In the depths of Pentagram City, the air simmered with tension. Charlie, Hellโs reluctant princess, stood resolute, her gaze locked on Adamโthe ancient sinner whose unrelenting cruelty threatened to unravel all she had worked for. Beside her was a human who had stumbled into Hell by accident, an ordinary soul driven by an extraordinary heart.
This human, the Reader, had no obligation to fight for a demon princess or her improbable dream of redemption. But something about Charlieโs unwavering belief in the possibility of goodness, even amidst the chaos of Hell, had sparked a flame of loyalty within them. Together, they had fought through countless trials, proving that even a mortal soul could make a profound difference in the underworld.
The Readerโs arrival in Hell had been nothing short of a cosmic accidentโa wrong turn on the labyrinthine paths of fate. Awakening in the neon-lit streets of Pentagram City, they had been met with despair and malice at every turn. Lost and overwhelmed, they encountered Charlie at the Hazbin Hotel, the sanctuary she had built as a beacon of hope for the damned. Charlie extended her hand, offering not just guidance but a chance to fight for something greater than mere survival.
Together, they had journeyed across Hellโs harshest locales, from the chaotic Red Light District to the eerie depths of the Lust Ring. The Readerโs mortal perspective often clashed with the demonic cynicism that permeated their surroundings, but their unyielding determination inspired others to join Charlieโs mission. Through every hardship, their bond deepened, becoming an unbreakable connection forged in fire and hope.
The final confrontation unfolded in the abandoned ruins of Lamentation Hall, a once-magnificent palace now steeped in shadows. Adam, towering and formidable, wielded his infernal blade with cruel precision, his malevolent laughter reverberating in the cavernous chamber. He toyed with Charlie, his overwhelming power making her struggles seem futile. The Reader, battered and bruised, knew they couldnโt stand idly by.
As Adam raised his weapon for the killing blow, the Reader acted without hesitation. With a desperate cry, they hurled themselves between Charlie and Adam. The blade meant for her pierced their chest, the impact reverberating through the room like a thunderclap. For a moment, the world seemed to hold its breath.
Charlie caught the Reader as they crumpled, their weight heavy in her arms. Blood spilled from the wound, staining her hands as she pressed against it, as though sheer willpower could stop the inevitable. โNo,โ she whispered, her voice cracking. โNo, no, no. Stay with me. Please, stay with me.โ
The Readerโs face was pale, their breaths shallow and ragged. A weak smile touched their lips as they met Charlieโs tearful gaze. โI couldnโt let him hurt you,โ they murmured, their words strained but unwavering. โYouโฆ youโre the hope this place needs.โ
โWhy?โ Charlieโs voice broke, tears streaming down her cheeks. โWhy did you do this? You didnโt have toโฆโ
With trembling fingers, the Reader reached up, brushing her cheek. โBecause someone has to believe in you,โ they said, their voice barely audible. โIf you donโt winโฆ thereโs no hope for any of us.โ Their hand fell away as their strength ebbed. โPromise meโฆ youโll keep fighting.โ
โI promise,โ Charlie choked out, clutching them closer as though she could anchor them to life by sheer force of will.
The faintest smile graced the Readerโs lips. โGoodโฆโ With one last, shuddering breath, their body stilled, leaving an unbearable silence in their wake.
โฆ.
For a moment, the world seemed to collapse around Charlie. The sound of Adamโs cruel laughter became a distant hum, drowned by the deafening void left by the Readerโs absence. A raw scream tore from her throat, a mixture of anguish and fury. Gently, she laid the Readerโs lifeless form on the ground, brushing her fingers over their face one final time before rising to confront Adam.
โYou will pay for this,โ she growled, her voice trembling with a mixture of grief and righteous rage.
Adam smirked, his amusement palpable. โA noble sacrifice,โ he sneered, โbut ultimately futile. Do you truly think you can defeat me?โ
Charlieโs fists clenched, a radiant energy surging around her like a blazing inferno. โThey believed in me,โ she said, her voice steady with newfound resolve. โAnd thatโs all I need.โ
โฆ.
Time passed. Charlie, fueled by the memory of the Readerโs sacrifice, rallied her allies and launched an unrelenting campaign against Adam. Despite her efforts, his power seemed insurmountable, feeding on the despair of Hellโs denizens. Victory felt increasingly out of reach.
Then, on the eve of their final confrontation, a shadow emerged from the depths of Hell. A figure clad in dark, ethereal armor stepped forward. It was the Reader, reborn as a sinner. Their once-bright eyes now glowed with an eerie crimson light, and their form radiated an unholy power, wreathed in the fiery essence of the underworld.
