AHHHH I LOVE UR CHUBBY EDDIE STUFF ITS JUST SO 💕💕💕 I WAS WONDERING IF I COULD REQUEST MORE OF IT, LIKE MAYBE EDDIE FEELING INSECURE AND NOT GOOD ENOUGH FOR READER AND READWE BEING LIKE 😧AND SHOWERS HIM WITJ AFFECTION OR SOME ASSHOLE SAYS SOMETHING BAD ABOUT EDDIE AND THE READEE BEATS YHE SHIT OUT OF THEM 🥰
Temperamental (Chubby! Edward Nashton x Reader)
Reader punches a man and Edward's convinced he found his soulmate.
I think Y/n deserves to go apeshit every once n a while. As a treat.
Warning: Very minor one sentence fatphobia, warning here just in case that makes any readers uncomfortable lol
Ever since you and Edward got together, Edward has tried to be on his best behavior. Always holding off his short temper until you were gone, it was a factor of his personality he couldn't risk for you to see. You meant everything to him and his explosive temper felt like more of a deal breaker than revealing that he was the Riddler.
And while he believes the Lord gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers, Edward would've preferred if he didn't start testing him on the date that'd mark an important milestone in his relationship with you: making things official. Mishaps ranging from the waiter getting both of your orders wrong, to rain pouring on what was supposed to be a romantic, after dinner walk made Edward want to scream and rip his hair out.
The only thing preventing Edward from doing so was the person holding his hand as they walked to the park to where they first met. A simple glance at you made it all worth it. You were here with him despite this shit show, it motivated him to keep calm and ask if he could be yours. Just a couple more blocks until he could make the night worth it. Edward dreamily smiled at you as the Gotham lights illuminated your features. He opened his mouth to speak until a man bumped into him, not so quietly muttering a "Move it, fatass" as he walked in front of you two.
Edward paused in his tracks as the words hit. They were simple words, something he's heard his entire life. He knows he should be used to it by now, but with all the small events building up over the night, Edward had it. You glanced over at Edward and saw the glossy sheen over his eyes and looked back at the man. Wordlessly made your way to the stranger, the only warning you gave was a stern "Hey!" before you delivered a firm punch to the center of his face.
Edward stood baffled as he watched the man curse and push you away as he ran off covering his nose. You took a couple more steps in his direction as you yelled at him once more, "Asshole! Don't talk shit if you can't take it!" Your date can only stare at the interaction in surprised awe.
Edward felt special in that moment.
You assaulted a man for him.
And it was so satisfying to watch.
You looked back at your dominant hand in thought as you walked back to Edward. "I'm so sorry for acting out..I have a bad temper and I can't stand people like that guy. Are you okay, Edward?" The man in question looked at you with a blush across his cheeks and a astonished glint in his eyes.
Mindlessly, he only responded with a simple "Be mine."

Broken Shards of a Shattered Soul
Chapter 1: Why Must Poison Taste so Sweet?
Word count: 401
Fandom: Villains Series - V. E. Schwab
Characters: Eli Cardale/Eli Ever, Victor Vale
Warning/content: Religious trauma, suicidal thoughts, angst
Summary: A dive into the psychology of religious trauma and what that entails on somebody so utterly damaged, he simply turns to the pain in hopes the familiarity will save him. But does it ever?
A/N: Sorry if it's a little short, I promise the next chapter is a little bit longer-
𝐕𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬: 𝐛𝐞𝐭𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝟏𝟎 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐕𝐢𝐜𝐭𝐨𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧
Eli wanted to die.
He wanted to see God.
How merciful it would've been to be embraced in the Lord's arms. He could feel it now, that light, that love, the warmth of a body pressed against his. A hand caressing his head so gently, all the memories of his mother humming gospel songs to her sweet angel. He didn't remember crying in this dream, but the world blurred with splashes of paint, blended with such meticulous brushstrokes so fine it was as if it were never there at all. Then it spun in circles when space collided with the universe, colors dancing as it bloomed like flowers; shimmering silver and gold, tiny pinpricks on a black canvas.
It ended with a dream.
And there he was, arms tightening around themselves, sheets nearly falling off the bed. Vulnerable. Fragile. He unfurled his body from its fetal position, hot shame washing over him. Eli clenched his teeth, choking down the tears, the weakness that ate at him. It was agony, that desperate yearning for love, like reaching out at a ghost just to bring back dust.
A voice whispered at the back of his mind. Delicate, almost motherly. So faint he had to strain his head to catch that lilting tune.
"God gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers."
Sometimes he wished God could've saved him. But now that he was older, he could understand. It was clear to him now, the realization thawing him from his frozen cage. God had been his father, he beat that weakness from his body, saved him, and molded him into a warrior. So how did it still persist? That gnawing feeling in his stomach, a monster raking its claws across that hollow space?
He blinked and let the pillow absorb those disgusting tears. His mother had been too weak, that was all. She wasn't strong enough, not like him. He was truly blessed, he gave up his life to worship his true father. He sacrificed his own soul to save every damned sinner. God would understand, he always did.
Eli murmured a small prayer. He shut his eyes from the illusion of reality. It was just him and God, in this eternal darkness, an infinite void of nothingness. Father and son. Holy and made again.
He spoke and God listened.
And God let him suffer.

