Hi, I'm Y/n Gallagher. And this is my story.

I live in Southside Chicago, and it's just as shitty as you'd think. Places getting robbed and ex convicts, drug addicted fools at the local bar. The guy and his wife who run the bar however...they're my best friends.

I work down at the Kash n grab, my brother Ian stocks the fridge and works the register. I on the other hand, loading orders in and off the truck! And Security!?

Don't get me wrong, I do have fun when Mickey Gallagher comes in and gives me something to do.

___

"Y/n, don't do anything." Kash said. "Just let him grab whatever he wants and he'll leave."

"What the fuck? Why the hell am I here if you don't want to perform security!"

Y/n pushed herself away from the counter, "This is bullshit, I'm gonna start seeing a real paycheck."

She moved closer to Mickey, he was snatching chips and other snacks off the shelves.

"Planning on paying for that?" Y/n asked.

"Nah, I'm putting it on my tab."

"You don't have an account here Milkovich."

"Exactly." He snickered

"If you dont put that shit down...then the police will be called and you'll get your're ass thrown in jail like your father." With that she smiled and leaned against the shelves.

"You know where I live if you have a problem, shit head."

Mickey turned and began shoveling things into his box, feeling a hand grab his shoulder and pull him back.

"Get your fucking hands off me!" He yelled, shoving her against the freezers.

Kash moved around the counter, attempting to help y/n.

"Stay down, Gallagher. Hey, dont try to be a fuckin hero." Mickey yelled, pointing at Kash.

They watched as he left the store, Kash helped her up as Mick's head passed the window. Y/n rubbed the back of her neck, sneering at the door.

"What did I say?" Kash asked, "Don't stop Mickey when he comes in here."

"This is bullshit, why the fuck do you allow him to just walk in here and take whatever he wants? He's good for nothing and you act like he's above the law!"

___

Y/n stood outside the Milkovich house with a crowbar at highnoon, she second guessed her decision before walking up the front stoop and kicking in the door.

Y/n looked around and grimace at the of their home, when sudden snoring came from behind a door. She opened it and her eyes landed on Mickey sleeping in his bed. Y/n came closer and with one swift motion she pulled the blankets off of him.

"Ah! What the hell!?" He yelped. "Y/n?"

"Get up!"

"Give me a second..." His hand rose up right before he grabbed her and pulled her down with him, and snatched the crowbar from her.

Mickey was about to swing, when he stopped. He slowly brought it back down when he saw he flinch.

They stared at eachother for a minute before they began removing their clothes, Mickey took her by the pantlegs and pulled them off of her.

He released his member from his shorts and lined himself up with her entrance, slowly sliding in and out.

"Fuck..." He groaned, enjoying the feeling of Y/n's tight pussy.

MIckey gripped her hips thrusting harder, his head tipped back and sweat dripping down his body.

"God, Gallagher...you're so fuckin tight."

Y/n pushed back against him as he helled her hair, she moved her hips in unison with his so the tip of his cock hit her G-spot.

Mickey thrusted harder, leaning down to get a better angle. He pushed her head down into the pillows and with one last hard thrust he spilled his cum over her back.

Out of breath, he layed down next to her and chuckled.

"What was it you were coming in here to kick my ass for?"

Jay stared at you at the bar talking to some guy that was new to the firehouse. You were just being nice but that pissed Jay off even more. You were his but only you and him knew about it.

"Jay, man are you alright"? Kevin came up behind him with his hand on Jay's shoulder.

"I'm fine". Jay narrowed his eyes at you just when you laughed and put your hand on the guys arm.

"You sure? Looks like you want to go rip that guys head off". Kevin took a sip of his beer.

"No, I'm fine. Excuse me". Jay chugged the rest of his beer and left Kevin at the table. Going over to you and the new guy.

"Excuse us". Jay grabbed you by the arm and drug you to the stocking room. He closed the door and turned around.

"What are doing? I was talking". You huffed, crossing your arms over your chest.

"I see the way you were talking. Touching and flirting with him. Just to piss me off". Jay was steaming. Yet you were getting wet, you loved it when Jay was mad. Made the sex....rough.

"I wasn't flirting. Just being nice and welcoming". You smiled and went to walk out the door. But Jay slammed it.

"Jay"? You gasped.

"You're not going anywhere". Jay growled, backing you up to the nearest wall.

"Jay, stop". You giggled, putting your hand on his hard chest. Playing around like this was the biggest turn on ever.

"That's assaulting a police officer. Put your hands behind your back now". Jay pulled out his handcuffs and proceeded to try and put them on you.

"Stop.  I didnt do anything". You rolled your eyes.

"You have the right to remain silent".

"I know my rights, asshole".

Jay jerked your chin for you to look at him. "Filthy mouth you got there". He smirked and roughly kissed you. Biting your bottom lip as he pulled away.

"Jay". It came out as a moan more than protest.

"Let's go". He slung the door open and headed towards the front. You still cuffed.

"Jay"? Adam questioned confused.

"She assaulted me. Time to learn a lesson". Jay chuckled as he walked on to the door. Adam stood there scratching his head still confused.

Jay walked you to his truck, opened the door and pushed you in the backseat.

"Pig". You sneered with a laugh.

"That's it". Jay got in behind you, closing the door. He pushed you backwards on your stomach. Grabbing your legs and bring your ass on his lap.

"This is for all the trouble you caused". Jay gave your right ass cheek a wack with his palm. Then another and another. Until you were squirming under his touch. Your ass cheek burned.

"Jay, stop. Someone will see". You squirmed trying to get away.

"No one will notice if you're quiet. So are you going to behave now, little girl"? He asked before giving your left ass cheek a slap.

"Yes, sir". You moaned when Jay rubbed your ass, making the stinging and burning slowly go away.

"Good girl".

"Can you uncuff me, please"?

That landed you another smack to your bottom, this one was harder than the others and it made you tear up. "Are you permitted to talk"? Jay roughly pulled your pants down to your ankles.

"No, sir. I'm sorry sir". You sobbed out.

Jay had his hand on your bottom still rubbing the sore spot. He reached down with his other hand and grabbed into his bag on the floor. You turned your head to see what he was doing but all you could see was something shine in his hand.

Jay grabbed the metal butt plug from his bag, he brought it to his mouth and spit on it. He opened your butt cheeks with his hand and spit on your tight little asshole. Gliding the metal toy across your hole. You sucked on your bottom lip, the anticipation was killing you. Jay had always talked about bringing toys into the bedroom but you never thought it would be something that went up your ass.

"Daddy"?

"You'll like this baby girl". He smirked, slowly pushing the metal plug into you. Your hole stretched. You relaxed the best you could but it was stretching to much.

"Jay"? You gasped as he pushed it further into you. Suddenly you felt full in the oddest way. But it was kinda turning you on. The way you squirmed, it moved inside you and hit a spot that made you moan out.

"I knew you would like it".

Jay pulled you up by your cuffs. Letting you sit on his lap, your bottom hurt so bad but you were soaking wet. The plug going in deeper.

"You going to be a good girl for daddy"? Jay took your chin in his hand.

"Yes, daddy". You shyly spoke.

"You want daddy to make you feel better"?

You looked at him with puppy dog eyes.

"Speak".

"Yes please, sir".

Jay brought out the cuff keys and uncuffed you at first. He took off your shirt and balled it up throwing it up front. Then he cuffed you back but your hands went up front now. Your wrist hurt when Jay pulled on them. You knew you would have bruises tomorrow at work.

"Lay down, let daddy take care of you". You did as you were told, laying down in the back seat. Jay slid your pants off the rest of the way throwing them with your shirt up front. He ran his hand down your body making you shiver. His cool hands on your warm body.

"Please, sir". You begged biting your lip. Jay shook his head and smacked your cheek. Your face burned a red place forming.

"No talking". Jay licked his lips and slowly slide your thong down your legs. The cool air hitting your wet center.

Jay whistled as he saw the glistening wetness coming from the light down at your center. He parked directly under a street light just for this.

"Naughty little girl". He snaked his finger in between your slit. Gliding his finger through your pussy lips. Easing his middle finger in your tight little wet hole.

Jay pushed your legs apart so he could get a better view. He loved your pussy. Couldnt get enough of it. One time he made you sit on his face and ate you out for an hour. At first you thought you had smothered him but he was just laying there taking in your scent and the pleasure of you having orgasms under his tongue.

"I've always loved it when you squirm. It gets me excited, like you dont know what". Jay licked his lips watching his finger get wetter and wetter. Your legs started trembling, his forearm veins bulged as he  picked up his pace, fingers tapping your gspot faster bringing you to your first orgasm.

"Fuck. I didn't tell you to cum but that was beautiful". Jay chuckled. You thought he was going to let the orgasm go freely and unpunished but he didnt. You got a slap to your throbbing clit. Your back arched off the seat with a hiss.

"Stay". Jay pushed you back down rubbing your clit. He wanted so badly to bury his face into your pussy but he stopped himself. He couldnt reward you for cumming without his permission.

Jay quickly flung off his shirt, unbuckled his belt and pushed off his pants. His cock was hard and dripping with precum. He stroked it but his hand wasn't enough. He had to be inside you.

He climbed on the seat in between your legs pushing them farther apart. You looked down at him his thick cock was bulging, his vein pulsing. He was so ready for you.

Jay knew he didn't need to prepare you, he lined himself up and roughly pushed in.

"Aaah". You moaned out, jay clamped his hand over your mouth.

"Quiet, dont want to get caught. That'll end all the fun". You nodded.

Jay pounded into you rough and hard. His cock murdering your insides. The feeling of him made you quiver. You held onto the door hand for support. He was going so fast your head was beating into the door.

"Fuck, your pussy is just waiting to milk me. I can feel you clenching around me.  You better not cum just yet". Jay growled, squeezing one breast with his free hand. You shook your head.

But the way Jay was fucking you, there was no way you would last long. The tip of his cock was nudging your g-spot over and over. You wanted to cry out in pleasure but you knew you would be punished. So you held on for a few more seconds then you exploded all over Jay, his cock and the backseat. Jay pulled out and you gushed the seat. Jay laughed evil, he rubbed your clit rough and made you keep squinting. He squeezed your clit between his fingers. You shuttered as your orgasm left you breathless.

"Now that was beautiful, little girl. Just what daddy needed". He laughed, removing his hand from your mouth. You took long deep breaths trying to steady your heart beat.

Jay moped up your liquids with his shirt and got back between your legs. Just as you were setting back down. He rammed into you. The butt plug grinding in deeper. 

Jay couldnt get enough. You knew his mission was to make you cum and then punish you for it. He was a evil mastermind but you loved every single minute of it.

"Who do you belong to"? Jay asked snaking his hand up your body and slowly going towards your throat.

"You, sir". You breathlessly whispered.

"That's right. If I catch you flirting with another guy. I will punish you severely. You won't be able to walk for days". Jay growled, squeezing your throat. His thrusts got deeper and at a un leveled pace. He was about to erupt.

"I promise". Your mouth dropped and your eyes rolled to the back of your eyes as another orgasm took over you. Jay came, shooting his large load inside you. The feeling of his warm cum made you feel full and complete.

"That's my girl. Taking Daddys cum like a big girl without a condom. You make me so proud". Jay roughly kissed your lips.

He laid on top of you until he got soft and pulled out. Sitting up in the seat he softly pulled you with his. Your body hurt, your mind spinning but you were very satisfied and pleased.

"You okay? I didnt hurt you did i"? Jay wrapped his arm around you, kissing your cheek that he had smacked.

"I'm great. That was amazing. The plug made it so hot". You beamed with a smile.

"I wasn't going to do it tonight but I was feeling something and I found it hot as well. Maybe one day we'll replace it with my cock". Jay smirked with cockiness.

"Maybe. It didnt hurt to bad. But your dick is way bigger than that so we'll ease into it". You said snuggling into him.

"Wonder what Adam will say tomorrow at work"?

"I dont care. We should just come out and tell everyone".

"And ruin all the hotness by sneaking around and doing this".

"We can still do it".

"But it wont be as fun". Jay frowned. He reached into his pants pocket and pulled out the cuff keys.

"Here let me help you". Jay gently uncuffed one hand and then swiftly grabbed it.  Forcing you back on your stomach. He cuffed you to the door handle.

"Jay Halstead. Let me go". You giggled kicking your feet. This was so exciting.

"Oh no. I'm not finished with you yet". Jay slapped your ass right where your plug was at. You moaned out. He grabbed his boxers and went to the front. Starting his truck. You didn't know where you were going but you couldnt wait to get there.

4 times the pogues interupt you and JJ+ the 1 time you get to be alone.

Request:Hi!! Could I please request a fic with JJ? I was thinking “4 times the pogues interupt JJ and y/n’s alone time. And the 1 time they get to be alone. Maybe some smut if you are comfortable with that❤️ I hope this request make sense haha❤️❤️

Warnings:Smut,not proof read.

It had taken JJ a year and two months to finally get you to like him.Flirting with you at parties, making sure not to look in the direction of any other girl and stealing you candy bars.

You began to see him everywhere, at the beach where you went to collect seashells,sometimes coming up next to you and asking if he could help you collect them.He would show up at the coffee shop you worked at, a big grin on his face when you’d roll your eyes.

That eye roll eventually turned into an equally as happy grin, preparing his iced coffee for him before he even ordered it.You were a kook which meant he had to work extra hard.You werent one of the rude, stuck up kooks that were disgusted by pogues.

That was what originally made him so attracted to you.It wasnt until six months of not hooking up with any tourons, only talking about you that the pogues realized how serious he was and decided to help him out on his mission to get you to like him.

They didnt exactly like you,mainly because you were a kook but at the end of the day they really just wanted to see him happy.If another boy was flirting with you John.B would come up and start talking to the boy,most likely knowing him.JJ would then swoop in,offering you a gummy worm and asking how you were.

And now that he had finally got you he wanted to enjoy every moment he had with you.It took three months of the two of you dating for The Pogues to finally like you.It wasnt you yourself that Kiara didnt like, it was the fact that she had walked in on you and JJ.

JJ had you under him, your hands pinned over your head, his lips moving against yours as he grinded against you,trying his best not to start moaning.He chuckled at your quiet moans, kissing your forehead lightly before moving down to your neck, nipping at the sensitive skin and sucking at the flesh.

 “I love you.”He muttered,unbuttoning your cropped,flowy white shirt.You bit your lip as he began to leave kisses down your chest,holding your wrists down with one hand,using the other to unclip your bra and pulling it off of you completely,leaning back to admire you.

 “You’re so pretty, how did I get you?”He asked softly, still not understand.You grinned,slowly pulling your wrists from his grip.He let you, not forcing them to stay there.You leaned up,kissing him. “Because you’re fucking fantastic, even if you are a whore.”You giggled,kissing the tip of his nose.He squinted,pushing you back down.

 “Oh, youre gonna pay for that.”He smirked,licking a stripe down your chest,approaching your underwear. “JJ...please.”You pouted, watching as a smile tugged at his lip. “Its cute when you beg.”He licked his bottom lip,the skin staying between his teeth as he quickly looked you up and down,pulling off his shirt so you two were equal.

