JOSH O’CONNOR as MR. ELTON in EMMA (2020)

Intrigued about "Last Goodbye" !
Of course you would be you fucking bitch.
Last goodbye is hard, during the drafting process I found myself crying more than once. And it's something i feel needs to be done cuz i dont trust the city of NY to out right just dump Billy in some unmarked grave.
@juguitos asked for 39: “I want to marry you” and then as i went to post it, i answered it privately bc i’m inept so
is it the look in your eye, or is it this dancing juice?
Balloons littered the floor, a multitude of different colours and shapes and sizes. A banner was hanging from the ceiling, a ‘happy birthday’ printed in bright, garish colours. On the table sat a full English breakfast, surrounded by presents and cards, and finished off with the usual cups of morning coffee, steam swirling from them.
Ben walked through the bedroom door into the main room, hand underneath his glasses, causing them to tilt slightly, as he rubbed at his eyes. He was not long since awake, judging by the state his hair was in, all stuck up on the side he’d been sleeping. His cheeks were flushed red, as they usually were on a morning.
“Mornin’.” He muttered out, not looking up.
Callum walked over to Ben, long legs causing long strides and it wasn’t long before they stood together. The older man wrapped his arms around Ben, pressing their bodies together as Callum’s head snuggled into the crook of Ben’s neck. “Happy birthday.” He spoke, smile evident in his voice as he pressed a kiss to Ben’s neck, not wanting to pull away from the embrace.
At that point, Ben looked up and saw what Callum had done.
“Wh- how long have you been up?” Ben asked, his arms still wrapped around Callum, stroking his back comfortingly.
Callum shrugged, tilting his head and resting it on Ben’s. “Couple hours.” He answered. “Wanted it to be perfect for you. I’ve done your favourite, and all these presents are from me, we can go and see your family for the rest of them afterwards.”
Ben reached up, grabbing Callum’s head in his hands and pressed their lips together, well and truly overcome with emotions. Nobody had ever done this for Ben. Nobody had ever cooked him his favourite breakfast for his birthday, or put banners up, or had their flat look like the inside of a balloon factory. “Thank you.” He breathed out, eyes open and gazing directly into Callum’s. “So much. You’re perfect.”
“S’nothing.” Callum shrugged nonchalantly.
“It’s not nothing, babe. Nobody’s ever done this for me. You are amazing, and I’m so lucky to have you.” Ben smiled, running his thumb over Callum’s cheek, feeling as they started to flush underneath his touch. It was electrifying.
Callum shook his head, pulling away but grabbing Ben’s hands, guiding him over to the table. “Sit down, enjoy. It’s your birthday, our first one together. I’m treating you.”
Ben took a sip of his coffee, and his eyes rolled to the back of his head. Callum, even though he wasn’t a coffee lover himself, managed to making it perfectly – not too bitter, not too sweet. He looked up and saw Callum smiling at him, hair fluffy, like he’d only ran his fingers through it. Ben reached his hand out across the table, linking his fingers with Callum, interlocking them in an embrace he never wanted to escape from.
Callum raised an eyebrow, knowing that Ben was going to speak. They knew each other too well now, knew all their little quirks and traits and Callum was just waiting for Ben to talk.
“I want to marry you.” He blurted out.
Callum’s heart stopped beating for a moment, before it picked up its pace and soon it was all he could hear – the thumping of his own heart as blood rushed to his head, not knowing what Ben was going to say but certainly wasn’t prepared for that. “D-do you realise what you just said?”
Ben smiled shyly, looking down at their interlocked digits and then back up to Callum, eyes catching eyes. He nodded, and leaned across the table, hands never falling from each other as he gently pressed his lips to Callum’s, a small gesture not leading to anything more. They didn’t need to. “Yeah. I love you, Callum, and I want to spend my life with you. Marry me?” He asked.
“You must be mad.” Callum chuckled, shaking his head in disbelief.
“That a yeah?” Ben asked.
“Course it is.” Callum answered, wild grin on his face. “Course I’ll marry ya.”

WIP word guess: Hope?
You’re amazing,” Callum whispers, smiling softly. His hand is still in Ben’s hair, eyes shining in the moonlight. “Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise.”
“So are you,” Ben replies, just as quiet, gentle. Darkness settles around them and Ben feels like they’re in their own little world, existing on a planet that nobody else can see, that nobody could ever hope to reach.
Callum tilts his head up, eyes roaming the sky, finger pointing over the trees. “Look, there is it.”
Ben lifts his eyes.
“The star I was talking about the other day,” Callum continues. The stars twinkle by the hundreds, gathered thickly. Ben has no idea which star he’s talking about in particular, but he knows that it’s up there somewhere. “Your star.”
“Our star,” he corrects.
send me a word, if it’s in one of my wips i’ll answer with the passage that it appears in!
juguitos replied to your post: shout out 2 all the ben defenders on my dash rn...
i have not seen any ben hate, whats everyone talking about
i think it’s mostly on twt tbh but a little bit has bled over onto here, but basically spoilers come out today saying that ben’s gonna go on a date with someone else (before callum’s date) and some people’s reaction to it has basically been that ben is a piece of shit for doing that and that he clearly doesn’t care about callum and that callum deserves better and shouldn’t take ben back after this.... even though the spoilers abt callum going on a date came out first and no one said any of that abt him..... and the fact that they’re literally not even together and they’re both adult men who can do whatever they like with whoever they like...
plus there’s been a lot of negativity about ben that’s been building for a while regarding the whole keanu sl and how bad/nasty/vile etc ben is and that callum shouldn’t be with someone like that (i did see one comment that made me laugh abt how callum shouldn’t be with someone capable of murder when ben has been a known murderer since long before callum even knew him.... like he’s LITERALLY been inside for manslaughter lmao ???) and it seems like that has come to a head today with those spoilers and it’s basically like the newer fans/the fans who only care abt ballum don’t understand (or care) that this is who ben IS!! this is who he has always been!! like he’s always been nasty and cruel and done horrible things that’s like a fundamental part of his character and it always has been and it always will be to a degree and it’s just like. bizarre that u would chose to actively be a fan of/follow a couple but then shit all over one of the people in it for being a bad guy when that’s literally his character, esp when this very much isn’t a new thing.
idk i just think ppl got used to this ‘good ben’ we’ve got recently too quickly and that maybe there is a gap between ppl who are familiar w ben’s history and character and the people who are new to the show and ben but if that’s the case and you don’t like this side of ben then just... don’t watch ? unstan? pour your energy into smth else??? u feel me??
there may be more to it than that but that’s all i’ve personally seen !!
LoVeo beOtch... 💙💜 #Mariquitas #Juguitos #Jarritas #Bowies #Sabadaka #Pinkie 😂 (en Querétaro Arteaga, Mexico)
@juguitos yeah i realised this happening more than once in different situation. Such fucked up people. Maybe it's not the fandoms that are toxic but it's the whole website.
