This is a crackfic idea but what would happen if their TTG or legi versions fucking ended up in their dimension?
Imagine them just seeing this tall gorgeous and breathtaking version of their y/n that usually tends to ignore or be mean to them and having this taller and more beautiful version of their y/n just coo and hold them close and treating them with so much affection and love and having her constantly call them adorable and pick them up (of u picked the Lego version of the batfamily, y/n places them on her shoulders) and carries them around while ignoring her version of the batfamily and basically forgetting about them cuz she's to busy with the TTG or Lego versions lol
(Lego or TTG version of Alfredo with her version of Alfredo teaming up to baby her hehe also imagine how annoyed dick would be seeing this small more loud and annoying version of himself when he was Robin clinging onto y/n while staring at her with hearts in his eyes and being a lovesick clingy baby or bruce and dick having beef with 2 Lego figures who are having the time of their lives staying on y/n's shoulders or in between her chest lmao)
-🦇
omg, a crackfic! That takes me back, I even wrote one for the Avengers and a little drabble or two for KHR! Being cringe can actually be so cathartic and good for mental health 🩵 I'm going with the lego version because Lego Robin was too adorable!!
Sorry to change the ask around a little, but I just imagine Lego Star loving Lego Dick because he's literal sunshine and worships her and there wasn't a haunting in the lego universe to effect anyone.
Lego Dick and our universe Dick are two different people and I can't imagine Lego Dick being manipulated by the haunting to turn on her even if there was one. It would get to the point that the malicious entities would be pissed and probably leave.
Lego Starling never suffered the injustices she faced in our time besides losing her mother and she's actually really close with Dick. She's discovered after Dick is adopted and she immediately fills in a big sister role for him because anyone can clock he's gullible and too good for this world. Dick introduces her as "The best big sister in the whole world❤️!" to everyone he meets and he's googly eyed for you. Lego dick is IMPOSSIBLE to hate besides his speedo
Lego Star accepts Bruce but doesn't really respect him. She finds him a little incompetent as a man/father and hates his over the top civilian persona, but understands why he does it. She tolerates him and he dotes on her like a dad who's wrapped around his daughter's finger. He doesn't know that she only respects and loves Alfred as her father figure but what he doesn't know won't hurt him~
"Woah, Y/n! Did you have a growth spurt!" Dick runs circles around you and pokes at your calves and grabs at your clothes. "You're like an Amazon! A beautiful, bloodthirsty Amazon!" He gushes while clutching his cheeks. He has to crane his neck so far back to see your face that he tilts over and lands flat on his back.
You look from the fallen "Dick Grayson?" to "Bruce Wayne" and "Alfred Pennyworth" with wide eyes and a slightly agape mouth.
You had simply been checking out an old generator in an abandoned factory on the outskirts of the city because you detected what felt like leyline energy from it. You had barely touched a dial when these three people (?) who bared a cartoonified resemblance to three men you knew came flying out of a portal.
"My baby..." A gravelly voice whimpered pathetically as a deep pout pulled at his lower lip. L!Bruce stared at you sadly and you could almost imagine tears forming in his beady black eyes. "She's all grown up!" His voice cracked and he turned around and threw himself into an expectant butler's arms.
Alfred patted Bruce's back and sighed in resignation, "We had always known this day would come, sir. I just didn't expect it to come so soon."
"Now. you're really my big sister!" Dick concluded and laughed at his joke. You knelt down and picked up the (creature?) Lego Dick and held him like a baby because you didn't know how else to do it. "Are you..." You started before pinching your brow, 'I'm going crazy.'
"Are you Dick Grayson?"
"Ding, ding, ding! A+ to my star pupil. Boop!" Dick reached up and booped your nose affectionately and you didn't hate it. It was actually very endearing.
You looked over at the Lego man being consoled by the older Lego man and sighed. "My honeybunch, sugar pie, pretty little princess..." The Lego man in a wine red smoking jacket and slippers wept into the older butler's arms and you were suddenly exhausted.
"And he's..."
"Our padre!" Dick chirped happily. You facecpalmed.
Naturally, you brought the three to the manor while you found a way for them to get back to their own world and they were loving it!
Can't say the same for everyone else, though.
You carried L!Dick around like a teddy bear and held him like he was a precious baby, and you even called him that! You spoiled him with affectionate nicknames and the hyperactive little nuisance soaked it all in with a bashful "teehee."
L!Dick was a combination of all Robins but was most similar to the idealized version of Dick Grayson cranked up to cartoonish proportions. He was sweet, friendly to a fault, hopeful, and wore his heart on his sleeve. To him, the whole universe revolved around his big sister and he greedily gulped down all of your attention.
Dick took that personally.
Why did he get to sit in your lap? Why did you always boop him on the nose? Why did you call him sickeningly sweet nicknames? What did the L!Dick have that he didn't? Was it because he was compact? Should Dick find a shrink machine and turn himself into a little Lego man too? Did he have to whip out his old Robin suit again?
He smiled kindly at L!Dick but visibly cringed at the little guy's antics that felt like an embarrassing reflection on him. Dick considered himself more patient than most, especially considering who adopted him, but L!Dick was pushing it.
The little bastard snuggled into your chest and twirled your hair. You dropped everything to spend time with him if he ever asked and you obliged to most of his requests. You'd let him get away with murder if he flashed his stupid googly eyes, and Dick couldn't handle this blatant favoritism. If you hated him, you should hate all versions of him!
You carried the Lego counterparts in your arms like they were precious babies and let L!Dick snuggle into your chest without a thought and Dick just knew that little turd was taking advantage because he would in his place. L!Dick sat in your lap, buried his face in your chest when a scary movie spooked him, slept in your bed, and even tried to take baths together!
Dick tosses L!Dick up to the roof thinking he'll get caught in the storm gutter just to find the gremlin snuggled up with you soon after. He locks L!Dick in pantries and closets, but the little guy appears in other places like Annabelle the haunted doll and it's lowkey scary.
L!Dick flaunts your relationship in Dick's face and even made a scrapbook for you to remember him by when he returns to his world. Dick wants to burn it as soon as possible.
L!Dick stays winning and Dick figures that toys can break and if L!Dick returns to his world in pieces then so be it.
You learn about your completely familial relationship with L!Bruce in the other world and you're noticeably softer towards him. You're definitely more patient with him than to your Bruce and anyone can see it. You actually talk to him and sometimes smile at his antics. He still takes himself too seriously but he's relatively free of the sins your Bruce has and it almost feels nice to have a father like him.
"Snuggle pumpkin!" He calls in that deep voice and you grin sarcastically as you pick L!Bruce up in a hug. You didn't mind the gooey pet names. It was kinda sweet coming from him.
If it wasn't for you, Bruce would've already dismembered L!Bruce and scattered his remains across multiple cities.
L!Bruce acted like he was this world's Batman and nearly took over the batcave and set himself up as the leader. With the tech and everything basically being the same in both worlds, L!Bruce knew the access codes and how everything worked and Bruce had to immediately shut things down and recalibrate before L!Bruce really took over. He'd never admit to Lego!Bruce being a threat, though. He'd die before he ever did.
L!Bruce criticizes every one of Bruce's orders and even. criticizes. his. parenting.
"What's up with that one?" L!Bruce points at Damian as if Damian doesn't understand he's being talked about. "Why do you have so many kids and why are they all messed up?"
Dick and Bruce have tried to fight their counterparts but they're so small and wiley that it's hard to get a hold of them and properly fight. The Lego Dick and Bruce always evade capture and land their own hits that hurt not only physically but also mentally.
"Sweetiepie, go out and get yourself something nice." L!Bruce holds out Bruce's card Bruce doesn't know how tf the thing got his card and tries to spoil you with everything he can. Afterall, Bruce's money is technically his money and he can use as much as he wants on his little princess.
You spend time with L!Bruce and he doesn't even have to blackmail you into it! You have lunch and chat with him, L!Dick, L!Alfred, and Alfred in your own little family lunches and he thinks he's in the twilight zone. Someone please wake him up.
"I don't like the way you look at my daughter." L!Bruce squints at Bruce and nearly hisses. He picked up something "off" about this world's Bruce and he didn't like it one bit.
"She's not your daughter, and you should mind your business while I'm being nice." Bruce glared back at L!Bruce, ready for a fight that would end it all.
Alfred and L!Alfred share memories of their own Starlings and exchange recipes. They've both given up on trying to rein in their respective Dick and Bruce and do just enough to keep someone from getting maimed.
L!Alfred loves you as much as his own Starling and Alfred won't tell him the extent of all you've gone through in this world. Maybe it's for the best because L!Alfred would probably try to convince you to come to his world or go to another to get away from this batfamily.
Damian wants L!Dick dead like yesterday. The moment L!Dick called you "sissy" or any other petname he knew that the Lego man had to die.
You've never been so touchy feely or affectionate with Damian and honestly he feels deep sadness more than envy or fury. What does he have to do to get some of that?

be my valentine? - barca boys
summary: how lamine yamal, pablo gavi, pedro gonzalez, pau cubarsi, and hector fort would ask you to be their valentine. masterlist warnings: suggestive.
You met when you were seven, while playing football out in the schoolyard on one of your first days at your new school in Tegueste, after moving from Lanzarote, another Canarian Island, the closest one to Spain. You were quite a good wee player, but were met with the ground after being tripped by another boy, who looked about your age. Your bottom lip had wobbled as you looked at your now-skinned hands. The boy, looking as guilty as if he’d killed you, crouched down in front of you.
“Lo siento mucho. Lo prometo, no fue mi intención. ¿Estás bien (i’m so sorry. i promise i didn’t mean to. are you okay)?” he had asked tentatively. You sniffed and nodded. Your eyes had gone back to his face, and he had spoken up again.
“Puedo besarlo mejor por ti. Eso es lo que hace mi mamá cada vez que me lastimo (i can kiss it better for you. that's what my mami does whenever i get hurt).” Almost immediately, you nodded once more and held your hands out to him. The boy had pressed a small kiss to each of your palms.
“¿Está todo mejor ahora (is it all better now)?” “En realidad no, pero duele menos. Quizás seas mágico (not really, but it hurts less. maybe you’re magic).”
“Tal vez (maybe),” he smiled and helped you up, “Soy Pedri. Bueno, Pedro, pero todos me dicen Pedri porque soy pequeño y el otro Pedro es grande (i'm pedri. well, pedro, but everyone calls me pedri because i'm little, and other pedro is big).” he introduced, gesturing to a much larger boy across the yard. “¿Cómo te llamas (what’s your name)?” Pedri asked as he helped you up from the floor. “Y/N. ¿Quieres que seamos amigos? Soy nuevo y no tengo ninguno (do you want to be friends? i'm new, and i don't have any).” He nodded and you guys wandered off, back towards the classroom, as the bell had gone.
And that’s how you met your boyfriend, best friend, and love of your life.
Having been there for each other through the highs and lows, you two are closer than anyone else either of you know. No longer seven and clueless, the pair of you are curled up in bed, the rain pouring outside, you reading, Pedri on his phone beside you. There was a peaceful silence, besides the sound of rain on the windows and the occasional paper sound coming from your book.
You turn the page and something falls out, sliding into your lap. Confused, you pick it up, what is it but a pressed white rose and a note? “Be my valentine?” you laugh and look up at Pedri, who’s watching you with a raised eyebrow, waiting. Grinning, you lean across the bed a little, connecting, before pulling away and murmuring against his lips, “Most certainly, I’ll be your Valentine. Considering you’ve been asking since we were 15, do you really even have to ask anymore.” “Yes, I do, because I know it makes you feel special, it makes me feel important, and it actually improves the general romantic-ness of our relationship,” he says firmly, but with a soft, signature Pedri smile.
“Woah, alright. And thank you, it’s very sweet.” you press another kiss to his lips, expecting just a peck, but very quickly, his tongue is in your mouth and you’ve been pulled to straddle his lap. “I have a few more Valentine’s gifts for you, don’t worry.” Pedri says with a smirk and hungry glint in his eye. You know you’re in for a long night, but aren’t at all mad about it.
You had been sitting in second-period Science, right before lunch, when one of the receptionists from the front office came into the classroom, asking you to pack up your things and come with her. Confused, you did so, trailing behind the older woman, back to the main office. Standing there in the office is a faux-distraught-looking Pau, claiming to be your cousin, needing to pick you up early as there’s been a family emergency. Behind her back, you cover your mouth to stifle a laugh.
A few minutes later, and you’re all signed out and walking out to the carpark with Pau. “You know, you can’t just pull me out of school whenever you want, right? Our ‘grandma’ can only die so many times.” you laugh. He just shrugs and intertwines his hand with yours. “Oh well. I’m taking you on a date.” “A date? At 11.45 in the morning?” “Sí. We’re having a picnic on the beach,” he announces proudly. “On the beach, huh? So all the sand can get in our food? Delightful.” you laugh, he whacks your arm.
“Calla, it’s meant to be romantic (shut up).” Pau teases back, unlocking his car and opening the passenger door for you. “Princesa.” You roll your eyes at the nickname. Most boyfriends would use it in a cute way, their “princesa,” but no, not your boyfriend. Pau just uses it to tease you. He makes a dramatic gesture of it, helping you in by taking your hand and everything. You keep forgetting he has free reign to drive you guys anywhere now. So maybe random Friday lunch dates after a long week will become a more regular occurrence.
The drive to the beach is fairly short, and most of the way there, you just give Pau the rundown on this week’s school gossip. It’s sunny and warm today, good weather for a picnic. Turns out, Pau’s version of a picnic is a salad and water for him, a sandwich and a lemonade for you, eaten on the tailgate of the car, however, to look out onto the beach while you eat, the car has to be reverse parked.
Pau is awful at reverse/parallel parking, and only just barely passed it on his test, so, while it is a little illegal, you always do it for him. It’s funny, you’re only studying, don’t even have your proper license, and can drive a lot better than him in many ways. Once the car is successfully parked, you both get out, opening the boot and sitting in it, cuddling close to each other.
You both sit in silence for a while, eating and drinking, until Pau randomly speaks up once more.
“You know how you left your phone at mine the other day?”
You suddenly feel a little nervous. “Yeah..?”
Pau grins. “Wanna explain why you have over 500 saved edits of me on TikTok?”
You’re quite tempted to die of embarrassment. Literally, mortified. He takes immense pleasure in your pink face.
“We can do it like that… if you want to.”
You almost don’t want to ask. “Do what like what?” “Do you want it from the back, with your face in the pillow so you can yell as loud as you want to?” He says with a suggestive smirk, quoting the audio of the most recent edit you’ve saved, knowing exactly what he’s doing.
“Shut up,” you mutter, slumping down further. But he doesn’t shut up. Doesn’t even think about it, and 20 minutes later, you find yourself topless, laying in the boot of the car, Pau having put the backseats down for a rather messy makeout, like the good, horny teenagers you are. He lays next to you, both of you breathless. For a good few moments, the only sound that is heard in the car is both of you panting. “You know, I actually brought us out here for the ‘romantic’ date to ask you to be my Valentine,” he says. “Really? Well, the answer is yes.” you chuckle breathily, sitting up.
“How am I meant to go back to school, looking live I’ve been mauled by a dog after going to ‘say goodbye to our grandma with my cousin.’?” casually, you laugh, but Pau’s face is far from amused. “No way in hell are you going back to school. We’re going straight to my bed, mi amor.” You giggle and he finally laughs too. “Alright. Maybe we should try your suggestion from earlier.”
His grin only grows.
You’ve been in a ‘talking stage’ with Lamine for the past two or three months. You had been friends as kids when he still lived in Rocafonda, you grew apart a little with age, but you’ve gotten closer again after starting high school.
You guys are in the same literature and mathematics classes, so you often give him notes or go to his place to help him with homework. He’s very sweet, he looks at you like you’re a beautiful girl, not some piece of meat, he’s always giving you little gifts and things too. You’ve gotten to know his mother better and met his little brother, Keyne. His papá seems to like you too on the few occasions you’ve met him.
Tonight, you’ve come over to help him with some of the literature homework. You’re laying on his bed, paper and books in front of you as you explain the concept it as best you can, when his mamá, Sheila, puts her head in the door, speaking to you with a warm, motherly smile.
“Hola, Y/N. ¿Te gustaría quedarte a cenar (would you like to stay for dinner)?” Lamine watches you intently, waiting for your reply, almost as if this was planned… although, you didn’t notice that. “Sí, Le enviaré un mensaje de texto a mi mamá y le preguntaré. Gracias señorita Ebana (yes, i’ll text my mamá and ask. thank you miss ebana).” you smile back. Sheila nods and leaves the room again, shutting the door.
You and Lamine go back to doing the homework, although he seems more nervous and less focused than before. “Are you alright?” you frown, noticing that he has been staring at your face and not the book for the past two minutes. He blinks and looks away, a little flushed. “Sí, sí, sorry. I just… zoned out.” You give him a sceptical look but nod. “Vale. Now, back to page 167 (okay)…”
The two of you continue reading and writing until Sheila comes back to say dinner’s ready. When you get to the table, Lamine makes sure to pull your chair out for you and hand you your plate first. Sheila giggles behind her hand as she watches her son, clearly in on something you’re not, so you’re confused for a moment, but then move on. The table is fairly quiet, aside from Keyne chattering away in his high chair. With no siblings at home, you find it very entertaining and help him with a few spoonfuls of the spiced and seasoned rice, watching and laughing at him as he goes. Sheila watches on with a smile, grinning at the secret plan Lamine had made with her, but also at you and Keyne interacting.
After dinner, you help to clear the table and do a few of the dishes with Sheila, Lamine watching on with love in his eyes from the living room floor as he half plays with Keyne, and half admires you and how well you and his mamá are getting on. Once the dishes are done, you go and sit next to Lamine on the floor again.
“You wanna keep going on the homework?” he asks. You nod and head back to his bedroom. He tells you that he needs the bathroom and that he’ll be in in a minute. When he reenters, you’re sitting on his bed, and he has his hands behind his back, holding something. You frown in confusion and laugh, watching him as he smiles back nervously at you. “What?” you laugh. Lamine takes a deep breath and moves his hands from behind his back. In one hand is a bouquet of long-stem red roses, and in the other, is a small, navy-blue, velvet box. Your eyebrows immediately rise in surprise and your eyes go from the roses to his anxious, but hopeful face. When you don’t immediately take them, he pushes them towards you a little more, you snap out of the haze that is those beautiful brown eyes of his and take the flowers and jewellery box.
You smile at him before opening the box, inside is one of the most beautiful necklaces you’ve ever seen. It’s (gold/silver) the colour he knows you prefer, a small iridescent opal pendant hanging from it. Inside the box, is also a small note.
“Be my valentine?” in Lamine’s signature neat, although slightly crooked, handwriting.
You laugh shakily and cover your mouth, staring at it for a second before putting the bouquet and necklace down on the bed and standing up to hug him. You rest your head on your shoulder, and whisper out your answer. “Yes, yes of course I’ll be your valentine.” he grins and tilts your head up. “¿Puedo besarte (can i kiss you)?” you nod, and a few moments later, those gorgeous plush lips of his are on yours. You pull away a few seconds later and laugh, still close, your forehead resting against his, looking into his eyes once more.
“Thank you,” he whispers.
“For what?” “Saying yes.” the taller boy smiles. You laugh, shaking your head slightly, “Of course I said yes. I’d be an idiot not to.”
Lamine pulls away and reaches for the box on the bed once more, he takes it out and gestures for you to turn it around. You feel the cool, delicate (gold/silver) on your neck and his fingers carefully doing up the clasp behind you.
That night, you have your first sleepover together, and cuddle in bed most of the night, deciding homework can wait until tomorrow.
You’ve never had a Valentine before. Yep, 20 years old and not a single Valentine. So it’s kind of crazy that you’re first ever one will be the Pablo Gavi.
You didn’t think he’d ask you, considering you were dating and it was probably just assumed, but alas, you arrived home from the grocery shopping to find a whole display of flowers, balloons and various other things on the dining room table, a proud Pablo standing next to it.
You laugh in shock, almost dropping the grocery bag in surprise. Instead, you deposit it onto the kitchen counter and go over to him. Grinning his usual wide smile, he wraps his arms around your waist and kisses you passionately for a good while, but when he gets distracted and his kisses start trailing down your neck, you laugh and pull away, bringing his head back up again. “Save that for later, amor.” He chuckles and presents the table to you properly. You take a closer look and there are multiple bottles of your favourite perfume and skincare products. There’s no makeup as always as Pablo refuses to buy it for you because he thinks you look even prettier without it. Dotted around are multiple bags, Dior, Mercadona, Victoria’s Secret (you can hardly imagine what he’s picked out from there), shoes, and a new dress, with flowers all around the place, and a big sign in the middle of the table.
“Will you be my Valentine?”
You laugh, just taking it all in. “What kind of question is that? Who else’s would I be?”
He shrugs and kisses you again. “Is that a yes then?” you roll your eyes and laugh for what feels like the millionth time.
“Of course, mi amor. Siempre, sí (forever, yes).”
Once more, that cheeky grin appears on his face. You squeak when you’re lifted up the waist, legs automatically wrapping around his waist. As he carries you past the table, he picks up the Victoria’s Secret bag, making a beeline for the bedroom.
Right now, you’re laying on your boyfriend of three years after yet another long day of uni. The silence had been comfortable as he gently scratched his fingers through your hair and kissed your forehead over and over again, in fact, you were almost asleep. But your half-dozed-off state is interrupted when Héctor speaks up.
“Can you look at my foot?” “What?” “My foot.” you just stare at him for a moment.
“Your foot?” you repeat, slower. He nods as if that was a perfectly normal request.
“Why exactly?” “Because it hurts and you’re training to become a physio.” After staring at him for a moment longer, you sigh and relent, moving to crouch at the end the chaise of the couch, pulling off his sock. “Do you not have professional physios for this?” “Yeah, but I like you better.” Inspecting his foot, you frown. “There’s nothing wrong with it.” “Yes, because it’s the other one.” You pull off his right sock instead, and your eyes widen.
“Héctor Fort García, what did you do?!” you gasp, glancing up to his face, which had the biggest grin on it. On the inside of his right foot, are your initials and birthday, as well as your anniversary date, all written in your handwriting.
“Got another tattoo.” “I can see that. Why that, and why there?”
“Because that’s the foot I score goals with. So now, every goal I score, every pass, every tackle, every run, is dedicated to you, like you’re there helping me kick, in thought, of course.”
You watch him in surprise for a moment before laughing in disbelief and coming back up to kiss him and give him a hug.
“Estás loco (you’re crazy).”
“Sólo para ti, mi amor (only for you, my love).” he laughs back, pressing yet another kiss to your nose.
You lay together in silence for a moment, before Héctor speaks up again.
“If you couldn’t tell, this was a very long way of asking you to be my Valentine?”
“Yeah, alright.” you laugh. You two are always laughing when you’re together, because there’s always something to laugh about. Whether it be Héctor messing up an English word, or you spilling something all over yourself, you both find humour in everything.
“Just, ‘alright’?” he sniggers, shoving you a little.
“What would you prefer I say then, hm?”
“How about a ‘Yes, please, dear boyfriend that just got my name and birthday permanently tattooed on his body.’?” “Mmmm… I think I’ll stick with ‘Yeah, alright.’” you tease, which earns his fingers under your arms, tickling you until you slide off the couch and are crying tears of laughter.
a/n: i wanted to do one for marc, but it was last and i genuinely had no ideas 😭 so i'd be happy to add it later if anyone has some requests or suggestions?

