I wanted to write a more intense, concept-heavy smut scene but I js tried my best since I'm not familar with smut writing💔💔

Edit: Part 2 is out!!!

Part 3 is out!!!

"Fuck..." Seonghwa groaned, breathing out a puff of wispy smoke. He leaned his head back against the couch as he clocked in the sight of jumbled notes on his mahogany wood coffee table. Orders from customers. Usually, he would've been able to keep up with them, no problem. But there had recently been a huge surge of calls, requesting for the new, trending drug: ARRIBA. And as part of the most reputable dealers in the area, MATZ, he was well-expected to have the best supply. He irritably grinded his teeth together, pre-installed Grillz provided a light, screeching noise.

Taking another drag from his rolled cigarette, his ears perked up at the sound of the door opening. "Hwa, what are you doing?" Seonghwa's business partner, Kim Hongjoong, walked into the shabby makeshift office. Seonghwa didn't reply, merely staring blankly at the ceiling as he absentmindedly played with the blunt in his fingers. Meanwhile, Hongjoong's eyes lingered on the stack of order forms, and he gave a stern look to his tattooed counterpart. "I asked you a question, Park Seonghwa." "What? I'm fucking exhausted from taking calls and names. I've been at it since 11, give me a break." He jerked his head towards a wall clock behind him. A quarter past 3pm.

It had always been this way with the duo. Ever since they started their underground business as barely legal adults, Hongjoong dealt with supplies, and Seonghwa would deal with the customers and their orders. 2 young men in struggling financial situations, who were desperate to make ends meet, starting a drug-dealing business together, it worked out strangely well. This also, despite their constant bickering, formed a strong bond between the two.

Hongjoong rolled his eyes at the response. "Whatever, sure." He tilted his head, eyes settling on the faux fur coat that rested on a chair beside the couch. "Is that new?" "Yeah... I picked it up after getting the payment for that huge order earlier this week." "Ohh, the order for that college frat party?" Seonghwa nodded silently in response, his eyes beginning to glaze over. "Anyways, Yunho says we can expect restock within the next week. ARRIBA's selling out fast, but we can finish these orders right away once the new shipment arrives." Hongjoong rattled off an imaginary list, giving a reassuring pat on the shoulder to his partner. Seonghwa was unresponsive, clearly stressed out from the recent increase in workload, but Hongjoong knew he was listening. Although, that didn't stop him from doing what he was about to do. "You shouldn't keep using this, by the way. It's reaaaally bad for you." With that, he leaned forward and snatched the smoking blunt from his partner's fingers.

Seonghwa hastily whipped his head around, sighing internally at Hongjoong's classic shit-eating grin. He furrowed his eyebrows at the realisation that he had given the man the satisfaction of getting a reaction. "I'm stressed, man. Gotta relax somehow." "I don't think you'll need your weed when your favourite 'regular' is here, though." Hongjoong tilted his head towards the office door, calling out in a singsong voice. "Y/N, you can come in now~"

The mention of your name caused Seonghwa's eyes to immediately light up. He scrambled to snatch the cigarette back from Hongjoong, and quickly crushed it with his heel.

Just a quiet, veterinary student that he had met in a cafe 3 years ago, Seonghwa had adored you from the very beginning. You were the cashier taking his order, nervous on your first day, and fumbling a little with the cash register's buttons. Seonghwa had found your clumsy nature both alluring and endearing, and he had asked you out on a date right away. The two of you had hit it off, and a beautiful relationship bloomed from then on. Even when you found out Seonghwa's line of work, you understood his situation and never judged him for it. It didn't make you love him any less. He would often spoil you with gifts and spend as much time as possible with you. Your college classes and his odd working hours would clash often, but you still found time to drop by his office to visit him. After all, it was quite easy to locate your drug dealer boyfriend. He mostly stayed in his office, only occasionally going out with Hongjoong when they had a large shipment coming in or a customer that wanted to deal in-person. Thus the nickname that Hongjoong gave to you: Seonghwa's Favourite 'Regular'. Despite your support for his business, Seonghwa still hated doing or dealing drugs around you, especially cigarettes. It was part of his line of work, and he was used to it, but he would always quickly put out a blunt or stash away powdery white packets when you visited.

"Seonghwa~ I'm here to visit you! My class today was cancelled, so my afternoon is free," you hummed as you walked into the room in your red checkered pants and (Seonghwa's) oversized hoodie. You offered a smile to Hongjoong, who was already on his way out to give you two some privacy. He winked at Seonghwa just before he walked out the doorway, shutting the door behind him.

Seonghwa's gaze softened as you crashed onto his form on the couch, snuggling into his exposed collarbone. "I missed you..." "I missed you too, sweetheart... you've been so busy with classes lately, I haven't seen you for a full week. Do you even love me anymore?" He sighed dramatically, earning a muffled laugh from you. "My finals are coming up, Hwa. Been rushing my deadlines and finishing up on revision. I gotta do this to earn my veterinary certification, hm?" "Well, anytime you wanna quit your course and live with me 24/7, I'll take care of you. Nothing would make me happier to, actually. MATZ has been doing so well recently." He puffed up his chest. You found it cute whenever he was protective like this. "Okay, Hwa. I'll keep you posted." The two of you settled into comfortable silence.

The quietness and stillness in the air suddenly made him very aware of your movements. He raised his eyebrows when he realised you were being touchier than usual. Your hands were roaming his shoulders, tracing circles over his neck tattoo and gold chains that sat above his unbuttoned collar. The occasional shift of your hips didn't go unnoticed by the tattooed man, either. Seonghwa experimentally slid a veiny hand under your hoodie, blushing when he felt your bare back, marking the absence of a bra strap.

"Sweetheart, are you-"

"Mhm... needy for you, Hwa."

"Oh-- we're in my office now, though, Hongjoong could hear us..."

"Wouldn't you like that?"

Seonghwa's face heated up at the thought of his partner overhearing the two of you. The possibility someone else, especially his best friend/business partner, hearing the two of you fucking in his office turned him on. A lot.

His shy expression quickly changed to a dominant, cockier one. Quickly pinning you onto the couch, he connected his lips to yours in a passionate kiss. He tasted like smoke and the cherry lip gloss you had bought him a month ago, and you loved it. You wrapped your arms around his neck, effectively hoisting yourself up, before pulling away from his lips to kiss and lick at the tattoo scrawled across his neck. Seonghwa groaned at the feeling, his eyes glazing over and landing on his fluffy, new fur coat that was draped on the nearby chair. A devious idea popped into his head.

"Sweetheart, wait... I wanna do something." You stopped sucking at the 'A' on his neck and tilted your head curiously at him. He tugged at the hem of your hoodie, his eye contact with you searching for consent. You let him, of course. You trusted him. He lifted off your hoodie right away, sucking in a breath at the sight of your bare torso. "My pretty girl," he sighed, making you flush a bright red hue. Seonghwa leaned forward to leave a kiss on your breasts and gestured you to take off your pants, before getting off the couch, seemingly to get something. You sat confused, naked except for your dark blue panties, until you saw him grab the fur coat on the chair beside the couch.

The faux fur brushed against your skin as Seonghwa helped you put it on. It was huge, heavy and fluffy, covering everything yet nothing on your bare figure. He stepped back to take you in, a guttural moan leaving his throat at the sight of you naked form practically drowning underneath the fluffy mass of fabric. You, on the other hand, were aching for his touch. A whole week of being apart from your lover, deprived of his love, his intimacy, deprived of him. He noticed your pouty lips and squirming, and chuckled teasingly.

"Can't wait, sweetheart?"

You were about to nod in response, but was cut off when you felt a long finger being pressed against your moist folds. A whiny gasp slipped out of your mouth, and your hands scrambled to find support on Seonghwa's strong forearms. He smiled as he lightly rubbed circles on your clit through the thin fabric of your panties, your whines sounding like music to his chain-adorned ears. "Hwa...hurry, I want your dick in me already," you panted out. Seonghwa scoffed teasingly at your impatient tone. "Patience, sweetheart, I need to prep you first."

His expert fingers tugged aside the fabric covering your pussy, exposing yourself to him fully. Two fingers were pushed into your aching hole, causing you to arch your back at the feeling. Breathless moans filled the room as he curled and thrusted his fingers into you at a torturously slow pace. He knew you were sensitive, and it was driving you crazy how slow he was going.

