Tumblr media
He’d been watching you all night.
Pip’s Bar was busy. Though it wasn’t your usual haunt, it was one of the more popular spots in Austin, and on a Saturday night it was absolutely teeming with people. Strangers lined the bar, drinking and talking and trying fruitlessly to chase down two overworked bar tenders. A mass of bodies gyrated and swayed in the middle of the room, moving to the fast rhythm of a bassline that shook the rickety old floorboards. You were lost in the midst of it, dancing alone and yet connected to the foreign bodies that crowded you from every angle, suffocating you until you were slick with sweat and sticky from spilt alcohol. Swallowed whole by the writhing, heaving pack of dancers, your every breath and movement synced with theirs.
And he’d been watching you, all night.
He’d arrived at Pip’s not long after you. And since then, he had hardly moved from the same spot across the room. He leant against the wall, one hand gripping a glass and the other propped on his hip. He looked bored, uninterested in everything happening around him, and yet every time you glanced his way those eyes were already burning a hole into your skin. The truth was that he’d never had much patience for the whole thing, but you trusted he enjoyed it just as much as you did. Knew he’d do whatever you asked him to, even if it included going to a bar and pretending you were strangers. Even when it meant him watching you dance all night, rubbing yourself against strangers, and pretending you didn’t know him until one of you finally broke.  
Your arms stretched high above your head, hips swaying from side to side as you muttered the lyrics of the song underneath your breath. Once again, you glanced back in his direction while you danced. You allowed your torso to sway with the movements of your hips, hands dropping to rest lacklustre by your sides. You offered him a quick smile, but his face hardly moved, body rigid. He lifted the glass to his mouth, playing coy, and you chuckled under your breath, closing your eyes and revelling in the heavy bass that vibrated through your body. When you opened them again he was gone, the wall where he’d once stood now devoid of his presence. You didn’t give it much thought, until suddenly a pair of hands were on your waist, pulling you back against a solid body. A gasp of soft surprise exhaled from your mouth, and you felt the hands squeeze gently. When you turned around, there was already a sly smile was painted across your lips.
The dim lighting in the bar did him no justice; casting too many shadows across his strong jawline, his straight aquiline nose, hiding the perfect shade of his dark pink lips.
He stared down at you with a simmering intensity as you pressed your chest against his. The room was hot, and sweat beaded along your hairline, but it didn’t stop you from dancing slowly against him, gliding your curves against his body, maintaining eye contact all the while.
A faded denim button up covered his chest, the thin material doing nothing to disguise the toned, strong body beneath it. The fabric was slightly coarse, and it was rough against the thin mesh of your shirt. You always loved waiting to see what he would wear, how he would dress up for you. Tonight’s shirt was new, something he’d bought specifically for the occasion, and you loved it. Your nipples hardened a little, and you smirked as he snaked an arm around your waist to press his palm to the spot in between your shoulder blades, holding you against him.
“What’s your name?” you asked over the music, noting the way his eyes drifted to your mouth when you spoke. God, he was so easy.
“Joel.” Those deep, brown eyes bore into your own, drinking in the details of your face as his hips moved slowly against yours. He was always antsy to get this part over and done with, but he played along for you.
“Are you single?” you asked, revelling in the way his mouth went to respond before his brain could catch up. The beginning of the word no formed on his lips, and you almost grinned at how loyal he was, even when you wanted him to lie.
“Yes,” he said.
“You’ve been watching me all night, Joel.”
You reached up to fix his collar where part of it had been turned up. He didn’t respond immediately, mulling his thoughts over in his head, contemplating what he thought you might want to hear.
“It’s okay,” you spoke again when you sensed he was overthinking it, allowing your hand to glide down his shoulder and over the firm muscles of his upper arm. “I liked it.”
“And your name?” he asked, almost shouting to be heard over the music. You smirked at the deep bellow of his voice; at the way it gave the pumping music a run for its money. The thick, Texan drawl of it always managed to spark a fire in your belly.
When you told him, he repeated your name slowly, as if it were foreign to him; rolling it around in his mouth, tasting out the syllables on his tongue. The hand on your back held strong, and you could almost feel the individual tips of his fingertips leaving indents in your skin.
A gyrating body jostled into you from the side suddenly, and you stumbled forward. Joel tightened his grip on you, keeping the both of you standing up right. You flashed him a grateful smile, and your eyes dipped to stare at his mouth. The urge to kiss him was strong, but you held yourself back, knowing the payoff would be worth it if you could just hold off a little longer.
You didn’t waste much time though. “What brings you to Pip’s? Y’here to meet someone?”  
A spark of desire flashed through his eyes, and his grip tightened inconceivably. Your body thrummed with excitement as you gained the upper hand so successfully, and so quickly. Joel cleared his throat, face relaxing back into a neutral expression.
“Didn’t want to come here at all,” he spoke plainly, glancing down to where your chests rubbed together. His eyes trailed over your torso, the mesh fabric of your shirt allowing him a full view of your breasts, clad in a thin lace bra. “Brother dragged me along.”
You hummed, almost grinning at the mention of Tommy, who would blush beet red if he knew what the two of you were doing at Pip’s. You opened your mouth to speak again, but he beat you to it.
“Did you?” he asked quickly. “Come here lookin’ for someone?”
You quirked an eyebrow and shook your head once. “No, I didn’t.” Bold faced lie.
His left hand rested on your hip, and he squeezed your waist once, holding your midriff solidly against his own. You could feel his heart beating, a rapid badoom badoom badoom that knocked rhythmically against your sternum. You draped an arm around the back of his neck, gripping the collar of his shirt.
“But maybe I could be persuaded,” you spoke slowly, testing the waters. “If you’re good.”
His eyes darkened a shade at your wording, and a soft exhale rushed out of his mouth, breezing against your face. His lips were a hairsbreadth away from touching yours, but he hesitated, eyes flickering back up to yours, as if asking for permission. Perfect.
You kissed him gently at first, slotting your lips against his and moving tentatively, exploring him as if it were the first time. His hold on you stiffened as he pressed back, running his tongue eagerly along the seam of your mouth. Your hand drifted from his collar to his hair and you gripped it softly, tugging on the wavy curls. Joel was taller than you, and yet he was crouching somewhat, so that your mouths would be level. Simplifying things for you; always so eager for the game to end. He struggled with it – the standing across the room, watching you, waiting for you to invite him over with a smile. But after an hour of dancing, you were willing to let him have it.
You parted your lips and allowed him to swipe his tongue greedily into your mouth. He tasted like whiskey and mint and soda water. It burnt your mouth, and inspired a dull ache in your abdomen. He gained confidence, kissing you harder, deeper, and so you sunk your teeth into his bottom lip. Not hard enough to draw blood, but enough to make him pause. A warning.
You pulled away. “Have you been drinking, Joel?”
His chest rose and fell quickly. Lips swollen and red. You could feel him pressing against your stomach, already half-hard from just a little kiss. Poor baby, so desperate.
“Only had two.” His voice was stilted. “I drove here.”
“Good,” you nodded, gripping his hand and leading him out of the throng of dancing bodies.
“Good?” Joel shouted back, eyebrows raised.
“Good that your car is here,” you clarified. “Means you can drive us back to my place.”
Tumblr media
Joel walked through your apartment like he’d never been there a day in his life, and you adored him for it.
He rested on the edge of your bed, nursing a cold beer that you’d swiped from the fridge for him. He stuck out in your bedroom, but you suppose he always had. The queen-sized bed looked like a double with him on it, his broad frame taking up most of the mattress. And the contrast between your floral wallpaper and his dark, masculine figure was so stark that you almost giggled as you watched him from across the room. His eyes felt heavy on you, following you wherever you moved, lest he miss a single thing. They raked over your figure, basking in the bare flesh you had on show, monitoring your hands as you removed your jewellery and discarded it. It caused a prickling heat to rise across your skin, and you liked it – the way he seemed so eager, so uncontained.
“What’re you doin’ all the way over there?” Joel asked. His fingers were long, wrapping around the entirety of the beer bottle, making it look miniscule in his grip.
You bent to take off your shoes. “I’m admiring you.”
His lips pursed, beer bottle pausing in the air halfway to his lips. When he spoke, his voice was deeper somehow. “Well, you should come over here.”
“Would you like that?” you straightened up, smiling sweetly.
“Yes,” he responded. His voice was measured, quiet. But you could tell he was frustrated by your relaxed demeanour. It was always the way it went. Joel was so impatient. He knew what was going to happen, knew what awaited him, and he couldn’t fucking stand the tension build up.
“Maybe if you’re good,” you winked, padding over to where he sat. You stood over him, knees brushing against knees.
“I can be good,” he spoke gruffly, depositing his beer bottle on the ground with a gentle clink.
“Is that so?” you asked softly, pulse quickening. He nodded, wiping his palms on his jeans before splaying them on the bed beside him. A slick heat had formed in your underwear, the near-ruined material sticking uncomfortably to your skin. “You’re gonna do what I want? Whatever I ask of you?”
You could see the way his jeans tightened over his crotch, cock clearly straining against the rough material at your words. He swallowed, nodding again. Slowly, so slow it was painful, you leant forward and pressed a chaste kiss to his lips. His scent filled your nostrils and you inhaled it deeply, sighing against his mouth as everything that was Joel Miller invaded your senses. Your tongue flicked against his mouth and then you were dragging it past his lips, over his teeth, rolling it against his own tongue. A warm, heavy hand gripped the waistband of your pants and long fingers fumbled with the button, but you pulled back, tutting as you shoved his hands away from you. He looked dejected, wet lips parted as he frowned up at you.
“Take your clothes off,” you ordered softly, and he grunted, but did as you asked. “And then lay on the bed.”
Making quick work of it, he stripped out of his shirt and jeans, tossing them haphazardly into the corner of the room. Finally, he tugged his briefs down, before laying back on the mattress.
Splayed on the bed, not a single inch of Joel Miller was left to the imagination. His body sunk into the soft blankets on the bed, and his cock stood at painful attention. It gave you pause, as he stared at you, and you stared at his cock. He was big—bigger than most guys you’d slept with in the past—and he knew it too. Had always been proud of the fact. His tip was ruddy and swollen, with a small pearl of pre-come resting on his slit, taunting you. A thick, pulsing vein travelled down the side of him. You thought about how he would taste, in that moment. How heavy he would be on your tongue, how your jaw would ache, and you’d struggle to breathe as his tip glided against the back of your throat. You were salivating just thinking about it.
“You like what you see?”
You simply took your clothes off in response. Taking your time, you dragged your shirt over your head before peeling your trousers off, underwear following it and landing in a pile on the floor until you stood naked as the day you were born. Joel watched closely, dark eyes monitoring your hands as you removed layer after layer. His gaze dipped to the spot between your thighs, and you saw his cock twitch.
You straddled his thighs, resting just above his knees and taking care not to make contact with his length. As soon as you settled above him his hands rested naturally on your waist, gripping and kneading the flesh beneath his palms. You decided to allow it, just for a moment, as your gaze travelled down his chest and the dark smattering of hair there, past his happy trail, all the way to where he wanted you the most.
His hips shifted on the mattress, cock bobbing against the soft flesh of his tummy and leaving a shiny smear where the tip brushed his skin.
“So handsome,” you traced your fingers over his stomach. “You’ve got such a pretty cock, Joel.”
“Yeah?” he grunted, eyes trained on your hands as they wandered toward his hips. The power you felt in moments like this were unmatched. With this broad, strong man laying beneath you, completely at your mercy, hanging on the precipice of your every word. Even if he struggled to admit it, even when it seemed like he was using all of his will power to let you have your fun, you both knew that you were in charge. And it was invigorating.
“Yes,” you implored, your heart warming at the way his chest seemed to puff with pride at your words.
Your fingertip traced alone his hipbone and he shivered at the featherlight touch, goosebumps breaking out across his skin. “So pretty and thick. I love it like that, you know? When it’s so big that it hurts at first. No matter how wet I am, there’s still that sting.” You dug your nails into the soft of his upper thigh to emphasise your point. He didn’t respond, eyes darkening as he watched you.
“So big that it fills me up until it’s like I can’t breathe, and I’m so cock drunk that I can’t focus on anything except you and how deep you are.” You placed your spare hand on your lower stomach, splaying your fingers. “When I can feel it here.”
Joel’s breathing had started to labour, chest rattling as heavy exhales drifted through parted lips. His hands dragged from your waist to the crease where your thigh met your hips, and his grip was bruising. You knew he loved it when you talked like that, knew it drove him crazy. And you couldn’t deny it made a fresh wave of heat roll through your stomach to think about him stretching you out just right.
“And I love this,” you continued softly, dragging your fingers from his thigh to graze the moustache that rested above his top lip. He smirked at that, tongue darting out to swipe at your fingers. Your stomach tensed at the feeling of the wet muscle touching you, pussy fluttering around nothing, devastatingly empty. 
Joel whispered your name against the palm of your hand. Smiling, you traced the tip of your index over his lips before pressing down, watching it slide easily into his mouth. He closed his lips around the digit immediately, grazing his teeth over it before sucking gently.
“Oh, you’ve got such a pretty mouth,” you said. “You gonna show me what you can do with it?”
He moaned around the digit, strong hands pulling your hips forward so you were edging your way up his torso.
“Mmh,” you hummed lowly, dragging your soaked finger from his mouth. You tapped it once against his left hand and gave him a sly smile. “But none of this, okay? I don’t want to feel your hands on me, not for a second. Do you understand?”
Joel’s brow furrowed, eyes dimming as he slowly pried his fingers away from your flesh, lowering his hands to rest in the sheets.
“So that’s how it’s gonna be?” he asked softly, tongue swiping out to wet his lower lip.
You nodded, using your knees to shift further up his chest until you were hovering just above his collarbones. Joel’s eyes darted between your thighs, and a soft sigh left his lips as he gazed at the way your lips had parted ever so slightly, giving him a glimpse of your glistening core. When you paused there for a moment too long, he looked back up to your face, expression almost begging you to movepleasejustmovejustalittlebitcloser.
So you put him out of his misery; rested your knees on either side of his head before lowering your aching cunt to meet his mouth.
Joel groaned in relief as his nose buried itself in your hair, tongue darting out to swipe between your soaked folds. You gasped in delight, rutting yourself against him in encouragement. The coarse hairs of his moustache scraped against your clit and you whined at the sensation, reaching up to rest your hands atop the headboard.
Joel licked a firm stripe up your core with the flat of his tongue, and your shoulders tensed as he set to work. He wasted no time setting a hard and fast pace, letting out messy groans as his tongue rubbed firm circles around your clit. You exhaled heavily, teeth biting down on your lower lip. He dragged his tongue to your entrance and dipped it inside you, so quickly that you flinched, before he was back to rubbing your clit, swiping the tip of his tongue back and forth, back and forth, back and forth. He was so overzealous, so hungry for it; exhaling hot air against you while he lathed sloppy kisses against your pussy.
“Hey,” you rasped, reaching down to run your fingers through his hair. Joel didn’t let up, simply flicking his tongue across your clit again. You jolted, tightening your grip in his hair and inching your hips away from his face. “Hey.”
His eyes flashed open, lips parting as his mouth tried to follow you when you pulled away.
“Wha—?” he couldn’t finish his sentence as you took his bottom lip between your thumb and index finger, squeezing it once.
“Slow down,” you said firmly. His cheeks flushed. “Moving that fast, a girl might start to think you’re trying to get it over with as quick as possible.”
Joel shook his head in a daze, mumbling a meagre apology against your fingers. Those big browns gazed up at you, wide and sad, reminiscent of a Labrador being told off for eating his dinner too fast. You pressed back down over his face, murmuring a gentle reminder for him to go slow.
He was soft then. Meticulous. Calculated. Every lick, every suck, every graze of teeth, was thought out and purposeful. You could feel more slick oozing out of you as his tongue massaged the flesh between your clit and your entrance.
“That’s it,” you praised breathlessly. “That’s perfect, doing—ohh—doing so well for me.”
Within minutes he had you on the edge, holding the headboard in a white-knuckle grip and grinding down against his mouth as breathy moans fell from your lips. It was reverent, the way he ate you out like it was his favourite thing to do in the world. And as liquid fire began to twist in your stomach, and your thighs burned with the intensity of holding yourself up above him, you could swear you felt him moving. Sparing a glance over your shoulder, you bit down on your lip to stifle the whimper that threatened to escape you at the sight of him.
The muscles of his long tanned legs were tense, the soft flesh of his hips flexing as he thrusted upward subconsciously, his leaking cock desperately seeking for contact but being rewarded with nothing but the humid air of your bedroom.  
You thought about how easy it would be to turn around. To lean down and take him in your mouth. To slide your lips over his head; to taste his salt while his tongue glided through your folds. Just the thought had you careening over the edge, body jerking as you gasped and sighed and grinded the swollen mess of yourself down against his face. Joel moaned gratefully, dark eyes flicking open to watch you as you came. You could feel him everywhere; his facial hair scraping against your twitching inner thighs as his nose bumped against your clit and his tongue lapped at your entrance, sucking and swallowing down everything you had to offer until you were gasping and prying yourself away.
On shaking legs, you made your way back down his body. As you moved, you rubbed your pussy against his torso, smearing a shimmering trail of your slick across his skin. Joel let out a brief, wrecked moan, stomach tensing as you passed over it and then lifted yourself up. His pink tongue darted out to swipe at his lips, savouring the glistening remnants of your taste. Resting on your knees, you hovered above him, smiling breathlessly.
“Fuck.” You admired the sight, pouting your lips out teasingly. “Made such a mess on you, I’m sorry, baby.”
“Jesus.” His voice was pained. “S’perfect.”  
“And it’s all for you,” you hummed, trailing a finger absentmindedly over his collarbone. “You looked so pretty like that. All messy haired and fucked out while I rode your face. So good for me, I’m tempted to let you go down on me all night.”
“I want to,” Joel exhaled heavily. A soft blush had risen across his chest, and he glowed under the shower of praise. “Think about it all the time.”
“Is that right?” you asked demurely.
“S’right,” he mumbled. “Think about the way you taste. About spreading you out and spending hours with my head between your thighs.”
The words were so hot they almost made you forget about the game you were playing.
You looked down, brain shifting gears and mouth going dry at the sight of your puffy lips hovering so beautifully close to the tip of his cock. He was so hard it looked painful. Stiff and pulsing, the vein down the side of his length visibly throbbed. Pre-come dripped down his length, pooling at the base of him.
“Oh, honey,” you cooed, and Joel looked down, groaning at the sight of you so close to where he was just aching. With a soft gasp, you noticed yourself begin to drip. “Look at that.”
Together, you watched a strand of your slick drip out of you, and land directly on the tip of his cock. Joel’s entire body jolted, and a pitiful moan escaped his mouth at the first stimulation he’d received all night. On instinct, his hands rushed forward and gripped your hips, stomach tensed as he thrusted upward into the air. You could see it in his eyes, the burning desire to grab you and pull you close, roll on top of you and just split you open. But this was your night, and you were the one calling the shots.
You tutted softly. “I said, hands off. Don’t make me tie them to the bed,” you clipped. He cursed, hands dropping immediately. “Mmh, you’ll do whatever I tell you to, won’t you?”
He whispered your name hoarsely, lips shifting below his wet moustache.
You ignored him, smiling at the way his cock twitched whenever you spoke. “So needy, so fucking desperate for me to touch you.”
“Yes,” he admit to it through gritted teeth. “God, fuckin’—please. Anything, I’ll do anything. Need to feel you, please baby, I need it.”
You hummed quietly, pondering as you gazed down at the sweaty mess of a man beneath you. “I’ll bet you say that to all the girls, huh handsome?”
His lips parted, harsh exhales rushing past chapped lips. “Only you,” he said firmly.
The corner of your mouth twitched up and you gave an approving nod, admiring the sincere gleam in his eye.
“Good boy,” you murmured. He groaned softly, eyes almost closing at the words. “But I’ve decided I don’t think I’ll use my mouth on you tonight. Or my hands, for that matter.”
Joel frowned, lips curling into a deep grimace as he twisted the sheets in his fists.
“Because,” you continued. “All I want your cock to feel, all night, is my cunt. Nothing else. Do you understand?” 
His jaw slackened and then he was nodding, muttering yeahokayyesyes.
“Yes what, Joel?”
“Please,” his voice cracked.
A wide grin spread easily across your face as you shuffled down the bed, settling your knees on either side of his waist.
“You such a tease,” he groused under his breath.
“Uh-huh,” you chuckled darkly. “And we both know you love it.” He stayed silent, knowing you were right, and watched as you splayed a hand across his stomach, using his body for leverage as you—finally—pressed your folds against his cock. Joel’s stomach tightened as you glided along his length, spreading your slick from his head to his base.
“Can I…?” he trailed off, eyes darting from your face and to where the two of you were touching. You nodded once, unable to look away as he reached down to grip himself, strong fingers wrapping around his length and squeezing once while he notched his tip at your entrance. The lingering sensitivity from your previous orgasm had you shuddering at the contact, walls contracting at the thought of him finally being inside of you.
You pushed his hand away swiftly, placing it back onto the bed. A harsh gasp ripped from your throat as you sunk down on him, gravity taking away any chance for your body to adjust to him slowly. The stretch stung a little, and your mouth hung open, spilling breathy whines.
“Jesus Christ,” you heard Joel exhale, voice ragged.  The muscle in his jaw moved underneath his skin, the muscles in his arms straining as he focused all of his willpower on not fucking touching you. 
“Fuck,” you whimpered. “Y-you’re so deep, stretching me out so good, just how I like it.” You tightened around him and a deep groan tumbled from Joel’s mouth, lids fluttering as his eyes all but rolled back into his head. You wiped the sweat off his forehead and cupped his cheek in your palm.
“Talk to me, honey,” you ran the pad of your thumb across his cheekbone. “Tell me how it feels.”
He grunted, heady brown eyes opening to peer up at you. His hips flexed beneath you and you bit your lip to stop from crying out at the way his cock shifted inside you. Slowly, knees painful from the pressure, you lifted almost entirely off him, before sinking back down. And then you did it again, and again, setting a deliberately unhurried pace and never once taking your eyes off his face.
The room already smelt like sex, a heady mixture of sweat and come, and a warm fog settled over your mind as the moment enveloped you.
You rotated your hips in a circle and delighted in the way he slammed the palm of his hand down onto the bed, teeth gnawing on his bottom lip. His eyes were half-shut, vision drifting to the ceiling as his head sunk into the pillow behind him. Within a second your hand tightened on his face, fingertips pressing gently into either side of his jaw, angling his face back towards you. His eyes flashed open, fully alert now.
“Look at me,” you whispered. “Wanna see those pretty eyes on me while I fuck you.”
He groaned at the words, pushing himself up into a seated position so your chests were almost touching. The new angle made you moan, and you loved the way the softest part of your stomachs brushed against each other every time you lowered your hips against his. Maintaining your hold on his face, you knocked your forehead lightly against his, nudging his nose with yours.
“Come on,” you urged, speeding up the rhythm just a little. “Tell me, baby, I—fuck—I wanna hear you. Do you feel good?”
“Yes,” he choked out. His voice was rough and wanton with need, and he wet his lips quickly upon hearing it. He almost looked shy, with his flushed cheeks and pouted swollen lips.
You hummed, hand drifting from his cheek to hover over his neck. Joel stiffened, nose pressing against your cheek as his head dropped forward doggedly. You let your fingertips graze the side of his neck, thumb brushing over his Adam’s apple.
“Is this what you want?” you murmured.
“Yes,” he repeated against your skin and you grinned, applying soft pressure on either side of his neck.
He moaned a low, tortured sound in response, and you leaned back to watch his mouth hang open as the sensation heightened everything he was feeling. With your free hand you stretched down to take one of his off the bed, and placed it firmly on the plush globe of your ass cheek. Joel’s eyes shot open in surprise, hand tightening instinctively.
He squeezed, gripping the flesh so tight it had you gasping, taking full advantage of the new freedom he’d been afforded. He used his hold to push you up and down faster, quickening the pace of your hips. And every time he bottomed out, he held you down on him for a second longer than you’d planned to allow, ensuring you felt every inch of him, every ridge and vein as he throbbed inside you, pressing against the deepest part of your core. You could already feel bruises forming where the tips of his calloused fingers squeezed you, but you couldn’t bring yourself to care.
Until you began to notice the signs, that is – the way his jaw slackened and his eyes glazed over. Relaxing your grip on his neck, you instead stroked your fingers along the skin there, feeling his thrumming pulse; listening to his hoarse laboured breaths; watching the way the rise and fall of his chest had rapidly increased. His cock twitched inside you.
“C’mon,” you whispered. “Tell me.”
“M’so fuckin’ close,” he garbled out mindlessly.
“Yeah?”
 “Y’feel so good,” he gasped, words slurring together. “Squeezin’ me so fuckin’ tight, s’like you were made f’me.”
“Mmm, I know,” you hummed, dropping your hand to press down over his stomach. The muscles contracted under your fingers, tensing over and over again as you moved along his cock. “But you can’t come yet, Joel.”
His eyes snapped to your face, lips silently forming your name.
“I mean it,” you warned in a low voice, hips never ceasing their movement. “I’m not done with you.”
“You can fuck me again,” he shook his head. His face all but crumpled, pupils blown so wide that his eyes were almost entirely black. “Can fuck me as many times as you want, do whatever you want with me.”
You grinned breathlessly. “I know.”
“Please,” his voice cracked, abdomen tensing as you sunk down on him with a particularly heavy thrust. A high-pitched moan left your lips as you grinded your clit against the coarse hair at his base. “M’so close, darlin’.”
“No, Joel,” you admonished quickly, tone clearly too condescending for his liking.
Anger flashed across his face. Sharp and fast, but impossible to miss.
“Fuck you,” he hissed. You clenched around him without meaning to, the fire in your abdomen burning hotter as you watched his patience wane.
Swallowing down a moan, you gave him a measured look, and stopped moving entirely, relaxing your thighs against his.
“That’s not very nice,” you ground out. Joel’s expression loosened, panic glinting in his eyes. “What ever happened to southern hospitality, huh sugar? Do you think you deserve anything if that’s how you’re going to talk to me?” Not waiting for a response, you lifted your hips up, and his cock began to slide out of you painfully slow.
“No, no,” his hands lifted off the bed, hovering warily in the air over your thighs. “Wait, m’sorry, fuck—”
You ignored him, lifting up until you were completely separated. You gasped in unison at the loss, and you fought against the voice in your head that told you to just forget it – to end the entire charade. But you held strong.
“Is that any way to speak to a woman?” you teased, resting your ass on the meat of his thighs. The corners of his mouth were downturned, eyebrows furrowed as he stared despondently at you, face the picture definition of frustration. His length hung heavy in between you, glistening with a thin layer of slick and pre-come.
“I’m sorry,” he repeated softly, and your stomach twisted at the earnestness in his eyes. He meant it, and you knew that. Your sweet, kind, loving man… so quick to temper. And forgiving him too fast would be just setting a bad example.  
“You know I can do this without you,” you lied dolefully, stroking a hand along the damp skin of your own thigh. “You’re nothing special, y’can’t do anything I couldn’t do just as well to myself.”
His frown deepened at your words, hurt flashing across his features. But he knew better than to speak in that moment – knew better than to dig himself into an even deeper hole by trying to argue.
“I want you to watch me,” you ordered sternly, fingers stroking thoughtfully through the coarse hair on your mound. “And if you touch me, or yourself, I won’t make you come tonight. Not even once. If you want to touch yourself so badly, be my guest, but you’ll be finishing yourself off.”
Dark eyes flashed down, jaw flexing as he watched your fingers dip to slide between your folds. You let out an exaggerated sound, gaze trained on the way his eyes devoured your movements. You spotted the muscle in his bicep tightening and loosening intermittently, and noticed that he was gripping the bedsheets so tight that you almost worried they would tear.
Moving carefully, you trailed a finger to the apex of your core and began to run circles over your clit, humming genuinely as the pleasure that had been building inside of you was reignited.
It used to make you shy, the way you touched yourself. The way your brain would run hazy with pleasure, and your hands would take on a mind of their own, grazing over your body as you shivered beneath your own touch. But now? It made you feel fucking formidable. The way you squeezed your breasts, made yourself gasp as you pinched and rolled your nipples. To rub a hand over your lower stomach and press against the soft flesh there, putting pressure on all the nerves underneath the skin to stimulate your g-spot. You were greedy, never stinging away or pulling back from what you knew felt good. It was intoxicating, knowing every intricate part of what made your own body tick. And you knew for a fact that it was like a drug to Joel to see you touch yourself. 
His dark eyes glared at your fingers, awestruck as he watched your movements, tongue swiping greedily over his lips as if in an attempt to taste you again. And when you moaned, he did too, soft groans slipping past his lips and hands fisting in the bedsheets as he watched your fingers disappear inside yourself over and over again.
“That’s it,” Joel said roughly. “Add another finger for me, wanna see you stretch yourse—.”
“Shut up,” you muttered, refusing to do as he asked. He grunted, lips pursing closed. “You like watching me like this? Seeing how I touch myself?” He moaned his assent, raking a hand through his unruly curls.
You were already so high strung, so pent up, that it didn’t take long for you to bring yourself to the precipice. And as you approached to your end, expression contorting in pleasure, Joel’s eyes dragged upward to focus on your face instead of your pussy. Devastated, his eyes flicked once back down to your slick fingers, unsure of what he wanted to see more, before steadfastly holding eye contact with you. And as the high washed over you in sharp, twitching waves, he held your gaze, eyes raking across your features and delighting in the way your jaw hung open in a stupor. 
You rode the waves of your pleasure for a moment, only the stopping the ministrations of your soaked fingers when your clit began to burn with oversensitivity. Your eyes slowly flicked open to find Joel’s gaze still trained on your face, although his expression was lax now. His lips formed a small, somewhat dazed smile, and you felt heat rise in your neck at the way he stared at you. All lust forgotten for a moment, he simply watched.  
“What’re you lookin’ at?” you teased softly, your own mouth lilting into a grin.
“I’m admirin’ you,” he repeated your words from earlier in the night, and you huffed out a short laugh.
“You were so good, Joel,” you responded kindly, leaning forward on trembling legs to cup his face. “So patient, let me fuck myself on top of you and didn’t try to touch me once. Did everything I asked, just like you said you would.”
“Of course,” he murmured, turning to press a chaste kiss to the inside of your palm. “I’m sorry.”
Confusion flitted through you, and then you relaxed, remembering the way he had cursed at you. “It’s okay, honey. Why don’t you c’mere?”
Still smiling, he pushed back into a seated position, this time pressing his chest flush to yours. You looped an arm around his neck, toying with the short curls at the base of his neck as he lined himself back up to your entrance. Once he was in position, he gave you a quick look to check in, and in response you simply sunk your hips over him, letting him fill you to the brim once more. He sighed in relief, forehead pressing against yours.
Tilting your chin forward, you dragged your lips lightly across his, kissing him for the first time in what felt like hours.
“Where do you want to touch me?” you asked.
“Everywhere,” he breathed into your mouth.
Your fingers tightened on the back of his neck, tongue trailing lazily along the seam of his lips. “Then touch me, baby.”
His hands were on you in a second. Calloused palms running over the skin of your back, your shoulders, your hips, fingers gripping flesh for leverage as he began to fuck up into you. He had always been an attentive lover, with a keen eye for attention to detail. And it was never as apparent as when he was touching you. Because as he held you against his chest, dragging you harshly over his cock, he did everything just the way you liked it - the way you did it when you were touching yourself.
His palm pushed on your lower stomach, applying pressure there to intensify the feeling against your g-spot. And when your hands drifted to touch your breasts, his hands came up to cover yours, and you squeezed them together until he brushed your hands away to twist and play with one of your nipples, mouth dropping to flick his tongue against the other.  
It was intoxicating. Both of you so drunk on the feeling of each other, of finally throwing out the pretence and just being together, that you found yourself hurtling towards the edge faster than ever.
As if he read your mind, Joel’s mouth left your breast, face pulling back to watch you, saying “I’m not gonna last.”
“It’s okay,” you panted heavily. “You can—I want you to come.”
“Need to feel you,” he frowned, shaking his head dizzily. “Want to feel you come around me, please.”
“I will,” you swore. “Come on, give it to me.”
“It’s yours,” he whimpered, wrapping an arm around your waist to hold you to him. “Fuckin’ take it, it’s yours.”
His hips begun to falter in their movement, and you picked up the slack with ease, rotating your hips against him to maintain the pace he’d set. His cock jumped inside of you in quick, jerking movements, and as soon as you felt his hot release inside you, your own orgasm hit like a freight train, walls pulsing around him, sucking him in as deep as you could take him. Your vision blacked out for a second, the intensity of multiple orgasms finally catching up to you and making you almost lightheaded. Extended moans and laboured breaths mingled in the air, forming a raucous symphony as you rode out your highs. Sweat beaded across his temples and dripped down the hard lines of his face. Your lower half shook with the intensity of it, thighs bracketed firmly against the outside of his hips. Joel sung your name, wet lips pressing the word into the flesh of your neck and repeating it there, embedding it into your sweat-soaked skin like it was all he knew how to say anymore.
“Fuuck,” he dragged out once your hips stopped moving, his teeth nipping gently against your pulse point.  
“Oh honey,” you murmured, head lolling forward to peck his forehead. “Don’t tell me you’re throwing in the towel? I seem to remember you saying something about how I could fuck you again, and do whatever I want with you.”
“Yeah, yeah,” his shoulders shook as he laughed quietly, keeping his face hidden in the crook of your neck. “Give me a damn minute.”
Although you could feel his length softening inside of you, and a mix of both of your come was steadily seeping out past his girth to make a mess of your thighs, you didn’t move just yet. And Joel seemed more than content to stay put, his strong arms enveloping your body almost entirely as he held you against his chest, breaths slowly beginning to even out. You shifted your head to the side to peer at his face, smiling when you saw that his eyes had indeed fallen shut.
“Lay down,” you encouraged quietly, letting out a quiet huff of surprise when he simply fell backwards into the mattress, dragging you down with him. Adjusting your legs to rest more comfortably on either side of him, you laid your head against his collarbone, pressing soft kisses to the burning skin of his chest.
“Just a minute,” he mumbled in assurance, although his eyes stayed closed and his breaths deepened.
“Are you okay?” you asked softly. “Can I get you some water? Something to eat?”
He hummed; eyes cracking open to peer blearily at you. “Water sounds about right.” You nodded, moving to get up from the bed, but he held you down, palm solid on your lower back. “Not just yet though,” he added quickly. “Just stay with me for a minute.”
“Okay baby,” you kissed his collarbone, allowing him a few more minutes of rest before you forced him to drink a litre of water and allow you to clean him up. His fingers mindlessly traced a pattern onto the skin of your back, stirring goosebumps across your flesh.
Slowly, a smirk slid across your face and you tilted your chin up to gaze at him once more. “Just saying though—you should probably get out of here before my boyfriend gets home. He’s pretty quick to anger, and I have a feeling he’d kill you if he found out what we just did.”
Joel groaned loudly, hand reaching up to press over your mouth and muffle your laughter. “Jesus, do you ever stop talking?”

