Whumptober 2022 - “Faint“

(Not really sure where this one came from, just knew I was going to do a Big Hero 6 fic for Whumptober this year and found the prompts that spoke to me the most.

This is sometime nebulously after Season Three of the TV series, I guess.

Prompts used were:

No. 19 Enough Is Enough: Knees Buckling/Repeatedly Passing Out/Head Lolling

No. 31 A Light At The End Of The Tunnel: Comfort/Bedside Vigil/"You can rest now"

Alt. 12 Carried To Safety.)

Hiro's magnetic discs snapped onto the legs and surface of metal labtables on opposite sides of the room. With a flick, he activated their connectors.

Both tables were pulled up off the ground and yanked into his target in the middle—the lab-coated crazy goggle-eyed villain whose lair the team had just stumbled across while on night patrol.

The man yelped in a satisfying way as the tables smashed into him, though not before he got a shot off from his tranquilizer gun. Hiro grimaced as he felt the needle point hit him in the side, but rushed in to finish the job.

Within moments, the villain was wrapped up in high-density capture cable. Hiro stepped back in satisfaction, tossing the tranquilizer gun aside.

"Well Mister—" Hiro stopped, cocky heroic grin disappearing as he realized, "Actually I don't think I caught your name."

"It's Doctor!" the man yelled, eyes popping wildly behind the goggles. "Doctor Chimera! And a pathetic child like you can't possibly hope to stop me!" he declared. He went into what sounded like a prepared speech, akin to one of Baron Von Steamer's. "I am the world's greatest genetic scientist! I've collected exotic specimens from all over the world! And soon I will make the ULTIMATE PREDATOR! One with the strength of the silverback gorilla and the venom of the Irukandji! Its fangs will be like the king cobra's! It's claws will be—"

Eyes and mouth flat, Hiro activated the taser setting on the capture cable.

"Hhnnngnghghhhghh!" the man blurbbled, flopping around rather comically before slumping with a groan. "Tingly..." he mumbled.

Wearily, Hiro dropped his right arm. He fumbled for a moment at his left side, clumsily finding the dart he'd been shot with and pulling it out.

The tube seemed thick... and worryingly empty. But Hiro put that to the side for a moment as he reached up to activate his comm piece.

"I found our animal thief. He's been put out of commission for now," he reported.

"That's awesome, Hiro! Because we like, totally found a whole bunch of other animals in here!" Fred's voice crackled in over the line. There was a repetitive metal groaning from the Fredzilla suit's springs as the young man apparently bounced all around. "Look at this, he's got bears and badgers and Bengal tigers! Oh! Is that a yellow-tailed black cockatoo? I LOVE those guys!"

"Looks like that missing Katanga lion from the San Fransokyo zoo is here too," Gogo told him.

Hiro's eyelids began to droop, and he pulled himself upright with a shake. "Go ahead and alert the authorities. Then we should..."

He trailed off, a tired feeling beginning to roll over him, heavy like a blanket.

"Hiro?" came Honey Lemon's voice, concerned. "Are you okay?"

Grimacing and blinking hard, Hiro stumbled back a pace and lifted the dart again. "Ah, bad guy here caught me with some kind of tranquilizer dart." There was tiny black lettering on the side of the tube. Hiro squinted at the words, his vision blurring in and out. "It's uh... Xylazine?" he read off.

"IIIIIIIIII don't think that's meant for humans," Wasabi said, sounding anxious. "Isn't that an animal sedative vets use?"

"Wasabi is... correct. Xylazine... is not approved for human consumption," Baymax confirmed.

"Great," Hiro muttered. His head tilted dizzily, helmet leaning to one side. "That would have been... great. To know. Beforehand."

"Hiro," Baymax called to him in concern. "You will begin to feel... excessively drowsy and... lethargic. I suggest obtaining a reclined position, so as to reduce injury."

"Got it." Hiro staggered, his knees suddenly unable to take his weight. Was it him or was the room leaning?

Oh. Oh wait that was right he'd been... tranqed...

What was it Baymax had told him to do? It was hard to focus. He felt so heavy. Weights were dragging down his limbs, gravity pulled at his chin, making his head droop forward. He was sloshing. His feet wouldn't stay underneath him.

"That's... not... a problem..." he mumbled, his own voice sounding dull and far away. Honey Lemon was calling from his earpiece but the words were blurry, watery... incoherent. He wanted to reply but his tongue felt thick.

