hello i loved the sabotaged flying and catching s/o post you did! if you don’t mind could you do a part 2? same situation except with characters ruggie, leech twins, jack, and a character of your choice plz? you don’t have to do it! but if you do it’ll be much appreciated:) have a nice day!

Previous request: (for context) During flying class someone jinxes their crush’s broom and sends them free-falling but just before they hit the ground the boys rescue them. To show their gratitude, their crush gives them an innocent peck on the cheek afterwards (oblivious to their feelings) before leaving

Heroes, Villains, and the soft spot in between pt. 2

Floyd Leech

At first, Floyd is envious. Your flying looks like so much fun with all of the spontaneous ups and downs and spirals, maybe he’ll do the same when it’s his turn

Yeah, you’re screaming but maybe it’s from exhilaration? Like when you’re on a rollercoaster and filled with excitement

He realizes your screams are due to terror when you start free falling at a speed that can’t be safe while you wildly thrash in the air

Floyd scrambles to catch you in his arms, magic softens the blow, but the two of you are sent tumbling from the impact. You end up as a pile of entangled limbs with him below you to absorb most of the fall.

Floyd is a maelstrom of emotions. He’s upset that you lost control, he’s mad that he almost let you fall, and he’s certain, given the state of your broom, that something was amiss with it. Before he can act on his whirlwind of emotions, they’re all quelled by a soft stroke on his cheek.

“Are you alright?” you asked, eyes roaming his figure for injuries and tone filled with worry. Aside from the dirt on your uniform, you appear otherwise unharmed and that calms him more than Floyd will ever admit.

“No-oh!~ It hurts! Maybe if you give me a k-i-ss it’ll feel better?” he teases. Uncertainty and hints of disbelief swirl in your eyes as you bite your lip lightly. Before he can assure he’s just kidding, a heart-wrenchingly gentle kiss lands on his cheek.

“Feel better now?” you ask tentatively, “Did you cast some spell that needs kisses as a catalyst to heal wounds?” Floyd smirks at your naivety.

Jade Leech

Jade is reassuring you while you wait for your brooms. It’s your first time flying and you have jitters but it’s a compulsory component and Ashton Vargas is hardly the empathetic mushy type

Jade sees your broom is rather stiff and offers to switch with you, but you’re scampering to the start line before he can closely inspect your broom

You have an uneasy start, unsteady and quivering, but soon you’re high up in the skies with your classmates 

Then your broom sputters and in the blink of an eye, you’re plunging towards the hard ground

Jade acts quickly, casting a spell with an enchanted item, which slows your descent and has you landing on a magic bubble rather than solid rock. The bubble pops as you descend on it and you land on your feet and into Jade’s arms. Your fingers dig into his jacket in an attempt to stop yourself from crumbling on the spot.   

“Why don’t we head back to the café?” Jade suggests, his voice smooth and steady as it lulls you back to reality. If you looked a little closer, you’d notice how Jade grit his teeth, but at the moment you simply clung onto him for strength. You don’t trust your voice yet so you nod in response. In the distance, you hear chatter and screams, apparently, you weren’t the only one to fall prey to this horrid scheme. But with each step away from the chaos, a little bit of normality returns to your life.

“Take a seat here, I’ll get you something warm to drink,” Jade insists while pulling out a chair for you. You fiddle with the utensils as you try to distract yourself from that horrid first attempt at flying. The thought of ever going into the skies again is enough for your stomach to start performing acrobatics. 

“Enjoy.” Before your thoughts can spiral, your favourite warm beverage is in your hands. Jade sits beside you with a cup of his own, but he waits for your reaction.

“Thanks,” you murmur and bring the steaming drink to your lips. As the hot liquid runs down your throat and fills your body, you finally feel at peace. The corners of your lips turn upwards slightly. The warmth in your hands spreads to your heart. Impulsively, you turn towards Jade and share this precious warmth with a kiss to his cheek. An unexpected blush blooms on his face, but it only serves to make your smile bigger.

Jack Howl

He doesn’t really like you, okay? He’s not paying extra attention in class to you. You don’t catch his eyes or grab his attention.

He won’t unnecessarily associate with people, no matter how often his gaze wanders to you.

Then he hears your shriek and he acts on adrenaline. 

