Hello, Lina!! I wish you luck and hope you can have lots of fun with your new blog!! How about a request to help you kick off? 👀 Headcanons for t2!Mikoto and Orekoto with a guard gn!reader that tries to keep Mikoto from getting too stressed when interrogating him? Basically, they don't want to push him too hard. After the end of trial 1, I was thinking about how I would have preferred Mikoto and Orekoto over Kotoko as allies if I was a guard, haha.
▷ listening to:
"i won't hurt you, i promise" (gn!reader)
Tumblr media
⇆ㅤ ㅤ◁ㅤ ❚❚ ㅤ▷ ㅤㅤ↻ ılıılıılıılıılıılıㅤㅤ
♪ note: thank you sm aurora! i hope you like this one! (again. probably came out too cute ahshajaj)
♪ summary: okay, maybe voting a guy with undiagnosed did (and an alter who is extremely protective of him) guilty wasn't a good idea. wishing to make amends and get to know these two better, you try to help these two feel at least a bit safer in this hellhole known as milgram prison.
♪ warnings: mostly none, except there's a description of john trying to make the reader believe that he's the "evil" alter in an attempt to protect mikoto. the reader doesn't believe him though and it's mostly lighthearted. also the reader is kinda supposed to be a "replacement" of es, since they're the reason why mikoto's been voted guilty and there's a mention of.. well, what happened in mikoto's first vd.
mikoto kayano.
♪ "y/n, d-don't get me wrong, i don't mind the attention, but seriously, i'm fine! my head hurts a little bit, but other than that-"
oh, but you know well that this man is not fine at all. you're glad to see that mikoto is doing better after.. well, everything that happened with kotoko and all, but you refuse to leave him alone even for a minute. yes, you're worried about him. why wouldn't you be? voting him guilty was your decision and you're not sure it was the correct one (well, you certainly were shocked after watching his video, haha..) and you're ready to take responsibility for it. you just hope kotoko really won't try to attack him (or anyone, really) again..
♪ you make sure to do everything in your power to help mikoto when he's feeling stressed or anxious and you know that this guy really doesn't like to show how he really feels. but you recognize the signs pretty easily, so no matter how hard he tries, you're already there, asking if he's okay. yes, he's still a prisoner, but that doesn't mean you're just gonna interrogate him until he loses consciousness because of how tired he is. so you try your best to check up on him as often as you possibly can. and no, you have no idea why the other prisoners are saying you have your favorites. 
♪ when you're interrogating him, you tell him that it's okay if he doesn't remember something and he doesn't have to force himself to remember it, especially if it's something that can be traumatic for him. of course, you still try to learn at least some new information, that's your job after all, but you try not to push him too hard. you don't mind if john appears again, but you also want to make sure mikoto himself feels safe. whenever he gets distracted, you gently get him back on track and remind him why he's here and if you notice that he's starting to get visibly anxious, you ask if he needs anything and change the topic and try to go back to the question you had once he calms down.
♪ yes, you feel bad about voting him guilty. maybe it really wasn't the right choice. and when mikoto gives you that lost and confused look, asking why you voted him guilty and feeling like he did something wrong.. yeah, you don't feel so good about it. he looks like a sad puppy when he does it and you refuse to look him in the eyes when it happens. so, uh.. you just try to make it up to him by still letting him do things that make him at least a little bit happy. he can sit in his cell and draw stuff if he wants. you can even take a look if he's okay with that. you can also try to help him start hanging out with the other prisoners again-
"h-hey, y/n.. do you know why everyone's kind of.. i don't wanna sound like i'm blaming them or anything, but is it just me or they're avoiding me for some reason?"
.. ah, about that.
john kayano.
♪ o-okay, now you have to try to get along with this guy. and to your surprise, it wasn't.. that hard? he still doesn't fully trust you, that's for sure. but even though your first meeting didn't go that well (him beating you up and almost killing you in the process, romantic, isn't it?), when you've finally managed to make john trust you and believe that you're not dangerous and you're not planning to hurt mikoto (it took.. a lot of time), he started to act a little bit calmer around you. he's still mad at you, for obvious reasons. he has no idea what you saw in that video, but you still voted mikoto guilty. and he won't forgive you so easily.
♪ whenever you try to learn more about mikoto (or john's?..) crime, john tries really hard to make it seem like he's the one at fault. he's the one to blame, not mikoto. just forgive mikoto already, is that so hard? you really think that guy is capable of murdering someone? and you really don't want to suspect these two, but again, that's your job. and you know well that all prisoners are murderers at least in some way. so when john says that he murdered someone to help mikoto relieve his stress.. it just.. doesn't make any sense. you don't say it out loud though and just say that you're not going to try and figure out which one is innocent and which one is guilty. you're going to judge both of them and you will try your best to be fair, but you're not going to point a finger at one of them and go "you're the bad guy here". not at least before you really do get a confirmation that one of them is the murderer.
♪ john tries to play it cool, doing the whole "tch.. do what you want" thing, but on the inside?? he's LOSING IT. hey. hey. he's the murderer. he's the bad one. he's the evil one. just leave mikoto alone already. however, that's not the only reason why he's kinda going insane. he's just.. not used to being treated like this. what do you mean you see him and mikoto as two different people and treat them as such. why are you so nice to both of them. he's not surprised that mikoto feels safe around you, this guy is way too naive (yes, he means it in an affectionate way), but why does he also feel kind of.. whatever. just remember to forgive mikoto and everything will be fine.
♪ when you hear the infamous "weird noises coming from mikoto's cell", you know well that it's john's doing, so you go pay him a visit. you try to talk to him about whatever that's bothering him, and when he asks just why are you "acting like this" (he's talking about being nice.), you simply say that it's also a part of your job. yes, you're supposed to judge the prisoners, but you don't want anything to happen to them before all three trials are over. he looks at you for a moment, processing your words and says that it sounds like a lie, though you can't hear any anger in his voice, he actually sounds a little confused. you sigh and try to fix his hair that's been messy since the second trial started.
"well, you're not exactly being honest with me either."

Thoughts on Wish
I've never walked out of a Disney movie with such a lukewarm response before.
It's not Bad, but it also didn't feel like it had a lot of love put into it, either.
That being said, this is still an Asha stan account.
Asha is, without a doubt, the strongest point of the movie. Which is good, bc she's the main character. Right at the beginning it's established that her generosity is the root of her character, and her "adorkable" moments are next to none aside from the trailers. She very clearly does not want to be misunderstood or mistaken for selfish. She is, in all measures, Magnifico's foil. That being said, I don't like the ending, giving her the Fairy Godmother's wand and implying that's who she becomes. Not only bc the Fairy Godmother has almost always been portrayed as white, but also bc this movie was promised as the origin story of the wishing star, not the Fairy Godmother. Especially with the whole "made of stardust" thing, it would have been stronger if it was Asha joining Star and the other stars.
The music is really hit-or-miss. Either it's great or it does nothing. "This Wish" (and its reprise) and "This is the Thanks I Get?!" do great, "Knowing What I Know Now" starts off slow and gets strong, and the others just... fall flat. I'm just going to say it, I don't think "I'm a Star" needed to be explained in a song (which I couldn't even follow for a good portion of the performance.) "At All Costs" makes sense in the plot but without context can be wildly misconstrued.
King Magnifico is a fantastic Disney Villain because yes, he starts out with noble intentions, and even the audience might be tricked, but the moment his strategies and power are merely questioned he turns into a Problem, which is the best kind of Disney Villain I think. The plot is entirely his fault in the best way. Also I think he takes the cake for "Disney Villain who physically does the most damage to the protagonist" given how he throws Asha around and slams her to the ground with magic.
I love Queen Amaya and she deserved better than Magnifico.
Beyond Dahlia, I'm very ambivalent about Asha's friends. Gabo was more "rude for comedic effect" than actually Grumpy, and Dahlia constantly has the only brain cell. Dario wasn't dopey, he was just a stoner. And... Simon deserved better. They made his "sleepy" description be a result of having already given his wish over to Magnifico and therefore losing a part of himself, which is a nice touch that makes sense, but then he spends the rest of the movie being controlled to fight them (a plot point that almost honestly felt like an afterthought to the plot more than anything.) And we get... half a minute of resolving that. After he's been terrorized by bunnies I suppose.
I expected... a lot more Disney references. Like we saw Aurora's dress in Sonja's wish, and of course we find out that a recurring minor character who just came to Rosas turns out to be a Wendy reference when she goes off with Peter-reference to build a flying machine, but these were the only two references I really caught. For a story that's been "a hundred years in the making" there was really, really little actual joy to be found in it.
The ending should have been something like "Star invites Asha to come reside among Stars like her, but Asha demurs to remain in Rosas as heir to Queen Amaya, and once Rosas is safe in the hands of Asha's chosen heir, then she ascends to join the stars."
For a Disney movie, it's sweet and cute and has a wonderful message. For it to be the 100th anniversary movie, "a story a hundred years in the making," it kind of left me looking at it like "this is it????"

Love Just Happens
Part 8 - A Piece of Her
Tumblr media
Description: Bill Skarsgård, a 40 years old separated father of three tries to live as simple as he can but then he meet Aurora Lou and life becomes even more complicated.
Characters: The future's Bill Skarsgård and others close to him. The rest is my own characters.
Setting: This story is set in the future but because it's hard to say how the world is then (and it isn't that important for the story) the future is similar to our time now, even with fashion and so on.
Warnings: 18+, age difference, smut, alcohol, ageism, jealousy, posessiveness, bullying, sexism, kinks and fetishes, talk about pregnancy.
Notes: As usual have @b-afterhours helped me with the language 💗
The end of May
She looked at their faces, both so happy with smooth skin. Dressed up in the finest clothes. They stood on a red carpet together, he was much taller than her, even if she wore the highest black strappy heels with her spaghetti strapped dress. The dress was made of a thin aqua blue material with swarovski crystals that floated over her body like liquid. Her hair was still as platinum blonde as the first time she saw her. She looked like the embodiment of a gorgeous celebrity and then it was him. He, in all his 6 '4 glory in a dark blue silky suit with a black button up under. His hair, perfectly styled and his face smoothly shaved. He looked more stylish and richer than she had ever seen him. He looked more handsome and glowing with a big smile on his lips while she looked up at him like a giggling school girl. It was insane to see. Everyone in her circle said the same; that they didn't fit together. That he looked silly with such a young girl. Everyone called her girl, like she was fifteen and had a crush on her teacher, unfortunately that wasn't the case.
Bill's ex looked at another picture of them, out and about in L.A. Bill was dressed in dark jeans and a bomber jacket while Aurora tripped around in a short purple dress with yellow butterflies and platform sneakers. Was she trying to look like she could be his daughter? The black and white picture of them laughing lovesick with their heads close together had gotten more than 12 million likes on Aurora's Instagram. For his ex it was hard to understand how everyone outside of her circle just seemed to see them as cute together and couldn't see it as problematic. She wondered if he was with Aurora to get more attention, one more factor of his mid life crisis. She scrolled Aurora's Instagram, it was full of glossy magazine quality pictures mixed with homey pictures of her dogs, plants and food, obviously made by Bill.
"Are you looking at that again?" Asked her boyfriend while he crawled down in bed. He knew she was a bit obsessed with looking at her ex's new partner but didn't get jealous. He could see that the situation was extremely special and on top of that her daughters loved the new girlfriend. Her oldest daughter could even video call her to get advice about friends and style. She had stopped hanging out with the girls that were bad for her thanks to Aurora while she hadn't listened to her parents.
"It's just… I can't really understand the hype around her. Are these kinds of girls, "women", who should be role models for the next generation? I just wonder how my daughters will be affected by this?"
She showed him a picture of Aurora in a bikini that looked like it was made of pink plastic laying on a plastic lounge chair in the same color with her hair perfectly straight and shiny. It was obvious the whole picture was made to look plastic because the caption was "recycled plastic". Henrik smirked. It was hard to look at the picture without smiling, at least if you were a straight man.
"She does think about the environment," he joked and scratched his salt and pepper beard. His girlfriend rolled her eyes. His reaction wasn't the one she wanted and just made her more annoyed. All men became brain dead as soon as a young gorgeous girl came into the room. Even worse if she took off her clothes.
×××
Timmy Laurent had always seen himself as a catch. He was talented, rich, handsome and funny. He was sexy and intelligent. Sometimes a bit too cocky but it was mostly charming. His ex, Aurora Lou and him had been a couple since the both of them were 18. She was still shy and uncomfortable in the spotlight, while he was born for the spotlight and dragged her into it so she would get used to it. He thought it was thanks to him that she had gotten her fame, without him she would have never had the big name she had today. Why she became more loved and famous than him was a mystery for him and he had a theory that she had slept with some influential people behind his back. All girls were sluts if they needed to be.
He looked at the picture of Aurora and her new love. Actor Bill Skarsgård, 40. He was tall as hell and looked like he stood with one foot in the grave. He could see that the guy was handsome but he looked like the kind of guy that would be committed to some dry European actress, not someone as colorful and bubblegum sweet as Aurora. He sat on the couch in his New York apartment and googled pictures of Aurora together with her new boyfriend. Maybe there was some sort of charm in their different looks. He was so tall, brooding and mostly dressed in black while she was so short with her long blonde hair, cute outfits and friendly smile but Timmy would rather think about the negatives. That Bill was obviously there to use Aurora. He wanted her fame, her money and to fuck a girl that wasn't stretched out by other old dirty men. Aurora had always been naive, stupid even, so she had probably been easy. The actor had probably pulled the card about him being better and more mature than other guys she's been with and she believed it because he was older and because of that believed he knew better. No, Bill was not the guy for Aurora. There was just one guy for her, everyone knew that. He closed the window with the pictures and opened his mail instead. Maybe he needed to help Aurora and Bill to realize they were not a good match.
×××
She trekked around on her high pink heels in the roomy apartment, dragged her long nails over the black couch and looked out over South Stockholm with her brown eyes, framed with long lashes.
"It's nice…" she said shyly and adjusted her white bag on her arm.
He was occupied watching her legs, adorned with white thigh high socks under the short pink skirt.
"Where did you say your wife was?" She asked carefully, fixing the white socks.
"Business trip for three weeks." He said with a heavy Swedish accent, licked his lips and leaned against the door frame with his hands in his front pockets.
"Hopefully I’ll find something of my own by then…" she leaned down to look at a book about film photography on the coffee table and the skirt was so short he could see everything and that she had skipped panties that day. He could immediately feel himself grow in his pants. He cleared his voice and she stood up and watched him with an innocent face. She was good at that, looking like the world was completely new for her.
"Your dad said that you’re going to study at the university…"
"Yeah Scandinavian history." She sat down on the couch and took off her platform heels. He sat down close to her, a bit too close and spread his legs so she couldn't miss that he was hard under his black suit pants.
"How old are you?" He asked while dragging a hand down her back. She played with the edge of her skirt and seemed to be oblivious that he could see her bare pussy. She giggled shyly and looked at the handsome man next to her. He smiled cockily and looked under her skirt again.
"You say it first!" She said teasingly.
"48." He scratched the stubble on his jaw and gave her a confident look. Such a look only a man at a mature age can give. She knew that if he put on some years to his age she should pull off some years of hers.
"I'm 19."
He laid his head to the side with a smile.
