Tumblr media
You were lost.
Cursing, you stopped in the middle of the empty street, turning on the spot, surveying your unfamiliar surroundings.
"Fuck me sideways." You muttered, taking a moment to rub your aching temples.
You had indulged in too much spiced wine at the festival, muddling your already questionable orienteering skills.
"If the lady insists." A hissing voice accompanied a slender man emerging from the shadows of a stone building.
He held no weapon, seeming to think you easy prey as he strode forward, already unbuckling his trousers.
You still held the stone you had picked up when Aemond had confronted the men in the market, and so you collected your frayed nerves, taking careful aim as Aemond had taught you.
You threw the shard of brick, it struck true with a dull thud to the man's head. He went down like a sack of flour, hitting the damp cobblestones with a dull thud.
Shaking, you hurried on your way, in the direction you hoped the Red Keep was in. At least you were still walking uphill, that seemed to be a good sign.
After a few minutes of meandering, warm yellow light fell upon your face, a tavern in front of you that appeared cozy and welcoming. As you entered, you noticed a few other patrons, but the dining area and counter was mostly empty. A squat looking man was stacking dishware behind the bar counter as you took a seat.
He gave you a cursory glance with a raised eyebrow, you shifted to hide the fine fabric of your dress beneath the cloak you still wore. You pulled back your hood, wanting to be recognizable if Aemond passed the window searching for you.
"What can I get you?" The bartender asked in a gruff baritone, seeming not to care what brought you to his establishment so long as you had gold.
"Do you have hot tea? Or something non-alcoholic?" You asked. "I just came from the fire festival and had a bit too much to drink there."
"Ah I see!" The man smiled, his ruddy cheeks reflecting the candlelight. "Yes, I can get you some green tea brewed up. Does wonders for a hangover."
"Thank you."
Minutes passed, turning to hours as you sat at the uncomfortable wooden table. You drank several mugs of steaming earthy tea, enjoying the way it warmed your body from the inside out.
"Are ye waiting for someone?" The bartender looked at you quizzically, clearly wondering why you were remaining for so long. All the other patrons had left for their homes by now.
"Yes, my husband."
"You're lost?"
You shifted uneasily in your seat, casting him a wary glance.
He raised his hands, a towel draped over his shoulder. "I mean you no harm miss, but if you'd like directions, I can give them." He glanced outside at the dark streets. "Though perhaps it best if you wait here, it's not safe for anyone to be wandering about right now."
"Where am I?"
He chuckled looked at you with a fatherly smile. "Outskirts of Flea Bottom."
You groaned.
"Not where you intended to be I expect. Not wearing a dress like that."
You shifted your cloak to cover yourself better.
"You have nothing to fear from me." The keeper reiterated. "I'll not cast you out till your husband comes to fetch you."
"Thank you." You lay your head upon your hands, staring glassy eyed out the window, praying to all the gods Aemond would find you.
You had fallen into a doze, jolted awake by the sound of the inn door slamming open and the exclamation of the barkeep still behind his counter.
Aemond, glorious with his shining hair and piercing violet eye, strode into the tavern, his gaze locked onto you.
"My-my prince! What an unexpected..." The tavern keeper trailed off as he watched Aemond walking purposefully toward you.
You rose from your seat, throwing your arms around Aemond's neck as he pulled you against him, his hands at your back, stroking soothingly as he kissed your ear.
You tried your best not to sob. "Aemond, I got lost."
"You're the wife of Aemond Targaryen?"
The two of you broke apart to turn to the front of the room, where the keeper was bowing low.
"He helped keep me safe." You interlocked your fingers with Aemond's.
Your husband stepped up to the rough wood counter, depositing a bag of clinking coins onto its surface. "You have my gratitude."
The man continued to bow, averting his gaze. Aemond made a soft "hmm" in the back of his throat, guiding you out of the warm room into the cool night air.
You didn't get far before he pulled you to a stop, his taut face illuminated silver in the moonlight. "I've been searching for you for hours, Y/N."
"I-"
He held up a hand to stop you from speaking. "You were not in our rooms. So, I returned to the square as quickly as I could, asking anyone still outside if they had seen you."
You looked down at your feet guiltily as Aemond continued.
"Imagine my surprise when I find a man collapsed upon the ground, a stone beside him and a lump on his forehead."
"He...had ill intentions." You whispered, still studying your shoes.
"Hmm. A shame I left him alive then." Aemond's fingers hooked under your chin, pulling your face to look up at him. "However, that is how I found you sitting in that tavern."
You slowly moved forward, tentatively wrapping your arms around Aemond's waist. You could tell how worn and anxious he was, specks of blood still upon his tunic from the men he'd dispatched earlier that evening.
"Aemond, I'm sorry for getting lost. I...was panicking and a little drunk." You smiled weakly as his face softened, his lilac eye roving your features as you rubbed small circles to the small of his back.
"I had intended this to be a relaxing evening of fun." Aemond said, giving a short laugh of derision. He cupped your face in his hands. You noticed they shook slightly. "I was beside myself with worry, Y/N." He brushed his soft lips to yours gently. "This is not a place for a woman to wander alone."
"You have me safe now, Aemond."
"And safe is where I will keep you."
He kissed you firmly, slanting his mouth over yours, his fingers tangling in your hair as you made a soft noise against him. In the tension of his body against your own you felt how worked up he was from the events of the night, the intensity with which he kissed you promised bruised lips in the morning.
“If we weren’t in public right now I'd have my head between your legs."
"Aemond." You whispered, shocked, as you checked over your shoulder for anyone listening. The streets were luckily empty, though several windows were wide open.
"Come." The prince grasped your hand firmly in his and began leading you in the correct direction of the Red Keep.
You breathed a sigh of relief at the welcome sight of your chambers, lit with the orange glow of a blazing fire in the hearth that you immediately crossed to stand before, warming your hands.
Your large, clawed bathtub sat full of steaming water in the middle of the room.
Aemond came up behind you, wrapping his arms around your middle, his chin resting on your shoulder.
"I had the servants draw a bath for your return, we are fortunate it seems to still be hot."
You felt him beginning to loosen the ties of your dress. "Do you want me to stay?" He asked, nuzzling into your neck. "I'd understand if you need to be alone. It has been a...difficult evening."
"Please stay, Aemond. I need you with me, especially right now."
He kissed your neck and resumed undoing your dress. You smiled to yourself at his evident eagerness to see you laid bare before him.
The fabric of your dress and undergarments pooled around your feet, you leaned into Aemond's warm touch as he fondled the curves of your ass and hips with one hand, his other reaching around to stroke at your breasts.
You turned to him, allowing his gaze to roam your firelit body. "You are still covered in blood, my lord husband." Your wandering fingers began undoing the clasps of his own clothing, shedding each garment with tender care until he was as naked as you, his thick member already standing at attention.
You smiled coyly at him, allowing him to support your balance as you stepped into the hot water of the bath. You sank down into the silken water, scooting forward enough for Aemond to take his place behind you.
You pressed your back against him, your hands running along his legs as they caged your body, his arms wrapping around your torso.
"I'm just getting comfy." You murmured, leaning back so that your head rested against Aemond's chest, looking up at his adoring gaze.
He had removed his eyepatch, the sapphire gemstone glittering dazzlingly by the reflection of firelight against the water that now lapped against the edges of the wooden tub.
The two of you rested like this together, rubbing each other down with soap and wash cloths. You took your time cleansing Aemond's skin, feeling the knots in his tense muscles and kneading them loose, his eye fluttered shut at your loving attentions.
Only when the water had cooled and the two of you began to shiver, did you exit the bath, helping each other towel down until you were relatively dry. Aemond grabbed your waist, pulling you in for another scorching kiss, one of many he'd bestowed upon you that night.
"Lay on the bed for me."
You obeyed, perhaps misinterpreting his meaning as you wrapped yourself in your nightrobe before getting comfortable in bed. You watched Aemond from your cocoon of blankets as he busied himself trying to get the stains out of his tunic and undershirt.
"Aemond..." You called quietly, trying to entice him over with the lilt of your voice.
"The blood has set into the fabric long enough, Y/N. Give me a moment to try and lift it."
"Aemond." You wiggled beneath the covers, seeking to draw his gaze.
“Just let me finish this and I swear I'll go down on you until you cum at least three times.”
"If you don't come over here now, I'm going to start touching myself."
You knew just what to threaten.
With a growl, Aemond threw down his ruined shirt upon the sofa, striding to the bed and throwing the blankets off your body. "Take that off." His dilated eye took in your tantalizing curves wrapped up in your fluffy nightrobe.
"I'm cold."
"Do not tease me anymore this eve." Aemond crawled over your prone form, dragging his teeth along your bottom lip. "You heard me. Take. It. Off."
You undid the tie around your waist, shifting the fabric off, exposing yourself once more to your husband's eager touch. His fingers rolled your pebbling nipples, tugging at your flesh, eliciting a gasp of pleasure from your lips as you arched into him.
"Already so wet for me." Aemond murmured against your lips, his hand cupping your sex, feeling between your slick folds.
You gasped at the feeling of him exploring you. In a fluid motion, you rolled your entwined bodies over, shifting to sit on his torso, looking down at Aemond's face, his curved lips parted in surprise.
"I want to be on top." You could barely speak, so entranced you were at the sight of him laid beneath you, his silver hair spread out atop the pillows. "Let me do this, please."
You rocked your hips, feeling his hard arousal beneath you as you stroked your vulva along Aemond's shaft. His eyelid fluttered at the sensation, his hands rising to grip your hips as you lost yourself in the feeling of him.
"Don’t be shy now, sit on my face.”
Your mouth parted, Aemond tugged you a little forward by his grip on your hips. "Are-are you sure I won't suffocate you?"
Aemond laughed. "If you do, I couldn't think of a better way to go."
Heat pooled in your belly as you scooted forward, bracing your hands against the bedframe as you hovered on your knees over Aemond's face. "You're sure?"
"Y/N."
Aemond rose just enough to tease your entrance with his nose, nuzzling against your swollen clit. You gasped, lowered yourself rather gracelessly onto his angular face.
You quivered, feeling Aemond's tongue working against you as you rocked gently against him. His chin, his nose all pressed against your most sensitive parts. The wet sound of him lapping up your essence filled the darkened room.
"Oh Aemond." You gripped the bedframe tighter, making sure to not actually suffocate your husband with your cunt no matter how he tried to pull you more against his searching mouth, his fingers pressing deep against the flesh of your thighs.
He grunted, the vibration of his voice causing you to clench around the tip of his tongue as he fucked it into you. His nose continued pressing and rubbing against your clit, Aemond moving his whole face with your movements as you began to grind down on him, losing your self control.
His name spilled from your panting mouth, your climax rushing over you like waves upon the sea cliffs. Aemond drank you down eagerly, his tongue lapping you up as though you tasted of the finest wine. You rode out your orgasm on his face, your legs shaking as you lifted yourself off him, collapsing to the mattress as your husband rolled over you once more. His hair was a mess, his lips and chin soaked from your juices. You bit your bottom lip at the lewd sight, his eye tracking the movement.
Aemond kissed you, more gently than you had anticipated, his tongue searching your mouth, allowing you to taste your own release as he lined his cock to your entrance. You gripped the back of his head, gasping against him as he sunk slowly into you. Aemond's breath filled your lungs as his cock stretched you out deliciously, filling you until he was fully seated within your still quivering walls.
Aemond broke your kiss, pulling away enough to watch your face as he began rutting into you. His gentleness gave way to a rougher, more desperate pace, his cock brushing your cervix with every punishing stroke. You clung to him, your legs rising instinctively to allow him deeper access.
"Y/N." Aemond breathed your name like a prayer, his chest still flush against your own as he nibbled the shell of your ear. "I can feel you tightening around me." You cried out as he increased his pace still more, fucking you deep into the mattress. "I need you to come. Show me you're mine." His cock twitched inside you. "Mine alone to claim."
"I am yours, Aemond." You felt your second orgasm of the night begin to rush through your body, your spasming quim already beginning to milk his member. "Forever yours."
Your name, so sweet on Aemond's tongue, filled the night air, mingling with your wordless moans of ecstasy as your husband spilled his hot seed within your clenching cunt. He pushed himself as deep into you as he could, remaining rooted there until you had both come down from the high of your climax.
Your legs were shaking in earnest now, Aemond reluctantly pulled away, his cum spilling out of you onto the now ruined bedsheets. Exhausted, satiated, and heedless of the mess you'd made, Aemond pulled you against him, encasing you in his arms. He placed a kiss to the top of your head as you made a pillow of his chest, his legs still tangled with your own.
Sleep took you quickly, a lock of Aemond's silken hair wrapped around your forefinger as you had a habit of doing when seeking comfort.
Aemond lay awake for a long while after you had drifted off, his mind still alive with the fear and rage that had consumed him mere hours before. Bedding you had taken the edge off, however the many gruesome possibilities of what could have happened remained unbidden and unwelcome.
He held you tighter against his lithe body, feeling the reassuring rise and fall of your chest on his, the light snores emitting from your slack mouth. Eventually exhaustion overtook Aemond, his eye falling closed, his lips still pressed to your head even in sleep.

