I wrote something so self indulgent for @hprecipe-recfest
because I just keep considering these two.
though to be honest it's more to do with Dennis missing Colin than it is just straight up Percy/Dennis

"thanks, come again!" the florist said, waving at bruce as he walked out the door.
he held onto the bouquet of red chrysanthemums and walked towards his bike. he kicked up the kickstand and hopped onto the bike. he pedaled and pedaled until he was at the front of the school. it was february fourteenth and the school was decked out in different shades of pink and red. his plan was to give you these flowers and then watch as you fall for him as he did for you. he parked his bike in the bike rack and went to wait for you.
bruce heard the whispers of people talking about him, like; who were those for? i wonder who those are for, and i think there for ___, someone he didn't even know. he held a bright smile as he saw you finally walk into school, you were fidgeting with the straps on your backpack when you saw bruce approach you with some red flowers.
his face flushed red and he started to second guess himself, maybe he wasn't ready for this yet, "here, uh, i got you these, for valentine's day!"
"wait, really? this is so pretty, thank you so much!" you thanked, giving him a hug as the people walking passed you guys 'awed' and gossiped about you two.
bruce walked you to your class and you both talked about school, baseball, anything and everything you thought was interesting enough to make a conversation about.
"alright, well, bye bruce! i'll see you later." you waved and went to sit down in your seat.
you put the flowers in your bag and took out your notebook and algebra textbook. not having anyone sit next to you began to get to you because you started doodling on the bottom right corner of the off white paper. five minutes went by and the bell finally rung, interrupting your autopilot like state.
"hey, (y/n)." robin tapped on your shoulder, his hand lingering on your shoulder for a short second after.
"hi! what's up?" you smiled, robin reciprocating the gesture.
"mm', nothing. got in a fight the other day, but uh, nothing really interesting." he said, subtly trying to impress you by showing you his bloodied bandaged hands.
"aw, looks like it hurts. are you—." you were interrupted by the teacher finally starting the lesson, the screech of the chalk on the blackboard making you cringe slightly. while you searched through your backpack for a pencil, robin noticed the dark red flowers wedged between your textbooks and notebooks.
"who're the flowers from?" he asked, trying to sound as nonthreatening and not jealous as possible.
"huh? oh, they're from bruce, i don't know if you've heard about him." you responded, not looking at him and instead at the board and then your paper.
"yeah i have, he's alright." he shrugged, focusing on the window that showed the outside.
the period passed and all robin could really think about was you, and bruce i guess but he wasn't the main focus. he gave you flowers? just because it was valentine's day or whatever? robin could give you flowers everyday, but he's not lame, so he'll do something better for you. the bell rung which signaled the time for second period to start.
"bye robin!" you called, giving him a quick hug and walking towards your next period.
you and bruce decided to eat lunch together in the field outside of the school buildings. as you were eating your food, bruce asked you a question.
"um, i have a game this weekend, do you wanna come watch?"
"aw, i'm really sorry bruce but i'm busy that day." you responded, not trying to be specific about as to not be rude.
"oh, that's fine, don't be sorry. what are you doing?"
"i'm going to the movies with my friend robin, i'll definitely be able to go to your next game though!" you said, trying to cheer him up, noticing his shift in tone.
"haha, good then." he laughed. bruce heard of robin, he was sort of a delinquent, someone who fought and caused trouble if provoked. he couldn't possibly like you, not as much as he did at least. as you both sat in content silence, bruce thought of how violent robin was. i mean, he heard about the fight between him and that one dude a while ago. did you like him? did you like bad boys?
before dropping you off at your next class he wrapped his arms around you and held you for a few moments, you hugged him back and watched as he walked to his next class, probably a few minutes late due to the fact that your classes were on the opposite sides of the school, but it was worth it for you. see, he can be a bad boy if that's what your into, he thought.
bruce zoned out while in class as he finished his work early and didn't have anything else to do. jotting down random doodles in the corner of his worksheet. he sighed and looked around the room, focusing on random miniscule details throughout the classroom, the 'READ' poster falling off the wall, hanging on by one pin. the bookshelf filled with extra textbooks. he noticed the opening of the door and like the rest of the kids in the class he turned to look at who walked in.
robin walked into the classroom ten minutes later than the second bell, signaling the start of class. he walked in and ignored the short stares at him, except for bruce. he glared and the other and then sat down at his seat, opting to stare at the window instead of completing his work.
bruce rolled his eyes; who does this kid think he is, he thought.
robin knocked on your door with a rose in his left hand. he shifted from left to right awkwardly as he waited for you to open the door. to kill time, he thought of movies he think you’d like; halloween? nah, the plot sounds kinda lame, texas chainsaw massacre? that sounds more badass.
"robin? are you okay?" you asked, wondering why he was staring at the ground for so long. you walked out a few minutes after he knocked and were confused as to why he was looking at the floor.
"huh—? OH, (y/n), you ready?"
"yeah, let's go," you grabbed his hand, starting to walk to the movie theater together. he felt more confident in himself now, you both approached the ticket booth in front and ordered tickets to the new horror movie coming out, texas chainsaw massacre. the title put you off a bit but robin seemed excited to see it so you tried to shake your nerves away.
an hour and twenty-three minutes passed and you both exited the theater, your house wasn't far from here and so you both stopped by various shops on your way back. it was mostly you shopping as robin didn't feel like getting anything but wanted to stay for you. as you were walking past a small ballpark you noticed a game was going on. squinting to get a better focus on who was at home base.
"it's bruce! maybe we can find some seats?"
"i don't know (y/n), aren't we late or something?"
"yeah a little, but your friend finney's there too."
"ugh, fine we can go." he rolled his eyes and you both walked to the fence where you could look into the game clearly, much clearer than the bleachers in your opinion. robin crossed his arms as he watched bruce play, praying that he trips or falls and makes an idiot out of himself.
as bruce missed the second ball he looked around, and saw you. oh god, i'm gonna fail; he thought. gaining his courage yet again, he was able to hit the ball, and got a home run. it was worth it when he was able to focus on your cheer amongst the crowd. his chest filled with pride as he walked over to you and, oh, robin.
"hey!! you did amazing out there! i do feel bad for missing most of your game though." you complimented, not paying attention to the weird look robin was giving bruce.
"thank you! it's honestly not a big deal. i'm glad you showed up anyway." he smiled, admiring your facial features, ignoring robin completely.
"yeah you did fine, let's go." robin said, wanting to leave this stuffy baseball field already. he held onto your arm and gripped your bicep gently.
"oh are you guys on a date or. . . ?" bruce questioned, a hint of jealousy in his tone.
"oh no, we're just hanging out, but we should get going soon, i'll see you tomorrow." you gave him a hug, holding him dearly.
"yeah, i'll see you tomorrow." he waved as you walked away, red blush all over his face. he tried to ignore the 'ooo's from his teammates but failed as he got even more red and giggly at the memory of you hugging him. the moment was so perfect he almost forgot robin was there, which made it even better. robin got to witness you hugging him. bruce biked home that day and passed a record store, maybe he could take you there tomorrow.

ATEEZ San- Confessions (oneshot)
Genre: Angst, fluff, suggestive, high school au, enemies to lovers au.
Pairing: San x Reader (fem)
Warnings: profanities, alcohol.
Tumblr media
On a scale of one to ten, you'd rate your life at your prestigious boarding school a nine.
You loved KQ Academy: a boarding school for the rich, spoiled brats of the country. The teachers were highly experienced and the other staff were really nice. The cafeteria food was great and the vending machines always had your favorite drinks. The bathrooms were clean and the classrooms, laboratories, and other activity rooms were large and spacious. There were three different sports fields, a large swimming pool, and a large athletics field. The dormitories were also really comfortable and overall impressive. Basically, your school was lit.
So why did you rate your great life here a nine? Two words: Choi San.
San was the only person here who got on your nerves. Not only was he a rich, spoiled brat, but he was also the most popular guy at school and the captain of the volleyball team. His pretty face screamed of nothing but trouble... for you.
You don't understand why San doesn't like you; ever since he joined your school in ninth grade, you both never got along despite being in the same friend group. Your friends tried their best to make you both decently talk to each other, but they gave up eventually when it clearly wasn't working; you both always argued about the smallest, stupidest things.
