notes - first post on this blog! thanks for reading!!!

────────────────

You had just returned home after a long, strenuous case that left the entirety of your team exhausted and more grateful than ever for the weekend ahead. While the day, fortunately, concluded with the victim found safe and the unsub taken into custody, you were injured in the process. A hit to your forehead, resulting in a relatively small gash. Which, although minor, had Spencer fretting over you as soon as he took notice of it. You managed to convince him to take you home, knowing the last place either of you wanted to end the night was in the hospital.  

Despite his agreement, he still took the drive home as an opportunity to share his collection of statistics regarding infections, concussions, and the like. He knew you were strong, that you could take care of yourself. Even so, he’d be lying through his teeth if he said his worry for your safety wasn’t always an unyielding buzz in his mind, a consistent white noise that had been playing since the moment he met you. Now, in your shared bathroom with the first aid kit splayed on the counter below, you carefully tend to the injury and hope not to worry him too much.

“You okay?” The question pulls your attention away from the mirror, eyes flitting over towards the source of the gentle voice. There stood Spencer in the doorway, a concerned yet knowing expression displayed on his soft features. Your eyes make it a point to avoid his gaze, well aware of the “I told you so” look waiting for you within it.

“Mhm,” You hum, shifting your focus back to pressing the alcohol pad over the wound, wincing in pain from the stinging sensation. “I’m alright.” Your attempts at convincing him are clearly not as effective as you hoped, given the worried furrow settled between his eyebrows as he takes a tentative step towards you.

“Can I?” He asks, stepping close enough to envelop you in the scent of his cologne, faint from the long day but still ever so comforting and familiar. “You don’t have to take care of it all by yourself.” His words have an added heaviness that follow along with them, a meaning running deeper than just him tending to your injury, and you’re eager to alter the mood as best as you can.

“Of course, go ahead.” Your hand ceases its movements and falls back to your side as you watch him pick up the pad and set the entirety of his focus on you. Spencer reaches to tilt your chin up, allowing himself a better view of the gash. You try to ignore the feeling his touch ignites in you as he holds your face and begins wiping at the cut, touch so delicate and light it would barely register to you if you weren’t aware of what was happening.

That is, until he applied more pressure and the burning feeling returned at once, pulling a hiss of pain from you at the suddenness of the sensation.

“I know,” He all but cooed, brushing the stray hair out of your face. “I’m almost done.” His assurances were whispered in such a soft tone making you practically melt in his hold, the intimacy of the situation bordering on overwhelming. Opening up and accepting comfort is never easy, but it’s almost second nature with Spencer. It feels as though he defines a new level of gentleness as he loves you, irrevocably and fully, and he grants you the gift of being able to do the same to him.

He gives you a once-over after he’s finished, admiring both his work and the way you look under the glow of the warm bathroom lighting. He leans in to press a featherlight kiss over the bandage, the cheesy display of affection causing you to tuck your head into his shoulder in an attempt to hide the soppy smile making its way onto your face.

“You wanna head to bed?” He speaks quietly, so as not to disturb the peaceful silence that had enveloped the two of you. He lets out a soft chuckle as a yawn answers for you before you give a proper reply.

♟Mafia Boyfriend Geto Suguru comforting you during your period♟

!!Cw: Slight Mafia mention, Both reader and Suguru are consenting adults, no kidnapping involved, reader voluntarily went to Suguru, abusive family.

NOTE: You are still living at your old house with your family.

Kindly please support me by liking and reblogging my posts. It helps a lot. <3

You woke up this morning feeling something wet dripping in your underwear. You quickly went to the bathroom and took a warm shower, pour hot water in your hot bag and flop back to bed as you were in excruciating pain due to your cramps. You curled yourself into a ball, and fell asleep.

You woke up again in the afternoon and exchanged texts with your boyfriend. He apologised that he wasn't available this morning as he went on a mission. You shrugged it away and told him it was alright as you could manage your period.

18 00

You got out of your room, passing by the living room to go to the bathroom to do your business when you heard your bitchy aunt mentioning your name.

"You see Y/n could have done the job. After all, she just laid on her bed all day doing nothing.",

upon hearing this from your aunt, knowing she brought this up because she knew you were passing down and could hear her, your anger got the best of you. Your hormones were kicking you as well. You were in excruciating pain since this morning.. you were tossing around in your bed, hell you could barely make it to the bathroom without fainting.

"Well if you checked up on me, you would see why I was laying on my bed whole day. I was in pain."

You were going to rant on more to her but you decided to cut your conversation short as she would only give you a migraine with her bitchy attitude.

You went to the bathroom, did your business and then went to your room and started overthinking about your recent interaction with your aunt.

Just then, like an angel, your boyfriend, Suguru, called you.

Suguru: Hello Princess. How are you doing ? Is it paining too much?

You: Hi baby. Uhm it's- it's okay.

<Suguru could sense you weren't doing good. In fact he knew about your household issues>

Suguru: Baby. Dont lie to me. Tell me what's going on? Is it that aunt of yours again?

<you couldn't bear it any longer, as your hormones were really kicking in, your cramps came back as you started rambling about everything to him, how you were basically suffering since you woke up, the comments your aunt made about you despite you ignored her and how you feel so sad right now>

Suguru: That bitch!