Hello, I'm up kinda late rn but whatever. So I was thinking about how the reader has angel wings on the side of their head, like an angel. So basically the reader has an angelic voice too and after the beast were sealed away, the reader would always sing a lullaby next to the tree like they used to do before the beasts were corrupted. The beasts always get to hear the comforting singing. But what happens when they finally escape? Well I imagine them kidnapping reader and being by their side 24/7.
Tumblr media
Yes, they would definitely keep you by their sides always. You'd often have turns with them, spending about a week or so with each Beast before going to the next. That doesn't mean fights don't break out, of course.
Eternal Sugar Cookie often tries to hog all your attention, and she and Mystic Flour Cookie have gotten into cat fights over this. Silent Salt Cookie and Burning Spice Cookie are pretty amicable when it comes to their sharing. They'd rather not fight.
Meanwhile, Shadow Milk Cookie somehow manages to always get the most time with you? When the others are squabbling, he somehow gets to wisk you away.

Colby Brock x Reader
Tumblr media
Hey guys, this is my first story on Tumblr, I hope you enjoy! Feel free to leave any requests in the comments!
Colby broke up with you a couple years ago, you moved away and moved on. Now, two years after the break up, you return to LA with a new love and a new feisty attitude. Your best friend (let's call her Ash for the sake of simplicity) invites you to a party to welcome you back, she invites Sam but is it only Sam who shows up?
CW: cussing, cheating(?), no smut but a lot of talking about sex and sexual references, teasing, jealousy, 18+ only please
Unpacking was an obvious bore, you had some help from Theo, your boyfriend of one year and your best friend. Now, after a couple years you're returning to LA, a place with too many memories. Both good and bad. You're an influencer, popular for fashion and modelling content, LA is a big centre for pretty much everything. Why would you leave? We'll get into that later.
Ash's phone buzzes on the table, bringing you out from your trance.
"Make sure you get your best outfits out for tonight, Y/N." Ash teases. You roll your eyes, a sarcastic sigh escaping your lips.
"What did you do now?" You raise your eyebrow mockingly, hands on your hips.
"Just make sure you're fucking ready!" Ash's excited voice almost makes it hard for you to keep up with this annoyed facade.
"whose ready for what?" You feel hands snake around your waist and breath ghosts your neck. Ordinarily, it'd send goosebumps up your spine, make your heart race or even your cheeks flush. Not today. You put it off as the stress of moving into a new apartment but lying to yourself is still lying.
"You guys are going to be ready, dress nice later and meet me at my house around 9 o'clock." Ash smirks devilishly. Her demeanor is troublesome and worrying you, if you know your best friend you know she's planning something. Ash's plans are always stupidly insane.
Pulling out your phone, your eyes widen.
"it's already 7:30! Be at your house for 9?! I will not have enough time to get ready!" You scramble away from Theo, he pecks your cheek and you go with Ash to get ready at her place instead. She insisted in fact that Theo show up later and you guys have some 'girl time'.
Plonking yourself down on her bed, her personality switches. Serious; an emotion that she rarely displays.
"Right, I'm not overstepping here or anything but Theo... Do you actually like him?" She asks, if anything your best friend is honest but at this moment you're wishing she wasn't so observant.
"yes, of course." You scoff, lying. Although, is it a lie if you don't currently realise that it isn't true? Either way, she isn't accepting this answer.
"girl, he's literally the most vanilla boring man I have ever seen. He's blonde, wears the same clothes every day and likes boring shit. If he was a spice, he'd be flour. He's so different—"
"—different than what?" You bite back, interrupting Ash. She's unfazed, she's never cared about sharing her opinion and the sad thing is, she isn't wrong.
"than your other boyfriends. I mean, is the sex even exciting? When you were dating Colby, you used to call me everyday and rave about him so much that I even liked him. But Theo... I couldn't tell you one fact about Theo, he's more bland than rice." Honesty, but the sort you'd take the wrong way if it wasn't so true.
Once again, you knew deep down that she was right. You're dating a pretty boy, sure. But he was more like a shell, he wasn't necessarily strong willed and to be honest you didn't even know if he had any long term goals. The conversation continued and before you knew it, the time rolled around and Ash was giving you a blindfold as she led you along.
You decided on a low cut shirt, a pleated skirt and some fishnets (among other accessories). The tips of your black hair tickled your lower back as you walked downstairs.
"why are you wearing all black?" A voice asks, as you remove your blindfold you realise it's Theo.
"I thought it'd look sexy." You shrug, unbothered.
"you look like a weird goth." Theo says pointedly, this bothered you and you could tell you would make a scene but you bit your tongue and pressed on but you were still pissed off.
Many influencers and friends show up to the party, it's incredible and everyone's having a good time and it's nice to have the opportunity to introduce your friends to your boyfriend.
"Hey, Sam's here!" Ash yells over the music, you and Theo step away from the party to greet Sam, a very good old friend of yours. As you approach the front door, there's not one but two people. Sam ... And he brought Colby. Fuck.
You see Colby's eyes scan over your outfit, your curves, his eyes linger on your thighs and your cleavage and it makes your whole body hot. You bite your lip, it's a nervous tic but you can tell Colby thinks it's intentional.
Then, his eyes fall on your boyfriend and he smirks. He barely glances his way before his eyes pierce yours again.
"Y/N! Hey! Welcome back to LA, it's so good to see you again!" Sam smiles warmly and pulls you into a hug, you hug him back and smile brightly in return.
"hey Sam, I missed you so much." You reply before stepping away. "Sam, this is my boyfriend, Theo." You introduce your boyfriend and step aside so he can talk to Sam but he just gives him a weird look and mutters "hi."
"Theo..." You hear Colby whisper, snickering. Stepping forward, he gives you a look that could make any woman fold like a deck chair. "Hey, it's good to see you. You look sexy by the way." He smirks, he knows what he's doing and he's trying to get your boyfriend fired up.
You hit his arm and give him a futile warning look. Much to your dismay though, your boyfriend is unfazed by Colby. As toxic as it sounds, a reaction would've been nice, a little jealousy is hot sometimes.
"Wow... Is your boyfriend a cardboard cutout or something? Did you forget the voice box when you found him on the side of the road?" Colby teases you further and you glare at your ex.
"Colby..." You warn him again and he holds his hands up defensively. However, your boyfriend still doesn't care and it's really bothering you now. He has no spice to him, just like Ash said and the more you look, the more you see it.
Sam diffuses the situation although Colby is really making it his mission to get under Theo's skin.
The night continues without much drama, you're thankful but of course you couldn't have an easy ride. You veer off to grab yourself a drink, leaving Theo behind because honestly even you're getting bored of him now. He won't even dance with you, it's like he doesn't care about you at all.
You flick the bottle cap off the Smirnoff, you consider pouring it into a glass but you decide to just drink it straight out the bottle, it might make the night more bearable.
"woah, steady. I know your man has no personality but it's not like the alcohol is gonna give him any." You turn to the voice, Colby. Only now, can you really take in his appearance. All black, of course. But his rings, his chains, his tattoos... Fuck he looks so sexy— no, no he looks utterly repulsive... What is your brain doing? Your body is going against you and you're so frustrated.
"My man has plenty, thank you." You bite back, irritated. His proximity wasn't something you thought about until one step pinned you to the counter, his hands on either side of you.
"come on, he probably doesn't even last five seconds... No wait, I bet you guys haven't even gotten there yet." Colby reads your expressions and a sinister smirk spreads across his lips "wait he hasn't fucked you yet? Damn it's worse than I thought." His finger traces the hem of your shirt down to your cleavage, it makes your heart race as you try your best to pay as little attention to Colby or how your body responds to him.
"colby, move. You broke up with me, remember?" You glare at him, although let's be real that isn't what you want to do and honestly if you were still single it'd be a different story.
His fingers tug at your fishnets and you feel the cold metal of his rings touch your thighs. You intake a shaky breath and it's hard to keep your composure. "Oh, come on. You don't want me to go away, this is probably the most revved up you've felt in a year..." Colby smirks and leans into your ear, he tucks your hair behind it and you feel his breath ghosting your ear. "I mean... When you touch yourself, I bet you're still thinking about the way I used to do it to you."
Your heart races, goosebumps cover your body. If you don't admit it, it doesn't mean it isn't really happening and right now every fibre in your body wants Colby to bend you over that countertop and give you something you've been missing for the last two years but you keep up your walls.
"don't flatter yourself. It's been years, I've moved on." You bite but every time you bite, he bites harder.
Blue eyes bore into yours as he slides his hand up your thigh towards your skirt, your breath hitches. "Colby I'm in a relationship now, we can't." You want to sound strong but your voice falters, you don't want him to stop and he knows it.
"but you want to." He says pointedly. "Break up with him, I don't understand why you're with him." Colby speaks his mind but with his hands caressing your thighs, honestly it's hard to form a real sentence.
"He's nice." You say, feeling bad that the only thing you could think of was a basic, boring ass word.
"nice... You know why nice guys always finish last?" Colby asks, you shake your head and he smirks like a Cheshire cat "it's because their girlfriends never finish at all." His hands find your ass and he plays with the fishnets around it. "But don't worry..." He squeezes your ass and your fingers grip onto the countertop, you're almost under his spell "... I can always finish you off..." He whispers into your ear, his hands crawl up your body and it sends shivers up your spine.
Before anything in you can respond, the door to the kitchen flies open and your eyes widen.
Let me know if you guys want part two!

