Much to no ones surprise the fall of 2021 caused a lot of changing dynamics between Scarlett and Sebastian. It was a lot of back and forth, push and pull, the playing around to avoid anyone’s feelings from getting crushed under foot. It wasn’t until a pregnancy scare in January of 2020 caused them to get their heads out of the asses. Realizing they were adults and they didn’t need to keep avoiding what they both wanted. Leaving Bayview after the pregnancy scare was what they needed, when they realized how much they wanted that. It also gave them the excuse to pack up both of their places and buy quite the dream home in New York City. Both Scarlett and Sebastian were thriving to be around their family and friends they had left behind in the city. Once Rosie finished school that year Sebastian, Scarlett and Rosie packed up and headed out to travel the world. Bringing them to his homeland / birth place in Romanian, showing his culture and heritage, and getting lost in true wanderlust. They had to share time with Rosie with her dad who luckily was in Paris so they were never far from. The Summer of 2022 Sebastian finally got up the courage, bought a ring, and proposed to Scarlett. Thankfully she didn’t faint like he thought she was going to and instead accepted the ring. By the end of summer they were married surrounded by a small intimate group of friends and family in Santorini, Greece. In the ceremony he made a lifelong commitment not only to Scarlett but to Rosie giving her own special moment and promise to be the best step-dad she could ever hope for. He also absolutely spilled the beans on them hooking up in between filming on set back in the day — though was anyone really surprised? Much to their surprise while honeymooning and traveling to different places, they found out that Scarlett was already pregnant. They had been eager to start their family since the moment they realized she hadn’t been pregnant back in the winter. Over the moon turned into full panic when Sebastian was given the news there wasn’t one Stan but two on the way, Scarlett carrying twins. The news was surprising but given Scarlett was a twin herself, it wasn’t so weird in his mind. Spring 2023 brought Camelia and Oakley ( girl and boy ) into their lives. While they did talk about adding more kids to the family it just never panned out, plus they had twins that were both a little bit of Scarlett and a little bit of Sebastian, their hands were full. They moved back to New York where they reside but he does make time to pop into Bayview to visit old friends. For the most part these days Sebastian is just a dad. He got to do some amazing project in the last few years but when his Marvel contract came to an end and it was Bucky’s time to go, he discussed with Scarlett taking a step back and enjoying their life together. They had given so much to the public eye he wanted to just be them. With that he quietly retired from acting and now his great job title is the one he knew he wanted but didn’t think would pan out: Dad.

I think so! I remember seeing the feature while I was browsing through Amazon and was buying myself one of the Echos. Apparently, Alexa can preheat the oven, start the coffee- I mean, it’s crazy. Can’t wait to see how much she’s able to do in a few years. Pretty much! I have nothing against gin, but it’s not my go-to. Is gin your mom’s favorite? I am! I survived my first night, and now I’m looking forward to my first cup of coffee to start off the day. What about yourself? 

What would we do without it now. Not that I have any of that in my house but I’m debating it now knowing that I can have Alexa do anything. Though it’s both exciting to think of what Alex will be able to do, but also terrifying all at the same time. Gin is one of my mom’s top favorites. Definitely top two. I’ve been enjoying the last few days soaking up the sun before the Getaway closes. 

[stanhqs]

alyciiajasmin​:

That’s why you need to snack in between so you don’t get hangry. Doesn’t Alexa provide that feature now? I know that there’s a way that you can connect Alexa to pretty much everything, but I’m not sure how I feel about that. I do love the idea of the oven preheating by the time I need to cook. Ooh, all great choices! Don’t think that I’ve had enough gin, though. I sure am! Got lucky enough to be partnered with Jake so I try and annoy him as much as I can while we’re out here. How are you enjoying your new roomies? 

Alexa provides a snack in between preheating the oven? I didn’t know that -- or did you mean that Alexa can preheat the oven now? Which that wouldn’t surprise me. Isn’t there something for everyone that can hook up to Alexa if it’s newer technology? Gin is one of those things that I don’t think most people lean into if there’s other options. It’s just something I grew an appreciation of because of my mom. The trip was good, and my roomies definitely kept me busy. Are you going to be tempting it again with the camping this weekend? 

[stanhqs]

butlergerry​:

Although isn’t that tempting? Not the living in fear bit, that’s awful, I’m with you on that. But the curling up in bed and sleeping 99% of the day. Maybe… 98%, I’ll save 1% of the day for using the restroom, and the other 1% for eating, of course. No, of course, because then they would have to take you out if you ended up saying the wrong thing, right? Isn’t that how it goes? So it’s smart that they make you watch it with everyone else if they’re that protective! But I understand that, too, especially because we see things that others don’t when we’re watching ourselves, right? I know that’s how I feel. I might be! But you have to keep my secret, don’t let anyone else know.

