30 Day Writing Challenge - Day 6

Write about a blackout (from this list) ➸ totally cheating once again and using this as a one-word prompt instead of probably how it was intended??? oh well. have some canon-verse angst and I’m sorry…

“Do you want to know the stupidest part?”

Foggy looks over at Matt, who’s hunched over his drink like someone might steal it from him. Then again, the fake IDs that got them into this bar were honestly not the highest quality, so it’s not an entirely baseless fear.

“Granted you’ve told me like three details total about what happened between you and Elektra, I will take any additional information you want to divulge, stupid or otherwise.”

Matt blinks at him with hollow eyes. “You just said a lot of words to me.”

Foggy sighs. “What’s the stupidest part, Matt?”

“I thought—it’s just—you’re going to think I’m a moron.”

“I won’t,” Foggy says, grabbing his shoulder and giving it a firm squeeze. “I think you’re extremely smart, buddy. You might be the smartest person I know, okay? Just tell me. I promise I won’t judge.”

Matt looks so utterly fragile and lost in that moment that Foggy honestly doesn’t want to hear what’s going to come out of his mouth next, because he just knows it will break his heart. It’s been hard seeing Matt in such bad shape and to know almost nothing about what happened between him and his girlfriend after he’d disappeared with her for two weeks. Foggy had been a wreck about it, beside himself with worry and yet without a legitimate reason to excuse himself from classes and responsibilities, so he’d walked around for those two weeks like a shell, keeping up appearances, until Matt came back. His relief at his reappearance was quickly replaced by a new kind of worry, when he saw how miserable and unstable Matt was in the wake of…whatever happened. Matt still couldn’t be induced by any means to give Foggy a straight answer on that count.

“I thought I was going to marry her,” Matt says, quietly. If Foggy hadn’t been actively trying to hear him, that statement would have been lost to the noise of the bar.

“That’s not stupid at all,” Foggy says, allowing the hand on Matt’s shoulder to slip over to rub his back between his shoulder blades.

“I thought she was my soulmate,” Matt adds, with some vitriol, in the direction of his drink, like he wants to spit the words in there to drown them.

“She wasn’t,” Foggy replies, firmly, because it seems like the right thing to say up until Matt’s face crumples.

“I think she was,” he says, miserably, as he buries his face in his hands. “I think she was and she left anyway and that’s it for me.”

“I don’t—hey, listen, Matt,” Foggy says, shifting his chair over so he can wrap his arms around Matt’s shoulders completely. “I’m sorry, okay? I’m sorry I said she—I didn’t know her that well. Maybe she was your soulmate. I don’t know! I’m not convinced that’s anything but a nice story we like to tell ourselves to make life more bearable or to impose meaning on random events.”

“This pep talk sucks,” Matt says, in the vicinity of Foggy’s collar. Foggy can feel his breath on his neck and it’s weird but not enough to get him to move away.

“Sorry. What I mean to say is, if soulmates are real, and Elektra was yours, then it’s not over yet. Maybe you’ll meet again someday.”

“I hope not,” Matt says, darkly.

Foggy resists the urge to roll his eyes at yet another vague but still concerning allusion to this terrible breakup. He’s trying to be sympathetic but Matt’s whole Catholic guilt lone wolf shit does test him sometimes, if he’s being honest. Still, one look at Matt’s pale, sorrowful face in the neon lights of this dive bar is enough to remind Foggy what they’re doing here.

“I think it’s much more likely that, if we have soulmates at all, we probably get more than one,” Foggy continues, hoping that if he just muses vaguely enough, he’ll stumble on something that makes Matt feel better. “So, you’ll get another chance to—”

“You mean like you and me?” Matt asks, and Foggy’s brain does a full factory reset as he tries to parse that question. He can’t possibly mean…

“Oh, like—yeah, you and me and, well, everybody could have more than one soulmate. Exactly.”

“No, that’s not—” Matt shakes his head, which, given his current position, is functionally just nuzzling his face into Foggy’s neck. “I mean, how you and me are soulmates. Kind of.”

“You and me?” Foggy asks, casually despite not feeling casual at all. “You think so?”

“You’re—yeah. I mean, you’re basically—you’re family to me but…also more than that. If that makes sense.”