Summary: The quiet guy in your discord server decides to chat you up in the general vc, and as expected, has a lot more to unpack than you ever expected.
Notes: I was lazy and just posted the ugly default AO3 link when I first posted this, so I'm coming back and making it look nicer with new and improved tags lol
This piece doesn't specify who is really behind the mask, so whoever you want is up to you~
I had fun with this and left light references to the movies, Dead By Daylight, and Mortal Kombat to honor some of my favorite appearances of him-- hopefully it doesn't ruin the immersion lol
I don't usually leave notes, but it's been a while and I've adored all the comments and kudos I've gotten in my absence, cause at the end of the day, that's what will always bring me back. I love all your support and time reading this and hopefully I have more soon to come for you all!
Thank you again so much for reading, and I hope you enjoy! 🔪💕✨️
AO3 Link
This had become the nightly habit: get off work, make dinner, chill with the lads in a Discord call until bedtime. Mindlessly playing a game, you weren't surprised by the sound of someone joining the call, however you were surprised by who it was. He was a rando that had joined a while back, was nice enough, but didn't have much to say as he relegated himself to really only short replies or emoji reactions. You could have sworn he posted a thirst trap without his face in the #selfies channel, but you weren't 100% sure. When he would join calls he would always stay muted, opting to reply in the text chat or not at all, merely listening to and enjoying just being around the good times happening. All the same, you felt it rude to not say at least a little hello.
“Hey! How’re you doin’ tonight?”
“Hey there~”
The voice on the other side was low, having a bit of a flirtatious twang in the sigh of his greeting. Your heart skipped a beat, you weren't sure if he had ever spoken to you, much less anyone else in the server. And if you were being honest, he sounded kind of hot. Letting the giddy feeling ride, you tried to keep him talking since it was just the two of you.
“Woah–” You poked cheekily, “I dunno if I've heard you say anything before.”
“I'm more of a one-on-one kind of guy,” He offered smoothly, “But I enjoy listening to everyone having a good time.”
“Fair–”
The air fell dead as you wondered what to talk about next, letting him cut into the silence with a question, “So.. what's your favorite scary movie?”
Having just finished a server horror movie night not too long ago, the question felt like a natural segway into your interests, “Hmmnn that's actually a good question– I think if we're just talkin’ horror in general my first and favorite would have to be Silence Of The Lambs. The back and forth relationship between Clarice and Dr. Lecter was probably one of the most challenging to my mind at the ripe age of twelve, since then I've loved horror that has a female protagonist that is put under pressure by the killer to make difficult choices and solve the puzzle he left for her.
“But– that's not to say pieces like Substance or Midsommer aren't incredible mentally challenging works of art to me, I love both, along with movies like The Empty Man, Smile, It Follows, The VVitch, The Void, V/H/S–”
He cut your train with a light chuckle, “I definitely want to know which you thought was better, Smile or It Follows, but I meant to ask, what’s your favorite slasher movie?”
You gave this one a lot more consideration as your heart swelled with a damning excitement at the thought of your favorite killers, “That's such a hard choice! Of course Micheal Myers from <i>Halloween</i> is like everyone's big daddy– but I think if I had to choose it would have to be Stab! Ghostface is just a lot more fun, playful, and let's be honest– horny.”
“Oh yeah?” He hummed, “Why's that?”
How his tone seemed to curl at the end of his words made your chest tighten and a heat rise to your cheeks, “I mean, at the heart of it.. the voice actor responsible for his voice changer in the movie said that his tone is flirtatious, beyond that– between the fact that the first Ghostface seemed to get off on the idea of causing his object of obsession, Sidney, the most pain possible by the mocking of her mother being the town bicycle and it's even pointed to at the end of the movie that the two who were behind the Ghostface killings were the same two that brutalized Sidney's mother–”
“Goddamn–” Nearly groaning his words as he cut you off, he cleared his throat and pressed, “Good girl~ You sure do know your stuff.” Praising you with words that melted like chocolate over your tongue, your mind tilted at his words, ‘Good girl’.
Good girl?!
“Excu–”
“I fuckin’ love girls like you–” He went on, swearing you could hear the ache of him through the call, “Your type always knows how really appreciate us..”
‘Us’?
Before you could get a word in, he went on, “Buuut it looks like that's my cue– I hope you're ready for some fun this evening.” Leaving the conversation with the disconnect sound chiming through your ears in silence to process what just happened.
The sound of him leaving the call let a wash of relief run over you, only lasting for a moment as the floor creaking caught your attention with arms wrapping you in a winding embrace. Having your arms pinned at your sides, your hands flailed looking for any sort of way out. Only, the way your grip seemed to find his length caged behind his pants before skirting over to the long hunting knife strapped to his leg, making your struggle against him stop with a gasp.
“Yeah.. that's all for you Babe, whatever you need– so.. let's behave.. alright..?” The same voice that was lingering in your headset only moments ago was in high definition against your back.
Firmly pressing his hand over your mouth, you froze as someone else joined the empty call with you, “Hey you there?”
Your headphones loud enough for him to hear, an uneasy pause passed between you two as his hold over your lips lessened, “Yeah-” He let you breathe through his nitrile gloved fingers.
“Good, kinda glad he's gone, he's chill and all, but it kinda bugs me that he's just in here just dead-ass silent all the time. Fuckin’ weird.”
Looking over your shoulder a bit to get any sort of a look at him, you were only met with the deep black drooping eyes framed by a gasping bone white mask. Familiarity of the visage made your heart drop into your stomach, forcing you to chew on the harsh fact that that same familiarity you knew to fear, also brought the flutter of butterflies in with it.
A rough bump of his hips to your back-end snapped you out of your own mind and made you bark out, “Uh– Same– he is kinda weird, I've– talked to him a little bit and he just– seems like a bit of a creep..”
“Oooh shit whaddaya mean?”
He peered over your shoulder to look at you, curious to see how you would pull this along as his other hand pushed at the elastic of your pajama bottoms, “He uh– waited for everyone to leave– and then started hella chatting me up–”
“Are you good? It sounds like you're doing something.”
Eyeing him, the slight nod of his head coaxed you to keep talking while his fingers made their home in exploring your heat, “Yeah I'm fine– I think I pulled a muscle and I–”
“Oh shit– sorry, one sec– groceries are here, I'll be back in a minute!”
At the sound of her disconnection he lifted you up with a near effortless toss onto the bed, wasting no time crawling on top of you to get at what little clothing was left with his blade. Watching the fabric dance away from your frame, he gripped your wrist as you tried to switch your mic off.
“Go on.. stay in that call.. let ‘em all know what a stagy little whore you are.” He pushed, lifting the hem of his hoodie above the glimmer of the silver button hiding his length behind the black denim.
No time was wasted getting into you, making himself at home between your legs with a few rough thrusts and shivering grunts that made your mind twist. Squirming under him the grit falling off his boots into your blankets made you buck against him in frustration, earning a low sigh from him as his beat picked up.
“Mmn if you keep fighting me.. I'll gut you like a fucking pig.” Groaning into your ear, the delicate touch of his knife teased itself between your breasts.
Defiance sparked in you to bite back, “If we're– oh god– following the rules, you'll just do it anyway–”
The blade pulled its edge against your skin, splitting you like a ripe peach under its cut, “True.. but the killer's favorite little slut never dies.. she's gotta make it to the sequel, the trilogy, hell! Maybe a whole fuckin’ saga..”
Suddenly ringing in your ear the sound of the bluetooth assistant chimed,
Battery Low.. Please Charge Soon.
You held your lips tight as the length of him pushed to the hilt over and over, letting the air in the call stay dead as your friend and others passed through, thinking you were away from your keyboard.
“What’s wrong? Suddenly have nothing to say? I thought you liked the idea of being yanked around by a big man with a knife? Little different than on the big screen, ain't it Babe?”
You could practically hear him purring behind the mask, his pace slowing to deep grind as you felt the rub of his metal pants zipper dig into your skin like a threat.
“Mmmm– remember a couple weeks back– we were all watching that scary movie– when you wouldn't shut the fuck up about how you wanted to ride that slashers cock like a carnival ride– fuck you don't know what that did to me– hearing you get all giddy about bouncing on dick after a kill– goddamn you don't have a fuckin’ clue– how bad I wanted bust through that fuckin’ window and tear you apart–”
Gripping his palm across your eyes to pin your head to the bed, the unrelenting barrage of what came was less of a kiss and more of a hostile takeover of your senses. You couldn't tell how long you were left to his devices, using you with the excitement of a new sex doll he'd been waiting months for. The fight in you began to fade with the swipe of your tongue to his, earning the zeal of him rutting into you harder.
“See.. I knew you'd love it..”
Battery Low.. Please Charge Soon.
Dipping down to your chest to kiss the fresh wound that lay spilling blood around your breasts, taking in the heavy scent of your rubies like a jewel thief making his biggest heist. Slipping his free hand over your chest to the slick of your nipple made you gasp as a perfect distraction before pulling his mask back down. Adorning his usual visage now laid a smeared print of your life in blinding crimson, letting that be the first and only thing you saw as he let you have your vision back in the darkness. Against the blur of your eyes readjusting from the pressure of his weight on them, the dip of his frame dropping against yours with his hands gripping the sides of your head in a vice made you dizzy with a feral beat between your legs. Throughout his treatment you didn't feel that familiar latex rub of a barrier between you, forcing your stomach into a twist as his panting behind the mask got heavier.
The first grace of the evening came when you finally heard the powering down beeping of your headset giving its last bit of juice before cutting out. Unbound by the fear of being heard, your voice let out a moan that vibrated the silence of the dead air room. Relaxing a little under him, he pushed your rear up, angling himself better to pump deep before running his fingers over the tacky blood joining the fresh on your chest in a macabre mess. Having the dig of his fingertips into the open wound weeping from you was a new kind of violation before he breathed out a shaken manic pleasure from the mask that captivated you.
“Oh fuck– I'm going to smear your blood over my every fucking pore!” The bubbling frenzy in his tone gave away his devouring bliss as it promised to swallow you whole.
Honestly, you weren't long for the session either way as he found just the right spot to rub his tip into the soft warmth of you hugging his length and perfect grind of his mound against your bud aching to come undone. Seeing him watch you in those last moments before you went over the edge was enough to send you there as you trembled and cried out under his grip. Moaning and reaching to touch him in any way you could, you couldn't get enough of him as your body craved the closeness it needed. Expecting swift punishment for the affection, he surprised you by taking your hand in his, slowing his pace. Lacing your fingers as one, the gentle caress of his thumb to your skin had your rose colored glasses as red as they could be. Watching with a affectionately hazed gaze while he pinned you down, your skin when cold as his words dripped from his lips like sweet poison:
“You think you're getting away that easy? I'm just gonna cum and that be that? No.. I prepared for this all day. You're not goin’ fucking anywhere.”

