DRST │ The Tongue of My Love Takes Many Forms

Summary: love language headcanons! what they have to offer for you and how to make their knees weak!

Fandom: Dr Stone

Characters: Francois, Kinro, Nanami Ryusui, Ishigami Senku, Shishio Tsukasa

Word Count: 904

Type: headcanons

Francois  

Giving: gift giving, acts of service

Well, it is a very well known fact that Francois is an excellent cook who loves to share their passion with others. They will make sure you get the most excellent of their pastries, and if you’re not a big fan of sweets, don’t worry – Francois will make sure to prepare some salty snacks for you. And if they hear you talking to anybody about craving any type of food, be sure you'll get it the next day for the adequate meal!

Receiving: acts of service, words of affirmation

Since Francois spends most of their time on cooking, they don’t have that much energy left to complete other chores. Make their bed, sweep the floor and leave a cup with water beside their bed and trust me that it won’t go unnoticed. Also, don’t forget to compliment the food that they make! Say a few nice words about it and tell how pretty Francois looks when they are focused, and watch as your partner turns all flustered and red!

Kinro

Giving: acts of service, quality time

Just look at Kinro and tell me he won’t be doing things you didn’t even ask him for, just to make your life easier. You can’t? Exactly. He will do anything that you have even the slightest problems with and more. Kinro also loves when the two of you can find some time in your busy schedules just to waste by going on a walk or laying in tall grass, talking about everything and nothing.

Receiving: physical touch, quality time

Kinro is not the best at starting any form of physical affection with his loved one. He’s a bit shy when it comes to this department. But it’s not like he doesn’t like it – in fact, it’s quite the opposite… Holding his hand, surprise hugging him from behind, peppering his face in kisses – it makes the butterflies in his stomach go crazy! Also, find some time to spend with him. Even 5 minutes will make Kinro the happiest man in the whole world!

Ryusui

Giving: words of affirmation, quality time

Oh, he will compliment everything about you. Especially things you’re insecure about. He may call everyone beautiful, but, in his eyes, you definitely take the trophy. Ryusui loves when you spend time with him while he’s working on his projects. He’s a bit clingy, and hates to be apart with the one he loves. So if your work requires you to be in a specific space, he’ll follow you around! He can draw a project of a ship even on a dusty floor if it means he can spend time with you!

Receiving: words of affirmation, quality time

Ryusui loves to be praised. Tell him that he’s done a good job. That he looks handsome. That he’s a good boy! Tell him every positive thought that comes to your mind when you see his snarky smile! Say that he’s the smartest! And spend time with him. That’s obvious after what I’ve written above. If you can complete your work by his side, he’ll insist that you stay with him. Even if you two will only be sitting in silence, doing your own stuff, he loves the aspect of you being around.

Senku

Giving: acts of service, words of affirmation

We’ve seen Senku doing things for the people he cares about to make their life better. He’s a person who wants to help everyone by nature. So it’s not a surprise when one day you bitch about a thing in your life that brings you inconvenience, and after a few days Senku gives you an invention that’ll make your problem disappear! He also gives you a bunch of words of affirmation. But don’t even think that they’re compliments. Senku always tells you that he’s only stating facts! 

Receiving: words of affirmation, quality time

Just as much as Senku adores the way your face turns red when he tells you compliments facts, his ears change their color red when you do the same to him! He knows that he’s doing a good job. He doesn’t need reassurance. But your words… are just so nice… it makes this nice warm feeling form in his chest! Senku has issues with overworking himself. So he’s always glad when you smack the back of his head, forcing him to take it easy and rest for a bit. Especially if it can be done in a nice company.

Tsukasa

Giving: acts of service, physical touch

It’s really hard not to give everyone acts of service. But just look at this precious boy! He wants the best for his loved ones! Of course he’ll do things you haven’t even asked him for, just so you don’t have to worry about them! He’s also a big fan of your touch. Stroking your face lovingly with his thumb, kissing your forehead before sleep! He always wraps his arm around your waist or holds your hand when you’re in a crowd, so that he’s sure you’re by his side.

Receiving: physical touch, words of affirmation

Do the same with Tsukasa! Treat him like a babygirl that he truly is! Wrap your arm around his waist, and if you’re strong enough, keep him on your knees when you talk about your days! Call him your pretty boy! Brush his hair and put flowers in it! Make him feel like a prince! He feels stupid because of this, but he loves when you baby him like that! Ofc it’s only for you to see.

Hello! For the dr stone event could we get the most likely to stop working when receiving an unexpected kiss on the cheek from their crush?

Thank you!

Dr. Stone Characters Most Likely To…

Stop Functioning When Receiving a Kiss on the Cheek

Ginro. Okay so he’d probably ask for it, but still never see it coming. He stops functioning. Like falls on his face if you ACTUALLY kiss his cheek. He tries to walk off to brag, and legitimately trips and eats shit.

Chrome. A blushing mess. Can’t talk. He’s just staring at you now. Eventually, he tries to talk, but he stutters a bit as he asks you what that was for.

Kinro. Doesn’t know what to do with himself. Did you just kiss him…? It was the cheek, but still. He’s never really had anybody do that so… he’s blushing and doesn’t know what to say.

Senku. He’d stop dead in his tracks. And that might not be because he’s nervous. Could be. If he likes you, his face loses color and he’s just stunned. If he doesn’t like you, his face loses color too, but he immediately starts complaining.

Francois. They’re shocked. They hardly ever break their professional butler persona (persona? Nah, just their lifestyle atp) but this one time… they blush a bright red. If they return the feelings, they might just sneakily give you a kiss on your cheek too once they calm down.

Tsukasa. Hear me out. He’s touch starved. He’s not one to lose his cool though, but admittedly, he stumbles a bit. He doesn’t show it too much, but he’s nervous.

Gen Asagiri. Ah yes, so great at acting and pretending, yet he fails miserably to act cool. His cheeks go red for a moment, but he pulls himself together fairly quickly to tease you.

Hyoga. He’s shocked, but he doesn’t show it at all. Maybe his cheeks get a little pink, but he does not fumble. He probably asks you what you did that for, depending on who you are, it may be laced with danger or may not.

Ryusui. He might just admittedly pull you into a full blown kiss tbh. He’d tell you he loves you. He’s not scared. And he’s not lying either.

[nathiyy]

this is not proofread I am still learning, it's kind of a rushed oneshot im sorry😔😔

also follow my twt if you want:3 @natalilie_ie

Francois isn't a type of person to be in romantic things, to even have romantic feelings of that matter, but in no doubt they've got quite the skills capable to impress anyone, you're no exception.

They've noticed, for sure have, about your admiration for them, this isn't a first time they've encountered something like this, but for you to have romantic admiration? That would be a first time in their book, but they never seemed to be bothered by it.

In fact they also seemed to warm up aswell, they've felt something everytime you smile softly at them, talked to them, by now they're already well acquainted with complements but yours would always tug some strings to their heart.

