How the Assassins (and some Templars) would be on your birthday:
Ezio Auditore
He'd likely wake you up with some morning "exercises", and take you on a stroll/ride through your favorite places
A candlelit dinner atop a building overlooking the sunset to finish the day with some fancy wine
Would give you anything you'd wanted, including but not limited to a portrait of the two of you done by Leonardo (you'd thank the little artist later)
Rose petals leading up to your room
Leonardo Da Vinci
Honestly, he's the type to just let you lead the day. Shopping? He's there with you paying for what he can. A boat ride? Of course!
Would be sweet the whole day, holding your hand with a dopey little grin as he followed you
Flowers, your favorite chocolates, art supplies if you're that way inclined
Connor Kenway
You're very special to him, and he makes you feel it on your birthday
He'd get someone to make you a cake (he tried and nearly burnt the house down in the process)
Flowers by your bedside as he woke you up with sweet kisses
He'd go to town with you if you really wanted to go
Or ride around the homestead all day and show you some beautiful places he's found
Wouldn't let you do any work for the day
He'd end it all by holding you close as he gifted you a little carved animal (your favorite), and a necklace he'd bought one day with your favorite stone set in it
Edward Kenway
Would also wake you up with "exercise"
He'd sail around with you, letting you tell him where to go
He may even let you steer the Jackdaw for a bit
You'll likely not remember much, as you'll be drunk for most of the night
Would give you all kinds of jewelry the he's obtained on his voyages
James Kidd/Mary Read
They're a romantic through and through. And extravagant
Would wake you up sweetly, but it'd turn spicy
Down to do whatever you want, be it a picnic or drinking at a pub, they're happy
Gifts would be thoughtful, plus some jewelry and the like
Shay Patrick Cormac
See morning "exercise"
A romantic, Shay would have the whole day planned out for you
He'd sail you somewhere nice, and have a home-cooked meal awaiting somewhere quiet
Would take you back to the fort for a surprise party with a small band of folk playing music
Liam O'Brien
Assuming he isn't gone off on a mission, he'd likely take you shooting with him
He'd buy you sweets and just be sweet the whole day
Would dance with you in a clearing somewhere
His gifts would probably be practical, like some new gloves or something
Haytham Kenway
Prepare to feel like royalty for a day
He'd spare no expense for your birthday
The best food, the finest imported wine, best clothing he could find, all of it's yours
Don't think about lifting a finger, either
Breakfast in bed, followed by an extravagant ball in your honor
Jacob Frye
CHAOS from the moment your eyes opened
Tried to make you breakfast, set it on fire
Takes you around London
A surprise dinner (the Rooks set it up for him) on top of Big Ben
Would get Evie to help him with some flowers
You'd end up drunk, laughing, and happy
My birthday is the 28th this month (December), so this is my gift to myself. If you want anyone added, let me know. These are all kinda short, sorry. I've got a heck of a migraine at the moment. Probably doing some for the Red Dead boys next. And yes, I used gender neutral pronouns for James/Mary. Sue me

Unexpected 
Summary:
Adley Benson is a young Data Analyst for Starfleet. She met Jean Luc Picard at 10 Forward three years before this story begins. They began a relationship and now she lives with him at Chateau Picard and works from the vineyard. When Picard gets a distress signal from Beverly Crusher, what happens next for the couple? Picard x OC/Kirk x OC/ Shaw x OC
Chapter 13
A/N: We’re here for episode 9 and I’m sure you all think I’ve added way too much into this fanfic for my own reasons, but I’m going to make it work. I promise. Start from the beginning here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/45696184/chapters/114994717
Adley found Picard once he was out of his meeting with the original members of his crew from so many years ago. “Do we have a plan? Where’s Troi?” she inquired as she felt his arms move around her waist.
“Deanna took Jack to the counselor’s quarters to find out what darkness is following him,” Picard answered after he placed a kiss on her forehead, “She’s convinced that he is good but there is something bad surrounding him. We’ll know more once they’re through. How are you? All of this has been a lot for anyone and you are special compared to the rest of us,” he added as he, once again, placed his hand on her small baby bump.
“I’m good,” she replied, “I promise You’ll be the first to know if anything feels off.. Do you have any idea what kind of darkness Deanna Troi saw around Jack? I can’t imagine it could be anything worse than the things we’ve been facing,” she replied as she looked at him, hoping for an encouraging thought.
Picard shrugged, “I wish I knew, but I honestly, have no idea. Why don’t you go rest while we wait to find out what happens next for all of us,” he suggested, his lips curving into a timid smile as he knew it was always better not to tell Adley what to do.
She wasn’t tired but she nodded for him, “I could lay down for a little while. Frontier Day is mere hours away so I won’t be gone for long. Wake me if anything important happens?” she requested before she placed a chaste kiss on his cheek.
“Of course,” he agreed as he placed his lips to hers before she removed herself from his embrace and headed to their shared quarters on the Titan.
An hour later, Picard was standing in sickbay with Beverly, Kirk, and Reagan when Troi nearly sprinted through the sliding doors to find Picard and Beverly.
“What is it?” Beverly asked, her tone urgent when she saw the look on her friend’s face.
Troi took a moment to catch her breath before she responded, “I am sorry to be the one to share this with you, but Jack is a part of the Borg collective. Somehow, a part of Locutus remained in Jean Luc after we saved him and it was transferred to Jack. I’m sure that same piece is why the Changelings stole his body,” she shared, causing Kirk’s ears to perk up as he released Reagan’s hand and moved closer to the conversation.
Beverly was beside herself as Picard replied, “How can that be? You all ensured that there was no Borg technology left inside of me…”
“This could have been something different,” Beverly finally spoke, “The Borg are smart and, clearly, they placed something in you that we were not able to uncover. Something that presented as Iromodic Syndrome later on. Jack isn’t sick,” she added as she placed her face into her hand.
Reagan got up from her bed after she heard what they were discussing, “We have to send him somewhere where they can’t activate him. He’s been exhibiting abilities given to him by the Borg anytime we’ve been in a situation that caused distress,” she added as she felt Kirk wrap his arm around her waist to help stabilize her. She hadn’t had enough time to recover from her concussion yet.
“I will handle this,” Picard responded as he felt Beverly reach for him, “There are protocols that we have to follow in a situation like this,” he added as he disappeared from sickbay leaving everyone wondering what the future held for each of them.
Thirty minutes after Picard left Sickbay to talk to Jack about sending him somewhere safe on Vulcan, Adley found him standing alone where Jack once stood awaiting the answers to his time with Deanna.
“What’s going on?” she questioned as she saw him leaning against a table with his fingers pinching the bridge of his nose. She, immediately, moved to wrap herself around him, to comfort him in any way she could think to.
Picard wasn’t sure how to voice what he’d learned about himself and his son over the past thirty minutes. He took a deep breath before he replied, “Jack doesn’t have Irumodic Syndrome as we previously thought. He is plagued by something much worse.”
“What could be worse than the disease that killed you? I was there when you ‘died’ and it was one of the worst moments of my life,” she added as she waited for him to explain further.
Jean Luc closed his eyes briefly before he continued, “It turns out the Borg left something imprinted on my DNA which appeared to be Irumodic Syndrome, but it wasn’t. Based on everything we know, at the moment, Jack belongs to the Borg and he’s left here on a shuttle that we cannot trace to go to them,” he added as he felt her arms wrap around his waist, pulling him against her body to offer the only comfort she knew how to give.
“We’ll find a way to free him from the Borg,” Adley stated, confidence emanating from her voice even though she had no right to feel it. She continued, “Your crew got you back even when you were designated to be their voice so we can get Jack back. I know it,” she added as she leaned in closer to him until she placed her lips to his neck.
Picard took a deep breath as he felt her lips against his skin, so gently and soft it was as if she was afraid she would break him if she wasn’t too careful. “You’re right. Let’s go reconvene with the others and figure out a plan. Wallowing in all that I’ve learned over the past two weeks won’t help anyone so there’s no need for it. Thank you,” he glanced at her, his eyes conveying how genuinely he felt those words.
“What do we know?” Picard questioned as he and Adley stepped onto the bridge to find the others waiting on them.
Kirk let go of Reagan’s hand as he stepped closer to Picard, “We know that Starfleet has added technology to all of their ships that link them together. What we need is a ship, or ships, that aren’t tethered to the rest of the fleet. I suggest that we head to the Fleet Museum and steal a few ships that can’t be detected. Once we have them, we can meet with the rest of the fleet at Frontier Day. This plan will give us, at least, a fighting chance,” he added as he felt Reagan move back to his side, grasping his hand and giving it a squeeze.
