Thanks to the brilliant GB here on Tumblr I was reminded of the dreamscape episode of Bastard Warrior with that whole debacle and you know I wouldn't be here if I didn't have an opinion.
Let's talk about how Albus’s perfect world didn't have Faith in it until she put herself into it.
I've brought up this point singularly in the Discord before but this is my Tumblr where I'm making it a habit of going way too into detail about shit so here we go again.
My singular point was "Even in a world of his own design, Albus refuses to make a world where Faith loves him because he doesn't feel he deserves her."
Which is...arguably correct for the time it was proposed but far too surface level for my liking.
Because even if that is the case, why would she be completely excluded? It's not exactly like Albus is known for having a lot of friends so why would he completely cut out one of the only people that has ever treated him with genuine kindness in his life? Why not add her as just a friendly face like Devlin? He made his brother a bartender so that he's never away from him but couldn't even make Faith a passing merchant?
And then I remembered something literally as I was typing this. Yes, the world is based off of Albus’s desires and what he believes his perfect world would be but he didn't actually make it. Kravitas did.
Y'know, the demon that Faith kicked in the dick literally two episodes earlier? The one that already didn't like her and now likes her even less? The one who knows she's one of Albus’s weaknesses because he cares about her whether he likes it or not? That Kravitas?
Yeah you can see where I'm going with this, can't you?
What if Kravitas purposefully cut her out so she couldn't have an effect on Albus? Completely blocked her from his memory and made a world where she didn't exist so that Albus’s love for her didn't break the illusion and snap him out of the dream.
Am I using my own lore point of "love transcends all" to justify this? A little bit, yes. But I fully believe that if Kravitas had given Albus that storybook ending where he gets the girl and has the white picket fence life, he would eventually realize something wasn't right. He would eventually realize that this wasn't Faith, that something was missing. There's something inherently real about being in love with someone that you can't just replicate, especially with someone in Albus’s situation. And in a world with untraumatized Albus, there would be something crucial missing from his relationship with Faith that Kravitas would have no way to replace.
So what do you do with something you can't fix that will eventually break down your entire operation?
You get rid of it.
So in order to preserve Albus’s dreamscape for as long as possible, Kravitas got rid of Faith. Let Albus have his name, his brother, his career as a paladin, and never tell him that his heart is far beyond the clouds with a woman he forgot exists.
Obviously it didn't work cause Faith is so headstrong she could crack diamonds and wasn't gonna let some silly thing like a dimensional barrier keep her out but an attempt was made and I respect it.
Do I also believe Kravitas could've gone the complete other end of the spectrum and given Albus a harem so he wouldn't need Faith? Yes. Do I think it would've worked any better? Maybe. Possibly. Though I think Albus’s need to attach his self-worth to his sex drive comes from that trauma I mentioned earlier so in a world where that doesn't happen, maybe not. Who knows. I never claimed to be good at this.
Also can we talk about Faith entering that dream world? Just dropped out of the sky and faceplanted into the dirt, I'm shocked she didn't break anything. Albus finds some random lady face down in the grass probably looking like she was contemplating every decision she's ever made in her life and was just like "?? You good?"
100/10, no notes, absolutely flawless.

Happy Cake Day — Simon "Ghost" Riley x Reader
contents: mutual pining, idiots in love, fluff.
''C'mon, open the door, Simon.'' Your knuckles connect to his door again, this time with more insistence than before.
''Dude, I can hear you breathing. Open up.'' Your arms are getting tired from holding the cake, relief filling your soul as he finally opens his door halfway before you slam your shoulder against it, successfully pushing him out of the way as you break into his quarters.
''What are you on about?'' He asks with a quiet scoff, closing the door behind him as he rubs his shoulder, the force of the door being slammed against him causing a little more pain than he'd like to admit.
''I made you a cake. And before you start— I know your birthday is redacted on your file. Broke into the old man's office to find it.'' He raises an eyebrow at this, a small smile tugging on his lips. He knows you're not lying— you're definitely the type to break into Price's office to access his file.
''I don't need a—'' You interrupt him by putting your frosting-stained finger against his lips, effectively shutting him up for now.
''Shh. Look, I drew the team.'' You point to the cake on his desk and he leans closer, looking down at the cake and biting his lip to resist the urge to burst out laughing. He takes a deep breath, collecting himself before speaking.
''This one looks like a fuckin' nonce.'' He points to the drawing of Gaz you made with frosting... if you could even call it a drawing.
''Soap looks like a deformed carrot.'' He bites his lip again to resist the urge to laugh, brown eyes focused on the cake, the only indicator that it's Soap is the messy mohawk.
''Why are our drawings holding hands?'' He inquires in a teasing tone, knowing exactly why.
''No reason.'' You retort, grinning up at him. The drawings are ugly on purpose— that's what you tell yourself to preserve some pride.
''Is that— is that the old man?'' He's barely holding it together, each drawing more comical than the other. The Price drawing is giant, holding all of the stick figures in his massive arms, his bucket hat almost comically big compared to his head.
''Mhm.'' You confirm, bursting out laughing the moment you see him try his best to hold in his laugh, not wanting to hurt or offend you in any way despite having ripped your frosting drawings a new one.
''Looks nice.'' He compliments, trying to be nice. Truth to be told, it's not a bad cake, it's just... the drawings that give it... personality. His comment earns him a finger full of frosting to the nose, a groan leaving his lips.

୨୧‬┊a/n: first chapter woohooo !!! second chapter will finally be coming out on [redacted] <3
‪MAIN POST | part i. > part ii. > part iii.
Tumblr media
Tugging at the sleeves of your jacket further down your hands, you let out an exhale, nerves set ablaze. The typical cool spring air was colder than usual this particular night out, sun having already set and moon shining up into the dark, starry sky.
Fiddling with the hem of your mini skirt, you gazed up, doe eyes glinting heatedly up at the man you've harbored adoration towards.
You were finally gonna confess.
"I want you."
The simple words that held so much weight filled the space between you both.
A sigh in response. Oh no. You already knew what was coming, but you hoped to any deity or god from above that it wouldn't turn out this way.
"Kid, you're way too young for me." The smoke blowing past his lips wafted through the stiff air, his scar pulling at the corner of his mouth in dismay. "If you were older maybe I'd consider it. Wouldn't bet on it though, since you're such a pain in the ass to deal with."
You let his words hang momentarily, trying to come up with a sufficient rebuttal. You knew he was only playing when he said you were a pain to deal with but it still stung your heart to hear it coming from him. But you weren't gonna give up that easily. You've had a crush on this man ever since he moved into the neighborhood years ago!
What started out as innocent puppy love slowly built its way into this desire, stemmed deep at the heart the older you got. You'd watch as he invited women into his home late into the hours of the night, clinging onto him like a leech in a body of lakewater. God, how you wish it was you he'd have brought into his home on those late nights. Lustfully gazing down at you with promises of this being the best you'll ever have, one you'd be thinking back on until the day you die.
He knew exactly just how much you craved for his touch. It wasn't hard to see that he felt the same, you could see it in the way he'd glance in your direction whenever you purposely wore something revealing, hoping to catch his eye. He told you that you shouldn't wear things like that at your age around men, that they were dangerous, intentions impure. As if he wasn't one of those men he was warning you about. But despite it all, he always looked the other way. Kept a boundary of barbed wire up, no way of climbing through. Frankly, it was annoying.
You hate when people play hard to get.
"So...you mean once I'm 18, you'll take up my offer?" If he couldn't get with you because you were 'too young' then surely he'd concede if you were legally an adult...right?
"Not exactly what I said, but sure," Taking one last final drag of his cigar, he stomped it out onto the pavement, sharp eyes gazing at you discerningly one last time before turning the other way.
"Whatever gets you off my case."
That was the last time you spoke with Toji and almost 2 years have gone by since then. The rejection after the confession hurt no doubt, but the avoidance of Toji towards you afterwards, hurt like salt to a fresh wound.
You rarely saw him after that, suddenly out for weeks to months at a time for work. Sometimes he'd come by when he was free and have idle chats with your parents any time they saw him down the neighborhood. Not bothering to spare a polite greeting or glance in your direction whenever you were present. What used to be a strong bond between family friend and their doting daughter, having met him at an early age, quickly turned awkward and tense, distance overtaking whatever there once was.
You regret talking to him that night every single day.
Unfortunately, you couldn't bring back the past and fix your fuck up. On the other hand, the days of being immature and bratty were long gone. Having been replaced by someone more mature and less dense.
Living off pre-packaged noodles and staying up till 6 am finishing up assignments for your university classes due the next hour, does that to a person you suppose.
Now with winter break finally having rolled around the corner, you were able to get that good night's sleep your exhausted ass had been craving for. And the home cooked meals your mother had waiting for you was certainly appreciated as well.
Lugging your bags up the front steps to your parents' quaint home, you took a quick look at the classic 'welcome home' mat under your feet that you were sure still hid a key underneath. Lifting the corner of the mat your suspicions were confirmed.
You'd think they'd realize how unsafe this could be one of these days.
Before you could place the key through the silver lock, you were instead met with the distinct sound of hard, oak wood doors being unlocked and swung open.
"Baby, you're finally home! Get in quickly, come on now." Your mother hastily ushered you in, calling over your father to help carry your bags further inside the warmth of your home. The key you held was quickly dropped on the small table near the entrance, and the door kicked shut. The signature smell of a vanilla sugar cookie candle being burnt filled your nostrils, the rest wafting through the air. Anyone would think your family baked with the way they always seem to choose that particular scent regardless of season or weather. Further glancing around, you watched your family's pet cat prance towards you, its furry face wide eyed and complaining to be held. You swear he acted like a dog sometimes.
Guess some things never change.
You just hoped that would've stayed true for a certain someone.
Before you had any more time to dwell on it, you were taken out of your thoughts by the mention of the name you had barely begun to ponder over.
'Speak of the devil', you sighed.
Walking over to the living area, you followed your father picking up your cat on the way, butting in, "Hm? what was that?"
"You remember Toji right?" Nodding your head, your father continued. "We invited him over for dinner tonight."
