Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Zhongli~
For someone so calm and collected 24/7 he’s still unsure of how he managed to fall for someone that’s constantly overworking theirselves into a trembling mess at least once a week.
When you first came home one day with a bloody nose he was prepared to commence with the wrath of the rock istg
When you told him that it just happens sometimes with the most causal attitude you could muster without passing out he just kinda stopped and was like
?????
Deadass just stopped and looked at you with the most deadpan expression ever and was like:
“My dear, I don’t quite believe that’s as ordinary as you try to make it out to be”
After this happens a couple more times he starts to become very good at taking care of you!
As soon as he picks up signs that you’re overworking he’ll immediately make sure to get some tissues and force you to stop whatever you’re doing and pin you to the bed in the most innocent way possible.
If he doesn’t pick up on you destroying your physical and mental state then be prepared for a hour long lecture about how you should take care of yourself!
He just wants you to be safe. He’s already lost so many people he’s loved and wants to make sure you’re ok!
Tumblr media
Thoma~
The panic attacks you give to is poor man-
Genuinely thinks you’re about to die every time you show up with blood spurtin’ out your nose.
Has medical supplies at all times
When you told him it happens when you push yourself too much he makes sure to do everything for you when he can!
Makes you food and does chores like the precious housewife he is.
When you’ve been working too long he’ll force you to take a break and give you a nice massage even if you don’t ask for one!
He’ll ask Ayato to put a word in with your boss or teacher to take it a little more easy on you.
It’s not that he thinks you can’t handle the work
Which you can’t you dumbass
He just doesn’t like seeing how much of a toll it takes on your body
He just loves you so much and wants to make sure you’re ok~
Tumblr media
Kazuha~
He’s like a concerned parent who also loves you too much to be angry
He understands how important the work you have is but really doesn’t like how you push yourself to literal destruction.
When you first start getting a nose bleed he’d act very calm and do his best to make sure you were ok while sitting you down to rest
But you can bet your ass his poor little heart was terrified something bad had happened ;-;
He has trauma ok! Who fucking doesn’t in this game
Doesn’t have the heart to tell you to stop what you’re doing but does do everything in his power to distract you
Oh look. He found a pretty view and needs you to come and see it with him
It’s life or death
Trust him.
He found these fruits he found and thought you’d like to try them but he needs you to eat them with him so he knows your opinion.
Such a sneaky boy.
If you refuse to peel your eyes away from whatever you’ve been torturing yourself with the last who knows how long-
He’ll finally voice his opinions and tell you to stop.
He never has a harsh or demanding tone
It’s always sounds so soft and caring
Because he is!
You’re like a beautiful flower that even though he knows you can withstand harsh conditions he still wants to protect and care for you!
It’s also impossible to say no to him he gives you his pretty smile and puppy eyes
He’s a beautiful boy with a beautiful heart
And it belongs to you completely~
Tumblr media
Thoma’s was kinda short because I’m running out of brain juice for him today ;-;
I’ll be catching up with the other requests in a few days I’m just going through some stuff with my mom not accepting me being no-binary which is really disheartening just randomly inserts a rant wtf but I assure I will get to all the requests sent in :P

A Heart’s a Heavy Burden
Abby Anderson x GN! Reader
Tumblr media
After arriving on Catalina Island, Abby is afraid to let her guard down. She lives with this constant crushing weight on her chest that she fears will never leave her. It’s not until she meets the reader that things begin to change.
Warnings: Copious amounts of fluff, swearing, basically just a lot of cute shit lol
Anon requested one where the reader goes on a hike with Abby and Lev, I hope you guys enjoy (especially if you requested it) <3 it’s been really nice getting back into writing and this request was so adorable aaaa.
A/N: I know it’s been a while since I’ve posted and for that I apologize. In the meantime, I hope this will suffice. Also peep the Howl’s Moving Castle quote I used for the title lol
After the death of her father and that night in the theatre, Abby has come to the realization that pain and suffering is nothing if not inevitable. There has never been a point in time in which an instance of joy or peace is not soon followed by the truest forms of human depravity. When Abby and Lev arrived in Santa Barbara she thought things would be different. She was filled with this brand new feeling of optimism that she thought was long forgotten, and for the first time in forever she had hope.
Then—almost as if some higher being was mocking her for finally letting her guard down—the Rattlers happened, and it all came crashing down. As easily as a sandcastle is destroyed by the tide, that newfound happiness was gone in an instant and that feeling of despair returned once again. She had almost become accustomed to the suffering and heartache that accompanied those short increments of happiness. 
So when Abby and Lev arrived on Catalina Island, naturally Abby was incredibly grateful, but she was also fucking terrified. The moment that she stepped onto the shore, Abby vowed to never let her guard down again. She never wanted to see Lev hurt again, especially after everything he’d already been through.
It’s easy to imagine how difficult life can be when every happy moment is squandered by the fear of something inevitably terrible happening. It’s been months on Catalina Island and that normalcy Abby has missed so much was beginning to return, yet she is still afraid. A large part of Abby knows that being captured by the Rattlers isn’t her fault, but nevertheless she still feels this tremendous weight on her chest. Bearing down on her, compressing her into something small. 
There is something different about Catalina Island though. Something that makes Abby feel as though—despite everything that has already happened—things will be different here. It’s you.
You were one of the first faces Abby saw when her and Lev arrived on the shore. She had sustained multiple injuries and was suffering from severe starvation and dehydration, Lev the same. You however were in the infirmary for a fractured ankle, and due to the shortage of space she was placed in the bed next to yours. 
There was something you noticed about Abby the moment she sat down next to you. You couldn’t quite place it at the time but thinking back, it was definitely her eyes. There was so much pain behind them. You didn’t know why or how you knew, but it was there. Maybe it was because you had seen that same pain in the mirror that sits idle in the darkness of your room, the one covered by a tattered white sheet. It didn’t matter though, because all you knew was that the pain was there, and you wanted nothing more than to show her that life can be okay.
You woke up early today, laying in bed and trying to shake the sleep from your body, you counted the dust particles that floated in the small beam of sunlight that peeked through your window. While you lay basking in the warmth and stillness of your bedroom, you heard a quiet knock on your door. A small voice followed, it was Lev.
“Y/N? Are you awake?” 
“Yeah, just give me a sec.” You carefully rolled out of bed before slipping on a hoodie and answering the door. 
When you opened the door Lev had a huge smile on his face. “Hi Y/N!” 
That was something you really admired about him. Even after everything him and Abby had been through, he was just full of this giddy optimism that continued to wonder you every day. 
“Hey Lev, what’s up?” 
“I was wondering if you wanted to come on a hike with Abby and I? Apparently there’s something she wants to show you.” 
“Of course, I’d love to! Just let me get ready and I’ll head down in a bit.” Just as the words slipped out Lev embraced you tightly. You giggled as he leapt into your arms. 
“Awesome! I’ll go let Abby know.” Lev released you from his grip before hurriedly running downstairs.
When you found the two waiting outside your room, you couldn’t help but grin at the sight of Abby and her adorable freckles. She looked so much happier now, having grown her hair out a bit and built up some of the muscle mass she had lost. 
“You ready to go?” Abby had her hands hooked in the straps of her backpack as she took a small step closer to you. 
“You bet your ass I am.” 
As Abby led you and Lev along the shoreline you noticed how her skin was almost glowing. You figured it was most likely a product of all the time she spent helping out in the California sun. 
Rather than resting like any normal person would’ve, as soon as Abby was back on her feet, she was desperate to help out as much as she could. Whether it was patrolling the beaches or running the farms, she didn’t care. She just wanted to help. 
It seemed like it was a way for her to somehow compensate for being rescued off of the coast, and you wished you could tell her that she didn’t owe anyone anything—that after everything she went through to get here, there was nothing to repay. Of course though, it’s difficult to console someone when they haven’t exactly told you what was troubling them.
The shoreline bordered between an abundance of rocky cliffs and the tide, and the area was littered with lush greenery. Lev walked ahead of the two of you, jumping from rock to rock with surprising ease.
“Be careful Lev! There are sharks in that water you know.” Abby yelled at Lev to no avail. It was sweet how protective she was over him, even though she knew he wouldn’t fall.
You lightly nudged Abby’s shoulder with yours, the warmth of her skin against yours was comforting. You gave her a small reassuring smile. “He’ll be fine Abs, you know he can handle himself.” 
Abby sighed, looking down for a brief moment before continuing. “You’re right… I just worry you know.” 
“Yeah, I get it. You know, you’re actually pretty cute when you get all protective.” You said it teasingly, but you’d be lying if there wasn’t a small ounce of truth to the words.
Abby smiled, blushing at the comment, but it was difficult to tell in the sunlight. She was grateful the sun had already made her cheeks a light shade of pink. “Shut up.” 
It was nice with Abby and Lev. You spent the day burying Abby in the sand on the beach and chasing the crabs that hid under the rocks with Lev. Abby had packed a whole bunch of food in her bag, and the three of you quickly devoured it all. 
While Lev was building a shark out of sand, you and Abby laid side by side as you basked in the warm sun. After a bit you felt a shift next to you as Abby rolled on her side, leaning on her arm while she looked down towards you. 
“Hey.” Her voice was quiet, soft, similar to Lev’s when he woke you up this morning.
You opened your eyes and nearly melted at the sight before you. Abby was completely shielding the sun from your face which created a halo effect that outlined her entire head. The small strands of hair that stuck out of her ponytail glowed like threads of gold, and you could see clearly now the freckles that danced across her face all the way down to her arms. 
You replied with a soft smile on your face as you laid there admiring all the little details of her face. “Hey.”
“Can I show you something?” 
You gave her a small nod. “Do you want me to get Lev?” As you began sitting up Abby put her hand on your arm to stop you.
“Actually, I was kind of hoping it could just be us. Is that okay?” There was a small hint of nervousness in her voice and you weren’t sure if it was due to the thought of leaving Lev alone, or if it was from something else. 
“I would love that.” The corner of Abby’s mouth curled into a small smile at your answer. 
The both of you stood up from the sand, brushing the excess off of your pants. Abby jogged over to Lev and whispered something quietly before quickly returning to you. 
When you and Abby began walking away from the beach you heard Lev’s voice in the distance. “Have Y/N back by ten o’clock young man, I have a hunting rifle and I know how to use it!” 
Abby rolled her eyes as she yelled back in response. “Yeah, yeah.”
You looked at Abby with a confused face. “He has a hunting rifle?” 
“Nah, I think he got it from a movie. I need to stop showing him those old rom-coms.” Abby chuckled as she responded and you couldn’t help but let out a small laugh as well. It’s almost annoying how infectious her laughter was.
Eventually, the two of you reached a long stream of rushing water. It wasn’t too deep, but if you were to fall in, the current was definitely strong enough to swiftly sweep you away.
There was a tiny path of rocks that travelled in a crooked line across the stream, and it was obvious it hadn’t been used in a long time. “Please tell me we aren’t going this way.”
“Come on Y/N, I got you. You trust me right?” Abby didn’t wait for a response as she grabbed your hand and led you across the mossy rocks. 
As you reached the last rock, you let out a breath of relief. All you had to do was prop yourself over the log in front of you and you were home free. Carefully, as you reached your arms up to grip onto the ridges of the bark with your fingertips, you somehow lost your footing and slipped. You yelped and nearly fell face first into the jagged rocks below you, but luckily before you could, you felt a strong arm grab your waist. Abby almost on instinct quickly hoisted you up and onto the log just before you fell to your death. 
While you laid your body down on the dirty log in an attempt to calm the adrenaline that was coursing through your veins. Abby nonchalantly stood up next to you with a huge grin, acting as if you didn't just see your life flash before your eyes two seconds ago. “See? I got you. Now let’s go.” 
You groaned. “Can I get a second? I nearly just died back there.” 
“Don’t be so dramatic Y/N, you know I’d never let anything happen to you.” Abby grabbed your hand and dragged you over the log. “Come on, we’re almost there.”
She wasn’t wrong about it not being far (and for that you were extremely grateful). It only took a couple more minutes until you finally reached your destination, and the moment you saw it, you were speechless. 
Before you was a small clearing that had a view of the entire island. There were two large trees with ripe oranges hanging from it’s branches, and an abundance of wildflowers that danced in the wind like small fairies. The sunlight that shone through the leaves on the trees reminded you of the small beam of light that you were admiring this morning, except this was a thousand times more beautiful.
“Holy shit Abs.” It was one of the most beautiful things you had ever seen, and to get to see it with Abby was seriously a dream come true.
“You know, if you don’t like it we can always head back.” Abby teased.
“Oh shut up.” You plopped down onto the soft grass beneath you, breathing in the warm air and letting the blades encompass your body. You noticed Abby was still standing and quickly patted the grass beside you “Lay down with me, you gotta experience it from here.” 
Abby lowered herself tentatively beside you, and although she tried to hide it, you could tell out of the corner of your eye that her gaze was fixed on you. 
Things between you and Abby have always been pretty platonic; sure you guys flirted every once in a while but it never extended beyond that. And as much as you’d like for the two of you to be more, you never wanted to overstep your bounds. You didn’t want to burden Abby with your feelings especially if she didn’t share them, and you definitely didn’t want to ruin your friendship. It was hard sometimes trying to ignore the longing in your heart—trying to ignore the urge to jump into her arms and kiss her whenever she gave you that adorable freckled smile, but you knew it was for the best.
However, with her gaze fixed upon you, and your fingers just inches away, something in you couldn’t help but move your pinkie just slightly in search of hers. It was a small touch. So small it could almost be accidental, but something in both of you knew it wasn’t.
You heard Abby’s breath hitch quietly and nearly pulled your hand back, but then you felt hers move towards yours. Slowly, Abby’s fingertips traced lines against your hand before lacing them together with yours. The gesture was so sweet you nearly melted.
When you turned your head to face her, her cheeks were flushed and her eyes squinted closed like she was waiting for a bomb to go off. It was in that moment that you realized she felt the same longing that you did—that she knew of the ache that occupied your heart, and everything just clicked. 
You tightened your grip on her hand as you brought her fist to your lips, planting a soft kiss on her knuckles. The act softened her expression and she opened her eyes to look at you with that damned smile on her face. 
Abby propped herself up the same way she had at the beach, looking down at you with those beautiful blue eyes. The wind blew loose strands of hair across her face, and you reached up to brush them behind her ear. But instead of retracting your hand, you rested your palm lightly against her cheek, tracing small circles with your thumb. 
