this  entire  last  week  had  been  bonkers  but  there  was  one  thing  that  liam  needed  to  do  in  the  aftermath  —  have  a  little  conversation  with  a  venomous  spider  who  somehow  ended  up  in  his  home.  after  a  little  bit  of  coercion  from  levi,  it  was  quick  to  invite  the  pesky  little  insect  back  in  to  the  wolfe  home  after  hearing  what  lilith  and  lorrin  said  to  him.  liam  didn't  need  to  be  the  fangs  like  lilith  was,  but  he  was  certainly  worried  about  what  this  might  say  or  do  for  the  wolfe's  reputation.  "  perry,  welcome  back.  "  a  weary  smile  as  he  tugged  on  his  ear  as  though  to  subconciously  ground  himself  before  looking  at  him  with  a  knowing  glance.  "  looks  like  it  might  be  time  that  i  interview  you,  hmm?  " @killertwhips

A   NIGHT   IN.   DINNER   FOR   TWO.

it   was   one   of   those   quiet   nights   at   the   manor.   just   leon   humming   a   melody   while   moving   around   the   kitchen   to   grab   different   ingredients   and   utensils.   by   a   stroke   of   luck,   everyone's   plans   aligned   and   it   resulted   in   an   empty   house   all   for   himself.   well,   mostly.   there   was   one   other   wolfe   staying   in   for   the   night,   though   he   hadn't   arrived   yet.   leon   was   a   reserve,   very   private,   who   mostly   kept   to   himself.   his   already   small   social   circle   became   even   smaller   since   he   wasn't   on   speaking   terms   with   his   boyfriend.   so   he   focused   on   his   siblings,   catching   up   on   what   was   going   on   in   their   lives   or   just   gossiping   about   people   they   know.   leon   thought   of   himself   as   the   glue   of   the   family,   often   playing   the   role   of   the   peacemaker,   trying   to   stop   any   bickering   between   his   brothers. eyes   glanced   up   at   the   clock   on   the   wall,   making   sure   he   was   on   schedule.   a   rack   of   lamb   sat   on   the   counter,   resting   under   tin   foil,   while   leon   finished   the   side   dishes:   a   fresh   mint   sauce   and   rosemary   mashed   potatoes.   the   scent   of   lamb   hung   in   the   air,   curled   out   of   the   kitchen   and   into   every   adjacent   room,   inviting.   leon   had   just   finished   setting   the   table   when   his   company   arrived. “   hello,   sweetheart,   ”    he   said   teasingly,   immediately   pouring   a   glass   of   red   wine   and   handing   it   to   his   older   brother.    “   busy   day   today?   ” 

closed starter for @mockcry / liam.

[mockcry]

liam  had  been  doing  a  current  press  tour  for  his  latest  movie  —  corpus  cristi,  the  directorial  debut  of  one  of  liam's  favorite  assistant  directors  on  the  film  he  had  won  his  academy  award  for  supporting  actor  for.  it  was  a  favor  movie,  the  script  was  solid,  but  the  budget  was  small  and  liam  was  happy  to  do  her  this  favor.

walking  in  the  house,  liam  let  out  a  muffled  sigh  to  himself  while  taking  off  his  jacket  and  untucking  his  shirt  to  the  smell  of  lambs.  was  there  an  important  dinner  he  was  missing?  shit.  his  mind  began  to  race  at  what  he  could  be  missing  before  he  peaked  his  head  around  the  corner  to  the  kitchen  before  seeing  it  was  leon  who  had  been  cooking  away  for  them  to  enjoy  a  meal  with  just  the  two  of  them.

"  wow,  you  spoil  me,  leon.  "  shaking  his  head  as  he  looked  at  his  brother  lovingly  and  with  such  admiration.  liam  wasn't  nearly  as  much  of  a  homemaker  as  others  would  expect,  he  hated  wasting  time  in  the  kitchen  when  he  could  be  out  doing  more.  "  just  a  few  more  days  of  press  and  the  movie  releases  in  a  couple  weeks.  "  a  yawn  found  its  way  onto  liam's  lips  as  he  covered  his  mouth,  hoping  it  wasn't  contagious  while  he  looked  around  to  see  if  there  was  anything  he  could  do  ot  pretend  to  help.  "  how  long  have  you  been  cooking  this  feast?  you  really  didn't  have  to,  but  i'm  very  excited  to  eat  when  it's  all  ready.  "

ㅤㅤㅤThe night before might have been a failure, but Perry had fun. He had ran amuck through Wolfe Manor, webbing up security guards and destroying surveillance cameras. Now as he waited to be received into the foyer, he was able to watch them try to clean up the mess he had left them the night before. Perry couldn't act too smug, otherwise they might think him odd. He was merely bewildered, concerned that a villain had dared to break into the mansion in the dead of night. How terrifying! Perry had come in through a window in the kitchen the night before, webbing up a guard onto ceiling before starting his rampage through the house. He waited with a tablet in the foyer, dressed in a sweater with a polo beneath. Perry looked like a consummate professional, and smiled brightly as Leon started down the stairs. " Mr.Wolfe! " He chirps, giving him a wave. " Thank you for seeing me. But if it's a bad time…I can always come back? " Perry sucks his teeth, uncertain if Liam will want to have the interview with so much uncertainty in the air.