They knew they also felt something but was unsure how to react with it, they've already addressed this to Ryusui and the man was ecstatic about the information and was very supportive about it aswell, saying they'll help if something goes wrong.

The day went as usual, working and working, but you always manage to make time to spend with Francois, they were just making some bread to supply for the journey with you just sitting idly on the table.

That day you decided to tell.

"Francois, can I tell you something?" You asked shyly as you look down quite embarrassed on what to say

They we're just done getting the baked goods out on the oven for them to cool off.

"What's the matter Master Y/N?"

They stood waiting for an answer, as you get more redder by the second before calming your composure.

"I-I like- no I love you! I love you alot... I don't know how to say it..."

You start to ramble more and more as you get embarrassed by what you said when it got abruptly stopped by a piece of bread being shoved to your mouth.

"May I speak my answer to that?" They smiled looking at you while you hurriedly nodded. They smiled, a flush of red came to their cheeks aswell.

"Don't be embarrassed Master Y/N, I love you too."

-Francois x gn!reader-

This might be a bit long!

Not a request. My original work! Love this butler so dearly:)

~

It was a regular day in the kingdom of science.

Except- not really.

In fact, today was quite special.

Today was the day that…

Actually, before that, let’s backtrack a bit.

You were revived by Tsukasa. He revived you for your well known kindness for others, considering you were a missionary that traveled to hurting countries around the world and helped them tremendously, at least before that dreaded green light turned you to stone when you were visiting Japan to teach English.

When you awoke from your stone slumber, you met the eyes of the well known long haired man.

He thought your Mother Teresa type personality would fit perfectly in his kingdom, but unfortunately he thought wrong.

You despised his idea. Only reviving the young? Practically killing the old? What a joke!

You didn’t want to pretend to go along with him. You stared at him with furrowed brows and simply stated,

“I don’t agree with you Tsukasa.

I am sorry.

I must leave now.”

Before he could react, you bolted out of the cave you two were conversing in, and ran into the woods.

The muscle-head guards didn’t think anything of it, but when Tsukasa walked out of cave with a conflicted look on his face, they knew something was up.

You ran. And ran, and ran, and ran.

You didn’t have any idea where you were going.

Your legs were going to give out any second.

You passed many people who have been turned to stone, even children and elders, which made you feel even more uneasy.

Everything is settling in now.

You’re in a stone world.

You feel lightheaded.

“Am I about to..?”

*flop*

…

“Woah.. look! Suika found someone on the ground!”

“Someone on the ground..? Oh. We must carry them back at once. Would you get Taiju please, Suika?”

“Of course Francois! I can be useful!”

…

I feel my eyes get less and less heavy as I slowly open eyes, taking in the wild green and white haired boy looking down at me with a puzzled expression.

“Yo,”

I copy his expression.

“Who are you? Where am I?”

“Call me Senku. You are currently in a makeshift infirmary at the kingdom of science. Might I ask how you got depetrified?”

“Petrified..? Ohh.. a man named Tsukasa freed me from the stone.”

His brows furrow and he nods in understanding. “You ran away, didn’t you?”

I look away. “Yes, that’s correct.”

Suddenly, two figures walk into sight.

A small feminine figure, likely a small child, with a melon husk on her head, walks up to your ‘bed’.

“Hello!! Senku here made sure you aren’t dead! Me and Francois found you while looking in the forest for ingredients!”

I give the girl a smile and thank her. I turn my head to a petite person with large blond curls standing behind her with a wooden plate with some type of bread on it.

“Please except this food. You must be hungry, I hope you enjoy it.”

The person smiles softly and places the plate in my hands as I sit up from my laying position.

“This is too much. How could I ever thank you all for this? You could’ve just left me in the woods. Id wake eventually.”

“That wouldn’t be right at all!” The little girl exclaims. “You looked terrible out there! We couldn’t just leave you, what if wild animals found you?” She states sadly.

“Oh, I guess I didn’t realize that.. still, this is probably the nicest thing anyone has done for me. Is there anything I can help you guys with? You aren’t with Tsukasa, right?”

“Hah, as if. In fact we’re the opposite. Instead of selective people, we’re reviving the whole world. 10 billion percent.” Senku states proudly with a grin.

“That’s wonderful. I’ll help in anyway I can. I think I’m ready to walk around and stuff. Got any stuff for me to do?”

“Ooh! You could help me and Francois collect ingredients! It’s really fun, right?” She turns her head to the blond person, who I now know is Francois. “Of course it’s fun. Then we can make the dish that master Ryusui has requested of me.”

They turn to me, a soft smile on their face. “Well, would you? Oh, and might I ask for your name?” They say as they bow with a hand on their chest.

I gasp at the formality and answer right away embarrassed.“Of course I’ll help. Oh! And I’m (name).”

…

As the months went by, I learnt that this ‘kingdom of science’ was in the midst of building a huge boat that would sail to where the petrification originated.

I met many kind people, Kinro, Chrome, Gen, Ryusui, and so on.

I helped in anyway I can, but I found myself drifting to helping Francois more often then not.

Anything they mentioned, or even if I saw them working on something I asked to help. They always excepted warmly, and I think I might even be a decent cook now!

Though, the more time I spent with the butler, the more a fuzzy feeling in my chest bloomed. It was like the feeling when I saw the faces of the families I’ve helped when their house gets rebuilt, or their child gets saved from a deadly virus, but it’s.. stronger. And different.

It used to just happen when they looked at me with their deep blue eyes and told me thank you for my help. Or when they would hold my elbows helping stir something correctly. But recently, it’s been happening whenever I look at them. Even the slightest glance in their direction makes my heart do flips.

I asked Ruri about this and she simply told me that I must have deep appreciation and admiration for Francois. I told her that of course I do, but I thought it might be something else.

“Like what? Do you maybe see Francois in a romantic sort a view possibly?”

I put my hands on my cheeks and look down at my knees. My face starts to turn warm and Ruri notices the tips of my ears turning red. She smiles warmly. “Guess I guessed right!” She chuckles at my flustered state.

So that’s it.. I like Francois romantically. I really do, don’t I?

It’s not they’d ever feel the same. They have duties to do, A master to serve, things more important then a lover.

But, I can’t keep feeling bottled up forever. They’d spill out eventually. That’s why I just need to get it off my chest. I need to tell Francois I love them.

…

That’s why today’s the day. The day I tell Francois that I love them with every fiber of my being. No problem, right? Yeah, no. I’m standing in front of the petite butler shaking in my boots like an idiot with my face all red.

“My dear (name), is something the matter? You said you wished to inform me of something?” Francois looks at me with those pretty eyes of theirs with a concerned expression.

It’s now or never.

“Francois, uhm.. you see..”

“Yes (name)? Whatever is it?”

“Well.. I guess the best way to frase this is, well.. I..

I love you, Francois.”

“I feel the same.”

“Now I know you don’t think of me that way, but I just wanted to- wait what?”

