A small req? Wheree we're a milf and our incel son eventually joins the military (you choose if he joins the military or meets at a bar I ain't gaf) and meets Ghost, 141 whatever. He brings Ghost home to his basement room(or the 141 bb do whatever you want) and ghost is surprised n shi that we this incel momma when we com with snacks or something like 'get outta here mom you're embarrassing me Infront of my new friends!" Is our sons reaction or sum. And ghostie pookie excuses himself up to the bathroom to sloppily makeout with us 🥺
nobody look at me i’m foaming at the mouth
c/w: simon is kinda strange but in a weird sexy way, mentions of misogyny, talks of sex must no actual smut, housewife kink kinda
it’s no secret that your son is a nasty little misogynistic shit. everyone on base has had the experience of standing next to him on a night as out when he gets a drink thrown in his face by whatever girl is he was chatting to
they’d been there every time he dogs out in front of everyone when you visit him on base. watching your eyes well up when your son tells you that he doesn’t like your new haircut or dress, that you’re too old to wear stuff like that
simon tried not to judge, appearances can be deceiving. perhaps you’re not all smiles and baked goods, maybe you’re an awful mother behind the scenes. he really tried. until he found out the real reason your son treats you like shit…
“she made my dad leave. he told me after they divorced that she wasn’t giving him what he needed, that’s why he had to go and get it somewhere else.” your son finally admitted one night after going through half case of beer
simon felt his hand tighten around his bottle as your son continued to ramble about how you were always busy with shit jobs. waitressing, cleaning or retail. he spent most of his childhood never getting all the latest toys and clothes because you could never afford it, too busy catching up on late bills to make sure there was a roof over both of your heads
“she’s so selfish.”
‘fuck being non-judgmental’ simon thinks. this kid doesn’t know how lucky he is. having a such a lovely mum like you, never losing your patience with your son even when he treats you like dirt. always trying to greet him with a hug or kiss just for him to push you away. begging him to call when he’s away just so you can know your boy is safe :(
“sounds like your mad at your mum for being the one that stuck around, lad.” price buts in, shaking his head with a small laugh.
you had been a topic of discussion the night after your first visit to the base. the product of a few glasses of bourbon shared between simon and john
“did you see the new recruits mother? fuckin’ hell, if I were 10 years younger I’d be all over that.” price admitted, adjusting his hips as he leaned back in his desk chair. simon let out a small grunt of agreement, having thought about this since he first laid eyes on you
simon had come to the conclusion that you both just needed a good man in your life. your son needed a father figure that would actually stick around, he could tell by the way your son looks up to him and the captain, eager to impress them
and you. oh, you. with your sweet, simple dresses and adoring smile. simon wishes you’d smile at him like that. all that cooking that your son lets go to waste could go to him instead. you could cook his favourite dinners for him and take care of his house whilst he’s away at work, whipping the boy into shape. teaching him every thing that your sack of shit ex-husband clearly didn’t
he’d be so good to you too. he knows it’s been a while since you’ve had a man to take care of your needs. he sees the way you nearly drool as you watch him running laps around the field, tatted arms on display. he’d spit you open so nicely on his cock and he knows you’d take him so well too, your pretty cunt would he creaming all over him
he soon takes advantage of this knowledge, subtly convincing your son to invite him over to your home on leave. dropping some story about how his flat is getting some work done and that he only lives 20 minutes from you both. your son was quick to offer the lieutenant a place to stay, telling him that he could take your room. that you could sleep on the couch for a couple weeks.
‘we’ll share the bed.’ simon thinks, but he doesn’t dare say it to your sons face. can’t have this little brat meddling with his plan
his arrival is clearly a surprise to you from the way you rush about shortly afterwards to start scrubbing the house top to bottom, rattling off apologies about the state of everything. simon quickly shuts down any offer of him taking your bedroom
“keep your bed, love. I’ll take the sofa.” he grumbles, sipping the tea that you made for him whilst your son rolls his eyes from the other side of the kitchen
he can see the way your eyes look at him with this longing. he knows it won’t take much to get you into bed. poor thing that hasn’t had anyone to look after her for years
he spends the next few days proving to you that he can provide. helping you carry anything heavy, drying the dishes after you’ve watched them, fixing the handy jobs around the house
you’re constantly praising him, focusing your love and attention towards him instead of your ungrateful son and the boy hates it. which is just the cherry on top, simon thinks
“your mother is so lucky to have a son like you. you must help her around the house all the time!” you coo, fidgeting with your skirt
“my mum passed away… jus’ me left out of the whole family.” simon admits, solemnly
“you poor thing, I’m so sorry. you’re welcome here anytime…” you gasp softly, placing your delicate hand on his arm and squeezing the muscle of his bicep gently and simon is ashamed to say it made his cock twitch against his thigh
“thank you, sweetheart… such a lovely girl, aren’t you?” he smiles behind his mask, reaching over and wrapping his arm around your waist. he pulls you against him, putting one hand over your mouth to keep you quiet as he hoists you up onto the kitchen counter
he squeezes his large frame inbetween your spread legs, leaning forward to look into your widened eyes
“been so good to me, love. taking care of me. such a good mum to your son, ya just need a good man to be a wife to, don’t you?” he says, pushing your skirt up your lap and revealing your thighs to him
he feels your thighs squeeze his waist, an aroused reaction from you. your body slumps into his with a natural submission that makes his cock ache. he lowers his hand and hooks his mask over his nose, revealing the scar running over his lip
“s’alright, darling. ‘m here to look after you now. me, you and the boy will be a nice happy family, yeah?” he says with a small smirk. leaning forward to mould his lips against yours before you can answer
he hears the little whimper you let out as you kiss him back, a little sloppy and inexperienced from years of being single, too busy with your son and work to date
but that’s okay because simon’s here now. ready to claim his family.

Hiii i love your work, for blurb night I was wondering if you could write something about babysitting someone’s kids with one of the drivers and someone in public mistakes you for parents bc they are unaware of you the driver is and you guys look like a cute family. It’s okay if not. Thank you in advance !!!!
Note: I have the biggest baby fever right now and I saw many cute videos that had Lando with kids, and I can't stop thinking about them, but since I have written a lot for him today, I'm doing Charles. For the plot of this, I gave him a niece, so let's pretend Charlotte and Lorenzo had a kid!
"Don't you look cute in that hat, Céline?", you cooed as you made sure it covered her head properly and that is wasn't too tight around her neck.
Charlotte and Lorenzo once joked about how the ideal Christmas present for them would be someone willing to look after their daughter for a few days as they took the time to have a little trip to enjoy just the two of them. You and Charles, however, weren't joking when you said you'd happily take Céline for the week while they recharged their batteries. Today, since it was sunny, you and Charles decided it would be nice to go to the park.
"Let's go, then!", Charles cheered, pulling the stroller closer to you so you could strap her in safely before you left your place.
"We are going to see the duckies - do you like duckies, Céline? And we can just sit in there and make some flowers bracelets, too, auntie Y/N will teach us", Charles spoke as you walked to the park, a few people noticing him but thankfully not making a big scene out of it.
"I keep thinking about the ice cream parlour, hopefully they gave my favourite", you admitted, kissing his cheek, "but the duckies are a great selling point, too", you winked.
You had been sitting near the benches for a little while, flower chain bracelets already done as Céline started getting hungry, "how about I go get your ice cream and you start on her yogurt?", Charles suggested, kissing the top of your head and tickling the little girl's tummy before heading to the shop.
"That was a big one, baby girl!", you cooed as Céline ate all of the yogurt on the spoon, cleaning the remnants on her lips with the spoon before going back in on the pot when you were interrupted, "I'm sorry, dear", a female voice called.
Turning around, you saw a beautiful older woman, you guessed around her seventies, "this fell from your husband's pocket, and I bet your daughter would miss it soon", she said as she handed you the small stuffed toy Céline loved so much.
"Thank you so much, neither of us noticed and she would have made a fuss if we didn't have it back home", you smiled, "but we're not-", you were interrupted again by Céline's squeal when she saw Charles come back.
"Here's your ice cream, amour", Charles said as the lady smiled, "I was just bringing your daughter's toy back - it slipped from your pocket", she explained, sensing Charles' curiosity about her presence.
"Merci - can you say Merci, Céline?", he tried as the little girl babbled something that resembled the word.
"Enjoy them when they're this young, times truly flies by! You have such a beautiful family", she complimented before waving the three of you goodbye, joining who you presumed was her husband as they walked out of the park hand in hand.
"I tried correcting her but then you showed up", you said, "we are family, though", Charles reasoned, taking a spoonful of your ice-cream, "but I know what you mean. She's not wrong though, we look like a cute little family", he smiled.
"One day", you smiled, "one day, amour, we're going to have a little one of our own to squish a fill with love, won't we Céline? Do you want little cousins to play with?", he said as he took her into his lap, boucing her on his knee as she giggled loudly.
(Thank you for submitting an ask ✨️)

I'd love to do that for you! hehe

"you came.." "you called."
Toph x Fem!Reader
⛰️🔥
Tumblr media
Summary: After Toph's childhood best friend is banished from Gaoling along with her family, she finds out that all she needed to do was ask her to come back to her.
Trigger Warning: Implied Abuse, smooching
Reader Info: Female intended, Firebender, Lesbian,
Extra: Toph is aged up to 16! The story of Avatar takes longer in this AU
...
The letters were the only thing Toph had of her. She was the only person outside of her family that bothered to learn how to write braille, so it had more meaning that anyone else realized.
(Y/N) was the type of person you could never let go. She was kind, considerate, and still had the ability to be playful and hilarious. She never minded that Toph was blind, and supported her through all of the things she wanted to accomplish -- like being the blind bandit. She was like a fire, burning the passion in Toph's heart.
Toph met (Y/N) in school, before Toph was homeschooled. They were both seven, and the whole class was practicing their writing. Toph sat there quietly, listening to the snickers of her taunting classmates.
"We're going to practice our letters."
The teacher's voice was old, and Toph could sense that she didn't want to deal with the rowdy kids. A boy giggled beside her, before Toph heard the shuffling of his clothes, raising his hand.
"How is she supposed to write?"
The boy pointed to Toph, and the class laughed. Toph frowned, crossing her arms and scrunching her eyes closed. She felt her face become hot with embarrassment.
"Oh shut up Ying!"
A girl said aggressively, scoffing at the boy's remark.
Toph heard stomping growing louder and louder, until Ying was shoved roughly against the wooden floors of the classroom. Small gasps were heard from around, causing Toph to smile slightly.
"Ms (L/N)!"
The teacher yelled, running over to check up or Ying.
The boy held the back of his head, tears rolling down his chubby cheeks. (Y/N) frowned, crossing her small arms and looking at the roof.
"Do not push people!"
(Y/N) groaned, crouching down so she was eye level with Toph.
She heard (Y/N)'s feet pivoting on the floor, causing her to turn her head in the direction of the noise.
"Don't worry -- i won't let them bully you."
Toph stopped writing her after her parents told her to, 'not write that evil girl'. It was only eight months after their family was sent away from Gaoling, but it felt like an eternity to Toph.
Toph didn't think she was evil.
The day was so unexpected, so sudden. Toph was the only person in the village that knew about (Y/N)"s family and their origin, who they were.
Two generations before (Y/N), her family arrived in Gaoling as refugees from the fire nation. Her grandfather, an ex-general, was sent away for treason. He took his people with him, ending up in Toph's village after a year of travel.
(Y/N) was born a firebender. Her family always encouraged her to hide the power, to act as a non-bender. It was easy, at first, since she had no one to teach her -- until Toph.
Even though Toph wasn't a firebender, she still told (Y/N) fighting tactics to be a bender from her classes. In secret, (Y/N) would practice. She would practice long and hard because she thought she might need it someday.
That was her demise.
"When's your next match?"
(Y/N) asked in the darkness of the cave, a small fire blooming from her palm. Toph thought for a moment, her fighting stand loosening. (Y/N) tossed the flame between her palm, the warm light reflecting on her face.
They were both ten years old. Toph was the youngest fighter in the secret earthbending matches, and (Y/N) attended all of them. She was the Blind Bandit's biggest fan.
"Tomorrow evening, i think."
(Y/N) hummed, leaning back on the rock she was sitting on. She winced as her left arm grazed against the rock, still raw from her injury.
"How does it feel?"
Toph asked, causing (Y/N) to look up.
"What?"
"The burn, how bad does it hurt?"
(Y/N) let out a small, 'oh', before looking down to her arm. It was bandaged up with a white cloth gauze, hiding the evidence of her parents anger.
She shrugged, flipping her arm over to inspect the bandages.
"I mean, it's fine. Doesn't hurt as bad as it did when mom got mad."
Toph nodded solemnly, huffing out an exasperated breath.
"You should really tell someone, y'know."
She was only greeted with a groan, knowing that meant no.
"I can't -- they'll wonder how she burnt me. It's kind of hard to lie when it's the shape of a handprint.."
(Y/N) laughed weakly, leaning back carefully so to not bump the scar. She sighed, closing her eyes and dropping the flame.
Toph dropped the rock she was levitating in front of her, hitting the ground with a 'thump!'. She turned her feet, walking over to where (Y/N) laid.
"You don't need to comfort me."
(Y/N) didn't need to open her eyes to see what Toph was doing. She would lay next to her, hold (Y/N) close. There was always something between them, something unidentifiable, something that normal friends didn't have.
They never really recognized this 'feeling', only letting it happen. Even if they did like eachother, their family would approve.
But they don't.
Right?
"Oh come on, you know you need it."
Toph crawled onto the flat boulder scrambling over to where (Y/N) was. She reached her hand over her torso, wrapping her hand around (Y/N)'s waist.
Even though she said she didn't want it, (Y/N) leaned in. Toph was significantly smaller than her, but she still placed her forehead on her collar.
"See. Toph is always right."
(Y/N) scoffed, roller her eyes under her eyelids. She sighed, thinking about what to say next.
Her face was horribly hot, and she was actually thankful that Toph was blind for once. Despite her 'luck', Toph could still hear her heart beating at a surprisingly fast speed.
"Hey, why's your hear-"
"Wanna hear about a new trick i learned?!"
(Y/N) quickly interrupted Toph, wanting to avoid the question. She removed herself from Toph's grasp, scooting off the boulder. She stood up, dusting off her uniform and clearing her throat.
Toph shifted, sitting fully. She felt a stab in het heart, confused as to why (Y/N) was so sudden to leave.
"Sure..?"
(Y/N) shifted awkwardly, swallowing the lump in her throat.
"Okay so.."
As she described the move to Toph, rolling a ball of fire from the top of her hands across her arms and over her shoulders, making its way to her other hand, a rumbling feeling settled in Toph's stomach
She tried to listen to (Y/N), but every few seconds she swore she heard footsteps echo in the floor.
"Hey (Y/N)-"
"See, you gotta move your hair so you don't catch fire."
Toph was now sure that the sounds were footsteps. Her stomach sank.
"(Y/N) hold on-"
(Y/N) was too focused on trying to not catch fire to listen to Toph's worried plea. Toph stood up, walking quickly over to the firebender.
"Wait, stop for a moment-"
"Ms. Beifong?"
Oh spirits.
Toph turned to the voice, her face going pale. She grew sick at the voice, recognizing as one of her bodyguards.
(Y/N) let the fire fade out, also looking at the bodyguard. He looked at (Y/N), stepping back.
He looked back to Toph, beckoning her over to him.
"Ms. Beifong, step away from her."
Toph shook her head quickly, running a few steps forward to the bodyguard.
"Listen, shes-"
"She's a firebender!"
The bodyguard grasped Toph's wrists, shoving her behind him. She almost fell back out of the entrance of the cave, but caught herself.
She reached out, shooting up. a wall of rock from the floor in front of the bodyguard. He stopped in his tracks, turning around to look at Toph.
(Y/N) cowered, breaking a sweat. She was caught.
...
Toph sat on a log around the campfire, holding five pieces of paper in her thin hands.
She rubbed her thumb over the bumpy text, sighing softly.
A week ago, while the Gaang was stopping off in Ba Sing Se for a quick bite, Toph had an idea. It had been four years since she left her family behind, but this whole time, she never wrote a letter to (Y/N).
She thought it'd be stupid -- surely she wouldn't even remember who Toph was. There was a possibility that she also left her family, or, the worst outcome, she hated Toph for never speaking to her.
Toph had injured her ankle after hopping off Appa earlier that day, and Katara said that she should stay at camp instead of going out to find food with the rest of her friends. She was, of course, very angry by this, but it was four vs. one.
So, she listened to the crackling of the fire, petting a sleeping Momo softly and reading the letters. It was her guilty pleasure.
As she read the last letter she ever received from (Y/N), she heard a stick break in the woods. Both her and Momo looked up, ears perking at the noise.
Toph jumped up, limping over to where Aang left his staff. Momo chirped behind her hopping over to her hurt ankle and holding onto it.
"Momo, shut up."
She hissed, grabbing the wooden staff. Toph turned her head to hear all of her surroundings, trying to find where the noise came from.
Ruffling of leaves to her left.
She turned and limped towards the campfire, going around it and facing a cluster of trees.
"I can hear you! Give up."
She yelled, getting into a fighting stance. She hissed, her hurt ankle not used to the pressure.
The crunching of leaves turned into soft footsteps, growing louder and louder until Toph swung the staff in front of her.
Then it came to a sudden stop.
A hand had caught it in its motion, stopping before Toph could hit the perpetrator. She let out a few curses, taking a step back.
She reached her hand out, lifting a few rocks to the side of the figure. Before she could launch the rocks at them, a cold palm graced their cheek.
She stopped in her tracks, startled by the feeling.
"What the-"
"Toph."
She swatted the hand from her face, surprised at the fact they knew her name.
"Who are you?"
"Toph."
And then she realized.
She opened her eyes wide, a small gasp choking out of her throat. The voice was deeper than she remembered, more mature and aged. Toph tilted her head, trying to process what was really going on.
Toph reached up, touching the tips of her fingers to their cheekbone. She slid it down her cheek, touching her jawline and holding the knob of her chin. Her fingers graced her soft lips, touching the tip of her nose and sliding up to run her fingers though the taller's hair.
She felt a sob in her throat, realizing who it was. Everything felt so familiar all of a sudden, like she was a little kid playing in the sun again.
"(Y/N)."
It was one word, just a simple utter of a name, but it held so much meaning to both of them. Toph hadn't said that name since she was eleven, not even bothering to speak of her to anyone.
She launched forward, bringing (Y/N) in for a tight hug. She was much taller now, towering over Toph's small figure. Her hair was longer, and she had the body of a woman -- not like the ten year old Toph remembered.
"Y-You got my letter?"
Toph felt so weird talking so weakly like this, but life felt so simple with (Y/N) there.
"Yeah, I did."
Toph could sense the smile through her words, only hugging (Y/N) tighter. She hugged back, holding the back of Toph's head with her hand. Her other landed on Toph's waist, bringing the shorter against her.
When sending the letter, she asked (Y/N) to come to Ba Sing Se. Toph never believed that she would actually come, let alone find her way miles out from the kingdom to find her.
"You came.."
(Y/N) pushed Toph back gently, looking down at the girl below. She smiled kindly, leaning down.
"You called."
Before Toph could think, (Y/N)'s lips grazed hers, a soft kiss planted on her lips. She pulled back too quickly, and Toph already missed the contact. She grabbed (Y/N)'s face, bringing her back down and kissing her again.
...
BONUS!!
"Who the hell is that?"
Sokka said, looking to Toph and (Y/N) as they laid cuddled up in her tent. The morning sun peeked behind Sokka and Katara as they looked curiously.
"I have.. no idea."

