it has always meant something more to her , that what most thought of as a simple kiss on the forehead meaning so little , meant so much to stella . maybe it was the fact her father would plant one on her forehead every night when tucking her in , or whenever he’d say goodbye . maybe the last time she ever saw him that’s the last he ever gave her . but it means something to her . it’s intimate , it’s passionate . it’s saying i care : i trust you —— without actually saying it . she doesn’t give it to everyone , won’t allow just anyone to give it to her . it was like hand holding or making love , something gentle . it was something she didn’t do , because that meant attachment , that meant there was a possibility of giving a part of herself over to someone , allowing them to have some kind of hold over her . but she finds herself with a smile etched across her face , eyes bright as a clear summer’s day , the ocean in her eyes calm and warm . ❝ i have a meeting to go to , darling . i’ll be back later . ❞ she squeezes petra’s hand , giving the woman a genuine and rare smile as she leans in , roseate lips coming to meet the flesh of petra’s forehead . her lips linger , a content sigh almost muffling out as she pries herself away .
totally calling out @petrasplaining for making me cry with headcanons about petra and alex’s honeymoon in easter island: “petra looking at the stars and thinking it’s the most beautiful thing and then looking at alex and thinking no alex is def the most beautiful thing.” 😭😭😭
a quiet plea. so different from her usual confidence that it does give mulan pause. a soft sigh escapes and she realizes she’s probably seemed on edge and maybe even a little angry as she’s announced her leave. she knows she shouldn’t, it’ll be SO MUCH HARDER to leave if she does, but she lifts her eyes to look into petra’s. her stomach immediately pools with uncertainty and giddiness and a myriad of other emotions that probably shouldn’t be felt all at once. it causes tears to momentarily collect, but they don’t fall.
“ i’m just going home for the night. ” but it isn’t just that. it’s that her prompting to go home was another moment of hesitation from petra on what exactly it is they are to each other. even she has to admit it feels a little final, so she tries to ease the tension in her own muscles and she walks back toward petra until they’re standing only an arm’s reach apart. “ i can’t stay. –i’m not mad. ” this isn’t a moment to convince herself of what she’s saying because she knows it. maybe she’d felt a tinge of anger at first but any spark of it fizzled out the second she looked back at petra.
she pictures herself reaching up and tucking a few golden locks behind petra’s ear, pictures herself slowly reeling her in and kissing her. she doesn’t do those things. she stays firmly planted. “ i guess i’m just trying to give you some space, more time to think. ” teeth gently bite down atop her lower lip and she hesitates before speaking again. “ but— you’re going to drive yourself crazy overthinking things. ” she holds her breath, hopes she hasn’t overstepped any boundaries. she’s pushing just a little but only because she feels like petra wants to give. wouldn’t be here if she thought there was absolutely no chance at all.
her chest rises , lids glued to the ceiling above her as her head tilts backwards against the pillow beneath her head. it’s not that she’s not used to being below someone, having them be on top for once. it’s happened many times, those moments where she’ll allow those to see her at her most vulnerable, allow them to take control. but succumbing was hard, letting somebody else take the reigns leaves her feeling so vulnerable and powerless . she tries not to think too hard about it, enjoy the moment, she thinks to herself. and it doesn’t take her long for her body to calm, for the desire to over rule her fears as she feels the feather light touch against her bare torso. it leaves her stomach in knots, goosebumps rising across her skin. the touch is so soft, leaves her a little breathless and has the edges of her lips twitching upwards as she tilts her head downwards to see the blonde before her. the moment is so tender, something she rarely ever experiences and although her mind is running over a thousand words per minute, for once she ignores it . and instead, she reaches out her hand to let her digits brush against petra’s hair before tucking it behind the others ear. her head rolls to the side slightly, chest rising and falling as she keeps her gaze fixated on the other.
