#BLUSHING AMMON>>>>

Wine Valentine - Ammon story pt.1 & pt.2

The day after The Valentine's party ended successfully.

While I was resting in my room I remembered the time I spent with Ammon...

A few days ago a party was held at Grosvenor's house...

I was visiting a party venue that Ammon and the others were preparing.

Ammon: So..! Will the wall decorations look like this?

You: Things are going well, aren't they?

Ammon: That's right. We have also decided on which food and wine will be served.

Ammon: The preparations are almost finished. I'll have some spare time.

You: Right.

Ammon: Ah, also. As we've come to Grosvenor's mansion...

Ammon: Aruji-sama. Should we take a walk in the garden?

You: Eh..?

Ammon: I took a glimpse at it as I was preparing for the party. It was a lovely garden.

Ammon: There aren't many chances to visit Grosvenor's garden. I'll make sure to escort aruji-sama properly♪

Ammon: So, aruji-sama... Will you spend some time with me?

You: That seems a bit intimate...

Ammon: Isn't that good..? There's no one here now.

Hanamaru: ... We are literally here?

Ammon: Oh? If it isn't Hanamaru-san.

Hanamaru: Don't "oh" me. We've been here from the very beginning.

Ammon: Hehe. My bad~

Ammon: There's only lord in my eyes...

Bastien: Hm... That's not good, Ammon-san.

Bastien: As aruji-sama's butler... You should always be aware of your surroundings.

Ammon: Are you serious, Bastien..

Yuhan: Fufu... I also don't think that it's good to keep things all to yourself, Ammon-san.

Lato: Me too... I also want to walk alone with aruji-sama.

Ammon: Hehe. Well, I guess I can't just monopolize aruji-sama~

Ammon: The Valentine's Day is almost there... I feel like spending some romantic time with aruji-sama.

You: "Romantic time" you say...

Ammon: Huh? After all, that's what the Valentine's day is about?

Hanamaru: Oh my... Don't just say that, Ammon. We're all holding back here.

Hanamaru: Isn't this right, everyone? We all want to be romantic with aruji-sama?

Yuhan: Now, what is it? I'm a well-mannered butler.

Hanamaru: Liar. For those who say that, it's better...

Yuhan: ...Better..? What is it?

Hanamaru: Nothing.

You: (I wonder what it was...)

Yuhan: Right. By the way, Ammon-san...

Yuhan: As the food and drinks were decided... How about to choose flowers to decorate the room?

Ammon: Right, flowers...

Ammon: In the eastern land... There's a custom to arrange flowers, right?

Lato: Arranging... flowers?

Ammon: Right. It's a bit different in Central land.

Ammon: Combined with a beautiful vase... A well-thought-out beauty.

Yuhan: Yeah. I think it's suitable for Central land.

Yuhan: Aside from ikebana, I think that "Chabana"(?) would also be good.

You: -Chabana...?

-( There are even tea flowers....)

Bastien: Chabana... That's the first time I heard about it.

Ammon: In short, tea flowers are the flowers that are displayed in the tea room.

Ammon: Rather than ikebana, it puts more emphasis on being natural. Seasonality of flowers is also the key.

Ammon: For example, fresh windflowers picked up in nature.

Hanamaru: Heh, as expected from Ammon. You know everything about flowers.

Ammon: Hehe. Well, not that I've done it myself. I just have this knowledge.

Ammon: But, I see. Chabana...

Ammon: In Grosvenor's garden flowers are grown in flower beds. Besides, there are windflowers...

Ammon: It might be interesting to try.

Ammon: That's why I need everyone to quickly pick up some flowers!

You: Eh, now?

Bastien: Looking for flowers..? I'm not sure which I should choose....

Ammon: That's okay. Even if the flower seems simple, that's its charm.

Bastien: I see. Then, Ammon-san will...?

Ammon: I'll arrange the vase.

Ammon: I'll prepare the vase that perfectly matches the atmosphere of Eastern land.

Ammon: I'll bring the catalog... I'd like to hear aruji-sama's opinion.

You: Mine?

Ammon: Of course. You're the guest at the party, after all.

Ammon: I don't think it'll be too difficult. Don't worry too much♪

You: Understood.

Bastien: I see.. I'll leave it to Ammon-san then.

Yuhan: Then, aruji-sama. Please, excuse me for a moment.

You: Mm, good luck.

The butlers bowed. They left me alone with Ammon as they left to pick up the windflowers.

Ammon: They're gone....

You: Let's choose the vase together.

Ammon: Oh-ho? What did you say, aruji-sama?

Ammon: What vase? I've already put one in another room next to ours. (This dude---)

You: Eh...?

Ammon: Hehe. Which flowers would decorate the venue have been decided in advance.

Ammon: We have arranged the perfect tableware... The only thing to do was to decorate it with flowers.

Ammon: Everyone decided to collect flowers by themselves.. I just went along with that♪

You: But, what for..?

Ammon: Hehe. That would be...

Ammon: I will spend some private time with aruji-sama♪

Ammon: Speaking of The Valentine's day... You need to spend time with your loved ones.

Ammon: And speaking of my loved ones, it's aruji-sama, of course.

Ammon: We have delicious wine here...

Ammon: With important to me person... Drinking wine, while being surrounded by beautiful flowers...

Ammon: Well, the flowers are still to be here. While aruji-sama is here, that's already enough.

Ammon: Hehe. What about aruji-sama?

Ammon: With your loved one... You don't want to loose romantic time, do you..?

You: Teasing me like that again...

Ammon: Teasing..? I'm being honest, aruji-sama.

Ammon: The words of feeling the importance of aruji-sama... There's not even a single lie.

Ammon: Thinking how to spend more alone time with aruji-sama... As a result, I alienated other butlers.

Ammon: Hey... What are the true intentions of aruji-sama..?

Ammon: For someone like me... Is it okay to tell my true feelings..?

You: A-Ammon..

I was fully aware that it was the part of his strategy, but... When I look in those serious eyes... I can't help but speak my true feelings.

Lato: Kufufu... That's it, Ammon-kun.

You: !?

Ammon: Oh? Isn't that Lato-san?

Ammon: And everyone else... Have you already finished picking the flowers up?

Hanamaru: No. Actually, we were interrupted by the guard.

Yuhan: He said that the flowers were needed to decorate the party venue...

Yuhan: "You can't pick these flowers! Go to a flower shop!" is what he said...

Yuhan: Jeez.. That's a real problem for those, who can't understand simple beauty.

Bastien: Since we had no other choice, we decided to come back.

Hanamaru: Hehe. Looks like we made the right decision.

Hanamaru: Had it been a bit later, Ammon would pick the most beautiful flower.

Ammon: No wa~y, Hanamaru-san. Don't say such bad things about me.

Ammon: I just wanted to enjoy the atmosphere of The Valentine's day. Surely, aruji-sama would understand that it's just for fun♪

Hanamaru: However, why is aruji-sama's face so red?

Lato: It's good that there are vases in other room.

You: U-Uhm...

Ammon: Alright, everyone! There's a little time left to prepare for the party.

Ammon: Let's all work hard to collect the most beautiful flowers♪

Hanamaru: Ah. Changing the topic.

Yuhan: Fufu. But Ammon-san is right.

Yuhan: Since we have time... Let's all work hard to make the best pre-party.

Bastien: Yeah.. That's right.