"H-Hwa..."

"Shhh, I know."

The building knot in your tummy snapped, and you came undone on your lover's long fingers. But just as you began to catch your breath, Seonghwa leaned down to lick up your juices. The cold metal of his grillz shot through your core, drawing out a high-pitched cry from you.

Blinking back tears from the overstimulation, you glanced down at your boyfriend. He was sitting comfortably between your legs, lips and grillz teeth shiny with your arousal, mouth spread in a loving grin as if he didn't just finger-fuck you to an orgasm.

He got up and kissed a tear rolling down your cheek. "I'm sorry, baby, I just had to tease you a little. I'll give you what you want now." Seonghwa picked you up and shifted you to a more comfortable spot on the couch, the heavy coat's fur swishing quietly as he did so. You shivered as the fur brushed against your nipples, perky from being exposed to the surrounding air.

There was a light clunk of a belt buckle, followed by a zipping noise, before Seonghwa finally pressed his pretty cock against your bare stomach, earning a sigh of relief from you. You licked your lips at the sight of his flushed, hard member. "Did you miss me or did you miss my dick?" Seonghwa raised an eyebrow when you stared for a little too long. You whined back, and he sighed in defeat before pressing his cock into your entrance, already wet and lubricated from him fingering you open earlier.

"F-fuck! So warm..." Seonghwa hissed as his cock sank into you. You cried out, reaching out to bury your face into his neck when he started to thrust in and out of you. Sloppy slaps of skin, whiny moans, curses and the occasional swish of faux fur against leather filled the room as Seonghwa fucked you into the couch. The air reeked of hot sex and cigarette smoke, but neither of you minded. He gazed lovingly at you through his lashes, admiring how you looked in his fur coat, with his dick in you. The possessiveness that you two had for each other always made him hard whenever it showed.

He winced when you clenched on him particularly hard. "Oh s-shit- you like my cock? You like your drug dealer boyfriend's cock?" You nodded hastily, drool beginning to form on the side of your lips. Seonghwa smirked, but was barely keeping his composure at the sight of you so cock-drunk. He pulled you in with his free hand for a kiss, heavy metal rings on his fingers squishing your face and making your breath hitch involuntarily. The lingering taste of tobacco on his lips made you moan, eyes glazing over from pleasure as his tongue pushed past your lips to invade your mouth.

It wasn't long before both of you came undone. You sighed breathily as your second orgasm formed a ring of white liquid around Seonghwa's dick, and he quickly pulled out to cum onto your bare stomach. Still panting from his orgasm, he gathered some of his fluids onto his fingers, and stuffed your mouth with them. You hummed appreciatively in response, suckling his fingers clean as he admired your flushed, fucked-out expression.

♡♡♡

"Yah, I was only out for awhile! What did you guys do??" Hongjoong snickered an hour later as he waltzed into the room and over to the couch. He quickly clamped a hand over his mouth when Seonghwa shot a stern look at him, index finger pressed to his lips as if to say "shut the fuck up you big-mouthed minion". His other hand was wrapped around your sleeping figure, still naked but bundled up in his fur coat and shielded from Hongjoong's eyes.

Hongjoong raised his hands, exaggeratingly mouthing a "sorry!" that his best friend scoffed quietly at. Seonghwa rolled his eyes and returned his gaze back to you. His heart warmed at the peaceful look you had in your sleep, but his dick stirred at the sight of you covered by nothing but his oversized fur coat. Needless to say, he was definitely giving you a round 2 once you woke up.

If you've managed to read this far, thank you so much for reading my fanfic! 🙏 I hope you enjoyed it 😭

Word count: 2,849

Pairings: Gator Tillman x Female Reader

A/N: I’ve been stressed out and everything, and I’ve been daydreaming all day of getting my brain shut off by Gator like this. It’s porn without plot, so I hope y’all enjoy? ❤️

You didn’t smile at him, didn’t accept his fruitless jokes or quirky mannerisms. He tried to toss his half of the insults that you both usually hurl at one another, but nothing. It left a bitter bite on his tongue and a sucker punch to his guts. He’s embarrassed he even tried to converse with you. Balancing the local bank bordered pen between his thumb and pointer finger, Gator Tillman taps it against chipped desk wood, blowing a hot breath from between his winter chapped lips.

He can’t take it any longer, especially when you slam your purse down on the counter of your desk cubicle and insult the entirety of the precinct. His desk chair’s springs hinge underneath his weight, and he throws it forward to stride to you on faded snow covered combats. Elongating his leather clad arm, he watches his own thick fingers pinch your shoulder blade to get your attention and direct you towards him. He’s normally not this public with his reactions in regards to you, but you're under his skin, you’re inside of him more than he finds himself buried deep within you. It’s a given this was bound to break his reverie.

Your brows nearly meet in anger, creating a crease he fights to kiss off. He’s pissed, he has to let that lead right now. He can see your heavy breaths beneath the crinkle in your overcoat, your heaving breasts covered by a satin, blood red blouse that you’re wearing today. You don’t dare move, but wait. He likes this.

Your nostrils are brimmed with the hot cinnamon spice of the aftershave that’s wrapped around his neck, licking his jawline. You follow those freckles that wind around his jugular, single out those moles, all the way to his pretty pink mouth as it separates and begins to command you in a voice so deep it rattles your ribcage from a startled heartbeat. Pulsing, thumping, pounding, leaving muscles sore and aching.

“Get your ass out to my squad car! I need to have a talk with you.”

“No.” You spit, looking up at him, watching his adam’s apple bob from a jagged swallow. Did he expect that? He knows your mouth has a doctorate in back talking.

Your energy, your stress, it all piles into combat mode and it pushes against you, leaving you whimpering to its orders. You let it guide you, piss you off.

“You like havin’ a job to pay your rent?” It’s condescending, knowing what it can do, his tone is ever so present. Abusing his power just the way that you fuckin’ like it.

Here we go, the give and take that’s finally broken all boundaries, publicized whatever your relationship with Roy Tillman’s son is.

Your jaw clicks and you lick the roof of your mouth. “M’ pretty sure I can find another place to lay down my head at night, Sheriff.”

He can barely stand how the anger burns from his toes and electrifies his neck’s nape. He can’t see through its aftershocks, rolling forward and landing back on heavily booted heels. He fully clasps your shoulder now, leaving no room for another choice. You’re out the door first, the faux fur on your snowshoes dusted in the white powder, sludge scrambled beneath your heavy footfalls, Gator’s right behind yours. The cruiser is off to the side of the building today, shimmering beneath the wintery condensation, scoped out by the buttery glow of a Midwestern, countryside sun.

You hear the automatic lock release, and resist the urge to call him a good little boy. You’d chastised him for leaving a police vehicle, something that a Tillman drives — unlocked. He listened. You peel open the passenger door, a bit tough due to freezing conditions. Ice chips shred themselves and shake loose of the door, melting as they pelt your boots. Gator has a white knuckled grip on the driver’s door, standing opposite, a cold smoke cloud trickling off his mouth, his mossy eyes having evaporated into a midnight black.

You climb into the cold expanse of the car and slam your door with purpose, sealing your paced fate. You don’t turn as he leans down to look into the car, or even as he joins you and cranks the engine for some heat. His benefit beyond your own. There’s a few wrappers, however, that you do notice when you glance across the dashboard.

This is the thoughtful pause where your tongue feels heavy, legs a deadweight, yet lighter than a feather. Your body reacting to Gator while your mind becomes caged to his capture, and he’s the only one with the key. He’s the first one to react today, again. The sound is one you’ll never tire of hearing, saliva pooling on your tongue as he peels back the leather from his belt buckle and it clatters apart, giving him room to undo his jeans entirely. He gives halt to his actions and snaps his fingers in your direction.

“Look at me.”

Your knees knock together and it causes a smirk to tug on the corner of his beautiful mouth. He’s got one hand, a watch wrapped wrist - deep into his underwear, sliding his hand back and forth, squeezing, preparing, and levels you to the seat with that gaze that reaches, that cradles beneath his eyebrows, bringing them into focus. When he’s got you tangled into his trap, he grits his teeth as he struggles to free himself, his fingertips only grazing around the beautiful girth you’re once again gifted privy to personal indulgence with.

