No Regrets
Daily Writing Challenge by @ sdavid09  -  Prompt #8:
Prompt: What is your character’s greatest regret?
Pairing: Tony Stark x reader
Author’s note: I already kinda wrote a fic about Tony’s regrets? Also, I really wanted to write something happier than all the ideas that came to my mind when I read the prompt, sooo... Here is some sugar-daddy!Tony AU :)
Warnings: use of foul language, sex scenes, not very Steve Rogers friendly 
MASTERLIST
__________________________________________________________
No Regrets
People say that he should be ashamed of himself, dating a girl half his age. They say that it’s simply disgusting, an old man like him sleeping with such a young girl. He probably makes her do things she doesn’t want to do, they say. He will use her, taint her and leave like a garbage for a younger, prettier. And she will be alone, broken.
*
It happens during one of the most boring galas Tony has ever attended. He shook hands with every rich person there, exchanged pleasantries armed with hidden edges and spikes and is now making his usual rounds. He keeps looking for Y/N, who disappeared a few minutes ago and hasn’t reappeared yet. Jealousy, which he is not sure he even should feel, burns in his chest, consuming him. There are many younger, more handsome men here, who would not be opposed to entering this sort of relationship with her that Tony himself has. He wouldn’t be surprised...
There is a hand on his arm and Y/N sways gently towards him, her lips curved into an alluring smile. She puts something in his buttonhole while she pretends to smooth over his suit and then kisses his cheek and leaves him again, having apparently seen somebody she recognizes.  
Tony puts his hand into his buttonhole and picks up some piece of material. For a moment he doesn’t understand, the gears in his head for once dead, still. Then the realization dawns on him and the long-forgotten feeling of a hot blush crawling up his face surprises him, as he whips his head towards her.  
She is looking at him over her shoulder, still walking towards what he can see is a ‘staff only’ room, a flirtatious smile on her sinful lips. His feet start walking towards her without his conscious agreement and in his hand he clutches a pair of red-and-gold panties...
***
People say that she is a slut, dating him only for his money. “A whore”, mutter the shocked housewives, hungrily watching TV shows about scandals and rumours from Hollywood. “How can he think she’s with him for anything else, she probably demands money after every night they spend together.”
*
She doesn’t like Steve Rogers much, even though many consider him a paragon of virtue. She rarely stays in the same room as he, even more rarely talks with him. She tries to stay out of his way as much as she can. She eyes him distrustfully when he argues with Tony, huffs with displeasure when he asks for updates on his uniform and ostentatiously leaves  when he tries to talk with her about her relationship with Stark.  
But when Steve during one of the outings, in full WWII uniform and in his Captain America voice, asks what Tony without his suit is, she SNAPS and slaps him across the face, spitting out a speech about deserts, needles and cacti. Both Steve and Tony are shocked, the soldier more at the force of the hit and Tony... Tony is surprised that she would think to defend him at all. So much that he misses the apology Steve mutters quietly and the appreciative glances Natasha keeps giving Y/N.  
Y/N gives Steve one more glare, catches Tony by his arm and takes him home and to the workshop, where she spends the next few hours playing with DUM-e and watching Tony create new marvels, seemingly out of nothing.
*
He doesn’t regret this. Not when she is laying on the bed, bound by her wrists to the headboard, clad only in the dark red lingerie he bought specially for this. She is ready for him, panting and moaning slightly, her thighs rubbing together to relieve some of the pressure, her body arching beautifully. He licks his lips. He wants to tear every strap of the red material from her body, kiss the naked expanse of her skin and tease her mercilessly until she is begging him to fuck her at least twice.
She will not like it, him tearing off the gift he just gave her. She doesn’t like when he destroys her clothes, even though she secretly thinks it so very hot. The practical part of her mind always fights desperately against the more animal one - the one that wants to be claimed, possessed and marked at this very moment. 
Her eyes are half-lidded, clouded with desire when she looks at him and moans, causing all his self-resolve to crumble away.  
He’ll buy her another set...

Tale Teller’s Daily Writing Challenge
This is for @sdavid09‘s Tale Teller’s Daily Writing Challenge.
