Notes: As cliche as it sounds, I’m a truly lover of music and love different genres. I love to be able to show different types of bands/ projects/ music that sometimes people might not even know exists. So this little fic is inspired by one of my favorite music projects EVER: LOVAGE (it has Mike Patton on it, so of course I would love it! The man has been my musician crush since I was 9 years old! And he’s amazing, so). Y’all know the drill loves,sorry for misspellings,english isn’t my first language (bla bla bla),check out my other stories if you’d like to(it would make your girl here very happy 😊) You can check them out on my Masterlist. Okay,now let’s get to the fun part, shall we? Hope you’ll enjoy 😉
Of course I’ve heard of them and of course they’ve caught my interest! The Reigns’s and Uso’s were one of the biggest gangsters families among the USA, who were responsible for the biggest robberies across the country.
The current rumors spreading around the neighborhood swore they were here, hiding from the authorities, in our small little town.
And I would give anything to meet one of them. As the daughter of a prostitute, my only fate was to follow my mother’s footsteps but I am more ambitious than that! The only way to prosper in life is to be completely feared. Be feared not respected as Machiavelli himself taught. And I know, for a fact that, that is completely true! Growing up in the red light neighborhood had proved to be quite the life lesson, actually. ‘Don’t trust the police’, ‘Make alliances with criminals’, ‘Trust no one’, ‘Don’t snitch’, ‘You never hear or see anything’, ‘Mind your own business’, ‘Don’t allow people to mind YOUR business’, ‘Show no emotions’, ‘Always be smarter than your enemies’, were a few of those rules. People think that, for a woman to be perfectly successful in the 1930’s she needs to be a trophy wife, nothing more than a beautiful face with zero brains and a pair of open legs to a rich husband. But they are wrong! You see, any woman can use her beauty and charm to manipulate and conquer whatever she wants, but she can only maintain that manipulation power if she’s smart enough. I’ve had the town mayor, Mr. Heyman, gift me a beautiful diamond crown (that originally was meant to be his wife’s birthday present) just with some charm and sweet nothings whispered to him. I didn’t needed to warm his bed for it, I just had to be smart enough to understand his weaknesses and say the right words! I know what I want, so I get it, and believe me when I say: I will have Roman Reigns all to myself.
Things were disappearing in my neighborhood
Once again somebody was up to no good
I saw that you were wanted, but not like I wanted you
And that's when I knew I had to be with you
And that's when I knew if I didn't, I'd be through
To end my grief I'd have to catch a thief
Your love was my relief my love is your release.
Ah! Mayor Heyman’s high society ‘charity gala balls’ (aka meet your husband’s new mistress), were the most futile yet amusing events of this town. I wasn’t a high society woman, economically speaking but again I’m good at saying the right things to the right people. So it’s no surprise to see my name in the mayor’s guest list.
I entry the big doors of the city hall wearing my most recently acquisition: an emerald green velvet dress (gifted by the Senator John), my high heels (Another gift from Mr. Smith, the banker) and my hand purse (from the all so lovely Mayor Heyman)...Speak of the Devil.
“Y/N” He greeted
“Oh, Mayor Heyman. What an honor” I smiled sweetly
“Believe me, it’s my honor, dear” He kisses my hand in an flirtatious way. And it’s a good thing I’m great at keeping my gag reflex in control.
“Oh please, I’m the one who has to thank you for always reminding little old me for your tremendously chic events. I can’t express my gratitude enough for you always having so much compassion in your heart!” I scoot closer to him, slightly fixing his tie “It is such a shame that you’re a married man, mayor Heyman, I would have loved to be your wife” I whispered softly
He gulped “I can change that” He smirked
“Oh please, mayor!” I stepped back with a offended look on my face “As a Christian woman, I cannot support divorce! That is some type of thinking that will lead us directly back to sodom and gomorrah! I can’t believe you just said that to me” I make the sign of the cross
“I am so sorry, Y/N it was not my intention-“
“I am not a prostitute or a home wrecker, mayor Heyman! I am a woman devoted to the Lord and I will not accept or tolerate that type of language or insinuations towards me!”
“I am deeply sorry Y/N, I truly am! Let me make it up to you. Here” He fastly signed a blank check “Please take this”
“I can’t” I whisper, pretending embarrassment
“Please, Y/N! It’s the least I can do. You can use it for whatever you want, no matter the price. I could never offend you! You’re such an amazing woman. Please accept it!” His pleading eyes let me know I had him hooked.
I ‘reluctantly’ accepted “Well, thank you, so much” I murmur with tears upon my eyes
“No, I’m the one who has to thank you, for dismissing my ogre behavior” He smiled “I’ll leave you now, so you can fix your makeup”
“Thank you, mayor Heyman”
Once he’s out of my sight, I can drop the naïve girl routine.
“Impressive” A deep male voice spoke from behind me
When I turn around, my knees almost failed me... it was him.
“I beg your pardon?” I ask
“The little stunt you just did with the mayor, was truly impressive. I swear that if I didn’t saw you get out of your naïve christian woman character I would have one hundred percent believed too” He smirked
“Mr. Reigns. That’s a compliment coming from you”
“You know who I am”
I shrugged “I’ve heard a few things here and there”
He gets closer to me, until our faces almost touched
“Yeah? Tell me, Y/N. That’s your name right?” He asked and I nodded
“What have you heard, Y/N?”
“How your the head of the table on your family’s business” I mumbled
“How does a woman like you, know about my family’s business, Y/N?” He walks forward, making me step back until I my back reached a closed door.
“I was raised on the streets”
Roman’s eyebrows raise in surprise “Really? You don’t seem like the streets type” He said, caressing my cheek.
“I had to learn how to be more polished if I didn’t wanted to become a hooker”
“I see” He buried his nose on my neck, inhaling deeply my perfume as his hands rested on my waist “And I imagine your perfume is also a result from a similar scene with the mayor” Roman whispered in my ear
“The senator not the mayor” I cackled
He amusingly laughs on my ear “You have friends in high places, huh?” His hands moved up, cupping my breasts through the dress
“People use what they have, Mr. Reigns” I look into his eyes “You use you intimidating strength” I squeeze his biceps “And I use my womanly charm” I batted my lashes “They’re both means to an end”
Come into my window
It's open every night
That's where I'll be waiting
I'll keep off all the lights
I'm lying on my bed
Crown jewels on my head
The loud knocks on my front door made me quickly get up. Going down the stairs I can see a tall manly figure waiting for me to come and answer. I grab my Colt 1908 Pocket Hammerless gun from the little drawer on my cupboard.
Placing my finger on the trigger I opened the door.
“Yes?” I ask harmlessly
“Mrs. Y/N?” The tall Samoan man asked
I nodded once
“My name is Jey and I’m here in behalf of Mr. Reigns”
I nodded again
“Why don’t you come and take a ride with me?” Jey coldly smiled
I'd never give you up
So come in from the cold, let your guard down
I'd hide you from the cops
Don't be frightened now my love
I'll take the life of crime, all to make you mine
The hotel room is big, fancy and very expensive by the looks of it. If I had to take a lucky guess, I would say that he’s not paying for anything in here, it is all a curtesy from the mayor.
“I’m glad you came” Roman smiles
“Did I had a choice?” I tilted my head
“No, you didn’t” He chuckled “Can I offer you anything to drink?”
“Are you going to drug me if I say yes?” I joke
“Depends on your answer to my proposal” He smirked
“Proposal?”
“Yes” Roman got up from his chair coming to stand in front of me
“You see, Y/N. You’re a very, very interesting woman. Ambitious, smart, charming, intelligent and gorgeous. You’re not easily scared, in fact, it looks like you enjoy danger” He pulled me closer to him, until our bodies were pressed together “I could use a woman like you in my business. At the gala ball you told me about your goals in life and I could see with my own eyes you successfully work your magic on every men in that room. So, what I propose to you is: come with me, I’m leaving town tomorrow and I would like for you to come with me, be a part of my team, use your looks and your brain to our favor.”
“And what’s in it for me?” I asked
“Money, power, jewels...Anything you want” He sincerely said
“What if I would like to add you to that package?” I whispered
Come in off that roof top
You're so handsome dressed in black
See you in the shadows
I'd like to see you on your back
Take this precious treasure
And I will treasure you
Roman smirked “So be it! If you want me too, then you can have me”
He leaned down, capturing my lips in a famished kiss. Pushing me down on the bed, his broad body hovering over mine, grinding, kissing, biting, panting, pounding and moaning until the first rays of sunshine from the next day peaked through the curtains...
6 MONTHS LATER
“What do you say about we take a drink, Mrs. Reigns?” Tony, my husband’s arch enemy and Capo of the Italian Mob asked
“I would love to” I smile sweetly as I hook my arm in his. Going to the back alley.
“I figured it was already time for you to leave that husband of yours for a real man, you know? And I knew you would come to me, sugar” Tony winked
“You’re right, Tony. I do need a real man” I smirked to the shadows when the gun fired.
Tony’s body fell down by my side on the dirty alley street
“But you didn’t thought you were that man, right?” I cackled
Roman’s arm circle around my waist, pulling me closer to him.
“Hello Tony” He smiled “Did you really thought you could have her?” Roman chuckled “C’mon, we both know she’s too much of a woman for you! You can’t handle it! I bet you’re regretting to have thought with your dick now, don’t you?”
“She will leave you eventually Reigns. Just wait for it!” Tony spat
I pressed my high heel on his chest wound, pressing it down and making Tony scream in agony
“You watch your mouth, you fucking fat pig! You know nothing, you ARE NOTHING! I would never leave Roman for you” I laugh “I will never leave him for anyone” I smile at him, aiming to his head and pressing the trigger right afterwards.
We'll run away my dear
Some place special have no fear
We'll even change our names
We'll be kinky, we'll be strange
I'll take the life of crime, all to make you mine
All to catch a thief
Your love is my relief, my love is your release
Your love is my relief, my love is your release
All to catch a thief
“You are perfect” Roman whispered, kissing me vigorously in front of Tony’s dead body. “C’mon. Let’s get out of here” He opened the passenger door of his Rolls Royce and I enter it.
Once we’re driving through the highway he says
“I can’t wait for us to get to the hotel” Roman kisses my hand, intertwining our fingers “I’m going to fuck you senseless” He growls
And I can’t help the happiness smile that spreads on my lips..

RE: WIPs game: do I even want to know what Dicebenders is is it another scam how many times are the Gaang gonna get arrested for scamming
No, this time it's me scamming people. XD The dice in question are the RPG Dungeons & Dragons kind.
For a while I was doing a screencap webcomic in the style of "DM of the Rings" and "Darths & Droids" with another creative fan named Captain Boomerang. I was the scriptwriter and selected the screenshots for each panel, and Capt-BA would assemble the comics and improve my scripts (a process that did frustrate me a little, as I felt locked out of the revision process, but I did like the results. I just felt like I wasn't holding up my end of the partnership a bit). I wrote a story bible explaining the characters and storytelling rules, planned out the adaptation of the entire AtLA premiere, and had less detailed plans for the rest of the series, but we only got 6 comics in before Capt-BA went on a trip and never returned to the internet. I did manage to re-establish contact with her long enough to get permission to continue the comic, but the problem is that I have no image-editing skills whatsoever.
If I could find comic-making software that I know would do what I want and be easy to use, I wouldn't mind dropping some money on it, but everything I've looked at is trying to do lots of things I don't need. I only want a way to import existing pictures into comic grids, and then easily add dialogue bubbles. That's it. But the stuff I've found is more about image-editing than comic assembly, and it takes me an hour to put together a dialogue bubble that looks good. So I have 3 scripts that were never produced, which along with the planning docs are what's in that WIP folder, and I don't ever see myself going beyond that.
Besides, someone else already managed to complete something like this, and while I'm not a fan, I don't need to be. At this point, Dicebenders is dead. I'm glad I tried it, and it's a shame it didn't work out, but I'm happy with the other projects I've done instead.
I am squatting on an empty Tumblr for it, though.
Anyway, to share something new, here's the first section of the Story Bible I wrote to make sure Capt-BA and I were on the same page in terms of characterization. The rest of the bible details the plotlines for full series.
AVATAR: THE LAST DICEBENDER
BIBLE
Premise- A small group of players attempt to run a fantasy martial arts RPG that winds up essentially becoming the Avatar saga, or something very close. The main point of the series is comedy, based mostly on ridiculous links between Avatar and RPG's. Sometimes the humor will be in the vast difference between what happens in the comic, and what happens in the cartoon with the same screenshots. Other times, the funny will come from the unexpected ways they converge.
SPIRITUAL PREDECESSORS
DM of the Rings- The original, and my personal favorite. It's a good showcase of how to run a single quest together, while using narrative jumps to skip to the good bits.
Darths & Droids- A similar project, this stands out from its predecessor in two main ways. The players and GM are more friendly with each other, and are more or less having fun with each other. There is also a running, coherent storyline in both the game and in the lives of the players.
Benders & Brawlers- This is actually an existing attempt to do Darths & Droids with Avatar. This is helpful as an example of what we DON'T want to do, retell the Avatar story in a completely straightforward manner, with RPG players behind the characters.
CHARACTERS
None of the characters will be given real names. The players shall always be referred to by their character names, although this can be done in a teasing, ironic manner. When the characters are speaking, their dialogue bubble must always be attached to an image of the character.
The Gamemaster- The GM is a female in her early teens. She is a geek, and a bit of a social outcast for it. Nevertheless, she's trying to make that work for her, although she's not quite mature enough to make it happen yet. She has just discovered RPG's, and in her enthusiasm has gone all out in starting her own campaign. The only problem is that she doesn't know how to recruit players, so she ropes her best friend and little brother into playing with her. This is the GM's first campaign, so she'll a little in over her head. She knows the mechanics of play, and what she's supposed to be doing as GM, but doesn't have the fine skill in crafting an engaging RPG experience. Still, she wants to do her best, is willing to learn, and has a positive attitude about the whole thing. The GM has a strong crush on the Sokka player, but the only way she can express it is by having all the female NPC's flirt with the Sokka character.
Katara- Female in early teens, and the GM's best friend. Katara's player was friends with the GM from when they were both in grammar school, so while they have grown up into wildly different personality types, they are fully loyal to each other. Katara is popular, and outgoing, and doesn't care or know about geek stuff at all. She's only playing the game because the GM begged her to. At first, Katara is clueless about RPG's, and frequently questions or ridicules the mechanics of the game. She never quite gets into the idea of role-playing, but quickly takes to the idea of meta-gaming. She'll have her character act like a righteous do-gooder, because completing missions and fighting bad guys earns XP. She hoards items that will boost her stats. She'll advocate abandoning a mission/plot if it doesn't pay out enough rewards. Katara's player also can tend towards trying to Mary Sue her character, but this is inconsistent and usually shot down by everyone else.
Aang- Male in junior high, and the GM's little brother. He plays simply because his sister has cajoled him into it, and there are hints that he's getting some kind of reward or payment for it. He abuses his position by forcing the GM to give him what he wants in the game, even if it breaks the rules- access to the restricted Airbender class, the ability to bend all four elements, overloaded stats, an Avatar State that protects him from dying, a magic super flying cow ride, etc. However, it's important to note that Aang's player isn't a jerk. He's just immature, and like all kids, just always goes for what he wants via the easiest path, and doesn't realize that he may be causing trouble or hurting feelings. He's enthusiastic about trying out this RPG thing, but he has trouble coming up with any action beyond attacking or retreating. He's also hyper aware that the GM and Katara are girls. He is too old for cootie concerns, but thinks that girls are fundamentally different creatures with their own incomprehensible concerns. Having a big sister, he doesn't find this a big deal, just part of life. Aang's player is too young to be a geek. He likes cartoons and sports and fantasy and school-dramas. He also tends to follow whatever his sister likes.
Sokka- Male in late teens. This guy is your quintessential RPG player. He has is own top-quality dice, he's played campaigns and systems of all kinds, and knows the tropes of the hobby cold. He's a huge geek for all things geeky, but roleplay is easily his favorite. He's a social outcast, but he's made friends among his fellow geeks, and thinks life is just fine. Sokka's player joins when he meets the GM at the comic/games shop they both frequent. The GM was buying some sourcebooks and material to support the fantasy martial arts game she's running, and Sokka noticed, asked about it, liked what he heard, and got permission to join the game. What Sokka doesn't realize, because he is a geek and neither has experience with it or realizes it's even possible, is that the GM is sweet on him. This manifests in the character Sokka's canon luck with the ladies, only kicked up a notch. *Every single* female NPC flirts with him, whether it's appropriate or not. Sometimes player Sokka notices and tries to roleplay it, and sometimes he's just plain confused. Sokka has a few quirks. His best set of dice are his Lucky Red Dice, which always roll high when he needs it, but have been tested and proven to be fair dice. He also mandates that every character he plays use a boomerang; he was turned into a geek by the first video game he ever played, a Legend of Zelda title, and his favorite weapon from those games are the boomerang. Each of his characters has a unique, named boomerang.
Zuko- The GM's favorite NPC. She created him to be a compelling, dramatic character, with a complicated back story, moral struggles, badass loner personality, angst about his existence, a darkly noble quality, and a cool scar. The GM intended Katara to get to know Zuko, for her to try to woo him away from the side of evil, and perhaps to even have a romance with him. The PC's, however, couldn't care less about him. To them, he's just another mini-boss, and the fact that most of his character development is happening "off screen" means they don't realize that he's recruitable. A frequent gag is Zuko delivering a stirring monologue while no one pays attention.
Iroh- Background NPC. The GM tries to use him to give (ignored) hints to the players.
Toph- (tentative) A male munchkin gamer who picked a long list of weaknesses in order to get superbending. Toph's player is a friend of Sokka's player, brought in after an "incident" with his old group, and causes some initial resentment in the group when tries to show the n00bs how its done. Cowing Toph's player is a major victory for the GM.