It doesn’t and Foggy’s been holding himself back from drinking too much tonight because he wants to be able to get Matt home safely, but he does feel like he might throw up on this table right now. He tucked away the part of him that found Matt attractive somewhere deep and secret and well-fortified in his soul a long time ago, in the interest of not fucking things up with his best friend in the entire world, and he certainly can’t trust anything Matt says now when he’s drunk and lonely and heartbroken. But he’s never loved anyone as completely as he loves Matt and it’s such a pathetic, hopeless situation that he doesn’t let himself think about it except on really special occasions when he wants to feel bad.

“I’m not sure anybody has ever loved me as much as you do,” Matt says, like it’s not a crazy thing to say, here in a shitty bar near campus, after a breakup with his girlfriend, to someone he’s never even kissed.

“I doubt that,” Foggy says, even as he, selfishly, wants to claim it, even as he knows it to be true. “You’re very lovable.”

“We should get married.”

Foggy laughs, because what else can he do, under the circumstances. “Now? It’s pretty late. The courthouse won’t even be open.”

“No, I mean, we should get married someday,” Matt says, petulant like Foggy’s the one being ridiculous here for not following his thought process. “When we’re older. If we haven’t met anybody else.”

That last condition is enough to break Foggy’s heart all over again, but he does an admirable job hiding it, he thinks. Matt’s drunk and very distracted, and more importantly doesn’t know anything about how Foggy feels, really, despite his proclamations on the subject a moment ago, so it feels safe to assume he won’t notice any signs of disappointment or hurt in this split second before Foggy swallows those feelings and pretends to be his usual upbeat self. That’s who Matt really needs right now, and so that’s who he’ll be.

“How much older?” Foggy asks.

“Old,” Matt says. “Like, thirty.”

“Okay,” Foggy nods, already able to find this funny. Matt won’t still be single by the time they’re both thirty. He’ll be married by the time they graduate law school, most likely, so it won’t be an issue. Foggy doesn’t like to think about it, but he knows it’s true.

“You’ll do it?”

“Maybe,” Foggy says. “Ask me again when you’re not blackout drunk.”

“I’m fine,” Matt objects. “I’m not blackout. Not even close.”

“Then we can pick this conversation up in the morning, no problem!”

Matt nods, drunkenly. “Absolutely.”

Matt doesn’t bring it up in the morning, of course. Foggy never really expected he would, either, and doesn’t permit himself to be disappointed about it, no matter how much he would like to.

#I used the word ‘blackout’ here and therefore I have fulfilled the prompt #if you knew how many versions of this I wrote and then threw out and then started over #you would forgive me for utterly phoning it in on this prompt #anyway #finished is better than perfect so….#HWS30days #30 days challenge #writing challenge #homelywenchsociety #that’s my writing tag! don’t worry about it!#…….sigh I really want to trash this in the tags but that’s not allowed #slowly killing the perfectionist in my brain by churning out absolutely MID prompt fills like this #mattfoggy #matt murdock #foggy nelson #daredevil #idk idk idk I’m going to listen to a podcast by which I mean fall asleep to a podcast #bye

I have a headcanon that Mibuchi does self-care nights every Friday after the week is done, where he'll put on a face mask and watch some sappy romcoms in his room. Sometimes, he'll get Akashi and the other Uncrowned Kings to join him, and, on occasion, he'll even offer to paint their nails. If any of them show up to practice with different color nails after the weekend, no one else on the team mentions a damn thing.

#i remember in one of the knb video games bokushi and kuroko watch a movie together and bokushi says mibuchi once took them to a romance film #so like canonically they would definitely do stuff that mibuchi wants to do cuz they seem to have done it before #a self-care day would probably not even phase them in the slightest #hayama would probably be the most excited about painting nails #akashi and nebuya would probably start asking questions about the skincare products so they can get some too #and eventually the romcom playing on mibuchi's laptop would slowly become bg noise as they all start chatting among themselves #it would almost be like a sleepover #though tbh it wouldn't surprise me if at any point they all fall asleep in mibuchi's room #and then they all wake up with smooth skin and yassified nails like “what happened 👁👄👁”#anyway just wanted an excuse to have another cute headcanon with the rakuzan team #kuroko no basket #knb headcanons #akashi seijuro #mibuchi reo #hayama kotarou #nebuya eikichi #rakuzan

hi hi okay imagine. stede wants to brush out ed's hair the way izzy always does. maybe izzy is busy on deck taking note of damages after a raid. maybe they had an infestation and he's going over ration spoilage and inventory with roach. ed is tired and cranky and absentmindedly separating sections of curls and tugging them apart at the bottom where they get stuck together in knots. stede offers to help with the tangles, says he would love to give it a go and help ed relax

izzy walks in a few minutes later and immediately comes up and tells stede he's doing it all wrong but also gently takes the brush from him and shows him the right way - where to hold the hair, how to start at the bottom with little sections and work his way up, when to start with his fingers instead of the brush. neither of them can see it but ed is smiling so much his face might actually burst