So I watched as Ammon and the others decorated the venue... I wonder whether Ammon was serious or not earlier...

***

"So that's how it is" I thought as I flipped through the wine catalog. Ammon was very hospitable at the pre-party... Now, it's my turn to repay him. I bought him wine from Rosetown... And for Ammon... I prepared his favorite cheese. Being happy with him... I wanted to express it in a gift.

Knock knock.

You: Come in.

Ammon: As I said, I came alone, aruji-sama~

Ammon: I heard that you wanted to do something...

Ammon: Hehe. Maybe it has to do something with The Valentine's day~?

You: I want to give this to you.

Ammon: Eh? This is...

Ammon: Wine..? And, could it be..

Ammon: Really... Could it be a Valentine's gift?

You: - That's right.

- Thank you, Ammon.

Ammon: Hehe. Thank you, aruji-sama.

Ammon: This is... Rosetown's wine, right?

You: Apparently it goes well with cheese.

Ammon: Really? You've adapted it to my taste!

You: If you'd like, you can drink now.

When I said that, Ammon sat at the table I had prepared in advance. He took the empty glass and some cheese.

Ammon: Hehe... I had never thought that I would spend The Valentine's day with aruji-sama...

Ammon: Of course, I'll drink some! Because everything is delicious when I'm with aruji-sama.

Ammon: So, excuse me...

As Ammon pour some wine into the glass, he fully enjoys the scent. As he takes one sip... He takes some time to enjoy the taste.

Ammon: ... It's delicious, aruji-sama.

Ammon: The moment you open the bottle, there's a faint fragrance...

Ammon: It felt like flowers had bloomed in my mouth.

Ammon: Aruji-sama's feelings... They feel like flowers with no thorns.

Ammon: Hehe. I can't believe you gave me such a wonderful present...

Ammon: Really... Aruji-sama likes me♪

As usual, Ammon says something that is hard for me to respond to... But today I was a little braver than usual.

You: I really do.

Ammon: Eh...

You: I want you to continue being by my side.

Ammon: Erm... Aruji-sama...

Ammon: That's... Could it be....

Ammon: The revenge for pre-party time?

You: Did your heart flutter...?

Ammon: Hehe. It pretty much did♪

Ammon: I've never expected it from aruji-sama...

Ammon: But... If you allow me to give you a piece of advice...

Ammon: Don't you think the main part was revealed a little bit too early?~

Ammon: If only you could make me more nervous... It'd be more interesting~

You: I'm nothing like Ammon...

Ammon: Hehe. Well, I'm a pro in this sphere.

Ammon: ( Although, if I was more nervous... I doubt that I'd be able to restrain myself...)

You: What's wrong?

Ammon: N-No... Nothing!

Ammon: Spending The Valentine's day with aruji-sama is the best... I had to clench my teeth.

Ammon: Well then. We have wine and cheese...

Ammon: Just a little bit longer... Is it okay if I spend some more time being happy? Aruji-sama...

You: Of course.

Although I said something like that to make Ammon's heart flutter, I had to gather all my courage up.... I had to back up... I was more nervous, than I thought I'd be. And now... I wonder if Ammon always harbors feelings like that. While I was thinking about it... I spent some time with Ammon on The Valentine's day.

THE END.

a/n: I really hope you don't mind my adapted translation because holy shit the translation of translator is something. also, please don't mind any grammatical errors, it's literally like midnight and I suck at grammar. hope y'all enjoyed seeing blushing ammon. (because i really did)

[sugar-glaze-donut]

HI HI IT'S ME AGAIN!! hope you don't mind me sliding into your asks again. :D

continuing the topic of touch-starved butlers... what do you think would happen if aruji-sama was VERY affectionate? like, they wouldn't even mind publicly hug their butlers or hold hands with them. (probably flustering the hell out of them)

OR EVEN BETTER IF IT'S PRIVATE. like god. like imagine. private cuddle sessions before you doze off to sleep. or unplanned hugs from the back while they're doing something.

MHMHMGMMF KISSING THEM GOODNIGHT>>>

they deserve all of the kisses and hugs. you can't argue with me.

anyways!!! may you have a great day!! love you!! (⁠*⁠˘⁠︶⁠˘⁠*⁠)⁠.⁠｡⁠*⁠♡

OMG A RETURNING ANON!?!? I HAVE BEEN GRACED BY YOUR PRESENCE ONCE AGAIN :D

ofc I don't mind getting another ask! Fuck school, I have an anon request to write!

TW: OOC butlers

Aruji-sama being very affectionate in public and private is 100% just like me! (I just have to restrain myself to not touch people too much or they’ll get annoyed :,) )

~👒-💐-In Public-🐾-📚~

Just imagine giving the butlers head pats out of nowhere and holding their hand while in public! Cuties like Lamli, Lono, and Lato will definitely lean into your touch and squeeze your hand too.

Flure might flinch and pout at you saying it's really embarrassing (but he doesn't want you to let go of his hand 🥺)

Some other cuties like Fennesz and Berrien are exploding with blush. Their reactions are so cute! “wh- ah!? Aruji-sama is holding my hand!!???!!?!??1!???” I bet they’ll be covering their face and struggling to keep their composure 💕

And our usually bold Ammon might blush from all the attention they're getting from you. He might even avert his gaze away from you when you turn to look at him. Lmao who’s blushing now~ >:)

Overall public the butlers wouldn't be that affectionate, considering how they have to keep the "butler and master" role thing in check.

~💌-🏰-Private-🍰-🥀~

Oh yes, I did go crazy when writing this. You can't blame me though, GIVING THE BUTLERS KISSES SFKJBSKJFBKEJSNBFOJN

Giving the butlers head pats and hugs after their training HNNGGGGG--

Aruji-sama: Good job today (｡･∀･)ﾉ(._. `) The butlers: (.////. `)

And giving your main butler the ✨special treatment✨ (CUDDLES AND KISSES)

Hugging them behind their back when they least expect it... oh my god anon... what have you done to me? Like, after a long and tiring day... You just want to cuddle with your favourite butler, inhaling their scent... ok I sound like an absolute creep here (sorry 😨) But it'll be funny seeing their reaction. For example, Fennesz, Berrien, Flure, or any of the shy butlers: SFBHGDLHBSHLHDHF *internal screeching*

Butlers made for cuddling 101: - Lamli and Lato: Snuggles into your arms. They're like little puppies! - Flure: Smol and just right for cuddling (depends on your height? I'm taller than him so I'll write it in a tall Aruji-sama perspective). You can braid your hair while cuddling. Smells really nice- *bonked* - Hanamaru and Haures: Older brother material here folks. Smells sweet like the pastries they eat *gets bonked again*

And kissing them! Kissing their hands, their scars, to even the devil's contract crest on them too! (But for characters like Lono... you're not going to kiss the place where his crest is right...? Right...!???) I know this is really mean, but these men have gotten no bitches (except for Lucas but let's ignore that) *VINE BOOM*, no maidens *VINE BOOM*, and no lovers too 😞 *VINE BOOMS* But YOU! Yes, YOU! YOU CAN BE THE ONE TO GIVE THESE MENTALLY UNSTABLE MEN AFFECTION!!!

You don't even need to hold back! Are there weird townsfolk here to make fun of us? No! Are there snobby nobles here to judge us? No!! Are there any angels here to disturb our time? NO!!!