•at a young age you dreamed of being a hero like your father and go to UA to be just like him as much as Aizawa loved to look up to you he could never let you be a hero but always shut the topic down with a strict warning you kept pressuring him trying to convince him, bribe him anything you even did the puppy eyes he secretly loves so much but he stood his ground and said no his final answer
•Aizawa was teaching his boring lesson to the class when he heard his ringtone but it wasn't his usual ringtone "Dad pumpkin spit a hairball in your shoe" he quickly turned his phone off flushed red in embarrassment he slowly turned to see the class in shock and some of them giggling a bit "YOU HAVE A CHILD?!"
• the classrooms were in chaos they were now fixated on their teacher's kid they were all asking questions about ur description, Quirk, Personality everything they wanted to know everything about you, Aizawa quickly quieted them down "Everyone needs to quiet down!

•"Y/N!, Kid we need to talk" you walked downstairs to see that your father was looking really serious like this was gonna be a long talk you gulped mentally "yea Dad also did you get my voicemail?" "That's the one we're talking about," your father said his eyes narrowing at you "But another thing since villains these days are commonly targeting heroes these days and I was worried about what would happen to you when you're home alone so I decided to nezu about enrolling you to Ua High-" just when you said that you jumped in his arms hugging him so tight "YES YES THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU" Aizawa may be defeated and nervous but seeing you bleamed up like you used to as a kid made him think you'll be fine "Alright then you start tomorrow im sure my class will love you"

You smiled at Lilly as she sat on your lap with her book. You read it to her as she read along and learned new words. You did a funny voice making her squeal with laughter and clap her little hands. Your daughter brought so much joy to your and Levi's lives.
Lilly looked up as the door opened and closed. "Daddy!"
Levi chuckled. "Wait there! I have a gift!"
You knew very well Levi was taking his shoes off and then slipping his slippers on to keep his house clean. You hugged Lilly and felt excited to see your husband. "A fun gift, huh? It's exciting."
Levi walked into the living room with his jacket looking bigger than normal. "I think you're gonna like it." He zipped down a bit causing a dog to pop its head out. "Ta da!"
Lilly gasped. "Puppy!"
Levi put the puppy down on its paws. "You can name him anything you want."
"Cupcake!"
He let out a long sigh. "Cupcake?"
She giggled. "I joke!"
He knelt and hugged his daughter. "You little rascal. So, what do you want to call him?"
She slipped off your lap and petted the dog. "Mm...Hades!"
"Great name. I'll get a nametag for him."
She ran around with Hades and giggled. "Good boy!"
Levi sat next to you and sighed. "He's a cute dog, huh? Don't worry, I will train him and Mike will help too, seeing as he is a dog trainer."
You hugged his arm and kissed his cheek a few times. "Perfect. He'll be a very good boy." You smiled at Levi. "Speaking of good boys."
Levi smiled at you. "You know I love it when you call me that."
You kissed him and hummed against his lips. "I love you."
"I love you too."
You slapped his thigh making him buck. "Now, my handsome hubby, I need you to look after the two darlings so I can go pee tinkle."
He winked at you. "Sure. Hurry back, I wanna kiss and cuddle."
You got up and squealed when Levi slapped your ass. "Naughty."
"You know I am."
You hummed a laugh and made your way to your and Levi's private bathroom connected to your bedroom. Normally, you'd go to the one downstairs but there was something in this one that you needed. Inside this bathroom, there were a few pregnancy tests. Everyone wanted another Ackerman in this family, but you didn't know if it was going to happen so soon with the talks.
You took three tests and cleaned up. You weren't expecting a positive but you just wanted to give it a go. You collected the tests and shoved them in your pocket before making your way back to your husband and daughter. He made your heart flutter by taking sweetly with his little girl and teaching her about dogs.
"Cute."
Levi sat back and smiled. "Thank you." He eyed your pocket. "What you got?"
You handed him the three tests. "I thought I'd give them a go."
He hummed and looked at them. "Holy sugar! Honey? You're pregnant."
Your eyes widened. "What?"
He jumped up with a grin and showed you the tests. "Look! Three positives! We're having another baby!"
You squealed in delight as Levi scooped you up and spun around with you. "A baby!"
Lilly ran over. "Baby? Where?"
Levi put you down. "In mummy's tummy. You're going to be a big sister!"
"YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY!"
You giggled as Lilly ran around. "A puppy and two kids. What a wonderful family."
Levi kissed you. "It's perfect."

Damian Wayne was an interesting student to say the least and when you called his father in for a parent teacher conference you were quite surprised when a handsome man about your age showed up instead of the Bruce Wayne you frequently saw on TV.
"I'm sorry are you a parent?" You ask him.
"Oh no I'm Damian Wayne's brother Dick, our father Bruce wasn't able to make it so he asked me to come instead," he explains.
"Well as nice as it is to meet you Dick I called your father in to talk about some of Damians… behavior issues which I should really talk to Bruce himself about," he states.
"Don't worry he's just as frustrating at home, he knows he's smarter than most people and has a big head because of it… you should see him argue with our other brother Jason, pretty funny actually when he confuses Jason with big words but anyways, we have a very… close family and we all take part in raising Damian so whatever you have to say to Bruce you can say to me too," Dick tells you.
Damn was he charming.
"Okay well have a seat then," you say.
You guys ended up talking for over an hour which consisted a lot of Dick telling you about their crazy family antics making you laugh harder than you had in a long time.
"This is probably really weird to ask but would you like to get dinner with me sometime Mr. Y/L/N?" He asks boldly with a smile you just couldn't say no to.
"I usually have a no dating my students parents policy but since you aren't a parent… I would love to and please call me Y/N," you smile back at him.
"It's a date Y/N," he says happily.
After a few dates you became officially boyfriends but you decided it was best to keep your relationship with Dick a secret until it got more serious.
Though Jason found out a month in because he has a habit of going through Dicks phone to annoy his older brother and stumbled upon some flirty texts between you two.
After six months you and Dick agreed it was time to tell his family so Dick set up a dinner telling them he would be introducing them to his new boyfriend.
Jason was particularly excited to see Damian's reaction and of course he started filming when there was a knock at the door
"Everyone, I'd like to introduce you to my boyfriend… Y/N," Dick says cheerfully.
"Richard! You're dating my teacher!" Damian shouts.
Tim chuckles and whispers to Stephanie, "guess we're getting a dinner and a show."
The entire dinner Damian was glaring at Dick while the others were trying to get to know you.
"So Y/N how long have you been a teacher?" Barbara asks.
"This is only my second year teaching," you reply.
"How fun, you get to deal with a problem child like Damian early on in your career," Jason teases.
"Damian certainly isn't a problem he just doesn't exactly like to socialize with the other kids," you say wanting to assure Bruce you didn't think negatively of his son.
"Because they are learning basic algebra I already know advanced Calculus," Damian scoffs.
"Bruce, have you ever considered enrolling Damian in the gifted program?" You ask.
"I have but Damian can learn whatever he wants at home but the only way for him to spend time with kids his own age is at school," Bruce explains.
"Plus if Damian had been in the gifted program I never would have met you," Dick says leaning in and kissing you sweetly.
Damian rolls his eyes while Cass and Duke aw at how cute you and Dick are.
At the end of the dinner Dick walks you out to your car.
"I hope my family didn't scare you off," he jokes.
"Your family is great Dick, I just don't want to make things awkward with Damian at school," you tell him.
"Damian will get over it he always does and besides the school year is almost over in a few months you won't even be his teacher anymore," Dick says.
"Well… they are actually thinking of bumping me up a grade next year so there's a chance I'll have him again in the fall," you chuckle.
"I'll talk to him, promise," Dick laughs kissing you goodnight before you get in your car and drive off.
Dick heads up to Damians room where he finds him throwing daggers into a target on the wall.
"Okay Damian be honest with me, do you actually have a problem with me dating your teacher," Dick questions.
"Of course not, I actually like Mr. Y/L/N, he's far better than my teacher last year," Damian replies.
"So then why were you giving me the death glare all night?" Dick says confused.
"Because Richard, what if you screw things up and I can't go to his after school extra credit study sessions anymore, I consider those people acquaintances and some of them are even intelligent," Damian states.
"Hold on, why do you assume I would be the one to screw things up? You know what, not the point, anyways, if for whatever reason Y/N and I were to break up we would never let it affect you or your education. Most of your future teachers are not going to be as understanding of you as Y/N is so we gotta take advantage of a good teacher while we can," Dick jokes.
"Good. Do not break his heart Richard," Damian says throwing a dagger past Dicks ear and into the target behind him which doesn't even phase Dick.
"Again why am I bad guy in this hypothetical situation??" Dick huffs.
"You have a good talk boys?" Jason says strutting into Damians room.
"Jason you have got to stop snooping," Dick sighs.
"How else am I supposed to know about my brother's secret boyfriends before everyone else," Jason grins.
"Wait you knew Richard was dating my teacher this whole time?" Damian huffs.
"Gotta go… patrol stuff," Jason says awkwardly exiting the room.
Well at least Dick would be happy to report to you that Damian approved of your relationship.

ASL X MOTHER READER
Sorry it took so long to write this.
ASL BOYS REACT TO YOU, SPENDING SLEEP OVER WITH THEM.
LUFFY
"MOM?! WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?!" Luffy, ask, you smile. "Oh, to spend time with you and your crew." You said. Luffy jaw dropped to a surprise, and the whole crew drop.
Luffy introduced to you, his crew, and let say the straw hat crew we're pretty shocked. And whole crew will ask you so many questions.
Asking how you're luffy mother? How did you rise him? There is no way you rise a idiot?! Yeah... you told them that you rise Luffy and his brothers. Ace and sabo.
And your sister joins in too, luffy decided to give you some breakfast. He will just yell at sanji to bake food for you, "this tastes really good," you said.
"See! Sanji is the best cook!" Said luffy, luffy will tell you all the story he and his crew went, beat some bad guys. "Excuse me, luffy mom, can I ask you a question?" Nami asked.
(Luffy and your sister We're fighting about he took her lunch)
"Just call me Mrs. (Y/N) and you will call my sister Mrs. (S/N)," you said with a kind soft voice. "Mrs. (Y/N), how do you manage to sail across here?" She asked.
"Yeah, how do you and aunt (S/N) sail all the way here?" Luffy asks, you look at your sister. "Well, we didn't sail all the way to your ship. We flew." Said (S/N), "WHAT!?" The crew yelled.
"YOU CAN FLY!?" Chopper asks, with joy. (S/N) Look at Chooper with a confused look, "Who said, we can fly?" She questioned. Everyone was frozen thinking, if you and your sister didn't fly, then how did you fly.
Then, a loud noise sounded like a bird scream. The crew went out to see this bird creature:
Tumblr media
"WHAT IS THAT!?" Nami yelled, "TAMA!!"Luffy yelled, hugging the creature name tama. The crew was frozen in shock, and zoro almost attacked tama.
Robin was curious about tama. You told them tama is a mountain banshee, and the strawhat crew never heard about the mountain banshee.
Yeah... so, you let luffy ride tama for a bit. You show some baby pictures book of your boys, luffy kinda embarrassed.
ACE
"MOM!?" Ace question, seeing you riding on tama. You told him you came here to have more time with him. And you meet whitebeard, "it been in a long time (S/N),(Y/N)" he said.
"I see you grown old, whitebeard," said (S/N), Edward laugh. "I see you become a mother. How was shank? Is he still flirting with you?" He asked, you chulked.
"Think again. He still hasn't given up," you said, shook your head. "Well, it been a long time, (Y/N)," said marco, and your siblings are here too, your brother. He was with whitebeard crew.

You watch Ace eating some meat and talk about the adventures he had, and then he falls asleep. You laughed, and the whole crew started to laugh, too.
Ace shows you his fire skill and his sticker. You were amazed by his life he had, being a show off. But... you did bring a baby photo book of Ace when he was baby.
The crew tries not to laugh so hard, and ace is still kinda embarrassed. He wants to tell you not to show more baby photos of him, but you couldn't resist.
Whitebeard ask you and your sister to join them, but you can't. Cause you came here to see your son, it really hurt ace, but he understands.
SABO
You and your sister arrived at okama Island, where sabo is at, and you met Dragon, luffy Real Father. He thanked you for rising luffy as a mother.
"Mother! Is nice to meet you here! And you too, as well auntie (S/N)!" Said sabo, he hugs you tight, knowing that how much he misses his mother so much. You meet sabo friends, they pepper dinner.
Sabo eats quite normal. You remember he went crazy when he was a kid, he changed a lot. Your sister train sabo, how trust the creature from your hometown.
And she teaches him how to fly with tama, even though tama doesn't quite remember sabo, but she still remembers him when he was a kid. And guess what? You show them the baby photos book!
It was quickly when sabo remembered the photos. You're glad to see sabo again, and sabo told you how it happened. How he didn't die.
You teach sabo how to communicate with other animals from your country. You remember it was yesterday when you taught your sons about your hometown.
"Hey, mom... do you remember the lullaby? When you sang for us?" Said sabo, you smiles. "Hush, hush... Baby rabbit on the hillside... Why are your eyes so red? When I was small... mother ate the fruit of the red tree... and that's why my eyes are red" you sang
THANK YOU FOR WAITING!!! I

