Midnight runner || Gamer!Megumi Fushiguro
Summary:
Megumi's days were usually consumed with exorcising curses, but when he wasn't fighting demons, he retreated to his room, spending hours on end gaming. For him, there was no greater thrill than killing randoms online and watching his ranking go up. But just when he thought he had seen it all, he met you - the most maddening and infuriating troll he had ever come across in a game. Little did he know that your unlikely encounter would change the course of his life forever.
MASTERLIST
Tumblr media
Megumi popped open a can of beer and leaned over his desk to start up his monitor. As the LED lights flickered and the gears started to buzz, he closed all his curtains to make his room pitch black except for the blinding monitor screen.
An impatient sigh escaped his lips. He wished he were paid more so he could upgrade his setup. He had only bought this computer a couple of years ago, but it was already starting to lag.
He sat himself down, tapping his long fingers on the desk while waiting for the screen to load. He opened up Discord to see if any of his online friends were logged on.
Much to his dismay, none of his three friends was online that day.
He was contemplating which game to play, stuck between Rust, Call of Duty, or Stardew Valley. He ultimately decided to play Rust, a multiplayer survival game that involved hunting for resources, building up bases, and killing and raiding other players.
After what felt like an eternity, the server finally loaded and his character appeared on the screen. He quickly began running to his base to gear up before he gets killed.
"Hellooooo, FushiMegu!"
His eyebrow perked up at the female's voice calling his username and turned his character around to see who it was.
It was a naked player with the username Honeymommy98. She had nothing on her except for a wooden stick which meant he didn't have to worry about being killed as she was probably a newbie.
He decided to ignore her and continued to run to his base, soon noticing that the female player was still following him.
"Hey, wait up Fushi! Do you want to hear me sing?
Is she a troll? he thinks to himself, disgruntled at the fact that he was already getting harassed in his first game in months. He had just recovered from a brutal head injury after battling a first-grade curse, and this was the last thing he needed.
Couldn't he just play in peace? Life was already difficult enough dealing with Yuji and Gojo on a daily basis, he didn't need another troll annoying him in his downtime.
He pressed down on the volume button so that he could speak, "Fuck off," he said into his mic.
"Please, I've been killed eight times already! I just want to team up with someone-"
"I'm happy to make this your ninth time getting killed then," he replied stoically.
"That hurt my feelings!"
He didn't answer and kept going, a string of curses leaving his mouth when he realised that she was still following him. "I told you to stop following me you weirdo," this time his character throws several punches at the girl, causing her to bleed.
"You're going to make me cry, pleasee Fushimegu, you seem angry today, let me do a little performanc-"
Megumi grabbed a rock from the ground and smashed it against the player's head, causing her to die instantly in the process. He smirked at the dead character on the ground and continued his journey to his base which was located in the furthest corner of the map.
Once he entered his base which took him months to build, he began gearing his character up with a bulletproof vest and an M4 gun. His eyes drifted to the game chat screen that was popping up in the corner.
Honeymommy98: @ Fushimegu I'm coming for you, how dare you kill me like that when I'm talking to you!
Honeymommy98: fr im going to raid ur base watch ur back mf
Megumi scoffed at the ridiculousness of this person, wondering if she was like this with anyone who killed her. Seriously, it was as if she was playing just to solely pick fights with people.
Sugugu666: This monkey bitch still trolling the game? Thought you would give up after I killed you for the fifth time lol.
Your eyes widen in anger as you read the chat, watching the Sugugu666 guy trash talk you when you weren't even talking to him in the first place.
"See this is exactly why I stopped playing shit like this and only play Stardew Valley," you narrowed your eyes, murmuring under your breath while furiously typing, "Sugugu666... shut the fuck up. WHY the FUCK are you calling random people monkeys, sounds kinda fucking RACIST YOU FUCKER!"
Suddenly, you notice a group of players running towards you with knives in their hands. You decide to start running away. This is your ninth death, which means one more death, and the game will lock you out for 24 hours as your character has to recover.
You reached a secluded area and noticed a player in the distance. You start climbing a tree so you were hidden out of sight. With a smirk, you cracked your fingers and cleared your throat before pressing down the volume button to start singing.
"I guess I am a troll," you admit to yourself with a giggle. You put on your best Whitney Housten voice and began belting out I will always love you.
To be honest, you were only playing this game to annoy other players as it was hilarious to see men get triggered so easily. You had no interest in the main objective of the game and found it quite boring.
Megumi eyes twitch at the familiar voice he was hearing in the background.
"And I will always love youuuuu, ooohhhh, ohhh."
"Is she seriously singing right now?" he said to himself but continued to chop down the trees to build another item box, hoping that she'll eventually stop.
He can't bear listening to her terrible singing any longer, but no matter where he goes, he can hear her annoying voice in the background. "Where the fuck is she?" he mutters, spinning his screen around to see where the player was so that he could kill her again.
