soulbond au || written in the stars [♥ ☁︎ 🖋⚠ ] masterlist

dazai osamu has seventeen soul-marks, most of which are platonic, and in the short-run of things they do nothing but make his goals to keeping the promise he had made for odasaku impossible- in the long run, however, they are probably the reason he has yet to close his eyes to this world that they are living in. they are probably the only reason that he is still alive...

osamu is eleven when she runs away from home after being betrothed to a man twice her age and is found by mori who takes her in for his own gains.

after a staged accident on ice that cost dazai his carrier rather than his life, he starts to lose himself and his will to keep going on- the two kids that he meets on the ice, kyouka and atsushi, however, end up giving him something akin to hope.

role reversal/time travel au || to set things right [♥ ☁︎] masterlist

chuuya leaves after the flags dies and dazai is left behind to watch as he becomes one with the light- till he no longer has to anymore. the first time chuuya leaves, he does it alone- the second time, however, he finds himself dragging dazai along for the journey.

amnesiac dazai/dazai gets shot instead au || something worth remembering [♥ ☁︎ 🖋 ] masterlist

dazai is shot instead of odasaku, loses his memories and ends up being taken in by natsume who fakes osamu's death to protect him.

Blood Right  by @evinaadlene

Evina1234 II 200k II Explicit

Moodboard by @sarcastic-sue 

“Is that-him?” someone next to Louis asks. “Who else would dress in red if not for him today?” Beside Louis, Lady Camellia had her eyes locked on the one in red garbs, as same as many around them. Clearly this must be intended, or why dress in such a way today at first place? “My... He looks dashing." the first one licks her lips, eyes darkening in a laced lust. "Who would've known? Thought he'd be in chains, stuck in a dark dungeon." The other scoffs. “Have you been under a rock? He's the most privileged Lycan alive. The King's ward, some go so far as to call him his consort. It’s all hushed, but I have my sources.” she reveals like a dirty secret. In a world where the Vampires have taken over, Humans are just pawns in blood farms, Warlocks are extinct while the King has Lycans under his thumb - eliminating the threat of the lethal bite. The world is falling apart. Louis, nephew to the malistic Vampire King, lives away from it all in blessed ignorance until he gets dragged into the chessboard that traps him in front of a green eyed Prince who is bound to a miserable fate. Or where Louis wants to save Harold, the Prince of Lycans, when Louis' allies want him DEAD.

Actions and Consequences  by

HelenaAzure II 95K II Mature

Moodboard by @sarcastic-sue​

For each action, there will always be a consequence. No one knows it better than Harry. Lies, deceit, tricks, treachery. When kings and queens come down to play, things are bound to get bloody. The question is- who will survive... and who will fall?

Harry is a prince. Louis is a King. They are destined to be together. But things are much more complicated than it meets the eyes. Throw in a war, a life long secret born of deception, a quiet love, a treason of the highest sorts, a mysterious child of royal lineage and a considerate yet troublesome horse into the mix, and you get a legend which resonates through the pages of history ---- This is a story about finding strength within yourself and healing. About friendship and true love. It gets real rough, and the characters fall. But they get back up again stronger than ever.

----

Help me boost it!!!

[recurring-polynya]

Renruki for the OTP!

4, 9 , 22, 31, 35, 44,

4. When they can’t sleep, what do they do?

When she’s still living at Kuchiki Manor, Rukia likes to walk around the gardens in her pajamas in the middle of the night and talk to the koi. Byakuya does this, too, and they have passed many an insomnia night together. Once she’s married, if she can’t sleep, Rukia will get up and go do something-- make a cup of tea or draw or catch up on paperwork, and she’ll almost always wonder if Byakuya’s out talking to the fishes.

Prior to their marriage, when Renji can’t sleep, he likes to stare at the ceiling and stew in his past failures. Once they’re together, he almost never has trouble sleeping, but if he does, he’ll just snuggle Rukia until he drifts off again.

9. Who accidentally pushes a door instead of pulling?

Rukia has never, in her entire existence, pushed a door that said “PULL” on it. How could you even think this? How dare you think this.

Renji pushed on a pull-door one time 45 years ago and Rukia has never let him live it down for even a second.

22. Who texts more often?

They text each other in roughly equal measures, but Renji texts more, overall.

Renji is friends with a good 90%+ of the Seireitei, and even though he’s not really a gossip, he is sort of a nexus of gossip. He is on 16 different group chats and his DMs are the true forbidden archives of everything that happens in Soul Society. Aizen may have tracked the growth of Ichigo’s potential for 15 years, but he doesn’t know the full details of the time Shinji may or may not have caught Yoruichi hooking up with Soi Fon at one of Byakuya’s flower-viewing parties (an incident which had to be pieced together in postmortem by at least seven different lieutenants)

Also, Renji tries to use some semblance of grammar when he texts, but Rukia is absolutely feral in terms of sending things like “y u do this 2 me?”

Both of them are embarrassingly heavy emoji users.

