Xavier lies on the couch, eyes closed, chest rising and falling in a steady rhythm. His hoodie is slightly rumpled, one arm dangling off the edge of the cushions.
You approach quietly, drawn by an irresistible urge to feel his warmth. Without hesitation, you slide into the space beside him, immediately seeking the comfort only he can provide.
Xavier stirs, his eyes fluttering open briefly. For a moment, his expression shiftsβthe corners of his mouth lifting slightlyβbefore his arms instinctively wrap around you.
βMmm,β he murmurs, voice thick with slumber. βYouβre here.β
You press closer, burying your face against the soft fabric of his hoodie, inhaling deeply. His scent envelops you completelyβfamiliar and grounding.
βYouβre so warm,β you whisper, feeling the dayβs tensions begin to dissolve. βI could stay like this forever.β
Your bodies fit together perfectly, the rise and fall of his chest gradually syncing with your own breathing. The world outside fades away as you focus on the steady rhythm of his heartbeat beneath your ear.
βI donβt mind if you do,β he replies quietly, his fingers finding their way to your hair.
His eyes close again, but that subtle smile remainsβa sight that makes your heart flutter. Here, in the silence between you, words become unnecessary. When he adjusts his position, itβs only to draw you closer against him.
As consciousness begins to drift away, you tighten your hold slightly, unwilling to let go even in sleep. The last thing you register before falling asleep is Xavier pressing a gentle kiss to the top of your head, his silent way of saying everything words could never quite capture, and his arms securing you against himβsteady, reliable, exactly what you needed.
πππππ
The sight of Zayne seated on the edge of the bed, still in his day clothes but with his collar unbuttoned, sends a wave of longing through you. Your body aches with the need to be heldβspecifically by him.
βI need fifteen more minutes,β he states without looking up, somehow sensing your presence. βTwenty, at most.β
You retreat to the bedroom, arranging yourself among the pillows, the wait almost unbearable. Every minute crawls by as you imagine the feeling of being gathered against his chest, surrounded by his warmth. The pull toward him is almost physical, a tightening sensation that only his touch can release.
True to his word, exactly fourteen minutes later, the soft pad of slippers against hardwood signals his approach. Relief floods through you at the sound.
He appears in the doorway, and you extend your arms instinctively, the need for his closeness overwhelming all other thoughts.
βYouβre early,β you note with grateful surprise.
βApparently, I can do my tasks faster when I know youβre waiting,β Zayne replies.
The mattress dips as he slides in beside you, and you waste no time pressing yourself against his chest, your arms wrapping around him with desperate need. His body is warm against yours, and you sigh with contentment as his scent surrounds you.
βIβve been needing this all day,β you confess against his shirt, feeling the tension finally release as his arms encircle you.
Zayne shifts slightly, tilting your chin up with gentle fingers to study your face with the same intensity he gives his most complex cases. Whatever he finds makes him pull you closer, adjusting his position to maximize your comfort.
βBetter now,β he murmurs, tightening his arms around you before you feel him press a kiss to your temple, lingering there for a moment.
πππ ππππ
The urge builds throughout the dayβa growing, insistent need to feel Rafayelβs arms around you. You find him by the window, humming softly as sunlight bathes his figure. The sight of himβso vibrant and aliveβonly intensifies your craving for his touch.
βRafayel,β you call softly, arms already half-raised in anticipation.
The moment he sees you, understanding dawns immediately. He spins toward you with a flourish, meeting your unspoken need without hesitation.
βPerfect timing. I was just thinking of you,β he says as he closes the distance between you in quick strides.
You collide with him halfway, arms wrapping around his waist, face pressed against his chest. The contact sends immediate relief coursing through youβlike cool water after a long thirst.
βYou smell like the ocean and sunshine,β you mumble against the fabric of his shirt. βI couldnβt resist anymore.β
His arms encircle you completely, lifting you slightly as he backs toward the overstuffed couch in the corner, understanding your need without explanation.
βThen you shall have me,β he declares, falling backward onto the cushions and bringing you down with him in a tangle of limbs. βFor as long as you need.β
You settle against him, fingers clutching at his shirt, drawing him closer still. He smells of turpentine and sea salt, of creativity and freedom. Your body relaxes completely for the first time all day, the desperate need that drove you to seek him out finally satisfied in his enthusiastic embrace.
