Hi, can I ask why u use 🪯 symbol in all ur titles? Just curious by what its meant to signify? Or is it purely for looks? 🤔😅
Hi ^^
The title symbol? Oh, it’s purely for looks, it had a few more symbols on it which I took from a font page but deleted a few things off until I was left with that (ᵕ—ᴗ—)
It doesn’t have a specific meaning… does it? I didn’t look it up and didn’t think anything by it…
I looked it up to see if it has any meaning and it does. I forgot that an emoji exist on the phone that looks the same. I really didn’t know that it had one… I’m sorry.
So the ☬ symbol is actually the most significant and most recognisable religious symbol in Sikhism. The symbol is also known as Adi Shakti or Khanda.
It represents primal cosmic power, divine creativity, and spiritual protection.
The symbol is also widely used in Kundalini Yoga practices to represent primal, creative female energy and also in the Gaming & Social Media for its looks as it looks unique and edgy ig…
Since I know now, I’ll look into some other fonts and than change the titles than. Because as interesting as it is, none of the fics represent that religion of it and I don’t want it to be a misunderstanding of it even if it seems to be common to be used for other purposes.

Ciel Phantomhive x fem!reader
w/c: 1784
c/w: a little angst, hurt/comfort
A/N: I really love the black butler (╥ ᴗ ╥) but for some reason I have a hard time writing again... also no matter how often I do it, I'm still bad at tagging (ᵕ—ᴗ—) not sure if I'll ever learn it. Maybe it's also because I'm very much unsure what I'm even writing and to where it aactually belongs too... Anyway, please enjoy and thank you for the request! (and sorry for the wait...)
"Lizzy, go slower." (Y/n) said as she got dragged by her wrists by her best friend.
"Come on! Ciel is waiting for us!" Elizabeth, her best friend, didn't even stop for a breather and continued to drag her up the stairs towards the Phantomhive Manor. Their maid and butler followed after them, (Y/n) butler slowly followed while Paula quickly ran after them as they neared the front door of the manor.
Before one could even knock on the door they swung opened and the Phantomhive's butler came into view. Sebastian Michaelis greeted them with his usual smile and bowed. "Good morning, Ladies. Please do come in."
Without hesitation Lizzy skipped passed Sebastian, still dragging (Y/n) behind her. She quickly gave a greeting to Sebastian as she gets dragged through the door and tried to not stumble over her own feet. Sebastian chuckles as he waits for Paula and (B/n) to enter the manor before closing the door behind them.
"Ciel!!"
"Hello, Elizabeth. (Y/n)."
"Hello, Ciel." (Y/n) greeted Ciel calmly, at least as calm as she could after getting dragged towards and inside the Phantomhive manor. Meanwhile, Elizabeth placed her hands on her hips of her pink dress, while also finally letting go of her friends wrist, and pouted as she looked at her finacee.
"I told you to call me Lizzy!" Already used to her antics Ciel sighed tiredly, while (Y/n) had to surpress a laugh at the scene. Everytime (Y/n) would see this scene when she visited the Phantomhive manor with Lizzy. The difference between a hyper fiancee and a calm and serious counter part is always an interesting combination for every viewer. Even though, (Y/n) could understand those that aw her best friend as annoying. It wasn't every day that someone as bubbly and happy like Elizabeth Midford would grace your doorstep with her sunshine and drag you around the town without explanation. To Ciel and (Y/n) fortune, they were already very used to her and didn't mind it much apart from a few moments.
(Y/n) still couldn't believe what had happened the first time Elizabeth was throwing a party at the manor. She had arrived later than her friend had wanted but her family had an event planned before hand and she couldn't leave until a little later. She didn't think she would ever see Elizabeth feel so angry that she would destroy her fiancee's family ring and moments later see it fly out the window by the same someone who had treasured it because it was the last real thing he had from his family.
She could still see it vividly how she had to calm Elizabeth down and later on, on their way home, how such and action was inappropriate even if she wanted to simply help. She loved her friend, truly. But even as her best friend she loved and hated her some times. She knew that Elizabeth means well but sometimes her actions make things worse than they were in the beginning. She wished her best friend would act like she truly was, it's not like Ciel wouldn't like her true her but she feared it so much to not be like other noble girls that she threw her whole personality away just to fit into an image that didn't suit her. Though saying it didn't suit her would be a lie. It did suit her well but after growing up with her and knowing what she is capable of, (Y/n) had a hard time combining both images together sometimes.