"So that's why your parents said that I should take care of you. Come here, sit in my lap." He patted his thick thighs and then took her hand to help her straddle his lap with her soles flat against the couch.
"That's better, right?" He asked with a smile and dragged his hands over her legs. She was smooth as silk, he liked that but had a thing for her little bit unshaved. It felt so intimate, something few got to see but because of the premiere in a couple of days she had waxed every part of herself.
"Yeah. Your thighs are comfy." She bounced in his lap and he could feel action in his pants again.
"But baby girl… Now while I'm going to take care of you I must say something." She looked at his serious face with big eyes and played with one of the buttons on his white button up.
"You can't walk around without panties. Of course you can do that here at home, with me. But not on the streets.”
She nodded a little.
"But of course you can show your little pussy to me? Maybe even now?"
She giggled and lifted her skirt shamelessly. He sighed aroused and played with the edge of her socks.
"Has someone ever taken care of your pussy?" He said it filthy and his eyes became heavy. "I think your parents would love it if I took care of your pussy too." Carefully he dragged a finger over her slit and made her squirm in his lap. He spread her pussy lips with two fingers and found her clit with his other hand. It made her moan and spread her legs as much as she could.
"Yeah… Yeah please take care of my pussy…"
×××
Aurora straddled over Bill's hips in his bed in Stockholm. Dressed in a commercial t-shirt from his local gym and panties. It was almost surreal seeing her in his environment. Between his cheap H&M sheets he had bought when he moved in. In his minimalistic apartment in South Stockholm, the area he had lived in as a baby, learned to ride a bike and got his first kiss. And now she was there. That glorious creature that made him smile in a way he never had. That made him question things he had always believed.
He closed his eyes again with a sigh and continued to smile just as brightly.
"And don't just say something now, feel!" She said hitting his chest playfully then she started to draw with a long nail on his chest. It tickled and his first reaction was to push away her hand but knew he was a part of the game now.
"An egg?" He guessed.
"No." She drew again.
"Pancake?"
"Now you're just saying shit again!"
"I’m not! Draw it again!"
She drew again while Bill played with her panties.
"A dick?" He smirked and laughed when she hit his chest again.
"Do you think I want dick for breakfast?" She said with fake annoyance.
"You always want dick for breakfast," he said and looked at her with wiggling eyebrows.
"You are gross!" She pretended to pout with crossed arms.
"Okay, okay, do it again."
She leaned down and drew on his chest again. He really tried to feel.
"No, I don't know babe. It just feels like you’re drawing poo!"
She laughed and sat up again.
"It's a cinnamon roll," she said sweetly and dragged her fingertips down his bare stomach.
"But that's not breakfast. Of course I couldn't guess that!"
"If you actually had tried to feel you have been able to!"
He shook his head with a smile.
"So make that for me," she said and laid her chin on his chest and pouted. He looked down at her with furrowed brows.
"What?"
"Cinnamon rolls!"
"You mean I should bake? Now?"
"No, you can go out and buy it." She tried to look as sweet as possible and Bill stretched his arm with a loud groan.
"No… I'm too tired!" He laid down his arms again and closed his eyes but opened them again when Aurora moved from the bed without complaining. She pulled on his sweatpants, many sizes too big and pulled her hair up in a high ponytail.
"What are you doing?" He said confused and put a hand down in his black boxers to fix his member.
"If you won't go I’ll just do it myself." She twisted the t-shirt and pulled the hem into a knot so it became tighter and cropped. Bill looked at her petite stature, the visible nipples and her bare waist.
"Alone?"
Swedes may be shy people but someone as known as Aurora would make people more daring, especially the weird kind of people. With her look she didn't even need to be famous to have every dirty guy in South Stockholm tail after her.
"You can go with me if you want." She shrugged her shoulders and pulled the sweatpants down a bit more so more of her waist but also her pantyline became visible. Bill sat up and continued to look her up and down. He had never been the controlling kind of guy, not even the worried type but everything about her made him always feel a need to protect her.
"Ehh… You can stay here otherwise? I’ll go then?" He stood up and searched for something to wear. Since Aurora was wearing the clothes he had on the night before.
"I must go out sometime?” She said with a smirk and pulled off the sweatpants and gave it to him. Bill pulled them on and then dragged her close to him.
"Yeah but until then you won’t be wearing an almost see through t-shirt and pants so big you will drop them to the ground." He spanked her ass and she jumped in surprise. She giggled and laid her arms around his neck and sat her foot against his thigh so she could more or less climb him.
"You are so jealous…" she said when she had her legs around his waist.
"Nooo…" he said with a smile.
"Yes you are, but it's okay… Because I know it's because you're crazy in love with me," she said with a silly voice and threw her ponytail around. He didn't say anything but he kissed her hard.
After having eaten one too many cinnamon rolls with even more coffee, Bill and Aurora laid on the couch to just watch Swedish morning programs with English subtitles and snuggle. Bill could have laid like that all day and searched for a series for them to watch but Aurora felt restless after having been locked in in Bill's apartment for two days. She had been in Sweden a couple times before but never had the opportunity to really explore.
"So… What's the plan for today?" She asked and sat up. Bill looked at her and felt a worry grow in him.
"Ehh… Can't we just chill?"
"Babe, we have chilled for two days. Sorry but I can't stand being inside anymore!"
Bill sat up on his elbows and licked his lips. The plan was never that she would be locked in at his place, they even had been so optimistic they had just hired security for the his movie premiere but now that they were in Stockholm he no longer trusted the people of Stockholm. Aurora was too good and no one would let her just be, everyone wanted a piece of her.
"I think like a walk and maybe sit down somewhere for some wine…"
"Are you drinking in public?" Bill asked confused and looked at Aurora searching for stuff in her luggage.
"I thought so? You said Sweden is so safe?"
She searched in his wardrobes for hangers comfortably, his home was hers as soon as she put her foot there. Bill thought about what he had said to her but now regretted it. Sweden wasn't that safe. He often made it sound like it was better than it was, only because he thought it was better than the US.
"Sometimes… I guess. But there are some sick sons of bitches here too."
Aurora didn't answer, she stood and looked at a baby blue mini dress. He knew she had already decided that she would go out and he knew it also was the right thing to do but he still looked at her and knew he would probably need to protect her but also fight for her attention.
He continued to look at her getting herself ready for the day. Perfect makeup, curlers in her hair and the baby blue dress over glowing skin. He got himself ready when she was almost done. He pulled on a pair of light blue jeans, a black tennis shirt and a cap then he was ready. He looked at Aurora picking shoes, she had a suitcase just for shoes and tried the sneakers on with the dress as if there was a science to it. He couldn't really get used to how much time she put into her appearance but didn't say anything because the one time he did she had started to cry.
"I'm ready!" She said with a bright smile, holding her pink handbag and her white little sweater. Bill smiled a bit amused, she really looked like a doll. How did he get her?
"You look pretty," he said and opened the door for her.
"Thanks daddy," she said teasingly and walked out. Bill rubbed his eye with a smirk. It was really surreal to have her there, in his gray everyday life.
They took a walk along Djurgården and she forced him to take silly tourist pictures of them, even if so many people stopped them to take their own pictures of them. He wasn't always happy with the idea of taking pictures but Aurora's joy was infectious and they even let some people take pictures of them kissing. He would never have done something like that before but with Aurora it was so simple. He didn't think about whether he had a name to protect, to seem professional or how old he was. He just played around with her, even if they had an audience. He let her jump on his back, he let her lick ice cream from his face, he didn't even think about that somebody might have taken pictures. He was really happy Aurora had forced him out and he was so proud to show Stockholm his girl. His sunshine girl.
They walked hand in hand over Stockholm's bridges, through the parks and by the old buildings. He told her about it, he had read quite a lot about Stockholm's history and she listened to him interested and hugged his hand in hers. Some teenagers shouted at them and Bill quickly felt the protectiveness go up, he was after all the only security she had for the day but Aurora just waved at them and then stopped by a restaurant by the water.
"I'm hungry," she said and looked up at him. She just wanted a greasy burger and it seemed like you could get gourmet burgers in every corner of Stockholm.
"Sure." He looked at the menu. "The burger?" He said with a smirk.
"The burger," she answered with a bright smile.
"Bill!" Someone shouted at him and he looked up. It was Kalle and his other friend John. Aurora looked between Bill and the guys and got a bit nervous to meet some of his Swedish friends, she had only met some of his American friends. Bill gave them each a hug with a laugh as they said something in Swedish she couldn't understand, then they all turned to her and she noticed how his friends' eyes got bigger.
"This is my girlfriend, Aurora," Bill said with a smile and put a proud arm around her waist. They shook her hand friendly but she could see how John wiggled with his eyebrows towards Bill. She was used to it, even if she was a hardworking business woman she would always be treated like she was an accessory to her man by many people.
"So what plans do you have?" Asked Kalle in English and smiled towards them. Aurora had a good feeling about him.
"Aurora wants a burger so we’re going to try to find a table here somewhere."
"If Bill can find a table easily, it must be even easier for you," said John to her with a smile but she still got a bad vibe from him.
"We are on our way to have a beer, the weather is great!" Said Kalle. Bill had said Swedes like to talk about the weather so she smiled at him.
"It is, Sweden shows its best side for me," she said with a giggle and John looked her up and down. Bill gave him a fast look but waved it away, he had never ever gotten a bad vibe from John before.
"Are the Swedes kind to you?" Kalle cordially asked.
"Yeah totally! But Bill is so nervous! I don't know what you think will happen!" She turned to him with a teasing smile.
"I believe someone will push you in the water or something. Or just throw you up on their shoulder and run!" He said dramatically and she laughed which encouraged him to do the same.
"Yeah I guess that actually could happen…" said John and looked her up and down again with a smirk.
"I think we should go get that beer but it's really nice to meet you," said Kalle and gave Bill a hug again. Bill gave them both a one armed hug so he didn't need to release Aurora's hand. John moved towards Aurora and bent down and gave her a hug too and Bill furrowed his brows. He had never gotten a bad feeling about John before but now with Aurora it felt completely different. When the two men had walked away Bill looked down at Aurora with worry.
"He doesn't usually act like that…"
She smiled a little and shrugged her shoulders, worse things had happened to her than an awkward hug.
"It's okay. Everyone can behave weirdly sometimes."
Bill nodded a little to himself but pulled Aurora closer, suddenly it felt like every man was looking at her with predatory stares.
They found a table outside and both ate a burger. He looked at her drinking a glass of champagne as dessert. It was the first time she drank in public with him and even if he got protective he also felt warm that she trusted him so much that she could relax.
"I'm nervous about tomorrow," she said with an anxious smile. Bill sat where he had the afternoon sun in his face and it made his skin and hair glow. "A Scandinavian beauty", thought Aurora and got warm by seeing him so fresh and handsome in the late spring light.
"Why? It will be really small and relaxed. It's nothing like the premieres in the US, it's more like a home party."
"Yeah but… Everyone you love will be there and I don't know, what if they hate me?"
"Has anyone ever hated you?"
"Your ex isn't that fond of me…" she said with an amused smirk. Bill shook his head, it had become more obvious every time they met that his ex had something against Aurora.
"I don't know what her problem is."
"She's still in love with you," said Aurora neutrally. She had said it a couple times before but Bill just smirked at her every time, he was sure his ex wasn't in love with him but it did seem like Aurora was a bit jealous.
"She will be there tomorrow. I always invite her to things, I guess to be polite."
Aurora nodded a little.
"I guess that's logical. Hopefully she doesn't strangle me in the darkness of the movie theater." Bill laughed and dragged his hands over her naked knees under the table.
×××
There was chaos in Bill's apartment the next day. He had somehow believed Aurora would be a bit more chill at this little premiere than she usually would but by noon a hair stylist and makeup artist pushed their way into Bill's place. He watched her transform from perfect to even more perfect while he himself laid on the couch with his laptop on his stomach. He had thought that he would get some work done but instead he just watched Aurora's transformation. It was obvious this was the highlight of the stylists' career but Aurora was also an extremely picky and demanding customer. She was never unfriendly but made them nervous because it seemed like she had more knowledge than them.
Bill looked at his suit hanging in a garment cover on the bedroom door. It was just a simple black suit from Tom Ford but sat impeccably tailored. He had gotten a suit from a Swedish designer he had chosen to wear at first and sent pictures to Aurora. She didn't say anything about it and he knew her so well now he knew it was a bad sign. Even if he didn't want to be affected he asked for her opinion and she said it looked cheap and that it was too small over his shoulders. He had always doubted his ex-girlfriends opinions but he could see at once Aurora was right but he still felt obligated to use the Swedish suit. As soon as he said that to Aurora she just shook her head and said that it didn't work and called Tom Ford's head office and said to Bill to blame it on her. So he did. He said to the Swedish designer that Aurora had already arranged a suit for him to wear and they bought it without any drama. He was happy that she said what she really thought but was still surprised how much he cared.
"Your turn!" Said Aurora with her hair and makeup done and pulled her silk robe tighter around her body. Bill gave her a confused look.
"No, I’ll do my hair by myself, that's actually for the best." He smiled doubtfully and laughed a little.
"Not the hair, I mean your face." She looked at herself in a makeup mirror and took away some lipstick on her teeth with her tongue.
Bill has worn makeup at several premieres as to not look greasy or too pale in the bright flashes of the photographers' cameras but never in Sweden. It wasn't such a big deal there and there weren’t as many photographers.
"I'm okay," he said and looked down at his computer. Aurora just stood and looked at him and played with her nails. He looked at her confused but didn't say anything. For a while it was quiet between them because Aurora obviously wanted to say something but Bill didn't ask what.
"It's just…" she said carefully and Bill sighed with a smirk.
"Yeah?" He asked with a pointed smile. He knew she would say what she wanted if he just stared her down a while.
"It's probably the weather but… Your t-zone is quite shiny right now and in bright lighting it will…"
He sighed but smirked. He put down the laptop on the couch and stood up.
"Fine, fine." He sat down in the makeup chair that was way too high because they had just put on makeup on Aurora who was so much shorter.
When Bill was ready to go he sat down on the backrest of the couch and waited on Aurora who still was in the bathroom. He wasn't really nervous but wondered how it would be to go to such a thing in Sweden with Aurora. He had a feeling it would be quite different than what he usually experienced in the past. Aurora came out in the same pink heels he had seen her in a couple days before and a black dress. Her hair was gathered in a low ponytail that laid sleek over her shoulder. She was more modest than he had ever seen her but when she turned around he realized that wasn't really true. The dress was in a halter neck model and was tied around her neck with a big pink bow while her back was completely bare just like much of her sides, he could even see her little B tattoo.
Aurora just smiled a little. She didn't need to hear she looked good, she could already see on his face what he thought.
"I will never understand why the director wanted me to bring you, no one will even pay attention to the movie with you in the room," said Bill as he looked her up and down.
"Maybe it is because he realized it's a really bad movie," she joked and took her little glittery bag.
Bill made an amused sound and shook his head.
"I hear you have high expectations of me," he joked and laid his arm around her after they had walked out from the apartment and he had locked the door.
"You're the best, baby but sometimes you pick weird projects," she said honestly and let him guide her down the stairs. She struggled a bit as she walked down the stairs with chunky heels.
He didn't say anything, just smiled lovesick and looked at her concentrating on not falling down the stairs.
