Ghost: ...
Ghost: Want to know what I really did?
Soap: (immediately interested)
Soap: Yeah!
Ghost: (pulls out his phone)
Ghost: (shows picture of him having someone cuddled up next to him, both under a blanket, two switches in hand, both on the Stardew Valley logo screen)
Soap: (his smile falls immediately)
Soap: Whâ
Ghost: I played Stardew Valley with the missus.

Ghost: Planted crops, went to the mines...

Soap: (stunned silence)
Ghost: Upgraded the house for the missus, made some town friends... (screenshots of more gameplay)
Soap: Waitâ
Ghost: Even fishing. (shows a picture of him catching a legendary fish)
Ghost: The missus doesn't like fishing. (clicks his tongue) Caught them all though. (nods to himself)
Ghost: (smirks) Want to know why I'm telling you this?
Soap: (still stunned, but nods)
Ghost: Because nobody will believe you.
Ghost: (starts deleting all pictures in front of Soap)
Soap: (pained gasp)
Soap: Ye monster.

DARK DEVOTION || Void Stiles 'Teen Wolf'
Pairing â Void Stiles x gender neutral reader
Summary â A love story written in blood and whispers. Void courts you in his own twisted way and you like it.
Memo âI am currently half awake and I refuse to go to sleep so boredom prompted me to write this.
Word Count â1050
Warnings â You're arguably as insane as Void. Dark Themes, Blood/Gore, Possessiveness/Obsessive Behaviour, Murder/Death (implied killings), Mild Body Horror (descriptions of blood and injuries), Stalking/Watching.
The first time it happens, you donât think much of it.
You step outside one morning, the world still wrapped in the quiet hush of dawn. The air is crisp, the sky painted with the soft hues of early sunrise. Then, your eyes fall to the ground.
A gift.
A crow, its throat slit cleanly, feathers still damp with fresh blood. Its wings are splayed open, and nestled between them is a single white flowerâdelicate, untouched by the violence surrounding it.
Something in your chest tightens. Not in fear. Not in disgust. But in something else.
You kneel, fingertips grazing the petals. The stark contrast between death and beauty is... intentional. A deliberate display.
A courtship.
And thereâs only one creature twisted enough to offer it to you.
You should be terrified. You should scream, recoil, run. But instead, you pluck the flower from the corpse and twirl it between your fingers.
When you glance up, you arenât surprised to see him watching from the treeline.
Void.
The thing wearing Stilesâ face.
He smirks when your eyes meet. A sharp, knowing thing. His head tilts, dark eyes gleaming with satisfaction.
You say nothing. Neither does he. But in that silence, something shifts.
And the game begins.
The next offering comes two nights later.
You return home late, the weight of exhaustion pressing against your shoulders. But when you step inside, you freeze.
A velvet box rests on your kitchen counter. No note, no explanation.
You know better than to open it. You do.
And yet, your fingers move before your mind can stop them.
The lid lifts with an eerie sort of grace, revealing a heart insideâdark, wet, and still warm.
Your stomach doesnât churn. Your hands donât tremble. You stare for a long moment before exhaling a slow breath.
"This is getting dramatic," you murmur.
A chuckle ghosts over your shoulder. You donât jump.
"Did you think Iâd be subtle?" Voidâs voice is a velvet whisper, coiling around you like smoke. "I am trying to woo you, after all."
You close the box and turn to face him. He leans lazily against the doorway, all sharp smirks and dark amusement.
"Woo me," you repeat, deadpan. "With body parts?"
Void pushes off the frame, stepping closer. "They werenât yours," he points out. "Shouldnât that count for something?"
You hold his gaze, unflinching. His eyes are endless, drowning pools of black.
Slowly, you place the flower he gave you the other day behind your ear.
His smirk falters. Just for a fraction of a second. But you see it.
Then, his grin returns, sharper than before.
"Oh," he breathes. "You do understand."
After that, the gifts escalate.
