“She never made it off the table."
You never thought seven little words could hurt so badly. Your surroundings turned to white noise, as you felt your soul begin to tear apart, the sounds of your teammates cries drowning out, fading to nothing. All you could hear was the sound of your breathing, shallow and shaky. Before you knew it, your body dropped towards the floor, crumbling against the wall. You felt arms grab you tightly, holding you up, unable to support yourself. All you could hear was the sound of your breathing.
You looked up to see Hotch and Rossi, helping you into a chair, their mouths were moving, but you couldn't focus on what they were saying. Confusion swept across your face, as you felt water hit your face.
"W-Where is... Where is th-this water, c-coming from," You mumbled, looking up. The white noise began to fade, as you felt JJ crouch beside you, holding your hand.
"Honey, you-you're crying," She sniffed, wiping your tears, holding back her own.
"I- I don't-" You began, before Penelope sat by you, pulling you into the tightest hug imaginable. That's when it hit you - she was gone. Emily Prentiss, your best friend, your confidant, your other half - was dead. You began to sob into Penelope's shoulder, your heart shattering into a million pieces, feeling Garcia whimper softly along with you. The cruelest part, however, was the soul crushing realisation that you never told her how you really felt about her - how much you truly cared for and appreciated her. You had so many chances to tell her you loved her, but let fear get the better of you every time. Now, it was too late - you'd missed your chance, forever.
"I- I have to- I can't," You stuttered, getting out of your seat, patting Penelope's shoulder.
"Hey, hey," Hotch said, keeping you steady. You looked into his eyes, tears brimming yet again.
"I can't be here, Hotch," You whimpered, a tear staining your cheek. He looked at Rossi, and they both nodded.
"Alright, c'mon, let me take you home," Hotch sighed, rubbing your arm gently. He held you tightly, steering you towards the exit, when Reid stopped you.
"Y/N?" He croaked. You turned around, your bloodshot eyes meeting his. He made his way over to you, and wrapped his arms around you tightly. You welled up at the physical contact, knowing how he hated and usually avoided hugs. "It's gonna be okay," He whispered, squeezing you gently. You pulled away, and simply looked at him, before you grabbed onto Hotch and made your way to his SUV.
The whole ride back to your apartment was spent in silence, tears silently spilling down your face. You turned to gaze out the window, wondering if things would've been different had you been honest with her. Would she have felt the same? Now, you'd never know. You continued to ignore Hotch's sympathetic glances. You made your way up to your apartment, Hotch following you inside. You took a deep breath, seeing the pictures of you and your team on your hallway shelves, knowing that things would never be the same. Hotch picked up on this and rested his hand on your shoulder.
"Do you want me to stay? I don't know how comfortable I feel leaving you alone, in this frame of mind." He said, in a concerned tone. You broke from your trance, turning your back to the pictures, now facing Hotch.
"I- Uh, no- no, I'll be okay. I really just need to be alone, I think," You whispered, avoiding his eyes because you knew if you looked at him, you'd crumble.
"Okay, but promise me you'll call me, or Rossi, if you need anything at all, regardless of the time," He told you, still looking at you like you were some lost puppy.
"I uh, I will Hotch, thank you," You replied, seeing him out. The second you closed the door, you fell against it, letting out a loud wail. You felt crushed by your raw grief and overwhelming regret, your heart tearing to shreds.
You eventually found the strength to pick yourself off the floor, and made your way to your bedroom. You removed your clothing, and fumbled in your drawer for some pyjamas, when you found an old t-shirt. Immediately, your heart sank, realising that it wasn't one of yours - it was one of Emily's, that she'd accidentally left after your last girls night. You covered your mouth shakily, the realisation that she was gone sinking in further. You tearfully slipped on a nightshirt, picked up her t-shirt, and crawled under your covers. You briefly glanced at your nightstand, eyes misting at the picture of you and Emily at your birthday party earlier in the year. You brought the t-shirt up to your face, inhaling her scent. The smell of red wine and gentle lavender filled your lungs, and you began to cry hysterically into the fabric, trying to keep yourself from hyperventilating, and failing miserably. You eventually became dehydrated, unable to cry any more. You went numb, wondering how you were supposed to move forward without your best friend. You lay shaking, clutching the t-shirt for dear life, as you cruelly dreamt of the life you'd never have. A life spent loving Emily Prentiss...
my favourite hugs on the show are chimbuck hugs I love the way chim just snuggles in there

"Can we do that again, please?"