Leona, I just thought you were another weirdo; there’s a whole bunch of them at Night Raven College, so there was nothing different about it, but you always seem sad, like, he gets it, nobody wants to be here listening to lectures.
But you looked like you'd cried a river full of tears; your voice sounds so horsed; he tries to pretend that he doesn’t care, yet here he is doing exactly that.
When Ruggie tried to wake up Leona, he gave up after a long while, leaving him in the botanical garden and waking him to see someone dancing. That someone is you. Wasn't this the first time he’d caught you dancing alone?
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
You hear a yawn from behind, stopping your dance and looking behind to see Leona lying against the tree of the botanical garden, looking back at you. "Ain't it boring to do the same dance over and over again?" Leona asks, his voice laced with sleep. You shake your head, a playful smile tugging at your lips.
"Oh, not at all! When a dance holds meaning, you can never tire of it. Well, I usually have a partner, but he's gone," you say with a sad sigh.
"Dance with me then," Leona suggests getting up from the ground, grabbing your hand, and interwinding your fingers together. "I'm not telling you to dance with me, you know, and this dance is really difficult!" you tell him with a smile.
"I've never been more attentive to anything in my life. Teach me," he grins back at you. "Alright then, just follow my lead and keep close to me, okay?" You ask him, "Alright then," and he nods back to you. You take a deep breath and slowly start your dance step by step, making sure you move in sync with him.