You wake to whispers in the night, cold fingers brushing over your skin before vanishing like mist. A shadow lingers just beyond your vision, moving when you move, watching when you sleep.
A blade, elegant and wickedly sharp, appears on your pillow one morning. Its hilt is carved with symbols you donât recognize, its edge stained faintly with something dark.
"I made it for you," Void hums when you confront him later that night.
"You made me a weapon?"
"You deserve something beautiful," he replies smoothly. "Something deadly."
His fingers brush your wrist, and the room tilts for half a second. Not physically. Not really. But thereâs a pullâsomething unnatural, something his.
"Do you like it?" he asks, voice soft but dangerous.
You turn the blade in your grip, watching how the light catches on the metal.
And then you smile.
Void inhales sharply. His pupils blow wide.
"Youâre enjoying this," he realizes.
You lift a brow. "And youâre not?"
His answering grin is feral.
You donât find the next offering. It finds you.
One evening, as you step out of your usual coffee shop, someone stumbles in front of you. A man, pale and shaking, his shirt stained with blood.
"Hâhelp me," he rasps.
Your eyes flicker down. A deep gash runs along his abdomen, fresh and brutal.
Your pulse remains steady.
A dark chuckle echoes nearby, and Void emerges from the alley, hands in his pockets.
"He hurt you once, didnât he?" he muses, tilting his head at the man. "Called you a slur. Pushed you at a bar. Thought I forgot?"
The man trembles violently, eyes darting between you and the monster in Stilesâ skin.
You exhale through your nose, tilting your head. "This is a bit much, even for you."
Void pouts. "You wound me."
Your gaze shifts to the man, who is on the verge of collapse. You donât feel sorry for him, not really.
But you do feel something.
Something close to intrigue.
You step forward, slow and deliberate, and crouch in front of the bleeding man. He flinches.
Then, ever so gently, you press your fingers to his wound.
He whimpers in pain.
Void lets out a breath that sounds like a growl.
"Youâre insane," the man chokes out.
You smile at him. Then glance back at Void.
"You didnât kill him yet," you muse. "Why?"
Void crouches beside you, resting his chin on your shoulder. His breath ghosts against your ear.
"Because I wanted to share."
You donât move for a long moment.
Then, slowly, you stand.
Void follows your lead, dark eyes never leaving yours.
And without another word, you step aside.
An invitation.
Voidâs smirk is wicked. His fingers graze your wrist as he passes, a silent thank you.
The man screams.
And you donât look away.
Void presses you against the wall that night, his hands caging you in. His touch is cool, unnatural, but you donât pull away.
"Say something," he murmurs, voice sharp with frustration. "Tell me to stop. Tell me you hate this."
You meet his gaze, unflinching. "I wonât."
His fingers tighten on your jaw, nails biting into your skin. "Why not?"
You smirk, tilting your head just enough to brush your lips against his.
"Because I like it."
Void stills. Then, his lips curl into something almost hungry.
"Oh," he breathes, amusement laced with something far darker. "I knew I picked the right one."
And when he kisses you, itâs possessive. A promise.
Youâre his now.
You always were.
much better footage of the haka that shut down parliament today
Ghost: Hard dom (but also enjoys the occasional submission⊠wonât tell u tho :p)
Price: Soft dom⊠this man loves taking care of you but also reminding you of whoâs in charge
Gaz: He donât give a fuck as long as you both feel good
Soap: Switch (leaning depending on his mood or how work was)
do not pet (he bites)

Soap is lowkey way scarier than Ghost
Heâs not usually scary because he doesnât try to be. Soap is very charming and boisterous and has a great sense of humor.
But I saw someone point out how Soapâs eyes are just on the side of too blue if he wants them to be. Too intent. Have you seen the way he looks at graves? Have you seen the way his ADHD ass focuses with that wide-eyed, predator-like intensity?
Soap isnât a bad guy, he wants to fight for whatâs right. But he likes the fight. He has fun. I sincerely believe this man has a very well-hidden and controlled sadistic side.
