《Father Laff AU (Socksfor1) Volume 1》Fateful Encounter Part 4:

Pulled into the kitchen, Joocie stood in front of the sink as Tbh stood a ways away as if careful to keep his distance.
“...Well? I-I’m w-waiting Honest…”
Tbh cleared his throat and rubbed his neck “R-Right...u-uh...I...um…” He huffed “L-Look just tell me what to say and I’ll say it!” Letting out a soft squeak, Joocie held his arms and glared at him “What about “I’m Sorry I was so Fucking inconsiderate about your feelings, Joocie”! That kind of sounds like something you SHOULD say!”
Tbh stumbled back with his hands raised in defense “Why are you yelling!? Why are you this upset-!?”
Joocie teared up and turned away as Tbh jumped, quickly turning the distance “W-Wait No No No! I-I take it back!! I take it back, I’m sorry! I’m sorry!” Tbh was trembling as his eyes searched Joocie, watching the other’s small movements as he sniffled and sobbed quietly. He braced himself for anything that would happen, and gently took Joocie’s hand in both of his “J-Joocie please...l-look at me…”
The latter didn’t respond as he kept looking down. Taking another risky chance, Tbh took one of his hands and cupped the side of Joocie’s head, gently pulling him to face him.
Joocie was silently sobbing as tears streamed down his face. Seeing this broke Tbh’s heart as he shook “J-Joocie…” He bit back some of his own sobs “Y-you know I-I hate it when you c-cry…”
Sniffling softly, Joocie glanced away “I-I’m sorry…”
Tbh shook his head and gripped onto his hand tightly “N-No you shouldn’t be sorry! I-It is my fault that I-I made you cry-! I-It’s just-” He groaned softly and looked away “I-Its just so...HARD being a boyfriend.” He took one of his hands away and rubbed his eyes “Y-You know that I joke around a-and tease the others a-and everything I have done makes you smile a-and that makes me happy…” He rubbed his neck “A-And I know I-I have a pretty shitty time knowing w-when I need to shut my mouth b-before I say something I’ll regret…” He sniffled softly “Y-You should have told me when I did stupid shit like that!”
Joocie hiccupped and glared at him sadly “I-I have! M-Multiple times! Y-You just don’t-”
Tbh held both of his hands and looked him in the eye “I get it Joocie I get it-! I just...don’t listen…” He squeezed his hands softly “B-But I don’t want to lose you, s-so-! E-Even if you have to beat sense into me I will change!”
Frowning, Joocie pulled his hands away and took a few steps back “I-I’ve heard that the p-past four times s-something like this happened...H-How are you going to m-make sure this will b-be the last time…?” Tbh glanced to the side, in thought as he closed his eyes. He looked back at him “I-I guess...you have to do something v-very difficult…”
Joocie rubbed his eyes “W-What is that…?” Tbh smiled softly and held his hand out.
“Trust me..”
Joocie looked at his hand and back up at Tbh, messing with his own hands. He sniffled and rubbed his arm “...I-If I take your hand...Y-you’re not going to distract me with k-kisses and s-shit, r-right..?” He hiccupped softly “I-I don’t feel..-”
“N-No of course not! Of course, I-I won’t push anything, I won’t make you uncomfortable.” He let out a soft laugh “Of course you know I do give kisses and cuddles on request.”

Joocie let out a silent laugh as he sniffled quietly “I-I know…” He slowly came closer and allowed Tbh to envelop him in a hug. The crab man held Joocie gently in his arms as he couldn’t help but rake his fingers through Joocies long, fluffy yellow hair. Twirling the strands in his fingers, Tbh sniffled quietly and softly laughed as he felt the British man shift in his arms.
“H-hey...w-what are you doing…?”
Tbh chuckled softly and smoothed out his hair gently “s-sorry, your hair is so fluffy I just couldn’t help it.” He smiled softly “e-everything about you is just so cute and beautiful and just...perfect in every way..”
