This is one of my favorites I've written, so I'm just bringing it back around!

Junpei Yoshino - Water Fountain

Water Fountain ~ Alec Benjamin

✧･ﾟ: * Character/Pairing ~ Junpei Yoshino x gn!reader ~

✧･ﾟ: * Content ~ JJK Season 1 Spoilers (I guess? If you know Junpei you probably know what I’m talking about but just to be safe), childhood friends pining, bullying implication, character death ~

✧･ﾟ: * Type ~ Songfic, oneshot, angst ~

✧･ﾟ: * Author’s Note ~ I feel like Junpei has an Alec Benjamin vibe, so this ended up happening. I love him with my whole heart, and we were robbed. ~

He told me that he loved me by the water fountain

He told me that he loved me and he didn't love them

And that was really lovely 'cause it was innocent

But now he's got a cup with something else in it

“Hey, Yoshino!” Dark eyes looked up at you, the panic in them fading as Junpei recognized you. He nods in acknowledgement, before moving over and motioning at the empty space. Since you started at Satozakura, the two of you haven’t had very similar schedules, but each year you find a break where the two of you meet up near the fountain, and since this semester you have the same free period, you both hang out and work together there. The two of you have been close since middle school, but he’s gotten a lot quieter over the years.

No matter how he seems at school, when the two of you are together he lightens up so much, rambling about whatever horror franchise just came out, or laughing at your stupid jokes. It’s a lot quieter there than the other common areas, which makes it an ideal place for the introverted goth, and he can usually loosen up a lot more when the two of you stay there. But even as removed as you were from the rest of the students, his eyes keep flicking toward any movement or noise, almost as if he was ready to take off at any moment. After a stray cat running by nearly sent him into the fountain, you decide to bring it up “Rough day Jun? You seem pretty jumpy today…”

His hand rushes to adjust his bangs again, before sighing, “Nothing outside of the normal school crap. Nothing to worry about, really. Let’s just focus on the paper, okay?” He says the last part softly, almost to himself more than you. You smile softly and nod, letting a few minutes pass before saying “You know you can talk to me, right? If you ever need anything” A confused expression passes over his face, and he looks away, “I’ll keep that in mind.” You meant to keep the conversation going, you’re worried about him, but he seemed to put a stop to that there.

After working in silence, not unusual for the two of you, Junpei looks up at you, saying “You’re the only one here that I care about, Y/N, the rest of them are worthless.” His face flushes pink when he realizes what he said, but your heart flutters when he does, almost so much you miss the darker tone to the rest of his sentence. You blurt out the first “I really care about you Junpei…” and hearing it come out of your own mouth just makes you blush more, as well as his pink turn cherry red, and so you hurriedly try to cover with a “of course I do, we’ve been friends for so long of course I would. Care about you I mean. It’s only natural after so long, right?” He starts to slide his stuff back into his bag, “Yeah, right. We… should probably start getting to class, so, I’ll see you later.” You put your things away, and start walking across campus, mind racing with the near confession that you just admitted to your best friend.

It's getting kind of blurry at a quarter-past-ten

And he was in a hurry to be touching her skin

He's feeling kind of dirty when he's dancing with him

Forgetting what he told me by the water fountain

-Hey, I heard about the murder, weren’t you going to that showing? Are you okay?-

-Yes, I’m fine Y/N, it was pretty gruesome, but those assholes deserved it anyway.-

-What do you mean?-

-Nothing, sorry that’s probably too much, respect for the dead and all.-

You get to the fountain first today, which isn’t surprising considering the last few days he’s been showing up late, if at all. About halfway through the reading the two of you were going to do together, you feel a tap on your shoulder and look up to see Junpei staring back at you. “Hey, there’s the legendary Junpei Yoshino, it’s been so long, glad you could grace me with your presence” a dramatic bow where you’re seated, before moving your bags to clear a space for him.

He chuckles a little at your teasing “I know I know, it’s been a crazy couple of days.”

“Yeah, you’re sure that you’re okay? I know the stuff you’re into, but seeing…something like that could really mess with anyone’s head.” A slight smile spreads across his face, before he sets out his own copy, flipping to the section you’re reading “Nah, I’m really doing okay, I even met someone who can help me deal with it all.” This takes you back a little, Junpei doesn’t reach out for help often, but if he’s getting help with all he’s been through you’re more than happy for him.

The two of you spend the rest of the session joking about the awful text you’re supposed to be analyzing, before heading back to your classes. He doesn’t show up at the fountain for a few days after that, and from there he starts missing school altogether.