Heâs a demolitions expert. Heâs incredibly smart and incredibly destructive. I feel like people headcanon him as being the most effeminate or happy-go-lucky of the 141, which he very well may be! But I also think he is the most batshit insane and quite possibly the last person Iâd want to cross.
this is how I will be imagining ghost from now on đ«Ą

we talk a lot about the Jedi being the only group of people in the galaxy who consistently see the clones as people. but what if it goes both ways. if clones are little more than droids, then Jedi are the knights out of fairy tales and romance novels. the galaxy's perceptions and preconceptions are much like anakin's in tpm. the jedi are immortable infallible unkillable. they are paragons of virtue and light and intelligence. they are not people so much as concepts. legends. superheroes.
these people are as removed from the Jedi as they are from the clones. maybe even more so. the clones work with the Jedi every day. the clones see them make mistakes. simple human* errors. they see them mourn and rage and laugh. they see them try. so hard. they see them fail. they see them fall.
their Jedi are people. and the clones love them all the more for it.

Pairing: Ghoap x fem!plus size!Reader
Word Count: 2.7k
Summary: You go to Scotland with high hopes for your future. After all, you have the bakery you always dreamed of and a whole new life to live, but after a chance meeting with a very pretty man and his service dog, a new element is thrown into that life that you never saw coming.
Johnny stirs awake with a grunt as Rileyâs wet nose bumps against his hand. Thereâs a very slight ache behind his eyes - the kind that marks an oncoming migraine. He groans, not wanting to open them to the invasive sunlight that will inevitably make it worse. Then again, thatâs the only way he can get any preemptive pain medication in his system. He still makes a noise of complaint when he finally peels back his lids.
âFeelinâ alright?â Simon rumbles, setting a glass on the nightstand along with two little pain pills. How heâs able to tell what kind of morning Johnnyâs having before even he can is a true mystery.
Johnny just grunts back, rolling onto his side to grab his hearing aid out of the nightstand drawer. Normally he wouldnât bother with putting it on with a possibly impending migraine, but he figures he can chance it. Theyâve been lessening in the past few months. Somewhat.
âPlans for the day?â Simon asks as he pulls on one of his work shirts. âUp for coming to the shop?â
The little clock beside him blinks out five in the morning. Even after being retired for nearly three years, neither of them can manage to sleep in late whether they have to be up or not. âGonnae take Riley out tae the park. Might drop by.â
âDonât push yourself too hard.â
âMe? Never.â Johnny flashes his husband a grin.
Simon just rolls his eyes in response. The rest of their morning is quiet, as most are when Johnny isnât up for talking. Itâs a comfortable silence, one they both came to appreciate long before this current chapter in their lives. One that developed on cots and in tents and the wreckage of war zones.
Itâs just how they are.
Being essentially a stay at home husband was not how Johnny pictures his thirties. Being disabled was not how he pictured⊠any of it. He thought heâd be up for Lieutenant by now. Thought Simon would have taken over as Captain of the 141. Heâs learned not to be bitter about it (with Simonâs and some professional help).
He canât complain too much. Heâs alive. He gets to be with his family. With Simon. With Riley in this run down dog park throwing around a ball that she dutifully chases and brings back with the pride of a great hunter bringing home a prized beast. He gets to go home to a place that is truly his, with a big comfortable bed and a man he fought tooth and nail to fill it with.
Itâs a small life but heâs learned that small doesnât mean unimportant.
Christ who knew turning thirty would make him a damn philosopher.
âAlright, lassie, time tae go.â Johnny crouches to shuffle Rileyâs harness and leash back on. He knees pop and his back protests the movement. Itâs a mercy that they were able to get such a lovely service dog. Sheâs such a good pup, always at the ready and happy to obey.
Except now, as she begins to tug insistently at her leash with her full weight - or at least as much as she can use without hurting him. It isnât like her. He clicks and commands her to heel. She tugs harder and whines. It isnât an alert that he knows - maybe itâs one that they donât need often? He lets go of the leash, following as she quickly jogs away.