Oh I got a good one!
Remember AU prompt 5? Well Imagine all the other fallen take an interest in the reader and they all begin fighting over them?
Request Prompt #33 - ✦💓
You couldn't be in any more of a pickle now. Apparently, you've figured out since we last left off from, that this is a seal dimension. A dimension specifically created by the witches in order to contain some very specific beings. And to be honest? You were currently considering just crumbling on the spot from anxiety. Because out of all the cookies you've seen here( aka, like, five you think?) you're the only one that's normal sized! How fun. ( Disclaimer: it is not fun, you are fucking terrified. ) You can already hear two of them fighting, well, so far it's only verbal so at least you aren't in too much danger. All you have to do is stay hidden... stay hidden... stay hidden. You open your eyes, the forest around you has changed again. You also could no longer see the other two cookie's arguing, you're pretty sure that their names had been Burning Spice and Mystic Flour? You weren't sure. But you did know that they were arguing about you. Or more specifically, how you got here. You sneak out from your former hiding place, the forest had definitely changed your location. It just... did that sometimes, that's why it was so easy for you to get lost. Whenever you hid from something in the shadows there was a good chance that the forest around you was going to change again. " Oh I'm terribly sorry for the wait, little star." You heard a voice echo through the forest. You froze up- what the heck forest? Weren't these strange teleports supposed to get you out of danger? I mean, that's what they did before, right? You were immediately seize with a gasp by a large hand made out of shadows, it slithered up speedily into the tree where it deposited you into the equally large hand of a certain individual. You cast your gaze up into the gigantic eyes of Shadow Milk Cookie, which stared at you with interest and amusement. In hindsight, maybe you should have stopped hiding in the shadows. " Aw, what's the matter little star?" He cooed, poking at your cheek. " Are you not happy to see me? That's very disheartening, you know?" He spoke in that kind of tone that you'd use with a baby or a small animal, you know the one. " I don't think I'd be particularly happy to see any of you." You retorted, earning a cackle from the gigantic jester. You knew more about the beasts than you did when you arrived here after all, and you knew that Shadow Milk was basically embodied deceit so you barely trusted a word he said. And yet, he seemed to have a genuine interest in your safety... If not only for his own personal goals. At least, that was your reasoning as you figured that if he was the one triggering the teleports, then he'd at least be looking out for you, right? You heard him sigh. " You know, you seem to love making things more complicated for yourself, hm? Now all the others know about your existence within the seal, and that's making things more rough for you, riiight?" He drew out that 'i' sound just to tease you, but you knew there was at least some truth to what he'd said. You nodded in reply, flinching at the sharp grin he gave you. " Welll~ It turns out I have just the solution for that! If you stick with me, then you'll be safe! No more of that 'running away' business." He offered, but you knew there'd be a catch. " But! In return... You have to help me get free and back out into the world, 'kay?" You hesitated, you'd doom the world as you knew it if you let him out, right? Did the world out there even exist as you knew it now? You have no clue as to how much time has passed since you zapped yourself in here. Shadow Milk was looking at you expectantly, and you didn't want to find out what would happen to you if you rejected his offer. " O... okay, I will."

A Shire Yuletide
Summary: Reader accompanied the dwarves on the quest to retake their home and now its their first Yuletide after being home and they invited Thorin and his family for the holiday. Non-canon compliant in the sense that none of them died in BotFA. Happy Holidays folks
Pairing: Thorin x Gender Neutral reader.
Word Count:
Tumblr media
It had been a long shot when you asked Gandalf to help you send Thorin your letter, and yet he'd came and the rest of his family were coming, too. Thorin had been the first to arrive, much to your delight, and the two of you had caught up on your friendship, picking up where you'd left off. The truth was that you missed Thorin, much more than a mere friend, but you couldn't tell him that. He didn't see you like that. No, you were just friends, trauma bonded over a fight for their mountain kingdom that'd left many of them wounded. He was missing this morning, a short note saying he was going to take a walk was resting on your nightstand along with a hot cup of cinnamon spice tea. He'd remembered. You had a laundry list of things to do to set up for the holiday festivities since you had both dwarves and hobbits to house and feed, so you quickly washed up and got to it.
You couldn't imagine what was going through his head as he came in to the kitchen. You knew you were a sight, your arms elbow deep in the mixing bowl, flour handprints down the front of your apron and even the side of your pants because honestly, you forgot you were wearing an apron 90 percent of the time. Your hair was in your eyes and falling out of the quick hairstyle you'd tossed it into to keep it out of the dough.
"What's all this?" Thorin asked from where he leaned against the doorway, gesturing to your general being.
"It's Yuletide baking," you said as if it should be obvious. "I have chocolate crinkles in the oven, gingerbread cooling on the rack, molasses dough in the fridge chilling--and no that is not the same thing as gingerbread even though they are VERY similar in ingredients-"
"And what are you currently making?" he asked, peeking over your shoulder into the bowl. His breath was hot on your neck and you shivered. When had he moved over here?
"Th-this is the experimental cookie," you said, your voice wavering from his proximity.
He chuckled, the sound low and deep in his throat. "And what is so experimental about it if you're following a recipe?"
"Well, the experiment isn't the cookie itself, you see, it's whether the family will like it. I've never made them before, and I've already botched it up by putting everything in the mixing bowl because I was tired and not quite paying attention to where it said mix the egg whites separately to form stiff peaks, like a meringue I'd guess, but..." you trailed off, realizing that you were rambling. "I'm sorry, I'm doing it again, aren't I?"
His brows furrowed. "Stop apologizing." He reached out to swipe some flour off your cheek, following through to tuck a strand of hair behind your ear. The pad of his thumb was rough against your skin and you held your breath as his gaze roamed over your face. "Your hair will never stay back like that."
"I just needed it out of my face," you murmured.
"May I?" he asked.
You tilted your head at him. "May you...?"
"Take care of it for you."
You shrugged. "I'm fine with how it is, but if it bothers you that much, then sure."
He had a small smile that you saw out of the corner of your eye as he moved behind you. You felt a gentle tug before your hair was cascading down around your shoulders. His motions were so incredibly gentle, nothing at all like when your mother used to do your hair as a child. He was silent, focusing on your hair. A shiver went down your spine as his fingers grazed the back of your neck.
"Are you nervous?" you asked, trying to fill the silence. It weighed heavily, and you weren't quite sure why. Silence between you two had been mostly comfortable these days, but this silence was intense.
"About our families meeting? Should I be?"
You could practically hear the smirk in his voice. "Aunt Tilda is very... let's just say she doesn't always take to other's opinions. Cousin Mathilde will try to steal the cutlery. I'm more worried about how they'll be to your family. It's..." you trailed off, trying to pick up the thread again. "We're not very conventional."
"Perhaps hobbits and dwarves should mix more often. We're not that much different," he said, tying your braid with a ribbon. "There."
Your hand came up to stroke the tail of the braid hanging over your shoulder. "It's better than I could have done."
"Is there anything you need help with?" he asked, suddenly sounding unsure of himself. It was cute. "I may not be good at it, but my hands are yours."
"Can you put the kettle on? I'll finish this up and we can break for tea."
You could see the relief flood through him. "Cinnamon spice?"
"As much as that is my favorite tea, I think we should take the holiday blend out to make sure it's still good for tomorrow's breakfast. What time are your nephews getting here?"
Almost as if on cue, the door to your hobbit hole swung open nearly hitting the wall.
"Uncle Thorin! Your favorite nephew has arrived!" Kili called from the front hall.
"Yes, and thank you for the introduction, brother," Fili said.
Thorin sighed, but you caught the smile tugging at his lips as he went out to greet them. "You two better not be destroying the house. We are guests here."
You bit your lip. You knew he'd have to return to Erebor. That was his home, but still, part of you wondered if maybe, just maybe, he might find his home with you. You weren't fit to be anything resembling a ruler of the dwarves, that much you knew. You'd tried life under the mountain for a week after the battle had subsided and you waited for Thorin to recover. It was cold and not at all cozy. There was very little sunlight in most places, and everything echoed in the cavernous halls. You heard every groan of pain he made from down the hall, and you got little sleep worrying about whether he'd recover. But he had. He was almost completely himself, aside from the slight limp he had, but even that seemed to be getting better. You'd returned home fairly soon after his fever broke. There hadn't been a place for you in his court, and you knew it.
Peeking around the corner, you spied on the three of them hugging each other, a clap on the back and a good natured laugh as they caught up. You wondered if Thorin felt as out of place here in your home as you did in his.
Kill saw you first, coming over and hugging you so hard your feet left the ground. "Madtubirzul! It's been too long."
"Thank you for inviting us," Fili added, presenting you with a bouquet of flowers that looked an awful lot like the flowers from your neighbor's winter garden.
"Please, you are all doing me the favor of taking the attention off of me," you replied, taking the proffered flowers. "They won't stop asking me about my time under the mountain and I just want a relaxing holiday."
You pulled out a vase for the flowers, setting them on the table in the dining room. "You can put your things in the second bedroom on the left. Dwarves on the left, hobbits on the right."
"And where's Uncle Thorin sleeping?" Kill asked, elbowing his Uncle.
"On the left with the rest of you sorry lot," he said, smacking Kili's hand away.
"Well, I'll let you boys settle in," you murmured, returning to your baking.
The sound of the kettle pulled you out of your baking trance, You wiped your brow with your sleeve. Thorin pulled the kettle off the stove and began to prepare the teapot as you put your last tray of cookies on the cooling rack.
He handed you a cup, expecting you to sit with the rest of them at the table, but instead you walked outside, choosing to sit down in the grass. It was cool, and you needed the break from the heat of the oven. You rested the teacup on your knee as you laid back into the grass and shut your eyes just for a moment.
"Lanselê," Thorin murmured, taking the cup of tea off your knee.
You opened your eyes, realizing with a start that you'd fallen asleep. "Butter and biscuits!" you cursed. "How long was I out for?"
"An hour," he replied.
You dug the heels of your hands into your eyes. "Well now my schedule is all out the window. I won't get anything done in time."
"You have three able-bodied dwarves in your home. Put us to work."
"Thorin, you are my guests, I cannot ask you to do things," you groaned.
"I'm more than just a guest," he said, a hint of annoyance in his voice.
"You're right, you're a King. I really can't ask you to do domestic chores," you replied, standing up and brushing off your pants.
"That's not what I meant."
Your brow furrowed. "Thorin, I don't really have time in my already ruined schedule to argue semantics." You marched back into your kitchen and began to pull out the goose and start to brine it so that you could cook it the next morning.
Kili was the first to pop into the war zone that was the kitchen. "Can I help with anything?"
"Want to peel some potatoes?" you asked, pushing the bucket of potatoes and peeling knife towards him.
He nodded and got to work, his eyes flicking to you every couple of seconds.
"What?" you snapped.
"Your braid," he said.
"Thorin did it for me earlier."
"And the bead on the ribbon?"
"What be-" you looked down to see a small wooden bead that the ribbon had been strung through. It had a wide, ornate, almost X shape carved into it.
Kill laughed from where he sat on a stool peeling. "You have no idea what that means, do you?"
"Should I?" you raised a brow at him.
Kili shrugged. "If I were going to braid your hair I'd at least would have told you the importance of it first. That's what I did with Tauriel."
You narrowed your eyes at him, pulling your arm out of the goose's carcass. You washed your hands, wiping them on your apron to dry them. Thinking better of it, you removed your apron and left it on the kitchen table before stomping off to find a dwarf.
He was in your library, sitting at your desk. Reading YOUR book manuscript.
"Do you normally read other people's things? I don't know how you do things in Erebor, but you aren't under the mountain anymore," you snapped.
His eyes flicked up to you. He held the book up, waving it towards you. "Is this how you see me?"
"What are you talking about?"
He opened the book to the page he was on and began to read, "There were a gaggle of dwarves in my home, but then one arrived unlike any I had ever seen before. He was incredibly handsome, but his eyes were ice."
"Well, you didn't make a very good first impression," you grumbled.
Thorin began to get up.
"Thorin," you pleaded.
With a sigh, he sat back down.
You took a tentative step towards him. "What does this bead mean?"
He blushed and looked out your window. "It's just a bead."
"Kill doesn't seem to think so."
He muttered something under his breath.
"Thorin," you said, sitting on your desk. "Why did you come?"
"Because you invited me." He looked up at you, his eyes tired. You hadn't noticed it since he'd gotten there, or maybe you had but you'd just explained it away with the fact that you just hadn't seen him in a while and people change. "Why did you invite me?"
"Because I missed you," you admitted.
"We wrote all the time, but its not the same, is it?" he said, placing a hand on your knee.
You placed your hand on top of his. "Stay."
"What?" he asked.
"Are you happy as King Under the Mountain?" you asked. "Because... I think that you've seen too much of the world to be content to hide away in a cave again. I think that it's nice to know that you have a home to go back to..." you took a deep breath to choose your next words very carefully. You stroked your thumb along the side of his hand. "But I don't think home has ever been a place for you, has it?"
"It can be a very lonely mountain," he murmured, squeezing your knee.
"So stay," you begged.
"I can't. I have to take care of my people."
"But who will take care of you?" you turned a critical eye on him, taking in everything about his appearance. "You look exhausted. You've lost weight. You didn't reply to me for months. I'm worried about you."
"You don't have to worry about me," he said, a slight edge to his voice.
"But I do!" You grabbed his shoulders and shook him. "Listen, you stubborn dwarf, you need to take care of yourself, and sometimes what you think you wanted isn't what you actually want once you get it."
"What could you possibly know about that?"
"Everything!" You stood, exasperated. You were crying tears of frustration at this point. "All I wanted to do was get home and now that I'm home, all I want is to be with you."
Thorin stood and cupped your cheeks in his hands, brushing the tears off them.
"Stop comforting me when I'm cross with you," you sniffed.
He rested his forehead against yours. "Dwarves braid the hair of their consort."
You rested your hands on his chest. "By hobbit standards, we've been courting since you all asked me to go on the longest walk of my life."
Leaning forward, you kissed him. It was soft at first, as if he was afraid that you'd pull back and regret it. When you didn't, he slanted his mouth against yours and sunk his fingers into the base of the braid at your neck, wrapping his arm around your back and pulling you flush against him. He had lost weight, but he was still so strong under your hands. You kissed him back, running your tongue over his bottom lip. He grunted against your mouth.
Incessant knocks sounded at the front door and you reluctantly pulled back, a slight grimace on your face. "That would be the hobbits."
"Well, I guess I should meet my future family," Thorin said with a grin.
"I never said yes," you replied.
He deflated a bit.
"But you also never asked," you said pointedly. You paused in the doorway. "Tomorrow, after dinner, let's go for a walk."
Thorin smiled. "A walk would be great."