Joocie blushed softly “H-Honest...S-Stop it..” he said sheepishly as he glanced down “i-its embarrassing…”
Smiling softly, Tbh brushed a few strands out of Joocie’s face as he tilted his chin up to look at him. He spoke softly, barely above a whisper "but Joocie..~ It is only us here in the kitchen. Can't I speak of every single detail about you that makes you the perfect boyfriend to me?"
"R-really..? L-like what..?"
Tbh tapped his chin before running his hand through Joocie's hair gently. "Well. You are so kind, and generous, and cute, and funny." He chuckled softly and tapped Joocie's nose "and you have a cute nose."
Joocie blushed "H-Honest.."
Tbh giggled quietly and poked his cheeks "and soft, squishy pudgy cheeks that I just want to pinch all day long." He pinches the air around Joocie's cheeks while giggling "Pinch Pinch Pinch!"
Joocie stifled a giggle and squirmed a bit "T-Tbh-!"
"I wanna pinch your chubby wubby cheeks, babe!" Tbh squealed quietly and pokes Joocie's armpits "Or maybe I will tickle you instead!" The smaller Juiceman in his arms jumped and squirmed, starting to laugh quietly "H-Hey!-" The Crab man smiled and began to poke Joocie in his armpits and sides "C'mon~ Lemme hear you laugh! I wanna hear my Joocie giggle!"
Couldn't have held it in any longer, Joocie started to laugh and squirm "I-Its not fair! H-H-Honest!!" He kept laughing as he lost his balance.
Tbh quickly caught him, laughing warmly "Whoa! Fallen head over heels for me again J?" Joocie stifled silent giggles, covering his smile with his eyes closed. He slowly calmed down as he looked up at Tbh, staring into those brown orbs he had fallen smitten for.
Tbh pressed his forehead against the man below him and stared back into Joocie's pale blue eyes warmly. "Do you feel better now, Joocie?"
Pondering on the thought, Joocie nodded slowly before gently moving his hand up to grip Tbh's shoulder ever so gently. "...yeah...I believe so.." Tbh smiled brightly and leaned his head against his "I'm glad.."
The two stayed there in the kitchen, silent and unmoving as they both let the soft atmosphere around them slowly seep in.
Oompa suddenly came from the entrance way "Alright you two if you are not gonna kiss and make out why don't you come join me back in the living room?"
The two let out a frightened yelp as Joocie quickly pulled himself away from Tbh "OOMPA!"
Tbh glared at him "H-How long were you-!?"
Oompa waved his hands "Oh not too long, only long enough to know Joocie's weak points the next time we play Among Us" he laughed and put his hands behind him "Oh but don't worry! I didn't hear anything too personal come from you two."

Joocie glared at him "S-Swear on it..?"
Oompa nods "Of course! Hell, I'm just glad you two aren't fighting right now. It's kinda cute seeing you two act all lovey dovey" he laughed softly as the other two blushed deeply and looked away from each other.
He shrugged "Well, you two should head back to the living room. Everyone will be in brighter moods seeing you two have made up" he smiled and walked into the living room.
Tbh looked at Joocie before smiling warmly and offering his hand "Mnn, shall we my dear?"
Joocie rolled his eyes and laughed weakly "y-you're so corny sometimes.."
Tbh smirked "Oh I'm a corn am I? Well this corn is about to pop cause you are HOT DAMN!"
Joocie blushed deeply and punched Tbh in the arm "HONEST NOT HERE" Tbh laughed and gently grabbed his hand, leading him back into the living room. The scene in the living room wasn't one that they had expected.
The group in the living room was discussing intently and watching Blaza as he scribbled on his notepad, digging through his pocket for the fabled golden coin.
"...uhh, what's going on..?" Joocie tilted his head, confused.
Blaza looked up and smiled "Ayyy! Joocie and Tbh! You came just in time!" He held up the notepad "We were figuring out what to name the baby!"