×××
It was not at all as it usually would be. They had their own security, two beefy guys that would follow them around, mostly Aurora, but the production company had seemed to have procured security too. The modest entrance of the movie theater was adorned with fairy lights and a broad red carpet that was empty while the other guests walked on another carpet to the side. He could see that there were quite well known Swedish celebrities but the broad carpet seemed to be saved for someone else.
"Vad fan…" whispered Bill for himself and pinched his lower lip.
"What?" Said Aurora, unknowing to what was happening. She couldn't see that the people that were steered away from the broad carpet were famous people and were made to use the slimmer carpet.
"Nothing babe," he said and kissed her hand before the car stopped by the broad carpet and the security jumped out. He looked at Aurora, she didn't look nervous, public performances were the most natural thing for her and her nerves would probably hit her when it was time for the after party.
There were more people around the carpet then there usually were, and many more photographers too as he realized when he jumped out. People shouted and applauded, especially when Aurora came out in her pink heels. It didn't really feel like his Sweden but it wasn't really, now it was Aurora's. There were many feelings being around her in public. Pride, protectiveness but also an awkward feeling of standing behind her. Not really because she got so much attention because he received it too and he didn't really care, the problem was that he didn't have her attention. He knew he was childish but when he saw others doing anything to touch her, be close to her his heart palpitated with jealousy. It was a bit better inside when they just posed for the photographers. She did it comfortably and with purpose she turned a bit away from the photographers and looked over her shoulder so she could show the back of the dress. She could feel Bill becoming stiff next to her and she looked up at him with a bright smile that made him smile too. She giggled and it made him smile bigger. The photographers probably got some great shots of them, drowning in each other's eyes.
When they stepped away from the carpet he noticed many of the photographers turned to Aurora anyway but when he gave them a questioning look they let her be.
A young man with a tray came up to them but looked nervous and out of focus.
"Champagne?"
He held the tray out in front of them with the glasses.
"Do you have anything alcoholic free?" Bill asked in Swedish. He would also drink alcohol free, both to keep Aurora company but also because he was nervous something would happen.
They spoke with some journalists, someone that filmed for the TV news. Mostly they did the interviews together, they were like vultures on Aurora otherwise and she thought it was boring that the security would come in like annoying big brothers.
"There is my dad," said Bill suddenly to her and nodded to a tall older man. She knew well who Stellan was and she became almost a bit starstruck seeing him. He seemed to be such a lovely person. He walked towards them with a bright smile along with his wife.
"There is a little more commotion here than there usually is," he said and gave his son a hug.
"And here is the beauty that has mesmerized my son," he said to Aurora with a big smile. She giggled a little.
"I guess it is," she said and gave Bill a fast look. She shook Stellan's hand and his wife's and the both of them were so friendly. She hadn't really expected anything else either. Stellan seemed to be such a warm man and his wife was 25 years younger than him, it wasn't like he would care that his son was with a woman 16 years younger than him. Bill's father and wife moved on to talk with some other guests and she could see two of Bill's big brothers waiting to talk to them. Aurora took a sip of her alcoholic free sparkling wine just to wet her throat and then let two more tall men with their respective partners swallow her up. All of them were so tall, even the girlfriends and she felt quite lost in all the Swedish and tall people but it was just for a moment until they turned to her and spoke English. All of them were really nice and she relaxed little by little. Even at the after party she was calm, mostly because her pride over Bill took over. The movie had been really great and it was obvious he was the star. He was funny and quick. And hot and she leaned into him just to tell him how sexy and awesome he was. Bill felt proud like a peacock and felt himself grow an inch of the praise from her and so many others and to have the most beautiful, charismatic woman in the room by his side. Everyone was quite mesmerized by them and he had never before felt a woman move with him so well. Their chemistry was obvious and people looked at them just as interested as they had watched the movie but of course there were skeptics in the room. One of them was Bill's ex who looked at them annoyed while they slow-danced together on the dance floor. Aurora had taken off her shoes and Bill had lifted her up to not break his back by leaning down so much. They looked precious, even she could see that, but what was annoying her the most was that several of Eija's friends took pictures of the two, with the couple's consent. Girls that had never accepted her but now acted as if Bill and Aurora were the leads in a romcom.
Bill let her go after a while and gave her the shoes and a peck on the lips before she walked towards the bathroom with one of her security guys.
"Hey Aurora," said his ex when she walked by her with a friendly smile. Aurora giggled with surprise and turned to her.
"Oh hey, I really must pee, do you want to come with me?" She asked his ex who looked at her confused. It felt like a really teenage thing to invite someone when you went to the toilet.
"Okay…" she said doubtfully and followed the petite girl into the bathroom. She wondered quietly if she was drunk or something.
"So you're here with Bill?" She asked outside of the stall while she heard Aurora pee.
"Yes it's amazing to see Sweden! I love it."
His ex looked at herself in the mirror. She had been drinking and felt quite confrontational.
"Yeah… But don't you feel like he's a bit old for you? I mean, you're so young and vibrant."
Aurora giggled again. His ex rolled her eyes, she hated that giggle.
"That giggle you do, have you always done that?"
Aurora came out from the booth with her shoes on and washed her hands.
"Yeah, why?" She looked at his ex through the mirror. The ex didn't really like viewing the reflection of the two of them next to each other and lowered her gaze.
"It sounds a bit fake…"
Aurora looked down. Did she want to hurt her? She took a deep breath.
"Actually it was my father that said to me at a young age he loved it so I started to do it more and then I guess it stuck?" She continued to talk with a low gaze. His ex did the same but still felt a need to just push her around a bit. The next day she would regret it because it was obvious the combination of hurt feelings, alcohol and a wobbling self esteem made her do it.
"Yeah Bill said you're close with your father… You lived with them for a long time?"
"Yeah I lived with them until I bought the house. I love my parents." Aurora smiled a little but still didn't dare to look at his ex. His ex laughed a little.
"Oh wow. I thought about joking about… Oh wow…"
Aurora looked up at her now.
"Hm?"
"Yeah, that you're so young that you just left your parents' home. Do you have your room intact at their place too?"
Aurora looked at her in silence. She did have her old room intact at her parents house but wouldn't give her the satisfaction.
"You know, Bill and I were together for 12 years. A healthy grown up relationship. What he's doing with you isn't that." She looked at Aurora up and down.
"You're a child." She said before leaving the bathroom with her head high. Aurora still couldn't get a word out. She knew she would cry again, like the child she was, she would break down in tears again, needing comfort. It was better to stay inside the bathroom so no one else would think the same thing as Bill's ex.
Bill's phone vibrated in the inner pocket of his suit jacket. He stood with some of his co-stars and laughed at an inside joke. He took up the phone, guessing it might be his ex's parents who were babysitting but saw "Little Lou" on his screen.
"Yeah, babe? Where are you?" He answered fast, covering his other ear to hear her. He worried something had happened. Even if nothing had ever really happened to her while they were together but he could see how men looked at her.
"Ehh… One of the security guys is just driving me around… I didn't feel so good…"
Bill could hear that she was upset. Aurora had stopped crying but just wanted out of the party but she didn't have a key to Bill’s so instead the security just drove her around Stockholm so she could calm down.
Bill walked away from his company to a calmer corner of the club.
"Why didn't you call me sooner? We could have just gone home."
"I didn't want to ruin things for you but then I realized you maybe would worry if you didn't find me and… Yeah it ended up like this…" she said and pulled up her feet in the car seat. She had taken off her shoes and pulled out some pins out of her hair that bugged her.
Bill sighed a little, not because he was irritated with her or that his night probably was over but because she believed she shouldn't say anything to him. She was the one he wanted to be with the most, if she wanted to go, then he wanted that too.
"Can you tell the security to pick me up? I want to be with you babe."
Aurora smiled a little at his words.
"You can just give me the keys. I can manage being alone for a while."
"No, I want to be with you. Just pick me up. My party is with you," he said sweetly and smirked to himself. He was such a sap. Aurora giggled, but stopped abruptly because she could hear words from earlier that night being whispered in her ear.
He heard Aurora say to the driver that they would pick him up and he smiled a little but there was something that felt off, her way of abruptly stopping her giggling and her upset tone. Something had happened.
×××
He didn't ask her much about the after party because she seemed to just want to snuggle and he thought they could talk about it the next day. Aurora woke up before Bill and looked at him, he was pink in the cheek from the heat in the room and his hair was messy. She was still fascinated that a grown man could be so cute and dragged a finger tip over his plump lips. He looked up at her with big tired eyes and Aurora snuggled in closer to him. That broad manly chest that made her feel secure and safe everytime he was near. She didn't want to think about the night before, what his ex had said and put it away in a corner to think about on a grayer day. Today it was sunny, the cherry blossoms were in full bloom and Bill was hard. A perfect spring morning. She kissed him with a lot of tongue and he smirked into the kiss. They made out messily in the spring sun and Aurora pushed down his boxers so his cock slapped against his stomach but they were abruptly interrupted by Aurora's phone. She ignored it ones, like she had done when it rang in the middle of the night but when it called again she felt forced to answer.
"I'm sorry…" She said to Bill. "Hey Andrew."
"God why don't you answer? I've been trying to call you all night!"
"Hello, time difference? I've been sleeping."
Andrew sighed loudly.
"Time to work then because now the gossip is spreading again!" He said upset. Bill looked at Aurora with furrowed brows, he could hear Andrew through the phone.
"Okay?"
"Look at the things I'm sending to you."
Aurora put the speaker on and looked at the pictures she received from Andrew. It was mostly from Instagram but also some gossip sites.
Aurora Lou pregnant!
Swedish source say Aurora Lou and Bill Skarsgård are expecting their first child!
Aurora laughed a little. People made up so much shit.
"So? Why do they believe that?" She asked and let Bill look over her shoulder at the screenshots Andrew had sent to her.
"Something about you two not drinking alcohol, that you have a belly but also that Bill has told people that!"
Bill furrowed his brows.
"I haven't said she's pregnant," he said to Andrew, who became quiet when he realized Bill could hear him. "And Aurora definitely does not look pregnant."
"They’re not my words, Bill, it's gossip."
"Yeah, yeah. Who cares really? We have been together for 10 months, that's the time you can be together in Hollywood before they either think you should have a baby or get married."
Aurora smiled a bit amused towards Bill and gave him a kiss on the cheek, she was glad he didn't make such a big thing out of it either.
"I just think you can post something on IG that kills these rumors."
"Like what? An ultrasound?" She joked and Bill laughed a little.
"Don't give me that attitude. You know I just want your best Princess."
Aurora rolled her eyes.
"Yeah, okay Andrew. I will see what I can cook up."
When they had hung up she looked down at Bill who had laid down again and kicked the cover off so he laid glorious naked. She dragged a hand up his hairy thigh and Bill answered by pushing his crotch out with a smirk.
"But you know it will happen," he said and laid her hand around his half hard cock. She looked at him with a confused smile and dragged her hand up and down his member.
"I will get you pregnant one day. Maybe sooner than you know." He smirked coyly but Aurora just furrowed her brows and let go of him.
"No."
Bill didn't really see the signals and just dragged her close and pushed her down in bed.
"I will put a baby in you… Maybe even now…" he kissed her neck but got shoved away harshly.
"Against my will in that case," said Aurora, upset and moved away from him. "I don't want any kids." Bill smiled a bit condescending.
"Sure you will. You will change your mind."
"No. I don't want to have kids. I've known that since I was a teenager."
Bill licked his lips and covered himself.
"But you love kids? You're great with kids?"
"Yeah but that doesn't mean I want them. And like you have three already. I thought you were finished with that?"
Bill could feel the hostility steam from her and tried to lay a calming hand on her knee but she just pushed it away. She heard her phone vibrate again but just waited for an answer from Bill.
"I don't know… I just thought that you… I have just thought a lot about you and I having our own little baby." He said with a little smile and she could see on his face how much the thought of a baby made him light up. She just felt nauseous when she thought about having a baby. She had her dogs and her plants. That was enough for her.
"I don't want a baby. I don't like that thought at all." She looked almost disgusted and for some reason felt Bill hurt. He looked her up and down. He had fantasized about getting her pregnant more than he cared to admit. Having a chubby baby that was just theirs. He had even thought about getting her pregnant while they had sex, fantasized about how his seed would plant in her and make her belly round. Aurora sat with her legs crossed tightly together like he would never ever get to come close to her again. She really didn't want a child and was so tired of hearing that she would change her mind. She didn't want a kid. Never ever. One of the reasons for her being so open to dating a guy that already had kids was because she thought he was finished. That he had already ended that chapter of his life. Instead she could see on his face that he was disappointed and upset but she would never become a mom to please a guy. She looked at her phone to distract herself and saw a new picture from Andrew but this was something else. It was a black and white picture of two people kissing in bed. Bill and Michelle. Her assistant Michelle.

Loved the chapter as always. I feel like you have a great sense for how the boys would potentially act in a scenario because of course Hongjoong would have a little bit of a freak out as the captain. Totally valid, we love you king. I’d love it if you talked through your writing process and maybe any tips for believably accurate fanfics?
Also. Totally agree with whoever was talking about Jongho’s thighs LOL
How could we NOT be all thinking about his thighs (and the possible riding opportunities) when he literally went viral for SITTING IN A CHAIR. We really are a thirsty fandom.
And in the future I do hope everyone remembers the absolute brat tamer this man is (talking about tour clips, the one where he single handedly man handles wooyoung and yeosang when they are annoying him) and how he has talked about how he just keeps his cute image because that’s what atiny seemed to like. I have a strong feeling he is the most dom out of all the boys (as i said. Mega brat tamer energy)
thank you so much!! i really appreciate this and your reviews always 💓 first, seriously hell yes to jongho thighs everything and being a brat tamer i actually would LOVE to see that
as far as my writing process goes, i have talked a bit about that in my unofficial tag #onwriting but i can give you some more details because i have a serious commitment to things feeling believable and i appreciate you saying that.
the first time i wrote anything for ateez it was the first chapter of aurora, and while i love aurora, i'm the first to admit that my understanding of those characters and even just the quality of the writing has improved the longer i've worked on it. i can tell you now, there's actually no universe in which i think choi san would be smoking a cigarette, but at the time i didn't really know that. at the time i just thought it was a hot image lol
over the course of really digging into my headcanons of them, i spent time writing up imagines for them as boyfriends/husbands/fathers etc., and i think that started to sure up my images of them.
i've spent a LOT of time watching ateez content as well, and i return to their more candid interviews or lives again and again to get their voices as close to right as possible. i feel the most comfortable with yunho and san, which is honestly why members like joong and jongho took longer to feature in aurora. i think listening to the way they talk and watching their physical traits while talking helps sure up those images. for example, mingi laughs silently a lot so when i write him laughing i try to include that as a detail. yunho hums a lot when he listens to someone speaking, it's an active listening trait that i can hear him doing all the time, so you'll notice those descriptors popping up.
i have pages of headcanons written up about all of them that has really helped inform my clear images of them and helped shape how i write them. i think this is an exercise you can do with anything, including original characters. for my original characters that feature in any work, i do this kind of write up. little things about how people talk, walk, eat, etc. all come together to make a character or a person feel a lot richer and i think i spend a lot of time thinking about that when i'm preparing to write.
the other thing i spend a lot of time on is setting. i have never been to korea, but most of my writing takes place there. i'm really cognizant of the fact that i'm getting details wrong, there's no way i wouldn't, but i do my best to try and find out about the setting so i can write something at least somewhat authentic feeling. for chapters written in seoul, i've watched countless walking tours around the city, for the scenes set around the han river in particular. there are some upcoming chapters that feature descriptions of gwangju and i also watched walking/driving tours and did research about what the city really feels like.
when i describe a location it's usually a real place. in a future chapter i include a description of a coffee shop that the reader is in and the food she gets, and i don't name the shop but it's a real place. i described the interior, chose items off the real menu, etc. to make it feel more plausible.
if someone is cooking in the fic, i want to know what they're cooking and what goes into it. i don't want to just say "cooking dinner" over and over again, and that usually adds to my ability to picture what's going on. in the chapter of aurora where yunho makes her steamed eggs, i made sure steamed eggs is something that people actually DO eat for breakfast and then i used a real recipe / video on how to make steamed eggs to try and get the details right so that instead of repeating "making breakfast" i could talk about adding the mirin or sugar.
the last thing i'll offer is that my friends help A LOT. i have three beta readers who read almost every piece of my writing before it gets posted, and they know all my outlines. when i'm trying to figure something out, i talk to them. we have long conversations about all the members down to all the little details, and that's really helped me understand them better.
hopefully this helps and didn't sound incredibly pretentious lmao - i've been writing for like fifteen years and was an english literature major in school so living in the world of reading/writing is just who i am and i get excited talking about it 😅

Hiii my love🌷💕
How are you?
