their establishment due to a prior mishap.

a DEALER of all things wells shouldn’t, but does.

THE HILLS by the weeknd - a plot where these two are hooking up or together but only in secret. whether that’s because they’re in different socioeconomic classes, have a bad history, the other is cheating... they have to hide.

WHITE KNUCKLES - they’ve previously had a bar fight, are known enemies. could’ve been something said about his family, his past.

[dr-nero-is-god]

1, 9, and 11 for the hive questions!

1- already answered this one here!

9-  which minor character did you want to see more of? which major character do you wish there was less of?

i would have been so down to keep constance & verity around for a few more books. why are they with sebastian trent? do they believe in the cause or are they just getting paid? would they have been anti-overlord? what if they became raven’s friends? what would a girl’s night out with raven, c, and v look like? like COME ON. girls who are also assassins and friends?? the possibilities are endless here, people

on the flip side, i think i would have preferred if tom and penny didn’t just hop in at the end there. i feel like we know as an established fact that we have six characters who matter, and so whatever happened to tom and penny was never going to be permanent... ya know?

11-  talk about your favorite character. what you like about them, their line or scene you like the most, etc. gush about them!

oh lordt

reasons i, mitch, love dr. max nero, and think he is so cool and better than every other person in these books, by just a little bit i guess:

1. tailored outfits every day? big respect

2. the fact that he lives in an extremely high-risk business and yet keeps making best friends who keep his secrets for him and decide to help him out all the time! he would be like, an amazing amish person. he’d get everyone to help him raise barns whenever he wanted

3. “three months” “three months?” “since I felt the sun on my skin” <3

4. the fact that he says that line with such contentedness while also forcing several hundred teenagers to live in the sunless underground of a volcano all the time

5. he can and would kill the person he loves most for the greater good (which, notably, other characters are unable to do, including diabolus darkdoom)

6. he never is forced to apologize for hating cypher, and is the pettiest lil bitch about cypher, and cannot hold a conversation with him for more than 30 seconds at a time without losing his cool. what a dumbass

7. my main man who looks people “straight in the eye” all the time. eye contact is his primary superpower

8. he has always believed in raven. and even when she disappoints him, even when she makes the wrong choices, he has never stopped believing in her

9. refuses to speak to his dad for fifteen years over a blueprint and steals priceless art to piss him off

10. “it was the best of times, it was the worst of times...” 

11. goes shopping for otto and wing to make them look like normal people when infiltrating steve jobs’s business hq and acts as though he and otto look as though they could be related

12. “on your return, we will discuss the wisdom of allowing a student to join you on a mission like this”

13. pays people like ms. gonzales and professor pike and the contessa to work for him, who inevitably make his life HARDER because they keep doing nefarious things!!! but he believes in the liberal arts so he keeps giving them leeway to do stuff!!

14. is not afraid of telling the most powerful people on earth that he thinks they’re dumb and he’s firing them all

15. tried to kill a computer with a fire ax

16. has seen diabolus darkdoom’s penis (evidence: book six. “if you were any less of a man, i’d think you were compensating for something.” conclusion: nero does not think it’s anything to sneeze at, and ALSO diabolus likes big toys. is he deficient in some other way if his manhood is good to go? it’s unclear)

17. does not mind that wing would have to kill him if he were xiu mei’s murderer. very reasonable to get vengeance for your mom, y’know? he gets it

18. “i’m almost ashamed to admit it but i’ve wanted to do this since i was five years old”

19. punches stuff when he’s mad, but only when he’s with friends??? why

20. hugs raven after she kills anastasia because while it’s important to her that she kills the person who ruined her life, it would be incomplete without the support and comfort of the person who helped her learn to reclaim her life and live it again

21. keeps threatening to kill people but never does, cuz he’s an ole softie

22. gets nervous when his daughter, who is, btw, the most feared assassin in the world, the definition of “capable of looking after herself,” doesn’t call him before bedtime to check in

23. the kind of guy who will walk through new york’s sewers or sneak into government bases in colorado springs but then will also have tea with the prime minister 

24. does not like tchaikovsky at four in the morning

25. he thinks otto malpense is funny, which is in good taste

26. for all his reputation as a villain, the thing he’s known for is being a headmaster, and despite the fact that everyone thinks it’s corny and a waste of money (or that’s what they say), nero continually proves that through the power of education, teamwork, and a little well-executed kindness, he can do pretty much whatever he wants because, alone, he is nothing, but with his friends at his side, he is UNSTOPPABLE mwahahahahahahaha

27. “it wasn’t you, natalya. it wasn’t you”

Pretty Song verse Drabble: Little Bird, Little Bird

(inspired by something that @hamelin-born mentioned when chatting with me about this AU, hope you enjoy XD. This takes place several weeks after the first drabble btw.)

...