He circles a few bushes in pursuit, coming to face one of the large trees on the outer edge of the park. Thereâs a girl leaned on it, breath coming in and out heavy. She starts to slip forward a bit before Riley props her up, stabalizing the girl in much the same way she does Johnny when he gets faint. He speeds up his steps, holding out his hands on either side of the girl in case she falls.
âArenât you a good girl?â She coos at Riley quietly. American. Huh. He watches the girl dig in her pocket for something, eventually pulling out what looks like a to-go salt packet. She tears it open, throwing it back like a shot.
âYe aâright?â Johnny asks, tilting his head.
She nods and takes a long, deep breath. âSorry, I have aâŠthing.â She waves her hand around her head, straightening up and turning to face him. Sheâs cute. Insanely cute - with big eyes and soft body. Lovely curves from head to toe. Johnny may be a married man but that doesnât mean he canât apprecaite a little, right?
âDonnae apologize. Iâve got a thing, tae.â Johnny grins and points to the scar on his head where his hair never quite grew back.
She gives him a soft smile. âWell, youâve got a good dog. Iâve never had one alert like that.â
âAye, she was tugginâ hard. Mustâve been a pretty bad spell. Ye sure yer okay?â
âYeah.â Her braided hair falls about her shoulders. âJust didnât eat enough before I went for a walk and then I stood up too quicklyâŠâ
âOch, standinâ, my age old enemy.â
She giggles quietly, pressing her fingers over her lips to cover them. Itâs pretty, the way her round face gets even rounder with her smile.
âJohnny.â He holds out a hand, flashing his most charming smile he can muster. Itâs a little more tired these days - the corners of his eyes crinkle more than they used to. The girl takes his hand, so soft and warm and small in his, and breathes out her name quietly. Almost bashfully. So cute.
Unfortunately his phone chimes, interrupting the moment before he can ask her more.
âI should be off, ye sure yer okay?â Johnny lets his eyes take over her, not just her body but also checking that she is, in fact, okay. Her eyes seem clear, stance steady, not too pale or too flushed. Heâs no medic but heâd say sheâs going to be fine.
âYeah, yeah. Thank you.â She crouches slightly, slowly moving to look at Riley. âAnd thank *you* maâam.â
Johnny watches her walk away, pausing to make sure she doesnât stumble. Heâs not sure what compels him - maybe itâs the solider in him still wanting to watch for the safety of those around him. It definitely doesnât have anything to do with the way her wide hips sway as she makes her way down the path.
Johnny canât stop smiling as he makes his way to the shop for some reason. It wasnât even all that impressive of an interaction, but something about it really warmed his heart. Maybe it was just meeting someone else with a *thing*, as she put it. There really isnât anyone else in his life who needs as much support as him - certainly not many adults in this small town who need assistance on the whole. Itâs rare to meet someone who gets it, however briefly.
âWotâs got you so chipper?â Simon quirks an eyebrow as he enters.
The door bell chimes above his head. Riley trots off from Johnnyâs side to her designated bed in the corner of the shop. Away from the food but close enough that she could easily get wherever Johnny might be. One of the regulars even made a plaque for her that his Da screwed on the wall.
âMet a nice lass today in the park.â He shrugs. âPretty little thing.â
âAh, your great-auntâs prayinâ finally do you in?â Simon chuckles as Johnny ducks behind the counter to rest a hand on the small of his back.
âAye, finally realized I should turn tae a life of lassies anâ biarns. Yer great arse has no power over me now, foul demon.â
Simon chuckles. Thereâs something about it that always does Johnny in. A low rumble he can feel in his very bones. âGlad to see youâre feelinâ better.â
Johnny hums. âThe warm weather helps, fer whatever reason.â
âGood. You see the shop across the street?â
Johnny turns, looking out their front window. The construction has been going on for a few months - various workers milling in and out. Neither he nor Simon could figure out what they were putting in until small signs were put across the windows announcing the new location to be The Honey Bun Bakery with an opening date at the bottom. A bit cutesy for their taste, but a new bakery in town is exciting. The last one closed because the owners got too old and had no one to take over. His mother has been buzzing about it since the signs were first put up.