Momo- NPC, but maybe make him a talking sidekick who gives the players hints when the GM is really exasperated?
Azula- the GM's best favorite villain. Azula is the GM unleashed, letting her take out frustrations on the players in both combat and harsh taunting. Eventually the GM comes to like the character so much, she retcons mental health issues into the character's backstory, and has her pet NPC, Zuko, spare her.

Things i loved about season 4
- The Nun scene. Honestly the sheer level of galaxy brain Ludo Besse has when writting these seasons lol. It was a very clever pararell to have the nun mistake Sana for another Sister, in a country as catholic as Italy, its al simple way of putting the hijab into perspective, no one sees a nun and thinks the same things they do when they see a muslim girl wearing a veil, even when they are essentially pretty similar: an expression of their religion. I really liked it (and the conversation under the candlelight just felt a whole other level of intimate so thats a plus)
- The Luai storyline. Man i loved this bit of the season, can we talk about the scene where Nico and Luai see each other at the club? The song choice? The shots? GOLDEN. I like that there are no real villains in this story (except for Luai's parents) what happened between them wasnt the result of someone in the baloon squad being homophobic, they were both victims of the circumstances and i love that Luai currently has a boyfriend, i've never been happier for a side character in my life.
- Sana. I enjoyed Sana a lot, she is sweet, she is akward, is a different take on her character and i liked it very much. What i loved the most was that the side plots from the og are still mostly there but this time they are constructed so they still revolve around Sana and her struggles. After the fight with Marti and the Rose Squad when she stays there alone with blood on her hand and both of her worlds (the contrabandieri and the Rose Squad) just walk away from her and she is just crying...that hit me hard (kudos to Bea, her acting was also very good), it made the scene more about her and what it meant for her than about the external drama, and then she justs keeps getting hit when she hears the UFB talking about her and finally Eva and Malik kissing... i could feel the weight of everything that had happened that night just falling on her shoulders and my heart shrank...her character was so well constructed im glad she got such a great season.
- The Rose Squad. I loved them, three out of four of them have clear characterization and it just placed them really high on my list...Ludo managed to make me care about Luai who has a total of like, 5 lines so i think its safe to say they are very well written and very well used.
-Filippo. At this point Filo is the father of half of that school i swear, it laughed so much with his scenes, from drunk Rami to Martino being a mess and just giving up on life in Filo's bedroom, also the fan service with Elia, i would've enjoyed it more had they not implaid that Elia was going to date Emma there at the end. (We stan safe sex kids)
- Episode 8. Was such a beautiful episode to watch, Martino and Sana are one of my favorite Isak-Sana dynamics after Amira and Cris, i loved their conversation cause it was more about understanding each other, Sana was right about some things and Martino was right about others, it was nice to see her finally open up to someone after just botteling up her emotions for the entire season, it was really sweet. Her message to the girls was heartbreaking, i legit cried and had to rewind the video cause my vision kept getting blurry and i kept missing parts of her speech, again Bea's acting really helped here, episode 8 was Sana not only opening up to her friends, but to us as the audience, that even after 7 episodes on her POV, still didnt understand her actions very well, it was a nice way of complementing the new perspectice her convo with Marti had given us, i loved it. (Also hide and seek to reunite Niccotino? I love Ludo Besse)
- The girl squad. I always thought Eva was very underapreciated (which is why i adore Skam España for giving her more to do after her season), i dont know why, but since the first time i saw norweiang Eva's season she stayed in my heart, and this version of Eva is one i love as well, i enjoyed her character and honestly her last scene with Gio? GOLD, her letter? One of the best things to come out of the Skam universe, i want to thank Ludo for handling her with such love. Silvia i really liked, her clip really puts things into perspective and i love that they kept her cat as an actual consistent plot device, she's had a nice character development, from wanting desperately to be noticed by the school coolest boy, to simply not caring about boys to finally opening up to someone, truly letting them in and accept herself, no only her body, but who she was. Finally Fede... the backstory of why she spoke to Sana was something i really appreciated, as well as the fact of her being so ashamed of what she he had done, i like that story because it shows how people can change once their prejudice is deconstructed, specially at that age we are the product of the education we were given, things like homophobia, sexism or xenophobia althought still not acceptable for a teenager, dont mean that they can't be redeemed, that their world view can't change in the future and that they can't grow. It was nice, you may have been an asshole in the past but as long as you understand what you did wrong and geniunly apologize, there is no reason for us to think someone cannot be redeemed.
- Every. Malik. And. Sana. Scene. Was so amazingly shot and constructed that even when i understood 30% of the dialogue the first time i watched it without subtitles i was smiling like an idiot, the date scene, those last few seconds? Them just staring into each others eyes? No kiss scene would've made us feel what that made us feel and that is a testament not only to good acting, but to the amazing direction of Ludo Besse.
- Ludovico Bessegato. This man has so much love for this project it shows on the end result, Skam Italia is pretry similar to the og in terms of plot, but Ludo made it stand out with his characters, his cinematography and some minor changes. The result is a story most of us already knew and loved with characters that some of us might love more than the originals in a setting that for me personally is more relatable than the norweiang one and has earned a place in my heart. I still can't believe he alone had to manage social media for the first seasons and had to fight with Timvision to get the show done, im so happy his work, and the work of all the other people who poured their hearts into this project (including the actors) got rewarded in such a way.
- The final speech. I understood very little of it while watching the first time, but that didnt stop me from crying like a baby while Gio read the letter, i found i cared for every person on that screen, from all of them i had good memories on the show and i couldn't believe that a fictional story could make such an impact in me, specially since this is the second time i see it, i'm probably way to biased with this show and the truth is idk why,i couldn't pin point the things that make me love it the way i do, i just do, and i am very satisfied with this ending, if this is the end.

🐾Not So Secret Affections🐾
Summary: When Ochako brings her cousin with a mind reading quirk to U.A. for a week while her parents are out of town, she may realize she has gotten more than she bargained for.
~~~
Ochako smiled as the girls of Class 1-A gushed over her cousin, a sweet girl with very short dark brown hair that was filled with colored streaks, dark brown eyes that matched her natural hair color, and horn-rimmed glasses that framed her delicate face beautifully. Her name was Akiko Kasumi, and ever since Ochako and Akiko were little, the pair had been the best of friends, always excited for family gatherings. As a result, when Akiko’s parents were sent out of town for work, Ochako was delighted and immediately offered to have her come stay with her in the dorms at U.A. After getting all of the paperwork signed off with Principal Nedzu and Aizawa, Akiko had temporarily moved into Ochako’s dorm for the week, eager to meet all of Ochako’s friends and classmates.
“So what can your quirk do?” Mina asked excitedly, staring starry-eyed at the new girl.
Akiko flushed a bit at all of the attention but smiled and addressed all of the eager girls in the room, clutching a pillow to her chest as she sat cross legged on Ochako’s bed.
“Well, it’s a strange kind of telepathy quirk. I can actually read other people’s thoughts but only if I am able to tunnel through the mental shields that most people tend to naturally have against powers like mine. Some are stronger than others which means it takes me longer to dig through the shield but usually I can get through unless you get special training against my quirk type.”
“WHOA! Really!?” A very excited Hagakure squealed.
Akiko rubbed the back of her neck nervously and gave a little chuckle.
Ochako smiled at Akiko, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder. She knew her cousin was easily flustered and she also knew that her friends could sometimes be a lot to handle. Giving her shoulder a slight squeeze, Ochako rose from her spot, claiming she had to go to the bathroom. Leaving the room, the other girls waved a brief goodbye before turning their attention back on Akiko.
“Yeah, but that’s not all,” Akiko continued. “Recently, with some psychological training from my teachers, I have found that I am also able to project what other people are thinking to those around them. For example, I could choose to send Ashido’s thoughts to Yaoyorozu and vice versa without the rest of the room hearing. It’s like opening channels, allowing different channels to open allows different people to hear what travels down those channels.”
“That’s…, amazing!” Momo said, her eyes sparkling as she appraised the new girl.
“Urm, thanks! Sorry, I’m really not used to this kind of attention,” Akiko said with a giggle.
“Yeah, I get that, sorry we can be so overbearing sometimes. Just, as aspiring heroes, many of us just love learning about a new quirk! Also, we don’t get many visitors since this school is so exclusive, so it’s kind of nice to meet someone new,” Jirou said from where she was sitting on Ochako’s windowsill, her arms propped up on her bent knees.
Suddenly, glancing around with a mischievous look in her eye, Mina leaned forward excitedly.
“Hey, quick question, does Ochako know about the second part of your quirk, the part where you can allow other people to hear the thoughts of someone else? You mentioned you had just recently discovered this about yourself…”
“No, she doesn’t yet. I was planning on telling her this week during my stay since it was such an interesting update on my quirk and we usually love talking about that kind of stuff together. We have quirk talks all the time but we usually like to have them in person so we can display them for the other person to see,” Akiko said with a shake of her head, her short curls bouncing with the movement.
“Okay good, don’t tell her about it yet. Please, I need a favor from you, and it will require Ochako not knowing about this part of your quirk, otherwise she will try to stop you,” Mina said. Hagakure suddenly leaned forward. The two of them must have been talking about this together beforehand, Akiko realized, as the other girls gave each other confused and slightly concerned looks.
“Ashido? Hagakure? What is this ‘favor’ you want from Akiko?” Momo asked carefully, not wanting to put the new girl in an uncomfortable situation.
Mina’s smile got wider and Hagakure started giggling uncontrollably from beside her.
“Okay, so I don’t know how much she had told you, since I know you two are close but quite busy, but has Ochako ever mentioned a boy named Deku?” Mina asked.
“Hmmmm, once or twice, but like you said, we haven’t had the chance to talk in a while since we are both so busy so she hasn’t said too much about him, why?”
“Because they both love each other but they both refuse to admit it,” Hagakure said. “They are always so flustered next to each other and they are constantly hanging out together. They are really close and yet they still refuse to acknowledge the elephant in the room. At this point, even the other guys are starting to notice and calling Midoriya out for it. Everybody in this class ships them but they, very annoyingly, refuse to believe that their crush likes them back.
Mina nodded her head in agreement, her lip stuck out in a small pout. At first, the other girls had been nervous about what kind of a ‘favor’ Mina and Hagakure could want from Akiko, but now that they had heard what they wanted from her, they were all more than excited, their eyes shining.
“So what do you want me to do?” Akiko asked with a knowing smirk.
“We want you to finally show them that they both like each other. We are all so tired of watching them dance around each other, they just need to drop everything and make out already,” Mina said.
“It is true that they are practically made for each other, but neither of them believes they are good enough for the source of their affections so they keep pushing each other away. I know it would make both of them very happy if they were together though, ribbit,” Tsu said, her finger resting on her chin as she talked.
The other girls nodded in agreement and Akiko smiled brightly.
“I want to meet this ‘Deku’ character first, get to know him and make sure he is good enough for my favorite cousin, and then I’ll accept your offer if I think he’s alright. I can’t imagine Ochako liking someone who wasn’t right for her, she has always had good taste in everything, but I just want to be sure. Other than that, I accept.”
Akiko finished outlining her requirements just as Ochako came back into the room from her bathroom break, yawning and mussing her hair a bit.
“Sorry that took so long, guys. I took the stairs to the main floor rather than the elevator since I didn’t want to wake anyone else up, it is getting late.”
“Oh that’s fine, Ochako, very thoughtful of you,” Tsu said, standing up and stretching. “But I think it’s time for me to hit the hay, you’re right, it is getting late.”
The other girls quickly agreed and made their way out of Ochako’s room to head back to their own dorms for the night.
Mina threw out one last cheeky, “it was great meeting you! Thank you for talking to us!” before she left with a playful wink, but Ochako thought nothing of it as the gravity girl began to get ready for bed, exhaustion making her movements slower than usual.
Akiko had to force herself to stop from smiling as she too got ready for bed, constantly sneaking glances at her cousin and best friend as her conversation with the girls of Class 1-A replayed in a loop in her mind.
By the time the two of them had settled beneath the covers of the dorm bed and turned out the light, Ochako muttering a quiet, “goodnight,” Akiko was practically humming with excitement, eager to meet this crush of Ochako’s and hopefully make dreams come true.
________________________________
Akiko bounced down the stairs the next morning, humming softly. Ochako looked at her quizzically but Akiko waved her off.
“Don’t worry, cousin, I’m just excited to meet your other friends! The girls from last night were so sweet and welcoming, I’d love to get to know everybody else too!” Akiko said, purposely skipping over the part where she admitted she was actually eager to meet the previously mentioned ‘Deku’ from the night before.
Ochako smiled at her, missing the mischievous glint in her eye, beaming at her cousin’s willingness to meet her other classmates. She knew Akiko was a little shy, so to see her normally elusive friend come out of her shell was an experience all in itself, making Ochako feel all warm and tingly inside.
“I’m so glad they didn’t scare you too much last night,” Ochako said with a light laugh as they continued to walk down to the common space.
“Oh no, your friends were amazing! They were all so sweet and gentle and they were really interested in my quirk which was fun to talk about. Of course, I was a little nervous being the center of attention the whole time but they weren’t super overbearing about it.”
“Good, I was a little worried they’d be too hyper around you. I love them but they can get a little over eager sometimes,” Ochako said with a chuckle and a shake of her head.
Akiko giggled.
“Who are your other friends? Besides the girls, I mean, and what are they like?”
Ochako hummed to herself as she thought, a bright smile adoring her features as she thought about her other friends in Class 1-A.
“Well, I have my friend Iida, who is a very polite, respectful, kind boy, but he can be a little intense sometimes, especially when it comes to rules,” Ochako said. “And then we have my friend Kirishima, who is very bold and loud and energetic, but he is also very sweet and has a heart bigger than his chest. I actually became friends with him quite recently because we like to work out together.”
“Okay, anyone else?” Akiko asked, making sure to keep her voice light to avoid suspicion.
“I guess the only other two I’d consider my really close friends out of the boys would be my friend Bakugo, who I got closer to after our second year here at U.A. because we started training together, and my friend Deku. I will warn you, even though he has mellowed out quite a bit since freshman year, Bakugo can still be very intense, aggressive, and explosive most of the time. He might make you nervous but he really doesn’t mean much harm, at least to us. He and I started to spar together once a week when he realized that our quirks actually worked together kind of well. I still wouldn’t call him my best friend, but he is definitely an ally of mine,” Ochako said with a smile.
She still found it so crazy that she managed to become as close as she has to the explosive blonde, especially when she had originally labeled him as unapproachable during their freshman year. To give him credit, Bakugo had changed a lot since then, his temperament mellowing out a bit, and his intensity dialing back a little with each passing year as he improved both himself and his quirk. Ochako attributed some of that to Bakugo’s relationship with Kirishima, the blonde’s gentle yet competitive boyfriend complimenting him well and cooling him down when his mood got too hot tempered, but nobody ever said that aloud, letting Bakugo believe he had done all of the improvement himself.
“Thanks for the warning,” Akiko said with a warm chuckle. “But what about this ‘Deku’ character, huh? You talked a lot about everyone else but not him.”
“Oh! Sorry, I kinda went on a bit of a tangent didn’t I?” Ochako asked, her face flushing a little as her hand came up to scratch at the back of her neck.
It took all of Akiko’s self control not to smile at the sight of her normally composed cousin devolving into a tittering mess.
“Yeah, you did but that’s alright. What is Deku like?”
“Well, Deku is… one of the greatest people I’ve ever met. He is so determined, so strong, so amazingly driven and powerful all while having the sweetest personality of anyone I’ve ever met. He’s so protective of people, so willing to help others, to the point where he injures himself to get others to safety. It makes me worry about him, but it also makes me so inspired by him. He is so amazing, I know he will be the best hero this world has ever seen. He always inspires me to do better, has always lifted me up, encouraging me to follow my dreams. I know I entered U.A. wanting to be a hero, but after meeting him, my focus and determination to make that vision into a reality has increased tenfold,” Ochako said, her eyes glazing over a bit as she talked about her best friend. “I love him so much. He is my best friend and I am the luckiest person alive to be able to call him that.”
Akiko was looking at her cousin in shock. She had never heard Ochako talk about anyone in this way, with such reverence and love in her voice. It made Akiko smile despite herself, her cheeks aching with how far her lips stretched.
When Ochako looked over and caught the smug smile on Akiko’s face, she gave her cousin a light slap on the arm with the back of her hand, blushing when Akiko laughed.
“Sounds like you really like this Deku guy, huh?”
“Shut up.”
The pair finally reached the bottom of the stairs, making their way into the common space as Akiko laughed at Ochako’s remark, patting her friend on the back comfortingly.
“Okay, okay, I won’t bring it up again,” Akiko said.
Ochako ruffled her hair with a warm smile, her body relaxing as her cousin’s teasing ceased.
“Good, otherwise I’m going to have to tell everyone about that one time when you accidentally ruined Christmas for everyone that one year because you told everyone what their gifts were by accidentally reading the minds of everyone in the family and then cried for an hour when your parents explained how you had ruined the surprise,” Ochako said with a smirk.
“No! ‘Chako you wouldn’t! I was only six years old, come on!”
Ochako laughed at her cousin’s expense before branching off to grab a water from the kitchen while Akiko was summoned by a waving Mina. Rushing over to the pink alien girl, Akiko smiled brightly and nodded in response to Mina’s unasked question.
“Seriously!? You did it already?” Mina asked in a hushed whisper once Akiko had skidded to a stop in front of her.
“Yeah, we were on the stairs and I asked her to tell me about him. She was going on and on about him so I just sneakily opened her channel while she was talking. She has no idea that I did it and that poor boy probably has no idea why he could suddenly read Ochako’s thoughts, but I’m pretty sure it worked. He should’ve heard everything that Ochako was thinking.”
Mina squealed and spun in a happy circle.
“Okay, I’ve got to go tell the others! Keep and eye out for Midoriya for now, don’t worry, he won’t be very hard to miss, he’s got bright green hair and lots of freckles.”