He sighed,about to tug on your underwear when Kiara opened the door,freezing when she realised what was going on.JJ threw a blanket over you, shouting for his friend to get out.Kiara closed the door,hand over her mouth. “What?”Pope asked, confused.They had just told her to go see if the two of you wanted to join them when they went surfing, not understand why Kie was so embarrassed. 

“I just saw shit that I never thought id see.”She whispered in disgust.JJ pulled the blanket off of you, laughing. “Oh my god.”You covered your face with your hands, feeling like you were about to cry. “I guess we should see what they want.”He frowned,getting his shirt back on,handing you your bra and shirt. “We’ll finish this later.”He winked at you,stepping out of the room.

Kiara never shut up about that,always finding ways to bring it up. “You guys are so gross.”She laughed, sipping her beer.JJ shrugged, not really caring as he threw his arm over your shoulders, pulling you close to him. “Shut up….”You grumbled,leaning into JJ’s touch. “You guys were going to do it while we were here!That’s so much worse!”She laughed, almost dropping her beer.

You looked down at your boyfriend,able to feel his boner even through yours and his pants, a grin on your face. “You’re so hard.”You leaned down to kiss him,squeezing his jaw. “Of course, pretty girl.You always make me hard.”He replied,his hands wresting on your hips. 

“Do I?”You questioned him,kissing his neck.He nodded,his hands slipping under your shirt and onto your waist,holding you against him.He closed his eyes so he could enjoy the feeling of you against him,your warm hands tugging at the hem of his shirt,pulling it off of him.

You gulped,staring down at his abs.You had seen him in swimsuits and his boxers but looking at him always amazed you.He was built like a renaissance statue or perhaps even a greek god.You pulled off your own shirt,watching his eyes widen and jaw drop.

Your body always amazed him despite seeing it dozens of times.He kissed your collarbones,moving down to your cleavage to leave kisses and hickeys,a smile on his face as he bit at your skin lightly. “You think they’ll hear us?”You asked,suddenly being pushed into the mattress,JJ now on top of you.

He shrugged,kissing you gently. “Just be quiet.”He told you,kissing you rougher this time away,biting at your bottom lip,slipping his tongue in your mouth,tugging lightly at your hair.“God,youre so fucking hot.”He whispered,tugging down your underwear,kneeling at the end of the mattress,beginning the teasing.

Licking a stripe through your fold,moaning when he tasted you.He let you place your hands in his hair,helping him set a good pace,trying to hold back your moans. “So pretty…”he whispered,watching your reaction as he pumped his fingers in and out of you.

You could feel the cold metal of his rings inside of you,the sensation odd but good. “JJ.”You whispered,needing more than just his fingers.He grinned at your eagerness,unzipping his pants.

Everything was fine until Pope burst in the room,screaming in horror before slamming the door,making loud gagging sounds. “Are you serious?”JJ yelled,huffing.You groaned,tired of this happening,hiding yourself under the blankets,allowing Pope to ask the question that he had come to ask in the first place.

 “Um...do you guys want to split a pizza with us?”He asked,embarrassed. “Really?That was the question that was so important?”JJ asked,becoming annoyed with every second that passed.Pope assumed that you guys wanted to split the pizza,closing the door again. 

“Maybe you should just come over my house.”You muttered,running your fingers through his hair.He chuckled,looking up at you. “yeah?You might love me but your rich ass parents dont,didnt they try to set you up with Topper?”He asked,remembering you complaining about it a couple months back.

You sighed, knowing that he was right.You knew that your parents would be gone for the weekend next week,a small grin on your face. “I mean...they’re going to the mainland next weekend.You should come over.”You suggested,watching a smile come across his face. “Next weekend you’re going to have the best night of your life.”He promised,excited.

Later that night after eating some pizza with the pogues you decided to tease JJ a bit.They decided that they wanted to get icecream,the five of you loading into the van to go to the icecream shop.You obviously sat on JJ’s lap as usual,his head on your shoulder,his hand creeping onto your thigh,squeezing lightly.

 “When we get back…”He whispered into your ear,smiling when John.B parked in the icecream shops parking lot,all of you getting out and ordering your icecream.JJ got his usual,a pineapple orange sundae with rainbow sprinkles and whipped cream while you decided on the green tea honey comb cream.

JJ was appalled by it,not understanding why you enjoyed it so much.He felt your hand on his thigh as you talked to Kiara,the two of you talking about the horrors of climate change.He didnt think anything of it at first utnil you began to palm him through his pants,unbuttoning them before pulling down the zipper.

As much as he hated the power you had over him he didnt want you to stop, wanting to see how far you’d go.He watched you eat your icecream,licking some of the melted dessert off the side of it.He shifted, gulping.You probably werent even trying,the thoughts mixed with your hand becoming too much for him when you suddenly pulled away,his eyes widening.

When you guys got back to John.B’s it was pretty dark,Kie,Pope and John.B deciding to have a fire while you and JJ decided to go to bed.He pressed you up against the door,glaring at you. “Why would you tease me?Did you want me to fall apart in front of them?”He asked,clearly upset by your actions.

You grinned,his hands on your shoulders and pushing you to the floor,on your knees. “Please be good to me,princess.”He requested,unbuttoning his pants,letting you tug them down along with his boxers,taking him in your mouth. “shit…”He whimpered,his hands going to the back of your head,his cock shoved half way down your throat,moans coming out of his mouth against his own will,eyes clenched shut as he fucked your mouth.

 “Fuck,you feel so good.”He praised you,trying not to be too rough on you,feeling you gag on his length,tears pricking at your eyes.He loosened his grip,worried that he would accidentally hurt you. “Good girl.”He whispered,his liquids spilling down your throat.

You swallowed it,pulling off of him,taking in deep breaths that you had been deprived of.He pushed you back onto the bed,pulling your shorts off of you,peeling off your panties,about to push into you when there was a knock on the door.His jaw clenched,staring down at you. “Fuck dammit.”He got off of you,getting his boxers on quickly.

 “What?”He called out,watching you hide your lower half under the blanket,scrolling through your phone casually. “Uh….do you wanna come to the fire with us?”He asked you guys, looking between the two of you.JJ shrugged,pulling on a pair of pajama pants,telling POpe you two would be out in a moment,handing you your underwear and shorts. “Cockblocks.”He muttered.

He was becom ing excited for the weekend that your parents would be gone,thinking of all the things he could do to you in one night.You two had never gone past blowjobs,fingering and hit eating you out no matter how often you tried.

He had never even been inside your bedroom before,nervous for a new location.He wasnt sure how often you had had sex or how much dick you could take,sure that it was fine and he’d figure it out that weekend.The morning after the fire he had turned on his side,wrapping an arm around your waist,placing sloppy,wet kisses along your neck,earning a giggle from you. 

“I love you.”He smiled,kissing your cheek.He groaned when John.B knocked on the door,telling you guys it was time to get up and get ready to go on the boat.JJ grinned,remembering what day at was,knowing he’d be able to take his time with you tonight.

The day took forever to pass,both of you becoming more and mor excited as the hours passed,finally getting to the dock that was attached to your backyard. “See you guys on Sunday.”JJ grinned,taking your hand and getting on the dock,seeing the confused looks on his friends faces.

They chose to ignore it,waving by to you guys and going off,creating ripples behind them.You and JJ were giggling quietly,finally getting inside your empty house,seeing three hundred dollars on the kitchen counter for dinner.

He licked his lips,glancing around the large room,seeing two staircases that lead to the same doors.You held his hand,leading him up the stairs,through the first set of doors,down one of three halls to your large bedroom.

The walls were white but covered with posters,photos and canvases,your bed was queen sized and made not too long ago from the looks of it.He saw your desk and your large tv on the wall,your closet and your little tray of plants. “What?”You asked,beginning to take off your shirt only for him to stop you,taking it off himself instead. 

“Nothing.”He answered,kissing you gently.He backed you up,pinning you to your bed,knowing that you probably wouldnt be up for a good couple of hours.He placed delicate kisses down your neck,pausing to pull off his own shirt.

He went slow,glad he could finally take time to enjoy the experience,knowing the pogues wouldnt walk in this time. “How far have you gone?”He asked,realizing he had never asked before. “Ive done it once or twice...never good though.”You admitted.

He grinned,unbuttoning your pants. “I’ll be good.”He started by sucking on you clit,hearing your moans.He was determined to make you finish at least once tonight,pushing his fingers inside of you,moving them quick.

Your moans were loud,not holding back now that the two of you were completely alone.He grinned,continuing to suck on you,curling his finger inside of you before adding another,commenting on how absolutely soaked you were. 

“Good girl.”He whispered,feeling you clench around his fingers,your fluids leaking out all over his fingers,a satisfied smile at his face now that he accomplished his goal,setting a new one for himself,licking his fingers clean.

 “JJ-please,I cant wait any longer.Please,just fuck me.”You whimpered desperately,feeding his confidence.He was quick to pull down his pants and boxers,just as desperate as you were. “Are you ready?”He asked,his elbows on either side of your head,lining himself up with your entrance.You nodded,trying not to look down,knowing you’d moan at the sight.

He kissed your forehead,pushing into you and reaching spots that had never been touched before.Your nails dug into his back,scratching angry red lines. “You okay?”He asked,realizing how deep your scratches went.

You nodded,urging him to keep going.He pulled out half way before plunging back into you,fingertips pushing into your hips,probably going to leave bruises the next day.You moaned with every thrust,his thumb rolling over your clit,making figure eights,biting his lip at the sounds of your loud moans,trying not to cum before you.

 “Gonna cum for me?”He asked,pouting when you shook your head. “Cant.”You answered,not quite there yet but you could feel yourself getting close.He chuckled,speeding up,grabbing the head board,his knuckles turning white by how hard he was gripping it,feeling you clench around him,moaning at the feeling. 

“You’re so good.”He praised you,continuing his thrusts but you werent complaining,still wanting more. He came inside of you,the wetness of both your fluids only making him go faster,grunting as he tried his best to hit your g spot every time,obsessed with the way you felt. “So tight….I wish I had come over sooner.”He kissed you again,gentle and soft unlike his thrusts.

 “I love you.”You bit down on his collarbone,making him smile. “Love you too.”He replied,thrusting into you one more time before you came undone for the third time that night,him following close behind you. “Round two later?”He asked,laying down next to you.

aleeunayzhun: anyone else think the ‘monster’ addition was totally unnecessary and has taken away from what was a mildly intriguing ARG concept beforehand?

aleeunayzhun: 🙄 back on the trail for a new rabbithole to fall down

level26: Yeah, axed it for me

aleeunayzhun: the paranormal route can be alright if it’s done right but usually it ain’t and then it’s a cop-out, PM definitely didn’t think where they were going with this

aleeunayzhun: the ones that rely on the real world but twist it are always scarier to me, no one ever has the balls to stick with it, to not throw in some bullshit ghost jumpscares to get the idiots with

level26: creepypasta is where it ends up with barely no exceptions

aleeunayzhun: mhmm

aleeunayzhun: and no one has shanked their mate over anything on there in time

level26: got a few I’ll volunteer if the next 🐇 is more of this or promo again

aleeunayzhun: If one more shitty band thinks throwing out some binary or morse code makes them any less shit, I’ll join you

level26: dednah tfel neve t'nia ylbaborp yeht

aleeunayzhun: imij erew yeht hsiw yeht

level26: 👅💔🍆💔🎸💔

aleeunayzhun: 💔 they reckon hot groupies hang about on reddit

level26: trolls are their groupies, they can only be fuelled by edgy r/hate 🤘

aleeunayzhun: awh, r/hate is only a degree away from r/love after-all

level26: just like that, a plotline that’d be less crap than [whatever this ARG we’re slagging off is called]

aleeunayzhun: not gonna start my annoying beg promo in here quite yet but how hard was that, really

level26: us both being spam bots is still a better twist than the monster did it

aleeunayzhun: Привет, дорогая, хочешь увидеть мои сексуальные фотки? Hажмите ссылку СЕЙЧАС! [‘Hello dear, do you want to see my sexy pictures? Click the link NOW!’ And a link to god knows what lmao]

level26: NO soundcloud rapper link?! 💀 what an r/cockblock

aleeunayzhun: how’d you guess 😏

level26: my paranormal powers kicked in, clicking that link must’ve leveled me up

aleeunayzhun: advert for communism? 🤔🤫

level26: find me and my sick beats on r/motherrussia

aleeunayzhun: MK Ultra is definitely taken by about 1000 other shit DJs

aleeunayzhun: and is the poorly executed plot of several other ARGs I’ve also given up on

level26: KM Extra is my personal fave shit DJ, really doing something

aleeunayzhun: the fact I genuinely know who that is 😷😷

level26: I noclipped into his set at [somewhere she would have heard of even if she’s not been] talk about an eldritch location

aleeunayzhun: you must’ve felt like the only player in a crowd of NPCs 🧟‍♀️🧠💀🧟‍♂

level26: close enough to the review I would’ve left

aleeunayzhun: I’ll leave it

aleeunayzhun: I know the coordinates

level26: I’ll 👀 out for it

level26: you on moscow standard time or one of the other 10?

aleeunayzhun: I’m the Russian spy, I hack you, comrade

level26: ❤️ tôi cũng cam kết với chính nghĩa cộng sản ❤️ [with some link to the Communist Party of Vietnam because we’re saying we’re as committed to communism]

aleeunayzhun: [links to the Communist Party of Ireland to be like obvs we have both worked out we’re actually from here

level26: cracked the code, like, full props to KM Extra

aleeunayzhun: Only in Dubo would that shit fly

level26: they’d eat his head off outside the pale, yeah, galway’d be having none of it

aleeunayzhun: what they got but a bunch of rocks though

level26: easy pick for the murder weapon

aleeunayzhun: you’d never get far enough in the guinness factory to drown someone in a vat 💔

level26: could do if you got a job as manager and closed for essential maintenance

aleeunayzhun: 💡

aleeunayzhun: won’t do no harm to the taste

level26: iron boost if he’s bleeding heavily when he goes in

aleeunayzhun: delicious and nutritious

level26: ARG coming soon from guinness

aleeunayzhun: bastards better give credit

level26: they can have it, we’re not short of ideas

aleeunayzhun: and you ain’t heard nothing yet

aleeunayzhun: not making it that easy for the wannabe PMs with none of their own

aleeunayzhun: 🔐the real ones

level26: fair play, given enough freebies out in this thread

aleeunayzhun: 🤐

aleeunayzhun: [later on though definitely some way to contact her privately but in a way that you’ve got to work it out of course]

level26: [at least then we can switch to y’all’s names ‘cause I can’t think of a username for the life of me lol]

Edie: [You can add it later and change it, it’s fine lol]

Liam: 🔓

Edie: 1 🔑 for 1 💎

Edie: Suitably impressed

Liam: if I knew anywhere that loaded a 💎 into the gun I’d be off but what’s impressive about a swollen and green ear

Edie: Impressive, no; but good footage for the game? Absolutely

Liam: I’d do it here to have time to mess about with all the lighting and angles

Edie: you’re 🎥

Edie: not enough have actual artistic merit so fair play

Liam: but thinking about it, recording the conveyor belt of a trainee stabbing holes in screaming babies ears all day could have some merit to it, maybe I should get myself up