PAMPER THEM WITH AFFECTION!!! GIVE THEM KIND AND REASSURING WORDS!!!! JUST DO ANYTHING TO MAKE THEM HAPPY AND RELAXED!!!!!

COMFORT THE ONES WHO GOT DEMONISED! HAVE A SLEEPOVER WITH THEM AND CUDDLE THEM TO SLEEP

FBHBFEHDJHREDSJKXCNBVFHD

(dear anon... I'm not the same person I was before I wrote this fic... what have you done to me... /hj)

You were wandering around the devil butlers' palace. After all, you had nothing better to do as you ended up outside out of the devil butlers' palace without meaning too- as you simply just walked around the garden, you heard familiar voices as it was Ammon and Boschi- you simply just watched as Ammon ranted about random facts about flowers to Boschi who looked so done with everything right now as you blushed noticing the Boschi's eyes met yours..

"Aruji-sama came." Boschi said as he smirked, noticing how your cheeks heated up as he thought "cute" while Ammon just smiled noticing you standing there as he blinked noticed the tension in the air between you and Boschi as he simply hid his sly smile behind his hand while you were blushing as you didn't think they would notice you.

"U-Uh-" You tried to say something, but the words didn't wanna come out of your mouth as you just felt super embarrassed by Boschi just smirking at you as if he knew you had a crush on him which he didn't obviously but you thought he did before you simply ran off- as Ammon and Boschi stood there dumbfounded by what just happened right now.

A few hours later~

You were outside in the forest near the lake with Muu both just watching the sky and the lake as you simply smiled hearing Muu just talk to you about things that happened today as you blinked noticing a familiar figure just laying down under a tree.

"Ah! Boschi!" You thought to yourself as you blinked noticing Muu just went back to the devil butlers' palace thinking you were following as you simply felt your cheeks heat up as you walked carefully and slowly over to Boschi as you just stared at his resting face.. he looked so peaceful..

"Enjoying the view, Aruji-sama?" Boschi asked, surprising you as you jumped up a bit in surprise before you could run away or back up. Boschi just pulled you on top of him- you cheeks were even redder now but it felt nice as Boschi himself was blushing a bit but he hid it.

You just closed your eyes as you slowly fell asleep on Boschi's chest as Boschi simply watched you with a small gentle smile on his face as he simply just carefully kissed your forehead before he fell asleep himself it was peaceful and an adorable moment between you two! <3

But meanwhile in the devil butlers' palace the whole place looked like a mess with the devil butlers trying to find you as Haures just noticed the Boschi wasn't there either- they simply just were worried sick about their Aruji-sama after all they barely knew where you were-

"Where last did you seen Aruji-sama Muu?" Fennesz asked as he simply tried to keep his cool down as he really didn't wanna think the worst happened to their Aruji same as Muu remembered the forest all the devil butlers were now in the forest near the lake-

They found you and Boschi sleeping together literally cuddling as to say the least some of the devil butlers weren't happy-

"BOSCHI!" Haures yelled immediately waking up both of you as you seemed just blushed covering your face seeing how all the butlers saw you with Boschi in the position while Boschi just yawned not caring at all as he simply smirked seeing the annoyed look on Haures' face and Lamil..

Maybe one day one of you will confess your love to the other but for now it will just a crushing stage until the day comes..

Dillon how are things going between you and Ammon? Have you been getting used to being called a good boy?

Dillon blushes as he was currently sketching a portrait of Ammon. "I am... its nice when he calls me it.. I have gotten over most of the trauma and have replaced it with a positive association"

Berrien’s Birthday Gift

berrien x gn!aruji-sama (first person pov)

i’m a bit late to his bday celebration, but hey, you can never have too much of berrien right??

Today is Berrien’s birthday. Normally, I would be calm regarding gift picking, but this year was different. I felt a weird sense of unease this year.

Muu looked at me as I fiddled with the bouquet of flowers I had prepared for Berrien, tilting his head in confusion when he saw a frown form on my face.

This doesn’t look right.

I took the bouquet and set it down where it wouldn’t be in my direct line of vision and sighed. This wasn’t going the way I wanted it to. The only thought running through my mind was how I could make this Berrien’s best birthday ever. I knew deep down that by holding myself to such high standards, I was essentially setting myself up for failure, but I didn’t want to admit it.

The little black cat by my side looked up at me sympathetically. “Berrien is going to love whatever you gift him, Aruji-sama, so please don’t stress yourself out too much.” He said this and yet I felt myself grow more upset with myself.

Why am I stressing out more than usual this year? Muu is right in saying that Berrien is grateful for anything anyone gifts him for his birthday, but I want this year to be different.

“You’re right, Muu.” I pet his head gently and stood up to go fetch the bouquet of roses. Ammon had done me the favor of helping me pick out the best roses in the garden. As I was looking at the bouquet, I couldn’t help but think we really outdid ourselves this year; the flowers looked especially beautiful this time.

With this thought in mind, I swallowed whatever doubt I had brewing in my heart and set off to go find Berrien to give him the gift I had prepared.

I walked around aimlessly for about five minutes before turning to Muu. “Do you think he’s in his office at the moment?” The black cat looked thoughtful for a second before nodding.

Upon reaching the door to Berrien’s office, I felt the butterflies in my stomach again at full force. I sincerely hoped Berrien would like his gift, and I knew he would, but the doubt in my mind was all consuming. I just have to tear the bandaid off in one go.

And so I knocked on the door, “Um, Berrien… I’m sorry to be a bother, but can I come in?”

I heard the faint sound of the rustling of papers before Berrien spoke up from inside the room, “Oh, Aruji-sama, you’re never a bother. Please, come in.”

I opened the door and set my eyes on the man sitting on the desk in the middle of the room. He was wearing his reading glasses and had a big pile of papers next to him, pen in hand. It looked like I had interrupted him in the middle of working on some documents, which only made me feel even more guilty about bothering him.

“Happy birthday, Berrien.” I tried to muster up a smile that didn’t convey how anxious I was to be there in that room with him, with his gift in my hands. “I’m sorry for interrupting, but I wanted to give this to you.” I said and showed him the bouquet in my hands.

Berrien’s gaze softened, and he gave me one of those warm smiles I grew to admire after spending so much time with the butlers, with him.

I felt my cheeks heat up slightly at this and looked away from him before setting down the bouquet on a free spot on top of his desk. I stood there awkwardly for a few seconds before speaking up. “I hope you like it. I… wasn’t sure if you were going to like it, but…”

I paused when I heard Berrien chuckle, and I looked up to see him shaking his head at me. “Just you being yourself is the best thing you can gift me, Aruji-sama.”

I blinked after a split second and immediately felt my face heat up. I was sure I was as red as a tomato, but I couldn’t take my eyes off of the man in front of me. My heart sped up the moment I saw a faint blush spread across Berrien’s cheeks.

“M-My apologies, Aruji-sama.” Berrien pursed his lips; his blush only grew into a deeper shade of pink. “To say something like that so abruptly…”

My mouth opened and closed for a few seconds, like a fish out of water, before promptly clamping it shut and giving him a shy smile. “Thank you, Berrien. You’re too kind.”

The silence dragged on for another few seconds before I decided to take my leave. “I’ll leave you to it, Berrien. Thank you so much for your hard work, and happy birthday, again.”