His knees gave way and a rattle went though his armor and helmet as the floor came up to smack him in the face.

***

"Hiro? Hiro!"

Honey Lemon kept her fingers pressed on her earpiece, but couldn't hear any reply from Hiro's end. She turned to the others, green eyes rife with worry.

"He didn't sound good," she said.

Gogo nodded, face set seriously. "We'll clean up here," she promised. "You two go get Hiro." She pointed to Baymax and Honey Lemon, then snapped into action, skating for the industrial doors and pulling them wide open.

Honey Lemon gripped her purse strap tightly and looked to Baymax.

"Which way?" she asked.

The robot pointed. "Hiro is... there."

She took off, heels clacking on the concrete in a steady, frenetic rhythm.

***

Hiro sloshed back awake, lifting his head groggily. Even that small effort seemed to drain the energy out of him, but he kept his chin raised, blinking slowly and trying to comprehend the blur in front of him.

Metal... metal... concrete... Oh. He was still in the lab. Had he passed out?

He should move. He didn't like the idea of being unconscious while next to a supervillain, even if said villain was tied up and tased.

He tried to send commands to his arms but his weak push up just caused drowsiness to flood over him again. Hiro slumped back down.

Nope, that wasn't happening.

I guess I'll just... lay here, he decided, blackness seeping into his thoughts again.

***

Honey Lemon burst into the room and looked around frantically. She quickly spotted the crumpled figures of the villain and Hiro.

"Hiro!" she cried, rushing to him at once.

Dr. Chimera mumbled deliriously from his prone position as she passed. "Who brought the purple giraffe?" came his dazed question.

Kneeling down and folding her legs underneath her, Honey Lemon turned Hiro over onto his back and began checking his vitals. She pressed her fingers against his neck.

Pulse good. Relaxed but not fluttering.

She leaned down and squinted through the visor of his helmet, catching the faint vapor spots that appeared on the glass as he inhaled and exhaled.

As Baymax shuffled up behind her, she turned her head over her shoulder.

"His vitals seem stable enough but... do you think he's okay?" she asked. "Should we take him to a hospital?" She bit her lip as she made the suggestion. Even though their relationship with the police had stabilized and improved, that didn't mean it was safe to reveal their identities just yet. Would hospital staff honor their privacy? Baymax could probably give them any medical history they'd need but there was no guarantee they'd be able to keep a lid on their secret.

If Hiro's life was in legitimate danger though, that all went out the window, in her opinion.

She would gladly trade her privacy and sense of normalcy if it meant Hiro would live.

They had lost too many friends already.

Fortunately Baymax's quick scan led to the diagnosis:

"He will be all right. The dosage of Xylazine he received is not fatal."

Honey Lemon breathed a quiet sigh of relief.

"He will, however, be extremely tired for several hours, and may need to sleep the sedative off." Baymax tilted his head. "I would also recommend administering an antidote, to counteract the sedative's effects."

"Right." Honey Lemon scooted back a bit, hand hovering over the keypad of her purse. "Xylazine is... not an opioid," she remembered, rambling, brain running down quick thought trails. "But a lot of street drugs mix it with opioids so... naloxone?"

"Naloxone is the current recommended treatment for suspected Xylazine overdose," Baymax confirmed.

Honey Lemon's fingers started tapping at her keypad, carefully counting each element.

"Carbon... 19," she muttered under her breath, being very precise, her purse switched to "small batch" mode. "Hydrogen, 21..." She really would have to thank Hiro again for making her this purse; she still wasn't sure exactly how it worked but somehow it kept each individual element completely contained from the rest, only took the wanted amount from its stores each time. Being ever-conscious of just how many things inside the device would explode without those precautions she had to marvel again at the boy's genius.

Tadashi would have been so proud, she thought ruefully.

"Nitrogen... and four oxygen," she finished.

The purse popped out a tiny capsule, no bigger than the nail on her pinky finger, a single dosage of the antidote. Honey Lemon pinched it in her fingers and then carefully pulled Hiro's helmet off.

He stirred as she did so, blinking up with grimy eyes.

"W...ha...?" he said, bleary. "Whassat?" He squinted, and despite Baymax's reassurances Honey Lemon's heart panged at how vulnerable he looked. "H'ny L'mon?" he slurred.

