I SEE ALL OF YOU LMAO
Day Five: Haunted House
*
“And… there!” Lance sits back to admire his work. “Wow, you look really scary.”
The actor smiles at the makeup artist, thanking him before getting up to go get into costume. The Cuban smiles, dabbing his brush onto a cloth before sliding it into his makeup bag and zipping it shut. That had been his final actor. All of the people for the opening night of the haunted house were all made up and he was free to roam the park.
“It’s funny to me that you’ll do this, but you won’t watch Saw with me.”
Lance turns, looking over to see his boyfriend leaning on the doorframe of the dressing room. He smiles, looking over his beat up leather jacket and the braid Lance had managed to weave into his hair before his shift (with minimal grumbling, of course).
“There’s a difference between making people look like a monster and watching a movie about a psychopathic serial killer.” He quips.
“It’s still funny to me that you took a job at a haunted house. Of all places.” Keith snorts, pushing off the wall and walking over to help Lance with his bags. “You jump at shadows.”
“I’m creating these shadows. There’s a difference!”
“Uh huh,” Keith presses a kiss to his cheek. “Come on, let’s go. I lost a bet to Pidge and now she’s making me get my face painted.”
“I could do it.” Lance offers.
“Nah,” he shoulders the makeup bag. “She wants it to be embarrassing, and you’d make it pretty even if it was embarrassing.”
“This is true.” Lance laughs, taking Keith’s free hand and squeezing it. “Why do you have to get your face painted, anyway?”
The Korean’s cheeks heat up, his ears going slightly red. “You’ll laugh at me.”
“You lost a bet to Pidge, of course I’ll laugh at you.” He chuckles.
“Fair enough…” Keith grumbles. He chews on his lip for a moment before he huffs. “We went into the kids haunted house across the way, and… I got scared.”
“You… got scared?” Lance raises an eyebrow.
“Yeah, well… the deal was that we had to keep a straight face the whole time. And everything was fine! Until this kid bumped into me and I freaked out.”
The Cuban swallows a laugh. “And what was this kid dressed like?”
Keith deflates. “A puppy.”
“Sounds like you really deserve that face paint, babe.” Lance teases, swinging their arms. “C’mon, I wanna help pick what it is.”
“You guys are so mean to me!” Keith whines, trudging along beside him.
“Yeah, yeah.” He chuckles, leaning up and giving him a kiss. “You brought this on yourself. Let’s go.”
The two walk hand in hand toward their friends, the haunted house at their backs and Lance’s endless palettes of makeup and brushes clacking together in the bag. Keith grumbles about the injustice of unforeseen circumstances and backstabbing best friends. Lance tightens his fingers around Keith’s hand, smiling and shaking his head.
Oh man, if only Keith knew that Lance had taken this job so that Keith had an excuse to go to the scream park every night. He was pretty sure that his boyfriend might keel over from the sheer amount of joy. So Lance kept that little part to himself, simply enjoying Keith’s juvenile happiness at the proximity to his favorite holiday. It was well worth designing scary characters and painting them into existence every single night.
Hello all! I’m participating in Klancetober, a klance-centric October prompt list. I’ll be posting at least one installment a day, but please have patience If I fall behind.

Day One: A Walk in the Park
It was finally cold enough to bundle up in warm clothes and drink warm pumpkin spice lattes and watch the leaves fall from the trees. It was finally, finally time to indulge in all the holiday feelings and the warm atmospheres. Even if that meant suffering through the Christmas section in every single store. Even if it was the first day of October.
Keith enjoyed the cooler weather. It was definitely better than the Arizona heat. He lived for the weather where all he needed was a light sweatshirt and jeans and beat up old sneakers. The heat was something he could permanently live without. But the cold? He would gladly live in the mountains, given the chance.
Lance, on the other hand… he had grown up in sunny, tropical Cuba. He hated the cold and took extra measures to keep himself bundled up and away from any semblance of chill. He bundled himself in scarves and fluffy coats and heavy boots and mittens. He looked like a colorful marshmallow in the winter, and Keith loved him for it.
Today, the first day with an overcast sky and the first day where it was ethically acceptable to put out orange fairy lights and spooky decorations in the front yard. Keith had watched fondly as Lance had wrapped himself in a hand-stitched scarf (courtesy of his mother; Keith had a matching one that Lance had pilfered for his own use) and a fluffy sweater.
“We’re only going to the park, you know.” Keith teases from his spot at the kitchen table, finishing off his cooling coffee.
Lance huffs, tying the scarf off into some sort of fashionable loop. “It’s cold! I don’t know how you’re only in jeans and a t-shirt.”
“I like it.” He chuckles, shaking his head. “Are you ready? You’re the one who wanted to go.”
“I know, I know.” The Cuban grumbles, sliding on his winter boots. “I’m ready. Let’s go see the leaves and stuff. Even if it is twenty below.”
“It’s sixty degrees, love.” Keith grins, getting up and sliding into his own shoes. “You won’t die of hypothermia just yet.”
“I’m gonna die,” Lance groans, reaching over and taking his boyfriend’s hand.
“You won’t.” Keith presses a kiss to his cheek. “Let’s go.”