31. Who has bigger cravings? What are they?

They both grew up in food insecurity, but have sort of come out of it with opposite outlooks. Renji eats on opportunity. He doesn’t really get cravings for particular things, but he’ll eat almost anything, including horrifying combinations of things. If a diner has a menu item called Garbage (anything), he will order it immediately. He is absolutely a pineapple on pizza guy. He thinks Orihime is a culinary genius. He’s somewhat thrifty by nature when it comes to eating--he’ll go out to be social, but he’s more likely to eat in, or get in a good meal at the mess hall. Over the years, he has spent a lot of time at other people’s family gatherings, and grandmothers instinctively love to feed him things.

Rukia also has a very generous palate, but there are particular things she really loves, and the one nice thing about being a Kuchiki is that she’s not shy about Treating Herself when she wants something. She loves to eat out, and since Byakuya is very Judgy about food choices, she especially loves going out for greasy junk food with Renji. The primary thing she craves is atomically spicy stuff. Poor Renji doesn’t handle spice very well, but he’s always good to come along to hype her up and take pictures of her conquests and to help her get home when she overdoes it and has tears and snot running out of her face. She will also declare that she needs dessert sometimes, and they’ll go get ice cream or some other extremely indulgent sweet, which Renji loves, even if he would never do it just for himself.

35. What do they smell when they smell amortentia?

I had to look up what this was, and apparently, it’s the love potion in Harry Potter, which smells like whatever you find most attractive, according to the HP wiki.

To Renji, it would smell like the promise of snow on a winter day, pine, wintergreen, and a jasmine perfume Rukia wore exactly once to a fancy party. It smells like a Kuchiki Rukia moodboard, and absolutely nothing like the actual Kuchiki Rukia, who smells mostly like soap, pickles, Captain Ukitake’s eucalyptus cough medicine, and cherry-flavored Chappy-brand chapstick.

To Rukia, it smells like a not-as-bad-as-it-sounds blend of gym sweat, hair tonic, soy sauce, ink, and camellias. It smells exactly like Renji actually smells. 

44. What are their nicknames for each other?

A long-standing feature of my fanfic is that Renji calls Rukia “Ru”, but only when it’s just the two of them, and he’s feeling particularly mushy toward her. It was something he started doing in their latter days in Inuzuri as his way of telling her he loved her. Astute readers may have noticed that I have had her called him “Ren” exactly once, in one of the later chapters of Between Tides.

Everyone knows this already, but their texting handles for each other are 🐒🐍🕶️ and ❄️🐰

i don’t feel so alone anymore - noah harris x mc (mtfl)

author’s note: i had to repost this due to blog access issues. this was an idea i had early on when my two first loves started and takes place before mason and ava break up. i used the farmer’s almanac to pick specific flowers to reference in this fic. the meaning of white jasmine is “sweet love, amiability” and pink camellias represent “longing for you,” which i thought was fitting for noah. the other two flowers are defined in the fic.

copyright: all characters owned by pixelberry studios. moodboard created by me. series/pairing: my two first loves - noah harris x mc (emma rating/warnings: 13+; minor grief, mourning word count: 3.3k summary: it’s the third anniversary of emma’s mother’s passing and the price family have plans to visit her grave. noah finds out and offers emma his heart in support.

i don’t feel so alone anymore

the day was here again. i can’t believe it’s been three years, emma thought to herself as she grabbed a black sweater dress and pulled on a pair of black tights. am i really going to wear all black today? screw it, she thought, pulling on her calf-length black leather boots as well. she didn’t want to spend another minute thinking about her outfit or school. she just needed to make it to lunch.

emma sighed and pulled out a photo album from the bookshelf on her desk, opening it about three quarters of the way with practiced ease. she couldn’t help but smile at the photo in front of her – the last time her family was complete and happy. she had just started her freshman year of high school and made the cheerleading squad.

“we need to celebrate! can we have 4 specials, including milkshakes, and the family-sized ice cream sundae for dessert?” mrs. price ordered in rapid-fire succession, before everyone had even settled into the booth.

“mom, you know we’re not going to be able to finish all of that!” emma said, trying to be serious but failing to stop the wide grin on her face.

mr. price put his arm around his wife’s shoulders. “it must be a special occasion if we’re getting the ice cream sundae.”

mrs. price looked pointedly at her husband, but the twinkle in her eye suggested she was teasing. “of course, it’s a special occasion. our little emma bear is a high schooler and a cheerleader!”

emma stuck her tongue out at the childish nickname her mom continued to use. “mom, don’t call me that!”

it was the last memory she had of her mother that she could look back on fondly, before she got sick. emma traced her mother’s face with her finger, her gaze lingering on the deep purple scarf with pink and gold flower detail and matching dangling earring set. she looked up at the box hidden in the top shelf inside her closet, where those same scarf and earring set were stored, untouched for the past three years. taking a deep breath, emma grabbed the box and pulled out the scarf first, running the soft fabric through her fingers before wrapping it delicately around her neck. she picked up the gold dangling earrings next, sliding them onto her ears, the pink and purple crystal flowers catching the soft light of the bathroom lights. her phone buzzed a few times and she glanced over at the notifications.

noah: [want a ride to school?]

mason: [hey emma, need a ride to school?]

it was the same every morning, except when mason was carpooling with ava. she stopped expecting texts from ava, after she decided that emma was trying to steal her boyfriend. however, she was not in the mood for any of the stupid drama today. she quickly texted a brief “no,” to both, put her phone on airplane mode, and followed her dad out to his car.

