Devil’s Night

A Ded & Gonne miniseries

Written by @firstpersonnarrator | Originally begun for @sheehalloween 2022 | Devil’s Night header gif by @salvador-daley | Sheehalloween prompt by Anon: Klaus behaving badly, genfic

AN: It’s Devil’s Night and Ben has no idea what that is. Until he becomes embroiled in a plot cooked up by his not-brother, Klaus. This Devil’s Night miniseries starring Klaus Hargreeves and Evil Ben is part of the Ded & Gonne family of stories. If you’ve been reading Ded & Gonne, this chapter follows immediately after the action in Chapter 6. Don’t feel like catching up? Devil’s Night can be read as a standalone fic. All Ded & Gonne works are genfic without exception.

TWs: Creeping dread (hopefully). Flirtation between two not-brothers. Swearing. A not-so-bright, mildly omniscient narrator. Made-up words and made-up tenses.

Ded & Gonne || Devil’s Night || Start || Next

Part 1: Afraid of the Dark

<<———————————😵‍💫————————————>>

“Benneriiiinooooo.” Calling toward the hallway, Klaus is in his room waiting impatiently for Ben to “Get the fuck over here alreadyyyy!” Klaus has been curled up on the divan, working on his costume with his tongue poking out, all afternoon.

Ben’s head peeks around the door, sees Klaus half disguised as Jesus, and decides that it will go better for him if he picks his battles. (Never tell Ben that he’s at Klaus’s beck and call. It wouldn’t go well for you. Wrong Ben.)

The current Ben — Evil Ben — makes his way in, committing his entire body to looking both sarcastic and bored.

“Save me from my costume! I hate sewing,” Klaus wails. “Maybe I could have knitted Jesus.” Klaus punishes his costume for being annoying by throwing everything angrily in the general direction of his bed. He smiles with satisfaction as the pins and needles scatter on the floor, then turns to Ben.

“Ok, so, Bennerino. It’s Devil’s Night, and it’s cold cuz you won’t let me turn the heat up. So now I’m all snuggled on the divan where you apparently have no plan to join me. Sucks, but ok. Why?”

Ben curls his lip up in disgust. “For reasons, Klaus. It’s magenta velvet. And I can tell exactly where you always sit because the velvet has your ass permanently imprinted in it.”

“My eyes are up here, mister,” Klaus winks at Ben.

“Christ, Klaus.”

“Exactly!” Klaus decides to forego all the blaspheming he could do right now. He’s saving all his blaspheming for the kids on Halloween.

“Hurry up and pop your popcorn, Ben. We will not be stopping halfway through the first story for popcorn-popping. I mean, I know you live to piss people off, but that? It’s irritating. Just thought maybe that was something you could work on. You know, for the future.” Klaus smiles as if he’s indulging a child. “You’ll get there, buddy. You’ll get there.”

Ben is too busy being both taken-aback and off-put to say nasty things while Klaus is saying supportive things. Instead, he looks like a lost little boy. “I don’t live to piss people off.”

“Yes of course you do. It’s one of my favorite things about you.”

“But that doesn’t- Isn't pissing people off a bad thing?” Ben asks, looking confused and a smidge annoyed.

“Yeah, but it looks great on you.” Klaus seems to be feeling affectionate toward Ben again, judging by the smile.

“If you ruffle my hair, I will end you,” Ben warns.

Klaus retracts his hand.

Followed by Ben rolling his eyes, dropping heavily next to Klaus with a bounce, and waiting expectantly for the tv to come back to life.

After a few moments of uncomfortable yet companionable silence, Ben senses he’s being observed. He turns to find Klaus sitting there, expectantly staring at him with a ‘mommy bought me cotton candy’ vibe. All excited and hungry. It’s a little creepy, honestly.

“Uh, Klaus?”

“Yes, Benny Bear?”

Klaus can literally see Ben biting his tongue. “Great!” Klaus praises. “Look at you! You kept yourself from threatening me! And you held back the nasty! That’s progress. You’ve come so far, Benji.”

“Stop trying to provoke me, Klaus. It’s not what I’m going for right now.”

“Ok, fine, have it your way. I’ve taken the threat level down to just defcon Medium Meanie from defcon Big.”

Klaus goes back to staring eagerly at Ben.

This is normally when Ben would just hang up on Klaus. But now they live together. Like, together on the same hallway. Not, like, together-together. There’s a wall. Right in-between them. A wall, ok? Jesus. Whatever.

“So…” Ben prompts, hoping Klaus will start at the beginning. He’s feeling lost.

“I’m waiting for you to start, silly!”

“Start what, Klaus? Start talking, I’m bored.”

“Your story. But, don’t rush it. We’ve got well over 24 hours before it’ll start to be a little sad, missing Halloween entirely because of a creativity vortex.” Not as threatening or effective as a kugelblitz, though.

“What story? Klaus, I’m going to count to five,” Ben snarls. “Trust me, you don’t want to know what comes after five.”

“Ho!” Klaus’s eyes explode out of his head metaphorically, and he frantically begins scanning his bedroom. “Wait, wait! Where’s my bingo card?”

“Your,” [long dramatic pause] “what?”

“My business card.” Good save. “You know what, Bennerino? You don’t have to go first if you’re nervous. I’ll go first.”

“What are you talking about, Klaus? You’ll go first at what?”

“It’s Devil’s Night, Benny Bunny, and I will be your very own little devil for the night. I’ll-”

“Klaus, you’re making me uncomfortable.”

“I know, I’m really good at it. So anyway, where was I? Oh, right, I’m going first.” Klaus bounds out of his seat and Ben is plunged into darkness.

“Pffft,” Ben says, scoffing at the darkness. But then he hears the door creak and the lock click into place.

It’s probably not very kind to point out right now that Ben is already scared. He wouldn’t want you to know about that. So, moving on.

“Klaus?” He gives a quick swivel in his seat, and there’s nothing to see. Quite literally. “Why do you have blackout windows, Klaus?” It is utterly dark. No difference between eyes open and eyes closed. He reaches up to touch his eyes, making sure they’re actually open.

Ben starts fidgeting. He jolts when he notices the clock ticking. Suddenly, he realizes he never bothered to notice much of anything about the room around him. No idea what the layout is, or where the furniture is. Or the piano.

It’s just, whenever Klaus is around, he tends to fill the entire room. Like some obnoxious, yet exotic, tropical bird. All rainbows, pink feathers, and glitter briefs.

Ben starts to tap his foot in time with the ticking clock. It’s a good calming technique. Become part of the music of time and see how long you can keep the beat.

Ben’s tapping foot is sort of spastic, now. He either can’t keep up with the beat, or maybe he’s jumping ahead. He can’t tell which is which. The clock is gaslighting him.

Yep, it’s crawling.

His skin is now crawling. Officially.

Outside, a cat screeches and hisses. Because of course it does. It’s Halloween. Or Devil’s Night, whatever that is.

How could he hear hissing from this bedroom? That was outside, wasn’t it? He’d swear there’s a faint scratching on wood. Through the wall, maybe. His entire being is focused in his eardrums. Trying to gauge the nearness of the cat is more difficult than it should be.

Ben doesn’t hate cats. In fact, Mean Ben is a sucker for cats. They’re aloof and condescending, and yet you still do everything you can to get them to snuggle you. A lot like Ben, the snuggling snuggler, apparently. He definitely wants his benny bear at this point.

See, the thing is, the yowling sounded kinda far away and muffled, like through a wall, a few rooms down the hall, or down the street. But the scratching? That is a lot closer, and more claws than paws. Little scratches, but Ben tries to talk himself down by reminding himself that it’s an old building. Old buildings make sounds, right?