[mockcry]

There  was  so  much  that  had  happened  in  the  last  12  hours  that  Liam  was  absolutely  freaking  out  upon  but  he  wasn't  going  to  let  anyone,  especially  the  press,  get  a  single  bead  of  sweat  out  of  him.  Sure,  this  was  absolute  horrible  timing  but,  that  didn't  mean  Liam  didn't  know  how  to  angle  this  into  a  positive.  "  Mr.  Palmer,  it's  so  good  to  see  you.  My  publicist  tried  getting  ahold  of  you  earlier  this  morning  but  I  guess  you  two  weren't  able  to  connect.  "  He'd  known  the  reporter  for  some  time  now  and  the  man  was  brilliant  but  also  very  cutting,  from  what  Liam  could  remember.  Without  skipping  a  beat,  Liam  would  offer  the  man  a  proper  handshake  and  pull  him  in  for  one  of  those  half-hugs  to  disarm  and  help  the  other  feel  more  comfortable  within  the  Wolfe  residence. 

"  Nothing  to  worry  about,  The  Wolfe  Estate  has  state  of  the  art  security  and  various  levels  of  protection  thanks  to  my  father.  A  few  recalibrations  and  we  should  be  all  set.  Very  arrogant  of  whoever  this  was  to  come  to  the  Wolfe  Residence  considering  the  level  of  technology  we  have  to  identify,  track,  and  perpetrate  the  intruder.  "  Taking  a  pause  to  fix  a  single  lock  of  unkempt  hair  to  put  it  into  place,  Liam  gestured  the  other  to  where  they  were  meant  to  have  the  interview.  "  We  have  the  Parlor  set  up  for  the  interview  and  photo  shoot,  i'm  very  excited  to  be  able  to  discuss  my  current  acting  stint  and  how  inspired  i've  been  to  find  projects  and  scripts  beyond  the  beaten  path.  "

˙ ˖ ✶ Liam

"So now I can't smile at the guy who makes it happen so easily? Okay then, I'll just hide it next time." Jace smirked as he softly nipped at Liam's finger, laughing slightly as the man queried. This was supposed to be a one off thing, a night of simple pleasure and not crossing paths again. "I just like the hoodie a lot, smells like you, and the shorts well, I'm in my home, I like being cozy. You saying I should take them off or something, Liam?" Jace teased back pulling the man closer, and he truly could never shake the yearning sensation that came with each kiss. He'd always want more, but wanting and getting were different things and with the Wolfe celebrity, he wasn't sure he'd ever truly get what he so desired.

Kissing Liam, he pouted slightly at the idea that the man wanted a quickie. "If you want quick then you're going to have to be the one topping, I like taking my time with you when I'm the one making you moan my name. Not saying you're not thorough, but I know how selfish I can be when it comes to pleasing you, because I truly want nothing more than to see the faces you make when I'm fucking you," Jace said shrugged as he played with Liam's hair.

"But we don't have to, you can take the butter rolls to go." He said matter of fact-ly before kissing Liam once more. "I understand, just because I've made you part of my routine doesn't mean I'm on yours, you're good to go about your day, Mr. Wolfe." There was a few more words he wanted to ask Liam, but he didn't feel right asking the man. Am I too much?

[mockcry]

Jace  was  so  easy  to  be  around,  the  baker  had  made  pastries  that  Liam  had  no  idea  how  he  made  them  taste  so  delicious.  Luckily  for  him  he  could  control  his  metabolism  or  the  Wolfe  brother  would  have  had  to  spend  far  too  much  time  at  the  gym  for  the  excessive  amounts  he’s  eaten  since  meeting  the  man.  “  You’re  allowed  to  do  whatever  you  want.  ”  A  slight  eyeroll  at  his  jest  in  how  easy  it  was  for  Jace  to  slide  in  exactly  how  Liam  had  wanted  him  —  they  had  always  had  a  great  time  together  and  it’s  why  the  actor  continued  to  come  back  for  more. 

