The purple and blue hues of the night sky were slowly making themselves known with the moonlight, taking over the welcomed warmth that was casted over the blonde. Her eyes fluttered across the screen, her fingers moving rapidly against the laptop keys as the tapping was the only sound that filled the room. With a heavy sigh, she hit the final button, sending off the email and finishing her work for the day.
I've seen the world..
She leaned back into her chair, seeking comfort in the leather backing as the disappearance of the sun made itself known to her, making the room dark and cold in the presence of the moon. She had gone hours with no break, working off the determination to get everything done for a relaxing weekend that always seemed to run from her grasp. Of course, reality had different plans, as a light ping came from her laptop and signaled the delivery of a new email.
Done it all..
She closed her laptop in defeat, capturing her face in the palms of her hands as she gave herself a moment to just be, but the tiredness that sat underneath her skin became all consuming as it enveloped her entire being. Her hands moved down her face, dragging and pulling the skin lightly before landing against her thighs. She turned her chair to face out the window, choosing to distract herself in the endless tree line, only to be met with her own reflection staring back at her against the cool glass.
Had my cake now..
She took in the state of her features - her tired eyes, her growing bags, her tense shoulders.. and the deep frown that sat on her lips. Her bones felt heavier than normal, weighing her soul down and allowing an emptiness to settle within her chest. Everything about her screamed exhausted, casting one thought to the forefront of her mind: When had she gotten so.. old?
The insecurity clawed its way into her throat, closing it up and making her eyes burn with the realization. She brought a hand up to her face, fingers tracing along the features that now showed themselves so unpleasantly. Aged, awful, vile, revolting, worn down.. her..
She thought back to a time where she felt younger, a time where she felt better, one of the many times she spent with you..
~~
Hot summer nights, mid-July..
You danced with the heat of the setting sun, sand softening every step as you both moved along with the waves of the deep blue ocean. A city line met you on your other side, so far into the distance that only the lights were seen from this far. There was no music playing, no work to be done and no meetings to be had.. The sounds of your laughter moving along with the breeze as your hands were in hers, making your honeymoon a core memory within you both.
Where you and I were forever wild..
She pulled you along with her, spinning you and pulling your body flush to hers and repeating the action time and time again. The sound of your laugh filled her heart, making it beat faster and soar along with the clouds that sat above you both in the sky. There was a moment where you had lost your footing, one foot planting itself so deep into the sand that the next move had you toppling over.
The crazy days..
Her back met the yellow and brown grains as she attempted to catch you, your legs tangling together as you fell on top of her. Her hold around you was tight, only loosening as your gaze met hers. After realizing that you were both okay, smiles overtook your lips and your chests rumbled as laughs escaped them.
City lights..
A calm washed over you both after the laughing fit. Choosing to relish in the moment, you moved beside her and rested your head against her chest, enjoying the sound of her heartbeat and soft breaths. One of her hands smoothed along your side, drawing soothing circles, while the other rested on top of yours.
The way you'd play with me like a child..
She'd never felt so at peace, so at home than when she was with you. Your existence had opened something dormant within her, bringing all of her best features forward, bringing no fear to let all of her insecurities and doubts come to light , bringing a safeness into her life and having her find the comfort within her own skin that she had lost so long ago..
~~
Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful..?
Her mind caught back up with her body, a deep insecurity flooding through her veins and making her heart feel heavy. The tears that had formed just before now fell freely down her face, dipping into every curve and crease her face had to offer. She let in a harsh breath at the realization, the air burning her ever closing lungs and making her quickly move to rub the tears away.
Channeling angels in the new age now..
There was a bittersweet feeling now locked with that memory. It was years ago, still filled with the same feelings she had during that trip, but that was when she was much younger.. and oh how time and age loved to display itself against her face..
All the ways..
The sound of her heavy office doors opening made her actions still, the familiar creek of the hinges and a stream of golden light filling the room behind her. You were quite at first, letting your eyes adjust to the barely lit room. Then, when your eyes focused on your lover, you nearly ran to her as worry consumed you.
I got to know..
Everything that was on your mind before this was long forgotten. Your movements slowed when you had gotten in front of her, your heels softly clicking against the floor as you took in her defeated state. You hadn't seen her like this in months, but it pulled on your heart strings all the same. Your lover was hurting..
Your pretty face and electric soul..
Her eyes were glossy, a shine coming off them as the sliver of moonlight twinkled against the unfallen tears. Her fingers moved between each other, wringing and smoothing against her own skin as her nerves made their way in. Her shoulders were slumped, but there was still a tenseness found in her form. Even in a moment like this she was the most beautiful being you had ever seen, but your heart ached seeing her in such pain.
Will you still love me..
You lifted your hand up slowly, as if a normal movement would scare her, and wiped a tear away from her face, brushing a fallen strand of hair behind her ear after you did so. You turned her chin, making her look at you for the first time since you'd arrived, and met her gaze with all your concern shining in your eyes.
When I got nothing..
You moved your hand away and allowed her a moment to ground herself. Her head tilted to the side a bit in confusion as she looked at you, for she couldn't understand why, in the state she was in, that you still looked at her as though she had hung all the stars. It caused more tears to fall from the sapphire goddess, each drop and each heavy breath breaking her walls down more and more.