Day 18 Prompt:   Someone has caught your character’s eye...they may be in love!  Who has captured their eye and how are they coping?
Title:  “Attached”
Food, water, maybe rest.  Sirius wasn’t exactly sure just how much longer he could keep going.  He had already seen Harry, but now he needed to head to Hogwarts.  But he wasn’t going to get there unless he found a place to rest.  Which was hard when his face was in the papers.  But sleep.  Sleep was needed.  Maybe he could rest in this alley.  Yeah, rest.
“Hey there puppy dog, this isn’t a good place for you.”  Sirius opened his eyes slowly.  A woman with brown hair was crouched down in front of him.  Shit.
“Come here, I have some food at my place.  It’s okay, we can find your owner.”  Sirius tried to get to his feet to back away, but something about her just radiated safety.  He slowly started to walk forward, remembering to act like a scared dog.  
“That’s right buddy, come here.  I can get you a better bed than the concrete.”  Sirius placed his nose in her hand, sniffing it.  She smelled like a hospital, with hints of lavender underneath.  She was probably non-magical, which would be safe.  Yeah, he could rest there for awhile before running away.
She started stroking his head and down his sides.  “Poor boy, you’re skin and bones.  Yeah, let’s get you a good meal.”  She then stood up motioned for Sirius to follow her.  He could stay in the alley, or stay with a nice lady for a week.  Honestly, nice lady wins every time as he really was skin and bones.
He followed her down the street to a house that had some plants in front of it.  She unlocked the door and motioned for Sirius to follow her inside.  The woman immediately went into the kitchen to get a bowl where she filled it with water.  She sang under her breath as she sat the bowl down next to Sirius.  He started drinking and before he knew it, the bowl was empty.  Must have been thirstier than he thought.
While he was drinking, the woman had started heating up what smelled like chicken and rice.  Sirius couldn’t help but whine because it smelled so good.  She laughed, patted him on the head and put it in another bowl.  Sirius scarfed it down as soon as it was on the floor.  
“Easy buddy, you seem like you haven’t eaten in days.  Gotta take it slow otherwise you’re gonna get sick.  Think maybe you’ll let me give you a bath.”  Sirius looked at her with the most pitiful expression.  He could figure a way to give himself a bath when she was asleep thank you very much.
“Sorry buddy, but you stink.”  Well, maybe he did stink, but that didn’t give her the right to give him a bath.  But if he wanted to stay here longer, he needed to be a good house guest, and that meant getting a bath.
The bath itself was embarrassing and he couldn’t help but try and shake out his coat when he was soaked.  That brought a laugh to the woman, who almost sounded like she hadn’t laughed in a long time.  Maybe he could make her smile more.  Her face looked like it was meant for smiling.
Wait, no, no getting attached.  He had to go to Hogwarts soon.  That meant no attachments as he needed to get the rat.
But later that night when she laid out some pillows and blankets for him to sleep on, he couldn’t help but think that he was probably going to break her heart when he left.

April Fool’s Day
Tumblr media
A/N: This is for Tale Teller’s Daily Writing Challenge 2019. It starts in May, but this is an early Bonus Prompt. What is the most epic/funniest prank your character ever pulled off or had pulled on them?
Summary: James, you, and the rest of the Marauders reminisce on past pranks
Paring: James Potter x reader
Warnings: none
Word Count: 914
You, James, Sirius, and Remus sat around the table at the Order of The Phoenix headquarters reminiscing about good times. While things seemed to be going well in the war to stop Voldemort things weren’t exactly what one would call happy. Wanting to turn the mood around James thought it would be a good idea to talk about the past, when you were in school, and all of you were having the time of your lives.
“Hey  love you remember that time in 7th year when you managed to pull a prank on me and Sirius? Neither of us saw it coming at all,” James said.
You laughed softly and nodded. “Yeah, I remember. It took me weeks to put that together and I was really proud of it.”
