Twice’s 10th member is overworked

It was another day with thousands of things to do on her schedule, from a meeting with JYP (sorry I always imagine it whispered lol) to practice with the girls she calls her sisters. She can't take it anymore but knows there's no other option besides slaying and praying that she doesn't faint from exhaustion.

As she gets to the meeting with PD-nim he greets her in such an excited way she wants to slap him -with respect, or not-

JYP - Hey Y/N! How are you doing?

Y/N - I'm fine PD-nim and hope you're too. Not meaning to rush you but, what's this meeting about?

JYP - Well, I noticed you're receiving a lot of good comments about you're dancing so we agreed that you're the best to film the challenges on TikTok for Set Me Free!!

Y/N - Really? But I already got so much to do, any of the girls could do it perfectly

JYP - I guess... however, this could disappoint the fans, don't you think so?

Y/N - Okay. I'll do it for the fans!

JYP - That's the spirit! But don't leave yet, we need to talk about your schedule

Y/N - What about it?

At the moment the only thing Y/N had in mind was how good it would be if some of the events she has were cancelled. She's at her breaking point and no one seems to notice.

JYP - We got some modelling with A'pieu for the new collection they're planning to release, isn't that amazing?

Y/N - I'm tired JYP-appa... Can't you deny it? It's too much

JYP - I get you Y/N but this is an incredible opportunity for the group, not only you but the girls too, denying this could affect the rest of TWICE.

Y/N - Fine. Is the meeting done now?

JYP - Yes, you can go Y/N. See you soon!

Y/N - Bye PD-nim, thank you.

After this horrible experience, she takes off to the practice room to start the routine with the girls, when she got there they're already started and in sync.

Y/N - Hey unnies, I'm sorry for being late! PD-nim held me up on a meeting *rolls eyes*

Jihyo - That's okay bae, what happened that you're so annoyed?

Sana - My hon is feeling bad, who do I have to hurt?

Y/N - Hopefully you don't wanna hurt PD-nim, Sana unnie lol

Sana - It depends :)

Chaeyoung - Scary...

Dahyun - Fr bro...

Nayeon - Anyway- tell us what's going on kid!

Y/N - Okay, okay, I'd if you let me speak in the first place *crosses arms*

Jeongyeon - Tzuyu's personality is rubbing on you...

Tzuyu - As it should, you go sis!

Y/N - Thanks sis <3

Jihyo - Tell us now.

Y/N - So... I got pissed 'cause PD put more things on my schedule and you must know how packed it already is, like dang how much more he wants me to do???

Mina - Well-

Y/N - And then he tells me that if I don't go I'm gonna affect you guys, I don't want that :(

Mina - WHAT?

Momo - Wow, Mina screamed, this is gonna become serious reallyyyyy soon...

Mina - I'm gonna become someone's nightmare.

Sana - I mean, I'm not against it...

Jihyo - Neither am I, no one treats my kid this way!

With all the love she's feeling Y/N finally let go and starts crying, it was so overwhelming and now her sisters are there making her remember she has people she can rely on. Dahyun is the first one to get near enough to engulf their maknae in a warm hug that the others soon join.

Chaeyoung - We're here.

Mina - We love you.

Nayeon - More than you could ever know sweetheart.

Y/N - Tysm unnies, it's just 'cause I couldn't take it anymore. There's too much to do, I can't even sleep and eat well, it's been a while...

Jeongyeon - What do you mean babe? You're stopped eating since when?

Y/N - Well... I'm sorry! I didn't mean to.

Jihyo - This doesn't answer the question Y/N L/N, respond right now.

Y/N - It's been 3 days but it's good, I'm perfectly okay!

When these words left their maknae's mouth they couldn't even reply, all of them full of thoughts about how they didn't notice and how they're horrible unnies. They should have seen it coming, their baby always got home late, bags under her eyes and her body becoming thinner each day that passed along the week. Her eyes were full of emotion but her words said the contrary, each day she came to the dorm saying the same "I'm fine, good night unnies.". It was clear and they were blind, the unnies could only feel more stupid as each second inside their own minds passed. The first reaction after some time was to be angry, but they couldn't do anything about it, they took so long that the maknae fell asleep, as she must.

Jihyo - I can't believe I didn't see it, girls! Let's divide ourselves, some of us go to talk with PD-nim and the others go take her to bed at the dorm. Who wants to do what?

Mina - I wish I could stay with her but I already called it, I'm gonna make this man's life miserable :)

Sana - Amen to that honey. I'll go to the dorm.

Dahyun - We from the SMC are tired from school, we wanna go to the dorm unnie.

Momo - I'll go to the dorm so I can carry the kid!

Jihyo - Okay, then the rest of the unnie line stays here with me.

Jeongyeon - Perfect, let's move girls, JYP must be ready to leave and we need to get there before he goes.

As the unnie line beside Momo left, the others got to work and fixed the practice room and their bags so they could head to the dorm. After calling their manager and informing them of what happened, Momo got near Y/N and gave her a kiss on the head before lifting her bridal style ('cause Y/N's princess ✨) and got to the van. She put Y/N on her lap so it'd be easier to lift her when they arrived, Dahyun to the right and Tzuyu to the left. The maknae line all slept till they stopped at the front of the dorm. Momo woke up the girls, beside Y/N, and carried her to the SMC room laying her near Dahyun that was sitting there waiting for their maknae.

After Chaeyoung and Tzuyu took a bath, they stayed with Y/N so Dahyun could shower too. When they all laid down they felt warm because of the puppy pile and soon fell asleep again. When Momo got there she could only coo quietly and take a photo to send on the group chat. As the unnie line saw the photo after screaming and dissing JYP-nim, they felt at peace with everything again and could only think:

We love our dear maknaes.

A/N: I apologise for any errors, English is not my first language. Pls, let me know if there's something wrong, ty for reading <3

Hello, I just started to read your False Lovers series, but I had some questions about it that I kept thinking about.

As of now I only read up to chapter ix, but in this chapter William in his later to mc says that he will stop bothering her if she disagrees and then proceeds to blackmail her (which I also thought to be quite out of character for him), then she whips out her gun to threaten him (didn't really understand why she did that and what she'd have accomplished with it) and the he proposes to her, but I i remember correctly it was said that she came up with the idea (there was also the fact that mc mentioned that the night she killed the noble with William is what led to their engagement, but I don't really understand how that is).

Thank you for asking these questions anon!! Don’t feel it was rude whatsoever, I actually find this helpful in fixing any plot holes or just getting me back into writing in general.

• I agree that at first glance, the whole blackmailing thing seems OOC but if you look at the original mtp manga, William is manipulative and does sometimes come close to blackmailing people, although he tries to do the most just thing he can. He is kind of an asshole to mc at first, and I wanted to highlight that with the blackmailing, to show he is just as bad as her. Because the story is told mainly from mc’s perspective, we don’t really see much of William’s feelings and actions, so I try to highlight them in subtle ways, this being one of them. I also wanna add that she doesn’t not want to help him, she just hates being around him, so the blackmail isn’t really that severe.

• the gun thing is more of a funny bit than it is purposeful, but I guess it also highlights how easy it is for William to trigger her (haha get it? Trigger? Like gun trigger?), and the whole second place thing contributing to her anger issues. Because this is a reworked fic from 2022, the original scene was a lot more intense and there were genuine murder threats involved, but later became contrasting to the story and made the romance between William and mc more sudden and forced (tbf I wasn’t much of a good writer back then), so the gun was a sort of Easter egg and a reference to the original scene for those who have read both the original and reworked versions. William was actually supposed to propose his plan to mc in the chapter where he breaks into her room, so the gun makes more sense if he was trespassing but I kinda wanted him to break his leg for funsies

• Mc doesn’t ever outright tell William to marry her, but it is hinted at in that chapter and in earlier ones that she did think of marrying him, such as when she received the letter from her mother asking about marriage, and towards the end of the scene she seems irritated because having a husband would mean involving him in her own plans (which would be risky because she’s literally planning on killing a bunch of colonisers), so she does kind of think that William would be a good candidate, and he is her type, as well as being intelligent and able to help her with her plans whilst she helps him with his. They already flirt a lot too, and I’ll add to this more when I make the extra prequel chapters I’ve been planning for after the final problem arc. This part of chapter 9 kind of shows this more. Later on she also does kind of hint that they need to get married for the plan to work. I would’ve made her ask more directly but I’m not a fan of women proposing to men.

• The whole Ashfordshire scandal was one of the few times mc and William worked together, and was very intense and planned out considering the nature of it. William helping mc with her plan also showed to her his ability to do so in the future whilst making mc feel she owed him something in return, even though William disagrees. There’s also the moment where she kisses his cheek so there’s that slight tension and William’s just all ‘I need to put a ring on her finger NOW 🥰😍’ but much more in character lol.

Anyways, please feel free to ask more questions if you need to!!

Absolutely love your akusai analysis stuff its so good omg.

Do you have any more thoughts on them?

Thank you for the kind words, I really appreciate it! As for my thoughts on Akusai, well, after beating Fire Emblem Three Houses recently, I do have a few thoughts. I know, I'm late to the party on 3H. (I actually loved 3H and would love to write metas about those ships lol). But anyways, regarding Akusai. It's a bit of a rant and there's minor spoilers for FE3H, so I'll put it under the cut.

Okay, so Sylvix felt like it was everything Akusai was supposed to be. It touched on all the same themes, too. In 3H, you've got a childhood friend trio. The standard two males and a female. On the surface it seems like the girl and the outgoing redhead goofball are a thing. But they treat each other more like bros. He and the quiet blue-haired sword guy had a much more intimate bond with each other, complete with a special promise™ to always be together and redhead being protective of blue. The redhead never wants to grow up and change because he doesn't wanna fulfill the heteronormative life script of getting married and having kids.

He is longing to go back to his childhood days but is sad at how much blue has changed since they were kids and has apparently outgrown their closeness. He hides his angst behind a smile and womanizing. Blue was once a meek clingy crybaby but now he is surly and obsessed with growing stronger. Deep down he is still an uke who secretly longs to be redhead's waifu. But he has a lot of shame related to his sensitivity and gender nonconformity. He distances himself from others, but boy does he get irritated if redhead flirts with anyone else.

I do wish the game would have just come right out and tell you that they're gay for each other (and so does this gaming site). I get why it didn't. Still, it didn't really hide it too much. They have a paired ending where they spend their whole lives playfully teasing each other like just when they were kids, never get married, and die together in each other's arms. It's the most romantic ending in the whole game, if you ask me. And Sylvix is SUPER popular and well received by the fandom. Both in Japan and the West. They have soooo much fan content. There are still some dudes who say they're just friends because ew icky gay. But most people in the fandom are able to tell they're queer-coded and are fine with it. In fact, the fandom was so fine with it that they released an overtly queer dude in the DLC, strictly due to popular demand.

3H is not a slam dunk with gay romance since much of it (particularly MLM) relies on subtext. But it still had more balls than most JRPG series and it definitely was a step in the right direction. We all know that Soriku is the most popular ship. The end of KH2 was total fujoshi fuel. But Soriku never had any chance in hell of being canon. KH is a video game shonen anime. Sora/Riku bromance is "safe". They can capitalize on shipteasing them to their female fans, but they won't alienate their male fans because Kairi is still very obviously the love interest for Sora. I found Akusai to be a lot more compelling because it was legitimately queer-coded.

Axel was queer-coded from the very beginning. His close friendship with Roxas in KH2 made people question his sexuality all the way back in 2006 and Akuroku rivaled Soriku for a time. And I do think that Axel always meant to be queer. Although personally, I did not get the impression that he was in love with Roxas. I got the sense that he probably had a best friend back when he was a human. And it was this dead best friend that he truly yearned for. The sweet and innocent Roxas reminded Axel of his human best friend and he latched onto him to help him forget the memories of days long past. That was my headcanon back in 2006 when KH2 first came out.

