Jax Snax (v0re)

Pomni is stressed out after the latest adventure, and Jax decides to help calm her down by hiding her in an unconventional way.

Aka, my little headcannon that Pomni will physically shrink if she’s stressed enough, as a way of making herself literally smaller to avoid problems and stay out of the way.

_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_~_

“Why am I the one who has to?” Jax complained to Caine, who had told him to gather everyone for the day’s adventure.

“You’re the one with keys to everyone’s room!” Caine floated over to him, throwing his arms up in a gesture of exaggeration. Jax rolled his eyes and sighed.

“Whatever.” Jax started pulling keys from seemingly nowhere as he walked towards the hallway of rooms. He knocked on everyone’s doors, and unlocked anyone’s who didn’t answer, making sure they were awake. His sarcastic attitude annoying the others as they quickly pushed him out of their rooms, or grumbled and told him they’d be there in a bit. When he got to Pomni’s room, he leaned against the door and knocked.

“Newbie, c’mon. Ain’t got all day.” Jax rolled his eyes when there was no answer after a few minutes. “Pomni, c’mon. It’s been a week already get used to it.” He snapped, annoyed. “Look I don’t want to be waking you either, but you can’t just ignore me.” Jax grabbed the key to her room, unlocking it quickly and opening the door. “Pomni-“ He stopped, not sure what to make of what he was seeing. In front of him was a tiny Pomni, only about half her normal size if even that. “Damn and I thought you were short before.” Jax joked. Pomni looked at the ground nervously, and Jax took a step back as she shrunk another good few feet in front of his eyes. “Well, that’s new.” He stared, not sure what else to say. A small glitch made its way onto Pomni’s hand as she looked up at Jax.

“Hey-“ Pomni quickly hid her glitching hand behind her back. Jax however, wasn’t stupid. He’d seen the glitching hand, and the fact that Pomni had quite literally shrunk in front of his eyes.

“Okay yeah. What’s wrong.” Jax leaned against the doorframe, arms crossed as he stared at Pomni.

“I uh, don’t know what you mean. Besides the obvious, you know, stuck in a literal digital nightmare, heh.” Pomni spoke quickly, refusing to look directly at Jax as she shrank another few inches, wanting to get away from the conversation.

“Anyone ever tell you you’re a bad lier?” Jax tilted his head, his eyes narrowed at Pomni. Pomni let out a nervous laugh, hugging herself and shrinking another few inches. The glitching on her hand became worse as she stressed. Jax raised a nonexistent eyebrow. “Keep that up and you’re gonna disappear.” Even with his sarcastic attitude, a small bit of worry creeped into his tone. “Ya cant go disappearing, newbie, I’ll be the one who’s blamed. I was sent to getcha after all.” Pomni just continued to look at the floor guiltily, refusing to look Jax in the eyes. “Now tell me, what’s got you glitching. Literally.” It didn’t seem like a question, more like Jax demanding answers.

“Just stressed. That’s all. Wouldn’t you be? I mean, weren’t you?” Pomni finally looked up at Jax, who was now much taller than before from her perspective. A small tinge of fear ran through her, as Jax seemed almost like a giant now compared to her current size. “I mean, crazy adventures every day, things literally glitching all around you, never being able to go home, the chance of turning into… whatever that was the first day I got here, a completely new body, it… it’s just so much to deal with.” Pomni became smaller and smaller with each thing she described, the stress physically transforming her. Jax watched as she shrunk, dumbfounded on what to do.

“Look ya gotta stop talking or you’re gonna turn into a spec of dust at this rate.” Jax sighed, bending down. Pomni was small enough to fit in his hand now, and as much as he hated to admit it, he understood her stress. It reminded him of when he first showed up. Jax reached out a hand, setting it on the ground next to Pomni. “You’re going to be expected to show up, but at this rate I think you really will disappear if you’re forced into todays ‘activity’.” Jax looked away from her. “I can help you, if ya want.” There was a sincerity in his voice that Pomni hadn’t heard before.

Pomni looked up at him, cautiously stepping onto his offered hand. Jax carefully lifted her as he stood back up to his full height. “This is going to sound really weird.” Jax began. “But I know a place where I can hide you, where you’d be out of the way of everyone and no one but me would find you.”

“That… doesn’t sound weird at all?” Pomni questioned, looking at Jax with confusion.

“Yeah, that’s the normal part.” Jax rubbed the back of his neck. “The weird part is where the spot actually is.”

Pomni looked at him before sighing in defeat.

“I don’t care. I can’t handle any more of Caine’s $^]]#*%! activities right now or I might literally loose my mind.” Pomni’s hand glitched again and she sighed.

“Alright, but you asked for this, and if anyone asks I’ll have no clue where you are.” Jax shrugged before closing his hand around the tiny Pomni, who let out a small yelp. He slowly lifted her above his head, looking up and opening his mouth. Pomni let out another cry of fear and surprise as she was suddenly dropped, straight into Jax’ awaiting mouth.

“Wait-!” Pomni cried out as Jax closed his mouth, trapping her inside. She crawled over his tongue to the front of his mouth and began banging on his ‘teeth’. “Jax let me out!”