What Would Karma Do... when a cruel teacher attacks your class?
navi - masterlist
Karma Akabane x Reader
Mood Song: judas
Summary: Remember the beloved Assassination Classroom anime? This is pretty much that, except you enter the picture of Karma's chaotic school year. Let's see just how compatible the two of you are.
Warnings: depictions of violence, cursing, karma being a psycho (when is he not tho), angst with a tooth rotting sweet ending :3
"Woah! Is that..."
"I..It's cake!"
"Hand made eclairs too!
That was just a few of the many comments from your classmates as you all ogled over the picnic blanket full of sweet treats from all around the world.
Most of the time your P.E. classes consisted of intense training regimens or one-on-one combat lessons with Karasuma, but today played out so much differently than any class before.
Though even with this bizarre change, you couldn't say you were upset. Today had already started rough when you learned Karma was skipping class all day, even though you begged him not to...
"Karma.. staying up late.. isn't an.. excuse for you to.. ditch.. classes!" You whined in between kisses that were surely meant to shut you up.
Karma simply rolled his eyes before pinching your nose and smirking lazily.
"You're the one keeping me up so late angel~"
Pinching your lips together into that adorable pout he loved, you smacked his hand away and narrowed your eyes down at him, "Yeah but I'm still going to class tomorrow."
Karma let out a low growl at this, flipping you over so that he was on top of you now. He tried nearly every tactic he could to convince you to ditch school with him, but even he should’ve known nothing could stand between your academic resolve.
So since your little rascal decided to truly ditch as he promised, you couldn't help but smile for the first time all day upon seeing the lovely treats before you. There were even a few custom treats from back home that you recognized.
"T..These look sorta pricey sir, are you sure?" Isogai questioned nervously, seeming to be the only student that hadn't fallen under the trance of the sweet assortments.
The new P.E. teacher simply boomed with laughter, offering a warm smile to the class.
"Yeah! Chow down kiddos!" The teacher spoke with a large grin, "I didn't break the bank so we could stare at these babies all day!"
"You really know your way around branded sweets dontcha?" Yada spoke with a grin.
Your new teacher simply smiled before closing his eyes,
"Trust me when it comes to the good stuff.. it's love~"
All of the students were in awe at such a generous and kind teacher, not that Karasuma was mean or anything, but this was not your typical day in the Assassination Classroom.
"So you're gonna take over P.E. to help Mr. Karasuma get caught up?" Nagisa questioned, though his eyes were still glued to the chocolate eclair in his hands.
"Yup! Those are my marching orders!" The teacher declared as he looked back at the blue haired boy, "Poor guy needs some time to himself."
The students all seemed to smile at that. Admittedly it felt like Karasuma was running a one man show over here. Sure Korosensei and Professor Jelavic were around, but most of the time it felt like Karasuma was even babysitting them too.
"Wow these treats are truly amazing, thank you so much-" You began, only to be interrupted by a pink blob quite literally drooling over your new P.E teacher's shoulder.
"Ah! This fellow must be Korosensei!" Your teacher exclaimed excitedly, not even minding the literal drool dripping down his shoulder, "Please help yourself!"
Those words seemed to be the final string holding your teacher back as he wildly dug into the treats on the blanket.
"You know sir, being colleagues, you and Mr. Karasuma are night and day." Kimura spoke with a tilted head, Hara joining in with a smile,
"He's nice to us and all but you're like the neighborhood dad!"
The teacher's eyes seemed to light up at that as he let out another booming laugh before dragging you all into his arms with a tight hug.
"Dad.. I like the sound of that!"
All of your classmates seemed to laugh in unison, everyone enjoying the warm embrace and not seeming to worry about the strangely kind personality the teacher had.
-
"Alright everybody here?" Your teacher spoke with a smile, standing before your classmates ready for class.
"Now things are going to be tougher than usual but stick it out like the champs I know you are and we're talking more sweets!" Mr. Takaoka spoke with a grin.
"For us? Or are you really just saving them for yourself?" Nakamura sneered.
"Nope nope..." Mr. Takaoka said with a sheepish smile as he stuck his tongue out and patted his large tummy, "Don't wanna ruin this girlish figure!"
With that the class howled into laughter. This guy was almost too good to be true. Plenty generous, good sense of humor, a true care for the craft he's teaching. He really was like a big old papa bear.
Looking around you noticed your classmates seemed happy enough, nobody was ever really smiling during P.E. class, rather panting and trying to catch their breath. Maybe this would be a good change for you guys?
"Okay then, along with your new training regimen comes a new schedule!"
You along with the rest of your students looked up to the colorful paper your teacher was holding up before raising a brow as he began to hand them out.
The schedule before you was.. chaotic to say the least.
Almost every period was P.E. class, many of your academic electives now switched to training. Along with that instead of your normal school day length, the training went on until nine o'clock at night!
Looking up with wide eyes you noticed your classmates all looking around with the same bewildered faces. Maybe he was just joking around with you again?
"We have ten periods now?!"
"We train till nine pm?"
Your classmates all threw thirty different questions at the man who stood before you, his smile never faltering as everyone expressed their concerns about the new schedule.
"That's the idea, little grasshoppers!" Your teacher exclaimed with a smile, his joyful personality contrasting with the reality of the situation, "Don't be glum, think of the payoff! This curriculum will turn you into lean, mean, killing machines-"
"Wait hold up hold up, this is ridiculous!" Maehara interrupted, Mr. Takaoka's smile faltering, "First off this is school, we gotta think about grades too."
Mr. Takaoka simply smiled sheepishly while scratching the back of his head. Maybe this guy was just so hardcore he forgot you guys actually had to take academic classes.
"I mean come on we can't go by this! We're supposed to stu-"
The boy's words were cut off when the teacher placed a gentle palm on the top of his head. Everyone seemed to raise a brow until he lifted his knee up and slammed Maehara's chin down onto his knee with a painful crack.
The entire class gasped, your hand flying to your mouth as you backed up on your knees. Was this some sort of sick joke? Did he and Maehara practice this skit? The way his practically lifeless form dropped to the ground really didn't make it seem that way.
"Rule number one, we don't do can't." Mr. Takaoka spoke in a dark voice, his smile still spread across his lips proudly as he watched the boy twitch on the ground in pain.
"Rule number two, we are a family and I'm the dad," He continued to speak, his continuous use of the word "dad" suddenly backfiring on all of you, "Show me a family where dad ain't in charge and I'll show you a family in crisis."
The man began to lecture you all, ominous smile still spread across his face as he walked around your group with his hands expectantly behind his back.
"A father loves each of his children unconditionally, the thought of even losing one of ‘em breaks his heart. We're gonna save the world kids, and we're gonna do it as a family." Mr. Takaoka finished, gathering Mimura and Kanzaki in his arms.
All of you seemed to flinch when he did this, especially your two classmates in his embrace. The sight of both of their cringing faces made you feel hot inside, not in the good way.
"I.. Actually sir, to tell you the truth.." Kanzaki spoke nervously, tugging herself out of his embrace and standing up with her arms nervously clamped together, "I'm not much for P.E. If I have to do it, I much prefer Mr. Karasuma's class!"
You couldn't help but smile at Kanzaki. Even in such a tense situation she always made sure to remain polite and cheerful as she smiled up to the aggressive teacher.
But as soon as you saw Mr. Takaoka lick his lip you knew this wouldn't end well.
Without hesitation he smacked his hand across her face so hard she flew backwards and rolled against the dirt with a cry.
"Kanzaki!" Your classmates cried as a few rushed over to her trembling figure.
"Looks like we're having a bit of a communication gap!" Mr. Takaoka said with that same dreadfully cheerful smile. The sight made your fists clench, Nagisa already seeming to notice the gears in your head turning as he placed a gentle palm on your wrist.
"The only answer here is yes-"
"NO!"
Your sudden shout caused the teacher to pause, his head tilting as a sadistic smile formed on his lips.
"Oh?"
"You can't keep hurting our classmates just because we don't do what you say. You aren't our real teacher and your training regimen is borderline insane! How are we supposed to pass our exams with your foot up our ass till the late night hours?"
Your teacher simply chuckled as he looked at you with wide crazed eyes through his hooded expression.
"Bothers you that much little grasshopper? Come show me what you're gonna do about it then!"
Letting out an annoyed growl you got low, ready to pounce until Nagisa grabbed your wrist more firmly this time.
"Y/n don't bother, he's going to seriously hurt you! This guy clearly isn't a regular gym coach."
Ignoring what he said, all you could do was glare into this man's beady little eyes that only fueled your fire.
"Let go, Nagisa." You hissed before snatching your wrist out of his grasp and darting forward.
Nagisa along with the rest of your classmates watched nervously. As sweet as you were, some of Karma's reckless traits were really starting to rub off on you. Ever since you all had gotten kidnapped, you swore you would get stronger so you could protect everyone, but of course that didn't stop the class from worrying.
Darting forward you blocked his first swing, quickly maneuvering your footing so that you spun behind him, forming your palm to be firm and flat before chopping your hand on the back of his neck right where the pressure point is.
After watching Nagisa and Karma train together, and even getting to train a little bit with them whenever Karma would finally give in to your whining, you learned a few tricks from both of them.
Nagisa was definitely a defensive fighter, more so focused on strategic attacks and blocking. Karma was a hands on offensive attacker, he wasted no time to give the opponent a moment to think.
Finally it seemed like your training had paid off as Mr. Takaoka let out a shout of pain as he stumbled forward onto his hands and knees, your strike seeming to make his vision blur.
"Nice hit Y/n!" Nakumura shouted, your classmates all cheering for you as you wiped a blade of sweat from your forehead.
"It's just like Karma taught me, it's not about the power of your strike but the precision!" You said with a smile, giving the gym teacher one last glance.
A small part of you felt giddy about the experience as you began to rehearse in your head how you would brag to Karma about taking down a grown man. Finally your training was beginning to pay off.
As you began to walk back to your cheerful classmates you felt life almost go into slow motion when you saw Nagisa's smile begin to drop, his eyes widened as he screamed your name and pointed behind you.
Before you could even turn your head back a quarter of the way you felt a strong grip on the back of your ponytail causing you to yell out in pain when the hand tugged you backwards.
"Not so fast you smug bitch." Mr. Takaoka growled with a psychotic smile as he swung his leg up and over your body before cracking it down on your abdomen hard.
The feeling alone had the breath knocked out of you before you could even hit the ground. You let out a sharp scream until your back hit the ground so hard you bounced up from the sheer force, a garbled choke escaping your lips before you officially fell to the ground.
"Y/n!" Your class shouted, Nagisa already sliding on his knees towards you as you struggled for air, loud chokes and gasps filling the air while you shriveled up holding your abdomen in pain. The lack of air wouldn't even allow you to cry as you felt your vision grow blurry.
Nagisa quickly lifted your shirt just enough to see a dark purple bruise forming across your skin, the feeling of something warm and wet being coughed up onto his hand that was keeping you upright.
His eyes widened at the sight of blood, his eyes frantically looking down at you as more of your classmates began to try and help you up.
How had your cheerful P.E. class turned into a bloodbath?
-
Karma continued to huff out profanities as he shuffled up the dirt hill, hands shoved deep in his pockets as a scowl formed on his lips.
"Dumb angel, always making me feel so damn guilty..." Karma mumbled as he kicked a few stones on the way.
It was weird, before he met you he never really cared about anything when it came to academics. He wasn't even depressed or stupid or even lazy, he just didn't quite care.
Where was school going to get him anyway? Graduate next year and go to college to take the same brainwashing classes he's taken since he learned to walk? To get a piece of paper that says congrats, now you can make money!
It was all ridiculous to him.
But ever since your stupid adorable ass showed up into his life, he saw things differently.
He wanted to have goals in life just to impress you, he wanted to go to college wherever you were going so you could grow together. He wanted to see the world with you, always be at your side so he would never lose you.
He could see it now, both of you finally done with all this school bullshit and sitting along the edge of a cliff that overlooked a vast blue sea as the sun would set along the dazzling colorful sky.
You would be sitting in between his crossed legs as he held you in a tight warm embrace.
"I love you Karma." You would whisper ever so gently from those sweet lips of yours as you tilted your head back so your sparkling hues could stare into his own.
Karma would smile down to you, watching as the ocean breeze danced through both of your locks as he placed a gentle kiss on your forehead.
"I love you too Y/n." Karma whispered aloud, the sound of his own voice snapping him back to reality as he let out a growl and shook his head.
You were like a demon haunting his mind except quite the opposite, more like an angel from heaven always clouding his mind in the best way possible. You truly were going to be the death of him.
Once finally making it up the hill, Karma came up with the excuse that he forgot his textbook for when his classmates would surely ask why he decided to show up halfway through the day. He would never admit it was just so he could see your pretty face before the day's end.
As he shuffled up the steps lazily he raised a brow when he saw a few students outside, crowded around Mr. Karasuma and some other large man that seemed to be smiling a bit crazy.
Raising a brow he shrugged with a smirk, assuming they were doing some strange training routine.
Sliding the wood door open he walked down the hallway until he saw class 3-E and slid the door open, awaiting to see the rest of his classmates studying silently, only to find the room completely empty.
Freezing he narrowed his eyes around the room, something wasn't right.
There were only about half of his classmates outside training, you not being one of them, where could the rest of you have been? It's not like they split the boys and girls up, he saw a mix of them all outside.
Shutting the classroom door, he decided to make his way back outside until he heard a voice come from down the hall.
"Y/n you have got to stop being so reckless, it's going to get you killed one day!"
The very sentence froze Karma in his tracks, his ears perking up at the sound of your name.
Your weak cough filled the air sending chills down his spine as you spoke up.
"But I..I didn’t die, did I? I had to do something, he was going to hurt all of our classmates!"
The redhead slowly turned his head around with grit teeth, his eyes falling on the door where all the sound was coming from, only to see it was the nurses office.
Karma was praying for his sake and your sake that you just played some crazy prank on someone and that you didn't actually do something reckless. But knowing you, he was sure that wasn't the case.
"So you thought it would be better if he hurt you?" A voice spoke up, "You know Karma's going to kill you for this."
Crescent shaped moons began to form into the redhead’s palms as the very thing he worried about had been confirmed, someone hurt you. Quickly he began to storm down the hallway, ready to slide the door open before he heard your pathetic voice.
"Well I didn't plan on him crushing my spleen," You spoke out stubbornly with another cough, Karma's vision slowly starting to turn red with anger, "Besides, Karma skipped today so Karma will never find out about this. Got it?"
At this Karma froze as a sadistic smile quirked upon his lips, you sneaky little fox.
Putting on the most neutral face he could even amongst his slow boiling anger, he slid the door open causing everyone in the room to jump. His first sight was you, Maehara, and Kanzaki all laying down on the nurse tables. Sugino, Okuda, and Yada were also in the room which must have been the people talking.
"Oh Y/n dearest, am I interrupting something? Sorry I was late for class, just slept through my alarm!" Karma said in a gentle tone, sticking his tongue out to appear innocent.
The sight of your red headed boyfriend caused you to shriek as you forced yourself off of the bed with a grunt. Once you realized standing wasn't quite an option, you leaned on the side of the table, trying to appear as casual as possible. All that silenced your pained whimper was the harsh bite you held on your tongue while you forced a smile.
"K..Karma! I thought uh.. I thought you were skipping today!" You spoke cheekily, though it was clear to everyone how heavy you were breathing. Sugino looked at you nervously to make sure you didn't collapse on the floor as everyone else in the room felt the awkward tension.
Karma smirked down to you, though it wasn’t his signature cocky one, but rather a menacing one as he sauntered over to you.
"Oh you know, I wouldn't want to miss any lessons would I?" Karma spoke darkly, though he kept that same cheerful smile on his face, "Besides I couldn’t possibly make it through the day without a hug from my sweet angel.”
The sound of that caused your eyes to widen, quickly backing up the best you could as he neared you.
"Oh really? I don't know uh.. I'm not quite feeling a hug right now… I'm actually kind of hot!" You exclaimed, your classmates nervously watching as Karma neared you while you ran out of space to back into, "You don't wanna hug all my icky sweat d..do you?"
"Oh, I think I do." Karma growled, forcing his arms around you gently.
Sure enough as soon as he made even the gentlest of contact, you let out a cry as your knees buckled beneath you, Karma quickly caught you before lifting you up on the bed once more.
"Fuck Y/n, do you think I’m an idiot?” Karma growled, grabbing both of your fighting wrists that were trying to push his hands away with one hand, while lifting your shirt up with the other.
Though Karma knew you were injured, he never in a million years expected to see the wound that was displayed across your abdomen. A large maroon bruise stretched from either side of your stomach, the color getting darker at the center.
The redhead let go of your wrists so as not to hurt you any further, deciding to instead grip the edge of the metal bed, the sound of the cool material bending sending chills through your body.
"Who did this?" Karma growled, looking up at you through rageful hooded eyes.
Swallowing nervously you quickly placed both of your hands on either side of his shoulders, remembering how violent he got last time you got kidnapped, he couldn't have you killing your actual teacher, he would surely get expelled.
"Karma calm down, it's seriously not as bad as it looks I promise-"
The sound of his fist slamming down on the table beside you caused you to jump with a small yelp, his pupils narrowed to slits as he angrily glared at you.
"Damnit Y/n, stop trying to be the hero and tell me who did this! It looks like they crushed one of your fucking organs!"
"They made her cough up blood too." Yada spoke from over your shoulder, your head quickly whipping back to glare at her as her comment only fueled your boyfriend's raging mood.
Inhaling sharply, Karma tried to calm himself down so as not to yell at you before looking at you once more.
"Y/n, tell me who did this to you."
Biting at the corner of your lip you let out a defeated sigh and looked away sheepishly.
"We got a new P.E. teacher today, Mr. Takaoka, and he seemed really nice and cheerful... he even brought us treats!" You exclaimed trying to defend your reasoning, "B..But then when he showed us our new training schedules he took out all of our academic classes and was going to make us stay till nine pm everyday."
The sound of that made Karma raise his brow briefly, even to him that made no sense.
"So a few classmates expressed that to him, Maehara and Kanzaki..." You said softly, Karma just now noticing his two other injured classmates that only made him angrier, "But he lashed out and attacked them brutally… He was going to hurt every last one of them if I didn't step in, I swear I wasn't being reckless Karma I just…"
Karma's stern expression broke for a second when he heard you choke over words, you looked down before looking back up with glossy eyes once more.
"I couldn't just stand by again!"
The redhead flinched slightly at this, flashbacks to your conversation after you had gotten kidnapped flooding back to him. Of course you weren't being an idiot like him, you just wanted to protect your friends.
The redhead looked up to the ceiling in a poor attempt to hide the insane rage in his eyes, a ragged sigh escaping his lips before he looked down at you softly, his thumb gently rubbing against your thigh.
"So what you're saying is I need to put an old fuck in his place then, yeah?"
Your eyes widened at this as you watched him stroll out of the nurse's office, you quickly tried to follow after him but not before falling into Okuda's arms.
"Y/n you really shouldn't move..." Okuda said softly as you wrapped your arm around her shoulder.
Looking down at the gentle girl pleadingly, you glanced back at the door, "Okuda please, Karma can't fight that guy, he's going to get hurt!"
Okuda bit her lip before looking at her other classmates that shared worried looks.
"Let's all go out together so we can at least warn Mr. Karasuma and Korosensei."
-
Karma being "mad" was an understatement.
Admittedly he did snap at you which he certainly didn't mean to, but now he was angry for a different reason.
Like hell was some old fashioned pig of a man going to throw his classmates around. Especially after you still were recovering from the kidnapping scenario. He was getting so excited to see your combat skills were vastly improving, so to see you torn back down to square one royally pissed him off.
Slamming the door open he noticed a few eyes on him, but most of them were on the large teacher that was nestled in between Nagisa's legs. Karma’s eyes widened for a moment, impressed that Nagisa was able to take down such a beast.
Clearly the blue haired boy had gotten stronger, and he was sure Nagisa felt just as much rage as him after seeing you in such a state. Still though, he noticed the large teacher get up once Nagisa let go so he knew this wasn't quite over yet.
Soon after Karma began to head to the scene you and your other injured classmates slowly made your way outside, the sight of Karma getting closer to the man causing you to freeze.
Of course Karma could take care of himself, hell you wouldn't be surprised if he could take this man out with his bare fists alone, but it was clear Mr. Takaoka wasn't a fair fighter. Karma was skilled, but he couldn't be prepared if the crazed man pulled a gun on him.
You attempted to call out Karma's name but he pretended not to hear you as he walked to the scene.
Looking around you quickly shouted Mr. Karasuma's name, his concerned eyes moved over to you before looking over to an angry Karma as you pointed to him. Mr. Karasuma gave you a curt nod in understanding.
At this point all you could do was watch the scene play out and hope nobody else got hurt.
"You ungrateful punks." Mr. Takaoka growled, his fists clenched and his body flexed like he was a giant bear, "You think it's fun shaming your father figure, huh?
A pit sat in the bottom of your stomach. Even as beat up as Mr. Takaoka looked, he was still screaming his head off. The expression of pure rage he wore while looking at Nagisa made it look like he was going to rip his head off.
"Having the time of your life pretending you won? Hope it was worth it cause daddy's about to rip you apart! Mind body and soul-"
All of the students began to yell for Nagisa to move, Mr. Karasuma ready to run and stop this crazed man's punch, but Korosensei simply placed his tentacle on Mr. Karasuma's shoulder to hold him back.
Mr. Karasuma angrily looked back at Korosensei in confusion as to why he stopped him, but when a crack filled the air all eyes worriedly looked over to Nagisa.
Once the dust cleared up from the dirt beneath him, everyone gasped in surprise when they saw an unharmed Nagisa with his arm defensively up. If he didn't get hit then what was the cracking sound?
Sure enough the class' crazy redhead stood before Mr. Takaoka, his meaty fist caught by Karma's hand.
Mr. Takaoka let out a grunt of surprise, seeing that his quivering fist stood no chance against Karma’s simple block. To make matters worse, Karma lazily smirked up to the man and let out a sneer.
"Is that all you've got, old man?"
Mr. Takaoka began to shake in fury as he ripped his hand from Karma's grasp.
"Why you little-"
The gym teacher began to throw another fist with much more force, but Karma simply caught it once again and used the force to swing his arm around and pin it against his back so that he couldn't move.
"Nobody likes a sore loser~" Karma cooed tauntingly before his foot connected with Mr. Takaoka's spine, the kick pummeling the teacher into the ground as his face dragged against the dirt.
Everyone watched with wide eyes. No matter how many times they saw Karma in action, everyone seemed to forget his own raw strength beyond his insane ability.
You finally let out a sigh of relief you didn't realize you were holding in this entire time as you watched Karma walk beside the teacher.
Mr. Takaoka attempted to lift his head weakly from the ground, still mumbling out profanities but Karma simply grabbed the base of his skull and slammed his face into the dirt before moving his face real close to the teachers.
The P.E. teacher felt fear flow over his body, the same way he did when Nagisa made his cheap move on him in their previous fight. The red haired boy practically stared into his soul with those sinister golden hues that looked almost excited to have him in such a degrading position.
"Tell me Mr. Tough Guy," Karma spoke calmly before roughly yanking Mr. Takaoka's head to face you and your injured classmates, "Were you the one that harmed my classmates over there?"
The teacher let out a grunt through his teeth, words struggling to form to his lips out of a mix of pain and anger.
Karma simply laughed, sending chills to those around him as he yanked the man's head to face Karma once again, making sure to tug harshly on his hair making Mr. Takaoka scream out in pain.
"I said.." Karma growled with narrowed eyes, "Did you lay even a single finger on my angel over there?"
Mr. Takaoka narrowed his eyes back to Karma, a slight grin coming on his face when he realized where all the anger was bubbling up from within the redhead. Making eye contact with you for a second he let out a choked out laugh before nodding.
"I sure did, and I regret noth-"
The teacher couldn't get out another word before Karma slammed his head directly into the dirt.
"Then you can stay there like the filthy mut you are, teach!" Karma exclaimed with a smile, not even caring to hear what else the man had to say as he stood up and walked back to his silent classmates.
Even after all of that the teacher tried his very best, though wasn't very successful, to get back up to which didn't go unnoticed by Karma.
"Hmmm.." Karma said as if in thought before his eyes fell on Nagisa, "Hand me the knife Nagisa."
The blue haired boy knew better than to question Karma in this state so he handed the knife over, though as Mr. Karasuma yelled for him to stop he soon regretted it.
Karma simply ignored their cries and before they could reach him he threw the knife with such precision it landed directly in the center of Mr. Takaoka's palm causing him to cry out in pain.
"Just so you don't get any ideas of getting up champ." Karma spoke as he patted the man's cheek before standing up and brushing his hands off.
Everyone seemed to let out a sigh when realizing Karma was done. Even with the damage done, his classmates were expecting a much more violent scene to play out, so this was the best outcome that could have happened.
Not even a few moments later as Mr. Karasuma dealt with Mr. Takaoka, the principal himself came down to lead the teacher off the premises. The students were surprised to see the principal take their side for once, but he did once again remind them that he cared about academics above all else.
For now, it was a win for Class 3-E, and the class treated it as such.
Of course both Korosensei and Mr. Karasuma scolded Karma for his dangerous behavior, but given the bizarre situation he got off with a warning. Both knew how possessive he got with you and Korosensei especially knew it came out of a place of concern.
As Mr. Karasuma walked off to check on the other students, Karma moved to go meet with you and Nagisa, only for a tentacle to stop him.
"Y/n truly held her ground you know." Korosensei spoke, Karma freezing as he looked up to his teacher that was already looking at you.
"She kept up with him easily for a few minutes and was able to get him down on his hands and knees, your training with her is really paying off."
Karma glanced from Korosensei back to you as a proud smile flashed across his face. Even with your grotesque injury, you were joking around with your friends, a smile on your face even with the intense day you had.
"I'm really proud of her." Karma spoke simply, those words filling Korosensei's heart up with hope.
"With that said, though she has a lot left to learn from you, don't forget to also keep learning from her."
At this Karma looked up to Korosensei with a raised brow.
"What do you mean?"
"As much as you hate to admit it, Y/n has changed you for the better Karma. You may claim she's made you weaker, but she's truly made you stronger. You aren't as reckless and careless anymore. You truly care for your classmates and want not only the best for them, but the best for yourself."
Korosensei looked down to Karma, who for once all day was speechless.
"You two are going to build each other up into the best individuals you can be, so keep learning from each other young man."
Karma looked back at you with furrowed brows. How did this damned octopus always know exactly what Karma was thinking, but was too embarrassed to say out loud? Hearing it come from Korosensei really made the redhead feel better, but of course he would never admit that.
"Alright alright you big sap, thanks for the advice but it's nothing I didn't already know," Karma spoke as he rolled his eyes, beginning to walk off, "Trust me Y/n is going to learn real well from me, she'll be my sweet little assassin by my side in no time."
Korosensei smiled at that until he noticed Karma pull out the knife from before as he flipped it around his fingers.
"And you'll be our first target teach~"
Korosensei began to go off in a frenzy, trying to grab the knife from Karma but to no avail as the boy walked off snickering.
-
For some reason unlike the first traumatic event you had with your classmates, this one didn't hit you as hard as usual. Sure you wished you didn’t have to endure that, the wound across your gut proving that point, but at the same time you felt so warm and safe being surrounded by your friends.
You've learned so much within your time here and it wasn't even the end of the first semester.
"Uh oh, red devil alert." Nagisa spoke nervously, your eyes falling on Karma as he sauntered over to you with an emotionless expression.
Sheepishly looking away you played with your fingers, refusing to look into those disapproving eyes as you awaited the sure lecture he would give you.
Once you heard him sit beside you, you raised a brow when no words came out of his mouth. Just before you could lift your head up, you felt gentle fingers grab your chin and tug your lips towards his own.
The kiss was unlike his usual ones, but not foreign to you. It wasn’t rough or rushed, but rather sweet and coordinated. The redhead kept your chin in his hold even after pulling away, his eyes glancing down to meet your nervous gaze.
"What you did today was crazy and not well thought out," Karma started, his brows furrowing together as he looked at you intensely before a small smile appeared on his lips, "But it was also very brave of you. I'm proud of you for sticking up for your classmates."
For a moment your brain shut off. The words "I'm proud of you" sounded foreign in general, let alone coming from your stubborn boyfriend himself.
Once you processed what was said you couldn't help the blush that rose to your cheeks as your lips rose into the prettiest smile Karma had ever seen in his life. Quickly you gather Karma into your arms, the boy taken aback before welcoming your warm embrace into his arms.
"Thank you Karma." You whispered into his chest, appreciating his new found trust and proudness in you.
This wasn't the same Karma you met when you got here, but you're so happy with how much you've both grown.
"She did totally kick ass Karma." Nagisa said with a grin, the redhead pulling away from you just so he could look at his friend, "She straight up spun behind that guy and before he could even process it, she cracked him right in the back of his neck, it was insane!"
"Oh did she now?"
Smiling wider, you looked over to Karma with a grin as you slowly got up on your knees, grunting a bit as you were trying to be careful not to strain your abdomen.
"I did! He was all like ‘woah where did she go’,” You spoke, mocking the large man’s voice as you knit your brows in an attempt to look scary, “And I was all like, ‘surprise!’ before I chopped down on his neck.”
Karma watched your movements with a toothy grin, his eyes sparkling with amusement and pride as you explained your tactics.
“He was totally knocked out for like… a few seconds at least.” You said with a pant, smiling down to the two boys that watched with matching smiles.
Karma couldn’t help but snort at your final pose, his arms grabbing the back of your thighs and gently lifting you into his lap, so as to not agitate your wound any further..
"Of course my sweet angel kicked his ass, she learned from the best after all~" Karma said with a cocky grin, Nagisa giving an unimpressed brow raise as you stuck out your tongue to him.
You all joked around until the class seemed to finally calm down, all of you eating the sweet treats Mr. Takaoka brought before he went psycho on you all.
It wasn't until you hummed against Karma's chest that he felt a sense of deja vu.
There you were, nestled between his crossed legs, your body cuddled up against his warm embrace as you nibbled on the flakey pastry in your hand.
Looking practically upside down backwards to Karma you stared into his beautiful golden eyes before offering a sweet smile, your lips quite literally covered in white powder from your pastry.
"I love you Karma." You whispered softly, giggling when Karma placed a quick kiss on your lips, only for his tongue to swipe those plush lips of yours to get the remaining powder from them.
Sure you weren't overlooking the large ocean on a dramatically beautiful cliff, and there were a few additions to the picture that Karma could've gone without. But he wouldn't have had it any other way.
"I love you too Y/n."