The process of their transformation had been excruciating. Their soul, once human, had been forged anew by Hellโs brutal forces, reshaped into something darker yet no less determined. Though memories of their sacrifice lingered, the pain of their rebirth was fresh, their mortal body replaced by this fearsome new form. And through it all, their unwavering resolve to protect Charlie had kept them from succumbing to despair.
Charlie stared in disbelief. โYouโฆ youโre alive?โ
โNot alive,โ the Reader replied, their voice resonating with an otherworldly echo. โBut not gone, either.โ They flexed their clawed fingers, their new strength radiating a fearsome energy. โIโve been given another chance, Charlie. This time, Iโll finish what I started.โ
Their reunion was brief. The urgency of the coming battle left no time for explanations or reconciliation. Though Charlieโs allies eyed the Reader with wary suspicion, her faith in them remained steadfast. Together, they prepared for the final confrontation, the weight of their shared history binding them tighter than ever.
The battle that followed was cataclysmic. Adam faced Charlie and her allies with confidence born of overwhelming power, but he had not anticipated the Readerโs return. They fought with a ferocity born of their new existence, their movements precise and relentless, as though they had been remade for this very purpose.
Charlie and the Reader moved in perfect tandem. While her radiant magic clashed against Adamโs dark energy, the Readerโs newfound strength exploited every opening. Each strike they delivered was fueled by the memory of their sacrifice and the hope they had sworn to protect.
As Adamโs focus remained on Charlieโs unyielding assault, the Reader slipped behind him, their steps silent and deliberate. With a dagger forged from their own soulโs torment, they struck. The blade pierced Adamโs back, driving deep into his core. His roar of agony echoed through the chamber as his power faltered.
โThis is for everyone youโve hurt,โ the Reader growled, their voice steady and resolute. โAnd for the hope you tried to destroy.โ
Adam collapsed, his form dissolving into ash and shadow. Silence settled over the chamber. Charlie approached the Reader, her expression a mixture of relief and sadness.
โYou didnโt have to do this,โ she said softly.
The Reader turned to her, their fiery aura dimming. โI couldnโt let your hope die, Charlie. Itโs the only light in this darkness.โ
For a moment, they stood in silence, the weight of their journey pressing down on them. The Reader knew they could never return to who they once were, but in their new form, they had found purpose. As long as Charlieโs dream endured, they would stand by her side, a sinner redeemed by their belief in a better Hell.
โฆ.
In the aftermath, Charlieโs vision for Hell began to take root. Word of Adamโs defeat spread, and for the first time, whispers of change stirred among the damned. The Reader became a symbol of hopeโa sinner who had found redemption, proof that even in the depths of Hell, transformation was possible.
Charlie and the Reader worked tirelessly, forging alliances and dismantling the oppressive structures that had long defined Hell. Their efforts inspired others to join their cause, paving the way for a new era. The road ahead was fraught with challenges, but neither wavered.

Dad! Simon
You find him in the bedroom, sitting on the floor with his back against the bed, legs stretched out, a shoebox balanced on his thigh. And, scattered around himโlike fallen leavesโare photographs.
You lean against the doorframe, arms crossed, a small smile tugging at your lips. โPlanning a scrapbook?โ
Simon doesnโt look up, but the corner of his mouth twitches. Not quite a smile. Just recognition.
"Heโs gotten so big now," he mutters, lifting a picture between his fingers. He turns it toward youโyour son, a newborn, swaddled tight, impossibly small in his arms. "Look at thisโhead barely bigger than my palm."
You step inside, lowering yourself beside him. The photos form a mosaic across the carpetโa timeline of a life measured in firsts.
First ultrasound. First bath. First wobbly steps.
His first birthday, cake frosting, smeared across chubby cheeks, fingers reaching for Simonโs.
His first time on Simonโs shoulders, tiny hands gripping his head, giggling like heโd never known a world without laughter.
You pick up a more recent oneโyour son at five, sitting on Simonโs lap, eyes bright, smile wide. He looks just like him. Same sharp gaze, same shape of the mouth. Itโs almost funny how undeniable it is.
Simon exhales, slow and steady, his thumb tracing over the glossy surface.
"Simon ...do you want me to - "
His jaw tightens, just for a second, before he lets out a quiet huff. โNo, itโs fine. Thinkinโ of puttinโ some in an album.โ
You donโt catch him on the lie.
Because what you donโt knowโwhat you wonโt know for a long timeโis that there will be no album.
The photos will go back into the box. Just like they always do.
And later that night, after the house has settled into quiet, after youโve both gone to bed, heโll slip the box under his side of the nightstandโwithin reach, always.
And when itโs timeโwhen the bags are packed, when his boots are laced, when the house is still dark with sleepโheโll take the smallest, most recent one.
-- where your son is missing a front tooth, grinning wide, arms thrown around your neck like he never wants to let go.
Heโll fold it carefully, tuck it into the pocket of his gear.