     There was someone out here tonight. Pretty Song could feel it in the way her friends kept pausing and sniffing the air, hear it in their hungry rumbles as the Thirst reared its head whenever she stopped playing her flute. She wondered who was out here, so far away from a Haven. Maybe Nifs. They didn’t seem to be afraid of the night like most humans were —mostly because they didn’t have human soldiers, she didn’t know what the metal men where but human wasn’t it—.

     Without really thinking about it, Pretty Song diverted her path toward where the human must be. Not because she wanted to see the human, but because … well…

     Humans weren’t trustworthy, but she didn’t like seeing them get eaten by her friends.

     She heard an Iron Giant groan angrily not far ahead, heard the shriek of steel against tough hide and carefully raised her flute to her lips. The Thirst faded, the sounds of frantic fighting ceased. She finished her song and wondered if she should go now. She could lead them away usually, so it shouldn’t be that hard. Except… she sniffed the air and hummed unhappily when she smelled blood. The Thirst was always much, much worse when there was blood to smell. She dithered, not sure what to do.

     In the end, kindness won out and she moved closer, humming and singing to keep the daemons calm until she found a large pile of rocks. The smell of blood was stronger here, and Pretty Song was careful as she followed two Goblins up the rock until she could look down into the small lea of shelter it formed. Furious brown eyes glared back, squinting a bit past the blood running down the side of his head. The man was crouched there with sharp knives in his hands, teeth bared more like a cornered wild thing than a human. Behind him, pressed further into the rock and smelling even more strongly of blood, another man blinked up at her dazedly. She didn’t think he was entirely aware of what was going on.

     The angry one swore softly and Pretty Song hunched away. Maybe this wasn’t such a good idea. She didn’t like her friends eating humans, but if this was an angry human that would hurt her, she couldn’t help. It would be too dangerous to help. One of the Ronin drew its sword at her flinch and the two goblins at her side hissed. The man’s eyes widened and his hands tensed on his knives. Then he …

     Lowered them?

     “Hey … you’re that kid Nyx met a few weeks ago, right?” She blinked at him warily, not sure what he was talking about or how to react. The man licked his lips and shot a glare at the nearest daemon, “Don’t suppose you could call off your friends?”

     She still didn’t move. Just hummed softly and patted one of the Goblins’ heads to keep the Thirst down while she tried to think. 

     Tredd was pretty sure he was about to get eaten while a little girl wearing Nyx’s old kingsglaive coat like a cape watched. Assuming that really was a little girl like Nyx insisted and not a new daemon that really enjoyed screwing with people. He squinted past the throbbing in his head and tried to keep his voice gentle and friendly as she stared at him and absently pet one of the Goblins like it was a freaking puppy dog, “Come on, please? I’d owe you one or something.” The kid kept blinking nervously at him, looking more scared of him than of the literal monsters all around. Behind him, Pelna whimpered and Tredd was reminded that he was running out of time to get his comrade to medical help. He knew which way the nearest Hunter outpost was, he’d been dragging Pelna’s half-conscious butt that direction since before sunset after he and Pelna got separated from the other glaives during a retreat. But getting there when there were daemons trying to eat their spleens was an impossible task for just one injured glaive who had to haul a semi-conscious friend around.

     He grit his teeth, don’t yell. Yelling scared the kid off once before. Don’t yell, think of something else. An Arachne tapped closer with a chatter, stilled as the girl hummed like she was some kind of daemon whisperer and Tredd groaned at the idea that came to him, “If the guys ever hear of this,” he muttered, “I am never living it down.”

     He looked up at the girl still watching him warily and cleared his throat as best he could.

“Little bird, little bird fly through my window,”

“Little bird, little bird fly through my window,”

“Little bird, little bird fly through my window,”

“And find molasses candy…”

     Icy blue eyes widened at his singing, then her shoulders slowly relaxed. Her nose crinkled as he repeated the verses and she actually tittered a laugh. Tredd paused and tried not to glare, “Yeah, I know it’s a dumb song and I sound like a dying frog. Wanna show me how its done?”

     She tilted her head at him, wariness still in bony shoulders —she was way too thin, Astrals—, but the borderline terror in her eyes wasn’t there anymore as she tapped her fingers against the rocks a few times in rhythm before singing back the verses he’d just croaked out. She tilted her head the other way, humming the melody and nothing else and Tredd … thought she might be wanting more verses. Tredd glanced nervously at the daemons surrounding them —if this was how he died, singing one of those stupid kid songs Axis’s kids repeated ad nauseam, Tredd was going to come back and haunt Axis’s sorry tail for the rest of his life—, then slowly sheathed one kukri so he could sling Pelna’s arm over his shoulder again as he sang.

“Through my window, my sugar lump,”

“Through my window, my sugar lump,”

“And find molasses candy.”

     The bony girl cautiously clambered down after him, repeating the verses in a much better voice than his —he knew he wasn’t the worst singer, but he was hardly pitch perfect and his head was throbbing so he had good reason to sound worse than usual—. Tredd glanced around as he took a slow step in the direction he needed to go. The daemons just watched. Another step and the girl hummed and the monsters parted way like water.

