Happy 48th wedding anniversary to John and Veronica Deacon 💒💕
My yearly illustration for the Johnica anniversary is the complete version of the angel John I posted for the new year, with Veronica flying with him 💖 Their poses are inspired by Love and Psyche by William-Adolphe Bouguereau, and John's outfit has been designed by my friend @seventhmoonforreal 🥰💕
This has been a long work stretched for a few months, I started it in summer, and I genuinely hope you'll like it 💖 As always, my best wishes for John, Veronica and their big family for a lovely anniversary 🥰
Please do not repost or trace. Comments and reblogs are highly appreciated! 💜
Today, August 24th 2022, is @warriorteam1924 's birthday and I'll make a lil special with three lil gifts from the bottom of my heart.
This one is 70s Deaky, Kate's fave version of him. Of course in the centre must be John inviting us for a toast ;) yknow, in this case, a bday toast for Katie! ❤️
Katie, I hope you like this simple collage 💕 it's simple but it was made with love.
I want to share this fic (or drabble.. idk) for the #Deakys70Event2021 . Thank you @deakysgurl for this amazing event, I'm happy to be part of this with so many talented people.
Note: English is not my mother tongue, sorry for the mistakes.
Prompt chosen: First ever concert.
Summary: The guys are celebrating after their first concert as a band and John feels happy with his new bandmates.
Word counts: 200... maybe.
The crowd shouts loudly. The lights still shining on stage and the band don't stop celebrating their incredible first concert.
There are hugs and kisses around the room and all of them looks each other with so much proud for their job.
Roger hugs John and the bassist is surprised, he doesn't expect that.
"You're a fucking killer. Where is the shy boy with silly clothes?"
"That's true... I think he keeps stealing hearts out there." Freddie laughs hard and kisses him in his cheek. "Well it's official... We're complete and now the sky is our limit."
"Are you sure about that, Fred?" Brian asking him with a smile on his face.
"I'll say that we could do it... After all, we have a sex symbol, a hot blonde, a mysterious guitarist and a killer bassist with big balls."
Brian and Roger started laughing and John couldn't feel more ashamed.
"Okay, I got it... I'm the cool guy with big balls. If you're envious, it's normal."
Roger laughs louder and takes John by his shoulders.
"How much I love this boy."
"Here we are our best piece. Cheers!" Brian screams and raises his beer bottle.
From that moment Queen started to be greatest and John became their best gift.
A/N: This is a product of a very specific Deaky conversation that occurred in the Queen discord about Deaky and advices. Also based on the Tumblr post which said Mr. and Mrs. Deacon used to take a lot of skiing trips. Does this have a proper plot? No. Am I thinking straight? Probably no. Anyways enjoy!
Warnings: Mild fluff
"I'm home", you heard him call out from the door. A set of squeals saying Daddy from your kids was piercing your ears when you made your way to the hallway.
John was on his knees with his baggage near the doorway and your 4 kids surrounding him and hugging him and in the middle of a show and tell round when you walked in. He looked up with his sparkly smile seeing you.
Kids, being kids, found their next distraction except for your youngest who was clinging on to her daddy ran back to their playroom. John kissed the top of your youngest's head and said, "I'm gonna go say hello to your mum, now" and stood up and walked to you.
You watched your youngest run past you to the playroom as John walked towards you, he gave you a sweet, soft kiss and gave you a hug and pulled away whispering, "Hey". "Hi", you said smiling, your fingers tracing the buttons of his shirt and said, "I've missed you." "I've missed you too. I've got so much to tell you.", he said.
"Hold that thought.", you said putting your finger over his lips which he kissed. You giggled. His hands were still on your waist, holding you close. "You know we could talk after put our little minions to bed.", you said while he placed soft kisses anywhere he could access and hummed after you said that.
"I'll help you with dinner then.", he said pulling away. "I can't let you do that, honey. You just got from touring around the world.", you said cupping his face and looked into his eyes, "Plus, you look very tired." "No", he said scoffing when you walked back into the kitchen and he followed, "I couldn't look more rested." "Whatever. Just go take a shower and let's all have dinner." "That I can do."
****
Family dinners were a vital part for you and John for connecting with the kids, despite the fact that your picky eaters make a fuss about their dinner. The kids were happy that their daddy was home, that meant family outings, the occasional visit to the studio and whatnot.
You were cleaning up after dinner while John went to put down the kids for the night. "Is it maybe that I've been gone too long or have they grown up so much?", he said as he entered the kitchen. You looked at him before turning your attention to wiping down the dinner table and said, "They're growing up.", you said and walked away to the kitchen to put away your cleaning cloth.
"Too fast.", you said reappearing in the dining room after turning off the lights. "You know it just feels like yesterday that Joey started walking", you said with your hands clasped over your heart.
You both talked you way up to your bedroom as John turned off all the lights behind you both. You went under the covers with John with your head on his chest and your right hand coiling with his left, as John went on telling some interesting tour stories.
"How I have missed him..", you thought as you nuzzled into his chest, that was when you felt the absence of the cool metal against your fingers. "Honey?", you asked. He hummed in response. "I think you forgot to put on your ring after the shower", you said.
"Yea", he said sitting up, you laid on your side as he continued, "About that." You looked eagerly into his face noticing the slight change in the emotion. "I...", he paused and gulped, "kinda lost it..." You immediately sat up facing him.
"You lost it?",you asked making sure you had that right. He looked down and nodded. "Oh my god, John. I thought you were responsible enough to take care of the ring.", you said almost furious. "What the hell happened?", you asked.
"We had an after party after the New Orleans show and we had an early check out the next day. I took it off when I went for a shower and I might've forgotten it...", he said looking up with a guilty look.
"How many times, John? How many times have I told you not to do that, even at home. I have told you a million times to just leave it on when you do whatever.", you said with your head in your hands. "Honey..", he said placing one of his hands on your shoulder.
"This is unacceptable. It was not a random thing, John", you saud. "I know." "You do now, do you? It was not just anything. It was a token of my love, John. I am devastated that you lost it." "I am sorry." "That doesn't change anything", you said angry tears forming in your eyes.
"Why didn't you tell me when you realized?", you asked. "I just didn't want to make you mad.", he said looking down. "Well I am mad now", you said wiping your tears. "I just.. I just wanted to be here even if you're angry. I get to hold you and you can cry on my shoulder, in my arms.", he said attempting to hold you.
The gesture made you tear up more, you didn't give in exactly but right about now you were in his arms, crying into his white t-shirt. "I'm not trying to make things worse by saying this, but our marriage is more than a piece of metal.", you got up to say something which he definitely stopped by holding you closer.
"You see this moment, our bond, our kids and our understanding, our love, that's what our marriage is all about. Not our rings or anything else ", he said placing a kiss on top of your head. It took a second to digest what he had just said but it did make your heartwarm. You smiled as you hugged him and then said, "I'm not going to let you off the hook so easy."
"Oh I know better than that. And that is exactly why I booked a skiing trip for the two of us, next month.", he said.