Suguru: Baby. Do me a favour. You know that convenience store in your locality ?

You: Yeah. What about it?

Suguru: Come.

<Suguru actually just wanted to see you. But given the incidents, he decided you'll be spending a few days at his place. He happened to be in your hometown as he had his mission in a nearby town and he had to pass by to get home.>

You: What? Baby you are here?

Suguru: Yes sweetheart. Thought I'd just come to see your pretty face but given the recent incidents, I'm taking you with me babe. Ain't no way I'm letting my girl spend her vulnerable days in such a shitty house with a bitchy family. I'll be waiting for you Princess.

With that, you both cut the call as you took a small bag, put your necessary underwears, pad, a few other essentials. You didn't bother to bring clothes except a few comfortable nightwears as you already had a few t-shirts at Suguru's, more like his t-shirts which he gave you.

You quickly made your way to the convenience store as you spot a familiar man with a halfbun, long hair draping over his back leaning over a familiar range rover.

You couldn't bear it anymore as you launch yourself in his arms. Fortunately, Suguru parked a bit further away in the dark where people wouldn't really spot you both.

You held him tight as you buried your face in his chest as you cried your heart out and ramble everything to him, while he just hug you tight, pressing kisses on your forehead and whispering "it's okay" "I'm here now" "I'll take care of you" to you softly.

He waited for you calm down by yourself as you pulled away from him sniffing with glossy eyes, his arms still tight on your waist. He looked at you for a few seconds before pressing a lingering kiss on your forehead.

"You feeling better baby?"

You just nodded as he took your small bag, took a peak inside and put it in his car.

"Do you need anything more princess? Are you having a particular cravings?"

You simply whispered no.

"Hmm okay. Let's get in the car then baby.", he said as he opened the door to the passenger seat. You climbed inside as he quickly went to the driver seat. He reached a bag from the backseat as he gave it to you.

You looked inside as you saw your usual period cravings and the tampon/pad you used in the correct size. You simply smiled as you looked at him, noticing that he was already looking at you.

You leaned to hug him again which he gladly obliged as he pressed a kiss on your forehead, another one your nose and finally one your lips before you both pulled away and Suguru fastened your seat belt before fastening his and he took off.

While Suguru was driving, you texted your mom that you went to stay with Suguru. Your mom knew your relationship with Suguru and was supportive about it given how much hardships you go through with your other family members and she knew how much you deserved to be with Suguru.

You put you phone in the cup holder as you finished texting your mom and sighed as you looked outside the window.

Suguru reached a hand on your thigh giving it a squeeze as you looked at him.

"Thank you so much Suguru. I don't know what I'd do without you."

"Baby it's okay. Afterall what kind of man would I be if I let my girlfriend suffer in such a shitty environment? You don't deserve this babe. You deserve so so much better. "

The rest of the ride was silent with the music playing in the background as you looked outside and Suguru focused on the road.

Suguru knew that as much as you crave contact, you needed mental space sometimes so he did provide it to you. But he also let you know that he's there by constantly keeping his hand on your thigh.

20 15

You both reached Suguru's penthouse in the City as he parked his car and get you out of the car.

He quickly gave you your bag and the other bag containing the things he brought for you before scooping you in his arms and carrying you upstairs claiming that he doesn't want to let you climb the stairs because he's the man.

He let you down as soon as you both reached the kitchen as he told you to make yourself home.

"Baby did you eat yet?"

"Uh not really. But I'm kind of craving potato Wedges and I was hoping if I could bake some?"

"Oh- how about you go have a shower and I bake you some?"

You insisted that he went shower first given that he was working all day but he simply urged you to go first and that's how you found yourself having a hot steamy shower while he was preparing your potatoes.

You came back to the kitchen in a pair of shorts and Suguru's old t-shirt. Suguru quickly saw you as you ran into his arms once again. He kissed your cheek as he told you he's going to take a shower and if you could just bring out the baked potato Wedges once it was ready.

You sat on the counter of the kitchen watching tiktoks before the oven clicked and you took out the potato Wedges.

That's when you noticed the smoothie in the blender. You assumed that it was protein smoothie for Suguru which he was preparing as the smoothie was still cold.

You poured the smoothie in a beer glass and you brought the blender to the sink.

As you were washing it, you felt someone behind you and before you could tell anything, you felt a hot water bag pressed to your tummy.

"What's my princess doing?" he whispered in your ear.

"Was just washing the blender."

"Oh- my protein shake is ready.", Suguru said as he took at the glass of protein shake on the counter and drank it.

You looked at him as he was drinking the protein shake as he raised an eyebrow at you.

"You want some?"

"Yeah. I was actually craving some milk."

Suguru smirked at you as he got out a shot glass and poured some for you as he handed it to you and continued drinking his own.

You looked at the shot glass and then drank it up. It was thick.

"That's not milk."

"It is. I just mixed oats and protein powder with it."

Suguru said as he finished drinking his protein shake and put it in the sink.

You put yours too and was going to wash it as Suguru stopped you and started washing it himself.

"Take the Wedges and go sit on the sofa baby. Pick a movie."