I also found a really cool song that pairs with the theme of the high school memory, it's linked on the title! It's super fitting the vocals are amazing aghhjjr!!
The Legend of the Blue Sea: Masterlist
Episode 3.1: Maybe This Time ⇾ Episode 3.2: Fish on Land
Westwood Academy, otherwise known as Westwood University, situated in Los Angeles, is one of the many renowned schools along the state. It hosts preschool to elementary to high school up ‘til college. It's one of the major league schools but is typically known for its.. extravagant prices. Often, along with a list of other universities, they allow for student exchange programs for exceptional scholars, selected around the world, to tour the litter of schools’ labs, attend special classes, or participate in small collaborative projects. Most of it was to allow these one in a million group of children to choose between potential university options.
Of course, even though this prestigious academy offered a massive field for different types of sports and had a pretty amazing reputation for its academic endeavours, for a guy like Kenji Sato, he knew that in the future, he’ll be transferring to the University of Los Angeles, where most athletes start to get drafted into the Major League Baseball drafts.
But that’s not the reason why he’s bursting his way through the halls right now, no.
Kenji’s running down the hallways because he stayed up too late last night trying to perfect his swing so he can finally get off the bench and play as one of their schools’ main batters. However, it definitely did not help that he spent the days prior studying for his exams too. And now, he slept through majority of his classes, waking up only to find out that in T-minus ten minutes, his Biology class will start, and he’s not too keen on facing the wrath of his teacher chastising him for that Plant Growth Experiment they’ve been rambling on and on about for the past three weeks.
“Out of the way!” Kenji dashes, jumping to avoid the group of students in the hall sitting.
“Sorry, in a rush—”
“Woah, watch those burgers, man.”
So far, he’s been barreling through the hallways great. It’s almost like his athletic instincts are on the high, the adrenaline pumping through his veins being the apt proof needed.
Jump, duck, dash, side, shwuck!
Kenji can see it, the greenhouse! It’s so close— But the sudden options in his head turn from swerving left, or jumping, to… (a) Crash right into this person rolling out a whiteboard all of a sudden in the middle of the hall without even looking at any passersby, or (b) CRASH but in capital.
The next few seconds, safe to say, were unpleasant.
“Shit, shit, shit!!!” Kenji yells, unable to stop his momentum, all but perfectly rams his face on to the rolling whiteboard.
Overcome with blaring pain on his forehead and nose, Kenji laid on the ground, chest uncomfortably resting on the similarly thrown down whiteboard who was unable to withstand his force. A myriad of groans and repeating ow’s overtook the once silent air. The sound of padding footsteps and a bleary voice soon adds on.
“Hey, are you okay?”
Kenji’s vision was blurry, still trying to adjust to his surroundings, eyes squinting and blinking as he realised that even his torso felt sore from the impact.
“Ugh…”
Suddenly, he feels gentle hands turning him over, pulling him away from the fallen board beneath him, albeit with some difficulty.
“God, you’re heavy.” He hears, moments before feeling his head plop down on pillowy skin.
Soon, his vision adjusts itself, enough so he can see the person holding him by the cheeks right now. And boy, when Kenji says he never felt like his anger dissipated so fast like a balloon deflating upon seeing your face, you best believe him.
“I think you'll be forming a bruise right here,” You say, all furrowed brows as you turn his face side to side.
“Oh no, your nose is bleeding now.”
Feeling your soft hold on him disappear, Kenji, all clad in his disarrayed highschool uniform, watches as you try to check your pockets for a handkerchief.
He watches you for a good minute or two trying to figure out where you placed your damned handkerchief, or so you say. Groaning as he picks himself back up, supporting his weight from the back, he distantly hears you say ah! Before he felt you practically shove the thing in his face.
“Here! To wipe your… blood.” You say awkwardly, the bell had rung a minute ago while Kenji thought it was just the ringing in his ears, the more desolate surroundings proved otherwise. He gracefully accepts your offer, lightly tapping the fabric on his nose that gladly did not crook from the impact. Still, it hurt.
You stood up to get the empty whiteboard back on its feet as Kenji stayed seated on the ground in the middle of the hallway that led to the greenhouse. There were no words spoken as both you and him got your bearings.
At least I got a good excuse to miss Biology now. Kenji randomly thinks as he sighs.
But it isn’t until he hears distant footsteps and voices did his instincts rear in. In hindsight, there was probably no reason for him to have felt so nervous to get caught or anything, it’s not like his nose bleed was fake to not garner a visit to the infirmary. Even so, he felt nervous to get caught. Enough to haphazardly drag you inside the room you came in, bringing the whiteboard along before the door slammed closed. Getting into trouble was not in his to-do list today, not after almost getting into a fight with a basketball player last week.
Your handkerchief was lying on the floor, the surprisingly soft hands of the boy you just met were muffling your surprised yelps with his palm, the other hand shushing you, his pointer finger pressing to his own lips. When the voices come closer, Kenji finally realises that it wasn’t a teacher that was walking towards them. It was his first crush ever since he transferred in Los Angeles when he was 8.
“So, are you going to respond to Ken-Ken anytime soon, Ash?” A litter of giggles follow as Kenji felt the heat rising up to his ears from the embarrassing nickname.
“Stoppp, you know I have to be nice because I’m class rep.” Ashley whines, stomping her foot and stopping just in front of the door of the classroom where you and Kenji hid. The action made you and him duck to the floor, nervous to get caught.
“Have you seen his eyebags lately? He looks horrible! I can’t believe he even asked for my help with Chemistry earlier, seriously. Aren’t you supposed to be the smarter one?”
"I know, right? And what’s with his accent? It’s like, get over yourself. He tries too hard sometimes. That’s probably why he’s just benched in the baseball team." Her friend snickers.
"And don’t get me started on his lunches. So gross!" Another one pipes in. “He eats raw fish and even eggs sometimes. Eugh…” She lurches.
Kenji hears a sigh, before the familiar voice of Ashley cuts through her friends. “Anyway, let’s go finish fetching the plants,”
“Didn’t Ken-Ken forget his project?”
“Talk about going against his nature, haha.”
The whole conversation made his shoulders and hands drop once their footsteps disappear. His demeanour immediately went from running through the halls to lying on the floor, and this time, it’s not because of a rolling whiteboard. Kenji sighs as he sits back on the floor, hands behind him as he looked up, the classroom was relatively dark, it was one of the extras, after all. His eyes close as he breathes in heavily, contemplating; ignoring the continuous trickle of red down his chin.
You, on the other hand, were perplexed. But seeing the situation, you can guess at least that much. After all, you were entering college at the ripe age of fifteen. In a tongue that Kenji hadn’t heard in a long time aside from phrases from his mom, you spoke. Quietly. Afraid to topple the fragile pieces that was the boy you just met.
“Was that you they were talking about?” You get the forgotten handkerchief on the floor, dried blood on some parts as you try to pat the dust away.
Kenji’s eyes open. And they meet yours. Worried yet curious, shimmering orbs, and gentle delicate hands that dabbed on his nose.
“Yeah.” He replies meekly, forgoing the language his peers spoke in, now matching yours. He didn't miss a beat in his language class, and his mom would definitely chastise him if he didn't know how to speak his mother tongue at all.
You give him a lopsided smile. “It would have been really awkward if you didn’t speak Japanese.”
Kenji chuckles at this. “Had doubts? What, not Japanese enough for you?”
You hum. “Does it matter? Being enough of one or the other.”
“...Well, no..”
Kenji huffs, laying on his back. “But it sure would make my life a hell of a lot easier.”
“Laying down isn’t good if you’re having a nose bleed.” You frown, about to reach down so you can pinch his nose.
As Kenji rummages through his brain, talking about how love, even though it was only a minor crush, absolutely sucks; his mind runs over what you said.
Nose bleed…
Then like a lightbulb; a sudden, stupid idea pierces through his blinded teenage head as he grabs your wrist and sits upright.
“You gave me this nose bleed.” Kenji starts, pointing to said appendage. And you were about to apologise, but he continues far too fast. “So, you have to do something for me.”
“What? Isn’t my handkerchief and recommendation to go to the infirmary not enough?”
“Wasn’t the one hogging the middle of the hallway.”
“Well I wasn’t the one running in the hallway. Section 5.8 of your school’s student handbook said no running in the halls.”
“Your sch—” Kenji’s eyes drift down to see that you aren’t wearing the standard uniform for the academy. Instead, you were in civilians. “Ohhhh,”
“Hah, can’t believe an exchange scholar like me know more than a veteran.”
“Never said I was a veteran.” Kenji shrugs. “And even if I was, what kind of normal person just rolls out a big whiteboard without looking outside?”
And just like that, it felt like there was some sort of.. mischievous jazz in the background, the words kept coming out, and out. Your arms and his start crossing, and you both inch closer and closer, with every retort.
“Have you ever heard of speed limits? You should stop dreaming about getting a driver’s licence at this point, Sir.”
“Getting this show on the road, huh? Well… ever heard of mid-lane hogging, Ma’am?”
“Oh? Did you just use an idiom literally? Cheesy.” You roll your eyes.
“Actually, that was a double entendre. I used it literally, and as intended. Too bad my ingenuity went over your head. Aren’t you supposed to be one of those exchange scholars? Did they get you mixed up with someone else?”
“I wish ingenuity was an antonym for genius right now.” You shake your head with a faux frown.
“Running out of fuel? ‘Cause that was pretty lame.” Kenji harrumphs, not noticing his nose bleed had stopped minutes ago. “Admit it. Your car crashed.”
“Is it my fault if your car crashed into mine?”
“Flat tire.”
Huh?
What was he— your eyes follow his, and it stares from your chest, back to your eyes. Still confused, something Kenji is quickly able to notice, he repeats what he said with a smirk.
“I said… you’re a.. Flat. Tire.”
Realising where he was going, you felt blood boil up to your head as your hand begins to raise. “Ohoh! You monster! I’ll give you more than a nose bleed when I’m done with you—!”
“I’d be… flat-tered.” Kenji pipes up one more time.
You were not flat! You were just… a late bloomer! That’s it!
Unbeknownst to you, Kenji had no qualms with your chest at all, no. And you were definitely not lacking in that department. He just thought that it was a metaphor for someone being so damn… disagreeable. It wasn’t his fault that your shirt was pulling down and he spared but a minute glance.
In all honesty, both of you, stuck in that moment, forgot what you were arguing about in the first place. When your hand was about to land smack on his cheek, he grabs it and pulls you closer to him, a wide grin on his face.
“Come on, help a victim out. We’ll just be giving them… something else to talk about.”
~
You did not know why you’d agreed to this.
But you did.
“No, no. Absolutely not! Plus, I’m not even popular or something, what statement are you really making there?”
“Well… you’re really pretty.”
He was incredibly insistent, and you felt like you owed him even though you gave him your handkerchief because it had his blood on it. Definitely not because your brain fried when he casually called you pretty with such an earnest face, like arguing would not even make sense to him. You would’ve called him dumb, stupid, or… or something! If he wasn’t speaking so smoothly earlier. Clearly, he does his homework and then some.
At the time, while he decided to skip Biology to head to the clinic with you in tow, you got to know each other just a little bit. Your new.. friend, knew that you’ll be going back to Japan in a few days, so he had to be bold to really make his statement. The stakes were low, and the rewards, at least for Kenji, could be high; enough to save face and show everyone that he does not care about the squeaky class representative.
Kenji preferred to speak to you in Japanese so that only few, if not anyone, could really overhear what you two were talking about.
Eventually, you really had to go and promised to meet in front of the empty classroom where you two hid the morning next day, when your group would have to do some collaborative projects.
And when you separate and return back… Imagine your group, mixed with different ethnicities, academic nukes as you would like to call them, sees you with no whiteboard in hand after being gone for almost an hour or two… embarrassing.
Even more so, when he comes to school the next day, not even waiting to go to your designated meeting location so he can hug you in the middle of their field, catching your group off guard. He’d talk to you and call you a slew of nicknames, most notably…
“Sweetheart! Got you some sandwiches that my mom made. Wanna go eat lunch together at the cafeteria?” Emphasis on the cafeteria, his thick brows wiggling at the word.
He’d hold your hand, and if there was free time for his practices and your little assigned activities, he’d be sitting next to you by the bleachers as you read through the material your temporary mentors recommended. He was sweaty, and he’d be gasping for air, but a wide grin was on his face as he told you he’d stolen so many bases this time. And that he’d hit a few good home runs, how he’ll definitely get a spot on the main team today, all before his coach would call him back with a loud, stern voice.
“Sato!”
He’d leave, yes. But not before he gives you a kiss on the cheek before waving you off as he jogs backwards with a stupid grin.
“What’re you reading?” Kenji would ask.
You’d look up from the cafeteria table, and he’s leaning closer to you to try and get a read in.
“Advanced Robotics: Pioneering Techniques and Applications by Robert Callaghan.” You reply, not missing a beat in your reply.
Kenji would whistle and then proceed to sit beside you as he takes out his lunch. A bento box.
“Want to do a lunch switch? I always wanted to do that.” He asks with puppy eyes matched with a big smile, hands clasped together as he pleaded.
“And I loveee curry!” He adds on.
You notice that he was easy to change demeanours when it came to you. Whether it was because you were from Japan too, or because he knew you'd be leaving, allowing for him to continue acting how he wants to without any true repercussions— you.. would never know.
You smile before sighing out a sure after popping out a deal that he had to buy you ice cream after though, to which he hollers and fist bumps the air as you exchange boxes with an eager face.
You’ll both be in sync when you pick the food with your chopsticks, sighing out a satisfied puff of air while both your cheeks were lathered with the comforting flavour of home.
He never asked for your number. But he’ll wait out of the lecture rooms you’d be in that day, saying he’s just asking the teachers around where the scholars were so he can rush over; offering to carry your bag and walk in step with you.
All in the name of getting back at his ex-crush, of course.
And every time he catches a glimpse of the angered look on his ex-crush, he attunes it to the blooming joy in his chest when he glances back at you, going on a rant about how no, they should have planned the encoding before building the robot. So now, we lost!
You’ll feel a ruffle on your head and a laugh from the taller boy beside you.
Then, you’ll arrive to the front gates. Kenji standing still as you say: “You don’t have to act here anymore, you know? I doubt anyone’s watching anymore.”
Kenji clears his throat, coughing a little, avoiding your gaze. “Well… You might get kidnapped for all I know. I won’t have a sweetheart by then, wouldn’t I?”
“Pfft.” You fail to conceal the bubbling laughter from your throat.
“You’re cheesy as hell,” You tease back, taking your clasped hands away from his so you can lean sideways as you grin. “...sweetheart.”
Kenji could barely get a stuttered reply out before the familiar black car that was from the exchange program drives you to your shared hotel with the other scholars and professors. That day, and the following would go by the same. With him simply giving a lame wave off before the escort drives you away.
All until you finally had to return to Japan; your last day. Like clockwork, however, even on your last day, Kenji would walk with you to the front gates. His steps slow every second, and you would mirror him, you’d go slower, and slower, and even more so; still, you arrive at the front doors.
When Kenji placed a heavy hand to open them, it revealed a slew of raindrops falling from the stormy sky.
“Ah, it wasn’t raining earlier.” Kenji notes. “Got to practise and everything…” He rubs the back of his neck.
“Really? Seems like it’s been going on a while.” You appraise quietly, Kenji only hums in reply.
Like the rain falling in the sky, there was a heavy downpour that neither of you could ever place in the meagre age of highschool, even if you were advancing to college much faster.
“So, you’re going back to Japan today?”
“Yup.” You awkwardly reply as you sway on your feet. Back and forth. “Still have to actually graduate high school before picking my college, you know?”
And it’s quiet again as you both try to think of what to say. It was only a week, and yet… Kenji had never had such a true friend since he moved to Los Angeles when he was a young kid.
“Well, if you wanna see me again, since I know you’ll miss me— oof.” You punch his chest lightly, making him puff out air, as you both eventually chuckle.
“Who says I’ll miss you? You just coerced me into getting chummy with you. Never again.” You huff, crossing your arms and raising your chin indignantly.
“All I’m saying is… if you pick a university close by, I’ll be at ULA soon. I’ll get into the Dodgers for sure.” He’s told you this in one of your many little conversations. The University of Los Angeles, home of the LA Dodgers and the Dodger Stadium.
You look at him and you share a genuine smile as the breeze from the rain sends a peculiar sparking chill down both your spines.
“Sure. I’ll come visit when I’m nearby… hopefully.” You trail off.
Even with the laughter and the once more inevitable silence, there was always something on the tips of yours and Kenji’s tongue. Something to say, some things to ask. And yet, you ball on your feet and he thinks of letting go of your hand that he realises he was clasping too tightly in an embrace with his own fingers.
However, when the recurring black car arrives, you let go before he does, as you dashed through the rain. You turn back, and Kenji’s watching from the safety of the school entrance as you get drenched even though you try to put your bag over your head.
You want to say something, anything. Yet all you could do is give a solemn wave and a smile.
He waves back and you turn away to jog closer to your ride back home, a few steps away from the gate, form stilling as you contemplate getting into the car.
You glance back, and he��s turned away, walking deeper into the school, probably so he won’t get wet. And your mouth opens, but it says nothing; calls out no one.
Your eyes flit to the black car; one last chance.
You can’t help it. You want to tell him more.
You want to tell him how you wish him luck on his career, maybe wish he could find better friends, find a better girl to crush on— and you turn back, one last time, words burning on the tip of your tongue.
But it dies down when your vision meets a familiar uniform.
Kenji’s chest, heaving, as you both get wet in the onslaught of the rain; his hand on your wrist, willing you to stop, as he opens and closes his mouth. The words were on the tip of his tongue; unknowingly mirroring each other in ways you barely had the time to think about after spending only seven days within each other’s presence.
But before you could even squeak out a word, you feel his bigger hands wrap around your now cold cheeks, and in no time…
His warm, soft lips on yours.
Your eyes close, following his tilted head as your hands reach up to hold the hands caressing and holding your face in place. It felt like a sun in the rain, unlike anything you’ve ever felt; and it distantly reminds you of an old childish memory back in the old playground in Odaiba before you and your brothers had to move away to your Aunt’s cafe.
It felt like an eternity of your inexperienced lips melding into each other, and suddenly all too fleeting when you finally pull apart. The honking of the horn from your driver finally takes you both out of your trance. The sudden shattering of the scenario made you glance back to the school entrance, where Kenji’s crush, the reason why you started all of this with him, was standing and watching; and suddenly, you feel your heart pull back the same way that you pulled your body away from him, lightly pushing his chest away.
“I’ll see you.” You whisper, a hint of sadness that Kenji picked up on too late; eyes trained on your similarly drenched figure rushing to the front seat of your escort.
He was too dazed, trying to sculpt the image of his first kiss into his brain. That is, if he forgoes the girl who kissed him when he was seven.
“Good luck, Jiji! I’ll see you.” You wave with a forcibly mischievous tone, as if you didn’t feel anything from that kiss, you close the door to the black car whose engine was finally preparing to take off from the high school.
Kenji stands there, wordless, ears red not just from the kiss, but now from that… cute nickname.
“I’ll… see you.” He replies, raising his hand weakly, not caring if the rain still poured heavily on him.
It took a minute after the car left did he realise.. Wait, what was her name again?
“Wait. She knows my name. She knows my name—?” He must be the stupidest guy alive for not even asking anything about you… your number, or… or, or your damn name.
Kenji grasps his hair, berating himself inside for his stupid decisions. Of course, you know! He never asked yours because he resorted to calling you those cheesy pet names. He didn't think it would matter.
But then he kissed you and now, suddenly, he knows it matters so much.
Fuck.
Fuck!
The car was already driving away, and— and Ashley, who seemingly came out of nowhere for Kenji Sato whose mind was only running with thoughts of you and his stupidity, was talking about something, something getting her jealous and she knows, and—
Kenji doesn’t get to hear the rest of her statement as he begins running into the rain, trying to not lose sight of the car where you sat. Neither you whose face was currently buried in your hands, willing yourself to forget of the meaningless kiss, nor the driver who was focusing on the road ahead, was able to see the boy trying to catch up as the engine simply revs faster along the empty road.
He borrowed a bicycle just laying on the sidewalk, the owner, who looked away for a second, yelling at him.
“I’ll give it back, I promise!” Kenji yells as he tries to pedal through the storm like his life depended on it.
As he rides through the rain, he tries to yell after the car. “Wait, sweetheart, come back!”
“I didn’t do it because of her, I—” He heaves, losing his breath and feeling cold as the car goes faster, the rain falling heavier in turn; rumbles of thunder following suit.
I didn’t kiss you because she was there. Was what he wanted to say.
Could we keep in touch? Was what he wanted to ask.
Please pick a university close by. Was what he wanted. Really, really wanted. From you.
Kenji pedals harder, his muscles burning as he pushes against the heavy downpour. He can see the car’s taillights glowing dimly in the distance. He’s gaining on it. Just a little more…
“Sweetheart!” He yells out, his voice barely audible over the roaring storm. For a moment, he thinks he sees the car slow down, as if you heard him. His heart leaps with hope. He pushes harder, the distance between him and the car shrinking.
But just as he gets within a few yards of the car, it speeds up again, the taillights growing fainter. Kenji’s legs are screaming in protest, his lungs burning from the effort. He’s so close, yet so far.
He reaches out a hand, as if he could touch the car, as if he could make you hear him. But the rain obscures his vision, and the car speeds away, disappearing into the distance.