And he knows that she shouldn't listen

And that he should be with me by the water fountain

-Hey, Junpei! I know you’ve been busy lately, but can we meet at the fountain today? I gotta talk to you about something.-

-Sure, I’ll be there-

True to his word, you see Junpei at the fountain during the free period, but he’s not in his school uniform, meaning he skipped again. You’re not surprised at this point, he’s missed more days than he’s attended in the last two weeks, but what does worry you is the bags under his eyes. They’re even more pronounced than they usually are, and he seems quiet, but in a different way, “You doing okay? You seem off, and you keep skipping school,”

He cuts you off, “Yes, I’m fine. Just really busy lately. But what did you need to talk about?” He’s more on edge than you thought from texting him. “Just wanted to tell you that the school trip is coming up next week, but since you’ve missed so many days I don’t think you’ll be able to go.” “I couldn’t make it anyway. Why?” you sigh softly “Yeah, I, figured, just wanted to say that I’m going. I’ve always wanted to see the area, so,” His eyebrows furrow as he looks you over, before quickly scanning the school grounds, “So you’ll be gone? How long will you be?” “Two weeks.” “Fine. That’s all you wanted right? Let me know that you’re leaving?”

No, it wasn’t all you wanted, you wanted to catch up, you wanted to check on him, you wanted to tell him- no, you’re not going there now. “Yeah. That’s it” For as abrupt as he shut you down, you could see his eyes starting to water, so you gently pull him in for a hug “I really won’t be long Jun, and I can text you the whole time, yeah?” He stays quiet for a minute, until his breath steadies a bit, “Yeah, sorry, I just, miss getting to spend more time with you. When things were normal.” Your questions can wait, you don’t want to leave on a sour note, and if his erratic behavior continues, pushing for answers might not go well. “I do too Junpei, but once I get back we can get back to normal, okay?” You let go at this, and start to pack up, he nods and starts to walk off, as you suspected, away from the school, while you head to class.

He couldn't be at home in the night time because

It made him feel alone, but at that time he was too young

I was too young

I should've built a home with a fountain for us

The moment that he told me that he was in love too young

I was too young

You’re on the last few days of your trip, and while he seems to have been too busy to text for the most part, you two have been texting about your days. Well, most of it was just you talking about yours, he doesn’t tell you much of what he’s been doing, but that’s not uncommon anymore.

-I met someone new today. He’s really nice, funny too. He pantsed Sotomura when I was going to get in trouble for attendance, and we both ran.-

You chuckle at this, getting eyebrows from your roomates, before you reply:

-He sounds hilarious Jun, that’s awesome that you met someone though! I’ll have to meet him when I come back!-

He’s finally meeting more people, you guess being gone for two weeks can have that effect on someone. You’re happy for him, if not a little jealous, since Ms. Yoshino’s cooking is delicious and you haven’t been over to Junpei’s house in forever.

And if he ever goes back to the water fountain

The handle will be broken and the rust set in

But my hand, it will be open and I'll try to fix it

My heart, it will be open and I'll try to give it

Now I'm grabbing his hips, and pulling him in

Kissing her lips, and whispering in her ear

You walk up to the fountain, and Junpei is standing there waiting for you, he takes your hand as you sit, and you two talk about your trip, what he’s done while you were gone, cracking jokes, and listening to his laugh. But before you know it, his arm wraps around you, softly pulling you towards him, and you lean into it. Your lips brush his, they’re so soft, and his arms are so warm. You pull him into you, holding each other in a warm embrace as you softly kiss.

Suddenly he pulls back, and looks at you with a worried expression, “I’m sorry”, and your eyes flutter open.

You realize you aren’t back at school, you’re just in a hotel room, and you still haven’t seen Junpei in weeks. Your heart is racing as you push your face into the pillow, blushing deeply thinking about your dream. His lips, his touch, it almost felt real. This isn’t the first time you’ve dreamed about your best friend this way, and it’s not like that’s the only time you think about becoming more. You open your phone to check the time, 4:28am, and you see the stupid selfie you took, your silly face and his smile behind his hands. You put your phone down and sigh, you don’t know how much longer you can keep pining like this, “I’m going to tell him when I get back.”