Cocky. He’s fed and greedy. “Oh yeah, you want this, huh? You can be the biggest bitch in Stark County and I’ve still got somethin’ you want, that no one else can ever give you. Ain’t that right, baby?”

You don’t verbalize, it’s pointless. Tears blurring your vision, burning into the ducts. You need him, you always do. He fixes you, even when he breaks you, puts you back together when he’s the one who's pulling everything apart.

“Get over here, quick, pretty baby.” A compliment and it has you crawling across the console and right into his lap, his cock jumping, smacking against that plain black t-shirt he’s wearing beneath his jacket, when your warmth is above him.

He doesn’t touch you yet, his spare hand tight on his holster and the other on his cock. You can feel its thickness scraping against you, and he grins, tapping the weapon. “Not like you’ve cared before when I wear this when I’m inside. Think that you like wonderin’ if I was smart enough to remember the safety, don’t ya?”

You start to say something, and he removes the gun and places it where you were sitting moments ago. No more crackling plays. He’s ready. That massive palm drifts in between your legs and wiggles around to find the hem of your work skirt, bringing it up and ordering you to hold onto it. The moment that you do, it’s an audible growl that festers from his throat, birthed in his diaphragm. He’s seen your situation through the sheer tights that you’re wearing, in addition to the massive wet patch that’s stained the seam.

“Where’s your fuckin’ panties?”

“Forgot to do the laundry. Sue me.” And he would on the spot, give you a sentence, a ticket, something. The way he’s looking at you when you permit your eyes to meet. That amber ring is completely engulfed in the vast expanse of his orbs.

“You’ve just been walkin’ around like this?”

“Looks like.” You sass, hands trembling to hold up your skirt, especially when he lets go of his cock and uses both hands to demolish the crotch of your stockings, fabric ripping down to your inner thighs, leaving you swollen and bare for him.

Vulnerable. Ready to have your worries shut off and be put aside. He leans up and you meet, his nose mashing into yours, lips shaping over your own, caressing, yet not meeting.

“Sit down.” He commands, and spits a clean line of saliva into his own palm, tucking it between your legs and rubbing.

You disobey instruction and sway forward, knuckle bones cracking as you fist your grip into the shoulders of his leather jacket, its echoing crinkle roaring in your ears with the static blood rush. Your lips part and it’s a trembling whine that escapes. Gator is elated, using his calloused digits to separate you messily, slapping once, twice. You jump, back smashing into his steering wheel and laying on the horn. He chuckles, uncaring now. It’s feeding season and he’s here to claim.

“Goddamned pathetic mess, aren’t you? Like a lost doe waiting on her buck to take the lead. You just needed me to fix everything you’ve been goin’ through, right?”

He craves to be your antidote, the only prayer you pray, even when you’re not on your knees for him, but at your bedside, and your sole place of worship. He knows that his home lies inside of you — warm and safe, all abandoned and found. He’s gripping his cock to hold for you, waiting, letting his sopping wet fingers leave a webbed string from your cunt to the digits, to which he takes greedily into his mouth and sucks. You’re on him completely within a flash, that fat head putting a welcomed pressure on the damp ring of muscle that beckons him a little deeper, gets off on the pain his size is about to bring. You tighten your grip on his jacket, rolling it back off his shoulders to slide your hands beneath and grip the fabric of his t-shirt.

His toes curl in his boots and he shifts, letting his heels roll back to assist him in a raise of his muscular legs as he pushes hard and fast, his wrapped hand meeting your folds in a sticky press. He lets go to grasp at your waist, keeping you steady and still. You fall into his neck, thighs shaking so hard that it causes him to practically vibrate, choking on the quaking. It’s a few moments that he gives you before he’s fetching you by the back of the neck and dragging you from the dotted crevice where you’d begun your quest to kiss those freckles and moles painted into his skin. This is how he holds you, irises matching to meet, your hips rolling to a rhythm that this amount of limited space can barely accommodate, with his fingers squeezing your neck, keeping it propped, adjusting your head when it lolls back.

He grows impatient within the next few movements, gritting his milky whites, pawing at your heavy coat, moving it to get to your clothing beneath to rip your blouse, buttons pinging all over, bouncing from the crystal windshield and onto the dash. Hell, you were sure one made it past the cage divider and into the backseat. Your bra cups are pushed beneath your tits and exposing your nipples to the change in temperature, which Gator immediately takes advantage of. Slapping each swell before taking a nipple between his lips and flicking his tongue to overstimulate you, getting you to move yourself a little faster over him, drawing his heavy balls just a little tighter. And then he’s letting himself steer it in reverse to watch you take what he’s giving.

He knows it hurts, a boastful pride that’s also made him bashful at times, surprisingly. But you’re taking him, riding him, holding onto his shoulders as your perfect tits bounce with every movement. There’s not enough room in here, it’s cramped, smelling of sex and faded fast food wrappers, but Gator doesn’t give two flying fucks. Your clit drags across that patch of hair at his base, smearing your thick cream down his shaft when he pulls out to push back in, and it has you begging him to hurt you some more.

His spare hand goes for the plush of your waist, and he gives a vice pressure, his boots leaving the floor as he gives you all he’s got, his cock colliding with that diabolically delicious spot inside. “How about that?” He’s panting.

You tighten around him, flooding him, jaw becoming unhinged to let your tongue roll out, licking your lips, your eyes glazed over. You reach for his hold on your neck, holding onto his wrist. And your other hand ventures into purchase, your body pressing forward, flipping his shirt up enough to press your breasts into those tufts of chest hair, your mouth finding his neck and you lick away that aftershave soaked perspiration, all the way from his gulping jugular, tasting his overworked breaths, to going across his jawline, and you nose your way into the overpowering smell of his hair product, your hand bypassing his chest and sliding between his slicked back locks, shaking them into a disarray, yanking so hard that he hisses, “You fuckin’ bitch. You know how much I hate that.”

But he doesn’t. He can fix his hair. And his pathetic cock pulses inside of you, letting you know that he’s close, so fucking close that his goddamned throat is on fire with it. You’re too brainless to make a sassing remark, that tightening in your belly beginning to take hold. Gator steps in to save, witty on encouragement.

“Soaking my fuckin’ dick. Think you’re about to cum for me, baby. Should I let you ride it out? You gonna talk back to me when we’re out of this car in a few minutes?” He cuts himself off, gasping into the kiss you steal.

You’re nodding, unsure of what you’re answering. You just know that if you don’t have your release that you’re going to tip off the precipice and shatter. Gator takes your warning, closes his palm over the back of your neck, and begins to piston his hips until the car starts to rock and you’re both unsure who’s making what noise. Your eyes roll back and he jerks you forward, keeping your beautiful chest-full against him, high on the stimulation. His nose is shoved in your cheekbone and he’s kissing you messily, your slick noisy and loud, embarrassing and overwhelming.

Gator bites down so hard on your bottom lip that you taste copper. He automatically licks it up. He fuckin’ loves it when he can make you bleed and tend to it. You’re crying, holding onto his hand around your neck, hand falling from his hair and onto his naked waist. All you get out is one word. “Please.”

“Fuck yeah, baby. You wanna cum all over my cock? Gonna let me fill up your worthless little cunt?”

That dam breaks and cracks at your foundation, flood gates exploding, Gator’s thrusts sounding wetter and messier. You know it’s happening before he does, uncaring how messy it is when it spurts from where you’re joined, drenching that connected trail of hair around his navel, matting back his bush with a translucent shine. His head thumps back against the seat and he swallows, crying out, “Oh, fuck. Good girl, fuckin’ mess me up.” He’s stroking, fondling your neck.

And then you’re taking the finality of his uncoordinated movements, his eyes connecting with yours once more, grip tighter on your neck, fingers laced with yours, other hand reaching for a breast, letting his fingertips tap down your sternum and press you apart to see himself engulfed in your cunt. He’s lifting his calloused thumb against your clit, blood smeared mouth kissing around the corners of your own. “Want you to do it again. Spill all over my lap and I’ll fill you so full that this town won’t have to wonder who put a baby in your belly. They’ll fuckin’ know.”