You’re falling and he couldn’t care less what anyone said about him. He could hardly be worried about looking vulnerable with your impending death

He breaks your fall, and both of you roll on the ground from the sheer force of the fall

His muscular arms wrap around your body as he takes most of the blow from the fall. Your head is spinning and you’re too unsteady and bruised to do much else but remain in his hold. He starts yelling but the ringing in your ears makes it hard to identify what he’s saying. 

“… so weak! … so stupid! What were you doing?” His mouth unleashes something in between a barrage of insults and a lecture but his trembling arms and contorted expression tell an entirely different story. He’s worried about you, maybe even scared for your safety.  Eventually, silence fills the space between the two of you but his arms still cage your body.

“Sorry for worrying you,” you said softly. You stare up into eyes with trepidation, and before your brain can overthink it, you clumsily kiss his cheek. The shock loosens his hold on you but his surprised visage is enough to send a deep blush to your cheeks. You quickly blurt out some sort of thanks and then run off before Jack has a chance to properly comprehend the situation.

Ruggie Bucchi

Ruggie notices some classmates snickering a bit too much, and he recognizes the malicious glint in their eyes even if they do try to conceal it

He’s not too concerned until he sees one of them point specifically at you

He’s a little surprised, Savanaclaw kids certainly have their flaws but at least most had the guts to openly confront each other. They couldn’t be bothered with subterfuge and sabotage, they just fought each other 

Ruggie wastes no time confronting the group, intimidation and confrontation a familiar tactic for him. He didn’t become the vice dorm leader of Savanaclaw Snaps through gentleness, and he extracts the information he wants

Unfortunately, the idiots don’t even have an inkling about how to undo the jinx. He snaps their wands in half from rage alone

Before he can teach them a lesson, your screech pierces Ruggie’s ears. Worry instantly fills his mind, Ruggie is used to breaking up fights, not saving people

Ruggie doesn’t have the same inherent fountain of magic Leona does, but it’s enough to cast a shaky spell that prevents you from splattering. It doesn’t stop the tree branches from smacking your body or the rocks from cutting your flesh during the fall though. Ruggie is by your side in an instant, cradling you carefully.

While all your limbs are intact, scratches and bruises litter your skin. White-hot fury flows through his blood. He engraves the faces of the perpetrators into his mind, planning to teach them a permanent lesson. Your groan brought his attention back to the situation at hand, and he barely suppresses his anger in favour of carrying you to the infirmary. 

With a gentleness that surprises even him, he holds your body like a precious doll or perhaps like a knight saving his liege. He anxiously paces outside your infirmary bed as your wounds are being cleaned and dressed.  Eventually, the two of you are left alone after being advised that you’d need rest and were excused from physical classes for a while.

“Ruggie?” you croak. His swinging tail stills at your voice.

“Yeah?” He trudges towards you. You beckon him with his hand, and he can’t help but follow, sitting beside your bed. Bandaged and weak, he has trouble finding the willpower to deny you.

“Come closer,” you murmur. He bites his lip but obeys anyway. Slowly, as to not agitate your injuries, you lift yourself up with a tired grin. Your lips graze Ruggie’s cheek, it’s hard to muster up enough strength for much more, but it’s enough to perk up his ears and his tail lets you know he definitely felt it.

“Thanks for saving me,” you whisper before closing your eyes and finally resting, feeling safe with Ruggie beside you.

Cater Diamond

Cater heard rumours of some students planning on hexing some brooms, but he didn’t think it’d happen, least of all to you. There were plenty of vengeful and colourful characters at the school but many were all bark and no bite

“HELP!” Hearing your plea for aid was all it took for Cater to kick it into high gear

Cater immediately grabs a broom and starts flying to catch you. 

The broom wavers a bit from the impact of you falling into his arms, but aside from messy hair, the physical damage is minimal

Cater teases you, saying how you’re lucky to have a friend like him to save you with a grin. He holds you a bit too tight which betrays his cheerful facade

“Safe to say that class is over today, yeah?” His voice is light but there’s a tightness in his throat that Cater struggles to bury. His arms haven’t left your waist, even as the two of you descend on solid ground.

“Thanks for saving me.” Your words are sincere but your voice can’t help but waver after the traumatic experience.

“I’d say we deserve a treat,” Cater declares. Your eyes widen, but since he just saved your life, you decide to trust whatever plan he’s come up with. A small fragile smile forms on your face as you nod. Cater keeps a hand on your shoulder as he guides you.

Each step is easier than the last and eventually, your legs have enough strength to support you. Even then, Cater keeps a hand on your body and its presence is reassuring, so neither of you comment on it. 