The two walk out of the house, taking in the crisp, cold air and the sound of dried leaves scraping against the pavement as the breeze whisked them away. Keith swings their hands between them, smiling to himself.
If there was any sort of heaven to be had here on this earth, Keith was sure this was it. With a boyfriend bundled up in more layers than was necessary, holding his hand and listening to him chatter about the new fall related flavors his favorite cafe was introducing this week.
That, added with the serene calm of the autumn air, the clear path of the park by their house, and the leaves rustling in the breeze - this was heaven. Keith was sure of it.
“What’re you thinking about?” Lance asks, snapping him out of his reverie.
The Korean looks over at him with a smile, leaning over and kissing his cheek. “Just about how much I love you.”
His boyfriend flushes, smiling and tipping his head to the side. “Aww, babe. That’s gay.”
“I am so gay,” Keith laughs, tugging on his hand and kissing him.
“I love you.” Lance murmurs against his lips.
With a smile and a hand on his hip, he pulls back and looks up at his lovely boyfriend. “I love you, too.”
y’all… u dont understand how much writing in the tags of someone’s creation means to them.. whether it’s fanart, a graphic, fanfic..,, there’s a 99% chance that person looks through their tags and a single opinionated comment in the tags can rlly brighten their day it’s just a rlly wonderful thing to see
me having a new idea for a relatively short fic:
Look!!! This is my arm now!!
Guess what I did.
Today is the day that I put my foot down.
Today is the day that I stand up for myself. Today is the day that I see through you. Today is the day that I call you out. Today is the day that you face your homophobia and call yourself what you are.
You are the reason we march. You are the reason we raise our flags. You are the reason we dress up in vivid colors, the reason we scream at the top of our lungs, the reason we wear our pins, the reason we sell our merch, the reason I write these words.
Because without you, we would be free. Without you, we would not have to march and scream. Without you, our existence would be so much easier. I would not be afraid of every man who might want to “correct” my sexuality. My friend would not have to correct everyone who uses the incorrect pronouns. My girlfriend and I would not have to fear holding hands in public.
This month is full of pride and happiness and acceptance and love. There’s a reason we call it Pride Month. You will not — I will not let you — take that away from us.
I stand with my brothers and sisters and all of the people in between. I will protect them and love them and shield them from the hate that you so desperately throw at us. You may spit on us from the sidelines, you may wave those signs, you may take the lives of innocent people — but we will not falter.
I once was a part of a religion that had a song with the verse that said “we won’t be shaken.” Whatever my relationship with religion may be, that verse has always stuck with me. And now, it’s become an anthem.
You look me dead in the eyes and call the people I have come to love and who have accepted me with open arms degenerates. You tell me the parade and celebration we hold every year has a premise that is not allowed in thoughts, in hearts, in minds. By doing this, you degrade my family and you condemn our feelings.
Today is the day I put my foot down.
I am proud of who I am. I have worked hard to pull myself from the closet you filled with shame, guilt, and hatred. I have come to accept myself and I am still exploring every spectrum, nook, and cranny with the woman I love. I am in love. I am happy. I am proud.
You can scream, you can cry, you can take away the things we love and put us in a box. But this is your warning — you will not keep us there. We are here, we are queer, and we are ready to kick some fucking ass.
Today is the day you eat your fucking words.
**
So I’m back, and I’m pissed, and I’m ready for the world to kiss my ass. I think it’s about time I wrote all this down in words that I hope are inspiring.
Leave a comment or send an ask about your thoughts, or maybe just say hi. Gay rights, baby! Happy fucking Pride.
Thank you again for your review and love, I'm so glad you're enjoying it!!! ❤️
it's a sevika/vi fic. it's one of the best things i've ever read.
i kinda think it's moving just a bit too fast though, especially on the latest chapter. (11 i think?)
i wanted vi to keep being mad, angry, she deserves to feel angry.
but of course, i don't get to tell vi not to forgive. to hold grudges, etc. that's simply not her. she loves a lot. and thankfully this fic is giving her all the love she deserves.
it may give me the feeling of "second-hand vindication" if vi kept being angry (and i still think that she should), but she's nothing but a sweet angel. a sweet angel put into horrible situations.
anywhos, go on and read "dying to live" by @renywrites ! they've written one of the most tender, most loving, and at the same time sexiest, sevika/vi fics i've ever seen. this shit has hockey in it too, and vi + hockey always mixes really well.
Hey guys!
So I'm currently writing/mostly formatting a collection of the poetry I have written for my girlfriend. It's kind of an anniversary present except she knows about it but that's beside the point.
I was wondering if any of you were interested? I'll have to run numbers when I'm finished, but it'll be no more than about 30 pages, and the format I chose starts at $3 USD. I think they would charge shipping.
Let me know if you're interested, and I'll post a link to my book when I've published it! You can like this post if you're somehow too intimidated by me to message me!
Happy new year ☺️
No idea who's actually here from my fanfic lol, but I'm taking requests to line up for my next fics <3 vi x sevika only please! AUs, ideas, whatever suits your fancy. I do write smut as well :D
girl get out of the sevika tag with this disgusting bs. vi x sevika is so wrong and crazy idgaf about legalities. everybody is gonna block your @ss 😭😭😭
No <3 block me then idgaf :)