Akiko nodded and made her way back to where Ochako was in the kitchen just as a brood of male students came down the stairs, all of them talking loudly as they thundered into the common space like a herd of giants.
As soon as everyone was settled in the common space, Ochako introduced her cousin to everyone, watching with a smile as all of the boys welcomed and fawned over her, smiling and laughing with the shy yet surprisingly funny new girl. Akiko talked with everyone that she could but kept glancing at Deku, whom she had pinpointed almost immediately, forcing down her smile whenever she saw him. He had welcomed her just as everyone else had but he had seemed distracted, his gaze constantly darting to Ochako before he quickly glanced away, a befuddled expression on his face.
“Oi Deku, what’s with that weird look on your face? You look like you need to take a shit,” Bakugo snapped suddenly, Akiko looking over to find that the blonde had also been watching Izuku, his red eyes narrowed.
Izuku blushed a bright red and stood ramrod straight as he replied, “it’s nothing Kacchan! Sorry!”
Bakugo merely made an annoyed sound before stomping over to where Kirishima was eating some sausage and eggs. The outburst from the explosive boy must’ve shaken Izuku out of his daze because he quickly turned around and made his way into the kitchen to start making his own breakfast, his movements hurried as if trying to distract himself.
Akiko looked over at Ochako to see her with her head tilted in confusion, her brow furrowed in a cute pout as she watched the green-haired boy rush into the kitchen.
“Something wrong, ‘Chako?” Akiko asked with feigned concern.
“Oh, it’s nothing really, Deku is just acting strange today,” Ochako said.
“Maybe he just has a lot on his mind,” Akiko said with a shrug, biting her lip to keep from smiling.
Ochako nodded absentmindedly before walking up to the boy. It was obvious from the frantic manner in which Izuku was making his toast that he was too busy overthinking everything in his head to notice the gravity girl behind him. Akiko ducked her head to avoid letting everyone else see her bright smile when she saw Deku jump at Ochako’s touch as her hand came to rest gently on his shoulder.
“Hey, Deku, are you okay? You seem really distracted today,” she asked gently.
Izuku’s nearly panicked gaze flew to her face and he coughed nervously, turning back to where he was murdering his bread with the butter knife.
“Yeah, I’m fine, Ochako, I just have a lot on my mind.”
Ochako frowned a bit as Akiko’s words floated across her mind, and the gravity girl turned to see her cousin talking eagerly with Hagakure. Ochako’s eyes narrowed on her cousin, but she ignored the strange feeling in her gut and turned back to her friend. His behavior was starting to worry her. She knew he could be frantic and flustered when he was thinking about heroes or strategizing a plan for an exercise but this felt different. This felt more like he was embarrassed rather than just getting lost in his usual moments of overthinking.
“Are you sure? You’re shaking.”
‘Oh gods, how do I tell her? Should I even tell her? She obviously knows something is up, but how do I tell her that I heard what she said? And how do I do it so that I don’t scare her away? Gods, what do I do!?’
Ochako jolted in place as what sounded like Izuku’s voice filled her head. Izuku glanced at her, but she waved him off, trying to get a grasp on her racing heart before she even attempted to explain what had just happened.
“Yeah, I’m alright, Ochako, just stressed for this upcoming exam. You know how I get sometimes, it’ll pass, I just need a moment to get a hold of myself, you know?” Izuku said in response to her earlier question, forcing himself to calm down a little.
“Oh, okay…, if you’re sure you’re alright. Do you want some help with anything? I could help you study or bring you some food if you need me to,” Ochako said, pushing away her jumbled thoughts to focus on her obviously anxious friend. She wasn’t even entirely sure he was telling her the truth after what she had just heard, but she wanted to give him the benefit of the doubt and help him through anything he might possibly need her help with. He deserved it.
“I’m alright, Ochako, thank you for the offer though. You’re too good to me,” Izuku said, flashing her a bright smile that she returned in kind once she saw it was genuine.
‘Gods, she’s so pretty…’
Ochako jerked in place again, her heart rate shooting up like a rocket. What the hell was this? Was this real?
“Ochako, are you okay? You keep jumping, almost as if you’re getting shocked by an electric fence. Are you hurt?” Izuku asked, suddenly worried.
He ignored her protests as he started to scan her body over with his eyes, moving around her in a circle to make sure he wasn’t missing an injury she had been trying to hide.
“It’s nothing Deku, really, it’s not.”
Ochako could tell that Izuku was not buying it, but he sat up straighter and went back to buttering his toast, giving her space.
“Okay, only if you say so…”
‘It’s so sweet that he’s so worried about me. And he’s so adorable like this, his hair all tousled from sleep and his eyes bright whenever he looks at me. Gods what did I do to deserve him? Nothing. Nothing at all. I guess that just makes him all the more special.’
Now it was Izuku’s turn to jump as the words filled his head, just like they had done earlier that morning when he was getting ready for the day in his room. He had been changing out of his pajamas when the voice had hit him the first time, making him fall over when he heard Ochako’s voice energetically describing how amazing he is.
His hands paused in their making of his toast, his eyes snapping over to her face. He already knew she hadn’t really spoken, but he had to make sure, the notion that he could read her mind just seemed too overwhelming. Neither of them had brain related quirks, if they could read each other’s thoughts, that could be both very exciting and terrifying.
He made up his mind when he saw that Ochako had indeed not spoken as she reached for the refrigerator door handle to make her own breakfast. Reaching out, he grasped her wrist before she could get to the fridge, causing her to look back at him in concern.
“Deku-”
“Follow me for a minute… please.”
Ochako swallowed nervously but nodded, moving to follow him as he released her wrist and stood from his chair, making his way around the corner to an abandoned hallway. The pair were silent as they walked, Ochako getting more nervous by the second, every bad thing she had ever done running through her mind in that moment as she worried about what he was going to tell her. Had she offended him somehow? Was he going to tell her he didn’t want to be her friend anymore? It didn’t sound like something he would do, but she honestly couldn’t think of any other reason for his behavior.
They finally stopped in the far end of an empty hallway, Izuku only turning to face her when they were far away from everyone else. He was quiet for a minute, shuffling from foot to foot as he tried to put what he wanted to say into words. Ochako was looking everywhere except for at him, her hands twisting nervously.
“Ochako, I-”
“Deku I-”
The pair stopped for a second before breaking out into a small fit of giggles after interrupting each other at the same time, some of the awkwardness in the atmosphere dissipating with the laughter.
“Sorry,” Izuku said.
“Oh no, it was my fault, you go first,” Ochako said.
“Well, um… I think, um… that we…,” Izuku managed to spit out. He cursed himself. Why couldn’t he just say what he wanted to say? He felt like his throat was closing in on itself, the words getting harder and harder to form.
‘Why can’t I just tell her that I think we can hear each other’s thoughts? Is it because I’d have to admit I heard what she said about me? That she thinks I’m amazing and cute? Or is it because I’d have to admit that I’m in love with her? Gods why is this so damn difficult! Shit, she is probably so confused right now, and it’s all because I can’t open my damn mouth. Come on you idiot, just tell her you love her. Just rip the band aid off. If she doesn’t like you back, you’ll find a way to deal with it, but you aren’t going to get anywhere if you just keep standing here with your mouth open like a beached fish.’
Izuku opened his mouth to attempt to talk again when he met her gaze. He froze, his body tensing as he saw her face. Her jaw had dropped so that her mouth was agape, her eyes were wide with shock, and her whole face was a bright red. He closed his eyes in embarrassment.
“You heard all of that, didn’t you?” Izuku asked.
Ochako snapped her mouth shut and nodded mechanically, her eyes still wide.
“O-Ochako, I am so-”
“I love you too!” Ochako said excitedly, cutting him off as she launched herself at him, her arms wrapping around him as she buried her face in his neck.
Izuku stiffened at the contact at first, surprise flooding his system, before his arms wrapped around her waist and hugged her close, burying his face in her hair. She smelled good, like warm strawberries, and it felt so right to have her held against him, her body pressed close to his.
When they pulled away from each other, Izuku’s eyes were shining with unshed tears, looking down at her with such strong love it made Ochako’s knees weak. Gathering her frayed strings of courage, Ochako rose up on her toes and kissed him, her eyes closing at the feeling of his warm lips against hers.
Izuku wasted no time in returning the kiss, a light sigh escaping him at the feeling of her against him. That sigh was like an electric shock to Ochako, the sound making her nerves tingle and her heart pound. The kiss was gentle but passionate, conveying their suppressed love for each other from over the years, finally allowing themselves to indulge in the thing they wanted most.
When they broke apart they were panting, still holding each other close as they fought to catch their breath. Ochako’s heart was on fire and Izuku’s head was swimming, both of them trying to come to terms with what had just happened. It felt like a dream, but both of them knew it was real when they looked at each other, both of their faces rivaling that of a ripe tomato. Suddenly, Izuku’s brow furrowed.
“Hey Ochako, how do you think we were able to read each other’s thoughts? I thought maybe it was because of us being in close proximity, but I heard you talking about me this morning when I was in my room and you were somewhere else, probably heading down for breakfast. Was there a villain or training exercise that you remember us doing lately that might have caused something like this?”
Ochako blushed when he admitted he had heard her raving about him that morning, but the feeling quickly went away when she suddenly realized who had caused all of this.
“No, I know exactly who did this,” Ochako said, looking around.
“Who?”
“Normally, her quirk can’t do something like this, but my cousin has a mind reading quirk, maybe she has a new manifestation she hasn’t told me about yet.”
Just as Ochako was about to give up looking, she caught sight of two light brown eyes watching her from around the back corner of the hallway, the eyes shining brightly with mischief and love.
“AKIKO!!!” Ochako bellowed as the eyes disappeared from behind the wall, the sound of multiple people running away echoing down the hall, giggles and cheers following the thundering sound of their shoes as they scrambled to get away.
Ochako sighed in both annoyance and love, a smile creeping onto her face despite herself. Looking over at Izuku, she saw him looking down at her, a bright smile on his face. She reached up and gave him a peck on the cheek before motioning him to follow her.
“Come on, let’s go face the questions and let them know you’re mine now,” Ochako said, laughing when Izuku blushed at her bold statement.
The green-haired boy trotted up beside her and grabbed her hand in his, intertwining their fingers together as they made their way back to the common room, both of them smiling so hard their faces hurt.
“Thank you, for everything, Ochako,” Izuku said, squeezing her hand. “I love you.”
“I love you too, Izuku. I guess I owe it to my cousin for showing us the way, huh?”
“Yeah, I owe her too,” Izuku said with a bright grin. “Big time.”

Return to Paradise - 5/? | westallen fanfiction
A/N: Finally, I post something. A little bit of drama, a little bit of family fun, and a little bit of trickery. Enjoy.
*Many thanks to @valeriemperez for beta’ing.
...
Chapter 5 -
The smell of tropical waters and feel of sand between Barry’s toes was a welcome greeting after the swimsuit-shopping – and then some – debacle. He turned his head over his shoulder to catch his wife and daughter whispering and giggling with each other with their arms linked, and he felt true happiness. It was a warm, beautiful day, and they were going to spend it as a family. The three of them would get fruity drinks, soak in the sun, and play in the water. It would be one for the books, with many more to come after it.
“You coming, ladies?” he asked, and Iris shot him a raised eyebrow.
Nora rolled her eyes. “Yes, Dad.”
The look Iris shot him put him on defense.
“I didn’t mean… I just-” He paused to gesture out before them. “The sea awaits.”
Both women smiled, and Barry breathed an inward sigh of relief.
“It does indeed,” Iris agreed, releasing her daughter to link arms with her husband. “Why don’t you get us some chairs from the rental booth, Nora? We’ll set up camp in that open space between those two families.” Iris pointed, and Nora nodded.
“Be back in a jiffy!”
“That’s not a line in the future, is it?” Barry asked. “I could’ve sworn…”
Iris patted Barry’s hand.
“No, it is not. She’s been watching old reruns of about a dozen shows from the last…two decades, I think? Maybe more. I don’t know. I think it’s sweet.”
“It is,” he agreed, warmed to his toes with the feeling of his wife right beside him.
“And…maybe I spoke too soon about…you know.”
His eyes widened, and he looked at her, coming to a stop.
“You mean…?”
“When we get a free moment, Barry Allen. Not right now.” She laughed.
“Right.” He swallowed his nervous laughter with a gulp. “Because today is family beach day.”
Iris smirked. “Today is family beach day, exactly.”
Her gaze dropped to Barry’s lips a moment later though, and Barry nearly lost it. If it hadn’t been for their daughter interrupting them from afar with their chairs set up in the chosen spot, who knows what scandalous thing may have happened right there on the beach?
“Mom! Dad!” Nora called out again, waving her arms.
Barry sensed she was seconds away from speeding over to them to see what the hold-up was, so he nudged his wife forward.
“Come on. She’s waiting for us.”
His eyes twinkled as she quickly turned her gaze towards the beach, where her daughter was waving wildly. Three lounge chairs were set up there in the sand with two huge umbrellas casting a shadow over two of them and a bit of the third. Nora was holding three water bottles in the crook of her elbow.
“I thought these might be a good idea,” she said, on their arrival. She handed each of them a water bottle.
“You thought right,” Iris said, taking a long glorious drink of hers.
Barry watched helplessly as a drop of water that had escaped her lips dribbled down her jawline to her neck and then disappeared beneath the v-cut of her sun dress.
“Dad!”
“Hmm?” He quickly turned towards Nora.
“What would you like to do first?”
“Uhh…”
“And before you say sit down, no, we’re not doing that. That’s for later when we’re too exhausted to stand on two feet anymore.”
“I wasn’t going to say that,” he said gently, but he knew he should be ashamed by what he was thinking, given who he was speaking to.
“How about we go swimming!” Nora announced. “The waves look so schway.” She turned to look and was awestruck not for the first time.
“Sounds like a great idea. You two go. I’ll meet you there in a minute,” Iris said, reaching to unzip her yellow dress and failing to reach the top.
“Race you there!” Nora shouted and took off.
“No speed!” Iris shouted, as Barry quickly assisted her with the zipper, then placed a peck on her lips and followed his daughter to the water.
Nora beat him due to the head start, but Barry picked her up and tossed her into the waves the first chance he got. When she came up for air, she was gasping and Barry was laughing. But Nora lunged at him and took him under the next wave. When they surfaced, she was giggling and his hair was plastered to his face.
Iris came out soon after, swimming past the first set of waves where her family was riding the sway of the ocean.
“Mom!” Nora swam over to her, dunking her seconds after she reached her – though not meaning to. Her hugs just tended to have that end result. “What took you so long?” she asked, smiling brightly as Iris recovered.
“I just enjoyed watching you two is all,” she said, smiling through the water streaming down her face.
Nora smiled, overjoyed, then looked between her parents and asked,
“So, what did you two do on your honeymoon?” Barry nearly choked, so Nora turned to her mom instead. “Did you go swimming in the ocean?”
“We did,” Iris answered her with a jubilant expression. “Did some racing too, but your father beat me.” She pouted.
“Dad, did you use your speed?” Nora accused.
Barry held up his hands in defense. “I would never.”
Nora rolled her eyes.
“Your mother just has short legs, is all.”
“I have short legs too.”
“You got a head start.”
“Only because you can’t take your eyes off Mom. Don’t think I haven’t noticed, Dad.”
Barry’s jaw dropped. Had he really been that obvious?
“Race you to the dock, both of you!” Nora announced. “No speed either. Just pure human strength. Ready? Go!”
Nora beat Barry again, though this time it shocked him.
“I was on the swim team in high school,” she informed her parents after they reached the dock. “Even your long arms and legs can’t compete with a pro.” She grinned at her dad.
Barry chuckled, then turned to Iris.
“What are we going to do with this girl?”
Iris’s eyes twinkled as she took her family in.
“I think we’ll keep her.”
Back in Central City, Ralph found himself bored out of his mind and wandering around STAR Labs to amuse himself. Caitlin was nowhere to be found, and the cortex was completely empty, but he found success in Cisco’s workshop with Cisco himself working on a project Ralph likely couldn’t care less about.
“Cisco, my man, C-I-S-C-O, Cisco!” He patted him roughly on the back, interrupting his process. “How’s it going, man?”
Cisco shrugged him off.
“Fine. I’m busy.”
“Hey, look, I get that. Totally. I’ve been busy at many times myself. I’ll just…leave you to it.”
“Thanks,” Cisco said dryly.
Ralph turned slowly and made to walk out of the room and then spun around when he was inches from the doorway.
“Look, here’s the thing.”
Cisco pursed his lips, set down his tools and turned to the tall blonde.
“I’ve got nothing to do, and you’re the only one I can find. Normally, I’d ask Barry for something to do, but he’s on that second honeymoon of his, so-”
Cisco looked at him as if he was talking gibberish.
“Where is Nora anyway? I haven’t seen her either.”
Cisco was about to slap him upside the head when he suddenly remembered Ralph hadn’t been the most present when everyone was saying their goodbyes to the West-Allen family.
“Aren’t you a P.I.?” Cisco blurted.
“No cases, I’m afraid.” He slipped his hands into his pockets. “Believe me, that was the first place I looked.”
“Reassuring,” Cisco muttered under his breath. “Look, I’ve got nothing for you to do. Caitlin’s at home today, and Nora is with Barry and Iris.”
“On their honeymoon?” He gasped, then paused, correcting himself. “Sorry. Second honeymoon.” He chuckled then. “Lucky them, by the way. Who gets a second honeymoon anyway?”
“Well, if you’ll remember, there first honeymoon was cut a little short.” He narrowed his eyes at him. “Should I remind you how that happened?”
“Nope! I’m good.”
“Uh-huh.”
“But…” Ralph inched a little closer. “Why is Nora with Barry and Iris?”
Cisco sighed. “If you must know, she invited herself along, and her parents didn’t object. So now it’s not a second honeymoon. It’s a family vacation.”