He’s seen alone crying, doesn’t say anything, and leaves you alone. Later, he grabs you and just takes you away to hang out with him; no, you don’t have a choice.
He's your biggest fan, and no one else can compare, but he doesn’t watch; he gets in there, grabs you, swings you around, and calls it dancing.
If he's in the mood, he’ll learn from you.
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
“Come on, let's dance together, shrimpy!” Floyd intertwined your delicate fingers with his while spinning with a bright smile on his face. You smiled back at him, trying not to get dizzy. Before Floyd, let’s go with falling on your buttocks from the dizziness.
“Shrimpy looks so funny and all dizzy!” Floyd laughs while you laugh along with him to humor him a little. “What did you think? Wasn’t it fun to dance with me?" He smiles, showing his sharp teeth.
“well Floyd I don’t think spinning around is dancing,” you mutter. “huh?” You hear him say his smile, stopping before grabbing your hands and pulling you up in a quick motion.
You gasp as he pulls you up. “Then show me how to dance. I want to see you do those pretty twirls!" He said he was grinning like crazy.
“I would love to teach you.” You smiled back.

10/10 right here. I just have to say he would be an amazing dancer, and I mean,  it would be a dream come true to dance with him (for me, it would be a dream).
He’s so mesmerized, you can dance too! So, want to dance with him? Yes or Yes. Man probably saw you dancing one night, then afterward went back to his dorm, thinking about how to ask to dance with him, like he needed to ask.
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
“A dance with you, child of man?” Malleus with a smile on his face asks you to hold out his gloved hand for you to take whilst you are outside of the ramshackle dorm, the cold wind making shivers yet you can’t help but be flustered by the sudden question.
You blush, not because your heart was pounding in your chest, not because of the way he had been smiling at you—though that had made your breath hitch and your cheeks flush—taking his hand, feeling the soft glove, “Of course” you smile as he placed his other hand on your body.
Slowly moving together, you can’t help but look away from his face, looking into his eyes—such bright green eyes so unreal to look into, it just freaked you out and made your head spin.
“Don’t look away.” You hear Malleus making you look back at him with a bit of surprise.
 “I won’t,”
𝐿𝒾𝓁𝒾𝒶 𝒱𝒶𝓃𝓇𝑜𝓊𝑔𝑒
Tumblr media
Father like son, 10/10 amazing dancer, he’s learned every type of dance there is to know.
He’s seen you dancing and also scared the hell out of you while you were making it to the main part. You just open your eyes and find his face inches into yours, making you shriek and fall backward.
Since that happened, he’s always come to watch you dance. Only sometimes since he likes your frightened face it's quite cute.
─── ⋆⋅☆⋅⋆ ───
Feeling the wind in your hair made you feel alive. The weather was just calling for you to dance in the open. The tree leaves were rustling. With you dancing without a care in the world, you were also trying not to worry about anything or anyone right now.
“a smile as beautiful as a flower,” a voice you know t well be Lilia, of course, his voice making you completely ruin your rhythm and jumping forward, looking behind to find him—hanging like a bat with a smile.
“You scared me!” You huff, clenching your chest before sighing, “If you don’t mind me intruding, may I ask for a dance with you?" Lilia asks, holding a hand out after standing on his feet instead of hanging.
“You could have asked before scaring me, but sure, I would love to dance with you.” the smile returned on your face with you taking his hand—before he kissed your hand, making you blush a little.
“I like how cute your face looks.”

if you liked this, consider tipping me on ko-fi! it'd mean a lot!