"Should I get another piercing?" Hongjoong asked, opening his strawberry yogurt.
"Where?" Yunho questioned. "Please, not on your ear! Let the poor thing breathe!" You chuckled, glancing at the many piercings on your twin brother's ears.
"I swear Hongjoong hyung is a masochist," Yeosang stated, making Mingi and Wooyoung burst out laughing.
"And he likes exhibitionism," Seonghwa said. Hongjoong rolled his eyes, quietly eating his yogurt; he was used to everyone teasing him.
"Hey guys!" you heard Choi San greet before he took his usual seat beside Wooyoung. You glanced at him, immediately noticing his disheveled hair and swollen lips.
"Oh god, San, who was it now?" Eunhee, Hongjoong's girlfriend, questioned.
"Na Yuri," San said with a smirk. "She took me behind the auditorium. There were no cameras there." You heard Jiwoo mumble a 'not surprise' from beside you, making you chuckle.
"And you managed to get off in less than five minutes?" Wooyoung asked, raising an eyebrow.
San fake gasped in shock. "What! Wooyoung, you know I don't fuck these girls. I've only made out with them."
"What, really?" Jongho asked in surprise.
"Yeah, I haven't slept with anyone other than my ex, Jina," San said, taking a bite of Yeosang's ice cream sandwich, earning a glare from the boy. You were quite surprised at this new information; the entire school thought San fucked a new chick every week. You wondered why he never said anything about it despite all the false claims.
"Y/N," you heard someone call you, catching all your friends' attention. You saw Kim Yonghee approach you with the sweetest smile on his face. He handed you your notebook that you had given him two days ago. "Thank you so much. Your notes really helped."
"You aced your test?"
He smirked. "Of course." He opened his mouth to say something, but one of his friends called him for football practice. "Well, I'll see you in math," he said with a wink before walking away.
"Oh, someone's blushing!" Eunhee teased.
Yunho chuckled. "Wow, Y/N, I wonder what's got you all pink."
"Yonghee is so fucking cute! I kinda want to date him," you squealed, earning a scoff from an unamused San. Yeosang raised an eyebrow at San who only shrugged. "Do you have an issue, San?" you asked, annoyed by his reaction.
"No, why would I?"
"Well, your reaction doesn't seem like it."
"Why would I care about you and that piece of shit?" he spat, looking away.
"You don't even know him!" your voice was raising.
"Here we go again," Yeosang muttered under his breath.
San glared at you. "As if you know about the way he screws around with—"
"So what? I'd rather be with someone like him than with someone like you," you stated in a cold tone. San's face fell, but he immediately put his pokerface on.
Seonghwa sighed. "Can you two stop fighting for once?"
"It's his fault," you said, crossing your arms over your chest.
"No, it's yours," San retorted. "You could've ignored me."
You were about to say something, but the bell rang. You glared at San before dragging Wooyoung and Mingi with you to your next class.
Tumblr media
A month later, you ended up in an FWB relationship with Kim Yonghee. So far, things were going really well.
You were at Seonghwa and Hongjoong's dorm with everyone. You noticed how San has been really quiet and sulky these past few days. Despite always arguing with him, you felt worried for him. You wanted to ask him if he was all right, but you knew he'd just roll his eyes or make a sarcastic comment.
You nudged Yunho who was sitting beside you. "Is San all right?" you whispered in his ear.
Yunho shook his head. "No, he's not okay. I don't know what happened, and he said he doesn't want to talk about it." You nodded, but you felt like Yunho was lying to you.
"Y/N, how are things going on between you and Yonghee?" Mingi asked.
"Good," you answered with a smile. "He's an absolute gentleman."
"Yeah, I could tell from last night," Eunhee teased, making you choke on nothing in particular, wondering how she found out about you sneaking Yonghee into your suite style dorm. "You're not as sneaky as you think you are, Y/N."
San slammed his can of sprite on the table, startling a few of you. "Sorry, I'm a little tired," he mumbled. "Yunho, I'm going to our room. I'll see you all tomorrow." You noticed Wooyoung and Seonghwa share a glance before Seonghwa nodded.
"I'm heading back as well. Good night guys," Seonghwa said, quickly getting up and following San. There was clearly something up with San and you really wanted to find out.
-
While you were having lunch with your friends, Yonghee came to your table. He kissed you gently, earning an 'aww' from Eunhee and Jiwoo.
"Hey, hey, hey, no kissing in front of her older brother," Hongjoong said sternly. You rolled your eyes; he was only older by eight minutes.
"Sorry, man," Yonghee chuckled. "Here," he handed you a few sheets. "Seunghun told me to give this to you. It's his part of the assignment you both are working on. He said you can arrange it however you'd like."
"Ah, tell him I said thanks," you said.
"Will do, doll." he kissed your head before leaving.
San witnessed the entire scene and he lost his appetite. He pushed his food around with his spoon, feeling heartbroken.
"Step up your game, bro," Mingi said to San in a low tone so that the others couldn't hear.
"What do you mean?" San questioned.
Mingi rolled his eyes. "We all know you like Y/N. Don't give her up easily."
"Well, she likes Yonghee."
"They're only friends with benefits," Hongjoong said, joining the conversation. "They're just fooling around. I know it might seem like she has feelings for him, but trust me, she doesn't."
San bit his lip anxiously. "But she hates me."
Hongjoong rolled his eyes. "I know my sister well enough to say that she doesn't hate you, Sannie. In fact, she was really hurt 'cause she thinks you hate her. You both should really stop fighting and assuming shit."
"She doesn't hate me?" San asked in surprise.
"No, she doesn't, you idiot," Mingi muttered with a sigh. "Now step up your game, San, before someone else sweeps her off her feet."
Tumblr media
You were watching the volleyball team practice for an upcoming inter-school match. San and Yeosang were on the team, so your entire group was here as well, watching them practice 'cause there was nothing else to do.
You had to admit, San was a great captain. He was so sweet to them and hyped them up every time they did well. It was even more fascinating to watch him play. When the team decided to take a break, he approached you, taking his water bottle from where you were sitting.
You couldn't help but check him out in the team uniform. The blue tank top and shorts exposed the muscles on his arms and thighs. He titled his head back, pouring the water into his mouth. You watched his Adam's apple bob with every gulp, and the way a few drops of water rolled down his lips and chin. His jawline looked sharper, and you saw a bead of sweat travelling down the side of his face. San looked undeniably attractive, especially with his new eyebrow piercing and dyed black hair; he already looked so good with his previous brown hair, and now he looked irresistible.
"Y/N, I asked you something," San said, snapping you out of your thoughts.
"Oh, uh, I'm sorry, what were you saying?" you hoped he didn't notice you checking him out. San and you have surprisingly not had any fights recently, and he wasn't making any comments to piss you off either. You wondered why he suddenly changed his behavior towards you after years of getting on your nerves.
He smirked, pointing to his little red bag. "Could you open my bag and give me the green towel?" You did as he said, unkowingly blushing. San noticed everything, but he didn't say anything about it yet. He wiped the sweat off his face with the towel, suddenly leaning in close to your face. Your eyes darted between his eyes and his lips, and your heartbeat sped up. San reached behind you to take his bag, shoving the towel and his water bottle inside. You let out a breath you didn't know you were holding, mentally reminding yourself to get your shit together. You glanced at your friends, relieved that they were too busy talking to notice the little scene between you and San; you knew they would tease the shit out of you if they saw what happened.
"Y/N," Yeosang called out. "You're coming for the party tomorrow night, no?"
"Of course," you said, a little confused as to why he suddenly asked. "Jiwoo would kill me if I missed it."
Jiwoo turned her head at the mention of her name. "Damn right, I would," she said with a nod.
Yeosang smirked. "You're coming in my car."
-
"I have to sit on San's lap?!" you half-yelled at Yeosang.
"Yeah, Yunho is sitting in the front with the Pegasus glass figurine he got for Jiwoo. The painting I got is in the backseat, and our bags are in the trunk. So you don't have a choice."
You bit your lip. "Fine."
You waited outside the car until San and Yunho came from their dorm. You wondered why San wasn't surprised when you told him you had to sit on his lap, but you brushed it off, assuming Yeosang would've told him earlier.
