THE SCREAM I LET OUT WAS NOT HUMAN

[dumbbitchenergy17]

Oh Clan of Three girlies the ideas that are brewing in my head from this trailer 😵‍💫😵‍💫

[bebx]

[dumbbitchenergy17]

Will you be returning to clan of three and writing more?? Not trying to pressure you, just curious!!

I hope to write more, especially when the Mandalorian and Grogu come out, and include it in the canon of Clan of Three. I have the sequels that contain the characters from Clan of Three in the outline phase, but I haven't gotten the inspiration to write more.

I'd love it if any of you guys had suggestions or what you'd like to see from the characters you all love so much!

[snoopysupe]

—————

“Shit!” You curse, lowering the rifle in frustration. Tommy’s hand rests on your shoulder to ease your tension.

“Hey, don’t get too hung up over it,” Tommy says as you keep your gaze stuck on the small town to see if maybe it comes back out when you spot something completely different. You see a scruffy little girl wandering through the streets in practically rags, ice fills your veins as you see them wander into the diner. Swinging your rifle over your shoulder, you almost hit Tommy in the face as you rush to Red, saddling her quickly.

“Hyah Red!” With a snap of your reins, Red takes off, kicking up some snow, shocking Tommy and Ellie, who quickly mount their horses chasing you.

“Y/n, Stop!” Tommy yells. Ellie yells some pleas for you to stop, but you ignore them, urging Red to go fast as she races down the ridge to the town, leaving them in the dust.

It was a miscalculation on your part, and other factors, and riding a horse through conditions that weren’t suitable. Star, the horse known on the show as Red, slips on an ice-over patch of snow. Trying to control herself while going fast, all it took was for Star to twist to her side, and her equilibrium was thrown off. It happens so fast that you don’t even realize Star is falling to her side as she lets out a cry. You’re flung from the saddle, thankful to miss the massive weight of the horse flipping as well. You’re pretty sure you blacked out, pure adrenaline and survival instinct, kicking in to protect your head when you hit the snowy ground. One second you’re riding to where the set town is, then you’re looking up at the grey skies. Each inhalation feels forced, almost choking to catch your breath, groaning with each inhale. Your ears ring, but you can hear muffled shouts draw near as your gaze remains focused on the sky, unable to move. An unpleasant sound like some forced whine or groan, not realizing it’s coming from you. Something metallic hits the back of your throat; you must have bitten your tongue or cheek during the fall. Part of you yelled at yourself for being so still in this moment and not running in a panic, screaming at you to survive. There was no fear in you as you lay in the snow, as your view of the clouds was blocked by a horde of people.

“Y/n, can you hear me?” A medic most likely says. Shining a small light in your eyes, and you wince, groaning. You feel other hands on your body, probably checking for other injuries. “Pupil's response looks good. Y/n, I need you to take a few good deep breaths. You most likely have the wind knocked out of you.” He says, guiding you to take a deep inhale.

You groan loudly as you inhale, “Fuck….” You whine, your eyes burning, tears sliding down the sides of your face.

“What hurts, Y/n?” He asks, and you hear Craig mumble, “Jesus Christ.”

“Everything….I don’t…think any…anything’s broken.” You wheeze out, and the medic nods.

“That’s good. We've got a stretcher board that we’ll put you on and get you over to the hospital.” He says, and you groan.

“I’m fine. How’s…Star?” You say, but immediately wince as you inhale. The medic gives you a look.

“Y/n, I love you, but shut up. You’re going to the hospital.” Craig says, and you sigh. You know multiple people who were going to be pissed. Once the board is under you, they lift you like you weigh nothing, bringing you over to the stretcher. You feel pathetic seeing the concern and pity looks from the crew as they strap you in. You see Bella standing beside Gabriel, looking utterly distraught.

“I’m fine,” You tell Bella, and they look unconvinced. “This is gonna…be a funny story we’ll…all laugh about.”

“This isn’t fucking funny Y/n,” Bella calls out and you laugh but wince at the pain that runs through you. You didn’t even notice the ambulance was already there right as you were getting loaded in.

“Nobody tell Pedro…or Paul!” You shout as Craig comes in, letting the assistant director take over to join you on the ride to the hospital. Craig still looks worried, like you’re gonna drop dead, and you reach over, grabbing his arm.

“When this…is all over, I need to see that…footage,” you beg. He rolls his eyes, unable to hide the small smirk.