ViVi Magazine, February 2024 Issue Murakami Erica x Hirakawa Yuzuki Interviews (translation below)
Publication: December 22, 2023
Erica and Yuzuyan's rambling talk
The close combination of Hirakawa-chan, known as Yuzuyan, and Erica appear for the first time in ViVi. During this photoshoot, we could feel the close friendship between them, as they giggled and talked the whole time. We asked alot about these two, who are a hot topic right now.
-Our youth is now! Anyway…I'm so glad we met~!-
"What do you call each other?"
Erica: Everyone calls her Yuzuyan.
Yuzuki: I've never had a nickname before, but I got one for the first time on set (laughs). I call her Marie.
Erica: I think everyone at ViVi was surprised to call me by that name. Actually, my real middle name is Marie, and everyone on set of the show calls me Marie. I'm so happy about my secret name~
"What is it like on set?"
Yuzuki: We chat alot while waiting to film. There's the 6 of us filming together, and when we've all gathered, it's like break time at school (laughs). It's so loud and noisy!
Erica: Someone will get into things, someone else will join in and do something stupid, and so on and so forth (laughs). Every day is jam packed with inside jokes. It's silly, but the 6 of us spending time together is so much fun~.
Yuzuki: We've been filming together almost every day for 10 months, so our friendship levels are amazing. From the very beginning, when we first started filming, we were all in perfect sync and got along well. But, when the cameras start rolling, everyone gets serious. It's amazing how everyone's faces change so quickly!
"What kind of personalities do you two have?"
Yuzuki: Marie is, in a single word, a bomb (laughs). Marie's explosive power when she's tired is insane (laughs). She'll suddenly explode and become cheerful. And, we all get caught up in it and get excited too (laughs).
Erica: We spend so much time on the set, that if we don't talk, I get sleepy, so I feel at ease exploding because everyone will pick up the pieces (laughs).
Yuzuki: She does things that go way beyond what you'd expect, so I never get tired of watching her. I'm like, "Even though you're so cute, why would you do something like this?" She's constantly one upping how interesting she can be (laughs). I can't tell if she's trying to be funny or if it's all natural.
Erica: Thanks for letting me do it, and for being on the receiving end (laughs). Yuzuyan is everyone's "straight man" older sister, but she can also be everyone's little sister.
Yuzuki: I'm often described as being a 5th grade boy~. We're the "mess around" combo.
"What does your existence mean to each other?"
Erica: After becoming an adult, I never thought I'd meet someone who I could mess around with so much, even more so through work!
Yuzuki: I'm so glad that someone like her exists, where we can joke around and laugh like this as friends 💜.
"What were your first impressions and current impressions?"
Yuzuki: I knew of Marie's modeling from reading ViVi, and I thought she was just so~ cute and looked like a doll. But, the more I learned about her, the more I thought she was like a bomb (laughs).
Erica: My first impression of Yuzuyan was that she was a very refreshing person. But in reality, she talks alot and is hyperactive (laughs). She notices things that other people don't see and takes the initiative to follow up, and is very considerate. From the very beginning, I felt like she was a dependable older sister. She's also good at remembering directions (laughs).
"How was today's shoot? How do you like Erica as a ViVi model?"
Yuzuki: When I look through ViVi, Marie is so cool…..she doesn't always look like this! It makes me want to get involved (laughs). She wears cool clothes and her expressions are amazing! It's so cool!!
Erica: This was the first time for the two of us to do a photoshoot together for a fashion magazine. I was happy to be able to work as a model like I usually do. We were able to shoot as our usual natural selves, which was alot of fun and very fresh. I thought it would be so much fun to shoot with someone who understands me.
Yuzuki: For today's shoot, she led me around alot, and I was impressed by the fact that she was such a great ViVi model!
"Do you see any similarities between yourself and the role you play in Ohsama Sentai King-Ohger?"
Erica: I think we share the same caring nature. However, I myself am not strong willed, so I admire her for that.
Yuzuki: I think we're similar in that we have humanity. We're both basically no nonsense, and we have our "on and off" switch. However, while my role is to be immovable, I'm actually extremely hyperactive, which is the complete opposite.

The Basketball Coach Part 2 – Steve Harrington
Tumblr media
Part 1
Steve's POV
It's been about a month since Y/N and I found out the truth. When Y/N told me that I was Johnny's father, I had a lot of things I needed to figure out. I instantly knew that I wanted to be a part of his life; of both of their lives. The things I had to figure out was how I would support the two of them on my small salary.
After finding out I was a father, I went back to work for my dad. It sucked but it was worth it if it meant I could spoil the woman I loved and take care of my son. Every decision I've made has been to benefit my son and Y/N. All I think about is what I can do to make their lives better.
Tonight, Johnny was at his friend's house while Y/N and I were having a date night. We got back to her house after dinner and started watching a movie. I looked down to see Y/N watching the movie as she played with my hands. My arms were wrapped around her and she was leaning back against my chest.
"The school is having a clothing drive Saturday morning," I started. "I had to sign up, but I figured it would be fun if you and Johnny came with me. We could get lunch after."
I smirked when Y/N quickly moved so she was straddling my hips.
"That sounds like a wonderful idea," she smiled. I gently put my hand on the back of her neck and brought her lips to mine. She let out a soft moan as our lips started moving in sync. We were just about to get into it when the front door opened. I held back a laugh as she quickly got off my lap.
"Johnny?" She called out as she fixed her shirt. "Is that you?"
"Yep!" Johnny said from the other room. When he walked in and saw his mom and me on the couch, he smirked.
"What's up, sweetie?" Y/N asked as she stayed on the couch but turned so she was looking at him. "I thought you and some of the boys were hanging out at Tyler's house tonight."
"We are," he said, sending me one last look before turning back to his mom. "That's why I'm here. The guys wanted to stay late playing that new game. Tyler's mom suggested we sleep over so we didn't have to drive home at 3 in the morning. Is that okay?"
"Of course," Y/N smiled. "But make sure you're back here tomorrow morning. All three of us are helping with the high school clothing drive."
"What time do you want me home?" He asked.
I smiled when Y/N looked at me. "The clothing drive starts at 10. If we want to help set up we should be there around 9."
"Okay," he said simply. "I'll make sure I'm home before 8:30."
"Thanks, baby," Y/N gushed. "Have fun with the boys."
"Will do." Johnny walked over and kissed his mom's forehead. He sent me a look before saying, "You two have fun with your sleepover."
Before either one of us could respond, Johnny ran upstairs. Y/N turned to me with bright red cheeks.
"I think it's safe to say that our son is okay with us being together," I chuckled. It was hard to ignore the feeling I had when I said our son.
"I would say so too," Y/N smiled. She leaned over and gave me a soft kiss. I deepened the kiss by grabbing her face. We didn't think about how long we'd been making out until we heard Johnny running back downstairs.
"Have fun!" Y/N called out.
"You two!" Johnny teased. "Be careful."
Y/N sighed as the door shut behind him. I grabbed her chin and gently made her look at me.
"It's okay," I whispered. "I know it's a little weird, but he's okay with this."
"I think it helps that you're his father," she whispered. "Not sure if he'd be this okay with me having a sleepover of my own if it was some random guy I'd been dating, but. . ."
"We're a family," I shrugged. "It's a big adjustment for all of us."
* * * * *
Reader's POV
As Johnny and I drove to the school to meet Steve, my mind went back to the conversation Steve and I had last night. I couldn't help it. I needed to hear it from him.
"Are you sure you're okay with Steve and me?"
"Mom," he sighed. "We've talked about this. A lot. I liked Coach Harrington before I found out he was my dad. Plus, I'd have to be a complete idiot not to see how happy he makes you."
"It's not weird for you?" I asked.
"Of course, it is," Johnny shrugged. "It's a little adjustment but I like having him around, Mom. I'm not just saying that. When he's around, it feels like we're. . . It feels like we're a family."
"I know how long you've wanted that," I whispered, my voice breaking. Johnny let out a small chuckle as he reached over and grabbed my hand.
"I promise, Mom," he whispered. "I don't have an issue with him being around a lot. I want my dad in our life."
We pulled into the school parking lot and my eyes instantly landed on Steve. As I parked, Steve jogged over to my side. He opened the door and helped me out. He gently kissed my lips but froze when he pulled away and saw the look on my face.
"Everything okay?" He asked, looking over my shoulder at Johnny.
"She asked me for the millionth time if I was okay with my mother dating my father," Johnny sighed.
"Hey," Steve warned in his teasing voice. "Don't sass your mother, young man."
"Sorry, Dad," Johnny chuckled as he jogged over to a group of his friends. Steve grabbed me and pulled me into his chest.
"I love when he calls you that," I whispered.
"Me too," he whispered before leaning in and pressing his lips to mine. I broke the kiss with a teasing push. I laughed at his pout.
"Put that pouty face away," I giggled. "We've got canned goods to sort, donated clothes to fold, and toys to organize."
A few hours later, I was writing up tax receipts for people who donated when someone grabbed my waist. I looked over my shoulder to see Steve smirking at me.
"What?" I chuckled.
"Come with me."
He took the clipboard out of my hand and placed it on the table. He then took my hand and led me out of the gym.
"Where are we going?" I giggled as Steve led me down the hallway.
He stopped in front of a science lab and sent me a wink before pulling me into the empty classroom. The minute the door was closed, he pressed his lips to mine. I wrapped my arms around his neck and deepened the kiss.
I giggled against his lips as he picked me up and gently placed me on the edge of one of the tables, standing between my legs. We broke the kiss and pressed our foreheads together.
"You think Johnny's okay out there?" I asked.
"He's fine," Steve chuckled as he leaned back and gently grabbed my chin. "He and some of the other boys on the team are helping put food baskets together."
I grabbed his shoulders and pulled him closer to me. He wrapped his arms around my waist, smiling at me.
"I don't think I've ever been this happy," he said, his voice dropping.
"Me either," I smiled. "I mean, Johnny makes me incredibly happy but it's nice not having to do it alone."
"You don't have to do it alone anymore," he chuckled. "You and Johnny never have to be alone again."
I ignored the tears in my eyes as he pressed his lips to mine. I let out a small moan as our lips started moving in sync. Things started slow but slowly picked up. Before we could get too carried away, I broke the kiss.
"Everything okay?" He asked.
"There's actually something I wanted to talk to you about," I started off shaky.
"Oh?" Steve asked, tucking a piece of hair behind my ear, his hand lingering on my cheek. "What is it, baby?"
"I've been thinking. . . What if you moved in with Johnny and me? Now, I know there are a lot of logistics we need to figure out and everything but. . ."
Steve cut me off by grabbing my face with both hands and kissing me. I reached up and grabbed his wrists but didn't pull his hands away as I kissed him back. He broke the kiss with a small moan.
"I would love to move in with you and our son," he whispered, his face inches from mine. "It would make us feel even more like a family."
Steve's POV
As Y/N helped some of the other team moms organize the clothes by size, I looked for Johnny. If I was going to go through with my plan, I needed his help.
"Hey, Johnny," I said when I found him playing with some of the toy donations.
"Hey, Dad." I ignored the feeling in my stomach when he called me that. "What's up?"
"I need to talk to you about something." I couldn't help but look over my shoulder at Y/N.
"Please tell me you're finally going to ask Mom to marry you."
"Wait, what?" I stuttered. "You really. . . You want. . ."
"Yes," Johnny laughed. "Hurry up and marry Mom. I love you guys but I'm kinda tired of Mom worrying about me and your relationship. You make Mom happy. That's all that matters to me. Plus, you're my dad. We should be a family. Officially."
I was at a loss for words. If I'm being honest, I was worried when Y/N told Johnny the truth. I was worried that he would hate that I was dating his mom or that I was his biological father. But ever since the beginning, he's been supportive.
"Want to help me with it?"
* * * * *
"She's coming!" Johnny yelled as he ran into the family room. I moved in with them three weeks ago and Johnny and I have been planning this since then.
"I'll go to Drake's house so you guys can celebrate. I'll come home tomorrow and we can have a family celebration."
"Thanks, bud," I chuckled.
Johnny ran over and wrapped his arms around me. "I love you, Dad," he whispered.
"I love you, too."
I let out a shaky breath as Johnny ran out the kitchen door.
"Hello?" I heard Y/N call from the front hallway. "Is anyone home?"
"I am," I called back. "I'm in the family room."
"Where is everyone?" She giggled as her voice got closer. "For a second I thought I saw Johnny hoping the side fence. I was starting to worry that. . ."
Y/N cut herself off when she walked into the family room and saw me standing in the middle of the room. She looked around at the photos of us and the candles spread out around the room.
"What is going on?" She asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
"I think it's time we officially become a family," I started my speech. I walked over, grabbed her hand, and pulled her into the middle of the room. "I love you, Y/N. I've loved you since that night all those years ago when we got drunk and hooked up. I had no idea who you were, but I constantly thought about that amazing girl. Every day we've been together has been extremely wonderful. Before we reconnected, I felt like I had a giant hole in my life. But now? I have a woman I am madly in love with and a son. There is only one thing that could make my life better."
I grabbed the black velvet box out of my pocket and knelt down on one knee. I smiled when she gasped and covered her mouth with both hands.
"The only thing I'm missing is having my family be official. I need for my son to have both parents. I need the woman I love to officially be mine and marry me," I continued. "I love you so much, Y/N. I promise to do everything I can to take care of you and our son. Will you marry me?"
"Yes," Y/N said between tears. I slipped the ring on her finger and stood up. I laughed as she threw her arms around me and pressed her lips to mine.
"I love you, baby," Y/N whispered as she broke the kiss.
"I love you," I chuckled. "I can't wait to spend the rest of our lives together."
"Me too," Y/N said, her face turning pink. "But, baby, I have a small question."
"What is it, darling?"
"Where's Johnny?"
I couldn't help but laugh. "He's hanging with Drake tonight," I explained. "He wanted to make sure we had privacy to celebrate."
"That was sweet of him."
I leaned down and kissed her. Our kiss got heated as we fell back onto the couch. I hovered over her and heard her giggle as we didn't bother stopping from getting into the kiss.
"Steve," she gasped, breaking the kiss.
"Yes, baby?"
"Let's go celebrate upstairs."

