Electric Overhead Travelling Cranes-Applications and Types
Cranes are essential in industries and working environments. They are mostly employed in the automotive, construction, and shipbuilding industries. They are used to lift and handle huge things and materials that would be impossible to do by hand. They make work easier and increase productivity. Cranes of various sorts are used for diverse reasons. Industries use them according to their needs. Each crane is designed with distinct features to satisfy the needs of its customers. The EOT crane, also known as Electric Overhead Traveling Cranes, is one of the most prevalent and popular types of cranes.
 What Is EOT Crane? 
Electric overhead travelling cranes are also known as EOT cranes. This is the most frequent type of crane used for lifting and moving heavy goods. These cranes are powered by electricity and controlled by a control pendant, radio/IR remote pendant, or an operator cabin attached to the crane. It is possible to lift both heavy and light loads with these cranes. It is also called as bridge cranes since it is made up of a parallel runway connected by a moving bridge. The hoist is attached to the moving bridge. Crane Hook Up and Down Lifting, Trolley Lateral Movement, and Crane Long Traveling Longitudinal Motion are its three functional movements.
 Features Of EOT Cranes 
EOT (Electric Overhead Traveling) cranes are distinguished from other types of overhead cranes by the following characteristics: 
·       A heavy-duty cast steel rope guide is included.
·       It is made of strong materials.
·       It is simple to use and requires little upkeep.
·       It also has upper and lower hook travel restriction switches.
·       EOT crane motors are TEFC motors with F class insulation. TEFC is an abbreviation for completely enclosed, fan closed.
·       It's also resistant to corrosion.
 Applications Of EOT Cranes 
Electric Overhead Traveling cranes have numerous uses and are utilised in a variety of sectors. Some of them are as follows: 
·       Power Plant
·       Transport Industry
·       Construction Industry
·       Petrochemical Industry
·       Chemical Industries
·       Steel Plant
·       Ceramic industries
·       Dairy Industries
·       Foundries
·       Textile Industry
·       Cement Industry
 Types Of EOT Cranes 
EOT cranes are classified into two types: single girder EOT and double girder EOT.
 1. Single Girder EOT Crane 
The single girder EOT crane features a single girder with a trolley and hoist running parallel to the axis. It features a single main girder connecting the parallel runways and does not require a rail component for movement on the runway. It is made of motors that are mounted and vertical gearboxes. It is simple to use with a push-button pendant station or radio remote control. These Electric Overhead Traveling cranes have a snap action limit switch that allows the hoist to travel upward and downward. It has a four-wheel layout in the long journey end carriage. These cranes are typically used for handling small to medium-sized goods and commodities. Single girder EOT cranes are lighter than double girder EOT cranes and are often utilised for brief periods of time.
 Features Of Single Girder EOT Cranes 
The following characteristics are shared by single girder EOT cranes: 
·       A total of 20 tonnes can be lifted by this crane.
·       It is more suited for lifting light objects.
·       It has a small design that reduces the building load.
·       There is only one primary bridge.
·       It lowers the total crane cost in terms of components, building, and runway structure.
 In What Conditions Can Single Girder EOT Cranes Be Used? 
If the following conditions are met, single girder EOT cranes can be employed. 
·       The lifting capacity should range from 15 to 50 feet.
·       It should have a maximum speed of 200fpm.
·       Its hoisting speed should be between 10 and 60 feet per minute.
·       It should cross at a speed of 100 feet per minute.
 2. Double Girder EOT Crane 
The double girder EOT crane has two trolleys and hoists that run along the axis of the beam. Both sides of these cranes feature a platform. A crab mechanism runs along both of the girders. These are typically used for maintenance. It is made up of motors positioned on the feet and horizontal gearboxes. In contrast to the single girder, which cannot be managed by the cabin, it may be operated by the push-button pendant, radio remote control, and operating cabin mode. There are two sorts of limit switches in this type of EOT crane. The first is the rotary limit switch, which calculates hook travel and controls upward and downward movement. It also features an extra switch known as the gravity limit switch, which is intended to keep the limit switch operational. The double girder EOT crane has an easy-to-maintain eight-wheel configuration.
 Features Of Double Girder EOT Cranes 
The following are the distinguishing characteristics of twin girder EOT cranes: 
·       It is intended for the lifting of heavy materials and objects.
·       It is capable of lifting up to 250 tonnes.
·       It is less expensive than a single-girder EOT crane.
·       Because it contains two girders, it is more robust and solid.
·       Alloy steel, hardened, precision-cut gears are included.
·       It can be used at any capacity, including when a high hook lift is necessary.
 In What Conditions Can Single Girder EOT Cranes Be Used? 
If the following conditions are met, single girder EOT cranes can be employed. 
·       Lifting capacity should range between 15 and 50 feet.
·       It should have a maximum speed of 350fpm.
·       It should have a lifting speed of 60 feet per minute.
·       It should cross at a speed of 150 feet per minute.
 Conclusion 
EOT cranes are reliable, safe, and available at a more competitive EOT crane price in comparison to other types of overhead cranes. They have a wide range of applications and are extensively employed in industries. Electric overhead travelling cranes are important instruments and equipment used in industrial production, transportation, and manufacturing processes. 
Cranes, for example, go through a lot of wear and tear throughout the course of their lives. As a result, it is critical to get your cranes inspected on a regular basis. 
Creating health checkup reports, combined with technical expert suggestions, can provide you with accurate information about the status of your crane. Experts assist you in making an informed decision and selecting the best course of action to improve the safety and longevity of your cranes. These inspections must cover all crane components to ensure their integrity and compliance with industry and safety regulations.

Chapter 8 of Fade Into You
Warnings/tags: Fluff, soft smut, 
Pairing: Rita/Reader
A/N: Picks up right after Chapter 7, click through for a refresher, because it’s been a year a while since I’ve updated. Covers the “Oh fuck. Do that again.” square of @prentiss-theorem​’s bingo. It’s a rush job, partially because I wanted to at least attempt to participate in bingo, and partially because I’m sick of this story and not updating. 
Brief summary of why I haven’t updated. 
Tumblr media
Where last night had been frantic, fast and rough, and so very desperate. The dawn that this morning brought was a stark contrast, soft and gentle, both of you finally allowing yourselves to show your vulnerability, without hesitation. Your eyes were glued to the others’ as you watched the swirls of pleasure darken them, soft words fanning your necks as your pupils dilated, and lips parted. 
It was so very different from the night prior, where your eyes had been scrunched so tightly shut, or looking away, focusing on something else, out of some innate need to protect yourself. 
It was as if Rita could read your mind, that last night she knew exactly what you wanted, what you needed, without you even having to hint at it, you hadn’t needed to speak or contort your bodies, she just knew. This morning was no different, as your guard lowered to allow her to see you fully like this, soft kisses and intense gazes as you chased your peaks together. 
Afterwards as you both laid there, the tips of her fingers travelled up and down your back, no clear path or pattern to the movements, and when they traced over your neck and into the nape where your hair met, you moaned softly and shivered against her. 
She leaned in, as her hand wrapped itself in your hair, softly tugging against the roots as she started kissing and sucking against the skin below your ear, every so often delivering a bite before soothing over the mark with her tongue. 
And later when she laid her knees next to your head, arching her back as your nails ran down her toned stomach, you’d never thought you’d seen anything so beautiful. The sun rose above the curtains and the windows, through the clouds and buildings, casting a luminous orange glow over the room, and the two of you. 
The light pierced through the windows as she came undone, on top of you, and that’s when you knew, for certain, you’d never seen anything so beautiful. The glow from the sun spread across her chest as her hands gripped your head tighter and her mouth formed the perfect ‘O’, as she shook above you. 
You both let out low laughs when she came down, and rolled over next to you, swollen lips meeting for kisses as your eyelids leisurely closed, soft breaths as you fell asleep once more.
Tumblr media
When you finally roused that morning, you did so with a lopsided grin on your face, the images of the night gone, and the early morning just been, flashing through your mind. A shiver travelled up your spine as your body remembered what she had done to it. The feeling of her tongue and hands as they memorised the length of you. 
You rolled over, expecting to find her asleep beside you, instead finding the sheets pulled back and no sign of her. You rubbed the sleep out of your eyes, sitting up, and craning your neck towards the door, listening for any sounds of life on the other side. You stretched out, raising your arms and rolling your neck. That’s when you spotted the note on the bedside table, ‘Gone to get breakfast. Be back soon x’. You smiled and breathed a short sigh of relief that she hadn’t panicked and left you here. You laughed silently to yourself and shook your head, of course she hadn’t fled and left you in her own apartment.  