So, I was really happy when Days/BBS came out and it basically confirmed my theory that Axel was truly hung up on his human best friend and saw Roxas as a kind of replacement for him. And Isa was also very queer-coded. BBS!Isa has a more distinctly feminine design than any other boy in the series. He had very girlsh eyes and lips, small hands, long hair. And Saix's Mystery Gear is very cutesy-looking. Traditionally, the moon is viewed as a feminine symbol. And Saix's weapons in 358/2 Days were named after moon goddesses. They could have easily picked male moon gods, but they chose female goddesses like Selene and Artemis. It signifies to the player that, "Hey, this character does not follow the conventional gender stereotypes."

When you play 358/2 Days, and you get to the part where Axel is talking about love, you realize he's talking about his most precious memories from his human life, just like with all the other stuff like summer vacation and the red sunset. Akusai was not just superficial fujobait. Even if it was all subtext, it was a genuine depiction of two queer male characters who loved each other romantically. Axel is not straight. That’s a big reason why I was so mad that KH3 pushed their relationship off to the side and treated saving Isa as so much less important compared to saving Roxas. And it was so annoying how Saix had to mention Subject X whenever he might have seemed a little too obsessed with Axel otherwise.

Last year, Nomura said that he intended to show more of Lea and Isa's backstory in the future, so I've just been waiting for more content. I hope that we can get their story without Subject X overshadowing them like she did in KH3. I'm...cautiously optimistic. I expect this subplot to be included in Missing Link, since it is quite literally a missing link of the story. Axel is super popular and a queer-coded backstory with his childhood best friend would be very well received by the modern KH fandom, IMO. People are a LOT more accepting of gay content than they were in 2006. We've come a long way. And personally, I just love the idea that the tough cold asshole Saix's human self was actually a super sweet cutie who was in love with Lea. I really think the KH fandom would love that idea, too, if the writers were ever allowed to actually explore it. And a niche mobile game is probably a safer medium for that type of content than a mainline console game overseen by Disney, I guess. At the very least, if they ever put an Isa figurine into ML, I will whale for it if I have to.

[Interview TL] Holostars 3rd Anniversary special long interview with 1st gen - Part One

Source

Their bond gradually deepens because of "That Reason"!?

A gathering of the 1st gen members: Hanasaki Miyabi, Kanade Izuru, Arurandeisu, and Rikka! Special interview to commemorate Holostars' 3rd anniversary (Part One)

In the first part of this interview, we will be talking about their activities in Holostars thus far, their strength, and their growth.

Enjoy reading this article until the very last, for every "Holostars Fans" and also for new people who want to know more about them!

–The gathering of the 1st generation of Holostars!–

──Since this might be the first time some of our readers hear about you, please introduce yourself as a start!

Miyabi: I'm Hanasaki Miyabi from Holostars' 1st generation! I mainly stream various games and chatting as well. My favorite game genre is MMORPG, I play a lot of online games. My favorite food is hamburger, but because of my diet, I recently started eating more broccoli. I usually do things that I want and like at my own pace, while doing my best in my idol activities!

Izuru: I'm Kanade Izuru from Holostars 1st generation. I like music and nature, as well as myself. For my current activities, my favorite ones are playing guitar and singing stream. Sometimes I played the piano and came up with different variations of the songs I sang. This might be self-proclaim at most, but I think among every VTubers around I have the most variations when it comes to song selection...

Arurandeisu: Is that so!?

Izuru: I think I sang around 600 songs already. Outside of streaming, I often sang whenever I was alone or when I went skinny dipping.

──Skinny dipping!?

Izuru: Yeah. Both of my outdoor and indoor hobbies are quite extreme.

I don't have a lot of friends due to my harsh personality, but after joining Holostars I managed to find people who could accept my personality and since I started enjoying my idol activities as well everyday has been really fun!

Arurandeisu: Whenever Izuru went to the sea, he often sends me some photos through LINE

Izuru: I thought he would understand my boyish impulses best, and since he seemed to be the type who took care of his body well and carries an outdoor aura similar to mine. I can just send him the photos as it is (lol).

Arurandeisu: I guess you're right, you did send a lot of interesting photos (lol)

──By the way, what kind of interesting photos Izuru-san has sent to you so far?

Arurandeisu: There was one where he was about to start diving into the sea, but since the winds were pretty strong it looked like a photo for a movie poster because of how "lively" it felt

Izuru: The one with me carrying a harpoon on my back huh–

Arurandeisu: Yeah! It gave me a "Heading to the war nau" feeling when I received it on LINE.

It was so cool.

Miyabi: What–! I wanna see it!

Arurandeisu: And the person who received such a cool photo is the one and only Arurandeisu, the genuine Italian Man of Holostars 1st generation. I don't go out pretty often but I love training my body so I like doing muscle training, recently I got really into DJing as well.

──Oh— What cool hobbies you have!

Arurandeisu: It feels like I'm able to have a lot of fun with every Holostars fan whenever I play and connect each Holostars song myself, so I think I did find quite a nice hobby.

──Do you also make your own song?

Arurandeisu: I originally liked rap music, But doing all the songwriting by myself is quite difficult to do... I did buy the necessary equipment and challenged myself once but it didn't turn out well (lol). Learning about songwriting from scratch requires a lot of calories as well, so it's quite impossible for me now. As I thought about how to approach rapping and its depth, I decided to become a DJ.

Other than that I also do gaming stream, chatting as well as various things. You would see me streaming over at YouTube pretty often, so some even referred to me as the "Streaming Monster" a lot (lol).

──Thank you very much. Next is Rikka-san, if you would.

Rikka: I'm the "Holoroid" of Holostars 1st generation, Rikka. A holoroid is an android made by Cover Corp. by cultivating various technologies they had. Similarly with Izuru, I often do guitar and singing streams, as well as making songs and doing various music-related projects.

Also, I have a program called "RiTunes Labo" where I invite VTubers and even non-VTubers guests for a chat and a duet session. It's a program that aims to give broader reach through music, so it is mainly aimed to be watched easily even for those who are not familiar with VTubers.

As for games I personally like those "death game" types of stuff, I also occasionally stream games that you can clear repeatedly as a way to pass time.

──This may seem out of nowhere, but there was a time when I participated in Rikka-san's viewer participation tetris stream. Everyone is really, really strong...

Rikka: Right! My viewers are truly strong there... I think the most amazing thing is that there's someone who joined the game and turned out to be one of the players who has reached the world ranking

Arurandeisu: Is that for real!?

Rikka: That sure was a hellish time... Tetris players are truly fearsome people. Anyway, I often do live sessions during my anniversary and do a lot of song covers so I would be happy if you could check me out starting with my music.

–The "real" start of Holostars began after a certain meetup in December 2020!?–

──This year will mark the 3rd year since the start of Holostars, how do you all feel about it?

Miyabi: I feel glad to be able to say this now, finally it has been 3 years since then. Personally, I felt like I've been a Holostars member for a longer period than that, though in reality, it's only been for 3 years instead.

Izuru: Right. I do feel that 3 years is a comparatively long period. At the same time, there's more stuff to do once we pass this 3rd year as well.

Arurandeisu: Now that you mentioned it, 3 years sure passed down rather quickly. I think as long we keep doing things that we enjoy, even a mere 6, 10, or even 15 years wouldn't feel that long for us

Izuru: Something like that yeah.

Arurandeisu: Yep. Just gonna let time pass by itself... (lol)

(Everyone started laughing)

Izuru: Sorry, we're just like this normally (lol).

──It's alright! Feel free to talk about any topics too...!

Arurandeisu: At least write only the good lines please (lol). How about you Rikka-kun?

Rikka: I'm not particularly the type who cares about how long I've been on this road, but I feel like the things I could do from 3D and various lives keep adding on as more time passes. The fact that we're able to hold this anniversary event is proof that we've received even more support this year, so I feel really thankful for it. For that, I'd like to continue doing my best for the next 4, 5th years and more so I wouldn't take this support for granted.

Izuru: How wonderful...!

Arurandeisu: Can you make it like I was the one who said that, please, and thank you.

──(laughs). Let's reminisce about everyone’s activities up until today this time, is there a moment that leave a strong impression so far?

Miyabi: That would be the 1st ACT (concert).

Izuru/Arurandeisu/Rikka: Yeah.

Miyabi: It's the one event where I truly felt I've done "everything" with everyone, from singing, dancing, and training. We've done a lot of solo stuff before but this was the first time that the 9 of us are working together for a big event, so we often practice together as well.

Rikka: It's the moment we feel the most "Idol" I think.

Arurandeisu: It's like doing club activities so it's quite fun. We often make plans like "Going to studio xx for practice this month and day".

Miyabi: Yeah true! After practicing for a few hours, we usually had dinner together as well.

Izuru: Rather than an adolescent complex, this feels more like a "Second Adolescent" moment instead.

Rikka: We don't have that much time to hang out once we reach adulthood after all.

Arurandeisu: That's right. Normally, we wouldn't be able to experience things like this.

Miyabi: Right... There's also a time when we're recording stuff at the studio, every moment is truly important.

Arurandeisu: Looking back, we sure did tons of stuff huh–

Izuru: Even within that one concert, there are lots of things we experienced so it's quite a big deal.

──So that concert must've been quite a special moment for all of you. How about from each of you personally, Are there any that leave a strong impression too?

Miyabi: Personally it was when I had an original song written by my favorite producer, 40mP. When I met him and received guidance directly, it really left a deep impression on me. Both of us were actually quite shy, so during our first meeting both of us were pretty nervous that it created an awkward situation instead (lol).

But even so, when I asked him for a handshake he was really kind and nice until the end. To have my favorite artist compose a song for me is already something I will remember deeply, and at the same time, it remains a precious memory for me.

Arurandeisu: It's been 2 years since then huh... I originally did demon-slaying and my idol activity was merely a side job. I then joined Holostars as a way to challenge myself and it was right when I changed my focus as an idol, that itself might’ve been the biggest turning point in my life so far.

After that, my activities got more varied as time passed, and I started taking singing and dancing lessons for live performances. I believe I managed to do all that because I've started to take myself more seriously as part of Holostars. Because of that turning point, I was able to give my 100% percent in this world, and I think that's how I managed to stand until now.

Izuru: (while sniffling on purpose) ...I see now.

Arurandeisu: Do you really have to put on a fake sobbing now!?

All: (laughs)

Arurandeisu: For me, that turning point itself is something that leaves a deep impression on me.

Rikka: I think it was quite a nice story.

Izuru: This might sound similar to Miyabi's answer, but I guess having a solo original song would really leave a deep impression on anyone. Before I joined Holostars... Right after I graduated middle high, I bought my guitar, and then immediately started doing street live although badly.

I tried conveying all those various memories into lyrics and made a song out of it, but I also asked someone to help with composing it under my supervision.

Once it took a proper shape and people could finally listen to my songs, it became a valuable experience for me and one that left a strong impression on me.

There's also one more thing actually...

──And that is...?

Izuru: It's when every Holostars member gathered together in December 2020 for an offline meetup. That was the first time we saw each other directly and had a proper conversation together. For me, this meetup holds a special meaning in my life as we managed to be acquaintances in such a unique way.

Before that, it felt like everyone was so far away but once we met each other, I feel like we've only gotten closer since then.

Arurandeisu: Oh right, it does feel like we "finally" met after a while.

Izuru: Usually we can just use Discord to work on something, but because of that first contact, I think it started a habit where we would meet up somewhere to discuss something together so everything could run smoothly. All of us seem to like each other equally by now.

Arurandeisu: Yep yep.

Rikka: For me, it would be my 3D debut stream. I'm the first person among all my Holostars peers who received a 3D, but on the debut day, some said how "easy" it must've been for me. Rather than worrying about criticism, I was more nervous and wondered if I could "pull it off well" instead and felt quite afraid at that time.

But in the end, I managed to muster up courage thanks to the feeling I tried to convey in my songs. I think that stream still holds a special place in my memory until now. Other than that, I also thought the December 2020 meetup had a deep impression on me.