But my aching soul..
Your body moved without your knowledge, bringing yourself closer to the blonde as she openly wept before you. Moments in which she cried were rare, so the scene before you ate you up with worry, digging into your bones and gnawing at your flesh as your mind raced with the sight of her.
Dear Lord..
You knelt down in front of her, your hands meeting her knees and rubbing against the cold skin exposed there. You moved them up with each circle, bringing her back to you with every second that passed. You leaned in slowly, placing a soft kiss against each of her knees to let her know that you were there when she was ready.
When I get to Heaven..
She looked down at you, her tears coming to a halt as your expression took her breath away. Your brows were furrowed, eyes moving between her own in distress, your body rocking softly as your touch gave her the warmth and comfort she so badly craved.
Please let me bring my man..
She leaned forward, her hands coming to rest on top of yours, as she readied herself to speak, to voice out the demons that plagued her mind. Her gaze faltered as she spoke, not finding the confidence in herself to fully face the reality of her mind. "Age can be terrible thing to face in all its physicality.."
When she comes, tell me that you'll let her in..
You took a breath in at her words, truly understanding the exact place that her mind was in. You turned your hands over, thumbs smoothing over each of her knuckles as you thought of what you could say. You were going through the same thing, time showing it's common signs against your features, and you found comfort within it. But it never got rid of the heaviness of looking back on who you once were, what you once looked like before the weight of age took you in its hold.
"But it's a sign that you lived.. And isn't that something beautiful within itself? Oh, what a privilege it is to live.." You shook you head while saying the last bit, removing you gaze to glimpse out the window before landing sparkling eyes back onto your wife, knowing that you would get to spend the rest of your days living with her.
Father, tell me if you can..
Your words shocked her, the softness and sincerity within your voice making her feel as though she could breathe, taking away the heaviness of the ocean found within her lungs. She had lived.. Through every up, passed every down, she had the privilege to have moments where she felt so undeniably human like this one.. More importantly, she had lived with you..
All that grace, all that body..
She broke her gaze away, shaking her head as she turned to face the window. "I'm not perfect-"
"I don't want perfect.. I want you.." She snapped her head back in your direction, taking in the tears forming in your eyes, acknowledging the small tremble of your bottom lip, understanding the pain that both of your hearts felt under the moonlight..
She's my sun, she makes me shine like diamonds..
"We are so brave that sometimes we forget that we can suffer.." You brought her hands up to your lips after you spoke, placing soft kisses against the backs of each of her hands before settling closer to the blonde. The love you held for each other ran so deep in the simplest forms but never failed to evolve and make you both fall for each other all over again. "We're lucky enough to have each other to fall back on, to have the other help pick up the pieces when we are inevitably broken down.."
Will you still love me when I'm no longer young and beautiful..?
"You make me feel like I am strong enough to rebuild the parts of me that have been broken…" Her voice was weak, somewhere lost in the plane of pitiful yet worthwhile existence. It cracked and broke as the words came out, translating the beginning of the slow rebuild that we all faced as time slipped from us.
Will you still love me when I got nothing but my aching soul..?
"You are strong.. in every aspect of the word. And this," you gestured your hand towards her in this state, "doesn't lessen that, love.. I think it's even more powerful and admirable that you are allowing yourself to feel and work through these things.. To be so vulnerable and face that is to be strong.."
I know you will..
You brought yourself back to your feet, settling between her legs to keep your close proximity as you hands smoothed up her body. You cupped her face in your hands, bringing your lips to every wrinkle, each side of crows feet, each smile line, every sign of life that had made its existence known against her face. You ended it off with a gentle kiss to her forehead, appreciating the smile that lifted to her lips as her hands rested against your hips.
Will you still love me when I'm no longer beautiful..?
Your thumbs wiped over her cheeks, drying her tears away, and you loved how she rested against your fingertips, her own love and trust forever being shown to you. Her eyes fluttered shut for just a moment, true peace meeting her once again and reminding her of the highs that always followed the lows. Your eyes met hers, moving between them both as you held the heaviest weight of all your emotions within your words. "I love you.."
Will you still love me..
The words ran so deep through her veins that she was grounded within the moment, her soul seeping into each word as though she had heard them escape your lips for the first time. Her hands wrapped around your wrists, fingers flattening against the backs of your hands.
When I'm not young and beautiful..
There was nothing but undying love and admiration swirling within your eyes, something that shook her to her core and made her soul once again dance with yours along the sand of a memory. There was no more doubt, no more worry found within her after the display of the love you held for her. She was your brightest star in the sky, and that truth was made known to her time and time again.
"I love you too.." She finally said, her mind catching up to reality as she brought herself up to her feet. Your hands slid down her shoulders, smoothing out the fabric of her dress before they met her back, pressing her into you.
“You’re beautiful, my love.. I love living with you..” She melted into you as you did her, her head coming to rest against your shoulder as her breath kissed the crook of her neck when you spoke. The silence that followed was a comfortable one, any and all tension from the previous emotions disappearing with the no longer evident sun.
The safety the she felt in your arms consumed her, your hearts coming face to face as your chests pressed against each other, the feeling of home taking over you both as you stood there. The love that was felt was one to be had for an eternity, making the existence of all else kneel before it.