Leaning closer, Abby finally broke the silence. “Hey Y/N?”
Your voice was quiet and raspy as you responded with a small. “Yeah?”
She was closer now, her nose against yours and her warm breath fanning across your face. “Can I kiss you?” 
You didn’t respond. Instead you closed the small gap with your lips, kissing Abby tenderly. It was the kind of kiss you couldn’t ever explain to anyone, like a dream you couldn’t quite recall but knew was good. It was perfect.
You could feel her smiling against your mouth as she ran her fingers through your hair and down to your chin.
When Abby pulled away she had this stupid grin on her face, and it was easily the cutest thing you had ever seen. 
“You have no idea how long I’ve wanted to do that for.” Abby laid back down next to you as she let out a sigh of relief.
As you rolled over to rest your head on her chest, Abby’s arm moved to hold you closer. “You’re kidding, right?” She looked at you, urging you to continue. “Abby, I’ve been waiting to do that ever since you gave me that seashell in the infirmary.”
Your heart swelled as you recalled how nervous she was—how she didn’t say a word to you the entire time there, until that day when she shakily introduced herself. It was one of the sweetest gestures anyone had ever done for you, and you’ve adored her ever since.
Abby blushed when you brought up the seashell. She remembers that day clearly; you were leaving the infirmary because your ankle had finally healed, and she saw her opportunity to meet you begin to narrow. Abby initially wasn’t going to go up to you because she was way too afraid, but Lev had seen the way Abby looked at you and forced her to go over and introduce herself. 
He is pretty much the entire reason you and Abby were here in the first place, having given Abby that small purple seashell so she could give it to you.
As you lay there listening to the sound of Abby’s heartbeat you heard a rustle in the bushes nearby and nearly jumped out of your skin. Abby quickly stood up, the both of you backing away from the noise. Reaching for the closest thing to you, you grabbed a stick and pointed it towards the source of the rustling. “Who’s there?”
Relief flooded through you as Lev jumped out with his hands up, screaming sarcastically. “Oh no! Please don’t murder me with that tiny stick.” 
While Lev giggled hysterically, both you and Abby groaned. 
“So did you guys finally kiss or did all my work go to waste?” 
Abby rolled her eyes as she reached out to nudge Lev. “You’re such a goober.” 
Lev looked at the two of you suspiciously as he crossed his arms. “You didn’t answer my question.” 
Abby gave him an amused face as she reached for you without warning, picking you up bridal style. And you couldn’t help but giggle as she leaned in and planted a short kiss on your lips. Abby then pulled away and placed you back on your feet, looking at Lev as she spoke “Did that answer your question?” 
Lev excitedly embraced the both of you with a gigantic smile of his face. “You have no idea how long I’ve been waiting for this.” 
You and Abby looked at each other happily as you answered in unison. “Trust me, we know.”
The three of you spent the rest of the evening in that small clearing. Abby held Lev on her shoulders as he picked ripe oranges from the trees, and when the sun began to set you lay in Abby’s arms as you watched the cascading pinks and oranges in the clouds paint the sky.
While you lay in Abby’s arms she looked at you with a sense of contentment that she hadn’t felt in a long time. Time had healed the wounds that decorated Abby’s arms, and though the emotional baggage still weighed heavy on her heart, life was brighter here with the Fireflies—with Y/N.
She knew in that moment that it didn’t matter if things came crashing down as it almost always did. The pain and suffering of life was worth enduring because Abby no longer feared the inevitable. She had found something to fight for here and as long as she had you and she had Lev, Abby would continue to fight regardless of the obstacles that stood in her way.

Miraculous: Tales of Kick-Ass
requested by a lovely anon 💕
Dave Lizewski x fem!reader (miraculous au)
warnings: cursing.
word count: 1814
Tumblr media
a/n: Dave has a kwami!! Cause if we are going with Miraculous au, we are doing it properly.
Tumblr media
“I am here again, live ,with New York’s favourite superhero battling against his archnemesis in the background. But do not worry! I just saw Hit Girl arrive at the scene and they seem to have everything under control.” the reporter, Lizzie Blonde, says through the tv in Atomic Comics. You are not sure when all of this has started, when New York turned into a battlefield for superheros and supervillains. New York used to be normal. Alright, scratch that, New York was always one crazy place. 
Not that you mind particularly, you were always a fan of superheroes and comics and to see them, in your city? That was beyond exciting. Not to mention your major crush on kick-Ass.
You took a sip from your milkshake and looked around the comic store. Dave should be here by now. Not that you are surprised he is not here. He is always late nowadays. Marty and Todd fanboyed next to you about hit Girl as you kept looking at your phone and the door, waiting for your best friend to give any sign of him.
In the tv the superhero pair just took out the Motherfucker’s minions.  You sigh a bit worried. What if Dave got in trouble? What if he is in that part of the city where the fight is going on? It’s only a few blocks away and if he got hurt it would explain why he is not responding to your messages..
You hesitantly stood up and walked outside the shop. You heard a loud crash in the distance. You bit your lip, debating whether you should go and look for Dave or not. You heard a loud cheer coming from outside, the heros probably won. Again.
You finally decided to go and look for Dave, so you started speed walking toward the street you saw in the news. Maybe you will not only find Dave but see Kick-Ass too! 
Of course Dave is more important but.. You saw a green figure flash from one of the rooftops. You gasped, Kick-Ass jumped on a building, only a few meters away from you. 
The hero seemed to notice you and waved his hand at you. 
You almost fainted, but went to grab your phone to take a picture of him but by the time you looked up he was long gone. You looked around confused but quickly remembered why you came. You started running again, when from an alleyway someone ran into you.
“AAA”
“AAAA” 
“Oh my god y/n!”
“Dave! What are you doing here?” you grasp your chest, hoping your heart won’t fall out of its place.
“I could ask the same!”
“I was worried about you! So I came looking and..Are you alright?” you carefully touch his cheek where a small cut is, slightly bleeding.  The boy slightly brushes your hand away and tries to hide the light pink flash on his cheek.
“I’m fine, I was on my way to Atomic’s when the fight started and I figured I would be safer here.” he lied effortlessly. You nodded.
“I’m glad you are okay.” you say, before remembering what happened a few seconds ago. “Oh my gosh, Dave! I was walking on the street looking for you and you will never believe what happened! Kick-Ass, The Kick-Ass saw me and waved! Ahh! It was so awesome!”
Dave laughed softly, “I bet it was. Let’s go back to Atomic’s, okay?”
 You guys spend most of your afternoon there, talking about the fight and the superhero duo.
“..so in conclusion, I love Hit Girl and she is so awesome. But Kick-Ass? Gosh, he is so hot!” you gesture with your hands. Dave clears his throat and lifts his drink to his lips. Marty rolls his eyes at you.
“You can’t even see his face!” he throws his hand in the air. Dave and Todd start laughing.
“Hey, man, leave the girl alone.” Dave says, slightly nudging your side. “But really y/n, Kick-Ass could be a nerd like me, for all you know.”
“That would be some Peter Parker shit.” you say grabbing a french fry. “But, I don’t really care for his looks, like.. The idea of him? You know? Like  he is a motherducking hero for Stan Lee's sake!"
" That's kinda.. I don't know. Shallow? Having a crush on someone you don't even know? " Dave says and barely noticeably tucks a small piece of pizza in his pocket. Before you can say anything Todd beats you to it. 
"Well that's rich coming from the guy who was practically drooling over Scarlet Witch in The Ultimates." 
"That's a completely different thing." 
Todd opens his mouth to respond when the harsh sound of the news channel floods the comic shop. You all turn to the tv and see that New York is once again under attack. Dave furrows his eyebrows. 
"Twice?" he asks himself. Before he jumps up from the booth you all are sitting at. 
"I just uhm… I just remembered I have to rush home to help my dad!" 
"Yo dude, what the heck?" yells Todd after your best friend. 
"Sorry, guys I have to run!" and with that Dave is out the door, leaving all his friends including you, confused and kinda upset. He finds the first alleyway and soon his kwami flies out of his pocket. 
"Dave? What's going on? We never have to fight twice a day." the little kwami, Kai says. His name is not actually Kai but as he is a lost kwami he never learned what his name is so Dave was the one to give him the name Kai. 
"I don't know, little dude but we better check it out." 
There wasn't anything big, Chris Damico just couldn't take the fact that he lost again and angrily tried to strike at the innocent citizens of New York in hopes of destroying Kick-Ass too. Instead he ended up getting his.. Well getting his ass kicked. 
Dave didn't change back just yet, instead he jumped from rooftop to rooftop to get home. It got pretty late so it would be stupid to go back to Atomic Comics as you guys probably left. He felt bad for bailing on you again. He hated leaving you. Even if he could play superhero and save people. The look on your face every time he rushed away to a fight? Ugh, he hates it. 
Dave jumps down to an alleyway to transform back when a girl turns into the alley. Wait. It's not just a girl, it's you! 
Dave tries to jump behind trash bags to hide but you already saw him. 
"Kick-Ass?" he hears your voice. He sighs and comes out of his impromptu hiding spot. 
"Haha, guilty as charged."
"Oh my gosh, we met earlier! You waved at me, do you remember? Ah, of course you don't, you meet so many people every day." you would have kept on rambling if it wasn't for Dave. He tried his hardest not to giggle at your fangirling, that he knows oh so well and said. 
" I actually do remember you y/-, random citizen! " 
Fuck! Dave curses himself. He almost said your name! Stupid, stupid, stupid! 
You did seem to hear anything but the fact that your superhero crush remembered you from earlier. You felt your cheeks heating up a bit. 
"You.. You do? Gosh, really? That's so awesome, you are like… ahgh you are so awesome."
"You think so?" Kick-Ass asks, smiling. "Well, you seem like a pretty awesome girl, too. What is a pretty, awesome girl like you doing out this late?" 
Dave feels weird talking to you like this, cause you don't know he is actually your best friend but… Dave also finds that a bit helpful? He could never compliment you as Dave, not like this. He would end up blushing and dying from embarrassment. But Kick-Ass? He is a cool dude, who has no problem flirting with the ladies. 
"Oh, well I was hanging with my friends at Atomic Comics." 
"So you like superheros?" he asks, leaning against a wall in a 'cool way'. 
"Oh, yeah."you nod, gulping."I love them." 
You slowly mingled in conversation. Dave softly flirted with you every once in a while and you always responded with a sweet smile and some nice comeback. Both of you were so in the conversation, you didn't even bother to pay attention to your surroundings. Dave for example, didn't even hear the beeping, the warning that he would transfer back from Kick-Ass to Dave Lizewski. When he realized what was going on it was already too late. His kwami fell tiredly into his hands. 
"Oh shit, oh no, oh shit, shit.. Aah." Dave looked around for help, any help but it was worthless. You already saw him transform. You know. 
Dave slowly, terrified of your reaction, gazed over to you. 
But you just stared at him.
"Look, n/n-"
"This is some Peter Parker shit." you whispered,still starring. But then you snapped out of it. "What the actual fuck, Dave?" 
"I know, I know, I am so sorry y/n! I couldn't tell you and fuck! I am so sorry for flirting with you, it's just I could never have the confidence to do that as Dave and- Ah, I just ruined our friendship and I think I should just leave.." he turned around and tried to walk away but you grabbed his hand and pulled him back. You quickly pressed your lips against his. Dave barely had time to react, he froze. Was this really happening? Is this a dream? 
" You are a real asshole, Dave. "you say after pulling away." You are lucky I love you. "
"You what?" Dave asks with his eyes wide open. "I thought you had a 'major crush' on Kick-Ass." 
"Well, yeah, but I like you better." you say with a small smile. Before Dave can say anything you spot the tired kwami in his hand. "Dave, what the fuck is that?" 
"Oh shit." he pulls out a small snack from his pocket and gives it to Kai who starts munching on it immediately. "He is Kai. He is my kwami, he is basically the source of my powers." 
"Uhm, hi." you wave at the small creature. 
The kwami looks up at you and then at Dave. 
"This is wrooong." 
"Shut up, little dude." he turns to you, scratching his back with his free hand. "So, uhm can I walk you home… as not your best friend?" 
You shake your head with a laugh. 
"I want nothing more." you take his hand and you two walk with huge smiles on both of your faces. 
Maybe this was an accident, but at the end of the day Kick-Ass defeated his enemy, saved New York twice, but it was Dave Lizewski who ended up getting the girl.

Here's how I imagined Kai, his kwami (i am no digital artist, i know it look horrible 😂😂) :

Hi there! So you did the Twst boys reacting to their s/o getting rejected+slapped by Elise, but what about them reacting to Elise accepting and getting a crush on s/o? Like Elise is torn between wanting Idia and their s/o type deal? All I see is some cute fluffy funny stuff for this event which is awesome but sometimes I just gotta have some jealous conflicted boys. Love your writing! (♡Id love it if you could do all of them but if not, Id really like Idia, Malleus, Leona, and Jade's reactions♡)
Aaaa pretty cool idea anon~ bonus : Vil Schoenheit
♦♥♠♣
Tumblr media
You what ? Malleus wasn't allowed to be there but neither were you ; how dare others ask you to do such a shameful thing ?? You are his and only his , that is enough to clarify that he surely doesn't like it when Lilia announces thar you of all people have won the ghost princess's heart .
Your charm and beauty are indubitably stunning ; from inner beauty to outer beauty so Malleus isn't really fascinated to see that you aren't rejected ; what is bothering him is.... something else . Sebek told him that Eliza isn't yet sure on her decision since the Shroud guy was the first to catch her eye , but Malleus doesn't care. He doesn't blame Eliza for choosing you , he too would've done the same...
He isn't going to argue even a single word with you on that , but he isn't about to congratulate either ; he prefers to pretend as this has never happened
When he comes for you around the midnight as the mysterious tsunotarou , you are more than excited to tell him everything that happened today and he gladly listens , but when you get to the point where you proposed , it is a bit too hard for him to hide his frowned expression , and surely doesn't respond when you ask him what's wrong
Your help as a friend who saved all school and a student's life is appreciable , but to become someone else's partner even for a fake marriage when Malleus's mind was wandering to you afraid if you're okay or not all day , that seems a bit too unfair to our dragon boy
Tumblr media
" Excuse me...?" Well of course he needs help but at what cost ? No no no , he wasn't planning on you being chosen . Just who the hell allowed you to propose !? Being tied up here doesn't mean that you are free to flirt with others ; even as a joke !