Because the thought of not having it, of not carrying that proof of life with him, is unbearable.
So he keeps them.
And sometimes, when heโs halfway across the world, when the silence stretches too long and the weight in his chest feels too heavy to bear, heโll take that photo out.
Run his thumb over the edges.
Remind himself of whatโs waiting for him at home.
Just for a little while.
Just to hold on.
A/N: Small little blurb I decided to write in the meantime of writing others Christmas themed stories. Best of all, itโs with one of my favorite creeps, Toby! Remember to stay hydrated and happy holidays! :)
TW: None, just pure holiday fluff!
The snow fell softly outside your cabin window, a pristine white blanket covering the forest floor. The gentle crackle of the fireplace was the only sound as you curled up in your favorite chair, a mug of hot cocoa warming your hands. You had always loved the quiet serenity of the woods, especially during the holiday season. This year, however, felt differentโan unsettling weight lingered in the air, like a shadow just out of sight.
You glanced toward the clock on the wall. It was nearing midnight, and you had no intentions of staying up much later. The holidays were always a bit lonely for you, being so far removed from town. But this year, you werenโt truly alone.
The sound of the door creaking open made you smile. "Toby? That you?" you called, setting your mug down.
"Who else would it be?" came the familiar, raspy voice of your boyfriend. Toby stepped into the cabin, stomping snow off his boots and pulling down the scarf covering his face. His goggles reflected the warm glow of the fire as he walked over to you, his jittery movements as familiar to you as the sound of the wind outside.
"Youโre late," you teased, standing to greet him. "I was starting to think you got lost."
Toby chuckled, a sharp, uneven sound that still managed to warm your heart. "Wouldnโt be the first time," he said, leaning down to press a quick kiss to your forehead. "Had to make sure no one was following me, you know."
You frowned, worry flickering in your chest. "You think someoneโs out there?"
He shrugged, pulling off his gloves and tossing them onto the table. "Maybe. Maybe not. But Iโm here now, so no need to worry."
Easier said than done, you thought, but you nodded anyway. "Alright. You hungry? I made some soup."
Tobyโs eyes lit up behind his goggles. "Hell yeah. Youโre the best, you know that?"
You rolled your eyes but couldnโt help the smile that spread across your face. Moments like thisโthe rare, quiet times when Toby let his guard downโmade all the chaos of your relationship worth it.
As you ladled soup into bowls, Toby settled himself on the rug in front of the fire, his jittery movements gradually calming in the warmth of the room. You joined him, handing him a bowl and sitting cross-legged beside him.
"So," you said, watching him take a bite, "any plans for tomorrow?"
He glanced at you, his expression unreadable behind the goggles. "You mean Christmas?"
You nodded. "Yeah. Thought we could maybe do something. Just the two of us."
Toby was silent for a moment, staring into the fire. Then he set his bowl down and leaned back on his hands. "You really like all this holiday stuff, huh?"
"I guess," you said, shrugging. "Itโs nice to have a reason to celebrate. And itโs our first Christmas together, so I thoughtโฆ I donโt know."
He tilted his head, a small smile tugging at his lips. "Youโre cute when youโre nervous, you know that?"
You flushed, nudging him with your elbow. "Shut up. Iโm serious."
"I know," he said, his voice softening. "And yeah. We can do something. Whatever you want."
Your heart swelled at his words. Toby wasnโt exactly the romantic type, but moments like this reminded you just how much he cared in his own, unique way.
As the night deepened, the two of you shared quiet stories and memories by the fire. The soft light cast flickering shadows across Tobyโs face, and you found yourself studying himโthe way his hair fell messily over his goggles, the way his lips curved into a faint smile when he was truly at ease. He caught you staring and raised an eyebrow.
"What?" he asked, a smirk playing on his lips.
"Nothing," you said quickly, though your cheeks burned. "Justโฆ you look happy."
His smirk softened into something more genuine. "Thatโs โcause I am. Being here with youโฆ itโs nice."
You reached out, hesitating for only a moment before brushing your fingers against his cheek. He stiffened slightly but didnโt pull away. "You deserve to be happy, Toby," you said softly.
For a moment, he didnโt respond. Then, with a sudden burst of confidence, he leaned forward and captured your lips in a kiss. It was hesitant at first, almost unsure, but when you responded, threading your fingers through his hair, he deepened it. His hands found your waist, pulling you closer until there was no space left between you.
The kiss left you both breathless, and when he pulled back, his cheeks were flushed, though whether from the fire or the kiss, you couldnโt tell. "Iโฆ Iโm not great at this stuff," he admitted, rubbing the back of his neck. "But Iโm trying. For you.โ
Your heart ached at his vulnerability. "Youโre doing perfect," you said, cupping his face and pressing another kiss to his lips. "Youโre perfect."