Forgetful
Tumblr media
Pairing: Liv Morgan x Fem!Reader
Warnings: Fluff!
Word Count: 1,085
Summary: You and Liv try to remember y’all’s first kiss, but the stories don’t add up.
A/N: I found this kinda funny. Hope You Enjoy!
Tumblr media
You sat in the catering with your friends in Liv's lap, giggling at something Naomi said. Just then all y'all's attention was turned to the TV, seeing Seth and Becky kiss for the first time.
Gasps echoed around the arena and backstage as no one saw it coming. No one would've expected them to be dating. When the couple walked back, they were met by clapping and cheering.
Seth went off to go take a shower while Becky sat with y'all. "Congratulations, Becks!" Becky gave a small wave, dismissing it. "That wasn't our first kiss, y'know?" The girls only shook their heads.
"To us it was. You've never told us about y'all!" Liv had a small pout on her face. "Yeah, I told y'all about me and Y/n and I remember our first kiss like it was yesterday. We getting ready for a date and-
Liv's Flashback.
You put the finishing touches of makeup on before smiling to yourself. You've really outdone yourself tonight, but it was mainly for your date Liv.
You and Liv have been talking at the arena leading to this date. You were nervous, but Liv was a sweet girl so you knew everything was gonna be fine. Just then, a knock at the door brought you out your thoughts.
You quickly opened it revealing a shocked looking Liv. "What is there something on my face?" You worriedly began wiping your face, trying to get whatever it was off. "No, it's just you're so beautiful." You blushed at her compliment taking her hand.
Liv smiled, jumping up and down. "There's this new fancy restaurant that I've been wanting to go to, so I chose you to come with me!" Your heart fluttered at how happy she was. "Awe, thank you Liv." She helped you in her car before driving off to the place.
When you got there it sure was fancy. Red and gold everywhere, people dressed in beautiful dresses and handsome tuxedos. A lady sat you at your table and then y'all ordered.
"What may I get y'all this evening?" You and Liv looked over the menu and came up with an agreement. "Yes, can we get a big plate of Chicken Alfredo?" The waitress looked confused, but didn't say anything. "Of course, I'll be back out shortly."
As y'all waited for your food, y'all began talking about work, family, and many other things. Your food was placed on the table and y'all dug in fast.
You were so busy eating that you didn't realize you were sucking on the same noodle as Liv. You both were determined to eat the noodle and before you knew it, y'all were pulled together in a quick kiss. You two pulled back instantly with shuttered apologies, but still continued eating.
End of Liv's Flashback
Liv smirked proudly, arms crossing over her chest. "That's how we had our first kiss." Your brows scrunched down in confusion. "Wait, I don't remember it like that." Liv looked at you this time, shocked. "It did happen because that's when we went to the restaurant 10 minutes away from our house."
The girls watched in amusement as you both had your disagreements. "No Liv, that happened last week!" Liv paused before thinking about the Chicken Alfredo she ate last Thursday. "Oh, yeah. My bad." You rolled your eyes looking at everyone. "This is what actually happened-"
Your Flashback
You and Liv sat behind a couple of crates backstage, giggling like little children. Y'all planned to jump scare anyone who comes by. You and Liv have become 'an easy target' backstage, meaning anyone could say or do anything to y'all and not do anything about it.
Now, it's time. You and Liv watched Mandy Rose all by with a cake in her hand, dressed in a new black and gold dress, hair and makeup freshly done. You and Liv did a silent countdown before jumping out. "BOO!" The sync yelling caused Mandy to slip and fall, making the cake fly in the air, landing on her face and in her hair.
It took her a moment before letting out an ear piercing scream. "Are you freaking kidding me!?" You and Liv took off running when you heard Sonya coming. "Where are they!?" You and Liv ended up hiding in a dark closet, waiting for Mandy and Sonya to go past the closet. "Do you think they're gone?"
You shrugged your shoulders, peeking out the crack in the door. "Where's the light in here?" There was barely any room, with y'all's feet almost touching. Liv tried feeling for the light switch, but failed. "Oh wait, what's that?"
Liv reached for something behind you and you felt something being moved beneath you. "Wait Liv don't-" It was already too late when she moved the box under you, making you and Liv tumble down.
That wasn't the only thing that happened because you felt something soft on your lips. The sound of the door opening made your eyes shoot open. You then saw Liv on top of you, foreheads almost touching, and that when it hit you that y'all were kissing.
You were interrupted when you both got pulled away from each other. It was Mandy and Sonya ready to fight.
Y'all might have got your asses beat, but you did it before your first kiss.
End of Your Flashback
This time you smiled proudly as everyone heard your story. "Oh yeah, I remember that!" You and Liv shared a small peck, for celebration. "Y'all are both dipshits, that's not how it went." Everyone turned around to see the Women's Champ, Rhea Ripley.
"And how do you know that?" Liv challenged. "Because I was there." Liv paused, a look of confusion spreading to her face. "You were?" Rhea nodded her head.
"Yeah, the kiss happens because y'all were playing Twister and Liv fell on top of Y/n and your lips came together. Then, Liv got up and ran like a little girl to her room while Y/n just sat here with a goofy smile on her face."
You thought for a moment and began laughing. "That's definitely what happened!" The girls around the table laughed at how dumb y'all sounded telling stories that happened recently. Rhea then added, "It took me 2 weeks to get y'all to talk to each other so y'all could go on a date."
You and Liv wiped the tears away from your eyes from all the laughing y'all did.
Y'all are just so forgetful.

Tiny
Tumblr media
13th Doctor x AFAB!Reader x Dhawan!Master (romantic between 13 and Reader and Romantic between Master and Reader.)
Reader is shorter than The Doctor and The Master in this fic, will mention height quite a bit, also making up some planets, Reader uses he/they pronouns, possesive Time Lords
Fluff, suggestive, tiny bit of angst
You glanced up at the two Time Lords in front of you, an amused smile on your face. The two had started to fight again over who was going to take you. You looked down at your watch. "Don't want to interrupt but I've only got seven hours to roam around until I have to take this off."
The Doctor looked at you, her head tilting somewhat down to look at you. Her arms crossed. "I told you that you could wear the one we snagged. It lets you compress for hours and you wont damage anything."
The Master groaned and rested an elbow on your shoulder, his shoulder looking like it was being held uncomfortably but you didn't mention anything. "Let him wear the earth one. The one from Yorg doesn't do well in the heat!"
You groaned and pushed your head onto his elbow, looking up at The Master. "Can we just go?"
The two looked at you. The doctor smiling softly and and reached down to grab your hand. "Let them pick, Master. Its their trip after all."
You looked between the two again and smiled. "Lets go dancing, ballroom dancing."
The Doctor's eyebrows furrowed as her eyes scanned you. "Dancing isn't good wearing a binder and you know that."
You huffed, looking at The Master. "Come on, we went to that intergalactic cruise ship and danced. I was wearing a binder that whole time."
You had never seen The Masters eyes darken so quickly or his head move so quickly to look at you. "What do you mean you were wearing a binder for 10 hours?"
The Doctor's eyes widened and looked down at you. "What do you mean 10 hours, Master?"
"He wore a binder for ten hours in a tux and looking insanely gorgeous while crushing his lungs." The Master said, his voice taut and you realized you had made a mistake.
"How about this, to make you two feel better, why don't I take today off from wearing the binder?" You asked and the two nodded in sync causing The Doctor to groan while The Master cheered.
You wormed out from their arms and moved to go to the bathroom to remove the binder when a hand grabbed the back of your shirt. A soft tug had you turning to face the man in front of you, his eyes scanning you. "You can just take it off here, we both have seen your body."
The Doctor snorted and rolled her eyes. "Come on, we all know that's just an excuse so you can see his body."
The Master shrugged and his hands settled on your hips, grabbing at the edge of your shirt. You shook your head, and pulled away, you didn't want to speak. The Master only nodded and let go, letting you run off to the bathroom.
~
You had worn the most masculine clothes you had without wearing a suit. The two Time Lords had chosen a planet that looked good enough and had a festival with dancing, perfect enough to appease all three of you. You had immediately dragged the two to the food, wanting to try something new. The three of you just enjoying the festivities before something inevitable happened, like a cyberman attack or Dalek's finding the three of you.
Of course, as usual trouble finds The Doctor and the three of you are forced to figure out how to repair this town's water recycler. You were arms deep in machinery when your brain thought of something. "Hey, Doc?"
"Yes love?" You rolled your eyes and pulled your arms out.
"You guys know how I told you two i wasnt gonna wear the binder?"
The Master let out a sigh. "I already clocked that you were still wearing it when you came back out."
The Doctor's head looked between you and The Master, a brown eyebrow raised. "You lied to me?"
You shook your head. "Master, its a sports bra. Would still have a somewhat compressed chest then nothing."
The Master snorted. "Look at you, I'm finally rubbing off on you."
Your face scrunched, and shook your head. "Never say that again, Master."
His face lit up and a grin emerged. "Ooh, did i make you think of something?"
You shook your head again. "Are you done with that?"
The Master went to speak until The Doctor stopped him. "What was your original question?"
"Its getting kinda hard to breath."
Your words stopped the Time Lords in an instant. Their eyes scanning you as you worked on pulling your shirt off and The Master quickly grabbed your wrist, stopping you. "We should check you out in the TARDIS."
"Is.. Is that another innuendo?" You asked, looking up at him.
He shook his head, sliding his hand up your shirt so it rested at your stomach, feeling how it moved with each breath. "Its not an issue with his lungs."
The Doctor started to hold her sonic out toward you, the whirring sound filling the air. You looked over at her and just watched. You loved seeing that concentrated look on her face and her eyebrows scrunching together while she read whatever the sonic screwdriver was telling her. The Master lightly tapped your nose, making you refocus on him, his eyebrows raised and then wiggled making you laugh.
The Doctor started to sonic the air and you tilted your head somewhat, The Master's hand on your stomach was warm and he had slid a hand onto your cheek, letting you rest your head on it and you yawned. "The air is 99.99% like Earth's so i dont see the problem."
"Theres still that 00.01% that isnt like oxygen." You mumbled, feeling sleepy.
The Master nodded, like he was answering a question that wasnt audibly asked, and moved to pick you up. "I'm gonna take him back to the TARDIS."
The Doctor nodded as she went quiet and moved so re-scan the machine the three of you were working on.
~
You woke up in warm purple sheets, a warm arm had been wrapped around your waist while a leg had trapped yours on the bed, your eyes trying to adjust to the new location and you turned your head to spot The Doctor sitting on the floor, her head tilted back onto the bed, and just staring at you.
"What happened?" You whispered, and she smiled.
"The air was making you tired, something about nano particles in the air." She mumbled.
You smiled and shifted back into The Master, you wormed an arm out and held it toward her. "Come Cuddle?"
"I dunno if i should get in a bed with him, love."
There was a puff of air on your hair as The Master snorted. "You werent saying that the other night."
"Oh hush!"

I would love it if you did fluff with a reader that has clinical depression and GAD that SH because I've been struggling with this sense I was 10 and reading your stories really makes my day. Thank you for writing and its okay if you dont want to :)
so sorry you’ve been struggling with such bad things at a super young age, that’s horrible :(
i’m so glad that u love reading my stories 😭 i’m literally sobbing this is so sweet 🫶🏽. the only thing is, i had no idea who u wanted to write the reader with, so i just did atsv x gn!reader
if this isn’t what you wanted, PLEASE reach out!!
“just the two of us”
pairings: atsv x gn!depressed!anxious!reader
warnings: sfw, kinda a hc/fic thingy,
—————————————————————————-
• lemme start off by saying hobie is NOT the piece of shit that some people hc him as.
• this man is TOO kind for his own good, did y’all see him help miles when he barely even knew him?
• so when hobie finds out you suffer from any degree of depression or anxiety, trust me this dude is helping in any way he can.
• don’t get me wrong, he won’t treat you like a toddler who can’t be left alone, but he’s probably gonna be a bit protective.
• you’d be eating with hobie on your shared couch, watching some random dating show while hobie snickered at the contestants stupidity.
• “can’t believe this shi’ is real, ‘s crazy..” hobie muttered, looking over to you to see that you were definitely not paying attention to the show. your eyes were glued to your hands, fidgeting.
• his eyebrows furrowed as he motioned for you to come closer to him, slowly understanding what was going on.
• you reluctantly sat next to him, you could feel salty tears stinging at your eyes.
• “take deep breaths with me, k?” it wasn’t a question. he held your hand in his as he inhaled deeply.
• you were hesitant. everyone had told you to just simply take deep breaths when you were stressed, and i mean everyone. you thought it was total bullshit and ignored it time after time. but maybe this time wouldn’t be a bad time to try.
• your chest rose and fell in sync with hobie’s, the only sound was each other’s inhales and exhales as you felt that anxious feeling in your stomach to fade away.
• you focused on hobie, how comfortable he made you. you could really be you around him.
• “i love you, hobie.”
• “you feelin’ a bit better?” he asked.
• “yeah. yeah, a lot better.”
—————————————————————————-
i can’t even explain how sorry i am about how long this took, i have no one to blame and i’m extremely sorry 😭
likes & reblogs are never under appreciated!!
thanks so much for reading <3