There is a beauty in living - traces of it found within everything human, everything broken, and everything built back up and loved again..

Toothache
How does one go "You're Too Sweet For Me" to "My Baby's Sweet As Can Be"?
Tumblr media
Synopsis: Simon Riley finds himself stuck in a situation, growing feelings for his roommate who's so annoyingly caring, domestic, sweet and too good for him. What happens when he let's himself indulge in the sweetness rather than cage himself in the bitter life he's been told is the only one he's deserving of and the only life he's known?
Apologies to this mess of a lyricfic, I couldn't help it even though this was supposed to be a relationship analysis..
MEN WRITTEN BY ANA HUANG ARE GONNA BE THE DEATH OF ME. Alright back to our original programmed schedule with Hozier. ALSO SURPRISE! THIS CONTAINS 3 HOZIER SONGS as an apology for not posting these past two weeks due to me enjoying holidays, reading, prom dress picking and wanting to stab myself because of life, there's the added bonus 👀
My CoD Masterlist
My Simon Riley x You Playlist
Also reader in this one had a lot of characterization, she's me fr, so AFAB?Reader, Fem!Reader, Short!Reader, Reader is VERY feminine with fashion, soft-girl-sunshine!Reader and Chubby?Reader. Y'all have no idea how hard it is to write without a personality and physical intimacy in romance, I tried but failed 😭
Warnings and Disclaimers: Mentions and details on sexual content ahead (is this considered smut? Idk anymore). Not detailed smut but vivid memories of sexual intercourse (especially the dialogue) with Simon. Again, this is a safe account for all ages because I'm not a MDNI acc, you are responsible for your own media consumption. DO NOT GO ON MY DMS, INBOX OR REPLY TO MY CONTENT TO TELL ME YOUR AGE. I don't need to know that and let's strive to not make each other uncomfortable. Mentions of questioning of religion or rather belief on afterlife??

Pink, bold and italic: Lyrics
Italic: recalling past events
Little snippet of an image of how I imagined he'd hold you, courtesy of the one and only @ave661
Tumblr media
"It can't be said I'm an early bird, it's 10 o'clock before I say a word. Baby, I can never tell, how do you sleep so well?"
Simon Riley was never a man to live the life he was taught to in the military, it was out of habit for him to not leave his room until around noon. Then there was you, his roommate, he didn't exactly calculate how much it would affect his personal life to save money through rent by willingly letting someone within the same living space.
He'd find himself with not even a wink of sleep, hearing your footsteps through the thin walls, hearing the lock on the windows outside click open.
"You kept telling me to live right, to go to bed before the daylight. But then you wake up from the sunrise."
He'd always hear you, quite frankly it was like nagging on the constant.
"Simon you shouldn't do that, you'll hurt yourself"
"Simon please go get some rest"
"Simon.."
He'd swear he'd rip his own ears out every time his name falls from your lips from how sweet and chirpy it sounded and yet deafening silence would consume him whenever you aren't around.
"You don't gotta pretended, Baby, now and then. Don't you just wanna wake up dark as a lake? Smellin' lika bonfire, lost in the haze?"
Something about you makes it so tempting for Simon to give in, I mean it would be a one time thing, wouldn't it? So soft, so pliant, he set himself up for an addiction. It wasn't healthy, he knew this, he'd convince himself of the fact that he would end up hurting you.
Just too different, it repeated like a mantra in his head. He was bitter, brooding and didn't find any sense of pleasure in living. Why'd you think he has the job he chose? It's all he knew, till you skip your way into his life, giving him the sweetness he was deprived of.
"If you're drunk on life babe, I think it's great. But while in this world, I think I'll take my whiskey neat"
Drowning himself in alcohol, a trait Simon promised himself he wouldn't ever do when he was young, setting his glass down with a small thud from the wooden table. But what would the kid version of him know about life. He didn't have healthier options of coping with what seems to be his dilemma.
But then there you were, sweet little thing coming home at the late hour in that skimpy dress of yours. Revealing too much to the eyes of those who wish to have you for themselves with just one look. Where did you go that night?
"My coffee black in my bed at three, you're too sweet for me"
Desperately trying to keep himself awake and at bay from his thoughts of you. Drowning himself in now two cups of straight black coffee to help him focus.
It was odd, you got used to the scent, was strong with a lack of sweetness but it calmed you down knowing he was around.
How he'd corrupt you, he wanted to shatter that rose tinted glasses of yours to save you from himself because being with him would change you. Selfish but he doesn't want that, you were utter perfection..
Simon further delved into his feelings, what the fuck was wrong with him?
"I aim low. I aim true, and the ground's where I go. I work late where I'm free from the phone and the job gets done"
Grumbling, Simon walks back into the apartment in the middle of the night. You heard a thud, you come out of your bedroom, yawing from you incomplete sleep.
"Si..? Are you hurt? What happened?" You asked in a soft tone, careful not to agitate someone would could possibly be pissed off.
Simon stays silent, glaring at you as his eyes was only thing visible because of his balaclava. Your soft gaze intimidated him, because why would he feel that squeeze in his heart?