Now I came to your blog to request something! I was thinking if I could get an ateez astrology (love) or written shipp? 🥰
I’ll let here my infos and let you choose who is the best for me!
So here’s my big 6
Sun: Pisces | moon: Gemini | ascendant: Pisces
Mercury: Aquarius | Venus: Pisces | mars: Aries
Written part haha
Well I’m 2002 line, from 22/02. Talking about physical appearance I’m not tall honestly hahaha I have a dark brown hair but I’ll change it and do a Oreo hair like Wooyoung (again)!!! 🥹💕 I’m a intj 6w5 don’t know if it changes something hahaha well about my personality I’m a quiet person, but with friends I’m more extrovert. Not loud at all but when I get too excited I talk more loudly hahaha Wooyoungie mood. Usually I’m the quiet emo sibling in the friend group but I always end it acting like a mom. But even that I take care of my friends, people says I’m someone cold? Like just hard to read and approach (even I think I’m very friendly) but I have to admit that sometimes I have a bad attitude and can’t deny my sarcastic ass (but I grew up only with scorpios so I have an excuse) I don’t think I’m cold, just selective because there’s some people that don’t deserve our time and energy. Ngl I have some kinda combo with mommy and daddy issues and it is a SHIT but I really like to joke about because is better laugh than cry (who can blame me, a psychologist is very expansive these days). Fun fact I hate use emojis Ik I use a lot but it’s because I’m afraid people will think I’m being rude or cold hearted so I use it (I heard it a lot). I LOVE dance, honestly my dream was be a professional dancer but I’m a little old to archive it. I’m insanely in love with music, I even work in group of radios, with 10 radios to be exact. I know kpop since 2010 because of my grandma yes I know that’s weird but yes because of my grandma hhahahaha I’m Brazilian and learned English by myself so sometimes I do some mistakes since I didn’t had a teacher and now I don’t have enough time to study English again because im in university, working and I also exercise and study Korean. Fun fact I can’t stay with empty head because I go crazy so I do a lot of things (not me trying to not say adhd). I love tulips like a insane love for tulips and butterflies. I love to read, clean the house, asmr (I spend HOURS of my night that I could be sleeping just to see people restocking their kitchen with asmr sounds, is my therapy). I like make up, I like astronomy as well and I love to write. I don’t like spiders and sun. Yes is weird I don’t like sun but is because one time I stayed too much in sun that my skin burns and since then I avoid sun. I love animals and have one dog, one frog, birds and I wanted a cat and a snake but I can’t sadly. Don’t know what more to add here, but since is too long I’ll stop here! Thank you so so so much honey 💕🌷

Abscondance  of the Future Herald
Chiyo inhaled deeply, letting the crisp evening air flow into her lungs. It was an invigorating sensation, especially tonight. She sat at a small table outside a cafe in Aurora Vale, sipping at some tea and watching the sun begin to set. Her eyes drifted attentively around, scanning the crowd. There was someone important she was supposed to meet here, and it was almost time.
After a few minutes, she caught sight of someone that seemed to match the description. It was a blonde woman, garbed in all black. She was strolling down the sidewalk, and shot a glance over to Chiyo. She supposed that was the signal. Chiyo kept her eyes on the woman, waiting to see what she would do.
The woman continued on her way, passing behind a street pole and out of view. At the same time, the lowering sun stretched Chiyo’s shadow clear across the street, intersecting with the pole. The woman never reappeared on the other side. Then it was done.
A smirk spread across the girl’s face as she finished the last of her tea. She then rose to pay and headed on her way. Off to the station then. She had to return home before curfew. While on the train, she gazed out of the window, watching as the sun dipped even lower in the sky. The timing was almost eerily perfect.
In time, Chiyo returned to Cherry Hills, entering the gates as she’d always done. Only a short jaunt home from here. Hopefully she wasn’t keeping anyone waiting too long. At long last though, she finally made it to her home. From there, she went immediately to her sister’s room, knocking gently before entering.
Tumblr media
“Oh, hey,” Leiko greeted weakly, turning her attention to the noise. “How’d it go? Did you meet with them?”
Tumblr media
“Indeed I did,” Chiyo replied, shutting the door behind her. Her disposition was much more pleasant than her sister’s it seemed, unflappable as she always was.
Tumblr media
“O-Oh....” Leiko’s voice trailed off a moment. “Then... where are they?”
Then, clearly listening to the conversation and waiting for a cue, a mass began to climb its way out of Chiyo’s shadow. First, one arm snaked its way out, followed by the other, both bracing on the floor to pull the head to the surface dramatically. Leiko watched on in horror as the shadowy figure gradually came into focus, astounded to find it was a woman.
Tumblr media
“Man, I gotta say, you sure took your sweet-ass time getting here.” The woman draped one arm around Chiyo’s shoulder in a familiar way. “Anyone told you your shadow’s cramped? I mean, can’t complain too much considering the view.” She followed the statement with a wink, causing Chiyo to roll her eyes. Then the woman turned to the other twin.
“What’s wrong girlie? You look like you’ve seen a ghost.”
Tumblr media
“Um, s-sorry. Not everyday I see someone crawl out of my sister’s shadow like I’m in some horror movie.”
Tumblr media
“You know, I do get that a lot actually.” She let out a hearty laugh, clearly not at all bothered by the sleight.
Tumblr media
“Anyway,” Chiyo interjected, attempting to regain control of the situation. “I take it you are Wraith, correct? Celedon said you would be able to take her all the way to the drop point inconspicuously, and at first I wasn’t sure if I could believe them. Now I feel a bit more confident in their assessment.”
Tumblr media
“That’s right! I can take you anywhere you wanna go! And I do mean anywhere.”
Tumblr media
“Excellent!” Chiyo looked past her sister at the window, watching as the last of the sun’s light vanished below the horizon. “In a matter of minutes, the lights of the city will be on in full force. That means all the more shadow coverage for you to make your moves. I will leave this in your hands.”
Tumblr media
“In that case, let’s get going. I’m getting antsy here.” The woman sauntered her way up to Leiko, who was visibly still a little unsettled by all of this.
“By the way girlie, you’re kinda cute. You know, we don’t have to go straight to point B. We can always stop by my place if you wanna have some fun~.”
Tumblr media
“Um, I have a girlfriend, actually. No thanks.”
Tumblr media
“So? Call her up too!” Another laugh, then without waiting for an answer, pulled the girl over to the window, flinging it open. And with one last, “Lighten up, would you?” both of the girls sunk down into the shadows, and out into the night.
Chiyo watched the window a moment. She was sure they were gone at this point, but she never went to close it. After all, a kidnapping had just occurred. It would pay to have some evidence left behind. Chiyo took another scan around the room. Leiko had messed up her bedsheets and discarded her pillow as instructed, as well as scattering some of the personal effects from her end table. That would certainly paint the scene of a struggle. Another glace at the other end of the room showed that her sister’s duffel bag, as well as her next day’s outfit were hanging up in the closet, and her aShine was on the dresser. Everything looked like she ought to still be here.
Tumblr media
Everything was going to work out perfectly.

A Sleeping Beauty(Husband!/Prince!Shoto Todoroki x Wife!/Aurora!Reader)(Royal/Sleeping Beauty AU)
A.N: I hope you will like this scenario and I had fun writing it :D I will probably do more Disney stories like this with other characters and have fun reading! :)
If I made a mistake feel free to tell me! :)
Genre:Fluff
Warnings: Female pronouns(She/Her)
Story Used:"Sleeping Beauty" Disney adaptation
Tumblr media
"Daddy! It's time for my bed time story!",your 4 years old kid yells(You can choose a girl,a boy or a non-binary kid).
"I'm coming princess/prince/royal",your husband Shoto responds while smiling at you both's creation.
He thanks you everyday for giving him the most beautiful gift you could have given him, a child of his own.
He goes sit on the bed of his kid and he sees your down expression on your face while you pass in the hallway.
You have been feeling down lately because of work, but you didn't want to show it to your family, but Shoto knows you too well and saw that you were down. An idea pops in his head at this moment.
"Hey Honey? Would like to come listen to the story with us. The one of today is special.", you smile at him
"Of course. I'll go get a blanket and I'm coming."
You then get back with the big blanket and put it on you, Shoto and your kid.
"So, you said that today's story was special?",you look at your husband.
"Yes. I took a story and changed it a bit at my manner."
"I'm excited to see", said your kid with a big grin on their face.
"Ok, so here it is":
Once upon a time, in the Kingdom of (Your Country), was born a beautiful princess named Y/N L/N.
"Just like mommy!", said your kid while cutting Shoto's story.
"Yes just like Mommy, and she was just as beautiful as your mother."
You knew where this was going and a smile popped on your face at his actions.
For the birth of the princess, their parents has organized a big event where all the kingdom and the Kingdom of the king Enji who had just gotten a fourth kid nammed Shoto, was invited. The parents(I made it so it works if you have two moms or two dads), had invited three fairies and they each would give the princess a gift. The first one, Katsuki, gave the princess the gift of beauty. The second one, Tenya, gave the princess the gift of a beautiful voice.
"For now the story works with mommy's description"
"You think so",said Shoto
"Yeah! Mommy is very beautiful and she has a pretty voice when she sings"
"You don't have to say all that",you respond while blushing a bit
"Also the prince has the same name as you daddy"
"Yeah. Imagine the princess and the prince ends up together like me and mommy."
"It would be so cute!"
"Before you continue, does the fairies has the same names as uncle Kacchan and uncle Iida?"
'Yeah, and the third one's name is Izuku just like uncle Midoriya"
"Ohhhhh you can continue"
Shoto continues:
When it was the turn of the third fairy,Izuku, a big amount of smoke appeared. It was the shapeshifter witch Himiko Toga.
"No one invited me to the party? How sad. Well I guess I can also give something to the little girl now that I'm here."
"No! You won't touch her and get her blood you crazy witch!"
"Oh come on! You know I have something better. You didn't invite to the celebration when you know I love parties. You know what? I'm gonna give the princess a gift! She will pick her finger on a spinning wheel on her sixteenth birthday and die!"
"NO!", yelled your parents
Himiko then disapeared in a cloud of smoke. The third fairy hasn't given her gift yet. He decides to give her the gift that instead of dying, she will fall into a deep slumber until someone gives her a true love kiss. The parents of the girl orders that all spinning wheels of the kingdom must be burned and the parents decides to let their daughter live with the fairies in a cottage in the forest.
Many years later, the princess turns into a beautiful and wonderful woman. She doesn't know her parents are the royal family and she thinks she's just a peseant and that Katsuki,Tenya and Izuku educated her after her parents died. It is now Y/N's sixteeth birthday and the fairies wants to organize her a surprise party.
"Y/N? Could you please go gather berries for the dessert tonight?", said Tenya.
"Of course! I'll be back later!"
"And don't forget not talk to strangers!",reminded Katsuki
Y/N left the house and went to go gather the berries in the forest. The girl then decided to go by the river a little while. The animals then gather aroud her. She always had a good relationship with animals and she taught they could understand her.
Meanwhile, the prince Shoto, who has also become a handsome young man, was out with his horse and heard the voice of the girl. He got struck by the beauty of her voice he wanted to know who she was. He tried to follow the voice but on his way, he fell into a pound.
On the side of the river, Y/N is talking with animals about the fact that her godfathers stills treats her like she's a child and she wishes she could meet someone. She then tells them she met someone "Once Upon A Dream". While she tells her dream about her walking with a prince, some of the animals finds the cape,the boots and the hat of the prince and takes them.
(At this part you can listen to the song "Once Upon A Dream" to be more in the ambiance ;) )
The animals acts as the prince of Y/N's dream and dance with her. She is getting directly in the scene and dances with them while pretending she's talking to the prince from her dream. Then at a moment, the real prince Shoto starts to sing. She's surprised at first and tries to go away because he's a stranger. He then tells her: "Don't you remember? You said it yourself, we already met, "Once Upon A Dream"".he then starts to sing again. The princess then gets confidence in him and dances with him like this.
Shoto makes you stand up and puts his hand on your waist. He makes you sway in his arms to slow dance just like the prince with the princess in the story. He starts to sing the song and you get along with it. You both are twirling in your kid's room and having a romantic moment like you never had. Your kid looks at the both of you with amazed eyes and claps at the end of your performance.
"Let's go back to the story shall we?",Shoto says after you both sat down again on the bed.
Y/N invites the young man to meet her godfathers at dinner and he accepts. Meanwhile, at the cottage, the fairies had some trouble to organize the party so they decided to use their magic.
"HUH?! Why the hell would you want to make the dress Blue?! It would obviously be better in Pink!(I can't belive I wrote that haha)",said Katsuki
"Kacchan I was just proposing an idea, but I think that the Blue would be better on Y/N",responded Izuku
"Hell nah! I have way better fashion sense than you damn nerd! She would be so much better in Pink!"
While they were arguying, Tenya was trying to make a cake with no big succes the normal way. With magic, it gave a better result and it looked so delicious. Unfortunately, all the magic that Katsuki, Tenya and Izuku were making was leaving traces and it caught the attention of Himiko's sidekick, Dabi. He hides behind the house and Y/N arrives back home. She tells her godfathers that she has fallen in love, but they don't know it's the prince. They tell her that she's the princess and that she's already engaged to the prince Shoto and they will bring her back to the castle tonight. She goes in her room crying because won't be able to be with the stranger she fell in love with.
Dabi overheard the conversation and went to tell Himiko that the princess would be at the castle tonight.
Meanwhile,the prince tells his father he wants to marry a peseant, which the king Enji is not pleased about.
"SHOTOOO! YOU CAN'T MARRY A PESEANT! YOU'RE ENGAGED TO THE PRINCESS Y/N!"
Shoto didn't care about his father and would go to the dinner at the cottage tonight anyways.