“He’s right,” Reagan agreed, “The Titan can be detected even though we’ve dropped the transponder and added the cloaking device, but an old Starfleet ship would be undetectable. We have more than one capable Captain among us to help in this endeavor,” she shared as he resisted the urge to steal a quick kiss from James T. Kirk.
Adley nodded as she moved closer to Picard’s side, “The Changelings and the Borg are expecting us to show up in the Titan to take them all on,” she began, giving his hand a confident squeeze before she continued, “But, if we were to show up in older ships that can’t be traced then we can use the element of surprise to our advantage. And, if the Borg is behind all of this, then Jack will be there too, or at least on his way, so we can get him back too,” she added with the same unearned confidence she’d displayed before.
Picard began to nod as he glanced around him at the rest of the crew, the members of the Titan, and the others from his own past who hadn’t voiced their opinion yet. “What do the rest of you think? Is this plan a feasible option or is it just as insane as everything else we’ve tried?” he questioned as he looked around the bridge at all the crewmembers and non-crewmembers surrounding him.
Delaney spoke first, not really knowing where she fit into all of this since she’d just joined this crew and rekindled her romance with Shaw, “Based on what we know about the Changelings and the Borg, so far, this is the best plan. We have to take into account any element of surprise we have. I have a bad feeling that the Borg has found a way to assimilate Starfleet without their knowledge,” she added, causing Beverly’s mind to start turning as she grabbed her tablet and started comparing Jack’s scans with what they’d recovered from the work being done on Picard’s body on the Shrike.
Shaw let out a long sigh before he replied, grabbing onto Delaney’s hand and giving it a squeeze, “As much as I’d like us to just head back to Earth and let someone else handle this situation, that’s no longer an option. We have to face this crisis head-on, goddammit,” he added as he looked down, causing Delaney to run her fingers along the hairs on the back of his neck, comfortingly. Shaw continued, as he addressed his crew, “Plot a course for the Fleet Museum because that plan is truly our best bet in this situation,” he agreed before he let out a long exhale as he sat back up and wrapped his arm around Delaney’s waist, pulling her against his upper body as he sat in the Captain’s chair.

comments/reblogs/likes are appreciateddd
He didn't know why he was so upset at the sight before him. You were currently sitting in your Defence Against the Dark Arts class, waiting for the professor to begin.
It wasn't just you at your table. There were also two boys, whose names you can't remember. They were both bragging about different things to you, one about Quidditch, the other about his amazing skills in Herbology.
It was a painful sight to watch, seeing as Sebastian was sat at the table just behind you. From where he was, he could very obviously tell they were trying to flirt with you. It bothered him deeply, why would these guys ever think they had a chance with you?
Smart, beautiful, perfect you. Things he all believed. Of course, he didn't think anything of it. Why wouldn't he acknowledge how beautiful you were? That was just simple human nature. But that didn't stop him from wondering why he was so bothered by the guys flirting with you.
He hated the thought of them doing anything with you. Talking with you, kissing you, touching you. The thought made his blood boil.
This wasn't the first time this had happened. Sebastian can recall the many times your chats were interrupted by another guy trying to take you on a date. Of course, you said no each time, but it wasn't any less annoying to him. He'd learned to refrain from rolling his eyes at this point, but still silently cursed the lads in his head.
"Alright, everyone! Take a seat." Professor Hecat spoke, allowing the two boys at your table to sit at their respective seats.
"Today, we are going to be doing something a little different. I want you to each partner up with someone, and then I will be explaining the rest." You immediately got up, about to go towards Sebastian when another boy got in your way, Liam, if you can remember correctly.
"Hey, Y/N, wanna partner up?" Sebastian couldn't stop himself from rolling his eyes this time. You paused for a moment, trying to find a way to politely reject the boy.
"Erm, sorry... Liam, right? I'm afraid I've already partnered up with Sebastian." The brunette boy lit up at your words, suddenly feeling confident and looking at Liam with a smug face.
The other boy nodded with a tight lip smile, before leaving, defeated. You sat down next to Sebastian, who now had a bright smile on his face. "What are you all smiley about?" You teased.
"Nothing, let's listen for Professor Hecat's instructions, yeah?" Both you and him brushed it off, spending the rest of the class chatting up a storm and doing the assignment.
___
A few days have passed, and it just so happened to be Valentine's Day. You and Sebastian had gone to The Three Broomsticks to drink a butter beer together, as your own 'Galentine's Day', though you weren't sure if you could call it that because Sebastian wasn't a girl, but you were both single so the concept was the same.
You were sipping on your drink, enjoying each other's company when you see a guy who you recognize from your Charms class, someone whose tried to ask you out before, approach you.
"Y/N? It's Patrick, from Charms? I was wondering if maybe you'd wanna get a drink with me." This visibly angered Sebastian, his grip on his glass tightening, knuckles turning white. Before you could speak, Sebastian decided to tell Patrick a few words of his own.
"Don't you see that she's busy with me right now? And I don't know if it's clicked in that noggin of yours, but have you ever considered that maybe she's just not into you?" His voice was slightly raising at this point, but you couldn't help but find it attractive.
Patrick's eyes widened a little before backing up, muttering an apology and walking away. You turned to face Sebastian. "Why did you do that? You didn't even let me get a word in."
"Oh, please, Y/N, didn't you see how he was looking at you? It's like you were a chocolate frog and he was ready to eat you! Trust me, he's not the right guy for you." You quirked an eyebrow at his statement.
"Then who is?" You watched as he hesitated for a moment, before taking a sigh as if to prepare himself, and looked you in the eyes.
"I am," You stared at him in shock, not knowing what to say at the sudden confession.
"Y/N, I'm not sure why I didn't come to this realization sooner, but I've fallen for you. Deeply. I mean, we've gone through everything together, and you're just so perfect. You're truly one of the most amazing people I've ever known, and I've never felt this way about anyone be-"
You cut him off by leaning forward and capturing his lips with your own, catching him off guard. He's thrown off at first, but quickly matches your rhythm with his own, your lips fitting together like puzzle pieces, sparks flying everywhere in the room.
The kiss is everything and more. With his mouth still on yours, he grabs your chair, pulling you in closer, before moving his hands to you, one on your face, holding your cheek, the other holding your hand.
You both break apart, breathless with stupid smiles on your faces. "I've been waiting forever for you to say that." You grab his hand with both of yours.
If it was possible, his smile got even wider at your words. "You have?" You nodded, figuring it was time to confess.
"You've given me absolute butterflies since the moment I met you, Sebastian. I had all but hoped that you felt the same way. Why do you think I've always rejected the guys that flirted with me?
It's because it's you. It's only been you." You lean in for another kiss before Sebastian suggests a real date, perfectly fitting the day. The two of you leave The Three Broomsticks, feeling happier than ever before.

The More You Give ❧ (Part I)
Tumblr media
Pairing | Eddie x reader
Warnings | 18+ only, do not interact if you are underage. Heavy petting, fingering, nothing much else this chapter. Reader is 18+ and has been since before Eddie was interested. Reader is a virgin who has bad previous sexual experiences (not assault). Mentions of bullying and anxiety around this. Under 21s drinking alcohol. Eddie makes a little joke about getting reader high and taking advantage. Expect coming of age vibes the whole way through and as a result there is a fair amount of exposition this chapter. I’m trying to capture the particular way girls hurt each other. Non canon-compliant; the gate closed forever in 1985.
Word count | ~6,950
A/N | Some of you hate girly-girl reader, some of you hate not-like-other-girls reader. I am here to unite you against a common enemy; not-like-other-girly-girls reader. I really think I can bridge the gap with this one. I joke, but my point is Eddie Munson is capable of loving literally every person ever put on this planet, who dress all sorts of ways and are interested in all sorts of things. My y/n loves Rilke.
Reposting one more time and tagging @darlingpumpkin for her lovely comment on the post that didn’t show up that made me cry.

"Please!" May cries again, clasping her hands together like she's begging. "I just know bringing something tonight will get me my chance with Liam. And the freak...freaks me out!”
"But I don’t get why that means I should be the one that meets him.”
"You know, I thought you kind of liked Eddie.”
Heather’s smile is innocent, her head tilting like she doesn’t know exactly how much you like Eddie. Like you hadn’t sat and told her every detail of your gooey, warm crush on him that one time she’d snuck a bottle of pink gin to your house.
"Wait, you like the freak?" May asks, her face a picture of confusion. You twist your hands in your skirt when she makes a noise of disgust. "Oh my god!" She says your name incredulously. "That is so gross!"