“i’ll pick you guys up at 12:00, right here,” mr. price said, looking over at emma and mackenzie, who just nodded and stepped out of the car.

emma looked over at her dad and noticed the tired look on his face. his eyes were red and puffy, like he had spent the night crying. “we’ll get through this together,” she said, softly.

mr. price met her gaze and smiled. “you look beautiful today, just like your mother did when she wore that scarf.”

emma felt her lips quirk up. “thanks, dad.” she gave him a quick peck on the cheek and stepped out.

she wasn’t in the mood to talk to anyone today. she walked to her locker to grab her history textbook before heading to homeroom.

“look at miss goth-wannabe over there. going to a funeral?”

emma took a deep breath. she saw lauren and ava walking towards her out of the corner of her eye and turned away so she wouldn’t have to make eye contact. she blinked rapidly at the stinging feeling forming behind her eyes at lauren’s comment and quickly sat down in the back corner of the room, on the side of the room closest to the door. if she had looked at ava, she would’ve seen the conflict on her best friend’s face. but they weren’t really talking these days, and emma didn’t want to feel hurt and disappointed in case ava didn’t remember what today was. only four hours to go.

as soon as the bell rang that signaled the start of lunch, emma walked as fast as she could toward the school entrance. she was weaving around students heading to their lockers or the cafeteria, heading in the opposite direction, when someone grabbed her wrist. emma tried to yank her wrist away and whirled around to see who had grabbed her.

“hey emma, where are you rushing off to? is everything okay?” noah asked softly, still holding onto emma’s wrist.

emma looked up at him and her eyes softened at the genuine concern in noah’s eyes. she bit her lip as she debated internally whether to tell him the truth. there were only two people who really knew what happened freshman year and would understand why today was so significant, but of course, those were the two people she wasn’t really talking to much lately.

“my dad’s picking me up for lunch and i have a free period after. i’ll be back for practice,” she said finally, avoiding eye contact.

noah let go of her wrist and moved to tuck a stray hair behind her ear. the simple motion made emma’s heart flutter and her body tense. bringing her eyes up to meet his, emma let out breath she didn’t realize she was holding. noah’s gaze was soft, gentle, but inquiring in a vulnerable way. his hand lingered by her cheek and she subconsciously started to lean into his palm. as if on cue, noah brought his palm closer and emma felt his thumb gently stroke her cheek.

there was something about the look he was giving her that made emma want to let him in. “we’re going to visit my mom’s grave. she died three years ago today,” she said softly, dropping her gaze to the floor.

noah held her chin firm and lifted her face so she was looking at him again. “i’m so sorry,” he murmured. “it’s understandable why you’d want to avoid everyone today. what can i do?”

emma pulled back instinctively, startled, but noah’s grip on her chin held her in place. most people who had never lost a loved one usually asked, “are you okay?” and emma would say “i’m fine,” as if it were a reflex. if they hadn’t lost a loved one, sometimes she would get the unintentionally offensive “time heals all wounds,” that she’d respond to with silence until they awkwardly excused themselves from the conversation. this was the first time in a long time someone just acknowledged her pain and asked her what they could do to be supportive rather than presume she wanted to hear unsolicited advice.

“that’s really sweet. i don’t think anyone’s really asked me that before, so i don’t really know if there’s anything you can do. but i really appreciate it,” she said finally, feeling a small smile appear on her face.

“i have a free period after lunch too,” noah started slowly, bringing his thumb to stroke her bottom lip. “i could keep you company or provide you with a distraction. whatever you need.”

his voice never wavered but emma saw the uncertainty in his eyes that darted between her eyes and her lips.

emma smiled a little wider. “that sounds nice. maybe you can meet me at the graveyard after my dad goes back to work? i’ll text you.”

noah’s eyes seemed to brighten and soften at the same time. “you got it, emma,” he said and with one last, quick glance at her lips, he dropped his hand from her face.

as soon as his hand left her face, emma missed the warmth. her gaze dropped to his lips once, before moving back up to meet his in what she hoped would be seen as silently asking for permission. noah’s gaze darkened so slightly that emma wondered if she imagined it, before his soft lips were on hers. she wasn’t sure who moved first, maybe they both moved at the same time, but all she could focus on was noah. he was kissing her sweetly and gently, as if he were afraid of pushing too hard or overstepping, and it was just what she needed.

she finally pulled away after what felt like minutes even though it was probably a few seconds and smiled. “thank you,” she said, giving his hand a squeeze before walking out the door.

ten minutes later, emma slid into the booth next to mack at the diner they used to go at least once a week. now they went as a family a couple times a year, in the spirit of remembering her mom. both mack and her dad were quiet and staring at the menus in front of them.