“Only you can find the humor in this shit,” he retorts and you shrug as the paramedic inserts a hand iv and gives you some kind of drugs for the pain.

“While I’m in a fuck…ton of pain. There’s no reason to….cry over this…shit,” You wheeze, “I got decked in the face….for Star Wars…and now I’ve flipped off a horse. I’m dedicated to…the craft.” Craig shakes his head, and even the paramedic in the other seat chuckles at your antics.

“You know Pedro and Paul are going to lose their shit when they find out,” Craig reminds you and you respond with a groan.

“They’re gonna whoop my ass.”

The hospital doors burst open as two men rushed over to the nurses' station in the emergency room.

“Where is she?” Paul demands speed over from the hotel where they are staying, while Pedro rushes from the set when he gets the news.

“Name?” The nurse asks in front of a computer.

“Y/n L/n.” Paul and Pedro say at the same time.

“Your relation?” She questions, looking at the two men over.

Paul, frustrated by that lack of urgency, “She’s my fiancée. Y/n, where is she?”

“Hey, they’re good,” Craig calls out, having appeared out of nowhere. The nurse lets them pass as Craig leads them to your room.

“What the hell even happened?” Pedro asks, taking the more rational approach given that Paul was in the deep end, stressing over his fiancée.

“Patch of ice took out her and Star, then two completed flipped over,” Craig sighs, “She’s lucky as hell, taking that big of a fall with no helmet and not getting crushed.”

The two stop in front of a room, and Paul doesn’t wait a second, bursting in, finding you in bed still dressed in your costume, an IV in your hand, midbite of a sandwich.

“Shit.” You mumble as Paul practically crowds you, looking you all over for any visible injuries.

“You’re gonna give me a fucking heart attack one of these days,” Paul says before giving you a passionate kiss pouring his fear and concern, “Why can’t you just let a stunt woman do the scene.”

You give a goofy smile and shrug, “Cause I look cool as fuck.”

Paul looks over at Craig, given your dumb expression. “They gave her some morphine for the pain. No concussion, thankfully no broken bones, but she’s got a few bruised ribs. She’s gonna be feeling it for the next few days.”

“You should have seen it. I was like, on the horse, then boom, looking at the sky.” You giggle, “Thought I died for a second.” All three men give you a look at your morbid comment.

“Jesus Christ, Y/n.” Pedro pinches the bridge of his nose. Paul sighs, kissing your temple, and you hum at the contact.

“You’re on bed rest. We are limiting your stunt scenes,” Craig says, and you whine.

“Nooo, I have to be cool.” You frown, and Pedro pets your hair back.

“You can be cool watching your stunt woman do your scenes,” Pedro says, and you sigh. Craig heads out, leaving the three of you. Pedro rests his chin on your head while Paul leans against your shoulder. You were everything they were looking for in a friend and lover but holy fuck were you exhausting to deal with whatever trouble you get yourself in.

“I think we need to blacklist you from any action scenes,” Paul says.

Pedro chuckles, nodding, “You need to invest in something less adrenaline-inducing.”

You just hum as you three settle into the comfortable silence.

“Do you guys wanna see the footage someone on the camera team sent me?”

Where the Wild Things Are - Epilogue

Epilogue

Plot: Wild men or monstrous infected creatures, the world is wild and ravaged by Cordecyps, but some are raised in it and flourish, becoming a wild thing.

Word Count: 1.1K

Pairing: Joel Miller x Platonic!Teen!Reader, Ellie Williams x Platonic!Reader

Warnings: canon-typical fighting/violence, comfort, tw: light description of injuries, mention of trauma from abusive mother, mention description of child neglect/abuse

—————

The sun is warm on your skin as the summer breeze causes the hair on your arms to rise, but as the cool wind passes, you settle. Your legs dangle over the cliffside that has a clear view of Jackson, the large walls that protect all inside and keep the dangers out. The knife in your hand wittles at the wooden handle of your revolver, carving right below a date.

The drumming of an animal’s approach vibrates the ground before you can hear them on your left side. Your hand tightens around the weapon as you. You see Joel climbing off his horse, taking a moment to pet Red’s snout. You relax your grip, returning to your work carving at the next number. You feel his presence as he sits on your left side despite his right-sided deafness.