Pranks were something the Marauders, mostly James Potter and Sirius Black, were known for. They took pride in not only pulling them off, but getting away with them by using their special map to get away before the professors caught them. But this time it was going to be James and possibly Sirius getting pranked. You had been thinking about it for weeks. Your boyfriend James had managed to get you every year since you started dating in 4th year. It was now 7th year and you wanted to get him back. While pranking wasn’t your forte you had been working on this for weeks. The muggle holiday, April Fool’s was upon you and you were going to get James good.
That morning at breakfast you acted like you always did with James. You kissed his cheek, laughed at his and Sirius goofing off and pretended you weren’t up to anything at all. You did everything in your power not to give away what you planned. “Good morning beautiful how did you sleep?” James asked as he took a seat next to you.
You kissed his cheek and laid your head on his shoulder. “I slept great. How ‘bout you?”
“Perfect. Me and Sirius have quite a few pranks planned for the day. It’s going to be a lot of fun isn’t it padfoot?”
“Oh definitely. We have a great one planned for Snivelus.”
You rolled your eyes at the horrid nickname they had for Severus Snape. “I’m sure it will be,” you said softly as you watched James and Sirius pick up their juice and take a drink. You managed to hide your smile behind your own glass knowing that now your prank would be set in motion. Of course Remus managed to notice the smile and raised a brow. ‘Wait for it,’ you mouthed to him. You had slipped a transfiguration potion into the boys’ drinks and soon they would start to morph.
“My shirt is starting to feel kinda tight.” James rubbed at his chest not realizing that the problem was he was growing breasts.
Sirius frowned. “So is mine.”
You giggled and took  bite of toast. With a proud grin you watched as your boyfriend and his best friend turned into girls. They had pretty good sized breasts, James’ shaggy black hair had grown to reach his shoulders while Sirius’ came to his middle back, their lips were fuller, and their features were softer and much more feminine.
“James?” Sirius spoke in a much softer and slightly higher voice.
“Bloody hell padfoot, you’re a woman!” James then realized his voice was just as high. “Oh no. So am I.”
Sirius looked highly upset and confused. “How did this happen?”
“I don’t know. Someone must have cursed us or something.”
Your high pitched laughter rang high and loud. You held onto your stomach as you doubled up, shaking from laughing so hard. Tears were even pouring down your face from laughing so hard.
James turned to you and narrowed his eyes.
“My dear sweet beautiful love did you have something to do with this?”
Because of your laughter you couldn’t talk. All you could manage to do was nod in affirmative.
“Why? How could you?”
You took a deep breath and managed to calm yourself. “Because darling you prank me every year and you always manage to prank other people. I wanted to finally get you back for all the stunts you’ve pulled. This right here took week’s of planning, but neither of you suspected a thing when you picked up your drinks.”
James crossed his arms and pouted. It looked absolutely adorable with his soft, full lips. “Well change us back,” he whined.
“No can do. You’ll have to wait for it to wear off. Should happen sometime this afternoon I assure you.” You shrugged not feeling in the least bit sorry for finally pulling a prank on your troublemaking boyfriend.
James pulled you into his lap and kissed your temple. “It was so weird walking around as a girl all day. We had to borrow bras and looser fitting shirts to accommodate our new body parts. Oh and having to deal with such long hair. Honestly Sirius I still don’t know how you manage it.”
“It’s really not that hard.”
You nuzzle into James’ neck and kiss softly. “It really isn’t. You get used to it after awhile and you find ways to deal with it,” you said.
James hummed and squeezed your hip. “Yeah well we learned a valuable lesson that day. Don’t mess with you. You’re sneaky and conniving when you want to be.”
“That’s true, but you love me anyway.”
“Yes I do and I always will.”

2017 Wrap Up
Inspired by @castillon02​‘s post. Here we go. 
Life stuff: I feel like I belong in grad school and in my department now which is wonderful. I am also doing better at living on my own and being a real adult. I got myself a cat. I also did so much baking this year. 
Life goals: Continue learning how to adult properly. Keep applying for fellowships and grants. I also aim to be presenting at a conference in Jan 2019 so I am going to need to prepare for that. Oh and pass the quals.  
Fandom stuff: I am so honored to be an MI6 Cafe co-mod with Cas. It has been a blast designing fun challenges for the fandom and starting the workshop series. And I love love love all of you for hanging out on slack, in rabbit, and on discord and generally being amazing friends. 