Your mouth opens, then closes with a bite to your lip. You want to defend yourself, defend Eddie, but find yourself toeing the ground with your shoe instead.
"If I'd known you might enjoy a little rendezvous with Eddie Munson in the woods, I'd have begged a little less," May says, voice all amusement until she catches your hurt look and sighs. "Look, please just get the weed from him for me? You don’t even have to talk to him, but he really does scare me. Heather’s meeting Patrick, otherwise I would totally ask her."
Another version of you, one that knew how to get into conflict and come out on top, would tell her that's not true. Would list every time, at least every time you remember, that you'd done something like this for your friends. Risking trouble, going out of your way.
You take the $20 she has ready and tuck it into your purse.
"Hey," May says, tone all innocent mocking. "Maybe you should try flirting with Munson. You might be able to get me a discount."
Your leg starts shaking the second you’ve sat yourself down on the picnic table in the woods, placing your bag on the bench at your feet. Smoothing your skirt down, you take a deep breath in an attempt to calm the harsh pounding under your décolletage before he gets here.
For the first couple years of High School, you didn’t really think about Eddie Munson. You thought he was cute, on the odd occasion you’d catch sight of him looking smiley or laughing, but you had a million other things to worry about before any feelings of attraction to a boy so far outside your sphere. Math tests and making enough money babysitting to buy that particular skirt. Keeping up with the love life of each and every cheerleader that so graciously allows you to sit with them, despite your lack of green and white uniform.
But then, he didn’t leave High School with the others his age, and you started hearing his voice, his laugh, in class each day. You saw the cycle of him desperately writing notes, eyes intent on the board, before his attention would drop, neat bullet points bordered with doodles until he’d flinch, realise what he was doing, and start writing again despite what he’d missed.
Once you were aware of him as more than a cuteish boy who was best not to think about on account of the rumours (failing school, dealing drugs, parents in prison), a couple things planted the seed.
With your arms above your head, body swaying and rolling, you found Eddie’s eyes. In that comfortable space, your brain just nicely cottony from what you’d drank, still one shot away from searching for May and convincing her to hold your hand for the rest of the night just so she knows you love her, you were happy to move this way in front of Eddie.
Eddie’s gaze was shifting from the boy buying from him, the money he was being handed, to you, your hips, and back again. For a minute, it didn’t matter who he was, his eyes on you had the space between your legs warming pleasantly. You caught his stare with yours, thought about reaching out and asking him to come put his hands on you and feel you move. Some other boy touched you instead, and by the time you’d politely guided him away from your body, Eddie was gone. You just caught the mass of his hair weaving between warm bodies towards the door.
The details were fuzzy when you woke up the following morning, but you felt the lack of his presence the next time you found yourself dancing, wishing you were being watched by dark eyes.
Weeks later, COCKTEASE, written in black ink across your locker, the first Monday after Andy’s brutal, ranting break up speech. Your eyes were bubbled with tears as you ruined the sleeve of your pretty white cardigan trying to rub it away with just wool and spit. It smudged and spread. The letters remained clear and every whisper behind you was a repetition of this taunt.  
“Hey, no need for that.” Hands decorated with metal rings interrupted yours, replacing your sleeve with a paper towel that smells like vodka, the ugly word gone in seconds. You sniffled, looking up at community menace Eddie Munson, whose eyes are shiny and brown. “All gone.” He’d given you a soft little smile, leaning in enough that tingles ran up your neck at the feeling of his warm breath on your face. “If that ever happens again, just come find me, okay? I keep a stash.” He handed you another piece of towel for your wet eyes and straightened, rolling his shoulders back. Eddie waited for a little nod of assent before he left you standing there with something small but alive, green and growing, sprouting in your chest.
At the end of last year, when classes were winding down, you had a presentation for English. You hate public speaking. More than anything in the world, you hate public speaking. To talk, even about your favourite book, something you knew inside and out, was a nightmare. You’d regretted your choice as soon as you were in front of the class. You could have lied, picked anything. Old Yeller, The Great Gatsby, 1984, something distant from you, something that wouldn’t matter, but instead you went and picked-
“Sonnets to Orpheus is, um-” You swallowed, fingers pulling at the back of your skirt. “Is a book of poems by Rainer Maria Rilke.” Blank faces stared back at you. Your face was hot all over, down to your décolletage. “He was an Austrian poet-”
“Did she say the guy’s name is Maria?”
Your head snapped to the faceless question, the scoff, finding a couple of confused boys. The question was an unwelcome shock to your word for word rehearsed script. The interruption left you rudderless and trying to grab pieces of information from the unsettled ocean of your mind.
“It’s all generally sort of about how, well, things like poetry influence life. The life of a poet. Um-” You tucked a foot behind your ankle, dragging it up and down your calf. Betty Melville blows a bubble with pink gum, the pop of it making you flinch. “Like Orpheus! He was a poet- the best poet, or a musician. And in the myth - he’s part of a Greek myth about him and his wife - in the myth, he travels to the underworld to save Euridice, who’s his wife, from Hades.”
“Oh, fucking cool,”
You blinked. Eddie Munson was sitting forward in his seat, staring at you intently. His eyes were wide with interest. Catching your gaze, he gave you an encouraging, prompting smile.
“Eddie, please keep that kind of language to yourself.”
Eddie apologised to Miss O’Donnell with a charming grin just bordering on sardonic, then, looking at you, said, “it is cool though.”
“Yeah, yes, it’s really cool. Actually, the whole book is poems that are sort of intended to be lessons to people like Orpheus, about dealing with the things that happen in life.” Your eyes were fixed on his face, on the encouraging smile you could hardly believe was there. “My favourite, in the whole book, is Want the Change, which is about learning to appreciate things you might not necessarily have wanted to happen, and how they can actually lead to good things, if you let them. I can, I can read it, maybe? It’s only short.”
Your teacher said something, but it was Eddie’s excited nod that made you open the book you held in trembling hands and find the page most worn at the edges.
“Want the change,” you started. “Be inspired by the flame, where everything shines as it disappears.”
You spent the rest of your minutes looking only between the words you loved and Eddie’s kind eyes, the soft earth of your heart blooming with colour.
“You lost, sweetheart?” Your head snaps up from your bare knees to find Eddie walking towards you, in the process of shrugging off his jacket.
"I'm May's friend," you say quietly, followed by your name, unsure if he’d even know it. "She couldn't come because…well, because-"
“My guess is she's scared of meeting the freak in the woods?” Your expression must be answer, enough, because he rolls his eyes. Eddie places the black lunchbox on the table by your hip, eyes focused on where his thumb plays with the latch. “So she sent you. You're not scared of me?"
Of a boy with big eyes and a stash of paper towels to rub mean words off lockers? You give him a little, friendly smile and shake your head.
Eddie grins at that, eyes crinkling around the sides with it. He clasps his hands together in front of him then lets go, drumming a little on the table. For a second you’re just looking at each other, listening to the rhythmic beat of his knuckles against wood until he clears his throat. "Okay. Down to business."
"May told you what she wanted?"
"In the five seconds she was willing to stand near me? Sure did.” He flips open the box in a smooth motion. "I normally charge $20 for the half ounce."
You open your mouth to tell him that's what she gave you, cut off by Eddie continuing.
"If she'd given me the chance, I would have told her that sending her pretty friend out to collect would get her a 25% discount. But, uh,” he holds one of the plastic bags out to you, shrugging, brown eyes shining. "I guess it's just her lucky day."
Your mouth must be filled with cotton, or else your brain, because you don’t say anything. You just stare at him long enough that he starts to tilt his head, looking like he regrets his last words. "You okay?"
“I'm sorry.” You shake your head, smoothing your palms down over your calves awkwardly. "That’s very sweet of you, Eddie,” you finally answer, sounding almost out of breath when you take the bag from him. “But it's still her money. You might as well take the twenty."
"I won’t tell, if you keep the five."
Your eyes widen, scandalised even as you zip up your backpack to hide the weed inside. "Oh, I would never do that."
Eddie tucks the offered $20 into his wallet. “Thought not, but I mean, I never thought I'd ever see you out here, either.” Eddie says, sitting up on the table next to you. Not close enough to touch, to feel the softness of his t-shirt or his skin, but enough that you get a hint of the warmth he’s radiating.
“Oh. Why not?”
“Uhhh.” He’s not subtle, eyes drifting up your body from the frilly edges of your socks to the bow of the scrunchie that’s currently holding your hair back from your face. “I guess I was worried you might be like your friend.”