God gives His strongest soldier (me) His toughest battles (waiting for RE8 DLC about the Dimitrescu family that will never ever happen)
LISTEN WE CAN HOPE
but yeah they would probably do a full four lords DLC rather than do something with JUST the Dimitrescus, even as profitable as that may be. here’s to holding out some hope we’ll see glimpses of them in the upcoming one :’)
#asks#i’m gonna get to your other ask after i take this dumb exam#wish my luck besties 💪#been up since 7am yesterday and it is now almost 10:40am 💪💪💪#i’m gonna cry sjdhsjd

Toughest soldiers
“God gives His toughest battles to His strongest soldiers.”
…not so much!
The truth is that God equips His soldiers for their toughest battles!
This is a phrase I've heard and like but it’s not quite right. In that GOD equips us for the battles that come our way. And He does everything for a reason. Yet, He will never allow us to go through more than we can handle and He’ll always be there helping us and strengthening us.
“What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?” (Romans 8:31)
He is our strength and our guide. He will always be with us and will never fail us, He’s the only one who is consistently reliable in any and every situation.
“God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.” (Psalm 46:1)
He will protect us and come to our aid in amazing and inexplicable ways . . .
When we think we’re outnumbered—He surrounds us.
“When the servant of the man of God got up and went out early the next morning, an army with horses and chariots had surrounded the city. ‘Oh no, my lord! What shall we do?” the servant asked. ‘Don’t be afraid,’ the prophet answered. ‘Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.’ And Elisha prayed, ‘Open his eyes, Lord, so that he may see.’ Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.” (2 Kings 6:15-17)
When we are in need and ask for help—or even when we don’t ask! (For our Father knows what we need before we ask!) He will meet our every need.
“And my God will supply every need of yours according to his riches in glory in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 4:19)
When we feel alone and afraid, He’s there with us.
“So do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.” (Isaiah 41:10)
When we feel hopeless—we remember we’re never without hope. For our hope is our through Jesus we have victory! He is our S A V I O R ! He is our Hope!
“We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.” (Hebrews 6:19)
“No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us.” (Romans 8:37)
This victory comes through our trust, reliance, and faith in God.
“May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace as you trust in him, so that you may overflow with hope by the power of the Holy Spirit.” (Romans 15:13)
Yes, we are soldiers—God’s soldiers and that’s exactly why we must always remember that our strength and glory come from Him.

Appreciation
Have you ever met that one person in your life that just has made an impact or just has a happy attitude and enjoy their presence? I have and his name was John Bigelow. He was a co-worker of mine and he was just a good man, a loving husband and a father to five kids. Every day he would walk into work shake my hand and tell me “thank you for coming into work today” or “the lord woke us up and were blessed to see another day”. He just had this way of making you feel appreciated and you enjoyed working with him. It would always put a smile on my face and would put me in a great mood for the rest of the day. People like John are tough to come by not just in the workplace but life in general. I cannot say enough about his character as a man and his charm he brought to the company.
Everything was going great he was being very productive on our jobsite as our project manager and he was really enjoying his role. You could just tell he was all in and bought in to our philosophy to what we are trying to build at the company. One day he walked into our office and talked to my father with his door shut for about a half hour not to mention he did not do his normal “thank you for coming into work today” routine, I knew something was wrong. The door opened and everyone was emotional and I was heartbroken as they told me he has terminal lung cancer and was given a few months to live. I was in shock and almost in a state of denial. I kept thinking to myself how does this happen to someone like you? It really is not fair how someone could be taken away from you and not to mention his family he left behind. It made me really sit back and reflect on life and how quickly things could change for the better or for the worse. There was an annual “turkey bowl” football game fundraiser put on for him by his local community and they ended up raising close to a million dollars for his chemotherapy and radiation treatments. Which I thought was an awesome accomplishment and well deserved for the family. He was given months to live and ended up battling the cancer off and on for over a year. He eventually lost his battle with cancer that summer. His last words to me were “I have been put in a great position, I either beat cancer and come back to my blessings in life, or I meet the lord and rest in peace. What do I have to worry about?” That is what I remember about this man and this book will never describe the impact he had on my life. At that moment my attitude about life shifted and I starting finding myself becoming more positive and uplifting. There are very few people you will meet in your life that you will have the ability to say that person changed my life and John is one of them. People come and go in your life for a reason and I am happy to say I met John and I am very happy that I did and had a chance to work with him.
Another influential person in my life is Gina Kruez. She was my aunt on my moms side of our family. She recently passed away due to an unexpected asthma attack. She was a healthy and happy woman in her mid 40’s. I was very close with her along with the rest of the family. She was always the one with a smile on her face and it was literally impossible to be upset when I was around her. I can remember sleeping over her house growing up and all of the heartwarming memories. She never had a serious problem with her asthma in the past but every once in a while it would flare up cause her to find an inhaler right away. When I got the phone call that she passed away it was heart breaking and tough to take in. She was the last person that I would ever imagine to lose given her age and health. I recently had a tattoo done in remembrance of her passing. I have a heart tattoo symbolizing grief of her loss with the bottom half of the heart drawn like a diamond representing her charming and sparkling personality.
God has a plan for everyone and he works in mysterious ways. I can only take this a lesson learned in that no one should ever take a single moment for granted. If you constantly think of things that you do not have or things that you wish you had, you will lose focus on what is in front of you right now. Whether it is loved ones, friends or personal possessions anything in life can be taken away from you at any given moment. Nothing is guaranteed forever, all we can do is be thankful of the things you have and not overlook things because you really do not know what you have until it is gone. But nevertheless, these things that happened in my life in the last few years are proof that your life could take a turn for the worse at any moment and there is nothing that you can do about it, nothing is guaranteed. Like I said God works in mysterious ways and sometimes a broken path could lead to a beautiful destination. If your life seems to be fallen apart it may be a sign that something better is on its way. I have been blessed with children in my life yet, but when that time comes a blessing will enter my life. Just with death comes the idea of life. God gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers and tough times do not last but tough people do.