Y/N gets all dressed and ready for her birthday celebration and be with her parents again, but then a glow apears in the room. She follows it by curiosity. The fairies then also see the glow when they come to go get Y/N and try to go as fast as they can to stop her. Unfortunately, they came too late and the beautiful princess was on the floor. Himiko laughs at her victory:
"Hahahaa! I did it! The princess is dead and you came too late!", she disapears and the fairies put the princess in a bed in the highest tower of the castle. They put all the people from the castle in a deep slumber just like Y/N. Before they fell asleep, the king Enji and the parents of Y/N were talking and the fairies understand that the man Y/N fell in love with was the prince. When they go back to the cottage, they realize the prince has already been taken to Himiko's hideout.
"So....", Himiko shows to Shoto his princess in a deep slumber.
"Would you look at that. The beautiful princess you fell in love with has been put in a deep slumber. I think I should let her like this until you become old and raged while she didn't age a bit and you won't be together."
"NO!", Shoto yells.
Y/N was one of the only person Shoto trusted and wanted to be with forever and he was gonna lost her. When Himiko leaves the prince alone, the fairies rescue him and give him a sword and a shield to fight the witch.
Himiko tries to stop Shoto to go in the castle by putting thorns around it, but without succes for her, because the prince breaks them in a sway of his sword. She turns into a big dragon to confront him and the prince fights her furiously. At a moment, he throws the sword into her heart to kill her(I'm sorry TwT I love Toga I didn't want to kill her but it's for the sake of the story TwT).
The prince goes up to the highest tower of the castle and finds his beautiful princess on the bed. He goes closer to her to kiss her on the lips. She wakes up and sees her love smiling at her. They go together in the ballroom and Y/N's parents are glad to see her again after all those years. They all go in a hug and Y/N goes back to her prince and they dance together. While they dance, Katsuki and Izuku are still fighting over the color of the dress.
"I told you Pink, you damn nerd!"
"-_- You know what at this point I won't even try Kacchan."
They then got married a few months later and got many beautiful/handsome childrens.
The end.
"Wow! They ended up together just like you two! It's so cool!", your kid says didn't realizing it was you two all along.
Thanks to Shoto, your sad expression of earlier was long gone.
"It was a beautiful story Sho", you say smiling at him
"I'm glad you both liked it", Shoto responds.
Your kid yawns and you tug them in their bed.
"Goodnight my baby",you say to them.
"Goodnight mommy and daddy,I love you"
"Goodnight", you both say to them.
You peek throught the door to see that they are already asleep.
"So.... Many kids huh?", you say smirking a bit at him.
He also smirks at you and says:"I mean I wouldn't mind giving them a sibling.", he goes closer to you to kiss you on the lips and then rub your arms.
"Would you like to?", he says.
"I wouldn't mind either. You want to start now?", you respond.
He responds to you by smirking.
It's gonna be a long night... ;)
A.N: I hope you enjoyed this story. I had fun writing it and I will probably do more scenarios like this with other characters and stories :)
Have a nice day or night and remember to take care of yourselves! <3 (I'm on my period right now so I try to take care of myself TwT)
You are beautiful and loved! <3
See you soon!

A love for love
Description: Roman loved love. He always had, even as a small child. So why was it so different whenever he was involved?
TW: panic attack, mention of making out but nothing is actually shown, cursing, questioning, unrequited love, let me know if I should add anything else
Ships: unrequited royality, platonic roceit, dukeceit
Genre: high school au
Prompt: prompt 6, aromantic (prompt by @pridewrite2021)
Roman loved love. He always had. Even as a small child, he'd watch wide eyed as Prince Charming leaned down and gave sleeping beauty true loves kiss, something so powerful that it was able to break an evil witches curse. He'd stayed up till early hours in the morning, squealing with excitement as he read about two warriors able to take on an entire army, motivated by their want to keep the other safe and stealing glances at each other as their metal swords collided with the enemies weapon. He'd sing his heart out when a romance song came on the radio, gushing about their love interest with such emotion that Roman adored.
Yes, Roman loved love.
So why was it so different whenever he was involved?
The earliest memory Roman had of this was when he was in first grade. Two of his classmates ran up to him giggling as they sang "Savannah has a crush on you!" Instead of feeling that overwhelming joy like the ones described in his books and music, he felt a deep cutting disgust in his stomach. Roman felt less like he could conquer the world and more like the world was going to swallow him whole. Rather than singing any great love song that he'd sang so many times in his room or in the car, he began crying instead while the two girls looked at him in confusion.
"It was just because I don't like her." Roman told himself.
But this feeling of being out of place only grew as his fellow classmates gushed about their boyfriends and girlfriends, crushes and which cartoon character they find cute. Granted, they were in second and third grade, so the terms "boyfriend" and "girlfriend" roughly translated to "they let me borrow their crayon at break once and now we're in love and going to get married." However, this love for love spread like a virus and Romans desire to fit in only grew. So, during a sleepover with his friends, Roman looked upon the TV, at the princess Aurora and decided 'She'd make a good crush.' Before announcing it to the crowd of toddlers, the words immediately sounding wrong as he spoke them, as if he'd spoken them in a foreign language. He decided that night to never speak of his supposed "crush" ever again. Roman liked Aurora with Prince Philip much more, anyway.
Roman was in fifth grade when he was talking to one of his best friends, Valorie. The two of them just laughing and joking when his friends approached.
"Who's your girlfriend, Ro?" one laughed, putting his arm around Roman. And he knew it was a joke. He knew that. But it still felt like the arm hadn't wrapped around his shoulders and instead knocked all the air out his lungs in one hard punch. This moment lingered in his mind like a haunting apparition, quickly causing any friendships with girls to become strained. First only talking occasionally while in class or on the yard, to only talking when his guy friends weren't around, to only texting outside of school to nothing at all. Roman mourned these friendships but it had been made clear that boys and girls couldn't just be friends and the idea of people thinking he was dating any of these people made him feel like a caged bird.
Later that year Roman decided, despite his love for love, he didn't want to date. The reason for this being...
"I'm just more focused on my career."
"I just don't see the point in dating right now."
"I've never really liked anyone so what's the point?"
"I just like being more focused on myself."
And any other excuse he could possibly come up with, repeating them as many times as he needed to to believe them. Roman had always been a good actor, after all. But, of coarse, with this supposed decision came "reassurance" from adults, as if they had the ability to see the future.
"You just haven't met the right person, yet."
"You'll change your mind one day, when you get a bit older."
"All kids say that at your age."
"Roman isn't interested in dating YET."
These invalidating promises made Romans blood boil the more he heard them. It was as if he was yelling while trapped in a soundproof box, unable to escape. But, despite what seemingly everyone around him was saying, Roman knew deep down that romance just wasn't for him.
He also remained thankful that this love for love hadn't infected his friendship too much.
That was until seventh grade when what was originally a few cases of a love for love became an epidemic. It seemed that all anyone wanted to know was "do you have a crush on her?" "Did you hear that Lily and Reese are going out?" "Do you find her attractive?" This soon made its way over to his friends as they talked about how hot the girls were and teased each other relentlessly about who they liked. Roman once again felt like an outsider in his friend group. His friends conversations about their girlfriends may as well have been spoken in Latin.
Then the day came when his twin brother, Remus, came out as gay and started dating a guy named Janus. It then occurred to Roman.
"Maybe the reason I haven't been feeling anything for all these girls was because they were girls! Maybe I like boys instead!" Roman had never been a very logical person but this definitely seemed to make more sense. If he didn't like women then that surely must mean that he liked men instead, right? Because otherwise...otherwise Roman didn't know what that meant.
So Roman tried. Really God damn tried to find boys cute, to fantasize about dating them, to relate to gay experiences. But all he was met with was the same foreign and hollow feeling he'd felt when he lied about having a crush back in 2nd grade. Roman quickly began feeling his love for the concept of love diminish.
So when Roman entered grade 9, he decided to put anything to do with his romantic feelings (or lack there of) in a little box in the back of his mind to deal with later. Instead putting his passion and good acting skills to use by joining his schools drama department. The moment he stepped foot on stage, he felt himself come alive. The crowd, the praise, the creativity, it was addicting.
And it was only made better with the more friends he made. There was one person who he grew partially close to. Patton Heart. The two quickly became best friends, often hanging out outside of rehearsals and texting non stop. And, for the first time in what seemed like years, Roman was happy and comfortable.
That was until 10th grade. Roman way lying on his bed watching Netflix on his phone when a message from Patton came through. Roman clicked on the message and was caught massively off guard as he read it.
Patton: hey, Roman. So I've been thinking a lot lately. In particular about us and about you. And over the past few months I've started to realize that I have a really big crush on you. You're really handsome, funny and talented and I love spending time with you. It's totally ok if you don't like me back, but I figured it's better to be honest.
It should've been it. The moment when one of the main characters confesses their feelings for the love interest and they proclaim they feel the same way. Sparks fly and their hearts beat faster with excitement. It all becomes so clear when they hear that confession in movies and books.
But this wasn't a movie.
Roman felt time stand still as he read the message, his hands shaking so much he didn't think he would be able to respond even if he knew how to answer.
He couldn't breath. Why couldn't he breath?! The edges of his vision went fuzzy as he desperately gasped for air.
"Patton's great." He thought through his suffocating panic. "He's funny and charming and sweet. You should like him. Why don't you like him? What's wrong with you?!" Romans thoughts yelled as he tried desperately to hold back the tears threatening to spill over.
Not sure of what else to do, Roman ran to Remus' room, hoping he'd know how to respond.
Roman knocked on his brothers door and Remus responded with a very annoyed "come in" after a few beats of silence. Remus and Janus were sat on Remus' bed and Roman could tell from their slightly red lips that the two had been making out. But he wasn't in the headspace to even pretend to care that he'd interrupted them right now.
"Ugh, what do you want?" Remus said, clearly too irritated by his brothers presence to notice his distress.
"P-Patton just messaged me s-saying he likes me and I don't know what to say." Roman barely stuttered out, trying desperately not to cry in front of Remus and his boyfriend.
"Aw, cute. Roro finally got a man." Remus joked but Roman was definitely not in the mood for that kind of humor.
"Do you like him back?" Janus asked, calmly, clearly taking more notice of Romans distress.
"Well, I do. But not like that."
"Ok, so just tell him that. It doesn't have to be this whole thing. Why are you getting so upset?" Remus said, looking at Roman as if he was stupid.
Which, to be fair, Roman did feel very stupid right now.
"He's my best friend. I don't want to upset him." Yeah, that was the reason Roman was freaking out. He just didn't want to hurt Patton. That was it.
"Well, just say you don't want a relationship right now or some shit. Besides, he's probably more worried now because you've taken so long to answer." Remus pointed out. Yeah, Roman was never coming to Remus with his problems ever again.
"Yeah...ok." Roman said. Slowly, he walked out the room, noticing Janus looking at him curiously but deciding not to focus on it.
Roman: I'm really sorry Patton, but I don't feel the same way. We can still be friends tho. It doesn't have to be awkward between us. Especially because I really like being friends with you.
Patton: Yeah, that's ok. This is kinda what I was expecting to be honest. But yeah, I still wanna stay friends.
A few days later Janus came over again for dinner. Afterwards, Roman went into the living room and sat on the couch, scrolling through Instagram.
To his surprise, Janus followed after him and sat next to him. "So, how are you feeling after a few days ok. Broken his heart yet?" Janus teased.
Roman huffed out a laugh. "Uh, yeah, we agreed to just stay friends. Which I'm happy about but it's also really weird. I honestly don't know where we go from here which sucks because I really like Patton. Just not like...that." Janus nodded in understanding.
"You must care about him a lot if you had a panic attack just because you didn't want to hurt his feelings." Janus said. Roman just shrugged in response. "So, does that mean you like someone else?" Janus asked.
"No...I. I don't know. I've...I've never really liked anyone. I don't think I ever will. And people say I'll change my mind but...it isn't like I've made a choice. I've felt like this my whole life and everyone around me has had a crush on someone by now. I just... don't think I was built for romance. Which I know probably sounds stupid but that's just how I feel." He said, so honest it almost hurt.
Janus nodded slowly, taking in what Roman was saying. "It doesn't sound stupid." He said before pausing, as if considering his next choice of words. "Roman...have you ever heard of the term aromantic?" He asked.
"No." Roman answered, looking at Janus curiously.
"It basically means someone who experiences little to no romantic attraction. So they don't get crushes and stuff like that." He explained.
Roman felt his heart leap and for once it wasn't because of a fight or flight reflex. "Wait, that's a thing?" He asked in disbelief.
"Yeah, a surprising number of people identify with it. I don't want to assume anything but I thought I might mention it just from what you've told me and what Remus has said in the past. Plus that panic on your face yesterday reminded me a bit of when I tried to force myself into romantic situations with girls." Janus smirked to himself.
That night Roman researched more on aromanticism than he did for his science test. The more he searched, the more it just made sense. Of coarse, he still had a long way to go towards self acceptance. Roman could feel himself already starting to mourn the idea that this was a choice he'd made ages ago and he was going to feel romantic love one day. It was an odd feeling, realizing that even though he knew deep down it wasn't a decision and he'd always hated when people made those comments, a part of him took comfort in adults promising that he'd change his mind one day. He was also horrified to realize that he didn't know what his future was supposed to look like now without romance. After all, media seemed to show single middle aged adults exclusively as depressed and lonely. But as he scoured through wiki articles to tumblr pages to memes, he knew this was a good start to unlearning any nonsense society had been shoving down his throat.
The more Roman learned and the more people he talked to online about it, the more he started to feel his love for love increase. But instead of it being centered on a prince and princess in a movie, two in love warriors keeping each other alive in a book or a cheesy love song on the radio, it was a different type of love Roman was finally starting to feel the more he accepted himself.
Self love.

SIMM!MASTER x READER: “Do you believe in love?”
prompt #11 — requested
masterlist
pairing: simm!master x reader
description: visiting a famed romantic hotspot (to cause trouble, obviously) with the master leads to you pondering one major question: does he even believe in love?
warnings: angst, as ever with me writing the master !
words: 1,535
You leaned forward to rest your palms on your knees and catch your breath again as the Master, a few paces ahead of you, turned to laugh at your exasperated expression.
“Would you stop laughing at me?” you grumbled, standing up again and following him back into his TARDIS with a scowl on your face, “If you weren’t so intent on pissing off every species in the universe, I wouldn’t have to run so much and end up so bloody tired!”
He smirked, pausing at the TARDIS doors while you caught up to him, “You should be used to it now then, love.”
You followed him inside, your expression still irritated as you folded your arms over your chest dramatically.There he goes again, you thought with a sigh, calling you love whilst mocking you just as he always did. 
It bothered you more today than usual, and you knew exactly why.
You’d been visiting the Four Moons of Tirus, famously frequented by couples for romantic getaways and often either weddings or honeymoons. Of course, travelling with the Master you knew that this hadn’t been a romance-fuelled trip -- instead, he wanted to cause chaos as ever and so dragged you along with him. 
At first it had been fun, stealing food from buffet tables and skipping through fancy venues. But he’d torn you from a conversation with a Commander of a fleet attending a wedding on one of the Four Moons, and from then on the day had been miserable.
You’d hoped he was jealous -- you couldn’t deny Commander Fluxx II’s flirtation towards you -- but his behaviour crumpled your hopes swiftly.
Watching him flirt with taken women of every species weighed heavy on your chest for multiple reasons: One, you were admittedly jealous. Your feelings for the Master were becoming increasingly potent, and his teasing was becoming increasingly infuriating. And two, it felt shit to see him so blatantly disregard the notion of love and relationships.
