deleted scene from chapter 2...
[Inspired by a few comments from chapter 2! If you haven't read my unexpected pregnancy omegaverse story yet, check out: you, me, (and the kid) on ao3]
[A few minutes after leaving Rey's apartment:]
Like passing through a supernatural veil, the white noise buzzing (screaming) in Ben’s ears fades the moment he leaves Rey’s apartment building, rolling her couch to the curb.
The sounds of the city start to filter in. It’s the afternoon on a weekday, and the streets are filled with nannies and mothers pushing strollers. Children are laughing, crying, and screaming. A car honks somewhere a few blocks away, followed by an angry shout from a man with a heavy Italian accent.
Outside, the air is clearer and less consuming. Less overwhelming.
Omega’s scent wafts into the atmosphere, dissipating, no longer stuffing his nose.
Fuck.
Ben carefully slides the couch off the dolly and lowers it to the curb. He tried to cover most of the smell with plastic wrap, but the darker stain on the left side of the couch is more than a little obvious.
Fuck, fuck, fucking shit.
Ben stands there on the curb, hands resting on his hips as he chews his lip anxiously. With a twist of his torso, he turns back around and looks at Omega’s apartment building, eyes scaling up to the third floor where her apartment must be. It’s only one of two units on the floor.
He looks back at the couch. His brain is still not all there, still trying to reconnect the neurons that got disconnected as he fucked Rey within an inch of his sanity.
The urge to ring her doorbell again and go upstairs and show her just how much he wants to do that again. Maybe properly this time. He wants to show her that he can take care of her. He can take his time and give her whatever she needs—
“Fuck,” Ben swears, shaking his head and trying to clear it.
No, he doesn’t want to come on too strong. He already did that, and she hated him for it.
Sigh, he should just leave.
His feet don’t budge from where he’s standing on the sidewalk.
No, no, no, he’s overthinking this. Omega said he could call her—or maybe text. A text might be safer, friendlier.
He knows Rey’s got a lot on her mind after just ending such a long relationship. He knows he has to be patient and not overwhelm her. He’s already fucked up more than once already.
He doesn’t want to ruin his third chance.
With a sigh and another slew of muttered curses that earns him a glare from a nanny walking past while pushing a stroller, Ben walks away from Rey’s apartment before he realizes he’s going in the wrong direction.
Ben stuffs his hands into his bomber jacket pockets, turns around, and stalks past Rey’s apartment again, glancing at the couch, then her apartment entrance, and finally, her apartment window one more time.
“Get a grip, Solo,” he growls as he stomps down the street.
Get a grip.

I am so close to finishing ch 8 of Look at Me! Wish I could finish it tonight but I’ve gotta get to bed. For now, have an angsty little teaser…
“Lady Niima, I was hoping to find you.”
Rey kept her gaze trained ahead and continued walking past Kylo. “Perhaps I do not wish to be found at the moment.”
He followed though, clearly undeterred. “I need to speak with you.”
“Speak, then.”
“It is about Lady Netal. I did not send for her.”
“I am already aware of that.”
That gave him pause. “How?”
“It does not matter.”
Kylo clutched her arm, spinning her to a stop. “It matters to me that you know.”
Rey swallowed thickly, staring up at him. “Was that all, my Lord?”
“No, that is not all.” He leaned in just a touch, dropping his voice. “I’ve missed you.”
Her brow knit together in conflict. “Forgive me, but I find that any trust I had in you has gone.”
“What has changed?”
“Nothing has changed.” She couldn’t hide the sadness in her voice. “I fear you are exactly who you have always been.”
Rey moved to turn away from him but he held her fast, his tone one of confusion and desperation.
“And who am I?!”