     Tredd squinted down at her and asked halfheartedly, “You know any birds?”

     She blinked at him from well out of his reach, three Tonberry scampering at her feet like freaking kittens, “Thunderroc, thunderroc?” she singsonged questioningly, which wasn’t the next bird in the verse but who cared.

    “That works.”

“Thunderroc, Thunderroc, fly through my window,”

“Thunderroc, Thunderroc, fly through my window,”

“Thunderroc, Thunderroc, fly through my window,”

“And find molasses candy.”

     And that was how Tredd’s night went. Hauling Pelna’s semi-conscious hide toward a Hunter outpost while cycling through his mental collection of the most annoying of children songs ever because those were the only ones that stuck in his head. All so that a little girl who liked daemons more than people would happily parrot them in a much better voice and keep the daemons calm.

     What was even his life right now.

     She always stayed well out of reach, but as time went on, she stopped flinching when he swore at the latest rock he’d stumbled over in the dark and instead just crinkled her nose and laughed at his bad temper. Good to know his suffering was funny to the daemon child of the night.

     She slowed down as the lights of the outpost came into view and Tredd saw genuine fear creep back onto her face. Tredd stopped to catch his breath and eyed her. She looked like she was thinking of disappearing into the night rather than going into the outpost. Tredd was suddenly angry again, but not at the daemons this time, “Hey,” she glanced nervously at him and he swallowed back the curse that he wanted to say and instead gentled his tone, “It’s okay. I won’t let anything hurt you in there. I’ve fought meaner things than a few sleep deprived Hunters since I was your age.” She didn’t look convinced and Tredd adjusted his grip on Pelna, “You’re helping me, and helping my friend. I owe you one. Nothing is gonna touch you while I’m breathing. Got that?”

     She glanced up at the Ronin she was holding hands with, then over at him.

     Tredd tried not to feel unworthy at the very fragile trust that appeared in her eyes as she slowly resumed walking for the outpost, singing softly the entire way.

     The tipster was more than a little shocked to see two glaives and a tiny kiddo in a ratty glaive coat blow into his diner, but he gave them the medical attention Pelna and Tredd both needed and stayed well away from the girl when Tredd growled at him. Tredd hauled Pelna’s now fully unconscious-but-going-to-survive-the-night tail to a caravan for the night, deciding to forgo getting a hot meal at the diner just this once because the girl looked like she was going to lose her mind surrounded by human buildings and what few Hunters were still awake at this hour and Tredd didn’t want her running off into the wilds again if he could help it.

     He coaxed her into the caravan with food and Astrals she was so small. It was impossible to tell her real age. She could have been anywhere from six to ten, but she was too tiny to know what was age-related shortness and what was from a lack of steady food. Tredd let her have the majority of his rations. He wasn’t hungry and Pelna wasn’t awake to eat anything anyway. She kicked her legs idly as she watched him, never taking her eyes away from either him or the door where more people might enter.

     If Tredd ever found out who made a child more scared of people than the freaking daemon infested wilderness and starvation, he was going to gut them. Slowly. For now he just sat as far away from her as he could and kept his movements slow whenever he had to do anything, all while keeping up a low stream of talking that hurt his throat —first singing dumb songs for hours and now this, he hadn’t made this much noise with his voice in years—. Eventually he realized he had a question.

     “You got a name kid?” A shy look from over the ration she was steadily chewing through, Tredd tapped his chest, “Name, you know, name? Mine’s Tredd, by the way. The idiot I just hauled halfway across the wilds is Pelna.”

     “Pretty Song, my name, Pretty Song,” she sang. Literally sang. He was beginning to wonder if the kid even remembered how to talk normally —don’t think about that, he was angry enough as it was—. Then he had to breathe deep to keep from reacting to the definitely-not-a-person-name. Okay. Okay. So either the kid named herself or someone named a kid like a dog-. Yep, no. Tredd was furious.

     Astrals he needed a drink.

     “Nice to meet you. Thanks for saving my hide out there tonight.” The girl just shrugged and Tredd let the topic go because he had no idea where to take it. He managed to talk her into sleeping on the couch while Tredd shoved Pelna against the wall and squeezed onto the bed, promising himself that he’d call Captain in the morning and figure out what to do with his tagalong then. He drifted off to the soft sound of the girl humming, because that didn’t seem to be something she ever really stopped doing —and if music kept daemons calm, he could guess why—.

     The next morning he woke up to silence and an open window just big enough for a tiny child to slip through.

     The kid was gone.

Teeth: Vampire!Luke // Chapter 5

Author’s Note: this took fucking f o r e v e r to write i’m so sorry. btw, happy new year everyone!!

Summary: Luke knows the rules and his boundaries, he has respected them for centuries. He knows he should stay as far away as possible from every human on his path. But that was before she came along.