San was dressed in all black: ripped jeans, a leather jacket and a black t-shirt underneath it. You sat on his lap, closing the car door. He looked irresistible and his Chanel perfume made him smell so good, you didn't know how you'd survive the half an hour long car ride to Jiwoo's mansion without him noticing you inhaling his scent like air.
San gently wrapped his arms around your waist, pulling you closer to him so that you could sit comfortably. Yeosang started driving and you hoped time would go really fast.
Unfortunately, time seemed to be going really slow for you.
San pushed your hair to one side, making you lean back a little so that your back was pressed against his chest. "Sit comfortably, I don't bite," he whispered in your ear.
Yunho was talking about something, but you paid no attention. The only thing you could focus on was San's beautiful voice and laughs while you blankly stared out the window.
San noticed you weren't paying attention. He leaned forward a little, his lips coming in contact with the bare skin of your shoulder, making goosebumps arise on your skin. "Are you cold?" San teased when he saw the goosebumps on your bare thighs; you cursed yourself for wearing a short off-shoulder dress.
"Yeah, I am," you lied. San rubbed his palms together before placing them on your thighs. You gasped softly at his warm touch. He gently rubbed your thighs, trying to warm you up like as if he didn't know why you got goosebumps in the first place.
"We're here, guys," Yeosang announced, pulling up into Jiwoo's mansion that was lit up with a lot of LED lights.
You quickly got out of the car once Yeosang parked, running to hug Jiwoo.
"Happy eighteenth, Jiwoo!"
She chuckled. "Thank you, Y/N!"
"I can't wait to see you drunk!" you said with a giggle, excited that your friend could finally drink. She playfully rolled her eyes, dragging you inside to where half your school was while she told you which room you would be staying in. You were sure there were nearly two hundred people here, but you weren't surprised; Jiwoo's birthday parties were always like this.
"By the way, you're sharing a room with San tonight," Jiwoo said.
Your eyes widened. "What?! Why? Wasn't I supposed to be sleeping in your room?"
"Yeah," she said. "But, um... Yunho might be there and I don't think you'd want to witness us—"
"Okay, okay!" you half-yelled. "Why can't I sleep in Eunhee's room?"
"Ask Hongjoong if he's willing to switch with you," she chuckled and you groaned, knowing very well your twin brother would rather sleep next to his girlfriend than next to his friend.
But maybe he would agree? After all, he's quite protective of you and he wouldn't let you sleep next to a guy.
"Absolutely not," Hongjoong replied when you asked him to switch places with you.
"Joong! How can you let your baby sister sleep with a guy?" you whined.
He shrugged. "I trust San more than any other guy here. Besides, I need some privacy with my girl, you know? The dorms aren't a very great place to—"
You slammed your palm over his mouth, shutting him up. "I get it! I'll just deal with it."
You walked over to the bar, getting a whiskey and coke. You didn't have an issue with sleeping next to San; you just didn't know how you'd control yourself around him, especially after what happened hardly an hour ago.
After Jiwoo cut her huge birthday cake and popped a bottle of Champagne, some people from your grade sat down in one of the rooms to play truth or dare. Wooyoung and Mingi literally begged you to play and of course, you couldn't refuse.
"All right, I'm gonna spin it," Jongho said, spinning an empty beer bottle. It landed on Yeosang. "Truth or dare, hyung?" Jongho asked.
"Truth," he answered.
"I got one!" Seonghwa said, turning to smirk at Yeosang. "Do you like a certain Japanese girl who's in your economics class?" You chuckled, glancing at the Japanese girl who was sitting right across Yeosang.
Yeosang smirked. "Of course I like my girlfriend." Your jaw dropped and so did many other's. You glanced at Mayumi who was clearly blushing; she reminded you so much of Yeosang.
"Kang Yeosang! You sly shit!" Wooyoung yelled, playfully tackling his friend to the ground.
"I knew something was happening between them!" Hongjoong stated with a laugh, making Mayumi turn pinker than she already was.
After a few more rounds, some people left, making the circle of people smaller. Eunhee spun the bottle and it landed on herself.
"Truth or dare?" Mingi asked.
"Truth."
"Is Hongjoong hyung a dom or a sub?" Mingi asked with a smirk.
"Both, but mostly a dom," she answered, unbothered.
"I'm not even surprised," Wooyoung said before spinning the bottle. It landed on you.
"Truth or dare, Y/N?" Wooyoung asked, a smile dancing on his lips.
"I'll go with dare."
Wooyoung grinned mischievously. "I dare you to . . . give San a hickey." You choked on nothing in particular.
"In front of you all?"
"Obviously not!" Hongjoong said in disgust. "I'd rather not witness that."
Your friends cheered for you when you got up and dragged San along with you to the room you both had to share tonight. Your heart raced with every step you took, and when he closed the door, the only sound you could hear was your pounding heartbeat.
San removed his shoes before sitting on the middle of the bed. You took off your heels, getting on the bed as well.
"Where do you want it?" you asked, avoiding eye-contact.
"Below my collarbone or here," he pointed to an area of the left side of his neck. You decided to give it on his neck because you've never given a collarbone hickey, so you didn't want to screw it up and embarrass yourself in front of the man who was currently driving you crazy.
San sat against the headboard of the bed, letting you straddle his lap. You placed a hand at his nape and the other at his shoulder, leaning in to place your lips on his neck. You gently brushed your lips against his skin before kissing around the area for a while. Your hand at his nape moved into his hair, tugging on it. San groaned softly, hands gripping your waist while he tilted his head to give you more access. You started to suck on his skin, making sure you bit him gently and gave him a few little licks. San's hands pushed you down on his growing bulge, making you moan against his skin. You pulled away from his neck, eyes instantly locking with his. You glanced between his eyes and his lips, unknowingly biting your own. San freed your bottom lip with his thumb, running it over your lip.
"I'd like to bite that lip," San said in a low tone. You couldn't control yourself anymore. You crashed your lips onto his and he responded just as eagerly as you. San took your bottom lip in between his teeth, gently pulling and biting on it, making you moan. He smirked, pulling away. "You have no idea how long I've waited for this."
"Don't you hate me?" you asked, shocked by his little confession.
San flipped you onto your back, hovering over you. He pressed his bulge against you. "What do you think?" he whispered, making you blush. "Y/N, you drive me absolutely crazy. I've liked you ever since ninth grade." Your eyes widened; he has liked you ever since he joined your school?!
"But— Then why were you always fighting with me?" you couldn't help but ask, even though right now wasn't a very... appropriate time.
"Remember how I was back then? I was so nerdy and you liked guys who were the complete opposite of that," he said, cupping your cheek. "No matter how hard I tried to get you to like someone like me, it just never worked. You always liked seniors and dated playboys. And then when I started screwing around, you still didn't like me. I guess... I guess that's why I fought with you a lot and it got worse over the years."
"San, you were perfect," you murmured. "I always thought you were way too good for me, that's why I never really bothered." you ran your hand through his hair. "I'm sorry for making you change yourself..."
San shook his head, lying beside you on the bed. "It's not your fault. I was fifteen and stupid, Y/N. Besides, I'm used to being like this now." You bit your lip, not knowing what to say. "Y/N, I hated seeing you with Yonghee. I know you guys aren't dating, but the thought of you with him or with anyone else... I really hate it," he looked like he wanted to say something, but he was hesitating a lot. You cupped his cheek, giving him an encouraging smile.
San took a deep breath. "Um, Y/N, do you... feel the same way about me?" You immediately kissed him as an answer, making him blush and sigh in relief.
"Well, my dare is complete," you murmured, fingers running over the hickey you had given him. You leaned in, placing a soft kiss on it. "How about we continue from where we left off?" you whispered in his ear.
San smirked, pulling you close to his body by your waist. "Mhmm, I'd like that."

P for The Kane Chronicles? (I’m pretty sure the Magician!Percy ‘verse doesn’t count since the ask game said ‘invent’.)