He’s got you so full on the next push that you lose your breath and give him what he wanted faster than you could’ve anticipated, the surprise of his words coursing through your every connected vein. Your body belongs to him, obeys, another layer dousing him. And he makes good on his promise, seconds later, whimpering, all the tendons in his throat tightening, his pupils expanding, and he’s brimming your insides with warmth, hips stuttering, movement fizzling out, holding against you as his orgasm completely drains him. You encourage him, you thank him, words jumbled. He’s seeking you out, forever needing solace and approval after it’s this intense (and it usually is).

He kisses your mouth, wettened, flat presses, his tongue licking inside as his hands move to hold onto the fat of your breasts. On the break away, he’s nosing you, an act of reserved affection. It’s all better now.

After you’d ran some gas out and redressed in a comfortable silence, wiping yourselves down with the console napkins Gator keeps — he’d voiced his opinions from earlier, trying to mask the concern but failing miserably.

“Everything is okay though, right? Nothin’ we can’t handle?”

We.

You smile at him, adjusting your skirt over the ruins of your tights, both of you aware that you’ll be completely bare for the rest of your shift.

“Turns out that all I needed to do to feel a little better, was to ‘sit down’.”

Pairing: Bradley Bradshaw x Reader (no use of y/n)

Warnings: second chance romance, language, allusions of smut and potential full smut, stalking, breaking and entering, unhealthy obsessions, delusions of feelings, unwanted attention.

Bradley told you to pack enough for the week. After dropping off all the appropriate forms at the courthouse on Monday morning, the two of you headed off. The further you got from San Diego, the more relaxed you seemed to become. He had managed to find a cabin a few hours away up in San Bernardino. It was secluded, tucked away in the mountains and amongst the trees, but it’s picturesque, quiet, something he knew you would love. He paid more than a little extra to have it ready at such short notice, but it was worth it ten times over to see the smile on your face when you climbed out of the Bronco and breathed in the crisp and invigorating mountain area. He couldn’t help but just to watch you for a minute, your head tilted back and your eyes closed. 

There was still a heaviness around you that he knew wouldn’t go right away. But for the first time in days, you looked something close to at peace. 

The inside of the cabin was just as impressive as the outside. It had a large open concept space that contained the living room and the kitchen, and it was all wood tones and dark, oversized furniture. Faux fur rugs decorated the hardwood floors, and the windows were tall and wide, letting in whatever natural light peaked in through the trees facing that side of the house. You spun in a slow circle, looking up at the high tilted ceilings with the exposed beams. 

“Wow,” you breathed. It was all you needed to say for Bradley to know he had made the right call in bringing you here. 

You left him to take your bags to the bedroom as he put away the groceries you had stopped for on the way. You hadn’t come back by the time he was done so he set off to find you, going down the short hallway to the only other room in the cabin. He couldn’t help but whistle in appreciation as he looked around the space. The king size bed that looked like the most comfortable thing he had ever seen sat in the middle of the room. There was a rocking chair tucked into the corner, and the dresser looked like it was made of the same type of sturdy wood as the bedframe. There was an en suite bathroom that he was sure was just as beautiful, but the real draw of this room, perhaps this place in general, was the view he was currently looking at. 

He hadn’t spent too much time looking at the pictures on the rental website, but he suddenly understood the price tag on it. 

There was a large deck off of the bedroom, and through the open french doors, he could see nothing but the mountain landscape. Rugged peaks and luscious trees of greens and browns and oranges; nature in its purest form. It was only early afternoon and the open blue sky was breathtaking; he couldn’t imagine what it would look like at sunset. More than that though, was the view he had brought with him. You were leaning against the railing, taking in the stunning panorama that the deck overlooked. He joined you outside, careful to make his presence known so that when he wrapped his arms around you from behind, you didn’t jump. 

“Beautiful, isn’t it?” 

You spoke quietly as you leant back against him, almost like you were afraid to disrupt the calmness surrounding you from all sides. 

“It is,” he agreed. And he was looking at the view, yes, but he was mostly looking at you. 

You turned to face him, winding your arms around his neck. “Thank you,” you said, “for bringing me here. I think-I think I-” you closed your eyes and shook your head, and the deep breath you took came out a little shaky. Bradley waited for you as you collected your thoughts, his thumbs rubbing circles into the small of your back. “I think I needed this,” you finally settled on. He knew there was so much more behind your words. 

Bradley considered his response carefully. He knew what he wanted to say. But he knew it wasn’t the time yet. 

“I’d do anything for you,” he said instead. He pulled you a little bit closer. He didn’t want you to thank him for bringing you here, because taking care of you wasn’t something he ever wanted to be thanked for like it was a chore. Your eyes brightened just a bit at his words and you raised on your toes to kiss him. 

You passed the next few hours doing not much of anything, and Bradley thought it was exactly what the both of you needed. He could tell that you were still exhausted after the weekend, and if he was being honest, he was too. It was nearing 5pm and he was about to ask you what you wanted to make for dinner when your phone rang. You looked up from the book you were reading to where your phone was sitting on the coffee table. Seeing the hesitation in your eyes, Bradley cleared his throat of his own anxiety and leant forward to pick it up. When he saw that the suggested name for the number was the San Diego Courthouse, he handed it to you with what he hoped was an encouraging smile. 

“It’ll be okay,” he whispered, squeezing your ankle from where your feet were resting in his lap. You nodded and answered the phone with a deep breath. 

“Hello?” 

Bradley kept his eyes trained on you and it wasn’t long into the call that your eyes squeezed shut and you bit down on your lip so hard he worried about drawing blood. That same defeated look that had been on your face the last few days reappeared. 

He knew, without you even needing to say anything, that you hadn’t been granted the emergency temporary restraining order. 

His heart fell and he reached out and grasped your free hand in his. He could feel the bandages still covering your palm against his skin and your nails dug into his hand as you squeezed. A tear slid down your cheek and he brought your hand up to press a kiss onto your fingers. He scooted closer on the couch, drawing you into his chest. You tucked your face into his neck and he listened as you asked about a court date and thanked them for calling before letting the phone fall to the couch. Immediately, both of your arms were wrapped around his neck, and he was pulling you fully into his lap. 

“What did they say?” he asked gently into your hair. He felt you take a shuddering breath. 

“Not enough concrete evidence as of right now,” you told him. “I’ll get a phone call about a court date. God, this is such bullshit.” 

Bradley let out a long sigh, pressing a kiss to your head as he held you close. He couldn’t say part of him didn’t see this coming after the conversation he’d had with Sadie, even if he had hoped with everything in him it would go the other way. 

He pulled back, cupping your face in his hands and making you look at him. He wiped away the wetness on your cheek with his thumb. “We can call Sadie later. Figure something out. Okay?” 

You nodded, but he could tell you were beating yourself up, and that all the worst scenarios were running through your head again. “What can I do?” he asked, feeling somewhat desperate. He’d do anything for you, just like he said. 

It took you a moment to respond, playing with a button on his open flannel shirt. “I think I just want you to hold me right now,” you answered back quietly. 

He wondered if you had any idea he’d do that forever if you let him, no matter the circumstances. 

——

When Bradley blinked awake the next morning, you weren’t beside him. He felt a flare of panic for a brief moment at the cold sheets, his sleep-fogged brain having a hard time coming out of the nightmares he had had, but then he heard the soft hum of music and movement coming from the main area of the cabin. He let his face fall back into the pillow and took a deep breath as his heart rate slowed. 

He laid there for a moment just listening before dragging himself out of bed, popping into the bathroom quickly before heading out of the bedroom. 

He found you quickly enough, his suspicions confirmed that you were in the kitchen. A smile tugged at his lips as he watched you pop back and forth between the stove and the fridge, wearing his shirt from the day before and a pair of fuzzy socks on your feet. A smudge of what looked like pancake batter was on your cheek, and there were specks of flour in the messy bun on top of your head. You smiled brightly when you caught sight of him standing there. 

“Morning, sleepyhead.” 

He couldn’t help but feel a bit of surprise at your tone. You sounded at ease and energetic, which was the complete opposite of how you had fallen asleep last night. He responded back with his own greeting as he walked over to you. You were manning pancakes, just like he had thought, and bacon sizzled on the other burner. He wrapped his arms around you from behind, pressing his lips to your cheek. He could taste a hint of vanilla from the batter he kissed off. 

“How long have you been awake?” he wondered, voice still thick and rough with sleep. You leaned back into his chest as you flipped a pancake. He noted that it was a little after 9:00 from the clock on the microwave, and was surprised he himself had slept so long. 