“3 specials with milkshakes and an ice cream sundae?” she suggested, mustering an encouraging smile on her face as she looked at her dad.

mr. price’s face brightened a little. “that sounds perfect for today.”

mack rolled her eyes but couldn’t stop a smile from forming on her face. “i am definitely going to fall into a food coma after lunch.”

emma quickly put in their order, making sure to also ask for coffee for her dad. once the food came, the awkwardness dissipated a little as they reminisced about their favorite memories with their mom. emma noticed both mack and her dad’s expressions seemed a little lighter by the time they were ready to leave.

after the meal, and boxing up lots of leftovers, they headed to the graveyard after a quick stop at the florist to pick up a bouquet of pink calla and stargazer lilies. emma held tightly on to the bouquet the entire ride over, feeling a sting behind her eyes and trying to keep the tears at bay by blinking rapidly. her mom absolutely loved pink lilies in all forms and while looking down at the picture-perfect flowers in her hands, she could feel how much she missed her mom. she missed her so much it physically hurt.

all too soon, she’s standing in front of her grave and the large tombstone with only the left half filled out. her parents had bought a shared plot and tombstone when her mom got sick. it was one of her mom’s strengths – she was always thinking ahead to find ways to lighten the burden on her family, even if said burdens came. the design and inscription on the tombstone were thoughtfully designed and selected by her mom, so the message was especially poignant. it was also the way her mom removed the burden from her family of having to deal with the logistics of arranging everything while they were deep in their grief.

“i love you mom. and i miss you so much every day,” emma said softly, kneeling down to help her dad clear out the weeds in front of the stone before laying the bouquet down. i hope i’ve made you proud, she thought to herself, taking a few steps back to allow her dad and mack to have their own private moments.

mr. price stood between emma and mack with an arm around each daughter. he gave their shoulders a light squeeze and emma wrapped her arm around her dad’s waist to give him a one-armed hug.

“come on girls, i’ll give you a ride back to school,” he said as he started walking back toward the car. mack followed but emma hesitated.

“actually, i’d like to stay a little longer. i don’t have any more classes today so i just need to get back in time for practice. i can take the bus back,” emma explained, tensing as she waited for her dad’s reaction. to be honest, she expected him to get angry and go into a lecture about skipping school even if she had a free period, but he didn’t.

he was quiet for a few moments before nodding. “i’ll see you at home later. be careful,” he said, turning back around.

emma let out the breath she was holding. she ignored the 30 unread texts and 5 voicemails from mason and sent a quick text to noah, who arrived more quickly than she expected. she walked back toward the main path so he could see where she was and noticed that he was holding two bouquets.

“what’s this?” she asked, as they walked back to her mom’s grave.

noah looked at her sheepishly. “well, i wanted to bring you and your mom something. the hyacinth and gladiolus flowers are for your mom,” he said, pushing the bouquet in his right hand toward her.

emma bent her face down to take in the scent of the flowers. “these are beautiful. usually people just get roses or chrysanthemums. i don’t think i’ve heard of these before, why’d you pick them?”

“i did some research on the meaning of flowers. white hyacinths can represent prayers for someone, and gladiolus flowers represent remembrance,” he said, softly. “i wanted these to be special.”

emma felt her heart swell with warmth. “noah… you being here is special. but thank you, this is incredibly thoughtful.” she smiled and stood on her tiptoes to kiss him on the cheek. she motioned for him to place the flowers next to her bouquet from earlier before turning back to the grave.

“mom, i want you to meet someone special. this is noah harris from school, a very important friend i made this year,” emma said softly, intertwining her fingers with noah’s and giving him a light squeeze.

“just a friend?” he teased softly.

emma blushed and tried to keep her gaze forward. “i, well, you’re special to me,” she stumbled, embarrassed.

noah squeezed her hand. “you’re special to me, too.” he turned to address the grave. “mrs. price, you have an amazing daughter. she tried so hard to become my friend when everyone else preferred to ignore me. i never thought i’d have someone like her in my life, someone who sees me for me and chooses to see good. i am so grateful that you raised her to be so kind and thoughtful.”

emma’s jaw dropped and she turned to look at noah’s face. even from his profile, she could tell he was being sincere, and very vulnerable. he turned to her with a soft smile and emma just felt like her insides were melting. she surged forward to kiss him, hard, letting go of his hand so she could wrap hers around his neck. noah took a step back in surprise but quickly regained his balance and held her waist firmly as he kissed her back. he pulled back shortly after to hand her the other bouquet, which emma had forgotten about. she took the bouquet from him and inhaled the perfume radiating off the pink and white flowers before looking back up at him.

“these are for you. white jasmine and pink camellias,” he said softly, tucking a stray hair behind her ear.

“thank you,” emma said, sighing happily when noah placed a soft kiss on her forehead. “and what do these flowers represent?”

noah was silent. emma looked up from the flowers at him curiously but he was avoiding her gaze. was he blushing? she couldn’t remember if she had ever seen him blush before and now, she was really curious about what these flowers represented.

“you’re blushing! now i really want to know. please or i’ll just look it up,” emma teased, elated at finally seeing noah blush.

noah turned to head back toward the main path, but not before he grabbed her hand and intertwined their fingers. “i think i’d rather you look it up when you get home so you can’t tease me anymore today,” he said quickly as they made their way to his motorcycle.