You paused in your step. "What? Why?" The confusion in your voice was surely noticed. You couldn't exactly say you were unhappy, hell you felt giddy at just the mention of his name, but you were still hung up on the past and weren't ready to face the man that blew off your poor naive, little heart. If you saw his handsome face in person again that's been embarrassingly haunting your dazed mind whenever you're busy writhing and whining atop your soft, cozy sheets—at that dinner table, you might just take the 2 hour car ride back to campus dorms.
You were just a pussy like that. One that couldn't face the culprit of those lingering feelings that had never ceased to falter throughout the years, dead in the eye.
The two quietly glanced at each other at your sudden change in demeanor, eyebrows raised. Before he could continue your mom piped up first, "What do you mean by 'why'? You haven't seen each other in so long. He misses you and I'm sure you two would like to catch up."
"Misses you" You swear your heart might've actually stopped beating. In what world would Toji Fushiguro have missed their friends young daughter after being told straight to their face that they wanted him to fuck her.
"He..misses me?" It sounded a little unbelievable saying it outloud.
"Mhm, after you left for University he asked about you a couple times, wondering when you'd be back to visit," Turning around to walk into the kitchen to get started on dinner, she smiled over her shoulder at you once more, "You must've really left an impression on him."
Nervously laughing you settled your cat down, watching him stride over to sip some water from his bowl.
"Yeah..quite some impression alright."
- - - - - - - - - - ୨♡୧ - - - - - - - - - -
Okay. Okay it's fine. Yeah you haven't seen him in years but it's fine! He's just coming over for dinner. You'll greet him with a friendly smile, he'll ask how you've been- or shit, maybe he won't. Maybe he'll just ignore you again like he's already done. Toji mentioning to your parents that he misses you was probably just a misunderstanding and he meant to say the weather has been misty- yeah. Totally plausible.
"What the hell am I doing.." Taking a once-over to look yourself in the mirror, you just finished applying the finishing touches to your makeup, wiping off any excess gloss at the corner of your lips with a q-tip for a sharp finish. Was the gloss necessary given the fact that it was going to be smudged off during dinner anyway?
The answer was yes. Yes It was.
Just because you were having a small dinner that was probably gonna be awkward as hell with a man you've been wanting- didn't want to see, shouldn't mean you couldn't at least look cute.
A sudden faint sound of muffled talking took you out your inner monologue. Putting away your array of makeup displayed on the varnished wood countertop of your vanity, you walked over to the door pressing an ear against it trying to discern what was being said.
'Hm sounds like there's someone else down there..' quietly poking a head out into the hallway you just barely made out a deep yet familiar voice before quickly being startled by your mother calling out your name.
"Hon, come down and greet Toji!"
Fuck. "C–Coming!" straightening up, you calmed your blazing nerves, mentally preparing yourself for the onslaught of awkward tension that your parents luckily knew nothing of. Bless their complete oblivion.
Walking out into the hallway and down the stairs your eyes immediately locked onto Tojis, gaze shyly looking away and focusing onto nothing in particular. You were better off staring at something near him than at him directly.
Approaching towards where they stood, you tried your best to look as confident as possible. You're a woman now. Not some doe. At least that's what you feel like telling yourself at this moment, as you pick at your nails. Standing straighter, you stood next to your parents, watching as they finished up their talk.
You haven't had a proper conversation with Toji since, well...that night. Not counting the usual greetings you had exchanged with him in the past when you saw each other after. If you could even call it that. If a glance of bare acknowledgement was considered a greeting, then sure. Yet here you were right in front of him, determined to set things right. You had to confront him, it was the only way you'd be able to heal the wound of the past and maybe, even let go.
But first, you'll have to actually talk to him.
Deciding to finally look up at Toji, you were able to make out his features more clearly. He hadn't changed much since you last saw him, still very much tall, and his ever so brooding presence never waned. His jaw was somehow even more defined than before, and he was still rocking the same haircut as he always did.
If it ain't broke, don't fix it I guess.
Overall, he looked good. Better. The best. As he most likely always will be in your eyes.
And you're so lost in your own thoughts that you don't even notice Toji looking down at you in the corner of his eye, trying to hold back a smirk that's beginning to creep up. Silly you, ogling him so openly in front of your own parents. Not like they bothered to ever notice though.
Hearing the three of them laugh about something pulled you away from your stupor, and your attention was immediately latched onto Toji who was the first to speak.
Hopefully he didn't notice you being a creep.
"It's been a while, huh? You still remember me?" You know he's only teasing by asking if you still "remembered" him. The old you would've sassed him up for asking something silly like that, but you don't know if its a good idea to get ahead of yourself and start pulling on his leg this early on.
So you opt for the safest response.
With a polite smile on your lips, you shrugged your shoulders, "Of course. It hasn't been that long."
Toji stared at you for a moment. Shit. Did he not like that answer..?
Then you felt something warm come into contact with the top of your head; it was Toji's hand. Toji was petting you. Or more like ruffling your hair—same difference.
"You barely changed."
You exhaled a breath you didn't even know you were holding. A moment longer in silence and you don't think you'd be able to hold back the urge to run back up those stairs, slam the door shut behind you, and scream into your pillow.
Why were you so nervous!? You're never nervous when it comes to Toji.
'What's up with me??''
Regardless, you felt yourself being left annoyed at his comment. Disappointed that he probably still saw you as some kid despite not certainly looking or being one at all for that matter.
Too bad you didn't realize he meant it in a different way.
Even if you tried to hide it, Toji could still make out the way you held your hands behind your back, most likely fidgeting with your nails. Seems you've changed, the thought amusing him. The old you he knew would've pounced on him by now, batting your lashes, staring up starry eyed thinking you were being discreet about it.
Nothing gets past him, especially not when you make it so obvious. One thing that hasn't changed though, are the clothes you seemed to purposely wear around him, and him only.
The moment he saw you walk down those stairs, he knew you had him wrapped around your finger all over again. The too short skirt and see-through slip on you adorned leaving almost nothing to the imagination, if not for the cream colored cardigan you wore hiding the slivers of skin, leaving him wanting more of what was underneath.
'What a damn tease..' But Tojis eyes averted by the time your parents noticed your descend towards them. He didn't exactly want them seeing him ogle their daughter so openly.
Before any one of you could say anything more, your mother cut the greetings short. "Great, now that we're all finished reuniting again, let's start eating before the food gets cold."
Walking a little ways behind you, Toji catched the way your hips swayed as you walked. Whether you were doing it intentionally or not, he couldn't say for sure.
But one thing he was sure about, is that you were going to give him one hell of a hard time.
- - - - - - - - - - ୨♡୧ - - - - - - - - - -
The rest of dinner went by quickly. Once you were all seated, your parents and Toji had no problem talking with each other. They were busy discussing something, but your mind was too occupied to actually listen in on what they were saying. Too busy playing around with the food on your plate as your mind ran aimlessly, and foot twitching anxiously.
The night could've been worse. Really, it could've. Sure you haven't made any progress yet, but you'll get there! Overall, nothing particular happened. Except for one thing.
Toji couldn't stop looking at you.
- - - - - - - - - - ୨♡୧ - - - - - - - - - -
Before you knew it, dinner had come to an end. Toji had already taken his leave and bid you all a 'thanks for the meal' and a goodbye. Finally. Now you can slip away to your room, wipe off your makeup, and lay awake in your bed as you regret everything you could've said and done tonight but didn't without anyone noticing–
"Where do you think you're going?" There stood your mom, looking at you expectantly. Were you missing something?
"To my room, why?"
"Didn't you hear at dinner?"
'Was I supposed to hear something at dinner?'
"No, hear what exactly?"
"Tomorrow, you're going out to buy some decorations for a party we're having."
A beat of silence. Your eyebrows were furrowed in confusion as you wondered why the hell you would be having a party.
"Mom… I appreciate that you want to host a welcome back party for me, but there's really no need to." It's sweet that they missed you this much, but you weren't one for parties that were centered around you.
She laughed. "No, no, not a party for you. I know you don't like that kinda stuff,"
Oh. Nevermind then.
"Our annual winter get together. We do it every year with the rest of the neighborhood and we're the ones hosting this time. Have all those cup noodles gotten to your head and you suddenly forgot?" She shook her head in disappointment.
Low blow, mom.
"I didn't forget! I just...didn't know you'd be the ones doing it this year."
"If you were actually paying attention at dinner then you'd have heard."
"Sorry. So, tomorrow you want me to go out and buy decor right? Cool, I'll go after lunch."
Thinking that was the end of that, you began to trudge your way towards the staircase. Already almost at the top when your mother called out to you once more.
"Oh! and Toji's accompanying you."
Yup, definitely going to scream into your pillow tonight.

read: chapter five | masterlist
Tumblr media
“God I fuckin’ love you.” 
Your words echo in Carmy’s head all shift, and he doesn’t know why he hasn’t said it back yet. 
The restaurant has been slow for lunch, and in every single moment he’s had to think about it, the words felt like they were on the tip of his tongue:
I love you. 
I love you too. 
I love you and I’ve never felt this way about anyone before. 
But what was he supposed to do? Tell you in the middle of your mise en place? Follow you into the walk-in and tell you there? He almost regrets not just saying it back right then and there – the minute he realized that you and Richie were both pulling a prank on him. Carmy decides that telling you here, at the restaurant just won’t do – just wouldn’t be romantic enough – and he knows you deserve more than that. 
As you finish up your prep for dinner service, you eye Carmy carefully. He looks totally wrapped up in thought, and you can’t imagine what he must be thinking this hard about. You’re here. You can’t believe you’re here. And you could care less about anything else right now.
“How ya doin?” you ask him, pulling him from his thoughts. 
He doesn’t know if you can see it on his face – that he’s thinking way too hard about this. 
“Uh, I’m-. Just thinkin’ about strategy… for dinner service,” he lies, trying his best to throw you off his trail. 
“Okay,” you reply, unconvinced. 
But it’s clear that he’s not going to give you much more than that.  
“You should go home,” he blurts out. His response takes you by surprise, and as soon as he realizes it sounds like he doesn’t want you here, his face softens, quick to course correct. 