“May’s a good person, Eddie,” you say. “But, well, she has to fit in with the cheerleaders, you know? That’s why she says mean things sometimes.”
There’s a pause while Eddie blinks. Then, eyebrows together, he asks, “she ever mean to you?”
You’re about to shake your head instinctively, but you end up staring at him. It wouldn’t be like telling Heather, you realis, or even your Mom who had known May since she was in pigtails. Eddie would listen, you think. Eddie would listen and Eddie would understand. You look down, considering your next words, realising that you’re about to tell Eddie Munson something that you've never voiced to anyone else.
But your name comes in a yell from behind you. Speak of the devil springs to mind, followed by guilt and the question of when you started thinking about someone you love this way.
May stands there with Andy, of all people, at the edge of the trees. "Come on!" May eyes Eddie nervously, glaring when he waves at her with waggling, ringed fingers.
“You’re that scared of me that you had to bring some muscle with you?”
“She was worried for her friend after she was out here with you so long," Andy answers, crossing his arms. He looks at you. "We both were."
Defend him, you think. But then May is shaking her hand at you again, telling you to move. Your name is a rough order in her mouth.
Grabbing your bag and sliding off the table in a rush, you pause for a second to look him in the eye. "Thanks, Eddie."
"Nice doing business with you, sweetheart."
"Sweetheart?" May repeats, incredulous, grabbing your arm and pulling you close so Andy can’t hear her hiss. "Please tell me you were not actually flirting with the freak."
You look at Eddie over your shoulder, catching his intent gaze before May presses on your back, forcing you to look away.
❦⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄❦⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄❦⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄❦⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄❦
That night, your fingers flex under the wet stroke of polish. "He was actually really sweet."
“Stop moving!” Heather yells, tsking at the quick drying yellow smudge on your finger. She wipes it away with a piece of cotton and acetone before she grants you a smile. “It’s so funny, how people can come across one way, and be so different when you really talk to them.”
Your face is warm, your voice is a whisper. "He called me pretty."
“I cannot believe what I’m hearing,” May says from across the room. “Not only do you have a weird little crush on Eddie Munson, you’re now actually thinking about, what, dating him?”
Your smile fades a little. “He really isn’t like what people say.”
“Except he literally is exactly like what people say?” She answers, her voice cutting. “He started a club called Hellfire. He has all those boys wearing that shirt like some kind of cult!” She rolls her eyes, going back to applying her lipstick. “My Mom said that game they play is all to do with Satanist stuff, too.”
Heather's fingers hover in the air over the cross around her neck. She only drops her hand at the sight of your deflated expression, looking over her shoulder. "Your Mom doesn't know everything, May.”
“Well, she didn’t make it up herself! There’s studies on what it does to people, Heather! Real studies!”
You feel wilted by the end, unsure of how to explain yourself. You’re silent, continuing to blow on your nails even once they’re dry just for something to do. You watch after May’s form when she leaves to get changed before looking at Heather again. “I just liked talking to him, I guess.”
Heather laughs, giving your arm a soft, comforting touch. “When are you going to see him again?” At your unsure shrug, she rolls her eyes. “You have to talk to him soon!”
“I wouldn’t even know what to say.”
Heather's face breaks into a sly little smile. “Oh, Eddie!” She cries, voice comically breathy, clasping her hands together by her cheek. “You’re the man I have been waiting for my whole life! Take me no-OW!”
You bash her with a cushion with as much force as you’re willing to put behind hitting Heather. She falls back, giggling away while you clench your hands around the fabric of the pillow, preparing to strike again if she keeps going. “Okay, so that’s a no,” she says, considering. “Maybe you could ask to buy something from him yourself."
“But I’ve never done anything like that,”
“That’s not an issue. Just ask him to teach you,” she answers confidently, moving to do her mascara at her vanity. “Guys like that.”
“Guys like teaching girls how to smoke?”
She smiles at you through the mirror. “Guys like teaching girls anything.”
On Monday, May barely wants to talk at all, still miserable from Friday night. You'd spent the weekend at hers, visited periodically by Heather, stroking her hair and plying her with ice cream and fresh baked cookies. At lunch, she leans her head on your shoulder while she plays with cafeteria pasta.
“Listen, it’s his loss,” you remind her, having moved past soft hushing and placation to accusations about Liam's mental fortitude. “You looked amazing on Friday. He must be blind or insane.”
“What kind of guy takes drugs you bought and leaves with them, anyway?” Courtney says from the other end of the table, having heard the story through the grapevine, apparently. It strikes the wrong nerve, leading to May burying her face in her hands as the tears start to flow again. You and Heather spring into action, comforting her as the three of you walk to the bathroom.
Together, you chorus the things she needs to hear right now.
“I didn’t want to tell you this, but he is totally not on your level.”
“100 percent! Did you see that girl he was with? Clearly he likes them easy.”
“Easy and ugly,” May agrees, sniffling. “So it was never going to work.”
“Exactly,” you nod, smiling to see her rubbing her drying eyes. She wraps her arms around you then, letting you give her a comforting squeeze.
“Thank you,” she whispers. “You guys are the best friends in the world.” She sighs deeply, fanning her face to stop any more tears. “God, look at me. My make up is ruined.”
“We have plenty of time to fix it.”
“I’ll go get your bag, okay?” You say, heart warm at her soft thank you.
As you’re leaving the cafeteria, May’s bag slung over your shoulder, you catch sight of Eddie, his head thrown back in laughter while he walks with his friend. His nose is scrunched and you have butterflies.
“Hi, Eddie,”
Eddie looks happy to see you, if surprised at the greeting. He gives a quick wave to Gareth. “Tell everyone I’ll be right there.”
Coming towards you, Eddie stops close enough that you find yourself tilting your head back to keep eye contact. His hair moves around his face when he leans forward, lips pink and wet from the little lick he gives them before speaking.
“Hi.”
“Hi,” you say again, having to restrain a nervous laugh, clenching your toes in your shoes. “Um,” you glance down the empty hall before you look back up at him again. “Can I buy from you? I have my own money this time.”
“Uh, sure,” Eddie answers, blinking slow, eyebrows together. “Wasn’t expecting that, though. You got a taste for it from what I sold your friend?”
“Yeah, I guess.”
“You guess?”
You nod, not trusting your voice.
“Okay. I have a Hellfire thing just now,” he says, pointing down the hall in the direction Gareth went with his thumb. “But I can meet you at the end of the day.”
“Yeah, that’s fine. I have to go to the bathroom, anyway,” you say, before catching yourself. “Not like, go to the bathroom, but I have to meet May. Not that we- I don’t hang out in the bathroom.” Eddie’s smile is unwavering. “She’s in there because there’s a boy she likes and I’m bringing her this.” You lift the shoulder her bag hangs from, going back over your words. “The boy she likes is a dick.”
“You don't ever have to explain yourself to me, sweetheart. Meet you at the same place?” You’re still going over everything you said in your head, but you nod anyway. “Okay. I’ll see you later then.”
“Okay. Bye, Eddie.”
His eyes jump quickly down your body and back up to your face before he turns to walk confidently down the hall, leaving you warm all over.
You compose yourself before returning to the bathroom where Heather and a newly barefaced May are waiting for you. “Will you do my eyeshadow?” She asks sweetly. “Blue, like you did Chrissy’s last week?”
“What took you?” Heather asks once you have the palette in one hand, brushing shades of blue along May’s eyelids with the other.
You glance at her, wondering if May’s in the right mood to hear the truth. "Andy stopped me in the hall to ask about Ms Fredrickson’s homework.”
“Andy’s totally still into you,” May says, eyelids flickering. “He was so excited to charge in and save you from the freak last week. Wanted to show off to you.”
You pause your work on her eyes, stomach twisting uncomfortably. “I’m sure that’s not true,”
“It is.” She opens her eyes, fixing you with an amused look. “The second I said you were out there with Munson, it was like a whirlwind. He was just desperate to save such a sweet girl." Her mocking pout gives way to a smirk when she closes her eyes again. “Don’t worry, I didn’t tell him about your little creep crush.”
You stare at her for a second. Then, gently touching her chin to keep her face steady, you blend the colour over her lids.
❦⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄❦⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄❦⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄❦⋄⋆⋅⋆⋄❦
Eddie’s waiting for you this time, sitting up on the table again with his lunchbox by his side. His jacket is gone, leaving him in a t-shirt that you just know is warm from his skin and the Summer heat. The shirt is graphic, with the name of a band you don’t know, a picture of a demon standing over a mountain, and what looks like a priest tied in chains, splashing about in water. How Eddie manages to look so friendly in such a shirt defies science. The way he’s sitting, the way he’s smiling, you want to climb up into his lap for a cuddle.