And I know that it's only a wish

And that we're not standing by the water fountain

He couldn't be at home in the night time because

It made him feel alone but at that time he was too young

I was too young

-I’m sorry, but I have to do this-

-What for, Jun? You okay?-

-read-

-I’ll be home tomorrow, we can talk then, right?-

-delivered-

That message freaks you out, he’s been so on edge lately, so you try to call him. No response. You call again, leaving a quick message about how you’re getting worried, before trying to call his mom. Also no response. That’s when you call him again. As worried as you are, you can’t do much from here. If he’s not picking up, all you can do is wait until you get back to talk to him in person.

You get back into town on monday, so even though you know it’s not likely, you hope to see him back at school on tuesday. At least if he swings by the fountain to let you know he’s alright. But even as you first step in the door, something feels off. Ito even mumbles some sort of apology as you stop by Sotomura’s office to ask if Junpei has been to class. He hasn’t, and Sotomura gives some excuse of him having dropped out or something after some event. He doesn’t want to elaborate.

I should've built a home with a fountain for us

The moment that he told me that he was in love too young

-I just wanted to say that I love you, I have for a long time Junpei, and I really want to see you again.-

“No, I can’t say that. It’s too much pressure,” you think, trying to decide what to send to your childhood friend after that worrying message.

-I want to see you again, maybe we could go to coffee?-

Nah, that’s too casual, it’s been a month you can’t just, spring it on him like that.

-I hope you’re okay Junpei, I miss you. If you’re ever back around the school, we could meet by the fountain like we used to!-

That will work, you just have to send it. A deep breath before you hit the button, and you slip your phone back into your bag before going back to class.

-Message delivered-

Pairing(s): Kunikida Doppo x Reader

Prompt: Tucking a lock of hair behind their lover’s ear (Action Prompt #3)

Genre(s)/Tag(s): Gender Neutral!Reader

Notes: Thanks for the congrats! I always love seeing you on my page!

This is for my 1K followers event! It’s going on between June 8th and June 22nd!

__________________________________________________________________________

Doppo was stressed. It wasn’t that hard to pinpoint the tenseness in his shoulders and the way he pressed too hard with his pen to the point of it snapping.

He had gone through three pens already.

You open your eyes blearily, glancing over to the clock on the wall and squinting at the numbers.

2:15 AM

The sound of a pen scratching on paper gets your attention and you look over to see the desk lamp on and Doppo writing away. He’s still in pajamas, hair cascading down his back. With a frown, you slide out from under the futon covers and crawl until you’re at his side.

He jumps as you wrap your arms around his waist and set your chin on his shoulder.

“How long have you been working?” You whisper, and he doesn’t look up from where he’s filling out reports.

“A few hours.” He replies, and your frow deepens,

“Doppo, it’s two in the morning.” You say. He doesn’t stop until you put a hand on his.

The pen stills.

Finally.

“Love, I need to get these done.” He says gently, and you hum, slowly turning him to face you. He looks haggard. Exhausted. There are bags under his eyes, and he seems like he hasn’t slept in days.

How long has he been staying up late doing these reports?

“What you need is rest.” You say as you tuck a lock of hair behind his ear and then cup his cheek. He leans into the touch and closes his eyes. It looks like a weight has been lifted from his shoulders.

“I’m fine. Really.” He tries, and you huff out a quiet laugh,

“You clearly aren’t. Look at your handwriting.” You say, and he turns to look at the aforementioned handwriting.

It’s abysmal. You can barely read what is typically neat and tidy kanji. It’s almost funny if you weren’t so worried about your partner.

Doppo stares at it.

Rubs his eyes under his glasses.

And stares again.

He finally lets out a laugh and sets down the writing utensil. Then he rubs his face, almost knocking his spectacles off his nose before relenting to your soft touch. You gently pull him to his feet and bring him back to bed. His side of the futon is immaculate, made neatly as it had when you went to be hours earlier.

Your lover gets under the covers, as do you, and you snuggle up to his side when he sticks an arm out. You toss an arm over his waist and nose the underside of his jaw.

“Get some rest, Doppo. I’ll help you with the reports in the morning.” You say, and as you settle into bed, he turns his head and drops a kiss on your crown—a rare sign of affection from the bespectacled man.

He really must be tired.

“Thank you, love.” He whispers and is asleep the moment he closes his eyes. You smile and pull the blanket up to your chin,

“It’s not a problem at all.” You whisper into the silence.

"You're my monster. And I love your dearly." My heart 🥹 I adore how you write Nishiki, I can't even. And I'm so weak for spontaneous proposals 😭😭😭 This is so good, so sweet.