Edie: you can buy anything and everything from bezos

Edie: live your dreams

Liam: putting my dreams on tape would be worse than the monster reveal

Liam: cheapest jumpscares and effects

Edie: not to mention outing yourself to the whole thread, not just me

Liam: how many teachers would crawl out the woodwork if there was a mass reveal

Edie: to offer you the school’s stellar mental health services

Edie: the one nurse phoning it in

Liam: find my dad lurking on the thread too, that’d be a trip

Edie: unexpectedly wholesome

Edie: I’ll start hiding caches where my dad hides his stashes

Edie: unintentional rhyme

Liam: bars 🎼

Edie: @ KM Extra

Liam: Fachtna to his ma who thinks he’s a saint

Edie: Oof

Edie: ARG concept no. ? the horror of the Irish language

Liam: my ma would be 😱 if I went and hugged her for not doing me that wrong

Edie: not the audience we aim to 😱 really

Liam: too easy

Edie: almost as easy as your name to spell and say

Edie: you even from here 👽

Liam: wouldn’t take enough working out to set you as a test, records are basically lying about

Edie: nothing relating to school is a challenge

Liam: just getting that nurse to give a shit

Edie: if she reckons she’s 👀 it all…

Liam: front row of our intended audience

Edie: splash zone

Liam: she’s never off her phone, spy like you won’t have no problem hacking it

Edie: her nudes = actual monstrosity

Liam: dunno what Mr Doyle sees in her

Edie: yeah, he’s such a looker himself, like

Liam: his wife used to be pretty fit

Edie: don’t matter when she explains how and why people cheat

Edie: psychobabble gets ‘em off every time

Liam: if they taught psychology nobody’d be off each other or learning anything then

Edie: sounds like any other standard schoolday

Liam: that's what they’re getting up to in your class, is it

Edie: as cliche as the monster, yeah

Liam: 🔥🏫

Edie: hear hear

Edie: got to make the endless fire drills worth it one day

Liam: can’t miss me standing in line or not

Edie: then I won’t

Liam: next false alarm I pull

Edie: + 💎

Liam: + 👀

Liam: dont have to hate every cliche

Edie: not the good ones

Edie: all about how you use or misuse them

Liam: can you overuse eye contact

Edie: I can

Liam: I can make a kubrick stare work however many takes you wanna do

Edie: you don’t think I’m a one-take 🌟

Liam: I’ve not shot you

Edie: 🤯🔫

Liam: I’m not a one-take 📷📹

Edie: is that a brag for not suffering from premature ejaculation?

Liam: do you need that reassurance

Edie: I don’t know

Liam: I’ll think about other unsexy shit if your eyes start getting to me too much

Edie: Ha, yeah right

Edie: just don’t think about the 🔥

Liam: 🚒 buzzkill

Edie: 🚓 cockblock

Liam: 🚑 scene stealers

Edie: 🛸 out of here

Liam: before you can get stuck there as a 👻

Edie: Purgatory is preferable to that place forever

Liam: stay alive and it��s simple to get out of 🏫

Edie: I’ll leave my bag behind

Edie: 1st rule and only, really

Liam: don’t really need a pile of textbooks

Edie: I doubt that’s what you carry

Edie: I know I don’t

Liam: I can get more of what I do and I bet you could too

Edie: Bars

Liam: 😏

Edie: You’ve promo’d him a lot if you ain’t him

Edie: KM, like

Edie: bit sus

Liam: you said you know who he is, you know I ain’t

Liam: maybe I love him or some gay shit

Edie: none of his tracks sound like love songs

Liam: guess he don’t love me back

Edie: Oh honey

Edie: lock him in when you set the fire

Liam: he can keep spitting out those fuck yous til the end

Edie: dedication ✊

Liam: and +++ for morale

Edie: what a lad

Liam: love triangle is a cliche too far, take a deep breath or something

Edie: bit possessive

Liam: directors are dicks

Edie: and the heartbroken

Liam: yeah, couldn’t be kind to you if I wanted

Edie: I’ll survive

Edie: you’ve given me the heads up, I’ll give you the 👀

Liam: respect killing me with your 👀 and taking him for yourself

Edie: who could blame me

Liam: my ma as I’m dead, like

Edie: true

Edie: i’ll avoid her at the tescos

Liam: 🛒 dash

Edie: got a selection of my own

Edie: [picture because the random crap you would have in the barns lmao]

Liam: [a picture of one he stole at some point that’s on fire or been blown up or whatever]

Edie: 👏

Edie: what else can we 💥

Liam: got any barns you don’t use

Liam: or 🚜 stuff

Edie: loads

Edie: if you’re lucky, I’ll leave another 🔑

Liam: got another ear to put a 💎 in, luck’s gonna run out beyond it

Edie: sounds like some gay shit, you should

Liam: 👌

Liam: [pics when we’ve done this because of course we have, casually raiding either your mother or sister’s jewellery stashes here like]

Edie: Oh

Edie: actually looks kinda sick

Edie: you’re welcome then

Liam: I’ll send the footage when I’ve edited it

Edie: I look forward to it

Edie: I can’t give you any clues

Liam: what makes you think I need em

Edie: [idk how to differentiate but clearly the clue to where you live needs to be much harder to find and then decode lmao]

Liam: [awkward when he blatantly already knows where you live]

Edie: [do not even need to do the work, whoops]

Liam: [convincingly pretend you are though please]

Edie: [thank god he’s not a murderer even if he is a stalker, just giving out this info willynilly]

Liam: [not your stalker, it’s FINE]

Edie: [oh dear oh dear]

Edie: I’ll know when you work it out

Liam: yeah, I’ll show up 📷📹🌾

Liam: or send a 📦💣 if you wanna take things slow

Edie: you decide

Edie: I’ll shake all the packages extra hard

Liam: cancel the real 🐇 I thought about

Edie: animal cruelty is lamer than bed wetting

Liam: never even tipped a 🐄

Edie: they’ll appreciate it

Edie: anyway, if you did, punishment is letting them kick you in the face so you lose in the end

Liam: head injury’s a win if I get caught for the 🔥🏫 or being seen staring in your window

Edie: 😍🤤 just serial killer things

Liam: pretend I didn’t say KM’s gonna be my 1st victim

Edie: I’ll never feel special otherwise

Liam: you don’t feel special knowing I cracked your code

Edie: if anything, it makes you look smart and me not smart enough

Liam: you’re smart enough that I wanted to

Edie: I’m not going to ruin it with a cliche jumpscare now

Liam: me either, you’re smart enough too to see me coming

Edie: and you’re tall, so I hear

Liam: dunno where from, my dad’s not

Edie: he’s definitely your dad?

Edie: I may as well accuse your ma because I’m already avoiding her for the whole killing you thing

Liam: don't act like it which probably means he is

Edie: ha, real talk

Edie: I think you might be taller than mine

Edie: he’s 6’2

Liam: ha, I am

Edie: you’re the tallest person in school, possibly town

Edie: definite 👽

Liam: taking their time parking the ufo and picking me up, typical dad

Edie: did they forget ET or leave him here on purpose

Edie: he was fucking annoying

Liam: if I looked that much like a ballsack I’d understand

Edie: 😂

Edie: least you’d get to get fucked up with baby Drew Barrymore

Liam: baileys on cereal does taste sick, always down for that

Edie: yum

Edie: what do your fingers look like

Liam: [a video of his hands from lots of angles like hello]

Edie: hot

Edie: you can call me Elliot

Liam: or just call you instead of home

Edie: 😎 so smooth

Liam: what’s my ma gonna say, get back, talking to you is smarter

Edie: I’ve got time to set up the voice distorter so you’re not disappointed by the lack of crEEEEeeeEPpPPpyyyyYy vibes

Liam: and I’ll have loads of time to hear how you sound without it when I stake your house out

Edie: I’ll be sure to be loud

Edie: and not chat total inane shit with my family

Liam: you got your own room

Edie: technically not

Edie: but there are other rooms and places to crash in, when I wanna be alone

Liam: there’s my excuse to zoom in creeEEPpILY close 👀 when you’re not

Edie: very awkward and even ruder if you confused me for my sister

Edie: no one’s done that for ages

Liam: how were they ever doing it

Edie: we’re both the white ones, they just didn’t know which was which

Liam: can’t be a hard code to crack, not gonna be confusing you for anyone

Edie: good

Edie: it was pretty annoying

Edie: and I’m already your second victim as it is

Liam: partner in crime, or groupie to mine if you’re not getting actively involved, but still standing at the end

Edie: hope you’re writing some of these down

Edie: ‘cos I’m not gonna be your groupie

Edie: got my own scores to settle, own havoc to wreak

Liam: don’t need to write down I don’t want you to die, I’ll remember

Edie: it rhymed though

Edie: I’ll steal your lines then

Liam: write as many songs about me as you want, be your groupie til I get 🛸✌️

Edie: [send your music links because you ain’t]

Edie: give me a sec to do yours but pretend any of these are about you

Liam: this is you

Liam: serious

Edie: yeah

Edie: if I was gonna lie I’d have done that a few steps ago

Liam: I’m gonna lie they’re all about me

Edie: that’s what serious meant

Liam: it meant I’m impressed and you’re downplaying how smart you are

Edie: you can be my hypeman and overplay it

Liam: [does by uploading this edited ear piercing escapade with whatever song of hers we like and fits the vibe playing in it, giving her credit because we’re not a heathen and also putting on his stories that he’s listening to these tracks and hyping them how you can]

Edie: [so 😍 over this but trying to be chill somehow and somewhat even though we’re extra af anyway]

Edie: maybe I do wanna be your groupie

Edie: what do you want from me

Edie: like, I owe you and I want to give you something too, ‘cos

Edie: talking to you IS interesting

Edie: and not just because I could be talking to my ma or someone else really boring instead just ‘cos you are

Liam: [for real though her views would definitely go up cos the vibe is he knows loads of people through his sister but also through his weird vids and the raves and stuff he goes to now too so]

Liam: all I want’s to keep talking to you, for as long as you’re into it

Liam: people don’t unless we’re off our faces, like

Edie: my notifications are popping off rn

Edie: I know what you mean though, everyone’s too scared to say or do anything when they don’t have something to blame it on, like being stupid or weird or whatever the fuck actually matters

Edie: more than being bored and alone

Liam: dunno what they’re more scared of, what they wanna ask or how I’m gonna answer, least I know what the topic’ll be

Liam: every convo I have is a loop

Edie: all anyone ever cares about and knows is the headlines

Edie: as if there aren’t countless hours minutes seconds before and after the big events they all 👀 and 👂

Liam: work out sweet for you as a headliner

Edie: Getting them to talk about what I’m doing instead of whatever my parents and the rest of the fucking fam did or do is the goal

Liam: with me hyping you up, no bother, keep knocking out hits and I’ll promo em with no trace of binary or morse code

Edie: and you make films

Edie: I wasn’t sure if you were pissing about at first

Edie: every other person in that thread is an aspiring filmmaker so

Liam: did put me off for a while

Edie: Yours aren’t going to be bad Blair Witch ripoffs though

Edie: I can say that much without seeing

Edie: even the stuff you’ve sent today is dope

Liam: do you wanna see

Edie: yes

Liam: [link her cos I doubt all the weird shit is just there chilling on your insta or whatever]

Edie: [just casually watching all of this nbd]

Liam: siht ekil kool annog weiver ruoy

Liam: или, может быть, это

Edie: hoặc tôi có thể làm như thế này [‘or I could do it like this’]

Edie: si ffuts ruoy kniht i looc woh edih annaw tnod i tub

Liam: ba mhó an spraoi é a cheilt agus a lorg go pearsanta [hide and seek would be more fun in person]

Edie: If you’ve worked out where I live like you say

Edie: be fair and count to 100

Liam: you reckon you made it that easy do you

Liam: be cool if you added some 00s to that and gave me a fair chance

Edie: no, you could still be anyone

Liam: someone to be scared of, yeah I probably am

Edie: Do you want me to be scared of you

Liam: nah

Edie: Good because I’m not and I never promised I was a 🌟 so

Liam: 🤩 with or without promises

Edie: How have I never spoke to you before

Edie: so weird

Liam: I wouldn’t have known what to say to a girl like you

Edie: You seem like you’re coping fine to me

Liam: from behind a keyboard I can cope with anything

Edie: You’re not afraid of me either

Liam: not yet

Edie: What do you think I’m like?

Liam: smart, creative, nice to talk to and look at

Edie: then you’ve got nothing to be afraid of

Liam: I’ve got nothing, that’s bang on

Edie: I’m not trying to take anything from you

Edie: but I could throw those compliments back to you x 10000

Liam: you don’t like possessive, I ain’t gonna tell you what to do

Edie: I didn’t say that

Edie: you could claim better than a soundcloud DJ though

Liam: been waiting to hear that compliment specifically

Edie: 😏

Edie: You look like you’d be a fuckboy

Edie: that’s what I thought

Edie: you’re that good-looking

Liam: if I was the game’d be making you think I wasn’t, which is kinda where we are

Edie: True

Edie: so I’m that dumb or you’re that good, what are we going for?

Liam: you’re smart enough to play dumb, I don’t think I can aim for god tier puppet mastery of anyone’s emotions

Edie: I can see the appeal of that

Edie: closing you eyes to thing you don’t wanna see, to see the things you do

Edie: but mine are wide open

Liam: I ain’t mad, there’d be no appeal to yours being closed, unless you drop bars in your sleep too

Edie: you’re gonna find which window is mine and find out, yeah

Liam: wake you up before you name drop KM as it’s MY thing

Edie: that’s your man, I can respect it

Liam: exclusivity is a + for you then, I’m taking notes

Edie: I don’t really know

Edie: everyone’s lame

Liam: I’ve been there, yeah

Edie: I can’t fake enthusiasm for the sake of it

Liam: it’s a shite idea, doable or not

Edie: I don’t intend to

Edie: 🤞

Liam: can’t think why you’d have to

Edie: I won’t make you promise

Liam: what’ll you make me do

Edie: I want you to show

Edie: and be real and not just go ghost after this

Edie: but I don’t know if you will and I know you might

Liam: be a short afterlife, we don’t get american summers

Edie: we both got the capabilities, but I can promise not to stalk you if you like

Edie: if you want to stick to usernames and anonymity

Liam: not working out where you are to prove I can and a face in the window haunting wouldn’t even impress any dads lurking on the thread

Edie: Alright but I’d be more inclined to keep a secret if you asked opposed to all the dads

Liam: I wouldn’t wanna keep anything we do secret

Edie: Yeah?

Liam: if this is a scam I’m falling for everyone’ll see why and if it’s not I’m gonna document everything

Edie: I won’t ask for your credit card details even once

Edie: This is… different

Edie: isn’t it

Liam: you can have my ma’s, you’re avoiding her and the big tescos

Liam: I don’t know what this is, I wasn’t expecting you at the end of any of those links

Edie: It IS the least she could do

Edie: If I had a guess, you weren’t it

Edie: Even though you mentioned Dubo, it isn’t that small of a town

Liam: ha, how livid you’d be if I was another american coming here for the culture

Edie: not close enough to st patrick’s that I was worried

Liam: how did you feel

Edie: I thought no way it was you at first

Edie: and then I couldn’t believe it was you

Edie: and then that I should’ve known you sooner

Edie: what about you?

