➥ one shot

Within the bustling halls of U.A. High School, Class 1-A buzzed with activity, a vibrant group of young heroes-in-training. Among them, Tenya Iida stood as a beacon of discipline and focus, always the embodiment of a model student. Yet, unknown to his classmates, his heart held a secret—an unspoken connection that would soon come to light.

The morning sun cast its golden glow through the classroom windows as Class 1-A settled into their seats, eagerly awaiting the start of another day of training and learning. As the room hummed with anticipation, the door swung open, and a figure stepped inside.

All eyes turned towards the newcomer, surprise etched upon their faces. It was (Y/N), a second-year student, her presence adding an air of intrigue to the room. Tenya, taken aback by her sudden arrival, couldn't help but feel a mix of nervousness and excitement.

Ochaco Uraraka, her eyes wide with curiosity, spoke up first. "Since when did you have a girlfriend, Iida?"

Tenya's cheeks flushed with a hint of embarrassment, but he held his composure, his voice steady. "Actually, (Y/N) is my fiancée."

Gasps filled the room as Tenya's revelation sank in. The concept of an arranged marriage within their class seemed almost surreal, yet the truth of their connection began to take shape. The air crackled with a mix of shock, excitement, and a touch of envy.

Izuku Midoriya, his eyes shining with admiration, couldn't help but ask, "How did you meet, Iida? And how did your relationship come to be?"

Tenya smiled warmly, his gaze shifting towards (Y/N). "We were paired together since we were children, destined to be married to strengthen the bond between our families. But as we grew older, our feelings blossomed into something deeper. We realized that our connection went beyond duty and tradition. We fell in love."

Momo Yaoyorozu, her voice filled with awe, couldn't hide her fascination. "That's incredible, Iida. To have a love that's both rooted in tradition and genuine affection—it's truly something special."

(Y/N) stepped forward, her presence commanding attention. "Our relationship has been a journey of growth and understanding. We've learned to navigate the expectations placed upon us while honoring our individual desires and aspirations. Together, we support and encourage each other to become the best versions of ourselves."

As the realization settled upon the class, they exchanged glances filled with newfound respect. The concept of love, rooted in tradition yet blossoming with genuine emotion, was a testament to the complexities of the heart. Tenya and (Y/N) showcased a deep understanding and commitment, proving that love could evolve beyond initial circumstances.

Eijiro Kirishima, his voice filled with admiration, spoke up. "Iida, you've always been a model of discipline and focus. It's inspiring to see that even within the constraints of an arranged marriage, you've found a love that's true to your own hearts."

Tenya nodded, gratitude shining in his eyes. "Thank you, Kirishima. Our relationship has taught me the importance of staying true to myself while embracing the responsibilities that come with my family's traditions. It's a delicate balance, but (Y/N) has been my rock throughout it all."

The class, their initial shock giving way to understanding and acceptance, shared a collective moment of reflection. They realized that love could take many forms, and Tenya and (Y/N)'s connection was a testament to the depth of emotions that could develop even under the weight of expectations.

As the day progressed, the students of Class 1-A forged a newfound bond of respect for Tenya and (Y/N). They understood that love could be a powerful force, capable of transcending societal norms and traditions. It was a reminder that their own journey of self-discovery included not only becoming heroes but also nurturing the relationships that held importance in their lives.

And so, within the walls of U.A. High School, Class 1-A continued their journey, their hearts enriched by the understanding that love was a vast tapestry of emotions, intertwining duty and genuine affection. As they honed their powers and skills, they also learned the importance of nurturing the bonds that connected them, cherishing the complexity and beauty of love in all its forms.

And in the heart of it all, Tenya and (Y/N) stood as a beacon of hope, demonstrating that even within the constraints of an arranged marriage, love could flourish and ignite the brightest flames in their hearts.

•••

Time had flown swiftly, carrying Class 1-A into their second year at U.A. High School. The vibrant group of aspiring heroes had grown both individually and as a team, their bonds strengthening with each passing day. Amidst this bustling atmosphere, (Y/N) had become a third-year student, poised to embark on her own journey of growth and discovery.

On a bright and bustling day, (Y/N) found herself standing before the classroom where Tenya and his classmates convened. A smile played upon her lips as she clutched a carefully prepared bento, a tangible representation of her enduring love and support for Tenya.

As (Y/N) entered the room, the class turned their attention toward her, their curiosity piqued by her arrival. Tenya, his gaze meeting hers, felt a rush of warmth spread through his chest.

Ochaco Uraraka, her eyes wide with anticipation, couldn't help but blurt out, "Hey, (Y/N)! It's been a while. What brings you here today?"

(Y/N)'s smile widened as she held up the bento box. "I made this for Tenya. It's a small gesture to show my support and love."

Tenya's eyes sparkled with a mix of surprise and gratitude. "Thank you, (Y/N). I appreciate your thoughtfulness."

As Tenya accepted the bento, the class watched with a mix of awe and curiosity. Their intrigue had grown since learning about Tenya and (Y/N)'s arranged marriage, and witnessing the continuation of their traditions was both fascinating and heartwarming.

Mina Ashido, her voice filled with excitement, couldn't contain her curiosity any longer. "Tell us, (Y/N), what's it like being in an arranged marriage? How do you navigate the balance between tradition and your own desires?"

(Y/N) took a moment to gather her thoughts, her eyes filled with a mix of nostalgia and determination. "It's a journey of self-discovery, Mina. Our arranged marriage has been both a challenge and a gift. We've learned to find our own voices within the framework of our families' expectations. It's about cherishing tradition while staying true to ourselves."

Izuku Midoriya, his eyes filled with admiration, spoke up. "It sounds like you both have grown so much. Your love is inspiring, (Y/N)."

(Y/N) nodded, her voice gentle yet resolute. "Love is an ever-evolving journey, Izuku. We're constantly learning, adjusting, and supporting each other through it all. Our shared values and commitment to one another keep us grounded."

As the conversation continued, Class 1-A listened with rapt attention, captivated by (Y/N)'s insights into their unique relationship. They realized that love had no set path, and its manifestations were as diverse as the individuals experiencing it.

Shoto Todoroki, his gaze thoughtful, interjected, "Do you ever feel constrained by the expectations placed upon you, (Y/N)?"

(Y/N) met Shoto's gaze, her voice tinged with honesty. "At times, it can be challenging, Shoto. There are moments when the weight of tradition feels heavy. But love is about growth, and our relationship has allowed us to redefine our roles, navigate the complexities, and carve our own path within the arrangement."

Momo Yaoyorozu, her voice filled with admiration, spoke softly. "You both truly embody the spirit of heroes, embracing challenges head-on while remaining true to yourselves."

(Y/N) smiled, her heart warmed by their words. "Thank you, Momo. We strive to be the best versions of ourselves, not just for each other but for the world we wish to protect."

As the classroom settled into a comfortable silence, (Y/N) took her leave, bidding farewell to the class and leaving Tenya with the bento. She left behind a sense of awe and inspiration, her visit a reminder that love could transcend societal expectations and empower individuals to create their own narratives.

Tenya, holding the bento close to his heart, gazed at the doorway, contemplating the love and support he had found in (Y/N). Their bond, forged through tradition and nurtured by their own commitment, had shaped their journey in unexpected and beautiful ways.

Class 1-A, now even more aware of the depth of Tenya and (Y/N)'s love, exchanged glances filled with newfound respect and understanding. They had witnessed firsthand the power of tradition, the beauty of love, and the unbreakable spirit of their classmate.

And as they continued their second year at U.A. High School, the students of Class 1-A carried within them the lessons of (Y/N)'s visit—cherishing tradition while forging their own paths, embracing love in all its forms, and allowing their relationships to shape their journeys as aspiring heroes.

For within the halls of U.A. High School, the heroes of tomorrow learned that strength lay not only in their quirks but also in the love and support they offered one another. With (Y/N) as an emblem of the enduring power of love, Class 1-A embarked on their path, united by bonds that surpassed expectations and embraced the beauty of shared traditions and new beginnings.

•••

Time had flown swiftly, carrying Class 1-A into their third and final year at U.A. High School. The once-inexperienced heroes had evolved into formidable individuals, their dreams and aspirations within reach. Amidst this season of growth and transition, Tenya and (Y/N) prepared for a momentous occasion—their upcoming wedding.

In the common room of the dorms, a table was adorned with wedding magazines, fabric swatches, and carefully crafted invitations. Tenya and (Y/N) sat side by side, their eyes sparkling with excitement and anticipation. They were lost in a world of plans and possibilities, weaving their dreams into reality.

As they pored over the details of their special day, the door swung open, and the members of Class 1-A filed into the room. Surprise filled their eyes as they took in the scene before them—a tableau of love, dedication, and commitment.

Izuku Midoriya, his voice filled with awe, was the first to speak. "Tenya, (Y/N), I didn't realize you were planning your wedding already. Congratulations!"

Tenya's cheeks flushed with a mixture of excitement and slight embarrassment. "Thank you, Midoriya. We've been making preparations over the past few months, taking the time to ensure every detail reflects our shared vision."

Mina Ashido, her eyes wide with anticipation, couldn't contain her enthusiasm. "Can we help? We'd love to be a part of your special day!"

(Y/N) beamed, her heart touched by the support from their friends. "That would mean the world to us, Mina. We'd be grateful for any assistance you can offer."

As the class gathered around the table, the room filled with excitement and the scent of love in the air. The students eagerly poured over magazines, discussing ideas and sharing their own suggestions.

Ochaco Uraraka, her voice filled with enthusiasm, held up a fabric swatch. "What about this color for the bridesmaid dresses? It would complement the theme so well!"

Tenya and (Y/N) exchanged glances, their hearts swelling with gratitude. Their friends' involvement in their special day only deepened their appreciation for the bonds they had formed at U.A. High School.

Eijiro Kirishima, his voice filled with determination, chimed in, "We'll make sure your wedding day is as memorable as possible, Iida. We're a team, after all!"

Tenya's voice carried a mix of gratitude and sincerity. "Thank you, Kirishima. Your unwavering support means the world to us. Our wedding day will be a testament to the bonds we've formed at U.A."

As the planning continued, the students of Class 1-A took on various tasks, each contributing their own unique talents. Momo Yaoyorozu lent her keen eye for design, crafting elegant decorations, while Katsuki Bakugo tackled the task of organizing the explosive wedding fireworks.

Days turned into weeks, and the wedding day drew closer. The dorms became a flurry of activity as Class 1-A dedicated themselves to ensuring every detail was perfect.

On the day of the wedding, the air buzzed with anticipation and joy. The U.A. High School campus was adorned with flowers, and the chapel stood as a symbol of love and unity. Class 1-A stood proudly as witnesses and supporters, their hearts filled with love for their dear friends.

As the ceremony commenced, (Y/N) walked down the aisle, her radiant smile capturing Tenya's heart once more. Tenya stood at the altar, his eyes fixed on (Y/N) as she made her way towards him. Their love shone brightly, a beacon of hope and devotion.

The vows they exchanged were heartfelt and sincere, evoking tears of joy from the gathered friends and family. The couple sealed their union with a kiss, their love celebrated by the cheers and applause of those around them.

As the reception unfolded, the students of Class 1-A reveled in the joyous atmosphere. They danced, laughed, and shared heartfelt moments with one another. The bond they had forged over the years had only grown stronger, and the celebration of Tenya and (Y/N)'s love served as a reminder of the power of friendship and unwavering support.