“I said, I feel the same way, (name).” Their eyes close as I see a hue spread across their cheeks, becoming almost as red as me at this point in time.

“Wait, really? You feel the same? You..”

“I love you (name). I have for quite awhile now.” They open their eyes and meet mine. “I hope.. I hope you would like to be my significant other, if that would be alright with you, my dear (name).” They look away in embarrassment, an unusual sight for the butler. I nod my head and wrap my arms around them.

When I head them gasp, I loosen the grip around them a bit. “Is this okay?” I ask worried that I made them uncomfortable.

“Of course. I’ve wanted to bring you in to an embrace for awhile now. This makes me ever so happy, my dear.” They pull me closer.

“YESSSSSSSS! WOOOOOOOOOOOO! FINALLY!” I hear a camera snap as Ryusui’s booming voice hits my ears. Francois looks as startled as I do, and later I learn that all of the kingdom of science was watching us and waiting for that perfect moment to catch a photo of a ‘cute moment’ as Ruri says.

Let’s just say that picture makes Francois feel more happy then they ever have before when they see it.

Julius Novachrono As Grey/Azure Deer Vice-captain

HEADCANONS -SFWJulius Novachrono As Grey Deer Vice-captain

HEADCANONS -SFW 

As you can see in the image, Julius was in his 20s.

His comrades always complimented him on what an exemplary young model he was for them.

The girls at the base (especially the young and new members) simped for him. They saw him as husband material since he is a powerful mage and nobleman. On top of that, he is good looking, tall and kind. He has the whole package. Has a fanclub 🙌

Julius as vice-captain is very friendly and strong. He is always exited to see the new members magic

He’s been quite busy with his role of vice captain but that didnt stop him from enjoying his free time

He gets along with everyone. His best friend in the grey deer is Elger they both are OBSESSED with magic and never stop talking about it.. omggg

As Julius stated in ep 94 during the flashback, he joined the magic knights to find his life purpose so thats what he’s been doing..

One day he met Zara and he was impressed. After that they both started to hang out quite a bit, sometimes during missions or weekends. One day, Zara took him to a restaurant in the Common Realm at Kikka. He felt a little embarrassed since he knew that Julius was a noble and thought he’d be disgusted to eat commoners food. Julius, on the other hand, reasured him that he enjoys the food and that he had tried a few restaurants within the Common Realm and that they dont disappoint. 

Even though the girls all crushed on him, Julius was a total mystery to them. They were always wondering if he had a girlfriend (aka Y/N 👀 ) or something since he always seemed to be somewhere else on the weekends. (looking for magic and doing missions 😌 )

His comrade David (yes the guy from the golden dawn, just for reference) set up a mixter and he had invited Julius and Elger, it turned out bad... (like and follow if you want me to write this scenario 👀 )

Chapter 15: Mercy, Mercy

Summary:  Aika and Evan are gone for an indefinite period so the story turns to Julius. A ghost from the past and painful memories for the failed protagonist and a new chapter in his life.

Notes: 

- Manga and Movie Spoilers from here on out! - 5k words - We’re going to touch more on Ellie’s power later but you do get to see some of it here. - Relationships are really important in this fic. Not only Aika and Julius’s but the other characters' relationship to them and others as well. - Read endnotes for more info and commentary

Tagging: @t-f-t @funky-sea-cryptid @loosesodamarble @lyranova @thoughtfullyrainynightmare

“Then what about her grimoire?” Julius moved his gaze to Ellie’s grimoire pouch but it was not there.

“Where’s my grimoire?!”

“Gods don’t need grimoires, Ellie,” Arthur said wryly as he plopped down in an armchair. “You’re a part of The Pantheon now, and you draw your power from all your fellow Gods.”

“I—Okay…” What? She sighed deeply, begging the tears to stay away. She needed some private time to come to terms with all this. “I did not ask for this…”

“We know you didn’t.” Arthur grinned. “No one asks for Godhood. You achieve it or in your case, stumble upon it. I’m sure Aika saw this coming since she met you. You were, after all, enlightened since you were born, right?”

“Yeah,” she answered meekly. She was born with eyes that burned her mother, father and midwives out of existence. She lived her life blindfolded until Miss Aika reached a hand out to her like a lifeline and taught her how to bring her strange powers under control.

Ellie didn’t like all the attention that the room was giving her. Most of them she doesn’t even know. And Miss Aika was not here to guide her through this. No one would know more about divinity than her or her master.

“That’s why she took you along, you know?”

“What?” She looked up at him. What was he saying?

“What are you implying?” Jayce growled beside her.

“I’m not implying anything! I’m saying that she only gives the time of day to people who she sees potential in, or has business with.”

“Oh, I’m sorry, but not everyone has a wrinkled prune for a heart. She actually likes the people she spends most of her day with. She has friends.” Jayce cocked his head as he stuffed his hands in his pockets in a blatantly arrogant pose. Julius, Jien, Fuegoleon and Dorothy shared a look crossed between amusement and concern. “Something you clearly don’t have even after thousands of years!”

Arthur leapt out of his seat and Jayce flinched when he closed the distance and smiled down at him, gleeful.

“Ah, but that’s where you are wrong.”

“I’m the keeper of Aika’s secrets,” he turned to look at Julius dead in the eyes. “And she’s mine.”

Julius stared back impassively, tamping the ugly jealousy that was welling up in him.

“Look at me,” Jayce bared his teeth in a mocking grin. “Do. I. Give. A. Shit.”

Ellie threw up some portals where fists flew.

“Stop it!” She turned to Jayce. “Have some respect for your elders! He’s not wrong!”

“But—”

“Zip it.”

She pointed an accusing finger at Arthur.

“And you! Responding to schoolyard taunts is beneath you,” she snarled. He pursed his lips and looked away. “People would be nicer to you if you didn’t portray the most benign things so negatively!”

Arthur clicked his tongue but said nothing.

“Okay, well, if we’re done talking, I need to take you to Aika’s old Temple. The High Priest is waiting for you.”

“Wh—”

“No.” Jayce placed himself between Ellie and Arthur. “You are not taking her away too.” He hung his head, fists shaking by his sides.

“Too?”

He exploded on Arthur.

“Aika and Evan are gone! And you didn’t even realise because your head is so far up your ass, you self-serving prick!”

“I’m going to ignore the last half of what you said.” Arthur narrowed his eyes. “But what do you mean they’re gone?”

“Evan’s dead, and Miss Aika had gone berserk so she activated her Shadowed Star spell which Ellie had to transport using impossible means which is why you are here in the first place!”

“Evan is dead?” Arthur whispered, eyes widening. “But Aika brought him back, right?”

“Yeah, but it’s not going to matter because,” Tears fell as he looked up at the older man. “Because what use is it to be alive when you can’t feel happiness, grief, anger, love, all the things that make us alive. He’s going to wake up in a month, a shell of what he is.” He buried his face in his hands. “Why the fuck do you care anyways?”

“Why do I care about Aika’s oldest child, my daughter’s beloved brother, a young man whom I have known way longer than you have?” Arthur grit out. “Where is he?”