She gave him a warm smile. "Hey Hiro," she chirruped. She held up the capsule so he could see it. "I need you take something for me okay? It's gonna help get that tranquilizer out of your system."

"Nnnnnmmmmm..." he hummed for a long moment, as if unsure. "'nkay."

Honey Lemon slipped the capsule into his mouth, which puckered as the outer coating dissolved and delivered the medicine down his throat.

"Hgnl, grozz..." he complained.

Honey Lemon's smile widened. She grabbed up Hiro's helmet, sticking it to her armor with another chem ball, then scooped up the boy himself, settling his head against her shoulder.

She returned to the others. Wasabi and Fred alerted anxiously to her arrival and even Gogo looked over in concern.

"Baymax says he's all right, just tired," she told them, and they relaxed.

"Well, good thing tomorrow's a Saturday!" Fred quipped.

With a small smile, Gogo explained, "Chief Cruz has a unit on their way."

Honey Lemon nodded. "I'll go ahead and get him home."

Baymax instinctively extended his wings and let the young woman hop on, and moments later they were streaking over the cool windswept streets of San Fransokyo.

***

Sneaking Hiro and the several-foot tall Baymax into the house was harder than Honey Lemon anticipated. Baymax couldn't remove his armor by himself and couldn't fit in through the door—or the upper story window for that matter—with it on. Honey Lemon had to set Hiro down on a chem ball cushion splatter and painstakingly remove each armor piece one by one, leaving them in the open garage under a tarp. From there it was a relatively simple process of dissolving her spatter and carrying Hiro very quietly up past the living area and into his room.

She stowed his helmet and armor under the bed, but left his undershirt and the rest of his clothes on; she didn't really feel comfortable undressing him while he was out.

Baymax tugged off Hiro's boots and then pulled the blanket over him. He stirred a little, cracking open his eyes.

He froze, breath hitching a little. Honey Lemon guessed he was disoriented, and confused about where he was.

"It's okay," she told him, sitting down in a chair next to the bed and patting his hand softly. "You're at home, Hiro. You're gonna be fine."

"Lab...?" he asked, groggily.

"The others are taking care of it." She smiled. "Just lay back okay?"

Relieved, Hiro sagged back into the pillow. He seemed slightly more coherent than before, but still delirious and watery-eyed.

"You may depart, if you wish, Honey Lemon," Baymax's neutral voice piped up. "I will monitor his symptoms."

Honey Lemon shifted in her seat to get up, but Hiro's fingers unexpectedly grabbed at hers.

"Don't..." he said, tone quiet and pleading. "Donngo. Don' wanna be 'lone."

Her heart splintered at that. "Oh, I..." She looked anxiously at the door and then back at Hiro. "I don't think..."

Her voice trailed off, watching him shift sleepily, bangs falling over his face to tickle his nose.

She gave in easily, leaned in with a smile.

"I'm right here, Hiro," she promised, brushing the bangs away from his eyes. "You can rest now. I'll stay with you."

His eyes stayed closed, but his mouth twitched with a faint grin. "Th'nks... H'ny L'mon..." he sighed, words blurring together. "Ynnow 've... 'lways.. kinda hadda crush... onyou..."

"I know, Hiro," she said, patting his hand indulgently, amused despite herself at how loopy the tranquilizer was making him.

"Sle'py..." he mumbled, sinking into the pillow and relaxing.

Within a few moments, he was breathing deeply, in total slumber, oblivious to the world.

Honey Lemon slipped her hand out from Hiro's and tapped her fists in front of her face, brows scrunched with concern.

"He won't remember this in the morning, will he?" she asked Baymax, slightly anxious, pointing down at Hiro.

Baymax tilted his head and blinked. "I do not think so."

"Oh good," Honey Lemon breathed in relief. "That would be so embarrassing for him." She stood up from the chair, stretching her long arms over her head. "Wake me before Aunt Cass gets up, would you?" she instructed the healthcare bot, before stepping over to the bean bag chair and sinking into it for the night.

Baymax calmly observed from his charging station as the two young heroes dropped off to sleep.