"But you worry some, I know but who wants to live forever, babe? You treat your mouth as if it's Heaven's gate. The rest of you like you're the TSA, I wish I could go along Babe, don't get me wrong..."
The only thing Simon heard was a sigh from you and nothing more, you walk up to him, each footstep feeling louder than that last.
Something Simon didn't expect you to do was wrap you arms around his waist, tiny thing you are that your head only goes up to his chest. Your body against his, basking in the warmth in contrast to the cold weather he had to deal with coming home.
"You know you're bright as the morning, as soft as the rain, pretty as a vine, as sweet as a grape. If you can sit in a barrel maybe I'll wait, until that day.."
You took care of him that night, to his reluctance and stubbornness. Despite refusing, he had no choice, he wouldn't want a soft thing like you on his ear the whole night till he agrees. You were persuasive in your own irritating way.
Sitting on the edge of the tub of the warm bath he's in, washcloth in hand. Touch was so gentle, why was it so soft? Why's it so warm? "It's the water you fucking idiot" his subconscious screaming at him. In denial.
Why is his heart beating so fast..? He wants to stab it to stop the feeling..
"I'd rather take my whiskey neat, my coffee black and my bed at three. You're too sweet for me"
Using both your hands this time around, one gently holding his chin with your fingers while the other wiping away at the eyeblack he had. Every scar on his face felt the graze of your finger.
The slow blinks, your eyes on his. Before any conscious thoughts consume Simon, he lifts his arms from the warm water and wraps them around you.
Your nightgown was now damp but you couldn't care less, now with the man you were pinning over, foreheads against the other.
"Si.." you softly whisper. That nickname will be the death of him, you'll be the death of him. He crashes his lips on yours, not wanting to let go till you both were panting. You were too fucking sweet, your lips, your skin, everything. He wanted a taste and he got it...
"My lover's got humor, she's the giggle at a funeral. Knows everybody's disapproval, I should've worshiped her sooner"
Another sleepless night wasn't uncommon for someone like Simon.. however this aching feeling wasn't, he doesn't know where it's from or what it's about. Not until he heard you in the kitchen, letting out a giggle even though you knew better.
"If the Heavens ever did speak, She's the last true mouthpiece. Every Sunday's getting more bleak. A fresh poison each week "We were born sick"
That sweet fucking voice, like the angels speaking to him themselves. "Oh- I'm sorry Si, did I wake you up?" You asked, turning around to the sound of his footsteps.
That tiny nightdress of yours, a reminder of the night you spent together, that morning you slept in his bed.
Lashes beautifully displayed on the delicate skin of your under eyes. Soft noises while your chest was peacefully moving up and down with every breath.
"She tells me, "Worship in the bedroom". The only Heaven I'll be sent to, is when I'm alone with you I was born sick, but I love it Command me to be well. A, Amen, Amen, Amen"
"Simon.. Ahh~" you moan out softly, your body writhing underneath him. It felt hot, sweaty despite the well ventilated room, so intimate from something that was supposed to be the farthest thing from domestic.
"Shhh, you can take it sunshine.. You don't want the neighbors to hear us, do you?" Simon whispers, callous hand covering your mouth with as little pressure possible, you whimper at his words.
Closing your eyes to lose yourself in the pleasure you've never felt before. Your body being worshiped with gentle hands and soft kisses that leave marks by the very same man who kept distancing himself from you, now he'd stop at nothing for your pleasure.
"Take me to church, I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies. I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife, offer me that deathless death. Good God, let me give you my life."
"Simon.. no more–" you whined. Scratching his back hard enough to leave marks without being aware, he'd always imagine what those pretty pink nails could do to him.
"Just one more, please sunshine.. you remember our safe word right?" Simon asks for you to nod softly, you didn't have energy to take anymore. "I told you I'll make you feel good, didn't I? So be a good girl for me and take it, hmm?"
Your eyes roll back at his praise, your legs shake with one after another wave of pleasure running through your body. This man was starved.. insatiable.. who would be able to resist such a request? Not you.
"If I'm a pagan of the good times, my lover's the sunlight to keep the Goddess on my side. She demands a sacrifice, drain the whole sea, get something shiny"
It took everything in Simon not to worship the ground you walked on that night, he wasn't trying very hard, was he? Because always.. at the end of the night, you're in his bed, his mind, his life.
Was it really a sin? To want something you don't deserve? Simon stayed up that whole night, not a wink of sleep while thinking of whether this arrangement should continue. Every bone and organ in his body telling him to be selfish, take what was something that wasn't his to take.
"Something meaty for the main course, that's a fine looking high horse. What you got in the stable? We've a lot of starving faithful that looks tasty, that looks plenty, this is hungry work"
Simon's gaze, never faltering on your sleeping figure that he refuses to go anywhere but his own arms. He tries to close his eye to compose himself, free himself from the emotions you emit from him.
His efforts were to no use, all he saw was the image of you, sweetly smiling, those doe eye staring right through his soul.
"No masters or kings when the ritual begins. There is no sweeter innocence than our gentle sin In the madness, in the soil of that sad earthly scene. Only then I am human, only then I am clean"
You were getting too close for your own good, Simon knew that, he'll be damned if he let's himself hurt you. So he does what any stupid man would do, avoid you like the plague. Did it mean nothing? Were you just some fling, never to be talked about again?