“that was my life but this – this is my new life. this is the start of our lives together. i can’t live in central city when i want to be with you. this long distance thing is — it’s too much for us. we deserve better, we deserve more. wally has a handle on things in central city and i can always visit joe and iris whenever i want. i want to be here, with you.” barry’s hands moved to cup her cheeks, holding her gently. “i love you, petra. i want to be here, with you.”
warmth spreads across her chest, and she’s never felt so overwhelmed — in the best way she could possibly imagine. her eyes are glassy as she reaches for the hands in her cheeks ( and if hearts could glow, she’s certain this is what it feels like ). her lips press against his again, smile wide and impossible to contain even while she kisses him && she can’t figure out what she did to deserve him, but her fingers curl over his and she holds tight — doesn’t intend on ever letting him go.
“That child is out of control, wow.” Jessica crosses her arms, shaking her head at the insubordinate child running away from his mother in the lobby. “Somebody should really teach that woman how to control her child. My kids would never act like that.” In fact, her own are quietly sitting across the lobby doing their homework. She’s so proud.
Jessica’s not wrong. Mateo can be quite a handful sometimes ( and that’s putting it lightly ). She’d know — she’s had to deal with him first hand on more than one occasion. And she would be quick to agree, if it weren’t for the subtle hit at Jane’s parenting skills. “That woman’s name is Jane. And she’s actually been through a lot the last couple of years. She’s doing the best she can.”
a knowing smile pulls his lips upward & his lips gently touch hers, arms looped tightly around her waist. fingers lightly play with the fabric of her shirt and he hums. “mhm.”
“well, i’m all yours for the rest of the night…” she can’t help but grin, even while she kisses him. arms reach over his shoulders before wrapping around his neck and she pulls him closer — feels her heart beat just a little bit faster && she genuinely can’t remember the last time things were this easy.
she’d be lying if she were to say it’s never crossed her mind that there’s a possibility that this relationship is mostly based on obligation or even pity on jane’s part. ( given their complicated history, she wouldn’t be surprised. ) for starters, she’s the mother of her son’s siblings which makes them family, and not exactly by choice. and then there’s the ( sometimes really exasperating ) fact that jane’s just… nice and pleasant and everything petra isn’t.
so she really doesn’t want to impose. besides, it’s not as if she has to celebrate her birthday. she didn’t last year, or the year before that. but then she’s hearing words of reassurance, words that shelve whatever doubts she still has and – ❛ fine. ❜ she relents, and a smile threatens to pull at her lips. ❛ just us and the kids ? ❜
This blog is private and highly selective, which means I'll only be interacting with MUTUALS. Multi-verse, multi-ship, oc, crossover and fandom friendly. CANON DIVERGENT.
I have a list of characters that I choose to write exclusively with. Kindly look through them before approaching me so we can avoid awkward conversations regarding this.
Please remember that this is MY interpretation of Petra, and while I try as much as possible to stick to what's known in canon for canon verses, I do take liberties for non-canon verses.
THIS IS NOT A SPOILER FREE BLOG. I'll tag spoilers as jane the virgin spoilers for up to a week after an episode airs, if you want to blacklist that.
If I'm following you, be assured that I've looked through your guidelines. I ask that you also read mine at least before interacting. Thanks! :)
BASICS
This blog is PRIVATE AND HIGHLY SELECTIVE, which means I will only be interacting with mutuals.
Multi-verse and multi-ship. OC, fandom and crossover friendly.
I am not Petra Solano. Her thoughts/beliefs/etc aren't mine.
WRITING & REPLIES
If we're mutuals, feel free to write me starters, send me memes and/or come to my IM to plot anytime you want, regardless of whether or not we've interacted prior. I do have discord ( claire temple#1301 ), but I only use it for plotting and/or talking to people. Everything IC stays on Tumblr.
I'm slow. I'M SUPER SLOW. Sometimes I take days, sometimes I take weeks, sometimes even months to reply. If that's not okay with you then I'm probably not the writing partner you're looking for.
I don't mind winging things/testing dynamics without plotting, but I'd prefer to start out with only one to few liners for threads like those, then build on it. Please be mindful of this. Writing large chunks of paragraphs for someone my muse has no relationship with is extremely tedious and stressful for me.
If I write you a reply that you're not comfortable with, not sure how to reply to, etc., let me know and I'll be more than happy to change it for you!