SILVER SOLUTION

(part 2 of galvanising green, read part 1 first!)

pairing: slytherin!hyunjin x slytherin!reader

summary: you dont know where you stand with hyunjin after the greenhouse incident, getting grouped together in potions class might give the both of you some clarity.

warnings: swearing, smut as in: heavy petting, some bathtub fun, praise kink i guess, pretty tame and very fluffy

3.6 k words,

enjoy <3

---

“class, listen up” your potions professor claps his hands together “today we’re making amortentia upon a special request from ms weasley” he smiles at victoire, who’s standing next to you behind labtable.

Potions is your only class you have together this year so you’re always exited for it, especially cause she excels in almost every class.

“mom told me she only realised that she liked dad through making this in class” she whispers to you as the professor keeps telling the class about the ingredients.

“mhh” you nod, pretending to be interested, but you simply cant be. Not when hyunjin is staring holes into the back of your head.

You turn around slightly just to see him at the table diagonally behind you, propped up with elbows on the table and locking eyes with you.

He clears his throat and straightens up to look over at his partner, james , when you catch him.

You sigh as the professor tells the class to begin, victoire already starting to chop up some rose thorns.

“hey, can you grab the pearldust and measure it?” she rips you out of your thoughts about if you were to harsh to the blonde boy that’s been on your mind for the past week.

“uhh- yea” you mumble, grabbing the little sliver bag that’s labelled as ‘pearl dust’.

“how much of this?” you ask before victoire points at the measurements in the book that’s laying infront of her on the table.

After about 20 minutes of mixing the ingredients you suddenly hear a loud clinging of someone dropping a glass, followed by yelling.

You turn around to see hyunjin and james at each others throats, fellow classmates quickly jumping in to get them off of each other.

“hey!” your professor comes running “this kind of behaviour is not acceptable in my classroom! I forbid it!” he says sternly.

Hyunjin and james breathing heavily as they nod apologetically.

The professor looks around before his eyes land on victoire “ms weasly would you be so kind to switch places with mr hwang?” he asks but you know its more of an order than a request.

“uh-“ your best friend looks over at you before a small grin tugs at her lips “yea of course” she chirps.

Your eyes widen as she leaves you alone, turning back around to your concoction to mix the fluid before hyunjin appears in your peripheral.

“hey” he says in a small voice, you just nod, eyes trained on the liquid that’s slowly gaining a pearly sheen.

“you’re still not gonna talk to me?” he asks, watching the silver liquid in the big pot as well.

“I said everything I had to say” you answer blankly.

“well I didn’t” he rebuttals, at which your eyes jump up diagonally to meet his.

“what did you and james fight about?” you ask, ignoring his statement before.

“that’s private” he says almost immediately after you stop speaking, at which you huff.

“that’s great, hwang. i love talking to you when you get defensive” you say sarcastically, continuously stirring the potion.

He exhales irritatedly “then why do you always bring up stuff that you know I don’t want to talk about?”

“because, shocker hyunjin the world doesn’t revolve around you” you turn to him, gesturing with the hand that isn’t stirring the liquid “also jesus christ how much aftershave did you put on?” you scrunch up your nose.

He furrows his brows at you before scoffing “you’re the one to talk, your perfume is stinking up this place” he shakes his head as he looks away from you.

“excuse me?” you turn to him.

“yea- as soon as I got here all I could freaking sme-“ he stops himself and his expression softens as he looks from the liquid in pot back to your face.

“what?” you ask, still infuriated as you look over to see the silver spiralling steam coming out of the pot, signalling that the amortentia is working.

“wow!” your professor comes over and applauds “that’s looking really good kids!”

You feel the blood rush to your head when you lock eyes with hyunjin again.

“I don’t feel too good professor I need to go to the bathroom” you quickly excuse yourself before storming out of the classroom, not waiting for an answer.

Hyunjin is quick to tell him that he’ll go check on you before running after you.

“y/n” he yells down the hall “can you stop running away from me? its getting old” he pants as he catches up with you.

“I never told you to follow me” you snap back, not stopping “leave me alone”

“no” he grabs your wrist to stop you, looking into your eyes when he succeeds “I like you, a lot”

“and I know that you like me back” his eyes are soft when he looks into yours.

“so for as long as you smell my aftershave and I smell your perfume in the amortentia I will run after you” you swallow when he closes in on your personal space.

“it doesn’t matter what I smell because I don’t know if i can trust you” you say quietly.

“I understand, but what can I do to change that?” he asks seriously, you shrug your shoulders.