Amidst the festivities, Tenya and (Y/N) took a moment to steal away, finding solace in each other's arms. They looked out at their friends, their family, and their journey at U.A. High School, overwhelmed with gratitude for the love that surrounded them.

Tenya's voice held a mix of emotion as he whispered, "Thank you, (Y/N). Our love has overcome challenges and surpassed expectations. I am forever grateful for your unwavering support."

(Y/N) smiled, her gaze filled with love and tenderness. "And I, Tenya, am forever grateful for your dedication and the love we share. Our journey has been a testament to the power of love and the strength of our bond."

And so, within the halls of U.A. High School, a love story unfolded, entwined with friendship and support. Class 1-A celebrated the eternal bond between Tenya and (Y/N), a testament to the enduring power of love and the beauty of shared dreams.

As they danced the night away, the students of Class 1-A reveled in the joy of their friends' happiness, knowing that love, unity, and the bonds they had forged at U.A. would forever shape their lives as heroes.

Out of All: Chp 2

Jake Seresin x OC! Anna Bradshaw

Brothers' Best Friend Series! Follow along as these characters navigate the treacherous waters of love, loyalty, and desire, all while facing the ultimate taboo: falling for your sibling's best friend. From heart-pounding moments to steamy encounters, this series is a rollercoaster of emotions that will keep you hooked until the very end. Brace yourself for intense romantic tension, sizzling chemistry, and enough drama to keep you guessing. Are you ready to embark on this captivating journey?

This chapter includes explicit sexual content with detailed descriptions of sexual activity and intimacy between characters. Scenes depict physical intimacy, including kissing, touching, and biting, with characters described in states of undress. Emotional intensity is explored, encompassing themes of longing, desire, and vulnerability, with brief references to past trauma. Characters may be shown consuming alcoholic beverages, and mature themes such as casual relationships.

Waking up was always a dreaded task, akin to reluctantly shouldering the weight of the world each morning. The thought of facing the harsh realities of life outside your cocoon of dreams filled you with a sense of unease that lingered from one day to the next. Yet today held a glimmer of promise, a flicker of hope amidst the usual dread. Today marked the beginning of a new chapter, the dawn of a long-awaited dream.

Your plan for the day laid out before you like a roadmap to liberation. First, the mundane rituals of existence: rise, nourish, work. Then, the exhilarating prospect of a cliffside walk, pen in hand, ready to breathe life into the blank canvas of the page. It was the day you would step into the realm of creation, where melodies would intertwine with your soul's deepest yearnings, giving voice to the unspoken truths that dwelled within.

The blaring intrusion of your alarm jolted you from your slumber, a rude awakening to the day's demands. With heavy limbs and bleary eyes, you stumbled through the motions of morning, each step a battle against the weight of exhaustion that threatened to engulf you. A splash of cold water on your face offered a fleeting reprieve, a feeble attempt to rouse yourself from the clutches of sleep.

Perched on the edge of the bath, you found solace in the stillness of the moment, seeking refuge in the quietude of self-reflection. The mirror before you reflected a semblance of resolve, a whispered reminder that today, you would seize the reins of destiny and forge your own path.

With trembling hands, you applied a gentle touch of makeup, a subtle armor against the world's scrutiny. Your curls cascaded in wild abandon, a testament to the untamed spirit that dwelled within. A final swipe of lipstick imbued with the hue of courage, and you were ready to face the day head-on.

Dressed in jeans and a blazer, adorned with subtle accents of jewelry, you stepped into the world with a quiet confidence, a silent vow to confront whatever lay ahead with unwavering determination. As you gathered your belongings and prepared to embark on the journey that awaited, the echo of a whispered mantra lingered in the air: "You've got this. Just get up and get wild."

Outside, familiar faces greeted you with laughter and camaraderie, a reminder that you were not alone in your quest for fulfillment. Amidst the banter and camaraderie, you found solace in the shared journey towards self-discovery, each step bringing you closer to the realization of your dreams.

"Hey Bagman!" Phoenix's voice sliced through the air, drawing Jake's attention away from his thoughts. With Rooster and Bob in tow, the trio approached, likely having car-pooled from the same vicinity. Jake pivoted, waiting for them to catch up, seamlessly integrating into their group, forming a line of four as they walked.

Bradley couldn't resist teasing, his words laced with playful banter. "You ran off on us early yesterday, how was the chick of yours?" The mischievous glint in Bradley's eyes elicited laughter from Phoenix and Bob, but Jake's expression shifted, a smirk playing at his lips as he responded, perhaps oversharing just a tad. "The best head in my life." His admission was met with groans and eye rolls from his comrades, who deemed it TMI.

"Jesus Hangman, T.M.I man!" Phoenix's laughter echoed through the air, while Bob simply shook his head at Jake's candidness. Bradley, ever the diplomat, offered a pat on the back. "Fair played. Lucky man."

Little did Bradley know the true extent of his wingman's fortune.

As Bob and Phoenix led the way, Jake and Bradley lingered behind, savoring the tranquility of their stroll. Bradley seized the opportunity to inquire further about Jake's rendezvous. Jake's grin widened as he reminisced, painting a vivid picture of his encounter. "Mate, she was fucking godly. You should've seen her little mouth on me, fucking goddess."

Entering the men's locker room, the conversation continued, punctuated by the clatter of bags being set down and lockers being unlocked. Rooster chimed in, acknowledging Jake's luck, while Bradley redirected the conversation, curious about Bradley's own escapades with a red-headed woman from the night before.

"Not my type," Bradley admitted with a shrug. "She was, I don't know how to put it. But for sure not for me." His discomfort was palpable, a stark contrast to Jake's exuberance. Mentioning his sister's recent move-in, Bradley emphasized the newfound need for discretion.

Jake nodded in understanding, contemplating the dynamics of sibling cohabitation, a concept foreign to him. He couldn't help but marvel at Rooster's familial ties, a reminder of the complexities of human relationships.

Bradley's focus shifted back to Jake, eager to hear about his own romantic conquests. "So how was your chick besides that?" he inquired, prompting Jake to share more about his evening. With a grin, Jake painted a vivid picture of his encounter, his words dripping with satisfaction.

As they prepared for their day ahead, Jake couldn't help but tease Bradley about introducing his sister to the group, a prospect that promised to inject new life into their dynamic. "You know you really gotta introduce your sister to us," Jake prodded, a mischievous twinkle in his eye. "Need to meet the other living and breathing Bradshaw."

Bradley nodded in agreement, hinting at future introductions, a promise of shared experiences yet to come.

You sat amidst a sea of crumpled papers and scattered notes, the lyrics of your soul laid bare before you. This album was more than just a collection of songs; it was a testament to your journey, a cathartic release of pent-up emotion. With each word, each chord, you sought to carve out a niche for yourself in the tumultuous world of music.

Harry, your steadfast companion in this musical odyssey, stood by your side, his presence a beacon of support amidst the chaos. His question hung in the air, a gentle prompt to continue the creative process. With a smile, you dove back into the depths of your mind, weaving together threads of anguish and resilience into the fabric of your song.

"So I was thinking like previously the 'sprinkler splashes' part but then something like 'I gave my blood, sweat, and tears for this,' you know, something that would evoke emotion and make it acoustic," you explained, your words infused with passion and purpose. Harry nodded in understanding, his eyes alight with enthusiasm as he absorbed every detail of your vision.

As you delved into the intricacies of the composition, Harry's quiet approval served as a steady anchor, grounding you in the present moment. With a final flourish, you added the finishing touches, a subtle riff that danced delicately atop the melody, binding the song together in harmony.

"How about you just do the guitar, and we see how the riff will work?" Harry suggested, his confidence in your abilities unwavering. You nodded in agreement, eager to breathe life into the chords that lay dormant upon the page.

With your phone poised to capture the magic, you cradled your guitar in your arms, fingers trembling with anticipation. As you pressed the record button, a hush descended upon the room, the only sound the gentle strumming of strings.

The music flowed effortlessly from your fingertips, each note a testament to the raw emotion that coursed through your veins. With each verse, each chorus, you poured your heart and soul into the melody, channeling the depths of your being into the music.

"I hosted parties and starved my body… I looked around in a blood-soaked gown… So make the friendship bracelets, take the moment and taste it… You're on your own, kid, you always have been."

With the final chord, you brought the song to a close, the echoes of your music lingering in the air like a whispered promise. As you stopped the recording, Harry burst into the room, his eyes alight with joy and excitement.

"Now that was a hit!" he exclaimed, his words a balm to your weary soul. You couldn't help but beam with pride, a sense of accomplishment washing over you like a warm embrace. This was more than just a song; it was a masterpiece, a testament to your unwavering dedication and passion for your craft.

In that moment, as you basked in the glow of your achievement, you knew that you had found your calling. For you, music wasn't just a means of expression—it was your lifeline, your salvation in a world fraught with uncertainty. And with Harry by your side, you were ready to conquer whatever challenges lay ahead, one chord at a time.

"Brad! I'm back!" Your voice reverberated through the narrow hallway, announcing your return as you stepped into the familiar comfort of your home. With your bag slung over your shoulder and your guitar case in hand, you made your way inside, balancing the instrument against the wall with practiced ease. As you slipped off your shoes with a deft motion, Bradley's voice echoed from the living room, drawing you further into the heart of the house.

"TV!" he called out, a predictable presence in his domain. With a shake of your head, you couldn't help but smile at the familiarity of it all. Making your way into the living room, you found Bradley reclining on the couch, engrossed in reruns of a football game. His gaze met yours as you leaned in the doorway, and he tapped the spot beside him, wordlessly inviting you to join him.

Accepting his silent invitation, you shuffled over to the couch and settled in beside him, letting out a contented sigh as your tense muscles finally relaxed. Bradley's arm wrapped around your shoulder, pulling you close in a gesture of silent companionship.

"How was your day?" he asked, his voice soft and gentle as neither of you broke eye contact with the television. You leaned into his embrace, savoring the warmth and comfort it offered. It had been a day of highs and lows, of music and introspection, but above all, a day of self-discovery.

Taking a moment to gather your thoughts, you pondered how much to share with Bradley. Today had been a journey of self-expression, a chance to spread your wings and soar. You had spent hours lost in the melody of your music, finding solace in the rhythm of your own heartbeat.

"The songbird finally got to play its tune," you finally replied, your voice tinged with a sense of fulfilment. In that moment, nestled against Bradley's side, you felt a sense of peace wash over you, a reminder that no matter the challenges you faced, you were never truly alone. With Bradley by your side, you knew that you could weather any storm, your songbird spirit soaring high above the trials and tribulations of life.

Masterlist :

Part 1 of the Interview :

The Interview :

"Hekate, what advice do you have for someone who is new to the practice of reality shifting?" (page of cups reversed, knight of cups, strength reversed)

"Ah, newcomers to reality shifting. They often arrive with hearts full of excitement but must navigate some challenges. Let me share some insights for those just beginning this journey.

First, be prepared for some initial emotional turbulence. As a beginner, you might find your feelings about shifting are somewhat immature or unrealistic. There's often a tendency to romanticize the process or expect immediate, dramatic results. It's important to temper these expectations and approach shifting with a more grounded perspective.