Watching them going back and forth, Ciel tried, like many times to deny her and resist her tugging on him. She had a tendency to drag people around when she was exited, mostly she dragged them or her brother around. (Y/n), like always when she was here with Lizzy, tried to calm down any arguments and listened to their conversation but stayed quiet at the side. Her heart ached a little every time when she watched them close. She never knew when it started. The warmth. The heart rate that went up. Her daydreaming. Her crush.
Although, no matter what, she knew it could never come true or continue to manifest inside her. She knew it would never happen either. She knew she couldn't do it with a good conscious. Elizabeth Lizzy Midford is her best friend. She could never tell her best friend that she had harboured a crush on her fiancee for who knows how long. (Y/n) can't even recall when it started.
When they were younger? At one of the tea parties she got dragged to? Events she had to participate with her parents and saw Ciel standing on the other side of the ballroom?
She didn't know. She needn't know. All she needed to know was that these feelings she had needed to be buried deep. The best would be to make them disappear. Anything for them to not surface to the outside. Anything. Even if it hurt her to do so. But it would hurt her even more to see her friends dream be destroyed by her own best friend who she trusts with all her heart.
Arriving in the garden, it was decorated, not as extravagant like Lizzy would have done it but it was a beautiful sight. The flowers in the garden were in full bloom and the table was already filled with different pastries. Ciel had invited them to test a few new products they were thinking of selling. And since Lizzy loved to eat delicious desserts and tea parties and (Y/n) had good taste for what the general public loved, Ciel decided to invite them. Not only to test out the new desserts but also to spent some time with his cousin and friend.
Sitting down, Sebastian presented all the different pastries while (b/n) was filling their cups with tea. It was a very nice day out and they listened to Lizzy as she was gushing about the taste of sweets and the newest interest she had developed. Ciel and (Y/n) kept quiet for most of the time, only sometimes adding their own comments.
After a while, (Y/n) started to feel tired of only sitting and listening the both engaged couple and excused herself for a bit. She waved (b/n) away, telling him that she would be back shortly after freshing up and went to the bathroom.
Standing in front of the mirror, (Y/n) scolded herself, she promised herself that she wouldn't feel jealous or envious about Lizzy's relationship with Ciel. She told herself that she would be completly fine with just standing by their side. Just a friend that spent time with them, nothing more. But still, she couldn't help but feel her heart ache with sorrow. What was she suppose to do with her feelings. She never thought it would be so hard to crush her love for the only person she ever loved before, someone she knew so long and always felt like that he was the most lovable person there is. But in the end, she can't do nothing about it.
(Y/n) splached some water into her face and dried it off before stepping out of the bathroom, trying to gather her last composure.
"What's wrong?"
Slightly flinching, she looked up to see where the sudden voice came from and saw the Lord of the house leaning against the wall opposite to the bathroom, with his arms crossed as he stares at her, waiting for an answer.
"C-Ciel… What are you doing here?" (Y/n) stood up straighter as she stared back at her secret crush, hoping that her face wouldn't betray her as she felt warmth flood in.
"Waiting for you. You don't seem so well today. Is something wrong?" She was shocked when she heard the question, not because of the words he said but about the way his voice softened a little, like… like he cared about her more than he should or dared to admit.
"Nothing is wrong, Ciel. Don't worry about it."
"Really? Because I could have sworn that you looked dejected."
(Y/n) avoided his gaze, hands interlocked with each others as she squeezed her fingers more. She was nervous. She didn't know why. Was it because Ciel found out since she wasn't careful enough? Internally she was scolding herself again. She couldn't believe that he noticed. That wasn't something she wanted to happen.
"You know if it's about Lizzy you don't have to worry." Ciel suddenly said.
"What do you mean?" (Y/n) tried to stay composed as she heard that, not only was she shocked that he would say something like that but she was also very confused on what he meant by that.
"Lizzy will be getting another fiancee soon, so you don't need to look so dejected anymore." (Y/n) didn't know how to answer that and simply stood frozen as Ciel walked closer to her, taking one of her hands he lifted it up towards his lips and placed a soft kiss on the back of her hand. "I had asked my aunt for an annulement, of course not without reason."
"Why would you do something like that…." she mumbled, cheeks flushing as she felt his breath ghost over her hand.
"I have found someone more in my interest that I want to marry, that's why." He stepped even closer and pulled her closer to him. "If you haven't caught on yet, you are the one I want to marry instead of Elizabeth Midford, (Y/n) (L/n). I thought the message already came across at the balls I normally don't attend or the gifts that I had send over to your estate."
Shocked at the new information, (Y/n) thought back to the balls and different invitation she and her family had received, and now that she thinks back to it, Ciel wasn't the type of person who would attend unimportant events unless they were really necesarry.