#ofmd hc #steddyhands #izzy hands #edward teach #stede bonnet #listen. you really think stede knows how to do hair #no way did he have an intimate enough connection with mary to do this for her #and alma's hair looks fairly thin and straight so even if he did give the occasional brush before bedtime long curly hair is so different #especially out in the ocean air?? that is not a ten second process to undo let me tell you #yes I'm strongly in club izzy-did-jeff's-hair but even if he didn't then I think it would have been ed #stede simply doesn't have the experience and know-how - yet #izzy on the other hand. i like to think this is something of a ritual that they have #ed sitting back with his leg stretched out at the end of a long day and izzy behind him first working out the tangles slowly bit by bit #then once all the tangles are gone just brushing from the top of his scalp down the full length of his hair in long and gentle strokes #izzy would have him practically purring and when he's done ed would be ready to fall asleep right then and there #izzy nudging ed to get into bed because he might not care now but he'll care in the morning if sleeping here fucks up his knee or back #(because no one is more of an expert at taking care of ed than izzy)#maybe their ritual can change to involve izzy starting on each section and undoing the worst of the knots with his fingers #then stede following it up with brushing out each section #stede doing the post-tangle brushing until ed's hair is as soft as it can be while izzy lies next to ed with his head in ed's lap #bonus: ed now gets to run his hands through izzy's hair too can you imagine #ANYWAY i'm here for this very soft tender stizzy moment of izzy teaching stede to properly care for ed #just a little post

Sierra Six being my S/I's bodyguard and not quite differentiating the lines between "I need to be closer to Keri in order to keep Keri safe" vs "I need to be closer to Keri due to these... budding personal feelings that I don't understand that seem to be consuming me whole but I'm sure that's normal and nothing I need to dwell on whatsoever"

Such as making sure her ice cream isn't poisoned so he taste tests it first. but then it evolves into her spoon feeding him a few more bites... minutes later they're both sharing it together. then it becomes a weekly routine, get ice cream every Sunday afternoon

Or he checks everywhere in her room before she sleeps, under the bed, the closet, makes sure the windows are locked. then he sits in the room closest to that bedroom door and stays awake typing on his computer or something. but her nightmares make her jolt awake crying out, so he's rushing to her side and calming her. Minutes later he's crawling into bed next to her and cuddling her like a good bodyguard does. because all bodyguards cuddle in bed with the person they're protecting, right? sure, he's sure of it. yeah. This is an every night ordeal until finally she asks him to just sleep in the same bed with her so if she has a nightmare he can just be there immediately. and he's all calm and collected "sure of course I can do that for you" but he isn't sleeping immediately. he isn't in that habit. he's fully alert of every creak in the wood, the branches snapping outside, every tiny noise. His cheeks are on FIRE and he's trying to hide the shake in his hands when Keri suddenly rolls over in her sleep, her face pressed against his chest, unconsciously wrapping her arms around him. And he's wrapping his strong arms around her, petting her hair, suppressing the urge to kiss her forehead. YEAH SURELY ALL BODYGUARDS DO THIS. And for the first time in a very, very long time, Keri doesn't have any bad dreams that night.

Making sure he's always turning his head towards her and annunciating as clear as possible because he knows she needs to read lips to fully understand someone. He starts wearing chapstick. He starts sharing it with her. He tries not to think about how that chapstick is the closest he'll ever get to her lips. He tries not to dwell on that.

