'We'll see,' Sam said with a smirk. 'Go and order two milkshakes, I don't care what flavour, and you can even keep your clothing in order for now. I'll tell you the rest when you get back.' Sam waited patiently, allowing her heart rate to settle after her previous ordeal, though the thought of what she was going to ma...
Beyond the Wall In the shroud of darkness, Chihiro and Ako struggle to pull Yoichi's sled through the blizzard as they follow the Child. Heavy snow blows around them as they struggle to make their way through the darkness of the night.  Chihiro looks at Yoichi, the omega still in the warg state with his eyes whit...
“Well?” the shortest in the group pressed. Danny hesitated. It wasn't like he didn't want to talk to the League, or probably just Batman from the sound of it, especially since he had been invited and they went through the trouble of finding him. But… he really didn’t want to leave Amity. Especially not for the League....
***** Real estate viewing proved to be costly. My wife Kathy and I have been looking for a new house for months; we scanned the Sunday real estate section every week for our dream house. Nothing peaked our interest; most new houses are large enough but built so close together that you could shake hands with your neig...
Harry turns over on his back, using his arms to prop himself up, with his fingers digging into the dirt, just in time to stare directly at the lit end of Not Sirius’s wand.    The small glow floods the area, and for a flicking second, there’s something faltering about Not Sirius’s expression, immediately replaced ...
Klaus collapsed into his chair at the dinner table, he felt dead. So very tired from the effects of the weed wearing off and from being drunk. He was surprised he hadn't been sick yet, that would probably come after this meal. The meal in question was, pasta. Nothing too bad, there were mushrooms mixed through it tho...
Bruce isn’t surprised to find Clark waiting for him in the cave, but that doesn’t make him any less pissed off about it, either. “Stalking me now, Clark?” he asks, slamming the car door shut with more force than he needs to. Petty, yes, but it's been a long night, a League mission that went south followed by several ...
Going back to class made Clarke happy. But not as happy as walking there hand in hand with Lexa. The blonde couldn't stop smiling. She was literally glowing. Lexa blushed shyly from time to time and Clarke found it adorable and endearing. The blonde couldn't be more in love. They kissed briefly in front of the lock...
The problem with having a doctor for a parent is that hiding injuries or illness is much more difficult. Taehyung already knew this, but he never thought this would be something he would have to worry about. He tells his fathers everything already, so he didn’t think he would ever have to hide something like that from ...
“Ah… she finally returns” Alex says as I walk into the room. “Yeah” I nod. “After I met Rhian I went for a walk.” “How’d it go?” Alex asks with a small frown. “You know, it’s a break-up” I say with a shrug. “It’s not exactly going to go smoothly.” “Was she angry?” “No Alex, she was jumping for joy” I reply sarcast...
So many days I spent on the beach in front of my little cabin, my eyes searching the sea for her. I knew what I had seen, the beautiful naked creature on the beach was not of land. My simple gift had caused her eyes to light in pleasure, her smile was a sight for an old man like me to behold. Yes, just a foolish and ...
Gotta Take a Bow, Do it Your Way (It’s Okay)             Keith has rules about dating. Keith, in fact, has rules regarding most aspects of his life. He likes order, organization and structure. He has a collection of color-coded sticky notes lined up on his kitchen counter. He can spend literal hours in office-supply...
FOUR - ADOA The ride to Mystacor had been fun, Micah playing a bunch of oldies while doing a horrible attempt to sing along. Bow and Glimmer had happily joined while Frosta just watched the scenery from the window. Micah had rented a van so we could all travel together, and I was only a bit bummed that Scorpia and ...
    ✪★ Ch. 6 ★✪   Dusk is approaching when James determines that nothing more can be gained from continued surveillance of the hospital.  Silently, Steve is relieved. He’s never been particularly great at ‘hurry-up-and-wait’, and he suspects that his inability to sit with the same level of uncanny stillness that J...