"But… what about Lizzy?"
"Don't worry about it. She already chewed my ear off about it. Cried the first half and lectured me in the second half about how I should treat you." Ciel closed his eyes and sighed.
(Y/n) smiled slightly and finally relaxed, she still couldn't believe what was happening but for now she decided to feel happy and face anything else later. She placed her head against his shoulder and hugged him back as they stood in the hallway, enjoying the silence before they returned to the garden and continued to spent time with everyone else and sampled new sweets.

A/n: a little short than I wanted to but i guess I'll take it. (ᵕ—ᴗ—) @clonesdserveb3tter
"Hey, I'm fine Jack. Don't worry." Mac sighed as he leaned back in his hospital bed, once again gowned in hospital fashion. It wasn't every day that he had to be rushed into the ER but he really fished he could have avoided the hospital this one time. Today specifically.
"Yeah but I should have looked in that room first before you passed! I told you to stay behind me!" Jack was running his hand through his hair for the nth time that day. From worrying about him the moment he went unconscious, out of the ER and now.
"Hey now. Calm down Jack." Riley intervened but before they could continue their discussion, argument or whatever Riley was witnessing with Bozer right now, they heard hurried footsteps echoing from the hall and looked towards the door. Jack, out of reflects and what they had been through the past few days, reached to his gun. He tensed up even more when he heard angry shouting when a figure appeared at the door.
"Angus Macgyver! What do you mean you got shot?? AND I had to hear it from a med student?!" Completely furious (Y/n) steps through the door into the room fully dresses in her doctor clothes and closer to the bed, ready to strangle the trouble maker of a brother of hers. Chest heaving up and down as she came to a stop next to his bed and glared down at him.
Mac swallowed as he met her gaze for a second and swiftly looked to other side. Taking a quick glance at her as he felt the side of his bed dip down a little.
"H-Hey." he said hesitantly, pressing his lips into a thin line and trying to gather all his courage to look into his big sisters eyes. He rather face any kind of bombs than face his sister's current wrath, truly. He already had gotten multiple earfuls from her whenever Matty called her to inform about how his situation current is, mostly his medical situation. Well, seems like Matty wasn't the one who informed him this time.
"Don't 'hey' me. You nearly died."
"It missed."
"Yeah, missed you internal organ by a hair!" She gave him the only look he ever feared in his life, not even their grandfather's scoldings could keep up with it. The big sister glare was one he avoided at all cost. Sometimes he was even glad when he was in the Army since he didn't need to see it when he got hurt, even though his commanders would substitute for it instead.
They kept bickering, completely ignoring the others in the room. All the others just stared at them. Jack completely confused. Riley and Matty amused. Bozer. Well, he was beaming at them. Barely containing his excitement. It had been so long since he had seen her again. Probably since she went of to college.
Compared to the others, Matty was quite calm. She already knew that Mac had a sister. Background check was done the moment she took over. That and that she was a doctor were the only reasons she kept tabs on her and informed big sister Macgyver about Einstein's situation.
"Wow wow wow. Wait a second. You telling me Mac knows someone who is a doctor? Who's she? His secret girlfriend he never told us?"
"Sister." four people came to answer. Bozer, Maddie, Mac and (Y/n) answered before the two Macgyver's went back to their bickering like it was normal for them to get those question. Bozer decided to get closer and stands on the other side of the bed.
He slightly joined in and filled (Y/n) in on stuff Mac wasn't spilling. In the end, Mac cut Bozer off .
"Don't tell her that!"
"Whaaat! She's your sister. And to be honest, I fear her more than you. Well, apart that you can burn down my kitchen. BUT she could dissect me without making me die, man! That's scary! With her scalpel like whoos, stab and all that."
Both geniuses gave him a deadpan look before looking back to each other.

cw: slight macriley but also Riley x fem!reader, both only hinted at.
A/n: second Macgyver request done! Enjoy peeps. This one is about Mac's little sister who is visiting on her sem break and meets Jack and Riley for the first time. Even though she already knows who they are from Mac and Bozer talking about them and sending the occasional picture of them together. @clonesdserveb3tter
Bozer was in the kitchen making breakfast for everyone in the house. It was early in the morning and none of them had to go into work for once, well they hadn't been called in yet since crime had decided to be kind and take a day off. Instead of being heroes, Bozer finished placing the last pancake on the plate while Mac was fighting a different kind of problem.