Izuru: In a way, everything starts there. If we think about it like that, when Miyabi and myself debuted– around June 2019... It took 1.5 years until Holostars actually started then...?

Miyabi: Ahahaha (lol).

Arurandeisu: Don't crush our start line like that (lol). Before that we were mostly on our own, wasn't it? There was a time when I met up with Rikka-kun to have lunch before meeting with everyone else.

Rikka: Ah right. I think that's the first time we met Roberu too.

Miyabi: You two also collab’ed pretty often too, right?

Arurandeisu: Yeah. I did meet everyone else for a short time as well, but the December 2020 event was the first time where everyone gathered together.

──I see!

Izuru: I can't say what specifically, but I actually prepared a huge surprise for everyone during that meetup

Miyabi/Arurandeisu/Rikka: (laughs)

Izuru: That first contact is where I'm willing to give that much effort.

Arurandeisu: That surprise was the most interesting part but we can't really tell you what is it about (lol).

Rikka: Now that you mentioned it. Honestly, it really was the most interesting part (lol).

Izuru: For real!? I put in a lot of inside jokes so I couldn't really explain it, but I guess I sure did prepare quite a surprise then.

──I'm quite curious about the content myself, but everyone's excitement seems to have explained it well enough.

Rikka: You talked about Ten-chan as well right? At first, he looked quite stern and wasn't sure if he "Would meet everyone else again" but now he had this sense of duty to be involved (lol).

Arurandeisu: It's like he's coming there prepared, that's what I thought.

Izuru: Nowadays he hardly feels like how he used to be, it's almost surprising.

Arurandeisu: That's right! It's already at a point where he would casually stay over at my place. Everyone feels like they slowly change over time.

──Personally, I think Holostars "playful chattery" is one of their strongest charms, so how does everyone decide on a "role" between each banter?

Arurandeisu: I don't think we ever decided on a specific role when it comes to bantering... I think, it just came naturally in each group.

Rikka: But Aru-san always gets the bullied role.

Izuru: (laughs)

Miyabi: Yeah he's the bullied one.

Arurandeisu: I can feel everyone's love from it.

Miyabi: Aru-san is good at natural tsukkomi and he can do boke as well, so he can adjust his reaction depending on the situation I think.

Arurandeisu: Thank you kindly (bashful).

Izuru: Just between us here, Aru-san actually had quite a potty mouth at the back.

Arurandeisu: Hey!

──(laughs)

Izuru: As for someone with an obvious role, I think that would be Rikka-chan and Astel-kun who evoke the feeling of "peace" and "in motion", making them the "driving force" for Holostars members themselves.

Rikka: You might be right, Astel carries a totally different kind of spectrum compared to me.

Izuru: Other than that, there’s Shien who appears as the balancer between both sides. Then there’s Oga with his generosity and multitude of talents. Roberu is always lively and good at talking, and...

Miyabi: How about me?

All: (laughs)

Izuru: You weren't as reliable back then, but recently you've been involving yourself a lot more so I think Miyabi's opinion is also important at some point.

Rikka: He's starting to be more open about voicing his opinion, right?

Izuru: Whenever Temma gets paired with Miyabi-kun, there's a sense of neverending banter in a good way within him.

Miyabi: Not knowing what might happen gives you a bit of excitement don't you think?

Rikka: He might be a genius in a sense.

Izuru: Now that I think about it although I initially thought he often thinks irregularly, It's actually something that makes the most sense. He's also good at keeping everyone's spirit at an all-time high.

Arurandeisu: If you put it like that, he might be the ultimate balancer among us all.

Izuru: He reminds me of a shooting star at some point though (lol).

Miyabi: In a way, it's pretty amazing that each of us has our own "role" within the group even if there's a lot of us now.

Arurandeisu: Everyone seems to be always quick to position themselves whenever we're meeting up.

Rikka: It's like they know what to do right away, and that makes the atmosphere around feel much better.

Izuru: That makes us pretty much capable of doing anything I guess.

Arurandeisu: Everyone is pretty high-spec! It may not look like it, but everyone has been doing a lot of stuff lately.

Izuru: Unexpectedly so. There are times when we are fooling around, but there are times when we're putting in serious effort.

Rikka: Yep. I think everyone could easily be an MC, a host, or basically anything. They're all geniuses.

──Seems like everyone here is pretty attentive toward other members.

Izuru: I think it's also because we trusted each other.

Miyabi: I think so too!

Arurandeisu: Right–, you get a feel like "I can practically say anything towards them without a worry" so it's rather nice, it means we can be quite relaxed toward each other too, and that we can pretty much do anything with them. I think being able to trust each other is also why we don't really predetermine everyone's "role" in the first place.

Rikka: If there's a catcher then one of us would be the pitcher, and by that pattern, there would be someone standing at the batter position already. This place (Holostars) feels pretty similar to this description I think.

Izuru: That's right. Each of us could also influence one another at the same time.

Miyabi: Everyone is always so hyper it's quite contagious in a way too. Arurandeisu: It makes you look forward to what kind of thing that would happen whenever we're meeting up, right?

–Growing up along with the fans–

──Regarding the topic of "Growth" that was mentioned briefly, during these 3 years, have any of you noticed significant changes or growth within yourself? Please let us know.

Izuru: Before joining Holostars I didn't think much about my lifestyle, it's not like I put in my all to graduate high school to enroll in a good university, but it's more because that's the kind of life I've projected upon myself at that time.

Nowadays I pretty much give it my all and think thoroughly about what I want to do, being involved in this kind of activity gave me more time to reflect upon myself more often than any other. From there I can see that I've already grown so much, at the same time I think there's still more room for me to grow further.

Arurandeisu: How earnest~!

Izuru: Leave it to me for this kind of interview!

Arurandeisu: Holostars' interview specialist right here! (lol).

Miyabi: I understand your enthusiasm, but try not to take every single question in okay (lol).

Izuru: I feel like I've managed to re-evaluate myself at the core and grow from there!

──On the contrary, what are some things that you feel are still lacking within yourself?

Izuru: Personally for me, it's the fact that I still couldn't control my emotions well, I think I'm still not mature enough on that front. I don't think it's good to always rely on our feelings when it comes to making important decisions. I'd like to gain more experience and improve myself in a way going forward.

Miyabi: I didn't have that much self-confidence at first, and being the very first to debut under Holostars has been quite rough due to the amount of criticism I've gotten. I took some of them quite personally and there are times when I wondered if I really deserved to be here.

But after 3 years– receiving my 3D and a live concert to boot, as well as collaborating with various people has made me gain a bit more confidence over the years. I've had fans saying "Holostars won't be the same without you, Miyabi-kun!", and that made me more confident in myself.

It makes me want to work even harder, and I think that alone is a nice thing. I think growing up, I've learned to not mind the negative comments as much.

Moving forward, I'd like to turn those negative feelings into positive ones as I grow as an idol.

Izuru: I've been watching over Miyabi-kun from the very first, and his growth is at least quite significant. I don't think there has been anything negative around you recently, right?

Miyabi: Or maybe I made it look that way (lol). I tried not to show my negative side as much these days, and instead focus more on bettering myself.

Arurandeisu: I guess you finally managed to control yourself better then.

Izuru: So you've managed to control your temper much better now.

Miyabi: Ahahaha (lol).

Arurandeisu: So even Miyabi-kun had grown up huh...

Izuru: Yeah, unlike you Aru-san.

Arurandeisu: Well I'm already flawless from the very first... So it'll be hard for me to grow even more beyond this.

Miyabi: ...Aru-san, you've changed.

Arurandeisu: Hey! This is supposed to be the part where you reply as the straight-man!!

All: (laughs)

──So have you felt a certain change within you as well, Arurandeisu-san?

Arurandeisu: Ever since I joined Holostars and became more serious about being an idol, most of my days are spent thinking about streaming and stuff I'm doing at Holostars. Things like how do I make my fans happier– I think there have been more chances for me to think about it... How's this?

Rikka: Are you asking this for real now!?

Miyabi: I think it's a good answer (lol).

Izuru: Rather than being negative-minded, I think he started paying less attention to most criticism lately.

Arurandeisu: I think it's because I've found my comfort zone now.

Izuru: That's probably because you feel burdened by doing basic content, once you started doing things that you like, naturally you would end up wanting to do your best on it. I think that itself is part of your mental support in a way.

Arurandeisu: Back then I was rather insecure no matter what I did... Like I'm not exactly sure what is the right thing to do at that time.

Izuru: And now feeling like you might've found the right answer for yourself, you started to be more comfortable in a way. It feels like you're being more expressive nowadays.

Arurandeisu: Yep yep. I'm just doing things that I like, and to be able to find an audience who enjoyed it as much has made me even happier.

──How about you, Rikka-san?

Rikka: I'm not sure if I have grown significantly, but after streaming for such a long time I think I've managed to learn more about making a good thumbnail as well as other important things. As for deciding on goods and merchandise, I tried researching more into what people would like to have, things like whether they'd like it if I made certain goods and such.

Miyabi: Feels like everyone has improved on that part too.

Rikka: Yeah. Not just singing, but I think everyone's ability to notice that small details is proof that they've indeed grown. Not only do we receive more support nowadays, but I think we have also managed to grow up together as fellow Holostars members

Now that I recall, in our previous Ichioshi Talk session I've met a fan who brought 3 of their friends to the event, and being able to receive a compliment from someone I just met made me really happy. I think it would be nice if we could experience something similar again from now on.

Izuru: It feels like we've fostered a really nice community.

Rikka: Yeah. And most of all, our fans are such warm people. Instead of gatekeeping, they welcome newcomers with a smile and even teach them a lot of things, in a way it's really easy to get into Holostars.

Miyabi: That's right. Everyone is so kind.

Rikka: I think it'll make it easier for people who have just known about us through this interview too.

Arurandeisu: Now then everyone, let's get along together!

Rikka: Scary–! All: (laughs)

witnessing death:

it's been a long time coming *cue taylor swift's opening song for the eras tour* (i still can't move on, it's so magical. and yes, i just converted to become a Swiftie since Midnights released lol)

a heck alot of things had happened for the past few months. I have reached that 1 year mark of my first job (which I constantly vowed to myself that I wanna be here only for 6 months top... but look where we are now *sigh*), I have went to job interviews and failed also, I had my fits again and again when I thought I have been better, I started driving, went to staycation with my best friends, consistently committed to therapy (yay me) and recently... the passing of my beloved one.

not sure whether I have grieved well or I haven't grief at all, or just that I have turn into *real adult* that I didn't cry as much as 4 years ago... but this is definitely a weird thing. I thought I would be sad. I was sad. when I first heard nenek pengsan, the anxiety button is triggered. I haven't seen her in a long time. How should I live if she passed? I'm not ready to say goodbye. she's the only living grandparent I have atm. I'm not married yet, she shouldn't go so fast. I cried and shivered at all of the possible thoughts.

when the whole chaos happened, from the moment I got a call from my cousin and my aunty crying asking my mom to come back home, all I can think of is dejavu. Like how my late Atuk passed. 6am received a call and I looked at how my mom cried - she never cries.

4 years ago was a very dark year. 2019. we got to know my father has stage 1 kidney cancer (i wasnt even sure whether it's malignant or not) and I took care of him for a whole 1 month of MC at home. that was in January. when he recovered, in April... his father (my late paternal grandfather) went into some heart procedure and passed away. we were informed through text message. I cried my balls out not because I was sad - but because I was thinking of how lonely my father is, both of his parents went away too soon.

then somewhere in june or july, my late grandaunt Umi passed. my mother nursed her for few weeks before at the hospital. 2 days before my birthday in October, my beloved cousin Nurul passed away after battling a long dreading sickness. I was devastated because I couldn't attend her funeral and send her away for the last time. Then in december, my late maternal grandfather passed away suddenly. it all happened in a blink of eye.

so when Nenek was lying on the hospital bed because of multiple organ failure due to severe septic shock, I was stunned. how come someone look so healthy a month ago became like this...state? she only looked healthy because of her energy, but she's also been sick for so long. for someone that had uncontrollable diabetes as nenek had, it is actually quite admirable that she can live long. allahuakbar. mostly I was surprised with myself because I didn't cry when others cried. I saw how my aunties and my mom comforted their dying mother. I saw how Nenek's chest waving and lungs cracking as she struggled to breathe. I saw how one by one people coming to her ears reciting prayers for her to be in peace. I saw how they're preparing themselves for the death. I was an observer, then and now.