Thinking ab Pavia and his sweet tooth! He def takes his gf/partner out for gelato dates. What do you think his reaction would be if his gf made him a homemade dessert? Cute idea that maybe he’s been like “hmm where has she been going these past few days, she comes home late” and then he walks into the house and it is revealed she has been taking baking classes to make him something he’d like ╰(*´︶`*)╯♡

fem!reader x pavia || baking desserts ::
hLEPDM THIS IS SO CUTE ARGHGGJ making cookies for my love, I stir and mix ‼️ ty for requesting buty beloved
Tumblr media
The kitchen is typically a cozy space that you found yourself drowning your thoughts out. A space adorned with the warmth of flickering oven light and the comforting hum of a mixer. There are shelves lined with various ingredients—flour, sugar, cocoa, and an assortment of spices—creating a vibrant palette for culinary creations. Countertops are adorned with mixing bowls, spoons, and trays of freshly baked goods cooling off, infusing the room with a sense of anticipation. The atmosphere is filled with joy, as you meticulously prepare his favorite treats, sharing not only delightful sweets but also warmth, love, and a sense of home.
You recall a time during one of the many dates you had together, Pavia would mark a question that highlighted at the back of your head which initially started this whole ordeal.
" You know, amore. I wish to try more than one flavour.. If I could, I'd bring you the finest desserts of Piemonte. "
More than one dessert? He deserves it. He works hard, day in, day out. So you made it a personal goal to set yourself a deadline to create a few sweets that can be savoured to share between the two of you. Cupcakes, Panna Cotta, Cannoli, Tiramisu.. Oh my, you knew he'd adore Tiramisu.
Weakly, you picked up the spoonful of batter and took a deep inhale of the sweet aroma that infiltrated your mind with a warm sense of joy. You knew what you were doing.
The recipes you could learn from the basic cookbook didn't offer you much help, but you did the best you can. The classes you took, though.. God, it helped a lot. From the moment you started, from the final touches you added to the batter as of right now; you can't help but admire how far your skills had advanced throughout the months. The skilful use of your fingers pinching and twisting the desserts to create a beautiful swirl, the mix of saltiness and sweetness drizzled into every bite one would take inside of the soft filling; you considered to think of yourself to feel as though you were truly a chef.
Even so, you'd ponder in the back of your head if he'd always wonder where on earth you'd be biding your time. That the worry settles in through the depths of his mind that he can't help but weigh the feeling of you potentially.. distancing yourself from him? Questions would probably plague his mind, had he thought, what did he do? Was it something he said to you before? You planned to explain all of it later, but you knew him well. You knew how he'd overthink quite so often.
Even if you'd been late going back home, it's all worth it.. It's thought that counts, right? Regardless, Pavia always told you that any act of thoughtfulness bespeaks a profound commitment, an investment of time, skill, and meticulous attention to detail, all orchestrated to fashion a sensory delight. So the thought of your worries of him being hurt in the process of your surprise was suppressed at the back of your head. Whatever though.. You knew he never had the time to do fluffy baking with you, but what if you made these yourself? What's more homey than to have a loving girl such as yourself welcome a tired man back to his safe space? A serene thought that make your head swirl with all sorts of concerts that spiralled down into something so deeply fuzzy and admirable..
" Hm.. More sugar? " You asked, quietly mumbling to yourself. Adding more wouldn't spoil the flavour, right?
" He won't mind. " You chuckled thereafter.
The concoction of these delectable treats isn’t merely a culinary endeavor; it’s a soulful expression, an artful symphony that harmonizes flavors, textures, and aromas to compose an edible testament of love. The careful selection of ingredients, the rhythmic blending, and the transformative process within the oven embody the care and consideration invested in the act. Or, that's what you would like to think anyway.
Yet, a soft click ticked in the chains of the door. Maleficent who firmly guarded themself near the entrance let out a quiet whimper that had you peeking your head to wonder if that is who you truly think it is? But the moment you looked down, you realised how dirty you'd become with the flour staining your apron and hands.
" [ Name ] ! I'm home! You're here, no? " Pavia's firm voice had you suddenly unfasten the knot on the back of your apron, throwing it elsewhere before you quickly checked the time on the antique clock at the back. Shit, what time was it? Did Pavia arrive before 10?
You stared at the soft ticks chipping away at the time, noticing how the vintage wallpaper that started to show marks of the cracks wearing in slowly.
You made a mental note to make sure to fix that later.
" [ Name! ] "
Oh, right. You still have time to clear everything away before—
A head slowly peeled out of the corner, the soft licks of Andrea heaping at bare skin of your ankles make you uncontrollably giggle as Pavia followed your voice into the kitchen.
" Something does smell wonderfully sweet. Dear cucciola.." He warmly pressed a soft kiss on your forehead. Suddenly, you witnessed him pause in his tracks to address the sudden situation caving into his mind, trying to piece in every piece of the missing puzzle engraved in his brain.
" But what the hell is this mess, though?.. " His eyes darted towards the counter that littered with sprinkles full of flour and icing peppered across the edge of your fingertips. The stern tone made you quietly snort, immediately casting your gaze away from him.
" N-Nothing, I didn't expect you to come home so early. "
" Likewise. " He stated, bluntly, still taking a good look around the kitchen to see how your quiet, timid self leaned against the counter-top in a sudden weary feeling of dread weighing down in your stomach.
" Ah.. "
You opened your mouth to speak, yet, you couldn't help but stare at him contently for a brief second. How on earth can you possibly tell him that you'd have been spending your time trying to learn how to make simple desserts yet also complex patterns to make them look somewhat luxurious ? You knew he loved the fancy food, but always thought it was a waste to enjoy something once and never have it again. So why not make them so he doesn't have to necessarily waste his money on fancy desserts? Even though this man made thousands.
" Ha.. Alright, you got me. " You raised your hands. Pavia raised his eyebrows at this with the quiet smile lingering in the back.. " You ruined the surprise though.. I expected you to be back home much more later than expected.. "
" Got off the job early today, amore. But, do tell.." He paused, almost in disbelief from the way you seemed to mark his eyes darting left and right to his kitchen being in somewhat of a complete mess.
" Are you.. baking? " He murmured, taking your warm, icing dipped hands into his own cold palms without even having to look at you. You knew Pavia wasn't too mad, (thankfully), but it made you feel quite.. appreciated in some way. Like you could almost tell how he adored the way your smaller figure could even muster such a task to make something as adorable as this?
On the other side of the table, though, it was purely kept clean for the sake of showcasing the desserts in order of height. You remember delicately choosing which place to put each one of them in, from descending or ascending order? Whichever never mattered to you, but now you think about it, arranging them into groups that settled with each other in colours would've been the more suitable order.
" A-Ah..Ha. Well, yeah. I just thought I might do something nice for you. You mentioned quite a while back you wanted to try something new, right? "
" Yes, but I never thought you'd take it quite.. literally. Jesus f*cking Christ, [ Name. ] " The man hastily pressed several kisses against your knuckles, tasting the icing into his own lips before he chuckled quietly to kiss your own. You never had a chance to even say anything before he started confining heated kisses into your face and arms.
" Why do you do such things? What did I ever do to deserve this, amore? " He chuckled softly the moment he pulled away, leaning into your ear to have his warm breath tickle the sensitive area within you. It's as if one part of him felt so relieved that you weren't up to some shady business. He trusted you, wholeheartedly. But could one possibly blame him for having sudden doubts when he thought you might be slowly trying to leave?
"Ha, don't answer that. Your actions speak so dearly.. And your eyes speak the truth of your devotion for me, huh? " And he remembered. He always remembers. All of this was for him. So if you did this, there's no other human or arcanist, be it man or woman or person, who would ever dare to replace you.
This is all your work. Your art. And Pavia guiltily admired every bit of it.
He murmured praises between shaky breathes, unable to stop peppering your lips with eager kisses that may leave you spiralling into madness full of eternal joy. But then, he sighed to let out a quiet mumble, looking directly at you in the face. " Was this why you were so—..?"
" Distant? Yes.. I took the remaining week to partake in some..uh— classes. Sorry.. I didn't mean to come off across as me trying to lea—" Your words, instantly cut off by the touch starved puppy of a man pressing his own body against yours; lips latching onto one another as his previous kisses continued to spill tales of how desperately in love he is with you.
" Jesus Christ, Pavia. " You closed your eyes..
" You did this for me, huh? " He trembled. The warmth of your cheeks heated up, his body starting to succumb into the rising temperatures that combated against the bitter coldness that sunk into his skin like ant bites.
You nodded, sheepishly. The mess was an embarrassment to say the least, but by the gods, if you could, you would describe how utter gratitude wafted over his face, eyes glimmering under the light of the bulbs that flicked a couple of times then and there. He didn't care about the mess anymore, but what he couldn't take his eyes off were the humble sweets you took your own time, money, and effort into making purely for the sake of his satisfaction.
And by the heavenly gods, was he satisfied.
" Come.. Let us clean this space and enjoy your creations, my dear. You truly spent this week to devote it purely for me..? " He still spoke in disbelief, unable to contain the inner childish words that wanted to latch onto this woman and giggle around like a boy that just found a few cents off the ground to buy an ice cream.
You guided yourself to rinse off the icing and batter staining your hands before you sighed to turn around to see your own beloved fawn over at how adorably cute these small treats were. Some were easy, some were as difficult as they looked. Andrea pressed their paws against the counter, equally as hungry as he had looked. The similarities between the two determined the reason as to why you'll forever stick with him and his kin. You are truly his angel, and for this simple gesture, Pavia promises, mentally, that he'd repay all of this back tenfold.