Bozer had asked him to look at his bathroom lights, he had tried to find the problem when he woke up but gave up after he couldn't find what was wrong with it. And, since he has Mac as a housemate he thought he could fix his problem with all his geniuses. So, meanwhile, he was preparing the food for all three in the house, Mac was fixing his bathroom light.
You might be wondering who the third person was in the house. That answer would be quite simple. (Y/n), (Y/n) Macgyver, the little sister of his housemate and technically also his sister. Bozer had been by their sides for so long and even took care of her sometimes when Mac went to the Army. Today was her first day staying after a long time, both Mac and Bozer drove to the airport the day before and picked her up. It was already quite late when they all saw each other again, for that reason they immediately hit the hay when they arrived back at their house.
(Y/n) took the next flight over to LA when she was done for the day to spend most of her time with them. So when they arrived they soon found out that she had forgotten a few things to pack. Thankfully they weren't anything they hadn't had in their house.
One thing she had forgotten was her toothbrush and sleep wear. Both were pretty easy to solve. Bozer still had a new toothbrush in his bathroom and Mac lend her some of his clothes.
In the morning, (Y/n) stepped out of Mac's room and towards the kitchen when Bozer placed the pancakes on the kitchen isle. She wore one of Mac's old College T-Shirt and a pair of shorts. The shirt reached her mid-thigh and obscured the sight of her, well her big brothers, basketball shorts.
In comparison to her brother, (Y/n) was slightly smaller than him, at least when it came to clothing size, but that simple worked in her favour when she needed to lend stuff from him that she forgot. Bozer was already used to that. When they were little and had sleep overs, the grandfather of theirs didn't really bother with buying real sleep wear that they would outgrow in a couple of months. He spend the money later when they roughly finished their growth spurt and focused on buying good footwear instead. So (Y/n) always wore big shirts to bed since she was a kid and had no qualm in running around like that.
"Good morning, Boze."
"Good morning, (Y/n)." Bozer hummed as he twirled around in the kitchen and focused on the eggs he cracked into the pan.
"You been up very long I see."
"Yeah, I thought I'd prepare some breakfast for your first night here since… well, since forever. You really need to come over more often." he waved his spatula at her before turning back to the stove.
"Some? This is a feast, Boze." (Y/n) stared at the isle as she took a seat in one of the high chairs.
"That's what I him when I saw it." Mac entered the kitchen area as he wiped his hands on a towel before taking a seat next to his sister. "How did you sleep, sleepy head?"
"Like a baby. These seat in the air plane are hell. But that is the only way to get here faster. I'm not driving all the way here, that takes ages." She sacked down against her chair as she scanned all the different types of dishes.
"Understandable." Mac chuckled and took the plate Bozer was handing him.
"Thanks for the meal, Boze." Both Macgyver's exclaimed and picked their food, shortly after Bozer joined them too after taking his apron off and sat across from them on another high chair they had.
A comfortable air surrounded them as they ate their breakfast and held their conversation. At least until they heard a booming voice fill the space as the door opened. All three turned to the front door. Mac could see the door better than his sister as she sat behind him and had to pear around him to even see their guests.
Jack and Riley walk into the house like they always do, well like Jack always does, Riley would still prefer to knock or something but she got used to the barging in on Mac and Bozer and didn't comment on it anymore.
"Heyo, boys! What is for—." Jack froze with a step into the kitchen, making Riley nearly crash into his back. Avoiding bruising her nose against his back, she manoeuvred around him as she threw him a mix of annoyance and confusion until she scanned the room.
"What's going on Jack. Don't just…" She stops and doesn't only see Mac and Bozer but also a pretty and a little younger girl, that looked extremely similar to their boy genius, in one of the boys t shirts sitting with them at the kitchen island.
"Uuuh morning guys… Wh-"
"Hey, who's that?" Jack cut her off and immediately walked to Bozer and stood next to him as he looked over the girl who was eating with Mac next to her. (Y/n) simply resumed eating, shoving another fork full of pancakes pass her lips as Jack eyed her with distrust as he had never seen her before.
"Oh, yeah. That's (Y/n). She's on her semester break and came over for a visit."
"Okay… I get that but why is she here?" Jack stares at her, one hand slowly going to the back of his waist band as he raised a brow at her.
"Jack sigh that's my younger sister. she's here for a visit." Mac rolls his eyes before stopping his sister, lifting her arm as she nearly got peanut butter on her arm and on his shirt she borrowed.
Swallowing what she was chewing she waved and smiled "Hi, Jack. Nice to meet you Riley." She turned to the woman, that had accepted the change of setting faster than Jack, and returned to her plate, still keeping some of her focus on the new people in the house.