Liam: I still can’t believe it’s you, I would’ve tried to chat to you sooner if I knew this is how it’d go

Edie: I’m glad we are now

Edie: and I’ve not fucked it up

Liam: if the small world’s not fucked it up, you won’t

Edie: like you said, be shit if you were in America

Liam: be crap if you were anyone else from school, like you said

Edie: If it was anyone else from school

Edie: this convo would be well over by now

Liam: it’s the longest I’ve had for years

Edie: It’s all so surface level, right

Edie: fuck that

Edie: I wanna know more about you, I don’t care if I shouldn’t just say that

Liam: what do you wanna know

Edie: Hmm

Edie: Do I only get the one question?

Edie: Because I’ll think more carefully if so

Liam: nah, there’s no limit on it

Edie: Cool

Edie: so how was your day, and what were you doing just before you went on the forum?

Liam: [send her a video of some rave or whatever you were at because it’s summer bitches]

Liam: + 3-4 hours sleeping

Edie: Lucky

Edie: where’d you sleep and where’s the weirdest place you’ve got + 3-4 hours sleep before?

Liam: [send her some of the blooper-esque stuff you cut out to make it look more fun than it is, cos we know you’re usually bored]

Liam: home, I can’t 💤 in random xD places but I could call your dad short and maybe have him in a fight

Edie: that’s hot

Edie: he could’ve been there and you coulda tested that theory

Edie: but I wanna be there when you do

Liam: you’d have a shite view from the stage with lights blinding you, can’t let on how talented you are while we’re there

Edie: 😶

Edie: he’s not old so it’s not on a par with animal abuse lameness

Liam: and if I get carried away you can stop me

Edie: can I

Edie: + skill points

Liam: 🎶 works on monsters

Edie: have to find a way to get you home before the 💤 hits

Edie: so cute 🥺

Liam: mine or yours

Edie: 😳

Edie: I’ll protect you while you sleep, see if you can at mine

Liam: I can’t if you’re 👀

Edie: that might be a problem

Liam: how long can you not blink for

Edie: [send a vid of an attempt]

Liam: can I keep this

Edie: ‘course

Edie: use it if you can

Liam: when you write a song about me it’ll need a vid

Edie: I’ve started

Edie: I think by the time you find me, it’ll be done

Liam: people who don’t know you are gonna think I edited your eyes that colour

Edie: hashtag they’re real 😏

Liam: the girl who said she had an operation as a kid’s the real you

Edie: 😂

Edie: they were going rouge and I’ve repressed those memories

Liam: what were you doing before you logged on

Edie: not at a rave, sadly

Edie: I was masterminding a sabotage though, trying to anyway

Liam: don’t leave it there giving me no details

Edie: it isn’t even bad ARG plot worthy

Edie: but my sister has her gross boyfriend over and I need to ruin their fun, obviously, because they are unbearable

Edie: easiest way to do that is make them babysit the twins because there’s nothing fun about 9 year olds

Edie: so I convinced ma to go out on a date, but I still need to get my brother out the way and he’s a massive nerd who never goes anywhere so I’m stumped

Liam: we could have fun with it, gotta be a route to go down that’s not just ripping off the shining again

Liam: a nerd how, he’s on mastermind and his subject is _

Edie: 🪓 is just a prop, honest

Edie: bones, not in a cool way

Edie: History, all that old shit

Liam: [obviously find some kind of obscure af exhibit or book signing or something that he’d potentially be interested in and send her the deets because sleuthing is what you do boy]

Edie: OMG but genuinely

Edie: you are too good at this, I’ll have to keep you around

Liam: stashed with the 🪓

Edie: if you fit

Edie: He’ll actually go to this, for sure

Edie: 🐓🚫

Liam: keep what you figure’s useful and chop off the rest 🧩🧟

Edie: 😋

Edie: what an offer

Edie: and I do need to keep busy so I can’t be asked to step in

Edie: not that I’d say yes

Liam: busy like with a 🧭

Edie: go on

Liam: [god knows what scavenger hunt he’s sending you on gal that he apparently just has ready at the drop of a hat but here we are]

Edie: [live your best nerd lives]

Liam: [really hope these clues aren’t something he was gonna torment your sister with, because no thank you]

Edie: [lmao i hope it wouldn’t translate so easy ‘cos imagine]

Liam: [it definitely wouldn’t but a hardcore blag happening here regardless, I like to think you were actually coming up with this for her while you were pretending to work out her address that you already know]

Edie: [that’s a solid shout ‘cos yeah that is a thing lol]

Edie: [definitely sending you the demo of this song at the end as a prize because we’re beyond 😍 now]

Liam: [likewise even though he’s trying to downplay how 😍 he is to himself rn because it’s so weird that she’s Rio’s sister and that he actually also likes her in her own right so we’re fully !?]

Liam: [nevertheless trying to think of something creepy but cool he could send to her house so she knows he knows where it is and that we think this demo is amazing obviously, maybe it’s lots of other people’s shit musical endeavours like KM that we’ve set on fire and otherwise destroyed in creative ways like you’ve slayed the competition gal since cds and tapes are back baby idk]

Edie: [I wonder if I can find something like that to post hmm to pinterest I go]

Liam: [love the visual of you just sneakily dropping off a massive box of melted plastic without anyone seeing you]

Edie: [you’re clearly good lmao, I was thinking we could do a convo with Billie between this and the next one though]

Liam: [good idea boo, I’m up for that]

Lack of Sugar || Fat Gum x Reader || NSFW

Low on Sugar (Fat Gum x Reader NSFW)

I dont see too many spicy x readers with Fat Gum soooooo, I wrote one :)

Round 1

Today's been slow, calming and relaxing all in one. The cool night breeze circulated around the room as you're laying on the bed, chilling and watching whatever is on tv. There are a few empty snacks, two chocolate bars, a whip cream can and an empty bowl of ice cream. You're currently wearing one of Taishiro's button ups.

The sound of the front door unlocking is heard.

"Gummy bear, I'm home!" Taishiro calls out. 

You call out to him, greeting him back.

You hear his footsteps as it gets closer to the bedroom. You're met with Taishiro in his low fat form. He looks to be covered in dirt and debris from whatever had happened today.

You start to get out of bed, but he stops you.

"Oh, Gummy you don't have to get up." He strides over and kisses your forehead and you ask him if he's okay.

"I didn't get hurt today, I just ended up using the energy to chase down a villain. Might've fallen here and there, but I'm fine. How was your day? Was it calm?"

You nod in response and laugh, agreeing due to the amount of snacks laying about. He pinches your cheek slightly before kissing it. 

"I'm going to shower, you continue relaxing okay?"

You ask him if he wanted you to cook anything for him. He's usually hungry.

"No, I can cook afterwards. Is there anything particular you want though?"

You say you're in the mood for meat tonight, maybe some more ice cream afterwards and he chuckles.

"Okay, I'll keep those in mind." He heads towards the bathroom in the room, "I'll be out in a bit."

After he closes the door to the bathroom, you decide that another bowl of ice cream couldn't hurt before dinner. You roll out of bed and return within minutes.

You figure you were going to share with Taishiro after he came out so you put extra toppings, even bringing the bottle of chocolate syrup and a new can of whip cream.

You get settled in the bed again, slowly eating the ice cream to save some for him. About ten minutes pass by and the bathroom door opens. Taishiro steps out in another one of his iconic jackets and his boxers.

He looks up at you and his eyes light up, "Is that a neapolitan sundae with extra whip cream, chocolate syrup, cherries and sprinkles?" 

You giggle and nod in response. You raise up the extra spoon and he beams at you.

"You're so sweet, Gummy." He sits beside you. You hand him the bowl to hold.

"By the way, is that my shirt? You look so cute and small in it!"

You laugh and tell him he is about 8'2 in height. Anyone would be swimming in his clothes.

"Yeah, true. But not everyone could look as cute as you." He boops your nose.

You went in for another scoop and the ice cream is slightly runny. As you bring the spoon to your mouth, some of it drips onto your chest, running in between your cleavage. You go to wipe it, but Taishiro grabs your hand.

"Hang on, I got it." He puts down the bowl.

You expected him to grab a tissue to wipe it. Instead he lowers himself to your chest and begins licking it off. You jump, surprised by the gesture.

He licks all the ice cream off, slowly, making sure you feel his breath on your skin. He looks up at your red face afterwards.

He smirks and travels to your neck, his lips grazing across your skin as he travels.

"I'm sorry, Sugar, I can't resist." His voice is low and husky, "You just looked so tasty and smell so sweet." You know when he calls you Sugar instead of Gummy Bear, you're in for a treat.

He begins licking your neck, hard but slowly. It sends shivers down your body when he breathes on you and occasionally sucks and leaves marks.

"You're so sweet, Sugar."

He goes back down to your chest, he can see that your nipples are slightly erect. He licks them over the shirt. You flinch slightly as he continues to massage your nipple with his tongue. He begins rubbing the other one, gently, circling the top and flicking it up and down a bit. You whine a bit and that cues him. He starts biting off the buttons of the shirt.

You tell him that it's his shirt. He looks at you and smirks.

"I know, Sugar. I just like opening my snacks with my teeth." He sucks on one of them, moving the nipple with his tongue.

Be starts gently pulling the other as if he were trying to milk you. You cover your mouth to keep from crying out. He switches over to the other, doing the same thing and switches to the other after a minute.

This goes on for a few more minutes and you can feel yourself reaching your limit. Right before you're about to cum, he stops, leaving you slightly over-stimulated and breathless. You whine and he chuckles.

"You're so cute." He kisses you softly.

He moves his lips slowly against yours, gently nibbling on your lower lip occasionally. You can feel his hands slowly traveling down your sides and planting them on your hips. He massages them slightly. He carefully leads you onto his lap. You wrap your arms around his neck, resting them on his broad shoulders, as his tongue maneuvers into your mouth. You can feel his bulge underneath you and you unconsciously start grinding against him. You moan in his mouth and he breaks the kiss. Both of you are breathless and staring into one another's eyes. 

He rests his face in your cleavage, "You're so beautiful." He plants kisses on your collarbone.

He gently places you on the bed. His hand starts massaging your thigh slightly. He starts to kiss you again, moving his hand to your area. Be starts gently rubbing your clit. He breaks the kiss once again to suck on your breasts again. 

You loudly moan as both your most sensitive areas are being stimulated at the same time. 

"You're so wet, Sugar baby." He says as he slides his hand onto your underwear.

You feel his middle finger being inserted. You flinch and arch your back as it slowly slides into you. His fingers were long and thick and it felt very similar to the dildo you used earlier when you thought about him.

"You're a little loose, baby. Did you miss me that much?" He hasn't moved his finger at all inside you.

Your breath becomes ragged and you nod, trying to get him to finger you soon. He starts pushing in a little more and slowly pulls his finger out. He knows how much you want him inside, but you'll have to suffice with his finger for a bit. At some point, you moan loudly. He stopped at that same spot and started to finger you faster, hitting the same spot over and over again.

You moan his name and he inserts his index finger. You grab at his jacket, which made him plunge his fingers deep inside you. You moan and say you're about to cum again. He slows down and then completely stops.

You whine at him and beg for him to let you cum. 

He chuckles, "I'm sorry, Sugar, but trust me." He starts to slide down his boxers, revealing his hard eight inch cock. He takes out a condom from underneath his pillow and rips the packet open.

"Baby, can you be sweet and help me out a bit?" He coos.

You sit up, taking the condom. What he was expecting was for you to put the condom in your mouth and put it over. But instead, you took the tip into your mouth, sucking on it. You run your tongue along the shaft.

"Mmmm..! Sugar, you know that's not what I meant- ah….!"

 You suck harder, bobbing your head up and down, slowly, and making sure to stimulate the tip the most. He places his hand on the back of your head and pushes your face down the shaft. He begins grinding and fucking your face carefully. He pulls out of your mouth before he blows his load. 

You watch as he pulls the condom over and he pours lube all over it. 

You can't help but stare at it. It's so big and you couldn't wait for him to fill you up the inside. You'd been waiting all day for it. You lay on your back, holding your legs up with your hands, panting, practically begging for him.

He hovers over you, lifting your hips up onto his muscular thighs. He gets close to your ear, you can hear him breathing.

"Isn't this a treat," he growls.

You feel the head at the entrance slowly slide in. He wants you to feel every single inch of him enter you.

"Just a bit more," He says before ramming the rest of it in.

You moan, already grabbing at the bed sheets. He's panting heavily as he looks at the pleasure in your face.

"I'm going to start moving." He says.

He pulls out and then pushes back in at a slower pace. He chokes back a moan.

"You're so fucking tight. It feels so fucking good..!"

He starts to pick up the pace. You cover your mouth, trying to keep quiet. He didn't like that.

"Honey cakes, please don't do that. I wanna hear that pretty little noise you make." He begs you.

 He pins both your arms down with one hand and plunges into you, hard. You arch up towards his body, letting out the loudest moan you have ever made. He continues to pound into you and you moan every time his cock slams into your cervix, the whimpering progressively gets louder and louder each time he slams into you.

He spreads your legs, going into the captain position. You stick your tongue out as you moan and beg for him to go faster. At some point you ended up on his lap, wrapping your arms around his neck as he pounds you faster and faster.

You came multiple times already, your body shaking as his hard cock continued to mess your inside up. You can't hold on anymore and he knows that. He flips you over and grabs your arms as he rams you from behind. You ended up in the downward dog next and felt his hand grabbing your ass. You feel his hand slap onto one of your cheeks. You let out a yelp. You see his hand placed next to your face as he shifts his weight. He licks your ear.

"You're so fucking beautiful. I love you so goddamn much." He whispers into your ear, choking back a few moans. "I'm about to cum." 

He's going at his fastest and you become a moaning mess. You feel his large load fill the condom inside of you. You feel him fall on top of you, he's panting in your ear. Your legs begin trembling and spasming. He pulls out of you. You have enough energy left to turn around to look at him. He ties off the condom and tosses it to the side. 

He kisses you gently, "A little snack break and we'll come back to this, okay, Sugar?"

You nod and lay there.

"Okay, baby. I'm going to get you some water. Be right back." He kisses your forehead.

This was only one round of many.

_

The whole ride to taehyung's mansion you felt numb.

Taehyung took you back to your house to grab your things, not that you had anything valuable he insisted that you to grab your stuff, his body guards got out before you and pointed a gun at your mother and Christopher who were shell shocked seeing you walk behind these two men.

Your mother cried calling your name you kept walking to your room trying not to look at her because you knew you were going to break, one of taehyung's men followed you to your room and stood near the doorframe as he eyed you packing a few things.

You took the sweaters you loved to wear and your favourite jeans, you weren't ready to wear luxury clothes that taehyung said he'd buy you so these should be enough for now.

Your hands were shaking trying to compress your sobs, you could hear Christopher cursing and yelling at the body guards you closed your eyes and trembled when you heard one of guards load the gun.

You tried your hardest to block your mother's cries then the guard startled you and told you to hurry up you closed the small bag that had your things in and carried it, the body guard moved to the side letting you walk infront of him and following you his gun still pointing to your head incase you tried to escape.