“I just mean-, you must be tired. From the drive. As much as I appreciate the help…” he trails off. “It’s been slow today anyways. You should take my key and head home. If you want. Get some rest.”
Home. 
You smile in response at the sound of it, knowing that, after today, Chicago is your home. 
“You sure?” you ask him. 
“Yeah,” he insists. “If it stays this slow, I may even be able to get home early.”
You’re sure you have the silliest grin on your face as you hear the word again. 
Because this is your home now. 
Because Carmy is your home now too. 
“Well, if you insist,” you say with a shrug. 
“I do,” he says back, a seriousness in his voice. 
“Okay,” you giggle in response, agreeing to his demand. 
Carmy’s always trying to take care of you. It’s one of the things you love the most about him. Whether he’s asking you if he can make you something or asking to walk you home, you’ve always known that this is how he shows his love. 
You and Carmy both wash your hands, and he follows you towards the locker area, watching you hang up your apron in the locker that will now be yours. He busies himself with finding his apartment keys while you gather your things. 
“I kinda missed this place,” you say, even though you’ve only been gone three weeks. 
“Yeah?” he asks, a light in his eyes as he watches you. 
It feels surreal: seeing you here, knowing that you’ll be at his place when he gets back, that he gets to keep you. 
“Yeah. And maybe even some of the people too,” you smirk, cheekily. 
Carmy blushes, taking a few steps towards you with his keys in hand. 
“Need the address?” he asks. 
“I remember how to get back there,” you reassure him, playfully. 
It hadn’t been that long since you walked home with Carmy the night that changed it all: the night he’d made you his carbonara, the night that feelings were revealed, the night you made love. You’d followed him back to his apartment two nights in a row after that, letting yourself surrender to this thing between you that you’d both spent over two years fighting. And you’d let him take you to bed each night, getting lost in the way he smelled, the way he tasted, the way his skin felt against yours. 
You’re still in shock over how much has changed in your life in the last month alone.
It felt like heaven. 
It feels like heaven. 
And you wonder what took you both so fucking long.
At the same time, you know it happened exactly when it was supposed to happen – that anything before this wouldn’t have worked. 
As Carmy hands you his keys, you give him a goodbye kiss, the tension between the two of you palpable. It’s the kind of ‘I can’t wait to get you alone’ tension and you can’t wait till he gets off his shift – your thoughts filled with all the things you want to do with him when you finally do. 
It takes a while to leave the restaurant – everyone wanting to get in their hello or goodbye in – before you’re on your way home to Carmy’s apartment. On the drive there, you laugh to yourself about how the staff of The Bear have been betting on how long it’d take for you to come back. It fills you with a sense of warmth, confirming that this was exactly the move you needed to make. Since it’s close by, and you still have your stupid fucking U-HAUL, it doesn’t take long to get back to Carmy’s apartment. You make a mental note to find a good storage container to rent out so you don’t have to lug this thing around while you look for a place. 
By the time you get into his apartment, suitcase in hand, it’s clear to you that Carmy wasn’t expecting you. His home is messier than you remember it being when you left three weeks ago, but it’s not so intolerable that it’s maddening. 
You put something on the TV in the background, while you unwind, taking a shower then tidying up a little bit around the apartment. You let yourself enjoy the simplest of pleasures: your favorite pair of sweatpants that you can’t believe he’s kept, and a comfy bralette you’ve packed at the top of your suitcase. 
But it all starts to hit you as you start slowing down: after spending the night in Cleveland, you’d driven all morning to Chicago, jumped in on the line for dinner prep. You’ve barely had a moment to slow down and holy shit, are you exhausted. It doesn’t take more than a few episodes of Pasta Grannies for you to pass out on the couch. Carmy’s YouTube playback is set to autoplay, and as your eyelids become progressively heavier, you promise yourself you’re just going to close your eyes for a few moments… 
“Hi sweetheart,” you hear a voice say, causing you to slowly blink your eyes open. 
“Carm?” you mumble, only half awake. “Is it you? You’re really here?”
“Yeah, it’s me. Did I wake you?” he whispers, letting out a small laugh. 
You giggle as Carmy comes into your line of sight. He’s perched on the edge of the couch as you reach for one of his hands so that you can touch him. 
“Yeah, but I’m glad you did. What time is it?” you ask, becoming more and more awake by the minute. 
“Ten-thirty. Business picked up a ton for dinner.”
“Damn.”
“So much for getting off early.” 
You hum in response, sitting up momentarily to grab his hands, pulling him towards. Carmy smiles, laying his body over yours, before leaning in for the softest, gentlest kiss. 
“Hi,” you whisper.
“Hi,” he smiles back at you, the words just on the tip of his tongue. 
I love you too.
You pull him back in for another kiss, this time deepening it. You laugh again, as Carmy breaks the kiss, an inquisitive look plastered to his face. 
“What?” he questions. 
“Nothing. You smell like hot giardiniera,” you giggle as your lips twist into a smile against his. 
He laughs, “Yeah?’
“Uh huh,” you say. 
“I’ll shower,” he suggests, playfully. 
“No, no it’s okay. I’m kinda into it,” you reply, earning another chuckle from him. 
“It’s okay,” Carmy replies, shaking his head. He places a peck on your lips before sitting up properly, earning a groan from you as he pulls away. “I’m gonna hop in the shower. Maybe we can move this to uh… my bedroom?”
“Are you putting the moves on me, Berzatto?” you tease him, shooting him a playful look.
“No! I just meant-, since I know you must be tired-,” he stammers, a blush running across your cheeks. 
You shake your head, sitting up to reassure him with another kiss. 
“I’m kidding,” you say with a chuckle. “And I’m also starving. 
“Yeah?” he sounds. 
“How about this? Why don’t you jump in the shower and I’ll order us a pizza. I’m sure we can find something to do while we wait for it to get here,” you say suggestively. 
Oh. 
“Sounds great,” he agrees with a quick raise of his eyebrows. 
You watch as Carmy disappears into the bathroom, the sound of running water filling your ears, you scroll around a little for a good pizza spot nearby. You settle on something New York style out of habit, ordering a few things for delivery. 
By the time Carmy gets out of the shower, you’ve curled up with yourself in his bed, scrolling around on your favorite social media app. You let out a whistle as soon as Carmy enters the room with only a towel tied around his waist. You can tell he’s tried his best to dry his hair, running the towel through his perfect curls a few times. You’ve got all this pent up sexual energy, and seeing Carmy like this, all hot, nearly-naked, and wet is really doing it for you. 
Hell, he could be in a full hazmat suit and the man would do it for you. 
You watch as he rummages through his dresser, searching for a t-shirt and a pair of briefs, but there’s no fucking way you’re letting him get dressed. You toss your phone to the side, standing up from where you are on the bed.
As you approach, you snake your arms around his waist, stopping him in his tracks. He cannot believe this is real: that you’re here, in his bed, in the sweatpants that he knows you love. That you’re here to stay. That you’re here and you’re his. 
“Hey,” he says, his lips twisting into a smile as you begin to leave soft kisses across the back of his shoulders. 
“Hey, yourself,” you reply, nipping at the skin you’ve just kissed. 
Carmy hisses at the feel of your teeth, letting out a laugh that seems to rumble in his throat. 
“Can I help you with something?” he teases you. 
He feels your lips curl into a smile against his skin, smirking in response. 
I fucking love you too. 
But before he can say anything, your hands are pushing his towel down past his hips, desperately envious of the way the material clings to him. 
“Mhm,” you hum. “I think you know.”
He lets the towel fall to the floor, and Carmy groans as you wrap your hand around his hard on, hissing as he feels you pump him a few times. 
“Seems like you’ve been thinkin the same thing,” you say again, feeling how hard he already is. 
He bites into his lower lip, his eyes rolling towards the back of his head as he enjoys the way you touch him. 
“Been thinkin’ about this all day, sweetheart.”
“Well…” you trail off. “I’d love to hear more about what’s been on your mind.”
“Yeah?” he croaks out, the pleasure you’re bringing him causing him to short circuit. 
“Yes,” you sigh out, wound up with desire. 
Finally, Carmy turns around, grabbing the back of your head and pulling you in for a passionate, lust-filled kiss. His lips are on yours like he’s been starving, as if nothing would satiate him the way tasting you will. You open your mouth, deepening the kiss, as you feel his tongue slide against yours. Carmy begins backing you up towards the bed, guiding you down to his mattress. 
“Had this on my mind since you left Chicago,” he mumbles, his pupils wide, fully blown out in lust. 
“Me too,” you manage to get out. 
He leans in once more, pressing his lips to yours once more. You drag your teeth against his bottom lip, before he breaks the kiss, his mouth and hands searching for real estate lower. Carmy leaves hot, open mouthed kisses along your breasts, your torso, and you’re practically pulling off your bralette like it’s burning your skin. 
“Been thinkin’ about this. You…” he admits, his voice hoarse. 
You gasp in pleasure as Carmy drags the sweatpants, along with your panties, down over your hips, tossing them who knows where behind him. 
“... tasting you.” 
You moan as he positions himself between your legs, kneeling on the floor, his chest pressed to the bed. Your legs quake with anticipation as you feel his hot breath fan over your core. Every moment he spends making you wait is killing you. 
“Carmy, please,” you beg, as he begins leaving soft kisses along your inner thighs. You can tell he’s making himself wait too, building the anticipation so that when he lets himself have you… 
“Carmen!” you moan. 
He practically groans against you as he uses the tip of his tongue to trace your clit.
“Fuck, I missed this,” he muses, before burying himself between your thighs again. 
His mouth is on you, tracing little shapes with his tongue, licking up and down your progressively wet core, while his hands keep your legs spread wide. 
All for him. 
He continues to eat you out, completely enraptured with the way you taste, the way your moans and gasps sound, the way you say his name, calling out for him and only him. As he slips a finger inside of you, you bury your hands in his hair, your hips thrusting up into his hand and against his mouth. 
“Holy fuck, Carmy,” you gasp, your mind completely taken over with the pleasure he’s giving you. 