PAS DE DEUX — regulus black
Tumblr media
summary: all is fair in love and ballet. well, *hate* and ballet.
pairings: dancer!regulus black x dancer!fem!reader
wc: 1.3k
notes: prefacing this by saying yes i have done ballet for 13 years, but nothing too serious or in a company so i don't know much abt like formal partnering or pas de deux training really. i just think regulus black would've been a killer ballerina.
there is no one you detest more that regulus black. and for justified reasons, too!
not just because he's an annoyingly attractive prick that has infinite sex appeal but knows it so acts like an absolute dick.
no, not just because of that.
from day one, you have worked your ass off to be at the royal ballet school. your parents have spent endless amounts of money on leotards that match the rich girls, new pointe shoes when you break the shank after two weeks, even leg warmers when the ballet gods occasionally decide to bring those back into fashion.
how hard has regulus black had to work to earn his spot? approximately the same amount of work that goes into lifting your pinky.
the golden boy of the royal ballet school is from france which gives him even more unnecessary cool kid points. he makes jokes with the french instructors so no one else can understand, he complains about his chateaux of a house and his "horrible" rich, entitled parents.
anyone who has parents that can send them to the royal ballet school without making a dent in their retirement fund doesn't get the opportunity to complain like he does in your opinion.
to top it all off, everyone loves regulus black. everyone except you apparently. you're the only person that can see past the humble, ultra-talent persona to the untrustworthy snake trying to steal your thunder.
in your mind, there can only be one prodigy from your class and it has to be you.
this summer was going to be a breath of fresh air for you. regulus always returns to france to his affluent, posh family over the summer while you always spend summers training harder than anyone else.
this year, you chose to take a partnering intensive. you knew that the upcoming year would involve lots of pas de deux work, so refining your partnering over the summer seemed like a smart idea.
unfortunately, your brilliant summer plans were thwarted.
on the first day of class, you entered feeling giddy. you had on a new blush leo and a fresh pair of pointe shoes you had sewn and broken in last night. your hope was to be partnered with evan rosier. even though he wasn't the best male dancer (that would be regulus), the blonde boy was strong and would be a supportive partner.
evan's kind face was not what greeted you as you walked into the studio. it was regulus black with a smug grin on his face.
"hello, partner dearest," regulus called out as you passed through the door.
the glare that took over your face would've been enough to make any boy run away screaming, but not regulus black. never regulus black.
your friends sent you sympathetic glances as your hatred of the boy was well known. you had never put on your shoes more aggressive or obnoxiously as you did that day.
during warm-ups, you attempted to glare at regulus the entire time. he knew you took the intensives every summer so he must've appeared this year to spite you.
the thing is, regulus did know that you stayed at the school every summer. he also knew that would be doing a partnering intensive. he also knew that there was no one at this school good enough to be your partner. except for him.
so regulus didn't return to france. he had to dance with you. he was addicted to it.
once it is time to begin dancing with your partner, you begrudgingly stomp over to regulus (in the front of the room of course). as soon as you stand in front of him, he places his hands on your hips.
"stop that," you hiss, swatting away his hands as trelawney starts animatedly teaching.
"y/n. we're going to have to do a lot more touching than that."
"maybe i should just cut your hands off in your sleep."
"i think you would miss my hands."
"i think you're insufferable."
"we'll see about that."
as somewhat of an attention whore, one thing you love about class is you have always been used as an example.
alas, you now had to be the example with regulus.
as the day went on and more skills were taught, you had to feel regulus's hands hold yours, brush up and down your sides, hold your waist, and cradle your body.
his touch left trails of heat as you danced, like fires were burning through your thin clothing wherever he touched.
by the end of class you were exhausted. not just from hours of being on your box, but hours of fighting off thoughts about regulus.
for the next week, you and regulus learned together, sweat together, and labored together all while throwing snarky comments at the other.
"do you really need to grab me so harshly?"
"well when you're practically falling off your box i do."
"please try not to snap my leg off. i only have two."
"i know you can extend more than that, y/n."
"are you even paying attention?"
"sorry, i was staring at your gorgeous face."
actually... you didn't know what that last one was about, but you just let it slide as another sarcastic comment.
that saturday night, you and regulus decided to meet in an empty studio after class to run through one of the pas de deuxs you would be performing throughout the intensive.
that night, you spoke minimally to each, only to give small pointers and small words of praise.
you knew you danced beautifully together. you could feel the graceful and easy way you moved across the floor together. it felt effortless to turn and be lifted in his arms.
as the music faded out of your last run, you had your eyes closed, breathing heavily in the final pose. you turned your head to the mirror and saw something you'd never expected. regulus's head was still turned towards you with an adoring smile on his face. he looked like he almost... liked you.
of course regulus knew how he was looking at you. you were the most beautiful dancer he had ever seen. he thanked his past self every day for deciding to avoid his parents in france and stay here with you at the school. he knew that when you weren't looking, his eyes carried every bit of admiration he had for you.
and then your head turned back to him, catching him in the act. he was still holding you in the final pose of the dance, and you gazed up at him with a gentle, yet confused look on your face. he didn't shy away from your look. he continued to stare into your eyes with the most starry look.
"that was magnificent you two! quite the prime partners i've put together!"
you both sprung apart as trelawney's loud voice rang through the empty studio.
"such grace, such talent, such chemistry for two young people!"
the blush on your cheeks was the worst it's ever been, and no one could pay you to turn to look at regulus.
"um. thank you, trelawney," you responded shakily. "regulus and i were just about to-"
"leave," regulus interrupted, already gathering his stuff and making a run for the door.
your stomach dropped at his hasty movements, doubting everything that just happened between the two of you.
"well then, i'll see you both tomorrow for class," trelawney made her extravagant exit.
you kept your head down to avoid seeing regulus's face. was he mad? disappointed? maybe you shouldn't care. this was regulus. the boy you've been hating forever. right?
"y/n," regulus spoke softly from right in front of you. your eyes were directed at the floor, but he gently grabbed your chin to bring your gaze up. he still looked at you tenderly, in a way you both had never looked at each other before. as far as you knew.
"same thing tomorrow?" he asked.
all you could do was nod, as you watched the boy you thought you hated left you feeling hopeful in the quiet dance studio.
regulus black will forever be a french ballet dancer in my mind. also, i would totally do a part two for this, but i don't even know what the part two would entail? hope you loved my enemies to lovers ballerinas <3.

Daddy's little princess /// Azriel X F!Reader
Summary: With Nik sick and Y/N taking him to Madja, the bat trio are left alone to take care of Nova and unfortunately for them, she really likes princesses.
Warnings: None just pure fluff
Word Count: 950
Note: I really love Dad!Az and i saw the idea of having the same kids in other fics in the @azsazz blog, she was really sweet and let me use this idea as well. So we got more of Nova and Nikolai.
Main Masterlist
It was hard for fae to get sick, but as hours passed and the little 4 year old keeps getting hotter, Y/N was getting terrified. Azriel was with his brothers, their first day off in weeks, she felt guilty to call him back, but their son’s well being was way more important than this. Reaching for him through the bond, he was quick to reply, letting her know that he was on his way.
“What happened?” He asked appearing in the middle of the living room, his shadows swirling around him furiously, looking for whatever was wrong. His brothers behind him, ready to jump in the fight.
“I think that Nik is sick, i will take him to Madja, you will have to take care of Nova, we can't risk getting her sick too.” She said, she was ready to leave, their daughter walked in the room, looking at the adults, her chubby face swollen from sleep. Azriel got to her, picking her up and kissing her cheek.
“Don’t worry about her, Nova is going to have fun with her uncles.” Rhys said, as she smiled at him. “Feyre is going to meet you there.” And with that the female was gone.
Azriel Pov
The kettle made a loud noise, pulling me out of my thoughts, reaching for it, a poured the tea on the fancy tea cup set, and walked back to Nova’s room. When Cassian asked her what she wanted to do, he certainly didn't expect that we would end up seated on a tiny pink plastic chair, with feather necklaces and plastic crowns on our heads.
“We’re all princesses now.” She giggle in pure delight, we looked at each other, trying hard not to laugh, the most powerful beings alive on this situation, if our enemies looked at us right now.
“Could you please pass me a cupcake princess Nova?” Cassian asked, a high pitched voice, he was really getting into it, Nesta would love to know. Rhysand grabbed his cup, ready to drink when she stopped him, a disapproval look on her tiny face.
“Uncle Rhysie, you have to lift your pinkie.” She picked her cup up, her finger lifting as she drink it, Rhys did the same and she nodded. “You are a truly princess now.” Cassian laughed hard, sending a kiss in Rhysand’s direction. “Daddy?”
“Yes darling?”
“Your crown is falling.” She got up, getting on the tip of her toes to fix it for me, i hugged her and she caressed my cheek with her little hands. “A pretty princess.” She said proudly before sitting down again.
“You’re really a pretty princess Az” Rhys’s voice sounded in my head.
The tea party ended when Cassian broke his chair, falling on the ground, Nova wasn’t happy with it but she quickly came up with another idea.
“Auntie Mor teached me how to do make up.” The toddler said, rushing to get her mother’s make up. Rhys was her first victim, we watched as she worked on his face aplying the products with her fingers.
“Someone remind me to kick Morrigan later.” Rhys said as he looked himself in the mirror, his cheeks were colored with a bright shade of pink, his lips were deep red and blue stained his eyelids, and of course, his face was glowing with the glitter she aplied on him. We ended up with the same make up.
“Daddy, can you do mine?” She seemed so happy and i only nodded, getting to her level, i started applying the same makeup look she did to us, finishing with the glitter, she ran to the mirror, admiring herself she smiled. “We're all pretty princesses.”
“I agree honey.” A female voice sounded from behind us. We turned to see Feyre, Y/N and Nesta standing by the door, a smirk adorning their features.
“Mommy!!!” Nova screamed, rushing to her mother. “We had a tea party. Uncle Cass broke my chair.” She was pouting. Nesta laughed at her mate. “Where’s Nik?”
“He’s downstairs baby, he’s playing with Nyx, you can go there if you want to.” The little girl rushed to get to her brother.
“Is he okay?” I asked, and she got closer to me, a wide smile on her face.
“He got a cold, she got rid of his fever and he’s going to be just fine.” I sighed, relieved that it wasn't nothing too serious. “Thanks for taking care of her, but i feel like i should let you all know that she’will definitely want to do this again.” Cassian groaned playfully and the room brust into laughter.
⋆˙⟡☾𖤓☽ ⟡˙⋆
Y/N exited the bathroom, her hair wet from her bath, i opened my arms and she jumped on me, pulling her closer i kissed her head.
“I think that you should wear that crown more often, it suits you.”!I rolled my eyes at her. “She’s lucky to have you and her uncles.”
“She’s my baby girl, i would do anything for her. For them both.” Y/N looked at me, her eyes filled with love.
The door of our room opened and Nik and Nova entered.
“Can we sleep here?” Nik asked, he was holding her hand. Y/N patted on the bed and they climbed, getting between us. “We love you Mommy.” He said, kissing his mother’s face.
“And we love you daddy.” Nova said kissing me. Pulling the three closer, i watched as they all drift to sleep, happy with my wonderful family.

Tumblr media
raiden
She insisted on having tea with you, quite interested with the fact that you were an outlander not of this world or even of this universe.
You were only able to meet Ei, as the Shogun was out issuing a few decrees and speeches when you had arrived - mainly the ones to abolish the Sakoku Decree that remained since the Traveler had arrived.
You had brought some gifts, as you felt it was polite, and had heard word that Ei liked sweets. She especially enjoyed the dango that you had brought, and you silently promised to yourself to bring more if you ever had a chance.
Ei was incredibly polite and soft-spoken, at least when being compared the Shogun. You remembered the Inazuman questline, and it made you shudder to think actually having to live through that.
"Elysia... or... Elie. Can I call you that?"
Of course you agree, since how could you refuse her?
"It's strange. You're a being like the Traveler, yet you do not carry the essence of the stars, but the very universe itself. You are quite the interesting thing, and I'd like to get to know you more."
Needless to say, the two of you stayed up far into the night discussing hundreds of various topics. At first, Ei had some shogunate stand on guard at the doors and other entrances, but after a while she let them only guard the outside.
I guess you could say she had grown to trust you.
Tumblr media
nahida
She almost acts like a kid around you, and you would've believed the farce if not for the extensive Sumeru storyline.
Nahida seems extra bubbly around you, occasionally holding your hand as she leads you through crowded places, like the Sumeru Marketplace or even at times, the Academia.
Through her, you've come to met quite a few of the key figures in Sumeru. Al Haitham, Tighnari, Cyno, Nilou, Dehya, Candace... even Collei, Dori, Faruzan, and Layla! While you are more acquainted with some more than few, you're glad to at least have been able to leave the impression on them.
The two of you decided to have a picnic after the drama in Sumeru died down a bit more, on the outskirts of Sumeru City. For someone so relatively young compared the the rest of the archons, she knows her fair share of stories, and she'll go on and on excitedly as she recites them to you.
Turns out she's actually a skilled arts and crafts maker! It makes you happy to see that she's embracing more of her... creative self after being stuck in the same place for so long.
Nahida teaches you how to make flower crowns out of various Sumeru specialties, like Sumeru roses or Kalapata lotuses! Her knowledge on Sumeru wildlife is an endless stream, which you figure makes sense, considering she is the archon of Dendro.
''Ellie! I have a gift for you." The small girl giggles, holding something behind her back. "But you have to close your eyes, okay?"
As you do so, you can hear her stand on her tippie-toes to reach and place something on your head.
"You can open your eyes now!" As you do, you spot that Nahida's now donning a crown made of delicately thread kalapata-lotuses, and as you glance up, you see that you're wearing one yourself, one made of Sumeru's violet roses.
"Hehe! Now we're matching!"
Tumblr media
venti
The first time you see him, it's at Angel Share. Surprisingly, he's not drinking, at least not yet, but instead playing away at his lyre with an otherworldly melody.
His fingerwork is perfectly precise, and you can't help but be entranced by his preformance.
You order a drink and take a seat at the nearest open table, watching and listening until Venti plays the last note on his lyre, which reverberates about the tavern like a reminiscent memory.
No one else in the bar seems to be sober enough to cheer, and it doesn't seem like the bartender cares, so you go up to him and personally give him a compliment, along with a fine bottle of dandelion wine you had bought just for the occasion.
He doesn't seem to be surprised when you tell him you know who he actually is, just grins and says, "Ehe, was it really that obvious?"
It doesn't take long for him to get absolutely wasted, but not before he's told you great deal about the history of Mondstadt and its people. He goes on and on when he gets to Vanessa, Mondstadt's hero like a proud parent before probably noticing your distant expression and changing the topic.
Turns out Venti knows more than he lets on. After a while into your conversation, his eyes light up as he questions, "You were looking for me, weren't you?"
Under his watchful gaze, you can't lie, nor were you planning to. As you tell him as much of your story in hushed undertones, at least as much as you'd like to share, Venti only nods understandingly and occasionally takes a sip or two of the wine you brought.
"I see... a person not of this..." He gestures a wobbly hand around the room. "Reality." You can tell he's going to black out sooner or later, but you try to keep him awake for as long as possible. Staring down at his flushed face and woozy expression, you have to hold back a good-natured giggle.
"Then let me ask you one question. Do you wish to go back?"
"Never."
"Good." And with that, he's out for the count, snoring on his tavern stool peacefully.
Tumblr media
zhongli
Zhongli was a busy man, you had concluded after trying to contact him several various times but only to be met by the a negative response each time.
One from Hu Tao - "Zhongli's currently down at the wharf, talking to some clients."
One from a fisherman on the dock - "That man? He's busy doing business in Northland Bank."
One from the kids on the street - "Mr. Zhongli is helping granny pick flowers!"
So when you finally get the chance to invite the distinguished man to Xinyue Kiosk, you do so with reckless abandon.
And, not surprisingly, he shows up. Zhongli is a man of his word, after all, considering he is, or used to be, the god of contracts.
After talking with him yourself, you could confirm just about every compliment you heard about him. He was level-headed, patient, understanding, and was shockingly wise.
Upon seeing you, he had given you a light bow, out of all things, before taking your hand and helping you to your chair. "Now then, the one from another universe, what do you inquire of me?
It had been a shock to see him treat you politely, considering you should've been the one to cater to him. "How could you tell?"
"It's... something in your eyes. People say eyes are the windows into the soul. Mine are filled with deep ombre colors, medals of my legacy and judgement. Yours..." The man paused, glancing up at you before continuing. "They are filled with a kaleidoscope of colorful hues, shades of sapphire, cerulean, ocean, amethyst, violet, lavender... it doesn't stop there, but I shan't bore you."
"Point being, your soul is untainted and brilliant, not one of this world." He gazed at you and smiled, his eyes twinkling. "Now then, shall I pour you some tea?"