Ben huffs and rolls his eyes, which only serves to remind him that he literally can’t see anything. Nothing. The darkness is utterly complete. No crack of light below the door. No tiny shaft from between the floorboards. Just the scratching. The scratching that has him peering every which way, but the darkness is thick as ink. Almost oily.

Just darkness. Something small, scratching. Small? The ticking. His foot tapping. His heartbeat in his ears.

There were windows, right? Yeah, sure, there have to be, Ben reassures himself. But he vaguely remembers how very many objects Klaus has strewn around the space, creating traps that could be waiting just next to his feet. Like Klaus’s old lady taste in furniture — tufted and tasseled and poofy velvet all over the place. Coffee tables with legs and corners, supporting precariously perched bongs. And bongos. And ashtrays. And scissors. Klaus has to use scissors to sew. Has to.

But there are windows in here, right? There have to have been, right? Klaus wouldn’t choose a room without windows. He thinks he knows Klaus well enough by now to predict the man’s actions and motivations.

Underneath the patchouli oil, the sharp and keen sense of smell that makes Ben win every bake-off, senses something musky. It’s kind of like something evocative of freshly turned earth. Moist, but also tinged with a rotting smell.

The rotting smell is not coming from the same direction as the scratching. Or the yowling.

Ben reaches out with all of his senses like Pogo and Luke Skywalker taught him.

Beneath all of it is something dank and vegetal. And a slight drip coming from behind him. But the hallway is the only thing behind him. Isn’t it?

The scratching has stopped. Now it’s just the ticking of the clock and the droplets of water and the scent of mold, with something sickening-sweet just below it.

His blood is rushing in his ears. And nothing, fucking nothing, matches up. It’s like one of those old, creaky wind-up toys. The jack-in-the-box, cranking, cranking. The horrible clapping monkey, clanking its cacophonous cymbals. It’s an imperfect monkey, slightly out of time with his eyes rolling and the tune and the clanking and clanking. But the ticking clock is so close to the tempo. No, wait. It’s the clock keeping time. He can’t tell which is faster, and suddenly his entire body senses space — every hair, every brain cell, it’s all so wrapped up and jumbled. Which one is out of step with the others? But they’re all out of step and he feels like his ears are stuck in one of those 3D puzzles, the optical illusions your eyes sink into, by design. Suddenly there’s an entire space hidden to the eye, just beyond the length of his arm’s reach. Is there a table in front of him? He can’t remember.

And all of this jagged clicking, and tapping, and breathing, blood rushing in his ears, heart thudding out a tell-tale beat.

Ben’s feeling a little tippy. And he’s already sitting down. He lifts his hand to his face. It feels like something tiny has landed in the space between his nose and lips. Bringing his hand instinctively to his face, he’s surprised to find pebbling droplets of perspiration.

“Fuck!” His hand jerks up and slaps his upper lip. Hard. He pulls his hand back and with it comes a formerly living creature. A small spider. Or maybe a flea? Or a gnat. It had been crawling when he smashed the fucker’s little carapace against his skin. Too tiny to tell how many legs. Wings? Antennae?

Or if it’s alone.

Immediately following that unnerving thought, all the nerve endings in his body go on high alert. The springs in his seat complain when he jolts at the sudden awareness of sensation.

He feels a tickle or a tingle in tiny pinpoints, anywhere his skin is exposed to air.

Ben is starting to squirm. All the tiny hairs on his face and neck seem to get triggered at the same time, no rhyme, no reason. He quickly raises his hands to his face to wipe away all the sweat, and oil, and hairs, and crawlies, telling it all to shut the fuck up and get off his body. Ben finds himself compulsively itching around his neckline.

Everything feels like it’s moving. Ben feels nauseous. His eyes are rolling again, with nothing but thick ink to meet him in every direction. He wants to hug his knees to himself. He almost starts rocking himself; a self-soothing habit he abandoned years ago. But of course the minute he admits weakness, Klaus will undoubtedly return, already talking as he turns the light back on. But his shuffling footsteps can’t yet be heard out on the hallway’s ancient floorboards.

He can’t calm himself. Can’t soothe himself. Ben isn’t weak. He’s evil, for God’s sake. He can’t let Klaus see him like this.

Ben frantically wipes his palms on his jeans and again clears the sweat from his brow, trying not to think about all the little spiders he has just pushed off his skin and straight into his hair.

Ben literally sits on his hands to avoid scratching at his face. His neck. His scalp. His eyebrows. In the corners of his mouth.

No, Ben. No, that’s not a breeze. No. There wasn’t a breeze a minute ago, and there isn’t a breeze now. A prickling. Right behind Ben’s right ear, Klaus whispers, “Boo.”

Secret Invasion Finale Spoilers

WHY IS IT OVER ALREADYYYY Like I need more! There's so much that's unresolved!

I'm so glad real Rhodey is back, and it was awesome that they showed that he was paralyzed (ngl I had forgotten)

IDIOT AMERICAN PRES JUST GOING AROUND SHOOTING PPL?!!! How do u know if they're actually skulls?! Like Americans just randomly killed the British PM??? Isn't that gonna start a war or something?!

Soooo Gaia is like completely OP now... Can they like... Remove the extra DNA from her???

How stupid was the Harvest tho?!! Have we learned nothing about trying to recreate super-human abilities/DNA?!!!!

Olivia Coleman was amazing in this show, I'm really glad she wasn't just in one episode.

This show would've been even more awesome if Maria was in it!!!

I feel like Fury didn't get a ton of Character development? Like he never acknowledged the mistakes he made with the skrulls (Gaia pretending to be him did), and at the end, he ditched Earth + the Skrulls being hunted on Earth to go off-world again? (Yes he went to negotiate a peace treaty for them but all he did to help the Skrulls being hunted presently was a phone call to the president. Didn't even mention how Talos saved his life or anything!!)

[moemammon]

I wanna request hcs of brothers getting surprise tickles from MC. Like, everything's going okay and suddenly MC starts tickling them (idk why, this idea just seems funny to me, especially when I imagine Levi's reaction)

Tickle Fight: Demon Bros vs MC

Lucifer

The fact that you thought you could sneak up on him is enough to make Lucifer laugh. There's no way to tickle this man unless you're crafty enough, so you've gotta get real creative.

But in the event that this is your first time tickling him and you DO catch him off guard, just know that you'll never get him again.

This man watches like a HAWK, especially after you found your pesky fingers tickling at his sides and made him choke on his coffee 🔫

Not necessarily ticklish, but still sensitive to surprise touches like that. When do you think was the last time he's been touched there, anyway?

"Clearly you have plenty of free time, if you're running around pulling pranks like this. Why don't you spend your time studying instead? Unless.. you're asking for my attention?"

Mammon

When I say this boy has the strongest fucking reactions-

He practically LEAPS away from you to escape your evil, tickling fingers. Destroys everything in his path and thrashes around like a fish out of water.

Mammon is probably the most sensitive to touch, especially since it's you. You've triggered his fight or flight instincts and he's ready to square up 💪💪

Once he's put a safe distance between the two of you using a broom for protection, he's prepared to get revenge. You thought you'd get away with tickling THE Great Mammon?!

"O-Oi! What're ya touching me for?! Don'tcha know that tickles?!" "Grr... that smug look on yer face is tellin' me ya did that on purpose! Don't think I'll hold back!"

Levi

All of his years of dodging unwanted physical touch have prepared him for this very moment. His ninja-like reflexes are so sharpened and honed that there's no way you can possibly tickle him!