The rest of the night passed in a blur of warmth and stolen kisses. By the time the first rays of dawn broke through the trees, you were curled up together on the rug, a blanket draped over you both. Tobyโs arm was slung protectively around you, his breaths slow and even as he slept.
As you watched the snow continue to fall outside, you couldnโt help but feel a deep sense of contentment. Life with Toby was far from normal, but it was yours. And for now, that was enough.

Summary: In the command center, you navigate chaos as the task force tackles a high-stakes mission to stop Makarovโs sinister plan. With tension thick and comms crackling with urgency, everything spirals when a trap is sprung. As you desperately try to piece together whatโs happening, silence fallsโfractured by a single, devastating revelation. Now, the weight of loss presses in, and a heartfelt letter reveals truths you never dared to hope for. In the aftermath of heroism and heartbreak, youโre left to grapple with a question: how do you move forward when your heart is still on the battlefield?
Johnny โSoapโ MacTavish x Female Reader
The hum of the command center buzzed in your ears as you hunched over your console, fingers flying across the keyboard. The task force was out in the field, and as always, you stayed behind, monitoring feeds, guiding them through the chaos. You werenโt a soldier, not like them. Your battlefield was the screens in front of you, and your weapon was information.
But your heart was out there, with him.
Youโd been in love with Johnny MacTavishโSoapโsince the day you first met him. His humor, his energy, the way he could light up even the darkest situations. Over the years, youโd become close. You werenโt sure if he knew how you felt, but you carried it quietly, content to be near him, to hear his voice over comms, to know he was safe.
Until now.
The team had been deployed after intercepting intel about Makarovโs latest scheme: a plot to take the London Underground hostage and destroy the tunnels with explosives. The weight of the mission pressed on you as you worked tirelessly to support them from afar.
The comms were chaotic. โWeโve got eyes on the first device,โ Price barked, his voice steady despite the urgency.
โCopy that,โ you replied, checking the schematics. โDisarm sequence is live. Watch for a second fail-safeโMakarov doesnโt make it easy.โ
Through the comms, you could hear Soapโs familiar voice, calm but focused. โAye, lass, weโll handle it. Keep the coffee warm for me, yeah?โ
Your lips twitched into a small smile despite the tension. โJust donโt blow yourself up, MacTavish.โ
Minutes ticked by, each one feeling like an hour as you listened to their progress. Then came the first sign something was wrong.
โBloody hell, itโs a trap!โ Gazโs voice was sharp, panic lacing his words.
โWhatโs going on?โ you asked, leaning closer to the console. Static crackled in response, and your stomach twisted.
โWeโve got company,โ Price growled. โMakarovโs here. Heโโ
The line cut out momentarily, and when it returned, chaos erupted. Gunfire, shouting, and the unmistakable sound of a struggle filled your headset.
โSoap, disarm the bomb!โ Price ordered, his voice strained.
โIโm trying, Captain, butโโ Soapโs words were interrupted by a sharp crack, followed by a muffled cry.
โSoap!โ you shouted, but there was no response.
More shouting. Then a single gunshot rang out, deafening in the silence that followed.
โMacTavish!โ Priceโs voice was raw with anguish.
Your heart stopped. The comms descended into fragmented phrases, ringing with panic. You clutched the edge of your desk, trying to piece together what was happening, but no one was answering your calls.
Minutes dragged by like an eternity before Priceโs voice came through again, quieter, broken. โWeโre en route back to base.โ
โIs everyone...?โ You couldnโt finish the question.
No response.
You bolted from the command center, racing to the front of the base. The rain was relentless, soaking through your clothes as you stood on the tarmac, watching the aircraft approach. Anxiety clawed at your chest as the ramp lowered and the team emerged.
Price. Gaz. Ghost.
Your eyes searched desperately for Soap, but he wasnโt there. Confused, you stepped forward. โWhereโs Johnny?โ
The silence that followed was louder than any answer. Priceโs face was pale, his eyes hollow. Ghost looked away, his hands clenched into fists.
โWhere is he?โ you repeated, your voice trembling.
Price stopped in front of you, his expression crumbling. โHeโs gone, (Y/N).โ
โNo,โ you said, stepping back, your head shaking violently. โNo, heโs not. He wouldnโtโhe promised me!โ
โHe died protecting us,โ Price said, his voice thick. โMakarov shot him. Threw me to the ground. Soapโhe got back up. Fought to stop him. He saved my life.โ
Your knees buckled, and you sank to the ground, the cold rain mixing with the tears streaming down your face. โNo,โ you whispered. โNot Johnny. He canโt beโโ
โHe was a hero,โ Ghost said quietly, his voice uncharacteristically soft.