You walked into the ensuite and as the bright overhead lights clicked on, and you were met with your reflection in the mirror, you gasped at the sight of the purple hues of bruising that were so vivid on your chest and neck. You traced your fingers over them, feeling where teeth and lips had met skin. 
You took a moment to comb your fingers through your hair, settling it, sweeping it to one side and over one shoulder. You turned your head ever so slightly, as the light bounced off the mark she’d left on your neck, you circled it delicately with the tip of your finger, remembering the feeling of it, and how you desperately wanted her to leave more. 
After freshening up, you reached for the first piece of clothing you saw, Rita’s oxford button down that laid neatly across the armchair in the corner. Slipping it on and buttoning the bottom buttons up until they stopped at your sternum. 
When you walked out and down the hallway, you almost jumped out of your skin when you saw her seated at the kitchen island, demitasse cup in one hand, newspaper in the other. 
“You’re awake” she smiled softly as she set aside the paper and cup, leaning forward and resting her head in her hand as she looked over at you. 
“Well I was cold, and lonely.” you yawned “Why’d you let me sleep so long?” 
“Seemed like you needed it.” She shrugged, then she drank you in, noting the tiredness under your eyes and the third yawn that escaped you as you stood there, leaning against the counter. “You get used to the long hours, don’t worry.”
“Thanks” You reached over to the sink, grabbing your glass from the night prior, rinsing it before filling it from the tap, trying not to gulp down the water. “Somehow I don’t think the reason I’m tired is because of work.” If you weren’t paying attention, you would have missed the quick flash of her lips that turned into a smirk, and the way her eyes flashed fleetingly with something that resembled a frantic mix of excitement and smug pride. 
“Lonely huh?” she raked her eyes over you. The tension between the two of you was building again, like it had done last night, and for years prior, like a bubble waiting to burst. “Do you want coffee?” you heard her ask it, but it was faint, your mind elsewhere, you took a breath and blinked, shaking your head lightly, and when you met her eyes again, you simply smiled quickly and nodded. 
You turned your head, looking for the pot, and your eyes widened when you saw that she had an actual espresso machine, and not a drip one like you were used to. “I don’t know how to use that” you pointed and she laughed. 
Rounding the island, coming to stand behind you, her arms wrapped around your waist as she leant in and kissed your neck, and then the spot just below your ear. “I’ll show you” she whispered and you broke out with goosebumps when her breath hit your neck, and her words lingered on your skin. 
She put her hands on your hips, gently moving you out of the way, and you could hardly focus, your stomach doing somersaults every time she touched you. You tugged on the bottom of your shirt, pulling it down to cover the tops of your thighs before hopping up onto the island, crossing your legs as you watched her. The marble was cold under the bare skin of your thighs, and sobered you momentarily, like plunging into the ice. 
“Milk?” she hummed out in question as she flitted around, pulling out the beans and turning on the machine. 
“Please” you answered before the whirring sounds of the machine and grinder filled the room. You took her in, your eyes tracing all the way up her frame, glued to the sway of her hips, the perfect curves she possessed, and her long hair that cascaded down her back. She stole a quick glance over her shoulder and she simpered, looking pleased with herself, much like she always did.
“Are you paying attention?” 
“Hmm?” you ran the pad of your thumb over your lips and when you looked up to find her looking intently at you, a perfect smirk plastered on her face, you blushed and ducked your head down. 
You uncrossed your legs when she turned, mug in her hand, wrist outstretched as she presented it to you. You took it from her, your fingers running over hers when you gripped the handle. She looked down at your thighs, and then back up at you, taking a few steps until you uncrossed your legs and she was standing in between them. Your breath hitched in your throat when she ran her palms over the bare skin. 
“Nice shirt” She ran her hands further up your thighs, gripped down, as you sipped from your mug, she stopped abruptly when she reached the crease where they ended and your hips began. Realisation on her face when her fingers felt what was missing, “You’re not wearing…” she trailed off, and you placed the mug down on the counter, biting your lip as you felt the tension begin to bubble over, and when she swept her eyes up to meet yours, you gave her a coy smile, and that was all it took. She surged up, forcefully claiming your lips with hers. 
Your legs wrapped around her waist, reeling her in closer as tongues battled, and lips rolled together. She unbuttoned the shirt and swept the seams off your chest, pulling back, she reached her fingers out, ghosting them over your nipple, watching the way it stiffened as it bloomed, before pinching it. Not hard enough for it to sting or burn underneath her fingertips, just enough for her to amuse herself at the way your body reacted, at the soft moan that escaped your lips, and the way your eyes changed colours as they slowly rolled back. 
She trailed her fingers down your chest and stomach, watching the way you reacted, your skin pricking as goosebumps formed. You both let out moans when her fingers entered you, breaths swirling together as they danced between lips and mouths. Your hips rolled in time with the movements of her wrist, and when she pulled them forward deep inside of you, you almost came undone. 
“Oh fuck. Do that again.” you sobbed through airy gasps and breaths, and you knew she was smirking, without even having to look at her, the arrogance radiated off her. 
“Can you take another?” she husked and you couldn’t speak, a strangled sob leaving your throat as you nodded furiously. “Good girl” she bit your earlobe and in that same moment, flicked her thumb up to your clit. You swore you could have come right in that moment, and as embarrassing as that was, you probably would have, if it wasn’t for her pulling her fingers out, a huff of laughter on your neck as she took in your reaction. “You like it when I call you that, don’t you?” and when you didn’t answer she bit into your neck, into a bruise she’d left the night before. “I asked you a question.” 
“Yes.. yes..” you closed your eyes, and bit down on your bottom lip, almost hard enough that it drew blood. 
“Open your eyes, I want to watch you when you come.” you moaned involuntarily at that, but kept your eyes firmly closed. She pinched your thigh, forcing your eyes to come flying open, a wicked smile gracing her lips. She eased back into you with three fingers and your mouth flew open, breath hitching in your throat, at the stretch and how amazing it felt, this delicate swirl of pleasure and pain. She stared intently into your eyes and then dropped down to your lips, watching the way they arched as she fucked you. 
When she pressed her thumb to your clit, rubbing intently, your eyes rolled back into your skull, screaming out as your entire body convulsed and shook, your hips almost levitating off the counter. You wanted to cry, scream, and even laugh. How was she so good at that?
She pulled her fingers out before you could continue to ruminate on it, drawing your attention back to her standing in front of you. You gripped her wrist, looking at her through hooded lids, raising her hand to your mouth as you cleaned off her fingers, one at a time. 
“What am I going to do now?” she murmured, as she watched you take her fingers into your mouth, your tongue swirling around them.  
“Hmm?” you were only fractionally listening to her, too consumed on the taste in your mouth and the look on her face as she watched you.
“I still want a taste” she purred, and you simpered as you laid back, blissed out. Wondering if it would always be like this, that every time she touched you, would leave you this breathless, this bone-weary. 
“So, dirty talk huh?” she ran the palm of her hand over your stomach, and you could hear the infliction of laughter as she spoke. 
“Shut up” you giggled, swatting her hand away. As you laid there, you heard her moving around and then the sound of something being put on the floor in front of you. You sat up, and laughed when you saw it was a stool. She raised her eyebrows at you, smirking as she pulled it forward and sat down, gripping onto your calves as she pulled you forward, and rested them on her shoulders. 
“You can try, but I won’t be able to come again so soon.” You murmured softly as you gently wove your hands through her hair. Scratching at her scalp and tugging on her tresses as she kissed up your thighs. 
“Yes you can.” she gazed up at you, a smug smile firmly in place as she spoke directly and frankly, even somewhat delicately when she kissed the inside of your thigh, resting her head where she had just kissed, gazing up at you, as if she was asking permission to continue. 
“Knock yourself out” you shrugged in disbelief, being polite and not wanting to damage her ego, you expected her to tire herself out after half an hour or just there after, but instead you were shocked, and almost excited, when less than ten minutes later, you were crying out once more, shuddering as you gripped her hands, spilling into her mouth and once more onto her tongue, another wave washing over you.
Tumblr media
“So last night was a lot” she spoke softly from her position across from you, leaning against the counter, her eyes not yet meeting yours, staring into the distance as she raised her mug to her lips.
“Pent up sexual frustration, Rita.” you rolled your eyes, and she laughed for a moment before her tone changed, becoming softer and quieter as she looked at you. 
“It wasn’t too much was it?” she hesitated “I mean, I should have probably…” 
“What?” 