"Everyone got everything ready?" You asked shoving your black boots on your feet, "yes" everyone replied with their masks on, you shoved your clown mask under you arm as kai went over everything one last time.
"We take out Sally and if anyone else is in there they meet the same fate" he said winter and Meadow already doing their part of the plan, leaving the rest on their merry way.
The mask now over your head hopping into the van Harrison driving to Sally's house, you and kai sat together masks now off, you were humming a tune kai didn't recall, "what songs that?" He asked, he always loved your passion for music even if you never wanted to be famous it was an outlet for you something to teach the kids you worked with.
"It's something I'm sort of working on not quite finished yet" you chuckled lightly, you felt like charles manson when kai would have you sing your songs to the cult them now memorising all the words, you didn't necessarily hate it glad they actually liked the shitty songs you called them.
"It will be great your really talented" he said something you heard him say to Meadow when she showed him her art work, you gave him a small smile his hand on your thigh, "we're almost there" Harrison called everyone putting their masks on including you.
"Ready baby?" Kai asked his voice muffled from his mask, "Let's do this" you replied as the van came to a halt, one by one you all stepped out and invaded the home of kai's opponent.
Entering the home greeted with Sally holding a gun, watching us as she pointed the gun, "please one of you assholes make a move, I'm desperate to make an example of someone" she said before someone came up behind her taking the gun off her holding her mouth closed knocking her to the ground.
Kai stood above her removing his mask, you watched him as he talked "you know what the problem is with you over educated elites?".
"You overestimate your ability to control the world" "killing me isn't going to stop the march of progress" Sally stated on the ground she wasn't in fear well visibly anyway.
"Maybe but it still going to feel so fucking good" kai said looking down at her "this is a spazim in democracy your nothing but a passing fever" she yelled at kai he just grinned evilly at her.
"And your the last of the intellectuals"
"Knowing stuff has no value anymore not when the answer is sitting in my back pocket or sitting on my desk" he said walking away you held keffler down as he went over to her laptop.
"The youth has it figured out the future will be filled with beautiful idiots who just want to feel" he continues looking at the screen of Sally's laptop.
"Facebook?" He asked now his attention on the screen, "you are old" he stated clicking on god knows what, "can I please kill her" you said now annoyed at her wriggling under you, "no, no y/n too sloppy we have to send a message with Sally that the world she knows is dead" kai said now making a Facebook status on Sally's unwilling behalf.
He clicked on the keypad as he voiced what he was typing on Facebook "dear followers and friends, tonight after many long nights of careful thinking, I have come to realise something that the truths we have always held to be self evident, all men are created equal, knowledge is power, ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country, they are all bullshit the future will be guided by self interest, self promotion and narcissism, and that is a future I can not stand and so this is my suicide note" kai said finishing off the status.
"NO, NO no please" Sally begged now in full fear of her life "already getting some likes" kai shrugged nonchalant taking a swig of whatever Sally had in her mug, "nobody going to believe that" Sally said trying to get out of yours and the others grasp, "mhmm of course they will" kai said turning around to us, "it's on Facebook".
"No, no" Sally tried to get out the grasp she was under kai walked over to her, gun in hand, he looked over to you as he placed the barrel of the gun on her chest, "wanna help?" He asked with a smirk you finger on top of his on the trigger as you pulled killing Sally keffler.
You felt nothing now used to doing this with kai, you knew you hated it but did nothing too lovesick to stop that was kai's disease making his followers that loyal it's like their lovesick ivy went off to search the house, you got off keffler kai pulling your mask off grabbing you smashing his lips onto yours infront of everyone, his tongue entering your mouth in the rough make out session.
Pulling away for air you were flustered as kai wiped down anything he touched just incase, you found the blunts that were laying on the table taking them for yourself, "no y/n no drugs" kai said, you let out a huff "it's just one kai won't hurt" you said taking one anyway not listening to him.
Putting your mask back on making sure you all were unseen as you hopped in the van going back home, again sat beside kai his eyes never left you as you talked with beverly hope, about something music related, he saw the passion in your eyes as you talked about something you loved, they same way they would light up in college when you got a chance to talk about music especially your favourite artists.
"You should play tonight y/n" Gary chimed in the conversation, "Yeah why not" you chuckled glancing over at kai who smiled down at you, you felt butterfly's in your stomach everytime kai looked at you like that with that glimmer in his eyes, you were so love sick it was unbelievable.
Kai felt the same he never wanted anything or anyone to hurt you, he wanted to spend the last of his days with you even all those years ago he felt like that and still does.
...
The day of Meadows attempt to shoot kai rolls along you dreaded it you couldn't bear to see kai in a hospital again, you stood in the crowd watching kai speak to the crowd the anxiety coursing through your body shaky hands trembling lip waiting on the dreaded moment.
You couldn't even hear what kai was talking about, you head spinning then, BANG, a gunshot fired hitting a woman close by you in the head, then straight at kai's thigh, you screamed in fear running up to kai as Meadow shot away.
Ally was screaming for Meadow to stop, on the ground you holding kai sobbing your eyes out you were scared for the first time in a long time you showed your fear not caring if you were weak, you didn't know what happened next all you saw was Meadow laying dead on the ground ally swarmed by police and an ambulance coming over to you and kai.
"Please get him to the hospital" you cried out the ambulance taking kai in the back of the vehicle, you stayed by his side panicking, you didn't Say anything on the ride to the hospital your eyes fixed on kai as the paramedics checked him over.
It all was happening too fast till it felt like it went on for years in the hospital, kai was in surgery you sat in the waiting room your leg bounced in anticipation waiting on the doctor giving you an update you had called winter telling her what happened even though she knew but giving her an update whenever you got one.
"Y/n y/l/n" a doctor said coming towards you, "how is he doctor will he be okay?" you asked standing up, "he'll be fine he'll need walking sticks for a while he's lucky he could have not been able to walk with that leg again" the doctor said "can i see him?" You asked the doctor sighed "not right now he's in rest once he wakes up and we do a few more checks on him then yes you can see him" you thanked the doctor leaving them to go back to what they were doing.
'Come on winter' you thought to yourself your leg bounced in anxiety you wanted to see kai even though you were told he's fine you still couldn't help but think he's not, how could you not a few hours ago he was shot in the leg.
The doors burst open revealing winter in panic, "y/n how is he is he okay" she asked frantically you placed your hands on her shoulders in attempt to calm winter down but it didn't help, "he's fine he'll need to use a walking stick for a while his leg will be in a cast he's lucky" you reported "I'll kill him with these bright ideas what was he playing at y/n what if she missed and killed him" winter broke down crying you hugged her letting all her emotions fall.
You were crying too, "I know win I wish he wasn't like this but the bittersweet part of it is that he's fine we can see him soon they want to do more checks on him once he's awake" you sighed wiping winters tears away, "you know y/n your like the sister I never had kai's really lucky to have you, you bring out the old him even for a second but I see it in his eyes when your around it's like I have my brother back" she smiled sadly.
"Maybe I just wish he was fully like the old kai but maybe one day if he isn't dead or in prison" you sobbed wiping your tears now, your head was going 100 miles an hour you felt dizzy needing to sit down.
"Hey we'll be okay hopefully there's no more crazy plan's he's nearly got what he wants" winter said as you looked blankly at the wall, with glassy eyes, "I don't think so winter" you sighed.

Bound by Law (Matt Murdock x reader)
Words: 2392 (chapter 10)
Summary:
You and Matt met in the courtroom. Now, you may think that Matt was a knight in shining armour and defended you in the name of all United States laws, but that was not the case. Matt was totally destroying your client, and you wanted to tear him into pieces right then and right there, because with Murdock as your rival, your head is on the firm's plate with each case.
Did Matt care? No, he only cared about bringing justice, he was a human-machine, driven by the need to bring righteousness no matter the cost. Or was he just that?
What happens when you get involved in Fisk's business and Daredevil's lies against your will?

10. Innocent Get What They Deserve
"Mr Smith, how long have you been the principal of the Trinity School?" You ask, confidently walking up to the bald man sitting next to the judge in the witness stand.
"Twelve years now." He answers with a blank face.
"Twelve years!" You pretend to be surprised. "Twelve years and still no progress? No rebuilding the school that's older than me like three times? No? What were you doing those twelve years exactly, Mr Smith?"
"I was leading the school, Miss y/l/n." He answers in a bitter tone, hurt that you pointed out all his flaws in a simple sentence.
"Leading to what? Definitely not better grades because I've noticed a trend in the last five years, to be more specific, your students were getting more and more bad grades, more children failing each semester, but yet you're so proudly speaking to the local magazine about the achievements in sports." You tilt your head to the side, stealing a glance at Marci, who was probably ready to object anytime.
"For your information, I'm not the one teaching those kids or learning the material. It's up to them to understand the subject."
"Yes, I am." He squeezes with great struggle.
"But it's up to you, to hire competent, young teachers who would light up the knowledge sparkle in them. In those twelve years, you managed to hire only P.E teacher. And we can see that it helped," you say loudly, turning to the jury, and all the people to came to listen to the so called 'epic case', and the cameraman who stood in the back of the courtroom, "sport achievements went up almost twice, even a new team was put together... Yet, a terrible accident happened."
Smith remains silent, almost pleading for Marci's help. But he's not getting any. Not on your interrogation. "Are you following my train of thoughts, Mr Smith?" You ask in a silky tone, smiling a bit.
"So, you've noticed that, right?"
"Noticed what?" He asks, pretending to play the role of a victim.
"That the changes in personnel did change some things for the better?"
"Yes. I did."
"So why didn't you hire anyone else? All those years, no other teacher has been replaced."
"I-" Smith begins but gets soon cut off.
"Objection, your Honour, this is not related to the case." Marci stands up, too elegantly for such statement.
"We're getting there, Miss Stahl." You smile at her, blinking a couple of times more than necessary, because the corner of your lashes got stuck together.
"Overruled, continue Miss y/l/n." Judge nods at you kindly.
"Mr Smith?"
"I... Don't know." He mutters under his breath.
"Sorry, could you speak up? They have to get good sound for the video." You smile again, but the smile never reaches your eyes. Just another workout for your facial muscles.
"I don't have an explanation for this." He says louder, and Marci runs a hand through her perfectly blown hair. Everyone wanted to look good for the camera.
"Then I'll ask something else. Why didn't you think of changing the sports equipment? Kids use those everyday, and they wear out faster, was it so difficult to request for money from the government?"
"It's not exactly easy when alien attack occurs almost at your doorstep." Smith squirms in the chair.
"Hells Kitchen received the least damages when compared to New York, which was attacked directly. If anything major happened here, I'm sure Mr Stark would've made sure to get rid of those problems as soon as possible. Besides, Union Allied opened their firm in hopes to fix any inconvenience." You were getting tired of this man already. "If you weren't so greedy, Mr Smith, I'm sure Jeremy wouldn't be sitting here today with a shattered knee and a broken arm, written out of hospital for three hours only."
"I find this offensive Miss y/l/n." Smith gets defensive yet again.
"Where did you put the money that are yearly given to the school? I've visited it yesterday, and to be honest, didn't see a lot of changes or new equipment. Unless you're hiding it somewhere."
Marci stands up to object again, and judge waves her off yet again.
"I'm not hiding anything."
"Why aren't you renovating the school, then? Why then things like this happen to ordinary children like Jeremy, who would've had a bright future ahead of him? Do you feel at least a bit guilty about the accident? Did you visit Jeremy at the hospital, Mr Smith?"
"Of course I did." He smiles confused as if you told the biggest nonsense.
"May I remind that you swore on the Bible to tell the truth?" You stare at him, knowing that any moment you might break his shell of lies.
"I remember that." He says cockily.
"According to Mrs Williams, who has been in hospital with her son every moment, you didn't even call to at least apologize, let alone come to visit. Is it true, Mr Smith?"
Marci starts surfing through the papers, avoiding Smith's eyes at any cost.
"Yes." He sighs, lowering his head. Murmuring starts in the court, and the judge looks around. 
"See, how much does he really care about his students. Apparently not enough to visit, or let alone call an ambulance for that matter." You say loudly, turning to look at the gathered people, and notice a couple of boys, around the same age as Jeremy. Probably his friends. Jeremy sits with a hard look on his face, his mother looks at you with a soft expression, and nods slightly.
"I wasn't present when the accident happened."
"I believe there are plenty of witnesses who could say otherwise. Why didn't you call the ambulance when you heard Jeremy screaming?" You stop in front of him, crossing your arms and tilting your head to the right.
Seeing that there's no point in lying again, he takes a deep breath, "I... was shocked. A few kids ran towards me and the PE teacher, he called the ambulance, I was just too stunned to speak or do anything."
You nod, "that's all I needed to know, thank you, Mr Smith, thank you, your Honour." You sit back, fixing your jacket. Marci asks to question Jeremy, and while he's swearing on the Bible, your thoughts wander to Matt, thinking how is he doing so far. When you entered the court, you saw a familiar head of long hair that belonged to Foggy, and a blonde girl by his side. Matt was currently listening to Foggy presenting the arguments of the closing statement. They were positive that jury will declare Karen as innocent. For the past five minutes, he's been tuning you in from time to time, listening to your questioning. It was a pity that he couldn't hear your heartbeat, or that principal's for that matter, because the courtrooms were too far from each other. But he was able to feel some anxiety floating around the building. Foggy told him that your case will be shown on television, but he recalled how you didn't like that idea at all.
"Mr Williams... May I call you by your name?" Marci asks, leaving her table and the principal sitting alone. 
"Yes." Jeremy says, uncomfortably squirming in the wheelchair.
"Jeremy, can you tell us how exactly you got injured?"
"I was training for the upcoming gymnastics event. It's supposed to happen next week in New York. As usual, I was training on the parallel bars, doing tricks. And the bars were raised pretty high, I attempted to do my trick move, it's when I swing myself hard enough for me to jump in the air high enough, and then I do a flip in the air, and then I grip the bars to support myself and land softly on the ground." Jeremy stops, clearly feeling uncomfortable.
"What happened then?" Marci asks again.
"I did the flip... But when I grabbed a bar for support, it broke in half, and I fell hard on the concrete, right on my knee." 
You remember how he told you that at the hospital, and how angry he got at everyone, including himself, for being careless.
"Why wasn't there a mat underneath the bars?" Marci questions, briefly glancing at her notes.
"Because they were hanging Halloween decorations in the school and took them all from the gym."
"Isn't that a bit early for Halloween?" Marci asks, turning to look at Smith.
"We always do that two weeks before it actually happens." Jeremy answers instead.
"Who reached you first after you fell?"
"My friends. They were also training for the tournament, then Mr Smith came in, but he just stood there looking at me."
"He didn't visit you in the hospital?"
"No."
"What about other teachers?"
"Mr Nowak came the next day."
"The PE teacher?"
"Yes."
"Jeremy... Did you know that the equipment in the gym was very old?"
"Everyone knows that." Jeremy rolls his eyes slightly.
"And you were still using it?"
"We have nowhere else to train."
Matt slumps in his chair, remaining here during the 'decision break'. Foggy left to get coffee, Karen, almost controlling her tears, excused herself to the bathroom, followed by a police officer. He's been listening to Jeremy's questioning now, feeling sorry for the boy and everyone from Trinity School, who had to train under these conditions. He felt lucky that he still had access to Fogwell's gym, because truth to be told, there was no other place to train in Hell's Kitchen. Foggy returns, tapping Matt's shoulder.
"Just asked Steve at the door, they are still going." Foggy says, taking a sip of the coffee and grimacing. "Coffee's shit, by the way." 
"Nothing new." Matt sighs. He knew that Foggy felt conflicted and torn between his old heartache Marci and his new friend - you. Although they both knew that school had to pay for what happened, and love or not, Marci wasn't on the right side of the story this time. 
"Do you think she's going to win?"
"Who exactly you have in mind?" Matt furrows his eyebrows, tuning the sound of Marci's heels out.
"Y/n."
"Probably."
"Do you think we're going to win?" Foggy questions, feeling his previous confidence dissolve after the closing argument.
"Probably." Matt says, bearing no good mood today, especially after Karen got attacked last night and then she slept in his apartment. And he got almost beat up again.  Matt knew that Karen found him attractive, but this time, probably for the first time in forever, he didn't use that for his own good, didn't try to return the feelings or do anything else that Foggy might call stupid. Why? He wasn't sure. Maybe because he was struggling to even exist and return to normal, or maybe there was another reason for his lack of actions.
And that reason was now giving her closing argument just a huge corridor away.
"We return after the break, when jury is ready to give their decision. 30 minutes." Judge announces and you excuse yourself from Jeremy and his mother, leaving the courtroom for a smoke. 
"Yes. You know what to do." Fisk says, looking out the window.
***
"She's good." Wesley dares to say something when Fisk turns off the TV, not waiting to learn the outcome of the case. He wasn't interested in the least in it.
"Of course."
"When the time comes, I want to meet her."
"Of course, sir." Wesley says with no emotion evident on his face, although he couldn't lie to himself, he was following your every movement since the moment they began livestreaming the session. In the courtroom you looked as confident as fish in the water. Long suit pants, probably wearing high heels, a beige blouse with small lace trim, half hidden by a black jacket with two rows of big buttons. Hair, put in a tight bun, natural makeup and light red lipstick, James couldn't deny the fact that you were a very attractive woman, and if it wasn't for his job, he would've found you earlier.
"How's the deal going?" Fisk rasps out, turning back to look at Wesley, who's been staring at the black screen, clearly lost in thought.
"We've made some progress."
"Clearly it wasn't enough."
Wesley looks down at his phone, receiving the news on a failed gun delivery. "I'll fix it as soon as possible." He feels guilty. But it's not his fault that Russians are so stupid and tough to deal with.
"I expect nothing else." Fisk turns back to look through the window, a sign to leave him alone.
"Hey there, star of the day!"
***
Foggy catches you in the street, waving for a taxi. You didn't like driving before cases by yourself.
"Oh, Foggy, hi." You put your hand down, turning towards Foggy, who's not alone this time. "Mr Murdock, long time no see." You say on purpose, waiting for Foggy's reaction. And all too well, you receive none.
"Yeah, I might say the same." Matt says with a sly smile and it takes a moment for you to catch up on his blind joke turned against you.
"School has not only to give the compensation, but also pay for his treatment and buy new equipment for the gym."
"Matt, c'mon, she got flustered." Foggy nudges Matt's arm, and you clear your throat uncomfortably. "How's your case?"
You smile and raise your eyebrows, Foggy quickly catches up on your sign, smiling as well.
"That's great news, congratulations." Matt says professionally, and gives you his hand to shake.
You take it, firmly, knowing that a good handshake is the best way to get man's attention. "How's yours?" You don't let go yet, Matt does the same.
"Innocent as she is and should be."
"Great news." You let go, feeling how weirdly Foggy looked at the two of you. Yet you notice something else, a bruise on Matt's eyebrow. Is this man doing karate exercises at home with his stick or something?
"Celebratory drinks?" Foggy gets excited, glad to catch his both friends in the place at the same time.
"Foggy, it's 2 PM." Matt scolds his friend like a mom.
"So? Somewhere in the world it's 8, and the party is just getting started. C'mon, let's catch a ride to Josie's. Hey wait, did you like Josie's, y/n?" Foggy says, waving his hand for taxis.
"Uh, yeah, it was nice." You lie. Josie's was a rat's ass but served good drinks. That kind of repays the view, but most of the customers only need to see a full glass in front of them.
"To Josie's!" Foggy shouts dramatically and gets in the front seat of the taxi, making you and Matt sit on the backseat together. Noticing how the driver checked you out in the rear-view mirror, Matt squeezes his fist tightly.