...Is what he assumed, until you?? Tickle him?? Because you pull that stunt when he's dead focused on a game, and doesn't have time to notice how you're creeping up on him

Flinches so hard he slams his knee on the bottom of his desk-

Will use EVERYTHING at his disposal as a shield and makes empty threats about getting his revenge, but we all know he won't do it. Probably.

"M-M-MC!! That's no fair at all! I wasn't even looking! To think you'd stab me in the back like that... I won't forgive you! I'll get you back! I definitely will-!"

Satan

So you have chosen death.

The fact that you have the AUDACITY to tickle Satan is what he's most impressed about. Then there's the fact that you startled the hell out of him-

But he can't stay mad for long when he realizes it's you, and catches that cheeky look on your face. So you wanna play that game, huh?

Petty as hell. He'll cast a curse that makes you feel ticklish for an indefinite amount of time (or until you complain to Lucifer about it and he makes Satan undo it)

"What, do you give up already? I thought you'd have more in you, since you're the one that came up with this game. But if you admit defeat, I might remove the curse."

Asmo

As the second most ticklish of the brothers, Asmo immediately senses your intentions from a mile away (and because he heard you were going around tickling everyone-)

He secretly wanted in on the fun, so he was thrilled when you finally came his way! ❤️

100% tries to make it lewd (horny bonk). Tbh he's used to light tickling thanks to his 'social life', but he can't handle anything more than that.

That being said, he prefers to tickle you, as opposed to being on the receiving end. He'll literally use his brothers as shields if he needs to in order to get away from you.

"Enough alreadyyyy!! I told you, you're messing up my entire outfit! I've got creases all over it, and my hair is- hey! Stop tickling-! Ahaha! MCCCC!!!"

Beel

You discover pretty quickly that Beel isn't exactly,,, ticklish. Maybe it's the layer of rippling muscle that protects him from your assault? Or maybe the call of hunger is too strong for him to notice what you're doing.

Either way, he hardly notices your tickling, and just looks at you like "you good?" Enjoy awkwardly explaining that you were trying to tickle him-

He does pick up on the fact that you're trying to be playful, and he’d feel bad if he didn't play along too, so he decides to tickle you back....And there's no escape.

His stoic face has the slightest smile on it while he watches you desperately try to escape his tickling, and your laughter makes a fluffy feeling flutter in his chest.

"Is it really that funny? ...You know you can't pull away from me that easily, right? But if you really want me to stop, I will." "....In exchange for a month's supply of pudding."

Belphie

YOU FOOL... YOU COMPLETE, UTTER IMBECILE....

This is literally his domain, and you're a fool to challenge him in what he reigns champion...

What do you think that vice grip of his is for? Not only does it keep you from escaping when you nap together, but now you can bet you're not getting away from his tickles.

Somehow he KNOWS what you're about to attempt, and the next thing you know, you're being pushed onto the bed and tickled until you're read in the face.

"You can do better than that, can't you? Come on, where's the fight you had earlier? Should I tickle it out of you? Answer properly. I can't understand you with all that laughter.... heh."

[wattpadscapcons]

Also, I saw you write for Bede (my best boy), so could I get a GN!Reader comforting him and telling him he’s good enough after the whole Rose scenario? Thanks again pal

~🕷

I don't see why not. And no problem Norman, I'm happy to write for yah!

I might have made him a little oc...sorry. Also, short fic blep...

=

Bede Reverse Comfort w/ GN! Reader

=

"Bede?"

"GO AWAY."

"Come on, please let me in...."

"No, just leave me alone already!"

After Rose disqualified Bede, he took refuge in the Due Drop Inn. You had went to check up on him after letting him have a few days to himself, he was your friend after all. You had the suspicion that he was on the floor with his back against the door due to the shadow you could see.

=

"I know you're just going to make fun of me..."

"Why would you think that?"

You slipped to the floor to mirror him. You hear him let out a shaky breath before finally answering you.

=

"You beat me at every turn, I'm sure you're happy knowing I'm out of the game altogether right?"

"Bede, I don't know who's been telling you all of these things, but I'm just as upset as you are. Knowing that you aren't going to be a step ahead of me to catch me when I least expect it is so.... disheartening."

"What are you going on about now?"

"Well you do know that you're a big part of my success right? I wouldn't have even got to this point without a good rival."

=

You almost fall to the floor when he opened the door to face you, and you quickly stand to meet his eyes. Those violet hues of his had a tint of red, and when he moves to wipe his eyes with his sleeve, it solidifies your suspicion that he'd been crying prior to your intrusion.

=

"Bede?"

"You don't have to try to make me feel better about being disowned by Rose, and being kicked from the-"

"Yes, I do. You're my friend, I'm going to be here for you when you need it most whether or not you want it."

"God, you're so annoying you know that?"

"I just want to help."

"Yeah, I know, but saying these things won't help me feel any better about myself."

"Well, maybe I could do something about it."

"Hm? Y/N-"

=

Before he could protest, you had him in a tight hug, to which he tensed up to. After the initial shock wore off, he brought his hands to you back. He wasn't exactly used to psychical affection, so he felt strange receiving this type of comfort from you, of all people. He didn't understand why he felt both better and worse at the same time upon your touch.

"We all know you were just doing what you thought was right. I'm sure you'll get another chance, so don't give up hope already."

=

He thought of just pushing you away, but his hands defied him, clawing into the material of your jacket. When you went to pull away finally he could feel tears threaten to spill once again.

"I don't know why you did that....but I think it's time you should go."

"I'm not leaving until you're feeling better."

"I'm fine..."

Sadly the voice crack he had didn't help him in his case. He'll just have to be annoyed with your presence for a while longer.

=

You ended up spending most of the day with him, and after a while, he was feeling good enough to warrant you to finally take your leave.

"Ok, so you know where to find me if you need me again right?"

"I can just call you, I have you number already."

"Alright, well I'm going to get some training in and then book a room for the night. We ended up talking for a pretty long time, not that I mind much."

"Just leaaaaveee alreadyyyy."

"Fineeeee, I'll see you later ok?"

He playfully pushed you out of the room.

"And don't come back."

"Veryyy funny!"

=

You knew he was only fronting, and that he didn't actually hate you that much. Hopefully, he'll be able to pick himself up after all of that, of course you didn't mind helping him again if another emotional breakdown was to occur for him.

Little did you know that he was going to be picked up by Opal and have that cocky confidence restored. When you did happen upon the news though, you were happy for him, you just hoped he'd still come to you if he was having trouble.