Hyunjin gnaws at his lower lip, sliding his hand down your wrist to enclose your smaller hand in his.

“how about I can be your boyfriend for like 2 weeks, as a test run” you chuckle and shake your head.

“no-no listen” he pleads.

“yea- okay” you signal him to keep going.

“and if you don’t want me after that we’ll just stop, no pressure no anything, we don’t even have to tell people” he proposes.

“you don’t want to tell people because you don’t want other girls to know?” you ask teasingly.

“I- no-“ he sighs when he sees your grin.

At the same moment the door to the classroom open and the whole class comes out for their lunch break.

Hyunjin looks at you before looking back at them.

“what?” you ask, but he doesn’t answer you.

“hey!” he shouts at the fellow students including james and victoire “I like her!” he points at you.

“oh my god” you whisper, burying your face in your hand embarrassedly.

“a lot!!” he continues before looking down at you “she’s smart and funny and not to mention incredibly beautiful”

“get a room” someone yells before the students laugh and move past the two of you.

“I don’t care about other girls” he turns to you again “please?”

You inhale deeply before nodding “okay”

His pretty lips form into a big smile as his hands find your waist over your cloak.

“so does that mean I’m your boyfriend now?” he pulls you closer to his body, grinning from ear to ear, his eyes turning into crescents.

“14 days test trial boyfriend, sure” you grin back as he slowly leans down.

“but” you say, making him stop his actions “you’ll need to earn the first kiss as my boyfriend” you softly tap your index finger against his lips.

He groans playfully and buries his face into your neck “okay” he mumbles “whatever you want” he presses a kiss to your cheek as you grin victoriously.

-

"are you ever going to tell me why you and james fought in class two days ago?"

"It's not that serious" hyunjin shakes his head, not looking up from the notes on his lap.

"okay" you hum, pushing you hair back when a breeze of wind rushes through hagrids pumpkin field.

You observe the tall blond boy sitting on one of the huge pumpkins next to the one you're sitting on.

"did it possibly have to do with the big griffyndor vs slytherin quidditch match coming up?" you absently tap your feather against the tough skin of the pumpkin.

He sighs, looking up at you "yea"

"Scouts are coming and seekers aren't needed as much as other players, you know, since there's only one in each team" he runs a hand through his hair.

"so we know only one of us could possibly get scouted" you lock eyes.

"you dont know that" you try cheering him up "what if they think the both of you are amazing?"

Hyunjin chuckles "that's sweet of you but even if they did, they'd probably pick james because of his name"

You frown.

"Not that he isnt talented or anything but, you know" he shrugs.

"no, baby dont think like that. I've seen you play, you're amazing, anyone with eyes sees that" hyunjins eyes crinkle up as his pretty lips stretch into a smile.

He pushes himself off of his pumpkin to lean against yours.

"you just called me baby for the first time" he tilts up his chin, locking eyes with you.

"thats the only thing you took from my emotional speech just now?" you snicker, leaning down to boop his nose with yours.

"wanna kiss you so bad right now" hyunjin mumbles, biting his lower lip.

"hmm" you hum "not yet"

"Hey kids, listen i'm all for young love but please not on my pumpkins" hagrid shouts from his window.

"shit" hyunjin laughs.

"sorry hagrid"

-

"you came" hyunjin beams at you, gracefully landing on his feet next to you on one of the high tribunes.

"you asked me to" you tilt your head, as he steps closer.

"yea but it's only a practice game so-"

"i'm still gonna support my boyfriend" you grin, getting on your toes a little to kiss his cheek.

He blushes a little, his cheeks matching the faint redness of his nose, which you attribute to the cold weather; you swear it's the cutest thing he's ever done.

"are you blushing" tease him, cradling his cheeks in your hands.

"am not" he huffs sarcastically at which you giggle and press another kiss to his cheek.

"ay hwang! we dont have all day" a male voice calls for your boyfriend.

He looks back briefly to nod at his teammate .

"come with me after practice? i wanna show you something" he requests.

"yea, okay" you smile.

"okay, have fun watchig, babe" he drops a kiss to your cheek before turning his back to you.

"wait" you hold his arm "you forgot something"

"what?" hyunjin frowns.

"this" you place your hands on his cheeks once more and pull him flush to yourself, slotting your lips against his.

You hear his broom hitting the ground, a second later his hands encase your waist, pulling you closer.