His blush hadn’t gone completely away when he smiled at me and let out a small chuckle. “Thank you, Aruji-sama.”

I lingered for a bit before turning around and left the office where Muu was standing, waiting for me.

“Oh, Aruji-sama!” He said cheerfully. “How did it go? Did he like it? Of course he did!”

I laughed at his usual perky self and nodded. “Yeah, Muu. You were right. He did like it.” The small black cat let out a tiny cheer before we began to make our way back to our room; the memory of Berrien’s gentle eyes lingering in my mind.

[4ltrd]

I’ve seen you in the Akuneko tag a few times and was wondering who your top 3 butlers are? 😊 My top 3 is constantly flip flopping if I’m being honest. I really like Berrien, Lucas, Lamli, Miyaji, Nac, and now Haures/Fennez have grown on me with the release of chapter 2.

*jumps up and down, waving*

First, I adore Akuneko because I quit a 10-year-long position due to chronic migraines this February 2022, and having worked all my teen-adult life, I didn't know what to do with myself when I suddenly wasn't working at all. I found Akuneko around the time I quit, and it helped me basically in every way it's supposed to. It is a godsend.

If someone reads this who a) doesn't know Akuneko already, b) struggles with anxiety, depression, stress, etc., c) likes otome/ikémen games, and d) doesn't mind translating from Japanese, you can find Akuneko in the US Google Play store (link below) or in Qoo.

My top three are:

Lamli. He's awful at his "job," but he does everything possible to make you happy. He wants desperately to be a "cool adult" with his shit together to impress you, but he doesn't realize how overrated it is. He's full of unbridled energy and passion, and he never forgets to tell you how he feels. I see my ADHD in him and I love it. I just want to goof around all day with him (and give everyone else in the mansion grey hairs).

Boschi. Sure, Lucas is undisputed #1 for teasing you, with Ammon at #2, but Boschi is a real dark horse when it comes to flirting. He says some things where I'm like, "Boschi, you scoundrel!" When he invites you to the sauna with him with that look on his face...! Plus, he's very cute about his hair. He's resilient, proud, and stubborn, which appeals to the Midwesterner in me.

This one is harder! I flip-flop. Right now, I'd say Miyaji. He's always got me on the verge of tears, he's very tall, and he carried us in his demon form (I'm a sucker for kemonomimi). But it could also be Lato or Fennesz or Lono at any given moment. Lato's emotional growth has been so wonderful. Fennesz is always blushing and making adorable sounds (😈). And Lono reminds me of my actual husband (who says AkuNeko is the best/prettiest out of all the mobile games I play).

I'm behind on Chapter 2 (halfway through?) because I have a tendency to hoard story. I don't know why I'm like this... but I don't think there's anything in there that will change my mind.

I love them all! I can't believe how well-written they are, and how human they feel. The dev team behind Akuneko is wonderful.

#DailyDevotion Come LORD Jesus & Deliver Us

#DailyDevotion Come LORD Jesus & Deliver Us Psalm 83 O God, don't keep silent; don't be quiet, O God, and fail to act. 2Your enemies are raging, and those who hate You hold their heads high. 3They discuss shrewd plots against Your people and plan against those You treasure. The psalmist is calling on God to deliver His people. It seems very urgent. The enemies of God's people are God's enemies also. God and His people are one. Their enemies are ramping up to attack His chosen people. Judah looks weak and seems a prime candidate to attack and plunder. Because of this he calls upon God to not be silent and quiet or fail to act. All God needs to do is speak the word and His people will be safe. So too, Jesus, because He is the LORD, during His visible ministry among us in the flesh, often just spoke the word and people were healed and set free from oppression by illness, demonic oppression or even death. 4They say, "Come, let us wipe them out as a nation, so no one will remember Israel's name any longer." 5All of them agree on their plan and make an alliance against You: 6Edom's tents and Ishmael's descendants, Moab and Hagar's descendants, 7Gebal, Ammon, and Amalek, Philistia and those who live at Tyre; 8Assyria also has joined them, becoming an arm of Lot's descendants. (Music) Who is plotting against them? Their closest relatives are! Edom is Isaac's son. Ishmael is Abraham's son by Hagar. Moab and Ammon are Lot's kids by his daughter (Lot was Abraham's nephew). These all plot against their cousin with Israel's ancient enemies and their newest enemy from Assyria. Being jealous of Israel's inheritance they conspire together at this weak time in Judah's history to plunder them. Perhaps then we should not be surprised when those closest to us conspire against us, either religiously or familiarly. Jesus tells us not to get revenge. Paul reminds us to let God get revenge for us. We are to overcome evil with good. 9Do to them what You did to Midian, to Sisera and Jabin at the brook Kishon, 10who were destroyed at Endor and became fertilizer for the ground. 11Make their noblemen like Oreb and Zeeb, all their leaders like Zebah and Zalmunnah. He recalls how the LORD gave them the victory in the past. He asks Him to do the same now. When we feel like we are being attacked, we should remember Jesus' victory over sin and death when He was crucified and risen from the grave for us. We should remember how He conquered temptation in the wilderness for us and ask Him for the victory over our spiritual battles. 12They said, “We'll take God's pastures for ourselves.” 13O my God, make them like tumbleweed, like chaff the wind blows away. 14As a fire burns a forest, as flames set ablaze the hills, 15so hunt them down with Your storm and terrify them with Your tornado. 16Let their faces blush with shame when they seek Your name, O LORD. 17May they be ashamed and terrified forever and perish in disgrace. 18Then they will know that You Whose name is the LORD —- that You alone are high over all the earth. The Church has its enemies in the world. We pray the LORD here to do for the Church what He has promised to do on the Last Day. He will overcome the world, the nations with all its leaders who conspire against Him and His people. He will judge them and wipe them out. They will finally, against their will, acknowledge Christ as LORD and receive their judgment in the Lake of Fire. Heavenly Father, give us strength when we are attacked spiritually and by the world. Come LORD Jesus and deliver us from all evil. In Jesus' name we pray. Amen. Read the full article

Reign, Eiden, Olivine and Damien. What do you think about your partners piercings?

Olivine blushes "i love Aims piercings they feel good. I always love when he plays with mine." Eiden nods in agreement. "Mmmhmm there are hot" Reign also drooled "He is handsome no matter what."

Damien grins "Ammon did a great job on his piercings"

I'm so happy I found a person that writes for akuneko(╥﹏╥)

Can I get this with flure, lamli, and ammon (fun fact; ammon's my favorite♥)

When Aruji-sama kabedons them

this was pretty interesting to write actually and i enjoyed every second of it hehe, thanks for requesting!

characters: Flure, Lamli, and Ammon

Flure Garcia

Poor boy would be blushing so hard he can’t speak

He’s going to squeak if you kabedon him which is adorable in return

Definitely going to avoid eye contact and won’t move a single inch from his position

He’s basically a statue now, no words and no movement

You thought it was cute at first but you started to feel a bit bad seeing that Flure was completely defenseless in this situation

Your grip on the wall behind Flure’s back was starting to get weaker as you thought about how Flure was feeling

You soon let go of Flure, making him gasp in relief

You apologized of course which made Flure say that it was all right and that you didn’t need to apologize at all

In fact, it seemed like Flure had……. enjoyed it?