With  eyes  widened,  Liam  wasn’t  entirely  sure  how  to  answer  him  at  how  Jace  liked  to  extend  their  sessions  to  the  point  where  they  were  having  multiple  rounds  until  Jace  was  finally  ready  to  finish.  As  great  as  it  all  was  in  the  moment,  it  meant  Liam  was  often  running  late  to  something  or  other  because  of  it.  “  C’mon,  I  know  you  can  do  it  champ.  ”  His  hand  grabbed  at  the  other’s  face  and  gave  him  a  quick  kiss  right  on  the  lips.  “  Think  you  could  do  it  for  me?  I’ll  make  sure  to  block  off  time  in  my  schedule  for  next  time.  It’ll  be  you  and  me  and  whatever  you’re  in  the  mood  for.  ”  Liam  didn’t  want  to  go  without  getting  what  he  had  come  there  for  and  he  was,  in  fact,  going  to  get  both. 

“  Jace,  don’t  be  like  that.  ”  It  was  inevitable  to  consider  that  Jace  and  Liam  weren’t  anything  but  fuck  buddies  and  it  was  working  for  Liam  quite  well  but  it  seemed  like  maybe,  there  was  more  bubbling  under  the  surface.  “  Alright,  what’s  going  on.  It  sounds  like  we  need  to  have  a  talk.  ”  And  Liam  found  a  seat  for  himself  right  next  to  Jace,  eyes  filled  with  concern  on  how  quickly  it  felt  like  the  mood  shifted  into  something  much  more  intense  and  filled  with  a  heaviness  Liam  hadn’t  been  expecting.

˙ ˖ ✶ Liam

Jace had raided his closet an insurmountable amount of times, trying to decide the perfect thing to wear for when Liam showed up. Which was curious considering most of their time spent together, usually resulted in clothes not being important. Remnants of nights prior still lingered in his mind, the ghost of Liam's touch reminding him how nice it could truly feel to be wanted, even if that feeling was as fleeting as the Wolfe brother.

A celebrity in the limelight, and someone the world catered to in every which way. A small store owner would never be compatible with someone like that. Jace was used to being told he was too much, that his difference was like a chore of a burden, and they didn't wish to be responsible for him. Liam didn't treat him this way.

With the man's approaching arrival, he settled on Liam's hoodie, leaving it opened and he let boxer briefs cover the rest. The butter rolls laid on the counter, a to go box made especially for him. A familiar rapp at the door made him fly out of his seat as he opened the door, greeting the man with an all too giddy smile.

"Hi, I know you know the place already, and you don't need me to show you much at all, but I've got the butter rolls are warmed up in the counter for you, in a to go box, like you asked," As he spoke he kept playing with his own fingers, self regulating from what his mind was trying to say was a stressful situation, but most of him was just happy to see Liam again. He was a safe space in an ever changing world that never allowed him time to prepare.

"It's a southern home cooking recipe, usually passed down through hands and not so much a cook book, so recipe's differ from one another, but at its core it's comfort food. Making a lot with whatever little you have in the pantry, and the sauce is a nice caramelized custard," Jace explained as he walked over to the butter rolls, looking slightly away from Liam, before his eyes landed on the man again, and he found himself smiling. "You smell different, but I like it." @mockcry

[mockcry]

liam  wasn’t  even  entirely  sure  how  a  chance  encounter  at  a  buzzworthy  bakery  had  him  meeting  mr.  fairchild  whose  buttery  pastries  would’ve  bothered  the  wolfe  son  more  if  he  hadn’t  the  ability  to  alter  his  metabolism  to  his  benefit.  it  became  a  staple  when  he  was  shooting  in  town  to  share  with  some  of  his  fellow  coworkers  and  one  thing  let  to  another  and  the  man  had  become  a  soft  place  to  land  after  the  intensity  of  the  wolfe  manor  and  the  pressure  of  being  both  an  actor  and  a  superhero  at  the  same  time.  jace  was  easy  and  let  liam  take  from  him  without  shame  or  pestering  for  more  —  it  was  probably  entirely  unfair  to  the  baker,  but  it  worked  for  liam  and  that’s  all  he  wanted  right  now  while  his  life  was  hectic  and  grueling. 

“  what’s  with  the  smile?  ”  his  face  twisted  into  a  curious  smirk  as  he  poked  at  the  man’s  dimples  on  his  cheek  before  walking  inside  as  liam  had  done  time  and  time  again.  jace  had  a  youthful  energy,  a  spring  in  his  step  and  was  always  so  easily  excitable  when  liam  had  arrived  which  he  would’ve  chalked  up  to  being  a  celebrity  but  it  felt  like  he  would  do  that  with  any  repeat  customer  at  the  bakery.  “  and  the  shorts?  ”  he  teased,  fingertips  pulling  at  where  the  boxer  briefs  ended  on  the  man’s  thick  legs  and  recognizing  the  hoodie  as  well  as  something  he  had  left  as  a  memento  when  he  thought  this  wasn’t  going  to  be  a  common  occurrence. 