hobie brown x fem!reader
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
You always loved how nice the kitchen smelled whenever you made something. The way all the different spices would blend perfectly and create an aroma almost more mouthwatering than the food itself.
Today you were baking cookies, the smell of the fresh gingerbread filling your nose in the most alluring way. You had to stop yourself from eating the whole batch by yourself. You've already sneaked two and you'd feel bad if Hobie didn't get anything.
And as if he knew you were thinking of him, you felt his large hands wrap around you from behind, before you felt his full lips press a kiss against the side of your head. His lips lingered there for a while before he pulled back, allowing you to turn your head to give him a real kiss. He accepted it gladly. His eyes looked bloodshot and swollen from the nap he had taken.
His hand reached to the bowl of already baked cookies as you started to flour your kitchen counter in preparation for the next batch. You threw the batter onto the table before you started to roll at it. "They good?" you asked when you saw Hobie take another cookie from the bowl. He nodded with a small smile, still a little drowsy from his nap.
You hadn't even noticed it had started raining until the music from the old CD player in your living area stopped playing. The smooth sounds of Sade were replaced by the soft pelts of rain that hit outside. "V'got something for you," you heard Hobie mutter next to you before he disappeared back into your room. He returned just as you placed the last tray of biscuits in the oven. When you turned to him, smiling in expectance and excitement, he pulled out a jewel case, turning the face to you so you could see what CD it contained.
You shrieked in happiness once you saw what it was, wrapping your arms around Hobies's waist. He smiled like a madman, staring down at your face as you beamed in excitement. "Where'd you get this?!" you asked, taking the case from him to read the back. "I have my ways," was all he said in reply. "Put it in, I'm gonna reheat some leftovers for us," you said. The soft meowing at Hobie's socked feet stopped him in his tracks, and he bent down to pick up the blue-grey shorthair kitten, or your "daughter" as you'd always put it.
Soon Solange's sickeningly sweet and warm voice filled the room, once again drowning out the sound of the rain that still poured outside.
Fall in your ways, so you can crumble Fall in your ways, so you can sleep at night Fall in your ways, so you can wake up and rise...
You came to the couch were Hobie lied silently. Your cat, who you affectionally refer to as your baby, lied curled up snugly next to him on the small couch. The sight made you smile, considering that at first Hobie had been reluctant about meeting your cat, convinced that she wouldn't like him, and now the two were thicker than thieves. You softly used your socked foot to nudge Hobie's side, handing him his food when he rose from the couch to move into a sitting position.
You moved to sit down on the other end of the already small couch, and Hobie, being the touchy person he was, decided that that was much too far away from him for his liking. So he extended his arm to you and practically pulled you into your chest, causing you to hastily grab at the plate of food you still had grasped in your hand. By now your cat had disappeared into another corner of the apartment, having been woken up by the commotion.
The night ended with the two of you fast asleep, you still buried happily in his tight embrace as the TV softly replayed reruns of your favorite show. Hobie has never been one to spend a lot of his time watching shows, trying to follow the unnecessarily difficult plotlines, but he always watched them with you because he knew how much you enjoyed them. He reckons he'd do pretty much anything if it made you happy.

Chapter 3 - Empanadas Chilenas - Chile
These are popular during the month of September when Fiestas Patrias occurs. During Easter, beef isn't used for religious reasons, and substitutions like eggs, seafood, and cheese are used. Common ingredients are beef (not during Easter), seafood, onions, hard boiled eggs, raisins, cheeses, and olives. Garlic, cumin, paprika, and pepper are great spices to accompany the filling. The pastry is made from white flour made of wheat.

Patrol tonight was going to suck. Gwen had cancelled at the last minute, because of a family crisis at home. Miles was home in bed, sicker than you'd ever seen him before. Peter was busy working on a paper and studying for finals for school, so that just left you, the one with no other obligations to keep you busy. You felt sorry for all of them.
You were up on a tall building as you surveyed your surroundings. It had been hours, and the city had been quiet for once. Nothing looked or sounded out of the ordinary for now. You were kind of sorta hoping something small might happen. Small enough so you weren't bored or really threatened.
Sure as shit, it was as if you had just manifested something to happen.
A scream alerted you to the south, and you darted off towards the noise. As you got closer, you heard metal trashcans banging together, a loud snarl, and what sounded like a fight. You got to the edge of the roof and looked down to see a man in a mask and a skin tight black and red suit. He was throwing a punch at a thug, only for the guy to pull out a knife and growl at him. The masked man leapt back and ducked as he was lunged at, then you heard the unmistakable sound of a web thwipping out and hitting skin.
You squinted and saw webs all over the guy, which threw you off. When you looked closer at the man, you saw he had a spider on his chest. This guy was a Spider-Folk? Why hadn't you ever seen him before? None of the others had ever mentioned him.
"I suggest you give it up, mi amigo."
You froze for a second, then hid behind a wall. That voice sounded exactly like Jake's voice, AND he was speaking Spanish! Your heart began to race wildly in your chest.
"Come on! Stop trying to stab me, you're embarrassing yourself." The man in the mask continued as you heard a punch, then another crash of trash cans. You heard him laugh, and it was almost the same, but distinctly different at the same time. Almost like he was enjoying this too much.
"Asshole! I'll fucking kill you, you Spider-Man rip off!"
"Haha, yeah right. I’ve heard that one before." You could hear the cockiness in his voice. It really sounded like Jake to you, and you needed another look, before you got angry about it.
Peeking over the ledge again, you made your suit darken a bit to blend in better with the shadows. You watched this man beat the snot out of the thug. Admittedly, you thought that was incredibly hot. Jake in a Spider-Folk outfit, smashing a guy's face in and covered in blood, and now he was tying him up. The guy was unconscious, up near the entrance of the alleyway.
"Alright. I know someone's up there. I can hear you breathing. And you smell like flowers." The masked man said as he looked directly up at you. You squeaked and immediately shrank flat to the ground.
"Are you seriously trying to hide after I just said- Oh forget it. I'm coming up there!" The man shouted up at you and you scrambled to your feet and backed away from the ledge.
Of all fucking nights to be alone, and this fucking happens!
"Hey there!" You suddenly heard his voice from behind you. You shrieked and scooted back again. You didn't even see or hear him come up.You always saw them coming, but not him.
"Jesus fucking Christ!" You gasped as he hopped down and stared at you. He was staying still, arms crossed as he chuckled at your little scare.
"Whoa, I am sorry. I won't hurt you. I've seen you in the news outlets around town. You're that Galaxy Spider, aren't you?" The man asked, and you squinted at him again.
Jake knew that information. Was he trying to play stupid with you? Was he trying to pretend you couldn't recognize him in that get up?
"Uh, yeah." You almost sounded snide about it, and he held his hands up in defence.
"Hey, I am not one of those weirdo fan boys, okay? I'm just some guy with spider powers. I'm trying to help out while I’m in town."
In town?
In.
Fucking.
Town!?
Had he been just hiding here in New York this whole god damned time, just watching you?
What the fuck?
"Cut the crap, Jake Lockley. I know it's you!" You suddenly snapped at him as you straightened up. You were pissed.
"Huh? That's not my name-"
"Bullshit, Lockley! How could you keep this—-" You were just barely under a yelling tone as you ripped off your mask, mostly just so he could see just how angry you were. You motioned quickly to his suit, hands going up and down in fast motions. He was shocked, staring at your eyes as you seethed with rage.
"—-This whole Spider-Persona a secret from me!? Like we've been dating for three fucking years, and you know I'm a Spider, and not once did it occur to you to tell me that you also happen to be a fucking Spider!?" By now you were shaking with anger, trying desperately not to activate your webbing with how hard you were clenching your fists. You wanted to punch him so bad.
"Okay, lady, I'm not who you think I am, okay? My name is not Jake Lockley. My name is Miguel O'Hara." The man that claimed his name was Miguel, slowly took his mask off.
That didn't help anything at all, because there was his face.
His stupid, perfect, fucking face, looking just like Jake's. You were so blinded by the hurt Jake had caused, you didn't believe this man, even if he looked younger, and kind of beefier. Okay, a lot beefier. And taller, too?
"See?" He tried to continue, but you pointed at him, sticking your finger right into the center of his chest.
"You look just like him!" You hissed and the man pinched the bridge of his nose and hissed back. His hair was shorter, a bit of a mess, and he had red eyes that almost seemed to glow.
"But I am not him."
"Same face. Same voice. You speak Spanish." You said as he rolled his eyes.
"Are his eyes red?" Miguel countered, and you dropped your finger and looked into his eyes. He was right. He had red eyes.
"Uh, no… They glow white sometimes… Never red, uh, unless he's been hitting the green, if ya know what I mean." You sheepishly replied, then remembered people could have contacts.
"But how do I know these aren't fancy contacts?"
"You don't, but I can assure you they aren't. It's part of my Spider powers, just like you can summon lights and stand on them." He replied and you huffed. Okay, point taken, but you were still not fully trusting this man yet.
"Let me see your left arm. Jake has a tattoo." You demanded, and Miguel got right to work on removing his glove and rolling up his sleeve. The first thing you noticed, was the weird looking watch he had. Jake preferred a different kind of watch and you never saw him remove it. Then you saw all the scars Miguel had. They all were in different places then the ones on Jake. Then you noticed the forearm, and there wasn't a tattoo of hieroglyphics there.
"See? I am not him." Miguel again protested to being your ex. That was when you noticed his hands. His nails specifically. They were fucking claws, and longer than yours! He noticed you looking, and he put his gloves back on fairly quickly.
"That's… That's crazy. I guess I owe you an apology…" You quietly replied while looking down.
"Oh course you owe him an apology!" A small feminine voice spoke up. Miguel covered his watch and turned away.
"Lyla, shh!"
"Lyla?" You were confused. Was that his handler?
"Uh, she's my personal AI assistant." Miguel explained after he turned off the watch light.
"Oh… Like Mr. Stark's Jarvis?"
"Uh, yes. Like Jarvis."
"Whoa… That's actually pretty cool. I am sorry, Miguel. It's just… Nevermind. I'm sorry." You said as you slumped against the wall to catch your breath and slow your heart rate down.
"Whoever this Jake guy is, I don't like him. He sounds like he messed you up good." Miguel said with a sour looking face.
"He… He did." You looked away and reached up to move the hood down and scratch at your neck where the fastener was.
Miguel looked down at his watch, and sighed. Lyla was glaring at him and motioning towards your general direction while mouthing, 'Do something.'
"Hey, uh… Wanna talk about it? This is a judgement free zone." He offered as he leaned against the wall and waited.
You glanced at him and then at your feet. Why not? He seemed nice enough to you.
"Sure, I guess." You huffed and crouched down to stretch your body, then sat on the cold concrete. Miguel got down and sat with his legs crossed, his hands resting on his remarkably large thighs.
"So, uh… Jake is my ex boyfriend. We were dating inconsistently for three years…"
"Inconsistently?"
"Yeah, well, about that… He disappeared a lot. Never told me where he went, or what he did. He would often show up covered in blood from stab wounds and gun shots. I would help him out, then the next morning he was all better, like nothing had happened the night before. He always refused to tell me what had happened and why he was healing so fast."
"That sounds a lot like a super powered vigilante hero to me."
"I know, right? So, anyway, he would get irritated with me every time I asked about it, break up with me, then leave for long periods of time. He would always come crawling back and expected to just walk right back into my life like he didn't just break my heart and run away." You huffed in frustration as you ran your hands through your hair.
You heard a low growl come from Miguel. When you looked up at him, he looked pissed. Both of his fists were clenched, his jaw tight, and his red eyes somehow brighter.
"What a shocking coward. Here you are, busting your ass off for this city to protect it, and there he is, being a selfish prick. He's clearly using you as a comfort door mat, without thinking about your feelings."
"That's how I feel." You whispered back as your voice cracked.
"Look, that's not healthy. You're out here doing your best, and you don't deserve to be walked all over like that. Where is this idiot?" He asked as he stood up and cracked his knuckles.
"He left to go to London. Said he had some undercover gig to do, and it was a long haul sting. Wouldn't tell me anything else, aside from the fact he gave me a mailbox address." You explained. Miguel squinted at you.
"That's cold. How long ago was this?"
"About four months now, I think. He did it on our anniversary, actually." At this point your eyes were slowly leaking. You were trying so hard not to sob.
"He did not! That's horrible… And he hasn't contacted you since?"
"Nope." You said with a small sniffle. Miguel leaned forward ever so slightly.
"Damn, girl. Forget about that guy. Live your life. You're too good to be tied down to such a loser like that." Miguel remarked. You looked up at him and smiled. It was weird, but he was nice and very supportive for just meeting him. He wasn't being a perv or a creep either.
Oh, but he did look like he wanted to beat Jake up. That was a very pleasant image to think about. Watching two hot look- a- likes kick each other's asses. You would be lying if you said you were rooting for Jake.
"Thank you. I wish Jake would have seen it that way. I'm still living like I was. Like I am waiting for him to drop in at any moment to fuck up my flow. Though, this is the longest he's been gone, so it's easier to believe he's not coming back, even when he said he was." You explained as you leaned back against the wall and sighed heavily. With a quick wipe of your arm, you removed the tears from your cheeks and eyes.
"Don't let him have that power over you. You're a treasured wonder of the world. You have adoring fans, and people look up to you. Any man that is with you , should cherish the time they get with you. He should be worshipping you."
"That's hard to do, I… I just miss him. He was always so good to me when he was around…"
"Well, the man isn't treating you right now, is he? He should have told you what his deal was, if he has powers, and what they are. He should have told you if he's a superhero, a vigilante, or whatever the shock he is. If he loved you, really loved you, he wouldn't have dumped you in the first place."
"I, uh, I guess?"
"No, not you guess. If he loved you, he would have been open about everything. Tell you what he was doing, who he really is, where he was going and for how long. It's not fair that he knew what you were doing, yet he wouldn't return the favor. He didn't trust you. A good relationship is based on trust, open communication, and consideration for all partners involved." He sounded passionate as he spoke. Passionate enough to stand up and start pacing as he made very valid points to you.
A soft shudder went through you and you pulled your knees up to your chest. His words hurt to hear, but he was right. It still made the tears spill forth. Miguel crouched down next to you and placed a hand to your shoulder as he cooed to you.
"Hey, it's alright. It's okay to cry. If it helps, I am gonna be in town for a while. If he comes back, I'll kick his shocking ass. It's not hard to miss a guy that apparently looks just like me." He seemed eager to kick Jake's ass for you, and he hadn't even known you for an hour yet.
But you didn't get the slang he was using. It sounded funny and weird to you, because you swore a lot. Like, so much, you had been a tabloid hit for your potty mouth.
"Why do you keep saying shocking, instead of fucking?" You asked, and he laughed nervously.
"Oh, I, uh… Where I come from, we use 'shock' in place of 'fuck'." He shrugged and rubbed his neck with a crooked smile. He smiled a lot differently than Jake. It was natural, not forced. That and the fangs he had were a dead giveaway that this wasn't Lockley.
In fact, now that you were no longer blinded with rage, you took a moment to actually look at this man. His cheekbones were slightly more pronounced, his face more defined and chiselled. He was all muscle, while Jake had a bit of padding in the middle. Miguel was taller, like a lot taller. You felt like he could block out the sun, while Jake could only block out the moon.
Then you noticed how much younger he was, or at least he appeared to be. He could have been older. You were a terrible judge of age, especially after finding out that Wong and Stephen weren't in their fifties like you thought they were. You thought America was in her twenties, but she was younger than Peter and Miles. You even made the mistake of thinking Scott was in his mid thirties, when he was older than Stephen.
Miguel noticed you staring at him, and you looked away once you realized it. After a moment, you looked back, seeing he was blushing and fiddling with his watch.
"And where do you come from?" You tilted your head up to look at him, waiting for an answer. He looked away and then back at you with a worried look.
"I, uh… You won't believe me…"
"Try me. You just showed me there's a guy out here that looks like my ex. I live in the Sanctum with wizards and other Spiders, and I have super powers."
"Shock, you're right. Well, uh… I am from the future of another universe." He carefully said and then winced. You could tell he was awaiting your disapproval.
"Oh… That actually makes so much sense!"
"It does? Wait, you believe me?" He was surprised and he visibly relaxed at your acceptance.
"Yeah, I sure do! Stephen said there was a cosmic anomaly and he couldn't find a reason as to why! That must have been you! When did you get here?" You asked as you shifted to lean forward.
"Um… About three weeks agooo-ooh!?" Miguel scooted back a bit, lost his balance, and landed on his ass. You giggled at his droopy grin.
"Aha! That's when he said the anomaly happened!" You reached out and helped him up.
He was heavier than Jake!
"Oh. That's probably me. There was an experiment I was conducting, and it sent me here. I've been working on getting back, but I need to find an adequate power source to get back-"
"I could ask Stephen for you!" You offered with excitement. Miguel groaned and shook his head.
"No, thank you. I would rather figure it out for myself. In fact, I would really prefer it if you didn't tell him about me."
"Well, I can’t just lie to the man if he asks. He has a third eye, and he's very good at reading people." You replied, which made him raise a brow.
"A what?"
"A magical third eye. It helps him see people's true intentions, whether or not they are lying to him, and sometimes, he uses it to read people's minds." You said and Miguel blinked a few times.
"Okay, I don't want to meet this guy then."
"Chances are, he already is aware of who you are, and where you are at this exact moment. He tracks me, Spider-Man, and the other Spiders every night to make sure we are all okay."
"Shock. You have a powerful wizard watching you? That's kind of… Well, kind of creepy if you ask me."
"I don't mind. If I am in trouble, he'll show up. He is like the collective Spider father figure around here. He cares about us."
"But what if, you know, you wanted 'privacy'?" He looked around and whispered, as if that would stop the doctor from hearing him if he was indeed watching.
"Oh, then he'd stop watching. He's not a pervert or anything. At least not that I know of." You laughed and gave a little snort. Miguel smiled and sat back.
“So, future boy, where are you staying? Please tell me it’s not a box under a bridge, because no offence, you sure smell like it.” You asked as you waved your hand in front of your face. He blushed and looked away.
“Not a box, but he does smell like he has been sleeping under a bridge like a troll-“ You heard his watch pipe up, and he slammed his palm over the speaker.
“Oh god, I am so sorry, I didn’t mean-“ The words came tumbling from your mouth.
“It’s fine.”
“It is not fine. You stink. You need a shower or a good long soak in a hot tub.” You said and paused for a moment. He stunk, but like a garbage bin or something. You almost wondered if he was homeless while he was here. It made sense if he was from the future.
“I actually was thrown into a dumpster this morning. I haven’t bothered to go back to my hotel.”
“Oh my god. I am sorry.”
“Naw, it’s fine, really. I chose not to go and shower. I had been chasing that guy all day. He managed to knock me into a dumpster, almost got away, then I spent my time watching him from the rooftops. I finally caught him when you showed up.”
“Does that mean you haven’t eaten?”
"Yeah, actually. I'm starving."
"Hold on a second then." You smiled and pulled out your phone.
Miguel watched as you stuck your tongue out between your teeth and tapped away quickly. Your fingers moved just slow enough for the phone to register your touch commands. He had never seen anyone type that fast before.
"What are you hungry for?" You brought up a food delivery app and scrolled around.
"Uh… Is it bad that I want Chinese? No, wait… I am really craving some good pizza." He said.
Pizza? That was great, because you knew a little place around the corner. Putting your phone away, you quickly put your mask away into your bag, tucked your collar down, and then pulled out some sweatpants. Miguel was confused for a second, that is until you kicked your shoes off and hopped into the pants. You put the shoes back on and then grabbed your wallet.
"OK, let's go over a block to the west. There's a really good pizza place over there. I go there all the time to pick up dinner for the Sanctum. Stephen usually gets pasta, my friends get pizzas, and I like the wings." You announced and left over to the next building.
"Oh? That sounds good." Miguel asked as he easily kept up with you.
"Yeah. I'm getting myself the Chipotle and honey wings." As you spoke, your mouth watered at the idea of soon having delicious chicken wings.
"I want an extra large Hawaiian. Extra pineapple." Miguel said with excitement as he licked his lips and did a flip in the air.
You landed on the roof of the pizza place, and Miguel opted to stay up on the roof while you went to order and pick it up. He was surprised to see you come back up fifteen minutes later with a pizza box and two containers of wings.