He can tell that you’re close, adding another finger, taking note that you seem to like it even more. It’s as if he’s memorized every single thing you loved, everything that seemed to make you tick, and applied it to this time. 
“Carmy, I’m gonna-,” you cry out, your legs shaking as he brings you over the edge. 
You’re gasping, writhing against the bed, your legs still pushed wide by tatted hands as you begin to come down. You look down, tugging Carmy’s hair to bring him back up to you. When he finally looks back up at you, he’s grinning, completely satisfied with the pleasure he’s brought you. He makes his way back up, laying his very naked body over top of yours, leaning in for another kiss. 
You can taste yourself on his lips, and he doesn’t know if it’s possible to get harder than he is. 
“That’s what you were thinking about?” you whispered against his lips, spreading your legs to make room for him. You can feel his hard, aching cock against your wet center, and if you think you’ll die if he’s not inside of you as soon as possible. 
“All day.” 
He kisses you, nipping at your top lip momentarily, before continuing with:
“Haven’t stopped thinkin’ about it, actually.” 
That and something else. 
Three words he can’t seem to get out. 
Even though they’re begging to be said. 
You reach down, wrapping a hand around him, sliding his thick tip against you so that he can feel how wet and needy you are for him. 
“I can think of a few other things I want,” you beg him, feeling him shudder against you as you drag the tip of his cock over you again and again. 
“And what’s that?” Carmy asks you cheekily. 
Instead of answering, you guide him into you, earning a gasp from the both of you as he splits you open. Carmy takes his time pushing into you, making sure to pause when he’s fully seated inside of you. 
Your eyes are locked with his, allowing yourself to get totally lost inside of the pools of blue. You’re sighing out in pleasure, squeezing around him, your lips so fucking close to touching it’s near-painful. Carmy begins to slide out of you at a dangerously slow pace, thrusting into you, deeper each time. You’re pulling him down to you, and it’s as if you can’t get enough – enough of his mouth on yours, enough of him to hold onto – even though you have all of him. 
You’d let him consume all of you if he wanted to, you think to yourself, as he swallows your moans in his mouth.
It’s tangled legs, and tangled tongues, and whispered pleas. 
“God, you feel so good,” he grunts, burying his head in your neck as he speeds up. You can tell the both of you are close – that all the pent up sexual energy means that neither of you will last long. 
But you don’t care. 
You’ve got all the time in the world now. 
“Carmy,” you whine, desperate for him to let you cum.
You know you have his attention, as he raises his head, locking eyes with you again. 
“I want you to fuck me from behind,” you whisper, desperately. 
“Fuck. That’s so hot,” he groans, his eyes wide.
Unwillingly, he peels his body off of yours, letting you sit up straight. He thinks he may have died and gone to heaven as he watches you turn around, kneeling on all fours over his bed. His hands immediately go to your ass, dragging calloused palms over the curve of it as he kneels behind you. 
“Fuck, that’s so hot,” he gasps, guiding himself back into you. 
He thinks the sight alone may send him to an early grave as you bow your back, your ass still high as you press your chest against the bed. 
“Your ass is fucking incredible,” Carmy says, pulling out slowly, before thrusting back into you with a force that makes you cry out. 
“Carmen,” you whimper, your legs shaking beneath you. 
This feels too good. 
“Hmm?” he asks, his hands smoothing over your low back, following the way your back seems to arch in pleasure. 
“Fuck me. Please.” 
He knows he won’t last much longer. His hands hold onto your hips, the pads of his fingers pressing into your skin as he begins to speed up. It feels unreal, incredible, being this deep inside of you. And he gets to watch: watch the way you arch your back, watch your body respond to every single thrust, watch you grasp at the sheets and pillows, searching for something to hold onto. 
“I don’t think I’m gonna last long, baby,” he stutters out, his thrusts becoming more erratic as you beg him to keep going. 
“Please, Carmen. That feels so goddamn good,” you plead with him, face down into his sheets. 
“Shit. Fuck,” he howls, his voice booming against all corners of the room. 
Carmy places the gentlest hand against your low back, as if it to ask you to lay down, laying his body over yours from behind. He pauses, because it just feels too damn good, and he wants to revel in this moment before this ends. Ever so slowly, he begins to drag his cock in and out of you at the most torturously slow pace. His mouth leaves small kisses against your shoulders, nipping at your soft skin as he continues to make love to you. 
“Faster, Carmy. Please. I’m gonna cum,” you pant. 
You’re not sure just how much more patient you can get here. You feel him begin to speed up, and you’re moaning into his mattress against, begging for him to make you cum. He can feel you squeezing around him, and the sight of himself fucking into you really isn’t helping either. 
“Fuck,” he manages to get out, his hips beginning to stutter against your ass. 
“Yes. Whatever you want. I’ll give you whatever you want,” he repeats, earning the most blissful ‘Carmy’ from your lips he’s ever heard. 
“Baby, I’m so close,” you whine. 
“Yes, me too. Yes. Fuck, I love you,” he calls out, shutting his eyes as he cums. 
He can feel you shuddering around him, as he fucks you through your orgasm too, completely unaware of the words that have flown out of his mouth. 
You’re both panting, breathless from what you’ve just done, as you begin to come down. 
“Holy shit,” he finally says, leaning his forehead against the back of your shoulder. 
“You can say that again,” you chuckle, trying to catch your breath. 
“Can we do this tomorrow? And the day after that?” you ask, playfully, turning your head to kiss him. “And the day after that?”
Carmy smiles, “Absolutely.”
It doesn’t take long for the two of you to get cleaned up and back into comfy clothes. Carmy knows there’s no point in fighting you for your favorite pair of his sweatpants as he picks out another pair, remaining shirtless for your viewing pleasure. The pizza arrives shortly after, and you find yourself in bed, with the man you’ve loved for so long, getting a much-needed refuel break. 
“You know I hate eating in bed,” Carmy points out, watching you get crumbs all over his sheets. 
“Yeah, well I’m getting my own place so… that’s a future problem for you and me,” you answer, without a single care in the world. 
“For when we move in together?” he asks, raising an eyebrow. 
It’s almost as if he’s testing the waters – seeing if that’s something that’s still on your mind. 
“Right,” you confirm, confidently. 
But you’re in. 
You’re all in. 
It seems like you’ve passed whatever test he’s given you as the corners of his lips curl into the softest smile. 
“You know… you live in Chicago now,” he teases, in reference to your choice of pizza. 
You scoff in response, throwing in a playful eye roll for dramatic effect. 
“Oh fuck you.” 
He laughs. 
You eat quietly, enjoying your first night in Chicago as a resident. You watch as Carmy’s face changes, as if he’s trying to find the right words to say what’s on his mind. Instead of asking, you wait, knowing that he’ll bring it up when he finds them. 
“Hey uh…” he starts, hesitantly. “I just want you to know… that I… I meant what I said earlier.”
The more serious tone he uses piques your curiosity as you stare back at him blankly, unsure of what he's referring to.
“What do you mean?” you ask back.
Carmy takes another beat, pausing as he musters up the courage to clarify with:
“That I love you. I didn’t want you to think I just said it because… well you know.”
Because you were naked.
Because he got caught up in the moment.
Because he was inside of you.
He licks his lips, before opening his mouth to say it again: 
“I love you.”
As soon as the words leave his lips, his eyes are on you, watching your face for any kind of reaction.
But you’re beaming as you hear them and it all begins to make sense. It was something you’d said earlier, but the fact that he hadn’t said it back hadn’t been on your mind. Is this what he’d been thinking about all day? You just figured he'd say it back when he was ready.
You shake your head, a grin plastered to your face as you reply,
“I know, silly. I love you too.”
Fin.

More Highlights From the SOLDIER Group Chat
• Every time someone makes a grammatical mistake and butchers the English language, Genesis sends a copy of the Rosetta stone.
• Kunsel changing the group chat name to The Bad Bitch Brigade™
• Angeal's phone and microphone are broken as hell, but he refused to buy a new phone while his still works, so all of his audio messages make him sound like a chipmunk.
• Roche accidentally sent his "most to least attractive" list to the group chat. Genesis was at the very bottom. Genesis didn't shut up for six hours.
• Every time Sephiroth is questioned about something uncomfortable he responds with a model-esque selfie.
Lazard: Sephiroth did you break the training room again???
Sephiroth: *sends a picture perfect selfie of himself basking in the sunlight*
• Zack using the group chat as his personal journal until Lazard told him to stop because "No one wants to hear about the sweet potato shaped like a penis you had for lunch, Zackary, nor do we want to hear about the life advice the drunkard in sector 7 keeps giving you"
• On a similar note, Genesis uses the group chat as his personal to-do list. Lazard also had him stop after the items started getting more and more concerning. The last straw was:
1) Buy fireworks
2) Buy enough duct tape to hold a grown man
3) Summon Sephiroth to the rooftop at midnight
• Director Lazard thought the "😂" emoji meant a sad crying face, so he sent "I regret to inform you all that Mrs. Helen Thompson from the finance office has passed away 😂 💀"
• The day Genesis changed the group chat name to "LOVELESS study club" and began sending his LOVELESS analysis. Everyone left the group chat immediately. Including Lazard.
• The morning everyone hurried to the group chat to see why there were 5K messages. It turns out Kunsel and Zack were RP-ing.
• Sephiroth not knowing that "I'm dying" means the person is laughing. He twice sent paramedics to Genesis's office.
• Angeal, the admin, getting drunk and changing everyone's screen names to something ridiculous.
Sephiroth, Genesis and Zack became Mommy Issues, Used To Eat Chalk When We Were Six, and Hedgehog On Crack.
• Upon figuring out how to change the group chat name, Sephiroth changed it to The Mystery Penis™ Is [Redacted] and then turned his phone off.
• Zack sending a joke picture of him and Kunsel holding hands. Kunsel has hairy fingers so Angeal immediately responds with "WHAT DID YOU DO TO AERITH?"