Warnings: harassment

masterlist | chapter 4 | chapter 6

Done. That’s what I was. It had been two weeks, two weeks, of insufferable headeaches, hellish and way too vivid nightmares and unreasonable shaking, zoning out, all because of him. I was done having to endure all of this. I didn’t know how or why all of this was happening to me, but even my newfound friends were starting to realise something was off with my behaviour. What bothered me the most was that he walked around seemingly carefree, unbothered and only when our gazes met - which was way more often than I was willing to admit - he put on a sarcastic, knowing smirk. I didn’t even know why I was so frustrated and angry at him, I didn’t even know the guy, but it felt right.

“Do you guys know each other?” asked Ashley, bringing me back to reality. Only then I realised I had been, in fact, caught in the middle of a staring match with Luke - who was sitting on the other side of the cafeteria. I shook my head no as an answer. Michael laughed.

“It looks like you’re either going to rip each other’s throats or, I don’t know, hook up in the genitor’s closet” he stated, taking a bite of his sandwich. I looked at him with wide eyes, choking on my own lunch. “What?!”

The other three smiled, amused. “You should go talk to him” said Calum. “You two look like you have unfinished business” I grew more and more perplexed as something in me told me that my blue-haired friend was right.

“I don’t know what you’re talking about” I stated then, resolute not to leave my table just to go over there and feel like I was about to faint just because he was so close to me.

“For God’d sake, Bea!” sighed loudly Ashley. “Just go! We want to know what’s up with you and big bore Hemmings” she laughed lightly. Don’t call him like that - was the first reaction my brain had. “Come on! You’re always staring at each other and there’s this weird tension even if you avoid each other a lot. Talk to the guy and find out which one of Mike’s two options it is” they all smiled encouragingly, but at this poit it felt like they only wanted something new to talk about. Shaking it off I gave in, giving a death glare to the beaming trio as it watched me take my tray and stand up. “You’ll pay for this” I tried sounding threatening.

“You’ll thank us later!” shouted Michael as I turned my back to them, making a beeline for the lonely table at which he sat alone.

Again he smirked, amused, as I plopped down on the chair in front of him, snorting. “To what do I owe the pleasure of this visit?” he asked then.

“Nosy, insufferable friends” I answered dryly. He laughed, I sighed. Actually being here felt very strange, unlike all the other times when just knowing he was around gave me enormous waves of anxiety, I felt very calm. Still, I didn’t know how to avoid the awkwardness of the silence that was alienating us from the rest of the cafeteria. “I’d never thought you’d come up to me” he said quietly then.

I looked at him confused. “Well, you usually startle me into very short conversations so I thought it’d be only fair if I did the same for once” I smiled.

“You didn’t startle me”

“You kind of look like nothing could ever scare you, so I gave up” I offered as an explanation. He shrugged, admitting the truth of my statement. None of us spoke after that, I started eating my lunch once again as I felt Luke’s gaze on me, following my every action attently. “Your friends really don’t know how to mind their own business, huh?” he asked and looking up at him I noticed his eyes were focused on something behind me. Turning around slightly I caught my three friends hurriedly going back to eating their own lunches and engaging in a very nonexsistent conversation. I laughed lightly as I saw Michael trying to subtly wink at me before letting his eyes wander back to the improvised conversation Calum and Ashley were having.

“What did he wink at you for?” of course he would’ve noticed. Turning back to face him I felt a rush of heat possessing my face - no doubt I was blushing thinking back to my friend’s words. Against my better judgement, as if my filter had been completely removed, I let myself voice my thoughts. “He thinks we’re either going to kill each other or end up hooking up in the genitor’s closet”

Oh, fuck. Fuck, fuck, fuck.

Luke smirked as soon as the words left my mouth and I felt the urge to run out of the cafeteria and go bury myself six feet under. “Is that so?” he asked quirking a brow, the smirk everpresent on his face. He leaned towards me, resting his elbows on the table and his face in his hand. “So what’s it gonna be, the former or the latter?”

As if a wave of bravery had washed over me, I found myself discarding my lunch tray and mirroring his actions. “The former if you dare ask again” and his smirk only widened some more at my words as I struggled to keep my cool, yet somehow managed. “We’ll see about that, sweetheart” he said lowly, swiftly standing up and walking towards the exit. I sat there, frozen. After a few moments I regained the strength to stand up, leaving my luch behind as I had lost appetite, and walked back to my table where I was faced by three pairs of wondering eyes.

“Did he give you a time to meet at the genitor’s closet?” asked Ashley with a teasing smile.

“Sure looks like it” laughed Michael.

“Oh, shut up” I said sitting down, realizing soon after that they were still waiting on an answer. “No, he didn’t!” I exclaimed shoked that they were seriously thinking he had. They all laughed, leaving the topic to rest when they tried interrogating me about what he’d said and saw my expression.