Person A and Person B sneak away from their friends because they kept teasing them about how they should have already had their first kisses. They kiss each other in the end(definitely because they wanted to, for so long)."
"Your lips are so soft."
"You taste better than I expected." (A bit sexy, this one lol)
"You're so red, are you okay?"
"I can hear your heart beating, relax."
Person B takes Person A on a date, as "friends". But they later end up confessing their feelings and making out.
Person A is nervous when Person B leans in, so they back away a bit. Person B tells them that 'it's okay, we don't have to do this if you're not-', but before they can finish, Person A kisses them.
Person A end up confessing their feelings when they are drunk, they didn't expect Person B to reciprocate their feelings. A has difficulty believing them, and B kisses them to prove it.
First kiss as childhood best friends(who were separated), and then first kiss as adults.
"How are you so good at kissing?"
"Did we really just do that?"
Blushing and kissing again, until their lips are swollen.
Here is a short and sweet starter kit , 3 author, of fics I would recommend to literally anyone, not just Thiam shippers, to get you into the wonderful ship that it Thiam! I included, the number of chapters, words and the status of each fic because those things are always something I like to know personally, but if you don’t care ignore them lol!! I hope you enjoy!
To start: What is Thiam? Thiam is the ship name for Liam Dunbar and Theo Raeken in the Teen Wolf fandom.
Is Thiam canon? Technically Thiam is not cannon, but there is a lot of speculation that it was either intended to be or should be. Lots of fans see a lot of sexual and emotional tension and chemistry between the two characters and I would say I have to agree. People tend to write Liam as bi and Theo as either bi or gay. I personally see both characters written in the show as bi, along with Stiles.
Now lets get into the recommendations!

Friends! Here we are! Week one of the inaugural Dronarry Fest in the books!!! And what a week one it’s been! We’ve had epic romance, we’ve had incredible art (those. freckles.), we’ve had angst and humor and ghosts oh my! And much more to come! Until then, why not kick back with a beverage and snack of choice, take a look at our amazing works from this week (as always, mind the tags!), and leave a kudos, leave a comment, and give our wonderful MAs some much-deserved love!
Ron Weasley is a people guy. Gets on well with others, loves to socialise. Despite that, he can never figure people out. When Hermione reveals a very intimate secret about Harry, Ron begins to wonder about a few things. And when Draco Malfoy comes back to England and insinuates his way into Ron’s life, the wondering kicks up a gear. CW: Threesome, infedelity worries, implied consent
This is exactly the kind of stuff I want when I’m exploring this ship. Three people equally madly in love with each other, meeting emotional needs that no two of them would be enough for. - gr8k8
This was AMAZING. Draco being an Amy Winehouse fan is something I didn’t know I needed, but wow, I really did. - papercupmixmaster
Every so often, Harry and Draco invite someone to join them in the bedroom. Ron is by far their favourite.
one word: PERFECTION 😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 - bluebutter
MA, you have stolen my breath with this - maesterchill
After one too many exorcists are sent his way, Ron packs his nonexistent bags and finds a new place to haunt– a gothic little mansion. Problem is, the snooty werewolf proves hard to drive insane, and then a vampire decides to show up for good measure. CW: non-graphic violence, references to non-consensual drug use, mild blood
I’ve literally only read the first line and I’m already loving it. - lumosatnight
Loved this story, the crack nature of it, the sweetness, it’s so so good. I could keep reading for ages it was lovely! - schmem_14
They meet every one hundred years. At the same time, at the same pub. They order the same drinks and share the same air. Each time, however, is not the same. Ron is not the same. CW: Alternate Universe, Inspired by The Sandman, Immortality, Angst, Jealousy, Implied Sexual Content, Very Mild Breathplay
Omg this was absolutely amazing!!! You totally captured the dreamling vibe, and the prose!!! Delightful. - BlueSundayCake
This story is fantastic! I love how you weaved these boys into this world, it works so well, and the atmosphere is an absolute dream (no pun intended 😅). - wolfpants
hi do you have a post about the timeline in 911 like with the year and the seasons and so including season 5
Hi anon!
I don't *technically* have a post w/ the timeline, so I'm using your ask as an opportunity to make one!
I'm going to put this under a cut, bc currently I have actually no idea what's going on with the timeline for s5, and as things air, I'll update this continually, and it can be used as the most updated resource whenever you open it!