“fiiiine, but i reserve the right to tease you about it tonight or tomorrow,” emma said, taking the spare helmet from noah.

he grimaced but emma could see the ghost of a smile twinkling in his eyes. she climbed behind him on the motorcycle and held tight as they made their way back to school. they walked hand-in-hand to the football field, ignoring the looks from everyone as they continued toward their respective locker rooms to get changed for practice. emma held on to her bouquet tightly and couldn’t wipe the smile off her face as she chatted with noah the entire walk over.

if anyone was looking closely, which emma wasn’t, they would’ve noticed that noah wasn’t really saying anything but looking at emma adoringly as if everything she was saying was the most interesting thing ever. which it was, at least, to him. not even seeing ava being handsy with mason could put a damper on emma’s spirits as she said goodbye to noah before heading over to the bleachers for cheer practice.

“how good of you to come back for practice after skipping school at lunch,” lauren remarked sarcastically as emma started stretching. the entire cheer squad and even mason seemed to have gone silent, waiting for emma’s reaction or response.

emma took a deep breath and straightened up to look at lauren directly with a frostiness that seemed out of character. she could see ava and mason out of the corner of her eye look at her with concern. “i didn’t skip. my dad signs us out for a half day so we can visit my mom’s grave on the anniversary of her death every year. got a problem with that?” she stated, her voice unwavering. lauren’s eyes widened in surprise. “didn’t think so.”

“two laps everyone, now!” ava ordered. the other cheerleaders seemed relieved as they started jogging away from the bleachers. “emma, wait. can we talk?”

emma paused and turned to look at ava and mason. “em, i’m sorry. i tried texting and calling you all day,” mason said, hands clenching as though he was trying to keep himself from reaching out for her. emma knew what he was really saying, which was that either he was sorry he forgot it was the anniversary of her mom’s death and that emma would need all the support she could get from her friends or that he remembered and was sorry he didn’t try harder to reach out. maybe he was too preoccupied with ava.

emma gave both of her friends long, appraising looks. “is that all?” she said, a little inwardly surprised at her own indifference. ever since her two best friends started dating, instead of seeing them both more, she saw them even less. she thought she would feel less alone after coming back from wisconsin but being a third wheel threw a wrench in that. until she started getting to know noah.

“emma… you know we’re here for you,” ava said softly, her eyes searching emma’s face for cues.

emma thought back to how noah stopped her in the hallway before she left to meet her dad and the flowers he brought to the graveyard. “except you know, you actually weren’t there for me today,” she said, giving them both a piercing look. mason and ava seemed to both tense and inwardly withdraw.

“but don’t worry, i’m okay. more than okay, actually. for the first time in a long time, i’m happy and i don’t feel so alone anymore,” she said, more to herself than to them, as she turned to start jogging along the track.

she didn’t look back at the concerned looks on mason’s and ava’s faces but did wave to noah when she noticed he was looking at her. she still missed her mom every day, but today it didn’t hurt as much. and she knew who to thank for that.

“I... I was convinced I would hate everyone I met here. Especially eligible young ladies. ...I was wrong. You... I do not find you intolerable.” --Duke Lyon, Seven Kingdoms: the Princess Problem

This idea slapped me in the face last night as I was getting ready for bed, so I had to make it today. A moodboard for Duke Lyon/MC (namely, my Jiyel scholar, Lady Camellia), because I’ve missed them.

[guccisvt]

There’s Always More

Genre: Smut Word Count: 3.3k Warnings: First Time Receiving Oral Summary: Getting a tattoo was the main goal but meeting him was a plus.

This moodboard was made by me. The photos used do not belong to me. Credit to the owners:)

Constant tapping resounded through the room that you waited in and as it started to annoy you, you realized it was you, tapping your foot nervously. The room you were in had black, glossy walls with beautiful artworks that covered almost every inch. Designs of what you assumed were some of the tattoo options were propped up in a glass case. Each colorful sketch had you amazed. The one that caught your eye however, was the light purple and pink plum blossoms. A branch connected each blossom down into a flutter of petals. It was something you would have loved to get but you came for a specific image.

As you continued to stare and imagine the image of the plum blossoms starting on the side of your neck and ending somewhere at the top of your chest. Your nervousness automatically subsided as the image began to fill your mind.

The door to the room finally opened, slowly pulling you from your thoughts. You began to fidget with your hands again because the squirmy feeling in your gut was coming back. The person who closed the door, came to stand in front of you with a huge smile, holding out his hand to shake yours.

“Hey! I’m Mingyu! How are you today?” he asked enthusiastically.

You observed his deep voice as he sat on a sleek stool that was placed on your left side. His pearly white smile nearly blinded you as he continued to smile when you shook his hand and told him your name.

“So could you tell me why Seungcheol was so set on you getting a tattoo?” he asked you as he began to gather and shuffle papers.

“I told him I wanted one and he went crazy on me and referred me to you.” you replied.

That was basically the gist of it. While hanging out with Seungcheol about two weeks prior, you explained that you wanted to get a tattoo and the reason as to why. His eyes enlarged as you continued your explanation as he began flailing in excitement.