The faint sound of hyunjins teammates hollering is the last thing you hear before his tongue prods at the seam of your lips.

The blood rushing to your ears keeps you from hearing anything but your tongues chasing each other.

You only seperate from each other when a high pitched whistle fills the air.

"fuck" he breathes, grinning before dropping a last kiss to your lips.

"continue this later?" youbite your lip as he picks up his broom.

"definetely" he winks before pushing himself off the ground to meet his teammates hovering in the middle of the field.

"that was so hot" you jump at victoires voice.

"what the fuck" you hold your chest as you turn around to see your bestfriend take a seat on the tribunes.

"how much did you see?" you adjust your green-white scarf as you sit down next to her.

"enough babe, that was a sexy girl move" she fiddles at you scarf as well.

You laugh "yea?"

"hell yea, look" she points up at hyunjin, where him and his teammates are still talking, one of them pushing hyunjins shoulder playfully.

"they are totally jealous of him" she squeals "and i'm totally jealous of you" she squints her green eyes teasingly.

-

“i can’t believe they let you use the prefects bathroom” you awe as you look around the spacious room with high walls and windows, where he had taken you after practice.

"one of the perks when you're the star of the slytherin quidditch team" hyunjin grins, dropping his slytherin coat to the ground.

He walks over to the gigantic bathtub and turns on the water, glancing over at you.

"luke warm or hot?" his hand rests on the tab.

"huh?" your head snaps over at him.

He chuckles "the bathwater"

"oh, uh hot" you nod.

"fitting" hyunjin grins, mumbling.

"Hm?" you lock eyes as you take off your coat and mimick hyunjin in dropping it to the ground.

"nothing" he giggles, walking over to you and wrapping his arms around your waist.

"take it off" he whispers against your lips, his fingers tugging at your shirt.

You comply and get rid of your clothes.

"Ooh" you sound as you step inside the big tub thats filled to the brim with bubbles.

"good?" hyunjin asks as he takes your hand to help you inside, he himself already sat down.

"great" you close your eyes as his arms envelope you from behind, leaning back against his chest.

“so what’d you think of seeing me play?” he whispers after a few minutes of comfortable silence.

“fishing for compliments are we?” you joke.

“ha ha” he murmurs against your neck, making goosebumps spread over your legs which doesn’t go unnoticed by him when his hand runs up your thigh.

“feels nice?” hyunjin runs his nose against the shell of your ear.

“hmh” you nod, closing your eyes when you feel his lips on his neck, tongue darting out to taste your skin.

“this?” he whispers, one of his large hands palming your breast, pinching your nipple as the other hand softly travels over your mound.

You open your eyes “hyunjin”

“hm?” he continues to kiss at your neck.

“wait a second, please” you say, moving from your spot from between his legs.

“whats going on?” hyunjin asks concernedly, reaching for your arm, urging you to stradde him.

“I just feel like I have to tell you this” you say, playing with his hair at the back of his head.

“what are you so nervous about baby” he huffs, smiling when you shake your head.

“I- I don’t know” you sigh, his hands soothing up your back.

“I” you exhale shakily “I’m a virgin”

“huh?” he blinks, his eyes threatening to pop out of his skull.

“I mean I- I didn’t know” he runs his hands down your arms to take your hands in his “but I really don’t care if that’s what you were scared of”

“well, kind of” you grow a little smaller out of embarrassment.

“hey” he chuckles, pulling you a little higher on his lap “you didn’t actually think I’d laugh at you or something, did you?” he gets more serious.

“I don’t know, you always called me ‘miss goody shoes’” you mumble, pushing some hair behind his ear.

“baby I was joking” he cups your face “you know just like little boys who pull the little girls pigtails because that’s the only way they know how to get their attention”

You scoff “you never actually pulled on my hair though”

“yea, cause I don’t know if you’re into that yet” he quips, your jaw going slack.

“you little sh-“ you slap his shoulder, the water sloshing and some bubbles flying into the air as hyunjins laughter fills the room.

“I’m kidding” he laughs, catching your hand in his.

“I’m kidding” he whispers again when leaning in to press his lips to yours.

“you are my good girl though” he whispers against your lips, your heart stuttering at his words and your core clenching.

He bites his lip as if he knows what effect he has on you, you part your lips to say something but instead of words coming out, a little whimper tumbles from your lips.