Well, he sounded sincere and was serious about what you were saying but his facial expression seemed to contradict his own words

You quietly nodded and murmured a silent okay until Flure had left your room

It was a good thing that the butlers didn’t witness what was happening in your room

If they did, that would be endless teasing for you and for Flure

Lamli Bennette

This boy would probably not be flustered considering that this man is a bit playful

As your hands and expression was strong, Lamli was just under you; minding his own business

This little clown was giggling and smiling, how?

You had no absolute idea on why Lamli was like his but this is what Lucas and Nac deal with pretty much everyday

Of course you were ought to deal with him too, sooner or later when you had first arrived at the manor

Lamli would giggle underneath you as you hover over him, with confusion covering your face

After a few minutes of playtime, Lamli would suddenly hug you out of nowhere and start to cuddle with you

His grip was surprisingly strong since you couldn’t move a single limb as you were held hostage by this little clown

You would definitely be yelping out of surprise in Lamli’s arms while he giggles without any remorse

This would go on for a while until either Lucas or Nac have to pull you out of Lamli’s arms

Ammon Lead

Flirty kiss ass comes last

He would definitely stutter and be surprised but he would literally smirk so much it makes you think if you have stunned him

There is a chance you did but Ammon isn’t going to lose so easily just because of one silly action that was done purpose

This might be inappropriate but I guess I can see him blowing a raspberry at you

Your goal might have been changed from making Ammon flustered to slapping Ammon for his behavior

But you love/like him so of course you would never do that (right?)

With the situation like this; the chance of Ammon being flustered was nearly impossible, judging from the way he’s acting

And just like Fennesz (if you have read the first one) he would literally turn you over and kabedon you out of purpose

He clearly knew what he was doing and you didn’t like it

The prideful smirk he had on his face was basically punchable

But you were very surprised from this turn of events to the point where you were speechless

You would quickly push Ammon, making him fall back, and run away as soon as possible

Ammon has trolled you once again

i hope you enjoyed reading these and i just want to apologize if this was late, im slowly taking a small break from writing so that’s the reason why my requests are closed and why the hcs are coming late ^^;

All Characters, the Nicknames MC has For Them, and the Events That Follow: A Wholly Unnecessary Thread

Warnings: None, unless you count demon boys being butthurt about being called out

Enjoy my stupidity!

Lucifer👿🖤🥀☕🍷

Luci

Pridey Pants

Gordon Ramsey of Life

Mom

Loosen-up Luci

Jesus's emo brother

*cough* Daddy *cough*

The results of these nicknames....they were not pretty. MC calls him Luci? He doesn't LOVE it. Does that small scary smile that MC knows (or should know) not to push.

Pridey pants...ohhh boy. MC says it at dinner....is absolutely terrified when he doesnt do anything. After dinner, follows MC into the hallway to dole out *ahem* punishment

Beel is the only one to understand the Gordon Ramsey one. Starts booming laughter

Mom. Oho. This is the second worst. Happened when MC asked Luci to pass them a steak knife. Ended up with the knife being thrown into the table, inches from MC's hand.

Ah. The worst one. Jesus's emo brother. He doesnt even know where to begin. The brothers AND Diavolo have to SPRINT away to keep from cackling like crazed lunatics. Simeon is the only one who openly laughs. Kitchen duty for 2 months. Absolutely worth it. Would do it again without hesitation.

Mammon💛💵💰💳

Mammory Gland

Finding Nemo Seagull (Mine! Mine!)

Crow

Tan Elsa

Greedo

General Greedous

"Ehhhhh? What's a mammary gland?"

*muffled Satan laughter*

Mc has to explain the crow one, because apparently it isnt common knowledge that crows love shiny things?

Tan Elsa. Levi was crying when this one slipped out of MC's mouth. All Mammon could do was be offended. After much, MUCH coaxing, reluctantly agreed to dance to "Let it Go" in a dress.

Levi💜🐍🎮🕹

Has a thing for degradation, so you can really only insult him with anime stuff

Levi Heichou (if you get this, we can be friends)

Leviathan the lonely

Snake man

Mermaid Boy

Snekky snek

Levia-hand

He could ignore all of them.....except for

LEVIA-HAND

I mean come on!

"MC did you really have to go there? That was really-"

"Below the belt?"

"UGH MCCCCC"

*distant suggestive Asmo noises*

Satan💚💢📚

Angry bean

Grumpy kitty

Nerd

Angry librarian

Blond, angsty James Charles

Fashion disaster

There isn't a single one of these that DOESNT make Satan want to break something.

Who is James Charles? Fashion disaster?! "I happen to dress very nicely, thank you very much"

"How am I a librarian? I just read, it's very different, honestly MC"

Refuses to even acknowledge "grumpy kitty"

Asmodeus😘💋❤💅

Asmo-dick-us

Ass-mo

Momo

Polly Pocket

The kinky one

*jokingly* slutttttt

He, surprisingly, doesn't mind any of them. He thinks it's really cute that MC has nicknames for him. He always encourages you to call him them more often, and even makes a bunch of them for MC. His favorite one is Momo, because:

"Its just so cuuuuuuute!"

Beel🥺🍔💪🏻

Sexy Vacuum man

The last Weasley

Snack Buddy

Hungry Bean

Un-beel-eavable

These all make the boy SO HAPPY

MC cares enough to make nicknames for him?

*happy Beel noises*

Wait. MC thinks he's sexy?😳

What's a Weasley?

He has a snack buddy?☺☺☺

Belphie🙁💭💤🛏

Sloth man

Sleepyhead

That bastard with a choking kink

Killer grip

The emo twin

Black Sheep

"I woke up like this" master

He wants to be mad. He really does. But there's a problem: he can't argue with ANY of them. Kinda makes him smile just a LITTLE

Is glad MC has forgiven him enough to actually JOKE about the choking incident.

Spends a lot of time trying to get someone to explain what "emo" means. Levi knows what it means, and refuses to tell him because he thinks its funnily accurate

Dia👑💮🔥

Double D Dia

Big Tiddy Divvy

King of the Boobs

Díablo

Milk man

Firehead

The rich, gay uncle

There isnt a single minute he doesn't find these hysterical. He thinks it's a charming human world custom, to give someone a nickname. He also thinks it shows how comfortable with him MC is.

His favorite is easily DD Dia. Mc noticed his body? *smirk* interesting

Why are so many of them boob related? MC does realize he is a male, right?

The rich, gay uncle. Diavolo has no words. Absolutely shook.

Lucifer overheard some of these...was appalled MC was harassing the PRINCE with their ridiculous nicknames.

He was about to go off on a terrified MC, when Diavolo stepped in laughing and told Lucifer....

"Calm down, Mom."

Mc nearly choked on their own suppressed laughter

Barbatos had to quickly usher them away so MC could openly laugh and therefore breathe

Barbatos 🧐👀🐀🕓

Barbie

Simply one hell of a butler

Sebas-chan

Time warp man

Chuck E Cheese

The cake maker

Understands every single reference, is actually surprisingly cool with it, as long as MC doesn't embarrass him with it.

Diavolo catches wind of what MC is calling Barbaties, eventually starts adopting the nicknames

The only one Barbatos doesn't like is "Chuck E Cheese", because he hates rats so so much. How dare they compare him to one of those disgusting creatures?