I don't expect equally matched lengths for replies. Write however little or much you want! As long as there's something for my muse to react to, we're good.
Note: I will no longer respond to starters with guests inquiring at the hotel/similar.
MEMES
I'm a meme hoarder. I'll reblog memes, answer them a month or three later. Basically whenever I get an idea for it. So if you send me one and I don't respond immediately, that's probably why.
You can send me as many memes as you want at any given time. In fact, I encourage multiple memes, because I won't always get ideas for everything I'm sent and having options makes things easier. I also love meme spamming every so often. Don't ever feel the need to reply to anything I send you though!
I sometimes use memes to test potential dynamics between muses, so I don't mind being sent established relationship-type memes from those I don't have plots with yet, be it platonic, romantic, etc. I don't mind when other muns answer memes I've sent in the same manner.
SHIPPING & RELATIONSHIPS
Pre-established relationships are preferred. I find writing first meeting threads to be generally difficult for Petra, who isn't exactly friendly or interested in engaging in most conversations.
I have a main verse ship with OLIVER QUEEN. If you have any questions regarding this, feel free to message me!
If you wish to ship with me, let me know so we can discuss and set a private verse for it. I ship pretty much everything, so there's a 110% I'll say yes!
EXCLUSIVITY
I enjoy interacting with multiple iterations of characters and I don't take issue with people writing other versions of my muse either. I'm comfortable with duplicates, but I know not everyone is so if you have any issues about it, let me know and we can talk about what we can do about it.
That said, I do have a list of muses that I'm exclusive with. I ask that you respect this and if I decide not to write with you, know that it's not personal and has nothing to do with you.
I will not be exclusive with any canon Jane the Virgin characters. I'm open to having mains though.
FOLLOWING & FOLLOW BACKS
I generally tend to follow everyone back regardless of whether I'm familiar with their fandom. If I don't follow back/unfollow, it's likely because: you don't cut your posts, there's too much negativity on your blog, you and/or your posts make me uncomfortable.
TRIGGERS & NSFW
I will occasionally write about/touch on the following topics since they're integrated into Petra's canon: postpartum depression, post traumatic stress disorder, paranoia, cancer, abuse, kidnapping, miscarriage, death, murder, guns. If you're sensitive about any of these, please let me know in advance (at least prior to writing with me) so we can talk about how to avoid discomfort on your end. Otherwise, if you follow and interact with my muse, I'll assume you're okay with these topics.
I'll always tag common triggers as content cw. If I miss something, it's likely because I didn't realize the post contained something triggering. If that happens, I apologize and please let me know so I can tag it in the future.
NSFW content may occasionally be present on this blog. I'll tag those as nsfw.
FACE CLAIMS
I'm open to writing with duplicate face claims from the JTV fandom, but unless discussed, I'll automatically assume that, for example, a character using a Gina Rodriguez FC does not look like Jane Villanueva.
MISC
Let me know if there are problems regarding anything so we can sort it out, and I'll do the same for you.
I am not Petra, but I'll do my best to roleplay my interpretation and understanding of her character. If you have issues with how I play her, find someone else who plays her to your liking. Don't hate. I created this blog for fun and I'd like it to remain that way.
I do not own Petra Solano, nor do I claim to.
Hi! My name is Bea (she/her). Thanks for taking the time to read my guidelines. I look forward to writing with you!
READ FIRST
I am only willing to add muses I've extensively plotted and written with on this list. If you ask to be on mine, I'll expect the same from you. If you completely disappear for more than a month without a word or hint that you'll be back at some point, I'll remove you from this list.
If I'm already interacting with several iterations of your character at the time you ask to be added, I will likely not agree to be mutually exclusive out of courtesy to the other mun/s. These lists are only for in-character interactions.
I will not be exclusive with any canon Jane the Virgin characters, but I'm open to being mains.

biography
You can find her wiki biography here. My main verse is canon divergent, in that Petra is in a committed relationship with Oliver Queen from the time jump (post 3x10) onward, which means any developments in her love life in canon will not be acknowledged. Feel free to PM me for any questions you might have til I've updated her bio.