“Here we are!” Cater announces before opening the door to the cutest patisserie you’ve ever seen. Pastel pink and green are accented by white giving the shop both a spring vibe and elegant theme. Shelves are lined with macarons, cookies, petit fours, cakes, and sweets to tempt just about anyone.

One glazed cake catches your eyes with bright colours and a flavour combination that sounds too good to pass up. Cater catches your gaze and orders it before you even need to ask. The dessert tastes even better than it looks. The contrasting textures and complementary flavours make for a great bite of food.

You finally feel happy after that disaster and the person responsible for that is right beside you with an easy smile. An idea sparks in your mind and it must show in your expression because Cater lifts an eyebrow up in a silent question.  You press a firm kiss on his cheek on top of his Diamond.

“Not as sweet as these desserts, but I hope you accept it as thanks for today,” you explain. Cater feels his heart swell, grateful for the affection. He’s now determined to show the culprits behind your life-threatening fall how heartless he can be.

Twisted Wonderland Oneshots: Fireworks

Jade Leech x Yuu One Shot

Title: Fireworks

( A short fic I wrote out of random whim. Apologies if its too short)

-----

For someone who spent most of his life in water and never have danced, his legs were the most graceful in dancing. He swayed Yuu before remembering he had a surprise for her.

Leading her out of the crowd, Jade never let go of her hand in anticipation of the surprise.

"I hope the view is to your liking"

You've only heard of the glimmers of the sea creatures when in water from Rook but it was the first time you've seen it when Jade dipped himself into water.

"I promise I'll hold you and never let you sink. Fufu even though that would be an amusing sight but I promise I'll keep you mostly on the water's surface. "

You pursed your lips at his insertion of a joke and kept your hands clasped to your chest.

"I promise I'll never let you drown" The softness of his voice calms you like a siren spell and you felt his hands take yours. "I really do. "

Ever the gentleman he was, he guided you to the water with his hands still not letting go of yours. Your breath hitched upon feeling the water's level reaching your chest and higher. Immediately, Jade wrapped his arm around your waist while in his merform before your body could go deeper.

"The face you make is alluringly adorable when scared around water but rest assured I'll hold you always. "

It was not just your face but the way your arms clambered on him for safety that he found adorable.

"I already followed you to the water, are you happy already seeing me scared. ",

"While that is adorable, it was not my intention to scare you. I apologize for that. I hope the view tonight would suffice. "

"J-Just don't let me go. I can't swim. " her voice shook with every word.

Yuu may have her eyes closed but she felt Jade move in the water, hearing the gentle waves until she felt her feet could no longer touch any ground or sand. It was terrifying now she was away from land and all she could do was trust him.

They were already somewhere deep but Jade kept his promise. His arms remained to hold her.

" I know this sight is not anything new to you humans but when Floyd and I were kids we loved to swim to the surface just to enjoy things on land. Just to see… This"

Yuu did not know who those voices belonged to but in the distance she could hear a crowd count down 'Four… Three .. Two… One.'

The human eye is fascinating in its ability to still sense light even closed, just as Yuu felt when she heard a familiar crackling sound in the sky that made her slowly look up.

Wide-eyed, she no longer hid her face on the merman's shoulder upon the sight of blooming fireworks.

The way their sparks spread on the expanse of the night sky.

Any protestations in her heart silenced as both Jade and Yuu's faces were illuminated by the fireworks.

There were cheers from the distance but Yuu's ears were only filled by the crackling of fireworks as if everything else was muted and she leaned her temples on Jade's shoulder.

".... Thank you.. " was all Yuu could utter. She has seen fireworks but never like this.

"No… Its me who should be saying thank you. "

"Wait why? I'm the one who complained and was ungrateful that I survived another year. I said being alive for another year was a mistake. That I should have just drowned in this very same waters"

"Thats why I said I'm thankful. Thankful that you are still alive and still with me here. " Jade responded softly.

They were so distracted by the fireworks, Yuu didn't notice her arms were still looped around Jade's neck as they stayed afloat there watching the show in the sky. All her initial fears of the water vanished.

Upon finally noticing their closeness, Yuu quietly asked. "Can you put me back on the boat?" and he obeyed.

He helped her move towards the boat and hefted her up so she would be above water. Yuu found her nerves relax being in the grasp of safety once more. She was wrapped snugly in a towel that hugged her small shivering body.

"Thank you… Again.. " she told him softly.

