Hi! Could you write a Mattheo one, where itโs that time of the month, and youโre just really not feeling like facing the world.
poor thing โฐ m. riddle
summary: youโre on your period, and matthรฉoโs there to help you feel less awful.
pairing: bf!matthรฉo x reader
warnings: reader is implied to be afab, mentions of reader having their period, discussion of period-related symptoms, nothing else really???
note: hello!! thank you so much for the request!! iโm still trying to find my groove with writing, but i hope i did your prompt some justice :โ) also pretend that boys can in fact enter the girls dorms in this universe lmfao

โarenโt you getting up for potions?โ
when you roll over, you see pansy watching you from the doorway. sheโs dressed and ready for the day - book bag slung carefully across her body. she studies you with something akin to concern; awaiting your response with perfect, furrowed brows.
with a quiet sigh, you push yourself into a half-sitting position. โi donโt think so. i got my period last night and i feel absolutely horrid.โ
โwant me to tell riddle? iโm sure heโs looking for an excuse to skip anywayโ
you roll your eyes fondly. โheโs already missed too many lessons this year - let him figure it out on his own time, yeah?โ
pansy shrugs. โfine. hope you feel better.โ
you groan, flopping none-too-gracefully back on your pillow. โme too.โ
when pansy leaves, you take a few moments to savour the silence. it does little to ease the uncomfortable ache in your abdomen, but itโs quiet enough that you can almost pretend your head hasnโt been throbbing since the second you opened your eyes.
eventually, you snuggle back under your thick quilt, resigned to sleeping away your misery. it doesnโt take long for your fatigue to take over, pushing you steadily towards the edge of unconsciousness.
youโre nearly asleep, when you hear a sharp knock at the dormitory door. your brows tug downwards in confusion. with a quiet groan, you drag yourself out of bed. the floors are shockingly cold against your bare feet, and you curse quietly under your breath as you approach the door.
when you tug it open, youโre pleasantly surprised to see your boyfriends handsome face. although he should be in class, you can hardly fight the grin that tugs at your lips. โyou are not supposed to be here.โ
matthรฉo quirks an eyebrow, sporting a smirk you know all too well. โshall i see myself out then?โ
you roll your eyes fondly. โno.โ
โdidnโt think so.โ he lets himself in, kicking the door shut behind him. โdo you wanna lay down?โ
โmerlin - more than anything.โ
he tugs you gently towards him, pressing his lips against your forehead in a chaste kiss. โi figured as much.โ he murmurs the words against your skin, punctuating them with another kiss. when he pulls away, he nudges you gently towards the bed. โhow are you feeling?โ
โawful.โ
โcramps?โ he shrugs off a few layers of clothing, before tugging back your quilt and laying on the bed.
with a gentle little tug, youโre falling into the empty space beside him. โmy entire body justโฆ aches.โ with a defeated sigh, you drop your head on his chest.
matthรฉo hums softly, stroking a gentle hand up and down the length of your spine. โpoor thing.โ
โtell me about it.โ
with a quiet little laugh, he tilts your head up towards his own. โdo you think youโll survive?โ
โi really might not, thรฉo. this might be it for me.โ
matthรฉo rolls his eyes, but he wears a fond little smile that gives him away. โyouโre ridiculous.โ
โi am not!โ your lips turn downwards in an involuntary pout. โit hurts.โ
โi know, sweetheart.โ he closes the small gap between you, kissing away your feeble little frown. โwhy donโt you try and get some rest, hm?โ
โyouโll stay?โ
he kisses you again - longer this time, and you swear youโre feeling better already. โโm not going anywhere.โ

now having watched the entirety of OFMD S1 and S2 multiple times, one place that never fails to take me out at the knees is the audience finding out that Edโs mother was in service in the very same episode that he goes to a fancy rich person party where Stedeโwho is himself impossibly wealthy landed gentryโintentionally sides with the servants and his lowborn crew.
Stede slipping away from all the posturing and sniping to hang out with Frenchie โwho was in service for a minuteโ. Stede who is more excited to meet and collude with Abshire than to talk to a single rich person from his own world. Yes, Stede burns all the rich people alive for being cruel to Ed and thatโs very charming of him! But every rewatch, the thought of baby Ed growing up to find the kind of gentleman he always hated and envied embodied in someone who would take his side every time just knocks me flat. Ed sought out an avatar of everything he longed for (yet wanted to destroy) and accidentally discovered a lonely oddball who wanted him more than any of the rest of it. โI found the kind of person I envisioned as my bitterest rival and he smiled in recognition of a kindred soul only to swear heโd make all my most ridiculous and insignificant fantasies come trueโ is just so!!!!!!!!!
โthe crew is my family nowโ and โpeasants marry for loveโ and marmalade with a flourish of twine and Ed on the verge of tears finding Stede hiding outside the party agreeing with Frenchie about the absurdity of spoon politics. my god my god my GOD!

When I first saw efellana_illustrations beautiful, whimsical artwork, I knew I needed to see Elain in their style. They were so wonderful to work with, and Iโm so happy with how this piece turned out๐ I think that this poem by Mary Oliver goes so well with this artwork, and Elain as a character in general, so I had to include it. Personally, I think Elain deserves to spend more time frolicking through the woods, getting up to all sorts of witchy business, talking with the birds, and gazing into mysterious golden orbs.