“Hi.”
“Hi,” you say, desperately close to a giggle you know would be the most manic, girly sound ever made if you didn’t bite down on the inside of your lip.
That’s where Eddie’s eyes are, just for a second, before he’s looking at the box to his side. “You, uh, want a half ounce?”
You hum the affirmative, taking your bag off to dig through and find your little beaded purse. He spies the $20 in your hand and scoffs.
“I said fifteen for you, sweetheart,”
You’re leaving dents in the gum behind your lip with your teeth. “It’s not my fault if you don’t carry change.”
His lips purse in a smile at the tease, his dimples making an appearance just to send you into a tizzy, you’re sure. Eddie’s tucking the money away when he asks, “you got rolling papers and everything?”
“Oh, uh.” Yes, just say yes. “No, can I get those, too?”
Eddie blinks, expression shifting to confusion. “You didn’t know you needed those?”
Special papers? No you did not. “I did. But I, I forgot.”
Eddie looks over his shoulder like he’s looking for someone then he tilts his head at you. “Hey, uh, is something happening here that I don’t know about?”
“Hm? Like what?”
“I don’t know. Maybe one of your friends sent you out here again.” Your mind jumps to Heather, wondering if he might work out you had lied, just to talk to him. He reads something into your expression, because suddenly there’s a hurt in Eddie’s eyes you weren’t expecting; a panic. “They get a kick out of the freak giving you a discount for batting your eyelashes, is that it?”
“What? Of course not.” You’re shaking your head desperately, but Eddie’s already muttering angrily.
“Jesus, Munson. Learn your fucking lesson.” He starts gathering his things, glancing up for a second looking like he wants to say something to you. Eddie shakes his head. “Fuck this, man.”
He’s going to leave. He’s going to leave, angry at you for something you’re still trying to work out. You want to tell him to stay, let you explain everything from start to finish, but the words catch in your throat.
There’s alarms in your heart, ringing out a warning that you need to do something. When the thought strikes that Eddie’s sitting at just the right height for you to run up and kiss him, that’s the only action that makes any sense.
Your body moves for you. Eddie’s watching you rush towards him, and then he’s gone. He’s hidden by your eyelids as you press your lips to his, hands moving to hold his shoulders like you could physically stop him from walking away from you.
His lips are pillowy soft in your chaste kiss.
You look at his pretty, expressive face. He’s closed his eyes, too, even though it only lasted a second, and then he’s blinking at you and waiting. Your fingers twist shyly into his shirt the way you normally find yourself doing with your own clothes. His soft hair tickles your wrists.
“Eddie,” you whisper. Your throat hurts. Your body’s trying to stop you from getting the words out, from risking embarrassment. “Eddie, I-” You swallow, bringing a foot up behind your calf and running the toe of your shoe up and down the skin of your leg.
“Tell me,” he says. “It’ll be okay. I promise.”
There’s tears pricking your eyes. You have to stare at the dark curls on his forehead to get it out. “I have a crush on you.”
“Yeah? You have a crush on me?” You nod. Eddie squeezes your waist, laughing. “Well, shit, if I don’t have quite the crush on you, sweetheart.”
You finally look into his eyes, mouth open. “No.”
“Fuck yeah,” he nods in earnest. Then he looks sheepish, closing one eye tight. “I kinda thought that you knew that, for a second there. Or that your friends had worked it out.”
The tone of his last sentence goes right over your fuzzy head. “I didn’t know.”
“For a while, now,” he admits, cheeks pink. “Couldn’t believe my luck when you were sitting out here last week, and then when you came up to me today.” Eddie grins. “So, the plan was to keep buying weed you weren’t gonna use?”
“I was gonna use it,”
“Without papers? Gonna tell me you hide a sparkly pink bong under your bed or something?”
“No, was gonna ask you to teach me.”
Eddie’s pleased grin makes you feel weak in the knees, warms the space between your legs in the way that looking at him often does. “Is that so?” Your little nod has his hands digging more into your waist, pulling your body right between his open legs. “You were gonna come to me one day, give me that sweet smile, and ask me, please, Eddie, will you teach me to smoke? Mm?”
It’s a strange kind of embarrassment. Not like standing in front of the class, or realising with a snap you’ve said the wrong thing at lunch. You like this, feeling caught out by Eddie in this way. It’s making you feel giddy, excitement building wet and hot.
Eddie’s hands stroke your waist, soothing even as he’s winding you up. “Tell me.”
“Yes, Eddie.”
“And then what? Come up, here, baby.” Eddie’s hands hook around the back of your thighs, skin finally on yours as he helps you sit up on the table over him, the wood digging into the front of your knees. “What was gonna happen? After I’d taught you to smoke?”
His hands are running up and down your legs, fingers just teasing the skin still hidden under your skirt before he’s drifting away back towards your knees.
“Was it something like this?” Eddie presses kisses to your cheek and down your jaw, breathing heavy through his nose when you tilt your head for him. The thumb of his right hand ventures further, brushing against the frilled edge of your cotton panties. “Hm? Thought I might touch you, after?”
The questions have your mind batting back and forth from whatever it is he’s asking to how much you want him to just take.
“Thought I’d take advantage of a pretty girl like you, sweetheart? Get you high in the back of my van and open these legs up when I had you all dizzy and giggling?”
He snaps the elastic of your panties on your leg and you bear down on him, trying to trap his hand where you want it but he’s back to stroking the soft skin of your inner thigh. You close your eyes to hold in the tears that are building up again.
“Tell me,”
“I don’t know! I don’t know, Eddie! Just wanted-” You sniffle a little, seeing him pull his lips from your neck to catch a glimpse of you starting to cry. “Just wanted to talk to you, wanted you to like me.”
“Oh, baby.” He kisses you soft for a second, then Eddie’s tongue is wet against your lips and you let him in without hesitation. He groans at the taste of you, wrapping an arm around your waist to pull you towards him and up a little. Your mouth is wet when he pulls away, and he whispers into your cheek. “Want you to pull those panties to the side for me.”
You whimper, moving a hand from his shoulder to reach under your skirt and hook a finger in the cotton, exposing your heated clit to the air. Eddie looks down between you, the hand that was on your thigh grasping the front of your skirt to pull it up and tuck it under your locked arm. “Jesus Christ,” he says, teeth gritted. “Jesus H. Christ!”
He sweeps the rough pad of his thumb over your swollen button and your body jolts. Eddie’s laugh rings in your ears as he keeps you steady over him with the arm on your waist. “Oh, she’s a little sensitive. Got it.” It doesn’t seem like he got it when he presses two fingers against your bud and rubs in tight circles, your hips shaking in an effort to both escape and get closer to the feeling. “So good, so good of you to open yourself up to me like this. How about a little more, yeah? Let Eddie see the rest of her?”
You mewl, bringing three fingers down to the elastic to pull more to the side. Immediately, Eddie slides his fingers down and around your leaking hole, dragging slick back up to ease his work against your throbbing clit. “Eddie!” 
“Yeah,” he says. “That’s better.”
The hand that isn’t displaying your wet cunt for him wraps around the back of his neck, pulling his face to yours so you can kiss him again, let him breathe in the way you’re moaning for him. Eddie hums, moving the tips of his fingers back again, just his thumb remaining to give your button quick rubs. His middle finger circles your entrance and you clench down, breaking the kiss to gasp and whine.
His finger presses in to the first joint and then he’s looking at you with wide eyes. “Sweetheart,” he says, gently. “Has anybody ever touched you like this?”
You make a soft whining sound, shaking your head, because they haven’t, not like this.
“Do you-” His tongue sweeps over his lips nervously. “Do you want me to stop, or keep going?”
“Keep going,” you cry. “Keep going, Eddie, please. Eddie, Eddie-”
“Sh, sh, okay, okay.” The arm around your waist gives you a sweet squeeze like a hug. “Need you to relax a little, otherwise it won’t feel so good inside, mm?”
Relax? How can you relax when his thumb is still torturing the top of your sex? Eddie presses a soft kiss to your cheek where tears are running, then another under your eyes. “Just relax,” he says, rubbing his hand up and down your back. “I’ll make it good. I promise.”
You sigh, feeling yourself melt into him, your face falling into his shoulder. The thick finger slides further in, filling up the space that wanted filled and leaving you clenching gently with excitement. “Fuuuck,” Eddie says, teeth gritted. “Nobody has ever treated this pussy the way she needs, huh? Oh, sweet girl, it’s a fucking travesty.”
