Circle

An AU where Lavender got away from the police with Thomas, and decided she needed to do something about his Stockholm Syndrome. She doesn’t really want to hurt him, she just wants him to hate her. 

story under the cut

Lavender circles him with a predatory smirk on her face. “It’s come to my attention that you’ve been. Ah. Misled.” She kicks him a little to see if he’s still conscious and he moans and shifts a bit. The poor boy lifts his head to look at her, his face blotched and wet with tears, yet the duct tape still sticks tight around his mouth. He tries to talk, tries to beg her one last time to stop this. She smiles even bigger. “Who’ve you got to blame, huh?” She slaps him hard across the cheek, he cries out, then lets his head fall. “I told you, you oughta be afraid.” Lavender’s fingers lace through his hair, he pulls away, but she closes her fist and yanks down. “What do you think of me now, Thomas? Still a hero?” she says as she kneels down to look him straight in the face. He can’t look at her and closes his eyes, letting another tear fall down. She lets go, stands up and circles around again. “How do I make this as clear as possible. I’m a goddamn criminal. I’m not a good person. I only saved you because you’re a hundred thousand dollars, got it?” Thomas is silent and ashamed, still unmoving. Lavender stops at a chest at the side of the room and sits on it, swinging her legs and yawns. “And Nico? I would’ve left him.” Thomas listens intently, his body stiff. “His stupid fucking rescue attempt almost got me caught. Wouldn’t go near him with a ten mile pole, but if I could, I’d make sure he learns not to be a fucking hero. Especially when he’s just an idiotic lovestruck child,” she sneers, playing with her knife. He can’t see it, but a sly smile spreads on her lips. “Maybe when I’m all done with you, I’ll grab him just to teach him a lesson, yeah?” Thomas breaks his silence at last, swearing and fighting against the chains, demanding that she take it back.

A convo with sushi led me to write a little drabble about another AU of sorts.

So Lavender lives, the money’s exchanged, Thomas goes home, and she’s gone in the wind. Things are mostly back to normal, but Thomas keeps getting envelopes with pictures of him bound and gagged. Lavender’s idea of a joke. 

Soon, #ThrowbackThursday isn’t so fun anymore.

It’s a regular week, and he’s just waiting for Friday. Just a few more days until the weekend. He’s scrolling through instagram and- oh, there’s a flood of posts he’s already seen before. Pictures of friends at the beach, trips overseas, stuff like that. Someone tagged him in a selfie from whenever ago. It’s cute, but the pose looks too much like… Wait Lavender did that EXACT same pose and everything, except she had a knife to his throat. And no matter what, he can’t unsee it. His neck starts feeling constricted and it’s hard to breathe, and he doesn’t know what to do. And people keep posting pictures like this, and they won’t stop because they don’t know it hurts him like this, and now every Thursday he shuts off his phone and goes for a run because he doesn’t know what else to do. He can run away for social media for a day, easy enough, but snail mail doesn’t really have a block feature. There’s never a return address. At this point, he knows he should just throw the peculiar envelopes into the recycle bin upon finding them in the mailbox, but he doesn’t. He always has to look at them. It’s morbid, he knows, but he just has to.

ref of Thomas’ injuries

plus a little drabble--

After he’s rescued, he tries to go right back to normal and go to school and all that, but everyone wants him to take a few days off. Because seriously, he needs some time, right? But noooo he insists on going back immediately. He missed too much school and he wants to see everyone again. He just wants to leave what happened behind. He and his parents compromise and he waits only a day before going to school again. So the kid’s getting ready that morning, doing his regular routine. The hot water from the shower seems to bite at his raw skin, and the soap stings a little too. He can ignore it, but when he pulls a towel around himself, it just feels too rough. Thomas carefully pats himself dry, then turns and catches a look at the mirror. Oh. He hadn’t seen how bad it was. He puts on a long-sleeved collared shirt. To hide all the stuff, you know. But it feels too restricting. The fabric bunches up on his arms and rubs against the cuts. So he switches to his favorite t-shirt, a soft grey v-neck with a little pocket. You can see more of the red marks all over his arms, but at least it’s more comfortable. He can deal with this. It’s not so bad. And then later when he gets to school, he takes his usual path down the halls to Nico’s locker where he meets him every morning, but it feels unfamiliar. Some of the students stare or whisper, which he can handle, but on top of that his typical path around the tangles of people feels like it filled in with his absence. He feels betrayed. No, not really, but… it hurts.

Nico loves bubblegum but has no idea how to actually blow a bubble. Thomas, on the other hand, is an expert, and will blow bubbles as big as a softball, and Nico will try to pop them in his face so Thomas has to swat his hands away.

throwback to freshman year by scarletfish8eta

Thomas was a lil fuckin nerd with braces, until soph year when he got hot, joined baseball and student council, and broke everyone’s hearts

I mean, he was always a fuckin nerd, and he stayed a fuckin nerd, but glo up I guess. He still likes go karts and reading fantasy books, he just got tall, learned to dress himself, and people noticed him