“Finally!” he shouted and hopped off of the couch to reach for his phone on the kitchen counter. You had agreed to not use your phones that day but after hearing the news, he automatically thought of one person.

“My friend’s a tattoo artist. He gave me mine.” he said while looking for this friend’s number. You stared at the small arrow that he had on his inner forearm as he finally found the number and told you to call right then and there. You scowled at him but knew he was right. If you hadn’t done it then, you probably would not have had the courage later on.

Now that you sat in front of the artist himself, you got a nervous yet giddy feeling. Observing him further, you noticed a flurry of blooming camellias on the side of his neck. It was a beautiful sight indeed. Tattoos of flowers always interested you. Coincidentally, you also wanted a flower on your inner wrist. A peony to be exact.

Peonies symbolized prosperity and compassion. You could only hope for prosperity after the time you had been having for a while. They also stood for romance but that was not the reason as to why you wanted this tattoo. All in all, it just hadn’t been your month. This tattoo was something out of your comfort zone but it would definitely bring your spirits up.

“Now what can I get you today?” he smiled when he finished organizing his papers and allowed an array of drawings to sprawl across the table. You saw a beautifully colored butterfly along with a powerful looking bear. Your gaze went back to the plum blossoms and Mingyu noticed your attention linger on that specific drawing.

“The plum blossoms? They’re really pretty, aren’t they?” he commented which made you nod absent-mindedly.

“Are they what you want? It seems like you really have a thing for flowers.”

You turned to him in slight confusion.

“Why do you think I’m interested in flowers?”

He chuckled before replying, “I saw you staring at mine along with the plum blossoms. Let me guess. You want a bad-ass rose? Maybe a cute little daisy?”

His mocking tone made you a bit angry but you kept your composure and shook your head.

“I want a peony.” 

“Oh? And why that specifically?” he asked with a raised brow.

“I’m going to start to prosper. And this tattoo is step one. Peonies symbolize prosperity and honor. It will also remind me that I’ll only gain success if I’m willing to take risks. ” you explained.

“You’ve really done your research, haven’t you?”

“You were right. I kind of have a thing for flowers. The flower language is really interesting.” you admitted.

Talking about flowers and their meanings was such an interesting thing to you. They all had multiple meanings based on simple things such as color. Finding someone who seemed so perceptive and knew a thing or two about flowers intrigued you.

“Now.” he spoke while rubbing his hands together. “What do you have in mind?” 

You took out your phone, ready to show him a picture of a tattoo you had found online and thought would be perfect when you heard the click of a tongue.

“My tattoos are special. I don’t recreate others’ original work. I make my own. What I meant was for you to show me a picture of a specific peony and I’ll draw it. I’ll tweak it to what you want and then we’ll see how you like it.”

Your mouth formed an ‘o’ shape in both surprise and understanding. You actually had the picture of the peony that inspired you to get the tattoo in the first place and found it quickly. You excitedly handed your phone over to Mingyu which made him smile a bit at your giddiness. He immediately set to work, doing a rough sketch.

“Are there any special symbols that you’d like in the sketch?” he asked while keeping his eyes on the drawing.

“Small pearled crystals...” you mumbled while looking back at the drawing of the plum blossoms.

“You must really want those blossoms.” he chuckled. “Why don’t you get them?”

“If I get them, I want them to be visible. Nice and big. Something to be proud of but I also have to think about work and other places where people wouldn’t be comfortable with seeing them. I can’t have them on my neck like you do.”

“Who cares what others think? Isn’t a tattoo something that’s important to you?”

“Of course but...”

“If you truly want to prosper,” he stopped drawing and turned to you, “You’ll do what you want instead what you think others like. It’s less burdensome and way more fun.” he smiled. “Aren’t you supposed to start taking more risks?”

“Yes...” you smiled back.

“Well, I let you stay for the sketch but to really make this one of a kind, you’ll have to give me a few days.” he said as he lifted the rough sketch of your precious flower.

It was already so wonderful. Excitement was all you could feel when you saw the sharp lines around the flower along with some of the markings around and on it. You smiled widely at Mingyu before taking the drawing from his hands.

“When should I be back?”

It had been a week and you were back in Mingyu’s studio. You were unconsciously tapping your foot again while longingly staring at the drawing of the plum blossoms. Plum blossoms had an even better meaning than the peony that you requested. Plum blossoms symbolized perseverance and hope; both of which you needed. As the week had droned on, you thought deeply about what Mingyu said about wanting something for yourself. The longer you waited, the more you thought about the plum blossoms and getting them the way you really wanted. Sprawled across your back, beautiful and proud.

When Mingyu walked in, you felt bad for changing your mind on such short notice but you were still paying for the tattoo so why not request another?

“Hey, Y/N. How are you today?” he excitedly asked and made his way over to you.

“I’m great. Really excited to see the drawing.” you smiled as he set down two pieces of paper. You were confused for a second, wondering why there was another drawing but when you looked closer, you noticed one was of the peony you requested which turned out beautifully. You didn’t want the tattoo to have color but the red hue that he colored it with made the depiction that much better. Next to it was a drawing of light purple plum blossoms. An extending branch of the blossoms spread across the paper and rendered you speechless.