Tattoo You - A Haladriel Not-So-Meet-Cute (Teaser Snippet)
I’m hopefully going to have this all ready for Day 5 of the #tropvalentines2023 event but in the meantime, here’s a teaser of my Haladriel tattooist/florist mod!AU (which I didn’t even know was a thing but apparently is - a shout out to my Reylo fic writing friend for suggesting that should be the trope here) not-so-meet-cute.
“Just look at you,” Halbrand smoothly lowered himself into one of the conveniently placed armchairs in the reception area, only breaking eye contact when pulling his shirt off over his head meant losing sight of her icy glare, reclining further when he was done stripping down. “You’re flawless. Only an idiot would want an artist touching them who’s too afraid or too incompetent to promote their work.”
“I’ll have you know I’m-“
“Yes?” he hummed as she seemed unable to stop herself storming a little further into his personal space, close enough now for him to know her hair smelled like coconut and mango, close enough now for him to feel the heat of her body like she could definitely feel his, close enough now for him to reach out and run his hand up her thigh to pull her closer still. If she’d shown any kind of interest he might have done so without another thought, but it was almost disappointing to receive nothing more than an unimpressed eye roll after being commanded to undress.

Ben Solo is the recently assigned editor for Rey Johnson’s book about star-crossed lovers in space when the world is turned upside down and stay home orders are issued. Ben and Rey begin working together over Zoom and their relationship grows.
Or, an and they were zoomates fic.
Based on this post.
He was definitely attractive. Which was not what she needed to be thinking about at the moment.
“Good morning, Mr. Solo,” Rey said, smiling politely as she held her hand up in a tiny, awkward wave.
“I would say Mr. Solo is my father,” he responded, shaking his head slightly. “But he also hates being called that.”
“Right, so, Benjamin then?”
“No, no, no, no,” Ben grimaced, as if the word personally offended him. “Ben. Just Ben.”
“Okay, just Ben,” Rey laughed softly. “It’s nice to meet you.”
“It’s nice to meet you too, Ms. John-”
“Rey,” she interrupted him with a grin.
“Well, Rey, tell me about your book.”

A teaser from @spottytonguedog‘s fic, How Far the Distance:
Rey’s fiddling with the controls the first time she hears his voice. It’s unexpected. She hasn’t heard anyone speaking her language in what feels like decades. Here they all speak some form of Basic that’s been cobbled together from a variety of alien languages, including ones from her home planet of Earth. But his voice comes through loud and clear as she’s turning the knobs.
“Fuck!”
She giggles. She can’t help it. She hits another button, leans toward the seldom-used microphone attached to the communication equipment. “Hello?”
“Fuck,” the voice says again. “How do you turn this thing off?” There’s some indistinct chatter from somewhere further away than the voice, and then the line goes dead.
She crosses her arms over her chest and leans back. She liked his voice, curse words and all. There’s something about it: deep and dark, like the chocolate she misses from back home. But mostly she misses the cadence of Earth speakers. There are others here, who speak a language close to her people’s, but it’s not the same. Never the same.
Not that she knows who her people are. She was dumped here so long ago, abandoned to a desert planet with an atmosphere she can’t even breathe. She wonders, more often than not, what it would be like to be outside, to be able to breathe the air without some sort of apparatus, to not be confined to giant domes that only allow a tease of the outside without actually letting you be a part of it.
She wonders where he is.
Who he is?
She turns the knobs several more times, but there’s nothing more than static. With a sigh, she returns to her work on the communications array. Maybe she’ll hear him again…sometime…
The complete work will be released on February 14 as part this year’s Reylo Charity Anthology: Across the Stars. Donate today to receive your copy!