You complied to him as you went to the sofa and picked a random movie as he came to you not so long after. You both shared the Wedges as you watched the movie, occasionally laughing and giggling and throwing comments about the film.

As soon as you finished eating, Suguru paused the movie and took you to the bathroom where he passed you a new toothbrush and toothpaste as you both carried on with your night routine.

You both then returned to the living room to continue your movie. You snuggled to him as you loved his body warmth, it was better than your water bottle. You cling onto him like a koala as he circled his arm around you and started massaging the knots in your belly, providing you comfort. Your eyes started feeling heavy listening to his heartbeats as your head was on his chest as well.

22 15

It didn't take long for you to fall asleep as Suguru switched off the TV and picked you up and went to his bedroom. He removed his shirt as he wanted to provide you much body warmth as he could, checked if your water bottle was still warm enough and then slid behind you and spooned you.

You sighed in content in your sleep due to the surrounding warmth as Suguru turned off the lamps and pressed a kiss on your nape and drifted to sleep himself.

Ω PJO DEMIGOD HEADCANONS: ♟EREBUS: PERSONIFICATION OF DARKNESS 🌑

Author’s note: *put head into hands* Alright, so I may or may not have went off from the usual formula (Do I even have a formula for writing these at this point?) and I think I may have made the primordial demigods here more cryptid cause they’re the literal by-product of primordial beings that are also half-mortal? I won’t be including the usual blurbs at the ending cause all of them are probably pushing the word limit Tumblr has but worry not, I made up for it by putting more storylines into the whole thing. PRIMORDIAL DEMIGODS MASTERLIST: [LINK]

You’re a child of darkness. Quite literally. You were born in darkness and rose out of darkness; figuratively and literally. You were wrapped in the clothes made from darkness, a comfort to you as you were brought into a world with a cycle of light and darkness. You were born almost alongside Nyx’s own demigod, Erebus following Nyx’s example; however while Nyx’s demigod was born from curiosity, Erebus sired a demigod that while he was born alongside Nyx, her own child must have to be with them as well.  

You grew up relatively well and peacefully in the darkness, hidden under Erebus’ cloak of darkness. He showed you his domain of darkness, and the darkest region of the underworld where you saw and learned from the ghosts of the dead. 

One night, you were guided to meet the child of Nyx who is your other half, with Erebus telling you that much like him and Nyx were a pair, the two of you were a pair as well. 

You and the child of Nyx stuck together, with you either leading them somewhere or them following you, or you following them as they went from one place to another. This was true when the child of Nyx was ordered by her mother to join forces with the demigod child of Gaea and Tartarus. You knew the Nyx demigod yearned more for Nyx’s affection so they would follow Nyx’s order, regardless of their own violation and feelings. You decided to follow the Nyx demigod, hoping to protect her from whatever may happen; you only can hope that they would remember they could always hide in the safety of your darkness. 

As you can imagine, you can wield the darkness. It can range from simple shadow traveling to manipulation of it. However, your special trait is that whenever there is darkness, you can wield it; within objects to mould like clay, absorbing it, or even manipulating and peering the darkness within others. You can travel through the darkness but careful walking through it; unlike the shadows who have a tether to the world, the darkness is an entirely different domain. It is unexplorable, hides many things, and can cling to you in ways you will not be able to know.

As a part of Erebus and wearing the cloak of darkness cut from Erebus himself, you can relatively travel through the darkness in most domains (the exception of its opposite like light itself), but be careful in bringing others along with you for they may be lost into the darkness or be affected in the ways. 

You tell this power to the child of Tartarus whose power is similar to you, warning them when you both bring those who don’t belong in the same realms as you do (the other being the child of Nyx). When you warn them of the consequences, you are confused when you see the look of uncertainty and fear on their face, before they ask what happens if someone borrows your cloak of darkness. You mention that it would protect them to a degree but it would be little good if they’ve been already affected by it and continue to pursue it. 

Another ability you may have falls under Erebus’ other domain; the darkest part of the underworld. Many souls end up casted into the darkness for their crimes or end up lost in it. In a sense, you can summon the dead but those especially within those that reside in your godly father’s domain. 

A key feature about you, much like the child of Tartarus, the blacks of your eyes seemingly go forever with how dark it is. However, what different is that light doesn’t seem to touch you in a way like others. When the light touches your hair, it doesn’t shine or change like others do; your shadows seemingly dark than others. Fortunately, people don’t usually notice your shadows too much to see something is odd; and you can play off your hair being dyed which also doesn’t shine or filter light like natural hair does.

♟: Patching up a wound for Meresino? 🥺

This prompt made me smile, because my very first Mersino fic technically fits this bill to a tee (just with, uh, more sexual activity). So, it was most delightful to have an opportunity to return to my Meresino roots! --- Scratching the Surface

Sometimes, Orsino can almost convince himself that Meredith’s hatred of mages is an elaborate façade, nothing more than a convenient excuse to gain power. But then, there are times like these.

He watches on in bemusement as Meredith stitches her wound shut, the only sign of the pain she must be surely suffering evident in the furrow of her brow, lines of her face even deeper than usual.