"Please dont take her please!" Your mother sobbed when she saw you in the hallway, taehyung was leaning on the wall near the door smirking at Christopher "you're a scum! a murder! fuck you!" Christopher spits at taehyung, taehyung only smirks more when his guard hits the old man with the back of his rifle.

You look away not baring to see any of this, it didn't feel real at all, you kept pinching your hand hoping that this was one of your hallucinations when you got drunk but you weren't waking up the pinchs stung your skin and it just upsets you more knowing that this is all real.

"Don't be giving me that face..you brought this on yourself" taehyung says chuckling after he spoke "didn't whoever sent you to me warn you that I'm not a man to be messed with?" He leans closer to your stepfather locking his eyes with him, taehyung's stare was definitely stronger and filled with confidence while your stepfather eyes were filled with sadness.

You can't believe that he actually felt remorse, you can see regret written across his face and that for some reason eased your aching heart, now you know that he actually felt something, you wished it happened sooner way sooner and not like this.

Your mother was almost unconscious from how much she cried you can see how her face was swollen and her eyes seemed lifeless as she looks at taehyung with loathe.

Taehyung stepped away from Christopher and scoffed "you should be thankful that I took her and not your life hmm? Think about that at least, it's not so bad after all you're still breathing" then taehyung started to clap his hands together "I congratulate you my friend, you lasted longer than the other peasants" taehyung smirked and placed his hands back into his pockets "now you have a good life...and try and not miss ____ because she's in my hands now" taehyung leaned closer and whispered into Christopher's ear "she's all mine" he let out a laugh and walked out of the house then the guard lightly shoved you to start walking.

You could feel the tears start in your eyes but you tried to ignore them as you followed taehyung to the car and shortly after the two guards that were holding your parents got in the car and taehyung's driver took off at the speed of light.

You wanted to shout for help from the top of your lungs, you wanted to scream you wanted to kick the door and just run far away from taehyung and your stepfather, but you knew it wouldn't be that easy no one could stand in taehyung's way, you didn't need to know him well enough to know what he's capable of, looks were always deceiving but not when it came to him, you know what you're in for the moment you cross paths with him and boy oh boy your path seems to darken a bit more every inch you're away from your small broken home...

_

Living in taehyung's mansion was...peaceful to say the least.

it's been 5 months you felt like a maid rather than a prisoner, you cooked, cleaned vacuumed.

You had nothing else to do and taehyung left really early in the mornings and came back at midnight, some days you never saw him at all.

Which you were thankful for, he didn't bother you at all nor did he touch you, the minute you walked through these door you and him separated and never talked to him since that night at the bar you used to work at.

Until one night you were in the living room you turned all the lights in the mansion off,you were watching a TV show you found randomly and you started to like it and started watching it ever since even though you missed the first episodes, maybe seasons even but it was the only thing you could do to pass time.

You fell asleep as you were exhausted from cleaning the mansion all by yourself, the loneliness was unbearable no wonder taehyung is messed up, living alone for 5 months almost drove you insane you didn't know how taehyung was doing it since he hit puberty.

_

Taehyung shoulders slumped finally he is home but when his car neared the mansion he felt his heart sink...why were all the lights off?

Did someone break in?

Did you runaway?

Did something bad happen to you?

Where did his guards go?

So many questions raced through his mind and the thought of you being in danger or hurt made him lose his mind even more he stopped the car as soon as he passed the mansion gates and ran to the front door getting his gun out and busted the doors open not knowing where to point the gun at but he was already aiming at something

when you heard the doors open in such away you screamed and jumped from the couch and faced the door and that's when you saw taehyung pointing a gun at you, you raised your arms up surrendering.

"It's me!" You spoke rather loudly.

Both of you had your eyes wide open and your heart was beating uncontrollably.

"_____? What the fuck?" You heard him mutter lowering his gun,you roll your eyes and went to pick up the blanket that was on the floor now from when you jumped.

"I should ask you that..." you spoke while you folded the blanket and then looked at him "you almost ruined your front doors"

He sighs putting the gun away then he rubs his temples "thought someone broke in" you scoff "you live in the middle of nowhere there's no way that that's possible" you start to walk away your shoulder brush against his arm and that's when you feel his grip on your wrist as he turns you to face him.

"I'm sorry if I..." you hear him sigh "scared you" he says licking his lips then looks up at you, you stared at him a bit taken back but then you nod your head "it's okay..." you pull your arm away from his grip and make your way to the bedroom that was now yours.

Your skin burned where he touched and you could feel your insides turn and crunch but you brushed it off, you blamed it on the loneliness and nothing else.

And ever since that night when you woke up you saw taehyung on the dinning table with breakfast prepared and ready for you.

He smiles at you warmly and talks to you while both of you eat then he leaves for work.

Your bond with him slowly was starting to build up and you didn't know how you felt about it, but it's not like you had any other choice.

But talking to him felt...nice, it was comfortable and he never did or said something that rubbed you the wrong way and with time you even started to joke and laugh with each other, you didn't feel as lonely as you used to and you started to like it here.

He told you about his past and the things he did and how sometimes things just went out of his control and that he is a human too and that everyone makes mistakes, you even saw him in a different light and knew that he was doing what he grew up thinking was right and he only did it to please his father who also was cooperating in this business til this day.

...

Taehyung came home one night and blood was dripping from his hands and it was all over his clothes and shoes.

His eyes where empty of emotions it made you worried about him "what happened?" You asked frantic, you never saw him like this before, if you didn't know him you'd be terrified of him.

He didn't answer you, he was shaking slightly and his face was smeared with blood maybe even tears you didn't know but it looks like it.

you ran him a warm bath and told him to sit in the tub while you washed the blood away he was staring at you, you didn't understand the look he had in his eyes but it was warm and it sent shivers down your spine and you could feel the butterflies turn round and round in your stomach.

You were done wipping the blood from his face and you washed his soft dark hair and came to turn to wash his back but that's when he held your hands and stopped you.

"Stay like this with me for a little" he spoke quietly, you're not sure if you heard him or not but you felt like you were in a trance.

The way he was looking at you made it so hard for you to decline so you stayed, your hands were locked together on the edge of the bathtub.

"_____?"

"Hmm?" You hummed as you stare at the water that slowly covers his long legs.

"Get in the bath with me...I'm cold"

Your head shot up and you stared at him

"But the water is warm" you told him he shakes head "no...I want you"

You sigh and come to strip off just from your pajamas but he stops you and tells you to just get in and you oblige he makes you sit in his lap facing him and he cuddles you, resting his head on your chest with his eyes closed.

You run your fingers through his hair smiling, you never saw him like this it sure was amusing "are you okay tae?" You asked after a few moments he nodded you smiled more when you heard him say "now I am"

He pulled away and creased your cheek softly his eyes looking in yours then you see a small smile make it's way onto his beautiful face then his eyes travel lower staring at your lips then back up at you.

You heart was hammering against your ribcage and you wanted to run and hide away from how much you were blushing.

"_____ can I... kiss you?" Taehyung whispered.

You felt something bloom inside of you, you nodded and he moved slowly closer to you capturing your lips between his and kissing you gently.

It felt like it lasted for long but when he pulled away you didn't want him to so you pulled him for another and another until he was gripping your sides and grinding against you he helped you slip off your wet shirt and started to kiss your neck while your fingers tug at his hair moaning with pleasure.

You feel him pick you up and slam you against the wall as he kisses you passionately, both of you were breathing heavily you pulled away from each other to catch your breath, he helped you take off your clothes and his boxers.

You heard him moan when your skin rubbed against his, his fingers slowly started to rub your clit you threw your head back and moaned at the feeling.

He smirked and kissed your neck while he kept moving his finger inside you and added one more, you went insane at the feeling he pulled his fingers out when you were about to climax you whined at the loss, you saw him lick your juices off while holding your gaze it was the most sexist thing you have ever seen looking at him with his fringe wet and messy could get you off right this minute but you didn't "let's go to my room" he told you shutting the faucet off, the tub was overflowing with water now he helped you get out of the tub and kissed you all the way until you reached his bed he threw you over and climbed ontop touching you and squeezing you in the right places and where you needed him most.

You heard him chuckle "so needy" he purrs and you nod "please taehyung please-" you cried he went to the bedside table and pulled out a condom sliding it onto his length, your mouth watered at the sight you wanted to suck him off but he stopped you "not tonight babygirl" he pinned your arms above your head and kissed you slowly moving his dick inside you, it took you a while to adjust from how big he is, your bottom lip was bleeding from how much you were biting it, he kissed your head "shhh it's gonna be okay the pain will go away" you cried and he kept giving you small pecks "you're doing so well princess" your walls clenched around him you were about to burst from how he feels inside you "you're so fucking tight" he grunts throwing his head in the nape of your neck the feeling of your walls clenching around him felt overwhelming his hip thrusts were faster and stronger it hit your soft spot until you screamed at the feeling of your climax taking over, he came soon after while kissing you deeply.

Then he laid next to you holding you close as you both were catching your breaths.

And maybe just maybe you started falling in love with taehyung.

_

Months turned into years and your relationship with taehyung was getting stronger by the days, he let you see and visit your mother when Christopher wasn't home.

You learned that after taehyung took you, Christopher started looking for jobs to support your mother and himself since the only income they had was from you and when you were gone they didn't have it anymore so Christopher finally took matters into his own hands and was becoming a bit better.

You didn't ask about his drug addiction nor do you care you just spent time with your mother and then your body guard drove you home.

Taehyung had a lot of good influence on you he encouraged you to do and try the things you always wanted to try, you're much more happier and confident, taehyung helped you discover who you are and be your own person.

You got your life back on track and started to attend university with taehyung's help of course and you couldn't be happier that you have a healthy relationship built on trust with someone like taehyung and the life you always wanted...

A happier,safer life.

20/20 Albums of the Year

Circles by Mac Miller  |  Hip-Hop, Soul, Funk Released: January 17, 2020

Best Album For... Pouring One Out for Mac

I wrote a few different drafts of this album summary, and none of them felt like they really fit the impossibly large bill of accurately describing the posthumous importance or brilliance of this album. If you are a fan of hip-hop or soul music of any kind, try to give this piece of work a chance. I for one, used to judge Mac based on his early frat rap days in the late 2000s. But a decade later he came to leave the world with one of the most surprising and frankly impressive artistic evolutions that I’ve been able to witness in real time. RIP Mac.

Marigold by Pinegrove  |  Alternative Country and Folk Rock Released: January 17, 2020

Best Album For… Passing Through a Small Town on a Cloudy Winter Day 

Pinegrove was one of the last great concerts I got to experience before the pandemic. And it was my favorite performance of theirs from the last 6 years of seeing them play live. Is this my favorite album of theirs? Honestly, it’s not. But I still find it extremely enjoyable, and the memory of seeing these songs performed live, along with some of their classics, was enough for me to include it on this list. This is an album that marks Pinegrove’s exit from their pop punk roots. It’s still sentimental, but much more country and folk rock focused vs. anything trying to be associated with emo or punk.

Watch This Liquid Pour Itself by Okay Kaya  |  Synth Pop, Art Rock, Folk Released: January 24, 2020

Best Album For… Crywanking at 3am, Bathed in The Dull Light of Your Overheating Laptop

What if Feist and Father John Misty had a secret love child? They might sound something like Okay Kaya. Self proclaimed “Singer ~ Crywanker,” Okay Kaya brings serious BDE to weirdo art pop that she seems like she could be a plant  from the mind of Nathan Fielder. Kaya delivers with such deadpan precision as she rolls out line after line of sarcastic joy, staring blankly at our dystopian reality. “Here I am, the whole world is my daddy,” “Netflix and yeast infection,” “Sex with me is mediocre,” “I just want us to do well like Jon Bon Jovi’s Rosê,” and, “My parasite and I are blushing / In the zero interaction ramen bar,” are just a few examples of some of her memorable and biting lyrics. The entire album is both a critique and nihilistic fondness for the absurdity of our lonely technological society, not quite sure how to deal with taboos like repressed female sexuality, depression, and codependency.

Start With: “Baby Little Tween” or “Asexual Wellbeing”

UNLOCKED by Denzel Curry and Kenny Beats  |  Hip-Hop Released: February 7, 2020

Best Album For... Nodding Your Damn Head To, Feeling Cooler Than You Actually Are

I had to double check that this was an album. Clocking in under 20 minutes, this collection of songs feels more like an EP, especially with the track titles that purposefully look like file names and placeholders. But for a short album, Denzel wastes no time, furiously zigging and zagging effortlessly over Kenny Beats’ 90s New York-indebted production (ad libs and all). Kenny pulls out samples of an array of pop culture references made by Denzel (like quotes from movies and weapon sound effects like a lightsaber) — as he rotates his flow between admirable impressions of DMX, Nas, and Joey Bada$$.

Cardboard City by Zack Villere  |  Pop, Electronic, R&B Released: February 14, 2020

Best Album For… Pal-ing Around With Your Friends From High School, Maybe Quoting Superbad At The Same Time

The first time I watched a music video from Zack Villere, I noticed the top comment said: “how did frank ocean get trapped in mark zuckerberg.” And while that definitely gets at the heart of how Zack Villere presents himself, he is not a phenomenal singer like Frank Ocean is, nor does he come off as an asshole like Mark Zuckerberg does. I would say that he is just a slightly awkward nerdy white guy who loves hip-hop production and R&B melodies. So the better question is really, “how did drake get trapped in michael cera?” This premise should not work at all, but somehow it does. This is only Villere’s second album, but he shows some serious production and songwriting chops, plus a commitment to his delivery that comes across as genuine, charming, and unique.

The Slow Rush by Tame Impala  |  Psych Rock, Synth Pop, Disco Released: February 14, 2020

Best Album For... Throwing a Silent Disco For One 

Tame Impala continues on their now 10 year streak of psych rock dominance. Along the way we’ve seen Kevin Parker master and stretch the boundaries of psychedelic production. This has resulted in his music coming as close to sounding like the best aspects of The Beatles, while also expanding into hip hop drums, R&B hooks, plus more and more electronic elements. This is an album that I was not super impressed with when it initially came out, but as we entered the pandemic and were tasked with finding small joys in staying at home all the time, I found myself going back to this album and appreciating the themes of solitude and self reflection that Parker has drawn from throughout his career.

Start With: “Posthumous Forgiveness” or “One More Hour”

1988 by Knxwledge  |  Hip-Hop Released: March 27, 2020

Best Album For... Pumping Your Brakes and Driving Slow, Uh *Homie* Although this album is named after a year in the 80s, the sound here is a perfect portal back to 90s golden era hip-hop, with all the gospel, soul samples, and the kind of deep bass you want to feel in your chest. This is the rare, largely instrumental hip-hop album that I find myself going back to, other than works from the legendary J Dilla and MF Doom. Knxwledge is good friends and a frequent collaborator with Anderson .Paak (in the form of NxWorries). Here we get Anderson to grace us with his presence on the track “itkanbe[sonice]”, and of course it sounds just like an authentic vintage soul sample. When I hear this collection of songs it makes me wish I still had a car, so I could inevitably damage my speakers listening to this.