The Long Goodbye
I’ve also got this on AO3 and Wattpad uhhh I don’t use tumblr often I don’t think I’ve ever written anything on here since I made the account? If you wanna teach me anything that’d be nice…
Character deaths warning this is Dazai you’re reading about + Beast Light Novel spoilers.
"Osamu, why do you always seem like you're going somewhere?" You murmured to the man laying on your chest.
"Belladonna," His laugh vibrated against you warming the heart he pressed his ear against. "I'm not going anywhere." 
"I know you Dazai, maybe you're not going anywhere but you're planning something." You frowned raising an eyebrow at him, "And you know how much I hate that nickname cut it out." 
A calloused hand slipped from under you, Dazai slide his body above yours before resting his hand on your cheek. Dipping his head and gently kissing the curve of your neck softly. A contrast to the rough hand grazing over your burning ears. 
"Love, forgive me..sometimes I feel as though you'll be the death of me." Dazai cold breath brought chills amongst your spine. "Even outsmarting me in my own game, you know I love it when you call me my name." 
"Osamu." 
"That's better." Before resting his weight against you once more. A comfortable silence trickled in, staring at the ceiling you slipped your hands in his hair massaging his scalp as he controlled his breathing. 
"What are you planning?" 
Dazai grinned up at you. "Well right now I'm planning to cuddle with you for an hour or so then maybe seduce—"
You sat up bending his body uncomfortably above you, he rolled off to an empty side of the bed. 
"Seriously Dazai, I'm trying to have a conversation with you." You furrowed your eyebrows at the steel case beside you, he made you curious. He sighed through his nose and faced the ceiling. 
"Like I said earlier, I'm not going anywhere or planning anything. Can we go back to what we were doing?" 
He was changing the subject, but this had been something you wanted to discuss for awhile now. 
"Dazai, why have I never been to your job? Actually, why won't you let me?"
"I never want to see you there." He still wouldn't look at you. 
"Where do you work?" 
He didn't respond. You pressed your lips together as you stared at him. You wanted him to tell you the truth, you gave him chances, hints, nudges. Now you were pushing. 
"The Port Mafia, (Y/n) I work at the Port Mafia." You said for him. He stilled turning to look at you with wide eyes. 
"What...what did you just say?" 
"Did you expect me to never see a wanted poster with your name on it? Or see the news? Are your bandages on too tight?" Sarcasm poured from you, you didn't want to be cross with him, but if you want to hide something don't do a piss poor job at it. 
Dazai pushed off the bed. He felt around for his deep brown rich coat and shoes. 
"What are you doing?" You stood following him.
"I have to go."
"We're not done talking."
"I'm done...I'm done talking." 
"You're kidding." You breathed out as he approached the door. 
"You face countless threats everyday risking your life, but you're a coward when it comes to me?" 
His back faced you as he held the doorknob with an internal struggle. He shut his eyes seeing something he never wanted to see again. 
"Yes (Y/n), goodnight."
He slipped away leaving only a quiet click of the door. Presenting him with what you knew meant Dazai had more plans to arrange. He only hoped you wouldn't be there when the time came. 
You hadn't heard from him in days and it was getting on your nerves. You only wanted to talk, to understand, to calm your nerves. There'd been more fights breaking out within Yokohama since your last conversation. 
You didn't even know if he was alive. 
You were bristling as you stood in front of the large building. You really meant to calm your nerves but you just weren't able to brush aside your curiosities. 
Suited up men and women stood outside the building as you walked toward the doors. One of them to your surprise held the door open for you. 
"Thank you."
"Enjoy your trip Mrs. Dazai."
The door shut behind you as heat rushed to your face. 
"Mrs?" You mused as your brain finished. You continued to the receptionists desk as the image of that fool pranced around your mind. A small grin rested on your face seeing him jump around room to room, person to person with your picture. 
'Look at my wife!' 
Asking for your 'husband' you made your way to his office. During the elevator ride up you thought about what it would be like to actually marry the man. Your days always filled with adventure. 
The doors opened to a long empty corridor. You heard only the sound of your shoes and the fabric on your thighs rubbing together. 
You stared out at the beautiful day taking in how warm and sunny it was. Maybe you'd bully him into taking you on a date. 
Dazai always had a reason for his actions, maybe you pushed too far. You couldn't wait to see his face to say you loved him and you were sorry. Sliding your hands in your pockets a smile spread across your face and your heart sung. 
But then you saw him.
"Osa...Osa!"
You tried to breathe, make your voice stronger. 
You weren't sure where your mind went as the scream built in your throat. At first you hadn't realized...but then his bandage unraveled and his deep brown eyes met yours for a moment a second and you could've sworn you felt your heart burst as he fell. A tucked away thought that you'd always feared finally came true. 
You wrote for days. 
Blueprints. Drafts. Editing. More drafts. Copies. Then finalized your work onto a page. 
When you awoke in your new world you were certain your days of hurt would be over. All you had to do was find him. So you searched and stumbled upon a coffee shop. 
You slipped above the stairs without alerting anyone. 
Your heart responded to familiar laughter, it made you walk faster brushing past someone.
"Hey!" A distraction you ignored and pushed forward throwing open doors.
"You're not suppose to be in here—" You could faintly feel their hand try to grab you by the arm. 
"What the hell? Hey!"
You finally threw open the door he stood behind. A room in disarray, paperwork fluttering around him and his tan coat as the sunset in the distance. Although you were facing his back you could tell he was grinning at the chaos around him. 
Seeing him again wedged your heart in your throat. Your voice once again faltered, his name fell from your lips as a whisper. It felt like too long since you'd last saw him, nearly moments ago you were cooped up in your room writing to see him again. 
Momentary bliss was destroyed when arms scooped you up pulling you into a frenzy. 
"I've been calling for you throughout the hallway! You can't be up here." Blonde hair floated into your vision as you struggled against him thrusting your body forward and hanging onto the door frame. 
"Dazai you suicidal bastard when I get my hands on you—"
Osamu's head snapped toward the sound of your voice, the smile he dawned earlier slipping as he recognized you. He'd barely been able to piece together your name in his brain as distant memories of your lives together haunted him. 
You reached for the wooden beam above the doorframe hoisting your body for your legs momentum and throwing them back to land into Kunikida's gut. Weakening his grip you slipped from his arms releasing the beam and stormed up to the glowing man before you. 
Without wasting time you pulled his body close grabbing him by his collar. The tan coat felt different on his body compared to his darker attire. 
And his eyes. God, his eyes. You'd never seen both before one had always been enough. But being here seeing light simmering in his deep brown eyes unravelled something in you. You were happy to see him, it finally brought you peace, yet you were also pissed beyond words you couldn't find. 
While you sat in your home writing you hadn't prepared what you'd say to him. You hadn't even thought about the raw emotions you'd have spilling out, the tears you failed to fight. 
Seeing you like this broke him, he hadn't planned to find you again 
"You said you weren't going anywhere, you swore! You never lie Dazai at least not to me! Why? Why? Why?!"
Dazai had loved you many times, but he wasn't sure how he messed up so badly. Well he did, he just refused to believe it. This wasn't his first time writing in the book, but this was his first time seeing your heartbreak. In every timeline he'd created for you he never lived long enough to see the aftermath. He'd never even gotten to the level of being with you, thinking staying afar would be safer, smarter.
Although he countlessly told himself this he always got closer, intertwining himself in your life. Despite his ability Osamu was still human, and humans made mistakes. He couldn't help it, he desperately missed you in his world. He hadn't held you in years, kissed you, heard you, all he'd been able to do was place flowers on your grave.
Only hearing his own voice, holding himself, missing your touch. 
Osamu had met you years before his mafia life. You'd survived in the slums together by outsmarting and stealing from on goers. Today you managed to pickpocket the wrong one. 
"I don't feel too fondly about little pests as yourselves touching me. Unless of course it were my dear Elise." He spoke calmly without a care in the world as he brought a foot down hard onto your abdomen. Your body salivated from the pain allowing you to cough up only that. He dug his heel into you as he grabbed Dazai by the throat. 
"Now which one of you insects has it?" 
You squirmed under the weight as Dazai observed keeping his one eyed gaze hard. 
"Well boy?" Mori tore his eyes from Dazai to you as you writhed beneath him. 
"Doesn't seem like your friend can take much more—" Mori looked back only to quickly release the dangling boy. He narrowly missed a golden metallic butterfly. Quick on his feet Dazai swooped low kicking the man off you. You scrambled toward him both of you bolting out the bright lit alleyway.
You huffed and puffed as you leant over, your lungs and body screaming for air. 
"Let's stay away from that area for awhile." Dazai murmured just as out of breath as you were. 
"You don't have to tell me twice..who even was that guy? I mean who strangles kids!?" Despite being in the wrong yourself he could've defended himself some other way. There's no need to go murdering children. 
"You ignored me only to not know who we were stealing from?" Dazai was as pissed as a fifteen year old could be. 
"I didn't hear you! He looked like an easy mark!" 
"(Y/n), you're the easy mark! His wanted posters are literally everywhere he's from the Port!" 
You ignored the remark he made given your mistake it was justified. 
"Then why didn't you let me take him on? The mafia sucks and you know how my ability works I could've won easy." 
Dazai opened and closed his mouth completely clamping his mouth shut at his reasoning being ridiculous. He couldn't even lie, not to you, never. 
"Because."
"Becauseee?" You annoyingly nudged at his feet. Dazai turned away from you leaving his bandaged side to your sight. 
"Osamu? Because what?" 
This was the truth even if it was partial. 
"Because...dumb old guys focus more on hurting you than me, so it leaves a clear opening to land a hit."
You stared at him void of any emotion.
"What?" He still refused to look at you, but he felt your stare.
"That didn't answer my question." 
Startled he looked at you with red flush on his face and brown eyes bubbling with panic. A funny contrast compared to his usual teasing and stoic personality. 
"I'm suppose to— I—you!" Dazai placed his hands on his face and let out a muffled scream. 
"Do you know what the Mafia is?" Dazai drug his hands across his face as you gave an answer. In his eyes you saw that something wasn't right. 
Barely a second later Dazai had shot toward you crashing your bodies together onto the dirt. As your head hit the ground a giant syringe stuck into the spot Dazai had been. 
"If you're curious, I could show you the definition." You looked in horror as the man you robbed earlier approached you. 
Osamu held you close with a scowl on his face dissipating his earlier fluttering emotions. 
"Join me and maybe I'll spare you the punishment of trying to embarrass me."
A rumbling filled the heated room from the bees residing in it. You opened a window to clear the suffocating feeling. You didn't know how Dazai wore that dark long trench coat when you work together. He should've been hot enough with the bandages on. 
Pulling away from the window you decided to check on your colony's productivity. Lazily stepping toward an angry bee covered corpse you dug into his mouth to retrieve a blood filled honeycomb. Your signature. Your eyes lingered over your work that you'd brutally honed for three years. Crystals gleamed within each hexagonal shape indicating the sweetness. 
Your sights peered over to Dazai who'd been using the torture method on the aspiring new port mafia's boss. In other words a fake using the actual Port's name in vain. Dazai had still been punching the man and you wondered if he'd ever be done. 
"I'm bored Osamu." 
His dark brown eyes met yours a deep void that barely clung to light. 
"Then come over here and finish him off." 
He pulled away as you approached him shaking off the blood on his fist and wiping the rest on his coat. Rolling your eyes you yanked open the boss' mouth and placed the honeycomb made from his deceased partner and placed it. You patted the gang members head to hush him. 
"Be a good boy and don't spit it out. The bees will follow wherever the comb is."
The boss teared up, maybe from pain, maybe from remorse, or from enjoying the sweet treat you left. You didn't really care. The job was done. 
"Don't take us sparing you as a change of heart, we just need you alive for the papers, m'kay sport?"
He had the nerve to cry. 
The both of you turned away, Dazai slipped an arm around your waist as you left the building. 
"Fucking Port Mafia wannabe." 
The walk most of the way back was long..for Dazai at least. 
"Dammit Chuuya's right you are a waste of bandages!" 
Dazai avoided looking at you, which was easy for him. 
"I didn't do anything wrong!" He whined denying your complaints. 
"Nothing wrong? You dropped me!" You pushed the lanky eighteen year old onto the grass. You hadn't expected him to pull you down with him. You shrieked as you tumbled down the hill with him. Your limbs intermingled with Dazai's as well as your laughter. 
"I don't scream like that!" You snickered. 
Dazai mimicked you once more sending both of you into fits of laughter. 
"Stop!" You laughed harder to the point were it hurt to even breathe. 
"It's exactly how you sound!" Tears flooded Dazai's eyes as he held his stomach. It hurt from the laughter so did his heart as he watched you. 
Hair a mess, clothes tussled and blood stained from earliers fight. His heart caught in his throat from how beautiful he found you in the nightlight. He sat up fast feeling dizzy. 
You continued to laugh until you realized you'd been laughing alone. You breathed out, "Osamu?" 
He'd sat up and looked toward the sky. You could barely see his face. Following his lead you also sat up leaning your body against his. 
"Belladonna." He turned toward you leaning closer making your face burn. 
"Is something wrong?" You whispered.
"It's just will you..." Dazai's face shyly lowered to your shoulder, "will you do a double suicide with me?"
Your rising blood pressure rose higher switching from nervousness to anger. You thought he'd been asking you something different. As playfully as you could you shoved him off you.
"No idiot and stop calling me by that stupid flower!" 
He looked at you with puppy eyes.
"So you won't kill yourself with me?" 
"Is there a bandaged squeezing your brain? No!" You stood up even more pissed as you blinked back tears. It frustrates you more that you were upset about this. Every time it felt like he was toying with you. 
"How about I go finish the report and I see you tomorrow Dazai? It's late and I just want to knock this out." 
"Why the formalities (Y/n)? Did I make you upset?" Dazai joined you standing, towering over you with a smirk. You turned away from him fighting hot tears and a tightness in your chest. 
"I'm gonna head back."
You peeled away from him miserably trudging up the grassy hill. Dazai followed behind you hands in his coat pockets. Walking ahead gave you time to cool and brush off negative thoughts. 
"(Y/n)?"
You paused in your steps taking a breath in before turning to him. He stood paces away from you hands now at his sides fidgeting as he balled them up. 
"Is something wrong?" 
A simple question. Simple enough to make the floodgates pour. Enough to have Dazai bolting toward you. 
A few droplets wiped away bloody grim off your face. Dazai's calloused hand held your cheek, his thumb smeared stray tears as he whispered. The street light above you flickered on and the sight of him, the proximity made your chest hurt. 
"Hey, what's wrong?"
You slapped the hand away. 
"You're what's wrong! I don't get you! I just—"
You buried your face in your hands with a sigh. You felt small in this moment, vulnerable. 
"You're so frustrating look I—" You slide your hands off your face. Looking him in the eye you started over. 
"I like you a lot. I don't understand if you like me back because you're always teasing me. Getting my hopes up and then stepping all over them like some game! It's irritating just give me a hint anything!"
He'd clumsily crashed his lips into yours having zero prior experience besides his pillow. He wished Chuuya had taken up his offer on practicing because God was he nervous. You were soft and bittersweet against his lips despite how rigid you were. 
'Fuck, wait.'
Dazai pulled away from you. He shouldn't have done that this wasn't some fairy tale this was real life. Yet when he opened his eyes he saw yours shut tight, face flushed and hands squeezing at your uniform. 
You peeked an eye open with a pout on your face. 
"Why'd you stop?" 
That night something you'd always cherish was the way his eyes shimmered. Pupils blown out wide and a bright light creeping through his eye while he stared at you with a wide grin. 
"You're stiff as a wall."
You'd blush harder if you could. 
"You're awful you know that, Dazai?"
"Osamu." He leaned closer to your face.
"What?" 
"When you're happy, mad, or angry even with me call my name. We've known each other for too long, but it's alright we'll have more than enough time to practice."
You tried his name again, it felt differently with your newfound relationship.
"Osamu."
"Good, now we can practice those kissing skills." 
You knocked him upside the pole.
"See you at the base, while you're up there plan a date for us tomorrow. We're taking the day off."
You weren't going to make it. You knew that even with Dazai blasting his way through members it was obvious. 
Your focus had been occupied with more than enough between taking fire and bringing swarms over the men. Although you were busy your instinct had you peek at Dazai. You were right, it was a shame that he'd always been your weakness. Two members had eyes on him both taking fire as he returned shots. A third member crept behind him. Without a clear shot you leapt out of cover sure you'd gotten everyone. 
"Osamu! Watch out!" You fired two shots into the members skull and they fell.
Dazai turned toward the sudden disturbance as he hid behind his cover. As he ducked away to reload he'd seen you get shot three times in the chest. To his horror he'd seen his targets change their aim to you. In response to this the bees you deployed were further angered planning new hives in the two remaining. 
Dazai rushed over dropping to your body in a heartbeat. Pulling off his jacket he pressed it onto you to stop the bleeding wound. The fabric didn't help. You were choking. Gargling up words as you bled out. 
"(Y/n)..no hey..look at me, look at me."
You saw the panic in his eyes, but remained calm. Everything was fine, he was safe. 
Blood filled your mouth and pooled out of it as you struggled to speak. You reached for his face cupping the bandages instead of flesh. 
"O...s...a? Os...am....u?" Your body seized still from the pain grabbing a hold of the bandages and pulled. If your heart hadn't been broken already the organ broke at the sight of both his eyes. As you saw yourself dying you watched that light you loved fade alongside you. Tears rushed to your eyes as Dazai turned to a creak at the door. 
A file of members barged in. You could see Dazai scream as he fired at them. Despite how close he was you could no longer hear his screaming nor the ricochet of the guns. 
But you could feel his tears on your body as he fought for you as you quickly drifted to a permanent slumber. 
Soon after Dazai quit the mafia. There was no longer any point to continue protecting you. 
He'd already failed.
Years passed. 
He'd turned 19. 
                Then 20,
                    Then 21,
                         Than 22 without you. 
And every year he found himself feeling eighteen again for four years. Cold and alone missing you. 
Until he found it. The very thing Fyodor had destroyed the world with. 
The Book. 
He shaped and molded worlds for you to live in. Worlds where he could see you happy. A world where he could see you safe. Never again hungry scraping up dirt in the slums. He could never put you through that again. Dazai originally wrote to see you from a distance and then he left. 
The first time he'd done so he came back to this world without you again feeling empty. He picked up a pen again to see you then disappeared. 
But then he bumped into you, his mistake really he shouldn't have gotten too close. Months of seeing you from afar had him craving for more, but touching you gave him butterflies. A sudden thrill he'd missed for years—he caught himself before the rollercoaster of emotions went any further and once again disappeared. 
Now? 
Being away from you for so long made him restless. 
So he created a world where he could fall in love with you all over again. Every world he'd made he'd kept everything that built your personality, especially you're cleverness. The very thing that led you worlds to his, something he hadn't even planned. 
The only two aware of it should still be in that book. 
Akutagawa and Atsushi. 
So how?
"Osamu!" You pulled him worlds away back to his own and he breathed. 
"You have nothing to say? Since you're so quiet I'll say what I've got on my mind bastard." 
You opened your mouth to yell at him, but he'd shut you up with a kiss. 
And he was eighteen with you again. Having his first kiss under a dim flickering streetlight, stealing bread from bakeries, taking out targets, going on dates. He was forever eighteen every time he kissed you. 
But this time was special because he was eighteen and his life finally moved forward. 
Bonus: Kunikida grumbling as he picks up and reorganizes the papers surrounding the two of you. 
Extra bonus: You're absolutely terrified of Atsushi he's literally known in your world for being a murderer?? Since he's a cat and cats are scared of water you throw a lot of water on him the first day, and then adopt him.