I wanted her to wake up and see me, but also I wanted her to rest properly. it's sad really. nobody really saw this coming. it was a week before raya.......... and i really thought we could have raya this year. Nenek took her last breath on 3rd Syawal. I sent her away with much regret but also, relief that she's finally resting.

With all of these happening, im not sure how the adults are doing. Its not like I can ask, ma how you are doing? Damn, to be an Asian (or Malay). I believe that I couldnt be any sadder than the adults are. The adults are having it so much worse yet they could wear a pretend mask so maybe that's why I stopped myself from crying I guess? I just hope the adults can grieve as life goes on. I hate to see trauma dumping by gaslighting/guilt-tripping others just because they couldn't grieve well. But then again, what do I know on how to grief... when I myself couldn't get out of it yet...

anyways

Nenek, I'm sorry and I miss you. Very much.

Aww what if him and Wilton become friends? Maybe Hazel and Mimi ask them to babysit Mason?

They were a little worried to ask since they already have 4 kids but they said that just means they have more experience lol

Hell yeah! Kindlin is MORE than happy to have a full house

By this point, when Hazel was about 19 Bernie had passed away and cinder a year after. They cant help but wish Mason could have meet them. They watched over her as a kid, turned on Bernies father to defend her, and helped her feel so connected to a culture she once thought couldn't be hers. He deserved to feel like it was his culture too and she could only hope she could do right by them.

I imagine he and Mason trust each other a lot after a bit. The sad and scared besties. "I like your flowers. I've heard there are some sand elements that have cacti with flowers. That would be cool. Hey do you like balloons?"

Cirrus and Kindlin start finding unopened snacks and other food stuffed into odd places around the house. He knows he's not gonna go hungry there but he still does it to feel safe. Kindlin usually just puts what she finds back in his hiding spot and tries to keep snacks and extra food stocked in the kitchen for them to always have access to

He would be shy at first but after seeing he's not a threat he opens up He actually probably never heard of a hot air balloon and is eating up every word when Mason tells him what that is

Mason with literally everyone else-…….…. Mason with like 4 people-info dumping intensifies

I think Mason would grow to have an interest in glass making as well after seeing what ember can turn his sand into. For once he feels like this thing that's gotten him scorned by other people can be beautiful

He would have to be super careful not to turn his hands into glass with all that heat right?

what if when he's older he makes handmade custom vases for the flower shop

He gets curious and tries to do it after Ember leaves for a moment and just melts his hand. In any other universe that would be incredibly traumatic but here it's mildly upsetting

And Everytime someone buys one Mimi goes on about how her son made it and how proud she is

Ofc Mimi would pass the shop to him. Only if he wanted it

Assuming the flower shop and the bakery are close They can be besties for life 😭😭😭

He makes stuff for wilton too. Encasing his flowers in little glass balls to put up

But yeah I can imagine them relating a lot. "I don't have a papa, or I did but he didn't want me" "I think Id rather not have a d-dad then the one I got".

Wilton thinks they're the coolest thing he's ever seen "you mean you MADE this!?" He's so impressed and cherishes them He doesn't even let the triplets hold them really He's protective of his special things because he never really had any before

Yes 😭😭😭 He probably opens up to Mason more than anyone

Imagine the first time Wilton goes to ask Kindlin and Cirrus for something It's to ask if Mason is allowed to come over and play He hates asking for things but he couldn't wait to see his new friend again

Kindlin immediately picked up the phone and dialed Hazel

"Hey sorry are you guys free, Wilton really wants to see Mason today" "are you kidding!? We're over the moon to hear he's actually made a friend so quickly I'll be right over!"

Kindlin and Hazel smiling and waving at the boys but as soon as they turn away they're holding each other and crying because they're so happy the kids are getting along

She just leaves the receiver off the hook and you can hear the staff at the repair shop yelling at her in the background overcome by a loud motorcycle rev

"kin it's a miracle" "I know haze, we're so lucky"

"you uhhhh wanna leave them with cirrus and go get lunch hehe" "aren't you supposed to be at work right now" "meh"

What if His flowers started blooming after he met Mason He was still doing kind of poorly health wise, but having someone he could trust completely helped him in the healing process for sure He still didn't quite know who was safe, after all adults were still scary

Cirrus: "Thank goodness they are getting along right Kinny?… Kinny? (looks around to notice that they ran off) sigh, the woman is lucky she's so beautiful.

Kindlin brings her back the fanciest desert on the menu to say sorry for ditching her with 5 kids XD

Hazel isn't normally wanted to ditch work but for Mason it's nothing. And she knows how much kin deserves to treat herself and have a break dealing with 4 kids

Cirrus: I'll expect your apology, as long as I get some quality time with you once we get home. ; )

Kin: "OOP sorry haze gotta go- I forgot we have a uh, a big cake order. This was fun bye!" Runs home

Oh that reminds me of something I thought of earlier

Mimi has a small hand signal with hazel she can give whenever she needs help or feels overwhelmed. Sometimes just when she's too flustered with her pda lol

as soon as Hazel sees it she swoops in and bridal carries her off to calm down(maybe cuddle who can say)

#falls on her face 🛹#lost in a haze~ 💜#the world is a stage! 🌟#plant princess 🌷#you are the dream 👴#flower child 🍬#sandy boy ⌛

daddy issues; D.M

summary: you and draco bond over issues in 6th year

word count: 2.4k

warnings: err angst, comfort, illusions to sex

song: daddy issues (the remix) - the neighbourhood

a/n: i tried not to make it stereotypical bc i didn’t wanna make it seem all “i like older men lol”, probably my fav fic i’ve written, also arent these anime gifs so cute

masterlist | taglist

Take you like a drug

I taste you on my tongue

Tongues battling for dominance, bodies rubbing against each other searching for a feeling. It’s become routine now, a different person in your dorm swallowing a new pill, entangling limbs with someone just to feel something.

You ask me what I'm thinking about

I tell you that I'm thinking about

Whatever you're thinking about

Tell me something that I'll forget

And you might have to tell me again

It's crazy what you'll do for a friend

It was a constant cycle, putting yourself out there seeking the male attention you crave, seeking validation, constant reassurance and trusting too easily. That’s how you ended up with a different guy who always in the end leaves. You trusted too easily and people took advantage of how trusting and naive you are just for a quick shag.

You wished it wasn’t like this but that’s all you knew, wanting to be the best version of yourself for someone just to feel needed, no matter if the person was good or bad for you. You didn’t care, you wanted love from anyone you could get it from even if it just hurt you more.

You’re familiar with the absence, something stable made you feel a bit wary. It wasn’t something you were used to. Your father wasn’t the most present in your life, and even though he's there, he's never really there.

Go ahead and cry, little girl

Nobody does it like you do

I know how much it matters to you

I know that you got daddy issues

And if you were my little girl

I'd do whatever I could do

I'd run away and hide with you

I love that she's got daddy issues, and I do too

You always wondered where you went wrong, he preferred your siblings over you and doesn't pay you a piece of his mind. Constantly going out of your way to get his attention whether it was academically or acting a certain way just to get some sort of reaction. But he was too preoccupied with his other children, even if they were from your mom or his affairs.

That’s how you found yourself right now sitting in the astronomy tower past curfew watching the rain fall, trying to clear your head while humming softly to yourself to keep yourself distracted.

You hear distant chattering from below and quickly get up from where you were sitting and make your way to your dorm unnoticed by anyone.

Except one person, Draco Malfoy.

I tried to write your name in the rain

But the rain never came

So I made with the sun

The shade

Always comes at the worst time

He’s seen you before, you’re known around Hogwarts for how you put yourself out there and how ‘desperate’ you are for some affection. He almost feels bad for you, but he’s in no place to judge. With his dad in Azkaban Draco had so much more to worry about, like his task and how he can succeed. But there was something about you that intrigued him that he couldn't ignore.

He saw you again in transfiguration the next day and noticed a few hickeys littering your neck that you had tried to cover but it didn’t work. He wondered why you gave yourself up to so many people, but once again he was in no place to judge. He noticed the way your tongue would stick out when you focused extra hard, the way your hands would tighten around your quill when you got a question wrong and your face.

The same face that many boys including the older years would fawn over, the face that entranced and attracted many, the face of someone who would do anything for someone for some affection and the face of someone who seeked out all the wrong things.

You ask me what I'm thinking about

I tell you that I'm thinking about

Whatever you're thinking about

Tell me something that I'll forget

And you might have to tell me again

It's crazy what you'll do for a friend

You walk out of transfiguration on your way to the owlery to send a letter to your parents and feel eyes watching you everywhere. You like it, the attention, it’s something that you thrived in, but you couldn’t help but feel a new set of eyes on you.

Once you reached the owlery you realized you weren't the only one there, Draco Malfoy was also there sending a letter to who you assumed was his mother.

“y/n, right?” he asked, trying to spark a conversation.

“Yea, listen i’m sorry about what happened with your father i know you really looked up--”

“Dont worry about it, he wasn’t as good an influence as I made him out to be,” he sighed, looking away.

“My dad isn’t the best either if i’m being honest, i guess we’re in the same boat” you let out a light chuckle.

And that’s how you found yourself hanging out with draco malfoy bonding over your shared issues.

Go ahead and cry, little girl

Nobody does it like you do

I know how much it matters to you

I know that you got daddy issues

And if you were my little girl

I'd do whatever I could do

I'd run away and hide with you

I love that she's got daddy issues

It’s been weeks since you two started hanging out since the interaction in the owlery and have been getting closer ever since. You both sat down together in the astronomy tower, backed against the wall as the cool wind blew against your faces. The aura between you two was calm, a comfortable silence.

“So tell me about your dad, how is it with him in Azkaban?” you asked, tilting your head towards him.

“Mother’s not taking it well” he frowned. “I can’t even say potter’s wrong for getting him locked up because he deserves it. All my life he praised the dark lord and taught me to be selfish and always defend my blood, but he was never there for me when I needed him. I would have done everything just to hear ‘i’m proud of you’ but it never came. It’s worse now because mother’s all alone. I wish I could have stayed with her” he sighed looking out the tower watching the stars twinkle.

“I’ve noticed you’ve been much quieter this year as well, you stopped making fun of people. It’s not that nice on the receiving end huh?” you said with a teasing look on your face.

He shook his head at you scooting closer to you, it’s like the demeanor between you two have changed over the past few weeks. You found yourself pining over him rather than being in someone's bed. But this is how the cycle always goes, you get attached and they leave, you couldn’t help but hope this wasn’t the situation this time.

“Tell me about your father”

Daddy stuck around but he wasn't present

Cheated on your mom but she never left him

First I didn't get it, now I understand

He broke her heart, left money in her hand

So everything got paid for

She made sure you and your brother had way more

Than she ever had growing up

And when you told me the whole story I felt like throwing up

“ I don't know if i’d even call him my father at this point, he doesn't want me.” you sighed. “He's been cheating on my mum for years now and she still won't leave him because she thinks they can work it out. He’s had affairs with different pureblood women and has children with them. But what hurts the most is how he treats them as his own children and treats me as if I don't exist” you said, looking down as tears pooled your eyes.

Draco moved closer to you and brought his arm around your shoulders for a sense of comfort and waited for you to catch your breath so you can continue.