GH | 35. Dance Break

GH 34  GH 36

It has been a weekI was staying with Rudy in his apartment and, so far, it has been great. Not that I expected anything other than that. There hasn't been much progress in our thing aside from kissing more often and having a harder time keeping our hands to ourselves and I think that could be because of the fact that we were alone and didn't have to worry about getting caught or being teased. I facetimed Maddie pretty much everyday, once in a while with Chase (mostly when he claimed Maddie's phone when she was talking to me) and even had Drew once or twice, not so distrectly, trying to update me on Chaselyn. I loved that they were still as chaotic as ever and couldn't wait to visit them. Rudy had some online interviews and also did some lives on Instagram with other cast members. Aside from editing some of my own pictures, I had nothing else to do in the meantime so I stayed in the background, either cleaning or reading one of the many books Rudy owned. Another day came by and Rudy was supposed to go live again with JD. I had to answer to some e-mails but decided to push that task to when Rudy was busy so I could be busy myself. "Aaaand we're live!" I didn't even noticed Rudy getting ready to start it so I immeadiatly got up from the couch with my laptop with the intention of going to "our" room so Rudy could be more comfortable by himself. To my surprise, he told me to stay, laughing at the fact that I thought I would be bothering him, claiming he didn't mind the company at all. It was cute and I felt better, so, after I finished my e-mails, I stood on my same spot, staring at him, appreciating the way he comunicated with his fans and even giving acting advice. I even heard him reading comments of peole asking about me, which resulted in him stealing glances at me, not bothering to hide his cheeky smile. He went to put some music on and, with his eyes on me, started dancing. I laughed quietly at the boy in front of me. "Ma'lady.", he extented his hand to me, asking me to dance with him. I shook my head, smiling nervously about the fact he wanted me to appear on the live. Not that it never happened before, but it wasn't just us. Being just us felt like officializing whatever we had and, it's not that I didn't want it, it's not that I didn't appreciate the love and support everybody showed towards our potential relationship, it was that I just wanted to be sure that what we had was something real, that we were both on the same page, before diving right in, no questions asked, and end up getting hurt, or worse, lose Rudy's friendship, which I valued over everything that has been going on between us. But something in the way he looked at me made me forget about that concern and just go with it. Like we usually did. I held his hand, adjusting my crop top and my sweatpants when he pulled me to my feet. "Dance break!", he shouted. At first we danced together, twirling around, making dips, pretending to dance a professional tango, laughing the entire time at how bad we were at it. I actually forgot about the phone showing it to thousands of people for a moment. Another song started playing, making us break apart so each one could do their own thing, their own dance-ish thing, just goofing around in front the phone camera. Still dancing, Rudy made his way to the phone to check the comments. Curious, I did the same, doing a weird walk towards him, making him laugh as he looked at me through the screen.

user they're fucking goals omg

user1 AHHHHHH IM SCREAMING THEYRE SO CUTE

jonathandavissofficial I have no idea who these people are

madelyncline GO BEST FRIENDS, GO BEST FRIENDS

user2 are they living together?

madisonbaileybabe Weeeerrrkkk

user3 just confirm youre dating alreadyyyy

"Hi friends!", I exclaimed, timidly, contrasted to my quirky attitude not even five seconds before, which made Rudy laugh. I bumped my hip into his as in telling him to shut up but it only made him laugh harder. "Hey JD, get in man.", Rudy said. I went around the kitchen table to the fridge to grab some water. Being the clumsy shit I am, I miscalculated when I should tilt the water bottle to take a sip and a bit of water ran down my chin, leaving a thin trail of water to run down my crop top. I cursed in a hushed tone and, hoping Rudy didn't just witness that, I took a glance at him, but the idiot was already looking at me, visibly holding back a laugh. I held a finger up signaling him to not even try to say anything as I tried to uselessly clean the water drops between my boobs. His eyes didn't leave mine though, well actually, my chest. "Stop staring stupid.", I whispered, now controlling my laugheter too. He just winked at me and turned his attention back to the live.

user ok tell me I wasnt the only one who saw the wink

user1 THE WINK bYE

user2 I want someone to looka at me the way Rudy looks at Kelly

user3 imagine getting winked at by Rudy Pankow im so jealous of Kelly rn

JD eventually joined the live, Rudy moved to the couch and I decided to stay in the kitchen. I was doind my own thing, once in a while Rudy moved the camera so I could appear when JD asked me a question or wanted to include me in a conversation. I interrupted Rudy and JD's current discussion by accidentally dropping a pan, making a loud, echoing sound when it hit the floor. Rudy's eyes widened at the sudden noise. "What the hell was that?", JD asked through the phone. "Kelly.", he asnwered, "What are you doing?", he turned to me. "Waffles." Rudy gasped in excitement getting up from the couch. "Yo Kelly's making me waffles!", he said to the phone. "Who said it was for you?" His excitement dropped and I couldn't contain my laugh for long. "Oh shoot!" "I'm kidding! You can have some!" He smiled again and I heard JD laugh. "Ship. Ship, ship, ship." "Shut up Pope.", Rudy said, fake mad, impersonating JJ.

They ended the live at the same time I finished removing the last waffles from the machine. I separated it into two plates and set them up on the kitchen table along with some toppings and fruits and cutted earlier. Rudy came to stand behind me as I cleaned the waffle machine, his arms wrapping around my waist from behind and his lips leaving kisses from my right shoulder to under ear. "Have I ever told how much I love you and your waffles?" "Hmm, no, not that I can remember.", I joked, cleaning my hands with a towel and turning my head to look at him. He kissed my nose and smiled. "Well I do love you. And your waffles."

hello! smiling anon here. i’ve been listening to loona’s heart attack lately so i was wondering if u could write something based off that song with jaemin or johnny of nct? it sounds like johnny is my bias but maybe he is lol :) hope u have an amazing day/night thank you

i originally tried to write it for Johnny but.. I really wanted to try it for Jaemin, i hope that’s okay :) thank you for requesting hehe i'm always excited to see you in my inbox !!

Heart Attack - Jaemin

Warnings: none

Summary: Heart Attack by Loona where the aftermath of you confessing to Jaemin leaves your heart in a messy state. Jaemin comes over because neither of you can sleep and you end up binge watching movies.

now playing . . . Rise Up by ASTRO

[a/n]: i normally listen to the song that’s requested while writing a fic that’s based on a song, but I really needed some Astro energy :”) 

It’s getting clearer I’ll give you all my heart, take my heart Surely we’re destiny It shines fully tonight This must be what sweet addiction is, darling I fall deeper into you Pounding more and more

“Jaemin,” you tugged on his sleeve as he was walking ahead of you under the night sky.

“Hm?” he turned to face you and his eyes were sparkling.

“Jaemin I think I... No, I don’t think. I know. Yes. Jaemin... I like you,” you confessed. Though your confession was filled with nervous rambling and your eyes couldn’t focus on Jaemin’s face, that was all Jaemin needed.

He smiled and pulled you closer to him. The crickets chirping somewhere deep within the park weren’t loud enough to mask the beating of your heart.

“Well, [y/n]. That makes two of us. I like me too, but I like you more,” Jaemin said as you were pressed up against his chest. He couldn’t hide his smile and neither could you.

The evening after your confession, you can’t sleep. Neither can Jaemin. You were both wondering what life was going to be like from now. You’ve always been friends, but this is something else.

Jaemin: [y/n], are you awake?

[y/n]: yes, what is it?

Jaemin: i can’t sleep ><

[y/n]: me neither... T-T

Jaemin: what do we do... ?

[y/n]: wanna come over and binge watch movies?

Jaemin: HOLD MY PURSE I’M COMING-

Jaemin shows up to your door with disheveled hair and wearing wrinkled white T-shirt. When you laugh at him, he glares at you.

“I came all the way here and you’re laughing in my face?”

“I’m sorry, you’re just too adorable,” you say, ruffling his hair.

Your hands are cold, and Jaemin notices. Taking hold of one of your hands, he looks you squarely in the eye.

“Are you nervous now that we’re dating?”

“N-no,” you say, turning your back on him so you can go turn the TV on. You just know he’s smirking at you while you walk away.

“Well, I don’t blame you. With the great Jaemin as your boyfriend, your heart must be beating quickly at all times.”

You scoff, but he’s right. Your heart has been beating so quickly and loudly because the thought of Jaemin just... makes your heart burst. You finally confessed to him and he didn’t reject you... you’re over the moon.

But Jaemin is able to act so calm around you..

That’s what you think. 

Inside, butterflies are stirring within him and the thought of wrapping his arms around you while you watch movies fills his heart with joy.

In front of the TV, Jaemin pulls you onto him right away.

“Finally I can hug you for as long as I want,” Jaemin says, his voice muffled since his face is buried against the back of your neck.

Your heart, there it goes again!

When his fingers interlace themselves and his hands sit right on your stomach, you freeze up. His warm body around yours makes you feel so happy... you want to stay in that moment forever.