"Hey, why didn't you wait till we came back!? I have so many good names!" Tbh protested as Oof laughed "Well sucks to be you!" Socks let out a quiet laugh "None of your names were picked, Oof." The twister man froze up and pulled his hood over his head "D-Don't stomp on my pride-!"
Tbh laughed quietly as Joocie moved to the couch "Which names have you picked?"
Laff was holding the baby in his arms as he glanced up "Down to two choices mate; it's either Dinos suggestion of 'Terrance' or Sock's suggestion of 'Nadwe'.."
Socks scratched his head "Yeah, I'm not sure how Nadwe managed to get to the final two, it's not a very smart name..'
Blaza pulled out his hand from his pocket "Well there is ONE way to settle this!" He held up his hand to reveal the gold coin "I have ONE, Not two-Not Five! But ONE GOLDEN COIN! And it will decide Laff's new son's fate!"
Oompa came over and sat down "You're really gonna choose a name based on a coin flip?"
Tbvg rubbed his arm "Woolfster bit me while we tried discussing a name so this might be a better route.."
Woolfster huffed softly "You said naming him William would make him a psycho!" Tbvg looked at him "Hey he was the purple guy from those fucking scary survival games and he dressed up in a bunny suit!" Woolfster glared at him "THAT WAS VINCENT YOU BASTARD! Plus it was an ANIMATRONIC suit!"
Tbvg rolled his eyes "Either way it could have hard core Fnaf fans might call the baby a psychotic murderer.."
"BUT HIM HAVING THAT NAME-"
"We are getting off track guys!" Blaza announced loudly as Woolfster calmed down. He cleared his throat and held up the coin "Alright! Heads is Terrance and Tails is Nadwe!"
Socks let out a soft sigh "Please be heads"
Oof laughed "No it should be tails just to spite you!"
Socks looked at him "Hey im trying to spare the child from having a stupid named!"
"The universe is gonna cause that coin to land straight up to spite all of you." Blaza scoffed and looked at Tbvg "Oh please! The coin never lies! It wouldn't think this as too big of a decision that it decides to not choose a side!" He laughed "Be more realistic! Okay here we go! HWAH!"
Blaza tossed the coin up as everyone watched it go up into the air, not taking any eyes off for a second while the coin fell back down. It bounced on the coffee table and…
Landed right on its side.
"WHAT!?!?!" Blaza was frozen in shock as Socks, Oof, Dino and Tbvg stared at the coin dumbfounded. Meme almost instantly started laughing, covering his mouth as Laff looked amazed.
Oompa joined in on the laughter "Even the coin won't fucking make up its mind!"
Blaza pulled his hood off "ARE YOU KIDDING ME!? A ONE IN A MILLION CHANCE OF THAT HAPPENING AND IT HAPPENS NOW!?!"
Socks scrambled out of his seat "Well just hit the table so it lands face up!" Oof quickly got up and grabbed Sock's arm "HEY NO THAT DOESN'T FUCKING COUNT!" Socks tried to pry his arm away "YES IT DOES!" "NO IT NEEDS TO BE TOSSED AGAIN!"
Woolfster looked away from the TV "Wait what happened I was watching the movie.."
Tbh covered his mouth as he tried not to laugh, trembling as Joocie looked at him and then at Laff. He walked over and sat down, looking at him and the baby.
"Mate now what do we do? Even the coin isn't of any use.." Laff muttered as Joocie scratched his head thinking.
"...Well why not go with Nadwe?"
Laff jumped and looked at him "Huh? Lad what do you-"
Joocie shrugged "I dunno, it just...fits." He smiled softly "I think Nadwe is a darling name.." He gestured to the baby "I just look at him and imagine calling him Nadwe.."
Socks looked over "Joocie you cant be serious it's a dumb name!"
Joocie shrugged "Maybe to you, but it is Laff's choice. Also would you really think this child might be stupid because of that name?"