Between a fic exchange I’m working on a prompt for and a TROS fix-it still halfway through completion, I’m plodding away at Conversations when the inspiration hits. Here’s a teaser for chapter 12, which I’m about halfway through writing.
Kylo leans in closer, gaze unwavering; closing the gap between them until his soft breath ghosts her cheek as he slowly exhales. From the edge of her peripheral, Rey sees him fidget. Fingers reaching out as if to take her own before pulling away again. She holds her own hands tightly balled into fists. This is not the kind of conversation to evoke tenderness.
“Rey, I’ve known where you are from the moment you fled Crait. I knew when you were on Kashyyyk. I knew when you were on Ahch-To. I know exactly where your precious Resistance are hiding - right this moment.”
“You’re bluffing.” Rey holds her voice steady, wishing he would just stop. Stop talking.
“Ajan Kloss,” he continues, relentless.
She flinches then, pulling herself out of his tractor beam. “You’ve been inside my head.” Anger makes her voice tremble; which makes her angrier still. Distantly she wonders how much of it she can hold within herself, before her seams split.
“No. I guessed some time ago.” There’s a twitch to the corners of his lips. A smile, if it can be believed. “Your reaction just confirmed my suspicion - you really should stop doing that.”
“That’s impossible. Out of all the potential planets in the galaxy. How could you possibly guess?” Rey’s mind races in a sudden surge of panic. Did he pluck this information from her while she was sleeping? Has he already informed the First Order? Is their current predicament all a ruse so he can stall for time as his Star Destroyer enters the stratosphere of Ajan Kloss and prepares to launch...
“Rey,” he catches her thoughts then. Trapping them as surely as he folds her tightly clenched fists within one hand, and tilts her face towards him with the other. His expression is soft, his voice softer still, “Ajan Kloss is an Alderaan stronghold that was passed to my mother before I was born. I started my Jedi training there, in fact… So it wasn’t actually a difficult conclusion to draw.”
She studies his face, looking for any tell of a lie. But all she can read in the draw of his brows is worry. As if it means something to him that she believes. “Alright...”
He nods, his face relaxing into the hint of relief. “I’ve kept the information to myself. And every single time Hux has come close to sniffing you out - and he has - I’ve sent him off the trail. But this… This is why the First Order must know I’m alive. For now.”
She nods. The words are there to tell him she believes him, but they’re stuck in her throat. It seems no matter what she says or does - no matter what side he falls to - she’s going to lose something she loves, either way.

Teaser! Snow Sparkles Like Stars
Kylo cleared his throat a few times before he was sure he could speak. “Umm, thanks for saving me,” he said, his voice scratchy. He shuffled his feet nervously, suddenly feeling very awkward in the small laundry room.
Her pretty pink lips stretched into a broad amused smile. “You’re just lucky my dogs noticed. You’d still be out there if they didn’t,” she replied with a laugh. Kylo cocked his head in surprise. She spoke with an English accent. Kylo understood now why people swooned over it. He watched her as she began to leave the room, appreciating the sway of her hips even under the sweater when she turned around sharply. Kylo blushed having been caught staring at her ass.
She raised a brow. “You can come in you know. My dogs don’t bite,” she said teasingly.
Yeah, but I do. Whoa, down boy! “Umm, thanks. Again. I promise I’m not an axe murderer or anything. Name’s Kylo Ren,” he said lightly as he divested himself of his heavy coat, shoes, and gloves.
His comment was greeted with a peal of bright laughter. “Rey Johnson, also not an axe murderer. And you’d be dead on the floor right now if you were.”
Umm, what? Yeah, the black dog was big, but not that big. And it was blind in one eye. Kylo laughed lightly in bemusement at the young woman’s joke, until he rounded the corner into the kitchen and realized she probably wasn’t joking. Fifteen eyes were staring at him, and he felt every single one.

The Red Beam of Fate teaser
Now he did not know who he was: hunched over the control panel, he only knew of a persistent tug inside his mind pulling him forward, mapping the way.
Thirteen years old and she has already killed, he thought desperately.
“I will keep you safe, Rey. I promise.”
“Kid, I don’t know what Luke’s teaching you in that fancy schmancy school of his but I’m damn well not going to buy back a ship that was stolen from me in the first place!”
Something… righted itself inside him, even as he tumbled gracelessly to the ground.
“Don’t be scared.”

Wishing Well Ch. 4 Teaser:
She blinks, and the memory is gone.
Across from her, Kylo is giving her a murderous look.
“Don’t,” he grits, “Ever do that again. Or so help me, I will slit my own throat and let you suffer the madness.” He’s looking at her with those same betrayed eyes, and Rey...
Rey is shocked at how desperate she is to have him not hate her.