Julius cleared his throat. This was going too far in front of people who are completely unaware of what they are even talking about.

“This discussion is getting out of hand. Evan is in the infirmary. Please continue there.” Julius all but glared at them in disappointment. His tone made no room for argument so Ellie made a portal and before she walked through it after Jayce and Arthur, she locked eyes with Julius, looking for something, permission or assurance, he wasn’t sure. His expression softened and he nodded curtly. She pursed her lips and frowned as she walked away. Julius had a sneaking suspicion as to why.

It was 2 a.m.

“What the hell just happened.”

Julius stayed quiet as discussion exploded along with his head. It felt like there was a raging storm inside but he kept calm and restored the room back to its previous state and walked over to the desk where his gifts were. He plucked the gold ring Aika left him out of its box and slid it down his pinky finger as he stared at the wisteria trees glowing outside the giant arched window that the long desk faced. He shuddered as a warmth washed over him, and hugged him like a weighted blanket. 

Julius closed his eyes and for a moment, pretended it was Aika hugging him from behind. He smiled at the fantasy but the voices behind him were only getting louder.

“The Pantheon? Does that mean she is one of—”

“Who is she anyway? I haven’t seen her around before.”

“Agreed. I would remember a dark-skinned foreigner like her.”

He turned around as he took off his cloak. It seemed like he didn’t need this giant blanket for warmth anymore.

“Enough.”

A word alone brought the room to silence in an instant.

“It was unfortunate that you all had to witness Miss Aika’s troubles throughout the day but please be professional. Go home, get some rest, write a report if you can’t sleep. Prepare for the Captain’s meeting tomorrow. We’ll discuss everything then.”

Everyone quietly mumbled “goodnights” and “goodbyes” as they left. Marx and Jien gave him worried looks but understood that he wanted to be left alone with his thoughts right now. They needed time to reflect on the day too.

Julius laid back on the armchair and laced his fingers on his lap, closing his eyes with a sigh.

What a long day.

A deep laugh echoed in his head as his stomach fell.

An apparition of his mirror image sat in the sofa in front of him, legs crossed in an arrogant pose and a bemused smile. The man was his twin, looked exactly like him except for his dark hair, deep as the night sky.

“Lucius.”

“I have to applaud your restraint, Julius.”

The memories came roaring back, a migraine pounding in tandem with each glimpse and tidbit of information.

A childhood in a cold country, two brothers and a sister who were ever so relieved to see him. His real family, not the fake one his brother masterminded in Clover Kingdom. The grief, the pain, the guilt, the shame. Blood dripping down his chin and a half eaten heart in his hands. Visions of the world ending, a cataclysm of his own design. Monsters encased in crystal. The wheelchair.

Lucius kept talking.

“There is no greater story than your life,” he laughed. “And I have enjoyed watching every single moment of it. You definitely keep it interesting.”

The fear, the pain. And a reprieve. Watching swordsmanship practice. An eager friend with a beautiful smile. The only person ever brave enough to befriend Lucius. Someone his siblings looked up to with awe and affection in their eyes. The only touch Lucius didn’t flinch at as she picked him up and ran. Explosions that left bells ringing. A pact made from mercy and a new lease on life.

“You and I have disagreed on some things, but I have never taken you for a fool—”

“She knows.”

Lucius dropped his head to the side.

“Knows what?”

“Our father was her mentor. She studied at the War College. She babysat our siblings for free and our father favoured her,” Julius’s voice rose with each word in panic. “Lucius put your arrogance aside and remember! The Oath she made with Arthur broke that made people forget that she ever used Time Magic but you were so obsessed with the fact that she used Time Magic that the Oath made us forget her entirely. But Arthur and Aika never forgot as they were the ones that cast the magic. She knows about us, Lucius.”

“She—” Lucius' eyes widened.

“I desperately want to say she doesn’t remember because she has never seen me but she has always remarked how Zenon was ‘Mini-Lucius.’ She has an eye for appearances and a long memory.”

“In one of your conversations with her, she mentioned that she hasn’t been to Spade Kingdom since she had left. She hasn’t seen Zenon and she most definitely doesn’t remember us. She would have said something if she did.” Lucius touched his chin in thought. “Was it only the pact that was broken?”

“What do you mean?”

“You’ve never taken this tone of voice with me,” he scrutinised Julius. “I never allowed you to.”

Julius felt the hairs raise on the back of neck.

“I wouldn’t know if your spell is there or not because I’ve never felt it.” He glared at him coldly.

“That’s right. You wouldn’t.” Lucius only smiled. “I was just wondering because it would be a problem if my spell on our siblings also vanished.”

“Even if that did happen, you won’t be able to do anything about it.”

“After all these years, you’ve finally developed a rebellious streak.” Lucius stood up and placed his hands on Julius’s armrest, caging him. “I really do wonder where this confidence comes from. Is it from her?”

“You can’t even bring yourself to say her name,” Julius spat, his eyes glinting in anger.

“She’s not even worth mentioning.”

“Lies.” His heart was in his throat as he ran his mouth. “She just foiled your plans and it spells the end of you if she did this on purpose. And I can’t say she was your friend, but she meant something to you and you can’t reconcile with that and your delusions of grandeur.”

“Now where is this resistance coming from? This,” he grabbed Julius’s head, searching for his resolve so that he may squash it before it turns on him. “Determination.”

Julius faltered as Lucius poked around his head but he gathered his courage and grit his teeth.

“Is it, again, from her? You were feeling particularly inspired earlier in the dungeons.”

“Just because she has affected you so much when we were teens doesn’t mean the same for me. My determination comes from years of experience and rising above my station to become Wizard King.” Julius glared up at him. “Not trauma and obsession.”

He flinched and gasped when Lucius began choking him, that smug expression gone and his eyes wide in that all-so-familiar insanity.

“My, my,” he grit out between his teeth. “Where did you acquire that silver tongue of yours? You’re so quick to hurt your brother.”

Julius grabbed his wrists and gasped for air. Blood roared in ears as Lucius’s magic lashed out at him. He heard the muffled screams of souls he had consumed and Julius made a decision. Enough was enough.

He took them to the infirmary with the last of his strength and to his relief, Jayce was there. And so was Arthur and Ellie. It was two too many people but he was out of options and didn’t have space for “Plan B.” They all leapt to catch him as he fell to his knees and the moment they touched him, they felt an evil unlike any other. They stared at the warping silhouette of a demon, not unlike Aika earlier, who pressed on their hearts, as if directly  stepping on it to squash it.

“Seal…Him!” Julius gasped. Jayce set to work as Ellie held the dying king. Arthur used all of his strength to pry this poltergeist’s arms away, growling as it barely budged.

Ellie took this moment to whisper into Julius’s ear.

“You cannot keep this from her. She will know.”

He turned his quivering head in question.

“You dare? You dare?!” Lucius’s garbled screams shook the room. “After all I’ve done for you?!”