Idia keeps nagging to the walls ( His only friends for now...) , a bit angry jealous at you because you proposed to someone he doesn't like and more importantly ; you proposed to someone else than him
He cannot stop thinking about it now , what if it was him and not Eliza ? Would you propose to him for real ? He is aware of this idea being absolutely lame and silly but he can't really help it
Oh god , how lucky Eliza is to be the one you proposed to and not Idia . He finds the thought of Eliza still having a doubt between you and him nonsense ; why would she need Idia as long you're there ? Idia is still too unprepared for a marriage and he's well aware of it , but he keeps wondering if he would be ever worthy of being proposed to and asked to be one's partner by someone special ? Someone like...you ?
Even after being released , he acts a bit cool with you , telling that he's too tired to chat. He sneaks into his room and takes his anger on other gamers for the rest of the night : " Who says that I'm angry !? I'm not !"
Tumblr media
First of all , why you of all people was hired to try such a stupid thing ? You come from no royal family and aren't even a student of NRC , no need to mention that you have no magic either
Seeing you succeed is supposed to be good news for hum since he can soon return to his peaceful sleep , but something seems off about it , something is annoying him
He had teased you before wards telling that you'd even get slapped twice considering how lower you are comparing to the prince charming this ghost is dreaming about , so seeing you coming out with a yes while he got slapped himself was much of a pitty
well he doesn't care that much about getting rejected , but when you tell him that the bride was kinda cute and kind to accept you of all people , he almost loses it . Does this mean that this Eliza is nice and he is mean !?
He doesn't care to argue or show his jealousy , so just takes his leave ignoring you , leaving you behind with a fascinated gaze ; even a tired lion like him can harass like a child...
You wonder , are you wrong or is he really jealous of Eliza because you said she's cute ?
Tumblr media
So the young , little (y/n) is the one to make it out of all people , interesting . Not that Jade looked down to you , but rather because he even doubted you liking to try ; specially with him there watching you
Marine life is considerably different on that point and a male eel would certainly like to punish his mate for such an arrogant action . Well it's a very short and forcedly established relationship , but to do that with no sense of obligation toward your real partner...?
Doesn't matter how angry Jade is , you'll see nothing but the smile he always puts on . He is perfect at hiding his thoughts and emotions , which sometimes terrifies you .
You have no idea how furious he is right now , but to see that his actions don't hold even a very small sign of anger or jealousy...you knew him better than this to know that he's faking it
He'd surely cool down when this bride's existence is taken away from NRC , so he finds arguing on it pretty useless . Yet he still wants to tease you a little bit
His ways of torture are just as sugar-coated as his personality : He starts questioning you : Did you like Eliza? Is she lovely? Don't you feel guilty that you've lied her ? Are you seriously going to leave her all alone after making her trust you...?
Ah yes , he knows how to make you suffer
Tumblr media
How dare you , he had forbidded you from even thinking of getting involved . Well true , he probably was expecting you to be rejected within a second . You are great , but not complete . Even Vil himself wasn't complete at this bride's attitude
He didn't want you proposing because he would've probably lost it if someone insulted you like this , not a single soul should dare laying a finger on his darling ; specially when he's right there by your side
His getting rejected was enough for him to get pissed off and head out for a moment , but what does he return to ? You proposed and you succeeded
Vil doesn't know if he should congratulate or be mad , his brain seems to be slowing down . Now you're getting married ??
What were you thinking with yourself ? What if the rings Sam gave don't work !? You don't even have any magic to protect yourself from these arrogant ghosts sorrounding you ; then he'll lose you forever
Vil doesn't mind throwing you to a corner and shouting all his thoughts at you . When he's finally done arguing , he cools down just a little
He knows that you meant good , but why did you risk yourself for something this worthless ? All those proud potatoes showing off with their non-existing perfection backed up and you have to be the one sacrificing yourself ?
Well , perhaps all he can do is to make sure that everything goes perfectly ; from putting on your makeup to practicing movements and the wedding dance with you . If you're going to be a groom/bride , let's prove Eliza that Idia is no match for you

🍁🍂🍁🍂Alright, since its mid-September, its time for my annual spooky movie reccomedation list! I include ratings, and I can include trigger warnings for any of these films upon request as well! I'm also looking for horror movies to watch myself, so feel free to comment/ask any as well!! So, here we go, in no particular order...🍁🍂🍁🍂
Tumblr media
Fantasy/sci-fi horror:
The Thing 1982 [R]: A group of scientists find a shapeshifting alien underneath the ice in Antarctica, and they just survive as it imitates them. Trust no one. The Thing is one of my favorite movies in general. Its scary, retro, and the special effects are insane. It reminds me of classic Lovecraft, but better. Very terrifying. 10/10
Pan's Labyrinth 2006 [R]: During the Spanish Civil War, a young girl named Ofelia enters a world of twisted fantasy while above, her step-father's brutality causes trouble in the midst of a rebellion. Genuinely a beautiful movie. It's like a fairy-tale, and sometimes you forget it's a horror movie. It's simply magical, but frighteningly real. If you love classic fantasy, monsters, history, and horror, you'll love this movie. 10/10
Alien 1979 [R]: A team on a shipping vessel in soace come in contact with a parasitic alien within the clausterphobic confines of the ship. A classic, and it's still absolutely terrifying. Sharp insight on early 80's consumerism (in more than one sense), and a marvel of alien horror. Its very claustrophobic, tense, and 100% worth watching, especially if you love scifi. 10/10.
Aliens 1986 [R]: Continuing the story of Alien, space marines must investigate a distress signal from a colony, and what they find is more horrifying than they could have imagined. Full of retro action, humorous quips, scares, and plenty of bullet spray, it's a terrifying and fun watch. I enjoyed it just as much as the original, and its just awesome, while being scary at times. 10/10
Annihilation 2018 [R]: After the mysterious death of her husband, a Biologist goes into Area X to discover what horrifying cosmic entity his team found there. Not nearly as good, or accurate as the book (I CANT reccomend the Southern Reach trilogy enough), but this movie genuinely frightened me at points and the setting is simply beautiful. Its clever, creepy, and it's a strange watch. 8/10
Signs 2002 [PG-13]: After strange symbols appear in the cornfields on a family's farm, they must protect each other, and their faith, during the invasion. Love this movie, it's just spooky enough, but outside if the monsters, the people in this movie are what really matter. It's compelling, and a beautiful story. Simply excellent. Plus you'll know where the screaming guy in a closet meme comes from after seeing this one. 10/10
A Quiet Place 2018 [PG-13]: Could you survive a world where making a single sound could spell your death? Monsters decend upon the Abbot family, just as a baby is on the way. One of my favorite movies ever. Its beautiful and ABSOLUTELY horrifying. I think I forgot about eating my popcorn while watching this one. Overall, the desperate survival of the Abbots is heartwarming, but oh so stressful. If you can, PLEASE watch the sequel right after this one. 10/10
A Quiet Place 2 2021 [PG-13]: The Abbots face new challenges as they traverse a devestated landscape, and monsters wait around every dark corner for them. An EXCELLENT sequel. I caught myself actually going "NOOO AAAA" at some points, and its totally a worthy sequel to the scares in the first one. Again, great story, great characters, great cinematography, great message. 10/10.
Coraline 2009 [PG]: Coraline Jones, unhappy with moving to a new house, suddenly finds a whimsical world in a little hidden tunnel inside the house, but she learns the sinister truth behind the candy-colored world beyond the wall. Dont let the stop-motion animation confuse you; this movie is terrifying. A classic from my childhood, and its a treat to watch every Halloween. The Beldam has to be on the list of the most horrifying villains ever. 10/10
Zombies, ghosts, ghouls, and everything in between:
The Haunting 1963 [G]: Based on the novel The Haunting of Hill House, a group of people must stay in a supposedly haunted mansion. Eleanor, one of the women, suddenly believes that the house is talking directly to her. One of the many adaptations of the book, it's spooky, and it's very disturbing, while also having a nice theme. Perfect for setting the mood on a October night. 8/10
Night of The Living Dead 1990 [R]: Survivors take shelter in an abandoned farm house while the undead attack. Can they work together, or let their own prejudices get the best of them? I havent seen the original yet, but I love this movie. Very scary, and its directed by Tom Savini, so lots of good ol zombie gore. Not only that, there's a good bit of social commentary here on racism. The classic was the original zombie film. 9/10.
Dawn of The Dead 1978 [R]: As the undead rise up, survivors take to a shopping mall in order to survive. I don't know how to describe this movie's vibe. It has this weird retro 70's feel, mixed with uncanny horror. It's campy at times, but it doesn't take away the scariness. Very fun in a weird way, and its an on-the-nose satire of american consumerism. 10/10
Train To Busan 2016 [R]: While the world crumbles around them, a small group of survivors must learn to protect each other on a train headed to Busan. Seriously, please watch this one. It's completely unique to any zombie film I've seen. It's scary, but you genuinely care about the characters, and its VERY intense. Love this one. 10/10
Murder and ect:
Scream 1990 [R]: A masked serial killer stalks high school students in middle class suburbia. Its a parody of the modern horror genre, clever and scary all at once. I enjoyed it as a classic and I liked the commentary on how violence with no essence effects people, especially when glorified with horror films. Definitely not for everyone, but its good never the less. 8/10
Wait Until Dark 1967 [NR (I give it a PG-13)]: A gang of criminals looking for heroin attack the home of a blind woman, and it turns into a horrifying game of back and forth between them, until it can go on no longer. Literally one of the best thriller movies ever. Genuinely scary, and genuinely clever. This was actually the first film I saw Audrey Hepburn act in. Super tense near the end, I was biting my nails the whole time. 10/10
The Village 2004 [PG-13]: A rural community is faced with a hard decision as the monsters in the woods leave bloody warnings around their small town. I watch this one every autumn. Its atmospheric, the score is breathtaking, and its a great story. Its beautiful, gently frightening, and its overall a love story. I love this one a lot, even though I know a lot of people didnt like it. Don't go in expecting a great twist at the end, and you'll enjoy it. 10/10
Jane Eyre 2011 [PG-13]: Jane Eyre becomes the governness to an estate, and find a dark secret there. Not necessarily horror, but its gothic and absolutely beautiful. Its the perfect october movie. I love it lots. Nothing hits different than a rainy october day, a cup of chai tea, and this movie playing. 10/10
TV Series:
Stranger Things 2016- [PG-13]: After a child is taken by a supernatural force, the small town community of Hawkins must search for answers and find him before its too late, but as they search, a horrifying conspiracy comes to life before them. I adore this series. Its a love letter to the 80s. Cant reccomend it enough. 10/10
The Twilight Zone 1959-1964 [PG]: A serialized series featuring many different stories ranging from scifi to horror and everything inbetween. Its genius honestly. Each story is compelling, and thought provoking. A great Halloween watch. 10/10
The Walking Dead 2010- (seasons 1 & 2) [R]: A sheriff wakes up from a coma to find himself in a terrifying world of the undead. Its a decent series, at least in the first two seasons! Its pretty scary. Its great if you like zombie movies! 7/10
Over The Garden Wall 2014 [PG]: Two brothers find themselves lost within the world of the Unknown, a place where time is blended together and reality isn't quite right. Ok, real talk here. Its my favorite series of all time. I could go on and on and on about it. If you haven't seen it, please I beg you. Theres nothing like it. Its literally the BEST autumn show to watch. Clever, funny, lightly disturbing, deep, nostalgic...its fantastic. 11/10
So, there you have it. Huge list of horror movies I've enjoyed and actually reccomend. I have seen quite a few more than this (Halloween, Dawn of the Dead 2004, Nightmare on Elm Street, ect), but I specifically picked out the ones I love the most. Enjoy! And have a great autumn.

SD ANON BUT I AM 20 NOW! what the fuck ! what the fuck ! i still feel 18! but i am going to the tide pools for my birthday with two friends who are in town! tragic thing about being in college is that your spring break either doesn’t align w high school friends’ or your college friends go to their homes BUT some of my hs friends came back early so i am excited and also like. existentially terrified a bit about my early 20s.
ANYWAYS a ton of things have happened since last time i responded!! i kept meaning to and then another Thing would happen so. car crash poem went over very well my established poet prof was like. i thought you were an english major. and also said she would waive any prereqs for me if i wanted to take her advanced poetry class which !! requires a manuscript acceptance usually!!
soba stir fry was excellent i put in a little too much chili sesame oil but once i got used to the spicy it was fantastic
well see my roommate is 19 and he is now 24. but whatever! she is an adult. the big news is that my other roommates have broken up in a Big Thing that was like. not just a dating thing also a roommate boundary thing. and it is not my roommate’s fault at all. it’s such a long story but basically the other one literally won’t acknowledge she did smth wrong/apologize to my roommate/apologize to me/have a conversation instead of running away every weekend
so. she is finding a way to get out of her lease. good riddance imo she was Something.
also yes!! dishes + stream or dishes + chuckle sandwich is my go to. now that my college doesn’t do gym reservations anymore gym is also where i catch up on vods and videos! have to hide phone screen when people walk past but i am unlearning that
arc 2 arc 2 arc 2 i love your writing and i’m always excited to see where it goes!
lyft. painful. uber is cheaper sometimes but like, i went to two concerts in feb and for one i had to ask someone to drive bc the lyft was a whole 70$ for 20 minutes
also yes! the dead kelp smell i miss it i can’t wait to be near the ocean again like it’s still cold n stuff outside but!! ocean!! i wish i could get an ocean scented candle but like a Real One
agnes hit me so hard every time and it’s so so so good man i just love glass animals ! i have heard heat waves everywhere at this point and it hasn’t gotten old but sometimes you are standing in a sally’s beauty supply thinking about how you know far too many things about why this song is playing.
i missed these conversations! work somehow just has a habit of sneaking up and drowning you!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY SD ANON!!! hope you have fun at the tide pools, they're so cool! and yeah spring break never aligns istg, I don't have spring break till next week (and I have finals rn I'm suffering)
YOOO that's so cool your prof will let you into the advanced poetry class! so awesome that she liked your poem!
oh god every time i use chili oil i end up putting too much and then i suffer but god soba stir fry with chili oil sounds so good rn im so hungry
that's a lot of roommate drama goddamn. at least the one roommate is looking to move out so you guys aren't all stuck in a very awkward situation! roommate fights are terrible especially when the other person refuses to try and work it out
lmao i still hide my phone when i'm watching streams at my favorite coffee shop. like no thanks don't need anyone to know i'm using my free time to watch a 17 year old british kid play minecraft
SEVENTY??? JESUS CHRIST tbf I guess gas is like. insane rn. but holy shit that's so much
god same i love heat waves as a song because it's a bop but it always makes me think of That and i'm like why...
and ty i'm excited for arc 2 too!! we're finally a bit into it and i'm just like yesss the entire reason i wrote this fic aaaa
i've missed our conversations too but i totally get the busy thing, I gotta go study for finals now OOPS

Zen and Jumin's weddings
ZEN AND JUMIN'S WEDDINGS
ZEN’S WEDDING
Jaehee
Obviously she was very wary about the possibility of Zen getting married, but by the time that Zen and the MC are getting married she knows those two are going to do their thing even if it's maybe not the wisest thing.
