Hi - I’m the anon who loves Welcome to the Digital Age, Babe. I hope you don’t mind, but I was inspired to play in the sandbox from one of the messages we exchanged. This is like a really really shorthand version of what I think happened when Colin called someone the wrong name in bed. I guess trigger warning if you don’t like to read about Colin and anyone else but also not really. PS - I have actually never done this before. I just silently read fics but I guess I was feeling inspired : )

It’s a few days before Colin is supposed to meet Penelope in Rome. He’s at some bar in Cyprus with some fellow travelers he’s befriended over the last couple weeks. One of them invited some more friends who invited some more friends and so on. At this point, the group is made up of a few people Colin somewhat knows and strangers. He’s been chatting up this tiny dark-haired girl who beelined to him once she and her friends joined. Her friend keep shooting her obvious sideways looks and pretending they’re coughing but actually giggling. And Colin knows he’s getting lucky tonight.

And ordinarily, he would be thrilled, the frequency of this occurring never taking away from the delight and anticipation. But tonight, he’s feeling out of sorts. He’s been planning this Rome trip for days, probably more intensely than he’s ever planned any trip for himself or even any trip with family. He’s been to Rome before. He knows it. But this is different. He can’t just take Penelope to the usual haunts. This is her first real solo trip and he hates how awkward she feels about traveling with him (it’s obvious). He knows she probably prefers Eloise but since that can’t happen, he wants to make it the Best Trip Ever.

So he’s distracted when Emily (the tiny dark-haired girl) bats her eyelashes at him. He’s thinking about whether he should take Penelope to Mercato Centrale or Testaccio Market when Emily pretends to bump into him. He’s questioning whether he should take her to the Coliseum the first day or the second day after she’s settled in when Emily leans in to whisper in his ear. But because he’s human, he hears her obvious request to “get out of here.” And because he’s not an idiot, they get out of there.

Soon they’re back at Colin’s hotel room and things start heating up. But he’s still having trouble staying present. He’s not thinking about the itinerary any more - that would be an obvious buzzkill. But he’s just…not feeling it? No, they can’t be right. This girl is exactly his type and she so very clearly wants him. But he cannot summon any kind of desire for her right now, even when she’s standing in front of him in only a black bra and underwear. This is not okay. He scrunches up his eyes and digs back into a library of flings and one night stands to ground him.

Suddenly, something comes to him and he just latches on to it. He sees soft, flushed skin and eyes so blue he sees the ocean. He feels red locks of hair in his hands and curling over his body. He touches curves and curves for miles. A familiar body in a black lingerie set that is just driving him wild. The image becomes clearer and clearer and so so familiar and yes, this is exactly it. He is gone. Things are heating up as Colin becomes more enthusiastic, finally stroking and caressing, desperate to be closer, until he hears it…

“Oh my god, Penelope…”

Embarrassingly, it still takes him a beat too long to realize that whatever was going on has now abruptly stopped. He opens his eyes and sees…not Penelope. Shit. Emily is staring back at him, anger and humiliation in her eyes. The next few minutes go as expected. Emily angrily pulls herself together, throwing some choice insults at Colin who can only offer weak apologies and an offer to pay for an Uber. Once Emily has slammed his door shut, Colin lays back on his bed. What the fuck was that? What the absolute fuck… He throws his arms over his face, willing himself to sleep but he sleeps fitfully, thinking about a familiar redhead in black lingerie.

A few days later when Colin meets Penelope at the Rome airport, the open shoulder of her shirt reveals a black bra strap that falls down her arm slightly as she bends over to pick up one of her bags. When she looks up, Colin (who was chattering away the moment he saw her) is now pink and quiet. He stays that way, making occasional comments, for the rest of the way out of the airport while Penelope frets that she’s making things awkward for this trip that Colin is forced to join.

A year and a half later, after a long overdue conversation and an even longer overdue kiss, Penelope pulls off her shirt to reveal a black bra and Colin (to his extreme embarrassment) loudly exclaims, “Fucking finally.”

Hi, my dear! I was so happy to see this message in my inbox 🥰 and I'm so honored that Digital Age inspired you to try and write for the first time!

he hates how awkward she feels about traveling with him (it’s obvious)

This made me smile so hard for some reason I love him being able to feel how awkward she feels through their texts and things. It's like I'm getting to be a reader of my own fic and it's so fun skdfnlsdkf

He's having trouble staying present??? 😭 my baby boy this is kind of cute idk

"eyes so blue he sees the ocean" 🥺🥺🥺 aw???

😬😬😬 oof okay colin not super smooth but... yeah.

And AW the end 😭 no this was so cute? I love this entire plotline (although I am sorry to Emily, homegirl didn't deserve that) and how it would fit into WTTDA! I would happily put a stamp of approval on this addition<3

Thank you so much for popping this in my inbox! If you want to, I would definitely encourage you to keep writing :-) this was so fun to read and had my grinning (and cringing). And the last line made me giggle.