“Ooo.” Ralph cringed. “Barry can’t be happy about that.”
He wasn’t, but Cisco wasn’t about to tell Ralph that.
“He’s the one who insisted on it.”
Ralph’s jaw dropped. “He did? But…why?”
Cisco shook his head at him.
“Do me a favor, Ralph.”
“What’s that?” he asked cheerfully.
“Don’t have kids.”
He frowned as Cisco moved past him through the doorway on the way to the lounge.
“Barry insisted, because Nora has no memories of him other than what she’s experienced since she’s been here. That means no vacations. This is an opportunity for her to have that memory.”
“Oh, that makes sense,” Ralph said, following him.
“I’m glad you think so,” Cisco muttered, getting behind the bar to pour himself a drink.
“It’s just…” Ralph took a seat. “If it was meant to be a second honeymoon, won’t Nora tagging along mean very little alone time for Barry and Iris?”
He was too damn smart, Cisco thought. Then a light turned off in his head. Duh. P.I.
“I’m sure they’ll get some alone time,” Cisco said, taking a gulp of his alcoholic beverage.
“Hope you’re right too,” Ralph said. “Who knows when they’ll have the chance to get solid alone time again?”
Cisco’s brows furrowed, worried Ralph was making a legitimate point.
“Yeah…”
“Well, good talking to ya, man. I’m gonna head out!” he announced, heading down the hallway.
“Wait. What? I thought you were bored!” Cisco called out to him.
Ralph stopped, turned and smiled.
“You just gave me a brilliant idea.”
Cisco suddenly felt sick.
“No. Whatever you’re thinking, don’t do it. Barry and Iris will get their alone time in somehow. They always do. Barry will never forgive you if you do what I think you’re planning on doing.”
“And just what am I planning on doing?” he asked, sinking his hands into his pockets again.
“I…don’t know yet.” Ralph smiled smugly. “But something to sabotage their vacation, I’m sure.”
Ralph let out a mock gasp. “Cisco,” he said dramatically. “I would never.”
“Then what are you doing?” His eyes narrowed.
Ralph only smiled again. “I’ll see you later, Cisco.”
“Ralph.” He kept walking. “Ralph!”
The sound of the elevator doors opening and closing was the only thing that reached Cisco’s ears.
“Damn it,” he muttered.
Once outside STAR Labs, Ralph planted himself on a bench and pulled out his phone to text Barry. He’d thank him later for this, he was sure.
Of course, he had no intention of breaking Nora’s heart. That was the last thing he wanted to do. But her parents needed their alone time! Even Ralph could feel the tension in the room when Barry and Iris couldn’t find time to have sex. He’d felt it a lot recently, especially with their adult daughter in town demanding much of their time, first of Barry, then of both of them.
Besides, if this text had the effect he thought it was going to have, it would at the very least get Barry and Iris to squeeze in actual time to be alone. Didn’t Nora want some time to herself too? Didn’t anybody? Human nature to want alone time. Certainly this would be helpful to all of them.
And, if Nora did come back to Central City, he could help her out with keeping the city safe while her parents were gone.
Yes. This plan was simply genius.
So, after opening a blank text message to Barry, Ralph typed out the intended message and hit send.
I heard you guys went on a second honeymoon! Sorry I didn’t get to say my goodbyes. Hopefully this one will be uninterrupted. ;)
That was a good message, he decided.
A perfectly perfect way to give two of his favorite people the alone time they deserved.
And maybe in some small way it would redeem from the debacle of last year’s interruption, which he was solely responsible for.
Maybe.
After a full day of swimming in the waves, building sandcastles, almost completely burying Barry in the sand, and sunning themselves, the West-Allen family thought it best to wash themselves off in the public showers, dry off and get ready for dinner just as the sun was starting to set.
“Do we have everything?” Iris asked, as they were making their way across the beach.
“I think so… Oh wait, my phone.”
“I’ll get it!” Nora said cheerfully, and Barry chuckled.
“All right. Hurry.”
This time she did use her super speed to get to their spot on the beach. She found the phone right away with a partial text displaying across the screen. She frowned, wondering if it was an invasion of privacy if she glanced at it. She turned to look at her parents, who weren’t waiting for her and were holding hands as they made their way to the showers.
Nora swooned. She had the cutest parents.
Looking back at the phone and seeing the message hadn’t gone away yet – and was from Ralph, a completely harmless individual – she decided to skim the message. It could be important!
To her surprise, she was able to scroll and read the whole message without getting past the lock screen.
Her heart sank as line by line she came to the realization of what no one had been brave enough to say to her face. Tears started streaming down her face as a knot formed in her stomach.
Was this really intended to be a second honeymoon?
Were her parents wishing she wasn’t there so they could be alone?
Were all their smiles directed at her complete lies?
She was shaking now with anger and heartbreak.
Why hadn’t they told her? Why hadn’t anybody? She knew she’d been possessive of her parents ever since she arrived, her dad especially, but if they wanted alone time, why didn’t they just say so?
Nora turned around, hoping to see her parents in the distance, but they’d both disappeared into separate showers, and she couldn’t see them anymore. Grinding her teeth together, she clutched the phone tightly and made her way to her own shower.
“Hey, Nora,” Iris called out to her, which made her stop. “I’m done with the shower now. You can use mine.”
Nora forced a smile. “Thanks.”
“Oh, I’ll take your dad’s phone.”
Nora reluctantly handed it over.
“There’s a message from Ralph on there. You might want to read it,” she said dryly.
Iris groaned. “Not again.”
Nora froze. Not again? Had he been sending messages since they arrived, and she just didn’t know?
That didn’t make sense with the way this message had been worded, but maybe he had?
Nora felt even worse.
“Go ahead and take your shower, Nora. We have reservations at one of the restaurants by the villa. Your dad made them early this morning.” She gushed.
Nora wondered if the reservations had been made with the wish that it could be just the married couple returning for their second honeymoon.
She nodded and sighed, which sent off alarm bells for Iris.
“Honey, is everything all right?”
“Yeah.” She forced a smile. “I’m just tired, that’s all. It’s been a long day.”
“A good day, though,” Iris said.
Yeah, but for who? Nora wondered.
“You just need some food in you,” Iris suggested, and Nora nodded, needing an escape from her feelings.
“That’s probably it.”
“Well, I’ll let you rinse off. I have your towel ready when you’re done.”
“Thanks.”
Brooding in the shower had become a habit of Nora’s over the years, usually when she was trying to avoid her mother or was angry at the fact that she had no memories of her dad. But this time felt different. This time she felt tricked or lied to, and by her sweet parents that had been nothing but good to her since she arrived.
Maybe she was overreacting. Being dramatic or acting in excess, the way the mother she’d known almost her whole life had tended to call it. After knowing more about her dad, she thought it was possible she got her reckless dramatic tendencies from him. She got a lot from him actually. It probably made things very bittersweet for her mom all those years.
She bit her bottom lip.
She needed to be brave. She couldn’t jump to conclusions, and she definitely couldn’t create a scene over this. She would just have to…find a way to leave without being too suspicious. They could always plan another vacation in the future, right? And they had had a wonderful day together. Her parents had had fun too. Right?
Ugh.
It was driving her crazy how she didn’t know, and how she was afraid to ask anyone. It might ruin the mood. She didn’t want to ruin anything more than she already had.
“Nora. Nora!”
There was a sudden knocking on the stall door, and Nora jumped.
“Honey, are you okay?” Her mother asked, and Nora shut off the water.
“Yeah, I’m fine. Towel?”
Her towel was handed to her through the small opening she created, and she quickly dried herself off. When she pushed the door open, her mother was staring at her sadly.
“What?”
“Honey…did you read this message?” She held up the phone for her to see.
Nora gulped.
“Oh, Nora.” Iris’ shoulders slumped.
“No, it’s fine. I understand. You two wanted to be alone, and I ruined it.”
“Nora.”
“I’m not really hungry, Mom. You and dad should eat at the restaurant, just the two of you. I’ll pack up and leave in the morning.”
Iris’ eyes widened, horrified.
“Nora! You are not going anywhere. You-”
But her daughter flashed away before she could get a word out.
“Damn, I hate it when she does that,” she muttered.
“Hey!” Barry said cheerfully, coming to her and wrapping her arms around her, swaying gently until he realized his wife was very tense in his arms. “What’s the matter?” he asked, taking a step back.
Iris was mad at hell, and it showed in her eyes, but Barry could also tell it wasn’t directed at him. She held up the phone for him to see.
“Read this,” she said, then pushed it against his chest for him to catch. “It seems Ralph has a penchant for ruining our vacations.”
She stormed off in the direction of the villa.
“Wait! Iris-”
Barry sighed and lifted the phone to his line of sight, quickly skimming the message. He had a nasty feeling Iris hadn’t been the first one to read this message. It had been Nora.
A chill raced down his spine. An angry, guilty one. He needed to find his daughter as soon as possible and set her straight. Then he’d make a special visit to Central City to wring his “friend’s” neck.
He sped to Iris and picked her up in his arms, then ran them both back to the villa, hoping to find Nora there not finished packing her things.
But she wasn’t there. She wasn’t anywhere. She was gone.

Forever and Always - A Noah Centineo Imagine
A/N: Hey Everyone! I’m finally back with a new Noah imagine. I’m sorry it took me so long to post this prompt, which was requested a while ago. I actually finished it a few weeks ago but just didn’t have the chance to put it up, but now I do, so here it is! I hope you like it and thank you for your request. I had a lot of fun writing this and I hope you guys enjoy it too! Let me know what y’all think, any feedback is appreciated! 
Tumblr media
Prompt request:
#4 “You look amazing.”
#10 “You know I never wanted to lie to you.”
****
Being in love is the most beautiful thing in the world, especially when the person you love, loves you back. (Y/N) was currently in love with someone and was lucky enough to call him her boyfriend. She met Noah through a mutual friend at a dinner party and immediately had a strong connection to him. They spent most of that party with each other and became super close, super fast. Even though everyone knew that they were clearly head over heels for each other, it was oblivious to the both of them, which was the reason why they didn't date for quite a while. Luckily Noah did have the courage to confess his feelings to (Y/N) one day which led to them going on their first date just about six months ago.
They've been inseparable ever since and spent almost every day together. Even though it wasn't always easy dating a young, hot-shot actor like Noah, especially with him being so busy with his tight schedule most of the time, they wouldn't trade each other for the world. Ever since his two movies on Netflix released, Noah's life had drastically changed. He gained millions of followers overnight and quickly made himself a name as the 'Internet's boyfriend'. (Y/N) was proud of her boyfriend and of how far he'd come and supported him all the way, which wasn't something Noah took for granted. A lot of his relationships had failed due to his job, but (Y/N) knew how hard the entertainment business was because she was a part of it too.
(Y/N) was a blogger and also had her own YouTube channel where she made fashion and lifestyle videos as well as vlogs where she shared her daily life online with her audience. She loved her job and was very grateful for everything that came out of it, but of course it was also very hard sometimes and required a lot of effort and time. While (Y/N) mostly worked from home, where she had her own little office, Noah was always on the road, filming and doing promo's for new movies and projects he was working on, just like he was doing right now.
He was filming the sequel to 'To All The Boys I've Loved Before' in Vancouver and even though (Y/N) was really excited for him, she couldn't help but feel a little sad about it too. They were supposed to celebrate (Y/N)'s birthday together next week, but unfortunately Noah couldn't clear his schedule from filming, which meant that he couldn't be with her like they'd originally planned. (Y/N) usually didn't make a big fuss about her birthdays, but this year was different. It was her first birthday with Noah as her boyfriend and she was really excited to spend that day with him. Of course she understood that Noah couldn't just take a day off whenever he wanted, no matter how much she'd love to have him there.
****
It was (Y/N)'s 23rd birthday today and she was getting ready for the day, when she got a Facetime call from Noah. (Y/N) couldn't help but smile as she answered the call. She waited for it to connect and when it did, she saw a wide grinning Noah staring back at her.  
“Happy birthday, baby.” He greeted her before making a kissing face into the camera.
“Thank you, sweetie. I wish you were here with me, though.” (Y/N) answered, pouting a little at him.
“Yeah, me too. I hate that I couldn't clear my schedule for you. I swear I'm gonna be grumpy all day and let everyone know how upset I am about not being able to be with my girlfriend on her special day.” He said, looking at (Y/N).
“You're so sweet, Noah, but you don't have to do that. We'll just celebrate my birthday when you're back from shooting, okay?” She said, looking back at Noah with a small smile on her face. He nodded and smiled back at her.
“Anwaay, where are you right now?” (Y/N) asked, noticing a different, unfamiliar looking background behind Noah.
He quickly answered, “I'm just in my trailer, waiting to be called back on set.” (Y/N) noticed his sudden nervousness, but didn't ask any further and chose to believe him instead. The two of them spoke for another half hour until it was time for Noah to leave again.
“Shoot, looks like I gotta go, babe. I miss you so much and wish I was there to celebrate you, but I hope you have an amazing day, nevertheless.”
(Y/N) smiled at that, “I miss you too, honey. This day won't be the same without you, but I'll still try to have some fun. I love you, Noah.”
“I love you too, baby. I talk to you soon, okay? Bye.” He blew a few kisses at (Y/N) and she returned the favor, her heart aching at the thought of spending her birthday without him. They hung up and (Y/N) sighed quietly, before she finished getting ready for the day.
Once (Y/N) was ready for the day, her best friend Emma came over to spend the day with her.
“Happy birthday, bestie. I know you're sad that Noah can't be here, but I promise we'll still make the most of this day. I have everything planned out for us already and it's gonna be freaking amazing!” Emma said enthusiastically as she hugged (Y/N).
“Thanks, Em, but I don't really feel like celebrating today. I'd rather just stay in and watch Netflix or something.” (Y/N) told her, missing Noah like crazy already and not wanting to have fun without him. She hated that she felt so attached to him and how her mood mostly depended on him, but she didn't have any contol over the way she felt about him. Everything with Noah was still so new and yet she was head over heels in love with him already. Even though they spent most of their time together, she still missed him whenever they weren't. (Y/N) knew that today was supposed to be all about her, and she appreciated that Emma was there to be with her, but for some reason it felt wrong to celebrate her birthday without Noah.
“No, there's no way you're staying here. Don't be one of those girls that can't have fun without their boyfriends around, especially on a day that's supposed to be all about you. I know that Noah would want you to enjoy yourself today so, c'mon, (Y/N). I promise, it'll be fun.” Emma gave (Y/N) a pleading look as she waited for her to say something.
She sighed, knowing Emma was right. “Okay, fine, I'll go with you. But please promise me it's just gonna be me and you today, and that you didn't make a big fuss about my birthday because you know how much I hate that.”
Emma squeaked a little before hugging (Y/N) again. “Well all I can promise is that you're gonna have a birthday you'll never forget.”
(Y/N) raised her brows suspiciously, “What's that supposed to mean, Em?”
“You'll see. Now, come on, let's get you ready for your special day.” Emma said, pulling (Y/N) towards her closet.
“But I am ready. What's wrong with what I'm wearing right now?” (Y/N) asked, looking down at herself. She was wearing her favorite denim skirt and a cute little white blouse on top as well as some golden earrings. She loved her outfit and didn't understand why she needed to change for whatever Emma had planned for them.
“Nothing's wrong with your outfit, (Y/N), you look great. But you don't just want to look great for whatever I've got planned for us, you want to look your very best, so let's go and see what you've got in here.”
(Y/N) sighed again before she followed Emma, who was already looking for an outfit in (Y/N)'s walk-in-closet. For the next hour or so, the both of them worked on (Y/N)'s new outfit and even changed up her hair and make-up.
Once they were ready with everything, (Y/N) finally looked at herself in the full-length mirror to see the end result. She was now wearing a burgundy colored dress with no sleeves that perfectly showed of (Y/N)'s curves and it also had an open back, which was probably her favorite part about the whole outfit. She paired the dress with silver stilettos and a matching clutch and perfected her look with some silver hoop earrings and a beautiful heart shaped necklace that Noah had given her for their six month anniversary a few weeks ago. (Y/N)'s usual, long, straight hair was curly and pulled up into a half bun, which she wore in honor of Noah since that was his favorite hairstyle on her. Her make up was rather light and sweet while her red lips that matched the color of the dress, complimented the rest of her look perfectly.
“Damn, you were right, Em, I do look great in this dress. In fact this whole outfit makes the other one look boring and out of style. I'm so glad I listened to you and put this on.” (Y/N) said as she smoothed the dress over her body.
“Of course I was right. Now come on, pose for the camera. I'm gonna snap some sweet pictures for your Instagram because you need to share this look with the world, girl.” Emma said before taking a few pictures of (Y/N)'s look.
“Wow, these are some great shots, Em.” (Y/N) said as she scrolled through her phone to look at the pictures her best friend had taken of her.
Emma just shrugged and answered, “Don't forget to tag me, babe.”
(Y/N) laughed and quickly made her post on Instagram before she put her phone away and looked back at her best friend.
“Okay, now that I look the part, can you finally tell me what you've got planned for us and why I had to dress up like a Hollywood star that's going to a red carpet event?” She asked, raising her brows at Emma.
“Well, I can't tell you anything, besides that we're going somewhere else. So put on this blindfold and then we're ready to go.” Emma pulled out a blindfold and walked behind (Y/N) to put it on her but (Y/N) just shook her head at that.
“A blindfold, are you serious, Em? There's no way I'm putting that on.” (Y/N) protested, shaking her head.
Emma gave her a pleading look and said, “Please?”
“Uggh, fine.” (Y/N) sighed and turned around so Emma could put the blindfold on her.
“Yes, I promise you're going to love what I've got planned for us.” Emma responded with a smile as she put the blindfold on.
(Y/N) answered, “Well, let's hope you're right about that.”