Arthur reared his arm back and punched the apparition.

Lucius’s form went back to normal and looked at him in shock. How did he touch him?

“Anyone who claims to have done something for someone and then tries to choke them has probably done jack shit.”

Jayce’s makeshift seal shook and shook, threatening to break.

“Aim at his soul,” Ellie whispered to him as Julius rubbed his neck in her arms.

“I don’t know how to do that!”

“Yes, you do,” she said gently. “It is like sealing anything else.”

Arthur pinned Lucius to the floor and bared his fangs at him. He tried to fight back by reaching for the man’s soul but it was nowhere to be found.

“Whatchu lookin for?”

“How?”

“You live for over two thousand years, you’ll find a lot of things to do in your free time.”

“Jayce, go for the soul Arthur has grabbed.”

“Oh, gee, yeah let me suddenly learn Soul Magic right now so I can find it.”

“Ugh.” Ellie grabbed his hand and placed it on Julius’s chest. “Everyone has a soul. Meaning we all have an affinity for its magic.” Her eyes shimmered with her newfound powers, and she lent some of it to him.

“Look,” she commanded, and so he saw. He saw what made the king before him: the life, the memories, the atoms—

“That’s too much.” She reeled her power back with a wince. “Sorry. Still getting used to it.”

Jayce blinked quickly and then he saw what he needed to. Two souls crowded in one body, but one was going nuts, as if fighting back.

His magic locked in on it.

“Yes, that one.”

And it snapped into place.

Silence as Lucius disappeared.

“Did it work?” Jayce whispered.

“Yes.”

“Mmm.”

“How?” Jayce jumped with an embarrassing yell when Lucius reappeared in front of him.

“You,” Julius gasped for air. “You sealed his magic.”

“That’s what I am most familiar with so that’s what I did. I-I don’t know how to seal souls!”

“That’s okay,” Julius rasped as Arthur handed him a glass of water. He downed it in heavy gulps. “It was better that way.”

“Why?” Ellie asked him. She had a strange glint in her eyes that made him look away for some reason.

“Because he had granted me mercy not once, but twice. Even when I didn’t ask for it. If you had sealed his soul, he would’ve been stuck in purgatory with nothing to see and no one to talk to.” He looked up at Lucius’s openly shocked face. “He may be a bit prickly, but he’s still my brother.”

“First thing,” Arthur raised his hands. “You have a brother? Second, him choking you is him being ‘a bit prickly?’”

“That soft heart of yours will be the end of you,” Lucius hissed as everyone stood up.

“Yeah, yeah. Okay.” Jayce caught Julius as he nearly fell. “How can all of you see him?”

“Godhood.”

“I sealed him so…”

“I grabbed onto his soul in case he acts up.”

“Godhood,” Lucius scoffed. “How ridiculous.” He gasped when a force grabbed him and turned him around to face Ellie.

“Careful,” she warned lightly. “It won’t be so ridiculous when I erase you out of existence.”

“How do you know what to do with your powers?”

“Instinct. It comes with her Awakening,” Arthur explained quietly.

“Please don’t do anything to him,” Julius pleaded.

“I wasn’t going to. If I wanted to, I would’ve when you first fell to your knees but I wanted to hear the story before I did.” Lucius closed his eyes when she tried to force him to look at her. Ellie let him go and he dropped to his knees. “I simply wanted to remind him of his place.” She picked him up by the collar. “You are a mere apparition now with your magic sealed. Try to hurt Sir Julius who is dear to Miss Aika and even the last vestiges of your ambitions and your memory would be wiped from reality.”

Silence again.

“That was hot,” Jayce whispered and Julius stared at Ellie in shock.

“It looks like she learned from the best, isn’t that right?”

“I’ve never seen you like that.”

“It’s because you’ve never seen me on solo missions with Miss Aika.” Jayce seemed disappointed at that. What Jayce also doesn’t know was that she had been faking it. It took all of her strength to keep her voice from shaking. Arthur had just calmed her down earlier but Gods she was just acting on her protective instinct. That is all.

“Er, thank you. Ellie, was it?”

“Yes,” she smiled. Julius bowed his head.

“Thank you, Ellie.”

“We have to get going. We’ve already stayed for too long.”

“Wait—”

“It’s okay, Jayce. I’ll be back as soon as I figure things out. You know how to take care of Miss Aika’s paperwork and whatnot, right?”

“Yeah…”

“Then you got this.” She laid a hand on his shoulder and leaned it to kiss his cheek. “You are more like her than anyone,” she whispered as she pulled back. “If anyone can do it, it’s you.”

Jayce’s jaw fell as she walked away. Do what?

“I’ll keep her safe and sound. Don’t worry,” Arthur smiled wearily and turned to Julius. “Take care of yourself. We’ll talk about your so-called ‘brother’ next time I see you.”

They disappeared together in a flash of light, leaving some residual magic in their wake.

Jayce led the quiet Julius to a chair next to Evan’s bed and brought him another glass of water as he eyed Lucius’s floating form warily.

“Let’s go to sleep, Sir.”

He nodded but just barely and stood up, lost in thought.

“Are you going to be okay?” He asked as he walked towards the door. Jayce faltered but in a stuttered breath,

“I will be.”

“Will you be okay, Sir?”

He paused and looked down at his feet. The silence stretched for a minute before Julius drew his shoulders back and smiled at Jayce.

“I will be,” he echoed.

 Julius woke up to someone trying to break down his bedroom door.

“Sir! You are going to be late to your meeting!”

Oh, it was just Marx. He stumbled into the room as the doors flew open.

“I’m sorry, Marx,” he yawned as he rubbed his eyes.

“Don’t be sorry, Sir!” He exclaimed as he threw the closet door open. “I already ordered breakfast to the conference room for everyone. All the Captain's secretaries informed me that no one ate so you won’t be the odd one out.”

Julius jogged into the bathroom with half-formed thoughts and did a 3 minute version of his morning routine, which was the whole routine sped up to 3 minutes with the help of Time Magic so he walked out looking fresh as ever.

When Marx looked at him, he paused with a slight frown. Apparently he doesn’t look as fresh.

He helped Julius into the first layer of his clothes with the shirt and pants and when he tried to fit the brown robe over him, Julius stopped him.

“That’s no longer needed, just get me a standard open cloak.”

“You don’t have a Wizard King version of the open faced one, Sir…”

“Order one then.” Julius walked to his bedside table and slid the gold ring down his pinky and sighed as warmth enveloped him.

“Yes, Sir,” Marx said as he offered him a plain red robe. Julius moved to leave as he threw the robe on him, thinking about how quiet Lucius had been since last night. But he was stopped as Marx tugged at his sleeve. He turned around in question and Marx simply just pursed his lips and dragged him to the vanity. When Julius was forcefully sat down, he saw the problem in the mirror, he understood why his assistant looked like he was constipated.

Julius had bags under his eyes, dark enough to put a raccoon to shame. He did not have any energy left to use magic to elongate the time he slept, hence the bags.