“I just want him to love me” you cried. “I go out my way to try and get his attention with my school work but it never works. That's why I get along with so many guys. I seek the validation, the comfort and the reassurance that I can get from him from others and I am so tired of it. I just want him to want me draco.” tears slipping out your eyes as you looked up at him, you’ve never confessed this to anyone before.

“Everyone always leaves, please don't leave me” you cried

“I’m not going anywhere” he turned his face towards you, leaning forward cautiously as if you were made of glass.

You leaned forward, wanting the exact same thing. Both very hesitant he gently pressed his soft lips against yours and they moved together in sequence, only taking a break to go back to his dorm and to breathe, limbs tangled together for the rest of the night until the sun rose.

I can see it on your face it was rough left a bad taste on your tongue

And she didn't even take any drug

She would rain all day

Couldn't wait for her son to shine

And you made it shine

There when she cried, you saved her life

It's been a week since that night in the astronomy tower and draco had already been avoiding you. It’s humiliating, but you should have known. You thought the ‘bond’ you had with him would last, it felt so genuine this time. So real.

You’d see him around the halls snogging pansy on your way back to the ravenclaw tower, lowering your head down so he wouldn’t be able to see you so you could get by quickly and unnoticed.

But he saw you.

He stared you right down in your teary eyes as he made out with pansy. You couldn’t help but feel a sense of betrayal, for someone who promised he wouldn’t leave you like everyone else, he did the exact same.

You did the only thing you knew of, you ran.

I keep on trying to let you go

I'm dying to let you know

How I'm getting on

I didn't cry when you left at first

But now that you're dead it hurts

This time I gotta know

Where did my daddy go?

I'm not entirely here

Half of me has disappeared

Draco followed you to the girls lavatory, hearing your shallow cries coming from one of the stalls. He approached the stall you were in trying not to make too much noise so he doesn't startle you.

He felt awful.

He promised he would never leave you, after you both poured your hearts out to each other but he still left. He had too, he was putting you in danger just by being with him. If Voldemort ever found out about you and hurt you he wouldn't be able to live with himself, that's why he took it upon himself to hurt you first.

“y/n are you in here?” he called out even though he knew the answer.

You recognized that familiar voice anywhere. “What do you want draco?” you said, trying to make it seem as if you weren’t just crying.

“I want to talk to you, please”

“No,” you said getting up and pushing yourself out of the stall. “You don't get to just throw me away after I told you everything and just come back into my life like nothing ever happened. Just go away, that's all you guys are good for” you spat.

“Just listen to me, it was to keep you safe. I didn;t want to but i couldn't bear seeing you hurt” he tried to explain.

“Safe?” you laughed. “ and what exactly do i need saving from, malfoy.”

“From me” he said as he pulled up his sleeve revealing his dark mark to you. Your body instantly tensed, you knew he was having problems and his family was involved with the dark lord but you never knew it was like this.

“Draco i-” you tried to say something but the words were stuck in your throat. He stood there looking at you desperately like he was waiting for you to tell him everything was okay, you wanted to be there for him but you didn’t know what to do. You trusted him with everything but he couldn't trust you with this? You thought the bond you had made would have made him trust you in the slightest, but clearly it's always you who’s more trusting.

“Why didn't you tell me?” you managed to say, your voice hoarse.

“I thought you’d leave me, you were the only good thing i had. Please don't leave me” he begged, salty tears escaping his eyes and running down his cheeks as he looked at you with desperation.

“So you thought pushing me away by snogging pansy was better?” you yelled, as he continued to look at you slightly taken aback by your lashing out.

“You know what, go ahead and cry little boy. You know that your daddy did too, you know what your mama went through. You gotta let it out soon, just let it out” you taunted walking closer to him looking straight into his teary eyes.

“This time I'll be the one that leaves.” and with that you were gone.

Go ahead and cry, little girl

Nobody does it like you do

I know how much it matters to you

I know that you got daddy issues

And if you were my little girl

I'd do whatever I could do

I'd run away and hide with you

I love that she's got daddy issues, and I do too

It’s been months since that night in the girls lavatory, and you missed him. You wanted to visit him in the hospital wing once you heard what happened with Harry Potter, but you couldn’t bring yourself to do so. He left you, and you were tired of always going back to people who just hurt you.

Now here you were at the battle of Hogwarts, standing with everyone while Voldemort and his death eaters stood across from you all.

“Draco, draco come here” you heard narcissa call from across the scene. He looked hesitant, as if he was waiting for someone to stop him but no one did. So he started walking over to his parents.

But you grabbed his hand.

“Stay please” you whispered looking up into his eyes.

He looked back at his parents and back at you like he was contemplating his answer.

“I’ll stay”

If you were my little girl

I'd do whatever I could do

I'd run away and hide with you

I love that she's got daddy issues, and I do too

Hi there! And congrats for your graduation! I am really happy for you and I hope lots of beautiful things await you in the future. I am that anon who wrote you about a month ago, by the way... I am very sorry, I really didn't want to make you wait, it's just been a bit of a rough period and I've been feeling a little down, but now I am better :) May I ask for some platonic Jumin/MC headcanons in which they are best friends? I love him, just not in a romantic way. Thank you so, so much again. <3

a/n: you are such a sweetheart :') anything for you <3 i just moved so that's why i've been seemingly MIA. thank you for the well wishes. i wish you all good things as well. p.s. - i'm back babes <3 i'm going on an all-family-required trip in a week or so but I plan to write during the long trip that i'm already mentally preparing for. may or may not be uploading from hotels lol. // kira-chan

Platonic!Jumin x MC Headcanons

alright so let me just begin by saying you two would be absolutely adorable

i can just imagine your dorky little snorts at jumin's sarcastic expressions

you know the thing when someone does something really stupid and he's just like " - _ - "

i firmly believe the friendship between you two would strive for both of you to be better people

like, i think your influence on jumin would make him realize he really needs to recognize his worker's needs and accommodate for them both professionally and morally.

jaehee says thank you <3

as well as yourself

jumin is definitely the friend who teaches you to savor the good moments

like this man is a GOD at stress management

when you find yourself starting to get worked up, he would be there in an instant

"MC, it'll be alright. Let yourself feel what you need to feel right now, but know those feelings cannot control you."

who says jumin isn't a cuddler.

like ok maybe he doesn't look like a stuffed, fluffy bear but lemme tell you

MOVIE NIGHTS TOGETHER..??? Y E S

but he'd also sorta ruin movie nights with his obsession with logical reasoning lmao

"there is absolutely no way that bus would roll off a small vehicle without crushing it."

"jumin it's Fast and Furious let it go."

*pauses the movie again to complain about the amount of 'oil' on The Rock's body*

don't hate me i'm trying to think of the worst movie that you could possibly choose to watch with him

i can't even fathom jumin's reactions to Guy Fieri PFFT WELCOME TO FLAVOR TOWN

you tease him for his bs attempts to sherlock movies

sitting together watching a movie with a blanket draped around both of you

and he's so tall that he'd be such a blanket-hogger too

jumin is the mom friend through and through

you've entrusted him with your like 9 spare keys because you keep losing them

and then losing your spare key

and then one time you lost your spare spare key

so yeah he keeps one on him at all times

that one time you got totally wasted, it was jumin who received your texts riddled with errors

and of course he was the one that insisted on driving you home that night, not trusting you'd make it to your front door even if you took a cab

and let's face it, you probably wouldn't have.

he also takes blurry yet still completely embarrassing photos of you

"what i thought that one of you looked good"

"DELETE IT NOW, JUMIN."

how is it that someone can be so smart and stupid at the same time?

i say he's the mom friend yet he is also a designated airhead when it comes to anything digital

so basically the ultimate mom friend because like have you ever a mom who actually knows how to work technology

the type to get mad if you don't know where you wanna go eat but it's because he doesn't like fast food lol

if you call him something sappy like "bestie" he will saying to the effect of "that's cringe" but secretly he's like "awe bestie"

will remember the little things istg

like your favorite movie is the unappreciated "Atlantis"?

he is extra as hell so bday prezzie would be a casual trip to disney

bc come on that's not even pocket change for him

but mostly he wants you to think he's the best friend you've ever had

i'm imagining you've been friends since high school (assuming he didn't grow up on private tutors)

back then, i imagine he was very anti-social

even V couldn't bring him out of his shell at school

it was your brightness that thawed his seemingly cool exterior

he'd listen to you as you rambled on and on about this book you'd been reading

or perhaps he'd chat himself about some of his random cat photos he'd gotten from V

sometimes you'd take pictures of cats while walking to school to show to him later

like it was the highlight of his week

you became friends mostly (besides the fact that jumin just likes your company) because he never forced him to do anything he didn't want to do

it was so important to him to make his own choices because he lost that ability so many times in his life.

jumin didn't have a say when his father and mother divorced

from seven years old til then, he never felt like he truly had a voice

so when you'd listen to him even if someone else interrupted him..it meant something to him

he wasn't shy, per-say, just reserved.. distant.

when jumin decides someone is his friend, it's very hard for him to ever let go -- he's fiercely loyal.

above all, he's grateful to you for staying by his side and continuing to care for him even now. <3

➳the girl in the lilac dress ♠ ♡

in which y/n meets fred's ex-girlfriend, days after fred confessed his love for her. there's still some confusion on the status of their relationship. angst -> fluff. narrated by you, y/n l/n.

fred weasley x fem!reader

word count: ±5.4k

tw: angst (not too bad though), mean words, blood, mentions of auror missions, kidnapping, needles, st mungo's

drop a follow if you wanna see more of this content!!

my masterlist:D

ft. hermione, lee and alicia

I don't wanna look at anything else now that I saw you

I don't wanna think of anything else now that I thought of you

the girl in the lilac dress

i was in a good mood. on the way to work to receive my mission, i was humming a song that had just come out. it was catchy and worth the wait.

out of the corner of my eye, a lilac colour appeared suddenly. strange, i thought. it approached me, in the form of a beautiful woman. she had the lightest grey eyes and the smoothest milky-white skin, and the shiniest locks of dark brown hair. she walked in a flowy lilac gown, her slim model-like body walking in a model-like fashion.

i was pretty sure she wasn't headed towards me, but when her luxurious voice said "good morning" in the calmest tone possible to me, i looked at her confusedly.

"hi!" i replied brightly, smiling.

she smiled sinisterly, "my name is pretoria aphrodite, i'm fred's ex-girlfriend."

he hadn't ever mentioned an ex, but i knew he had dated quite a few people. she made me seem like a glass of water next to a glass of red wine, naive and ugly. i was those two things anyway.

"oh! i'm y/n l/n! nice to meet you, you do seem like a daughter of aphrodite," i said politely.

"darling, all women are daughters of aphrodite. i understand fred's interested in you?"

she observed me and i laughed.

"i don't think that's quite the word. he's my best friend."

"friends with benefits?"

"oh gosh no! i don't really know where we stand, honestly."

"bitter about it?"

i thought for a second, "nah, i couldn't be. love's a hard thing."

"it is, indeed, and you work for the ministry?"

i nodded, "head of the auror office. what about you?"

"i model for witch weekly."

i gasped, "you're the p. aphrodite? i should've known!"

"big fan?" she looked amusedly at me.

"my friends are, so naturally i am."

"you don't seem the type fred usually goes for."

"i wouldn't say he's even going for me," i said cautiously.

"you are much too cutesie for his type."

i glanced up at her. she was smiling kindly.

"pfft, but better cutesie than nothing, amirite?" i asked friendlily, "well it's been nice to talk with you, but i gotta hurry!"

"no worries, i'll come with you, i have some business at the ministry too. have you seen his past exes?"

"uhh, not really?"

"well they're all models for one magazine or another."

"oh, okay. and that's important because...?" i asked her carefully.

"i just thought you should know."

i laughed, "i'm not model material, am i? i don't mind at all."

she looks taken aback. "i would say, with longer hair," she plucked a hair out of my poor mess of locks, "and a shorter upper body, with perhaps lip fillers, you'd look model-like."

her tone was analysing and not at all attacking.

"only three things??" i asked, shocked.