Despite her apprehension, she gets super into the wedding prep from the fandom's side, as it's too good an opportunity not to have a public face for it, and she is going to make sure it's a good one.
She almost ends up in the hospital sick with shock when Jumin gives her two weeks off as a holiday for it, so that she can prepare. It's made a little better when he dumps Elizabeth off on her halfway through. Making sure not to let cat hair get into anything related to the wedding felt close enough to 'normal crunch time' to make her feel reassured.
She tries to remain calm and composed, but it's such a beautiful ceremony, and Zen sparkles like an angel in the sunlight, and she ends up crying anyway.
Yoosung comments that she seems like a mother, and for a brief moment, her soul leaves her body. She hasn't gotten that old, has she?
During the wedding photos, MC pulls her in to pose with them for a few. She can't decide if she's more flattered or mortified, but getting a hug from Zen isn't something she'll ever complain about.
Both the couple and Jumin compliment her for the work she puts in to the wedding, and that's all well and good until she hears Jumin muttering about getting into wedding planning. She knows she heard something about cats.
Yoosung
He's soooooooooooooooooooooo jealous!
sob sob he still doesn't even have a girlfriend when the wedding happens.
Seven offering to dress up as his girlfriend there does not help.
In the end, he invites his guild to the wedding as well, and he does feel a bit better when they're jealous he even knows a girl as cute as her. He got to feel pretty smug about how everyone else was swooning and crushing on her while he was his friend! Just pretend he wasn't once crushing super hard on her.
The wedding feels kind of like some kind of celebrity production? It's fancy and flashy, and not really the kind of wedding he'd want to have, but who is he kidding? He's never getting married, ha ha h a.
Zen basically fastball pitches the garter directly at him and he has no idea what to do. He hyperventilates a bit, actually.
There's! Free! Honey Buddha Chips!
He almost vomits from overeating those, and has to sit down and think about his choices during the dance. No more Honey Buddha Chips for him for a good long time. At least a whole weekend.
He gets a little teary-eyed in the end, though, because a few years ago he never would have imagined that the RFA could have lasted this long, that everyone could come back from that cliff he'd seen, where everyone was about to fall off and fall apart. Somehow, ever since the MC appeared, everyone's lives got better, even if Zen was the only one who ended up with a girlfriend (wife! aaaa, so romantic!) out of it, and they could all stand together in a wedding now, with bright futures for everyone.
He can't help but be inspired to follow his dreams, too, even if working for C&R is harder than he expected it to be.
He's still mad that V couldn't be bothered to come and see the wedding, though. Jerk.
Jumin
He insists on funding it. Zen fights with him over it for a bit, but when he points out just how expensive it would be to cater to the rather large fanbase Zen has amassed, given that Zen decided to invite all of creation to his wedding, he eventually wins the argument. Obviously.
It's the first time he's been someone's best man, even if the offer is...unusually angry, for the subject matter.
It's not the first time he's been asked to be one, but it is the first time he actually gets to be one.
He doesn't need any woman in his life other than Elizabeth the 3rd, but he is happy to see two friends of his so happy. Love isn't really something he puts much stock into, but if there were any two people whom he could believe in when it comes to that, it's the two being married.
Although he's not as...expressive...as some of the other RFA around, he's extremely happy for them, to the point that there's a warmth in his chest that feels like it might burst out. Zen says his face looks weird, at some point, and the MC elbows Zen hard enough to knock the breath out of him.
He imagines the photos they pose for in the wedding are much like the ones in the wedding that hadn't had the chance to happen.
He chooses to believe that if V were there, his old friend would have had a wonderful time. Undoubtedly, he would have demanded to be the wedding photographer. Perhaps because of that, he finds himself often distracted by meaningless thoughts, except when MC or Zen would grab his arm or hand and yank him off into some other frivolity related to the celebration.
It isn't so bad to attend a wedding every once in a while, if it's one of his friends'.
He accidentally drinks a little too much, and at some point in the evening he's rather certain Assistant Kang physically pushes him out of a room when he'd been in serious negotiations with Luciel about an intriguing business prospect. His memory of the event is too hazy to be certain, however, so he chooses not to address it later.
Somehow he ends up in the wrong car and falls asleep in the married couple's limousine instead of his own.
Obviously he ignores Zen's annoyed lecture in the morning.
MC makes a radiant wife, and even he appreciates her bashful smile when he says so, right up until Zen forcibly ejects him from their dwelling.
Zen
He can't believe this is actually real!
It's not just a dream, it's not even one of his prophetic ones. It's real. It's actually happening. After looking forward to this and hoping for it for so long, after having to delay this for years and apologize to his disappointed girlfriend, finally! Finally he can put a ring on her hand and declare to the world "Hands off! This here is Zen's wife, and she's perfect!"
His agent and Jaehee were both pretty worried about what it might do to his career to be publicly married, given how important his sex appeal and the female part of his fanbase is...but even if it means he'll never reach his full potential and they'll just have to survive on small gigs forever, he wanted to spend his life with MC. And that meant marrying her. In public. Not in hiding. He wouldn't do that to her.
Jumin of course stuck his nose in and demanded to pay for it...and...whatever. He guesses it's not such a bad deal. Not having to worry about a budget means that it'll give Jaehee the freedom to set things up as she needs to, and it means he can also give MC whatever wedding it is she dreams of. Even if it's a blow to his pride if what she wants is something he couldn't personally afford without Jumin's help.
Why was he even worried? Of course she doesn't. Her dream is just to be with him, no matter what that means, and he clutches his heart and wonders what the hell he'd ever done to deserve someone so perfect in his life.
It's a roaring success, the wedding. Really, it's a huge turn out, and he basks in all the attention and adulation, no doubt.
But it's his love and his friends that really matter to him.
If someone told him years ago he'd ask Jumin Han, Mr. Trust Fund Kid, to be his best man at his wedding he'd have laughed and then punched that person in the face. Because it'd probably be 7. What a wild ride the world has been since meeting the MC. Making up with Jumin Han is almost more stunning than getting married, honestly.
Yoosung looks a little lost and upset, and while he now #cantrelate, he actually can.
He's not sure how much he trusts superstitions like that specifically, but it doesn't hurt to make sure he knows who gets the garter belt. Maybe Yoosung could find a cute gamer nerd girl somewhere in C&R? That's possible, right?!
It's basically picture perfect, but then they could have gotten married in an alley with a bunch of stumbling drunks and it would have felt perfect if she were beside him.
That does not mean he was willing to take Seven's suggestions about how to handle the venue, though. He's a romantic, but he's not crazy.
Has he ever seen Jumin Han drunk before? Has the world ever seen it before? He's not sure, but it's kind of funny, and his wife - oh wow, it's his wife now, he has a wife! - finds it cute. Aside from a briefly terrifying moment when someone gave Jumin a cat ear headband, it's fairly harmless anyway. It's not bad to see even the Trust Fund Kid loosen up and act like a normal person.
Right up until the damn fool ends up passed out in their car and not waking for the end of the world.
obviously he drags the trust fund kid in to sleep on the couch overnight, not in the car, but missing out on a proper wedding night is almost enough to reignite his rivalry with Jumin Han. If he can't handle his liquor then he needs to be more careful about drinking it, dammit!
His wife is, frankly, way too understanding.
But that's not the worst thing in the world for a wife to be.
It means she doesn't have any problem pretending that the morning after is the wedding night before.
707
This venue SUCKS.
If they'd asked him, he'd have set up an AWESOME WEDDING HALL. Maybe on a mountain top in the alps? Maybe in a deep sea submarine? It's be frankly awesome. The wedding guests would have to go on a three day trek through Tibet, a harrowing adventure in a rainforest, and retrieve a hidden treasure for their invites. No one would forget the wedding he planned.
For some reason, he was completely banned from even making suggestions about the wedding.
rude, honestly.
He shows up despite that, because he's just that good of a friend, even though it means sneaking out in the middle of a job and leaving a robot version of himself as a decoy to fool his maid. Okay, maybe especially because it was skipping out on work, but mostly it was just to show up and support his friends!
Also free food.
Obviously he catered all the honey buddha chips! But besides the stuff he brought, there's still a bunch of free food, and a smart man doesn't turn down free food.
Yoosung probably should consider doing that, though, as the poor kid looks pretty green there halfway through the reception. 7, great friend that he is, sticks around and comforts Yoosung until a garter basically smacks Yoosung directly in the face.
It's hard to be comforting when he can no longer breathe. He hasn't laughed that hard in ages!
It feels pretty good, honestly. Seeing Zen succeed, seeing the party coordinator fit in and find her place so well in the RFA. For a little while he'd started to believe that maybe all the good, happy days of the RFA were in the past, but then the MC appeared, and...er...despite that little bomb mishap, things had really turned around and the world had brightened.
Well, actually his life is pretty much the same as it's always been. But seeing the RFA perk up, and watching them all succeed and be happy?
It makes him happy.
The tears in his eyes are from laughter when he accidentally beans the CEO-in-line in the face with a handful of rice.
Oh man wouldn't it be funny if Jumin Han ended up in the wrong car?
JUMIN'S WEDDING
Jaehee
Weirdly enough, she's not expected to do any work to prepare for the wedding. He takes an entire month off for the wedding, which gives her waking nightmares up until he also gives her the time off as well. She's tempted not to agree, because C&R might well burn down if both of them were gone for so long...but the chances of the Chairman actually firing anyone over his son's wedding are low enough for her to go along with it.
She politely declines the offer to be the Maid of Honor, but appreciates the gesture.
Elizabeth is chosen as it instead and she immediately regrets her choices. Partly for Zen's sake. The MC is clearly a bad influence on the corporate heir, given how utterly amused she looks about this, and that it was apparently the woman's suggestion, not Jumin's.
Alas, it's too late to stop the wedding.
It goes without saying that the wedding is so extravagant that she's pretty sure she'd spend half of the budget of her entire year just on the ceremony, even with out the reception. But part of that is because the Chairman chose to sponsor it, as a gesture of approval for his son's union.
It's for the best, because it keeps the wedding from being entirely cat themed.
It's not really her place, but she's never seen the Chairman look so genuinely proud of Jumin before as when he stood in the wedding hall. Well, it's a relief to see that their relationship seems to be repaired.
There's of course plenty of press outside the venue, but there's more than enough security to keep them all outside. Only the RFA and other friends and family are allowed inside, and that's probably for the best given...the cat maid of honor thing.
She doesn't think that's the kind of kiss a groom is supposed to give the bride.
She's never seen her boss so happy.
Maybe this will be the end of cat related business opportunities?
It's not.
Zen
HE'S SO MAD
AAAA WHY THIS TRUST FUND KID?!
She's clearly happy, though. He can't say he approves of how quickly they rushed into marriage - getting engaged after only knowing each other for two weeks?! CRAZY. It's crazy!
He comes to the wedding anyway, and immediately regrets it. Why the hell is the furball there?! It's like the man is turning the wedding into some kind of a joke! It makes him want to pick a fight with the man right then and there!
He doesn't.
But he's tempted to.
It has nothing to do with the fact that Jumin is constantly guarded by the furball, okay?
He sneezes through their vows, and it serves Jumin 100% right. If he could have managed to breathe properly, the deathly look Jumin turns on him would have been returned with a smirk.
But he can't, because he can't breathe.
Because CAT.
DAMMIT THE RECEPTION IS CAT THEMED TOO
CAT PLATES
THE CAKE IS SHAPED LIKE THE FURBALL
THIS IS HELL.
But...it is good to see the RFA happy, especially MC. It's just that he can barely see that through all of his sneezing.
THE FURBALL
ATTACKED
HIM
He doesn't remember what happens after that.
When he wakes up in bed, the Trust Fund Kid and the MC are sitting nearby.
He has literally no idea of how he got home, and neither of them bother to explain it. They're up and out pretty shortly after, because they have business to attend to.
He's really, really, really sure he knows what the smirk Jumin gives him means, and it takes all he has not to drop kick the newly married heir.
What a jerk.
Yoosung
He's jealous!
The wedding hall looks like something out of a fairy tale, even more majestic than the most expensive wedding hall that players can rent out in LOLOL. He's not even the bride and even he feels kind of like a princess going into it!
He doesn't know why, but they ask him to be the best man, and he feels so fancy up there that he almost starts speaking in an old-fashioned way.
Honestly? He's not sure how he feels about the fact that the Maid of Honor is actually Elizabeth...but well, MC gives him such a glowing and supportive smile, and Jumin also seems to be so approving of him that he supposes he can choose not to feel insulted that he apparently is on the same level as a literal cat.
He also gets to pet the cat, which is kind of nice? Now that he's just 'visiting' the cat, anyway, and not expected to take care of it or have it rolling all over his expensive equipment.
For some reason, V is apparently too busy to stay the whole ceremony, but he does show up to take photos anyway. It does make sense that V would be the wedding photographer, though.
Yoosung still disapproves that V can't be bothered to stay the whole time. Surely he would have been the best man otherwise?!
The press outside is pretty scary, but those security guards keep them at bay, and hey! He recognizes one of them! The guard even waves at him.
There's more food than he's seen in his entire life at the reception. There's also honey buddha chip bags! SCORE!
When it comes time for wedding gifts, Jumin actually gives him a gift instead. That's confusing enough on its own, but when he opens it he gets even more confused. Pl-playbo-?!
Oh, no, it's something called "Expert Playboy", which seems to be some kind of a magazine about...how to be high society or something.