Anyone who says they don’t have days where it’s tempting to just stay in bed all day and do nothing -- I don’t believe em, or trust them. Nope, not at all. Who doesn’t like having that ability to just be lazy as fuck and do nothing. It’s not a life I would want to live all the time, given I’m booked through mid next year with filming or well at the very least mid next year... Though sometimes it’s nice to just do what we want, when we want. There’s just something about having to watch yourself -- at least for myself, I pick apart everything I could have done differently. Don’t worry, man, secret is safe with me! Won’t go disappoint ya. 

[stanhqs]

henryccvill​:

You’re right. I didn’t think about it before but that’s true. I mean, it makes sense, with all the things they have now library isn’t exactly the first place they check when they’re looking for something. They didn’t disappoint at all! It felt nice to be outdoors all the time and to have all those fun activities to do. I had a great time. Did you enjoy it?

No, I mean if we needed to, we could probably figure it out. Or -- well you could probably figure it out and I could bug you to help me figure it out afterwards! Most kids I don’t even know if they teach them that stuff anymore! Yeah was a really good time I’m starting to enjoy the outdoors more and more as time goes on. Though I am skeptical about this upcoming camping trip this weekend. Are you going? 

[stanhqs]

ajdarkfae​:

No, it’s kind of like French toast. Funnel cake is absolutely amazing though and I’d eat if evey day but my body would hate me. As long as your as good swimmer you’ll be fine. This is the exact reason I put all the kids in swimming lessons when they were little. Have an absolutely brilliant time though.

Oh. I’ve never had that then, but if it’s like French toast it must be delicious. No, funnel cake probably isn’t an every day food. Mean you could but think like you said, everyone might not love that. Thankfully we all came back unscathed. Now we’re just gearing up for this camping trip that’s happening. Which I’m a little more skeptical about since it’s more roughing it. 

[stanhqs]

zaynsalamb​:

right? i mean even when i didn’t eat much i liked to be treated to food. thats’ why my mama forced me to move back home for a bit and eat myself better. it was good. real italian is good. just not the fake ones, or that they try too hard to do things.. that won’t work. i can be picky. oh that sounds like fun! did you see any nice views?

Everyone likes to be treated to food, even if they say they don’t or shouldn’t. Food is the universal pleaser. Though I’m glad your mom wanted you to work on your health and get that all squared away. Real Italian food is amazing, never disappoints. Saw lots of nice views but I’m pretty happy to be back in my own bed at the moment. 

[stanhqs]

freddycxrter​:

for sure. i think i’m just trying to challenge myself a bit more now, knowing i can do it and all. because i know i only like… struggle with it for no reasons at all and it only ruins things for myself. shouldn’t be like that. thanks for grabbing a drink with me dude, it meant a lot. nice catching up.

challenging yourself is a good way to start. Pushing yourself outside of your boundaries. We all have to do that sometimes but doesn’t mean that it’s easy. So did you enjoy the trip? Get up to anything else fun or just kind of relaxed the rest of the time? Have to admit I’m happy to be back in my normal bed for a little bit. 

[stanhqs]

ajdarkfae​:

Yes burning things down would be a big damper on time away. So good plan on trying not to burn things. Speaking of when I was at uni my friend and I through it would be a great idea to make fried bread in our house and….let’s just say I’ll never again eat fries bread. Was rather amusing though to see the Dean freak out. I’m glad your having a good time though but please wear a life jacket if you do get to go kayaking. Sorry, mom brain kicking in.

Thankfully we’ve avoided burning things down. A few more days and we can call it a full on success. Fried bread like funnel cake? Because if that’s the case, you don’t have to! Have it at a carnival, go down to the pier and let them do the frying for you! Less chance of fire. Know there’s some river adventures tomorrow, but don’t worry we’ll be safe. Thankfully I’m a decent swimmer too and think with general water safety we’ll be okay.

a bandit like me, eyes full of stars | scarlett & sebastian.