Riley and Jack exchanged a quick glance before the younger one turned back to the new blond head in their group, leaning against the kitchen isle next to Mac.
"Hey. So semester break. What are you studying?"——
The girls went into an easy conversation over him while Jack started to whisper to Bozer, which makes Mac, once again, roll his eyes as he can clearly hear what he was talking about to Bozer.
After a while, (Y/n) was done eating and excused herself. She walked into Mac's room to change her clothes. Jack and Riley followed her figure until it disappeared behind the door. Seconds later Jack broke the silence.
"Since when do you have a sister? And why didn't I know about that?" Jack send Mac and hurt look, if he really meant it or not, no one knows.
"Since when do you have a hot sister?" Riley says as she keeps staring at the door.
Mac's mouth drops even further when he set to answer Jack and stares at Riley in disbelief. "Riley!" he whisper shouts. Riley simply looks over her shoulder and shrugs, taking a piece from the fruit bowl and popping it in her mouth.
"What? It's true." Her words were slightly muffled by the fruit in her mouth as she meets Mac's stare and send him a teasing smirk. Leaning in closer she whispers "Jealous?" Meanwhile, Jack and Bozer were distracted as Jack started eating too and Bozer sat disgusted as Jack talked his ear off with a mouth full of food.
______________
Jack and Riley stayed until it was dark out, all five of them on the balcony and talked around the campfire. Riley and (Y/n) hit it off pretty well and leaned in further into each other as they talked and whispered. The boys could hear muffled laughter as they threw glances at them.
All of them had an amazing time and lead the two out the door. Well, Bozer had an amazing time until he watched flabbergasted at the two girls. More specifically at the phone Riley was holding and typing on.
"Hold Hold on! You giving your number??"
Riley looked up and gave him a confused look "Yeah…"
"Your whole number?!"
"Yes, Bozer."
"Whaaaaaaa! I had to earn each number and little Mac gets it immediately?!"
Riley simply smirked before handing the phone back and winked. Jack and Riley left in his car and the three waited for them to drive away.
(Y/n) stared at her phone when the car drove away and a slow smile spread across her face, biting her inner, bottom lip as a slight blush flushed her ears.
Summary: while Riley might think she´s good at hiding things, Ellie is a lot better at seeing through people.
a.n: This is a drabble I wrote for an oc of mine, Ellie MacGyver! She´s Mac´s big sister and I might just write a lot more about her lol. This is honestly just for me as a place to post these fics/drabbles/one-shots/whatever you wanna call it. But if anybody else wants to read the you´re more than welcome to! Fair warning, I am in no means someone who tends to write (if you don´t count lab reports-) and english isn´t my first language, so please excuse any mistakes!
content warnings: swearing, mentions of alcohol, mentions of a physical fight (kinda normal MycGyver stuff), mentions of past fights/issues, Riley and Mac are in love yet absolutely oblivious, Ellie calls Mac "firefly" and variations of the nickname, probaly a millions grammar mistakes + plus incorrect uses of em dashes (fuck ai I´m learning that shit via fanfiction), the pov changes so often you´ll get dizzy lol
Now that the sky above them darkened, the group seemed to calm down as well. They were set around the fire, drinking beer and trying to distract themselves of the things they see, the darkness they face, to allow others to stay in the light.
Ellie felt the warmth of the fire on her face and for the first time in years, she knew that she didn´t need to be on edge. Her brother sat to her right, taking a sip of his beer before laughing at something Bozer said. She still couldn´t believe this, her brothers were finally next to her again, though it would take some more time to remember that the same boys who used to fuss over having to eat their vegetables are the same grown men now drinking beer with her.
Between her boys sat Riley, hair tied back into what she´s learning is her signature bun, laughing along while subconsciously leaning further back into Angus. The younger woman´s body seemed to almost search for the boy´s warmth, her hand splayed right next to his – oh
the profiler quickly blinked, looking over at Bozer, trying not to smile too wide. The girl had a crush, no by the way she´d been acting that word seems to small, on her baby brother. And by the way his eyes had been flickering to hers every time the girl laughed, Ellie´d say that those feelings were reciprocated. A hand on her forearm made her look over at her lightning bug, guarded yet concerned eyes looking back at her. She knew he still didn´t fully trust her, and while she understood it completely, even told him to be as angry at her as he needed to be, it did not mean that it hurt any less.
“You okay Bir- Ellie?” he almost used that damned nickname and she almost wanted to cry, again, because of it. “You were kinda zoned out there”. There was en edge of suspicion is his voice, the way he dragged his d´s gave him away. Did he think she would leave him? Again?