“You know I could help with that,” Orsino teases, gesturing theatrically at the knight-commander’s arm with his spare hand. It’s not that he even wants to lend her his assistance, not really. There’s a small part of him that revels in her pain, and not to mention an even larger part that believes she deserves it. It’s just that he could. But she won’t let him. He’s expecting the knight-commander to ignore him completely. It’s one of her favourite past-times, second only to shouting (predominantly at him, but often at others as well). Instead, Meredith surprises him. “You are helping, mage,” she answers flatly. But most importantly, not angrily. His hands instinctively clench: one forms a fist and the other, tenses against Meredith’s bare wrist, where he’d been helping hold down her arm as she’d tended her wound and had been dutifully attempting to notice as little as possible.

He tries not to think about how warm her skin feels against fingertips.

Rolls her words around in his mind instead. Mage, she’d uttered, like it was punctuation.

Like it was a curse. And therein lies the rub, doesn’t it? Even though with just a mere wriggle of his fingers, he could take her pain away, leaving her skin blemish-free as though it had never been so much as scratched before, she would never let him. Because she did truly believe him, and everyone like him, to be cursed, as though he would sooner transform into an abomination and devour the entire world than be of any use to her, or indeed, anyone at all. Magic exists to serve man, or so the Chantry claimed, but the knight-commander seemed to find even his divine purpose intolerable or lacking. “If this is all the help I can provide,” he complains, pressing his fingers down harder against Meredith’s wrist as though tempted to see just how much he can get away with, “I might as well be a doorstop.” Meredith scoffs. “Don’t be ridiculous, Orsino.”

For a moment, there is nothing but silence. Deafening silence. He can feel Meredith’s heartbeat under her skin. But any futile hopes that Orsino might have held that the knight-commander might have finally forgone her infamous obstinance are instantly dashed when she hastily snaps, “A doorstop that can follow instructions.” The words rush out of his mouth before he can stop himself and think. “I could enchant one for you.” With a hiss, Meredith pulls her arm away.

All at once, Orsino’s fingers are freezing. Freezing and empty. Why, he wants to ask. Not why don’t you want an enchanted doorstop, but rather, why are you so scared of us? Why are you so scared of me?

“Goodbye, First Enchanter,” the knight-commander says. It’s one of the frostiest dismissals Orsino endured in weeks. His question dies on the tip of his tongue as he meets her gaze and realises that he doesn’t want to learn the answer. [non-sexual intimacy prompts]

One of my goals for the vampire fic was to work in a reference to every time chess is mentioned in the Holmes canon ♟

————————————

Yui's Monologue:

-– In exchange for giving myself up peacefully, I am hoping that Kou-kun and the others will be allowed to escape.

With that condition, they took me to the Orange mansion.

I thought they were going to imprison me in the dungeon like the Scarlets did, but Ruki-kun instead sent me to his own room.

This must be the first time I've talked to Ruki-kun alone since he lost his memories.

While feeling the weight of my pwn nerves, I waited for Ruki-kun's words -- .

————————————

PLACE: Orange Mansion - Ruki's Room

Ruki: ... ... At last, we can quietly talk.

Yui: ... ... ... ...

Ruki: Don't be so cautious. I don't plan to eat you. I just want to ask you something.

Yui: You want to ask me something ... ... ?

Ruki: Yes. About the method to become the overlord.

It is said that Eve holds the key to becoming the overlord. Now, get talking. What is it I must do?

Yui: (Even though you ask me, I have no idea what to do.)

(Rather, I'm the one who wants to know what being the overlord is ... ...)

Ruki: What's wrong? Can't you talk?

Yui: No, it's not that ... ... It's just that I don't know either.

I have been thinking about what the overlord is ever since I woke up in the church. But, I really have no idea ... ...

Ruki: You have no idea? That is not possible.

*He comes close to her*

Yui: Kyaah!

Ruki: There is no one who knows that information except for you.

Yui: Except me ... ... ? How can you say that?

Ruki: It's obvious. Because neither the Scarlets nor the Violets know anything about it.

Yui: Eh -–.

(Why ... ... is he mentioning all of them ... ... ?)

(Now that I think about it, when we escaped from the Scarlet mansion together with Yuma-kun --)

(Since then, there has been no sign that Carla-san, Reiji-san or the others were after chasing us.)

(Has Ruki-kun already ... ... ?)

Ruki-kun, what happened to the others!? You couldn't have ... ...

Ruki: There is nothing they can do anything.

Yui: ... ... !

Ruki: Hmph, what a desperate expression. Don't be mistaken. Instead of killing them, I just chained them in the dungeon.

Yui: Eh ... ... ?

Ruki: I was planning to keep them in chains until they confessed, but so far no one has said anything relevant.

In this case, it's normal to think that Eve has that information and that she hasn't shared it with anyone yet.

Yui: (That means everyone is safe, right? Thank goodness ... ...)

(... ... No, I can't rest easy yet. That doesn't change the fact that they're captured.)

Ruki: I doesn't matter how trivial it is. Tell me everything you know.

Yui: ... ... ... ...

(Now that everyone else has really been captured, the only ones who can stop Ruki-kun are Kou-kun and the others.)

(Kou-kun and the others promised to come save me. I'm certain that they will come.)

(But ... ... I don't know when that will be.)