“Asked you before I-” Oh, so that’s what she meant. She was skirting around saying it fully aloud, maybe out of some form of prudishness or out of some innate need to protect you, or maybe it was because despite her brash outward demeanour and facade, this was who she truly was at the core of her being, tender and gentle, and maybe just a little demure underneath it all. 
“-Strapped me?” you brashly interrupted her, shrugging as you reached for your mug, and she started choking on her own breath, much to your amusement. “You did ask” 
“I should have been slower… more gentle… checked in with you more.” she fiddled with the handle of the mug in her hands, and you could recognise the seeds of doubt she was planting in her own head.
“Rita” you said her name gently, coaxing her attention back to you. “If I had wanted that, I would have stopped you, and we would have had a conversation.” you watched as she exhaled and her features softened, some of the tension she was carrying beginning to ease. 
“Is that what you really wanted last night? Something more akin to earlier this morning?” you searched her eyes, trying to catch a glimpse of the truth, and when she didn’t give you anything, you spoke once more, with more assertion this time. “You told me… well showed me. You showed me what you wanted, it was hot.” she smiled then, and the light in her eyes changed. 
“So do you want pancakes?” she asked as she put the now empty mug down, and pushed off the counter to stand in between your legs. 
“You made breakfast?” you looked at her perplexingly, she wasn’t, by her own admission, the greatest cook. You winced a little internally at the thought of having to feign interest in whatever she had prepared, or attempted to prepare. 
“Don’t be ridiculous.” she laughed “I put an order in at Bubby’s.” and with that admission your stomach settled and you let out a quiet sigh of relief. “Okay, you don’t have to look so relieved.” she huffed, partially annoyed and partially amused. 
“Come here” you tugged on her shirt “Thank you for not making breakfast.” you whispered teasingly as you kissed her.
Tumblr media
The two of you never managed to leave her apartment over the weekend, seemingly losing track of time. When you weren’t in bed, you both snacked, and ate where you could, take out dropped at the door, pizza consumed on the living room floor. 
The nights were spent drinking red wine and listening to her record collection, talking and debating, much like you had done for years, except this time, you couldn’t control yourselves, and neither of you wanted to. You both yearned to learn every part of one another. You’d make it maybe halfway through an album, or a conversation, if you were lucky, before your eyes would consume one another, and your lips would devour the others’.

"Industrial Lifting Solutions: Exploring Wire Rope Hoists and Overhead Cranes"
Wire Rope Hoist
The wire rope hoist is a common piece of lifting equipment used in many different sectors to lift and move heavy items. It comprises of a hoisting device that performs the lifting and lowering operations using a wire rope, a drum or sheave, and a motor.
A wire rope hoist has the following essential elements and characteristics:
High-strength wire rope, usually made of steel, is used in the hoisting mechanism to lift the load. A drum or sheave that is attached to the motor is wrapped with wire rope.
Motor: The hoist has an electric motor that powers a drum or sheave, giving it the force needed to raise and lower a load. Both manual and remote control methods are available for controlling the motor. Drum/Sheave: The wire rope is looped around a drum for lifting objects vertically and a sheave for moving objects horizontally. When the motor is running, the drum/sheave, which is attached to the motor shaft, spins, forcing the wire rope to wind up or unwind.
Tumblr media
Safety precautions: To ensure the protection of both the operator and the cargo being hoisted, wire rope hoists are built with a number of safety precautions. These could include braking systems to secure the load in the event of a power outage, emergency stop buttons, overload protection devices, and limit switches to avoid overtravel.
Wire rope hoists are available in a variety of load capacities to meet varied lifting needs. They may be modest hoists with a few hundred-kilogram lifting capacities or huge hoists that can lift several tonnes.
Options for Mounting: Depending on the situation, wire rope hoists can be installed in a variety of ways. They can be incorporated into crane systems, mounted on trolleys for horizontal mobility, or positioned on overhead beams or other structures.
Industries like manufacturing, construction, storage, and logistics frequently use wire rope hoists. They are prized for their power, toughness, and adaptability in safely lifting and moving heavy things.
Jib crane
A jib crane is a particular kind of crane that moves, raises, and lowers objects using a horizontal arm known as a jib or boom. It is frequently utilized in industrial settings, building sites, and warehouses where efficient and targeted lifting activities are required. In order to spin or swing horizontally to reach various locations within its working radius, the jib crane is often positioned on a vertical mast or wall.
Here are some essential characteristics and parts of a jib crane:
Jib or Boom: The crane’s horizontal arm that extends from the mast or wall-mounted support is known as a jib or boom. It offers the flexibility and reach needed to shift goods horizontally. The jib has a 180-degree rotational range. Depending on the design and use, the jib can turn 180 degrees or even 360 degrees.
Jib cranes can be fastened to a wall or a column or installed vertically on a mast. The crane is supported by the mast or wall, which also lends stability to lifting operations. A self-supporting foundation and a freestanding design are features of some jib cranes.
Jib cranes have a hoisting mechanism that might be a wire rope hoist, chain hoist, electric or hydraulic winch, or another type of hoisting system. The loads are raised and lowered along the vertical axis using the hoisting mechanism. Depending on the requirements of the crane, the hoist can be either manually or electrically operated.
Jib cranes are made to rotate or swing horizontally to offer coverage inside a predetermined radius. The crane can be rotated manually by the operator turning a handwheel or lever, or it can be propelled by electric or hydraulic motors for simpler and more streamlined operation.
Jib cranes are equipped with control systems that let operators move the crane and manage the lifting and lowering processes. These control mechanisms can be integrated into a central control panel, pendant controls with push buttons, or remote controls.
Jib cranes are offered in a range of load capacities to accommodate various lifting needs. They can be anything from light-duty cranes that have a few hundred kilograms lifting capacities to heavy-duty cranes that can lift several tonnes.
Jib cranes are fitted with safety elements to guarantee secure operations. These could include safety brakes to hold the load in place in the event of a power outage, emergency stop buttons, load limiters to prevent overload, and limit switches to prevent overtravel.
Jib cranes are renowned for their adaptability because they may be employed in a stationary position or in conjunction with other lifting tools, such as overhead cranes or gantry cranes, to cover wider work areas. They are a popular option in many industries because they allow accurate and efficient lifting and moving of items in confined spaces.
Overhead crane, Overhead traveling crane A crane that uses an elevated runway system is called an Overhead crane commonly referred to as an overhead traveling crane or a bridge crane. For lifting and transporting big loads over a predetermined area, it is frequently used in industrial settings, manufacturing facilities, building sites, and warehouses.
Here are some essential characteristics and parts of an overhead crane:
Bridge: The crane’s primary horizontal beam, or bridge, spans the working space’s breadth. End trucks or end carriages that move along the elevated runways generally support it. The hoisting device is supported by and can move horizontally on the bridge.
The hoisting mechanism is in charge of raising and lowering the loads. It could be a hydraulic or electric winch, wire rope hoist, or chain hoist. In order to perform vertical lifting operations, the hoist is mounted on the bridge and moves along the length of the bridge.
Runway System: The crane moves along parallel elevated rails or runways in the runway system. The bridge and end trucks can move horizontally along the runways. Normally, they are fixed to steel beams or columns that are firmly anchored to the framework of the building.
The wheels or rollers that go along the runways are housed in the end trucks or end carriages, which are situated at either end of the bridge. They give the bridge stability and support, allowing it to move horizontally along the system of runways.
Control system: Overhead cranes have control systems that give the operator control over the raising and lowering processes as well as crane movement. These control systems may come with integrated control panels, remote controllers, or pendant controls.
Overhead cranes have a number of safety elements to guarantee secure operations. These might consist of load limiters to prevent overload, emergency stop buttons, limit switches to prevent overtravel, anti-collision technology, and safety brakes to hold the load in place in the event of a power outage.
weight Capacity: Depending on the application’s unique requirements, overhead cranes are available in a wide range of weight capacities, from a few hundred kilograms to several hundred tonnes. The crane’s design, the stability of the supporting structure, and the lifting mechanism employed all have an impact on the load capacity.
In terms of their capacity to handle high loads, cover expansive work areas, and deliver precise and controlled movements, overhead cranes have many advantages. They are frequently utilized in sectors where safe and effective material handling is essential, boosting production and reducing the need for manual labor.

Nothing is as Quiet as When I'm With You
You can find all masterlists at the top of my page (AO3, Genshin Impact, Ikemen Sengoku, and Ikemen Vampire). NOTES: Gender neutral insert of choice, be it the Traveler or yourself. No thoughts, only Tighnari fluff.
---:::---
Being with Tighnari was always quiet. 