• Sephiroth learns he doesn't need to respond to every messages and can instead use the reaction feature. This leads to gems such as:
Sephiroth reacted to - Genesis: SEPHIROTH, YOU LIMP DICK, DID YOU TELL LAZARD THAT I STOLE THE POPCORN MACHINE IN THE BREAK ROOM???: 👍
• Angeal changing the group chat name to "Dr. Phil audition tapes"
• Roche selling a used hair dryer and advertising it on the group chat as "USED HAIR, GOOD CONDITION, $20 GIL FREE SHIPPING
• That of course is followed by a mass advertisment spam where everyone is trying to sell their used products. Genesis in particular gets removed from the group chat for "ASSORTED TOYS, NEVER USED, SOLD TO ADULTS ONLY, $ 50 GIL A PIECE + AUTOGRAPH
• Genesis being removed allows Zack to advertise "BOX OF RANDOM SHIT I STOLE FROM GENESIS'S APARTMENT"
• Cloud, an infantryman who's secretly been a part of the group this whole time, finally outs himself the day Reno is discovered to be hiding in the group chat undercover.
• He sent this image:

I feel like if you have any media literacy at all you should know Jancy is very likely endgame.
You can read my posts and see I'm not even a hardcore Jancy or anything I lean more Jargyle. It's just like........
1. The writers like their original pairings from s1 a lot. Mike-El/Will(Im pro Byler, yes Will isn't present in s1 but Mike spends like 90% of the season moaning and talking about him- for the sake of this post El/Will are interchangeable), Jonathan-Nancy, Joyce-Hopper and then they also like Max-Lucas. All 4 of these couples have been presented as romantic since the pitch bible and from their first interactions.
2. S4 was all about division and how the characters lose when divided. They really focused on the absence of Jancy in s4. Hence they are building to an s5 with a lot of Jancy. We also got s4 featuring the other 2 main couples: Jopper and Lumax so it's probably going to switch to the other 2 couples to finish it off and wrap up the relationship and character arcs. The duffers really really love the whole story beat of "break the characters up and then show them coming back together". You can tell because this is exactly what they did with Jopper and Lumax in s4. Jopper obviously had a physical distance that broke them up but Lumax had an emotional distance. The same things Jancy and Mileven/Byler are bringing into s5. Arguably you could even say Byler went through this in s4.
3. Cmon bro the final scene where Nancy RUNS to Jonathan and Robin pats Steve's back is the most obvious thing of all time. People bring up the script and that it wasn't a big moment in the script but those scripts are redacted as hell to avoid giving out more information.
4. Jonathan and Steve had a pretty clear parallel this season when talking about having kids in the future. Jonathan and Steve essentially come to the same vision for their futures but both decide differently. Jonathan hates it and Steve loves it. We also know from s1 and every piece of info we've got about Nancy since s1 that Nancy also hates it and doesn't want to raise a bunch of kids. Yes I know it's possible to pursue a career and have kids. But kids in this situation and the vision Steve have don't only represent kids but also represent her parents and their relationship. Which is what the show has always told us Steve represents to her and in everything we saw in s4 he hasn't developed into this new person, he still represents that. Even if the character himself has still improved he still represents that.
5. As soon as Stancy is introduced in s4 we also get introduced to the fact that Nancy isn't over Barb and Barb will still be a part of her arc. Which she pretty inextricably links to Steve.
6. This is the one people don't realize often but s4 is literally maybe 5(?) months after the end of s3. Taking place in March 86 with S3 ending Oct 85 and about 8 months after the end of s3. Steve has seemingly had literally 0 contact with Nancy in that time and doesn't fall for her again in s4. He's already fantasizing about her as he says so it's presented as a continuation of the feelings he's always had for her and he seemingly isn't as over her in s3 as was implied. If the writers are going to write that relationship, they are essentially saying they were wrong, the characters were wrong and the audience was wrong about the relationship.
7. This is kind of a half point expansion of the above but like.....seriously it's important that none of the feelings in s4 are new feelings, it's all old feelings for a relationship the writers have told us 1 million times doesn't work. I keep seeing people say "they are different people" but they aren't that different from when they broke up. Steve's actual in show character arc has always been a lot more revolving around Nancy than it is about his relationship with Robin or the kids. Like as much as the fandom is about Steve and the kids and it's cute(And I like this too! I don't dislike this) in the show when he becomes friends with Dustin it's all tied back to Nancy with that final Dustin-Nancy scene and the relationship literally being developed with Steve ranting about his relationship. S3 his relationship with Robin in the original version is written as a romantic one as he gets over Nancy. Even in the show for 90% of s3 it seems Steve looks at Robin as a romantic partner and then switches to friends when she's not available. I think people forget he's not actually babysitting the kids in his off time in the show-the fandom is cute and such- but I don't think he spends significant time with anyone except Dustin and Robin in the show. This is moreso a point about how the writers of the show are kinda poor at evolving the characters. But seemingly the way it was presented in s4 Nancy and Steve are essentially in an incredibly similar position to when they broke up in s2.
8. Joyce in the recent play. Ok I need this to be said but like Emmerson vs NYU is a thing people make out as a bigger deal than it is. Emmerson is like an excellent university too??? Like IK people want Jonathan to be validated but he is getting validated by going to a big university. The university you pick when you're a kid doesn't really matter that much and seemingly even Jonathan hasn't brought it up. Like as a kid I wanted to go to my local uni a lot but I didn't go in the end. Emerson isn't like bumming it out it's a pretty great uni. But morseo I mean Joyce's whole arc in the First Shadow is about not going to university as an art student. They are surely not going to make her son do the exact same thing. This one is really simple I don't need to explain it.
9. I think Jopper literally solves like all of Jonathan's family issues because he won't feel as burdened and that he HAS to stay.
10. Oh as a final point I'm fairly certain Argyle with Eden in Suzie's house in s4 was supposed to be a backdoor pilot for a spinoff. And I think Jonathan's only other ending they've given so far is California. I think maybe they could include Jonathan in a spinoff but I don't think they'd want to. Like they've said they don't want to continue any mains story after s5 and Argyle is periphery enough he could leave and have a spinoff and it could work with an occasional Dustin cameo or whatver but with Jonathan I feel like he is a bit too tied to the Byers for him to be in a spinoff. Like you'd have to include the Byers too and I don't think they would want one that features central characters too much.
11. This is just my opinion.

I just came across a video where a guy says that Jacaerys'dad could actually be Criston Cole 🤡. Because Rhaenyra marries Laenor shortly after her argument with Cole and is quickly pregnant with Jacaerys. This theory is so absurd that I don't know if I should laugh or cry.
WARNING ASOIAF CANON ONLY (like everything else I discuss leave redacted in the trash where it belongs or at least away from my blog)
Tumblr media
I have already extensively written about how there is no indication in canon that Rhaenyra and Criston were ever lovers, much less in a physical way. Actually, most evidence would show the contrary.
Check here
Check here
More here
And finally here where I discuss the only place where a "rumoured" romance between them is mentioned - A Fest for Crows - and how long ago this was written and all of the changes to the story that happened since. For instance, at the time Feast was launched, Lyonel Strong was listed as Rhaenyra's first husband and there's no record of Daemon existing. Just as two quick examples but there's a lot more.
But answering this ask specifically, let me just see if I got everything.
So we are told that when Rhaenyra and Criston have their final break either he refuses her advances or she refuses his, and according to Mushroom, the same night she goes to Harwin. Next day, Criston is wearing Alicent's favour, Harwin is wearing Rhaenyra's favour, Criston breaks Harwin's collarbone and elbow, and by the years's end a boy who is the spitting image of Harwin Strong is born and the conclusion here is that Criston is or could be his father (i.e., for those who need clarification Criston was from the Stormlands and had black hair and green eyes; Harwin was from the Riverlands and had brown hair, brown eyes and a pug nose). This is the conclusion.
Tumblr media
I don't know why the youtuber - this is Preston right *sigh reserved exclusively for Preston's "theories" cause I saw that video - stop at Jace. F_ck, they are all Criston's and Criston is a secret Stark who can warg into other bodies. Oh hell, let's not stop at the "Velaryon" princes, he's actually Aegon and Viserys's dad as well since he warged into Daemon too. Hell maybe Daeron is also his.
OH OH! Since Criston turned to Alicent they became lovers, this was why he was so close to all of her children and AND HE WAS A SECRET TARGARYEN AS WELL AS A SECRET STARK!
Tumblr media
This youtuber needs to learn about the Principle of Parsimony, allow me to explain: "The principle of parsimony, also known as Occam's razor, states that the most acceptable explanation of an occurrence, phenomenon, or event is the simplest, involving the fewest entities, assumptions, or changes"
In short, if there are multiple explanations to the same phenomena, pick the simplest one. Also 2 + 2 =4. It's just that simple.
Literally this is me reading this:
youtube
Gods! This fandom!
Tumblr media
I was going to say Anon that you should laugh, but we don't know if at this point it's some illness the youtuber has or something 😂 so... I don't know, maybe give them someone's number. Someone brave's number. Someone really brave. And if they happen to be a man who procreated, advise a paternity test, 'cause any woman would easily have him fooled.

same one more to love anon here SPICY SNIPPET PLS OR ALL OF THE ABOVE OR WHATEVER YOU WANT
Here's a little bit of spice, little bit of oh god why!
He hears it before anything, a muffled groan, a too-sharp smack that breaks through what has to be three layers of silencing charms, not that they're doing much good. Remus looks swiftly up at Sirius. "You told him we're coming, yes?"
Sirius waves him off with a scoff. "He's my brother and it's the middle of the work day. I hardly need an appointment, Moony!"
The squeak of a wooden desk on a tile floor makes Remus think otherwise. "Maybe we should send a Patronus?"
"Yeah, Pads, you can show off your new wolf!" James teases, slinging his arm around Remus's shoulder. "Sure Reg'll get a crack out of that."
"I'm not sending in a Patronus!" Sirius snaps. He rolls his eyes and flicks James's nose, for good measure. "He's here every day from the arse crack of dawn to seven pm, workaholic twat that he is."