I could not resist adding commentary sometimes, sorry 😅
*disclaimer - I understand the crossover is supposed to line up w LS’s timeline or whatever but it absolutely does not work for our timeline. So this is purely OG’s timeline, bc I don’t watch LS, and also our timeline is a lot more logical.*
911 OG timeline under the cut!
Just a note - anything that’s currently speculation is gonna be in blue. As we get confirmation of things, I’ll add in confirmed info and put things in black, and anything that’s wrong will be removed/edited.
Also, episodes tend to happen over several days’ time, so if you’re looking for an EXACT date for a little scene in an ep, I mostly don’t have it for you, but you should put it within the week I’ve given, relative to where it went in the ep. (Eg a call later in the ep would be more likely to have happened on Thursday or Friday.)
Also re: s4. COVID does not work as a good timeline indicator for this show, AT ALL. Its sort of like the whole “do they have regular shifts” debate - the writers wrote the stories they wanted to tell, and then fit COVID in around that. Also it got really screwed by them being done filming before it hit, but not having aired any of s3B yet. And then both bc COVID can’t be used to figure out time, and also bc it wasn’t aired normally, it is a lot more nebulous timeline-wise, I did my best though 😂
-Pre Series-
1966-1967: Athena is born.
1967: Bobby is born.
Mid Mar 1977: Chim is born (this has the potential to change in the future, details on why found here)
Sometime July - Dec 1979: Hen is born.
1983: Maddie is born.
1985: Daniel is born.
1987 - 1992: Eddie is born SOMETIME in this time window. Personally I like him in 1989/90, bc it makes him 21 when Christopher is born, but I think 1987 is also very plausible since that’s when RG is born.
Fall 1989: “Athena Begins” starts, continues through 1991 (Emmett dies on Feb 17th, 1991).
Somewhere between Feb 15 and mid September 1991: Buck is born.
Sometime Aug - Dec 1992: Daniel dies.
2000: Albert is born.
Aug 2000 - Feb 2001: Michael and Athena get married.
2002: May is born. (Discussion on May’s birth year here)
2005: Chim joins the firehouse, events of Chimney Begins stretch out over ~2007?? Unclear exact time frame but before Hen joins and over at least a year, if not more.
2006: Josh joins dispatch.
Sometime?? In 2008: Hen joins LAFD to be a paramedic. I really don’t have a good measure for this one bc it apparently takes years to become a paramedic but this is one area where the writers don’t give a SHIT about reality bc she has to join in 2008 for a comment in Future Tense to make sense. So just - early 2008 probably for this one.
Jan 2009: Hen joins the 118.
2009: Harry is born.
2010 or early 2011: Eddie enlists in the army for the first time - coincides with Shannon getting pregnant. (As of now, no idea if they were married before or after she got pregnant. Timeline of him enlisting in response to the pregnancy though indicates to me maybe they were already married.)
2011: Denny is born.
2011: Christopher is born. (Anyone curious, personally, I’d put his birthday somewhere in Jan-early March, late May-early Sept, purely bc I refuse to think at this point that Christopher’s birthday has happened while the show has been airing and Eddie hasn’t mentioned it. So it must be during usual hiatus times 😂)
Dec of 2014: “Bobby Begins Again” starts.
2015: Eddie is deployed a second time, his helicopter crashes/he’s discharged from Army/Shannon leaves him and Christopher
Sometime Aug-Dec 2016: Bobby becomes captain of the 118.
Aug 2017: Buck joins the 118.

1925
"Steve you have to let me come. Mom said so" Daphne said, ignoring her brother's glares as she dragged her bike out to the street.
"Don't you have something you'd rather do here?" Steve sighed.
"Yeah, like playin' with dolls or something?" Bucky asked. Daphne turned around, glaring at the boy who her brother decided was going to be his new best friend.
She and Steve always did everything together. Then one day Steve tells her that Bucky was his new best friend and she couldn't be his best friend because she was his sister. Some type of stupid boy rules that she didn't understand.
Bucky didn't seem to like Daphne very much. He spent every moment teasing her, pulling on her pigtails, and laughing when she yelled at him to stop. But she didn't let it get to her. She had tough skin. At least that's what her mom said.
The fact that she didn't let his teasing get to her seemed like it made Bucky only want to tease her more.
"No, James," she said, smiling when she saw how much using his first name bothered him. "I can play with dolls tomorrow. Today I want to ride my bike."
"Well we don't want you to come with us," Steve said, hopping on his own bike. "Why? Because you know I'll be faster than both of you?" she asked, laughing as she started biking away from them.