Tumblr media
January 25th.
This day held special meaning to a particular group of people. After all, it is the birthday of one of their beloved co-workers...
Lumie Miratisa.
A young woman with hair the same color as a clear, sunny sky and eyes as pink as rose quartz. Other than being an actress working for LOH, she was also a well-known professional figure skater taking part in competitive figure skating. And despite taking a break from her professional career, she still uses her skills to teach younger kids ice skating as a side job.
Ever since January started, [Y/n] was racking her brains on how to celebrate Lumie's birthday. She wanted the woman to enjoy the day as much as possible and even let her co-workers accompany her on such a precious day. The [h/e]ette deeply admired Lumie, and that goes to show when she decided to plan something big to celebrate her birthday this year.
"This year's winter is still cold as ever..."
A particular female blew air into her gloved hands, before rubbing them together. Her [e/c] eyes darted around the bustling streets, witnessing the crowd maneuver their way toward their desired destinations. Tiny white snowflakes cascaded down from the clouded skies, the chilly wind passed through ever so often, and the afternoon sun slowly descended from the horizon.
Once more, [Y/n] surveyed the area. She sat patiently by a vacant bench in the city plaza towered by establishments all around when all of a sudden, she felt a vibration in her pocket. She immediately fished out her phone and checked the caller ID — Dietrich.
She then answered the call. "Big brother, where are you guys now?"
"Ah, we're by the far end of the mall. Just on the east side."
"What? It's already been half an hour; we're gonna be late at this point," she scrunched her brows, groaning. "Have you guys even bought a present yet?"
"We already did," came her older sister's voice from the other line. "We're just waiting for them to finish wrapping then we'll head out right away."
"Ugh, fine. Just please hurry up," [Y/n] sighed. "You guys are supposed to be at the ice rink by now and instructing the staff in decorating the place. It's nearly 5:00 and Lumie's gonna be here soon."
"Yes, yes. We heard you — don't worry."
With a final farewell, the call ended. [Y/n] stared at her phone screen, her [e/c] eyes twitched in annoyance as the digital clock displayed went by a minute. Sighing, she pocketed the device and waited.
"I guess I have to stall Lumie once she gets here... I just hope that my older siblings will finish the preparations during that time. I can't believe that they forgot to buy a present. Jeez..."
The next minutes were spent in anticipation. As the clock kept counting every second, [Y/n] began to think about the gifts that her older siblings could've bought. Her mind drifted off as her thoughts started to wander. And after what seemed like ages, the sound of footsteps could be heard getting nearer. Soon enough, a familiar girl dressed in casual winter clothing appeared at the corner of the pathway and made her way toward the bench that [Y/n] occupied.
"Ah, you're here!" she smiled at her friend when she reached the bench.
"[Y/n]! You didn't wait long, did you?" Lumie greeted her with a warm smile on her face.
The [h/e]ette waved in return, before getting up from her seat. "No worries, I didn't. And hello, Nine, Laphlaes."
"Good afternoon, [Y/n]," Laphlaes gave a gentle close-eyed smile.
Nine waved in reply. "Hey."
Briefly taking out her phone to check the time, the young woman then pursed her lips before facing the trio. "How about we explore the mall first?"
At that suggestion, Nine's magenta orbs lit up. He then faced the redhead. "Dad! Can we go have desserts?"
"Sure, dear," the older man chuckled, seeing his adopted son bounce excitedly.
"Okay, then. Let's go."
Tumblr media
Once entering the mall, [Y/n] immediately messaged her older siblings about Lumie's arrival in the plaza and reminded — pleading — them to hurry up with the preparation since she can only stall the birthday girl for so long. The mall's warm air engulfed their bodies, inhaling its iconic scent as they weave along the crowd. Nine's eyes sparkled as he admired the various shops lining up inside. 
As per the ravenette's request, they headed straight to the sweets department and began browsing around the displays. [Y/n] gazed at the shelves full of delicious chocolate bars, lollipops, popcorn balls, candies, and pastries, while listening to the soft music playing from somewhere nearby. In a moment, her phone buzzed. Opening her device, she saw a message from her older brother.
Dietrich You're with Lumie now, right? Just keep her busy for about an hour. We're almost done with the preparations and the others are already here. I'll text you again later.
Her face softened, huffing in satisfaction. [Y/n] felt that she haven't had a chance to spend much time together with Lumie recently, which made her want to make sure that everything would go smoothly this time. And not only that, she really wanted to celebrate Lumie's birthday in a unique way. She figured that she should make good use of this opportunity to treat them all to a good night out, as well as to celebrate this special occasion. So, why not have some fun now?
As she returned her phone, a certain bluenette glided toward the younger girl. [E/c] hues met with sherbet ones.
"Hey, [N/n]!" Lumie greeted with her usual bright smile.
"Hey," she smiled back. "I'm glad that you accepted my invitation. I didn't get the chance to ask but how was your day earlier?"
"Oh, it's no problem! It's you who invited me, after all. And my day went fine. I was just teaching ice skating to my students as usual."
The younger girl nodded in understanding. "I see. How long are your sessions?"
"I have three sessions today. I have my 8-9 AM teaching kids who are below 10 years old. After that, I have my 11-12 sessions with teenagers. Then 2-3 PM to teach another batch of young children," Lumie explained, reminiscing about the wonderful time she had with her students. "It's pretty fulfilling. They really love me!"
[Y/n] giggled softly. "That sounds great. What do you usually teach?"
"Well, if they're under 10, I teach the basics like balance drills. For teenagers who have experience, I usually teach them advanced moves."
"Mhm. I see. What is your usual schedule?" [Y/n] inquired.
"My hours of teaching change frequently, from two days a week to three or four times a month. My schedule is flexible since this is just my side job. Besides, I have to make time for LOH and other things as well."
"Yeah, you're right," the younger girl chuckled. "Are there many kids in your class that are struggling with ice skating? There aren't any who stopped, are there?"
"Well, everyone does their best, especially the older ones. Though, sadly, a few of my students dropped the lesson. Some said that wasn't what they want while others said that the lesson per session is expensive," Lumie said as she clasped her hands together, her rose-colored eyes containing brief sadness. "I understand their concerns, it's just heartbreaking since I enjoyed our time together."
"Cheer up, Lumie," the younger girl said, sending a sympathetic smile. "I'm sure that those kids will remember you as their former teacher. The moment you spend with them won't be in vain."
Glancing at the [h/c]ette girl and seeing her gentle expression made Lumie's heart melt. She, too, sported a smile. "You're right. I guess I am being a little silly."
As they wrapped up their conversation, Laphlaes and Nine approached the two girls. Judging from the paper bag that the ravenette boy had in his arms, [Y/n] had assumed he just finished his candy shopping. Smiling at them, the four of them exited the store and proceeded to roam around the mall more.
Tumblr media
"We're almost there... Ah, careful, Nine! Lumie might trip!"
"I'm holding her properly!"
"Don't fight you two," a certain male chuckled.
After an hour of just roaming around the mall, Dietrich messaged his little sister that everything was done and that they can bring Lumie to the ice rink right away. As soon as she received that message, [Y/n] led the three of them to the ice rink. Of course, since it's a surprise, Lumie had to be blindfolded all the way there. And now they were by the entrance of the ice rink, [Y/n] and Nine assisting and guiding the blindfolded birthday girl up the stairs and into the premise.
A small smile emerged on the blue-haired woman's face. Soon enough, the two teens whose arms she was holding stopped, making her halt in her tracks as well. Nine and [Y/n] moved away, making Lumie remove her hands from them. Soon, she felt a presence behind her. And after a moment, the blindfold was removed from her eyes.
As Lumie opened her lids...
"Surprise!"
Party poppers exploded, confetti filling up her vision. Everyone present cheered for her — some of them were holding the party poppers, some were clapping, and others were giving her a smile. As Lumie took in her surroundings, a smile formed on her face once again.
All that was visible in her peripheral vision were dark walls, decorated with balloons and streamers. On one side stood tables filled with different kinds of snacks, drinks, and desserts. And on the other side of the room sat a large table covered with different-sized boxes, presumably the presents gifted to her. But the most noticeable thing to Lumie was the huge ice rink at the center of the room. She then looked down, noticing that the carpet under her feet was colored a dark blue with a white diamond design. She instantly recognized the place. It is the 'Ace of Diamonds', one of the largest ice-rink in the city.
To be able to rent this whole place for the evening was astounding. Not only does it surely cost a lot, but they were able to receive permission from the manager supervising this large establishment just to celebrate her birthday. Furthermore, even a few of their co-actors were able to spare some time to celebrate her birthday with her and even bought presents along.
Lumie's sherbet pink orbs watered. She placed her fist over her chest, feeling her heartbeat churn in strange happiness. "Thank you so much, everyone."
[Y/n], who was observing her older friend's expression for a while, simpered. All of their friends walked over to Lumie and gathered around her. They said their birthday greetings to her one by one, often engaging in short chit-chat. As this was unfolding, [Y/n] decided to watch from the sidelines. Soon, her gaze landed on a pair of ravenettes off to the far end of the group, looking ever so fatigued.
The girl giggled to herself.
"Well, I guess I gotta give credit where credit's due. My older siblings did great in preparing everything in just a short time."
"Yosh!" clapping her hands together to garner the attention of her friends, a large smile emerges on [Y/n]'s lips, her [e/c] eyes twinkling in excitement. "Now that the birthday girl's here, how about we go celebrate and have fun? After all, we're at the skating rink~"
"Yeah!"
"You're right!"
"Mhm!"
"It'll be fun!"
"I can't wait!"
Tumblr media
It didn't take long for everyone to put on their skating blades and enter the ice rink. And as expected, most of them were grouped together by the sides, hanging on the barrier for support. Some of them were having a lot of fun on the side, playing around, or just talking. Only a few who had experience with ice skating were hogging the vast middle to themselves. 
"Wow, you guys sure know how to enjoy yourselves..."
A satisfied expression washed over [Y/n]'s face upon seeing her friends having fun. She glanced back at her older siblings, seeing that they were busy chatting with each other by the barrier. Deciding to leave them to their own devices, she skated towards where Lumie is, passing by her friends.
Lumie, Laphlaes, and Nine were grouped together by the side. The redhead adult was leaning against the barrier for support, watching as his son was struggling to balance on the skates. As for the blue-haired woman, she was at arm's reach from the boy, ready to assist and guide him along the ice. It didn't take long for a particular [h/c-haired to casually glide over them.
"Heya," [Y/n] grinned, her skates slowing to a stop. Her gaze then landed on the younger boy. "You okay there, Nine?"
"Ngh... I'm... fine..." he huffed.
The boy had both arms out for balance, his knees bent and his upper body almost horizontal. [Y/n] had to control herself from laughing at Nine's ridiculous posture, but the amusement plastered on her face was evident. Laphlaes was watching wordlessly, his expression was nothing else but tender. As for Lumie, she had her signature smile while watching the youngsters interact.
Noticing her staring at him, Nine turned to the teen. Instantly, his face bloomed and he pointed at her accusingly. "S-stop laughing at me!"
"But I wasn't?" the girl rose a playful brow, [e/c] hues glinted with mischief while covering her mouth to hide the grin gracing her lips.
"Grr!" dropping down his arm, Nine pouted with a red face.
Ignoring the girl, he focused back on what he was doing earlier — trying to find his balance on the ice. He wasn't able to move much, and even when he did glide a few inches, his upper body would be dragged. This resulted in him flailing his arms around to regain balance. Thankfully, he didn't fall... Yet. [Y/n] burst into laughter at the sight of Nine, unable to contain herself anymore. The [h/c]ette girl wiped the tears that formed at the corner of her eyes as she attempted to catch her breath.
"Now you're laughing!" he exclaimed, huffing in embarrassment. He glared at the [h/c]-haired female, but his eyes held no animosity in them.
"I-I'm sorry!" [Y/n] managed to wheeze out, feeling her cheeks burn. "Oh my! You just look cute, Nine!"
"Hmph! I'm not cute and I'll show you that I can perfect this," Nine replied, turning around and skating off. "You're just lucky that you got to practice before."
His legs weren't steady yet, resulting in a few falls here and there, but he managed to recover quickly. Laphlaes slowly followed his son, keeping a watchful eye while he also attempt to move without falling. They just moved a few distances away from the two girls.
"He's really so cute~"
Finally, her laughter died down. She face Lumie who was unusually quiet during the whole ordeal. She saw the woman's expression, a hint of joy evident in the slight crinkle on the corner of her eyes. A tint of pink spread across her fair cheeks. A smile crept its way to [Y/n]'s face too as she watched her friend having fun.
"What do you think, Lumie?" the [h/c]ette strike up a conversation, pushing her left foot forward to glide a bit. "About the celebration, I mean."
"It's lovely, [N/n]," Lumie turned her head in [Y/n]'s direction, her sherbet-pink orbs gazing fondly at her. "Especially now that we get to spend more time with each other like this finally. Thank you for celebrating my birthday like this."
Butterflies fluttered in the younger girl's stomach upon hearing those words, and a happy blush decorated her cheeks. "Honestly, for the past week or so, I was thinking of unique ways to celebrate your birthday with everyone else. I wanted to do something special for you and the others and this is what I thought of."
"Hm... Isn't this difficult to pull off, though?" Lumie pondered, resting a finger on her lips. "Despite being later in January, Ace of Diamonds still has tons of regular clients using the rink. Besides, it must be expensive to rent the skating rink."
"Ah, well..." stopping just in front of the bluenette, [Y/n] let out an awkward chuckle, rubbing her temple sheepishly. "I actually had to beg and convince Rouin to help me with it."
Lumie chuckled. "Oh, tell me everything about it~"
"Well, I pinched in the idea during the first week of January. I was extremely nervous since knowing Rouin, he wouldn't usually agree to impractical things like this. Fortunately, my older siblings supported my idea. I spent at least a day racking my brain for ways to convince him. Eventually, he agreed. Though I'm not sure if it's because he was persuaded by my words or that he has no choice but to give in to my demands. Hehe..."
"Fufu~ Considering your tenacity, I wouldn't be surprised. I assume Rouin handled most of it, right?"
[Y/n] let out a sheepish laugh, sweatdropping at the older woman's words. "Yeah. Lucilicca and Laphlaes also helped. They contacted the manager to book the rink in advance. Fortunately, the date was open and we were able to rent it for about five hours in the evening. The cost was way more expensive than I thought but everyone here agreed to contribute a certain amount to pay for it. Then we invited everyone. Though, as you can see, only a few of us are present. But even though the others weren't able to come, they still gave a present. It's stacked over there."
"Mhm. I see," humming softly, Lumie took note of every little detail from the story. She then smiled, skating around [Y/n]. "It's unfortunate that we weren't able to have everyone here, but it's the thought that mattered most. Besides, we ought to enjoy today and make memories so we have something to talk about with everyone else!"
"You're right," [Y/n] giggled, recalling that Lumie loves having someone to talk with.
"Oh! By the way, [N/n]. How many times have you ice skated?"
"Only two times. Both with my family. This is the first time I experienced it with friends, although not everyone is here. Though I hope we get to have everyone present next time."
"I see, I see," the blunette nodded. She placed her thumb and forefinger under her chin, thinking. Suddenly, she beamed. "Oh! I have an idea!"
"What is?" raising a curious brow, [Y/n] leaned closer to Lumie who was gesturing for her to come close.
The adult woman cupped her hand and whispered something in the younger girl's ear. Once she finished, she removed her hand and watched as her [e/c] orbs widened in surprise. Immediately, the girl gasped. The bluenette giggled at the reaction, pleased.
"Ohhh... That's brilliant, Lumie! Why didn't I think of that?!" she exclaimed happily. Her hands immediately found themselves clasping together as she stared at Lumie's face with sparkling eyes. "I'll be looking forward to it!"
"Okay," Lumie nodded happily. "I'm keeping you here for too long. You go and enjoy skating, [N/n]."
"Mhm! Catch you later, Lumie!" waving, [Y/n] skated away from the blue-haired adult.
Lumie's roseate orbs followed after the [h/c]-haired girl. She watched as the youngster returned her to her older siblings. Eliciting a gentle smile, she then turned around at Nine's call, skating to where they are.
Tumblr media
"Hallo~ I'm back~" [Y/n] chirped, her skates slowly stopping right in front of the twins.
"Oh, hey," Dietrich acknowledged, raising a hand before dropping it.
"What were you talking about with Lumie?" Zelda asked.
However, [Y/n] smirked, placing both hands on her hips. "It's a secret that I'm not going to tell you two~"
"Wow..." the ravenette man said as he and his twin sweatdropped. "That must have been interesting...."
[Y/n] attention drifted to her friends. Nearby, the group of the Blake cousins, Charlotte, Fram, and Johan were together. Mikhail was standing still, his arm out for the blonde girl to latch on to for support. Lyn sat on her legs, cheeks squished against both fists with her elbows resting on her thigh. Her face contained a hint of boredom, squabbling with her older cousin once more. Something along the lines of "I really want to see you fall on ice," and "I doubt you can skate properly without any help," were thrown at each other.
As for Charlotte, her gaze was fixated on poor Johan struggling in front of her. Her round green eyes blinked innocently, however, the words that flew out of her mouth were backhanded encouragement targeted at the other blonde. She didn't mean any harm, it's just the way her words were delivered that felt like an insult towards the bespectacled man. Fram was also observing her friend, a hand on her hip while another was scratching her head. Her half-lidded blue eyes stared at Johan, lips pursed into a thin line.
The [h/c]-haired girl pushed herself forward, inching closer to the group to eavesdrop on their conversation and enjoy watching Johan suffer from humiliation. Speaking of the blonde, he was struggling even more. His shoulders were hunching upwards while his legs were slightly bent backward. His arms were spread out for balance, though, whenever he moved his legs, instead of moving forward, he was sliding backward. One sentence coming from Fram made the [h/c]ette laugh, however—
"Maybe you should really consider using skating aids. You know, the one for kids."
Flustered, Johan still manage to reply. "I don't need it."
"Welp. Alright, your call," the ravenette shrugged.
Johan's face was mixed with emotions, [Y/n] could tell. Frustration from his inability to skate. Embarrassment from being watched as he struggles. Humiliation due to his friend's comments and unintentional insults. And the determination to pull through and make progress. Although, seeing his tomato-red face and his quivering lips was a sight to behold. And [Y/n] wanted so badly to join in bullying Johan and tease him incessantly about it.
But for now, she decided to be forgiving and spare him another wave of embarrassment. It's not like she doesn't have any chance to jab at the blonde's ego... After all, [Y/n] is the epitome of a darling rascal.
She glided towards them, stopping just an arm's reach from Johan. Every gaze landed on her as everyone had various reactions to her arrival.
"Oh, you're here, [N/n]!" Charlotte beamed, waving cheerfully.
Fram placed both hands behind her head and grinned. "Hey."
Lyn stood up, dusting her clothes as she sent a wide smile. Mikhail also had a soft smile upon seeing the girl. Meanwhile, Johan glanced up from his almost crouched position. Despite being in a ridiculous situation, he managed to bring out a sheepish smile, the pink tint hasn't left his fair cheeks. For some reason, [Y/n]'s heart fluttered upon seeing such a rare sight.
She chuckled, inching closer to him. "Are you okay, Johan? Your face looks quite red."
"I'll be fine, thanks."
"No. No, you won't be fine," Charlotte shook her head with a huff, crossing her arms. Her face was serious — eyebrows knitted and lips pouted. "You won't be able to move on if you can't balance yourself! You can't skate to save your life!"
"Please, Charlotte..."
At Charlotte's remark, everybody laughed. Except for Johan whose features twisted into inevitable defeat and Mikhail who held a sympathetic look. The former hid his blooming face from the group by covering it with his hands, attempting to ignore everyone's laughter. As a result, his face burned hotter.
"Cute..."
[Y/n] giggled at his misfortune as she approached him. Reaching out, she gently touched his shoulder, shaking it a bit. Hesitantly looking up, his dark pools met with her [e/c] ones.
"I'll give you a tip so you don't have to suffer further," she coaxed. "Please stand straight."
And just like that, [Y/n] began advising the older blonde on how to stand and balance on the ice. Of course, she was narrating all the tips she had used from the first time she tried ice skating years before. The rest of the group watched in awe as the young girl manage to get Johan on his feet and is now gliding through the ice with little difficulty. And now that Johan was able to fend for himself, Charlotte doesn't need to watch his struggles and actually skate with him.
It didn't take long for the five of them to skate around — Mikhail and Lyn were trying to catch each other and push the other off balance while Fram, Charlotte, and Johan were making small glides, matching with and making sure that the bespectacled blonde doesn't trip and ended up injuring himself.
"I didn't expect that he easily learn from me. Am I a great instructor?"
Smiling triumphantly, [Y/n] decided to let them enjoy themselves and move on to her next set of targets. Nearby, she saw a particular duo. Her eyes glistened as she made her way toward them.
"[Y/n]!" a certain magenta-haired female greeted, grinning widely. Her same-colored eyes sparkled with happiness, making the [h/c]ette chuckle softly. "Yo! Wassup?"
"Hey, Astrid. I'm here to check up on you two," she returned the smile. Her gaze then landed on the man leaning against the barrier. "You're not looking so great, are you, Joshua?"
"Ugh..." the man groaned, trying to find his balance. His narrowed eyes were directed at [Y/n], distress showcased in his pink hues. "You don't say... I was taking my time to relax here when Astrid came to bother me."
"You're no fun!" Astrid crossed her arms, frowning. "What's the point of attending Lumie's birthday celebration if you're not going to enjoy it?"
"Well, I prefer to be left on my own devices for a while," he sighed in exasperation, face-palming.
"Boo!" The magenta-haired female stuck a tongue at him.
A smirk finally emerged on [Y/n]'s lips, and a hint of mischief sparkled in her [e/c] orbs. "Oh, well. I bet this is Joshua's first time on the ice. I can see that he wants to save himself from potential embarrassment~"
At her words, Joshua whipped his head in the young girl's direction. The shock was evident on his face for a brief moment before he went poker-faced. He huffed, aggrieved by her accusations... Though, judging by the embarrassed blush on his cheeks and his desire to be left alone screams that he's really a first-timer in ice skating. [Y/n] wasn't complaining though — since a certain red-eyed ravenette wasn't present today, she had to find other victims to tease incessantly.
Astrid stifles a laugh. Then, she had a brilliant idea. Grinning, she faced the younger girl. [Y/n], noticing her stare, glanced in Astrid's direction, meeting her mischief-filled orbs. And as if they were telepathically communicating, [Y/n]'s smirk grew.
They then both faced the pink-haired man. Joshua noticed their gaze, and he felt like prey caught by two predators. He tried to keep his calm, but the sweat cascading down the side of his face was certainly an indication of what he was currently feeling.
"Hey..." he said, watching as the two approached inch by inch. "Stop it."
Yet, despite his pleas, Astrid and [Y/n] grabbed each of his arms away from the barrier and began pulling Joshua into the ice.
"H-hey!"
"You'll thank us later~" Astrid nonchalantly grinned, using all her strength to pull Joshua and skate into the middle.
"Enjoy~"
Once they were a few feet away from the safety of the barriers, both girls let go of Joshua. Due to inertia, the man went gliding a few more inches, almost losing his balance when the ones holding him left. Fortunately for him, he was able to keep his body steady with little difficulty for a brief moment...
Until the sudden weight loss caused him to lose concentration on which foot to use. His legs wobbled, and suddenly, he fell on his backside. Astrid and [Y/n] watched the entire time, even hearing the thud when he fell on the ice. [Y/n] winced, closing an eye during the impact. Although, her worry for him was brief when amusement immediately washed over her at Joshua's misfortune.
"Ow..." the man painfully drawled out, rubbing his backside with one hand while the other was flat against the cold ice.
"Yeesh..."
Even Astrid felt Joshua's pain. Though, she could only give a low whistle as if none of what happened was because of her. Instead, facing [Y/n], she raised a hand. The younger girl understood what that gesture meant. So with guilty pleasure, she high-fived the woman.
"Ugh... I hate you two," after he recovered, Joshua glared hard at the two girls, still sitting on the cold ice.
He was definitely embarrassed... but his annoyance overshadowed that. His fair face was covered with a red hue, his eyebrows knitted and his eyes narrowed. His lips were pursed into a thin line, the corner dipping into a frown. Despite his look of annoyance, [Y/n] only giggled in amusement. She couldn't help it — he looked so cute.
"Alright, alright. Let's stop embarrassing poor Joshua," [Y/n]'s grin became apologetic. After all, she did cause a scene. "We'll help you up. Will that make you forgive us?"
The girls skated to Joshua, stopping in front of him. They both extend a hand and he took them without hesitations. In just a moment, they were able to pull him up and help him keep steady on his feet. Once he was stable, Joshua exhaled deeply, letting go of their hands. After dusting his wet butt, he gave them a stern glare.
"I'll think about forgiving you two later."
[Y/n] smiled playfully. "Aw~"
"Take your time, Josh," chimed in Astrid. "You know that you can't stay mad at our cutie over here."
Joshua turned away, his face becoming flushed again, unable to hold back his embarrassment. Though, what Astrid said was definitely true. Despite [Y/n]'s pranks and intense teasing, her charm and innocence would make them give in. Though, it only works most of the time.
The man huffed, trying to figure out how to return to his original place. Surprisingly, he was making small progress. However, Astrid won't let him have it.
"Nuh-uh-ah! You won't get back there!" once more, she grabbed his forearm and skated away, pulling him even more in the middle of the open rink.
"Astrid!"
Joshua's panicked scream could be heard throughout the room as he was dragged across the rink by his arm. He tried his best to tug free but Astrid was surprisingly strong for someone who isn't that muscular. As he attempted to shake off the woman's grip, [Y/n] snickered quietly at his expense, watching them from afar.
"Well, there they go..."
The young girl pushed forward, skating towards a particular dark blue-haired adult not that far away. Helena was struggling just like the others, but surprisingly, she was able to get her balance right away and was doing something else.
"Hey, Helena," [Y/n] called out when the older woman caught sight of her.
Helena perked up upon being addressed, her brow quirked in surprise. "Ah, [Y/n]! What brings you here?"
"Well..." [Y/n] paused as she looked away, spotting the Valkarios cousins zooming across the rink like they were in a race. "I was just checking up on everyone here just to see how they're doing. How are you, though? Struggling?"
"I'm fine," the woman assured. "I was struggling at first but I got the hang of it. I'm glad that my ballet skills are useful here."
"Mhm. I kinda expected you to be one of the first to actually master ice skating," [Y/n] smiled. "After all, figure skaters learn ballet first before they get on the ice."
Helena's golden orbs glinted with interest. "Do you have experience?"
"Hm?" facing the bluenette, [Y/n] let out a sheepish chuckle as she waved her hand dismissively. "Oh, no. I just discovered that ballet goes hand-in-hand with ice skating when watching an anime about figure skating. I don't do ballet. And ice skating is just for fun."
"Oh, I see."
"Though, I saw you trying something out earlier," the [h/c]ette mentioned. "Were you implementing your ballet earlier?"
"You saw that?" Helena rubbed her temple, averting her golden eyes in embarrassment. "I didn't think anyone noticed."
[Y/n] grinned. "Well, I did~"
At the younger girl's comment, Helena chuckled. "Yeah, just like you said earlier, figure skating is like ballet on ice. I haven't tried ice skating before so I was curious as to what techniques I can pull off."
[E/c] orbs sparkled in awe. "Wow... That's great!"
"Hehe, thanks. And oh, do y—"
All of a sudden, a large figure zoomed past the duo, almost knocking into [Y/n] if it wasn't for Helena's quick reflex, and pulled her in. [E/c] hues were wide in surprise, her heart rate speeding up from whatever had occurred. The young [h/c]ette was in the taller girl's hold, Helena's arms wrapped protectively around her.
Golden eyes glared at the culprit, yelling at the man. "Hey! Watch where you're going, Axel! You almost injured [Y/n]!"
"S-sorry!" Axel apologized, slowing down to a halt. He turned back to see Helena still hugging [Y/n], her heated glare aimed at him. He sweatdropped, rubbing his head.
"I told you to slow down, didn't I?" a certain redhead approached her cousin, sighing.
Axel just frowned, refusing to say another word. After a bit of reprimanding, he and Alev left, skating away but this time, slower. Helena sighed in relief, glad that there wasn't any big incident that happened. She eventually let go of the younger girl, fixing her slightly disheveled hair.
"Sorry I suddenly pulled you in like that," she said, giving [Y/n] an apologetic smile. "It just happened all of a sudden."
"No worries! Actually, if it wasn't for you, I would be on the ice right now with wounds all over my body," [Y/n] got goosebumps at the idea of broken bones and lacerations all over her body. She felt her heart thump, fearful of the possibility. "I doubt I could handle Axel's body slamming me into the ground. Not to mention on ice with literal blades on our shoes."
Helena's expression softened, but the worry hadn't left her face. "I'll give the idiot a big scolding so that he won't do that again. In the meantime, be careful."
"Mhm. I guess I'll see you later, Helena!"
Waving goodbye to the blue-haired adult, [Y/n] skated towards the last group she hadn't spent time with. This time, it consisted of Lucilicca, Lairei, and Vanessa. Eager to be with them, the girl skated faster to reach them who were basically on the opposite side of where she was with Helena earlier. Fortunately, it didn't take long for her to approach the three women.
"[Y/n], were you alright?" Vanessa asked, concern clear on her face.
The [h/c] girl nodded with a smile, showing she was okay.
"Thank goodness. We saw what happened earlier," Lucilicca mumbled to herself while shaking her head. "Axel's gonna be heavily reprimanded by his uncle once he hears of this."
[Y/n] just chuckled at their worrying expressions. "There's no need to worry! Besides, Helena saved me from harm. I'm alright now, see?"
"If you say so," Lairei smiled.
"So, are you ladies okay? You aren't struggling much, are you?" [Y/n] questioned, noticing that they were just standing around and talking.
"We're fine. We're getting the hang of it," the short-haired brunette simpered, clasping her hands together in front. "I ice skated when I was young, so it doesn't take long for me to adjust."
"Dhurahan would be enjoying this if he's here," Lairei commented, sighing softly.
The younger girl tilted her head, curious. "Oh, why wasn't he able to come?"
"He said he can't. Something came up with his family that he has to resolve."
"Oh. That's unfortunate," a frown settled itself on [Y/n]'s face after.
"How about Rouin?" Lucilicca asked, her attention directed at the younger female. "I thought he would be here considering he did most of the process of renting the rink."
"Ah, well. Sadly, he's busy with paperwork," the girl responded, looking downward with regret. "I can't bother him much, can I?"
Considering the hard work he put on to fulfill [Y/n]'s wish of a grand birthday party for Lumie, it's only natural for him to come as well. However, his responsibilities with his work prevented him from attending. [Y/n] would like it if he was to come as well, but bothering him even more when he did everything for her was a bit too much. So, instead, she just hoped that the next time they would go ice skating, everyone would be present.
A smile was plastered on the silver-haired woman's face, patting the girl's shoulder reassuringly. "Don't worry. There'll always be next time."
"Mhm. And I'm sure all of us would be present," Vanessa added.
"The rink wouldn't be able to accommodate all of us when that happens," Lairei chuckled.
"Now, go and have fun with your siblings," Lucilicca said, leaning her head in the direction of the two ravenettes.
[Y/n] held a smile with her own. "Sure! I'll catch up with you three later!"
"Sure."
"See you later."
After bidding farewell, [Y/n] began making her way across the ice and back to her siblings. As soon as she reached her older brother and sister, the twins greeted her enthusiastically with warm smiles upon seeing her return safely to them.
"I didn't expect you almost get in an accident, [N/n]," Dietrich's lackadaisical comment was a clear sarcastic remark.
"Stop it," Zelda nudged at her twin, earning a pained grunt. Facing her younger sister, she showed concern that was absent from the male. "You're not injured, right?"
"I'm fine, big sis," [Y/n] reassured, bringing her arms out to show that she was indeed alright. She faced her older brother, smiling sweetly. "Besides, I bet big brother Dietrich will be able to handle Axel's body slam on the ice."
The man gulped, a nervous sweat trickling down his forehead. Despite the innocent smile, the aura that the younger girl exudes was nothing but dangerous. It sent chills down his spine. Dietrich had to look away from his younger sister, chuckling awkwardly and mentally praying that she won't resort to violence once they get home after the celebration.
"Anyway, I've been skating around and being with everyone else but," she looked between the twins, scrutinizing them both. With her hands on her hips, she huffed. "It seems that during the time I am away the two of you aren't leaving this place."
Zelda and Dietrich shared looks. They knew exactly what the girl meant, but it was either they can't be bothered or just refused to skate. [Y/n] rolled her eyes at them. Then, she grabbed each of their wrists, surprising them both. Just like what she was doing with Joshua earlier, she used all of her strength to pull the twins away from the barrier, albeit with much difficulty considering they are on ice.
"Guh! These two are heavy as heck! If only I have help!"
Two pairs of obsidian orbs watched as the youngest tried her hardest to pull two adults on her own. Her face twisted into one of determination, determination mixed with annoyance. The twins couldn't help but chuckle at how stubborn she is. Even though they were also struggling to keep their balance while being pulled, the two found their younger sister's strength admirable. 
They watched in silent awe as [Y/n] was finally able to drag them onto the ice. Her lips curled into a triumphant smile, happy to win this little fight against the twins.
"Alright! Now it's time for the real fun!" [E/c] eyes burning with resolve, she turned around and clasped her older siblings' hands on each hand — Dietrich on her right and Zelda on her left.
Knowing what she wanted, they both eventually complied. They then pushed their foot forward, gliding along the ice gracefully, slowly but surely.
Tumblr media
An hour and a half later, everyone was getting tired and hungry from their activity. One by one they left the rink and settled comfortably on the provided benches in the lounge. Some of them went in the restroom to change or fix themselves, others were getting a drink and some snacks by the table nearby, while a select few — Joshua, notably — were so drained that they were ready to fall asleep right away. Only a few people remained in the rink, notably Lumie and [Y/n] who were busy chatting with each other.
A certain magenta-haired adult noticed this. And although it wasn't anything out of the ordinary, something was definitely up with them. Driven by curiosity, she went over to the only people she could ask about it.
"Hey, Zelda, Dietrich," Astrid plopped right behind the bench they were situated, resting her arms on the top of the backrest.
"Oh, hey," replied Zelda, wiping the sweat off her face. "What's wrong?"
"Oh, nothing much. Just wondering what's lil' [Y/n]'s up to. She's chatting with Lumie for a while now."
"Well, it's normal for her to talk with the birthday girl," the long-haired ravenette shrugged. "Maybe they're just sharing a bunch of stories. You know how Lumie gets..."
"And considering [Y/n], she won't tell a single soul anything about her secret," added the other twin, sighing. "We asked her earlier what she was talking about with Lumie but we didn't get an answer. So, yeah."
"Hm..." Astrid puckered her lips in thought.
Zelda's words do make sense. But today, Astrid knows that something fishy is certainly going on with the two. Nonetheless, she dropped the idea and returned to resting and chatting with the others. She knew that there isn't any point in trying to question [Y/n] or Lumie. All she knows is that there was something going on with them, and she had no doubt about it.
A few minutes passed, and a certain light-blue-haired woman and [h/c]-haired young girl finally leave the rink. Together, they went over to the table where Lumie's gifts were stacked. They searched through the countless boxes, taking the one that seemed to contain what they want. It was a rather flat box with a white wrapper and light blue ribbon. Once they were done, they exchanged a few words before Lumie went in the direction of the restrooms while [Y/n] went over to the staff present.
While everyone was busy resting or having a snack, the lights in the rink suddenly dimmed. Confused chatter enveloped the room as the actors were wondering whether the staff decided to lower the electricity by turning off the lights that aren't used. It didn't bother them much, that is until something earned their attention.
"Good evening, ladies and gentlemen!" a familiar voice boomed through the loudspeaker scattered around the ice rink.
"[Y/n]?"
"Is she in an announcement room? What?"
"Oh boy, what is she up to this time?"
"That girl..." Dietrich face-palmed. "No wonder I hadn't seen her for a while now."
Zelda looked around, trying to find where she could be despite the darkness. "Was she even permitted to use their components?"
"In a normal circumstance, she wouldn't. I wonder what tricks she used to let the staff allow her to use the PA system."
"Please turn your attention towards the rink," [Y/n] instructed.
Although confused, everyone ambled towards the empty rink, careful not to stumble in the dark. They lined up around the rink, the barrier separating them from what was inside. Although dim, some of them could see a figure in the middle of the ice. Without warnings, a spotlight turned on and it was focused on the lone figure standing in the middle of the ice rink.
They instantly recognized the person's light-blue hair tied in an intricate hairstyle. Their head was bowed, preventing them from seeing their face. The cloth this person was wearing was undoubtedly a figure skating dress. However, what made them stare in awe was the design that looked similar to Aurea's outfit she made for one of the actors — Morning Brilliance.
No doubt, it was Lumie Miratisa. The birthday girl.
Everyone's confusion instantly washed away, replaced by surprise. They stared with bated breath at the woman, watching in awe, waiting for what was next. This was definitely new. Never did they expect this scenario in the first place.
"Ah, no wonder I feel like something was off," Astrid mumbled to herself, letting out a huge breath before a smile graced her lips. "You really are full of surprises, [Y/n]..."
After a good moment of silence, Lumie raised her head and faced the audience. A wide grin was planted on her features as she waved at them.
"Let's give a round of applause for Lumie Miratisa! Tonight, she's going to perform for everyone here!"
At the [h/c]ette's words, loud thunderous applause resonated in the entire venue. The crowd was clapping enthusiastically, cheering for the blue-haired figure skater. In a moment, the music started playing and Lumie began her performance. Every eye was fixated on her, seemingly captivated by her every move. From her dancing to the graceful movements she would make as she twirled and swerved across the ice; it was mesmerizing.
[Y/n]'s expression softened as she focused her gaze on the woman. Her mouth curved into a smile as delight glowed in her glossy, [e/c] eyes. She could feel her heart churn, butterflies fluttering in her stomach. Just seeing Lumie enjoying her special day like this was enough for the young adult.
She had accomplished her goal.