“Just in case.” he playfully stuck his tongue out which gave you a peek of something other than the pink muscle.

“Hey. You have...” you motioned towards your tongue thinking that he had something on there but couldn’t feel it.

“Oh yeah.” he replied before sticking his tongue out again.

Your eyes widened as you noticed a tiny black ball on his tongue. You were taken aback for a moment as you looked between the ball and the man’s eyes that were full of mischief.

“Like it?”

“Very... cool.” was all you could seem to get out.

“Now enough of me. What do you think?”

“I’m speechless. They’re both so beautiful.” you replied.

“And...?”

“And...” you hesitated but ultimately decided to say fuck it. “I want both.”

His smile widened impressively when you said that. You discussed where you wanted each tattoo and about the size and placing of each. You watched carefully as Mingyu brought out his tools and materials. You also watched as he changed from a leather jacket and hoodie to a black t-shirt that showed off his sleeve tattoo along with the many others others he had. The two of you spoke comfortably as he decorated your inner wrist beautifully.

“Did you know there is more meaning to a peony?” he asked as you watched him work meticulously.

“Oh really? What else does it stand for?” you asked, looking up from his work.

“Romance.” he playfully growled which made you laugh although your cheeks heated up as well.

Although the process was quite painful, Mingyu’s playful and interesting conversation made it all the better. When your wrist was done and wrapped, it came time for your back. It would be somewhere you were proud to have it but somewhere it wouldn’t be the easiest to find. You had to take your shirt and bra off for it but you didn’t mind much. It was for art after all.You laid comfortably in the black chair that you had sat in to get your first tattoo done and let Mingyu work his magic.

“You know, you have a really beautiful back.”

“Thanks? I don’t really know what a pretty back looks like.” you chuckled.

“I can tell you that you have one.”

Mingyu had been quite flirty during the past hour or two and it was making you both more comfortable and more embarrassed. The tattooed man  was making you feel quite strange in many ways. Although you were comfortable in his chair, the pain from the needle would not let you rest. Mingyu would give encouraging comments every now and then, maybe giving a lingering touch that was disguised as a comforting one. You never imagined the process of getting a tattoo to be so... unconventional. It was refreshing.

You were finally done with the plum blossom and you couldn’t be more satisfied. Mingyu had done a wonderful job and you were proud to already be feeling the effects of your tattoos. Your new additions were already giving you great courage and confidence. You admired the newer one in the mirror of Mingyu’s studio as he walked around, gathering and cleaning a few things.

“I’m guessing you like it?” he asked from across the room.

“I love it.” you smiled to yourself.

“It really does look great.” he said as he took his gloves off and approached you. “But you know what would look even better?”

“What?” you asked while looking at him in the mirror.

“You and me having dinner together.” he asserted.

You stood frozen for a second, unsure of how to answer.

“Too much?” he laughed.

“No! Just enough.” you nearly yelled.

“I’ll give you some time to heal first.” he giggled as he turned around to let you change back into your clothes. The tattoo kind of ended on your shoulder so the fit was pretty painful. Mingyu only laughed when he heard you cursing under your breath.

“I’ll call you?” he queried.

“That’d be great.”

Over the course of a month, Mingyu and you talked happily about random things. It excited you so much that there was a guy with so many of the same interests as you who lived quite the interesting life. You spoke about flowers and tattoos, mutual friends and much more. Mingyu even took the liberty to visit you and nag about proper tattoo aftercare of which you made sure to take care of. Seungcheol even came around and teased the two of you and often spoke about how he was the reason why the two of you met.

Finally, the tattoo was fully healed and you were no longer sore. Mingyu was hype to see you for a proper date and you reciprocated the feeling. The two of you were planning to go to dinner and then hit a club that Mingyu frequented due to connections with the promoter.

You wore a black v-line romper that plunged in the back to show off your new “accessory” and black velvet boots. The outfit was a purchase that you had  gotten on a whim. It reminded you again of why you got the peony and it made you smile every time you looked at yourself.

You met Mingyu at a restaurant he had recommended and took your time ordering. He playfully complained but found it cute how you thought so many things through to the end. He was somewhat the opposite, loving spontaneous ideas and actions. Whenever you did something out of your comfort zone, it was something he showed endearment towards.

As you ate and spoke, you found yourself feeling all the more comfortable with Mingyu. His presence had always made you feel some type of ease when talking with him but finally sitting in front of him again and going on an official “date” made you feel a state of repose.

Somewhere along the way, Mingyu’s tattoos came up in conversation. Although you were very interested in them, you were wondering about something else.

“Does your piercing hurt?” you queried.

“No. I’ve had a for a year or two now.” he chuckled.

“It’s not uncomfortable or anything?” you further inquired.

“No. It’s actually really useful.” he smirked to himself mostly.

“What could possibly be so useful about a tongue piercing?”

“How about we skip the club so I can show you?”