"Of...Course.. It is my honor." Jade still was in the water as he rested his arms against the boat's side looking at Yuu with the same fondness he would have with his terrariums like he is looking at land for the first time. Golden were Yuu's eyes as light of the fireworks reflected in them. He could not look away from the fireworks before when he and Floyd would swim to the surface to see them.

But now he could no longer look away from the face of the human in front of him. She knew nothing of his world yet she wasn't afraid of him.

As the world on the surface was entrancing to him, the human entranced him more. It gave him this subconscious urge. The kind that made his gaze move from her eyes to her lips. How plush and pink they were.

'I could not grasp this feeling but why am I…' despite being a merman, it was so human, he could not stop his own head from leaning forward, feeling his face slowly move towards her, eyes closing.When Yuu saw his movement, it was like his siren like lips beckoned her to lean towards him and close her eyes just as he did.

The fireworks bursting in the sky was muffled as the only thing they could hear were their heartbeats. Their faces almost coming closer and closer.

As their lips were about to meet, Yuu's leaning on the side of the boat made them hear a sudden creak. Their eyes widened at the sound while Yuu felt her vision suddenly lopsided as the boat quickly tipped over, tossing her overboard and producing a huge splash.

Her gaping mouth gasped wide for air as she tried to keep her head above the water's surface.

"You've made quite a splash again like how you did in the opening ceremony on the first day. " Jade commented with a chuckle before swimming towards her.

"Of course you laughed the first time you saw me and you'd laugh first before helping me. " Her pout was still visible even if her wet bangs covered her face.

It just made Jade chuckle more as he helped swept away hair on her face with her fingers. "Though its funny seeing you flop helplessly. I apologize, its discourteous of me to laugh. But… That was the first time I've ever noticed you. You've certainly piqued my interest during that ceremony."

'Was he suddenly being honest just now?'

Yuu's face was the same color as a tomato when Jade climbed back on the boat. The man resumed back to his human form,his moray eel-esque tail splitting to legs in a huge sparkle of light. He heard her squeak.

"Anything wrong?"

Yuu averted her gaze as he nonchalantly dressed himself on the boat, slipping his recently transformed legs into his trousers. His calmness felt too teasing for her when he caught she was looking earlier.

When he caught why she was flustered, he smirked. "It seems I am still quite oblivious to conventions of human behavior fufufu I forgot I have parts of me that aren't very proper for a woman to see. Would you like me to tip over the boat again so we could have a redo?"

As much as he derives amusement from many things, her reactions are always circus for him to watch.

But all the lady could give was an indignant glare at his signature close-eyed smile. "Don't you dare tip the boat, j-j-ust go dry yourself and put on some clothes!" She kept her eyes closed shut.Though even when closed, her ears could catch on the ruffling of fabric as she blushed and wished she can exorcise any impure thoughts out of her cranium.

'... Stupid boat, ruining my first kiss'.

She huffed to herself.

To calm and appease her, he obeyed and put on more layers so as to not make her uncomfortable. “Of course I was kidding, I would never expose you to such things if you are not ready. “ Once he was done buttoning his dress shirt, he asked her to turn around. “You can look now”

“I believe I should be escorting you back now and get you a set of dry clothes.” Jade offered, draping his coat on her shoulders, realizing that her clothes were still damp from earlier so they returned back to land.

Twisted Wonderland Imagines/Scenarios

Octavinelle edition

SCENARIO: Your friends Ace, Deuce and Jack realize you've gotten closer with the Octavinelle boys after the summer vacation at Scarabia. Even though they've hastened to you and Grim's rescue after receiving an SOS when you were imprisoned in Scarabia, by the time they've arrived the issue was solved. And to their surprise, why are you suddenly buddies with Floyd and Jade?!

( Dialogue inspired by the Scarabia Arc ending. )

ACE: Hey this is trouble for us,Deuce, we're gonna lose our bud to those Leech twins. Bet they got something shady planned for her. 

Deuce: A-are we doomed if she falls for one of them? 

Ace: Of course we're all doomed! Ever since those twins have been attached to her like leeches, we always see them disappearing. They're always whisking her off somewhere. Probably taking her to their fish mafia hideout. 

Pretty sure they have ulterior motives or something, like sacrificing her in a some magic deal ritual thing with Azul. 

Deuce: That does sound bad...Do you think they want to devour her soul or something? 

Ace: Something like that! This romantic and close atmosphere must be all a trap those fancy boys laid out to lure prefect. 

