(Sorry not sorry BUT THIS PICTURE spoke to me; hear me out!)
The look he could give when iris throws a tantrum & says something mean without thinking; immediately notices the look; body slams him with her tiny body before apologizing profusely, making him laugh / smile, messing up his long hair before making a run for it before he could react & for added extra adorableness; Miles could be trying to be dead weight by clinging to Joel’s leg to give Iris a head start at escaping; wearing nothing but a training diaper, toddler cow boy boots, a toddler cow boy hat & shrieking with laughter as he’s shouting in his tiny southern drawl that he’s under arrest!
Okay I’m done; have a good day! ❤️🤭
you’ve inspired me 😭 elementary!drabble under the cut!!! 🫶🏼
“Iris,” Joel scolded, standing inside of the garage as he watched Iris and Miles play in the kiddie pool on the front lawn. Iris had just shoved her younger brother so hard it made him slip and fall onto his back, his loud wails no doubt heard from the other side of Austin. He stomped over to the inflatable pool, his eyes stern and hands on his hips. “Come on, you’re done for today.”
“No, daddy,” she cried, stomping her foot.
“No, you had your chance to play, but you messed that all up when you pushed your brother,” he said, walking over to scoop a sopping wet Miles up into his arms. He gave her a firm look and a tip of his chin in the direction of the front door. “G’on, your mama’s inside makin’ dinner.”
“No,” she protested, folding her arms over her chest and giving him a scrunched up face. Adorable, even in the middle of a tantrum.
“Go on,” he enunciated himself, pointing his finger at the door.
“I hate you, daddy,” she shouted. Joel’s face fell into something so tender and hurt that it forced the little girl out of her tantrum. She rushed over to him, clinging to his leg. “I’m sorry, daddy! I don’ hate you!”
Joel shook his head and let out a soft chuckle, smoothing his hand over her back to coax her to look up at him. “I know, baby. But when daddy tells you to do somethin’, you do it. Alright?”
She nodded, sniveling as she recovered from her tears. “Don’t make me tell mama.”
“Then you need to look your brother in the eye and tell him you’re sorry,” Joel bargained, setting Miles down onto the grass. “G’on, then.”
Miles watched his older sister begrudgingly give him a hug, mumbling, “M’sorry.”
“Now it’s my turn,” Joel smiled, crouching down low to meet her at eye level. Iris grinned, almost tackling into the grass as she threw her arms over his neck with a giggle.
“Sorry, daddy,” she giggled, squirming as he fell back into the grass, taking her with him.
“You don’t hate me?” he asked, lifting her up into the air as he laid on his back.
“No!” she squealed.
“Alright,” he chuckled, setting her down. “Y’all can have a few more minutes in the pool, then. But no fightin’, y’hear me?”
The spoke in unison, “Okay, daddy!”
Joel left them to it, his back itching from the wet grass he’d been laying on as he walked towards the front door that was now open. He smiled at you as you leaned against the doorframe, shaking your head with an impresses grin.
“Well done, daddy,” you commended. Joel stepped up onto the front step and tugged you into his arms, giving you a greedy kiss.
“She about broke my heart there for a second,” he confessed, turning to join you in watching them play. “Her teenage years might kill me, I think.”
“Not as long as you use that face you gave her,” you laughed. “That nearly broke my heart.”
not me entirely forgetting i left y’all on a cliffhanger 😭 yes, our beaten down forty year old king lives !! i just have to finish the moodboard and transfer the chapter from my docs over to tumblr 🫶🏼
Hiii! Just wanted to say I ADORE your 'Blue' fanfic. Like, I am in loooove with it. And also wanted to thank you because it's made me feel better about my body. Don't see many x curvyfem! fics around here, but thinking that Joel would like my physical appearance is just something that's made me feel better ab myself. So thank you 💛 I'm so excited for the next part!
you are so so sweet omg 💙 thank you so much! as a plus size/curvy fem myself, it’s been so healing to write a curvy reader—specifically in a story that doesn’t make it seem like that’s our only trait. like i don’t ever want to feel like i’m being loved because i’m fat/curvy, i just want to be loved while i’m fat/curvy, you know? so hopefully Blue comes across that way. and i just know joel miller prefers thicker women, especially 40+ year old joel 😩
Do you have any good Age Gap Joel Miller Fics Recommendations?
hi anon! i’m not reading much fanfic these days, but i’ll always recommend short days long nights by @frannyzooey !! it’s an all-time favorite if you’re looking for post-outbreak joel/breeding kink joel/reluctant allies to lovers joel (my personal favorite kind of joel 😩)
other than that, there aren’t a ton of series that i can remember off the top of my head, but if anyone has any recs to add, please do so!! for me and for anon ☺️🫶🏼
Question as I went to read it, it was there on my blog until I went to read more and then it was just poof. But did you remove Sex and Sleep Friendly? I love that fic so much.
yeah, a year or two ago i went and deleted all my pedro x reader fics as they're no longer something i'm comfortable with writing or having on my blog. personally, i'm just not into the whole writing about an actual person thing anymore and prefer to write about characters instead. sorry friend!!
I didn’t see you already picked a new name! Ignore my message hahaha! Looking forward to Blue! 🤩
my brother hit me with an idea that i loved and had to use lol but thank you for your ideas though!! i was really considering Berry but then i thought it sounded to much like Barry (serving very much burly man) or Bear-y (also burly man) so we decided to shorten blueberry and call it a day 😂
I don't think he cares he used to like tweets about him being gay all the time. He is not closeted
it’s not about being closeted or not, it’s about allowing him the space to own his sexuality how he wants—on his terms. for us lgbtq+ people, our sexuality is way too often made the subject of discourse and debate or even fetishization, when in reality, we’re just people being people. let him be him, it has nothing to do with any of us.
and psa, this is the last time i’m going to address this subject on my blog because his private life should have zero bearing on the respect and love we should have for him. please children just touch some grass and humanize this man instead of objectifying him.