Also, the height thing bugs the shit out of me. Moon Knight is supposed to be 6'2". We know Oscar is a short king. But! Miguel is supposed to be 5'10. We see Miles, who is supposed to be 5'8", but Miguel literally towers over him by a lot, telling me the man is well over 6'2". So, I don't give a fuck what anyone says. This Miguel is gonna be like 6'9". Deal with it.
I asked a friend for Miguel's favorite food. It's their opinion. So there.

Day 4: Sanji + Christmas Cookies
Tumblr media
Summary: Sanji enlists you to help him make Christas cookies for the crew.
Warnings: Fluff, flirtatious!Sanji, no preestablished relationship, fem!pronouns
You watched curiously as Sanji kneaded his palms into the fluffy ball of gingerbread dough with a soft grunt. "That outta do it," he huffed, grabbing a kitchen towel to wipe away the excess oil off his hands.
"Um, Sanji?" you asked, prompting him to glance down at you as he tossed the towel over his shoulder with a smile.
"Um, (Y/N)?" he mocked with a snicker. "What's up?"
"I was just wondering..." you trailed, glancing around the kitchen, as you'd only seen inside of it once or twice. "You're usually so territorial about the kitchen and being the only on who cooks, what changed?"
"Nothing," he laughed airily. "I still don't like anybody in my kitchen."
"Then why'd you ask me to help you?" you questioned, tilting your head to the side with a cocked brow.
"Thought it'd be fun," he answered, turning to his left to take the rolling pin out of the cupboard. "Besides, I can trust you not to break or burn anything. I'll be doing most of the heavy lifting anyways, I mostly just wanted you to help decorate." He explained, piling the dough into a glass and transferring it to a clean countertop, dusted with flour. "Of course, if there's something else you'd rather be doing-"
"No, I'd love to help!" you confirmed, a bit to eagerly. He laughed at your enthusiasm as he began to roll the dough into a sheet that you could cut shapes into.
-----
Your tongue poked out to go along with your laser focus as you very carefully cut out the shape of a straw hat with a sharp knife. "Ya know, I gave you cookie cutters for a reason?" Sanji snickered, leaning on the counter to watch you, a master at work.
"Shh," you hissed with furrowed brows. "Just watch." Once you were finished, you delicately lifted the piece, before laying it down on the head of one of the gingerbread men you'd cut out. You then pressed the seams together with your fingers, smoothing out the indent.
"Luffy?" he asked, amused with your antics.
"Yep!" you chirped, laying the captain on the baking sheet. "How does he look?" you asked with a gleaming smile. He thought for a moment, before kneeling down and pulling at the figures arms until the were stretched beyond normal limits.
"That's better," he remarked, pleased with himself for his sense of humor.
"Hey!" you protested with a huff. "You messed him up!"
Sanji simply rolled his eyes at you and grabbed a cutter before sinking it into the dough. "C'mon, let's hurry and get these things in the oven before the dough goes bad."
-----
The aroma of spiced molasses and confectioner's sugar filled the kitchen, leaking out into other nearby areas of the ship as the cookies began to rise in the oven. While they were baking, Sanji took it upon himself to whip a batch of homemade icing, before distributing it into small bowls, and tasked you with coloring each one while he set the cookies on the cooling rack. When he turned back to you, he stopped short before snorting into his hand, heartily laughing at the sight before him.
There you stood with food dye and icing covering your apron and shirt, a little even in your hair. "Help..." you muttered, looking at him with pitiful begging eyes.
"Mon dieu," he sighed, playfully shaking his head before approaching you to tie your hair with a rubber band, making sure that it was completely brushed from your face. "Fille malpropre."
"Hey," you whined. "I told you not to talk shit about me in French! You know I can't understand it..." You huffed, crossing your arms and huffing.
"Toutes les choses douces, mon cher." he sighed, gazing over you lovingly. "Don't pout, c'mon, let's finish the cookies."
You nodded in agreeance as he turned to retrieve the tray, carrying it over to the icing station you'd created. Once there, he immediately grabbed a circular one, dipping it into the bowl of blue icing, before laying it down in front of him. After, he took a spatula to scoop some of the excess white into a piping bag, before kneeling down to focus. You watched in amazement as he masterfully painted an intricate snowflake onto the treat, before carefully playing it back onto the try to dry.
"Wow..." you gasped, still surveying the quality of his work. "That's so pretty, Sanji! How'd you learn to do that?"
"Merci," he laughed with a wholehearted grin. "It's something I learned on the Baratie. It's a pretty simple technique, actually."
Your eyes widened with equal parts wonder and excitement. "Do you think you could teach me?!"
He thought for a moment before smiling. "Don't see why not." Ignoring the warm feelings in his chest, he stepped behind you again, his time to guide your hands as you filled in your Luffy cookie's arms and torso with red icing. "There, see? It's not hard." he encouraged, letting you go to finish on your own, with his super vision of course. Once he was confident in your amateur skills, he grabbed another cooking to start decorating it.
After a few minutes of silence had gone by, he glanced over to once again, see your tongue poking out of your lips- a sign of your intense concentration. However, that wasn't what had piqued his interest. What had, was the small splotch of yellow icing on your cheek. He'd guessed that, when you were filling in Luffy's hat, you must have gotten a bit on your finger, and then touched your face, probably to stifle an itch or remove a strand of hair from your face. Either way, it bothered him enough to mention it.
"Ma fille désordonnée," he cooed, reaching out to you and catching your chin in the crook of his finger. "Laisse moi te nettoyer."
Your face flushed a bright pink hue as he embraced you, pulling you closer into him, and leaning deeply into your space. "S-Sanji?"
"Oui, mon petit?" he purred, his thumb grazing over your cheek, wiping away the sweetness from your skin, after which, he brought the digit to his lips, sucking it away. "Did you expect something different?"
"N-no..." you said curtly, shifting your gaze elsewhere, embarrassed at the notion that he would want anything else from you.
The irritation in your cheeks and plumpness of your pout hadn't gone unnoticed by Sanji, and he definitely planned to milk the moment for all it was worth. "Tu voulais que je t'embrasse, (Y/N)?" You weren't sure at all what he'd said, but you knew that the way your name rolled off his tongue felt divine, and so you absent mindedly nodded your head, simply entranced by him.
"In that case, all you needed to do was ask?" he confirmed, confidently claiming your lips with his, much to your surprise. You stood for a moment, frozen against him, before you melted under his touch once again.
After a moment, he pulled away, still holding you, the small of your back aligned with the countertop. "S-Sanji, I-" His fingertip flew up to your lips to shush you as he gazed at you lovingly.
"Merry Christmas, mon cher."
Translations:
"Mon dieu," = "My God,"
"Fille malpropre." = "Messy girl."
"Toutes les choses douces, mon cher." = "All sweet things, my dear."
"Merci," = "Thank you,"
"Ma fille désordonnée," = "My messy girl,"
"Laisse moi te nettoyer." = "Let me clean you up."
"Oui, mon petit?" = "Yes, my little one?"
"Tu voulais que je t'embrasse, (Y/N)?" = "Did you want me to kiss you, (Y/N)?"