“  yeah,  i  have  to  get  back  to  the  manor  shortly  but  it’d  be  rude  to  just  dine  and  dash.  ”  the  shapeshifter  moved  in  with  his  hands  reaching  under  the  hoodie  and  feeling  jace’s  firm  body  against  his  fingertips  as  he  leaned  in  to  give  the  man  a  kiss  while  his  body  pressed  firm  against  the  other.  “  how  quick  can  you  be?  ”

[savioresque]

🎭           *           ﹕ㅤㅤ    it seemed like just any other day in the wolfe manor, just another routine at this point for liam to start some senseless diatribe, about something they'd all forget by tomorrow. levi just wished it happened when he wasn't trying to nap away a hangover on the couch. and he tried to muffle his brother's voice by covering his ears with pillows, but they'd lived together long enough for levi to know that liam wouldn't leave until he got an answer he liked. so he sighed, propped himself up on his elbows and forced himself to listen. ❝ you can't just call everyone i take home prostitutes, you know ? i only pay 'em in attention and a good fucking time anyway, ❞ levi argued, although it was probably futile with how stubbornly liam believed his thoughts to be gospel truth. but of course, levi had his own faults⸻ not completely missing the point, just deliberately ignoring it. but what was the point of having a house if he couldn't bring anyone home ? ❝ and jesus, do you hear yourself ? am i making myself clear ? dude. you know, ever since you worked with that arthouse director and won all those awards, you've gotten exponentially bossy. and that's why no one sleeps with you. ❞

[mockcry]

the  wolfe  manor  often  felt  more  like  a  halfway  house  than  the  headquarters  for  one  of  the  most  prolific  crime  fighting  families  in  the  world.  and  in  liam’s  mind?  it  all  began  with  levi’s  lackluster  training  regime,  constant  ribbing,  and  afternoon  start  times  to  nurse  his  hangover,  midnight  escapades,  or  whatever  the  hell  else  he  had  been  doing  instead  of  resting.  it’s  why  the  others  followed  suit  and  often  depicted  liam  as  staunch  or  too  rigid  in  his  beliefs.  that’s  been  his  entire  life,  the  constant  badgering  of  why  not  which  is  why  liam  double  downed  on  it  and  left  for  months  at  a  time  for  acting  gigs  where  he  could  be  treated  with  the  respect  that  an  oscar  winner  deserved.  “  i  can  and  i  did.  ”  in  a  very  matter-of-fact  tone,  liam  delivered  his  words  to  levi  who  at  least  had  the  decency  to  sit  up  when  he  was  being  berated  by  his  younger  brother. 

levi  loved  to  remind  liam  that  he  was  a  prude  —  standards  far  too  high  for  anyone  to  reach  and  that’s  why  no  one  could  ever  love  him.  a  quick  wince  was  all  levi  would  see  to  know  that  the  knife  made  purchase  and  stung  just  a  little  at  the  recoil.  fucking  asshole.  “  you  barely  take  me  seriously  as  is,  do  you  think  you’d  even  consider  what  i’d  want  if  i  just  asked?  ”  the  question  wasn’t  rhetorical  but  liam  knew  better  than  to  expect  levi  to  ever  turn  the  mirror  on  himself  for  some  introspection.  “  and  if  we’re  in  the  business  of  sharing  universal  truths,  you’re  getting  sloppy  in  training  and  it’s  very  obvious  you’re  distracted.  ”  looking  at  his  brother  while  standing,  his  eyes  narrowed  in  as  though  a  check  to  see  if  his  own  words  would  sting  levi  right  back. 

[mockcry]

[ @savioresque ] it  was  embarrassing,  truly,  how  much  of  an  oaf  and  imbecile  liam's  older  brother  could  be.  it  wasn't  his  fault  that  he  wasn't  born  without  much  common  sense  and  levi  was  lucky  he  had  enough  of  a  following  that  he  barely  had  to  use  his  brain.  sure,  they  had  staff  that  could  help  them  but  that  wasn't  the  point  that  liam  wanted  to  make. "  one  of  your  prostitutes  left  the  front  door  unlocked  again,  levi.  this  happens  again  and  i'm  forcing  you  to  do  your  little  sex escapades  outside  of  the  mansion.  am i making myself clear? "

[   logan lerman,  homosexual,  cismale  +  he/they,  shapeshifting   ]  liam  reagan wolfe  is  a  twenty-eight year old miracle superhero known better as mimic to the general public. they are most well-known for being a wolfe, but their most adoring fans love them more for their tongue-in-cheek & diligent personality while their critics have called them  inscrutable & smarmy. their most recent hero profile with the pageturner lauded their ability to shapeshift into other people, so they’re definitely my favorite out of the wolfe pack. god, i just hope they notice me on capebook soon, but they already have 100 million followers!

EVERYTHING ELSE IS TBD.