Dude!!!! Congratulations on 1K, you totally deserve it!!!! 😁 For the event, could I get Nishiki with dialogue prompt 10 if it's open?

LOVING OUR MONSTERS

Reblogs and Comments are greatly appreciated!!

Fandom(s): Tokyo Ghoul

Pairing(s): Nishio Nishiki x Gender Neutral!Human!Reader

Prompt: “We humans could not help loving our monsters.” (Dialogue Prompt #10)

Notes: You basically take the place of Kimi in this

I need to reread Tokyo Ghoul… Also, ppl pls, keep sending in requests for these guys. I’ll write for pretty much anyone (except for Quinx Squad cuz I don’t know them very well yet).

This is for my 1K followers event! It’s going on between June 8th and June 22nd!

__________________________________________________________________________

Nishiki wasn’t sure why you put up with him.

He was brash and rude.

He drove people away.

He got you hurt on multiple occasions.

He couldn’t keep you safe, and that idea alone killed him.

But for some reason, you put up with him. Loved him even. And that idea alone gave him something to live for.

After Kimi had broken up with him—because why wouldn’t she? Tsukiyama had nearly killed her—he had decided never to open up his heart again.

Until you.

He sat up in bed, his side of the blanket kicked down low, watching you sleep as the moonlight lit up your shared bedroom in a frosty white glow. You breathed deeply, barely moving as he trickled his fingers up and down your bare back. Your side of the blanket was slung low on your hips, exposing your unblemished skin for the world to see. He fidgeted with his sweatpants, needing something to touch and ground him.

When he stops moving his hand is when you begin to stir. Your eyelashes, long and pretty, flutter against your cheeks, and you blink up at him through a sleepy haze.

“Nishiki? What are you doing up?” You mumble sleepily, and he shrugs,

“Couldn’t sleep.” He says and watches you sit up, tugging the blanket up around your shoulders as you lean into his side. Unconsciously, he wraps an arm around your shoulders and pulls you close.

“What’s on your mind?” You ask when he doesn’t elaborate. He hums,

“You, I suppose.” He says, and you cock your head to the side as you take in his features.

“Only good things, I hope.” You tease, and his somber expression cracks with the upward quirk of his lips. You always have a way of making him smile.

“Only ever good things.” He says, and your brilliant grin seemingly lightens up the room.

You throw the blanket around his shoulders and pull him close, an arm around his waist, and the other hand plays with his fingers. He can feel your heartbeat against his side and hides a shiver at the feeling.

It reminds him that you’re still alive.

That you’re still here with him.

“But seriously, Nishiki, what’s wrong?” You ask suddenly, and he shakes his head,

“Don’t worry about it, love.” He says, and you raise an eyebrow, cocking your head to the side as if to say, “Really?”

He relents.

“Why do you put up with me?” He whispers, voice cracking, and your expression immediately softens into one of pure unadulterated love.

“Because I love you.” He turns to face you, letting the blanket fall from his lap as he crosses one leg under the other.

“But why do you love me? I’m a ghoul. You’re a human. We don’t mix. You shouldn’t associate with monsters like me.” He says bitterly, casting his eyes down and feeling his glasses start to slip from his nose.

He jumps when your hands cup his face, tilting it up to look at your smiling face. It’s a soft sort of smile, the one that’s reserved especially for him. He feels his disgusting heart flutter with hope. You gently push his glasses back up his nose and lean in to kiss between his brows, smoothing the furrowed skin.

“We humans could not help loving our monsters. And you may be a monster. But you’re my monster. And I love you dearly. Now and forever more.” You whisper against his forehead, pressing delicate kisses down his nose until you meet his lips.

He gives a shaky inhale but doesn’t pull away. Instead, he reaches forward to curl a hand around the back of your neck and draw you closer. You let out a surprised noise against his mouth when he all but hauls you into his lap and buries his face against your shoulder.

“You sound like you’re reciting wedding vows.” He mumbles and feels you laugh more than he actually hears it.

“I wouldn’t be opposed, y’know? I think I’d like that a lot.” You say, petting his head, running your fingers through his hair, and scratching his scalp.

He loves the feeling.

“You know that ghoul and human marriages are against the law. You could be killed for that.” He says, and you hum. He feels the vibration through your chest. You smell like flesh and blood and sinew and muscle. Something that other ghouls would kill for. Kill to rip you to shreds and devour you until nothing was left.

But he did no such thing.

Instead, he loved you. To the best of his abilities, at least.

He loved you gently because he was a ghoul; his strength could snap you in two.