Ruki: Do you plan to stay quiet?

Yui: It's not that, but ... ...

Ruki: Then speak.

Yui: (Ruki-kun is obsessed with the idea that I have the key to this all, what should I do -–)

Selection:

————————————

-> Ask something back ♙♡

Yui: (It's not good that I keep insisting that I don't even know how and keeping quiet. In that case ... ...)

Then Ruki-kun, why did you let Kou-kun and the others escape at that time?

Ruki: Do you intend to change the topic? Do you think I'll fall for it?

Yui: It's not that. It's because it really seemed strange to me.

————————————

-> Deceive him ♟

Yui: (Even though I'm lying, I have no choice but to deceive him! )

T-to become the overlord ... ... you have to wait until the next full moon.

Ruki: I see ... ... And then?

Yui: A-, and then, you uh ... ...

*He grips her arm tightly*

Ow -– !?

(He's grabbing my arm ... ... I-it hurts ... ...)

Ruki: Your eyes are darting around. If you're going to lie, then do it better.

If you're going to take on a rebellious attitude, then I will have to discipline you with pain.

Yui: Y-you can't do that ... ... I'm sure you really couldn't do that, Ruki-kun.

(That's right, because -- )

Yui: After all, then why was it that you let Kou-kun and the others escape at that time?

————————————

Ruki: Do not make me repeat myself. It's because I judged that they wouldn't be a threat.

Yui: That's weird. It's not like you at all.

Ruki: What ... ... ?

Yui: Even if they don't pose a threat now, there is a chance that they could become one.

If there is even a slight source of concern, then it must be crushed immediately. That's how you're supposed to be.

But this time, you didn't do that.

I guess you couldn't do it because you didn't want to hurt Kou-kun and the others, right?

Ruki: ... ... Silence.

Yui: (That reaction just now ... ... I knew it!)

Even if you can feel it just a little bit, then remember it! They are your precious brothers!

It's as Kou-kun said. You were the smartest out of everyone.

It's not an easy task to get rid of the memories and knowledge you've acquired so far.

However ... ... There are more important things than those false temporary memories, are there not!?

Of Kou-kun, of Yuma-kun, of Azusa-kun ... ... and of Ruki-kun.

You were all very close. So please, remember them!!

Ruki: ... ... I told you to shut up.

Yui: ... ... !

Ruki: That somehow, they are important to me? I won't talk about this anymo- ... ... Kgh ... ...

*He backs off*

Yui: Ruki-kun ... ... ?

Ruki: ... ... It's nothing.

Yui: (This feeling ... ... it's similar to when the others recovered their memories. He has dizziness and a headache ... ...)

(No way. Has Ruki-kun been enduring this up until now so we wouldn't find out!?)

(His memories have always been on the verge of returning! Is that why he let Kou-kun and the others escape while only capturing me , and hasn't thrown me in the dungeon ... ... ?)

Ruki: ... ... Ugh ... ...

Yui: (If there is some sort of trigger, I might be able to make him remember everything at once.)

(I already talked about Kou-kun and the others. Other than that, what else could cause a reaction in Ruki-kun ... ...)

(I'm so close, and yet I can't come up with anything ... ... !)

Ruki: Enough already.

*He grabs her shoulder and comes closer*

Yui: Kyaah!

Ruki: If I can't get information based on questions and answers, then I'll have to use brute force.

Yui: (He brought his face clos to my shoulder ... ... Is he planning on sucking my blood ... ... !?)

Ruki: If I train you with my fangs, then surely that mouth of yours will start talking.

Yui: No --

*She flails*

Ruki: Don't resist. It'll only get my fangs to sink into you even more.

... ... -– *He goes to bite her*

Yui: (Kou-kun -– )

*Glass breaks*

(Eh -– ? Just now, what was that sound ... ... ?)

Ruki: ... ... So they came. That was faster than I thought.

*Kou appears*

Kou: Ruki-kun! Get away from Yui ... ... !

Yui: Ah -- .

(Kou-kun ... ... He came!)

Kou-ku --

*Ruki grabs her*

Kyaa!

Ruki: I won't let you go.

Kou: Ngh ... ... -–

Ruki: I knew you would come. However, the one to gets Eve and becomes the overlord is me.

Kou: I don't care about that.

Ruki: What ... ... ?

Kou: I have no interest in being the overlord. If you want to, then feel free to do it.

But ... ... If you're going to hurt her, then that's another story.

*Kou walks towards them*

Ruki: ... ...

Kou: ... ... Back when I was little, Ruki-kun was the one that saved me. Even after we became brothers, you continued to be very supportive of me.

Though we sometimes quarreled, we never really fought.

That's why ... ... I didn't want to fight you.

Still, even if it's Ruki-kun, I'm not going to hand Yui over!

Ruki: Brothers ... ... Kgh ... ...

Yui: (Ruki-kun is dizzy again ... ... No, even more so now -–)

Ruki: Damn ... ... !

Yui: Kou-kun!

Kou: Hurry and come here!

*He takes Yui*

Kou: Are you alright?

Yui: Yes. Thanks to you coming ... ...

But, I didn't think you would come to rescue me so soon.

Kou: I imitated one of Ruki-kun's strategies. One would normally think that the enemy would act immediately, right?