Not the quiet of too long spent mulling over difficult questions, or the unsettling silence that always predicated danger. It was nothing like the eerie calm that followed a harrowing fight. Time spent in his tent–be it in Gandharva Ville or in the forest itself–was difficult to pin down. 
They’d only experienced it once before. After so much time bouncing around between cities and conflicts and adventuring jobs, the crackle of Electro and the sizzle of Pyro and the frigid crack of Cryo everywhere , they’d become accustomed to the sonic drone. But they’d stopped at a river in Liyue to bathe (alone, alone for once in a very long time), sucked in air, and slipped backwards under the water. The sandy riverbed was clear and cool. In the unfamiliar calm, they opened their eyes and stared up at the water’s surface, admiring the sunlight rippling overhead. 
This felt the same way; a sliver of time barely present before it was gone, so precious and fleeting that it verged on unreal. Mawtiyima Forest was cool and crisp and quiet. Air like a clear river filled their lungs. Only the faint rustle of clothing and breathing slid past the hazy, blanketing silence. 
“Look at me,” Tighnari murmured. He sounded amused. They could picture his expression; wide awake despite the early hours, eyes slivered and mouth cocked. “Are you falling back asleep?”
“No.” It was half-true. They’d barely woken to begin with. 
He hummed, disbelieving, and rubbed his thumb against their jaw. A new sound: Tighnari’s persistent heartbeat. They nestled into the crook of his arm and inhaled. The familiar woody, rich scent of his study samples and bark and rain and the balm he coated his tail in wrapped around them. 
If pressed, it was difficult to pinpoint where this all began. They’d entered Gandharva Ville, made themselves familiar with the rangers, accepted the pamphlets, been scolded by Tighnari for recklessness in unfamiliar territory. Somewhere along the way, they’d become friends. Somewhere further, they’d become comfortable (comfortable the way that only people who used their bodies in work and war could be, proximity unfamiliar to those with the luxury to maintain a psychic distance from themselves, an easy, open relationship with being manually steered and physically acknowledged and grabbed and moved). 
And then sharing a tent became accidentally waking wrapped around Tighnari’s leg (they hadn’t heard the end of that joke for weeks). And then the accidental contact became normal. And then it became gentle. And somewhere between the tenth and twentieth time they awoke in The-World-Doesn’t-Exist-Yet hours of the morning, legs interlaced with his, cheek resting on his collarbone, nose grazing his neck, Tighnari changed their dynamic once more.
(This time it was intentional. The same silence had wreathed them then, too.)
For once, Tighnari wasn’t wearing his gloves. His nails grew in tiny diamond talons, fingers verging on human-but-not-quite. Against their cheek, the bones in his palm felt shockingly foreign (sometimes they forgot he wasn’t human, although the ears did much to remind them). He’d been talking about the latest mushroom sample for so long that they’d begun to dip back into sleep, lulled by the unfamiliar comfort and warmth. 
“Hey,” he snipped. It lacked the typical edge. “I was talking to you.”
“I know,” they murmured, blinking up at him. “I was listening, I promise.”
He just stared. The angle was a little awkward, but he didn’t move–just held their face, craning it upward to his, a push and pull neither of them had accounted for when they wrapped together. 
Tighnari sighed. It feathered across their mouth. “I want to kiss you.”
From anyone else, that declaration might’ve woken them up–lightning to a system, anxiety injected into the bloodstream. But not for him. For Tighnari, it was so easy, so intuitive, so gentle that it hardly merited nerves. 
So they just blinked, boneless and comfortable, and wrapped an arm around his neck. “I’d like that.”
He hummed. And they both had to twist a little uncomfortably (they released a tiny displeased noise and he laughed, half-heartedly scolding “Come on now, you have to work for it”), and then–
It was like summer rain. Or a rush of cool breeze off a warm ocean front. Or lying by a fire on a cold night. Or drifting under the surface of a Liyuen river, relishing the muted sunlight and silence. 
They parted. He smiled; they smiled; Tighnari wrapped an arm under their knees and hefted them into a different position, one better suited to kissing them once more–twice more–three more times. His fingers traced their earlobe and they shivered. 
“You know,” he chuckled, tugging on it again, “For as often as I get bothered about my ears, I’ve never touched one of yours.”
They slung an arm around him, tracing his shoulderblades. “How is it?”
“Weird. I guess I didn’t expect it to be so… fleshy.”
“Ugh. Tighnari, could you have picked a worse word?”
He tilted back his head and laughed. That, too, vanished into the gentle quiet, a temporal sound in an ever-moving world. The hitch of sheer joy and tender affection in their chest remained. “But I’m not wrong.”
“I guess not. Ugh.”
And as easily as they’d fallen in together that first time, they found themselves in much the same place now. A light rain began to patter on their tent. Mawtiyima Forest was waking up alongside them. Bird call echoed faintly through the valley. The seasons were slowly turning, mornings wetter and mammals less active. In Mondstadt the leaves were probably turning red. Tighnari’s tail wrapped snugly around their waist. 
“If you want me to wake up,” they murmured, “that’s not helping. You’re making me even more comfortable.”
He chuckled. “I’m willing to give you another thirty minutes. Go back to sleep.”
The quiet eventually worked its gentle magic. Consciousness slipped out of their fingers like river water. And in the delicate, fragile, temporary haze of the Now, here, with Tighnari, they felt him press his mouth into the crown of their head and whisper, “Do you have any idea how deeply I adore you?”
Yes , they wanted to say, and couldn’t. Yes, I do. I feel the same way. 
No one else could make the world as quiet as he could.

Could I request JK and of course the tiger lily? Maybe with some kind of au like aliens or some sort of magic or whatever else suits your fancy? You're really good at unique AUs so please feel free to just go wild :]
Tiger Lily - Passionate Pride
Tumblr media
Jungkook x Reader
Word Count: 700+
Genre: Alien AU. Fluffy, a tiny little bit of angst. Some humor 🤡
Summary: Never in your life did you think a giant alien man would ask you to run away with him.
Notes: I love a good alien AU tbh, they’re a little hard to come by so I hope this tickled your fancy anon. Also, you’re the sweetest 🌸~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~“Just to the odd human grocery store? Come on, you can’t tell me you don’t want more of that stuff you call pie. I can even carry you if you’re too tired, I’m much stronger than any human and the size of your ankles worry me.” The alien spreads out across your couch, knees hitting either side of it as it noticeably starts to sink into itself. Letting out a sigh, you shake your head for what must be the hundredth time today, plopping yourself onto the chair across from him.
“I still don’t know why I’m harboring a criminal that’s so full of himself… You know we can’t just go out in public like it’s the most normal thing right now, I’m sorry. Maybe when you’re not a wanted man.” Jungkook blinks owlishly, his bright purple eyes shining in the otherwise dim room. It’s his fault you need to keep your curtains shut. As funny as it is to see the giant man pout, you stand your ground and remain silent until he whines.
“Why not? No one would even notice… Well, they might once they see how charming I am, but that’s beside the point. Many people here on earth consider the people of Terazi as ‘ethereal’ I’ve read.” This makes you scoff, another insinuation of how attractive he thinks he is… He is of course, but you don’t need to feed into his ego at all; the way he’s talked about himself in the past few weeks has been enough to tell you that.
“Jungkook, you’re seven feet tall, your eyes glow, your hair is lilac, and you have distinctive markings all over your body. I think someone might notice the giant Terazial man walking down the street next to me and get a little suspicious.” Getting out of your seat, you make your way over to the kitchen to try and figure out something for dinner. If there’s one think you’ve learned about Jungkook, it’s that he can eat and eat and eat. The Terazial springs up and follows you, practically towering overhead as he hovers.
“So you’ve taken notice of my superior physical qualities? You like them?” It’s not quite a whisper but it’s quiet, his voice delicate as he asks. Not thinking too much of it, you open another cupboard and glance at the contents. Peanut butter and spam isn’t going to get you very far…
Turning to face him, you blink at his chest and then crane your head upward. He looks smug, thin lips pulled into a bunny grin as his nose slightly scrunches (something he didn’t understand in the slightest when you first mentioned it). You poke his chest once, the firmness of the muscle still slightly surprising.
“Yes? It’s kind of hard not too when you stick out like a sore thumb. I know there are other aliens on earth but still.” There are many species of aliens on earth now; not just humans. And most can get away with walking around freely, but then again, most didn’t accidentally blow up a portion of a shopping mall.