Fuck you Simon Riley, he made you feel loved in bed like no man ever has or ever will, completely ruining your chance of ever thinking of anything else and that was just a hook-up session? Maybe this one time you can let yourself be delusional, was there really something more? Only one way to find out.
"Oh, oh, Amen, Amen, Amen, Take me to church, I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies. I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife, offer me that deathless death. Good God, let me give you my life"
You caught him, fucking finally, after days of waiting and trying to get him at the perfect time. "Si.." you whispered softly, you didn't know where to start. He took a quick glance at you before looking back at what he was doing.
"Simon Riley, don't fucking ignore me. Not after everything that happened those nights" You said, it was stern but he needed to hear it. It made him stop, think about what had happened.
Before he could generate a response, "Why?" You asked. It was a vague question, why was he ignoring you? Why does he feel this way? Why does he love you yet refuse to act on it?
"Take me to church, I'll worship like a dog at the shrine of your lies. I'll tell you my sins and you can sharpen your knife, offer me that deathless death. Good God, let me give you my life.."
"You don't deserve a man like me, you deserve one who is like you, optimistic, sweet, fucking beautiful and alive.. A man who's not damaged, scarred, has blood on his hands and haunted by his past. A man who's not afraid to show his love for you. A man who won't put his burdens on your shoulders and a man who will take care of you instead of the other way around. That's what you deserve and I can't give that"
Everything felt like it came to a stop, were you hearing that right?
"You have no idea how much you contradict yourself, Si. How are you so sure that you haven't given those things to me already? You might not be like me but "like me" isn't what I want.. I want you, every flaw, every beautiful scar. Not once before your silent treatment have you hurt me, it's frustrating yes, but you are worthy of that. Every struggle, frustration and mistake, every bit of your love is worth all of that. I want you to see that Si, your actual true worth rather than what some psychotic fucker decided to torture you with"
"Boys, workin' on empty. Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat? I just think about my baby, I'm so full of love I could barely eat"
"Si?"
"Yes, Sunshine?"
"I love you" You whispered after smothering him in a plethora of kisses. Never has anything made Simon melt more in his life than his wife say that. Doesn't matter how long it's been, how much the both of you have been through or how much frustration the both of you were going through..
It will always stay the same, the feeling those three words give him, like the first time, every moment feels that way. Familiar, finally.. Home.
"There's nothing sweeter than my baby I'd never want once from the cherry tree. 'Cause my baby's sweet as can be, she give me toothaches just from kissin' me"
He always thought about how unfaithfulness was such a struggle between some people, he thought about how good he has it constantly, reflecting back on what he used to have to how now this is something he never thought he'd have or deserve.
"When my time comes around, lay me gently in the cold, dark earth. No grave can hold my body down, I'll crawl home to her"
When a man finds himself in the verge of embracing death's arms, what causes the struggle? What causes him to fight that pain, to keep on going? Not once has this crossed Ghost's mind.
No. He's not Ghost, he's Simon. Your Simon.
And you're expecting your Simon home, fuck everything else, he'll give the biggest "fuck you" to death itself and crawl home to you because he'll be damned and he'll experience everything he has in his life over and over again just to hold you again.
"Boys, when my baby found me I was three days on a drunken sin, I woke with her walls around me. Nothin' in her room but an empty crib and I was burnin' up a fever I didn't care much how long I lived, but I swear I thought I dreamed her. She never asked me once about the wrong I did."
It should matter, the amount of blood on his hands. Not once did you judge him for it, what the fuck was wrong with you? Giving a monster such as him a bath like he was some innocent stray kitten, although this time around it was far more messy. The dried blood caked underneath his finger nails.
Flashing him a tired smile while you wiped off the blood that made the water in the tub a hue of brownish-red. Taking your hand in his, his lips brushing against your knuckles. The way you looked at him was enough to make him cry.
"When my time comes around, lay me gently in the cold, dark earth. No grave can hold my body down, I'll crawl home to her"
"Fucking get up" Simon repeats to himself, "She needs you, she loves you" despite how many times he's convinced himself you didn't due to the voice of his father in his head, it felt like a knife twisting in his heart imagining how it would be for you without him.
How much you cried the night he came home a day later, you told him yourself, practically sobbing while clutching your aching chest and him with your other arm how you weren't ready for Price to show up at your doorsteps holding Simon's belongings.
He won't let that happen.. he can't...
"My babe would never fret none, about what my hands and my body done. If the Lord don't forgive me, I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me"
Simon knew it, no one would ever love him like you do. No one would show him the same acceptance, devotion, care, concern and love. It wasn't healthy to be so attached dependently to someone in love.
He couldn't help it, it felt so right, everything with you did. Never a judgmental one, at least towards him. Always first to hold him, the first to ever take away the heavy guilt that weighed his heart and shoulders down after he'd done something he knows he'll go to hell for, if it's even real
"When I was kissing on my baby and she put her love down soft and sweet In the low lamplight I was free. Heaven and hell were words to me"
Every inch was kissed, not a part wasn't worshiped. "So fuckin' beautiful, so sweet. All for me, hmm?" Simon mumbled against your skin, suckling on the soft sweetness that he so claims. All hickeys, no bruises.