"you are rather... pretty already," she mused, "not model-like, but cute."

we had reached the ministry.

"thanks, see you later!" she waved and disappeared.

all that was left was a buzzing fly which soon flew away.

i immediately dialled in my auror code in the red telephone box and was sent into hermione granger's office.

"'mione! how good to see you!" i hugged her.

"hello y/n!"

in the ministry and the auror department, the head of the auror office was probably more important than the minister for magic. i didn't know why. she had brought me a cup of hot chocolate.

"thanks, 'mione, you didn't need to. what's the mission today?"

"two babies are being held hostage in a coded location by a person who calls themselves the light lord. dark lord, light lord, y'know?" she handed me a coded piece of parchment.

i thoughtfully pondered, "the light lord. who do you need?"

"i was hoping you go on this mission, then you could give me some news on this light lord person."

"that's doable. we'll need to bring in hepole and a ministry official to negotiate passports and such. and a strong auror team."

"right on it. i'll get wally becker and charlotte-ann becker. they're a force to be reckoned with on the borders."

"how much experience?"

"they're twins, been doing this for about fifty years now."

"perfect. and hepole?"

"on the way."

"thanks, minister," i winked at her, getting out my telephone and dialling the disguise unit.

"hello, poplinn speaking."

"pop, we need a few disguises. light lord."

"miss l/n! o-of course!"

"and pop?"

"y-yeah?"

"call me y/n."

i hung up, dialling harry's office.

"harry, call draco and be in my office in ten minutes. i don't care what business he's doing with scorpius, we've got babysitters here. light lord, perhaps a second of voldemort."

"of course."

i picked up the ringing phone that was in the corner of hermione's office.

"y/n, me and scorpy are having a zoo day, we're at the muggle zoo you suggested."

"sorry dray, but it's important."

"there's no one else?"

"there are others, but we need your expertise."

there was a pause, "i won't need to show my dark mark?"

"it's fading anyway. no."

"i'll be paid?"

"in hundreds."

"how old are the children?"

"2 and 4," hermione said.

the silence told me he was sold.

"i'll be there."

i picked up the big microphone and said, "auror unit 156 to the brief room. no need to bring anything. see you there!"

"good luck," hermione grimly said, "be safe, head."

"mhm and cup o' coffee tomorrow? if i survive, that is," i grinned.

"'course."

i smiled, "c'ya!"

she was shaking her head.

"oi, no disappointment, 'mione! i was the one who got the ministry out of paperwork!"

"burning paper doesn't count, y/n."

"it wasn't burning paper, hermione granger, it was arson."

"no, it was the saddest form of arson i've ever seen."

"hey! that's rude."

"just go on your mission already."

i laughed, "on it, minister. kalle?"

kalle looked at me, "yes?"

"tell miss minister to take a break and play a game or something, will you?"

she smiled, "okay."

"give my thanks to your mother too, loved the cookies!"

"alright, good luck, head!"

"thanks, bye!"

i apparated to the brief room, where everyone was strapped into special camouflage clothes.

i handed hepole the parchment and immediately began briefing the unit, harry and draco, on the mission.

"please be safe out there. if you're injured, apparate or travel back here, okay?"

i looked at hepole.

he cleared his throat, "they're in albania. the forest there."

"okay. harry and draco will provide attacking forces," the two nodded.

"i want lopex, quentin blake, quentin grill and hilly to break into any establishment," i say to the team, "and eron, hawks, melv, argonas to hold the offender hostage. johnathan, team healer as always. i'll take the children. hepole, you come and accompany us till the forest, then you have my permission to stay back, and beckers, stay invisible with the cloak, write a report for the minister when you come back, understand? have faith, team! i believe in you. we travel by apparition with the machine in three minutes. call your family, chat, have a snack, drink some water, and relax."

i picked up my telephone and dialled my parents.

"hi mum, dad, i'm going on a mission!"

"alright, be safe sweetie," my mum called.

"yeah, don't die kiddo," my dad added.

"right right, i love you, bye!"

the mission was successful. we rescued the children and sent the kidnapper to trial for azkaban. i escaped with a gash on my forearm, but quickly fixed it up with a spell. it ended late in the evening, so the team healer had gone home. the wound kept opening again, but i wasn't sure if it needed stitches.

putting everything away and making sure the aurors were okay, i headed back to the apartment i shared with fred.

i felt emotionally and physically drained, ready to enjoy a good shower and a good late dinner.

when i fiddled with the key to the door and opened it, my heart absolutely stopped.

pretoria aphrodite was kissing fred passionately. i felt my heart fall ten thousand flights of stairs in disappointment. of course. i was all a rebound who was pathetically in love with him.

when they stopped and saw me, pretoria smirked and fred stood up, astounded.

"uhh, continue? sorry," i apologised awkwardly.

"wait, y/n, it's not what it looks like-" he said.

"i don't mind, be safe," i smiled, too tired and too weak to do anything, closing the door and feeling tears well up in my eyes as i took my bag and myself somewhere. anywhere away from this all. my wound burned. i cursed under my breath as i made my way to st mungo's.

"y/n, you should have come here earlier!" yvonne, my friend, says, as she slowly injects a needle into me, "it's infected! and it needs stitches."

i laughed, "everything needs stitches. this is why i didn't become a healer, yvonne."

she shook her head in dismay.

"lol."

i watched the needle go in.

then she stitched the bloody mess of a wound up, cleaning it gently.

"now i can't stay, y/n," i pouted, "no, don't give me that face, i have other patients."

i nodded, "thanks yvonne."

"no problems. take care. you're too reckless."

"am not!"

she laughed. "that's funny."

after the trip to st mungo's which was pretty short, i wondered what to do. my mind kept floating to the scene i had just witnessed.

i was just the stupid, stupid, girl he used as a rebound. he didn't even use me as a real rebound, just someone who was simply infatuated with him to help him forget his unforgettable ex.

looking at a shop window, i caught a glimpse of myself. i hated being insecure but it happened.

i looked ugly. eyes too small, nose too big, lips not full enough. my thighs touched and i didn't have abs. i had a long gash running down my forearm, surrounded by other cuts. my hair was messy and disgusting. compared to the angel on earth pretoria was, i was nothing. small and plain was nothing when luxurious and beautiful was present.

and it hurt. my heart hurt. my head hurt.

i shook my head gently of my thoughts, chuckling bitterly.

fred weasley was completely and utterly out of my league.

whatevs, i thought. hurting was fine.

deciding to get over him once and for all, i bought some groceries and apparated to the doorstep of lee and alicia's glamorous cottage.

i knocked twice on the door. "hellooo!" i called out.

"baby, can you get that?" lee asked alicia.

alicia opened the door, smiling as she saw me.

"hey ali!"

"hi! come in!"

at first glance i could tell she knew something wrong.

"can i sleep here tonight? and take a shower? and eat some of your food please guys? and maybe steal a shirt i left here for safekeep? and maybe use your telephone? i'm really sorry for troubling you, so i got you guys snacks."

i was the second cousin by marriage of lee. it was good overall, but he was super naughty.

"snacks?"

"your favourites."

"then i guess you can," he said cheekily and i laughed.

"alicia, i don't know how or why you ended up with this child, but i'm glad you did," i told her and she laughed heartily.

"he's cute, isn't he?"

"no," i quickly stepped into the guest bedroom and took a long shower, letting a few tears slip but not enough so that it looked like it. i was subtle.

i bundled up in heavy clothing and wrapped my hair in a towel.

gingerly, i bandaged the wound.

by the snores in the other room, lee was asleep. i crept out quietly, going to cook something.

alicia was sitting down, with my favourite comfort meal prepared. i felt tears of appreciation well up in my eyes.

"thank you, ali, i love you."

"you damn well do."

we both giggled.

"what happened?" she asked me.

"nothing. i just wanted a change."

"from fred? liar. i'll ask again. what happened, y/n?"

"just a long mission, that's all."

"after long missions you usually watch movies with fred."

"couldn't i visit my best friend and my cuz?"

"you visit us on weekends. it's a friday."

"well i wanted to visit you!"

"bullshit."

"is it that hard to believe?"

"what the fuck did fred do to you?"

"nothin'?"

"c'mon y/n, you have to tell me. there's a reason why you didn't go to angie and george's tonight."

"i went here because they're super kissy. you guys have space and act normally. i appreciate that."

"you're awesome at lying."

"i'm not lying!"

"does this happen to involve pretoria aphrodite?"

i nodded, sighing, "she's so nice and pretty." i played with my food.

"i bumped into her. she's pretty, but not nice."

"oh?"

"she called me fiercely ugly. she forgot i model for witch weekly too."

"what did you say back?"

"i told her to fuck off."

i laughed, "she was very nice to me. but next time i see her imma kill her."

"of course she was nice to you, you're a lil angel! anyway, she's an animagus, didya know?"

"whoa how did you know?"

"caught her in a jar. she's a fly. who do you think told hermione to catch rita skeeter in the jar?"

i laughed, "rita skeeter is a beetle! gosh, she's annoying."

"what did fred and pretoria do?"

"nothing."

"please tell me?"

"they-" i swallowed, "they were kissing, and so i came here because i didn't wanna watch anymore."

"hang on, he told you he loved you a few days ago?"

i nodded.

"that doesn't seem right."

i shrugged, "pretoria's better than me. i don't blame him."

"his mother would kill him!"

i shrugged again, "i don't think he was legit when he said that."

"molly weasley, y/n!"

"look, he can explain it to you, i don't even wanna hear it. the first stage of mourning is denial, they say."

"doesn't mean it's good."

"denial is awesome. it's ignorance, but you choose to be stupid. i'm already so stupid!" i groaned, covering my face with my hands, "so so so so so so so stupid, foolish, dumb, and i don't want you to tell me i'm not because i know i am. pathetic."

i gobbled down the rest of the meal, "ths 's delicous," i said, swallowing, "g'night!"

"don't be afraid to let it all out."

"yeah."

i shut the door softly, before brushing my teeth and collapsing exhaustedly on the bed, nodding off quickly.

the next day, i woke at 4am, and put on new clothes, apparating to the phone box and filling out paperwork for the missions yesterday.

i joined hermione quickly, handing her a cappucino and sipping my mocha.

"court sitting this early?" she asked me.

i nodded, "mistake of sirius black, now they do all court sittings within 24 hours of arrest."

"that's smart."

"yeah. it's good. he's obviously guilty right? just a dust of veritaserum to bring it all out?"

"i reckon he'll just confess."

"criminals don't go down easily."

"you guys did a spotting job. the children were unharmed."

"are they here today?"

"they're in st mungo's. being monitored."

"parents?"

"dead."

"oh gosh, those poor children. what's going to happen to them?"

"someone's adopting them, wally becker and his wife."

"that's awesome."

the court hushed as we entered the room. hermione and i shared amused glances and began the sitting.

he was found to be guilty and was chucked in azkaban.

"what an idiot, sending a message like that."

"yup," i chuckled, "what with hepole in our ministry, they never escape."

we laughed.

"how's everything with ron?" i asked her.

"i don't know if he's still into me?"

i almost laugh at her statement, "bro. of course he is."

"i never see him."

"then see him more!"

"how? i'm so busy!"

"busy enough for ron?" we both took sandwiches from the canteen lady with courteous smiles and words.

we sat down at the cafeteria.

"i guess not, but he's busy!"

"busy enough for you?"

"i guess not."

"'xactly."

"but he might not wanna go on a date."

"why? the boy's obsessed with you, 'mione!"

the aurors and ministry workers looked at us in fear as i rose up. i chuckled.

i immediately skipped over to the telephone, putting in the WWW's number.

"y/n! what on earth are you doing?" hermione said in a panicked tone.

"nothing to be worried 'bout."

"hello?" it was george. i thanked the heavens for that.

"yolo george, give the phone to your lil bro please."

"'kay."

hermione was gaping at me. i smirked at her.

"y/n?"

"hey ron, i want you to meet me in rosemary park at 5pm today."