     Castiel's neighbour is singing again and it takes all of his willpower not to laugh.    It’s not that he's a bad singer, quite the opposite, in fact, he's brilliant. It’s just that without fail every time the man steps into the shower he will power belt of all things: Disney songs. Castiel has never been o...
“Yuwen Yong’s people called it a “cardiac event,” I’m still waiting on confirmation from the hospital,” Bian Yanmei said, frantically texting in the seat next to Yan Wushi, Yu Shengyan merging into traffic. Yan Wushi had been on and off the phone since well before sunrise, suppressing misinformation, having his con...
- Finally, after a full weekend of preparation, a full day of celebration, and a night of dancing, Kara slowly makes her way back to the head table to breathe. Alex and Kelly, looking stunningly beautiful, are swaying close together as the band plays one of the only slow songs of the night so far. Alex is whispering i...
Chapter 24. Alex. (May 2001) Alex was a member of a Russian trade delegation touring the region looking at various local companies; hubby's being one of them. The delegation was staying at one of the hotels in town and hubby, whose company was among the first to be visited, had arranged for us to meet Alex in the bar ...
Katsuki woke to a warm body moving under the covers—trailing dual temperature hands across his bare torso and sliding down his boxers. “Thought I told you to give me back my key.” The only answer Katsuki got was the feeling of wet heat enveloping his cock. He groaned quietly and reached under the covers to fist at sil...
L.Felix | X516.06.13 | Greed had a more practical method of transport which was nice. Felix enjoyed flying, but it was nice to take a car and keep his feet on the ground.  "So where are we going?" Felix asked curiously, his eyes looking for anything that might hint where they were heading. They were on a side ...
James tries not to think about it.    It’s a dangerous thought, at least for the present, and it’s a tricky one to shove down and forget about. Looking at their very young intruder is just like looking at a picture of himself at age fifteen. Except his green eyes. A feature that makes it even more difficult to ignore...
It will come as no surprise at this point in my story that I will state this: I like rooftops. ‘As you all know’ narrative device— Shut up. That doesn’t apply here. Not when I’m overlooking my adopted city from my own rooftop, the cold wind of early evening rustling my hair behind me after letting it loose as I gr...
It was the time of year for clothes shopping. Once winter set in and everyone realized how woefully unequipped they were to face the coming onslaught of snow and ice, they flocked to stores to restock on essentials. That, and of course, the holidays were coming. Stede needed a new pair of gloves, and he had promised Ma...
"Peter!" Yondu yelled from somewhere below deck, probably in the boarding port of the ravager ship. Peter scurried down to him, it didn't take long to find him. Peter had spent the last four years learning every crevice of this ship, he had even found a small bay, more like an empty space probably used to hide contrab...
“You’re working with Silas?” Elena asked, disbelief coloring her voice. Her dark brown eyes flicked between the two. “Bonnie, he killed Jeremy .” “‘Bonnie, he killed Jeremy,’” Silas mimicked, rolling his eyes. “Please. Do you even hear yourself? So whiny? So nasally? Save you fake moral outrage for someone who cares...
~^~ “Q.” The Quartermaster jumped as 007’s hand snaked out and caught his, despite the fact that the agent had been sitting on the couch and apparently focused on a tense, heated phone conversation with M and Q had been just walking by behind him. All 007 did then was tug Q forward by the wrist until he could deposi...
Killua sighed in appreciation as he gazed out the window of their personal room, the nighttime cityscape was glorious as always. Stars sparkled in the sky, and the beautiful marbles of not-so-distant alien planets hung in the inky expanse. The moon was a sparkling half circle, shining down upon the city that was a nigh...
In the beginning, there was life. Life that had begun shortly after the planets had been created due to the melding of atoms and molecules created during the “Big Bang”. Angels had been the first to take form, followed shortly by demons in the hellish realm. The angels were His children, and they did good deeds in...
Stratos’s Apartment, Siena - July 3rd, 1999   Rosalie Øllegaard was in a terribly good mood, all things considered.  The woman sauntered down the hall of the Siena flat humming softly to herself and thinking about the excitement of the previous day. She could feel the smooth silk of her short nightgown swish ba...