“What’s taking you so long, [y/n]? pick a movie alreadyyyy,” Jaemin whines.

You find something to watch but you’re not able to concentrate at all. You wonder if Jaemin is tired or if his legs hurt from you sitting in his lap.

“Jaemin, do you want me to move?” you ask, trying to sit beside him.

His arms are tightly wrapped around you.

“Nooo [y/n], stay here,” he says.

When you finally calm down, you start to feel Jaemin’s fingers running through your hair.

“Your hair is so soft,” he says.

Your heart feels overwhelmed once again and you squeeze your eyes shut.

“Are you sleeping?” Jaemin asks.

When you open your eyes, his face is right next to yours. He smiles seeing you awake, and plants a kiss on the side of your mouth.

Your heart...

“Why are you so quiet today, [y/n]? If you’re tired, you should go sleep-”

“I just love you so much already, my heart can’t take all of this!” you yell, collapsing on the couch. Who knew that loving someone would use up so much energy?

Jaemin’s soft laugh echoes in your ears and you look up at his face, lit up only by the TV screen.

“You’re too cute, [y/n]. You already love me? If I make your heart work so hard, maybe I should just leave for tonight?” Jaemin asks you.

You shake your head firmly.

“Noo, please stay!”

“But how is your heart going to handle,” Jaemin says, his voice tone deep as he lies down on the couch beside you, holding you in his arms. “this.” He kisses the back of your head and your entire body is pressed so closely to his that you can feel your entire body vibrating with the beating of your heart.

“I-”

“I’m sorry, [y/n], but we’re just going to have to sleep like this. Goodnight,” Jaemin says.

Sleep? How can you sleep when Jaemin is hugging you so tightly? You really must love him so much to be feeling like this...

“I’m joking, [y/n], I’m not that mean. I’ll just go for tonight. There’s a song that I always listen to to help me sleep, I’ll send it to you,” Jaemin says, getting up from the couch.

When you pout at him, he ruffles your hair and walks to the door, letting himself out.

Back in your bed, you try to calm your heart by doing breathing exercises and listening to the song that Jaemin sent you. Somehow, you’re able to fall asleep, but who knows how you’ll sleep the next night.

[Stell]

A’TIN: (formally) Hello? Tao po? Is Stell still there?

Stell: he’s still here :)

[T/N: “Tao po?” literally means “is there someone there?” but is used as a polite way to say hello, especially when calling for someone inside their home]

[Sejun]

A’TIN: What small gesture from a stranger made a big impact on you?

Sejun: When they sit at the edge of the jeep near the driver instead of near the door and they hand over the jeep fare even if there’s no other people besides the two of us. It’s better to fill the end first. It’s also for senior citizens or pwds.

[Stell]

A’TIN: Stell, why are you replying to Sejun’s post? Are you lost?

Stell: ehh this is Sejun’s post? :O

[Stell]

A’TIN: Can I ask you to make a cake for me for my Debut in December?? 👉👈😀

SKAM Fic Love Fest 2018: Comments

It’s the Skam Fic Love Fest! Thanks to @evaksbinder for running this lovely event.

Day 1: Writers: share some of your favorite comments and throw some appreciation at your readers because they deserve some love too!

Let me preface this by saying I appreciate every single comment I get, and am so, so grateful for how kind this fandom’s been to me. But in the spirit of this prompt, I’m going to highlight a few types of comments I got on different fics that were extra special to me.

Expect the Unexpected

I always describe this fic as fun above anything else, largely due to the comments. In the early stages of ETU, I was kind of discouraged with it. As fun as it was, it was a big commitment, especially since I was mostly plotting as I went. It wasn’t getting much attention, and I wasn’t sure if it was worth continuing. However, I had one plot twist planned from the beginning, and I at least wanted to get there. When I did, I got a response like I’ve never received before, starting with this comment from @sana-halla (I think this is the first time we talked!).

OOOOOOH MY GOD

Listen I cannot tell you how invested in this fic I've become as soon as this updated me and like 5 other friends started screaming about it and what Jonas just did to MY BOY ISAK and how Evens gonna react and I never thought I'd care so much when I DONT EVEN WATCH BIG BROTHER but babe I am HERE for this AU and I LOVE IT!!! I can't wait for the next update alreadyyyy ahhhhh!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

The comments continued in that vein--it was just so fun to see people that invested! It’s also special to me because I became good friends with many people who commented for the first time that chapter. 

Other highlights are everyone who’s told me they started watching Big Brother because of the fic or stayed up until 2AM binge-reading it (which happened for Blood vs. Water and Survivor as well). I also appreciated everyone who complimented my plotting skills, because I’ve always considered that my biggest weakness as a writer.

Dear Friend

When I started this fic, I knew it had the potential to be good, but that its success would depend on how well I wrote the letters. The first chapter was two short letters, and it was like a test-run for the entire fic. So, I was thrilled to get a comment like this from Stardust9909:

I am literally chortling here and I can't stop! How did you manage to capture Isak's voice so effectively. I am sorry, but Nicolas Cage and the Declaration of Independence killed me and I have tears leaking from my eyes and I can't leave a coherent comment. I can't wait to read more. This is gonna be epic. Let's hope Even survives Isak's letter.

I was like, yes! I got Isak’s voice! And it was funny (I always love people telling me I’m funny)! Throughout the fic, I was always happy to get comments that said the letters felt in-character and that I captured Isak and Even’s voices well.

Shifting

This was the hardest fic to write, and I’ve never been that nervous posting before. It was so, so far out of my comfort zone: I’d never even attempted anything like it.  So, you can imagine how relieved and excited I was when this was the first comment from @towonderland72:

BRI. THIS CONCEPT. I am absolutely obsessed with this, I can't even begin to tell you. Isak in this is so kind, so caring--I love all the ways this diverged from canon, and how you built the universe so flawlessly. Of COURSE Even in this universe would feel the things he does! Of COURSE Isak would be a little afraid. I loved how seamlessly Isak called out Even for being uncool by flirting with him and then forgave him--how easily they decided to be together, because they liked each other and that was that. I kind of want to live in this world, tbh. Thank you for writing it <3 

I loved how detailed and engaged the comments on this were, with readers coming up with their own theories about the shift. 

There’s a theme with these three fics: I took a risk with all of them. I wrote a reality TV AU, letters, and magical realism, all for the first time. Again, thank you to everyone for being so supportive, because you’ve encouraged me to continue to take these risks and grow as a writer.

[indigowallbreaker]

Here's a prompt~ Robbie finds Sportacus crying one night after Sportacus gets into an argument with a few certain family members (who didn't come to Zeh wedding) who visited suddenly, and weren't very happy he married robbie and decided to talk to sport. (This has been in my head all day help

-rushes in three weeks late with sportscandy- Hopefully this get the idea out of your head if it hasn’t left alreadyyyy~

--

By the time Robbie went up to the surface to find hishusband, it was almost noon. An airship Robbie had never seen before wasspeeding away from Lazytown. He watched it leave, perplexed, and let his eyestrail down to the town itself. Everyone was gathered in the square. Even the Mayorand Bessie. Something big must have happen.

And of course, Robbie had missed it.

Annoyed with himself, and at Sportacus a little for not waking him up forwhat looked like an emergency, Robbie stomped over to the small crowd. 

In the very center stood Sportacus. The elf was standing motionless withhis back to Robbie, staring up at the retreating airship. His hands were curledinto tight fists at his sides. Stephanie was standing nearby, looking unsure.The other kids were a few feet away.

“They can’t be your relatives,Sportacus!” Ziggy said, breaking the tense quiet Robbie had walkedinto, “Family doesn’t yell likethat when you didn’t do anything wrong!”