Future Nostalgia by Dua Lipa  |  Pop, R&B, Funk, Disco Released: March 27, 2020 Best Album For... Alarming Your Pet With Your Enthusiastic Lip Syncing

This album is a pure sugar rush. Like Bruno Mars with the help of Mark Ronson, or Calvin Harris a few years ago, Dua has harnessed a nostalgia (it’s even in the title, wink) for disco, funk and R&B, and is instantly a sexy, catchy, not-so-guilty pleasure. It’s sad that the majority of these songs are all bonafide club hits that didn’t have a proper home this year … except for my living room. And hopefully yours.

Hold Space For Me by Orion Sun  |  Alternative R&B and Hip-Hop Released: March 27, 2020

Best Album For... Wishing Frank Ocean Was Your Dad

“Alternative R&B” is a contentious term, but what else would you call one of a few R&B singers cool enough to make it onto (NYC indie darlings) Mom+Pop Records?? On one hand, she brings the vulnerable and introverted lyrics of an indie singer songwriter like Tracey Chapman, crossed with the raw presence and sweet melodic delivery of a true R&B star like Aaliyah. I’d even go far enough to refer to her as the musical stepchild of Frank Ocean and SZA.

You and Your Friends by Peach Pit  |  Indie Rock and Dream Pop Released: April 3, 2020

Best Album For... Going Back To Your College Town To Crash A Party

Peach Pit seem like they would be cool dudes to hang out with. You have no problem picturing them as the band playing a house show in an indie movie about college kids. And that’s because there’s a familiarity to the scenes that their songs portray, of stumbling through your 20s, either being too dumb or having too much fun to notice. It’s funny to refer to this as “Indie” rock since this is Peach Pit’s major label debut with Columbia Records. But It has all the trappings of Indie; sticky melodies, gentle reverb, an “I’m not trying that hard” vibe, and lyrics that are oddly specific enough to be interesting, but still vague enough to be relatable.

Heaven To a Tortured Mind by Yves Tumor  |  Psych Rock, Indie Pop, Post-Punk, Alternative R&B, Experimental Electronic Released: April 3, 2020

Best Album For... Tearing Up The Fucking Dance Floor With Your Hot Robot Girlfriend

If Tyler the Creator, Alex G, King Krule, and Blood Orange all got into the studio together and dropped a shit ton of acid on Halloween, their recording session might sound something like Heaven To a Tortured Mind… And even then, you still might have trouble putting your finger on exactly what you’re hearing. “Dream Palette” is a good reference track for Tumor’s most wild and mesmerizing qualities. The biggest styles of the past half century of music have been loaded into this gleefully effective genre blender, with blades of dissonance slicing everything up, creating a surrealist sonic smoothie.

The New Abnormal by The Strokes  |  Indie Rock, Dirtbag Disco, Synth Pop Released: April 10, 2020

Best Album For... Mixing Yourself Another Drink This Saturday Night

Back from the dead, The Strokes return with their first album in 7 years to turn some heads and settle back into some old habits. The charming messy haired garage rock of the early 2000s still pops up here and there, but this is really a record where the group is mature enough to show you that they actually are trying, and are unafraid to take joyous swings for the fences. Julian Casablancas pushes his scratchy alley cat yelp of a voice into something more vulnerable, sunny, and sweet, like he asked for a piña colada (you know, with one of those little umbrellas) instead of a double shot of scotch before hopping up on stage… Or maybe he did both. But these days, everyone is looking for some sort of break from our groundhog day lives any way that we can. Sometimes that sounds like selling out, or depending on how you look at it, stepping up. This album is the result of a group of old friends who got together to make music they simply want to make for themselves. Now far removed from the 2000s New York scene where their younger selves were acting too cool and disaffected to care about having fun.

The Loves of Your Life by Hamilton Leithauser  |  Indie Rock and Alternative Country Released: April 10, 2020

Best Album For... Drinking Down At The Docks, Watching The Sun Set

While I am a fan of The Walkmen, I have no idea what their frontman Hamilton Leithauser looks like or how he dresses. But hearing these songs off of his latest solo, I imagine the following: a member of Mumford and Sons if they were edgy and cooler, giving off a “cowboy rocker meets depression-era dock worker” aesthetic. That’s exactly how his music comes off to me. It’s a convincing blend of blues rock, Americana, and old timey country music. All expertly narrated by dusty country guitars and standup bass, tarnished horns and flutes, and what I imagine to be a restored saloon piano. The Loves of Your Life originally started as a collection of short stories, each about characters based on both people he knew and strangers. Leithauser then wrote the music separately, and finally came to mix and match their parts together in a surprisingly convincing fashion to create the album.

What Kinda Music by Tom Misch and Yussef Dayes  |  Neo-Soul, Electronic, Hip-Hop

Released: April 24, 2020

Best Album For... Cooking For Someone You’re In Love With

Exactly what kind of music do Tom Misch and Yussef Dayes make? It’s orchestral, it’s jazz-infused, it’s hip-hop beats joined with gentle soul. It’s a little sexy, it’s a little mysterious, and you’re going to want to listen to it a whole lot. That’s it. That’s what kind of music it is! Send tweet.

Petals For Armor by Hayley Williams  |  Electronic Pop and Art Rock Released: May 8, 2020

Best Album For... Browsing Depop for Your Next 80s Normcore ‘Fit

Hayley, Hayley, Hayley. You are too good for this wretched world!! After exploring more adventurous sounds and genre hopping over the last few Paramore records, Hayley decided to go out on her own. This really frees herself from the expectations that come along with being the face and heart of a wildly popular band for the last 15+ years. Thom Yorke fans rejoice, because Hayley Williams has a clear admiration for Radiohead’s haunting indie electronic vibe, while emoting some pain and darkness atop her love for 80s pop and art rock (think Genesis, Devo, The Talking Heads). This is a promising new avenue for Hayley to explore herself and process her pain and desire completely on her own. I see this new project of hers only blooming further from here.

Set My Heart On Fire Immediately by Perfume Genius  |  Indie Pop and Art Rock Released: May 15, 2020

Best Album For... Daydreaming That You Were Somewhere Else

For his 5th studio album, Perfume Genius enlists production wizard and guitar god Blake Mills, along with Grammy Award-winning arranger and multi-instrumentalist Rob Moose to create a beautiful swirling mosaic of 80s pastel pop that also packs serious classic rock grandeur. Bass guitar dances between satin smooth lines on one song to churning distorted currents on the next. Sparkling string arrangements and organs bleed together to expose a fading sunset that you’ll want to try and hold in your hands to keep it in sight. Perfume Genius is unafraid to challenge traditional masculinity, packing a 21st century queer machismo into both the quiet moments and jubilant explosions.

græ by Moses Sumney  |  Indie Pop, Art Rock, Neo-Soul, Psychic Folk Released: May 15, 2020

Best Album For... Astral Projection 101 

I mean this in the best way possible, but I think that Moses Sumney is a witch. Or maybe a wizard? There’s no other reasonable explanation for the level of creativity and wonder that he summons. This album feels like a private concert by a waterfall (similar to one on the cover), with ethereal pleas, and heavy ideas—like meditating on what lies beyond the constraints of the physical self and reconsidering how well we can actually trust memory and the mind. Sumney layers his voice to create the effect of a ghostly choir, accented by a stark intimidating falsetto that reverberates through the ruins of an abandoned temple where Sumney is the only one in attendance.

WILL THIS MAKE ME GOOD by Nick Hakim  |  Psychedelic Neo-Soul Released: May 15, 2020

Best Album For... Playing Pool in a Hazy Dive Bar

Nick Hakim is a silky smooth smokey crooner who paints with warbly piano loops, dreamy reverb-heavy guitar, boom bap beats—not to mention a falsetto that would make Smokey Robinson jealous. Clearly a fan of Motown and 60s jazz, Hakim could be considered a peer of Thunder Cat and Anderson .Paak’s to a degree. I remember seeing him perform at Music Hall of Williamsburg a few years ago. The performance ended with him falling down on stage (presumably from being under the influence of multiple substances). But while the song continued he popped back up and belted an impressive high note like it was nothing, drink in hand. And it’s that kind of messy beauty that also makes this album so engrossing. Like watching the eye of the storm get closer and closer, but unable to look away from the sheer magnetism that nature can wield.

RTJ4 by Run The Jewels  |  Hip-Hop Released: June 3, 2020

Best Album For... Making Your Next Protest Sign

Run The Jewels’ fourth outing might be the most unapologetically angry rap album in the “fuck this” year of 2020. And it reminded me that I should absolutely still be furious about everything that happened during this groundbreaking yet terrifyingly familiar year: country wide protests over the continued murder of innocent black people at the hands of the police, government drone strikes and detaining kids in cages, the state of our environment worsening—and that’s not even addressing the pandemic or election. Killer Mike and El-P are here to scream from the rooftops that our current system of cutthroat capitalism and white supremacy is killing the planet and its inhabitants, and I’m glad that they’re using their platform to continue to sound the alarm.

Your Hero Is Not Dead by Westerman  |  New Wave Revival and Indie Pop Released: June 5, 2020 Best Album For... Wanting Your Old School MTV

The cover of Westerman’s first proper album is mostly black and white, except for the title, which is scrawled out in lettering which spans the Crayola color spectrum. It’s an album that on the surface is cold and buttoned up, but when these choruses open up, the maximalist 80s power pop bursts like the bulbs of a neon sign. There’s a level of even-keeled cool and confidence in small moments on display here that makes this relatively new artist seem well beyond his years. Having seen him play at Rough Trade a few years ago (opening up for the stellar Puma Blue), the songwriting growth on display on this record is impressive. I’m only sad that there wasn’t an opportunity to have seen him play these new songs live.

Punisher by Phoebe Bridgers  |  Indie Rock and Alternative Country Released: June 18, 2020

Best Album For... Burning Incense and Breaking Out a Ouija Board to Talk to The Ghost of Your Former Self

This is without a doubt, a career defining release for Phoebe. Taking everything she’s learned from writing, performing, and touring with the likes of Lucy Dacus and Julien Baker (in boygenius), and Conor Oberst (in Better Oblivion Community Center), Bridgers levels up to become the truly prolific singer-songwriter she’s been telling us she would always be. Bridgers has explained her personal definition of “a punisher” as a well meaning person who’s, “just talking to you and they don’t realize that your eyes are glazed over and you’re trying to escape.” Vital to understanding this album and its central message is that Phoebe finds herself caught between the contradiction of falling victim to this phenomenon while also doing it herself, especially if she ever met her musical idol, Elliott Smith. Punisher serves as a warning to her audience that if you focus too much on trying to find yourself through other people (via escaping through fandom, drugs, toxic relationships), you’ll always feel lost and dissatisfied, without the proper self awareness to ever quite know why.

Women In Music Pt. III by HAIM  |  Rock, Pop, Folk, R&B Released: June 26, 2020

Best Album For... Preparing For A Better 2021, lol 

With this album, HAIM skyrocketed to the #1 position of family bands that start with an “H.” Sorry, Hanson! But seriously, HAIM has outdone themselves on this one. If there was one album from this list that I would dub my personal AOTY, this would be it. You might wince at any tracklist longer than 10-12 songs these days (I know I usually do), but almost every song proves itself worthy, pulling at a different thread of my heart until there’s nothing left. Sunshine State Beach Pop? Check. Blues Tinged Dad Rock? Yup! Dive Bar Country? Mmhmm! No, wait, what’s that you say, Glitched-Out R&B? Yes, yes, and yes. You can have it all, sister! ‘Cause when you’re Haim, you’re family! ;) And these three “women in music” continue to prove that they are just about the best Assorted Pop Rocks(™) act in the world right now.

Lianne La Havas by Lianne La Havas  |  Neo-Soul and Indie Pop Released: July 17, 2020

Best Album For... Sipping Coffee and Journaling on a Weekend Morning

This album exudes a warm vulnerability, like a comforting hug we all needed this year. On her third album, Lianne La Havas makes the risky decision to self title it, a move that artists make when they believe that it is the piece of work that they most want most directly associated with their name. It’s one thing to name your first album after yourself if you can’t think of anything else at the time, but to make a self titled album in the middle of your career, it means that you are sure about having captured who you really are and who you want people to remember you as. “If I love myself, I know I can't be no one else,” La Havas admits on the standout track, “Paper Thin.” She knows that she will meet her destiny and reach self actualization, but only through self love. And finally, I cannot overstate how breathtaking La Havas’s voice comes across on this album. The strength and control on display in her vocal tone and vibrato is quite a spectacle.

Kanye West, Drake, and J. Cole all paved the way for someone from the next generation like Aminé to keep the dream alive and avoid succumbing to the “feel good, don’t think” form of passive listening that mumble rap has made the standard for mainstream hip-hop.

Hey for the fic thing could u write a mingkit nsfw fic jealous!ming cuz i dont see that enough,

First things first, @moonlight-in-red there was no number specification so I just threw in a few of them. Secondly...I’ve come (haha) to the conclusion that using the word beginning with d- middle ic-end of word k is much more satisfying than that beginning c-middle oc-end of word k. If you caught that then yay! Here’s hoping you feel the same way and not too put off by the use of that word. If I counted correctly it’s only used 3 times, because there’s no point in profusely writing either word when we know what equipment is being used...but I digress and without further ado: 

Warning MingKit smut (NSFW, unprotected sex) ahead...also this will be my byline for every smut:

Read at your own kinky risk. 

Ming is very physical. Kit understood that from the beginning. What confused him now was this ravenous way in which Ming could not keep his hands off of him. More than usual. Let’s face it, Ming took any and every opportunity he could to get his hands on Kit. Granted, Kit wasn’t going to complain anymore. He’ll pretend to look annoyed, but deep down he loved every part of it. They were clinging to each other on the dance floor when hands were trying to find their way into his pants. He stopped them short and eyed Ming with a commanding gaze. Ming sighed and left him on the dance floor. Kit stood there a minute with a dumbfounded look on his face. He shook his head and went to the bar for some drinks. 

Not again. It had been happening all night. He clenched his fists. Stop, there’s no need for that. “Who’s that?” Ming pointed towards Kit. “Is that bartender flirting with him?” Forth looked over at the bar. “Yeah, he’s flirting, but it’s generally harmless. That guy is just a flirt. Kinda like yourself.” 

Ming gave Forth’s snide comment an unimpressed look. Forth shrugged it off. A buzzed Beam sank into the booth leaning completely on him. Forth threw an arm around his shoulders and Ming looked away just in time to see Kit coming with their drinks. He let Kit put them down, then grabbed his hand and dragged him back to the dance floor. Kit knew that dumbfounded look was on his face again. What was happening? 

“You having fun?” Ming yanked him in by the hips. Kit felt the intake of breath when space closed between them. Every instinct in his body told him the song playing was perfect for dirty dancing. Ming started moving their hips together. “So you didn’t answer me,” he whispered and then placed a kiss to Kit’s neck. “Are you having fun?”

“Yes and no,” Kit admitted. He felt the chill up his spine when a hand rested at the small of his back. Ming’s intention was to pin his boyfriend closer to his body. 

“Shall we leave then or did you need to check with the bartender first?” Ming snapped. He knew he shouldn’t have, but it flooded out of him before he could choke it back. Kit firmly took him by the hand towards the exit. They walked passed Forth who had a sleeping Beam on his shoulder. 