“A few hours,” you shrugged, and you turned the temperature down on the bacon before turning in his arms to kiss him properly. 

He raised an eyebrow in question when you pulled away. “A few hours?” 

“Yeah,” you told him, and you took a deep breath before offering him another, softer smile. “I emailed my resume to that contact that Anna gave me, about a potential job. And then I put in a few more applications. And then I emailed Sadie all that she had asked about, and my landlord about not renewing my lease. And then I realized the time, so I thought I’d make us breakfast.” 

“Wow,” he murmured, “productive morning, huh?” 

You shrugged, glancing down almost shyly before meeting his eyes again. “You went through a lot of trouble getting us this place for the week. And you…you’ve gone through a lot of trouble for me.” 

“Bug, I-” 

“No, let me finish,” you told him, putting your finger against his lips to stop him from speaking. “I really appreciate it, Bradley. I appreciate you. And I want to be here, be present with you. Everything else can wait until we get back to San Diego. It’s certainly not going away anytime soon. But for this week…I want to just be. Here. With you. Happy. Because that’s what you make me. And I think we both deserve the time away, no matter what got us here. Right?”  

His heart beat a little faster in his chest as you spoke, and he felt something that he thought was pride bubble up in him. You said the words almost reverently, like you craved nothing more. Bradley could see it in your eyes how desperately you meant it.

“Okay,” he murmured, nodding his agreement. He pressed a kiss to your nose, delighting in the way you giggled in response. “So, what are we doing first?”

“Breakfast,” you told him with a grin, “And then we can figure it out from there.” 

He squeezed your hips with a nod. “That sounds perfect.” 

After an unhurried breakfast, you ended up spending the day hiking on some of the trails down the mountainside. He knew how much you loved being outside and that the last few months, between how busy you were and how uneasy you felt, you hadn’t really had the opportunity. So he didn’t hesitate to indulge you as you kept a leisurely pace, simply enjoying being outdoors and taking in all of the scenery that Mother Nature offered you. You packed a small lunch of sandwiches and fruit that you took with you, eating together amongst the grass and rocks.

The sun was setting by the time you got back to the cabin, sweaty with sore muscles but both of you smiling. You were still giggling at the story he was telling you about a prank Payback had played on Nat last week - and the payback she had gotten in return - when you walked through the door and toed your shoes off. 

Bradley pulled you to him with a gentle hand on your hip, leaning down to place a kiss on your lips as your laughter died down. 

“Why don’t you go shower, and I can start on dinner?” he suggested. 

“I can cook tonight,” you insisted, but he shook his head. 

“I got it.”

“B…”

He silenced your protest with another soft kiss, squeezing your hip over your spandex leggings. “Shower,” he whispered against your lips. He pressed his own to your nose and forehead before winking and stepping back. He watched you walk back to the bedroom, pausing when you got to the doorway. You looked back at him over your shoulder, your bottom lip drawn between your teeth. You looked like you were contemplating something, and Bradley clocked the flash of heat that pops up in your eyes. His heart beat a little faster in his chest. You looked like you were contemplating saying something, but after a moment, you gave him a quick smile before disappearing into the room. 

He let out a long huff of air and ran a hand through his hair. 

He hadn’t even thought about touching you since Saturday morning before you had left for brunch. It was only Tuesday night now, but it felt like so much time had passed since he took you in the bed of that goddamn house of yours. You had both been upset the last few days, and he’d never dream of using those emotions to his advantage. He knew today had been better, but you hadn’t invited him in the shower with you - he’d wait until you told him you were ready. 

But damn if the happiness you were exuding today and the look you just gave him didn’t make resisting difficult.

He kept things simple, and an easy meal was done by the time you were finished. Your hair was piled in a wet knot on top of your head and you wore one of his oversized sweatshirts that was so long on you, he could barely see the hem of the athletic shorts you had on, too. Still, when you walked back into the main area of the cabin, his breath caught. He stared at you for a moment, and when you furrowed an eyebrow, softly asking him what was wrong, he cleared his throat and shook his head. 

“Nothing,” he said, and then held out one of the bowls of pasta in his hand. The two of you sat at the small kitchen table as you ate your dinner. He was happy to see that your appetite seemed to have come back after not eating much of anything the last three days. You did the dishes together when you were done, your side flush with his as he washed and you dried. He excused himself after that to go take his own shower, and he didn’t miss the way you bit your lip again as the same look crossed your eyes. But you gave him another one of those gentle smiles when he caught your eye, turning away before he could say anything. 

He made it a quick one, in and out in enough time to scrub off and run some of your shampoo and conditioner through his hair. He was worried spending anymore time in there with his thoughts would be cause for something significantly colder in temperature. 

A buzzing drew his attention as he was toweling off. His brows furrowed together and he was quick to slip his black briefs on and step back into the bedroom. Your phone was on top of the dresser, vibrating against the wood. It stopped before he could reach it, only to start again in short, quick bursts that indicated you were getting multiple texts in a row.

He picked it up with the intention of taking it to you, but then he caught a look at the screen. His blood ran cold in his veins and his muscles locked up. 

Underneath the notifications of the missed calls, you had a slew of messages, all from an unsaved number.  

Unknown: You haven’t been at work in two days. Are you okay?

Unknown: I miss seeing you 

Unknown: Why won’t you answer the phone? 

Unknown: I still have your necklace. Don’t you want it back? 

Unknown: I can’t see where you are anymore. Why did you do that? I need to check on you. 

They continued to come in, each one more concerning and unhinged than the one before. 

He could feel the corners of your phone case pressing into his palms from how hard he was gripping the device, as well as the heat that crept up his neck in anger. It was obvious who was sending these messages. Paul must have gone out of his way to get another phone number, and Bradley's not sure why he was surprised by this. He was foolish to not have thought of it before. 

You may have blocked his number, but that doesn’t mean your number was blocked from his. 

God damnit. 

The phone rang again, the same unknown number flashing on the screen. Every single fiber of Bradley’s being wanted to answer it and demand that he leave you the fuck alone and get everything that he had kept in off of his chest. His finger hovered over the answer button as he intended to do just that. 

But the cops you had spoken with as well as Sadie had said that neither of you should engage with him, and that it would turn in his favor if you did. He knew that it would only make things worse for you. So he fought himself and let it ring. He was nearly trembling by the time it stopped, and he watched as more texts came through. Red tinted his vision at the last one. 

Unknown: He took you from me. You should have told him that you were already mine.  

Bradley nearly broke the screen with how hard he pressed on it as he went in and blocked the number. He was set on deleting everything, but paused before he did. He glanced up at the open bedroom door. He could hear the TV playing softly, some sitcom you liked to rewatch over and over again. You had made the conscious decision this morning that you weren’t going to worry or think about Paul this week. You had laughed and smiled and seemed truly relaxed and happy all day.  He didn’t want to ruin that. 

But he wondered if this could help you in the long run, and be some sort of evidence of just how unhinged this guy was when it came to you.

Making a split second decision, he took screenshots of all your missed calls and texts and sent them to himself before deleting them from your phone and turning it off.

You didn’t need to know right now. He could shoulder this for you until it was necessary.  

He sunk down onto the edge of the bed, putting his face in his hands and trying to take deep breaths. He knew he needed to calm down before he went back out to you. He was so angry his hands were shaking, but after a few minutes, that rage transformed into something sadder. 

He couldn’t understand why this was happening to you. You, who was inherently good. You worked so hard and were kind to everyone you met, even when they didn’t deserve it. And this asshole had taken advantage of and construed that kindness into something that it wasn’t and tried to manipulate you into thinking you were at fault. 

That last text played in his mind again, and for the first time, he wondered if his presence in your life was what made all of this what it was. Paul had been following you for months, yes. But as far as you both knew, he hadn’t escalated to what he had until that night in the bar when Bradley had announced himself as your boyfriend. 

It left a terrible feeling in his stomach and a bad taste in his mouth. 

He took one more deep breath and stood from the bed, slipping on a pair of sweatpants and a tshirt. You were curled up on the couch under a thick maroon afghan that had been draped over the back and you smiled at him when he came into view, sipping on a mug of what he assumed was tea based on the string hanging out of it. 

“Hi there,” you murmured. 

He leaned over the couch to press a kiss to your waiting lips. “Hey.” 