#saw an interview where ryan said that Six just wants so badly to live a little bit #and he's destined for this life of danger and he will never be free from it and it's all he craves #he doesn't want to be a spy. he doesn't want to be an assassin.#he wants to eat chicken nuggets and watch netflix and fall asleep on the couch #he doesn't want to jolt awake gasping every night. he doesnt want to look over his shoulder every 2 seconds #he doesnt want to be on high alert 24/7 knowing anyone and everyone is after him constantly #and he cant even trust the organization he was accepted into #so when he finds something that he enjoys like... a comfortable shirt or a delicious meal #or getting a new tattoo or listening to a good song. he holds onto that.#he just wants to live. and ryan said he cherishes those moments where he's living his life just a little #like at the party in the first scene he's just eating chicken and laughing a little with Dani #so I feel like w/ me he starts finding those moments more and more #bc I'm insisting Six have some more ice cream. Six come see this movie with me #Six you don't have to hold my bags just hold my hand. Six let's get you a Kenough shirt #Six let's go to that new pizza place and let me order you your favorite toppings. my treat #Six I saw this pendant and thought of you. Six I drew this for you. Six this song reminds me of you.#and slowly over time it's not just a bodyguard and the girl he's protecting #it's two friends teaching each other how to find love in living again #his love for the smallest moments gives her that bit of motivation to live too #his appreciation for the small things. those little gratitudes. they add up #I LOVE HIM SO MUCHHHHH #love notes #💕♡☆ I'll always protect you ☆🖤🎆#IT FEELS SO GOOD TO WRITE LOVE NOTES AGAINNNNN

Anyone wanna platonically cuddle and do each others nails and eat snacks and buy new wands to cast spells to curse all assholes and watch a scary movie under a fuzzy blanket with me?

#its started to become cold #platonic cuddles #we can also put on my led lights and make them purple or blue #then we slowly fall asleep #yes its purely platonic no romanticness or sexualness #im in need of friends #asexual #i can also show you shiny stones #can we watch nimona?

reader waking up from a nightmare where aki dies and it's like a reoccurring thing, so when aki notices, he tries everything in his power to make sure she falls asleep and comforts her in any way that he can :,0

this is so sweet.... I had a thought about this before, because one of my headcanons is that aki has nightmares quite frequently because of his job as a devil hunter. so if you were to have regular nightmares, aki could really sympathize with that, and the both of you could help each other to sleep well.

the both of you would discuss your dreams every morning when you wake up... reassuring each other that they were just dreams, and it's okay, because you have each other. aki would promise you that he isn't going anywhere, while rubbing your back and holding you close, muttering softly into your ear, his voice smooth and comforting, it's okay, I'm right here. don't worry about anything, shh shh. don't cry. you would build the habit of always sleeping together because when you sleep holding one another, neither of you have as many bad dreams...

#sleeping buddies to lovers.... lol #your relationship starts out because you both notice that when you sleep together you don't have bad dreams #and neither of you wake up during the night either #you'll sleep nice and soundly holding each other #so in order to get some good sleep you start sleeping together every night (in a totally not romantic way)#which eventually evolves into a totally romantic way #into aki realizing how pretty you are when you fall asleep first #into aki slowly falling for you as you spend more and more time together #into aki confessing his love for you while he thinks you're asleep but you're actually not....#sounds like a cute rom-com story haha #but I love it #ask mags #aki <3

well!!! guess i won't sleep!!! thank you very much!!!

#. I'm slowly calming down but i was THIS close TWICE to having anxiety attacks #. and for what?#. if i told you i swearrr #. so it's like in the middle of the night right. and i need to pee.#. so i get up and go to the toilet #. and when i go back to my room i hear my (male) flatmates steps but like #. but not like normal steps but as if he's on tiptoes. amd i get scared for a sec so i quickly rush in and close the door #. and then nothing happens? i thought maybe he was gonna use the bathroom too which is the only thing that makes sense #. but i didn't hear no door no lock no steps #. so my brain decided to start hearing (imagining?) noises right outside my door #. sighhh #. sir has no one ever told you not to sneak around at night... especially not to sneak up AT NIGHT on a 'WOMAN'#. like come the fuck on #. thanks for the lost sleep #. bc now every time i try to fall asleep i hear sth in the hallway and go insane™️#personal #tw anxiety #tw trauma #r.txt

super junior is so special. what i'm about to say is not a hot take bc i've noticed it's not just me and this is a common feeling among fans. but super junior makes me so happy. and it's a different kind of happiness than what i get from other groups. they're my comfort zone, escape, serotonin booster, and what i search for when i'm bored or need a laugh. all at the same time. 💙

#...so i watched ss6...#i've seen THAT ment many times but it just hits different every time #they've become so important to me in what feels like a very short time #it's crazy to think it's already been about 3 years since i became a stan #time flew by so quickly #about to have a 'i'm 14 and this is deep' moment but #my experience with suju was like that john green quote: 'i fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly and then all at once'#it took me a while to properly start stanning but once i was in.. it happened so fast #ps. leeteuk deserves the world #no one cares iina #suju