“cute” he giggles before slotting his lips against yours, a groan tearing from his throat when you suck at his lower lip.

His arms circling your waist to pull your chest flush against his warm one, a groan tears from his throat when you suck on his lower lip.

You loop your arms around his neck and angle your head to deepen the kiss, gasping a little when you feel his erection poke against you pubic bone.

“sorry” he smiles coyly, reaching down to adjust himself.

“don’t worry I don’t want to wait forever, you know i-“ you explain.

“hey, you don’t have to explain yourself to me, we’ll do whatever you want, I lo-“ he cuts himself off.

“you?” you repeat after him questioningly.

“I” he laughs “shit, uhm” his fingers draw circles on the skin of your hips.

"I've had a crush on you for like half a year now" he chuckles.

"huh?" you lock eyes.

"yea" he grins "remember when that one ravenclaw asshole called you a muggleblood and you let him have it six ways from sunday?" you giggle as you remember the incident.

"I got detention for that" you smile at him.

"yea but only because you turned his nose into a rhinos horn" he laughs with you.

“anyways, that’s when I was like… damn she’s cool as hell” he recalls, tucking a wet strand of your hair behind your hear.

“why did you never talk to me?” you ask, running your finger over his toned chest.

“I wanted to but you always seemed to avoid me and I didn’t want to annoy you” hyunjin closes his eyes, feigning regret.

“I had a crush on you so I was scared to be around you” you confess “but to be fair every girl in this grade has a crush on you” you roll your eyes playfully.

“well you’re the one in this bathtub with me right now” he grins, leaning forward to place a kiss on your collarbone.

You hum “yea I am”, when hyunjin licks at the base of your throat before gently sucking at the soft skin.

“wanna turn around again?” he cocks up one of his eyebrows.

“why?” you grin “so you can feel me up better?”

“exactly” he kisses your lips before you comply to his wish.

You lie your head back against his shoulder as he presses kisses to your temple, lifting one of your hands to caress the side of his face.

“how are these bubbles not dissolving?” you think out loud.

“magic” hyunjin whispers, kissing the skin under your ear.

You giggle when his hands move down your sides.

“can I touch you?” he asks quietly, kissing the slope of your neck.

“please” you mewl.

“you’re so perfect baby” hyunjin says, palming both of your breasts before moving one hand in between your legs, which you instinctively spread for him.

You can feel an amused puff of air against your neck “see? you are my good little girl”

Your stomach tightens in arousal when he brushes two fingers through your folds.

“aren’t you?” he mumbles against your skin after sucking a bruise onto your neck.

“yes” you moan when he draws circles over your clit.

“hyunjin” you whimper, the warmth in your core spreading into your limbs.

“I’ll make you feel good, baby” he rasps, his fingers picking up the pace.

You grab onto his bicep as you throw your head back, pleasure booming behind your lid as hyunjin suckles on your earlobe.

“fuck” you cry out.

“that’s it baby” he urges you on, rubbing at your sanity as you try not to fall into him completely.

“I’m close” you mutter, bucking your hips up to meet the friction of his fingers.

“come for me, babygirl” he whispers “I got you baby”

The knot in your stomach snaps and spikes of pleasure flood through your system as high pitched moans tear from your throat.

Hyunjin slows down his fingers when your legs start trembling and you gasp for air.

“good fucking girl” he chuckles, gently rubbing your folds before you hold his hand still, the overstimulation setting in.

“fuck” you groan before he tilts your head up to catch your lips with his.

Humming into the kiss before you break it, hyunjin bites his lip as he grins down at you.

You can feel the blood rushing through your face and quickly bury it in the crook of his neck; his throat vibrating with laughter.

“don’t go shy on me now, pretty girl” he mumbles, fingers dancing over your stomach.

“sorry” you giggle before looking up to kiss him again.

“don’t be sorry, you’re perfect” he kisses you back.

After getting out of the tub first and wrapping a towel around his hips, hyunjin helps you get out and wraps a towel around you and rubbing you dry vigorously.

“baby ow” you laugh and take the towel from him.

“sorry” he giggles, cradling your cheeks in his hands and pressing a wet smooch to your lips.

“eww” you laugh but he holds your face still in his hands “don’t ew your boyfriend”

You smile “apropos boyfriend”

“yea?” he releases your face, pushing some hair out of his face.