Well, the gesture is thoughtful! Even if Jumin is kind of blunt about the fact that he needs to study those to get a girlfriend. But then again...? It's also nice if he could get a girlfriend from it.
He's probably overly emotional because of how the day is, but he can't help crying a little in happiness when he sees how everyone is together again. It'd been pretty hard to believe things would turn out this way back before the MC arrived, or even during the crisis that followed, but...somehow everyone made it through, and even if it was kind of surprising to see a wedding so soon (but it's romantic~! Aa~) it gives him hope for the future.
707
He's happy for them. Honestly. Kinda weird that they rushed into it, but who was he to judge?
He's officially given up the right to judge anyone anymore. Ever. At all.
It's a hard decision to actually go to the wedding, since he's not feeling very joyful even then, but he's done enough of not being there for people who are important to him to last for one life time, he might as well make it for the wedding. Besides, he knows the RFA well enough to know that if he skips out, even with a good excuse, they'll all worry, and someone might actually physically come by and pick him up.
It might be V, which means his security won't even keep them out.
The wedding is on short notice, and he has no idea what to get for The Couple Who Has Everything, so he resolves to buy the first thing he sees for sale on the way to the wedding hall.
It's...a...cactus? He gets them a cactus. MC, angel that she is, takes it like it was actually a thoughtful gift. (hesnotjealoushesnotjealoushesnotjealous)
He gets to realize at least part of his dream: he bursts into the wedding hall a little late on purpose, shouting "I OBJECT TO THIS WEDDING!"
He mistimed it, so it's too early for that. That's awkward. But he rolls with it anyway. At the very least he can still rush the altar and take Elly away by the paw, even if she's not the bride.
Getting physically thrown out of the wedding hall while over the top shrieking is hashtag-worth-it.
He's still let into the reception afterward, because his friends are too good for him, honestly.
It's hard to believe that there's anything but darkness in his future, but seeing even Jumin Han lovestruck and married...maybe it's not totally impossible for things to turn around in a way he never expected, and end up with a happy ending for him, too?
Probably not.
She's radiant, glowing like an angel in the reception, and who is he kidding? He's absolutely jealous that she picked Jumin over him, but...hah. It wasn't really like there was ever an actual competition going on. That whole thing was all in his mind. And anyway, a person who abandoned his other half didn't deserve to find a different other half.
There's a zero percent chance that he's not going to find a way to prank Yoosung about those strange magazines Jumin gave him.
Jumin
The wedding needs to be perfect. No expense will be spared. He's done research, he knows what these kinds of weddings look like, and he's going to make sure it's the most absolutely extravagant and beautiful ceremony possible, because nothing less than that can hope to express his love for her. He wants nothing less than a wonderland that will earn those beautiful smiles from her at every turn.
He'd like for V to be best man, but his old friend is feeling too frail for that, and so while he promises to come and take pictures, he can't accept the honor of being best man.
It's briefly horrifying when MC suggests it should be Zen instead, but they ultimately agree on Yoosung. Perhaps it will give him motivation to further his studies and make a man of himself.
When Assistant Kang refuses to be the Maid of Honor, the MC goes into a giggling fit that ends with her on the floor, suggesting Elizabeth the 3rd do it. It's a thoroughly silly suggestion, but it brings her such glee that he can't deny it. It's probably for the best they didn't choose Zen for the best man.
The wedding isn't anywhere close to the perfect plan. Elizabeth wanders off from where she was meant to sit in the middle of the ceremony and Assistant Kang has to retrieve her before they can continue. Zen purposefully sneezes through their vows in an overwrought protest, and at one point Luciel breaks into the wedding hall and tries to kidnap Elizabeth. Zen almost certainly only drags the hacker out as an opportunity to get away from Elizabeth.
It's a horrifying train wreck.
Yet, he's never seen the MC look so happy before. His father speaks kindly to her, without any hint of his usual philandering nature.
She's the most beautiful creature he's ever laid eyes on.
When she smiles up at him, he forgets anyone else is around, and he needs no prompting to kiss his bride. Although, perhaps, in retrospect maybe he should have been more considerate and conscious of those around him when he does so. But then again...no.
From now on, the concerns of his wife supersede anything else. She will be the #1 in his life, from this point onward. Forever.
This is the life he wants for her: one where she is first in everything. One where she is given all that she could ever desire. One where she will never need to question whether she is loved.
Although he kept them out of the wedding hall itself, the press is waiting outside, of course. The heir in line of C&R and his new wife, alongside the current CEO of C&R would make news no matter what. And that's just fine with him. The world should see his beloved, and how beautiful she is. The world will, in fact, see her. He's sure of that. Never so much to overwhelm her, but enough to ensure no one would ever question that she is his one and only. That he may not deserve her, but she deserves everything.
The reception goes much better than the wedding, fortunately. Assistant Kang ends up with the bouquet, looking quite confused. Luciel behaves better in the reception hall than the wedding one, and even provides a gift.
It's...puzzling, but he seems genuinely proud of it.
His new wife is quite happy with it.
His wife.
This woman, the only one to understand him, the one to help him detangle all the threads in his mind, this woman is his wife.
In a way he already is, but a part of him quite literally wishes to climb onto a rooftop and shout out to the world that she is his wife now, his love, and the one he will spend his life with. No one else but her.
He thinks it's a rather frivolous thought, but V calls it romantic, and smiles in a more genuine and warm way than he's seen his old friend smile in a while.
He fails to convince V to get the eye surgery just yet, but...V does happily take photographs for the wedding, and seeing his friend taking photos again - enjoying himself once more - is a greater gift than he could ever ask for.
It's all quite wonderful, until Elizabeth the 3rd - apparently - hops into Zen's lap expecting attention. He isn't sure why she does this. Perhaps she was confused? Perhaps she simply wondered why the man continued making so much noise and sought to comfort or silence him? Whatever the case, the man has a public meltdown and ends up on the floor in a rather disgusting mess of snot and tears.
It's probably wrong to leave him there, yes.
Instead, he has Driver Kim pick up the man and return him back to his house.
His wife truly is kind, looking over the semi-conscious man and ensuring he has allergy medicine until he comes to.
It doesn't take particularly long overall, but he still cannot help but enjoy watching his new wife as she moves around the room and the bed, taking care of his most troublesome friend. Truly, he cannot measure the fortune and luck that he has stumbled into by meeting her, by loving her, and by her loving him in return. Nothing in his life can truly compare.
It seems he is visibly lovestruck, as he's caught out of his daze by the feel of her lips on his cheek, just before Zen stirs and wonders in confusion as to where he's ended up.
He imagines it's quite understandable even to Zen why he's in a hurry to wrap things up and return home with his new wife.
It is after all, their wedding night.
And he is quite finished with spending nights away from his love.

Caffeinated drinks, black dots and I should’ve stayed at home
Kanene’s Notes: Heya, heya awesome beans! Howz you are all doing?!
I am very glad that I finally finished this idea dfghjkderty. Shinsou was the second character that my mind screamed that I NEEDED to put in a cat cafe and kjhgtrertyu I think that one is a litol more funny and fluff than hurt/comfort, like the one with Midoriya, but worry not! In the end of the day one more kid is adopted :D
Warnings, fun facts, random things and stuff:
* That fanfic has Dadzawa and Yamadad and their relatonship can be seen as romantic, if you wish.
* This happens in the same universe as This Fanfic Here and you can also find it on AO3.
* There is passing out due exhaustion, sleep deprivation and cursing, but besides that i don’t think that there are any more warnings. This is more funny and fluff.
* This characters do not belongs to me. They all belongs to the amazing the manga/anime Boku no Hero.
* Something around 2.500 words. -w-)b.
* Sorry for any spelling, pontuation and grammar mistakes! Any advice is very very welcome!
* Tô com preguiça de postar a versão em português brasileiro aaaa! Oh!! If you have an idea for another scenario in this universe, hmu! I would love to hear it !!Thankys so much for reading this. Take care! Drink water! Eat well!! Pet a cute animal today!! And please sleep a bit, okie? <3 Byeioo!~
                         [~*~]
Shinsou blinked for what it felt the fifth time on the last minutes, which was probably the same amount a normal human being was supposed to blink but right now it just felt wrong. He rubbed his stinging eyes again, suppressing another yawn, firm on his purpose to concentrate his brain enough on the task of remembering his order, an almost impossible action by the way a growing headache involved his mind since he woke up.
The teenager focused again on the colorful, full of doodles of paws and whiskers menu, wishing for the first time in nearly two months attending the place that the drinks’ names were objective and direct, and not awful cat puns that made his braincells prefer to combust themselves instead of gathering the necessary information to remind him of the beverage he should ask.
 He squinted his eyes, dots appearing in the air. Hm. Definitely not a good sign. Maybe he should order two of the most caffeinated drinks instead of just one? He stared the menu again, frustration flaming on his veins as the words blurred and lost their signification, dancing together with the café’s lights.
 And it was only 7 AM.
Perhaps he should have stayed home, on the safety of his bed and the darkness of his room. He knew he should have cancelled his training.
 And yet, even thinking about that possibility made Hitoshi’s stomach be consumed by anxious tugs and knots, leaving an unpleasant taste of displeasure on his mouth. His trainings were one of the best moments on his entire week. They were events he would catch himself smiling as he thought about a newest move he learned or how his body seemed to recover quicker from the lessons. Or even how good, how right and free he felt on the gym, tired and sore, in the moment that his mentor nodded, proudness flicking in his eyes.
 … How amazing it felt to look at the mirror and see that same feeling reflected on his own gaze.
 He couldn’t deprive himself of that sensation, even if dealing with the painful consequences of his sleep deprivation and probably a lecture if his mentor caught him was the only other options.
 “Just one more. Just one more person and then I can ask for the strongest caffeinated shit here.” Yeah. This time those cups would be enough to make him endure at least his afternoon classes, he repeated to himself in mumbles. Two cups. Two cups and some minutes petting a cat and he would be ready. He would be ready for the world and society and the whole being a functional human being thing. And then he would get on the metro and nap until he gets home where he would have the real opportunity to properly sleep. Almost there. Just two cups. Two. Two cups.
 Gosh, he probably sounded like Midoriya, mumbling non stop like this. A mental image of the energetic teen looking as tired as Shinsou and drinking coffee as if his life depended on it popped on his brain, leading to a sudden urge to giggle manically take over the purple haired boy, and for the way some other customers eyed him warily he possible vocalized that impulse as well, limbs feeling at the same time too much heavy and too much light.
 He was so fucking tired.
 “Next one!” Loud. So loud. Shinsou obligated his body to step closer, opening his eyes enough to realize that dark spots still painted his vision. Huh. When did he close his eyes, again? “Good morning, little customer! How can I help you today?”
 Hitoshi stared at the figure in front of him, senses slow like he was under water, trying to understand the distorted sentences being directed at him, the dots growing and twinkling. Black dots were supposed to be able to do that?
 The world swayed a bit under his feet. He tried to move his lips but they didn’t obey him.
 “Little customer?” The voice sounded worried, and maybe that is what compelled the boy to take a deep breath, putting all his will in forming word after word when a nauseating wave of tiredness hit him, leading his conscience’s grip in reality weaken.
 “I am going to pass out.”
 And then the world got completely black, his senses disappearing together with a background screech.
 Well, fuck.
 […]
 Yamada had seen a lot of crazy, strange things while working at the cat café.
 As example that one shift when an adult of blue hair, strict pose and clear exhaustion dripping in waterfalls from his form was convinced that he was in a library and fiercely tried to return a book to them, doesn’t taking a ‘no’ as answer until the blond was left stupefied with a book of “The Secrets Hidden in The Bottom of The Ocean” on his arms.
 Or that occasion when a boy with a blank expression wearing Victorian clothes and completely surrounded by crows opened their door, looked from a side to another, stared at the deepest parts of Yamada’s soul, analyzing all his dark fears and secrets before slowly blink and say “Wrong store, my apologies” walking back and calmly ignoring the hissing and battle yowling of dozens of cats and crows.
 Or the day a green haired woman with a kind, calm aura just walked behind the counter completely unphazed by Hizashi and Aizawa’s unbelieved looks, made two healthy snacks, patted their cheeks saying ‘You two need to eat more, dears’ and then disappeared as if nothing had happened.
 However, none of those events ever prepared him for the moment which purple eyes would stare his in an unfocused state, not really looking at anything and a wobbly smirk – if he wasn’t accustomed with Shouta’s grin, he would easily call it ‘creepy’ – would paint his customer’s pale face, the silence ringing alarmingly on his ears.
 “Are you okay, little listener? Do you want to sit for a minute? You look extremely tired.”
 As the words came out of his lips, a spell seemed to break, the other’s face getting even paler, smile falling and eyes widening leaded his body to stumble forward instinctively, something on his guts screaming for him to get ready. A few other customers on the line grumbled in impatience, looking at their watch and protesting. Somewhere, in the deep part of his brain, Yamada wondered why those things only happened when Aizawa was out and no procedures for those kinds of situations were previously discussed on their contract.
 “Hey, guy,” a blonde teenager behind the paralyzed one said, tipping forward in an attempt to catch the other’s expression, his kimono following each move, “are you… here with us?”
 “Little listener?”
 A hesitant poke on his cheeks, two pair of eyes warily watching a third.
 His mouth finally moved.
 “I am going to pass out.” His voice was light, stitched together by certain. His legs trembled under his own weight, body collapsing.
 “You WHAT?” A terrified shriek mixed itself between Hizashi’s words, flying across the whole store.
 “Oh, shi-”
 His blonde client didn’t waste a second before holding the other, arms locking under his armpits in a strange kind of hug, knees weakening with the sudden, unexpected effort, the limp teenager not even flinching with the touch, laying there completely motionless.
 Hizashi blinked, gulping, adrenaline exploding on each one of his fibers, color slightly draining from his own face, a piece of his conscience wishing with all its strength for this to be only a dream. When his eyes opened, everything would be the same.
 He blinked, the deafening silence still crushing the room, one set of black eyes staring at him in confusion and growing panic, another set closed, heavy, dark circles under it.
 Right. He didn’t have time for this.
 So, he blinked again, finding himself in front of them both, pushing his feelings under a mask of a calm, an easy reassuring smile already slipping on his face, crouching to get the legs of his customer, catching the gaze the other and winking, “let’s get him on a more comfortable position, right?”