“How was your shower?” you asked. 

“Good. I don’t smell like dirt and sweat anymore,” he joked, and he felt himself calm down further when you laughed, just like he had hoped you would. A playful look came over your face and you set your drink down, crooking a finger for him to come closer. You kissed him again when he did. 

“I’ll be the judge of that. Come sit with me. We can watch a movie.” 

You shifted so he could settle onto the couch behind you, your back against his chest as you laid between his legs. He wrapped his arms around you and you pulled the blanket over the two of you as you grabbed the remote again to flip to a different streaming service on the tv above the fireplace. You scrolled through the extensive movie collection, and Bradley thought about what things would look like if he had declined your request for help that night and didn’t kiss you, if you never would have reconnected. Would they have gone so far? Or would things be the same, only you would be dealing with them on your own? 

But he was selfish enough where he couldn’t handle the thought of losing you again, either. He had to believe you were safer with him there, because he could protect you. He wasn’t going anywhere - he couldn’t. 

He loved you way too much to let you go.  At this point, you controlled and owned nearly every part of him, and he didn’t think you even knew it. He wanted to tell you.

“What do you want to watch?” you asked. 

Bradley cleared his throat that was suddenly thick with emotion. He pressed a kiss to the side of your head, nuzzling his face into your neck and breathing in the sweet smell of your hair. 

“Whatever you want,” he rasped out, tightening his grip on you. You hummed in pleasure as you snuggled back into him. “You’re in control here, Bug.”

Werewolf HRT: Prologue : The Clinic

I’m running through the woods, with the wind whipping through my fur. The rhythmic thump of my paws on the earth matches my frenetic heartbeat, as I lope past the trees on all fours. The scents of dirt, of foliage, and cool night air fills my nose. I stop and savour the breeze, eyes closed in bliss. Then I tilt my muzzle up to the sky, gaze into the full shining moon, and ululate a mournful howl…

I shake off the daydreams as the bus screeches to a halt. I stand, and leave the bus, politely thanking the bus driver. I notice him staring at the faux-fur plush wolf tail strapped to my belt. I’d gotten occasional compliments on my gear and far more frequent insults, but I’ve learned to tune them out. Instead, I look forward as the bus drives away. I compare the address to the one my friend Kayla sent me.

This is it… I enter the clinic and take in my surroundings. There are about two dozen chairs scattered around the waiting room, but there are only four people besides me. A receptionist is seated behind the counter, reading a book.  A woman in a sky-blue crop top who seems to be covered in iridescent orange scales is arguing with a large draconic creature with deep red scales, a pair of wings, and two horns poking through a shock of blond hair. 

Wow, this place is weird…

Across the room, Kayla waves me over. She’s dressed in her signature flannel shirt and beanie. I sit down next to her, and sensing my anxiety, she squeezes my hand and gives me a reassuring smile. Just then the receptionist calls her name and she stands up and strides into the office. In an effort to tune out the arguing duo, I pop in my earbuds and listen to my favourite metal band, Powerwolf. Lost in the thrashing guitars, I almost don’t hear the receptionist call my name.

“Eric, the doctor will see you now.” I turn off the music. The arguing couple is gone. I’m the only patient in the clinic.

I walk into the office and sit in front of the infamous Dr. Theodore Erian. He doesn’t greet me, just rummages through his files. We spend five minutes in complete silence. Finally, he inquires “Werewolf hormone treatment?” “Yes,” I say stiffly.

He stares at me for about a minute, then sighs “Look, I’m going to be frank here. I’m not here to tell you what to do with your body. I’m just here to make sure you know what the risks are. That way you can’t sue us.” I wait for him to burst out laughing, but he’s completely serious. “After reading your files, I’ve found the best-fitting treatment for you. Due to the infective nature of lycanthropy, it takes hold quite fast. You’ll see a full transformation at the next full moon, a month from now. Just one shot will be required to administer the treatment."

Erian looks at me sternly. “Now I must also warn you that, while lycanthropy is not as much of a risk for identity and memory loss as other treatments, it can cause hormone imbalances that lead to incredible aggression, especially during transformations. Because of this, I strongly recommend that you restrain yourself during your first full moon. I’m also required by law to have your files sent to the police and be entered into the system. This way, if you do end up harming anyone during the full moon, you will be identified and prosecuted under the full extent of the law.” 

“Now, are you sure you want to go through with this?” I take a moment to process. Suddenly, I’m terrified of hurting people. Images of waking up covered in blood flood into my brain, and a third of me is screaming for me to walk out of this office and never return. I take a deep breath. And then I say, “Yes, I’m sure.” Cameos from @welldrawnfish, @ayviedoesthings, and @kaylasartwork!

12 Days of Fluffmas — Day 4: Cozy Fire

Flip Zimmerman x Reader

You could spend all day curled up in your chair like this: a knitted throw draped over your lap with a steaming mug of hot chocolate warming your hands as you gaze out the window. The view from the cabin you and Flip are renting for the week of Hanukkah is beautiful; snow blankets the surrounding forest and the Colorado mountains tower in the distance. However, you’re currently more interested in the foreground. Outside, Flip brings his ax down yet again to cleave a piece of wood in two, adding the logs to a growing pile. It’s a wonder to watch him work, all muscle and momentum as he splits firewood for you. You take another sip of cocoa as he finishes his task and gathers up an armful of wood to take inside.

A blast of icy air rushes in as he opens the front door and you pull your blanket up around you. Flip has a wash of color on his cheeks from the cold as he takes off his boots and hangs up his sherpa-lined jacket.

“Hi, baby” he smiles, taking in the sight of you where you’re all snuggled up. “You staying warm?” 

“All thanks to you,” you chime as he crosses the living room to deposit the wood next to the hearth and adds a few logs to the fire.

Satisfied with the blaze, he stretches out on the faux fur rug in front of the fireplace and pats on the floor next to him. “C’mere,” he says, eyes growing dark. “Let’s get you really warmed up.”

Paint a picture of a character by describing their bedroom while they’re not in it.

Here is the 1st of the writing exercises from this post for Farren.

Tagging op of that post @davycoquette as requested :) & @aquadestinyswriting as per

–––

Dt. Breakwood's bedroom is… Well. If a thief broke in, he'd think the place already tossed. A musky, manly odour pervades the space, joined with nicotine and the ethanolic scent of aftershave. Light filters in from a high window on the right wall, through undrawn flimsy cream curtains. They flutter, as if the window behind is cracked open. From the door you can see the room is… cosy, to be polite.

A double bed is to your right, a nightstand on each side. The covers are runkled – flung back on rising and never set right – but only on the side nearest the door. Likewise, only the nightstand closest to is covered in an assortment of pens, notepads, and other clutter. A radio sits on top of a Haynes manual for a Pontiac Trans Am, the water glass nudged perilously close to the edge. The other nightstand has a plain vase with a single, dusty, red silk rose.

Under the window is a bureau, the space just wide enough to pull back the chair. Amidst the clutter of curving correspondence, typed bills, paperweights, and treasury tags, is a small bowl containing a selection of keys, hard candy, chapstick and other pocket paraphernalia. On the top ledge, covered in a light film of dust, are a few framed photos – of Dt. Breakwood and a statuesque woman, both in wedding attire outside of a church; of a little dark-haired girl, all smiles and dimples; a black-and-white of a stern and worn looking couple in fashion from an older time, and draped over the frame, a sun motif necklace. A dusty succulent in a dry and chipped saucer, hangs over the end, partly obscuring candid Polaroids of colleagues from a recent party, tacked to the side of the bureau. You don't see any other keepsakes in here – most are in the condo's lounge.

A large, built-in wardrobe sits at the end of the bed with only a few feet of clearance between. Fortunately, the doors slide aside – with tall, rectangular faux-wood panels collected at one end to reveal the occupant's shirts and flares, some having fallen from their hangers, and socks dripping from part-closed drawers. To each side of the wardrobe is a wicker chair. To the left, the chair is olive green and covered with jeans, underwear, leisure pants; it's hard to tell the clean from the used. The maroon chair on the right is empty of clothing. Instead it seats two stuffed animals: a small teddy bear, with close-curled buttercream fur and a large squarish owl, with red body, a white breast and a beak flattened with love.

