when she'd asked to spend time with him tonight, she'd wrongfully assumed that meant he'd have no issues making time for her while also hanging out with his friends. but mox had spent the last hour ignoring her, his gaze focused on the television screen, his drinks, his buddies, meanwhile cora had been left at a table a few feet away, alone, and forgotten about until seth had settled down next to her and started making conversation.
it'd been nice to be remembered; to not be subjected to forgotten tendencies, left to rot on the table and wait for him to remember that he'd agreed to her being there. what'd started as simple conversation with seth had slowly transitioned into casual flirting, and though cora had known better, wasn't it also just and fair for mox to have sit through it a little – if he even noticed it at all? it took longer than she'd thought for him to settle down in the seat across from them, even longer for him to actually voice his displeasure, sending seth off to get another round before his accusations were started and directed to her alone.
red lipstick stained lips purse together as she tilts her head at him, fingers curling around her glass, pulling it closer to her as dark eyes roll. “ if i were trying to fuck seth, i wouldn't have waited for you to notice that he was flirting with me. ” her glass is brought to her lips, a sip of the whisky before she settles it back onto the table and shakes her head. “ just keeping myself entertained since i clearly wasn't good enough for your attention tonight. ” the words tumble cold and cruel from her lips, a matching tone for the one he'd used for her.
“ if you didn't want me here, you should've said no. ”
you could've knocked me out with a feather , i know you've heard this all before but we're just hell's neighbors ( . . . )

Send "What if they kissed?"
and I'll write a scene where our muses kiss, even if they aren't shipped together. it is it's own thing and doesn't have to lead to an official ship. a "what if scenario"
Nicola Coughlan as Penelope Featherington
Bridgerton S3.E6 ∙ Romancing Mister Bridgerton
there is no one who knows her better than him, no one who understands the delicately chaotic workings of a mind that could just so easily break as it could blossom. for all the effort of saying he wasn't taking her seriously, cora knows there's no one better to press her – no one better to test the strength of a surgically repaired knee. even if he's more distraction now than teacher. more hazy fog clouded into her mind when she needed it clear to think, more inhaled scent of him – smoke and his cologne, a little bit of sweat. it takes effort to breathe against his teeth on her neck, to not allow dark eyes to fall shut as she leans back into the open air of their garage. “ you're not fighting fair. ” she mumbles, half - whine for the mark she knows she'll bear upon tanned skin, before hungry brown eyes scan over his body in search of her exit strategy.
she's not a flyer, prefers her feet on the ground – a few reckless stunts from tops of cages that'd left her shoulders less than perfect that insist she doesn't continue to make the same mistakes over and over again. but cora's nothing if not inventive, if not willing to try anything once if it suits her; right now anything to put him flat on his back suited well enough. her fingers tangle into his beard, gentle at first before wrenching tight to shove him back, a delicate nudge of her foot to his chest – fingers curled around the ropes as she maneuvers up to stand upon the turnbuckle, letting go one by one until she's balancing hands free and staring down at him with the same sort of quiet determination one might see in a toddler before they reigned down chaos.
she doesn't know what exactly she's going for, doesn't really know what to do with her hands or . . . any other part of her – half crossbody, half flying nothing, meant to collide into him and little else. a reckless leap of faith without a secondary thought or hesitation – shit eating grin curled onto her mouth.
he had pushed her into the turnbuckle with his palms on her hips first. the motion of his hips followed right after. experimentally first, then with purpose. moxley knows about training for a comeback⸺ knows about the feeling of carrying a chip on the shoulder that is so heavy, one might lose balance and stumble off the path of determination and instead end up with doggedness. fuck, he’s wandered down the wrong road once or twice or a hundred times before. it is the tenacity of waiting and waiting and waiting and waiting for body to comply with mind again and shit ; fuck him if he’d let cora crash and burn the way he had. fuck him if, between fight and bite, he didn’t make sure to remind her why they even step in the ring. together.
“ i’m taking you so fuckin’ seriously. “ mumbles between kisses and breaks the touch of tongue to tongue just for a second⸺ just long enough to dig fingertips into the skin of her thighs and lift her up onto the top turnbuckle. she’s taller than him now, his lips right against her throat to suck on sensitive flesh and rub his beard against the quickly irritated skin. “ c’m on⸺ ‘m sure ya know a wait outta here. “ and he knows a way further in, sinks teeth into muscle and skin and groans in excitement over the salty taste of her body.

i did some writing today. managed an icon border i don’t hate finally. also touched up my hair so i’m not all faded anymore — perhaps i am choosing to struggle less now???
i made it to the weekend — which means replies and things are coming soon™️
@tymptir said : I am not what you wanted, but I swear to you I shall fulfill my duties as your husband as well as I can — and leave you alone as much as you wish, should that be your preference. , from tyrion to sansa .
she knows that she should not be cruel. for whatever situation she had found herself in now, it was not his fault – sansa had come to learn which lannister pulled the strings, which cruelties to blame upon joffrey, and which ones could be attributed to cersei, but this one she knew belonged to a far more diligent hand. lord tywin had not been present within the red keep for more than a few days before her dreams of escaping to highgarden with lord willas had been dashed, and the cold face of reality made to look back upon her once more from her vanity mirror.
but that does little to quell the annoyance she feels now, the insistent rage of a girl so tired of being used in whichever political arrangement she was most useful for. another fact that is not his fault, but lord tyrion is the only one offering her this quiet place of solitude – the only one offering her the ability to voice her displeasure without fear of retribution. even still, sansa eyes him much like a wolf uncertain if the hunter before her is hiding a knife behind his back.
“ none of this is to my preference, but that has never mattered much to anyone here. ” she says plainly, her emotions steeled behind practised mannerisms. if she could stand to look joffrey in the face after he'd harmed her, after he'd made her look upon her father's head upon a pike, sansa could manage this. could manage anything. “ your family enjoys killing wolves, i hope you will be kind enough to allow me the comfort of not knowing when you decide to take my head. ”
unwilling to acknowledge his willingness to acquiesce to her, as if his willingness made it better that she'd been a prisoner here ever since the day her father was killed. as if she'd ever been given a choice on whether she wanted to stay.