 A determined nod, quick, careful steps as they both laid the purple haired one on a small couch placed under some shelves, having to gently dislodge three sleeping cats, who hissed in irritation. The voice of Nemuri, attending the rest of the line filling the space and being acknowledged in the back of his mind, serving as a firm ground and helping his muscles to relax, even if just a little bit.
 Hizashi stared the young boy in front of him, looking somewhat peaceful, a bit of color having already returned to his face, soft snores coming out from him.
 … Hitoshi. That is his name, right? He wasn’t a new client, always coming at every fifteen days, always by morning and always caffeinated drinks that only Yamada - on his most delirious moments - ever thought in trying, quick to go to play with any feline who appeared in front of him. Although, he never stayed more than ten minutes, the quiets ‘bye’s he gave to the felines never failing to melt Yamada’s weak, bleeding heart.
 A childish voice pulled him right out of his thoughts.
 “Mom, is he dead?”
A snort escaped his lips before he could help it. Kids.
 “Sir?” The teenager shook a small device with a shiny screen in front of him, the logo of a new rock band he hadn’t a chance to listen to yet on the background “I found his phone, I think we should call his emergency contact…?”
 “Of course! Thank you, little helper!” He ruffles his hair, flashing a smile and thumbs up as his finger quickly clicked on the call button, listening, not trying to show his impatience as it ringed.
 “You’re late.” A tired voice answered him, and Hizashi felt his entire body relax completely, right before the surprise shook its frame, too much pieces clicking together in a puzzle he didn’t even know he was solving.
 “SHOU?”
 [~*~]
 “I am sorry.”
 “You will be writing a formal letter apologizing to Hizashi, Nemuri and to me, our classes will be cancelled for this week and, if I notice you didn’t recover properly on this free time, for the next week as well. I am not going to stand by and watch you running yourself to the ground, damaging your potential because you lack of some sense of self preservation, do I make myself clear?” Shinsou tried to not visibly flinch at his sensei’s words. He almost forgot how much intimidating Aizawa could be when totally serious. They stopped by the Cat Café’s door, the black eyes staring at him.
 “Yes, sir.” He answered, lowering his gaze. Shouta sighed, his worry stopping to come out as harsh and necessary words to materialize itself in the form of him patting the boy’s head, messing his hair for a few seconds before opening the door and getting into the establishment.
 “Good. Now come in, Hizashi has been worried and he won’t stop pestering me until he sees with his own eyes how you are.”
 Hitoshi didn’t had time to question how someone that he just met – if you consider passing out in front of him a proper meeting – could be worried about his well-being when, as the door clicked behind him, an excited screech filled the room, forging the realization that maybe that weird high sound before his faint wasn’t just the ring of his ears.
 “SHINSOU!!” And, in a blink of eyes, the blonde was in front of him, hands on his face, turning it from a side to another, up and downwards, “You look so much better with some color on your face! I am glad that you finally took some necessary rest, huh? Your eyeshadows even got lighter, which, phew, is such a relief! For a very terrifying moment there I almost thought you would be as bad as this guy right here.” Yamada locked his arms around Aizawa’s shoulder, using the time to take a breather and smile, gladly giving the younger some time to process the flow of words thrown at him. “You gave us both quite a scare, kiddo.”
 “I am deeply sorry for inconveniencing you and interrupting your work, Yamada-san.” He bowed, a slight embarrassed blush dusting his cheeks.
 “Just please don’t do that again and you will be fine, little customer.” Hizashi then squinted his eyes on his direction as Hioshi brought himself back to his previous position, shoulders tense and straightened back, much different from his previous more slouched pose. Yamada’s eyes got a few inches wider. “You gave him The Talk!” He turned himself to Shouta, his excited sentence, loud enough to probably making his friend deaf, if the black haired adult wasn’t already used with the other’s attics, previously covering his ears before the outburst.
 His response was a grunt, Aizawa dislodging himself from his touch with scoff and half heartedly mumbles, ignoring the confusion on his pupil’s gaze. “Maybe he looks like that because of your total disregarding of personal space.”
 “Don’t worry,” Hizashi put his hand at the side of his mouth, as if he was confiding Shinsou’s a secret. “He only does that because he is worried about you, too. Don’t let yourself to be fooled by his grumpy façade. He is a mother hen at heart.”
 “I am going to lock you outside and give all your CD’s to the kittens a their new toys.” The other threatened, going behind the balcony and turning the coffee machines on, preparing the store to open. The few cats who were already wandering around the place yowled and meowed in despair, as if the blonde hadn’t feed them fifteen minutes ago and they were starving under the hands of such unloving and uncaring creature. Aizawa crouched and distributed the treats hidden on his pockets for everyone of them, nevertheless. His friend used the distraction to mouth a ‘see?’ at the younger’s direction, eliciting a snicker from him, his body language more relaxed.
 “Feel free to do whatever,” Aizawa proclaimed, not staring at the boy, who felt a flower of warmth blossom on his chest. “Just be sure that all your homework is completed by lunch time or the moment you decide to go. Sushi is probably napping now, but when she wakes up, I will warn you.”
 “But first,” Hizashi clapped, capturing the attention as he walked with a dance on his step to the bakeries, taking two plate on his way. “breakfast! For you both. And that means something substantial and not just a cup of coffee.”
 Shinsou startled from the table he decided to place himself, shaking his head. “Yamada-san, it’s okay, you don’t need to-”
 “Nonsense, nonsense! I want to. Eating breakfast alone is just sooo boring, you know?” Hizashi spun on the place, almost throwing the muffins and breads around as Ochaco used his distraction to attack his shoelaces. “Uravity, stop, I need those.”
“Her name isn’t Uravity.” Shouta appeared again, bringing drinks and yawning, his focus changed to the boy’s. “Better give up. I’ve been fighting against him for years now.”
 “Also, her name is Ochaco Uravity Fluffy Second and you just refuse to call her that because you’re just jealous of how much genius I am.”
 “I refuse to call her that because I care for her sanity.”
 “Lies, lies.”
 Hitoshi snorted, hiding his smirk behind his hand. “I prefer his name better, sensei.”
 Aizawa watched them high five between the cheers of the blonde with an unimpressed expression. “Cheeky brat.”
 “You’re just grumpy because he has a good taste. Friendship ended with Shouta, now Shinsou is my new best friend.”
"I am truly devasted." Aizawa deadpanned, taking a long sip of his beverage, hiding his smirk as Shinsou snorted, Yamada's dramatic wailing in the background.
 And, as the playful bickering engulfed them between the warm food and purrs, Hitoshi decided that maybe losing his weekly training wasn’t so bad if that was what waited for him.

Itse me, shy!
Holy FUCK, I thought the last chapter was intense but this one, whoo boy! The things youve dropped are awesome omg! (Sorry anyone who reads this who hasn't checked out the newest chapter of NQM, massive spoilers ahead!)
Them being immortals makes so much sense! Of course they can be revived, they can't die! And I dont know why but it also makes sense that Ze has never seen Chilled die before. Does that mean they don't die of age either? Will they just keep ageing?
It must be terrifying to wake up, knowing you have to be dead but being alive, I am so glad all of them found each other and support each other. Heck yeah to Steven squared and Chilled!
I love that Chilled and Ze have been friends for so long, Chilled thinks he's immortal and he tells Ze pretty much immediately. Like, the mugging happened in college and the party did too, so I assume it was pretty quick after. And Ze too, just boom. It's about the trust, man.
I also enjoy the portrayal of Chilleds touchiness, physical closeness between friends always has me SO weak. Them just casually both going to Zes? Finally, some good fucking food.
And Aphex' joy upon seeing Ze happy (which is so wholesome still btw) makes even more sense if you put in context how long he's known Ze and how close all three must have gotten in a "Us against the world" way. Aphex is a true friend, the realest of bros.
Each one's motivations are so incredibly human, I think Toasts story is moving and it must have been awful to lie all the time, I am glad he can now live his truth (almost said he can now live freely but uh... Not really lmao)
Shubble and Platy just being so wholesome is 😭😭 i love them so much!
I see, Cheesy is baby boy baby and must be protected. Wouldn't he see that his fear is unjustified, considering the others died way more often than him and they always come back?
Walking into a bear trap must hurt so much, I am surprised Ze didn't scream tbh
I adore the way you introduced Dumbdog, genius. I am so impressed, I didn't expect this at all! The presentation, the cut off, the suspense? P e r f e c t i o n
So Dumbdog was the mystery person you wanted to introduce, good to know! It's nine people we know of then, plus however many people are trying to keep them there. It has to be at least two (unknown gender tho) because they did say we!
Did Tays worst nightmare come true and they are experiments? Would that mean that the wolf attacks are planned? It would be hilarious if they aren't ngl, like jesus Ze still runs into them for no reason lmao
Dumbdog isn't part of their group it seems like, but where did he come from? Who is he? What role is he? Can he even have a role?
So many questions have opened up! I don't need sleep, I need answers xD
Lastly, I just wanna mention how I think it's so funny how Ze constantly gets found and rescued, modern princess peach right here, now go support your Mario!
Hope you're having an awesome day!
Hey Shy! Thank you once again for reading and asking, it always makes me happy to see an ask from you! I’m glad you liked that chapter <3
This chapter was so much fun to write even if it stressed me out a little because of making sure I get across the logic and backstories well :D For aging, I would imagine its greatly reduced as they seem to regenerate at an accelerated speed rather than being impervious to damage, so for aging I think it would make the most sense that physically aging would be caveated by the idea that any sort of degeneration of their body wouldn’t be (as) drastic like it would for anyone else. But beyond that I’m only mortal and can only imagine how terrifying it must be!
I love writing friendships with casual intimacy and trust, it feels all cosy. And like in games, even when Ze and Chilled suspect and betray eachother, it never lasts too long! I’m glad you enjoy how I’ve portrayed them and Aphex too, obviously I’ve taken their online personalities into the characters in the story and I feel like what makes so much of their characters are the dynamics they have with eachother. I think having the backstory for them adds some more sadness and angst and happiness too at the earlier chapter with their adventure? 
Trying to think about the character’s motivations and individual fears was nice because I think most people would have common thoughts about being immortal but different specifics would really stick with different people based on their personalities and experiences! I think for Cheesy the idea is that maybe he’ll get complacent, or that he’s been granted something that might one day be ripped from him, as no one really knows how or why they can come back to life. People generally change a lot more when they’re younger (adolesence), and Cheesy being the closest to that experience must’ve seen his peers changing more than he did, and it’s a reminder of how quick mortality can be maybe
Numbness and body adrenaline maybe helped Ze in the not-screaming department but yes, he’s definitely in a lot of pain aaaa
Thank you so much!! <3 I love dumbdog and thought that it made a lot of sense for him to be a hybrid given his online persona! He’s also a comfy streamer so maybe I had some bias in wanting to include him haha
The people trying to keep them here is definitely more than one, which is like the base game (more than blackout DLC which i miss a lot) but I’m glad you noticed the ‘we’!! I think that Tay’s personal fears about being experimented on also give her a lot more reason to be paranoid and reckless, not justifying what she did in the last chapter but! 
Dumbdog is very much a mystery and I look forward to answering those questions about him, I hope you enjoy where I go with it!! Thank you so much for engaging with it because I do have a fear that the direction I take the story won’t be where people want it to go, but I’m having fun doing it still :D
Ze’s a strong independent damsel in distress who does need a man :’)
Please get some sleep (even though I’m not replying straight away and you probably already did) and I hope you have a good day!!

The mercs with a s/o who absolutely ADORES reptiles? Like s/o can always be found with a lizard in their hands or pocket, or a snake across their shoulders(possibly baby talking said animal). At a tropical base "Babe! Look what I found!" The merc turns around to see s/o standing there with a big goofy grin and arms full of monitor lizard!
Scout-
This boi is both terrified and grossed out by reptiles. Their scales and little black beady eyes trigger his fight or flight response
Despite his fear of reptiles, he actually finds it cute when you baby talk them or carry them around. Might come around to reptiles because of you
He’s scared to come near you when you’re holding the giant lizard. But some soft coaxing may convince him to come closer and hold the lizard
Soldier-
He doesn’t have much of an opinion of reptiles. He kinda prefers mammals and soft fur like that of his precious raccoons
Finds it extremely cute that you baby talk them and carry them around. He does the same exact thing with his raccoons! You must really love them!
Stares in awe at the lizard in your arms. Asks if he can hold it too and you place the lizard in his arms. He carries it around everywhere and pets it
Pyro-
Aaaa reptiles are so adorable!! They love all kinds of animals so it’s not very surprising that they love and adore reptiles too
Squeals every time they catch you carrying one or baby talking a reptile. They baby talk them right along side you and try to carry some around
They’re gonna start crying and babbling happily when they see you holding the lizard. Please let them hold the scaly baby too
Demo-
Surprisingly, he actually really likes reptiles. Most the ones with crazy colors or awesome and/or dangerous abilities  
Chuckles and grins whenever he sees a reptile poking out of your pocket or sees you baby talking them. Will baby talk the little baby reptiles
Breaks out laughing when he sees you standing there with the lizard. Tells you to stay like that so he can find a camera and take a picture
Heavy-
He’s kinda wary of reptiles since he’s seen what kind of danger they’re capable of inflicting. Though he doesn’t hate them or love them
Can’t help but smile when there is a reptile in your pocket or in your hands. Somehow, you made them look even more endearing
Gets the biggest smile on his face when you show him the lizard. Scratches the top of the lizard’s head and kisses your forehead
Engineer-
Growing up in Texas, he’s seen a couple of reptiles and they weren’t too nice. So he’s also a little cautious when it comes to reptiles
Panics a little at first when he sees you holding the reptiles but chills out when he realizes just how freaking adorable you and the reptile are
Runs up to you and asks if the lizard is dangerous. When you reassure him, he lets out a sigh of relief and smiles down at the cute lizard
Medic-
He’s fascinated with reptiles from a scientific standpoint. They have such amazing abilities but he does have to admit that some of them are cute
Instantly reminded of his birds when you carry them around and baby talk them. Can’t help but baby talk them and perch some on his shoulder
Smiles when he sees you holding the lizard. The sight is so unbelievably adorable. Strokes the lizard’s back and comments on its cuteness
Sniper-
Words can’t even begin to describe how much he loves and adores reptiles! He just wants to adopt all the reptiles in the world!!