How to choose the right size and type of chair for your decor

When it comes to selecting the perfect seating addition for your home or office, there are a few things that might be valuable to keep in mind. 

First, consider the size of the space where the chair will be placed. A large, bulky chair may not work in a small room, while a small chair may look lost in a large space.

Next, think about the type of chair that will best suit your needs. Do you need a comfortable office chair with ample back support or a sleek, simple chair that will easily fit in with any space? Consider the material of the chair as well - do you want a fabric, wood, or leather finish? 

Finally, remember to take into account your own body size and posture needs when choosing a chair. These are all things that, by themselves, won't make or break your choice, but together you'll realize that some are more valuable to you than others. Keep them in mind, but above all-- have fun!

From their cozy, homespun look to the many ways they can enhance a room, the right piece of rustic-style furniture is perfect for elevating your home décor for years to come.

Touchy/Feely at Hillsborough Community College’s Gallery 221 in Tampa has a lot of great interactive (and non-interactive work) on view. The three artists in the exhibition- Jessica Caldas, Saumitra Chandratreya, and Emiliano Settecasi– have contributed work that explores important themes while also adding an element of fun by allowing the viewer to become actively involved in the show.

The Curatorial Statement by Alyssa Miller-

Art touches you, and sometimes you get to touch it back. Challenging conventional gallery manners, Touchy/Feely encourages visitors to assume the role of participant by handling and manipulating several of the works on view. Contemporary fiber artists disrupt the long-held distinction between art and craft, blending the conceptual with the experiential in a highly tactile medium. In Touchy/Feely, artists Jessica Caldas, Saumitra Chandratreya, and Emiliano Settecasi go one step further in collapsing the space between artist and viewer, exploring themes of labor, motherhood, relationships, conscious choice, and joy through fiber art that both holds and is held.

So much of art and history is exhibited at a distance, close enough to see but never touch. Whereas engaging with the nature of textiles can be familiar, exciting, and sensational. Combinations of art and cloth have a long and fraught history within contemporary art, such as the novelty of interactive exhibitions that can become a commodity in contemporary museums. Ogled and beaten become the play spaces, tarnished and brassy the sculptures, worn and bruised the forms become overtime through the nature of interaction. Touchy/Feely aims to be a space in between museum rules and contemporary art photo-ops. Here, artists display a mix of interactive and static artwork that exemplifies intense feeling, encouraging the viewer to make decisions in real time, and submerge themselves in something they did not expect.

Ultimately, this exhibition satisfies my urge to explore, manipulate, caress, and experience art in a way not many individuals are able to do. In working behind the scenes, I am allowed to safely satisfy my interest in exploration. I will forever be grateful to the HCC Art Galleries team for their dedication to students, staff, and artists for this exhibition and the work they do year-round. I hope that visitors come away from this exhibition with a new experience, perspective, feeling, or sensation.

This exhibition closes on 10/12/23.

Decorate your home in autumn with trending colors and textures - Interior Decoration

Autumn is the perfect season to give your home a new look. As the leaves change color and the weather gets cooler, it’s time to create a warm and cozy atmosphere indoors. Let’s consider incorporating autumn colors by decorating the walls, furniture, and upholstery. Include the orange tones of autumn leaves, brown, mustard yellow, green, velvet red, navy blue, and purple. It is also important to incorporate natural materials such as natural stone for countertops, wood for floors and furniture.

Nature-inspired textures such as rattan and mosaics or tiles with different patterns for the kitchen. We must remember that outdoor spaces during this transition from summer to autumn should not be forgotten. Occasionally the temperature drops a bit but still feels pleasant, on those days you can enjoy gardens on terraces or patios. It is ideal to continue using them in autumn, preparing cushions in autumn colors, adding thick-textured blankets and fireplaces to withstand the weather.

If you have the opportunity, it is the best option to continue enjoying nature, admire the green and feel the fresh air on our skin. Colors and textures that are trending in autumn for home Incorporate earthy tones for a natural feeling. When it comes to autumn, earthy tones are essential. Incorporating warm tones such as burnt orange, golden yellows, rustic browns, and deep reds will immediately give your home that pleasant autumn vibe. Consider using these colors on accent walls, cushions, and curtains. Not only will they add depth and character to your space, but they will also create a natural ambiance.

Add texture with fabrics and materials. Textures play a crucial role in creating visually interesting and cozy environments. In autumn, opt for cozy fabrics such as velvet, faux fur, and thick weaves. Place soft blankets on your sofas and chairs, or layer them on your bed for an extra touch of warmth and comfort. Incorporating textured materials such as rattan, wicker, and natural wood also adds a rustic element that perfectly complements the season. Use metallic accents to add elegance. To add a touch of glamour to your autumn decor, incorporate metallic accents.

Gold, copper, and brass accessories such as candle holders, vases, and photo frames can elevate the overall look of the space. Subtle touches of shiny metals alongside the warm earthy tones will create a harmonious mix of elegance and comfort. Bring nature indoors with fresh flowers and plants. Autumn is a season of abundance, and there is no better way to celebrate it than by bringing nature indoors. Fresh flowers and plants not only add beauty to your home but also purify the air and create a relaxing atmosphere. Opt for autumn flowers such as sunflowers, dahlias, and chrysanthemums.

Additionally, consider placing potted plants with colorful foliage such as crotons or coleus to add pops of vibrant tones to your space. Create a cozy ambiance with lighting. Lighting can have a significant impact on the ambiance of a room. During autumn, opt for soft, warm lighting to create a cozy atmosphere. Use warm white or amber-toned light bulbs in your lamps and sconces. Consider adding string lights or LED candles to create a warm glow. Don’t forget to incorporate candle holders and lanterns to create the ambiance of cool autumn nights. Experts recommend layered lighting as the best way to create a cozy atmosphere suitable for autumn decor.

Floor lamps or placed on shelves and side tables sufficiently illuminate a room without having to add ceiling lights. Add seasonal accessories for a festive touch. Add a touch of seasonal festivity by incorporating autumn-inspired accessories throughout your home. This could include decorative pumpkins, wreaths made of dried leaves or pinecones, or a bowl filled with scents of cinnamon, cloves, and nutmeg. These small additions will enhance the autumnal atmosphere and make your home feel cozy and festive. Renew your bedroom with autumn bedding. Create a cozy autumn retreat in your bedroom by updating your bedding. Choose sheets and duvet covers in warm colors such as ochre, burgundy, or dark green. Add layers of fluffy blankets and cushions in complementary colors and textures. Embrace the season by incorporating autumn patterns such as tartan or floral prints. In conclusion…

By incorporating warm earthy tones, cozy fabrics, metallic accents, fresh flowers, and seasonal details, you can transform your home into a cozy sanctuary that reflects the beauty of the season.

Modern Living Room Design Ideas in 2023

A modern living room design can set the tone for the entire home. It is the space where family and friends gather to relax and spend quality time together. In 2023, the importance of a modern living room design is greater than ever. People are spending more time at home due to the pandemic and rising of remote work. A well-designed living room can create a welcoming atmosphere. Also, the right design elements can make the space both functional and beautiful.

We'll explore the latest trends in modern living room design in 2023. So, let's dive in and discover how to create a living room that you'll love to spend time in.

Cozy Living Room Ideas

Creating a cozy space is one of the most important elements of a modern living room design. Your living room should give you a relaxing feel whether you're watching a movie or drinking a coffee.

These three cozy living room ideas can help you make a comfortable modern living room design:

Layered Textures:  One of the easiest ways to create a cozy living room is to layer textures. By incorporating soft throws, plush pillows, and a cozy area rug, you can add warmth and depth to the space. These textures make the room more comfortable and can create a visual ambiance. Using fabrics with different textures will add depth and variety to the space. You can use velvet, chenille, or faux fur in this situation.

Warm Lighting:  Another way to create a cozy living room is to incorporate warm lighting. Using dimmer switches on your living room lights can help you create a relaxing ambiance. This will be perfect for movie nights or unwinding after a long day. You can also use table lamps, floor lamps, or even string lights to create soft lighting. These styles complement the surrounding design of your living room. Lighting is the key to creating a warm and welcoming environment when it comes to cozy living room ideas. 

Using Natural Elements: Incorporating natural elements helps to create a cozy living room. Bringing in plants, wood, and stone can create a natural and relaxing environment. Consider a large fiddle leaf fig or a collection of smaller plants, to add a pop of color and freshness to the room. Natural materials such as a wooden coffee table or a stone fireplace can add a bit of nature to the space. 