World's Most Beautiful Mirror | Episode 6
After school, the same day
Tumblr media
Shinobu: .....
Yuuta: ...Hey, Shinobu-kun.
I already told you to stay out of this, didn't I? It's for the better.
I'm going to spit in the faces of the higher-ups in this industry. You wouldn't want to be on the side of someone like that, right?
It'll damage the signature of "Ryuseitai", an ally of justice, y'know. If you turn out to be as bad as I am, your "Ryuseitai" might despise you too.
You wouldn't like that, right? Nobody wants to play the role of the bad guy, after all.
Go home.
Shinobu: ...Ninjutsu: the art of hiding.
Tumblr media
Yuuta: What?
Shinobu: Yuuta-kun is now under my ninjutsu and will now start acting in the opposite direction.
In fact, what you're seeing right now is just my hallucination, and the real one is behind the combination over thereー
Yuuta: *hits him*
Shinobu: Ouch! N-No to violence!
Yuuta: I didn't even hit you that hard. If you were Aniki, I would've jump-kicked you.
Shinobu: Violence is not a matter of degree! Whether you hit hard or weakly is equally evil!
Wait, aah, I wasn't hit at all.
Fufufu. Stupid Yuuta-kunーyou didn't even realize that you hit me on the wrong spot? How shameful.
Yuuta: What are you getting at? Look, you're starting to piss me off like any other people, so why don't you just disappear from my sight?
You know, using your ninjutsu and stuff. One poof then get lost.
Shinobu: Ninjutsu is only used to escape from enemies.
And, Yuuta-kun is not my enemy.
Yuuta: Right now, you're using something called the art of hiding. And since you're using ninjutsu at this very moment, it means that you think of me as an enemy, right?
Shinobu: Ah... Y-You're wrong! The art of hiding is an exception. It's used only with allies. I'm telling the truth!
Yuuta: Whatever~ I know nothing about ninjas.
Shinobu: If you're interested, I can teach you a thing or two about them! Ninjas, I mean! I can talk about them with you every week, since they're basically my favorite!
Tumblr media
Yuuta: I don't want to be stuck with an Otaku's pointless and long conversations, though.
Shinobu: Ahh, he ran away! Wait, Yuuta-kun!
Fufufu. You're shallow if you think you can escape ninjas that easily...!
Yuuta: (...What the hell was that?)
(Why does he keep coming after me? Even though I said some really harsh things that would make him want to vomit from self-loathing.)
(Why do you care? Is it because we're friends? What friends?)
(What would a normal kid like him know? A normal kid who was loved by normal parents, who went to normal schools and made normal friends.)
(I don't understand...! Why was I even born as a special childーwho doesn't even understand such ordinary things?)
1 hour later
Tumblr media
Yuuta: (Fuu... I somehow got away from him.)
(Shinobu-kun, I gotta admit, I had a hard time because you were persistently chasing me, you were surprisingly fast and seemed to be good at tailing...as expected of a ninja.)
Tumblr media
(But I've also got my share of chasing! I've always played tag with Aniki since I was little, after all!)
(That one time when he did something stupid and I just got mad so I started chasing himー)
Tumblr media
(...Thanks to him, I had forgotten about all the bad stuff. Even if nothing was solved, it would have been somewhat refreshing to catch that Aniki and put him through so much pain.)
(That's how I've always healed...by sandbagging my own brother.)
(I felt satisfied in making Aniki the symbol of all evil in the world and beating him into pulp. "Yeah, I'm on the good side compared to this kid"ーthey say.)
(I'm on the side of justice, they say.)
(But. This is no good, I'll just end up feeling sorry for "Hinata-kun" in the end.)
(That's why I'm going to be the devil this time.)
(No, from the very beginning, the one who has always been evil wasー)
Tumblr media
Shinobu: Yu~uta-kun ♪
Yuuta: Hiyeaaaahhhh!?
Shinobu: Woah, what a scream you got there. Don't tell me you never noticed that I was behind you all this time?
Hmm. I'm afraid that my art of concealment is more advanced than I thought.
Yuuta: ...What do you want.
Come to think of it, I'm currently disguising myself as "Byakuya Aoi" so, how'd you know that it was me?
Shinobu: Fufun. A ninja's eyesight cannot be fooled! It's obvious at just a glance!
Yuuta: When you first met him, you were like "Who!?" and panicked, though?
Shinobu: ...Yuuta-kun, do you want some ice cream?
Yuuta: Huh? It's winter, right?
Shinobu: Ice cream in winter is still very special. Every year, new ice cream products for such customers line up in convenience stores and other places for them.
And I'm one of those people who gets excited and buys them every year.
Tumblr media
Yuuta: Hmm...
Shinobu: ...I've always wanted a friend whom I can talk to about these not-so-important things.
Yuuta: If you wanna talk about that stuff, you have "Ryuseitai", don't you?
Shinobu: We've...got a lot of problems.
We don't really stop talking about work, or the future of the unit, I'll end up having a stomachache and won't be able to eat ice cream.
Yuuta: I get you. In my case, not so much now, but before, my family, friends and colleagues...they were all Anikiーso if we get into a fight, it's gonna be really bad.
The whole world would be so dark. As if it was always night. I couldn't see a thing.
Shinobu: I know.
I want you to talk about all that, important and not-so-important things. I...want to know more about Yuuta-kun.
Yuuta: Do you meanーyou're gonna be a bad guy with me?
Shinobu: Nope. I'm still a member of "Ryuseitai" who stands alongside justice, so I can't get involved in any wrongdoing.
Yuuta: Then, this conversation is officially over~
Shinobu: I won't let it end. I'm not going to become a proper hero if I overlook evil, and I'm not a proper human being if I abandon my friends in distress.[1]
I'm just a mere coward and I don't think I can do bad things together with Yuuta-kun. I can't really sympathise because I have never thought about wanting to take revenge on someone.
Yuuta: .....
Shinobu: Even so, I might be able to help Yuuta-kun defeat his enemies in a different way. I'll use my head for that, and I'll do whatever I can to help him.
Even if Yuuta-kun doesn't want that, "I'll" still do it.[2]
That's my decision.
Yuuta: This is really selfish. Why am I always surrounded by people like you.
Maybe I...could have been selfish like you. I could have been angry at "me" for being a bad guy, for disobeying my parents, and other precious peopleー
It's not like I was forbidden for acting normal like everyone else to begin with...
Tumblr media
Shinobu: It's not like anyone was forbidden to do this or that in the first place, you know.
Yuuta: Yeah... Can I have some ice cream too?
I don't like sweets that much, but when I saw it, I wanted to try some.
Shinobu: I don't really mind, but I'm not treating you, okay? Pay for it.
Yuuta: Eeh~? Shinobu-kun, you're too cheap~!
Tumblr media
Shinobu: I've already told you many timesーI'm broke.
Yuuta: .....♪
Shinobu: .....♪
Notes:
Surprisingly, Shinobu started talking here in a more 'normal' way, without the "degozaru"s.
Shinobu finally used the first person pronoun "Boku" here, which Yuuta seemed to prefer from the past episodes.