Almost cries and gushes about how cute you and the reptiles you are when he sees you holding them. Def will carry some in his pockets
His heart swells at the sight. Immediately asks to hold the lizard and gives it plenty of head kisses. Asks you if you both can adopt the lizard
Spy-
Finds reptiles incredibly gross and creepy. Or so he says. In reality, he actually finds them incredibly cute and beautiful
Cringes and tells you to take such filthy animals out of your pockets. Though he can’t help but secretly baby talk tiny reptiles
Doesn’t even bother pretending anymore. Smiles and pets the lizard while talking about how beautiful and sweet it looks in your arms
Miss Pauling-
She doesn’t have much of an opinion of lizards since she’s never given them much thought. Thinks a lot of them are very beautiful though
Smiles and gushes about how cute and small they are in your pockets. Giggles every time she sees you baby talking one of them
Is amused and intrigued by the lizard in your arms. Hesitantly asks to hold it and gazes down at it with a smile. Pets it almost like a cat

“Aren’t you missing something?” Chanyeol entered the room questioning me. I was sitting on the sofa playing Sims on my laptop with TV on as a background.
“Hmm…” I looked around myself. “Not really.” I turned at Chanyeol.
“You left your phone on the toilette again.” Ha waved with it.
“Oh, I was wondering where it was.” I remembered I hadn’t seen it in a while.
“So why didn’t you try to find it?” He raised an eyebrow.
“I guess I just figured it would show up somewhere eventually…Obviously, I was right.” I put the laptop aside.
“Or you were just too lazy to look for it.” He smirked while nagging me.
“Yeah, well, that too, I suppose.” I shrugged. “Gimme.” I lifted my hands up.
“You’re welcome, by the way.” He lightly threw it at me. The second it landed in my hands it started ringing and vibrating.
“Aaaa…” I was screaming because it scared me.
“Aaa…” Chanyeol jumped a little and screamed back. “Why are you screaming?! You startled me!” He grabbed his chest, his eyes wide open.
“It’s just started ringing out of nowhere when it landed.” I explained with pitched voice.
“That’s what phones do. They play a tune when someone’s calling you.” He stared at me like I’m complete idiot. When did we exchange the roles in this household? I’m supposed to be the sarcastic annoyed smartass and he’s the dumbass. Not the other way around. “Are you planning to pick up?” He asked after few seconds of no action with the phone loudly ringing.
“Yeah, right. Good point.” I waved my index finger realizing it still hasn’t stopped. I stood up and headed to my room. “Yo, wassup?” I picked up the call.
“Hey, the love of your life speaking.” A cheerful voice greeted me.
“Hi, love of my life. Let’s break up.” I rolled my eyes and crawled on to the bed.
“Ouch.” He giggled. “Anyway, I just wanted to check up on you since you haven’t showed up for quite some time. Should I come to visit you and your cute sis to make sure you haven’t died or grown roots to the couch?” He said with a playful voice.
“Oh god, Hobs. Could you please stop calling my sister cute? She’s not cute, definitely not after what she did to me, and she has a boyfriend, remember?” I complained.
“That weirdo can hardly be called boyfriend. Who the fuck talks to the trees anyway?”
“I know, right? But tough luck, mate, she doesn’t live with me anymore so no more flirting for you when you come over.” I chuckled.
“Tsch.” He affected. “Soo…Should I come live with you now that you live alone?” He joked.
“First of all, who said I live alone and secondly, you wish.” I grinned to myself.
“Wait, so there is a new cutie living with you?” He asked excited.
“If you consider a grown ass man a cutie, then yes. Although some cute quiet introverted girl would be like winning jackpot right now. Cos my new “roomie” is annoying more than you. He’s always smiling and laughing and doing shit and whatnot.” I confided in him. When I think about it, since Chanyeol moved in I haven’t spoken with anyone about all this.
“Whoa, you live with a guy now? How did that happen?” He was fazed.
“Well, yeah, but it’s kind of a long story so I’ll save it for another time. Let’s just say my sister is a bitch.” I murmured.
“Is that the reason you haven’t showed up for so long?” He asked concerned.
“Kinda, because he always wants to do stuff and makes me do it with him and then I’m exhausted to even breathe. Not that I have time to catch a breath with him always having energy to do something.” I continued my complaints.
“What?! Is he harassing you? Should I come beat some sense into him?” He suddenly turned completely serious.
“What?! Hobi, no! He’s not harassing me.” I quickly corrected him. “I don’t think he’s even capable of something like that. He has mind as innocent as a five years old. He’s a really, really big puppy in a human body.” All of a sudden I was defending Chanyeol. Chanyeol actually protects me a lot when it comes down to it. It’s like having a human bumper around me.
“…if you say so. But if he dares to so much as lay a finger on you I’m calling Yoongi to make him disappear.” He said in a deep voice.
“Geez, Hobi, you are crazy.” I chuckled.
“I’m not joking, Yumi. One word and he’s gone.” He was dead serious. I gulped down.
“Okay.” I peeped.
“I won’t let anyone harm my precious little girl.” He said in cutesy style this time.
“Please, never call me that again.” I was disgusted. He just giggled.
“Anyways, I gotta go, Jimin needs something and is bothering me with it for over five minutes now.”
“Hey!” Jimin exclaimed in the background and then there were sounds of a fight.
“You should come over soon or I’ll retrieve you at your place and drag you here myself, you hear me?”
“Yes, boss.”
“Good, I’m your only hope at having a social life anyway.” He was definitely smirking. “I’m your hope. I’m ��� your – hope.” He repeated. “Feels right on the tongue, doesn’t it? Maybe I’ll use that.” I laughed at his contemplation.
“Alright, you do that, Jung Hope, and I’m gonna try to plant roots to the couch in the meantime.”
“You should come here then if you have time to do nothing.” He nagged me.
“No thanks. I’m happy to not do something at least for a day. Let me have it.” I responded exhausted.
“Yeah, okay. See you soon though.”
“Yep, bye.” I hung up.
“Yumi.” Chanyeol knocked on the door as soon as I finished the call.
“What?” He opened the door and peeked inside.
“Put on some long pants and sturdy shoes.” He gave me instructions without any explanation.
“Why would I do that?” I looked at him suspiciously.
“We’re going hiking.” He stated as if it wasn’t negotiable.
“Uhm, we’re not?” I stared at him in disagreement.
“Are we really gonna have this discussion even though we both know I’ll eventually convince you to go with me?” He raised eyebrows at me. I opened my mouth in affect and frowned at him.
“You…you piece of shit! That’s not true!” I slapped the mattress with both hands.
“Are you sure? Should I start giving the examples?” His dimple showed up.
“Argh, fine, I get it. I’m leaving my bed, see?” I dramatically slid off the bed ending up lying on the floor. Chanyeol just shook his head and chuckled at me.
“You’re crazy.”
“As if you aren’t. Now get out and let me get ready!” I commanded him from the floor. He giggled at my lazy ass and closed the door behind him.
 “I thought you said hiking not trying to climb a stairway to heaven.” I was looking up a steep hill incapable to see the top.
“It’s not as bad as it looks like. And you wouldn’t be allowed to enter heaven anyway.” He grinned at me.
“Well, aren’t you a savage bastard today?” I fakely smiled at him.
“I learnt from the best.” He kept grinning.
“Let’s just get this over and done with so I can get back to my bed.” I took first steps up the path entering the forest.
We walked alongside each other rather quietly only occasionally talking. After a moment of silence I turned at Chanyeol. He was looking around, taking in the nature with a light smile on his face. He’s really enjoying this, isn’t he? Just appreciating the moment and the beauty of the world with such easiness. I want to know how he does it. He seems so unbothered by anything.
“What?” He suddenly turned at me.
“What what?” I immediately looked away playing dumb.
“You were staring at me.” He chuckled.
“Pf, no, I wasn’t. I was just…looking at the trees behind you.” I came up with a poor excuse. “Don’t be so full of yourself.” I rolled my eyes.
“If you say so.” He cackled. His attitude got me thinking. He seems so confident around me lately like he knows something I don’t. Like he’s sure of his position, knows where he stands.
“Do you think I have a soft spot for you?” I asked curious referring to what Jongin has said.
“And don’t you?” He answered with a question looking at me like it was obvious. Is it because he thinks I’ll let him go away with anything? Because that’s not true.
“No, why would I?” I frowned at him and shot a question back at him as well.
“I don’t know, you tell me.” He shrugged with mirth. This is not going anywhere. He’s just turning it around at me, like he’s trying to push me to say something. I don’t know what he expects but I’m not gonna play this game.
“…when are we gonna reach the top?” I changed the subject after becoming displeased with the topic. “We’ve been walking for ages.” I complained out of breath.
“It hasn’t even been an hour yet. Instead of focusing on the destination why don’t you try to relish the journey?” What kind of Socrates bullcrap is this?
“I don’t know about you but insect, spiders and other disgusting and terrifying creatures along with dirt and hill climbing aren’t exactly my kind of jam.” What am I even doing here? I could be taking a nap right now, but nah, I have to go everywhere he does like I’m on the leash. Oh my god, did I become the dog?!
“So take in the trees, beautiful plants and fresh air. The calming sound of the nature and being away from the city. Don’t look for the negative side of things all the time.” He calmly argued with me.
“Geez, you’re starting to sound like Hyojong. I hope you haven’t been spending time with him as well since you like to gossip with my sister about me so much.” I murmured.
“That was one time.” He defended himself. I stopped in my tracks and raised my brows at him. He stopped few steps ahead as well and turned at me. “Okay, maybe twice.” I started walking again after his confession.
“Seems like neither of us would be admitted in to the heaven.” I passed him with my head high.
“You…” Chanyeol was about to say something when my phone started ringing. I quickly took it out surprised to even have a signal here.
“Mom?” I picked it up not expecting her to be the one calling.
“Hi, baby. How are you? How’s school? Is everything okay?” Awesome timing to make a parental call, mom. Chanyeol observed my confused face.
“I’m fine. Everything is fine.” I replied shortly.
“Are you sure? You never even call anymore.” She nagged me.
“Yes, mom, I’m sure.” I rolled my eyes and motioned to Chanyeol to start walking again because this’s gonna take a while.
“Okay then. MinMin was here yesterday. She brought that sweet boy Hyojong with her as well. They are so cute together, I can’t wait for the grandkids. I bet they are going to be just as lovely as their parents, don’t you think?” She was basically melting into the microphone.
“Sure, ma, the loveliest.” I responded curtly, rolling my eyes for like tenth time in a past minute.
“You should come over soon. Your dad and I would really love to see you.” Back to the nagging. “You haven’t visited your poor old parents for so long. Minha comes over every now and then but you won’t show up. How long has it been, huh?”
“I don’t know, ma.” I sighed.
“See? You don’t even remember. That’s how long you haven’t been here. Make sure to show up soon.” Why is she so aggressive about it?
“Yes, mom, will do.”
“And bring along your boyfriend. We’d like to meet him as well.” I’m sure she was an army general in her previous life.
“Huh? What are you talking about? I don’t have a boyfriend.” I was perplexed.
“No need to keep it a secret, Mimi. Minha has already told us you have a new boy.” Oh, Minha told you? Well, Minha is dead to me more than she was before. “She said he’s a really charming and warmhearted. Your dad and I are so happy that you are finally giving a chance to love again. And if he is as nice as Minha says that makes us even more happy and proud.” Oh God, this is going in a direction of an emotional lecture with emphasizing the importance of human connections.
“Mom.” I tried to put a stop to her.
“Is he treating you well?” She tried to get more information out of me.
“Mom!” I raised my voice.
“Oh sorry, honey. What are you doing anyway? I hope I didn’t interrupted you at something important.” A little too late to ask that, don’t you think?
“No, ma. It’s okay.” I answered exhausted thinking about the rest of the mountain in front of me.
“Okay, okay. See you soon then. And don’t forget to take the boy with you.” I heaved a frustrated sigh. “Bye, baby. I love you.”
“Love you, too.” I hung up. “Jesus Christ, I’m barely breathing and she has to call in the middle of the mountain.” I grumbled.
“So…we’re dating, huh?” Chanyeol chuckled.
“You heard that?” I squeaked.
“Yep, all of it. All about how awesome I am.” He mocked me.
“You know what? Screw it, I’m just gonna hang myself on one of these trees right here right now.” I said out of frustration.
“Don’t worry about it. It’s just moms being moms.” He brushed it off.
“But still…argh.” I let out a fed up shriek. And me being me I tripped over something and staggered.
“Careful!” Chanyeol reflexively caught my arm and steadied me, then immediately let go of me. “Sorry, but I had…” He started apologizing.
“It’s okay. Thank you.” I cut him off.
“Are you sure you are alright?” He looked at me doubtfully.
“Yes, it didn’t hurt and everything is fine. Satisfied?” I said annoyed. I know he’s just trying to be nice but I feel like I am out of glass or something.
“Yeah, we’re almost at the top so let’s go.”                                                                
“Finally!” I exclaimed after we left the forest and entered a clearing on top. I looked around and saw few cars parked on the other side of the meadow. “Are you shitting me?” I turned around at Chanyeol, full of anger. “Why the fuck did we spend hours going through that forest full of nasty stuff when we could have easily just drive all the way up here?!” I yelled at him.
“That wouldn’t be fun. Moreover, hiking has health benefits opposed to driving.” He smiled innocently.
“My malfunctioning lungs and throbbing muscles say otherwise.” I grumbled.
“And you got to experience the nature in its full beauty.” He gave another reason ignoring my complaints.
“I could’ve done that through the car window as well without getting attacked by bloodthirsty flying little scumbags.” I deflected.
“This way we got to spend some quality time together.” He said happily.
“We could have done that in a comfort of our living room. Not to mention that I’ve never asked to spend time with you.” I growled.
“You have an answer to anything, don’t you?” He gave me a sidesmile.
“Of course I do! I’ve been climbing a fucking mountain for hours, torturing my body just to find out I could have just call an Uber to get here!” I raised my voice again.
“Well, you could have done that but believe me, you’ll enjoy the view from up here way more after you made an effort to get here.” He tried to persuade me.
“Let’s find out then!” I dramatically raised my hands and turned around. I was gonna go see that impressive view he praised so much but the picture in front of me stabbed me right in the gut stopping me from going anywhere. “Please tell me I’m hallucinating.” I said hopelessly. What have I done so wrong in my previous life?