Yes, Christmas event :D! If it's not too much trouble, I'd like to request: (10, 4, 2) with Silver 💗 🗡️❄️
I love your work, I'm always excited when you post something new about the twst Boys 😊💘 I wish you a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year🎇🌠🌌
‎˃ ᵕ ˂ . . "merry christmas and happy new year to you too! thanks for the kind words :P"
Tumblr media Tumblr media
prompts,
twisted holidays event
slow dancing — in the living room.
my wish.. — they overhear your wish about being together forever.
a home, but made out of pillows — in a particularly cold day. you get an idea to invite your lover into your so called fort of pillows, it's warm when you're in it, and even warmer when you're both pressed up against each other side by side.
character. silver
note. malleus is the best friend here fr.. also I literally had to put a divider because I was putting in spoilers for chapter 7.. 😭
Tumblr media
slow dancing
for a gift malleus is sure is generous.
while you're sure that his present for you certainly didn't leave a dent in his fortune it was still a little surprising to find an elegantly carved vinyl just waiting for you to take care of.
if a vinyl wasn't enough he even included a set of photograph records for you to listen to, of which are usually classics. most of it fit the briar valley vibe, slow and elegant.
but it did get you in the mood.
you blink as a lovely tune echoes around your walls. it feels like ramshackle is a little less abandoned, excluding the fact that silver was sleeping soundly in your couch that you doubt was comfortable.
I knew I should've replaced it. you sigh, but in all honesty crowley should've funded you for renovation.
the music plays for a while, occasionally repeating a tune which you eventually caught on and started humming in sync yourself. you imagine your surroundings fading into a bright ballroom, how nice it must be to dance with this tune.
silver stirs from his sleep. the very tune that a figure he can't quite remember sang to him. the words are blurry but he can recognize the sound from anywhere.
through blurry eyesight he pins his gaze on someone dancing in front of him. the movements were a little clumsy, perhaps they were out of practice or a first timer. silver though, lilia made sure to teach him ballroom etiquette even if he probably wasn't gonna get exposed to that kind of atmosphere himself.
he can't see them clearly but he can tell that their character seems very warm.
you tilt your head. "silver? sorry. I must've awoken you." you apologize through a small whisper, probably keeping mind of staying quiet for his sake.
wow they know my name. silver thinks. he feels like he never really knew anyone from his dreams but this person is really familiar.
what a strange dream.
"it's alright. I'm more glad to be awake than asleep to be honest." silver sighs. "anyways.. I can't quite remember where I heard this from but it's familiar."
"really? I would've mistaken it as something played for a royal ball or something."
"well. actually it wasn't really meant for those but I think the late queen and king met through that one melody." silver explained, sitting up from his position and rubbing his eyes to remove the sleep. "then it just happened to honor their love."
prince philip and aurora's romance was a strange one. lilia had told him so, but it was almost like he was purposely leaving out details of their life to silver. he never pondered on it though, it's not like he's.. related to them..
an idea pops in your mind.
"you know how to dance silver?"
he shakes his head. "kind of. I've only ever watched people dance."
you smile and extend a hand.
contrary to expectations, silver is really good at dancing. he was a little stiff and unsure at first but he knows how usual dances like these go and he eases up the more the time passes.
you don't know if he was lying that he wasn't that good at dancing or it's like a natural instinct of him to just be good.
silver is slower than most dancers but his movements carry a twinge of elegance rather than sloppiness. for a man who looks stern on the outside he certainly has a way of handling you gently.
whenever you misstep or fall behind in general silver never comments on it. with practice you'll make perfect and it feels like he's trying to imply that he can dance with you whenever you want to get better at it.
oh well. most of the time he never really strayed his gaze, you're absolutely sure he just looked at you the whole time you guys were just swaying in the middle of the living room.
silver liked it cause it kept him awake and it felt oddly intimate.
my wish..
maybe he was face down on a surface. which made you think he was asleep, as in after everyone left you just look outside to the sky and clasp your hands together in a silent omen.
"whoever god is out there.. please let us stay together for eternity.. if not then a long time." you murmur silently and suddenly the sleep in silver is promptly kicked away.
he's definitely wide awake now but you probably didn't notice as you continue to silently stare outside. silver wishes nothing more to just turn to you and cuddle next to you out of joy but he supposes he deserves a moment to take it in.
god forbid if lilia ever found out about the thoughts he's having.. he knows the boys will be going on about wedding bells and frankly? silver isn't confident that he can protect you from everything else yet.
first he must!!! not fall asleep suddenly!!! what if danger comes and he just passes out?
all worries aside he's just spacing out staring into the wall he deemed very interesting in hopes of settling the warmth in his heart.
a home, but made out of pillows
silver usually doesn't like falling asleep at all but he can't help it.
it's almost like he's been cursed or something haha..
the sleep just stays in his bones till it succeeds to make him fall asleep, and only does he feel better when he does rest. it's like staying awake for a whole day and you're unable to resist the sleep when you're laying on a bed.
silver has grown to like sleeping whenever you're around cause the sleep is a 100% better. sometimes he falls asleep outside in the dead of the night after patrolling the dorm and he feels really cold afterwards. lilia finds him usually but he doesn't always.
but with you he always feel warm before and after he wakes up.
with winter practically hitting the school by storm it's much more colder, the only times to feel warm is when you're in front of a fireplace.
the odd thing in the fireplace in your dorm though? was the fact that there was a literal fort of pillows in it.. you even tied a blanket to make a makeshift roof, the rest? all comfortable pillows that anyone would feel like royalty laying in it.
you say something about 'if I ever become royalty my room is gonna look like this'
(well you might be one lmaooo)
I NEED TO STOP PUTTING THESE
silver merely dons a soft look when you invite him inside and he gratefully accepts. he's already feeling sleepy by the sight and he's not even laying down yet!
you pat down the spot next to you and silver doesn't object as he immediately falls down next to you.
he definitely didn't mean to just go down like that it's like his body is failing him 😿
"feeling sleepy?" you hum. wrapping your arms around whatever you can reach in silver.
the fort worked like a charm. it was incredibly warm. you can barely feel the cold and with silver's habit to slumber you totally understand his strange behavior.
silver, in a daze. nods silently. you can tell he's attempting to fight back the sleep with the eyelids that are blinking rapidly. "no.. yes..."
you chuckle. so cute!
"just sleep. that's why I made this you know. for you."
silver dreamt of you that night and he almost forgot that it was winter.
if you already didn't know he LOVES the fort! at some point got disappointed when you took it down but never spoke against you.
wishes to experienced that again.
clarification
in slow dancing I was originally gonna write the slow dancing scene in a scenario format, which I was gonna imply that silver thinks it's a dream. (actually there was already implications in the finished work that he thinks it's a dream but I changed my mind yet kept it there) therefore 'i know you, I met you once upon a dream' was gonna be a quote used once the initial drowsiness wears off him and he realizes he's dancing with you
^ idea stems from that new chapter 7 if ykyk
ngl I'm lowkey projecting the theories into this post HAHAHA

Thai QL Favorites Tag Game
Nobody tagged me but it sounds like fun so I'm not waiting for an invite. Created by @thatgirl4815 as Thai BL Favorites Tag Game and acknowledging @justafriend-ql whose Thai BL Favorites (JustAFriend-QL) post led me to it. If you want context for my answers, I suggest you check out my introduction post where I list what I've seen.
Favorite Thai QL: Not Me. Brilliant, well acted, asks important questions, masterful dual role. Have watched it twice and could watch it several more times and likely will if I can.
Favorite Pairing: ThunMed from He's Coming to Me. Delightful to watch its development and lots of fun. Runner-up at the moment is LimingHeart from Moonlight Chicken.
Most underrated actor: Gawin Caskey after seeing him in Dark Blue Kiss and Not Me. Pleased to see him finally getting a lead role in Be My Favorite. Runner up to Jennie Panhan in 3 Will Be Free, where she totally nailed her role (although people may dispute whether 3WBF is a QL).
Favorite Character: Thun from He's Coming to Me.
Favorite Side Character: Hin from Lovely Writer.
Favorite scene in a QL: Episode 5 rooftop scene in Bad Buddy.
Favorite line in a QL: Oh, gosh, this is so difficult. Not because there's so much to choose from (although there probably is) but because I'm basing it on the subtitles and the microscopic amount of Thai I've picked up from watching QL. Contrary to what Kawi in Be My Favorite thinks of the job, it takes real skill to be both long/brief enough to sync with the original and still be readable, as well as get across the cultural aspects. As much as I'm lukewarm on Nitiman as a series, that series subtitler was great in establishing cultural context, particularly about the insults dog and buffalo. Conversely, subtitles of Thai QL often lack nuance around address/pronouns. Also, in my current watch, Be My Favorite, as well as some other series, I'm particularly annoyed around the falling "um" sound being subtitled so literally, as "Um", where it seems to me, possibly mistakenly, as an unenthusiastic assent - maybe a better subtitle would be "Whatever" and I'm open to being educated about this word.
Given that long introduction to my choice, the thing that comes to mind is a line where I caught on second watch of Bad Buddy that the subtitles didn't match what the characters were saying, and I was feeling pleased with myself. Specifically, in episode 2, part 2, 3:54-4:02. Wai is teasing Pran. The subtitles read "Unless you're starting to fall for his sweet words" but the Thai includes the words "thong yod," the name of the sweet that Pat has anonymously gifted Pran with. The friends then chant "thong yod" multiple times as the subtitles read "sweetie". (See Telomeke-BBS post about thong yod.)
However, that isn't really about a line that's my favorite because of it being a good line (although, as @telomeke-bbs explains, it is a really good line). It's just that it's an ego-centric reason for it to be my favorite.
But the problem is, since I've never heard Thai QL lines in a language that I understand and am dependent on the subtitles, it's hard to feel invested in a particular line or even remember specific lines months or years after I've seen the series, as opposed to lines in English-language films, some of which I remember 10 or more years after having seen them.
There was a line in By My Favorite that I laughed out loud at, but that's something I watched yesterday. It's not good enough to be my all-time favorite.
But actually, now that I think about it, I love Kwan's line in episode 8 part 3/4 of He's Coming to Me. She's just so supportive of her son and his current ghost/her past live boyfriend. At 3:25-3:40, the subtitles read "It's fine, you don't need to talk about it. Feelings are hard to talk about or control. I do believe, though, that whatever happened, it's for the best." and the love really comes through in her voice. Re-watching it so I could transcribe it for this post brought me to tears. Thun's coming-out scene in episode 6 part 3/4, Kwan's monologue at 9:52-10:31 where she makes it clear she accepts her gay son unreservedly, is a close second, although a bit long to be called a favorite "line." Can I just say I love Sine's acting?
For a just-for-fun brief line it would be her line in Secret Crush on You where Sine (as Toh's mother) drops a lime while prepping dinner and reaches for it and the other characters freak out and she jokes that they watch Nang Nak too much. The joke is that Sine played the ghost in Nang Nak (a late 90's Thai horror film, which I've seen) and there's a scene where she drops some food out of her stilt house while fixing dinner for her husband, whereupon her husband, who thought she was still alive, sees her stretch her ghostly arm out through the floor to the ground below to retrieve it, thus discovering that she's actually dead.
Most Anticipated QL (& why): 23.5 (hinges on my editing BL to QL, which I would have done anyway since I prefer the term QL, but so be it) because I think InkPa made a great pair in Bad Buddy, the actors paired well in their Oiishi Zero drama-mercial, and I think they will be great to watch together as the leads for a whole series. If it has to be BL and not GL, then Triage as I'm waiting for a non-gray way to watch it so I'm supporting its production.
Healthiest relationship in a QL: See Favorite Pairing.
Most toxic relationship in a QL: The two leads in Cutie Pie, which led me to drop the series.
Guilty pleasure series: Rak Diao, the situation comedy. It's trash but way fun. Content warning for treating verbal sexual harassment as a running joke.
Most underrated series: (thank you @justafriend-ql for adding this one) 180 Degrees Longitude Passes Through Us. Way more serious and studied than the typical QL, not that there's anything wrong with typical QL, and not to everyone's taste because of the age gap, but I don't think it's gotten the attention it deserves.
Tagging the folks whose writing on QL led me to join Tumblr: @telomeke-bbs, @absolutebl, @miscellar, @waitmyturtles, and @bengiyo (sorry if you've already answered these)