“Don’t worry about those jerks, Sportacus!” Pixel agreed.

Stingy looked thoughtful. “Robbie’s really good at disguises though. Maybeif he dressed up as an Elf...” 

“That’s not the problem, Stingy! It shouldn’t matter that Robbie’s not anelf!”

“I was just trying to be helpful,” Stingy huffed with a glare at Trixie.

“Sportacus?” Stephanie tugged lightly at Sportacus’shirt, “Sportacus, Robbie’s here.”

Finally, Sportacus turned around. Robbie, who had been feelingincreasingly more worried the more the children spoke, felt his heartsink. Sportacus’ eyes were red, heavy with tears. A few had escaped downhis cheeks. His mouth was set in a firm line. 

“Kids?” The Mayor was speaking but Robbie couldn’t take his eyes away fromSportacus’, “How about we go inside and get some lunch, hm? I think Ms.Busybody made her famous vanilla cake!” The kids all hurried away afterthe Mayor and Bessie. Stephanie reached up to pat Sportacus’ shoulder. Sportacusgave her a watery smile in return.

When they were alone, Robbie closed the distance between them and tookSportacus’ hand. “I don’t know what’s going on but I’m sure I can make anElf disguise if you need me to.”

The corner of Sportacus’ mouth twitched but he shook hishead. “They were cousins from my mother’s side. Apparently theydon’t “approve” of heroes marrying non-elves,” Sportacus took up a mockingvoice that barely sounded like his own, “And you didn’t even have thedecency to marry a female! Don’t you know how heroes are made? How could you beso selfish?! Your poor mother-”

“I don’t remember anyone having a problem with us at thewedding,” Robbie interrupted, desperate to stop Sportacus repeating theinsults. Clearly they were upsetting him all over again. He was squeezingRobbie’s hand tightly and the knuckles of his other hand were turning white. 

“They didn’t come. You wouldn’t have met them.”

“I’m sorry you had to deal with them alone.”

Sportacus took a few deep breaths and Robbie rubbed his thumb againstSportacus’ hand to help him calm down. After a few minutes, Sportacus no longerlooked near tears. Instead, he was frowning fiercely. He looked back up at thesky, in the direction the airship had disappeared in. Obviously he had thoughtof something.

“What’s the plan?” Robbie asked. Sportacus looked back at Robbie andRobbie felt a surge of pride at the vindictiveness in his husband’s eyes.

“You love me, right Robbie?”

“I- Yes?? What kind of question—”

“Marry me again. In the North. In front of all myfamily this time.”

A grin spread across Robbie’s face, “You’re a genius.”

[suckitsurveys]

What is your significant other or best friend’s ring tone? Mark’s ring tone right now is the Stranger Things theme song.  Where do you keep your hair brush? On a little vanity I have in our room.  Which pair of shoes have you owned the longest? Hmm, probably a pair of converse from 7th or 8th grade.    When's the last time you were sick at the same time as someone else? A few months ago literally everyone at my job was sick at the same time, including me.

What did you have for breakfast this morning? I’m eating a whole grain English muffin with fake butter and honey on it, with a side of strawberries and pineapple chunks How many contacts are in your phone? 80. How many do you actually interact with? I’d say like...10, maybe? Last time you were in pain? My gums are kinda bothering me.  What color was the last straw you drank out of? Green. Do you own a Jean jacket? I do. Two, actually, but one doesn’t fit that great. Trying to get back into it though! What color is your mom's hair? It was blondish brown. Is that also your hair color? Probably.  Plans for the day? Finish this survey, maaaybe do another one, go to the gym for an hour or so, go to the dollar store and Michael’s so we can finish our spice rack project, finish said spice rack project, hopefully get our buffet table from my grandma’s garage, and organize the kitchen once that is in here.  Have you tired the new caramel M&Ms? I HAVE THEY ARE SO GOOOOOOOOOOOOD. Do you watch any daily vloggers on YouTube? Who? I watch Steps to Wander and Jesssfam most often. Those are the only “daily” ones I watch.  On a scale of 1 to 10 how tired are you right now? I’d say a 4. I just woke up about half an hour ago and I’m feeling pretty awake right now.  Next trip/vacation/time you’re going out of town? I technically go “out of town” every day for work, but that is boring and doesn’t count so the next trip I’m taking is to Pittsburgh with my dad next month! Any annoying neighbors? Right now someone is moving in upstairs so it’s SUPER annoying, but I’m sure other than that they are lovely people. We’ll see.  What room of your house do you usually do your surveys in? I usually do them at work, oops. But right now I am doing this one in my living room.    What do you put on your tacos? Totally depends on the taco, dude. If I’m making a super Americanized taco, it’s ground turkey (or beef) in a hard shell with lettuce, onions, tomatoes, cheese, sour cream, and sauce. Same with Taco Bell. Okay now before Ioose all my street cred, I know those aren’t actual tacos, which is why I said Americanized. Sometimes ya just need a crappy taco in your life. ANYWAY, if I am getting one from a Mexican place, I’ll take whatever they put on it, which again depends on the place. My favorite tacos are in corn tortillas with chicken, onions, cilantro, and a little bit of sauce. The “authentic” way.  What is your favorite stuffed animal and where did you get it? Hmm. It’s a panda but instead of black and white it’s purple and white. I got him at the Memphis Zoo a few years ago. Last thing you hung up on your wall? A “W” flag in our bedroom above the bed.  Do you have a full length mirror? Not yet! We need one so bad. Is it currently raining? It is! I wouldn’t mind it if it were warmer out though. Supposed to be 65 today. It needs to be over 70 every day alreadyyyy.  Where were you going the last time you walked through door way? Into the living room from the bedroom. Where did you get the last survey you took? Besides this one? I made this one! Lol. Before that it was probably tumblr somewhere.

(Makoto arc end)

[[MORE]]

Oh, hey, Chihaya.

Idk if I'm remembering the timing right, but it looks like they took out Ryuji's interaction with those two entirely. I told him to wait outside bc of his uniform and he said he'd kill some time somewhere until I was done

It really does seem kind of awful of us to volunteer Mishima for this, especially without him knowing.

OH HERE THEY ARE

Oh, hey, they think he's interested in drag bc of how he was looking into Crossroads. They want to help him out. Still sucks that this supposed to be something funny, and that they're dragging him off without his wanting to, but it is better than it was.

UGHHHH MISHIMA IM SORRY

Oh, this translation seems different. A bit more natural, I think. Still really harsh, though. Sae...

Makoto...

FUCKING PRIESTESS LISTEN TO YOUR INNER SELF THIS IS JUST DOING SOMETHING FOR THE SAKE OF DOING ANYTHING PLEASE PULL BACK AND THINK STRATEGICALLY INSTEAD IF GOING ABOUT THIS SO EMOTIONALLY

Honestly her charm stat is in the pits. It's kind of hilarious since you need high (max? Idr) charm to progress past rank 5 with her.

Huh, if she had social stats... High knowledge, low charm, good guts, not totally sure about proficiency & kindness but I'm leaning towards okay-low proficiency and middling-decent kindness.

Now, the others...

Ryuji would have low knowledge, good guts,

Listen, I'm having trouble with quantifying their kindness. Because, they all have differing levels of what I consider personal-kindness and general-kindness

Wait. Do I really want to get on this tangent right now? ...Not really. Hold that thought. Back to the game.

GOD this was so dangerous I am honestly amazed that she got out of this okay.

GOD THAT IS SO DANGEROUS I AM HONESTLY AMAZED THAT HE GOT OUT OF THAT OKAY

Honestly I'm kind of surprised Kaneshiro doesn't have a doorman or anything.