His agreement without question was music to her ears — a sour note thrown in at the mention of Lizzie’s comments that had been littered across the week, a sharp key in whatever melody she and Sebastian were composed of that conveniently had all the pages ripped out of it. Sure, they had their history, but it didn’t strap down so much weight onto their shoulders that every time they stepped back into those waters it plummeted them to the bottom to drown. It wasn’t as though she could be blamed for constantly flirting with disaster. It came written in her DNA. “Oh, please,” she scoffed. “Lizzie’s not even in our camp, it’s not like she’s got a bell strapped to me that rings every time I take off an article of clothing. What she doesn’t know won’t hurt her. Besides, not like anyone’s gonna see. Or care. That’s what my underwear’s for.” One of her eyebrows lifted in question as one of her hands brushed against his, giving it a small tug as she began to step backwards over the threshold of his room, headed towards the main entrance of their cabin. “Aren’t you the same man who went streaking through downtown after Davey Jones? Thought that woulda killed your shame.” Scarlett reached down to the hem of her shirt and tugged at it, lifting it up off of her head and tossing it in the doorframe that led to her room. “Live a little.” She coupled her goading with a brilliant smile, brimming with the promise of the very trouble she’d been in search of, dragging him straight down the path alongside her.

There was the tiny part of his brain that figured, what trouble could they really get up to while exploring a river? While they had had their years of getting up to untold amounts of trouble, really, aside from the getting swept away to never be seen again, his mind scanned his brain for what could possibly go wrong. Little bells told him that they could definitely find trouble but his mind refused to acknowledge such things. “Do you think I would put it past Lizzie to have some fucking radar that knows when you start stripping off your clothes? If she comes busting in here I’m blaming you.” The coy smirk that appeared on his lips, because did he really care? No, but it seemed to be an endless push and pull between all three of them, but the dynamic made for a good time. No matter how many times they playfully complained there was never an issue -- thus far. Deciding to play it cautious to start he slipped on a pair of boxer briefs under his towel before tossing it onto one of the chairs, “Well I mean I think my shame was killed a long time before Davey Jones and you lost your rights to that when you posted about it.” Sebastian quipped at the blonde, pointing at her slightly as if to say she knew what she was doing. His eyes scanned her figure as her shirt pulled up over her head, groaning inwardly, “You know sometimes I think you enjoy mixing the words having a little fun / trouble with torture. I’m getting you a dictionary for your birthday.” The Romanian muttered but followed her nonetheless, padding his bare feet across the floor. It took only a few strides of his longer legs to reach Scarlett, fingers dipping along the waistband of her shorts, “Need help? Would hate to not be a team player in this trouble you’re looking for.”

when i taste tequila | sebastian & candice

Confidence and her ‘no worries’ attitude – the two driving forces behind Candice’s self-proclaimed ‘hot girl summer.’ She couldn’t remember the last time she’d felt so at peace, or relaxed, and this time in Montana, breathing in the scent of pine and wildflowers, was exactly what the doctor ordered. And so was enjoying the company she was fortunate to be surrounded by; finding herself a little ways from her tent, amongst the dimly lit space of the resort’s luxury cocktail bar, she knew exactly how tonight would go. Or so, that had been how most of her evenings were unfolding lately, with a solo glass of wine, or gin & tonic, before disappearing back to her tent. 

Her sun-kissed skin, illuminated beneath the orange-yellow lights, one leg hooked over the other, darkened hues traveling Tank with a small smile of acknowledgment. From the ATV tour to the nature trails, she was enjoying the simple bliss that came with being out in nature. But something she enjoyed more? A good drink, after a long day. She was walking cliché – a girl, alone at the bar. Only difference, she wasn’t waiting for some man to come and whisk her off her feet. Well, that was, until she spotted Sebastian. Perhaps she’d be able to keep her word, and let him in on her summer plans; when he’d settled into a booth, she slipped in across from him, a teasing expression on her face. “What’s a guy like you doin’ in a place like this?” A beat, as she gave a little shake of her head, “Care for a drink?” @stanhqs​

Montana was proving to be full of surprises, for several reasons, a few that Sebastian was gently pressing to the back of his mind in the moment. Mainly though it was proving that you really shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, the place Bayview had whisked them off to was beyond anything the Romanian man had seen before, and he had had the luxury of seeing a lot of beautiful places in his life. The man had to admit, he was never one for a bunch of outdoor things, growing up in New York City his mother had very much made him a city boy, something he didn’t find fault in. Though while there he was attempting to explore and do more than he would have normally done. Hiking had proven one of his favorite things, aside from his night time exploration of the river behind his luxury tent that he had done the night before. Tonight, Lizzie and Scarlett were demanding much needed girls wine night, and while part of him wanted to be a fly on the wall to hear what they truly gossiped about, he dressed in a set of dark denim jeans, a simple tee shirt and tugged his brown leather jacket on over his shoulders before finding solace in a place he understood -- a bar. 