hi, demi anon here! i’m also learning french atm :) <3
the way i screamed when i saw your requests open lmao—
anyway, i‘d like to request donna and reader cooking or baking something together if that would be okay? nothing special really but i love cooking/baking AND i love donna and since baby girl is italian, she‘d probably be the best at cooking.
+ i‘m going to apologize right here for any mistakes that you might find. i‘m from germany and i still make mistakes in english sometimes, even after learning for years, sorry!!!
Sugar, Spice, and Everything Nice;
character(s): donna beneviento x reader
a/n: oh my KLDFJFKLS yeah that's perfectly fine! i enjoy baking as well so i was itching to get this one out because it's national pie day and like- don't worry about it! i can understand perfectly, your English is really good!
...
IT WAS ONE OF THOSE SLOW DAYS IN THE BENEVIENTO MANOR, THE SUN COVERED BY CLOUDS. You sat in the living area on the couch, Donna leaning against you with her eyes closed. Even Angie was sitting perfectly still, toying around with some little trinket you'd found and thought that maybe she'd enjoy. Glancing at Donna's hand, you placed it in yours, fiddling with her fingers and admiring her flawless nail polish. You heard her hum, and as you placed your hand against hers to compare your hand sizes, she intertwined her fingers with yours.
"ALRIGHT LOVEBIRDS I'M BORED, LET'S PLAY HIDE AND SEEK!" Angie's shrill voice pierced the silence. Before, you'd get startled, and Angie would be cackling(and probably crying laughing if she had tear ducts). But now, you just did it to humor her, something Donna appreciated even if she didn't appreciate Angie scaring the living daylight out of you.
"Mmm, what about we bake something instead?"
"Baking? Now it's been awhile since Donna's baked, so be warned she might be a bit rusty-"
"Angie. Though that does sound like a good idea Y/N, but I'll admit i haven't made pastries in a good while."
"That's fine! They don't have to be perfect, we can just do cookies if you'd like!"
She smiled softly at that phrase. "They don't have to be perfect." That was something that you always said when she strived too hard with her creations. The doll-maker had unsteady hands, sometimes she'd mess up on the doll's features as she painted them on. You'd seen her throw a doll's head across her workshop right into a wall, and how'd she'd nearly had a breakdown over it. "They don't need to be perfect, because they were made by you. We both see them as people, and we all have flaws. It's okay to make mistakes..."
"EARTH TO DONNA, ARE YOU GONNA HELP US OR NOT?!" her companion's shrill voice came from ths kitchen, and immediately she snapped her neck in the direction. There was Angie, holding a whisk in one hand and dragging a sack of flour in the other. A soft chuckle came from the Lady as she got up and started towards the kitchen, slightly shaking her head at the doll. "You silly, you know that's too heavy for you to be pulling around." She took the flour from the doll, who ran over to you as you began tying up your hair. Donna rolled up her sleeves and glanced at you as you handed her a bar of chocolate.
"Can you chop this please? I'd ask Angie but we both know she's not allowed knives after the last incident..."
And so you both began, standing opposite of each other, giving the other just enough space to work. Sometimes Donna's eye goes out of focus for a bit, so she'd tap your shoulder and quietly ask you to read the measurements to her. Which you didn't mind, it was nice to help her. Angie helped in a way of sorts, being the mixer girl. Sometimes Donna had to take the whisk from her because the wet ingredients weren't fully incorporated. She tries though, i promise. After you'd mixed the dry ingredients, you brought it over to Donna, who was just finishing adding the vanilla because Angie was looking at it as though it was medicine.
You wrapped your arms around her waist and nuzzled your face into her neck, smiling to yourself as she tensed slightly. Moving to glance down at her working, you rolled your eyes this time. "Rusty? Donna, you did a better job than me!" She smiled. You and your sweetness probably would've given her cavities a longggg time ago.
"Hey Donna."
"Yes?"
"You've got something on your face."
"Oh? Really where?"
And with that, you grabbed a pinch of flour and placed it on her cheek, something that Angie giggled at while Donna gave you a "oh my god" look.
"Right there!"
"You've done it now Toots."
Donna playfully glared at you, and without warning, threw a bit of flour into your face. You sputtered in surprise, eyes wide. That just caused her to burt out laughing, a sweet melody you could never get tired of. Donna may act mature and proper, but like everyone, there's that childish want to have fun under all that. Her hand met your face as she gently held it, her other wiping some of the flour away.
"I love you." "I love you most."
As she began to lean in to kiss you, the loud DING of the oven was heard, startling you both. Angie's cackle began as she "grinned" at the two of you.
"Oven's done, let's throw these things in so we can eat!"
"Can you even taste them?"

A Tree of Fellowship and Love
Pairing: (LOTR) Aragorn x reader x Arwen
Summary: You collectively decide with the fellowship to go on a picnic! No more rings or fighting evil, just a picnic under a big tree with plenty of food to share. Also, you may or may not fall asleep under the said tree at night and get smothered with affection with a certain pair of fantastic people.
Warnings: None in particular
Add. Notes: I simply could not figure out where it would be an appropriate place to have a picnic, considering all the places the characters came from/went to, so I went with Hobbiton. At this point I'm both accepting and denying everything that happened in the story; Aragorn and Arwen walk around as if they aren't rulers of Gondor, Boromir isn't dead, and Frodo, Legolas and Gimli haven't gone to the undying lands, and yet everything in LOTR has already happened.

{ Hello there! I decided to change this blog to the kind that posts about... anything, really. Since I "converted" into an all-fics-n-shits-blog, I changed the aesthetic aswell. To spice (not exactly) these messages up a lil bit, I'll start adding little things about myself; for example, I'm a cat person! }
- Eero, Jan 2023
Tumblr media
It was a relatively uneventful day in Hobbiton, and Sam was describing to you the qualities of the plants he was currently tending to. It was bound to be simple and uneventful if you lived in a place like Hobbiton, but you weren't interested in books and gardening. You wanted to spend time with people, and certainly not like this.
You brainstormed along with Merry and Pippin about things you could possibly do with friends in a place like Hobbiton. You already told them at the start of the brainstorming session that stealing vegetables from a dismayed farmer is out of the question. Merry remembered a big meadow with a large tree - which conveniently happened to be near the village - and suggested that something could be done there. A picnic was the best thing that came to your mind, and the two hobbits loved the said idea.
After a quick trip to the rest of the fellowship's homes it was decided; tomorrow you would have a picnic under a large tree that you are yet to see. You asked Merry to take you to the meadow he had mentioned, and so he did. When the two of you made it there, you were surprised that you had never even noticed it; it looked like the kind you'd see in dreams. There was lots of tall grass and colorful flowers of many kinds, and in the middle of it all, there was a large, green tree that every child would wish to climb on top of. It was the perfect place to have a picnic with old friends.
The next morning you began to prepare food for the picnic you had arranged with the fellowship. Aragorn, Arwen and Legolas got the task of creating sandwiches, Boromir and Gimli had to make drinks, and the hobbits, along with you, were tasked to make desserts. You got plenty of help from the hobbits, for they had a lot of cooking experience thanks to the meal schedule average hobbits had. They decided to cook some blackberry pancakes and bake milk bread.
After a bunch of flour and dough spills, you had finished the bread and pancakes, and packed them up into a basket along with a few plates and a jar of berry jam. The four hobbits went ahead of you to pick some extra blackberries for the pancakes while you were taking your time with getting to the picnic spot. You had only now realized that it's the afternoon.
As you were waiting for everyone else with the hobbits, Peregrin told you about the ents that caused the almost literal downfall of Isengard. He said that although he was high off his pants after that and probably in the middle of it too, he still remembered how uncomfortable it was to sit on Treebeard's shoulder. Meriadoc recalled how Pippin was concerned about not being able to have any children.
While the two aforementioned hobbits bickered about what really happened, you noticed the faces of your dear friends making their way through the meadow. You pointed it out to the hobbits, and the five of you began waving at them in an exaggerated yet adorable way. Legolas was already jogging in your general direction alongside Gimli, while Boromir was carrying a basket with drinks he had made with the said dwarf. Arwen and Aragorn were delighted to see you waving at them like that, and began waving back as the pair walked to the tree.
Boromir realized that nobody had brought any blankets to sit on, so he proposed to go back himself to bring one. But he didn't need to; Gandalf was already coming to the picnic tree with a large, rolled-up blanket under his arm. Now the entire fellowship was together.
You all put the baskets and personal items in each corner of the blanket so it wouldn't fly away with the wind, although there wasn't much wind to speak of. Aragorn took some small plates out of his basket with a few sandwiches, and Boromir pulled out a bottle of apple cider from his own basket. Aragorn finished giving out the little plates as Arwen handed the rest of the sandwiches to everyone.
Boromir was telling Sam about the cider-making process as everyone ate and listened. Every now and then someone would chirp in, until something Sam said reminded Gimli of the stories his father, Gloin, would tell him. Eventually the dwarf retold the story of Thorin's company's travels to Erebor. Frodo felt very proud of Bilbo for traveling with dwarves all the way to the Lonely Mountain, although he himself had accomplished a major feat aswell.
As the hours went by and the sky began getting darker, the members of the fellowship would tell stories from their own lives and from others. Most of the group was becoming tired of the day, and it was becoming evident; lots of yawning and words turning continuously quieter and quieter could be heard.
You only now realized that Aragorn and Arwen had moved next to you, and the latter motioned you to relax and let her hold you. You listened to her without a second thought, and now you were sitting in Arwen's lap as her arms were wrapped around you. Aragorn moved closer to Arwen and put his head on her shoulder.
It seemed that the rest of the fellowship took that as a hint and now began to wrap up their long conversation. Gimli packed the now empty bottles into Boromir's basket, and Legolas put the remaining plates into yours and Aragorn's baskets. Gandalf asked everyone to get off the blanket and move their things, and then rolled up the said blanket like a carpet.
The hobbits also knew that you would stay longer, so they took your basket and left with it themselves. Most of your friends followed them away from the tree back to Hobbiton, leaving you, Aragorn, and Arwen under the big tree with stars.
The three of you sat back down on the ground, and tried to get into a comfortable position that would work for three people. You sat back in Arwen's lap, held by her bridal style, as Aragorn sat infront of her. You were now sitting between your lovers, unsure of what to do now; your mind began going to all sorts of places, until Aragorn gave a little kiss on your forehead.
Because you still didn't know what to do, you just froze in place as your face heated up from the move Aragorn pulled on you. Arwen grinned at your reaction, and gave multiple kisses onto your face, causing you to hide your head between your shoulders to get away from the kisses. That didn't stop Aragorn from giving a peck on the top of your head, though, and now you were back in your initial position, embarrassed that they saw you in such a state.
You thought that the "kiss wave" was over when Arwen helped you readjust your position to laying down next to her, but no; oh how mistaken you were. The elf gave you yet another peck on the cheek, and Aragorn came in from your other side and wrapped his arms around your torso, and also gave you a kiss after making himself comfortable.
Arwen put an arm around you aswell, and began whispering words to you in a language and manner you were yet to understand. Aragorn had already closed his eyes, and it seemed Arwen had aswell, although she was still whispering. You imitated them by closing your own eyes, too. You had fallen asleep to Arwen describing you in the best manner possible, even though you didn't understand a word she said.
The pair was actually still awake, and gave each other the look when they were certain that you were now in a sleeping state. Aragorn carefully lifted you up bridal style from the ground, and began carrying you away from the tree, while Arwen was right behind him with the remaining basket and personal items.
Unused paragraphs and things I didn't want to include in add. notes nor the "letter."
Instead of bringing you to your own house, Aragorn brought you to his, for it was closer to the tree and he didn't want to wake you up. Fortunately, nothing that they did disturbed your sleep. They changed into comfortable clothing after putting you into their bed, and then laid down next to you. They both whispered to you a "Sweet dreams, Y/N," and followed you to dreamland.
One time Pippin told you about all of these mealtimes that Hobbits would have throughout the day; which aside regular meals included a second breakfast, an another, later breakfast, some afternoon tea, and yet another meal a few hours after dinner. When you needed something to zone out to, you liked to think of all the good food they would eat at those excessive meals.
To me, Arwen and Aragorn seem to be the kind of people that give the best forehead kisses, or any kinds of kisses in general, and whoever receives them would fucking melt in their hands like ice on a hot day. I definitely would've written their part longer if I was good with writing physical affection (⁠╥⁠﹏⁠╥⁠ ) im sorry
I only now, after finishing writing this, realized that all of my fanfics' endings so far involve either death or falling asleep. I have a guess to why my ideas end with these things but I don't want to go there.