“Cha-nyeo-laaah!!” Baekhyun came running towards us, jumping at Chanyeol while Jongdae was waving at us like a helicopter from a parking lot with Sehun taking something out of the car. I regarded Chanyeol with a dead-stare.
“Surprise?” He made jazz hands and grinned at me with Baekhyun clasped to him like a koala.
“You have no idea how much I hate you.” I starred daggers at him. I’m living out my nightmares.
“Don’t be so mean, Mimi.” Baekhyun let go of Chanyeol and pouted at me.
“What are you doing here anyway?” I asked Baekhyun, full of frustration. “And don’t call me that.”
“We’re having picnic, of course. We talked about it in the groupchat.” Baekhyun cheerfully smiled. My gaze slid to Chanyeol.
“What? It’s not my fault you turned off the notifications and don’t read it.” He defensively lifted his hands. The fucker exploited the fact and used it against me to get me here on foot!
“You all wouldn’t shut up for five minutes, of course I did turn it off.” Maybe I should have left the chat altogether. But they would definitely add me back again.
“Stop arguing, poopheads. Let’s go set up the feast.” Baekhyun happily skipped on the grass back to the car. I took a deep breath and left Chanyeol alone, going to a wooden platform to take a look. I climbed up the stairs, great, more climbing, two storeys high, hyperventilating at the top.
“Sweet Jesus.” I mumbled between the breaths. I’m too old for this much physical activity in one day. I straightened up and supported myself on the rails. Welp, this is actually a truly nice view. Not bad at all. I scanned the shape of the country below.
“Breathtaking, right?” Chanyeol said from behind me. I flinched a little but didn’t turn around to look at him.
“Quite literally thanks to the stairs.” I replied. He snickered and moved next to me. Out of nowhere a sound of a camera shutter clicked. “What the…” I looked beside me. Chanyeol’s phone was aimed at me and the shutter clicked again. “What do you think you’re doing?” I said menacingly. He put away the phone and looked away from me.
“Sorry, you just looked so enticing. I couldn’t help it.” He said embarrassed, his cheeks and ears catching a red shade.
“…oh…aha…okay…yeah…cool…” I couldn’t come up with a proper response and looked away from him embarrassed as well.
“We should probably…” Chanyeol began to speak after an awkward silence.
“Yeah, totally.” I replied knowing what he wants to say since both of us wanted to escape this situation.
“They are probably waiting for us.” Chanyeol motioned in a direction of the others.
“Definitely. Baekhyun can’t even breathe without you. So we should go.” I agreed.
“Yeah, let’s go.” Chanyeol smiled a little and we left the platform.

Man I had a very weird dream that was half nightmare and half good? Luckily I was able to semi lucid dream myself out of the nightmare bit. Literally just remembered it was my birthday and was like "NOT TODAY BITCHES" *snaps wide awake and hella confused"
Anyway! The dream!
It was one of those ones where I have a framing device before the actual dream? Like often I'm me and I walk into a bookstore and I read a book that has the plot of the actual dream. Or sometimes i even dream I'm going to bed and then dreaming??
The framing device this time was like FLASHBACK NIGHTMARE DEATH. For some season I was at some sort of summer camp run by my mum?? I mean summer camps don't even exist in my country! I think it was just cos (for some reason) it was set in my grandma's house instead, and we used to drive out and stay with her for a few weeks in the summer. Anyway I was at my grandma's house but my abusive mum was there instead and also so was 30 or so stranger kids who were apparently camp students or whatever. And I was stuck with my abusive mum for precisely one month and also got bullied by everyone and she would support it all and just AAAA
And for some reason there was a recurring element of the top floor of the house being under construction forever. It was just a bunch of support beams for a floor, and then in the middle was All My Valuable Things In Life. Somehow I had to shimmy across these beams that might not even support my weight, and get over my fear of heights, and I was convinced when I made it to the treasure chest in the middle I would get back every part of my psyche that this woman broke during my childhood. Also my cat.
But then weirdly it turned into another dream and it didn't even segue very well. Just one second I'm on the rafters and as soon as I'm just about to reach the treasure chest I'm now somebody else in a different dream.
Now it was some sort of pilot episode for a TV show? I was the cliche shonen hero and then I had some younger sidekick who was far wiser than me and played straight man to my zany antics. Also we were kinda in ancient China but an anachronistic steampink version or something?
The plot started off when we were in a bookstore and I bought some sort of super legendary book? There was a sword sheath attached to a book like a bookmark, and then the chosen one could draw it out and a giant bfs would come out, made of words. It was awesome!
And the book itself was like an origin story of the original hero who first had this sword, and a manual on how to use it. But it was all in another language so we were stumped. This led to THE FUNNIEST PART OF THE DREAM
"Oh yeah there was an English copy over there. Cheaper too. but it didn't have a cool sword in it."
And while our backs were turned, a villain had grabbed that other book and run off with it, so now we're stuck with this.
And then it was just like slice of life villain of the week stuff as we tried to find the guy who took the translated book, and tried to learn how to use the sword along the way. And also wondered why we were talking English in China anyway???
I just recall there were a lot of jokes about the hero character not taking their destiny seriously, and using the sword as a fishing rod and etc. Or one moment where it was like "hey where's the sword??" "Oh that cat has it." *just watches as it runs away* They knew my one weakness: cute aminals!!
But generally it was just fun and funny and charming and kinda like Asterix and Obelix? It was great.
BUT THEN WE SUDDENLY WENT BACK TO THE FRAMING DEVJCE DREAM
And it was me trying to run away and mum trying to force me into staying. And there was some sort of weird party with a hundred faceless people? I guess they represented all the family members I was never even able to meet and now will never get to know. I think I was scanning the crowd in fear that Nana would be among them.. Like I know she was the only one who loved me back then but would she hate who I'd grown up to be? Also for some reason all the tablecloths were all the unused fabric from my various failed sewing projects over the years, as if to taunt me :<
So mum tried to shame me in front of this faceless terrifying crowd of All The People Ever. She was all 'oh I'm so in pain, my terrible disobedient daughter is abusing me by leaving, and telling these horrible horrible lies'. And everyone just bought it and wouldn't listen to me explaining and it was just terrifying! I or member I said something like "you're propping up this cardboard version of me to make yourself look right" which was kind of a cool line
And then what really stabbed me in my heart is that suddenly the sidekick kid from the other dream was sitting there at the table, and was like 'I thought you were a good person, how could you do this'.
:<
I felt as betrayed as if one of my real friends had said this, I wasn't lucid enough in the dream to realise they were a fictional character who was just saying my own insecurities out loud.
So I was crying and desperately trying to defend myself to this kid. Not just because I didn't want to lose a friend, but because of this HUGE SPIKE OF FEAR that this kid might get mistreated by their own parents if they're being indoctrinated into this shit. They were like 'but you have to listen to your mum no matter what' and I could feel that the dream was ending so I was desperately trying to get the words out through my tears. "No! Kid! If an adult hurts you, you have to go to a policeman! No matter who it is!"
Which in retrospect was shitty advice cos the only time police ever got involved with my mum, they all agreed that I was just lying and wasting their time and just left without helping at all. Its child services, school counsellors and homeless shelters for abused teens that actually helped me escape. But I was panicking in the dream and couldn't think of the right words. *sigh*
I hope dream kid is okay and they got to reincarnate in a better dream or something. I'd hate to think that the things I imagine stop existing when I wake up. I mean on one hand that's terrifying cos it means all my nightmares are still there waiting for me! Maybe this mindset is why I get recurring ones so often?? But I mean its worth it to know all the rare nice characters I met in my dreams are all off somewhere together living their lives. They need a reward for being kind to me in a cold uncaring brain universe of anxious shit!

OKAY WOW I just started reading a lets play of Tales of Graces and HOLY SHIT I love Sophia! I think I was amoung the majority of people who got umm.. Really Put Off by her character design prior to actually learning more about the game. Cos seriously, prelease stuff was like a fuckin minefield of ‘loli’ trope red flags, it looked like she was gonna somehow be pushed into a romance route with the protagonist despite being 14. And her design is just kinda boring and doesnt really say anything about her ACTUAL plot role and personality which were HOLY SHIT so unexpected and amazing and life affirming and jesus christ she is already my favourite tales character in all of history and I’m barely two hours into the damn game!! seriously I had to go look up spoils just to be ABSOLUTELY SURE I wasnt gonna be surprised with creepy fanservice of a young child, like in some of the older goddamn games in this series, and instead i found FUCKING AMAZING EVERYTHING FOREVER and like.. ACTIVE SUBVERSION OF LOLI TROPES but lol i cant really talk about it without kinda spoilering?? So UMM YEAH rest of my thoughts under the cut:
okay seriously its LITERALLY THE OPPOSITE OF WHAT WE ALL EXPECTED, HOLY FUCK nobody had ANY CLUE before the game came out that she’d be introduced as the twice-your-age figure to the protagonist instead of the other way around! getting to play a flashback prologue of everyone as kids was a really unique awesome feature that I wish we could get in other tales games its SO COOL to see the design and personality changes for everyone between their flashback selves and the ones you actually play as later on plus its a playable flashback! very short section of getting to see the kiddos actually have unique battle animations even! also it is REALLY EMOTIONALLY DESTRUCTIVE HOLY SHIT it explains everything about everyone’s personality forever why did these poor children have to suffer AAAAA
so umm yeah ANYWAY BACK ON TOPIC Sophie is introduced as this mysterious older teen while everyone is tiny babies, and takes on a kind of simultaneous big sis lil sis role cos of her amnesia and unfamiliarity with the world and like THANK YOU we dont get any weird fetishization of that as a concept! (look up the ‘born sexy yesterday’ trope for how this kind of plot tends to go down... yikes...) And like, even tho she’s comically oblivious about basic emotion concepts and stuff, she’s also A MASSIVE BADASS who’d have thought that such a cliche pinky pretty loli design would have a stoic badass superweapon personality??? THANK YOU. I feel so bad for assuming things, but seriously THANK YOU for being like THE ONE GAME where that kind of character appearance isnt given just One Same Plot Again And Again And It Is Gross and seriously man I WILL NOT STOP BEING HAPPY THAT THERE IS NO LOLICON HERE HOLY FUCKIN SHIT (well.. except some of her dlc costumes seem to be the actual lolicon characters from earlier games, which is Annoying.) but yeah seriously she’s fuckin like CONSTANTLY PUNCHING DOWN DOORS AND SHIT and I’M LOVE HER and like her earliest establishing moment is her oblivious of human culture norms actually leading to her being like.. the wise one in the conversation her cutting off asbel’s ‘wah but I should be the one protecting you cos I’m a boy, even though you’re like eight years older than me and i can barely lift my sword’ and her making this declaration of protection to him is the moment that shapes her entire character and becomes like the emotional core of the whole plot and she gets THE MOST BADASS scene of (seemingly) sacrificing herself to save his life, ending this cute kiddie flashback on a super somber note and then Asbel dedicates his goddamn life to becoming a knight in her memory after she fuckin SUPLEXED A GODDAMN DRAGON WOLF THING WITH ITS CLAW STABBED THROUGH HER STOMACH and just... I REALLY LOVE SOPHIE!!! seriously kid asbel literally said ‘i’m embarassed to be protected by you cos you’re a girl’, like HOLY SHIT DUDE and this is ACTUALLY SHOWN AS WRONG and he CHARACTER DEVELOPS OUT OF IT and HER PROTECTING HIM IS LIKE THE WHOLE FUCKIN GAME and just THANK YOU seriously tales of beseria had a bunch of weird sexism issues despite being the most recent game, its so annoying how the series has such inconsistant quality on this stuff, so im just REALLLLLLL FUCKIN GLAD to see this, thankz
oh and like... they even do... LITERALLY the ‘but she’s really 700 years old’ excuse for ‘loli’ characters BUT NOT AS AN EXCUSE FOR LOLI CHARACTERS she’s a thousands of years old magic soldier homunculus thing that will forever look like a young girl, but NOBODY USES THAT AS AN EXCUSE TO FUCK A YOUNG GIRL THANK YOU GEEZUS CHRIST cos like.. goddd... being super immortal and eternally a child is A COOL PLOT that has SO MANY OTHER DIRECTIONS it could be developed in, instead of just fuckin pervy lazyness and this game ACTUALLY DOES THOSE DEVELOPMENTS aaaaaUUUUAUAAAUUUUA god its SUCH A RELIEF we start the game off with the intriguing wonder of how everyone changed post time skip yet she still looks the same age (plus of course ‘how on earth did she survive that apparant death’) And it just keeps having even more cool meta discussion of being so ageless?? and really sad philosophicalness about outliving all your friends?? and all the plots these dumb loli excuse things always ignore and just SERIOUSLY THANK YOU
hell she doesnt even ever really have any romantic plot with anyone ever, except kinda Pascal? tho that’s just a weird ‘lol gay as joke’ thing where its supposed to be funny that Pascal doesnt take no for an answer and like.. seriously why is Sophie even instantly repulsed by Pascal anyway? ‘hey i have no concept of any human social norms except heterosexuality apparantly’. It Is Weird. So yeah lol the game isnt absolutely flawless but I mean geez AT LEAST THEY DIDNT SHIP THE FUCKIN KID WITH ADULTS seriously she has NO ROMANCE PLOT and protagonist man ends up with someone completely different and its just NEVER EVEN DISCUSSED AS AN OPTION like fuckin CHRIST thank yooooou god, just, HOW TERRIFYING it was to see her listed as ‘the heroine’ of this game next to a guy way older than her usually whichever female character has the biggest plot role is automatically the love interest I cant believe i fuckin DIDNT PLAY THE GAME FOR ALL THIS TIME because of that!!!
oh and OH AND the endgame!! the endgame final relationship of her and protagonist? DAD. He not only doesn’t romance her, he ends up adopting her as his daughter by the end of the story its so surreal and interesting tho, cos she was like an older sister to him when he was younger, and now they’ve met again they ended up having such a vastly different relationship and like... well, they’re still like family, just in a different way! i’m so happy seriously DEAR GOD for once a ‘immortal child’ plot actually ended well and no grossness ever and ALSO SHE IS A REALLY ENDEARING BADASS HOMUNCULUS WARRIOR PERSON and aaaa
ok this has been bunni’s rambling post ok back to watchin lets play im SO HAPPY i got spoiled for that thing of the ending like seriously HOW RARE is that???