#thank you again this is so!!!#I got such a thrill out of reading it #welcome to the digital age #bridgerton fic #<3 love you anon please feel free to get off anon at any time so we can be mutuals #<33333 #polin

you don’t like to kiss satoru when he wears his blindfold.

you understand why he wears it, and you don’t have any problem with it besides how distanced you feel from him when he tries to be intimate with it on. so while you never ask him to take off his blindfold, you simply refuse to engage him when he wears it.

guilt eats at you for even feeling this way in the first place—after all, satoru’s health came before your own menial, selfish wants. still, you couldn’t help the uneasiness that came as a result of trying to be affectionate with him while half his face was completely blocked off from you.

and satoru doesn’t like this. he’s not immensely clingy, or at least not often enough to call him clingy, but he does like to have you near him, tuck you into his side and steal a slow kiss or two from you on occasion. especially when he’s feeling stressed or annoyed does he seek out your soothing touch, which tended to be pretty often from how demanding the higher ups are of him.

you’ll still lend a listening ear, lean in real close and scan his face as if trying to see those bright blue eyes of his through the dark mask he often wears, perhaps even wrap your arms around him and card your fingers through his hair held up by the fabric around his head. and most of the time simply being near you, touching you in one way or another is enough to soothe his aching muscles and tense mind. but when he leans in to press his lips against yours and you dodge, he immediately realizes that it’s not enough.

“you’re mean.” he pouts, and though you can’t see his eyebrows crease in distress, you can certainly imagine it, and you laugh.

“when we’re at home.” you reassure him, rubbing your hands up and down his arms.

he speculated for some time that you rejected him because of the setting, that it was unprofessional or perhaps embarrassing. but you had no problem angling his head toward you and stealing a kiss from his lips on the rare occasion he decided to wear his glasses to work, and so he eventually managed to piece together that the blindfold was the problem.

satoru’s frown only deepens, because he wants a kiss from you now. why should he have to wait to kiss his own partner?

“just a small one. a quick one.” he tries to bargain, holding your elbows, but you only shake your head with an amused smile.

“later.” you promise, and before he can press further, your students start to approach and your attentions are required elsewhere.

you uphold your promise, cupping his face and kissing him with so much love behind closed doors, as if you were anticipating the moment as much as he was—when his blindfold is off. but he’s still troubled by the fact that you refuse to kiss him with it on. it’s a part of him. do you think he’s ugly with it on? that’s got to be it.

he continues to whine and chase after your lips when the two of you are at work, but you only chuckle and angle his face away, and eventually it really strikes a nerve with him, frustrated over not knowing why you were so adamant on avoiding his kiss when he wore his blindfold. you haven’t tried to initiate, or even reciprocate his advances, even once!

he brings up this concern one day when you two are at home, when your bodies are messily intertwined on the living room couch, satoru’s chin propped up on your chest and your hand cupping his face as you cuddled and giggled about whatever sort of conversation you were making that night. in the security of your shared home, and in your comforting embrace, does satoru allow himself to wind down, letting his cursed energy seep out, and using it as an incentive to relax a slight bit.

you say something and he laughs, and upon seeing his smile and endearing eyes crinkle happily, you lean in to close the space between your lips.

he immediately reciprocates the kiss, the hold he has around your waist tightening. but then he remembers being in a similar scenario hours prior, and you refusing to meet his lips then. he pulls away gently as the dejection bubbles up in his stomach again, and his smile slightly drops.

“why don’t you kiss me when i wear my blindfold?”

the question, coupled with the blunt and slightly miserable tone satoru asks it with, catches you off guard, and his knit brows makes your breath hitch.

this was the thing about satoru without his blindfold. every piece of him—every vulnerable expression, every crease on his face, every emotion of his—was on display for you to bask in. rubbing your thumb over his cheek is welcome. there isn’t any fabric to bump into and make you feel like you’re being pushed out, make you feel like your affection is being suppressed.

satoru without his blindfold was open, intimate—whole. but when he wrapped the fabric around his eyes, it felt like he was also hiding a part of himself you adored. not the overwhelming strength he held in those enchanting cerulean eyes of his, but the love and affection they glimmered with when he was with you, a glimmer you’re sure was reciprocated in your own eyes as well. a part of him that displayed his adoration for you, for the things he loved most, clear as day.

“it’s silly, satoru.” you tell him reluctantly, gently playing with his hair. his sad smile makes you feel guilty, gnaws at your heart. but the part of you that feels shut away with that blindfold overtakes an insecurity deep inside. “i don’t want to concern you with it.”

“you gotta tell me what’s up, sweets. think i’m ugly?” he tries to tease, and you roll your eyes.

“just feel distant from you, ‘s all.”

voicing it aloud makes you feel just as small and silly as you told him it is. perhaps you were overthinking things too much.

you’re afraid to explain any further, because you don’t even know if you can without sounding even more insecure than you feel, but satoru immediately understands, and all the tension he’s built over the situation melts away in an instant, and he chuckles.