Kenji finally stops running, the bicycle falling to the ground as he bends over, trying to catch his breath. He’s soaked to the bone, every part of him aching, but the worst pain is in his chest.
In the distance, the car disappeared from view, taking you along with it.
“Sweetheart…” he whispers to himself, feeling the sting of regret seeping into his being.
Even with all his developing athletic might, Kenji Sato, who was still barely entering the cusps of his future stardom, could not catch up to his first crush. Thoughts forever unvoiced to the person that mattered enough for him when he was still a junior in high school.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
It was hard.
Kenji’s day would start at around 5 AM, and end… its end was dependent, really. He would feed the baby, research more about kaiju, study whatever form or strategy Coach Shimura would give, clean the baby's poop, entertain her, and generally stop her from lashing out. Then train and look stupid in this season's games because he wasn't getting some apt sleep. Sometimes it was paranoia that the baby would cry or need something, most of the time it's because the baby did cry and needed something.
Aside from his baseball, baby, and Ultraman responsibilities, there still was the unknown variable that was… well, you.
The half-kaiju human.
The giant mermaid.
You were silent a lot of the time, and often it would pass in Kenji's mind that you were either a ghost or a living fairytale. Maybe a witch cursed you and took away your voice, or maybe a witch cursed you and forced you to sleep for long periods of time. Because after you.. took that ice bath with him, you laid still in bed for the next two days.
Kenji would thank the damn heavens when you were awake, even for just a day before you slumbered for abnormal periods of time again. Whenever you were awake, the baby would be easier to tend to. Less hungry, more happy; she'll make grabby for you when you go down, and you’ll lay there, your head on the glass container as that familiar tune keeps the baby in a state of calm for the rest of the day. Often, you would forget to go back to the bedroom and Kenji would come home, sweaty from ball practice to see you asleep in the basement, the giant kaiju baby curled up where you were. Those were the days when you’d wake up when he wasn't home.
When you did wake up and he was home? Well, let's just say that Kenji… could never complain. He’ll get shit from his team and his Coach, but then he's home early that day and you just happen to be awake? You're bounding to him like a magnet on a metal pole. A warmth blanketing his chest, enough to let him sigh out his grievances for the day as he opens the front door and sees your happy face.
He may not understand what he's doing to make you feel overjoyed, but he'll take it. He’ll take it, like how he takes your simple pleas for a hug, like how he takes your face burying into his neck. And he’ll take your open arms, willing him to lay down in bed with you when all things are done, your hands combing through his hair as you coo the familiar sounds of the ocean in his ear. Maybe that's the reason why he’d always carry you back to his room when you fell asleep with Baby even though the guest room had been available for a while now.
“I have now gathered 3 weeks worth of data on the woman, Ken. Would you like the analysis?”
Ah.
Kenji grogs his way up from his bed, your arms back to laying limply, sliding down his naked torso; he preferred sleeping with no shirt on, and he would have been more embarrassed sleeping with a girl he didn't know if he wasn't sure that you were just.. an affectionate creature, person— still figuring that part out.
“Sure, go ahead, Mina.” He yawns, rubbing his eyes as he slouches on his mattress.
“Her last steady transformation into her kaiju form was the time when you took an ice bath with her. A significant difference in her injuries were found compared to her injuries the day before. However, it seemed to have slowed majorly since. Her body seems to prioritise external and surface-level injuries, however as is, she is having trouble truly healing her leg fractures in kaiju form. What I have gathered from my scans is that her severe tail fracture presents differently, or rather, not at all when she inevitably transforms back into her half-human self. She has attempted transformation a couple of times when in proximity of the baby, all of which only lasted less than 3 minutes.”
Kenji nods, taking it all in. However, he can't help but snort when the thought pops in his head. “So, what? I should take a bath with her again and see if that makes it better?”
The robot remains silent, and Kenji basks in the awkward bliss of forgetting that Mina is not exactly programmed to be the best buddy in terms of jokes landing.
“If you wish so, Ken.”
Kenji sputters at this, but he realises he might have been too loud as he looks back. Though futile, considering the information he just heard, you would probably be asleep for days even if he screamed all he wanted, considering your everlasting affection for him last night; the pattern was undeniable. The reminder of your comforting caresses sends an involuntary.. pleasurable shiver down his spine.
So Kenji, in turn, whisper-yells to Mina. “It was a joke!”
“Ha-ha.”
“I should tell dad to install a comedian chip in you.” He crosses his arms. “So? What should we do? We can't have her sleep forever. If we can get her up and going, raising the baby would be ten, no, a hundred times easier! Have you seen how much the baby likes her mama?”
“While she is not her biological mother, yes, I have observed the phenomenon. My theory is that she has connections with Gigantron prior.”
This makes Kenji perk up. “Really? How’d you know?”
“She has lingering scales and residue from the passed kaiju.”
“Wait..”
“No,” Mina immediately interjects. “I’ve discretely gotten samples from her tail when she transforms; quite easy to gather due to their wide difference in colour. I believe their relations are similar to the idea of companionship. They must have been friends. Especially considering Gigantron is oviparous and that they are both Female.”
Kenji lets out a sigh of relief that he didn't know he was holding. It was just.. an unpleasant thought. He didn't even see it as possible, considering your kaiju was a mermaid. But what did he know? That's why he was flipping textbook over textbook in hopes of understanding both you and the baby some more.
“On the course of that line of thinking, I am sure she's not taken, Ken. Rest assured. She, like Gigantron, seems to be the sole of her kind. And since she looks to be predominantly human, I doubt animals were attracted to her.”
“Okay, getting a little graphic here. I did not need to know any of that.” He shakes his head, putting his hand up towards the floating ball.
Today was a weekend, he just flunked his game again yesterday, and everything was going awful as it usually did. Until he went home and realised it was one of his lucky days. Slept like a baby last night, and today, he can sleep in because when you tuck the baby in, normal wake up time is moved. Plus, she won't fuss if Mina is to serve the school of fish for breakfast that day.
So now, as Kenji stretched his bare arms back, he looks to you and then back at Mina.
“So, how do we get her better?”
[...]
“I have deduced that water may be the primary factor in her physical healing process. Since she is waterborne, it could only be natural.” Mina explains, floating next to Kenji's shoulder as the man, dressed in only his sweats, carried you in his arms all the way to the tub in the bathroom this time.
“Alright, water makes her better.”
You, right now, kept to your iridescent appearance. However, your litter of scales and the webs between your fingers were disappearing. The only semblance left that Kenji would ever deem inhumane is how silky your skin was, much like your unusual hair, and eyes, if you opened them. His mind briefly flashes to when you got in the ice bath with him, when your features sheened a bit more natural than it usually was. A lot of questions lingered on Kenji's tongue.
“Remember when she healed me that night, Mina?”
The bot whirrs and affirms. “Yes. I remember your recount of it. Since I did not witness the act, I do not have much information. Perhaps her innate regenerative capabilities can be conducted. Did you notice anything strange at the time?”
Kenji thought hard. But who was he kidding? He went stupid the moment you dipped into the bath with him. He could've left but he didn't, not when you had him in this sort of.. chokehold. Finding himself wanting your affection, your acts of spoiling him, while he’ll have this forming desire to please you.
“...No.” He meekly replies, not really wanting to spare Mina any more details of the day; even though Kenji was sure that the AI knew he just melted into you that night the same way he would whenever you waked to coddle him and the baby… It just always seemed to work so well.
Kenji places you into the tub gently.
“Mina, one last thing before you handle the bath. Research more about my symptoms, tell me if you find anything, alright?”
“Yes, Ken.” Mina replies, allowing Kenji to walk out of the large bathroom as Mina undresses you from Kenji’s clothes, changed daily by the bot as well.
[...]
“I believe it is your body's natural response to avoid the physical pain you feel in your kaiju form.” Mina’s voice was slightly muffled by the closed door that led to the bathroom.
Kenji came barreling back in while preparing his special shake when he felt this inexplicable wrapping of panic in his chest. It's familiar, and he knows it's not his.
“Mina? What's going on?” His stern voice cuts through the whimpers and the soft cries in the bathroom.
“Ken.” Mina acknowledges his presence as his eyes dart to the tub.
You were about to transform to your kaiju. Slowly getting bigger. Kenji notices this, taking you away from the tub, as you slowly but surely developed your kaiju features with each whine from your lips.
“We gotta get her to the basement stat.” Kenji almost barks the order out, wide strides as he ran to the elevator.
“And the baby?”
“Baby will have to wait for a bit.” Kenji replies, tapping his foot as the elevator took him and Mina down. The pink kaiju still wrapped in her own self, dozing.
“Uhhh, water, right?” The elevator dings, and by now you were getting a little too big even for Kenji’s better strength. He doesn’t waste time transforming into his counterpart, allowing you to lay on his palms as you grew, and with your size, came your more prominent wounds.
“Open the water gates, Mina. And extend a platform around the window.”
By now, your tail was in full display and you size was enough for him to carry you in his arms while in Ultra. Your eyes still closed in pain as you let out soft, vulnerable cries. It grasps at Kenji’s heartstrings more than you’d ever know. Finally, Ken managed to get settled on the extended platform just on the other side of his wide underwater window, where the baby was slowly but surely rubbing her eyes awake.
“Mina, are you sure she’s okay?”
“She will become better when she is in water. It stimulates her natural DNA, she will heal faster there.” Mina assures.
Kenji nods slowly, eyes never leaving your forcefully closed ones. Your hands were clutching yours and his chest simultaneously. Looking closer across your scale-addled body, conveniently covering the swells of your breasts before lightly avoiding the area of your tummy, only to connect to your magnificent tail— that he notices only now, was bent in a slightly awkward shape. When he reaches out a hand to assess the damage, even the smallest touch made you jolt and open your eyes with downturned brows.
“Hi…” Kenji whispers. “Sorry… Uhm,” He never did call you much of anything, did he? So he blurts out the first thing that came to mind. “— Sweetheart. Did it hurt? Hm? It’s okay, you feel better here, right?”
Surprisingly, you nod, as if you understood him. The whimpers die down as you suck in a breath. Seems like you liked your little nickname.
“Good girl.” Kenji praises, and he feels that familiar blanket around his chest; joy. Oh, you liked that too? Could you actually understand? “Keep taking deep breaths, okay?”
Amidst the seawater where the island rocks and the school of fish would provide the blue atmosphere its renowned ambiance, you did something that actually did blow Kenji and quite possibly Mina’s, minds.
“Thank you.” You’d said.
Kenji would look at you, his Ultra’s glowing eyesight mixing with the bioluminescent glow of the water, aquamarine and sky blue against the monochromatic shades of blue from the once undisturbed waters.
“Kenji.” You’ll add, not breaking eyesight against the Ultra who held you close to his chest.
The man in question was speechless. Your voice catching him off guard, he’d heard it in small hums and coos, and cries— but now, you’ve actually said something. He was still unable to speak, but the yawn of the baby and the familiar shrieks as her tubby hands banged on the glass container to face you and Kenji, begging to be part of the circle.
“It seems the baby has awoken. What would you like to do, Ken?”
You notice this, and peer off his shoulder to look the baby in the eye. She pouts and cries, and your hand moves to beckon her over.
“Baby, come.” You said simply.
“Open the container, Mina, and let her out.” Kenji instructs, finally broken out of his self-induced trance.
When the AI does as it was told, the tiny pink kaiju, tiny in comparison to her step-in parents that is— had begun its steps out into the water, Kenji almost yelps as he forgot that the added extension didn’t reach the gates. Baby who didn’t know how to swim yet, made Kenji inwardly panic when she sank for even a quarter of a second. All before she seemed to be wrapped in a bubble of water that made her float all the way to both you and him, with it popping so she landed in between the closed space of yours and Kenji’s torsos.
She squeaked happily.
It was almost what one could consider a picture-perfect family moment. And Mina was sure to capture the moment in question; if not but to send it to Professor Sato. Taking a vial of a sample from the now luminescent water was also one of Mina’s agendas, which she does discreetly.
“You can talk?” Kenji asks once you three got settled, with papa being the carrier of the brunt. He's deeply fascinated.
“How?”
[...]
Two weeks had passed since Kenji and Mina found out that you were able to understand and communicate because you were listening in to both him and the AI in your sleep or the few times you’ve been awake. Since then, the routine changed up once again, now that you were more frequently awake.
You still couldn’t do complicated schedules, but there were a mix of positive and negative setbacks, as all things are. The most positive side is that you’re there now for the baby, you’re eager to learn from Mina who’d play you educational videos or give you books to read after you relearnt your basic language, of course. And life seems to be doing slightly better for Kenji now that you were truly taking on the mom role.
“Well done, Sato.” His coach grunts, arms crossed. “Your plays suddenly got better this week. Whatever you're doing, don't mess up like last times.”
Now, you might be wondering: Okay, so what's the downside?
Dishes cluttered as sounds of footsteps throttling wake Kenji up in the middle of the night. And if he hones his listening, sounds of a left-open TV show and some uncontrolled laughter was coming from the living room. He’d move his arm to pat the— you guessed it— empty space beside him.
Of course you were still up.
When your hunger bout started the same day that you began taking regular rests in the seawater platform by the basement, Kenji taught you that there was food more delicious than Baby's diet. Which was raw, slimy, uncooked, alive fish.
So, he started you with the next best thing: Sushi.
“See? Better than raw— better than live fish, right? Mmmm~” Kenji watches as you take hold of a roll cautiously, looking at him with an unsure face.
You were so enamoured by the taste. So much so, it was endearing at first. He says at first because he didn't know he just unlocked a major foodie within you. You're morbidly curious, and you have an insane appetite. Mina had to work double-time to answer all your questions once you got started on your Language lessons.
Do these little… creatures—
“Ants.” Kenji inserts for you.
“Do they have feelings? If I take away this grain of sugar, will they get angry? Sad?” Your way of speech was still… developing, clearly. You tended to speak more formally because of the educational material.
He wishes he can read your thoughts to that extent, but he’s stuck with… whatever you did right now.
Sometimes, he’d feel when you were happy, most of the time it would be when he opens the front door; your bare feet pit-a-patting on the solid ground of his private home before you jump in his arms. He’d feel when you’re sad, whenever a favourite character from whatever TV show seems to get sick, or worse, die.
Oh, he’d feel you sad, alright.
He’d have to deal with it in bed when you’re wetting the pillowcases with your tears and small sobs. Rarely does he feel you getting mad. The only other time he can remember is when he brought the baby home with him the first time.
And all those little things. The distance doesn’t seem to matter, he’ll feel a distinct mirror of what you did permeate through his chest. He won’t know from what, but he’d be left to speculate whenever Coach Shimura scolding him, or his teammates were talking behind his back for his recently shitty performance. It was a nice distraction, and since, he notices, that your most common emotion seems to be happy, it lightens him up. Wait, what was he saying again?
Aside from that, scratch a good half of what he said— if you considered your massive amounts of food intake, there was the issue of you actually eating. It was a hefty job teaching you table manners and Kenji was running out of shirts.
“Minaaaa,” Kenji calls out with an exasperated tone, bounding into the living room, hair messy and body heavy with you clinging on to his form like a backpack while giggling.
“I am running out of clothes to wear. We need to get her,” He points to you and bite his finger lightly. “—her own things.”
“Of course, Ken.”
“And you,” He jumps, and your hold around his neck tightens, much like your legs around his torso. “Get off!”
It’s a minute of Kenji trying to get you to let go of him, with you eluding his touches to the side of your stomach that he recently found out you’ve grown ticklish to.
“Ohoh, you want to make this difficult, princess?”
“But I do not want to!!! Stop!! Stop— HAHAH— Noooooo!!!”
He managed to tackle you to the couch as your laughs and heaving wheezes filled the air; not noticing that he started laughing along, hands unyielding from trying to rub over the sides of your sensitive stomach.
“Ken, I apologise for interrupting such a precious moment, but what in particular do you wish for me to order for her?”
Snapping out of his daze, he’s suddenly made aware of how he was leaning down on you; shirtless. You wore one of his dark blue long-sleeved shirts along with his boxers, shirt slightly riding up, the other slowly riding down in contrast. Your legs were loosely resting around his waist with you still looking up the ceiling while you tried to catch your breath. And when your eyes meet his, it feels like his heart jumped to his throat, his nerves getting the best of him made him immediately jump off the couch.
Kenji clears his throat, hand on his hip while turning away from you to respond to Mina who he dearly hopes does not make another comment about—
“Your temperature is rising. Shall we continue this discussion another time? You might develop a fever.”
“Aha, no, Mina.” He saves face. “I’m fine, I’m not sick. It’s just— it’s hot in here, isn’t it?”
“Sick? Fever?” You pipe up as you begin walking slowly towards Kenji who flinches as he senses your oncoming presence. “You are sick, Kenji? I have seen characters become sick on TV. Are you going to die? Kenji!?”
Your hands were gripping his shoulders so tightly with every word, your face scrunched in so much worry as if he had Stage 4 Cancer. You started shaking him haphazardly in your bouts.
“Answer me!”
“You are not allowed to die!”
“Come to the water with me. I must heal you. Immediately.”
Kenji, a little dazed from the back and forth of your earlier shaking, finally finds a reply when you determined that you can most likely heal him, moving to drag him to the bathroom; presumably back in the bath tub.
“I’m fine, I’m fine, sweetheart. Calm down.” Your tight grip on his hand reminds him of another fact that he and Mina has learned.
Somehow, you’re able to retain a semblance of your kaiju strength in half-human form. He finds this out in an instant when he tried to deny you ramyeon once when you were still prone to tantrums. Kenji hisses when you let go of his right wrist, his other quickly rubbing against the area on instinct.
“Oh no, did I… hurt you?” You say, timidly. A wild contrast from your earlier and regular demeanour. Another thing he noticed is that apart from you being extremely clingy with him, you.. oddly care for him; what he thinks, how he’s feeling.
Kenji sighs and pats your head right after. “No, princess, I’m all good. No bruises, see? It’s okay.” He reassures you, remembering that last time when you found out you injured him, you bawled and apologised for the whole night.
“I’m okay.” He pinches your cheek to get you to look at him, knowing that you’re beating yourself up in your head. If your sudden silence wasn’t enough of an indicator, he didn’t know what is.
“Ah, Mina, so about her stuff…” Ken starts, looking back after sensing the presence of the AI bot silently hovering behind him. “Just get her whatever essentials you think she needs and might need.”
“Got it, Ken. As for her clothes, will we have a set budget? Preferred brands?”
“You kidding? Just buy anything. Whatever’s popular these days.” Kenji shrugs as he looks down at you who was trying to dissect their conversation. He’ll look down from his shirt to your bare feet.
“Shoes, sleepwear,” Kenji tries to list.
“How about her underwear, Ken?” Okay, at this point, the robot was probably teasing him.
Kenji sputters, feeling heat crawl up to his face again. Of course, why didn’t he think of that?
“I was just about to say it, Mina.” He sassily remarks.
“Any preferred design?” Okay, at this point, the robot was definitely teasing him.
“Shut up.” He spares you a glance and you simply looked clueless. Thank God.
When screeches started to emanate from the basement, all three of you perked up. But you suddenly cut them off. “Oh! Baby!”
“I will go down.” You offered, not really giving them respite as you cheerfully jogged to the elevator.
This brings up another topic for both Kenji and Mina.
“Soon, we will be able to ask her about Kaiju Island.”
“Uhuh,”
“What are your thoughts about it, Ken?”
“I mean… it would be convenient to know the place. But even if we do, we can’t just leave the baby and her there alone. Without a mom, the baby would die.” And…
“Of course.” The bot responds with a tone that suggests she knew that Kenji wanted to say more.
“And we can’t just leave her in Kaiju Island now. It’s just— we haven’t found a case yet, and I’m still practising for baseball… you know?”
We can deal with it off season, a hidden voice within a deep compartment in his brain says.
“I perfectly understand, Ken.” Still with that cheeky tone. For a robot, Mina can get quite expressive, much to Kenji’s dismay.
Kenji groans, ignoring the bot’s teasing while running a hand through his morning hair.
“Have all her things delivered by tomorrow or as early as possible to the drop-off point so I can pick it up in my car after practice. And help her understand how some things work, I know she’ll be confused with… some stuff.”
The robot hums. “I have a suggestion as well, Ken. I believe if our goal is to help identify her and get her acclimated to human society, it would be best if she knew places outside of the house. And perhaps other people outside of—”
“Outside of me?” Kenji squints, crossing his arms. “What are you suggesting?”
“If you want to expand the possibility of her regaining her old memories by chance, if our theory is correct that she was a past human — based on the articles that dated first sighting of her three years ago— then it would be helpful if she is reminded of the society she grew up in. And she might develop her original traits more if she interacts with other people in a controlled , yet natural environment.”
Kenji remained silent. He knew Mina was right, but… “I don’t know… It’s still a little risky.”
However, it is true that Kenji feels a little bad now that he thinks about it. How you were also feeling indebted enough to take care of a baby that wasn’t your own, while he and Mina occasionally wrote notes and shared minute observations about you like you were a lab rat…
“Okay, fine. I’ll take her to Roppongi once I’m free, she’ll probably love the food there. Lots of people.” He shrugs, walking backwards to his room as he faces the hovering bot.