Steve cursed as he quickly followed behind her. "Cheater!" he shouted, racing after her.
Bucky scoffed as he started after them, knowing he could catch up to both of them easily but decided to let them have their little race.
He didn't really know why he didn't like Daphne. He just didn't. Being around her made his palms sweaty and his heart start beating really fast. Sometimes his stomach would even hurt like butterflies were flying around inside.
And that had to be a bad thing. It had to mean that he just really, really hated her.
1934
"Steve home?"
Daphne looked up from the book she was reading and nodded, seeing Bucky standing in front of her. "What are you reading?" he asked.
Showing him the cover of the book, he couldn't help but laugh. "The Performance and Design of Direct Current Machines. Of course. Here I thought you'd be reading something like Mary Poppins" he said.
"Yeah, I bet you love Mary Poppins" she laughed, as he sat down next to her on the steps that led up to her apartment door. "But this is actually very interesting."
Taking the book from her, he frowned as he flipped through the pages. "I don't even think this is English," he said.
"Maybe, you're just not smart enough to read it" she scoffed, taking the book from him. Over the past years, things had changed between them. Even if it was unspoken. The teasing didn't stop but it wasn't mean and instead of Bucky teasing Daphne it was usually her and Steve teasing him.
But he didn't mind. Slowly he realized what the sweaty palms were about. The rapid beating of his heart and the butterflies in his stomach. He was growing sweet on his best friend's sister. And he hated himself for it.
He felt like a bad friend. Out of all the girls in the city he could've chosen it just had to be Daphne Rogers. Steve would kill him if he ever knew. He tried his best to hide it. Going on dates with other girls but he'd find himself growing bored only a few minutes in.
He'd make a joke that he knew Daphne would've laughed at or he'd ask a question the girl couldn't answer but he know Daphne would've been able to.
Steve walked out, the metal screen door slamming behind him. "Hey. You ready?" he asked, looking at Bucky.
"Yeah. You coming?" Bucky asked looking at Daphne as he stood up.
"No. I'm gonna finish reading. I still have volumes three and four to get through" she said, gesturing to the stack of books next to her.
Bucky nodded, always in awe of how much information she could soak in and how much of a genius she was. He always joked that she should have her IQ tested. That she could be the next Einstein.
"We'll be back soon," Steve said and she nodded, watching them walk down the steps down the stairs.
Letting out a breath she wasn't even aware she was holding, Daphne sighed rubbing a hand through her hair.
She really needed to get it together. Bucky was her brother's best friend. There was no way she could have a crush on him. Not to mention she knew for sure that he wasn't interested.
1940
"So you'll talk to him for me?"
"Yeah, sure I'll talk to him for you, Dottie."
Like hell, she would. Everyone had a crush on Bucky. And with Daphne being related to his best friend she was the one everyone wanted to talk to when they wanted a date with him.
The first couple of times she did it. But seeing him actually go out with them, laughing and dancing, having a good time. It made her want to throw up. So now, she'd just lie.
Tell him that he said he wasn't interested. It broke her heart to see him talking to other girls she wasn't gonna help him do that.
Bucky didn't have it much easier. Guys were coming up to him all the time. Asking all sorts of questions about her. Whether or not she was she was seeing someone, if he thought they had a chance.
The worst was when their questions were anything but innocent. If he ever got a piece of her. If that's the only reason he hung around Steve. It made him sick, hearing what they'd have to say about her.
He got into one too many fights about it. Fights that she never approved of. Especially when she was certain she could take care of herself.
Walking down the street one day and being cornered by a man who just couldn't take no for an answer was how Bucky had found himself in his most recent fight. He had been walking home and snapped when he saw the uncomfortable look on her face and the man's hand, resting on her waist.
"You're an idiot," Daphne said, dipping at the cut on his eyebrow. It was the first thing she said to him after bringing him back to her apartment, forcing him to sit on the toilet so she could fix him up.
"That's a weird way of saying thank you" he scoffed, wincing as the antiseptic stung. "I didn't need you to step in for me. I had everything under control" she said.
"Yeah, it definitely looked like it" he mumbled.
"What's that supposed to mean?" Daphne asked, mildly offended as she tossed the rag she was using down at him.
"Nothing, I just-"
"Daph? You home?" Steve shouted as he walked out. Glaring down at Bucky she walked out, greeting Steve in the living room as she walked to her room.
"You're friends in the bathroom. He was being a complete idiot" she said, before slamming the door to her room closed. Steve, confused turned toward Bucky who walked out of the bathroom, holding the rag to his head.