50 and 35!
35 - favorite review
hmmmmmmm this so hard! lol. minervra on ao3 has left me some gems on jeté (darklina/zoyalina), the thief & the sharpshooter (kazper), and star wars episode ix: rise of the fallen (reylo/stormpilot). their comments are always so long and detailed and make me feel like someone actually CARES about what i write!!! which is super awesome<3 but there are a few other ones that have really warmed by heart as well: @albusgellertalways and @thetimes-havechanged complimented sunset in godric’s hollow (grindeldore) which meant so much to me, i love you guys<3
50 - can we get a teaser for an upcoming chapter?
hmmm well i don’t have anything in the works for tlc/renegades at the moment except for until i met you (kaider) but i haven’t written anything for the next chapter yet so here is a snippet of a kanej from the grishaverse fic that i will be posting soon:
His soul is ice, and hers is of fire, and they can see all the way through each other right in that moment. And then, before either of them can realize what is happening, he’s yanking his hand away, the dull, grey rag in his grip dripping on the bathroom tiles as he sucks in a breath. Kaz can barely breathe, and yet he wants to touch Inej again and again and again. He never wants to let her go.
But across from her, he can see Inej’s lips thinning and her eyes darkening. He sees her whole body tense its muscles and knows that she must have felt everything inside of him just as he felt everything inside of her, and for the first time, Kaz feels ashamed. He’s never allowed himself to feel this way before, but as he raises his eyes to meet hers, he allows some of his barriers to loosen and slip away, relishing the weight it takes off of his heart.
To Inej, this feels like rolling thunder, but it’s the good kind—the kind of thunder that precedes a beautiful summer storm, the kind Summoned by an Etherealki in stories that come from across the sea. To Inej, Kaz’s conscious opening to her is like a million flowers of all varieties; a newly invented birdsong; that gritty sand covering his soul swept away by a gust of strong wind. She can see him clearly now, or at least, she can see the top layer of his emotions, more than she’s ever seen before, save their one accidental brush.
And she watches as Kaz sucks in a breath and steps back toward her, deliberately placing a hand on her face. His eyes widen as he does it, for her skin there is soft and warm and not at all how he expected. He supposes that he had assumed the feel of her would have been naught but shadow and secrets, and his lips curl upward when he feels that she is flesh and bone.
thanks for the ask aj!! (also if you haven’t read any of the grisha books pleasseee do!)
ask me about my fanfic!

Rey found that she was quick to take the hand he extended, once again drawn in by what flickered in his eyes, like a flame that urged her to come closer and warm herself.

Waffle House not just saying #reylo but recommending specific fanfics
When some very dedicated reylos went to the film archive and transcribed the TLJ shooting script
The year is 1994, the iron curtain has fallen-
When we all watched football to see the teaser
That time Adam's suit may have been purple?
The sheer organizational power of several meetups, panels, screenings and podcastsi
Falling into a pit never to be seen again

A teaser from @calledalaska’s fic, Faded to Blue:
The experience so far has been a little surprising, but Ben feels silly when he thinks about what he’d expected. Maybe a busy spaceport, populated by the rushing souls of every being that had ever rejoined the Force?
He hasn’t seen anyone else since he’s been here, in the waiting room or anywhere else. At first, he thinks it’s a little strange, but then rationalizes--of course he’s alone here; the Force has infinite dimensions, doesn’t it? Maybe he’s been given his own.
The complete work will be released on February 14 as part this year’s Reylo Charity Anthology: Across the Stars. Donate by February 13 to receive your copy!