You make a high noise of agreement at the back of your throat and Eddie breathes a laugh. He pulls his finger from you slowly, thumb still playing constantly with your bud, then presses back inside for you to feel the sweet drag against your walls. “Eddie,” your voice sounds like a mumble with your mouth pressed to his soft t-shirt. Eddie shakes his shoulder a little like he wants your attention, as if he isn’t the only thing you’re thinking about, could try to think about.
“Your pussy feels amazing inside,” he says. “Gonna need to stretch you good before we can even think about you taking my dick up there.”
You feel yourself squeezing tight around his finger, your hips rolling into him. Eddie’s talking, but you’re too far gone now and everything sounds like it’s underwater. The tone of his voice is clear, gentle but teasing, as are the slick sounds of his hand moving between your legs. With a jolt and a long cry into his shoulder, you’re coming around his fingers, pleasure travelling up and down your body in waves.
You’ve only ever cum by yourself, and never with anything inside. Something about clasping down on him adds to your orgasm, to the satisfaction you’re feeling as it crests and fades.
Your head lolls, rubbing your temple against Eddie’s soft hair. He gives your clit one last cheeky rub just to make your body jump.
You feel his elated laugh before you hear it. He pulls his fingers from your pussy and you hear Eddie groan, followed by the distinctive popping sound of something pulling from pursed lips. “Tastes like heaven. Jesus, sweetheart, you are something else.” He gives you another squeeze, helping your body settle on top of him, moving your hand that remained exposing yourself and tucking your panties back over your slit with a soft little pat.
“Look at me?”
You have to force your heavy head up to do as he says, and Eddie coos softly. “You’re so sweet, so good for me. You did so, so well, you hear me?”
Your heart flutters, and you tilt your chin for a kiss which Eddie gives without a thought. The taste of your own slick in your mouth is heady, drawing you slowly back to reality as the sights and sounds surrounding you return to focus.
A car door slams in the distance and you’re jumping, suddenly tense. You’re sitting in a boy’s lap, outdoors, where anybody could come by. You let him touch you, let him make you cry out into the fresh air.
Eddie feels the afterglow dimming rapidly, and allows you to climb off him, watching the nerves creep into your body language. “You okay?”
“Yes, I-” Your toes curl, feeling embarrassed that you don’t know how to deal with this, either what you’re supposed to say after being touched you like that, or how to tell him that you loved every second and it has your mind whirring because you’ve never been able to do that with somebody else before.
“Let me take you home, yeah?” Eddie says, sensing your thoughts moving a mile a minute, that there’s nothing he can do right now to get in and fix it for you like he’s realising he wants to.
He picks up his bag and the box he carries with him, then takes yours from the ground where you’d dropped it before running up to kiss him. Eddie debates holding your hand, but you take his on your own, giving him a gentle, thankful smile because, even with the nerves driving you silent, through the haze you see him being kind with you, even now.
He settles you into his van with your backpack at your feet, makes sure you’re belted up before closing the door for you and climbing up into the driver’s side. It smells like a thousand Eddie’s; smoke, weed, cheap aftershave, and boy. You’d giggle at that if you weren’t running over every detail of your last relationship, trying to work out exactly what must have happened to keep you from letting yourself be touched like that before.
Seven months. You dated Andy for seven months last year and you didn’t let him do anything close to what Eddie did to you on a picnic table in the forest. Not for lack of trying on your part, and certainly not Andy’s.
You had liked Andy, up to a point. He took you on nice dates, and would compliment your outfits. He was a good kisser, and the way he looked at you when you were lying in his bed made you feel pretty. But the second his hands drifted anywhere more salacious than over your bra, your whole body would shut down. The one time you’d gritted your teeth and let him pull your panties off, his fingers inside you had hurt from how tense you were and he’d given up within thirty seconds. The time he’d suggested you touch him with your hands, or even get down on your knees, the bubbling tears in your eyes as you’d told him, if you want, had him groaning in frustration and slapping your hand away from his boxers. Every time you slept over at Andy’s house, you’d end up bent over with him rubbing himself against your ass through layers of cotton elastane.
After, you’d feel uncomfortable in your skin, wanting him to hold you. Generally, exhausted from the mental game he had to play with you to let him grind against you, he would fall back to his bed and pass out about twenty seconds after he came. The uneasy feeling would last into the next day, sometimes longer.
You search for that feeling now, and find just the remnants of flushed pleasure, the memory of Eddie’s breath on your temple and his voice calling you sweet and good. There’s a little guilt, but only because of how you ended it, realising only now that you hadn’t done anything at all for him. That is one of the things you do know about boys, they come first in these scenarios.
“Have I ruined everything?” You ask when he’s pulled up to your house, ready to make a quick getaway if need be.
“What?” His eyes are wide. “Jesus, no,” Eddie grabs your hand, settling the shake there. “I was gonna ask you if I had. I shouldn’t’ve taken it that far, I just, I could hardly- can hardly believe this is happening. You, sitting in my lap, letting me touch you? That’s a dream I’ve had a hundred times, sweetheart.” He squeezes your palm. “I really think about you a lot, you know?”
You do know.
“Can I take you out Friday?” He ventures, thumb rubbing over your knuckles. “No funny business, I promise.”
Your thighs press together, the rough pad of his thumb against your skin reminding you how nice those calluses felt playing between your legs. “I think,” you look from your joined hands to him. “I think a little funny business would be okay.”
Eddie’s clearly pleased by that, his shoulders relaxing even as he holds his remaining hand out dramatically and turns his head to the side. “Nope! No funny business at all. You’ll see, they’ll be calling me Eddie the Chivalrous by Saturday.” His face gets softly serious. “I’m gonna do it right with you, sweetheart.”
Butterflies erupt, and you just wish he’d kiss you then. You give him one last look, hoping he will, a little sad when he just smiles. You squeeze his hand before letting go. “Bye, Eddie.”
You jump out of his van and close the door gently. You’re in the middle of wondering if either of your parents are home, what they might have seen through the window, when you hear the van opening. Turning, you find Eddie jogging your way, his hair a dark cloud flying around his face. “I know I just said no funny business,” he breathes. “But I gotta get one more kiss. Just to keep me going, you know. Then I can be Eddie the Chivalrous for at least the rest of the week.”
“Kisses- kisses can be chivalrous.”
“Oh, thank God.” Eddie kisses you through your giggle, hands covering your cheeks. You whine a little at the warmth of his tongue and he separates from you. “Okay, that’s enough, Munson.” Another sweet press, then one more lasting barely a second. “Okay, I’m going now. Friday?”
You nod rapidly.
“Okay,” he says again, letting you go. You watch him jog back to his van and climb in, looking like his head is just as fuzzy as yours. Eddie Munson gives you one last grin before pulling away, his van disappearing down your suburban street.

Feral Instincts Ch.2
Tumblr media
Pairing: The Rogue's Gallery (Geralt, Syverson, Mike, August Walker, Walter Marshall) x Stephanie Daniels (OFC)
WC 981
Warnings: Mentions of blood and injury but nothing graphic. Werewolf/Shapeshifter elements.

The ache in her arm steadily grew worse, the claw marks starting to throb. Mike had helped her clean the blood from her skin, turning on the shower so she could stick her arm under the spray. The water flowing over the wounds had nearly driven her to tears, the nerves raw and angry. He pulled her to his chest as the water irrigated the wounds, guiding her breathing by taking deep breaths of his own and letting them out slowly. Once her arm was dry, he spread antibiotic ointment on gauze pads and pressed them to her arm, wrapping more gauze around it to keep them in place.
A strange sort of restless energy started building in her muscles and she found herself pacing, shaking and clenching and unclenching her hand. She knew they were watching her, could feel their eyes on her, but it didn't feel threatening. Introductions had been made. The one Sy called "Walker" was August Walker, the one with the shock white hair and amber eyes was Geralt Rivian, and Walter Marshall was the one with a halo of dark curls and a thick beard. Sy's full name was Markus Syverson, but everyone, even his brother, called him Sy. Stephanie got the feeling that August didn't want her there, despite him saying she could stay until her…transformation was complete. He wasn't hostile towards her, just severely uninterested. Sy, Mike, and Walter were the most outwardly welcoming and supportive. Geralt seemed…indifferent.
"Okay," Mike said, "I hate awkward silences. Steph, what's your favorite movie?"
"Michael." August said.
"If she's gonna be staying here, we might as well get to know her." Mike said.