“Leaving?” Forth asked them. 

“Yes, we are. Feel free to have these drinks.” Kit pointed to the drinks he had bought him and Ming. Forth nodded. Ming looked over his shoulder at Forth. He clocked that look. He knew that look. Forth has given and received that look. Shit!  No matter what Kit was going to be sore in the morning. 

___

If Kit let Ming have his way the boy would’ve stripped him in the stairwell. Instead, Kit made him impatiently stomp up the stairs to the bedroom. He heard each dramatic stomp echo in the stairwell, thanking the Heavens they didn’t use the elevator. With that enclosed unit, Kit was 98% sure that Ming would’ve successfully stripped him. They finally reached the bedroom. To Ming, it felt like an eternity. He wrapped arms around Kit as he fumbled for his key. Once Kit turned the unlocked doorknob, Ming pushed them forward into the room and slammed the door behind him. 

“No, no, that’s enough!” Kit told him as he started shedding his clothes. “You can’t be serious. Checking in with the bartender?” Ming wanted Kit to forget about it by way of not talking. Kit stared at a completely naked Ming. He rushed him and Kit prepared for his back to hit the door. Ming frantically tugged at his shirt. Kit threw his arms up and it was off. Ming ravenously kissed him from the neck down to his stomach. He fell to his knees and looked up at Kit. 

“I can’t fucking believe this,” Kit put a finger to his chin. Magically, Ming stood to his feet. “You’re doing this because you’re jealous of that bartender.” Ming didn’t want to talk so he hungrily collided their tongues together. His hands started at his pants again so Kit pulled away finishing what his boyfriend started. Ming stepped backward because he sensed what was next. He always could. A naked Kit jumped him. Their tongues tangled again and Ming backed into the bed. He spun around, throwing Kit onto it. Ming started kissing his inner thigh. Finally, he spoke. 

“You have to admit,” Ming licked him. Kit whined a little. “This is better than a flirty bartender.” 

“I don't need other people flirting with me to get this. I could easily get this if I tried,” Kit remarked. Ming bit him. “Ouch!” he exclaimed. 

“That’s for calling me easy.” Ming gently bit Kit again. He playfully smacked him on the head. Kit knew that it wasn’t going to take much to get him harder. He didn’t think it’d happen instantaneously, the fucking second Ming’s tongue glided over the tip of his dick. For just a moment, he had all of him in his mouth and glorious sounds were starting to flow up to Kit’s ears when suddenly it stopped.“Please, don't stop,” Kit begged Ming by grabbing a handful of his hair and pushing back down. Ming chuckled and forced his way up.

“I don't think so,” Ming shook his head with disapproval. “First things first.” He leaned up and over to the end table. From the top drawer, Ming procured the lube. Kit didn’t think this was in store for the night. Actually, no, he did. Ming pumped lube on two fingers. He lifted Kit’s legs up onto his shoulders and pressed those fingers into him. Kit easily relaxed into the touch. Ming snickered, pressing deeper. With his free hand, he pumped some lube onto his dick. Kit groaned a little as Ming’s fingers moved back and forth. A moan escaped from his lips when Ming gently slid his fingers out. As punishment for himself, Kit slammed a hand over his mouth. He rarely moaned, but tonight was apparently one of those flukes. 

“Please, don't stop,” he said again. Ming smirked and gently slid his dick inside. “Come on, faster,” his boyfriend begged him.

He didn’t waste the opportunity. Ming thrust harder and faster. It was Kit’s favorite way, and frankly, it was Ming’s. When Kit let out another whine, Ming didn’t slow his pace. In fact, Kit couldn’t really be sure because he was making his way to planet ecstasy, but Ming’s pace quickened. Then as he was about to step foot on this imaginary planet inside his head, Ming stopped. It was like unpinning a grenade. If they didn’t get back to it, Kit would explode and not in a good way. He followed Ming’s movements. He was being made to flip over. So he did. Ass in the air, face planted into the bed. That was unexpected to Ming, but as before he wouldn’t let an opportunity go to waste. He squeezed hold of Kit’s hips and eased his way back inside. There was slight resistance so he lubed up again. 

“Relax,” Ming whispered and touched a hand to the small of Kit’s back. That did the trick. Ming thrust slowly at first, then sped up. Kit managed to lift himself up to his elbows. Ming stopped a moment but this gave him better access, so he squeezed Kit by the hips again and thrust hard. After several minutes, they turned back to the original position. Legs hoisted on shoulders, but this time Ming stood at the edge of the bed and pulled Kit towards him. Kit knew that this position would have him coming in minutes. There was something about it...Kit moaned again when Ming thrust into him. He leaned up and Ming was able to meet him the rest of the way for a wet kiss. Kit dropped his legs to lock around Ming’s waist. He was now completely on top of him and he never stopped thrusting. Seconds later, he felt Kit’s gasp against his lips. He looked down to see come dripping from Kit’s hand. He angled for a kiss again, but salty fingers were put into his mouth instead. Ming gladly sucked on them, not easing up on his thrusts in the least bit. In a matter of minutes, Ming pulled out, he stepped back from the bed, Kit melted his knees to the floor. He anxiously waited for Ming to finish. Most of the load ended up in Ming’s hand. Kit didn’t hesitate, he licked the bit that landed on his lips and then he took fingers into his mouth. Quid pro quo. 

A satisfied Kit stood up and locked his arms around Ming’s neck. Ming’s hands automatically latched around his waist to rest at the small of his back. “So, Mr. Jealous, should we commence round 2 in the shower?” Another opportunity. An excited Ming gave Kit his answer by scooping him up and carrying him to the bathroom.

Oct 15 Dancitron Movie Night - Bridge Of Spies

Prompted by the movie, Prowl and Soundwave had some discussions about how moral it is for punish the wicked outside of strictly legal proceedings. Lots of deep conversation about laws and morality. Prowl somehow managed to not tell Soundwave his personal moral stance on the topic.

There's only one extra being here, though, so... focusing on the Giratina, then? How odd.* [[...Correct.]] NoodlesAtNight 10:41 pm ((four minutes!)) opatoes 10:41 pm Sure, that sounds good to me.

OmicronTheIceQueen 10:41 pm O_o well....my crew loves them. more so the workers. they help isolate the little femmes. *is he giving all away or trading?* Swerester 10:41 pm Well, if no one else wants one then you can have whatever's left of the pile.

Making a messenger out of him, eh?* [[So it shall be done, creature.]] [[Goodnight, Blaster.]] Swerester 10:43 pm I think that's the whole lot then for Soundwave, but if you swing by my bar, Icey I can give you some of the the half! I'd have brought more but I couldn't actually carry more opatoes 10:43 pm I hope you're not expecting it to be easy, though, Soundwave!

For the record.]] *And back to settle.* [[But if he had.]] verdigrisprowl 10:53 pm I suppose I'd have to arrest you, wouldn't I? NoodlesAtNight 10:53 pm [[With a proper warrant, he assumes.]] verdigrisprowl 10:53 pm Of /course./ NoodlesAtNight 10:53 pm [[And after that? What would you wish to see happen?]] NoodlesAtNight 10:54 pm [[And how would he be treated in prison?]] verdigrisprowl 10:54 pm ... How insulted are you going to be if I say "you in jail for your crimes"? NoodlesAtNight 10:56 pm [[He would be more insulted if you didn't. He does not expect specialized treatment from you. That you know when to put what is good before his personal connection to you is one of the things he trusts most.]] [[But he hopes you would want it done fairly. That he would be allowed a Donovan.]] [[And not a judge such as the one portrayed.]] verdigrisprowl 10:58 pm Of course I would want it done fairly. Although ideally your Donovan wouldn't have anything about the procedure to try to appeal. NoodlesAtNight 10:59 pm [[Ideally. If you were the one in charge of it, he is sure they would not. But - assuming an underling botched it. ... What then?]] NoodlesAtNight 11:00 pm *Does not wish to move from his spot; twists a feeler around to look at Prowl instead.* verdigrisprowl 11:02 pm *he's quiet a moment. and then lets out a long, hard sigh.* If I'm to remain committed to my current path—the charges... would have to be dropped. NoodlesAtNight 11:03 pm [[But you would not like it.]] *He knows that sigh. He knows it well.* verdigrisprowl 11:03 pm Do you know why Megatron is locked up in Metroplex, instead of sentenced and dealt with? NoodlesAtNight 11:03 pm [[Because neither he nor Starscream know where the mech is yet.]] verdigrisprowl 11:04 pm Do you know why Megatron /was put/ in Metroplex, instead of sentenced and dealt with? NoodlesAtNight 11:05 pm [[Ah.]] *That is a different question altogether.* [[He knows it is something to do with the Knights of Cybertron. The rest? He is still trying to understand all that went into what little he has scraped together about that trial.]] *In other words: Not quite, no.* NoodlesAtNight 11:06 pm [[Surprisingly few mechs care to discuss it with him. Something about Soundwaves being untrustworthy loyalists.]] *Rattle vent snort.* verdigrisprowl 11:07 pm Because Megatron asked for the trial to be moved to Luna Two. And, when he lost pleasure in the direction the trial was moving, revealed that he knew of an ancient Luna Two law that said crimes over a certain threshold are so severe they may be only judged by the Knights of Cybertron. He did this so that he could delay the trial indefinitely—stick himself in legal limbo where his trial cannot continue. verdigrisprowl 11:08 pm His defense attorney refused to allow the trial to be relocated to Cybertron, where the law doesn't apply, so that we could properly sentence him for all that /genocide/ he committed. His defense attorney was obeying the law. His defense attorney was doing his job. Was he promoting justice? Was he doing the RIGHT thing? The CORRECT thing? verdigrisprowl 11:09 pm Because he did the LEGAL thing—because he DID HIS JOB—Megatron has escaped sentencing for crimes that everyone, EVERYONE, knows beyond the slightest shadow of a doubt that he committed. verdigrisprowl 11:10 pm Is that /ethical/? Obedience to the law above all else? NoodlesAtNight 11:11 pm [[Ah. You throw one of his oldest questions for you back at him. He accepts it.]] *And lifts a finger to his mask, thinking.* NoodlesAtNight 11:12 pm [[There is nothing that limits the application of the Luna Two law? Nothing concerning where the crimes were committed, nothing about whether the mech is a citizen, nothing more modern overriding it? Was it proven to have been on the books at all?]] verdigrisprowl 11:14 pm Megatron followed the letter of the law. You're dodging the question by trying to find out whether what he did might have been illegal. I'm asking you whether or not it's more important to do what's legal than to continue with the sentencing of a genocidal warlord who has a habit of slipping out of prison if you give him enough time to think up how to do it. verdigrisprowl 11:15 pm Don't reframe the question. NoodlesAtNight 11:15 pm [[No, he is asking to find out whether the defense attorney WAS doing his job.]] verdigrisprowl 11:16 pm He was. You're still trying to reframe the question. NoodlesAtNight 11:18 pm [[He is not. If the mech playing defense attorney erred, then it is not a matter of strict obedience of the law. If that is so, then this is an invalid example, and it is possible to get around Megatron's scheming. Which, you can imagine, he would love to do. Since you insist it is not, then he did do the job, and he must think about the example exactly as presented. He dislikes answering things he does not have a full story for, when those answers are available. So...]] verdigrisprowl 11:19 pm There—right there! You are! I laid out the scenario and you're questioning me about loopholes! If there were a loophole to every moral quandary there wouldn't BE moral quandaries because we could just loophole our way out of them! verdigrisprowl 11:20 pm Do you have to test every angle on the structure of the example before answering it on the terms as they've been laid out? verdigrisprowl 11:21 pm What would you have done if I'd gone "oh, yeah, no, we actually DON'T know whether or not that law is real," called us idiots for not checking and then refused to answer the original question all together because it's now been made "invalid" by your standards? NoodlesAtNight 11:22 pm [[He would not have called you idiots. Putting the mech in temporary holding while you investigate is perfectly fine. And he doesn't know if he would have answered. He might have answered /both/ forms of it. As he has been thinking of doing.]] verdigrisprowl 11:22 pm DO you think we're idiots that didn't check? Do you think /I/ didn't search for every single loophole that could have possibly wiggled us out of the corner that he pushed us into? NoodlesAtNight 11:24 pm [[He doesn't /know/. He was not /here/ then. He does not know what you did in response to that revelation, or if you are still having to try to do it. Perhaps he would have offered /assistance/ if it had been necessary!]] NoodlesAtNight 11:25 pm [[For Primus' sake, he only received a full copy of the Tyrest Accord from you last week.]] verdigrisprowl 11:25 pm The Tyrest Accord is in the public domain! NoodlesAtNight 11:25 pm [[Do you think he would /trust/ the copies anyone else has?]] verdigrisprowl 11:26 pm ... /It's in the public domain/! You can—look it up in public—/everyone agrees/ to it, why the /hell/ would somebody—what good would anybody get from an /inaccurate/— verdigrisprowl 11:27 pm /Who the hell do you think would/— verdigrisprowl 11:27 pm *he's flabbergasted. he's completely gasted his flabber. he cannot, he is unable to can.* NoodlesAtNight 11:27 pm [[A scheming Megatron about to face imprisonment, exile, or death for his genocides with someone like his alternate at his side?]] verdigrisprowl 11:27 pm *at this point he's just sort of gesturing in bafflement* NoodlesAtNight 11:28 pm [[The faction was not called the Truthicons.]] [[But, as you present it--]] verdigrisprowl 11:28 pm ... There—are— *gestures vaguely toward outer space* NoodlesAtNight 11:44 pm [[If every action taken was found to be by the book, and everything Megatron claimed is true, then... then Megatron escapes his punishment, yes. But only for now. Laws written without multiversal contacts in mind cannot exclude them; the law will right itself as soon as we locate the /other/ Knights we know to exist.]]

[[...Even if that were not so, he has recently toyed with the idea that those who uphold the laws as strictly as you expect may be balanced by those who will sacrifice themselves to that law to speed what it must take a mech like you longer to correct. If Megatron lingers forever, and a mech terminates him, that mech may be given a trial of their own. Then all things are made right.]]

[[He does not /know/ if it was right, or correct. He is still struggling to find out what right and correct /is/. He thinks that there were /worse/ ways to have handled it. He thinks there are many things that could have been done that were made for mechs like him to bear, and not mechs l NoodlesAtNight 11:45 pm like you.]]