(Ask post that Anon is referencing is HERE)
Probably not quite in the spirit of the ask, but since I'm bored and I like playing around in the Kane Chronicles sandbox, you're getting a two for one special, so have a TKC AU and a Magician!Percy 'verse AU:
(Under the cut; enjoy my ramblings)
1. The Kane Chronicles but Carter and Sadie are in college AU
-I've got angstier and more epic TKC AUs in my notes [Highlights include: Desjardins-bites-it-instead-of-Iskandar-and-everything-is-actually-worse AU, Julius-and-Ruby-both-die-and-Carter-and-Sadie-get-raised-together-in-England AU, Zia-finds-Carter-and-Sadie-early AU, Doughboy-Saves-The-World AU (No I will not elaborate), Carter-and-Sadie-can-see-ghosts AU, god-reversal (So Carter has Isis, Sadie has Horus; I know things are the way they are in canon because reasons but I think Sadie should get a crown, actually), and, because it's me: everything goes wrong at the end of Throne of Fire while they're in the Duat, Sadie and Carter get thrown back in time] but this one has fluff, absurdity, and angst so here we go.
-So I know very little about how College Admissions: Non-American Edition works, but suffice to say, Sadie's starting at NYU as a first-year architecture major. Carter's been online at a German uni that Sadie can never remember the name of, but he's a math major specializing in something highly specific and nerdy.
-(Just. . .go with the conceit of the AU, for hilarity reasons. I haven't actually written this yet, so sorry to non-American college students)
-So Sadie and Carter basically make it through puberty with minimal incidents; the accidental magic kicks up a bit when they both hit 16, but other than that, they manage just fine.
-And then Sadie's grudgingly home for Christmas because her grandparents are footing the bill for that tuition (But, uh, they haven't gotten along great since Sadie came out as bisexual at 14).
-Anyway. New York. Distance. Fresh start. Architecture, because geometry rules and Sadie's going to spite the wanker of a math teacher she had Year 10.
-She comes home for Christmas to her grandparents, estranged brother and her father whom she hasn't seen since she was 13, and her father blows up the bloody British Museum.
-Sorry, just the Rosetta Stone. So much better.
-From there, things are more-or-less canon for The Red Pyramid, but with added:
-Sadie flirting with Zia because the face Carter makes is too good (Especially when Zia stops trying to kill them and flirts back)
-Carter using that math major to basically create and launch Captain America's Shield But Magic at people
-Carter's twenty and not fourteen so I can immediately incorporate my "Carter's a polyglot" headcanon off the bat
-House of Life politicking
-Sadie's ongoing feud with American TSA
-Set makes increasingly snarky comments about how at least the House sent young people old enough to drive while Sadie desperately tries to hide the fact that she doesn't know how to drive while Carter and Zia know how to drive way, way too many different vehicles
-The trade-off is that Sadie is the only one of them who knows how to move through a city without getting desperately lost or attracting amounts of attention because, her words, "she at least received that education in how to pretend to be a fucking boring person."
-#LetTheKaneSiblingsSayFuck2021
-Everyone figures out the Nephthys/Zia/shabti thing a bit quicker here and get directions, at least. Zia isn't Carter's first crush or would even be his first girlfriend (Or partner, because I am pushing the Bi!Kanes agenda as well) but he's also prone to be really all-in and romantic each time
-Sadie, to her credit, only pushes him into the pool over it once.
-Desjardins, in less funny news, is much less impressed with the whole "Let the Kanes do their own thing," and periodically send handlers bearing death threats to Brooklyn House.
-Which is both sometimes funny (Kindergarteners terrorizing magicians who had no idea what they were in for) and really, really not (Sadie and Carter facing veteran magicians with decades of experiences on them and who are absolutely willing to kill the Kanes).
-Anyway, Throne of Fire. Isis and Horus temporarily stop speaking to each other because there's now a feud over whether it should be Sadie or Carter on the throne, because Sadie's younger, but she's way better at magic and Carter is vehemently Team Doesn't Want The Throne
-This is mostly hilarious because Carter and Sadie are torn between an excuse to go off on each other for sibling-related shit and fucking with their on-and-off godly visitors.
-No one is ever sure how this is resolved by the end of the AU trilogy because Carter takes the throne but Sadie lurks in the corner and grins way too much for anyone sane's liking.
-She and Set get along famously in this AU. Amos is unnerved.
-Sadie doesn't get attacked in London by Babi and Nekhbet, but coming out of one of her architecture classes, which makes. . .for interesting results from onlookers, who mostly consist hungover drama students who think they're hallucinating and one blonde daughter of Athena
-Oh yeah, and this AU comes with bonus college!demigods who are constantly off-stage and convinced Carter and Sadie are minor gods who like to fuck with them.
-Annabeth's TAing a bunch of Sadie's intro classes and rotating between three theories of:
-1) Sadie is a daughter of Poseidon who managed to slip through everyone's nets and she and Carter are the di Angelos 2.0 (This theory gives Percy heartburn when he hears it)
-2) Sadie is some kind of monster playing the long con and working to destroy Camp Half-Blood (This theory spawns after Annabeth finds out Sadie is capable of magic and due to Sadie alternating between being very friendly and very stand-offish--as Sadie tries to figure out if Annabeth is a rival magician)
-3) Sadie is a minor god in disguise. She can't quite justify why a god would be taking Intro to Architecture 101 at NYU in the 21st century, but Sadie reeks of too much power and Annabeth would never put anything past any god at this point.
-Percy is so fucking confused.
-Actual conversation Sadie and Carter have about Sadie's Weird TA With The Knife And Her Surfer Boyfriend: "--they could be gods. They could be monsters sent by Apophis." "Apophis got a magic nuke to the face, brother dear. I think we're fine. Probably magicians trying to keep a low profile." "When it's gods, I'm going to say I told you so for the next century." "If you're so sure, bet on it, brother."
-It's gods. Just the wrong kind. Sadie now owes Carter twenty bucks out of the Brooklyn House Betting Pool (That doesn't exist if you're Amos or under 15).
-Anyway, I'm pretty invested in this AU for the shenanigans, because I think every children's series deserves a "They Were Mostly Adults And Disasters Of A Different Kind" AU.
2. Magician!Percy 'verse but the Kanes are in San Francisco during the Quest for Artemis AU
-The sheer chaos potential of this is excellent, which is partly why I'm including it here. It's adjacent to TTC, so Percy's fourteen (We'll call it post-AU Throne of Fire, but the timeline's iffy in this 'verse because I'm fudging ages for Percy, Carter, and Sadie).
-Please note that Bianca is alive and well at this point in time; due to Percy's absence, another Hunter (We'll call her Agafya because Phoebe's still alive for BotL) came along and bit the dust in the graveyard saving Bianca's life.
-Percy, Carter, and Sadie are in the area after getting a lot of really weird reports from the Fifty-Sixth Nome relating to Mount Tam, and basically accidentally drop themselves in on the entire battle when Sadie's trying to get them through the Duat to see what the hell is happening.
-For added fun, according to my notes, this is right when Luke's offering Thalia the quite dead Ophiotaurus's entrails so that she may destroy Olympus.
-In the original universe, the entrails get destroyed by Frederick Chase on a Camel Sopwith.
-In this universe, Percy pulls himself to his feet first and threatens to burn Sadie's eyebrows off for dropping him on animal guts, of all things, before cheerfully introducing himself to a slightly stunned mix of Titans, Hunters, demigods, monsters, and one (1) goddess.
-All options being equal, Kronos probably would've taken the first option.

"hey, let's go eat." chan smiled while pressing up against the other australian.
felix hummed, not really listening as he gripped the remote in his hands and flickered the buttons with his thumbs. "where?"
"uh, that one restaurant that's like, thirty minutes away from here-"
felix glanced a glare at chan before turning back to the screen of the tv. "any reason?"
"they have a special." chan then proceeded to put he flyer in front of felix's line of sight, making the younger grunt.
felix paused his game, sighing and glaring at his friend. "alright, fine. but you're paying." 
chan grinned, "fine by me. get dressed and look decent, don't pull a jisung." 
"...i'm right here." 
______
"hello! table for three?" the host asked as soon as they walked inside. 
chan nodded, following the host with his two friends. as soon as they sat down they were handed menu's. 
"would you like to order drinks right now or when you order your food?" 
felix scanned the options, not seeing the special that chan had mentioned. he was gonna question the older until said man asked the host about it. 
"uh, i saw that y'all have a special on a flyer…" 
"oh! yes we do! we got the word out this morning, that's why it's still not on the menu. the special lasts until next friday. would you like to order that?"