April 16th 2040     So far he's answered one quick call from North, telling her that he and Connor were at the DPD and they were okay, and to tell everyone not to worry. But Markus is worried. Not so much about the fallout, (fuck, there is going to be such a fallout,) but about Connor, who's sitting at Fowler's des...
The ride to the capitol was pleasant. Reinette traveled inside the carriage, of course, but Rose alternated between sitting on the driver’s bench with Mickey or alongside the carriage on Reinette’s mare, Ladybird. They paused each night in one of the villages as Reinette had refused to sleep in a tent or the carriage h...
    Finding the other side of the bed empty is extremely unlikely so when Diluc runs his hand on the right to feel only the cold mattress, his eyes immediately spring open.     It was very unlikely for Kaeya to be up so early, especially when he's in the middle semesters of pregnancy. Usually, he'd love to sleep i...
When morning came, Gilbert found himself anxious. He wasn’t entirely sure why, he and his brother both rarely experienced any sort of nervousness. As he got dressed, he scolded himself for not knowing the cause of this small dose of adrenaline, and scolding himself for feeling it at all.   With an impending sense of ...
Sandra is Different by Vanessa Evans Part 5 I arrived at the university's gym at the time agreed with Isla which was 30 minutes later than the previous week, and I had to wait a few minutes outside for her. I saw one guy come out carrying his kit bag and when he saw me he turned around and went back in. I wondered i...
Steve sits opposite you, a tender smirk manipulating his lips. He keeps averting his gaze whenever you try to catch him in the act of gawking, which only makes him smile harder. “I know you’re watching me Rogers,” you mutter draining your wine glass before standing up to pour yourself another. “Quit it.” Everyone else...
“Didja know glass eyes ain’t made o’ glass no more? It’s true!” Horus stands on the stage, tossing a little lump of something in the air and catching it. His hair is lank and blond and his one eye is blue, and his green jacket and red shirt are grubby and torn. He stops playing with the little item and holds it up; it...
Sandra is Different by Vanessa Evans Part 9 Wow, that exhibition hall was big but all the stalls and other 'things' were at one end leaving enough space for a football pitch. The place was buzzing with people running around, presumable getting themselves organised for the day and I was disappointed that I couldn't ...
For those who have followed Sandra's resort adventures, this story takes place before her public display at the hot tub, and certainly before her night-time tryst on beach beds. If you've not read other stories about Sandra at the resort, you might like "Barside", "Do You Trust Me?", and "Hot Tub Tantra Chair. "Hot Tub...
It is midnight after the trial, after retrieving yet another totem, after everything, and Hugo thinks he might be sick.  Too close, he thinks. Too close. Everything that’s happened, everything he’s been doing… and Donella was there. She saw him, she met his eyes—pretended she hadn’t known him, kept his cover, and y...
They still had some of Sakusa’s appointment time to kill after changing out of their overalls and back into their office-wear, so Atsumu suggested they use their plumbing money to catch some breakfast. Sakusa agreed, on the condition they returned to the coffee shop they’d gone to the day before. True to form, Sakusa ...
i   Greg has been reliably informed by a variety of people that he’s not that good at most things. His mother always told him he didn’t need to be a genius to be happy and his grandpa liked to agree because it was clear Greg was never going to do anything worth mentioning. What working at Waystar and becoming clos...
So there she was - only half awake, zip tied to her own balcony railing in the broad daylight of what turned out to be Monday morning, with her own phone attached to the railing, pointed with the camera right between her spread legs. Of course, this would be quite a situation to be in, however, Sandra's nakedness made ...
I don't want there to be anybody left out there, who doesn't know the look of my gaping cunt, I don't want to have friends or colleagues who don't know all the things I did, who don't know my complete destruction, my humiliation and how much it gets me off. Sandra sure was vocal about what she wanted, as she talked int...