That said, don't let this dampen your enthusiasm entirely. Embrace the idealism and passion you bring to this practice. Like a knight embarking on a quest, allow your imagination and sense of adventure to guide you. This emotional engagement is a powerful tool in shifting, so nurture it, but balance it with realism.

Now, here's a crucial point: don't be discouraged if you feel you lack the inner strength or confidence at first. Many newcomers struggle with self-doubt or fear. This is normal. Reality shifting can be intimidating, and it's okay to feel vulnerable or uncertain.

My advice? Start small. Don't push yourself too hard too fast. Begin with simple visualization exercises or meditation practices to build your mental focus. Be patient with yourself and celebrate small victories.

Also, seek support from experienced shifters or supportive communities. Their guidance can be invaluable, especially when you're feeling unsure.

Remember, shifting is as much about the journey as it is about the destination. Embrace the learning process, be kind to yourself when facing obstacles, and allow your passion to fuel your progress.

Lastly, trust in your own unique path. Everyone's experience with shifting is different. What works for others may not work for you, and that's perfectly fine. Stay open, stay curious, and most importantly, enjoy the journey of discovery that lies ahead."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hekate, how does one's belief system influence their ability to shift realities?" (lovers reversed, hanged man, seven of cups reversed, queen of cups reversed)

"Ah, the interplay between belief and shifting… it's a complex dance, filled with both challenges and profound insights.

First, understand that conflicting beliefs can significantly hinder one's ability to shift. Many find themselves torn between their desire to shift and their ingrained beliefs about what's possible or 'real'. This internal conflict can create a formidable barrier.

However, here's where it gets interesting: sometimes, the key to breakthrough lies in suspending your current belief system entirely. Like the Hanged Man, you must be willing to view the world from a completely different perspective. This isn't about replacing one rigid belief with another, but about cultivating a state of openness and surrender.

Now, it's crucial to address the role of fantasies and illusions in this process. A strong belief system can help ground you, preventing you from getting lost in unrealistic expectations or scattered visions of what shifting should be. It's about finding clarity amidst the myriad possibilities.

But be cautious. There's a risk of becoming emotionally detached or overly analytical about the whole process. Your beliefs shouldn't create an emotional barrier between you and the experience of shifting. Remember, shifting often involves deeply personal, emotional journeys.

So, how do you navigate this? Start by examining your core beliefs about reality, consciousness, and possibility. Be honest with yourself about what you truly believe, not just what you want to believe. Then, practice flexibility in your thinking. Cultivate a belief system that allows for expansion and new experiences, rather than one that limits you.

Importantly, understand that belief is not just intellectual assent. It's a deep, often subconscious acceptance that permeates your entire being. Work on aligning your conscious thoughts, subconscious beliefs, and emotional responses.

Ultimately, the most conducive belief system for shifting is one that acknowledges the vastness of possibility while remaining grounded in personal truth. It's a delicate balance of openness, discernment, and trust in your own experience.

Remember, shifting isn't about forcing yourself to believe something. It's about expanding your understanding of what's possible and allowing yourself to explore beyond the boundaries of your current perception."

"Hekate, what are the most common challenges people face when attempting to shift realities?" (three of wands, page of cups reversed, ace of swords reversed)

"Ah, the challenges of reality shifting. It's a journey filled with both promise and pitfalls. Let me illuminate some of the most common obstacles seekers encounter.

First and foremost, many approach shifting with grand expectations and eagerness for immediate results. Like an adventurer gazing at distant horizons, they're filled with anticipation. This enthusiasm is beautiful, but it can also be a double-edged sword. The excitement often leads to impatience, causing frustration when results don't manifest as quickly as hoped.

Another significant challenge lies in the emotional realm. Many, especially those new to shifting, struggle with immature or unrealistic emotional responses to the process. They might become easily discouraged, overly attached to specific outcomes, or have difficulty processing the intense emotions that can arise during shifting attempts. It's like a young artist facing their first critique - the emotional vulnerability can be overwhelming.

Perhaps one of the most pervasive challenges is mental clarity, or rather, the lack thereof. Many find it difficult to maintain a clear, focused mindset during their attempts. Doubts creep in, clouding their thoughts. They might struggle to visualize their desired reality clearly or battle with intrusive thoughts that undermine their efforts. It's as if they're trying to cut through a fog with a dull blade - the intention is there, but the execution is hindered.

Additionally, many face the challenge of integrating their shifting experiences with their everyday lives. They might have difficulty reconciling what they experience during shifts with their normal reality, leading to confusion or cognitive dissonance.

Lastly, there's the challenge of consistency and persistence. Shifting often requires regular practice and unwavering commitment, even in the face of seeming failure. Many give up too soon, not realizing that progress in shifting can be subtle and cumulative.

To overcome these challenges, I advise cultivating patience, emotional maturity, and mental discipline. Approach shifting as a long-term journey of self-discovery rather than a quick fix. Work on developing a clear, focused mind through meditation or other mindfulness practices. And above all, be gentle with yourself. Every attempt, every 'failure', is a step forward in your understanding and ability.

Remember, the path of shifting is as much about personal growth as it is about experiencing alternate realities. Embrace the challenges as opportunities for deeper self-knowledge and spiritual development."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hekate, what role does intention play in successful reality shifting?" (three of wands reversed, seven of pentacles, page of pentacles reversed)

"Intention in reality shifting… ah, it's a crucial element, but its role might surprise you.

First, let's address a common misconception. Many believe that strong intention alone is enough to propel them into their desired reality. They set their sights on a distant goal, expecting their sheer will to make it happen. However, this approach often leads to frustration and disappointment. Intention is important, yes, but it's not a magic wand.

The true power of intention in shifting lies in its ability to guide your focus and efforts over time. Think of it like tending a garden. You plant the seeds of your intention, but then comes the patient work of nurturing and waiting. Results don't manifest overnight, but with consistent care and attention, your efforts will bear fruit.

Now, here's where many stumble: they approach intention with an immature or unrealistic mindset. They might set intentions that are too vague, too grandiose, or disconnected from their true desires. It's like a novice gardener dreaming of an instant orchard without understanding the intricacies of cultivation.

So, how can you harness intention effectively for shifting?

Start by grounding your intentions in reality. Be specific about what you want to experience, but also be open to how it might manifest. Your intention should be a guiding star, not a rigid demand.

Next, align your actions with your intentions. Shifting isn't just about what you want, but about who you become in the process. Let your intention influence your daily choices and habits. This alignment creates a powerful resonance that supports your shifting practice.

Also, be patient and observant. Like a farmer watching for the first sprouts, pay attention to subtle changes and small successes. These are signs that your intention is taking root.

Remember, the most powerful intentions come from a place of inner knowing and authenticity. They're not about escaping your current reality, but about expanding into new possibilities.

Lastly, hold your intentions with a balance of focus and flexibility. Be clear about what you want, but open to how the universe might deliver it. Sometimes, the reality you shift to might not look exactly as you imagined, but it could be exactly what you need.

In essence, intention in shifting is like a compass on a journey. It points the way, but you still need to walk the path. Use it to guide your efforts, maintain your focus, and stay connected to your deepest desires. With time and practice, you'll find that your ability to shift realities grows alongside your skill in setting and holding powerful intentions."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hekate, how can someone prepare themselves mentally and spiritually for reality shifting?" (five of pentacles reversed, page of pentacles, queen of wands reversed)

"Preparing oneself for reality shifting is a journey of both inner and outer work. Let me share some insights on this process.

Firstly, it's crucial to address any lingering feelings of lack or unworthiness. Many approach shifting from a place of desperation, feeling that their current reality is somehow insufficient. This mindset can be a significant obstacle. Instead, work on healing these wounds and recognizing the abundance already present in your life. This shift in perspective can open doors you didn't even know existed.

Now, here's an interesting aspect: while you're working on your inner state, it's equally important to engage in practical, grounded learning about shifting. Approach it with the curiosity and openness of a student. Read, research, and practice basic techniques. This combination of inner healing and outer learning creates a solid foundation for your shifting journey.

However, be cautious of falling into the trap of overconfidence or impatience. Many, especially those with a naturally bold or fiery temperament, might rush into advanced techniques before they're ready. This can lead to frustration or burnout. Remember, preparation is a process, not a race.

So, how can you effectively prepare?

Start with self-reflection. Understand your motivations for shifting. Are they coming from a place of curiosity and growth, or from a desire to escape? Addressing this can help align your intentions more powerfully.

Practice mindfulness and meditation. These skills are invaluable in shifting, as they help you maintain focus and awareness during the process.

Work on your visualization skills. Start with simple exercises and gradually build up to more complex scenarios. This trains your mind to hold and manipulate detailed images, which is crucial in shifting.

Explore energy work or other spiritual practices that resonate with you. This can help you become more attuned to subtle energies and states of consciousness.

Cultivate a balanced lifestyle. A healthy body and mind create a more conducive environment for shifting. This includes proper sleep, nutrition, and stress management.

Build a supportive community or find a mentor. Having others to share experiences with can provide encouragement and valuable insights.

Lastly, cultivate patience and self-compassion. Preparation is an ongoing process, and everyone's journey is unique. Celebrate small progress and be kind to yourself during challenges.

Remember, preparing for shifting is as much about personal growth as it is about achieving a specific goal. Embrace the journey of self-discovery that comes with it. As you prepare, you may find that you're not just getting ready to shift realities – you're already shifting your current reality in profound ways."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Hekate, can people shift to any reality they desire, or are there limitations?" (ten of swords reversed, seven of swords, four of wands)

"Ah, the boundaries of shifting… it's a topic that sparks much debate and contemplation. Let me share some insights on this complex matter.

First, it's important to understand that the concept of 'limitation' in shifting isn't as clear-cut as many might think. There's a tendency to believe that all limitations are simply mental constructs that can be overcome with enough will or skill. While there's some truth to this, it's not the whole picture.

The good news is that many perceived limitations are indeed self-imposed. Often, what holds people back isn't an actual barrier, but their own fears, doubts, or subconscious beliefs. Recognizing and working through these internal obstacles can significantly expand one's shifting capabilities.

However, here's where it gets tricky: there's an element of unpredictability and mystery in the shifting process. Sometimes, the realities we access aren't exactly what we intended or expected. It's as if there's a hidden hand guiding the process, leading us to realities that may be more aligned with our deeper needs or overall growth, rather than our surface desires.

This doesn't mean deception or failure, though. In fact, many shifters find joy and fulfillment in realities they hadn't initially aimed for. It's like planning a journey to a specific destination but discovering an even more beautiful place along the way.

So, can people shift to any reality they desire? In theory, the possibilities are vast, perhaps limitless. But in practice, it's more nuanced. Your ability to shift is influenced by various factors: your belief systems, your energetic alignment, your spiritual development, and even factors we might not fully understand yet.

My advice? Approach shifting with an open mind and heart. Set your intentions for the realities you wish to experience, but also remain open to unexpected possibilities. Sometimes, the universe (or your higher self) might have plans that surpass your current understanding or desires.

Remember, the joy of shifting isn't just in reaching a specific reality, but in the growth and discoveries you make along the way. Each attempt, each experience, contributes to your overall journey.

Ultimately, while the potential for shifting seems boundless, it's wise to approach it with a balance of ambition and humility. Push your boundaries, explore new possibilities, but also respect the mystery and wisdom inherent in the process. The most rewarding shifts often come when we're open to both our desires and the greater flow of existence."