Above all else, though, you were devastated by his reaction to being told you made a cute couple. Once he’d pulled you away from the commander, an elderly alien woman had winked and complimented you both, telling you that you were perfectly suited to eachother. 
He’d scoffed, told the creature that you were ‘merely a companion, more like his pet’ and stormed away as though he’d never heard such a disgusting accusation in all of his existence.
You’d hoped maybe there’d been some small romantic undercurrent to him bringing you to the Four Moons, perhaps even if very subtle. Maybe he’d kiss you under the nightly Tirusian aurora, or buy you a bouquet of their native flowers. 
But of course, he was just here to wreak havoc with you at his command.
You’d finally composed yourself now, no more jagged breaths as you stood at his side, hand on your hips, “Don’t you get bored of just messing with people’s feelings, Master?”
You were directly referring to his previous actions, but your words were laced with dismay at his disregard for your evident feelings, too. 
“Whatever do you mean, Y/N?” he smirked, bringing his hand to his face in a falsely inquisitive manner.
“Well, that woman was literally stood next to her husband and you were blatantly disrespectful and embarrassingly flirtatious... the look on his face was terrifying, you’re lucky we got away or he’d have torn you to shreds. Did you see his claws?” you rambled, shuddering at the thought of the alien who’d chased you all the way back to the TARDIS.
“He would never have gotten to us, Y/N.” the Master too crossed his arms now, brows furrowed, “I don’t see what’s gotten you so riled up.” You could see in his face that he was lying. He knew. Of course he knew.
You grunted, shaking your head, “You spend all of your time treating people like they’re beneath you, like they’re expendable. You tease people, you flirt with people. Hell, you flirt with me. Then you go and act like I’m nothing but shit on the bottom of your shoes. You’re pathetic, frankly. Shameless, and pathetic.”
“Ah, so that’s what it’s about, us?”
You scoffed, “There isn’t an us, Master. Don’t you dare stand there so smug and talk like you even care about me. This isn’t about that. It’s about the fact that you’re selfish and self-important and you act like nothing matters to you. It’s ridiculous!”
Your chest was heaving as you spat these words at him, fury coursing through your every vein. You knew that it was obvious why you were predominantly angry, and that maybe you needed to calm down, but you were furious and upset and heartbroken all at once and this tornado of emotion couldn’t be stopped easily.
The room fell silent, the Master’s face no longer painted with a smirk but instead simply blank. You didn’t know what more to say for a moment, gathering your thoughts and trying to steady your erratic breathing.
You remained in silence for a good few minutes, both deep in thought and refusing to make eye contact with each other. 
You let out a deep breath then, leaning forwards and resting your chin in your palm, “Do you believe in love?” you whispered, still avoiding his gaze and speaking so quietly he wasn’t sure he even heard you right.
He swallowed thickly, straightening his stance and relaxing his arms.
“I didn’t.”
“What?”
“I didn’t before. Believe in love, that is.”
“Before what?”
“You, Y/N.”
Your face twisted in confusion, eyes narrowing as they snapped up to meet his all of a sudden. 
How on earth could he stand there and say that, especially seeming so serious, after all that had just happened? Did he really respect you so little that he believed providing you with such lies would give you enough false hope to stop being so angry with him?
“Please don’t say things like that. It’s not fair, and you know it isn’t.” you frowned, shaking your head again and biting your lip.
“I know it’s hard to believe, Y/N, but it’s true,” he shrugged, stepping towards you, “And that was why I brought you to the Four Moons of Tirus. At least initially.”
You cocked your head to the side, “Why were you acting like such an arsehole then?”
He raised his hand to rub over your upper arm for just a moment before returning it to his side, “Because when that disgusting Commander was shamelessly all over you I questioned the point of being in love, anyway.”
You were confused, and so said nothing, allowing him to continue.
“You called me pathetic, but you didn’t see his wife watch him touch you and run off crying,” he sighed, “So many species disregard love even when they claim to feel it. Why bother? I’ve spent long enough on my own, I needn’t fool myself into relying on someone when there’s every risk of ending up alone again anyway.”
You scoffed even more abruptly now, baffled by his words.
“So you got jealous and decided to be petty and hurt me anyway?” you questioned, venom dripping in your tone, “I’ve been waiting for some inkling that you cared about me, and now you finally tell me you love me and still somehow manage to invalidate that and make me feel worthless! I can’t keep playing your games, Master. I’m tired.”
He took your hands in his delicately, “I’ve spent so long alone, Y/N, you have to understand that. I never meant to fall in love with you, and a relationship with me would be about as dysfunctional as you could get. I don’t want to risk hurting you, or getting hurt myself.”
“Flirting with everyone under the sun and making me feel like I don’t matter won’t make feelings go away, Master,” you clenched your fingers around his, somewhat in an effort to reassure him whilst you were being honest, “You’re stuck with me, and I hate to break it to you but love doesn’t just dissipate overnight, even if you claim it’s ‘pointless’ anyway.”
“I’m sorry Y/N. And I’m sorry for ruining what could’ve been a chance to make things up to you.” he pouted, and you felt your stomach swarm with butterflies.
“Look, I’m not going to tell you I forgive you, but I’ll give you the chance to prove that this is more than just some twisted game of yours, because I’m that stupid human whose gone and fallen in love with you, eh,” you half-joked, bringing your entwined hands up to kiss the back of his, “I overheard one of the Commander’s fleet talking about the Perpetual Sunsets of Parboon. It’s like... always sunset and sounds incredible. Take me there?”
He nodded, kissing your temple and swiveling towards the TARDIS console with a newly returned smile. Your heart warmed; It wasn’t his usual arrogant smirk now, but instead a smile of genuine happiness.
“Parboon it is,” he grinned, pulling you closer to his side, “But if any silly alien soldiers make a pass at you again, I won’t be so kind to them this time.”
“Sure, spaceman,” you rolled your eyes teasingly, “Whatever you say.”

Skids X Reader - For the Dancing and the Dreaming (COMMISSION)
A/N - A commission for @officialpolnareff​ who I would like to thank for their patronage. You are a very cool person, thank you very much and I hope this is too your liking.
Description – Skids and you are in an established relationship. After a long meeting with Ultra Magnus, you come home tired to your favourite film, Sleeping Beauty. Halfway through the film, you are struck with the urge to waltz to the music. Skids comes to visit and is entranced with your dancing, completely awestruck that somehow, he managed to earn your affections. 
Warnings – None.
Rating – T
Word Count – 1066
Tumblr media
You stretched and yawned, glad to finally be back at your hab-suite after a day spent in another dull meeting with Ultra Magnus, distracting you from your real job as the ship’s liaison to Earth. Why he felt you had to review the rules and regulations regarding human safety every three months was beyond you; it was nothing but a waste of time. Besides that, this meeting was longer than the rest usually were because now you were dating Skids; Ultra Magnus had added another twenty-nine pages of rules about human courtship with Cybertronians and you actually thought that list might have taken five years off your life. It was no use arguing that the Cybertronians only had to attend yearly meetings; Ultra Magnus had prepared a counter-argument about human fragility. Damn your organic body.
You sighed upon entering your room and turning on the TV. What you needed more than anything was a nice relaxing film that didn’t require much thinking. You couldn’t count the amount of times you had seen Sleeping Beauty, but it was enough for you to know all the words. While the film played in the background, comforting you with its familiarity, you decided that you would clean your room and maybe sweep up a bit. The sweeping used to be taken care of by Roombas, but after you had put two of them in a make-shift arena with balloons and knives attached to them, Ultra Magnus declared that you couldn’t have them back until you appreciated them for their intended function; killjoy.
You didn’t much mind losing the Roombas; it had been worth it. However, you did grow quickly bored upon sweeping the floor. You turned your eyes to the screen upon reaching your favourite scene, where Aurora was dancing in the woods surrounded by the woodland creatures. You smiled fondly at the sound of the music, and as Aurora waltzed with the owl and rabbits, you waltzed with your broom.
While you danced, lost in a world of your own, enjoying the simple pleasure of the music, you didn’t notice the hab-suite door open. Skids had come to visit you, having finished his own work early. He was hoping to lure you out on a romantic evening in his holo-form, which he had tailored especially for you, knowing the type of man you liked. He had short-cropped dark hair, piercing blue eyes, and a body that suited leather jackets and black jeans.
Instead of interrupting however, Skids leaned against the door-frame, watching you dance, completely enchanted by you. He had no idea you were into the whole romantic princess deal; his favourite part of your new-found relationship was finding out all these new little details about you and piecing them together like he was trying to solve a puzzle. 
His eyes flicked up to the screen where Price Phillip was watching Princess Aurora in awe. As the prince in the film swept Aurora off her feet, Skids too decided to make his own presence known, removing the broom from your grip as he pulled you into his arms, scaring you half to death in the process.
“Princess,” He smiled, bringing your hand to his lips. 
“Skids,” You blushed breathlessly. 
“I didn’t know you could dance.”
“I didn’t know you were a peeping Tom,” You retorted playfully.
“Only when my girlfriend is doing something cute,” He chuckled, caressing your cheek. “So?” He asked.
“So what?”
“May I have this dance, milady?”
He remotely hacked the film you were watching, removing the dialogue so it only played the music. Having studied waltzes among his research of famous human dances, Skids bowed to you, making you laugh. You curtsied in return and offered him your hand, the other going to his shoulder. Skids put his free hand over the small of your back, making your heart beat faster; this sort of thing never happened on Earth, it seemed that with Skids at least, chivalry wasn’t dead.
Without Skids’ support you would have quickly fallen behind in your amateur waltz, but his expertise led you into a world of sophistication and elegance. He knew exactly how to manipulate your movements as he spread your arms apart into a diamond shape, dipped you, and pulled you into his arms only to spin you out once again.
“Where did you learn to dance so well?” You asked, completely beguiled by his suave movements.
“I told you before,” He whispered in your ear upon embracing you once again.
“All skills are worth pursuing, especially if one can use them to woo a beautiful maiden such as yourself.”
You felt your heart race and your knees buckle as Skids drew you closer than he had before, his arms wrapping around your stomach, and his artificial breath warming your neck.
“Careful, you don’t want to fall now,” He teased.  “But if you do, at least I’ll get to catch you.”
You shivered in anticipation and Skids found his eyes tracing the curve of your neck. He slowly lowered his head till he was kissing your shoulder, nibbling lightly, and slowly making his way up to your jaw. He wanted to show that he was utterly devoted to you, that you had rescued him just as much as he rescued you on the night that you first began dating. The way how was simple, and Skids didn’t mind being open with his feelings, even if he wasn’t sure that you were ready to return them. 
He released your waist, turning you around to face him, then going down on one knee, he took your hand. “(Y/N),” He murmured your name reverently. “I love you.”
Shocked at the sudden omission and the fact that it had come after the two of you had only been dating for a couple of weeks, you fell clumsily to your knees. Skids smiled lopsidedly, grabbing your shoulders to support you.
“Don’t worry,” He said comfortingly, “You don’t have to say it back. Wait until you’re ready. I just wanted you to know-”
You threw your arms around Skids’ neck, crushing your lips against his, invading his mouth with your tongue and inviting him to do the same. He tasted of those three delectably sweet words that he had spoken. He loved you and nothing could ever sound, feel, or taste so good as that.
When you parted, you whispered breathlessly, “I love you too.”

Tumblr media
Pairing: EthanXMc (Samantha Valentine)
Warnings: fluff and angst 💕
Parts: 1 of 3
Description of part 1:
This takes place slight after the first book before Ethan leaves for two months. They share a sweet moment as Ethan makes plans to leave...
***General POV***
Samantha had been over once or twice to Ethans. They talk and laugh they cook and He helps her when she has difficult cases... They revise and test each other on different medical cases. They were happy for a short time. They got to be happy.
She sat on the couch in her roommates place she sat with an oversized grey cross knitted jumper with her sliver locket around her neck. Her hair open which fell down past her shoulders. She sat reading a book with Sienna who also was reading the same book. They would love to talk hours about the books they read together and talk about it while baking it was one of Samantha’s favourite things to do.
***Samantha’s POV***
Rain pours as I sit on the couch Elijah playing video games with Bryce and Raf who were over. I close the reading book and put it on the table. Ethan the only thing that comes to my mind.
“Samantha...” Bryce calls my name breaking my trance of Ethan. Aurora came over sitting taking to Jackie and Kyra and Sienna.
“Yeah?” He puts the controller down.
“You seem distracted...are you ok?” She nods yes as he smiles at her picking the controller up again.
Her phone lit up and a message from Ethan
Want to come over to mines? Jenner really misses you...and the place seems quieter without you.
I smile at the message which Sienna and Kyra catch. They give each other a knowing look as Kyra coughs and gives Elijah a knowing look as he smirks in my direction as he exclaimed,
“No!” His face drops as he loses at the game Raf standing up and smiled.
“Yes!” I smile as I got up take the book and hug it to my chest.
“My aunt came back from LA from the doctors convention Amelia is over there I’m going to head there before aunt Mina gets busy with work again.”
“Ok do you want one of us to drop you off?” Sienna asks.
“No it’s ok.”
“I’ve had enough of video games...” Raf gets up as Jackie moves over to Elijah and Bryce.
“Move over Meathead I’m going to destroy you two!”
“We’ll see about that.” Elijah says as they laugh and play.
Should I of used my aunt and cousin sister as a lie? No. Would I do it again? Yes. It’s an easy way out.
I change my jumper into an oversized blush jumper and my jeans with my trainers. I end up at Ethans he opens the door.
“Jesus you really got drenched out there huh?” He lets me in taking in my dishevelled look.
***Ethans POV***
I let her in watch her shiver as I take in her damp hair and her drenched jumper with the droplets of rain which sat on her face like beads of clear crystal.
“You should change and take a shower or you’ll get sick.”
“I don’t have any of my clothes here.”
“Don’t worry you can borrow one of my jumpers...but rookie I’m going to want it back.” She smiles knowing that she has a habit of stealing my clothes.
***Samantha’s POV***
I take a shower as Ethan put my clothes in the dryer. I see the shirt Ethan left on his bed for me.
I walk out buttoning up the shirt I feel him looking at me. I walk next to him as he pulls me close to him his blue eyes which pierced though me. A barking breaks us from our trance as we step apart.
“Jenner!” I crouch down and played with the dog as Ethan smiles watching us play.
“I swear that dog loves you more that he does me.” I turn to face him
“That’s because I smile and don’t look like a grumpy old man all the time...”
“Hey!” He pulls me closer as I look at him before escaping and run. He follows me as I go to his room. Coming closer he holds my wrist when I move away. He teasingly kisses me.
“Ethan...” I move to the window of his room as he comes behind me his hand intertwined with mine as he held me. He turned me around to face him as pinned my wrist to the wall.
“Shh... don’t say anything.” His voice low and calm as he leans closer and we kiss.
———
***Ethans POV***
“Ethan?” She broke the silence. She laid in the bed her head against my chest.
“Yeah?”
“I know you’re worried...don’t worry.” She calmed down my tension.
***Samanthas POV***
I had a lot on my mind. Being with Ethan made it better it filled the hollowed place in me. Jake... I missed him so much. He’s my brother and I think I now understand he’s dead. One of the most hardest things. I wanted to get out all the pent up emotions but ...I couldn’t.