“Yeah sorry, that one lackey got me better than I thought” she replied with what she hoped still resembled a smile.
It wasn´t a lie, she once promised that she would never lie to him, that guy really did get her harder than the spy had first thought. But the blonde woman was used to to pain like this, she didn´t want it to ruin the evening. Bug seemed to have other plans though. His eyes sharpened before he placed his beer down, scooting closer and holding her face in his hands. Carefully he moved her head, seemingly looking for blood, gigantic bumps, or a sign that says `right here is where that asshole threw your big sister against a wooden crate`. When he did not find any of those things, he carefully started to comb his hands through her hair. The older of the two couldn´t help but chuckle.
“You know, usually I was the one checking you two for concussions after you did something stupid, again” both boys chuckled, knowing very well what she meant, how many times they had been reprimanded by her before being pulled into a hug.
“Yeah well this time I wasn´t the one being thrown around like a rag doll” he tried to keep the smile on his face when he said it, he really did. But he´d just gotten his sister back, he didn´t want to lose her again, regardless of how angry he still might be. Said sister´s mouth opened and closed, trying to hide a wince when he touched a small bump on the back of her head. Immediately pulling his fingers away from the wound, he was about to apologise when she waved him off. “It´s okay bug” she whispered, almost as if she could see into his mind. Honestly, he still wasn´t sure whether she could actually read minds.
Both of her hands slowly pulled his from her face, choosing to keep the in her lap instead, thumb drawing circles overs his. “I´ll ice and then I´ll be fine bug” she tried to convey to him how much she actually meant that, not just about the bump on her head. Her eyes flickered between his once more before settling on Riley´s who had been watching them the entire time.
“Could you show me where the ice is?” she asked the girl with a soft smile “plus we might as well get some more snacks”. Riley was confused, yet intrigued by the choice of Ellie´s companion, judging by the angle of her head and the subtle way her breathing changed.
Yet the girl stood up and waited for the blonde to do the same. Once the she reached Riley, the two walked into the kitchen. Ellie could feel her brothers´ eyes on them until they turned a corner. They were probably already thinking about how they could eavesdrop, though she´d hoped that they´d learned their lesson the last time the two tried that trick. Once in the kitchen, she thanked the brunette for the icepack before holding it against the back of her head.
“So,” she turned to face Riley “You´re in love with my brother, hm?”. The shocked, yet terrified widening of her eyes, plus the way she turned her head, a way one may try to hide a flustered expression, told her she was dead centre. And by the way Riley was still trying to get more than stammered what´s and no´s out, it seemed that these feelings have been there for quite a while.
Riley was panicking. The woman in front of her just figured out the one thing she´d been trying to tell herself wasn´t real. She didn´t know what to do, what to say to convince the so called ‘human lie detector’ that she was in fact not absolutely in love with Mac. Oh god, did he know? Had she been that obvious the entire time? What if-
“Riley, kid, it´s okay” Ellie´s voice seemed to pull her back out of wherever Riley´s mind just went. A quick wink seemed made the younger let out a small chuckle. “Am i really that obvious?” “Given how absolutely dense my little brother can be, I´d say you could do a lot more than stare at him and he still wouldn´t realise it”. Ellie tried to hold her giggles in, she really did. But something as normal as this seemed so surreal after the day they just had.
Riley only groaned in response. “I know! I mean I don´t want him to know, but at the same time I sometimes feel like I could tell him how I feel and he´d still think I mean it platonically”. The blonde just shook her head, her grin making way to a soft smile, one that she only seemed to wear when talking to and about her bug.
“Why do you not want him to know dear?” Riley was starting to learn that the woman in front of her was quite fond of nicknames for the people she seemed to care about. She didn´t want to disappoint herself by hoping Ellie actually sees are as anything other than her little brother´s colleague, who just happens to be head over heels for said brother. Oh how wrong she was.
“I might not have been around for the last few years, but i know people and I know him. And he doesn´t look at just anyone the way he looks at you” Ellie didn´t wait for Riley to process her words before she grabbed the mini pretzels, and with one last look towards the now overly flustered girl, walked back out to her boys.

c/w: Maddie's glare
A/n: Soooo, I got some Macgyver (2016) requests. (˶ᵔ ᵕ ᵔ˶) slowly working on them. I received this request from @clonesdserveb3tter also the pancake idea too. have fun!
"Let me get to the point." Maddie threw at Jack to stop him from speaking. "The terrorist group had been causing trouble for some time now, selling illegal weapons and drugs as well as dabbling into human trafficking. Your job, is to stop their business and get their leader so we can dismantle it from the inside."