"do you guys want it?" chan turned to them. 
"what's the special?" jisung rose a brow. 
the host smiled, "fettuccine alfredo pasta." 
felix hummed, thinking about it. "yeah i'd like that."
"me too." 
chan nodded, turning to the host who took out a notepad and pen. although she wasn't a waiter, she could take down orders and hand them over to the cooks. 
"great. any drinks?" she asked while tapping her notepad with the tip of the pen.
jisung nodded, "peach tea for me." 
"i'll take lemonade." 
"sprite if you have that." 
she nodded and scribbled it down before repeating their order to make sure she didn't make any mistakes. once everything was confirmed and settled,  she excused herself to order their assigned waiter to fetch their drinks. 
jisung followed her trail until she opened the kitchen doors, noticing something- more like someone, for a split second. 
"well, while we wait, let's catch up." chan sighed while staring at his friends.
"on what?" jisung asked while turning to him. 
the older thought for a second before shrugging, "i don't know, what have you guys been up to lately?"
felix propped his elbow on the table,  resting his chin on his palm. "nothing, i'm enjoying my break to the fullest."
"by being locked up and playing video games?" chan rose a brow, obviously disappointed. 
"at least he's doing something, i've been sleeping most of the time." 
"he only gets up when he needs to pee or eat." felix chuckled. 
chan frowned, "that explains a lot…" 
"anyway, what about you? changbin-hyung told me someone had the hots for you and vice versa." 
the older sputtered, "th-that's not true. and maybe it's just a new friend." 
jisung and felix rose a brow, sharing a glance before sighing. they had the habit of being synchronized without wanting to, which many found scary and or amusing. 
"you're bad at lying, you know that?" jisung chuckled, glancing at the kitchen doors that opened as a waiter came out with a tray with drinks. he smirked at his confirmation,  it's been a while since he's been this entertained. 
chan blushed, avoiding eye contact. "i know…" 
felix laughed, jisung was known for reading others. changbin was known for it too, and it was always funny when someone got exposed or confronted. 
the waiter walked up to them, placing down their drinks. "your food is ready and i'll bring it right now, i'm sorry the sudden delay in your drinks, we had a minor...issue." 
"no it's fine! thank you!" chan smiled as he took his drink and sipped from it. 
jisung stared at the kitchen doors, once they were opened he tried to find the familiar face, and he smirked to himself when he saw it. he wasn't going to say anything yet, he liked waiting it out. 
"so, who is it?" felix jabbed at chan, wanting answers.
"i- you don't know him, he's not in your major." chan nibbled at the straw. 
"and? i still wanna know." 
"it's probably someone older than him, maybe by a year? let me guess, he's also studying music production? and you met him in the cafeteria." jisung smiled when chan choked. 
felix stared at his roomate in awe, "holy fuck." 
chan gasped, staring at jisung with wide eyes. "you scare me. you're hanging out with minho aren't you?" 
"sure." 
"what do you mean sure-" 
felix grinned, "so he's right?" 
"...yeah… i'm amazed you even guessed the gender…" chan pouted, gnawing at the straw again. 
"thank you, i try." jisung sipped from his drink as the waiter returned with their food. once the waiter left he spoke again, "what's his name?" 
"why are you asking?" 
"cus it's about time you had a love life." felix rolled his eyes,  "you barely get sleep, and now you have the hots for someone? you need to go out and live a little. " 
chan scoffed, the tips of his ears still red. "yeah, look who's talking. you're probably staying inside the dorms and not going out cus you're still upset about the y/n situation." 
jisung gaped, amazed chan could strike like that. "not wrong-" 
felix growled, "y/n has nothing to do with how i'm spending my break. we broke up, that's it. nothing more nothing less to it. no hard feelings." he frowned and stuffed his mouth with some pasta, the taste making him pause and ponder.
jisung stared at the young australian, "you're still eating out of y/n's hands you know." 
and he choked, the only thought in his mind being  'no wonder this tastes familiar.' 
chan gave felix's back a few pats, " jisung stop joking around." 
said male frowned, "i'm not. y/n's in the kitchen, pretty sure y/n is the one who cooked the food." 
felix heaved, "it...does taste familiar…
"and to think you were over y/n.." 
"i am!" 
"are not, but we'll talk about this later. chan, you never told me the guys name-" 
"yah! i'm not telling." 
________ 
"you're not going back with us?" jisung asked as they exited the restaurant.  
the fact y/n was one of the chefs was forgotten once they went back to chan's possible love life topic. felix didn't really think anything of it until they got up to leave. 
"no i wanna check out that store. i'll go back on the bus." felix waved them off. 
chan frowned, "sure, ok… call if you need anything." 
"will do." 
jisung rolled his eyes, following chan to the older's car for the ride home. felix walked inside the store that was across the restaurant they had eaten at, he looked around, heart racing. 
he saw a small penguin plushie, smiling at it's fluffiness once he grabbed it. he made sure he had money before going to the register, paying and walking out. just as he did, he glanced at the restaurant and saw you. 
you stood there, lighting up a cigarette. when you glanced at him, you froze, both of you did. 
felix gripped the bag in his hand. it's been a month since the two of you broke up, quite a small amount of time considering everything. 
the reason the two of you ended things was no mystery to eithers friend group. you had suddenly gotten distant, claiming to focus on exams, which wasn't a lie. felix grew upset with the absence of you, and whenever he tried to reach out, you sounded uninterested.  
and it wasn't that you weren't,  you were just going through things. felix took it the wrong way, and the tip of the iceberg was when he saw you all touchy with someone else at a party you had said you wouldn't attend. 
instead of facing you, he played fire with fire. 
"hi…" your voice was soft, and you stared across from you, not wanting to face him. 
"hi." felix now stood next to you, staring across the street as well. 
there was a silence, and felix then glanced at the puff of smoke you let out. he was questioning himself, maybe he should go and wait for the last bus. maybe he should have gone back home with his friends. maybe-
"i'm sorry." 
felix snapped his head towards you, staring at you like a lost puppy. you were still facing across the street, cigarette in hand. 
"i'm sorry i didn't face you like i should have. i'm sorry i didn't talk things through with you… i really have no justifications for anything i did. maybe i was just confused, we were both just trying to pass our classes..you were just trying to make our relationship work… and i...i… " 
"you gave up." felix finished your sentence, now staring at the bag in his hands. 
you finally turned to look at him, "no... i got bored of trying. i got bored of us. of you."
each word made felix stagger, and you took a second to grab his hand, holding it gently. he blushed, staring down at your hand on his. 
"but i didn't want to let go of you." 
he swallowed, "then why did you…" 
"that's…a good question." you let go of his hand, and he was quick to take it again. 
"i'm sorry too. i think...we lacked communication." 
you smiled a bit, taking the cigarette in your mouth again.  "obviously...”
felix squeezed you hand, “do you think...we could try again?”
“you don’t hate me?”
he shook his head, “we were both at fault, do you hate me?”
“no....”
“so...wanna start from zero?”
you sighed, the puff of smoke intoxicating his nostrils. you didn’t pick up on smoking until after the two of you broke up, “yeah...i’d like that.”
“me too...and...jisung said you cooked our food, that true?”
“felix, i have no idea who comes into the restaurant. i just do my job.” you laughed softly, shaking your head, “but i’m the only cook today, so yeah, i guess i did. you enjoy it?”
he nodded, “i always enjoyed your food, still do.”
you tugged at his hand, “want a ride home?”
“yeah...”

Russian Roulette - Pt. 5
Tumblr media
In this series, you will find: Alternative Universe, Soulmate plot, Angst, Fluff. n this chapter, you will find: You and Derek think that you got a clue about the alpha, and you'll go investigate. Word count: 1.701 Pairings: Reader x Platonic!Stiles; Reader x Derek Original characters of this chapter: None. Warnings: English is not my main language <3 Yeah, it was based on Russian Roulette by Rihanna Russian Roulette series: Chapter Four | Chapter Six RUSSIAN ROULETTE MASTERLIST TEEN WOLF MASTERLIST
It wasn't so hard to explain what happened in the school. Actually, Scott made all the work telling that Derek was trying to kill all of you. You said to the authorities that you received a message from Scott and, thinking that he had some kind of problem, you went there to help. You haven't said you saw Derek or something because you would feel awful to incriminate an innocent. So, you just simply said that you did not see anything and took the kids out of school. Sebastian was so proud of you that he said to everyone that the girl who took the teenagers out of school was his Au Pair.