The size of your storm tells you, your importance
There are times when you're going through a storm and you don't think that you can hold on. Things are coming at you so fast and so hard and you feel like you're drowning, you feel like you can't do this, you can't hold on for one day, for one more second.
But there is that little bit of faith, that mustard seed seed of faith that you have that has kicked in and tells you that you got this. Just hold on, hold on for one more day, for one more minute because God will change this. Yes, I know your cries, I feel your pain because my storm started when I was young and that I probably went through more storms than most people will ever face in a lifetime but it just reminds me that the size of my storm tells me my importance in God's eyes.
Yes, he allows these storms to come at you, it is to make you stronger, to build your tolerance, to show you how tough you are.
But I am human and there are many times I've cried out to God, why? I've cried out, I can't do this, I don't wanna go on.
I don't have the strength and then I'll see something that will remind me that God only gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers and I think I don't wanna be his strongest soldier but this is the journey he gave me and I know that this journey is for a reason.
This gives me the courage to go on, to press on even when I feel like I have nothing left because I know that I didn't go through all of this for nothing. I know that he has a purpose for my life and he has one for yours as well
My purpose is that I would be able to have this voice that I do to tell others that they too can make it too, to tell others not to give up, to hold on, to have faith and to believe that God has a plan even if it doesn't seem like it right now.
God knows what he's doing and trust me one day you'll look back at this and you'll be like me and say "Wow, I can't believe I went through that. I can't believe I did that, I can't believe I got past all of that"
If you give up now you'll never know what is coming, you'll never know the blessings that you'll have in your life for the struggles you've been through but you have to hold on, that is the only way.
There have been many times that I wanted to give up and then I'll hear a song on the radio, or I'll open up my social media and see a quote that I know could only come from God, to give me the hope I need.
Recently I wanted to stop writing, I felt like it was not going anywhere, what am I doing? I am still not making a living from this, I am not where I want to be even though I've been doing this for the last eight years, every day, five days a week. 52 weeks a year and still I am not where I want to be. They say faith without works is dead but come on! I am working this at 5 am and until 10 pm at night, I am posting, reposting, I am working Lord knows I'm am working this and still nothing.
Then that morning I got a message from someone I didn't know, and she tells me that she's been following me for a while and that she knows my struggles and it has given her hope to hold on. She told me that I inspired her to keep going and I started crying.
I knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that this was a message from God, to tell me don't give up, it's coming, just hold on a little longer.
So I keep going, these little signs keep me going. I've learned to pray during the storms, to let go and let God, to pray and let God worry because the storms are bigger than me and I cannot do this on my own. I know my importance must be huge because of the size of the storms I keep going through but I will forge on because he believes in me.
So today my friends, remember that your storms are there for a reason, for a lesson. You are his strongest soldier and you have been put into the battle because of this. Never forget the size of the storms you face, tells you, your importance. Hold on, don't give up, look for God's signs, you got this
"Be the change you want to see"
"And just when the caterpillar thought his life over...he turned into a beautiful butterfly"