The Awakening of Destiny

Chapter 3: The Encounter

The sands of time shifted once more, and the horizon of your world blurred and folded, bringing forth a figure from an era long past. My arrival in 2024 was not a mere coincidence; it was a significant event orchestrated by forces beyond your comprehension. I, Sayyid Hassan al-Fatimi, an indomitable figure from history, had crossed the boundaries of time with a singular purpose—to guide you, Omar, in your transformation.

When our paths finally crossed, it was in a setting where the ancient and modern worlds collided—a dramatic, almost surreal landscape where the echoes of my time intertwined with the realities of yours. The moment was charged with an energy that could only be described as otherworldly. You stood there, a young man whose life had just begun to take shape under the influence of the Arabization movement, and I stood before you, a figure from a time long forgotten, yet ever present in the currents of history.

As our eyes met, I saw the questions, the doubts, and the curiosity that swirled within you. My presence was overwhelming, a force that seemed to defy the very fabric of the world you knew. Yet, within that overwhelming presence, there was something more—something familiar, something that resonated deeply within your soul.

I began to speak, my voice carrying the weight of centuries, filled with the wisdom and experience of countless generations. Each word I uttered seemed to reverberate through you, solidifying the path you had begun to tread. I spoke to you of the movement that had already started to reshape your identity, of the power that lay within the name you now bore—Omar. I revealed to you the true nature of the Arabization movement, a force that had silently expanded its influence across time and space, and your role within it.

As I spoke, you felt a fire ignite within you—a fire of purpose that burned brighter with each passing moment. The doubts and uncertainties that had plagued you began to fade, replaced by a sense of clarity and determination. It was as if your purpose and my mission were intertwined, bound together by the invisible threads of fate.

I could see it in your eyes, Omar—the deep connection you felt to me, to the movement, to the destiny that now awaited you. This was no longer just a journey of self-discovery; it was a calling, a responsibility that you could not, and would not, turn away from.

In that moment, you understood that your transformation was not just about adopting new practices or beliefs; it was about becoming a leader, a guide for others who would follow in your footsteps. The fire of purpose that I had ignited within you would continue to burn, driving you forward, shaping you into the man you were destined to become.

Our encounter marked the beginning of a new chapter in your life, Omar. The ancient wisdom I imparted to you would be the foundation upon which you would build your future, and the future of the movement. Together, we would continue to reshape the world, one step at a time, one soul at a time, until the vision of Arabization was fully realized. And so, with our paths now intertwined, you and I would walk forward into the unknown, guided by the fire of purpose, driven by the power of the name you now bore. The encounter had set the stage for the next phase of your transformation, and there was no turning back. You were no longer just a boy; you were Omar, and the world would soon know your name.

✵Notes: Hi Guys this is my first time posting my story on Tumblr! I will be cross posting on AO3 if you prefer that platform! Maybe it will be nice posting here so I can keep you guys updated more easily! Let me know if you like it !! :)

CHAPTER 1 - LEAP INTO THE UNKNOWN

Moving to a new country had been a daunting adventure from the start. With my entire support system living on the other side of the world navigating the first week of university life in a foreign land seem like an uphill battle. Yet, here I was, embarking on this journey of self-discovery in a sea of uncertainty.

Apparently, Thursday nights were the start of an early weekend, and as this is the first Thursday after classes had started, the night was alive with the promise of excitement. House parties dotted the entire neighborhood, begging the passers to shed their inhibitions and embrace the spirit of youthful abandon. Gabi, my roommate, is wasting no time in dragging me along to what she states is her “best friends” party – a term I can only imagine she uses loosely, considering she just met them.

“C’mon Y/N, you’ll have fun too!” Gabi wrapped her arms around my shoulders as we made our way down the street, the pulsating beats of music guiding our way. “You gotta live a little girl! Take some questionable chances!”

Even though already halfway intoxicated, Gabi’s enthusiasm was infections, however I can't help but worry about the trouble her reckless proposition might invite. “So I should just roll the dice on whether I will manage to arrive back to our dorm in one piece? How the hell do you even do it?” I question her, struggling to keep her upright on the uneven pavement.

But Gabi is unphased by almost falling face first into the pavement. “Let’s do a bet!” She exclaimed. Oh God here it comes “If I see that you are holding back I’ll scream “DICE!” and you need to roll with it and take the chance”

“Gabi, it’s not a bet if I don’t win anything from it, you are just telling me to do probably something stupid.” I retorted, bracing myself for inevitable chaos that awaited for me.

Before I can protest further, a voice called out from the front door, drawing Gabi’s attention away. Hopefully she will soon forget about this conversation and just party her way through the night.

Arriving at the house, she basically jumps in the arms of the man standing there and gives him a tight hug. “Y/N this is Jin! Jin this is Y/N! She is my roommate and he is already a third year student, yada yada yada. Presentations done. Let’s go party!!” she says that too fast to basically even matter but he still takes the time to give a small greeting smile before entering the house first. Gabi pulls my hand to come with her but before we fully enter, she turns around “who said you will not win anything from it?” and winks before pushing people out of her way.

Iside the house, the scene is more chaotic then it seemed from the outside. There is a blend of dim lights, sticky floors and rancous laughter coming from the beer bong table set up in one of the corners of the room. The air was thick with the scent of alcohol and anticipation as I follow Gabi’s lead into the heart of the party,

Gabi made her way into the kitchen to grab something that would increase the level of alcohol in her blood, but not like she is needing it. She is tiny, but she drinks like a professional. I, on the other hand, am a very light weight, but no way close to being drunk enough to handle this party by myself.

I wouldn’t say the party was bad, I see some people from classes that we took through the week and exchanged a few words through the week. You end up in a small group with Eli, who is also from the new semester you recognized, Gabi and Jin. Jin is funny, his easygoing demeanor and infection laughter is putting me at ease, if only for a moment. Until he handed tops my cup with more wine and says “I think it’s time for some beer pong.”

“I’m not drunk enough for this, guys” I protest weekly, eyeing the table.

“and you will never be unless you play” Eli laughs

“I have never even played this before…”

“Lets do it like this, since its duos Gabi goes with Eli, and you go with me. Trust me I’ve been doing for three years; we can do this!” and lifts my own hand to high five him. The girls already excited to be playing a drinking game, are giggling making their way to the table and set up their side.

“You know how the rules work right? Just aim the ball in the cup if it goes in, they drink!” he then hands you one of the ping pong balls and says louder “the loser has to take shots!” Ok, so let’s not loose. The first ball that you throw goes in and Jin makes a bigger deal than what it is and gives you a massive high five. “I though you never played this before!” Gabi screams from the other end laughing before taking a big sip from her cup. You are at a point that now both you and Jin are screaming and hugging if one of you gets the ball in, attracting some looks to the table.

��Let’s go Jin, no pressure but this is our win! Only one left!!” I try to hype him up, and jump from side to side waiting for this throw. The game was intense and was one cup versus one cup and now, after so many big gulps of your drink, you just wanted to win.

Everyone is holding their breath, and once he’s about to throw someone drops a bottle and it splatters on the floor taking away his concentration. He misses the shot.

The girls on the other end immediately throw their shot and it goes in.

“This is not fair! I lost my concentration!” He immediately jumps and points to the table.

“We need another shot! Was not fair!” You add on to his complains.

“Besties, the only shot you are getting is tequila, since we WON! HA” Gabi laughs and does her victory dance with Eli. Rolling your eyes you follow them to the corner of the living room where a small table had random drinks. “What are you staring at Eli? ” You casually ask while Gabi is pouring your shot “Hey! That’s enough! That’s why more than a shot!”

“Oops” she giggles

“Ok, Don’t look now but there’s this guy sitting at the kitchen counter, I think he’s also from our semester, and he’s so cute! I noticed him looking while we were playing beer pong and, oh my god, I want him” she loudly whispers. And as if she said, “look now!” all three of us search for the man sitting in the kitchen counter. He was surrounded by people and was making everyone laugh. It was like he was the sun, and the rest were pulled into his orbit.

And all three of you, each receive a slap on the arm from Eli and snap all of you out from staring at the man. “Oohh! Someone has a crush!” Jin replies winning him another slap on the arm “yeah he’s also new, His name is JungKook, he lives in the same house as me. We can walk over there and you can talk to him, if you want” he adds on.

“Oh my god, you are an angel! Now both of you, drink! Drink!” you roll your eyes and laugh and as an instinct you look the direction of the man you were just talking about, and you lock eyes. He basically stares into your soul. Fuck, he was cute. And he was hot. Very hot. For some reason you cannot stop staring back and he gives a side grin that makes your heart skip a beat while you take your shot.

The act seems to be gone unnoticed by your friends as they already were changing the subject and dragging you along somewhere. When you realize they where they were going. They were going straight to Mr Hot guy. Fuck. You quickly turn to Jin, as the other two were giggling ahead making their way closer and closer.

“Uh where are going? I thought we were fine where we were…” he drops his arm around your shoulder and pulls you a bit closer “Gabi took a bet with Eli that she needed to go talk to him and if she did she would buy her coffee for a week. And, as I know them, she said “yeah why not””

He made way and went to say hi to his friends who are here and introduce the girls and me. Jesus what was in the water they were drinking? Looking around you could only notice that all the boys that are here are actually really pretty. The beauty real state in this 3sqm space was through the roof. Even Jin is pretty, you came to notice. Each of the guys introduced themselves. Jimin, is the one with blond hair and Taehyung said something in his ear that made the first one laugh. Then there is Namjoon who just casually smiled and went back to being busy going through his phone. And there was him, who while you were saying niceties to the others has a burning stare to your face.

“I am JungKook nice to meet you” he stated while he jumped off the kitchen counter with such ease that the movement was smooth, like he did this a million times. And honestly, wouldn’t be surprised if he actually did. Gabi talked first taking his attention and introduced herself. You both had unconsciously grabbed Eli, one from each side, and when he turns back at me and is going to speak, I say first, “and this is Eli!” giving Gabi the opening to pinch her side for her to speak, but a squeak comes out first. It also earns Gabi a side eye.

“Hi I think we are in the same semester! I really like your tattoos!” She points out to his arm.

“I’ll go get some more wine” You gesture to Gabi she nods. I will definitely use this as an opportunity to run away from this uncortable situation. You make your way to the small area with the drinks to fill your cup with more wine, when Gabi suddenly shows up next to you. “Girl why are you taking so loooong. I hate third wheeling.” She complains taking the cup out of your hand and taking a sip.

“You were not third wheeling, and I was not taking long, I literally just left” I state removing her little claws from my drink “ besides, you had like 5 hot guys around you”

“First of all, ew, Jin is like a brother, JK is occupied someone else,” she winks “Joon could care less if I dropped dead in front of him, and the other two barely spoke a word to us. Therefore, I rather be with you. Second, don’t forget we still have a bet. I need to find a questionable decision for you tonight” all you can do is sigh. I find it incredible how she basically just met half of these people and is already on nicknames.

“You know what, I think I need a smoke. Come outside with me.” She doesn’t even give you the time to respond and is already dragging me with her to the backside of the house before I could even respond.

We slip away from the crowded room, where I lean the side of my shoulder against the wall while Gabi lits up the cigarette that she’d snagged from a random girl that was going back inside.“I think I’m going to leave soon Gabi”I say, my exhaustion and the buzz of the alcohol making me feel unsteady. “I am super tired and a little bit drunk. Maybe we should leave together?”