After the last lesson of the day I walked with my friends towards Calum’s car in the school’s parking lot. Chatting for a while longer I informed them of my decision to spend the rest of the afternoon at the public library to do some work, hence declining the blue-haired boy’s offer to drive me home. I waved at them as they all got into his old Toyota, the scene quite funny to me as Ashley and Michael wrestled for the front seat.

As they drove off I started my walk towards the beautiful gothic building, finding it shorter than expected. Deciding upon entering it to find a quiet space away from the study hall, reserved for students to study but used by them to fuck around and be loud, I marched towards the classics section once again. Most of the tables set in some of the wider corridors created by the bookshelves were already occupied, but I luckily found a chair no one was using in a nook and deciding it would have to make do, I sat down.

Two hours and little to no progress on my Maths worksheet later, I decided to give up. This afternoon my attention span was shorter than ever before and a headache was quick to originate after losing my mind on the first excercise out of eight. After packing my belongings I stood up from my spot and walked through the bookshelves on my way to the exit. The sun was about to set and the air was chillier than when I had entered the building. I almost wanted to call my mom and ask if she could pick me up, knowing that by the time I would’ve reached home it would be dark out. However, my phone was dying and I decided against it, thinking saving battery for emergencies would’ve been smarter. Nothing could possibly happen and the walk wasn’t that long after all.

Except it was and I had forgotten the way after just about ten minutes and two wrong turns. I’m an idiot - I thought, groaning in frustration, noticing the sky was already almost dark. Giving up, I decided to give my mom a call but while looking for her contact, hoping my phone wouldn’t give out after using it unsuccesfully for the Maps app, my phone did exactly what I expected. Fucking amazing. I sighed heavily, turning around and making my way back to the library, knowing it was the smartest decision. Someone was bound to be there and willing to lend me their phone for a call.

“Lost your way?” things just keep getting better and better, huh? I just kept walking, fastening my pace to match the quick rythm of my heart. “Hey, I’m talking to you!” the voice kept calling, but I ignored it, not daring looking behind me. Suddenly someone grabbed me from the elbow and spun me around, my heart getting caught in my throat in fear. “I expect an answer to a question, didn’t your parents teach you that?” terror was coursing through my veins, my heart felt like it was going to burst out of my chest. The man was now closer than he needed to be, invading my personal space. I tried shoving my arm out of his grasp but it didn’t work, only making him laugh at my feeble attempt of rebellion. “Let me go” I said, trying not to let the fear get the best of me but my voice sounded weak and fragile to my own ears. The man only laughed harder. “I don’t think I’m gonna”

I tried breaking away from him once again, failing, but at least I managed to stomp on his foot. He let out a huff of frustration, quickly looking up at the sky in what I hoped was at least a bit of pain. Taking advantage of the moment I landed a kick in his groin as hard as I could and it worked as he loosened his grip on my arm just a little. I shoved him again, effectively freeing myself from his grasp and started running as fast as I could in the direction I came from, ignoring his voice screaming at me. With every stride I took I saw a more trafficated street coming into view, my heart feeling the least bit lighter as I approached it. I was still running -panting heavily- right before turning onto the street the library was in, when I collided with something. Or better, someone.

His familiar eyes searched mine as he put his hands on my shoulders to keep me from falling, I tried catching my breath, his hold onto me disappearing once I was stable on my feet. “Is everything okay?” he asked, noticing my state. For a second I tried to think of an answer. Of course I wasn’t in the slightest bit okay and thinking back to what just happened made reality come crashing down on me. I felt my eyes burn with tears as I struggled to breathe. Worry was etched on Luke’s features, I could tell, and my lack of an answer was probably upsetting him even more. “I-I just.. I was trying to go back home b-but, I forgot the way a-and got sort of lost and this m-man..” I couldn’t bring myself to say more as I hid my face behind my shaking hands and cried. I really didn’t want to break down in front of him, but I couldn’t help it. I tried drying my tears after a short while and taking long calming breaths, still I couldn’t manage to calm down. I let my eyes search for Luke’s, which held a look that could kill; he was visibly angry, very much so, and was scanning the little crowd of people coming and going.

“I-I don’t think he’s followed me” I muttered, catching his attention. “I didn’t stop to c-check” He nodded, his stance relaxing just one bit and his eyes softening as he seemed to be taking my appearence in. “I’ll walk you home” he said then. “Where do you live?” I told him the name of the street, before following him in the right direction.

The walk wasn’t too long, as I remembered, and comfortably quiet. I sometimes looked at Luke, taking in his resolute gaze, while trying to come up with excuses for my mom - eventually failing.

