And it all came tumbling down

by: Snarkymuch

Rated: T

Warnings: vaguely referenced/implied past sexual abuse, referenced self-harm

Summary: Skip is released on parole, and that breaks something in Peter. He begins to shut down again. Tony is there for him when he needs it.

READ ON AO3

May wasn’t home when the call came, and Peter had answered the phone. There was no hesitation or prickling of his senses, nothing to signal how the one call would shatter his fragile world.

The voice on the other side of the phone had been cautious and polite, in a way that put him on edge. The woman asked for May but settled for Peter. He didn’t listen as she introduced and explained her position with the district attorney. The only part he heard was her saying, “Steven Wescott was paroled this morning.”

So I’ve gotten into webtoons over the past few months and I just wanted to share some of the really great ones I’ve finished and am still reading (because they’re still ongoing ;-;)

If you love historical, fantasy and romance like me, try these!

COMPLETE:

My Dear Cold-Blooded King

My first webtoon and what a gateway it was! STUNNING ART, captivating story line and a good ole love triangle to make my heart tingle.

The Reason Why Raelina Ended Up At The Duke’s Mansion

Another winner! I read this over the course of a day. That’s how good it was. This also was my gateway into the “oh no I’ve transversed space and time somehow and ended up in this new life and well, I guess now I’ll make the best of it” and boy, was I into it.

A Beauty, A Fatal Concubine

This one recently ended and took my heart with it! What a drama this would make honestly. A hardworking and clever protagonist who outsmarts everyone - we love to see it.

Ellin’s Solhwa

I’ve only finished this one in the past hour and did I love it so much! Another one of those “oops I got sent back in time into someone else’s body” but such a good story.

Ginger and the Cursed Prince

Recently completed and what a lovely ride it was - our once antagonist tries to change the narrative and make herself the protagonist but it’s not so easy when our male lead can read minds…

ONGOING:

The Remarried Empress

Boy, oh boy, do I have nothing but LOVE for this series. Again, a clever female protagonist just trying to do her job but her idiot husband keeps getting in the way so she finds herself a new man! LOVE.

Beatrice

Another one of those “I have another chance at life” webtoons with an adorably in love male lead who can’t quite figure out how to tell her just yet.

My First Night With The Duke

The “oh no I’ve somehow ended up in this novel” trope which I’ve come to adore. Our protagonist is hilarious and plucky and sends our poor duke into a tizzy.

Like Wind On A Dry Branch

The least amount of chapters so far and a bit of a slow burn but we’ll get there eventually. So far also a very different story compared to the others

Men of the Harem

Reverse harem? A female emperor? Yes please.

Under the Oak Tree (I ran out of space for pretty pictures) - also a slow burn but we’re building up

Lucia - a second chance but very dark background for the hero!

I am the Male Lead’s Ex-Girlfriend - I only just found this one but it’s already so so good; I love buttholes to live to regret their choices

I Don’t Love You Anymore - our female lead finally puts down her foot, gives up on her one sided love and moves on - and of course that means the idiot she loved only just realises he’s an idiot and wants her back. Too bad for him, she’s already got herself an even better man! And he’s a prince!

Father, I Don’t Want to Get Married! - combination of “help I’m in a novel” and the novel villainess gets a second chance at life - but how can her father be that good looking? Like I love the male lead, he’s adorable and slowly understanding that he’s attracted to her, but the father is actually melting me slowly

Villainous Violet - ditto the above trope but with so many men now in love with her and a super pissed off antagonist!

His Majesty’s Proposal - this time it’s the emperor doing the chasing and I love it

First Miss Reborn - 180+ chapters of revenge with our intelligent heroine foiling schemes at every turn and our devoted prince supporting and loving her every step of the way :’)

Midnight Rain - very different from all the others I’ve mentioned; starts out from kids to adults (we’ve only just reached the teens) but there’s horrible rich people, an illegitimate son and a budding love triangle.

Death is the Only Ending for the Villainess - I’ve heard a lot of buzz regarding this one and I love reverse harem and I like the fact that we get to quite literally see her progression in the love percentage bars above all the male leads’ heads!

Who Made Me a Princess - ngl, it took me a couple of chapters to get into this one but I pushed through because I’ve seen a lot of good reviews about this and it has not disappointed. Not as much romance as the above but the hot daddy theme is getting to me…

The Lady’s Law of Survival - a weak duchess dies and her body is taken over by a spirit who’s had several failed lives and is determined to make this one work - by kicking butt and taking names and getting revenge for the previous body’s owner! I really like this one

I’ll be the Matriarch in this Life - I finished all the available chapters in this so quickly; another reborn heroine who’s already slaying them all at the age of 8

The Reason Why Ophelia Can’t Get Away From the Duke - this one’s dark but seriously so good…new step siblings lose their parents in a tragic accident, the stepsister wants to leave but the stepbrother won’t let her? Intriguing. What’s the story behind the parents’ death?

I Became the Ugly Lady - a second chance, magic and mystery! I’m a sucker for a personality makeover and then all the good relationships that come with it!

The Villainess Lives Twice - a marriage of convenience, carefully crafted plans, and a hint of true love breaking through

Please give them a go - the art is gorgeous, the storytelling incredible and the memories fantastic. They’re the reason I’ve been waking into the early hours of the morning.

I’ll keep updating this post as I find more because there are so many and I wanna spread the love. I might also be a tad bit obsessed...

on a more serious note my feelings about harry potter remain complicated and leaning negative but on the whole i’ve become more defiant about what i’m willing to let people take from me. i refuse to let that woman take the joy that harry potter has brought me at various points in my life away from me. i refuse to let her actions taint memories and diminish the friends i found through a mutual interest. i was literally part of the wedding party for two of my best friends last month and i met them both a decade ago on hp tumblr. she can’t take that from us. she’ll have to rip the love from my cold dead hands.