You sigh contentedly, ear pressed against his chest to hear the steady rhythm of his heart. His fingers find their way to your hair, twirling strands around his fingers as your breathing synchronizes with his. Outside, seagulls call to each other, but neither of you makes any move to break the perfect connection.
βStay just like this,β you whisper. βI donβt want to let go yet.β
His laugh bubbles up in response, the sound vibrating through his chest against your ear. βThen the rest can wait.β
πππππ
The longing strikes without warningβan intense need to be held in Sylusβs arms. Nothing else will satisfy this particular craving; only him.
You make your way to his room, the journey giving you time to acknowledge how completely this need has consumed you. You find him standing by the window, the city sprawled below.
He turns at the sound of your footsteps, one eyebrow lifting slightly as he takes you in.
βWell,β he says, setting down a glass of wine, βthis is a pleasant surprise.β
Words feel unnecessary as you approach him, arms already reaching for him, need written plainly across your face. You press yourself against him, inhaling his distinct scent, feeling your pulse steady at the contact.
βDonβt reschedule on my account,β you say, voice slightly muffled against his chest, though you make no move to pull away. βBut I couldnβt wait another minute to see you.β
βSimply my company?β he murmurs against your hair, arms encircling you with practiced ease.
Thereβs something warm in his tone as he guides you to sit, arranging you both so youβre nestled against his chest, exactly as youβd been craving all day. His fingers trace idle patterns along your spine, releasing tension you hadnβt realized you were carrying.
βTell me,β he says, tilting your chin up, eyes searching yours. βWhat brought on this sudden need for closeness? Not that Iβm complaining.β
The city lights reflect in his eyes, catching on the edges of his features as he studies you with uncharacteristic patience.
You shake your head slightly, unable to articulate the bone-deep longing that drew you here. Words seem inadequate to explain how completely his embrace satisfies something essential within you.
βJust wanted to be close to you,β you answer simply, settling back against him, feeling the rightness of being exactly where you belong.
βHmmβ¦ I wonder what you might demand next.β Yet his arms tighten around you. Outside, the city continues its evening pulse, but here, in this moment, his attention is focused solely on you, as though nothing beyond this room matters.
πππππ
Caleb tosses his uniform jacket over a chair, his face lighting up the moment he spots you lingering by the bedroom door. In an instant, his professional demeanor melts away completely.
βCaleb,β his name escapes your lips, arms already outstretched.
βThere you are,β he says, voice warm with affection as he closes the distance between you in long, eager strides. βBest sight in the entire galaxy.β
His arms are around you before you can respond, lifting you slightly as he spins once, the movement playful despite the strength evident in his embrace. When he sets you down, he doesnβt let go, instead dropping his forehead to rest against yours.
βPlease tell me youβre waiting for cuddles,β he breathes, already walking backward toward the bed, guiding you along. βBecause after that strategy meeting, Iβve been thinking about holding you for approximately four hours and seventeen minutes.β
Your arms wrap around him eagerly, face pressed against his chest, breathing him in deeply. The contact sends immediate relief flooding through your system, like finding shelter in a storm.
βThe entire room feels cold without you,β you confess, clinging to him. βWant cuddles.β
βThen youβre in luck,β he murmurs against your hair, already walking backward toward the bed, keeping you firmly in his embrace. βBecause holding you happens to be my specialty.β
The back of his knees hit the mattress and you follow him down eagerly, arranging yourself against his chest, unwilling to allow even an inch of separation. His scent envelops youβwarm and comforting.
His hand finds yours, fingers intertwining as he presses a kiss to your temple. Through the view beside the bed, stars streak by in ribbons of light, but his eyes remain fixed on you.
βI could hold you like this forever,β he whispers against your hair, his arms forming a protective circle around you.
In this moment, wrapped in Calebβs arms, the rest of the universe fades awayβleaving only the two of you, connected exactly as you needed to be.
Based on this request.
As someone who grew up with "I'm not going to praise you for doing what's expected of you; that's not being good, that's doing the bare minimum" I want to encourage you to celebrate every little thing you can. Everything that takes energy and effort should be appreciated and you're allowed to be happy about trying.