in which it's y/n's first day UA, and they forget their lunch
warnings: none except i wrote this when i was 13 and i think it's gross but my friend wanted me to reupload it
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
"Dad!" Y/n called through the house. "Come on Dad we're gonna be late!"
A tired Shouta Aizawa shuffled through the door of the house. "Y/n, it is six in the morning, you don't need to yell."
"But Dad!" Y/n spoke with a childlike whine. "It's my first day at UA. I can't be late!"
Aizawa groaned at his only child. "I'm teaching your class, you won't be late."
Y/n stood in front of their father, hands on hips. "Come on! You're extra grouchy this morning."
Aizawa rolled his eyes and began walking down the sidewalk with Y/n, following the path he'd memorized in his years of UA teaching.
The pair had arrived at the school entrance, Y/n in awe despite seeing the building numerous times beforehand. This would be the first time they'd walk in to learn on the Hero course instead of delivering lunch to their forgetful father.
"I thought you didn't want to be late."
"Sorry!" Y/n ran after their father, almost running into a green-headed boy. They turned around and waved at him in apology. "Sorry about that!" They gave the green boy a smile and went back to chasing down their father.
"Y/n, you can't be in the teacher's lounge anymore, you're a student now."
Y/n puckered their bottom lip and pouted. "I just wanted to say hi to some of the teachers!"
"And you can do that when they teach your class. Now run along."
Y/n sighed, slinging their backpack over their shoulder when a booming voice came from high above their head.
"Aizawa!" All Might grinned at his colleague. He turned to Y/n, who was standing next to Aizawa. "Who's this?" He gestured to Y/n, clad in the standard green bottoms, wite polo, gray blazer, and red tie.
"This is my kid, Y/n Aizawa." Aizawa grumbled out, sipping his fourth cup of coffee.
Y/n looked at the tall blond in awe. "You're All Might!"
"I am! And you're Y/n Aizawa."
Y/n nodded with fervor. "Are you teaching at UA?"
All Might grinned and placed his hands on his hips. "I am here!" He paused for a glory moment after his catch phrase. "To teach the young minds that will shape our society!"
Y/n nodded. "That's super cool!"
Aizawa looked at the clock. "Y/n, go on to your classroom, the bell will ring soon."
Y/n nodded, bouncing over to their father to give him a kiss on the cheek. "Love ya Dad!" They waved goodbye and left the teachers lounge.
Y/n entered the 1-A classroom, the sound of crosstalk filled their ears. A boy with glasses was waving at an ash-blond who had his feet on the desk.
The red-eyed boy scoffed. "Did your old school put a stick up your ass or were you born with it?" He said with a chuckle.
On the other side of the room was a small group. A bubblegum pink girl was the first to notice the newest arrival. She bounded over to Y/n with a smile.
"I'm Mina Ashido! What's your name?" Ashido grinned, sticking out her hand.
Y/n shook Ashido's hand with a smile. "Y/n Aizawa."
"Y/n sit in your seat."
Y/n nodded at the voice behind them. "Yes dad."
Y/n had chosen a seat in the back row, close enough to hear who ever was teaching but far enough to goof off with their new friends.
A laugh came from Denki Kaminari, pointing at Y/n. "Your mom's gay."
Ashido, Kirishima, Sero, and Y/n burst into laughter, stopping when a knock came from the door. Everyone's attention turned to the new arrival.
A tall blond entered the room with a smile. "Y/n, Shouta." The tall man set a pair of bento boxes on Aizawa's desk. "You forgot your lunches." He smiled, kissing his husband on the cheek and waving to Y/n before exiting the room.
"Actually, both of my dads are gay." Y/n grinned at Kaminari.