While you're doing the children's laundry, you have begun to think about the message you had received yesterday, falsely attributed to Scott and who took you to school. Well, you could track the origin of the messages and find out something that could help you to find the Alpha. Yeah, it could work!
You call Stiles, to talk about your idea, and then, you go to his house.
"How do you learned to track this?"
Stiles was looking at you, curious, while you enter his house. You gave him a smile.
"I had a hacker phase. But don't worry, I can't do more than this and change another's person Facebook password."
You go upstairs and Stiles opens his bedroom door. Both of you almost had a heart attack when you saw Derek there. You curse in your main language, with your hand in your chest.
"You scared me!"
Stiles put his hands up looking at Derek.
"Calm down, ok, she knows the truth."
Hale's green eyes got narrow, and he gave a step forward to Stiles's direction. He wasn't happy at all.
"What the hell you think you're doing, Stiles?! We can't put one more person into all that shit!"
It was your turn to gave a step forward to Derek and Stiles's direction. Your gaze meets Derek's eyes.
"Calm down, Stiles and Scott didn't tell me anything. I'd found out by myself."
Derek analyzes you. You weren't lying. He put his guard down and nod with his head, and you put yourself in front of Stiles's laptop. Stiles and Derek approach you, looking at the laptop's screen.
"Okay, Derek, I'll tell you my idea: We will track the origin of the messages that the kids and I had received to get to the school. I think it could give us a clue about the Alpha."
Hale arch his eyebrows, looking at you. You were smart.
"Sounds good." He said, and you give him a soft smile.
You start to push a few buttons on the laptop. A few minutes later, the localization was on the screen: It came from the Hospital, and who sent the messages was Melissa McCall.
"It can't be right." Said Stiles, with his hand on his head. He was scared "We should tell Scott?"
"Not yet." You heard Derek's voice "We need to investigate it first."
Stiles nods.
"Okay, we'll go now?"
You got up from the chair, your eyes narrowed.
"We? Oh, no, no." You approach Stiles and cross your arms "You'll go to the lacrosse game, and be a common teenager. I'll solve this."
"But you-"
"Stiles. No."
"Damn!"
"But you can't go by yourself." You heard Derek said, looking at you.
"Okay, so..." You took your phone from Stiles's desk and look at Hale "I'll send you a message, and we'll go together."
"Oh, look! The repair of your car is great! I can't even notice that I hit it."
It was the first thing you notice when you saw Derek's car. You sit in the passenger seat, and he looks at you.
"It wasn't that bad." He turns the car on and, now, you are going to the Hospital "How do you found out about... everything?"
You think it's better to hide some details of the story, at least until you find out about your marks and about the ginger lady. That's the reason you replies:
"It was because of that day in the woods. I thought it was just a nightmare, but then I analyzed it. So I met a guy, who taught me a few things."
"What guy? Chris Argent?"
He glares at you with his eyes narrowed, clearly suspicious about you.
"No. Haytham Conwell. He said to me that I need to stay away from you and Scott, and said that I can't trust you."
Despite your denial, Derek's still suspicious about you. His serious face is focused on the road.
"Maybe he's right."
"I don't think so."
He arches his eyebrows.
"Why not?"
"Because you've saved my life. I'm not the kind of person who forgets people who help me. So... Thank you. I owe you one."
You had clearly taken him by surprise. His body became less tense, and his expression softened.
"Stiles was close to me when you call him." He said, with his guard down at least a little. "We had just caught Scott, he was out of control that night because of the full moon. But when he listened to your voice... He just runs to help you. Those kids love you."
"I know." You gave him a soft smile "I love them too. It's an odd part of being Au Pair, you know? You just have your maternal instincts higher to another level, and then the kids become just like they are your own."
It was Derek's turn to let escape a soft smile. Since you entered Stiles's bedroom, Derek was watching your heartbeats, to make sure you aren't a liar. But you're not. You're just... too good for this wild supernatural world.
Derek parks his car in front of the hospital. You let out a long sigh.
"Okay," You said, looking at his green eyes "I'll come in. I'll call you if I found something."
He nods positively with his head for you, and you go out of the car. Derek had sent to you a few information before you got into his car, like the name of the nurse of his uncle and where are his bedroom. You enter the hospital with all that info in mind, and you go directly to Peter's bedroom. But he isn't there. That's the time you take your phone and call Derek.
"Uh, I'm sure I'm in the correct bedroom, and there's no one here."
"Damn, get out, he's the Alpha!"
Crap.
"You shouldn't be here."
You look to your right and see the nurse.
"Oh, there you are! You give me a lot of troubles with that bullet, you know?"
You look to your left and there he is, Peter Hale, with part of his face burnt.
"I would love to give you more problems than it."
"You know what? I think you're pretty brave for a human. I mean, I could have killed you that night in the woods but I just wanted to play a little."
Derek appears, running and putting himself in front of you.
"(Y/N), get out."
Peter and Derek roared to each other, and the nurse behind you took a dagger out of her clothes. Then, a shiver spread all over your body with a cold feeling. What was that sensation?
Derek attacks Peter, and the nurse tries to hit you with the dagger. Surprisingly, you deflect and hold his wrist, hitting her in the face with your elbow. The nurse staggered back with your hit, and you don't waste the opportunity: You hit her in the face with your right punch, and then you did the same with your left punch. As a final hit, you kick her chest and she fell back. His head hit's a glass table, and she stays unconscious.
You look at your hands, scared. You don't know how to fight like that. What the hell has happened?
The sound of a body falling on the floor push you off your own thoughts. When you turn back, you see that Peter had thrown Derek on the floor. He's bleeding. Instinctively, you push your gun and shoot at Peter. Your shoots didn't hit him, and he catches you by your neck, raising you from the floor.
"There's nothing more dangerous than a brave dumb, don't you think?"
He throws you against the wall, and you fell to the floor. There, while you try to compose yourself, you see Peter walking in Derek's direction.
"I didn't know what I was doing when I killed Laura, I'd lost control! Look, we're a family. We don't need to fight. Think about it."
Peter walks to his nurse and takes her in his arms. He looks at you.
"See you soon, (Y/N)."
After Peter leaves, you stood up and walk to Derek. He has stood up already and has blood on his shirt. He was hurt.
"Do you will heal?" You ask him, looking at the huge cut on his belly.
"Yeah, but slowly because it was made by an Alpha."
"We better take care of it, so. I have some first aid at home. I'll hide you in my bedroom, so, please, you need to stay quiet because I don't wanna be fired."
Derek arch his eyebrows. He wasn't used to this kind of thing.
"I'm used to take care of myself."
"But you don't have to do this all the time, okay? Let me take care of it. Don't worry. I owe you one, remember?"
The smile you gave him just throw away every sort of excuse and argument he could have to say to you. You turn yourself and, while you were walking, you said:
"I'll drive!"
And what choices did he have? He just follows you and listening to your heartbeat, trying to catch all kinds of lies. But he can't detect anything. Actually, he hasn't any reason to get suspicious about you, but life has taught him that he needs to be careful with people. But based on all of the things he saw and know about you, who was just a few ones, you are just a common woman.
Okay, he would give you a chance to gain his trust.

His eyes narrow as he gazes up at John, noting the residual tension in his shoulders, the dark circles under his lower lids, and the way he is avoiding Sherlock’s eyes like a bi-polarized magnet. He knows John Watson inside and out, like the perfectly balanced coils and gears of a beautifully balanced grandfather clock, and yet John keeps surprising him. It’s uncanny, the way he keeps on being so utterly and wonderfully unpredictable.
John Watson’s Moon by patternofdefiance (E, 11,314 w., 1 Ch. || Werewolf John, First Time, BAMF John, First Time, Anal, Fleeting Depictions of Violence) – Sherlock finds out John is a werewolf and wants to see the transformation. It, uh, gets really kinky.

He protects me with all he can without question, and this loyalty is surely more than I deserve. Or: Sherlock is counting his blessings.