“They’re healing nicely,” he hums, and you look at your forearms that were visible from your pushed up sleeves, what once was covered in scars from surviving alone and the trauma of your mother was now covered in an artwork of ink. Vines and greenery wrap around your wrists, traveling up and ending at your biceps. Cat had been careful when handling the healing scars and easily with her skill and Ellie coming up with the design to cover the pain you experience with something beautiful.

You nod. “Cat says I have one more session to get some final bits hidden,” returning your gaze to the revolver in your hands, wiping away the wood shavings revealing the final product. Joel frowns at the dates that line the handle, ‘03/21’ and ‘05/13/25.’ You had explained the first date being when you left your mother, what you know now as the day you were meant to die by the plot she had planned against you. The second is the same date that is written on the memorial in Tommy’s home for your younger sister.

Joel’s hand rests on your shoulder, and you can feel the guilty look on his face. “Kiddo…”

You don’t let him finish. “Where did you go off to?” you question, tucking the weapon to its holster away from his view and shifting to face him more. You see him hesitant to push away the conversation you’ve spent circling with people close to you. He grabs his pack and grunts like it’s extremely heavy, putting it between you both.

“The patrols said that nearby town was picked through but was able to snag some goods that might be worth your wild,” he explains while unzipping his back and pulling out a familiar object. It’s dusty and in decent condition for all these years of ‘Lord of the Flies. ’ A bit of a morbid choice given the circumstances, but you couldn’t deny the intrigue to the topic. You grab the book, tracing the embossing from the hardcover the jacket cover long missing. “Happy birthday, kid,” he whispers, trying not to disturb your silence.

“Not really a kid anymore,” You remind him that you were technically nineteen, an adult, “How did you know?” You would’ve remembered if you had a conversation with Joel about a hobby that was close to you, especially during your times of isolation.

“Ellie may have mentioned a book or two.” he pulls out another book, a title you have read before as a child, and you eagerly look over it, remembering the premise but it being a while since you’ve read it. Joel smiles softly, seeing the quirk of your lips, an almost childlike wonder in your eyes as you take over, pulling out book after book of titles you’ve cared for.

Joel starts putting each book back in the bag to make sure they are damaged, “We can stop by and if there’s anything else you’d want we can bring to Jackson” he looks over at you and your still in your hands one of the last books that was once deep within his bag. Your fingers shake slightly as it traces the title before flipping open the cover and on the inside written in handwriting and spelling that was still learning, ‘propurty of y/n’ you can still remember trying to get any form of attention from your mother before she yelled at you to leave her be throwing this at you to keep you occupied. The content was intense for your young mind at the time, but you would spend hours looking over the pictures, using them as a guide to what the sentences meant. When you left that fateful night, the book was tucked within your bag in case you got bored despite being much too old for it. From Kansas City to Jackson, you assumed it was destroyed when the raiders attacked you, and you haven’t returned since—to know he went there to collect it, to visit where they rest and collect something that stuck with you so long in your childhood.

Joel grows nervous seeing you still deadly quiet, trying to do damage control. “If it’s too much, I can get rid of it.”

“Thank you,” the quietness from you silences him, tears rest on your lashes before you quickly swipe them away and clear your throat, “Thank you Joel.” your voice still thick with emotion.

Joel gives a faint smile and thumbs away a stray tear you missed, and you don’t flinch at the comforting touch, easily welcoming his warmth and care. He looks out as the sun was starting to make its descent behind the mountains and horizon.

“Let’s get you home,” Joel stands holding his hand out, “Maria is cooking up a big meal for you.” You smile at the thought, taking his hand as he pulls you to your feet. He slings the heavy backpack over his shoulder while you grab your pack, still holding the book in your hands. Joel trails ahead, prepping the horses while your gaze over the cover the images no longer vibrant before weathered away with time and suffering.

“Kiddo, you ready?” Joel calls out to you as you still stand on the cliffside, your gaze moves from the man you now call a father, the town down below you call home, the weapon on your hip that holds your guilt, to the book that held your past.

‘Where the Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak’

You weren’t sure you could call yourself a wild thing anymore; there was no reason to be.

“Kid?” Joel, your father repeats himself, and you look back at him. You head to him, putting the book into your pack in its rightful place all those years ago.

“Coming, Dad.”