Deuce: We need to deck them before they do anything 

Jack:  Guys,we can't jump into conclusions, we need to observe more,come on, they might hear us. 

Deuce: I agree with Jack.  If we hit them, we should have evidence first at least. We already know what happened to us when we went straight to the Mostro Lounge. We were beaten too fast last time. We shouldn't be impulsive like before.

Ace: But that doesn't those guys scare you, I am still traumatized from making a deal with Azul and having to work my arse in the Mostro Lounge. 

Jack: It wasn't my fault you two were gullible to make shady deals. 

And after all, those three did say they have redeemed themselves. We still aren't sure if they've truly changed but even I have to admit, I find them fawning over and following around Prefect like that just weird. 

Deuce: Very very weird. Its hard to get near Prefect with those two around, like they are bodyguarding her. Lets trust Jack's plan and observe them. 

Ace: Just when have you become the observant type heheh, earlier you said lets deck them first. 

Deuce:  Oh shut up Ace. Even I know how dangerous those twins are.

Jack: No time to be arguing.  If they do anything to hurt Prefect, thats the time we'll be decking. 

Deuce: Good enough for me.

Ace: Now that's what I'm interested in.

( This is my first attempt at a Twisted Wonderland oneshot, please be kind. I am very attached to the Octavinelle boys and out of them I just want to protect Azul so much UwU. He is such a bb. He is such a vocal character who weaponizes words so much so its interesting if he is a mess when flustered )

The Silver Tongued Azul

Azul Ashengrotto x Reader

Azul is quite aware his reputation is known around campus. But his feelings towards you had not been made known.

He would speak to you with full courteousness as if you were a client or customer to the Mostro Lounge.

When he would do something nicer to you than he would to any regular customer, he'd brush up on you being a valued patron. Everything should be according to plan. You should have no suspicions of his feelings. He gave his invitations to the Mostro Lounge under the guise of free drinks and food for being a good Prefect to the Octavinelle students.

For every slip of his tongue when said anything sweet, he'd have Floyd and Jade backing him to talk.

Until one day, he decided to give you an offer you could never refuse.

He will order Jade and Floyd to go retrieve you. Of course to you it looked more like kidnapping but let us not fuss too much details.

As extra Azul is with himself and his standards, he ascertained that he will be a little bit more extra with you tonight.

The finest silverwares and the best dishes Floyd could cook.

Mostro Lounge was already an underwater grotto of opulence but tonight was far different.

Floyd and Jade promised the housewarden their support but not their best behavior, not making any promises they won't tease.

—-

Azul sat across you and asked you if the decorations were to your liking and some chatter.

From a distance behind you, he'd secretly have Jade and Floyd have cue cards to aid him with the script he so painstakingly wrote weeks beforehand. He made countermeasures to never miss a word.

"It is a pleasure that you could accompany me in this beautiful evening. I, Azul Ashengrotto, have something to proclaim to you as a frequent visitor of our Mostro Lounge today. "

Every inflection of his speech was perfect. His attention towards you never left. And he made a move to change where he sat, moving confidently to sit next you.

" I, Azul Ashegrotto, would like to say that I… "

Subtly eyeing Jade's cue card, it read out those final three words 'I love you' but it proved much different for Azul to say it.

".... I… I…"

In the middle of his perfectly woven speech, his mind stopped at the sight of your eyes on him. In front of you, he was confused and in awe of your beauty at the same time.

But now his insecurities are flaring up and resurfacing once more. It was that utter fear of being rejected once more.

'What if I become that fat crybaby octopus again and she leaves me…? '

What if all these planning just falls to nothing" his nails dug on the cushion of the leather sofa.

The Azul, who was ever so eloquent and always silver tongued to persuade anyone into anything, is now wordless and internally hyperventilating in your presence.

He was always one who wants to impress you with the grandiosity of his preparation but he is becoming his awkward self once more.

"Didn't he memorize everything he is going to say, he's totally blowing it and turning into baby Azul." Floyd felt tears burning his eyes from stifling his laughter while Jade did the same but tried to cover his mouth primly with a gloved hand,yet losing it too.

Even Jade was interrupted by his attempt of hiding his laugh "Floyd, it is– (laugh) " "impolite of us to laugh at Azul's– (laugh) – blunder. "

You, a magicless and mortal human, have rendered Azul tongue-tied. His face was an interesting red hue, profusely blushing. If he could just crawl into an octopus pot right now he would. Actually thats what he thought. 'SOMEBODY HELP ME! I WANT TO CRAW INSIDE AN OCTOPUS POT RIGHT NOW AND CRY'

He did think everything through but never accounted his sudden flustered feelings with you this close.