Word count this year: 68,518 on ao3 plus  50,259 for NaNo. (Although ao3 might be counting some bleed over from last year.)
Favorite things I’ve created this year:  
Captured Moments - It was a fun challenge to write a spooky story in first person present so that it would feel like a campfire story. 
Felix and the Fortune Teller - Felix is such a great character and I love this fantasy AU universe.
TV Magic - I finished up this Merlin story that imagines an immortal Merlin working on the show about his life. I am 100k words into the sequel, well, prequel because it is canon era.
Writing feels: I did so much writing this year. I think I feel like the process of writing a story is good, I am in a good habit of writing nearly daily but also understanding when and for how long to give my brain a break. I won NaNoWriMo again and oh my gosh this fanfiction is now over 100k words and there is still so much to happen still. This is the epic story I have dreamed about writing since 2007. It’s not going to be a perfect story, but it has been so much fun to write so far. 
Writing goals for 2018:
Finish Twin Tales  Yeah this is that long one. I want to finish by the end of the year and start posting in 2019. 
Rewrite Restoring Faith @1amvengeance has been amazing at helping me make this into a truly great story and I want to get a real good next draft.
Continue learning As mentioned, Ven is helping me so much with improving this story which is really helping me to look at my writing differently. But also with Writing Excuses and our own Writing Workshops, I think this is going to be a year of learning. 
Write more non-fanfiction As much as I love it, I need to spend some time writing short things that are either original work or 90% OCs. Characterization is something I struggle with so removing the canon crutch will be good for me. 
Fingers crossed that I will be able to balance class with research with writing next year!

Barge in (change my life, honey)
Daily Writing Challenge by @sdavid09  -  Prompt #2:
Prompt: Sometimes, your character let’s their mind drift away to ‘what ifs’ and ‘if only’. Write your character living in one of those scenarios.
Pairing: Tony Stark/reader
MASTERLIST
_____________________________________________________
Barge in (change my life, honey)
Tony Stark doesn’t regret things. He is an inventor, creator, pioneer. He doesn’t look back, but bravely meets the burning gaze of the Future. Challenges it. Conquers it.  
He simply doesn’t have time think ‘what if’ and ‘if only’’.
Tony, on the other hand, regrets a lot of things.  
He regrets, that he became colder to his mother during his teenager days, partly blaming her for his father mistakes, partly wanting to show them that ‘Stark men are made of iron’ and that he doesn’t need emotions. He should have been telling her that he loved her every single day.  
He regrets, that he didn’t reel himself in after his parents’ death, that he trusted Obadiah and let his company turn into an illegal weapon seller. He should have closed that branch ages ago, turn his legacy into a green power like it is now and never, never allow it to become tainted with blood of the innocents.  
He regrets, that he can’t keep Spiderman safe when the kid flies through the city on his spiderweb, fighting petty crime and deserving churros. Initially, Tony wanted to wrap Peter in bubble wrap and keep him hidden in the workshop, but Y/N said that’s kind of illegal.
So, yes. Tony Stark doesn’t do ‘what ifs’, but Tony definitely does.  
Like right now.  
He is sitting in his workshop, surrounded with blue screens with complicated blueprints displayed on them, a screwdriver in his hand and a very sleepy super soldier in front of him. Ideas were buzzing in his head, begging to be unleashed and used in creating something magnificent. He smiled up at Bucky and took a sip of his cold coffee.  
- How would you like a mechanical saw hidden in your arm? Like in that movie Y/N made us watch last weekend? What was it... ‘Treasure Island’?
- Ugh, - groaned Bucky, tiredly rubbing his eyes. His body might be ready for an assignment at every hour of the day, thanks to torture and regime imposed on him by HYDRA, but his mind was lately rebelling, preferring sleep and rest to workouts and fatigue. - I believe it was called ‘Treasure Planet’.
- Right! Of course! - Tony exclaimed happily, rolling away on his chair. - A good movie, too. Highly innovative. Packed with ideas. Sooo, do you fancy being like this John Silver fella? You’d never be defenseless.
- I’m hardly ever defenseless.