Fuck, he'd not just survive but thrive on just you. No other sustenance, your supple thighs he adores to cover in purple, your neck, your lips and your skin that he often compares to sugar syrup in his head.
"When my time comes around, lay me gently in the cold, dark earth. No grave can hold my body down I'll crawl home to her"
The question was, was it worth it to live an eternity of lifetimes filled with suffer to be with you in at least once? The only answer to ever graze Simon Riley's lips was the word "yes", the day that changes is the day that he'd be the biggest bull-shiter the world has ever known.
Simon opened the door to your shared home, "Daddy!" A loud squeal wakes him up from his dread of what he's seen on the field.
"How's my little sunshine been? 'Ave you been good to your momma while I was gone?" Simon asked, carrying the little girl in his arms.
"Yes! Momma said we'd go to the park tomorrow as a reward for me helping out!" Little one saying it so proudly, Simon couldn't help but smile, beaming with pride as his little girl grows up to be what he recognizes as a good person.
"Simon..? You're finally home, I missed you so much" You said, peeking out the laundry room. You walked out, quick to give him a peck on the lips.
"I love you Si.."
"I love you too Sunshine"
Also this is a very long fic.. I expect long feedback.. @connorsui 👀
Does this make sense? Idk anymore it's like almost midnight and I'm running on a few hours of sleep. GOD MY PROM DRESS LOOKS SO GOOD, I CAN'T WAIT.

quoting book excerpts in fic on ao3?
Does anybody know if there's any issues with including book excerpts in fic posted on AO3?
I want to post a fic where one character is reading a book to another character injured and in the hospital.
I know lyricfic used to be a big thing and there's a number of them on AO3 that don't seem to get taken down, and I don't see anything in the TOS about it, but is it something that wouldn't be a good idea?

Foot Lieutenant and Brute Headcanon dump post
I just have these two in my head constantly, and I need to get my thoughts on them down somewhere.
(A lot of these have to do with the world ignites with you, a lyricfic i made detailing my interpretation of their backstory)
TW: Cults, Manipulation/Brainwashing (please tell me if i need to add any more tws)
General Anatomy
At first glance, they just seem like purple skinned, wrinkly humans with yellow eyes, pointed ears, and weird flaming footprint markings over their face... but closer inspection reveals more little details.
Their finger and toenails are clawed, their teeth are all sharp, their tongues are thin and long with rings lining them (akin to a Krang's), and they lack any sort of hairs on their body. Should you manage to dissect them, you would discover that their organs are quite different than a normal human's. All of this leaves one single question: What are they?
The answer? Krang-human hybrids, born human and, for lack of better words, mutated into their current state around when The Shredder's reign of terror happened.
This was very, very painful, and they do not wish to have anyone else go through that same agony. Besides, how would they get the required stuff for the procedure, anyway?
Brute is the only one with pupils. They're slits, and yes, they can widen.
Other than increased durability, agility, and strength, along with a healing factor (rendering them able to quickly heal from cuts and being pierced, but blunt force and bone damage isn't factored into the healing.) and immunity to effects of aging... they don't really have any sort of fancy powers other than "unable to be mutated via ooze/mutagen". (This does not transfer to immunity to mutation via direct Krang biomatter)
I kinda lied with that last point. Lieutenant DOES have weird lightning powers... but they exhaust him quickly, and he prefers to not use them. At least he's more mystically inclined because of it. (based off these screenshots from a chinese rottmnt gacha game)
Origins
Long, long ago... they were two normal men in the Foot Clan, before The Shredder, known as Tatsuya (Lieutenant) and Daisuke (Brute)
They were rather close to Saki and Karai, and he even trusted them with the safety of the clan, should something bad happen to him. As if that would ever happen!
It did happen.
Oh lord did it happen.
War broke out, the clan faced utter destruction, and.... Saki was desperate. He made a deal with what he believed was an Oni, and acquired the Kuroi Yōroi, and... yeah we know what happened next. Armor took hold of him, swallowed his soul, and The Shredder came into being. All while everyone close to him could only watch as a man they loved and respected slowly turned down a dark, dark path.
The Shredder viewed those working for him as tools, and this included Tatsuya and Daisuke, who he slowly convinced to give up their names, to become mutated, and be perfectly "marked" (aka more or less branded). All for his sake.
Yeah those footprints on their faces? Those are, for lack of better words, brands. And they still hurt, still give them searing, unending pain. The concoction used to brand them was modified over the years, so newer Foot Clan members have the pain lessened, but they aren't so lucky.
Now, years later... they can't even remember their old names, and a good chunk of their lives before Shredder. To them, they are the hands of him and his heralds (aka the Krang). And that is all they need to be. Hell, they can't even really remember Oroku Saki or Karai, with them only remembering the latter as an enemy, as something to be killed.
Yeah they have memory issues!! This is kinda self projection whoops.
If you were to call them by their real names, they would kinda... space out for a moment.
By now, they follow the teachings of The Shredder and his heralds to a T, and all members of the Foot Clan must follow them perfectly if they want acceptance, too. It is as it should be.