A/N: And another series is over...This started in April of 2023, and it's now March 2025. I'm in awe of you all for continuing to push me to keep writing. I am incredibly grateful for all the love and support you have given me. I can't wait to put my attention onto another series of mine and let you all see what I have in store. Thank you all again so much for reading this and loving it as much as I have. xx

Vanity Fair

Plot: Vanity Fair returns again to shoot for the upcoming Mandalorian film

Word Count: 1.8K

Pairing: Paul Mescal x Reader, Pedro Pascal x Platonic!Reader

Warnings: sweet "father-daughter" moments, laughter&giggles, just general fluff, reader is a badass

—————

It’s always a joy to fly out to California for a photo shoot in which you were dying to be involved. You were excited to receive news from your team of another cover shoot for Vanity Fair for the Mandalorian and Grogu with the amazing Annie Leibovitz who did the cover shoot for the Star Wars series in 2022 when you wrapped season three. 

Paul with a clear schedule from productions was working on tagged along with his words, “I get to see my girlfriend and Pedro in action and be on vacation sign me up.”

After a flight and a long sleep at the hotel, you were up and at it earlier at the studio, trapped in hair and makeup. Paul was easily handled by Pedro, who showed up with a later call time and minimal work done in the makeup trailer. Paul looks in wonder at the large virtual soundstage, and it looks like they are on another planet.

“This is insane man,” Paul breathes out spinning in a circle, any kid would freak out thinking they were on a real planet. Pedro laughs as Coco tweaks some stray hairs as the Mandalorian helmet rests on his hip.

“That’s how I felt when I first got on set it’s otherworldy with the build sets then adding this changes the whole environment,” Pedro explains and Paul nods.

“Home sweet home,” You hum strolling onto the set. Paul has to do a double take and Pedro lets out a loud whistle.

“Loving the new hairdo,” Pedro says as you mock gasp pointing at your new short wig. Your hair barely touched your chin in a shag style a big difference from your natural hair and from what he’s seen of the show your character’s.

“This ol’ thing. I originally was gonna cut it short but with Where the Wild Things Are better just to use a wig.” You say and smile up a Paul, “Like the new look?”

You felt so comfortable in your new costume for this film, you loved all of your season’s looks especially season three with your cloak and so glad it continued with this piece. You wore dark pants with padding at the knees, grey boots that stopped right before your knee, a long-sleeved off-white shirt with paneling all down the chest, and sleeves that ombre to a dirty grey, and your favorite part the long tattered brown cloak that comes with a hood. In tune with your character a holster around your belt and hip for your blaster and vibro-knife, plus the buckle where your saber hilt rests.

“Very cool looking and comfortable,” He hums feeling the fabric of your cloak, and you sway allowing the fabric to swoosh around you.

“I got my cloaks and you got your skirts.” You tease at his costuming for his project and he huffs out a laugh.

You and Pedro are called to your places getting a decent view of Paul who stands beside Coco and your hairstylist as you’re guided by Annie to pose. 

“It’s a bit weird knowing you’re under there,” You comment to Pedro who stands beside you as the crew tweaks a few lights, “I’m so used to Brendan or Lateef here.”

You hear the muffled chuckle from him underneath the helmet.

“They should’ve photoshopped my face onto them for this. I could’ve been home sleeping.” He says and you scoff shoving his shoulder making him only laugh louder.

They have this huge wind machine that has your cloak blowing in the breeze and Pedro’s smaller one too. It’s a lot of broody looks with the two of you standing further apart, representing the distance between you. They move to solo shots starting with Pedro as your stylist tweaks strands of hair and powders your face as they replace your hilt for the full LED saber.

“Sick huh,” You smirk at Paul who looks over the detailing in the hilt to the exposed channel that holds the kyber crystal.

“Can you still handle that thing?” He teases and you give him a betrayed look and you hear Coco stifle back a laugh.

“How dare you—” Before you can go off on him you’re called on to replace Pedro who is taking off the helmet coming over.

Pedro gives Coco and Paul a confused look at the determined look on your face as you pass, “What’s up with her?”

“Paul questioned if she can still handle the lightsaber,” Coco says and Pedro gives Paul a shocked look as if the question was aimed at him.

“You know she’s got like five years of training with that thing, it’s practically muscle memory now?” Pedro says as the three of them watch you stand on the sand soundstage posing a glint in your eyes. Pedro elbows Paul in the side, “You’re gonna get it now.”

“Alright can we get a little action from you for both video and photo,” Annie says as the other camera person gets another angle.

“Whatever I want?” You ask and Paul should have noticed the hole he dug himself in. You were about to flame his ass from his comment.