Settling into one of the dark corner booths, he shucked off his jacket moving to set his elbows on the table -- after all, manners didn’t exactly count in the second when he was by himself, his toned arms more lit in the dimly glowing light of the overhead light that swung gently. There was a quirk of a brow as a woman slid in opposite of him, his bright blue orbs taking a second to adjust and settle on who exactly it was. Taking in her face shape before the image clicked of Candice now sitting opposite of him. A chuckle rose to his throat, “Pretty sure a place like this is made for a guy like me.” Sebastian retorted before leaning back some. “Does that mean you’re buying?” Questioning when she asked if he cared for a drink.

Scarlett glanced over him quickly, the towel draped around his waist a sufficient answer as to why the tent had felt as though it belonged to her and the silence. After the early morning and the hike, the rest of the day had languidly slipped by and congealed into a sort of peaceful nothingness, hours slinking by with no real conception of their passing. Now, though, energy back to buzzing through her veins, finding somewhere to channel it was the current dilemma. She allowed his words to wash over her, Scarlett rifling through ideas in her brain as to what they could get up to that didn’t involve breaking the campground’s rules, a potential loss of limb, or surrounding herself with other company. They hadn’t spent much time together, just the two of them, since their arrival, and the balm for her need to find an adventure of sorts also involved him being her only company for the evening. “Oh, I don’t know,” she mused playfully, blonde hair draping down her shoulder as she tipped her head to the side. Her eyebrows shifted upwards in suggestion. “I haven’t done much in the water since we got here; it’s a nice night out, we’ve got a river in our backyard… better off late than never, right?” Her smile followed him through the room. 

When Sebastian and Scarlett got together trouble was sure to follow, only you never exactly knew what kind of trouble that was. The good kind, or the bad kind were liable to follow the pair. Sometimes a mix of both depending on what they allowed themselves to fall victim too. The balance of Lizzie being there was they were forced to have to behave themselves, the fellow co-worker and friend continually giving weird comments of keeping hands where she could see them at all time. Though Sebastian wasn’t exactly a boorish, brainless, -- man, he was aware that Scarlett and him had history. Much to which he was sure the younger woman was privy to if Scarlett ever determined girl talk was necessary, which... didn’t all women do that? At the mention of exploring the river that was just behind the extravagant tent they were housed in, his own eyebrows shot up. It was night, which did bring a little more excitement, and there was no warnings that it was dangerous at night to explore the river. Though maybe that was common sense, or maybe it was perfectly fine. Either way was he going to turn it down, “Alright then, a night swim.” Sebastian quipped brushing a lock of her blonde hair out of her face. “Better go get your swimsuit on, Lizzie catches you tip toeing out of her naked she’ll tie you up the rest of the trip.” He grinned.

zaynsalamb​:

hey i mean, who doesn’t like to get treated to food? that’s how misha got me. food is what you fall for, or something. chicken in every way is real good. my weakness. fried chicken? i’m lost forever in that bucket. ah no, we missed out on the hike. i don’t… i don’t do well with mornings. we went to the spa instead. how about you?

Don’t think I’ve met a person yet that doesn’t love to get treated to food. If they don’t they either have a problem or never have been around really good food. Fried chicken is pretty good, at least out here it’s proving to be some of the best I’ve had. Now if we’re talking the best, nothing is quite as good as real Italian meals if someone is trying to win someone over. I was out hiking, yeah. Enjoy getting out and burning some pent up energy before taking an evening to hang out with Scarlett. 

[stanhqs]

freddycxrter​:

easier said than done sometimes, but yeah i feel you. i am really trying to stop worrying because it honestly doesn’t help but like… i feel i have a bit trouble just letting go sometimes. it’s like, people don’t have time to focus on you but still you think they will. well how about tonight then? we can find some cool place just, chill and all.

It is, but it’s something that if you know it’s something you do or struggle with only you can make the steps to working on it. Everyone has those troubles, letting things go, but it takes some working on it. Know therapy was always a good way in figuring out how to let go of things. Sure, can manage to grab a drink tonight. Let me know when.

a bandit like me, eyes full of stars | scarlett & sebastian.