A hero. That word echoed in your mind, but it did nothing to dull the pain. Johnny was more than a hero. He was your light, your reason to smile even when the world seemed bleak.
In the hours that followed, you learned the details: how Makarov had ambushed them, how Johnny had been disarming the bomb when Makarov appeared. How heโd been shot protecting Price and fought to his last breath to stop the madman.
The weight of his sacrifice crushed you, and yet, through your grief, you couldnโt help but feel proud. He had always been brave, always selfless.
Later, sitting in the barracks, you clutched his dog tags in your hand, the cold metal biting into your palm. A letter rested on your lap, one Price had handed you with trembling hands. It was written in Johnnyโs messy scrawl.

The tears came hard and fast as you read his words, clutching the letter to your chest. Your hands shook as you held the letter close, his words cutting deeper than any wound. Heโd been everything to you, and now he was gone, leaving only memories and a hollow ache in his place.
As you sat in the quiet, the rain still tapping against the window, you whispered, โYou never know a good thing until itโs gone.โ
You hadnโt just lost a good thing. Youโd lost the best. And now, all you could do was carry his legacy and make sure the world never forgot the man who had been your everything.
The rain continued to fall as you sat there, clutching the letter. You didnโt know how to move forward, but you knew you had to try. For him. For Johnny.
A/N: crying because I love Johnny so much, I will never forgive Activision for killing him off. I hope this feeds you guys, Iโve been sick and havenโt been writing as much.. Remember to stay hydrated and eat plenty of food, you are loved. โค๏ธ

You were always there for Powder.
From the moment you two stumbled into each otherโs lives as kids, scuffing your knees and laughing through the grime of Zaun, you knew she was special. Powder, with her bright blue hair, endless dreams, and that mischievous light in her eyesโshe made you believe in something more. Maybe it was the way she rambled on about her silly inventions, or the way her hands danced when she explained her wildest ideas, her voice full of hope. Or maybe it was because you saw her as she saw you: someone who wanted to belong.
You loved her. Even as kids, it was there, silent but true. Not that you ever said anything. How could you? She was Powder, your Powder. The girl who wanted to ride a blimp and touch the clouds. The girl who dreamed of the topside skies.
โโบโโ โโโโโฑเผ๏ธ โข เผ๏ธโฐโโโโ โโบโโ
Then it all fell apart.
You remembered the smoke, the shouting, the chaos that swallowed your home whole. Vander was gone. Vi was gone. And Powderโฆ
No, Jinx.
They said she vanished. They whispered about the girl with the bombs, the one who burned bright like a firework and destroyed everything in her wake. The Zaunites called her a ghost, a demon, Silcoโs pet monster.
But you couldnโt accept that. You couldnโt believe it.
You spent weeks wandering through the debris-strewn streets of the Lanes. Every alley, every shadow seemed to hold a trace of her. You heard whispers of Silco, of strange explosions, but none of it led you to her. The places you once played togetherโthe old sewer tunnel, the abandoned warehousesโwere empty now, silent ruins filled with ghosts.
The nights were the worst. Youโd sit under the broken pipes of your hideout, staring at the dim glow of Piltover above, wondering if Powder was watching the same light. You whispered to the darkness, hoping she might hear you. โCome back, Powder. Please.โ
But there was only silence.
โโบโโ โโโโโฑเผ๏ธ โข เผ๏ธโฐโโโโ โโบโโ
Months became years, and time changed you. The streets taught you how to survive, how to scrape by when the world turned cold. You worked odd jobs, scavenging parts from scrap heaps, running errands for merchants who barely paid you a coin. But you never stopped dreaming for something betterโnot for yourself, but for her.
You still saw her sometimes, in glimpses. A flash of blue down a crowded street. A laugh that sounded just like hers, only to turn into static when you followed. You knew it wasnโt real. She was a ghost now, the ghost of your Powder.
And yet, you pressed on. You worked harder, pushing yourself through the grime and the hunger. You told yourself it was what Powder wouldโve wanted. Weโll go live topside with Vi and Vander, weโll make something of ourselves she would say tinkering with her latest invention. And you tried.
โโบโโ โโโโโฑเผ๏ธ โข เผ๏ธโฐโโโโ โโบโโ
Eventually, you saved enough to get out of Zaunโeven just for a little while. The topside was everything Powder once described to you, from the clean cobblestone streets to the strange, humming machines in Piltoverโs marketplace. You marveled at it all, feeling out of place yet unable to tear your gaze away. And that was when you saw it: a blimp soaring high above the streets, its silver hull gleaming in the sunlight.
Youโd promised her once. Weโll ride one together someday.
It hurt, but you paid what little you had for a single ride.
When you stepped onto the deck, your heart pounded. The wind whipped through your hair as the blimp climbed higher and higher, leaving the city behind. Below, the sprawling streets of Piltover gave way to clouds, soft and endless.