THE WISEWOMAN (roman reigns ff) <chapter 3>

word count: 2k
Nervous is an understatement for my state of feeling right now.
Today is my first segment and in this segment I have to announce that I am the temporary wise woman for Roman Reigns.
Also I have a task from uncle. I have to persuade Nick Aldis - the general manager of Smackdown to cancel the fatal 4-way match since it's just unfair.
These past few days I met Jimmy, Jey and Solo. Very respectful men by the way. Uncle wasn't lying.
I have also been making friends with the women roster cause I do need female friends here. I can't only hang out with the Bloodline, right?
"Don't worry, girl. You got this!" Samantha tried to hype me up. She is the ring announcer and honestly we became close really fastly. In a few days, we know all about the life stories of one another. "I can't even wait to announce you. Ladies and gentlemen, accompanied to the ring by his special council, the wise woman - Sophia Heyman...oh my god" she started clapping excitingly and this made me grin from ear to ear.
"It sounds so good. You are so talented" I exclaimed. Her voice is really made for announcing, it's so powerful.
"Good luck to your fiancée, by the way" I wished her. Her and Trevor are one of the sweetest couples ever.
"Thank you so much" she smiled nervously.
"It must be nerve-wracking to have a partner wrestler, right?" I asked out of nowhere. I mean, looking at these men and women sacrificing their bodies and health everyday for the sake of entertainment is insane and is bringing a lot of thoughts in my mind...and questions.
"Indeed. You are always worried about their health cause anything can happen in that ring and yeah..." she explained. "I just pray every day for him and for my colleagues, of course"
"Understandable" I nodded my head.
"Speaking of..." she looked around us and got closer to me. "What do you think about him?" I got puzzled for a moment.
"Ricochet? Well, I haven't really spoken to him but he seems like a nice guy" I replied.
"Not my fiancée...about Roman" she looked around again and whispered his name.
"Is he like Voldemort, why you so scared of saying his name? Well, he seems okay for now. Honestly, better than I expected but I had no expectations so." I shrugged.
"I think he likes you." she just spat out but this time she wasn't very quiet.
"What? Samantha...are you in your delulu moment?" I furrowed my eyebrows because she just said that so out of nowhere.
"Girl, literally look at you. That's what I'm gonna say. You are the woman that haunts men's dreams, no matter if they are single or taken." Samantha clarified.
"Come on." I rolled my eyes. Would lie if I said I didn't get this before.
"He is divorced by the way but you haven't heard this from me" Samantha switched to whispering again.
"What? I mean...how do you know? I mean, yeah whatever, I guess. Uncle is divorced as well." I shrugged. Trying to look nonchalant.
"You don't get my point. What I'm trying to tell you is that you should be careful if you don't wanna end up being caught in his vice grip" Sam giggled cause she knows I got the reference very well. However, I was totally unfazed because I don't see myself with a man like him.
"Ha-ha, so funny, Samantha, ha-ha. Don't you worry about me. I have learned my lesson with Robert, so if somebody wants to impress me now, it's gonna be very, very hard." I solidified my intentions. I really thought he was the one for me but those thoughts were disproved when we tried to live together.
"What are you two girls talking about so passionately?" I suddenly heard Roman's deep voice behind me and it startled me so much that I jumped a little. "Woah, calm down, wise woman. Am I a ghost?" he was exactly behind me and I looked up to him since he is like more than 7 inches taller than me. Roman had his eyes down my direction and a big grin on his face. "Tell me what are you two gossiping about. Tell me the drama."
"The discussions me and Samantha were having, Mr. Reigns, are strictly confidential, so I am not telling you. You ain't one of the girls." I sassed him out and he let out a deep chuckle.
"But you are my wise woman. You should tell me everything. No secrets between us." he suddenly tried to act offended.
"This statement, Mr. Reigns, is disputed. There is nowhere in the contract that signifies I should tell you everything about my life and vice versa." I immediately opposed to him.
"Always disagreeing with me" he looked at Samantha with the look of complaint. "Have you ever seen the Wise Man disagreeing with me, Samantha?"
"No, at least not here." she replied.
"Okay but I'm not uncle. Also the agreements are only for the camera. Behind camera, I'm not obligated to." I turned to him and shrugged.
Roman chuckled once again.
"Miss Heyman, I honestly find your attitude so cute. You think you are 'biting' like a snake but honestly, I'm having fun."
"Oh, you think that this is my bad side, Mr. Reigns? I have to apologize then. You are mistaken" I fought back.
"No, I didn't say that this is your bad side. Anyway, we have to start preparing for later, so the gossip session has to end soon, okay?" he suddenly turned all serious. This man's duality is insane. He can throw some random jokes one second and the other second, he turns into a serious man. Is he a Gemini or something?
"Coming after a while" I said and turned around to Samantha.
"I bet you will" I heard him saying under his nose and I turned to him again. When he saw that I heard him, he made that funny "oops" expression.
Until the very moment he got away, Samantha had a look of disbelief in her face.
"See what I'm talking about? Now I'm 100% sure. Soph, I have never...ever in my career seen Roman like this. He is so obvious, oh my god." she put her hand on her mouth.
"Is he a Gemini?" I asked aloud, that duality has one explanation.
"Uuh, I think so, yes." Sam said rather unsurely.
"I knew it. And then people tell me astrology ain't real" I shook my head. "And how old is he?" I asked quietly.
"Let me think...uh, he is a bit older than Trevor. Two or three years something like this. In his late thirties for sure - 38, I believe." my friend suddenly started calculating. "This year he will be 39."
"What?" my jaw was on the floor. "Yeah, no chance. That's a...12 year difference, nuh-uh." I shook my head.
"But you thought about it" she started laughing and poked me.
"About what?" I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. "Anyway I have to go"
"Coming for him" Sam couldn't help but snore.
"Ha-ha so funny" I rolled my eyes.

"I'm here" I shouted after I got in the locker room. The whole Bloodline is there.
"Lil' OG." Jimmy came to greet me with a high-five.
"Lil' OG"? Solo seemed weirded out by the way Jimmy called me.
"Paul is OG. Sophia is his blood, therefore she is lil' OG." Jimmy explained himself and his brother just seemed done.
"She looks nothing like Paul."
"Nah, she has his eyes" Jimmy disagreed with him.
"Ah yes. The saphire blue eyes that I inherited from my late great-grandmother Patricia." I stated.
"You may not look like Paul but for sure sound like him" Jimmy concluded. "So are you ready for later?"
"Mentally kinda, physically absolutely not. I have to start dressing up and everything because after 10 minutes the makeup artist and the hairdresser will be waiting for me." I looked at my watch.
Then reached to the wardrobe to grab the outfit I planned for tonight. It is a two piece costume consisting a blouse like blazer with a deep cleavage but it also has a scarf that is going to wrap around my throat and also a long skirt with a long slit. The color is dark blue with thin light stripes exactly like my uncle's costumes. For shoes I chose beige lacquered high heels.
Where is Roman? He was so insisting for me to come here and now he is nowhere to be found.
"Paul Heyman : female version" Jimmy said in a narrative tone which made me chuckle.
"Oh, they definitely will, trust me" Solo said seriously.
"I don't think the crowd is going to notice the difference" I shrugged.
I heard some steps behind us. I turned around to see, knowing it was definitely Roman.
The view in front of me is just...wow.
Roman fresh out of the shower with his wet, long hair, his big ass tribal tattoo and a white towel wrapped around his torso. Water drips falling onto his body like tears.
"Ah, you're here, Sophia." he said that as if he totally expected me and as if everything is on purpose.
"Yeah." I turned around and faced his cousins because if I stare for longer, I will boost up his ego. Damn, that man is jacked.
"So is the bathroom free? I have to dress quickly." I asked a rhetorical question but I tried to go as quickly as possible, so I don't look at him in any way. I went through like a flash honestly.
"Do you need help?" I heard him yelling at me.
"No?" that was so random of him.
"You said you have to dress up quick and you know two works better than one" he replied and that response caused me to open the bathroom door and he was still sitting there.
Is he out of his mind? Asking me this right in front of his cousins? Unbelievable.
"I'm so sorry, Mr. Reigns but I have to decline this offer." after I finished, I slammed the door.
Roman's POV:
I chuckled at Sophia once again. Damn, I know this woman for a few days yet she got under my skin. The way she looks, the way she talks, the way she walks. I feel betrayed by Paul, to be completely honest. How could he never tell me he has such a pretty niece?
"Uce...what the fuck?" Solo whisper yelled.
"What?" the grin on my face still stayed.
"What do you mean 'what'? You are hitting on Paul's niece" Jimmy called me out.
"Nah, I'm not. We are just joking" I immediately debunked Jimmy's statement and went to the wardrobe to search for my stuff.
"You don't joke like this...ever. Come to your senses, uce. She is way younger than you. How old is she?" Jon asked with a concern.
"I don't know. Probably 25-26." the looks the siblings exchanged between each other were full of shock as if I said she is a minor...come on.
"She is younger than me?" Solo seemed caught off guard.
"That divorce has made you mad." Jimmy started lecturing me. "You see a pretty woman and suddenly you want to sleep with her".
"Uce, you can't fool us. Look at her. A living Barbie doll. Get yourself together immediately." Solo whisper yelled but we all shut up immediately when we heard the door open.
"I don't wanna sleep with her, you perverts. I just like her company, okay? Stop lecturing me." I tried not to yell at them because I don't want Sophia to hear me.

(outfit)
"So how do I look?" Sophia asked, standing in front of me with that business ass little outfit and heels and so much unholy thoughts going in my head of how I bend her over and pull that skirt up and then...
Joseph, you should stop before something rises underneath and completely embarass yourself.
"Amazing" I cleared my throat. "Spectacular" I cleared my throat again, trying not to stare too much at her.
That woman is my dream personified and I don't care what my cousins think. I'm going to have her one way or another.
"Great" Jimmy and Solo threw her big grins and thumbs up.
"Thank you so much, now I'm leaving you guys. Bye. See ya later." she ran to the door and left the room.
"Holy shit" I sat on the couch. "I may be in trouble" I finally confessed.
"Took you long enough." Solo said sarcastically.

the audacity you literally have to make a GENOCIDE SURVIVOR (whose entire culture was decimated by the fire nation) proudly work for the imperial fire nation army in some fuckass au? zutara shippers are never beating the colonial apologism allegations.
Woah, okay, I wasn't expecting this. I'm a firm believer that people should, first and foremost, treat each other on the basis of respect, so I'll do my best to explain this to you, clearly, and with the benefit of the doubt in mind, okay? I'm a nice person like that.
First of all, I'm working under the assumption that you haven't read these posts, and thus don't have all the information I've shared about the AU. I've been as clear about this subject as I can be, especially in my replies but, for the sake of fairness, I'll say it once again again:
I do not condone nor find it moraly correct to justify a victim of war joining the side of the ones responsible for her people's genocide.
I try to view this AU, and war in general, through a mature, realistic lense. Turning Katara into a victim with glorified Stockholm Syndrome isn't really my style. It's honestly insulting and deeply disturbing for me, as a creator, a woman of color born in a country that has a very, very long history of colonialism, and an empathetic human being, that anyone would believe me capable of thinking like that.
That being said, I know I really shouldn't, but would you like me to give you a step by step response?
(...) proudly work for the imperial fire nation army (...)
Okay, like I said before, I'm going to assume you saw only the artwork, didn't read either the tags or the two separate, in depth posts about the characterization and plot in this AU I made literally twenty four hours ago, and drew your own conclusions instead.
First of all: Katara doesn't proudly work for the Fire Nation army. That's her cover, as it is Zuko's. She joined Zuko and his crew, all traitors to the throne and good, honourable people, under the pretense of hunting the Avatar. Truly, they're destroying the Fire Nation military from within. And are, most definitely, not proud soldiers of the Fire Lord.
Katara hates the Fire Nation. But if joining a Fire Nation crew is what she needs to do to end the war, she will do it.
And, honestly, these are not excuses. But context is important, and it's not healthy to draw conclusions from the title instead of actually reading the book, if you know what I mean. It could get you in trouble some day.
And, please, I'm begging you—this has been talked about a lot, and I don't really like drama all that much, so I won't even rise to the accusations of condoning a non consented, colonialist and abuse apologist relationship.
That's just rude.
#dema answers#zutara#hunters au#I apologize if I ever insulted anyone with this AU that I've stitched together painfully and lovingly in long weeks of my time.#I probably came across as rude once or twice in this...#I try to be patient and understanding but sometimes you just have to swallow your moral superiority and go for the kill I guess#I hold no resentment towards Anon. I truly don't.#It's this whole situation that infuriates me#But it's okay#I've got experience dealing with stuff like this irl#So expect an artwork about this very same AU soon#I owe it to myself

could you do a jason grace x fem!reader , where the reader gets a little jealous since Jason gets hit on/asked out a lot by other ppl, and she is a little jealous, but jason just reassures her that she's the only one for him? im just craving some fluffy bf!jason content rn haha
jason grace x fem!reader summary: you get jealous when jason gets flirted with, but he reassures you that you're the only girl for him wc: 987
Being with a guy like Jason wasn't easy, and you'd known that from the day you started dating him, but you didn't expect to feel so insecure about yourself all the time. It wasn't like it was his fault, no, not even close.
You knew he was bound to get flirted with, he was very handsome after all, but it made you so insecure and you felt horrible about yourself, especially when girls that you considered way prettier than you began to flirt with him.
You never wanted to make him feel bad, so you never told him, but keeping it to yourself was beginning to take a toll on you. Typically, you and Jason told each other everything, and you were beginning to feel guilty for not telling him, especially when it was one of the only things on your mind recently.
At camp, everyone knew everyone, so it made you even more frustrated and insecure when other campers flirted with him. It made you think that they thought you were less than them and that they didn't care that Jason was dating you.
Before you began dating Jason, you generally thought that you were at least average, but now you felt like you were the absolute bottom of the barrel, and it was not a good feeling.
You wished so badly that you could voice this to Jason, but he had already dealt with so much that you didn't want to add to that, but apparently he'd caught on to how you were feeling.
The two of you were sat on a log near the campfire, Jason's arm wrapped around your body and your head laying on his shoulder. He was gently rubbing his hand up and down your arm in a soothing motion, subconsciously trying to make you feel better. His efforts to make you feel better had been working until a girl came up to you two, her eyes immediately looking Jason up and down in a flirtatious way.
"Give me a visit sometime, would you, handsome?" She gave him a wink and sauntered off to where she was sitting before.
You felt yourself tearing up and accidentally let out a small sniffle that you hoped Jason didn't hear. Unfortunately for you, he does hear, and gives you a concerned look.
"Honey, what's wrong?" He asks.
You clear your throat. "Um, nothing, excuse me for a second," you quickly say before removing yourself from his embrace and rushing off to your cabin. You hear Jason's footsteps behind you.
"Woah, slow down. Come on, talk to me, please," he pleads.
"Jason, please, I just need to be alone for a second," you say, voice cracking. He sadly nods and lets you go into the cabin.
However, what you didn't realize, was that he sat on the steps outside your cabin, waiting for you to be ready to talk, so when you did come out of the cabin, you screamed in surprise.
"Hey, it's just me," he softly says, reaching his hand out. You intertwine your fingers with his and sit down on the step next to him.
"Hey," you whisper.
"Are you ready to talk now, or do you need more time?" He gently asks.
"I think I'm ready," you say.
There's a moment of silence before you speak again. "I've been dealing with this for a while, but I really didn't want to say anything, because I know you're still dealing with a lot, and I didn't want to add to that," you say, pausing to collect your thoughts.
"You're never a burden, okay? I want to know what you're thinking, always," he says as he pulls you closer to him.
"Okay, well, ever since we started dating, I've been feeling kind of.. well, for a lack of better words, insecure. Almost every day someone comes up to you and flirts with you, acting like I'm not even there, and it just makes me feel inferior to them. This is probably stupid, never mind," you spoke, suddenly feeling very stupid.
"It isn't stupid. I hope you know that no matter how you see yourself, or how you think anyone else sees you, I still think you're the most beautiful girl I've ever seen in the world. You know that I would never even reciprocate their flirting, especially when I have you, you're the most important person in my life and I would do anything for you to be happy, okay?" He states, giving you a gentle kiss.
"Really? You mean it?" You ask, looking up at him.
"Really," he says with a smile. "I love you more than anything in the world."