The biggest mystery is the owner. No one has seen hide nor hair of whoever owns the place. There were movers taking things into the attached apartment on the floor above about a week ago, but no one has actually seen the resident. He or she is a ghost. Gossip has filled the town, of course. Especially among the older folks. Thatâs another thing his mother has been fluttering about.
âAlready opening day, eh?â
âYep.â
âWe should check it out, then.â
Simon hums. âWeâll go after the morning rush if youâre up for it, hm?â
âAye.â
âJohnny?â The shorter man jumps as Simonâs hands rest on his waist. Heâll never get over the intensity of Simonâs eyes. For a man who keeps his emotions locked in the deepest parts of him, he sure carries a lot of it in those pretty dark pools.
âAye?â The word comes out breathier than he means it to.
âYou look sunburnt.â
Johnny barks out a laugh, half-heartedly shoving his husband off. âAnâ here I thought ye were gonnae say somethinâ romantic.â
âYou know me better than that.â Simonâs eyes crinkle in the corners with a smile as he pulls the mask to the side, pressing a kiss to Johnnyâs lips.
You may or may not have slept exactly 3.46 hours last night. Itâs not your fault, really. Todayâs your first day. Your first real day of your new life and your new career. Years of prayers and months upon months of planning, waiting, crying, and straining have finally come to a head. Youâre in Scotland, your bakery is constructed, all thatâs left is to actually bake.
And sell, of course, but you try your hardest not to think about that part or you might throw up. Again.
You curse the time it takes you to shower, carefully acclimating to the heat of the shower and sitting in your little plastic seat. You want to run, to act like the a whirlwind you feel in your head. You canât, though, itâs not worth possibly ruining the most important day in your life just because you were impatient and passed out. At least you finally got your medication situation figured out before coming over here - the perfect little cocktail sitting on the corner of your dresser.
Your hands tremble a bit as you open up one of the cardboard boxes still sitting in your living room. Youâd picked out a special outfit for your first real day of owning your own business months ago - one you made sure would be here with you on opening day. Really, it isnât anything special - just a pair of black gingham trousers and a black cotton t-shirt along with your well-loved non-slip shoes. Itâs yours though, and it perfectly matches your specially embroidered apron with your little logo on the front, center pocket. Itâs yours. All yours. Itâs a reminder that youâre here. You made it out.
You had already done a good bit of the work the day before - putting together your doughs and shaping up pastries to proof overnight in the fridge. Now all thatâs left is to actually bake them and put them out. The smell wafts through the building, covering any left over scents of paint or construction work. It feels real. Grounding. Youâre here and you can feel, smell, even taste it.
You expected a few customers. Not much. High hopes and low expectations. Just a couple people here and there that noticed the new shop coming to town and were curious about it. Youâd advertised as well as you could from across the pond. Maybe a little rush around the late morning when people are usually out for brunch and shopping at most.
You did not expect a constant stream from the moment you propped the door open until the late afternoon. These Scots run you fucking ragged. A constant flux of in and out, all day. All them wanting to chat, as well.
âOh, American! Whit part are ye from?â
âYer sae young! Just a wee bairn!â
âSo nice havinâ a bakery again, aye?â
âUrr ye merrit? Ah hae a son-â
You regret not buying that coffee machine for the back room.
Just as youâre stacking display baskets to take to the back to wash up the door chimes behind you. Here you thought you were finally done for the day. You sigh. âSorry, hun, Iâm pretty much out of everyth-â
âYe!â You whirl, only to meet those same bright blue eyes from the day before.
âJohnny!â You squeak, eyes wide.
âWhy dinnae ye mention the shop?â The man grins wide - the same as the day before. Sparkling and bright and far, far more pretty than youâre prepared to deal with. His hair is neater today - not ragged from exercise with his service dog who currently sits politely by his feet.
