Come to Bed
John Donovan X Reader
Warnings: None, this pretty fluffy and sweet. I just think donovan needs some sleep.
Coming home to the TV still on, and the news still playing was not an irregular occurrence. The coffe pot looked to have been refilled during the day, otherwise it would have been empty. Stepping further into the Motel Room it was then worry started to build in you chest, if he wasn’t sleep on the couch then where was he?
The feeling of worry quickly went away when you picked up the sound of the News playing on the tv. Coming to the office door Donovan was still in the same place you had left him this morning. Standing in his office, red sharpie in hand, circling faces and drawing arrows on what you assumed where photos for lincoln.
What Donovan was doing for lincoln was the same as what you would do for your own. This revenge plot would take time and hard work of course, and you knew that. It’s just, you really were hoping it wasn’t at the expense of donovan’s health and already terrible sleep schedule.
Leaning against the door frame you took a closer look at him. He looked... disheveled at best. At least he had undressed from when you left him this morning! Boxers and the t-shirt was always what it came down to when he wanted to be comfy. Yes he was cute but he looked so tired, his eyes were puffy and just a little baggy.
You made use of the lack of attention yiu has gather from him, and quickly went to go hang up your stuff and put your things from work away. Taking off you shoes was the final step and then you crossed the threshold into his office. He was really into what ever he was reading. But it was time for him to get to bed. And it was time for you as well.
When you stepped around his chair and wrapped your arms around his chest, It seemed like it was the first time he truly noticed the fact that you were home. He heard you come through the door, he felt you eyes watch him, and felt them dissappear when you went you put your things down, so he knew you were home but was truly to tired to express his joy. In fact when exactly did the sun go down? His train of thought was quickly derailed when he felt you pressing kisses against his neck. That combined with your hands moving slowly along his shoulders he could have fallen asleep right then and there.
And then it all stopped. you pulled his root chair out from under the desk and spun him around to face you. oops. he had no where to run.
Finally he spoke “Hello darling, light of my life, my sugar, honey, and iced tea how lovely it is to-“
“ why are you still where i left you this morning?”
“Excuse me but i happen to be very comfo-“
“How long have you just been sitting here john?”
“ for exactly how long you think I did... but yes since you left me this morning but I just got really into this one case and was about to-“
“So in other word you know it’s time for you to get some sleep, yeah? “
He was about to argue some more but stopped when he felt you slip your arms from off the back of his chair. It was this that made him realize how tired he really was. He suddenly wasn’t as comfortable anymore and decided that he would get up and join you in bed once and for all.
He got up and followed you through the door into the other room. And then unceremoniously dropped face first into the bed. You changed into something to sleep in and then took it upon your self to turn off the lights around you, on both sides of the bed. And finally slipped into the bed along side him.
You weren’t in the bed for more than a minute before you felt him shift over so he could hold you in his arms You felt his arms wrap around you protectively and went ahead and put your face right over his chest. If this is all it took to get him in to bed and sleeping, then you could live with that.
Lincoln Clay SFW A-Z
- written with a chubby reader in mind, but that’s not the main focus at all.
!: possible suggestive themes. nothing too serious tho
A= activites- what do they like to do with their s/o? How do they spend their free time with them?
When Lincoln does have time to spend with you [ Aside from any missions he takes you on] he likes to take you out to do things. He will take you to areas and districts he has already claimed so that it’s safe for the two of you. And then he leaves it up to you. You want dinner? You got it. You wanna go to a show? You got it. You wanna have a night in with just you and him? You can have that too. But he wants to show you off.
B=beauty- what do they admire about their s/o? What do they think is beautiful about them?
Lincoln enjoys his s/o’s shoulders/chest. He thinks that your collar bones are beautiful, and he enjoys a sweetheart neckline. When he sees you during the day, his arms always find their way around your shoulders. And at night in the bed, he wraps his arms around your shoulders and crushes you against his side. His face finds its way to your neck and chest by the end of the night
C=comfort- How would they help their s/o during hard times or when they need it most?
When you come to him with an issue, and it so happens that you ended up getting hurt or threatened. Then he handles the issue right away, he may have other things to do but you are at the top of his list. He will make sure you never have to deal with this issue again. If the issue happened to be more emotional, he may not be as much help. But he will hold you until you pull yourself together and assure you that he has your back.
D= dreams- how do they picture their future with their s/o?
All Lincoln knows is that he wants you for as long as he can keep you. He will continue to fight to keep you, but he knows some day soon his story will come to an end. The thought that his life is not guaranteed is the only reason why your future is iffy.