Marx sifted through the drawers looking for something and pulled out a tube of makeup and powder that was surprisingly his shade.

“I ordered stage makeup but also the everyday one just in case,” Marx muttered to himself. “Knew it would come in use.” He showed the tube to Julius. “This is a concealer.” He began applying and blending it under Julius’s eyes. “And the powder is setting powder.”

Julius just sat still as Marx fussed over him as one thing became apparent: Marx really cared about him. He makes sure he eats breakfast, he stresses over his work, he cares that he looks good to the people. He really cares about him. He thought back to last night.

The way Jayce, Ellie and Arthur didn’t even hesitate to help him and ensure his safety just because he meant something to Aika. He wondered if Aika would also help Marx if he needed it because he meant a lot to Julius.

He wondered if Marx knew he meant a lot to him.

His eyes fluttered as Marx brushed the excess powder away.

“Don’t bother walking to the room, Sir. Just teleport.” He stepped back as Julius got out of his seat. “I have your agenda set in your seat and—” He nearly fell back as Julius hugged him.

“I hope you know how grateful I am for you, Marx.”

“Sir, I—”

“You mean a lot to me.” The younger man’s throat closed up all of a sudden. When was the last time he heard that? Heck, has anyone ever told him that at all?

“All your hard work that you put into me, I know you stress over me so much, but it’s never wasted.”

Julius pulled back and smiled warmly. Marx blushed at the emotion on the older man’s face.

“Keep up the good work.” He laid his hand on his head and he was gone before Marx could get a word in.

Julius had praised him before but not like this. This was more of an emotional confession than praise. Marx let a tear fall as he blinked. He began to worry even more now. Why did it sound like a deathbed confession? Can’t be, because Julius’s story has just started. He won’t let it end yet.

Julius sat in his throne-like chair at the head of the table, staring at the omelette in front of him.

He was early for the first time in forever.

“What are you going to do now?” He asked Lucius who stood by the window, looking out at the wisteria trees.

“Watch you, I suppose. I can’t do much when you have such fierce protectors.”

“I don’t believe you’ll just give up.”

He stayed quiet.

“Did you really spare me like I spared you?”

Julius shrugged, opening the folder Marx set aside for him.

“This soft heart of mine is the reason why you’re alive today. But I’ll tell you what? That’s a lie.” He let his head rest against the chair. “I know you wish you were dead rather than be trapped with nothing to do for the rest of our lives but that's exactly why I spared you.” Lucius stared at him in shock but he continued.

”You erased the memories of our pact, the reason why you spared me. You erased my conviction. If I had known, I would’ve acted quicker, I would’ve worked harder but no.” Julius gripped the armrests as anger like never before raged beneath the surface of his skin. “You stacked the odds against me. I never knew the stakes. Now you will get to watch me as a powerless ghost. You will get to watch me fall in love, succeed in our dream without the bloodshed you desperately wanted, and watch me be happy. You took my anger, but now I have it back. I will prove you wrong.”

Knock, knock.

Julius took a deep breath and counted to 10.

“Come in.”

The new Captains filtered in and split off in a ceremonial fashion to stand behind their respected seats. Julius nodded and they all sat.

“Welcome, Captains,” he began, making eye contact with each and every single one of them. The stasis spell over their food broke. “Please dig in while I ramble,” he joked, motioning to their plates. “We will have meetings all week because we have a lot of work to get done. But afterwards, we will have a meeting weekly and sometimes it may be as short as an hour or as long as a day. Plan as if it will take up the entire day.”

“Straying from the agenda you have in front of you, I have to let you know that there was an incident or two yesterday and a report could not be sent to all your offices in time. Captains Dorothy, Fuegoleon and Jien were present when it happened. You three can take this initiative on this.”

They took turns explaining what happened as Julius sat back and ate slowly, quietly listening. One thing that intrigued him in the oral report and the subsequent discussion was that they never mentioned the incident with Aika and Ellie. Perhaps that was for the best.

“Who is Aika Tolliver?” Charlotte, the Captain of the Blue Roses asked, directing the question at Julius directly but he seemed to be lost in his thoughts.

“Sir?” Fuegoleon called out a little louder.

“Julius.” He looked up when Jien called him by name.

“Ah, sorry.” He wiped his mouth with a cloth. “Was the question about Miss Aika?”

Everyone except Nozel, the Captain of the Silver Eagles nodded.

“She was a consultant for the previous Wizard King and is going to be one for me. Miss Aika usually prefers to work in the shadows but decided to be public recently. She is an excellent strategist, fighter, and knowledgeable about all sorts of magic and magic techniques. She was born and brought up here in Clover Kingdom but lived most of her life overseas.”

The Captains who didn’t know about Aika before erupted in silent awe.

“She left the continent? People who leave usually don’t come back.”

“Ke, was it too good for them that they can’t come back? At least she did, I guess.”

“She sounds a bit familiar to me.”

“She is the owner of the merchant and information guild, Eidolon, here in the capital. So I’m not surprised you know, Gueldre.”

“Mmhph,” Julius finished the last bite of his meal. “If that is all, Captain Sal of the Royal Guards is investigating the two assassins. If you wish to work on the investigation, talk to him. Let’s get onto the next piece on the agenda.”

“We don’t know what the next piece is because it only says ‘Surprise!’”

Julius laughed.

“That is because I wanted to let you all know, we will be having two new Magic Knight squads!”

The room blew up in discussion as they all bombarded him with questions. Jien looked utterly betrayed. He mouthed “sorry” and then answered each question one by one.

After what felt like an hour of answering questions, Julius gathered his papers and stood up to dismiss them but then, Marx’s screen popped up in front of his face, with a dire expression that he knew would foil any of his plans to relax.

“Sir! I have some news! The Spade Kingdom has retreated all its troops and our spies say that the Zogratis siblings have stepped down and pledged a Magic Oath of fealty to Queen Ciel of Spade.”

That was very quick.

The room exploded once again.

As Marx’s screen turned around to face the Captains and tell them again and again that he doesn’t know every detail yet, Julius only looked at the one person that mattered.

Lucius looked furious.

And so it begins.

Hey Lyra! For your autumn event may I request sweaters with reader x Marx, please? 🥺💞

Melissaa!! Of course you can, and I hope you enjoy! I probably should have posted this on his birthday (October 21st) but I decided to go ahead and post it now hehe, also I’m sorry it’s so short 😭!

Word Count: 699

Warnings: None

Marx shivered as he walked out of the castle, fall was certainly on its way. The days were getting shorter, the weather was getting colder, and the leaves on the tree’s were beginning to change and fall. He didn’t like nor hate fall, but it always seemed to creep up on him when he least expected it.

He shivered again as he quickly ran to the home he shared with Y/N, he had a feeling they would have a fire going already since fall was their favorite time of year.

He quickly walked inside their home and, as he expected, they had a fire going. He almost chuckled, it wasn’t quite cold enough for a fire, but he still appreciated it as it kept the chill out of the house.