Did they love Cassandra as if she was their own child? Yes. Did they also see her as an extension of The Shredder, as with every other Foot Clan member? Also yes.
Speaking of Cass... she reminds them of Karai, but they don't really remember her, so they get faint memories of her as a kid that fade shortly after sometimes when they're with her.
Other Notes
They are in love. Yeah this has to do with little but. Look at them and their in-show interactions.
Brute is very good with kids and younger people in general. He's just a caring dude.
Lieutenant has ADHD, and Brute has Autism. Is this more self projection? I dunno they just feel that way to me.
Lieutenant is the kinda guy to just buy everything at a store, while Brute always sticks to a list.
Lieutenant's favorite season is Summer, while Brute's is Fall.
Lieutenant is rather verbally affectionate (and verbal in general), while Brute prefers simple gestures and gifts.

Authors note: [Redacted] is not perfect. He isn't always empathetic towards Celest. That doesnt make him or Celest in the wrong, or in the right. This fic is not at all supposed to be us saying that "Celest is perfect" or "[Redacted] is perfect." 
Its simply a fic from [Redacted]'s POV. They are both damaged, and are in need of help. Hate towards either of them will not be tolerated.
(TW: Drug-use, alcohol-use, addiction, child-abuse, domestic abuse, self harm)
--------------------------
(Tell me pretty lies, look me in the face
Tell me that you love me…even if its fake.
‘Cuz I don’t fucking care, at all…)
--------------------------
Mike had always sworn to himself he would never fall in love. It was a childish promise, probably. A promise people would scoff at and laugh over. But how could he want love, when the only example of it he had ever been oh-so-painfully gifted was his parents?
The way his father and mother treated one another made his chest tighten and his breathing fade into a forgotten memory, leaving his gasping for air as he huddled in a corner, hands over his ears, begging for it to end. Even just thinking about it made him slip into a panic he couldn’t describe. A pathetic feat.
His mother, deranged with an entitlement he never truly understood, would scream at his father, aggravation clear in her voice. She would call him worthless, idiotic, a terrible husband. None of these were incorrect, Mike supposed, but at the same time, maybe her opinions of him were a part of the reason why he acted those ways.
His father, filled to the brim with an anger that often overflowed, would beat her down with his fists and magical bullets, screaming at her about how her body and mind belonged to him, and how she wasn’t supposed to defy her husband.
It terrified him, made him feel small and helpless, even now that he’s older. Remembering it made him feel like a toddler again, tiny and oh-so-easy for his father to lift up and torment, all the while blaming his mother for “not being strong enough to protect her son from her so-called worthless husband.”
More than anything, remembering their marriage was what made him afraid to fall in love. ‘Falling in love must be terrible,’ he remembered thinking, ‘it means you’re stuck with someone who makes you cry all day.’
That may not have been true for some people, but it sure as hell ended up being true for him, when despite all his fights against it, he fell for the sister of the DETERMINED child.
Celest was someone that he never ever would have willingly fallen for, if he had a choice behind who he loved. Its not that she wasn’t beautiful, kind, or gentle. She definitely were all of those things, things he definitely would have chosen in someone.
No, it was how she blatantly ignored how her self-harm affected those around her.
--------------------------
(You’ve been out all night, I don’t know where you’ve been.
You’re slurring all your words, not making any sense.
But I don’t fucking care, at all…)
--------------------------
He decided to stick around her, purely out of curiosity, when she was only nine. Even then, the way she hurt herself was blatant. She took knives to her own skin, snuck drugs out of her mother’s bedrooms, and got herself so high that she couldn’t even warm up dinner for her hungry little-sister, who was left to fend for themself when their parents got drunk at night, and decided to take that out on their young child.
It was disturbing. Terrifying. Not something he would ever want in his life, let alone something he would want for a romantic partner.
But then, when she was sober, she was a different person entirely. A person he adored, a person he wanted to hold and never let go.
She would scoop up her sister lovingly, telling them how proud she was of them every time they accomplished something.
She would spend hours upon hours reading textbooks that she bought from the store, with what little money her parents would lend, just so she could repeat what she had learned to Frisk. She refused to let her parents’ unwillingness to send their kids to school affect her or Frisk alike.
She would spend her mornings cooking meal after meal, just so Frisk had something to eat for the day. The ingredients, of course, came from the garden she alone tended outside, because she knew her parents would punish her if she “wasted” too much food on Frisk and herself.
She was selfless, she was gentle, she was encouraging, she was wonderful. Daytime Celest was the girl he fell for. The girl who inspired him to allow his phantom form to start aging again, after so many years refusing to let go of his childhood. The girl who made him desperate to touch someone, just so that he could give them as much love as she radiated.
Nighttime Celest was the woman he wanted nothing to do with. The one doped up on drugs, completely ignoring her sister as they got unfairly gained up on by the drunken adults.
Maybe he should have had empathy for her. Clearly, no normal child would choose to drug themself, choose to sleep peacefully in bed while their sibling- their best friend- was being tormented. She was clearly ill, clearly led down a path by her God-awful mother that would leave her young mind and body tormented for years to come.