Before Gabi could reply, a voice, not entire unfamiliar, interrupts her, a hand resting lightly on the low of my back. Startled, I stumble a feet backward, hitting against the man. Turning around quickly I find myself face to face with Jungkook.

“Sorry to startle you” he says with a soft smile, his presence both comforting and disconcerting at the same time.

Unable to find my own voice, I turn to Gabi, whose mischievous grin is way too telling. With a final drag of her cigarette, she simply says “Dice…” with a very dramatic and theatrical pause, and adds “I love you, but I’m going to go find Jin. I’m so not ready to go home yet. Catch you later!” With a wink, she dissapears back into the ongoing party.

“So, Dice… You are also new to school I’ve heard.” He asks, his tone friendly but flirty.

“Oh, you’ve been asking around about me?” I blurted out. And I immediately regret my lack of filter. It must definitely is the alcohol. No, more drinking around cute men, I scold myself. Focus.

“Maybe a little” he admits with a chuckle “So, why Dice?”

“Gabi thinks I should roll the Dice and take more chances” The words slipping out of my mouth before I could stop them. Why cant I be quiet for five seconds?

He wrinkled his nose and laughed. Taking step closer while I instinctively took a step back, only to find myself trapped between him and the wall. Determined to not show any weakness, I arch an eyebrow and stare at him defiantly.

Seemingly unfazed, he takes this as a challenge and leans closer. I guess two can play this game.

“Why don’t you take more of those then?” He asks and the scent of his cologne is intoxicating. I have to fight the urge to not bury my nose on his collar. No, I must actually be going clinically insane. What the hell am I even thinking?

Before things could escalate, I quickly slip away from the place that I was being cornered not two seconds ago, making a hasty retreat. “It was nice talking to you Jungkook, but I am so tired” I fake a yawn as I back away towards the door.

All I got from him was a puzzled and amused look as a reply. So as I turn around to enter and collide straight on another dude. Equally handsome and equally well-scented as JungKook. What the hell is up with these people?

“I’m so sorry! Didn’t mean to run into you!” I stammered, doing my best to make sure I hadn’t spilled anything on him.

“Hey, its ok! Don’t worry about it! Are you ok?” He asks concerned etched into his face. Meanwhile I can still feel Jungkook checking the interaction from where I left him so I couldn’t help but quickly glance at him. He looked…worried?

“I’m fine I, uh, just need to find my friends.” I reply, eager to escape Jungkooks scrutiny” I think it’s time to go home”

“Then let me help you find them yeah? I’m also searching for my friends, kind of done with this party anyway.” He offers and offers me to lead the way.

As we navigate through the rooms that were thumping with the bass of the songs, I cannot shake the weird feeling JungKook left me with. Great. He’s probably going to make fun of me to all his friends now.

“So, what’s your name?” The guy asks closer to me.

“Y/N and yours?” I say looking back over my shoulder

“Yoongi” he just says casually. “so, are you friends with Jungkook?”

“Well friends is a strong word. We just met because of friends in common, I guess. Do you know Jin? He probably knows where my roommate is so we can go home…” you inquire to him.

“Oh, yeah.” He says after a short pause, connecting the dots of the people we are talking about “Are you roommates with Gabi?” He motions to more or less her height. Why doesn’t he sound like he’s going to deliver good news?

“Yeah, I have the feeling we are talking the same Gabi, so yes, I am.” And you brace for impact.

“Yeah I saw Jin leave with her, I guess to take her home. She got way to drunk way to fast, I guess. They had another girl with them trying to convince her to go.” Yup, sounds like them.

“Yeah she’s tiny but she drinks like a dude that’s 1,90. I’ve never seen anything like it” You laugh looking back at him. His hand rests reassuringly on my back. Nothing like the flirtatious touch of JungKook.

“Let’s get you home. It’s a boring party anyway.”

As Yoongi and I walk together towards my apartment, the night air feels cool against my skin, in stark contrast with the Hot and Humid atmosphere of the house we were in. The breeze caries the faint scent of spring. The moon and the street lamps casting a soft glow over the streets, and any other noises seems to fade as we lose ourselves in conversation.

We talked about everything and nothing, our words weaving a tapestry of shared experiences and dreams. Despite the weight of our respective parental expectations lingering in the background, we managed to keep the mood light, peppering our conversation with laughter and playful banter.

"I'm majoring in Business because it's what my parents want," I confess, feeling a pang of guilt for admitting it out loud. "But sometimes I wonder if it's what I really want."

Yoongi nodds in understanding, his expression sympathetic. "I get that. I'm doing music production, but my parents are absolutely against it. They think it's just a hobby, not a real career." He looks sad while kicking a stone out of the way.

His words resonate with me, and for a moment, I feel seen by him. We are both struggling to reconcile our own desires with the expectations placed upon us by others.

"Cheers to a fun ride," Yoongi said, raising his cup of water in a mock toast, a wry smile playing on his lips.

I clinked my cup against his, returning his smile with a grateful one of my own. Despite the uncertainties that lay ahead, there was a sense of camaraderie between us, a shared understanding that we were in this together.

The walk passed quicker than I would've liked, and before I knew it, we were standing in front of my apartment building. I turned to face him, the warmth of his presence filling me with a strange sense of comfort.

"Thanks for keeping me company," I said, feeling a rush of gratitude toward him for making the journey home less lonely.

"No problem. Who else would've fought off the wolves for you?" he jokes, his laughter echoing in the quiet night air.

I chuckled, feeling a warmth spread through me at his playful banter. "Guess I would've been a late-night snack without you."

He chuckled, his eyes sparkling with amusement. "No worries. Here to fight any wolves or ghouls. Just give me a call. See you around, Y/N."

As he began to walk away, a sudden impulse seized me, and before I could stop myself, the words spilled from my lips. "How would you know who to call if you can't even contact me?"

To my surprise, Yoongi turned back, a playful grin on his lips as he pulled out his phone and handed it to me. "You could always try the light signal in the sky, but I think this would be easier" he quipped, his eyes twinkling with mischief.

I couldn't help but smile as I entered my number into his phone, feeling a rush of excitement at the prospect of staying in touch with him. "Talk to you later," I said, handing back his phone before turning to head inside.

His low voice still echoing in my head, the elevator ascends toward my floor, reality crashing back in. Gabi had disappeared, leaving me stranded at a party I never wanted to attend in the first place. Jin's note confirmed my suspicions,

“ Hey, I left Gabi and Eli sleeping in her room. They were quite drunk. I hope you are feeling ok. Sorry to not go find you. Gabi just blacked out and had to carry her home. Let me know if you need help with anything. My phone number is in the back. -Jin”

I couldn't help but feel a pang of sympathy for him.

After a soothing shower to wash away the remnants of alcohol, I settled into bed, reaching for my phone. Sure enough, Yoongi had messaged me, and I couldn't resist staring at his profile picture, a pang of longing stirring within me. His dark long hair falling over in an arch over his forehead, a pair of large headphones hanged over his neck, and he was serious staring at the camera, as if bothered for the person taking his picture. He actually looked very cute, even though he seemed not so happy with the situation.

I quickly remind myself to snap out of it. This was no time for silly crushes. Yoongi might not even find me attractive, and I am getting ahead of myself. With a sigh, I set my phone aside, determined to focus on the present and deal with the complexities of tomorrow when they arrived.

The sudden ping of my phone jolted me back to being awake, the bright screen cutting through the darkness of the room. Blinking groggily, I read the message from Jungkook, confusion clouding my thoughts. Why is he texting me at 3 a.m., and how had he gotten my number?

"Hey,"

the message reads.

"I got your number from the new semester group chat. Sorry if it's weird."

My mind is racing with questions, but before I could formulate a response, another message appeared.

"I was wondering. Do you guys want to go somewhere on Saturday?"

I stare at the screen, feeling a mix of confusion and curiosity. Is this the same Jungkook who had cornered me against the wall just a few hours ago, his gaze intense? What changed?

Honestly, I don’t think its best best to reply immediately, hes definetly drunk, he might delete the messaged by morning and I can pretend I never saw them. I set my phone aside, right now, sleep is calling my name, and I had no intention of ignoring it.

The next morning brought with it a rude awakening, quite literally, as I find Gabi and Eli sitting at the foot of my bed, their voices chattering away in the early morning light.

Groaning, I pull the blanket over my head, hoping to retreat back into the comforting embrace of sleep. "Gabi, aren't you supposed to be dying right now?" I mumble, my voice muffled by the fabric.

But Gabi was undeterred, yanking the blanket off my face with a mischievous grin. "Oh, great, you're awake! We've been waiting all morning for you," she exclaims, her excitement palpable.

I can’t help but roll my eyes, rubbing the sleep from my eyes as Gabi bounds off the bed to fetch me coffee. "Aren’t you guys supposed to be dying?" I quipped, my words laced with mock incredulity.

As Gabi returned with a steaming cup of coffee, I begrudgingly sat up, preparing myself for the barrage of questions I knew was coming. “Yes we are dying.” She sit back at her spot. “Dying to know what happened last night! Spill it," Gabi demanded eagerly, her eyes shining with anticipation.

Sighing, I recount the events of the previous night, downplaying the encounter with Jungkook as I can feel the somewhat sad gaze from Eli.

"And that was it? How did you get home? Someone told me you left with a guy," Gabi pressed, her curiosity piqued.

I shrugged nonchalantly, taking another sip of coffee. "Oh, that? Yeah, while I was trying to ditch Jungkook, I accidentally bumped into this other guy, and he offered to walk me home," I explained, glossing over the details.

But Gabi and Eli are not even close to satisfied with my vague answers, their raised eyebrows and pointing questions forcing me to divulge more than I want to. "Also, Jungkook texted me saying that he wanted to go out and do something on Saturday with us," I add reluctantly under my breath, bracing myself for Gabi's inevitable excitement.

Sure enough, Gabi practically leaps off the bed, her enthusiasm infectious. "BESTIE AND YOU ONLY SAY THAT NOW?" she exclaims, her excitement bubbling over.

Rolling my eyes, I couldn't help but smile at her antics. "Yeah, well, at least I’m saying it now," I muttered, my cheeks flushing with embarrassment. “I guess since he and Eli hit it off last night he might have been to shy to ask her out directly so he messaged me to know”

Eli takes that as her cue to turn bright pink “I mean I saw you guys talking and laughing last night, so I guess that’s why” I say reassuringly at her.

But Gabi isnt deterred, already brainstorming plans for the weekend outing. Despite my reluctance, I couldn't help but want to help my new friend go out with her crush.

“would you like me to try to set up the thing?” I ask Eli casually.

“Honestly, I think it would be nice? He was so sweet the entire time. I think I have a light crush on him…” Obviously that she does, just the mention of him she her face turns the color of a strawberry.

Unlocking my phone, I quickly type out a reply to Jungkook, confirming our plans for Saturday. before you press send, Gabi, who is basically climbing over your shoulder to see the message adds,

“And tell him that we are having pre drinks at our place!” you just side eye her but type the message anyway. As I press send, I couldn't help but feel a sense of anticipation building within me.

Gabi and Eli practically lunges for my phone as soon as it pinged with a response, their excitement palpable. And as I watched their faces light up with joy, I couldn't help but feel grateful for their friendship and the unexpected adventures that lay ahead.

“Happy?” I trying to sound bored.