- Humpf. Fine. But when something happens do not come here and complain. - Tony shoot him a smirk and then turned to the door. - Honey! You are awake!
- As are you, I see. - Y/N said, slightly amused. - Bucky, are you alright? I know you don’ like the early hours.
Bucky looked at her with appreciation and then, without a word, stood up and headed towards the door.  
- Where are you going, Bucky-bear? We aren’t finished yet!
- Yes, you are, Tony. You need sleep. Now. - Y/N said with in a firm voice. - You’ll play when you wake, I’m sure Buck will be thrilled to help you.  
Barnes snorted, but winked at Tony before leaving the room. Tony scoffed at his girlfriend, stood up and looked around his workshop. His eyes took in the mess this room was; coffee cups, spilled oil and bits of metal laying here and there. He also noticed little trinkets that littered the place; photos he took during the vacation in Paris last year, with Y/N smiling face and Bucky’s grumpy frown on them; the stupid knitted helmet Bucky made him (apparently, knitting was very relaxing for the fearsome, former Fist of HYDRA) and cards for the Father’s Day that Y/N painstakingly prepared for him with Dum-E, U and Jarvis.
Tony for a moment wondered, what would have happened if Y/N didn’t one day barge into his life, show him the lies he was surrounded with (along with making him help Barnes and forgiving him) and then making out of all those broken, lonely people a family ready to defend each other to death. 
He decided; he doesn’t want to know – there is no way he would ever regret this.

Tale Teller’s Daily Writing Challenge 2019
Tumblr media
I did a similar challenge last year and it went amazingly! So, I decided to do another one this year. Perhaps I will make it an annual thing? We shall see! ^^ 
This challenge is exactly as it sounds, it is a daily writing challenge. Each day, I will post a prompt for those who sign up for the challenge, and it is the goal of each participating writer to write a story for that prompt. It is the goal that by the last day of the challenge, writers will have a story for EACH story prompt for the month of May! Last year, the prompts contained a quote, song, genre, line of text, etc, but this year, I have created some different ones to really get you thinking and writing different aspects of your character! :D  
If you are feeling inspired, see the rules below on how to enter the writing challenge as well as how to participate, as they both have some information in them you will want to note going forward.  I will note, only one writer will get a certain character, no duplicates.  So you get that character all to yourself for the challenge!
I am doing sign-ups a month in advance for people to think about which characters they would like, as well as to give everyone a heads up, and I may do some early bonus prompts! :D  Be sure to read below for the details! I hope you will consider joining in! This is a great way to dive into a character, get to know them, or even have fun with a character you aren’t as familiar with! 
Remember: Prompts will begin on May 1st and end on May 31st!  The Master Post with all the stories and authors tagged will be posted June 1st! 
Rules:
Each writer will chose a character from one of the following fandoms: Supernatural, Hobbit/LOTR, Star Wars, Star Trek, Harry Potter, TMNT, Marvel, or Detroit: Become Human. This character must be the main subject of each writing prompt in some way. I hope this will allow writers to dive in and really get into one of their favorite characters. 
Once a character is chosen by a writer, it CAN NOT be chosen by another. 
Each story post must contain the tag #Tale Teller’s Daily Writing Challenge as well as tagging me, so I can read and reblog! 
Remember, you will have ONE CHARACTER assigned to you, and that character must be the main one in your stories. You are welcome to use any format, xreader xOC ships, any such things, but stick to your character. Of course, you will use other characters, but make sure your main focus is the one you selected. 
If you decide you you don’t want to participate after the challenge has started, just shoot me a message. I understand things happen and writing has to sit on the back burner, so don’t fret if this happens. I will still include the stories you did write on the Master Post! :D 
How to Enter/How to Participate:
All entries must be submitted via ASK. 
When you submit your entry, please identify the character you would like  and the blog username you will be posting under. It is important to identify this as I will tag writers in the daily prompt post each morning. 
I would recommend, as it would help the sign-ups go much more smoothly, to list your top 3-5 characters you would like to write for. This way, if your first option is already selected I can assign the next available one to you! As it is a first come, first choice availability, this will help things run much smoother. 