Comfortable Family Rooms

In addition to creating a cozy living room, designing a comfortable family room is another important aspect of modern living room design. Family rooms are typically more casual and functional than formal living rooms, and they're often the go-to space for relaxing and spending time together as a family.

Here are three comfortable family room ideas that can help you create a modern living room design that's perfect for family time:

Flexible Seating: When designing a family room, it's important to have flexible seating options that can accommodate everyone in the family. Consider using sectional sofas, oversized chairs, or even bean bag chairs to provide a variety of seating options that can be easily rearranged to suit different activities.

Entertainment Center: A comfortable family room should also be equipped with an entertainment center that can accommodate a variety of media. Whether it's a large-screen TV, a gaming console, or a sound system, make sure your family room has everything you need to enjoy your favorite shows, movies, and games.

Kid-Friendly Design: If you have children, it's important to design your family room with their needs in mind. Consider using durable and easy-to-clean fabrics, such as leather or microfiber, to prevent spills and stains. Additionally, you can incorporate kid-friendly elements such as a play area or a chalkboard wall to keep them entertained while you relax.

By incorporating these comfortable family room ideas, you can create a modern living room design that's perfect for spending time with family and friends. Whether you're watching a movie, playing games, or just hanging out, a comfortable family room is a perfect place to relax and enjoy quality time together.

Interior Design for Modern Living Room

When it comes to interior design for a modern living room, there are several elements to consider, such as color, furniture, and decor. Here are some interior design ideas that can help you create a modern living room that's both functional and stylish:

Bold Colors: One way to make a statement in your modern living room is to use bold colors. Whether it's a brightly-colored accent wall or a bold sofa, using vibrant colors can add personality and depth to the space. Consider using jewel tones, such as emerald green or sapphire blue, or bold shades of red or yellow to create a bold and modern look.

Minimalist Furniture: Another hallmark of modern living room design is minimalist furniture. Sleek and simple furniture pieces with clean lines and neutral colors can help create an uncluttered and streamlined look. Consider using furniture made from natural materials such as wood or leather to add warmth and texture to the space.

Statement Lighting: Lighting can be a key element in modern living room design, and statement lighting fixtures can add a touch of drama and interest to the space. Consider using a chandelier, a unique pendant light, or a modern floor lamp to create a focal point and add visual interest.

Eclectic Decor: To add personality and character to your modern living room, consider incorporating eclectic decor pieces that reflect your personal style. Mix and match different textures, patterns, and materials to create a space that's uniquely yours. Consider using vintage or handmade items, such as a woven wall hanging or a unique piece of pottery, to add a touch of character and charm to the room.

By incorporating these interior design ideas, you can create a modern living room that's both stylish and functional. Whether you prefer bold colors or minimalist furniture, there are many ways to create a modern living room design that's perfect for your home and lifestyle.

Modern Living Room Ideas

If you're looking to update your living room to a modern style, there are many ideas and trends to consider. Here are four modern living room ideas that are currently trending in 2023 and how you can incorporate them into your own space:

Mixed Materials: Mixing different materials such as wood, metal, and glass can create a modern and sophisticated look in your living room. Consider using a glass coffee table with metal legs, a wooden media console with metal hardware, or a leather chair with a metal frame to create a chic and modern space.

Bold Patterns: Using bold patterns such as geometric shapes, stripes, and abstract designs can add visual interest and energy to a modern living room. Consider using patterned throw pillows, area rugs, or wallpaper to add a pop of color and texture to the space.

Statement Art: A large, statement art piece can create a focal point in your modern living room and add a touch of sophistication and elegance. Consider using a large abstract painting, a modern sculpture, or a gallery wall of smaller pieces to create a bold and modern look.

Tech-Friendly Design: With the increasing importance of technology in our lives, tech-friendly design is becoming more popular in modern living rooms. Consider incorporating built-in charging stations, hidden outlets, and smart home systems to make your living room both stylish and functional.

Incorporating these modern living room ideas into your own space can help you create a chic and sophisticated look that reflects your personal style. Whether you choose to mix materials, use bold patterns, display statement art, or integrate technology into your design, there are many ways to create a modern living room that's both stylish and functional.

Crafting the Perfect Fall Decor for Your Home 🍂

As the crisp air begins to replace the warmth of summer and the leaves transform into vibrant hues of red, orange, and gold, there's an undeniable magic in the atmosphere – it's the enchanting season of fall. With its cozy ambiance and nostalgic charm, fall beckons us to update our living spaces with the perfect decor that captures the essence of the season. From warm color palettes to rustic accents, creating the ideal fall decor allows you to transform your home into a haven of comfort and beauty. In this blog post, we will explore the elements that make up the perfect fall decor and offer inspiring ideas to help you infuse your home with the spirit of autumn.

Color Palette: Nature's Warm Embrace

The cornerstone of any fall decor is the color palette. Autumn's natural hues evoke a sense of warmth and comfort, making it essential to choose a palette that mimics the changing leaves and cozy fireside moments. Rich tones like deep oranges, warm reds, golden yellows, and earthy browns should take center stage. Consider incorporating these shades through textiles, wall art, and decorative accessories. Additionally, don't shy away from incorporating deep greens and muted purples to add depth and contrast to your decor.

Nature-Inspired Accents: Bringing the Outdoors In

One of the most captivating aspects of fall is the visual transformation of the outdoors. Incorporating natural elements into your decor will not only capture the spirit of the season but also create a harmonious connection with nature. Start by gathering fallen branches, pinecones, acorns, and dried leaves to create stunning centerpieces and mantel displays. Arrange them in decorative baskets, glass vases, or even as wreaths to infuse your home with a touch of the outdoors. Dried cornstalks and wheat bundles can also be used to add height and texture to your decor.

Cozy Textiles: Embracing Comfort

Fall decor is all about embracing warmth and comfort, and textiles play a crucial role in achieving this ambiance. Swap out lightweight summer fabrics for cozy throws, plush cushions, and soft area rugs in textures like knits, flannels, and faux furs. Drape a warm throw over the back of your sofa and pile up cushions in varying sizes and patterns to create an inviting seating area. Consider layering rugs to add depth to your space while keeping your toes warm on chilly mornings.

Candlelit Glow: Flickering Elegance

The soft, flickering glow of candlelight can instantly transform any space into a haven of tranquility. Incorporate candles of different sizes and shapes into your fall decor to create an inviting ambiance. Opt for scented candles that evoke the aromas of the season, such as pumpkin spice, cinnamon, or apple cider. Place candles in decorative holders or lanterns and arrange them on your dining table, coffee table, and mantel to cast a warm and enchanting glow throughout your home.

Pumpkin Paradise: Whimsical Accents

No fall decor would be complete without the quintessential pumpkin. These versatile gourds come in various shapes, sizes, and colors, making them ideal for creating whimsical accents. Beyond traditional orange pumpkins, explore a range of colors like white, green, and even metallic shades to suit your decor theme. Arrange a variety of pumpkins on your doorstep, line them along your staircase, or create a captivating centerpiece by stacking different sizes on a decorative tray. For a creative twist, consider painting or embellishing pumpkins with intricate designs or typography that reflects the season.

Tablescapes: Feasting in Style

Fall is a season of gatherings and feasts, and your dining table can serve as a canvas for your fall decor creativity. Start with a textured table runner or a rustic wooden table to set the foundation. Layer on elegant dinnerware in warm tones and complement them with gold or copper-toned flatware. Intertwine natural elements like mini pumpkins, pinecones, and dried leaves with fairy lights down the center of the table for an ethereal touch. Finish the look with personalized place cards and coordinating napkin rings for a truly inviting and elegant tablescape.

Embracing the beauty of fall through decor is a delightful way to connect with the changing seasons and infuse your home with a sense of enchantment. By carefully curating a warm color palette, incorporating nature-inspired accents, embracing cozy textiles, illuminating spaces with candlelight, celebrating pumpkins, and crafting inviting tablescapes, you can create a perfect fall decor that invites you and your loved ones to revel in the magic of the season. So, gather your autumnal treasures and let your creativity flow as you transform your living space into a cozy haven that captures the essence of fall's enchantment.