âAh, was little light headed. Wasnât thinking straight.â You shrug.
âSpeaking of, howâs yer thing?â He waves a hand about his head the same way you did the day prior. Itâs cute how invested he seems to be, genuinely asking if youâre alright. The man looming behind him watches silently.
âOh, Iâm alright. Finer than the hair on a toad split four ways.â You grin.
The man behind him furrows his brow slightly at the expression, but doesnât offer a word. Heâs tall. Wide too and dressed in all black with long sleeves despite the warm, spring weather. His hair is buzzed neatly. Thereâs a severity to him only emphasized by the scar splitting his brow and the small chip missing from his ear.
âOch, this is my husband Simon.â Jihnny steps to the side and gestures toward the brooding figure behind him. âWe own the butcher shop across the street.â
âNo shit!â You canât help but smile ear to ear, holding out your hand. They seem so sweet. âWell, itâs very nice to meet you. Glad to have such nice neighbors.â
Simon shakes your hand a single time curtly before stepping back behind Johnny. The severity in his dark eyes softens whenever he glances toward the other man. Cute.
âWe wanted tae come see whit yeâve got.â
âI havenât got much leftâŠâ You tap your chin and rest a hand on your hip, wanting to rectify the dip of disappointment in the pretty manâs brow. âOh! Iâve got a sourdough in the back. One sec!â
You skitter off, paying little mind to how silly you must look practically prancing toward the back room. Originally, youâd planned to save this for yourself tonight as a job-well-done treat but it feels more gratifying to give it to your new neighbors. Hopefully they like it - maybe you can finally make some friends for the first time in⊠ever really.
âHow much fer it?â
âOn the house. Weâre neighbors now, yeah? First ones free.â You grin, wrapping it extra nicely in some brown paper packaging.
âThank ye, bonnie.â Johnny cradles the loaf so carefully you almost laugh - as if heâs afraid too much pressure will completely ruin it. Like heâs holding a precious treasure. âWeâll leave ye alone tae close but weâll see ye around, aye?â
âCourse.â You nod, waving after them and they exit. You can see the big blonde, Simon, turn to Johnny to say something but itâs impossible to hear them or tell from their lips as they cross the street back to their butcher shop. They link hands, fingers intertwining with long practiced grace, and something in your throat constricts.
Whatâs it like, you wonder, to have a love like that?
Surprisingly, I got 24 đ€đ

I think itâs fun to think about the different ways the Bentley reacts to Azi and Crowley, and what relationship it might have with reader! Also I need something lighthearted and fluffy after season 2 :(
Thanks!
of course! my pleasure I love fluffy pieces like this đ
Crowley x reader x Aziraphale (good omens)
âDonât be afraid,â encourages Aziraphale, âit really is a lovely little car.â
âMy car is neither lovely nor little. It is a classic, it is worth over half a million by now, and it is made for terrorising pensioners on A-roads,â Crowley snaps back.Â
âAlright, Iâm getting out ââ you begin, but as you go to move youâre suddenly met with both of them begging you not to and apologising.Â
Youâve had your eye on driving the Bentley for a while, but sort of in the same way someone walking past a rottweiler in a front garden every day might have an idea to reach over and give it a scratch. Youâre fascinated but aware that it could be very dangerous.Â
Crowley loves you but wasnât too sure about the idea of letting a human drive his prized possession. Luckily Aziraphale is very good at just telling Crowley what is going to happen rather than asking his permission; for domestic matters like these, anyway. So your devil reluctantly agreed on the condition he was there to supervise - and Aziraphale didnât want to miss the fun.Â
Besides, in a more practical sense, what if both of them were unable to drive and you needed to get them somewhere? Crowley refuses to get in your Hyundai. There needs to be a backup plan.Â
âJust be gentle,â Aziraphale suggests.Â
âBut assertive,â Crowley adds quickly.Â
âAlright. Gentle but assertive. Just like in bed,â you mutter. Crowley snorts and Aziraphale makes a little noise in the back of his throat.Â
You turn on the ignition, listening to the way it starts immediately. Firmly grip the wheel in one hand and the gearstick in the other.Â
âPlease be kind to me,â you mutter to the dashboard, âI think youâre a gorgeous, gorgeous car, and I want us to enjoy being around each other. Plus Iâll make sure to get you that nice wax Crowley only buys as a treat.â
The engine revs a little on its own, and you find first gear is engaged automatically.Â
âOh!â you beam as your favourite band begins to play on the radio, âYou're right Aziraphale, this is lovely.â
Crowley is left sputtering with indignation as you pull away from the kerb.Â

Consequences don't just fall to the perpetrators. You learn a new name.