Each morning of the month, I will post a new prompt and tag you in that post.  You then can write a story using that prompt.  
Each writer needs to upkeep their own Challenge Master Post. Last year, I had massive linking issues with the number of stories, so I am asking that each writer make their own master post for the challenge. I am happy to show people how to do this. What this means is that when you post a new story, you will add it to your Master Post. I will then link that Master Post on the challenge Master Post that will be sent out on June 1st. That way, hopefully, we can get all the writers on one post this time!!! (Instead of the 5 or 6 it took last time XD) 
With that in mind, as soon as you make your Master Post for the challenge, please be sure to send it to me so I can link it! :D 
You don’t need to worry about posting EVERY SINGLE DAY, as long as you post all the stories before the end of the month, you can “win” the challenge! 
As I know it can be a challenge to post each day, so I am offering a special reward for those who participate in the challenge AND post all of their 31 stories in the month of May.  If you accomplish this task, when the challenge is over, I will write and send you (on Tumblr) a letter of thanks and appreciation from the character you wrote for! If you want to see how this worked last time, search #Tale Teller’s Writing Challenge on my blog. Quite a lot of people won last year! 
How to “Win”:
You will “win” the challenge if you are able to submit a story for EACH AND EVERY PROMPT for the month (excluding any bonus prompts). 
IF YOU WIN--You will get a hand written note (from me) as your character, thanking you for your dedication to them for 31 days and all you have done for them. (These will be posted as an image in Tumblr and you will be tagged in that post)
IF YOU DON’T WIN--Your stories will be linked on the master post to be shared with everyone. No worries, no fuss, but that also means no letter :(
I know it sounds crazy, but I hope that more than anything, if you join in, you will have fun and be inspired!!! Happy Writing!

The Greatest Distance Daily - FEAR
Tumblr media
Tag: @sdavid09 @walking-potter-davinci-games @sherala007
Everyone has that one secret fear. What is your character’s, and how do they cope when they have to face with it?
FEAR
“Bottles are in the fridge, you know how to heat them. I stocked up the diaper caddy, she naps at three. Riordan’s snacks are in the fridge. Dinner can go in the oven at five.” Piper issued the same directions again, though they had gone over them twice already.
“Yer sure ye have t’ go?” Bofur asked, for the eighth time that day. He had Tabbi over his shoulder, patting her back, hoping she would burp soon before she got a gas pain. He knew the answer, he knew she had to leave. And he hated it.
“You got this, hon. Rio’s sleeping over at his friend’s house, so it’s just one kid to keep an eye on. And she can’t even escape.” Piper assured him. “I won’t be long.”
“Five hours!” Bofur objected, “Seems quite long enough!” Never in his life had he been solely in charge of a baby. Not once. Not even of Bombur. “Yer gonna have yer phone, aye?” He asked, watching her nod, following her to the door. “Drive safe.” With one last kiss, she was out the door to a regional meeting for her company.
It was around two minutes after Piper’s truck pulled out of the driveway that Tabbi began to cry. He bounced and patted her, rubbed her back and hummed her favorite lullaby. Nothing changed the howls. Was he a poor father? No, babies cried. Babies cried a lot. He just had to listen, to find the source. “Ah, now, me little gem. Tell yer Da-Da,” he had adopted using the human word as Piper and Riordan did, “what’s wrong.”
Tabbi whimpered and whined, for only a second more before letting out a tiny belch, though Bofur was quite proud. Then she hiccuped and gummed on his shoulder.
“Ah! That’s me beautiful little lass!” Bofur rubbed her back soothingly, smiling. Maybe there was nothing to be afraid of after all. He snuggled her, kissing her face and laughing when his moustache made her smile and giggle. Cooing to her, he smiled when she got a firm grip on part of his beard. It hurt, but he’d gotten used to it by now. “Look’t ye, me strong wee lass! Such a cute little pebble!” Blowing raspberries on her cheeks, he soaked in all of the laughter his precious daughter let loose.