It was beautiful.
You closed your eyes and let yourself imagine that she was there beside you, her small hand in yours, her face full of wonder. โSee, Powder? I made it. Just like you wanted.โ
The words were stolen by the wind, but you hoped she heard them wherever she was.
โโบโโ โโโโโฑเผ๏ธ โข เผ๏ธโฐโโโโ โโบโโ
It happened on a day like any other.
You were wandering through an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the Lanes, searching for scrap to sell. The air smelled like rust and smoke, and the metal creaked beneath your boots. It was late in the evening, the shadows long and the silence unnerving. You had learned to tune it out over the yearsโthe way Zaun felt like it was always waiting to swallow you whole.
Then you saw her.
A flash of blue.
You froze in place, your heart slamming against your ribs. At first, you thought it was just another hallucination, a cruel trick of the fading light. But then she moved, the unmistakable sound of footsteps echoing across the concrete.
Your voice caught in your throat. โPowder?โ
She turned, slowly, and for a moment, your world stopped.
It was herโand yet it wasnโt. The girl you remembered, the girl you loved, had changed. Her hair, once braided carefully with your help, now hung in wild, tangled strands. Her clothes were a chaotic patchwork of leather and belts, torn and smeared with soot. Her eyesโฆ they werenโt the soft blue you remembered. They glowed pink, sharp and unnatural, like embers left too long in the fire.
Her gaze settled on you, and she tilted her head, smiling in a way that didnโt feel quite right. โHavenโt heard that name in a while,โ she said, her voice sing-songy, almost mocking.
Your chest tightened. โItโs you,โ you whispered, tears pooling in your eyes. โItโs really you. I thought you were gone.โ
The smile widened. โIโm not gone. Iโm justโฆ better.โ
โPowder,โ you stepped closer, ignoring the alarm bells going off in your mind. You had to be sure. โItโs me. Iโm here. I looked for you. I never stopped looking.โ
Something flickered in her gazeโa hesitation, like she recognized you. But it disappeared almost as quickly as it came.
โJinx,โ she corrected. โThatโs my name now. Jinx.โ
The word made your stomach drop. Youโd heard the name whispered in hushed voices across the Lanes. The girl with the bombs. Silcoโs girl. But this wasnโt Jinx. This was Powder. It had to be.
โPowder, please,โ you begged softly. โItโs me. Remember? Iโฆ I love you.โ
Her smile faltered, and for the briefest moment, you saw her. Powder. The girl you shared everything with. The girl who promised you both would touch the sky one day.
You surged forward, wrapping your arms around her trembling frame. โYouโre okay,โ you whispered against her shoulder. โYouโre safe. Youโre home now.โ
Then it snapped.
Her body went rigid, and suddenly you were shoved back, her strength far greater than you remembered. You stumbled, confusion turning into panic as you saw the wild look in her eyesโeyes darting around like they were chasing something you couldnโt see.
โNo, no, no,โ she muttered, hands clutching at her temples. โYouโre not real. Youโre not real.โ
โPowder, itโs me!โ you cried. โIโm right here! Look at me, please!โ
Her gaze snapped back to you, sharp as glass. โLiar,โ she hissed. โYouโre one of them. Youโre just like them!โ
You opened your mouth to plead againโฆ and thatโs when you saw it.
The gun in her hand.
Your heart stopped. โPowderโฆโ
โJinx! Itโs Jinx now!โ she screamed, her finger trembling on the trigger. Her pink eyes flickered, caught between recognition and madness. For a moment, you swore you saw tears there, too.
โPlease,โ you whispered, stepping forward. โI love you, Powder. I always have.โ
The words hung in the air, fragile and fleeting.
Her expression brokeโjust for a second.
Thenโฆ Bang.
โโบโโ โโโโโฑเผ๏ธ โข เผ๏ธโฐโโโโ โโบโโ
The world was quiet.
The pain was immediate and blinding, burning through your chest as you fell to your knees. You gasped for breath, your vision swimming with spots of color.
JinxโPowderโstared at you, her eyes wide, her hands shaking around the smoking gun. The grin had vanished. In its place was horror, her lips quivering as she dropped the weapon to the ground.
โNoโฆ no, no, noโฆโ she whispered, stumbling forward. โI didnโt mean toโฆ I didnโt mean to!โ
You tried to speak, but nothing came. The air was too thin, too far away. All you could do was look at herโthe girl youโd loved since you were kids. The girl who dreamed of touching the sky.
Your vision blurred, and as the darkness crept in, you thought of the blimp. The sunlight. The clouds stretching out forever.
โFor you, Powder,โ you mouthed, your lips barely moving.
And thenโฆ nothing.