But it was hard to have empathy for her during the night, when she reminded him so much of how his parents just didn’t care about each other.
Eventually, as she reached her teen years (and as he reached his own), she began sneaking out at night to get high elsewhere. Probably so that Frisk wouldn’t have to witness it.
And sometimes, he chose not to follow her. Because sometimes, he just couldn’t bear to see that side of her. The side of her that was so clearly not the woman he loved.
--------------------------
(‘Cuz I have hella feelings for you, I act like I don’t fucking care…
Like they ain’t even there…
Cuz I have hella feelings for you, I act like I don’t fucking care…
‘Cuz I’m so fucking scared…)
--------------------------
Sometimes, he would lie in the void, and Gaster would visit him. He would ramble and rant, telling Gaster all about his week. About what he saw Celest and Frisk doing.
Gaster, one time, asked him if he was in love with Celest. And he almost said yes, almost admitted to it. Almost fell for such an obvious question, with such a clear answer.
But then, he hesitated. Because he couldn’t admit to loving someone who had such disturbing behaviors. Couldn’t admit to loving someone who made him miserable.
So, he lied. He said no. That he cared for her, but loving her would be illogical. Would be disturbing.
He said terrible things about her, that day. Terrible things that she didn’t deserve to have said behind her back. Things that he hates himself for saying. Things he wouldn’t have even said about his parents.
Of course, Gaster could see through the lies. But it didn’t take away how badly he felt for the things he himself chose to say. The things he decided were justifiable to say about anyone.
--------------------------
(I’m only a fool for you…
And maybe you’re too good for me…
I’m only a fool for you…
But I don’t fucking care…at all…)
--------------------------
She’s too good for him. She deserves someone who is understanding. Someone who won’t berate and think badly about her for having an addiction, for having a problem.
She deserves someone who will openly love her.
Because despite knowing he’s in love, he still stands by his original promise to himself. The promise to never love romantically. Because, despite technically breaking that promise, he was right.
Love is torture.

I just made an astonishing discovery; Taylor Swift's 2008 NLOG (Not Like Other Girls) anthem, 'You Belong With Me', is transformed into an uplifting, women solidarity piece of encouragement to be yourself when you see it as being about a WLW highschool couple  - the super popular, perky, smart, girly femme, and a not-so-popular, sporty, creative, strong butch - and that the butch has been trying to change herself into something she's not so she'll match her preppy girlfriend's aesthetic and personality because she loves her girlfriend but feels like she embarasses her gorgeous gf because she's not the type you usually see around girls like her. The femme gf immediately notices and at first thinks maybe her own girly attributes are rubbing off on her as happens in most good new relationships, but soon realizes what butch gf is doing, so she gets her in private and encourages her to be herself and that she loves her butch gf the way she is and isn't ever embarrassed for a minute. The "she" the girl singing (the femme) about is the personality that the butch is trying to paint herself as, and the femme sees how unhappy she is when she's forcing herself to fit in with the femme's crowd. The femme ends the speech/song by pointing out how much time the butch has been spending on looking and acting the part of femme’s partner; with “the other girl” - AKA the girl that the butch is trying to be. The femme tells her that she (femme) was there with and for her all-along, that she will always be there to talk to about things like that, and that she fell in love with her because of who she is.

Sayang generally means “love” in Indonesia and Malaysia (however it can also mean “too bad, or what a waste” if used in other contexts, so it has a double meaning hahaha)
HOWEVER
in the Philippines, sayang means one thing and one thing only - “what a waste/too bad”. It has never been used as “love” in daily conversations nor in written ones so ;u;’’’

miya osamu — "tell me how to get back to summer paradise with you, and i'll be there in a heartbeat"
Tumblr media
osamu felt a small smile tug at the corner of his lips when he saw the seashell on his nightstand. it’s been almost a year, but your last gift to him is still the last thing he sees before he closes his eyes at night.
“hey, samu,” you called out, waving your arm wildly at him, “come take a look at this!”
osamu half-jogged towards you, white sand tickling his feet after every step. when he peered over your shoulder to look at the mysterious trinket you found, his curious expression turned to that of annoyance.
“oi, you made me run all the way here just for a dumb seashell?” he flicked your forehead lightly.
rubbing the spot where his pointer finger hit your forehead, you grumbled, “it’s not dumb.”
huffing, you shoved the cream-colored item into his hands and stomped away grumpily.
osamu rolled his eyes at your antics, you could be really childish at times. he smiled down at the seashell before he pocketed it.
he made sure that your last summer in hyōgo was filled with fun memories; maybe it was his last attempt to try and make you stay. it didn’t work, obviously.
his plan, selfish as it may seem, was simple. he brought you to the beach every other day, because he knows how much you love the ocean. he drags you along to the parties he’s invited to, because he knows how much you love to dance like no one’s watching. he so desperately wanted you to never leave, and foolishly, he thought he could change your mind. but as the days fly by and your flight to tokyo grows near, the only thing osamu succeeded in doing was to make himself fall deeper in love with you.
but now you’re hundreds of miles away from him, and when you left, you took a piece of his heart along with you. osamu thinks to himself, if a genie were to appear in front of him to grant him his one greatest desire, he would wish to spend another summer paradise with you.