We spent the night holding each other.
***Ethans POV***
“Thanks Ethan...” we kiss as she put on her shoes with her dried clothes on.
“Are you sure you don’t want me to I drop you off?” She smiles.
“I’m sure! And if my roommates see you drop me off they’re going to get suspicious plus Si and Elijah are already suspicious of me.”
“Ok, ok but call me when you reach home ok, night.” She kisses me again as we part ways.
“Night Ethan.”
Night rolls around as my mind races. I couldn’t stay here with Samantha and her job. I couldn’t stay here and when I kissed her. I don’t know what to do. I couldn’t stay here and even when I-
***Samanthas POV***
I messaged him as he replies back. I go to sleep I don’t know what will happen when we get back to work. This might just end so I want to make the most of it...
P.s ok! This is part one there is another two parts to come I’ll post it soon I don’t know when. But do read it and comment what u think and re-blog I don’t mind 💕💕.

Summary: A lonely fairy in the woods catches sight of an intriguing visitor who seems to love his forest as much as he does. He invites her in, but will she decide to stay?

If you ever meet a fairy, do not accept their food or drink, it is how they draw you into their world... 
Tumblr media
She was here, Felix grinned to himself. He had watched her passing near his fairy circle for months, admiring her beauty and the way she always seemed to be so happy when she walked through the forest. He loved the wonder that came into her eyes when she spotted a pretty flower or a cute little bird flitting by.
“Please come in,” he said hopefully. “I promise not to keep you forever if you just come, just for a little while.” He just had to do something to catch her attention, to draw her inside. Felix put his hand on the ground near the edge of his circle letting out small tendrils of magic through his fingertips. The glowing vines of magic crawled over the forest floor bringing forth bursts of spring flowers where they touched.
The movement and bright colors caught her attention in the corner of her eye and she turned to see what was there. A curling carpet of spring blooms covered a short distance up a little incline to a ring of mushrooms growing in the forest floor. She would have sworn it wasn’t there a moment ago.
“How are these growing now?” She asked quietly, directing the question at no one in particular. “Lily of the Valley, crocus, and Siberian squill...you all bloom in spring. How are you here?”
Careful not to step on the flowers, she made her way up the incline to see what was there, what could make those flowers bloom. Stepping into the circle of light brown mushrooms, she turned in a little circle to take in the view of the forest from that point. Somehow it looked brighter, more vivid from that place where she stood. A slight rustling drew her attention to a tree stump a few meters behind her.
“Who are you?” She asked the boy who seemed to be suddenly sitting there, cross legged, his chin resting on the palms of his hands as he looked at her.
“I’m Felix,” he replied, standing up. “Welcome to my forest.”
“Your…” her voice drifted off. “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to intrude. I didn’t think this was private property.”
“No, please, don’t apologize,” he assured her, standing up and moving to join her. “I don’t mind having you here. It’s nice to see someone appreciate my forest.”
“Have...have you been watching me?” She asked, taking a half step back.
“A little,” he admitted shyly, smiling up at her through his lashes. “Your sketches of the birds were so pretty. Most people don’t pay enough attention to capture them so well.”
“Thank you, I suppose,” she replied. He made her feel funny. It was some sensation she couldn’t place when she looked at him. He was handsome and young looking, with sparkling eyes and a dusting of freckles over his nose and cheeks. A mischief danced in his eyes when he looked at her with an adoring intensity. It should have made her uncomfortable, after all, he was a stranger she knew nothing about. Not to mention the strange way he was dressed. Why was he here by himself? How had he seen her and her sketches in the forest without her noticing?
“Did you like my flowers?” He asked, drawing closer.
“How did you get them to bloom so late in the year?” She asked, turning to look at the carpet of flowers again.
“Oh that’s easy,” he explained, taking her hand and pulling her along to an open part of the forest floor. “Like this,” he knelt down and placed his palm on the ground and let out a small burst of his powers. Around his hand golden ripples pushed out, leaving blooms that pushed up through the leaf litter in their wake. Her eyes went wide and she moved down to her knees to get closer to the sudden burst of flowers.
“Edelweiss,” she breathed quietly. “What are you?”
“I’m a fairy,” he answered, as if it should be obvious. “I live in the forest, care for the plants and the creatures here. Would you like to see my home?”
“Yes,” she said before she could think better of it. It seemed likely this was a dream, or maybe that she had lost her mind, and if that was the case where was the harm in going to see it? Taking her by the hand he led her to an old thick oak that grew near the edge of a small stream. It looked like an ordinary old tree until he put his hand on it and the front of the tree melted into an old door that opened inward. It didn’t look possible, the door seeming to be as large as one side of the tree, but he stepped inside, drawing her in behind him.
“Welcome,” he said as he closed the door behind her. She couldn’t respond as she tried to take in where she was. Through the door was a little world that seemed to defy definition as either a room or a forest. Somehow it was both and neither at the same time. The walls and ceiling were a dome of warm golden wood, shiny and smooth from years of being polished and cared for with gentle hands. Windows looked out through the notches left by knots that had been cleared and set with rippling glazing that sparkled in the low light. Shelf-like mushrooms grew in areas along the walls holding everything from little figures, to cups and plates. Off to one side sat a person sized nest on a little nook that came out from the wall. The mess of blankets that covered it, as well as the cushy looking pillows buried off to one side, looked like they were made of the softest silk in shades of green and brown. On the opposite side sat a table made from the top of a stump that extended from the wall, floating just the right height above the floor. Two small stumps sat, one on each side, providing seats for anyone who wanted to sit for some tea or food, if the mood struck. Spheres dangled here and there, bringing a glowing warm light to the space. It smelled fresh and woody, like rosemary and pine with just a hint of sandalwood, completing the sense of fantasy about the place.
“Wow,” was all she managed to say after taking it all in for a moment or two.
“Do you like it?” Felix asked, drawing up beside her and taking one of her hands in his. “I don’t really get visitors very often.”
“It’s wonderful,” she assured him, turning to look at him and finding his face far closer than she thought it was. A blush rose onto her cheeks and he gave her a warm grin as he took notice.
“I’m so glad you found my forest,” he sighed, taking a hand and brushing his fingers over her cheek. “Would you mind if I kissed you?”
“No,” she said, her gaze dropping down to his perfectly shaped pink lips. It was just a dream after all, she told herself. If it was a dream, there was no harm. It couldn’t be real. Fairies didn’t exist, nothing could make flowers spring from nowhere, houses couldn’t appear inside trees.
Felix leaned in, brushing his lips against hers as gently as if he were kissing the fluff of a dandelion. His lips tasted like sweet clover and summer strawberries. His delicate hands held her face, tilting it just right so he could nuzzle his lips closer to hers. He filled her senses, with the sweet flavor of his lips and the gentle touch of his hands as they wandered from her face down to her shoulders and arms.
She was as wonderful as he had imagined, soft and giving under his touch. She was so alive and so warm in a way he had missed for so long. Humans usually held little attraction for him. They were short lived, selfish, and obsessed with their world of concrete and steel, missing the wonder and beauty of the nature so close to them. But she was sweet like a summer dawn and took joy in all the little details of the world around her. In her art she had captured the way the chickadee spread its wings as it turned in flight, the gloss of the leaves after the rain, and the glint of the spiderwebs in dawn mist.
“Let me touch you,” he asked quietly against the corner of her mouth.
“You already are,” she pointed out with a breathy laugh, her hands coming to rest on his waist.
“I meant like this,” he chuckled as his hand slipped over her clothed breast.
“Ah, right,” her cheeks went pinker as she pulled his hips closer to hers. 
“Is this alright?” Felix slid a hand up under her sweater, still staying over the soft cotton of her t-shirt. She nodded, getting a closer look at his face as he explored her gently. Near the corners of his eyes he had little marks that looked like tiny silver crescent moons, glowing lightly from within. Over the bridge of his nose and cheeks were freckles of bronze and gold along with those that looked like regular ones. His eyes were brown like the fertile soil of the forest, but had flecks of red and gold, like leaves in fall.
He brought his lips back to hers, guiding her backwards until the back of her knees hit the edge of the nest like bed. She let herself sink backwards into the softness of the bed and its blankets as he moved to lie beside her. Felix coaxed her into the center of the bed and curled up along her side.
“You’re so beautiful,” he told her, brushing a little hair out of her face.
“I…thank you,” she said shyly. Reaching up, she pulled his face back down to hers, capturing his lips. She kissed him with passion and desperation. He was beautiful, he was delicious, and he made her feel like she was coming alive after a long winter.
He slipped her sweater off and tossed it to the floor. He kissed his way over her cheek and down her neck as he snuck his hand under her shirt to touch the skin of her stomach for the first time. He sent out tendrils of magic over her skin, making her gasp at the feel.
“What did you do?” She panted.
“Just a little magic,” he explained timidly. “Did you like it?”
“Yes,” she nodded, desperate for him to do it again.
“Here,” he helped her pull off her shirt and her pants, leaving her only in her bra and underwear in the soft nest of the bed. He stretched out beside her, running his knuckles over her stomach lightly.
“What about you?” She asked, running her hand over the clothing that still covered him. “Can I see you?”
“Oh, that’s easy,” he gave a musical laugh and his clothes melted away.
“Easy indeed,” she gave a nervous giggle as she looked down the line of his naked body. “That shouldn’t be possible.” She said softly, running her fingers along his shoulder, touching the soft skin there.  His body was long and lean, muscular but not the sort one got from strength training, it was the body of a runner, a swimmer, a dancer. He was beautiful as he smiled down at her. Splaying a hand over her stomach he sent out a small ripple of magic over her skin and she saw little golden waves move across her skin, bringing pleasure with them. She let out a ragged breath and gripped his bicep to steady herself. 
“Keep going,” she whispered, looking into his eyes. Felix leaned down and put his lips to hers and let a trickle of his magic into her through them. It amplified the cozy warmth of his lips and the taste of strawberries that washed through her. She urged him to deepen the kiss and helped him shift until he lay half on top of her as he did. When she touched him, she felt like she couldn’t get enough, couldn’t get close enough. He ran his fingers through her hair, holding her head as he explored her mouth.
A shiver went through her as his tongue tangled with hers and he slid a knee between her thighs. Her hands pressed against his back, feeling his muscles move under his soft skin. Somehow he managed to feel warm and hard and soft all at once under her touch. His magic intoxicated her, leaving her mind slowed and making the world have a pull and drag like water around her. She wanted more.
“Can we…,” she fidgeted, squeezing her thighs around his and hoping that would get her desire across.
“Are you sure you want to?” He ran a hand down her side to her waist. “I can make you feel good even if we don’t go all the way.” 
“But I want to,” she nodded emphatically. If this was a dream she wanted to have this moment. If it wasn’t a dream, she wanted to feel like this, take as much of this moment with her for as long as she could remember it. “Please touch me.”
“Of course,” he giggled and pressed a kiss to her forehead. “I’ll touch you as much as you desire.” His fingers played at the edge of her bra strap and he moved it slowly off her shoulder. He kissed along where it had been as his hand went to cup the soft mound of her breast. Everywhere his skin touched hers, golden sparkles followed behind.
Felix loved watching her reaction, the way goosebumps prickled along her skin when he touched her. The way his magic could flow and tickle along her skin was intriguing. Even with other fairies it hadn’t been like this. Sometimes their powers clashed, sometimes it fizzled, something that was always a great disappointment when you were otherwise compatible. But even with the best of experiences he had had before, they didn’t compare to how it felt to share it with her.
He reached behind her and undid the contraption that was her bra, discarding it off the side of the bed with a toss. Running the tips of two fingers over her from the notch in her collarbone down between her breasts and to the dip of her belly button. Her back arched and her muscles twitched under his touch. She looked so pretty like this.
“Can I take these off too?” He asked as he fingered the waistband of her panties. She nodded, lifting her hips to help him do it. Felix slid them down her hips and thighs, tossing them vaguely in the direction her bra had gone. With her now as naked as he was, he straddled her legs, sitting on his heels near her knees.
“If I said you were the prettiest thing in my forest would you believe me?” He asked, letting his eyes rake over her beneath him.
“No,” she admitted, moving her hands to cover herself.
“No, little one,” he leaned forward and entwined his fingers with hers and brought them to his lips. “Don’t hide. You are so beautiful to my eyes.”
“You’re too pretty to be believed,” she shook her head, pulling at him to ask him to lie down with her. He obliged and covered her body with his. A tingle went through him as so much of their bodies came into contact and he let out a gasp, as did she.
“Does it always feel this good for a fairy?” She asked as she moved her legs to cradle his hips.
“No, my magic seems to like you as much as I do,” He smiled. She smiled back and brushed his lavender bangs off his forehead. His lips returned to hers, giving them ravenous kisses as his hunger filled his skin. He moved his lips over her cheek and down her throat, making a slow sojourn down her body. He sucked and licked along her collarbone, enjoying the thin and sensitive skin there. Next he moved to her breast, sucking one nipple into his mouth as his fingers pinched the other lightly.
“Felix,” she gasped, her hands gripping his hair lightly. “You feel like heaven.”
“My love, you are heaven,” he replied, kissing along the underside of her breast and down her ribs. Eventually he found himself stretched out between her thighs, eager to explore her there. He placed little kisses on the inside of her thigh, enjoying the sparks he left in his wake. She was endlessly entertaining to touch and watch and enjoy for him.
He ran his tongue up her length tasting the moisture that had gathered there. She was sweet and salty to his taste buds, the perfect mix of intoxicating flavors. Her back arched under his touch and he spread her thighs wider. He watched her as he licked and sucked at her, loving how she reacted to him. She looked beautiful squirming under his ministrations. 
Warm sensations enveloped her as her pleasure increased. It built inside her like a slowly lapping tide, curling against the inside of her body. Her hands reached for his as she could feel it rising and threatening to drown her with desire. He held her, a touch stone in a storm as she came apart underneath him. Moving up to lie beside her again, he admired her expression and how much she looked like she belonged here like this.
“I want to keep you,” he sighed, tracing the line of her features with his eyes. “But I can’t make that choice for you.”
“What if I decide to stay?” She asked, ready to say she would already.
“Don’t decide now,” he shook his head gently, cocooning them both in the soft blankets as he moved on top of her. “For now, just be with me.” He kissed her and wrapped her arms around his neck. “Let’s just have this now.”
She nodded and said nothing else as he slid himself inside her, burying his face in the crook of her neck, taking in the scent of her. It was as perfect a moment as he had ever had, sharing the warmth of their bodies, a mingling of their souls. They made love until they were both exhausted, falling into a contented slumber in the secret of his tree.
Tumblr media
Hours later when they awoke, Felix helped her dress and walked with her to the edge of his circle. He wanted to keep her, to share the joys of his forest with her and perhaps he still would, but he would not do it by trickery. He could, and many of his kind did, but he loved the kindness of her soul too much to win it through deceit.
“Here,” he took one of her hands in his, pressing it between his two and sending a bit of magic through it. “Take some time to think, but if you choose to return, this will let you find me again.” When he drew his hand back, there was a mark on her palm that looked like a faint gray crescent moon. “If you choose to come back to me, I will share all I have with you; my forest, my magic, my heart. But if you come there is no going back, if you become part of my world you cannot go back to what you were, so think carefully on this choice. I would understand if you chose not to come back.”