Emma turned (Y/N) around and took her hand in hers, guiding her outside to her car. Once they were both safely in the car, Emma turned on the engine and made her way over to a secret location, where she'd planned to surprise (Y/N).
****
Half an hour later they arrived at the secret destination where Emma parked her car before getting out of the car and opening the door for (Y/N).  
“Here, take my hand again. We're almost there.” Emma carefully took (Y/N)'s hand and helped her out of the car. She then led (Y/N) inside the cabin that she'd rented for the day, where (Y/N)'s surprise was already waiting for them.
“Okay, you can take your blindfold off now.” Emma told (Y/N) when they made it inside the cabin. (Y/N) let out a small breath before she removed her blindfold. It took her a second to adjust her eyes to the brightness of the room, but once she did, she saw all of her closest friends and family staring at her in anticipation.
“SURPRISE!” They all yelled with big smiles on their faces and a couple of them were even filming the situation to capture (Y/N)'s reaction.
“What the hell?” (Y/N) asked confused as she stared back at everyone.
Emma turned to (Y/N) and smiled. She took both of (Y/N)'s hands in hers before she said, “Happy Birthday, (Y/N). I know you don't like to make a big fuss out of your birthdays, but I just wanted to give back to you for everything you've done for me over the last couple of years, because I love you so much. You're my best friend in the entire world and deserve to have the best day ever, which is why I planned all this just for you.”
(Y/N) felt tears stinging in her eyes as she looked back at her best friend. She wrapped her arms around Emma, pulling her in for a tight hug.
“Wow, I don't even know what to say, Em. I can't believe you did all of this for me.” (Y/N) whispered to her, her voice shaking a little.
“You don't need to say anything. All I want you to do is have fun today and let us celebrate you on your special day.” Emma answered as they pulled apart from the hug, smiling back at (Y/N).
(Y/N) nodded with teary eyes before she turned her attention towards her guests. “Hi everyone! I don't know what to say because I'm still in shock, but I'm very grateful to have you all here. I can't believe you're all here to celebrate my birthday with me. Thank you so much you, guys.” (Y/N) smiled at all her guests who all started clapping after her little speech.
(Y/N) then took the time to look around the room for the first time and saw lots of balloons scattered around the floor and the ceiling. There was a huge banner on the wall that read: 'Happy 23rd Birthday (Y/N)!' and a big table with different snacks and drinks was set up in the corner of the room. The highlight of the party though was the karaoke booth that was set up on the other side of the room where music was currently playing out of the boxes. It was the perfect party and (Y/N) couldn't help but tear up again as she let it all sink in.
“Wow, everything looks so amazing. Thank you so much for setting this up, Em.” (Y/N) said, making Emma smile.
“Of course. Now, come on, let's go and say hi to everybody.” (Y/N) nodded and mingled with her guests for a while, saying hello and catching up with them.
After (Y/N) made her rounds and talked to everyone it was time to open gifts. Everyone gathered around her as she sat down at the table with all the gifts and presents.
“Wow, you guys. This is too much. You really didn't have to do all this for me.” (Y/N) said as she stared at all the gifts in front of her.
“Hey, it's no big deal, (Y/N), really. If someone deserve a great birthday with great presents, it's you. So, stop thanking us and start open your presents. I'm dying to see your reaction to mine.” Lauren, one of (Y/N)'s friends, who was also a fellow YouTuber, said to her as she handed her present over first.
(Y/N) laughed before she started opening her presents. For the next few minutes (Y/N) unwrapped the rest of her gifts which she all loved. She couldn't believe that all of her friends went above and beyond just for her, and even though she was incredibly grateful for all the effort and time they've put in for this party, (Y/N) still felt a little sad about not having Noah with her today. She tried not to think about him though and put a smile on her face, allowing herself to enjoy the rest of the party with her friends.
“Shoot, I just realized that I left my present in the car. I'll be right back, okay?” Emma suddenly said before she rushed over to the door to get to her car.
“No, it's okay, Em. I don't need a present from you. You already-” But before (Y/N) could finish her sentence Emma was already out the door.
(Y/N) looked at her friends and asked, “Do you guys know what she's up to again?” but all of them just shrugged nonchalantly. (Y/N) sighed and turned her attention back towards the door. A few minutes later Emma walked back in, but there was no present in her hands. (Y/N) looked at her confused but before she could ask her what was going on, Emma spoke up.
“Okay, (Y/N), your present is right outside, but I didn't have time to wrap it which is why I need you to close your eyes for a second.” Emma announced, grinning at her. She felt everyone's eyes on her and saw them smiling weirdly at her as if they all knew something she didn't.
“What is going on here?” She asked confused, looking back at everyone.
“Will you just close your eyes please? Or do I need to put on the blindfold again?” Emma asked, pulling out the blindfold again.
(Y/N) quickly shook her head at that and closed her eyes. “Alright, my eyes are closed, now.”
“Okay, just give me a second.” Emma answered as she walked back outside to grab the present.
“Can I open my eyes now?” (Y/N) asked after a while, getting a little impatient.
“Yeah, you can open them now. I hope you like my present, (Y/N).” She heard her best friend say. (Y/N) opened her eyes and when she saw what her present was, she instantly felt her eyes fill with tears again.
“Surprise! You didn't really think that I would miss your birthday, did you, babe?” Her boyfriend Noah asked, as he stood in front of her, with a wide smile on his face and a beautiful bouquet of flowers in his hands.
“Oh my gosh, Noah!” (Y/N) exclaimed in disbelief as she rushed over to him. Noah handed the flowers over to Emma just in time for his girlfriend to jump into his arms. (Y/N)'s friends all watched the scene with tears in their eyes, some of them capturing the surprise with their phones.
“I don't understand how you're here, right now. Didn't you say that you couldn't clear your schedule for today?” (Y/N) held on to her boyfriend and sobbed into his neck, smudging Noah's white shirt with her tears and make up.
Noah pulled back from (Y/N) to look at her, his eyes also filled with tears. “I've known for a while that I was available for your birthday, but I wanted to suprise you, which is why I didn't say anything to you. I obviously needed some help to plan everything, so I called Emma and once I told her about my plans, she immediately agreed to help me out and set this whole surprise party up. I know I basically lied to you when I said I couldn't come, and I hope you're not mad about that. You know I never wanted to lie to you, but I had to in order to surprise you and for everything to work out.”
(Y/N) put both of her hands on each side of Noah's face and smiled, “Don't worry about that, I'm not mad at all. How could I be, when you flew all the way from Vancouver just to surprise me for my birthday? I can't believe you did that for me.” She started to tear up again as she looked at him and Noah immediately wrapped his arms around her.
“Please don't cry, baby, you're gonna make me cry too.” Noah said as he gently wiped at a tear that was rolling down her cheek.  
“You're already crying.” (Y/N) said, pointing at his face.
“What? No, I'm not, I mean, I wasn't crying. I just had something in my eyes.” He wiped at his eyes and laughed a little before he said, “I would do anything for you, (Y/N). I'd fly to the end of the world and beyond just to be with you.”
(Y/N) smiled and leaned in, kissing him for the first time in weeks. She knew that her friends were all watching, but she didn't care about that. She only cared about this moment with Noah and to finally be reunited with him.
“I missed you so much, Noah. I can't believe you're actually here right now. I'm so happy, it feels like I'm dreaming.” She said, once they pulled apart from each other.
Noah poked at her nose and smiled, “You're not dreaming, (Y/N), I'm really here and I'll be here for the rest of the week. Happy birthday, baby.”
“Thank you, sweetie. This is the best birthday I've ever had and you're the best present I've ever gotten.” (Y/N) stared at her boyfriend again, before pulling him close to her again.
“You're welcome, baby. But I don't think I'm the only one you should be thanking here. I couldn't have pulled this surprise off without Emma's amazing help. You're really lucky to have a best friend like her, (Y/N).” Noah said, nodding towards Emma, who was smiling from ear to ear as she watched the two of them.
(Y/N) nodded, “You're right. I'm lucky to have such amazing people in my life and feel so incredibly grateful for everything today.” She then walked over to her best friend Emma and pulled her in for another hug.
“I love you so much, Em. Thank you for doing this. You're the best friend anyone could ever ask for.” (Y/N) kissed Emma on the cheek before looking at her with teary eyes.
Emma just shrugged, a huge grin on her face. “Anything for you, (Y/N).”
(Y/N) hugged her one more time before she turned her attention back to Noah. “So you're here for an entire week?”
Noah nodded. “Yeah, I am. I already cleared my schedule weeks ago just so I could be with you. Sorry again for lying to you, baby. But the look on your face when you saw me was worth all the trouble. I kinda wish I'd caught it on camera.”
“Well, you two are lucky then, because I did catch (Y/N)'s face on camera. I actually filmed the whole surprise, because I knew you'd want to see it. Maybe you can even share it on your channel later.” Emma chimed in, looking at (Y/N).
“I don't have a video for this week yet, so that's actually a great idea, Em.” (Y/N) agreed, giving her best friend a grateful smile.
Emma just shrugged, “Of course it is. All my idea's are great, including throwing this party.”
“Speaking of party. I think it's time we actually start celebrating now. So let's get this party started everyone!” (Y/N) announced, looking at all the guests.
“It's not a real birthday party without a proper birthday cake, so let's have the birthday girl blow out some candles first.” Emma said, before she went over to the food table to grab the cake.
“Can someone grab the candles, please? They're in my bag over there.” Emma nodded towards her bag in the corner of the room.
“Sure, I've got this.” Noah said, before he grabbed the candles out of Emma's bag. He then helped to place the candles on the cake and lit them before everyone started singing “Happy Birthday” for (Y/N). After she blew out the candles they all ate some cake before officially starting the party.
****
It was a little while later and everyone was enjoying (Y/N)'s birthday party. A few people were singing karaoke over by the karaoke booth, another group was on the dance floor while Emma, Noah and (Y/N) were chatting by the snack and food table.
They were in the middle of a conversation, when a slow song came on and a few people started leaving the dance floor.
“I really hate to interrupt your heated discussion about who the best Chris' is, but I would like to ask my girlfriend something, if that's okay.” Noah said, looking at Emma and (Y/N).
(Y/N) nodded, “Of course that's okay. What do you want to ask me, baby?”
“Well... I was wondering if I could have this dance with you?” Noah asked, as he held out his hand for her. (Y/N) smiled and took his hand before they walked onto the dance floor together. Noah pulled her close and rested his hands on her waist while (Y/N) wrapped hers around his shoulders. They slowly swayed to the music together. The both of them enjoyed this little moment together, the comfortable silence between them making this moment even more perfect.
After a while Noah locked his eyes with hers and said, “In case you didn't know or haven't heard it yet, you look amazing, baby.”
(Y/N) couldn't help but blush at his compliment. “Thank you, honey. You look so handsome yourself.”
“You're so beautiful inside and out, I don't even know how I got so lucky to have you as my girlfriend. I'm so crazy about you, (Y/N).” Noah put one hand on her face, caressing it gently with his thumb while the other one remained on her waist.
“I'm the lucky one, Noah. Sometimes I still can't believe you're mine and I ask myself every day how, out of all the women in the world, you chose me to be yours.” (Y/N) answered, looking into his golden brown eyes.
“I chose you, (Y/N), because I love you. Only you. Forever and always.” Noah said, before he kissed her softly. (Y/N) kissed him back, smiling into the kiss.
“I love you too, Noah Centineo, and I can't wait to spend the rest of the week with you.” (Y/N) whispered back after they pulled away from the kiss.
“We're gonna make the most of it, I promise.” Noah said and (Y/N) nodded, running her hand down his chest.
“And I promise to enjoy every single minute of it.” She answered before kissing him again.
The End.

“Are you ready honey?”
You heard your husband calling you from downstairs. You looked at yourself in the mirror one last time, checking your hair and your makeup. Well, there was not much more you could do. You had tried to hide the tiredness but you were afraid it was still showing. You grabbed your little clutch on the bed and joined Gwilym who was waiting for you. He was so handsome in his suit, you could not believe that was the man you had married one year ago after three years of perfect love.
“What a lucky girl I am” you said, pecking his lips.
“You look amazing darling. Should we go?”
“Absolutely”
You were both going the London premiere of the new film your friend Ben was starring in. He had kindly invited you and you were really excited to go. He was part of the family now. You were really happy that he was part of the great cast Gwilym had worked with. He was there at your wedding and often came to the house for dinner. Of course you would be here to support him in this new project.
It was a lovely night and the temperature was perfect for you not to have a wear a coat with your dress. The cab was waiting for you in front of the house, the journey was going to take some time, especially with the evening traffic but you did not mind as long as you were with your man. He had come home from rehearsal just in time to start getting ready and you were happy to have a little bit of time to talk. He was really into this next play, Richard II but at least you were glad he did not have to go away to shoot a film.
“How was your day love?” you enquired
“It was good. We’ve started working on the last act so it’s pretty exciting”
“Can’t wait to see that. You know it’s one of my favourite play”
“I know and it’s stressing me out”
“Please, you’re going to be amazing. And you know I’m never wrong”
You were so proud of him and could barely believe how talented he was. He was so smart in his choices too, he was always so careful about his roles and you were really happy to see him going back on stage. You loved cinema of course but you loved live performances even more.
“Tell me about your day” he said
“Well… business as usual. We had a little party and that’s it”
“A party. What for?”
“Alice, one of my colleagues. She’s pregnant with her third kid so she’s leaving us to become a full time mom. She’s been here for quite a while so we decided to do a little something.”
You tried to say it as naturally as you could but it was hard, extremely hard. The cake, the kisses and congratulations had been a real torture for you. The reason was simple, you were not able to get pregnant even though you had been trying for more than a year now. You had stopped taking the pill a few months before your wedding, knowing that it could take a little bit of time and you did not want to waste time. But months had gone by and nothing. You wanted this kid so much. When you were younger you always said that you were not sure about having children, that it would depend on your future life, your partner and your position. Now you had almost everything and the only little thing that was missing from your life was destroying it.
“Was it okay for you?” Gwilym asked
He grabbed your hand inside his. He knew you were suffering from the situation. He had gone with you to all the doctor’s appointments, listened to your complaints and comforted you when you cried. He wanted to make a family as much as you did and he was being so patient. All the results had came back clear, there was no reason you could not conceive and that was the thing that made you the angriest. Age was a factor of course and there was nothing you could do about it.
“It was okay.”
You tried to smile at him. You had decided to stop feeling sorry for yourself. You would find a solution. You knew time was running, especially as Gwil was getting older and he wanted to enjoy being with his kids as much as he could. You have talked about adoption but it was still to soon for you to think about it, to give up on your dream of giving birth. You had agreed on making a pause, stop trying to control it too closely, because maybe you were thinking too much.
“Love, you can tell me about it”
“Don’t worry. I’m not going to become mad everytime I see a pregnant woman you know. It’s a wonderful thing for Alice”
“I know. But it’s alright if you’re upset”
He knew you so well. You rested your face on his shoulder, taking a deep breath. If fact you had cried today. It was just too much, all the smiles, the touching the belly, talking about pregnancy, you had gone to the bathroom to let it go and came back with a fake smile on your face. You had tried to keep things a little more for yourself lately. Gwilym was extremely supportive and this was a battle you two were fighting but you did not want to put too much weight on his back. This new play was extremely important for him and you were tired to see life turning around your dream of becoming parents.
You had so much to be happy for. You had a work that you loved and you were hoping for a promotion in the near future. You had the best friends in the world, even if some were miles away they were always here for you no matter what, especially for the crazy moments to share. And you were going to spend the rest of your life with the most perfect human being on earth. It was enough you thought, it should be enough.
You were worried most of the time and it made you think that the stress was what kept you away from getting pregnant. You had nausea and terrible headaches just as you used to have during exam periods at university and that was not a sweet memory. You were going to see your GP tomorrow to see if there was anything to do about it. You had been able to hide from Gwil because you knew it would worry him and that was completely useless.
Gwilym saw that you did not want to talk about it anymore and changed the subject. You talked about next Christmas even though you still had a few months and how you would split your time between both of your families. It was one of you favourite time of the year because you were not able to see everybody that often anymore but it also meant buying presents and you knew that was going to be your job to do so. Gwilym hated to do Christmas shopping and was often clueless about what to buy. A few months ago you were dreaming about spending that time with a round belly and tell the news as a Christmas present this year, but you were going to have to pick socks and scarves as usual.
The car was pulling off and you could hear the screams of the fans in front of the theatre in Leicester square. You were not a big fan of these kind of events but it was for Ben and not much was asked from you. You would simply smile next to your husband until you got inside to enjoy the movie and congratulate your friend. The door opened and you took a deep breath, putting a smile on your face. You waited until Gwilym was next to you and put your arm around his, that made you feel more confident. You joined the line and waited until it was your time to go on the red carpet. Gwilym turned to you and looked at your whole look, by his gaze you could tell it wasn’t as bad as you thought.
“Honey”
“Yes?”
“This dress, it perfectly highlights your boobs”
Before you could say anything back you were asked to move on. That little shit, it was so him! He looked so innocent on the outside but he was the master of these kind of moves because he knew you would make him pay for it later on. But right now you were not turned on, you were just highly uncomfortable. You tried to look your best for the photos and smiled as some fans were really excited to see Gwilym. You knew some of them were probably here because of Ben and their friendship was something they loved. He took a few pictures with some of them with you waiting patiently but you did not mind at all. You loved to see him so happy.
Still, you felt a lot better once inside. You were again surrounded by people you didn't know but the pressure was minor compared to outside. You knew Gwil would probably have to say hi to a lot of people and it was the perfect time for you to go to the ladies. You kissed his cheek, telling him you would not take long and went.
You found the bathrooms quite easily and you were surprised to see they were empty. You looked at your reflection in the mirror and focused on you breast, mentally cursing Gwilym for his little comment earlier. He was not wrong though. Your boobs looked bigger in it than they had when you had bought the dress a few weeks ago. You touched them and felt they were sore even though they were not especially compressed. You frowned and went in one the cubicles to do what you had to, not an easy business with that dress.