//based on a dream but 99% is not, it was really only the premise. the one dream I have ever had about these two and of course it had to be something like this. Didn't really feel like making a full fledged story though, so here you go.
@accioturtur
"I've got eyes on 'em."
"Good. Keep them there. We've secured the perimeter."
"This is gonna be a long night bros. Get comfy."
Several long, silent minutes went by.
"I Renamed my iPod The Titanic, so when I plug it in, it says 'The Titanic is syncing.'"
"Mikey…this is serious."
"You're too serious bro. This is a cakewalk."
"Waste of our time is what it is."
"Raph, I've told you we have a vested interest in making this meeting go smooth. We need what's in that vault and this is our only chance to get close to it with the person who has access. We have to take advantage of the chaos."
"I don't care either way I'm just bored. You guys know we're not the only ones sneaking around here right?"
"We know Mikey. A lot of people have a lot of interest in this one way or the other."
"Did the CIA ask you to chime in on this Leo? FBI? Why are these other people here?"
"Ha ha. Common sense Raph."
"Leo's right guys. It's really important that this goes well."
"Suuuuure Donnie. If you say so."
"I count at least 4 other groups here watching. Two are solo. There is a reaaaaaally cute lady over on the west side. And she's aloooone."
"Focus Mikey."
"10-4 bro. Fun mode off."
Hours later Mikey shook his head violently back and forth in an effort to stay awake. He glanced at all the others, all holding their positions, bored out of his mind. The woman that had caught his attention earlier hadn't moved an inch. Her committment was impressive. In his head he imagined she was a highly trained government black ops official. Maybe she was hired by another government to make sure the meeting went smooth. Or maybe didn't. After hours of watching he'd invented an entire back stories for all the other covert operants. It wasn't until there was a sudden shift in the atmosphere that he narrowed his attention to his actual task.
"Something's happening"
"I don't see anything here. What is it?"
"I'm going to get closer."
"Roger that Mike. Let us know."
Mikey checked their counterparts, but none seemed to be on the alert to what he had heard. Perhaps he was being overly cautious or maybe he'd just heard an animal, but he didn't think so. He silently slipped closer to the main meeting area, where all the officials were still convened even though it was well past midnight. He peeked into a window that he had no business peeking into given the level of security, and saw the problem.
"Guys, we've got a breech. We've got a breech right now. Someone must have infiltrated the inside and is actively taking them all hostages. We have a red alert guys!"
He peeked in again. It appeared to be a very subtle operation. They weren't being violent or even threatening to the members beyond waving a gun at them. To be expected, he supposed, since the people in the room had a lot of leverage for their countries. They were very valuable commodities, and everyone knew it and probably expected it.
"No immediate danger guys. This is a long game play."
"On our way."
Mikey checked their counter-parts again. The woman seemed to have caught wind of the action. The others, not so much. Judging by her reactions though, she was likely in a simlar position to them - looking to keep things on track rather than interfere.
"I'm going in. We need someone on the inside."
"Be careful Mike."
"When has this charming personality not been able to win anyone over, even an terrorist? Come on, I know what people want to hear."
"Be careful."
**********************
"Hey there!"
He immediately found the barre of a gun pointed at his nose. He'd easily snuck in, and right up the guy. He wasn't talkative though, so Mikey did it for him.
"I can imagine you have quite the grand scheme planned here. You're not the only one but I'm sure you know that. Or maybe all of them" he waved his finger around "are part of your little operation. I don't really care to be honest."
The man, clearly caught off guard enough by what he was to not immediately pull the trigger, just stared at him so he continued.
"So, I think we can help."
"We don't need any help, who the fuck are you?"
"Doesn't matter nearly as much as what I am. I'm not interested in any of this. Don't care about money, any of these guys, except one that we need just for a quick conversation. This was an opportunity for us to get what we want and I think that makes it important to us that you succeed, to keep us as much under the radar as possible."
"I have no idea who or what you are but I am not looking for help. We have planned this for over 6 months."
"Oh, good for you! We just got wind of this thing a couple of weeks ago."
The man cocked his gun, still pointed at his face.
"That is a very small gun for all this isn't it? Your people must be massively armed outside this room. You know, I know you want to pull the trigger to get rid of me, so go ahead and try."
"What, are you bullet proof?" His voice betrayed his unease.
"Maybe. Maybe not. Never know until you . . ."
It was only a split second, but Mikey eaily caught the slight tension in his finger and smoothly grabbed his arms to disarm him, flipped the gun around and holding it to his forehead.
"We are way better at this than any of you. We could easily take out your whole team and no one would even know what happened and you'd be left here high and dry. That wouldn't be very wise of you considering I doubt this little thing will work for very long."
He spin the gun on his finger and grabbed it by the barrel, handle toward the terrorist for the taking. He took it, desperately trying to quell his tremors.
"We are only interested in something else at this facility, but we need access through this room. You ignore us, and you'll get the benefit of us on the outside along with your own people, making sure no one is the wiser."
The man slowly nodded. The confrontation had been out of nowhere. His weapon had been taken and returned with an expert ease. His team on the outside hadn't intervened. There really wasn't a choice.
*************************(
We're in guys. I don't know what their plan or reason is, but they will let us move around freely to figure it out.
"How did you…?"
"I lied Leo. I made up some shit about helping them and proved we aren't to be messed with. What else is there to do?''
"Mikey, you really need to consult the rest of us before you pull stunts like that."
"10-4 fearless."
**********************?
"Hi!"
The woman flinched in surprise, but not by much. "Who are you? What do you want?"
"Same as you, I think. When I saw you come in here I took the chance. I think we have a mutal interest in usurping this little unatuhorized get together."
"I'm tasked with making sure this goes smooth, and it's not. This is not a game, the most powerful people in the world are in there."
"Obviously."
"What exactly are you suggesting?"
"Truce? None of us want this little swaray to go wrong."
"I have a job to do and I don't need help."
"REAALLLYYY?"
"Really."
Mikey hummed. "Ok so the fact that I already went in there and got to know our guy, means nothing? In fact, he said the same thing. They don't need help either."
"I know. I saw."
"So Mr. Terrorist who thinks he can take all these super important wierdos hostage? He's cool with me, thinks I'm on his side. Means nothing to you?
"No, I mean…yes. But no. For all I know you're with them, even with that stunt you pulled."
Mikey thought about his approach for a moment. "So, Not even a little surprised to see a walking, talking, giant turtle? You're a tough nut to crack."
She looked over at him, taking in him in his entirety before returning to the scope in her rifle with no reaction. "I hadn't noticed."
Mikey narrowed his eyes at her, then smirked. "Wow, I dont know if should take that as a compliment or an insult. But sure. You didn't notice. Look, I've got a free ticket in and out of there which is what we need, but we can't handle this without some outside help."
"We?"
"My team. Brothers. I'm the cute one by the way, and the funny one. There are three other teams here too. One is solo like you, the other with at least two. The one with four has to be in on this but they haven't moved yet."
For the first time she lowered her weapon and properly looked at him. "You're serious."
"As much as I can be, which isn't a lot."
"What do you want?"
"There something in that building that one of them has access to in the vault. Unrelated to any of this and I guarantee you woudn't care about it. We were gonna corner him at some point, away from the crowd, but this whole situation defintely puts a damper on our plan. What about you?"
She shrugged. "I don't ask questions other than 'how much'. I'm here to make sure this" she waved her hand in frustrtaion at the building "is successful."
"Well then it seems we really do have a common goal. We could care less about anything going on here, it was just convenient for us, but we don't particularly care for this kind of nonsense either so we'd be happy to help your cause. We're kinda good at this sort of thing."
"Ok. What do you need from me?"
He handed her a radio to tuck in her ear. "I need you to contact whatever police are around here, and help us coordinate getting them here unnoticed, and to stay out of the way until we can get these guys in a position where the good guys can pretend like they did all the work. As much as I think the world is missing out, it doesn't need to know we exist. You can take all the credit for yourself."
"Why me and not one of the others?"
He shrugged. "I dunno. You stood out. I like that."
She raised an eyebrow at him, but grinned. "Ok, I'll take this risk but I don't trust you. I'm Shadow. May I know the name of my mysterious suitor?"
"Michelangelo. Mikey for short. My brothers are Leo, Raphael and Donatello."
"I assume Leo is short for Leonardo?"
Mikey returned her grin. "I knew you were smart."
**************************
Mikey winced from the punch one of their foes landed and sat back against the wall. "Three down. You're pretty impressive. You know, for a human."
"And you're pretty cute. For a turtle."
"So, since we have a few minutes to get to know each other, who hired you?"
"Telling you would be a sure way to end up dead. Who hired you?"
"No one."
"That's suspicious as hell."
"Talk to my brothers about it. I'm just here."
"You just do what you're told?"
Mikey paused. "No. But I have no reason to question them about this particular gig. What about you?"
"Money speaks but I prefer the jobs that don't ask for assasination."
"Dark. You've got some nice moves by the way."
He caught a hint of a smile. "So do you."
"Don't I know it." He paused, listening. "Dude is suspicious, I'll be right back."
*******************************
"Everything is in place. Just a few more minutes."
"Yup. We couldn't have done this without you. I hope we get to collab again."
"I wouldn't mind."
"I wouldn't mind a collab with just the two of us."
"Are you asking me out? During a terrorist kidnapping?"
"Would you say yes?"
"I might not say no."
******************************
Shadow stood behind the four of them, surprised they hadn't kicked her out to conduct their business in private. "You did all this, for that?"
Mikey turned his attention back to her and smiled. "Surprised?"
"A little, yeah. Or a lot, actually. Who are you guys?"
"We're just a family who doen't care for crimes against humanity." Don answered, handing Leonardo a package. "Usually we keep it local but we've been known to expand our scope when the situation calls for it."
"Thank you sir." Mikey turned to an older businessman, dressed in light blue suit that was wrinkled from 24 hours held in captivity. "You did the right thing."
He nodded. "I will keep your secret, if you keep your end of the bargain."
"Oh we will. Let's move out." Raphael barked.
Mikey paused. "I'll be right there." He turned to Shadow. "I, um, you can wrap all this up if you want. We can't leave until tomorrow so we'll be around for a bit."
"I think I can handle this. Thanks for the help."
He hesitated again. "I really liked spending time with you" he said. "I want to see you again."
"I think I'd like to get to know you a bit better too."
He handed her a small scrap of paper. "Call me. We could start tonight."
*************************
"Thanks for picking up an unknown number."
"I would talk to a 100 scammers if it meant a chance one of them were you."
"I am offering a discount on an extended car warranty, but I'll need some very personal information first."
Mikey reached for her, but stopped midway. "Sorry. My brain catches on a bit slow sometimes."
She hesitated in her response, something he expected and wasn't immediately worried about.
He reached for her again, nudging her chin to look at him. "Would it freak you out if I said I think I want to be more than friends."
She blinked a few times as she mullled it over. "That's bold of you."
"I trust my instincts, and I pay attention. You aren't exactly turned off by me."
"What else are your instincts telling you about me? You have no idea who I really am."
"They're telling me it doesn't matter because I already know what I need to. And to kiss you. Right now."
"Are they?" A humored smile slowly blossomed across her face. "Right now?"
"If you'll let me. If you want to."
She blushed a little, and he wasn't prepared for his own reaction. He had never felt anything so strongly so quicky. "You're amazing Shadow. I just want to . . . see . . ."
She raised herself onto her toes and reached behind his neck to pull him down, inches from her lips. "You can see me just fine."
"I sure as hell can."
The contact from the kiss was all but electrifying and it lasted a long time. When they finally pulled away from each other, Shadow whispered breathlessly, eyes locked on his. "This place is a hotel you know."
"Yeah, it is."
"Shall we?"
"I already have a room. I would like to formally invite you to it."
"Presumptuous."
"I know."
Once they were in the room, nerves squashed by overwhelming desire, they stood face to face in front of the bed. He leaned in to kiss her again only to feel her hands on his shirt, tugging it upward and out of his belt so she could slide her hands underneath and over his plasteron.
He let out a soft sigh and stepped back. She pulled the black sweatshirt up and he finished the job, tossing it on the floor. He chuckled when she let out 'Oh, damn.' as she surveyed the mutant before her.
"What?"
"I think you need to stay like this for now. This is a good look for you."
"Is it?" he grinned and went in for another kiss as he returned the favor by pulling down her pants. Stepping out of them and kicking them to the side, she pulled off her own shirt and went for his belt while he attached himself to her neck.
"Fuck" he whispered.
Shadow paused. "Have you, ever? Done this?"
"Been so incredibly and immediately attracted to someone that I won't need to show you where the keys are to the door? Can't say I have. The sex thing? More or less."
"What?" She grinned up at him in confusion before pulling back the waistband of his pants to peek inside to see his erection starting to buldge through his plasteron. "Oh. . . well then. Lucky me. I think that's a better look than this one." She hummed, looking back up at him, and slowly ran her fingers over his shoulders and forearms. "Barely though. You really are attractive, you know."
He pulled her against his chest. "I don't think I've ever been described that way but I think I like it. So much better than 'aaahhh a monster!'"
His light hearted comment seemed to elicit something in her. She purposefully reached up and took his head between her hands and met his eyes. "You are gorgeous. And you are kind and amazing in every way."
"Careful." His voice wavered and his expression turned into a mix of pain and joy."You're going to make me think I might actually be right about how hot and great I am."
As though she could see right into his soul, she pushed up and lighty kissed him. "You are right. And I think I've seen what I need to see too."
Mikey shuddered when her fingertips trailed back down his neck. His equally gently trail of fingertips led him up her side and over the top of her right breast, then up along her neck. She saved him the trouble of unhooking her bra and it was quickly discarded to the side. He grinned at her, then laughed at her squeak of surprise when he slid his hands under her thighs and picked her up. He lifted her high enough that he was face to face with her chest and took a nipple into his mouth.
"Not wasting any time are you?" she gasped.
He enjoyed himself for another minute before pulling away with a faint pop to rest his chin between her breasts and look up at her.
"No" he beamed up at her. "But I'm a long term kind of guy. This is just that first time baby. I want a taste of you now, hard and fast and delicious, but in a couple hours I am going to get to know you a whole lot more intimately. Slowly."
She hummed eagerly, squeezing her fingernails into his bicep. "I like the sound of that."
"We have all the time in the world, Shadow."