E= equal- are they the dominant one or are they more passive in your relationship?
As much as my switch ass hates to admit it, he ends up being the more dominant one in the relationship. He leads the way day in and out. Let you know when to go and where. Stands in front of you when you go places, and nudges you behind him a little for most conversations. Checks in on you all the damn time, and does most of the stuff for you when at home, even when you insist you can handle it.
F= Flirting- how often do they flirt or tease their s/o? How smooth are they?
He is flirting with you every chance he gets. Sly little things whisper into your ear when you try making breakfast. Lingering touches when you begin getting dressed for the day. Filthy things said over the dinner table, just to startle you a little. Smoother than he should be. Every move he makes has the ability to lead into a quickie somewhere. A dangerous man indeed.
G= Gratitude- How grateful are they in general? Are they aware of what their s/o does for them?
Lincoln is very grateful for you. He knows he can be considered scary, he hears it enough from the people on the street. But his heart swells every time he returns to your shared Apartment and all of you are still there. He Doesn't know how he would patch himself up if you were there as well, you keep him clean and healthy after a long day.
H=Honesty- do they have any secret that they keep from their s/o or do they share everything
Lincoln doesn’t talk about the things he did during the war, he will talk about his time, and about the activities he did with donovan. But he leaves out the gross gorey details, he doesn't want to come off as a monster
I=Inspiration- did their s/o change something about them or is it the other way around? (it could be personal issues or just trying new day to day things)
You have reminded him that there is still a little heart within him. When he comes home, he tries to remind himself that this is you. And that you love him. And he tries to put that hardcore, Sal killing mindset away, and just tries to relax
J=jealousy- do they get jealous easily? How do they deal with it?
I don't think that he is given many chances to get jealous. I think he knows that the two of you are in a relationship, and I think that he would have trust for you. If he ever does get jealous, he will bring it up and maybe ask a question. But he really just wants peace of mind not to create problems for the two of you.
K=kiss- how do they kiss? What was the first kiss like?
Well for starters Lincoln alway kisses you when he sees you, and when he's saying goodbye. These kisses are short and chaste, just enough to give a taste of you for good measure. His other kisses are always more intense, his hand squeezing your waist or thread through the hair on the back of your neck, just to hold you in place while he kisses you. Breathes in the scent of you deeply and doesn't let you go until he’s done kissing you
L=Love confession- How did it go down?
He was hurt pretty badly after a mission. It seems like all the adrenaline shots in the world couldn't help his case. He was hurting real bad, but all he could think about was coming to you, and making you the last thing he sees, before his time is up. But your home appeared closer than he thought it would, and before collapsing on your doorstep he knocked on the door. [Ever the gentleman] And After hearing your concerned gaps and the watering of your eyes and felt safe enough to sleep. And when he woke up, the first thing he saw was your form right next to him. He had to let you know how felt, before he never got the chance again
M=Marriage- do they want to get married? How do they propose? Wedding day description?
Marriage may seem like a far off dream for Lincoln. The only thing he sees set in stone for his future is Sal Marcono’s death. I think Under different circumstances, with Sammy still alive, he would be a married man for sure.
N=nicknames- what do they call their s/o?
Puddin
Peaches
Darlin
Honey
O=Obsessed- how protective are they of their s/o? How much are they worried about them?
Lincoln is as protective as one can be. When at your home, he is alway in the same room as you. He may be doing something like reading a file, or fixing his guns but his glance always finds its way back to you. When he is out with you he is your shadow, right behind you or almost flanking you. He worries about you sometimes, when he has to leave the area of your home, he finds himself calling you, or asking Donovan to check up on you.
P=PDA- are they obvious about the relationship? Do they talk a lot about his s/o? Are they okay with affection in front of others?
Lincoln does not just go running around yelling about you. That being said his immediate crew does know about you, sometimes with you coming with him on missions you run into them. Cassandra and Vito are favorable to you, And Burke is.. well.. Burke. PDA in front of the other is rare as when you two are out together there is rarely time for that.
Q= Quirk- some random ability they have in a relationship
Lincoln is just a little touch starved, the human contact he receives is associated with pain and lies. So i think he won't ever need any space, sit next him, on his lap, look over his shoulder when he reads. Just touch him he loves it
R=Romance- how romantic are they? What would they do to make their s/o smile? Are their ideas rather original or creative?
Lincoln takes any chance he has to be romantic.When he isn’t trying to get things done, he likes to spend his time with you. Dates outside of your home are not a common occurrence, he just doesn’t feel like he can really keep you safe. His romance has more of a catering feel. He shadows you a lot so you find yourself not needing to grab things or reach on your own, he’s already one step ahead of you. He likes to make you laugh by being his cute butterbean self.