Jeez, Kaneshiro's face looks off compared to everyone else. Like, on its own, it's a decent face, but it looks like it doesn't belong with the rest.

Huh, I wonder how many of them actually have mommies and daddies to beg money from. Let's see... Makoto is being raised by her prosecutor sister. Parents dead. Ryuji is being raised by a single mom. Dad left a long time ago. Canonically poor. Yusuke was being raised by Madarame. Mom dead. Dad out of the picture, idr how. Canonically poor, with poor money sense. Ann has parents. Successful fashion designers that she doesn't see half the year. And the protag has an ambiguous family situation. Of course, I have my headcanons, but that's nothing. Anyway, if we were going about this the way Kaneshiro wanted us to, Ann would probably be able to provide the most, followed by Makoto. (Again, leaving Ren out of this).

Guh, thinking about it like that feels shitty.

...can you even imagine an ATM with Ann's pigtails though? I mean I know the other ATMs don't have any distinguishing features but still

Anyway

Godddd, I really love when people are given reaction shots when something another character is saying is resonating or otherwise meaningful to them

Makoto: "A lot happened after we lost her father three years ago, so it's just us living together... But I'm still a child, so all I am is a burden to her..."

Yusuke: *cut-in* "......"

Me: *chef's kiss*

...it happens at other times in this game (and other stuff), too, but I just wanted to point it out. Especially bc you kind of have to infer a lot of the time when it comes to Yusuke.

OHHHDJDJSJDJJDS HE LOOKED SO SAD WHEN MAKOTO CALLED HIM A CANINE

"IT'S FOX" HE SAYS

Both Makoto and Ann called him specifically a monster cat. I wonder if the Japanese calls him a cat ayakashi or something.

What property damage did any of us cause?

Why is Shadow Kaneshiro purple anyway?

JOHANNA IS SO FUCKING COOL GODDAMN

I love Makoto's awakening ngl

But honestly, is there a /bad/ awakening in the bunch? They really killed it with the game aesthetics, you know?

"No weaknesses. Our only chance is to make them confused" or whatever she just said about confusing them. Idk if I just tune her out or if that's a new thing

Didn't Makoto have Flash Bomb or whatever that multi-phys + chance of Dizzy skill was called? Maybe she gets that at a higher level

*heavy sigh* Okay, Makoto

"I will crush him like a fly" I see what you did there

It really is nice that they're bringing up the advisor thing instead of just her doing it herself. I still feel like there should have been a little more talk about it amongst the 5 of them instead of just the 3 human-shaped guys but w/e

The references to English songs and memes is a little jarring, ngl

Man, Sae's gonna flip her shit when she hears what Makoto did to get here.

Awww Ann & Makoto are bonding

*sigh* listen, I like Makoto, I even dated her in my first playthrough of vanilla p5, but I really dislike how they just keep shilling her around this time. It's a little off-putting. I think it's a thing Atlus likes to do.

Hmm? Is the man getting joint pain on rainy days going to affect his Mementos fight?? Interesting.

Ughhhhhh Queen choosing her name and then the """strategy""" thing is exactly the same. Like her being there even changes anything about how we go about things. And we do think about what we're doing, actually! Well, mostly Morgana bc Phantom thievery is his whole schtick. But like, outside our usual plans, we successfully pulled off the heist in the Madarame Palace, for example. We also opened the locked door and dealt with that. We go about the palaces with intent! Blugh.

"it's my role to be the brain of this team and give out orders" BLUGH

And then Ryuji & Mona are into it... -_-+

I hate this part. It's awkward and dumb. There are better ways to make her their advisor, Atlus

Also someone mention that I am field leader pls. I know you did in vanilla p5 do it now as well

I wonder if they've changed her s.link abilities? They at least have to have given her 1 more thing due to the baton pass thing

I WONDER IF EIKO WILL HAVE A SPRITE NOW?!?!? I hope so ^u^

GUH I love Makoto's Queen outfit.

Oh, whoops, I forgot about that conversation. Maybe I should have put Morgana in my party.

But heck yeah, let's do a finisher! I wonder how to get these for people.

RYUJI WANTS TO DO A SHOWTIME WITH FOX "We could call it Art Run or something" I LOVE HIM

SHIT WHEN WAS THE LAST TIME I SAVED

Ugh, it's really frustrating that they're trying to get me to showtime w Ann & Morgana when all the enemies here are weak to Zio & Bufu (with a little bit of Psi & Gun thrown in for good measure).

Okay, have reorganized my party so I don't have to use an Agi-weak persona to go after enemy weaknesses. That was so embarrassing.

Oh, neat! My sleuthing instinct kicked in! ... Makoto's abilities have to have changed.

YOU MEAN SHOWTIME CAN KICK IN EVEN WHEN ONE OF THE MEMBERS IS NOT IN THE PARTY?!?!?! AHHHH

Maybe even both, idk. Morgana seemed like the best choice to heal/lucky punch so he's in my party rn but maybe when he gets swapped out later I'll find the answer to that

...this is being surprisingly easy. But I don't think I'm overleveled... Jeez, I haven't bought weapons since Kamoshida's Palace. And they give you so many clothes in this game... And accessories! Really!

But yeah, I finished that security guy in 3 moves. Morgana - Garu (absorbed), Yusuke - Bufu (inflicting Freeze), Ryuji - Headbutt (Technical) -> All-Out Attack. I remember it being a lot harder in the original. Idk.

Okay, the next one was slightly harder. It took two All-out-attacks to beat it. But hmm.

Maybe I am overleveled, though. Apparently that miniboss (??) Was only level 21, and I am 23.

Oh, I'm getting Sigma feelings. Ann's counting down for opening the vault-like door.

I don't think I've ever noticed before how neat Kaneshiro's palace music is. Well, at least the Laundering Office, anyway. What is this, exactly? It's some version of Price - that's the same melody line, but the instrumentation is all different. That's not to say that Price isn't good; it's just that I'm weak for strings & orchestra instruments in non- orchestral songs. It sounds darker and more intense. I love it

Oho? That gold vault door seems new.

Or maybe I just don't remember it.

Anyway. I really do appreciate that Morgana mentions Shadow personalities in negotiations. Like, I read the tutorial on it, but it's nice to have him like "what's this one so happy about? Well, guess we'll play long for now" or whatever he says for an upbeat shadow. It's pretty neat.

"I wonder what it'd be like if we had Palaces instead of Personas." SAME, RYUJI, SAME 👀👀👀👀👀

Hmm, I know Joker Palace has some fics, and I think I remember seeing a Crow Palace fic, but I wonder about the others...? Hmm 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀

I don't want to accidentally spoil myself, though. I'll go through the archive after I finish this.

"Your Palace would definitely be a beef bowl shop." ANN OMG

"Why'd you gotta give a straight answer right off the bat? I can't argue with that!" Ryuji pls ;u;

Why do Will Seeds all look like that? I know there are those death things with the hollow eyes like that, but is that what it is? It just seems so out of place in this technical setting. I'm kind of surprised they don't change appearances to suit their Palace. Tbh, it doesn't really look like anything that comes from Mementos, either. But I suppose it must...

WHOA, why did the Velvet Room door turn red? "I have an uneasy feeling" Same, protag, same

WHY IS THE VELVET ROOM ON HIGH ALERT

A fusion alarm? OH COME ON IT HASNT BEEN THAT LONG SINCE I FUSED ANYONE

Is this because I still have Jack Frost with me? But come onnnn I already had most of this palace's inhabitants alreadyyyy

By /fusing/ them

Could this have come at any time? Or was this scripted for now? Oh, wait, I overreacted, this says that my Personas will be stronger if I do it during a fusion alarm. Kind of incentivizes him to slack off, though, doesn't it? Lol

Oh, interesting. Look at all those accident possibilities. Nvm.