Top 10 Films
Thank you for the tag, @onigiri-dorkk! I've been tagged in a number of challenge posts, and I will try to get to them soon ahah 😅
This was supposed to be a discussion of films but then again, I managed to find AOT/SNK and RivaMika parallels while going through this list 😂
This challenge has been fun and it was hard to pick only 10, let alone rank them! But for the sake of the game, I tried 😌
10. The King and I (1999)
Tumblr media
A musical animated adaptation of a Siamese (now called Thai) King who hires an English schoolteacher to have his country learn western modern ways. It was very amusing and enjoyable that the villain and accomplice here are written as comedic. And the added young love story between the crown prince and the servant girl is endearing. And I'm actually fond of forbidden love tropes ahaha. Plus the musical scenes are fun and brilliant! A great family movie! 🥰
9. Troy (2004)
Tumblr media
A story focusing on the Trojan war and the heroes in it. I've always enjoyed historical and legend-type movies as they give a glimpse of life in ancient times. I appreciate Achilles (Brad Pitt) and Hector (Eric Bana) in the movie so much that I included them in my AMV tribute to heroes and legends. The Iliad, which is the battle between Achilles and Hector, is one of my favorite legendary fights. Plus one of Achilles' last scenes and the line, "You gave me peace, in a lifetime of war." is so heartwarming. And now that I think of it, it's something that Levi could say to a certain special someone during post-war. 😏
8. Unknown (2011)
Tumblr media
An action-thriller revolving around seeking the truth, hence the title. Liam Neeson always delivers when it comes to action and suspense-filled scenes (plus he is the namesake of my Ackerchild OC 😌). The story progression will keep you on the edge of your seat and leave you wondering until the plot twist turns into an answer with a shocking revelation. His character is also badass, brooding, and serious, while also suffering from injury and trauma. Reminds me too much of a certain someone in SnK. 😄 Plus the way that the two main characters develop from reluctantly working together to understanding and caring for each other is just *screams in RivaMika vibes*
7. Brother Bear (2003)
Tumblr media
A story about literally walking in another's footsteps to learn a valuable lesson by seeing the other's point of view. It showcases brotherly and familial love in a lighthearted adventure. Watching the movie has a significant and special meaning to me for personal reasons. The plot twist is absolutely heart-wrenching and beautifully executed. Plus the original soundtracks gave me chills, were perfect for each and every exhilarating scene, and hold the rare honor of making me cry. 😭
6. Taken (2008)
Tumblr media
Another one of Liam Neeson's action-packed movies. This revolves around the rescue of his character's daughter from human trafficking. As always, his character is badass, brooding, and serious. Some daddy issues, wherein his character struggles with fatherhood to a growing teenage girl. Fatherly love 💖 and gotta love the brilliance of how he tracks down his daughter and saves her. His style and strategies blew my mind, it's amazing! Plus that line in the GIF is iconic!
5. Entrapment (1999)
Tumblr media
A story of two thieves, skillful in their own ways, working together to steal an ancient artifact. I love how they came up with brilliant spy-like strategies and synced together to accomplish the task. Recollecting this reminded me as well of @chaosisbeauty23's "Are you in?" two-shot spy story. It gave me similar vibes. Sean Connery's character trained Catherine Zeta-Jones' character, they had trust issues and conflicts, and they grew close through the duration of the preparation until they eventually got to trust each other enough to continue working together. Plus the age difference! Rings a bell? *screams again in RivaMika vibes*
4. Kiss of the Dragon (2001)
Tumblr media
A story of a cop helping to crack a major drug ring and ending up having to save a prostitute and her daughter to ultimately resolve it. I guess I have always been fond of unexpectedly-working-together and damsel-in-distress tropes, and this movie has two of those tropes in it! 😂 Recollecting this reminded me of @nuri148's "Not a Pirate" where Mikasa has a child. I love the chemistry between Jet Li and Bridget Fonda here, you can feel the tension and awkwardness ahaha. Plus the height difference! *screams again and again in RivaMika vibes* ghad seriously why am I associating these films I watched years ago with the current RM fics I've read bahaha 😂😅
3. Con Air (1997)
Tumblr media
A story of an ex-convict trying to get home to his family after he's been finally freed. I always go soft whenever strong, badass, brooding guys show tenderness and affection with regard to their families or the people they care for. Levi Ackerman as a father, anyone? 😌 This story hits with both the action and the feels. Plus the "How do I live without you?" performed by Trisha Yearwood is just *chef's kiss*
2. Brave (2012)
Tumblr media
A story of a princess struggling with life as a royal and trying to find her own path. Merida is my favorite Disney princess and I find her relatable in ways. I enjoyed the adventurous-type songs here as well. I absolutely love her unconventional and strong character which deviates from the typical dainty and girly princesses. She's spirited, stubborn, and won't take any BS 😂 Plus she's great with a sword!
1. The One (2001)
Tumblr media
And finally at the top 1 spot is coincidentally "The One" released in 2001 bahaha 😂 another one of Jet Li's action-packed movies which I love. And there are two Jet Lis in here ahaha. The story revolves around Yulaw (Jet Li) traveling across the multiverse hunting down and killing all his counterparts or other selves until only two of them are left. With each counterpart killed in every universe, the energy and power get divided between the remaining surviving counterparts resulting in them having increased strength, intelligence, and speed. I've mentioned this in a post before that this is similar to how Levi's and Mikasa's superhuman powers came to be.
I absolutely love the plot and story progression in this sci-fi setup, which makes you wonder, what if we actually have alternate personas in other universes (and we just don't know about it because there are people who make sure that we don't know in order to ensure peace and balance)? Plus Jason Statham's character as an ally here was unexpectedly funny!
I also appreciate the romance factor in the movie in the sense that, it is shown as trust, comfort, and care. Doesn't need to have all the kissy scenes or so to show genuine love. And one of Jet Li's character's lines about his love here is just 💖
Jet Li always delivers as well when it comes to action and suspense-filled scenes. Plus just look at the parallels below (The One vs AOT S3):
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Using a dead person as a shield then obliterates everyone afterward.
Jet Li's characters in movies are usually brooding, badass, serious, and aloof from people. Plus he is charmingly handsome and rather short in stature IRL too! Yep, Jet Li is a real-life Levi Ackerman 🤣😌
I swear I watched all of these way before I even encountered Attack on Titan. I didn't mean for this to be too long and to include much RivaMika and AOT, but it was fun recollecting the movies and then associating them with my brain rot 😂
Now that I have this list, I realize I tend to gravitate towards action movies and familial ones. Plus most of these movies have that one badass, brooding, serious guy who is insanely skilled and strong, and has a reputation but also soft for their loved ones. Geez I already have a type way before Levi Ackerman bahaha 😂🥰😌
None of these movies are focused on romance but the couple GIFs are intentional bahaha 😏
Tagging: No one, no pressure. 😅

oh boy. it got worse!
you know how i made a post complaining that people were constantly bashing bell's hells and treating the mighty nein like they're literally perfect? well, somebody decided to make a giant post comparing them again... and i will just say that it's full of probably the most vile backhanded compliments i've seen in a goddamn while.
i won't say anything i already said in my previous post about it because frankly it's just more of the same stuff, but there's one noticeable event that's occurred since i've made that post.
how are you really going to look at last episode and still be on your goddamn high horse about how ~perfect~ the mighty nein are and that bell's hells are still a bunch of unstable powderkegs when they'd been so in-sync that they finished off a clone of ludinus and a handful of guards in less than 10 turns while watching out for each other the whole time? how can you accuse ashton of being a "power hungry poser" when it's clear they're trying to grapple with trying to save the world and figuring out who they are at the same time? i hope matt kills caleb's new cat.

here's an irl fic i tried to write for a college au LMAOOO first and only time i've ever tried to write irl. hated it 0/10 but the writing is pretty at least !
He and Sapnap are two sides of the same coin, so in sync with each other that it can be unsettling to watch. They grow up together, going from children uncertain in their own bodies and growing into themselves. Dream watches Sapnap grow taller - watches his confidence increase in leaps and bounds and watches the way he will do anything for the things and people he likes. Soccer, games, girls, his friends, Sapnap loves casually and tightly, like he’s got all the time in the world to do so.
Sapnap watches Dream fall apart and put himself back together more than once, and watches him begin to mark his place into the world, etching out a place to dig his heels into and scream into the unknown this is me, this is who I am, look at what I’ll do. They both know Dream is going to be great one day: Dream only begins to realise it after his friend, his brother in all but blood, in all but one thing - Dream has never learned to love casually. He loves hard and fast and falls head over heels with his hobbies, his friends, his lovers, or he doesn’t love at all. There is no such thing as laid-back in Dream’s vocabulary, and everyone who knows him knows it. 
He and Sapnap are each other’s worlds for the longest time, inseparable and joined at the hip - they’re a two for one package within the first year they meet, when they were ten and short and soft, and that bond only changes as they get over. Sapnap is his right hand man, his best friend, his everything; Bad and Ant are there too, stars to Dream’s planet, and the four of them coexist alongside each other throughout the majority of middle school, DreamandSapnapandBadandAnt, the four of them against the world, free and content with each other and then George comes along.
And then George comes along.

Since you're a (somewhat ironic) Ben 10 fan, could I ask if you have any favorite characters/aliens?
Let me start out with this: my love for Ben 10 is wholly serious. The multiple series in their entirety might be my favorite children's cartoon at this point, it wasn't until the past few years that I remembered just how thoroughly obsessed I was with it growing up only to then spend years on end never giving it a second thought. This is entirely thanks to The Ink Tank over on YouTube, which has sort of become the central hub for Ben 10 fans all over the Internet. The ironic part comes in with the fact that Ben 10, nor Alien Force or Ultimate Alien or Omniverse, were really GREAT shows. I'm glad people like the Blind Wave crew or whomever are watching it for the first time and enjoying it, but I seriously could not look at another person and tell yeah this is something you should dedicate some time to.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
For favorite aliens, amongst the classic roster, the ones I immediately fell for when I was 7 and the series debuted were Wildmutt and Ripjaws. They really sold that, yes, Ben is turning into other species and not dedicated "superheroes" with power sets which was something that got lost in the shuffle down the line (I got reminded recently that Gwen tells Ben "there's got to be SOMETHING Jurryrig can do" as if aliens actually do have unique powers and shit.) The original Ben 10 was still at the end of the era wherein "gross out" was still a thing in cartoons and that's well expressed in the show's aesthetic; Ben turns into organisms that are "slimy, freaky, fast, and strong." As soon as you get to Alien Force all of Ben's arsenal is supposed to be cool and have this mystique about them, so Swampfire (smells bad), Goop (slime alien), and Big Chill (bug alien) don't have the same mild "gross factor" that they could have in the original series.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Though now my favorite of the original 10 is definitely Ghostfreak. I don't really care for Ghostfreak actually being Zy'Skarr even though every strand of DNA containing an ectoneurite's consciousness is a great concept. I just like Ben being able to turn into an alien that's also a full-on ghost: can turn invisible, phase through solid matter, float, and his eye moves around his body in the black grooves!
I'm kind of out of sync with what a lot of Ben 10 fans consider their favorites from the classic series, kind of just now warming up to XLR8 and DiamondHead, loving Cannonbolt, WayBig was always great, etc.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I just knocked Big Chill a moment ago but honestly Big Chill is great. Freezing bipedal moth with fold-up wings that can resist extreme temperatures. Of the Alien Force 10 I originally loved Humongousaur because dinosaur but now it's like, yeah Ben used him way too much. Big Chill's Ultimate form is alright, like everyone I'm not entirely sure how it works ("fire so cold it burns...") but extremely large blasts of plasma energy that quickly turn into chunks of ice are a nice visual that I don't think I've seen anywhere else. Alien X I feel like I have to comment on just because Alien X takes up pretty much all the breathing room amongst fans discussing the series just because when you have an alien that can is completely immortal and indestructible and can alter any aspect of reality with but a thought (with a huge * next to that), it's inevitable, though personally I wish he did get a bit more use.
Tumblr media
Best Ultimate? Ultimate Echo-Echo.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ben 10 mostly taps into the same frenzy as Pokémon does, so having something like Ultimate transformations is kind of superfluous but I'll be damned if I'm not a sucker for some Ultimates. You're telling me now Ben can become a more powerful weaponized version of aliens? How can you not love that. They left a lot to be desired in execution however with rarely a fight scene feeling like it required the use of one, but Ultimate Echo-Echo was a consistent exception where it seemed like shit just got real everytime he showed up and did things that Echo-Echo just wasn't capable of like, uh, hovering and being able to fire off sound blasts that could temporarily restrain a nuclear explosion.

Artist/animator brain telling me to pick apart each episode for subtle differences in comparison to the show as a whole
What seems like it could be on model and what feels like it was pushing boundaries to developing a semi-new style for the anime
Rant under cut bc hi I do this a lot in my head,, and I could go through each episode and pick them apart but I've got e 17 on the brain so we'll stick with that for now and maybe I'll check out the older ones later
I only bring it up now bc,, well I didn't want to before
In e 17 (since it's the one freshest in my brain) the art differences I notice are purely in the chibi style, and minorly in the closer shots of characters
Tumblr media
This shot specifically feels like it belongs to a different show! But still suuper super cute all the same!
And we go back to something more fitting with the other similar style shots from previous episodes! Not to say that it's all and all the same style every time, but again the differences are subtle and you have to look very closely to even say "huh, that's a bit different!"
I also noticed that usually they don't skip out of drawing fingernails? which sure most animes dont but it feels different here? If that makes sense,,
Tumblr media
They really upped their detail game compared to other episodes! all the little things that pain me to even think about doing as an animator! The work put into some of these shots is super impressive! They even shaded the fake mole?? Come on!! The idea of doing what they've down with these shots makes me tired,, kudos to the artists for having the nerve
The fingernails stand out the most to me bc there is so much detail in them!
Tumblr media
From the cuticle to the beautiful lighting and shading when she was applying make up to his face (I don't have a gift sorryyy 😣)
And we already know the eyes are beautiful, but my favorite attention to detail is Jinshi's eyes. Maomao never fails to comment on his beauty, and artistically it shows as much, emphasizing it to no end really, but he's so subtly feminine that I find myself studying his eyes quite a bit! His long eyelashes really draw you in...
Tumblr media
You can see they dulled it down a little, for his Jinka disguise, but even then he's got such gentle eyes that could easily be mistaken for a woman's if he were to hide his face :) (looking at you Hunting arc, missed a chance! I'll tell you!)
Tumblr media
Maomao's expressions in this episode really take the cake too LOL
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
There's no shortage of good maomao faces, especially not here >:)
As each new episode releases I'm just soooo enamored with how steady the improvement is! Artists finding their rhythm with the characters and sprinkling little things here and there that can go unnoticed but definitely enhance a shot! It's amazing!
And it brings me to talk about e4 which yes I agree is gorgeous animated, but im someone who prefers consistency rather than quality in my animated shows
(quality is good yes but to go from very fluid to standard fluid is jarring to say in the least)
I adore the fluidity in e4, obsessed with it. I was under the impression that an entirely different director + team was in charge (I wasn't wrong abt the director)
My favorite bits have to be the expressions,
Tumblr media Tumblr media
And how each movement feels less like a show and more like a movie, like we got a spontaneous budget increase for this episode alone!
Lip syncing too, REALLY on point! I love angry Maomao and I'm a sucker for lip syncing any time!! When she was scolding Lihua's lady in waiting, the animators really hit every keyframe on the nose! (generally makes e4 dub a bit of a hassle for me to watch) I rewatch the sequence again and again because of how well done it is :) a spectacular moment indeed
Another episode with really fluid moments is episode 10, I think 🤔 when she confronts Lady Lishu about Fengming. The entire scene is wonderfully done, with Lishu's expressions and her ladies-in-waiting being excited to talk to Jinshi :) all things I gladly pay attention to
All in all the show has a gorgeous art direction 😊 I hope they continue to enhance it little by little with subtle things like everything i mentioned above
Makes an artist's heart flutter thinking about the dedication and care put into its production