โโบโโ โโโโโฑเผ๏ธ โข เผ๏ธโฐโโโโ โโบโโ
Jinx sat there for a long time, cradling your lifeless body.
In the silence, the hallucinations whispered their cruel mockery. But for once, Jinx didnโt listen. She just stared at you, the only person who ever loved her, truly loved her, and wondered if she had finally broken something she couldnโt fix.
The sky, somewhere above Zaun, remained blue.

Johnny who became ridiculously jealous of the giant seal plushie that took most of his space on the bed as you cuddled with it to sleep.
So he bought a seal onesie for himself, because of course the most logical solution to compete with the plushie, is to be the plushie

Iโm just teasing! But thank you! I love yโallโs enthusiasm for this story, I honestly thought it was kind of sloppy and all over the place while I was writing it (๐ ). Iโve been away for a little bit so I havenโt been around to writing a second part yet! But donโt worry lovelies, weโll see what fate has in store for our dear reader. :)
Ghost: Luv, hurry up, we're gonna be late Y/N, coming out of the dressing room: How do I look? Ghost: Ghost, unbuttoning his shirt: Oh we're definitely going to be late
Thinking about designationless!reader au, how the boys would spend HOURS searching for candles that properly represented their scents so reader would feel included in the nest
Anyway just wanted to say I LOVE your writing and you've got me inspired to write my own little designationless!reader au (which if I ever do post, I will tag you for credits โค๏ธโค๏ธ), its just has so many possibilities
Every time I see you post, blog, wtver this website wants to call it, my day gets a little brighter :)
-๐ฝ
omg thank you so so so much anon?? you are so very sweet!! i am very happy to know you like my stuff and felt inspired by it!! i hope you enjoy this, your idea was wonderful! <33 omegaverse masterlist
The idea had started innocently enough.
Gaz had mentioned it one night while they were snuggled in the nest, you nestled warm and comfy between them all. Youโd fallen asleep on Priceโs chest, Soapโs arm thrown over your waist, Ghostโs steady breathing brushing your temple, and Gaz quietly watching from the edge.
โShe canโt smell us,โ Gaz had murmured, musing and cutting through the peaceful silence. โButโฆ what if she could? Just a little? For the nest.โ
It was a seed of an idea that quickly took root in all of them.
The next day, they found themselves walking through shops theyโd normally never step foot in- boutiques, candle stores, even a few farmersโ markets. Price looked utterly out of place amongst rows of colorful jars, his gruff demeanor clashing with the delicate scents wafting around him. Soap, on the other hand, took to it with a determination that made the staff wary as he sniffed candle after candle, holding them up to Gaz and Ghost for confirmation.
โThis oneโs close, isnโt it?โ he asked, holding up a jar labeled Amber Woods. He shoved it under Ghostโs nose, earning an irritated growl.
โToo sweet,โ Ghost muttered then, shaking his head. โTry again.โ
Gaz was off in another aisle, holding up a candle labeled Vanilla Bourbon and frowning. โThis isnโt right either. Itโs tooโฆ fake.โ He sighed, setting it down with a heavy thunk. โHowโs it this hard to find something that fits?โ
Price stood in the corner, his brow furrowed as he examined the names on the candles. He knew and had been told many times his cedarwood scent was sharp and earthy, grounding in a way that none of these synthetic imitations could capture. He picked one up- Smoked Cedar- and took a deep inhale.
โNot bad." He said after a moment, setting it aside in their โmaybeโ pile.
They spent hours combing through the store, moving from candle jars to wax melts to essential oil blends. They argued with each other quietly, then with the amused store employees, their tones growing increasingly frustrated with each other as they tried to find scents that truly represented themselves.
โItโs just a candle, sirs,โ One employee, clearly annoyed with them, chuckled, running a hand through his hair. โDoes it really matter this much?โ
Ghostโs dark eyes snapped to him, his voice low and dangerous, not helped by the balaclava and cap he wore. โItโs not just a candle. Itโs for someone.โ
That shut the employee up quickly.
Eventually, after what felt like an eternity and much sniffing, they settled on a few options.
When they brought the candles back to the nest (oh, how they loved that you were beginning to spend more and more of your free time there), you blinked up at them, confused by their triumphant expressions and the little bag Price held in his hand. They looked a little too proud of themselves.
โWhatโs all this?โ You asked, sitting up from your spot. I
โSomething for you.โ Price said simply, his voice soft as he placed candles on the table.
Soap grinned, almost vibrating with excitement and pride as he gestured for you to come closer. โGo on, lass. Smell โem.โ
You leaned forward, hesitantly uncapping the first candle. The cedarwood hit you first, earthy and grounding, and your eyes fluttered shut as you hummed in delight. You glanced up at Price when you heard a deep rumble you've come to understand as prideful.
โThis is.... you, isn't it?โ you realized, earning a small nod from him.