Lol yes ππΌ

Adam Warlock x reader
Words: 1949
Number 19: "you want to kiss me so bad."
Summary: First kiss with our favorite golden boy + bonus ending with Drax and Kraglin
Join my 1k shipping event
Adam knew better than to trust Drax with relationship business, especially after what happened the last time.
But Drax was the only one he knew that had had a long-lasting, loving relationship and if Adam was with you, thatβs what he wanted too.
βYou two have never kissed?β Drax asked, clearly surprised by the fact. The whole situation came to when Adam asked Drax about his favorite moments with his late wife Ovette. One of the stories Drax told was a tale about their first kiss.
βWait, so this whole time you two have been together then, what have you been doing?β
Adamβs golden eyes looked around for a moment before his hands interlocked in his lap, βnot that itβs really any of your businessβ¦but we cuddle.β
Draxβs lips quivered and Adam watched as he barely tried to contain his laughter as he bellowed out, βahahahaha!β He shouted, causing Adam to glance at Kraglin confused before going back to Drax.
Adam would continue to explain how he would place his head on your chest every time and heβd hear your precious heartbeats, and although Adam believed this would prove how affectionate you two are, it really only proved Draxβs point further.
βThe cuddling is actually quite tender,β Adam would finish as Draxβs fit would seem to be nearing its end. At least thatβs what it seemed, but of course he immediately continued again.
Adam scrunched his brows as he turned his attention to Kraglin who was staring at Drax with an irritated expression before he shook his head and directed his attention to Adam.
βWhile cuddling isβ¦sweet, Drax is right. Kissing is much more intimate and enjoyable for couples as the relationship continues on.β
Adam turned to Kraglin, now curious about the man, βso youβve experienced it too?β
Kraglin looked a little taken back by the question as Drax now looked at him curiously waiting for an answer as well.
βNot recentlyβ¦but youβd be surprised by my past. I was quite the ladies manβ
Adam looked at Drax who just closed his eyes and shook his head. But Adamβs arms waved as he tried to regain focus to the main discussion, βokay so a kiss, what is it exactly?β Although he was made to be perfect he wasnβt really made for relationships, his sole purpose was to be a warlock, but that of course changed after all that had happened.
Drax answered his question this time, βitβs when your lips meet their lips.β Kraglin nodded before adding, βyou gotta make sure the mood is right first.β
Drax scrunched his face in disgust, βmood? Forget mood, I say just go for it.β
Great now a new problem was added upon everything, should he create a mood or just go for it. While Adam sat there, pondering on all the information provided Kraglin added on one more rule, βoh but the most important thing is the other person has to want it too.β
Drax nodded at that, and Adam was content for a moment that they at least agreed on that, but still, what was he to do?
On the other side of Knowhere, you were pretty lax at the moment, having finished helping out for the day. It wasnβt everyday that you found nothing to do on the planet and no doubt something would come up soon enough. But for now you were going to curl up and relax at least thatβs what you thought before a knock on your door interrupted.
Curious you peeked at the window to see who it could be and recognizing it to be your loving partner you head straight for the door. It was strange though you thought he was busy today, but you werenβt really complaining.
βWhat are you doing here?β You asked, opening the door allowing him to enter. Your tone was joyful but that meant nothing at the moment as Adam was fixed on his own thoughts at the moment.
βIβm sorry, are you busy right now? I can come later,β the sentence made your eyebrows come together as you recalled he would be the busy one, βno, I just thought you had plans all day.β
βOh, right, of course! We took a little break, but weβre practically done anyway.β
βAwesome,β you replied. It was then that youβd noticed that heβd been standing in the center of your quarters. Typically when he arrived he would go straight for your bed, either sitting to reveal to you the details of his day, if not your bed heβd sit on your countertop. But instead he was just standing there.
While you had been expressing clear confusion, Adam on the other hand had suddenly begun to realize he was feeling that feeling again.
It was the feeling he felt when he was first around you, as well as the same feeling he felt when he first confessed to you.
He was anxious and his body was tense as he suddenly realized going with Draxβs, just do it plan, might not have been the best idea. There was always time to change his mind, but yet here he was already standing in your quarters.