You heard someone getting inside the toilets and some noises. As you went outside you found a woman desperately trying to find something in her purse.
“I’m so sorry” she said to you “but would you have a tampon or sanitary towel”
You looked inside your clutch and handed a little tampon. You always made sure to have one on you, since you had stopped taking the pill your periods were highly irregular and you felt like a teenager all over again so you always came prepared.
“Thank you so much! You’re a life saver!”
You washed your hands and went back to your husband. The whole film you felt like something was wrong. You could not put your finger on it and that drove you mad. You were not even paying that much attention to the screen and you were not proud of it. You fingers were intertwined with Gwil’s and you tried to let the feeling soothe you.
You hated that kind of feeling, something was right under your nose but you did not know what so you felt like your brain was about to explode. The film ended and you applauded fondly even though you had no idea how good it actually was.
You had to wait before being able to see Ben, of course everyone wanted a word with him. You were extremely happy for him and chatted patiently before it was your turn. As soon as he saw you he hugged you both before kissing you on the cheek.
“How’s my favourite couple !? I’m so happy you could come !” He said
“We’re great thanks Ben. Thanks for inviting us” you answered, preferring not to say anything about the film
You talked for a bit, about life and things. You did not see him as often now, he was mostly filming abroad which was really good for him. Soon he had to go and talk to other people. Gwilym and you decided that it was time for both of you to go. You were still a little upset without knowing exactly why. Once again you had to go to the toilet, your bladder was really weak today and that irritated you even more.
“I’ll arrange for a taxi, just meet me outside alright?” Gwilym said
You hurried, and remembered the girl who had asked for your tampon and then it hit you. How your boobs were sore, your headaches and dizziness, you wanted to throw up regularly and most importantly, this tampon which had been going from purse to purse for weeks now. Because you wanted to not become too control freak you had decided to stop watching your cycles too closely but it became clear, even if it was messed up, it should have arrived by now.
You started to panic. Your head was going in a million directions at the same time. Could it be possible ? Could you be pregnant? You did not want to make any assumptions based on so little. The symptoms could just be periods coming a little late or even being a bit different. You felt dizzy and put some water on your face. You were breathing heavily. Now really was not the time for a panic attack. You tried to compose yourself. You were tired, you had had a really long day and were completely stressed out, you were probably just imagining things. You felt your phone buzzing and answered it. Of course Gwilym was starting to worry, you followed his instructions and joined him outside, hanging up as soon as you saw him.
“Honey, what’s going on? You’re so pale! Are you okay?”
You could see the worry on his face and that killed you. But you could not tell him because it would make your suspicion plausible and there would be hope and you were not ready to be crushed once again.
“I just feel tired, it’s okay. If we can just stop on the way if there’s a Boots open, I need to buy some stuff…”
You did not give any details and you knew he would not ask for them. You both went inside the taxi and he gave your address before asking him to stop if any drugstore was open on the way. You smiled at him before kissing his jaw. You were so lucky it was almost unbelievable. You talked a bit about the film and tried to avoid going into details but you did pretty fine. The car suddenly stopped and you saw the shop right next to you.
“Do you want me to go?” Gwilym asked “Just tell me what you need, I don’t mind”
You knew he did not but you said you were fine and went on your own. Gwilym was not the type of man afraid to buy a box of tampon for his girlfriend and you liked that, but this was not exactly what you needed to buy right now. You tried to make it quick as possible not to look suspicious although it was ridiculous, it was your husband in that taxi and you had nothing to hide from him. You bought the usual pregnancy test (you had gone through a few of them during the past few months) and a box of tampon. At least if the first thing proved to be inconclusive the second one would come in handy. You paid for your items, took the paper bag and got back to the car thanking them for waiting.
The rest of the travel back home was quicker than the outward journey. You were both so tired that it was completely silent. Gwil’s thumb softly caressing your hand. Once home you were welcomed by your little dog jumping all over the both of you. You had adopted Dusty one year after moving in together and you loved him so much.
“Someone is excited to see us” you said, petting his head
“You want to go for a walk buddy?” Gwilym said, joining you in the petting “That’s what I thought. I’ll be back in fifteen minutes alright?”
You thanked him and kissed him before going upstairs, the paper bag still in your hand. You were glad you hadn’t gone to the toilet earlier in the cinema after your little epiphany. You took off your dress quickly in your bedroom before going to the bathroom. You took a deep breath, you had done it so many times. During the first few months of you trying to get pregnant it was almost compulsive but every time became harder and harder. You peed on the little stick and tried to occupy your mind while you had to wait. Removing all the jewelry and the make up while always checking time on your phone. And then, suddenly,  you didn’t want to know anymore, you were too afraid so you decided to take a shower to cool down.
You were almost finished when you heard a knock on the door. Gwilym was back and you suddenly started to panic again. Before you could tell him to wait he was already inside, going to the sink to brush his teeth, his eyes suddenly looking down on the stick.
“Honey, I thought we said we would …”
You knew what was he was going to say, you were putting too much pressure on yourself and you had agreed not to think about it for a while. But he did not finish his sentence so you ripped the shower curtain open, looking at him. He had the pregnancy test in his hands and you could see his eyes watering. Your heart almost stopped.
“Gwil… I’m sorry… I know it’s stupid but I thought that maybe… I didn’t want to make you sad…”
You felt awful, you did not want him to feel the disappointment, to see you fail once again. You wrapped yourself in a towel, and he eventually looked a you but his eyes were not full of sadness, it was something else and before you knew it his arms were around you.
“It’s positive Y/N. IT’S BLOODY POSITIVE”
You snatched the test from his hands and as soon as you saw what was written on it you feel down on your knees, tears coming out of your eyes. You could not believe it, what was written right in front of you, you were pregnant. Gwilym’s arms wrapped you once again and for a few minutes both of you were just a crying mess, overwhelmed by joy on the bathroom floor. You finally looked at him, the perfect man who was going to be your partner in the greatest adventure in your life.
“I love you so much” you said
“Honey… You have no idea how much I love you too. My beautiful wife. The beautiful mother of our child”
You bit your lips, unable to hide your happiness. He took your hand and helped you get back up, kissing you before pressing his forehead against yours. The moment was so magical, so pure. You went to bed peacefully that night. You would have much to worry later on but the feeling of failure that had been haunting you for the past months had left and in Gwilym’s arms you fell asleep ready for the next day more than ever.

Letter 5
Tumblr media
Chris’s POV
November 5th, 2017
Chris had gotten a call from the receptionist this morning, notifying him that his letter had arrived, he didn’t hesitate to drive right over. But on the drive to the office, Chris had gotten an idea. “Hey,” Chris greeted as he walked up to the receptionist’s desk. She greeted him and handed him the envelope; Chris couldn’t help but notice how it felt a bit thicker than usual. Chris diverted his attention back to the receptionist, “is Dr. Holt in?”
“Yeah, she just finished with a patient actually, would you like me to notify her that you wanted to speak with her?” Chris gave her a nod, the receptionist then dialed Dr. Holts number, passing along a few words as she then hung up. “Go right ahead, Mr. Evans.”
Chris thanked her as he walked into Dr. Holts office, “Good morning, Mr. Evans, is everything alright?”
Chris chuckled, “everything is fine actually.”
“and I’m assuming the project is going as planned so far?” Chris gave her a nod.
“I actually wanted to talk to about the project, though.”
“Oh?”
Chris cleared his throat, “I was thinking, maybe we can get P.O. boxes? That way, she won’t know my actual office and it’ll beat coming here all the time, especially if you guys so happen to be closed.”
Dr. Holt gave Chris a nod in agreement, “that’s a brilliant idea, I’ll have to talk to Dr. Hudson about it and make sure it’s something they’d be fine with, but I’ll get back to you about that.” Dr. Holt smiled, “thanks for that suggestion and I’m happy to hear that everything is working out well.” Dr. Holt couldn’t help but noticed this sort of light in Chris’s eyes, he seemed more excited than usual and that’s saying a lot.
“No problem,” Chris then said his goodbyes as he left the office, not forgetting to say goodbye to the receptionist on the way out.
Once again, Chris sat in his car, contemplating on the opening the letter. But soon his alarm rang, notifying him of the family brunch he had to attend, it looks like the letter was just going to have to wait.
 Chris tried not to speed on the way over to the small diner where his siblings had planned on meeting each other. He quickly parked his car and ran inside, “there he is! I almost thought he was going to ditch us!” Carly said with a smile as Chris sat across from her.
“I wouldn’t miss sibling time for the world,” Chris said with a smile.
“Maybe for those letters,” Carly said with a smirk.
“letters?” Scott asked as he raised his eyebrow.
Chris rolled his eyes, “it’s a project I’m doing to help my therapist. I basically now have a pen pal.”
“That’s a girl!” Carly blurted out.
“A girl??” Shana asked, “what’s her name?”
Chris sighed, “Julie and it’s nothing,” he looked at Carly with a stern look.
“Hmm,” Scott looked at his older brother with a raised eyebrow, “anyway, how was Halloween with the kids?”
“I swear sometimes I hate that holiday, the sugar rush afterward, dear lord!” Carly began to say as Shana nodded her head in agreement. Throughout the brunch they spoke about many things, just catching up. They tried their best to constantly do this whenever all four of them were free. They needed this time together; the siblings were close with each other.
Chris arrived at his home in Boston not too long after the brunch, he sat down on his couch as Dodger was quick to jump onto his lap. Smiling he gave his dog some attention before remembering about the letter that had been in his pocket. Chris quickly took it out of his pocket and opened the unusually thick envelope.
    Dear Chris,
Yes, my random thoughts are normal, and I deserved that, I had no right on roasting you when I had just met you via letters. I’m just happy you have agreed to keep this mystery alive. It’s the only thing fueling my soul at the moment. The burning desire to find out what the heck is your last name is giving me the will to live! Apparently, I’m dramatic?
I have to say that my favorite customer so far must be Mr. William, a sweet old man, comes in every morning about nine and orders the same thing. Never changes. Always sits on the same stool by the counter and never makes a fuss. Now for the worst customer? Where do I even start?? I’ve had a couple of older customers that were male that have hit on me, in some inappropriate ways, but there wasn’t much I could do about it other than ignore it.
Yes, you can call me Jules.  My family tends to call me JuJu. They just always called me that, I guess. Nothing special about the nickname.
You can never go wrong with Etta James, Chris. Never.
You’re funny, Chris. Are you this funny in person? I can’t help but wonder if your personality is different in person than it is in these letters.
You’re an actor? Are you a living in your mom’s basement type of actor? Or are you a living a decent life type of actor?
I appreciate that, Chris, although, that is the sole purpose of these letters. I’m here for you too, though. Little things matter.
Highly doubt we are long lost cousins mostly due to the fact that most of my relatives are from Mexico or California. No family in Boston, from what I can recall but I am assuming that is where you are from? What’s the weather like in Boston? I’m sure it beats this heat here in California. I bet Winter in Boston is gorgeous! Man, am I excited for the winter! Even though, it isn’t much here, it still excites me. I’ll keep that in mind, Chris. We gave them the best lives.
Also, Oliver and Company is one of the best movies ever. Hands down! I am a die-hard Disney fan, for damn sure! I love anything Disney. I become a five-year old when it comes to Disney and I am slightly offended that you already want to be reassigned to someone else. I thought we had something, Chris. How dare you.
Two siblings. Older brothers, Robert and John. Robert is from my dad’s first marriage. I have no relation to him but he’s still my brother. Must be nice to have sisters, though. I’ve always wanted a sister, I got sisters-in-law now that I am older but when I was younger, I could’ve used a sister.
You’re turn for a question. I think I just started the game of 20 questions.
Toodles.
P.S. Yes, very happy. ; )
P.P.S.
My parents divorce. To tell you the truth, I got a small anxiety attack when I saw your question. Talking about my parents’ divorce used to be so easy and less messy but now with everything that has happened recently, it’s messy. I’m not saying that I’m not over their divorce because I am it’s been over ten years now. I am so glad my dad divorced my mother, she was the worst. I hate to say it but she was. Anyways, you sitting down? Got some coffee? Tea? If you’re into that leaf water business. Alright, well, my parents divorced when I was only seven years old but it felt like they weren’t even together before that. Mostly because my mother was always so cold and distant, she never wanted to play with my and my brother John when we were children, even when we begged her would threaten to kill us.
It was to the point that she’d chase us around the house yelling that she was going to kill us, I remember vaguely, one time my father came home to that scene, the anger and hurt in his face, it pained me to see him that way. And I know it pained him to see the mother of his children, the women that begged for children, to see her yelling at her own children that she wanted to kill them. Now that I think about it, I highly believe that my mother suffered from Post-partum depression. But, then, I also think it was guilt for the mistakes she had made in her past.
Anyway, my parents divorced since my mother had cheated on my father, for the third time… that he knew of. To top it off it was with the pastor of a church we went to, close family friend as well. My dad got custody of me and my brother but allowed my mother to see us whenever she wanted, also told her she didn’t have to pay for child support. It upsets me to think about how my dad told her she could see us whenever she wanted and she only came by one or twice a week and when she was there, she never paid us any attention. She was always glued to her damn t.v. watching her telenovelas.
My dad got remarried when I was twelve, the same month of my dads wedding my mom got remarried as well. Suddendly my mother became more attentive towards me and my brother when I turned sixteen, I moved in with my mother because I had issues with my stepmom, which always resulted to us fighting until 3 in the morning and her almost slapping me. It began to cause problems for my dads’ marriage, so I decided to just take myself out of the equation and live at my mom’s. Sometimes I wish I could just go back in time and tell myself not to, but then I don’t know what would’ve happened with my dad if I had just stayed. What would’ve happened to me? Well, I probably know the answer to that.
  Chris couldn’t help but feel sorry for Julie, it must have been tough to have a distant mother as a child. Chris couldn’t help but wonder what drove a mother to want to kill their children, he felt tears welling up in his eyes, he felt this need to protect Julie. Yet, Chris was filled with gratitude for having such a loving mother. He only wished the same for Julie, but he had so many questions to her story, there was only one thing to do.
Taglist: @kelbabyblue
Just wanted to say that some of Julie’s life is based on mine so a lot of the OC characters will be like people from my actual life along with the description of Julie’s parent's divorce and childhood is an actual description of my life.
 I just felt like I can connect more towards this story that way and actually help myself with coping by imagining, what someone I look up to, would say about my situation. The main reason why I began writing this series in the first place.

4x14 episode thoughts
We’re back from hiatus! And I was finally able to sit down and watch the episode and I AM SO EXCITED BY THINGS!!!
“The navy. it brings out the sparkle of justice in your eyes” is such a cute line
Marco, you are a terrible businessman
I feel that all of the reasons that Greg lists to be in West Covina for his thesis are legitimate, personally. Being near Rebecca is probably a nice bonus. 
I do like that he apparently asked Heather to help out, given that she is very competent and no-bullshit kind of person.
Actually, the parallel “I’m not in love with Rebecca” scenes were a bit much, but I think they showed something kind of interesting in the extent to which the guys’ feelings are influencing all of them in their actions. Like Greg’s priority is very much the restaurant and Rebecca being nearby is more of a really nice bonus, Nathaniel’s volunteer work and interest in Rebecca are about equal since he started out doing it for her but is doing it more because it is the right thing to do while still be interested, and Josh is doing theater tech directly because of Rebecca. I don’t know if it is meant to be scaled like that, but I feel like it is, which is interesting.
Estrella judging Josh was the best.
I do like the set of Il Cabino. Not entirely sure when they started to use it, but it’s pretty
What is a cold chamber, exactly? What’s its purpose?
I feel bad for Valencia feeling let down about Beth’s surprise, but given rent and housing these days, it is a very big deal that you need to sit down and talk about.
“Quite an engagement” - not how you drop a hint, Valencia. Though I have to say, in this case rather that Valencia being concerned about appearances the way she was in her relationship with Josh, it seems just like she is ready to be with Beth for good, and part of her romantic hopes still include a proposal. She still loves those things, and she wants them for herself.
I don’t like ultimatums in general, but I do understand Valencia’s point, in that she knows what she wants with Beth right now, and she wants to know that they are on the same page, because she has been in a relationship where she waited and the other person didn’t know what they wanted/were happy to stay where they were, and she doesn’t want that again.
It was left unresolved, but I hope that they do get engaged/married. I wanna see Rebecca helping out at their wedding and killing it!
Valencia speaking from experience is both good advice to be cautious but also :(
Josh doing theater tech actually makes me happy. Sure, he’s doing it to be near Rebecca, but he’s so good at making people look and feel good about the best parts of themselves, that being part of a stage crew might actually be a good fit for him.
…though I would still prefer having him as a choreographer in some capacity because canonically, he is such a good dancer.
…Tim really does look like he has chicken legs in that suit. oh dear. I blame the bloomers.
“Our bulwark, our stalwart, our Walmart.” - i just like this wordplay
Nathaniel volunteering (getting volunteered?) for the play had me cackling. While I find the idea that he’s done musical theater before needs a little mental adjustment, I could see him doing it with a mental justification that it looks good on college applications (especially if he got cast in a lead role) and I can definitely see it being something he wouldn’t mention because it does not fit the image he wanted to portray.
Also him singing the alphabet - what a little bastard
Also what’s with that brightly patterned tie, Nathaniel? It’s not bad, I quite like it, but it’s much brighter than what he usually wears
Love Connie’s scarf flinging. And the scarf just keeps getting bigger and bigger until it’s a long cardigan.
Rebecca’s wearing red nail polish!
I love Paula’s interview outfit, it makes her look really good.
Chris!!! He is so tall! And he has a palate!
I love Valencia, Josh and Nathaniel’s expressions at the lyrics to Etta Mae’s Lament
Aunt Myrna reference!
oh Tim, your character song was not forgetful, I promise you that.