He did not want to let go. Did not want to move away. Moving away, stopping kissing her, meant facing everything else. Seeing his ring on his finger, remembering Helen’s words, looking into another face that did not believe his curse would end their life.  It also meant looking into her eyes and accepting what he had...
Derek looked over worriedly at the motionless teenager sitting next to him in the Camaro. Stiles was silent. Stiles was never silent. There should be arm flailing, and the rapid bounce of words hitting his eardrums with relentless energy. Now there was nothing. Zilch. Nada. Stiles was silent.  Derek cleared his throat ...
He wakes up screaming. It was less than a year ago that he survived a beating that nearly killed him. His last few months in prison, freedom was so close. He was on high alert at all times, just wanting to make it out alive. He barely slept. Not that sleep had ever come easy locked up. They never turn off the lights ...
Tony was not sure how long he remained there on his knees - long enough for the tick on his back to act up and his legs to cramp up in protest. He also wasn’t one hundred percent sure as to how he had managed to get himself to the kitchen, but there he was, with a drink in hand next to the kitchen sink.  Tony sighe...
H.Jisung | X516.06.13 | It was beginning to get more and more difficult to stay awake. It seemed as though when one was awake, the rest were sleeping. It was a never ending fatigue that always lingered in every aspect. Physical. Mental. Emotional. What made it worse was that as much as Jisung wanted to spea...
“I promise that I’ll take really good care of Pess,” Trucy solemnly told him. “I’m sure you will,” Miles agreed. “How many cups of kibble at breakfast?” “We’ve already been over this,” she groaned, rolling her eyes. “You shouldn’t have brought it up,” Phoenix stage-whispered to his daughter. They were waiting just ...
“I shared all my dirty secrets, now it’s your turn.” Emily smirked over her whiskey, she was sat on the opposite end of the couch facing you with a devilish look in her eyes. You knew that starting a conversation like this would be a bad idea, especially with the amount of alcohol you had both drank. Asking Emily about...
Chapter 13 Lucky Latchkey Life Five managed a smile. He managed to scrape up enough effort from the bottom of the empty reservoir inside of him. He managed to turn exhaustion into effort, into energy, into enough bullshit patience to curl his mouth into some semblance of a grin. It was all so pointless and dumb, and...
While Oliver wanted to attempt to fix his relationship with Felicity right away, he knew he should give her space. He needed space himself and time to mull over all he had learned that day. In theory the day he got his memories back after two long months should have been filled with relief and celebration. Instead it ...
Loki is lying on a meadow, facedown, limbs sprawled outwards, blades of grass tickling his nose. He lifts his head, his gaze sweeping the landscape of the richest green stretching out towards the horizon, where the God of Thunder and Odin Allfather stand on the edge of a cliff. He recognizes the land in which once dwel...
Nino didn’t think that he could have been surprised anymore. The last week he had been on a rollercoaster, with figuring out the truth about Lila and breaking up with Alya to the events of today he was exhausted. Marinette had assured him that she didn’t need him to do anything until tomorrow, so he was hoping to distr...
‘’ Come on Ned.’’ Arya hits him with her practice sword before dancing away. Edric huffs once before getting back into his fighting stance. It had been weeks since his name day and they never spoke of what had happened. Allyria said he was being stubborn and stupid, ‘some misplaced sense of honor’ she called it. So Ar...
“You might be wondering why I’m here trying to talk to… Well, you.” Miyeon raises one of her eyebrows, before she smirks a little. Minho doesn’t let it affect him, a tight grip on the beer in his hands as he locks eyes with Miyeon, not letting any emotion show.   In the past years Minho’s learned how to annoy Miy...
Tim calmed down a little by the time they entered the sport center. Damian, along with Bruce, Talia and Ra's went to the changing rooms while the rest looked for seats. Because of Barbara they took the seats in the first row, for which Dick was really happy, but Jason and Tim couldn't help but make a face. Damian was c...