“I don’t want to go,” She sighed. “If I go, I’m afraid this will all have been a dream. Or if it isn’t, what if I forget?”
“You won’t forget,” Felix promised, pointing to the mark on her hand. “This will stay on you, at least for a little while and I promise I’m not a dream.”
“Can I come back tomorrow?” She asked hopefully.
“Perhaps wait a little longer,” he laughed, cupping her cheek. “Come back in a week, find me then. Be careful going home, it's starting to get dark.” She nodded, stepping out of the circle of mushrooms to suddenly find herself alone in a forest that felt different than it had just a few moments before. She scurried down the path that led back home, leaving a piece of herself behind.
Tumblr media
It had been a week and waiting so long had been a daily fight. The face of Felix haunted her dreams and her waking hours. She had spent much of the first few days sketching it in the hopes that it would give her some peace; exorcise it from her mind. But somehow she couldn’t capture just the right sparkle in his gaze, or the glint of his freckles in the glow of the light. She spent pages and pages sketching it, painting it, but could not get the memories on the paper. The results were beautiful, some of the best she had ever done of a person, her friends assured her, but she knew it wasn’t right.
At night she lay in bed, touching the mark he had left on her, willing him to hear her thoughts so that he would remember her too. What if he forgets me? She wondered to herself. What if he doesn’t want me back? I never should have gone. She sighed and turned over in her bed, struggling for sleep to take her.
Just three more days…
Just two now…
Tomorrow!
In the morning she had sat at her desk, penning a few notes to her friends and family in the hopes that it would at least make them worry less. She laid the envelopes on her bed, under the edge of her pillow, partially hiding them from sight. If she couldn’t find him again she would have time to destroy them before anyone would take note of them or even that she had been gone. She took with her a few photos, the necklace she had inherited from her grandmother, and the little music box her father had given her as a child.
She closed the door and locked it, slipping her keys into her pocket. Her feet walked her back to that place without a thought. She found the woods and the little half hidden trail that had teased her mind for last week. The wind blew through the mostly empty branches of the fall trees as milky light filtered down to the forest floor. The sound of her footsteps grew more faint as the visible path disappeared, becoming moss and the litter of fallen leaves.
She knew she must be getting closer as the forest began to grow quieter around her. She looked for the incline and the circle of mushrooms she knew must be near as she rubbed the mark on the palm of her hand.
“Felix,” she whispered under her breath, the fear she would not find him again welling up in her chest. She closed her eyes and said his name quietly, half a prayer, half a question. When she opened her eyes, before her floated a small orange ball of light that pulsed slowly as it floated just a little ahead of her. Her feet followed it without a second thought, slowly making her way through the last tangle of branches before she finally saw it.
“Felix, are you here?” She asked, carefully getting nearer his fairy circle.
“You came back,” his voice floated out to her a moment before he stepped out in front of her. “I had hoped you would, but…”
“Of course,” she extended her hand with the little crescent to him, taking those last few steps up to the line of mushrooms.
“Come inside, let me give you a little something to eat,” Felix offered with a smile.

Meet the creative team: “Spellstone”
Tumblr media
Are you a collectible card game (CCG) fan? If so, read on, because this week we spoke to the makers of Spellstone, a free-to-play (F2P) casual story-based fantasy card game that features vibrant, colourful, hand-drawn art on hundreds of beautiful cards that you can acquire and use in battle, both against the computer and other players!
TIGR: PABLO and DUSTIN are artists who have worked on Spellstone's art, helping create some of the iconic characters Spellstone fans know and love. We asked them how they came to work on the game, as well as what intrigued them about this project.
Tumblr media
DUSTIN: I was working as a contract artist when I was asked to create some sample cards for a potential CCG, which is something I'd always wanted to do. The samples I submitted eventually led to me getting a contract to create the initial art for Spellstone. After about four months, I was offered a full-time position. I had such a great experience working with the team that I jumped at the opportunity!
PABLO: Prior to starting work on Spellstone, I remember doing an art piece to test my skills. I greatly enjoyed that because I particularly liked this game's art style - which is actually similar to my own! There were still slight differences though, so I've had to adapt a little. Blending my own personal style into an existing one was challenging. But something that intrigued me about Spellstone was the variety of factions in the game. Each and every one opens up a big array of possibilities when it comes to creating a character. I felt my options were unlimited and I loved it!
TIGR: Spellstone features many different cards and characters. We wanted to know who conceptualises all this, and how much creative licence artists get when crafting a character. FERNANDO, currently the main artist for the game, gave us more insight.
Tumblr media
FERNANDO:  That Spellstone has such an immense variety of characters means it's a complete and delightful dish for artists. It's hugely gratifying to find such visual diversity with which to play with. You're completely free to create, as long as you respect the game's universe and visual language.
As for the process, the concept of what a card must look like and how it must be functional in terms of gameplay comes from the guys in the game design department. Very creative people... sorcerers maybe? I don't know. Haha!
From a brief but concise description they give me, I can get a sense of what kind of character and action they want to see in a card. Once I have all the information I need to start sketching, my favourite hour finally begins: creative hour!
If the card description involves an existing type of character, like a goblin, part of the fun has to do with the way you depict that character, situation, action and specific emotion. There's also some freedom to create from scratch if needed - that's exciting and challenging! Sometimes the ideas come from a mix of characters, and that's when the laboratory inside my mind starts working: I press a button and something cool, spooky or funny comes out - whatever the game requires. Other times, new concepts require that I look for approximate references of what's needed, so that serves as the starting point. No matter what, it's always a very enjoyable process. Sometimes we have to make corrections, that's true. But as with everything in life, this is necessary for things to work properly. You may have to redraw stuff, but finally the card is done - it works, it delivers and it entertains!
  TIGR: In Spellstone, cards can be upgraded from a single to a dual to a quad, and we really like that this sometimes tells a "mini story" of of sorts through the artwork. Some are funny (we just love Honeycomb Lobber!), some cute (Bomb Spirit is soooo adorable when he’s angry!), some uplifting (Aurora Shaver ranks among our favourites), and some, um, a bit disturbing, to be honest (Cleaverstorm Hunter, anyone?!)! And some are just sad - we can't help but feel sorry for the poor li'l forest furries that presumably got devoured by Alphamech Stalker! We asked the team how they came up with ideas for all these tiny narratives, and MELINDA, one of the game designers, told us more.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
MELINDA: When I was younger, there were a few creatures in video games that terrified me. One of those I remembered most was Medusa, an air jellyfish from Ecco: The Tides of Time. While traversing through a water pathway in the sky, Medusa would try to pick up Ecco the dolphin and fling him off the path. Tetraspout's concept came from that, and you can even see poor little dolphins getting swept up in its attack!
Tumblr media
  TIGR: We asked the team if there were any cards they particularly liked creating, or found challenging to conceptualise. IVÁN, a colorist who worked briefly on the game, chipped in, as did TONY and RHADA, two of Spellstone's game designers.
DUSTIN: I loved working on the goblin cards! You could get silly with them. Frogs were a lot of fun too - the variety of colours made them interesting. For me, the water cards were challenging but I grew to love working on them.
PABLO: My favourite characters are Goblins! You can play around with them, making them look funny even when the card is telling a dark story, like a massacre. All of the cards were challenging to create!
Tumblr media
IVÁN: I enjoyed working on Hedron The Critical Threat, Zyd The Unhinged, and some awesome Insect cards that have yet to be released (as of the time of this interview). I mostly liked them because of their cool concepts and Fernando's awesome sketches. Hedron in particular was a technical painting challenge, as it has textures, transparencies and glow!
Tumblr media
TONY: As something of an artist myself (/sarcasm), the card I am most proud of has to be Dinged Waptor. Or really any of the cards I did for the April Fool's event, which is about the only time the art team lets me anywhere near card art. :) For April Fool's, I decided it would be funny to try my hand at drawing some cards I felt players would enjoy. So the first year I drew some original characters that consisted of a few stick figures, a chicken, and a bomb. The response was good, so the following year I continued the tradition, eventually going through and tracing some famous cards like Winged Raptor. My one rule while making these cards was that I could not erase what I did!
Tumblr media
RHADA: We used to sell boxes that contained two new premium cards instead of one. We thought of making both cards in the box thematically linked. At the same time, while brainstorming concepts for dragons, I thought we could try to make cards that formed a bigger picture on the battlefield when placed consecutively, side by side. The initial idea was a serpent whose artwork overflowed into a second card, and after some iteration, we stumbled upon the idea of a dragon dance. The result was very cool!
Tumblr media
TIGR: With the Spellstone story campaign recently concluded, we asked what was next in store for Spellstone fans. Would there be anymore new characters and amazing art to look forward to?
TONY: Absolutely! While the main story has come to a close, we still look forward to adding new characters, cards, and art to the game that lets our artists have fun and shows off the world of Spellstone.
Tumblr media
TIGR: And finally, the most important question of all: would real-life Spellstone merchandise ever be made available for fans of the game? We really want a plushie of the adorable Bomb Spirit (complete with detachable bombs, perhaps?), as well as his angry counterpart, Firebomb Spirit! Also for Quetee Que and Adorabilis, please! And would there ever be any actual physical Spellstone cards produced for collectors?
Tumblr media
TONY: I would personally love to see real-life merchandise, but we currently do not have the means to take on such an endeavour. Maybe one day we can strike a partnership with a team that can make this happen!
We thank the Spellstone team for their time and all the wonderful art assets that accompany this interview! Check out the game here on Kongregate, on Steam, or on mobile - three different ways you can enjoy this fun, cheeky and adorable CCG!
P.S. We just had to include our favourite card: Darkwater Adonis - don’t be fooled by his charms!

Baby Blues, Chapter 4 (Bryce Lahela x MC)
Description: MC and Bryce can handle just about anything. Hopefully, pregnancy and parenting fall into the “just about everything” category.
Pairing: Bryce X f!mc
Preview: For several moments, nobody spoke. Finally Elijah broke the silence.. “So… you’re telling us there’s gonna be a baby to play with soon?”
Previous chapter
After spending the rest of their Friday night researching, they set out Saturday morning to look at cars.
As they walked through the lot, Emily pointed out a bright red Volkswagen Beetle. “I could see you behind the wheel of that.”
Bryce grinned. “Hell yeah. But those aren't really roomy.” He pointed out a sleek black sedan. “How about that?”
Emily read the information sheet attached to the car’s window. “Nope. We can’t afford that until we’re attendings without debt.”
“That’s unfortunate.” Bryce slipped his hand into hers as they walked further down the lot, browsing the available cars. He pointed at a lime green Mustang. “If we had a couple of those, we could race to work.”
“Sounds fun, but that may be frowned upon.” Emily paused as a salesperson approached them. She and Bryce greeted him and shook his hand.
“I’m Brandon. May I help you?”
Emily nodded. “We’re wanting to buy our first car together. We’re having a baby in January, so we need something safe with room for a car seat. Good gas mileage would be a plus, too.”
“I can help you out.” Brandon led them to the next section of the lot. He stopped at a dark blue sedan. “Toyota Camry. Preowned, but low mileage. Good crash test ratings, reliable, and handles smoothly.”
“I like it.” Emily nodded in approval as she looked the car over. “Can we test drive it?”
“Sure. Let me grab your keys and get your license information, then you can take it for a spin.” Brandon wrote down their driver’s license information and retrieved the key from the office. “Have fun.”
Bryce took the key and started the car. “Let’s hit the road.” He gripped the steering wheel and grinned at Emily. “Where are we gonna take this bad boy?”
She chuckled softly. “Let’s drive it to the end of the block and back. I get to drive it back.”
“Adventurous. I like it.”
“You’re a dork.” Emily rolled her eyes and reached over to squeeze his arm. “But you are insanely cute. Just don’t wreck.”
“Why would I do such a thing?” Bryce pulled out of the lot and merged into the street. “Not gonna lie, I feel powerful  behind the wheel.” He reached the end of the block and slowed down, stopping at the curb. “Your turn.”
“Get ready for the ride of a lifetime.” Emily switched with him. She sat behind the wheel and adjusted the seat. Glancing to make sure she was clear, she merged back into the street. “I like this. Let’s buy it.”
“You took the words right out of my mouth.” Bryce grinned. “Looks like we have a new-to-us pre-owned car. Who gets to drive it home?”
Emily pursed her lips in thought. “Hmm. Well, they’ll run a credit check for both of us. Highest credit score is the winner.”
Bryce smirked. “Winner drives home?”
“It’s a bet, Lahela.”
XXXXXXXX
“It feels weird hosting dinner in my own apartment again.”
“Are you officially moving in with Bryce?” Sienna checked on the brownies in the oven.
“Yeah.” Emily nodded as she arranged a spread of finger foods on the counter. “I’m going to make a little announcement later, but I want to tell you first.”
“Ooh, I’m the first to know a secret.” Sienna grinned. “Tell me.”
Taking a deep breath, Emily turned to face her petite best friend. “I’m pregnant.”
Sienna gasped, a wide smile taking over her face. “Are you really? I kinda suspected so, but this is so exciting!” She gave Emily a tight hug. “Who else knows?”
“We told Keiki and my family a week ago, but nobody else knows.”
“Don’t worry. I’ll keep my lips sealed until you tell everyone else.” Sienna pretended to zip her lips, tossing an imaginary key into the trash. “You two are gonna be the cutest parents ever.”
“I hope so.” Emily smoothed a hand over her abdomen. “It won’t be long before everyone can tell I’m pregnant, so I thought now was a good time.”
“Absolutely.”
Soon, the rest of their roommates joined them, along with Bryce. As Bryce entered, he gave Emily a kiss on the cheek.
“Your guest of honor is here.”
“Oh, so that’s you?” Snorting playfully, Emily handed him a grocery bag of plastic cups, napkins. and paper plates. “You get to set the table.”
“It would be my pleasure.” Bryce accepted the bag and started setting the contents out on a table, along with the drinks. Soon, everyone was settled in with a plate of food and a beverage.
Emily and Bryce sat with Emily’s roommates, who were gathered around the coffee table. “So, I’m sure you’re wondering why I’ve gathered you all together when I’m not here much.”
Jackie nodded. “Yeah, we miss your face around here.”
“Well…” Emily reached over, resting a hand on Bryce’s knee. “We’ve known this for a few weeks now. I’m pregnant, so I’ll be officially be moving into Bryce’s apartment soon.”
For several moments, nobody spoke. Finally Elijah broke the silence.. “So… you’re telling us there’s gonna be a baby to play with soon?”
“Yep. As of today, I’m about thirteen weeks along. The baby’s due January 5th.”
Jackie arched a brow. “So we’ll basically be ringing in the New Year with a mini Lahela on the loose.”
Bryce feigned offense, frowning in exaggeration and clutching his chest. “That’s uncalled for.”
“I’m kidding, scalpel jockey.” Jackie rolled her eyes and gave them a smile. “Congrats, you two.”
Aurora smiled. “We’ll miss you, Emily, but I’m happy for you.”
“Thanks, you guys. I’ll miss living here.” Emily took a sip of her punch. “We’ll still see each other every day at work, and it’s not like you can’t visit us or we’re banished from visiting here.”
“Says who?” Jackie teased.
“Leave her alone, Jackie.” Elijah grinned. “As long as I get to be Uncle Elijah and play with the baby, visit all you want.”
Emily gave him a smile. “I think we can accomplish that.”