Besides, I can't stand being away from you for even a second.

Yui: Kou-kun ... ...

*Loud clammering noise*

Is this noise ... ... ?

Kou: Azusa-kun and Yuma-kun are holding the others back. Now's our chance!

Yui: Y-yes!

Ruki: Wait ... ...

Yui: Ruki-kun ... ...

Ruki: I won't, let you escape ... ...

Kou: Then chase us.

*He grabs Yui*

Yui: Kyaa!

(He took me in his arms ... ... !)

Kou: We're escaping through the window. Hold on tight!

*They jump, time slightly passes*

Ruki: Kgh ... ... They escaped ... ...

*Shin runs into the room*

Shin: Nii-san! Azusa and Yuma are attacking us!

Ruki: And the other two are?

Shin: Ayato and Kanato are fighting them. More importantly, what about Eve ... ...

Ruki: She was taken away by Kou. Chase after them immediately.

Shin: Taken away ... ... ? Even though she was with you?

Ruki: It's fine, just go.

Shin: ... ... I- I understand.

*He leaves*

Ruki: ... ... I'm still unstable, but not so much that I can't move.

I'll finish this before they go too far.

PLACE: Mansion Front Yard

Kou: ... ... At the moment, they don't seem to be coming near us.

But Shin-kun has a good nose, so we can't let our guard down.

Yui: What about Yuma-kun and Azusa-kun? You said they were holding back the others.

Kou: They were supposed to run away when they noticed I came down. We were supposed to escape once we met up.

Yui: I see ... ...

Kou: You don't have to look so worried. You also know that we are quite tough, right?

Yuma-kun and Azusa-kun will surely catch up with us shortly.

Yui: Yeah ... ... You're right.

Kou-kun, thank you for coming to save me.

*She hugs him*

Kou: Wah! ... ... That's rare. To get a hug from you first.

*He hugs her back*

Yui: (He hugged me back ... ... When I'm in Kou-kun's arms, I feel so relieved -–)

Kou: What a relief, I was able to get you back. But this isn't the end. Ruki-kun will definitely come.

Yui: Yes ... ...

(That's right, I have to tell him about Ruki-kun!)

You see, Ruki-kun was dealing with extreme dizziness, just like everyone else.

If that's a sign that he is about to recover his memories, then maybe Ruki-kun too will ... ...

Kou: He might be getting his memories back?

Yui: Yes. But, we're one step away from it.

Kou: One step away ... ...

Yui: (If we can get Ruki-kun back, we won't have to continue with this conflict.)

(Maybe we would all be able to find a way out of this isolated land.)

(We are one step away. If only we knew what the last requirement is --)

*Shin's shout echoes in the distance*

Shin: Nii-san, this way!

Kou: ... ... It's Shin-kun! Damn it, have they caught up with us already!?

I want to wait for Yuma-kun and Azusa-kun but ... ... if we stay here they'll definitely catch us.

*He picks Yui up*

I'm going to run! Hold on tight so you don't fall!

Yui: Yes ... ... !

*They run off*

🎭

Hange is an extremely focused, dedicated and loyal person to her job. It’s pretty rare you’d get some one on one time - but she always makes sure she does indeed get that special quality time with you, now and again.

That’s not to say she won’t squeeze in little visits here and there; because she will. Just… don’t expect her to stay too long, most of the time.

Hidden under her distracted and “crazy” persona, is a caring and very thoughtful individual. Expect her to think of you when she sees something she’d know you’ll like. She’ll probably buy it for you too, for next time she sees you.

It’s the little things like that and the effort she puts in to make you feel loved and wanted, that makes up for the lack of her presence.

Ideal dates:

When Hange does have some spare time, her most favourite thing to do with you is either snuggle up in bed with a book, just reading in a peaceful, comfortable silence OR she’s quite partial to a nice long walk to clear her head, relax and just talk to you about whatever flies through that fast-flowing mind of hers.

She’s pretty fond of the theatre, she likes critiquing the structure of the script and stage directions. …And she loves the ice-cream there. Not to mention she’s a thrill seeker. Rock climbing, roller coasters and skydiving all get her to her happy place.

She’s not huge on PDA, but she doesn’t mind if you initiate it. Hold her hand or peck her on the cheek as much as you’d like. Just dont expect full on make out sessions in the movies. She has a reputation and a sense of professionalism to keep. She’s a soldier. And a damn good one, too.

Modern AU

Modern AU probably wont surprise you that she’s probably working in a lab of sorts. Medical or testing, even teaching. Whatever it may be - anything that arouses the mind, that’s what she’ll be doing.

I could also see her working as a CSI, cleaning up and figuring out crime scenes. She’s good at it too.

Hange loves all gadgets and widgets. Always has the latest phone/tablet/software and owns a drone too.

Likes to take her gopro out for adventures. Probably has a youtube channel (she doesn’t really show her face) and talks over her footage.

“So, here I am scaling that little doozy of a ledge. I was around 300 ft up by that point and - wait for it… Haa! There’s goes my foot! Almost got me there, nature huh?” *laughing*

NSFW

Hange is a dom/sub switch. She’s also pan. She owns strap ons, vibrators, cock rings… you name it she’s got it.