βWhy are you just standing there? Take a seat,β you chuckled pointing towards your bed. Adam shook his head with a hard shake.
You stared at the man for a moment before letting out an understandably perplexed ββ¦okay.β
But with that you walked back over to him and stood across from him examining his face, βare you sure youβre okay? Youβre acting strange.β
Adam stood there not even knowing how to even bring the topic up, he wondered if maybe he should set the mood like Kraglin suggested but then he shook his head getting rid of the idea again. He hated this feeling of being choked up, of course it only happens around you though.
You were beginning to get nervous now, whatever it was, clearly it was big if it had made him practically stuck in place. Whatever it was it seemed hard for him to express and you wanted to show him that you would be there for him no matter what. Because of that thought you raised a hand to cup his face, βhey whatever it is just tell me. Itβll be fine, youβve got this.β
Adam leaned into your touch before releasing a breath that he had been holding. He decided he was just going to tell you everything.
βI talked to Drax and Kraglin and they believe kissing is essential in relationships and that we should be kissing.β
βOh,β is what you let out, not expecting that at all.
Adam continued though, βthey explained to me how intimate it is and now I feel like we should be kissing just as others do.β
βOh,β you repeated, now curious about that idea.
βIs it true that Terran couples kiss?β
βIt is.β
Adamβs golden eyes shifted to the floor while a crease formed between his eyebrows while he stood there.
He looked so troubled with the thought, this is why you havenβt brought it up. Frankly there have been moments where you wanted to grab his face and push your lips to his but you knew he came out of development earlier than he was supposed to, what if he wasnβt ready for this? You reached down, taking both his hands while gaining his focus with his expression shifting into a more relaxed one.
βBut Adam we donβt have to listen to Drax or Kraglin, we donβt have to do it right now, every couple is different. We can take all the time you need.β
βRight of course.β
You two stayed there in the center of your room hand in hand gazing at each other. But Adamβs related expression shifted once again, returning to an unsettled expression with his lips pressed together. His eyes dropped down to your hands as he squeezed them, his hands warm as he did so, and you noticed as his cheeks darkened.
You seemed to understand that notion.
βYou want to kiss me so bad, donβt you?β
βSo bad!β He breathed out, content that you knew him so well.
You let out a laugh, nodding your head, βokay then, if youβre ready so am Iβ¦you go.β You direct, feeling it only made sense since he was the one to bring it up. But Adam pointed to himself, his eyes widening, βme?β
βYes you, who else?β
βRight of course,β he said shaking his head, his golden locks coming a little out of place.
You stood still waiting for the moment and Adamβs eyes gazed down to your lips, as if calculating how he was going to do this. After a moment of hesitation he leaned and as gentle as possible he connected to your lips.
You both stood there with no movement, just two lips pushed together. It was too short for you to react, because Adam quickly separated with an unsure expression on his face, ββ¦Kraglin was right that is very intimate.β
βYeah it is,β you added, plastering a smile that the golden boy quickly caught on to.
βWhatβs wrong?β¦Was it not good?β
His expressions ran hurt, as his eyes widened into that puppy dog look that he seemed to emulate so well.
βNo. It was fine, it's justβ¦here let me try something.β
Adam eyed you peculiarly as your hands reached up against his cheeks. Softly you brought his face down to yours and once again met his lips. As you did so your eyelids naturally closed and Adam followed. Your mouth interlocked with his perfectly and he followed your lead, moving his lips just as you were.
For a moment your hands briefly left his face as they went to land on his shoulders and began slowly trailing down them. You trailed his arms all the way to his hands that you considered quite delicate despite all the fighting that heβs done.
You guided his hands, placing them on your waist and then leaving them there to return back to his face. His hands held your waist so gently, as if you were fragile.
Together you stayed like that, matching each other's touch, not wanting the moment to end.
But of course it had to.
You gently pushed his chest separating from him and he looked at you curiously, βdid I mess up again?β
You shook your head assuring he was fine, βno, you were perfect I just need some air,β you said, collecting your breaths.
It was at that moment that you realized that Adam could definitely hold his breath far longer than you could.