As we reached the front porch of my house, he waited for me to go up to the door first. “Thank you for walking me back” I said, hating that my voice still sounded so small. Then he took a step closer to me, giving me a little smile. “If you ever want to walk back home when it’s dark out, please ask me” he said with a kind, soft voice. I was a little taken aback by this side of Luke and his offer, nonetheless thankful for it, and found myself mirroring his little smile. “I will”

Luke waited until her figure disappeared behind the front door, lingering for a bit and listening to her mother’s worried questions. The literal fury that had took over him the second he understood what had happened came back with vengence as he listened to her small voice explain the events. It subsided only when she mentioned his name, but as he made his way back to where they came from and her voice disappeared slowly, the feeling took over once again. And although he had sworn to never do this again, although he knew what he was allowed and what not, he threw all of it along with caution out the window. He couldn’t let this slide, he wouldn’t. Especially when it came to her. It had been less than a century and absolutely nothing had changed - even if he had tried hard to, he realized.

So as he set out for the hunt, he stopped fighting the urge to suppress the memories altogether.

An entirely objective rewiew of episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker

Legend: red is bad (or rather: dumb shit I can't ignore), blue is objective good, black is neutral and orange is random shit I love (aka subjective good).

Okay, the exposition following the title crawl just makes me feel like I've somehow missed a movie, or two. All of this happened in the span of, what? A couple months? A year? We aren't told.

I was going to ask why Kylo Ren was even looking for Palpatine in the first place, but you know what? I don't really care. I won't complain about Ben in this movie.

Palpatine can see the future, right? That's the only way this makes sense. I mean, he's telling Kylo to "kill the girl" (and presumably become Emperor of the Galaxy?) but... why? Later, he'll want Rey to kill him and become Empress, but then he'll just want to kill her, too. Is Palpatine an idiot, or is he just insane?

"She's not who you think she is." Honey, she's not who the screenwriters thought she'd be.

I genuinely love the Finn/Poe/Chewy/Rey dinamic in this movie. They don't feel like friends yet (which they shouldn't), but there's still a camaraderie and genuine caring for one another there. It's great.

"How do we thank you?" - "Win the war."

Rey is a badass, as per usual. Also, I love how Kylo's just fucking with her here. That girl could cut him in half.

"Somehow Palpatine returned." The 'somehow' is a key word there.

Oh, good, Rose is a non-character now.

While I adore the actors' chemistry, Rey doesn't really need this big of a party to come with her. Chewy's the co-pilot, so his presence is justified, then Finn could come as well and use the blasters, Poe too, because him and Finn didn't get enough screentime in the last movie, but the droids? No. Have them stay with Leia. We don't need C-3PO explaining everything to us, thank you very much.

Oh, yeah. That reminds me.

C-3PO.

They're foreshadowing C-3PO and Leia's deaths so hard here.

The mother-daughter dinamic between Leia and Rey is good. That's all.

That mask was left in pieces. Is it even possible to fix at this point?

Oh, cool, the Knights of Ren exist. For about three minutes of screentime.

The humor in this movie works pretty well for me. Hux's assurance that Kylo looks, in fact, great, is gold.

The New Guy.

"Serving another master?" - "No." Um, yeah? Yeah, you are. What is your plan, Kylo Ren? Because, to me, it see that y- Oh, yeah, I've promised to leave him be. Shit.

A simple conversation would have made this movie so much shorter and so, so much better. "Oh, hey, Rey. Where you off to?" - "Yo, Ben. Oh, you know, looking for Palpatine so that I can kill him." - "Oh, cool. That was my plan, too. Wanna come with?" - "Sure." - "He's your grandfather, btw." - "Cool. Wanna rule the Galaxy?" - "Sure.

Rey's over here casually cutting ships into pieces.

Also, I love how people complain that Rey is OP in this scene, while Kylo just strolls away from a burning husk of a ship, unscathed.

"The inscription that was on the dagger is in your memory?" Yeah, that's how computers works, Poe.

Also, I love how no one cares about shat C-3PO thinks/wants. These characters and this script dislike him as much as I do.

The No-Thank-You droid is adorable.

"You were a spice runner?" - "Were you a Stormtrooper?"

Babu Frik. Baby Yoda ain't got nothing on this guy.

Daisy Ridley is sooo so good in this movie.

"Does she do that to us?"

"I pushed you in the desert-" Baby, you struggled in the desert.

The directing of this scene is so good!

"I'm the spy." (I love it 'cause it makes me laugh. Hux is such a petty little shit that he'll join the Resistance just to see Kylo lose. I appreciate that."

Rey being a Palpatine bothers me about as much as the CGI Carrie Fisher, which is to say: a little bit.

"People keep telling me they know me; I'm afraid no-one does" with Kylo Ren's leitmotif playing in the background. *chef's kiss*

That blade is the most plastic-looking thing I've ever seen. (The Wayfinder)

"Babu Frik! He's one of my oldest friends." Alright, 3PO, that was pretty funny.

I have literally nothing to say about the next fifteen minutes, or so. I feel bad for these actors. Daisy Ridley and Adam Driver have gorgeous chemistry, and though they're trying their damndest, you can kind of tell that they're weary of these movies by now.

Two words: Harrison fucking Ford.

This scene.

"I know what I have to do, but I don't know if I have the strength to do it."

Good job, honey. Now you have no weapon for the final battle. Takes after Anakin, this one.