It was difficult to recollect the last time she’d had a night like this; quiet, peace blanketing a velvet black sky dusted with stars overhead, left to her own thoughts and the clear air. Montana was shaping up to be just the getaway she needed as she came down from all of the Widow press, enjoying the unknown stretching out before her. Scarlett enjoyed the leisure within her grasp, but a part of her would always be restless, searching for something new to immerse herself into. Sitting in her room after finishing up with her nightly call to Rose and stretched out on the bed while staring at the tent’s ceiling, the only thought she could bring to the forefront of her brain was that the night was young. The night was young and she was itching for a little mischief after the day’s nature hike — getting out being the most convenient way to bring about fun as far as she was concerned — and the solution that would scratch her back was conveniently one room over. Rolling out of bed, she tiptoed into Sebastian’s room, peering her head around the wall structure. Her lips peeled back into a grin when her sights settled on him, hands curled around the logs. “You awake, old man?” she teased. “Kinda feel like getting into some trouble. Could I interest you in joining me?” @stanhqs​

Nights in Montana had left a peace in Sebastian that the Romanian man hadn’t felt in months, possibly years. Clusters of years passed in the blink of an eye, at least the last few years of his life had seem fleeting. A quick snapshot of his life only a mere memory based on the fact that the older man didn’t know how to sit still long enough to enjoy the solace that could be found in the world. Montana had brought that rushing day to day part of his life to a screaming halt, experiencing the wilderness in a way that he truly only thought was found in books, movies, and potentially long rambling Instagram posts. Which was exactly where Sebastian presently was, sprawled across his bed after a long shower, towel still tangled around his hips, legs crossed at the ankles, fingers scrolling through the social media site. The day had been long with hiking and now that he had cleaned the dust from his skin, relaxing even in the early night wasn’t going to garner a complaint from the Romanian man. Clicking on a video the noise sounded before hearing the soft creak of the floorboards before the familiar voice of a certain blonde roommate. “Mmghm” Was a grumbled noise that came from his throat before shifting, cocking his head to look back where her body clung to the wooden logs. “What kind of trouble we talking?” Ushering his feet off the side of the bed and bounding to his feet.

Not even rumors, at this point, babe – I think there was one of those ‘Loki will return for Season 2′ things in the credits for the finale. Not sure if that’s a confirmation, but Disney wouldn’t put that shit in for no reason, so there must be some weight to it. Honestly, 2021 has been non-stop, and I’m here for it. As a Marvel fan, I can’t wait. Ooh, yeah! I saw that – I think I saw that video of doing some voice stuff for the show too, right? I’d ask you to tell me what that’s all ‘bout, but I’m not trying to get you taken out by those Marvel snipers. You’re too pretty for that. 2021 is going to be a good year for any Marvel fan, no matter what level you’re at. 2022 doesn’t seem so far away now, because we’ll have a lot of stuff to fill up that wait time. Oh my God, yes! I ain’t ‘bout people defending that shit. He fucked up. I knew if the love of my life’s last request was to stay the fuck down, and leave shit alone, I’d listen. Not do the complete opposite, like, damn, thanks for not caring about her enough to listen. I’m sorry, but it had to be said. Sure, it would mean we wouldn’t have gotten the next phase of the MCU, but it would also mean that so many of fallen heroes would still be around.         Admittedly, not everyone does, but we all have our own versions of ‘hot girl summer.’ I just think I could show you what I mean, better than I can tell you. And here I thought, I was being smooth, slidin’ my location in there. We could always meet on neutral ground, like the bar? But I figured my tent was a good place to start.

See, that’s the problem, I’ve yet to finish the Loki first season! Between filming and then trips, haven’t gotten to really sit down -- so there’s a spoiler! Would assume that’s Disney’s confirmation though, but also, Disney does weird things. Mean they went back in and edited the end of Wandavision and told no one, you can’t trust them one hundred percent. Don’t worry don’t think the Marvel snipers followed us to Montana and What If... is a pretty well known idea that it’s just the multi-verse of unlimited possibilities. What if this had been different, what if this lesser known superhero had been apart of it -- in animated form! Love is a powerful thing and I get that’s the thing they’re going for but they fucked up a lot of people’s lives because he couldn’t just listen to the fact that Gamora said not to fuck with it. To let her go. Just continually shows men struggle to listen and respect women’s choices. Go figure. If you think that certain superheroes staying around would have meant that MCU wouldn’t have a next phase? Yeah, no, there would have been, just a very different one. Ahh, so you’re a ‘I can show you better than I can tell you’ kind of woman. Which mean I’ve always been better visually or hands on, in learning technique. See a bar might be the best place, not that there’s anything wrong with your tent but given my sense of direction is only strong in city blocks and not wilderness I rather not be lost forever because I can’t figure out one camp area from another.