Spoiler free impressions of Rise of Skywalker
For those that don’t know, The Last Jedi did not give me warm fuzzy feelings and it bothered me that I didn’t like it. I didn’t really enjoy what I was seeing as I watched. I laughed at a lot of stuff that wasn’t supposed to be funny. (Fan fic Reylo Force bonds, your typical action feature slo-mo action scenes, etc.) I remember not liking how most of the characters interacted with each other they were snarky and not nice. I was no longer invested in anyone’s lives and walked out with no burning desire to see the next movie. I went into this film seeing maybe a teaser trailer, some bits and pieces of tv spots, and click bait sponsored article headlines on Facebook.
I’m not sure this movie was much better than TLJ. I liked the character interactions better. There wasn’t so much out of place humor. I felt like the movie spent much of its time overturning what the last movie did. Like extremely explicitly in some cases (there’s a direct call out on the lightsaber chucking scene). The first third moved so fast. It was just a clip show to get us caught up so that the last one and this one might connect. And they had to tie up the loose ends from the TFA that TLJ just ignored. And so we got one line to explain things. It was just so obvious what they were doing. In this case they were playing it way safe again and it doesn’t work. Just like being edgy and trying to be too different for the sake of being different doesn’t work. I don’t feel as bitter this time around, but I think it might just be that I’m so relieved that this is finally over. No more waiting around to see how bad it can get. I can just forget it all happened.
Oh, and the audience laughed at a part that probably wasn’t supposed to be funny. I think that was my favorite part of seeing this because the reaction was great.
Random non spoiler-y complaint. They reuse SO MUCH MUSIC FROM PREVIOUS MOVIES. I don’t know why it takes me out so much when they do that. Maybe because the music is so distinctive and for specific scenes that it just bugs me. Even the end titles were the same as previous movies. I know they’ve done it before, but it was used sparingly. I still didn’t particularly like it then, either.
I’m just realizing I don’t feel that empty ‘it’s over’ feeling in my chest as heavily as I normally do when something I enjoy ends. I think I might feel it a little now that I’m thinking about it. Maybe it’s because I know this wild ride with Disney still is not over. I am just not sure it’s a ride I care spend a lot of time on anymore. :(

Fic Update
Well, it’s been a crazy few weeks. RL kind of smacked me upside the head, and I had to drop out of the T’hy’la big bang. Sigh. I just didn’t think that I could commit with that and work- and I would rather quit now than before any artist was paired with me. I’m not happy about it, but fortunately the mods were super understanding. It doesn’t help that I write like a goddamn constipated snail (no joke- Sometimes slower...!) so I have to have a ton of time to do all the things!
So below are where I’m at in my writing WIPS, and the idea I had for a Crossover with the novel The Stand. Under the cut to save your dashboards. 😅
Shook Me Cold (Sterek mashup with the game The Long Dark) I’m having way too much fun. Derek and Stiles are finally actually talking, but there’s Plot Stuff getting ready to happen and these boys can be dumb.... I’m not quite at the halfway point, but it was a lot of fun to jump back into writing Sterek. I missed these two assholes.
Balanced (Reylo) I wanted to write a fix it for the end of TROS. Also, to play whackamole with some of the plot holes... but the beginning is turning out a lot darker than I anticipated. I did the Ben chapter (The prologue essentially) and now I’m doing Rey from Exogol to ... er the planet the Resistance is on (I’m blanking on the name rn) and she’s... not okay. She will be okay. And you know I can’t not write a happy ending (except that one time!) but man oh man, it’s fun to play in Rey’s head. She may or may not cuddle with a certain Good Boy Sweater, and it makes me 😌 I should have a chapter cleaned up and posted soonish.
Here’s the good stuff- and a bit of a teaser. If you’ve ever had a conversation with me, you know that I love the novel The Stand, by Stephen King. I am not exaggerating when I say that I use it in my job, parts show up as Easter eggs in my fics, and and I reread it every year or so. I’ve wanted to do a cross-over with The Walking Dead for awhile, but I also had an idea for Teen Wolf. I have been plotting out and deleting ideas for at least four years with this thing. @jlm121 has heard me go crazy and delete it over and over. Then it hit me- why not both? Why can’t I put both ideas in there? A few days ago, @marooncamaro and @twdobsessive poked at me until I actually planned it out. So yeah. Will I write it? Idk. Probably. Will I post it? again, idk. I feel so nervous about writing in that ‘verse that I’m terrified I’ll fuck it up. But damn I can’t wait to write it. I have to finish one of my current WIPs (The star trek fic I didn’t even mention here because I feel horribly guilty whenever I think about it lol) before I start something new and epic length.