S=support- do they push their s/o to do better? Do they believe in them?
lincoln isn't the type of person to get to involved in his S/o’s personal life, i mean we all know he is a busy man. If he does push his S/o to do better it's because he knows it's something his S/o is passionate about. He wants the best for you and believes in you as well, he just isn't overbearing about it and may need to be reminded to express that verbally sometimes.
T=thrill- are they okay with a certain routine or do they need some spice every once in a while?
Lincoln needs routine in his life. He has spent most of it away at war where nothing is ever the same. And when he attempted to rebuild his life the first time, everything went sideways. Knowing exactly what going to happen when he comes to see you is something that make him feel stable, and it is something that he craves
Understanding- how well do they know you? Are they sensitive to your emotions?
If Lincoln has committed to being your S/o then he knows you like the back of his hand. He knows when you have good days and bad ones and is always ready to step in and lend a hand
V=Value- how important is your relationship compared to other things in their life?
This question is a little tricky for Lincoln because he has a job to do . He loves you but he also knows that this is a thing he needs to get done. And in order to do that sometimes his job may have to come before you. In the names of people on his list, you are at the top. If you are not his first thought then you are the second.
W=Wild card-Random Fluff bomb!!
Lincoln finds great pleasure in being helpful towards you any time he can get involved in something you’re doing, he wants to be the one who helped you finish.
X=XOXO- how affectionate are they? Are they a cuddle bug or do they like their space?
Because he can always see you, he tends to be very affectionate with you. In his day to day life he doesn't get much healthy skin to skin contact, so any chance he has to get some love from you he takes it. He is a cuddle bug, when you take a seat on the couch he sits next to you but much closer than he should be. When out in public his arm finds its way around your waist and shoulders on its own.
Yearning- what happenes when they miss you
When he misses you he finds anyway he can to reach out to you and tell you that he loves you. He most likely has a memento that you've given him in the past that he keeps on him for moments like this. Other than that he gets really solemn, he punches a little harder so he can have a reason for you to clean him up.
Zzz- how do you both fall asleep/nap
When sleeping you both are engulfed in each other. His arms wrapped around you pressing you to him as tight a possible. One leg thrown over his side and your arms around his neck keeping him close to your chest. ITs hot and sticky and gross but you can hear his heartbeat and the sound of his breathing and decide that it's worth it.
MAFIA III
One of the weirdest glitches ever. I decided to yeet this boat but it got its revenge on me xD
MAFIA 3 SPOILERS!!!
I cannot stop thinking about Vito's death scene. He says that he's given up EVERYTHING for the lifestyle he led. There's a real emphasis on how anything that could possibly be given up, he has lost it all, whether it be voluntarily or not.
The "I deserve better" line too...After Joe "died" and before Vito was moved to New Bordeaux, I think it was about two years between these two events, he was definitely going through some of the worst years of his life. The city he grew up in, the city both of his parents died in, the city that he had been trying to build up probably felt like a total wasteland. Every corner had memories that he could not, would not allow to be replayed in his mind. It wouldn't have been surprising if he had really dived into alcohol and late-night company, as well as flat-out refusing to carry out orders that he didn't agree with. Leo must've been doing the best he could to keep him safe from those wanting him dead but after so long of Vito just refusing to do much of anything, Leo decided it would be best for Vito to get a change of scenery.
New Bordeaux's cities are filled with as much life as possible and Vito feels as though he does have a chance to start anew, to have chances to not let the same mistakes happen again. So imagine being in the middle of turning your life around the best you can and then things from the past start poking through the safety net you've worked so hard to make. Joe is alive. Joe is dead. Vito doesn't have a clue. Sal is a horrible boss to be under and Vito knows that even if he did bow down to every single order Sal gave him, Vito still wouldn't be promoted in any way. This new place isn't all that better, there's still a sense of being in a sort of limbo. He deserved better than to be stuck doing something in which he could easily be replaced. AND HE BELIEVES THIS. Vito knows his worth and knows he could be doing more, that he's capable of more.
And Lincoln saying that Vito just couldn't be content with what he built up had me thinking that Vito got greedy to justify all of his loss and grief, not solely because he wanted the power-trip. He never gave up on this lifestyle because it would be like everything and everyone he lost was for nothing. He has more purpose now, more drive. More motivation to do more good than bad.