Riley typed away on her laptop as she threw all the images she collected on the big screen in the war room. "Mac, Jack and Riley, you are going on the field and infiltrate." Bozer was about to dance of happiness, thinking he could hide in his lab and continue the prosthetics until Maddie continued "Bozer you are staying here with me in the war room."
"Whaaa— Maddie I have— Yes, of course." He shrunk down and saluted at her glare and gave the three thumbs up as they cleared the room. "Good luck guys!"
"Don't worry, Boze. At least you won't be drenched through your shirt." Jack clapped him on the back as Riley and Mac walked pass him.
"Yeah and don't have to smell the stench either." Riley snarked as Mac tried to swallow a laugh.
"Yeah… Hey!" Catching on what Riley meant he immediately followed after them. "I don't— It's not that bad, is it?" Mac simply shook his head and patted his shoulder.
"Come on."
_____________
"Fuck!" Jack cursed as he peaked out from their hideout before ducking back down as it rained bullets on them.
"I got you guys backup. Foxglove will join you in 10." Maddie stated as Bozer and her stared at the satellite map in the war room.
"What? No need Maddie. We got this." Jack exclaimed as Mac worked on some scraps and Riley ran back to them while keeping low.
"Oh yeah. Totally. If you mean nearly becoming swiz cheese, sure. Totally got it" Riley threw him a look before sliding further down against the crates as a bullet nearly cut her ear.
"Come on. We got—"
"You don't got this, Jack. Now either you want to shorten your life span or not. Wait for Foxglove until they arrive and than continue the mission with them." Maddie lectured.
It was quiet, the only thing that sounded through their ears was the metal going at the speed of 1700 mph hitting crate boxes made out of wood as no one spoke.
"…Finished."
"What did you finish, Mac?" Riley asked hesitantly, wanting to know what he made out of the material he made her gather as they were in line of fire.
"A stun grenade." He said bluntly, pressing himself against the wood and glancing over the surface, checking the room a threw it over and let it roll towards the terrorists feet as.
Riley and Jack had exchanged a stunned look before immediately covering themselves. The explosion rang a little in their ears but they're safe for the most part and ran out of their hiding and tying them up. Their disorientation came to their advantage.
Swiftly, they rushed to the next room. Jack pushed Mac back before he could even reach the door and leaned against the wall next to it. Pulling out his gun, he reached over and pulled the door open, clearing the room. Unfortunately, as empty as the room was, Jack stepped on a trip wire that was secured at the bottom of the door, a siren sounding through the whole building.
"Seriously." Mac and Riley deadpanned.
"What?! How am I supposed to know they would use fishing wire—" Jack protested.
"Oh, yes. The easiest trick in the books fools the ex delta soldier Jack Dalton." An amused voice spoke up next to them.
Shocked, all three turned around, Jack raised his gun, pointing against the figures chest, Riley raised her laptop out of reflex and Mac stepped back. Everyone froze. Well not everyone. (Y/n) simply chuckled as she let her eyes skim over them. "Foxglove, at your service." She mock bowed after pushing Jacks gun away.
Still in shock, Mac was the first one to snap out of it. "W-What are you doing here?! Aren't you suppose to be writing your phd thesis right now?!" Mac whisper shouts at her pushing Jack away as he moved closer to her.
"I have." She says way to calmly. "So, a think tank, huh?" She sends him a look, brow raised and an amused smile painted on her lips. Not waiting for an explaination, she shook her head and turned around, focusing back on the mission on hand.
Mac followed quickly "We will talk about this later." keeping quiet both of them continued further into the room, siren sounds already snuffed out and shouts of orders and footsteps filled the halls. Jack was about to intervene as he boiled with curiosity, wanting to know who that was but before he could asked, Bozer's voice cut in.
Bozer was doing happy dances in the war room "Hell Yeah! She's back!" Maddie stared him down, immediately freezing he stops and whispers an apology.
"Glad to hear you too, Boze." (Y/n) chuckled as they went to hide behind some machines, waiting for a group of armed men to pass.
"Now, Jack." Maddie spoke up. "That's Foxglove, Mac's sister. Question her later. Focus. Now." Jack grumbled but nodded.
________________
In the end, The group decided to split up to cover more ground and find the leader. Mac and Jack went to the upper floors. Meanwhile, (Y/n) went into the basement with Riley, who was hugging her laptop tight to her chest. Their job was to find the pc every purchase of the terrorist group's clientele was made. Arriving, (Y/n) swept through the room as Riley took a seat and plugged her laptop into it.