Simeon🌙🤍🌹🌈

Boomer

Dad joke central

Beautiful man

Sinful shoulders

Angel Dad

Sin-ammon Roll

Simeon can't decide between being flattered or appalled. He's not THAT old. Nor is he a father! Well, maybe more of a father figure in regards to Luke, but still! He doesn't tell THAT many dad jokes.. right?

Blushes intensely at Beautiful man and Sinammon roll. Wonders if MC really means that or is just teasing him.

Eventually he makes the stupid decision to ask Asmo....wrong move. Asmo ends up laying out all of Simeon's desires towards MC, the week following he can't even look MC in the face. MC has no clue what happened and starts to think it was their fault.

They confront Simeon about it after a while, and Simeon full on breaks and confesses to MC

Asmo takes full credit for this happening

Solomon😑🖤💫🧙🏻‍♂️

Shady Lady

The sus one

Kinky dude

Draco malfoy

Doesn't mind MC having insulting nicknames for him....he has them too. Starts swapping them with MC to see who can make the other laugh harder.

Sometimes, the brothers will sit in and listen while they exchange them, and they'll keep score and vote on who wins

Eventually, Diavolo and Simeon get involved

Barbatos caters these events

Luke😇👶🏼🌸🧁

Baby angel

Son

Woof

Puppy

Little doggo

The poor boy has no idea which one he hates more. Gets so flustered whenever MC calls him one of these that his whole face turns red

Simeon tells him its adorable every time without fail

This makes Luke even worse. All MC has to do is call Luke one of the names and its fair game for Luke hunting

The only one he actually...kind of...likes is Son. He likes the idea of MC as a parent figure.

Which leads him to realize: what if MC and Simeon got together! Then MC WOULD be his parent

Gets Solomon and Barbatos to help bring MC and Simeon together

They end up bombarding the two with an obnoxious Valentine's day-esque cake

Did it work?

[parsnipspages]

Can you do a hc request of the brothers reacting to an mc with super soft skin and hair and always covers up but when they don't the boys are always feeling her up (non sexually tho like braid their hair just to feel it in their fingers or run their hands over their arms ect.) And mc gets all shy about it but secretly loves the attention 😘😘💞💞

Mood actually, one of my best friends in Highschool used to sit behind me whenever she could so she could play with my hair all class because it’s soft. Had a massive crush on her as well. Good times. ANYWAY. enough about me. the way I write these kind of just destroys gender, so Long Haired GN!MC it is!

I did my best to not make these creepy, just cute and personal.

Lucifer: He would never speak of it, but he loved doing your hair in sophisticated and simple styles. Running his fingers in the soft locks and enjoying the even softer blush on your cheeks. Fingertips brushing your neck in the most delicate ways. He was intoxicated with the contrast of your softness to the devildoms sharp edges and his own ragged soul. The time spent with you in private was dear to him, calming. You spend more time in his study than you realized, and he would never ask you to leave his side, not that you cared to leave anyway.

Mammon: The avatar of greed was already greedy for your presence before he figured out that running his hands through your hair was like petting a damn chinchilla. His favorite thing to do to calm down became braiding your hair, then undoing the braid and repeating. The repetition was soothing as he spoke to you about all of his worries. Holding your hand in public was his favorite, running his thumb in circles over the back of your hand. He treasures the shy look you give him as he does it, but you never pull away. Leviathan:

He didn’t figure it out for quite a while actually, not until one day he lost himself in the exciting news of a new Ruri Hana Live Show and he swept you into a hug, his eyes wide as he felt your hair. Quick to pull way and face as red as your own from the sudden outburst. He sat closer on anime nights from then on, playing with the ends of your hair as he watched the shows. He loved the feeling of your hands in his hair, the soft touch just melted him. He never got to see the true levels of your shyness on the matter, never doing these things outside of his room, you were happy to indulge him as much as you could. Satan: Satan found out that his favorite human was soft inside and out one day as he had begun to lose himself to his anger, he felt your soft touch on the sides of his face. Focusing on the light pink flush of your cheeks he calmed as you smoothed kind words into him. He loved to let you rest your head in his lap as he played with your hair, a treat just for him. Waxes poetic about you as he does so. Asmodeus: Oh Asmo knew the instant he saw your face and your hair darling. He knew quality when he saw it. It wasn’t a week into your stay that he was rubbing lotions into your hands and oils into your nail beds, amazed at just how stunningly soft you were. His deft fingers pulling your hair into amazing up-dos with care and grace, even if the soft strands fell out of the styles nearly as fast as he could make them. He loved dressing you up and pampering you. Only the best darling. Only the best for the best, and he could treasure the innocent blush on your face the whole time. Your time together was an absolute gift. Beelzebub: He honesty did like it, but he really didn’t want to make you uncomfortable. So he gave you soft headpats, and reassuring arm rubs. He was so careful, you were so much softer than him, so delicate. He would never forgive himself if he hurt you. If you leaned your head against his shoulder as he ate he would never feel more relaxed. He never asked though, and let you do what you were comfortable with. It was more than enough for him, taking everything he could get like a starving man, and you loved to indulge him in your little ways. Belphegor: Taking naps with you was his absolute favorite. He only bought the most comfortable clothes, the softest sheets, the fluffiest pillows and the warmest blankets. It was only natural how mush he loved to bury his face in your hair as he napped, or burrowing himself into your shoulder as he hugged you. You were absolutely sublime and he would fight whoever tried to take you from him. He nicknames you his little cloud.

kyalin - part 3

Tw: mention of suicide

Huge thank you, to @linguini17 for beta-ing the chapter. Most competent pasta, you’ll find! 😉

Work

She bent the freshly polished armor around her core, trying to make as little noise as possible. Kya still lay in their bed, occasionally snoring. Lin never understood how someone could contort their body the way Kya did and actually sleep. She herself would probably wake up with tense shoulders and at least two dislocated extremities. Getting out of bed without waking Kya was a challenge. She was a sound sleeper (unlike Lin), but also a clingy one. It had taken Lin a while to get used to the arms around her waist every night, and even when they started out with some space in between them, sooner or later Kya’s legs were sure to find a way around Lin’s. Leaning down to close a drawer, her badge loosened and fell to the ground.

"Damn it!“ she muttered and looked over to the bed, where silver hair was brushed aside to reveal blue squinting eyes. "I’m sorry. Go back to sleep, I’m just getting ready.“ She walked over to plant a kiss on Kya's forehead, causing her to close her eyes once more.

The metalbender walked out into the kitchen. Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, she thought. Kya had found her way into Lin's subconscious and kept reminding her of little things like that. Lin rolled her eyes at her own thoughts and grabbed a piece of fruit before bending the Satomobile keys her way and heading for the door. She turned around to find Kya yawning, not bothering to bring a hand up to her mouth. "Morning, beautiful, “ she slurred, leaning against the wall.

Lin paused at the compliment. Kya had called her beautiful many times, but always after sex or when getting ready for some unnecessary event, never randomly like this. It made her blush as she didn’t know how to answer. Should she thank her? Compliment her back? She didn’t understand why she still struggled like that and – not wanting to stay silent – settled for a simple, but soft, "Good morning.“

"Don’t you want to say goodbye?“ Kya giggled when Lin opened the door to leave for the station. Lin's heart dropped and she swung around.

"What did you just say?“

Kya jumped slightly at the force in Lin's voice. "I was just –“

"Show me your hands!“ Lin demanded harshly, eyes focused on the waterbender’s hands. A ‘please’ wouldn’t hurt now and then, Kya thought to herself but obeyed, nonetheless. It was the morning and she was too tired to argue about something this insignificant.