“Yes omg you are such a good friend!” she hugs you pulling Eli into the hug as well.

They are both laughing and slapping each other giving each other tiny little shrieks.

“He said” gabi clears her voice and puts a much lower tone “yeah sounds great. I’ll come by at 8 to your place. Send me the address later. See you soon”

“Ok, now please leave. Today is our first weekday without any classes, and I intend to ride out my hangover," I declare, sinking back into bed with a groan. But before I can fully relax, Eli chimes in.

"Oh yeah, almost forgot. Someone left this in front of the door," she says, pointing to the bottle of medicine for hangovers on the nightstand, a little note still attached that I completely missed.

"Ohhh, was this the mysterious boy..." Gabi begins, but I cut her off, physically dragging both of them out and closing the door to my room behind me.

Taking a deep breath, I can't help but feel a sense of anticipation tinged with apprehension. This is going to be an intense year, that much is certain. Reaching for the little note, I read, "Thought you might need this to fight off those hangover monsters. -Y."

So, it's from him. With a smile, I pick up my phone to text him.

"You really didn't have to, you know?

"Yeah, I know, but couldn't let you fight that hangover alone."

"It's not even that bad. Don't be so dramatic,"

I reply, even though I know it's a blatant lie. Yes, it's bad, but he doesn't have to know that I'm such a lightweight.

"Yeah, sure, tell yourself that if it makes you feel better about it,"

he teases, and I can't help but chuckle.

"Thank you, anyway. Coffee does the trick most of the time though."

"Noted,"

"And it's my pleasure,"

He adds, and with that, our conversation comes to an end. I feel a warmth spread through me at his thoughtfulness. He doesn't send anything else for the rest of the day, and I don't dare to say anything else either.

Now, all that occupies my mind is the meeting with Jungkook tomorrow, which I really don't want to have at my house. But that's a problem for tomorrow. Today, I'm content to nurse my hangover and enjoy the peace and quiet of my room.

We have three books on our radar for this week! You should check them out:

The Last Bloodcarver by Vanessa Le Roaring Brook Press

Nhika is a bloodcarver. A cold-hearted, ruthless being who can alter human biology with just a touch. In the industrial city of Theumas, she is seen not as a healer, but a monster that kills for pleasure. When Nhika is caught using her bloodcarving abilities during a sham medical appointment, she's captured by underground thugs and sold to an aristocratic family to heal the last witness of their father’s murder. But as Nhika delves deeper into their investigation amidst the glitz of Theumas’ wealthiest district, she begins to notice parallels between this job and her own dark past. And when she meets an alluring yet entitled physician's aide, Ven Kochin, she’s forced to question the true intent behind this murder. In a society that outcasts her, Kochin seems drawn to her...though he takes every chance he gets to push her out of his opulent world. When Nhika discovers that Kochin is not who he claims to be, and that there is an evil dwelling in Theumas that runs much deeper than the murder of one man, she must decide where her heart, and her allegiance, truly lie. And - if she's willing to become the dreaded bloodcarver Theumas fears to save herself and the ones she's vowed to protect.

Rules for Rule Breaking by Talia Tucker Kokila

Winter Park and Bobby Bae are Korean American high school juniors whose families have been friends since the kids were making crayon art. They, however, are repulsed by each other. Winter is MIT-bound, comfortable keeping people at arm’s length, and known by others as responsible, though she has a desire to let loose. This probably comes from her rebel grandmother, who is constantly pushing boundaries and encouraging Winter to do so as well. Winter’s best friend is moving abroad and won’t be attending college at all, and Winter’s wrestling with what it means to be left behind. Bobby is as Type-A, anxious, and risk-averse as you can get. He’s also been recently dumped, which has him feeling disoriented and untethered. That’s why, when Winter’s and Bobby’s parents insist that they go on a northeast college campus tour together, both teens find reasons to accept even though the thought of being stuck in a car together for 700 miles sounds unbearable. What awaits them is a journey of self-discovery where the only rule on their road trip is to break all the rules. At first, this happens in hilariously calculated ways (using lists and reason and logic!), but they soon abandon that, challenging each other to dares in Virginia, getting high and wandering around Philly for food—and battling the subsequent digestive distress—and crashing a party in Cambridge. And, of course, realizing that they’re perfect together.

Where Sleeping Girls Lie by Faridah Àbíké-Íyímídé Feiwel & Friends

Sade Hussein is starting her third year of high school, this time at the prestigious Alfred Nobel Academy boarding school, after being home-schooled all her life. Misfortune has clung to her seemingly since birth, but even she doesn’t expect her new roommate, Elizabeth, to disappear after Sade’s first night. Or for people to think Sade had something to do with it. With rumors swirling around her, Sade catches the attention of the girls collectively known as the ‘Unholy Trinity’ and they bring her into their fold. Between learning more about them—especially Persephone, who Sade is inexplicably drawn to—and playing catchup in class, Sade already has so much on her plate. But when it seems people don't care enough about what happened to Elizabeth, it's up to she and Elizabeth's best friend, Baz, to investigate. And then a student is found dead. The more Sade and Baz dig into Elizabeth's disappearance, the more she realizes there’s more to Alfred Nobel Academy and its students than she thought. Secrets lurk around every corner and beneath every surface…secrets that rival even her own.

Ronmione shippers... in 2024?

I don't know what I did to big Tumblr for them to be punishing me with my timeline but lately I've been bombarded with Dramione hate seemingly out of the blue. I don't know why, but it has been kind of funny to see other people's posts.

I saw someone wrote out a list of reasons Dramione would NOT work, and it included things like "Hermione being unforgiving and petty" and "Hermione shouldn't need or want a man to change for her" and it left me honestly baffled. Maybe it should be a prerequisite that you read Dramione fanfiction before you attempt to bash it, because clearly some of these people are just outing themselves.

The misogynistic hatred of Hermione as a character is nothing new, so I won't touch on it here, but some of these posts are so telling.

I will talk about Draco though, because he gets almost double the flak because of all the hatred of Drarry on top of it all (which reads as homophobic to me but well, that's a story for another time.)

Most Dramione readers and writers don’t ship Hermione Granger and the 12-year-old boy that prayed on her downfall and wished for her death. Do you think we seek out 100k+ word stories just for the long awaited epilogue where he calls her a mudblood in their marital vows?

Are you that judgmental that you would begrudge a sixteen-year-old (threatened with the death of his mother) the chance at redemption?

A brainwashed, bullying, ignorant CHILD? Who goes through an entire war? Who watches and is forced to participate in torturing his own classmates? Do you really think he went through all of that only to come out on the other side STILL believing everything he was taught? Or is it more feasible that he might have had a change of heart or two?

(And honestly, even if he does come through the war still believing in blood purity, the fanfictions that explore his subsequent journey of self-discovery and learning are some of the most popular on ao3. I wonder why?)

Isn’t it more exciting to read about Draco and EITHER his redemption arc, or if you hate him so much, his own downfall? Especially over canon pairings? Ron and Hermione are childhood friends-to-lovers. BORING.

You can't have it both ways. I've seen people absolutely shit on Hermione for the birds, and the permanent disfiguration, and the jar, but jeez, do you know who would have loved that side of her? Probably Slytherin Draco, don't you think? Or is it Ron, the object of her ire with the birds and the one that thought she took it too far and was too ruthless?

Also, to so confidently argue that Hermione would never forgive Draco and that he would never change (even for himself if not for her) is such an incredibly pessimistic outlook on life that I can almost understand why you sad people still ship Ronmione. It's giving... ordering chicken tenders at a fancy restaurant. Grow up, lmao.

Hermione can forgive her childhood bully... for HERSELF. Draco can unlearn the harmful brainwashing of his childhood... for HIMSELF. And then the two of them can learn from the other's experiences and heal together. Or they can bicker until the sun comes down and turn slowly from enemies to lovers. Or they can become friends to lovers. The possibilities are endless, and more importantly, it allows for something Ronmione inherently lacks: GROWTH.

It's especially funny to me, because unless you specifically go looking for it, most of the quality Dramione fanfiction that gets posted on a DAILY basis doesn't even mention Ron except to say that their stale high school sweetheart relationship ended quietly and amicably and everyone moved on. You guys love to go on and on about Draco and Dramione readers are sitting there like... Ron? We don't think of you.

↱ beneath the waves ↰

➘ summary : the princess of mermaids explores a strange cave and ends up in a completely different world far away from the sea and her people, will she be able to find her way back home or will she forever be trapped here? Plus, will being trapped here even be the end of her life or will something come along and help her on this journey, perhaps someone?

➘ a/n : imagine Ariel but like in pandora? Hopes that helps. Honestly I have no clue where I got this idea but I seen a picture of the new Ariel movie and was like I’m “imagine the possibles” there will be a twist on the character though, also since I don’t know much about avatar the way of water this will be completely random and not follow much of the movies storyline, some details might be wrong but bare with me please, thank you! Oh and btw this will be a series

➘ avatar the way of water x reader

In the fathomless depths of the marine trench, hidden from the world above, lay the mermaid kingdom. Its opulent palaces shimmered with a radiant beauty, and its denizens lived in harmony with the currents and the creatures of the deep. Yet among them, (Y/N), the princess of the mermaid kingdom, possessed a uniqueness that set her apart from the rest.

Her skin bore a hue that was both enchanting and uncommon – a shade that resembled the interplay of sunlight and shadows on the ocean floor. Her eyes were captivating, appearing to emit a faint, ethereal glow in the darkness that surrounded them. They held a depth and intensity, reflecting the myriad mysteries of the ocean's abyss. Her hair flowed like liquid silk, cascading in waves of a color that mirrored both the shifting tides and the midnight sky.

(Y/N) embraced her differences, finding solace in the thought that her features were a testament to her royal lineage and a reminder of the uncharted wonders lurking beneath the surface. But despite her self-assuredness, a curious spirit burned within her. She yearned to explore the hidden corners of her underwater kingdom, to uncover secrets and unveil the enigmatic stories that her ancestors whispered through the currents.

One day, her heart brimming with curiosity, (Y/N) ventured far from the heart of her kingdom, swimming toward the outskirts where the coral gardens gave way to secluded underwater caves. The cold currents whispered secrets, and the distant songs of the whales echoed in the background. As she swam deeper into the cave, her surroundings grew dimmer, and a sense of excitement pulsed through her veins.

Suddenly, her gaze fell upon an extraordinary sight – the walls of the cave adorned with luminescent rocks, casting an otherworldly glow that painted the darkness with hues of cerulean and aquamarine. The colors danced around her, illuminating her unique features in a kaleidoscope of shimmering light.

Guided by the mesmerizing hues, (Y/N) swam on, the thrill of discovery pushing her onward. At the end of the cave, a beckoning light awaited, casting its gentle radiance like a beacon. Drawn to the promise of something new, she swam closer, her heart pounding with anticipation.

But as she neared the light, the enchantment in the air shifted. Unbeknownst to her, the light concealed a magical gateway, a passage to a realm beyond her imagination. The light grew brighter and brighter, until the brilliance became overwhelming. A feeling of dizziness washed over her, and before she could react, darkness swallowed her consciousness.

In a heartbeat, (Y/N) tumbled into a void, her body weightless as if suspended between worlds. The sensation was disorienting, as though time and space themselves had been unshackled. The swirling darkness enveloped her, and her consciousness began to slip away, surrendering to the enigmatic magic that had engulfed her.