"o-okay."

"could you also bring hermione's favourite snacks and wear an extra jumper?"

"what? why?"

"i'm curious, that's all," i said, "see you there!"

"is that y/n?" i heard fred's voice.

"nup, it isn't," i replied.

and with that, i hung up.

"hey 'mione?"

she was glaring at me, "what."

"meet me at rosemary park at 5pm?" i batted my eyelashes at her, before bursting out in laughter.

she laughed, "i love you."

"pfft, love ya too. you really are too careful. like he would reject you."

"what do you think i should wear?"

"let's go off work early today, at 3," i suggested, "we're both on top of our work anyway."

"okay! you wanna go now?"

"it's 11?"

"yeah!"

"alrighty! kalle!"

kalle turned to us, "yes?"

"hi! me and minister are going out to talk about the mission."

"alright, bye."

we apparate to hogsmeade.

"what theme do you wanna go for?"

"hmm," she thought for a second, "floral!"

"alrighty!" i fumbled for my cell phone and dialled the WWW's again.

"hello?" it was fred this time.

"heyo freddie," i said to him like nothing had ever happened, "tell ron to dress up at 5 pm in something cute but not too out there, preferably in florals or somethin', and he better bring me hermione's favourite flowers."

"wha? if he's going with you then- ohhhh."

"thanks, bye."

"wait!"

"mhm?"

"can we talk?"

"erm- about what exactly?"

"everything."

i sighed, "later, okay? i'm out with hermione and you've got work."

"okay. have a good time, lovely."

"you too."

i was utterly confused. here he was one day kissing pretoria, and now he was calling me lovely?

what the hell was going on?

"let's go, mione!"

we went and bought her a pretty pink dress with white lilies adorning it. it was cute and definitely casual, sort of like a sundress.

"what if he doesn't come?" hermione chewed on her lip.

"hermione jean granger, we both know that ron is absolutely definitely a thousand times head over heels in love with you. he wouldn't ditch you for the world! and look at you! anyone can see he's lucky to have you! you both are star-crossed. when has he ever ever ditched you?"

"with lav brown."

"lavender, she's, she's dead, hermione," i said carefully, "fenrir greyback bit her to death. it was a tragic, heroic, death. she was listed in the extended casualties sent to my office a few months after the battle. i think she's watching down on us from wherever she is up there."

"she's dead?"

"yeah," i replied sadly, "life is so short."

"yeah."

"what i'm tryna say, is that that might've happened, but it won't happen again now that he knows you love him and he loves you. understand?"

"yeah."

"and love him well, for the sake of lavender brown."

"for the sake of lavender brown," she said, smiling.

"yup, now, light lord. his name is actually pont knight."

"pont knight?"

"former assistant of me."

"pont knight?"

"yeah, i know right."

"how did he go again?"

"oh, i fired him," i laughed.

"why?"

"smart guy but terribly lazy and he kept asking for promotions! like please do something if you want money."

"interesting."

"he moved to eastern europe to chase after the trendiness of the islands. i think it was just an excuse. he's changed. he used to be clean-shaven and have the blondest hair."

"do you think he did anything else?"

"we did put him on veritaserum, right?"

"yeah, but it's illegal to put someone on it for more than 10 minutes now in court sittings."

"we could go visit him in azkaban later? i'll take gregir."

"yeah, maybe tomorrow or the day after?"

i nodded, "'course. today is a rest day for the aurors right?"

she nodded, "yeah, half of the agency is at home or working out in the gym."

"good. sometimes this work is so tolling, 'mione."

"yeah, i heard from st mungo's you got hurt?" her eyes were concerned.

i rolled up my sleeve, "that's it."

"that's it? what do you mean, that's terrible! you need to take better care of yourself."

"well sometimes it's hard to. it was worth it."

we continued chatting until it was 4:30.

"oop!" she checked her watch, "i have to go!"

"good luck! tell me how it goes, minister! i'll head back to check if anyone's called for you or me and dust it all up."

"thanks. i owe you."

"nah. i owe my job to you. if minister for magic didn't exist, i wouldn't either. i love you 'mione, be safe!"

"love you too!"

i apparated to the phone box and typed my letters in.

with a whoosh, i immediately spotted two letters and a beeping phone. i answered the phone, solving the problem of the woman on the other end of the line and scribbled a reply to both of the letters.

i finished the paperwork and sent it off, then visited my office. it was piling with letters. i answered all of them, redirecting some of them to different departments, before calling everyone back.

i spotted some of the aurors from yesterday's mission sitting in the cafeteria and talking.

i sat down next to them, "how are you guys doing? any injuries?"

they shook their heads, "we've been spending time in the healer's office and just exercising lightly by the orders of johnny," argonas explained and i nodded.

"take it lightly, and go home if you want to. seeing family always helps the process, hopefully not too many nightmares?"

they laughed, "nightmares all the time, miss," hawk said lightly, "get used to it in this job."

i frowned, "have you tried speaking to doctor yvonne? she might have ways to solve nightmares."

"ahh, miss, sleeping draughts can only do so much," hawk replied cordially.

i laughed, "alright, hawkeye, but just make sure you're not getting traumatised okay? what about you, lopex, quentins?"

they shrugged.

"it's okay? the door was very hard to bust into," lopex said quietly, "we had to try several bombarding charms."

"now, lop, it was easy work!" draco said, sitting down, "hello, head auror, hello unit."

it brought on a cacophony of greetings.

"how are you doing, dray?" harry sat down next to him, "hi everyone!"

we all replied with more greetings and a steady conversation started and flowed for a couple of hours.

i felt my cell phone go off and i excused myself, noting it was 9pm already.

i apparated to the apartment doorstep, knocking on the door just in case anything was happening. i checked the caller id, it was hermione.

fred opened the door, hair messy, still good looking. i smiled at him, patting his shoulder as i ran to the ringing telephone and picked it up.

"y/n!" i could just hear the beam in hermione's voice.

"'mione! how did it go?"

"absolutely wonderful, head auror, ahhh, he's so cute!"

"what happened?" i asked, smiling already.

"well it was really cold when i saw the picnic blanket, which was matching my dress for some weird reason, and ron was there in the cutest button up and he looked so handsoME and he gave me a flower, he's always handsome but i just can't! ahhhh!" she squealed and i clapped my hands in excitement.

"and then i was shivering and he gave me hiS JUMPER and it smelled like him and oh my gosh i think i might just be in love, y/n!"

i giggled, "my cooling charm did work!"

"whaT y/n????"

cackling, i said, "continue, i wanna hear more this is so adorable!!!"

i ignored the dirty glance fred gave me, quietening my voice.

"and then we had food and he said he had cooked it himself and was being such a dear and i told him that i loved him over and over again!!!"

i squealed silently again.

"and, and, gosh my english has gone out of the window!"

"english is nothing compared to the language of love!!" i giggled.

"we watched the sunset whilst cuddling, and i fell asleep and then when i woke up i was in his bed and he was looking at me intently and i just, i'm the luckiest girl alive!"

"you are but you deserve it! that's so sweet! i'm happy for you goshhh, you are the cutest couple. you're both such darlings!"

"and then we watched a muggle movie and he got scared of the spiders and it was so adorable ahhhhHHHH!!!"

"that's the cutesttttt," i gushed.

another dirty look from fred. i gave him a frown back.

"and then he walked me home and it started raining and we kissed in the rain and another check off of my bucketlist and oh my gosh he's so perfect."

"oh gosh that's beautiful," i was smiling uncontrollably.

"anyway," her tone changed into one of mischief, "wanna meet up tomorrow to talk about it?"

"sure thing! when and where? i'll be there!"

"erm, lemme chec- think," i heard the suspicious rustling of papers.

"you're sus. let's just talk about it over the phone. i don't want anything weird."

"how about 10 am in the morning at the field of fireflies?"

"that's a highly romantic place, miss minister. isn't it for couples or something?"

"no? you must be talking about fiona farm."

oh. "yeah, probs, well okay, it better have good coffee. i'm dying of boredom too, does it have a playground??" i asked, hopefully crossing my fingers.

"nope."

"awww, shucks, i don't think i'll go then. you wanna come over though?"

"no please come! there's a surprise!"

i was sold, "lovely. i'll be there at 9:30!"

"no, no, don't do that."

"what the hell, hermione, you're being so suspicious!"

"i'm not, okay? just come on time, you won't regret it."

"if there's any funny business i'm not committing arson ever again."

"oh crap."

i sighed.

"just come anyway!!! good night cheerio!!!"

"what the-"

the line ended.

i frowned, noticing the glare fred gave me yet again.

"is everything okay??" i asked him.

"no," he said rudely.

"well, do you need any help?"

"no."

"how was your day?"

"fine."

i sighed, "okay."

"you called ron cute."

i laughed lightly, "that's it?? and so what's kissing a girl huh, nothing? i called him cute because he treats 'mione like a goddess, because she is a goddess, for goodness sake. and he is cute, in a completely objective way," i added absentmindedly, "all you weasleys are."

he frowned.

"she kissed me!"

"oh i don't mind, i couldn't. my two braincells can't handle it. you kiss whoever you wanna, okay? live, laugh, love, and all that." i smiled.

he was silent.

"and we can talk after i meet up with hermione, okay?"

"okay."

"we don't needa if you don't wanna, of course. g'night."

"have a nice sleep."

the next morning, i got up and went to the field of fireflies or whatever.

it was a beautiful place. it was a full on field. meadows stretched across the near english countryside. the sky was clear and light, and the world around me was stunning.

winds blew from all directions, and i soon found myself accio!ing a jumper.

"hermioneeee???" i called, "you're leaving me hanging."

had hermione stood me up? i chuckled at the very thought, soon rolling in the field of flowers as i laughed.

"hermione you devil you stood me up! you left your poor little work wife hanging!" i shouted dramatically.

i suddenly spotted a little house? by the side of the meadow.

i ran towards it.

"whoa."

it was absolutely magnificent. beige little bricks were stacked on top of each other, grey bricks dotted in. the shillings were dark green, and plants hung out everywhere in the cracks of the house.

large windows which reflected the blue light in the sky spanned across the whole house, and a single wooden door stood ajar.

i just wish i had brought a camera. i sat on the grass, playing with the hem of my jumper sadly. even hermione didn't have time for me. i wondered what a sad person i must seem like.

"contemplating life there?" i heard a far off voice. i swung my head around, seeing fred standing and grinning.

yeah well duh i was, no thanks to you, i thought.

i immediately got up.

"we can talk here, right?" fred asked, as he brought me into the house.

"wow," inside, it was cluttered and messy, with plants sprouting everywhere and bookcases and things everywhere. i loved it.

"you like it?" he asked.

"love it."

"good, because i bought it," he laughed at my flabbergasted expression, "i'm rich, darlin'. let's sit, i cooked lunch."

"was this your plan? to have hermione stand me up?" i asked.

"love, i wouldn't call this a plan. simply just a boy trying to explain himself."

"look i don't need an explanation. i told you, you can love whoever you wanna, i don't mind, i don't care, i support."

"but i'm gonna have to explain because i wanna kiss you."

"then go ahead," i sighed, "if you're lying i will stab you."

"jeesh okay."

i looked at him.

"oh yeah, i forgot the food, here," he said casually, handing me a plate filled with yummy looking delicacies. i was willing to put up with his rubbish story telling for the food, i guess.

"alright, i'm all ears."

"okay. so she talked with you right?"

i nodded.

"did she take a piece of hair from you?”

i nodded again.

"so you came home just right about when the night lights flicker on in london. or so i thought it was you. it was actually, aphrodite, yeah? in polyjuice potion. and she knocked on the door, which i thought was strange. i opened it and she immediately kissed me, as you. and it was weird but it was you and i would give the world to kiss you like that," he said bluntly and i could feel my face heating up, "and then it went like that for a few seconds and she turned into pretoria, and by then the woman had her claws on me. then the door opened and i knew i had made a mistake and then you left and apologised so sweetly. i'm so so sorry, my love, please, i never meant to hurt you, i never meant to do anything. i broke up with her last year. i haven't wanted to be with her since. i want to be with you."

i looked at him. i knew he was genuine.