Lin didn’t quite understand why, but something shut off inside her. Yet the sun shining in through the window seemed more blinding now and the room started spinning around her.

“What can my hands do for you?” Kya smirked, as she moved in her direction, fingers stretched out in front of her. If Lin wasn’t going to, she might as well close the distance between them. “What, no eye-roll?” she teased. “What’s wrong, chief?”

Lin shook her head but reached for something to lean on.

"I can’t breathe. Kya, I can’t breathe.“ Panic overlaid her voice as she staggered towards the couch. Kya reached out as Lin's knees gave out, forcing her to lower herself to the ground. Her eyes widened as Kya rushed over, but the confusion left her at a loss for words. Lin’s hands fumbled in a desperate attempt to bend away her armor. She couldn’t feel the metal, like someone had cut off her connection to the element, only increasing the panic.

"I can’t breathe. Why won’t it come off?“ Kya tried the old fashioned way, but had problems opening the switches on the sides of the metal plates, as Lin shivered beneath her hands.

"Try to calm your breathing,“ she said, doing her best to stay calm herself. When the armor lay on the floor next to them, Lin was sweating, her chest heaving. "I think I’m going to be sick,“ Lin said, clutching at her throat, trying to loosen the sling she felt, only to find her nails scratching her own skin.

Kya recognized what was happening and repositioned herself in front of Lin. "Lin. Look at me. You’re ok.“

Lin's eyes darted around the room until she felt her face being guided to meet the waterbender’s. "I can’t breathe Kya.“

"Yes, you can. You’re having a panic attack. Try to do this,“ Kya explained. She took a deep breath, her gaze moving to Lin's mouth as her fingers wrapped around her wrist to feel her pulse.

"Three seconds in,“ she said as Lin followed the instruction. "Now hold it. One, two, three. And breathe out for three again.“ After a few minutes Lin's pulse had eased and the redness of her face started to fade  .

"One, two, three.“ Kya‘s voice echoed in her ears. Only now did Lin realize the waterbender had framed her face with her fingers. It felt like a thousand hands were touching her simultaneously and she soon became overwhelmed. Kya let go immediately as she felt Lin backing away.

"You’re ok, I’m here," Kya said, feeling helpless. She didn't really know what to say to make Lin feel better and figured it would be best to wait. She had supported patients through panic attacks, but it felt different with her, like Lin was actually about to stop breathing.

"I’m s-sorry,“ Lin stuttered.

Kya instinctively shook her head. "Nothing to be sorry about. Try sitting up a little. You’re all hunched over.“

Lin's muscles felt sore as embarrassment crept up inside her. This had never happened to her. What had that even been? The tightness of her throat finally seemed to loosen and the rushing in her ears eased up as well. "I’m sorry, I didn‘t mean to scare you,“ she repeated. Kya helped her stand back up and then immediately let go, as Lin had found a solid stance.

"Worst part’s over,“ Kya promised. "But you’re staying home today.“

Lin instinctively tried to protest but she felt her body grow weak at the thought of going to work. She could only nod in agreement.

"Let’s get you into the shower first. We’ll see how you’re feeling after that.“

---------

"I’m sorry.“

Kya looked up from the magazine she had been reading. Lin had taken her time in the shower, after reassuring Kya that she was capable of doing so on her own.

"You don’t have to keep apologizing, you know.“

"I know, I’m –“

"Sorry?“ Kya smiled, patting on the couch next to her.

Lin sighed as she fell back onto the cushion, cuddling up to Kya until her head rested on the other woman‘s chest. "I have never had that happen to me,“ she mumbled.

"It was a panic attack. I’ve seen it with patients before long healing sessions. Not being allowed to move triggers most of them,“ she told her in an attempt to make Lin feel better.

She felt Lin trembling again and looked down to see tears tumbling onto her shirt. "It’s ok,“ she reassured her again. As Lin wept silently, Kya did her best not to break out in tears herself. “We’re going to work it out. It’ll be alright.“ It was a reminder to both of them that they had gone through worse and come out the other side; together.

---------

"We need to talk,“ Lin said with a serious tone in her voice. "I’ve been putting this off for way to long. Let’s just get it over with.“

Kya suppressed a snappy comment and got two glasses of water from the kitchen before sitting back down on the couch. "Then let’s talk,“ her soft voice answered. "Do you want to begin with that night?“

Lin’s expression darkened in response, instinctively wanting to escape the conversation she had finally built up the courage to start.

"Was it Ammon? Did he take your bending away again?“ Kya asked, noticing Lin‘s struggle.

"No, no. It was nothing like that,“ Lin said, "It actually started out quite…nice.“

They now sat next to each other, leaving space between them. Lin’s feet were touching the ground and she was leaning back semi-relaxed. Kya put her arm on the backrest, supporting the side of her head with the hand. She looked – and most likely was – more relaxed with one of her legs crossed and the other loosely hanging off the couch. While she looked at Lin, showing her that she had her full attention, the other woman kept her gaze straight ahead, not meeting her eyes. Kya knew it had nothing to do with her, but with Lin's difficulty when it came to sharing.

Lin had changed her mind and decided not to hold back any details even though she was afraid of Kya's reaction. With a deep breath, she started. Kya stayed silent until Lin had finished. Towards the end Kya held onto her own wrist, where Lin had clenched a few nights ago, now understanding the metalbender’s need to hold onto something.

"That sounds horrible. Knowing you…no wonder you didn’t want to talk about it,“ Kya finally exclaimed after letting the story sit in silence for a few minutes.

Lin raised her brows. "So you’re not disturbed?“ she asked in disbelieve.

"Not really. I mean, confused, yes. But I’m just really…I don’t know. I understand better now. Besides…you forget that we’ve both seen things that were way more disturbing than someone plunging a knife into their chest.“

Lin’s expression turned angry as Kya’s attempt to lighten up the situation backfired. "Except it wasn’t someone,“ she hissed. "It was you. And it wasn’t only once. That happens in a lot of my nightmares.“

"What, me committing suicide?“

Lin tried not to squirm. Hearing Kya talk about this dream like it was the weather made it less difficult, but it somehow hurt more.

"No. You, dying. What’s wrong with me? Why would I dream that?“

Kya looked at her trying to understand Lin’s train of thought. Lin’s instinct was always that if she didn’t understand something, there must be something wrong with her. Kya had a hard time, comprehending what had led to that conclusion this time. She couldn’t have been right, could she? Had Lin subconsciously noticed a change in Kya's mood, that she herself had missed? No, that couldn’t have been. There was no emptiness inside her now. She’d always felt emotions strongly: love, passion, joy, nostalgia even; more fear, fury and anger than she’d care to admit t. But she hadn’t experienced emptiness in a long time. When she had come across people during her travels that had lost people to suicide, they had always told her that emptiness had been the real cause of death.

"There’s nothing wrong with you,“ she finally answered, "It makes quite a lot of sense to me, the more I think about it.“

"We are still talking about the same dream, right?“ Lin reassured herself. "The one – and I cannot stress this enough – where you die. Knife-plungingly.“

Kya couldn’t suppress a smile at the change in Lin’s demeanor. "Yes. To me it does. If you’re up for it, I could tell you why.“

"If I’m up for it?“ Lin huffed. "I had a slight breathing issue. I’m not an invalid. Go ahead, do your thing.“

Kya ignored the remark as to not change the topic. One trauma at a time, she thought.