Hii, don't know if you're still doing them but number 33 celebrity/fan au with Galex?
(ask game)
Alex Albon. Famous actor. Three time Emmy award winner and two time Oscar award winner. One of the greatest actors of their generation, if not all time.
And he was right in front of him. In the flesh. Looking at George expectantly. Which would be mind-blowing in any scenario except for this one.
George was gaping, probably. He should definetley stop staring and should instead grab the credit card that was being held out to him and hand Alex Albon — Alex Albon! — his latte so he can be on his way.
"Everything alright there mate?"
Mate? Alex Albon — THE Alex Albon just called him mate!
He really needed to get his act together.
"Yeah, right, sorry. Didn't mean to uh- nevermind."
He reaches out to grab the card. Entirely too quickly, it turns out, because he instantly fumbles it and watches it fall to the ground.
"Sorry, let me just-" He bends over to grab it. He stands.
His head smacks on the edge of the counter.
"Woah, are you alright?"
Alex Albon was asking him if he was alright. What has the world come to?
"Yeah, yeah I'm fine." George hands the card back over, sliding the drink cup along with it. "Here, on the house." No need to embarass himself further by fighting with the card reader that never worked anyway.
Alex raised an eyebrow.
"Are you sure you're alright? That sounded painful."
George nodded. Collecting what little was left of his composure. "Yeah, all good mate."
"Well in that case…" Alex pulled out a chequebook (who still uses a chequebook these days? George didn't know, but it was somehow still charming.) And scribbled something down on it, passing it over. "Here, on me."
George nodded, carefully taking the slip. Alex nodded back, moving to a table hidden in the corner of the cafe.
He looked at the note in his hand. It was nice, to get a tip even if he didn't deserve it. But of couse Alex Albon was a nice enough person to do such a thing. There was a number written on the front — one entirely too long to be a tip.
"You're joking…" George muttered to himself, flipping the note over. "There's no way…"
The ink on the back was still drying.
"Call me sometime, next drinks on me :)"
#yes i am still doing them even though this took forever#(sorry anon)#hope you enjoy it!!!#asks!!#formula 1 rpf#galex#flux writes

Hi Merchant! I'm someone who is still fairly new to the Cookie Run fandom. And the more I look into it, the wilder it gets. I had come from the Transformers fandom, so I was shocked to see how many people hate on Beast x Ancient. Seeing enemies to lovers in Transformers is very common and not really hated on, so I was like woah… I think It's okay to be uncomfortable with a ship, nothing wrong with that. But the full on hatred towards the shippers of BXA is crazy. A few times it had made me nervous to post my art publicly, as I'm afraid of people thinking I'm a proshipper or some dogwater like that. I really don't want to be compared to something bad like that. I've seen a lot of people say it's Abuser x Victim and that worried me. This fandom is kinda scary, I just wanna ship my burningcheese in peace man. Is it really so bad for me to do that? Not gonna stop me from making the art I want to though. I apologize if this seems all over the place, I'm even nervous typing this out. I don't send people asks much, so this is pretty new for me. (I'm not sure if you've been asked this kind of thing before or not, so I apologize if this is something you get asked a lot.) Also wanted to say I love your stories on Ao3, I had no idea it was you who wrote them at first. You inspire me a lot! .°✭
Omg I know you!!! I love your BurningCheese art sooo much, dude. You have no idea. The one where BS tapes a bunch of sharp objects to cheesebirds's heads to teach them to be destructive is still my favorite lol (also I just really love your art style in general! It's so interesting to me! It scratches an itch in my brain. Make more art pretty please)
I'm really happy you enjoy my works so much ❤️ it really does make my day when people come to tell me things like that. I'm not the greatest writer in the world, but I try my best. People expressing enjoyment means a lot to me
Beast x Ancient hate is crazy and crazy sad, yeah. I feel like Episodes 7 and 8 killed some of it (NO ONE can deny how fucking gay that was lol), but maybe I'm just delusional lol. I, too, wish to enjoy my Enemies to Lovers in peace and quiet. It's fine if you don't like it - huge shame imo, but suit yourself - but the vitriol I've seen being lobbied at the Beast x Ancient community is bonkers. I've gotten my fair share of asks about it, answered and not (I'll answer those eventually I promise, I feel bad leaving asks alonez it's the deep-rooted Catholic guilt), and some of them are extremely sad. There's really no reason to go that far to attack people for liking certain fictional characters together. Block tags and users if you must; anything beyond that is foolish at best and harmful at worst. They're talking cookies. Stop giving a shit and go touch grass lol
You'd think Enemies to Lovers/Hero x Villain/Toxic Yaoi or whichever way you want to put it would be as understood as it is old, but not in this particular fandom apparently lol. I think it's because a huge chunk of it are actual, literal children (and/or, perhaps, childish and immature adults lol) who don't know how to behave, don't have a fully developed Theory of Mind, have a shallow and naïve understanding of morality and don't know how to separate fiction from reality in a reasonable, healthy manner. Regardless, it's best to ignore them and go about your business as usual. Last thing you want to give people like that is attention. Give them an inch, and all that.
So don't be afraid! Post your art! Tell the whole world how much you love BurningCheese! Look at me, I'm cringe as hell and I'm happy about it! I will continue to write my dumb fics and post my dumb doodles and make them kiss and fuck and get married and have two cute kids and no one can do anything about it :D life is so much better when you stop giving a shit about what people have to say about you, especially crybabies with nothing better to do besides throw tantrums about cookies
(also, I, too, like Transformers. TFP is still my favorite series. And that fandom is rife with hero/villain ships (I'm guilty of shipping MegOp myself lol), looking at them and back at the Cookie Run fandom gives me so much whiplash lmao. It's always the cutesy games that bring out the insane asylum escapees)
#I'm genuinely impressed that I've never really gotten shit from anyone outside of maybe 2 comments. Maybe I'm just not famous enough haha#being a small fry is a blessing in disguise in that sense#also. I'm actually pleased that people feel safe/comfortable enough to tell me they like Beast x Ancient. esp if it's because of me lol#my blog is a Beast x Ancient safe haven. y'all will always be ok here. promise#i can't put a stop to all harassment everywhere unfortunately. but you all have my support and solidarity#I love all of my Beast x Ancient homies very much :')#also burningcheese 4ever they belong together don't @ me#cookie run kingdom#burningcheese#goldenspice#beast x ancient#merchant asks

omg adam im literally now watching a friend play fe3h dlc its so fun to see ur guy, what drew you to balthus and whats some of your favorite lines of his? id also loveeee to know more of ur insert, i saw u say itll be a magic user so… do share more if u wish!!
HI NAT AWWWW i've been playing all day but lord knows i'm more than happy to take a break to talk about Balthus. I love him...
I originally played the game in 2020 so I had seen him back then but didn't have the dlc so not thoughts there. But now 5 years later. woah like the gaamee...... I've purchased the dlc and I'm not kidding he showed up on my screen and started talking and that was basically it. Looking at his wiki and seeing his hair grows out made it soo much worse ooooh my god. I'm about 6 or so chapters in and spending more time with him has helped offff course.
I feel like he's such bait for me specifically. Big flirty guy but super shy about romance at the same time. I cant romance him in game because I play male Byleth SIIIIIIGGGGHH but I've read the S support. Too much. Big personalities like his really call to me. Big guys call to me in general especially if I can imagine them hairy LAWL. He's so cute I feel bad at explaining this but he's just so beautiful and amazing okay.... Also insane that you can't romance him as a male when he flirts no matter what. They hate me.
My insert EEEEEKKK I'm still not exaactly sure what all I'll be up to. Gotta play more and relearn the lore el oh el. Magic user is definitely set in stone though I love that stuff. Per usual same insert I'll be using for Dedue but also different. In this case since Balthus is older I was thinking I'm a teacher/teacher's assistant of some sort? I can be recruited and I help with fights. If we get together pre timeskip it's definitely near the end but I'm leaning towards being post timeskip. I like the idea of being split up and nothing was official but feelings were obvious and now that we've met up again we immediately get together. We missed each other a lot okay and we're impatient no more waiting THANKS! But I'm just playing with ideas for now....
Favorite lines!! I don't know all of them but I do have a couple I enjoy. People on discord have seen my ripping my hair out about them. Everyone be my friend on discord okay? Heart
All grabbed from thiiis website thank you again Clara for the link
Two similar ones are "Well? Did you come all the way here just to stare at my rippling abs, or did you want something?" and "Interested in the Majestic King of Grappling's iron bod, yeah? If you want to watch, I'll be training later. Shirtless. You're welcome." SHUT UPPP!!!!!!!!!!!
"It feels like a lifetime ago, but remember when you told me you'd protect me? At the time, I had no idea how to take it. I wasn't sure I could bear letting someone else look after me. I was sure that, in the end, I'd be the one protecting you. That I'd be the strong one. That's how it's always been for me. Guess I was wrong..." I'll never get to experience you Balthus S Support but I Love You.
"True. You could spend your whole life searching and never find a match for Balthus the Great." Looking at his other supports he's so cuute... please.....
okay its 1 am I've been typing for too long. I love him I love talking about him THANK YOUUUU for asking this is so sweetness...... I'm always happy to talk more if you'd like hehehe
#chats#⛓️#THANK YOU AWWWWWWWWWW#seirous about the discord thing anyone can ask#taps mic why r his supports people being kinda mean to him#too much attitude

Howdy howdy y'all, I'm Magnum, and this'll be my first attempt at writing a g/t story in Tumblr, bare with me as I haven't done something like this before:
CW: The protagonist is not really the nicest person (I'll leave it at that), angst (both general and g/t), mentions of death, lots of cursing, talk about sex, self-loathing, I don't really know how to put everything else but basically someone who isn't fond of giants is forced to take care of a giant, take from that as you will.
A Costly Mistake or A New Chance At Redemption?
CH 1/???
Shit sucks, man.
That sentence ran around and around inside Hank's head, and it has been for a while now–a really long while. Life had held him in its painful vice grip for sixteen years now, and it showed no signs of improving whatsoever. Now, sure, Hank managed to live comfortably in a modest house he inherited from his deceased father—a shotgun house, to be specific—which landed him in a neighborhood for humans only. There was never the risk of a giant strolling in and just being a natural disaster just by walking.
That was good. He didn't ever want to deal with their kind.
Was it that Hank was literally the only member of his family still alive? Was it that he was basically a shut-in at the age of thirty-six? Was it that, despite the fact he was considered attractive by most and was a relatively healthy and tall man standing at 6'5", he wasn't in a relationship with anyone? Was it that he's a smoker who is trying to quit and has to resort to chewing on gum to quit his habit for good? Was it that, even at his age, he's never done or lived up to complete any goals throughout his life? Was it that he was an asshole through and through and was just vindictive and mean to most people?
The more he tried to find an answer to his problem, the more Hank began to feel tired. Here he was, in his living room lying down on his couch and not moving a single muscle, not doing or accomplishing anything while the world kept on spinning, and life went on. The television wasn't on. There was nothing going on around the house, and the state of it wasn't really bad, per se–there wasn't anything that needed cleaning since he, ignoring the type of person he was, chose to live a despicable life in a clean house rather than a dirty one.
His wavy black hair was a mess, bags were under his droopy eyes, he frankly looked pissed—which wasn't new for Hank—and he didn't even want to cook anything today.
So takeout for the fourth day in a row it was then!
Hank grabbed his phone that had been on the table in front of him and turned it on, unlocking it and tapping on the mystical food delivery app: Uber Eats. "Let's see..." The man grumbled as he scrolled to see what he would order today. Noodles from the Chinese food joint a few blocks away? Nope. A pizza pie from that Italian restaurant downtown? Already had that yesterday. Burgers and fries from that small-time burger joint around the corner two blocks away? Too basic. What about fried chicken? Now that didn't sound half bad.
Fried chicken sounded like a good meal to Hank right about now, and there were a few spots to order from. So, he might as well browse the options and see who he'd order from today. "Clucksters... Los Pollos Hermanos (woah a Breaking Bad reference no way)... Hail–" Hank froze mid sentence as he read the name of the third restaurant that served fried chicken.
That name. Her name.
Hailey Branham.
Memories from his high school graduate days flooded Hanks mind, and he found himself dropping his phone and stumbling off of the couch, "Where is that FUCKING gum!?" He mumbled to himself as frantically began to look around his house for his chewing gum. It was a quick search that had him finding it on a counter in the kitchen, and he quickly popped it open and tossed a piece of gum into his mouth before chewing on it.
Hailey Branham. That name brought a lot of memories he didn't want to remember, not like they were bad memories, just memories he'd rather move on from. It was a girl, shocker, who he was dating at the time, even more of a shocker. Even though he pushed those memories to the back of his mind, seeing her name made them come back in full detail, and he remembered them vividly like they were yesterday: their first date; their first kiss; their first argument; their first "breakup"; their first time ever having sex; their first double date; the last time they ever had sex; their actual breakup. Thinking about that last bit made Hank take out another piece of gum to chew on, throwing it into his mouth to do just that. "Fuck..." He cursed under his breath, the chewing he made was the only other sound in the house that he could hear. Any amount of appetite Hank had was lost as he lingered on the past further and further, "I'm such a damn disgrace!" That sentence came out as more of a scoff than anything, and that was what he saw himself as; a damn disgrace.
Without missing a beat, he turned around and stomped his way into his bathroom, not even bothering to close the door behind him as he propped himself in front of the mirror. His hands held onto edges the glass basin as he took a long hard glare at his reflection, "You sicken me, shithead, y'know that?! Look at what you've fucking become, you ain't worth an iota of the damn dirt that giants step on... you ain't nothing, you're no one, you pushed everyone who cared away 'cuz you're a scared little pussy!" This wasn't helping, not at all, but Hank couldn't bring himself to stop, "Your whole family is gone and you dumped the only woman in your life who loved you simply because you had no love for her left, what kind of bullshit is that!?" Why couldn't he stop? "Go on, say something, you punk ass coward! Say something–ANYTHING!!!" He yelled at his reflection, waiting just for it to say something, tell him what he wanted to hear it tell him–what he wanted to hear himself just admit it, admit to everything. The more he reflected on that, the more he felt every part of him boiling over.
"MotherFUCKER-" His right hand stopped holding onto the edge of the sink. He reared it back and balled it up into a fist before he punched the mirror in front of him. Cracks spread and splintered from where his punch landed. Shards began to fall onto the ground and shatter into smaller pieces of glass. Blood started to pour out of his fist as bits and pieces of glass ended up lodged in his knuckles and parts of his fingers. "..." He glared at his shattered reflection in the broken mirror for a moment longer before the sting from the broken glass in his hand began to register, "Ow..." The man mumbled as he turned the faucet on with his other hand by switching the lever. Water poured from the faucet, and he lowered his bleeding hand into the stream of lukewarm water, washing off the blood slowly.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
A knock at the door brought Hank to pulling his hand from beneath the faucet. Most of the blood still hadn't stopped flowing, so he tried to remedy that by taking a towel and wrapping it around his hand to absorb the blood, "Go away!" He shouted loud enough so whoever was outside his front door could do just that...
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK!!!
This was starting to get on Hanks' nerves, "Fuck off!" He yelled again in a much more vulgar manner, hoping it would work this time.
. . . . .
Which it apparently did! Hank sighed, relieved that whoever it was took the hint and left him alone...
...Or so he thought.
"Hank Sheppard, we are with the G.H.F.A.C—Giants and Humans Financial Aid and Care—please, come on out nicely so we can talk, or we'll be forced to make our way into your home by force!" A man's voice called out from the other side of the door, and while he wanted to respond by insulting the guy who was bothering him, Hank didn't want to risk whoever these clowns were breaking down the door just to talk with him, so he quickly made his way towards the front door to unlock and open it. "Woah!" The sight before him caught Hank way off guard; two mini-giants, a man and a woman, stood in front of and towered over him. Both giants stood somewhere above twelve feet tall, with the woman seemingly being slightly taller than the man. They both looked different, obviously, with the man being around the same age as Hank with a stern expression on his otherwise youthful face and blonde hair kept in a slicked back hairstyle, his outfit consisted of modest navy blue business casual attire, while the woman, on the other hand, was younger, possibly in her late twenties, and had a much kinder expression on her generally soft face and with dark brown hair that was unkempt and medium length, her outfit, instead of looking professional, was much more casual as she donned a simple white button up shirt with gray trousers and flats.
All that Hank could do was gawk at the two mini-giants like an idiot until the guy snapped his massive fingers, "Hey, snap out of it!" Which he promptly did, "Fuck–sorry uhhh... why are you two here?" Hank asked them, his left eyebrow raising out of confusion as he wondered about what workers from an organic such as theirs wanted from him, "I know my partner said that we would talk if you came outside, which you did, thankfully, but you're gonna have to come with us to HQ so we can discuss an urgent matter that you're a part of..." That absolutely caught him off guard yet again; what DID the G.H.F.A.C want with him?
Taking a look down at himself, Hank felt like he was a bit underdressed to go take this visit to the G.H.F.A.C building, and it seemed as if the two giants in front of him thought the same as well, "Before we go any further, let us introduce ourselves: I am Connor McIntyre and this is my partner, Paige Butler–" "Hi!" "–like I mentioned earlier, we are here on official business in regards to you. Now, we'll give you three minutes to put something on that's the bare minimum appropriate; if you try to run away or escape through a window, we will catch you and drag you along with us to the company building in the state that you're in..." The woman–Paige, added onto what Connor said, "And if you're not out here by then, we'll force ourselves into your house and carry you out, are we clear?" She placed her hands on her hips as now both mini-giants looked down at Hank just waiting to see what he'd do in this situation.
Now, Hank wasn't a prideful man. He knew when shit couldn't go his way no matter what he tried to do. So, he simply complied, "Alright, fine!" Despite his willingness to cooperate, it was quite obvious it was a willingness that came from hesitation. Walking back into his house, the man let out a really dragged out sigh as he thought about one simple thing: what would really be appropriate for this occasion? The longer he thought about, the more he wasted his time that was given to him, so he simply said, "Fuck it." And went further into his home and into his room.
"Hmmm..." There was not a damn piece of clothing that looked appropriate to wear for something like this. All he could come up with in such allotted time was a stained white shirt and a teal diamond quilted bomber jacket with gray cargo pants and a pair of brown boots. It was something, at least, and if that wasn't the bare minimum by the two giants' standards, they'd better deal with it. Hank quickly walked down the hall and back to his front door, where he took a step outside and looked up at Connor and Paige, who stared back at him with mixed looks on their faces; Connor looked taken aback by how Hank was dressed, while Paige looked like she was holding back a laugh at the sight of his chosen outfit, "You really don't own any–" Paige was cut off quickly by Hank, who didn't want to deal with being questioned about his choice of clothing, "No, I don't, alright?" He scoffed at her, and he was met with a glare by the mini-giantess, who no longer felt like laughing or trying to stop herself from laughing at him since she simply couldn't fathom that she just got cut off by someone like him.
Just keep things professional, that was best for everyone involved, and it would have to be kept that way, regardless of what happened throughout this whole ordeal. "You ever been in a car for mini-giants or giants in general, Hank?" Connor asked Hank, knowing full well that the answer was quite obvious, "No." A quick and no-nonsense answer from the smaller man as he gazed at the giant with a very judgmental expression. Everything suddenly went upended when Paige suddenly bent down and grabbed Hank before standing back up straight as she now held him in her hand, "There's always a first time for everything, ain't there?" She asked him with a smug tone and look on her face, "Hey woah what the fuck–" His shock and surprise was cut off as the two mini-giants turned around and began to walk away from his house. By this point, there seemed to be a bunch of his neighbors and passersby that were watching this all transpire, and all Hank could do was stay there, suspended in the air and held by the giant, manicured hand of Paige, who began to hum a tune to herself as all three of them made their way to a massive black coupe model car that took up half of the street and was as big—if not bigger—than the houses in the neighborhood. Although the situation was all sorts of strange and shocking and terrifying, Hank really couldn't bring himself to do anything but just be wide-eyed as this whole experience was new to him.
Now sure, he's heard stories about how when giants—of any size/category—pick a human up, especially a human who's never really been picked up by a giant up until then, and how they said it was this whole perspective defying and that it brought all sorts of things that would hit you like a truck... but all Hank felt was embarrassed; he was literally being held like an action figure, and it sucked! He'd have to suck it up as they all got to the car, Paige made her way around the vehicle until she reached the drivers' side door. The door was casually opened, meaning they left it unlocked the whole time. It made sense why they did it, it wasn't like they ran the risk of having the car getting stolen for... obvious reasons.
The first thing that surprised Hank wasn't just how much bigger everything was, that was a give—he was still taken aback by that, regardless—it was that there was a chair, a human sized chair, fixed on a small platform in between the driver and passenger seat, "Everything will be fine friend, just make sure to buckle up and it'll be smooth sailing from here on out." Paige reassured Hank, who frowned at the placement of the chair he was supposed to be sitting in. Not much would come out of complaining, so he let himself get placed next to the chair, in which he then sat down on it and fastened the seatbe–where the hell is the seatbelt? His eyes looked around before falling on an indent at both sides of the chair, one of which had a slot with a shiny metal object poking out and the other had an empty slit. "Oh." It was the best he could really say as he just took his seat and did his best to buckle up. It took Hank some time, and it was clear that Connor and Paige were enjoying every second of it as he could practically feel their eyes staring at him from both sides, and it didn't help that Paige was snickering openly.
Finally, he managed to buckle himself up, and it took a moment of hearing the giantess behind him to stop snickering before she put the keys into the ignition and turning them, starting the car before she began to drive. She gave him no time to adjust to the new environment as she began to drive the giant car casually, "So would either of you mind telling me why I–" Connor cut him off as he way ahead of him, "Hailey Branham. That name ring any bells?"
For fuck sakes! He thought to himself. Why were they bringing her up? What did she have to do with this?! Hank couldn't bring himself to respond in any other way besides a brief head nod, "She's dead." That sentence hit him, it hit him hard. It didn't even take long for it to register in his head before he brings his hands up to his face and covers his eyes. While it seemed as if he was about to cry, Hank literally couldn't bring himself to do so; sure, he felt sad—and extremely so—about this shocking revelation, but it's been sixteen whole years since they split up. "When did this happen?" He asked calmly, not showing any signs of tearing up or crying, "A week ago, Hank." That revelation just made things worse for him on so many levels... but why? Even though it saddened him deeply, he didn't feel like he could feel grief over her unfortunate death. After all, he pushed her away all those years ago, so did he truly deserve to feel sad over her passing? That made him think deep and hard, but the more he thought about it, the more he just mentally beat himself up for just how pathetic he was. He didn't know what to feel anymore, but he wouldn't have to dwell on it any longer as the car came to a halt, which lurched him forward, "We're here." Paige said, snapping Hank out of his gloomy funk as he looked straight ahead and saw quite a massive building. Both giants and humans stood outside, walking in and out the front rotating doors, socializing and enjoying themselves, regardless of the visible size differences they all shared. The tallest of giants that he saw outside the building stood thirty feet tall, and there he was, casually chatting up a storm with a human male who must've been an average five feet and nine inches tall. He continued to look at everything in front of him until he felt something gently tap his shoulder, "Come on, you can walk the rest of way to where you're needed, can you?" Connor asked him with a raised brow, getting a simple, "That's fine by me." As a response before he unbuckled his seatbelt. Of course, Hank didn't plan to climb down the interior of the car just to have to climb out of the car to get on the ground, and the mini-giants didn't expect him to as Paige picked him up once more to carry him out of the car, "Alright, Hank, it'll be a quick stroll inside, I assure you it'll be over before you know it." She said as she took a few steps forward, stepping over the curb before setting him down on the ground.
No more words were spoken between the two giants and Hank as they walked towards the building. Although Connor and Paige kept eyes looking straight ahead, Hank couldn't help but glance at all the humans and giants who intermingled so casually. They would all soon stop being what he focused on once he walked into the G.H.F.A.C building right behind Paige and Connor. The frigid indoor air hit him hard, and he was thankful he put on a jacket, even though it did a mediocre job at shielding him from the cold. "Hey Kathy, we're back!" Hank looked to his side, where the two giants had stopped in front of what was the buildings front desk as Paige spoke to someone sitting behind it, "Why hello Connor and Paige, did your little trip go well?" The voice of a much older woman could be heard from behind the desk, and although Hank was literally the same height as the desk, he couldn't make out what this Kathy looked like until, "It did, we have him right here and he caused no trouble whatsoever so that's a relief." Paige said that with a relieved tone—Paige said with a relieved tone, as if facing resistance was a common occurrence in this job—before Kathy leaned over the desk to look at Hank, and he could finally see who she was; an older woman, which was already obvious, in her mid to late fifties or possibly even in her early sixties, with noticeable wrinkles and a very round face, her hair wasn't completely gray as there was still subtle amounts of black hair on her head, she was around the same height as Connor and Paige, maybe a bit shorter than the both of them, and she wore a sky blue colored dress with white coat. "Hello there, young man. You must be Hank Sheppard!" Kathy extended a hand out towards Hank, expecting a handshake, which he hesitated to give her due to the size difference before just going through with it to get it over with. Her hand completely engulfed his as they shook hands, and it was a very strange sensation for him, but the same couldn't be said for her as she introduced herself, "I'm Kathy Reeves, and as you can see, I work the front desk for G.H.F.A.C.–I can't wait to see more of you in the future!" She was energetic for her age, she had that spunk for an older woman. That was honestly surprising to Hank, who felt it necessary to respond, "Y-Yeah hi, same goes for me..." He told her as they both continued to shake hands for what felt like minutes to him but only went on for a few seconds as she pulled her hand away.
Kathy leaned back and sat back down, disappearing from Hank's view, "He'll be in room zero–seven, everything's already prepped so you can walk him in and it will all begin immediately." She told the pair, who nodded silently before swiveled their bodies to the left and began to walk off, and Hank quickly followed close behind. However, when they all three of them took their first few steps, Kathy called out, forcing them to stop in their tracks, "I'm sorry, Paige, but Connor will transport Hank to the room, you're still needed to attend you know who." Both Hank and Connor noticed her wink conspicuously at Paige, and all Paige did in response was sigh in defeat, "Aww man, well alright." The giantess looked down at Hank and flashed a small smile, "Guess this is where we go separate ways for now, but don't worry, we'll be seeing more of each other in the future." Paige playfully stuck her tongue out at him and winked, letting out a snicker before she turned completely around and walked off to deal with whatever or whoever she had business with. "See ya, Connor." She called out as she walked around the corner, "Catch you later, Paige." He responded before he looked down at the man of the hour, "Come on then, the room is just down the hall." Both men went back to walking, Hank having to put in extra effort just to keep up with Connor, but it wasn't detrimental as they both arrived at the door to room zero–seven, "Everything will be explained to you inside," Connor opened the door as he spoke, the crack becoming wider and wider as the metal door was pushed open. Hank was about to walk inside before Connor spoke once more, "And Hank? Don't be, y'know, you, please?" It came off as slight pleading for him to not be a dick, "No promises, man." He annoyedly scoffed as he walked through the crack of the open door, and as he entered the room, he could've sworn to have heard him call him something before closing the door behind him.
Whatever, not like now was the time to dwell on something like that since now was the moment he had been waiting for with bated breath, "Mr. Sheppard, welcome to the G.H.F.A.C. headquarters, please, have a seat and we will begin in just a moment." The voice came from an unassuming man that was sat down in the middle of the room on the end of a wooden table. The whole room itself looked just as unassuming; taking on the appearance of a basic office meeting room, only without any windows. Quite frankly, it looked more like an interrogation room, if anything. The man, a British man, from the sound of his accent, had his fingers intertwined and his hands on the surface of the wooden table. Right next to him—or more like at both corners in the farthest side of the room—stood two giants, not mini giants, full-blown giants. Both of them were the exact same height, fifty–four feet tall, a man and a woman. And both of them were very well-built, their muscles were visible under the uniforms they wore, which consisted of a similar getup to what Paige wore, only with an added protective and quite possibly bulletproof vest and an earpiece in one ear. They both stared at Hank with an unwavering gaze, which uneased him since he knew that all it would take is one of them to use their pinky finger to restrain him. This seemed a bit like overkill, and the man who sat at the table seemingly read his mind, "Don't worry about them, they both serve as part of our security to ensure our unruly clients don't get heated and/or physical, I'm sure you understand?" The man asked Hank, who gave momentary glances at the otherwise statue–like giants whose eyes were the only parts of their bodies to move as they followed him with each movement he made, "Yeah, sure." Hank responded as he made his way to the chair that was set for him and taking a seat in it, "I've brought you some gum since I've found out about your current attempt at quitting smoking by chewing gum, want some?" That question confused Hank, and he didn't know how to react to an organization knowing about him trying to quit the habit as he watched man sitting across from him take out a pack of sour apple flavored chewing gum and set it down on the table, "How did you–y'know what, forget it, I'll take some." He reached over and went to grab it, and for a brief moment, just a brief moment, he saw one of the fingers on the male giant twitch in the corner of his eye, "Thanks..." He seemingly thanked the man, but was really thanking the giant for not straight up pinning him to the ground with his trigger happy finger. He, of course, got no response from the mountain of man who simply continued to stare at him alongside his female coworker.
Stress wasn't something he was really feeling at the moment, but he kept it in hand just in case; he felt like he was going to be chewing a lot of gum by the time this was over. "Before we get started, my name is William Davenport, but you can call me Bill since that's what my coworkers call, isn't that right fellas?" Bill asked the two giants behind him, whose responses were nothing more than uncaring "Mm-hm..." Their responses were unconvincing to Hank, who couldn't really give a shit. "See, I told you!" Bill suddenly told Hank as if he hadn't believed him–which was the truth, "Whatever you say, Bill. Can we just talk about why I'm here?" The more time he spent in this building, and in this room in particular, the more he wanted to be back home, resting on his couch and doing jack shit. "Oooohh you're eager, I like that! You and I will be great friends, I can already tell!" Bill said with a wide smile before he leaned to his left and bent down to grab something before going back to sitting straight and placing a blue folder on the table. He opened it and brought it up to his face to read it, "Hank Sheppard, aged thirty–six and currently lives alone at the address of 473 Fleetwood Drive in the human–only neighborhood of Fleetwood. You are the only one in your family still alive and you show signs of depression, self–loathing, short temperance, and other such mental—" He was cut off as soon as he heard Hank start chewing on gum, "–moving on..." Bill mumbled, "Thanks..." Hank was grateful that he knew how to take a hint; he knew he was a fucked up individual, he just didn't want to hear it from anyone else. "A year after graduating from high school, you got into a relationship with one—" Bill got cut off as Hank practically told the rest of that whole story, "Hailey Branham, a Native American chick who was nice and cute, and who thought the same way of me, as well. We dated for ten months before I broke up with her due to differences between us that became too apparent." He lied about that last part and he knew damn well that he did, he just didn't care, and Bill knew that, and yet, he didn't care either, "Right before you two broke up, Hailey found out she was three months pregnant and she was due to give birth to her giant daughter six months after after you two broke up," Hank stopped chewing, he just stopped everything as he tried frantically to process the words that came out of Bill's mouth. Pregnant? Child? Giant? Daughter? "Hailey raised that child on her own for sixteen years and she loved her with every ounce of her being. Her daughter—and your daughter as well—has grown up to be a nice girl with loads of friends, good grades, a compassionate heart and–" In the midst of his sentence, Hank cut him off suddenly, "Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait shut up shut up shut the fu—wait a damn minute!" This was all going too fast for him, and he didn't like it, not one bit. So much new information was sprung onto him and he was supposed to just take it? There were so many questions he had barreling through his head, and he had no idea where to start, "I know this is a lot to take in, and I'm willing to answer any questions you might have, but—" Hank cut Bill off once more to bring something up that completely invalidated all he said, "Hailey isn't a giant, she was a normal human woman." Bill didn't seem to have anything to say, and instead, chose to listen to what Hank had to say, "She was not a damn giant—sure she was tall for a woman, she was six–foot–two for Christ sakes, but she was not a fucking giant!"
As it turns out, I've hit the limit, so this'll be continued in part two, so keep an eye out for that!