Socks rubbed his arm "W-well no of course not!...but others might and bully him for it.." Oof cracked his knuckles "If they do I'm gonna shove a foot up Someone's Ass!"
Joocie chuckled quietly "See? None of us would let him be bullied.."
Laff was looking at the baby as he smoothed out the baby's hair, pondering it over. 'Nadwe' was a really good name choice, but how would it..? He looked up "To not startle anyone, I'd like to try something."
Meme tilted his head "Which is..?"
Laff cleared his throat softly before speaking, with his voice wavering from neutral to happy to disappointed to furious in the span of 7 seconds. "Nadwe. Nadwe! Oh, Nadwe.. NADWE!!"
Blaza reeled back from the yelling "JESUS CHRIST LAFF THAT'S RIGHT IN MY EAR!"
Sitting there for a minute, Laff smiled softly before looking down "Yeah, that is perfect.." Dino didn't seem to get it "Uh, what is?"
"The name; Nadwe."

Obstinate Han
A power progression fantasy with a main character who trains constantly but who lacks purpose, direction, and motivation. The world he lives in, however, is not a peaceful one. As obstinate as Han can be, with all of humanity edging slowly towards annihilation, will he truly be able to avoid becoming entangled in the affairs of the deities fighting over his new universe? This story is a slow burn rather than a fast paced action/adventure, and is centered around the perspective of a main character who struggles with depression, apathy, anhedonia, and asociality. This world was doomed well before he arrived, and he knows it. Rather than following the traditional hero model, he just wants to train for its own sake, and to scrape out occasional moments of happiness in a ruined and dying world.

Greys II - Ghosts
There he stood, dark eyes, dark hair, beautiful in the most devastating of ways. It scared me how little he had changed, his hair was longer and black, his frame thinner, like he hadn't eaten since I last saw him. His eyes were different, lacking something they had always held before, lacking anything really, and yet he was the same. He looked weak, but I knew he wasn't. "Hi, angel."His voice was just as dead as his eyes. It sent a shiver up my spine. That was the reason I felt sick, that was the reason he seemed different. He was dead, and as much as I wanted to hate him, I was sad he was empty, sad he wasn't the same man anymore."Hello, Gabriel."My voice came out softer than I would have liked, the words burning my tongue. But it didn't matter, I got the desired effect even if the volume wasn't there. He flinched, his eyes widening, his eyebrows twitching up and together, his jaw setting for just a moment. But then it was gone and he looked away, death settling back in his eyes, in the lines of his face.» ✦ «#2 in Angel Romance#3 in Demonology#11 in Thriller#Mature, 18+ for all the reasons. Not a YA novel (again).**Due to disturbing themes, violence, depression, language and literally everything else, this is not for the kids. Ghosts is darker than Intentions. But you need to live in the dark to appreciate the light...or at least, the lighter grays 🖤🖤

Dear Spellbook (Rewrite)
Live. Study. Repeat. Tal never saw himself as an adventurer, but the call to adventure never much cared for his opinion. Despite his best efforts, his search for answers on the murder of his parents ever draws him into danger. Accompanied by a group of seasoned warriors, thus far Tal has gotten by on his own meager magical talents, but when one day he wakes up to find himself back in his bed of the night before, he is faced with a challenge he must conquer alone. What to expect: This story was born of an attempt to create in world lore reasons for many of the mechanics and tropes of D&D, but you do not need to know of them to enjoy the story. It's a single POV time loop story with slow paced progression fantasy elements. The story is not one of fast-paced power ups and non-stop action, but as it progresses, the action picks up. There is a lot of magic system exploration on a system built to unify the diverse magic of D&D into one cohesive magic system. The setting is an original world with familiar races and monsters but with new unique origins and motivations. Book 1 is complete. Book 2 is complete and coming out M-W-F. The complete book 2 is available on Patreon