"What happened to you?" Steve asked. "Nothing" Bucky sighed, plopping down on the sofa, his head throbbing as he did. "Need an ice pack?" Steve asked.
"Yeah."
─── · 。゚☆: *.☽ .* :☆゚. ───
It had been a few hours of Daphne locking herself in her room before she finally walked out, the apartment dark. Steve's door was closed and he was probably asleep. Making her way to the kitchen she looked down and rolled her eyes seeing Bucky asleep on the couch.
She stared at him for a moment before cursing to himself, not being able to just leave him there. Walking back into her room she grabbed a blanket before bringing it back out, draping it over him.
"What are you doing?" he asked, his voice groggy as he looked up at her in the dark. "Making sure you don't freeze to death," she said, not looking up at him but still fixing the blanket over him.
"It's not that cold," he said, still staring at her. "I'll take it back then," she said, thinking he didn't want her help before he grabbed her wrist.
"I didn't mean it like that," he said, now whispering so he didn't wake up Steve. Daphne didn't say anything, only nodding as was about to leave him but he didn't loosen his grip on her wrist.
"You're mad at me," he said.
"I'm not mad at you," she said.
"Yeah, you are. I can feel it" he told her.
"I'm not mad. I'm just...you don't need to come to my rescue all the time. I'm not helpless" she said.
"I don't think you're helpless," he said, sitting up. "Yes, you do. You don't think I can stand up for myself" she said.
"That's not true. I do think you can stick up for yourself. But just because you can doesn't mean you should" he said.
"How did you even know I needed help? What if I wanted to talk to him?" she asked, sitting next to him, taking some of the blanket as he offered it to her.
"Did you?" he asked.
"No. But that's not the point. What if I did?" she asked.
"What if I didn't want you to talk to him?" Bucky asked. "Since when do you care who I talk to?" Daphne asked.
"Since you stopped telling me which ones of your friends were interested in me," he said, smirking at her as she shook her head.
"That's different?" she told him.
"How is that different?" he asked. "Because Dottie isn't your type," she said like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Dottie?"
"Cooper."
"Dottie Cooper? I didn't know about her. I was talking about Margaret" he said. "No Margaret was three weeks ago. I didn't tell you about her because she's got the attention span of a goldfish" she said, a small smile on her face when he laughed.
"Right. And what's wrong with Dottie Cooper?" he asked. Daphne sighed as she shook her head.
"Nothing. I guess" she mumbled. Bucky looked down at her confused. "If nothing's wrong with her why didn't you tell me?" he asked.
Daphne just shrugged, playing with the frayed edges of the blanket. "Daph, come on. You've always got something to say. Don't go quiet on me now" he said, gently nudging her arm.
"Because nothing's wrong with her. You might actually like her" she said.
"You didn't tell me about her because you think I might actually like her?" Bucky asked trying to make sense of what she was saying.
Shaking her head, Daphne stood up, her throat suddenly dry and she really needed some water.
"Woah, hey. What does that mean?" he asked, following her into the kitchen. "Nothing. Bucky, just drop it" she said, filling up a glass with water.
"You know for the smartest person I've ever met you're not really making a lot of sense right now," he said.
"Bucky. Drop it" she said.
Bucky sighed as he leaned against the countertop.
"Matthew Henderson wants to ask you out," he told her.
"What?
"I told him you were seeing someone," he said.
"Why would you tell him that?" she asked. Matthew Henderson was cute. And he wasn't a complete idiot. She couldn't have Bucky and Matthew might not have been too bad of a backup.
"Same reason you didn't tell me about Dottie. You might've actually liked him. And seeing you with him might've actually killed me" he said.
"I didn't say that last part," she said, shaking her head. "I just guessed," he said, taking what was probably the biggest leap of faith in his life as he pressed a hand to her waist.
"Bucky" she mumbled, not really knowing what to say but she knew she didn't want him to let go of her.
"I think I have someone better for you to go out with," he said, his voice still low and quiet as he stepped closer to her.
"We can't" she whispered, thinking of her brother who'd kill them both.
"Daphne," he said, cradling her head in his hands and forcing her to look up at him. "Daph, please. Please just let me kiss you."
Daphne nodded, not trusting her own voice as their lips met, standing in the darkness of her kitchen, her hands resting on his cheeks.
The butterflies were back again. And his heart was beating out of his chest. But it wasn't a bad thing. It just meant that he really, really loved her.