Remus grimaces and wishes, not for the first time, that he could just shut off his stupid hearing. Except it's not just that. Scents are now filtering through, permeating his brain and firing off synapses that really are not appropriate. "It's not that I don't think he's here," Remus says in a final attempt to avert this crisis. "Rather the opposite, in fact. It's just… um. He might be with someone?"
Sirius gives him an odd look. "I mean, we're not strutting in there naked and tied, are we? I'm sure his client will survive the interruption."
"Yeah!" James agrees. "He fired his last assistant, too, right? That Amanda bird? So it's fine!"
Remus looks heavenward and sighs. God, why was he in love with two absolute idiots? He braces himself for the worst as Sirius opens the thick cedar door emblazoned with "Chimera Cursebreaking". Remus hangs back, but even still, he gets a fairly decent eyeful of the scene. 
Regulus is poured over the side of his desk, trousers down but shirt fully on and buttoned (with cufflinks and all), getting absolutely railed by his mate: {REDACTED}.

Deep Night Ep 7 Thoughts
Just gonna blow on through these last two episodes. I don’t have anything fun to say right now. My boss texted me saying he hopes I feel better tomorrow because [redacted] is buying us Chipotle for lunch. So there’s that. Anyway. On to Deep Night 7: Let’s Send This Cop Calling Bitch to Heaven:
I’m gonna be real honest. I haven’t posted my episode 6 thoughts yet. They’re so sparse I thought I’d just finish out the show and post all of my thoughts for the last three episodes at once.
This bitch is back? Girl in your sob story be sure to mention that you blackmailed a host into getting blackout drunk and also that you were reimbursed for your phone. Literally all you lost was your blackmail footage. I hope all of your straps on your strappy heels break. I hope all of your hems fray. I hope all of your mascara runs. You seem like the kind of person that would care about all of that. *y’all catch me in the bathroom holding her shampoo bottle and a suspicious looking liquid* don’t look at me I SWEAR it’s not permanent. Her hair will only be purple for like a day. I swear.
Oh no poor Wela. This bitch just outed him. There’s a reason she was told to stop filming. Also you wanted to stay with him all night? Girl he almost needed his stomach pumped. He would barely last five more minutes with you let alone the whole damn night. I think I’m actually gonna kill her what the fuck. I hope they all get their sweet, sweet revenge because I need to see it. I need to see it.
Not the lost scholarship! Listen. Listen here. I do not trust any scholarship that does not include the ability to work as one of the terms for disbursement. He’s getting paid to study? Great! How about his living expenses? He needs to eat. Does the scholarship help pay off debts? No because I’m betting there are strict rules surrounding what it can be disbursed for and I’m guessing all of them have to do with the pursuit of education in some way. Not paying off debts. (oh look this is kind of what I do for a living myself I have a lot of thoughts about scholarships okay)
Mr. DJ Man is named James! It has been almost the whole show but I finally learned his name.
Awwww Dai. I love you.
It actually hurt Seiji to tell Ken that Pan is his boyfriend. I think there is a solution here. It’s very simple. Trust me on this. Just trust me. Date…both of them. Two boyfriends! Everyone is happy! Including me! Yay poly! *serious and stern voice while I stare directly into your soul* give. me. poly. 
This is such a good moment. Such a small hope. Even when everything feels lost. Even when everything is crashing down. Even when it feels like your life is over in every conceivable way just one person saying “we can do it.”
Tumblr media
Just one person still believing there is hope in the world. Just one person having faith is enough. They do not win as long as just one person believes they can do it. Just one person holding on to hope so fiercely can bring so many people up. “We can do it. You can do it. You are not alone.” Anyway I love Khem. Remember in the first episode when I was like “ehhh I don’t know about this guy and now I’m like Khem’s third biggest fan (right after Wela and his mom of course).
Okay *cracks knuckles* I will be watching how the school administration handles this very closely. I have a bunch of colleges on the shit list in my head. I don’t mind adding a fictional one. Why is the teacher the one in charge of this? Why is he talking about one student’s scholarship to another student? I know I know it’s fiction and I know the why but this is driving me crazy. Do you know how many times I have told people recently “I cannot discuss a student’s personal financial information with a third party” because it has been numerous times. And that’s less information than what Khem is getting! And I know they’re boyfriends and I know the point they’re making and I know all of that. It’s just…like I said. I do this for a living. My eye is twitching. If anyone familiar with the inner workings of Thai scholarships wants to tell me how realistic this is, I would appreciate it. I only got my US American perspective and it is causing me so much stress right now.
So Ken is in his sad, kicked puppy era. It makes me like him more? He just needed to soften up a bit and stop being such an ass. And honestly he did stop when he saw that Pan also genuinely cared for Seiji and he apologized for being an ass. Now the three of them kiss?
Khem suggesting poly. My man. I love him. I can’t believe there was ever a time I didn’t love him….wait it’s because he didn’t take the free cookies. I still can’t believe he would do that. But I guess he really just likes durian fries and red soda.
HAHAHSHFS;HIDG;ISHDGH WHY DID KHEM HAVE THAT PORN SO READY TO GO ON HIS PHONE AAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH
Pan is so funny. Like he just realized that couples have sex lives last episode when seeing Khem and Wela going at it in the pool and now he’s having a fantasy threesome with Seiji and Ken and I love this man. I would like to order a full series of Pan. I don’t even care what it’s about. Just more of him.
Freya, I love you. But love has no age. Also lesbianism has no age. Be out and be proud girl! Imagine how happy everyone will be for you! Including Meiji (look at me learning a name. Aren’t y’all proud of me?)
I think it’s actually really important that Pan started considering poly on his own, outside of Seiji and Ken. Because if either of them introduce it to him then he will start to feel insecure about his role in the relationship. But if he feels like there’s something there before either of them have the chance to mention it, then he will see what they have has real and not as a way for the two of them to get together while he is also involved but on the sidelines. I am probably not explaining this well but I still think it’s important that Pan is thinking about this on his own.
Ope looks like it’s time for me to watch episode 8. I like the hopeful note that episode 7 ended on. Not a lot of penultimate episodes end on a hopeful note. Most of them go full drama. I like this this show is weaving the drama with hope and wholesomeness. This is how relationships should work. I am very excited and sad to almost be done with this show.

Rules: Make a 24 hour poll with the names of your WIPs, let it run, then work for 10 minutes for every vote the winner receives.
Thank you for the tag, @angelcasendgame!!!!! I am not sure I will be able to work on anything very soon just because life came after me again, and turns out I'm gonna be moving over the next month or so, but I really do hope I can find time!!
None of these have names yet lol. I put the SPN ones first, but technically I've been trying to break my writer's block by returning to The Great Gatsby (It's all Nick/Gatsby btw, just realized that might not be immediately evident) with limited success. It's always come easier for me. But all of this is stuff I do actively want to work on.
Ohh I don't know who to tag. I'm sure everyone in this circle has been tagged already, and most of the people I talk to regularly enough to know about their projects have more or less left Tumblr... I do absolutely want to pass this your way though, @antique-ro-man!! (It's Wes, btw!) I also wanna tag @heyfagbutt! And then anyone else who sees this and wants to participate, I also encourage it!! This is such a cool idea :D !!
Long, rambling explanations down here ⬇⬇
I think the name is pretty explanatory? The gist of it is they go after the same guy and become pseudo-enemies but they keep bumping into each other like this and decide to work together after a while 👍 this is a really bad hook LMAO. Anyway, I'm trying to build on the idea that they work REALLY well together when they do it intentionally but fail comically when they don't.
Pretty much what it says on the tin as well. No Supernatural AU. Dean goes to a community college to get a certification to help with his work elsewhere, but Cas, a figure drawing model, catches him drawing (which Dean's been doing on and off as a hobby) and tries to get him to sign up for the arts program.
I technically only have a summary of this, and I'm not entirely sure if I will write it all out, but I do want to at least put more time into the development before I dedicate to giving up on it bc of scope lol. I just have SUCH a soft spot for fake relationship AUs. Also, I just found out that while I have FINALLY aged into independent FAFSA eligibility, I am once again tax bracketed out. Anyway, financial abuse is real and I want to project my suffering onto Dean. Also immigrant Cas, but I haven't decided where I want him to be from yet. I think this has a lot of potential for some pretty hefty character redesigns too so it's also compelling to me from that angle. I guess I could also write it for TGG, but I did initially think of it for Destiel, so.
I don't know how to explain this one very well except that I had unhelpfully written "poolboy au" in my notes and then proceeded to forget what the hell I meant. This fic was an attempt to resurrect that but ended up being a funky modern West Coast re-imagining where Gatsby can't even "make it" as much as he wants to, and Nick can't find a place to live except for a less-than-legally rented pool house. It's not meant to be a full rewrite or anything though.
Uhhh yeah, I'm keeping the details private for this one ahaha but that's just because it wasn't supposed to be a big deal and I told a friend she would see what it was when it was done...like oh god probably a month ago at this point... My original scope for this was quite small, but research for it, indecision, and a nasty case of writer's block that I've had for nearly a year now have kept development a bit slow. Hopefully, I'll finish it before the year comes to a close.
I also don't know how to explain this one well other than "after being rejected by Daisy (Canon Divergent), Gatsby attempts to buy his way into a bewildered Nick's heart. Though the fic is from Nick's POV, Gatsby's just had his worldview shattered and is in a bit of denial, but instead of pursuing Daisy harder, he channels all of that energy into Nick (though he's not really sure why he's doing it at first). I wasn't sure what to put up at the top because I absolutely don't want my code name for this public at least until it's done LMAO.

This Episode of What Is Bel Doing Instead of What They Should Be (Imperium Edition)
Okay, as I am sitting here in class when I very much should be doing my work I have more things popping into my head about the redacted verse. CW: It is talking about the Imperium
1. So we know that Tank and David died when Tank did what Tank does best (diving headfirst into a situation) But like I can’t stop thinking that they couldn’t move on after that night and so just a little Tank ghost is constantly following around Ash and Milo. David was able to move on but  They just couldn’t forgive themselves for being the reason why David is dead. They mainly follow Ash to just kinda keep a close eye on him and make sure He’s okay (which most of the time He’s not).  And all while they see how everything they have done has affected the others in the pack they never can get it out of their head that everything is all their fault. And anytime Milo and Ash talk about them they listen extra hard to hear just the possibility that they are missed, loved and even the slightest forgiven but neither one of them says it. 