The Acronym by DancingGrimm (T, 15,057 w. || Humour) – "'Bee Ay Em Eff'. Hm, that's a new one on me. Do you know what it means, Sherlock?" John might not know what it means, but there are many little ways in which he proves the acronym suits him.

Invisible by chappysmom (K+, 25,947 w., 11 Ch. || No Slash, semi-canon compliant) – John had had the knack for as long as he could remember. It wasn’t that he could become invisible, exactly.

I got witcher!Ciri too! I kind wonder wha would happen if she died tho, dont wanna put geralt or her through that but I love angst lmfaoo. The game got really confusing at point cause I you have to learn a bunch of politics and how this world works and I didnt pay that much attention so I'm sure I'll get those moments in my second playthrough too I'm playing something in the hearts of stone thnig, it was lower level so I'm assuming you should play that first? a main quest with the asshole ghost in the wedding and wow I fucking hate it, it's so umcomfortable to watch geralt be this gross n weird lol, I'm not too familar when Shani either so watching her get mad when I get geralt to say he wouldnt do what the ghost is doing is so annoying lol, OH AND the ghost is a creepy fuck! shani babe you can do much much better than an asshole who talks about his dick and fucking "maidens" every other sentence!! Geralt really does get thrown into so much shit huh I'm tempted to read the books cause I do rly like the world and most- some characters but yeah reading about yen being yen wold be one of the things to stop me, what are some of the plot points that put you off? if you don't mind sharing And yeah I'd so be up for more content esp with ciri, would be cool to see them work together, even with how combat works in this game with npcs lmao
Woo witcher Ciri ending! :D If you enjoy putting yourself through pain I recommend looking up that other ending on YouTube because there are definitely some nice angst shots in the cut scenes. I watched and then promptly went, “I don’t need to play that for myself” lol. But yeah, hard agree on things getting confusing, especially towards the end. I completely missed stuff like the fact that my actions would actually impact this war, rather than the war simply being backdrop, or that Ciri’s powers were more than just the ability to teleport short distances. So by the time I was getting called on to murder kings and Avallach was taking us to totally different worlds, I had a very John Mulaney approach of, “This might as well happen. Things are already so goddamn weird.” Which, you know, really isn't the game's fault. It's what I get for jumping into the third game first and while I don't regret that at all, the story has absolutely deserved a second playthrough where I actually understand all the basic stuff I should have known going in.
Yeah, Hearts of Stone comes first. You can do any of the side quests you’d like from either DLC, but I’d recommend keeping Blood & Wine’s main storyline for the final push. But yeah, that ghost dude is, uh… something. I quite like the wedding on the whole—I really enjoy Shani, dancing is fun, O’Dimm is being a wonderfully evil dude—but yeah, dead dude is definitely a creep. Which is partly one of the things that turned me off from the books. It has the same ‘Guy trying to write women’ energy of the games but… worse. I’ve read a lot of excerpts over the years and so many of them turn me off. There are a ton of small things, like Triss importantly informing the witchers (who are all like 100+ years old??) about periods and that Ciri can’t train today because of hers (a moment that much of the fandom celebrates as... progressive?), or Triss and Yen getting super catty with one another over Geralt, to much bigger things like Ciri nearly getting raped/being involved in intimate acts with really questionable consent. A lot of the Witcher has a “This didn’t age well” vibe to it which, to be fair, isn’t entirely the fault of the author. The story is the product of 90’s Polish culture and, again, a man trying to write some pretty complex subjects from an arguably ignorant place, which makes much of the work eye-rolling for me at best, outright uncomfortable at worst. (Which I think is why I enjoy the games far more. I have agency in this questionable world, the ability to tailor it somewhat to my own beliefs and desires, which makes moments when that's taken away, like Geralt automatically commenting on how good Yen looks at a funeral, all the more frustrating). I obviously am not a Geralt/Yen fan, which sours a great deal of the plot. From what I got through the pacing felt like a slog and, more importantly, much seems to have been lost in the translation from Polish to English. (I continually hear about how amazing the dialogue is, but sadly that hasn’t come across in translation for me. Much of it is... awkward.) The parts I’ve heard about/read excerpts of that I’m most interested in—Geralt’s hanza—ends tragically and I’m… just not here for that right now. Which isn’t to say it’s badly written or anything, just that it’s not my personal cup of tea, especially nowadays with a pandemic and what all going on lol. I look at what I know of the series as a whole and go, “Do I really want to read five books filled with outdated representation for women, that old-school fantasy violence that turned me off GoT, with a super depressing ending, all wrapped up in an iffy translation and a style I don’t think does well in long-form storytelling? … Not really.”
Still loved most of the short stories and I’ve heard that many people liked the audio book versions when they couldn't get into the text, so I might give that a go someday. I’d prefer to actually have read all the source material for a fandom I’m spending so much time in, but I sadly just haven't had the urge yet. If you do read them, anon, you’ll have to tell me what you think. It’s becoming quite the divisive topic, especially as Netflix fans turn to the books, and—putting aside that everyone’s tastes will always differ—it’s interesting to hear not just whether someone had fallen in love with the books or not, but if they haven’t what about them prevented that. It's very much a case of one person's "That was awful" being another's "Are you kidding me? That's the best part!"

_____________________________________
The next morning…
You woke up and Miles wasn't in bed. You try not to worry but it's hard for you not to because of the spirit that is lingering in the house. You put on one of his sweaters overtop of your nightdress because it is pretty cold this morning. You walk out of the door and spot Miles sitting on the sofa in the living room. He sees you and immediately smiles. 
Tumblr media
Miles "good morning angel!"
"Mmm good morning." You rub the sleep out of your eyes to try and wake yourself up some more. You walk over and sit down next to him and cling into his side.
Miles "Are you still tired? We can go back to sleep for a bit if you want."
"Can we? Flora isn't up yet.."
Miles "yeah, come on let's go back to bed."
"I'm not used to you not being there when I wake up."
Miles "I know, I'm sorry. I just needed to stretch my legs and get some food. I was going to come back to bed but you woke up." You nod and climb into bed. Miles pulls you on top of him and you nuzzle your face into his chest. He squeezes his arms around your torso and kisses your forehead.
Miles "you look better in that sweater than I do babe!"
"Thank you. I love wearing your clothes, they smell like you."
Miles "oh my god you are so adorable."
"Are we going to tell Flora that we are together today?"
Miles "yeah, I don't see why not. She loves you so much and she knows that I love you already so it won't be a shock." He says rubbing circles on your lower back with his thumbs.
"Yeah I agree. I don't think Mrs. Grose will be happy though."
Miles "I really don't care what she thinks. I just care about you and Flora."
"Mmkay I love you." You loosen your grip on his chest and he knows that you are going to fall asleep soon. 
Miles "I love you too angel, go back to sleep."
_____________________________________
When you wake back up an hour later. You are now on your side and Miles is holding you from behind. You smile to yourself because he is being so adorable right now. You are so happy to be his and he is happy to be yours. 
….
Miles "You comin to eat lunch?"
"Yeah I'll be out in a second, I'm going to call my friend Rose real quick." He nods and shuts the door behind him.
Rose "Hello?"
"Hey Rose! It's Y/n."
Rose "oh my God Y/n! I miss you so much, how is everything?"
"It's going great! I'm so sorry I haven't called you in awhile but things have been kinda crazy over here!"
Rose "It's okay, I'm just so glad to hear your voice! So tell me everything!!"
You tell her all about Flora and Miles. She is so happy for you that you have a boyfriend even though she hasn't even met him. You tell her about Mrs. Grose and how you feel like she doesn't like you very much. She told you that she thinks that she is just jealous of your relationship with Flora and Miles. You haven't even thought about that possibility before, which eased your mind a bit. It was so nice to hear from her but you are starving at this point. It is now 12:30 and you are ready for lunch. 
….
Flora "Y/n!! Come sit next to me!!"
"Duhhh!" You grab the lunch that Mrs. Grose had made for you and sit down next to Flora.
Mrs. Grose "You look happy today Y/n."
"Yeah, I just have a lot to be happy about. I just got off the phone with my best friend from home and it felt good to hear from her….it's been a bit."
Flora "Did you tell her about me?"
"Of course I did, lovebug! I told her how we are super close...and how you are like my baby sister and how I loooovvvveeee you so much." You lean into her and make her giggle.