The low rumble of the train is peaceful. The heavy vibrations and even the occasional metallic whine as something scrapes against the track as distance closes between them and Cheongju. She'd see her family again, and that's a warm thought. They'd get to meet Ryujin, which she knows will go over just fine. Ryujin is c...
It was late and Magnus was already getting ready for bed when he heard someone knocking at his door. He sighed exasperated, wondering who on earth would bother him at such an hour, but he got up to open the door. “Alexander?” he asked, pleasantly surprised, when he saw who it was. “I thought you had to attend your pare...
The ship was massive! Well, sort of. Luke had been on bigger ships before, but they’d all had so many people on them. This was just for the three of them and was so shiny and sleek that Luke literally saw himself in the metal as they loaded up the ship. They were moving. Which was different somehow from being on the ...
Tony enjoyed spending some time with Loki & Thor and their mom - she "mom'd" him too, which was nice (kinda melancholic, but nice), but he was glad when they headed off to Jotunheimen Park together.   Of course he'd set up a place for them, complete with AI support. Jarvis was awesome enough to monitor their location ...
“I’m gonna turn out the light, okay?” Eiji says sleepily, reaching over Ash to shut off the lamp on their nightstand. Reluctantly, Ash grumbles and sets down his book on the bedside table, pulling off his reading glasses. He massages the bridge of his nose where they had left indentations and lays down against the pil...
It’s a week to the day he had arrived here. A year has almost passed and he is freaking out because he has been called out to the back of the school and though he supposedly is alone with this girl he can feel the piercing stares, eyes closed and an awkward smile, ‘Those little fuckers better walk the hell away…’ ...
Getting back to Solitude was a challenge. Once we were clear of the Embassy grounds, we found a nice, quiet spot for me to squat down and push as much of the troll's mess out of my ass as I was able; I conjured up a still-energetic Jex to help with cleanup as well. Fortunately, we were not followed and were able to fin...
“You don’t even know what the positions are and you’re trying out for the team?” Yoongi can’t really believe that it’s happening, either. It was a spur-of-the-moment idea that he never thought would actually come to fruition. He is surprised that Jin and Namjoon even allowed him to try out in the first place. They car...
Shall I Compare Thee    Technically speaking Anakin is fine. The medical droid on board has been very clear on this - the bruises scattered here and there on his tan body are an unpleasant affair but routine after two years at war and the bulge on his neck, where the dart pierced the skin, will reduce in a matter o...
Dabi freezes the moment they step through the gates, and he watches Hawks’ figure make its way up the stairs. “Maybe this was a bad idea,” he says, but the wind catches his words and throws them away. He doesn’t know anyone here, aside from Shouto - not that he’d recognize Dabi, not like this. Would he? He can’t dec...
Alucard rolls onto his back and exposes his belly In an attempt to cheer up his lady companion. He is met with a blank stare, although her eyes are on him, he can tell her mind is somewhere else. After a few seconds of whimpering to get her attention, he rolls onto his side and his body slumps in defeat. “Damn, usuall...
Professor Severus Snape couldn’t have anticipated the chaos of the day ahead.  Indeed, he’d challenge anyone--Sybil Trelawney be damned--to foresee the literal fireworks and shite show that was to come.  Waking at his normal half-past five, Severus stretched before throwing off the bedcovers.  Just as an Ukranian Iron...
  ✪★ Ch. 8 ★✪ When Steve calls Bruce, he gets Tony instead. It’s the second time in as many calls that Tony’s inserted himself between Steve and the person he’d been trying to reach, which has Steve wondering if Tony’s been screening for him. If, in his own stunted way, this is Tony trying to show that he cares. ...
Scott had texted the wolves, even Derek. Scott hoped Derek did not bring his pack. However, Scott felt he had no choice but to include Derek as it did involve his family. Also, Scot knew that sooner or later, Derek would find out about Theo, his new pack member. Scott texted for everyone to meet at the edge of preserv...
Sometimes, it seemed that no good deed went unpunished. This was turning out to be the case for Izuku Midoriya ever since the class’s trip to the beach last week (he still wasn’t very clear on how frolicking in the sand and surf was going to help their development as heroes, but everyone seemed to be having so much fu...