I love Paula’s faces though!
Darryl also has quite the palate - and the penmanship!
…canonically, Valencia and Nathaniel have now officially hung out and we did not see any exchanges? RUDE!
They have so much they could talk about! They are both good-looking people with body issues, image issues, and have experienced dramatic shifts in their relationships with Rebecca due to her initiating severely inappropriate kisses. The possibilities are endless!
Josh asking Rebecca to sign the Camp Canyon Grove playbill was super sweet, but I’m glad that it was one he got on eBay, instead of one he actually kept, because it’s mostly giving me very strong “Dear Joshua Felix Chan” vibes and uh…that’s not entirely great.
Nathaniel singing about being a saloon madam is GREAT. Sacrifice your dignity at the altar of love, dude. 
Not that you have much of it left. Which is not a bad thing - it’s good to be willing to sacrifice your dignity, builds character.
I have been wondering for a while now if they would have Rebecca write musical theater songs, and the fact that they are hinting at this pathway is really really exciting to me. Having her actually write the songs in her head and create a musical would be really, genuinely exciting.
“Someone else is singing my song” - oh my GOD my heart fluttered at that. I hope we get a full thing.
I am sad for Darryl but yes, Paula, know your worth!
Mindy-who-is-April! Good to see you as Darryl’s date. Hope things are going swimmingly.
Valencia makes a beautiful pirate bride, but can she actually be the pirate, instead? Because yikes those lyrics!
Paula’s face was exactly right.
I am genuinely sad we missed all of the songs that directly applied to Darryl and Paula’s situation
God, Rebecca’s saloon girl outfit is so cute, even if her song is so terrible.
WHAT’LL IT BE REPRISE!!!!! Called it!
I have mixed feelings about Greg’s revelation that everything he hated about the town was more of a projection and that as a result, he’s going to stay and run his father’s restaurant. Not because I don’t think it makes sense with his character, but I just get tired of the trope that the hometown is always the place you’ll end up again if you change your attitude. Sometimes, hometowns just suck.
But for Greg, who I think has been specifically described as a character who tries to be a caretaker, which running a restaurant that people love would be something that would fulfill him, so I think I’m good with it.
Every time I think I have a grasp on where the love quadrangle stuff is going, it gets a good shake, because while when Rebecca discusses the three guys, she treats it as if they are on the same plane, but when we see their different interactions, they are treated differently.
New tweak to the old theory: given that Greg now has confirmed a dream that is not linked to Rebecca at all, the next two episodes will be showing us what Nathaniel and Josh’s respective paths will be, so that we know that even though the guys might not end up with her, they have something that takes up their time and attention and fulfills them and it’s a good ending for them.
Preferably in that order, because I do still consider Josh to be part of the original series trifecta (Rebecca-Paula-Josh) and given how recent his affection for Rebecca is, I think that will come into play when he finds out what makes him happy and their relationship should be given some extra weight.
Now that Paula is interviewing at other firms, I still kind of hope that her, Nathaniel, and Darryl choose to separate from MountainTop and start their own firm. That could be really interesting and work well with their arcs. Nathaniel and Paula will make it successful, while Darryl gives them heart and makes them less scary to prospective clients.
I will still be very surprised if it ends up being an actual choice rather than a fourth or fifth option being taken, but given how the “true love is theater” concept got called out in this episode, I really am not sure where it’s gonna go. Still excited to find out!

a writing year in review: 2k18 edition
So I’m taking a minute to look back at all the writing I did this year and it has been a pretty spotty year for fanfic for me. Lots of long, blank spaces between weird surges of productivity. But! I did a lot of work on my original projects and also the boring adult responsibilities in my life (I changed jobs three times!!! I changed my name!!! I started going to therapy!!!!) and I pushed out some fic I really liked this year in spite of all that so, all things considered, I’m calling this one a win.
Without further ado, here is the breakdown of all the fic I’ve written this year plus a sad breakdown all of the geriatric WIPs looking at me with their big sad eyes, crossing their fingers for 2019. Hiding most of it under a cut because the rankings and WIP snippets got long.
2k18's Publication Stats for Fun & Profit:
This year I published 16 fanfics, all but one for SWTOR. 10 were brand new, started and finished in 2018, and 6 were old WIPS that have been marinating for Force only knows how long. That number is down from the 29 fics I published in 2017, but close to the 14 I published in 2016. 2015 was only 3 fics and 2014 was only 2. I have a total of 64 works published on AO3.
This year I published 34559 words for an average of about 2160 words per fic. This is extremely above my overall average of about 930 words per fic with a combined total of 59569 words published since I started posting fic publicly back in 2014.
So the number of fics may be lower this year but the number of words total and the average words in the fics I did publish went up! Please enjoy a review of the shit people liked most according to AO3 and then the stuff I personally liked most because I'm allowed to like my own writing, sue me.
2k18's Most Read Fics:
1. spoonful of sugar: Everyone gets sick sometimes; even big damn heroes. These are vignettes about the Jedi Knight's crew getting sick, getting treated, and getting better. (SWTOR)
I started writing this one when I got really sick during the summer of 2017 and I finally finished it this year! There's another part that I cut because it got way out of control that I'd like to one day add back in as a second chapter but I am okay with calling this one complete and maybe never doing that. This one is a nice combo of funny and a little bit sweet that I think is refreshing, like a cold, fruity drink on a hot summer's day. Here is my very favorite line from this whole fic because it is so delightfully dumb:
“Scourge,” Rhese tries and fails to sound as though he has some degree of command over his own voice right now. “Get off my dick.”
2. filling the table: They have a saying back on Corellia that the only way you can ever really know a man is by taking his credits. They also have a saying that you should never play cards with a Corellian because Corellians always cheat, but she's betting Doc never heard that one. (SWTOR)
I think I started this one all the way back in like 2014 or 2015. I can't remember now but it was a long time ago and this piece of shit has morphed a million times since then. I must have rewritten the ending about a million times.
I really wanted to capture the desperation of the Balmorran Resistance while I was doing the character work with this, the sense of limited resources and hard living, and I am pretty happy with the result. I'm also pretty happy with the characterization work here, the little snippets they are both revealing to each other and the bigger snippets they aren't. I'm still not entirely happy with the white spaces in this one. I feel like I was a little too sparse and there are lots of places that don't flow if you don't already know what isn't being said, but I am more or less happy with this one! Here is my favorite bit because of the doublespeak foreshadowing their future relationship that was definitely on purpose:
Four hands later, she’s fifty credits richer and Doc is rooting around in his pocket for something to scribble another IOU on. She knows he’ll never make good on it, but Rea’s happy to accept his empty promises if it keeps him playing the game. She’s overdue for a bit of fun.
3. take back what the kingdom stole:  Alliance Commander Nirea Velaran has always had a talent for burning bridges. When Theron comes to her after Nathema to pay for his sins, she finds herself wondering whether some bridges can't be repaired. (SWTOR)
Hey look! Something I started and finished in the same calendar year!! This one grew out of a very stupid joke that I ended up not even making until the end of the fic. At first I wanted to draw that bit, but I got frustrated with my lacking artistic talent so I wrote it instead and it turned into one of my fave things I've written. It has nice scenery and character growth and intimate friendships that have a real impact on their emotional lives! Hurt feelings aren't just for romance fam!! Anyway here's my favorite bit because it's one of the most Rea moments I've ever written:
He shoved her off his shoulder none-too-gently, scowling as he looked skyward, as if searching for another fleet of hostile ships to arrive and grant him the sweet release of death. When none came, he settled for another hearty gulp of whiskey. He had to be halfway to knackered by now. “You’re insufferable,” he grumbled.
“I know.” She smiled a smile that felt damn near genuine and collapsed back against the grass, swinging her legs out over the crevasse.
“I don’t even feel bad about all this anymore.” Theron complained. “You deserve it.”
Rea only laughed. A real laugh, all the way up from her belly, and it felt so fucking good.
Theron looked at her from the corners of his bloodshot eyes, suspicious and too clever by half. “Fuck,” he swore, shaking his head. “You just mindfucked me, didn’t you?”
2k18 Author’s Choice:
1. when the wicked play. After witnessing his first real lightsaber duel, Doc reflects on the contradictions of what the Jedi are supposed to be and the realities of fighting a war. (SWTOR)
This might be one of my very favorite things I've written ever. In case it wasn't clear by now, I am pretty preoccupied with making myself feel the weight of the violence and uncertainty and war that plagues you in this game. It all feels so clean and sanitary in the game because it's a game, but it's something I always want to explore and make visceral in the stories I tell about the game. I am also obsessed with Jedi and the mythos and conflicting ideas that must surround them inside the story's universe. This was a fun way to marry the two and do a bit of character work at the same time. I'm also pretty proud of this one structurally, with how contained and bookended it is. [high fives self] Anyway here's my favorite part because it's some of the only action I've written that feels like it captures the brutal urgency of how I imagine actual lightsaber combat and also says a little bit about my girl Rea via the way she fights:
Rea is little more than a blur of blue light as she collides with the Sith across the field, her sabers swinging too fast for Doc’s eyes to track. She’s hammering her enemy from every side, pushing him back and back and back. Her assault is savage and relentless and there is nothing like grace or elegance in any of it. It isn’t beautiful; it’s violence. Ugly, brutal violence.
The whole thing is over in less than a minute.
Blue meets red meets blue meets blue meets blue meets red and then the Sith’s head is hitting the floor with a muffled thump. It happens so abruptly Doc doesn’t even realize it’s ended until the rest of the body collapses a heartbeat later.
2. shadows settle on the place that you left. In the wake of her father’s death, Nyria Ryder tries to reconcile the man she knew with the shadow he left hanging over her. (Mass Effect: Andromeda)
Look! Something that isn't SWTOR! (The only thing I wrote this year that wasn't for SWTOR.) I have a whole bunch of feelings about Alec Ryder and had a really good time porting Rea over to this game and seeing the ways his presence in her life altered who she is and the ways that it didn't. Also I have a lot of feelings about SAM. This is probably peak self-indulgence but I still feel like this is some efficient sketching of Nyria's character and Alec's and their particular relationship and I'm pretty proud of it. Also I'm always a slut for complicated familial relationships. Here is my favorite bit because it's such a nice illustration of who Ria is and an important turning point for her character:
She decided to be kinder to SAM than the universe had been to her. He was her brother, just as much as Rhys, and she was all he had. She would have to make sure herself was enough.
“He believed in us both,” she told him what he needed to hear, even though it wasn’t true. Then she made a promise she could not keep, because she knew he needed that too: “You and me are going to figure this thing out. Just you watch. We’re gonna make Alec proud.”
3. take back what the kingdom stole:  Alliance Commander Nirea Velaran has always had a talent for burning bridges. When Theron comes to her after Nathema to pay for his sins, she finds herself wondering whether some bridges can't be repaired. (SWTOR)
All the same stuff I said above applies here still. Glad we can all agree this one was nice.
State of the WIPs
Just for fun I did a dive into my WIP folder to see what I'm setting myself up for in 2019! Only it wasn't very fun at all because there is so much really old stuff in here!!!!!! Good luck to future me because past me really left you with the bag girl! Good luck carrying the weight of hopes and dreams and stories unfulfilled!!
I have a total of 48 fics in progress right now. The fandom breakdown is as follows, ranked from the most to the least: Star Wars: The Old Republic (35), Dragon Age (8), Mass Effect: Andromeda (4), Fallout 4 (1). And because I'm a masochist, I looked at the dates on all this shit too. Here's the breakdown of what year all of these things were started:
2014: 4 fics
2015: 9 fics
2016: 15 fics
2017: 11 fics
2018: 9 fics
That sound you hear is me sobbing in the distance. 2014!!! What the fuck!!!!! I am gonna finish those four fics this year if it kills me. We aren't living like this anymore. Please enjoy some samples from the WIP folder with absolutely no context:
“You carry sleeping pills in your pocket?”
“For my wife. Maybe you’ve met her? About this high--” Doc raised his hand half a foot over his own head “--brown hair, blue eyes, great ass.”
Ignoring the commentary on his sister’s figure and the extreme overestimation of her height, Rhese nodded. “I may have seen her around.”
“Well if you see her again, you tell her to come home. Her family’s worried.”
Do you hear that Rea? Your family is worried. Rhese wondered if she could feel their concern, their anguish. Was she searching for them as they searched for her? She’d always been good at hiding, but she’d never vanished completely before. A hole in the Force where her warm, fervent energy should have been.
He felt cold. Really alone for the first time in his life. Careful what you wish for, Liss had always said. You might just get it.
Ossus is important.
Rea feels it when she falls out of hyperspace, that shift, that tug of something just behind her navel. The familiar weight of destiny, settling like a stone in the pit of her stomach. It leaves her breathless, white-knuckled and gripping the shuttle’s controls, her skin prickling under the cold caress of dread.
She wasn’t expecting this story to have a happy ending—a colony of Jedi on the eve of war? she’s danced that dance enough times to know the steps by now—but she wasn’t expecting anything so bad as the draw of destiny.
Fate has never been anything but cruel to her. Feeling it here, now? This is going to be worse than she imagined.
This is how you deal with failure.
You just do.
You get up in the morning and brush your teeth. You train until your legs wobble beneath you. You choke down your nutripaste and ask Simms about his niece. You congratulate Tarinik on her promotion. You laugh too loud at Vortena’s shit jokes. And when Beniko’s eyes follow a little too close, you blow her a kiss like it doesn’t matter at all.
You keep moving forward because standing still will kill you. Because life is a race and if you slow down for even a second, death will catch up.
Nirea Velaran is not ready to die.
She is not maleficarum, but she is changed. Something is awake inside her now, and the whispers are louder each time she touches the Fade. Sweet, coaxing whispers full of promises. Some of them sound like her mother.
Take care of your brother, Niria. You’re all he’s got.
In the morning, Qarric wakes with a pounding head and an empty sleeve. He never asks, but he watches her more sharply, reprimands her more often, demands more of her in training.
When she is fourteen, blade tucked into the top of her worn boot, he gives her a warning. “You aren’t as strong as you think,” he says. “No one is.”
“Is it much farther?” Ria jabbed the bladed end of her stave--a fancy enchanted thing Vivienne had insisted on--into the sodden ground and squinted through the trees, praying for a glimpse of the promised coast. The air smelled of salt and death and the sea, but she hadn’t seen a single crashing wave yet.
“A few more miles yet,” Blackwall answered irritably. Ria had elected to blame the weather for his foul mood. “Same as it was five minutes ago, Your Worship.”
“And five minutes before that,” Varric added.
“Conditions are much safer inside the ship, Nyria.”
“Didn’t come all the way out here to be safe, SAM.” Another rock plinked hollowly against the wall of the prefab. “We came to see new planets and shit. That’s what I’m doing.”
“There is not much to see at night.”
“Not much to see during the day either. Sure as hell nothing worth dying for.” She huffed a bitter not-quite-laugh.
She spoke before he could even open his mouth to ask the question. “You’re overthinking it, little brother.”
“We’re twins,” he said, mostly out of habit. “And I’m taller.”
“Your hair is taller.”
“This is serious, Nyria.”
“So is your hair.” She reached out almost absent-mindedly to ruffle it, eyes still fixed on her omni-tool, but he dodged out of the way.