"You have a record of being left by people.“

Lin wanted to interject. This is exactly what she had dreaded, but she knew Kya would not tolerate being interrupted. It was one of her biggest pet peeves. So she waited and listened attentively.

"Your mom left. Your sister left. Your…“ she paused. "Tenzin did.“

Lin turned her head to look away, but Kya still saw her flinch. "What’s your point?“

Kya knew it was difficult for the other woman and she felt some kind of pride for even having gotten this far in the conversation. She knew, she didn’t have the luxury of holding back, so she might as well say what came to her mind.

"We expect to be able to rely on the people closest to us. When we learn over and over that they leave us to fend for ourselves, our minds start to learn that sooner or later – no matter how much we care for someone, or think they care for us – they will leave.“

Lin felt the tears well up in her eyes as she heard Kya's clear and brutally true words. She fought them back. She knew crying would make Kya stop and if she wanted to understand, she needed her to keep going.

"The mind will shield you from potential harm. It plays the scenarios you are afraid of, to give you a chance at dealing with part of the pain beforehand. That’s also why talking about it is so important,“ Kya smiled softly, "Because if we don’t, it will create more of those scenarios. You got a taste of that today and judging by earlier, that force surprised even you.“

Lin finally turned to face Kya as she started seeing the connections herself. "But you wouldn’t do that to yourself. You wouldn’t kill yourself. Why would my brain feel the need to process that?“

Kya shrugged her shoulders. "I don’t know. Maybe there’s a positive aspect to it.“

Lin couldn’t believe her ears. "Have you lost your mind?!“

"No, not to me dying,“ Kya quickly corrected, "I meant the way your brain chose to…off me.“ Lin stood up, no longer being able to sit. She started pacing a little.

"Well, it could not have chosen a more unlikely scenario. We have fought spirits, blood-benders and other maniacs with a god complex and still your brain thought that I would be the greatest danger to myself. You must have a great deal of faith in my survival abilities,“ Kya smiled. "Or in your protecting skills.“

"Yeah, because I did such a great job protecting you from that knife.“ Lin had a hard time keeping track of all the theories running around her head. she started massaging her temples. The tears had slipped her control when she started talking again. "I couldn’t even move. You noticed that. Not in my dream and not when you woke me up. I tried. It didn’t work.“

Kya sighed and walked over to draw Lin in for a tight embrace. Some kind of limit had been met and though she felt Lin’s wish to keep going, she felt the both of them being overwhelmed. Herself by the waves of confusion and fear, mixed with anger and frustration, that were sent her way. And Lin who felt that the emotions rushing over her made it even more difficult to grasp the context of the spoken sentences.

She welcomed the hug and it felt like Kya, who was still a whole lot calmer than she herself, transferred some of that calmness to her for every second they stayed intertwined.

They pulled away and looked at each other, while Kya brushed the tears away. "I don’t want to push you too hard,“ she said carefully, "That’s not the point of this.

They both weren’t sure what would happen if they continued right then and there and decided to think about the conversation while going about their day.

----

“Listen,” Lin cleared her throat, “I’m very thankful for your insight. I know that I can be a little…inaccessible, unavailable, whatever you want to call it, sometimes.”

Kya looked up from her soup, sucking a few noodles into her mouth before answering.

“You’re very welcome. I know it’s hard for you. I can’t see inside your head, but I’ll always listen to you,” she assured her.

A smile found its way across Lin’s face and her eyes filled with adoration, when she realized she didn’t even question, whether Kya was being sincere. She knew it.

“You do always look beautiful when you smile,” Kya added, “I think I saw you flinch at that this morning,” she kept talking as Lin blushed slightly, “Guess I’ll have to tell you more often, until you don’t anymore.”

Neverwinter Nights 2 - Main game

[spoilers ahead]

1. The first character I first fell in love with None. Over time, Khelgar and Neeshka grew on me. 

2. The character I never expected to love as much as I do now Sand. He can’t be more acid and sarcastic. I love a bitter scholar who found Academia too full of bullshit for them <3. I’m sad that apparently... he died in my game. :( I was expecting to meet him in Mask of The Betrayer. It seems, considering how little I played this, it won’t be the case. He was alive to the very end of the fucking battle against the Shadow King, but... considering what I learnt from some gargolyes in the dlc.... :( Sand, so sad. 

3. The character everyone else loves that I don’t. Elanee? I don’t know if “everyone loves her”. She is a love interest pushed down to your throat every fucking second. And it’s so creepy. The woman watched all your childhood and adulthood just to be like a blushing teenager with jealosy scenes.... it’s so creepy.

4. The character I love that everyone else hates Probably Sand. I know he has a demeanour like he is better than anyone else, but I read him more like “he is so tired of life full of bullshit. If it’s not elders full of tricky shit trying to trap him or kill him, it’s short-spam-life creatures being too childish”. He needs an equal in his lonely life.

5. The character I used to love but don’t any longer Bishop. I thought his character was 110% about survival. Rough, raw, animal-like survival. I like those chars too, but this one was a plain asshole “white man leader who has a lot of stupid manpain and ridiculous unjustified hate". xD Sure, he got really nice lines, and his motivation in general (until the ending) was kind of solid in terms of nvn2 (which is a bit clumsy, nice but clumsy). I was truly expecting his char to be something remotely similar to Ifan (divinity original sin 2) with some concept of “survival is also being too protector of the pack, because not all animals survive being angry and alone... in fact that usually never works, it’s the pack what guarantees survival”, but he came out like a full asshole with that macho philosophy of “Lone Wolf” combined with an incel preaching about manhood and the stereotypical white man leader of any game. Terrible. I can’t believe there is a fucking mod to romance him... that must be insane. XD I mean, I was so angry at the “revelation” of his “”mysterious past””.... he burnt his own village and Luskars just because “I hate everyone just because”. If you put some effort in trying to understand his motivation a bit more, it would be like “I hate people telling me what to do, but I end up doing it anyway. I wanted to join an assassin squad that probably was going to give me orders.... but I hate everyone because I hate orders”. Like... what? The way to throw a char across the window. xD His motivations are so fucking childish and psychopath at the same time. The “big alpha” xD. Almost the same as Qara. At least Qara is more free, and has more motivation... she is a sorcerer and that went to her head. Period. Nothing more. Bishop had a whole appearance that there was some kind of deep dark shit behind his look.... and it was just a psychopath tantrum. XD

6. The character I would totally smooch Neeshka and Shandra. 

7. The character I’d want to be like Sand! He is really smart, and has a LOT of knowledge and a calm behaviour despite all that bickering with Qara. And his wits.... oh, my.

8. The character I’d slap Qara. Yes, please. Fucking asshole, she ended dead in the final battle.... Well, fuck you, Qara, Speshul snowflake. Eat my fireballs (I’ve played a wizard). 

9. A pairing that I love Ammon and Shandra. It would have been nice to see them interact like family. Weird family, but family in the end. Also Torio and Sand. They are master of throwing bullshit to each other.

10. A pairing that I despise Elanee with anyone else. Bishop with anyone else. Elanee and Bishop. God, the pair of wrongness in there. XD

Update: I’ve finished the game series. No, Sand didn’t die! :D