hypothetically, if one were to see a delicious looking recipe for gluten free fried chicken but could not consume onions would you know if, again hypothetically, said recipe would still work omitting or replacing said entirely imaginary main ingredient? I presume that if such a thing were to exist, it would be balanced for moisture and texture in addition to flavor. and if in our imaginations a substitution is possible, then what would possibly work?
the reason that onions would work in this imaginary recipe is because they form a savoury base for the flavour, + they can be sliced thinly to create something like a stringy texture. without onions, and without gluten forming a string-like structure (like you'd get with seitan), you should expect a different and more homogenous interior texture. the breading would of course still be crunchy on the outside.
if omitting the onions, I would recommend adding a tablespoon or so of cornstarch in with the chickpea flour, and maybe halving all the spices. add just enough water to create a smooth, non-sticky dough and knead just enough to combine; there's no need to allow it to rest. shape, bread, and fry the dough as described in the hypothetical recipe (replacing the flour in the breading with more rice flour, cornstarch, potato starch, or whatever gluten-free flour blend you like to use).
I haven't tested this, so don't know how well the chickpea-flour dough would stand up to being the same size and shape as in the imaginary photo you didn't see. I think this would definitely work for chicken nuggets.

Just what if you were responsible for making the beasts turning into.. well beasts.
-> You, from the start, were already very messed up and just wanted to cause chaos, mayhem, see all of cookie-kind suffer, so you slowly manipulated, tricked or brainwashed (if you want that as a power) them into being evil.
This's just something on top of my mind. Feel free to change anything or just delete this ask.
Love your blog and content!!!
Very interesting!
Tumblr media
Originally, you weren't supposed to be baked. The Witches didn't think much of it, but soon, they came to regret it. You were far from what a Cookie was meant to be.
You were evil and vile, your words coated with honey yet tainted with poison. No one was safe from your manipulations, and that unfornately went for the original Five Heroes.
You played to their desires and insecurities, feeding them lies and twisted truths.
It was the easiest with Burning Spice Cookie and Silent Salt Cookie. With how often they fought and defended, it was far too easy to convince them that maybe, just maybe, the lesser Cookies were using them! You wouldn't lie to them, never.
Eternal Sugar Cookie was easy as well. Play into her insecurities regarding her appearance and divinity. Tell her that, yes, she did deserve to be loved more, and that yes, it did matter lots that the Cookies gave her sufficient offerings.
Mystic Flour Cookie was a bit tougher, trying to convince them, but you did. After all, were all those forests really needed?
Shadow Milk Cookie was the toughest. He could usually see through your lies and manipulation, but his greed and growing arrogance got to him. It helped you turn him into one of the final Beasts.
Your work was glorious, and yet.. it didn't last long.
A Fork stronger than the rest sealed you away, but you swore and swore. You'd get out with your friends and reign chaos once more.

Since Frederick and Bob have been on a rampage lately
I saw a video where a husband was making a dish with the food that was telling the size of the baby and I thought Chef Rowan would be that dad that could do that 🤔🤔🤔 (like the baby is the size of a plum today, an avocado, a grapefruit...)
if anyone would do this, it would be chef Rowan ;)
word count: 1,053
warnings: slightly suggestive jokes
enjoy!!
Sugar Pie Pumpkin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Hey Ro--" Aelin took a deep, sharp inhale, catching the distinct scent of warm spices and pumpkin floating out of the kitchen. "You filming a lesson or something?"
Rowan chuckled softly, dropping a kiss atop her hair. His hands and apron were covered with flour. "Just baking a little something for us, love. We can't let pumpkin season go by, can we?"
"Absolutely not," she agreed, resting one hand atop her baby bump as the little one kicked, "Your child apparently thinks the same."
"As she should."
Aelin raised a brow. "She?"
Rowan grinned crookedly. "I'm pretty sure it's a girl, love."
"Oh, and you'd know that because..." She trailed off, waiting for him to express his vast knowledge.
He shrugged, wiping one floury hand across his black apron. "Uh, baby websites?"
Aelin broke into laughter, bracing one hand on the doorframe to keep herself upright. "Someone's a pro, hmm?"
"I know things about babies!" Rowan protested, his adorable little blush turning swiftly into a smirk. "Including the very best ways to create them."
"You stop that," Aelin warned, though she very much wanted to let her gloriously shirtless chef boyfriend prove his knowledge to her.
He chuckled. "All right, I--" The oven's obnoxious beeping interrupted him. "Gotta get that!" Swiftly, he leaned down and kissed her bump, instantly shifting her mood from playful to teary in seconds.
Damn hormones.
"We're taking a bath," she warned him as she left the kitchen. "It's been a heck of a damn day."
He blew her a kiss from his position at the oven, reaching in to check whatever he had baking. "I'll tell you when dinner's ready."
~
After her very relaxing bath, Aelin sauntered down to dinner dressed in fuzzy socks, Rowan's giant oversized t-shirt, and absolutely nothing else. Though the shirt hung loose enough on her to conceal that little fact.
Heck, she was pregnant and regular clothes didn't always agree with the comfort both she and the baby wanted, so she'd take every chance she got to not wear pants in the privacy of her own home.
"What's dada made for us?" she grinned, wrapping her arms around Rowan's waist from behind.
He turned around and splayed one now-clean hand on her bump, feeling the baby shift and flutter beneath his touch. "Chicken fajitas."
Her stomach loosed a rather loud grumble. "I approve."
That little smirk of his bloomed into a wide grin. "I can tell."
"Quiet," she laughed. "You did this to me...Chef."
"And I'd do it all over again," he murmured into her ear, promise darkening his words.
"Oh, I know." Her eyes sparked with mischief.
He smirked and pulled her chair out for her, gentleman that he was. "But I wouldn't dare come between my pregnant Fireheart and her beloved food."
"Damn right," Aelin returned, beaming.
She was full and content by the time Rowan returned from taking care of the dishes. That warm pumpkin scent from earlier grew stronger, and her gaze immediately flicked to the pie plate in his hands.
To the delectable-looking pumpkin pie he carried.
Suddenly, her stomach and her baby decided they had room for more.
"What's that, Chef?"
"This," he declared, placing the pie down on the table, "is a pumpkin pie. Made from a sugar pie pumpkin, of course." Proudly, he displayed a miniature orange pumpkin, small enough that it sat comfortably in just one of his ridiculously large hands.
"Oooookay." Aelin's brows furrowed slightly. "What's the importance of using that kind of pumpkin, Chef?"
"Well," he grinned, placing the pumpkin down on the table. "First, sugar pie pumpkins are the best variety for cooking, since their flesh is sweeter and less stringy than the ones used for carving. Also..." The bright pine hue of his eyes went molten as he slipped his gaze down to her bump. "This li'l pumpkin is approximately the size of our baby right now."
For at least the sixth time that day, tears welled up in Aelin's eyes. "Ro," she breathed, that beautiful pie of his suddenly making sense, "gods, I love you so much."
He smiled softly, his rough callouses soft against her cheeks as he brushed away her tears. "Don't cry, baby."
"Can't help it," she sniffled. "You and your child are doing this to me, you old sap, and you know it."
"I know it," he agreed. "Do you want some pie, baby?"
"Which one of us are you talking to?" she teased.
He grinned, kneeling down to kiss her bump. "Both of you, of course."
She tangled her hand into his messy hair, willing herself not to sob as he tenderly kissed her baby bump. "Of course we want pie, love."
"Good." He cut her a generous slice, dolloping a healthy amount of whipped cream atop the rich orange slice.
She dipped her finger in the topping and licked it off, sliding her tongue around her fingertip. "Delicious," she purred, winking slyly.
Rowan's throat bobbed thickly. "Baby," he rasped, dropping into his seat, heat flickering in his eyes.
Aelin winked. "Here, Chef, let me give you a taste." Locking her twinkling eyes on his smoldering ones, she fed him a forkful of the pie, warmth pooling low in her core at the way he sighed, deep and smoky and promising.
"Eat up, love," he rumbled.
She flashed him a smirk and turned her attention to the pumpkin pie, moaning softly at the deliciousness of it. "My gods, Ro, this is amazing."
"Glad you enjoy," he hummed, quietly resting one hand stop her bare thigh. And sliding his fingers slowly upwards to find--
To find that she wasn't wearing anything beneath that shirt.
"You're trying to kill me," he groaned, keeping his hand curled high on her thigh, so so close to her throbbing core.
"I'm just staying comfortable," she smirked, licking the few crumbs of pie crust off of her lips.
Rowan's dark, burning gaze tracked the motion of her tongue. "Finished, baby?"
"Not yet, but I'm sure you'll deliver."
She was rewarded with him coughing violently, a wheezing laugh erupting from his chest. "Gods, I love you."
"Love you more."
He smirked, gathering her into his arms as he stood up, brushing a caress over her bump. "Love you too, pumpkin."
Gods damn her, she was going to cry again.