“You know… There’s a lot more out there. A lot more to see beyond earth. If you were to leave with me, I’d take care of you and we would thrive. I don’t understand human customs very well but-” Leave with him? As in leave earth and potentially never come back? He’s told you stories about his travels, how he’s been all over the galaxy. It’s a romantic idea, and yet-
“I-what-Jungkook-“ He continues on, flailing his arms around as you stare at him with wide eyes. He’s so excited that he doesn’t even realize you’re trying to get a word in.
“I think it would be fun! You’d get to meet my crew! I know they’ve been looking for me, and when I leave, I want to take you with. Just say the word _____.” That’s… A lot. A lot to think about, a lot to process. Would you really be missing much here on earth…? Taking a deep breath, you let the cupboard bang shut and walk past him toward the door. You need time to think.
“… Let’s go to the store. Don’t forget your hat and sunglasses, if you get arrested I’m not bailing you out.”

❝eddie, my love❞
Tumblr media
plot: there’s a song with his name in it and you listen to it under the moon. you won’t mind if he joins you, right? pairing: eddie munson x gn!reader. cw: fluff, established relationship. words: 1.1k.
a/n: can you guess what I was looking at while writing this tonight
Tumblr media
Eddie kinda gets why people think he’s uncouth. When he’s hauling himself up and over your backyard fence, experienced enough to know how not to alert your neighbors, he wonders what guys like Jason Carver are good at. Throwing balls full of air with heads even fuller, he thinks, and then immediately puts Jason Carver out of his mind at the sight of you.
It was a testament to how well he knew you that he found you exactly where he expected to. Your parents’ backyard was a sweet oasis away from the mundanity of Hawkins, a little slice of heaven that Eddie wasn’t used to. Flowers and stepping stones and heavy trees older than him hanging low to the ground and there you are in the midst of it, curled up on a blanket in the grass with your neck craned up to the night sky.
It was a full moon tonight. A bright one. “It’s a supermoon. When the moon is closest to the earth,” you’d told him a week ago, and though he rarely remembers to keep track of dates and times, he remembered penciling it into his uncle’s calendar on the fridge just in case.
He would’ve come to you anyway, but the moon gives him a good excuse.
You’ve got your headphones on and he can faintly hear a piano melody coming from your walkman. You don’t become aware that he’s there until he crouches behind you and pulls the headphones off, nearly sending you into orbit with the moon itself, “M’love.” He greets, simply.
You, on the other hand, swear like a sailor, “Jesus fucking Christ, Munson! I could’ve died from a heart attack!” Eddie snickers, and then when you shove him back on his unsteady perch sending him falling into the grass, he full on belly laughs. It’s not long before your anger wears off and you join him in the grass, smiling behind your hand. “If you keep jumping my fence, my dad’s gonna notice.”
“Bullshit. I’ve sneaked into your room plenty of times and he’s never noticed,” You groan at Eddie’s confidence, scandalized, “old man should be lucky I’m not some ruffian coming to steal you away or he’d be woefully unprepared.”
“Oh, are you not?”
A spark of mischief lights Eddie’s eyes. Or maybe it’s the moonlight. He reaches a hand out to cup the back of your neck, cool rings battling against the summer heat on your skin. You must’ve been out here since sunset. “Well, you won’t take me up on that road trip I keep talking about. I’m running out of options that don’t involve blackmail.” 
“We just graduated, Eddie.”
Eddie rolls his eyes as though he hadn’t been counting down to the day so that he could take you far away from this shitty town. He had so many plans. He’d fix up the van so it could fit a mattress in the back and then the two of you could travel wherever you like. LA was only 2,000 miles away. 
In reality, he hadn’t the money or the time. As free as he’d like to be, he was in no shape for that grand road trip, though it didn’t stop him from daydreaming. Even if it wasn’t LA but a city two hours away, or even if you didn’t go further than the cornfields, he’d make it work somehow. In every possible way, you were always there in the dream. 
“I could take you to see a million night skies. A billion.”
“There’s only one and I can see it just fine from here.”
Well, you had him there. You flipped onto your side and cuddled against him, hand resting on his chest to play with his guitar pick, giving you both a full view of the bright moon overhead. Eddie had never been particularly moved by nature the way you were—your gushing over a constant, never changing fact of life had puzzled him at first. The moon got this full every month, got this white and close every few months, and yet you looked at it with such unabashed awe. Eddie felt like you were looking into some hidden galaxy far, far, away, enthralled by the same moon he barely noticed every night.
But when you looked at it like that, he couldn’t help seeing it differently.
A few minutes pass by before Eddie makes out the noise coming from your headphones now resting around your neck. “Is that… is that my name?”
Your hand at his chest clenches a little around the pick, snuggling your face a further away from his line of sight, “Maybe.”
The lyrics are soft over the sound of cicadas and sprinklers. His name—or rather, his nickname—is sung in a falsetto, suffixed by the endearment “my love” playing over a dreamy arrangement. The song is short but repeats, and Eddie begins to feel something shift in him at the thought that he’d found you, staring lovingly up at the moon, listening to a song with his name over and over. 
Perhaps it was a coincidence. “You just say it all the time, it’s kinda funny,” you mumble, glancing up at him beneath your lashes like you’d been caught scribbling your name next to “Munson” in your diary, “‘my love’. It fits perfectly.”
Eddie’s breath is hard to catch, “Do you… think of me every time you hear it?”
You nod, eyes casting downward to watch his chest rise and fall with every lovesick breath. 
Eddie’s eyes trail back up to the moon. It’s still big and almost hard to look at on a night like tonight, reflecting the sun at him, but it’s a little easier to see why you find it so beautiful. Eddie brings his hand up to your shoulder and brings you closer, never close enough, but as close as your human bodies allow. “I guess one moon is plenty for you. You’d probably cream your pants if you had a million of these things.”
“I would not.”
“Yeah, you would,” Eddie almost cackles, enjoying the way you smack his chest to try and keep him quiet, “you’d leave me for the moon.”
“I’m seriously considering it.”
“Bullshit.” And just for good measure, Eddie flips over until he’s blocking said moon from your sight, straddling you against the green grass. His hair trickles down like a rain shower and tickles your cheeks until he leans down and places a heavy kiss to your lips, intent to stake his claim against the wretched rock in the sky. You kiss him back even as you laugh in between your mouths. 
“I’ll write you a song.” Eddie whispers breathlessly against your mouth, lips turned up into a dumb grin.
He loves the way your sweet eyes widen at that. “You’ll what?”
“I’ll write you a song. So we’re even.” He says, as if your romanticism is a competition or an affront to his character, a declaration that you were more enamored with him than he you. He would prove you wrong yet. He would like to keep having reasons to prove you wrong for a long time. “A song with your name in it.”

In the early hours of March 22, Russian forces launched what Ukraine’s energy minister called the “largest attack” on Ukrainian infrastructure in recent times. Numerous critical infrastructure facilities across the country, including the Dnipro Dam, have been hit, and many places are without power or are under rolling blackouts to reduce demand on damaged systems. Additionally, the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant was briefly disconnected from the grid during the strikes, posing a risk of shutdown. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky called the attack a direct “war against ordinary people’s lives.”
Air raid sirens sounded throughout Ukraine early Friday as the Russian military launched massive missile strikes across the country. Ukrainian Energy Minister Herman Halushchenko called the strikes “the most extensive attack on Ukrainian energy infrastructure in recent times,” saying they were aimed at “causing a large-scale breakdown of the nation’s energy system.” Volodymyr Kudrytskyi, the head of Ukraine’s high-voltage transmission operator Ukrenergo, concurred, saying the attack was the largest of its kind since the start of the full-scale war.
According to Halushchenko, power generation facilities as well as transmission and distribution systems in various regions were hit and damaged. Many places are without power.
The city of Kharkiv has been left almost entirely without electricity or running water following Russian strikes on over 15 energy infrastructure targets in the area, reported Governor Oleh Syniehubov.
Russia launched 12 missiles on Zaporizhzhia, said regional Governor Ivan Fedorov. According to preliminary information, at least one person was killed and eight people were injured. Fedorov later reported that two more people are missing. At least seven residential buildings in the area were destroyed and 35 were damaged.
The Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plant, currently under Russian control, was also on the verge of shutdown. During the attack, the overhead power line connecting the occupied plant to Ukraine’s power grid was disconnected.
Drone and missile strikes also damaged critical infrastructure in Kryvyi Rih, said Mayor Oleksandr Vilkul. The city is implementing emergency shutdown schedules and hospitals and other critical facilities are switching to generator power where possible.
Pro-Kremlin Telegram channels reported a strike on the Dnipro Dam, a hydroelectric power plant. Petro Andryushchenko, an aide to Mariupol’s legitimate mayor, said a Russian missile hit a trolley traveling along the dam. According to him, the vehicle was filled with civilians who were commuting to work.