This is the angst I need today 😌

Yooo i never thought about this before but u know how Jason literally died lmao and in some issues he has like autopsy scars apparently and i was wondering if you’d consider Jason with reader who he recently started dating and they hadn’t seen him shirtless yet and he’s kinda stressed about how they’ll react (maybe they already know what happened) to seeing the scars? Maybe just fluffy with slight angst if u will bonus points if they kiss his scars please

Jason knew his scars told a story.

Scars always came with a story.

Sometimes they were winded recounts of bravery and badassery. Sometimes the stories revolved around an incredibly stupid drunken night. Or a treasured childhood memory brimming with curiosity and consequence.

He had scars to fit the bill of each.

But the ones that were most daunting, most pronounced on his skin, were the ones that proved to him that he had been given a second chance of life.

It was a long twisted tale, in truth. One he wasn’t keen on dwelling over.

Yet, whenever he caught a glimpse of himself in the bathroom mirror, his mind forced him into a litany of cold, dark memories.

Coming back from the dead was tremulous on a whole. Seeing the raised ‘Y’ autopsy incision that started near the tops of his shoulders and ran all the way down to his navel was like a hard slap of reality to his face each time.

He had died.

He had died and he didn’t stay dead.

He was an unnatural, unearthly entity.

Sadness and something bitter like regret sullied his soul. The truth was a heavy burden to carry and his scars were the burning points at which the weight rested, concrete on his chest.

All of this— the pain and misery, self-pity and confusion— melted away when you looked at him. Stone turned to butter, and his chest was filled with warmth at your influence. As a whole person, he knew what he looked like, even when his scars were hidden. He was a tall guy with a white streak in his hair and eyes that looked like permanent contacts; he was used to being looked at.

With you though, when your eyes ran over him from tip to toe— in that quiet, shy way you had— he finally felt seen. You watched him with such fascination, such fiery intensity that he was sure you could see the shattered fragments of his soul. He was useless when you were looking at him and often, he would let himself fall into your gaze. Because, while it was harder to feel like he deserved the love in your eyes— it was just as impossible to deny you whatever you wanted.

And so, on a rainy night between soft giggling and wine and his inability to keep his hands off your skin, he finds himself torn between fear and desire. Hate and love. Life and what lay beyond death.

You’re in his lap, thighs secure around his hips and mouth just within kissing distance. He can’t get enough of you, a greedy lavacious voice begs for him to pull you closer. To steal you away into the night and show you all the unseen parts of the world until he found just one other existent thing in the universe that was just as beautiful as you.

But as you whisper his name, slow and warm like melted butter, he feels a dangerous tug of hesitation in his gut. You’re so willing to give, tender and deliberate in all your touches— never once moving your hands unless your instructed to. It’s almost like you know what he fears the most, like you know how much he needs the comfort of explicit, repeated consent.

He drags you down by the hand cradling your neck, bites at your mouth until your sighing happily against him. For a moment it’s quiet. Easy.

And then you shiver almost violently as he slips a hand up your shirt, palm flat against your lower back. Something heady and primal crawls into his chest and he loses himself then. The desire to press bare skin to bare skin claws at him wildly and he finds his own hands at the hem of his hoodie.

You freeze, heartbeat skipping up. Concern grows in your eyes, “Are you sure, Jay?”

He catches himself, swallowing thickly as tension settles coldly into the room. He isn’t sure. Guilt makes him recoil into his own skin, sick and nauseous.  Panic builds behind it, chases the air from his lungs.

How could you still see him as a regular guy if he showed you all the parts of himself that proved he was only pretending to be one?

“Jay,” you lean your weight off of him. “Take a deep breath. You’re okay.”

His queasiness settles. You’re always so good to him.

“We don’t have to do anything you don’t want to do.” You brush a hand through his hair.  "Do you wanna watch something on Netflix? We could watch The Office?“

Too good, maybe.

"Do you remember …do you remember when I told you about how I….” He fumbles with words, “how I was …and then I wasn’t-”

“Dead. How you were dead?” You’re able to soften the blow of the words somehow.

He nods once, more of a quick jerk of his head than anything. “I have scars.”

“I know that,” you say, tracing your finger over a jagged one on his forearm.

“No. I mean I have autopsy scars.”

“Oh.”

The light from the TV pales the room, casts a deep shadow for him to hide in. Tears prickle his eyes before he can quell his emotions.

“We don’t have to anything you don’t want to do.” You parrot, “But I promise you those scars won’t scare me away. So….when you’re ready, I’m here.”

There in your eyes was the same quiet reassurance he couldn’t get enough of. Once more, he was seen. Heard. Understood.

OMG JASON'S AUTOPSY SCARS

Cough*

Jason’s design……

Next time I’m going to go ham with platforms on him like 👀

Not really a design I app for him. I feel like he’s not gonna go all out he’s just vibing idk. He set the makeup being the most prominent thing. His theme is dead boi

He does actually have the scars but I figure paint them all glowey and no one questions it?

He has fun being the zombie on stage and watching his family squirm when they see him in all the makeup lol

Blue lips cold skin wrecked fingernails

Bruce would have an attack 🤣

I don’t really know what to do with Jason’s designs and I’m open to any ideas fr

Official secret band AU!!!

Steph is drummer. Tim singer. Jason guitarist