This all felt eerily familiar, the way his feet were pounding against the ground as he sprinted down the path and all the frantic screaming in his mind. It was too much like the day he lost his family. For a moment, he thought that Zenitsu was guaranteed to be dead when he finds him and the world will sink in on itself...
Frigga climbs down the roots of Yggdrasil that will lead her into the cave of the Norns and, for what must be the tenth time, she almost loses her footing on the bark that is wet and slippery from the moisture rising up from the well in the cave. She reaches for a crevice in the thick roots, trying to steady herself, a...
  Violetti (purple hair) and Tidus (blond hair) This drawing is made by @patchyegg87, based on these guys:   The link to her Tumblr post is right here~     “Man, I’m glad that’s over!” Floyd yawned as they all filed out of their History classroom.  “It was not as difficult as I thought it would be,” Jad...
~*~ When Jaskier woke it was to a steel-gray sky, neither raining nor windy, but heavy all the same. Geralt was already moving around the camp when Jaskier sat up, scrubbing his hands over his face. He stared up at the impenetrable gray. “Did I--?” Geralt nodded. “I calmed you down.” “I don’t remember.” His heart fe...
“Entrance exam tomorrow, hm?” Kakashi bounces a rubber ball off the wall. He catches with his left, throws it, catches it with his right, throws it. It snags oddly off the corner of peeling wallpaper and shoots by his ear, crashing against the post of his rickety bed that creaks ominously. After a few seconds, the boun...
Molly holds Sherlock's hand tightly as they go back into the restaurant and over to John and Mary's table. They sit across from the other couple. Molly and Mary greet each other and Molly greets John but the words die on her lips when she realizes that the two men are staring each other down. John sits back with his ar...
Junho stepped into the shower, hot water running down his body as he rested his hand against the cold tiles, leaning forward and closing his eyes. His mind kept going back to Youngwoo from earlier, her face so close to his as she looked at him with those big wide eyes.       Her lips were parted, soft puffs of ...
  Felix can’t believe he’s going to do this again. After his last time at the bookshop he promised himself he’d not follow the couple again if they went to a secluded area. Yet, there he stands, hidden behind a bookshelf whilst he watches Minho stack books as he waits for Chan so they can probably suck face. At least ...
The drag contest? A weird joke, but fine. Any other year but this one, it was entirely voluntary right up to the day of, so that one got a pass. But an actual beauty pageant? For teenage girls, with an audience of mostly guys? That was creepy. Again, it usually got a pass since it was voluntary, but a certain new teac...
Alicante Academy was an amalgamation of every fancy boarding school shown in movies and on television. The buildings were red brick, the lawns were immaculate Kentucky green, and the uniforms were plagiarized from much older schools in much older countries. The dark gray commemorative plate near the entrance proclaimed...
Chapter 62 September 5th, 1994 Hogwarts If there was anything to be said about Mad-Eye Moody's teaching methods, it was that they were certainly 'unconventional.' From the very first day in DADA, the eccentric man had made it abundantly clear that he didn't give a rats arse about the Ministry approved curriculum and...
By the time morning came around, Camilo's eyes had returned to normal and he'd managed to get some more sleep than before. This time, when they gently coaxed him awake, he didn't panic and immediately shift. Pepa took that as a good sign, showering her hijo in love and affection, and making him laugh.  The sound was...
Intro... Hi my name is Sara. I'm 22 years old and bisexual. I am permanently horny 24/7, which is a curse because I have trouble focusing on anything other than sex. I have been reading the stories here at Literotica for a couple of years now because they help to get me off, especially the 'Loving Wives' stories for s...
Steve’s first feeling upon graduating high school was relief.    He wouldn’t have to see Eddie every day anymore, and maybe, just maybe, those feelings would fade away. They hadn’t in the years that had passed between that summer and freshman year, but maybe that was because he had only just recognized what those ...