Lucky he had drank his potion and in human form right now but if he was in octopus form, he would be spewing ink already. He could imagine it in his head.

"Yuu… I.. I.. I.. " each word was said in

jitters.

Normally it would be him referring to others as a poor unfortunate thing but right now, its what you would call him as you mentally facepalmed.

It ended with you speaking first to help him. The most merciful thing you could do to ease his mental torture.

"I… Already knew what you felt about me, Azul. " Your hand felt on top of his to stop his shaking.

'But how could you know… ? I took every measure for you not to know only up to this day'.

One touch sufficed to return him to the surface when he thought he was sinking back to the sea.

"You did?" His baby blue eyes blinked in confusion.

"Hm-mm. " You nodded in affirmation. You gave him the simplest answer with no explanation needed. "I always knew"

"But what do you feel about me?

Do you… Like me..?"

Slightly breathy was his voice as if one about to cry when he gave your hand a squeeze . Your answer being the thing he would hold on whether he'd have to feel rejected again just like his entire childhood.

You did not admit, you were nervous as he was but your answer was what he needed right now.

It gave you strength to reply with the softest voice to make the scared inner Azul come out of the octopus pot.

"I do. I really like you… For such a long time now"

Your words even caught the attention of the twins who watched, who stopped laughing. Honestly they had already mentally planned a pity party in the scenario Azul does get rejected. But they trusted Azul.

If anything, they trusted you more with Azul.

The jitterniess inside Azul disappeared and made the silver haired man clear his throat. "How embarrassing of you to see that but allow me to ask you, properly. Can I start from the beginning?"

You chortled. "Of course. "

—

Though impeccable he is with his words most of the time, to you, he is suddenly a bumbling mess who needs more time before he would return to his eloquent self.

But now, there it was.

Words were flowing out of his mouth like calm waters.

You two spoke for hours and felt relieved as Azul is himself again. You still had to admit, you loved his nervous awkward self too.

—

Repoising himself, Azul began again. There was a little quiver in his voice yet he recovered it immediately

"I, Azul Ashengrotto, would like to ask you

a proposition" In his effort to impress you, It was funny he spoke like it was one of his deals with a student. "I cordially invite you to the Mostro Lounge anytime. And more than just a guest but…

Dramatically he took in a breath.

Bringing your hand closer to his lips, he bowed his head and looked over at you from his lashes. "Would you give me the honor of being your date again the next time you visit?"

"I would love that" quietly you were in gratitude the dim lighting hid how pink your face were.

" If ever you need help in anything.

You know where to find me. I am more than willing to help you get your dreams. "

"Is this another one of your shady deals?" You raise your brow at him jokingly, remembering this was the case with the Anemone incident.

"I promise it won't be. "

Azul teased back, his gloved hand moving over to stroke your cheek. When he realized his action, he faked a cough and withdrew his hand.

With a snap of his finger, he summoned his vice housewarden who appeared as if he wasn't just laughing earlier. "You made quite an entertainment earlier but I'd say you did quite a performance in the end. " He spoke in lower volume to whisper.

"Awww I surely thought you'll turn into baby Azul again. " Floyd suddenly appeared behind Jade.

You were not in any way startled by the twins and just chuckled.

"Oh shut up. " Covering his mouth with a fist, Azul coughed to redirect their attention

"Jade, Floyd, can you please make a record to have Yuu exempted from the point card system. If she ever enters the Mostro Lounge, redirect her to my office and notify me. "

"Yes, sir" Floyd and Jade both had sly smiles.

Azul from the corner of his eye, sighed and shooed them away. "Can you two please allow me some privacy 'this time'?"

He gritted his teeth a bit and verbally emphasized the last part.

"Oh we'll allow you some privacy alright~~"

"Just summon us if you both need our help and some 'protection' "

Azul thought he couldn't get any redder so he chided them away. You admitted it took you a while to get Jade's joke before it hit you and had you blushing as well.

The two scurried off from the dating area to no longer spy at him there. But probably from the security cameras.

" Those two are unsufferable. " An exasperated Azul massaged his temples.

"I think they are lovely for supporting you. " You said.

"Anyways, where were we?"

"A date. "