"She's not staying." August reminded him and Mike flashed him an annoyed look before turning his attention back to her as she paced.
"Favorite movie?" He asked and she stretched her neck with a roll of her head.
"What genre?" She asked.
"Horror." Sy said.
"The Haunting."
"Julie Harris or Liam Neeson?" Walter asked.
"I saw the remake first and the original later, I like both." She said.
"Favorite band." Mike said.
"What genre?" She asked again and he pulled a small smile.
"Metal?"
"Motionless in White." She said.
"Classic rock." Sy said.
"Toss up between Queen and Journey, Eagles are up there too."
"Classical." Walter said.
"Love Vivaldi and Beethoven. Mozart's Requiem is also a big hit, but not Tuba Mirum."
"Going back to movies," Mike said, "Favorite action flick."
"The second Die Hard with Jeremy Irons."
"Musical?" Walter asked.
"2004 Phantom of the Opera with Gerard Butler, Emmy Rossum, and Patrick Wilson." She said.
"Creature feature." Geralt said.
"Toss up between Tremors: Aftershocks and Pitch Black."
"Classic movie." August asked and her eyes, which had been closed, opened and she fixed him with a look at his sudden interest.
"The Ghost and Mrs. Muir, 1947 starring Rex Harrison and Gene Tierney."
"Favorite food." Mike said.
"Japanese anything, and fried cheese."
"Favorite color." Sy said.
"Purple and black."
“Black isn’t a color.” August said.
“Don’t be pedantic.” She said simply and he scowled at her.
"Asmr?" Mike asked.
"Asmr drives me up a wall. I don't understand how people can get enjoyment out of the sounds of someone taking a bite of something crunchy or tapping on a microphone with fake nails. Pisses me off." She said and stretched her shoulders, but stopped with a wince as it aggravated her arm.
“How’s it feelin’?” Sy asked.
“Sore.” She said simply and he pushed away from the wall he was leaning against, going over to her.
“Let me see, doll.” He said and gently took her arm in his hands, pushing up her t-shirt sleeve that was stiff with blood. Unwrapping it gently, he pulled the gauze pads away from it and growled slightly as he saw the ragged claw marks tearing open the skin. It had stopped bleeding, thankfully, but dark lines of corruption branched off from the ruined skin. The skin around the wounds was warm and she winced as he pressed on them, making him mumble an apology. “Upside is, the infection will keep everything else out and it should heal without a scar to show for it.”
“Downside?” She asked, looking up at him.
“Downside is that there is an infection.” He said, “Feral infected you on purpose, couldn’t tell you why. Normally they just kill people. Don’t know why he bothered datin’ you first.”
“Gee thanks.”
“Nothin’ against you, doll, it’s just how ferals are.” Sy said and she nodded, “Seein’ as it stopped bleedin’ and ain’t at risk of goin’ south, we can probably keep it uncovered, but if it starts up again, let one of us know and we’ll wrap it up.”
“Okay.” She said with a nod and he carefully pulled her sleeve back down.
“We should probably get some of your things if you’re going to be staying here.” Walter suggested. “Do you live far?”
“Town over.” Stephanie said and he nodded. “Was camping though when shit went down, if he didn’t get rid of them to cover his tracks, the stuff I brought should still be there.”
“You can show me.” Geralt said, “We’ll bring them back here.”
“I can--”
“No.” Geralt said, “He might be there waiting for you. You’re not going alone.” He let his arms fall from where they had been folded over his chest. “Come on.”
“I didn’t exactly run in a straight line.” Stephanie said, “Do you have a map or something I can look at?”
“Not needed.” Geralt said, shaking his head. “I can track your scent back through the forest.”
“Okay, then.” She said.
“You want me to come with you, sweetheart?” Sy asked.
“No, it’s fine, it should be fine.” Stephanie said.
“Geralt will keep you safe, don’t worry.” Sy said and she nodded, following Geralt as he left the cabin and headed for the tree line.

The Lover's Reunion
Assassin's Creed: Rouge au where Liam survives. Contains spoilers for the game, and diverges from the storyline. Contains blood, and talk of injuries and death. Also contains a polygamous relationship. If that's not something you're comfortable with, don't read!
You could still remember how it felt to be sandwiched between the two. Rough, calloused hands roaming one side, while long, messy hair tickled your other. And the warmth the pair provided, oh how you longed for it as the bitter Atlantic wind slapped your face with icy crystals. How you longed for cold nights huddled up in the captain's cabin, kept warm by the two Irishmen. If only things were different. You wouldn't be here, sailing out to find this cursed Apple, biting your nails about seeing the other part of the once trio. You grew somber and quiet, something Shay wasn't used to. Not that he was much different, nor was the Grandmaster on the other side of him. Shay sent you a small smile, trying to reassure you, but you couldn't return it. You stepped a bit closer to him, trying to stay near your source of comfort. The tension was thick, you swore if you activated the blade at your wrist you could cut it in half. You almost wished you were able. Seems your mental anguish wouldn't last much longer, as Shay pointed out the little area nestled in a wall of ice. Your heart dropped when you saw another ship, knowing that things here would more than likely end with blood.
As the Morrigan dropped her anchor, you all began to depart. Haytham turned to Gist, telling him to stay aboard. When he gave you the same command, you told him no. He could see your determination, and allowed your defiance, with the condition that you were to stay either behind him or Shay. The place was crawling with Assassin gang members. The very last thing Shay wanted was for you to get hurt. Granted, you were well-trained. You and Shay had once been a part of the very Creed the two of you had worked so hard to stop. But Shay was adamant that you stayed put while he and Haytham dispatched the gang members.
It seemed to take forever, the pair were heavily outnumbered. You'd begun to worry, and decided to go after the Master Templars. And it was a good thing you did. Shay was cornered by about ten men, Haytham fairing no better. You jumped down next to Shay and began swinging your sword, a gift from your beloved Irishman. When the last member fell, he turned to you. "I told you to stay put," he said angrily. "I know but-" "No buts. You could've been hurt. I can't bear the thought of you laying out in this icy hell bleeding to death." The Grandmaster chose this time to intervene, throwing a thanks to you, and an order to carry on. When the three of you stepped into the temple, you froze. The memories of Lisbon resurfaced. The fires and screaming, the horrid shaking as the ground fell in. Shay seemed to struggle a bit as well. "Things will be different this time. I will not allow the Assassins to destroy any more than they have," came Haytham's whisper. Ahead, two men stood. Achilles and Liam. You could feel your heart stop at seeing him. Years of memories, of love, took the air from your lungs. But you had a mission. To stop the Assassins. You had to see it though. You steeled yourself for the oncoming fight, resting a hand on your blade, and brushing Shay's with your other.
Liam and Achilles had just revealed the relic, and Achilles warned Liam not to touch anything. He and Shay argued, before Liam spoke saying, "You betrayed the Brotherhood, Achilles, and me." His eyes met yours, thier usual ocean blue darkened ins anger. "And you. How could you turn against me?! Do you even know what you've done? Between you and Shay I've had to pick up pieces of the Creed!" He took a step towards you, and Shay jumped in front of you, snapping back at him. Liam drew his pistol, but when Achilles tired to stop him, the Piece of Eden was disturbed, causing the icy temple to shake and groan. You all ran, Shay screaming for you to stay with Haytham, as he took off after Liam.
While you and Haytham fought with Achilles, your worry began to grow. What if Shay got shot? You'd already lost one love, and you weren't too sure you could stand to lose another. You kept glancing around, and as you spared another, you could just make out what appeared to be two bodies hurtling off a cliff. "SHAY!!!" you screamed, before you could even think. "Go to him," Haytham grunted. You never ran so hard in your life. Your two lovers lay on the ground, both covered in blood. You got to Shay first, looking him over. He nodded towards the Assassin, and you dropped to your knees. Liam had blood all over his face. A broken nose, you figured, and some broken ribs. The Irish Assassin looked at you, his eyes full of pain. Tears began rolling from your own. "Oh, Liam," came your whimper. "Why?" he asked in a broken voice. "I had to," you answered. "After Lisbon, I knew I couldn't let this happen again. Those screams of mothers separated from thier children, crushed under the places they once called home. Lovers torn apart, swallowed by the ground they once shared. I'm sorry, Liam. I wish there had been another way." As you were speaking, a gloved hand came up to cup your cheek. The man below you let out a chuckle. "Still as beautiful as I remember. God if I haven't missed ye." "I've missed you too," you whispered, caressing his cheek with your thumb. "Come with me," you pleaded with the dying man. His breaths were beginning to slow, but you knew if he had a reason, maybe he could carry on. "I can't," he paused, "I can't join the Templars." "Then don't. Join me. Join me and Shay. Come with us. We can lay in the captain's cabin just like we used to, all curled up under the stars." Shay was up on his feet now, albeit in a lot of pain. He knelt on Liam's other side, grabbing the man's other hand. Liam was on the edge of consciousness, but pulled what was left of his strength to lean up, and place his lips on yours. You cried freely now, and decided to stay with him, even if he didn't make it. It was the least you felt you could do. But Shay, it seemed, had other plans. He picked up the Assassin as gently as he could, and began slowly making his way to the Morrigan. You followed in disbelief, mind racing every step of the way. If Haytham had anything to say, he kept it to himself. Liam was layed on the bed, Shay collapsing next to him. You began treating the wounds of the two Irishmen, not knowing what else to do. The crew's doctor began helping you, binding Shay's arm, and dressing any of Liam's open wounds. All you could do now was wait, and hope they both pulled through.