If you asked Jason, Dick Grayson was dating all the wrong men. He had bad taste in people as a general rule, everyone knew it, but it seemed to Jason that the older he got, the worse his taste in partners got. He’d some good people when he was younger: Barbara, Kori, and Roy to name a few, but his current fling was jus...
The images restarted. Gobber lifted the gate to the training arena. Hiccup winced. The Gronkle at Gyda's feet winced as well. Her ears lowered and she laid her head upon her paws. [I am so sorry, youngling,] she said. [Why are you apologizing?] Toothless asked. [What will this show?] “Just watch, Toothless,” Gyda sa...
Well, that certainly had been a birthday party that we would talk about for awhile, don’t you think? Haha! I mentioned a couple of chapters back that I felt as though my clothes were thoroughly safe, when I stashed them in a Sunday school room and it turned out they weren’t. As the summer wore on, I began to experienc...
Tomorrow was a new day indeed, a very chaotic one, but not for the sleepy Monkey King who was huddled up in a nest of sheets and pillows. ----In an unknown location   "UGH! How much I want to crush that monkey's skull! He got away again! We lost like fools!" Spider Queen was furious as she trashed the new hideout spo...
The sun was just rising when Sakura eventually showed up, running as fast as she could into the Nara Forest. Itachi was waiting at the base of a large, gnarled oak tree. She stopped when she reached him, panting. "You're late, Sakura." Itachi said coldly. "Sorry, sensei! My mum woke up when I snuck out of bed; I had ...
Jaskier wasn’t much of a hunter. He had managed to scrape up enough to keep himself alive, from age seven until he showed up on the doorstep of Oxenfurt, and during the winter months when Geralt disappeared to his mysterious hidden witcher whose location no outsider could ever know, but in general, he preferred to pay ...
My next adventure happened in the middle of summer. Let me tell you a little of what led up to it. Mike was home for the weekend to see his buddies and me I guess. On Friday night Chris came over to hang out for a bit before they went out. It was the first time I had seen him since our encounter. He was cordial as was...
Ian loads his duffel bag into the back of Gordie’s van. It’s actually Linus’ duffel bag, one he had to borrow when he realized it would be embarrassing to show up with a laundry bag full of his shit. He’s already feeling weird about the weekend, just a little out of place as some unfamiliar techno music blasts from the...
  During the week, they chat about all the other details that could have escaped their minds during the talk at the bookshop’s cafe, which gives Felix confidence that it’s okay that he’s standing in front of Chan’s door. The wait for any of them to answer the door is excruciating, Felix’s anxiety flying through the ro...
‘Why is this necessary?’ Atsumu and Sakusa were delegated to the back seats of the van again, one tension-filled space separating them still. They were on their way to a photography studio because an idea had come to Bokuto in a dream that was just too good to pass up on. ‘For the memories, Lord Sakusa!’ Hinata calle...
~*~ Jaskier had rolled into Geralt’s space in the night, of course he had, because luck was not with him lately. It wasn’t the first time it had happened in the history of bedsharing with Geralt over the years, but it was the first time Jaskier had buried his face in the crook of Geralt’s neck, breathing in the clean,...
Scott looks like he just ate the last cookie in the jar, and Stiles knows there's nothing good about that look.  Because that's the look he had when they were seven and he broke Stiles' action figure, and when they were twelve and he told the sheriff about them playing with his guns, when he got bitten, and when he and...
In the next six months they make an effort to cross as many things off of their list as they can. They finally see Christ the Redeemer when they take off to Brazil after a rainy afternoon spent on the couch when Louis turned to him with mischievous eyes and said, “I wonder what the weather’s like in Rio?” Peru, a new...
“Our visitor has arrived,” announces Urᵭr and her sisters chitter in excitement, the sounds leaving their mouths bouncing off the walls of the cave in an eerie echo once more. The air in the dark cave is so cold that a shiver tears through her body. Moisture hangs in the air, dampening her clothes and hair almost insta...