Mrs. Grose "Don't make her laugh while she is eating, she could choke."
"...sorry ma'am." You don't speak the rest of the meal, you just sat there and listened to Mrs. Grose dictate to you all of your duties for the day. She has you running absolutely ragged. 
Miles "is there anything else that she needs to do?"
Mrs. Grose "I beg your pardon?"
Miles "is there anything else that she needs to do for you? I mean you have her doing basically everything a human being could possibly do in one day! How do you think that that's okay?"
Mrs. Grose "She works for me Miles, I-"
Miles "Actually, she works for Flora….she is Flora's nanny!"
"Miles...it's okay."
Miles "no it's not! You are my girlfriend and I don't like the way she talks to you."
Flora "YOU'RE DATING!??"
"Yeah" Flora gets up and starts jumping up and down.
Flora "I'M SO HAPPY!!!"
Mrs. Grose "What big news."
Miles "Please….just treat her with some respect. She doesn't deserve to be treated hatefully. I mean, she is so sweet and kind and does everything for Flora! Please just stop."
Mrs. Grose "Well…. I guess a Welcome to the Family is in order since you two are officially a couple Y/n, so welcome to the family."
Flora "ARE WE SISTERS NOW!?"
You giggle at her response, "You could say that, yes. But Flora...do you know what day it is?"
Flora "noo?"
"It's Saturday!"
Flora "No school?!"
"No school!! Just fun and games, how does that sound?"
Mrs. Grose "You still have chores to do Y/n...but you don't have to do all of them."
"Okay ma'am."
_____________________________________
You played baby dolls with Flora for a half hour before you had to clean up her bedroom. 
"I gotta take a break from playing, lovebug...I'll be back soon okay?"
Flora "okay." She said with a pouting face. She hates when you leave her side but you don't really have a choice. 
You start by making her bed and cleaning up her stuffed animals. They were all over the floor so you gathered them up nicely and placed them on the made bed. Next, you gather up her pajamas that she had laying on the floor and start folding them when you feel a pair of arms wrap around your waist.
Miles "Hey"
"Hey, did you get bored playing with Flora?"
Miles "nope, just came in to check on ya. Do you want some help?"
"Nah I got it. Thank you though. Do you have any ideas on what we can do with Flora today? I'm kind of running out of ideas."
Miles "hmmm...I know that she loves riding her horse so we could start off with that."
"Okay! We haven't done that in a few days, let's do it!"
Miles "Okay, beautiful. I'll let you finish so we can have some fun." You agree and he walks out the door. You start to remember the first day you went riding with Flora and Miles: it was the first time you started catching feelings for Miles. It's crazy how unexpected events made you two come together but you are almost glad that they did. 
….
Miles "hey Flora! Wanna go riding?"
"I'm finished now guys, we can go now if you want."
Flora "Yes!! Can I ride on the back of your horse today Y/n?"
"Absolutely! But you are gonna have to ask your brother first." 
Flora "Can I? Please please please!"
Miles "yes of course! She didn't even need to ask but thank you though."
"You are her brother, I didn't wanna give her permission for something that you don't want." Miles walks over to you, closing the gap between you and him.
Miles "Babe, I'm not Mrs. Grose, you don't need to ask my permission for anything. I trust you with Flora...I know that she means a lot to you."
Flora "I'm right here!"
You laugh and look down at her, "how about you go get your boots on, Miles and I will be down in a minute." She agrees and in a flash she was gone.
"I don't think you kissed me yet today…" he giggles and grabs your left cheek and kisses your lips. He is so gentle, it feels like heaven. He pulls away to catch his breath and leans his forehead to yours.
Miles "God I could kiss you forever."
"Is that a promise?"
Miles "It is definitely a promise." He kisses you one more time before you two walk downstairs to meet Flora by the door. You all keep your riding boots by the door because you all go riding so often. 
Flora "What took you guys so long?!"
Miles "We were doing couple type things…"
Flora "Like what?"
"Kissinggg.."
Flora "Eeeewww!!"
Miles laughs and pulls you into his side, "Get your butt out the door, young lady. Your horse is waiting for ya." 
….
Miles gives Flora a lift on getting her on the back of the horse. You wait for Miles to get on his black stag and then you start riding.
"You comfy back there?"
Flora "yeah!!"
Miles "wanna ride around the acres?"
Flora "Yeah!! Let's go by the pond first."
The ride to the pond was so calm and relaxing. The weather is perfect today: no cloud in sight, the breeze is warm but cooling, and the birds are chirping all around you. Miles leads the way and you feel Flora's head lean against your back. 
Flora "there's our fish Y/n!!"
"Oh yeah, look at her! She looks like she has gotten bigger since we were last here!"
Miles "mine is right next to yours Flora, see?" She nods and we gaze at the coy fish for a moment longer before we head in the other direction. Once we reached the east side of the house, the vibe felt different: there were no birds in sight, the horses started hesitating and the breeze was much colder.
Miles "Y/n..you okay back there?"
"Uh yeah. My horse is just a little spooked for some reason."
Miles "maybe you should get o-" he couldn't finish his sentence before you and Flora were flung off your horse. Flora lands on her hip and you land on your back. Miles immediately dismounts his horse and runs over to you and Flora.
"Check on her first!" You were in a lot of pain but you can worry about yourself later. Flora is much younger and smaller than you are, she could be in worse conditions.
Miles "FLORA!! ARE YOU OKAY? TALK TO ME!"
Flora groans, "Yeah...I'm okay, I just landed on my hip."
Miles "can you walk?" She shakes her head and he gives her a hand up off of the ground.
Flora "I-I'm okay...what happened?"
Miles "I don't know! That horse just got scared for some reason." Flora spots you still laying on the ground, wincing in pain.
Flora "Y/N!!"
Miles "Baby...baby talk to me, where does it hurt?"
"Everywhere."
Miles "can you feel your legs?"
"Yes! It's just my back!"
Miles "okay, Flora...go inside and get some ice ready for Y/n for when I bring her inside." She doesn't even nod, she just runs off. 
"I knew this area felt off."
Miles "I couldn't tell you to get off fast enough."
"It's my fault. I was feeling uneasy, that gave him the gateway.."
Miles "none of this is your fault, let's go put ice on your back, babe." He tries to give you a hand up but your back makes you scream out in pain, you can't walk right now. Miles picks you up bridal style and carries you to the kitchen where Flora has the ice waiting. Mrs. Grose hears all the commotion and comes into the room.
Mrs. Grose "oh my God what happened!"
Miles "her horse flung her off...she landed on her back!"
Mrs. Grose "I'm going to get some pain medication for you, okay?" You can't speak right now so you just agree by shaking your head yes. 
_____________________________________
5 hours later….
You are able to walk a little but not on your own. The fact that you didn't break anything was a miracle! 
Miles "since the meds have kicked in, let's get you to bed." Once you get situated, Miles sits next to you and you can see the worry in his eyes.
"I'm okay Miles."
Miles "no you aren't. You just got flung off of your horse a few hours ago!"
"I know but I'll be okay, I just need to take it easy for a few days. I'm going to need you a little extra…"
Miles "anything you need, I am here for you babe."
"I love you."
Miles "I love you. I'm sorry."
"Can you please stop apologizing! You didn't hurt me, so you don't need to say that you're sorry."
Miles "I just...feel bad, I love you and I hate seeing you in pain."
"Maybe if you give me a kiss, all the pain will go away…" He smiles and leans down to kiss you passionately. He deepens the kiss and you moan in his lips. He stops himself and pulls away.
Miles "we...we can't. Your back."
You sigh, "I know, just wish we could."
Miles "I don't want to hurt you, babe."
You "Hopefully my back heals quickly then."
Miles "it will, beautiful! I'm going to put Flora to bed. I'll be back in a minute." He gave your forehead a kiss and then walked out of his room. You really want him right now but you understand why he doesn't want to. You curse at the ceiling, "Why did this have to fucking happen? Why couldn't I just ask Miles to go back to the west wing? If I did, I wouldn't be in pain right now." Your head starts to pound, you try your best to roll over to your side. It was painful but you are now on your side, facing away from the doorway. Your eyelids get heavy and you drift off to sleep. Miles joins you soon after.