The Ukrainian energy company Ukrhydroenergo wrote that a fire broke out at the station but that the situation is under control and there is “no threat of breach.”
Ukrhydroenergo’s CEO, Ihor Syrota, told Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty that the Russian military hit the station’s Hydroelectric Power Plant 1 and Hydroelectric Power Plant 2 (HPP-1 and HPP-2). According to him, HPP-2 was severely damaged and may be beyond repair. One of the station’s supports was also hit, and crane beams were broken. “We’ll have to completely restore the machine room and electrical equipment,” Syrota said. “We’ll assess the consequences within the day and take stock of what happened.”
Authorities in Ukraine’s Sumy region have introduced a schedule of emergency blackouts to cope with damage from strikes on energy infrastructure. Russia’s attacks also reportedly damaged critical energy infrastructure in Ukraine’s Vinnytsia, Lviv, Ivano-Frankivsk, Mykolaiv, and Odesa regions.
Khmelnytskyi Mayor Oleksandr Symchyshyn wrote that there were dead and wounded after Russian strikes hit infrastructure facilities and homes in the city. Ukraine’s Internal Affairs Ministry confirmed the deaths of two people in Khmelnytskyi.
Missile debris fell on homes in Ukraine’s Poltava region, and rolling blackouts have been implemented in the area. Local authorities have also introduced blackouts in the Kirovohrad region to reduce the strain on the energy grid.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said that Russia launched over 60 drones and around 90 missiles in the attack. Commenting on the strikes, Zelensky wrote that they were clear evidence of Russia’s intent to harm Ukrainian civilians:
Russia is waging war against ordinary people’s lives. […] Russian missiles don’t have delays like aid packages to our nation do. Shahed [drones] have no indecision like some politicians. It’s important to understand the cost of delays and postponed decisions. Patriot systems should be protecting Kharkiv and Zaporizhzhia; we need air defense systems to protect people, infrastructure, homes, and dams. Our partners know exactly what’s needed. They can certainly provide support. These decisions are necessary. Life must be protected from these Moscow barbarians.

💙Tie Your Heartstring Up Tight
By:athena_crikey
Summary:
Lan Wangji could not hope to find any other person like this, at least not so far from their home. But wu speak to birds and beasts across the realm. He may be known to them. He may be recognized, somewhere. The ravens and the hawks hear the name and cry it to the skies; the mouse and the fox both carry it with them through snow-washed fields. Below ground the beetles gnaw it into roots and bark. Wei Ying. Wei Wuxian.
OR: Tasked with finding the Yunmeng Jiang's missing wu, a young man called Wei Wuxian, Lan Wangji recruits a familiar and travels across the land in search of him. His familiar, a black hare with a little too much personality, seems to have his own secrets.
Chapter:11/11
Words:54,106
Status:completed
There is no direct moonlight left, the rice paper shade entirely grey. Still though, the room is lit by faint diffuse starlight. By its gentle glow Lan Wangji turns his head to see a tall man seated at the table, his dark hair pulled wholly into a simple tie and tumbling down his back in gleaming waves, his clothes jet black. He is drinking from one of the wine jars gifted to Lan Wangji by the tea house, the soft trickle of liquid a rippling sound in this almost-dream. It fits seamlessly into the scene, like seafoam atop whispering waves. The man turns a little as he drinks it, the line of his cheek high, his lips shining as they’re wetted from the liquor. Part of Lan Wangji wants to wake up, wants to shed the skin of this dream and pitch into the cold crispness of reality so he can see this stranger’s face, so he can know the man who haunts his nights. But a larger part of him is comfortable, cozy where he lies, pleased to let the dream roll on. There is no danger, he is sure of that. No unfamiliar mind, hun or po here with him. There is no need to wake from this strange dream. He is weary from the hunt, from the long lingering echo of the crane’s song. He closes hie eyes, and slips back into sleep.
~~
Lan Wangji regrets, in all that he heard of the south – of its muddy rice fields and sticky summers, of its peasant farmers and its lack of education – that somehow he never heard anything of Wei Ying.
~~~
He looks back over his shoulder at the empty, derelict shrine. He has given everything to do right by you, Lan Wangji thinks. This is how you repay him? Lan Zhan. Lan Wangji looks over to where Wei Ying is huddled on the ground, on his hands and knees, awaiting death. He looks up, raises his head just enough for Lan Wangji to see the curve of his cheek, the bright glint of his eye. Thank you. And – I’m sorry. Lan Wangji tastes the tears in his throat, thick and hot and salty. Before him, Wen Zhuliu appears, reaches down to grab his arm and drag it upwards, his heartstring glinting. Lan Wangji just stares at him, empty, beyond horror for his own fate. There is no punishment for this evil, no retribution waiting. The world he served with his all has betrayed him, and he can no longer care. No, says a low voice, little more than a growl in the back of his mind. There is always punishment for true evil. There is always retribution for desecration. Lan Wangji blinks. Overhead, the moon goes dark. A cloud, perhaps. But it is swirling, dark, glinting, gleaming like a lake carp shining in the morning sun. One figure, two figures, intertwined, shifting. From overhead two enormous shapes descend. They braid together, their bodies flashing as the moonlight reappears. One black, one white. Dragons. Bearded, scaled, their claws flinty and their horns shining like lightning.

Can I ask for some yandere Corpsecrow obsessing over and kidnapping the reader? And please make him as handsy and possessive as possible~
Tumblr media
How long with his kindness last?
Yandere! Corpsecrow x Reader
Note: Aghhgh I know two corpsescrow stories in a row I just like these ideas
Warnings: He gets a bit touchy at times, mentions of human experimentation, kidnapping, obsessive behavior.
⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯ ⋆✦⋆ ⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯⎯
Nothing but pure terror ran through your veins.
You had woke up tied up to some kind of gurney, like how they use in like asylums and shit. The room you were in was dimly illuminated, you had to squint to see the dark corners, or we’ll, the ones visible to your limited vision.
A large blaring beam shone down from the overhead hanging light, it felt like it was burning your eyes. The sheer comparison to how it illuminated you and the small circles around you, but the bright gleam from the light didn’t reach the walls.
You became increasingly worried as you glanced down at the rolling table that was next to you. Different medical devices and test tubes filled with liquids ranging from a pale orange, almost vomit green, and a deep, dark blood red. The tools were sparkly clean, but were sitting next to a bloody towel, as if they had been cleaned recently. Tears began to well up in your eyes, a sob choked out of you as you realized you weren’t going to make it out alive, at the little chance you do, you wouldn’t leave the same person, you wouldn’t leave a sane person.
The sound of mice crawling around you grossed you out, scrunching your nose as you tried to wiggle away from the creatures surrounding your current position. The seemingly endless echoing of dripping water was a sound that filled your mind, how it dripped and dripped.
You glanced down at your body, you had been stripped down to your tank top, shorts, and (hopefully) your undergarments. Your clothes were laying on a shelf under the medical table, neatly folded.
But, your body hadn’t been touched, no scratch or bruise and been made on your body, despite your kidnapping. Whoever did this must’ve did it while you were sleeping, which would explain your dizziness and fatigue. But your body shows no signs of soreness, no pains or tightness linked to uncomfortable travel. Apart from the dizziness and the deep fear eating away at you, you felt quite nice.
The room smelt of something rotten, like overdue meat that’s been left out in the beaming sun. It burnt your nose and made you gag a little, if you weren’t disgusted at the idea of throwing up on yourself and not being able to clean it up, you might’ve vomited just to get the nauseating feeling out of the pit in your stomach that was already overwhelmed with anxiety.
A mix of the cold air and your lack of layers of clothes made you feel like you were freezing. Your eyes darted towards the ceiling, the large hole in the roof just added onto it, along with the rain water that dripped into the room.
Your eyes began to grow heavy as the fatigue continued to just get worse and worse, your head hunt, a you looked down at the floor in front of your, dark red stained the floor below you, alluding you to your inevitable demise. More and more tears ran down your cheeks, at first they were hot, but as the air cooled them down it just left your cheeks wet and your face cold. But the loud squeaky opening of the door caused you to shoot up.
Your body went stiff, your body trembled as you heard heavy steps approaching you from behind. Trying desperately to silences yourself, you tried to sniffle as quietly as possible, trying to not make it obvious you were terrified. The person approached you from your right, stopping right behind you. You could hear their loud, wheezing breaths. You felt their hand reach up to your arm, trailing their fingers down your skin, their breath stopping, as if breathless just from touching you. They came around you to reveal-
Holy shit. The Jonathan Crane, the fucking scarecrow had unveiled himself.