But in contrast, you loved him fiercely. You loved him unconditionally and without fear.

“Well, screw the law then. Let’s move somewhere where they are legal.” You say, adjusting how you sat in his lap until you straddled him, legs on either side of his hips, and settled back into his embrace. His arms were tight around your middle, keeping you close as if Tsukiyama or someone else would steal you from him.

At your words, he lets out a surprised laugh,

“Pretty sure they’re illegal everywhere.” He replies and smiles at your snort even though you can’t see it. He nips gently at your shoulder and feels you shudder,

“Then we just won’t tell anyone.” You say determinedly, and he relents.

“Alright, fine.” He says, and you pull back to look at him in shock, eyes wide, and he sees you tearing up.

“You mean it? We can get married?” You whisper, and he offers what he hopes is a reassuring smile.

“I don’t have a ring or anything like that. But if you’ll have me—” You tackle him to the ground, making his head bump against the wall. Your arms are tight around his neck, but it’s not uncomfortable.

“I’d been hoping you’d say that.” You murmur, and he cups the back of your head with one hand, the other holding you by the waist. When he speaks next, he pours his entire heart into his words.

“You really think I’d marry anyone else?”

I can't even, this is adorable, I love it so much

Hello! How are you?

Idk if you take requests, but if yes, could you do an oneshot of Uta (or the others if you want) hearing y/n singing for the first time?

VOICE OF AN ANGEL

Reblogs and Comments are greatly appreciated!!

__________________________________________________________________________

Fandom(s): Tokyo Ghoul

Pairing(s): Uta x Gender Neutral!Ghoul!Reader

Genre(s)/Tag(s): Fluff, Singing,

Notes: Someone pls, send me requests for other TG characters… I’ll write for anyone from the OG Tokyo Ghoul series (not :re yet. Well… except for Haise)

Trigger Warning for mentions of cooking and consuming human parts!

__________________________________________________________________________

When Uta first heard the singing, he was confused.

Who was singing?

And in his shop before it opened, no less?

He follows the sound to the upstairs kitchenette, where he finds you.

You’re singing softly, swaying from side to side as you sauteed some human flesh and munched on an eyeball as you cooked. The smell was divine. And paired with your lovely singing? He had died and gone to heaven.

Uta leans on the doorframe, arms crossed, and tilts his head to the side as he listens to the quiet melody. It’s in English, so he only understands bits and pieces but puts together enough to understand it’s a love song.

You were always a sucker for those.

You sing through the entire song, spinning on your heel to grab some spices—it might upset your stomachs later, but it made food taste good—and notice him.

And promptly shriek.

You drop the spices in your hands, and they clatter to the floor but, luckily, don’t spill.

“How long have you been standing there?!” You demand, embarrassed. He can practically see the steam erupting from your ears.

“Long enough. What are you doing here? I thought you were coming by later.” He asks as he steps closer, slinging his arms around your waist and pulling you in for a kiss. You return the love eagerly, cradling his jawline in one hand.

You tasted delicious. Like the creaminess of the eyes you had been snacking on and the taste of the flesh you had snuck while cooking. It wasn’t often Uta could be this flippant with his emotions and affection, but he made a special exception for you.

“I decided to come by and surprise you with some food. I wasn’t expecting you to come by early.” You reply, and he hums, dipping down for another kiss.

You laugh and pull away,

“I don’t want the food to burn!” You exclaim, and he shrugs,

“Let it burn. That just means I get to see you for longer.” He says, and you swat his chest. He doesn’t flinch but lets go and allows you to return to the stove.

The food is finished quickly, and Uta sets the table for breakfast. You had insisted on getting a Western-styled table with actual chairs. Mainly because you worried about his joints while sitting at a Kotatsu table despite him reassuring you he was perfectly fine.

As always, the food is mouth-wateringly good, cooked to perfection, and seasoned well enough to make Tsukiyama Shuu jealous.

While you wash the dishes, Uta dries them and puts them away. It’s quiet until he speaks,

“Sing for me?” He asks, and you pause where you are washing the chopsticks in soapy water. You set them aside and adjust the rubber gloves you are using to protect your hands.

“Alright, Phantom of the Opera. Why do you want me to sing? I’m not very good.” You say, and he leans his chin on your shoulder. He notices you can’t help but smile.

“I think your voice is wonderful. I’d love to hear it again.” He says, and you huff out a quiet laugh.

“Alright, alright, but only for you.” You say and begin to sing again.