good birthday! busy, but good! ty everybody for coming!!! ✨💖✨
this is a ridiculously long post, and it keeps getting longer. so, everything’s under the cut
on the day itself, in the morning, i went to petsmart because we found fleas on one of the dogs last night, so i (as the only one in town with money or a credit card) had to go spend almost all of my money between flea meds and flea shampoo. i was NOT expecting to spend ~400 bucks this week on doctor shit and flea shit. but i gotta, so... :/ and probably more in the future! gghuhugh
then i came home and did some more computer cleaning & organizing. i have... so much of that to do........ 
then @lordsoth42 came over! and we went to the mall and pizza schmizza (they got some, i got NOTHING because CURSE my stomach) and then got donuts. 
then we went back to my place and people started showin’ up fer my low-key party! @onilinkplus, @angrymamabear, @soycoffeewithcoffee, danny (i don’t think he’s got a bloggo here, but he’s got a twitch over at... um... kazstein), thank you all so much for comin’ and hanging out! and bringing food and gifts and stuff!
we got to play ARMS, 12 orbits, a lil’ bit of Once Upon A Time, Sumer (interesting platformer/boardgame mix), watch kody play Snake Pass, and see the demo of Octopath Traveller thanks to Danny having the energy to play it (which, by the way, that looks Goddamn Gorgeous!) 
then sleepover w/ tristan because Wow Eugene Is Far Away, Six Hours Of Driving In One Day Is No Fun! but also more time with tristan!
on the 25th i woke up super early again thanks to Stomach Hates Me Syndrome and i got to cleaning up, which was nice. i still have some more to do but i figure i may as well do that after everything is over this weekend. but i did get like. all the plates and shit put away so there’s tablespace again.
some lowkey hangouts with tristan before they went home and I went to hang out with @jirajara at the woodburn outlet mall to find shoes for her... i did fairly good in not spending money, by which i mean i was very thankful she & her crew paid fer my lunch, and i avoided spending money on trinkets and shoes and this one FUCKING BEAUTIFUL pleather light pink jacket.... anyway it was fun, if tiring. i forget how tiring Looking For A Good [insert specific item here] can be when you’re not doing it over like... years... on the internet..... 
then today i got to go to an actual SPA with super swanky everything and have a MASSAGE for the first time ever w @becna n’ @keketar. the wet sauna is not an experience i’d pay to repeat but the dry sauna & hot tubs? good stuff. burn my skin off. and the massage was really great! my masseuse was really fun to talk to and we just talked about all sorts of stuff and the back & head parts of the massage i could definitely see being useful in a headache/chiropractic sense in the future. 
sarah got me a Gay Flag Colored Lovebird bag......;;;; i love it.......;;;;;; 😍💖✨💯🐦
an’ then sarah n’ i went to my place and had a low key Craft Party wherein we tried to get each other hooked on anime we haven’t been able to talk to anyone about: me w/ revolutionary girl utena and sarah w/ voltron:legendary defenders. what I learned is, I love pidge and am totally down for this mystical bullshit AI tiger mech thing. my headcanon so far (probably easily proven wrong, i’m on like episode five) is that a lot of the “mystical” connection is [a.] propaganda (what better propaganda than DESTINY?) and [b.] a result of a networked/distributed intelligence not unlike the geth from mass effect.  
but also early utena episodes are so lighthearted! i always focus on the later stuff and forget how... innocent it seems at first. additionally, paying extra special attention to chuchu and anthy after reading a bunch of meta is a fucking TREAT like? episode four with the lil’ elephant doodle?? anthy!! an’ nanami is great also, and just how EXTRA all these highschoolers are.... my poor children....
i also learned/recalled that needlefelting... is a lot... of work...... i’m basically going to have to reskin my needlefelt mew entirely to make it look decent again. it does look REALLY nice again once i do that, but s’just gonna be a lot of work. (maybe this time i won’t like... have it on my bed and in high-use areas. there was so much pilling, oh my god.) 
oh! and sarah’s being so nice and letting me share her netflix! and merlot’s gift was adding me to her fam for the nintendo subscription service!! this is a good year for me & freeloading media, i guess :P (but srs, thank yooou both!) 
anyway now i have a lot to clean up, and work tomorrow. hopefully i’ll be able to vacuum once i get home: we NEED a big vacuuming. ‘specially since the doggo parasite circus is in town...
and birthday celebrations are extended because i’ll see becca on monday and there may or may not be a present involved there, but there sure as heck will be cute lizards, and really, what else could a girl ask for? 
then it’s tuesday and the.... ct.... and man why is medicine so expensive
but. overall.
i’m so glad to have my vivacity, my motivation, my drive and passion back. last year on my birthday i hadn’t planned anything really and it just happened to be a nice coincidink that sarah was headin’ down to eugene for a concert anyway. when i’m under like 70% planning things, hosting things, going to things is just... so... too.... much.... but when i’m 100% (mentally, at least, lmao i hate my stomach right now) it’s one of my FAVORITE things to do. people!!! friends!!!!! happy making!! i just feel... very satisfied and content in a way i haven’t been able to access in a while. s’a shame that my stomach has decided to stage a civil war on my esophagus, but... it’s discomfort, something i have to live with, not a drain of my life that i’m living. ya feel me? 
like, FUCK! this linked post was my birthday two years ago. it wasn’t weird because ANYTHING except depression! depression fucked me up! i didn’t spend it doing things i love with people i love because i couldn’t DO love! 
the b-day before that was good but lowkey because i couldn’t plan much, and it was surrounded by me just being.... tired... which was depression shit
and i think... the b-day before that was before i’d gotten depressed? i think late 2014-2015 was my first Major Episode... but i’m not sure because i started this blog sept. 2014. i do distinctly remember my internal grade-o-meter being off as like... an early sign of my troubles. 
this ended up so long haha
i’m so grateful that all y’all awesome friends of mine (both who i mention here because i saw them this past few days and those who are not mentioned) stuck with me despite the Depression Fog. y’all deserve the best and i’m honored y’all let me into your lives.
i’m so happy i have so many projects i’m jazzed to work on, even though the work is sloggish and boring i can DO IT and BE HAPPY that i’m doing it?!? it’s been so long since i could do that
lately i feel like a little kid who cries because they learned that those cool snakes have to eat those sweet little mice. everything is so new and fresh and lovely again.... like rediscovering your first favorite teddy bear or something in the closet. just a persistent strong warmth
i’m so lucky 💖

Mechanical Lullaby ~Last Day~
Tumblr media
Mechanical Lullaby Event Story (12/07)
Part 1~4 | 5~8 | 9~12 | 13~16 | 17~22 | 23~26
Part 23 – Awaken
Jane (Izumi Iori): Fabra, over here!
Fabra (Nikaido Yamato): ...... How's Cielo!?
Terra (Nanase Riku): Fabra-san...! Cielo is... Cielo is...!
Fabra: Terra, calm down.
Fabra: I say that but, his head is badly injured... The risk is high...
Fabra: We have to carry him to my laboratory. Gimme a hand.
Fabra: Jane, you call Novem and Octo. Bring them here using April's vehicle.
Jane: Understood.
Fabra: Why did this happen now of all times......
Fabra: The 'time' is close and yet... Cielo must be repaired as fast as possible.
Novem (Momo): ...... Fabra-san, what happened!?
Octo (Tsunashi Ryunosuke): Is Cielo-kun okay!?
Fabra: It's pretty bad......
Novem: Is the malfunction so bad that even Fabra-san can't repair him?
Fabra: I haven't checked all the parts, but it's definitely bad.
Fabra: What's more, we don’t have time.
Novem: ...... Time?
Fabra: Ah, no. Anyway, please hurry and repair him.
Novem: ...... I understand. I'm going to give it my all.
Octo: I will do my best too!
Fabra: Thank you. I'm counting on you.
―― Some days later
Fabra: You call this fixed...?
Novem: I have fixed him, but......
Fabra: Cielo, wake up.
Octo: Cielo-kun, please wake up.
Terra: Cielo......
Jane: ............
Novem: Good afternoon―!
Dissen (Yuki): Hello.
Octo: Good afternoon!
Terra: Everyone!
Jane: Good afternoon.
Novem: How's Cielo?
Jane: He hasn't woken up yet......
Novem: I see......
Dissen: Here, a gift.
Terra: A bouquet? Ah, it's "Mary!"
Jane: There's so many... Why?
Novem: Isn't it amazing!? It's the result of our research!
Novem: Dissen-san did almost everything though.
Dissen: Well, yeah.
Dissen: But it's thanks to Novem and Octo that I could grow this many.
Octo: No, I just helped a little! It's all thanks to Dissen-san and Novem-san.
Dissen: Terra. Flowers have a language of their own.
Dissen: The meaning of the flower marigold is, 'the brightness of life.'
Dissen: Let's hope Cielo will wake up soon. (1)
Terra: The brightness of life......
Terra: Cielo, open your eyes......
Jane: Terra......
Terra: Let's sing again... Let's sing our song together.
Terra: La~♪ Lala~♪ La~♪
*clack clack clack*... *whee――*
Cielo: ...... Terra.
Cielo: That song......
Terra: ...... Cielo!
Terra: Yes... It's our song!
Cielo: ...... Aah... That's right... I remember now.
Terra: ...... Cielo... I'm so glad!
Fabra: Looks like Terra and Cielo have remembered their 'duty'......
Fabra: Now, my last 'duty' is――
Part 24 - Fabra and Cielo
A long time ago, in this world, humans and robot dolls lived together.
The robot dolls were there to help the humans. But when the humans started to use them as tools in wars, the robot dolls started to demonstrate their true values liberally. As a result, the world wars intensified, and everything was destroyed.
"We can't go on like this."
That's what everyone thought, and yet the world kept falling into ruin each day.
"We can't go on like this."
A robot doll researcher, Doctor ――, with their few trusted companions, started a project called the "Accordatura Project."
They forcibly put the few remaining humans to sleep. Meanwhile, the robot dolls replaced the humans, and repaired the environment so that humans could live there once again.
Their companions were divided into two groups,
One group utilized their brains and abilities, becoming a base for the robot dolls.
The other group believed one day, when they would wake again, they could lead the people so that war would never happen again. They remained human and fell into a deep sleep.
And then, when the tuning was over, and the environment was ready, the clock tower will become a music box.
With its sound, the sleeping humans will be awakened, and the robot dolls that have finished their 'duties' will fall asleep. So that they would never be tools of war ever again.
To play the sound of the music box, the 'duty' of two robot dolls with beautiful singing voices――
Cielo: ...... Hey, Fabra.
Fabra: Cielo. Are you alright now?
Cielo: There's one last thing I want to ask.
Fabra: How sudden. Well, it's the last one, right? I shall listen.
Cielo: You told Terra and I to recall our 'duty.'
Fabra: Yeah.
Cielo: Why didn't you just tell us, instead of having us recall it by ourselves?
Cielo: There shouldn't have been any problems even if you told us when you awakened us.
Fabra: You've got a point. However, I vaguely felt that it would be meaningless.
Cielo: Meaningless?
Fabra: Yeah. It took quite a long time until you two woke up, but when I could finally awaken you, you had lost your memories. I was surprised, and impatient because I had to continue on with the project.
Cielo: Hahaha. I'd like to see your impatient face.
Fabra: Don't make fun of me... But halfway through, I started to think what if that was part of the plan.
Cielo: Who the hell changed the damn plan... Don't tell me, that Doctor?
Fabra: ...... Yeah. I think he did.
Cielo: Why? What if we didn't wake up until the end......
Fabra: If that was the case, we prepared a substitute to replace you, and have him play the song to the whole city with his performance.
Cielo: I see......
Fabra: ...... That guy, I heard he was a "bright person," but he's such a contradicting person.
Cielo: Then, that substitute... Jeune, he might have refused to play the song of the end?
Fabra: I don't know......
Cielo: Why!? If he didn't do it, our plan would......
Fabra: Yeah. It would have been messed up. This world would become the robot doll's world instead.
Fabra: ...... But, the Doctor was probably okay with that. (2)
Cielo: Huh?
Fabra: That person, they liked the robot dolls. In fact, they probably loved them.
Fabra: That's why they couldn't stand it when the robot dolls were one-sidedly used for the humans' convenience.
Fabra: You get that feeling too, right? It should be carved into our hearts, we have been through everything after all. (3)
Cielo: ...... Yeah. In fact, if the humans didn't order the robot dolls to, they wouldn't have hurt anyone......
Cielo: Actually, some of them are even more human-like than real humans. They are kind and thoughtful robot dolls......
Fabra: Did you change your mind?
Cielo: ...... No. Nevertheless, I still want to do continue this project. I don't want to lose my hope towards humankind.
Fabra: I see......
Cielo: Are you relieved?
Fabra: Well, I am. I feel as if a load has been taken off my shoulders. But, are you really okay with it?
Cielo: Yes. I will sing. We will sing the song only we can sing.
Fabra: ............
Cielo: Shall we dream? Until the humans put an end to their quarrel, and awaken us someday.
Part 25 - "Duty"
Cielo: La~♪ Lala~♪ La~♪
Terra: La~♪ Lala~♪ La~♪
Martin (Izumi Mitsuki): Jane-san.
Jane: Martin.
Martin: This singing, it's Terra and Cielo, right?
Jane: Yes.
Martin: It's so gentle. It gives me a nostalgic feeling somehow......
Jane: You're right.
Martin: Jane-san, even though I only asked you once, you have taken care of Terra this whole time, thank you very much!
Jane: No, I really enjoyed it.
Jane: We don't have a concept of "friendship" inside of us, but I feel like I got a similar experience from him.
Martin: Terra is a good guy, right!? ...*yawn*, I'm getting sleepy......
Martin: Until now, I felt sort of unsecured, but now I think I will be able to sleep in peace.
Jane: Yes, I feel the same.
Martin: Good night. Jane-san.
Jane: Good night.
〜〜〜♪
Fabra: Jeune.
Fabra: You should prepare to sleep too.
Jeune (Rokuya Nagi): ...... Playing this song, is my 'duty.'
Fabra: You know about the 'duty?'
Jeune: Vaguely. Once I heard the melody from the clock tower, I remembered it clearly.
Fabra: ............
Jeune: ...... Don't worry. I will sleep properly.
Fabra: Then it's fine......
Jeune: Even if I'm just a substitute, I still want to fulfil my 'duty.'
Fabra: I see......
Fabra: Saying this now is meaningless, but when you were awakened, I felt so relieved. Thank you, for waking up that time.
Jeune: Worst case, if I'm there, we would still manage somehow. I'm just needed in the worst of times, aren't I.
Fabra: Still just as conflicting until the end, huh?......
Jeune: Fufu. I'm just enjoying our talk.
Jeune: I'm sorry for taking your time. Good night, Fabra.
Fabra: It's okay. Night, Jeune.
Jeune: ... Every time I tried to play this song, it felt like it would be the end, that's why I always hesitated to play it......
Jeune: The sound of the clock tower's music box and those two singing are the keys of this plan.
Jeune: My sound is… just a reserve......
Jeune: I have no choice. That was my 'duty.'
Jeune: So that the robot dolls can dream sweat dreams, all I can do is to perform with all my might.
April (Yotsuba Tamaki): I'm so sleepy I can't... Let me sleep here......
Meir (Osaka Sougo): You can't! We should sleep in that place!
April: I want to eat pudding before I sleep......
Meir: You just ate your last pudding, you know. Ah, there's my special cookies, do you want to eat that?
April: Anything but that......
Meir: Why... I made it for you......
April: This is Terra and Cielo's singing, right?
Meir: Yes, it is. It's so beautiful and sweet......
April: I feel like I'll have good dreams.
Meir: Yes......
Meir: April-san, my 'role' is a chef, but in the end, I couldn't make a delicious original recipe, I'm so sorry.
Meir: I'm happy you helped me taste-test my cooking. Thank you very much!
April: Haha, you don't need to worry about that. If there's an opportunity, I will taste your cooking again someday.
Meir: Yes! I will definitely cook a delicious meal! Good night, April-san.
April: Yeah. Night, Meir.
Novem (Momo): Dissen-san, you're bringing that girl?
Novem: Wouldn't it wither?
Dissen (Yuki): I planted some seeds here so it will be okay. And Novem's insects are here too.
Dissen: This "Camellia" is always with me, I don't want to leave it~. You get it, don't you?
Novem: If you're ok with it then it’s fine.
Dissen: Novem, you always spoil me, huh?
Novem: Well, Dissen-san wouldn't listen to me anyway, right?
Dissen: That's not true though.
Novem: That is true! Wait, why are we fighting now of all times.
Dissen: Fufu. You're right.
Novem: At first, I thought you were a weird robot doll, but taking care of a great researcher like Dissen-san wasn't bad!
Dissen: It wasn't bad, that's all? Weren't you supposed to say, "But I really like Dissen-san!"
Novem: Ahaha! You're so helpless, geez. I really like you, Dissen-san!
Dissen: Thank you―. I like you too.
Dissen: I'll be happy if lots of plants grow the next time I wake up.
Novem: You're right! I'll be happy if there’ll be lots of insects and animals!
Dissen: Then, we should sleep now. Good night, Novem.
Novem: Good night, Dissen-san.
Octo (Tsunashi Ryunosuke): Augus-san.
Augus (Yaotome Gaku): Hey, Octo.
Octo: The clock tower was made for this 'time,’ wasn’t it.
Augus: Looks like it. The staff I asked you to check on that time was actually the wind-up key for the music box.
Octo: To think that this tower was a music box, I was surprised.
Augus: Me too. To think that there's a trick to it.
Augus: I've been living here for long time, but I've never realized.
Octo: Augus-san, you are not going to sleep?
Augus: ...... I'm watching over the music box so that it’ll keep working until those two finish singing. This is my last 'duty.'
Augus: It looks like I was set up to be the last robot who would fall asleep.
Octo: I see... Thank you for your hard work.
Octo: Then, I will sleep first.
Augus: Yeah. Ah, wait.
Octo: What is it?
Augus: I promised Novem to praise you for developing the insect robots.
Augus: You did such an amazing job.
Octo: ... Thank you very much! I'm so happy!
Octo: Augus-san, good night.
Augus: Yeah. Good night.
Part 26 - Lullaby
Fabra: It's been a long time since we were awakened.
Fabra: Now, my long lasting 'duties' will finally come to an end.
Fabra: The very first robot doll I awakened was Augus.
Fabra: It really helped when his thoughts had been programed to not realize the tricks in the clock tower.
Fabra: That man who became Augus’ base, it was just as he said… He was also an excellent man...
Fabra: I tried to awaken Terra and Cielo afterwards, but they wouldn't wake up for some reason.
Fabra: I was so confused at the time. I ended up awakening other robot dolls first.
Fabra: It's like what I said to Cielo, that was probably part of the plan too.
Fabra: I wanted to ask, but I have no means of knowing, it's too bad.
Fabra: ............
Fabra: ...... It's time.
Fabra: Everyone, thank you for everything.
Fabra: Good night. Sweet dreams......
Terra: Cielo, I'm happy I can sing with you again!
Cielo: Me too.
Cielo: I'm glad I can fulfill my 'duty' with Terra.
Terra: Seriously! Cielo, you were so reckless! If you had been broken that time, we wouldn't have been able to sing together like this.
Cielo: Like I had any other choice. My body moved on its own.
Terra: Cielo.
Terra: Our song, will it reach everyone?
Cielo: Yeah, it will definitely reach them. Are you worried?
Terra: Just a little......
Cielo: ...... You worked hard and practiced many times, it will be okay.
Terra: ...... Wha!? How did you know!?
Cielo: Ahaha.
Cielo: ...... It's about time for us to sleep too. Good night, Terra.
Terra: Good night. Cielo.
Once the sound became silence...
The robot dolls in the city fell into a deep sleep.
Years passed――
This is a city where humans live―― a world without robot dolls.
At the heart of the city, a huge ancient clock tower soars into the sky.

Proofread by @ousama-pudding Thank you very much!!
(1) ok Marigold usually means memorials for lost loved ones (makes it sound like cielo died hahah) but Japanese has different flower language sometimes so let’s just let it go :)
(2) Fabra doesn’t use specific pronoun for the doctor so we decided to use 'they'!
(3) Fabra meant that since they were based on the doctor’s companions, they should have the same feelings towards robot dolls, but he doesn’t say it straight out.
I had a lot of fun translating this. Big thanks to each of you for taking the time to read! Merry Early Christmas and Happy Birthday Yuki!! ❄💕
