Y/N convinces Alcina to sing a song at an open mic night

Alcina: *Sitting at a table while she waits for her time slot, annoyed that she let Y/N convince her to do this*

Y/N: *Playing pool and drinking beer, goofing off with Sal and Karl, steadily getting drunk*

10 minutes later

Some rando: *Finishes playing their song*

Mother Miranda: *Hosting, shoos them off the stage* Alright, well, that was truly awful, I’m not going to lie… personally, I like a little bit of Mozart or Bach. It stimulates the brain you know!

The audience: *Booing Miranda for being such a jerk*

Mother Miranda: *Rolls her eyes, looks at the lineup, sighs with relief* Finally! Someone with a little talent in this god-forsaken hellhole. Please welcome to the stage, the legendary, Miss D!

The audience: *Cheers and claps*

Mother Miranda: *Walks over to the bar* I need a drink. These people suck. Guess they’ll be the next batch of experiments. *Snags a bottle of tequila and drinks straight from it*

Bartender: *Horrified by what they just heard and saw*

Alcina: *Gets onstage*

Y/N: *Whistling and yelling loudly, really drunk at this point* Yeah! Thass mah wiFfeE! We have sEeXxx AllLlL the timeE! You’re all jeaLOus!

Alcina: *Growls and yells at Y/N* Stop it, Y/N! Our intimacy is not to be discussed here! *Gets ready to introduce the song*

Y/N: *Calls out from the audience* FreEe BiRd! Do Freee birrd!

Alcina: *Groans, yells at Karl* Keep Y/N quiet so I can sing this damn song and go home!

Karl: *Clamps a hand over Y/N’s mouth*

Alcina: *Clears her throat, composes herself* Now, this song is-

Y/N: *Bites Karl’s hand and he lets go*

Karl: Fuck! You stupid little dumbass! *Pulls his hand away from Y/N*

Y/N: *Stands on a bar stool, waving their arms so Alcina will notice them* Hey! HhHeEY! Show us your tits!

The audience: *Cheers and whistles*

Alcina: *Blushes hard, gasps* Y/N! You knock off this vulgar behavior this instant!

Y/N: I'mMM GonNaa LIvEE ForeVverr! *Trips and falls on top of Sal* Whoa! Thanks for breaking my fall!

Sal: *Face smushed into the floor, offers a muffled reply* Don’t mention it…

Y/N: *Thinks and calls out to Alcina* Can you do Sweet Caroline?! You know, the one that goes- *Sings horribly out of tune* SwEeT CaAArOLinne!

Y/N and the audience: BUM BUM BUMMM! *Everyone continues singing the song because they’re all drunk and rowdy*

Alcina: *Looks for Miranda* Mother Miranda, I must-

Mother Miranda: *Fucking crowd surfing while belting out the song as loud as she can with everybody else*

Alcina: *Stunned*

Mother Miranda: *Takes a couple more swigs of tequila, super drunk, winks and flashes a nipple at the crowd* If you want to see the rest, that’s gonna cost you!

The audience and Y/N: *Going fucking crazy and cheering*

Y/N: *Shoving a wad of cash at Miranda* Shut up and take my money!

The way she is going to regret

I’m having serious writer’s block for the AlcinaxTransReader stuff (I have one request I’m filling from asks, but I’m seriously blanking on the rest) so to try to get me back into writing, send me a prompt and which characters and I’ll do a lil one shot for it.

please?

I love how the resident evil writers just decided that Ethan Winters was such a good character but he didn’t have enough trauma and so they wrote RE8 to see how much trauma they could put one character through

Cinnamon in my teeth.

Pairing- Karl Heisenberg x reader, reader ‘leaves’ Karl for Alcina Dimitrescu

Reader has They/Them/She/Her pronouns

Type- conflict, angst, hurt

Warning- mentions of violence, angry outbursts

Summary- As Heisenberg storms to Castle Dimitrescu, he has many things racing through his head. How he had come to love you, how you had changed him, how you had betrayed him.

part 1 - https://galacticjoelle.tumblr.com/post/676589640775516160/give-me-all-of-you

-

It has been 19 hours since you’ve been gone. 19 hours since Heisenberg began to await your arrival. Your trips into the village don’t usually last very long. 10 hours alone push it. The people of the village remember the day the lord of metal rampaged the streets in search for his love. How unfortunate that day was for the kind person that lended you shelter in the blizzard. Their roof had to be patched before more snow visited from above. Ever since, Heisenberg has had your word. A promise that you’d return to his steel fortress. That you’d return to safety. That you’d return to his arms. It has been 19 hours since you’ve walked through the factory gates.

Time ticks so slow as two sticks of cinnamon wrapped in twine sits on his desk. Despite the rusted scraps and crusted oil, the bundle looks alone. A reminder of you. Heisenberg can only imagine how you’ve been walking alone in the village. It sickens him to think of how much you trusted the freaks in that town. You were always so kind and his biggest fear was your kindness becoming a weakness. Or the possibility of you got stuck in the melting snow. He picks up the cinnamon, gently holding it between his finger and thumb. You had promised you’d return, like the times before. And in turn, he had promised you. Promised to not make any move to tear the town to bits before the lycans raised him any alarm.

The cinnamon’s residue has covered his gloves and filled his senses. All he can think about is you. You had always had this sweetness to you. Glazed kisses and warm touches. But there was also this hint of spice. That’s what he liked about you. In one memory, the feeling of your palms grazing his back after a long day would linger in his thoughts and in another, the first time he saw you, fighting off the undead in his workshop. That’s why every time you hid cinnamon throughout the factory, he didn’t mind it. But now the howls of lycans make him wonder… could cinnamon go sour?