Jax hummed in acknowledgement but did not open his mouth. Instead, he tilted his head back and began to swallow. Pomni was quickly thrown to the back of his mouth, letting out another small yelp as her legs were squished into his throat. A panic overtook her as her hand glitched and she tried to grab into his tongue. The slippery muscle didn’t provide much to grip on as Jax swallowed again, pulling Pomni down up to her waist. Jax swallowed one last time, pulling the last of Pomni’s body into his throat.

Pomni closed her eyes as she began her decent, squirming and trying her best to make Jax spit her up. She could hear his heartbeat as she traveled down, the constant, rhythmic thumping being a surprising comfort. Meanwhile Jax had a hand on his throat, pressing in slightly on Pomni’s form as she traveled downwards. He sighed in relief as he finally felt her plop into his stomach, placing a hand over where he could feel her form.

“You good?” Jax asked, pressing his hand onto his stomach. There was no answer for a moment, until Pomni began to squirm. Jax cringed at the feeling, although something about it was rather enjoyable.

“Jax what the #^$@?!” Pomni yelled, banging a hand against his stomach.

“Calm down, I told ya that I had a place to hide you. You’re out of the way, and only I can find you.” There was a sincerity to Jax’ voice, though his usual slyness was still there. “You’ll be fine. We don’t really need to eat, so there’s no reason to freak out. It’s not like these bodies have stomach acid.” Jax said nonchalantly, as if it were common knowledge.

Pomni stopped squirming, seemingly considering Jax’ words.

“So, I’m completely safe…?” Pomni asked, concern clear in her voice.

“You think I’d do this if you weren’t?” Jax replied sarcastically. “Jeez I might be that guy, but I wouldn’t set out to kill the newbie.” He prodded at his stomach playfully, jostling Pomni.

Pomni let out a sigh of relief, taking a moment to fall backwards and let the walls cradle her. Jax began walking, presumably to whatever ‘activity’ was planned. Jax’ stomach rocked gently around Pomni, his heartbeat and breathing creating a calming and constant rhythm. Pomni, for the first time since they’d gotten to the circus, felt relieved and… secure. There was something about this experience that calmed them, although they would never admit that out loud. Their hand has stopped glitching, the stress seeming to melt away as they relaxed into the walls. Jax would be hearing hell from them when they got out, but for now, they might as well enjoy this break.

Jax sighed, placing a hand over his stomach. He felt Pomni relax, and closed his eyes, smiling. Whatever Caine had planned for today, they would just have to deal with doing without her. For now, Pomni was getting a well needed break. He knew he’d be getting hell from her once she was spit up, and he’d probably never get this chance again, so why can’t both of them enjoy this? Jax pressed in on where he could feel her form, Pomni squirming slightly at the new pressure. Jax smiled wider, and continued walking. This might actually be a good day.

I am one Higuruma fic from falling in love with an imaginary lawyer

[goodomenslvr]

I was talking to a fav teacher of mine and he pointed out that the best doctor was David Tennant, to which I agreed. Then, we went on this entire ride about which acting duo is the best and I said, "Oh, it's David Tennant and Micheal Sheen!". He simply nodded and listed a show they were in together and we kept talking for a few more minutes before he stopped me and said, "Hey, aren't they also in that one show?" and before I could think about how not to give myself away I yelled, "GOOD OMENS??? I LOOOOOVE GOOD OMENS". And now he plans to watch it with his kids and wife and now I'm freaking out because he's like one of those firm and strong christians that will ask you if you've prayed today and now he's gonna hate me 😭😭😭

WIP Wednesday because it's been several millennia since I've actually had any writing to share:

“You’re afraid that you no longer come first,” Frank says. Not a question, nor an accusation. An observation, Eddie knows. But it still stings. It stings because it’s true. Because he hadn’t realised how true it was until it was spelled out to him in so many words. “Yeah,” he says. There’s little use denying it. “Has Buck ever given you a reason to think that?” “No. But it makes sense, right?” Eddie says. Because of course it does. He’s not sure why he expected anything different. There’s always going to parts of their lives that they have to lead separate from one another. “I can’t expect him to keep putting us first, can I?” Frank makes a hmm sound. The one he makes when he’s carefully considering his words. “Buck’s had relationships before.” Eddie frowns. “Yeah.” “So what’s different this time?” Eddie knows the answer. Or he knows, at least, what the obvious answer is. But it isn’t that. It’s—something else. He knows there’s something else, there has to be something else. He has no issue with Buck dating a man. He’s just—not used to sharing him with one, maybe. It’s different. It feels like losing pieces of Buck he didn’t even realise he had.

Will the few followers I have for my first fic be mad at me if I upload another one before I complete the first one?

[b0ne--r0t]

No bcuz I'm 98.8888% sure that I want to get better, but I literally sabotage every chance I get to get better, and when people actually try to help me for once, I push them all away and purposely push myself to get worse and worse and trigger myself constantly in order to fuel my issues.

It's so fucking irritating, because I want to get better, and I don't want to live like this, but some part of me deep down believes that if I get better, my pain and struggles weren't valid and as soon as I'm better, I'll be back to being undeserving of love and shit and I'll be all on my own again.

Like if I'm not sick, then people won't have to care about my wellbeing anymore, and they'll forget about me. And as much as I hate getting help and being worried about, I love it when someone actually cares, yknow?

Idk, I'm probably just being an asshole again.