“like my eyes on you, huh?” he wiggled his brows, and you scoff, moving your hands down to his neck. he leans in a little closer, speaks a little softer. “they’re always on you.”

your heart flutters as satoru kisses over the side of your jaw, giggling at the slight tickling sensation. he mimics your smile from against your jawline when he hears you laugh.

he thinks he understands. if he wasn’t able to see those gorgeous eyes of your as they crease when you laugh, or gaze up at him in awe when he pulls away from a kiss only you could make so sweet, he thinks he’d also feel shut out, robbed of that small but intimate and beautiful part of you that leaves him breathless. he had a responsibility as the strongest to keep himself in line, but he also had a responsibility to you. he committed himself to that responsibility ages ago when you first met.

satoru stares up at you from the crook of your neck, and it’s as if there’s hearts in his eyes, a sight that never fails to fluster you when you realize that it’s all directed toward you, a result of you. it reminds you just why you were so insecure in the first place. why would you want to kiss him when he wore his blindfold when you were deprived of this sight while doing so?

“just try to kiss me with my blindfold.” he mumbles, and it sounds insensitive after what you told him, but it’s exactly why he wants to prove that not a single ounce of love for you is hidden away when he wears it.

you frown, but still reach to grab the black band from when he threw it on the coffee table hours ago. you wrap it around his eyes for him, feeling slightly saddened by the sight already, but his lovesick smile never falters.

as soon as your hands lower from behind his head, he’s gently pushing his lips against yours, and it feels every bit of kind and loving and special as it did when you kissed him without it. his lips move slowly, yet passionately, with yours, and for the first time, your hands move to cup his face in reciprocation. the touch elates satoru like nothing else in the world, and you can’t believe you ever expected anything different.

when he finally pulls away, you could swear you see those bright blue eyes of his staring at you with that dizzying gaze that makes you feel light and loved. the blindfold makes you feel a lot more exposed than he is though, and you can’t help but blush and bring your hands over your face to try and even the playing field.

he laughs at this reaction and tries to pry your hands away from your face. “so? anything different?” he grins, feeling proud knowing he accomplished his goal from your reaction, and you laugh.

“i still prefer it off.”

“that’s fine,” he hums, lowering the band so it hangs loosely around his neck with one hand, bringing your hands down away from your face with the other. “i prefer it off, too.”

and from then on you become a little more comfortable kissing satoru with his blindfold on, and he’s over the moon at you now indulging him when he’d pull you into a random empty classroom and lean in close.

but he doesn’t see the harm in compromise, however, so he’ll indulge you too. and when he’s feeling particularly eager, he’ll wrap an arm around your waist, quickly tug his blindfold down to his neck, and capture your lips in a breathless kiss.

whether he does this in an empty classroom or to say hello or goodbye before heading off on a mission with his students, you get to see those mesmerizing eyes of his shine with all the affection and love he holds for you.

besides, you can't help but admit that it’s even more satisfying when he does it in front of others, tugging the blindfold off simply for your sake, showing off to everyone else the state you reduce him too.

so perhaps you’ve grown to like kissing satoru when he wears his blindfold.

I have been meaning to do a crossover with the one and only @kathaynesart for such a long time! And the @tmntaucompetition has created the perfect excuse for this :)

I think Sprout and Omega would have a surprising amount in common, they have a lot they can talk about with one another!

Apologies for the cliffhanger- haha- whoops-

#2 arms left #replica #rottmnt #rise of the tmnt #once again thank you diana for making these sick ass viking designs #that still have the plastrons showing because I like drawing them hehe #anyways reason for the cliffhanger: I had the dialogue leading up to this point #but my head blanked on what sort of response omega would give #so I am potentially leaving this to kat if she has time o7 <3 #also how rooms/locations work in the multiverse is confusing... haha

Hi it's just to let you know that the official romanization of Revaan's name is Raverne ! Also they have romanized Baul's name to Baur !

Twst coming back at us again with the least expected romanization! thank you everybody (oh god my inbox) (no it's great, I literally asked for this and the reactions have been INCREDIBLE, thank you all!)

I do like Raverne though, I think it's got a nice fancy sound to it! (I had kinda suspected it was going to be an R instead of an L, so the fact that it's SO close to Laverne except for that is hilarious to me personally.) and Dragoneye Duke is honestly probably the best translation for his title, I wasn't envying the localizers that one. :') Baur instead of Baul I was NOT expecting, but in retrospect I think his name's supposed to be a reference to the Bauru crocodile, so that actually makes way more sense!

someone else also said Meleanor has become Maleanor, which is the REALLY weird one to me, because I was so surprised it was written as Mel instead of Mal in the first place?! oh god no I can't decide which one I like better. 😭 (I wonder if they might change it to Mal...they have made romanization changes before) (like I remember House of Distraction being corrected to House of Destruction in Playful Land) (I did check and she's still Mel for now, but I dunno, they might Mal her up and some point and save me from having to make a decision about which one to use) (HECK I CAN'T DECIDE)

uhhhh thank you for letting me ramble about anime names, let's just say MONOGRAMMED SWEATERS FOR EVERYONE