“Your comfort level,” Annie says and you give a slight nod twisting your wrist to twirl the saber lightly. Tracing your foot along the sand to get a solid footing before doing a simple sequence you’ve been honing for a while, especially in this costume piece. You twirl the saber around your body seamlessly to others at a jaw-dropping place, you drag your foot through the sand kicking it up slightly as you start your rotation with your back toward the camera as you let go of the saber a skill you’ve been practicing for months.

Practically half of the crew’s jaws drop including Paul as the blade flips and twirls freely in the air behind your back as you complete your rotation catching it in your non-dominant hand before slicing at the camera. It’s quiet for a bit before someone starts clapping and you smile giving a bit of a dramatic bow catching Paul’s gaze a smug look on your face. Your face screams ‘How’s that for handling it?’

“I think we’re good on those shots and a riveting performance,” Annie says and you smile walking off the set with a bounce in your step. The crew changes the set around as you return the stunt saber to the weapons handler.

Pedro claps you on the shoulder, “Very impressive chiquita?”

“How the hell?” Paul breathes out and you shrug acting all innocent.

“That? Just a little something on the fly,” you shrug, coming over, “Maybe not question someone who has been in color guard since the sixth grade, where these skills are a cakewalk.” You press a kiss to his cheek before heading off to change into your next costume. Paul watches you walk away, talking casually to your stylist, and he can feel gazes on him, seeing both Pedro and Coco giving him knowing looks.

“Damn, she’s got you whipped,” Paul’s face flushes red as Pedro let out a full-body laugh and Coco has to hide her laughter behind her hand.

The rest of the shoot was so much fun especially when the Grogu puppet was brought on set to get ‘family’ portraits done. It was always fun being with Pedro, but the two of you were never able to act seriously on set. After a few hours, you wrapped heading back to the makeup trailer to return to normal.

“Ugh, my hair was screaming to be freed,” You say massaging your scalp as you walk up to Paul who is waiting at a crafty table. He smirks seeing your very casual attire, your hair out from under all the pins and wig caps a bit messy in some jeans and one of his graphic tees.

“You always gonna steal my shirts,” He pulls at the hem of his shirt and you grin up at him.

“They are so comfy and better than mine,” You comment and he rolls his eyes while taking your hand as you head to the car.

“Pedro invited us out to dinner tonight,” He brings up and you hum letting your hands swing as you walk. It’s silent between you two until he looks down at you, “Should I be scared of your quietness?”

You just hum and he can see a teasing glint in your eyes, “Oh nothing just thinking that if Tiya and Lucius were in a fight I would whoop your ass.” That has Paul laughing.

“I love you but I highly doubt you would beat Lucius.” He comments.

“I’m a jedi!” You retort and he shakes his head,

“Even without the force, she’s facing a twenty-four gladiator and your character is what eighteen?” Paul laughs the competitiveness in him coming out a bit, “Lucius would destroy you.”

“In this film, she’s twenty-one so it’s only three years difference, and even without the force Tiya has better swordsman skills than Lucius,” You point out before whipping out your phone, “Nah I need a fucking poll cause I know she would whoop his ass, hell everyone in that film. If you had her in Gladiator that film would’ve been over in seconds.” Paul laughs as you speedily type up a poll before posting it on your Instagram.

“They are probably gonna say you 'cause they love you more,” Paul comments opening the car door for you before coming around the other side.

“No, I told them to think fairly, a fight on strength and skill no powers from Tiya.” You comment already seeing the polls shifting between the two some defending Tiya and other Lucius. “I think if either of our characters got into a fight that didn’t end in blood Tiya would probably find Lucius intriguing.” Your comment has Paul smirking as he reverses out of the parking spot.

“A jedi with a gladiator how scandalous,” He grins and you giggle.

“I mean she likes her men that can fight so most likely but Lucius is too devout for his wife to think of other women,” Your comments make him groan slightly cursing his character.

“Well I hope Lucius heals to allow him to pursue other women cause Tiya would be right up his alley,” The car gets at a red light and he turns to face you leaning closer, “Good with a sword, strong, deadly…beautiful.”

You lean in over the center console as his eyes dart quickly at your lips before making eye contact. A tension holds between you just a breath away.

Your hum sweetly makes his gaze darken, “The light’s green.” The car honks behind him has him grumbling under his breath as he focuses on the road. You laugh leaning over and pressing a kiss to his jawline.

“Let’s get home huh, gladiator?”

“Whatever you want, jedi.”