The ending that gives Vito complete control over New Bordeaux shows that he does do good and that all along, he has been capable of so much more. He builds hotels, convention centers, and arenas. LITERALLY CHANGED THE ENTIRE CITY AND MADE IT SUPER WELL-KNOWN. And although it isn't explicitly stated, he most definitely helped rebuild the Hollow, helped open up Frisco Fields' theme park, and donated to hospitals and schools just as Lincoln had done.
Anyways long live laugh love Vito Scaletta
Happy International women's day! ❤️
vito scaletta + smoking 🚬
My thoughts about Vito Scaletta.
Vito is my favorite character. Not much of a surprise, I know. Vito is possibly the most loved character from the series. Yet, from what I’ve seen, not everyone was pleased with Vito in Mafia III. After reading a lot of comments on the issue, I came up with my own conclusion about him, and I hope this text helps any mafia fan who’s not sure about playing the third game.
I remember having recently finished Mafia I and still being heartbroken about it (who wasn’t?), when deciding if I was going to play Mafia II. By the time I already knew Vito was Tommy’s killer and all, but at the same time I was too curious to back away.
It was love at first sight. I always found Vito extremely relatable, and the fact that we had the same age (19 - 20) in the beginning only add up to the feeling that we had a connection. This feeling is what allowed me to constantly observe Vito, especially after Mafia II ending.
Then Mafia III comes and I have to admit I wasn’t very keen on the idea of playing it after reading so many bad reviews, but one thing convinced me: Vito. I was one of the fans who would end up hooked by the opportunity of seeing my bff once again. I’d eventually fall in love with the game itself and everything, but I still feel like there’s something to be said about Vito in his forties.
Since I love him so much, I usually take my time analyzing him, and the outside perspective Mafia III offers makes things even better. So here’s what I saw:
Vito’s story is about a boy who daydreams about entering the Mafia. He keeps an idealized image of it, and the whole plot of Mafia II is about him doing everything he can to make this dream come true (and that’s why the second game is my favorite one). The rise of a poor but determined boy and the fall of a made man whose ideas were all wrong right from the start but he never saw any of it coming. His monologue, the sadness in his eyes while looking at his family album, his expressions while listening to Leo’s reprimands, his coldness when arriving at the observatory, the way he says “what the fuck is this?” and the look in his face when realizing he couldn’t save Joe – everything is there, proving that an old Vito was dying right there, right in that moment. Leaving his old self in the city that raised him.
Remember when he was all dressed up looking at the mirror right before meeting Eddie for the first time? His reaction when hearing about how Joe talked about him to Henry? His pride during the Omerta? That’s the old Vito. The innocent Vito. That Vito remained at Empire Bay.
Sounds familiar? Yeah, c'est la vie. We all grow up, sooner or later. I have a feeling that for Vito it was later. Anyway, he’s not the same when arriving at New Bourdeux. And here’s where we start our conversation.
He comes to a new town (the opposite of everything Empire Bay was), this guy Marcano (older than him) HATES him, Leo probably disappears leaving him all by himself and he’s given an ugly, poor district called River Row to run and make money out of it. Cool. Oh, and I didn’t even mentioned the fact that he was still carrying the weight of losing his best friend. Nice.
Mafia III takes place 17 YEARS LATER Mafia II. Imagine Vito going from a young and scared 26-year-old to the 43-year-old man who you found inside a freezer, cursing at the four winds. Can you imagine what hell he went through during all this time? Did the people who complain about “Vito not being the same anymore” EVER imagined what he had to endure in New Bourdeux that would eventually turn him into who he is now? How on earth would he still be the same? Come on, guys. It’s a no-brainer.
Even though I really miss my quiet Empire Bay boy, I really like who Vito has become. He’s clearly the smartest of the underbosses, took River Row out of its misery, kept his own business out of records, has a lot of experience in the mob, doesn’t allow himself to get carried away by other ideas but the job (drinking/race war) and his ending is absolutely the best – proving once again my thesis that Vito’s not a wonderstruck boy anymore, but a mature man who knows “how this shit works”.
Also, his italian accent mixed up with a bit of a southern accent is just really cute.
And you can still see something of the Old Vito. The way he spent 12 years and a lot of money to find Joe and how he works at a dock (AND HIS JACKET) definitely shows his Empire Bay ghosts still revolve around him. But it makes me happy to see that he grew out of his kid fantasies.
Even now, in his forties, while realizing how cruel reality is, I still can relate to him. He’s simply one of the best things from the Mafia franchise.
That’s all, folks. Thanks for the read.
(TL;DR: VITO GREW UP YOU COCKSUCKERS, GET OVER IT!)
Babe please come back to bed they aren’t real.
Also please feel free to use any of my mafia things for anything. That’s what they’re here for after all.