“I think I want to upgrade you from test trial boyfriend to real boyfriend” you say sheepishly, looking down.

“only if you’re up for it though, I don’t want you to leave me hanging-“

“yes” he interrupts you “I am up for it, like… super up for it” he steps even closer.

“really?” you ask as you wrap the large towel around your torso.

“yes!” he chuckles, kissing your cheek before moving to the other one before attacking your nose.

“okay! okay” you squeal.

“does that mean you’ll come to the game as my girlfriend and cheer me on and stuff?” he grins, wiggling his brows cutely.

“yes, yes I will” you promise before locking lips again.

Dependent

Maelgwnn had spent the last five years avoiding spending any significant amount of time with other sylvari; the only exception being Kaius, but that was more necessity than choice. While he absolutely despised the man, he was the only one who could make medicine strong enough to deal with his headaches. At least, that's what he told himself anyway.

He knew deep down that he kept Kaius in his life as a small way to help keep the memories of his sister alive. She had cared deeply for him when she was still alive, and as much as Mael had taken his anger out on him for allowing her to go off into the jungle, he couldn't completely hate him. If only because he knew his sister wouldn't have wanted that.

But that did not stop Kaius from being a complete pain in the ass every time he was forced to visit him.

The moment he had walked into Kaius's lab, the man was was pulling into a hug. It was his usual greeting for the pink sylvari, but he always hated it. "My dear, sweet Maelgwnn, it's been a while! I was beginning to miss seeing your lovely face walking through my door~"

Mael grimaced, attempting to maneuver he way out of Kaius's arm. "Must you always be so handsy with your greetings? It get old quickly."

Kaius hummed, his hands trailing down Mael's back to rest at his waist. A shiver ran down his spine at the touch, causing the grin on Kaius's face to spead. "I can't help how huggable you are, my dear. You have some of the best reactions."

Mael scoffed, escaping from Kaius's grasp and moving further into the room. "I don't know how my sister ever put up with you."

"Mostly from above," He placed a finger on his chin, a wistful smile adoring his features. "She was quite the dominant one."

"Add that to the list of things I didn't need to hear about your relationship," The pink sylvari plopped himself down in the plush chair he claimed as his own during his visits, a sigh of exhaustion escaping his lips. "I need a refill."

Kaius's brows knitted together, the playful look morphing into one of concern. "Already? But I gave you a months supply, it's barely been three weaks."

Maelgwnn leaned forward to rest his head in his hands. "It's not working as well as before. I spent a few hours with three of our kind today and it felt as if a nail was being driven into my skull. Even now I can feel a dull throbbing, and it's just you here."

"That is rather concerning, Mael," Kaius adjusted his glasses, moved to his lab table and pulled out a notebook. Maelgwnn's name was neatly labelled on the front cover; Mael remembered Kaius keeping a similar notebook for his sister after she was injured. Opening the book to a half filled page, he began jotting down notes. "You're obviously not taking them as I prescribed. You're becoming too dependent on the medication, so you're body is building up a tolerance to it."

"I wouldn't take more than I needed if it actually worked worth a damn," Mael let out a loud sigh, leaning back in his seat, a sad expression overtaking his face. "This was much...easier before."

Kaius stopped writing, the grip on his pen tightening for a moment before he placed it on his desk. Closing the notebook, he moved away from his labtable and took a seat in the chair across from Mael. Crossing his legs, he made himself comfortable. "I miss her too, you know, but you can't use medication to deal with this."

"I know, I just..." He brought a hand up to cover his eyes. "I... spoke about her today."

This took Kaius completely by surprise. Mael was not the type to open up to people, especially when his sister was involved."You did?"

He nodded, his hand never leaving the spot over his face; if he was crying, Kaius couldn't tell. "I met a set of podtwins. Their relationship reminded me of the one I had with her. I couldn't help but bring her up."

"It's good to talk about her, you know. It keeps her memory alive."

"I..."Mael's hand tighten on his face, his shoulders beginning to shake. "Sometimes I need more than just a memory."

Kaius's features softened and he stood from his chair. Walking over to Mael, he placed a comforting hand on the younger sylvari's shoulder. "Why don't you get some rest, my friend? I'll go make you some tea for your headache."

Maelgwnn was silent as Kaius left the room. The moment the door was closed, tears began to leak from under his hand.