"okay. i'm sorry too, for not trusting you. i guess i was just really unsure of our relationship. it's still kinda blurry."

"what do you wanna be?"

"could we be official, please?"

he grinned, "of course."

then smiling sheepishly, he added, "can i kiss you now?"

"only if i'm the only girl you kiss from now on," i teased, smiling.

he blushed, placing my hands over his heart. it was beating very very fast.

"feel that, beautiful?"

i nodded.

"only you."

he gave me a cheesy grin and laughed at my blushing face, before tilting my head upwards and going in for a kiss but kissing my cheek.

"that's not fair!"

and that's how his head ended up falling into my lap, as i ran my fingers through his ginger strands.

he had fallen asleep just as the sunset began.

it was breathtaking. hues of orange and red danced across the sky.

"i can think of something a lot more beautiful than that," fred said, smiling.

"oh?"

"yeah. yeah."

"i don't believe you."

"that's because you can't see yourself right now."

Chifuyu x GN!Reader x Kazutora

Final: Open (For now lol)

Part I

Warning: Cursing and gender neutral reader.

Scenario: A love triangle between Chifuyu, you, and Kazutora. Who will you pick?

Genre: Fluff and comedy.

Word Count: 2,220

------

"Look! There's a carnival in town for the next couple weeks. I haven't been to one in so long." You point out a poster hanging on the window of a convenience store. Chifuyu was walking you home from school, grateful that he had some free time today. He took every opportunity to spend as much time with you as possible.

"Whoa, looks fun! We should totally go t-together." He stutters and mentally kicks himself for being so nervous. He’s been trying to ask you on a date, but he wasn’t satisfied with any of his ideas.

"Yeah! That sounds great. Maybe the others would like to go, too!" You didn't get his hint.

"A-ah, yeah..I'll let them know, but we could meet up first if anything!" Chifuyu was trying his best to not share you with the rest of the Toman crew. He liked you first!

"Okay! When and what time did you wanna meet up?"

"Friday around 7pm?"

"Perfect! I'll see you then." The sweet smile you gave him made his heart thump just a bit harder.

-------

'So weird. He's really late.' You thought to yourself as you checked the time on your phone. It's been over half an hour since you messaged Chifuyu of your arrival. You decided to give him a call, but still received no answer.

'I hope he's okay.' Chifuyu was always responsive, even when he was busy. You figured there might have been a Toman emergency and hoped it was nothing too serious. A low sigh escapes your lips as you prepare to leave the front entrance where you waited for Chifuyu.

You then spot a familiar friend passing by and you immediately catch his attention, waving your arm to make yourself noticeable.

"Kazutora-kun!" You approach the black haired boy with yellow streaks.

"___(y/n)-chan?" He stops walking and turns to face you.

"Are you here for the fair, too?"

"Not really. I just happened to be passing by. How about you?"

"Well, I was supposed to meet Chifuyu-kun here, but he's not answering his phone so I was just gonna go home."

"He ditched you?" Even Kazutora was surprised by Chifuyu's action.

"Don't say it like that." You pouted, lightly hitting his shoulder. "I figured that something came up. I'm sure he has his reasons and he can tell me whenever he's ready."

Damn. You were such a nice person. You always tried to see the good in people, even in scumbags like him. That's why Kazutora fell hard for you. You were the reason why he wasn't in jail again.

You weren't an official Toman member, but you were close with everyone. You were loyal to all of them, of course, but he really appreciated you smacking some sense into him during the Valhalla fight. He knew that some of the others were taking their time to forgive him, but you remained the same.

"You don't need him to go to the carnival."

"I know, but to me, it's more fun when other people are around."

"I see." He wasn't going to let this opportunity go to waste. Kazutora knew that he wasn’t the only one who wanted to be your boyfriend. ”I'll go with you if you'd like."

"Wait, really?" The way your eyes lit up with excitement woke the butterflies inside him.

"Ye-yeah. I'm not doing anything." He shrugs, looking away so you wouldn't see the light pink fading into his cheeks.

"Yay! Thank you! I'm so excited! I'll go get us tickets." You rushed towards the ticket booth with Kazutora following you.

-------

"I've always wanted to try this!" You exclaimed, heading inside the House of Mirrors. "Whoa."

The inside is dark and the only source of light is a thin strip of red LEDs lining the floor. It also didn't help that it would flash intermittently. You check on Kazutora who suddenly hits his head against one of the mirrors.

"Shit..!" He curses softly as you move in front of him.

"Are you okay?" You ask, watching him place a palm on his forehead. "Let me see."

You remove his hand and hair to assess the site closely, making Kazutora blush at the short distance between your faces. You gently caress the spot where he was holding, glad that you didn't feel any bump or see any open wound.

"How is it?" He instantly misses your touch when you step back from him.

"There's nothing there. Don't worry, you're still pretty." The playful wink you gave him deepens his blush more. He follows you through the mirror maze, using his hands to help guide him and prevent his face from smashing against the glass. Unfortunately, it happens a few more times.

Kazutora is no longer close to you as you see his reflection everywhere, confusing you of his location. You were also using your hands, but still managed to either fall or collide into the reflective walls. You hear Kazutora say your name, the boy also trying to reconnect with you.

"Wait, don't move, I'll go to you." It took you a few minutes and bumps to the forehead, but you finally grab the real him. "Whew, I thought I was gonna lose you."

"No way, but just to be sure," Kazutora reaches for your hand, encasing it with his. "Don't let go, okay?"

"Mm!" You nod and hold on tight, both of you helping one another to find the exit. The path to the end was complicated and full of forehead bumps, but he wished it lasted longer just so he could continue to hold your hand.

------

He was waiting for you while you went to the restroom, his hand missing the way yours seemed to fit nicely in his. It felt so warm and comforting. Suddenly, a harsh bump to his shoulder breaks Kazutora from his thoughts.

"The fuck?" A boy, who looked a couple years older than him, sneers down at your friend. "Watch it."

"Hah? You were the one who bumped into me." He glares at the tall male who was laughing obnoxiously with his friends.

"This kid thinks he can talk back to me? Hilarious." Kazutora's icy stare remains intact.

"C'mon dude, let's not waste time with this punk. We gotta pick up some hot babes." Another person in the group adds.

"Yeah, we don't wanna be seen around this loser. He's gonna them drive away." They join in another round of laughter as Kazutora's fists tighten. Before he drove his clenched hand into the group's leader, he felt someone take a hold of his arm. He looks down and finds you pouting up at him with big, wide __(e/c) eyes.

The gang around him jump slightly at your appearance, not seeing you slip into their view. They blush with one glance at you, mouths slightly agape and wondering what your connection with Kazutora was.

"Ne, Kazutora-kun, you promised me we'd go to the ferris wheel. Are we still going?" You hugged his arm closer to you, giving him a cute smile. You glance at the small group of boys around Kazutora, tilting your head a bit.

"Are these your friends?"

"Nope. I'm not friends with these losers."

"Okay! C'mon then, let's go!" You dragged him away from the group and once far enough, you slowed down your pace.

"Eheh, sorry if that was too forward. It looked like they were bothering you. I know you could kick their asses, but I'd rather you not waste your time with them." You also didn't want him to get in trouble after having a clean record for quite some time. Right when you were about to release your hold on him, he gently secured your arm over his again, pulling you lightly towards a different direction.

"Where are we going?"

"You said you wanted to go to the ferris wheel, right?"

"We-well, we don't have to. I was only saying that to make the guys go away. If you want to do something else, we can do that."

"You don't want to go with me?" His bell earring jingles faintly as he angles his head, golden eyes blinking at you curiously.

"Of course I do! I just wasn't sure if-"

"Great!" He smiles, moving towards the rotating ride. He assists you inside the capsule, both of you taking a seat opposite of each other. Kazutora didn't want his close presence to make you uncomfortable. You two were only friends after all.

You feel the ride start and you look over your window to watch the scenery change from a different perspective. You watch as the people below become smaller, but the aerial view widens your image of the city.

"So pretty!" You admire the mixtures of the city lights, bringing life to the bustling town.

"Yeah, I agree." Kazutora's stare stays on you, his eyes never once wandering to the outside.

-------

'Shit! Shit! Shit!' He knew he messed up and probably felt like he didn't deserve to see you, but he couldn't leave it like this. Chifuyu needed to explain himself. He didn't want you thinking he abandoned you on purpose.

Never! He's been dying for a chance to have some alone time with you.

So he ran. Ran straight to your house once he was finally available. Chifuyu knocked frantically on your door, ignoring the odd stare from a neighbor who seemed to have made a quick run to the convenience store.

Chifuyu probably should've used the doorbell especially since he didn't bother checking the time. His phone was out of commission so he wasn't aware of how late or not late it was. He decided if you didn't answer in a few minutes, he would just have to be patient and wait till tomorrow to explain himself.

When your door finally opened, his heart started racing again. A million thoughts were going through his mind, but he knew what to say first. However, when a familiar yet unexpected face answers the door, his heart pounds heavily in his chest.

"Kazutora?"

The yellow and black haired boy blinks at the vice captain, asking him for the purpose of his visit.

"Is __(y/n) there?"

"Maybe." Kazutora keeps him waiting outside and Chifuyu glares at the ex Toman member.

"Kazu-kun, who is it?" You come up behind him and gasp when you see your blonde friend.

"__(y/n)-chan! I'm so sorry! Please forgive me!" Chifuyu immediately bows lowly to you, hands pressed to his side. He's too embarrassed to look you in the eyes.

"You're hurt! C'mon, get inside." You carefully take his hand, bringing him to the living room while you grab a few medical supplies.

You quickly began disinfecting the open wounds and scrapes, trying to be as gentle as you could be. Chifuyu explains how a rival gang attacked Toman right when he was leaving to meet with you. Unfortunately, it took longer than anticipated, but he reassures you that everyone is alive and safe. A little bruised here and there, but at least no one was hospitalized.

"So, that's why I didn't show up. I'm sorry."

"Don't be silly. No need to apologize. You had an emergency, I totally understand. Besides, it's not like I'm your significant other and it was a date or something. Well, even then, I wouldn't be mad."

Oof.

Even Kazutora felt that one. Chifuyu also mentally cries at your obliviousness and innocent comment.

"I'm still sorry I wasn't able to take you to the carnival. I know how excited you were."

"Eheh, actually, Kazutora took me! While I was waiting, he was passing by and we decided to check it out. Sorry!" You gave him an apologetic smile.

Double oof.

"It's okay! Don't be sorry. I'm glad you were able to go." Chifuyu strains to smile as you talk about the fair while looking through the first aid kit for a band-aid. The blonde slightly glares at Kazutora who is sitting on the couch and quietly sipping on his tea.

Chifuyu wasn’t stupid, he’s heard about Kazutora’s crush on you. He was going to have to be even more careful and act quickly if doesn’t want you stolen from him. He then looks back at you when he feels you carefully set a bandaid on his cheek.

"There! All done." You then kissed two of your fingers, placing it on the bandaid you just applied. "Hope you feel better soon!"

You smile sweetly before cleaning up, missing the blush on Chifuyu's face and the pout on Kazutora's lips. You then walked into the kitchen, also making him a cup of hot tea. After sharing conversation and light snacks, Kazutora was the first to leave while Chifuyu stayed behind to finish his tea.

"I'm still really sorry about today." You hear him as you walk him to the door once everything is put away.

"Chifuyu-kun, it's okay, really!"

"I know, but it doesn't mean I don't feel bad. Please let me make it up to you." His green eyes look at you pleadingly.

"Alright, alright." You agree and before he leaves, he tells you where and what time to meet him, but nothing else. So while you start getting ready for bed, poor Chifuyu is still up and awake, last minute planning for tomorrow.