“ Oh you’re back!” Y/N exclaimed happily as they came out of the kitchen, Marx smiled as he placed his cloak onto the rack beside the door.

“ I am, it sure did get chilly outside.” He muttered as he shivered one last time before sitting down beside the fire. Y/N nodded before they came and sat down beside him.

“ It did, which is why I said you should take a sweater or thicker cloak with you.” Y/N lightly scolded with a laugh as Marx pouted a bit.

“ But it was warm during the day.” He mumbled which caused Y/N to laugh more, he looked like a child who had just been scolded by their parents. Y/N then stood up, walked over to the closet, and pulled something out before walking back towards him.

Marx frowned, it was a small rectangular box. It was a pale blue with a dark blue ribbon tied around it. Y/N handed it to him with a bright smile on their face.

“ Happy Birthday!” They said excitedly, Marx blinked in surprise. He didn’t realize it was his birthday? He looked at the clock, it had just turned midnight. Marx chuckled before taking the box into his hands gently.

Technically, it was his birthday since it was midnight.

“ Thank you Y/N.” Marx said with a small smile, he really hadn’t expected anyone to remember his birthday, let alone get him a present. He was trying to keep his emotions in check, but Y/N could tell he was touched.

“ Hurry up and open it!” Y/N urged, Marx couldn’t help but chuckle. The last time he saw them this excited was on their anniversary.

Marx gently pulled the ribbon and let it fall softly onto the floor, he pulled the lid off the box and a bright, amused smile crept onto his face.

Inside was a light blue and white sweater, if he was being honest the blue almost matched his hair. Marx looked up to see that Y/N had disappeared, he sat alone for one or two minutes but when Y/N returned his eyes widened in surprise.

Y/N had a matching sweater!

“ Ta-Da! Happy birthday!” They exclaimed as they showed off their sweater, Marx’s mouth fell open and he just stared at them.

“ M-Marx? Are you okay?” Y/N asked nervously as they sat back down, Marx suddenly began to laugh loudly which made Y/N pout. “ What’s so funny?” They muttered as they looked away.

But Marx didn’t stop laughing, not for a few minutes. But he leaned forward and grabbed Y/N’s hands and gave them a small squeeze. The matching sweaters were dorky yet very cute, much like Y/N was.

“ I love it.” Marx told them as his laughter died down, but Y/N was still pouting. “ I’m serious, this is probably the best present I’ve ever received.” He added, which made their pout go away.

“ Really?”

“ Really!” Marx said happily before he leaned forward and he placed a gentle kiss onto their lips.

The next morning Marx walked into the castle wearing the sweater Y/N had given him, of course the Captains and others made fun of him. But he didn’t care, because he loved it and it was a present from Y/N. So throughout the whole day Marx walked around wearing it like a symbol of pride.

Thank you all so much for reading and I hope you all have a good day 🥰!

Prompt: Domestic feels Pairing: Marx x gn!reader Fanfic type: Oneshot Genre: Fluff Length: ~0.6k

You lived in the castle due to Marx’s position allowing for that, and enabling him to be more efficient with work. And it wasn’t all that bad.

You had your own quarters. Some privacy. But everything you could imagine was available. Within reason of course. Really the only downside was that the privacy was… only partial. Because staff would occasionally visit, do the laundry and so on. It was much more convenient for you too, but it was… something to get used to.

But you would, you were certain of it. And Marx was there with you throughout it all, having to adjust. In a way you had been adjusting to living together; a little adventure in everyday life.

A part of you had been worried about being tidy enough, because Marx would surely be careful about keeping the place clean. And he did. He was an organized person. But he wasn’t too strict about it.

“It’s nice that the place looks like someone lives here,” he told you once, as you asked about it.

You didn’t quite get what he meant with it, which he gathered from your frown, and so, he took a hold of your hand, pulling you with him to the couch. Even as you sat down, he kept a hold of your hand, as if trying to reassure you.

“I’ve… always been … always had a habit of putting things back in their places. And I don’t get a lot décor or anything else that makes this place feel like… home,” his eyes were to the side, and a faint blush decorated his cheeks as he spoke.

It was true, the place had been… rather barren before you moved in. There had been just the bare necessities, barely even memorabilia.

If you were honest, the apartment had seemed a little lonely. And beforehand you had thought about adding your things in, had made you feel more at home, simply because there had been something of yours in there. Your stamp, in a way.

“I might have been living here, but you made it feel like a home,” he continued.

His gaze begun climbing, slowly and carefully, as if he didn’t quite dare; but he wanted to. He wanted to dare look you in the eye with the heartfelt confession, and let you know, really let you know, that he loved you.

“I thought you thought that I was messy,” you admitted, averting your eyes, because you really had thought that you were too messy for him.

“Maybe a little,” he chuckled with a smile on his lips. “But it … makes this place more like home. It’s… nice to know that there’s someone waiting for me here,” his eyes gazed into yours, certain about what you he had said.

“It’s nice to have someone coming home to you,” you admitted, even if it felt clumsy; the statement. But the sentiment was genuine. It really was nice to have someone come home to you, share your life with you.

Companionship, care and affection, in a way that only a spouse could give you.

He gave your hands a squeeze, as if you seal the conversation and the sentiments shared. And you gave one right back, as silence settled into the room.

Nothing needed to be said, because there had been a testimony in that squeeze, in the silence; the way words weren’t needed. The quiet, yet resolute testimony of ‘I love you’.

And you did love him, just as he loved you in return.

[leewritestoomuch]

Saw the brand new post and here i am rating..

WHO IS THE BEST AT BAKING! <3

1. Francois, of course

2. Tsukasa somehow managed..

3. Gen! Watched the gang bake and decided to try

4. Chrome, his baking is always either burnt and undercooked..

5. Hyoga, Definitely couldn’t bother putting work onto baking.

6. Senku..like we all seen how he messed up the biscuits.

This is just my opinion, might send more of different topics! 🧇

Lemme add my opinions for a quick seconddd, and add on a few more characters. Hear me out: there is somebody worse than Senku lol.

Dr. Stone Characters, Best to Worst: BAKING

1. Like you said, Francois. No brainer. Francois can bake bread, cake, whatever with their eyes closed and hands tied behind their back (who tf knows how but they can, better believe it)

2. Hear me out, Ukyo. I think I’d put Ukyo here. I’m a sucker for the idea of him actually being a fairly good cook and baker. I know he mentions nothing of the sort, but he gives me domestic hubbie vibes, yk?

3. Tsukasa. Probably cooked for his sister when she was conscious. And occasionally, maybe baked. So I think he would have a decent handle on it.

4. Gen. Not bad, not great. The food comes out edible. He can bake cookies and cake and it tends to keep shape and be tasty. He’s also a quick learner, so he can easily learn from the others or Francois.

5. Ruri. I just think that she could do anything she puts her mind to. Gives me the vibes. I think she’s the type to make something for the first time and it comes out great. And her baking is rather consistent. Learned quickly from everybody else.