Rules post and how to Request
Here you can find rules on how to request both short headcanon posts as well as one shot requests! I highly recommend that you read through this post if you're new in order to get a feel for what to expect from this blog! If any clarification is needed don't be afraid to ask questions!
First of all: Welcome to the Silly Corner!
Here you can find canon x reader posts for all sorts of fandoms! As of now I only write canon x reader- any oc x canon or canon x canon is more than likely a prize request for a raffle (keep you eyes out for those!)
You can find both short headcanon posts and one shots! Woah!
The queue:
With few exception, this blog runs on a queue! Usually two to three posts will be posted in a day- unless of course something has prevented me from writing. This is mostly to pace my posting to keep from flooding a tag... and in general this blog! So when sending in a request keep this in mind! In cases where the queue is long it will be bumped up so (hopefully) everyone will see their request in a timely manner!
Will Write:
Fluff and angst and platonic! This blog also isn't just romance- if you want something where two characters absolutely loathe each other that's allowed too! We love exploring dynamics here!
AUs are also allowed however if you are asking for an AU someone else has made, I ask that you at least provide a source where I can find info! Though... admittedly if it's a large intricate AU the chances of the request being taken on are lowered
Lightly suggestive requests are allowed HOWEVER! While I have yet to draw a specific limit, I will notify you when a request teeters too close to NSFW. In which case I will offer the chance to send the request to my NSFW blog (you MUST have your age listed or you will be be blocked. Asking to be unblocked here will result in a block on this blog as well)
Readers with traits! Though I ask that you limit to a small handful as too many can become overwhelming. I'd say max three or four depending is fine! I do NOT write ocs on a regular basis. You may ask for a reader that shares some traits with your oc though so long as you're mindful of the trait limit
One last thing! Some characters are strictly limited to platonic! These characters are typically marked in their respective masterlist!
Will NOT Write:
Really it never hurts to ask. I'm open to writing all sorts of topics but it truly depends on two things: the context/what's being asked, and my current mental state. HARD no's will be requests where the character being shipped with the reader (whether romantically or otherwise) is an active abuser. Or vise versa.
On top of this active SH is not allowed, but anything that is healed and/or off screen is mostly fine. Do not ask for a canon watching the reader harm in the moment. Suicide follows similar rules.
NO concealed kink. I may not be the most observant but it can be easy to tell when someone is trying to subtly ask for kink hcs for themselves. I do not kinkshame, however I ask that you ask for my NSFW so I can write it over there (once more your age MUST be included or I will block both here and there if you push or find it on your own)
General no hard stuff- r!pe, inc3st, ect.
Generally I write a lot of stuff and will try to let you know when I am uncomfortable with something. But here's a short list of common requests that will get denied that don't exactly get covered in the above: human!readers for cult of the lamb specifically, any requests displaying active violence and/or death/death adjacent (IE. Abstraction from tadc) scenarios happening to child characters (that said ghost children characters ARE allowed so long as the violence is not actively depicted)
As of 4/30/2025 I no longer take character based readers UNLESS I already know the character they are being based off of. If you are unsure you can always ask, I will say if I don't know them well enough. This is mostly due to the fandom wiki becoming more and more of a hassle to use.
How and Where to request:
So long as the status in my bio says it's open you're free to send in requests! All requests must be sent in through my inbox. Any sent through a comment, reblog, or PM will not be answered. The only exception is if for one reason or another the inbox needs to be open (ex. there was a supposed raid and the inbox was closed out of safety)
I ask that you limit your characters to 3 to 4 characters! There are some cases where it will only be limited to 1 for a post (alphabet prompt posts and most one shots). This is to keep myself from becoming overwhelmed! One big post is one thing but it piles up when there's several!
You may send in about three requests/asks, and I ask that you be mindful to not spam or rush me. If you feel your ask was eaten you are free to ask about it! Sometimes tumblr sucks- other times my work pace is slowed down... never hurts to ask!
Naturally, one shots take longer to finish!
You can also find a list of what fandoms I currently/have ever written for in my pinned!
Additional thing- if possible please please 🙏 summarize a request and shorten it-- it's harder to keep track of longer asks in terms of detail if it's a wall of text 😭💔
General boundaries:
No spam- both in request and pestering. It clogs the inbox and makes it harder to navigate, especially if it's not a request
If you had been blocked on my NSFW and come over here to ask to be unblocked you will be blocked here
While my AO3 is currently SFW as of 3/5/2025, it will eventually be mixed. I preemptively ask that anyone under 18 does not interact with the AO3. There is nothing special over there, all of my SFW fics are cross posted here. While it will be harder to monitor that, I ask that you respect this boundary
As of 4/30/2025 the only way to gain easy access to the AO3 is to directly ask me. Please have your age in bio before asking otherwise I will refuse to hand it out
Please do not guilt trip me for not writing your request/getting to it faster. You will get one warning and then your request will be cancelled.
I can't believe this needs to be said but do not follow me to my other blogs to ask about your request status. I do these for fun and for free, you have no right to follow me to my personal spaces to harass me.

I'm reading this book bc escapism
And i wanna get through it bc of the haunted house past
But i despise the two main characters
One is a fucking brat who flies off the handle and wants to act belligerent <---> violent when she so much as HEARS the word "ghost" bc of Her Trauma
No one else have ever had a traumatic thing happen, just her. Even the previous tenant who was a kid in that house, who watched her parents go insane and her kid brother blankly try to hang himself, has 0 trauma. Only MC has trauma. Her trauma is the worst trauma to have ever existed. Vietnam vets go "woah, that's harsh," when she says her mommy and daddy had seances with weird people sometimes when she was a kid.
While her cardboard boyfriend must hide all of his Christian Beliefs (whatever those are, we never find out because of girlfriend's bullshit) and Be In Love with girlfriend even though she's abusive as shit
But he KEEPS trying to prove how good he is and how much he loves her by doing truly basic stuff like offering to help her *get electricity via a generator* in a broken down house, or help her pay some bills because she has no job, no car, *not even cell phone reception,* and no way to get any of these things
SO SHE FLIPS OUT AND TELLS HIM HE'S BEING MALICIOUS AND CONTROLLING
he is trying to save her, even just for ONE night, from muderous ghosts which absolutely cannot be explained away
And she flips out, directly telling him that she does not care about his comfort
As in, exact statement
She has said multiple times that she doesn't care about him but then also whips around like "thank you for taking the day off work, you didnt have to, i love you"
FOR ONCE he gets angry and leaves, and then she laments sending him away... for reasons that entirely come back to herself. 0 mention of "wow, i'm sorry i hurt him, he doesn't deserve that, he wasn't doing that at all..." NO it's "i'm sorry i sent him away, i wasn't so scared when he was here to cuddle me." Incredibly selfish.
And then when things get Really Bad, she only apologises because SHE wants things
And he shows up again
Like, is he codependent? Only if she wants him to be.
And also an aside, i swear to god, if darcy coates mentions how much mara loves this guy's muscles one more god damn time
Every time she mentions his muscles, i add more muscles to his character, and now i think goku is her boyfriend

strangetown x alien stage!AU notes. thoughts on the Grunts
it started just because "woah sims 2 has aliens too". and it doesn't really end up as something because i lack some thoughts on many in this AU and in all my friend groups i'm the only one who's both into TS2 and ALNST. i wanted to maybe draw something for the sake of pretty post, but i'm tired of delaying stuff just because it needs some cover art.
so what? ->
in general, if you don't even know what ALNST is - we have aliens of different races (so named segyein), who keep humans as dehumanized pets (!) and sometimes put them into showbusyness. the example of it is the titular "alien stage/ALNST" show that is a survival singer contest. also many of participants, by wish of their guardians/owners, were trained from their childhood in so called "Anakt Garden" (Anakt is a name of a local deity humans believe in btw), that is kind of artificial "paradise" with imitated sky, grass, trees, rivers, robot fish, vague care of mental state of kids and unhinged medical experiments. so, humanity is basically enslaved and treated like cats and dogs or even worse, but we have some rebel humans, who are considered terrorists in the alien society.
about the Grunts. i had a thought Buzz is an important human rebel, infamous for his methods (at least in education, since PSP shows he's pretty skilled as a commander, his bio be like "runs division 47 like a well-oiled machine"). but one day the base was raided, and now we have probably dead Lyla and three kidnapped kids. and Tank was probably circa ten in the moment. gotta say, i don't really know what's Buck's situation, because he is notably younger than Tank and Ripp and probably wouldn't end up in Anakt Garden on the same class with them. but! about other two. Tank had a hard time, being separated from his family by force, even though Buzz definitely was pretty cruel to him sometimes. they're human rebels and they always have to fight for their lives and for possibility of freedom, so Buzz tried to raise his sons as warriors from the very beginning. might sound like a noble goal, but they still were little kids who were living in grave danger from the moment they were born. And Buzz definitely wasn't patient. some time after the raid Tank ended up being bought by a pretty violent alien. maybe he was kinda like ALNST Till - a kid with a "potential", which his new owner wanted to explore. or just to re-educate that definitely mentally unhealthy human cub. but Tank kept rebelling restlessly, since aliens are his natural enemies (pretty based in the ALNST setting though), and always ended up in isolator or stuff like that. the warpaint is another one mark of his rebellion and often gets removed from his face by force. Tank still idolizes Buzz, and the feeling gets harder from the trauma and Tank missing him very much. he probably perceives Buzz as a perfect image in his head, that taught him to Fight, Survive, etc, and can't really recall all those times he wasn't neither perfect or "good". all he was taught about motivates Tank to keep his "war" even when it doesn't make sense and is pretty dangerous, so he often ends up in isolator or aliens try to "fix" him. but what definitely distinguishes Tank from Buzz is the fact that Tank (at least yet) isn't the one to lead people, so he tends to scare other AG kids away with his behaviour. like, yeah, in this AU Tank is actually even WORSE with it than the original. expectable, since he's THAT traumatized and literally dehumanized. but Tank wasn't the only one in Anakt Garden. we still have Ripp. when i tried to tell the very concept of AU to my friends, someone gave me an idea that Ripp's owner/guardian might be PT9 (but i don't really know what's about the Smiths in general though). so we can consider him a lucky one, a pet of a "nice?" alien, who has friends and people who care about him. and he's just a kid, who tries to enjoy even a little bit of comparatively "easy" and "peaceful" life after his childhood and the trauma of getting separated from both parents. just a kid, who doesn't want to live his life as a war, since he hadn't a choice from the beginning. and i had a thought that probably it's partially Ripp's fault they were caught (can't really blame a scared kid whos' under 10 years, though), or at least Tank likes to blame Ripp. and in this AU it's a reason why Tank is that violent to Ripp - we can say it might be blaming for that incident, "betrayal" (like, dad taught them pretty much otherwise, but Ripp doesn't do anything with his status as a pet/slave even if his master seems kind enough) or just some kind of envy for better living. there's no Ripp's fault in it, but Tank seem to need a scapegoat and a way to justify himself beating his own brother.