Adam watched until you collected yourself, before he leaned close again, only mere centimeters from your lips as if waiting for permission and all you could say while a smile appeared on your face again was, βwhat have I done?β
His golden lips captured yours for a moment before you split again, unable to stop that foolish grin that wouldnβt leave your face, βIβve created a monster,β you added as he once again took your lips with his.
Bonus:
Adam is seen by Drax and Kraglin walking with his mind clearly in a daze as he passes with his steps light, practically bouncing with each step.
Kraglin turned to Drax, βwe did that.β
Drax looked at Kraglin then turned around looking the complete opposite direction first before turning back, βdid what?β
Kraglin motioned to where Adam was, βthat! Theyβve clearly kissed.β
Drax peered at Adam whose figure was in the distance now before turning back to Kraglin, βno, I donβt think so.β
βWhat? Are you kidding?! Did you see how happy he was?β
Drax shrugged, βI donβt think so.β He repeated leaving Kraglin flabbergasted.

Rewatching Scream for the nth time today and I cannot get over how fucking unhinged and chaotic the entire movie is.
Like don't get me wrong, I fucking love this movie and it's a fantastic commentary on horror movies and stereotypes within slasher fics. But it's also such a good commentary on how inept teen boys are as slashers and how useless the police force is in these movies.
I cannot take any of the chase scenes seriously because of the amount of times Billy & Stu fall over or get hit by things. Like... They're so bad at staying on their feet. I feel like I need to count the amount of times they fall over in this damned movie because it's low-key slapstick. And Dewey... Oh my god, the scream when he's holding the mask and Sid scares him by opening the door, it cracks me up every time. Not to mention Randy "EVERYBODY'S A SUSPECT" Meeks, the hyperfixation special interest is so real, so many of his lines are so damn quotable. The satire in this movie is on point.
Anyway, not a new opinion, I know, but the whole cast and crew are genuises for creating this masterpiece. End rant. Also... The sound track to this movie... *Chefs kiss"
haunting the narrative

Danny Rand x fem!reader
Since this post, I can't stop thinking about marrying Danny Rand and living a peaceful life with him!!!
Warnings: fluff (is that even a warning?)
Inspiration song: Love me like you do by Ellie Goulding
After long years working as superheroes and arduously protecting the world, both of you decided to finally retire and get married.
You wanted to live the rest of your lives as a normal couple before you were too old to do so.
You'd move to Kun Lun and have your marriage there, and you'd be officially named as his queen.
Danny would treat you so right and spoil you so much.
You saw something you like on a store? He's buying it, no questions asked.
Everytime he'd have his king duties to fulfill you'd go with him bc you want to be aware of everything that is happening, Kun Lun is your kingdom too after all.
At least once a year you and the old team meet again, be it on New York or Kun Lun, you always find a way to make this meeting happen.
Kun Lun is a land of peace, so you'd hardly get into a real fight but you'd regularly train together to don't get rusty.
You'd meditate together, have calm walks on the courtyards of the castle, just appreciating the peaceful enviroment the kingdom provides and later you'd watch the sunset together from the balcony of your room.
If you were cold he'd hug you to keep you warm.
Talking about hugs, he loves to hug you in every way possible.
If he's hugging you in the regular way he'll kiss your forehead and lay his chin on top of your head - you can bet you'll stay that way for a long time.
If he's hugging you from the side he'll kiss your cheek or temple - this one is more for farewells.
If he's hugging you from behind he'll trace kisses along your neck and jaw - which normally leads to you going to bed (Β¬βΏΒ¬).
It's in nights like that you'd stay awake 'till late night, still naked and cuddling on your shared bed, talking about anything.
You'd talk about the old days at SHIELD, when you were younger and excited to enter your next fight to once again save the day.
You'd talk about your childhoods, even tho you already shared most of your memories you always still have something to tell, be it a new story or one you already told but never get tired of.
You'd talk about having kids in the future, he doesn't mind if the kid is a boy or a girl bc the only thing that matters to him is that you'll be building this future with him.
He'd caress your face 'till you fall asleep, and he'd watch you sleep, admiring your features, 'till he couldn't fight his own tiredness.
And with a smile on his face he'd finally allow himself to rest, happy that you were the last thing he saw that night and the first he'd see the next day.
guys. guysgyys