6. Chrome. The baking is starting to get… questionable. He can figure it out, but it’ll come out burnt about half the time. Always burnt on his first attempt, then undercooked the second. Trial and error. He’s working on it.

7. Hyoga. Just… doesn’t care. Why is he baking? It doesn’t turn out BAD, but he kind of just walked away for a while and came back when he felt like it. Somehow, they usually turn out edible, but not great. Unless, somebody else takes them out the oven for him (Francois)

8. Ryusui. Burns the food. Never learned how to cook… despite having a butler so good at it. If he knows anything, it’s from them, but that’s about it. He usually leaves it up to them.

9. Senku. Everybody is convinced he put inedible rocks into the oven instead of food.

10.Kohaku. The kitchen is now in flames. The bread is burnt beyond redemption or recognition. She did something to aggressively or something? Got impatient? Idk.

[nathiyy]

I didn't remember but I just somehow got inspo to make this, I'll probably just be making oneshots since I'm comfortable with it these oneshots will never be proofread

follow my twt if you want:3 @natalilie_ie

Ah yes, another day for the Kingdom of Science, sailing across the seas to find more materials for the space rocket mission Senku so proudly mentioned. You were just walking around the deck, admiring the calm blue ocean, the breeze hitting just right.

After the bar was established, everyone finally found some comfort while sailing, every night, everyone would have a grand time together, chatting, drinking, maybe playing poker, you've enjoyed the memories with them all.

This time you decided to sit this night out and just went out to the other side of the ship, muffled noises could be heard from them but it was fine. You watched silently and listened as the waves hit the ship, looking over the moon, your eyes glimmer, you then hear footsteps.

"Excuse my intrusion Master Y/N... May I ask why you're not with your acquaintances over at the bar?"

You just chuckle at the question, it's already obvious who it was. Looking at Francois with a smile you slowly look back at the moon.

"Just decided to take this night quietly y'know?"

You quickly look back and gazed at their eyes.

"You're eyes remind me of the blue ocean, like in the day they shine so vividly"

Francois simply smiles at your statement.

"I'm very flattered Master Y/N."

Chuckling, you lean on the fences.

"I mean it is very true though, you're an outstanding person Francois, you have an array of talents and knowledge, it's like what I said.."

You look at their eyes with a smile

"You're eyes shine so vividly.. Just like you."

They stood there, you've noticed how sometimes Francois expressions can be so.... Stoic.. but this time you noticed something genuine for once.

"Thank you, Master Y/N."

They smile, it was a cute one you thought

[onyxmilk]

Hello ! I was wondering if i could request some fluff for ryusui from Dr stone please?

I was thinking of something like how would he act when he gets embarassed? For instance, if his crush unexpectedly complimented him on something or if the crush got too close to him?

Thank you!

Ryusui Nanami x gn!Reader; “Flustered”

notes; i'm doing drabble because @oneordinaryautumn chose and this is also his mans. tw; Reader uses They/Them pronouns!, unedited wc; 0.1k

Ryusui wasn’t paying attention that much while helping out Senku with something, that’s why at dinner he was taken aback when [YourName] had complimented him for his efforts. They may have thought nothing of it, but Ryusui sure did and it kept him up at night too. After Francois had been excused for the night, Ryusui laid and stared at the ceiling of the hut for what seemed like hours just replaying that moment in his head. He groaned and covered his face, aggravated that he’s allowing someone to get him so flustered. He couldn’t remain mad for long though.

≫ love is a tower where all of us can live

pairing - Marx Francois x reader

fic type - angst to fluff

warnings - kissing, reader gets yelled at, slight teasing by julius

notes - sorry for not writing for a while, I have been busy, enjoy this fic though! (Also the title is a reference to "Christmas kids" by roar it is a vry good song)

The Wizard King of the clover kingdom, Julius Novachrono, recruited you as another advisor for him. He realized that Marx needs help with some of his duties, and you seemed like a worthy candidate to assist him.

You get along with Marx really well. Some days, though, he’s tired and not in a good mood. This is one of those days. You're also tired and forgetful, and you don’t remember to bring some papers to someone. Marx realized, and scolds you about it.

“I-I’m sorry-” you manage to say during the argument, but he continues to lecture you. Suddenly, you have this empty feeling. You feel like he hates you. During your break, after you deliver the papers, you head back down to your office and rest your head on the desk as you begin to cry over how bad your day was. After you stop crying, you sit at your desk quietly, pondering over how you got yelled at today. Then, you hear a knock at your door.

“Who is it?” you ask, trying to sound somewhat alright. Marx walks into your office and comes up to your desk. He notices the sad look in your eyes.

“Hey, Y/N, I… I’m sorry for yelling at you earlier, it really wasn’t a big mistake,” he sighs. Marx notices that you’re still sad.

“Do you… hate me…?” you ask, wanting closure.

“N-No! I don’t hate you, Y/N, I…” Marx’s sentence trails off as he blushes slightly. You notice, and he walks up next to where you’re sitting. He kneels down slightly.

“You’re really valuable to the kingdom… to Julius… and to me,” Marx admits, holding your hand in his. Your eyes shift from Marx’s hand to his face, noticing him smiling genuinely.

“Thank you…” you murmur, squeezing his hand lightly. You sit in silence for a moment as you look down at the floor, both of your faces blushing a little. Then, you feel a soft hand on your cheek, causing you to look back up at him.

“I really do care about you, Y/N,” Marx insists, looking into your eyes.

“I care about you too,” you sigh, noticing how sweetly he looks at you. Then, to your surprise, Marx pulls you in and hesitantly kisses you on the lips. Your eyes widen, freezing for a moment, but then you relax and kiss him back. Marx, surprised that you kissed back, leans into you a little bit. You pull him closer and wrap your arms around him lovingly. He smiles into the kiss and pets your hair gently. After a few moments, you pull away from the kiss. You bury your face into Marx’s shoulder as you sigh. You both sit in silence, relaxing in each other’s arms.

“Is it ok that I love you, and want to be with you?” Marx asks you, slightly worried about his love for you as a fellow advisor.

“Yeah… we can make this work… I love you so much, Marx,” You mumble, intertwining your fingers with his. He kisses you on the forehead adoringly, overjoyed over you loving him back.

“We should go out and get tea together when we have a day off,” you sigh, sweetly playing with his hair.

“That sounds nice, darling…” Marx chuckles, giving you another hug.

“I still have to wrap up with work, I’ll see you later, Y/N,” Marx walks out of your office with you and gives you one last kiss on the cheek before walking off. Julius was nearby and saw him kiss you. He walks up to you.

“You’re really getting along with him, huh, Y/N?” Julius teases, making you blush and pout.

“Yeah…” you admit, slightly embarrassed. Julius pats you on the head.

“Hey, it’s alright! You guys look cute together, anyway!” Julius chuckles lightheartedly. You smile as you realize how you fit in here. You finally have a partner, and a place to belong.