[[But he cannot say for certain. This is why he asks you these things, and speaks with you about them.... when our temperaments and our contrasting views do not get in the way.]] NoodlesAtNight 11:46 pm [[He wanted to know what /you/ thought. Whether /you/ would be displeased. Not what he thought of it. He knows what he would do, and it is not by the law.]] verdigrisprowl 11:49 pm *listens quietly; huffs at the ending.* You were quite pleased when /this/ *he nods at the screen* went by the law. And cried "corruption" at someone who was bending the law to try to make his conviction faster and easier. So why is the judge corrupt whereas somebody who martyrs himself to the law in order to execute Megatron correct? Because the spy was more sympathetic than Megatron? Because you dislike judges more than you dislike desperate assassins? verdigrisprowl 11:52 pm I don't think anything. Rather, I can think at any point of the spectrum—from "any means are justified by the end" to "the law above and beyond all else." I pick and choose where I'm going to sit on that spectrum because I have been forced, quite unhappily, to see the merits and drawbacks to every point on it. NoodlesAtNight 11:53 pm [[The judge swore to uphold his duty, not to be /him/. If the judge wants to corrupt himself, then he may announce what he has done afterward and be taken to task for it. That would, however, undo what was already decided, and a better judge would be found. Then the outcome might be whatever it could have been had the judge done his duty properly. The final result is that the correct actions by what he swore to do all lead to a fair trial, and if that is so, then denying that and not announcing himself makes him unworthy of his robes.]] verdigrisprowl 11:54 pm But I think there's something... hypocritical, in being able to look at Megatron's trial with nuance—in being able to see that it might become necessary and even correct for someone to go outside the law in order to get rid of him—while utterly decrying the judge without considering that his position may be necessary and even correct. NoodlesAtNight 11:54 pm [[And,]] *soft huff* [[you are right. He is somewhat in favor of the spy, for obvious reasons.]] verdigrisprowl 11:54 pm And I think it says more about your opinion on judges than it does about any moral position. NoodlesAtNight 11:55 pm [[But he, at least, is more honest about being dishonest.]] verdigrisprowl 11:55 pm Oh, well, that makes it alright. NoodlesAtNight 11:55 pm [[It does not.]] NoodlesAtNight 11:57 pm [[But he prefers mechs who are honest about their dishonesty over those who are dishonest about their honesty. At least with the former you know they may not always be trusted. The spy may be a spy; what damage the judge does, we may never know.]] verdigrisprowl 11:58 pm The damage he did was convicting a spy. And /not/ knowing what else he may or may not have done—I cannot fault /that/. What damage the spy does, we may never know, no matter how honest he is about being a spy. verdigrisprowl 11:59 pm The spy isn't better. NoodlesAtNight 11:59 pm [[Then both are wrong.]] Today verdigrisprowl 12:01 am ... Bold words from a spymaster. NoodlesAtNight 12:02 am [[Who has never laid claim to being a lawful, moral, wholesome mech. Merely one who is as honest as he can be about what he /is/.]]

[[He did suggest he was toying with the idea that it would be right for him to be punished if he terminated Megatron, after all.]] verdigrisprowl 12:03 am Toying with. *huff.* You sounded pretty certain earlier. verdigrisprowl 12:04 am ... For the record, don't go try to execute Megatron. NoodlesAtNight 12:05 am [[His mind can be changed, in either direction, with evidence.]] *Small shoulder shrug.* [[For now, that is the idea he is temporarily holding.]]

[[And he couldn't even if he'd planned to try. He has no idea where the mech is.]] verdigrisprowl 12:06 am Mm, well. Somebody does. NoodlesAtNight 12:06 am [[...But if it came to the two of us, he would prefer you weren't the one who did it.]] [[For what that is worth.]] [[And yes. Somebody does.]] verdigrisprowl 12:07 am ... When I made the decision that I wasn't going to be law-abiding, the statement I was making was /not/ "I think other people should be the ones to do the dirty work." NoodlesAtNight 12:07 am [[He knows. You do not want to be Optimus.]]

*Pets Swoop's crest.* If you can nip my wing or touch it, I'll count it as a catch, kay? Then we can keep going until one of us tires. verdigrisprowl 8:39 pm But it's not corruption.

I hope we get to see organic courts, they're pretty wild. They might have a parrot testify. SCProwl 8:43 pm A what? opatoes 8:43 pm A parrot! They're birds.

Yes, that part. ... It's still not "corruption." It's something just as bad as corruption, but it doesn't meat the definition.

Don't they have to send him home? [how do human laws work???] verdigrisprowl 8:52 pm I believe that personal benefit is an integral part of the definition of corruption. OmicronTheIceQueen 8:52 pm *hopes she's been raising her broods well...* MedicalMurdersaurus 8:52 pm *dives after her with a shriek* verdigrisprowl 8:52 pm The judge's conduct was horrible, but it didn't come with a personal benefit.

There is legal grounds for an appeal. thebestdecepticonleader 9:01 pm Hello there little one. *pet pet* NoodlesAtNight 9:01 pm *Glance.* [[And you support him seeking one?]] verdigrisprowl 9:01 pm However, the man IS a spy. He is, indeed, actually guilty of the crime of which he's being accused. thebestdecepticonleader 9:01 pm Are we 100% sure he is a spy and not falsely accused? SpecsTheSpectralDragon 9:01 pm Spies happen. Wherever there are secrets, people want to learn them. They still deserve to be treated justly. verdigrisprowl 9:02 pm Well, yes, we saw him in the middle of spy work. They found the evidence. They found the evidence illegally, but they found the evidence. SpecsTheSpectralDragon 9:02 pm Goddess, who would do that?

He should have been arrested with all the proper warrants, and his defense should have been given the adequate time to prepare the defense. NoodlesAtNight 9:04 pm [[...Thank you, Jazz.]] verdigrisprowl 9:04 pm And then he should have been convicted for his crimes. NoodlesAtNight 9:04 pm [[He was not, however.

What then?]] NoodlesAtNight 11:00 pm *Does not wish to move from his spot; twists a feeler around to look at Prowl instead.* verdigrisprowl 11:02 pm *he's quiet a moment. and then lets out a long, hard sigh.* If I'm to remain committed to my current path—the charges... would have to be dropped. NoodlesAtNight 11:03 pm [[But you would not like it.]] *He knows that sigh. He knows it well.* verdigrisprowl 11:03 pm Do you know why Megatron is locked up in Metroplex, instead of sentenced and dealt with? NoodlesAtNight 11:03 pm [[Because neither he nor Starscream know where the mech is yet.]] verdigrisprowl 11:04 pm Do you know why Megatron /was put/ in Metroplex, instead of sentenced and dealt with? NoodlesAtNight 11:05 pm [[Ah.]] *That is a different question altogether.* [[He knows it is something to do with the Knights of Cybertron. The rest? He is still trying to understand all that went into what little he has scraped together about that trial.]] *In other words: Not quite, no.* NoodlesAtNight 11:06 pm [[Surprisingly few mechs care to discuss it with him. Something about Soundwaves being untrustworthy loyalists.]] *Rattle vent snort.* verdigrisprowl 11:07 pm Because Megatron asked for the trial to be moved to Luna Two. And, when he lost pleasure in the direction the trial was moving, revealed that he knew of an ancient Luna Two law that said crimes over a certain threshold are so severe they may be only judged by the Knights of Cybertron. He did this so that he could delay the trial indefinitely—stick himself in legal limbo where his trial cannot continue. verdigrisprowl 11:08 pm His defense attorney refused to allow the trial to be relocated to Cybertron, where the law doesn't apply, so that we could properly sentence him for all that /genocide/ he committed. His defense attorney was obeying the law. His defense attorney was doing his job. Was he promoting justice? Was he doing the RIGHT thing? The CORRECT thing? verdigrisprowl 11:09 pm Because he did the LEGAL thing—because he DID HIS JOB—Megatron has escaped sentencing for crimes that everyone, EVERYONE, knows beyond the slightest shadow of a doubt that he committed. verdigrisprowl 11:10 pm Is that /ethical/? Obedience to the law above all else? NoodlesAtNight 11:11 pm [[Ah. You throw one of his oldest questions for you back at him. He accepts it.]] *And lifts a finger to his mask, thinking.* NoodlesAtNight 11:12 pm [[There is nothing that limits the application of the Luna Two law? Nothing concerning where the crimes were committed, nothing about whether the mech is a citizen, nothing more modern overriding it? Was it proven to have been on the books at all?]] verdigrisprowl 11:14 pm Megatron followed the letter of the law. You're dodging the question by trying to find out whether what he did might have been illegal. I'm asking you whether or not it's more important to do what's legal than to continue with the sentencing of a genocidal warlord who has a habit of slipping out of prison if you give him enough time to think up how to do it. verdigrisprowl 11:15 pm Don't reframe the question. NoodlesAtNight 11:15 pm [[No, he is asking to find out whether the defense attorney WAS doing his job.]] verdigrisprowl 11:16 pm He was. You're still trying to reframe the question. NoodlesAtNight 11:18 pm [[He is not. If the mech playing defense attorney erred, then it is not a matter of strict obedience of the law. If that is so, then this is an invalid example, and it is possible to get around Megatron's scheming. Which, you can imagine, he would love to do. Since you insist it is not, then he did do the job, and he must think about the example exactly as presented. He dislikes answering things he does not have a full story for, when those answers are available. So...]] verdigrisprowl 11:19 pm There—right there! You are! I laid out the scenario and you're questioning me about loopholes! If there were a loophole to every moral quandary there wouldn't BE moral quandaries because we could just loophole our way out of them! verdigrisprowl 11:20 pm Do you have to test every angle on the structure of the example before answering it on the terms as they've been laid out? verdigrisprowl 11:21 pm What would you have done if I'd gone "oh, yeah, no, we actually DON'T know whether or not that law is real," called us idiots for not checking and then refused to answer the original question all together because it's now been made "invalid" by your standards? NoodlesAtNight 11:22 pm [[He would not have called you idiots. Putting the mech in temporary holding while you investigate is perfectly fine. And he doesn't know if he would have answered. He might have answered /both/ forms of it. As he has been thinking of doing.]] verdigrisprowl 11:22 pm DO you think we're idiots that didn't check? Do you think /I/ didn't search for every single loophole that could have possibly wiggled us out of the corner that he pushed us into? NoodlesAtNight 11:24 pm [[He doesn't /know/. He was not /here/ then. He does not know what you did in response to that revelation, or if you are still having to try to do it. Perhaps he would have offered /assistance/ if it had been necessary!]] NoodlesAtNight 11:25 pm [[For Primus' sake, he only received a full copy of the Tyrest Accord from you last week.]] verdigrisprowl 11:25 pm The Tyrest Accord is in the public domain! NoodlesAtNight 11:25 pm [[Do you think he would /trust/ the copies anyone else has?]] verdigrisprowl 11:26 pm ... /It's in the public domain/! You can—look it up in public—/everyone agrees/ to it, why the /hell/ would somebody—what good would anybody get from an /inaccurate/— verdigrisprowl 11:27 pm /Who the hell do you think would/— verdigrisprowl 11:27 pm *he's flabbergasted. he's completely gasted his flabber. he cannot, he is unable to can.* NoodlesAtNight 11:27 pm [[A scheming Megatron about to face imprisonment, exile, or death for his genocides with someone like his alternate at his side?]] verdigrisprowl 11:27 pm *at this point he's just sort of gesturing in bafflement* NoodlesAtNight 11:28 pm [[The faction was not called the Truthicons.]] [[But, as you present it--]] verdigrisprowl 11:28 pm ... There—are— *gestures vaguely toward outer space* NoodlesAtNight 11:44 pm [[If every action taken was found to be by the book, and everything Megatron claimed is true, then... then Megatron escapes his punishment, yes. But only for now. Laws written without multiversal contacts in mind cannot exclude them; the law will right itself as soon as we locate the /other/ Knights we know to exist.]]

[[...Even if that were not so, he has recently toyed with the idea that those who uphold the laws as strictly as you expect may be balanced by those who will sacrifice themselves to that law to speed what it must take a mech like you longer to correct. If Megatron lingers forever, and a mech terminates him, that mech may be given a trial of their own. Then all things are made right.]]

[[He does not /know/ if it was right, or correct. He is still struggling to find out what right and correct /is/. He thinks that there were /worse/ ways to have handled it. He thinks there are many things that could have been done that were made for mechs like him to bear, and not mechs l NoodlesAtNight 11:45 pm like you.]]

[[But he cannot say for certain. This is why he asks you these things, and speaks with you about them.... when our temperaments and our contrasting views do not get in the way.]] NoodlesAtNight 11:46 pm [[He wanted to know what /you/ thought. Whether /you/ would be displeased. Not what he thought of it. He knows what he would do, and it is not by the law.]] verdigrisprowl 11:49 pm *listens quietly; huffs at the ending.* You were quite pleased when /this/ *he nods at the screen* went by the law. And cried "corruption" at someone who was bending the law to try to make his conviction faster and easier. So why is the judge corrupt whereas somebody who martyrs himself to the law in order to execute Megatron correct? Because the spy was more sympathetic than Megatron? Because you dislike judges more than you dislike desperate assassins? verdigrisprowl 11:52 pm I don't think anything. Rather, I can think at any point of the spectrum—from "any means are justified by the end" to "the law above and beyond all else." I pick and choose where I'm going to sit on that spectrum because I have been forced, quite unhappily, to see the merits and drawbacks to every point on it. NoodlesAtNight 11:53 pm [[The judge swore to uphold his duty, not to be /him/. If the judge wants to corrupt himself, then he may announce what he has done afterward and be taken to task for it. That would, however, undo what was already decided, and a better judge would be found. Then the outcome might be whatever it could have been had the judge done his duty properly. The final result is that the correct actions by what he swore to do all lead to a fair trial, and if that is so, then denying that and not announcing himself makes him unworthy of his robes.]] verdigrisprowl 11:54 pm But I think there's something... hypocritical, in being able to look at Megatron's trial with nuance—in being able to see that it might become necessary and even correct for someone to go outside the law in order to get rid of him—while utterly decrying the judge without considering that his position may be necessary and even correct. NoodlesAtNight 11:54 pm [[And,]] *soft huff* [[you are right. He is somewhat in favor of the spy, for obvious reasons.]] verdigrisprowl 11:54 pm And I think it says more about your opinion on judges than it does about any moral position. NoodlesAtNight 11:55 pm [[But he, at least, is more honest about being dishonest.]] verdigrisprowl 11:55 pm Oh, well, that makes it alright. NoodlesAtNight 11:55 pm [[It does not.]] NoodlesAtNight 11:57 pm [[But he prefers mechs who are honest about their dishonesty over those who are dishonest about their honesty. At least with the former you know they may not always be trusted. The spy may be a spy; what damage the judge does, we may never know.]] verdigrisprowl 11:58 pm The damage he did was convicting a spy. And /not/ knowing what else he may or may not have done—I cannot fault /that/. What damage the spy does, we may never know, no matter how honest he is about being a spy. verdigrisprowl 11:59 pm The spy isn't better. NoodlesAtNight 11:59 pm [[Then both are wrong.]] Today verdigrisprowl 12:01 am ... Bold words from a spymaster. NoodlesAtNight 12:02 am [[Who has never laid claim to being a lawful, moral, wholesome mech. Merely one who is as honest as he can be about what he /is/.]]

For the record, don't go try to execute Megatron. NoodlesAtNight 12:05 am [[His mind can be changed, in either direction, with evidence.]] *Small shoulder shrug.* [[For now, that is the idea he is temporarily holding.]]

[[And he couldn't even if he'd planned to try. He has no idea where the mech is.]] verdigrisprowl 12:06 am Mm, well. Somebody does.

When I made the decision that I wasn't going to be law-abiding, the statement I was making was /not/ "I think other people should be the ones to do the dirty work." NoodlesAtNight 12:07 am [[He knows.
