Look okay can we talk about Ethan saying the word yes

Heisenberg holds out his hand, palm up, heart on his sleeve and Ethan says yes

Can you imagine a Heisenberg that is genuinely eager to work with someone, an outsider, an equal, in order to take down the the woman that made him what he is???

Can you imagine the relief? He'd feel? At having someone actually On His Side for the first time in this life??? That has to be something Big for him, right? Someone going "yes, I will help you" and actually Meaning It

Sure he goes through all the stages of grief before he actually believes a single word Ethan says to him, or maybe his intent all along was to use and betray Ethan as an asset and nothing else, but eventually, after a good few life or death moments with the megamycete stuff, he has that moment

You know the moment I'm talking about. The italicised oh. The one where he looks at Ethan, really looks at him over his shoulder, the man laying down covering fire at his back during the revolution they both brought to fruition, and he realises what true companionship can be like. And from that moment on he Craves It. The reliability. The camaraderie. God, is this what Validation and Trust feels like?? Someone caring whether he lives or dies?? I'm telling you the man is SUNK no conniving bastard just wakes up one day and decides 'I'm going to befriend the enemy'. He either had a plan to betray Ethan OR he legitimately wanted help and companionship. And I know which one I'm gonna pick up and run with

Sure they started wanting to actively kill eachother in the beginning, but that just adds to that edge in their relationship both of them have learned to thrive on. Keeps them sharp and distant, that tightrope pulled taut, ready to snap...

Anyway yeah, imagine

Stiles is a struggling author barely making ends meet.

Derek is a successful architect whose biological clock is ticking.

Enter a surrogacy agency, two packs, and a particularly sticky and toe curling heat week and you get a match made in heaven.

Drunken Neighbor

Words: 658

Rating: T

Relationships: Viggo/Hiccup

Summary: Viggo wakes up to the sound of his drunk neighbor trying to get into his apartment

Notes: Based on the prompt: “There’s some scratching at my door and I’m scared, but in the end it’s just my drunk neighbor trying to open the wrong door, hey buddy your apartment is down the hall!” from this prompt list

*****

Viggo hears the scratching in the middle of the night like a key trying to make its way into a lock with the occasional ka-thump-thump of off beat steps and a body clumsily hitting any surface in its path. It goes on long enough to drag him out of the warmth of his covers so he can investigate. This neighborhood hardly has a problem with burglars, but that doesn’t mean it’s out of the realm of possibility.

The scratching continues and as he gets closer to the front door there’s the addition of mumbled swears after each fumble. Viggo looks through the peephole to get an idea of what he’s dealing with. He’s fairly confident he can handle whoever may be on the other side, especially in his irate state, yet he takes the precaution just in case. What he sees is a mess of auburn hair blocking most of the view.

It’s a familiar mess, one that Viggo has wanted to get his hands into for several weeks, now; ever since his newest neighbor has proven to be an intelligent and witty young man. He grins, irritation washing away, and opens the door wide enough to have the auburn haired youth nearly falling into his chest.

"He was just trying to feel pretty for once. And Merle walked in."

My latest fic is live:

Part 2 of my Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell, Don’t Forget: fanfic series

❝ The Weight of Being Seen ❞

(TW: self-harm, panic attacks, verbal abuse, gender exploration, hurt/comfort)

Set in a post-canon TWD AU where Merle and Abe are Daryl’s found family. Daryl is exploring his identity—softness, femininity, safety in stolen moments—until Merle catches him wearing eyeliner and a dress.

What happens next? Hurt. Panic. Flashbacks. But also?

Healing. Holding. Redemption. A couch bed and every blanket in the damn house.

Featuring:

Merle’s clumsy redemption arc

Abraham Ford, actual emotional support tank

Daryl Dixon sobbing in flannel

“If I call you Darlena, you gonna slug me?”

Softness as survival

If you’re queer and tired and ever just wanted someone to say “you’re allowed to want softness”—this one’s for you.

**An overhaul of my first work**

Charles knew that there was some sort of darkness brewing inside of Arthur. He thought that maybe he needed some time alone, but that just drew Charles closer to Arthur. Too close for comfort. But there wasn’t much to be done when it turns out that Dutch’s new golden boy Micah Bell abuses Arthur at every turn under Dutch’s nose. Charles, along with John, know that they need to do something before it gets any worse.