Every ship is a Star Destroyer.

"A Jedi's weapon deserves more respect."

The reverse Kylo Ren leitmotif that's within Rey's theme playing while Rey is wondering why everyone trusts her despite her being a Palpatine is kind of cute.

As I watch the Resistance/First Order battle unfold, I can't help but wonder why they can't just- sign a peace treaty. How long has this war been going on for? Surely, they must've gotten bored of fighting.

Oh, but I do love the design of Palpatine's throne.

"I never wanted you dead. I wanted you here." I feel like you don't really know what you want, sir.

I love how confused Rey looks while Palpatine talks about how much she apparently hates him.

Ben's just been chillin' for the past 20-ish minutes. I like the redeemed theme they've made for him, though.

Why are the Knights of Ren here? They should be loyal to their Master, no? Also, Ben, honey, you have the Force. You've used it in the first movie to stop a blaster shot mid-air. Surely, levitating six people way up in the air, then letting them fall into the chasm below can't be much more difficult.

This battle. Also, I love how the Knights back the fuck up when Rey sends Ben the saber.

And now he wants to be the Emperor. WHAT DO YOU WANT?!

Ow. That's- that's a broken spine right there. Good thing our dude's indestructable.

I realize I'm quoting Sideways here, but seriously, why don't they play the Force Theme when Rey communicates with every Jedi ever?

The final scene between Ben and Rey (minus the kiss - y'all know how I feel about shoehorned romance). It's still so, so beautiful. This scene is more beautiful than this movie - nay, this franchise - deserves.

Oh, is the Stormtrooper lady Lando's daughter? That's... You know what, actually? I don't care.

The ending is so damned strange. She just returned to Jakku, disposes of Leia's and the Skywalker lightsabers (rude!), steals BB-8 and just- nothing.

I do like her new lightsaber, though. It suits her.

Yeah, there's one Skywalker missing next to Luke and Leia. I guess that Rey just didn't give a shit about him, huh? Oh, well.

This movie is odd to me. Many people hate it, some like it, but I'm in this in-betweeny stage. I like it more than The Last Jedi, but only because I don't observe these two movies as agregates, but more as collections of good and bad scenes (since they both feel scrapped together), and thus, RoS just has more elements which I like, though it's objectively the worst movie of this trilogy. Rey is the best she's ever been, Ben Solo is *chef's kiss*, Poe is awesome, Finn is... there (the underdevelopment of this character is still the worst thing they've done), but he does have some good moments, some of the side characters are pretty great (the long helmet lady and Babu Frik come to mind immediately), the music is always a highlight and... yeah.

As for the negatives, Palpatine is right up there. His plan is stupid. That's all I'm gonna say about that. Other than that and the demolition of Rose Tico, everything else are nitpicks for me. This movie could have been great only if they'd scrapped this story entirely and either:

a) made an entirely new movie and utilized some of the original concepts they had, or

b) made at least two new movies with the ideas presented here.

Overall, I've enjoyed this movie. It's one of those movies which I can watch after a long day of studying to relax my brain a bit, one that is supposed to be thought about as much as the scriptwriters have done - which is to say, a bit.

Make you wait part three-J.Hughes

ntdp masterlist

Part one

Part two

A/N: yeah I kinda made this have to have a part four... don’t ask why unedited as well btw!!

Let me know your thoughts if you have any!

Monday rolled around and things didn’t change much, a new girl was present in the classroom and she had just recently moved from Connecticut, she was a lacrosse player committed to play D1, and she got the open seat next to you. She was probably hoping to sit in your seat, which you couldn’t blame her, anyone would want the chance to sit next to Jack Hughes. It wouldn’t surprise you.

“I’m Chloe, do you know where this class is?” She asked pointing to her schedule and you nodded your head, “it’s just down the hall, you take a right into the first mini hall and it’s the first classroom on your right.” You said turning back to the boys, “so where in Connecticut did you live? We’ve got a friend who used to live there.” Trevor said to her and she turned to face you all, “out near the beach, great area to play lax.”

“We get it you’re committed.” Jack mumbled to himself turning his focus to the class discussion about the book you guys were reading and you sighed flipping through the pages feeling Chloe’s eyes on you, you knew that look, the one where they scanned you up and down confused as to how you got into the group considering you were nothing the boys would ever be interested in, you didn’t think this look would happen since everything, but you still carried some weight despite losing a bunch of the summer and continuing to run almost everyday with Alex.

“y/n we are on for Saturday right?” Trevor asked once the discussion was over and you turned to all the boys, “yeah we are.”

“What? They get to make plans with you, but I don’t? I want to hang outside of school with you this isn’t fair!”

“I mean if you want to go to the doctors with me on Saturday with Trevor you can–“

“That’s where you’re going?” Jack and Alex both asked at the same time, a face of disgust and confusion swamped both of them and you laughed shaking your head, “I just wanted to freak you out. No we are going to lunch.”