Very sexual. She’s pretty loud too. Her genitals are extremely sensitive and she can cum pretty easily and it won’t be long until she’s calling out your name again soon after.

Can be a pretty rough dom, if she’s horny enough.

Sex with her gets messy. She squirts and gushes.

Gets hysteric too. Pulls her own hair if you tease her too much, writhing on the bed.

Kinks

One of her Kinks is being as full as possible. So that’s toys in every hole. As well as you if you’re male bodied.

She has a love/hate relationship with teasing. God she’ll absolutely loathe you for it, but it’ll give her the best, earth shattering orgasm of her life when you finally allow her to.

One of her more dominant kinks is praising you while having you tied up, totally at your mercy while she has her way with you. She’ll be rough too.

Aftercare

Aftercare with the section commander is one of the best, without a doubt. She’ll hold you, cuddle you and kiss you. Especially if she’s on a hormonal come down from being a rough dom. She’ll kiss and nurse and markings she’s left.

As we know, Hange isn’t the cleanest of people. She doesn’t mind falling asleep in cum soaked sheets.

Will massage you if you had done a lot of work in that sex session. She’ll praise you too. You fucked her so good.

Dates 10/10

Thoughtfulness 9/10

Affection 7/10

Sex 10/10

Aftercare 8.5/10

Anyone would be lucky to have this queen as their so. She’s mind blowing in so many ways. ❤

Hi, I just want to say... holy shit

Like. I stared into space for a bit after reading that bc that was one of if not the best smg4 fic I've ever read /gen

Anti meme energy?? The Godbox??? WHAT

HOW are you bringing those into this /positive

also maybe im just incredibly aro but I did just instinctiually interpret the marware as platonic lmao-

I uh. I do have one tiny nitpick if thats okay. I won't say it if you don't want me to, and it didn't affect my overall experience reading that literal masterpiece, but yeah there's one thing I thought of near the beginning that 3 and 4 just. Didn't I guess-

- ♟

Sure, do tell! Thanks for asking first though

also not that surprised, I kinda have a thing going with 4 where I write him just a little more like- he processes things slower than 3, to me

though you might've thought about something even I didn't think about JKHDKLJHD

considering like. There's SO much in this and I'm still salty I didn't manage to put in certain things enough but also if I just kept trying to perfect it, it maybe wouldn't have even left my hands

also on the marware, I very much wrote it with both on mind

no like, incredible reason, I do just love both platonic and romantic marware JKKLDJDL

so you're totally valid

thanks for liking the fic otherwise though!

if you want, I could even list everything I was foreshadowing since you did mention liking it and there's QUITE a bit in this. I wonder how many are obvious

[fictionkinfessions]

Pom Pom knows Pom Pom has no canon gender and Pom Poms pronouns arent really ever mentioned ever so people are free to have their own headcanons about Pom Pom and Pom Pom can't change that and all.

But Pom Pom is not a girl. Pom Pom is NOT a girl!!! Pom Pom isn't quite a boy either but Pom Pom is okay with "he/him" used on Pom Pom. But Pom Pom will scream from the tops of the train cars (dont go out there tho its dangerous in space) that POM POM IS NOT A GIRL!!!

Look Pom Pom gets it. Pom Poms source is a waifu collection game, Hoyoverse is KNOWN for making Waifu Collection games. And Pom Poms fellow mascot (waves at Paimon!!!) is a girl! Pom Poms eng va is even very obviously a woman doing the classic "young boy" voice! Pom Pom sees why people would make the assumption!

But Pom Pom is not a girl! Pom Pom is the farthest thing from a girl! Pom Pom is on the other side of the GALAXY from girl!!!

Now Pom Pom knows Pom Pom cant stop people from thinking Pom Pom is a girl anyway. And Pom Pom knows Pom Poms own irl gender is influencing Pom Poms emotions. Pom Pom in this life is a trans man afterall. Pom Pom doesnt pass very well, even though Pom Pom dresses very masculine and DOES look masculine in Pom Poms opinion. Just. Pom Pom is very used to not looking anything like a girl but being called a girl anyway with little thought. Pom Pom is even very used to kinning girl characters as nb or trans masc. So Pom Pom is no stranger to seeing people use "she/her" on Pom Poms kins.

But.

Pom Pom doesnt know.

It hurts more with this one. :(

~Pom Pom 🕯♟ (Source is Honkai Star Rail)

P.S. Pom Pom is sorry if the third person makes things a bit hard to understand. Pom Pom didnt wanna drop it for this ask, hopefully some of you can understand when Pom Pom is talking about irl Pom Pom and character Pom Pom well enough.

[character-profiles]

Those openings won't be enough. I've searched through both the code and space, yet there's nothing I can get into the game through. I fear there may have to be a link of sorts between myself and where I'm going...

I talked to someone a while ago who was apparently "the living embodiment of the console", so they might be able to help get me through the code, though I mentioned it may be too dangerous and they seemed to agree.

[♟]

Hm.. so we'd need you to get into the code first.

So you're likely not integrated into our files. . .

You must be speaking of cmd-semicolon. They can definitely help you with our more technical stuff, and maybe I could convince him.