Over the next few months, both men recovered. In the meantime, they found forgiveness for the other. You stayed by thier sides, turning down missions unless you could stay in New York. The colonies became independent, now calling the land America. Haytham had sent you out to deal with a remaining gang fort, but when you came back, your heart grew warm. For the first time in what felt like years, you were truly happy. Shay and Liam were laying together, laughing, and curled up in each other's arms. When Liam's eyes caught yours, his smile reflected yours as he made room between him and Shay. A silent invitation for you to take your place between your boys. And you took it. It was, once again, the three of you against the world. Liam swore his oath to the Templars in his own time. Not that you or Shay minded how long he took, you both knew he'd need to come into his own understanding. Those longs nights soon came back, and you'd never been happier.
This ended up really long, but I hope you've enjoyed it. Maybe I can write a bit more of Shay, Liam, and reader. Let me know your thoughts. Sorry if this is rough. I'm still learning.

Shipper Tag Game
Tagged by the amazing @cheesybadgers
1. What ship were you completely obsessed with when you were a teenager, but now you don't care about anymore?
Ziam: Liam Payne + Zayn Malik.
Don't ask. Please. It was fun, tho.
2. Which ship would you consider your first one?
Ooooh... probably Storm and Wolverine? I used to be quite obsessed with X-Men when I was a kid (maybe I'm still obsessed? maybe).
3. Your first fanfic was about which couple?
It was on Wattpad so from this alone we can agree to not talk about it as well 😂
4. Do you remember the first couple you saw fanart of?
I don't have idea.
5. Have you ever gotten into ship discourse?
No. I don't get involved in any fandom discourse if I can help it.
6. Did you use to have any NOTP or have one currently?
No... No, not that I can remember of.
7. Who were the couple in the last fanfic you read?
Javi and Carrillo because Laura knows the best.
8. Currently, do you have any OTPs?
Honestly? I don't know. I'm totally surrendered by Javier and Horacio from Narcos, so let's stick with that.
9. Is there any couple that, to this day, you are extremely mad about not getting together?
Storm and Wolverine. No, I'm not gonna elaborate, but Jean Grey can kiss my ass.
10. Is there any ship you used to dislike but now you think they are kind of interesting?
Yes. I'll elaborate on that on another topic.
11. Do you have any ship that, in the past, would've been considered normal but now you would be cancelled over?
Not that I'm aware of.
12. What is your favorite crack ship?
Ha! Charles and Eric (Professor X and Magneto) from X-Men. I was pushing my fish memory to answer this game and I used to be so weirded-out about people shipping them both (maybe for heteronormative reasons, but I'm over this phase thank God) and then, later on, I've watched the movies with James McAvoy and Michael Fassbender and I got it. Then I watched the older ones with Sir Patrick Stewart and Sir Ian McKellen and I really GOT IT. They are amazing.
13. What is the couple you read the most fanfics about?
Mmmm... I'm not reading a lot of fics recently, so I'll stuck with Javi and Horacio.
14. What do most of your ships usually have in common?
Two bitches denying their feelings but having a lot of sexual tension.
15. What you absolutely hate in a ship?
Love triangles. Also hate the cheating stuff, like, they can't be together because one of them has a partner but then they do stuff because their love is so strong. Dude, no. Be responsible.
No pressure tags: @thoroughlymodernminutia @placeinthemiddleofnowhere @swiftpascal @sigurism @seaweeden

What do you mean by "loosely" queer? I agree with you about Matt already having platform and not needing to be on d20, but feels kinda shitty to be like "these people are Real Queer and these people are Fake I mean Loosely Queer" ? like, I'm hoping I'm misunderstanding your meaning here but to say the regular cast on d20 like Ally Beardsley is "loosely" queer compared to who else d20 brings on is ? bad? Or to be like no I meant X from CR is the "not really queer" one is like also bad?
TLDR: I should have capitalized queer/Queer.
So firstly, I want to be clear that both this response and the OP are personal opinions/preferences, rather than say true fact, or something I think everyone should believe. Critical Role is not for me (yes I have tried) and I don't expect my feeling that way to change how someone who really likes that show feels and I'd hope the same would be true for the reverse (although prior experience would suggest otherwise). The same goes for my personal preferences as a queer person on what media I feel meets my standards for queer storytelling that I devote limited time and resources to.
That being said, my personal belief is that there is a difference between queer and Queer. I know that's not exclusive to me and there are smarter queer theorists than I who have discussed the topic but my personal bare bones is that one is merely a descriptor and the other is a political ideology or statement. It goes without saying that in a country that systemically hates most people, existing at all outside those boxes will get you some level of mistreatment and loss of privacy, but there are degrees to which that will impact a person based on how obviously they break those boundaries. This isn't to say that on an individual level anyone is more or less queer than someone else, but on a societal level one could be SEEN as more queer than the other based on a variety of factors. I'm not saying it's fair or that I agree it's the way the world SHOULD work, it's just is how it does right now and colors the conversation we are having.
To use some other celebrities as an example: Ellen DeGeneres, Neil Patrick Harris, Vico Ortiz, and Caitlyn Jenner might all be queer but I would only consider Vico Ortiz Queer, at this time (time and politics shift and there was a time where all of them have been more politically Queer but I'm speaking of their current existence). It might be a generational thing, but I have mixed feelings about trying to normalize gayness or queerness by making it look exactly like straightness except for two men or two women. It feels very "we're the safe gays" to me and while I again don't have an issue with that on an INDIVIDUAL level, I just prefer the personas I follow and media I consume to be doing a little more pushing back.
If I saw Liam O'Brien and Ally Beardsley both at Pride I wouldn't think "one of them has more of a right to be here than the other," they are both family on an individual level. I do think one of them has done more pushing back through the characters they create and the way they go through the world than the other. And when I'm criticizing companies and productions, that's what I'm talking about and focusing on. Dimension 20 has had a multitude of trans, ace, gay/lesbian, queer, etc. folks on their show and I'm not saying Critical Role hasn't done that at all, but they have done it significantly less and in a less successful way in my opinion. Again, I haven't watched any of their campaigns in full (I have tried all 3) but I remember when C2 ended there were fans pissed that Caleb and Essek "didn't end up together" and yet when I listened to that part of the episode it was clear to my ace ass that they were obviously in a partnership that fit their needs and was just as deep as it would have been if they had sex or kissed.
I know a lot of D20 fans are Intrepid Heroes/main season fans only but I personally tend to enjoy the Side Quests just as much, if not more. That means I've had a LOT of different casts and characters to enjoy, as well as DM/GMs, in a way that I wouldn't get from Critical Role, and thus more varied exposure to identities that are different from my own and each other. With the wealth of people I've gotten used to expecting (when will my wife, Jasmine Bhullar return from war?) I was disappointed to see that I was getting the most basic of mainstream people on the show I watch. Again, not to mention the racism and other grossness that CR has either condoned or enacted both on and off their shows, which was an equal part of my post that you chose to ignore. I'm not going to go into that on this response but V.J. Harris has a series plus other standalone videos on their tiktok about more of that stuff, if you are interested. He is by no means the only one who has spoken on this or made content about it but has been watching the show since the beginning and comes from an in-group POV which should be easier for the diehard Critters to handle. They are also concise while covering a broad range of events and incidents.
My final note, which is again a personal preference and not something I believe to be fact: just based off the energies of the recordings, I as a queer person feel safer with every D20 table/cast I've watched than I do the main CR group. That isn't based on a true belief, it's just the energy of their table puts me on edge. I'm sure they are decent people but they are just not for me and I prefer to spend my time and money elsewhere.