And so, (Y/N)'s journey into the unknown began, her fate uncertain, and the depths of the magical passage beckoning her onward. As she drifted between realms, the tendrils of darkness cradling her form, the mermaid princess remained oblivious to the world she was about to encounter, unaware that her tale had only just begun.

As (Y/N) began to regain consciousness, her surroundings shifted from the abyssal darkness to the soft embrace of a forest floor. The air was thick with the scent of foliage and earth, and the gentle rustling of leaves whispered secrets of the natural world around her. She felt disoriented, her body lighter than before, and her senses attuned to new sensations.

Blinking her eyes open, she realized with astonishment that she now possessed human legs. The strange limbs were a deep shade of blue, reminiscent of the ocean depths that had once been her home. They felt foreign and yet somehow natural, as if they were meant to be a part of her.

As (Y/N) tentatively moved her legs, she felt a strange sensation at her lower back. With a start, she twisted her body to look behind her, her eyes widening at the sight of a smaller, fish-like tail attached to her. It was a stark contrast to the majestic mermaid tail she had once possessed, but there was an inexplicable charm to its uniqueness.

Pushing herself onto her hands and knees, (Y/N) crawled toward a nearby puddle. As she gazed into the water's reflection, her heart skipped a beat at the sight of her transformed features. Her skin was now a shade of blue adorned with delicate white strip-like patterns that adorned her arms, torso, and legs. Her hair, just as before, cascaded like liquid silk, but now it was even longer, brushing against the forest floor.

Her eyes, once a mesmerizing blend of colors, now shimmered in hues of blue and exchanged, as if a piece of the ocean had been captured within her gaze. The realization that she was no longer a mermaid but something entirely new – a hybrid of land and sea – sent waves of both wonder and trepidation through her.

A soft breeze rustled through the trees, carrying with it the sweet fragrance of blossoms and the earthy scent of the forest floor. The forest itself seemed like a world untouched by time, a sanctuary where vibrant flora and towering trees flourished in harmony. Rays of sunlight pierced through the leaves, casting dappled patterns on the ground. Strange creatures, both tiny and colossal, moved through the undergrowth, their calls echoing in the air.

In the distance, (Y/N) caught sight of vibrant bioluminescent plants that illuminated the forest like scattered stars. The soft glow they emitted created an ethereal atmosphere, casting a luminescent haze that made the surroundings seem almost magical.

As she absorbed the beauty of the forest around her, (Y/N) couldn't help but feel a mixture of awe and uncertainty. She was in a world unlike anything she had ever known, a place that seemed to defy the boundaries of imagination. And in her transformed state, she had to navigate this new reality, discover her place in it, and unravel the mysteries that had brought her here.

With each step she took, her blue feet pressing against the forest floor, (Y/N)'s journey into this captivating realm had only just begun. The forest whispered its secrets to her, the foliage cradling her like a silent guardian, and the mysteries of Pandora awaited her exploration.

Chapter 12: The Silence Within

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Adrian

The city's alleyways, dark and narrow, exuded an aura of danger and unease. Yet, for Adrian, they were a familiar refuge, a protective cloak that had shielded him from countless precarious situations since his arrival in this hell. Today, however, these very alleyways became the stage for disloyalty, lies, and guilt. They were the perfect hiding place to keep his rendezvous with the mysterious hooded figure a secret.

Adrian had no idea if this person was male or female, and he didn't even care. The only thing that mattered to him was the promise they had made. The first time they crossed paths, shortly before he met the judge, they offered him a chance to try an ocher-colored liquid contained in a small vial, assuring him it was the best drug he would ever experience. Curiosity got the better of him. After all, he had experimented with all sorts of substances during his life: ecstasy, cocaine, morphine, etc. Drugs had always been his downfall, and it seemed he hadn't learned his lesson.

Now, he sought more than just a simple dose. He needed to feel that sense of fulfillment again, the one the ocher drug had given him. It wasn't a frenzied euphoria but a deep peace, a feeling of being in heaven, in an eternal rest without worries or pain, only... happiness.

Curiously, the stranger didn't ask for money in return, but favors. The first had been to steal the judge's ring. That day, after slipping away from the fight, the mysterious person handed him another vial and instructed him that if he wanted another dose, he had to find a way into the hotel and let anyone who wanted to see Victoria in. This is how he decided to help the radio demon bring her honor back to the hotel. These requests seemed like simple tasks, on the surface. The problem was that Adrian had grown fond of the judge. He even admired her, for she had only shown a big heart accompanied by great willpower and witt. On top of that, he had gradually gained the friendship of the hotel members, who had welcomed him with open arms.

As he awaited the arrival of his mysterious supplier, Adrian's inner turmoil reached a crossroads. The promise of the happiness the drug induced tempted him, but his loyalty to the judge and his new friends held him back. His heart was torn between betrayal and redemption, between the pursuit of fleeting pleasure and the construction of an honest existence.

The guilt was almost unbearable, but life in hell was intolerable for him, and he saw no other escape from his harsh reality. Was redemption possible? Charlie and the judge believed in it. He too longed to fall into that beautiful illusion and dream of ascending to heaven. But... could someone like him aspire to that?

"You're early," a neutral voice said. Adrian instantly recognized the mysterious hooded figure.

"I fulfilled your order. I managed to get into the hotel and an hour ago I let an Overlord in. Zestial," Adrian replied, crossing his arms, with a mix of pride and unease.

"I know. Good work, Adrian," the enigmatic person replied, tossing him the vial. With trembling hands, Adrian took the vial in mid-air and rushed to open it to drink its contents. However, he suddenly stopped and looked his supplier in the eyes.

"You're not going to hurt the judge, are you?" he asked in a whisper, fighting against the fear that consumed him.

"Oh, little Adrian," the figure said with a sadistic voice. "Did you get attached? Do you see a mother figure in her? Don't waste your time feeling guilty. You already betrayed her. Didn't you? Besides, you should feel proud. You're becoming part of something much bigger than your insignificant existence."A chill ran down Adrian's spine. The mysterious figure was serious,"But if you want, I can end your pain right now," the figure continued, slowly pulling a dagger from the sleeve of their black robe. "After all, my little weapon is made of celestial steel. You've done so much for me that I wouldn't mind showing you a little... mercy."

"There's no need. I understand already," Adrian replied, sighing as he pretended to be calm. "Do you need anything else from me?"

The mysterious person let out a slightly disturbing laugh before answering, "Oh, this is just the beginning."

Vaggie

After managing to calm Niffty down, without Alastor's help as he had vanished after speaking with the tiny lady, she decided to look for Charlie to inform her that the situation was under control. After a few minutes of searching, she found her in their room, sitting by the window, lost in thought. Vaggie couldn't help but feel worried, as a shroud of unease had enveloped the princess of hell since her conversation with the judge.

"Is everything okay?" Vaggie asked softly, sitting down beside her.

"Yes, everything is fine," Charlie replied, forcing a smile. "Were you able to sort out Niffty?"

"Angel gave her a book and that calmed her down," Vaggie explained. "I didn't want to ask about the content, but Angel said one of the main characters was a very bad boy."They both looked at each other and shared a smile. However, Vaggie couldn't help but notice the worry in Charlie's eyes.

"Are you sure you're okay? I don't want to pressure you, but it's strange that you didn't want to help with Niffty. Plus, you seem... discouraged."

"I'd love to be able to talk about this, but I can't, Vaggie," Charlie replied, looking down.

Vaggie smiled and gently took her chin to direct her eyes towards her,"You don't have to go into details. But I'm here for you," she reassured her, stroking her cheek tenderly. Vaggie couldn't help but feel that the judge's arrival was constantly causing Charlie to feel uneasy.

"Thank you, Vaggie," Charlie said. "I don't know what decision to make. There's some information that I can access that will answer a lot of questions I have, but it could also change my life forever and I don't know if I'm ready to face these hidden truths. It's my responsibility as princess of hell, but I don't feel prepared for this weight and I don't know if I ever will be. What if this truth makes me question everything I've ever believed in and fought for? What if I can't achieve anything even with this information? Victoria has faith in me and gave me time to think, which is comforting. But I still feel lost."

Vaggie's heart sank as she observed the confusion in Charlie's eyes. She understood the weight of the decision that rested on her beloved's shoulders, and the fear that was taking hold of her soul. With a gentle touch, Vaggie took Charlie's face in her hands, her eyes filled with unwavering support and love,"Charlie," Vaggie said, her voice soft and comforting, "I know this choice isn't easy. The path you're on is riddled with uncertainty, and the weight of the responsibility you carry is immense. But remember, you're not alone on this journey. I'm here for you, every step of the way. No matter how daunting or unsettling this information may be. The truth has the power to liberate your spirit and guide you towards a brighter future. Embrace it, Charlie, not with fear, but with unwavering conviction in your strength and determination. I understand the fear of losing your faith, of questioning everything you've ever held dear. But true faith is not blind adherence to beliefs, but an unwavering conviction in your values, even in the face of adversity. Trust your intuition. Your heart is a compass that guides you towards the right path. And never forget that you possess an inner strength that surpasses any obstacle. I believe in you, Charlie, with all my heart. And more importantly, you're not alone in this. You have me and everyone in this hotel to whom you've given something to believe in."

Charlie's eyes welled up with tears, touched by Vaggie's words. The former exterminator hugged her tenderly, snuggling together in a loving gesture."Thank you, Vaggie," Charlie whispered, her voice full of gratitude. "Your words mean a lot to me. You're right, I won't let fear stop me. I'll face the truth, no matter how hard it is. And I'll do it with you by my side," her girlfriend replied, giving her a tender kiss on the lips and then taking her by the shoulders and looking at her with complete motivation. "Let's go get that diary now!" "Which diary?" Vaggie asked just before the princess of Hell took her hand and dragged her through the hotel corridors with firm and determined steps. The former exterminator had many doubts in her mind, but for now, she was content to see the spark of happiness and challenge in Charlie's eyes.

Finally, they stopped in front of the judge's room door. Vaggie could see how the princess of Hell took a deep breath as she looked uncertainly at the doorknob. She decided to give her hand a gentle squeeze to encourage her. Charlie smiled and nodded, letting go of her hand. With a determined impulse, she swung the door open.

"JUDGE! I'VE MADE A DECISION AND I..." Charlie exclaimed with a firm voice, before falling absolutely silent and closing the door again.

"What happened?" Vaggie asked, confused and worried.

"Don't go in there," the princess of Hell murmured with flushed cheeks. "I think I interrupted something."

Vaggie frowned, intrigued by Charlie's sudden shyness. What had she interrupted in the judge's room?