Otherwise, we'd probably have to take less straightforward options. . .

♟if you were a cartoon hero, what would your weapon be

fantasy cartoon: magic + bow and arrows + sword + knife (over powered? maybe. i call it prepared)

modern cartoon: gun

🧂what dvd/vhs did you watch over and over again as a kid?

the hobbit 💛

(slightly more obscure but i’m mentioning them in case other homeschooled people read this and had been thinking about these and were wondering what they were called: the last chance detectives movies and mcgee and me)

🛵 favourite tree

i think this means favourite type of tree and not favourite tree (individual) in the whole world as i first thought, but either way i hate to pick* but there were three elm trees i used to drive half an hour out of the way to visit so they’re a strong contender

(weeping willows were my favourite when i was 6. i’ve also said birch. and i am soft for white pines. one of my best friends is a maple tree. i had see mangroves as a must that i have experienced. apple trees and cherry trees are my loves. i love trees so much i refuse to pick one)

thank you! 🌸🌸🌸

♟for Alex

🗡for Rory

🥼for Josie

⚓️for Jamie

♟️ Is there a faction they are totally at odds with?

The constables lmao. For ACAB reasons of course, but also being a thief Alex tends to have... less than pleasant run ins with the constabulary. Not to mention how much they're controlled by the masters

🗡️ What is their profession? Are they satisfied with it?

Aurora is a licentiate and boy howdy does she enjoy it lmao. She is a serial killer. She is quite scary...

🥼 Does your OC have a favorite in-game clothing item?

Fittingly, the lab coat! Josie feels most comfortable in her lab freely doing whatever science she has set her mind to, so its no surprise she feels most comfortable in the piece of clothing connected to it. and lab safety is very important!!!!

⚓️ Which faction is your OC closest to?

The bohemians! Jamie is very artsy and pushes against the societal expectations of respectability, especially nowdays, so tends to fit in with the crowd there. If there's poetry and drinks, you can expect them to be at the social events.

Story 🌌🪐

July 14th / 2050 – Urano’s Spaceship, Dr. Friedrich Asimov:

The ”Operation Zarathustra” was an entire success. Indeed, it was worth it, due to the fact that – after testing for months – we were not only able to travel through time. Also, we managed to change the course of History, remaining the same until now, without showing any kind of metaphysical fluctuation. Hence, our society thrived, being able to access all the resources, in an effective way. Nevertheless, it took time and assets, as mentioned previously.

           First of all, we needed to figure out the formulas, checking out every single book related to Quantum Physics, sweeping certain zones in the Earth, using some pods, when suddenly…

            I’ll just end with my pain! I can’t deal with all of this! Let’s just give up! – said one peer of the scientific staff.

            LISTEN! I KNOW IT’S HARD TO BE DRIVEN AWAY IN A SATELLITE, WITH A GROUP OF SCIENTISTS THAT SHOW OFF A LOT OF SKILL, BUT STRUGGLING WITH THE FACT THAT WE’RE THE ONLY SURVIVORS IN THE VAST ABSURDITY OF EXISTENCE, BUT PLEASE… - I yelled when I – suddenly – was interrupted.

The good thing is that we’re able to find out the necessary variables, when we check that great church, full of books, art, and even encyclopedias.                 

Later, we gathered some raw materials, in order to develop the structure of the machine. At the end, we were able to set up everything!

So… which should be the name? – said someone.

Apostles? – suggested a scientist

Logos? – someone else suggested

And what about Zarathustra? It’s the name of a prophet, even mentioned by a German thinker – I suggested.

You mean Nietzsche? – a scientist said

Indeed, the Father of the Übermensch – I replied

They agreed at the end. So, we called the project… “Operation Zarathustra”

 The problem was that all the scientists had existential fears, regarding time traveling and modifying everything. So… I was the only one that traveled to the past! As a prophet, I told every government strategies about how to preserve Nature, without reducing production, like using water steam generated in factories to generate drinkable water, or photovoltaic energy rather than fossil fuels, etc.

         And it worked! Now I’m here, staring at my planet alive, again!

“How did it work?” - asked me a scientist in my team.

“DOESN’T MATTER HOW! LET’S AVOID THE MISTAKES FROM THE PAST, REUSE, REDUCE, RECYCLE!” - I answered him with tears.

How did I save water yesterday? 💧👀

Most of the people believe that our actions, regarding saving water, are per se meaningless. However, there was someone which said once that one small action could lead to great changes. And saving water is not the exception, let's just imagine all the citizens doing the same actions to protect water... That cooperation will generate - categorically speaking - a great effect. In my case, I cooperated yesterday, reducing the amount of time spent in the shower. Indeed, a shower per se consumes a lot of water. So... Please, let's begin our odyssey to protect water, with small actions that generate big consequences! 😎🌌🌍

How did I create the AI images? 👽🤖

In fact, it seems that's difficult to create the images. Nevertheless, basically you need to find an AI generator via Internet. Next, the UI will show you where you need to write down as input, the details that are going to be shown in the image. As a tip, please, be specific! In that way, you'll get a keen image. Furthermore, you have other extra options, they're optional - for me - though. And finally... Just click on "generate"! And you get your image! That's all! 🧐🤓