2. Damien has burned Angel several times. You can’t tell me otherwise. It definitely wasn’t on purpose but he never apologized after, they either got into a fight and Damien just grabbed their wrist when they tried to storm away, or they were having some… fun time and Damien got a little excited. There was only once when Damien apologized for it and it was after a really big argument they had:
           “I never did anything Damien!”
            “THAT is your fucking problem! You never fucking do anything. I am always the one who does shit. You are a lazy bitch who can’t do shit for themselves!” 
“I’m a lazy bitch? Damien half the time you don’t let me lift a goddamn finger! What AM I supposed to do? All I can do is sit here while you breath down my fucking neck!”
Damien all of a sudden gets really calm. “Well then…If my love is such a bother to you, maybe you’d like to see what it’s like when I hate your guts.” His skin starts to basically steam and he slowly walks towards Angel, and they’re just as slowly backing away from him with fear in their eyes. They know exactly what's going to happen.
“Damien… Damien please calm down. Dames, I’m sorry. I'm sorry but please stop. You’re scaring me.”
“I’m scaring you… am I? You weren’t scared a second ago” Eventually Angel hits the wall and Damien corners them. “I. Love. You. And all the SHIT I do is for you. If you’re so pathetic that you can’t see that. Then maybe I have to show you.” 
Angel starts to shake and sob, looking down at the ground. “Look at me.” They don’t. “I said…” He grabbed their faces, his body was running at a temperature it had never run before. “LOOK AT ME YOU BITCH!” 
Angel let out a blood curdling scream and Damien snapped out of his fit, letting go of their face. They dropped to the ground still screaming and crying in pain. “Angel…. Angel, shit what did I do?” He fell down to Their level. “Angel let me see” He reached his hands out but they backed away, shaking. “Angel… My love, I'm so sorry. Please… I’m sorry, let me help. I can make it better just please. Let me see how bad it is.
3.  Once they had gotten the information from Lasko’s computer, Freelancer was planning on trying to seduce him. The thought of it made their stomach turn and made them feel like they wanted to puke. But if it meant giving Vin, Vega and Anton more time, they would have done it
4. Half way through Asher’s tangent he went on about killing Alexis, Babe wanted to go to bed like he had told them when they walked in. The information being thrown at them was getting to be too much and they felt their head start spinning but like hell they were gonna let Asher think they were weak. So they stuck it out and once he was done they said good night and went to bed and had a full on break down before going to sleep
5. Avior is actually really glad that Starlight stayed and listened to everything he was saying because it meant that someone in the imperium could push the case and he would finally start being listened to 
6. Vincent both loves to see when Lovely is weak and crying under him when he feeds, and pained that he’s hurting them because he also is secretly falling for them but hes not letting up because Adam had let them know that Vincent used to be “weak” and he was going to show them that he is NOT weak
7. The Freelancer x Vindemiator confession probably went something like this
       It was the fifth time that Freelancer had to go to Lasko and basically beg him to see Vin again. He never scheduled them times regularly because he’s a sick fucker who likes it when they come to his office.
“I thought you said that you would start scheduling regular visits with him” Freelancer sat in the chair across his desk with their arms crossed
“I know, I know I said I would but the truth is that… I’ve been so busy that I sometimes forget. How about I make a call and see if I can get you in next Thursday?” 
“No! You said that you would schedule so that I could see him on the 5th and 22nd of each month, AT LEAST, its now the 14th and I still haven't been able to see him because when I went on the 5th they wouldn’t let me see him because I wasn’t scheduled. You’re not being fair!” They stood up, and reached over as if they were gonna make the call themselves. 
“O-Okay, okay. I’ll make a call and you can go see him tomorrow. How about that?” He snatched the phone back.
Freelancer didn’t say anything and just walked out of his office. The next day Lasko had held his word and scheduled them to see Vin. They walked into the room and Vin wasn’t there. Their blood began to boil and they knew they had been tricked. They were about to storm out  and go yell at Lasko again when Vin walked in. 
“Freelancer?.... Finally.” He pulled them in for a hug. “Wh-What took so long? I mean I know that school probably keeps you busy but… it’s been almost 20 days since you were here last. I thought you were allowed on the 5th and 22nd.” They sat down on his bed.
“Moore’s being a shit head. Every time I have to practically beg him to let me see you.” That made Vin’s mood change very quickly, “Wait… have you been keeping count?” The questioned
“Well… yeah… I don’t really have much else to do. It like a fucking prison almost. And when you’re not here the days are so lonely and long that I have to keep track so that I don’t lose my mind” He still had them in his arms.
“Vin…”
“Freelancer… I have to tell you something. And I… I just want you to listen while I do. You are the light in this shitty, evil, dark world. You are what keeps me going. Honestly I… I don’t know where I would be without you, but I know it wouldn’t be good. I don’t care if you don’t feel the same way, because I just need to get it off my chest. It’s been eating at me for months and I need it to stop. Freelancer… I like you… way more than I thought I possibly could.” 
Freelancer didn’t say anything for a solid minute, they just stared at Vin in shock. 
“Okay I lied… I do care if you feel the same way… please say something” 
“Vin… can I… can I kiss you?” 
“Absolutely” Vin chuckled and Freelancer leaned in and pulled his face to theirs. Once they pulled away they still didn’t say anything just started into his eyes. “What does this mean…” He whispered
“Vin… I like you too.” They laughed.
“Oh… then… Can I  kiss you again?” Freelancer nodded.

3. What is your writing ritual and why is it cursed?
14. Do you lend your books to people? Are people scared to borrow books from you? Do you know exactly where all your “lost” books are and which specific friend from school you haven’t seen in twelve years still possesses them? Will you ever get them back?
22. How organized are you with your writing? Describe to me your organization method, if it exists. What tools do you use? Notebooks? Binders? Apps? The Cloud?
28. Who is the most delightful character you’ve ever written? Why?
So many questions! Let me overshare!
3. What is your writing ritual and why is it cursed? I do my best writing in the gremlin hours, after everyone has gone to sleep and it's just me, my dog, and my Spotify playlists featuring [redacted]. I don't use a desk, only a small laptop table and the couch. I always have a blanket, no matter the weather. And I use split screen - one side to write and one side to shuffle through all the chats I screenshot that has pieces of the story I'll eventually tie together. And no matter the time, I always have a cup off coffee. It's 10:20PM and I'm finishing the pot right now before I go make a half one that'll carry me over until I go to bed. If no one got me, I know my coffee maker got me.
14. Do you lend your books to people? Are people scared to borrow books from you? Do you know exactly where all your “lost” books are and which specific friend from school you haven’t seen in twelve years still possesses them? Will you ever get them back? In 8th grade, I let a girl named Alexandra - not Alex - borrow my brand new copy of The Slippery Slope, the 10th book in the A Series of Unfortunate Events run. She was very nice. She wore her hair in braids. I remember this because I used to sit behind her and wonder how long it took to get her braids like that. But more importantly, to the story at least, I was in love. She saw me reading it at recess, hiding behind the big tree so the nuns (Catholic school survivor over here) didn't yell at me and she told me that she wanted to read it too. Being in love, I did not even hesitate. In fact, I didn't even finish reading it. I gave it to her, right in the middle of the story, and told her she could give it back when she was done. She was a slow reader, but she brought it to recess every day and we sat under the big tree and she'd flip through the pages at an excruciating pace and I kept telling myself, it's fine, it's fine, it's fine - she'll be done soon and then you can finish it. The Baudelaires can wait. But then she was absent one day. And then the next. And for a whole week. And at the end of three weeks, I finally found out that she moved. And she took the book with her! Or at the very least, left it behind where I could never find it. The heartbreak. The devastation. I vowed to never let anyone ever borrow a book again. I made my wife buy her own copy of a book she wanted to borrow from me. Good thinking, too, because she left it behind when we went on vacation to the coast. It's probably someone's odd choice for a beach read now.
22. How organized are you with your writing? Describe to me your organization method, if it exists. What tools do you use? Notebooks? Binders? Apps? The Cloud? My organization skills extend to page breaks and applying title formatting to my gdocs. Sometimes I do handwritten notes that I scribble down during Very Important Meetings, but they tend to look like one of those whiteboards coaches use in football games to dictate the play. Like this:
Tumblr media
And by the time I get around to using the notes, the X's and O's don't make sense anymore. I tried Scrivener for a bit but it's... too organized? I like going through my phone's camera roll to find all the chats I've screenshot with small fic notes or big ideas. Somehow, that makes the most sense to me.
28. Who is the most delightful character you’ve ever written? Maybe it's just because I'm Really In It Now, but Ava Silva is a goddamn delight. She gets to be charming and thoughtful and funny and I'm really just having the best time with her.

3: Temper
Tumblr media
character: ianthe pyr visellia || wc: 514
Charis,
I’m sure you’ve been dying to hear from me. As always, I’ve thought of you, too. We’re on leave this week, so if you want to give me a call, for once I’ll be able to answer. The pilots docked us at Ala Mhigo. Interesting place. We’re not staying long, but we need the break. I can’t tell you where we’re headed, but I can tell you that it’ll be cold as home. A few weeks ago, some flyboy got cocky and got his craft clipped with an outsized harpoon on the same route we’ll be taking, so I’m taking this time to write to you before some Eorzean artilleryman spears this big fucking ship like a fish.
To the point, I’ve been thinking of what you said when you were in your pillows last month. I know -- I'm ridiculous -- I'm sorry. I promised to tell you if there was any progress with that biotech that van Hydrus wanted to put in a bid for. You’ll be equal parts relieved and pissed to hear that the same crackpot continues to work on it here, but the latest experiments failed, and his funding is finally out the window.
The missive I got about it says a whole lot of nothing, except that we wouldn’t be able to adapt it for protection from tempering after all. Everyone you talk to thinks that it’s idiotic, so I’m sure you and they are right. Still, I'm not the medicus, so while we’re here I was hoping to poke my stupid nose in where it’s not wanted. I can't: everything is redacted past the most inconsequential questions. I wouldn’t even have clearance to ask where the bathroom is.