“It’s funny how you both bought that.” Trevor smiled and jack looked back at him and then at you, “when can I hang out with you?”

“Today is Monday, so never?”

“Man, when I get drafted you’re going to wish you got to hang out with me.”

“Aw you’re going to the military?! Jack, I’m so happy for you!” You joked hearing the bell ring and you collected your things in your bag, “I hate you.”

“I think you love me, but bye bye.” You waved him off and Alex laughed, “you’re coming to the get together Friday?”

“Yeah I am don’t worry I’ll be there.”

—

Friday rolled around quick and now you and your friend were pulling up to Trevor’s house when Alex and jack arrived at the same time, “you’re here?” Jack asked and just as you were going to speak he cut you off, “but not for me?”

“Not for you.” You smiled and when you all walked in everyone seemed to have an eye on you, “y/n!” Trevor shouted seeing you come in, “let the jealousy begin.” Cole joked only to jack knowing his friend had a crush on you and so did almost everyone else in the room.

“I won’t be.” Jack tried to convince Cole, but when he saw you standing next to Alex things were different. He liked you so bad that he just wanted to be Alex, he wanted to have the good funny conversations that you both shared, he wanted that.

“Oh you brought some friends, Jack.” One of the girls came into the kitchen, you had seen her around school before and she always gave you the nasty looks in the parking lot since you got jacks attention now and she was pushed to the side. Last year the two had a thing for each other, but it all fell apart when she gave up on him because he was taking too long with her. Guessing to you she didn’t have the patience.

“Me?” Jack pointed to himself and she smiled standing next to jack leaning up against the kitchen counter, “yeah you.”

“Well y/n isn’t my friend but y/f/n is.” Jack smirked at you and you rolled your eyes thinking like that was some kind of payback because it certainly was not a good one.

“Maybe I don’t want to be your friend.” You smiled jokingly playing with your hair now and he laughed, “that’ll change.”

—

You sat next to Alex on the patio watching the boys play basketball while some of the girls went swimming, your friend went with them she was a lot closer with some of them then you were, they all invited her to go with them swimming but not you.

“You didn’t want to go?” Alex asked and you shrugged, “well I wasn’t asked and I don’t want to go in if I’m not invited.” You sighed, you weren’t comfortable yet to be in a bikini in front of anyone especially them, they were sweet kind girls, but they got judgmental pretty quickly, and you didn’t need a bunch of girls judging you.

“Did you want to go?”

“No.” You replied and now jack came over sitting down with you guys, “you’re not going in the pool?” He asked and you shook your head, they were all now in the hot tub now seeming to have a gossip session looking at someone’s phone.

“Why not?”

“I don’t want to.” You replied getting annoyed now seeing your friend coming over to you all and Alex handed her towel to her, “they are all talking about you I had to leave.”

“I don’t care,” you mumbled running your hands through your hair, these girls were the popular girls. The ones that could get any guy at the snap of their fingers. They’ve never had one bad phase in their lives and were always beautiful. You on the other hand had gone through a lot, you lived in northville for six years until you got to first grade the same girls in that hot tub made fun of you for being overweight, so your parents decided to switch schools and move out to Plymouth where you were welcomed and felt a lot more comfortable.

“I don’t even know why I came.” You sighed and jack frowned looking over at the group of girls and then back at you, he could never understand why girls had to pick on each other for no reason, pretend to like each other like things were okay, but they weren’t. He never understood the logic you girls had.

Jack got up out of his seat going over to the hot tub, “hi, jack, you get bored of her?”

“If you can’t say something nice don’t fucking say it all. If you want to keep getting invited to this shit you better clean up your act or you’re leaving, because she’s staying.”

“What is she your girlfriend?”

“Someday I would hope.”

—

You sat on the floor in front of jack in the living room getting tired from being outside, you both were watching a movie that was playing that some of the boys were watching, but had left to go get a pizza, “I think I did it.”

“Did what?” You asked running your hand over your hair feeling the twists in it looking up at him, “I didn’t know you were braiding my hair?”

“I asked you.” He laughed and you slid back onto the couch next to him, “why won’t you let me hang out with you?” He asked you just scoffed, “no, no come on I want to know.”

“Jack, if I never did what I did over the summer do you honestly think I’d be sitting here on this couch talking with you?” You asked and he knew you were right, Jack was stupid to never look at you and see what he was missing because he was chasing the blonde skinny girls that sat in the hot tub bullying you behind your back.

“That’s why I’m waiting because I really want to know if this is a waste of my time or if this is right. I don’t want it to be one day we hang out and we never talk again.” You replied, he nodded his head in understanding, “can we hang out sometime though? Please? Just us? Nobody else I want to.”

“Hey I don’t mean to interject, but I’m canceling our plans tomorrow he’s yours.” Trevor butted into the conversation pointing at jack and you looked up seeing Trevor smiling and then looked over at jack who had a devilish smile, “I’m picking you up at eight.”