"I eeee I will always love youuu, Fushimeguuuuu."
Megumi looks up at the tree above him to see the player sitting on one of the branches. She waved and jump down. He points the gun at you, but before he can shoot, his own character starts bleeding out of nowhere.
"What the fuck?" he said under his breath, looking around to see who was shooting at him. He couldn't hear or see anyone else, other than that annoying girl.
But within a blink of an eye, four players start sprinting towards him, all of them geared with guns and wearing stealth boots that are incredibly hard to obtain unless you're at max level
"Oh fuck it's pro players," he swore and began shooting at them.
"Fuck, fuck, fuck, give me a gun, you can't do 4V1!"
Megumi knew she was right- even though she probably didn't know how to aim- any support would be better than none. He reluctantly dropped one of his guns, "You better fucking know how to shoot or I'm going to kill you after I kill them," he told the girl.
The player picked up the gun and surprisingly managed to shoot one of the opposition players.
"Good one," he mumbled, fingers flying across the keyboard with lightning speed as he focused on healing himself while taking cover, "Quick, stand behind this rock!"
The girl listened and ducked behind a boulder, merely dodging a bullet that would've been a sure kill.
"Wait can you give me some health? Kinda on a brink of death!"
Megumi's mouse hovered over the few health potions he had left. He let out an exasperated sigh and dropped the potion so she could take it.
"Thanks love, for this, I'll do a little solo performance for you later. Now watch me fuck these motherfuckers up!"
"Please don't," he answered, but before he could tell her what to do next, she was already in action.
Megumi watched in disbelief as the player sprang back up from the boulder, shooting with impeccable accuracy and executing maneuvers he had only seen with proper gamers. He was shocked to see how good she was as he was under the impression that she was a newbie.
"Damn," he spoke into his mic, looking down at the dead players. He bent down to take their guns and their boots, "You played this before?"
"No, I downloaded this for the first time, I'm amazing right? Tell me how good I am!"
He rolled his eyes. The arrogance of the player reminded him of a particular teacher he knew. "Hurry up and take your share," he said dismissively.
"This game's kinda ass," the player begun putting on the dead character's armour and gun, "It's so easy too."
"How are you so good at this game? Are you hacking?"
"Pfft! Don't accuse me of such sin! I use to be like super good at Call of duty and then I stopped playing because too many trolls, incels and hackers."
"You're a troll yourself," Megumi retorted with a snort.
"I know right?" the girl laughed, "Now that you know how overpowered I am, are you going to let me team up with you?"
"I'm going to have to ask my team first, they're not online today but I guess if I ever see you on this game again, I suppose you would be useful," he answered truthfully. As much as he hated to admit it, the girl was more skilled than him.
"Okay, well let me add you on discord then!"
"Why not just be friends on this game?" Megumi asked, he wasn't too keen on the idea as he had a feeling she'd be constantly spamming him on there.
"I don't know, I just wanna add you on there, is that okay? Or do you think you're too good for me after I saved your ass?"
"Well, you're kinda annoying."
"I see how it is, don't blame me when I raid your base later on then," she sighed dramatically.
His eyes flickered with annoyance, running his fingers through his dark hair.
"Is that a threat?"
"It's only a threat if you keep being an absolute cunt to me."
And so, just like that, Megumi was left with no other choice but to begrudgingly add her to the app.

okay, we're mixing it up a little here: which jjk character is mostly likely to watch
supernatural
riverdale
glee
dance moms
keeping up with the kardashians
our flag means death
my little pony
and since it's popular right now - stranger things
now, which jjk character would be the one to watch each show? [ex. like idk nanami watches spn and megumi watches riverdale... i actually don't agree with that, they were the first two i thought of lol]. chose some cursed shows, two popular ones for funsies, and one that i decided yes <3
[feel free to skip any you don't want to do lol]
YES okay let's go
supernatural: megumi. he's a destiel shipper i know he is. he'd die before he admits it but i hope he survives the manga so he can live until november 5 2020. i think it would break him.
riverdale: unironically? itadori. ironically? kugisaki. or so she claims.
glee: on one hand i think kirara watched this show and got overly attached to some of the characters even though they hated the show itself by the end. on the other hand. i think todo would be a funny answer here
dance moms: kugisaki & inumaki watch this together for the #drama
kardashians: ino. you decide if it's ironically or not.
ofmd: maki. am i just giving her the show i like most from this list bc she's my favorite? ..maybe. but also i know she would love jim. i know this in my soul. and she would also love spanish jackie and the widow who offered to kill stede i think
mlp: panda. idk i just get Vibes. i think mimiko and nanako would also like mlp but they would be partial to G3
stranger things: yuuta. pre-canon / vol 0 era yuuta is a will kinnie. he watched s2 where will was haunted by some shadow creature and decided "he's just like me fr"