Phew! I was sweating over this one, I hope you all enjoy it. One more chapter to go before this story is wrapped up. All my love, appreciation, gratitude, and smooches to my two lovely betas, Soleil and SentientCave.

Thinking-
about a Pacific Rim AU where Simon and Johnny are in love and together, but not drift compatible. Theyâre both right side pilots, stronger and more dominant over their left side counterparts, and in a Jaeger, they just donât work.
Itâs all well and good, until Simonâs co-pilot of almost five years is killed. All that work, all that time⊠wasted.
Simon could kill him himself, if some poor sod didnât already do the job.
Their captain starts the process of finding a replacement, cranking through cadets in an attempt to find a very specific person, a very specific brain capable of completing a neural bridge with Simon, until they finally stumble upon you.
Johnny is thrilled. He reads your file, pours over your record, drinks up every detail available, all before ever laying eyes on you. He finds your social media, your hometown paper, education record, service record, the works. Youâre a shiny, smart, capable yang to Simonâs yin. Youâll be perfect.
A perfect match, he thinks. Thank fucking Christ.
ButâŠ
Simon instantly dislikes you. Youâre too bright, sunshine abrasive in the dark of his life. Heâs dismissive and stand offish, irritated by the fact command did not allow him and Johnny to even try drifting again, instead choosing to place him with a complete stranger shipped to his doorstep from halfway around the world. He doesnât want you crawling around in his brain. He doesnât want his memories to become yours, and vice versa. He doesnât want you in his- their life. He wants you to fuck off.
It beats you down. You werenât sure what to expect, but it wasnât this. A co-pilot who canât even look at you? Who dismisses you at every turn? Itâs awful. You had heard stories about the Ghost, sure⊠but didnât expect him to be so resistant to a new partner.
Itâs so awful, you get pissed drunk one night. End up in a dark dive bar, licking your wounds and moaning to yourself about how all your training, all your work, is going to be for nothing. Youâre going to fail. Youâll never pilot a Jaeger, because your co-pilot is too resistant, too controlling, wonât even try. It sucks.
So, okay. You have a little pity party. You try to drown your sorrows, and the guy next to you is very, very sympathetic. He listens to you cry about it, empathizes with your struggle and tries to commiserate with you.
It helps, of course, that heâs gorgeous. Blue eyes, golden like a god, long strands of mohawk perfectly framing his sheer bone structure.
âDinnae worry, hen. âM sure heâll come around. Heâs just got to get to know ye sâmore.â He coos, pressing a blazing hot thigh against yours with a wink. You lean a little bit into him, let him trace his fingertips down your spine, across your neck.
Youâre so distracted, you donât know the mass of a man wearing a mask, sitting in the shadows. Watching.
w: hinted dark themes, dark romance?
Victorian AU where Reader moves to the secluded manor in the countryside as Lord Simon Riley has hired her to be a caretaker of the house. She barely sees him around, an odd yet respected man, but the cheery gardener Johnny keeps her company most of the time, walking by her side through the lawn swallowed by thick mist.Â
As the winter approaches, she realizes there are no other living souls in the house than her, the Lord and Johnny. Some lies had been told and she started to doubt Simonâs true intentions of her stay here.
Something about that old manor is unsettling. Or rather, its residents.
Working on a longer piece, just need your patience. If you're interested.đđ