Your hands tangled in Mingyu’s blonde hair as he pulled you deeper into the is by your neck. Every breath was heavy and far in between as he lifted you by the thighs and let you bounce on his bed. His jacket came off immediately before he pounced on you again. His hands trailed everywhere before he tried to pull down the straps of your romper to no avail which made him pout a bit in frustration.

You let out a small laugh before pushing him off of you and straddling his lap. You lowered your sleeves seductively. He sat up and pulled the rest down before kissing your exposed shoulder. He trailed wondrous wet kisses from your shoulder to the juncture between your shoulder and neck. His hands sprawled across your back, pulling you closer against him.

You moaned softly at the feeling of his lips. He was taking his time to enjoy you. he loved the expanse of skin he got to peek at when he was working on your tattoo. He was being quite honest when he spoke about how beautiful he found your back. Every movement of each muscle was an enticing sight.

Mingyu rolled you back under him before hastily pulling off the rest of your romper. He enjoyed the sight of you in a matching black set of lace lingerie that went so well with your outfit. Your coordination did not cease to amaze him. After a nice look, Mingyu licked his lips before grabbing the hem of your panties. He was so adorable but at these times, he couldn’t be described as anything other than sexy. He spread your legs wide, embarrassing you to no end and began to lean in when you whimpered a bit.

“What’s wrong? No patience?” he asked while smiling up at you.

“I wish I did. I’m just really excited because I’ve never done this.” you confessed.

“This? You’ve never had sex?” he asked as his eyes got wider.  “I would’ve gone all out then! I just took you to dinner and then I brought you home; you probably think I’m a no good-”

“No! Mingyu.” you laughed heartily. "No one’s ever eaten me out.”

“Oh.” he said after a slow realization. “Then I’ll make sure the first will be the best.” he winked. Well, that was quick.

Mingyu let his tongue loll a bit to tease you with the sight of his helper before he licked a long stripe up your slit and gently flicking against your clit to the tip of his tongue. Your back arched and a breathy moan left your lips as Mingyu’s hands gripped your thighs even harder. He repeated those movements before pulling away. The loss of warmth caused you to whimper but when his hands spread your lower lips, all protests died down.

His tongue went back to work as he repeatedly let his tongue move freely between your legs. The black ball on his tongue only added to your immense pleasure when you felt the metal come in contact with your clit. You squealed and clenched the sheets by your sides before releasing them with a gasp. Mingyu smirked into your heat before grabbing your wrists and placing your hands in his hair. You gripped his locks with great urgency with a long, breathy moan. Mingyu prided himself in being able to educe such sounds from you.

You tugged at his harder as Mingyu brought his fingers into the mix. You  brought yourself up on your elbows and had to admit, Mingyu’s lengthy fingers were admirable. It was a pleasure to observe the beautiful images he made on your skin. Now, you would be able to experience them providing you with another sort of pleasure.

Mingyu let his index curl inside you eliciting a mewl of pure ecstasy from you. Your thighs clenched but Mingyu’s grip would not allow them to close. As his middle finger joined, you could feel an intense heat in your lower stomach. He pumped his fingers and sucked on your bundle of nerves making expletives fall from your mouth. Mingyu’s name followed after a bunch of unintelligible nonsense as your orgasm washed over you. Your muscles tensed and toes curled as he continued to slowly pump his fingers until he felt you relax.

You slumped back as Mingyu kissed the inside of your thighs and stood up. You stared at him through lidded eyes as he devoured whatever was left of you on his fingers.

“Delicious.” he said slyly as he laid next to you.

“That was unbelievable.” you breathed out as his large hand pulled you closer and began drawing circles on your waist.

He hummed in response before adding, “And?”

You turned towards his face and kissed him feverishly while trying to unbuckle his belt.

“And I think I’m ready to return the favor.”

matchmaker, if you're open to it! :3 or holy well! whatever calls you!

Matchmaker:

(For an honesty post on what my muse likes about yours.)

She likes that Rowan is sort of unable to be fazed (of course this is not entirely true, as Camellia has learned with the whole Hand thing, but she admires Rowan’s stoicism. 

She likes to think about some alternate world when Caora was Queen and Rowan was Consort, and things were kinder. She obviously very much wishes to be Queen, but the idea of Rowan being a bit of a big sister to her makes her feel nice. It’s a connection to Caora that she still has, even if she cannot ever actually meet her sister.

Some small part of her, though terrified, is morbidly fascinated by the power Rowan has. How they can both instill bits of fear in others (this is not something Camellia will readily admit, even though it might show that she is more Unseelie than some others might believe).

She likes that, for all that Rowan might find her incredibly soft, Rowan is willing to work with her, take her under her wing, as it were (ha ha, Rowan’s an air archfey, ha ha, Emily makes really bad jokes). She likes learning everything she can from Rowan.

She likes that there is more to Rowan than meets the eye.

She likes the way Rowan dresses.

She likes that Rowan cares about Lacha deeply.

Holy Well:

(For a gif moodboard or an aesthetic of our muses.)

I hope it is okay - the aesthetic is forthcoming, because I am a perfectionist and have been busy, but I hope a delayed one is okay. :)