You in-took shaky, sharp inhale. Eyes blowed wide and filled with hot tears. His face was almost emotionless, yet his eyes were soft.
“Good day my dear,” he spoke, a soft, smooth tone to his voice, yet a leering level of threat searing from his words.
You leaned back as far as you could get, fully pressed up against the gurney, desperately tried to control your breathing, to not show fear. But the man in front of you knew all of the ins and outs of fear, what someone experienced looks like, how to intensify the feeling, the hot tears down your face betrayed you as it showed your weakness front and center.
He didn’t respond, he just looked up and down your body, making small marks on the clipboard he carried in, scribbling a few notes off to the side of his previous writings. He leaned forward, brushing his hand over your shoulder, you couldn’t tell a moment ago, but it was wrapped up, a bloody bandage was lightly tied around your shoulder.
His face wasn’t masked like it usually was, so you could see his face, clearer than say under the bright light above the both of you. His eyes were soft grey, not showing any emotion as he checked your wounded shoulder.
He placed his clipboard down next to the tools, rummaging his hand through the various medical scalpels and such. His hand brushed over one, picking up a pair of scissors, softly grabbing new bandages and medical tape. Approaching you again, he grabbed your opposite shoulder pulling you to lean forward, you froze as he silently cut your bandages removing them, you looked down at your wound, gasping as you saw the deep cut in your skin.
“Unfortunately, you were dropped on your way here, nothing bad, I examined it myself,” his voice was monotone as he reassured you he didn’t harm you himself.
“Why am I here..?” You asked softly, your voice came out as a choke as you could barely hear yourself while talking. He looked up at you, silently going back to wrapping you up.
“October 22nd of last year,” he said, monotonously. “That’s when I first saw you..” the first sign of emotion revealed on his face, a soft smile was placed on his face as he reveled in the memories.
“What.. when you first.. saw me?” Your voice was shaky, and scared, extremely confused. He chuckled.
“That’s so interesting,” he laughed, “The day my life changed because of you was just another day to you, isn’t it fascinating?” He cocked his head to the side, reaching up to cup your face. His other hand danced up and down your sides, thumb rubbing on your skin, his rough hands running over your soft skin of your stomach.
“Well, why was that day so.. important to you,” you spoke like you were walking on eggshells, trying not to anger him and ask the wrong question.
“That was the first day we’ve meet, you were at a Halloween party, I was there too,” he asked, tapping your skin instead of rubbing it now, reaching his other hand down to simultaneously tap and rub your other side. “You were dressed up, an angel,” he mumbled, “Your glorious dress, mixed with your wings, and your beautiful face caught my eye,” he whispered, a shiver running down your spine, “Can’t believe your right in front of me again, it’s been so long, way too long,”
“Oh, I remember that day,” whispering quietly, he still picked up on it. “I remember I made that dress myself, I might still have it in my closet,” you thought out loud.
“I’m glad you remember,” he says, “I choose to remember it every single day,” he tilted his head back, the blinding light above you two illuminated his features. If he wasn’t a, you know, career criminal that kidnapped you, you would think he would be quite a good looking guy. His breathing was quiet, but deep, before snapping his head back to you.
“Ever since that day I’ve been following you, keeping you safe,” he cooed, running his knuckles down your cheek as he brushed a piece of your hair out of your face, tucking it back since you couldn’t with your arms tied up.
He reached down, unbuckling your restraints, your weak body collapsed without that holding you up, the only thing you could do it shoot your arms up to grab him for support, he quickly reciprocated your embrace, pulling you in to hold you, he grabbed a chair your behind the side table. You hadn’t been able to see it from the angle you were sitting at. He sat down, sitting you in his lap as you rested your head on his shoulders. Your eyes were heavy, your body weak, your head was spinning.
You knew you couldn’t trust him, he was a name criminal, everyone knows who he is, how dangerous he is, how he could turn on you at any moment and inject you with chemicals that would drive your mind insane, but all he did was lie swayed you back and forth, a small smile relishing on his face.
Why has he been doing this? Does he have a reason to fake such a deep obsession with you that he would stalk you, know exact dates of when you met and stuff? I mean, he hadn’t hurt you, even the accidental cut was wrapped up neatly to keep you comfortable and safe.
He pressed a kiss to the crown of your head, resting his lips there afterwards without kissing. Just, being with you, was good enough to him. You needed to stay on his good side, but also, would that be so hard? He was quite nice to you, gentle and sweet, he also just wasn’t that bad looking of a man, he was very pretty, but that aside. How long would his kindness last?

writing suggest: grimm and the knight(/the lord of shades) chatting about places they've travelled~
Every time you ask me to write these two together, I feel like I can hear @aewrie making a little delighted noise. The psychic transmission is strong.
(But I like writing their interactions, I think they are fun.)
I am enjoying the attempts of half of these asks to get me to write fluff. You might be the one who succeeded. Is this fluff? Does it count?
storyteller || AO3
His companion does not make words. Whether that be a limitation of the design of the vessels or simply its choice, he is unsure: it communicates fine, however, on the rare occasions when it chooses to.
Grimm hopes this will be one of those times.
“The wind is cold up there,” he tells it, gesturing vaguely to the east. “Where we came from. But it is not as cold as the kingdom we last visited. Would you like to know more about it?” 
He is draped across the back of the bench. The elderly bug that often lingers nearby has retreated to the safety of the general store and is casting him looks that are distinctly, undeniably hostile: he does not like the troupe’s presence in his town and is very convinced they are of a sinister make.
Perhaps he is not entirely wrong – but he is not completely correct either.
Grimm sees no need to alter his perceptions. It is rare for him to come out of the tents and mingle, but his summoner is a worthwhile source of interest – especially when it is yet nursing injuries.
Its mask is cracked and it has not healed it (although he knows that they can). He suspects that extending the soul to do so is not something it is interested in when it can just as easily rest in the comfort of the sleepy little town.
It looks up at him, its head craning back as if to meet his gaze, and he drums his claws melodiously on the back of the bench.
He takes the movement as indication of interest.
“The last one was frozen solid. The ground was slippery to walk on and the Steeds… well, did you know that they slip? We found this out quite unpleasantly. It is difficult for them to gain traction on ice.”
It stares openly. There is something on its face, he realises belatedly, and he reaches down to remove it: a shorn piece of some kind of plant leaf stuck to the hard white shell. It leaves behind a smudge of green stain that makes it seem all the more like the child its form is often mistaken for.
He makes no such mistake. There is wisdom in those eyes. There is also something a little wild. He is reminded of the black clouds that billow overhead and the smell of the air before coming rainfall. He is, in the same moment, also reminded that it is better to be indoors before the water starts to descend.
But he has ever been a reckless creature, so it is in his nature to ignore self-preservation.
Besides. He likes its company. Small and unassuming but with a will that could overcome any obstacle. It is an admirable trait.
He hopes the child adopts it.
“Have you ever seen snow fall heavily enough to collect upon the ground?” he asks it and to his surprise, it nods.
His mind is filled, then, with an image of the sprawling desert wastes: barren, lifeless dunes and great wooden structures that stand as testament to time. The image shifts to chilly winds and the blowing snow, positively howling, and then snow piled up thick enough to be impossible to navigate.
Along with the images is a distinct feeling of frustration. It does not like the cold and it does not like the snow. These things it finds inconvenient to try and work around. It does not enjoy anything getting in its way.
He is amused by how cranky it is. That he (a spirit of flame) should find snow more entertaining than it (a creature of the cold and fathomless dark) is an irony not lost on him as well. 
Perhaps it is evidence of magnetism.
“It melts in my presence,” he tells it. “Turns to slushy water and mixes with the dirt; it stains black and brown and becomes very messy.”
It looks down and then lifts its hands in front of its face. He wonders if it is trying to picture what he is describing. 
“I thought to try skating across a frozen pond in the last kingdom. The bugs do it, and it looked to be entertaining. I was young, you see, and I thought… when would I ever get a chance like that again? And so I slid out onto the ice. I would dance as the others did. They made it look easy. I have a confession.”
He leans down, then he whispers, “It is not easy.”
It turns its head to the side. He thinks it is probably trying to picture what he is telling it. Unfortunately, while it can share its memories with him to some degree, the same is not true in reverse. He does not possess that skill, that strange form of communication. He is bound to the mercy of words, as helpful and hindering as they can sometimes be. 
“It is especially not easy,” he continues, “when the ice starts melting underneath you.”