It doesn't matter much. If you ask my unit, I’ve heard nothing but disappointment that the funding is gone. Asina might as well start offering trials to us— I almost wish our Centurion wouldn’t have told them it was being looked into. Not a soul in the company knows what it would’ve entailed, and most of them don't give a shit. We’re still pouring out drinks for Cassia and Decimus. The newest ones are starting to notice the turnover rate, and it’s all I can do to keep their chins up, let alone convince the big guns it really is that bad. The thought of something that could protect them was important to them, no matter how crackpot the theory was to you. We’re not scientists, at least, most of us. The boys just want to get back home, stupid as it sounds to you in the capital. It’s a dangerous way to think, but I understand. I want to get home, too.
Sorry about the short, sad letter. I haven’t had enough firewine yet to convincingly write the cheerful ones you prefer. I'll write you something that would make an infantryman blush later, after we all get off the ship and get blasted. (Bad joke, or no?) So if dirty talk is right out, there’s not much else I can share without breaking my own security rules. No, sorry. I can add that there’s little risk of tempering on the upcoming missions. If I die up here, I'd just get to be regular dead, instead of getting tempered and then getting blitzed from the gunship by someone I'm about to go have drinks with. Big relief, that.
I know you don’t stay up at night worrying about me, but I’m never forgetting that you admitted you do worry, a little bit. When I’m hellbent instead of homeward bound, that’s enough to keep me going.
Take care of yourself. Write when you can. Tell me how you are, how life is. I love you -- I really do.
Yours, Ianthe

JUNE 1st --> JUNE 31st
Although he made it out alive, Louis still checked in with the doctor. His life force was restored by Theo, but he still... you know, had some missing teeth, some cracked ribs -- all that. A few splints, casts, and plans for a temporary tooth mold as they marked down appointments to set up actual implants later, and he was told to get some R&R. 
Let it be known, their friendship had suffered such a strain, and he was so distracted by other, more immediate, things, that he didn’t hear of Will being in a coma until... (give it a second.)
But some R&R was the last thing he got. His first order of business after checking out was, for obvious reasons, returning to Khevna. He began trying to find ways to test her supposed ability even more and has plans to ask Xavier about it in the future.
He attended Theo’s funeral, guilt over her dying to save him ( and others, but, like... ) becoming overwhelming. He figures one woman he loved died at his hands, and another woman he loved ( in a much different way ) died to save him and his borderline useless ability. But if she thought he was worth saving... what did that say about him ? Should he have been thinking of it as useless ? Should he have-
To break from it all, he decided to take leave from Xavier’s. He bought plane tickets for himself and Khevna and flew to England to see his mother, in person, for the first time in over a decade. The first time since his father’s funeral.
She was ecstatic to finally meet Khevna in real life and, through her telepathy, alerted Louis that she was, indeed... just apathetic. He worked things out with his mother quite a bit, told her what had happened with Iditri ( the uncensored version ), received the comfort he had been missing, etc.
A part of him longed to officially quit Xavier’s and move back to England. A new life, an effective support system, away from all cruel reminders...
But a phone call alerted him that Will had fallen into a coma on the 1st, and he realized that he wasn’t allowed the luxury of being able to pick up and leave. So much of his life was in New York City, it became inescapable.
And now, [REDACTED] has found her way back into his life...
FULL ARC ONE RECAP BELOW:
he became finley walsh’s first official tour guide of the xavier institute. all you need to know is that he was fond of her and casey and i have a lot of found family headcanons to execute now that finley has returned.
he learned that friend-of-over-a-decade will o’connell had joined the staff of xavier’s and gave him the super cool and uncensored tour. as it turned out, their classrooms were directly across from one another, thus providing perfect timing to hang out in between and/or get some advice ! but this ecstasy was short-lived. when he went over to visit will in his new apartment, he was greeted by both a friendly face with some cookies... and an overwhelming darkness. a rotting. ezra shaw’s imprint. he confronted will about this and told him all he knew of ezra, including his aura. unfortunately, when given an accidental ultimatum, will chose ezra over louis. ezra showed up to louis’s office one day to threaten him, as will had apparently spilled the beans on what louis had shared. this prompted louis to send a short, straight-to-the-point, ‘let louis say fuck!,’ email to will. and that was that.
louis ran into ezra shaw on the street. he had a past with ezra, having known him for a brief amount of time when he was semi-recruited for xavier’s. ezra took advantage of his ability and overwhelmed him, this being one of the reasons he decided against attending the school. however, so many people had done that to him, it was a distant memory. but what wasn’t ? his aura. and it had only worsened over time. he used his taxi service and, as both a passive aggressive flex and a generous donation, tipped ezra big time. ezra showed up at his office later on, telling him to stay away from will and to stop ‘running his mouth.’ louis got out unscathed, pointing out that ezra was: 1) outnumbered, 2) in a place that he was not welcomed, 3) outpowered ( i mean... emma frost alone could destroy him... ), and 4) if he harmed or killed louis on the grounds, there would be some kind of ban on him established... so will would know. will would see the truest of his true colors. seeing entropy stab finley in the middle of the street -- entropy had the exact same aura as ezra. while not impossible to have the exact same auras, it’s very rare...
santiago ‘santi’ de leon informed him over email that ezra had nearly killed him, only sparing him because he was ‘insignificant,’ and that, in louis’s words, will had still chosen ezra. they began brainstorming how they could get through to him and set up a date and time to discuss the matter, along with cyra de leon, in-person. louis and santi were underground together and came to the conclusion, following some strings of thought and louis’s aura reception, that ezra was, most likely, entropy.
louis visited nicholas walker and brought khevna to have a playdate with ava. they spent some time going over the ethics of xavier sending new kids out to be spies for the brotherhood, but that wasn’t the most important part. when they were leaving, khevna did not seem like her usual self. she was chatty, shared opinions, offered some excitement, and had an aura. however, when they got home, it had all gone away... and louis realized that nicholas’s ability had likely stripped something from her -- it was all a matter of figuring it out.
strong vibez and residual memory brought louis to an abandoned warehouse. inside, he found emmeline essex. overcome with a mixture of joy and anger and sadness and bitterness and -- basically, overcome with strong residual emotion, he had to excuse himself to ‘turn off’ his ability.. but, naturally, returned to free her. after acting like she had the plague or something, he drove her back to the institute and allowed her to say as much or as little as she wanted. both in the car and in his office. he assured her that everyone had regrets ( while thinking... ‘but damn, most regrets aren’t really comparable to the essex house...’ ) and cared for her as she calmed down enough to tell him more about what had happened.
on june 1st, he and cyra de leon made plans to launch an attack. he would briefly incapacitate two distracted brotherhood members to provide her time to do her thing... but it didn’t pan out.
on june 1st, he attempted to infiltrate maria ‘mari’ sanchez’s headspace just long enough to get a punch in. it worked, but she beat his ass after that while he launched psychological attacks, full of her worst memories and his most peaceful words. barely hanging onto consciousness, he managed to touch her leg, human contact being all he needed to send a strong signal: visuals of his story regarding iditri and the would-be-orphaned khevna, conjured visuals of mari and her parents, topped off with flowers and ladybugs.  with tears behind her mask and a sorrow he could feel, she let him go, essentially telling him to stop trying to fight, lest he get killed by one of the other members and force his daughter into orphan territory. but definitely in not so many words.
following this, louis was dangerously close to death’s door. he was saved, however, by theodora ‘theo’ rumley. realizing that she had died for him, and a few others, he was back in fight mode.

I’m keen to get the cyst(s) off my nose, next month I’ll go get a consultation
At the very least if my left one can go with minimal scarring that’ll be great
This weekend I was apart of history, I can’t understate how much of a fever dream being in London is
Everything is so fast-paced and I really want to enjoy the greenery and so forth
I helped Joanna give out tracts which is great as I haven’t done that in ages
So many people need to know Jesus and that is my prime purpose 
I did hope I didn’t see anyone but nevertheless people were open and to see someone from as far from Spain evangelise was great 
The week was turbulent
Working at redacted
I can pick up easily if a place is for me or not 
And in recent weeks something felt “off”
Admittedly I have been breaking off the mental blockage which made it hard for me to do even the most simple of repetitive admin tasks
So there’s that 
But this is the second NHS role where I’ve dealt with difficult management
Someone who brutally scrutinises, and it’s just a tense environment
My colleague told me she wanted to fire me on the spot so imagine the discomfort I have going into the office until the finale of my contract
Although she’s taking it on a week by week basis
Being a contractor can be demoralising, as a former precedessor who went to Australia after a horrible experience NHS, she made little mistakes but mistakes are inevitable with the nature of this job
The NHS is not for me - no wonder they’re striking
I don’t have the mental fortitude to take work home, my body is on the mend
They expect you to hit the ground running
I think they expect like super nanny but no context or parameters
it’s demoralising work
and I don’t like that but that’s the only work I have been doing since being here
it feels aimless
I just feel really worn down y’know a bit weary and discouraged
but perhaps spiritual warfare is more stronger as I’m on the verge of my next phase/transition
Womanhood
I did something this week which was embarrassing
i just feel so silly 
I feel my aunt is somewhere saying I told you so
Being told, repeatedly that I can’t do nothing
did wonders for my self esteem
I’m still breaking that off
And I forgive her but I wasn’t the most confident growing up
i can relate to my friend whose parents were hippies and had a laxed approach to life and how that upbringing still impacts her to do this with being organised or maintaining relationships
my parents weren’t hippies but i lacked that and did not have guidance
boobs protruding out of my chest
the neglect
it disgusts me how i was treated
anger and pettiness were my weapons
i do see why i would get into fights when i was younger
crippling depression
idk depression became my companion, maybe i thought it was cool to be a tortured artist
it really isn’t cool though, dealing with depression that leaves me bed bound is spiritual
in my family tree there is a history of mental illness and i’m being proactive in approaching it
my people perish for lack of knowledge