Magma filled the lords blood as none of the beasts before him could clearly inform him. They all frantically snarled and whined in the front yard of the lords residence. All the lord knows is that something has happened to you as your shawl is dragged to the front of the crowd. It’s covered in blood and melted snow. The unfamiliar feeling of twisting erupts in his stomach as the metal around him shakes in anger. “Where is she.” Heisenberg thought it was about time he owed his neighbors a little visit.

Sharp shrapnel rained from the sky as the mutated man walked the stone paths. The lycans raced before him and howled in pain as they recalled the last time they saw you. Villagers hid from view, the windows shutting and doors locking in a futile attempt at protecting themselves from the lord’s wrath. Heisenberg cries out your name, “buttercup, where are you? You’ve given the lycans quite a scare! It’d be a shame if I’d have to let them tear through the precious freaks in this place.” His empty threats fell on fearful ears, but not the ears he intended for. A part of him expected you to cry out in protest as you emerge from a corner or a door. But your voice was no where. In a moment of frustration, some scrap was thrown at the nearby statue, hitting some Lycan in the process.

“Oh hoh, well it isn’t often the lord leaves his bastille. But do be careful with your toys, my caravan can only handle so much abuse.” The man of smaller stature turns his head, seeing the Duke nimbly plucking metal from the wood beside him.

“Where is she.”

“My my! Aren’t you demanding. Last I saw of your ‘buttercup,’ she was carrying off her order and made her way to your humble abode. Has something happened to the mistress?”

“If you’re gonna be so useless, it’s none of your fucking business.” A scowl was given from above his glasses, not phasing the merchant in the slightest.

“Well, if you truly see me as such, I’d advise talking to your mother, the towns people do say she sees everything.” A slight grin fits the dukes cheeks as he closes the caravan doors. Some lycans prowl and hiss at the now vanished Duke as the sound of flying crows erupts.

Scraps of metal hesitantly began to falter. Even if he’s pissed off, he can’t let his “mother” know of his distain. Lycans scatter into the neighboring village roads as crows nip at their skin and eyes. Can’t a mother talk to her son with some privacy?

Standing before the large stone doors of the castle, Mother Miranda is not scowling, nor smiling. Her eyes are full of something Heisenberg can’t see. Not that he cares.

“Heisenberg. Is there a reason you’ve come to terrorize our people? I thought I had taught you better.” A scolding tone softly bled through as a veil of concern provided the man more reason to scowl.

Heisenberg didn’t know what to say in the moment. How was he to tell her he had found someone willing enough to love him. Love him and all his ugliness. Someone who didn’t hide behind locked doors when his cadou forced him to lash out. Someone who noticed how tired and scarred his hands were. Picked them up and “kissed them better.” He couldn’t risk his abuser to take her away. To use her as leverage, keeping him like a dog on a leash.

Miranda watched as her “son” opened his mouth and choked on his words, debating with himself. His expression was covered by the brim of his hat. Miranda grew restless.

“I’m assuming this has something to do with the woman who walked out of your gates.”

Miranda took note of how the scrap of metal on the floor seemingly tensed, hovering over the gravel, reflecting the flexing of Heisenberg’s gloves. The gig was up.

“What about them.” His voice faltered, your name almost slipping out from behind his clenched teeth.

“I watched how the lycans watched over them. How they watched her walk up the hill and through the snow from your factory. How she bought bags of metal from the Duke. How the lycans tried to warn her of the open castle gates. They tried to warn them of the moroacia clawing at her skin.” With every passing moment, the metal rose and spun in place. So she pushed on with her account.

“Lucky for her, your sister was there to save her from such a painful demise. Perhaps her fate was more comfortable after all.”

Metal shrapnel pierced the walls of the castle, passing Miranda’s wings and form. Bingo.

“That bitch! I’m gonna rip apart that fucking castle and her infestations she calls ‘daughters.’” Lycans howled and snarled from rooftops as they and Miranda watched Heisenberg’s rage manifest in rising metal. The cadou pumped adrenaline into his veins and Miranda watched as his form grew. As much as she’d like a good show, she stopped him.

“ENOUGH.” Before his form could mutate any longer, Miranda towered over him. She couldn’t risk her reckless son to destroy her hard work. Heisenberg knew he had no power over Miranda. He was minuscule compared.

She walked towards the lord before her as metal still floated at the ready. A foot before Heisenberg, she offers a proposal, “Karl, I doubt Alcina knew of your connection with the commoner. Perhaps I could give her a little visit. It’s very possible she has yet to be harvested, extra care is given to the… special ones.” Heisenberg didn’t know what caused his stomach to churn. He couldn’t tell if it was how she sickeningly sweet said his name, how she wanted to diplomatically resolve the problem or even think of his bitch of a sister seeing you as a new doll of sorts. As he glared daggers into the dirt under his boots, Miranda pushed on. “Son?”

“Fine.” Heisenberg couldn’t let the woman before him see just how much he cared about you. So he turned around and stormed away, lycans snarling and howling in pain as some got caught in more metal crossfire. Villagers cowered in their homes, pieces of scraps piercing their delicate roofs. Miranda knew this wasn’t the end, she could only hope he lashed his anger out on the lycans and undead within his fortress.

With that, she dissipated into crows, following the faint scent of cinnamon into the castle. How rude of her daughter to have visitors without inviting her own mother.