Its shoulders shake. It is laughing at him. It has no voice with which to do so, but he knows the gesture just the same and that is the response that he was trying to elicit with his story. After all, are bedtime tales not ideal to lighten one’s mood before sleeping?
He circles around the bench and then settles on one knee before it. The vessel follows him with its eyes and he turns his head before offering it a smile. 
“I managed a few loops, trailing water and ice behind me, and then, in an act of enviable grace, I managed to tumble onto my backside.”
Its shoulders shook again and he hummed.
“You will, perhaps, be pleased to know that the child takes after its father in some regards. Falling caught me off guard and I reacted appropriately… by summoning fire.”
It shares a mental picture with him again: of ice melting into water.
He nods to it and then smiles widely: all teeth, but harmless.
“That is exactly what happened, my friend. I went swimming. I did not know how to swim yet. Brumm had to come wade out and rescue me while I floundered about, half-frozen. To this day, he does not let me live it down.” 
The shaking becomes more and more prominent and he laughs with it; he gives sound to what it cannot. Perhaps he should be embarrassed by the tale but it is so long ago now that he hardly finds it worthwhile to dwell on. He is long past humiliation over the deeds committed when he was yet a child himself.
It is not as though it will tell his secrets.
It laughs and it laughs, soundless and shaking, its tiny body trembling under the force of it, and when the laughter subsides, it is still. It is possessed by an eerie, statue-like quality that tells him it has fallen asleep there on the bench.
Exhaustion takes its toll.
He stays with it, sitting on the ground in front of the sleeping figure. He has time to spare and there is something peaceful in the quiet.
And his presence greatly annoys the elderly bug staring nails into his back. He will take his wins where he can get them.

21. If you wrote a “missing scene” in Blood Sanation what would it be?
29. What songs would be (or are) on a playlist for Come Pull My Strings in general? Explain your choices if you want!
Bonus if you want/have time: 50. Answer any question of your choice, or talk about anything you want to talk about!
I'm going to disappoint the hell out of you and admit that I can't hear lyrics 90% of the time, so it's hard for to me to pick songs to relate to fic. I have severe audio processing issues, it takes me like twenty repetitions of a song to even realize the singer is saying words most of the time. And even then I don't understand correctly lol
To make up for that! I have a missing scene from Blood Sanation that I'll give you right now. It's Armand and Daniel returning home to NYC. It just didn't fit in the narrative so I cut it, but it's not a bad scene I think:
Armand rested heavy against Daniel’s shoulder, eyes on the screen embedded in the back of the seat in front of them. Daniel kept scrolling through the movies again and again in wonder. Beside them passengers pushed their way toward the back of the place, bags thudding into their overhead compartments. The flight attendant reached over Armand and slammed shut the compartment above them.
“The seats suck compare to the flights we used to take, but the little tvs are an improvement I guess,” Daniel said as he pushed a button on the menu and found the games.
“Have you not been on a plane since I last saw you?”
Daniel shrugged. “Yeah but I wasn’t really in the mood to play games. I think I stared out the window the whole time.” He put his arm around Armand’s shoulders and squeezed. “I didn’t have you there to hassle me and keep me entertained.”
Armand smiled. Funny how they could make light of that time now, if only to keep from dulling their mood.
Flying home commercial had been his idea.
Skipping the private jet and going to the airport like normal travelers had only seemed natural after reliving the early days of their relationship. True, the airplanes were different now. The seats even in first class were more narrow, and the lounges upstairs were gone. But now Armand could curl up against Daniel’s side freely and not worry about what anyone thought. He could nap against his chest the whole way home if he wanted.
“I’m kind of nervous about going back, to tell you the truth,” Daniel said suddenly.
The plane pulled back from the jetway. It shuddered as the pilot took it out of reverse, changed gears, and turned toward the runway for takeoff.
“What about?” Armand asked.
Surprising for Daniel to say this now, when he hadn’t seemed to worry the entire trip. Armand sat up, craned his neck awkwardly to look at his face without removing Daniel’s arm from his shoulders.
“It’ll just be different, not having you all to myself,” Daniel said. “And I’m not against you having your own relationships outside of what you have with me. But I can’t say I’m not nervous about how it’ll all work out.”
“I don’t think either of us can say how it’ll work out,” Armand said slowly. “We can only try our best. Especially if you’ll be living outside of Trinity Gate.”
“Right.”
The plane rumbled as the engines turned, gaining speed. It rolled forward slowly and then, with a great leap that jerked them back into their seats, roared down the runway and into the sky. Daniel always used to sweat at this part. He’d drink a glass of whiskey before boarding and then request another the moment they’d sat down to get him through the anxiety of take off. As an immortal all Armand could offer him was his hand.
Outside the window the lights of the city grew smaller and smaller. Daniel closed his eyes and laced their fingers, holding his hand tight.
“But just think, the nights I come to visit you we’ll be all alone together. I can get in bed with and sleep away the day, and when I go back home you can text me as much as you like,” Armand said to distract him. “I can send you all sorts of things now when we’re apart.”
Armand shifted closer. He leaned across the armrest to whisper into Daniel’s ear above the roar of the plane.
“I can send you photos. Videos. Louis loves to go to the symphony. I could slip away to the bathroom and send you all sorts of things and he would hardly be the wiser. Or would you like him to know?”
Daniel’s adam’s apple worked in his throat. Armand grinned.
“You want him to know. You like nice, proper Louis knowing that I’ve left my seat to send you photos of my cock.”
Daniel glanced over. “Jesus, Armand, we’re in public.”
“That’s never stopped you before. I remember what I used to do to you under the blankets on these planes when the lights were out. If I could still get in your mind I’d put the image there but- then again, I don’t have to, do I? You can imagine it quite well.”
“Yeah. Yeah, I remember,” Daniel said, voice low and rough.
While no one seemed to be paying attention Armand dropped his hand. Reached over and gave his groin a quick squeeze.
Daniel made a sound as if the breath had been punched out of him. The plane evened out and hit cruising altitude.
“Nice to know I still have such an effect on you,” Armand said and snuggled back up against his side. “Really though, Daniel, Louis will understand.”
Daniel dragged his hand over his face. He was so red under the harsh fluorescent lights in the plane. “I just don’t want anyone jealous or putting you in the middle and making you feel like you have to choose. Or making you feel like your whole job is running back and forth between guys and you never get time for yourself.”
“But I like spending time with each of you. And we can all spend time together, can’t we? Surely you and Louis can survive watching a movie in the same room with me.”
“Yeah, I mean more like- if you spend a couple nights with him and I’m missing you. Or the other way around. Does that sound silly and insecure?” Daniel asked.
Armand nestled into the warm space of Daniel’s underarm and bit back a smile. When Daniel glanced out the window he saw the reflection of his face in the plastic. His hand went still on his shoulder.
“What’s so funny? It is silly and insecure, isn’t it?” he asked.
Armand shook his head. “No. I was only thinking I haven’t had men openly jealous over me since I was a boy. The idea of you and Louis arguing over me is entertaining, that’s all,” he said. “It’ll be fine, really. If you need me all you ever have to do is ask. And besides, Louis may return to Auvergne with Lestat.”
Daniel’s hand resumed rubbing its slow circles into his arm. Armand closed his eyes. They were high enough in the sky there were no lights to look at now, only clouds and endless dark sky.
“And are you worried about that?” Daniel asked.
“Of course. But there’s nothing I can do about it, is there?”
The idea made his chest go tight, caused the lump to try to creep up and constrict his throat. But Daniel’s big hand on his arm helped to push it back down. Over the hum of the engines he could hear the slow beat of his heart and the rasp of his lungs. Armand tried to breathe with him, to exhale whenever Daniel did and keep his airway open.
Louis might leave. But Louis might also stay. Louis and Daniel might one day live with him, all three of them together with whoever else chose to remain at Trinity Gate.
Or perhaps he’d live with Daniel again, just the two of them. There was no way to know. But they were going home now, back to New York, where they could begin again and find out.
Daniel touched the computer screen again. He scrolled through the movies until he found a film with Meg Ryan, one they’d seen together shortly before they’d split. When Harry Met Sally. He felt for his headphones in his pocket and plugged them in, giving one of the earbuds to Armand.
Armand placed the thing in his ear, curled up at Daniel’s side and watched the opening credits roll.
“Daniel?”
“Yeah?”
Armand smirked. “Do you think if I ask the flight attendant for a blanket she’ll bring one?”
Daniel rolled his eyes. Reached up and pressed the call button. It lit up with a soft ding.
“I’m never flying commercial with you again.”