"Shit." She cursed.
"What's wrong?" (Y/n) glanced towards her before her eyebrows frowned. Speed walking over she pulled the chair Riley was sitting on back, away from the table and stared at the red screen with white numbers. A ticking filled the quiet, dusty room.
Turning to the hardware, (Y/n) pulled out her Swiss knife and slowly pulled the loose piece of metal off. Freeing the space both women stared at the mechanics before them.
"Fuck…" Riley squeezed her eyes shut and stood up.
The mission, who they thought would be a simply capturing turned out to include a bomb in the description. Normally Mac would dismantle it but since they split up to cover more ground… Riley kept pacing for a bit before stopping, turning to (Y/n) she stared biting her lip.
"What wrong, Riley?" Mac asks through their coms.
"A bomb." Riley said breathlessly, Jack starts to curse on the other end of her com. (Y/n) leaned back, taking a good look all around the whole structure, making sure she got everything that was connected to it before looking over her shoulder, making sure Riley was still there and alright.
"Hmm. You have a bobby pin?"
"Huh? Uh… yeah." She pulls one out of her hair and steps aside. She watches as the reader sticks it between two plates and than pull out an army knife and cutting the wire. It was as if she was seeing Mac disarming a bomb.
"O-okay. That is officially a little creepy." It gave her a shudder, a cold shudder that ran down her back, at how easy it seems to disarm such a scary instrument of death.
"What's wrong?" Maddie asks.
"It's as if I'm seeing two macs…"
"What do you mean?"
Jack and Mac came running into the room as Jack asks. "She just disarmed the bomb with a bobby pin."
"Well, I'm obviously the prettier one." (Y/n) said cheekily as she looked around at the bomb to ensure that it was disarmed after throwing a wink towards the hacker.
Mac said nothing and rolled his eyes walking over to his twins side and looked at the wires before looking around the room for anything else.
"What are you talking about, I'm literally older." the taller one of the two seemed quite offended by such idea.
"Doesn't make you prettier. It's like pancakes. The first one always turns out kinda weird but it makes the second one better." The two blonds stared at each other, teasing and mischief hiding in their eyes. Mac scoffs going back to work. (Y/n) sticks out her tongue in response.
______________________
Finishing up the mission, all four of them barely made it out unscathed. They avoided another rain of bullets before they reached the leader and detained him.
Returning to Phoenix gave the group a time to relax until Bozer came running and jumped (Y/n). She simply sighed and let him jump around with her in his arms, overjoyed in seeing her again. Mac and the others chuckled at the scene and let the tension leave their muscles. Maddie joined them and told them that they needed to debrief.
An hour later, they were sitting together on Mac's porch and drinking. Mac handed over the bottles in his hands and sat down next to his sister. "So, your thesis."
"Finished and handed over." She took a sip before giving him a meaningful gaze "Think Tank? Really."
"What? We do think tank stuff."
"Sure…"
"You don't believe me."
"I never do."
Jack, Riley, Bozer and Maddie watched as the two blonds bantered with each other before they stopped and smirked.
black butler x reader ✪ ω ✪ they're all platonic tho
the reader is a girl btw (first time👏) the reader is a maid for ciel when he was young. the reader is a mermaid, she met his mother when she was young and captivated by her so she became her maid until she got married and had ciel
when ciel disappeared, she tried to find him and when she did, she was already late. she came back to 'ciel' and served him. she knows about what happened but ciel is the only one who doesn't know and the demon that's serving under him since she can smell him and he knows about her as well. the only reason why she tolerated him was because of ciel and the same goes for him.
when the first week ciel came back, sebastian made him food but ciel threw the food and told him to redo it again. the reader came with tea for ciel. she asked if she should help him but ciel said no. when night came, ciel went to sleep but nightmare cling to him. when he woke up, the reader was beside him, trying to comfort him but he didn't want her to touch him. the reader looked at him then nodded, asked if he wanted something to drink but ciel refused. she then asked if she could stay here and ciel just give her a slight nod.
the room was quiet until the reader started humming a song. ciel stared at her, he felt his eyes heavy until he fell asleep. the reader noticed that and tucked him in
just want something wholesome with ciel. bro don't deserve this 🙏🙏 god i want to hug him

the request in question for melodic comfort~
thought i would show what the request was, it has a little more info for the actual one shot I wrote and didn't add. Where (Y/n) joins the Phantomhive mansion because of Rachel hehe. I wanted to add it at first but I thought it would disturb the flow of the story and I didn't know where to insert that information (ᵕ—ᴗ—)