Many hours, a horrifying diaper, one long fuss, a full tummy, a loud belch (from each of them), and one peaceful nap later, Piper returned home. She hurried up the step, knowing she could trust her husband, but still worrying to a degree. But when she opened the door, she saw Bofur laying on the couch, their daughter sprawled happily on his bare chest. Her tiny fist was balled in his chest hair, and his large hand rest on her back lightly. Both were sleeping continently. Walking over, Piper leaned down to kiss Bofur’s head.
He stirred and smiled up at his One. “Amrâlimê!” He whispered. “Ye home, I… musta fell asleep too.”
“So how was it?” Piper asked, perching on the edge of the cushion.
Bofur looked down at the little one sleeping on his chest. He had been terrified that somehow, someway, he wouldn’t be able to care for her on his own. That he would be a failure as a father, not only in this, but in general. All of that washed away as he looked at the little pudgy cheek smooshed against him, and his daughter’s content sleeping face. He was fine. “It was great.”
Piper leaned down and kissed him, “Wonderful! Because the meeting is being continued tomorrow, I’m afraid. So you’ll have to do this again.”
Smiling, he nodded confidently, “Any time.”

Tale Teller’s Daily Writing Challenge
This is for @sdavid09‘s Tale Teller’s Daily Writing Challenge.
Day 31 Prompt:   FINALLY! The last day of the challenge! Tell us a time where your character tried something for the first time…and decided it would be the last time.
Title:  “Sushi”
Sirius wasn’t sure why he let Morgan talk him into sushi.  He wasn’t really in the mood, but she had a craving for ramen, so they went to a local joint that had ramen and sushi.
He ordered a variety plate while Morgan ordered her pork ramen with a miso broth.  When they brought out the plate, there was what looked like octopus on the plate.
Morgan giggled as he picked it up with chopsticks, as he wasn’t fully sure how to eat it.  “Just stick it in your mouth.  It’s not like it’s going to try to run off.”  Sirius glared at her before shoving it in his mouth and attempted to chew.
It was, well it was chewy.  And he could feel the different suction cups on the arms.  After five times trying to chew it, he spit it out into his napkin.  “Definitely not eating that again.  No octopus for me, no, no, no.”
“You sure Sirius?”  Morgan laughed at the glare he gave her.
“I’m a serious Sirius.  You can have my octopus.  I’m never touching that again.”

The First Morning
@sdavid09’s Daily Writing Challenge
Character: Fíli
Fandom/Series: The Hobbit
Tale Teller’s Daily Writing Challenge
Prompt #1
Today is the first day of the challenge! So, tell us one of your character’s favorite firsts.
——
The First Morning
Tumblr media
There have been many ‘firsts’ in Fíli’s life, some are good and some are bad. They all had an impact on his life in some way.
There was the first time he held his baby brother, the first time he forged his first weapon, his first training lesson, his first hunting trip, and so many other things.
Out of all of them, his favorite First was braiding his One’s hair.
He and Kíli had spent hours upon hours over many years designing and crafting beads and clasps with their symbols and markers. How they had practiced their braids and styles on each other until perfected, ready to be done when their One was finally found.
He remembers that first morning, the morning after their wedding. Waking to Mallory sleeping in his arms. He can recall the sleepy kisses and wandering hands, knows they woke Kíli up who joined him in pleasuring their Wife.
They eventually got up to wash and eat and (mostly) get dressed.
He can still feel the nervous excitement that he felt as they finally sat down to do their hair.
He vividly remembers pulling Mallory from Kíli’s grasp as he finished adding his braids into her hair. He thinks of her in between his legs, her back against his chest, his fingers gently running through her red curls. He recalls the giddy joyful feeling that bubbled inside of him as he began to braid her hair for the first time, braiding each braid that fell against his brothers own. Each one symbolizing that she was their wife, part of the royal family, and many other things.
He smiles at the memory of her hands in his own hair, Kíli’s larger hands wrapped around hers as he helps guide her in braiding Fíli’s hair.
He feels the rush of love recalling it all. Her soft voice as they talk, her hands in his as he helps her braid Kíli’s hair, their lips meeting again and again as the three fall back into bed together.
Even after all this time he stills feels all of those emotions every morning and every time he braids her hair, but nothing will be as powerful or wonderful as that first time.