Orpheus... ;-;

Huh, I didn't realize the Picaro versions also were not just dlc

"You would like me to become your mask? Well then, let us search for the answers of life together."

*lie down* *try not to cry* *cry a lot*

Anyway.

I need to go to Mementos and find an Eligor. Gotta get that Flauros.

YES FINALLY MY GUTS INCREASED

Aww, the newspaper club girl is rooting for the phantom thieves. She's so angry at akechi rn

Oh, speaking of! Hello, Akechi!

AHHH RYUJI AND MAKOTO TEAM UP IM SO PSYCHED

Oh man it's bc of the motorcycle ISNT IT, RYUJI : DDDDDD

JDSKSKXNXJKS

The voice acting there was. Wonderful. Omfg

Actually, now that I think about it, it makes a lot of sense that Ryuji's tried to suggest team ups twice now, ever as soon as he learned they were a thing. He was on the track team, and the team aspect of that was very important to him. He likes cheering others on and being cheered on by others. Specifically by training and sweating and testing limits together - by fighting together. Of course ryuji is interested. Of course he is.

Man, I wish I had better context for the "you filthy fly on dirty money" line - I mean, obviously he's Beelzebub, who is apparently in charge of gluttony, but like, is that a phrase? Is this just a Beelzebub reference or is there more to it bc it feels like there's more to it and I don't understand bc cultural reasons

Blegh I don't want to give up my expensive items...guess I'll do this the tedious way.

Ah, here we go. Let's see how these hired guns are. Hopefully I can see the Makoto & Ryuji showtime? :3 ?

Wait, Bael? Not Beelzebub? Really? Huh?

YES IT'S SHOWTIME

HOLY SHIT I LOVE IT

I wonder why that briefcase was related to his distorted desires. We really know so little about Kaneshiro, relatively

Yusuke's kinda on the ball today.

...*snerk*

Wow, damn, Akechi was potentially onto us since the Kaneshiro calling card? He gave a list of potential candidates, maybe we were on it...

Makoto, really, it was unfair of everyone to put the burden of resolving the Kaneshiro issue on you. You really can't be blamed. you know that, right?

Oh, hey look, it's 'Gaudy Student' there in the background

Hhhhhhhhhhh there are so many choices I have 5 potential social links to do tonight. I could start Kawakami, Ohya, Chihaya, or Hifumi, or I could level up Yoshida since it's Sunday

AHH KASUMI IS SO CUTE. FUCK!

BWAHAHAHAHA justice rank 3 is. Amazing.

"I've seen everything. A vision of you groveling on the ground..." IS THIS THE THING IN DECEMBER SHES TALKING ABOUT

[tellywoodtrash]

ishqbaaz/dbo 23.05.17 lb

day 2! please god, let this be a better episode than whatever yesterday was. 😕😕😕

plain text version here. 

oufffff shivaaaay, such screamy. 😣😣😣

ohhhhhhh shit. i thought this was part of the "plan" he made with anika, but nope. BIG BROTHER KNOWS. AND HE IS NOT HAPPY. 😬😬😬

haaaaye, look at this innocent praani. “mujhe kuchhhh samajh mein nahi aa raha haiiiii.” pffft. 🙄🙄🙄

i'm totally relating with shivaay's teeth-grinding waala gussa. kyunki is nikkame ne kaam hi aisa kiya hai. 😠😠😠

before anyone accuses shivaay of being a hypocrite considering how he himself got married, lemme jump to his defense real quick: shivaay's always seen himself as the big bad wolf who does all the dirty work to protect the fam. he does the things he does SO THAT omRu can maintain their innocence and go through life as "the good ones" who never have the bear the weight of such actions on their consciences. i imagine he's very disappointed and angry that om too, fucked up at the start of his marriage in almost the exact same way he did (which is something he still hasn't forgiven himself for, even if anika has.) 😔😔😔

... suddenly subha's nose looks... not that different???? or have i just gotten used to it? 🤔🤔🤔

pffffffft, shut it buamaa. at this rate, shareef toh bas rudra bacha hai. warne baaki sab ke sab... khair chodo. 😒😒😒

"hum teeno ne kuch decide kiya tha, ki ek dusre se kuch chupaayenge nahi"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHA OK SURE SHIVAAY. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

says the guy who JUST THIS MORNING was avoiding rudra's calls so that he didn't find out sahil had been kidnapped. lmfao, ok NOW you guys can go ahead and call him a hypocrite. 😊😊😊

ouff shivaay, i know this is 45 min ka episode and tujhe lamba kheenchna hai, but JUST SPIT IT OUT ALREADY. 😒😒😒

lol om and jhanvi's “oh shit oh shit oh shit oh shit” faces. 😆😆😆

yup, the chairman of Organization for Upliftment of Oberoi Bahus is carrying out his duties much seriously. 😊😊😊

lmao pinky's face be like "ab yeh nayi gareeb kaun hai???" 😂😂😂

lmaoooooooo, way to drop a bomb on dadi, billu. socha bhi nahi ki woh buzurg hai, and the last time you pulled this shit nearly killed her???? she had to go on like, 4 theerth yatras to get over it.  🙃🙃🙃

lollllll rudra-anika arguing terminology. 😂😂😂

shivaay's pulling a real anjali from IPKKND on finding out about baby bro's secret wedding. 😗😗😗

no for real he looks so hurt tho. someone give my boy a hug. 😞😞😞

all i want to know is this: does shivaay know that this bulbul is the current maarta hua chulbul???? 😆😆😆

ohhhhhh boy. buamaa ne bhaanda phod diya. 😬😬😬

THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU PEOPLE DON'T FUCKING TALK TO EACH OTHER. 😑😑😑

and pinky, tum toh chup hi raho. badi aayi bataane waali. 😤😤😤

oh shit, NOW WHAT???? 😧😧😧

lmao, though we've never seen you use this body rudra???? your brothers are always having to do the haathapai themselves. 😕😕😕

lo, bade bhaiyya bhi utar gaye maidan mein. ab toh haar maan lo, behenji! 😂😂😂

lol, how much older than SHIVAAY is svetlana supp to be???? 🤔🤔🤔

also hello, what happened to that fast approaching birthday of shivaay's? did we miss it? 😐😐😐

again, no one is bothering to ask her WHY SHE WANTS TO DESTROY THEM. they're just like “yeah, everyone wants to kill us, we're used to it now. 🙄🙄🙄”

bua maaaaa, you're just adding flame to fire. kyun bechaare shivaay ko aise jalaaa rahi ho? 😟😟😟

aw. billuuuuuu. *pats his floofy hair* 😔😔😔

"O bhi bareilly jaake SSO pt. 2 ho gaya."

and therein lies the root of all the problems. and awwwww, poor rudy boy was feeling left out. 😪😪😪

MAN I MISSED THE OBROS. I REALLY REALLY MISSED THESE BOYS AND THEIR BONDDDDDDDDDDD. WHY CAN'T WE JUST HAVE ONE SHOW AGAINNNNN?????? 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭

LMAOOOOOOOOO SHIVAAY'S FACE. 😂😂😂😂😂😂

ok, i guess everyone's just glad om didn't threaten rape/kidnap anyone to coerce gauri into marrying him that they're all like YAAAAY WEDDING TIME HAPPY TIME. 😕😕😕

dadi doesn't have naseeb to watch any of her kids' weddings. ab bas prinku ek aakhri umeed ka chiraag bachi hai. 😌😌😌