Victoria

"What do you mean?"asked Alastor, showing some curiosity." Victoria looked at him for a moment, feeling somewhat calmer. She still didn't understand why the radio host had gotten so upset. Did his own interests concern him that much? She decided to respond while keeping calm "My job, Alastor. Remember that I'm here to determine if there are redeemable souls here. I hope that this investigation ends with a staggering number of salvageable souls and thus achieves a change in the system, an improvement. For that, I need to have information on as many souls as possible. And I don't just mean the story of their lives. For that, I could simply lock myself in the Limbo archive. I need to know their motivations, the source of their decisions, every introspection they've made since their arrival in hell, their reflections, hopes, and shattered dreams. I need to know the depth of their hearts." "So, is Zestial just a pawn in your larger game?"The Overlord questioned her." "Victoria nodded, smiling. She had finally managed to convey to her interlocutor that there was no need to worry. She didn't like to think of people as pieces in a game, but her kindness to Zestial was due to the need to learn about the story of the ancient being and start her work. She had already lost a lot of time, and the opportunity was too good to miss, as it was not usual to be able to have a private conversation with the lords of hell. Her determination was clear,"I hate to call it a game, but yes. Zestial is just one of the many players on this board. My goal is to gather as much information as possible to make informed decisions about the fate of these souls. To truly make a change. There are many things I don't agree with in this system,"He explained with honesty. There was no longer any point in holding back,"I can't afford to overlook any opportunity to obtain valuable information, even if it means playing the role Zestial has for me. You must understand that to achieve this, I must be open with the souls of this place and show a genuine interest in them, something I truly have. I'm not here just for the Supreme Judges; I'm here for myself and for my ideals."

At that moment, Alastor let out a small laugh as he stared at her intently. Confusion seized her mind."Don't misunderstand me, my dear judge. I'm not mocking you,”The radio host explained, seemingly noticing her confusion," I just find it incredible how, despite being so different, having such divergent goals, we both long for something greater. The pursuit of power and knowledge, the need to challenge the limits imposed on us. Darling, you want to challenge the status quo, playing this game to achieve your goals. Your methods may not resemble mine, but whether you like it or not, you and I are not so different. Victoria watched as the radio demon leaned on his cane while smiling broadly with a sense of satisfaction. Alastor's words struck her mind, and her initial instinct was to deny the claims. However, she couldn't seem to find any argument to contradict his statements. Could it be true that, beneath the surface, they shared a similar determination, an innate impulse to challenge norms and seek something beyond the established? It was true that she longed for something beyond the ordinary, something different from written rules. Alastor claimed to have that same impulse. Were they really a reflection of each other but motivated by a different moral compass? But her pursuit of justice and redemption was different from the radio host's unchecked ambition.

Alastor smiled at her with a certain complexity, and Victoria felt her stomach churn as surprise invaded her face. The radio host was a demon who enjoyed chaos and entertainment. He was someone who sought personal satisfaction without thinking about the consequences. She, on the other hand, did not. How was it possible that they were alike if their motivations were so different? Why did his words intrigue her so much? Why did his charisma and intelligence evoke respect and admiration in her?

Amidst all this internal conflict, Victoria had to admit that Alastor was right about one thing. Both of them desired change and to go beyond what was expected of them. "Perhaps you're right," the judge responded, looking away as a sense of realization washed over her.

"Don't be so surprised, my dear judge. After all, we are two forces sharing a determination that defies established norms. Beings like us always strive for something, be it power, knowledge, justice, or simply freedom.

Victoria listened attentively to those words. There was an uncomfortable truth that she couldn't deny. Deep down, the judge longed for more than just justice. She sought a change in the system, a transformation that went beyond the individual redemption of sinners.

She sighed and smiled faintly. She could understand that Alastor saw her as a reflection of himself, but that wouldn't make her stray from her path, for her goal was justice and a better system, not personal glory or entertainment. The smile of the radio demon, both intriguing and unsettling, seemed to want to challenge Victoria's perception of herself. Could she trust the words of someone so cunning and manipulative, or was it just another trick in his endless game of deceit? Finally, she decided to take the risk."I find it hard to admit that you understand me more than I thought. I thought there would be mockery or disdain from your part. You're more insightful than I had anticipated. Perhaps this camaraderie you seek is a good idea."

"My dear judge, I'm glad you understand," Alastor said in a cold voice, "but for that, it's crucial that there are no secrets between us," he continued, taking her chin so she wouldn't look away. "Tell me, Victoria. Why do you bleed red?"

Victoria could feel Alastor's warm hand firmly gripping her face, taken aback by the coldness in the radio host's voice. She furrowed her brow, trying to process the question. "What are you talking about?" she said, trying to find a way out of this situation. In response, Alastor leaned in, narrowing his eyes.

"Don't try to deny it, Victoria. You stained my precious coat with your bloody cough," Alastor responded, irritated. "Aren't you supposed to, beings of Limbo, have silver-colored blood?" Victoria truly couldn't comprehend what was going through the radio demon's mind, but she was sure that she couldn't reveal her secret. That would make her vulnerable. "I don't deny it. Yes. My blood is red. Thank you for letting me know you're not colorblind," she replied sarcastically.

"Victoria," the red demon retorted, pressing his fingers more firmly. She looked him in the eye challengingly, and the radio host's smile widened. "Don't be naughty, darling. You know what I mean."

"I thought you would have realized by now that I don't wish to disclose that information, Alastor. Not to you, nor to anyone," Victoria pointed out, lightly poking the demon's ribs with her index finger, causing slight tickling that loosened his grip, allowing Victoria to free her face. Alastor looked at her with a mixture of indignation and surprise. "Did you just... tickle me?" the radio host asked incredulously.

"Yes. And now, I kindly ask that you refrain from further discussion on the matter, or else you'll have to leave the room," she concluded confidently. Victoria kept her voice calm but firm. Alastor's pupils gleamed as his eyes darkened. It was evident that her interlocutor was getting annoyed. The judge got up from the bed and walked towards the door. "It would be best if I leave my room so you can calm down, since evidently, you're not making any attempt to leave."

Just as the judge reached for the doorknob, she felt Alastor's hand on her shoulder, turning her somewhat roughly before firmly grasping her wrist. The radio demon had lost patience with her evasiveness, and the frustration caused by her refusals seemed to have reached its limit. Victoria didn't want to get into a conflict, especially considering that she hadn't fully recovered yet, so she decided to use her knowledge in self-defense to leverage Alastor's grip against him and bring him down. However, Victoria didn't notice that he still had his cane nearby, causing her to stumble and fall to the ground beside him.

"Why do I always end up on the floor when we argue?" she complained, raising her gaze. At that moment, her eyes landed on Alastor's cane. It was broken. Fear ran down her spine. This couldn't be good. Without a second thought, she tried to get up, but the radio host quickly grabbed her ankle and dragged her towards him as he got up on his knees, leaving her beneath him. Victoria turned herself around to face him, placing her knee on his chest to try to push him off, but Alastor responded by placing his hand on her shoulder, pressing her against the ground.”Fine! I'm sorry I broke your cane!,”she exclaimed irritably, closing her eyes. There was a moment of silence before Alastor sighed.

"It was already broken. I haven't been able to fix it completely yet," Alastor confessed, shaking his head before looking at her again. Victoria could notice that his eyes had returned to normal, but his voice still sounded annoyed.

"Ah, I see. Anyway, I'm sorry. It wasn't my intention," she repeated, relieved.

"Well…" he chuckled, his voice regaining its signature smoothness," Seems we both got a little carried away, wouldn't you agree, my dear judge?." Alastor's laughter echoed through the room, the tension dissipating like smoke in the air. Victoria, still lying on the floor beneath him, couldn't help but crack a smile. Alastor's sudden shift from menacing to playful was as disarming as it was confusing.

"Indeed, Alastor," she replied, her voice laced with a hint of amusement. "It seems we both have a penchant for the dramatic."

At that moment, the door to the room swung open”JUDGE! I'VE MADE A DECISION AND I…,”Charlie exclaimed with a firm voice, before falling completely silent and looking at them with utter amazement, then quickly shutting the door.

Alastor's amusement, momentarily forgotten, gave way to a flicker of annoyance. He glanced at the closed door, then back at Victoria with a raised eyebrow. There was a hint of exasperation on his face.

"Well, well, well," he drawled, his voice regaining its signature showmanship,"looks like our little...debate got interrupted." He rose from his kneeling position slowly, extending a hand to help Victoria up. His earlier frustration had completely vanished, replaced by a playful curiosity and amusement.

"Not now, Alastor. I must talk with Charlie right now…seems the Princess has some rather... interesting ideas about our little discussion,'" she retorted, a hint of sarcasm lacing her voice, "Perhaps it's best if we… table this discussion for now." Victoria stared at Alastor outstretched hand, her mind racing. She knew she couldn't keep her secret forever, but she wasn't ready to reveal it just yet. She took a deep breath and placed her hand in his and the red demon pulled her to her feet. Alastor chuckled. "Indeed," he agreed, a mischievous glint in his eyes,” though, one can hardly blame her for jumping to conclusions, considering the... unorthodox position we find ourselves in, my dear Victoria." "There's nothing unorthodox about it," she insisted, her voice firm. "I simply… lost my balance because of your damn cane."She replied, averting her gaze.

Alastor raised an eyebrow, a playful smirk dancing on his lips. "Is that so?" he questioned, his voice dripping with amusement."Perhaps you should be more careful, my dear judge. One wouldn't want to give the Princess the wrong impression, now would we?"

Victoria rolled her eyes. Alastor was enjoying this far too much. She knew he was deliberately twisting the situation to get a rise out of her.

"Anyway, judge, are you sure you want to pause this conversation? We both know this isn't over. The red stain… it demands an explanation."Alastor insisted.

"And I've already told you, I'm not at liberty to discuss it."Victoria replied, brushing off her clothes, speaking calmly, gradually regaining his usual composure.

"Not at liberty? Or simply unwilling to trust me?" the radio demon said as he leaned in closer with a charming smile.

The very idea of trusting him sent a shiver down her spine. Alastor was powerful, unpredictable, and his motives were always shrouded in self-interest. There was no way she could trust him with her secret, not yet. "That's not the point," she insisted, "This is about my privacy. You don't have the right to pry into my personal affairs." she pointed, trying to steer the conversation away

Alastor's eyes narrowed "Don't be naive, Victoria," he said, his voice dripping with condescension. "In this business, secrets are liabilities. And liabilities can be… detrimental to partnerships."

"Then perhaps,"She said, losing her patience a bit,"we should reconsider this partnership altogether."

The air crackled with tension. The radio host stared at her for a long, tense moment, his expression unreadable. Finally, with a sigh that seemed to shake the very room, he tilted his head. "Very well, Victoria, there's no need to go that far," he said, his voice regaining a semblance of its usual smoothness."We shall postpone this... discussion for another time. But remember, secrets have a way of coming out, and when they do…" He trailed off, a dangerous glint in his eyes. "The consequences can be… unpleasant."

"I understand, Alastor. But I really don't want to share this information. It's dangerous for my integrity," she responded with complete honesty, looking down. She knew her reluctance would only increase Alastor's suspicions and the chances of him meddling in her affairs. "I'm sorry, but I simply can't tell you... yet."

Alastor began to walk towards the door, turning his back to her, and just before leaving the room, he sighed. "Victoria, I admire your courage in defending your secret. You're undoubtedly a strong and irritatingly stubborn woman who has a knack for frustrating me and testing my patience. Your willpower is something I respect. But don't fool yourself, your reluctance only fuels my curiosity. Your secret is something that deeply intrigues me, and I can't help but feel that it has the potential to change the course of our alliance. So, I warn you: sooner or later, I'll find a way to uncover the truth."

"I know," Victoria said with a small smile. "I wouldn't expect any less from you. I assure you that when the time comes, I'll be ready to tell you."

Alastor glanced at her over his shoulder for a few seconds. "Get well soon, Victoria," he said in a neutral tone, holding the parts of his cane. "Your interview is waiting for you," the radio demon concluded before leaving the room.