You went through each one, inhaling the soft citrus of Soapโs, the richness of Ghostโs smoky scent, the soothing vanilla of Gazโs. By the time you finished, you stared at them with something akin to more awe than the sun has for its orbiting planets.
โYou did this... for me?โ
โOf course,โ Gaz pressed a kiss to your temple. โWanted you to feel like youโre part of us. Always.โ
You didnโt know what to say, but as they lit the candles and pulled you back into the nest, you felt surrounded by them in a way you never had before.
And for the first time, you felt as if you could... be like them. For once, you understood what their scents were like- a part of their world for just a moment.
You will be keeping those candles.
Hi ๐, love the previous one. Can u do Vi x Reader, where Vi and Caitlyn were patrolling the streets. Vi wants to go home and spend time with her girlfriend. Then they notice a crash in an alley. Vi and Caitlyn went to see what it was but then they saw a movement but they canโt see, so they use night vision and see a women who is drinking a rat (Like โMy Babysitter is a Vampire). Vi was squinting till she slightly notices that person saying โwait is thatโ. After she said that, Reader turned around and saw Vi and Caitlyn. Her eyes were glowing red and she had blood on her fangs. She hissed a little and that scared Vi and Caitlyn. Vi ranned off while Caitlyn was running behind her. Viโs heart was beating like crazy and saying, โMy freaking girlfriend is a vampire.โ Caitlyn told Vi that there had to be an explanation. Then they saw Reader popped in front of them and Vi used Caitlyn as a shield. Reader told them that she can explain because she was nervous. Vi eyes softened and she said okay.
A/N: I absolutely ADORE any kind of monster!Reader fan fiction (theyโre one of my favorites ๐ซฃ). I hope you enjoy this little blurb, and thank you for your request!

TW: Blood, Death of an Animal.
Reader is a Female!
The night had been long, and Vi was growing restless. She and Caitlyn had been patrolling the dimly lit streets of Piltover for hours, but all Vi wanted was to head home and spend some much-needed time with her girlfriend. The streets were unusually quiet, save for the distant hum of city life, and Vi was moments away from calling it a night when a sudden crash echoed through a nearby alley.
Both enforcers stiffened. Caitlynโs sharp eyes darted toward the sound, and without hesitation, the two made their way toward the source of the commotion. The alley was shrouded in darkness, shadows twisting and shifting with every flicker of a streetlamp.
As they approached, something moved in the shadows. It was fastโtoo fast for them to see clearly. Caitlyn adjusted her rifle, switching to night vision mode, and Vi squinted into the darkness, trying to make sense of what they were seeing.
Thatโs when they spotted her.
A woman stood crouched near the edge of the alley, a struggling rat in her grasp. Viโs breath hitched as the woman tilted her head back, sharp fangs glinting in the faint light as she bit into the creature. Blood dripped from her mouth, and her eyes gleamed a haunting, otherworldly red.
โWhat theโฆโ Vi muttered, her heart hammering in her chest.
The womanโs head snapped toward them, sensing their presence. She stepped closer, her movements unnervingly smooth, and her glowing eyes locked onto Vi and Caitlyn. Viโs breath caught in her throat as recognition dawned.
โWaitโฆ is thatโฆโ she whispered, her voice trailing off.
Before she could finish, the woman fully turned to face them, and Viโs world spun.
It was you.
The glowing red eyes, the blood staining your lips, and the way your sharp fangs glinted in the dim lightโit all clicked into place. You hissed softly, the sound low and threatening, and it sent chills down Viโs spine.
Panic took over.
Vi bolted.
โVi!โ Caitlyn shouted, running after her partner, though her own heart was racing.
Viโs feet pounded against the cobblestones, her mind a whirlwind of disbelief and fear. My girlfriend is a vampire. My freaking girlfriend is a vampire.
Caitlyn finally caught up, grabbing Viโs arm to steady her. โVi, stop! There has to be an explanation for this.โ
โAn explanation?โ Vi shot back, her voice laced with panic. โYou saw her! Sheโshe had fangs! She was drinking blood! What part of that needs explaining?โ
Before Caitlyn could respond, a blur of motion interrupted them.
You appeared in front of them in an instant, your movements impossibly fast. Both women froze, startled by your sudden arrival. Viโs instinctive reaction was to shove Caitlyn in front of her like a human shield.
You raised your hands in a placating gesture, your expression nervous. โWait! Please, let me explain!โ you pleaded, your voice trembling slightly.
Viโs wide eyes softened as she looked at youโher heart torn between fear and familiarity. You were still you, and despite everything she had just witnessed, she could see the same nervous energy in your gaze that she had come to love.
โOkay,โ Vi said cautiously, her voice barely above a whisper. โStart talking.โ
